Man, don't be a jerk, cause when the music hits the funny hits, we are gonna take you down.
Stick around, make a sound, talk your downies, Dumb People Town.
Hey townies, welcome to a Friday episode of Dumb People Town.
Population you.
Population Martina.
Hey guys. Zach Martina.
How are you, buddy?
I am so great.
I feel like I'm at home.
Can I tell you that your last name always throws me for a little bit of a, it sounds
like your family was coming to Ellis Island.
Someone was like, what's your last name?
Your forefathers or your ancestors or whenever that happened, I guess it'd be like older
relatives, said Martinez.
And they were hearing Martinez,
and they're like, hang on a second,
and they were talking to someone else,
and then they forgot, and then they just kind of cut it off.
That is so wild.
That's the story my grandfather tells every Christmas.
That's exactly how it happened.
Is that how it happened?
That's exactly how it happened. I mean, he wasn't there.
Halfway through that lie, I believe.
That's the story.
We retell that story every Christmas
it changes a little bit
every year
it's the Christmas miracle
but it does allow us
to call you
Zach Martina
and Evra Tolova
which is something
that I've always
wanted to call you
and I'm so happy
that it finally happens
is that an ace?
did I just serve an ace
right here?
I mean I would say
like a king of diamonds
but I think it was pretty good
I was talking about
a tennis ace
whatever
and he was riffing
in the other direction
I love it
here's the great story
about Zach before we get into our story,
our one story this week, is that Randy and I went to Ann Arbor, Michigan,
and there was a bit of a communication breakdown between us and the club.
It happens.
We thought we couldn't bring a feature.
First we thought we could bring a feature,
then we never heard back as to whether or not we could,
so we assumed we couldn't.
We show up to the club.
We sit down 10 minutes before the show in Ann Arbor.
We're very excited for the show.
The guy who runs the club said, so who's your feature?
Where's your feature?
And we're like, you're kidding, right?
You tell us.
We'll call him.
What if one of you guys hosts, the other one features, and then you both come out to headline?
That's a good idea.
No repeat material. That's a good idea. I come out to headline. There's a good idea. No repeat material.
There's a good idea. I'm a cartoon character.
That's a good idea.
Say, hey, mucinics!
Hey, a mucus in your stomach.
Hey, I'm a lie.
I'm a lie. Wasn't that our old bit?
That was an old bit. Hey, a mucus in your stomach.
Oh!
And so we
said, we don't have a feature, because we thought we were, he's like, I thought you were bringing Nate. We were like, uh said we don't have a feature
because we thought
we were
he's like
I thought you were
bringing Nate
we were like
we didn't know
we never heard back
so we could
he's like
well there's a guy
out in the bar
and I was like
is this the beginning
of
oh yeah
this guy in the bar
is getting his confidence up
just drinking
this is how
Star is Born started
I know
there's a guy out in the bar
this is called
the Sklar is Born
I did my entire set in French the first time they were with me too you really really flipped it Sklar is born started. I know! There's a guy out in the bar. This is called the Sklar is born.
I did my entire set in French the first time
they were listening to it.
You're really,
really smart.
You're just on stage.
In the shallow
lobes.
That's been my time.
Those are my stories.
Yeah,
I came up before the movie.
They stole those bits
that time.
Why did they do that?
Why did they do that?
And now you can't do them anymore.
So he,
they said he's a huge fan of yours and he's a great comic and he can open up for you.
And we're like, can he do 30 minutes?
Because we didn't know.
And she's like, yeah, he's going to headline here.
And so we're like, all right, let's...
Because there is no host.
No.
This is the definition.
No, there usually is a host.
Usually is a host.
So this is the definition of rolling the dice.
We're putting like hosting and featuring on someone we don't know.
And he was fantastic. And we loved him. So good,
and the whole weekend we were just writing bits
and writing on his bits, and it
just was a blast. The bit I love,
I'm gonna make him do this little bit, just
a little piece of it. So the bit was, the bit
that we fell in love over.
The original bit was,
so I lost my dog, and the crowd
goes, aww. I found him. Yeah! Great. dog. And the crowd goes, aw.
I found him.
Yay.
Great.
Mangled on the side of the road.
Aw.
I know.
I tried to swerve.
Aw.
Yay.
And so that was the original bit.
I tried to swerve, right?
I know I tried to swerve.
But then.
And it turned to like three minutes.
We're like, can you keep going?
You can keep going.
So now there's this whole bit about the dog having bit a kid and I did what I had to do.
But the kid was actually the last name of the postal worker he bit.
And he delivered chocolate, but also artisanal soap.
Like there's this.
It just keeps turning the audience.
Precisely obscured.
The crowd is very confused when it's over.
I love it.
And that's the way we want to put them in.
Because the world, maybe they're confused.
Maybe they're just dumb. The world is getting dumber. We know this.
And the only way to fight back is comedy. Daniel,
let's get into a story. We've got Zach Martina
here. Welcome, sir.
Thank you for having me, fellas. This was sent in
to me by using
hashtag Dumb People Town and
at me, at Daniel Van Kirk.
Do both of those things.
By Let's Not Do N at yeah, no, let's not.
This is great.
This person is like, yeah, let's not do names.
That Twitter handle makes me think that this is about them.
Yeah, right.
Yes.
To me, I feel like they want to do names.
Yeah.
Badly.
Let's do names.
Livingston, which I don't know.
Ron?
I guess.
I don't know.
This takes place in Ron Livingston.
It's in New Jersey.
It's a movie called Inner Space.
Oh, why don't they remake Inner Space?
With Martin Short?
Yeah, and Dennis Quaid.
Yeah, that's a good one.
They should do it with Randy Quaid, and he's like on the run.
Yeah, I mean, it's a documentary.
I bet Randy Quaid thinks there's a little
man injected inside of him right now.
Or the Harvey Weinstein story in her space.
That's a great one.
At Daniel Van Curve.
That'll get an R rating for sure.
Okay, a local man is
in custody after reportedly walking
into First National Bank's downtown
location at 11.36
a.m. I'm so proud that finally we have a story where they don't say about.
They know what time it happened, and they're telling us.
At approximately 11.36.
They went to the security camera footage.
We have it.
It's there.
Let's timestamp this.
Walked in at 11.36 a.m. Monday and passed a note to a teller demanding money.
Now.
It's old school, man.
For most people robbing a bank, this would be the most exciting part of their day, right?
Yeah.
The journey that this man's about to go on and the people he brings in.
I can't wait.
It's like a Coen Brothers movie.
There's a cast of characters.
Thomas.
Stuart.
Thomas Stuart.
Please tell me.
Holcomb.
What did you want? What did you want?
I wanted a third first name Michael
Thomas Stewart Johns
Thomas Stewart Jeffrey
Have you ever met a first name Johns?
No
I know there's been a Wells
Wells Fargo
Johns Hopkins.
Yeah, but that's a university.
Johns.
Two people's last names.
Ruth's Chris.
See, there you go again.
Ruth's Chris.
That's her name.
Ruth's Chris.
There was a Golden Globe Ruth's Chris joke.
I know.
There was a Golden Globe Ruth's Chris joke.
Thomas Stuart Holcomb of Livingston.
Yeah.
The great thing is when we don't,
when we don't even know the city and we don't know the state,
we can always rely on townies to tell us exactly.
That's in New Jersey.
So wait, my town.
He's from the town where he's robbing the thing.
So people probably know him.
Sure.
We take from the people we love the most.
It does sound like a small town.
Yeah.
He probably watched half of the town and didn't realize.
Even they drove across the river.
Even they left their confines.
That's the bridge in Boston.
He gets to the middle.
Well, that's all I need to see.
I got it.
Shut down.
He just watches Ham's part where he goes, I'll tell you who it is.
It's not fucking a wrong crew.
That's who they are.
My favorite part of the town.
That and when Affleck asked Renner to borrow a car and help him do something,
he can never ask him about it again.
We're going to hurt some people. It's a great scene.
Okay.
Thomas Stuart Holcomb, TSH.
T-shish, if you're nasty.
T-sh.
Of Livingston, was being booked
into the Polk County Jail at press time after
attempting what was
described as a unique
getaway.
Oh, boy.
I love it.
Like, do you wonder right now if a horse is involved?
Unicycle.
Unicycle juggling.
I'm hoping Teen Wolf surfing.
I'm on top of the car.
I'm on top.
Go, go.
Styles, make it happen.
Fucking loved Styles. I would love to have seen him try and go away with like fly away with a bunch of balloons.
Yeah, that's good too.
End of Mary Poppins Returns.
What do you think Stiles is doing right now?
And if any townie is like, I know Livingston.
I don't know Stiles.
Teen Wolf, get on board.
Teen Wolf, get on board.
It's classic.
What do you think Stiles is up to?
I don't know.
But the guy who played Pee-wee's, you know, Francis in Pee-wee's Big Adventure.
Laurence Fishburne.
Oh, yeah, that guy?
Yeah.
Yeah, Francis.
He played on the basketball team. And he was. You're right. They passed him off, A, as a basketballWee's Big Adventure. He played on the basketball team.
You're right!
They passed him off, A, as a basketball player.
He's so sweaty.
They passed him off, A, as a basketball player.
And B, as a high school kid.
He was more believable as a tiny child in Pee-Wee's Big Adventure.
That's right.
Teen Wolf, Court McCown.
Oh, yeah.
Court McCown and Teen Wolf.
Teen Wolf, they didn't clear the...
I'm sorry, are you calling it Woof?
Teen Wolf.
I thought you called it Teen Wolf.
Teen Wolf.
Woof.
Yeah, about a very adorable canine.
It's got a year bowl.
About a teenage woofer.
Teen Wolf.
People don't know.
They didn't clear the whole frame.
And in the final, when they win the championship,
someone scrolls across the audience cheering the fans.
Someone takes their dick out and starts helicoptering it.
No.
Yes.
Yes. No.
Yes.
It's still in the cut.
Is it a ghost dick?
Like three men and a baby. Yeah, three men and a baby.
You see the shotgun.
You see the shotgun leaning against the window and then it's a ghost kid with no face.
It's not even that.
It's a cardboard cutout of Ted Danson, I think.
No, it's not.
It's a cardboard cutout.
It has a bowl cut.
No.
It's a cardboard cutout of the kid who died in the apartment.
Come on.
Plain milk's fine.
Go ahead.
Officers were gathering for a pre-holiday lunch.
I mean, come on.
Pre-holiday.
Guys, we got our holiday lunch.
It's Arbor Day.
We got our pre-holiday lunch.
Who's bringing to the pre-holiday lunch?
Right.
Officers were gathering for a pre-
I'll bring the Hawaiian rolls.
Okay, the both.
God dang, I love those rolls.
Both. They're sweet and chewy. I'll bring the Hawaiian rolls. Okay, the both. God damn, I love those. The both.
They're sweet and chewy.
I'll tell you what, nobody better interrupt this lunch.
I've been looking forward to it all year long.
It's our pre-holiday lunch.
Listen to Ferguson.
You know what I do?
I take those Hawaiian rolls and put a little ham and a little green bean casserole.
What I do.
I have to have seven of them.
What I do is I put the barbecue sauce on it first.
Hey, I'm a Hawaiian roll.
I like to get it a little hard.
I like to crunch it a little bit.
Really?
And soft in the middle.
I know what he's talking about.
These guys.
I'm Josh Anamire's mom.
Soft in the middle, Josh.
Officers were gathering for a pre-holiday lunch meeting at the department and were able
to respond quickly to the bank, which was located less than 300 feet away from the police
station.
If you're going to rob any bank-
That's not the one.
That's not the one.
And you're from this town.
That should not be a shock to you.
I didn't know it was there.
I didn't know.
The suspect fled on foot with some witnesses reporting he headed west when he left the bank.
That's the other thing. Don't rob in a town
where everybody says where you are.
And probably went to school with you.
Jeff's going over there. What's his name?
I forget his name. Oh, you're talking about Tommy?
He should be called Thomas now. Don't rob
in that town. Every time Tommy
would talk to us on High Call, we'd just be like,
Let's get out of here.
Go rob a bank, Tommy.
The suspect played on foot. People said he
headed west. Quote, we didn't know
if he had a vehicle nearby,
so we also sent
units to other banks
in the city, says
Officer Parrish. I love that they thought
he had more of a plan than that.
This guy is a dummy.
He's going to hit more banks on foot or just more banks in one time. Rochelle only has I thought he had more of a plan than that. This guy is a dummy. Let's not give him too much credit.
He's going to hit more banks on foot or just more banks in one time.
Rochelle only has three banks.
A bank robbing 5K, though, Dan.
A bank robbing 5K.
That would be really cool.
I'd sign up for that.
Do you get a medal?
Does everybody get a medal?
Yes.
Bank security cameras captured detailed photos of the suspect,
and moments after LPD posted
the photo online, a jailer identified Holcomb.
That's how you know you're lying.
A jailer?
Tell me!
He's like, oh, yeah, TSA?
A jailer?
Who he later identified Holcomb, who has been booked into Polk County Jail at least four
times this year.
Oh, okay.
For the record, I got this in November,
so it's not like he's crushing 2019.
No, but I knew. New year, new you.
That's what I was hoping. New year, new you.
Where it was. After leaving the bank,
the suspect turned south into the shopping
center located across the street
from the bank. Never again. Gotta give this guy
an exit strategy. So far, he has robbed
a bank in a town, 300 feet from
the cops, took off running
in front of witnesses, and then
decided to go into a shopping center.
Because he had the money to spend.
Close yourself off. You're right.
You're actually right. He went straight to Tape World.
Burning a hole in his canvas bag.
We got your scotch, we got your
batteries, we got your masking.
Oh, that kind of tape world?
I would say like audio tapes.
But I like tape world.
I thought you meant worms.
We got duct tape.
What do you need?
What do you need?
They should do it all.
Ticket tape.
Double-sided.
Workers at a home health agency contacted police and said he had shed clothing in the parking lot.
Now, if he's across the street.
Right.
So he's made a triangle here because I imagine we've got the bank and across the street is the parking lot. Now, if he's across the street, so he's
made a triangle here, because I imagine we've got the bank,
and across the street is the shopping center, and then
over there is the mall. There's the police station.
If he
has gone across
the street, and he's changing clothes,
these people couldn't know that he
just robbed a bank. They're just calling the cops.
So now you've decided to rob a bank
and do something else suspicious.
That's what people call the cops on, changing clothes.
He's getting charged with
bank robbery and streaking and public
indecency. Yes.
He's like, there aren't enough things
on this crap sheet. Clothes littering.
As investigators collected
evidence and spoke to witnesses there,
they received additional
information that the man,
that would be Thomas
Stuart Holcomb,
they had additional information that the
man had been in the subway
sandwich shop on South Washington
where he caught a cab.
So he goes, now he
goes into the shopping center, changes his clothes
in the parking lot, then goes into a Subway restaurant.
What if his order was the same order as my youngest daughter?
You ready for this next time?
Have you ever taken your kids to Subway and then watched them order?
Manny believes you'll learn new things.
They order something that you've never seen them eat in their entire life.
Like I'll have a tuna with spinach and lettuce on top of it and put some Italian dressing.
I'm like, who the fuck?
What the fuck?
Who are you?
Are you about to rob a bank?
Can you lay a little bit extra of that tuna juice on there too? I like it soft. I didn like, who the fuck? What the fuck? Who are you? Are you about to rob a bank? Can you lay a little bit extra
of that tuna juice on there too?
What?
I like it soft.
I didn't even know you ate tuna.
Who are you?
Do you want a wall?
What is happening?
Yeah, I thought I didn't
even know you anymore.
No, we're not going to give.
It's going to be a combination
of fencing and censors.
Anyway, go ahead.
So the guy goes into Subway
and then gets a cab, right?
I did not embellish this. This is the next sentence. This is insane. sensors. So the guy goes into Subway and then gets a cab, right?
I did not embellish this. This is the next sentence. This is insane.
Subway sandwich artist, Terry King.
No, no, no. Dan, you wrote that.
And the reporter's like,
I'm just going to write that you work at Subway.
I'll give you the quote if you give me the credit
I do.
Thank you.
You just write an employee at the
sandwich said one eyewitness. I do. Thank you. You just write an employee at the sandwich purveyor.
Said one eyewitness.
Nope.
I'm sorry.
Would you call Michelangelo just an employee of the Sistine Chapel?
He was an artist.
That's like, ma'am, I could, actually.
He was an artist.
He was a contract artist.
He had a 1099.
He was an artist.
The first 1099 on record.
I'm just going to need to know your social, Michelangelo.
It's like 01.
Yeah, 01.
006.
There's five other people.
It was a long-ass line.
He bitched about that line.
Subway sandwich artist Terry King said, which is the perfect name.
Terry King.
Terry King.
You had one of them Terry King specials.
No, no.
Listen, you can only get that in Livingston.
Listen, you give Terry King a look, he going to give you extra meatball.
He going to give you extra meatball.
I picked up female Terry.
That's what I love about Terry.
Everybody can choose their own adventure on who it is.
It's like the Baldergash or whatever that thing is.
Yeah, Bandersnatch.
Bandersnatch.
A little pro tip for everybody. I'm not going to tell you why that thing is. Yeah, Bandersnatch. A little pro tip for everybody.
I'm not going to tell you why, but if you're watching Bandersnatch, pick up the family photo twice.
That's all I'm going to tell you.
That's all I'm going to tell you.
That's such a good tip.
That's all I'm going to tell you.
Bandersnatch.
All I'm going to tell you, pick up the family photo twice.
Do you want me to Bandersnatch it twice?
Yeah.
It's going to take up some of my time in Los Angeles now.
You know it is.
I don't need this stuff. It's worth it. Pick snatch it twice? Yeah. It's going to take up some of my time in Los Angeles now. You know it is. I don't need this song.
It's worth it.
Pick it up twice.
Okay.
Subway sandwich artist Terry King said,
Hocum, ordered.
Ready for this?
What does a man who just shed his clothes in a parking lot...
I'm going to go with my oldest daughter's order.
A whopper.
Sir, we do not serve those here.
We do not, sir.
What if I told you I had a vault's worth of money?
I'll make a waffle. You make me a falafel,
motherfucker. It's a matter of principle, sir.
I'm an artist, okay?
You can't tell me. I'll take a leader.
I'm sorry, would you ask Michelangelo to sculpt
a cola? I don't have leaders.
Okay, Subway sandwich artist Terry King
said Holcomb ordered a
dozen cookies and a chicken
bacon ranch sandwich.
Dude.
I don't know, Thomas, but that is on brand.
That is a great.
Chicken bacon ranch is, I'm developing respect for him.
That's a meal worthy of celebration.
He's proud of something he just did.
12 cookies.
It's time to cut loose.
Really quick.
I have to sidestep here to ask.
Did you really get dominoes at that birthday party?
Yeah.
100%. It was the first time we've recorded since you posted
that Instagram. People should go back and check
out that Sklar Brothers Instagram because you held up
some artisanal pizza and you could tell
in the comments, you literally
that was a litmus test for who's a fan.
Who's a fan of the show because a lot of people were like pizza
pizza pizza pizza pizza and we're like no.
Then everyone's like dominoes dominoes
dominoes dominoes. You listen to the podcast.
It's all in the presentation.
Jay went to a kid's birthday party one time.
Oh, I know.
And you know.
Yeah.
Logic was the first comment.
And he was like, Domino's, Jigga?
I was like, yeah.
And you know what?
There is something.
And I have a newfound respect for Domino's.
The cheese-filled bread.
Okay, stop, stop, stop.
Let's take a break and then we'll finish up this story
and you can find out what the hell Thomas did.
After making this order.
After making this order.
Because the journey's not over.
Journey's not over.
We have a little more with Zach Martino right after this.
Stick around.
Make a sound.
There's more Domino's in people town.
All right, Dan,
welcome back.
All right.
Okay, ready?
Yes.
So he orders
a chicken bacon ranch sandwich
and washes it down
with a dozen cookies.
Then he asked
if there was
a cab company nearby.
Great idea.
By the way,
the cab company
doesn't have to always
be so nearby.
Yeah.
It's almost like when a guy shouts into a microphone.
Yes.
Like, the microphone is going to amplify your voice.
Right.
Cab companies have cars so they can drive to you even from small distances.
The microphone is a tool.
But he needed to make a quick getaway.
I get that.
He couldn't be waiting.
Yeah, that's true.
All right.
Terry says, we told him yes, and our manager Googled their phone number.
About five minutes later, he left.
So for as bad as he is about picking location to rob banks, he's found the nicest Subway restaurant in the country.
They're angling for a five-star Yelp.
They want people coming in.
They help him find a cab.
So now they're aiding and abetting.
They're very kind.
They open the door for him.
They're just the kindest people in the world.
Terry King says he behaved pretty much like any other customer, but he did appear to be high.
Right.
So pretty much like any other customer.
I was going to say he was shaking and nervous.
Oh, really?
You appear to be high?
12 chocolate chip cookies, please.
I checked the hunt.
What did I order?
Go ahead.
Hit it.
Before the chicken bacon ranch.
Yeah, cookies first and then ranch.
I'm like, who are you, my children?
It's a cookie tizer.
I feel like Thomas walked in, placed his order as he did without breaking stride on his way to the bathroom.
Yeah, exactly.
I want 12 cookies and a chicken baked ranch.
Did not break stride.
Right to the bathroom.
Just a post bank rob and dump.
Took off another layer of clothes.
And he didn't even say, I want.
He just walked.
He was like, 12 cookies and a chicken baked ranch.
Right, right. I like to think this is
his Subway though, too. Like, they just knew
that, oh, hey, there's Tom. We know we gotta get him.
As the door closes, Terry's like,
toast it!
Toast it.
Do one toast and one not.
I checked
the $100 bill he paid
with because we've been getting a lot of
fake bills lately.
I love that that's happening now in Subway.
You guys did the Subway scam?
Yeah, you print out a $100 bill and then you
order 12 cookies and get the fart out of it.
They don't know what money's about.
12 cookies and a footlong or 20 footlong.
Just get them all. He was really nervous when I
was looking closely at the bill, which
can only mean that Thomas is dumb
in one of two ways. He's either
so dumb that he thinks
the bill he just got from a bank would
be fake. Not possible. Or
he's even more dumb than that, and
he thinks that by looking at this $100 bill,
they're going to be able to tell he just got
robbed. Or he's paying with
a paint-soaked bill. The bomb went off.
Ignore that, though.
You gotta look around the ink.
Yeah, it's 100.
Sergeant.
Great name.
Let's hear it.
Sergeant Ronnie Bogani.
I would call him Ronnie Bogani.
Is it?
Ronnie Bogani?
B-O-G-A-N-Y.
Yeah, Ronnie Bogani.
Hey, look, I don't want all this Ronnie Bogani going on over here.
Tommy Holcomb, Ronnie Bogani, best friends in high school, had a bit of a falling apart,
and this is the reunion.
Ronnie Bogani was named halfway through Banana Fofana.
Banana Fana Fofana.
Someone was singing that while the doctor was asking.
Ronnie, Ronnie Bogani, Banana Fana Fofana.
It really is it.
The dad's like, oh, I like that.
I like that very much.
Wait a minute, Ronnie, Ronnie.
Wait, we've already got the Boganee.
But doctor, your last name is Smith.
I like Boganee.
I was going to name him David.
Sir, I don't think this is a good idea.
Sir, please call me Donnie.
Donnie, Donnie, Boganee, banana, banana, Boganee.
Sergeant Ronnie Boganee.
I know. That might make it into our TV show. Ronnie Bogani. Na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na- to Indian Springs. A cab company dispatcher contacted the driver and told him to remain on US 190. By that time, so now
the cab driver's driving. He's this
guy's getaway from the subway after changing
his clothes in the parking lot. How do they tell him?
It can't be over a radio, right? I know.
It's got to be a cell phone. Maybe,
but the guy's not going to know,
hey, this has got to be confidential. They call the cab driver,
you got your oversized Bluetooth in?
Oh, of course.
Your 1997 oversized Bluetooth?
You got that in?
Contact driver told him to remain on 190.
By that time, cab driver Kevin Brown
said he could see a patrol vehicle behind him.
He followed directions from LPD
not to pull over until the officers
activated the red and blue lights.
Which means for a
while, Thomas sat in his car with a cop car behind him without even knowing it.
Well, he's finishing up that meal.
Exactly.
He's got a lot of cookies to get to.
12 cookies.
You know what I was saying as I was watching NFL football, like playoff football?
Cab drivers, Uber drivers, Lyft drivers should be like good NFL referees.
You just hardly know they're there.
Yes.
You just want to be like, were they even in that?
Yes.
Anytime you notice them at all, that means something's wrong.
Yep.
So this guy's trying to just blend in with the car, knowing what he knows, and that's a lot of pressure on this cab driver.
And that's a lot of pressure on this cab driver.
Well, by this time, Brown, that's Kevin, I believe, said they were headed back toward Livingston after his passenger had balked at the high prices at the liquor store they visited in the Midway community.
So, which means he got in the cab, then went to a liquor store.
He has hundreds of dollars. At least hundreds of dollars.
And was like, I'm not paying that for Canadian Club.
What kind of liquor are you washing down at Chicken Bacon Ranch?. And was like, I'm not paying that for Canadian Club. What kind of liquor
are you washing down
at Chicken Bacon Ranch
and it was like a rum chata?
You give me a Canadian Club
and ginger ale.
Okay.
I love a good rum chata.
Bombay Sapphire.
Yeah.
Maybe a Grey Goose.
It feels like Jaeger.
Yeah, or Mad Dog 2020.
Mad Dog.
How much is your
Everclear fuck?
I'll make that
at home in the tub.
You got Boone's Farm.
When the cab reached Tom Cummings Road,
Bogani activated emergency lights
and the driver stepped out of the cab.
I hope at that point,
Thomas Holcomb was like,
what?
Is Tom Cummings another character
or is that the name of the road?
Oh, that's interesting.
Yep.
Meet you on Tom Cummings.
C-U-M-M-I-N-G-S if you're nasty. Are you Cummings?
Holcomb was
taken into custody without incident and is being charged
with aggravated robbery, first degree felony
according to a statement by detentive
detective Leon Middleton.
Leon Middleton. I know. Another one.
I know. Leon Middleton.
I want a copy of the Livingston phone book.
Just to go through.
Livingston characters are unbelievable.
Leon Middleton and Ronnie Begani, I mean, that is just a great one-two punch. Middleton and Begani could be the new Rizzoli and Isles.
We always say that.
Oh, Rizzoli and Isles is the new Middleton and Begani.
Middleton and Begani sounds like an Ellis Island Rizzoli and Isles.
They just came over.
They just came back.
Also, we have other great combos in this story.
King and Cummings.
King and Cummings.
The Cummings and Kings. The Cummings of Kings.ings. King and Cummings. The Cummings and Kings.
The Cummings of Kings.
That's Game of Thrones Season 6.
The Cummings of Kings.
An undisclosed amount of cash was recovered from the suspect when he was taken into custody.
No weapon was located.
King said an investigator took video from their store security system as well as the $100 bill.
I'm going to show you a picture.
Please try to keep your reactions to less than three minutes because we've already gone long.

Stuart Holcomb? fun leaves marks in life. Living hard, you'll pay the price. Who is
gonna get it right?
Guess the age.
Guess the age.
You are our guest, Zach. You can go first,
Tig, or third. I'm gonna go
Tig. Okay. Jason? Alright, Jason or Randy?
Jason? Well, you know, in
Cheap Seats, there was an old joke we made when a guy's
hair was blonde and his beard
was dark. We said,
does the carpet match the drapes?
And I would answer, Jay, the drapes don't
match the drapes.
One drape is one color.
This guy's 24 years old.
24? Go ahead.
I'm going with
36 because that hair,
his whole crime, it makes it seem like he's
trying to feel something, trying to feel a certain youth. I'm saying
36. He's got a full head of hair.
I think he's 29. 29? Yep. Okay.
So Randy says? 29, there's no gray in his
beard and his hair is a full
thick head of hair that he has
hydroperoxide or whatever he's
No, that's natural.
Whatever products he's put in, if like
I put it. He really loves Fight Club.
He loves Fight Club.
That's his favorite movie.
That's Sunning.
I am Jack's failed robbery.
If I put that in my hair, all my hair would fall out.
You're right.
If I put that in my hair, I would have less hair than you, Dan.
What did you say, 29?
29, 36.
I'm going 36.
Zach says 36.
Jay says 24.
24?
One of you. One of you is- All three of you are not exactly right. I'm going 36. Zach says 36. Jay says 24. 24? One of you.

Thomas Stewart Holcomb.
The man who changed in a parking lot, robbed a bank next to a police station,
went to a liquor store with hundreds of dollars.
Ordered from Subway, got a cab.
Got caught by a cab that was given to him by a Subway
after eating a dozen cookies and a bacon ranch whatever sandwich.
I kind of love them.
By the way, cabbie turns you in.
Uber, Lyft, harder to get in touch with.
So if you're robbing a bank, let's use it.
How understanding was that cab driver in that he let him eat in the car?
Yeah, of course.
Already he's like a nice guy.
I will also say when you get to the Facebook page, he does kind of look like a Jake Busey character.
Uh-huh.
Here we go.
He is 34 years old.
Oh, wow.

Walks in and walks it off.
