Mysterious voicemail mystery solved, sort of | Matt Connarton Unleashed

0:00 Speaker 1: I received a very strange voicemail on Wednesday evening. I'm

0:05 Speaker 1: gonna give you a little teaser because we're probably going

0:07 Speaker 1: to circle back to this later and this will all

0:10 Speaker 1: make sense in the end, I promise. But if you're

0:13 Speaker 1: someone who's who maybe only listened to part of the

0:15 Speaker 1: show some of the show, you're gonna.

0:16 Speaker 2: Want to listen to the whole thing today.

0:17 Speaker 1: See this is how I hook you in, because we

0:20 Speaker 1: are going to revisit this later in the show. But

0:22 Speaker 1: on Wednesday night, just after nine pm, I received a

0:25 Speaker 1: very very strange voicemail. By the way, this is not

0:27 Speaker 1: a bit. This is all one hundred percent legit. This

0:30 Speaker 1: really happened. I received this exact anonymous voicemail. But here's

0:36 Speaker 1: the hook. I do believe I've identified who this person is.

0:41 Speaker 1: But it's not somebody I know personally, not somebody I've

0:43 Speaker 1: ever met. But it is someone who, if I'm right,

0:46 Speaker 1: they have called the show before. But this recording that

0:51 Speaker 1: I'm about to play for you is not from the show.

0:53 Speaker 1: This is from my voicemail. And by the way, I

0:55 Speaker 1: did have to edit it because to be able to

0:58 Speaker 1: air it on FM radio, I did have to do

1:00 Speaker 1: a little editing, which will be obvious when you hear it,

1:02 Speaker 1: when you hear the bleeps. But this is the voicemail

1:05 Speaker 1: that I got Wednesday night, just after nine pm.

1:08 Speaker 3: Who is Matt Connorton.

1:12 Speaker 4: You're not Mat Connorton? And it was so fake because

1:17 Speaker 4: it's AI or whatever.

1:19 Speaker 3: Who the think is Matt Connorton.

1:20 Speaker 4: Babe, what's wrong? It's not valid, it's incorrect, It's wrong.

1:31 Speaker 4: Matt Connorton. Matt Connorton.

1:35 Speaker 1: Now I just tell you so. I went to bed

1:38 Speaker 1: Wednesday night thinking it's probably a soccer and I'm about

1:42 Speaker 1: to be murdered. No, I didn't think that, but I

1:44 Speaker 1: did go to bed Wednesday night thinking that voice is

1:46 Speaker 1: very familiar to me. I feel like I've heard that

1:49 Speaker 1: voice somewhere and I can't place it. I woke up

1:53 Speaker 1: Thursday morning, Thursday morning, my eyes pop open, and I

1:56 Speaker 1: think I know where I've heard that voice before, and

2:01 Speaker 1: it was on my show. That person is called my show,

2:05 Speaker 1: and that's where I've heard the voice. And again we'll

2:10 Speaker 1: circle back to it later in the show. It might

2:12 Speaker 1: not be until the third hour, it might not be

2:14 Speaker 1: till the end of the show, but I will reveal

2:16 Speaker 1: to you before this show concludes today, where I have

2:20 Speaker 1: heard that voice before, and who I believe that individual

2:24 Speaker 1: might be. Right now, what we're gonna do as promised.

2:28 Speaker 1: If you were listening from the beginning of the show today,

2:31 Speaker 1: you might have heard me play some audio for you

2:35 Speaker 1: from a very mysterious voicemail that I received on Wednesday

2:41 Speaker 1: night just after nine pm. And I'm going to play

2:45 Speaker 1: that for you again. If you missed it, I'm going

2:47 Speaker 1: to play that voicemail for you, the edited version. I

2:49 Speaker 1: had to clean it up for FM radio, but it's short,

2:53 Speaker 1: it's only about thirty seconds. But I got this very mysterious,

2:57 Speaker 1: anonymous voicemail and I went to bed Wednesday night thinking

3:02 Speaker 1: I've heard this voice before. I don't know where, but

3:06 Speaker 1: there's something familiar about this voice. And then Thursday morning,

3:09 Speaker 1: the next morning, my eyes popped open and I said,

3:11 Speaker 1: I know where I've heard that before. So I'm going

3:14 Speaker 1: to play the voicemail for you, and then I'm going

3:17 Speaker 1: to play the segment of this show, not the entire segment,

3:21 Speaker 1: but I'm gonna play the one little part of a

3:24 Speaker 1: segment from this show a few years ago when my

3:27 Speaker 1: guest on that day, well, I had two guests in

3:30 Speaker 1: the studio with me. One of them was Huey the Gecko,

3:32 Speaker 1: who was the main focus of the segment. But also

3:35 Speaker 1: with Huey was Aaron billideo who was just here with

3:38 Speaker 1: us live in studio. So it is a small world

3:41 Speaker 1: getting smaller all the time. But Aaron Billideau was here

3:44 Speaker 1: that day too, so you might even hear his voice

3:48 Speaker 1: in the clip that I play. But I'm just gonna

3:50 Speaker 1: play I'm gonna play for you the part where this

3:52 Speaker 1: person calls in.

3:53 Speaker 4: I am.

3:54 Speaker 1: I'm gonna say, I'm about ninety five percent sure that

3:58 Speaker 1: it's the same person. I really believe that it's the

4:01 Speaker 1: same person again. The first time, the one time actually

4:06 Speaker 1: that they called into the show was a few years ago.

4:09 Speaker 2: So I don't know why this is happening. I don't

4:11 Speaker 2: know what's going on here. It's very strange, very mysterious.

4:16 Speaker 2: I don't know. But I'm gonna play for you.

4:18 Speaker 1: First, I'm gonna play I'm gonna play the voicemail that

4:20 Speaker 1: I got, and then I'm going to play that clip

4:23 Speaker 1: from that segment of my show, the one time that

4:27 Speaker 1: this individual actually called into the show. Okay, so here's

4:31 Speaker 1: the voicemail again. I received this just after nine pm

4:33 Speaker 1: Wednesday night.

4:34 Speaker 3: Who is Matt Connorton.

4:37 Speaker 4: You're not met Connorton And it was so fake because

4:42 Speaker 4: it's AI or whatever. Who the thing is Matt Connorton, Babe,

4:47 Speaker 4: what's wrong?

4:50 Speaker 3: It's not.

4:52 Speaker 4: Valid, it's incorrect, It's wrong. Matt Connorton. Connorton.

5:02 Speaker 2: Okay.

5:02 Speaker 1: So now I'm going to play for you again. And

5:06 Speaker 1: if you're looking for this online, the title of the segment,

5:09 Speaker 1: it's on YouTube. The segment is called You the Get

5:12 Speaker 1: Go mercilessly trolled by pod Awful cult on Matt Connorton

5:17 Speaker 1: Unleashed And if you're not familiar, pod Awful as a

5:21 Speaker 1: podcast and stream hosted by jesseps and he's a controversial figure.

5:28 Speaker 1: But he's been on the show too. Jesse's been on

5:30 Speaker 1: the show, and I've been on his show like several

5:32 Speaker 1: years ago. But here it is. This is so that's

5:37 Speaker 1: the name of the clip. If you're looking for it online,

5:39 Speaker 1: the name of the segment. But here's here's the little

5:40 Speaker 1: bit that that voice where we hear that same voice

5:44 Speaker 1: what I believe is the same voice. Yes, we should

5:47 Speaker 1: not smirch Frankenstein and we have a call. Hi, welcome

5:51 Speaker 1: to Matt Connorton unleashed.

5:52 Speaker 2: Who's this.

5:55 Speaker 5: Hi?

5:56 Speaker 6: I was just calling and I wanted to call to

5:59 Speaker 6: speak to like speak about Kiuie they get go.

6:02 Speaker 1: Yes, he is here at the news desk.

6:05 Speaker 5: Hi jade, Hi, how are you doing?

6:10 Speaker 4: I'm doing good.

6:11 Speaker 6: How's it going good?

6:13 Speaker 5: You?

6:16 Speaker 2: Well, this is how.

6:19 Speaker 6: I've been a fan of Hue. They get go for

6:22 Speaker 6: a little bit. And I think that that last guy

6:26 Speaker 6: was kind of a loser, and that music is pretty cool,

6:29 Speaker 6: and you know, the territory comes with haters, so I

6:32 Speaker 6: would never let the haters get to you.

6:35 Speaker 2: No, he clearly, he clearly does not. And uh, you know,

6:39 Speaker 2: but hey, you know, everyone's a critic.

6:41 Speaker 5: Have you ever had a rare section of your vinyl

6:43 Speaker 5: collection where you could carry about thirty of them? But

6:45 Speaker 5: the weight of those two was way more than the

6:48 Speaker 5: weight of those thirty. The weight of the words that

6:50 Speaker 5: woman that just spoke right there meant way more than

6:52 Speaker 5: any of the callers that came on before.

6:54 Speaker 1: Oh well, very nice, well done, Jed, well done.

7:00 Speaker 6: All right, Well keep doing what you do, Hui the echo.

7:03 Speaker 5: Bye, thank you so much.

7:05 Speaker 2: Thank you.

7:06 Speaker 1: All right, So that's the call, so I believe that's

7:09 Speaker 1: the same. Now, let's listen one more time to the voicemail.

7:12 Speaker 3: Who is Matt Connorton.

7:15 Speaker 4: You're not Met Connorton, And it was so fake because

7:20 Speaker 4: it's AI or whatever.

7:22 Speaker 3: Who the think is Matt Connorton.

7:24 Speaker 4: Babe, what's wrong?

7:28 Speaker 3: It's not.

7:30 Speaker 4: Valid, it's incorrect, it's wrong. Matt Connorton is Matt Connorton.

7:39 Speaker 1: So there you go, So you be the judge. But

7:42 Speaker 1: like I said, I'm about ninety five percent sure that

7:45 Speaker 1: it is the same individual who called. The person who

7:49 Speaker 1: left me that voicemail was the same person as the

7:51 Speaker 1: one who called into the show that time that Huey

7:54 Speaker 1: the Gecko was here and was being mercilessly trolled by

7:57 Speaker 1: a member of the Pod Awful cult.

7:59 Speaker 2: By the way, if you ever go.

8:01 Speaker 1: And listen to the full segment, if you haven't heard it,

8:03 Speaker 1: it's again, it's on YouTube. It's one of my favorite

8:06 Speaker 1: segments ever from the show, like ever, because I just

8:10 Speaker 1: found it. I just found the whole thing to be

8:11 Speaker 1: so entertaining. I remember my dad getting mad at me

8:16 Speaker 1: about it because he felt like my guest had been

8:18 Speaker 1: mistreated over the course of the segment, and I'm like, well,

8:20 Speaker 1: you know, he's kind of in on the joke Dad,

8:23 Speaker 1: you know anyway, but it's it's a it's a fun segment.

8:26 Speaker 1: And by the way, the member of the pod awful cult.

8:29 Speaker 1: If you do go and listen to the whole segment.

8:31 Speaker 1: Who harasses Huiye that day has also been on this

8:35 Speaker 1: show in studio because he happens to play in a

8:38 Speaker 1: band from the area, a great band from the area.

8:41 Speaker 1: But I will not say any more than that because

8:43 Speaker 1: I do not want to well, I don't want to

8:45 Speaker 1: dox him, which wouldn't literally be doxing, but I don't

8:47 Speaker 1: want to out him as his real identity. But it's

8:50 Speaker 1: a it's a very small world, a very very small world.

8:53 Speaker 1: The Internet makes makes everything small. But yes, I was

8:57 Speaker 1: asked in that voicemail, who who the blank is Matt Connor?

9:02 Speaker 1: Who is Matt Connorton? I often ask myself that question,

9:07 Speaker 1: Who is Matt Connorton? A stare into the mirror and

9:11 Speaker 1: I this is how I start every day to kind

9:14 Speaker 1: of get myself motivated and pumped up for the day.

9:16 Speaker 1: I look in the mirror and I say, who is

9:18 Speaker 1: Matt Connorton. I say, I am him, and he is me.

9:22 Speaker 2: I don't know.

9:22 Speaker 1: I don't really do any of that. I made some

9:26 Speaker 1: of that up, and by some I really mean all
