00:00:26.719 --> 00:00:31.519
It is time to believe your worries outside and laugh
2
00:00:31.559 --> 00:00:36.560
with us inside the treehouse. I'm Daniel Malley, along with
3
00:00:36.640 --> 00:00:40.640
Trey Trenholm and Raj Sharma, and yes, typically this is
4
00:00:40.640 --> 00:00:43.840
where it is time to come laugh with us inside
5
00:00:43.840 --> 00:00:45.600
the treehouse. And we're going to do that today. But
6
00:00:45.719 --> 00:00:49.560
first we need to cover the obvious and the fact
7
00:00:49.600 --> 00:00:57.240
that today is Wednesday, September eleventh, twenty twenty four, marking
8
00:00:57.359 --> 00:01:02.039
twenty three years since the terrorists the tacks on nine
9
00:01:02.039 --> 00:01:07.200
to eleven, two thousand and one, and we're in that
10
00:01:07.400 --> 00:01:11.680
weird sort of I guess transitional period where we all
11
00:01:11.719 --> 00:01:17.680
can agree that for our ages, nine to eleven is
12
00:01:17.719 --> 00:01:20.879
our quote unquote Pearl Harbor. You know, like some of
13
00:01:20.920 --> 00:01:26.760
our parents or grandparents experience Pearl Harbor Kennedy moment, Kennedy moment. Yeah,
14
00:01:26.840 --> 00:01:30.840
that's so like our grandparents had Pearl Harbor, our parents
15
00:01:30.920 --> 00:01:35.799
had their Kennedy moment. We have our nine to eleven moment.
16
00:01:37.319 --> 00:01:37.799
And.
17
00:01:40.159 --> 00:01:44.079
Most of us really don't do much to mark Pearl
18
00:01:44.079 --> 00:01:47.719
Harbor day. I'd notice it, I recognize it, but I
19
00:01:47.799 --> 00:01:50.120
don't make it a topic of conversation on the show
20
00:01:50.200 --> 00:01:56.200
or with friends or anything. Same thing with Kennedy assassination anniversary.
21
00:01:56.239 --> 00:01:58.599
I don't really mark that because that'd be a really
22
00:01:58.680 --> 00:02:03.239
hideous cake. In fact, obviously when I'm like jokes about
23
00:02:03.239 --> 00:02:07.200
some of these things. But then there's like then with
24
00:02:07.200 --> 00:02:11.319
a nine to eleven tragedy, I say transition period, because
25
00:02:13.120 --> 00:02:17.960
the only good thing that came out of the aftermath
26
00:02:18.000 --> 00:02:20.400
of nine to eleven was the sense of unity our
27
00:02:20.439 --> 00:02:28.599
country had. It wasn't super divided before nine to eleven,
28
00:02:29.599 --> 00:02:32.759
but since nine to eleven, I have never seen in
29
00:02:32.800 --> 00:02:36.439
my lifetime our country more divided as a nation and
30
00:02:36.639 --> 00:02:40.719
as a people. And the one thing that was good
31
00:02:40.759 --> 00:02:43.400
after nine to eleven was that we were all kind
32
00:02:43.400 --> 00:02:46.199
of cool with each other. We were all raw raw USA,
33
00:02:46.439 --> 00:02:49.560
and we're all Americans, and by god, let's go kill
34
00:02:49.560 --> 00:02:56.159
some terrorists. But that didn't last. And as I said,
35
00:02:56.199 --> 00:02:58.520
now kind of feel like we're more divided now than
36
00:02:58.520 --> 00:03:00.240
we ever been. And I don't really know how to
37
00:03:00.400 --> 00:03:06.879
how to you know, properly recognize the day without just saying, hey,
38
00:03:06.879 --> 00:03:10.960
today's the day, and it sucks. That's kind of where
39
00:03:10.960 --> 00:03:13.479
I am.
40
00:03:13.560 --> 00:03:20.800
It's a It's interesting because like in elementary school especially,
41
00:03:20.879 --> 00:03:26.280
it seems like and you're you're talking about you know,
42
00:03:27.919 --> 00:03:30.520
twenty years after Kennedy and teacher, Like I remember my
43
00:03:30.560 --> 00:03:33.039
teachers that they would come and they would get emotional
44
00:03:33.080 --> 00:03:36.800
about it and you couldn't really understand why. And now
45
00:03:36.879 --> 00:03:39.759
I know how irritating that must have been to the teachers,
46
00:03:39.800 --> 00:03:41.879
because now they're kids who were born after nine to
47
00:03:41.879 --> 00:03:46.599
eleven who have no they're not because they don't. It's
48
00:03:46.639 --> 00:03:49.039
a total disconnect to them. It's just something I learned
49
00:03:49.039 --> 00:03:49.680
about history.
50
00:03:49.960 --> 00:03:52.520
Yeah, and not only that, but there was an assassination
51
00:03:52.599 --> 00:03:55.479
attempt on Reagan back in what it was at eighty
52
00:03:55.520 --> 00:04:00.000
eighty one, and then there was one on a presidential candidate,
53
00:04:00.319 --> 00:04:03.159
just like a month or two ago, on Trump, and
54
00:04:03.199 --> 00:04:05.560
we barely even talk about that anymore. It's I don't
55
00:04:05.560 --> 00:04:07.000
even know if he's still I don't even think he
56
00:04:07.039 --> 00:04:11.120
has a scar. Which that's another thing. But the news
57
00:04:11.159 --> 00:04:15.120
cycle now is so constant, everything gets churned over, so
58
00:04:15.159 --> 00:04:20.720
it gets harder and harder to mark these important anniversaries
59
00:04:20.759 --> 00:04:22.959
in our nation. And you know, sticking with the whole
60
00:04:23.000 --> 00:04:27.879
nine to eleven things, that's where I go back to the
61
00:04:27.879 --> 00:04:31.319
transition part, Like we're getting farther and farther away from it.
62
00:04:31.759 --> 00:04:35.800
Therefore it's you know, further from our minds except on
63
00:04:35.839 --> 00:04:37.720
the day, and even then it's not even as big
64
00:04:37.720 --> 00:04:39.199
as it was because it wasn't you know, it was
65
00:04:39.199 --> 00:04:41.959
twenty three years ago.
66
00:04:43.079 --> 00:04:45.319
Yeah, I think, you know, you have the like the
67
00:04:45.360 --> 00:04:48.199
documentary stuff that comes up on History Channel and things
68
00:04:48.279 --> 00:04:52.120
like that, and so I I will, I will watch
69
00:04:52.160 --> 00:04:55.519
those and kind of where I was, you know, when
70
00:04:55.519 --> 00:04:58.560
everything happened, and replay that, you know, those moments in
71
00:04:58.600 --> 00:05:01.319
my head. But yeah, I mean, it's just everything's so
72
00:05:01.439 --> 00:05:04.319
quick now and everything's turned over so fast you don't
73
00:05:04.360 --> 00:05:07.959
really get time to think about anything like that anymore.
74
00:05:08.040 --> 00:05:12.759
So, and I feel like, also, it feels like every
75
00:05:12.839 --> 00:05:16.240
year there's some new camera angle that gets released, but
76
00:05:16.319 --> 00:05:18.199
it's really I don't really think they're like I saw
77
00:05:18.240 --> 00:05:23.360
one yesterday someone posted on Facebook, Oh suck, this person
78
00:05:23.399 --> 00:05:25.879
waited twenty three years to release this new angle. It's like,
79
00:05:26.240 --> 00:05:28.879
is that Do I really need to see that new angle?
80
00:05:29.000 --> 00:05:31.279
Is that new angle going to be something that's vastly
81
00:05:31.360 --> 00:05:34.519
different than all the other ones I've watched over the
82
00:05:34.560 --> 00:05:37.560
previous twenty two years? Probably not, so, you know, And
83
00:05:37.600 --> 00:05:39.839
I feel like I've seen all the documentaries. Let's ask
84
00:05:39.879 --> 00:05:42.560
are a documentary expert tray. Are there any new nine
85
00:05:42.600 --> 00:05:44.399
to eleven documentaries that we need to be aware of?
86
00:05:45.439 --> 00:05:48.839
No, the ones that claim they've got new footage, really
87
00:05:48.879 --> 00:05:54.040
it's not. It's it's footage that that just didn't get
88
00:05:54.079 --> 00:05:59.199
played as much as other things. But no, there's really
89
00:05:59.279 --> 00:06:00.199
nothing new.
90
00:06:01.040 --> 00:06:02.959
So I go back to the only good thing that
91
00:06:03.000 --> 00:06:06.240
came out of the aftermath of nine to eleven was
92
00:06:06.639 --> 00:06:10.720
the spirit of national unity, which is something that is
93
00:06:10.759 --> 00:06:15.480
completely lost nowadays. And I'm not so arrogant as to
94
00:06:15.519 --> 00:06:19.279
think that what we do here in the treehouse can
95
00:06:19.560 --> 00:06:23.879
reach that same level of bringing about national unity. But
96
00:06:23.959 --> 00:06:26.000
I like to think we can do our part on
97
00:06:26.040 --> 00:06:30.000
a small treehouse level. So let's try to do that.
98
00:06:30.199 --> 00:06:33.399
Let's try to do what we've done so far, which
99
00:06:33.439 --> 00:06:37.600
is to honor and respect the day that is an
100
00:06:37.600 --> 00:06:40.680
anniversary of a great national tragedy, not just for the
101
00:06:40.720 --> 00:06:43.759
country but in our own personal lives, because, like you said, Raj,
102
00:06:44.079 --> 00:06:46.160
a lot of it has to do with personal remembrances
103
00:06:46.160 --> 00:06:48.959
and our personal experiences with that day and even the
104
00:06:49.040 --> 00:06:53.240
days after. But I still think that we can find
105
00:06:53.279 --> 00:06:58.240
ways to come together as a people and as a country,
106
00:06:58.639 --> 00:07:01.000
as difficult as we seem to make it these days.
107
00:07:01.240 --> 00:07:03.120
And I think one way in which we can do
108
00:07:03.160 --> 00:07:07.720
that is by focusing on things that are truly absurd
109
00:07:08.560 --> 00:07:10.160
to get your mind off of it. And I think
110
00:07:10.199 --> 00:07:14.480
I've got I think I've got the story to do it, okay,
111
00:07:18.199 --> 00:07:20.160
And I don't even need to give you the whole story.
112
00:07:20.160 --> 00:07:21.439
I think I can just kind of nail it in
113
00:07:21.480 --> 00:07:26.199
the headline, A man shipped himself to his exes home
114
00:07:26.279 --> 00:07:33.920
and threatened her. I mean, that's that's a lot of
115
00:07:33.959 --> 00:07:38.079
trouble to go through. But I guess if she's if
116
00:07:38.079 --> 00:07:41.279
she's not taking your calls, and I guess that's the one,
117
00:07:42.279 --> 00:07:44.240
the one avenue you've got left.
118
00:07:44.560 --> 00:07:46.120
That's one hell of a prime membership.
119
00:07:48.800 --> 00:07:55.759
Who ordered a man? Oh, it's the wrong one, quicks No,
120
00:07:55.920 --> 00:07:59.199
this is a thirty three year old man was sentenced
121
00:07:59.240 --> 00:08:02.279
to four months and for stalking after he shipped himself
122
00:08:02.319 --> 00:08:05.360
inside of a box to his exes home and threatened
123
00:08:05.360 --> 00:08:09.680
her with a gun. And he told the judge he
124
00:08:09.800 --> 00:08:11.120
just wanted his stuff back.
125
00:08:15.800 --> 00:08:17.279
You can put it in the same box.
126
00:08:19.720 --> 00:08:23.279
Self addressed, stant box in a box send me back
127
00:08:23.319 --> 00:08:24.160
with my ex?
128
00:08:28.199 --> 00:08:32.080
Yeah, how do you ship? Don't they X ray stuff?
129
00:08:32.279 --> 00:08:35.480
Am I wrong? I thought they in this day and age,
130
00:08:35.519 --> 00:08:38.039
like they have to check and see what's being sent. Right.
131
00:08:38.480 --> 00:08:40.240
I imagine if you poke a few holes in the
132
00:08:40.279 --> 00:08:42.720
box and just put fragile on the side and probably
133
00:08:42.759 --> 00:08:43.840
get away with just about.
134
00:08:43.600 --> 00:08:47.000
Anything, okay, And how much and that's you and.
135
00:08:47.000 --> 00:08:48.600
You put a you put a sticker on the box
136
00:08:48.639 --> 00:08:49.639
it says not drugs.
137
00:08:51.399 --> 00:08:55.279
And how much is it to ship yourself? What is that?
138
00:08:55.639 --> 00:08:56.320
Great question?
139
00:08:56.480 --> 00:08:56.759
Again?
140
00:08:56.799 --> 00:08:59.639
These are the these are the answers that are never
141
00:08:59.720 --> 00:09:03.639
in the stories. Right, So we have these outstanding questions
142
00:09:03.679 --> 00:09:05.919
like how much does it cost to ship yourself to
143
00:09:05.960 --> 00:09:08.039
your ex girlfriend's house to ask for your stuff back
144
00:09:08.080 --> 00:09:10.639
with a gun? And nowhere in the story does it
145
00:09:10.679 --> 00:09:11.480
give us that answer.
146
00:09:11.919 --> 00:09:14.279
I mean, was he doing next day psycho or is
147
00:09:14.320 --> 00:09:14.879
it a ground?
148
00:09:19.519 --> 00:09:22.480
Yeah? I don't feel like I don't feel like this
149
00:09:22.559 --> 00:09:25.399
is the time to go cheap and just go usps ground.
150
00:09:27.120 --> 00:09:29.159
I think you need to pay for the expedited shipping.
151
00:09:30.240 --> 00:09:33.679
He's also like he shipped himself with the gun.
152
00:09:34.440 --> 00:09:34.840
Mm hmm.
153
00:09:35.559 --> 00:09:37.080
I mean that's uh. I don't know, I don't know
154
00:09:37.080 --> 00:09:39.879
how much that costs. I'm guessing it's a little bit.
155
00:09:40.879 --> 00:09:43.399
I don't know. If it's more like you do you
156
00:09:43.440 --> 00:09:46.159
pay a little bit extra to to take the weapon
157
00:09:46.240 --> 00:09:46.879
on with you?
158
00:09:47.639 --> 00:09:50.639
I don't know, but I think, uh, I think you
159
00:09:50.679 --> 00:09:53.799
could wrap a red bow on this box and justin
160
00:09:53.879 --> 00:09:56.720
Timberlake can come back with it's a dick in a box.
161
00:09:56.759 --> 00:10:03.879
Part two, we got to find out how much it
162
00:10:04.000 --> 00:10:04.960
cost to ship.
163
00:10:05.360 --> 00:10:05.879
One of us.
164
00:10:07.000 --> 00:10:11.200
Okay, look, I have some really weird search history online
165
00:10:11.879 --> 00:10:13.960
and I don't think I'm ready to add that one
166
00:10:14.039 --> 00:10:16.600
into the mix. I'm going to leave that to one
167
00:10:16.600 --> 00:10:19.240
of you guys. How much to ship a human?
168
00:10:20.240 --> 00:10:20.480
Yeah?
169
00:10:21.200 --> 00:10:25.279
Was this just like a crosstown courier? Yeah?
170
00:10:25.919 --> 00:10:30.480
Okay, So this happened in the Netherlands. He shipped himself
171
00:10:30.559 --> 00:10:33.480
inside of a box to her address. It's unclear if
172
00:10:33.480 --> 00:10:36.080
she somehow brought it inside or not, but he emerged
173
00:10:36.080 --> 00:10:37.639
from the box, threatened her with a gun, and then
174
00:10:37.679 --> 00:10:40.320
took off with the keys to the place. The man
175
00:10:40.360 --> 00:10:42.559
told the judge having himself delivered in a box was
176
00:10:42.600 --> 00:10:44.480
the only way to get in and get my stuff back.
177
00:10:47.159 --> 00:10:49.039
Let me see if there's another version of this story
178
00:10:49.039 --> 00:10:50.840
that gives us a little more details. Because it doesn't
179
00:10:50.840 --> 00:10:53.240
say from where he shipped himself, I'm assuming they were
180
00:10:53.240 --> 00:10:58.000
in the same city. But we don't know. The delivery
181
00:10:58.039 --> 00:11:00.399
took place on May eighteenth. Was the coleman of a
182
00:11:00.440 --> 00:11:02.679
series of incidents following the breakup of the couple's one
183
00:11:02.720 --> 00:11:06.360
year relationship, including the theft of her car keys, trespassing,
184
00:11:06.440 --> 00:11:09.440
and placing a tracker in her home. Wow, this guy's special.
185
00:11:10.120 --> 00:11:12.159
The man told the judge that having himself delivered in
186
00:11:12.159 --> 00:11:13.799
a box was the only way to get in and
187
00:11:13.840 --> 00:11:19.799
get his stuff back. The man claimed that the woman
188
00:11:19.840 --> 00:11:21.960
had given permission for the visits and that the keys
189
00:11:22.000 --> 00:11:23.919
were given to him earlier, but that did not impress
190
00:11:23.960 --> 00:11:26.639
the judge, who agreed to the prosecutor's demand to four
191
00:11:26.639 --> 00:11:29.519
months in jail in a three year restraining order. That's
192
00:11:29.519 --> 00:11:34.399
the entirety of the story. Nowhere doesn't mention was this,
193
00:11:34.759 --> 00:11:37.519
you know, within the same city shipping? Was he in
194
00:11:37.519 --> 00:11:40.360
a different county? Was he in a different country? All
195
00:11:40.399 --> 00:11:42.759
I know is that he was delivered to her house
196
00:11:42.840 --> 00:11:45.600
in the Netherlands. I can just I can only assume
197
00:11:45.720 --> 00:11:48.000
that if they were in a one year relationship, that
198
00:11:48.039 --> 00:11:49.879
they live in the same city. But I don't know
199
00:11:49.919 --> 00:11:50.279
for sure.
200
00:11:51.399 --> 00:11:54.720
Do you track yourself? Do you see where you are?
201
00:11:56.000 --> 00:11:58.039
That makes sense? Like like a tracking thing?
202
00:11:58.399 --> 00:12:00.480
For you're in the box, right yeah?
203
00:12:00.600 --> 00:12:01.840
Or do you put like an air tag in the
204
00:12:01.840 --> 00:12:03.960
box with you so you can follow yourself around?
205
00:12:04.519 --> 00:12:04.639
Right?
206
00:12:05.200 --> 00:12:07.919
Yeah? You just right? Not your X on the side
207
00:12:07.919 --> 00:12:14.960
of the package.
208
00:12:16.120 --> 00:12:16.960
Nothing to see in here.
209
00:12:20.200 --> 00:12:21.679
Pop out of the box with the gun. And you
210
00:12:21.720 --> 00:12:29.159
said I never got you anything.
