Squizzy and Shifty

Non-PRO English Other General / Conversation / Greetings / Letters Squizzy and Shifty
He's pulling in slowly into Tempe Driving Range. Squizzy and Shifty, do you copy that?

It is taken from East West 101 S03E02. It was saying from police officer to his two colleagues through police radio, where they were in a suspect office.

Thanks in advance,

Squizzy and Shifty

I'm not at all familiar with 'East West 101', but it seems reasonable to assume that Squizzy and Shifty are aliases used by two of the characters to protect their identities in the event that their radio messages are being over-heard.

agree Daryo : Possible, but far more likely to be simply their nicknames, given to them by other members of the team.
