1
00:00:04,960 --> 00:00:08,800
Hi, everyone, This is Christina
and Krmen. Yes, there's no empty

2
00:00:08,919 --> 00:00:12,640
today. She is recovering from a
cold, not COVID. She checked a

3
00:00:12,679 --> 00:00:17,120
bunch of times. Yeah that would
suck. I mean a cold. Still

4
00:00:17,399 --> 00:00:22,079
it still sucks. Yeah yeah,
but it's still better than COVID, I

5
00:00:22,120 --> 00:00:27,559
think. Yeah. Yeah. So
Krmen's here today and we are talking about

6
00:00:27,920 --> 00:00:31,199
well, I'm going to be telling
you, Carmen about some hauntage statues.

7
00:00:32,200 --> 00:00:36,359
Yeah yeah, one in Mexico,
one in Argentina, and then I threw

8
00:00:36,359 --> 00:00:40,119
in a little bonus one in California. All right, yeah, but before

9
00:00:40,159 --> 00:00:42,679
that, I have a listener story
and I won't let you get through it

10
00:00:42,920 --> 00:00:46,920
zero interruptions. Oh, we'll see
about that. Are you drinking water?

11
00:00:47,159 --> 00:00:49,840
Yeah, it's because I had a
cup of coffee earlier in the morning.

12
00:00:49,920 --> 00:00:52,399
I didn't finish it all though,
and then you know, I traded myself

13
00:00:52,439 --> 00:00:57,320
to Smoky's, this restaurant I like
only Monday through Friday. Today is a

14
00:00:57,359 --> 00:01:03,240
Friday. I have off magically because
I quested it off, magically requested it

15
00:01:03,320 --> 00:01:06,200
on. So yeah, I treated
myself to Smokies and I got of anol

16
00:01:06,280 --> 00:01:10,719
latte there. Oh lovely. It
was probably like a sixteen ounce ish and

17
00:01:11,040 --> 00:01:14,799
so I felt it was too soon
for more coffee and I just finished that

18
00:01:14,959 --> 00:01:17,560
like an hour ago. Okay,
I can see that. And also I

19
00:01:17,760 --> 00:01:21,840
not drink any water all day.
Yeah, you had a tough test to

20
00:01:21,879 --> 00:01:25,719
get through, and you can't be
through through the test. Yeah I did

21
00:01:25,799 --> 00:01:30,480
once the time the clock was running. It didn't stop for me to be

22
00:01:30,760 --> 00:01:34,400
but I had to wow, and
you're still passed. Okay, that's all

23
00:01:34,480 --> 00:01:42,920
clap for Carmen. So yes,
a listeners story before I get to the

24
00:01:42,959 --> 00:01:45,920
story. If you have a story
that you want to send into the podcast,

25
00:01:45,959 --> 00:01:49,159
you can email Espuitos at gmail dot
com, sendit it on our discorn.

26
00:01:49,200 --> 00:01:52,560
You can give us a call.
I'll leave it in a voicemail.

27
00:01:52,599 --> 00:01:55,719
We just got one. I,
however, did have it ready to play

28
00:01:55,879 --> 00:01:59,280
or I would have played it here, but I have it. We'll probably

29
00:01:59,319 --> 00:02:00,799
listen to a next episode, So
thank you so much for the person who

30
00:02:00,840 --> 00:02:04,719
did that. I already listened to
it and I forgot so it's like it's

31
00:02:04,719 --> 00:02:08,280
gonna be like new for me.
That's an option. You can email a

32
00:02:08,360 --> 00:02:13,199
voicemail in Some people have done that, and yeah, we'll play it in

33
00:02:13,280 --> 00:02:16,840
the episode. So I always love
receiving everything, but those I think are

34
00:02:16,879 --> 00:02:23,319
like extra extra, extra fun.
And this wasn't in via email, so

35
00:02:23,879 --> 00:02:28,599
I would just read the whole thing. Hello Christina and MJ. There's no

36
00:02:28,680 --> 00:02:31,759
MG today, and Carmen, I'm
gonna replace it. Hello Christina and Carmen.

37
00:02:35,120 --> 00:02:37,719
You guys are the best and I
enjoy listening to all your back and

38
00:02:37,759 --> 00:02:42,000
forth and storytelling. I am currently
writing this from the most haunted room of

39
00:02:42,039 --> 00:02:46,639
the Alex Johnson Hotel in South Dakota. Wow. My job allows me to

40
00:02:46,680 --> 00:02:49,840
travel, and when I travel,
I try to stay in haunted places.

41
00:02:50,159 --> 00:02:53,280
I love that. I wouldn't do
the same. Maybe said you wouldn't do

42
00:02:53,319 --> 00:02:55,599
the same. I would, but
you wouldn't even go upstairs in our grandma's

43
00:02:55,639 --> 00:03:00,479
house. Shut the fuck up,
fucking at You're right, You're right.

44
00:03:01,039 --> 00:03:05,680
No, I called you out.
I didn't attack you. Well, it

45
00:03:05,840 --> 00:03:08,800
wasn't attack for me, even though
you are calling me out, I feel

46
00:03:08,840 --> 00:03:15,120
attacked. Yeah, No, you're
right, I won't even go upstairs because

47
00:03:15,159 --> 00:03:17,919
I'm scared. I won't either.
I'm just saying like I also wouldn't stay

48
00:03:17,960 --> 00:03:22,759
in haunt and placed it on purpose. I think if I was already there,

49
00:03:23,400 --> 00:03:25,199
I wouldn't leave, but yeah,
I wouldn't go. I wouldn't leave.

50
00:03:25,719 --> 00:03:28,960
Seek it out, you wouldn't leave. Yeah, I wouldn't leave.

51
00:03:29,080 --> 00:03:31,520
I am too broke to like go
and find any hotels. I could sing

52
00:03:31,560 --> 00:03:38,719
it for that, you would sing
it. Okay, let me continue now.

53
00:03:38,960 --> 00:03:40,439
Before I get to my listeners story, I wanted to give you a

54
00:03:40,439 --> 00:03:46,000
little background on the room I'm staying
in. Supposedly people encounter of women in

55
00:03:46,039 --> 00:03:49,759
white. She was a young bride
who died by suicide by jumping out of

56
00:03:49,759 --> 00:03:53,120
the window of this room, Room
one hundred and twelve. There are different

57
00:03:53,120 --> 00:03:55,439
accounts, and reportedly she likes to
open the window in the middle of the

58
00:03:55,560 --> 00:03:58,759
night, so I might wake up
to that. You know what, by

59
00:03:58,800 --> 00:04:00,439
the time we're reading this, let
us know. If you did wake up

60
00:04:00,479 --> 00:04:05,479
to that, let me know.
I need to know. The hotel even

61
00:04:05,560 --> 00:04:10,199
keeps a log at the front desk
where people can write out their experiences in

62
00:04:10,240 --> 00:04:14,319
the room. Wow. Wow.
If I do end up experiencing anything,

63
00:04:14,400 --> 00:04:16,360
I will be sure to update you. Okay, So maybe maybe she didn't.

64
00:04:16,480 --> 00:04:20,160
Anyway, onto my actual listener story
that takes place in Mexico. These

65
00:04:20,160 --> 00:04:25,399
are experiences from my parents when they
lived in Quahuila, Mexico. The house

66
00:04:25,439 --> 00:04:29,160
they lived in was in front of
a little creek. My parents would experience

67
00:04:29,199 --> 00:04:31,560
a lot of things in the house. For example, my dad really liked

68
00:04:31,600 --> 00:04:36,800
reading those novellas with this sleazy cover, and he would leave the stacks of

69
00:04:36,839 --> 00:04:40,560
them on their dresser. One night, my mom and dad were sleeping when

70
00:04:40,560 --> 00:04:45,240
they woke up to the sound of
the novellas smacking against each other and were

71
00:04:45,279 --> 00:04:53,480
having sex. I guess da wow. They both said that they were too

72
00:04:53,560 --> 00:04:56,639
scared to move, but when they
finally did, they could see the stacks

73
00:04:56,720 --> 00:05:00,800
of novellas had been moved to the
floor. It was as if the novellas

74
00:05:00,879 --> 00:05:04,319
that sat on top of the stack
on the dresser were being stacked perfectly on

75
00:05:04,360 --> 00:05:08,800
the ground, one by one.
Oh that makes more sense. Okay,

76
00:05:08,920 --> 00:05:15,519
yeah, I just thought they were
like sitting. We're so fucking dumb.

77
00:05:15,600 --> 00:05:23,040
Oh my god. The fact that
we thought the same thing just cements how

78
00:05:23,199 --> 00:05:28,720
dupe. I was gonna say,
how we're like twins, but that's how

79
00:05:28,759 --> 00:05:34,000
we're done twins. Oh my god. Okay. When my mom would be

80
00:05:34,040 --> 00:05:38,079
cooking, she would have multiple pots
on the stove, one for beans,

81
00:05:38,160 --> 00:05:40,959
one for rice, one day,
she left the food on the stove to

82
00:05:41,000 --> 00:05:44,120
cook and she went out to sweep
the stoop, so she spent a few

83
00:05:44,160 --> 00:05:46,680
minutes outside. When she came back
inside, she saw that the burners that

84
00:05:46,759 --> 00:05:50,720
she had put the pods on were
off and that the pots had been moved

85
00:05:50,720 --> 00:05:56,639
to completely different burners. This would
happened multiple times. Lastly, there was

86
00:05:56,680 --> 00:05:59,000
one time my dad woke up in
the middle of the night and had to

87
00:05:59,040 --> 00:06:01,240
go to the bathroom. As he
was walking down the hallway, he felt

88
00:06:01,319 --> 00:06:05,240
someone blowing on the back of his
neck. That's the worst one yet,

89
00:06:05,519 --> 00:06:10,000
Oh my god. Being the middle
of the night, my mom was sleeping

90
00:06:10,040 --> 00:06:14,160
and nobody else was in the house. He wiped his neck, turned around

91
00:06:14,319 --> 00:06:17,240
and saw that there was nobody there. There were always rumors that children had

92
00:06:17,319 --> 00:06:21,279
drowned in the creek that ran behind
the house, and even though the occurrences

93
00:06:21,279 --> 00:06:26,079
scared them, they never really felt
malicious. They felt malicious to me.

94
00:06:26,199 --> 00:06:30,560
No, those were like playful.
I think. The only one that felt

95
00:06:30,639 --> 00:06:33,839
malicious to me was the neck touching
thing blowing on the That's what it was.

96
00:06:33,920 --> 00:06:38,720
Yeah, Oh I don't like it. So those are our stories.

97
00:06:38,759 --> 00:06:42,279
Again. Huge fan of the podcast, Keep up the great work, Janey,

98
00:06:42,319 --> 00:06:46,319
Thank you Janey for sending that in. And wow, yeah, sorry

99
00:06:46,319 --> 00:06:49,759
we got confused with the magazine story. I think only we could have done

100
00:06:49,800 --> 00:06:54,560
that. I think everyone else would
have been like, oh they're being moved

101
00:06:54,680 --> 00:06:58,279
any were like someone's clapping, the
magazine is together. Oh my god.

102
00:07:00,240 --> 00:07:05,600
Our would says, she would call
us at us, which is short.

103
00:07:05,839 --> 00:07:09,959
Yeah, that's how much she's she
calls us. Yeah, yeah, that

104
00:07:10,079 --> 00:07:13,399
she shortened it to at us.
And now she's saying, as long as

105
00:07:13,399 --> 00:07:17,079
we're anymore, just at that now
yeah, so now yeah, she'll like

106
00:07:17,120 --> 00:07:21,120
still message like yeah, because sometimes
we'll have moments like this. You know

107
00:07:21,160 --> 00:07:29,720
who doesn't, right, right,
yeah, right right? You know the

108
00:07:29,720 --> 00:07:32,240
first thing, the first story she
said, a sort of story she said

109
00:07:32,279 --> 00:07:36,879
about the hotels and the bride jumping
off. It reminds me of every hotel

110
00:07:36,959 --> 00:07:42,959
story that M tells on and that's
why we drink. Oh yeah, yeah.

111
00:07:43,560 --> 00:07:46,839
If a hotel doesn't have a story
of a woman jumping out of the

112
00:07:46,879 --> 00:07:51,759
window, is it even a hotel? That's my question. Yeah, and

113
00:07:51,839 --> 00:07:56,160
she has to have a white dress
or a red dress on. Yeah,

114
00:07:56,480 --> 00:08:01,399
although there is somewhere I don't remember
if it's California or somewhere else. There's

115
00:08:01,439 --> 00:08:05,480
a train station with a lady in
a green dress. Oh wow, green

116
00:08:05,560 --> 00:08:09,000
dress. That's different. Yeah,
I want to know where the ghosts are,

117
00:08:09,360 --> 00:08:16,079
where the girlies are with like the
big T shirts and hoop ear rings

118
00:08:16,079 --> 00:08:18,759
and jeans and like Nike. Where
are those ghosts? You know what?

119
00:08:18,879 --> 00:08:22,800
I never hear haunted stories about,
like you know, the hood. I

120
00:08:22,839 --> 00:08:24,319
feel like that's where they would be. And that's the kind of ghost that

121
00:08:24,319 --> 00:08:28,319
I would want to be haunted by
because I would be like, you know,

122
00:08:28,399 --> 00:08:31,399
you probably grew up next to me, and I wouldn't be afraid of

123
00:08:31,439 --> 00:08:33,919
you. You're not like some races
from the eighteen hundreds exactly. You're not

124
00:08:33,960 --> 00:08:39,080
gonna blow out my neck in the
middle of the night because you get it.

125
00:08:39,240 --> 00:08:43,000
You get it. You're gonna move
my pots around maybe, but like

126
00:08:43,039 --> 00:08:45,440
that, Yeah, if anything,
you're gonna watch out for me and that

127
00:08:45,519 --> 00:08:52,720
sense you're more of an angel than
a ghost. And that's what the song

128
00:08:52,799 --> 00:08:56,840
Angel Baby was truly about. A
ghost. I love that song. You

129
00:08:56,159 --> 00:09:01,039
start singing it, but I can't
do that. They're not seeing it's terrible.

130
00:09:01,600 --> 00:09:05,879
So my first story, well,
first, before I get into the

131
00:09:05,960 --> 00:09:09,320
hunted statue stories that I have written
down carpet and I first we grew up

132
00:09:09,320 --> 00:09:13,200
in Oakland, and then we moved
to Modesto, California. But in Oakland

133
00:09:13,519 --> 00:09:16,840
on I don't know if it's still
there either, But on thirty fourth Street,

134
00:09:16,879 --> 00:09:20,799
I think, is that where our
cousins lived. It was, I

135
00:09:20,840 --> 00:09:24,519
don't think. So we were on
thirty fifth. We would walk over to

136
00:09:24,559 --> 00:09:30,559
their house. But on the way
to their house we passed a big house

137
00:09:30,960 --> 00:09:35,720
that had these like lions sages.
Oh okay, yeah, that wasn't thirty

138
00:09:35,720 --> 00:09:37,759
fourth Stree. That was a different
stree. They were further away and thirty

139
00:09:37,759 --> 00:09:41,960
fourth next to thirty five. Yeah, they lived like We had to pass

140
00:09:41,000 --> 00:09:45,279
the library. And if you're from
Oakland, you know exactly what we're talking

141
00:09:45,279 --> 00:09:48,039
about, because is there more than
one library. I don't know. There

142
00:09:48,120 --> 00:09:52,399
might be the big citywn yeah,
city Ivan. No one will know what

143
00:09:52,480 --> 00:09:54,440
we're talking about because they have a
horrible sense of navigation, which is even

144
00:09:54,480 --> 00:10:00,200
worse as children. So this is
true. This is true. So anyway,

145
00:10:00,200 --> 00:10:01,879
there was a big house and I
know what house you're talking about.

146
00:10:01,960 --> 00:10:05,799
Yeah, you know what house.
No one else knows what house I'm talking

147
00:10:05,799 --> 00:10:09,720
about. Anyway, this bed.
Yeah, this doesn't matter. The point

148
00:10:09,840 --> 00:10:13,240
is. The point is we walked
by a house with lions statues, and

149
00:10:13,320 --> 00:10:18,039
I imagined that those statues came to
life. And then when our mom told

150
00:10:18,120 --> 00:10:22,080
us the story of Las even more
so, I was like, oh my

151
00:10:22,120 --> 00:10:24,919
god, those lions are gonna attack
me. But we never walked in the

152
00:10:24,960 --> 00:10:30,279
middle of the night there or so
we were safe. And then in Modesto,

153
00:10:30,440 --> 00:10:33,320
okay, people will know this.
Probably when you're leaving Deep and you're

154
00:10:33,360 --> 00:10:39,080
going into the downtown area of Modesto
or the rest of Medesto, you have

155
00:10:39,200 --> 00:10:41,639
to go through that little bridge,
Lion Bridge. Lion Bridge, okay,

156
00:10:41,679 --> 00:10:46,360
and there has lion statues as well. It still did they take them all?

157
00:10:46,360 --> 00:10:50,480
Are they gone? I drive there
often and I don't remember. I

158
00:10:50,519 --> 00:10:54,039
just haven't been trying to avoid that
bridge because somebody told me it was like

159
00:10:54,080 --> 00:10:58,759
socially unsound. NIU fall at any
moment? What the buck? Yeah,

160
00:10:58,799 --> 00:11:03,799
somebo told me, like, oh
business forever. I guess every day.

161
00:11:03,840 --> 00:11:05,440
I know, That's what I told
them. I'm like, I used to

162
00:11:05,559 --> 00:11:07,279
drive every day to fucking school.
And they're like, yeah, no,

163
00:11:07,360 --> 00:11:09,720
I don't drive that way. They're
like, I go the opposite way.

164
00:11:09,840 --> 00:11:13,200
If you kept going a couple streets
down on Age, you could get on

165
00:11:13,279 --> 00:11:20,240
the freeway and skip the bridge like
you didn't have to take the bridge.

166
00:11:20,360 --> 00:11:26,360
Can keep going down and take the
freeway instead of the bridge. Wow,

167
00:11:26,440 --> 00:11:30,039
well we could have died. Get
to know. Point is of that is

168
00:11:30,080 --> 00:11:33,320
that I also thought those statues were
haunted. Anytime I see a statue,

169
00:11:33,519 --> 00:11:39,200
IM like this as a person,
the ghost is trapped inside and at night

170
00:11:39,279 --> 00:11:43,799
they come out. I mean I
used to not anymore. Yeah, right,

171
00:11:43,120 --> 00:11:50,200
we have outgrown those beliefs. Yeah, yeah, And but today I

172
00:11:50,279 --> 00:11:54,720
have some actual allegedly haunted statues,
not my imagine, our imagination, because

173
00:11:54,720 --> 00:12:01,799
we both thought this. The first
one Islen Woo the Devil in the Garden

174
00:12:03,000 --> 00:12:05,840
of the Garden one of those.
I think both work. I don't know

175
00:12:05,120 --> 00:12:09,519
English second language. So many years
ago, there was once a man who

176
00:12:09,559 --> 00:12:15,559
lived on a farm that was located
on La Avenida, Argentina. I like

177
00:12:15,679 --> 00:12:18,759
that name, he was going to
say that. Yah. Yeah. He

178
00:12:18,840 --> 00:12:22,679
was a greedy man who called upon
the devil to grant him a wish.

179
00:12:22,840 --> 00:12:26,000
The man told the devil that if
he helped him win the biggest lottery in

180
00:12:26,000 --> 00:12:28,080
the region, he would give him
his soul and build a statue in his

181
00:12:28,159 --> 00:12:33,600
honor so that everyone could see it
and worship him. The devil agreed,

182
00:12:33,639 --> 00:12:35,879
and soon the man's wish came true, and he won the lottery and returned.

183
00:12:35,879 --> 00:12:39,679
The man made good on his promise, and he began to build the

184
00:12:39,720 --> 00:12:43,679
statue. He worked tirelessly to finish
it, but just before it was completed,

185
00:12:43,799 --> 00:12:48,440
several neighbors heard loud, agonizing screams
coming from the man's farm. When

186
00:12:48,480 --> 00:12:52,200
the townspeople went to check on the
man, they found him paralyzed and in

187
00:12:52,200 --> 00:12:56,559
a similar pose as the statue.
WHOA, that's good. Quickly no one

188
00:12:56,559 --> 00:13:01,720
could explain what happened to the farmer, but the townspeople began to believe that

189
00:13:01,720 --> 00:13:05,440
the man's soul became trapped in the
statue. Is that not? What I

190
00:13:05,519 --> 00:13:09,879
said? Is exactly? Wow?
Did you did you know the story?

191
00:13:11,440 --> 00:13:15,639
I guess, I guess deep down
did and deep down in your soul that

192
00:13:15,679 --> 00:13:18,159
you still have because you didn't sell
it to the devil? Exactly exactly Yeah,

193
00:13:18,240 --> 00:13:24,200
yet not yet. The statue itself
was terrifying, with many who claimed

194
00:13:24,240 --> 00:13:28,399
to have seen it saying it was
the color white and the same height as

195
00:13:28,480 --> 00:13:31,879
an adult it had a pointy goatee, large horns, and a diabolical grin

196
00:13:33,159 --> 00:13:37,200
with a stair that struck fear in
you yiankes terrible. Some also claimed that

197
00:13:37,240 --> 00:13:41,120
the statue was kneeling on its left
leg while its right hand was over its

198
00:13:41,120 --> 00:13:46,240
bent right leg. I'm sorry what
yah? So it was it was kneeling

199
00:13:46,639 --> 00:13:50,960
because left leg was touching the ground, the right leg was up, and

200
00:13:50,000 --> 00:13:54,200
it was resting its hands on the
right leg. Oh I see, I

201
00:13:54,279 --> 00:13:56,559
see. Yeah. So the leg
that was up was the right one,

202
00:13:56,600 --> 00:14:00,200
and that's the one that the hands
were on. Yeah, so like you

203
00:14:00,600 --> 00:14:03,759
how you this doesn't work? But
you see I can like, okay,

204
00:14:03,879 --> 00:14:11,600
yes, yeah, I didn't think
you were gonna acted out, so I

205
00:14:11,679 --> 00:14:16,720
needed to want to see Carmen acting
individualize it. Okay, that makes sense.

206
00:14:16,799 --> 00:14:20,759
Yeah, that's why I did that. I didn't know. No,

207
00:14:22,600 --> 00:14:26,159
oh my god. Additional claims also
say that the statue's left hand held a

208
00:14:26,279 --> 00:14:31,519
flute, and others say was holding
onto its beard. It's terrifying that people

209
00:14:31,840 --> 00:14:35,200
remember a different things. Yeah.
I don't like it. No, Like

210
00:14:35,240 --> 00:14:39,919
it's changing knows you're reading it or
saying it and then changing itself, yes

211
00:14:41,039 --> 00:14:43,200
to reflect whatever, whatever. A
flute means I don't know. I don't

212
00:14:43,200 --> 00:14:48,360
know. Musicians are diabolical though,
so they always sell their soul. Yeah.

213
00:14:48,399 --> 00:14:52,399
And if a guy, if a
man, is a musicians, he's

214
00:14:52,440 --> 00:14:56,440
gonna break your heart. So that's
why they learned the guitar. Guitar.

215
00:14:56,039 --> 00:15:01,159
Yeah. And if he can sing, oh my god, it's over.

216
00:15:01,000 --> 00:15:07,240
Don't even go there, no hurt. The same about dancers, and if

217
00:15:07,240 --> 00:15:11,879
they can sing and dance, you're
fucking dud. Don't even unless you're looking

218
00:15:11,960 --> 00:15:15,919
to get your heartbroken. That's time. Some people want that, you know,

219
00:15:16,000 --> 00:15:20,519
to feel alive. I don't know
either way. The frightening statue became

220
00:15:20,559 --> 00:15:22,720
an eyesore in the town, so
the townspeople tried to get rid of it

221
00:15:22,799 --> 00:15:28,120
by throwing it down the river,
but somehow it always should back up guiji

222
00:15:28,200 --> 00:15:31,000
board uh huh yeah, And yeah
it showed back up just fine, like

223
00:15:31,279 --> 00:15:35,919
like nothing that ever happened to it. Uh huh yeah, like new wow.

224
00:15:35,000 --> 00:15:39,720
For the next following years, several
people in the town reported having an

225
00:15:39,720 --> 00:15:43,639
eerie feeling whenever they passed by the
statue, but no one dared to try

226
00:15:43,639 --> 00:15:46,039
and move it again. They feared
they would meet the same tragic fate as

227
00:15:46,039 --> 00:15:50,480
the farmer who built it. In
nineteen sixty five, though a man bought

228
00:15:50,519 --> 00:15:54,559
the farmer's property and opened a restaurant
called The Restaurant became popular, and even

229
00:15:54,600 --> 00:15:58,720
though the restaurant owner claimed that the
statue was not haunted, many people from

230
00:15:58,720 --> 00:16:03,960
across the country still visited the restaurant
to have a chance to stare into the

231
00:16:03,000 --> 00:16:10,039
statue's eyes and possibly catch a glimpse
of the farmer's soul who was supposedly trapped

232
00:16:10,039 --> 00:16:11,879
in it. Well, I'd do
that. I do that because there's no

233
00:16:12,000 --> 00:16:15,120
risk there. I think if you're
just going looking at a statue and leaving,

234
00:16:15,480 --> 00:16:18,399
I mean, nothing's going to happen, right if you look at the

235
00:16:18,480 --> 00:16:21,200
n eyes so far or no,
I don't think so, other than it

236
00:16:21,279 --> 00:16:23,159
didn't say it was going to still
their soul or anything like that. So

237
00:16:23,480 --> 00:16:29,360
eventually the restaurant's owner sold their property, and with the restaurant, the statue

238
00:16:29,399 --> 00:16:33,399
also disappeared. What it was just
gone one day. No one knows what

239
00:16:33,440 --> 00:16:37,080
happened to the statue, and photos
of it do not exist, but many

240
00:16:37,240 --> 00:16:41,039
claim that the new owners threw it
away and replaced it with the Holy Water

241
00:16:41,240 --> 00:16:45,360
Fountain, hoping that it'll keep evil
energy away. Honestly, I'm not a

242
00:16:45,360 --> 00:16:47,720
fan of that. I wish they
would have kept it. Me too,

243
00:16:47,960 --> 00:16:49,720
me too. Like they said of
themselves that it wasn't haunted. Why don't

244
00:16:49,720 --> 00:16:52,799
I just leave it there? Yeah, nothing was happening, you know.

245
00:16:53,440 --> 00:16:57,399
Yeah, like if you want to
be somewhere where there's holy water, just

246
00:16:57,440 --> 00:17:00,399
go to church. Yeah, but
leave the statue, like, don't bring

247
00:17:00,440 --> 00:17:03,279
the holy water to the restaurant.
Although it was in a restaurant anymore,

248
00:17:03,279 --> 00:17:06,519
I guess. So, yeah,
I don't know. I don't know what

249
00:17:06,599 --> 00:17:08,880
it was after the Yeah, let
to see if it's in here, Okay,

250
00:17:08,920 --> 00:17:12,200
I don't know if it became anything. Even though the city of Parana

251
00:17:12,359 --> 00:17:17,000
has changed a lot since the devil
statue was there, some people like the

252
00:17:17,079 --> 00:17:22,359
architect Marcello Almost, who lived there
years and it's the director of the Museum

253
00:17:22,480 --> 00:17:26,079
of Drossa Galisteo, swears the statue
was real. Yeah, I guess.

254
00:17:26,119 --> 00:17:29,960
Yeah. There's people that still remember
it and people that have no idea.

255
00:17:30,200 --> 00:17:33,640
I never saw it, and it's
just gone like it's nowhere now, it's

256
00:17:33,720 --> 00:17:37,000
nowhere. So Marcello almost says that
the statue was a fun and not a

257
00:17:37,079 --> 00:17:41,160
devil, but other people swear it
was a devil. Yeah, like a

258
00:17:41,200 --> 00:17:48,119
goat, but it had legs.
It's like a centaur. But I'm imagining,

259
00:17:48,400 --> 00:17:52,160
Okay, that's exactly what I was
picturing, you know, like the

260
00:17:52,200 --> 00:17:56,480
guy from Hercules. Oh yeah,
yeah, yeah, yeah, where he's

261
00:17:56,519 --> 00:17:59,599
like a half goat, half person. Yeah, that's what I was picturing

262
00:17:59,680 --> 00:18:02,960
also, but also like the centaurs
from Harry Potter. Okay, they have

263
00:18:03,039 --> 00:18:06,960
four legs and he only has two
legs. Yeah, okay, well that's

264
00:18:06,960 --> 00:18:10,039
still pretty creepy even if it wasn't. I mean, I could use that

265
00:18:10,119 --> 00:18:12,359
for the devil for sure, Like
yeah, but even that has warns,

266
00:18:12,519 --> 00:18:15,079
you know. Yeah, yeah,
that's not a fun that's the devil.

267
00:18:15,839 --> 00:18:19,640
Nowadays, the farm and the statue
no longer stand and instead it's a commercial

268
00:18:19,680 --> 00:18:25,160
building. That's what it is now. Thanks Don. I was wondering what

269
00:18:25,240 --> 00:18:27,960
it was now, so glad she
answered that. Wor us. Why is

270
00:18:27,960 --> 00:18:32,960
there no pictures of it? Did
it say in the years? So the

271
00:18:33,079 --> 00:18:37,759
restaurant opened in nineteen sixty five,
and matter how long the restaurant was opened

272
00:18:37,880 --> 00:18:41,680
before it closed down, I mean, yeah, there would could be pictures

273
00:18:41,720 --> 00:18:48,640
of it then. Yeah, I
wish that would have been cool. Yeah,

290
00:20:08,759 --> 00:20:11,440
on TikTok, but you know,
like very briefly because it's a one minute

291
00:20:11,519 --> 00:20:15,559
video. Actually, I think this
is like forty five seconds what I uploaded

292
00:20:15,519 --> 00:20:22,079
it to TikTok. But this is
the legend of in Chihuahua. Interesting.

293
00:20:22,240 --> 00:20:26,720
I'm hooked already. Yeah, I
mean, you know, you just hear

294
00:20:26,720 --> 00:20:30,240
that and you're like what, You're
like intriguing, and like if you pass

295
00:20:30,319 --> 00:20:33,440
by this statue or monument, I
think you pass by and you're like,

296
00:20:33,440 --> 00:20:38,079
what the fuck? Because it is
the so I mean, hence the name

297
00:20:40,400 --> 00:20:44,279
the Seven Little Heads. It's a
big, like rectangular monument. It's it's

298
00:20:44,319 --> 00:20:48,680
big, and then in the middle
there's like bronze seven bronze heads, seven

299
00:20:48,720 --> 00:20:52,119
bronze heads, yeah, yeah,
of little boys. And then underneath each

300
00:20:52,279 --> 00:20:57,920
head there's a name of each boy. And then there's a bigger plaque that

301
00:20:59,039 --> 00:21:02,480
I cannot find a clear picture of
it, and I don't know what it

302
00:21:02,519 --> 00:21:04,960
says, yeah, but I think
it just is talking about maybe what happened

303
00:21:04,960 --> 00:21:07,279
on that day, which I'm going
to tell you what happened on that day.

304
00:21:07,400 --> 00:21:12,640
So on kilometer twenty one of the
Catererica. This is a road in

305
00:21:12,720 --> 00:21:17,119
Chihuahua, Chihuahua, Chihawa. So
the city of Chihuahua in the state of

306
00:21:17,160 --> 00:21:22,319
Chihuahua in Mexico, just passed a
road known as La sometimes also called Laura

307
00:21:22,559 --> 00:21:26,119
Perico. Either way, it's a
dangerous curve. Well I prefer the parrot

308
00:21:26,200 --> 00:21:33,599
name, yeah, right, parrot
curve or death curve, Yeah, exactly.

309
00:21:33,920 --> 00:21:40,720
So just past that curve there's a
monument depicting the seven heads of young

310
00:21:40,799 --> 00:21:44,400
boys and a plaque like I just
described. This monument was put up after

311
00:21:44,519 --> 00:21:48,960
a tragic accident. So on August
first, nineteen thirty nine, twenty five

312
00:21:48,039 --> 00:21:52,599
boys, all age ten to fourteen. They were all part of the Young

313
00:21:52,640 --> 00:21:57,480
Men's Christian Association of Chihuahua, so
the YMCA. I just never knew what

314
00:21:57,559 --> 00:22:02,720
the letters were I heard before then, like I forget those every time I

315
00:22:02,799 --> 00:22:04,759
hear it, it's like a shock, Like what really that's what it's called.

316
00:22:06,720 --> 00:22:10,400
I don't know. It was a
religious organization either. Anyway, they

317
00:22:10,400 --> 00:22:15,359
were traveling on and this is a
truck, like a cargo truck. And

318
00:22:15,480 --> 00:22:22,359
if you've seen old like even pictures
from like the labor union strikes, like

319
00:22:22,720 --> 00:22:26,400
farmers, farmers, Oh my god, what are they called? Farm workers.

320
00:22:26,960 --> 00:22:30,559
There's these trucks and on the back
they have like wood panels. Are

321
00:22:30,640 --> 00:22:33,960
okay, yeah, and we're talking
that is that is the truck. So

322
00:22:34,240 --> 00:22:38,200
these type of trucks are they're not
made anymore because they're not really safe.

323
00:22:40,000 --> 00:22:44,920
Uh yeah, yeah. And you
know back then they were used to carry

324
00:22:44,960 --> 00:22:48,440
people in the back and so you
know, this was very normal, very

325
00:22:48,480 --> 00:22:53,079
common, and so the some of
the boys, I want to say most

326
00:22:53,079 --> 00:22:57,039
of the boys were sitting in the
back of the truck on boxes and they

327
00:22:57,039 --> 00:23:02,920
were headed to a national park,
all also in Chihuahua, and they were

328
00:23:02,920 --> 00:23:04,799
going to camp there for a week. And this was a normal ride,

329
00:23:04,920 --> 00:23:07,759
you know, as young boys are
going to do in the back of a

330
00:23:07,799 --> 00:23:11,200
truck. They're laughing, they're singing, apparently they were yelling at house,

331
00:23:12,000 --> 00:23:17,720
you know whatever boy things. And
then it was five pm that afternoon when

332
00:23:17,759 --> 00:23:22,440
another vehicle they were heading to that
curve that I just mentioned. So they

333
00:23:22,480 --> 00:23:26,039
were they were going and this doesn't
make sense if you're on audio, but

334
00:23:26,039 --> 00:23:30,079
they were going that way on the
curve like the car north. Yes,

335
00:23:30,400 --> 00:23:33,400
yeah, yeah, yeah, so
they were Yeah, they were going like

336
00:23:33,519 --> 00:23:37,519
north. They were going to take
the turn, and then coming down the

337
00:23:37,559 --> 00:23:40,920
curve was another car. Yikes.
And again, like I said, it

338
00:23:40,960 --> 00:23:44,400
was a dangerous curve. They didn't
see the truck. And then later the

339
00:23:44,519 --> 00:23:48,279
driver of that vehicle said that his
brakes weren't working, but that he did

340
00:23:48,319 --> 00:23:52,559
see the truck. So it was
like a conflicting story either way. He

341
00:23:52,640 --> 00:23:56,680
came straight down the curve. They
were turning at a slower velocity. Then

342
00:23:56,799 --> 00:24:00,599
that truck driver was coming down,
so they crashed. They my head on,

343
00:24:00,240 --> 00:24:04,000
yes, and these boys were on
the back of the truck. So

344
00:24:04,440 --> 00:24:10,599
seven of the boys died. Four
of them died like sorry. Three of

345
00:24:10,599 --> 00:24:14,000
them died on the spot after the
crash. Four of them died in the

346
00:24:14,039 --> 00:24:18,000
hospital. However, if you hear
versions of the legend, some will say

347
00:24:18,039 --> 00:24:22,880
that they were decapitated during the crash, which is not true. It's just

348
00:24:22,960 --> 00:24:26,400
part of the legend. They were
not decapitated. It's more ominous though,

349
00:24:26,440 --> 00:24:29,960
if you think that the seven boys
were decapitated and then there's a monument with

350
00:24:30,000 --> 00:24:33,240
their heads, yeah, I would
fall from that, or I would believe

351
00:24:33,279 --> 00:24:37,599
the legend because of the seven Little
Hints, and it's probably why that version

352
00:24:37,640 --> 00:24:42,119
exists. There's also versions of the
legend that say it's a bus and not

353
00:24:42,319 --> 00:24:45,319
a cargo truck, and that the
kids were sticking their head out of the

354
00:24:45,359 --> 00:24:49,559
windows, oh man, when another
bigger truck passed by, and then that's

355
00:24:49,559 --> 00:24:53,319
how they were decapitated. That was
like a popular like urban myth. Yeah,

356
00:24:53,440 --> 00:24:57,920
I was deadly, deadly, frankly
yeah yeah, stick in my hand

357
00:24:57,960 --> 00:25:00,599
out, Oh yeah, that I
was gonna say. Yeah, I thought

358
00:25:00,599 --> 00:25:04,359
a car was gonna clutch us my
head. Yeah yeah, I wouldn't never

359
00:25:04,440 --> 00:25:07,279
and every time I saw dogs and
this is kid me, not me now,

360
00:25:07,400 --> 00:25:11,920
But I also thought that it was
like your head back in Yeah,

361
00:25:11,119 --> 00:25:18,160
like I know you like it,
but please you're in danger, legit or

362
00:25:18,279 --> 00:25:21,640
for those dogs, Yeah, reminds
me our poor dog. We had a

363
00:25:21,640 --> 00:25:26,160
little dog named Peewee, and my
art art dad, for some reason,

364
00:25:26,880 --> 00:25:30,079
was driving a truck and instead of
bringing our little tiny dog in front with

365
00:25:30,160 --> 00:25:33,240
him, he put him in the
bag on the freeway. And then he

366
00:25:33,359 --> 00:25:40,400
was driving and from from his mirror, his yeah, the side of his

367
00:25:40,440 --> 00:25:44,960
mirror, he just saw our dog
dangling. Another car honked at him and

368
00:25:45,000 --> 00:25:48,319
I thought the car was being like
crazy trying to pass or being like you

369
00:25:48,359 --> 00:25:51,880
know that kind of driver, like
trying to pass him up or just honking

370
00:25:51,960 --> 00:25:55,440
for no reason. And then like
finally flung him down and was pointed in

371
00:25:55,480 --> 00:25:59,519
the bag. My dog's like what
and he looks in the rear view mirror

372
00:25:59,599 --> 00:26:04,000
or the mirror and then he sees
our fucking dog dangling from his leash.

373
00:26:04,079 --> 00:26:08,319
Hey, you know, for dear
life, that poor dog. Were not

374
00:26:08,480 --> 00:26:11,720
listened to him for like a month
after or longer. I don't even remember.

375
00:26:12,000 --> 00:26:15,839
Pee wee was a survivor, he
survived that. I could not believe

376
00:26:15,839 --> 00:26:18,440
it. So, you know,
after hearing that, I was like,

377
00:26:18,440 --> 00:26:22,880
Okay, dogs sticking their head out
of the window. They're safe because our

378
00:26:22,920 --> 00:26:26,839
dogs survived dangling for the side of
a truck on the freeway. Like yeah,

379
00:26:26,880 --> 00:26:30,319
anyway, So yeah, these boys
were not sticking their head out of

380
00:26:30,359 --> 00:26:34,519
the window, as the popular legend
will depict. No, they were sitting

381
00:26:34,559 --> 00:26:38,559
in the back on boxes and that's
very dangerous to do, obviously, but

382
00:26:38,599 --> 00:26:42,640
again, this is what's normal at
the time. So one of the survivors,

383
00:26:44,480 --> 00:26:48,720
Alberto Contreras, he said that all
of their things after the accident everything

384
00:26:48,759 --> 00:26:51,839
was all over the road. It
was a horrible site. Clothes, food,

385
00:26:51,960 --> 00:26:56,240
blankets, the boxes that the boys
were using as seats, and blood,

386
00:26:56,440 --> 00:26:59,680
blood everywhere. Plus you know,
their friends that had passed away.

387
00:27:00,079 --> 00:27:02,680
And yeah, like I said,
part of the legend, will you know

388
00:27:02,759 --> 00:27:06,319
say that all boys died at the
same time, like they're on the SPA,

389
00:27:06,480 --> 00:27:08,359
but three of them did. Four
passed away in the hospital later.

390
00:27:08,440 --> 00:27:14,279
It was a tragic accident. The
whole state of Chihuahua was mourning the death

391
00:27:14,319 --> 00:27:15,920
of the boys because I mean,
it's like it's seven kids. They were

392
00:27:15,960 --> 00:27:19,039
so young too. Yeah, they
were so young. And I will say,

393
00:27:19,119 --> 00:27:22,400
I mean, I think every country
but Mexico like loves kids. And

394
00:27:23,279 --> 00:27:29,400
like when you go to Helisco,
there's these signs everywhere that's say or when

395
00:27:29,440 --> 00:27:32,799
you mean well, and it doesn't
make sense to me because none of it

396
00:27:32,839 --> 00:27:37,160
is really the sidewalk is dangerous.
Yeah, no, it's true, it

397
00:27:37,319 --> 00:27:41,279
is. It doesn't it's not child
friendly, but there's signs everywhere. The

398
00:27:41,319 --> 00:27:45,400
city's structure is not child friendly.
But okay, yeah, people love kids.

399
00:27:45,480 --> 00:27:48,799
Like I've said this before on the
podcast, but when I traveled to

400
00:27:48,880 --> 00:27:55,880
Mexico compared to traveling to within the
States. Yeah, people are so nice

401
00:27:55,920 --> 00:28:00,480
in Mexico. They're like they'll help
you hold your child with like, oh

402
00:28:00,480 --> 00:28:03,720
you need help here, let me
grab them and whatever's it's it's very nice

403
00:28:04,480 --> 00:28:08,400
anyway. So yeah, people they
were very sad. They were mourning the

404
00:28:08,440 --> 00:28:12,599
loss of these seven children, and
so they put up a monument on the

405
00:28:12,759 --> 00:28:18,559
twenty sixth of May and nineteen forty
and this was built to forever remember the

406
00:28:18,640 --> 00:28:22,000
young boys who died on that tragic
day. Well also to warn other drivers

407
00:28:22,079 --> 00:28:25,960
of the dangerous curve. Like they
thought maybe they'll see this and like,

408
00:28:26,000 --> 00:28:29,759
hey, these kids died here,
like this curve slowed down. It's dangerous.

409
00:28:29,960 --> 00:28:37,039
Yeah. The boys who died it
was a fourteen year old Venacio Gabriel

410
00:28:37,640 --> 00:28:41,240
and Jorge Yokoman. They were all
fourteen. No I messed up something here.

411
00:28:41,440 --> 00:28:44,440
They were thirteen or fourteen, okay, oh, no, I got

412
00:28:44,440 --> 00:28:48,839
it. Venacio and Armando were fourteen, Jorge Yokoman was thirteen. Luise Diaz

413
00:28:48,920 --> 00:28:56,039
Garcia and Theodoro Faulkner they were eleven. Interesting last name, that's so young.

414
00:28:56,759 --> 00:29:03,160
Yeah, and then Alberto Menespenya and
Racio Brundo were ten. Oh my

415
00:29:03,279 --> 00:29:06,680
god. Even younger, even younger. Yeah, some of these names.

416
00:29:06,759 --> 00:29:11,359
I just love their like old timing
names. Vinacio, yeah, though it

417
00:29:11,440 --> 00:29:14,240
was making a comeback in English at
least. I don't know about Spanish.

418
00:29:14,559 --> 00:29:17,480
Really, I didn't know that.
Yeah, Theodore. There's a lot of

419
00:29:17,519 --> 00:29:23,319
Theos. Although I will say twenty
eighteen children that are some type of Latino.

420
00:29:23,400 --> 00:29:26,799
Latino, that kid's gonna be named
Matteo. When I'm at the park

421
00:29:26,880 --> 00:29:30,400
with my Matteo. There's a ton
of fun there. Weren't the only one

422
00:29:30,480 --> 00:29:33,400
that chose that name that year,
No, I was not. It's a

423
00:29:33,519 --> 00:29:37,160
very popular name. And you know
what, I don't even care because he's

424
00:29:37,200 --> 00:29:41,799
going to experience. There's like a
bunch of Christina's in the classroom. It's

425
00:29:41,799 --> 00:29:47,599
so funny because in every grade there's
maybe one other Carmen or no other Carmens

426
00:29:47,640 --> 00:29:51,880
in our grade in high school and
there were like three other Christinas and every

427
00:29:51,880 --> 00:29:55,559
one of my classes. Yeah yeah, and so I have a complex about

428
00:29:55,559 --> 00:29:59,160
it. And when I started working
where I am now, there was so

429
00:29:59,200 --> 00:30:03,079
there's three units within my like uh
huh, actual unit, and there was

430
00:30:03,160 --> 00:30:07,519
a Carmen in one of the other
units, and they were like Carmon whatever

431
00:30:07,680 --> 00:30:11,559
initial it wasn't Carmon H. And
I was so not used to it.

432
00:30:11,839 --> 00:30:15,200
And then she changed units, and
then people sometimes we were still writing Carmon

433
00:30:15,319 --> 00:30:15,480
H. And I was like,
no, no, no, no,

434
00:30:15,920 --> 00:30:19,680
there's no Carmon shere anymore. I'm
just Carmen. And then I made them

435
00:30:19,880 --> 00:30:26,519
reprint the because they have the list. I'm a monster. They have a

436
00:30:27,319 --> 00:30:30,640
they said, not always pronown a
list of phone numbers for everybody, and

437
00:30:30,640 --> 00:30:34,720
then what's the birthdays? And then
somebody had ran Carmon H. And I

438
00:30:34,799 --> 00:30:37,279
was like, no, no,
no, no, there's no more Carmon

439
00:30:37,480 --> 00:30:42,240
H. Let's reprint this to just
take Carmen please. Oh they just roll

440
00:30:42,319 --> 00:30:47,759
their eyes at me. So,
yeah, he's gonna have the same experience.

441
00:30:47,799 --> 00:30:51,960
There's gonna be like Mattel H,
Mattel L, Mattel whatever. It's

442
00:30:52,000 --> 00:30:55,079
gonna be funny. I'm curious to
see about Sammy. And like I said

443
00:30:55,079 --> 00:30:57,079
earlier, I can't find clear pictures
of what the plaque said. I imagine

444
00:30:57,079 --> 00:31:02,279
it says something about the tragic day
and probably on this day, like on

445
00:31:02,359 --> 00:31:06,839
this dangerous road, like these boys
lost their lives, like be careful when

446
00:31:06,880 --> 00:31:08,720
you're dry, or something like yeah, that's what I imagine if anyone is

447
00:31:08,759 --> 00:31:11,039
in the area, let me know, I want to see like a clear,

448
00:31:11,279 --> 00:31:14,799
clearer thing of this plague. But
yeah, you can go see the

449
00:31:14,839 --> 00:31:18,400
moneyming yourself. It's it's there.
Sadly, it is a little tagged up

450
00:31:18,880 --> 00:31:22,519
as things become, you know,
over the years. Yeah yeah. Drivers

451
00:31:22,559 --> 00:31:26,720
that passed by at night claim to
see a couple of boys running across the

452
00:31:26,759 --> 00:31:30,680
streets. Oh my god, and
when they like break they disappear in front

453
00:31:30,680 --> 00:31:33,680
of them before their eyes. And
you know this is right by the monument.

454
00:31:34,799 --> 00:31:37,480
Man is the drivers that are going
too fast and the boys are like,

455
00:31:37,480 --> 00:31:41,240
you better calm your tits. I
wonder you know what there is.

456
00:31:41,319 --> 00:31:45,000
There was a comment in one of
the sources that I used that said,

457
00:31:45,119 --> 00:31:49,160
like, many believe they're being warned
to slow down by the boys who don't

458
00:31:49,160 --> 00:31:55,160
want other people to relive. That
makes sense, to suffer the s Yeah.

459
00:31:55,440 --> 00:32:00,200
Others that have gone during the day
even claim to see the boys crying.

460
00:32:00,599 --> 00:32:06,759
Oh the faces and the statues of
the statues like crying scary but sad.

461
00:32:06,880 --> 00:32:10,240
At the same time, others claim
to hear screams of children in the

462
00:32:10,319 --> 00:32:14,839
area. That's scary. Yes,
yeah, I think I'd rather see the

463
00:32:14,839 --> 00:32:16,680
crying statues. Me too, Me
too. I wouldn't want to see the

464
00:32:16,759 --> 00:32:20,160
running across the street. Oh no, no, no, no no.

465
00:32:20,400 --> 00:32:25,240
Others say that the boys who died
that day are condemned to repeat the accident

466
00:32:25,359 --> 00:32:31,519
for eternity. Why picture that.
It's not even that they're physically they're repeating

467
00:32:31,559 --> 00:32:36,240
it, but it's like a okay, like a warning, like not a

468
00:32:36,279 --> 00:32:39,400
warning, but like you know,
sometimes things happen in the house and it's

469
00:32:39,440 --> 00:32:44,960
like a type of hunting that is
like talking about Yeah, yeah, but

470
00:32:45,000 --> 00:32:46,920
I don't there's a word for it. There is, Yeah, like a

471
00:32:47,000 --> 00:32:53,319
residual Yeah, yeah, you remember
wow a for me? Yeah, but

472
00:32:53,440 --> 00:32:58,079
yeah, I almost think that it's
a residual hunting that people are seeing it,

473
00:32:58,279 --> 00:33:00,839
yeah, but that the boys are
not. They're off living their lives

474
00:33:01,000 --> 00:33:07,720
in heaven and they're happy afterlife wherever
you know, we go afterwards. Yeah,

475
00:33:07,880 --> 00:33:12,359
that's what I hope at least.
Yeah, But many people like will

476
00:33:12,480 --> 00:33:15,200
hear the sounds of a crash when
there's no other cars around. It sounds

477
00:33:15,240 --> 00:33:20,599
like a residual haunting whatever it's called, and then hear those screams. So

478
00:33:20,920 --> 00:33:24,720
that's what I think. But people
that experienced that haven't actually seen it happening,

479
00:33:24,839 --> 00:33:29,279
they just hear it. Yeah,
and then and then obviously the what

480
00:33:29,519 --> 00:33:32,920
I guess kind of contradicts that it's
a residual haunting though the running is there

481
00:33:32,920 --> 00:33:37,960
people that have seen the boys running
across, so I don't know, very

482
00:33:37,000 --> 00:33:42,200
creepy. Every year, on the
day of the accident, there's an homage

483
00:33:42,240 --> 00:33:45,960
to the seven Boys, so people
gather and they're still at least a couple

484
00:33:45,960 --> 00:33:49,640
of years ago I found an article. No I think it's like it was

485
00:33:49,680 --> 00:33:52,640
like five years old now, there
was a one or two of the survivors,

486
00:33:52,680 --> 00:33:57,119
you know, standing up there talking
about the boys, and there's cameras.

487
00:33:57,279 --> 00:34:00,039
I'll find the picture because there is. Yeah, they're still have this

488
00:34:00,119 --> 00:34:02,440
every year, and they partly do
this, at least they say, and

489
00:34:02,519 --> 00:34:07,000
hopes that the boys find peace and
move on, but probably also just to

490
00:34:07,039 --> 00:34:10,960
commemorate them, especially because the last
article I found there was still a couple

491
00:34:12,000 --> 00:34:19,239
of survivors alive and present. So
yeah, that was. And I'll post

492
00:34:19,280 --> 00:34:22,760
pictures because it's it's a strange monuments
to look at. I can't wait to

493
00:34:22,760 --> 00:34:29,039
see because I'm a little ominous.
It sounds scary like given this monument itself.

494
00:34:29,239 --> 00:34:31,480
Yeah, it's just like seven heads
there. It's I don't like it.

495
00:34:31,559 --> 00:34:37,639
I don't like it or no,
you'll see it's a it's like a

496
00:34:37,159 --> 00:34:40,360
like a okay okay, oh yeah, I described it a little bit.

497
00:34:40,360 --> 00:34:44,280
The heads are sticking out. They're
not like, well, I guess a

498
00:34:44,280 --> 00:34:49,239
little amount Rushmore style now like maybe
a little bit okay. And then I

499
00:34:49,280 --> 00:34:52,639
have one more just bonus statue that
I wasn't going to include, but I

500
00:34:52,639 --> 00:34:53,760
found a last minute because I was
like, you know what, we have

501
00:34:53,800 --> 00:34:58,000
a lot of listeners in California.
Let me just see if there's a haunted

502
00:34:58,079 --> 00:35:02,639
statue story in California. And there
is. So in Bakersfield, there's only

503
00:35:02,760 --> 00:35:07,719
one roundabout on all the Bakersfield Yeah, Shadow Bakery. Weren't you just there?

504
00:35:07,039 --> 00:35:15,519
I just drove by their exactly the
way two and back from lah Yeah,

505
00:35:15,639 --> 00:35:20,440
yes, I was there. Yeah. Yeah. But in Bakersfield there's

506
00:35:20,519 --> 00:35:23,280
one roundabout. It's known as the
circle or like I don't know how to

507
00:35:23,320 --> 00:35:29,119
pronounce this either car seas circle,
I don't know. It's apparently just known

508
00:35:29,119 --> 00:35:31,519
as a circle because there's the only
roundabout in Bakersfield. So if you're in

509
00:35:31,559 --> 00:35:35,679
Bakersfield or you've driven through it,
it's the only one you would have seen

510
00:35:35,719 --> 00:35:39,280
it. And also there's a big
statue. This roundabout was built in nineteen

511
00:35:39,320 --> 00:35:45,119
thirty two and it was part of
Highway ninety nine's construction. And since its

512
00:35:45,119 --> 00:35:51,199
construction there's been talk of paranormal activity
there because in the middle of the roundabout

513
00:35:51,239 --> 00:35:55,239
there's a big statue of a Franciscan
missionary. Oh, it must be Garsis,

514
00:35:55,320 --> 00:35:59,639
because these missionaries are all Spanish.
Spanish, yeah, probably, yeah,

515
00:35:59,719 --> 00:36:06,239
so that makes sense. So was
added to the center of the circle

516
00:36:06,239 --> 00:36:09,880
in nineteen thirty nine, and after
that that's when the stories began. So

517
00:36:10,400 --> 00:36:16,480
drivers report seeing the statue wave its
arm yaikes, very yaike. Get into

518
00:36:16,480 --> 00:36:23,400
a car accident after that? Right, well, apparently some wreck victims reported

519
00:36:23,440 --> 00:36:29,880
that they heard the statue utter a
prayer right before the car crash. Are

520
00:36:29,880 --> 00:36:32,519
you freaking serious? Oh my god? Yeah, like a warning? Processing

521
00:36:32,559 --> 00:36:37,599
that insurance claim? Right, well, I heard it pray and do the

522
00:36:37,840 --> 00:36:44,360
excuse me? Denied? Claim denied? You were clearly your AFT fault.

523
00:36:44,920 --> 00:36:51,199
Yeah, So people think that the
waving or hearing it prey is it's warning

524
00:36:51,199 --> 00:36:54,000
you that you're going to get in
a car accident or it's causing it honestly,

525
00:36:54,159 --> 00:37:01,280
look yeah, yeah, because wow, I would crash if I heard

526
00:37:01,280 --> 00:37:05,440
that. Yeah, because I would
be startled, because anything startles me.

527
00:37:05,800 --> 00:37:08,760
I could be sitting here really into
whatever I'm doing, and then like someone's

528
00:37:08,760 --> 00:37:13,800
like I can't my husband, it's
like Christina, I'm like, oh yeah,

529
00:37:13,880 --> 00:37:15,519
yeah no. But the other day
I was driving my car and I

530
00:37:15,599 --> 00:37:19,440
continuing like this squeaky noise, and
now I think it's like how I was.

531
00:37:19,559 --> 00:37:21,400
I don't know if it's my wheel
or what. I was like,

532
00:37:21,400 --> 00:37:23,159
what if there's a mouse in my
car? But how would that even happen?

533
00:37:23,320 --> 00:37:28,599
Like I've never even did a mouse
here? Oh my god? And

534
00:37:28,639 --> 00:37:34,360
so I almost crashed. Yeah,
if there's drying in my car that I

535
00:37:34,440 --> 00:37:37,159
just I can't drive. I need
to part because I will crash. Don't

536
00:37:37,199 --> 00:37:39,800
even get sorry. I one time
there was a sucking b in my car.

537
00:37:39,920 --> 00:37:43,760
Wow, I would die. And
I hadn't gone and I saw it

538
00:37:44,239 --> 00:37:49,320
before. This is ridiculous, okay, because me and my husband we were

539
00:37:49,400 --> 00:37:52,360
going inside my car and then we
saw the bee and then both of us

540
00:37:52,480 --> 00:37:54,079
refusing to go inside the car,
and he wouldn't go and get the bee.

541
00:37:54,280 --> 00:37:58,039
And I was like, are you
serious? You know that I'm afraid

542
00:37:58,079 --> 00:38:01,800
of bees. I have a phobia
of bees, and he's just regularly scared

543
00:38:01,840 --> 00:38:05,800
of bees. It's not a phobia. It's not a phobia. So it's

544
00:38:05,840 --> 00:38:07,679
like, Okay, if you don't
have a phobia, then you have to

545
00:38:07,679 --> 00:38:09,039
be the brave, winning you'll get
to be. Yeah. And then some

546
00:38:09,159 --> 00:38:14,840
guy that was outside the store,
you know the cardboard sign, he used

547
00:38:14,880 --> 00:38:16,320
that, and I like him because
I was like, well, I'm not

548
00:38:16,320 --> 00:38:19,960
gonna do it, and neither is
Paul. So he went inside of my

549
00:38:20,000 --> 00:38:22,920
car and he got to be out. This is hilarious. Wow you tell

550
00:38:23,000 --> 00:38:28,000
me this. Oh yeah, So
I'm not surprised by Any's like, thank

551
00:38:28,039 --> 00:38:31,880
you sir. Wow. But imagine
if I heard that while I was driving,

552
00:38:31,920 --> 00:38:36,920
I wouldn't be here today. Yeah, yeah, I would probably be.

553
00:38:37,199 --> 00:38:39,880
Yeah. This is why I don't
drive to Bakersfield. There's a lot

554
00:38:39,920 --> 00:38:45,679
of not because I'm in another state. No, it's because also the father,

555
00:38:45,199 --> 00:38:50,480
right. I just remember that.
I was like, the bees,

556
00:38:51,119 --> 00:38:53,440
the bees. I know they're dying, but I'm afraid of them. I

557
00:38:53,480 --> 00:38:58,280
will I will help them from afar. I will hold them by keeping my

558
00:38:58,320 --> 00:39:00,719
distance. Yeah, because if you
get near when you're gonna like swing at

559
00:39:00,760 --> 00:39:04,599
it, No, I'll run for
my life. No, you will,

560
00:39:04,760 --> 00:39:07,679
you will. We might as well
tell the story already. When we were

561
00:39:07,920 --> 00:39:10,199
kids and we were in the Oakland
Zoo, Carmen and Louise have like ice

562
00:39:10,239 --> 00:39:14,760
cream or popsicles or something. I
don't remember. I just remember it melting

563
00:39:14,800 --> 00:39:17,280
in my hands as I was frozen
in fear. Yeah, and then they

564
00:39:17,280 --> 00:39:22,719
were surrounded by honestly and four bees. Yeah. But in my little kid

565
00:39:22,840 --> 00:39:25,760
head, which is how I remember
it now, it was a swarm of

566
00:39:25,800 --> 00:39:30,400
bees and you were screaming. You're
screaming, and I think away, Yes,

567
00:39:30,480 --> 00:39:34,760
yeah, I ran away. I
was going to save myself and me

568
00:39:34,880 --> 00:39:37,760
and Louise we froze, Yeah,
Carmen and our brother, and we were

569
00:39:37,760 --> 00:39:44,679
screaming, frozen from these swarm of
bees. I were in reality probably four

570
00:39:44,719 --> 00:39:47,559
bees, yeah, screaming for our
parents. And ever since then, Carmen

571
00:39:47,679 --> 00:39:52,559
has been very, very afraid of
bees. Remember as teens, we went

572
00:39:52,599 --> 00:39:54,000
to I don't know what lake,
and I didn't get out of the car

573
00:39:54,000 --> 00:40:00,239
because there was bees. Yes,
I remember, I just left me in

574
00:40:00,280 --> 00:40:02,880
my in the fucking car and they
went to enjoy whatever time with you guys,

575
00:40:02,920 --> 00:40:07,519
and I was just there in the
car we left. Yeah. Yeah,

576
00:40:07,559 --> 00:40:09,079
well this and this just shows that
it's a real fear of beace.

577
00:40:09,159 --> 00:40:15,320
It's not like a normal fear.
Yeah, but yeah, those have been

578
00:40:15,360 --> 00:40:19,840
the hunted statues, you know,
a little bonus when in California. But

579
00:40:20,119 --> 00:40:23,440
the other one in a Chiawa,
Mexico. And there's more a hunter statues

580
00:40:23,480 --> 00:40:28,400
that we've already shared throughout the podcast. There's one in Well, no,

581
00:40:28,519 --> 00:40:30,079
this isn't a statue. It's more
like a tombstone. I think it kind

582
00:40:30,119 --> 00:40:35,000
of counts as a statue. But
there's one in Halisco. It's not it's

583
00:40:35,000 --> 00:40:37,960
another town in Jalisco. I forgot
the name of it. But this grave,

584
00:40:38,119 --> 00:40:43,440
like this is a very homophobic legend, I think. But you've already

585
00:40:43,440 --> 00:40:45,920
shared it. I don't remember.
I don't remember if I shared it on

586
00:40:45,920 --> 00:40:47,960
TikTok or on the podcast, but
I was just a very short version of

587
00:40:47,960 --> 00:40:52,360
it. And I want to say, it's say Jalisco, and none of

588
00:40:52,360 --> 00:40:55,039
this sounds familiar. I don't think
you shared it on the podcast. Ah,

589
00:40:55,079 --> 00:41:00,960
there we go. It's even turned
into a movie. In a movie

590
00:41:00,159 --> 00:41:04,960
from the nineteen eighties with Antonio hi, lad. But according to a legend,

591
00:41:05,400 --> 00:41:08,360
the there's this statue and well,
this cemetery is haunted, right,

592
00:41:08,400 --> 00:41:14,199
and they would say that if you
went around a certain time, this statue

593
00:41:14,719 --> 00:41:16,360
would tell you where the treasure was, but you had to do it a

594
00:41:16,400 --> 00:41:22,119
favor, and it was a sexual
favor and the man. So a man

595
00:41:22,320 --> 00:41:24,199
was like tricked by his friend to
go to the cemetery because he owned the

596
00:41:24,280 --> 00:41:27,559
money, and he's like, you
need to get this treasure because like you

597
00:41:27,599 --> 00:41:30,039
owe me money. He needs to
give me my money, and so he

598
00:41:30,079 --> 00:41:32,800
goes and then it's like midnight or
whatever, and he's like, all right,

599
00:41:32,800 --> 00:41:36,320
well, my friend told me that
I had to come here at midnight

600
00:41:36,400 --> 00:41:38,360
and talk to you because it's like
a statue of a ghost. And then

601
00:41:38,360 --> 00:41:43,800
the man's spirit is said to also
manifest where the statue is at, and

602
00:41:44,119 --> 00:41:47,519
so then he tells this statue that
he's here for the treasure, and then

603
00:41:47,559 --> 00:41:50,800
the ghost is like, oh,
yes, it's right over there, but

604
00:41:50,880 --> 00:41:52,360
first you have to like, I
don't know, I'll tickle my butt or

605
00:41:52,400 --> 00:41:55,679
something like. It doesn't actually say
tickle my butt, but it's like a

606
00:41:55,719 --> 00:42:01,159
sexual favor. And then and then
ever the guy runs out of the cemetery

607
00:42:01,199 --> 00:42:05,639
and then never since. Then he
holds his hands behind his butt because he's

608
00:42:05,679 --> 00:42:08,320
like anyone anything in my butt.
I'm feel scared, Like, oh my

609
00:42:08,559 --> 00:42:14,960
god, it's a ridiculous legend,
Like that's that's the legend. Are you

610
00:42:15,000 --> 00:42:17,320
serious? Yeah, that's a very
short version of it. It's it's I'm

611
00:42:17,320 --> 00:42:24,400
like, why does this even exist? Wow? Yeah, I'm and not

612
00:42:24,559 --> 00:42:31,000
shocked weirded out by that story.
Yeah, it's strange. Yeah, that's

613
00:42:31,039 --> 00:42:34,880
weird. Anyway, this brings us
to the end of the episode. Do

614
00:42:34,960 --> 00:42:38,639
you have any spooky recommendations? I
think the only one I have is and

615
00:42:38,760 --> 00:42:44,320
you said it. I think lots
episode that there's a spooky ish episode of

616
00:42:44,320 --> 00:42:49,159
this fool that was funny. And
I just finished this season earlier today.

617
00:42:49,320 --> 00:42:52,039
Oh you did? Yeah? Did
you like it? I did? I

618
00:42:52,119 --> 00:42:54,519
did. It was pretty funny.
I was. I was talking to her

619
00:42:54,559 --> 00:42:58,639
brother about it and he was like, I liked it. I loved it.

620
00:42:58,639 --> 00:43:01,480
But I hate Julio. Oh my
god. Well, I don't think

621
00:43:01,480 --> 00:43:05,960
he's supposed to be likable. I
think he's supposed to be like, like

622
00:43:06,000 --> 00:43:09,840
a nice guy. Yeah, but
he's terrible really yeah, yeah, and

623
00:43:09,880 --> 00:43:14,000
they really and it's like how we
talked about before how we like shows where

624
00:43:14,039 --> 00:43:19,119
everyone's horrible to each other. Yeah, and he's those truly, Yeah,

625
00:43:19,199 --> 00:43:22,000
he really is. And we both
Louise and me both agree that Louise is

626
00:43:22,039 --> 00:43:25,079
our favorite character. Yeah, he's
my favorite. Yeah, not to that

627
00:43:25,440 --> 00:43:32,360
minister Pain. He's also horrible,
Yeah he is. Everyone is equally horrible.

628
00:43:32,480 --> 00:43:35,880
Yeah, they're all. I feel
like Louise is the least horrible.

629
00:43:35,920 --> 00:43:38,400
Actually, actually I do. He's
he may be the convicted felon, but

630
00:43:38,519 --> 00:43:42,519
he is the least horrible. And
that's a real lesson of the show.

631
00:43:42,559 --> 00:43:45,800
I was gonna say that has to
be like the purpose. Yeah, I'm

632
00:43:45,800 --> 00:43:50,039
sure, I'm sure. Yeah.
You know he's called funny though he like

633
00:43:50,039 --> 00:43:52,760
goes on and on, like like
when he was recording the video, Wait

634
00:43:52,760 --> 00:43:54,719
did you finish it? Yes,
I've watched the whole thing, and I

635
00:43:54,800 --> 00:44:00,920
like a day oh where he was
recording the video to propose to Ruby,

636
00:44:00,119 --> 00:44:04,119
and then he's like, oh,
then we might dine in a plane crash

637
00:44:04,159 --> 00:44:07,320
and our our grandkids will be like
and would be like, it's okay,

638
00:44:07,320 --> 00:44:12,400
we're in heaven. It's tied up
here, but we missed you guys.

639
00:44:13,159 --> 00:44:15,679
That's like, why would you go
on that. Yeah, like rambling,

640
00:44:15,679 --> 00:44:21,519
it's hilarious. My favorite, though, is from last season when he dressed

641
00:44:21,599 --> 00:44:23,840
up as that dinosaur in the group
and everyone's like, you need to be

642
00:44:23,880 --> 00:44:30,119
serious, and they realized that the
metaphor of Austin Powers was actually serious.

643
00:44:30,519 --> 00:44:34,239
Yeah, yeah, that was funny. It's a good show. If anyone

644
00:44:34,280 --> 00:44:37,159
has not watched it, like,
what are you doing? Yeah, I've

645
00:44:37,159 --> 00:44:39,719
been working left and right to everybody. Me too, me too. I've

646
00:44:39,719 --> 00:44:44,000
already mentioned it, like you said, yeah, like two episodes ago,

647
00:44:44,280 --> 00:44:47,920
and yeah, I don't think I've
watched anything else. I've been watching Mergers

648
00:44:47,920 --> 00:44:53,840
in the Building and it's spooky in
the sense of crime. Yeah, and

649
00:44:53,840 --> 00:44:58,480
which we also enjoy here. Yeah, I'm enjoyed the wrong word. But

650
00:45:00,119 --> 00:45:04,679
yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, but no, yeah,

651
00:45:04,679 --> 00:45:07,239
I haven't really watched anything spooky or
okay, yeah, well, since you

652
00:45:07,320 --> 00:45:10,679
brought up a crime, there is
a documentary on a loose del Mundo,

653
00:45:10,760 --> 00:45:15,880
which you me and you did an
episode on here, so it's I think,

654
00:45:15,320 --> 00:45:17,440
God, I don't remember if it's
a one full documentary, if it

655
00:45:17,480 --> 00:45:22,159
has episodes. I'm pretty sure it's
like four or six episode thing. I

656
00:45:22,199 --> 00:45:24,039
could be wrong. It's on HBO
it's on Max. My bad, it's

657
00:45:24,079 --> 00:45:28,800
not HBO Max anymore. But I've
watched a couple episodes of it. Horrible,

658
00:45:28,880 --> 00:45:31,599
horrible stuff, but very informative.
Damn, you still need to share

659
00:45:31,599 --> 00:45:34,840
your password with me, by the
way, Oh my god, I thought

660
00:45:34,840 --> 00:45:37,679
I already did that. You did
by lost it somewhere like it's too far

661
00:45:37,719 --> 00:45:39,079
back in the messages to scroll.
Oh my god. Okay, Welson,

662
00:45:39,159 --> 00:45:43,960
it's cool, thank you. Yeah. I think that's the only thing I've

663
00:45:44,000 --> 00:45:46,679
been watching. I have been meaning
to check this podcast out for so long,

664
00:45:46,719 --> 00:45:51,239
and I finally did it, but
I don't. So I listened to

665
00:45:51,400 --> 00:45:55,840
It's Snap Judge, Snap presents Spooked
or something held on It's oh no,

666
00:45:55,880 --> 00:46:00,599
I can't, my phone's over there. This is just my case. Wow,

667
00:46:00,679 --> 00:46:05,559
let me see Spooked by Snap Judgment. I think it's very popular.

668
00:46:05,639 --> 00:46:09,280
People go on and tell their their
own scary stories. There's a host that

669
00:46:09,440 --> 00:46:13,480
is like presenting a story, right, and so I listened to one called

670
00:46:13,559 --> 00:46:16,320
Las Muniekas, because it's a guy, you know, telling his story in

671
00:46:16,360 --> 00:46:21,320
Spanish. However, I do not
like when someone is telling their story in

672
00:46:21,360 --> 00:46:23,920
Spanish, and so they start their
story and then like fades out and then

673
00:46:23,960 --> 00:46:28,039
there's a voice actor that comes in
and says it in English. But then

674
00:46:28,159 --> 00:46:30,800
they get that guy in accent.
Oh, And I'm like, I get

675
00:46:30,840 --> 00:46:35,239
it. I don't know. I
just like I know it's I know why

676
00:46:35,280 --> 00:46:38,360
it's done. I get it.
It's it's an English audience. But if

677
00:46:38,360 --> 00:46:44,360
you're translating already, like we know
the accent is forced, right, we

678
00:46:44,440 --> 00:46:47,199
know it's you can or do you
think it's not? Maybe it's not,

679
00:46:47,480 --> 00:46:50,679
but it feels like it. But
I could be wrong. I could be

680
00:46:50,719 --> 00:46:53,079
wrong. It sounds just to me. When I was reading for a studies

681
00:46:53,119 --> 00:46:57,719
unknown, I was reading that Coca
Cola book, and whenever the author would

682
00:46:57,800 --> 00:47:02,480
read quotes that were said by the
union workers, which of course were either

683
00:47:02,679 --> 00:47:07,719
Colombian or was the other place the
stories took place, they were Central America.

684
00:47:07,320 --> 00:47:13,440
Yeah, he would use an accent, but I knew the author,

685
00:47:13,440 --> 00:47:19,039
the voice author or whatever they're called, voice actor narrator spoke English normally,

686
00:47:19,360 --> 00:47:21,840
and then he would put on this
accent, and I'm like, okay,

687
00:47:21,880 --> 00:47:23,480
you don't have to put on this
accent, Like I don't like this.

688
00:47:23,719 --> 00:47:28,679
Yeah, I found that I very
much prefer Like there's a podcast called True

689
00:47:28,679 --> 00:47:31,320
scary story, which I do story
editing for, and then someone else comes

690
00:47:31,320 --> 00:47:36,400
in and does a sound design that's
by Edwyn on Scary FM. That's and

691
00:47:36,440 --> 00:47:38,480
so it's people telling their own scary
story. And then he has a Spanish

692
00:47:38,559 --> 00:47:45,280
version of it called just Realist or
something like that, and it's just someone

693
00:47:45,360 --> 00:47:46,920
just telling their full story in Spanish. And I'm like, I prefer that

694
00:47:47,000 --> 00:47:51,880
because there's no one coming in and
speaking over them, where you can hear

695
00:47:52,039 --> 00:47:55,800
the Spanish very very very quietly in
the background and someone speaking over them.

696
00:47:57,199 --> 00:48:00,199
I think I just would rather hear
the full story in that person's language if

697
00:48:00,239 --> 00:48:04,679
I can. Yeah, but it's
not. It's not always possible, you

698
00:48:04,719 --> 00:48:08,239
know, no exactly, Like I
get it that podcast Spooked has a like

699
00:48:08,360 --> 00:48:13,360
main mainly English speaking audience, but
because I know Spanish, I can hear

700
00:48:13,400 --> 00:48:16,199
the background, and I think it's
just distracting to me because when that processing

701
00:48:16,320 --> 00:48:21,559
both want yeah, because you know
both languages. Yeah, documentaries do it

702
00:48:21,599 --> 00:48:23,880
all the time too, they do, yeah, and it is still distracting.

703
00:48:23,960 --> 00:48:29,280
I'm just like, so, so, yeah, but the episode is

704
00:48:29,320 --> 00:48:30,639
good. I mean, people,
it's people telling their own scary stories.

705
00:48:30,679 --> 00:48:35,599
It's always good. Another one I've
been meaning to check out is Jim Harold's

706
00:48:35,639 --> 00:48:38,159
Campfire Stories. Oh, I always
hear them talk about it on and that's

707
00:48:38,159 --> 00:48:40,679
why we drink, but I've never
checked it out. Yeah, I think

708
00:48:40,719 --> 00:48:44,880
it's the same vibe. But I
think people call in to tell us stories.

709
00:48:45,000 --> 00:48:47,280
I don't think they're prerecorded and then
like edited into it. I think

710
00:48:47,320 --> 00:48:51,960
people are just calling in telling it. So I want to check that out.

711
00:48:52,000 --> 00:48:53,039
I've been meaning to if I mean, if anyone has like a really

712
00:48:53,079 --> 00:48:55,519
good episode that are like, if
you're gonna listen to it, listen to

713
00:48:55,559 --> 00:48:59,519
this episode, let me know,
let me know. But yeah, I

714
00:48:59,519 --> 00:49:01,920
guess that's to the end of the
episode. Now officially, before we go,

715
00:49:02,079 --> 00:49:07,159
