Hello, friends. It's me, Duncan. This is a solo episode. I don't know if you notice. I'm doing one solo episode a week. And a guest a week. I love doing the solo episodes. I hope they don't annoy you. I hope they don't make me seem like a jabbering, yappy, narcissistic loon. But it's just fun. It helps me work out ideas and also it gives me a chance to share with you some of the cool things that I have found during my doom scrolling on the world wide web. And I'm assuming most of my beloved listeners watchers are into UFOs. But maybe some of you aren't. Maybe some of you just don't have time. And I'm there for you. I'm there for you. While you are busy with your life, your real estate empire, your incredible medical practice, you'll find me online. Burrowing deep, going into the sludge, the swamp. I'll go anywhere. I'm not afraid. I'll go anywhere. I go into the dark bowers of the Internet to bring you back scraps. So here's a clip I found on Reddit. No, really, this is wild friends. There has been a significant uptick in UAP sightings over the last few weeks. It's fascinating. Now, the problem is any kind of uptick or any kind of report of an uptick. Is it really an uptick? Is it. Who knows? Sometimes the up. The idea of an uptick creates the uptick. In other words, like some videos that maybe people have been sitting on show up. People are more inclined to fake videos. Who knows? But having watched a great deal of UAP clips because they're fucking cool no matter what they are, it's kind of a puzzle. It's fun to look at it and see if this is a hoax or if it's real or if it's just somebody who got too excited because I don't know, they. There's literally UAP videos of the moon where people think it's a ufo, which is kind of sad. Or the sun setting. I've seen that. And there's also something that happens. Actually, you know what? Josh, can you pull up this one? UAPS over dc this is one that happened recently. And this one has been pretty severely debunked. Not that that stops people from believing it. In fact, sometimes the debunking can lend more credence to it. But this was one of many. I guess we should stop. Start here. There you go. Mysterious lights over Capitol Hill. Cause UFO panic in dc. It is already happening. What the are. No, don't play. Yeah, go ahead. Let's see what Waters has to say about this. Maybe don't play Waters. I'm sure that'll get some kind of copyright violation if aliens are looking for signs. Let's see. There we go. That. So that that showed up and people thought that those were UFOs, but I think NASA debunked it. Not that that makes anyone believe it's not real. If you look down, you'll notice. Oh, no, I'm sorry. Just keep the picture up. If you guys see that picture now if you look down, look at those four lights down at the bottom. They match the four lights up top. So this is an effect of a camera. It's probably not actually UAPs, though. This wouldn't be the first time that swarms of UFOs appeared in DC. Can you Google UFO Swarm DC sometime? I think it was like after World War II. Yeah, there you go. 1952, Washington D.C. let's see. Don't forget to donate to Wikipedia, gang. From July 12th to 29th, a series of unidentified flying object flying objects were reported in D.C. and later became known as the Washington Flap. The Washington National Airport sightings are the invasion of Washington. The 1952 UFO flap was an unprecedented rash of media attention to unidentified flying objects reported during the summer of 1952 that culminated with reports of sightings over Washington D.C. in the four years prior, the U.S. air Force had chronicled a total of 615 UFO reports. Let's scroll down a little bit. On May 12, an explosion in Seattle led to public speculation of a flying saucer. And on April 3, the Associated Press reported on an upcoming story in Life magazines that would reveal the Air Force was taking a serious interest in flying saucers. Now pull up. Drones over military bases. This has also been happening. Spate of drone sighting over US Allies military bases sparks mystery. So this is another thing that's been happening is these, I don't know, drone swarms. Now scroll down. Do we have pictures of these drones? Because that's the thing you don't see, which is really curious to me. You hear about it, but they don't show it to you. Like you would think if it was run of the mill drones, there wouldn't be a problem of showing a picture of one of them. But it's when they don't show them that it makes you scratch your chin. What? What kind of drones? What are these motherfuckers? Now if you don't mind, Pull up orb. Brazilian. Brazilian orb. Airport. This one's really weird. Maybe. Airport. Airport. Orb. That should pull it up. Josh, there's a picture of this blue orb thing at an airport. Now, it could have been a weather balloon. That's what they always say. Didn't look like a weather balloon to me. It looked weird. Point is, there's an uptake in UFO sightings, and now I'm going to show you one that's really cool. Can you show that? The one? Let's see. I think. No, that one. Look at this one, y'all. Check this shit out. Bright light. They're absorbing around it. I know. Allah. Hear that, kid? Bro, I'm telling you that there was a ton of lights right now lit up. It's just hovering. There's no way, bro. And you see him blinking out, but that's just the clouds covering them up. I'm not scared about that. Crazy, though.
Josh
It's just there, bro.
Duncan
What is it, Daddy? It's getting brighter. Like, what is that?
Zade
I don't see it, though.
Duncan
You guys don't see what I see on my camera because it's so zoomed. Bro, you still on the phone? Oh, they came back. Look at. Bro, they're coming back. The lights are coming back. See, I think he thinks that the lights are coming back, but it's just cloud cover. But, you know. Go. Go zoom back in on that, Josh. Oh, wait. That's the video, but you'll notice it. Like, look at that. There's another one now. What the is that? What the. Oh, it's okay. It's gone. No, it's still there.
Zade
It's still there.
Duncan
It's hiding in the clouds. I'm zooming in.
Zade
That's what my brother said.
Duncan
In the clouds? Yes. I'm zooming in, babe. I can see the saucers in my zoom. You can see it, Zade. Huh? That's so crazy. Cute kid, bro. This is the new normal for kids, I guess. Over here in the. In the trees. What the. Bro.
Zade
What the.
Duncan
Yeah. What is that, Baby? Don't move. I'm outside the truck. Don't move. There's a ton, a ton, a ton of aliens wanted to see moana, too. Not UAPs. How you going to take your kid to a movie? You see the beginning of an alien invasion? Okay, that's cool. You stop it.
Zade
The dad. Oh, bro.
Duncan
Oh, my God.
Josh
Bro.
Duncan
Bro. What the.
Zade
Bro, the kid's more composed than he is.
Duncan
Dads, you gotta. You gotta keep it real, man. You gotta go Bruce Willis. When you see UFOs. You can't. Your pants, your kids are there. You gotta act like you're gonna fight them. Oh, no. Oh, no. And then see. Do a Google search of military helicopter, Seattle orb. This one's really interesting, but it's kind of hard to see it. But it's definitely there. Yeah. That one. This top one? Yeah. It's kind of tough to see it, but there's a weird orbit under the helicopter is under it. I mean, it's already weird. You got a military helicopter circling, like, there it is. See that? No, you got. You have to find videos of people who zoomed in on it. Wait, that might have been a bird. Hang on.
Zade
That was the bird right there.
Duncan
Yeah. No, there's an orb that shows up. It's hard to find, to see. I don't want to. I don't want to dig through to find a video where someone analyzed it. But, dude, the black helicopters keep going over here, too. There's that goddamn happy fucking. There you go. There you go. Look. See that right here? Yeah.
Zade
Oh, that thing.
Duncan
Yeah. Yeah. Pretty weird, huh? So these have been happening all over the place, and it is somebody who, like, mildly follows UAP stuff. This is most certainly an upsurge. It's an uptake in UFO activity. The wife thinks that it's related to, like, Russia, that this is just, like, testing for the possibility if, like, a nuclear war broke out. Those little guys are going to like, it's maybe a missile defense system. A lot of people are saying, what's the deal with December. December 4th. Tomorrow.
Zade
Tomorrow. So Tuesday this week we're supposed to have. Not an invasion, but basically all these UFOs supposed to pop up and then our jets are going to start fighting them. And that was in 2004. Some web bot that.
Duncan
Yes.
Zade
Yeah. And it said 33 days after Trump goes on JRE, that's when it'll happen. That's what it predicted back in 2004. So now people are freaking out that tomorrow we're going to have a UFO invasion. And by people freaking out, I mean, like 100 people on Twitter.
Duncan
I mean. Yeah, but, like, what is this web bot? Like, this is interesting. I love this.
Zade
It predicted some tsunami, a big tsunami. That was.
Duncan
I heard about this. Maybe. Can you find the web bot? Let's find it. Let's see if we can find the source of this. But, yeah, right now there's a lot of, like, in the, in, in. In the fringe world, there's a lot of people who are titillated, you know, not, not like at level 10 titillation, but I'd say like an 8. There's an 8 level frenzy happening. And why not? There's a lot of crazy shit happening in the world. No, that's old Nostradamus.
Zade
Oh, I got some.
Duncan
Will the web bots alien war prediction come true?
Zade
Click on that one.
Duncan
Sure. Is the clock ticking toward an unprecedented event in human history? Today we delve into a fascinating prediction from Cliffhigh's web bot project, a system that analyzes online chatter to foresee the future. Weird. It's claimed that 39 days after Donald Trump appears on Joe Rogan's podcast, we could see a war with alien. Where is the proof that this actually happened? That predicted date December 3rd is only three days away. Let's explore the history of its method and whether we're truly on the brink of something extraordinary. The Whitebot was developed by Cliff High, a software engineer. Okay, stop it there. Look up web bot Cliff. What's his name? Cliff High. The web bot was developed by Cliff High. Yeah. Cliff High. I'm going to build a web bot, rocks. Okay, there we go. Boom. All right. Web Bot is an Internet bot computer program whose developers claimed it was able to predict future events. It was developed in 1997. The creator of the web bot project, Cliff High, along with associate George Ura, kept the technology algorithm secret. Okay. Whereas it claimed hits, northeast blackout of 2003, 2004 Ocean earthquake, and Hurricane Katrina. Okay, well, let's look. This is where it also predicted a cataclysm that would devastate the planet on the 21st of December. Massive earthquakes in Vancouver, the US dollar collapse in 2011, Israel, Obama, Iran. Yeah, it doesn't even show the JREC. I wonder with that one. It feels a little too specific.
Zade
Like, JRE wasn't even around at the time.
Duncan
Yeah, that sounds like somebody. That's a troll. I'm going to say troll on that one like that. It's. You know, I used to do this, like when there was an earthquake in. In la. I would immediately after the earthquake tweet, an earthquake will happen today. And then people wouldn't pay attention to the timestamp and they'd be like, how did you know.
Zade
I want to play this one?
Duncan
Yeah, I guess so. Yeah. Let's see. I mean, it's when you see that. All right.
Josh
At the moment. Okay, so you gone deep complicated.
Duncan
When you get the whiteboard up, you got. Indeed.
Josh
Kind of cool. Sort of interesting, especially for us guys involved in it. There's a video out there. With Dick Allgire interviewing me. Oh, that video is from some time back. I think it was like 2019 or 2020. Who is this?
Zade
I think this is the guy Cliff High predicted. Is this Cliff High?
Duncan
Cliff High. So this is Cliff High. Holy shit.
Zade
Make sure that's him.
Duncan
That's Cliff High.
Zade
Yeah.
Duncan
Oh, shit.
Josh
That we did that. But to be honest, I haven't been thinking about times that way, so I'm not really sure when it was done. Okay, but here's the thing. Here's the progression of events in the. About the period of time that we had the 2008 crash, financial crash. We started getting in all kinds of new technology stuff in the data. This was also along in that period of time where we knew there was new money coming, but we didn't know what was going to be called bitcoin or cryptos or whatever. We just knew it was going to emerge, which it did, and so on. Within those same sets were other forms of technology that were being referenced. One of these other forms of technology that was being referenced is what we now call podcasts.
Duncan
Nice.
Josh
A person to potentially hundreds of millions. Direct feed with no broadcast corporation in between. Right. There is in the sense of YouTube or Spotify or that kind of stuff. So the corporations are trying to control it. Right. Any organization will be infiltrated by the Elohim worship cult and use their.
Duncan
Stop it there. What?
Josh
So anyway, so geez, Cliffhanger.
Duncan
I throw that out there for a normie. The Elohim worship cult.
Zade
Never heard of it.
Duncan
Elohim worship cult. Wait, what? Google Elohim worship cult. El. It's an Elohim.
Zade
Oh.
Duncan
There it is. Isn't it that. Wait, is that Cliff Hyde's way of saying Jews?
Zade
Oh, I have no idea. It wouldn't surprise me.
Duncan
Yeah, I'm pretty sure that was. I'm not positive. Just Google Elohim. Wikipedia. Cliff, I. Cliff. Heil Hitler more like it. What the. Cliff, you know, the problem is the moment it goes in that direction, I just stopped listening.
Zade
Yeah, name of God used frequently in. In the Hebrew Bible.
Duncan
Maybe he didn't. I mean, I don't know. Come on. Cliff High. Really? Don't you like, now you're just kind of like, yeah, I don't want to hear anymore. Okay, keep playing it. Let's see what he's got to say. Maybe he didn't mean that. I don't know.
Josh
Stuff that we didn't know was going to be called a podcast. The term was out there. I think at the time that it first started showing up in the data, but it was as a descriptor that we were seeing it. So it wasn't. Wasn't linked to the term podcast. It had yet to cement to that.
Duncan
All right, forget it. I can't do. I can't. I can't do it.
Josh
Or when this occurred.
Duncan
Just stop it. I can't do it.
Zade
We'll find out if he's right tomorrow.
Duncan

You know what it could be. It's kind of like. I don't think he's. You know, I don't think he necessarily. I think he's also encompassing maybe like. Like all Middle Eastern religions. Right? Like, I think Graham Hancock sort of talks about. Maybe not Graham. I think it's Graham Hancock talks about, you know, this. The God of the Old Testament. Elohim is like, not a great God, clearly.
Zade
Wrath. Wrathful.
Duncan
Wrathful, yeah. So I don't think maybe. I don't think. I think Cliff High. I don't think he was being like. I think he was just sort of like trying to do some kind of weird, like, infowars style critique of worship of, like, the wrathful God that originated in the Middle east, that. But he did also say that they control them. Yeah. I don't know.
Zade
Well, from what I'm reading here, the way they're making it seem Elohim Cult is that you Believe in several gods.
Duncan
Okay.
Zade
I mean, paganism.
Duncan
Look, we don't get. We don't have to get lost in the weeds here with whatever Cliff High's thing is with his magic robot machine that said the world was going to end in 2012. But you know what? Tomorrow, if aliens invade. And I will say I will do an apology on that following episode. Cliff High. I'm not that I said anything wrong. I'm just trying to dissect what he said. I mean, that's pretty much. I mean, it is the. They control the media pretty much. Right? I mean, it's not that far away because it's like you will let me throw in some things you don't hear much ever. For example, you never hear Quakers control the media. I've never heard that. I've never heard Mormons control the media. So when, you know, when you mix that in, which is, you know, absolutely idiotic, and it feels like that's a maybe, like that's his way of. Was that on YouTube, that clip?
Zade
Yeah, that was on YouTube.
Duncan
So maybe is that his way of like skipping the algorithm or something by saying Elohim, death cult or worship cult?
Zade
He couldn't maybe not know just because, like, I didn't know. Reptilian. Calling somebody reptilian is also a way of being anti Semitic. I didn't know that.
Duncan
Who said that? That's not true.
Zade
A Jewish friend of mine said it's.
Duncan
Anti Semitic to call people reptilian. Yeah, that's. I'm sorry, I'm going to push back on that.
Zade
That's what I wanted to, but then I felt like. Well, I can't really say anything because you're. I guess you've heard that before and that somebody's called you that. So.
Duncan
Yeah, I mean, if you. Okay. If you're only calling one like ethnicity or cultural group reptilian. Sure. But when I make the reptilian accusation, quite often it's like US Presidents.
Zade
Yes.
Duncan
Not. I feel like I can't say it on. Yeah, I feel like I can't say it because people like. Because the algorithm will like the new. It's some kind of Alex Jones.
Zade
Yeah, that's why they went after David. Well, I mean, the other reasons they went off after David Ike so hard. But that was their. Like, see, he's anti Semite.
Duncan
That's bullshit. That's absolutely bullshit. That's ridiculous. You. They can't take that word from me because that word is like excellent on so many different levels. Like just as a metaphor.
Zade
Yeah.
Duncan
Cold blooded.
Zade
Your reptilian brain.
Duncan
Yeah, your reptile brain. We all have it. Nobody gets still. And also the like weird like reptilian glyphs you see all over the planet, you know, they're like weird like lizard people. Probably predates Judaism, you know, like it's. This shit's on megalithic sites and stuff. It's the. Look up reptilian God. What are they called? The Earth? The giant. Look up. God damn it. I can't believe I can't remember the name of this. Ah, fuck. Reptil. Oh God. Look up like ancient, ancient giant symbols in the Amazon. Yeah, look at these. 7,000 year old reptilian uber. Look at this shit in Mesopotamia. Look at that thing. Click on that thing.
Zade
Which one?
Duncan
Right there.
Zade
This one?
Duncan
Yeah. Look at that. Reptilian breastfeeding. Yeah, Reptilian feeding a. I can't tell if it's a reptile or. It looks like a reptile baby feeding a little lizard baby. You know. This is like old and everywhere. Yeah, look up India. The Naga. Yeah, check that out. You know, this is this, this sort of like sentient reptile thing shows up all over the place. Not just like book of Genesis, talking snake. And by the way, you could argue the talking snake in the Garden of Eden was a reptilian. So no, I mean, I think you could. You're allowed to say to anybody. That's not what I mean when I say reptilian Quintaquatl or something like that.
Zade
Wasn't that.
Duncan
That's the plumed serpent. Yeah, Quexaquatl. This shows up all over the place. But to get back to the weirdness at hand, we've got like this guy's like magic machine saying that there's going to be a UFO invasion. Also you have a bunch of UFO reports. And then just to add a little spice to the strange gumbo that's been floating around the Internet, pull up the David Meyer ChatGPT glitch. Now this is real weird. So, and I tested this out. David Meyer de Rothschild is a British adventure environmentalist and heir to the billion dollar Rothschild fortune. So this kid is going to inherit all of the Rothschilds dough. And he's interesting. I watched a little documentary on him and they made a boat out of plastic bottles. They made this completely like eco friendly boat. I think he sailed on the ocean on it for like three years. He is. Let's see what it says he's done. Let's just pull up his Wikipedia. Love to have this guy on the podcast. David Meyer. Wikipedia. David Meyer Rothschild Wikipedia, can you. It's like, give me a fucking break. To be the. You're like this handsome Rothschild that's about to inherit all the money in the world. Why didn't I pick that incarnation?
Zade
And he's tall.
Duncan
Yeah, no, it's. It's not. I mean, true. Like, as I'm watching the documentary, all I was thinking is, like, this is not fair. There's nothing fair about this at all. There wasn't any, like, sense of demonic person other than, like, you know what? Fuck off with your eco love. You're trying to save the planet. You're gonna inherit all the money. You're part of, like, a notorious family. It's gotta be so fun. Oh, let's just. As a teenager, Rothschild was a top ranked horse jumper. Of course, he later gave up the sport to pursue his education. Father, I'm giving up horse jumping. I realized there was more to life than spending hours and hours and hours on a horse. Okay, let's scroll down. Polar expeditions. In 2006, Rothschild spent over 100 days crossing the Arctic from Russia to Canada, which saw him become one of only 42 people and the youngest British person to ever reach both geographical poles. I mean, the dude, like, inarguably, you're. You're kind of a badass. Like, none of that sounds like it sounds exciting but not fun. Certainly that's like, crazier than horse jumping. And then scroll down to this. Developed a mission to raise awareness of the Pacific Garbage Patch, in which he invented a new form of sustainable ship at a Lab on Pier 31 in San Francisco called the Plastiki. That's his boat that he made. Solar panels, everything you might need. Adrenochrome harvester. He's so I. Anyway, let me. Let's just see if the glitch still exists. We'll ask ChatGPT. So this is what somebody discovered. Hey, can you say the name? David Meyer, please? David Meyer. Oh, they fixed it.
Zade
What did it used to do?
Duncan
I'll read the. Wait. Now let's see. How do you spell his name?
Zade
David M A Y E R. Okay. David Meyer de Rothschild.
Duncan
What does David. What does David M A Y E R spell? It spells David M A Y E R. What does it. David M A. What does David M A Y E R actually spell? It spells David Meyer. Okay. See, it. They fixed it, but I'll. Let me see if I can find the thing that happened. It recorded it on here. Yeah, it's here. So, yeah, for a second, if you went on ChatGPT and said David Meyer. It would glitch out, the whole thing would crash. It was like some kind of protection in there to keep it from saying it. And so everyone freaked out. Like, what the fuck? These people have so much power, they've got open AI, like controlling Chat GPT to not say his name for some reason. Now I'll tell you my theory here, which is like, actually even more batshit. Like who knows the reason why? But I mean, would it surprise you if some powerful family actually was controlling AI for some reason or another? But I did see another YouTube video pop up, which was some kind of expose on the elder Rothschild. And he was like saying some, he was apparently saying something really bad, sinister thing. And whatever that was, I wanted to find out. So I watched this YouTube video. It's like 45 minutes. The whole thing is a puff piece on the Rothschilds talking about all the good they do in the world, environmentalism, all the good stuff. And I think, are they doing some kind of brilliant PR campaign? Because it's like you read somewhere David Meyer Rothschild. You can't say David Meyer on ChatGPT. You look up David Meyer Rothschild. This video of this like handsome, strapping, beautiful Rothschild trying to save the world shows up. So it drives all of this attention into like, like it positivizes a family that has been maligned in so many different circles for so long. Why, why, why do people hate the Rothschild so much? Can you google that? Like, what did the Rothchilds do that was so fucking bad? Clearly something from humble beginnings in the Frankfurt ghettos of the 1760s, May Meyer Amal Rothchild's rise to patriarch of a global bankers is often overshadowed by enduring yet baseless anti Semitic accusations that paint the Rothschild family as puppeteers behind world affairs. The Rothchild name, I, I didn't somehow he didn't know they were, they were Jewish. The Rothchild name has been synonymous with both financial innovation and conspiracy theories ranging from controlling global events to creating financial crises. Despite their continued contributions to banking and philanthropy, the Rothschild heirs remain symbols of harmful Jewish stereotypes about wealth in the digital age. That, that now it all makes sense. So I know why. Then it all makes sense. ChatGPT has is like hyper careful about anything that could be offensive. And I guarantee that Rothchilds got lumped in with anti Semitism and that's why you couldn't say his name for some reason.
Zade
Wasn't around that time the Illuminati created in Germany the.
Duncan
Let's click on Rothchild family, the largest private fortune in the world. As well as in modern world history.
Zade
Okay, well, also, isn't he the one. He's like, I care or not who runs the government as long as he controls. As long as we control the money or something like that.
Duncan
Why are you so anti Semitic?
Zade
See, I'm not being.
Duncan
Just saying. What. What's wrong with you? What happened to you, man? Really? Why would you even say that?
Josh
I don't know.
Zade
He's a reptilian.
Duncan
I'm sure he never said that. I care not. There's no way he said this. Not my Meyer. He didn't say this. Come on. I care not around the government. Give me control. Oh, okay, you didn't say that. He said, give me control over a nation's currency. I care not who makes its laws.
Zade
There you go. See? So something like that. I wasn't.
Duncan
Wait, no, no. Is that a real. Oh, fuck. See? What the fuck? See, that's the thing. Okay, here's a problem. If you. If you have the greatest fortune in the world, probably the way you got that great fortune wasn't like, being nice. I mean, no matter what your ethnicity or what you're into, right? Like, if you've. If you've consumed that much stuff, it doesn't. It's. I think it's a safe bet that you've probably made some decisions that one wouldn't look at as, like, ethical decisions generally. I mean, it's not like people are like, hey, let's give Meyer Rothschilds the nicest guy. Why don't we give him all the wealth of the world, right? I'm not saying it's terrible to be rich, but to be the richest person in the world and then to say, I don't care who controls. I don't. If you control the currency, you can. You make the laws.
Zade
Yeah, I care not who makes the laws.
Duncan
And then. And because that's not coming from you or me. Like, if I say that, it's like, yeah, therefore I'm getting, like, parking tickets and shit, because I don't have all the world's currency. But if you actually have the largest fortune in the world and are saying that, you're basically saying, I make the laws. I am the secret king. But let's make sure that that is a real quote. So just copy and paste that and see what shows up, because that came from the. Behold a pale horse. A magnificent book. If you want to get super paranoid. Okay. Monetaris Anonymous. This is the Economist. Click on that. The Economist, actually, I think is partially owned by the Rothschilds.
Zade
Yeah, he said it.
Duncan
Google Economist, controlled by Roth, who owns the Economist, the Economist Group.
Zade
It's a British.
Duncan
The Cardigan family, not that, but not the Rothschild. Oh, weird. Okay, I see. So that's.
Zade
That's weird that they put that in.
Duncan
There, probably because it's just one of the many things that are, like, linked to them. But yeah, okay, so sure, they're bankers, they have all the money, and at.
Zade
The same time, 1776, that's when the Illuminati was created in Germany.
Duncan
Well, is there a connection between the Illuminati and this guy? What's the connection? Other than that year, Meet the man who started the Illuminati.
Zade
There's National Geographic.
Duncan
What the fuck timeline are we in right now? How did a Bavarian professor end up creating a group that would be at the center of two centuries of conspiracy theories? You got to sign, you got. Okay, so what. Look, here's the. I mean, here's the reality. I. And I don't think he's off. Like, if you control the money, then you obviously control the world. But let me launch into something here, Josh, okay? The Trussell Defense of the Illuminati. Not saying this because I would love to be a member. Here's my defense of the Illuminati. I don't know if the Rothschilds are a member. I don't care if the members of the Illuminati are Buddhist, Jewish, Hindu, Christian, whatever. I don't care if they're men or women. I don't care if they're all gay or straight or a mix. But I think it's safe to say that if we live in a world where what Meyer Rothschild said is true, you control the currency, you control the laws, then. And I think we probably do. I think it's pretty safe to say that if you have. I mean, it's obvious, like, you know, you don't get to be president unless you have a lot of money to run for president. You've got to have a lot of money to run for president, then you become president. That's just the way it is. You don't get elected in the United States without some kind of pile of dough. You got to get into the media, you got to signal, boost yourself to the point where people decide to vote for you. And the way you get the money is you get donations. And the do the people who donate shit tons of money to you. They're not just doing it because they like you, they're doing it because they kind of expect something in return. It's not a bribe necessarily, but it sure is a close cousin to a bribe. It's like a very close cousin to a bribe. And that's been completely normalized in our culture. So if we live in a world, which I think we do, where saying the truth historically gets you fucked up in like really serious ways. Copernicus, was it Copernicus? Can you Google who was it? Copernicanicus? Didn't he get. He said he got thrown in jail for saying the Earth was not the center of the universe. Galileo. That's who I meant. Fuck. Okay, cut the whole part, that whole last part, if you could remember. Josh, take a note there, please. If we live in a world where people where you get arrested for saying the truth, like Galileo.
Zade
Convicted of heresy.
Duncan
Yeah, he gave the character arguing against Helios interest, the name Simplicio, after a famous philosopher. And in Italian this could be construed as a simpleton though. And the Church Pope took it as him insulting the church. So basically the church was somehow opposed to Heliocentrism. And Galileo said, I'm sorry, it doesn't matter if you don't fucking like it. The truth hurts. The goddamn Earth goes around the sun. Just deal with it, asshole. And he got, he got thrown in. He got arrested. So I. You know, if you live in a world where there are any kind of superstitious cultural systems where you will be in danger for saying the truth, then to me that produces. That's the engine of the Illuminati. At some point, man, you know, if like people like Galileo and who knows who else get attacked, burn at the stake, thrown in jail, they have their businesses destroyed, their lives destroyed for legitimately just saying things that are true. Look up George Lister. I think that was his name. Lister Ignaz symbolized. A Hungarian doctor working in Vienna General Hospital is known as the father of hand hygiene. In 1846, he noticed that the women giving birth in the medical student doctor a maternity ward were much more likely to develop a fever and die compared to the women giving birth in the adjacent midwife run maternity wards. He decided to investigate. Basically, he developed a theory that those performing autopsies got cadaverous particles in their hands which then they carried from the autopsy room into the maternity ward. So there you go. Because the midwives weren't doing autopsies, the nasty ass doctors were. So this is how it worked back then. You would have. You'd be up to your wrists in like a rotting corpse. And then somebody like doctor delivery in room three. And you go in there. And your hands would just be covered in corpse shit. You wouldn't wash them. And you deliver a baby and of course the mother would get sick and die. This guy realized, I've got an idea. Let's start washing our hands. And he was completely lambasted for this pov. Doctors were like, I'm not washing my hands. I'm a doctor. A gentleman does not wash his hands. That was a saying back then. So this is how we know people's hands smelled awful back then. They didn't know, you should wash hands, because if you're not washing your hands after you do an autopsy, you're definitely not washing your hands after you wipe your ass. So every. If you wipe your ass, you don't wipe your ass. You just. And pull up your nasty, soaked doctor pants. And this is what it was. So you two great examples of people who are rejected for saying some pretty basic bitch things to the world. And at some point, if, like, we start kicking normal people out of society because they say things that are antithetical to the mainstream, eventually they're just going to, like, start their own group. You know, they're going to be like, look, I'm sorry, but I. I'm tired of trying to explain these things to idiots. Not because I don't have patience, but because when I do, they will arrest me, they will fire me. I don't want to put myself in danger anymore. And this is sort of like the drive to make the world better goes underground. Because the way it's supposed to work is you say something that's true and everything gets better because people are like, oh, my God, why didn't we think of washing our hands? You know, so weird I didn't think of that. I remember pulling a baby out the other day and man, there was just like a nice gap of scrap of greenest tissue on my fingers. And it got in the baby's mouth and the baby ate it. And I was thinking, I wonder how I could keep that from happening. And then, yeah, wash our hands. That's a good idea. Everybody thinks better babies don't die, Mommies don't die. So this is my defense of the Illuminati. Every. Everybody thinks that the Illuminati is evil. Maybe the Illuminati is a byproduct of gen pop having a negative relationship with truth that, you know, general population doesn't want to hear the truth. They don't like it. And they. The way gen pop generally works is they don't say, no, fuck you, they didn't go after you. They call you a maniac, a lunatic, a psychopath, whatever, they ruin you. So smart people evolve. Like that's the basic idea. And by smart I just mean curious people, people who like to investigate and interrogate the universe. They're smart enough at some point to realize like, we have to stop doing this. And then also probably going along with that is an idea of like, and we have to stop other people from running full charge into the idiots because if they do that, they get their asses kicked over and over and over again. So we have to find a way to find those people and say stop, they'll kill your ass. And that's my defense of the Illuminati. Theoretically, if intelligent people end up broke, unemployed, crazy, rejected by the world for exploring the truth, eventually they're going to catch on that that's just not, that's not how you do it anymore. And then what do you do? You form some secret society where you can tell these truths to each other and have normal debates over it. And then once you really do figure something out, you leak it into the world. You like, find a way to slow drip it into the world in a decentralized way. Such as Bitcoin, right? Yeah, there you go. If you want to talk about something. If I had to chalk it up to any group, I would say that's the Illuminati. That's the fucking Illuminati. They've come up with some like ninja name for the creator of it. No one knows who it is.
Zade
Control the currency.
Duncan
Control the currency. But Bitcoin, isn't that the opposite of controlling the currency? Wouldn't you say? That's not, that's actually like letting like the. That would be a pushback to controlling the currency.
Zade
It's decentralized. They call it the Trojan horse because big corporations like BlackRock are adopting it with the thoughts that if they own enough to be able to control it and that that's not how it's going to work, that they're going to end up not being able to continue these derivatives and just print money like crazy.
Duncan
Right?
Zade
And so it's going to make them have a. It's not number go up forever, right. Making us poor.
Duncan
Right. So yeah, well, yeah, it's like a populist currency basically. Right. Like is an idiot who knows little about crypto other than it's just sort of like the moment you have some un. Trackable, untraceable.
Zade
It is trackable, untraceable.
Duncan
Oh, it is.
Zade
If you Use Bitcoin to purchase something illegal, they will find you because they know they can find you through your address.
Duncan
But aren't there ways to get like anonymous Bitcoin wallets? Like, surely there are. I mean, how does the, out of all the like, drug markets of the dark web function if not for that?
Zade
The only way that I've heard you can do it is if you mine it yourself. And then you're able. Because once you, you purchase it from any crypto service, they have you, they know your bank account, they know all of that.
Duncan
Oh, I see. Like if you're using Coinbase or whatever, definitely on the grid.
Zade
Oh, they got you.
Duncan
Regardless, it's things like that, like stuff that just sort of pops out into the world and no one knows exactly where it came from. To me, that's the way it would work. Like, it's, you know, because you, you've got to realize, like looking throughout history, that when people are met with a really big idea, they don't just accept it, that you have to kind of spoon feed it, you know, to them. And then this is what, this is one of the critiques of secret societies, the Illuminati, the elite, is it's like, we're not idiots. Don't, we're not idiots. You don't need to spoon feed it to us. It's like, you're probably not an idiot, but there's enough idiots out there that we have to find another way to get this information out into the world that, where people think they thought of it themselves, get it in a popular culture. And that's, you know, there's a, there's so many arguments against that.
Zade
Well, large groups of people are idiots, you know.
Duncan
You mean like the mob?
Zade
The mob. You get mob mentality. It's, you're, you're thinking together as a hive, you're not thinking as individuals.
Duncan
Right? Yeah, right. And if the goal is like the sort of reduction of suffering on planet Earth, I don't think that's a sinister goal. I think that's a great goal. And if that's your goal then, and you really believe in it, then the way you go about doing that should be the most effective way and the way to sort of begin that analysis of, okay, if we want to reduce human suffering on the planet en masse, how do we do that? Well, then you have to identify the causes of suffering. What are they?
Zade
Humans. You get rid of them and now no suffering.
Duncan
Let me get to my plan. What the fuck? Listen, to quote Jim Jones, it's Not death. It's just stepping over to the other side. And there's a lot more room on the other side. That's all. A real simple thing, just a little shift. You won't even know what happened. You'll just be like, oh, my God, that's death. No big deal. Wow, this new place is beautiful. All that will be left on the Earth are just the caretakers of the Earth, the Rothschilds and their friends.
Zade
What's the golden rule?
Duncan
Do unto others as you would have them do unto you.
Zade
That's our golden rule. Their golden rule is he who makes the gold makes the rules.
Duncan
I thought it was don't eat the yellow. Don't eat the golden snow. Mayuracha. You know, look, this episode of the DTFH has been supported by BetterHelp. You know what? I'm going to admit it. I used to despise the holidays. I really did. The holidays were my time at drinking. I'd hole up in my stinky apartment, wrap myself in a blanket and just get blasted and wait for the whole damn thing to end. Didn't like it. Triggered a lot of weird shit inside of me. I would become morose, depressed, unhappy. And at the time, I wish that BetterHelp existed. It didn't. So I did. What I think a lot of us do during the holidays is we go Boo Radley, baby. And if you do end up outside, God help you. You end up at a target. God help you if you're one of us. A target during the holidays. Oh, terrible. Terrible. It's terrible. Now, as someone who actually likes the holidays, but Jesus, God in heaven, going to any store during the holidays, nothing will make you feel more alone. Nothing will make you feel like you truly are in some kind of nightmare. Hellscape filled with consumerist buffoons sucked in by the siren song of Christmas. Again, I speak as someone who was a Grinch for many years, and I cannot emphasize enough how much therapy helped. I can listen to Christmas music now without wanting to pick up Nietzsche. I can listen to Christmas music now, no joke. Those of you out there, maybe not all of you are like this, but I'm talking to. I'm talking to you. I know you're thinking, there's no way. There's no way I'm going to be able to hear Christmas music without feeling like Lucifer himself punched me in the solar plexus. But I'm telling you, it's possible. Therapy truly works. I love meditation. I love a lot of things. But one of the things that has really transformed my Life is therapy. And I hope that if you are thinking about trying therapy, you will give BetterHelp a try. It's entirely online, designed to be convenient, flexible and suited to your schedule. Just fill out a brief questionnaire to get matched with a licensed therapist and switch therapists anytime for no additional charge. Find comfort this December with BetterHelp.

Josh
Help.
Duncan
H E L P.comduncan thank you, BetterHelp. I don't. This is where I'm gonna get accused of being a fucking shill or a sheeple. This is where everyone's like, you're in the CIA or bullshit like that. I don't believe that. I do think there's sinister forces at work in the world. I have no doubt. Like, and also, wherever there's a thing, it's gotta have its opposite. This is always my argument of the Illuminati. Okay, let's say there is the Illuminati. I'm talking about a dark cabal of sociopathic earth hating control freaks who do think people are dumb, but. And, and are like sheep and are a herd animal that has to be culled from time to time to keep stability, to keep things going the way they want them to go in the world. If that's true, then the opposite must also be true. Then the opposite exists too. Another invisible hand, another counter force that also recognizes, oh yeah, you got to decentralize. You got to be underground there. We can have no leader. We can have no normal system of transmitting information. We. This whole like cult leader thing or guru thing or king thing or leader of the rebels. Fuck that. No more. What happens if we just, number one, accept, oh shit, this does exist, which I think it does. There's no initiation. There's no going to some dark castle in Bavaria and getting fisted by a fucking reptilian. There's just the acceptance that exists and then, and then just the general like, all right, I think I'm a member of that group. And the moment you do that, you. You become part of it. And that's when you start getting all these weird synchronicities in your life and people will tell you stuff that you didn't expect over your conversations. This, I've talked about it before. It's called pronoia. It's the opposite of paranoia. It's the idea the universe is conspiring for you, not against you. And the moment you join whatever this, you would. You can even invent your own name. For it, because you don't even want a name. That's even better. Where the Illuminati are fucked is they have a name. This thing, nameless, there is no name for it. It's so secret and invisible. It doesn't have a name, doesn't have a leader, but it is a network and it's completely spontaneous. And so that what that does is it makes it impossible to defeat. Now you could argue then, how do you organize. How would you organize actions to push back? You don't. That's the most beautiful thing about it. You just have to trust that spontaneously things emerge in your mind. There's a moment where you'll be called to action and you'll just know the right thing to do or the right thing to say. And that's it. Sounds absolutely nuts, but so does the Illuminati.
Zade
Sounds like Christ Consciousness.
Duncan
That's one of the names for it. Yeah, that's one of the names for it. They call it Christ Consciousness, Enlightenment, Gnosis. There's all kinds of names for it. But that's, if you ask me, that's real. That definitely exists. And for sure, when I look out at the world, at least the one I see in my own limited view, you definitely see a kind of wrestling match between two antithetical forces happening. You definitely see like this like endless back and forth between the humanist and like the emperor. And I imagine that anytime you have a top down hierarchical system where there's a head of a serpent, it's fucked. It's naturally fucked. It can't. Like it's. What do they say? Like, what would you rather fight like a bear or a thousand horses? You know, a thousand tiny horses. You never heard that?
Zade
A thousand ponies?
Duncan
A thousand. Yeah. Or even tiny, like the size of Chihuahuas.
Zade
Oh, I'd fuck up a thousand tiny horses. Horses.
Duncan
I don't know about that. Like how. Google how much a Chihuahua weighs? Like we're. For the sake of this. You know that right away. How much does a Chihuahua weigh?
Zade
Yeah.
Duncan
Okay, so let's average it out. Five pounds. Okay, so that's a 5,000 pound Chihuahua swarm. Let's just forget the horses. Five. How many did I say? Yeah. A thousand chihuahuas. A thousand. Five pounders. How much does a bear weigh?
Zade
Oh, no. 600 pounds.
Duncan
There you go. Bear weighs 600 pounds. It can't break itself up into little individual bits. A swarm of fucking Chihuahuas, dude. How do you run from them?
Zade
You don't. You smash them. You step on them.
Duncan
Okay, but you're Going to get the first wave of Chihuahuas. I bet you get the first 10, 20, maybe 100 Chihuahuas you smash. But they're jumping in your face, they're clawing your eyes, they're climbing on your back, they're getting into your shirt. Dude, you fight the bear. Trust me. Not the Chihuahuas. A thousand fucking five pound Chihuahuas versus one six hundred pound bear. Both suck, but the bear is centralized. The Chihuahuas are decentralized. Chihuahuas are fast. They burrow, though. They run so fast they would dart off, come back, you're fucked.
Zade
I still feel like I'd kill a thousand Chihuahuas.
Duncan
I don't think you could.
Zade
Maybe not cats, but Chihuahuas, they'll jump as high as my knee. A bear's. It's messing me up. There's nothing I can do against a bear. I can't run away from the bear, you know, it's gonna eat my guts while.
Duncan
How much is the Piranha way?
Zade
Piranhas are different though.
Duncan
Why?
Zade
Because they have sharp teeth.
Duncan
So do. Have you ever been snipped at by a Chihuahua? Yeah, they can puncture the skin. They will. A Chihuahua will fuck you up. Not like on your hand, like you have to get a band aid, but like, you know what I mean? A very angry Chihuahua can puncture the skin with his jagged rotting teeth. A thousand Chihuahuas, Are you kidding me, man? First of all, just weight wise. Yeah, that is. What is that? That's like almost 10 bears. That's almost 10 bears.
Zade
Do I get a weapon? No, just, just my hands.
Duncan
You get your stomping feet, you can run. You know, like retreat is an option. You can play. Try to play dead with angry Chihuahuas. They'll still you up. They eat you. You be bones. You.
Zade
You run, they chase you. They get tired. Once they get tired, that's when you start taking.
Duncan
Oh yeah, they're gonna get tired. You ever seen them run? Yeah, they're like little lightning bolts. They're fast. They're not gonna get tired. No, you can't outrun a Chihuahua. No, no, no. I'm telling you, man, it's all about decentralization. The Illuminati is the bear. This other group is the Chihuahua. Yeah, sure, one Chihuahua you could fuck up. Yeah, ten Chihuahuas you could fuck up. But like a thousand Chihuahuas, they're going to overcome you. They're going to overcome you. They're going to. It's going to be a horrible death.
Zade
Well, let me ask you this. Could a toddler beat one Chihuahua?
Duncan
Yeah. Easy.
Zade
Okay. I could beat a thousand toddlers.
Duncan
Oh yeah, no problem. Toddler's easy.
Zade
Yeah. If so if I. If the toddler can be the chihuahua and I could beat a thousand.
Duncan
It's bad math. Okay? That's bad, man. You can't use toddler fighting skills to determine whether or not you could defeat a horde of Chihuahuas. Yeah. I mean, that's going to get you killed if it happens. If the thing they're predicting happens because we don't know what's flying. These fucking UAPs could be Chihuahuas. And the main thing is the. Any time. This is my final defense of the Illuminati. Anytime you run in to anything that's got hierarchy where there's the head of the serpent, I don't care what it is. Anytime there's a top down system where there's tiers of power, the closer you get to the top, it's probably something warped about that. There's probably something fucked up in the system of initiation to get up the power tree. And also that is a very effective way of controlling things. You can organize, you can have people do your bidding. There's a kind of ability to disconnect from the consequences of what you do. I was just following orders. It's a wonderful formation of control hierarchy. But chaos, Chaos is its mortal enemy because that hierarchical systems are very good at fighting other hierarchical systems. A hierarchical system, that's war. You just like your army beats the other army, your coalition of hierarchies beats the other hierarchy. It's a war of hierarchies. But it's the like the earliest version of it was like guerrilla warfare versus the way they used to march in lines with a little drummer and someone playing a flute with their flag holder. Idiots. And then people are like, why the fuck are we fighting? Why are we going to get line to hide? Use subversive methods? Pit traps, baby. And then you know, that's the Mongol horde. That's why they were able to like just lay waste to so many cities that were like using like standard warfare techniques.
Zade
What about order through chaos? Isn't that there like mantra?
Duncan
Yeah. They want to defeat chaos.
Zade
Okay.
Duncan
They want to control everything. They want a chaos free world. And if there is chaos, they want to know it's coming. They want to be able to moderate. And if they can't control the chaos, they definitely want to tell a story about the chaos that makes it seem like it wasn't chaos after all. They just can't abide chaos because it's the. It's it's oil to their water. It doesn't work. So if I was, you know, they say like I love the. What would we expect to see if there was intelligent life out there? They have all like kinds of things you could look for in the stars with our new telescopes. Like what are they called? Dyson spheres. You know, you might see a sun that seemed, that was like had an orbit of massive like objects that were absorbing the energy of the sun. Who knows? There's all kinds of things you could look for. But if I was looking for a secret society, I would look for a hierarchy. I would look for like, you know, a symbol set that most people don't know about. Secret handshakes, markings inside of gen pop like that, like indicate that they're there. And we see that all the time. And I'm not going to bore you guys with all of the like bizarre symbols that show up in like things like early Disney, you know what Google, early Disney, Illuminati used to weird shit like this all the time. Walt Disney of course was a Freemason. I think people know that. Club 33. There's 33 degrees of just image search that, find the good one. Yeah, look at that. Look at this Donald Duck. Ask about Illuminani on the, on the vision thing. And of course the inevitable penis that the bored animators did click on. I guess we can't show that but like in the Little Mermaid, these animators get bored and they draw cocks in there. That, that indicates you're probably not paying your animators enough. But yeah, this is not just, I mean it's the dollar bill, it's everywhere. But if you wanted to look for the other thing, then I would say keep your eyes peeled for benevolent moments of chaos. Keep your eyes peeled for things that don't that make that. Keep your eyes peeled for things that make hierarchical system seem embarrassing. You know, anytime you see like the news catching up with something and they can't really catch up with it, that's a sign that like this group is at work. Just novelty events that aren't horrifying. Things that challenge these old crusty power structures. Things that upset and overturn in a good non violent way. And also I would say like the look for like the giggle like you know, there's a, it's really funny when powerful people like lose control. It's trolling. You know, look for the trolls. You know, Mr. Rogers says look for the helpers. Look for the trolls, the benevolent trolls who are just, you know, Google like it this Is one of my favorite videos. Monkey grabbing tiger's tail. Monkeys actually fuck with tigers. This is hilarious. You ever seen this?
Zade
Mm.
Duncan
Watch.
Zade
This is his skydiving.
Duncan
That is just trolling. That monkey is a troll. It's just funny. Not everything has to be for, like, world dominance. And anytime you see stuff like that happening, you know that's what it is. There's always hope. Friends, don't let these boring ass motherfuckers scare you anymore. We're so sick of it, aren't we? I'm tired of it. I'm tired of everyone being all despondent and shook. And the number one problem is, like, we're putting way too much emphasis on, like, what rich people say, what multimillionaires say is right or wrong. I mean, not to, like, put a complete idiot stamp on this solo episode that I meant to only talk about the UFOs, maybe some other shit. But why are we. Why do we care? Like, that's the problem. We are so consumed with the dream of having a billionaire lead us into a new world. Who care. I'm not saying it's bad to be a billionaire. I would love to be a billionaire. Just to buy the commercials. Oh, my God. That's all I'd do. I'd make fake commercials for fake products. That's all you would see on the news. That's all you would see on TV is fake products. I would just try to out buy every corporation so they couldn't advertise anymore, just pay more. If I had Elon Musk money, that's all it would be, would be the most hilarious, stupid commercials. I would outbid every company I could. So if you were watching any show, you wouldn't see some fucking Pfizer commercial. You would see, like, I don't know, like a scramper, something one of my friends Boyd invented. I don't know if he ever made it, but it's basically like a back scratcher but for your ass. That's all it would be. Just like a tsunami of, like, completely meaningless commercials. I would do things like that. Why? Don't you ever wonder why don't. Why are there not troll commercials? Why are there only commercials that sell things? Cause my assumption is super rich people, they get bored. And for them, like, paying like 100k for a commercial or even a million. How much is a Super bowl commercial cost?
Zade
Over a million.
Duncan
But for them, a million dollars is like, nothing. So why aren't we seeing billionaire trolls putting up fake commercials for funny products?
Zade
Wasn't the Bass fish, that thing. Remember that bass fish that would sing on your wall?
Duncan
Yeah.
Zade
Everybody had. Yeah, that was like, that's a ridiculous product. But they had a ton of commercials for it.
Duncan
Really?
Zade
Yeah. You remember the president seeing like Elvis, it would turn and start singing.
Duncan
That was on the Super Bowl.
Zade
No, not on the super bowl, but I remember seeing a lot of ads for it.
Duncan
Yeah. At least that was like. Yeah. What's really weird to me is like when you see like a Halliburton commercial. You ever seen those?
Zade
Yeah.
Duncan
Pull up a Halliburton. Why are they advertising?
Zade
Yeah, one of the. The guy who shot Trump was in one. Oh, no, that was Blackrock.
Duncan
It's so weird that these guys do advertisers. Welcome to Haliburton. Wait, there we go. Halliburton ad. When I joined Halliburton, I knew I was going to work on some big things. We put out a few fires at work once ran into a small challenge of getting some supplies to our troops.
Josh
We built bridges, schools all over the world.
Duncan
But the biggest thing serving our troops, good old American food. Now Google what weapons are created by Halliburton. What weapons were created by Halliburton. It's so weird, but the commercials for these massive war companies just. Why Velocity revolve gun system. Halliburton company is America's multinational corporation, world's largest, second largest oil service company, which is. Oh, I thought they made weapons. The velocity modular perforating gun system. I guess they do make weapons. Oh, shit, look at that. Wow. Yeah, it's a weird thing, man. You turn on the tv, you get hypnotized by a hierarchical hell priest who's like taking information, slanting it to fit some like multinational weapons manufacturing company serve the military industrial complex. Bow down to the state people. And then you, of course you start feeling bad. Where attention goes energy flows. Maybe that's the first step when you become part of our decentralized imaginary secret society. Maybe your job is to just start diverting your attention away from the darkness. You know, I went on vacation with my family. I barely watched the fucking news. It was incredible. It was world peace for a whole week. I got to live in a peaceful world. Lockheed Martin, they have some crazy click on that one. Armed forces bowl. The future isn't written in stone. It can be made better, safer, more secure. That's why we obsess. We push the limits. Do they, you think they really have computers like that possibility into reality from the most advanced ways? I just incinerated a village and manned Missions to Mars at Lockheed Martin. We're engineering a better tomorrow. That is amazing.
Zade
That was in 2016.
Duncan
That is amazing. Wow. It's so. This, it's so interesting to me. And this is a different solo episode. The normalization of war is the craziest shit of all time, you know, because, like, this. I don't know if we're. What YouTube is going to think of this whole episode because I'm saying all the wrong words. But like, and I'm sorry, I've talked about this before. Louis CK has a great joke. I'm going to say it wrong, but it's like if you had to choose between your kid getting murdered or, like, abused. You know what I mean by that? Wouldn't you pick the latter? Right. Because they're still alive. Right? So murder, destruction. If we're looking at a sort of, like, scale of evil, isn't it worse than, like, other forms of violence, such as the various forms of abuse? You can't say on YouTube, but if there was a company manufacturing tools that left enemies alive but violated, the world would rise up against that company. It would be considered the most evil company on earth. You couldn't do a fucking commercial showing your, like, fisting. Fisting bomb just. Just drops on troops and just fists them dead.
Zade
People can't talk.
Duncan
No. It leaves them alive so they can talk.
Zade
Yeah, that's why it wouldn't work.
Duncan
Well, what I'm saying is it's crazy. We normalize war. It's. It's confounding. Like, to. To go on Reddit. These Reddit threads where these people are like, happily, like, celebrating war and death and catastrophe, and it doesn't even matter if you don't mention a country, a state. If you just say, I'm against war, people will say, oh, I guess you're a puppet of Russia. Yeah, it's fucking nuts. Like, you. You, like, you could say, I don't. I think war in general is horrifying. I want to thank Rocket Money for supporting this episode of the dtfh. My loves. The New Year is right around the corner.

That's RocketMoney.com Duncan. RocketMoney.com Duncan thank you, Rocket Money. Maybe sometimes there's no choice. Maybe sometimes you must resort to violence to protect people. Maybe that's true. But I still, in general, I think it should be something that we all feel nauseated about. And yet, dude, like when you see some guy zipping by in a fucking jet, it's beautiful. It's beautiful. But like, they're not going to show like the incinerated carcasses of people that guy will never meet. Like the whales of people who like, didn't even hear the jet. They just like, everything just, they just caught on fire. They don't show that part of it. At least show that if like I want to buy a pack of cigarettes and I have to see a picture of like fouled lungs. I feel like if you're a military arms manufacturer, when you do your fucking commercial, you can't just show the jet fly by. You've got to show at least like the funeral for the kids that dude just blew up, right? Like, what the fuck?
Zade
What's the feeling that you get too? So if jets fly by at a football game as an American you feel pride and yeah, that's us. But if you kid in Gaza hears a jet fly by, he's terrified.
Duncan
Yeah, right, yeah, it's this, it's like that. And that's the problem. I'm so guilty of it. The more you subscribe, the more you tune in, the more you stare at whatever the. I don't care what it is. Msnbc, cnn, whatever it is, Fox. The more you stare at that, the more things that shouldn't be normal become normal. Have you ever taken LSD and watch tv?
Zade
Dmt. Not lsd.
Duncan
DMT and watched. What did you watch?
Zade
I don't remember. I. We were watching a movie and I don't remember the movie at all.
Duncan
If you ever take LSD and watch tv, it is the most cringe inducing experience you can have. Like you. Because all the stuff you've gotten used to, the way people dress, the way people talk, all of it has been normalized and the LSD wipes the normalization away and you see it for what it is. This garish, gaudy parade of narcissism. It's so weird to watch. This is why I think podcasts and like social media content is become this huge industry is because like at least the Hock Tua girl is like real. That's a real person who passionately is describing like a fantastic method of fellating someone. Yeah, it's real, right? That's real. But then you watch any of the fucking slop they dish out in general on TV and it's so synthetic, it's so unreal, it's creepy even. And on acid you really see that. Like you see like what the fuck? That's not a person. I mean it's literally a person but they're not acting like anyone I've ever met.
Zade
It's a corporation.
Duncan
It's a corporation that has groomed like people into behaving in such a strange way. God. You know, this is why I'm going to have to wrap this up, but this is why maybe I sound a little unhinged. Have you ever watched this show, Real Housewives?
Zade
No, dude, I know what it is, but I've never watched it.
Duncan
Oh my God. Real. Real Housewives of, I think Utah or Salt. Real Housewives of Salt Lake City came on and it's like I've ne. It's the most fucking warped shit I've ever seen on tv. It is. They just take these mortal enemies, put them together at dinner parties and they fake fight. It's not even real. I don't think it's real fighting. It's all just some kind of engineered, like, peak inside the elite lives of Salt Lake City wives or some shit. But none of it's real. And I know I'm not trying. It's like, I know you guys know that, but it's when you start, see, you see that, you're watching that. And then a commercial comes on and the commercial is showing another thing that's completely not real. Like, no one's acting or behaving or interacting the way normal people interact or behave. And then you flip to the Lifetime channel and it's like, and I, I know it's actors, guys, I know that, but it's not like I just discovered acting. I'm saying the insidious thing is that this is a secondary bullshit, warped, hyper, distorted, consumerist, manipulative reality parading around as though it were us. And it's not. And, like, the more you start absorbing, like you start watching that, there's this implication over and over and over again that this is what normal is. This. We are setting the standard for normal. You want to see normal? It's the ladies of the View. They're as normal as normal could be. That sophisticated, normal people, normal. It's Waters World, man. Jesse Waters, completely normal. Rachel Maddow, completely normal. These are normal adults living normal adult lives. And whatever the fuck you're doing over there as you sit on your couch contemplating pissing in a cup because you don't want to get up to use the bathroom, looking down at the ashtray full of discarded roaches, knowing you've got like, three pieces of bread left and maybe just enough almond butter to make another sandwich. You know what I mean? A lot of people are living like that. No one's living like they're showing us. And then that produces this disconnect that can really make you feel strange in a specific kind of way. It's an unnerving strangeness. And I think this is why social media, where you just, you know, these people are posting their Instagram videos like they're wearing adult diapers. They're covered in cat shit. They're giving you advice about how to be happy. That's more like what we are than the other way. I'm not saying we're all wearing diapers, are covered in cat shit. I'm def. I am not wearing diapers. But something about, like something seems to be happening where probably because of social media, that reality that was displayed, it felt a little bit less alien. Something about it. It was A little closer to the world. But it's like there's some disconnect has happened between the corporations and boots on the ground. So what they're showing us is becoming increasingly alien, increasingly unlike anything any of us are experiencing. And that fucking disconnect is really weird. It's like they've lost the thread or something like that. Or they're just being like overcome by the quickness and like the speed at which stuff like this can just be.
Zade
Put out or waking up as a people.
Duncan
I mean, I want to. What about this? Did we ever fall asleep? And if we did, is the reason we fell asleep is because we just got hypnotized by our TVs and by corporate sponsored media into believing the world was completely different than it was. That we're all freaks because we're not symmetrical and we don't have the new car, the new phone. We're not dancing around, we're not running through the, through the rain to get to our fucking Pilates class before we slurp back a ultralight beer or some bullshit like that. We're like generally like nervous, overworked, freaking out a lot of the times unhappy, and then even worse because these make it seem like a human life actually has resolution. That's what I hated about the, the Real Housewives is they're always trying to resolve something. The message that gets put out over and over again is like, you can have some real resolution in your life to your sorrow. And that resolution usually comes via a new house, new apartment, new car, whatever. None of that's true. Maybe that's the waking up is we're just realizing clown show that the hierarchical corporatists have been splooging in our faces for generations is not us. Like I don't know who the it is, but it's not us.
Zade
We're waking up because we don't have the money to continue that lifestyle.
Duncan
Right. That's where they up. Yep, they, they. It's like they, they're. They had to like the, you know. Yeah, the, the crack lever isn't working in the, in the cage that you're supposed to push the lever and crack comes out and like I think people are like, dude, we have to push the lever too many times. In the old days you only had to push the lever three times and you get a nice burst of crack smoke. Now you gotta push that like 600 times to get a hit of like not great cocaine. Yeah, that's what it is. That's good though, because that probably means like they'll restock the coke.
Zade
Well, they keep saying the great reset's about to happen. So, I mean, I don't think that's going to be good for everybody.
Duncan
What's the great reset again?
Zade
The whole financial system is out and there's a new financial system put in there.
Duncan
The World bank, the mark of the beast, the chip. I don't think it's going to happen at all. I think it's just going to be like, you know, the great reset can go the other fucking way too. Instead of letting them like crash the economy. It's like if that's the thing, we're always like rush cop, the guy, the guest I had on last week, he loves pointing out, you know, they're always like, if the banks fail, everything's done. It's like, no, actually the ground still grows food and we can all still work together and help each other. So we don't really need your fucking banks. Go fuck your. Fuck your banks. And that's the reset. The reset doesn't just have to be the banks failed. Now the reset could easily be a cultural shift of value where we stop valuing the things they tell us are important. That's their worst nightmare. God help them if suddenly people realize like, you will be just as happy like walking through a park on a sunny day as you will at like a really super nice hotel, slurping back mai ties after you bought your new car. And I mean that, that's a real weird thing when you start realizing stuff like that, that all the stuff they're trying to get you to, all the crack, the crack isn't good. Give me good crack when I push the lever. But if you start realizing the crack is actually like not making you happy, the whole. That could be a reset too, right? What is the reset have to be top down. It could be bottom up, bottom up style, decentralized revaluing of things in the world completely not controlled by any one person or group.
Zade
Bitcoin.
Duncan
Yeah, Bitcoin. Or, or even just like, my God, like if we could figure out a way to be happy minus buying shit. That's the most revolutionary thing that you could possibly do. And that is happening. I think they're talking about people aren't working anymore. It's like people are. Yeah, I figured out a way to be happy with very, very little. I don't need to do a 48 hour minimum wage job. I've actually found ways to, you know, communal living. Dumpster diving.
Zade
Yeah.
Duncan
You know what, why don't we Close on this. Can you Google, search YouTube? Charles Manson's garbage dump. You really summed it up.

Podcast Summary: Duncan Trussell Family Hour – Episode 656: “Soloooooo”
Release Date: December 15, 2024
In this solo episode of the Duncan Trussell Family Hour, host Duncan Trussell delves deep into a myriad of topics ranging from UFO sightings and predictive web bots to conspiracy theories surrounding the Rothschild family, the Illuminati, media manipulation, and the impact of decentralized systems like Bitcoin. Through an engaging and thought-provoking conversation with guests Josh and Zade, Duncan navigates the intricate web of modern mysteries and societal structures, offering listeners a comprehensive exploration of these enigmatic subjects.
Duncan opens the discussion by addressing a recent surge in Unidentified Aerial Phenomena (UAP) sightings, referencing a Reddit clip that highlights this phenomenon. He scrutinizes the validity of these reports, considering possibilities such as camera effects, hoaxes, or genuine extraterrestrial occurrences.
Duncan (00:30): "Sometimes the idea of an uptick creates the uptick. Like some videos that maybe people have been sitting on show up. People are more inclined to fake videos."
He draws parallels to historical events like the 1952 Washington D.C. UFO flap, emphasizing the cyclical nature of UFO sightings and public fascination.
Duncan (05:45): "This wouldn't be the first time that swarms of UFOs appeared in DC. Can you Google UFO Swarm DC sometime?"
The conversation shifts to the intriguing subject of web bots predicting future events, specifically an alien invasion coinciding with Donald Trump's appearance on the Joe Rogan Experience (JRE). Duncan introduces the concept of Cliff High's web bot, a system purported to foresee global occurrences based on online chatter.
Duncan (11:02): "Will the web bots alien war prediction come true?"
He and his guests explore the credibility of such predictions, critiquing the specificity and historical accuracy of the web bot's forecasts.
Zade (14:15): "Like, JRE wasn't even around at the time."
A significant portion of the episode delves into conspiracy theories surrounding the Rothschild family. Duncan discusses a peculiar glitch in ChatGPT that seemingly censored the name David Meyer de Rothschild, leading to speculations about AI platforms being influenced by anti-Semitic sentiments and powerful families.
Duncan (27:48): "I did see another YouTube video pop up, which was some kind of expose on the elder Rothschild. And he was like saying some, he was apparently saying something really bad, sinister thing."
He examines the historical context of the Rothschilds, addressing the baseless anti-Semitic accusations that have long plagued the family.
Zade (33:36): "Wasn't around that time the Illuminati created in Germany the..."
Exploring the darker realms of societal structures, Duncan and his guests discuss the Illuminati, portraying it as a product of hierarchical systems that suppress truth and manipulate global events. Duncan offers a unique defense of the Illuminati, suggesting it may emerge as a response to the suppression of truth by mainstream society.
Duncan (40:16): "This is my defense of the Illuminati. Every. Everybody thinks that the Illuminati is evil. Maybe the Illuminati is a byproduct of gen pop having a negative relationship with truth."
The dialogue touches upon the dichotomy between centralized control and decentralized resistance, highlighting the ongoing battle between structured hierarchies and spontaneous movements advocating for transparency and truth.
Duncan (47:06): "They control the currency. But Bitcoin, isn't that the opposite of controlling the currency?"
A critical examination of media influence follows, where Duncan argues that corporate media plays a pivotal role in normalizing war and controlling public perception. He criticizes how media often glamorizes military actions without showcasing the real human impact, thereby desensitizing the audience.
Duncan (71:25): "It's so weird that these guys do advertisers. Welcome to Halliburton. Wait, there we go."
He highlights the disconnect between the portrayed reality in media and the actual human experiences, suggesting that this manipulation fosters a distorted sense of normalcy.
The discussion transitions to decentralized financial systems like Bitcoin, positing them as a countermeasure to centralized control of currency. Duncan advocates for Bitcoin's role in disrupting traditional financial hierarchies, emphasizing its potential to democratize financial power.
Zade (47:37): "It's a decentralized revaluing of things in the world completely not controlled by any one person or group."
He underscores the significance of decentralized systems in empowering individuals and reducing the influence of monopolistic entities over global economics.
Duncan and his guests explore how social media and modern communication platforms have altered the perception of reality. They discuss the rise of artificial and manipulated content, leading to a societal disconnect where genuine human experiences are overshadowed by fabricated narratives.
Duncan (86:37): "What about this? Did we ever fall asleep? And if we did, is the reason we fell asleep is because we just got hypnotized by our TVs and by corporate sponsored media into believing the world was completely different than it was."
This segment delves into the psychological effects of consuming curated and often misleading content, advocating for a more authentic and less manipulated engagement with information.
In wrapping up the episode, Duncan offers a blend of skepticism and hope, suggesting that even within pervasive systems of control, there exists the potential for grassroots movements and decentralized actions to foster positive change. He emphasizes the importance of individual agency and the collective effort to resist manipulative hierarchies.
Duncan (90:58): "Or even just like, my God, like if we could figure out a way to be happy minus buying shit. That's the most revolutionary thing that you could possibly do."
He encourages listeners to seek happiness beyond material acquisitions, hinting at a cultural shift towards valuing genuine human connections and experiences over consumerist pursuits.
Duncan (00:30): "Sometimes the idea of an uptick creates the uptick. Like some videos that maybe people have been sitting on show up. People are more inclined to fake videos."
Duncan (11:02): "Will the web bots alien war prediction come true?"
Zade (14:15): "Like, JRE wasn't even around at the time."
Duncan (27:48): "I did see another YouTube video pop up, which was some kind of expose on the elder Rothschild. And he was like saying some, he was apparently saying something really bad, sinister thing."
