Ep. 5 - Did He Steal My Car?

The Light Diversions Show – Episode 5: Did He Steal My Car?
6th Grade Word of the Day: Forthright
Definition: Direct and outspoken; straightforward and honest.

Nick recalls a foggy, smoke-filled night in the early 2000s: a time of pizza boxes, dial-up internet, and… possible auto theft? What starts as a late-night website building session with a buddy turns into a twisted tale of missing keys, a mysterious neighbor, and one very confused Mazda.

When the “bad apple” from down the hall casually mentions needing to "jack a car," Nick brushes it off—until his car is missing and the guy is gone. Did he steal it? Was it joyriding? Was this all just misunderstood borrowing? And why were the cops so weirdly chill about the whole thing?

Elaina Claire joins in to examine the forthrightness (or lack thereof) of everyone involved. From suspicious neighbors to lazy police reports, this episode dives deep into automotive betrayal, early-2000s logic, and that special kind of friend who lets anything slide.
