The Hammer and Nigel present.
SPEAKER_2 (0:06)
It depends upon what the meaning of the word is.
Allison (0:09)
Yeah.
Aaron (0:11)
Is this anything?
Allison (0:13)
All right, let's rock and roll.
Aaron (0:15)
Indiana Unclaimed, a program presented by the Attorney General's Office here in Indiana.
Reuniting Hoosiers with over $1 million in unclaimed property every single week. Fast, easy, and free. Type your name in at indianaunclaimed.gov to see if you got any money floating around out there.

And is this anything? A gas price war between two stations in Georgia caused prices to drop as low as 97 cents per gallon. Cool. It led to total chaos and the police had to be called to deal with all the traffic.
Basically, one gas station's policy was to be five cents lower than their neighbors.
So the other station's policy was to match their neighbor's price. So, they kept going back and forth until it got down to 97 cents per gallon. Here are some customers and the gas station owners.
Allison (1:09)
We were here in September. It was $2.54.
Aaron (1:11)
Then it went down again.
SPEAKER_4 (1:12)
Then it went down again.
Aaron (1:13)
When we pulled in, it was $1.44. $1.39.
SPEAKER_2 (1:17)
We want to be five cents higher than them, and they just don't want to agree to that. They want to match. I call my mama, sister, my brother.
SPEAKER_4 (1:25)
Yes.
Allison (1:26)
Look at God, baby.
Aaron (1:28)
Look at God.
We need more of this. Yes, this is something. More gas station wars and price wars. Of course, I think that's one of the things Donald Trump is having a problem with, obviously, is the gas station. The price is at the pump right now.
SPEAKER_4 (1:47)
Right. Hammer and oil is flowing, you know, where it's supposed to be flowing from. But yet, the prices haven't come down the way he wants.
Aaron (1:56)
The war on Iran is still having issues in affecting that. But 97 cents per gallon, it's amazing what people will do for 97 cents per gallon. I mean, it's amazing, like, how long people will wait.
People will wait in lines for that. And I get it. I totally get it.
SPEAKER_4 (2:15)
And I love the managers of these stores were like, oh, you want to get cute? We're going to lower our price. Like, it takes a certain level of petty to get all the way down to 97 cents before the police get involved. Like, I respect that. That level of pettiness is fantastic.
Aaron (2:31)
I respect it, and I like it, and I think there needs to be more of it.
SPEAKER_4 (2:36)
Is this anything? A girl got her boyfriend to ask the order to go while ordering from a drive-thru.
Keep in mind, they're in a drive-thru, and she told the boyfriend, you have to order it to go, which we believe is pretty much implied here, right?
Allison (2:57)
In a small sprite to go.
In a small sprite, please. To go.
SPEAKER_4 (3:01)
Aaron, is this okay?
Aaron (3:02)
Yes.
Allison (3:03)
Just say to go. To go, please. To go?
Aaron (3:08)
You are getting dropped here. You didn't realize that, right? I was not the one saying that.
Allison (3:13)
She's telling me what to order. It's all right. That will be it.
Thank you.
Aaron (3:24)
It's amazing what dudes will do for their girlfriends just to maybe get the possibility of some play when they get back home.
Yeah, no, yeah, I'm at the drive-thru. I'd like a Coke to go, please. Yeah, no crap you wanted to go, idiot.
SPEAKER_4 (3:42)
I don't know about you guys, and maybe this is a dude thing. Allison, feel free to weigh in here.
Like when I'm ordering at the drive-thru and somebody says something, I'm just a parrot. Like they could we could be a Taco Bell. Oh, yeah. Three Big Macs, three Big Macs. Like I just repeated immediately right into the speaker. Is that like a dude thing?
Allison (4:01)
100 percent. This took me back to like when I was a kid in high school. And if we were lucky, our dad would drive us to Starbucks, and he didn't know how to say any of the names. So we would just, you know, mumble it off. And he would probably say anything you would tell him to. They just zone. You guys just zone out and repeat, which honestly, that's what we need.
Aaron (4:18)
So pinkity drinkity. Pinkity drinkity Starbucks order.
SPEAKER_4 (4:22)
Pinkity drinkity. And then the guy in front of me in subway that was arguing about the half inch.
