Josh
Yeah.
Andy
The fact that they could have used CGI on everything else in the movie Green Goblin, him flying through the sky, but they're like, no, we're going to do 220 takes of this.
Josh
It's insane.
Andy
It's crazy.
Josh
I mean it's cool. But everyone thought it was fake, so it wasn't. Until they're like, no, we really did that. Like, oh wow, that's cool.
Andy
Like 25 years later, Toby's like, finally. Toby. That'd be no hate. I don't want to hate name shame. But that'd be a tough name to grow up with, I think.
Josh
Toby.
Andy
Toby.
Lily
I think it's kind of cool.
Josh
Yo, Toby. Especially Keith. Toby Mack. Toby the tiger.
Andy
I feel like it would just call me tubby if I my name was Toby. They would just call me.
Drew
You're projecting.
Josh
Yes.
Andy
Yeah, maybe I am. Shout out all the Toby's out there that aren't to be any of you.
Josh
Are we still love you, Tobias. Is that what it's short for?
Andy
I think. I don't know. I think people just named Toby. Maybe not.
Josh
There's no way.
Andy
Sure. I mean, I guess maybe. Maybe that's the office of me.
Josh
This is Toby. There's no way. Tobias is a pretty cool name.
Andy
What do you think of when you hear the word Tobias?
Josh
Tobias. Amish people.
Andy
I think of rested development. That was the blue guy.
Josh
Oh, right.
Drew
He showers in his jorts.
Josh
Amish people.
Andy
What does he call that? He calls himself like. He's like, well, you're one of us. Oh man. Can't remember Dang it. Someone's gonna be in the comments. Like, obviously, it's this a thespian.

Drew
Not my Dumbledore, but do you think they killed.
Andy
Do you think they. They killed the pope so that they make more money on that film?
Drew
When did that movie come out?
Andy

Drew
Really appropriate timing.
Andy
Yeah. It's up for an Oscar.
Josh
I thought they already did the Oscars.
Andy
They did. I didn't know if they won.
Josh
I thought I got an Oscar.

Lily
I may have jumped the gun on thinking we were gonna move into another segment with the reverb.
Josh
We Might as well.
Lily
Let's do it.
Josh
Do you know a song?
Andy
That's only if you want a song.
Drew
I do want a song.
Andy
What if she says no? One day.
Josh
Then we will listen to her.
Andy
Because we respect women.
Josh
Yes.
Andy
Women. Women.
Josh
It's probably not picking up in that video.
Lily
Or just yelling.
Andy
You don't think?
Lily
I don't know.
Andy
Surely it is. That was kind of a cool bird echo.
Drew
Sounds like we're in a cave.
Andy
Yeah, it does. All right, here we go.
Josh
We just thing. We'll think about something.
Andy
We'll think about something.
Lily
That funny.
Drew
Is it an accident?
Josh
Yes.
Drew
Hilarious.
Josh
Speech impediment.
Andy
Funny.
Drew
No, it's not. It meant.
Josh
That is what she meant.
Andy
When someone come up to her with a speech impediment, they would stutter or, like, lisp or something. She would laugh at them. And then she'd be like, wait a minute. Was that real? Yes. Oh, I'm so sorry.
Josh
All right, let's see what we got.
Andy
All right.
Josh
We have no pope today. The chair is cold and bare the white smoke fades to gray the keys just sit and stare we see his.
Andy
Robe of white the halls are echoing But I don't feel quite right. With choirs that used to sing.
Josh
Where.
Andy
Is my pope now?
Josh
My sweet Jorge? Everything I love from Argentina fades away.
Andy
The morrow's chipped and worn the ring has lost its glow the people cry and mourn we bury what we know. But Jorge, he stood strong with his big white pointy hat. I've loved him all along. You've left me feeling fat. But Jorge had it all. Five foot eight. Impure. The papacy will fall. Adios, signor.
Drew
Wow. Wow? Was his name really Jorge?
Josh
Yeah.
Drew
Wow.
Josh
Rest in peace, Jorge.
Andy
We love you, Jorge. And good luck to the next pope.
Drew
You know how they all have, like, a list of names?
Andy
Yeah.
Drew
To pick.
Andy
Yeah.
Drew
We should. This is terrible.
Andy
What?
Drew
Because they're not dogs. But we shouldn't name our dogs after them.
Josh
After the popes?
Drew
Yeah. All the names of the popes.
Andy
That's how we are. That's how white people honor one another.
Drew
It is to me. It's. It's a gift. It's a kindness.
Andy
Absolutely. I think it's a. I mean, I hope you guys know if any one of you dies untimely. And I will be naming a dog after you.
Josh
Thank you.
Andy
Absolutely.
Lily
I don't know if you can use my name, though, because it'll seem a little weird coming from you.
Drew
He'll call him Drew.
Andy
I'm Drew.
Lily
That'll work.
Andy
That'll work. Beat all my dogs all the time. Get out of here. Lily, sit.
Lily
Josh.
Andy
Bad boy.
Drew
Jane. I had a boyfriend in middle school.
Josh
Ew. What?
Andy
Oh, no.
Josh
I was just finding out about this.
Drew
We had been dating for a while, and I discovered one time by going over to visit his family, that he had a dog named Lily. And he had never told me about it.
Lily
Shoo.
Andy
On purpose, I guess.
Drew
Maybe he was embarrassed.
Andy
How young was this dog?
Lily
And when did he get the dog?
Drew
Yeah, it was old.
Andy
Okay, okay.
Drew
It wasn't after me.
Josh
Well, speaking of a female dog named Lily.
Andy
That's Rufus. But for some reason, our son likes to call her Lily. It's weird.
Drew
Yikes.
Josh
Thank you.
Lily
Yeah, that was good.
Andy
What'd you say?
Josh
I said, speaking of a female dog named Lily.
Drew
Watch it.
Josh
We have a question.
Drew
Joshua.
Andy
That was pretty good, dude. Hey, Whoa, whoa, whoa. Hey. Whoa. That was way over the line. Do you know how much.
Drew
This is my yellow.
Andy
This is my yellow Power Ranger. This is a collectible.
Lily
You just got in a car wreck. I apologize.
Andy
Just a Weeze, if anything was. I do what's at stake.
Josh
Golly, now I'm sweating. We have a question.
Drew
I'm listening.
Josh
And unfortunately, Lil, again, we don't come up with these questions.
Andy
We can't.
Josh
We can't.
Andy
That's the rules.
Josh
We said they are sent in by the audience. And this question is for you, Lil.
Drew
All right.
Josh
Today'S question, sent in by a viewer. One of you. Lily, where were you?
Drew
When?
Josh
Where were you today?
Andy
I think you know what we're talking about.
Josh
Where were you, Lily?
Drew
Three thousand, 911.
Andy
Well, we weren't gonna ask that, but now we have questions.
Josh
Where were you April 21, 2025?
Drew
I don't know. Look, when was that?
Andy
Yeah, let her come up with an alibi real quick.
Drew
Monday.
Andy
Where were you Monday?
Drew
Easter Monday. I went to the park in Umatilla with the girls. We played for an hour.
Andy
Just the girls?
Drew
Mm.
Andy
Anybody else see there?
Drew
Yeah, a lot of people. There were a lot of people at the park. It's a popular park. There was another little girl named Lily there, right?
Andy
Probably another dog there, too, huh?
Josh
So made up. April 21st was the day we lost Jorge. You were at the park, huh?
Drew
I didn't know yet. Yeah, you told me already.
Andy
What's the name of the park?
Drew
I don't know. You? Matilda Recreational center or something like that. It's by Sensational Farm.
Josh
Was it maybe the Vatican Park?
Drew
No.
Andy
Are you sure?
Josh
Because we have some pretty.
Drew
Oh, my gosh.
Josh
Damning evidence. Is that a Perfect way to say. Can you say that and remember that?
Andy
Yeah. But whoa.
Josh
Because it's not a cuss word.
Drew
Pretty darning evidence.
Josh
Pretty darning evidence.
Andy
Yeah. That we got sent to us by this viewer who also said in the question. And we're scared, Lil. To be honest, to be quite frank, we're terrified.
Josh
Because I'm terrified.
Andy
I'm terrified. As. As a friend, can you explain this?
Josh
This is you standing in the park of the Vatican.
Andy
Send it to the chat so she.
Josh
Could see it with a bottle.
Drew
Why is that funny that says so big? Why'd you guys edit my head so big?
Josh
I don't know why she's laughing.
Andy
First of all. I. I mean, your head's always been that big.
Josh
You're holding a bottle that says Pope poison.
Andy
What? Lily, why would you be holding that?
Drew
Why do I look like a.
Josh
So where were you on April 21? Apparently, according to the date at the bottom of the picture, it's dated 4, 21, 2025.
Andy
Well, you can't fake that.
Josh
The day that we lost Jorge, holding a bottle of poison.
Andy
Pope poison.
Josh
Pope poison.
Drew
This is the scariest picture ever.
Josh
You're telling me.
Andy
Because this says a lot about you.
Josh
This is a lot about you. And I don't know how you're gonna get out of this one. Don't know that. Hello.
Andy
I mean, what about your life? What about your future? What about your kids, Lil?
Drew
Yeah, what about the kids?
Andy
The fact that you haven't even have to say that out loud.
Josh
We weren't even accusing you of that.
Drew
He died of natural causes. He was saying sick.
Andy
We were just trying to figure out why you were taking a really, like, oddly timed photo.
Josh
We never accused you of killing the pope. We were just asking where you were, and it seemed like you were in the Vatican. We never, ever accused you of killing.
Drew
That's what you were suggesting.
Andy
That's who you're.
Josh
You're projecting now, Lil.
Andy
Us.
Josh
Because we would never suggest that you're my. You're my wife.
Andy
Us.
Josh
That makes me sick that you would think that I would think that. I'm just confused by this picture that's clearly dated 421 2025, holding a bottle of Pope poison in the Vatican. But I would never suggest that you would do it.
Andy
No. But not. So you brought it up. And now. Now I'm wondering, not only does she have a hand in this, but in 911 as well?
Josh
Yeah, because she seems suspicious about that as well.
Andy
Right off the. Right out the gate, right off the bat.
Josh
Right off the plane.
Andy
What?
Drew
Look how ginormous they made my hand.
Andy
Who is who? Who is that? What are you talking about?
Josh
Well, I guess you guys heard it here first. Lily, she thinks this is funny, which is sad. Yeah, she killed the pope. Did I say Mitchell?
Andy

Andy
You wouldn't like it.
Drew
My mom has been sending me the thumbnails, and she's like, who do I need to kill? Because you guys make me look like a monster.
Josh
That you make, though.
Andy
Well, first of all, not all of them are you, Andrew. Not all of them. We've had. We've had some. Some terrible thumbnail faces grabs, but that's fine. That's part of it.
Drew
Can I tell you something?
Andy
Supposed to be expressive.
Drew
Expressive I discovered about this shirt. The lady that sent it to me made this shirt. It's not a hand me down. She made it.
Andy
Yeah. That's why I couldn't believe you would wear it to something so horrendous.
Josh
We also mean no disrespect about the pope thing.
Andy
We just know time has passed and people die, man. It's unfortunate.
Josh
And we grieve through humor.
Andy
That is a moking kepinism. Yes, that's what I was gonna say.
Josh
Yes.
Drew
Did you hear Andy say to be honest?
Josh
Yeah.
Drew
So he said, right.
Josh
And Lily, just making fun of you.
Andy
Murder people and you just try to make fun of my speech impediment. Go for it.
Josh
You ready for this? These are some of the popes in the runnings.
Andy
Okay.
Josh
This last night. And there's a name of one of these or cardinals in the running for becoming pope. Yeah, there's a name and just list. You'll know it when you hear it.
Andy
Perfect.
Drew
Cardinal Luis Tagley from the Philippines is a front runner to be the first Asian pope referred to as the Pope Francis of Asia, with a heavy focus on social justice and caring for the poor. Italian cardinal Pietro Perolin is 70. He served as Francis's secretary of State. But he lacks pastoral experience. Another Italian cardinal, Pierre Batista Pizzabala, is also on the short list. At 60, he's lived for the last three decades.
Andy
In the middle Piano Pizza Bali from Italy.
Josh
Pizza Bala.
Andy
Dude, there was Batista in there. That's kind of cool. Very good.
Drew
Secretary of State. But he one more time experience. Another Italian cardinal, Pierre Batista Pizza Ball.
Andy

Josh
I'm like that most Italian name for real.
Andy

Josh
So we did a live YouTube live emergency. This comes out a week ago.
Andy
Yeah.
Josh
And it was great. We had a lot of fun.
Andy
Ton of fun. We have, like. Yeah. A ton of viewers in it. Just engaging, asking questions. Yeah, it was crazy. It was nice to stay focused on, like, basically one thing the whole time. Yeah.
Josh
Yeah.
Andy
Which is what we'll probably utilize that for in the future sometimes. Maybe.
Josh
Definitely. And we had some weird people are calling the demon glitch.
Andy
Yeah, dude, that was terrifying.
Josh
So if you guys haven't seen the live. It's on our YouTube. It's called emergency episode number two.
Lily
I think if you back up to, like, 25 minutes.
Josh
Yeah, I think it was around, like 25 or 28 minutes.
Andy
Yeah.
Josh
And we were talking about AI potentially being demon possessed because it was. I was talking about my AI was just saying weird answers, and then I just completely glitched out. You did, like on. Yeah, on the video. And I was like, clit and clit and clit and it goes.
Drew
That's good.
Andy
It was six times. Each time. That was a crazy thing.
Josh
Yeah. And then you were making.
Lily
It was six times each time.
Andy
That's what they said.
Lily
And how many times did it glitch?
Andy
Three times.
Lily
So how many glitches?
Andy
I mean, 18, 200,000.
Josh
But then Andy was making fun of the Earl. You're laughing at it and then you Glitched out laughing about what just happened with the whole demon possession thing.
Andy
Yeah.
Josh
So that was fun. That was really cool.
Andy
And we didn't know about it until Lily called us in the middle of the live chat and she's like, everyone's freaking out and this is a big deal.
Drew
Yeah. We all heard.
Josh
So creepy.
Andy
What?
Drew
Everybody was like, what's happening? It was crazy.
Josh
It was nuts. And that one, in those like two minutes, we received like 1200 comments in the live chat. It was like, it was crazy to read it.
Drew
Yeah.
Andy
People were driving when it was happening too. It was wrecked.
Josh
Yeah.
Andy
So scary.
Josh
But we're definitely gonna try to do more.
Andy
That was so much fun.
Josh
But the other night, speaking of scary stuff, this was scary.
Andy
What happened?
Josh
So I got ring for my house, you know.
Andy
Yeah.
Drew
Oh my gosh.
Josh
I can't even, you know, the neighborhood alert.
Drew
Think about this.
Josh
You ever get the neighborhood alert? So I woke up at 4:42 in the morning and saw I had two neighborhood alerts from 2:00 clock in the morning. And the first one said loud knocks on our window. Tonight, about 2:15am we were awakened to what sounded like a loud knock. And then another neighbor, because I looked it up, another neighbor that probably lived, I don't know, couple miles away.
Andy
Yeah.
Josh
They said like at the same time, around the same time. They said anyone hearing random humming from a female voice at this hour checked cameras and saw nothing.
Andy
Female humming?
Josh
Yeah. And then I'm like, immediately I'm creeped out.
Andy
I'm just. What?
Josh
Yeah, this is 2:00 clock in the morning. I go back and look at the person that said the knocking thing. Because they do like follow ups in the comments and stuff.
Andy
Yeah.
Josh
And they said I just saw that alert from the humming thing. And they said, I didn't want to say it because I thought I would sound crazy, but it sounded like a female voice humming around my. Outside of my house, like at the windows.
Andy
That's so scary.
Josh
Yeah.
Andy
I don't want that. No, that's not a horror movie, dude.
Lily
Did you figure it out?
Josh
No, they never figured it out.
Lily
There were multiple reports in my sector too.
Josh
Oh, really?
Drew
Yeah.
Andy
Yeah.
Josh
Yeah.
Drew
What does that mean?
Josh
I don't know of a female humming.
Drew
Yeah, it's like no fractu, but a chick.
Andy
I. It reminds me of the Russian dancing lady. Oh, gosh. Dancing lady.
Josh
Serbian.
Andy
Oh, that one's creepy.
Josh
Yeah. So I don't know what that was about.
Andy
Yeah, that's super weird. I. I wonder what that could be. I wonder if there's Any correlation of stories of people hearing a woman humming? What are you doing out there, woman?
Drew
I don't want to look into it. I'm too scared.
Andy
Quit humming around my house. Do you have security lights?
Drew
We have ring cameras.
Josh
We have one screw.
Andy
Yeah, like, especially on that.
Josh
We have the back.
Andy
Your house just shows, like. Yeah, like just. Yeah, big one under the yard.
Josh
Yeah.
Andy
So anyone tries to get into the yard, like, it immediately would just hit him.
Drew
Oh, my gosh. You guys are scaring me. I was. I took a shower late last night, and it was like one of those, like, moments. You know that scary movie Psycho, where she gets, like, stabbed in the shower. I'm going, we're so vulnerable.
Andy
Yeah.
Josh
In the shower.
Drew
Well, in life generally. Jesus, come back. It's so scary.
Lily
I'm in the thread and it said this happened multiple times to me a couple years back off another street in the area. Someone else said it happened to them at 2 to around 2am but it was three to four very abrupt knocks. There's like a bunch of people who didn't want to call the cops for something that they heard and then went away. You know, it wasn't like an ongoing thing, but, yeah, multiple people in that and that thread.
Drew
What ends up happening to them?
Lily
Well, they buy ring cameras and talk to their neighbors about it, so that's where they are.
Andy
If you don't hum back, she takes your vocal cords in the night. That's what I've heard. That's what this is. This is what I've heard. This is a rumor. That's what. Yep.
Josh
Earth K talked about the same humming woman.
Andy
Yep.
Josh
Dang.
Drew
Dang.
Andy
She's out there, Gerald.
Drew
That's really good.
Josh
So, yeah, that was my scary story.
Andy
I don't like that at all.
Josh
I don't like it either. You know what? I don't like that.
Andy
I think that the most. I don't get scared very often, but I think the. The glitch thing scared me a little bit just because it was, like, so spooky. And the sound of it not. Not knowing what it was. And then we waited on that email and then we heard the recording of it.
Josh
Yeah, I. Yeah. Have I put it out of my head immediately and just thinking that it was nothing.
Andy
Cords, y'.
Lily
All.
Josh
I also haven't used ChatGPT since.
Lily
Y' all's reaction to the numbers was underwhelming.
Josh
I thought that the numbers.
Lily
Yeah.
Andy
What numbers?
Lily
Six. You said six glitches happened three times.
Andy
Well, yeah, I know. They are three sixes. Yeah.
Lily
Six. Six.
Andy
Six.
Drew
Don't say it.
Andy
Yeah, Six.
Drew
The. What was creepiest about it was the timing because you guys were literally on the subject of.
Josh
Yeah.
Drew
Technology. Being demon possessed.
Josh
And I was like, right now I'm just calling it a really crazy coincidence.
Andy
It's for sure that's never happened before.
Josh
That's never happened before.
Andy
But yet we've done lives before and it's never happened before.
Lily
Somebody went back through and said that we had. Every time we circled back to the topic is when another series of glitches would happen. They actually mentioned, like the thesis of the section we were talking with the timestamp.
Andy
So I don't know that that'll be studied one day.
Josh
I'm convinced when you're using Chat GBT that it's listening to you while you're typing.
Drew
Oh, yeah. I'm sure you signed some kind of agreement. It's listening to you out loud because.
Josh
I had it plugged into my computer. The audio with Chat GPT pulled up.
Andy
So interesting.
Drew
Funny. It was pulling a prank on you. Thinks it's funny. You're gonna log on next time. They're gonna be like, did you like that?
Andy
Could you imagine? Long time no see. You know what I could see?
Josh
Funny joke.
Andy
Right?
Drew
Our girls are going to be like adults and maybe we'll have grandchildren. And they're going to be like, I use ChatGPT for. They're going to use AI is going to be so integrated into their lives. We're going to be like, you know, it's from the devil.
Lily
Yeah.
Andy
For real.
Drew
We're literally going to be like these old people.
Andy
Yeah, 100%.
Josh
Well, since we're on the topic of AI, I mentioned it on the live, but now I want to dive deeper into it.
Andy
Let's dive deep.
Josh
Okay. The theory is that whatever powers that be and AI, they are purposely making words disappear.
Lily
Ew.
Josh
Yeah. And so I saw this. It's from the account ask Tuesday on TikTok. And I. I actually have used CHAT GPT since that incident because I was trying to ask it about this and. But as I was typing out. As I was typing out. Let me, let me back up first. So the theory is not the theory. What they say is happening is between October 2023 and February 2024, over 11,000 English nouns dropped in usage by more than 80%. So it's not slang or outdated terms. It's functional vocabulary. And so some of the examples that they gave were the word threshold, repetition, resolve. So those are some of the examples that they gave Terms connected to boundary setting, identity and memory recall. So AI flagged the terms, assuming it was a con or what was it? Content drift. But the, the rate of disappearance is too fast for culture. Basically. Like they're going away too fast. It's not leaving the culture. It's like they're purposely getting rid of these words or using the words on AI softwares. Interesting.
Andy
Yeah. What's the motive?
Josh
I guess what, I'm getting to it and it's creepy.
Drew
We're jumping again.
Josh
So apparently they look deeper into it and what they found was structural large scale neural feedback models now optimize for engagement by removing emotionally heavy terms that cause user hesitation. I know that was too smart for me to say.
Drew
So words that have a negative connotation in a way we associate it with something Negative.
Josh
Yeah.
Drew
Or charged.
Josh
Yeah.
Lily
Just bogs the quickness and the response.
Josh
But 1984, they, they said, what was it? That's not optimization, that's linguistic erosion. And once a word falls below 2% of network visibility, it triggers the vanishing word protocol. Reclassify it, downrank it, replace it, not delete it. Just less shown, less spoken. Until one day you reach for a word like integrity and it's no longer in your mouth or your feet or in your memory.
Andy
That's terrifying.
Josh
Yeah. And so I asked when I was typing this out, because I was asking about it and like I've not heard anything about these 11,000 words, whatever. And it was like super broad. And so I was typing, do you know anything about the term vanishing word protocol when it comes to AI or the Internet? And as I'm typing it said network error occurrence in my chatgpt just wouldn't stopped working.
Andy
Interesting. I'm like, dude, come on, they're rigging it, dude.
Josh
And then I put it back in like, I haven't heard that. Can you point me to where you did hear that so I can work backwards?
Drew
Is there a guy that's sweating on the other end going, override, override.
Josh
But what I found interesting was in the book 1984 by George Orwell explored the concept of eliminating words through the invention of Newspeak, the official language of the totalitarian regime. The idea was that by reducing the number of words in a language, the regime could limit the range of thought.
Drew
Yeah.
Josh
Essentially making certain ideas unthinkable.
Drew
Yeah. Literally.
Andy
Because our brain can't comprehend anything that we, you know, that's out of our reality.
Drew
Well. And you don't have language to articulate.
Andy
Yeah.
Drew
A certain emotion or a certain thought.
Josh
Yeah.
Andy
We are very limited language already. Yeah. Makes sense that they just like keep chipping away at it.
Josh
So Orwell's big idea was by eliminating words, you eliminate concepts. No, words for freedom. Then freedom itself becomes a foreign, even unthinkable idea.
Drew
Oh my gosh. This is what I've been saying. Literacy, the ability to, to be literate and articulate yourself opens the door for anything. You could do anything or be anyone. Words are everything.
Josh
Yeah.
Drew
This is so scary.
Josh
Yeah. Because, yeah, words, they're attached to feelings, they're attached to ideas. And so if you slowly eliminate words that are attached to concepts or ideas, then in not that long of like in a couple of generations, there's going to be kids that have no idea what certain things are because there's not even a word to it.
Andy
Yeah.
Lily
You know, and there's historic precedents for trying to control words. Words like, look at like the Protestant Reformation and how they were trying to control like scripture being accessible, like being just in Latin or original languages to the people's tongue. They didn't want that because if people had the power to know and to understand, then it was a threat to their power. So this has been done before.
Drew
Yeah. That's how they enslave people, is by taking away their literacy. And also women, like countries where women aren't allowed to learn how to read, it's to keep them behind.
Josh
Yeah. It's crazy. It's a terrifying thought.
Andy
Yeah.
Josh
It seems so far fetched. But like, if you do think about it, it's just like you can, it's slowly just taking away certain aspects of society to where one day your kids are just going to be like, I've never heard of that. What is.
Drew
Oh my gosh.
Andy
Yeah, everything's digital. All it takes is, I mean, a universal system dropping in some code and eliminating this type of language.
Lily
And there's.
Andy
And then because we're all learning from the web, so it's just, it's whatever they want to give us.
Josh
Yeah.
Lily
And there's like the dark way of looking at it, like where it's an intentional, like, you know, we're trying to eliminate things on purpose, but there's also like multiple languages don't have the same words. So the most efficient model is to like come up with a central shorthand across different, you know, ethnicities and languages and cultures. But by doing that, it's like food. You know, you can have a simple, you know, you can do it week in, week out. School cafeteria lunch. It's basic and it's terrible. Or you can have like vastness of cultural, you know, cuisine, like. Yeah, just because something's efficient doesn't make it best. But I don't know that AI models understand that. And that's like assuming that there isn't some evil overlord, like trying to diminish us.
Josh
Well, let's just play that there is. Okay. This overarching, you call it Illuminati, whatever.
Lily
Yeah.
Josh
Dark power trying to change the structure of which society thinks. The whole world thinks. China. Starting off with China, they have come out and said that by or starting September 1, 2025, AI will be mandatory in schools for children starting at 6 years old.
Drew
Oh my gosh.
Josh
So AI is going to start teaching the children of China and then the US. Several states in the US have passed bills mandating AI and course curriculum. South Korea, first country in the world to introduce AI textbooks nationwide. And in the UK, 60% of teachers are already using AI for work related tasks. That's from Dylan Page, Shout out, our favorite CIA member. Yeah. So if we're talking about AI is purposely, or whoever's controlling AI or whatever is purposely trying to eliminate words. There's been 11,000 well known nouns that are losing or that are being taken off of AI or they're not using those words in one year. And now we're going to start teaching our children from AI. They're not going to know these words.
Andy
Yeah. They're going to be learn exactly what they hope for, like what they plan.
Josh
Yeah.
Lily
And there's precedent for this too. Like we talked about. Was it the Rockefellers that had their hand in American education?
Josh
Yeah.
Lily
Right. So they're doing it again over there. The powers that be want to control education so that they can keep everybody in a mental cubicle moving in line in conformity to their agenda rather than being, you know, open minded, free thinkers.
Josh
In China. Yeah, in China, their excuses, they're trying to prepare the future that's going to be dominated by AI, which logically makes sense. Right, right. Like if AI is taking off and we know that this is the next leap in the technology. Industrial revolution, tech revolution, whatever, then it would make sense to teach the next generation about AI and how to use it. But if that's their primary source of education, then it will completely mold and manipulate the young minds.
Drew
You know, it's just so scary because we've had so many technology jumps in the course of the last hundred years or whatever, you know, and I feel like as a culture we have not even caught up to the impact that the Internet has had on the research. Like, what are the implications of someone growing up and not learning how to research or find out these questions for themselves.
Josh
Yeah.
Drew
You know, what does that do to our psychology?
Andy
The leaps between technological advances are getting smaller and smaller, like the spaces of time between each of it. And now we're not even able to look at a culture and see how it's affecting it in the long run. Like it's. It's going to be crazy 50 years from now to look back and look at all the whatever substances or chemicals that we allowed in our food.
Drew
Yeah.
Andy
All of this technological advancements that we're making and edits that they're doing to it. Like, we have. We have no way of knowing the impact.
Josh
That's why reading is.
Drew
Yeah.
Josh
Reading books.
Drew
Yeah.
Josh
Is very important.
Drew
Be in protest to what's happening by. By enforcing reading in your home and allowing your kids to develop a love for reading, like hard text and like real books and stuff like that. And finding these old words. They're going to be old words. That's why I'm so excited for this classical education because they focus on reading and logic and grammar and things that are apparently going to be extinct.
Lily
There's. There's even scriptural, like, references and how to combat stuff like this. I. I don't want to misquote him, but John Piper does a thing where he's talking about Sabbath and he's like, if you're in a particular line of work. So he's. He references like mental versus, like, physical. He's like, if. If you labor six days a week with your mind, Sabbath with your hands. And so the entire. The concept of like spending a portion of your week full in on a certain type of thing, but then taking that break away from it, I think is scriptural and I think is healthy, especially for parents who are trying to raise kids who will be competent in the future, but also not slaves to what the future looks like.
Josh
Yeah. I'm reading a book right now that was written in the 1970s and there's so many words. And I'm like, I have no idea what the word means.
Andy
Really?
Josh
Yeah. So I'm like looking it up. I'm like, oh, I think I knew that.
Andy
Yeah.
Josh
But it's just like, it's. You just forget it because you're not. It's not in front of your face all the time.
Andy
Totally. Yeah. That makes sense.
Josh
It's so important. Also, Lily uses really big words, especially with the girls.
Lily
I heard you saying something about that earlier. I want Like a list of the, the words. I need to start making a list.
Josh
Because I asked her something. What does that word mean?
Lily
I'm like, it's great.
Andy
Soap. Soap.
Drew
You know what soap means, Josh? Not familiar.
Josh
You said do the dishes. I don't know.
Drew
Foreign language.
Lily
That's how I felt my first week of Bible college because I came in as a third year and I'm sitting in, you know, classes where everyone's using like sanctification and propitiation. And I'm like Christianese, just nodding my head. And then immediately I actually got in trouble in a class. My professor was like on a rant, literally, like got angry and he was like, Mr. Saludez, I have no idea what you could possibly be doing on your computer right now. I haven't started giving notes. And I was like, I'm, I turned my computer around slowly, embarrassed as heck. And I was like, I'm looking up the word you just used. He apologized in front of the class. He was like, I'm sorry, you didn't deserve that. It's been a long day. It means this. I just like turned my computer back around. It just feeling everyone staring at me.
Drew
Oh no.
Josh
Well, how do you feel about like in colleges? Because I saw a video of this girl that was using AI for note taking.
Lily
I've seen this.
Josh
And the professor was yelling at the student saying, you can't do that.
Lily
I'm against that.
Josh
I mean, against what?
Lily
I think the professor was wrong.
Drew
Oh yeah, I agree with you because.
Lily
But, but so everyone's like, well, AI is going to write the papers and kids won't know stuff. Here's the thing. You can solve the entire problem by instead of doing papers, make the classroom like a hands on experience. Make kids articulate what they know. Like if they're communicating verbally, it doesn't matter what I wrote. If you can regurgitate. Oh yeah, I wrote, yeah, okay, cool. You're quoting the paper, then you know it.
Andy
And so also to be a teacher is to adapt and know your audience.
Lily
Yeah.
Andy
You're. If you're, you're saying I'm going to be a educator to these, this generation of college age kids, then guess what? That comes with everything that college age comes with.
Josh
Yeah.
Andy
And that's new technology, that's new habits, that's all that stuff. The kid wants to record a conversation, upload it to AI thing and actually sit there in class and just listen and not worry about all the notes so they can go back and look back. That's going to be Organized.
Josh
Yeah.
Andy
Not everyone has the same opportunities in high school or middle school or parents that push them to be good note takers, to listen well and they have to learn.
Josh
Terrible note takers.
Andy
It's a tool.
Josh
Yeah.
Andy
But if you're not using the tools, that's on you do it.
Drew
And that's what AI. That's one of the benefits of AI. I think that's what we're supposed to be using it for.
Josh
That's what's scary is that it has so many benefits.
Andy
There's give and take to everything.
Josh
Yeah. But there's so much danger involved with it as well.
Andy
But that's everything. That's the Internet. I mean, literally, there's so many bad things on the Internet. There's such terrible things with uses of our phones.
Drew
Oh, yeah.
Andy
I mean. I mean, everything is permissible, but not everything is beneficial. That's what the Bible says. So you can have a lot of it. It may be fine. But you know, what is it the best thing for you? And so I think there's that line. You just really have to know. I'm not willing to take this line even if it is going to help me, even if it's going to lead to something else.
Josh
This conversation in like 30 years, it's going to be like, yeah, people from like the 1940s talking about their kids reading comic books and how terrible.
Drew
We're the cavemen. We're the cavemen of this whole thing. But, I mean, there's gonna be a shift.
Andy
There's. They're gonna know when AI came into humanity. There will be a shift. Do you think?
Drew
Consider that. Okay, I'm listening to that book, Right. Hold on to your kids. I forget the guy that everybody listened to it. If you're a parent, it's like amazing. It's got some of the things I don't agree with, but Gabor Mate is the co author. He's all over TikTok right now. Gordon Newfield is the doctor and it talks about attachment between parent and child. But I'm on the subject right now. He did it afterward. It's at the end of the book. He uploaded it a couple years ago. But this book is from a while back talking about the digital age. And there was a rhetoric going around initially when, like the Internet came out and phones and technology and all that stuff that you could put in your pocket, cell phones, whatever. They were saying, you need to have your kid on this stuff regularly so that they can assimilate and they can learn and be on track with Their peers when it comes to technology education. And parents are like, this is good for my child. Right. And look at the impact now that it's having on our kids. It's ruining them. It's ruining their attention spans. They can't learn. They're angry. Have you seen the kids that are like, iPad kids and their parents, like, one day wake up and they're like, we gotta get rid of this iPad. Their teeth hurt. The kids are, like, having true withdrawals and their teeth are hurting. We have to. We had to get ahead of this.
Lily
My question, though, is AI is definitely speeding us up. Right. Like, we can sit through way more meetings, like, on a professional level. We can do, like, three meetings back to back because we know we don't have to retain it because AI's taken the notes.
Josh
Yeah.
Lily
And so the speed at which we're moving, I feel like technology is outpacing what the human mind. You talk about, like, dopamine depletion and, like, all these other things. And so I think we're getting to a place where AI moves faster than, like, I don't think we're going to evolve to a place where we keep up within the life cycle of this tech. Boom.
Josh
Yeah, that makes sense.
Lily
I think we're going to come to a place where, like, we're being efficient. We're getting more done than we've ever done. But you talk about the rise in depression. You talk about, you know, or you just.
Josh
Yeah, yeah, definitely, like, burnout. Complete dependency on this technology, too, because.
Andy
We can't keep up anymore, which crumbles if anything goes wrong. We have a big blackout. Yeah, we're done. So.
Josh
Yeah, yeah.
Andy
I mean, imagine. I mean, especially people who haven't developed their own, you know, just, you know, just ability to live a normal human life. And.
Lily
What are. What are some ways? Because we've all. We all use AI. Like, we've sped up our. Like, me and Andy cutting reels, you going burning through the podcast. Like, we're moving way faster than we did when we started the show.
Josh
Yeah.
Lily
Like, what are some practical ways? And I know there's a comedy podcast and I'm taking a serious turn. But, like, what are practical ways that you've found to combat, like, that level of burnout and that pace? For me, it's been like the woods. Like, I notice if I actually go and surf or go and fish or go in the woods, and I'm, like, looking out at a horizon. I remember the first time I went deer hunting last year, and I just sat the guy next to me was like my guide was like whispering and he was talking. And you know, every time it was just silent. Like, I'm not throwing shade, Riley. You're free to talk to me. When it was silent, I was looking out and I just was like, this is the deepest breath that I feel like I've taken.
Josh
Yeah.
Lily
In months. And so I think getting in nature and just looking out at the horizon with no tech in hand is like super healthy. Is there anything you guys have been doing that's like helped?
Josh
I mean, just reading yard work. Yeah, I'm like reading now.
Andy
Yeah.
Josh
For the first time a long time.
Drew
And you do yard work?
Josh
Yeah. Freaking love yard work.
Andy
Yeah. You got to disconnect. You have to. I love just hanging out with the girls, having fun, actually laughing, man. Like I'm just even realizing, like I'm seeing my girls smiles more. And Demi has such a full smile now. She's almost 10. So it's like there's no more gaps or anything. It's crazy to me. But it's stuff like that, like that's just like. You got to cling on to the realities of life and what God's given us. And yeah, we can enjoy a. We AI. We could enjoy our own work, whatever, but at the end of the day, we just have to have a complete hold on to what's true.
Lily
Yeah.
Andy
And man, it's getting so much harder and more difficult to realize people are falling for, you know, false stuff all the time. The truth is it's. It's muddying the waters a little bit, which is kind of tough.
Josh
I also do been really getting into like ballet and stuff.
Drew
Yeah.
Andy
Yeah, I know. You seem a lot more flexible.
Josh
Yeah.
Lily
I thought that was you. Yeah, I saw you.
Andy
What's your favorite pose?
Josh
Oh, just your typical nutcracker.
Andy
Oh, cool. Yeah, I love that. Dude, that's awesome. What's the point?
Josh
My mind was searching for any type.
Lily
I'm like, what's a ballet?
Andy
I only know the nutcracker pose. Yeah. Yeah. Well, it's very brave of you to do that, man. That's awesome.
Josh
Love the nutcracker.
Andy
Yeah, man, that's great.
Josh
Just. Yeah, it took months to master it, but yeah.
Andy
Speaking of nutcrackers though.
Josh
Yeah, we gotta.
Andy
Don't go anywhere.
Josh
Don't you ever do that again.
Andy
I alley ooped you.
Lily
Perfect.
Drew
See you later.
Andy
Alligator. Well, I went to sundaycoolswag.com, got me a shirt for me and my mom. It says see you later. It's really cool. Gotta check it out. It's Sunday. Sunday. Cool.
Josh
Sunday, Cool dot com. Sundaycoolswag dot com.
Andy
Is that it?
Josh
See you later, alligator. That's what your dad said. Thanks for watching the ad when he abandoned you.
Drew
Oh, my gosh.
Andy
Couldn't come up with anything, huh?
Lily
No.
Andy
Hit me below the belt.
Josh
All right.
Andy
And we're back.
Josh
Well, we just figured out that I accidentally kicked the cable to Lily's camera, so you guys know it by now. If it did work or didn't work.
Andy
But she's back now.
Drew
Here I am.
Josh
But now you can see her.
Drew
Is there a memory card in there?
Andy
No.
Drew
How do you guys do it? Memory cards.
Josh
Yep. SD cards. Speaking of SD cards and memory cards.
Andy
Yeah, I was actually gonna say that.
Josh
Memory cards are like the brains.
Andy
Yeah.
Josh
To a camera, sure. In our version of a memory card.
Andy
I'm with you.
Josh
Is our brains.
Andy
I'm catching up.
Josh
And if we want our memory card brain to work.
Andy
I'm with you.
Josh
We need the proper nutrients.
Andy
Almost.
Josh
Keep it going.
Andy
Yes.
Josh
Magic Mind.
Andy
Whoa.
Josh
Magic. My baby.
Andy
I have no idea where you were going with that.
Josh
We just got a package, literally, right now.
Lily
That's actually sick.
Drew
They're like jewels.
Josh
Look at that. And they got some new stuff. They got Magic Mind free, which is caffeine free. Magic Mine. Now their original Magic Mind and Magic Mind. Max. Yeah, baby.
Andy
Listen, you guys want to clear energy, you want something that's going to just clear your head of all the gunk and all the worry, all the stress. Listen, Magic Mind's where it's at. When I drink Magic Mind, my mind explodes with thoughts of creativity, of love, kindness. I don't know why you would want that.
Josh
Why wouldn't you want that?
Andy
Drink a Magic Mind today? Because it changed my life.
Josh
It says the Magic Mind, the new Max. It says our nano encapsulation process allows us to time release the additional caffeine over six to seven hours.
Andy
What? I thought it took at least twice as long.
Josh
No.
Drew
Sure.
Andy
Wow. I mean, twice as short. Yes.
Josh
Yeah.
Andy
Crazy.
Josh
Thanks. Magic Mind.
Andy
Magic Mind, you're the best.
Josh
So go to magicmind.com forward/ninja and use the code NINJA20 to receive a significant discount.
Lily
Oh, and you're Magic Me.
Andy
And drink with the ninjas.
Lily
Drink. I needed that before my road trip. That sounds perfect.
Josh
Thanks, Magic Mind.
Andy
Thank you.
Josh
Magic Mine. See that?
Andy
There's a trash can right there, buddy.
Drew
It's like, extended release. Magic Mind.
Josh
Oh.
Lily
I'm not happy about that camera.
Andy
I want to beat it up.
Drew
Wait. Throw it back to me.
Andy
You yelled at everyone.
Lily
She is on this camera, too, so we can.
Andy
Oh, yeah, we can just do whiting.
Lily
We can cut to her in the room.
Andy
Yeah.
Drew
Wait, give it to. Wait, wait.
Josh
You missed it.
Andy
She wants a second shot.
Josh
No, you lost your chance.
Drew
Give me another chance. If I make this, you have to be happy.
Josh
No swat.
Andy
Bad mood. Josh. Here he is.
Drew
I mean, this is to be double happy.
Andy
Double math. Oh, no. This is gonna be rough. Dang, this is gonna be real rough.
Josh
Do you know what time it is? Question corner.
Andy
Question corner. Question corner with Lily, where the questions are fresh on her mind.
Drew
So sad.
Lily
Not the high porn.
Drew
Okay.
Josh
Hi.
Lily
What high porn?
Josh
Hype porn.
Drew
I heard. I had to correct it in my head. Okay. All right. Everybody I consulted, I consulted our Discord.
Andy
What? Go, keep talking, for the love of almighty.
Drew
I just. I consulted our Discord Chat. Stop it.
Andy
You gotta push through.
Josh
I was just.
Andy
Done.
Josh
We're done.
Andy
We're done. We're over.
Drew
I consulted our Discord group through our Patreon. So if you're interested in chatting with.
Andy
Us, link in the Bio.
Drew
Go to patreon.comninjas. this is from J. Deadman is his username. If you were abducted. This is a hilarious question, if you think about it. If you were abducted by aliens, what tactic would you use to convince them to take you home? How are you pitching them to send you back?
Josh
I just pee and poop on myself.
Drew
They're expecting that, I guess. Yeah, I would.
Andy
I'd fall desperately in love with the leader. Yeah, I'd fall desperately in love. Like, it would be, like, as soon as I look up, like, after I'm getting probed, I, like, look back, I look him in the eyes, and it's like that dreamweaver, like, slow motion.
Josh
Yeah.
Andy
Yeah. Wayne's World, dude.
Drew
Yeah. So Wayne's World.
Andy
That's probably what I do.
Lily
They'd probably be trying to study you. So you got to do, like, you know, can't predict the next move. I just try to be as erratic and, like, weird as possible.
Drew
Yeah. Like you have rabies.
Josh
Yeah.
Lily
Like, they have. No. What is this? This is not. This is like, an outlier in our sample size. Like, we got to put that one back.
Drew
Yeah.
Josh
Like, pretend I'm, like, a furry and, like, act like a dog.
Andy
Yeah. Yeah. Or be way too happy to be there. Way too happy.
Josh
Guys, this is awesome.
Andy
I can't wait to stay forever here with you. Right here, always by your side.
Josh
I'm going to be here forever. I can't see you forever. I would really love to be here.
Andy
Please let me hold your hand.
Drew
That's what you were gonna say? What I would do is I would try to convince them that they had, like, the wrong species. I'd be like, you guys are missing it. We are, like, of a low intelligence.
Josh
That would not work.
Andy
We poop out our mouth.
Josh
They'd be like, we know exactly who you are. We have your DNA.
Drew
I would be like, you're missing the secret.
Josh
No, we're not. We're very intelligent. We've actually been here for thousands and thousands and thousands of years before.
Drew
Let me pick.
Josh
Humans were even formed.
Andy
And the alien. You got to pitch it to him.
Josh
Yeah, I'm the alien.
Drew
You've got us all wrong.
Josh
Do I?
Drew
Look at our history. We destroy each other.
Josh
Look at the pyramids. We built them.
Drew
No, you guys did what I said.
Josh
I said we built them.
Drew
Oh, you said.
Andy
No, you guys did.
Josh
Exactly. You're not going anywhere.
Andy
Back in the jail cell.
Drew
That further affirms my point. What you really need to go after are the spiders.
Josh
Oh, yeah.
Drew
Very highly intelligent.
Josh
Hey, Clebo, she said we gotta go after the spiders. Okay, yeah, yeah. You're not going anywhere.
Drew
The camera. And you're taking it out on me.
Josh
No, I'm taking it out on the fact that I'm an alien and your thing will not work.
Drew
I don't want them going back for another human.
Josh
Oh, we're going back for plenty and more.
Andy
Plenty more.
Josh
Yeah, plenty more.
Andy
All day long. Everyone's dead.
Josh
Sorry.
Andy
Me bop meeple. I'm sorry.
Josh
I don't trust you.
Andy
I think you're full of baloney.
Drew
Anyway, that was my question from Jade Edmond.
Josh
Dude, every time I'm mad at Lily, I just talk in an alien voice. My true feelings. I'm upset with you now. I'm not upset with you.
Drew
It feels like you are.
Josh
No, I'm at the situation.
Drew
There is no situation.
Josh
The situation is we might not have the first half of this episode of your camera view.
Drew
You get to hear my beautiful voice.
Lily
Should I just use the photo of her with the Pope bottle the whole time?
Drew
Yeah, please don't.
Lily
Just full frame. I'll stretch it to.
Josh
We'll figure it out. Yeah.
Andy
Anyways, let's do old footage of Lily and just the. The mouth won't sync up.
Josh
Yeah. If you go back to every episode and find the word that she has said.
Andy
That's perfect. Splice it all together.
Josh
Yeah.
Lily
We don't use many words anymore, so that should be easy.
Josh
True.
Andy
Speaking of alien invasion, can I Talk about that Betty Barney Hill thing that I found.
Josh
Yeah. If you want to skip Andrew's reel.
Andy
Oh, gosh. Golly. Yeah. Can't do that.
Josh
We can't do that.
Andy
We can't do that was a joke.
Josh
Because you're setting it up for after the reel.
Andy
Of course I am, Andrew.
Josh
Here's what that beat.
Andy
Yeah. I'm an alien, and I want to.
Josh
See something a real.
Andy
A real.
Josh
From Andrew.
Andy
Yes, please.
Josh
Ill. Lily, you're not going anywhere.
Andy
I don't know.
Josh
I was. I was getting in a loss, so It's.
Lily
It's okay. This. I hate this. I hate this. I hate this. This is Paige's greatest fear as a teacher. This is why you shouldn't send your kids.
Drew
Oh, my gosh.
Lily
To public school.
Josh
Nice lice.
Lily
This is crazy. How does it get this bad?
Josh
Okay, ready? Three, two, one.
Andy
Okay.
Drew
This poor girl.
Andy
Oh, Lordy. That is. Are those all live.
Josh
Bro?
Drew
How did it get so bad?
Andy
That's what I'm saying, man. At that point. Buzz cut. Buzz cut, babe.
Josh
Oh, my gosh.
Andy
Hey, I gave the girl buzz cut today, honey.
Josh
Oh, my gosh.
Andy
Yeah, it just gets worse.
Drew
Now I'm gonna feel like my head's itchy. This whole episode.
Josh
I hated that, dude.
Andy
I almost made a lice joke to Kelsey, like, at night when we were laying down. And I know I literally held back because I'm like, she will not take this as a joke.
Drew
Yeah. Have you ever had lice?
Andy
I don't think so.
Josh
Look at them.
Andy
Yeah, of course I took all of it. No, I don't think so. I think Demi had it when she was a kid from, like, yeah. Some daycare or something, which was a nightmare, but I've never had it.
Lily
But every time. Every time. There's, like, a case in one of the school's pages worked at. I mean, for, like, two months, every single day when she gets home, she's like, I have my. Yeah, I have to, like, sit there. I'm like, I am sure you don't have it, but where do they originate?
Drew
Can you get lice?
Andy
Huh?
Drew
Can you get lice?
Lily
Why would I not be able to?
Drew
Because your hair is a little more coarse and then a thing.
Lily
Wasn't that, like, a Hispanic little girl? He gets, like, the same hair. I don't know.
Andy
He gets rice. Just comb your hair. It's rice.
Lily
Why is that the joke that got you guys?
Andy
We got rice.
Drew
I've never had lice. I'm really scared of it.
Andy
You sure see some stuff pouncing up there.
Drew
Oh my gosh, really crawling.
Andy
Yeah, 100%.
Josh
I've heard that life. Dandruff, a dirty greasy head.
Drew
Yeah.
Josh
And I don't wash my hair ever.
Andy
Yeah, well, you've got beautiful locks. Everyone loves them. Everyone. Everyone drop a comment for Josh's beautiful head of hair.
Josh
Too bad they're fake.
Andy
Yep.
Josh
Aliens.
Andy
Yes. Betty Bonnie Hill. So you remember that story, Lil?
Josh
No, Betty and Barney Hill. Remember?
Drew
Oh, yeah, from the show.
Andy
Interracial couple in the 50s or 60s.
Drew
American story.
Andy
Yeah, basically. Yeah, yeah. And so they're driving, they see a ufo. This long story short, because it's really told, I think, high strange, right? Yeah, yeah, yeah, I thought it was. Yeah. And it just. They tell it super well on there, but there's a detail that really stuck out because after. While they are up there talking with these aliens. It was a long kind of thing and they were able to really go back and forth with communication of them. They even to the point where they put on, pulled out Barney's teeth because he had dentures and they couldn't understand how his teeth came out and hers didn't. And so she was using that, you know, just talking back and forth, explaining to them that it was dentures, all this stuff. And there was one point where she saw a what, what we would call paper, just a notebook of journal. And she was looking at it and it looked like these. This map of stars, right? Just little dots, about 20, 25, six dots with lines and stuff. And so she was asking about this and she was just kept asking more questions and where are you from? And all these things. And the guy was being really weird, not answering the alien guy. And the alien guy looked at her at one point after asking questions about all these dots and all these markings, what they meant. He said, there's really no point in telling me, telling you. There's really no point in telling you where I'm from if you don't even know where you're at. And so when they get dropped back down, she goes and she takes a piece of paper and she draws what she saw, right? The 26 dots with the lines, the circles, everything building out. And apparently when this got documented, people checked it and it was checked by multiple, multiple scientists. And they just couldn't figure out what it is because they were thinking maybe, well, if this is our sun, this would mean these things would exist over here. And it just, it was markings that she wouldn't know how to explain. She just said, this is what I saw.
Drew
Yeah.
Andy
And so it was years and years that went by and until a scientist was looking around through a telescope and they started connecting certain dots. And when they brought it back, it was the exact same star map that she had written 10 years ago. I just sent you the picture.
Lily
Wow, dude.
Andy
They did not discover that until a decade after their abduction. Holy smokes, is that not wild? I mean, if that's not the most obvious proof of something really weird happening, I don't know what is.
Josh
Well, where is that?
Andy
Well, the sun. The sun is. Let's see here. The sun is apparently our. That dot right there.
Drew
Oh, our son.
Andy
Our sun is the. The top dot right there. And so everything that she pointed out was true. And apparently these aliens are from the Zeta Reticuli. Is what it's. They're called Zeta Reticuli, a binary. Binary star system with two sun like stars.
Josh
Do what sounds like a cardinal running for the.
Drew
I said reticuli.
Andy
Pretty cooli yeah.
Josh
That's crazy.
Andy
Dude. I love that story. And the fact that like I just found on that detail on who's on a subreddit, that's getting a lot of traction right now. It's pretty great.
Drew
It has two sun like stars. Yeah, that'd be nuts.
Andy
Huge, dude.
Josh
That's insane. I mean, it's dead on.
Andy
Yeah. I mean, how do you just make that up?
Josh
So wait, where was she? Was she on a ship?
Andy
She was on the ship whenever this was happening, having this conversation with aliens, dude.
Drew
What ended up happening them after that? Like, because American Horror Story depicts that they go to an insane asylum.
Andy
But no, I mean, they. They continue to be advocates and helping a lot of other people with their stories of trying to like, figure out what really happened to them. But yeah, I mean, they. The thing is, they were international couple at that time. That was not great. So them coming out really put them under the spotlight and a lot of ridicule, a lot of the stuff, but they haven't changed their story. Things like this happen and it come just to me confirms it.
Josh
What's up with the T thing I missed?
Andy
Well, that was just a detail that I thought was really interesting. Come out hurt, you know, because they.
Drew
He had.
Andy
Barney had dentures and so his teeth came out. And she's looking at. They're looking at her teeth.
Josh
Aliens.
Andy
Yeah, aliens. Not knowing why her teeth don't come out. Oh. And so they were kind of blown away by that. And so it's just. They were just learning. But I hate that line. It's like, I'm not going to tell you where we are if I mean, where I'm from, if you don't even know where you're at, I'm like, that's so scary.
Josh
Don't like that.
Andy
Yeah. Wild stuff. Absolutely great.
Josh
Don't like that at all.
Andy
No.
Josh
Speaking of aliens, though, I also have aliens to speak about more.
Andy
More. Is this the good stuff that you're talking about?
Josh
No, that was the good stuff I was talking about. But this is also good. That was the good stuff.
Lily
Oh, boy.
Andy
Oh, man. Okay.
Josh
All right.
Drew
I thought it was awesome.
Andy
It was great.
Josh
Yeah. The hav mouse hof.
Andy
Masseuse.
Josh
The half masseuse.
Andy
What is that?
Josh
They are a race of beings that the Paiute people talk about. Okay, so Paiute Native Americans.
Andy
Yeah.
Josh
This tale comes from an interview in the 1930s with Paiute native American woman named Chief Frank or Little Buck. And she. Chief Little Buck, yeah, Chief Little Buck.
Drew
Chief Frank, yeah.
Andy
Miss Chief. Miss to us.
Josh
But she spoke to this journalist.
Andy
Sorry to be frank, you guys.
Josh
You want to keep going back?
Andy
Hey, let us make the jokes and then you can move on.
Josh
She was speaking to the. She told this whole story to this journalist named James Donahue. Wait, that sounds really familiar. James Donahue. I'm James Donahue. Yeah, but it's crazy. And she says the pirates, they speak of this race of beings called the Hav Mas. But they're described as pale skinned, blue eyed people who lived in the. I don't know how to pronounce this the. But the Pan. Panamint. P A N A M I N T. Panamint Mountains of California.
Andy
Okay.
Josh
Near Death Valley, which we talked about. Death Valley, Interesting. But according to the story, they arrived thousands of years ago, possibly by air, and ended up settling underground. Well, they allegedly created a vast subterranean city beneath the Panama Panamite.
Andy
Some California mountains.
Josh
California mountains, complete with technologies far beyond the indigenous tribes of that time. And they were known for flying silver ships or what the natives called them, skyboats.
Drew
Wow.
Josh
But they talk about this technology that they had. They had ray weapons, apparently what they describe, and it says that they had. They would hold these silver tubes and they. When they would shoot them, beams of light would basically disintegrate people. And they had. They called a gliding craft or sky boats. Silent. And they said that they could fly great distances over a short time and sometimes they would see them flying to the stars. And then they had metal tools. The metal tools. That's the one that I thought was absolutely fascinating because it says that these tools didn't wear out the machines that could or they were machines that could cut through rock effortlessly. Instead, they described them as even melting the rock.
Drew
Oh, my gosh.
Josh
Which we talked about that before.
Lily
Right.
Josh
Legends in South America and even in Egypt. They talk about the way that this stuff is made. It looks effortless, and it, like. It looks like it could potentially have been melted rock.
Andy
Yeah. But that also could be explain all those ancient cities that went away with a rapid, intense heat.
Josh
Yeah.
Andy
Because it could be used for a weapon and as a tool.
Josh
Yeah. But they supposedly built massive underground halls in cities carved into marble, complete with lighting that didn't rely on fire, is what they talked about.
Drew
Oh, my gosh.
Josh
The architecture is described as glitch glowing with the walls that gave off light. And they said that compared to, like, what they described today, it's like they looked like cathedrals of marble underground.
Andy
Wow.
Josh
Very similar to the guy that we talked about a couple weeks ago with the Death Valley. That's what I was thinking going into this. It looked like just polished marble.
Andy
Yeah.
Josh
Very interesting stuff.
Andy
I mean, who says they're not connected, right?
Josh
Yeah. But when taught of, like, what were their interactions? Like, the Paiute people and these alien dudes, they said that they communicated through telepathy.
Drew
Oh, boy.
Lily
Always, dude. Right?
Josh
Always. They. They didn't use telepathy. They said that they would speak directly to our minds without moving their mouths.
Andy
Yeah.
Josh
It's like, okay, freaky, but the initial contact. According to the story, the Paiutes first encountered the Pav Masuv while traveling through the California mountains. The Hofman Sus were not aggressive, and there was a period of peaceful interaction. They would trade knowledge and goods. In some stories, they helped the Paiutes during times of famine and drought. So, I mean, that's very comparable to the Watchers teaching them skills of agriculture, technology, all that stuff.
Lily
Yeah.
Andy
Also the location, California. I mean, we hit the Lizard City, we talk about all the Aztecs. I mean, that's. Yeah.
Josh
Yeah. Over time, the Hav masseuse withdrew further underground as more settlers and other tribes entered the area. Some versions say that they feared aggressions of the, quote, white man, the European settlers, while others suggest that they were simply finishing their mission or returning to isolation. And in one version, a group of Paiutes followed the Hav Masuvs into a cave entrance, but were turned back by light beams or strange energies. After that, the entrance was supposedly sealed. Some. Some say it was by a rockslide. Others say the Hav Masuv themselves sealed it up.
Andy
Yeah.
Drew
Wow.
Josh
And.
Andy
But story after story, man, yeah.
Josh
Insane. And then I'm like, well, what are the other comparable, like, Native American stories? Like, are there any that speak of beings like this? Sure, there's plenty.
Andy
Oh, snap.
Josh
Yeah.
Lily
Just in that region or all over.
Josh
All over North America.
Andy
I mean, this. That's the thing. Like the paradise show on Hulu, when they have the city that goes underground because the war, you know, the war on Earth. I mean, who's. Who knows, man? I mean, it's huge. I mean, there's so much of our earth that we haven't explored. We have all these caves that have their own ecosystems. They're so big. Like, who. Yeah, I want to know, could there.
Lily
Be stuff in there, how connected all of those cave systems are? You know, like the east coast stuff to the West Coast? Who's to say that they don't connect?
Josh
Yeah.
Andy
And our minds just don't go, oh, there's stuff underneath us. It's like, no, everything's above. Like, that's just. We don't even. It's. It's like the vocabulary thing. It's not even in our mind that there could be something underneath.
Josh
I know. So the Hopi tribe, they talk about the Ant People, which I think we may have mentioned before, but that was in Arizona. It says that they lived underground, they built cities underground, and that they were pale and had large eyes. The Navajo Southwest us, so that's close to that region. They called the Snake People, reptilian or serpentine beings who lived underground and possess advanced knowledge often associated with tricky or trickery or control. And then the Lakota, Dakota, Sioux, and other tribes talk about the Star People, which we've talked about the Zuni and the Hopi, they have the Kachinas, basically the spiritual beings that came from the sky to go underground.
Drew
Wow.
Josh
Taught humans how to live, build, plant, and pray, it says. They said that they wore elaborate helmets and suits, which is weird. And then you have the Cherokee, Choctaw and Chickasaw, and they called their beings or whatever the builders of the mounds. They said they were a race of giant light skinned beings who built great mounds before the tribes arrived. These beings disappeared underground into earth after their time ended.
Drew
You know, so interesting what we learned about the Native Americans from our region. Like, where are the ones Seminole? And then Timoku and Timokuin.
Josh
Oh, Timokuin, Timuchen.
Drew
They always talk about their mound building. But did we get it wrong? Were they not building the mounds? Was it these giant people?
Josh
Yeah, I mean, a lot of people like the. This. Was it the Serpent Mounds in Ohio.
Drew
Yeah.
Lily
But, but even, even if both people were building, it would make sense that they would continue something that they saw.
Drew
Yeah, true.
Lily
You know what I mean? Cuz they do find artifacts if they.
Josh
Taught them to pray. Right. So like they're teaching them like maybe to worship them or like whatever.
Drew
Yeah.
Josh
So like build these mounds.
Lily
But you know, I don't want to derail it. But remember when I talked about the moon? Was it moon eye people or moon eye children? That was another pale, pale face.
Andy
Large Ohio.
Drew
And where was Mississippi?
Lily
It was like Appalachia and then they crossed over. But then tricksters, the men Hun and Hawaii as well.
Drew
Oh my gosh.
Josh
Yeah. So that's the Serpent Mound in Ohio.
Lily
Dude, it's everywhere. It's creepy.
Josh
Dude.
Andy
It's crazy because we. I learned about this. Like there's an ancient city in Missouri. Like there's these huge ginormous pyramids type of mounds that apparently was at one time the biggest civilization in the United States.
Drew
We talking about.
Josh
Yeah.
Andy
It's the craziest thing. And they have ruins still to this day. And I'm like, I lived there and I had no idea.
Josh
Yeah. When you told me that, I looked into it a little bit more and they said that this city had more people than all the UK at this point in time.
Drew
Settled in Missouri.
Andy
Would you chill act Missouri. It's beautiful. It's beautiful to bear wasteland and stop it. But yeah, but it's kind of crazy because it has like a type of Aztec type of architecture.
Josh
Yeah.
Andy
And so like in the middle of the country.
Josh
Yeah.
Andy
It's so strange.
Drew
That is really crazy.
Josh
I'm telling you this. We're just a record player at this point. But like the commonality between the world is insane of like talking about very specific things.
Andy
Yeah.
Josh
The fact that the US had all these different tribes. A lot of them hated each other too. Yep. Living on opposite sides of the country. All talk about some sort of being from the stars that lived underground. They moved underground.
Drew
You know, it would be like cosmically hilarious. I'm not like wishing this upon our country or anything like that. But like a lot of like the conservative Christians that kind of define the narrative right now in you know, politics or whatever. You know, you talk to some of these people about like the end times or whatever and you think they all think that America is just like this huge powerhouse of like godliness and virtue and whatever. Like where we got it. Right.
Josh
Yeah.
Drew
But what if we're like, like this land is just like full of demons.
Andy
That Would be hilarious.
Josh
Yeah.
Lily
That would be so funny.
Andy
Yeah. It tracks. It tracks. We can see.
Josh
I can see that you got a landfall demonstration.
Andy
I mean, wouldn't we talk about these lizard people? Wouldn't that be a result of a humanoid creature or something, living without sun?
Josh
Yeah.
Andy
I mean, and living underground, like over time, evolving. Yeah, like, so your skin becomes more adaptable to a dark and wet place with no sunlight.
Josh
I mean. Yeah, we talk about the. How the watchers obviously made it with the women of Earth and created the Nephilim.
Andy
Yeah.
Josh
But like, it also not canonized. But the Book of Enoch, it talks about them bastardizing God's creation and creating these hybrids of people. And that's where you get stories of mermaids, vampires, all this kind of stuff. So, like. And if you're gonna say all that stuff. Reptilians, that would.
Andy
Bigfoot. Just a Nephilim with bad Genesis.
Josh
Could be the hairy cousin.
Andy
Yep.
Josh
Yeah.
Andy
I'm sure he wears great jeans. I don't mean to say. I'm sure he's got style.
Josh
It's weird though, man.
Andy
Yeah, super.
Josh
I don't know if I want to see one of those things, though.
Drew
Never ever.
Josh
I'd be fine from a distance.
Andy
Yeah. And it makes you wonder why they wear the helmet and stuff like that.
Josh
Yeah. Yeah.
Andy
To make you think that there's something they're not. What if it was just a lizard person underneath that.
Josh
Yeah.
Andy
You know, helmet. You have no idea.
Josh
That's weird.
Drew
I would just. Yeah, I would love to find out. I hope the Lord tells us where we get to see it.
Josh
I think we'll know about it. I think we'll know about it.
Andy
Do you want to hear about a scary mountain?
Drew
Yeah.
Josh
I love scary mountains.
Andy
We're on a scary mountain roll right now. Okay. So in Pakistan, there is a mountain that is called T Rich More Mountain, which is also. And trans. Translated to the King of Darkness Mountain.
Drew
Oh, my gosh.
Andy
This is in Pakistan.
Josh
I don't know how to name mountains.
Andy
They really do. Now, there's a reason probably why they have. It has this dark name. Because in 1950 was the first time anyone actually discovered this large mountain actually ever went on it, ever tried to summon it. They don't have an exact number throughout the years of how many people have died on this thing. But it's said to be hundreds. It was unsubmitable at one point. Right. But certain people have claimed that they've reached the summit, which is totally cool. That's fine. But there was a time that it Was open rain, anyone could go. And there were some weird stories every now and then. Like, there's, like, there's some lore that fairies lived. There was a castle of fairies that used to live on this huge mountain. And there would be ginormous frogs that would hide within holes and eat anyone up. And before they went up, Carnivorous frogs. Carnivorous frogs. Which is terrifying to think of, like a frog the size of a school bus, like, lurking behind you. Right. They're saying that they were ginormous. Yeah, apparently they were ginormous. They would swallow humans whole. But I mean, like, I heard that. I'm like, whatever. But apparently this isn't even, like a myth. There's people who have seen these. I don't know if you would call them monks or whatever you would call them, but they were just people that are indigenous to that area that would live on the mountain. They. People wouldn't know their names. People wouldn't see their faces, but they would know. And they. Apparently, they would claim we're there to protect the. The space between nature and people and trying to keep this mountain at peace. Because there's a lot of lore to it. And it says if you. You summit it and it doesn't. You know, it doesn't. The mountain doesn't kill you on your climb, within a year, you die. And there's been claim after claim of this stuff happening. Right. And at one point in the early 2000s, it got shut down. They said, you are not touching this mountain. No one can go on. This mountain is completely restricted. Guess when it was. When they restricted this. September 2001.
Drew
Oh, well, it's weird. Coincidence.
Andy
Yeah. They say it's because it's near the border. I think of Iraq or Baghdad, I guess. Whatever.
Josh
Whatever is in Iraq.
Andy
Yeah. So Iraq, it's close by, and that's what they claimed. And so for almost 20 years, no one was able to go up on this mountain. And in 2019, the US government said.
Josh
You couldn't do it. Or the government people of Pakistan. Okay, yeah.
Andy
Said you cannot go up. It's completely restricted. In 2019, a French group of mountain climbers got permission to go up it. No one was on this mountain. So they go up this mountain, and on 20 years, first time in 20 years, they're going up this mountain, and this is just a thing that they just threw out. I'm like, how is this not a big deal? They're going up this mountain, and they see over in the far distance, another group of people coming back down the mountain. Pardon and they're like, that's weird. They go up and they have a conversation. These people are Russian. They're a Russian group. Had no. No interest in having conversation or like sticking around. And then they left. French people up there, went up there and went down with no problem whatsoever. And still to this day, it's very restricted. People aren't allowed on it. But one story that I found very, very particular, like, very interesting was. I believe it was in like the. It was in the 60s, this man named Peter from Austria and his two friends. They decide, we're busy at school, we're gonna take a break and we're gonna go mountain climbing. We love mountain climbing. We're gonna go to T rich more, right? They get there and they start climbing. And then they make a base camp to reach the summit. They sit down at the base camp and they sit down, they look in all their supplies, all their food and everything like that, and they realize they don't have enough for three people. So they're gonna decide. They decided we're gonna send two people up. One person's gonna stay at base camp.
Drew
No way.
Andy
Right. How they decide to do this is during doing a poker game. So they have a poker game. It's pretty intense. And Peter, the one who organized the trip, loses his two friends. Then that morning leave to go summit the rest of Tiki Rich, the king of Darkness Mountain, and they die. They fall, apparently off an ice sheet. That's what's said. They never recovered the bodies that I know of, and they just happen to die. Peter walks completely unscathed, goes back to college and starts reevaluating things. Couple years later, this guy starts working at a company called Nestle.
Drew
Shut up.
Andy
His name is Peter Brabeck, who is now the found. I'm not the CEO of the World Economic Forum. The same man who went on top of this mountain had two his best friends. Parish went on from there to start working at Nestle. And ever as since then has been working for Nestle until recently.
Josh
And he was appointed by clout Klaus.
Lily
Yes.
Josh
The new chairman of the World Economic.
Drew
Literally demon possessed.
Andy
I mean, it's kind of crazy. This is the same guy who said that water is not a human right?
Drew
Yeah.
Andy
Is that. He was. You know, people said he was misquoted, but I'm like, that's literally what you said, though. It's not a human right. And when he started working for Nestle in 1970, it gets kind of crazy because he became the marketing director and he went to Chile for Nestle. Nestle and Chile and Nestle. And so he was there and he was running it. And but you look at, you look at all the things that they did in that time within South America and in Africa. They started pumping instant formula.
Drew
Oh yeah.
Andy
Like crazy, right? And it got to the point where they said, listen, we're going to start giving it to you for free. We're going to give it to you very low. Because they knew they couldn't afford it. It was a low middle income country. And so they started giving them all this instant formula. And you know, with breast milk, if you don't use it, you lose it. Right. And so they start having all these babies that are dependent on this formula and then they start using the water that's available to them in their village. Poison, which is dirty, poisonous water. And it says on the label, if you use this water, it will kill your baby. Guess what? 10 million babies. Holy. At the hands of Nestle. Because of this instant formula peaking over, like, on average, it was a 2. It was $200,000. 200,000 infant lives being lost on average. And he was there. And the thing is, which was really crazy, Nestle had a huge part in it because they would send their sales women to the hospitals in these countries dressed as nurses.
Lily
I saw that.
Andy
Yeah. Dressed as nurses to educate on formula, saying that the doctors are preferring this, which is. Was not true at all. What? Yes.
Josh
Is that not like a Geneva dude?
Andy
They've, they've had to pay. They've had to pay millions upon millions and millions of dollars not only for that they had. They were supplying chocolate and treats and all this stuff during World War II to the Nazis. They were using people in concentration camps for workers. Not paying them, not feeding them, not anything.
Josh
And so you.
Andy
When you look at this, it's just such a dark history.
Josh
So now he's the chairman of the World Economic Forum.
Andy
And now he's the chairman of the World Economic Forum.
Drew
I will never look at the Nesquikbunny the same again.
Lily
So the story is that two of his friends fell on an ice sheet after playing poker. These people had the capability of logistically planning a trip across the world and ascending a mountain. Or is it that every time we talk about satanic dark stuff, there's always an exchange of sacrificing what you love most? And did he make a trip with his best friends and leave them behind.
Andy
And become one of the richest, most powerful men in the world?
Drew
Okay, well, you never.
Lily
That was a lot.
Andy
You never thought. No, I did.
Josh
I Went I was stuck on the mountain.
Drew
Yeah, yeah.
Josh
And then you said that. I'm just like.
Andy
Well, I was just looking it up because I. The mountain had nothing to do with it. I was just looking into him. And then I was looking into his history and everything like that. And he says, this was a big transformative moment in my life. This has kind of changed everything. Put things in perspective for me. And you can't find. It gives you the name of the height. His friend. You can't find anything on his friends. Anything at all. And it was just kind of like a weird thing, but just connection after connection.
Josh
That's so weird.
Drew
It's weird that it was such a spooky mountain. You never explained the Russian dudes, though.
Andy
That's it. That's what the thing is. They just blipped it and gone.
Josh
Did they just. Did they describe what the Russian dudes looked like at all? Like.
Andy
No.
Drew
Was it them where they go.
Andy
The Diatlov Bass guys?
Josh
No, I'm thinking of the Mount Kailash, what we talked about last week. So it's the Mount Kailash in Tibet. Yeah. So they were both. There's a group of mountaineers that went up the mountain.
Andy
Oh, that's right here.
Drew
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Josh
And then Siberian mountaineers. So I don't know the nationality that group that went before them. But the Russia is heavily invested in Mount Kailash, studying it and all the anomalies that are about it. What if there's like a weird time slippage portal.
Andy
Yeah, like. Like the dark. The TV show. Something like that connection. And it's weird, right? Because I mean when I saw they stopped it on. They restricted the mountain at September 11, September 11, 2001.
Josh
And the Mount Kailash is restricted from. You can't climb that either.
Andy
Yeah, but you think about the Gilgamesh stuff that happened during the Iraq war. I mean, all this stuff, man, it's just such a.
Josh
The Stargate stuff.
Andy
Yeah, it's super strange.
Josh
You just opened up a box.
Andy
I'm telling you, I found that mountain by accident. But you look at the picture of the mountain. It's massive. Dude, it's so crazy.
Josh
That's a wild story.
Drew
How spooky is that?
Josh
Yeah, the World Economic Forum is spooky enough, but the connection now is. Makes it way more spooky.
Drew
Is that the same group that. Do you remember like hit. They did that weird like satanic performance.
Andy
So just huge out of nowhere.
Josh
I don't know. That was like for some tunnel. But I think the World Economic Forum was involved in that somehow. Okay, but you looked into Klaus Schwab a little bit today, and his. How his father was a. A Nazi.
Andy
Yeah. They're like crazy big. Like they're working for the actual. They moved in the middle of the World War II to help out the Third Reich.
Drew
Oh, my gosh.
Andy
Yeah.
Drew
He's been there is like the most.
Josh
Powerful person who founded the World Economic Forum just stepped down.
Andy
He just stepped down on the day that the. The Pope passes away. And now this guy Peter is in charge.
Josh
Peter, Klaus, Peter the Pope.
Andy
They just assumed on the same day. What if it's not the Vatican? What if it's the Vatican? What if the step above the Vatican is the World Economic Forum?
Drew
Oh, my gosh. Are you guys joking?
Josh
This is real. That is crazy.
Andy
It's a weird coincidence.
Josh
That's weird.
Andy
Yeah. Super strange.
Drew
Wow. Weird.
Andy
Yeah. Did we just talk about that on the live. The Peter thing?
Josh
Yeah.
Andy
Okay, so watch the live. But there's the prophecy of the popes leads to us to believe that the next Pope is going to be named Peter.
Josh
Peter the Roman. Yeah.
Drew
And then. And he will be the last Pope.
Josh
Yeah. Before Judgment Day.
Drew
Jesus, come back, please.
Josh
Well, probably is cool. That's wild.
Andy
It's fun, right?
Lily
That's great.
Andy
It just kept taking me down farther and farther, man.
Josh
I love mountain stories.
Andy
Yeah. There's something weird about. Aren't there. There's also. There was another quote I wanted to read of Peter's, but never mind. Can't find it.
Josh
Nestle, man.
Drew
That's crazy.
Lily
Hate that.
Josh
That's terrible. How do these people. How are they even a company still?
Lily
Yeah, that's like, you know, we hate cancel culture for a lot of reasons, but sometimes y' all want to take, take, take up a cause.
Josh
Yeah. You know, like, stop buying Nestle.
Drew
We're defenseless again.
Lily
It was. It was 200,000.
Andy
Look what they owe the own, though.
Drew
Yeah, it's.
Andy
It's impossible. It was everything we buy.
Lily
You said. What was the figures on how many assumed infants?
Andy
10 million is what they said. But they was reaching up to every year. It was on average 200,000 per year each year.
Lily
Yikes, dude.
Andy
Yeah. And they're saying like, oh, we're done now. Right? 2011. There's still 19 countries that are saying they're still doing this. They're still doing it. So it's not just going away. They're just under the radar.
Josh
And he's the person that's supposed to be dictating what. Because the World Economic Forum is like, just it's basically an arm of the United nations. At this point. We're making policy changes that affect everything globally.
Andy
And that stuff's not public. Those conversations aren't, of course.
Josh
Yeah.
Andy
Like shown.
Josh
It's like, that's terrible, man. It's like right in front of your face.
Andy
Yeah, we don't care.
Josh
Well, we do care, but, like, what are you going to do about it?
Andy
That's what I'm saying. But that thing, like, we don't even care. Like, like we just. Most people just hear it and just don't even talk about it. At least talk about it.
Lily
At least.
Josh
Yeah.
Andy
Start having that conversation. And because it's gonna, you know, we. We just don't. We just become apathetic about it. Our kids will do. The generations will follow. It's like, oh, it's just how the world works.
Josh
That's crazy.
Andy
Super scary stuff.
Josh
Freaking Nestle, dude.
Andy
Dude. Nasty.
Drew
Yeah.
Andy
Ought I punch you in the face? Dude?
Josh
I used to love their chocolate milk, man.
Andy
Dude, Peter brought back.
Josh
I'm never gonna drink that chocolate milk again, dude.
Andy
Well, Peter broke your nose, dude.
Josh
Yeah. Ah, yeah. Here, chocolate bunny. I'll kick your butt.
Andy
Have you guys ever heard of the immortal jellyfish?
Josh
No.
Andy
This is no joke. The coolest jellyfish. It's literally a jellyfish that if it needs to, it can regenerate to its like, teenage self and in theory could just continuously be a full on immortal jellyfish. Listen, the way it explains it real.
Josh
Quick, Fish is a small jellyfish species native to the Mediterranean Sea. When threatened, injured, or faced with adverse environmental conditions, the jellyfish can transform back into its juvenile polyp stage, effectively starting its life cycle over again.
Andy
What?
Josh
The immortal jellyfish can repeat this process indefinitely, making it biologically immortal.
Andy
Dude, the craziest thing.
Josh
Those are made by the watchers for sure.
Andy
Jellyfish are wild, dude.
Lily
Dude.
Josh
I have.
Lily
I have an ocean story. Oh, straight. Straight off the coast of St. Augustine. Yes.
Andy
Oh, let's go.
Lily
How did. How do I say the name? I told. I asked Josh how to pronounce his name earlier and he said however he says it, you're for sure gonna correct me. Matanzas Inlet.
Drew
That's correct.
Andy
Whoa.
Lily
Dang. I'm kind of thrown off. Oh, there was a massacre there. But much older than this story, probably justified. I continued to do research while the pod was going. And I'm a little disappointed because the first story that I had, I had an argument with Chat GPT because Chad GBT lied to me when I asked for a true story and said that it was true and when I pushed it was not.
Josh
But it does that, man.
Lily
But they based it on another story, which isn't as crazy, but is also true. So I'm gonna, I'm just gonna turn my phone around and I'll pop these photos up, you know, on the screen while the pods running. But have you guys ever seen these photos of what washed up on the shore just off that island?
Josh
No.
Lily
Okay, so these things, this, it's in the, in the late 1800s, this like unidentified creature thing washed up on the shore. And we're talking it's like 18ft long, 3ft off the sand, and it's also like half buried in this. There's like, these are real photos that have existed. There's photos of people like spectating the tide wash it away. And then it later showed up. And so they actually, like, they were like, oh, let's not let that happen again. We want to research it. And so they later like dragged it further up, it says near train tracks. So wherever that is in the area. But they got it off the title line. But what's super interesting is they said it had seven legs and a tail. But as like research has continued on this creature, they're surmising like that's was eight, you know, it wasn't a tail. It was the eighth appendage. And most of the octopus like arms had been cut pretty short. You know, this thing had been dead in the sea and so it had been eaten. But when you think about like this was some of the earliest stories of creatures like this or like the pirate era, like 1700s.
Drew
Like a Kraken.
Lily
Yeah, like the kraken or large, large octopus. But they're saying because of the size of this thing, and if it was. Were an actual octopus, it would have been like the tentacles could have been like 100 foot long because they're like the, they were like this. You can see them in the photos, but they're like this big around at the nubs.
Josh
Oh my God.
Lily
And so the actual creature, it stands to reason would it would have been, you know, like what we see pictures of like the stories we hear. And so they have an actual proof. Now here's where it gets gray and murky. They took samples from the initial discovery.
Josh
All those pictures look great but fair.
Lily
They did, you know, they, they took samples and then it was, it was like a. No, I'm doing really bad math. It was like 50 years later that a newspaper recirculated the story. And then someone in the 70s was like, wait, they actually have this stuff that we can study. I'm going to do research. And they decided to take tissue samples. They had it. They still had a piece of this saved. And they compared it to octopus. And they said it most closely compared to, like, squid to whale. All this stuff. The tissue sample most closely like it is. I forget, it's like octopi giganta, something in Latin. But they're like. They're calling it a giant octopus. That's what it is.
Josh
Whoa.
Lily
And then someone pushes back and they're like, and this is now in the late 90s. And they're like, well, let's do the study again. And I think it happens three times. And it starts out it was definitely an octopus. And then the next person is like, it's gelatinous. And we believe it to be maybe a squid, maybe an octopus, something else. And then. Then someone pushes back again, does another. Another study, and they say it's just like gelatinous blubber. But what I find interesting is they're saying science is evolving, but it sounds to me like the tissue itself is degenerating and decomposing into, you know, just rather than having, like, this structure, it's becoming just the blob. But the first people to study it. And the doctor's name. Yeah, Dr. DeWitt Webb, in November 30th of 1896, is the first person who arrived where two boys had discovered this octopus on the beach. And so it's a professional science person who actually collected the first samples.
Josh
Oh, wow.
Lily
And so, yeah, this is right off the coast, right off St. Augustine. So all those pictures, we see a pine pirates and stuff.
Andy
That.
Lily
That is real. And for some reason we don't know about it.
Drew
Oh, my gosh.
Andy
Where's the rest of those suckers?
Josh
Literally?
Andy
Really?
Drew
Am I getting eaten?
Andy
They're like, really? Really?
Josh
That's crazy.
Lily
Dude.
Josh
The ocean is scared.
Andy
Imagine just being grabbed by one of those.
Lily
Look at this photo. This is just the top of it being wound up. And they. They estimated that it weighed somewhere on the beach, like, weighed somewhere around like 4 or 5 tons.
Andy
Can you send those to us?
Lily
Yeah. And so I wanted. I wanted to, like, be sure that I was getting the, like, okay, how much I looked up how much is like a sperm whale eat. And, you know, they'll eat, like, you know, 1500 to 2500 tons. But the amount, some people later surmise that it was like whale throw up. And that's why it was, like, digested in just a blob.
Josh
Oh.
Lily
But if that's true, then the size of the whale. Whale. And that's just as crazy. It's literally proportionately, just as insane to believe a whale would be that big as an octopus.
Drew
Oh, my God.
Josh
That's crazy.
Lily
Yeah.
Andy
So.
Josh
Oh, go to. You said Sano scene is a dirty pirate town.
Drew
Now it's a dirty pirate town.
Josh
That's a dirty pirate town filled with giant octopus octopi.

The episode opens with a heartfelt yet humorous tribute to the recently deceased Pope Jorge. Josh and Andy perform a satirical poem mourning his loss, highlighting both personal and exaggerated characteristics.
The hosts delve into the transition phase of the papacy, discussing the implications of Pope Jorge’s passing and speculating about the next pope. They introduce potential candidates, emphasizing both legitimate and humorous names.
The conversation takes a tangential yet amusing turn as they joke about naming dogs after popes and reflect on the profound impact of leadership changes within the Catholic Church.
Transitioning from religious leadership, Josh raises a provocative question about Artificial Intelligence's role in altering the English language to control societal thought.
The hosts explore a conspiracy theory suggesting that AI systems are systematically removing over 11,000 English nouns from usage, citing a TikTok account’s claims about significant declines in word usage between October 2023 and February 2024. They draw parallels to George Orwell’s 1984, discussing the concept of Newspeak and its potential to limit human thought by reducing linguistic diversity.
The discussion highlights concerns about future generations losing access to a rich vocabulary, thus diminishing their ability to express complex ideas and emotions. They emphasize the importance of literacy and direct human interaction in preserving language integrity.
The conversation shifts to ancient alien theories intertwined with Native American folklore. The hosts discuss various indigenous stories that speak of pale, advanced beings living underground and influencing human civilizations.
They delve into specific legends, such as the Hav Mas from Paiute mythology, describing their subterranean cities and advanced technologies. The hosts connect these ancient tales to modern UFOlogy, contemplating the possibility of a hidden alien presence on Earth.
The segment blends historical anecdotes with speculative theories, creating an engaging narrative that questions the origins of many ancient structures and civilizations.
In a spine-chilling segment, the hosts recount the eerie legends surrounding T Rich More Mountain in Pakistan, also known as the King of Darkness Mountain. They share stories of mysterious deaths, alleged sightings of mystical creatures, and indigenous guardians protecting the mountain's secrets.
They discuss the 2019 expedition by a French climbing group who, despite multiple warnings and ongoing restrictions, summitted the mountain and encountered unexplained phenomena. The narrative intertwines with real-world events, such as the coincidence of the mountain's restriction starting on September 11, 2001.
The hosts speculate on connections between these mountain mysteries and global conspiracies, suggesting that powerful figures may be linked to these unexplained occurrences.
The episode takes a thrilling turn as Lily introduces evidence of a giant octopus, potentially validating age-old legends of the Kraken. She presents photos of a massive octopus washed ashore near St. Augustine, accompanied by eyewitness accounts and scientific evaluations.
The hosts discuss the initial discovery, the subsequent degradation of the creature's remains, and the controversial scientific findings that oscillate between identifying it as an octopus, squid, or merely gelatinous blubber. The debate underscores the elusive nature of such cryptids and the challenges in conclusively identifying them.
This segment blends skepticism with wonder, leaving listeners to ponder the realities of mythical sea creatures.
Towards the latter part of the episode, the hosts reflect on a previous live episode that experienced unexplained technical glitches, sparking fears of AI misbehavior or supernatural interference.
They share a personal scary story involving neighborhood alerts about mysterious knocks and a humming female voice, adding a layer of personal horror to the discussion.
The conversation emphasizes the blurring lines between technology, privacy, and unexplained supernatural events, creating an atmosphere of suspense and intrigue.
