Episode 421: Spoonhog

Outline
00:45 - Intro - It's just a normal episode. Justin learns about "the Biz" from Jesse Thorn.

08:15 - A couple weeks ago, I was walking downtown and a guy and his girlfriend asked me for change for a dollar. We were near a parking meter so this seemed reasonable to me and I pulled out my wallet. The guy immediately grabbed my wallet out of my hands and ran about a half of a block away with it. Then he turned back around and gave me my wallet back. In the end I guess he stole my cash, which amounted to about $5 (actually it was $6, but he left me $1). What happened? Was it a prank? Did he give up? Is this a thing that happens? I mean, it was technically a theft of $5 but I was so relieved I wouldn't have to cancel and replace my cards that I'm ok with that. - Never Going Downtown Again

22:40 - Hi Brothers, I work at a grocery store deli in a rural area and a few days ago someone came to the counter who I'm 95% sure is a moderately famous Hollywood actor-- [the question is interrupted because the identity of the actor is not revealed and the Brothers request that the question asker resubmit it with the name included]

23:35 - I work in an office building that has a kitchen and we've discovered that many of our spoons are going missing at an alarming rate. My boss has personally bought new spoons to replace the missing ones on enough occasions that she dressed up as a spoon for Halloween to remind people of the issue. She won the costume competition in case you were wondering. Where are our spoons going and how can I stop this from happening? -Burglarized in Baltimore
