To create bizarre and entertaining nuggets of candid camera ear candy segments to be presented here. The various “Gold Fragments” in this episode begins with the captured audio from a location at a restaurant, where Mike Recine and I had lunch. The second audio “nugget” for this episode is a hyper-abbreviated phone call and meeting that will be repackaged.Featuring Let Us Be Idiots’ very own recurring character, Big Chief, aka John LoCicero, who was the former assistant and campaign manager for New York City’s former Mayor Ed Koch, on the line with Arnold N. Kriss, a lawyer who has written many articles published in The Daily News newspaper over the years.This clip really puts the spotlight on the pure comedy in OG New York banter. The final “nugget” for this episode starts with aphone call between TheTruePooka, a formerly well-known YouTube commentator. What was discussed can be paraphrased as “Six degrees of separation with Kevin Bacon.” Around a prominent and infamous YouTube personality and Philosopher, who has used the moniker inmendham forages. Once that segment concludes, Matteo Pascale attempts to discuss the truly bizarre and dark situation that made headlines in news outlets in May 2025, by incorporating experimental and dark editing elements. ***Outro Rap lyrics were written and performed by @jdange23 and the beat was produced by Matteo Pascale.***All other content can be found on the website: https://www.crooklyncomedy.com/Crooklyn Comedy and Let Us Be Idiots Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/user?u=66644629Social media links:Main Twitter: https://twitter.com/MatteoPascaleCrooklyn Comedy Twitter: https://twitter.com/CrooklynComedyMain Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/comedianmatteopascale/Crooklyn Comedy Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/crooklyncomedy/Let Us Be Idiots Podcast Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/letusbeidiots/Matteo Pascale’s Website:https://www.crooklyncomedy.com/
