“Karen Locked on Balcony (Ambient Sound)” intro by David Kato [I’ve gotten locked out on our balcony once before, as documented in an old episode. Bizarrely, I managed to get audio of a neighbor on a bordering property going through the same experience, months after mine. Throughout the three combined clips, 1) she gets the attention of a passerby, they discuss how she got locked out (watering her plants), if her front door is unlocked, if she can climb down (there’s no point, she’d still be locked out), & if she’s called anyone. The passerby leaves to go check the manager’s office. 2) Karen hears back from her boyfriend, who can’t get there for a couple hours. 3) The passerby returns, saying that the property manager is on their way. You can hear Karen’s dog going berserk, barking from inside the unit as Karen waits helplessly, pondering her next dumb move to wreak havoc on the world.]

Today, we discuss the BS of receiving medical insurance bills a year later, the irony of fear-based gun ownership, the 401k retirement scam, acknowledging the side-effects of what you want, prayer & faith vs action & education, the BS banking practice of listing one large single purchase as multiple transactions, thoughts on the milk industry, and a conspiracy theory about preventing protests.
