"So, if you're listening to this late, just pretend that you're working an overnight shift in one of the most dangerous areas in the country. Perhaps Detroit, let's say you're working in Detroit, uh, police dispatch. And these are a sample of some of the calls." — Marcus Parks
"Don't bother with it. Baby stomping music. Speaking of babies and stomping and making wine. Today, we're going to be listening to some real 911 phone calls. And they are very disturbing." — Ben Kissel
"I mean, this is a murderer. I hate this shit. Sir calm down. Everything is going to be fine. I hate this shit. Sir calm down. Everything is going to be fine. Why did you kill her, sir? Because she left me." — Speaker (Weepy Voiced Killer)
The episode begins by introducing the theme of disturbing 911 calls, with hosts acknowledging the intense nature of the content and its potential release schedule. They frame the recordings as a way to contextualize personal difficulties by comparison, suggesting that listening to these calls can make listeners' own problems seem less significant. The hosts also hint at a shift in their typical comedic approach, particularly for the month of October, alluding to an increase in darker, more intense content.
The first segment explores the concept of the "death rattle" with audio examples, transitioning into a discussion about the "Weepy Voiced Killer," Paul Michael Stefani. Stefani was convicted of multiple murders and notably called 911 himself after his crimes, expressing remorse in a distinctive high-pitched voice. The hosts play excerpts of these calls and discuss his motivations and confessions, highlighting the unusual nature of his actions and the subsequent legal proceedings.
The episode continues by introducing another segment intended to be less humorous, focusing on the infamous murder of JonBenét Ramsey. While specific audio from the Ramsey case isn't directly played in the provided transcript, the mention sets the stage for further exploration of deeply unsettling true crime events, underscoring the podcast's commitment to covering extreme narratives.
