He shares harrowing tales of carjackings, near-muggings, and the constant awareness required to stay safe. These stories serve as a backdrop to his main narrative about the "Might As Well Bandit," a term he uses to describe people who, once they've crossed a certain line, continue to push boundaries, often leading to dire consequences.
He also discusses the subtler, yet equally dangerous, forms of this mentality, such as infidelity. By drawing parallels between criminal behavior and personal relationships, S. Anthony provides a thought-provoking look at how the "Might As Well" mindset can infiltrate various aspects of life.

Episode #487: "Caitlin Clark, the Fonz, and Mr. Oh No"
In this captivating episode of S. Anthony Says, S. Anthony Thomas takes us on a journey through three seemingly unrelated stories that converge into powerful life lessons. Titled "Caitlin Clark, the Fonz, and Mr. Oh No," this episode explores themes of rising tides, jealousy, and the importance of saving face.
S. Anthony begins with a surprising encounter at a store where he overhears hardcore basketball fans extolling the virtues of Caitlin Clark, a rising star in women's basketball. This leads him to reflect on how certain individuals can elevate an entire field, much like how the Fonz character did for the TV show "Happy Days." He draws parallels between Caitlin Clark's impact on women's basketball and Henry Winkler's iconic role as the Fonz, emphasizing how a single person's success can benefit everyone involved.
The episode then transitions to a personal anecdote from S. Anthony's early comedy days. He recounts how a local radio personality, despite not being a seasoned comedian, brought in massive audiences to their comedy shows. While initially met with jealousy, the comics eventually realized that the radio personality's popularity was lifting all their careers, much like how Caitlin Clark is raising the profile of women's basketball.
The final segment, "Mister Oh No," is a poignant story about a man S. Anthony once knew who fell on hard times. This tale serves as a reminder of the importance of empathy and allowing others to save face in difficult situations. S. Anthony reflects on the times he encountered Mister Oh No, each meeting more disheartening than the last, and wishes for a better future for him.
Join S. Anthony as he weaves together these narratives, offering wisdom on rising tides, the pitfalls of jealousy, and the human need for dignity. This episode is a blend of humor, heartfelt stories, and valuable life lessons that will leave you thinking long after it's over.

In this eye-opening episode of S. Anthony Says, S. Anthony Thomas brings to light the often overlooked dangers of everyday decisions. He shares gripping stories that highlight the importance of being aware of our surroundings and the potential consequences of our actions. S. Anthony recounts an incident involving a friend's son who narrowly avoided a dangerous situation while returning a misdelivered package late at night. His narrative serves as a stark reminder of how easy it is to become so fixated on an outcome that we ignore the risks involved.
S. Anthony doesn't just stop at cautionary tales from the neighborhood; he also gets personal, revealing a time when his own judgment was clouded by exhaustion and the allure of a romantic rendezvous. He candidly discusses the perilous mistake he made by driving to his girlfriend's place while overly tired, a decision that led him to the wrong door and nearly catastrophic results. Through his stories, S. Anthony emphasizes the significance of listening to those with more experience, paying attention to our instincts, and not getting so locked in on our desires that we make unsafe choices. This episode is a powerful testament to the idea that sometimes, the best decision is to take a step back and fully assess the situation.
Whether it's the streets at night or the decisions we make in our personal lives, S. Anthony's message is clear: safety and awareness should always be our top priorities. Tune in for an episode that's as thought-provoking as it is cautionary, and remember that the next time you're about to make a decision, it's worth taking a moment to consider the dangers out there.

This episode is a must-hear for anyone looking to navigate life with a strong support system.
