Call It Crew
Oh, my gosh. You all are the gift that keeps on giving. This one's all about you. I dedicate this episode to you.
Jessica Capshaw
And by you, she means the Call It Crew. The Call It Crew. Because this episode is titled. What? Jessica, go. Just do it. I'm gonna sing it after.
Call It Crew
All you need to know about this episode is that there's not one of these submissions that isn't anonymous. I know, I know.
Jessica Capshaw
And that's amazing. And that's why you're.
Call It Crew
And this epis is about keeping my dirty little secrets.
Jessica Capshaw
I'll keep you my dirty little secret. Okay. They're all anonymous.
Call It Crew
Yep. Because, you know, and it's that time of the year where you can just, you know, unburden yourself. You can just, you know, unload the secrets or confessions. And we asked you to, and you did not disappoint. I think the best way to do this is just to jump right in.
Jessica Capshaw
There's no buffer needed. We're just going.
Call It Crew
No, I'm starting off with the first one. Are you ready?
Jessica Capshaw
Yeah. Go.
Call It Crew
In college, I found out my. So I collected a box of valuable things from his house. An Xbox, his huge glass bong, gold necklace, and video games. And I took them to Goodwill and dumped him after. He still has no idea to this day.
Jessica Capshaw
I think that might be illegal.
Call It Crew
It's also called karma.
Jessica Capshaw
Okay, that's what I have to say about that next one. My senior year of college, I was so hungover from a night out early the next morning, I couldn't make it to the bathroom to vomit. So I threw up in a huge planter in our dorm building. And it stunk for days. And I've never Told a soul. I still think about it and I want to die. That's so gross.
Call It Crew
Yeah, it's really gross.
Jessica Capshaw
You know what, though? Honestly? Better in there than other places.
Call It Crew
Yeah. On, like, carpet. Where you really couldn't.
Jessica Capshaw
Yeah.
Call It Crew
No, it's just gross. It is, but there's remorse and that.
Jessica Capshaw
That's why we're here.
Call It Crew
Hold on.
Jessica Capshaw
We forgive you.
Call It Crew
That's a small part of you that was making good decisions.
Jessica Capshaw
Oh, my God. The next one.
Call It Crew
Ow. What? You know, this happens more than I think we know about.
Jessica Capshaw
Yeah. Go read it so that we. They understand.
Call It Crew
Okay. All right. I slept with my 50 year old female teacher, and I was 19 at the time.
Jessica Capshaw
That's a problem.
Call It Crew
Yeah. But it's not illegal.
Jessica Capshaw
It's not illegal, but.
Call It Crew
So it's not like a crime. It's just. It's not a crime.
Jessica Capshaw
It's just messy and position of power. I mean, we could deep dive.
Call It Crew
Yeah, yeah, yeah. Probably the teacher piece of it. No judgment, but. Wow. That's a secret. We're gonna keep that one a secret.
Jessica Capshaw
Yeah. I killed my sister's fish while taking care of them when she was on a trip. I overfed them and then lied about it when she came home. I. This is interesting to me because I heard the rumor that, like, fish will just eat, eat, eat, eat, eat. And then there's the myth, or maybe fact is that their stomachs explode. Oh, they can't stop eating. However, my kids, I. You know, it's like, well, feed the fish. And Lucas is like, I want to feed the fish. It's like, okay, just a little pinch and it's like, you know, a fistful goes in.
Call It Crew
Yeah. Yeah.
Jessica Capshaw
My fish are fine. So, like, I'm confused. Like, what are you. What did you give them a steak? Yeah, like, I want to know. I don't know if that's true.
Call It Crew
Hmm.
Jessica Capshaw
Anyway, they're dead.
Call It Crew
Yep. Nobody knows about it.
Jessica Capshaw
They're gone.
Call It Crew
Okay.
Jessica Capshaw
Okay.
Call It Crew
I call out sick to work every so often and don't tell my husband so I can have a day to myself at the house. That's great.
Jessica Capshaw
That's a good one. Good for you. That doesn't even need to be anonymous. You should be proud of that. I would have put my name on that. Okay.
Call It Crew
Goodness.
Jessica Capshaw
I'm in year what?
Call It Crew
Yes. It's getting. Wow.
Jessica Capshaw
I'm in year 13, and I hooked up with my biology teacher on a night out recently.
Call It Crew
What is year 13? Is that like, you're like a year past being a senior?
Jessica Capshaw
I think you're still in high School, I think this is England is year 13. I gotta check on this.
Call It Crew
Hang on now.
Jessica Capshaw
I've gotta do a. I wonder where.
Call It Crew
They ran into their biology teacher on a night out.
Jessica Capshaw
That's what I was thinking.
Call It Crew
Huh.
Jessica Capshaw
And desert. Does an arrest need to be made?
Call It Crew
I don't know.
Jessica Capshaw
Okay.
Call It Crew
Okay. I lied to my best friend once about something major and it ended with her trying to fight a person that had nothing to do with it.
Jessica Capshaw
That's.
Call It Crew
That would be hard to stand by. I would feel deep, deep, deep guilt about that one.
Jessica Capshaw
Sorry.
Call It Crew
Well, see, you're anonymous, so, uh.
Jessica Capshaw
Oh.
Call It Crew
Oh, yeah.
Jessica Capshaw
You guys are tricky, tricky today.
Call It Crew
That's a bummer.
Jessica Capshaw
My mom's best friend had a three year affair with my uncle. It continued even when my aunt got pregnant. I caught them once, but haven't said anything.
Call It Crew
Okay, you know what? I know that these are supposed to be salacious and I'm on board with it being, you know, naughty, but this is really. This is making me sad.
Jessica Capshaw
Do you need a moment?
Call It Crew
I do. Come on.
Jessica Capshaw
Yeah.
Call It Crew
I mean, that was not good.
Jessica Capshaw
Okay.
Call It Crew
Although I have to say, I do have to say it never behooves you to be the one that tells anyone. Right. It's heed the message, kill the messenger. It's not like you're gonna do anything good.
Jessica Capshaw
I'm gonna tell you what, that's true.
Call It Crew
I know. That's why it's just a bummer.
Jessica Capshaw
People do succeed, they stay together, but they never wanna see you again because you were the one that said it. Maybe it's an anonymous letter of like, psst.
Call It Crew
I've thought about that.
Jessica Capshaw
Sally's having a little.
Call It Crew
Yeah, I've wanted to do that with Uncle Bob. Yeah. Yeah, I've wanted to do that.
Jessica Capshaw
Yeah. I think it's an. I think it's anonymous letter time.
Call It Crew
Yep. Yep.
Jessica Capshaw
Okay. This is you.
Call It Crew
Okay. A close friend of mine befriended this wretched girl and they threw a huge New Year's Eve party at a hotel and I wasn't invited, so I called the police and tattled on them and the party ended and they had to pay a fine. I'm weirdly okay with that.
Jessica Capshaw
That one. We support that one.
Call It Crew
I absolve you of this crime.
Jessica Capshaw
We support that one. Okay. The son of our CEO was forced on me to be an intern on my team. I came back from a meeting to him watching porn at his cubicle. I was so shocked. I just never said a word because it was so awkward. Ooh. I would have said a word about that.
Call It Crew
You would have. Hell yeah, but it would have had to be an anonymous letter. You're not marching into your CEO and saying, hey, your nephew Bob.
Jessica Capshaw
No, but you know what? I wouldn't call it HR anonymously. You would have said, yeah, I would have.
Call It Crew
Check on Bob.
Jessica Capshaw
Bob's been. Yeah, Bob's at the cubicle 4. Check on him right now.
Call It Crew
Yeah, right now.
Jessica Capshaw
Look at that search history.
Call It Crew
Okay, I'm a nurse, and while working on the. I'm a nurse, and while working in the icu, I had gas and.
Jessica Capshaw
Oh, my. Did you that I was gonna have.
Call It Crew
To read this one because it's my kryptonite and I can't talk about it without laughing uncontrollably.
Jessica Capshaw
I have to read it. No, this one was meant for you.
Call It Crew
I can't.
Jessica Capshaw
Just do it.
Call It Crew
Okay.
Camille Luddington
Wow.
Call It Crew
I'm a nurse, and while working in the icu, I had gas and blamed my farts on an intubated patient.
Jessica Capshaw
That is funny and terrible all at the same time.
Call It Crew
And also, there's something so radically wrong with, like, someone laying there intubated, but farts just coming out of them.
Jessica Capshaw
Yeah. Oh, my God.
Call It Crew
Guilty of talking about someone who was intubated because I want to know if they're okay now. Okay.
Jessica Capshaw
Oh, my God. Yes. Imagine if they died too, and you.
Call It Crew
You've like, spread a rumor about them not laughing.
Jessica Capshaw
My God. The colic crew are just. They're in fine form today. Oh, Lord.

I slept with my boss, befriended his wife and tutored his daughter. Not my finest moment. I love how it's considered just a moment.
Call It Crew
Yeah, it's a series of moments. Yeah. Anonymous I can say this pretty.
Jessica Capshaw
I'm not judging. However it does no I'm not judging.
Call It Crew
I'm calling it what it is.
Jessica Capshaw
What is it? A little hand that marks a cradle.
Call It Crew
It's not good. You don't.
Jessica Capshaw
Well, it's not great. It's not a great look.
Call It Crew
No, it's not. She. But I don't know if I. Why? I don't know why. I think it's. Whatever. No, this is not your finest moment. Glad you noticed.
Jessica Capshaw
No, no, no. I mean, you're not putting that on your resume, are you?
Call It Crew
No, no, no, no, no, no. Okay. In Covid when we all had to work from home, I was one of those people who made a fake background photo of my home office and took my meetings. Even though I wasn't in the country, we had a strict must be home policy. And I said that I never got caught.
Jessica Capshaw
That's so smart.
Call It Crew
Yeah. Naughty. She's like, oh, my God, that beaches of Costa Rica.
Jessica Capshaw
Yeah, I think that's amazing. I love it. Okay, this is fine. I'm okay with this next one, actually. I licked all the powdered sugar off a box of donuts and put them back in the box and watched my brothers eat them all. Fine with it. Support it.
Call It Crew
Okay.
Jessica Capshaw
That's what you get for being a brother.
Call It Crew
Mm.
Jessica Capshaw
Mm.
Call It Crew
Yeah. Mm.
Jessica Capshaw
It is gross, though. It's gross.
Call It Crew
Do you remember a long time ago, wasn't there something around Ariana Grande licking donuts? Right. She got in trouble for that. It was on camera. She.
Jessica Capshaw
Yeah, but she.
Call It Crew
She went into a Dunkin Donuts or something and she licked some donuts. I'm sure she wishes she was anonymous then.
Jessica Capshaw
You know what? She's not doing that on the Wicked tour.
Call It Crew
No, she is not doing that. No. Oh, man.
Jessica Capshaw
No.
Call It Crew
She's really funny, by the way. On snl. She's been, like, hosting and she's funny. She does your favorite. She does Jennifer Coolidge. She has an impressive person.
Jessica Capshaw
She made a great impression on Jenna Coolidge. Yeah, no, she's very funny.
Call It Crew
Okay, this was years ago, but it's still a secret between my friends and I to this day. My mom and dad got divorced when I was 16, and just a few months after the divorce, my younger sister told me she had suspicions that my dad was cheating on his new girlfriend who had just moved in with him after one month of dating. Our single family friend mentioned she saw my dad on a dating app. So being the bored 17 year olds we were, my friend and I put on our detective hats and made a fake dating profile. No surprise here, but we found him within an hour of searching, and he messaged our account within 20 minutes and asked to go on a date. And for our number, we made sure to ask if he was in a relationship. And he said, no, I'm single.
Jessica Capshaw
I need to know more. Where did this go? Do you tell Daddy Doos that you've been on the app and you trapped him?
Call It Crew
Yeah. Wow.
Jessica Capshaw
I mean, who is to be trusted?
Call It Crew
I. I mean, I don't even see my sister and I doing something like this.
Jessica Capshaw
I support this one.
Call It Crew
I mean, I think it's dark humor, but it's humor.
Jessica Capshaw
This is why I love the crew, because they're just willing to tell us, even if it's like, you know what? This makes me kind of look crazy and terrible. And they still. Yeah, they give it. They give us the goods. Okay. When I first got married to my now husband, a happy birthday card arrived at the house from his ex girlfriend. I threw it in the trash and never told him. I. I'm fine with that. I'm fine with it. Except I think it might be illegal.
Call It Crew
Yeah, right.
Jessica Capshaw
Whatever.
Call It Crew
The mail thing. Open someone else's mail? Yep.
Jessica Capshaw
So how does she know it's from the girlfriend? Ex girlfriend.
Call It Crew
Well, there's a return address. No return address. You put your name and return address on things.
Jessica Capshaw
Yeah, that's okay. If it gets accidentally, you know, a little coffee spilled on it, and then you throw it away.
Call It Crew
Set fire, too.
Jessica Capshaw
Could be illegal, though. Look it up.
Call It Crew
All right. You know how if you shop at Nordstrom's rack, you can accumulate points and discounts? I still use my ex's number, email. And whenever I go, I take his 10 to 20 discount based off his purchases and use them for myself. Smart. Smart person.
Jessica Capshaw
Wow.
Call It Crew
Okay, so whether that was naughty or.
Jessica Capshaw
Nice, it's a lot of naughty. There's a lot. Listen, we're learning the Call it crew. There's a lot of people on Santa's naughty list this year.
Call It Crew
I know, I know. And that's okay.
Jessica Capshaw
We've all been on the naughty list.
Call It Crew
But hopefully this has unburdened you. And our calling it what it is has made you hope for a brighter, less criminal future. And we're happy to be. Be a part of that process for you. So that's really all I got for you. That's all. That's all I got for you. What can you say?
Jessica Capshaw
Listen, I. I honestly.
Call It Crew
Peace be with you.
Jessica Capshaw
It cracks me. Peace be with you. It cracks me up. It's okay. We're all on the naughty list. We're all going to end. Oh, gosh. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah. And. But I think that we keep saying this. I think we need to hear more.
Call It Crew
Yeah. I mean, it's the gift. I keep saying this. It really is the gift that keeps on giving.
Jessica Capshaw
For New Year's, we need people to unburden themselves more, I think right before New Year.
Call It Crew
Yes.
Jessica Capshaw
New Year's resolution.
Call It Crew
Sometimes I get great pleasure in. Cause again, these were all anonymous. I get great pleasure in imagining I have an active imagination. People who listen to this podcast, like on a run or sitting by the ocean or on their commute to work or whatever, all of a sudden hearing us read their submission.
Jessica Capshaw
Yeah, yeah. Being like, oh, oh, oh, yeah, it's me, it's me, it's me.
Call It Crew
It's happening, it's happening. I used to do that. I used to actually, I used to call into Kiss FM in Los Angeles, which is where Ryan Seacrest lives, and I would just hope to be have my voice on the radio.
Jessica Capshaw
Really?
Call It Crew
Yeah. You'd have a call in or you would like. Yeah, there'd be contests to win something or you'd call in with an embarrassing story or you know, that kind of thing and. Yeah, I definitely did that, Leo.
