Default terms at mintmobile.com. Hello! And welcome to my favorite murder. The mini-mini-sode.
00:02:29
Where we read you your stories that you've so kindly written to us over the years.
00:02:35
Do you want to hear one now? Let's do it. Why don't you go first? Okay. The subject line of this, which thrilled me when I read it, is money in unexpected places.
00:02:45
We love those stories. Can't wait. And it starts, howdy hi hello i'm listening to minisode 408 story about finding 50 in a vintage skirt
00:02:56
and a suit remember that one that's still with me it's still right in my heart and i assumed you
00:03:03
either asked for money in unexpected places or the writer had a good idea that i'm now stealing
00:03:08
so i can tell my money in unexpected places tale we definitely want money in unexpected places
00:03:13
the stories. Always. Any amount of money. And the more unexpected, the better. I had a habit, and I explained this to Adrienne when we were on vacation in October,
00:03:25
because we'd be in these weird places far away, like in an island north of Sicily or whatever.
00:03:31
And we would be walking by like a cliff, the side of a cliff, and then there'd be like a little hole.
00:03:36
And then I'd go, that'd be a good place to hide money. And she kept going, sorry, why do you keep
00:03:40
saying? I'm like, that's just what I think all the time. It's like, or if you had a key,
00:03:44
you had a key you didn't want anyone to find, put it right there. Oh, hiding places. Oh, what are just hiding places?
00:03:50
Yeah. Yeah. Send those in. Send hiding places. It's just a list. People are like, a box. Okay. My husband and I used to be
00:03:58
very into rock climbing and he being a more experienced climber took me on many new adventures
00:04:04
and taught me new types of climbing. One type he taught me is called crack climbing,
00:04:09
where you smoke a bunch of crack and go to Yosemite. No, that's not what it says.
00:04:16
And then it says dot, dot, dot. Have you ever seen a big old rock face with a thin seam running down it?
00:04:22
We use those cracks in the rock to go up. No, no, no, thank you. Have you seen that?
00:04:28
Yeah. They chalk their fingertips and they just hold on. It's so good. Any of that.
00:04:33
That's going to be a no thank you from me. My thing is, with my commitment issues, I would get like 80 feet up and be like, what the fuck?
00:04:44
I'm actually interested in doing like one of the indoor wall climbing things. Oh, yeah.
00:04:49
That'd be kind of cool. Sure. But I don't think I could do it like when there's actual danger involved.
00:04:54
Freestyle on. Yeah. Yeah. On Half Dome or whatever. Steve Agee broke his back. Recently?
00:05:01
No, like a million years ago. Shit. I know. I mean, there is a lot of risk, but so much reward.
00:05:09
Like this story, I'll tell you right now. Okay, go. I was nervous to crack climb, but he convinced me to try it out because one particular climbing
00:05:17
route was just too fun, too incredible to pass up. He kept saying that the last pitch, and then in parentheses it says a portion of the climb,
00:05:26
was the money pitch because it was so great. He wouldn't stop saying the money pitch, so I wouldn't stop making fun of him while we
00:05:33
climbed because who describes things as money anymore? Well, lo and behold, to both of our shock,
00:05:40
when we got to the top of the climb over 100 feet off the ground, we discovered tucked right
00:05:46
into the crack on this rock, a $20 bill. The money. I guess it was the money pit. Yep. Oh my
00:05:53
God And then it just says stay sexy and pay it forward So maybe one day the you hide somewhere will end up as a story on MFM Grace I love that
00:06:05
I'm going to do that. I'm going to hide $20 somewhere. Yeah. In a weird spot. Yeah.
00:06:11
Yeah. You could hide $20 on a playground. Oh my God. Pandemonium. Right? Wait, there's a PS on this.
00:06:19
It says, hello, Catherine Elizabeth, my best friend slash sister I never had who introduced
00:06:24
me to MFM during the pits of 2020. Aw. Hello. All right. Money found story. Love it. Okay.
00:06:32
This is called your classic Florida dad near kidnapping story. Hey, MFM. I've been meaning
00:06:39
to write this in for so long. And finally I decided it was time. I grew up in a small town
00:06:44
in Florida with my two amazing parents in the late nineties, early two thousands. My parents
00:06:49
raised my sister and I like a classic 70s, 80s family. Think latchkey parenting with giant house
00:06:55
parties on school nights. This included my dad taking me to his favorite local bar for happy
00:07:01
hour when my mom took my sister to her ballet classes on Friday night. On this particular Friday
00:07:07
night, my dad was drinking at the bar while I sat by myself in the quote kids corner. In the bar?
00:07:13
Yeah. But it's Florida. You know what I mean? Yeah. And sorry, the 80s in Florida.
00:07:21
This is the late 90s, early 2000s. But everything was aged. Yeah, I bet. But that idea, it's like, well, at least maybe the trauma of that would be lessened by just having other kids with you.
00:07:34
Right. Well, she's alone. And then she says where they had an old, basically empty toy claw machine and a race car game so the parents could ignore the kids all they wanted.
00:07:44
It's just threw some shit in the corner. Yeah. Like, that's a kid's corner. Here.
00:07:48
I'm minding my business driving race cars when a tall, thin man came up to me from the back door beside the claw machine.
00:07:55
He proceeded to tell me that my dad was outside waiting for me and had asked him to kindly come collect me to go home.
00:08:01
I was probably about six years old, and somehow my six-year-old brain told me that this guy was full of shit.
00:08:07
I looked over at the bar and saw my dad still standing with his friends, completely unaware of what was happening.
00:08:14
I told the man I needed to get my stuffed animal at the bar and politely excused myself to go ask my then quite drunk dad what was going on.
00:08:23
Oh, shit. When I told him, he grabbed the manager and drunkenly told her to maybe check out this guy outside.
00:08:29
Turns out he had corralled another child with him and she caught him outside just in time.
00:08:36
As far as I know, nothing ever came of this. And though I have tried to research this many times, there is no record of a near kidnapping at the local bar.
00:08:47
My dad to this day can only vaguely remember almost losing his daughter that night and had never followed up about the man who tried to take her.
00:08:56
Classic dad. My dad is an incredible guy and continues to live life with a live fast, die young attitude at the ripe young age of 70.
00:09:05
As you can imagine, I have plenty more near death, secret past life stories that I'll have to write about another day involving this legendary man.
00:09:13
And with that, stay sexy and don't let your husband take your six year old to happy hour.
00:09:17
Or if you do, maybe sit her on the bar like a normal parent. Emma, she, her. Holy fucking shit, Emma.
00:09:25
holy shit you gotta look up local kidnappings from that like from that area and that time because
00:09:32
that guy was such a psycho that he he already had a kid and he was getting another kid like
00:09:39
what in the living fuck are we talking about yeah why did nobody follow up why why because they're
00:09:45
all drunk and it's that kind of thing it's like that's the i feel like maybe to me part of why i
00:09:53
Emma's obsessed with true crime, there is a little bit of that, the 70s parenting where it's like,
00:09:59
why is no one paying attention? Am I the only one paying attention? Then it's like,
00:10:03
I better fucking pay attention. And I better pay attention to all this shit. So that like, because if it's, you know, if it's me by myself,
00:10:11
no one's paying attention, then yeah, you're on your fucking own. And six year old Emma, the badass, who's just like, she first of all, how brilliant. She's like,
00:10:19
Yeah. Not my dad, whatever. She goes, excuse me, I would like to go with you. That's a great idea.
00:10:24
Let me get my stuffed animal like a child would. Yeah. Uno memento. Let me just go grab the and then be like, dad, what is up with this guy?
00:10:31
He says that he knows you. Should I go with this kidnapper or what do you would you like to weigh in?
00:10:36
Are you having too much fun? Motherfucker. OK, drink your fucking seven and seven and like, let's get the fuck out of here.
00:10:42
Come on. I mean, happy hour. Yeah. No rules. Happy hour. Jesus Christ. there's an active kidnapper in the building.
00:10:51
Do you give a shit? Is the answer really no? God damn it. Hey, everyone. It's Cal Penn, host of Earsay,

last night to this drive why is it never chill because this is our life backstage on the road
00:12:20
It's loud, messy, real. And that's the best part. Whole crew, no plan, just moving.
00:12:27
Good thing Nissan builds for that kind of chaos. Not just test tracks, real life scenes, late nights, road trips, all of it.
00:12:34
That's why it holds up. Nissan was ranked number one in initial quality among mainstream brands by J.D. Power.

00:12:52
Awards based on 2025 model year. Newer models may be shown. Oh, I think you're going to like this one.
00:12:59
Okay. It says the power of the magic eight ball family drama request. It says, hello, ladies.
00:13:06
I could write a book about my family, but here's the story of why my cousin and I no longer speak.
00:13:12
Oh, yay. I love it. already. Right. Tell us why family members don't speak, please. The most basic story is still going
00:13:20
to be great. Yeah. It could be like we fought one time. It's like, God damn. Yeah. Yeah. I can't
00:13:25
relate. I don't have anyone like I'll never speak to again. So it's really nice to hear that.
00:13:29
I only have like eight or nine people like that. My cousin and I were raised essentially as
00:13:35
siblings. And so when he got engaged, I offered to help with the wedding planning as I not only
00:13:40
work at a wedding venue, but I've been a bridesmaid about 10 times and have friends in the
00:13:45
industry. The first time I read this, I didn't read clearly that they're saying they work at a
00:13:51
wedding venue. So when they say I've been a bridesmaid 10 times and have friends in the
00:13:56
industry, it made me laugh so hard because I thought they were just like bragging that they'd
00:13:59
been to that many weddings that they're like friends with the caterer. I know everything.
00:14:03
Yeah. Their wedding budget was approximately $5. So the extended family was really trying to chip
00:14:09
in to help. I was paying for the cake. My parents paid for the ceremony venue. and another family member was paying for the reception hall.
00:14:18
I knew that the couple was stressed due to money, so I really tried to make the wedding planning meetings fun.
00:14:23
And then in parentheses, it says champagne, music, dance breaks, bride and groom sashes, etc.
00:14:30
We got in an argument over family drama. And then in parentheses, it says his mom doesn't like the bride.
00:14:37
Ooh, I got to question this whole fucking wedding. Yeah. This whole marriage. Yeah.
00:14:44
Okay. So they got in an argument about that and my involvement in the wedding stopped.
00:14:49
I had tried to meet with my cousin on several occasions and I even wrote him a letter with no
00:14:54
luck. The wedding was supposed to be in June of 2023. So in April, my cousin called a 15 person
00:15:00
family meeting. If you couldn't attend the meeting, then you were disinvited. I love like wedding monsters. These are great.
00:15:12
People go crazy. You go crazy. People go fucking crazy. Okay. And it's not just like bridezilla. It's like what happens is everyone goes crazy and the bride has
00:15:23
to be the like middleman for all of it. And then they go crazy. I love when like you see those people that like pop up online where it's like,
00:15:32
Like this is the list that the bride sent that you have, like the non-negotiables.
00:15:36
If you want to be, if you want to be invited, like I love those. And they're like fucking nightmares.
00:15:41
It's my favorite. Also, it's like the non-negotiables. All right. Well, then I guess I'm out.
00:15:46
Like you're. Then I don't want to come to your fucking wedding. I can't imagine a world where actually just on principle, I wouldn't like, well, then
00:15:53
yeah, stand your ground. I'll talk to you later. Yeah. Have a great life. You dumbass.
00:15:59
Okay. So if you didn't come to this meeting, you were just invited from the wedding.
00:16:04
The meeting lasted two hours and no one was allowed to speak unless you were given the magic eight ball.
00:16:09
However, no matter how many times someone asked for the eight ball, my cousin wouldn't give it to anyone.
00:16:16
There ended up being physical fights, plural, at this meeting and so much screaming.
00:16:22
I'm surprised the cops weren't called. Oh, my God. The wedding ended up getting canceled just to find out that my cousin legally got married a whole year in advance and didn't tell anyone.
00:16:34
So most of this drama was for nothing. Send us your stories about people being petty as fuck.
00:16:45
That's hilarious. And also send us your stories about people who try to get their entire family to pay for shit they're doing when they already did it privately.
00:16:53
Right. Stay sexy. And next time, bring your own magic eight ball, Michelle. Oh, Michelle, I think you just you just kicked off a family drama series that I hope everybody can come to because truly it doesn't take much for a family drama email to be great.
00:17:10
Tell us about your family drama. The pettier, the better. And you're just sitting pretty within your fucking in your non bullshit world.
00:17:19
Yeah. Also, I think you could do a subset of like family wedding drama because that alone.
00:17:25
For sure. That alone. Or just wedding drama. Yeah. My next one's called I Ran Away on the Appalachian Trail at 12.
00:17:33
Mm-hmm. Okay, guys, I love your stories and I'm not a day oneer, but I heard you're getting lost in the woods stories and have to tell you mine.
00:17:41
I grew up in West Virginia and have always been the one gal every parent hates. So let rewind to 1996 I think Here goes My mother got married to the most annoying stepdad any 13 could imagine He was a know and was a man of the woods He was a biologist and always trying to impress his new wife with some woodsy excursion Irritating
00:18:08
Well, one particular day he wanted to go on a hike to Rocky Run Shelter and thought it would benefit
00:18:14
me as a tween to go on the hike. So clearly I asked my best friend to go and something snapped
00:18:20
in my tiny brain and I decided it would be fun for us to run away. We hid in the woods until they
00:18:26
couldn't see us and then walked until we reached Rocky Run Shelter. Guys, in our dumb little brains,
00:18:31
we thought we would meet hot hikers. Instead, we found an A-frame shelter and cold woods as it was
00:18:39
the middle of December and we were freezing. Any old who, after our fire burned out and we had one
00:18:46
sip of water and 15 skittles, we decided to go to sleep. We heard what we thought were farm dogs
00:18:54
barking, but no, those were the hound dogs. The whole park service people unleashed the hounds
00:19:00
and used helicopters to find us with infrared. Yeah, your two 12-year-olds out in the fucking
00:19:06
woods. They would have to. In December. These kind of men rescued us with foil blankets and
00:19:14
walked us out to the parking lot. I'm not sure if you've ever been in as much trouble as I was
00:19:20
in that moment. Despite a parking lot full of fire trucks and ambulances and reporters,
00:19:26
my parents knew I did that on purpose and their searing eyes and silence said everything.
00:19:32
You little shit. The next day at school, I learned I was on the front page of all our local papers and the lunch ladies laughed at me.
00:19:41
I can send you the newspaper article to prove it. Love you. And don't be a dumb tween and run away on the Appalachian trail.
00:19:49
The guys aren't that hot. M. M, you're a legend. Hot hiker. I think that's so funny and cool.
00:20:00
Yeah, don't do it. Never do it. Don't do it. But what a fucking hilarious story.
00:20:05
To do something so bratty that you end up on the front page of the paper is pretty legendary.
00:20:11
And your parents aren't even worried about you because they're like this little fucking brat.
00:20:15
Yeah. I know she's faking. They know. Hey, everyone. It's Cal Penn, host of Earsay, the Audible and iHeart Audiobook Club.

Short and sweet story for my very short and very sweet 91 and 90 year old grandparents,

Sarandara Avenue. Yeah. In Oak Park or some shit. Okay. A few years ago, when my family made it to Tampa for a visit, Nana spilled the beans on a little gem of Grandpa's architectural career.
00:24:35
It turns out that back in the day, think 50s, 60s, when they were living in Illinois and raising their family, Grandpa was approached with the opportunity, and this says it in all caps, to design the McDonald's arches.
00:24:52
What? What? The company was looking for something to set them apart in the burger world,
00:24:57
and they were searching for someone to make their arch dreams a reality. They asked Grandpa. Grandpa turned them down.
00:25:03
No! He thought the idea was stupid and not profitable. Oh my God. You could tell in Nana's voice and Grandpa's eye roll when she was telling the story that
00:25:15
the two of them have had more than a couple conversations about the outcome of this career
00:25:20
decision. this has come up at every time they fight and every time they pass a mcdonald's
00:25:25
even worse i bet he refuses to eat a mcdonald's and she fucking loves it i've my friend peter
00:25:32
folks has a i can't remember it's he knows a guy who's a relative of his who and i'm probably i
00:25:39
probably have told you the story in these past nine years in the 70s it was a contest for the
00:25:44
new slogan for New York City. And, you know, it's now I love New York, like the I heart New York
00:25:50
thing. His submission was I like New York. The shrug is the best part. He's so close. Like he was
00:25:59
like, Oh, I have a good slogan. I like New York. And they're like, we'll go with I love New York
00:26:02
because it actually seems to I mean I like New York fits the New York vibe kind of better though It does And it And it is like yeah a little doubt a little shrug Yeah Meh I love it Not too Don make a fuss
00:26:16
No big deal. Okay, here's the end of this email. All the love and smooches to two of my favorite people and to Grandpa for sticking it to the man before it was even a thing and before he even knew what he was doing.
00:26:27
Stay sexy and maybe take a beat before rejecting an opportunity. Cass, she, her.
00:26:34
Wow. Oh, that's an epic fail. So hilarious. I love it. Okay, my last one's about a grandma, actually.
00:26:42
It's called Klepto Grandma. Yes. Hey, besties. My grandma, Chris, has never been the typical loving, good cook, spoiling the grandchildren type.
00:26:52
Most holidays consisted of $5 gift cards and scratch off lottery tickets as presents.
00:26:58
Sounds great. Yeah, love that. As an only child and middle grandchild, too young for the older cousins and too old for the younger, I typically spent my time snooping around my grandparents' house without notice.
00:27:11
Hell yes. My favorite thing to look at was the display of glass collectible cups.
00:27:17
The cups have survived decades of air hockey pucks, pillows, and various toys flying around the room from my cousins.
00:27:24
I asked my grandpa, Roger, if he remembers getting all of the indestructible glasses and if there were any stories behind them.
00:27:32
His response? Oh, all of those are from your grandma taking them from everywhere we went over the years.
00:27:39
So it says, what? Apparently, any slight mention of liking anything from truly anywhere would magically end up in her purse.
00:27:49
after the realization that my grandma is a klepto sunk in i then started to remember all
00:27:57
the things that grandma always brought home with her cups utensils bowls umbrellas jello shots
00:28:05
like on her way out of a fucking denny's and she grabs the umbrella out of the umbrella stand she
00:28:11
likes it but it's like some other someone's umbrella i'm just trying to eat uh moons over
00:28:15
Or Miami? Miami exactly My grandpa also told me that she took one of the glasses from the restaurant during their first date I asked what he thought when she whipped out the stolen cup and he just shrugged and said
00:28:27
should have been a sign, but oh, well, it should have been a sign. That's good grandpa comedy right there.
00:28:35
It's called a red flag. 48 years later, and they're still happily married. And my grandma mainly goes to the casino to rack up those big ticket items.
00:28:43
And it says, how many blenders does one person need? Stay sexy and hide your valuables when my grandma is around.
00:28:50
Kayla. P.S. My grandpa also told me that my grandma took the tip money as well during their first date.
00:28:57
WTF, Christine. Christine, don't do that. How did she get a second date with this dude?
00:29:04
First of all, did he take her on a date to like a Jersey Mike's? Like, is it a tip at the front or was it like the tip on someone else's table?
00:29:13
I think it was like the tip on the table. Like he put the tip down on the table.
00:29:17
She fucking took it. She took his tip money. Yeah, I think so. She is spicy. She's a true,
00:29:23
a true club. I have to admit, I'm not judging you and Christine because, or Kayla who's,
00:29:30
you know, who cares, who, who actually cares about Christine. But when I would get drunk,
00:29:34
I love to, like I would, I would be like that with my, but it was always my friend stuff.
00:29:39
And it was stuff that I would, the next day I'd be like, oh, sorry, I stole this,
00:29:42
like a Frank Sinatra cassette tape. And I'd be like the next day, like, sorry, this is yours. Oh my God. Just things ending up in your purse. It was like that feeling
00:29:50
of like, I want something. Why can't I have something? You know what I mean? Just constant
00:29:55
dissatisfaction. Oh my God. This should be mine. This should be mine. Yeah. Well, tell us your
