WEAR A HELMET

And find someone who knows how to fix a bike. Chains should not just fall off. Ever.

We all choose to live in NYC, even though statements like "I was robbed by people who pretended to be helping me after a bike crash" exist shows the true power of the bright lights and 24 hour delis.

Now MIA is stuck in my head.

I'm not sure I know what "methy" looks like outside of posters and tv characters.

Glad you're fine.

In undergrad students got free bikes from an alumni donor. They were cruisers and the chains popped off them things like it was going out of style. About two months after the donation our campus was like a bike graveyard. Abandoned bikes and bike pieces everywhere. Folks said it was because our campus was too hilly for the cruisers to handle but idk. They were fun while they lasted.

Chemda diverted the question when directly asked by Keith. WILL CHEMDA START WEARING A HELMIT?!

Keith can you put one on the katg amazon wish list?

Also, im going to suggest that we have a best returning guest category on this years KAtG awards.

You should book Deuce and his wife and Matthew Bray to round out the nomination to give Tracey some competition (even though I know she will win by a landslide. So far we have Spooky and Mike Lawrence. So many to choose from actually!

Oh my gosh. I hope you got extra hugs from friends. The whole episode sounded traumatic and awful. What a seriously bad day.

It's may not be necessary, but your bank may end up requiring a police report to refund the credit card fraud. I have not had any use for cops in my life either.

The only way I can figure that the chain coming off the bike caused a lack of control is if you have a fixie with pedal brakes. That chain should never come off, and I would be quite furious with the bike shop. They seriously fucked up.

Your face is not noticeably different in the Youtube video; still pretty. So at least you have that going for you. The show-notes pictures are soul crushing, just from seeing how bad your day was.

I'm really sorry this happened, and I'm so glad you're mostly ok. Much love and hugs.

$250 at a dollar store is impressive. Someone once stole my credit card number and spent $20,000 at a rental car place. I was a mix of horrified and impressed. Thank goodness the bank covered the 20k...

Sorry for such a horrific day!

Years back, I’ve ridden my bicycle countless hundreds of miles in Queens. A bike chain falling off is highly improbable. Just as unlikely is having your phone stolen by people looking to help. Then using your credit card. Or smashing a face without health insurance. Keep on biking it’s still a win-win.

Personally, I don’t trust the NYPD (that's just me). I know firsthand it was the HS idiots that couldn’t find a job that became police officers. Or the kids that stole during their summer employment. This was my experience.

Thanks for the great episode with the funny /talented Tracey Carnazzo. How can it not be a great episode with a fellow Paisano from our hometown Queens?

[Pintman]

Glad you're not seriously hurt. I had a chain snap on me once and went flying ass over tea kettle. It happens real fast.

Don't buy your helmet from the jagoffs who fixed your chain.

Glad Chemda's ok (and was compensated with AirPods!) - one possibility re the dollar store purchase is that they bought a gift card - can then buy from amazon or wherever without worrying about getting caught or the credit card being cancelled.

You poor thing! Stealing from people is so shitty, but when they've been in an accident too?! Seriously fucked up. I'm glad you're ok, on the whole. Make sure you keep an eye on your knee graze. Keep it clean and give it air.

Also... I know Keith is all happy and coupled up now but I miss his and Tracey's fake relationship 😂
