• 1:00Speaker 03

  Hi, Elvis. Hi, Stavi. Hello, esteemed guests.

• 1:06Speaker 03

  Longtime listener, first-time caller.

• 1:08Stavros Halkias?

  Nice.

• 1:08Speaker 03

  I have huge tits and a big ass.

• 1:11Stavros Halkias?

  Nice, hell yeah.

• 1:12Speaker 03

  And a hot girlfriend, and we love company.

• 1:14Stavros Halkias?

  I'm listening, hold on.

• 1:15Speaker 03

  But that has nothing to do with my question. Um, I just finished my PhD, like a month ago.

• 1:20Stavros Halkias?

  Hell, yeah.

• 1:21Speaker 03

  And my advisor, um, is a dogshit horrible person.

• 1:26Stavros Halkias?

  Okay.

• 1:27Speaker 03

  And I still need his rep letter for jobs that happen after this. But I do want to try to make his life considerably worse. Of course, by accident and outside, um, you know, general legality.

• 1:45Stavros Halkias?

  Okay.

• 1:45Speaker 05

  I think what we're talking about here is a prank war.

• 1:48Speaker 03

  I have been thinking about signing him off our free mortgage quotes because I have his email, his phone number, his address, his first name, et cetera, all the things he gave me when I worked in his lab. Um, but I'm trying to figure out what else I can do. Free mortgage quotes, a fake

• 2:09Stavros Halkias?

  Sure, these are classics.

• 2:10Speaker 03

  Craigslist ad, perhaps something on offer.

• 2:13Stavros Halkias?

  I'm gonna tell you, everyone's pivoted to Facebook Marketplace now.

• 2:16Speaker 03

  That his wife may have been defined. Um, if you have any ideas, please let me know.

• 2:23Stavros Halkias?

  Okay, yeah. Prank war, prank war.

• 2:25Speaker 03

  For context... He has wronged me so significantly that if I didn't need an income that's reliant on his referral letter, I would hit him with my car.

• 2:42Stavros Halkias?

  Interesting. Okay, wow.

• 2:45Speaker 05

  Oh, man. So many good, so many good pranks to do with this situation.

• 2:48Speaker 06

  You know Scientology, obviously.

• 2:50Stavros Halkias?

  That's true.

• 2:51Speaker 05

  Seven Day Adventists.

• 2:53Stavros Halkias?

  I, I would say first and foremost, just before we start the prank war, make sure this letter's sent in.

• 3:00Speaker 06

  Right, right. Yeah, secure the bag first.

• 3:02Stavros Halkias?

  Do not fumble on the one yard line. Don't start doing a touchdown dance before you've scored. So definitely before you do any of this, make sure you have, this guy is completely out of your life. And I would say, by the way, give it a buffer. You're in that job, give it six months where you're like, you're in there.

• 3:19Speaker 06

  So there's no way for him to suspect that you're the one behind this?

• 3:22Stavros Halkias?

  Yeah, yeah, yeah. Go watch The Count of Monte Cristo. That's some good shit right there. He got back on those motherfuckers like crazy.

• 3:31Speaker 06

  You know, does he have a kid? Could you possibly call Child Protective Services?

• 3:34Speaker 05

  All right, all right, all right.

• 3:35Speaker 06

  With an anonymous tip.

• 3:37Speaker 05

  There's a fine line between prank war and swatting parents.

• 3:42Stavros Halkias?

  Well, I would say, okay, here, if he's a real piece of shit, is it worth your time? And I know you don't have money right now, whatever, you just got, but is it worth your time just hiring a private investigator? Because if he's a piece of shit who wronged you?

• 3:55Speaker 06

  Oh, then he's probably doing pieces of shit.

• 3:57Stavros Halkias?

  Is he doing something shitty? Could you just, could you just expose him for the shit he's doing shittily? I mean, cheating on his wife would be a huge bonanza here, right? Like, that would be awesome. Like, if I really hated someone, I might kick the tires on a P.I. Just to be like, general surveillance, any dirt? Can you do like a back, I mean, if he, if he wronged you this much? Is sending, is getting a couple pizzas ordered to his house really gonna fucking be funny?

• 4:23Speaker 06

  No.

• 4:23Stavros Halkias?

  You know what I mean? No, I think you want to destroy this fucking guy's life. So I like, you know, stakeouts, classic stakeout stuff, you know?

• 4:31Speaker 05

  Do the research, though.

• 4:32Stavros Halkias?

  Do the research.

• 4:33Speaker 05

  Yeah, do the research.

• 4:33Stavros Halkias?

  You gotta do the research, absolutely. Otherwise, just generally, what could you do to him? I don't, you know?

• 4:40Stavros Halkias?

  Stuff would, you know? Could you, could you get, could you like, uh, put some, I've always liked it when, you know, you trick someone into putting Nair on their head and they, you know, they're bald now, you know, that could be good.

• 4:56Speaker 05

  I had some friends, uh, send their neighbors who they didn't like, uh, mini toasts on a regular basis.

• 5:02Stavros Halkias?

  Mini toasts?

• 5:03Speaker 05

  Yeah, so they were just constantly getting mini toasts that they never ordered in the mail. I think they were, I think we were like, mini, like, you know, like the little, it's like croutons, but like, you know, for like cheese parties.

• 5:15Speaker 05

  This is, I mean, obviously we're dealing with something that needs a little bit of a, uh, heavier, heavier, heavier.

• 5:20Stavros Halkias?

  Yeah.

• 5:20Speaker 07

  Could you catfish him somehow?

• 5:22Stavros Halkias?

  Catfishing is classic.

• 5:24Speaker 08

  Cause I'm thinking like all of the classic, like in-person things you can't really do anymore, cause we live in a fucking surveillance state.

• 5:30Stavros Halkias?

  Right, right, right. Catfishing is nice though.

• 5:32Speaker 05

  Yeah.

• 5:34Stavros Halkias?

  That is a classic one, uh, but I think I would if, I would really take some time.

• 5:39Speaker 05

  Prank war stuff?

• 5:40Stavros Halkias?

  Not really.

• 5:41Speaker 08

  Do what?

• 5:42Speaker 05

  Prank war stuff, different?

• 5:44Speaker 08

  What, like George Clooney? I don't prank.

• 5:47Speaker 05

  I don't know.

• 5:48Stavros Halkias?

  Yeah, like cla- yeah, there's classic camp pranks, put some bouillon cubes in his showers, you know, put some Saran Wrap over the toilet so he shits on it, the toilet or pisses all over the place, but that's really classic stuff. We want to really destroy this man.

• 6:01Speaker 08

  Right.

• 6:02Stavros Halkias?

  And how about this, how about this, catfish his wife.

• 6:05Speaker 05

  Okay.

• 6:06Stavros Halkias?

  Make his wife cheat on him somehow.

• 6:10Stavros Halkias?

  See if his wife will start chatting with like some hot guy or whatever, you know, that's fun, or do you have a sexy guy that could try and fuck his wife? That's even better.

• 6:20Speaker 05

  The worst prank I ever did was I had a friend who had a, uh, was really into the PC game Morrowind. And so, uh, one night I broke into his house and, uh, basically like did a save state that where like as soon as you opened the game, you would die immediately and then I erased.

• 6:39Stavros Halkias?

  Oh, no.

• 6:39Speaker 05

  All of his other safe.

• 6:40Stavros Halkias?

  Oh, that's brutal.

• 6:42Speaker 05

  He'd been playing it all summer.

• 6:43Stavros Halkias?

  Dude, that's actually diabolical.

• 6:45Speaker 05

  If you find your PhD person has like some like MMO character that they've been leveling up.

• 6:51Stavros Halkias?

  And this is why, yes.

• 6:52Speaker 05

  Yeah.

• 6:53Stavros Halkias?

  That's why you need a PI. You need to know what he's into, his secret obsessions, you know what I mean? Mm hmm. Oh, that's crazy, though. As a gamer, that's one of the most fucked up things you could do.

• 7:02Speaker 05

  Yeah, I don't know why I did that.

• 7:03Stavros Halkias?

  Do you feel remorse?

• 7:05Speaker 05

  Yeah.

• 7:07Speaker 05

  Yeah, I actually, he's actually in Dance Freak also.

• 7:09Stavros Halkias?

  Oh, wow.

• 7:10Speaker 05

  Yeah, he's your boyfriend.

• 7:14Speaker 05

  The secret boyfriend.

• 7:15Stavros Halkias?

  Who's the secret boyfriend?

• 7:16Speaker 05

  It's like a picture on, in her apartment.

• 7:18Stavros Halkias?

  Oh, okay, okay, nice.

• 7:19Speaker 05

  It's actually like what he looked like when I did that. There's a lot of guilt that like.

• 7:24Stavros Halkias?

  Oh, right.

• 7:24Speaker 05

  Some other time.

• 7:25Stavros Halkias?

  You're get, you're baptized, yeah. Dance Freak might be your baptism from the guilt. You put him in the movie, it's all over, you know?

• 7:39Speaker 09
