People Going Crazy

[00:00:00] Speaker A: Alrighty. Alrighty everybody. Another week of the human podcast. And it has been a weird ass week again, you know, like it normally is. But. But nothing with me but with people setting fires. You know, let's just jump right into this whole fire story because I, I saw this just the other day over in Ontario, California. This dude, Carm Shamel. Abdul. Abdul Kareem. Yeah, I had to like fucking look it up on how to say his name. A 29 year old resident of Highland is being, you know, held without bail after being booked on multiple felony accounts. And he literally posted the video of him setting all these fires. And he was just sitting there like, if all you had to do was pay us enough to live, that's all you had to do, pay us enough to live. And it's like, yeah, you took that job, dipshit. You know, and I don't feel bad at least too bad for people that, you know, don't make enough money. Get. Get a skill [00:01:28] Speaker B: to get a skill. It's called arson. [00:01:32] Speaker A: I mean, he's getting three hots in a cot now and he gets a free boyfriend straight up. And my, my wife was all about this dude. [00:01:41] Speaker B: I wasn't. Okay, I'm like slightly about this dude. I'm here for the cat and mouse. I'm here for the fact that Nobody died. And three. It's fucking paper. I'm sorry. It burned. [00:01:51] Speaker A: It was $500 million worth of paper. [00:01:56] Speaker B: Money's made out of paper. [00:01:58] Speaker A: Okay. [00:01:58] Speaker B: Money is like, what, it's mostly cotton now, isn't it? [00:02:01] Speaker A: Money is an imaginary thing used to control people. [00:02:04] Speaker B: See this, this 100% validates my stance. [00:02:08] Speaker A: But you know, that, that's neither here nor there. Like, you know, in the, you know, fallout series, they use bottle caps to control people. They need something to control people. [00:02:18] Speaker B: Did the bottle caps click? [00:02:21] Speaker A: I mean, in the series, I'm sure the top hap. [00:02:26] Speaker B: The half tack feedback is important. [00:02:29] Speaker A: Yeah. But I'm your host, Alex Truck. We got my wife, not the truck. And then we got Courtney, you know. Yep, I'm here after all of our, you know, dumbass. Our. Our technical difficulties are done. But yeah, this dude went in to his job, started setting fires, and they don't have a sprinkler system, I don't think. At least not a good enough one. And he has set some fires. The firefighters came, started, you know, putting out the fires and he's running around adding more fires, you know, and so they're like, oh shit, there's more fires over here. And he comes back and sets more fires and the entire fucking thing burnt to the ground. And if I was one of this guy's co workers that just lost their fucking job because, you know, my dumbass coworker went and burnt down my entire warehouse, oh, I'd get myself locked up with him and then kill him. It's like, you know, you're, you know, one of these people that, you know is in a tough ass spot having to work this shit job. And now you don't even have this shit job to work. And I'm sure there's like a thousand people in that warehouse that all just is like, hey, guess what? You all lost your job due to this guy. Good luck. Bye. And they might get, you know, some unemployment, but I'm sure not much. Definitely not enough to, you know, take care of. And so I'm like, oh, cool, that that's the only fire that happened in Ontario. Nope. Ontario Mills Mall, there was another fire. It was at like a pants store. So it's, you know, it might be AI, Liar, liar, pants on fire, and that'd be hilarious. And it seems like, let's see what was. It was true religion brand jeans. And I don't know who hates jeans as much, you know, I wear slacks. So, you know, and I, I never buy pants full price. But apparently someone set a fire there too. And these crazy motherfuckers need to just knock it off because, you know, now you're gonna see copycats going everywhere. And like, you know what? My job doesn't pay me enough. And then set fire and then, you know, end up killing somebody. [00:05:13] Speaker B: Yep, [00:05:15] Speaker C: that's how people are. [00:05:20] Speaker A: I mean, like, for me, I can't really do that. I can't be like, I'm setting fire to my truck, you know, Then I'll be like out in the middle of nowhere and be like, boss, yeah, I burnt down the truck and yeah, I'm out here in the middle of nowhere. It was meant to be a big old you, but I didn't think it all the way through. Can you send someone to come pick me up and be like, no, you're fired. You. [00:05:44] Speaker B: Yep. [00:05:51] Speaker A: I. I know, right? Like, like you, you can't set nothing on fire. You, you work at home? [00:05:59] Speaker B: Nope. [00:05:59] Speaker A: What are you gonna do? Set your dad on fire? [00:06:02] Speaker C: No. [00:06:07] Speaker A: All you have to do is like set like the dinner on fire. [00:06:10] Speaker C: No. Right? Then you can't eat it because he can't wear his dentures. They don't fit. Right. [00:06:18] Speaker A: That has dentures? [00:06:21] Speaker C: Yeah. All his teeth are gone. [00:06:24] Speaker A: I never noticed I, I had, I had a friend that was missing fingers off of his hand that, and you didn't notice. Didn't notice for like six months. I had like, been over to his hand, been over to his house, you know, everything, hung out with them. And men just are not observant. Like, we don't know. Like, I, I, I couldn't tell you. Most of my friends birthdays, no idea. Wow. I don't even know how old they are. Like, I think you're like one of the four people who I know, you know, whose birth you know your birthday. And ah, like, like that, that, that, like, people hate on men for this, but it's like, yeah, it's just kind of how we are, you know? Why, why do more people need to, you know, know someone's birthday? Facebook and women will always know someone's birthday. [00:07:40] Speaker C: Yeah. [00:07:45] Speaker B: Yep. [00:07:47] Speaker A: Like, I know your birthday. [00:07:48] Speaker C: Put the right, [00:07:55] Speaker A: I mean, like, see here, here's what I do is like I, I don't know everyone's birthday. So the second I find out someone's birthday, I put it in my phone and I figured, like, that's a great way to get it done is I, like go into my phone and I put in, you know, birthday, you know, so and so's birthday. Like my friend Reese, his birthday is on Monday. I don't know if I'm going to do anything for him. I, I might, you know, text him and be like, happy birthday and that. Like, that's it. Like, that, that's what you get, like when you, you get old. It's like you, you get a pat on the back, you know, Good job. You're another year older. Congratulations. You made it. [00:08:43] Speaker C: Yep. [00:08:46] Speaker A: You okay back there, babe? [00:08:48] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:08:48] Speaker A: Just making sure you're not asleep. [00:08:50] Speaker B: No, sorry. I'm three beers in and I'm a lot more drunk than I thought I was going to be. [00:08:57] Speaker C: Oh, you dingle. [00:08:59] Speaker B: Like, it's been a while since I drank that much. [00:09:02] Speaker A: Here's the thing, like, as a dude, I can drink three beards and feel nothing. And I'm like, yeah, cool. And like, I have like, you know, take continuous shots in order to feel something. And like after like seven shots, I'm like, all right, I got a nice buzz going that'll last for like 30 minutes and it'll go away. And I, I, I feel like Captain America when I drink alcohol. [00:09:29] Speaker B: Is that good or bad? [00:09:31] Speaker A: It's terrible. [00:09:34] Speaker C: He's probably dumb. [00:09:37] Speaker A: I'm dumb. [00:09:38] Speaker C: Yeah, you probably are. [00:09:41] Speaker A: I'm like, just drinking water, thinking it's Alcohol back. [00:09:44] Speaker C: Yep. [00:09:45] Speaker A: Give him another water shot. [00:09:46] Speaker C: Probably what you do. [00:09:48] Speaker A: Except I drink at home. [00:09:52] Speaker C: Sure. [00:09:56] Speaker B: Like, drink at bars when you're at the hotel? [00:10:00] Speaker A: I do, yes. But I rarely ever get drunk. [00:10:06] Speaker B: More's a pity. [00:10:09] Speaker A: Well, in order to get drunk, it cost a bunch of fucking money. And so I'm like, do I want to spend $80 to get drunk or, you know, spend $7 and just, you know, have a nice little couple beers and just hang out. And, you know, it's like, I'd rather just, you know, have a couple beers, hang out with friends. I'm not gonna get drunk. You know, I did the whole, you know, North Dakota thing. So now I have, you know, a insane tolerance to alcohol. You know, my liver, like, anytime I, like, drink a fuckload, it's like, I didn't hear no bell and just go for it. [00:11:01] Speaker B: No bell. [00:11:03] Speaker A: It's a. It's a Rocky. Rocky reference. Yeah. Yeah. He's getting the beaten out of him. [00:11:09] Speaker B: I have seen none of those movies. [00:11:10] Speaker A: You've never seen Rocky? [00:11:12] Speaker B: No, I've never seen Rocky. [00:11:13] Speaker A: I didn't hear no bell. I don't think you'd like the movie anyway. It's fine, really. You know, same thing with, like, Kickboxer. I don't think she would like kickboxer either. Have you seen Kickboxer? [00:11:27] Speaker C: Not kick. I don't think so. [00:11:29] Speaker A: Oh, it's such a good fucking movie. [00:11:31] Speaker B: I've seen Karate Kid. Does that count now? Okay, because I didn't even like that. [00:11:35] Speaker A: But, like, at the very end, like, Van Damme is, like, going against, like, the big fucking tough dude with, like, the crazy ponytail, and they, like, dip their hand. Like, they wrap their hands with rope and. And dip it in glass. So, like, when they punch, it, like, starts to bleed. And he's like, you know, take these off. He, like, takes off, like, the. You know, the glass wraps and he, like, starts whooping on this fucking dude out of nowhere. The most unbelievable ending of a movie. [00:12:07] Speaker B: Why do you take off the glass? Doesn't it make his punch less effective? [00:12:12] Speaker A: It was, like, restricting him or something like that. It's been a long time since I've seen it clearly. Kickboxer movie. Kickboxer movie. [00:12:24] Speaker B: I thought we were still talking about the first one. [00:12:28] Speaker A: Is. It's having such a tough time right now. [00:12:32] Speaker B: Is the Internet down? [00:12:34] Speaker A: God, I hope not. I'm still. I still see Courtney on the screen. [00:12:38] Speaker C: Yep, I'm here. [00:12:39] Speaker B: My bestie. [00:12:41] Speaker C: I'm just trying to find the freaking picture. When dad got his teeth removed. I have I have a picture. [00:12:48] Speaker A: You have a picture of it? Was he, like, down in Mexico? And then, like, it's just some Mexican dude with a hammer just like. Yeah, there we go. [00:12:56] Speaker C: No, but quite honestly, all they did was just numb him. They didn't even put him under. And, like, he got. They ripped them all out, basically. It was really weird. And the weird thing is, like, some of the plaque from his teeth ended up staying. So during the healing process, it actually, like, healed. And then a ton of plaque ended up working through his gums. [00:13:24] Speaker B: They didn't. They didn't scale the teeth off before they extracted them. [00:13:29] Speaker C: Yeah. [00:13:30] Speaker B: What the fuck? [00:13:32] Speaker C: Yeah. [00:13:33] Speaker B: That's fucking crazy. [00:13:36] Speaker C: Yeah, right? [00:13:37] Speaker B: What the fuck? [00:13:40] Speaker A: Yeah, whatever. [00:13:41] Speaker B: Like, you at least get the rocks off before you pull the teeth. [00:13:45] Speaker C: Yeah, maybe I can find it. [00:13:52] Speaker A: I. I love surgery photos. [00:13:56] Speaker C: Yeah, maybe I sent it to Donna and I can just look back and when I sent it to Donna. [00:14:05] Speaker B: What is the difference between kickboxing and boxing? [00:14:09] Speaker A: Kickboxing. You use your feet. [00:14:12] Speaker B: Two or by themselves. [00:14:16] Speaker A: Oh, two. Like, you can use your hands in kickboxing, but, like, in regular boxing. Absolutely not. [00:14:24] Speaker B: So what's the difference between kicksbock? Kicks. Kickboxing. [00:14:29] Speaker A: Kickbocking. Kickbocking. It is like what fucking chickens do. [00:14:38] Speaker B: What's the difference between kickboxing and karate? [00:14:45] Speaker A: Well, karate is fake, you know, and you just make a bunch of hias. [00:14:50] Speaker B: Fair enough. [00:14:53] Speaker A: And, Yeah, it was 1989. God damn. [00:15:05] Speaker B: Yeah. No, that's some white guy right there. [00:15:11] Speaker A: Was this not a Van Damme movie? No, it was, you know, starring Jean Claude Van Damme as Kurt Stallone, who learns Muay Thai in Thailand to avenge his brother against a brutal fighter, Tong Po. [00:15:27] Speaker B: Wait, so his brother died in a fight? [00:15:29] Speaker A: No, he got up, though. [00:15:31] Speaker C: Oh. [00:15:33] Speaker B: Why the. [00:15:33] Speaker C: Does he get, like, paralyzed or something? [00:15:35] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:15:35] Speaker B: Call it revenge if you don't die. I feel like death involved for it to be revenged. [00:15:42] Speaker C: No, I mean, come on. He got paralyzed. [00:15:53] Speaker A: Yeah, I mean, it. It's. It's on Netflix, so we might. Might watch it. [00:15:57] Speaker C: Oh, my God. It's actually really funny. [00:15:59] Speaker A: It is kind of easy. [00:16:01] Speaker C: The text messages from my dad. And, like, I remember his phase where he, like, was trying to get me to go back to religion. [00:16:10] Speaker B: Oh, dear Lord. [00:16:12] Speaker A: Don't you want to? [00:16:13] Speaker B: Oh, God. [00:16:14] Speaker A: Yeah. I forgot how fucking ugly this guy was. Holy shit. You know, it was crazy. Just. [00:16:24] Speaker B: What the fuck kind of shots are these? [00:16:27] Speaker A: Bad shots. It's an old movie. Like, you gotta give it some grace. Like, you have to, you know, like any old movie. [00:16:35] Speaker B: The old movies I've watched That's. That's. That's more than a grain of salt, right? [00:16:40] Speaker A: I mean, if you want to feel old. If you want to feel old. Monty Python came out, like, 51 years ago, and the Holy Grail still slaps. It's a great movie. Everyone likes British humor. [00:16:52] Speaker B: Okay? Good British humor. Because there's a difference. [00:16:56] Speaker A: Most British humor is good humor. [00:17:00] Speaker B: Once it gets too dry, I can't stick with it. Like, I have, like, a medium of humor, and if you're outside the medium, I can't. [00:17:10] Speaker A: What, you don't like Mr. Bean or something? [00:17:12] Speaker B: Oh, my God, I can't stand Mr. Bean. Fuck. I hate that dude. [00:17:17] Speaker A: Such a. [00:17:18] Speaker B: No, I hate it. It's cringe.

Like the IT crowd. [00:19:02] Speaker B: Okay, that was, for the most part, pretty fucking funny. Yeah, like when she needs to, and I quote, download a browser and it's just full of ads. [00:19:13] Speaker A: Yeah. She gets hired and she doesn't know nothing about computers. [00:19:17] Speaker B: Nothing. And she plays that part so well. [00:19:23] Speaker A: I mean.

Just, I'm like, oh, look, here's this part of this episode that I haven't seen yet. You know, like, I'll wake up to it. I'm like, all right, let's see. And you know what's awful is this morning I woke up and I had a dream of something, you know, amazing. Like an amazing invention or an amazing thought or I'm like, holy shit, this is going to change the world. I'm like, I need to, like, get my phone and record this. This is so wonderful. Then went back to sleep. Then I woke up again. I'm like, I forgot it. Like, and I remember remembering the thing, but I don't remember the thing. You know what I mean? [00:20:38] Speaker B: Yes, I do. [00:20:39] Speaker A: I'm like, oh. Oh, it hurts my soul. [00:20:45] Speaker C: Yep. [00:20:48] Speaker A: But, yeah, whatever. Ah. [00:20:56] Speaker C: Oh, man. [00:20:57] Speaker A: But here, here's a little bit of, you know, good news. Like, like, I, I was going through, like, all, like, good news that I could even find. A homeless man built his own little wooden house and is selling others for $150 like other homeless people. And it's a cute little house. Like, it has paint and it's all, like, well done. And it's gonna make it even more devastating when the city comes and tears it down. [00:21:25] Speaker B: Even little plants in the front. [00:21:27] Speaker A: Yeah, he has a little, little garden up front. [00:21:32] Speaker C: Yep. I have to see this. [00:21:34] Speaker A: Yeah, I'll send it to you. Okay, copy. Let's see if it'll. And send. Maybe it'll send, maybe it won't. Did you get that one? [00:22:03] Speaker C: It did send. [00:22:04] Speaker A: Nice. So, yeah, they're, they're cute. [00:22:08] Speaker B: It looks like a really bad Minecraft house. [00:22:12] Speaker A: I mean, he's working with what he has. [00:22:15] Speaker C: He's working with what he has. I mean, how can he even, like, what land is it on? [00:22:22] Speaker A: Oh, it's on a sidewalk for damn sure. Like, in front of a business that's going to start complaining, you know, but if he's, you know, good for the community, then he's good for the community. And you know what? If he works at that business, it's like, okay, there you go. [00:22:35] Speaker B: He needs to be like, growing in his garden, like, giving it out. [00:22:42] Speaker A: But osvat as Valdo. Osvaldo Mardano. You know, town Spanish. Sounds like a good hard worker. I mean, it, it is like, well done. He has, you know, trash can there not full of Trash not full of needles. And he just, you know, kind of wants to have a little spot. Now he's gonna find out bureaucracy sucks for everyone that owns anything, especially in California. And it's like, oh, there you go. This is over in Los Angeles, too. So I'm sure it's on a sidewalk. And they're gonna be like, okay, we're gonna kick you the out. We're gonna come destroy your entire house, and we're gonna, you know, give you a fine that you can't pay. [00:23:33] Speaker C: Yeah. [00:23:37] Speaker A: And, and, and for the. The last story. This is like one of the weirdest ones that I've seen in a long time, but a dude who says his name is Harry Dresden with a trench coat and like, flip flops, comes to a dude's, like a random dude's door and starts banging on the door, you know, screaming to come in and see his daughter. You know, I'm not even sure this dude even had a daughter, but this is also in California. And so he, like, you know, kicks in the front door and, you know, starts barging in the house. And the homeowner, since it's California, shows up with a shovel. You know, after calling 911, I feel [00:24:35] Speaker B: like that's more intimidating than a gun. [00:24:39] Speaker A: I would much rather have a gun. [00:24:41] Speaker B: There's a difference between going to kill you and, like, you're already dead and I'm going to dispose of you. [00:24:46] Speaker A: Oh, no. It was like a. Like a snow shovel. Where the is she, man? Yeah, let. Let me, you know, let me. Let me screen share this with you. [00:25:01] Speaker C: Yep. [00:25:15] Speaker A: Victor, you around? Huh? You like raping little girls? You try me, I swear to God, I'll kill you. [00:25:29] Speaker B: Who pissed in this dude cereal? [00:25:30] Speaker A: He's just an insane dude. He's just a pure insane guy. He's like a schizophrenic. And they, like, they continue fighting. Third room, bro, I'm telling you. Get the out of my house, please. Answer the question. Get the out of my house. Answer the question, please. There's no one in there. There's three rooms, man. I don't know who you are. Co op drug. [00:26:10] Speaker B: Oh, my God. [00:26:11] Speaker A: I don't know what you're talking about. [00:26:12] Speaker B: Be so awful. I can't imagine. [00:26:16] Speaker A: But yeah, so, like, this dude, you know, goes insane, and, you know, the police, you know, do show up and arrest his ass, which I'm like, hell, yeah. But his name was like, actually like, Nicholas, like Jason Nicholas or something like that. But I mean, like, if this dude was coming in to save a little girl. I'm like, yeah, you know, hats off to him. Like that. That's what we'd want, like, if he, like, was actually coming in and, you know, saving the day, cool. But, yeah, he was just having a mental health crisis, but only in California could you not get shot for breaking into someone's house. Like, if someone was to break in here and start, you know, threatening my wife, I would shoot them 100%. Not that I want to, but, you know, just says, like. Like, don't do that. I. I would, you know, give them a chance to get the fuck out. And if they continue after they see the gun, then it's like, all right, well, you know, you had a good chance to get the. On out of here, you know, now go meet Jesus or something. Go meet your God. But that's gonna be it for this week. Little. Little shorty episode, little weird episode, you know, people being crazy. Yeah. [00:28:03] Speaker C: Yep. [00:28:08] Speaker A: And, yeah, we'll be, you know, back next week, hopefully, you know, back on that. Normal. And until then, see you all later. Bye. [00:28:20] Speaker B: Bye.
