00:51story about a guy who almost took a huge secret to the grave literally to the grave and it's
00:59got people talking about not really what he did but how he was handled after he passed away okay so
01:07uh let's go to inside edition with this story ashley randall's father thomas was dying of lung cancer at
01:14the age of 71 when out of nowhere he admitted he once lived under another name dad and i were
01:21in the
01:22living room watching ncis and he just sort of out of the blue calmly said well ladies just in case
01:30something comes up after i pass i just need to let you know that i changed my name when i
01:37moved here
01:38nobody can know the authorities might still be looking for me ashley demanded to know his real name
01:46he really quietly said if i tell you you have to promise you won't look into this he said it
01:52was ted
01:53conrad i couldn't not look and the first thing that popped up was a headline that said something like
02:00ted conrad vault teller bank heist in 1969 ted conrad stole 219 000 from a bank in cleveland where he
02:11worked
02:11as a teller on the friday before his 20th birthday he simply filled a bag full of cash and walked
02:18away
02:19never to be seen again in today's dollars his take would be nearly two million dollars with his new
02:27ill-gotten wealth ted conrad started a new life he bought a penthouse apartment in boston played a lot
02:34of golf and became a car salesman by the time he married my mom the money was gone but all
02:39that time
02:40he was still being sought america's most wanted and unsolved mysteries both featured the story
02:47now the daughter is telling the remarkable story on a podcast smokescreen my fugitive dad
02:54because we were so close i just assumed that since i had no secrets from him he wouldn't have any
03:00from me
03:01i got a problem with this really yeah i want to know what you got a problem wait before you
03:07even
03:07start going i think he's about to be hating i think that's what's going to happen i think this
03:11is about i think i'm gonna get some people in my corner i don't i wonder if the people already
03:14in
03:14this corner because it's been a lot of people having an issue with something about this story
03:19okay well i'm curious what what that is but let me just tell you real quick
03:25boo on her oh yes that's what people been complaining about for doing that that but that's not my biggest
03:33problem with her she tried to turn this into money the podcast yep i was trying to turn this into
03:39money exploiting her dead father that's what that's the thing that really gets i want to ask y'all this
03:46well he clearly values money so well so does she let me ask y'all this because clearly he didn't
03:52you
03:53could tell he really didn't want her to look this up right which by the way you think he's you
03:57think
03:58yeah but um what would y'all do in that situation would y'all i mean would y'all go
04:03this route or
04:04would you kind of keep your father you know uh i don't want to say the legacy well that's the
04:08other
04:08thing no there is a legacy because i i wouldn't i wouldn't have did a podcast on this right this
04:13would have been something like wow my dad is really doing this maybe maybe talk with other family
04:19members or something like that i'll tell you what i wouldn't have did no production no podcast i would
04:23have looked it up because who who wouldn't of course but i would have taken that to my grave
04:28i wouldn't try to exploit my you said you know what kind of legacy he does have by all accounts
04:32seems to live a pretty good life loved his daughter you know she said it as much you know loved
04:37his wife
04:38lived to 71 and all of a sudden she is exploiting her dead father so she can make a buck
04:45i feel like
04:46y'all are putting this as if it's like a great a great stain upon who he was he did
04:51it first and
04:52foremost but secondly i find this to be cool as hell like maybe maybe this is weird maybe this is
04:57the the kid that found db cooper fascinating right maybe that's what it is but i'm like yo he
05:02actually he beat the whole system on this yeah i don't know if you heard me i was like oh
05:05because
05:06when when it was like the setup i was afraid that he was going to be like a murderer that
05:10then came
05:10around and i mean and he just put the money in his bag it wasn't like he you know like
05:15an armed robbery
05:16tough deal he just took it and never been seen since i'm not trying to glorify theft clearly do
05:22not steal it is not a good thing uh however it's a cool story and i i it's not like
05:29you putting him
05:29in jail he's no longer here yeah i think it's cool to tell the story i do not not like
05:35this maybe
05:36yeah yeah she's getting crushed online she should she should get crushed uh and i wouldn't put a
05:42whole podcast together but that's what i'm saying yeah like i would tell another podcast like if this
05:47american life came through i'd tell i'd tell the story and see and and i know he the father before
05:52he passed he didn't want her to look it up right i guess he wanted to kind of keep that
05:57part is not
05:57gonna happen yeah everybody's gonna so i understand that part so i would at least try to honor him a
06:03little bit she was probably thinking movie and all this other stuff she was trying to cash in
06:08on the legacy of a man that she seemingly and probably loved but just greed got the best and
06:13i'm curious like what's what's gonna be in this podcast that's it yeah because just the story
06:18how many details does she know yeah she don't know she ain't know anything until he mentioned it
06:22this is gonna be an investigatory podcast which honestly i would listen to it if there's a if
06:28there's a journalist that i trust to actually get to the story pretty well as long as she honestly if
06:32she tells a good story i'll listen to it but it's here's the other thing it's a podcast it's one
06:36week what's your next episode what are you doing next they might they might do i'm sure she dragged
06:42it on but they might be a do a deep dive where you might be able to do maybe like
06:45you know what
06:45six episodes or something wow yeah yeah you just you sound mad that your daddy didn't rob how do you
06:52know uh and by the way to your point yes he did it should have gone to jail all that
07:00but that's
07:00about as close to a victimless crime as you can get that's that was my thought was like hey man
07:04one this is actually a thing that he did so we can't be like oh he's she's smirching his legacy
07:09yeah he did it yeah uh but secondly i find it to be kind of cool uh of of crimes
07:14that could be
07:15committed which again are all still crimes this one i'm not really crying about yeah i'm gonna be
07:19honest yeah i probably if that was me in that situation my mother said hey boot man i just want
07:25to
07:25let you know i took two hundred ninety thousand dollars yeah like i don't know if i would do a
07:31podcast no you wouldn't i will probably be of course i'd be shocked yeah i will probably be
07:37telling you know some family and friends like hey did you know about this i'll probably be doing my
07:41own little investigation just try to dig in more right to see who the hell this lady was but i
07:47don't
07:48know if i would just jump right into hollywood or try to do a podcast or a documentary or anything
07:54like she's trying to cash in it's as simple as that i also respect just how i respect her pops
08:00so in my mind someday he was just working there he's like man i don't want to be here no
08:04more
08:04took some money and decided i'm gonna go live a lavish life and play golf 20 years old man
08:09he was 20 honestly the only criticism i have is that he did not think long term but at the
08:14same time
08:14i'm like at 20 years old i don't know if i would have either like let's live the high life
08:18for right
08:18now oh yeah he didn't invest anything he was like i don't i don't even know that i can make
08:22this
08:22money stretch for a long time and i'm never ever going to have an opportunity to live like this
08:26so we're just going to do it right now then we'll figure out life after and then he did
08:29i think pops is cool as hell yeah he probably i know he probably felt a little better just kind
08:34of
08:35hey i know we watching ncis but i got to tell you something what about the ncis episode was like
08:41now's
08:42the time about the time i need to do this this is the mixtape presented by sheriff injury lawyers
08:49on in the loop 95 7 the fans so a new trend when it comes to baby names and i
08:55always love a good
08:56baby name dream because at one point you had people just going back to the old bible names
09:02and then you got the old um i don't even know what you call it i don't want to i
09:07don't even know
09:07i'm displaying it but um is it all the people that are coming out here with old names that's the
09:11that's been the fad lately like eunice and gertrude and no seriously and i'm sorry yeah yeah yeah people
09:18naming their children eunice look as someone whose wife is a little two-year-old opal this is something

10:42them that are kind of cool like you get to like the colt i've seen a bunch of gunners yeah
10:47i've seen
10:48gunners before yeah um but um remington i think that's kind of remy remington and winchester both

11:31that that florio's report oh he's reporting that that's that's the number dude that guy's got a
11:35come here 150 somebody said shank i don't know what's more fun the people sending in fake uh
11:43or not fake yeah i guess fake names uh that are based off of weapons or people that are
11:48hey prostitution there's people sending in the old names hazel does not feel that old right now
11:55but it kind of is somebody said ruth ruth is a good one maybe baby maude

12:10yeah rupert yeah all right goodness gracious criminal tool
12:17another jed york name
12:20all right i'll get y'all out of here on this it's the mixtape presented by sheriff injury lawyers
12:26so have you guys ever heard of the term um being used as go to the store yeah are we
12:33not talking
12:34about going to the store is this a euphemism for now this is more of a slang word you probably
12:38not
12:38familiar with the way this word is used this is kind of like if you on a block somewhere in
12:43the hood
12:44and the older older dudes in that hood sending a little kid to the store to go get some food
12:50or
12:50whatever right so apparently a lot of people look at that as kind of i guess low tier this is
12:59more
12:59like a hood intern okay you kind of look at it as a hood intern okay and so a lot
13:04of dudes don't like
13:05being i i guess they don't want to be labeled as oh you used to go to the store for
13:09so-and-so
13:10oh okay i got you were so it's like little homie type you were good idea i got you so
13:15um here's a
13:16guy by the name of queen's flip on the joe button podcast denying how he never really been sent to
13:22the store and you know he's this rah-rah guy tough guy yeah and he said he never had to
13:28go to the
13:28store for nobody you know i'm i'm queen's flip oh gosh and so they asked him this and he denied
13:34it all
13:35and then joe button decided to call his big homie and try to see what he's gonna say and this
13:40is how
13:40this whole interaction went they sent me to the store they saying that because i drove webb's car
13:46by the time i was outside hanging out with them i was 16 they wasn't sending me to the store
13:50they sent like 11 year old 12 13 13 but they're not sending me to the store no nobody sent
13:56me to
13:56the store i've always been the lone wolf the black wolf that's me solo not a black wolf
14:02black wolf yo yo hello i speak to webb this is webb what's up bro webb i'm on air man
14:12i'm just
14:13calling him accent he on the phone
14:17i'm trying to jump in yeah hey webb i'm sitting here with queen's flip and we having a talk
14:24somebody asked flip if he's ever been sent to the store
14:44He didn't even hesitate
14:45I mean the relatable part of this
14:48Is if you've ever just had someone call you on your lie
14:50Right to your face
14:51Yeah that's exactly what it was
14:53And for the record I've been sent to the store as a kid
14:56I was like 11 years old
14:57And the older dudes in the hood
14:59Like hey go around here give me something to eat
15:01And you can keep the change
15:02I'm like okay
15:04Yeah so I guess that's frowned upon at this point
15:08Is it?
15:09I don't understand
15:10I think it's part of growing up
15:11Yeah like somebody was older than you
15:13And had authority over you at some point
15:14Some people feel like they were a big dog
15:18From the I guess coming out the womb man
15:21Yeah
15:21I don't know I don't get it
15:22Well he did but he was lying
15:23I don't know I don't know I don't know him
15:23I don't know him
15:23I don't know him
