Episode Overview

This episode of The Bert Show dives headfirst into delightfully awkward territory as listeners share "uncomfortable teacher-student encounters" and stories about bumping into educators (or students) in questionable situations. The second half of the show unpacks a hilarious-yet-bizarre dating drama involving mistaken identity in a family photo. In classic Bert Show style, the cast and callers exchange raw, honest reactions, plenty of laughs, and genuine attempts to crowdsource the truth.

Key Discussion Points & Insights

1. Awkward Teacher-Student Encounters in the Wild

(01:33 – 09:29)

• Main Theme: Teachers and students inevitably cross paths outside class—often in places they'd rather not.

• Highlights:

  • Bert introduces the topic, sharing a friend's discomfort at running into former students at Hooters and a strip club.
  • Listeners call in with cringe-worthy stories, including:
    • A teacher who drunkenly runs into a student and his parents at Dave & Buster’s during happy hour (02:07).
    • A high school senior bumps into her wrestling coach while shopping in an adult novelty store (Starship) (03:42).
    • A caller sees his old college professor leaving a peep booth at an adult store at 2 AM (04:54).
    • A former student recognizes her attractive English teacher "Lisa" at her sister’s party—awkwardness ensues (05:30).

• Notable Banter:

  • On failed attempts to act sober:

    "You think you're being cool, but you're fidgety and spitty..."
    -- Co-host Bert (02:53)

  • On men in adult stores:

    "Guys, it's almost like they're wearing trench coats and caps and sunglasses."
    -- Co-host Bert (04:38)

  • On when NOT to acknowledge a teacher:

    "If I'm walking out of a peep booth... that's not the time to approach me."
    -- Host Burt (06:40)

• Insight: Boundaries between teachers and students are blurry out in real life, making for unforgettably awkward encounters and some solid radio entertainment.

2. The Case of the Mystery Photo: Danny vs. Sandy

(09:44 – 23:03)

Background

Danny calls in with a wild story: After meeting Sandy at a party, he spots a suspiciously familiar, cozy picture of the two of them together on Sandy’s fridge when picking her up for a date. He is certain it's of them from two years ago—she insists it’s her and her brother.

The Confrontation

• Host Burt: Recaps the situation and opens lines for both Danny and Sandy.

• Sandy's Defense: She’s adamant—the man in the photo isn’t Danny, it's her little brother (in a red sweater, spiked hair). She offers to bring the photo to the studio as proof (13:15–15:42).

• Danny’s Stance:

  “It looks exactly like me. I mean, it’s me!”
  -- Danny (14:09)

  He maintains he studied the photo for over a minute and is convinced.

• Sandy counters:

  “If there’s a resemblance, I don’t see it.”
  -- Sandy (16:56)
  She points out that being attracted to Danny—and not her brother—proves her case.

• Tracy’s Producer Logic:
  “If someone’s unwilling to participate in proving something, that’s guilt right there.” (22:09)

• Show’s Solution:
  The team suggests Sandy brings in the original picture for date verification. If Danny emails a photo of himself, the hosts will compare and post both online for the audience to judge (18:10–18:26).

Listener Opinions

• Most (especially women) side with Sandy, believing her story is more plausible (19:26–19:41).
• One listener shares a similar doppelganger experience where even close friends were fooled, lending some credibility to Danny’s confusion (19:55–21:03).

The Final Twist

• Danny refuses to send a photo unless Sandy agrees to go out with him again (21:20–21:33).

• Producer Tracy (and the rest of the cast) see this as suspicious, if not slightly unhinged (21:34–22:16).

  • “To me, that says, Danny’s the nuts one.” – Tracy (21:34)

• The cast riffs:

  "He's not evil. He's just purdy."
  -- Host Burt (22:34) "Danny, you're so cute. You're so purty."
  -- Co-host Bert (22:36)

• They agree: Only the picture’s date will settle it. If Sandy delivers, she clears her name in “Listener Land.” If not, she’s dubbed “queen of crazy” (18:26–18:32).

3. Classic Phone Scam Segment – The Costco Sample Police

(26:50 – 30:39)

• A show favorite: The team prank-calls a woman, accusing her of “over sampling” cheese sticks at Costco and threatening to revoke her membership.
• Highlights:
  • She vehemently argues her innocence:

    “The samples were free. Hazel, or whatever her name is, said I could have some and I took some. I was hungry.” (28:46)

  • Host reveals the prank:

    “This is Jeff from the Bert Show at Q100 radio and you’ve just been phone scammed courtesy of your husband.” (30:30)

[Host Burt]

Purchased the Bird Show I was telling these guys that I have a friend that's been a teacher now for about 10 years. So now that they're graduated high school, he's starting to run into him in the most awkward places. And twice now this has happened. Once at a Hooters, one of his former students approaches him because she's a waitress and another one, one of his former students was dancing at a strip club. So this has got to happen to teachers all the time where years down the road you run into your former students in these uncomfortable places, you know. So good morning Kim. You're on all the hits. Q100 hi Hi.

[Caller Sandy]

This actually wasn't one of my former students at the time, it was my current student. So that probably made it Worse. I've been teaching for about three years, and this happened my first year of teaching.

A couple of friends and I decided that we wanted to go to happy hour at Dave and Buster's and have a good time. And about two hours into our drinking, I ran into my student and his parents.

[Co-host Bert]

Oh, God.

[Host Burt]

Oh, no, that's not gonna be good.

[Caller or Guest]

Yeah.

[Caller Sandy]

And at the time, I was trying to sober up. I was trying to stand straight to say, hi, how are you all doing? And what the bad part about it was, it was February, so I still had to see him for the rest of the year. And he and I taught eighth grade, so.

[Co-host Bert]

And, you know, in the drunk talking, like, you think you're being cool, but you're being fidgety and spitty, shifting from.

[Caller Sandy]

One foot to the other help the situation out at all.

[Co-host or Producer Tracy]

I would like to invent a device that you can wear on your shirt that would allow you to play back conversations once you hit a certain blood alcohol content. Like, once it detects so much on your breath. Because I can't tell you how many conversations I've had with people where in my mind I've gone. It's very nice to meet you, Melissa. Thank you so much for coming to Vision. I hope you have a great time in the next stage.

Sorry.

[Host Burt]

Morning, Jesse. You're on the virtual on all the hits. Q100.

[Caller or Guest]

Hey.

[Host Burt]

Hey.

[Caller Sandy]

Can y' all hear me okay?

[Host Burt]

Yeah, I can hear you fine.

[Caller or Guest]

Yeah.

[Caller Sandy]

Okay. Just making sure. I was. It was my senior year in high school. I'm a former student that ran into a teacher. I just turned 18, and I was excited about going to. Well, I went to Starship. Can I say that on the radio?

[Advertiser]

Sure.

[Host Burt]

Like, it's.

[Co-host Bert]

Yeah.

[Host Burt]

A starship is like an adult store. Yeah. It's got. Yeah.

[Caller Sandy]

And I was with a few friends outside of, Like, I knew outside of school, and I was with one girl from school, and we. I was a Mac girl for the wrestling team, and I ran into one of the wrestling coaches at Starship.

That's mortifying.

[Advertiser]

I was.

[Caller Sandy]

I made. And it was so bad as I made eye contact with them, and I just. All I could do was smile and, like, turn around.

[Co-host Bert]

Oh, man.

[Host Burt]

It doesn't matter which section you're in in Starship, you shouldn't be there.

[Caller or Guest]

Right?

[Caller Sandy]

Oh, my God.

[Co-host Bert]

And it was a male coach.

[Caller or Guest]

It was.

[Host Burt]

It was a male coach.

[Caller Sandy]

Yes, it was a male coach.

[Co-host Bert]

Because in those stores, like, women can go in and be somewhat relaxed and shopping around, and it's. Yeah. And they're Laughing. And they're having a good time, guys. It's almost like they're wearing trench coats and caps and sunglasses.

[Host Burt]

We won't make eye contact. We'll look down.

[Co-host Bert]

Yeah. So he was mortified by that.

[Host Burt]

What do you have there? Filter Anna. About 2 in the morning, after a.

[Caller or Guest]

Long night of drinking, me and an old ex girlfriend went to Insurrection. And we're there just playing around, laughing. Who comes walking out of one of the Pete booths? One of the viewing booths at one of my old college professors.

[Host Burt]

Oh, no, no.

[Caller Sandy]

Sith bastards.

[Host Burt]

No, you don't go into those things.

[Caller or Guest]

We made eye contact. He looked down and rushed out the door, never to be spoken of ever again. No.

[Co-host or Producer Tracy]

What course did he teach?

[Caller or Guest]

It was a history class.

[Host Burt]

Human sexuality Ethics or something. Good morning, Selena. You're on the Bird show and all the hits. Q100.

[Caller Sandy]

Good morning, guys. I'm 30 years old now, but when I was about 28, I graduated from a school in Atlanta called Henderson High School. And I was at my sister's room, and I'm checking out this girl across the room, and she is just so hot. And I walk over to her and she turns around and I fall flat on the floor. I say, Ms. Williams. And she's like, no, it's Lisa. I'm like, Ms. Williams. She's like, no, it's Lisa. I'm like, oh, my God. My high school English teacher.

[Caller or Guest]

In my.

[Host Burt]

Sister'S room is a lesbian.

[Co-host Bert]

Boss, I'm sure she really appreciates you saying her name on the radio, but.

[Caller Sandy]

Well, I introduced her to everyone as Ms. Williams. And she kept apologizing and saying, no, it's really Lisa.

[Co-host Bert]

Yeah, you need to protect the teacher. But, yeah, I think that's. That's gotta be.

[Host Burt]

Oh, that's gotta be uncomfortable. Totally uncomfortable. No more so than when she gets into school today.

[Co-host Bert]

Yeah, yeah, exactly. Um, but I think that, you know, we were saying off air, like you got the responsibilities. The former student, not to say anything.

[Host Burt]

You know, there are places where it's appropriate and places where you should probably just not bring it up. And that's probably one of them because.

[Co-host Bert]

Yeah, like, If I'm like, Mr. Weiss, Mr.

[Caller Sandy]

Wise.

[Co-host Bert]

I mean, you know what? Just leave it alone.

[Host Burt]

Yeah, if I'm walking out of a peep booth. Yeah. That's not the time to approach me.

[Caller or Guest]

Hey, Mr.

[Co-host Bert]

Wise, could you go ahead and save that?

[Host Burt]

Hey, Jay, you're on the Bird show on all the hits. Q100.

[Caller Danny]

Good morning, gang. What's going on?

[Host Burt]

Hey, man, you tell us.

[Caller Danny]

Hey, I can't believe when you brought this up. I almost ran off the road here because I probably only told a couple people this story about 10 years ago. It had to be about 10 years ago because I'm 39 now. I was up in Vegas at a bachelor party and a bunch of us went out to this club and I met this woman older than I was, hot. I mean, we just kicked it off. You know, I'm kind of thinking about, you know, this is going to be like one of those little wine night things. And that's fine. But come to find out, we lived in the same town in Maryland. So we're like, all right, cool. So we started hooking up and it was about maybe six months into the relationship that, you know, she was a teacher there. And, you know, we started talking about her past and everything. She said she used to be a teacher in Texas. And I said, well, you know, I used to go to school in Texas also. You know, where'd you teach at? And when she told me, she ended up being. She was my seventh grade teacher.

[Co-host Bert]

How random is that?

[Advertiser]

God.

[Co-host Bert]

And you didn't even realize it for six months?

[Caller Danny]

No, no, she.

[Caller Sandy]

Cause she, she.

[Caller Danny]

Her name. I won't say her name. Cause I only, you know, I don't know if anybody knows or anything. But she had gotten divorced. So, you know, her first name was the same name as my teachers, but I didn't put the two together. And her last name was definitely different.

[Co-host Bert]

Well, and a lot of people are thinking about their seventh grade teacher, Vegas.

[Caller Danny]

She was a hottie then. And of course, you know, here it is, your seventh grade. So, you know, most kids already got their hot, you know, got the hots for their teacher anyway. And then for me to run into her, you know, and it's like we were together like six and a half.

[Host Burt]

Seven months before you put it all together.

[Caller or Guest]

Total Thornbirds moment.

[Co-host or Producer Tracy]

Surprise.

[Co-host Bert]

And, you know, he had to pull out that annual or that little yearbook. He didn't want to, but he did.

[Host Burt]

Hey, Dana, you'll be the last call. Thank you for calling.

[Co-host Bert]

Hi.

[Caller Sandy]

I was doing my student. Well, I was doing like a practicum before your student teaching. And the teacher was telling me about some of her, you know, some of the kids in the class. And this one kid looked really familiar. And I, you know, it was a small town where I went to college and so I figured I'd probably seen him around town. He's a good looking kid. I was like, you know, 20. He was like, oh, 18. And she started telling me he was on the football team and all this stuff. And I realized I had met him before and he had told me the same story, but that he was in college and we had hooked up at a party.

And then I was like, oh, and that's to teach this guy.

[Host Burt]

Oh, no. So he lied about his age, and you hooked up with him, and then you ended up being his teacher.

[Caller Sandy]

Yeah.

[Host Burt]

Beautiful.

[Co-host Bert]

That's great.

[Host Burt]

All right, Dana, thank you for calling.

[Co-host Bert]

Bye.

[Caller or Guest]

Bye.

[Caller Sandy]

Bye.

[Host Burt]

The bird Show. For those of you that weren't listening yesterday, let me just recap for you the phone call that we took from Danny.

[Caller Danny]

I was at a party, and there was this girl there that I. I'd seen her before. So we were talking, and, you know, it was kind of nice, and she's cute and stuff. So I said, well, why don't we. Let's have a drink sometime, you know, let's go out. Well, I ended up setting it up that we went out on Thursday, and I went to go pick her up at her house, and I look on her refrigerator, and there's this picture of her and I framed on the refrigerator. And I don't. I don't remember the picture. I mean, we're just sitting there with our arm around each other, smiling, and I. And it. And I don't think it's from recently. I think it's from a couple years ago because my hair's different and there's, like, this shirt that I was wearing, and it kind of freaked me out a little bit, you know?

[Host Burt]

So here we are, harping it back to the present.

Hey, Danny, you there?

[Caller Danny]

Yeah, I'm here.

[Host Burt]

How you doing, man?

[Caller Danny]

I'm okay.

[Host Burt]

All right.

[Co-host Bert]

Did you get a lot of response.

[Caller Sandy]

From your friends yesterday?

[Caller Danny]

Yeah, they're all kind of razzing me a little.

[Co-host or Producer Tracy]

Are you excited or nervous?

[Caller Danny]

You know, A little. Both.

[Host Burt]

Well, I will tell you that all the email that I got yesterday and the phone calls that we got yesterday, also, we're pretty much all in the same camp going, dude, you gotta run now.

[Caller Danny]

Right, right. My friends were saying that too, yesterday, I'm sure.

[Co-host Bert]

But a lot of women ran to her defense, too, saying, wait, you gotta get the other side of the story. You gotta know what's going on before you can figure out, you know, before you can really place the psycho title above her door.

[Host Burt]

Okay, Now, Jeff, before I put Sandy on with us, does she know what she's coming on the radio for or how do I handle this?

[Co-host or Producer Tracy]

No, I think she knows why she's here.

[Host Burt]

She does.

[Caller Sandy]

Okay.

[Host Burt]

Hey, Sandy.

[Co-host or Producer Tracy]

She knows what's expected of her.

[Caller Sandy]

Hi.

[Co-host Bert]

Hey, Sandy.

[Advertiser]

Hi.

[Host Burt]

How are you today?

[Caller Sandy]

I'm pretty good. How are you guys doing?

[Host Burt]

Good. Sandy, you want to say hi to Danny?

[Caller Sandy]

Hi, Danny.

[Caller Danny]

Hey, what's up?

[Caller Sandy]

Hi. Not a lot.

[Host Burt]

All right, Sandy, Danny came on with us yesterday, and he was a little bit concerned for his health.

[Caller Sandy]

Right.

[Host Burt]

That. You know, he said that you guys met at a party, like, a week or two ago, and you're over at the keg, and he thinks you're hot and all you guys have this killer chemistry. So he decides to get your phone number, and then a couple of days later goes out on a date with you. And when he shows up at your house and you're getting ready, he goes to the refrigerator and he notices that there's a picture of you and he on it, kind of arm in arm together. That was taken, like, two years ago, and you never mentioned it to him. And he's just a little weird about it.

[Co-host or Producer Tracy]

It's a little weird that it's on your fridge.

[Caller Sandy]

Um, yeah, Danny. Yeah, I would have mentioned that to you, but that's my brother.

[Caller or Guest]

What?

[Caller Sandy]

Yeah, that is me and my brother.

[Caller Danny]

You're. No, I think. I mean. No, I'm talking about the one on your fridge.

[Caller Sandy]

I know. I know exactly what you're talking about. I'm standing in front of the refrigerator. I'm looking right at it right now. It's in the middle of the fridge. It's got a blue frame around it. I've got my arm around him. I'm wearing, like, a black sweater. I've got little diamond earrings on. We're at a family holiday party. Like, there's a bunch of people in the background holding red cups.

[Caller Danny]

Yeah, exactly.

[Caller Sandy]

I mean, my brother's wearing, like, a red sweater. His hair's spiked up. That's exactly what you're talking about.

[Caller Danny]

It's me from two years ago. I mean, I had this red sweater, the same thing.

[Caller Sandy]

I think there's more than one red sweater on the planet.

[Host Burt]

Wait a second. Hold on. Sandy, are you saying that your brother looks so much like Danny that Danny would look at a picture and say, that's me?

[Caller Sandy]

Well, personally, I don't think so, because I'm not really attracted to my brother, and I thought Danny was pretty cute. But if you don't believe me, I can bring the picture down to the radio station right now.

[Host Burt]

Okay, I'd love to see it, but.

[Co-host Bert]

We have to see a picture of Danny to make a comparison of the two. Right?

[Co-host or Producer Tracy]

I just want to show the Picture to Danny and have him say, is this the one you saw?

[Caller Sandy]

Fine.

[Host Burt]

Or get a picture of Danny. Also have him email us one or whatever so we can compare the two. I don't know how this matches up though, this.

[Co-host or Producer Tracy]

Danny, let me ask you a question.

[Caller Danny]

It looks exactly like me.

[Co-host or Producer Tracy]

Danny, let me ask you a question. You're in the. What time did you pick her up for the date? Do you remember?

[Caller Danny]

It was like between 7, 7:30 sometime in there.

[Co-host or Producer Tracy]

Were there any lights on in the kitchen?

[Caller Danny]

Oh yeah, yeah.

[Co-host or Producer Tracy]

Like it was bright.

[Caller Danny]

Well, yeah, pretty well. I mean the one over the sink.

[Co-host or Producer Tracy]

Was on, but I mean, was the refrigerator bright? Like, could you see the picture clearly?

[Caller Danny]

I saw it pretty clearly and it looks. I mean, it's me.

[Co-host or Producer Tracy]

Were you able to study it?

[Caller Danny]

I saw it, yeah. I saw it for like a minute, minute and a half.

[Host Burt]

I mean, you know what you look like obviously. So if you're looking at a picture of you.

[Caller Danny]

That's what I'm saying.

[Co-host Bert]

It seems to me like we. Because Sandy's willing to give us the picture and it's got. I mean, if there's a way that we can see Danny in person, we've got, you know, or get a picture.

[Host Burt]

Of what Danny looked like two years ago.

[Caller Sandy]

Seriously, I'm happy to bring it down there. You guys are gonna look at it and you're gonna be like that I'm not psycho, that he must have been drunk when he was looking because it's my brother. I don't know what else to tell you.

[Co-host or Producer Tracy]

And obviously, when was the picture with your brother taken?

[Caller Sandy]

It was a holiday party.

[Co-host Bert]

Yeah. How long ago?

[Caller Sandy]

Oh God, a couple maybe now it's been like six weeks.

[Host Burt]

I guess none of this makes any sense.

[Co-host Bert]

She said six weeks. So that picture was taken with her brother just six weeks ago?

[Caller Sandy]

Yeah.

[Host Burt]

And Danny, you think this is a picture taken of you and she two years ago?

[Caller Danny]

It looks exactly like me two years ago.

And of course I don't know what to tell you.

[Caller Sandy]

It's my brother.

[Co-host Bert]

Hey, will you take that frame off around the corner of it and see if there's a date on it?

[Caller Sandy]

I actually think there's, you know how like the developers print on the back. Yeah, yeah, it's probably on there. I don't know, I'd have to unglue the thing from the frame. But I'll bring it down there. You guys can do it. So you'll know that I didn't even like alter the photo or anything.

[Host Burt]

So you'll bring that picture down here right now. And we could. We could look at the date on the back of it.

[Caller Sandy]

Yeah, if that's what you need. So, you know, we could put this whole thing to bed. I'd be happy to do it because.

[Co-host Bert]

I think Sandy's tired of being called psycho all day yesterday. Right, Right.

[Host Burt]

I'm really confused.

[Co-host Bert]

I am, too.

[Host Burt]

I'm really confused.

[Co-host Bert]

I think either way, the whole dating thing isn't gonna work out so well.

[Caller Danny]

I mean, I don't know. I mean, it seems like it was just a misunderstanding. I mean, well, how can you.

[Host Burt]

But how can you look at a picture of yourself two years ago and not realize it's not you?

[Caller Danny]

I mean. Cause it looks. I mean, it's me. Like, if you see it. If you looked at pictures side by side, you would be amazed at the.

[Co-host or Producer Tracy]

But it's not you.

[Host Burt]

Well, that's what she's saying now.

[Co-host Bert]

Sandy, do your brother and Danny have, like, a resemblance? I mean, is there something about them that you would consider looking the same?

[Caller Sandy]

No, that would be totally creepy.

[Host Burt]

So you don't think they look anything alike at all?

[Co-host Bert]

Well, that's why she made. Made the comment earlier that she's not attracted to her brother, because that would, you know, like, she thinks that that's, like, an uncomfortable comparison, saying that her brother looks like the guy that she's dating, you know?

[Caller Sandy]

Yeah. I mean, if there's a resemblance, I don't see it.

[Co-host or Producer Tracy]

Did you have spiky hair however many years ago you think this is?

[Caller Danny]

Like, two years ago? Because I haven't had that sweater for two years.

And. Yeah, and I did. It was much shorter than.

[Co-host Bert]

So. Well, I think the date. I mean, like she said, if we can find a date on that picture, like, you know, Jen's suggestion, maybe that would answer the question then game over.

[Host Burt]

At that point. Yeah, it's Suzanne.

[Caller Sandy]

Run, Danny, run.

[Co-host or Producer Tracy]

I believe her.

[Host Burt]

Why are you saying. Yeah, why are you. Why are you choosing to believe him?

[Caller Sandy]

Like, if she's wackadoo that she's got this picture, I'd be thinking she's just gonna go, oh, yeah, I'm pretty bizarre.

[Co-host or Producer Tracy]

It's a picture of her and her brother.

[Co-host Bert]

She's willing to bring the picture in and post it on the Internet. So, I mean, she's willing to.

[Caller Sandy]

Really not well.

[Co-host or Producer Tracy]

What are you talking about, not well? Who's not well?

[Co-host Bert]

She thinks that Sandy's just in total denial because she doesn't want to be busted being a psycho. I know what you're saying.

[Caller Sandy]

One or the other is.

[Host Burt]

Well, I guess the proof Would be. I mean, Sandy, if you come down here with the picture, then obviously.

[Caller Sandy]

Yeah, well, now I really think I have to, because everybody in, like, your listener land thinks I'm nuts.

[Co-host Bert]

Listener land? Well, I think the good news is.

[Host Burt]

Our listener land is just a really, really small little island.

[Co-host Bert]

I think Bert's suggestion is. Is the best one where Sandy brings a picture down, Danny emails us a picture, we post them both up. We do check the date on Sandy's picture to see if there's a date, but post pictures up and put it to listener land. That's true.

[Host Burt]

And Sandy, I think if you don't show up with the picture, then you get anointed queen of crazy listener land.

[Caller Sandy]

Okay, fine.

[Host Burt]

All right. I'm gonna put you guys both back on hold. Okay?

[Caller Sandy]

Okay.

[Caller or Guest]

All right.

[Host Burt]

I'm not exactly sure where to go with this. Cause I have never heard anything like this in my life.

[Co-host Bert]

Yeah. What do you do?

[Co-host or Producer Tracy]

Take a couple of these phone calls first. Then Tracy's got to tell you about the conversations you just had with one of those people. But after you talk to these guys, leave them on hold, because I want to see if their opinion changes. After Tracy tells you about the conversation.

[Host Burt]

Ooh, that one's not going to work. Morning. All the hits Q100.

[Caller Sandy]

This poor girl. Y' all still have people calling in saying that she's psycho. You know, yesterday I thought maybe she's like a woman scorn. It's flat with her next party. He doesn't even recognize her. You know, he's just. She's just trying to get back at him. But if this is her brother, if he was standing there, he never. A while ago, he said he wasn't sure, you know, what the future of their dating was. You're not gonna date her. You're a mom. You put her on the radio. And this is a picture of her brother. I completely believe her.

[Host Burt]

All right, so in your mind, she's telling the truth and Danny is lying?

[Caller Sandy]

Absolutely. I mean, he saw the picture. It might resemble him, and he saw it, and he doubt about it.

[Host Burt]

Hold on one second.

[Caller Sandy]

This poor girl.

[Host Burt]

One second.

[Co-host or Producer Tracy]

You're on Sandy's side then?

[Caller Sandy]

Hands down, yes, absolutely. You know what? Y' all need to put his picture on the website. Just when y' all do, so every girl in Atlanta can go look at it.

[Host Burt]

Hold on one second. Okay. Hey, Mike, you're on all the hits. Q100.

[Caller Danny]

I was talking to someone in a chat room, and they emailed me a picture of them and a group of friends and I swore that the guy in the picture was me, and I thought it was a big joke, and it was someone I knew on the other end. And I kept on saying, look, that's real funny. Who are you? You know, that's me, yada yada. And really and truly, I showed it to my roommate. He was like, well, it's got a real great resemblance to you. But it really wasn't me. It was somebody else. It happened to me where I really thought that that was a picture of me and the Wetlaw being emailed to me, but it wasn't.

[Co-host or Producer Tracy]

Mike is the one person in the world who's met his doppelganger.

[Caller Danny]

And it really was that spooky. It made, like, all the hair stand up on my head. It was just really weird. It looked exactly like me. And that was, to me, I'm just.

[Co-host Bert]

I guess I'm just confused by. I can't imagine me looking at a picture and with the people that are in the picture in the place where I am, and not. I would know if it's me or not.

[Host Burt]

All right, Mike, so in your mind, then, you think that Danny's in the wrong here?

[Caller Danny]

Well, no, I think that Danny may have looked at the picture and really honestly thought it was him, because I'm a very practical person who did the same thing. I went on for hours and hours that.

[Co-host or Producer Tracy]

That was me.

[Caller or Guest]

That was me.

[Caller Danny]

That was me. I was calling friends, emailing it to them to verify it, and it happened to me. I feel I'm very practical. He may have thought, really and truly, that was him years ago.

[Host Burt]

Yeah, he obviously does. All right, thank you.

[Caller or Guest]

All right.

[Co-host Bert]

But then after, you know, calling Sandy a psycho for a whole day, I think.

Producer Tracy, Danny will not send.

[Advertiser]

Us a picture unless Sandy goes back out with him. What?

[Co-host Bert]

So she's willing to send. She's willing to scan a picture as.

[Caller Sandy]

Soon as she gets to work, but.

[Advertiser]

He won't send us a picture.

[Host Burt]

I don't know what that says.

[Co-host or Producer Tracy]

To me, that says, danny's the nuts one.

[Host Burt]

Why?

[Co-host or Producer Tracy]

Because. Why wouldn't.

[Host Burt]

Why would he want to go out with her anyway? She's such a dad.

[Co-host Bert]

Exactly. That's why he thinks. I think he's realizing, you know what?

[Host Burt]

I could have been wrong.

[Co-host Bert]

Maybe it was because he said earlier, because I told Bert off air in the hallway, I said, you know what? Here's Danny just trying to get sex. He's.

[Host Burt]

Well, maybe it was a misunderstanding.

[Co-host or Producer Tracy]

Here's the best part about it. The guy in the picture, her brother, is 17 and Danny's what, 24? So he mistook himself for a 17 year old two years ago.

I totally believe her.

[Co-host Bert]

This is so bizarre.

[Co-host or Producer Tracy]

Ask Carrie if that changes.

[Co-host Bert]

I think it's, you know, in any situation, if someone is unwilling to participate in proving something, then that. That's guilt right there.

[Host Burt]

Hey, Anisha.

[Caller Sandy]

Yeah, I'm still here. See? Poor girl. He is one step away from Jerry Spring.

[Co-host Bert]

So I guess I just think maybe poor Danny, I don't know, maybe he's not so bright. I don't know if he's evil. I just think, you know, he just gets easily confused.

[Host Burt]

He's not evil. He's just purdy.

[Co-host Bert]

Yeah, Danny, you're so cute.

[Host Burt]

You're so purty.

[Co-host or Producer Tracy]

I'm willing to bet that Danny at one point in his career identified his occupation as seventh year senior. Like I can almost guarantee that.

[Host Burt]

So at this point, what do we do we have closure on this or do we wait for Sandy? If she brings a picture down, then that's possible.

[Co-host or Producer Tracy]

Sandy brings a picture down to us.

[Co-host Bert]

Then I want to sit, check the date on the picture. I want to see if there's a.

[Host Burt]

Date, then that's proof positive at that point.

[Co-host or Producer Tracy]

Get it.

[Host Burt]

[Host Burt]

First, we'll start off the show today with a classic phone scam.

[Co-host or Producer Tracy]

You can always go. If you're looking for someplace to go to dinner, you can always go to Costco and wander the aisles and just feast on the samples that they provide you. The problem is you sample too much, they eventually throw you out.

[Caller Sandy]

Hello?

[Co-host or Producer Tracy]

Hi, I'm looking for Stacy.

[Caller Sandy]

This is Stacy.

[Co-host or Producer Tracy]

Stacy, Todd Lolly calling Wolfsock Warehouse. Yeah, I don't have a lot of time to deal with this because I'm backed up with a ton of stuff, but we're yanking your membership. We're gonna process a refund and get it back to you.

[Caller Sandy]

What are you talking about?

[Co-host or Producer Tracy]

That's gonna take. We yank your membership due to an over sampling issue.

[Caller Sandy]

Sampling? Sampling what?

[Co-host or Producer Tracy]

Were you in the store this past weekend?

[Caller Sandy]

Yeah, I shop there all the time.

[Co-host or Producer Tracy]

Right. And did you sample any food, snacks, anything that our elderly.

[Caller Sandy]

My husband and I were in there. We might have sampled a couple of things, but what's illegal about that?

[Co-host or Producer Tracy]

Did you sample the cheese sticks?

[Caller Sandy]

Well, yeah.

[Co-host or Producer Tracy]

And how many did you sample, please?

[Caller Sandy]

I don't know, one or two.

[Co-host or Producer Tracy]

And how many did your husband sample?

[Caller Sandy]

Maybe a couple. What's the big deal?

[Co-host or Producer Tracy]

You had four cheese sticks according to our videotape. And Hazel, the woman at the counter and your husband had five.

[Caller Sandy]

Well, it was lunchtime. I was hungry.

[Co-host or Producer Tracy]

Right, but this isn't a. The restaurant is in the front of the store. It's not while you're walking through. If anybody sampled four or five cheesesteaks, we'd go broke. Did you also take some hay?

[Caller Sandy]

I don't know what your deal is, but the samples were free. And Hazel, or whatever her name is, she said I could have some and I took some. I was hungry.

[Co-host or Producer Tracy]

She said you could have one.

Just for your information, all of our sampleese people who give you the samples, they're all wired for sound. They also have call buttons on it.

[Caller Sandy]

Wired for sound? What are you talking about?

[Co-host or Producer Tracy]

She was the first one to alert us to the incident.

[Caller Sandy]

But it was supposed to be free. I don't understand what this is all about.

[Co-host or Producer Tracy]

One of them is supposed to be free.

[Caller Sandy]

So what Are you saying that I stole them because I took more than one?

[Co-host or Producer Tracy]

I'm saying that if you read. Did you read your membership agreement? Did you read your membership agreement? Answer me. Did you read your member. All right. Now, if you read your membership agreement, you would see that we have a serious over sampling problem. By signing that agreement, you agree to not take more than one sample of any product in the store.

[Caller Sandy]

Well, that must be in the fine print, mister. I didn't know anything about over sampling and I think you're nuts.

[Co-host or Producer Tracy]

The bottom line, honey, is you violated the terms of the policy.

[Caller Danny]

Don't.

[Caller Sandy]

What is your name?

[Co-host or Producer Tracy]

The bottom line, sweetheart, is that you violated the policy. You violated the terms not only by taking one extra sample, but by taking.

1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 extra samples between you and your husband.

So you're.

[Caller Sandy]

This has got to be a joke.

[Co-host or Producer Tracy]

You're out.

[Caller Sandy]

Good Lord.

[Co-host or Producer Tracy]

All right, fine. You're out. And we're going to refund your the rest of your membership fee. And we're also gonna ask you to staff the property, okay?

[Caller Sandy]

I don't want to be a part of your stupid club anyway.

[Co-host or Producer Tracy]

Okay, Great. Then you know what? Everything's okay, right?
