On January 31, 2019 — a day many people were glad had arrived due to the crappy year 2019 turned out to be (if we only knew what was coming our way!) — Jon had his brand new smart phone stolen in a busy street market in Santiago, Chile. Not swiped from a table or picked from his pocket, but grabbed and wrestled from his hands. How did this happen, and why was it his fault? In Jon's words: complacency and stupidity. Listen to Episode 12 of From Sumplace New to learn how an easily avoidable situation manifested into the perfect swipe job for petty thieves. Seriously, it was a dumb-ass move by Jon. Listen and learn!
