Mystic Michaela
Hey, Mystic Michaela spiritual family, welcome to Know youw Aura with Mystic Michaela. Today, like usual, we're talking about all things aura, but in the Gen Z way. What does aura mean in that capacity? What is aura points? What's aura farming? We're gonna talk about all things Gen Z Aura Genesis today. But first. Hey, Scotty.
Scotty
Hey, guys. All right, first, my first question here is what age group is Gen Z? How old are they?
Mystic Michaela
Yeah, Gen Z was born between 1997 and 2012.
Scotty
Okay.
Mystic Michaela
So right now they're around, if I'm doing math, right, 14 to 29 years old.
Scotty
Okay. So what I want you guys to do is grab your, your kiddos. If you have an older kid living at home still, grab them kids.
Mystic Michaela
Grab your 29 year old. Sure.
Scotty
Grab your 29 year old. Maybe you are 29 and Abby knows about this stuff too. So grab your 11 year old, 12 year old.
Mystic Michaela
Grab the Gen Alphas. They know better, they know best.
Scotty
Yeah. So this is, this is for them. You know, we're, me and you, we're just going to come off cringy today.
Mystic Michaela
Oh, this would be very cringy. Fair warning.
Scotty
So let's define some of these terms.
Mystic Michaela
All right, so here's the thing. There's the Gen Z, like aura terminology, and then there's my, the way that I do it. So it's actually not that different. So aura for the Gen Z is like your presence, your unique energy, your confidence, your vibe, your style. Okay, so they say like somebody has aura. That's a positive thing. Like, oh, he's got aura, she's got aura. It's, it's definitely what I do. I see life force energies around people when they're healthy and authentic, they present in kind of vibrant ways. And I always say you can feel people like you. Your energy speaks before you open your mouth to say one word. So it makes sense that Gen Z, you know, has picked this up, have, has picked up this energy, this unseen thing and put the word aura to it. Cause I feel like it's the same thing.
Scotty
Yeah. So basically what you're saying, like they're saying aura is like the cool factor, a presence.
Mystic Michaela
Right.
Scotty
But you're really saying the same thing too. I remember when you were on Kaitlyn Bristow's podcast the first time she was not in the room.
Mystic Michaela
Oh my gosh. That's right.
Scotty
And you could feel her aura in the building.
Mystic Michaela
Yes.
Scotty
And I think she's a small person.
Mystic Michaela
She's really tiny. Yeah, I met her. She's little.
Scotty
Right.
Mystic Michaela
Yeah.
Scotty
And, like, you asked me did I feel it? I said no, but. Oh, yeah, but you felt it throughout the building. And I'm like. And I think my thing. But she's so little, you know?
Mystic Michaela
Yeah.
Scotty
And I think Kelly Pickler, too, when you went on her show.
Mystic Michaela
Yeah.
Scotty
She also. You said the aura just was everywhere.
Mystic Michaela
Yes.
Scotty
So I think that's what they're getting.
Mystic Michaela
That's what they're saying, and it makes sense. Like, that generation, if you think about it, they've had to put a lot of. I love young people. Like, I really. I've. You know, I've always been like this when I was teaching and whatnot. I love how, like, the younger generations put words to things that the older generations maybe have kind of just, like, you know, let. Let go of or haven't talked about or haven't validated. So I feel like this younger generation, what they did with energy is they're validating your authenticity factor, you know, not what you have written on your resume, not what somebody says about you, but literally what you feel like and what you make other people feel like when you enter a room. And that's what they are calling having aura.
Scotty
Right.
Mystic Michaela
And they do it in ways. It's really funny. So it's very positive when used alone. You know, like, she has a natural aura. She doesn't even try. Or. Or a place can have aura. Like, this thrift store has major aura.
Scotty
Or.
Mystic Michaela
Or, like, somebody could have, like, main character aura. Like, they're living a movie. They draw attention. All right. So it's just kind of like this. Just this. The thing that speaks for you, but you're not. Here's the key thing. Like, you're not trying. Like, this is exactly who you are authentically. That's aura.
Scotty
Right, Right. And the thing is, like, this is not anything new. Now, Gen Zers didn't come up with it. Just because you were born in 1997, you think you came up with this. We were doing this, too. I was group leader. Okay. We had that episode.
Mystic Michaela
Yeah. When you were a kid, you're saying.
Scotty
But I didn't use the word aura.
Mystic Michaela
You're saying when you were 17.
Scotty
Right. I had aura.
Mystic Michaela
You had aura. Wow.
Scotty
Yeah.
Mystic Michaela
Oh, my God. It's kind of aura to admit that you had aura.
Scotty
Yeah.
Mystic Michaela
Like, to me, I feel like you have aura by. By being so confident about saying that you had aura.
Scotty
Now I have no aura. But back then, I had the aura, and. But I never called it that. I didn't even know the word. I didn't if you ain't even told me the word when I was 17, I wouldn't know what it was.
Mystic Michaela
Well, we back then, we didn't have that. We would have used like cool factor, like that kind of thing. Like, oh, he's cool. Yeah.
Scotty
I don't know if I was ever called cool.
Mystic Michaela
But you had aura in my group.
Scotty
Let me redefine this. In my small group of friends, in my friend group, I had aura. The rest of the school probably thought I was no aura.
Mystic Michaela
Oh, okay. So then there's aura points. So if your aura is a thing they call aura points is like the sum of your aura. So throughout the day, let's say you have aura. Right. And throughout the day you can gain and lose aura through actions.
Scotty
Okay.
Mystic Michaela
And that's like aura points. So you can have positive aura points or negative aura points. Okay.
Scotty
Okay.
Mystic Michaela
So your cool factor basically goes up or down and like how cringe you are can take away how cool can add it. So for example, let's say you're walking down the hallway and your backpack's open. You ever see a kid like that? Remember in school the kid like had their backpack just flopping open?
Scotty
Yeah.
Mystic Michaela
You know they lost aura points. Or let's say in the group chat, like you say something funny in the group chat, like, haha. Oh my God, that was so fun. You just gained aura points.
Scotty
Like right before we tape started taping this episode, I spilled water over everything.
Mystic Michaela
Yeah. Over our new equipment.
Scotty
Like a doofus. And that would be losing aura points.
Mystic Michaela
If you're a doofus, that's negative aura. Negative, negative aura points. It's right. If you have cats like I do, they watch me clean the litter. Right. And then they wait and then they proceed to go into the litter and. And do their best work, let's put it that way. And what would it be like if you had a litter box that never smelled again? Well, this podcast is sponsored by Boxy. Boxy is the last cat litter you'll switch to. And their Boxy Pro Deep Clean is the best cat litter money can buy. The pro in Boxy Pro stands for probiotics, which Boxy puts right in the litter that gobble up odor causing bacteria and keeps the box continuously odor free. Yes, continuously. Not for 10 days or 20 days. Infinite days of continual odor freeness. And your cat won't smell anything either. So there's no like fake sense, which gives your kitty one less reason to avoid the box. And for a limited time, get 30% off your first order plus free Shipping. When you head to boxy cat.com know your aura and use code kya. The team at Boxy sent me Boxy pro, deep clean, and oh, my gosh, this will be the last litter I ever use. There is no question about it. You do not need to do full litter changes. Okay. That's. That's. You just scoop it, top it off with a little more fresh, boxy litter, and that's it. And that actually work. So if you're tired of switching litters and looking for the one, get 30 off your boxy. Order at B O x I e cat.com backslash kya and use code kya. That's boxycat.com kya. And make sure you use my code kya so they know I sent you.
Scotty
Well, I do. I do have to plug. If you did not see the Tamron hall Show this week, Mr. Michaela was on it.
Mystic Michaela
Yes.
Scotty
Doing her version of aura. And they were talking about aura points for one of the segments. So I have to say, and. And I think you could probably watch it on some.
Mystic Michaela
It's on abc.
Scotty
Yeah, Demand, Right. I'm sure you can get on demand. It would have been a couple days before this aired. I would just say you had a lot of aura going out there. You. You got the points. Thank you for going out there, doing your thing. You really gained a lot of aura points.
Mystic Michaela
My recommendation to having aura is, you know, I was nervous because it's a live studio audience, so, you know, I'm not. You walk out, and it's just like, bam. There's a hundred people looking at you at once, and they're all like, oh, this is the girl that does auras. And you're, like, walking on there. And there's Tamran hall, and she's so beautiful, and she is aura. We're gonna be. We're totally cringe this episode, guys. Yeah, we're using it.
Scotty
It's kind of like a full overtime episode.
Mystic Michaela
Oh, is it?
Scotty
Okay.
Mystic Michaela
Overtime has aura.
Scotty
Overtime has aura.
Mystic Michaela
But it could be aura farming. We're gonna get into this. We're gonna get into this. Okay. Anyway, so you walk out, and my recommendation to anybody that has to go do public speaking or anything, like, really scary where there's people looking at you, like, immediately just get into it and connect with everybody. Like, I was just like, whatever. I love every single person looking at me right now. And I did. And that, like, really helped me.
Scotty
And it showed in your aurora.
Mystic Michaela
Oh, good. Yeah, that's really good. Okay. But we have to talk about aura farming. Okay, so aura farming is when you're trying to look cool on purpose, from what I understand. So. All right, so where did this come from? I guess this all comes from, like, the gaming community. This is so not my age. But, like, if you have kids, they. They might talk about, like, I gotta grind. That's what our kids say.
Scotty
Yes, they do.
Mystic Michaela
Like, on Adopt Me all the time. They're like, I gotta grind.
Scotty
I'm like, abby, do you wanna watch, like, Vampire Diaries or something? No, I have to grind.
Mystic Michaela
I'm grinding.
Scotty
I'm like, what does that even mean?
Mystic Michaela
I gotta make my mega ne Easter Bunny. I'm like, okay. Like, so. So. So it kind of comes from, like, farming on, like, in these games or grinding or farming. Like, it's like making something anyways. But if you're aura farming, you're trying to look cool on purpose. So it's like this curated presence. So it's. It, I think. And this is where I. I kind of don't understand 100. Like, it can be good and it can be not good. Like, if you're farming aura and you're doing it in the right way, that's good. But if you're aura farming, that means you're trying to look like a. Try hard. That's. That's negative. So, like, this episode is aura farming. Like, we're using the language to make ourselves cooler.
Scotty
Is that so we're doing it.
Mystic Michaela
This is negative things. Negative aura farming. This is bad. We negative aura points. We get negative or 100% with this episode. So, like, this would be like aura farming. Especially if you ask, like, our kids.
Scotty
Okay, so, like, so, like, influencers. They're aura farming.
Mystic Michaela
Yeah. If they're doing it, it's, like, too, like, cringy. Like, oh, she's cat her captions. Oh, my gosh, how cringe. What? She's aura farming or Kya podcast is aura farming. A whole episode about Gen Z terms or those filters. Aura farming. Omg. You know, like, that kind of thing.
Scotty
So that, like, Mormon wives show. That's total aura farming. Because it's horrible. And they're all trying to be something. I don't know, you know?
Mystic Michaela
Well, you have your own version of aura farming. That's when you personally don't like somebody. Now you just start saying, oh, that's aura farming.
Scotty
So basically, if I don't have your own.
Mystic Michaela
Like, I think we were driving behind somebody slow today, and you were like, wow, there's such an aura farmer. And I'm like, that's not just because you don't like somebody. So it's not that, say, aura farmer
Scotty
Scotty doesn't like you. That's not Aura farmer.
Mystic Michaela
Right. So I feel like. So that's like, the three main things before we get into, I guess, like, utilizing these.
Scotty
So how would you do, like, oral farming? Pot. Like, positively. You'd have to be like. Like, really, honestly. You'd have to be cool.
Mystic Michaela
Right? So, like, there's this trend right now, and. And I think it's happening a lot in schools, like, where. Let's say you're walking behind a kid. Let's say you're the teacher and you're walking behind a kid, and the kid, like, drops a piece of paper, and you're like, here, you know, Johnny, here's your piece of paper. And he turns around, signs it, and hands it to you like you want it. Like, kind of like you wanted his autograph. You're welcome. That's like, funny Aura farming. Like, he just farmed his aura in, like, a funny way.
Scotty
So, like, the stuff I did in high school, I could say a couple of things right now, probably, like, okay, so, like, one day, it was for English class, it was after lunch, and I decided to take out a toothbrush and brush my teeth in the class while the teacher was giving a lesson.
Mystic Michaela
What row were you in?
Scotty
Like, the middle. Like, okay, is that so that would be trying to orifar but gone wrong.
Mystic Michaela
No, I think that that's. Or a farming in a good way.
Scotty
Oh, that is a good way.
Mystic Michaela
Yeah, I think that's like a good way because, like, you just kind of went for it and it could have been cringy.
Scotty
Right.
Mystic Michaela
But did you get laughs, like, where people, like, did they think it was funny?
Scotty
Well, I got kicked out of the class.
Mystic Michaela
Okay.
Scotty
But I think I got more confusion, like, like, what is he doing?
Mystic Michaela
Like, what's he doing? But, yeah, your humor takes a while. It really takes a. Like a palette. Okay. You know, like. Like a. Like, did other students come up to you later and they're, like, funny? Or they were, like, such a freak. So, no, I think it was more
Scotty
like, yeah, you missed the mark on that. Now, the other time I did it, it was again English class. It was always English class. No, this was a different teacher. This is next year English class.
Mystic Michaela
Okay.
Scotty
It was 11th grade, I think, or senior year. I don't remember a big song then was I Can't Dance by Phil Collins.
Mystic Michaela
Right.
Scotty
And they had this dance where, like, three guys would walk doing a funny dance. And I Decided with two other people to get up on the windowsill of the classroom while the lady was teaching. I was terrible. And we did the. The I can't dance walk.
Mystic Michaela
Okay.
Scotty
Is that aura farming?
Mystic Michaela
Yeah, that's aura farming.
Scotty
So it's bad.
Mystic Michaela
They think it was funny.
Scotty
I think that one I got more, like, laughs.
Mystic Michaela
I think, like, if. If it's well received, aura farming can be positive.
Scotty
Okay.
Mystic Michaela
But there's, like, ways that people farm their aura on purpose. Like, like, I was looking. There's, like, different types of aura farmers. Okay. Like, there's an aura farmer, for example, who. Your looks. Oh, my God. I. This is so cringey, guys. I'm sorry. There's like, looks maxing. Aura farming was that. Swear you, like, let's say you're meeting up with all your friends, okay. And you're like, hey, guys. But, like, everybody just, like, dress casual. You know, Don't. Don't try or anything. And then you come in, you look, like, amazing. Like, you obviously tried, like, your looks maxing, but you farmed your aura for. By making sure everybody looks like crap. And then you come in looking, like, amazing.
Scotty
Okay, I never do that. I just always wear my hoodie. But Petro Honchar sometimes does.
Mystic Michaela
Yes, I can see, like, Petro Honchar doing that. So there's, like, different types of aura farmers. Like, you can also aura farm your mystique.
Scotty
Yeah.
Mystic Michaela
You know, by being more mysterious on purpose. Like, like when somebody asks you a question, you're just, like, silent or you're like, I don't know. Like, that's like aura farming. Like, with mystique, that's like a different kind of aura farmer as well. So maybe your aura farming was more like getting, like, class clown was your way of aura farming.
Scotty
Okay, this sounds a lot more complicated than your style of the nine order colors, mixed match, tricolor, tornado, blah, blah, blah. Okay.
Mystic Michaela
Yeah. It's interesting because the kids. I think the idea behind it is you being authentic, but then. And just be in yourself. And the whole thing of, like, to have aura is you don't care what anybody thinks. Like, that's how you really have aura. But then all the stuff around it is based on what people think about you at the same time. So to have real aura, my thought would be you don't care about gaining or losing points or if you're farming or not. Like, you just do you. And then you have aura. And then like, forget about, like, oh, negative aura. Or she's. Or like, you can't. You got to forget about all that. To even have aura, okay, it's crazy.
Scotty
Crazy.
Mystic Michaela
It's really, it's in depth, but at
Scotty
the end of the day, they're really just tapping into the same thing.
Mystic Michaela
It's just like, enter it's authentic energy. And you're picking it up.
Scotty
And you're just picking it up. Yeah.
Mystic Michaela
And then also I think like, if you, let's say you lose your like negative aura points. Like, let's say you trip in front of your crush. Like you're walking and you're like, oh, I tripped in front of my crush. Or like you see somebody waving if this ever happened to you and you're like, oh, hi. And you wave and you realize they were just waving at the person behind you. That's real bad. You know, like that's like losing. But like, if you own it, you know, you know, your aura can break through the negativity of it. All right, so should we, I think
Scotty
we maybe need some examples. Like, who has aura? Who doesn't have aura? Who's got aura points? Who doesn't have aura points?
Mystic Michaela

Scotty
All right, I think we got to do this. All right, let's start with. Everyone loves this guy. Yeah, we talk about him all the time on the show. He gets his peaches down in Georgia. Yes, we know that Justin Bieber.
Mystic Michaela
Justin Bieber has had a rough ride lately. But when he came out to do his Coachella set, and if you didn't watch it, what happened was he came out, he kind of fiddled with a laptop or something. I'm gonna be honest. I didn't watch the whole thing. I only watched, like, clips I saw. And he fiddled with his laptop, and then behind him came his old YouTube videos from when he was a kid. And then he just sang along with his old YouTube videos, and that was it. Okay. I will say his aura, which is green purple me, looked amazing. It was projecting. It was authentic. He was having fun. He was doing what he wanted to do. So based on Gen Z terminology, I would say he had aura. And I don't think he was aura farming on purpose because he was just like, I'm gonna do the bare minimum to get my unprecedented Coachella pay, which was like $10 million for this set. And he's like, I'm gonna do the bare minimum, and I don't care. And he did. And for some reason, his lack of perceived effort towards it, I think actually did farm his aura. Okay. If that makes sense.
Scotty
Yeah.
Mystic Michaela
Because he wasn't farming his aura on purpose.
Scotty
Right, Right.
Mystic Michaela
Am I doing this right? I don't know, but does that sound right?
Scotty
Yeah, it sounds right.
Mystic Michaela
But he looked great. He looked like just back to the Megan Mystic, Michaela way of doing it. Like, his aura did look really healthy. And I always worry about this kid. I think my mom instincts are always like, oh, my God, Justin. You know, like. And he looked better, so I was
Scotty
happy that he looked good, so. And we'll give him aura points for that.
Mystic Michaela
He gets aura points for taking care of himself and doing things his way.
Scotty
This person's not on the list, but I'm just going to add her right now. Selena Gomez. No, Aura. No aura points. Negative aura points. Stealing from mystic Miquella, even more negative aura. I am not letting that go.
Mystic Michaela
Okay, okay.
Scotty
All right. Al Roker.
Mystic Michaela
Al Roker's got aura.
Scotty
He's got aura.
Mystic Michaela
He's just got aura. Natural aura.
Scotty
Natural aura.
Mystic Michaela
He's green, purple, blue, by the way. But he just has. He has aura. He just has it done.
Scotty
How?
Mystic Michaela
I don't know.
Scotty
How come I can't have the Al Roker?
Mystic Michaela
He's just so cool.
Scotty
How come I can't have the Al Roker aura points?
Mystic Michaela
Everybody wants Al Roker aura points. Al Roker aura should be its own aura.
Scotty
And the thing is, he's been doing it, you know, it's real.
Mystic Michaela
Yeah.
Scotty
Oh, it's real because he's been doing it forever.
Mystic Michaela
He's so consistent.
Scotty
I don't know when he started doing the weather.
Mystic Michaela
Yeah.
Scotty
But it was, like, many, many years ago, and he still hasn't.
Mystic Michaela
He used to go on Conan o'. Brien. I'm ajing myself. He was so funny. Like, he's just. He's just, like, consistently cool.
Scotty
Conan o'. Brien. He's not on the list either, but we could go off list here.
Mystic Michaela
Okay.
Scotty
I think he ora farms.
Mystic Michaela
He does aura farm. You know, he lost aura points. Like, with the. I think going more mainstream, like, with posting the Oscars and stuff. To me, I'm like, you lose negative aura.
Scotty
Like, he had it, I think, in the beginning when he started.
Mystic Michaela
Yeah, he had the aura. He had aura.
Scotty
But then somewhere along the line, I think he lost it.
Mystic Michaela
I think he's always been farming his aura, but at some point, it just got too much.
Scotty
Bad crops.
Mystic Michaela
The crops are bad bad. Or a crop.
Scotty
Bad crops.
Mystic Michaela
All right. Beyonce ora. I mean, she just walks out, and everyone's like, there's something about her.
Scotty
Sure.
Mystic Michaela
Like, even if you're. I can't imagine what it's like to see her in person. Like, on stage or whatever. It must be like, whoa. You know? But like, even on TV or whatever, you're like, wow. And she's got, like, the mystique aura of farming. Like, I feel like she doesn't talk unless she wants to. She's very careful about how she appears and who she appears and when she appears. So I feel like she aura farms her mystique, but it works for her. Okay. That's what I think. Okay. Yeah. She's purple blue, but.
Scotty
All right, now here's one that upsets me. Oh.
Mystic Michaela
Oh, yeah.
Scotty
Alex Honnold.
Mystic Michaela
That's hard for you.
Scotty
Okay. Alex Honnold. Was the guy that free soloed El Cap.
Mystic Michaela
Yeah. You know him now because.
Scotty
Yeah. He did the stunt with the tower,
Mystic Michaela
the Netflix special, and was it Shanghai?
Scotty
I forget.
Mystic Michaela
Yeah.
Scotty
Yeah. Well, okay, so his aura is what? Green?
Mystic Michaela
He's green.
Scotty
Definitely green.
Mystic Michaela
He's green.
Scotty
Green. Just green.
Mystic Michaela
He's like, very green. Blue. He's green. Blue.
Scotty
All right, so let me do a little history with.
Mystic Michaela
Yes, go ahead and do it. Aura related with context.
Scotty
Okay, well, first, I have to say it's very hard to impress me. Extremely hard to impress me. And I've. Throughout my life, I just feel I'm no better than anyone, and no one's better than me.
Mystic Michaela
I feel like the speech is aura farming.
Scotty
It might be, but let me just give the speech. And the reason why is because we all do the same functions. We all go to the bathroom. We all have to do things. You know, sleep, eat, blah, blah, blah, blah. So that's why, you know, when I see someone like Kim Kardashian out there or Selena Gomez, I'm like, ugh, gross. You know, you're not better than anybody, even though they think they are. Okay. But Alex Honnell, when he climbed El Cap without a rope, it impressed me so much that I'm like, this guy's not human. Thus, he's out of my scope of my logic, which is no one's better than me because we all do the same things. But this guy isn't human.
Mystic Michaela
Yeah.
Scotty
How did he do that? Yeah, he impressed me so much that I put him on, like, a pedestal of no one else in the world.
Mystic Michaela
It's true. For many years.
Scotty
For many years, this was the one exception to the rule. If he wanted to be better than me, I would be, like, okay with it.
Mystic Michaela
If you want to see someone with aura, you watch Free Solo, right? Watch that documentary. That guy's got aura.
Scotty
I watched that documentary 10 times.
Mystic Michaela
Yeah.
Scotty
This guy had aura.
Mystic Michaela
Aura.
Scotty
The greatest points you could give someone as many feet as, you know, Mount Everest, whatever. That's how many aura points.
Mystic Michaela
He had lived in a van, and he didn't even bother to have utensils. He ate with just the same spoon he cooked with.
Scotty
Yeah. Just ate with a spoon.
Mystic Michaela
I mean, that's aura.
Scotty
And he. Okay, now, then, of course, this documentary got big. He did a couple other documentaries which were. Okay. Lost a few points, but not a lot of points. But then he did the tower thing.
Mystic Michaela
Yeah.
Scotty
And I know, first of all, that is an incredible feat.
Mystic Michaela
Yeah.
Scotty
It's insane. I totally was mesmerized.
Mystic Michaela
Obviously, that's cool. Yeah.
Scotty
But to me, he. And if you watch any of his other documentaries, he never ever talked about doing a Man made structure. He was only about structures in nature.
Mystic Michaela
That is true and all.
Scotty
And the documentary was leading you to believe that that was his number one goal in life, to climb that tower. Now, maybe it is. I don't know the guy personally, but I don't think so.
Mystic Michaela
Right.
Scotty
So I would say he lost a lot of aura points with me, maybe others, but he was aura farming. Was that documentary Aura Farming for Netflix.
Mystic Michaela
I feel like that documentary was aura farming from Netflix. I mean, if you. If you hadn't been familiar with him before, right. You might not have thought that way. You might like. Well, but I think because, yeah, we were so familiar with him parasocially before we saw that. We're like, oh, yeah, sell out.
Scotty
Yeah, sell out.
Mystic Michaela
And then I think aura farming could be selloutness.
Scotty
It could be.
Mystic Michaela
That could qualify as a. As an aura farming.
Scotty
Yeah, it was a total sellout.
Mystic Michaela
Yeah.
Scotty
I couldn't. I had to watch it on like fast forward.
Mystic Michaela
It was, well, the announcer, you know,
Scotty
there were signs that he was aura farming. I think he did like a deodorant commercial or something.
Mystic Michaela
Like a soap.
Scotty
So commercial or something. I'm like, alex, come on, man.
Mystic Michaela
You're the guy that did all Cap with all. I kept saying, like, you know, you know, he's married and I think he doesn't know. His wife's probably like, please stop climbing things.
Scotty
Yeah, but. But you know, but that was terrifying. The tower. He could have died.
Mystic Michaela
I know, but for him, it's like, easy. That was probably also, if you see him climb other things, like.
Scotty
Yeah.
Mystic Michaela
Like a man made structure. I'm not saying that's not hard, but if just I. It's like, it's a pattern. He probably understood.
Scotty
Yeah. His green brain.
Mystic Michaela
Yeah, he's like. It's like this, this, this, this. He memorized all the steps of his hands and his feet for El Cap. Like, he had it totally, totally memorized in his head. Like, you gotta watch that. That's a crazy.
Scotty
Well now, Alex Ponald, I think you lost orb.
Mystic Michaela
Yes.
Scotty
All right, the next one we have on the list is Alex Cooper.
Mystic Michaela
Yeah.
Scotty
Versus Alex Earl.
Mystic Michaela
Everyone's asking me about this. Okay. And I just don't think it's that deep. No, but we have to talk. I thought. Let's throw it in here.
Scotty
Okay.
Mystic Michaela
All right. So Alex Cooper is yellow, purple. Alex Earl is a tricolor. She's yellow, purple, blue. I was on Alix Earle's podcast.
Scotty
Correct.
Mystic Michaela
And she is like, I just. I'm biased. She is the nicest person. She made a video for my daughter. I was like, oh, my daughter's such a fan. She took my phone and made a video like, hi, Brianna.
Scotty
Yeah. And I will tell you, I think the most aura points you ever had was after you did the Alex Earle podcast. Yeah.
Mystic Michaela
You're so right.
Scotty
Because every one of Bri's friends looked at you with googly eyes.
Mystic Michaela
Yeah.
Scotty
And we're like, oh, my God, tell us everything. And they all knew that you were on the podcast. I think our nor our other listeners are. I don't know what the age of our average listener is. I say maybe 30s or something around there.
Mystic Michaela
Yeah.
Scotty
They. I don't know if they were impressed, but the kids.
Mystic Michaela
Oh, my God, I was the coolest kid. I mean, cooler than I've ever been in high school. Even when I was in high school,
Scotty
we walked into the Y, and all the teens that worked there were.
Mystic Michaela
Oh, my God. Yeah. They're like, I just. I heard you. I heard you on the podcast. Like, I was like the coolest person. If you were like 15, 18 to 18, you.
Scotty
That was your peak week.
Mystic Michaela
I was in life.
Scotty
In life.
Mystic Michaela
My aura points were so highest ever. Yes. Super big that week.
Scotty
Yeah. Okay.
Mystic Michaela
But anyways. But she's a very nice person. So anyway.
Scotty
Yeah. The color.
Mystic Michaela
So here's the feud. So I'll do the feud in aura color. My aura color.
Scotty
Okay.
Mystic Michaela
So Alex Cooper is yellow. Sorry, Yellow, purple. And she has the whole unwell network or whatever. And then she got Alex on her network with her podcast, and nobody knows what happened, but they kind of split up, and everybody was like, that seems a little awkward. Like, it felt awkward. We felt it. Okay. We felt it. Everybody felt it, but nobody ever talked about it. But I guess Alex Earle, according to Alex Cooper, has been, like, liking posts that say things about Alex Cooper that aren't nice or reposting things that are a little bit, like, according to Alex Cooper, passive aggressive. Okay. And so it's like, well, what's going on? You know? And because Alex Cooper, when she did release Alex Earle from the podcast network, I guess she did give her all her rights and she could still do her podcast under her own name and all that. So. So here's my thought. Alex Cooper is yellow, purple. They're very honest and they're very direct, and they will do things by the book, like what they think looks good on paper, like, that kind of thing. So I think Alex Cooper is like, okay, I don't want, for whatever reason where this isn't working and I'm just gonna let you go and I'm gonna. And I. And it. In her mentality and her logic, I feel like she felt like she did the honorable thing logically. Like, here's this, here's this, here's this. But we're not going to be best friends, you know, and I'm not going to hold your hand through it. And I'm not going to. You know, sometimes yellows can get a little, especially when they're in business situations, they can be perceived as a bit cold.
Scotty
Okay.
Mystic Michaela
So I think Alex Cooper might have been perceived that way by Alex Earl a little bit like, all right, we're not going to be besties by, you know, and I'm probably not going to return a lot of tax or I'll take a long time or my system will go back to you instead. I don't know any of this. This is just what I. These are my examples.
Scotty
Okay?
Mystic Michaela
Now Alex Earl has the blue in there and she's tricolor. And I met her, she's very sweet and she's kind and she's like very emotional, you know, and I am too. So I get it, you know, and so it's kind of like I don't want to just like break up with you as a, you know, I want this to be, you know, give me a pat on the back. Like, let's keep the doors open. Like, let's be nice to each other. Like, let's not pretend we didn't even have a relationship ever, you know, or a friendship ever. And, and I can see Alex Earl being a little bit like feeling slighted and being like, hey, that's not cool, you know, and, and I can see, and I don't know if this is true, but I can see her kind of maybe reposting things or liking things in her way of being, like, well, yeah, because she wasn't that nice to me. She doesn't talk to me now. She's, you know, like that. I get it. Because like, I've been there. Like, I get it, you know, So I think it's not that deep. I think like if Alex and Alex sat down and just like held each other's hands and looked each other's eyes and just had a good hug out cry session, it would be fine. I just don't think it's that deep. I think it's just misinterpreted stuff without communication. That's happened. I mean, I'm sure there's business things and whatnot that might be I'm missing or not leaving out. But I think, like, that's the crux of it. Okay.
Scotty
I have a little bit of a take, too.
Mystic Michaela
Okay, go ahead.
Scotty
And this goes back to my people thinking they're better than other people. Okay, we'll do it. That angle. And I could be wrong on this, too, but. And I don't want to upset anyone here, because Alex Cooper, if you're listening, call your. Was it. Call her daddy. You know, invite us anytime. Or invite Mr. McCanna anytime. Alex Earl already invited us. Now, what about this? Take both yellows. Alex Earl.
Mystic Michaela
Yeah.
Scotty
Got. So she got big.
Mystic Michaela
She did.
Scotty
She got real big.
Mystic Michaela
Yeah.
Scotty
And maybe. And I don't want to knock Alex Cooper.
Mystic Michaela
Yeah.
Scotty
Maybe she got. And she has a big network. Huge network.
Mystic Michaela
Yes.
Scotty
Maybe she got a little too big for the network, and there. Maybe there were some bad feelings there because maybe Alex Earle realized she needed to spread her wings.
Mystic Michaela
Okay.
Scotty
You know, because Alex Cooper is made. Right. She's self made with her whole network of podcasts.
Mystic Michaela
Yeah.
Scotty
And then maybe Alex Earle got two big. To be on that network.
Mystic Michaela
Like, too popular.
Scotty
Too popular. Yeah. Too popular.
Mystic Michaela
Okay.
Scotty
But I love them both. I think they're both great.
Mystic Michaela
Like, I want to go and call her a daddy. That'd be so much fun.
Scotty
Yeah. So both great. I'd love to explain Michaela's advice. Work it out, sit it down, get your yellows going together.
Mystic Michaela
What you mean, you mean, though? I think there could be some. I see what you're saying. Like, some business dealings.
Scotty
Yeah. Yeah.
Mystic Michaela
Where it's like, I want a percentage and, no, I don't want to give you that percentage. Who knows? Like, kind of like little weird little things like that.
Scotty
Or maybe people were even saying, you know, if you stay under that umbrella. That's her umbrella.
Mystic Michaela
Yeah.
Scotty
Maybe you need your own umbrella, because
Mystic Michaela
then she's like, she's gonna take this and this and this.
Scotty
Yeah. Yeah. Which is, I think, a thing that could be worked out.
Mystic Michaela
Okay. I do, too.
Scotty
Yeah.
Mystic Michaela
Anyways, I don't know if that has to do with.
Scotty
I am Aura. I'm Aura treading here. You're treading just in case someone listens.
Mystic Michaela
I'm treading aura. Because you're admitting it.
Scotty
Yes.
Mystic Michaela
Which is aura. I don't know what that is. I don't know.
Scotty
Poorly. I got.
Mystic Michaela
I don't know.
Scotty
I got battle crops.
Mystic Michaela
Yeah.
Scotty
Okay, now, I put this one down. This was my.
Mystic Michaela
He just had to do this one,
Scotty
had to do this one.
Mystic Michaela
I have to share with you my skincare routine and it has been completely revolutionized. And this is all because of One skin. Now every morning and every evening, I use three products. I use the One Skin Face, the One Skin Eye, and the One Skin Lip peptide. And I will tell you, I have noticed such a difference in terms of my skin looking more hydrated, firmer. I've noticed it look more glowy. Also, the products themselves aren't greasy. They go on with ease. They're light, they feel good, and I love that. At the core of what they do is their patented OS1 peptide. This is the first ingredient proven to target senescent cells. This is a key driver of wrinkles, fine lines, and the loss of elasticity, all the signs of skin skin aging. And these results have been validated in four different peer reviewed clinical studies and they've been validated by me. I have been using this for almost three months now. And I can see such a difference in what my skin looked like before and what it looks like now. And born from over a decade of longevity research, OneSkin's OS1 peptide is proven to target the visible signs of aging, helping you unlock your healthiest skin now and as you age. For a limited time, try one skin with 15% off using code KYA at OneSkin CO. KYA. That's 15% off OneSkin CO with Code Kya. And after you purchase, they'll ask you where you heard about them. Please support our show and tell them
Scotty
we sent you Jack Nicholson. All right, all right. So you would have to be an older listener to know this one.
Mystic Michaela
Maybe the Shining.
Scotty
Yeah. Chining One Flew over the Cuckoo's Nest. Actually one of the books I did read in high school. Every other book I didn't, so I actually did read that one, but. And now today, you wouldn't know who he is. I bet you Gen Z would not even know who this guy is. They don't know who that is. They would know.
Mystic Michaela
Even kids don't know who that is.
Scotty
And the last movie he made, you'd be like, oh, that guy.
Mystic Michaela
Yeah.
Scotty
But when he was younger, this guy had aura.
Mystic Michaela
He had aura.
Scotty
This guy had aura when he was in those movies, you know, One Flew Over Kukunesa. Again, the guy had aura. This guy was just like, wow. And I think if you would have met him at that time, you would have, like, it would have oozed out of him.
Mystic Michaela
There's like creepy stuff coming out about him.
Scotty
Yeah, yeah. No, no, I, I, I'm not gonna say he's the greatest person on Earth or anything.
Mystic Michaela
Yeah. I don't think it means you're great.
Scotty
No, no. Yeah.
Mystic Michaela
I think it just means you have a presence.
Scotty
Yes, I think.
Mystic Michaela
Right.
Scotty
Yeah, he had. He had, like, a presence.
Mystic Michaela
Like, if you.
Scotty
When you think of, like, when the Oscars were big. Yeah, they're really, like, they're crap today, but, like, when they were actually.
Mystic Michaela
He was always in the front row.
Scotty
He was always in the. And he. You know, when people actually watch the officers, he was. He was like a star right there. He, like, oozed it out of him.
Mystic Michaela
Yes, yes, yes. He was authentically that way.
Scotty
Yeah. Just his mannerisms, his facial expressions, how he was. So I thought. And I think he's. I would have to guess he's green and purple.
Mystic Michaela
Yeah, he's green. Purple.
Scotty
Purple.
Mystic Michaela
Yeah. Well, now, we thought it would be interesting. Oh, wait, are we doing the. Which one do you want to do next?
Scotty
You want to do some historical figures?
Mystic Michaela
Okay. We thought it would be interesting. Scott's a history teacher, and we thought we would do historical. Do you have aura? And aura points in Aura Farming. But first, our daughter, who's 17 in high school right now, is also a history buff. And this is the text I sent her, literally, like, five minutes before we started taping. I said, which figure from history has aura?
Scotty
Okay. Who'd she say?
Mystic Michaela
And then also, why do you think John Adams had aura?
Scotty
Okay.
Mystic Michaela
Cause she loves John Adams.
Scotty
She does.
Mystic Michaela
John Adams has a fan. It's our kid Brianna.
Scotty
Right.
Mystic Michaela
Okay, so this is why, according to her, John Adams had aura.
Scotty
Okay.
Mystic Michaela
He didn't own slaves, and he kept his cool during the Quasi War with France and the XYZ affair.
Scotty
Ooh.
Mystic Michaela
And then she also wants to tell everybody that James Polk has aura.
Scotty
James Polk.
Mystic Michaela
Who's that? And he met with the king, like, in 1785. Like a boss. And Abigail Adams is a boss, too, by association.
Scotty
Wow. James Polk, he got us our. He got us our northern. He's a president. He got us our northern border. So we're like, if you look at where, you know, Washington State meets Canada, okay, that was like, James Polk.
Mystic Michaela
Yeah. Cool. You that aura. Because he met with the King.
Scotty
Yeah.
Mystic Michaela
To do it.
Scotty
54, 40 and fight. 54, 40 and fight, I think was his campaign slogan.
Mystic Michaela
Okay.
Scotty
Yeah. Like, to get that line of latitude.
Mystic Michaela
Okay. And what does it mean by James. John Adams kept his coat cool during the quasi.
Scotty
What? I mean, John Adams did have some scandal, but I think what she's Picking up with John Adams is like when you think of the American Revolution. And if you think of a guy who was really like, to the principles, I would say he had to be either red and blue or a Christmas tree guy.
Mystic Michaela
Yeah.
Scotty
I think he, to the core, really, truly believed in the principles of the revolution.
Mystic Michaela
Okay.
Scotty
And I think he stuck to that. Maybe when he became president, maybe. I don't know if that dissipated a little bit.
Mystic Michaela
Yeah.
Scotty
But I think when he was, you know, running, you know, one of the leaders of the revolution.
Mystic Michaela
Okay.
Scotty
And you know, in the Continental Congress and all that, I think he really held to those principles. I think he had aura. I think a lot of people didn't like him though.
Mystic Michaela
Right.
Scotty
I think he might have had too much aura at times.
Mystic Michaela
Okay.
Scotty
And maybe he did aura farm a little bit. He was like long winded and talk a lot. I don't know.
Mystic Michaela
All right.
Scotty
Cool character in history.
Mystic Michaela
All right, so there you go.
Scotty
All right.
Mystic Michaela
And then we have. What's his name? Napoleon. I was gonna call him Neapolitan. Yeah. All right, now what about Napoleon?
Scotty
I want to preface this. I'm gonna do a couple of historical things.
Mystic Michaela
Okay.
Scotty
Yeah. And I want to preface this, that these. It doesn't have to. There weren't good guys. They're not. Doesn't mean they were good people.
Mystic Michaela
Right.
Scotty
I'm just saying that they had.
Mystic Michaela
Right.
Scotty
So this is why I think Napoleon had aura. First of all, they, you know, they. They always say he has like the short man syndrome.
Mystic Michaela
Yes.
Scotty
So for a little guy, but he's probably average height for the. For the time. So this is a guy that, you know, he became the emperor of France.
Mystic Michaela
Right.
Scotty
He ravaged Europe, can took it all over. Right. Control all of Europe from Spain to invading Russia and everything in between. Italy, you know, Scandinavia. This guy was the ruler, Right. He had put the rest of Europe in despair.
Mystic Michaela
Okay.
Scotty
Okay, so you would. So if you did that right, you would think all the leaders would hate him and everything, right?
Mystic Michaela
Yeah.
Scotty
Okay. So he. He finally, you know, he goes into Russia. He's got a big blunder. I know I'm going a little bit too much history here. But he's got a retreat from Russia.
Mystic Michaela
Right.
Scotty
And then the European nations finally realize, okay, we got him at a weak point because his grand army just got annihilated in Russia. But more from the elements than anything else, the winters. And now we could attack him. So Austria, Prussia, Russia, Sweden, all these countries came together and to fight France, just France, just France in the battle of nations.
Mystic Michaela
Okay.
Scotty
And they finally defeated Napoleon.
Mystic Michaela
Okay.
Scotty
Okay. So now what would you think if you. This guy had just, you know, just destroyed Europe for almost, like a decade.
Mystic Michaela
Right.
Scotty
And he lost and you captured him.
Mystic Michaela
Oh, they captured him.
Scotty
Yeah. He's captured.
Mystic Michaela
Okay.
Scotty
What would you do with this guy
Mystic Michaela
when they didn't kill him?
Scotty
You'd kill him right away, right?
Mystic Michaela
Yeah.
Scotty
You know, you just shoot him.
Mystic Michaela
Yeah.
Scotty
Right on the spot. We don't want this guy ever, ever to be anything again.
Mystic Michaela
Yeah, actually, they didn't. Why?
Scotty
They. Well, that's what I'm saying. I think he had this. Why? I think he had aura.
Mystic Michaela
He had aura.
Scotty
They exiled him to a nice cushy island called Elba.
Mystic Michaela
Okay.
Scotty
He kept his titles. They still called him Emperor. Why? That's what I'm saying.
Mystic Michaela
There's no, like, historical reason, like, he didn't know somebody or, like, what?
Scotty
No. Well, you know, people of France could have still said, you're the emperor.
Mystic Michaela
Right.
Scotty
He was their emperor. But why would the Russians and the Austrians and the Prussians.
Mystic Michaela
Maybe he was just very, like, cool.
Scotty
Yeah, well, that's what I'm saying.
Mystic Michaela
He must have something likable or something.
Scotty
Right? So. So what is it? Okay, so you'd think, all right, we got. This is like Vampire Diaries, you know, when people. They have a chance to kill someone and they never do.
Mystic Michaela
Yes. We're on season seven, by the way.
Scotty
So it was like, all right, why don't you just kill them right then and there?
Mystic Michaela
Yeah.
Scotty
They don't kill him. Guess what he does.
Mystic Michaela
What?
Scotty
He escapes. What?
Mystic Michaela
Yeah.
Scotty
They didn't even put him far away like you'd think. Okay, fine. We're gonna put him on the most
Mystic Michaela
remote island we can find, like Siberia or something.
Scotty
Elba was pretty close to Europe. He escapes, gets back to France.
Mystic Michaela
Okay.
Scotty
Gets his army back.
Mystic Michaela
What?
Scotty
Yep. And wages one, one massive last battle.
Mystic Michaela
Okay?
Scotty
So escapes from Elba. He's 100 days after the.
Mystic Michaela
Only a hundred days later.
Scotty
100 days later.
Mystic Michaela
Wow.
Scotty
He's got a huge French army ready to go again. And then. And they fight it out in Belgium. Battle of Waterloo.
Mystic Michaela
Oh, yeah.
Scotty
And, you know, same England, you know, Russia. They all show up again.
Mystic Michaela
They're like, show up again? Yeah.
Scotty
Ken, with this guy. They defeat him at the Battle of Waterloo.
Mystic Michaela
Yeah.
Scotty
And. Okay, what, do you think they would do it?
Mystic Michaela
They thought they'd kill him.
Scotty
You'd think they'd kill him. Right, Right. You're never gonna do this again to us.
Mystic Michaela
Right?
Scotty
We're going to kill you now.
Mystic Michaela
Right.
Scotty
No. What? They exile him again, to St. Helena, an island a little further away with less amenities because Elba had like a nice. All these amenities, like a palace and Elba, But Saint hello was like kind of like a shack.
Mystic Michaela
Okay.
Scotty
So they kind of downgraded him.
Mystic Michaela
All right.
Scotty
We got to send you further away.
Mystic Michaela
Right.
Scotty
But they didn't kill him. And they still, you know.
Mystic Michaela
He did. He stayed there.
Scotty
Yeah. Until he died. They believe he died of stomach cancer. You know how he always had his hand, like, in his shirt? An image of him, as always, has like the hand in his pot, like.
Mystic Michaela
Yeah, yeah.
Scotty
Across his stomach. The theory is that he had stomach cancer and that's why he always did that. I don't know if that's true or not.
Mystic Michaela
God. But interesting.
Scotty
They think he died of stomach cancer. I don't know if it's 100%.
Mystic Michaela
That's a bad one.
Scotty
Yeah. So a guy like that.
Mystic Michaela
Yeah.
Scotty
Although he, you know, destroyed Europe and had them at war for so many years, there was still something about him that they respected.
Mystic Michaela
He must have had aura.
Scotty
He had aura. You know, I think it was probably more, to answer your question that you were asking me earlier, I think it's probably more the way he conducted himself on the battlefield.
Mystic Michaela
Okay.
Scotty
The way he waged war. It was very by the book.
Mystic Michaela
Okay.
Scotty
It was. It wasn't underhanded. It was, I'm going to beat you in a fair pitched fight.
Mystic Michaela
So they had respect.
Scotty
I think they had respect.
Mystic Michaela
Way of doing things.
Scotty
Correct.
Mystic Michaela
Okay.
Scotty
Yep.
Mystic Michaela
Interesting.

Mystic Michaela
Who do you got next?
Scotty
I'll do a couple more.
Mystic Michaela
Yeah.
Scotty
All right. Andrew Jackson. Now, I. First of all, this is a. He's not a nice person. Very bad, man. Very bad.
Mystic Michaela
That's, like, Bree's least favorite.
Scotty
Yeah. He and I can understand why.
Mystic Michaela
Yeah.
Scotty
We all know about the Trail of Tears.
Mystic Michaela
Not everybody knows that.
Scotty
Well, yeah, he sent, basically, the Cherokees to their death.
Mystic Michaela
Yeah.
Scotty
On the Trail of Tears to find the courts. But this guy definitely did have aura about him. Old Hickory was his nickname. He really was, like, kind of the first president to campaign. Like. Like, when we think of campaigns, he's aura farming. He was Ora farming.
Mystic Michaela
This guy was.
Scotty
And he had this whole image of himself that, you know, I'm this guy. I fought in the War of 1812. I did this, I did that. He. You know, he had a bullet in him. He had, like.
Mystic Michaela
He.
Scotty
He liked to fight in duels. You know, where you just line up and you shoot guns. That. Yeah, I think he was in over 100 duels, they say. I don't know if that's the lore. Maybe he wasn't a lot of duels, but I don't know if it was a hundred.
Mystic Michaela
Okay.
Scotty
One. One. He got shot in. That's why he had, like, a bullet in him.
Mystic Michaela
Stayed there.
Scotty
Yeah.
Mystic Michaela
Okay.
Scotty
Then there was one time someone was going to assassinate him, and the gun misfired, and then he just took his cane and just started beating the crap out of the guy.
Mystic Michaela
Oh, really?
Scotty
Yeah. So he had, like, a lot of lore.
Mystic Michaela
He had lore.
Scotty
Lore.
Mystic Michaela
The kids always say that.
Scotty
Lore. Painting aura. Again, not a good guy. I'm not saying he's a good guy.
Mystic Michaela
No.
Scotty
You know, he defied the courts. You know, the court said, you can't do that. And he's like, all right, you're gonna stop me. What is the Supreme Court gonna do? They had no army.
Mystic Michaela
Sounds very familiar.
Scotty
It does sound very familiar.
Mystic Michaela
Right? Yeah.
Scotty
A lot of people do compare him to the current president. Yeah. So there was something about him. Again, I'm not giving him a positive spin here.
Mystic Michaela
No, no, but he had aura.
Scotty
But he had aura.
Mystic Michaela
That's interesting. And lore.
Scotty
And even money. Like, he hated money. The Funniest part is, like, he hated money, but he's on the $20 bill. He tried. He just tried to. He created the panic of 1837, which basically set us into a, you know, depression, recession.
Mystic Michaela
Okay.
Scotty
Because he didn't like money, and he wanted to get rid of the bank of the United States, bring everything to, like, go. I don't know what he was trying to do, but it didn't work. But he was. He was defiant.
Mystic Michaela
He was defiant. Okay. He's a defiant aura.
Scotty
Yeah.
Mystic Michaela
All right.
Scotty
But again, I just want to make sure. I'm not a fan of Jackson. Please. I know what he did to the Native Americans, and that is so awful.
Mystic Michaela
But aura can. Aura can. How do I put it? Yeah. Like, I think the way Gen Z uses it, it's supposed to be kind of like a positive thing, but it. But it can be just like someone's presence, I think, too, is another way they use it.
Scotty
All right. And the last one I put down here, you know, Jumanji style, Genghis Khangis Khan.
Mystic Michaela
I only know him from night at the museum.
Scotty
Oh, right. Aaron's got the aura raised.
Mystic Michaela
Yeah, he had aura.
Scotty
You know, he was the one that brought the Mongol Empire. Like, Mongol Empire brought them, you know, fought off the Chinese, brought them back. But the reason why I put him down as Oro is because apparently one out of every 200 men could trace their lineage, really, back to Genghis Khan.
Mystic Michaela
He had that many kids?
Scotty
Yeah, Well, I guess so. The claim is that he had over 500 lady friends.
Mystic Michaela
Oh, my God.
Scotty
I think like, five or six serious lady friends.
Mystic Michaela
Okay.
Scotty
But over, like, 500 something total lady friends and that.
Mystic Michaela
Like, that many kids. I guess.
Scotty
I guess you. I mean, that's, like, constant. Like, he was just.
Mystic Michaela
He was. This is, like, all day long.
Scotty
Yeah.
Mystic Michaela
To get, like. What was he. How did he have time to do anything?
Scotty
I know. To get, like, one, like, almost 1% of the world's population to your genes.
Mystic Michaela
That is weird.
Scotty
You got to be. Yeah. When did he have the time?
Mystic Michaela
Yeah.
Scotty
So I guess he must have had a lot of aura.
Mystic Michaela
Yeah.
Scotty
To be able to do this.
Mystic Michaela
Well, I mean, I don't know if those women had choices. Yeah.
Scotty
Right.
Mystic Michaela
But he definitely was, like, kid maxing.
Scotty
Right, Right.
Mystic Michaela
Something maxing. Jumanji maxing. Yeah.
Scotty
All right.
Mystic Michaela
We can't just leave it there.
Scotty
Yeah, we can.
Mystic Michaela
Oh, we can. This was the most cringiest episode we've ever done for any Gen Z or Gen Alphas that had to endure this. Sorry. I won't be doing it again. But this podcast is for you and about you, and we're so glad you spent some time with us today.
Episode 317: Aura Points & Aura Farming, Gen Z Aura Terminology Explained
Date: April 23, 2026
Host: Mystic Michaela | Co-host: Scotty
In this episode, Mystic Michaela and Scotty dive into the emergence of “aura” as a pop culture term among Gen Z, exploring what “aura” means for this generation, the concepts of “aura points,” and “aura farming.” Michaela compares Gen Z’s ideas to her own aura expertise, explains how authenticity and presence are perceived energetically, and applies these ideas to celebrities, influencers, and even historical figures. The discussion is light-hearted, self-aware, and full of banter, with plenty of real-life and historical examples.
Looks-maxing: Telling your friends to dress casual, but showing up dressed up (14:21).
Mystique farming: Deliberately being mysterious.
Class clown farming: Doing outrageous things for laughs (Scotty’s examples from high school).
Key insight: Genuine aura comes from not caring about gaining or losing points, or whether you’re farming—just being yourself. (14:56–15:33)
End of summary. This episode delivered a lighthearted but insightful take on how spiritual energy and Gen Z language overlap, with plenty of real-life and historical context for listeners of all ages.
