1
00:00:05,280 --> 00:00:09,039
Hi everyone. This is Christina and
this is MJ. And this is another

2
00:00:09,080 --> 00:00:14,039
episode of Speaky Tells. We're now
a disaster podcast because today we're talking about

3
00:00:14,080 --> 00:00:21,640
earthquake or an earthquake not plural.
Well well, well, actually you're right.

4
00:00:21,800 --> 00:00:25,760
No, I take it back plural. Did you find another earthquake story

5
00:00:25,879 --> 00:00:30,359
or no? But I feel like
the earthquake we're gonna mention is going to

6
00:00:30,399 --> 00:00:37,159
bring up another earthquake in the same
place. Yes, yeah, but yeah,

7
00:00:37,240 --> 00:00:40,759
yeah, we do know, we
do know. I didn't dives to

8
00:00:40,920 --> 00:00:45,560
super deep into that one, just
kind of like, okay, mentioned first,

9
00:00:46,000 --> 00:00:52,079
we do have a listener story.
And also MJ's back. Yay,

10
00:00:52,880 --> 00:00:56,840
I forgot to announce it, although
I access some point it's like too much

11
00:00:56,840 --> 00:01:03,079
to keep announcing MJ's back. No, I'm going to keep announcing it,

12
00:01:03,439 --> 00:01:07,239
all right. Yes, and we
have a listener's story. If you have

13
00:01:07,280 --> 00:01:10,280
a story that you want to send
into the podcast, you can email a

14
00:01:10,319 --> 00:01:14,840
Spooky toos at gmail dot com.
You can record a voice though and email

15
00:01:14,879 --> 00:01:18,120
that over or you know, type
it up, whatever whatever you prefer.

16
00:01:18,319 --> 00:01:22,280
You can leave it on discord.
You can also call the a Spooky hotline.

17
00:01:22,760 --> 00:01:26,359
There is a voicemailer that I still
have to download and send it to

18
00:01:26,359 --> 00:01:30,760
you so we can listen to it. Oh, okay, awesome. We'll

19
00:01:30,799 --> 00:01:34,439
do that next episode though, because
I don't have it ready. It's because

20
00:01:34,439 --> 00:01:37,840
it's in two parts. Because the
voicemail cuts off. I don't know the

21
00:01:38,079 --> 00:01:42,079
exact time, but if you like
talk long enough, it it just cuts

22
00:01:42,120 --> 00:01:45,879
off. Yeah, and that's what
that person did. I think it's like

23
00:01:45,920 --> 00:01:49,640
two ish minutes or something like that. But okay, so I have to

24
00:01:49,920 --> 00:01:52,719
download them and put them together just
so that and then send it to you.

25
00:01:52,799 --> 00:01:55,519
So we'll do that next episode.
But yeah, send us your stories

26
00:01:55,560 --> 00:02:00,239
please. We love reading them,
hearing them discussing them. Yeah, all

27
00:02:00,239 --> 00:02:06,560
of the above exactly. This was
sent to via Instagram. That's another option.

28
00:02:07,359 --> 00:02:09,520
And I think they wanted to stay
anonymous. I feel like that's what

29
00:02:09,560 --> 00:02:14,000
they said, but I don't remember, but I did it anyway just in

30
00:02:14,039 --> 00:02:16,199
case. Okay. Oh also,
actually, okay, well, let me

31
00:02:16,240 --> 00:02:20,120
read this first part and then ask
you if you remember what the story is.

32
00:02:20,240 --> 00:02:24,000
Okay, So they said, Ah, the Aligante story reminded me about

33
00:02:24,039 --> 00:02:28,560
something my mom told me once,
And when I read that, I was

34
00:02:28,599 --> 00:02:34,919
like, what what story was that
I do not remember. Sound familiar to

35
00:02:34,960 --> 00:02:38,680
me at all? What is what
is Alikanta? Have I heard that word?

36
00:02:38,759 --> 00:02:43,520
Like I have heard it? You
have? Yeah? Okay, so

37
00:02:43,840 --> 00:02:46,840
just like a quick google, it's
a city in Spain. But why were

38
00:02:46,919 --> 00:02:52,439
we talking about Spain? We don't
talk about Spain that much. What if

39
00:02:52,479 --> 00:02:55,479
they thought we were someone else and
someone else talked about it and they thought

40
00:02:55,479 --> 00:02:59,400
it was us. It's like,
it's like, I know, but I've

41
00:02:59,439 --> 00:03:02,280
heard of it. Okay, Well, yeah, let us know when we

42
00:03:02,360 --> 00:03:06,599
said that. I don't know,
I don't remember. Oh my god,

43
00:03:07,280 --> 00:03:10,120
I'm so confused. Yeah. Anyway, point is, I don't remember what

44
00:03:10,240 --> 00:03:17,039
that story was. So if you
could remind us with an episode number that

45
00:03:17,759 --> 00:03:22,479
would beat, that would be ideal. That would be the ideal situation.

46
00:03:23,479 --> 00:03:24,759
But yeah, I mean, like
we've said, I'm just dumb. So

47
00:03:24,919 --> 00:03:29,319
I don't know. I don't know
when we talked about it, but it

48
00:03:29,400 --> 00:03:31,080
reminded of this listener about a story. So that's what I'm gonna read.

49
00:03:31,120 --> 00:03:35,319
I'm gonna continue this now. Oh
oh my god, I'm so dumb.

50
00:03:35,439 --> 00:03:38,560
Is that another word for scorpion?
Oh okay, so let me read this

51
00:03:38,599 --> 00:03:44,159
next part. So the flowery bush, which didn't really need to be trimmed.

52
00:03:44,319 --> 00:03:46,039
We had just trimmed it outside the
corridor that led to the patio.

53
00:03:46,479 --> 00:03:51,439
He found an alkane in there.
It might be let me see. Hold

54
00:03:51,479 --> 00:03:55,280
on, okay, that would make
sense. Why I've heard of it before?

55
00:03:55,879 --> 00:04:00,560
Oh I think it's a snake,
and so is it? Why is

56
00:04:00,599 --> 00:04:03,759
the only thing coming up for me? Is Spain amazed? Just look up

57
00:04:03,800 --> 00:04:09,319
Alikanta snake. It's a it's a
Mexican snake. Oh my god, and

58
00:04:09,360 --> 00:04:16,199
it's in it's Wow, I'm embarrassed. Okay, we have talked about snakes.

59
00:04:16,720 --> 00:04:19,480
Yeah, okay, oh my god, all of this makes so much

60
00:04:19,519 --> 00:04:25,800
sense. Now should we start the
story so that it flows and maybe not

61
00:04:25,879 --> 00:04:30,000
confused some of our listeners. Yes, I remember the story now. It

62
00:04:30,160 --> 00:04:36,319
was the shape shifting oh the snake. Yes, it was the episode and

63
00:04:36,360 --> 00:04:44,240
I mentioned the bruqua or like that
shape shifted into a snake and like the

64
00:04:44,240 --> 00:04:49,120
the mom would get sleepy and like
fall asleep. But then the snake's tail

65
00:04:49,319 --> 00:04:56,720
was in the baby's mouth. Yeah
that's what it was. Engross Okay,

66
00:04:56,759 --> 00:05:00,519
So yeah, now I will start
this over because now we now we now

67
00:05:00,560 --> 00:05:04,800
we know, now we have the
contexts the Alegantha story reminded me about something

68
00:05:04,839 --> 00:05:10,040
my mom told me once while we
lived in Adanum in Mexico. She would

69
00:05:10,079 --> 00:05:14,560
feel sleepy when it was about time
to nurse. My grandpa was in town

70
00:05:14,600 --> 00:05:18,560
from Guadalajara, and for some reason
he decided to trim the boogambilia, a

71
00:05:18,560 --> 00:05:23,279
flowery bush which really didn't need to
be trimmed. We had just done it.

72
00:05:23,360 --> 00:05:27,160
On the corridor that led to the
patio, he found an aligante in

73
00:05:27,240 --> 00:05:30,319
there. He grabbed a machetta and
killed it. My mom says creepy stuff

74
00:05:30,360 --> 00:05:33,600
always happened to her in that house. She would hear all of her china,

75
00:05:33,639 --> 00:05:39,279
cabinet plates and stuff break, but
would go into the corridor and everything

76
00:05:39,399 --> 00:05:46,160
was fine. Once she saw a
trail of mist leading outside towards the Bougambilia

77
00:05:46,399 --> 00:05:50,519
de bush. She also said she
once was outside late at night and she

78
00:05:50,519 --> 00:05:55,439
could hear my godparent in the street
whistling while on his way back to his

79
00:05:55,560 --> 00:05:59,160
house. All of a sudden,
everything was silent, no more whistling,

80
00:05:59,240 --> 00:06:03,199
and my mom had urge to look
upwards towards etzero. She saw three floating

81
00:06:03,199 --> 00:06:08,920
balls of fire and ran inside to
my sisters and me. The following day,

82
00:06:09,000 --> 00:06:12,199
she went to my godparents' house and
asked why he had stopped whistling.

83
00:06:12,720 --> 00:06:15,360
He told her he saw three floating
balls of fire and said he knew those

84
00:06:15,360 --> 00:06:19,040
were brucas. I have another witch
story from my hometown, but i'll send

85
00:06:19,040 --> 00:06:21,920
it later. Let me ask my
mom to tell me again so I don't

86
00:06:21,920 --> 00:06:27,560
get the details wrong. And yeah, please send that story in. We

87
00:06:27,639 --> 00:06:31,279
love bluecast stories unless we're already received
in. I just didn't don't know,

88
00:06:31,920 --> 00:06:34,920
but if we haven't, please send
it in. But yeah, that's creepy,

89
00:06:34,959 --> 00:06:40,519
and I'm so glad that we realized
what story. Yeah, reminded her

90
00:06:40,959 --> 00:06:45,639
because yeah, that makes it creepier. I don't like it, especially seeing

91
00:06:45,839 --> 00:06:47,879
a trail of myss also leading towards
it. And that's where like the snake

92
00:06:48,120 --> 00:06:53,759
was looked like a bad juju or
something. Yeah, yeah, I don't

93
00:06:53,800 --> 00:06:56,639
like it, but yeah, that
was our story. If you have any

94
00:06:57,240 --> 00:07:02,199
stories, please send them in before
we get to our topic, because it's

95
00:07:02,399 --> 00:07:09,879
depressing and disaster related. Uh.
I wanted to ask you, MJ,

96
00:07:10,000 --> 00:07:15,040
what your TikTok has been looking like
lately, like you're for you page.

97
00:07:15,319 --> 00:07:17,560
I don't even know how to describe
it. It's not me. That's really

98
00:07:18,160 --> 00:07:25,680
oh wow, yeah, mo,
mine is mostly either Palestine stuff or this

99
00:07:25,920 --> 00:07:28,279
like trend going around. I don't
know if you've come across it, but

100
00:07:28,720 --> 00:07:31,600
it's like a Grinch filter. Oh
I haven't seen that one. Oh you

101
00:07:31,680 --> 00:07:35,279
haven't seen it? Oh my god, I have to send it to you.

102
00:07:36,040 --> 00:07:40,560
The first one I came across was, of course I opened I opened

103
00:07:40,560 --> 00:07:44,920
TikTok on The first thing I see
is the filter I'm talking about. Oh,

104
00:07:45,040 --> 00:07:46,680
oh, I know there is a
theme. Yes, I have a

105
00:07:46,720 --> 00:07:51,040
lot of Palestine stuff, but it
hasn't been as often as like the past,

106
00:07:51,079 --> 00:07:56,360
like last month. But the one
thing that has popped up is book

107
00:07:56,399 --> 00:08:00,639
talk and all the fucking drama going
on in book talk. Oh yeah I've

108
00:08:00,680 --> 00:08:03,759
seen that. Yeah yeah, with
the KKK book that came out and the

109
00:08:03,920 --> 00:08:09,600
MC is a Mexican girl. Yeah, I thought, because I remember on

110
00:08:09,639 --> 00:08:13,720
Twitter I saw there was like some
drama about like self, someone with self

111
00:08:13,720 --> 00:08:18,600
publishing a book that was like,
oh you know what, this was another

112
00:08:18,639 --> 00:08:22,000
problematic book? My bad? What
is going on with authors? There's been

113
00:08:22,000 --> 00:08:26,279
two problematic books I think this month
or was this month? Yeah, okay,

114
00:08:26,279 --> 00:08:31,319
because the first one I saw was
like this white woman was writing a

115
00:08:31,319 --> 00:08:37,759
book about an enslaver and then an
enslaved person falling in love with the enslaver,

116
00:08:37,200 --> 00:08:41,279
and people were like, hey,
this is super problematic as a white

117
00:08:41,279 --> 00:08:43,799
person, you should even be writing
like books like this, Like what's your

118
00:08:43,799 --> 00:08:48,159
problem? And then did they the
author doubled down? Oh my god.

119
00:08:48,320 --> 00:08:52,639
Uh no, there's there's that.
I haven't heard about that one. But

120
00:08:52,679 --> 00:08:56,799
there's two more stories, and one
of them's written by like I think to

121
00:08:56,000 --> 00:09:00,600
latinas. Oh, I have to
look it up. I have to look

122
00:09:00,639 --> 00:09:05,559
it up. But one of them, one of the like love interests,

123
00:09:05,440 --> 00:09:11,200
the male love interest heavily does uh
Latino stereotypes, which is like, he

124
00:09:11,279 --> 00:09:16,799
was a drug dealer, now he's
a gang basis in jail. Is this

125
00:09:16,879 --> 00:09:20,039
not the American dirt lady? Or
is this no? No, no,

126
00:09:20,080 --> 00:09:22,240
this is somebody else. Oh,
I guess this is a common thing.

127
00:09:22,440 --> 00:09:26,200
Oh wait, you said it was
a Mexican author. Yeah, well she's

128
00:09:26,279 --> 00:09:28,519
no, she's a Latina author.
I think she's Brazilian. Well I don't

129
00:09:28,559 --> 00:09:33,120
even know if she considers herself Latina, but she her name is Santana Knox

130
00:09:33,639 --> 00:09:39,159
and the book she published was with
some other girl. So Santana Knox wrote

131
00:09:39,200 --> 00:09:46,480
a book about I'm on TikToker,
I'm looking up Santana Knox myself, Okay

132
00:09:46,679 --> 00:09:50,840
n Ox, last name Santana Knox
controversy. So she wrote a book where

133
00:09:50,919 --> 00:09:54,360
one of the male carriers that the
love interest, I guess I would call

134
00:09:54,440 --> 00:10:00,200
it. He has a lot of
like stereotypes. And I'm talking about like,

135
00:10:00,080 --> 00:10:01,840
like I said, he was a
drug dealer and a gang banger and

136
00:10:03,240 --> 00:10:07,360
just relies heavily on those stereotypes.
And then the other drama is Tilly Cole

137
00:10:07,879 --> 00:10:11,399
and this is Oh, I'm pretty
sure it's a white woman. Sounds like

138
00:10:11,399 --> 00:10:16,519
a white woman. Tilly Cole.
Tilly Cole, Yeah, t I L

139
00:10:16,679 --> 00:10:22,720
Yeah, I co l e from
She's from England. Yeah. So I

140
00:10:22,720 --> 00:10:26,000
don't know which book it is.
I think Darkness Embraced. I could be

141
00:10:26,080 --> 00:10:33,320
wrong the book, but anyways,
it's about the love interest isn't a KKK

142
00:10:33,440 --> 00:10:45,919
guy and Andy the MC is a
Mexican girl and he like this redeeming arc

143
00:10:46,000 --> 00:10:50,480
and they fall in love and and
I haven't read the book. I heard

144
00:10:50,519 --> 00:10:52,519
about that, like they did this
too, and the character was Poc.

145
00:10:52,679 --> 00:10:56,720
But it wasn't until yesterday that I
found out that it was actually specifically a

146
00:10:56,799 --> 00:11:03,679
Latina Mexican girl. Yeah, so
she wrote this book, and it's just

147
00:11:03,919 --> 00:11:09,799
like it's gross, Like she's really
romanticizing the KKK and using a woman of

148
00:11:09,840 --> 00:11:15,279
color in her stories for this redeeming
arcs, because this guy is going to

149
00:11:15,360 --> 00:11:20,960
redeem himself. Like, get the
fuck out. That's that's what's been on

150
00:11:20,000 --> 00:11:24,960
my TikTok oh. When Tanner meets
Adelita Quintana, the daughter of the most

151
00:11:24,960 --> 00:11:30,840
brutal cartel boss in Mexico, the
two are instant enemies but eventually fall in

152
00:11:30,879 --> 00:11:37,039
love, only to be thrust into
the middle of a war between Adelita's family,

153
00:11:37,080 --> 00:11:43,000
the KKK, and the Hades.
Hangman, it is some shit Tanner's

154
00:11:43,039 --> 00:11:46,039
motorcycle gang. Sorry, this man
is a member of the KKK and he

155
00:11:46,080 --> 00:11:50,159
has a motorcycle gang. The fuck
is going on? Yeah? Can you

156
00:11:50,159 --> 00:11:54,720
have both? I don't know,
but it's so problematic. And then also

157
00:11:54,879 --> 00:11:56,799
the other thing, the other drama
that I found out recently, this was

158
00:11:56,840 --> 00:12:03,960
like about like a month ago,
was that there's white women who who author

159
00:12:05,720 --> 00:12:09,600
poc led books, Like you know, the MC is a personal color.

160
00:12:09,039 --> 00:12:16,639
Yeah, they use names that are
like racially ambiguous, so they kind of

161
00:12:16,679 --> 00:12:22,720
present themselves to the author as like
they're trying to pretend to be POC authors,

162
00:12:22,720 --> 00:12:26,399
but they're actually just white women that
are using a pen name. Oh

163
00:12:26,440 --> 00:12:30,519
and they're yeah, but it's like
crazy, so they they write books in

164
00:12:30,960 --> 00:12:35,480
the first person of a person of
color, right, And you know when

165
00:12:35,519 --> 00:12:41,159
when you have people who are leaning
towards reading more books that are generated with

166
00:12:41,279 --> 00:12:46,519
they're looking for like diverse books,
thinking that they're written by diverse authors,

167
00:12:46,679 --> 00:12:50,159
but they're nope, nope, it's
just white women writing. And and oh

168
00:12:50,240 --> 00:12:58,200
and then like they use stereotypes.
Yeah, it's like her her chocolate skin,

169
00:12:58,919 --> 00:13:05,120
some shit like colored skin embrace.
I don't even know, Like I

170
00:13:05,120 --> 00:13:07,240
don't know, some shit like that. But like I was like, you

171
00:13:07,279 --> 00:13:11,759
guys, you have to be really
careful about who you're buying books from and

172
00:13:11,799 --> 00:13:16,399
who you're We had a spicy soul. Yeah, and then like oh and

173
00:13:16,440 --> 00:13:18,440
then what was it? What was
it? It was Wednesday Books. I

174
00:13:18,440 --> 00:13:26,200
think it's called in their parent company. One of their employees uh tweeted like

175
00:13:26,320 --> 00:13:33,639
some racist shit, like racist shit, islamophobic shit, and the company has

176
00:13:33,679 --> 00:13:39,039
not done anything like they have like
people will forget It's how like TikTok book

177
00:13:39,039 --> 00:13:43,320
TikTok, or you are like embedded
into book talk. I am not.

178
00:13:43,559 --> 00:13:48,320
I just started seeing stuff about the
second book drama that you just mentioned,

179
00:13:48,320 --> 00:13:54,679
but not anything else. Listen,
book talk is so much drama. I

180
00:13:54,039 --> 00:13:58,120
don't really engage with it as much
except for like when I need a book.

181
00:13:58,120 --> 00:14:01,639
But that's really right, because like
I still struggle to read through our

182
00:14:01,720 --> 00:14:05,720
reading list because I'm so busy.
But like in the rare moments that I

183
00:14:05,759 --> 00:14:09,440
do finish a book really early,
I'm like, let's see what book talk

184
00:14:09,639 --> 00:14:13,759
recommends, and it's nothing but fucking
drama all the time. Don't get me

185
00:14:13,799 --> 00:14:16,759
wrong, She's most signed. I
fucking love it. I love it.

186
00:14:16,840 --> 00:14:22,320
Yeah, but I'm like, damn
drama, monny man. My my TikTok

187
00:14:22,399 --> 00:14:28,200
is all either stuff about supporting Pala
sign or that Grinch filter that I just

188
00:14:28,240 --> 00:14:35,559
sent you or people I mentioned it
last episode, But there's like this what

189
00:14:35,639 --> 00:14:39,440
is her? I don't know her
name, but she does this all the

190
00:14:39,480 --> 00:14:41,120
time. It was just like,
oh, did you look at the message

191
00:14:41,240 --> 00:14:45,759
the filter? Isn't it so good? You need to find the one with

192
00:14:45,960 --> 00:14:50,519
there's a baby and a mom,
but also the one I just send you

193
00:14:50,679 --> 00:14:54,759
is one of my favorite ones.
But yeah, that Grinch filter has been

194
00:14:56,000 --> 00:15:01,600
uh make me laugh so much,
A little too much that. And then

195
00:15:01,879 --> 00:15:07,799
there's the one I mentioned last episode
where actually it wasn't a blanket. I

196
00:15:07,799 --> 00:15:11,000
think it was like a shirt that
she's wearing and it has between made on

197
00:15:11,120 --> 00:15:15,279
it, and she's like, oh, I love her sol Yes, so

198
00:15:15,639 --> 00:15:22,480
that's her name, Mamita. Oh
my god. That's been stuck in my

199
00:15:22,519 --> 00:15:26,480
head. And then on top of
I'm just getting I've just been getting people

200
00:15:26,519 --> 00:15:31,039
taking that sound and like redoing it. But also there's a video I don't

201
00:15:31,080 --> 00:15:39,039
know who it was, singing like
on this December twelve, and she's like,

202
00:15:41,720 --> 00:15:43,840
it's so funny. I have to
send you that video too, But

203
00:15:43,919 --> 00:15:46,320
yeah, that's all that's all I've
been seeing. You have to Yeah,

204
00:15:46,360 --> 00:15:50,600
I love soul. She's so funny. It's so good. I adore her.

205
00:15:50,679 --> 00:15:54,519
She's so funny. And then she
posted I think it was today or

206
00:15:54,600 --> 00:16:00,360
yesterday a TikTok and her doing a
British accent and it's so good. Really,

207
00:16:00,679 --> 00:16:02,720
I have to look that one.
I got to find it. But

208
00:16:02,759 --> 00:16:04,559
she's so funny. I love her, love it, love it. But

209
00:16:04,600 --> 00:16:10,720
that's been stuck in my head the
Wila Lupana song and then the sound from

210
00:16:10,720 --> 00:16:14,600
The Grinch. So good anyway,
Yeah, I just wanted to talk about

211
00:16:14,600 --> 00:16:18,840
something lighter before we talk about something
depressing. Mm hmmm. I will put

212
00:16:18,879 --> 00:16:22,759
time stamps so for the people that
complain that we talk too much. So,

213
00:16:22,879 --> 00:16:30,600
yeah, today we're talking about the
devastating twenty seventeen Mexico earthquake, but

214
00:16:30,720 --> 00:16:36,799
we can't talk about that earthquake without
mentioning the nineteen eighty five earthquake and then

215
00:16:37,240 --> 00:16:42,159
the phenomena of like Nino's phantasmas ghost
children that came up during both earthquakes,

216
00:16:42,200 --> 00:16:48,720
because that was strange that like it
happened both to was weird. Yeah,

217
00:16:48,600 --> 00:16:52,240
So first I guess I'll just talk
about the earthquake itself, because your notes

218
00:16:52,279 --> 00:16:56,320
are more about the story. Yeah, Sophia free that right, or Fida,

219
00:16:56,399 --> 00:17:00,639
Sophia, I mean her wrong,
Frida? Yeah, okay. So

220
00:17:00,879 --> 00:17:07,000
on September nineteenth, twenty seventeen,
at one fourteen pm local time, there

221
00:17:07,079 --> 00:17:11,519
was a seven point one magnitude earthquake
that hit Mexico and it shook for about

222
00:17:11,519 --> 00:17:18,160
twenty seconds, but the initial guesses
of how long it lasted was a minute,

223
00:17:18,240 --> 00:17:21,720
which is way too long. Yeah, it's really long, but twenty

224
00:17:21,720 --> 00:17:25,680
seconds is a lot a long time. Yeah, it is, especially for

225
00:17:25,759 --> 00:17:30,000
that magnitude and in case anyone needs
like a refresher or a reminder, the

226
00:17:30,640 --> 00:17:37,319
magnitude is the size of the earthquake. There's about ten to fifteen earthquakes with

227
00:17:37,480 --> 00:17:41,440
that like from seven to seven point
nine magnitude that happened every year all over

228
00:17:41,480 --> 00:17:47,559
the world, like worldwide. And
then any earthquake stronger than seven point nine,

229
00:17:47,880 --> 00:17:52,599
like so eight between eight and ten, those only happened one to three

230
00:17:52,640 --> 00:17:57,000
times per year in the entire world. And then there's like I think like

231
00:17:57,039 --> 00:18:00,759
one and two magnitude earthquakes that happen
and like all day, you know,

232
00:18:00,839 --> 00:18:03,680
can I feel them? Yeah,
you can't feel them? And like what's

233
00:18:03,720 --> 00:18:07,759
it called the Iceland? I think? Or Greenland? No, I think

234
00:18:07,759 --> 00:18:12,000
it's Iceland. Is like went through
like like two thousand or something earthquakes in

235
00:18:12,039 --> 00:18:15,359
one day, no way, and
like they're yeah, and then they had

236
00:18:15,359 --> 00:18:19,119
to be evacuated because they're volcanoes about
to blow. That I did see because

237
00:18:19,240 --> 00:18:26,599
last episode I also mentioned that I
enjoy following the Mount Saint Helen's Twitter page.

238
00:18:26,359 --> 00:18:32,319
They're so unhinged h and they quote
tweeted about that volcano. So that's

239
00:18:32,319 --> 00:18:34,240
why I know about it. Yeah. Yeah, but they have like I

240
00:18:34,279 --> 00:18:38,640
think anywhere between one thousand and two
thousand earthquakes, like strong ones in one

241
00:18:38,680 --> 00:18:42,359
day. It was like damn strong
ones, A few strong ones. Yeah.

242
00:18:42,839 --> 00:18:47,279
Yeah, okay again with TikTok.
If you guys go and look up

243
00:18:47,359 --> 00:18:49,000
the I believe it's an Iceland.
I want to say it's an Iceland.

244
00:18:49,319 --> 00:18:53,960
Could be wrong somewhere, don't quote
and don't quote me, but it's somewhere

245
00:18:53,960 --> 00:18:59,759
over there in that area, like
the Nordic area, that area somewhere.

246
00:19:00,359 --> 00:19:03,880
Yeah, the videos are terrifying.
I'd be like, dude, I'd be

247
00:19:03,920 --> 00:19:11,119
shitting myself so hard, like you
got to be rescued and cleaned both.

248
00:19:11,720 --> 00:19:15,519
Wow. No, I didn't know
that. So Mexico is one of the

249
00:19:15,559 --> 00:19:21,839
world's most seismically active regions, which
means that one of the places earthquakes happened

250
00:19:21,839 --> 00:19:27,079
the most in like simple terms,
because it sits on top of more than

251
00:19:27,160 --> 00:19:32,519
one, like several tectonic plates that
on top of them being tectonic plates,

252
00:19:32,519 --> 00:19:37,160
they also intersect with each other.
Yeah, in Mexico alone, there's like

253
00:19:37,200 --> 00:19:41,920
forty earthquakes a day, but the
majority are not noticeable. For this earthquake,

254
00:19:41,960 --> 00:19:45,319
though, the one that happened on
September nineteenth, twenty seventeen, the

255
00:19:45,519 --> 00:19:51,319
epicenter, so where the earthquake was
the strongest, where it originated or whatever,

256
00:19:51,839 --> 00:19:56,119
that was located thirty four miles south
of Pueblan, and it caused damage

257
00:19:56,160 --> 00:20:02,519
in Puebla, Morellos and Mexico City, but the most damage happened in Mexico

258
00:20:02,599 --> 00:20:07,039
City. And there's several reasons why
that was, which we'll get into.

259
00:20:07,480 --> 00:20:11,599
When that's like you can blame on
people and the other it's just a location,

260
00:20:11,880 --> 00:20:17,039
like Mexico City was built on top
of a dry lake bed and that

261
00:20:17,200 --> 00:20:21,039
like it's just too soft, apparently, And that's why earthquakes are more destructive

262
00:20:21,640 --> 00:20:26,160
on top of like the errors of
like the government and people trying to cut

263
00:20:26,200 --> 00:20:32,160
corners when rebuilding from yeah, and
building in general, and jet yeah,

264
00:20:32,160 --> 00:20:37,559
building in general. So what's even
worse about this earthquake is that it took

265
00:20:37,599 --> 00:20:44,920
place on the anniversary of the destructive
nineteen eighty five earthquake, And every year

266
00:20:45,039 --> 00:20:49,359
on the anniversary of this earthquake,
there's a National Earthquake drill that happens,

267
00:20:48,799 --> 00:20:52,680
and then I think in the past, like, oh god, it was

268
00:20:52,680 --> 00:20:57,200
happening twenty seventeen, there was an
earthquake around the same time the following year

269
00:20:57,279 --> 00:21:02,640
or the same day again, and
then like yeah, there's always like been

270
00:21:02,680 --> 00:21:07,640
like small earthquakes happening around September.
Yeah, I know, two months before

271
00:21:07,720 --> 00:21:12,039
this one there was another kind of
big earthquake in Chiapas, but still not

272
00:21:12,680 --> 00:21:15,839
was it two months. It might
have been less. Actually it might have

273
00:21:15,880 --> 00:21:18,519
been like two weeks, which is
worse. But yeah, well, yeah,

274
00:21:18,559 --> 00:21:23,039
there's just quite a bit and it's
almost like on the anniversary of it,

275
00:21:23,039 --> 00:21:27,359
there's an earthquake. Yeah, and
this one, the one on September

276
00:21:27,440 --> 00:21:33,680
nineteen, twenty seventeen, took place
two hours after that national drill that they

277
00:21:33,720 --> 00:21:38,160
do every year of the anniversary.
So the epicenter of this earthquake was one

278
00:21:38,200 --> 00:21:42,440
hundred No, I'm not gonna say
kilometers because I don't know what. Well's

279
00:21:42,440 --> 00:21:47,839
seventy five mile as from Mexico City, but that's where the most damage happened,

280
00:21:48,799 --> 00:21:53,039
but other places, like morel were
closer. Mexico has this thing called

281
00:21:53,279 --> 00:22:00,279
SaaS mex Earthquake Warning System. It's
supposed to alert people that the earthquakes happening,

282
00:22:00,400 --> 00:22:03,759
to get them to what they learned
on the drills, like you know,

283
00:22:03,920 --> 00:22:06,680
get under a table, or oh, oh, the same thing happens

284
00:22:06,680 --> 00:22:08,160
here. Now. The other day
there was an earthquake, not the other

285
00:22:08,240 --> 00:22:11,920
day, I think was either last
month. I'm pretty sure it was last

286
00:22:11,920 --> 00:22:15,000
month in September that there was an
earthquake and Sacramento I heard it was a

287
00:22:15,000 --> 00:22:18,079
pretty big one, but you know, our our infrastructure is pretty good.

288
00:22:18,119 --> 00:22:21,599
And then there was one in the
Bay Area and our the phones went off.

289
00:22:21,599 --> 00:22:25,839
But the fucking phone alarm that the
the emergency alarm on the phone is

290
00:22:25,839 --> 00:22:30,240
a lot more scarier than the earthquake. I like die, Like my soul

291
00:22:30,319 --> 00:22:36,519
left my body. I was like, phone trying to kill me. But

292
00:22:36,599 --> 00:22:40,680
then they're like, hide under tables. Oh is that what it sounds like?

293
00:22:40,759 --> 00:22:42,519
I've never heard it. It sounds
like a what is it called?

294
00:22:42,519 --> 00:22:47,440
Like an amber alert? It's exactly
almost exactly sounds like an amber alert.

295
00:22:47,440 --> 00:22:49,279
But it scares the shit out of
you, right, And it's like the

296
00:22:49,319 --> 00:22:55,160
buildings here are pretty safe, right
because they're they're they're meant to withstand earthquakes.

297
00:22:55,440 --> 00:22:59,200
But it's a lot more. The
sound is a lot more terrifying than

298
00:22:59,200 --> 00:23:03,440
the earthquake. Oh my god,
I didn't even feel the earthquake, but

299
00:23:03,799 --> 00:23:07,000
that shit scared the crap out of
me. There was an earthquake though in

300
00:23:07,039 --> 00:23:11,720
September. I love when people barely
moved to California and then there's like tiny

301
00:23:11,759 --> 00:23:14,640
ones that nobody even talks about it, and then you just see post them.

302
00:23:15,400 --> 00:23:17,920
Could you feel the earthquake? Yeah, it's like, dude, that

303
00:23:18,039 --> 00:23:23,759
was under five Plubi one come down. Yeah, like you're woken up from

304
00:23:23,839 --> 00:23:27,200
bed because the bed is shaking and
your stuff were falling over. Then it's

305
00:23:27,200 --> 00:23:30,480
not a big and no, like
the worst thing it did was like the

306
00:23:30,519 --> 00:23:33,839
one that we had in September was
like it vibrated the windows a little bit.

307
00:23:33,920 --> 00:23:37,440
But I'm like, dude, somebody
blasting music does that too? Does

308
00:23:37,480 --> 00:23:41,799
that? Yeah? And then like
the head of my shower shook and like

309
00:23:41,920 --> 00:23:45,799
some water like fell out, and
I was like, Okay, that's nice.

310
00:23:48,640 --> 00:23:53,480
Yeah. The SASMEX, the warning
system is supposed to was supposed to

311
00:23:53,519 --> 00:24:00,000
give Mexico City twenty seconds advanced in
warning, which is not a lot,

312
00:24:00,160 --> 00:24:04,599
but like I think in terms of
like maybe finding somewhere to stay safe.

313
00:24:06,160 --> 00:24:10,680
Any second advantage is better than nothing. Yeah, so that's what it's supposed

314
00:24:10,720 --> 00:24:15,599
to do. Give at least twenty
seconds advance of twenty seconds morning, I

315
00:24:15,640 --> 00:24:18,720
advanced in Wow, why can't I
phrase this sentence whatever? Yes, you

316
00:24:18,759 --> 00:24:22,079
know what I'm saying. Yeah,
twenty second morning. Yeah. Yeah,

317
00:24:22,359 --> 00:24:26,359
apparently that's not what happened. It
was only like two seconds or during the

318
00:24:26,400 --> 00:24:32,480
earthquake itself, like as it was
already happening. I don't think people understand

319
00:24:32,519 --> 00:24:37,799
how fast earthquakes happen, Like even
having like a twenty second window is a

320
00:24:37,880 --> 00:24:41,400
law, but I doubt they could
reach that goal because earthquakes happened very very

321
00:24:41,440 --> 00:24:45,279
fast. I see, So I
wouldn't even have mattered. I feel like

322
00:24:45,680 --> 00:24:52,359
in some cases, I guess it
depends because I feel like depending on the

323
00:24:52,440 --> 00:24:56,480
surface level or like where exactly the
earthquake happened, like you could feel it

324
00:24:56,519 --> 00:25:00,839
more, feel it less, like
how deep in crust. I don't know

325
00:25:00,880 --> 00:25:04,319
how that works. So maybe you
have a better chance, but if not,

326
00:25:04,519 --> 00:25:10,480
then it's like you don't have time. I see. Also, some

327
00:25:10,599 --> 00:25:18,079
residents mistook that alert the actual alert
for the drill that had been happening the

328
00:25:18,200 --> 00:25:22,440
anniversary drill, although places like wahaka
A, Capuco, Chiban, Singo,

329
00:25:22,680 --> 00:25:29,279
Puebla, some of them had like
forty eight seconds warning, which seems preferable.

330
00:25:29,519 --> 00:25:33,839
Oh that's good. Yeah. None. Yeah. In Puebla, the

331
00:25:34,200 --> 00:25:41,519
earthquake collapsed a church that was on
the slopes of our favorite volcano. I

332
00:25:41,680 --> 00:25:47,119
just love saying that name. I
still struggle with it. But when this

333
00:25:47,279 --> 00:25:51,440
church collapsed, it killed fifteen people. And then there was a second church

334
00:25:51,519 --> 00:25:55,960
that collapsed not far from there,
and this one killed eleven people, including

335
00:25:56,039 --> 00:26:00,480
a baby. That was Puebla,
Mexico City. However, four buildings collapsed.

336
00:26:00,759 --> 00:26:06,240
Oh geez, I remember that.
Yeah, a lot and people were

337
00:26:06,319 --> 00:26:11,640
trapped inside. There was large large
like dust, I don't know, dust,

338
00:26:11,799 --> 00:26:18,720
uh, clouds, yes, and
also fires that started happening because of

339
00:26:18,799 --> 00:26:23,599
all the destruction and dust and all
that, and several buildings caught on fire

340
00:26:23,799 --> 00:26:29,240
like Lasa. Also, did you
did you ever watch House of Flowers?

341
00:26:29,839 --> 00:26:33,920
No? Oh my god, I'll
tell you guys, I don't really watch

342
00:26:34,039 --> 00:26:40,119
TV. Okay, well what I
do. It's like my comfort ones,

343
00:26:40,160 --> 00:26:42,160
which is like the Twilight Zone and
stuff like that. Next to the Twilight

344
00:26:42,240 --> 00:26:48,039
Zone and Xbile, the other one
X files well, I did watch House

345
00:26:48,119 --> 00:26:52,920
of Flowers and I accidentally started talking
like what are the characters? No,

346
00:26:53,039 --> 00:26:57,480
I feel that because I pick up
accents. Yeah, because Carmen, me

347
00:26:57,599 --> 00:27:02,680
and my mom, we kept talking
like her because we thought she had this

348
00:27:02,759 --> 00:27:07,279
funny accent she put on. Paulina
de la Mora is the character's name,

349
00:27:07,400 --> 00:27:11,039
and she has this accent that's just
so fun, and so I actually started

350
00:27:11,079 --> 00:27:15,279
talking like her. But that that
actress was hurt during this earthquake. Oh,

351
00:27:17,200 --> 00:27:19,319
just to like give people an idea, because I'm sure there's people out

352
00:27:19,359 --> 00:27:22,920
there that watched it, but you
should watch it. It's it's pretty funny.

353
00:27:22,960 --> 00:27:25,400
Well, is it on vix because
that's where I watch a lot of

354
00:27:25,440 --> 00:27:27,440
my Spanish stuff. No, no, this is on Netflix. Oh okay.

355
00:27:29,279 --> 00:27:36,759
The most damage happened on Alvaro Obregon
Avenue and then Amsterdam Avenue as well

356
00:27:36,799 --> 00:27:41,759
as the Philippine Embassy was pretty damaged. Also. Obviously, people like lost

357
00:27:41,839 --> 00:27:45,759
power, like I think it said
four million people wow lost power, and

358
00:27:47,000 --> 00:27:53,240
Guerrero, Mexico State wuhakaala and then
Mexico City itself because that's where the most

359
00:27:53,319 --> 00:27:59,960
damage happened. But like during these
kind of like disasters on Mexico comes together

360
00:28:00,160 --> 00:28:06,279
pretty fast to rescue people, and
there was also worldwide help in like rescuing

361
00:28:07,160 --> 00:28:11,440
Carter and I have an episode on
his studias Unknown about the beautiful, brave

362
00:28:11,960 --> 00:28:17,240
rescue dog Frida, because we have
an episode about like historic dogs, and

363
00:28:17,640 --> 00:28:22,680
Frida played a big role in finding
people during the earthquake to the destruction of

364
00:28:22,720 --> 00:28:27,160
the earthquake, and she's she's a
cute dog. A rest in peace passed.

365
00:28:27,880 --> 00:28:30,720
Oh yeah, like the several years
ago. Now I want to say

366
00:28:30,759 --> 00:28:37,079
they had a whole military military funeral
for her. I'm pretty sure. Yeah,

367
00:28:37,319 --> 00:28:41,680
yeah, precious, precious dog.
Okay, So in Morellos, seventy

368
00:28:41,720 --> 00:28:47,680
four people died. In Mexico City
two hundred and twenty people died a lot

369
00:28:48,319 --> 00:28:52,200
Guerrero six people, and then one
percent in Wahaka, and then in Mexico

370
00:28:52,319 --> 00:28:56,920
City, I think, what what
are the buildings that affected people the most

371
00:28:56,119 --> 00:29:00,880
or like was the most like impact
there? You could say, is that

372
00:29:02,359 --> 00:29:07,839
the school what is the name of
the school? Was it Monterrey Institute of

373
00:29:07,920 --> 00:29:10,799
Technology and Higher Education? Was that
the one? Or was that no?

374
00:29:10,880 --> 00:29:17,799
No, no, Enrica Henriquet,
Yeah, it's Enrique Salmon's school collapsed and

375
00:29:18,319 --> 00:29:21,759
there was twenty six students and for
instrum. Actually you're going to talk a

376
00:29:21,799 --> 00:29:23,400
little bit more about that, so
I won't get into that. But that

377
00:29:23,519 --> 00:29:26,559
was it. So that school collapsed, and then there was a high school

378
00:29:26,599 --> 00:29:33,440
that also collapsed. Wow. And
yeah, like I think six thousand people

379
00:29:33,480 --> 00:29:38,720
were injured, almost you know,
almost three hundred were killed. So then

380
00:29:40,000 --> 00:29:42,640
there was an investigation that the next
month, in October twenty seventeen, that

381
00:29:42,839 --> 00:29:45,519
like they wanted to figure out,
like, why was there more damage here?

382
00:29:45,920 --> 00:29:51,039
More damage than there should have been? Right? And so apparently this

383
00:29:51,359 --> 00:29:57,000
investigation revealed that since twenty twelve,
there have been over six thousand complaints about

384
00:29:57,119 --> 00:30:04,200
construction violations in Mexico City. Wow. Yeah, and with no records if

385
00:30:04,319 --> 00:30:08,440
anyone followed up on those complaints.
And many of the buildings mentioned in the

386
00:30:08,559 --> 00:30:15,000
complaints were the ones that collapsed.
Wow. Local activists started protesting because they,

387
00:30:15,599 --> 00:30:21,039
you know, were claiming that the
construction system was totally corrupt. Developers

388
00:30:21,839 --> 00:30:30,440
often skipped regulations, authorities ignored complaints. One one building owner, actually the

389
00:30:30,640 --> 00:30:37,839
owner of I think the school,
the elementary school, Monica Garcia Villegas,

390
00:30:37,519 --> 00:30:44,519
was found guilty. She was prosecuted
for culpable homicide and she was found guilty

391
00:30:44,559 --> 00:30:51,000
in twenty twenty because she ignored safety
regulations which caused the building to collapse.

392
00:30:51,960 --> 00:30:56,880
And I believe she might have been
the only one that has been prosecuted for

393
00:30:57,160 --> 00:31:02,480
this. Oh my god, the
only one. But yeah, yeah,

394
00:31:02,680 --> 00:31:06,440
yeah, you would think there'd be
more people. Oh Cecila Suarez, that's

395
00:31:06,480 --> 00:31:10,960
the actress from the show that I
mentioned, the House of Flowers that was

396
00:31:11,039 --> 00:31:17,119
injured. They were filming the episode
the show when the earthquake happened, and

397
00:31:17,200 --> 00:31:19,559
was she was injured during the earthquake. But yeah, I mean, like

398
00:31:21,759 --> 00:31:26,000
more more people were hurt than should
have they should have been because of the

399
00:31:26,680 --> 00:31:33,279
like skipping cutting corners to save money, ignoring people's complaints, rebuilding oh my

400
00:31:33,400 --> 00:31:41,160
god, buildings with like the same
material that had been stop it. Yeah

401
00:31:41,680 --> 00:31:45,319
yeah, like the damaged buildings.
Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah. They

402
00:31:45,400 --> 00:31:52,480
began building with the same materials almost
a lot of places, which made everything

403
00:31:52,680 --> 00:31:56,799
obviously worse. Yes, And it's
also like brings up a topic that I

404
00:31:56,880 --> 00:32:00,240
wrote my notes, but I remember
a while back, was the discussion between

405
00:32:00,440 --> 00:32:06,799
like British people who are like,
oh my god, American houses are so

406
00:32:06,960 --> 00:32:08,799
flimsy and made out of wood.
And I'm like, well, I live

407
00:32:08,839 --> 00:32:14,599
in California. If we have an
earthquake, a brick building would crush us.

408
00:32:15,079 --> 00:32:20,720
Wood is yeah, you hide under
table. Yeah. And then Mexico

409
00:32:20,960 --> 00:32:23,680
that was I think probably another problem
because a lot of things are still made

410
00:32:23,720 --> 00:32:27,839
with like clay and stone over there, No, Yeah, a lot of

411
00:32:27,880 --> 00:32:30,799
comer a lot of yeah. Concrete, yeah, which from what I remember,

412
00:32:30,880 --> 00:32:36,119
the school that collapsed or one of
them, had a lot of these

413
00:32:36,200 --> 00:32:42,039
like huge concrete slabs, which is
one of the leading causes of the deaths

414
00:32:42,200 --> 00:32:45,640
of so many and the reason it
collapsed. It's just not earthquake proof and

415
00:32:45,880 --> 00:32:49,880
not even like wood buildings are.
But like, if you think about it,

416
00:32:50,160 --> 00:32:53,079
concrete slab falling on top of you
versus like a wood wouldn't beam,

417
00:32:53,160 --> 00:32:59,160
you'd probably survive, have a higher
chance of surviving a wooden thing falling on

418
00:32:59,240 --> 00:33:01,119
you than you would conte. But
it always like blows my mind that people

419
00:33:01,119 --> 00:33:05,799
are like, why don't you make
materials that last fur It's like because we

420
00:33:05,960 --> 00:33:09,079
live on a fault line, A
bunch of fault lines, A bunch of

421
00:33:09,160 --> 00:33:15,079
fault lines, Like have you seen
the movies what does it called? Yeah?

422
00:33:15,519 --> 00:33:19,680
And I've seen San Andrea's fault.
It is It's huge. It like

423
00:33:19,880 --> 00:33:25,640
just it feels like it goes on
forever. Mm hmm. Welcome to our

never existed Frida Sophia, And as you

441
00:34:53,119 --> 00:34:58,480
said, on the nineteenth of September
twenty seventeen, there was a massive earthquake

442
00:34:59,000 --> 00:35:01,519
and it was a devastating. But
as soon as like the people felt the

443
00:35:01,599 --> 00:35:06,760
earthquake and they saw like what happened
to the school, people just were like

444
00:35:07,360 --> 00:35:12,320
running to help the people trapped inside. You know. It led to a

445
00:35:12,440 --> 00:35:16,400
huge talk as Christina went over over
the infrastructure, but people really came together

446
00:35:16,599 --> 00:35:20,599
at the time, like the community, and as soon as this happened,

447
00:35:20,599 --> 00:35:25,679
they started trying to remove debris and
all that stuff. So within the twenty

448
00:35:25,679 --> 00:35:29,639
four hours of the earthquake, reports
of a girl who had been trapped inside

449
00:35:29,679 --> 00:35:32,400
the robble began to emerge. It
is not known who started the rumors,

450
00:35:32,679 --> 00:35:37,159
but Televisa was the first to air
the story. The reporter for te Levisa

451
00:35:37,320 --> 00:35:43,960
Danielle diurb diuribe, I don't know
these, it's d I t h u

452
00:35:44,119 --> 00:35:47,400
r I b E. I think
it's the Thuribi said that the information had

453
00:35:47,440 --> 00:35:52,800
come from the rescue teams. Danielle
was the only reporter at the time who

454
00:35:52,880 --> 00:35:55,519
was given access to the scene,
and according to her, she was told

455
00:35:55,559 --> 00:36:00,199
by the rescue team that with a
thermal scanner they had found a twelve year

456
00:36:00,199 --> 00:36:05,360
old girl trap under the rubble.
The rescue team had made contact with her

457
00:36:05,480 --> 00:36:08,920
and her name was Frida Sophia,
and that the rescuers was holding the last

458
00:36:09,039 --> 00:36:12,840
name. Why would they do that? Yeah? Red flag number one.

459
00:36:13,159 --> 00:36:17,760
Yeah. Danielle later began to interview
rescuers, and one in particular, name

460
00:36:19,079 --> 00:36:22,239
Atermio, said in the interview that
he had heard the voice of the girl.

461
00:36:22,360 --> 00:36:24,800
He went on to say, yes, some very faint voices of the

462
00:36:24,840 --> 00:36:29,400
girl, apparently called Sophie. He
went on to say that he asked her

463
00:36:29,480 --> 00:36:34,039
her name and she replied Sophie,
Sophie. The Associated press had a similar

464
00:36:34,199 --> 00:36:37,880
story given to them by another rescuer, and according to Danielle, another rescuer

465
00:36:37,960 --> 00:36:44,039
named Raoul Rodrigo Ernandez Ayella had said
that the girl is alive, and she

466
00:36:44,280 --> 00:36:47,320
has vital signs. I don't know
how they knew she had vital signs,

467
00:36:47,400 --> 00:36:52,840
considering right. Televisa went on to
report that five children had been found alive

468
00:36:53,119 --> 00:36:57,920
in the basement of the school,
and according to that same report, the

469
00:36:58,039 --> 00:37:01,239
day after the earthquake on Wednesday,
rescue workers had seen the girl trapped under

470
00:37:01,280 --> 00:37:05,360
the rubble. She was asked to
move her hand if she could hear them,

471
00:37:05,440 --> 00:37:07,280
and she did, and a rescue
doug was sent in to confirm she

472
00:37:07,440 --> 00:37:10,960
was alive. From here, the
story grew and it was a trending hashtag

473
00:37:12,039 --> 00:37:15,480
on Twitter, hashtag freda Sofia.
Yeah, people like, I guess because

474
00:37:15,519 --> 00:37:17,519
it was like a story of hope, like, oh, let's save this

475
00:37:17,679 --> 00:37:24,559
girl. People really like threw themselves
into yeah save that Sofia. Yeah.

476
00:37:24,880 --> 00:37:28,760
So it was a yeah, it
was a huge thing. Yes, And

477
00:37:29,280 --> 00:37:31,599
I don't think I was. I
was on Twitter, I like, I

478
00:37:31,639 --> 00:37:35,639
had an account at the time,
but I wasn't on Twitter, you know

479
00:37:35,679 --> 00:37:37,880
what I mean when it happened.
Yeah, I just remember all the news

480
00:37:38,119 --> 00:37:43,599
outlets were posting about it same same. So by Thursday, many of the

481
00:37:43,679 --> 00:37:45,960
rescuers were under the assumption that the
girl was alive, under the rubble.

482
00:37:46,320 --> 00:37:51,440
There was also footage captured by a
news station where a rescue worker was asking

483
00:37:51,480 --> 00:37:53,960
another to dig and being told what
area to look for the girl. Because

484
00:37:54,039 --> 00:38:00,119
journalists were not allowed on site,
they got their information from rescue workers and

485
00:38:00,199 --> 00:38:04,960
not from government officials. Soon after, government officials began to tell the same

486
00:38:05,039 --> 00:38:07,599
story that Frida Sofia was under the
rubble and there was a rescue mission to

487
00:38:07,679 --> 00:38:14,119
find her. That same morning,
Navy officer, I think it says Admiral

488
00:38:14,239 --> 00:38:22,079
adm oh Like a rank eightm Yeah, Josse Luis Vergara had told Televisa that

489
00:38:22,159 --> 00:38:24,760
there was in fact a girl trapped
inside, but couldn't find her location and

490
00:38:24,880 --> 00:38:30,000
didn't know how to get to her. The Navy soon then recounted their statem

491
00:38:30,039 --> 00:38:34,000
and said that eleven children had been
rescued from the rubble. Nineteen bodies of

492
00:38:34,079 --> 00:38:37,719
both children and adults were recovered,
but no other child was believed to be

493
00:38:37,840 --> 00:38:44,199
trapped. They did find the body
of another adult on Sunday. Navy Assistant

494
00:38:44,280 --> 00:38:49,280
Secretary anhel Enrique sar Ramienthal said,
we want to emphasize that we have no

495
00:38:49,480 --> 00:38:52,079
knowledge about the report that emerged with
the name of the girl. We never

496
00:38:52,199 --> 00:38:57,119
had any knowledge about the report and
we do not believe. We are sure

497
00:38:57,920 --> 00:39:01,280
it was not a reality. I'm
like one of your officials in the opposite

498
00:39:01,360 --> 00:39:07,440
but okay. Saramento said that a
thermal camera was lowered into the rouble,

499
00:39:07,519 --> 00:39:10,920
but it only detected blood and the
only person that was missing was a fifty

500
00:39:12,000 --> 00:39:15,760
eight year old woman who was an
employee at the school. Her body was

501
00:39:15,840 --> 00:39:20,880
removed that Thursday after the earthquake.
It was believed that it was this woman

502
00:39:21,000 --> 00:39:25,280
whose hands the rescuers saw At the
time. Workers were using the help of

503
00:39:25,360 --> 00:39:30,079
a rescue dog named Frida, which
many think is where some of the confusion

504
00:39:30,559 --> 00:39:36,480
came from. The Navy later apologized
for the report that was given by Jossel

505
00:39:36,559 --> 00:39:40,119
Luis Vergara. They said that they
were relying on information provided to them by

506
00:39:40,159 --> 00:39:45,480
the rescuers. This mismanagement of reporting
has had many people angry, and rightfully

507
00:39:45,559 --> 00:39:51,159
so. There has also been several
conspiracy theories that have emerged from this,

508
00:39:51,519 --> 00:39:54,920
and one of them is that because
there were elections that were about to happen,

509
00:39:55,320 --> 00:40:00,320
they used this ploy by the government
and the current president parties to garner

510
00:40:00,559 --> 00:40:06,559
sympathy and also to show like a
force of leadership. I am unsure how

511
00:40:06,880 --> 00:40:08,440
this came to be, but I
also think it has a lot to do

512
00:40:08,559 --> 00:40:15,280
with people witnessing something horrific and together
having this trauma responsive confusion, Yeah for

513
00:40:15,400 --> 00:40:21,079
sure, plus like wanting something hopeful
to latch onto. Yeah, and you

514
00:40:21,159 --> 00:40:24,960
know, after especially after saying like
digging up kids, like that's yeah,

515
00:40:25,119 --> 00:40:29,599
fucked, that's fine. Yeah,
it's just like I mentioned this last episode,

516
00:40:29,679 --> 00:40:34,840
but I just can't help but to
keep being reminded of the terrible videos

517
00:40:35,000 --> 00:40:38,840
coming out of Gaza and like the
people and children and I mean everyone being

518
00:40:38,880 --> 00:40:42,440
pulled out of the rubble. But
yeah, like, yeah, of course

519
00:40:42,599 --> 00:40:49,239
they want to find someone alive down
there, so like wish we'll thinking hope

520
00:40:49,280 --> 00:40:53,239
to latch onto. I'm not surprised
that it happened during this earthquake and nineteen

521
00:40:53,280 --> 00:40:58,000
eighty five also, yes, okay, so that being said, I could

522
00:40:58,119 --> 00:41:01,039
have sworn I seen a face poking
out from the hole in one of the

523
00:41:01,119 --> 00:41:05,519
rubble of a little girl during a
news segment. Yeah, and it makes

524
00:41:05,519 --> 00:41:08,920
you wonder that they doctor that image. Yeah, But like the weird thing

525
00:41:09,039 --> 00:41:14,320
is it was like it wasn't even
reported on by the news media. It

526
00:41:14,440 --> 00:41:16,199
was like just fans being like,
oh my god, rewind that I saw

527
00:41:16,320 --> 00:41:21,239
something? Oh no, you're right, I remember this. Yeah. Yeah.

528
00:41:21,320 --> 00:41:22,800
So it wasn't even the news mea
being like, there's the girl.

529
00:41:22,960 --> 00:41:25,519
It was like people who were watching
the news and be like, what the

530
00:41:25,599 --> 00:41:30,039
hell is that in the background.
Yeah, Like they were just talking about

531
00:41:30,079 --> 00:41:35,039
it and in the background the video
was playing and like people pausing it could

532
00:41:35,079 --> 00:41:37,719
see like, oh my god,
what is that? Right, but like

533
00:41:37,840 --> 00:41:40,239
the anchors themselves, they didn't notice
it. Yeah, yeah, so I

534
00:41:40,360 --> 00:41:45,119
remember that, And I did get
a screen recording and now it's very pixelated.

535
00:41:45,280 --> 00:41:50,239
I couldn't find the original video or
the original original news reporting of this,

536
00:41:51,280 --> 00:41:55,159
but I got a screen grab of
a recording and it's terrible. But

537
00:41:55,760 --> 00:42:00,280
anyways, this is also where things
get a little weird. Story of Frida

538
00:42:00,360 --> 00:42:06,039
Sophia also brought me to a story
from nineteen eighty five, and there was

539
00:42:06,079 --> 00:42:09,679
an earthquake in Mexico City that year. As Christina went over and they reported

540
00:42:09,800 --> 00:42:14,639
on a boy who was missing,
trapped under rubble, and they nicknamed him

541
00:42:14,719 --> 00:42:20,119
Monchito. Hundreds of people mobilized and
began searching through the rubble for Monchito.

542
00:42:20,239 --> 00:42:23,360
Even after all the rubble was cleared, they never found him, leading people

543
00:42:23,440 --> 00:42:29,000
to believe he never existed. There
were also many theories, and rescuers at

544
00:42:29,039 --> 00:42:32,760
the time also recounted that they had
contact with him. His parents, however,

545
00:42:32,920 --> 00:42:37,119
had disappeared from the public eye and
have not been seen since. So

546
00:42:37,760 --> 00:42:45,880
yeah, suspicious, weird it.
Yeah, did you come across the idea

547
00:42:45,519 --> 00:42:49,320
and I never saw it? Or
I haven't seen this about Monchito, but

548
00:42:49,400 --> 00:42:52,480
I have seen it about Frida Sofia. But that Frida Sofia was a ghost

549
00:42:53,239 --> 00:42:59,679
I have heard of that I have
and I don't like. The one thing

550
00:42:59,719 --> 00:43:02,519
that I'm thinking of is like they
thought that the the in the area that

551
00:43:02,599 --> 00:43:07,840
they were looking for Frida Sophia they
were also they were they found the late

552
00:43:07,039 --> 00:43:10,400
the body of the fifty eight year
old woman. So I'm thinking it's like,

553
00:43:10,440 --> 00:43:14,239
you know how a lot of people
say, like you revert to your

554
00:43:14,360 --> 00:43:19,199
happiest when you die, or I'm
like, what if that was like her

555
00:43:20,119 --> 00:43:23,639
ghost just reverting back to being a
little girl and it was her? Yeah?

556
00:43:23,960 --> 00:43:30,559
Maybe, But let me tell you
about a TikTok user. Her name

557
00:43:30,679 --> 00:43:34,559
is Lay. Oh my god,
I lay there, I lay there,

558
00:43:36,039 --> 00:43:43,000
and she was a lot younger when
the earthquake happened, and so she posted

559
00:43:43,960 --> 00:43:47,039
a video. I don't know when
she posted it actually, but she insists

560
00:43:47,320 --> 00:43:52,360
in her video that Philadosophia was actually
a ghost and that that ghost of that

561
00:43:52,480 --> 00:43:58,119
little girl that is Philosophia, she
had been seeing that ghost since twenty twelve.

562
00:43:59,159 --> 00:44:04,840
Oh yes, she's like the news
they were wrong in the sense that

563
00:44:04,960 --> 00:44:07,599
they thought it was someone alive.
But Fida Sophia does exist. She's just

564
00:44:07,840 --> 00:44:14,280
a ghost. She said the ticktoker
that she lived in a building in front

565
00:44:14,320 --> 00:44:22,840
of the schoolba's men and that there
was at least like two or three occasions

566
00:44:23,280 --> 00:44:30,880
where she herself saw Sophia the ghost
as well as a family member of hers.

567
00:44:30,119 --> 00:44:35,760
Maybe that's what was captured in the
news segment, right, yeah,

568
00:44:36,119 --> 00:44:38,320
yeah, that or like the way
you said that it was the woman who

569
00:44:38,400 --> 00:44:45,320
had died and then just she reverted
back into like being a child a child.

570
00:44:45,440 --> 00:44:49,719
Yeah, but she's uh the TikToker
she said that or TikTok. I

571
00:44:49,719 --> 00:44:52,679
don't know if she's like an actual
TikToker or she like just posted this one

572
00:44:52,760 --> 00:44:54,960
video and then didn't post anything else. I haven't looked at her account because

573
00:44:55,000 --> 00:44:59,320
I just came across like an article
about it. So she said that she

574
00:44:59,480 --> 00:45:01,960
used to walk her dog super late, like at one or two am.

575
00:45:02,159 --> 00:45:07,559
Oh my god, Like why you're
just begging to see something in those hours,

576
00:45:08,119 --> 00:45:14,079
I know, especially like in Mexico, it's like there's so many creepy

577
00:45:14,159 --> 00:45:17,280
shit there, like you do not
go out unless you absolutely have to.

578
00:45:19,360 --> 00:45:22,719
Yeah, during one of those walks, she came across a girl as like

579
00:45:22,760 --> 00:45:29,239
a translucent girl in white, and
that was Philosophia, And I guess she

580
00:45:29,360 --> 00:45:32,159
had also seen her in her like
apartment building, like in the hallway as

581
00:45:32,239 --> 00:45:37,320
well in between like the I guess
she's had a long hallway and then there

582
00:45:37,400 --> 00:45:40,800
was like a fountain at the end
of the hallway and they've seen her,

583
00:45:40,880 --> 00:45:46,079
and like her family has seen Philosophia
there too. She she came out and

584
00:45:46,239 --> 00:45:51,800
was like saying that it's actually it's
real, the ghost of a girl.

585
00:45:51,880 --> 00:45:53,760
But she she was real, So
I don't know, I don't know,

586
00:45:54,199 --> 00:46:00,400
that's creepy. But also did you
know that do you remember the legend of

587
00:46:00,480 --> 00:46:04,760
La Planchada. Yes, Okay,
so there's a version of the legend where

588
00:46:04,880 --> 00:46:09,039
Laplanchada the nurse and I guess just
a cook reminder for anyone that doesn't remember.

589
00:46:09,119 --> 00:46:15,840
But the legend of Laplanchada is that
in hospital quarrees and squares, this

590
00:46:15,079 --> 00:46:22,239
nurse like loved this doctor and then
he got married to someone else and she

591
00:46:22,400 --> 00:46:28,119
was like jealous, and then she
began like mistreating her patients and then like

592
00:46:28,239 --> 00:46:32,440
killed herself in guilt and then now
comes back. And there's some versions of

593
00:46:32,519 --> 00:46:36,559
the legend where she's like evil,
but there's other versions where she comes back

594
00:46:36,599 --> 00:46:38,679
and just helps people in the hospital. Yeah, but there's a version of

595
00:46:38,719 --> 00:46:44,159
the legend that says that she died
during the nineteen eighty five earthquake. She

596
00:46:44,320 --> 00:46:46,719
was a nurse in the hospital when
the hospital collapsed, and the hospital did

597
00:46:46,840 --> 00:46:51,800
collapse, and people you know,
did die in the hospital, including nurses

598
00:46:51,840 --> 00:46:55,079
and patients and doctors. So one
version of the legend is that she was

599
00:46:55,159 --> 00:46:59,360
one of those nurses and now she
comes back still like helping people in the

600
00:46:59,400 --> 00:47:05,639
afterlife, which I did not know
that version at all. It's all connected,

601
00:47:06,559 --> 00:47:10,480
yeah, yeah, so a couple
of couple of ghosts attached to these

602
00:47:10,599 --> 00:47:17,559
earthquakes. And there's also an urban
legend that Mexico. I don't remember if

603
00:47:17,559 --> 00:47:22,920
it's all of Mexico, Mexico or
just Mexico City is cursed and that there's

604
00:47:22,960 --> 00:47:25,840
an earthquake, like a devastating earthquake
every thirty years. Have you heard that

605
00:47:25,960 --> 00:47:30,360
one? No? I have not. Oh yeah, yeah, So apparently

606
00:47:31,519 --> 00:47:38,639
in the years nineteen eleven, nineteen
thirty two, nineteen fifty seven, nineteen

607
00:47:38,679 --> 00:47:44,599
eighty five, and then twenty seventeen, we're all devastating earthquakes in stud that

608
00:47:44,719 --> 00:47:49,840
Mexico were like more than seven point
zero in magnitude and like a lot of

609
00:47:49,920 --> 00:47:53,559
deaths. Wow, I had no
idea. Yeah, yeah, so if

610
00:47:54,400 --> 00:48:00,719
that it's if that's true, then
the next one is would be I can't

611
00:48:00,719 --> 00:48:07,760
do mathul. I'm with my calculator. I feel that thirty twenty forty seven,

612
00:48:08,280 --> 00:48:13,519
twenty forty seven. Wow. Yeah. I hope they're prepared by them,

613
00:48:13,960 --> 00:48:17,599
hopefully, hopefully. I'm curious to
see if there will be another ghost

614
00:48:17,719 --> 00:48:22,880
child. That is so weird though
that it happened twice, right, and

615
00:48:22,000 --> 00:48:28,639
it made news twice because there was
newspapers of the little boy who was missing

616
00:48:28,679 --> 00:48:35,079
in the eighty in eighty five.
Yeah, certainly strange, but yeah,

617
00:48:35,119 --> 00:48:37,280
I guess that brings us to the
end of this episode. Do you have

618
00:48:37,360 --> 00:48:42,840
anything else to add about the earthquake. No, I think that's all okay.

619
00:48:43,760 --> 00:48:45,000
Oh, actually I do have one
more thing to add about the earthquake.

620
00:48:45,199 --> 00:48:49,719
After it happened. So it happened
in September. And I was in

621
00:48:49,840 --> 00:48:53,719
Guada Dajaa in October twenty seventeen and
there was a game. I don't remember

622
00:48:53,760 --> 00:49:00,599
who they were playing or what if. It was like a friendly game,

623
00:49:00,679 --> 00:49:06,199
but it was like Mexico versus another
country, like it was like a national

624
00:49:06,280 --> 00:49:13,920
game. There was a moment of
silence during during the game for the earthquake

625
00:49:14,360 --> 00:49:19,280
and all like all the victims of
the earthquake, and uh, it was

626
00:49:19,360 --> 00:49:21,800
like so emotional. I was crying
like a little bait, like a little

627
00:49:21,840 --> 00:49:29,239
baby during the moment of silence.
My my grandpa rest in peace, was

628
00:49:29,280 --> 00:49:34,559
still alive and so and he like
he you know, loves soccer and we

629
00:49:34,679 --> 00:49:37,199
were like all watching the game and
he was there with He normally is always

630
00:49:37,280 --> 00:49:43,559
raining like an Atlas jersey, but
he brought out his Mexico jersey for that

631
00:49:44,079 --> 00:49:46,679
and he stood up during the moment
of silence and he's like because he always

632
00:49:46,719 --> 00:49:51,000
coughs instead of crying. Instead of
crying, he starts coughing, so he

633
00:49:51,159 --> 00:49:53,039
was like, and every time I
hear him do that, then I start

634
00:49:53,119 --> 00:49:58,480
crying and so it was Yeah,
it was emotional. But but yeah,

635
00:49:58,519 --> 00:50:04,719
that's all I was gonna add about
the earthquake. But yeah, before we

636
00:50:04,920 --> 00:50:08,039
go, first I want to say
sorry to all the patrons for being behind

637
00:50:08,119 --> 00:50:13,360
on so much. Oh yes,
I'm sorry. We are sorry. We

638
00:50:13,519 --> 00:50:19,280
will get back to it soon.
Not this week, but m maybe next

639
00:50:19,320 --> 00:50:23,840
week. Yeah, maybe maybe we'll
see. I will make stickers though this

640
00:50:23,960 --> 00:50:27,400
week, I think, and send
them out. But yeah, we're like

641
00:50:27,519 --> 00:50:31,320
behind on episodes. I did record. I'm behind on everything life life is

642
00:50:31,440 --> 00:50:36,880
like. I recorded one with Carmen, a Patroon episode okay in October,

643
00:50:37,159 --> 00:50:39,719
so there was a monthly episode.
And yeah, well, before we go,

644
00:50:40,239 --> 00:50:47,159
do you have any recommendations spooky or
anything. I'm saying anything now since

645
00:50:47,920 --> 00:50:52,159
you don't watch anything or you haven't
watched anything, I don't want. Yeah.

646
00:50:52,199 --> 00:50:55,159
The only thing I've watched is the
Twilight Zone, but the old one,

647
00:50:55,280 --> 00:51:00,440
like the original one, and that's
if you guys want to rewatch that.

648
00:51:00,880 --> 00:51:07,159
They have a pretty lengthy episode like
list, there's a lot of episodes.

649
00:51:07,519 --> 00:51:12,440
Even though there was I think only
like five seasons each each season had

650
00:51:12,559 --> 00:51:17,360
like a lot, so it's gonna
take you a minute while through. Yeah,

651
00:51:17,599 --> 00:51:23,400
Like I mean, I started rewatching
it like maybe six months ago and

652
00:51:24,159 --> 00:51:28,599
I'm still I'm barely like an episode
two. But I don't really watch TV,

653
00:51:28,800 --> 00:51:31,320
so they're sad. Yeah, but
it takes. It takes a while.

654
00:51:31,440 --> 00:51:35,840
Like we will watch an episode,
maybe two episodes, just three episodes

655
00:51:36,039 --> 00:51:38,039
a week if that, if we
get a chance, but yeah, I

656
00:51:38,079 --> 00:51:44,800
don't really, but for those like
binging, there's several days worth of episodes,

657
00:51:45,960 --> 00:51:50,440
maybe like a month even probably like
a month. Yeah. Wow,

658
00:51:51,079 --> 00:51:57,800
Well I have been watching the Twin
Flames documentary on Netflix, and that is

659
00:51:57,840 --> 00:52:00,079
wild. I did. I haven't
even heard this and tell you guys,

660
00:52:00,280 --> 00:52:06,480
you haven't looked you Oh wow,
I don't watch anything. Yeah, Twin

661
00:52:06,559 --> 00:52:09,199
Flames is like this cult tea.
Well, no, it is a cult.

662
00:52:09,320 --> 00:52:15,239
The Twin Flames University itself is a
cult. And then the idea of

663
00:52:15,519 --> 00:52:22,000
a twin Flame and looking or like
new Age believes like I was telling you

664
00:52:22,079 --> 00:52:27,920
earlier, like what we were messaging, but that new Age cult to being

665
00:52:27,960 --> 00:52:31,159
in a cult pipeline. Oh my
god, it's so real. And that's

666
00:52:31,239 --> 00:52:36,199
what happened to a lot of these
people. They were like googling, how

667
00:52:36,280 --> 00:52:40,719
I felt the most intense connection ever? What is this? And then they

668
00:52:40,719 --> 00:52:45,480
would google that and then like twin
flames Flame University would pop up and it

669
00:52:45,599 --> 00:52:50,639
was run by uh, this guy. Oh my god, is it still

670
00:52:50,719 --> 00:52:54,599
run Actually a might still be going
on, but Sheila and I cannot remember

671
00:52:54,639 --> 00:52:59,800
the guy's name. They have been
together, I don't know how long.

672
00:53:00,079 --> 00:53:04,320
Too long apparently, yeah, too
long. Apparently they've been running this like

673
00:53:04,639 --> 00:53:08,920
university to teach others to find their
twin flame because they have found each other.

674
00:53:09,079 --> 00:53:15,119
So this means that they're now the
sole authority figure into telling people how

675
00:53:15,199 --> 00:53:19,679
to do this, and and they
like talk about God and like all these

676
00:53:19,719 --> 00:53:24,239
godly things, and then like he
people would sign up and like they pay

677
00:53:24,360 --> 00:53:30,079
like this insane amount of money for
these classes, different black classes, to

678
00:53:30,320 --> 00:53:34,760
like get to know themselves so they
could be like a better partner and then

679
00:53:34,800 --> 00:53:37,360
eventually find their twin flame. That's
called therapy. But then he started,

680
00:53:37,920 --> 00:53:42,159
yeah, yeah, right, do
that instead. But then he started telling

681
00:53:42,159 --> 00:53:44,480
people like, oh, this is
your twin flame, Like I know it,

682
00:53:44,599 --> 00:53:46,039
this is your twin flame. You
have to be with this person and

683
00:53:46,119 --> 00:53:49,960
basically forcing these two people together.
There was like one girl who was like

684
00:53:50,440 --> 00:53:53,599
eighteen, and he told her that
her twin flame was like this guy that

685
00:53:53,760 --> 00:53:59,840
was like fifteen years older than her
and who was a felon, and then

686
00:53:59,880 --> 00:54:04,480
he was like abusive. Yeah,
just things like that. It's a wild

687
00:54:04,840 --> 00:54:07,519
documentary. I listened to a podcast
about it a while ago, which is

688
00:54:07,559 --> 00:54:12,440
also really good, and it's almost
the same information. Honestly, I think

689
00:54:12,519 --> 00:54:15,119
this documentary might include like a few
newer things. There was this other girl

690
00:54:15,159 --> 00:54:20,039
who like thought her twin flame was
her ex and he the guy told her

691
00:54:20,159 --> 00:54:22,480
like, yeah, that's your twin
flame. You have to do whatever you

692
00:54:22,599 --> 00:54:25,360
can to like be with this person. And then this ended up resulted in

693
00:54:25,480 --> 00:54:31,679
her getting like a restraining order placed
on her m m and then she was

694
00:54:31,800 --> 00:54:36,880
arrested for violating that restraining order.
Oh my god. You know, following

695
00:54:36,960 --> 00:54:43,920
this twin flame mindset that is bonkers. Like yeah, like if you have

696
00:54:44,280 --> 00:54:46,079
if someone has to tell you who
your twin flame is, yor not your

697
00:54:46,119 --> 00:54:50,239
twin flame, if someone has to
tell you what a twin flame is.

698
00:54:50,320 --> 00:54:54,599
The idea of twin flame just isn't
real to me, oh man, But

699
00:54:54,679 --> 00:54:57,960
yeah, you should watch it.
You should watch it. It's good.

700
00:54:58,360 --> 00:55:02,159
That's crazy. Yeah. Yeah,
do you have a book club update?

701
00:55:02,719 --> 00:55:08,320
I should be finished reading probably by
this weekend or next for sure. Whoo

702
00:55:08,840 --> 00:55:12,639
okay, okay, we're getting close. I'm sorry, guys, I just

703
00:55:12,800 --> 00:55:16,760
been I've been busy. I got
injured. My dad had surgery. No,

704
00:55:17,000 --> 00:55:22,639
don't even worry. It's called the
book lover Busy people. Life is

705
00:55:22,760 --> 00:55:25,880
like it's in the name, you
know, Like I think that I think

706
00:55:25,920 --> 00:55:30,719
what was it like? Uh?
The past two weekends was the first two

707
00:55:30,760 --> 00:55:34,679
weekends and like I want to say, like four months that I actually got

708
00:55:34,760 --> 00:55:37,199
to sleep in. Man. Yeah, it's like, oh my god,

709
00:55:37,840 --> 00:55:44,039
is this is this is what it
feels like to get sleep Oh wow,

710
00:55:44,760 --> 00:55:47,320
it's rough out here, it is. But yeah, I guess this actually

711
00:55:47,400 --> 00:55:52,679
brings us to the end of the
episode. Yes, so stay spooky and
