Welcome to soft Core History. What is up? Welcome back to soft Core
History. I am your host for the week, Rob Fox. I'm joined
as always by Dan Redchester and Jake Goldman. How are you doing, guys?
Oh, it's a beautiful day. It's a beautiful day to day.
It's daytime. Yeah. I rarely see you guys when the sun's up anymore.
It's gonna be the first show we've done in a long time where Rob
sober. I don't. I don't feel great about it. I'm a little
hungover. I'm a little hungover too, actually, So there is that.
Are you a little afraid you're not gonna quite bring it as you typically do?
Yeah, that's what I'm worried about that. I don't really know how
to be on a podcast unless I'm like two beers deep. Drinking is your
crutch. It's more than that. It's called an addiction. Yeah, it's
funny. A crutch helps you stand. The drinking is like the foundation.
It's the it's the concrete slab the Rob's career. I sit on a throne
of empty bottles like a wizard. It's got a staff like a it's the
iron throne. But it's just shitty. Yeah, I know. You're just
at Wrigleyville stacking cups sliding through urinal troughs. Mmmm. It's one of my
favorite videos of all time. There was so much liquid in there. Would
you rather do that or run across the porta potties at what the Preakness?
There? Run across the portal? You don't. Definitely you get pegged with
beers. I would still, I don't want to just slide through a stainless
steel trough slip and slide it and then you could also fall off through the
porta potty. Oh, there's still there's definitely risk. People also trough slide
at the Preakness as well. Yea, what do you do after that?
You smell like pas? The video ends, but that guy's life keeps going.
Yeah, I'm sorry, Rob. People like to have fun. I
guess I'm questioning where the fun is Bro's It's fun to watch Scott. He's
doing it for you, man, Yes, so he's doing it for you.
You got that story forever, Thank you for your service. Yeah,
that story forever, the one you'd probably never tell and what we tell toast
Yeah, not to the woman you love now, No, you don't tell
her. You don't tell her that someone the best man says it. It's
like, would he bet when he bets Sarah? He had just slid through
a porta potti trough or a urinal trough three days before, and man,
we're a long way from there. She calls off the wedding, the whole
ordeal. It's it's too late at the best man's speech. Yeah you at
that point point in the wedding's done. Man, you eat shit and get
an annulment. It depends if they actually signed the paper. The wife just
waits. I want to hear the best man speech before I signed this,
right, that's funny. Tell me about the bachelor party. What happened there?
Slide through one more trough for old times sakes, like, I guess
you could call what I did sliding through a trough. It's a dirty,
dirty hole. Or I'm talking about your bachelor party. What happened in Columbia,
Missouri. Some guys wanted to go to a strip club, and I
was like, do you really want to do this? Thank you? I
was like, it would be funny if because that strip club is you know,
it's mid Missouri, so surprisingly a lot of college campus strip clubs not
bad, Yeah, are bad. I would say, well, well,
they're paying for their tuition. I guess. Let me put it this way,
they're better than other rural strip clubs. Sure, they're slightly better.
I don't know there was a and M's was horrifying. There's one outside of
Gainesville. I'm sure you've been. You know, ship colored stations. Strip
clubs suck? Did you ever get to Cape Risk when you're going up by
some strip club? I've been to like two strip clubs my entire life.
Two I can tell you how manyikinis. I think in Coconut or Cocoa Beach,
it was like a fraternity thing. And then it's always a fraternity thing.
Like and then when I was down bad in Vegas, down bats,
you went to a place that costs more. It was just a it was
after we got fired. So oh yeah, you're just went vibing like Rachel
Paige went fair enough, you're on the thing. Yet. I don't think
I've ever personally chosen to go to a strip club. Maybe once in New
Orleans when I was really drunk, but like, I've been dragged or been
made to go to strip clubs because everyone else want to go like probably.
Fuck. There's times there is a definitely a type that like strip clubs,
there's like always that dude that's like dude and it's Jake. It's definitely not
me. I do not have fun anywhere where I have to spend money for
no reason. Uh yeah, no shit, just like and then you get
like sexually harassed. They don't leave you alone. Do you want to dance?
It's like, no, I want to leave. Yeah. The worst
thing is when we're in Vegas, I had to like bail out a guy
that was a friend of a friend. Oh yeah, from jail. No,
from paying the bouncer or the stripper. Oh he owed a lot of
money. Who really, Yeah, he's one of I don't have it on
me. I'll get you later. But like I I had, I just
met this dude, like I don't know, eighteen hours to pay you back.
They did. That's good that because otherwise, yeah, that's a scumback.
But this is kind of an actually appropriate discussion for us today in the
topic we're gonna get to. But first we have a Patreon Patreon dot com
slash Softcore History. Five dollars a month gets two extra episodes a week.
We have like two years worth of a back catalog, all evergreen historical content.
We do listener voicemails, we do watch longs, we do another one
of these episodes, and all kinds of other fun shit trivia shows stuff like
that. Check it out Patreon, dot com, slash softcore History. Also,
if you want to see our beautiful faces, go to our YouTube.
That's right on YouTube. Subscribe watch the videos. I don't care. Leave
them on for the dogs, leave it on for dot dogs. We also
years of content there. You could play it for the dog all day,
all day, that's true, and then leave a review on Apple. Specifically,
I leave a five star on Spotify, but on Apple, write a
review and five stars. Because we're we get to a thousand, Dan is
allowed to drink. I can drink again alcohol, something I would never agree
to going sober for the show. We're about twenty nine reviews away. Boom.
We got a lot of good ones, and we'll read them when we
get to a thousand as well, and I'll get fucked up and Dan will
Dan will get blacked out on Dan Joel's trailer in the back of the studio.
That's smart. That's a smart. I bring my dog. Were you
on the the drinking contest thing? The breathalyser? Oh my god, that
was aggressive. I it's still someone said one of you guys say it was
still on Facebook. It's floating around there. Yeah, it's on Facebook.
No, it's all the old TFM videos are still I guarantee there's a fan
that downloaded all this stuff he did. He actually has told me he will
send me the drive at some point all the shit. All I know is
I was like clicking through it last time I saw it, and just like
there's a point where Bush is so drunk he's just slamming his head into a
table repeatedly. It's like, damn, like from full from full? What?
What? What's straight up? Forty five degrees to ninety Yeah, like
forty five to ninety into the table. That's not even the worst thing he's
done on a podcast. No, Well, talking about Thailand, we cut
that his Thailand trip. I think we cut that part. You weren't there.
There was an entire episode, was an entire episode. You weren't with
it, Like, we'll talk about it later. I thought you guys had
to cut man. I don't, man, I don't remember anything. Anymore.
I maybe I remember hearing that story. Yeah, you weren't there.
You weren't a part of it. You guys had to stop and be like,
hey, boosh, no we didn't fly. Yeah we didn't. Uh
we didn't think about it till later we're like, damn, that's kind of
a I want to tell that one. Well, that's not my problem with
you. Oh damn. I thought I was there for that. Okay,
No, no again, you were not there. I don't know. I
don't remember anything anyway, speaking of you're the expert on the podcast for history.
Yeah, personal history, Like I fucking care about that. Nothing to
hear, nothing to offer. No, but man, between the Strippers and
Boush going to Thailand really good. Intro to this episode is today we're hitting
a lot of our favorite notes, Victorian times, religion, and sex cults.
Oh god, you got me. What are you talking about today?
Why is it gonna happen? What are
you talking about today? What is the general theme of your time? Oh
no, did we have an incident where we showed up with the same subject?
What are you talking about today? The gap of Kites, get Bendoma
Knights. I can't reckon you. Okay, No, we're good. Are
good. It might be similar in something the Ega Pemanite. Sorry, now,
that happens a lot where we have similar topics, but we've never showed
up with the same thing. Okay, I got this off of TikTok,
so I would be surprised if you. Oh yeah, I don't used to
care. And by the way, there was not a lot of information on
these people. Is it real? Yeah, it's real. Uh the Ega
Pemanites. Uh, first off, you got it off TikTok so strike one.
No, No, it's real. I mean I didn't research it off
TikTok. I just someone else was talking about on TikTok and I was like,
I will dive deeper into that. I need to get on TikTok just
so you can get into the history algorithm history. TikTok is good. Yeah,
I could see that. A Victorian sex cult founded by someone who,
surprised surprise, thought he was God. No way did God get to have
sex with whoever he wanted. You know that happens a lot. It's weird,
right, I mean, look, it's Easter weekend, We're about to
celebrate the resurrection of God's son. When God just decided I'm gonna bang a
thirteen year old, I want to hear about the God that is not,
you know, self confident. He starts to sex club, but he's like,
eh, man, I just don't really have it. They don't give
it enough push. That that's not God. No is a self conscious god
of God. No, although God is, God is the alpha and the
omega, the top and the bottom. He's an omega male as well.
Omega male, Yes, what is it? Omega I don't know. I've
heard of a sigma male. Is that someone just like buried in the ground
with the ass in the air, like there, go get them. I
don't know. I don't remember Omega man well enough, Oh there's Mega man
who is dope. I think the omegans in Alpha. He's got like guns
for hands. The Omega man is you know what the omega man is?
Is that like a running man. No, it's it's the original I am
legend. That's right, that's right, that's that's the book, right.
Yeah. And the Omega man he's so he's the last man, right,
he's the Omega man. But that's how God, God is what you said,
buried in the ground. Yeah, he's with his butthole straight in the
air. It's like and you just got like he breathes through a straw that
sticks out of the ground and all he knows is that sensory. He's got
the tool that Gabby talked about. I can't remember that spreads your vagina open
at the gynecologists. But it's just just clamps. Yeah, like the forceps
or whatever the fuck they're called, but it is. It's the speculum.
I don't know, yes, spatula, spatula, it's just too spatulis.
Yeah. Uh. This guy, however, flipping meat, he had at
least a little more I guess, authority than your average cult leader who just
kind of wanders out of his house one day and was like, you know
what, I'm God. I'm fucking God. He was an Anglican priest who
decided he was God one day. That's quite the self promotion. Yeah,
right, so what Actually, I'm not just get this, I'm not just
a preacher. I'm actually God. Like, I bet that happened more than
you would bet it happened a lot, just under reported. Let's just like
cut up the middleman here, right, and me being the middleman. I'm
gonna just promote us like I'm the only guy in town that can read.
Well. Yeah, this is the nineteenth century, so again I'm the only
guy in town I can read. It's a little better than maybe like twelfth
century. Sure, but so. Henry James Prince was born in eighteen eleven
and at the age of twenty one in eighteen thirty two, he game a
doctor. However, unsurprisingly, he kept getting violently ill on the job,
so he quit in the nineteenth century. Huh yeah, yeah, no way
get out. I think man. I would wash my hands for nine days
after digging in every hole both made and by man and God in this fucking
in. These people keep getting sick. Yeah, twenty people with smallpox just
fucking coughed on me today. Didn't find that the work agreed with him,
so at the age of twenty five, he uh quit and went to school
to become a priest at Saint David's Lampeter campus. Uh. And there he
was already so mercurial, religiously zealous, I don't know, intriguing that he
gained a following among the students. Uh oh, I don't like that.
Like in it was a groomer in seminary School. He already had a like
unaffi cult of personality. How how how do you get that? Like what's
the same where Like people that are like I'm here for God are like,
you know what, I'm actually here for Prince. Now I'm here for this
guy. Well, he doesn't think he's got yet. Okay, he's just
he's just really hype. The coolest guy at Seminary's School. I guess sick.
He can carry so many chairs into the after Bible discussion youth group.
Yes, like the youth group pastor that carries all the chairs, that's him.
Is that? Like? I feel like that is a stereotype. I
think it's also got to be speaking of TikTok, like a thing on TikTok,
like the youth group chair challenge. Yeah, it's just like I'm going
to carry all of them in at once and put him in a circle.
That's a real thing. I mean I get to do it with groceries.
Yeah, I don't want to go twice. You know else is pretty cool.
Now do you go stacks with two hands or each individual arm? You
just kind of fill it. I gotta imagine it's like, yeah, chair,
sleeves. I don't. I don't think sleeves is the way to go.
I think you just stack them and then you carry them. Oh do
I think that's the most efficient way. Yes, that's what you said.
Is the best way. SA ten twelve chairs. That way you can sack
up forever. In theory, your arms only goes get five chairs on each
arm. Depends on your wingspan, and can give five chairs on these no
problem. No do you give small I'm sure my wingspan is average. Like
painfully, I'm a knuckle dragger. My arms are really long. They got
long arms, and I have tiny hands. It makes no sense. Well,
you're not a knuckle dragger. It's just that your arms grew how they're
supposed to. And your legs hit a stunt, hit a bump on the
road, broke, broke the growth plate. You're not supposed to break sick,
you're not supposed to break that bro No. No, this legs is
longer than this one. And see that's your problem. It's your problem,
by the way, is you have long arms and you should have been tall.
I was supposed to be six to four. But you think you should
have been a basketball player, or maybe even a quarterback. But your baby
hands tell me that you should have been a pitcher. True, it's good
for pitching. I had an audition to pitch in eighth grade and I did
dip shit your pants on the mound. No, I didn't shit my pants.
I got a little lightheaded and just started beaming my teammates. Just Dan
puts dip in and just starts crushing his friends with a baseball that I sways
back to lacrosse, such a northeastern sport. Children will never play lacrosse or
actually, no, I played lacrosse before that. It was kind of back
and forth my dad. It was like, I'm not going to a game.
I don't get it. I don't understand it. Honest to god,
dude, If my kids play lacrosse, like I'll go to the games,
but I can't even begin to act excited. At some point, you just
it's like, yeah, good job Rory, good job Finn. But like
I named, your kids look the perfect lacrosse. That's true, yes,
but like I don't understand what's going on. I don't care about what's going
on. I definitely don't understand the rules. Like this is netball field gay
grass hockey, the older I got, and when I didn't play organized lacrosse,
like we would just throw it in the fraternity. It's really easy to
flip throw it, thrown catch like once you get used to it. Yeah.
Yeah, it's like maybe the easiest sport out there. It's one of
those sports where they had to come Like when I was in high school,
they had to come recruit from the student. You know what I mean.
Oh, like the coach would come around and right a couple like that one
wrestling, track and field and cross country. I'll never forget looking at cross
country kids and being like, why you're morons? Your your sport is everyone
else's practice. I do remember the wrestling kids recruiting in high school too,
and they would do you could go see them practice for a day. Yeah,
I remember seeing that being like absolute fuckolutely not like this is the hardest
thing I've ever seen. They our wrestling team would start with three hours of
cardio first. Before they even got they would be running out in like garbage
bags to make wait and ship and then like like all right, for fun
treat, We're gonna their treat at the end of practice was pulling by manpower.
The coach is jeep around the parking lot and I was like, this
is insane. That's Alpha. It's oh for sure. Well, actually it's
Omega. Why Alpha of the coach. Yeah, Omega. I guess it's
like, hey, this car that can move things and to things, you're
gonna toe. No, it's Omega because they're the last kids to leave school
every day. Yeah that's true. They love school so much. Be there
till nine o'clock at night exercising. That's that's my favorite line from He's bounding
down one of the guys like, yeah, I run marathons. I'm trying
to be the best at exercise. Yeah that's true. I played a real
sport. Uh. So the vice principal of the college was like, wow,
this guy's really this guy really knows how to get people into God.
And he called up a bishop not literally, and was like, get this
man to a church. This is the famous uh the future Yeah yeah,
yeah, you know that new sound you're looking for? What your cousin loving
Berry. So he was assigned as an assistant priest a curate to a church
in Somerset, England, but he was immediately in charge because the parent,
the parish's church whatever their main priest was sick. Okay, so Prince is
immediately starting QB top of the top of the depth chart at this church.
At the time he took over, the church was not doing well in one
way. Low attendants. Oh they couldn't. They weren't bringing the hype.
Then the hype were fell in the seats. What a perfect slot for this
guy to fall into. Up until now, with the exception of the spoilers
I gave you, this sort of sounds like an inspirational story, right,
like man tries to be a doctor, doesn't find that it works for God
finds it. It's like a Walmart DVD. I was about to say,
like this sounds like an ABC Family movie. Yeah, yeah, yeah,
And then he goes and it's a dinky church. No one's going there.
With all the prelude, this sounds like a if you take the spoilers of
sex Cult spoiler park, if you start from the beginning without knowing what happens,
right right, yeah, up to this point and his life is a
Christian DVD at Walmart. But what if you pitched it as this and then
it really got dark? What if you what if you made this movie and
yes, the entire first act was all inspirational. It's Ted Lasso. No,
you make in fact, you make the first one the whole thing,
the first feature, like the hour and a half first episode of this trilogy.
You get everyone on this saccharin Christian ship. And then the second one
is whatever you're about to tell us about. Yes, completely takes a whole
book. This thing doesn't even what do you call it when you I mean,
this thing isn't even just like a hard left turn. It's like a
series of donuts of left turns, like just yeah, he's just whipping it
out. There so many lefts. He turned right, it's Ted Lasso turns
to Tarantino. Yes, oh man. So obviously things stop getting inspirational pretty
fast. Attendance does, indeed start to increase quite a bit. Once Prince
takes over as the church's priest. It blows up because he takes the pulpit
and immediately starts acting like he's possessed oh hell yeah, and throwing himself around
the church like he's Edward Norton beating the shit out of himself in fight club.
That's amazing, What a great start. That's the first thing he did.
I don't know, it was like the first first thing, but he
pretty quick into his tenure. Yes, smart, He's like, all right,
people aren't showing up. I kind of like give him a show.
Yeah. So he's just throwing himself into shits, screaming in tongues, all
this fun stuff, and of course everyone in the area is like, you
gotta come see this fucking guy. Did you hear about the new pastor what
did he say? What did you do? It's not what he says or
how he preaches, it's the fact he's just whooping his own ass for an
hour. I know. Think about your childhood, though typically there would be
multiple masses and you would go to your favorite priest, somebody that you enjoyed
their homily or sure. Well that was for me and Robert Lee. Yeah,
I actually no, because it was pretty much the same priest did both
masses on Sunday. For me. We had like three priests. We had
a rotation, we had two we had two priests in our parish, but
one was just kind of like the backup. He didn't do. I don't
know what he did. There was a couple that sucked, and then there
was Father Kirk, who was chill. Yeah, father. J was the
hardcore. I think he was a convert. So, but you would always
go to the guy who had like the shorter homily, but also the better
homily. He was efficient, he was a good storyteller. Didn't have our
pick of the litter of rabbis, you know, Cali, Florida. Believe
it or not, this wasn't like a just a roster. It's fair.
There was two, two different temples. Plus I assume him reading your plans
to take over the media was pretty droll, if anything, what plans the
nineties figured out? Yeah, it's talking points like what next? Yeah,
but you gotta read off your accomplishments, right, you're just kind of spiking
the football. You don't really need to read accomplishments to yourselves. Congratulations to
Jonathan for being promoted to produce it at the CNN. It's like, that's
all good. We just broadcast our dominance to you guys in the forms of
symbolism. M M yeah makes sense. Yeah, I would really look into
that dollar bill thing. What the pyramid with the eye on it? You
figured out your own research, you know what they were fair? No,
that's what they want you to think, Rob Yeah, am I misdirecting.
Who knows? Am I a sy op? Maybe he would like I would
love to be a sy op side note, Everything would be so fun.
Oh, I was saying the other day, my dream job at this point
in life is troll for the FBI or CIA. Absolutely get me on the
dark list, dude, Like I want to be in. You want to
be responding to people on Instagram all day ruining lives? I dude, I
just like people are like, oh, the cabal, Andy. It's like,
if that's a thing, maybe they deserve it. Maybe they worked hard
enough to get there, and you're a sheep, right and you deserve to
be It's like you're hating on the Patriots or something. Yeah. What Jake
is saying is free Diddy. No no, no, no no no no
no no no. All I'm saying, though, is power is only given
to those who take it. Yeah, more or less, you know it's
there for anyone. Yeah. People are like, oh, man, conquering
lands is their own true ownership, and then they get all weirded out by
a cabal that's conquering them. It's like, yeah, you're talking about you're
talking out a bouth sides of your mouth, man, yeah, you sound
like fucking tantos. Do you want peace or do you want revolution? What
is it? Bill? That is funny that they're like, well we do
get Starry bro to like a Native American and then they get their ship taken.
Like yeah, what, No, you can't do the stulls fucking participation
trophy generation am I right? Guys? Every Confederate statue it is the giant
participation, really is It was four years guys, let it go. Seriously,
you lost take that out. Just take the l like your ancestors.
Also, like if you're a Michigan, what are you doing? What that's
the ship? Like when you when someone's flying a Confederate flag in the North,
Nothing, it's just the redneck flag at this point, I mean really,
it really just says I don't like black people at this point, like
it might as well just say that liberty. There's an American flag. Yeah,
that's for liberty. Yeah what if we just go back to like in
our country. I love America, America rules very sick. Apolis is cool,
America is the tips and everyone needs to chill the fuck out. Uh.
Anyway, So every Sunday morning, like clockwork, this demon jumped up
princess asshole as far as the people in the church knew and just went bananas
on him, which is funny that the Demon kept such as Stricks was about
to say. The Demon notes, he's like, oh boy, that pastor's
going up to that pulpit today. Better hop outy start driving him. I
wonder if he like played it. He was like, it looks like this
week should be Yeah, man, they're good. Like the people in the
crowd are like, yeah, he's gonna give you five minutes a normal just
wait, ye delays pop. You always think he's not gonna happen, and
then he's just like, you need a slow build. He can't lead with
that. That's true. You gotta be like you're gonna first, you're like
and the Lord's the Lord said onto ad and then yeah, you just go
go and then by the end of it you are a bloody pulp of your
own making. He's just Rick flaring it the whole time. Please don't deem
don't. I didn't. I'm still I really didn't know that. I know
you guys didn't watch wrestling, so I think about I have not stopped thinking
about how that's his signature movie. Amen. No, man. No,
then he like low blows you or ipoke? What is that? How did
that work in one on one matches? Don't fuck me? What do you
think we're here for? Did you think I love it? It's it's I
would be really into Jake Paul as a boxer if he did that, Like
m m a is he wait? Which one is? Boxing's boxing? Boxing?
Maybe he just gets in the ring and he's like, hold on,
man, come on bro, and the guy turns around boom, uh just
cold clocks him. So the congregation or the attendance got so big that he
eventually had to divide the services. He had to do more more than one
service, and he divided it into services for men and services for women.
Oh this is where it starts. Yeah. He then divided those services into
sub services. There were services. There were four services, now right,
there were services for righteous men and men who were sinners, and righteous women
and women who were sinners. That's even more calculated. It's like who's who
are the loose ones? Basically like who can I buck? Actually no,
not not quite really. Uh, by the way, what a nerve wracking
draft that must have been. The guy who has a demon in him every
week is like sorting you out into cinner or righteous of anyone. He could
channel that information though, because he talks to both God and the interworld.
Yeah, yeah, the demon. The demon knows he's like I did when
the last time the den was inside me. He said, you've done some
stuff. So he was the sword and have from Harry Potter. Yes,
yeah, there were four houses. Bad man, good Man, bad Girl,
good girl. Yes, he fucked all of them. I took the
BuzzFeed quiz and it said I was in house bad girl. Uh. By
sheer coincidence. Most of the women who were deemed righteous, or at least
I assume it's coincidence. Most of the women who were deemed righteous were rich
and single and young. No shit, what that's so weird? Yeah,
what are the odds of that? I just create? You know, God
works and there's nothing mysterious about that way. Though I understand why God works
like that. I don't think there's any trick to that one. So things
got weird enough at that house is essentially riyah. Yeah, it's the what
is that the one you need to like, be approved to be need to
be famous or have a certain number of followers or something Yeah, of course,
that's really funny. I kind of wanted to see if should we see
if we can get on that app? You should, You're big enough,
got ten thousand followers on Instagram. I just like matching with babe. No.
Yeah, but I'm just seeing. I'm just seeing if they actually want
to meet. Kind of an nightmare, like what if you like so you
know how Oh dude, Jessica, I was just swiped right on me.
Like you know, everyone has their sort of like cheat list, Like you
know, you say your wife like, I'll be I'm just jed. If
you know Sydney Sweeney your hall Pass list, Yeah, your hall Pass list,
you have STUDI sweet to you, Oh dude, Like it's this what
if your husband was just like who, like I know you you know someone
who got cheated on by like a wedding dj. It was a local DJ.
Yeah, but like like a radio dj, you know what I mean,
like just a drive time DJ. We list Yeah, with like fifteen
thousand followers on Instagram. Again, it'd be like if we were your hall
pass yeah, and he got on Rayah and like matched to match with the
hall Pass Yeah, just an l a drive time DJ. Yeah. No,
you're listening right now, your wife comes on to Jake. How are
you feeling? If it's any consolation, I'd say no, but you're their
hall pass? What if there? I don't think that's that's such a weird
conversation to have too, because you got to think for the other side of
the A list celebrities, it's like to their spouses, it's like, what
if I'm someone's hall passy? What am I supposed to do? Should I
just not fuck them? Like? What if I'm their hall pass? Not
everyone gets to have fans, We're privileged. Yeah, someone, do you
think that's a discussion that celebrities have, like, Oh, if I'm their
hall pass, I'm allowed to do it. I'm like, I just feel
like obligated too, and it's not seating that they're hot enough. Yeah,
I mean, I guess there's a lot of people who have a hall pass
list. I think a lot of actors and musicians and everybody, especially ones
that travel bunch. I don't think they have close marriages or close relationships or
I at least one party doesn't believe that run party thinks it's an open marriage.
At least Yeah, at least one of them maybe not. I mean
athletes, for example, why even Mary a pro athlete while they're a pro
athlete unless it's like a stability, yeah, true, and yeah, I
mean I get that, or you just sign up for the agreement. If
you think Lebron's been faithful all these years, you're fucking nuts. I didn't
even realize he was married, to be honest with you, married, h
Yeah, I didn't know that. It's a financial decision. You think Lebron's
got like also hooked up with Steph Curry, so like, well, yeah,
but they're almost like borderline people know about it. Yeah, and yeah,
because Aisha just goes out and just flaunts that she fucks other men.
Oh boy that I don't know anything about any of this. But Lebron keeps
it quiet, have to. He's got a good team around him. He's
too Yeah, he's too famous, and I think she's just like, well,
there's one of theirs. What if he doesn't what if he's just missed.
He's just fucking he's just the best dude ever. He's just missed your
dad? What I mean, it wouldn't shock me if he was. He
seems he seems like a decent person. He is pretty corny too. Yeahs
a goofball man, like he hasn't had to have game. Ever. The
reason he never surpassed Michael Jordan and Rings is because he's a good person.
Yeah, exactly. You have to be a sociopath, right to Michael Jordan,
It's the CEO thing, right, like fortune five hundred CEOs, like
thirty percent of them are all psychotic and like narcissistics. That's why everybody hates
billionaires because in order to be a billionaire, you have to be a pro
killer. Yes See, I was reading something the other day and they were
like they were essentially saying, like I work in my line of work,
I deal with a lot of like billionaires and stuff like that. And she
was like, the psychos are really just the ones, you know. She
was like, there's a ton She's like, I've met a lot of super
rich billionaires are very close to it who are just like the ones you met
you never They're not on fucking like, they're just they honestly, like a
lot of them just live like nice, normal lives with a lot of money,
but like they're just enjoying themselves and they're like pretty, they're not fame
worse. Yeah, exactly, like the one. Like you said, it's
the ones that haven't figured out how to get off of the richest person's list,
like the ones they're richer people than like number four on the richest person
list or whatever. Yeah, there's people that will never end up on those
lists because they know how to know the oligarchs. Yeah they're like, no,
yeah, I'm sure that. Like the only one, the only famous
one that I imagine might be kind of normal is Warren Buffett. Warren Buffett
is not normal. He's just a big college basketball fan. He's he is
a fucking psycho. Like no, but I mean, I don't know,
in the in the like he's too normal, you know what I mean,
Like he drives like a Ford Explorer until it fucking falls apart by the screws
and then he just gets the same color Ford Explorer. He eats like the
same meal every day, he eats McDonald's and shit like that, Like he's
just a weirdo. Like but in it so he's like he lives too like
too normal. What's what's the like he lives too like specifically like everything has
to be the same everything, Yeah, yeah, like rigid, Yeah,
like a rigid routine. At least they're successful, right, there's a bunch
of people that are trying to achieve that, and they're like, the only
way I can do that, And they're like normal people that make like seventy
one hundred thousand dollars a year, Like I have to be the biggest dick
ever yep. Yeah, yeah, and you're terrible. What'd you get?
What did you get from it all? You're not going to be a billionaire.
World's a tough place, gotta be hard, and it's like, dude,
you are working at fucking MetLife. Worst, my dick. The worst
sentiment I've ever heard is if you don't take yourself seriously, no one else
will. It's like, typically the people that are that serious about themselves,
no one takes seriously. Yeah, no shit. It turns out what you're
funny behind your back? Yeah, everyone thinks you're a fucking douche. Like,
well, they tell you too about face then, because they don't even
want to talk to your faith your face approach you. Yeah, they don't
want to be around. We're just not fun. You're a bad hang it's
being a bad hangs. Yeah. So things got weird enough and notorious enough
that the bishop came to investigate. By this point, prince had already taken
what he had termed a spiritual wife. Uh. Nice godwife, huh like
a anyway, it was a spiritual wife because you already a wife, and
I think she had died at this point. It was a woman much older
than him, who was, of some means his spiritual wife. No,
the of the real wife, legal wife. Oh, but she died at
some point, but he already had the spiritual wife. Then at this point
he also convinced himself that he was God. By now he's like, oh,
I'm is there God? Is there like a seminal moment that happens where
he's like, I'm God? Like did something? Does he say? What
happened to lead him to that belief? Is there like part of scripture or
anything? Like? You know, I think it's probably that Homeland or meme,
which one where he's other people are cheering for him. Yeah, yeah,
yeah, where he where he blasts the dude with his laser eyes in
front of like a hundred like murders him in front of like a hundred people,
and he's like, oh my God, it's all over, Like,
oh my God, they're going, they're gonna turn and then everyone just cheers
and he's like, wait a minute, Oh shit, you push it more
and more. Yeah, I think he had that, like he just did
something even weirder. It's gradual. Yeah, it's like, uh, you
don't just put someone in boiling water. You put them in a warm bath
and bring it to boil. Yeah. Yeah, Uh, it didn't help
that the priest to so he's convinced that he's God. He believes he's a
physical embodiment of the Holy Spirit. Uh So the priest, he kind of
became his bit in a way, he became his bit. Did he do
a bunch of psychedelics. No, No, he's going he's I mean,
he might drink, but I gotta imagine he has a lot of up and
downs in the clergy, like a lot of standing and singing. That's actually
you know, the getting up and down and the singing is a way to
hyperoxygenize the brain, which leads to more susceptible to suggestion, because naturally coming
about thinking your God is insane. First off, you need to do chemicals
in your brain to honor the Lord. Yeah. Sure, he's nothing manipulative
about that. No, just how dareus sing for three hours straight? Get
on your knees for God and open your mouth, stick your tongue out.
Go ahead, dude all the time. Yeah, receive the Body of Christ
with your tongue now, Carl God, I have to do this. Yeah,
you don't get communion, you do the wakanda forever. My buddy guy
was like, yo, dude, don't do that. Just sit like yeah,
He's like, don't, don't. You don't have to go up there.
When Courtney went to Mass with me Christmas Mass when we like first started
dating, and she came home with me, uh, she was like can
I up there in a communion? And I was like no, no,
it'll burn your tongue. And I was like you can get a blessing and
she was like I don't want to do that. And I was like,
they don't fucking go. Let's sit here on your fucking heathen ass. If
you thank me for even bringing you receive the uh you know, body of
Christ, the Eucharist, and you're not Catholic. It's just a cracker,
isn't it. It'll poison you. I thought I think it. I it
dropped. I thought it sort of like drops like melts all the way through
you, drops out your ass like a hot penny. Yeah yeah, through
ice. Yeah, and they're like demon woman. Mm hmm. They knew
they sniffed her out, isn't it like not just a crowd. The literal
thing, though, is like it's it won't transhumanat or whatever you call it
transubstantiate. It won't transubstantiate in your mouth because you're not. It's just a
piece of food to that. It tastes like a stale ice cream cone.
Yeah. Yeah, that's cool sugar cone and not a waffle cone. No,
not splurgeon, no no no. So it didn't help his perception of
himself as God. That the priest for whom he took over, who was
sick at the time, Samuel Starkey, Uh, he read one of Prince's
weirdo sermons and then was magically healed the next day. Really, he was
like, oh, maybe I'm legit. Clearly this is I'm the fucking guy.
Yeah. Uh. The pair started going around the cut now and by
the way, the priest that happened to him, and the priest became his
follower. This guy, I mean fro shout out to this guy clearly a
very like will Yeah, yeah, yeah, totally like he's doing something right
on. So the pairs start going around the country and neighboring town the countryside
and neighboring towns, and they start converting people, bringing people in. Eventually,
though, the church was like you assholes are insane and they got kicked
out. Oh they kicked out of Why stop that church? Why stop the
party? I know, right, you know what, it's only because there's
other people that think they're their God. Like the only reason you stop that
guy is because you think you're God. Know what happens when you both,
you know, clash? Yeah, godfight, godfight almost two wizards. I
want a godfight. That'd be sweet if like Judgement, if Judgment Day wasn't
a judgment of us, but judgment of who was the real God transform in
Like yeah, it'd be more like God's lovers calm. Yeah, like a
Kaiju fight for sure. I'd be sick I watch that. Yeah, all
the gods fighting, like I guess prophets to well, no, no,
no, no, no, I don't need Isaiah in there. Yeah,
because like all but is like Alla and yeahweh two separate God. There's the
same guy. Yeah. Yeah, so like he's fighting him off internally.
Yeah, but like does Jesus come? Jesus was God but wait God?
Yeah, but he's also yeahweh because the Trinity and then the Holy Spirit.
That would be a hard one to fight because like you can't even really pin
down what that one is. The Abrahamic God. It's just schizophrenia. Yeah,
it's a is the Abrahamic God schizophrenic? All of our gods are schizophrenic.
That's amazing. What if he needs to essentially like he has three personality
isn't there like a superhero like that? So he has personalities, but he
needs the right one to come out to fight. So it's like the Christian
God and he's all like love each other there and they're like no, God,
give me baby. He's just like he's got to like punk himself in
the face to get all worked up, and he's an incredible hulk. Yeah
Allah comes out ah, I mean yahwehould be great. He's always terrifying.
Yeah yeah, shit up. Yeah, you always like sending out bears to
kill children, you know, like Hatha, God's a bitch, I know
Christian God is. That's Bruce Banner weak you know your guns one of a
I mean seeing god. There actually is a bit of a godfight later in
this story. Fantastic, So we'll get to that. He squares up with
someone. I'll talk, I'll get I'll let you know. Probably because he
was fucking his wife. He was fucking a lot of Actually he didn't really
fuck a lot of people's wives, a lot of people's husbands. No,
No, I wish uh, seeing the women were usually single, they were
they were like he had a code. So far, so far, I
don't see any problems with what he's doing. So after trying to get a
foothold somewhere for their new religion, they finally settled down in Weymouth. By
this point, Prince had also married legally Starky's sister, the priest who who
was sick, who followed him after getting unsick. I think Starky is the
Omega man. Yes. Yeah. And by the way, Starky's sister much
like Martha, Prince's first wife, quite a bit older. Rich, rich,
Yep, he's got a type almost dead and everybody got a yeah,
my type is rich and almost near In the end, was he the original
wasn't like elderly but she there was a gap. Was he the original startup
just trying to get like cash infusions? I mean, what is a startup
but a company started by someone with a Messiah complex? Yeah? Yeah,
and a lot of sort of polyamory tossed in for fun. Yeah, that
has to be like a trait that is common between of all startups. What
the guy that starts it is just like I can fuck anything? At some
point? Do you think was this a common thread? What was the chick's
name who went to jail? The fairness? Elizabeth? She just like taking
Itbeth Smarts, yea, Elizabeth Holmes. Yeah, it was a smart Was
the girl's kidnapped? Was she just getting it? I think she was fucking
that twenty different ways. I think she was fucking like one of the head
dudes on I. You know, I really can't speak to it. It's
been a while since I read up on that. I'm pretty sure she was
hooking up with someone that you'd be like, why were they hooking up?
She was voice she sounded like she sounded like God, who did she sound
like? I can't remember anymore, But yeah, dude, come on,
I can't do it, do it? I can't Oh yeah, so I
can't like there's someone she sounds like that can't think. I just want you
to do your essential oils voice. Jonathan R. Oh my god, it's
it's just really fat cookie monster. Yeah, that's what home sounded like.
No, Holmes was like she didn't have any like gurgle in her voice.
Oh yeah, I'm Elizabeth. I'm very smart. She never even I am
really just doing mad She kind of does sound like nobody knows who Madison is.
Our former boss, the startup ceo. He I would not put him
in the He didn't have a mass complex, he didn't have a miss like
complex at all. He was probably the most normal startup CEO worked on.
That's why we failed it is. Yeah, he's our Lebron James we need.
Honestly, he is the most normal startup ceo I worked for by far
By the other one far not the other one which John no the partner in
crime. Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, that was more on
brand. Yeah, he's in a cabin right now with guns locked up.
Well, we don't know that. We don't know where he is last I
heard. Yeah, dude, he didn't you start that shit over there?
I don't know I think he's got like a little bunker and that's cool.
Live your life, get ready for Patreon on that note. Yes, so
by this point I do my research. I kind of sat around. I
was like, I think we've talked about it before, maybe off camera or
whatever. But you know how when you watch a really old movie that's supposed
to be like revolutionary, and you watch it and you're like, oh,
just a movie. Yeah, Like the reason is is because you've seen a
hundred movies that have copied it at this point, so nothing that movie is
doing is novel to you. Yeah, like Citizen Kane, if you watched
it now without any context, you'd be like, well that's fine, Yeah,
that's fine. Yeah, I think that's good. That's how the sex
cult feels. Like. I read it and I'm like, this is like
everything pretty. But then I'm like, but I think they invented it.
They invented it, but like they were early adapters. What year was this
again? This is like eighteen forty eight, now before what you think as
a modern sex call. This is plenty of ancient Yeah, yeah, yeah,
there are ancient sex calls. I almost don't even count because that's like
that's just norm Yeah, that's Norman. Shit. Then yeah, this this
is kind of in the like up the uphill, like the upswing of the
second grade Awakening or whatever it is. The yeah, yeah, the spiritualism
movement. And there had just been uh I think I talked about like not
talking about mentioned later there they had a kind of unrestricted religion in the UK
and eighteen thirty oh really, so things had gotten kind of wacky. I
think Catholics it was legal to be Catholic again in the eighteenth by the eighteen
thirty, it's crazy it took that long. Yeah, yeah, yeah,
that's nuts. I'm not religious at all, but I think we're starting to
get to the point where we should bring it back. Religion, yeah,
or just like just something to believe in. It's better than politics being your
religion. Oh, politics being your religions. The nightmare this is, this
is not what the atheist thought was gonna happen. No, what's okay,
Look, well we'll talk a lot about this in the patreoon. But everyone,
everyone misleads everyone. It's not just science, it's not just religion.
It's not just politics. There's always just assholes. It's not that it's when
you for some reason, the human brain needs kind of to put all their
eggs into something to believe in. That's I think God on a normy level.
Sure, like if you think everything country, politics, politician or something.
I don't know. Yeah, I just there's the binary brain of like
humans, and it's there needs to be a black and white, and there
needs to be good and bad, and there needs to be like they need
they need to make sense of the universe. We have simple monkeys. We
are we are monkey people. No, man, I like the absurdism,
like it's more fun when nothing matters. It's not, though, it's way
more fun. What are you talking about? Not? Oh what fun?
Oh? What's so bad? Right now? What's so bad? But it's
like part of me is like, yeah, this is really funny to watch.
But another part of me is is like, am I gonna have to
be an insane school board meeting in six years? You are? Yes,
every every school board meeting is I'm sorry you had children, you decided to
bring kids into this world. No, dude, you're gonna talk to some
guy with a bucket on his head that's like, oh, you're the fire.
The six get Tower is gonna bring down a plane, you know,
like that guy's gonna be like trying to ban fucking the diary Van Frank,
I mean ten years ago, I'll more so than ten years ago there was
a fucking dude from New Hampshire that ran for president with a boot on his
Berman Supreme. Yeah, the man to be fair by the way, that's
gonna be the norm that diary of and Frank banning it was like the do
that happen? I just pulled a book out of my ass that did.
But here's why people were like due would have been the divery frek do what
you die in the Holocaust? It was a illustrated version, yes, unedited
masturbation version. I feel like that's and it was like for like third graders,
okay, no one do mean, like what a horrifying thing posthumously,
like if there is an afterlife? And Frank's like, my dad did what
with my diary? Like, are you fucking kidding Jesus? A twelve year
old girl's diary is one of the most lead books of all time. That
is a fucking nightmare for a twelve years That is actually the funniest thing that
could possibly happen to a twelve year old diary. She becomes a fucking New
York Times bestseller. Yeah, ever, and she gets none of the royalties,
nothing, she gets nothing. She got nothing from it except some type
of notoriety. I guess I do. I don't think she was, but
not even dead, like dying at doc hour wherever the fuck she was.
She was like, I don't know how, but I hope I'm famous one
day. I hope that what a monkey's paw like. I hope everyone.
I hope everyone in the world reads my diary. Is something no one has
ever said. No, yes, real quick, Before we get back into

though, with recent social media trends, I think there's gonna be a
whole new you know, sloth of Holocaust deniers. Dude, what do you
say, it's it's so hot right now, it's hot in streets. It's
it's been hot. Se people are just posting the six million number from like
old newspapers. The protocols of the Elders of Zion is going around again,
which is like Jesus Christ, this has been floating around forever. It is,
it's going mainstream, baby, No, it's ever since the Internet.
Man, like the anti Semitic rhetoric. I missing. We talked aout this
the internets for talking about crazy the car ride back from the gun range the
other day. Man, I just missed the old Internet. Yeah, the
wild West Internet where you have both. You go to a website, yeah,
not an aggregate because everything is like I believe in the dead Internet theory
now more than I did ten years ago. You would just naturally come upon
stuff. Now it's like whisper down the lane, and it's completely wrong.
Dead Internet theory is that there's hardly anyone on it. There's only so much
content, like there's only so many people actually using it. It's like there's
we could go into a whole other thing on that. But like I think
there's really only like a handful of websites that are visited. Like personally,
I know there's a bunch of websites, but like, think about it,
like most people get their news from like I used to go. I would
think like thirty different websites when I was on the internet for news or like
or just like general. Yeah, oh, entertainment at work in twenty ten.
Yeah about shitty marketing job. You have forever shit to look at.
Oh my god. Yeah, and now it's like, well, I look
to fucking run it Twitter, look at Twitter, looked at Instagram and saw
a headline. Yeah, so saw something, got angry at it. There's
nowhere to go, nowhere else to go. No, it's kind of awful.
It's really horrible. A couple services. It sucks. Let's just roll
it back just sort of. You guys be the change you want to see
in the world. I guess. Yeah. I mean we could do a
Patreon without Patreon, where it's just our website. Yeah, and you pay
to get in. Yeah. No, no, we're not going to do
that. I'm not absolutely fucking not what server costs. Oh yeah for content
you fucking oh man. Yeah, I don't want to pitching it video Nah,
I'm kidd well, now, well put that to YouTube. Oh yeah,
you hyper bed the video. Come on, now, I don't understand
how YouTube's ever profitable. It's probably not. They don't have them police,
so probably not. You know, it's ran by literal a the whole thing.
I think the ceoy you can never talk to anyone. Yeah, the
CEO of YouTube is a robot. I'm almost positive. And you talk to
anyone in Google, They're like, I have no idea. They think of
it like a black box. It's weird. What is that thing? All
right? So that's our god YouTube Fox show kind of uh so Prince also,
of course by this point, just checking all the boxes. Like I
said, it's like a it's like, oh, you know, this seems
normal for a sex cult. He also started preaching that the world was definitely
ending soon have to Yeah, of course that's a huge misstep through. That's
that's what our entire patreon's about this week. Okay, sweet, But also,
if you are God, why would the world continue without die? Yeah,
it's like it's gonna end with me. It's gonna end with me,
Guys, like that's a Christopher Olans worst movie couldn't end the world. I
don't even remember what Tennant was about you don't worry about it. I saw
it. I don't. I don't remember a single thing about that movie.
He was just trying stuff. Yeah, he was like, I'm really going
to dive in on the time thing. Yeah, it's just about time.
So this made Prince's followers rich and poor alike, but most importantly rich uh
not super attached to possessions or money. Oh perfect, So they gave their
stuff the Prince was happy to hold it for him, of course. Of
course, so Prince used all that money he got from his followers to buy
and build up a house in Spaxton, England that would become known as the
God. I hate the fucking word. Uh aga pomony, the ega pomony,
the eg eponymy eponomy whatever, which is Greek for the abode of love.
That is some yeah, and I assume abode of love is euphemism for
fuck compound. How do you spell eg eponymy? I want to see what
this thing looks like. Uh a g a p e m age. It's
a goape yeah, country origin Greece, absolutely Greece. Okay, he's in
the sentence. Please, it's a gope. That's that's the root word for
this movement is a goape. Okay, it's a type of love. Okay,
Yeah, Like, uh, there's what is it? There's a gopi
arrows and a third one? What type of love is a goape? Agape?
I think is like love for mankind if I believe like it's like a
it's not putting stuff and stuff. Uh. The kind of love and action
that shows empathy, extends the desire for good of the beloved, wants the
best, extends help, or demonstrates good intentions. A goape love is sacrificial,
like the love of Jesus Christ is a gope Boo, Yeah, aos
is the fucking one's fucking okay? Well, of course this compound had huge
walls to keep people in and keep people from seeing what was going on.
There was a chapel on the site. Uh. And by the way,
that chapel today is used to film children's TV shows. What sick the more
that comes out about children's television the worst. Where they filmed Sesame Street,
the English version Sesame Lane isn't so. At one point, Prince claimed he
had five hundred followers. Those critics said it was more like one hundred.
Prince also came to believe stuff like that he was immortal. Oh, Sophie's
immortal. But the world's gonna end. But he never he never tested it.
He's a bitch, chok it out. More. People that claim to
be immortal need to show on this. It wasn't like West World where he's
cutting in himself. Yeah, no, where are the gears. Look at
my wires and they're like those are veins like wires? Yeah what mechanical Jesus,
Yeah, vein but a wire. Uh. The Knowtage sisters were some
of Prince's richest followers, and they were all spiritually married to members of the
church, though not Prince himself, and they became spiritually married after donating six
thousand pounds each. Uh. Agnes Knowledge became not super in to the colt
though, and wrote her sister Louisa telling her not to come join her.
But Louisa came anyway. So Louisa's mom, worried that Prince was gonna steal
money from Louisa like he did her other daughters, was like, I can't
fucking do this anymore. So she sent her son Edmund, her nephew Edward,
and her son in law Frederick to travel down to the church and kidnap
her daughter Louisa to get her the fuck out of there, and the three
men succeeded in kidnapping her in eighteen forty six, and they imprisoned her in
a villa in Regent's Park. But Louisa was like, no, I want
to go back. He's God. He's for sure God. I need to
go back like that God lives there. I mean, I need to fucking
be there. The kidnapping an imprisoning move is like, I don't think you're
selling your case that you're doing the best that person. This person's gonna save
me, and you're just putting me in jail. You're just putting me in
a prison that doesn't have God in it. Yeah. Cool, I want
to go back to the prison with God. Yeah. So anyway, the
God lays pipe, it's got a big old dick. She was like,
she was like, Mom, he's God. He's really God. And so
her mom was like, you're fucking insane. Last more than thirty seconds.
Yeah, that's God to me. So she tossed Luisa into an insane asylum.
M that sucks, and the insane asylum studied her because they wanted to.
I don't know why, but her case people fall in the colts.
Yeah, yeah, might have been novel at the time. I suppose.
Did they just cut open her head, No, they would, They just
unfortunately know they just give her a transorbital, a little botomy. They put
a baby's brain in her, and then she just started taking dick left and
right. That's isn't that the plots of a movie? Yes, that's four
things. That's Oh man, I gotta watch that movie. It's like they
put a baby's brain in Emma Stone's body, and that baby's like I would
like every dick. I see what what is the concept? What is the
point of the movie? I love it. It's sort of like, I
don't know, seeing the world through a child child's eyes is but for some
reason, that child just is a hedonist. Yeah, the child is it
kind of yeah, but I mean, but that would kind of make But
it was funny. It's in like a full grown adult, so the brain
adapts and grows exponentially. It's not like a baby for very long. Oh
no, because it's coming to terms with the It just readjusts to a full
grown adult. When she goes out into the world. And starts getting dicked
down by Mark Ruffalo. She is absolutely a toddler. Mark Ruffalo. Huh,
yeah, that's the first. That's the first. D Yeah, bad
guy, Mark Ruffalo. Interesting. So they featured her in the Lancet.
That's how crazy she was. The doctors wrote about her in the Medical journal
that is still running today. In eighteen forty eight, Luisa escaped from the
insane asylum and met up with a reverend from the church, but she was
soon recaptured by her family. The reverend, however, alerted the mental health
authorities in Britain who were known as who were known at the time as the
Commissioners in Lunacy. That's great, that's a great title. Yeah, I
would love to have that on my LinkedIn that commissioner, ludicy commissioner, lunacy
commissioner. Yeah. Absolutely. In May eighteen forty eight, Louisa was released
and then she sued her family for kidnapping her and throwing her in in the
same asylum. This actually became an important case for the rights of mental health
patients. That's interesting how that goes. She went, she won good,
that's great. Yeah, involuntary what is it? Involuntary submitted to like a
mental facility as a nightmare. Yeah, some people can still do it.
Some people need it. In Florida, you can baker act someone. But
a lot of people. Yeah. In eighteen sixty though, she died and
Louise's brother Ralph sued Prince to get the money back that Louisa had left him
in her will. Of course, yeah, and they won. Prince didn't
get the money. Good. But by this point though, Prince was a
god and immortal, and then he also came to believe something else. Wait,
the god had a will? No, Louisa had at left all her
stuff to God. Got you? Okay, yeah, I was gonna say,
why has he written up a will? He thinks he's immortal. No,
no, he doesn't get a will. Okay, uh, Prince,
this is where we just start doing left turned donuts. Okay, so this
is where it starts. Yeah yeah, yeah, okay. So Prince,
who at this point hasn't been that crazy yet. It really has a bunch
of spiritual wives. He's fucking like ten chicks. The house that's on the
property has bedrooms for all these different women, and then he lives in the
house. He's banging them blah blah blah. Now though, Prince is like,
do you know what else? I'm pretty sure I can do. Since
I'm God and I can do anything. I think I can purify virgins with
his dick, pure with my penis, purified virgins, like make non virgins
virgin again or no, uh, put his penis in a virgin doesn't count
that and make her pure that pure, that will purify her flesh of sin.
He's baptism through his fucking peace. Literally, it's a baptism under father's
dick. Yeah. Interesting. Just so this is where this is where I
think things go from questionably consensual to probably rape. Oh no, because there's
like a law in some states, you know, like if you misrepresent yourself
to get laid. Yeah, it's considered like if you're like, I'm a
fucking millionaire and you get laid and then people are like, well you why,
that's right? Yeah, But I think there's a limit to that because
like, yeah, if you have a millionaire and she fucks you because she
thinks you're rich, that's on you. But if you tell someone like like
if I walked up to someone and was like, I'm God, you should
fuck me or I'm Lebron James. You should fuck me. Yeah, it
feels like it's on them. I'm curious at what level do we have to
like hold people accountable for fact checking things? Right, Like, yeah,
because if I told someone, yeah, I'm Lebron James and fuck me because
I'm Lebron James, I don't. I don't know that that's on me.
I like, at a certain point, how old is he at this point?
Because I'm looking at photos of him and they're mostly of him being an
old guy. Yeah, no, he's in his thirties forties here, Okay,
he does. He lives a nice long life. He looks fine the
younger photos of him. Yeah, he's not grosser than normal, dude.
Yeah, he's not grosser or anything. So with the spiritual wives who fuck
him because they think he's God, I don't know that's probably that's on you
for thinking he's God. But for this one, I don't really know how
else to put it. So Prince is like I can pure for our virgins.
I better start. Enter church member Zoe Patterson, who is sixteen,
okay, in front of the entire congregation in the chapel as they all sang
hymns. Zoe Patterson was laid out on a Billiard's table. Oh, this
is very frat house. See and I get probably, I guess raped by
Prince Like he fucked her. I call it right. People there said she
looked quote hypnotized. And after this a ton of people were like, yeah,
I'm out. I can't go to another one of those. Did he
use like a pool stick? He used his dick, He uses his being,
he's purifying, Yeah, guy, he I mean he didn't make the
The pollstick's not part of God. But if it's his pollstick, it is.
Guess anything he touched him? Yeah, well he used the Master of
the Universe. I guess everything is technically yeah, like he and he is
everything? Right, Like so, I remember back then billiards too. It's
a controversial kind of game. Yeah what like he was gambling, right or
what was the deal with it? I don't know. I just remember Quincy
put a fucking Billiard's table in the White House. People thought it was kind
of and it was. It was a controversial issue. Yeah, what a
scummy guy. Yeah, like yeah, it was like a lower person's novelty.
He'll be like if Bill Clinton put one of those like porno bar games
in Oh. Yeah, so he put a fruit machine in there. It's
on the on the resolute desk. He gets bored and he's like, you
gotta like match the that's coming. By the way, if you think the
White House is above all these gambling sponsors, you're mistaken. Gambling people aren't
ready for this, Like they're already not ready for it. It's gonna get
worse and worse. There's gonna be presidential campaigns brought to you by my bookie,
my bookie ag. Yeah. Uh so Prince was like, by the
way, we don't have to worry about having a baby because I'm God,
and so this is just purely baptism by Dick. Don't She's not gonna get
pregnant. She of course got pregnant, and he was like, oh,
the devil did it. Well, that's the devil, baby. What's the
demon in him? While he was in her keeps jumping into him? I
mean, why is God getting possessed by the devil? He's both kind of
like the play. Yeah. In eighteen ninety nine, at the age of
eighty eight, Prince died and his followers buried Prince on the grounds assa standing
up. They buried him. They buried him vertically, yes, so that
he would be standing on the day of the resurrection. Oh, that's also
easier to kind of dig your way out. Yeah true, unless they go
six feet down. Just reach up around eighteen ninety pull yourself up. Yeah,
so you got to do it. Pull yourself up by your gravestone.
Yeah. Your do you even get boots when you're in a depends what you
request to be buried in. Yeah. True. After Smith died, John
Hughes Smith Pigot took over and he recruited fifty new young female followers because the
population was aging. He took Ruth and Priest as his second wife, and
they had three children named Glory, Power and Life. All these old hens
out of here sick names. Glory Power in Life. I feel like that's
like a very on brand for like a Texas mega church child name. Their
last name was Priest. So there's someone that was named Power Priest out there.
No, no, no, uh Smith Pigot. Is it Power Pigot,
Power Pigot, Yeah, fucking name dude. Smith Pigott was now claiming
to be God by the way, and he is the one that got in
a godfight. This is kind of like a Dalai Lama situation where once the
prince died, it moved over to pigot. Yeah, okay, he has
to prove that you are God. So everybody's coming for the throne. I
want to be around when they try to get the next Lama. I hope,
I see. It's got to be soon. Yeah, that guy's old.
Did they kiss fight? They might end? What the kiss fight?
Did they kiss fight? Yeah? Yeah, the Dalai Lama, doesn't he
do something weird? Oh dude, it was like kissing a kid on the
lips. At least. There's like he's not a perfect being by any stretch
of the imagination. There's a lot of politics involved with the Dalai Lama.
He might end. I don't think it's politics. I think it's just weird
shit. Oh no, he does weird shit. What I'm saying, there's
a whole lot of problems with the Dalai Lama in general. Like it's not
there might be some kid issues. There might be like some political issues.
Yeah. I mean, hey, raise your hand if your religion doesn't have
some kid issues. Okay, your liars, both of you, God's will
you can't prove anything. Now if you keep moving the preachers, if you
keep putting marrying around with them, So I guess Pigott. Smith Piggot got
pretty famous at one point, and by nineteen oh two is famous spread as
far as India, famous for being God. And Mizra Gulum Ahmad, who
also said he was God, wrote Smith Pigot a letter being like, listen
up, motherfucker, I'm God. I love this. You're not God,
and if you don't renounce your holiness or whatever, you will die before I
do, and that'll prove you're not God. However, if I die before
you die, then I guess I'm not God. That's fair logic. Yeah,
Smith Pigot won. He won the godfight. Whoa the Indian guy died
first? Holy shit? Well that's a lame godfight. It's who dies first,
Yeah, lame. Whoever dies first isn't God. It's a ton tine
but two people week. Smith Pigott did die in nineteen twenty seven, and
the sect gradually declined after that, though it lasted until nineteen fifty six.
Who took over? What? Who took over? Then? No one that
was the last member died in nineteen fifty six and they had no more members.
Let's start it up. Smith Pigot's granddaughter, Margaret Campbell, though recalled
her grandma Ruth. I think his second wife, I can't remember, saying
not to believe the stories about Smith Pigott, that he was a good man
and that all the media was blowing it out of proportion. Classic how crazy
they were, Oh my god, may they were. Every cult says that,
yeah, they're actually very crazy, Like Branch Davidians were, like,
oh, they're blown it out of proportion, the Rosny's porum, They're blown
it out of proportion. Like then the government does end up like not seeing
what happened to Branch Davidians. Was I was gonna say, Waco, they
might have. They might have. They might have been touching kids, so
too, like they were weird motherfuckers. They yeah, they what they Just
because you don't deserve to be lit on fire doesn't mean everything you were doing
was fucking cool. There's like there's a big difference between like they should have
been investigated, Yes, they shouldn't have been Janet renoed, like yeah,
but perhaps you know they're slinging allegations against them post mortem. Oh for the
horrific shit they did the ATF showing up and raising their flag on the compound
like it was an active war sight. That's insane, dude. But we
don't because like, if the easiest way to discredit somebody is, of course
you just throw out like pedophilia allegations every time. It's the fastest, it's
the worst, it's the worst. You'd rather be accused of murder. I
would literally rather be accused of murder, like unless it was a murder of
kids. Actually, no, I'd rather be I'd rather be accused of murdering
kids than that. Yeah. Yeah. She also said that even though yes,
Smith Piggott did have multiple wives, she claimed the wives were happy with
the arrangement, one was older and not able to have children, and the
sect had it was of its time. You know, you can't judge anything.
You can't judge it. I'm surprised polygamy doesn't have a legal standing at
this point though, Like, I'm surprised to we have a like, you
can't do that loss. We're Christian nation, very puritan Yeah, yeah,
no, I mean for sure, I like, I gotta imagine it's less
so because of the puritanicalism, though, and more so like there's some sort
of advantage you can take advantage of in the gun, Like, yeah,
the whole state of Indiana just murder. They don't want you to get two
tax breaks. Yeah right. I think it's that more than anything. Like
it's just hard to tax of three, four or five person marriage. How
do you tax them? That's yeah. Look think of all those dependents too,
with children, got like forty kids. Yeah. I mean, because
I guarantee you it has less to do with morality and a lot more to
do with like, we don't want a neighborhood marrying. It's like governments.
Yeah. She also said that the women liked being in the cult because it
allowed rich women and alternative lifestyle to their other options of either governess or you
know, married off to some rich och, other options of sweeping or bacon.
Yes. Uh. And they lived in luxury at the Aga Aga pomone
Ye in Somerset until their death. So they were like I got pomony.
Yeah. They were like this is better. We like this. I don't
want to be some assholes. Of course, of course, of course they
liked it. They were pooling resources, they lived, they did lots of
work. Yeah, and they had a ton of money. It was a
rich cult. Yeah, so the best cult to be in. She was
like, she claimed that it was legit. This is so yeah, that's
all it is. I mean, like, who's joining the cult where it's
like, Okay, now we're gonna all live in soggy boxes under and overpass.
It's like, oh, we get to live in a castle. Fuck.
Yeah, this cult makes sense. I like to fuck, this guy's
not even that bad looking, like once a month, and he's rich and
I'm gonna be taken care of. Yeah, he might even forget about me.
There's so many people in this yeah, Like that's just the the raping
of a sixteen year old in front of an entire congregation on a pool table
pretty fucking off. That was unlikely the last vision he did that too.
Also, that's that's really that's the Yeah. But they even thought it was
horrific and most of them left. Yeah, that's the thing, right,
It's a lot of them didn't. Though. When you watch any of these
cult documentaries, you're like, you know, like, okay, everybody fucks
who's being hurt, And like the first episode will always be like what's the
problem, and then they get to the second episode. It's like that's when
they started forcibly removing their genitalia. It's like, that's that's that's where they
Yeah, they had because they always have just fun. You're like, I
regret what I said earlier. Yeah, you they had me in the first
half. Not gonna lie. But like, it's the thing with cults is
they always escalate to a place that goes beyond because nobody would join if that's
where they started. People. Yeah, well, also, people can't just
be happy with what they got. Oh no, that's it's the constant.
Like I had another revelation, Like, it's just they have to keep bringing
new things into If I could just fucking play basketball in the fucking tropics all
the time to be great, it'd be sweet. Yeah that's what I want.
But anyway, that is the story of the Agapemae cult in England.
Died out in nineteen fifty six after a century. Oh they missed the sixties,
I know what, Like they would have been perfect for it. There
was like one dude that was living in the fifties. Oh, they could
have gotten a lot bigger if they rode to the city. But by the
time Smith Pigot died in nineteen twenty seven. It had kind of jumped the
shard, right because the pool table is, Yeah, what do you guys
learn today? I learned about these people. I know it it existed.
Plus, how do you have a sex cult world War two? You just
can't. It's hard. I think that a lot started after World War Two.
I feel like swinger culture had to have started after World War Two.
I think there are a lot of people who American swinger culture saw some shit.
Yeah, American. Although if you're in England, right and you're going
through the blitz Creek, there's probably some people, you know, testing the
waters. Do you think it's the fucking apocalypse basically? Right, everyone's just
kind of out down in their bunkers or in their basements. Yeah, let's
give it a frou. It's like we want not live tomorrow. Yeah.
I mean I think a lot of people like if if they were like,
hey, a comet, say you knew a comment was coming it was gonna
hit a meteorite, right, a meter It's gonna hit earth, Like,
I think there's a level of time they have to announce that, like and
keep it from people. Do you think people would just be like, oh,
le's fuck or people are jerking off. I don't think so. I
think I would just get my I would go off and look at a beach
or something. I don't know. Like how much time is a funny concept
though, too right, Like if it's like it's gonna hit in eight years,
what do you do for eight Like that's amazing, but it's scary.
Well, it's really quick. Yeah, everyone quits their jobs. It's yeah,
supply chain, implos, global food security, trash. So I think
they wouldn't tell us until it's like there's six months. I don't want to
know. I don't want nightmare. I want six months, like just in
six months where it's like okay, even then, dude, that's that's also
people are just killing now there's I think they're like, yeah, fuck it,
we're gonna die anyway, so it becomes the purge. Okay, So
there's there's gotta be no tell. I think that's the better thing to do
is not tell anyone. It would be impossible not to tell amateur. Like,
there's got to be a point though, where it's like, well that's
like a month or two, you can probably spy son. That's a Big
One. You shit night time, but it's second son. It's getting pretty
dark over here. Big rock keeps getting bigger, in't it? It?
In it? But yeah, that's all I got. Oh, who's today's
hitler? The guy that raped the sixteen year old on a pool tap billiards
as a game, John Billiard? John Billiard is, I'm sorry it was,
in fact, Michael Poole. Mm hmmm they invented together. Uh well,
that's all I got. So for Dan Chester and Jake Goldman, I'm
