Main Theme / Episode Overview

This episode dives into the bizarre intersection of ancient rituals and modern conspiracy, with a core focus on immortality in world leaders, astronaut encounters with alleged ancient aliens, and how obscure, ancient Japanese coronation rites echo supernatural traditions. With detours into stories about appendix surgeries, haunted house laughs, and the legal limits of spreading ashes, the cast blends outlandish comedic banter, wild speculation, a dash of theology, and surprising cultural commentary. The usual rambunctious storytelling is joined by Bible-funny insights with guest Anthony Russo.

Key Discussion Points & Insights

1. Medical Mishaps & Trust Issues

• Appendix and Oil Changes
  • The show opens with playful skepticism about whether everyday procedures—like appendix surgery or oil changes—are ever really performed. (03:10)
    • “Maybe it’s just the same appendix they’re showing everybody.” — Josh (02:09)
    • “Body cam footage. Every surgeon should be wearing a body cam.” — Anthony (02:33)
  • Spirals into hypotheticals about missing belly buttons and comedic fears over body parts swapped or left behind.
• Miraculous Medical Stories
  • A friend's father discovers a life-threatening aneurysm due to a check for kidney stones. (04:15)
  • Jokey hopes for “full service” while under anesthesia—“slim the love handles a bit while you’re at it”—setting the tone of irreverence.

2. Conspiracies, Current Events & Outrageous Headlines

• Lottery Wins & Gas Station Stories
  • Hosts recount family connections to minor lottery wins and riff on apps for buying tickets.
• Danger in the Ordinary
  • Discussion on child celebrities’ struggles, Nickelodeon scandals, and what the Nickelodeon blob logo really represents. (21:27)
• Disney Trauma & Existential Disney Ride Horror
  • Repressed childhood traumas at Disney (Goofy shoving a host, panic attacks in the park). Ties into the episode’s running theme: “Weird things hide in plain sight.” (23:17)
  • Discourse on hidden protest dolls in “It’s a Small World” rides bringing atomic bomb awareness, riffed on as comedic nightmare fuel. (26:06)

3. Cremated Human Remains, Rituals, and Ashes Mishaps (30:12–36:11)

• Las Vegas Investigation
  • Disturbing news: Seventy to a hundred piles of cremated ashes found neatly arranged outside Vegas. (30:16)
  • Segues into personal stories and comically illegal ash-spreading misadventure in the Gulf, made awkward as the ashes drift toward beachgoers. (33:06)
  • “Just flush me down the toilet!”—Anthony’s humorous take on his own afterlife wishes (35:52)

4. Immortal Dictators & Rituals of Power (37:01–40:23)

• Chinese Military Parade & World Leaders’ Mic’d Conversation
  • Kim Jong Un’s 20-hour train trip to China for a WW2-anniversary parade; world leaders’ posturing.
  • Caught on a hot mic: Putin and Xi Jinping discuss scientific organ-swapping experiments to prolong life—“immortality small talk.” (39:32)
    • “[Xi] said, ‘We’re for sure gonna have people around us that are gonna live to 150 years old.’” — Josh (39:55)
• Modern Science Echoes Ancient Lore
  • Talk of growing human organs, peptides, BPC-157 supplements, and China’s artificial womb robots—cultural lines blur between medical science and science fiction. (40:39)
  • “Lily has a theory that Vladimir Putin has been doing this, and that’s why he’s so secretive about his health and that he’s, like, 200 years old and maybe a vampire.” — Josh (41:25)

5. Ancient Astronaut Theories & the Anunnaki (67:04–69:22)

• Astronaut Claims We’re All Aliens
  • Armstrong-style astronaut makes wild claim: The Anunnaki (ancient Sumerian gods) brought humanity to Earth as a slave race to mine gold. (67:57)
    • “Every time I look in the mirror… the Anunnaki brought us here. We’re aliens on this Earth.” — Anonymous astronaut (67:57)
• Media Evasion
  • The show’s hosts lament how quickly such admissions are glossed over by the interviewers.

6. Japanese Rituals & Echoes of the Watchers (75:03–81:55)

• The Daijōsai Ritual
  • Deep-dive into the Japanese imperial enthronement ritual (Daijōsai): building two huts, secret interaction with sun goddess Amaterasu, centuries-old linkage with supernatural ancestry, and speculation about what ritual “the bed” symbolizes. (78:15–79:39)
    • “It mimics almost exactly what they used to do in ancient Mesopotamia and Canaan.” — Josh (79:34)
  • Parallels are drawn to ancient Mesopotamian and Canaanite king-making rites—possibly involving the Watchers/Nephilim biblical narrative.
  • Surprising fact: The emperor is still treated as a quasi-divine figure, with post-WWII US-imposed renunciation having only symbolic impact.

7. Sidetracks: Accents, Comedy, and Horror

• Accents After Head Injury
  • Lightly delves into stories of people emerging from comas with new accents, then segues into favorite accent wishlists and celebrity impressions. (56:34–59:32)
• Haunted Houses, Scream Therapy, and Horror Film Musings
  • The comedic kinship between jump scares and laughter. Warm-up stories for Halloween, and a digression into movies (including Jordan Peele’s newest and horror directors with comedy backgrounds).

8. Theology and Bible Oddities (82:47–89:10)

• Orthodox Podcast Learnings and Esoteric Bible Details
  • Anthony Russo and the crew discuss findings from “Lord of Spirits” podcast—genealogies, giants, and oral transmission in ancient tradition.
  • Amusingly esoteric Bible translation: “Superfluity of naughtiness” in KJV James 1:21. (83:36)
• Japanese Flag Symbolism
  • Realization that the red circle is a connection to Japan’s sun goddess and imperial mythology. (84:42)

Episode Tone & Style

The hosts maintain their signature blend of irreverence and curiosity, shifting swiftly from eyebrow-raising news headlines to comedic personal stories, and then into surprisingly thoughtful theological and historical analysis—without ever getting too serious for long. Playful roasting, callback jokes, and recurring references to the hazards of vitamins play throughout, underlined by an infectious enthusiasm for all things weird, wild, and slightly conspiracy-tinged.

For Listeners Who Missed the Episode

If you didn’t catch episode 161, you missed a characteristically wild ride—exploring everything from how world leaders might try to live forever, bizarre and secret ancient rituals, astronaut confessions about ancient aliens, and why you should never trust your appendix surgeon (or your auto mechanic). You also got Bible translation oddities, ice cream truck horror, and an unexpectedly haunting riff about spreading relatives’ ashes. Amid the chaos, the show found moments to ask: What does it really mean to be immortal, and what are the hidden rituals of power that still shape the world?

Did you see the oil?

[A]

I didn't.

Like, no, actually, I didn't.

That is such a good point. Like, how many, like, places have actually probably done that? But how many not done anything?

[A]

How many things in your life do you just. You. You. I passed out. I woke up. I think they took out my appendix. Yeah, how do I. Maybe it's just the same appendix they're showing everybody.

[C]

Maybe they put other things in there. You know, maybe that's like. What. Like how they get rid of stuff. Like certain evidence. Like, they just put it in people.

[A]

No one would ever think to look there in Josh's appendix slot.

[B]

It could still be in there because this feels like almost the exact pain of when my appendix was bursting.

[C]

I'm telling you, there needs to be. We need to have video every single time.

[B]

Yeah.

[C]

Body cam footage. Every surgeon should be wearing a body cam.

What did they Take out my belly button then.

[C]

I mean, they took it out or put something in.

[A]

What if they did take out your belly button? Is that what you said?

[B]

No, because I have a scar above my belly button, so that's where they supposedly pulled it out.

[A]

They used the belly button as, like, a port.

[B]

There's two holes. One over here.

[A]

Okay.

[B]

One above my belly button. And they cut this one, and they basically put, like, an air compressor in there. Blow up your stomach.

[A]

Okay.

[B]

And they come in through your belly button, like, right above it, grab your appendix and go, whoop.

[A]

Oh, my. That's traumatic. When did this happen, supposedly?

[B]

Couple. Yeah, allegedly.

[C]

Allegedly.

[A]

Now.

[B]

What the heck's happening in my stomach right now? Probably vitamins. I took vitamins without eating something. And I've just been on the couch for the past two hours going, oh, no. And then Anthony got here like, what's up, man?

[C]

What's up, dude?

[B]

What's going on?

[D]

Well, my tummy doesn't hurt.

[C]

I definitely don't call my tummy.

[D]

Apparently, a second appendix rupture is a thing if the surgeon missed either a portion or some people have a second appendix.

[B]

Second appendix.

[A]

What if you have two appendici?

[B]

Wow.

[C]

Appendici.

[C]

I mean, I don't know.

[D]

Aortic aneurysm.

[B]

Aortic. Yeah, aneurysm. Like, before it burst. They found it.

[A]

They found it because he was in there for the other thing.

[B]

Yeah. And so got airlifted to the hospital, and they were able to remove it before it ruptured.

[A]

That really is in that.

[B]

Crazy.

[A]

Crazy.

[B]

Yeah. God's cool.

[A]

That is very cool.

[C]

And now he's okay.

[B]

Now he's okay. He still has a kidney stone. Dang. Yeah.

[C]

Dang.

[B]

Could you imagine getting out of a major surgery like that? And they're like, I still have a kidney stone, though.

[A]

We didn't. We didn't just take care of it all.

[B]

Like, you're in there, right? Might as well, right? I don't know.

[A]

I. Oh, 100%. If I'm going, like, out, I would like to. I'd like to just wipe the whole hard drive.

[C]

We're on the same brain wave, dude.

[B]

I actually don't know what song that is. All three of you knew, and I did not know that one song. That is.

[C]

Yes, that's the bridge. Oh, that's a bridge for Ocean Avenue. It's one of the best songs ever.

[B]

It's.

[A]

It is. All of the energy of that song is the summer I turn pretty. I don't know if you guys have been into this cultural phenomenon, but the show on Amazon. Watch it.

[D]

You don't like it, or my wife's been on it, and every time I, like, pull in for a couple seconds, I'm like, what? What is happening?

[A]

It's what just is, like. It's just. It's funny when this stuff gets reinvented because I'm like, yeah, this is soap opera. It's a soap opera. This is it. This is ocean. It's on the beach. And it's dramatic for unnecessary reasons.

[C]

I think it's crazy that they could just take a show or movie, and then as long as they change the atmosphere or, like, the setting. Yeah, you're good. Like, it could be the exact same story, but it's like, oh, it's a coastal vibe. Or it's like inner city. It's like, yeah, it's the same thing. Stop nodding like that. What are you nodding like that?

[B]

Everyone be quiet.

[D]

Dude.

[B]

Buzzkill sure is kind of a conversation.

[C]

But whatever.

[B]

I would. I would love. So important, you know? You know.

[C]

I'm sorry. I didn't. I didn't realize.

[B]

This is a buzz kill. It's a real buzz kill.

[C]

Yeah.

[B]

But gosh darn it, if we don't get this done. Who are we? I don't know. Golly, it's. Yeah. You know what time it is, guys? It's time for the question. The hardest part of the show is this part. The thing that we despise doing, but everyone says, keep doing. I don't know why you guys keep saying keep doing this part. We started episode one, and I'll just get on with it. This question is just for Anthony. Oh, shoot. And I'm afraid to ask it.

[D]

I don't know what it is.

[B]

You guys can see it's really upsetting. Andy.

[D]

It's okay.

[B]

It's all right. We'll get through it, I guess. Today's question sent in by a viewer. Anthony, which political group is in the Right. Which.

[A]

Which political group is in. Is in there.

[B]

Yeah. Which political group is in the right? So, yes or no? Just kidding. It's not.

[A]

I think it's the. The Whig party.

[B]

What?

[A]

The WIG party. Are they still doing it?

[B]

They are.

[A]

I think they were like George Washington's party.

[B]

Oh, talking about the super racist party.

[A]

No, no, no.

[D]

I feel attacked.

[A]

No.

[B]

That's interesting. So they're in the right.

[C]

That's what you think.

[B]

The party that did not abolish slavery.

[A]

No, it was just. It was like a. I was trying to be silly.

[D]

My ancestors were building a railroad.

[C]

Time to be silly, Anthony.

[A]

I tried to do a.

[C]

We told you a million times how serious this was.

[B]

This is so serious.

[A]

I didn't.

[B]

People sending these questions, they don't want to joke around. They don't want to joke around. I guess you want to. All you want to do is joke around.

[A]

I was. I shouldn't have then.

[B]

Which political group is right?

[A]

Answer the question.

[B]

I don't think it's that hard. I have my opinions, but I won't say them.

[A]

I. I don't. I. I think they all are doing their best.

[D]

Oh, my gosh.

[C]

Yeah. The Nazis were doing their best, huh? Weren't they, Anthony?

[A]

No, I didn't.

[C]

They were doing their best. They're absolute.

[A]

They're not. They're not. Yeah.

[B]

The Communists, they really treat their.

[A]

Their people right in this. In. In my. In my head. They're not in this.

[B]

We're not moving on until you answer correctly.

[A]

Okay. What political party is in the right.

[B]

Yeah.

[A]

He. I'm so. I don't know. Like, I didn't know, and I didn't, like, research anything, and I did a silly answer and it made things worse.

[B]

Honestly, it's a really easy question to answer. No political group is right. They're all corrupt in some way. Only God's right. I thought you would have known that. I don't know. I guess you guys heard here first. Anthony just wants to joke around about politics and about Nazis.

[C]

At the Whig Party, he said they're in his head.

[D]

Their founder was a freeman.

[B]

Aren't you Jewish?

[A]

I am.

[B]

I'm sickened by this. You guys heard me at first. I already said that. All that. Welcome to the show. Did I say ninja? I meant butterfly. The butterfly is, no doubt one of God's most.

[C]

Empty. Your mind you. Yeah. Martial arts. Hey, Josh, you hear about our new sponsor?

[B]

I have and I'm very excited. Tell me more about it.

[C]

Andy Brunt Workwear. We are so excited because. Listen, we we love all of our sponsors, but this is special because we get a brand new pair of boots with these sponsors.

[B]

These boots were made for walking and talking and that's what we're doing now.

[C]

And that's just what we'll do because.

[B]

One of these days these boots, Brunt's.

[C]

Boots will be walking all over you. Listen, Brunt is sending us a pair of boots. I got the Omen pair, you got the Omen pair, Lily got the Omen pair and Andrew wanted to be different. So we got the Marin boots. But listen, you guys go to bruntworkwear.com you could check out not only do they have amazing high quality boots, they also have hoodies. They also have jackets, water resistant jackets. They have hats. I think we're getting a hat too, Josh.

[B]

Heck yeah.

[C]

I'm so excited.

[B]

I do love hats.

[C]

Do you?

[B]

Oh, yeah.

[C]

I think this is the first time I've ever seen you in a hat.

[B]

Really?

[C]

Yeah.

[B]

Oh, I thought I wear them quite often.

[C]

Yeah. But I was reading the founder apparently was just tired of just people having, you know, hard working jobs and the boots just stayed the same and a lot of the good boots became fashion brands.

[B]

Ew.

[C]

Ew.

[B]

A bunch of hipsters.

[C]

Yeah. It's disgusting. But not Brunt because they're, they're putting, listen, they understand that when, when you wear boots a lot of the time you have to like work them in. You gotta, you know, just like old baseball glove.

[B]

Yeah.

[C]

You gotta tie it up and put it on your mattress. Not Brunt, because their, their boots are amazing. And as soon as you get them out of the box, they're comfy, they're high performance, they're durable, they're heavy duty, baby. They got waterproof safety toe, soft toe pull on lace ups. That literally any type of boot you want. Oh yeah, Brunt's got it. And I'm literally, I don't work much, but I'm going to be working in these boots.

[B]

That's good. It's good to start working on stuff.

[C]

I mean, I work on some stuff.

[B]

But you're going to work extra hard now that you're getting some Brunt boots.

[C]

Yeah. I just feel like you're like agreeing with me too much. Do we have a discount form?

[B]

Do we have a discount form?

[C]

We sure do. If you go to bruntworkwear.com and you order your boots, guess what? You get $10 off your boots. It's going to be absolutely incredible. And after you check out, guess what? You can tell them that they're going to say, like, how'd you hear about this? And you could tell them Ninjas of butterfly sent you. So all you got to use the code that Ninjas go to bruntworkwear.com, use the code NINJAS for your $10 off, and BADA boom, bada bing.

[B]

Bada boot.

[C]

Bada boot. That's good.

[B]

Bada butt. Brute.

[C]

Brunt boot doesn't work. Not that time. You should just end it on the high note.

[B]

Yeah.

[C]

Thanks, Bryant.

[B]

Thanks, Bryant. My tummy hurts.

[C]

Oh, man. Well done. Well done.

[B]

We didn't have a. We just. I came up with a question. Like, whatever he says, we'll just be in opposition against.

[A]

So that was the whole. That was the whole track.

[C]

That was a whole track. There was no. There was no finish line.

[A]

Did we. Dude, have you ever. Did you guys ever watch the.

[B]

You ever have a dream?

[A]

Do you ever watch the Amanda bind show back in the day?

[C]

Yeah.

[A]

You watch the you can't win segment?

[B]

Oh, yeah.

[A]

I replicated that in my house all the time. She would just like. It was like a game show set up, and she would go, how many shoes.

[B]

Dude? RIP Amanda Bynes. She's not dead. She's just scary.

[C]

I think once you hit the face tattoo, there's just a lot of. You just can't come back from it.

[B]

That really shows you. There's a lot of child celebrities that just get really messed up.

[C]

Yeah. Well, it was. I mean, 100% what they did at Nickelodeon.

[A]

Oh.

[C]

Huge part of that. She was like their first, like, big.

[A]

Yeah.

[C]

Huge star.

[A]

Yeah.

[C]

And they took advantage of her in every single way, and it's just terrible.

[D]

Did you guys ever fact check the island in comparison to the logo? Is that actually a thing?

[C]

Oh, I don't know. Oh, like the foot? The foot?

[D]

No, Nickelodeon. Like the blob logo for Nickelodeon.

[A]

Oh, no, the bladder.

[D]

Yeah. I never fact checked that, but I saw a bunch of people were posting it.

[B]

Speaking of the island, you hear the victims? I guess we're just getting into it.

[A]

Yeah.

[B]

The victims of Epstein are coming out with their own list.

[A]

I saw. I just saw something about that this morning.

[B]

That would be a scary thing to do. And the White House administration, they put out a thing that if. I don't know that I only saw one news source, so don't come at me if this is wrong, but they said that if lawmakers release their own list, that is a hostile act towards the White House.

[A]

What?

[B]

Yeah.

[C]

That's insane. Yeah, if that's true, that's insane.

[B]

It was a Very left leaning media source I saw that from. So it could be skewed.

[C]

Yeah.

[B]

So I don't know.

[C]

Be interesting.

[A]

The. The going back one second. The child, like Amanda Bynes and seeing how that played out. The child celebrity, like whole thing is just like it's gone so poorly over and over and over and over and over and over again. And then we're always like, but maybe, but maybe this.

[C]

But this kid's got it.

[A]

But maybe this kid will get out of this.

[B]

At a really successful, interesting. Kind of looks like X marks the spot for creepy boys.

[D]

It's even got the like neighboring island.

[A]

Oh, boy.

[B]

They said it was like right next to like the Disney island, right?

[C]

Yeah.

[A]

Like the one they take cruise ships to.

[B]

Yeah.

[A]

What?

[B]

It was like right across the channel or something.

[D]

I'll look that distance up.

[C]

You must be guys this tall to ride guys.

[A]

I took a Disney cruise.

[C]

What?

[A]

I took a Disney cruise.

[B]

I did too. I was on the Disney.

[A]

Okay.

[B]

And I remember Goofy pushing me over on the Disney Island.

[A]

Overboard.

[B]

No, no, on the island.

[A]

Yeah.

[C]

Josh was thrown overboard by Goofy. We somehow never talked about it.

[A]

This is a headline story.

[B]

It's. It's. Now that I'm thinking back, it's actually crazy because there's a point where my parents are like, I had to been four. No, third. Third or fourth grade with my brother and my cousin. Like, just go do whatever. And so we're just roaming the island.

[C]

Yeah.

[B]

And then there's Goofy, you know, like the.

[A]

Yeah.

[B]

Character. And we're like pulling his shorts or something. Like just like tugging on his shirt.

[A]

Sure.

[B]

Get us attention. Turn around. He shoved me. I go right on my butt.

[C]

Dude, you don't listen. On Disney grounds, that's illegal. But in international waters. Do you have. Yes. It don't matter.

[B]

Yeah.

[C]

Those Disney rules go out the window.

[B]

Backhands me.

[A]

Goofy is a different, different kind of dog.

[C]

Black off. That's not fun. No, it's not fun. I'm so sorry for your trauma for that dude.

[B]

That's all right.

[C]

What if that came up?

[B]

EMDR's getting pushed over by Goofy.

[C]

He's there. That's why he's pushing me.

[B]

That's probably why I hate going to Disney.

[D]

There it is.

[B]

Yeah.

[C]

I mean, you had. Yeah. I mean, like, not to get too crazy, but you had one of your, you know, anxiety.

[D]

Oh, panic.

[C]

Yeah. Like right at when we went to the park.

[D]

So maybe that is the parade.

[A]

Went right past the barnstorm.

[B]

Like probably the biggest panic attack I've ever had in my life. Was at Disney.

[A]

Yeah.

[D]

I mean, that checks out.

[A]

That's what I was just going to say.

[C]

Hey, Josh.

[B]

Hey.

[C]

Yeah, Andy, are you tired of getting burned by your old wireless bill?

[B]

I sure am, and so is everyone else. But that's why everyone is switching to Mint Mobile Mobile.

[C]

[B]

Yep. And with Mint Mobile, you get the coverage and speed you're used to, but for way less money.

[C]

And I heard through the grapevine that you can use your own phone with any Mint Mobile plan and bring your phone number along along with your existing contacts.

[B]

That's true. And I could tell you if I needed this product, that's what I would use.

[C]

Totally. Our producer actually uses Mint Mobile and he says the coverage is way better than his old provider.

[B]

And he told me that he's blown away about how much money he said saving.

[C]

Absolutely. So this year, skip breaking a sweat and break in the bank. Get this. New customer offering your three month unlimited wireless plan for just 15 bucks a month at mintmobile.com ninjas.

[B]

Thank you, Mint Mobile.

[C]

Now.

[A]

Ninjas are butterflies. The fact that we're not all having panic attacks at Disney is the real weirdness.

[D]

Dude, I, I did that reel where I filmed It's a Small World and just switched the track. That place is scary, dude.

[A]

Bro, did you see the little. The, the doll they put in for the atomic bomb? Awareness?

[C]

No.

[B]

What?

[A]

What.

[C]

In a Small World?

[A]

I think it was the California one. And they put like, if you can pull it up, it's really, like, accessible. It was like. Because I want to say there's like a huge celebrity attached to this, like, advocacy group. But they were talking about it was like a little Japanese figure that was covered in dust and like, said, like, never forget the atomic bomb or whatever. People filmed it. They somehow got it into Disney. Got it in the It's a Small World ride.

[B]

Oh, Disney. Disney didn't put it up.

[A]

No, Disney didn't put it.

[B]

Okay.

[A]

I was going to say.

[B]

I was like, wait, yeah, that's where.

[C]

I was tripping to being a. Bring awareness to it.

[A]

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

[C]

Oh, it's horror.

[A]

When you said about it being Creepy. I'm like, dude, imagine you have no idea and you're just like, with your little kid. And you turn this corner, and that's.

[D]

A straight up grudge.

[B]

Yeah, like, right? That is right, dude.

[C]

They should make an opposite of Disneyland where it is something like, it's a. It's a small world after all. But it's like, terrible things. It's all the things through history.

[A]

Yeah.

[C]

You just have to slowly. It's just all these horrible moments in history.

[B]

1938.

[A]

Literally call it, like, the saddest place on earth.

[C]

But it's like. But it's like ghost Chronologicals. You're like, oh, no, we're headed to 2001, guys.

[A]

Let's back up.

[B]

It's a sad world after all.

[A]

All the characters are like Personas from tr.

[B]

There's no songs. It's just screams.

[C]

Screams and never forget in different languages. It's horrible, dude.

[D]

It's a minor melody instead of major.

[B]

Yeah. Oh, that would be. Speaking of scary, though, there was. I saw this video of these parents. They're bringing their daughter. Daughter to Disney.

[A]

Yeah.

[B]

And she fell asleep before they even got into the park. And they show clip of, like, them carrying her while she's still sleeping. And she woke up on It's a Small World ride. And she's just like. It's like, what's going on?

[A]

Yeah, that'd be so scary.

[C]

For real. Because it's already, like, scary whenever, like, you fall asleep in the car and you wake up in your bed, you're like.

[B]

You don't know where you are.

[C]

How did this happen? Yeah, I can't imagine that. Especially for the first time in your life, seeing all that.

[B]

First thing she saw said Japanese.

[C]

I will never forget this. I don't know why.

[A]

How could I forget?

[D]

Gonna tell you around the corner.

[B]

Oh, man.

[A]

They along those same lines. Did you see the horse, the little pony? At the children's hospitals they were using to wake kids up from anesthesia. It was a what? It's a pony playing a p. Like a xylophone. It's so it puts a little, like, stick in its mouth, and it just goes back and forth.

[B]

It's like nightmare fuel.

[C]

So they brought this into a hospital.

[A]

So the kids are waking up from anesthesia. Like, the anesthesia is wearing off. And this is the first thing.

[C]

That.

[A]

Is a fever dream pony.

[B]

Bro.

[A]

What is happening?

[C]

Who thought that'd be a good idea?

[A]

Kid just allegedly got his appendix out.

[B]

Oh, my gosh.

[D]

Somebody take that sound and make it like a. Like, audio. We do, like, phones. That's your alarm.

[A]

Yeah.

[C]

That's the definition of a fever dream. Yeah, like, you could, like, make that up. Like, oh, man. Is like, so horse with a xylophone. It's like, no, that's a real thing.

[A]

If you're a kid, you're like, dang it, I woke up in hell. That's what happened.

[B]

Up.

[A]

Why is this happening to me?

[C]

What did I do wrong?

[A]

No, no, no, no, you're. It's okay.

[D]

I don't understand that. Who hear. Who heard that and was like, book them.

[B]

Kids will love this.

[C]

Bring in the turtle with the trombone, please.

[B]

Speaking of hospitals, do you guys see what happened in Vegas?

[C]

Vegas hospitals?

[B]

No, just outside of Las Vegas. In the desert. They discovered 70 to 100 piles of cremated ashes in the desert. 70 to 100 piles of human cremated ashes.

[D]

Are we talking, like, per person? Like, small pile?

[B]

Yeah, like a pile.

[C]

Like, so they laid, like, they laid out 100 bodies and they just burnt.

[B]

Them all, or they burned them and then dumped all the bodies, but individually. Individually. Not like one pile, but throughout the desert.

[D]

It's like, ritualistic. That's weird.

[B]

Yeah. What?

[C]

And they have. No. Do they have any idea what. What it was?

[B]

No. So it happened in August. Passerby discovered dozens of piles of cremated human remains scattered along the dirt road in Nevada desert, just out 50 miles outside of Las Vegas. As of September, no charges have been filed, and authorities have not released further details about the ashes.

[D]

Well, because there's nothing in them. It's just.

[B]

Yeah.

[D]

There's no DNA.

[A]

It's just.

[B]

Yeah.

[D]

How do you even tell it's human?

[B]

I mean, they probably tested it.

[C]

You could definitely test it.

[D]

Can you?

[C]

Yeah, for sure.

[D]

I don't know anything.

[B]

Yeah, no. Yeah, you can definitely test that stuff.

[C]

Andrew's like, wait, start panicking. I gotta go. He comes back all just super ashy. So where were we? Speaking of hospitals, I literally have dust.

[D]

On me from the tile.

[B]

Isn't that crazy, though?

[C]

That is. I mean, I can't imagine how terrifying that would be to go out there and just like, this can't be what I think it is. And then.

[A]

Well, have you been to Vegas?

[C]

Yeah.

[A]

Like, it really. Like, that's. That's horrible. Also, like, I'm just, like, not surprised. Like, it's like you fly into Vegas and it's like, desert, desert, desert, desert, desert city. Yeah, it's like, yeah, they're doing shady. And it's like, they also, you know, they're doing shady stuff here. This is not like the Wholesome capital of the world.

[C]

No, no.

[A]

And like, it's just desert for miles in every direction. Yeah. Doing.

[C]

They're doing 70 to 100. And it's like, bro, you see that? And it's weird to me that it's different piles. Like, it's like they would have. Because how easy would it be to scatter ashes out in the desert?

[B]

Yeah.

[C]

How easy would that be? Like, it's almost purposeful.

[A]

I don't know. How easy would it be? Any.

[C]

I imagine it's pretty easy.

[D]

Just run through with a leaf blade.

[C]

Pretty easy. It's back of a pickup truck. Just shoveling it out every now and then. Hypothetically speaking. But I don't know. Like, that's the thing. I wonder. I mean, like, sure, there's maybe there's gonna be like, teeth or something where they can pull dental records, but.

[B]

Yeah. I don't know.

[D]

But I just.

[C]

Missing people.

[B]

It's actually. Actually illegal in Nevada to spread ashes.

[A]

Yeah. There's rules about that.

[B]

And so they did it 70 plus times.

[C]

Take this.

[A]

Accidentally did an illegal thing with that.

[C]

What?

[A]

Guys, this story before.

[C]

No.

[B]

No.

[A]

So, okay, we're gonna get a little sad. The beginning, because my dad died, and that was with the start of the process. And so then we. Then we cremated him. And we were like. Me and my brother were like, I don't know what to. He didn't have, like, a wish here.

[D]

Gotcha.

[A]

So we were like, let's just go to the Gulf of Mexico and we'll just let the ashes out.

[C]

Yeah.

[A]

And at the time, you're like, yeah, that sounds cool. Let's do it. So we go. But then you start getting into the practical of it, and you're like, well, how far out do we go with this? Like, what do we. I don't want to be like, up to my neck. That seems odd. So you were like, stingray shuffling out there. Whatever. And we do. It's like a. It comes in, like a bag.

[B]

Yeah.

[A]

And so we go out there and we do it. And first of all, there's loss against this.

[B]

I didn't know that.

[A]

You're not supposed to do this. But then we go out there and we're like, just have a nice moment or whatever. And we. We did. We undo the bag and kind of shake it all out. Oh, yeah. All the stuff's, like, sitting on the top of the water, and it just starts drifting away towards a group of people.

[D]

Oh, my gosh.

[A]

And I'm like, well, what do we do? I don't do I tell them that this is. So I just start, like, splashing water to try to, like, break it up a little bit in this, like, very kind of sweet, solemn moment.

[C]

Just became like, you beating your dad.

[A]

Please don't let this drift into that poor group of kids on rafts. And I think we broke it up pretty good.

[B]

Yeah, that's. I didn't know. It's illegal.

[A]

Yeah, it's not.

[B]

You're.

[A]

You have to, like. There's certain areas I think you're allowed to do it and not do it, but that's. So you cannot just go out into any random public place.

[B]

That's so funny.

[C]

It reminds me of Big Lebowski. Do you remember watching. You ever see that?

[A]

Yeah.

[C]

Whenever Donnie dies. And so they're out there spreading his ashes. John Goodman's character and what's his face. Jeff Bridges is behind, and it's just all blowing back into his. He's just.

[B]

That's right.

[C]

It's literally just covering his glasses, his whole face.

[A]

It's such a weird thing.

[D]

Dude. A pastor I used to work with got one of those random church calls for, like, hey, someone passed. Can you come say a few words? He thought they were going to bury an urn in the backyard. And they get out there, and, you know, she's about to do the thing. She's holding it. And he looks at the other pastor, the youth pastor that came with him. Pastor. Youth pastor. And they look at each other, and they're like, this is so weird. And when he looks back at the woman, like, for her to say a couple words, she has removed the lid, doesn't realize that windy day, and she just heaves it into the wind. And all of them just cover, like, up the nose in the mouth. So they both. They never went back to that house, but they both. Both throwing up, just running out of the backyard.

[A]

Oh, my gosh.

[D]

Someone they don't know.

[A]

Right?

[D]

Just like, let's do the. Let's go and be kind to this person who's clearly having a bad day.

[B]

Right.

[A]

Right.

[C]

But I'm like, no, dude, flush me down the toilet. Just flush me down the toilet.

[A]

That's.

[C]

I mean, there's.

[A]

I mean, you're on camera right now.

[C]

Yeah.

[A]

These are the final wishes.

[C]

Yes. Anybody who finds my ashes, please just flush me down.

[A]

What if you clog the toilet?

[C]

That would be great. I just. I just ruined somebody's house or. Yeah, I just. Oh, find, like. Like a. Maybe like a government building or something.

[A]

Oh, shoot, It's. The water's coming Back up.

[C]

The water's coming.

[A]

Back up.

[C]

Andy.

[A]

No, no.

[C]

Rest in peace. Your job is finished. I thought that was a ghost, but it's just Josh, just silly boy Josh. Oh, man. Oh, man. How was it?

[B]

I thought I had to puke for a second.

[C]

Oof. You're gonna puke. You're puking the trash can on camera.

[B]

All right, come on. I just farted, though.

[D]

Oh, it's gas pain.

[C]

I guess that's all of it.

[A]

It's everything that's normal for vitamins.

[B]

Speaking of gas.

[C]

Yeah.

[B]

This. We're a couple of weeks past when it actually happened, but the. The Chinese parade that recently happened.

[A]

Okay.

[C]

It was military parade.

[B]

Yeah, yeah. The. I forget what anniversary it was. Since World War II. How many years has it been?

[C]

It was 47.

[B]

75.

[A]

Oh, 19. Okay. I thought you said it was at 47 years. I was like, I don't.

[B]

300.

[C]

You know, I'm not good at numbers.

[D]

Was it 40?

[B]

Not 40? It can't be 40. Oh, you're saying 1940. Yeah, yeah. Did it. 1945.

[C]

It was like 47. 45 or something like that.

[A]

Wait, China did a parade 45?

[C]

Yeah.

[A]

For World War II.

[B]

Okay, so it was been, what, 70 years? That was. Where are we at? What, 70 years since 1945?

[C]

130. 80 years.

[B]

Okay, my tummy hurts. I can't do math right now. Anyways, it was crazy. They had, like, all these world leaders there.

[A]

Yeah.

[B]

Kim Jong Un came.

[A]

Okay.

[B]

Vladimir Putin came. Kim Jong Un took a train. So the flight from North Korea to China, I think it was in Beijing. No. Yeah, Beijing. I think the flight would have only been two hours, but he was insistent on his protection, and so they had built a bulletproof train that, like, goes only, like, 40 miles an hour because it's so heavy.

[C]

So how long it take him?

[B]

20 hours. Took him 20 hours. But he got there, and apparently Trump was invited to this thing.

[A]

Ok.

[B]

Didn't go. And it seems like his feelings were hurt because he was saying all this. He tweeted. He's like, hey, Gigi. He said, give my warm regards to Kim Jong Un and Vladimir Putin, because I know you guys are conspiring to the whatever, defeat the United States of America. And then Russia immediately came out, and they're like, what are you talking about? Like, no, we're not. And it just seems like they're, like, gaslighting. Like, we're not.

[C]

It's like high school, dude. It's like, yeah, go ahead to the party.

[A]

High school.

[C]

Go to the head of the party. I know you guys are gonna be talking about me. It's like, dude, no one's.

[B]

What do you not. We're talking about other stuff.

[C]

Yeah. We got other things going on. Not everything revolves around you.

[A]

Right.

[B]

I thought that was so funny. But they did catch on. Like a hot mic of Vladimir Putin and Xi Jinping. They were talking about immortality. Did you see this?

[A]

I know, just. That's wild. I literally just saw this.

[B]

Yeah. They were talking. When they're walking and they're talking about, you know, they're doing the experiments of the older you get, they just swap out organs for younger.

[D]

Literally.

[B]

Talk about growing organs and swapping them out. No. Yeah. Trying to reach that immortality. And then Gigi's like, we're for sure gonna have people around us that are gonna live to 150 years old.

[C]

What?

[B]

It was just a weird conversation, but.

[C]

This was caught on Mike in China.

[B]

Yeah.

[D]

And so there's no way. I. I would have thought it was fake, but BBC actually posted the transcript.

[C]

But yeah. There's no way that they didn't know that this was gonna get out, though, too.

[B]

Yeah.

[C]

Because they were broadcasting it. Right.

[B]

Yeah. Talk about small talk. They were talking about immortality.

[C]

You know, the casual stuff, catching up with old friends.

[D]

I kind of wonder if that's the new, like, Race to the Moon, though. So if they're, like, in a way, like, flexing on each other, they know. They're all working on it.

[A]

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

[C]

I mean. I mean. Yeah. I mean, we're already. We're doing things that, 100 years ago, medically impossible.

[B]

Yeah.

[C]

We have people in China, literally, robots carrying artificial wombs.

[B]

Yeah.

[C]

With real human babies.

[D]

The delivery apparently happens out of the robot, too. I saw that development. It's not just.

[C]

You haven't heard about this?

[A]

No.

[C]

It's gross, dude.

[A]

It's weird.

[B]

No.

[D]

They successfully grew a lamb, like, in a plastic bag, an artificial womb.

[A]

Okay.

[D]

But now they're carrying it in a robot that's AI powered. They're combining those technologies.

[A]

This is the Wild Robot. This is the story of the Wild Robot.

[B]

Yeah.

[A]

You guys seen this in theaters now.

[C]

Yeah. You haven't seen it.

[B]

This is a great movie. It's really.

[A]

That's what I mean. The robot raises the little duck. Yeah, right.

[B]

Goose, duck, goose. Oh, goose.

[C]

He was a goose.

[B]

Yeah, yeah, right.

[A]

Duck, duck, goose, goose.

[B]

Lily has a theory that Vladimir Putin has been doing this, and that's why he's so secretive about his health and that he's, like, 200 years old and Maybe a vampire.

[C]

Dude, it would be perfect. Perfect.

[A]

I feel. Don't you feel like the other stuff is falling apart, though?

[B]

What other stuff?

[A]

Like your back.

[C]

Yeah. Like, how are you replacing bones?

[A]

Right? Your hips going what?

[B]

BPC157. Peptides. I'm really into peptides right now.

[A]

Is this the vitamins you took?

[B]

Yeah, that's what I think. Certain. My stomach peptide.

[A]

Bismol.

[B]

Yeah.

[C]

I just realized if you, like, really started just diving in and just started retaining all this information, how unfamiliar with you I would be. Like, when you said those words, I was like, who are you? You're not Josh.

[A]

You're not my friend.

[B]

I've been looking into peptides because there's this peptide called BPC157.

[A]

Okay.

[B]

And usually peptides are like injections, okay. They're amino acids that help ignite other amino acids to help with certain areas of your body or whatever.

[A]

Right.

[B]

But this one's good for muscle, joint, and stomach issues. All right, stomach issues. But. But it seems like it's giving me bigger stomach issues. But this one's an oral one.

[A]

You might be my peptide.

[C]

Peptide.

[B]

You guys got to just skip that. Boring.

[A]

There's like, there's kids that. What is the. What's the Benadryl? Where, like, really, there's like one out of like 100 kids. It makes them insane. Like, it makes them all tired. And then one of them, it makes them like, dude, like cocaine wild. That's what you got with my dog.

[D]

Was like, that one passes out. We gave the other, had a panic attack. Gave her Benadryl. Yeah, she, like, it was scary.

[A]

Yeah.

[D]

She just went nuts in a thunderstorm.

[B]

There was. I saw a video, I don't know if it was real or not, of this mom saying she gave her like 10 year old Benadryl and he was one of those kids that made him absolutely crazy. And he went to the piano and never played the piano before. And, like, literally sounded like Mozart. He just like. It sounded amazing. And she's like, what the heck?

[C]

What in the world?

[B]

Benadryl is just a superpower.

[C]

Yeah, dude, why not?

[A]

Benadryl is that limitless pill from that movie for this kid.

[B]

So, Neo, speaking of US politics and politics in general, apparently French hospitals were told to prepare for war in Europe by 2026.

[D]

No way.

[B]

Yeah. So hospitals are gearing up for a war.

[C]

I mean, it's on the verge. This is like an official statement they put out. See the whole weird stuff with Trump being like, that happened a few weeks ago about, like, him Being out of the limelight. And then people are like, what happened? And then they. They put out the White House, put out photos of him golfing, which they dated back this spring and last year.

[D]

No way.

[C]

Yeah. And then. And then he came out and everything was fine. But then you had that big military period with all these world leaders. There's something, man.

[D]

Yeah, he's getting a new organ, dude.

[C]

Yeah, imagine. But you know how America's behind on everything like that, so they're just, like, trying to catch up. And now he's probably got, like, some, like, beef liver or something or appendix.

[D]

That's why. That's why he had to buddy up with Putin and all them. They got the tech he needs to live.

[B]

That was the meetup in Alaska to bring over an organ or what if.

[C]

It'S literally just a ploy? That's the reason why they let that audio go out out is so that Trump's like, I want a new organ. And then. And, like, they trick him and they're.

[A]

Like, boom, dude, that's really funny. Like, because of just the high schoolness of it all. Like, oh, you guys are talking about me. And then they all get together and they're like, Trump's so weird with this. Let's really mess with him.

[C]

Everyone's doing.

[A]

Everybody leave your mics on. We're having a chat about immortality.

[B]

Trump, I heard you needed a liver.

[C]

We all have new livers. You should get one. Okay, I will. And he shows up to school with a new liver, and they're like, loser.

[A]

Like, the bag and everything. Guys, I got a new liver. Just like you guys did.

[B]

Deliver from Cow.

[D]

Dude. The psychology of world politics can be summed up by the MySpace Top 8. It's the same thing a little bit.

[A]

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

[B]

The. That was. It was creepy, though, of just all those dudes just gathering up. And the military parade was insane. I don't know if you saw any clips of it.

[C]

Yeah.

[B]

Like, all the soldiers.

[C]

Yeah, dude.

[D]

They had choirs marching through with them.

[C]

I mean, there was like. I don't know if they're marching, but they're out there. And, like, it sounded. I could understand the language, obviously, but it was pretty impressive. But the thing is, compared to our military parade, which literally looked like a small town parade.

[A]

Yeah.

[C]

Where it's one thing after another. It's like these people, like, they really, really took it up a notch. It's just crazy, the different levels of, like, organization and planning that goes into it.

[A]

Because I wonder, too, if you, like, man, you join that you watch. You watch the movie Rambo and then you join the military and you're like, oh, yeah. Then they're like, here's our big job today. We're gonna. We're gonna stand in a line, gonna walk down this street. It's like, I've been training for years.

[C]

Yeah.

[A]

To be like a war machine.

[C]

I want blood on my face.

[A]

But what I'm gonna do is put on my fancy clothes and walk down the street.

[C]

Yeah.

[B]

Okay, listen to this. This is what it sounded like saying, comrades, how are you? And they're saying, chairman, how are you? It's been tough on you, comrade. It's not been tough. Chairman. Chairman. Not chairman.

[A]

Hey, Chairman.

[B]

Hey, Chairman.

[A]

Hey, the chair guys. The old guy, always sitting in a chair. A chairman over there. Yo, but I'm a king. I knew it was gonna come around, dude.

[B]

That's like old school communist stuff though, you know, like, that's what they used to do. But you haven't seen that. Like, that's what North Korea does a lot. But for China to do it with all these world leaders there, it was definitely a flex of like, some sort.

[C]

Netanyahu was there, right?

[B]

Oh, I don't think so.

[C]

I'm pretty sure he was, because I'll clip of, like, him, like, ignoring a different thing. Okay, got it.

[A]

They're always. The social calendar of these guys is endless. You're just. If you're not invited to a parade, it's a summit, you know?

[B]

Yeah.

[A]

It's an organ exchange where everybody kind of brings one and you share.

[C]

Yeah.

[A]

What do you need? What does he need?

[C]

Speaking of creepy things on the street, have you seen those? Because we talked about those kids that went missing, that have gone. Like, there's like 50 to 100 kids that have been missing in Virginia.

[A]

Oh.

[C]

Like crazy amounts. But not a lot of Amber alerts are going out.

[B]

Oh, yeah, yeah.

[C]

But this. And I thought it was like a made up thing because people are saying, dude, there's like ice cream trucks that are rolling through, like, town at night.

[A]

No.

[C]

And I'm like, okay, sure. But then it's like, no joke. Look at this. What.

[A]

Is wrong with people?

[B]

That's so scary.

[C]

And he just rolls on by and people are trying to do like close ups of, like, the driver and stuff.

[B]

Here he comes.

[C]

Two o' clock in the morning. Two o' clock in the morning.

[D]

That's not even. They got like sound ordinances. It's not even legal.

[C]

No, it doesn't even. I mean, it doesn't even look like A legit ice cream truck.

[B]

That's the problem.

[A]

Oh, makes me sick.

[C]

And a ton of people are talking about it, like different. Different neighborhoods and stuff. And it's like this has just happened randomly and people are posting on TikTok. Like, that's happening in my neighborhood.

[A]

No, if you. If you have a profession that caters specifically to kids, we're gonna villainize it and make it a horror thing.

[B]

Yeah.

[A]

You know what I mean?

[C]

Yeah.

[A]

Like the. The poor clowns for decades were just trying to bring joy to little kids.

[C]

Yeah.

[B]

And now their monsters, John Wayne Gacy.

[C]

And I can't wait for like, the Fortnite horror game.

[A]

And it's gonna.

[C]

It's gonna happen. It's gonna be like some type of Saw rendition of it.

[A]

Now some guy is gonna be like, yeah, I bought an ice cream truck. Go to the neighborhoods. Oh, you sick freak. Freak. Oh, I just bring snow cones.

[C]

It was a strawberry joke.

[A]

Spread joy to be nice.

[C]

Yeah, I bet. Yeah, I bet you creeping because they're afraid of you. Okay, Oakley.

[A]

Sorry. We had a. Okay, I had a story I was gonna tell you guys. So we had, like, a situation in our neighborhood last week where there was like a. We were, like, alerted. I'd never had this happen where there was like an active situation with like a car carjacking and there was like three cars and there was a pursuit, and it was happening in a park, like, really close to my house that we actually have an entrance to this park. So my. What. From what I could gather, I mean, we heard the helicopter, like, going round and round around, and we were like, okay, so typically they're looking for somebody. That's what they're doing. And then we get these alerts and all our neighbors are sort of texting. Worst possible scenario. We just bought a tent and we were trying to make sure we had all the pieces. So we had a giant tent set up in our front yard. And we start getting these alerts like, hey, there's some people trying to, like, run and hide, so we need you guys to stay indoors. And I was like, what do I do with this mask? And I like. So I'm like, hey, guys, you know, of course you're playing it cool around the kids. I'm like, hey, just go in. We'll just chill, watch a movie or something. But I'm like, this is the most suspicious looking thing that, like these. These sheriffs are flying down my street and they're all like, I can see them looking like, should we check this tent? And I'm like, no, don't check it. No, I'm so sorry. This is just a big misunderstanding.

[C]

Can we check your tent, please?

[A]

No. So then I go inside and then of course, like, you know, we. It kind of died down or whatever and I go back and then I like approach the tent real slowly like. Yeah, nobody's in the tent. Right. Like, we didn't. We did.

[C]

Okay, I have a gun come out shaking the.

[A]

That was my run in with my new tent I had the other day.

[C]

That's wonderful. You have like another story I think you told last time about like a helicopter search over your neighborhood too.

[A]

Yeah, that was my. Well, that was my. The guy that hit. Yeah, you gotta find. You had to find them toe. Them dogs. Yeah, that was my in laws house that happened in there. And this guy, really, this. I don't know who, I don't know the whole situation, but that's what I mean is there's three people total. It ended in one of my neighbors backyard. Them dogs. Them dogs were activated and that's how these people got found.

[C]

Yeah. Women can be thieves too. Don't limit them.

[B]

They have every right.

[C]

They have every right. I support them.

[A]

I know we're gonna lose followers over there.

[C]

Listen, I know you're listening and I know you're upset.

[A]

Women can be thieves too.

[B]

We support that.

[C]

Always have, always will.

[B]

You know, we also support.

[C]

What an ad.

[A]

Don't go anywhere.

[B]

In prime big deal days.

[A]

Este siet yocho de octubre aprovich.

[B]

Funny is my stomach stopped hurting and now it's hurting again.

[C]

You know why?

[B]

It's like we're almost at the beginning of the show.

[C]

You know why it's hurting?

[B]

Why?

[C]

Because you haven't ordered from Sunday Cool Teas yet. It's actually medically proven. If you don't order from Sunday Cool teas, you will just like create buildup within your bladder, your intestines, and really, it'll ruin your stomach. Doctors say it, I mean, it's because. It's because our Sunday Cool super soft shirts protect against all bad diseases and everything like that. And that's in our fine print. And you could take us to court on that. Even our hats, our stickers, we have a 72 hour turnaround, which medically is like 9 out of 10 doctors recommend. Yeah, yeah, because you can order as soon as you approve your art. 72 hours later, your order is on your way to you.

[B]

Wow.

[C]

It's incredible.

[B]

I wish someone sitting on the couch had a song about it. Hey.

[A]

Brava, sister. Sunday Cool. Sunday Cool. You don't order. You going to drool. Sunday, cool. Sunday, cool. Order right now or your pool. Go.

[B]

That was very good.

[C]

In this climate.

[B]

Anthony, was that your Indian accent?

[A]

I said, bruv. Which is. Which is a British thing.

[C]

And then Jamaican accent.

[A]

There was Jamaican, because Josh had mentioned.

[C]

That earlier, but then you went straight into Indian.

[A]

And then it got a little. Because I was just trying to.

[C]

It.

[A]

It's a callback to all of the ones we said.

[C]

Got it.

[A]

And for a moment, I was Christopher Walken, Arnold Schwarzenegger. He's in my house eating my cookies. From funny stories to conspiracy theories. Join us now, now, and you might get the willies.

[B]

Oh, good times.

[C]

That was such a fun ad.

[B]

Yeah, it was.

[C]

Can't believe Anthony. He's got a good singer, that accent, but. And a singing voice. But mostly the accent was kind of.

[A]

Borderline, sort of like how British people, when they sing, they sound American. That's. It's a similar experience to that.

[C]

That would be the funniest thing. An American person starts singing, and it's like a very Japanese accent.

[B]

It's like.

[C]

You can't blame me for that.

[A]

Did you ever see the British woman that had some sort of, like, the Asian accent? Yeah, she came out like a very.

[C]

It's a real thing. It's a real neurological thing, which really kind of makes your mind blown. Like, if you're a person, which that person did not seem like they probably know or practice accents.

[A]

How dare you? I mean, like, how dare you make that assumption?

[C]

But the thing is, you would have to really know the accent in order to just, like, do it. And so, like, going back to, like, God's creation. Like, what if there's, like. Like the Tower of Babel type of situation where it's like, there's something in our brain that could speak or.

[A]

Yeah, but she doesn't.

[C]

How does that happen?

[A]

What's even funnier, she's not speaking that language. She's speaking in an accent.

[C]

Yeah, but, like, how does that happen? Because it's an actual neurological thing, so.

[A]

Right.

[C]

I don't understand that. What? It blows my mind.

[A]

How.

[D]

Anime fan.

[A]

How specific is this? Like, are you one trip and fall away from being stuck in Arnold Schwarzenegger?

[C]

Yeah. For real.

[A]

You know what I mean?

[B]

If it could, we'll do it. This will be our question corner.

[C]

Yeah.

[B]

If you could go into a coma, wake up with a new accent.

[C]

I've already thought about that this morning.

[B]

Really?

[C]

Yeah. Australian.

[B]

All right.

[C]

There's a guy. He's a. He's a comedian. You probably recognize him, but his name's Luke Cook. He does a lot of silly videos. But his Australian accent is so, like, it just feels so good on my ears. I wish I had an Australian accent. I truly think they have the coolest one.

[A]

Yeah.

[B]

What about you?

[A]

I don't know. I, I, my brain doesn't immediately go regional. It goes like, specific. You know what I mean? Like, I wanna, I wanna talk like, oh, his name's Christopher Wall.

[C]

Christopher. Really? Yeah.

[A]

I'm just like, I feel like you have to listen to that guy when he talks, you know?

[C]

Truly.

[A]

Yeah, you're, you're leaned in, you know.

[C]

Give me your best walking.

[A]

I give you my best walking.

[C]

Ow. Ow. Two mice fell in a bucket. A cream. I can't do it.

[B]

That was good.

[C]

I like the.

[A]

It'S, it's. You can't teach it. Goldblum's got a great voice too.

[B]

Yeah, yeah.

[A]

Love Goldblum's voice.

[B]

It's just. Yes.

[C]

Yes, Very good.

[B]

Yes.

[A]

He's got a little bit of the guy from Love on the spectrum.

[C]

Oh, Tanner. Yeah. What's Connor?

[A]

Connor.

[B]

Connor.

[C]

Connor's great.

[A]

He's the Valkyrie. Connor, like, is in a perpetual conversation and when he vocalizes it, he's just picking you back up right in the middle.

[C]

Yeah.

[A]

You know what I mean? Like, you and I are like, oh, hello, welcome. I'm gonna start talking now. And Connor's like, like, it's, it's right there. He's already saying it. When he starts saying it.

[C]

I saw a video of a guy this morning at the DMV and he was like an 80 year old man. Yeah, but you know how people say, like, oh, we didn't have autism back in the day, but this guy is at the DMV and he's like, he.

[A]

Just got his picture.

[C]

He just got his picture taken. And I'm like, this guy has to be on the spectrum and not in a negative way at all. Like, he's just, he's matter of fact. He's, yeah, he's very loud. He's very matter of fact. He's like, did you get my picture? And she said, yes. And he says, is it good? She says, I like it. He says, good. He says, I am. Please don't interpret my tone as how I'm feeling. I'm just trying to talk. I don't like being at the dmv. And the person's like, I don't like being here either, sir. I was like, that's like, pretty amazing.

[B]

It's great.

[A]

What would you do, Joshua? What's your accent?

[B]

Oh, definitely Indian.

[A]

Oh, yeah.

[D]

That's good.

[A]

Yeah.

[B]

Just for the shock value.

[C]

Yeah. For real people or just a good cadence?

[B]

Hearing like white people with a Jamaican accent is the funnest thing, in my opinion.

[A]

Yeah.

[C]

But I don't feel like that would be as shocking for you. I mean, you literally have even some dreads in the back.

[B]

Yeah.

[C]

So, like, I feel like that's like. Yeah. Indian, I feel like, would really throw people off.

[B]

Or just Mongolian and just be able to do the throat singing.

[C]

Dude. Heck yeah.

[B]

What about you?

[D]

Probably go like something like Samwise Gamgee.

[B]

Just classic British little.

[D]

British. Little. You're not really British.

[B]

Yeah, yeah. Potatoes. Speaking of Lord of the Rings, I saw this interview with Elijah Wood when he was. It was like right when Lord of the Rings came out and he was at some red carpet event and what's his name? Jack. Jack Nicholson. Nicholson. Jack. Nick.

[C]

Jack Nicholson. Yeah.

[B]

Jack Nicholson went up to him, he's like, he's like, so what happens at the end? And he's like, he's like, you asked him like, if do I die? He's like, yeah. He's like, I mean, yeah. Some people interpret it as like me going to the land of the whatever.

[D]

Yeah.

[B]

As me dying. And he's like, I never made it to that part. And he's like, you didn't. He's like, too many endings. Too many endings. I left halfway through. It's like, okay. I thought that was so funny.

[C]

He's the best.

[B]

Yeah.

[A]

What was that? It was Return of the King. The third one.

[B]

Yeah, dude.

[A]

That. I was in the theater and that movie ended five times.

[B]

Oh, I know. I think that's what he was talking about.

[A]

Fade to black. And you're like, oh, okay, that's good. Oh, no.

[C]

Oh, we're still doing it.

[A]

We're right back. We just opened back into a different scene.

[B]

Yeah. But very fulfilling.

[A]

It is. It's like to me, Lord of the Rings is like a big meal. Tam Wyckoff, he. They re watch Lord of the Rings with some regularity.

[B]

Nice.

[A]

I'm like, I've never been able to do really. It's like a nice, big hearty meal that I ate. And I've never once been like, I'm prepared to get back into an 11 hour total cinematic experience.

[B]

Me and Lil try to do it once a year.

[D]

Same.

[A]

You do it once a year.

[B]

Yeah.

[A]

Yeah. It's the same as Tim try.

[B]

They do like, we try to do the hobbit and Lord of the Rings. Same back to back.

[A]

Tim went to New Zealand and I'm not doing a one up bit here. Like that's how committed. Like they love Lord of the Rings.

[B]

That's cool.

[D]

I do. That's a bucket list thing. I wanna. I wanna go to the Shire. I also want to build a hobbit hole in that lot I live on.

[B]

Yeah.

[D]

Just do like a. A container home.

[B]

Oh, yeah.

[D]

Dirt on it and see if it grows.

[C]

Dude, if you did that, that would be the coolest Airbnb.

[B]

Yeah.

[D]

I just gotta.

[C]

People would pay a lot of money for this.

[D]

It's a thing. But I just. I gotta look into the legality of like doing that.

[C]

Yeah.

[D]

Or that might be.

[A]

Don't.

[B]

Yeah, don't.

[D]

I keep talking about Wanted by.

[C]

I was there when I got here. We talking about.

[D]

Yeah, they just forgot to put it on the blueprint.

[A]

Not an air conditioned space. You know what I mean? I'm not adding it to the square footage of my home.

[D]

True.

[B]

Do you have a reel?

[D]

I got. Did you guys see this sound coming out of Pace Florida? People just were filming their neighborhoods.

[B]

Hit that beat.

[A]

Where's Pace?

[B]

Pace, Pace.

[C]

Pace.

[A]

Hold on.

[B]

Here's the pace. We got a reel.

[C]

Yes, we do.

[B]

And it's gonna be about Pace Florida.

[C]

Where?

[B]

Pace. Pace.

[C]

Pace Florida.

[B]

Pace. Pace. Andrew's got a real pace. All right. But yes, I have seen it. Yeah. It's crazy.

[D]

It is like. Like I know what it is. So it makes me feel a little more better about it. But if I woke up hearing this, I'd be terrified to.

[B]

Dude. Yeah. All right. I'm just going to hit it. Yeah.

[A]

I just called 911 and they said.

[B]

They'Ve gotten like over 15 calls about it. Just this loud grinding.

[A]

What is it?

[D]

And it sounds worse in the headphones. Like if you. If you actually like listen to the audio, there's like this weird. Almost like alive, like creak or whatever to it.

[B]

Yeah.

[D]

But I'm realizing I didn't take a screenshot of the explanation. It is a tripped steam line.

[B]

Oh.

[D]

In Santa Rosa County. Not Pace.

[B]

Steam line. So you do that.

[D]

I guess so.

[C]

Like an actual train.

[B]

A steam engine.

[D]

So it says early this morning, a steam line was tripped at the energy center off Sterling Way, creating a loud noise. It is pace.

[B]

Okay.

[C]

Weird.

[B]

Dude.

[D]

The panhandle is weird. Santa Rosa beach is different than Santa Rosa County. They're like opposite ends of the panhandle.

[B]

They just want us to believe it's steam.

[C]

I mean, they could Easily. Just say something like, where's the up close footage of this thing?

[B]

Yeah, right.

[A]

Okay. You took my appendix out kind of stuff.

[B]

Oh, yeah. You did an oil change. Where's the oil?

[A]

Okay. Your hands seem pretty clean.

[C]

I want to go home with the oil. The old oil. Give it to me. Just like my wisdom teeth. I want to see them. I want to bring them home.

[A]

I have jars of oil. I remember that. 30,000 miles.

[C]

Is it not my property? Come on.

[A]

Yeah. I take my grandson into a room. This. This. 10,000 miles here. This was a doozy. I gotta tell you.

[D]

Anthony, settle this. Real or not. Texted it.

[A]

Okay.

[D]

Bigfoot photo.

[C]

That's me when I get out of the shower.

[D]

Josh says it looks AI.

[B]

I mean, it looks like those videos you see. Like the.

[D]

Like.

[B]

It's because they're emulating jumping on the trampoline and stuff.

[A]

Oh. All the night. All the night vision stuff is. You have to be very.

[B]

Like you said, it's not fake.

[D]

It's not.

[B]

How do you know?

[C]

You say that with certainty.

[D]

Positive, not fake.

[B]

How?

[D]

Because I know. I know the guy. Who? I don't know the guy, but he's in one of the hunting groups I'm in. He posted it.

[B]

It's from his cam.

[A]

The fact that Andy said that's me when I get out of the shower.

[C]

You can see it though, right?

[A]

Killing me.

[D]

It freaked.

[C]

Kelsey just plops the towel over me.

[B]

Is it possibly a bear that just stood up and it like that's it glitched out.

[D]

Freaked. So when he first looked at it, it freaked. And then he posted the photo. And then this is. You can see the timestamps are the same on his camera. Oh, the next photo.

[C]

Weird.

[B]

That's scary.

[A]

But imagine perspective.

[D]

And so many times you only get one photo because like you can set like I want it to go in 30 second or minute intervals. If that was the only photo I had on my camera, I don't know that I'm going in those woods again.

[A]

I'm still spooked by the texture of that hair.

[B]

I know. Sickly bear hair.

[C]

That's crazy. It looked like a chimpanzee in a weird way. Yeah, that's strange.

[B]

All I can see is you. I'm cold. You okay? No, my tummy hurts.

[C]

I threw up in the shower.

[A]

Mom, I threw up.

[C]

I don't think I can go to school.

[A]

This is 8 year old Andy walking into the room.

[B]

Mom, I just flew up. That's the worst.

[C]

That would be so scary.

[B]

Yeah, dude. I was also good.

[C]

I Was thrown off because the text literally said, no, it's not a bear.

[B]

Yeah, I mean, the dude got a.

[D]

The dude was getting a rise out of the hunting group when he saw the camera. But I would do the same.

[B]

That's so fun.

[C]

That's hilarious.

[B]

Speaking of not fun.

[C]

Yeah.

[B]

This is a pretty old. Not old, old. Couple years ago, maybe. Do you see that interview with that astronaut? I believe he was part of the Apollo missions, and he had on record he orbited the moon like 70 something times in all his missions or whatever. And it was like on like Good Morning America or something. Just this old astronaut dude. And they're like. So the big question is, is there extraterrestrial out there? And he's like. He's like, I get to ask that question all the time. And he's like. He's like, they're not there, they're here. I've seen them. And they're like. They said what? He said, every time I look in the mirror. And they said, okay. He's like, the Anunnaki brought us here. We're aliens on this Earth. And they're like, okay, can you expand further, please?

[A]

Thank you so much.

[B]

But they cut it off.

[A]

Coming up next, three handbags you have to get this fall.

[C]

Thank you, Mr. Astroman.

[B]

Yeah, he just, like, went into this whole thing. He's like, yeah, I've seen an alien. He's like, every time I look in the mirror, he's like. And then he started going into the whole. Anunnaki brought us here. They created us here. And he's like, we're all aliens on this Earth. We don't belong here. And they just moved on. They're like, okay, we're done. I'm like, question them more.

[C]

Let's have a.

[B]

The man's been to space. He has to know something.

[C]

Do you remember his name?

[A]

Wild.

[B]

No, how old?

[C]

Golly.

[B]

I mean, it had to have been in his 80s.

[A]

What was that? Anunnaki? Is that what he said?

[B]

Yeah, that's like the Sumerian stories where the Anunnaki were basically what we equate to were the Watchers.

[A]

Okay?

[B]

But the whole Sumerian thing is that they came down, they live on this one planet that comes close to our planet every thousand so plus years or whatever, right? But they come and their whole thing is their atmosphere was burning up. And so what they're doing was collecting gold from Earth because gold, or Earth has a ton of gold, and they basically bred humans to be slaves to collect the gold, to give to the Anunnaki so they can bring it to their planet and stop. From their planet.

[A]

Huh?

[B]

Yeah.

[D]

It's like another version of the star people in that region's.

[B]

Yeah.

[D]

Version of our thing. But, yeah, it's terrifying.

[A]

I'm obsessed with that happening on some sort of like, Hoda segment on Good Morning America.

[B]

It was crazy, though.

[C]

Yeah. I mean, I don't know. I always get kind of weird vibes from, like, whenever you see the Neil. Neil Armstrong team, they get interviews before and then they do the interview after and they're all.

[B]

All of them mad, sad.

[C]

They look like their life was sucked out of them.

[B]

Yeah.

[C]

Just like they're like the most upset they could have ever been. And like, you guys went to the moon. What are you doing?

[B]

Yeah.

[A]

Okay. It was weird, but Katy Perry went to space.

[B]

She did.

[A]

And she was so cheery when she came back.

[C]

That's true. So what does that mean? Katy Perry is Anunnaki.

[A]

Anunak. I was just gonna say yes.

[B]

Have you.

[D]

Have you thought about, like, her whole testament of what she came back? And like, that weird crap, though, is like what DMT people say too. It's like the same sort of like, I just had this overwhelming, like, experience and love was poured out.

[C]

What if they just had, like, just LSD right before they started the capsule and it's like.

[A]

That's what I mean. I don't know.

[B]

I would doubt it, honestly.

[C]

Yeah.

[B]

Yeah. Good.

[A]

Fool. I felt like I brought this up last time I was here, but that was an odd experience.

[B]

They're all acting very strange and they.

[A]

Kept, like, cutting, like they couldn't keep a live feed from Texas.

[B]

Yeah.

[A]

And they're like. We. We were watching it, like, what? This is cutting out every. Why are you acting like you're in some, like, remote. You're in Texas.

[C]

Yeah.

[A]

You surely.

[C]

Yeah. We had a landline phone call from the moon with Nixon. Who was it?

[B]

Yeah.

[C]

What is happening?

[A]

And then the Katy Perry thing. I'm sorry if I brought this up last time, but the Katy Perry thing landed and the door flew right open.

[B]

Yeah.

[A]

And then they, like, closed it so Bezos could, like, ceremony open it. It was really odd. I don't. Again, I don't know that I'm. I don't know really. To what end?

[B]

To what end, but don't know that reference.

[A]

What?

[B]

I don't think I do either. Dude, what is this?

[A]

All time favorite. You guys gotta watch this, like, right?

[C]

Was that on the Saturday morning cartoon show that you.

[A]

No, it's my Life is not a joke. Okay, Now, I'm not gonna remember her name, but it's to what end? Oh, my word. She was on Saturday Night Live. Maya Rudolph.

[C]

Oh, okay.

[A]

Maya Rudolph. To what end is a clip you should watch?

[B]

Okay.

[A]

Like, right this time. Let's just do it right now, because it is.

[D]

I think. I think you got to pull that up because I don't even know what I'm looking for.

[A]

Oh, my gosh. Okay. I will do this because I watch this once a week to bring my spirits up. I think it's one of the greatest 30 seconds of a comedic performance of all time.

[B]

I mean, what was cool about Katy Perry going to space, though? Wasn't. They didn't even. Like, they went. Sure, they went to space.

[C]

Yeah.

[B]

But they were taking up space.

[C]

Yeah.

[B]

As women.

[C]

They made space.

[B]

They made space, man.

[C]

They took space.

[B]

They took space. They claimed it.

[C]

Yeah, they did.

[B]

For women.

[C]

And they were so mad when people called them not astronauts.

[D]

I know.

[C]

Did we?

[B]

Here we go. Ready?

[A]

Some people say global warming is a.

[B]

Hoax perpetrated by the Chinese.

[C]

But I say, show me the receipts.

[A]

Because why would Xi Jinping want to.

[B]

Flood my basement and rest my Bowflex?

[A]

To what end? To what end? To what end?

[B]

Give me.

[A]

My basement and rust my do.

[B]

That is good.

[C]

She's so good. Dude, that new SNL cast is crazy.

[B]

Oh, yeah. Very excited about it.

[C]

I'm so excited. Veronica is cool is going to be on there.

[B]

Yep.

[C]

Cam Patterson. I don't think.

[A]

I know.

[D]

I don't think I've ever watched a full on start to finish EP of snl.

[C]

Oh, man, me. Kelsey used to watch it religiously. It was Jimmy when me. Like, before we had kids, it was Jimmy Fallon and SNL every single Saturday night.

[A]

I. I did too. And I. I do have to say, though, like, your version's better because there's a lot of sketches that you're like, will never be talked about again, and they just have to fill two hours. Or is it three?

[C]

I think it's an hour and a half.

[A]

I think it's a lot of sketches. So, like, there'll be two stellar ones.

[D]

Yeah.

[A]

So the way I used to also, like, you'd stay up and watch them in that. But the version now where you kind of like, just chill until one of them is like, like, you got to see the Nate Bargazi Washington sketches.

[B]

Like, yeah, yeah, yeah.

[D]

That's like, if I log into YouTube and I see an SNL, I'm like, whatever. And I'll keep watching what I do. And by the, like, third time I'm back in YouTube and it's like, hey, yeah, watch this. The algorithm is screaming at you. But, yeah, okay.

[A]

Okay, that was a good one.

[B]

Yeah. Speaking of Arunaki, I literally have a story that's has to do with like, the Watchers and stuff.

[C]

Oh, okay.

[B]

Very, very interesting topic I came across.

[C]

Let's go.

[B]

So I've been listening to this podcast recently called Lord of Spirits. It's these two Orthodox priests and they dive into all the obscurity stuff of the Bible. So, like, angels, demons, giants. And I'm listening to this one episode right now. I think it's the land of the giants or something. It's really cool podcast. It's very informative. It's not all flashy and stuff, but like, I mean, the knowledge these dudes have is insane. And it's like, dude, everything they talked about lines up like identical with what Dr. Michael Heiser talks about.

[C]

Okay.

[B]

Except I thought find it fascinating because the Orthodox. Eastern. Eastern Orthodox theology and stuff, they say that they trace it back to, like the early Church, you know, So I find that even more interesting that they're talking about the stuff that lines up so much with Dr. Michael Heiser's findings and whatnot. With giants.

[C]

Yeah.

[B]

But they mention in this thing that in regarding the Watchers and the Nephilim and like, how Nephilim were made, there's this verse in Deuteronomy 3, verse 11, talking about King Og. So this. I'll just read it for Og, the king of Bashan was left of. Was left of the remnant of the Rephaim, which were a giant clan said, behold, his bed was a bed of iron. It is not of Rabba or. Or of the Ammonites. Nine cubits was its length and four cubits its breadth, according to the common cubit. So it's describing his giant bed.

[A]

Right.

[B]

Which to us, that's like. That's just kind of weird that they threw that in there. And they said, well, there's some context to that. In ancient Mesopotamia and ancient Canaan, they had this ritual to where they believe the watchers or the angels would come. Come, and they would perform these ceremonies on these certain type of beds. And that's how these Nephilim were produced like this. It's a very. But it was like, historical context. He's like, if you read that without knowing the historical context of, like, what actually was happening. So that's exactly what they're describing, was this ritualistic thing describing the bed.

[A]

Yeah.

[B]

And he Just briefly mentioned. He's like, yeah, the emperor of Japan still does it. And I'm like, really? I said, hold on. And like, yeah. He's like, it's crazy. I'm like, I gotta look into this.

[C]

Yeah.

[B]

So in Japan, there is this thing. It is called. Forgive me of my pronunciation of these Japanese words.

[C]

Do it in the voice.

[B]

Revving up. Okay. So it's this ritual called the Dai Josai. And basically that is. Where is it called? It's like. It's this ritual, the daijozai. So anytime an emperor comes into power, what they do is they have these two. They erect these two huts. And in these huts, there's a bed and there's rice sake. And this tradition has gone on since 600 BC and the emperor now, he was. This actually happened in 2019. This new emperor came into power. But they trace their lineage back to the first emperor of Japan. It's the longest reigning monarch in history.

[C]

Wow.

[A]

Oh, wow.

[B]

And. But they believe that they are a direct descendant of their sun goddess, which. Her name is Rebecca. Sunny. No, I'm just kidding. It's not Sunny. Her name is. Oh, where is it? Give me a second. Okay. Amati raso. Amatiraso.

[C]

Okay.

[B]

And that is their sun goddess. And they believe that she came to Japan and that she conceived a son, and this son gave birth to another son and then another son, and that. So that son, that third son, became the first emperor of Japan.

[C]

Wow.

[B]

And so this ceremony, the Daijo sai, is a ceremony that no one knows what happens in there, only the emperor and the priests that perform it. But what happens is he goes into this tent and he's supposed to interact with the sun goddess to receive the blessing and the power to rule over Japan.

[C]

Yeah.

[B]

But they're saying the rumor is there's some weird, creepy stuff that happens because there is a bed in there.

[A]

Yeah.

[B]

And that it mimics almost exactly what they used to do in ancient Mesopotamia and Canaan.

[C]

Sure.

[B]

And I just found that incredibly interesting.

[C]

Yeah. And they're still doing it.

[B]

Yeah. And I try to look into, like, what it was Japan's religion, you know, like, going back to, like, way back to the B.C. era. And it's like they don't have a religion. They don't, like, practice a religion, but they do have deities that they worship. And it's like different deities, different. Different things. But, like, there's, like, a river deity, a mountain deity, and. But they even talk about these angelic, like, beings coming down and being, like, these great men. And I Just thought, I'm like, this is so fascinating.

[A]

Yeah.

[B]

That in today 2019, the Japan of emperor entered this tent.

[A]

Yeah.

[B]

To talk to their sun goddess. Because that is. He's a descendant of the sun goddess.

[C]

Yeah. There's got some.

[B]

They eat together supposedly. And they drink sake and then there's. Whatever else happens.

[C]

Yeah.

[D]

Well, did you see the connection with the cave and the sun goddess?

[B]

No.

[D]

So, like going along with what you're saying, apparently in their. Their mythology is that they call it the Shinto religion. And so she's a central figure of Japanese mythology. She is the ruler of the celestial plane, provider of light and warmth world. At some point in the history, her brother defiled the celestial plane and it caused her to need to go into hiding. And she went into a cave, which is another theme we see with these sort of unions. But apparently she was lured out. They put like mirrors and gems in a tree.

[B]

Yeah.

[D]

Pulled her out. But. But along with that there was a provocative dance done. And so basically the idea of enticing this woman deity and it's just. It's just weird that there is always a. I'm just trying to be careful for the kids listening. But there's. There's always something like that tied with. And then the cave angle is weird.

[B]

Yeah.

[D]

We see a lot of those angelic unions being driven into caves.

[B]

Yeah. And what's interesting things, the emperor has always been held as a God figure. Like they are a divine being. And it wasn't until World War II ended.

[A]

Yeah.

[B]

That they basically had to sign the U.S. forced him. Like the emperor has no divinity. So. Yeah, the emperor has no divinity. But they still. They're like, yeah, he does.

[C]

They did that war too.

[B]

Yeah. After World War II, they had. When they're part of their treaty thing had to do with the emperor and he basically had to come out and say like, yeah, I'm not a divine being. I'm not God.

[C]

Really.

[B]

Yeah.

[A]

I guess I've never heard that sounds like the one from the Santa Claus where the cops are like Scott Calvin. And he's like, no, that's. But they. That's like very common though with ancient civilizations. Right. The pharaohs thought they were descendants of gods.

[B]

Yeah.

[A]

They were like. Well, they thought they were gods.

[B]

Yeah.

[A]

Because of that. Is that also my question? Because the flag for Japan, that's the sun right in the middle.

[D]

Yeah. I didn't even think about that.

[B]

I didn't think about that either.

[A]

Yeah, that's a thing.

[B]

Google.

[A]

In the meantime, you're you listening to Some fancy cool podcast that gives you Bible insights. And I just thought, since I'm the Bible's funny, I'll give you a Bible insight I just found the other day. I haven't even talked about anybody with this.

[B]

Cool.

[A]

So this is. This is hot off the press, and I would say it's equal to this kind of like academic, really thoughtful stuff. Okay, so it comes from the book of James. James, chapter one. You can, if you go to verse 21, it says, therefore get rid of all moral filth and the evil that is so prevalent and humbly accept the word planted in you, which can save you. But if you check the. A different translation and you go to the King James version, which I'll scroll down, it says, lay apart all filthiness and the superfluity of naughtiness.

[B]

No way.

[A]

Which I just think is a funny word.

[B]

Super fluidity of naughtyness.

[A]

Yeah. I was looking at that verse the other day and I. I stumbled on it and then was like, I wonder. I. I somehow looked at the other translations. I found the phrase super fluidity of naughtiness.

[B]

Super fluidity of naughtiness. You are.

[C]

That's a great band name. Fluidity. Naughty Naughtiness.

[A]

Super fluidity of naughtiness.

[C]

Yeah.

[B]

For like, fluidity. Yeah.

[A]

Or fluidity, I will say the KJV is flu I t Y.

[D]

Interesting.

[A]

Super fluidity of naughty.

[C]

Take that back, Andrew.

[B]

Yeah, take it back.

[C]

So when we started there, it was flutes. Oh, playing flutes is sinful. Interesting.

[A]

Nuts. That's as simple as naughty.

[C]

Yeah, that's right.

[A]

Superfluity of naughtiness. Somebody translating in the King James version.

[C]

Was just like, really having a good time.

[A]

I'm going to crush with this one.

[C]

Finally I can use my words.

[A]

You could use the word filth or. I have an idea.

[C]

Fluidity.

[A]

Superfluity of naughty.

[B]

Superfluity of naughtiness.

[D]

So this is the Japanese flag.

[A]

Yeah.

[D]

The one with the rays is the navy flag. But this red circle is for that sun God is the establisher.

[B]

Wow.

[D]

Family.

[B]

Interesting.

[C]

What's white stand for? Symbolically?

[B]

Probably purity, because that's part of the whole thing is purity. That's like there. There's no sin. It's just remaining pure and clean. Clean and not superfluity of naughtiness.

[A]

I sense a spirit of superfluity of naughtiness in this room.

[C]

Cyril Sassy King.

[B]

Yeah.

[D]

Purity, honesty and integrity.

[A]

Yes.

[C]

Nice.

[D]

Nice.

[B]

Podcast is amazing, though. I'm learning so much from this.

[C]

Cool. How'd you find it?

[B]

I heard someone talk about on TikTok I'm like, I'll check it out.

[C]

Cool.

[B]

Yeah. But there's. I mean, I'm learning so much. I mean, they provide so much context. One part that stuck out that was crazy, too. He's like, people always brush over the genealogy stuff.

[D]

Yeah.

[B]

And he's like one very interesting take in Esau's genealogy. Because they can direct or. Yeah, direct. Basically, a lot of these giant clans, some of them, like the Canaanites. Right. Come from Esau and. Or part of them do. But there was talks about. It was in the genealogy of Esau. It mentions a concubine, and it says this concubine, I forget her name was the brother of. And it starts with a name that starts with L. But he's like, the translation to that name is Leviathan.

[D]

Whoa.

[C]

Interesting.

[B]

Yeah. So in Esau's lineage, you mix in Leviathan, whatever that means, you know, and it's just. I don't know.

[C]

Yeah, that's super cool. I mean, just. Yeah. The more you can learn about it, the better.

[D]

Jacob. I loved Esau.

[B]

I hated Romans 9 because of that one lady whose sister, whose brothers with the Leviathan.

[D]

It is if you. Haman Mordecai, though, if you track Haman, his, I believe, from his mother's side. She's descended of the people of a valley in Canaan. And so you think about just the height of the gallows. This is me just throwing stuff out there. But, like, people are like, it's so big, you know, like they're like 50 meters or something is the approximation. But I believe, however many times removed on his mother's side was descended of a valley in Canaan, which was referred to the Valley of Giants. Yeah. So it's. I mean, the more like you start. That's the thing. When we started this podcast, I was like, I don't know about all of this. And as I'm like, reading stuff is like.

[B]

Yeah.

[D]

I'm like, well, maybe you go to the original language. You're like, well, now it's probably.

[B]

Yeah.

[D]

You know, it's like getting more and more. Sure.

[B]

And that's what he's. They're trying to say in this podcast. He's like, the context of a lot of the stuff in scripture. They knew everything. It's like the Genesis 6 part where the. The sons of God came and made it with the daughters of Eve. They knew the whole story behind that.

[C]

Yeah.

[B]

And he says everything was carried down oral tradition until somebody wrote it down so they wouldn't forget it and that could be passed down even further. And so that was just like a little reminder. Hey guys, Remember this part?

[A]

Yeah.

[B]

So like. But there's. Everyone knew of the bigger story, which you could argue was possibly first Enoch.

[C]

Yeah. You know, and when people hear oral tradition, they always, like, nowadays we just don't have that. We don't have to rely on that. But you look at that one. That one family.

[B]

Native Americans.

[C]

Yeah. One family in Georgia.

[B]

Oh, yeah.

[C]

Brought a. Like a language and song that they used to sing hundreds of years ago in South Africa. But there's a family in Georgia that has passed it down orally, where it's like the smallest mispronunciation is like the biggest no go. Like, you can't do that. And so they studied that and it's just. It's just the coolest thing because they're like back in the. Like, you have to know. There was no like, like, oh, this is just. In my own words, this is what happened.

[B]

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

[C]

It's so different. And I think that's. I just think I brushed over so much.

[B]

I think we talked about the Navajo tribe. They do the. The drum circle. Right, right. But that's their telling of their history.

[D]

Yep.

[B]

And it takes like a whole day to sing these songs.

[A]

Right, right.

[B]

And they're so strict about their oral. Oral tradition that if one person messes up a word, they have to start all over.

[A]

Yeah.

[B]

And so like oral tradition back then was like probably one of the most sustainable, like communication methods, you know.

[A]

Oh, right.

[B]

Or like storytelling.

[C]

It's an easy way to test it as well, because you can simply just go to another tribe or another group of people.

[A]

Right.

[C]

And if they're saying the exact same thing word for word, because they've been. It's like, it's hard to mess that up.

[B]

Yeah.

[C]

That's awesome. I love that.

[B]

It's something that they also mentioned that I'm like, I want to look into, which I thought was really interesting. So the orthodox, they have like first and second and I think third Maccabees in their Bible, which we know it's not in our canon as Protestants, but they mention of how the Maccabee brothers basically were trying to get the Spartans to help fight whatever empire they're up against. I think. Is it the Babylonians or the Romans? No, they allied with the Romans.

[A]

Yeah.

[B]

But they're allying with the Spartans. And there's like they said there's this brief passage in Maccabees, I believe. I've not read it. But the Spartans believe that they were also descendants of Abraham.

[D]

Whoa.

[B]

And so they're like, oh, we have this in common. So, yeah, we'll help you.

[C]

Yeah.

[B]

I'm like, what? Whoa, 300. Come on, sons of Abraham.

[C]

This is far.

[A]

Could you imagine.

[B]

That's funny.

[A]

Could you imagine, though, being there and, like, maybe not agreeing with that take? Yeah, this is what I'm imagining. Right. I'm a Maccabee, and I'm like. They're like, yeah, we're sons of Abraham, too, so we'll help you. And you're like, no, okay.

[B]

Yeah. Oh, yeah, I forgot, brothers, you're totally.

[A]

Rolling with it at that point. Like, that's. Yeah, it sounds right to me.

[C]

Put down your spear.

[A]

Brother. Hug me. Brothers, hug.

[B]

The Israelites are looking at each other.

[A]

Like, I don't think that's right. But, yes.

[B]

Okay, That's. I totally forgot. I'm so sorry.

[A]

That's not me. Yeah.

[B]

Spark. Spark.

[C]

I thought it was. I thought it was. We always pronounce it different that I. Now I guess it. Yeah, I get it.

[D]

Oh, I've never wanted to read Apocryphal more.

[B]

I know.

[A]

I. I've had that on my list for. I did Enoch finally because I was hanging out with you guys too much. And I do want to do Macabees and stuff, too.

[B]

Cool story.

[A]

I haven't done the Thomas either. The.

[B]

Yeah, everyone disagrees that one, though.

[A]

Yeah. Everyone throws that out. And then there's a Mary Mag Magdalene one, I think.

[B]

Yeah. I think they throw that out, too.

[A]

Yeah. A lot of people throw a lot of. A lot of these out.

[B]

Yeah.

[A]

Enoch is the one that's been around for super long. That one's hard to just like. Yeah, that's a lot of stuff around that one to be like. It's been. It's been brought along for.

[B]

It's interesting.

[A]

Yeah. Thomas and Mary, I know, are traditionally like, yeah, everybody's on the down. But I also still kind of want to read them. Right.

[B]

Yeah, why not? I mean, they've been around for a while, right?

[A]

This has been around at least a long time.

[B]

Yeah.

[A]

One of them's got the stories of Jesus as the kid. I don't remember. Maybe that's.

[C]

That's.

[B]

Speaking of that, did you hear.

[A]

See that Nicholas Cage movie, the Car?

[B]

Was it Carpenter?

[A]

The Carpenter's Son?

[B]

That looks so scary.

[A]

I think we're gonna go do it. Do you want to do it? Live with us?

[D]

I don't know.

[B]

I don't know if I want to see that.

[C]

It's a horror movie.

[A]

I know, I think we're gonna.

[C]

It's gonna be great. I don't know what the premise is or what. I don't.

[B]

I mean, I'm afraid it's gonna be crazy.

[A]

It's gonna be insanely disconnected to anything. Like.

[C]

Yeah, it's gonna be interesting. I want. I'm waiting for, like another trailer to come out because that's just the teaser right now. So I want to see like. Like, what's the plot?

[A]

Tim and I talked about going in theaters to see that one and then doing like an immediate.

[B]

Nicolas Cage's casting is hilarious, though.

[A]

Wasn't he in the Left Behind? They did too. Oh, yeah, yeah. He's making the transition to Christian movies slowly.

[B]

At first we thought that Nicolas Cage was playing Jesus.

[A]

Oh, he's not.

[B]

No, he's Joseph.

[A]

Oh, okay.

[B]

Yeah. But we were joking around, like, blesser.

[A]

Are you.

[D]

What if we could get him on the show?

[B]

Amigos Cage. I mean, that would be awesome.

[C]

I mean, we could.

[D]

Your invite whenever. We'll film whenever.

[C]

Yeah, I'm telling. We. There's. I mean, there's a lot of movie stars that are going on pods to promote movies now. Yeah, we've got to shoot our shot. I mean, Melissa McCarthy follows us. I mean, we gotta.

[A]

Somebody know. Somebody who knows Nicholas.

[C]

Yeah, for sure.

[D]

Just have Lily move the pillow from the corner. And he's in the couch.

[C]

We could never tell Lily, though. We could never tell Lily. Lily. We'd have to surprise her.

[B]

We, like, carved out the couch and just put his face in the pillow.

[C]

Hey, can you change his face? You know, hey. Hey, Lily.

[A]

So he put. I haven't seen. I'm sorry. I got sucked into the story. I actually haven't watched the teaser yet. I was just already like, looks scary. This is such a thing. Okay, so he plays Joseph and then the. The shtick is like the carpenter's son is like, he.

[B]

It's about Jesus when he was a child. And like. Like the way that I think they spin it is like he's like starting to get the powers of God basically, and like it. But it's like it. It's like this battle and he's just like. He's doing scary stuff. Yeah, just like.

[C]

But it looked like Satan was like.

[B]

No, that wasn't Satan, that was Mary.

[C]

That was Mary.

[B]

Yeah, Satan.

[A]

Such a great little snippet. I was very.

[B]

Oh, no, she's playing Mary. Scary.

[C]

What? I just got to figure out more about this movie.

[B]

I guess the lady without the eyebrows. Yeah, Yeah.

[A]

I hate that they're really legit, like, doing the Christian movie podcast and stuff. There's such. There's like, a legit market of, like, just very intentionally making Christians upset.

[C]

Yeah.

[A]

Like, that's the whole. We're just being reckless to be reckless because we know that's. You guys will hate it, and that will give us press.

[B]

Yeah.

[A]

And then some people will be like, yeah, I'm gonna go watch it now.

[D]

That's how the art industry defines good art, is it?

[B]

It.

[D]

The more it moves you, the better it is. And I'm like, it's pretty easy to get someone ticked, right? I was like, that's not good.

[A]

What's his name? There was a singer that was, like, living on it for a while. He put, like, a drop of his blood in a MGK skateboard or something. Lil Nas X. Yeah. Thank you. That's who I was thinking of. I think MGK did that too, but.

[C]

Because he's done the Jesus stuff, like.

[A]

Guys just stop responding at some point. Like, it's just.

[C]

He's just poking my whole thing, and I sound like a broken record. But it's like, why are we expecting these non Christians to act like Christians? Why are we surprised? Like, it's crazy that, like, every single time something happens, we have to have outrage over. It's like, you should be expecting this. This is happening.

[A]

This is gonna happen.

[B]

Live in an evil, broken world. It's gonna happen.

[A]

Well, and that what gets me is, like, you're a pawn in a marketing game at this point, and this is like your little brother doing this. Like, I'm not actually touching you. I'm not actually touching you. And then fine, I'm gonna post about it.

[B]

Yeah.

[A]

You're like, that's what the. That's the whole point, guys.

[C]

Yeah.

[B]

Just ignore it.

[A]

Stop posting about it. Because that's why they do this stuff.

[C]

Yeah. You're welcome.

[A]

I'm talking about seeing that movie. Did you can. I did.

[B]

Oh, yeah.

[C]

Could agree more. The.

[A]

The new Jordan Peele movie looks very scary.

[C]

Yeah.

[A]

Have you seen, like, the storyline?

[C]

I've seen the storyline and stuff, but, I mean, it may be completely unrelated, but apparently Universal just dropped them from, like, producing the movie. Like, a movie of Jordan Peele. So I don't know if it's the same one. Let me look it up.

[A]

It's really.

[B]

Oh, spooky.

[C]

It looks like the premise of, like, selling your soul to gain.

[A]

It's like an athlete.

[C]

Yeah.

[A]

That's like, being like, to what. What will he give up to reach this level of, like, Fame and power and money and all these different things. It's.

[B]

And you wonder within the industry if they're like, they're playing off of podcast, like, or real things. You know, it's.

[A]

I'm definitely intrigued. Like, that's the other horror movie I'm like, oh, I want to see.

[C]

I can't wait to see that. It's. He's only producer on, apparently, the one I. The news I heard is Jordan Pilas movie coming out next year. It's his last next one since. Nope. And then they've removed it from the release schedule of 2026. So it's in limbo right now. I don't know.

[A]

This is not the movie I'm describing.

[C]

It's a different. Yeah. That he's gonna be the director of a movie that's now in limbo.

[A]

Okay.

[C]

Him, he. I think he was like a helper. Helping, writing, producing it.

[A]

Yeah. But yeah, is that not.

[C]

It looks good. I mean, it looks intense.

[A]

It's wild that he's so funny. This is what he's doing.

[C]

Yeah. Well, it's like the guy for. It's him. And also the guy from Whitest Kids, you know, that's done the Barbarian and weapons movie.

[A]

Yeah.

[C]

And it's like these guys that are comedy sketch geniuses are honestly in horror. And it's so good.

[A]

John Krasinski and a quiet place.

[C]

Yeah. Yeah.

[D]

You think about, like, when you hear comedians talk about where they got funny, so many of them have, like, really traumatic backstories where, like, comedy was how they got out.

[A]

Yeah.

[D]

But so you think about if they're creating from the trauma, it makes horror make sense.

[A]

And there's. I've heard one of my buddies loves to make haunted houses. Have I ever told you about this guy? He's a good buddy of mine. He makes a haunted house in his. In his garage. Every. Like, he starts the beginning of October, he picks a theme his whole neighborhood knows. Like. Yeah, he's the. He's. He talked me into going through haunted houses. I was not. I. I'm still not a haunted house person, but I go to his every. Every Halloween. And he. He brought up to me one time, he was like, it's actually like that scare and the. And the comedy, it's. It's all about like. Like getting you sort of leaning one way and then going another way. So he's like, there's a really a shared, like, it's one, two punch kind of thing. Yeah. One is done comedically. You laugh. That's your response. And he's like, the other one is you go like, you. That's. But it's like really a shared human experience in there. And then he was like. Even for him, he said, the haunted house is so fun. Because what do you do after you do that is typically you laugh because you're like, this is ridiculous. I'm in some guy's garage and that's somebody with a mask. But I still for a moment went like.

[C]

So the same thing is just like, the whole point is to take someone. Like, whether it's a joke or a scary story.

[A]

Yeah.

[C]

You take them and then you twist.

[A]

Yeah.

[C]

You make them right. Oh, I didn't see that coming.

[A]

Yeah.

[C]

Good or bad?

[D]

Is it chemical? Is it as simple as chemical? Like the combination of adrenaline and dopamine?

[A]

Yeah.

[D]

Like, I wonder. Like.

[B]

Well, they say the emotion of this is what my therapist told me. EMDR guy.

[C]

Yeah.

[B]

So the emotion of anxiousness, you get the same reaction with excitement.

[C]

It. Right.

[B]

It's a shared physical response.

[A]

Yeah. Yeah.

[B]

So, I mean, that would make sense with people loving scary stuff and.

[A]

Yeah.

[C]

Getting on stage.

[B]

Getting on stage, it's a perspective change.

[C]

It's literally. I mean, like, that's the thing. Like, I mean, that's like that anxiousness. I mean, if you can use that as fuel, it's just like excitement. It's like, if you can use that as fuel to push you into something that's gonna make you uncomfortable, you know you're gonna live through this. Yeah, but it's just like. It's just kind of a. It's a simple.

[B]

I hate getting excited, though.

[C]

I know you do.

[D]

We just gotta. We just gotta.

[B]

Surprise.

[C]

We're having a baby.

[A]

You hate getting excited.

[B]

No, I'm joking. I love getting excited.

[A]

Oh, okay, good.

[D]

We just gotta overcome something before the thing. Let's go surf. There's a hurricane on the way.

[B]

No, that's. I'll actually die there.

[D]

I got you.

[C]

We are going to Halloween horror nights this year year for sure. Me and Kelsey are so. Yeah, you should come with us. That would be fun to see you in a haunted house and in the Universal.

[A]

Dude. So my buddy did a bachelor party. They did like a joint one. And Rach came with me. And she has a perfect scream. Like, she's like, literally has a perfect high pitched.

[B]

Like, like, movie scream.

[A]

Movie. Like, she. The second she started walking around, she. This is not her scene. She was being a good sport. And the first Scarer that saw and kind of like she let one out and I was like, honey, this is going to be a long. And they would follow her through these air zones. And like, like she was, she was. Her hands are on my shoulders, her. Her head is in my back. And they would creep up under her arm to pop up like staring at her feet. It was, it was a nightmare. And she is such a good sport for going through all that. But I would definitely go. I, I appreciate the creativity that goes into those. Like the plotting of where like they really mess with you. I remember one, it was like a, like a hospital theme. And it would go, it went like bright light and then there was a character coming at you. So as it was fading back and your eyes were like trying to adjust your last image was this character coming towards you like, I'm like, you guys are some sick freaks for coming up with this stuff. But it's super creative.

[C]

Go ahead.

[B]

Oh, that the Halloween Horror Nights they sell now.

[C]

I was gonna talk about that.

[B]

The no Scare necklaces.

[A]

Oh my gosh. Really?

[B]

Yeah. It's like, why would you go in there? That's what I'm saying.

[C]

I watched the guy do videos. Like, well, I've got the Scare necklace on. Let's see how well it works.

[D]

I saw that.

[C]

And no joke, the whole time they're just making fun of him.

[B]

Yeah.

[C]

Like, he's just like, oh, little baby, do you want to get scared? And I'm like, I don't know if that's better because then I would just leave with no confidence whatsoever. I'd feel insecure all night.

[A]

Oh, the decision making that went into that. Yeah, that's wild to me.

[B]

So funny.

[C]

I'm sure it's like reserved for children, but it's like, I mean, full grown people buying a ticket to go to Halloween Horror Nights and you don't want to get scared. Too bad.

[A]

I got.

[C]

I'm getting fired. If I'm the Scare.

[A]

Buy the ticket. I'm going to pay additionally to not be scared at the Scare. What are guys just trying to ride Spider Man? You know what I mean?
