HIGH STAKES HEISTS, HAPPINESS HACKS, AND THE BATTLE OF THE SEXES RAGES ON!
Ever wondered how a serial bank robber stays one step ahead of the law? Join us as we unravel the high-stakes tale of "Hollywood," a daring thief whose audacious heists captivated the nation. With insights from Ellen Glasser, aN FBI agent who oversaw the case, we dissect the Netflix documentary "How to Rob a Bank." Experience the blend of dramatization, real footage, and unique storytelling techniques that make this true crime narrative a must-watch for anyone fascinated by the cat-and-mouse game between law enforcement and criminals.
Switching gears, we dive into the world of nostalgia with "Brats," Andrew McCarthy’s reflective documentary on the Brat Pack era. While some might find it a nostalgic trip down memory lane, Eden found it a bit self-indulgent and lacking substance.
But that's not all—we sprinkle in some practical life hacks to make your daily routine more productive and positive. From the quirky joy of complimenting every Ford Transit van you see to the practicality of using a laundry basket for grocery shopping, these tips are sure to add a little fun and efficiency to your life.
Welcome to Eden and Amadeus the podcast. Let me warn you right now I may be coughing. Throughout the podcast I have this weird, weird thing in my throat, it's like a dry spot. That I cannot like fix.
Speaker 2:Well, you've got your cough drops, you've got your.
Speaker 1:What is that? Your tea, my tea.
Speaker 2:Hopefully that's going to get you through, so we'll let other people do a lot of the talking today.
Speaker 3:All right.
Speaker 2:We've got a couple of things to share with you. First of all, there are a couple of really great documentaries out there right now and a couple that are just not that great. One of the ones that is very entertaining on Netflix is called how to Rob a Bank. There's a local angle here in Jacksonville, northeast Florida, where we live, so we're going to be talking with. If you've seen the trailers, you'll see there is a female FBI agent. She's actually the supervisor of the task force that was set out to apprehend a bank robber called Hollywood, and she's local here, so we're going to talk to her a little bit about that. So if you watch the documentary, or you plan to watch the documentary, you're going to really, really enjoy that conversation.
Speaker 1:This is a documentary that I normally would not have watched. I'm not a fan of those crime dramas and you know, I know the podcasts are really really hot right now. All the crime mystery and I would have never this would not have been on my radar. But then you told me about it and said we should watch this before we speak with our guests. And man did. I love it.
Speaker 2:It's got that Point Break feeling to it too. It I love it. It's got that Point Break feeling to it too, because this bank robber modeled himself after Bodhi from Point Break who, if you remember and I'm talking about the original, I never saw the remake, but that's the Patrick Swayze character in that Keanu Reeves Patrick Swayze movie. It's a phenomenal caper documentary and part of it is dramatization, part of it is interviews, part of it is real footage.
Speaker 1:And the thing for me, more than the subject, was the filmmaking. Yes, Like they use storyboards to tell the story, which it's really an original idea, and the actors portraying the characters you know you never really see their faces because they're in prosthetics. So it's so believable that it's actual footage and they tie it in with real grainy footage from cameras, so it's really fascinating.
Speaker 2:And it's really really well made. Not only that, but they talk with some key players. Some key players we're talking about people that were there for this- oh yeah.
Speaker 1:And it's just great You're going to hear from Ellen Glasser she is in the trailer, so you'll see her in the trailer, but also in the whole documentary throughout. There's another documentary that wasn't on my radar, and now it's really not on my radar because you saw it brats, I gotta say is it brats or brat pack brats? It's just called brats.
Speaker 2:Yes, okay it's called brats. It's about the brat pack and called Brats. It's about the Brat Pack, but it's not. It's about Andrew McCarthy, who was one of the Brat Pack. If you are too young to know, that is the group of actors in the 80s, late 80s, midday late 80s rather that were in a bunch of movies, some of them together overlapping. They were all in St In St Elmo's Fire, the ones that are really truly considered to be then. There are some that are just kind of adjacent and Andrew McCarthy really resented and felt harmed by the New York Times story where the writer of it headlined it Rat Pack as a reference to the old Rat Pack, and he feels like it really made his whole career shift.
Speaker 1:Back then I thought it was a compliment. All these then I thought it was a compliment. Yeah, all these years I thought it was a compliment. I never thought that any one of the members of that group would ever see it as anything but like saying this is the new Frank Sinatra. You know, sammy Davis Jr.
Speaker 2:Yeah, these are the guys to watch these are the guys to watch.
Speaker 1:I never saw it as anything negative.
Speaker 2:Well evidently they all thought it was an unnecessary and not terrific thing. I mean, when he talks he sits down with many of them and some people, like I said that, were just kind of like along with that group and they all agree that yeah, that was unfortunate, but nobody seemed to have taken it nearly as hard as he did. So it came across as kind of whiny and self-indulgent to me. Some reviewers think it's phenomenal filmmaking. It's a great, angsty, raw thing. I thought it was boring. That's just me. So if you're on the fence you don't have a lot of time and you're thinking, eh, some people are going to love it.
Speaker 1:That's another thing. Too time I and you're thinking, eh, some people are going to love it. That's another thing. Too time I feel like I hardly have any time to watch anything anymore now, so I'm very selective with what I do. I watch my Star Wars shows, my Marvel shows and Jeopardy and that's about it.
Speaker 2:The one I've been raving about to anyone who will listen is called Acapulco and it's on Apple and I can't tell you how great that's up there with me now with Ted Lasso. So if you really are looking for something interesting and different to binge, that's it. Acapulco, that's my, that's my recommendation, but there are so many things out there, let's get right into. We've got the battle of the sexes, of course, coming up. We've got the Ellen Glasser how to rob a bank interview coming up, but also some life hacks that we came across. I say we I don't know if you've seen these.
Speaker 1:I think I saw them, but I didn't read. That's one of those things. A lot of times we'll see things, we both see things, and I'll be like, oh, this is something that Eden can tell me and I can give her like a natural response to Okay, so I didn't read these.
Speaker 2:That's what's is a guy. This guy says these are just some silly life hacks that somebody compiled. This first one is from a guy who says that he's trying to be more positive in general, so he decided to pick something and compliment it every time he saw it, and so he picked ford transit vans. Maybe that's something he didn't like to see before, I don't know so he said literally a dozen times a day. He would find himself saying nice ford transit. So that way he's quicker to compliment others and finding positivity in the mundane.
Speaker 1:That is a really really interesting exercise.
Speaker 2:It's almost like that whole thing with the Jeep wave. I remember when I took over driving our Jeep, which we don't have anymore, but my husband, when he passed it to me, he said two rules Don't take any of these panels off, because I know you and you won't be able to put them back on and you have to wave to other Jeeps.
Speaker 1:I feel like most vehicles have that. I know with Honda Element. The Element fans are the same way. Yeah, we like to wave and acknowledge.
Speaker 2:Carry a wide laundry basket in your vehicle. Put all your groceries in that. It makes bringing them inside a one-trip move. I've been doing a laundry basket in my vehicle lately. I put things that I'm going to bring with me in the morning in there and then I bring things in from my car in there just because I'm trying to get organized.
Speaker 1:That's really smart, very smart.
Speaker 2:More on that at another time because there's a whole big thing. I'm reading this book that's kind of been making me do things differently and I'm working with an organizer. We'll share that more later. When someone you like or respect does something confusingly infuriating, imagine the most favorable to them possible explanation for why they did it and pretend that's true. So I guess. For example, we heard somebody swearing up and down the other day on a phone call, angry, and part of you wants to say that person was being a jerk and angry and irritable. But then we started to think what if they were advocating on behalf of somebody else? We don't know the story.
Speaker 1:Right, we don't know the whole story. We literally only know half the story.
Speaker 2:Right. So just trying to always think in terms of what could be a hero thing in that story versus a villain thing in that story. Take two to ten minutes to tidy up your home before you go to bed at night. The next morning you're going to feel way better oh my gosh, I need to do that.
Speaker 2:I need to do that well, this is part of my new self that I'm trying to put forward my, my friend, who I also have a podcast with, called uncluttered and unfiltered. She's a professional organizer and she told me the other day she says I would like to see you spend five minutes a day organizing. Wow so just five minutes, just five minutes.
Speaker 1:I don't have a dishwasher. I've never had a dishwasher in my life Like, or if I've been in an apartment that had one, I just didn't use it, and probably the worst thing that I do is let dishes pile up, and so ever since this year started, I've made a point to not go to bed with any dishes in the sink, and when I come out in the morning it does make you feel better, or when you get home from work.
Speaker 2:Yes, exactly, and here's the thing I misspoke, because I said organizing, but she said putting things where they go. Five minutes a day putting things where they go, and five minutes is no time at all. So I'll come home from work and I'll plop everything down.
Speaker 1:Right.
Speaker 2:And then you and I, because of our crazy schedule, I'll take a nap.
Speaker 1:Right.
Speaker 2:But would it kill me? And this is what I've done all week long. No, I'll nap in five minutes.
Speaker 1:But do this first.
Speaker 2:But I'll do this first. If you say to yourself I'm going to put everything away and then I'll take a nap, it sounds daunting. But if you say I'm going to spend five minutes, I'm going to delay my nap by five minutes.
Speaker 1:I'm a nudist at home and I'll come home and literally just take everything off and put it like on a, on a chair or something, and then at the end of the so again this year I have a pretty big closet. I've been going right into the closet every day and I'll get undressed there and put everything either in the hamper or like hang my belt or whatever. I've been really, really good about that this year.
Speaker 2:I saw a video the other day it was like a TikTok or an Instagram and it said here say these words to yourself throughout the day, don't put it down, put it away. Don't put it down put it away and put it away, don't put it down, put it away and I've been saying that, I've been saying five minutes and don't put it down, put it away. If you always put your keys in the same place, you won't lose them, obviously.
Speaker 1:And then that's not you, is it?
Speaker 2:Well, it is now. I'm trying really, really hard, but it's definitely not me and keeping only fruit as snacks next to my computer when I'm sitting at my desk and the closest thing is an apple. I'm usually too lazy to get up and look for anything else that's less healthy.
Speaker 1:And you always have oranges and bananas next to your desk and I still cheat. But at least I do have that too.
Speaker 2:You're at least consuming the things you're supposed to consume.
Speaker 2:That's a good thing. I'm going to start doing that, I think, more and more with a banana. The other thing that I saw somebody say on one of these organizing now that my my partner on my podcast is not about this I know already she wouldn't be about this, but it made really good sense to me and it said as far as making sure you're eating your healthier foods and your fruit and your produce and your veggies and all of this, put your condiments in the drawers of your fridge. Put your healthy, fresher items on the shelves, because you will look for a condiment. You won't go looking for the healthy snack, but if you are thinking I need mustard, you're not going to stop until you find your mustard.
Speaker 1:Right, that's smart. I mean put it there where you have to see it.
Speaker 2:But if your apple is sitting out, you'll see it, but if your mustard is sitting out and your apple's in, the drawer it's not doing you any good. Anyway, that's just one way to look at it. All right, still got the Battle of the Sexes replay coming your way. But let's talk a little bit about how to rob a bank. And we are joined by former mayor of Atlantic Beach, which is an, and Ellen Glasser. I've always known her to be a no-nonsense kind of lady. I didn't know her to be quite the badass former.
Speaker 2:FBI agent that she is. So we told you a little bit about this documentary at the start, but we'll hear more about it in her own words Sure.
Speaker 4:This documentary from Netflix is about a case that I supervised and worked when I was in the FBI in Seattle back in the 1990s. So it tells the story of three good guys, working hard together, despite different personalities, going after a serial bank robber who had robbed many banks in Portland and Seattle between 1992 and 1995. So it tells a story of how we planned to capture him and it's a very interesting story about interesting people and we got everybody to cooperate, from friends of the robbers to the robbers to the good guys and other bad guys, and I hope folks will watch it.
Speaker 2:And the bank robber himself goes by Hollywood and he is eccentric, is such an understatement I don't even know where to start. He's a fascinating bank robber because he wears a disguise and they call him Hollywood and it's just amazing.
Speaker 4:Well, we named him Hollywood because of the sort of theatrical makeup that he wore to go into the banks, and so if you watch the documentary, you'll see why that name was so fitting for him.
Speaker 2:Tell us about how this week has been. The documentary came out. What this past weekend it came?
Speaker 4:out what this past weekend. It came out on June the 5th, so it's been out for a few days now and have the people you know, and you know a lot of people.
Speaker 2:Have the people you know in this part of your life, your Atlantic Beach, jacksonville life. Were they stunned to find out that you are just a badass? I mean, we knew you were, but like been in gunfights and stuff.
Speaker 4:Well, I don't call myself a badass. It was a badass job and I was fortunate that they had the confidence to put me in it. But yes, people are stunned because this really is sort of a different life for me. It's a life before I came to Jacksonville and I had the opportunity to supervise several violent crimes task forces when I was in the FBI and this was one of the best cases. So, yeah, they're kind of stunned and it's really fun to think back on those really dynamic days that I was working these cases with all these agents and detectives.
Speaker 1:I know we've never met face-to-face, but I've never talked to anyone who's been in a real, real, honest-to-god gunfight. And that scene in the movie I was just like what the heck's going to happen now?
Speaker 4:And that scene in the movie, I was just like what the heck's going to happen now. Well, luckily the outcome was very favorable. But there were a lot of things going on and I don't know if it really comes out in the Netflix documentary. But you know, I'm a mother and I had, like a child, a baby named Harry. He's a firefighter in Jacksonville. Hi Harry, hi Harry. And I just never expected that, with everything that went on, that I would be the one in the gunfight. Right, I thought it was going to be somebody else, but anyway, bullets were flying everywhere. I was right in the middle of a cross fire and, you know, luckily, you know Hollywood the primary bank robber bailed out and ran off and you know, his end came the following day. But, yeah, we managed to get two of the robbers that night after a gunfight.
Speaker 2:It's such a crazy story and you know we did give a little spoiler alert before you got to that part. So people who were watching because, like when I was watching, I had no idea how it would unfold A lot of times I Google in advance and I want to know what happened, but I didn't want to know at all. I mean, I could glean from the past tense use of Scott's name that he was done. But you know throughout, when you first posted on Facebook about this documentary, you said you weren't sure how much of you you would see in it, what big of a, how big a part you would play. Were you surprised when you guys watched it back at? You know that you're like main, main character energy there.
Speaker 4:Well, I was surprised and it it gave me a lot of pride. I wasn't involved in any of the production issues or the choices that that they made, but I think they chose to sort of. I think they chose to sort of show the duality of my roles and you know the duality between the dynamic of the detective and the other FBI agent and the duality that that that Hollywood had in terms of the way he lived and the choices that he made. So I hope I brought a human element to this, that it was real, it traumatized people. I mean I thought about this case for every day for years afterwards and thought, well, what could I have done better? But I mean it is a tragedy. But it demonstrates that crime really does not pay and the more bold he got, the more serious we were about not letting him, you know, do this anymore. So I mean it came. I always knew it was a great story.
Speaker 1:I just never expected that this many years later people would be telling it it's, it's very cool, I have to say it was a great story and it could have been a movie on its own, but I'll tell you what I loved about the documentary as a movie lover. The documentary was made almost with with drawings, like a storyboard of how the movie would have moved along, and I really loved that aspect of the filmmaking of the documentary well, um, one one of the directors actually lives in Atlantic Peach, where I live, and I'm sure he'll love to hear that feedback when I share it.
Speaker 4:I didn't know what choices they were going to make, like I said, but I had never seen much of that video I mean Hollywood's hard not to look at and I'd never seen or read the diary, so that was all new to me. But I think the diary and the video really made the story fascinating.
Speaker 1:I agree. The first time we see him walk out of the woods I was thinking, oh my gosh, they have footage of him Like. This is really cool.
Speaker 2:And boy he, he did not mind being all naked.
Speaker 4:No, no he definitely, he definitely did not mind that, I mean, and that's the kind of character he was, he does. If you look at point break again, it's, you know the movie's been out for a long, long time and you know, patrick patrick swayze is the character I mean. You really do see the, the parallels and kind of how they live their lives. So you know, the moral of the story is crime doesn't pay. But it sure was fascinating because when we didn't know who Hollywood was, as you know, after it all ended and you know, we found this tree house and we heard about all these people that sort of followed him and this whole Robin Hood theme. I mean it, it, it, you know you, you can't make that stuff up, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's a great story.
Speaker 2:I mean just the whole like he. He put on that, the prosthetics and the sunglasses and the whole thing. It was bonkers, but I loved the, the detective work, that figuring out how much he got, how much time would go between so what, how many dollars he was. You know, it would take him to get to the next robbery and figuring out like he's probably going to hit at this time. It's just amazing police work, it's amazing detective work.
Speaker 4:Well it was, well it was. And I think that that also shows that I don't think we would have been as successful as soon if we hadn't brought everybody together. And that was the thing. For me, being the head of the task force is getting the resources and getting these kind of two people who weren't really like each other to work together because Mike had the street covered I mean, he was just driving out all the time waiting for the next bank robbery and then the other guy, the FBI agent, sort of calculating when he thought it was going to happen where, and then getting the cooperation of the banks. It really, you know the sum of the parts of the people that participated. It was much greater than the individual. So it was a great time. Of course, seattle was crazy with bank robberies back then. Who doesn't love a good cops and robbers story?
Speaker 2:right. Whose idea was it to turn this into a documentary?
Speaker 4:Well, this is the strange thing. I mean the director, his parents, live in Atlantic Beach and so when I was first elected mayor, he reached out to me when I was mayor and he said you know, I'm interested in this story because you know you could Google it and find it. But anyway, so this is many years ago, so it's been a long time in the making, and then when they got Netflix involved, it took on a whole nother level so, and Netflix was committed to it from day one, but they wanted to get it right. So the two, the two guys that were sort of the primary people to make this happen, I mean they have, you know, they've done work that that is, you know, highly regarded, and so Netflix gave them a lot of latitude. But yeah, so it all started really in my neighborhood.
Speaker 1:And it all paid off really really well.
Speaker 4:Yeah, yeah, it did. It did so and they got everybody to participate and I think even the directors are kind of stunned that everybody feels like it was a very accurate retelling of the story. Of course there's a lot more that's not in there, but that's for another day. But yeah, it's a lot of fun. The title should probably be how Not to Rob a Bank.
Speaker 1:I was thinking the same thing. I was thinking why do you want to tell people how to rob a bank?
Speaker 2:But it is how to rob a bank. But well, it is how to rob a bank, though, because there were a lot of things that he did and figured out. Yeah, that you know it was pretty incredible. I mean, if he would have stopped before he got caught, he successfully did rob lots of banks that way yes, he did, and I will say that after you know when it was actually happening.
Speaker 4:um, we really couldn't talk about the techniques that were used, and so you know now. I mean, everything's got GPS on it, so you know you can tell the story without giving away the sources and methods. So yeah, but you know that was a creative choice and probably one that pays off for for Netflix.
Speaker 2:Well, it's definitely intriguing. It's a super fun watch, which you know. There are a lot of documentaries out there that you feel guilty almost enjoying, but this one because because now there were people hurt. As you point out in the documentary there's trauma involved in a bank robbery, but because, like you said, none of the good guys ended up getting physically hurt and because he is so intriguing it is a. It is a fun watch and it was exciting for us because we know you, but it's a good watch for anyone. Well, did, did you?
Speaker 4:know, when you, when you watched it, that that it was going to have this local connection.
Speaker 2:Did I know? Yeah, I only watched it because you had posted about it. So, yes, oh, okay. And then I watched the trailer, saw you and I was like, yes, I'm going to watch it. But for anybody who didn't know that I mean obviously a lot of people watched it regardless because it was in the top ten on Netflix.
Speaker 4:It was number five last time I looked. But yeah, I am hearing from people all over the country that because it's trending, they watch it, and I think I'm in the first couple of minutes. So at that point then I get a text. I get a text or a message, something like that.
Speaker 1:The next time you look it's going to be number four.
Speaker 4:Then three.
Speaker 2:Then four, then three, Then two, Then one.
Speaker 4:Well, I don't know how that works, but I'm just going to enjoy it while it lasts. It is a great story and it's nice to think back on my FBI career and think that we did a lot of good things in that task force. We worked a lot of good things and that task force, we worked a lot of great cases. This is just one story, but it's very gratifying. I love it.
Speaker 2:I love it too. One more question, and then we're going to let you get on with your day, ellen. What did your kids say?
Speaker 4:Well, none of them have chosen to go into the FBI. Uh-huh, um, none of them have chosen to go into the FBI. You know it's the story where it happened the night before Thanksgiving. So they remember that. You know we carted them to the next door neighbor's house so that they could have Thanksgiving dinner with the neighbors, and but they're, they're proud. I mean, you know, especially like for my son. You know he doesn't really remember what I did when I was in the FBI, so there's a newfound respect for what mom did. So you know, it's it's, it's great. They are enjoying it.
Speaker 2:I wouldn't want to go up against Ellen in the battle of the sexes, that is for sure.
Speaker 1:She's a badass, she is. She is a badass, she really really is.
Speaker 2:Well, I hope you enjoyed that. I hope you're going to check out that Netflix documentary so we can see it go to number one.
