This is just poor transcription.

The full conversation was as follows:

Officer 1: “I like those big cats.”

Officer 2: “Yeah? Tigers or leopards?”

Officer 1: “Which is spotted?”

I thought it was about gardening

Officer 1: There’s a garden of nightshade

Officer 2: That could be tomatoes or potatoes

Officer 1: Which is potted?

Definitely a crossword.

Officer 1: Thirteen down. Ten letters. Another name for a cauldron. Starts with ‘w’, ends with ‘t’.

Officer 2: That’s a witches’ pot, Ted.

I live in IN, across the river from KY. This sounds completely on brand.

Do you ever take the time to gaze across the river and feel like you’re looking at a zoo enclosure?

Looking across the river into Kentucky from Indiana, is like being a bonobo in one zoo enclosure looking at the enclosure next to yours’ full of chimpanzees.

You should be the US’s official cultural and geographical explainer to the dozens of us foreigners that are on the internet these days. I’ve just learnt all I need to know about two places/states in one sentence. To follow the analogy perhaps you should rename the river between the two places “Congo”.

Unfortunately not. Once I had tuned in they either weren’t talking about it anymore or switched to an encrypted channel. In my mind I’d like to believe it’s the second 'cause some crazy ass bullshit is going down with some witches in Kentucky.

At this link you can try to listen back if you know the time it happened. I love that scanner app. It pulls from Broadcastify.com

13 minutes before the timestamp in the screenshot’s metadata.

Also, autocorrect thought you should look at the tomato in the metadata instead.

Perhaps he’s affecting a Cockney accent and saying “Which 'es spott’ed”

The computer just didn’t know what to do with the “innit”

Mildly Interesting

This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it’s too interesting, it doesn’t belong. If it’s not interesting, it doesn’t belong.

This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh… what do we know?

Just post some stuff and don’t spam.
