"This 108, it's the best civilian Lisa in the morning." Here we go, welcome in Saturday morning just in here. Yes, I have your best moments from the Billy and Lisa Show 5 to 1. Let's get right into it. Number 5, with the Olympics going on, how about this list? Has to do with yes, the Olympics, and also your Zodiac sign. These are hot tips if you're watching the Olympics, number 5. The Olympic event you should watch based on your Zodiac sign. And I went through them, and I know that Justin, you are a Virgo. I am. I even have the tattoo on my arm, the most regrettable tattoo you've ever seen in your life, but that's neither. I really like that you have that, actually. Nothing appeals to a Virgo quite like archery, okay? Archery. This sport requires focus, mental toughness, and precision. And as an earth sign, Justin, who loves perfection, it truly ticks all of your boxes. Okay, precision. So this is archery? Yes. Like bow and arrow. Yes. Oh, you're up there in New Hampshire. You could easily have a bow and arrow, I think a lot of people do, right? Easy. I mean, I like to think I can stay focused. Yes, I thought this was perfect for you. Yeah, okay. I'm on board now with this. I was going to get some dinner for family. The other one, which is actually extremely spot on is Billy's, Capricorn. Nothing screams Olympics quite like a grueling triathlon. And that's right up your alley, Billy, as a gritty, hardworking Capricorn. Okay. What are the odds of actually run to triathlons? I was going to say that. Yeah. Yeah. It's really makes sense. It's like it's freakish. Okay. The one that doesn't make sense is winning. Well, nothing about Winnie. No, again, I don't even know what this is. So Winnie is a Sagittarian, her birthday is on December 1st. While the rest of Team USA is in the Olympic, actually, this does actually make perfect sense. While the rest of Team USA is in the Olympic Village in Paris, France, the surfers are out on a cruise ship in Tahiti, which is home to some of the biggest waves in the world. And it's everything you could ever want as an adventurous Sagittarius. I mean, I'd much rather be in Tahiti than Paris. Right. So I'll go with it. Well, you are adventurous. You go on vacations by yourself. Right, yeah. A lot of Florida by yourself. Yeah. I put myself in many bad situations due to my curiosity. Yeah. So if you're on the boat into Tahiti. Yeah. I don't know if you're going to be doing much surfing. No, I don't know. You're on a surfboard. No. I'd like to watch the surfers. I'm sure they look good. Unless you're strapped to the surfboard, possibly. And then I'm a Leo. So this is my month right now. It's the fire sign and it's ruled by the sun. And it says that I will be living for all things track and field, especially the heart pounding 200 meter sprints and the sweat inducing relays. And I have to say, this is spot on because I love running outside and I like running when it's super hot. Oh, yeah. So it makes sense. That does make sense. Yeah. Lisa will call me. She's about to go for a 10 mile run. It's 96 degrees out. What is producer Riley? I'm turning. She is a March. She's a Pisces. I love Pisces. Both my parents are Pisces. Right. That's like. That's right. Pisces is the ultimate sign. Yeah. Pisces, you should watch the Olympic sport that focus on people working together. Producer Riley, like beach volleyball. Oh, that sounds like I could see her. Yeah. Absolutely. Yeah. Yeah. Wow. I like this. This made sense. We all suddenly make sense. I'm going to start getting into this astrological stuff. All the Capricorn stuff? Yeah. It seems to make sense. And the predictions are true. Wow. Who knew? The Capricorn's like nervous wrecks that just. Then there's that. I didn't mention that. And Lisa's. No, no. She did it. It said you were a hard-working and gritty. Yeah. And we're going with that. Yeah. Okay. Can you tell me what July is? So it would be July. Cancer. She got your wife's a cancer. Yeah. Cancer. You want me to read that? Okay. Thankful stories this year like how 22-year-old tennis player Coco Gough is making her Olympic debut. Well, that didn't really go well. Yeah. I mean, she was in and out. Okay. It was a long time ago. Yeah. As an emotional water sign, cancer, consider inviting friends to watch with you so you can cheer together. Are you inquiring about your wife, Jen? I am, but I'm actually more concerned about the Gemini. Your daughter? Do you want us to go through every sign in your life? Excuse me. Do you have something else that you need to talk about? No, no. It's fine. Let's keep going. Just at least just go through it. It's fine. We'll talk about you, sir, for a girl. Yeah. Yeah. That makes no sense. All right. Big event going down at Giggles on Route 1 in August this weekend, they're calling it a nasty event. A lot of great comedians, including our buddy, Lenny Clark, who stopped by the studio yesterday. We love Lenny. Number four, buddy. It's Paula in Boston. I just wanted to say hi to my friend Lenny. Lenny. Hi, Paula. Hi, Paula from StretchLab. Oh, my God. I love you. Yeah, Lenny used to come into StretchLab and Medford and get stretched. Haven't seen him in a while. I've got that in. I will be back in next week. StretchLab. Oh. Oh, I'm telling you. Well, you know, the one thing with Brady and Brady played all those years without getting her. You don't get hurt once. Yeah. Pliable. I looked into the StretchLab and they had a StretchLab and Medford, and I had this guy. I swear to God. I used to know like my touch of my body, but this guy, it wasn't touching. He was gross. I came up taller. I mean, it's unbelievable. And I think, you know, as you get older, you got to stretch things out. Oh, yeah. I totally agree. You can pull a hand me running for the elevator. But I'm like you, when I get a massage, it has to be a woman. Yeah. And what happens if it's a guy and something moves? Yeah. And you have to be, you know, you have to be so weird. He's dead. Not me. Are you in transition? Because my lower back is bad. Oh, man. So you've got like a festival going on out at Giggles. Your brother Michael still running out there? Not only is he still running these, but I fired my agent and had him, I hired him because he's always been my manager. But when I hired him, I got the DraftKings commercial. Then I got the Super Bowl commercial for Sam Adams, then the TV show. And I mean, keeping it in a family. Yeah. DraftKings commercial I'd like. Oh, yeah. I love doing that. Yeah. Poppy in there. Oh, God. Yeah. Like I told you, I was going to be home for the whole summer and then show got canceled. And I felt horrible, you know, because, man, there's not many chances left. And then I saw Tom Selleck all of them. I might lose my ranch. I go, what? I go, you magnet PI, 12 years of blue bloods. I mean, hey, if you're going to lose your ranch, why don't you get one of those reverse mortgages like you're screwing all the other people out of the state of your ranch and you can live there as long as you want. Yeah. I saw that commercial with Selleck, I'm like, really? Wow. Oh, it's good. They're good people. Okay. So Justin is going to Aruba and it's like your second home. You've gone there for years and years and years. He's got a problem. He was wiped out of all his money. Credit cards are all maxed out by a scam artist. Okay. So he's a little nervous going down. First and foremost, American Express, do they accept American Express in Aruba? Yes, they do. They certainly do. Are we sure? Hi, Justin. My friend was just in Aruba in June and I saw her yesterday and we were talking about her trip and credit cards and such and American Express is not accepted in Aruba. Okay. I just want you to know. What? Okay. The mayor of Aruba. What's with the American Express? Yes or no? Because he's going to be stranded there. Well, I know you'll help him out, but with another kind. I loaned him a credit. Yeah. Yeah. Well, I don't know where this woman's going, but I mean, a lot of the high end places take it. Yeah. I remember going. I feel like, again, it's business to business. Yes. Honey? Yes. You and I here. What's the most expensive restaurant in Aruba? Oh. Because, you know, I have Billy's card. Oh. Jumanji. Jumanji. Yeah. I'm saying it wrong, but you've said it. I'll tell you what. It's really hard to get in. It's very expensive. It's terrific. Okay. Great. Can you make a call for him? Yes. I got Jumanji. Really? Why would you encourage that? He has your card. You weren't kidding? No. He wasn't kidding. It's for emergencies. Oh, the emergencies. Okay. It's the backup card. But he's going to have, what do you recommend in Aruba besides Jumanji? What should he do? Where should he go? It's just he and his wife. No kids. Oh, oh, you're going to have every restaurant is fantastic or they'd be out of business. I mean, there's so many great restaurants. There's a place called barefoot on the beach where you come, you take your shoes off, you sit right on the beach, watch sunset. No. And the food is outrageous. It's fabulous. Oh, yeah. That's another great one. Is there a reason you're not taking notes because this is good stuff you're picking? That I've heard about. I'm looking for things I have not heard about. Okay. Oh, you heard about that. I did hear about that. I heard about another place called Eagle Beach. Oh, yes. Eagle Beach. Oh, it's one of the top 10 beaches in the world. Yeah. Yeah. You love that. Very, very good. Can you stay on Eagle Beach? Yeah. We have there. There are when I guys, I used to stay at the Aruba Beach Club, which is the low rises and full kitchen. It's cooking turkeys down, everything, fish, you know, all the stuff, you don't want to cook in your house because it's things up to house. The neighbors go to your cook and they go, "Turkey, come on over." And you do comics come home every year, Dennis Leary, of course, is the guy. Oh, yes. Do you talk to him a lot? Oh, yeah. Yeah. You know, he's one of the hardest working guys in show business. He's always working, you know, and he's, he's doing a movie right now in Atlanta with Michelle Fife, he plays, she plays his wife and that's all I know, and she's married to David Kelly. Yes, she is. Oh, really? Yeah. She's married to David Kelly for Michelle Fife. David Kelly, he wrote Boston Legal, you know, The Practice, you know, he just, uh, wrote Presume Dinescent with Jake Tully, huh? I just watched that. That's a David Kelly project? Yes. David Kelly, whatever. Yeah. David E Kelly is right. Yeah. They've been married for decades. Yeah. I mean, we're at the forum and he goes, "Loney, I'm so excited you want to do the show with me?" I go, "I've been waiting 25 years for this call. I can meet your wife." Well, she was Scarface's wife and Scarface. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. She's great and everything, you know. And a theater. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Tell me more about this festival that's happening at Giggles. Okay. You got Christine earlier? Yeah, she's fantastic. We love her. We haven't seen her in a while. I know. It's Sweeney, you know what I mean? Yeah. And Sweeney was, he was doing movies left on right till COVID hit, you know, and we're still getting over. We're still getting back over COVID, you know what I mean? So anyway, it's Thursday, Friday answer. Tonight. It starts tonight. It starts tonight. Wow. Absolutely. Yeah. You can just go to Giggles. Yeah. Go to Giggles. Go to Giggles. Yeah. Go to Giggles. Go to Giggles. Go to Giggles. Go to Giggles. It's probably played. Christine, cause we're all headliners. So you've got three headliners working one show. So it's, it's, it's, it's going to be a lot. It's going to be right. You know what that is. It's nasty. Hey, everybody. Happy Saturday. Justin here with the best moments from the Billie and Lisa show this week. Number three, all about pizza, Dave Portnite, obviously one bite. Everybody knows the rules. He's been all around Massachusetts, which sparked this conversation. Where's the best pizza? Nicole. What have you got for us? Oh my gosh. Hi, everybody, Joni's pizza and Tom Fert. I live in Tom Fert. There's still lines outside of it. And you have to call like five hours before you actually want your food to be ready because yeah, because every single time they say, oh, you know, our next pick of time is not until whenever. Now, is it, is it, is the pizza really that good? I've had. Your best would you ever had? And like, and like, I mean, and I've like been to Italy like twice. Uh huh. In case you, if you just tuned in, we're talking about Dave Portnite from Barstool. He does the pizza thing and he hit like several places within the Boston area in the past two weeks just recently. And Joni's is the one he named the best pizza ever. Last summer. Yep. Okay. Good call. Let's go to Marie. Everybody wants to talk about pizza. Marie, what have you got? Sorry. Of course you had a kick up now. I'm picking up my coffee for work. My point is, um, Bertos in the North end hand down. Yeah. Okay. It's funny you bring that up because for years, that's been my favorite. It's Galleria and Berto. It's right on Hanover Street. And I love this place because they've got one of the best Sicilian pizzas on the planet. They also have other Italian delights, like Arancini and Panzorati and right on my lion. I got right over here. Okay. You got rid of her. I'll show many people. Yeah. Well, it's pizza time. Robert, Robert, what have you got for us? I live in the West as a best bestie. I have a time to send for a church. I can't understand what Robert has a bad time. I think Dave's in Medfield. Yeah, I get a bad connection. Let's go back to the previous caller. I'm picking up my coffee for work. All right. Never mind. Next caller. Go to Bill. Hey, Bill. Good morning, Bill. Good morning. I have the best one going. It's a 621 cavern involved in sports bar. Ooh. Okay. Is that new? Next to town line. Oh, no. They've been there 30 years. Next to town line. Okay. All right. Now it's mixed. All right. What is so good about pizza? Oh, is it mixed 360? Yeah. Yeah. Right in the closet, next door where the Dunkin' Donuts is. It's the best. I don't know. The best cheese, the best sauce. Everything is great about it. No. Are you sure you're not calling because your brother owns the place or it's your uncle Tony? No. No. I'm good friends with them. But no, this is the best. Oh, now they're good friends. Okay. Okay. We'll mark it down. 621. I'm putting my list together. Yeah. I'm writing that down. I've never been there and I grew up involved in. Yeah. And I parted a lot of town line. Let me tell you. I used to host the town line. What was the name of the club there? The palace. No. Rain. Rain. Nightlife. And then the palace next door. Those were some good times. Oh boy. Let's go to Kathy. What's next? What have we got for us? Good morning everybody. My favorite is pizza Mia in Stonam on Franklin Street. Everything on the toppings are always so, so fresh. The dough is just perfect. It's great. But and they also have Sicilian Billy. I know you like Sicilian Billy. Oh, yeah. But Lacasch is in Medford. Yeah. I grew up in Medford. Oh, also has a great Sicilian. Yeah. I've been going to Lacaschia since I was a little kid. Lacaschia is great. Good call. Let's go to Emma next to Emma. Good morning. For us pizza time. Hi. So I have Sally's pizza in Wuburn. It is by far the best pizza. Sally? Sally's pizza in Wuburn. Yeah. They're based in New Haven, which they importantly went to. Oh, yeah. Well, New Haven is like a pizza capital of the country. Well, one of them because they have Pepe's and, but we've got Pepe's around here now. I'm surprised nobody's called in about Pepe's. Let's go to Barbara next. Barbara, what have you got? And so I just want to shout out Giannis in Framingham. It's been there for over 25 years, and I grew up in Framingham with the V bros. And I would have to say they probably would agree with me, Giannis is the best. So not to be confused with Gianna from the V bros, but it's Giannis in Framingham. Yep. So good. The pizza slices are huge. The cheese is good. They're all really nice guys that work there. And I drive over 40 minutes to get their pizza now because I don't live in Framingham anymore. All right. Good one. I've always had the largest voice of pizza I've ever seen. Is that place right across the street from the TD Garden? Is it circle pizza or something? Their slices are like-- Well, Sal's does, too. Salvatore's. Salvatore's. Sal's pizza there. I showed that her name's Barbara and she's not 75. I'm not 25. Yeah. Like old school, right? Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Let's go to Vanessa. Vanessa, it's pizza time. What have you got for us? Hey, I'd like to give a shout out to Chelsea, a chow over in Chelsea. It's the tiniest little place across from the Chelsea courthouse. They have the most amazing pizza and the greatest cost is two. So chow as in chow. As in like the Italian chow. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Chow. Chow. Okay. Good one. That's chow in Chelsea. Okay. How about Billy writes this down if he's ever going to go to any of these places? Oh, I'm going to go. We're going to Malden, Justin, right after the show. Yeah. 621. Yeah. Okay. Dan, you're up next. What have you got? Three pizza and Kingston, it rivals Papa Gino's. Oh. It is fantastic. All these north shore people go down to Kingston, eight, three pizza. A three pizza. A three. Okay. Yeah. Quick question. How do you get to Kingston? Three. Yeah. You're like going to the Cape. Yeah. Oh, God. So you got to drive toward the Cape. Yeah. Pass Plymouth. Then you go now to Kingston. Oh, God. That's going to help me very good. Actually, I think I've had a three pizza. All right. Well, thanks, Dan. This is your route next. Boy, I think my very first girlfriend as a child was Louise. Oh, yeah. We remember her. The giant breasts. Louise, is this you? Are you Billie's first lover? No, actually. Sadly, no. I think I'm a little too young, but I do. I'm sure she was a lucky girl, Billie, but I've got to be honest, her breasts scared me. Oh, they were giant lowest sea mess giant brush. Lois, we're talking about Louise. Is she gone already? What are you doing to me? Oh, go ahead, Louise. Give me a pizza. Linwood Pizza in Randolph, the best bar pizza around. I don't know if, Wendy, you've been there. It's fantastic. You have to put in your order an hour to advance. The people are carting them out of there like they're free. They're fantastic. Yeah. I tell you, I don't frequently, Linwood. I'm weird about it. I'm like, oh, I'm not going to go. No, I'm going to say it's about it. I don't go. Linwood has been famous for its pizza for a long time. I'm talking for decades. Dave Portnoy has been going around the Merrimack Valley, but guess what? He does not come to Methuen. There's a great pizza place called Monos, not Romano's, Monos, and he needs to try it. There's also another place in Salem, New Hampshire, Justin. You may know this one, Satchis, that place is really good as well. Dave Portnoy needs to figure it out. Yeah. That's where we get our pizza. Satchis. Satchis. Yeah. We get in Romano's, not Monos, but Romano's. Uh-huh. So I have my list here. Oh my God. So much pizza. Okay. God. I'm going to. So much pizza. I don't know what they're going to be saying, Lee's. Your shirt's six sizes too small, Fapso. Hey, guys. Good morning, Justin here. Best moments from this week's Billion Lee's a show almost to number one, but first number two. This was an interesting list. The musicians were actually bad singers. Do we agree or not? So I think it was last week we did this whole thing about the best female voices ever. And now this morning, Justin, you came up with a list of the worst male voices? Uh, no, no, no. So this isn't me. This is rancor.com. Okay. The same website that did the best female singers. Yeah. They first it up and they started polling people on who the worst musicians are as singers. Yeah. So these are musicians, massive artists who are really bad singers. And I hate to say this because I hate to give her credit. I know. As much as I love her. What's that? But number one on the list is any guesses J Lo. Yep. Jennifer Lopez. Yeah. In case you missed it, Winnie, for the last year or two years, she's been saying that J Lo was really not a good singer. Well, that's actually Ashanti singing right there. That song. So she wrote the song and saying the demo for her. Don't get her started. What they do is that they take the demo which she's had done by Ashanti, Christina Million, all these other amazing, wonderful singers. And they just blend it with her vocal and essentially it's really not her singing. Okay. Big hit. I don't know the girl's name. There's also a ghost singer writer she uses. I don't know her name. That is I think the Jenny the block girl. I'm telling this. She uses background singers to mask how bad she is sounds. How is it possible that you don't have a reality show? Because people don't. This is an odd talent no one cares about. Okay. Yeah. She has two weird talents. Those weird, useless information like that and also what to order at every fast food right now. Oh yeah. Is there a call for you? Those things are giving me a lot. Not really. As long as it makes you happy. That's what I think. I'm fine. Exactly. So moving on this list, you know, there's a bunch of rockers on here. Neil Young is number two. Tom. As the worst. Yes. A lot of good singer. Who is Neil Young? Great musician. He's an old-time writer. Yeah. Legendary rocker. You know his name. I mean, Noah's the sound. Some of the songs. Yeah. Tom. We still gnash in young. Yeah. I know Tom Waits. Tom Waits number three. Number four, Lisa. Yep. Paula Abdul. Really? As a terrible singer. Wow. I can see that. Okay. She was more of a dancer. Yeah. So is J-Lo. Right. Yeah. You can see that. I mean, she was a Laker girl. Yeah. Like, you know, let's go. Don't figure it. So J-Lo was a fly girl. A fly girl. And Paula Abdul was a Laker girl, and both are on the worst voice list. Moving down the list, Bob Dylan is on the list. Oh, yeah. His voice is going to go through, like, a chomp now, a chomp, a chomp. It's unique. It's unique. There's a bio-pick being filmed right now with Timothée Chalamet. Yes. Who looks amazing. And this is going to kill me, too. We got number 14 on the list of the top 20 worst singers, Taylor Swift. Oh, is she maybe just like a poet with a guitar who learned how to sing? Well, I did talk to producer Riley before the show, who is a big Swiftie, and she did say that yes. Oh. That's Taylor. I've never claimed to be a great singer. Right. She's more of a poet. Yep. I love this song, though. I love this song, though. ♪ Can I go ♪ ♪ Where you go ♪ I mean, that's pretty good voice, Lisa. I wish I could sing as well as Taylor Swift, right? I'll give it to her. She probably took voice lessons and learned how to get by, but she's not some powerhouse that came out of her mother's womb singing like an angel. But she does play the guitar very well. She's a musician. Yes. That gets high points. Yes, and she produces good music for people. Whatever she isn't, she does better than anyone else on the planet. I'm not knocking her hustle. I think she's a great businesswoman and a talent, but not necessarily an A plus singer. Yeah. That doesn't have to be it. Coming in at number 20 here is our friend Winnie. Ah. Oh. Oh. I hate that. I just have to say the biggest takeaway for me is that J.Lo is number one on that. I'm the one. You can never say anything about it again. Number one. Never again. I know. Oh, my God. J.Lo is just getting crushed to this summer. Yeah. It's not her best year. No. 2024. Oh, kinder. Yeah. I'm finishing out the list. Aussie Osborne at number six. Wow. He's not a singer. Okay. He's a screamer. I would call Aussie a crooner. He's got a, you know, he's got a unique voice, but I guess I could see that. Yeah. Number 18. The legend Mick Jagger. Oh. Oh, yeah. Not a good singer. Well, you have a little rolling sounds in there. I do. I see a line of cars and they're all looking to play. Yeah. He kind of talks when he sings. Well, you think about it. He was in the 70s. That's when he was bigger. Wasn't everyone high? He arrived in the U.S. in 1962. Wasn't everyone just high? Yes. Very much so. He's got a hot girlfriend. I'll tell you that. I wish I did. He's had a lot of them. 16 years younger than him. Yeah. So, yeah, there's your list of the musicians who are not good singer. Oh, I love this one. Very good. Right. All right. Here we go. Number one moment. And I'd love to say this is a laughing moment for myself, Justin, but it is not very unfortunate thing happened to me this week. Definitely a lesson learned, but pretty much one of the worst days of my life. Number one. The worst day of your life, Justin, you know, that's coming from someone who's been in the poqui a couple of times. It must be bad. Yeah. Yeah. I got to tell you, we were sitting in the office of very early this morning and Justin walked in. I'm sitting there. Lisa there. I don't know if you were in the room at the time, Winnie, but Justin walks in. He said, just so you know, last night was the worst night of my entire life. Yeah. I mean, I'll start with saying that I'm waking up this morning on this Tuesday, July 30th. I have $1 to my name. My entire life savings. That's my savings. My checking. All my credit cards, all the money is gone to the tune of close to $33,000 was taken from me last night by scammers. So innocently last night, you were violated. Okay. I know. This is a comedy show. I'm going to play along. Just know that I'm not doing well this morning. Very quickly. Yeah. What happened? Very, very quickly. My debit card was hacked a couple of weeks ago. I got a new one in the mail. But when it happened, I got a call from my bank, Santander, and they said, "This is the fraud department." And they shut the card down. Set me a new one. Right? Yeah. Last night, I'm laying in bed nine o'clock. My phone rings. It's Santander Bank. I answer it. It's a guy with a foreign accent like they usually are. Yeah. Yeah. And he said, "This is the fraud department. Your card's been hacked." I said, "Again?" And so I'm on the phone with him for a while and he's asking me different questions. And then he says to me, "Did you add a number? There's another user to your account. Now things are getting kind of weird. Now we're 30 minutes in. He's putting me on hold. He's coming back." He's reading another number on my account, which was a number that had been calling me earlier in the evening from the Netherlands. 646 was the first three digits. So I thought I said that number has been called me. He said, "Sir, calm down. We got you. But somebody has access to your account. Put you on hold." As he puts me on hold, I'm texting Winnie and I'm like, "My debit card was hacked again. This will be a topic for tomorrow." I opened my bank and I'm watching all of my savings and checking just go down. They're transferring money in real time out of my savings, 1,000, 3,000, 2,000. And I'm like freaking out. I don't know what's going on. The guy comes back and I said, "My money's going." And he says, "Sir, calm down. Calm down. I see it. I see the money. We're going to get you all the money back." So then he starts asking me personal information and, you know, missed the hustler here, gave some of that information up 'cause I did not know. Your card was down. I was showing Lisa, he was sending me what looked like legitimate text messages to confirm information. Yeah. It said it was from Santander. So anyway, long story short, I'm dwindled on my savings and my checking and my credit card that was on my bank as well. And then he says to me, "You are completely compromised at this point. Do you have other credit cards?" I said, "I have a Jeb Blue card." Yeah. And how is that related to my bank? He said, "Well, I'm seeing some chargers here with a Jeb Blue card." So I'm winning. We're going to need to call Barclays, Jeb Blue. I'm going to patch them in. Now I'm like, "It's 10 o'clock at night." So another voice comes on. But it seems legit. Seems legit. Another voice comes on the phone and says, "I'm so-and-so with Barclays, do you have your card with you?" Oh boy. This is really hard for me to say. And I said yes, and he said, "Can you read that number to me?" And so I didn't hesitate at first because I'm going to a ruba on Sunday. And I'm going to bring my Jeb Blue card. It's going to be my primary source of spending. Yeah. So I didn't want to lock the card. So I wanted to believe it was real. Right. And I gave the card number out. And when I said that last number, I thought to myself, "Is this the scammer that I'm talking to?" So then a voice come and they put me on hold again. Are you giving me reference numbers, Lisa? Multiple reference numbers like they do. Was it 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7? No, no, no. They were legit. And whatever. So then they come back. This is the finale of it. They come back and they say, "We're going to send you a text message to confirm with a code." So the code comes in, like we do to sign into our work, and it says, "From Barclays." And I read the code to him immediately. And he says, "Thank you." And then I read the message and it says, "Do not tell anybody this code. We will never call you this code." Oh yeah, that's right. And then I said to him, I read it to him and he said, "No, no, sir. It's okay." And then he sent another code and another code. And now I'm like, "Something is not right here, okay?" So I hang up the phone. I hang up the phone and I'm trying to call Santander the bank. I don't know what's going on. All my money's gone. Yeah. And as I'm calling the bank, the number is calling back. The Santander, the fake one. I'm trying to stop it from calling. And then all of a sudden that 646 Netherlands number calls and I said, "What?" And I answered it and it was the guy, "Hi, this is so-and-so from Santander. We got disconnected." Oh my God. It was all a scam. Oh my God. Oh my God. They got everything. And they were really good, right? It was so disassociated. So well planned, well thought, out scammed. I've never been to anything like this in my life. It's unbelievable. So, you know, my JetBlue card is shut down. If Santander was not open, I have to wait till they open at 8 o'clock and try to get what I can get back. It's just a really bad situation. I didn't sleep. I was up until 1.30. I wanted to give up on life, man. Yeah. Oh, I'm sure. And it's crazy. But the bottom line is, I think you're protected. The credit cards right now, most of them are protected. You won't be responsible for any of that. Even though I told them the information, that's my question. I think that's what the protection is for. They can't hold you responsible for falling victim to something that's as well organized as this. I will say, also, you did look it up, that Santander was hacked recently. Yeah, apparently they were hacked, and millions of people's data, which puts it on them. Exactly. Yeah. I wouldn't worry too much. I just think it's going to be a few days, but to have your account trained like that. I really don't. Yeah. Yeah. I would go to a Santander branch. Like, after work today, go to the closest one. Yeah. Yeah. And try and sort it out. You may have to fill some paperwork out. Like fraud. They have a fraud. But you need to go in person. Don't call them. Go there, sit down. They'll sit with you and they'll make the necessary connections. But the good news, Justin, is that we're here for you. At least I've got about one or two dollars. Well, I really have you first. I need a dollar. I need a dollar. I need a dollar. Go fund me. Yeah. And so I want to say this before we go, that I thought about this for hours last night and this morning, replaying the call and everything that he said. And you know, this is a PSA for people out there. Absolutely. You know, they never ask for your full credit card number. They never ask for a PIN number and they never send you a code and ask you to read it back. I did all of those things and it was one of the biggest mistakes of my life. Yeah. I mean, there are all kinds of scams out there. I've had a pretty regular one. They keep calling me incessantly, saying, yes, we have one more step to approve your loan. I've had that call too. I never asked you for a loan. No one's offering me a loan. Don't answer. I'm telling you. Don't answer. Hang up. Hey guys, it is Ryan.
