Car chase

I gotta increase my dex.

Uh, we'll theater of the mind this 'cause it's might be a bit of a car chase.

We'll see.

Yeah, your dex is-

Okay.

I know who it is.

Car Chase, boy.

[laughs]

Love a boss.

An 18-mile police pursuit ended with a crash in a ditch in Blaine.

It started in Fridley when police tried to pull over a pickup truck th- uh, this morning for speeding.

The driver then blew through the gates of an Army training site.

And they're only one step above the people who own and drive the Honda CR-V. not to be confused with the apparently almighty Honda HR-V. Long-time viewers and listeners may remember Jonathan demonstrating that the HR-V is apparently Honda's entry into the Formula One.

We watched that man get one up to around 130 miles an hour during a police pursuit, and ever since then, I've had a completely different level of respect for the HR-V.

The CR-V does not possess that power.

If you're traveling down the interstate and there's a mysterious line of 30 cars stacked up in the fast lane, there's a pretty good chance that someone at the front of the line is in a CRV doing 63 in a 70.

Hey, Crowder, by any chance...

Did I miss earlier today a police chase with somebody? Because I just saw a video, and I heard Tobin and Leroy yelling at the top of their lungs during one of their segments.

I was in a meeting, and I heard something about a car chase, a police chase, and I'm starting to see videos of people who are passing by this police chase.

Did you catch that on the news by any chance? No, no.

I was watching, I don't know, a streaming network.

I'm pissed that I missed that.

That's always peak TV.

Local news channels break out of whatever soap opera they're showing, and it's like live in Miami police chase.

Professor Toby Walsh, an AI expert from the University of New South Wales, dropped by to give us his take and also what it means for jobs and the wider economy.

There's also been a wild police chase in Sydney's CBD.

And guess what? Two detectives jumped on e-bikes to catch the crook, Superintendent Marty Fileman explained on the show today.

All that and more.

There's a lot of doom and gloom in the world, and I just wanted to spend a couple of minutes acknowledging a very funny and amazing piece of police work.

Now, there was a wild police chase in Sydney CBD, and basically police had been chasing a thief.

who'd carried out robberies around Haymarket and Pyrmont.

We had a hill all over.

I feel like at that time, if I could have connected that feeling with something, I feel like I could have, like maybe life would have changed a little bit, which is why when I, you know, after I got out of jail for my, you know, for my car chase that I'm sure we'll talk about, I remembered that feeling and I remembered letting it slip by and being determined not, you know, to let that slip by.

I feel like there are so many teenagers and kids in their twenties in college that, that are seeing this, you know, wasting away life on a video, on video games and, you know, going out to bars that, okay, it might be fun for a while.

It might be fun for a year or two, but it's not a lasting, it's not enduring.

far after I started doing coke.

Oh, really? Yeah.

Okay, so tell us about this really exciting car chase.

Kids

This dude might have a gun.

Hey, Davey, I like a police chase.

I don't see them very often.

Um, but a police chase going across the golf course is fantastic, Davey.

I ...

That would be ...

Man, you know, I guess, though, when you're guilty and you've done something and they're onto you, drive anywhere I suppose, right? I mean, just get the hell out of there and try to get under a cave or a rock or somewhere and ...

I don't know.
