On Raiders of the Lost podcast, we explore cinema like no one else, including huge interviews with stars like Ryan Gosling on Project Hail Mary. It was like the Jaws shark.

Didn't always work, came with its own problems. That's what made it great. The cast of Obsession.

On set, there was so much magic happening with each scene we were putting together. Deep dives into classics like 2001 A Space Odyssey or Fight Club, plus weekly episodes on all industry news.

Hey, everybody. I'm Tariqa Foster-Brasby. What's up, y'all? I'm your girl, Cheryl Swoops. When you tune in to a new episode of our podcast, Levels to This, you're definitely going to get some spicy WNBA analysis. But we're more than just hoops. And the real conversation is what we actually bring.

It's been really, really cool seeing kind of these women just really step into their power off the court and understand that they aren't basketball, right? And they're not asking for permission.

It's that, and then there's everything else. Dude, his whole life has sounded like the first drop of a roller coaster.

I mean, I can't even tell you, Paul, how crazy it was. It was insane.

Fuck, it's red glare!

You're not being logical is what I'm saying.

This is like an orgasm and a cop.

Showtime! We'll be right back.

i'm sorry we were having a discussion off the air now realizing our microphone was on uh good morning welcome to the mojo in the morning show hey ho ho ho happy happy happy We are on Wednesday The show, which by the way I always feel like it's the best show of the week I know this sounds crazy to say this Because everybody loves Thursday's War of the Roses And all that But Wednesday always gets kind of nutty here on the show And we're very happy that Spike is back today So welcome back Spike, feeling better?

Good morning, I'm about 70-80% Good enough to get in here and get some work done

Yeah, well, I just missed you at Dr. Warner's office yesterday.

Oh, did you? Yes, our show gynecologist. By the way. The two men missed each other in the hallway of the show gynecologist.

Can I tell you the funniest? The funniest was I walk into Dr. Warner's office, and as I walk into the office, there are a couple of expectant moms that are waiting inside of the...

waiting area there. And I think they double-taked a couple of times because they were probably looking for me to bring a wife or girlfriend in with me. And I'm like, oh, no, I'm here, you know, for myself. And then one woman goes, I'm a huge fan. She goes, I just saw a spike here just a little bit ago. And I said, oh, yes. I said, we love to come to Dr. Warner too because we like to get you know our our vaginas checked out too and uh she uh she was so excited about it and she goes i thought that was just all a joke that you guys talk about on the radio when you say you have your official show gynecologist but dr warner's he's the best i'll

be there tomorrow actually getting my carpool i don't know it would have been one big morning show could have gone out to lunch afterwards what's funny because he you know he he said i want to call you i didn't want to break any um violate any trust or or you know between patient and but i heard you were out for two days i kept hearing you were missing and i wanted to call you and see if you're okay you didn't contact me to see i want to take care of you so when i finally text him and said listen things things are going south i was hoping it was just a 24-hour bug like the other guys had but this is something different uh because i didn't have what you guys had thank god you you guys were really washed out mine was really concentrated in the throat and um he treated me for i'm on so many things i don't know if it's if it's a flu or he thinks it's rsv he thinks it's wow the thing that's going around yeah but um because i had my flu shot and i know but no but

you're sandwiched right in between i'm the only one in this room who has not gotten anything and I feel like it's slowly been creeping around me. Hold on, lung, lung, lung, lung, lung, lung, lung. I know.

Well, I'm well past any kind of contagious level now. Maybe last Friday when we hugged, that might have been bad. Oh, great, great. But anyway, he also treated me in case it was streptomy. I got antibacterial in case he's shooting me to the moon. Streptococcus. You never know what it is. I don't know.

I always love the names that they ever use for these things. Yeah.

Yeah. But anyway, I feel 100 times better than I did 24 hours ago. Got it under control. I'm literally on so many different things right now. You might have to remind me later I did the show. But it was fun because the first day, I just laid and watched movies all day. Classic 80s and 90s movies. Got every Christmas special out of the way. Tuesday, I was so sick of TV and so sick of drinking tea and honey. I was like, I got to do something. So I ended up working on papers and paperwork and wrote out Christmas cards. How dare you? I know. But let me tell you also that I got a good gauge of how many delivery people come to my house in an average day when you're home all day. You see every 20 minutes, do I hear a noise? And then I say, oh, it's somebody delivering. And I have to tell you the big scandal that happened over the weekend because I put out one of those little boxes by the front door for snacks and treats. I said, you know, delivery drivers, help yourself. And over the weekend, it disappeared. And I mean, the whole box got carried away. It was gone. A porch pirate came and grabbed it? So, and I did observe that when delivery drivers come up, they do like to, they don't take one or two treats. Oh, my gosh. They take as many as two hands can carry. So I had to fill the thing every night. I would refill it with bags of chips and cookies and waters and stuff. Well, over the weekend, somebody carried off the whole thing. Oh, my gosh. Oh, I love that. It made me laugh. And I thought, for sure, maybe this is like a prank one of my neighbors took it because they didn't just take all the snacks. They took the box it was in and everything, which was a big, like, produce box from Costco.

Do you have, like, a camera set up?

So I usually do. I usually have, like, security system I could check. But I took all the cameras down because last week I had windows replaced in my home. And so I didn't put those back up yet. Oh, man. Oh, the one time. We want to see. I know because I had to paint the trim still before I put the camera there. Sticky fingers. Oh, my gosh. So now I have no idea who did it. I quizzed all my neighbors. I interrogated. And most of them had no idea what I was talking about because they hadn't been up to my door in the last two weeks where I had the box out. Yeah. So nobody knows where it is. I thought maybe my girlfriend Meg does not. She's the box clutters her front porch. She's not a fan of the box. But she I thought maybe she hit it. But no, she didn't. So now I have no idea where it is. But I had to get a new box. It's smaller shoe box.

Wait, so they not only took all the items, they took the box total.

They took the little cardboard sign that said, Hi, delivery drivers, thank you. Please help yourself. For sure it's a neighbor. You got to tuck other porches and see if they have a cute little setup like you did.

Yesterday we talked about porch pirating, and we found out that a majority of the porch pirates are neighbors. That was crazy, the amount of people that said that their neighbors would brazenly walk up to their door and take whatever it was that was there. Well, who would steal the whole crate? You can't put out...

It's the same box. I'm going to notice it's the same box.

Can I tell you that I have had, so Chelsea does the same thing that you do, and she puts out a box for these guys, and I have had the Amazon and UPS and FedEx drivers actually ask if we had anything else in there.

No, you do not. They were picky.

Swear to you. Yes. Ask if there was something else, because we had Cheez-Its, and we had Doritos, and Sun chips and things like that in there and then little waters and um the person's the person that was delivering it was an amazon driver said do you guys don't happen to have a diet coke in

there i put there's a lot of healthy things and a lot of sweets and stuff and but like the healthy things nobody touches you know the even like the baked lays are too healthy for everybody you know what the biggest popular thing was all the leftover halloween candy yeah yeah but i did have like the bags of cookies go but anything that could be remotely considered halfway healthy

nobody touches yeah i did it one year and i i think for the whole season maybe one thing got taken and i'm like okay well i'm not gonna do this anymore really yes they did not take anything maybe they were all dieting that year i don't know but i was so bummed because i was so excited to do it yeah and nobody wanted my stuff from my box in my old house it was like one little

One little thing they would take

What's wrong with my box

We found out yesterday

That your box can fit a lot

Really?

We talked about it You'll have to go back to the podcast And listen to that It came out that that's the case Matter of fact speaking of your box Dr. Warner one of his fellow patients Dr. Warner checks that Hi Judy Judy what's going on? Hi How are you? You're a patient of Dr. Warner's? 35 years Isn't he the greatest

Thank you to Jeff Sackwell Oh that's right

I have to thank him too Because Jeff's the reason why I met Dr. Warner

One day he walked into my office And he goes I was out on Lake St. Clair And my friend's a doctor And I had to turn around And he had to call his patients And I'm like that's the kind of doctor I want And he's like do you need a gynecologist I go I do

And I've never said Isn't that wild? We all go to Dr. Warner.

He's so funny, too, because he really lectures us and keeps us healthy. He was like, I listen to your show. You sound so happy. Girlfriend, you sound so incredible. She's cooking for you. Yeah, yeah, yeah. She's cooking lots of healthy vegetables and fruits. And I'm like, yeah. No red meat? No red meat? No fatty stuff? No, no. And she's using all the good oils? Yeah. And then he says, are you using?

Yeah, and what kind of cleaning products are you using?

Yeah, cleaning products. Yeah, and he says.

No texting and driving, right? Are you using a good eye cream? Sunscreen?

Sunscreen? He did the sunscreen. He did. are you using lots of butter and cheese i said hold up mind your own business okay she's a really good cook i like the butter and the cheese yeah that's awesome that's up yeah

when i was having my firstborn he walks into the hospital room with his pistons jacket on and uh the nurses started yelling at him you have to get out of here you have to get out of here we're giving her an epidural he goes i'm the doctor

they all thought it was probably your husband walking in there or something that's funny um my were you the did you text us because i loved i loved your text it said it's uh it says now uh now we know why we have to sit for hours for dr werner's office because you boys are getting your vaginas checked that is so funny because it's so true actually the reason why i think it takes so long in Dr. Warner's office is it takes long for him to say goodbye to you, which is so

sweet. Alright, so I'll see you again. I'll see you again. Take care. Take care. Bye-bye. How are the girls? Girls doing good? Okay, it's really good to see you. Take care of yourself.

Make sure you wear your seatbelt. I swear to you, God, I say this all the time, but I believe that we're going to go to heaven one day, and we're going to find out that Dr. Warner is like our guardian angel or something like that. He's like Clarence from It's a Wonderful Life. That's awesome. We love you. Take care, Judy. Love you, too. Bye. Alright, take care. What's up, Sarah. I almost did a Dr. Warner there. Okay, take care. What's going on, Sarah?

Hi. I was talking, I texted you guys about the front porch gifts for the delivery driver. Yeah, oh yeah, yeah.

Spikes gifts to the delivery drivers were stolen.

I, you know, I tried it too. Like I, you know, I thought it would start out easy with just like a shoebox. I put some gifts in it and I thought, at first I was like, oh, they're taking off stuff. And then I started noticing wrappers around my front yard And I thought, that's not very nice And then I noticed that the box was getting chewed up And I was like, oh man, it's the squirrels So I had to get a really serious box With a lid you had to lock And it was really heavy because the squirrels would take the box And drag it away

Isn't that unbelievable? Maybe that's the case with yours, Spike

It's become such a chore To just try and give out a few treats No, it couldn't be the squirrels Because there's all these heavy water bottles

So the whole box, they would have tipped it over maybe, but they wouldn't have taken the whole thing. That's amazing.

I've seen some pretty burly squirrels lately.

Oh, yeah. What's up, Lauren? Hi.

Hi, how are you?

Good. What's going on?

I was just texting in. I said, as a FedEx driver, we want the most unhealthy snacks that you have because we need that sugar rush to keep us going. That's so funny. So anything unhealthy. Yeah.

So if you put healthy stuff in there, granola bars and things, yuck. You want to give me some Snickers bars and Doritos, right?

Yep, yeah, exactly.

You guys probably work off a lot. How many steps a day do you get in as a FedEx driver?

Usually over 100 during peak season.

100,000?

100 stops per person.

No, no, no, steps. I was talking about steps.

Oh, steps, steps, yeah, like 10,000 plus.

10,000 plus a day. Easy. Good. Oh, yeah. And think about that because you're sitting in a car or in a truck all day too, but that means that's how many steps you're getting from the truck to the porch. All right, thanks for the call.
