What’s the weirdest phone call you have ever received?

Sure no problem officer.

No sir I sure don't, I live in the next city over.

I was trying to reach out to you because we have a Mr X here, who claims you are his legal guardian. He needs you to come down and sign some forms.

What do you think of the Black history lessons in the PBS documentary about jazz pianist-singer Hazel Scott?

After a few moments he returns.

How do you feel cockroach?

Whew, not in trouble!! But someone named Sean with a similar number is apparently about to have a rather bad day.

Do you reside at 1234 X X Lane?

Is your number (xxx) xxx-xxxx??

How do Flat Earthers explain time zones?

Long pause, OK. (Inaudible talking). Could you hang on for just a sec?

I hear a pause on the line, it goes quiet for a few seconds.

Do what? Officer, I'm sorry I have no kids of my own, and I don't know anybody by that name.

HELLO

Looks at phone, sees a number local to me, so I answered.

Yes sir it is.

Can you tell me something about yourself?

I'm sorry to bother you, my staff just told me our guy corrected his information and had a number off for his home phone. Have a good day. Hangs up.

Hi this is Sargent Moss from the County detention center. Is this Sean?
