Title: Prank Calls
Post by: splent on August 19, 2017, 09:47:49 PM

I know it's been a kajillion years since I last posted but I needed to post this.

I love watching prank calls on youtube.

Especially Cspan calls, but local access has gems too.

Here are a few of my favorites:

Public access: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5gRSHe0pSdc (especially at 3:06 when he talks about harley riding)

Cspan: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YRWen6392yA (my favorite is at 0:34)

Cspan: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jHg2HUFTKag (one of my favorites from the 2012 election)

There's more, obviously. Anyone have others?

(related, i love stupid 911 calls too, but I'm not posting them. yet.)

I enjoyed the recordings of the at this point very old, Tube Bar calls.

Pretty influential, being tied to The Simpsons.

I really like the more contemporary flavor of prank calls, video game soundboards: https://youtu.be/M85oA-ANXPY?t=41s

The best ones are always when telemarketers call people who like to fuck with them. When somebody's trying to sell something they can be jerked around indefinitely.
