Speaker 1: Running a strange program, y'all.
Speaker 2: This is the other side of Midnight Weekend Review with
Speaker 2: Walter Sterling.
Speaker 3: The collectivist form of New York City has replaced frigid
Speaker 3: Ruggedy in Dvigilalism has great synat for a sag.
Speaker 4: Anyone can make it in New York.
Speaker 1: And they can also make it anywhere.
Speaker 3: It doesn't matter. You voted for this, and now you're
Speaker 3: gonna get it good.
Speaker 5: Have you seen the Grand Canyon? Have you seen it
Speaker 5: up close? Have you gone there? We were just listening
Speaker 5: to some information about the great mysteries, the great mysteries
Speaker 5: of the Grand Canyon. How there are sealed iron doors
Speaker 5: to caves, to passageways that are in the Grand Canyon
Speaker 5: that we're not allowed to go to and haven't been
Speaker 5: allowed to go to over one hundred years. And the
Speaker 5: hoppy Indians who used to occupy the Grand Canyon would
Speaker 5: not tell us what was in those caves. They would
Speaker 5: not reveal to us for decades what they saw down there,
Speaker 5: and then it got sealed up. But I urge you
Speaker 5: take a look at that river, look at the river
Speaker 5: that goes through the Grand Canyon. And when the tour
Speaker 5: guys say that river cut these rocks and made the
Speaker 5: Grand Canyon. Does that make any sense to you? It
Speaker 5: looks like a stream. It looks that you can walk
Speaker 5: across it. A river that you can walk across. Did
Speaker 5: not cut the Grand Canyon. Something else cut it. Do
Speaker 5: you know what it really looks like. It looks like
Speaker 5: it was mind. The Grand Canyon looks like it was mind. Now,
Speaker 5: who would have mined it? The Sumarians? The Sumerians minded?
Speaker 5: And what for gold? It used to be a gold mine.
Speaker 5: That river didn't do that. It was a little stream,
Speaker 5: little stream. This is one of the great mysteries of
Speaker 5: our time. Exactly what formed the Grand Canyon? And what
Speaker 5: is hidden behind the iron doors, the iron gates to
Speaker 5: the passageways under the Grand Canyon? And why are these
Speaker 5: huge sections of the Grand Canyon, like about a third
Speaker 5: of it? You and I can't visit. We're not allowed
Speaker 5: to visit. One of the mysteries on the other side
Speaker 5: of midnight. Walter Sterling lets you and I talk at
Speaker 5: any time. Eight hundred eight four eight nine two two
Speaker 5: two eight hundred eight four eight nine two two two.
Speaker 5: Now listen, I got to tell you about the Worldwide
Speaker 5: News Network. It's a new best in class global top
Speaker 5: of the hour news service built by Lee Harris, also
Speaker 5: our musical director. One of the few these days this
Speaker 5: worldwise news network, So one of the few these days.
Speaker 5: Man twenty This is live twenty four to seven by
Speaker 5: a full staff of producers, anchors, correspondents. Do you realize
Speaker 5: now there's been a major shift in a major significant
Speaker 5: summer snack food. This is a scandal, This is a mystery.
Speaker 5: You go when you get one of those drumstick ice
Speaker 5: cream cones, it's called a drumstick, and that was one
Speaker 5: of those ice creams, those novelty creams, which is what
Speaker 5: they call it in the industry. It's one of those
Speaker 5: novelty ice creams that your mother didn't want you to get.
Speaker 5: You wanted to get the drumstick ice cream cone. She
Speaker 5: didn't want you to get it. And the answer was
Speaker 5: always vague about why she didn't want you to get it.
Speaker 5: She thought it was fine for you to get a popsicle,
Speaker 5: a creamsicle, but not the drumstick. Well, it turns out
Speaker 5: your mother was probably right. Science shows, and remember we
Speaker 5: always go with science, we don't go with rumor or
Speaker 5: wet markets. Who knew what that was? The drumstick Novelty
Speaker 5: ice cream has zero milk in it has zero cream
Speaker 5: in it. It is a pure corn syrupy chemical confection,
Speaker 5: absolutely nothing. And the reason for that besides it's cheaper
Speaker 5: than actually using cream and actually needing to refrigerate in
Speaker 5: a certain way, the reason for that is it won't melt.
Speaker 5: Now it gets even more exciting. Unlike other products that
Speaker 5: are designed in the ice cream cabinet to not melt well,
Speaker 5: this one doesn't even melt under light and heat. So
Speaker 5: the drumstick ice cream cone doesn't melt under any conditions
Speaker 5: and therefore probably not ideal. Probably not an ideal food.
Speaker 5: It's disappointing because it always looked good. But when each
Speaker 5: layer of something tastes the same, the chocolate, the nuts,
Speaker 5: the cream, the cone, When all all of that tastes
Speaker 5: the same, probably a good clue that you don't need
Speaker 5: to eat it. Walter Sterling The Other side of Midnight
Speaker 5: on the Red Apple Audio Networks.
Speaker 2: This is the other side of Midnight. Weekend Review with
Speaker 2: Walter Sterling. This is the other side of Midnight with
Speaker 2: Walter Sterling. Weekend Review.
Speaker 1: If you want to go to wiggl or fight an
Speaker 1: alligator in a swamp. Then the other side of midnight.
Speaker 6: What do you want? It's Florida Story.
Speaker 1: I'm James Parker and this is Florida Story. Oh thank you,
Speaker 1: thank you so much. You are so time for our
Speaker 1: first Florida story. We're going to Miami and in this
Speaker 1: one is a story of a guy who, like many people,
Speaker 1: lost his job when the pandemic hit. And so now
Speaker 1: he's an unemployed mechanic in his mid thirties and he
Speaker 1: applies for some assistance from one of the stimulus programs,
Speaker 1: gets a se eight hundred dollars check. Once he gets
Speaker 1: through the pandemic, he applies for the forgiveness paperwork. He
Speaker 1: actually gets a letter back saying that hey, don't worry
Speaker 1: about it, that money he's been forgiven. Going on about
Speaker 1: your business. Fast forward to the current day, Flora man
Speaker 1: win's a lottery, not the big lottery, but this ticket
Speaker 1: is a scratch off worth ten thousand dollars. So he
Speaker 1: stands it with his phone confirms, Hey, I really did win.
Speaker 1: He goes to pick up his check at the nearest
Speaker 1: lottery office and they say, oh, I'm sorry, sir, that
Speaker 1: check is being withheld because you owe the government money.
Speaker 1: That's what's happened to several Floridians.
Speaker 7: Chung is not a loon.
Speaker 8: TV stations all over the state of highlighted the same
Speaker 8: story with the same scenario. Lotto winners are flagged at
Speaker 8: the lotto office and then cannot get a hold of
Speaker 8: the Department of Economic Opportunities. Something that was so exciting
Speaker 8: became an absolute namare. According to the Florida Lottery, from
Speaker 8: January twenty twenty two to January twenty twenty three, close
Speaker 8: to ten thousand a lot of winners statewide received a
Speaker 8: letter like this claiming they owe a majority of them
Speaker 8: owing to the Department of Economic Opportunity.
Speaker 1: Oh man, what a bummer it has to be for
Speaker 1: that guy. I mean, it's hard enough that he was unemployed,
Speaker 1: he went through the pandemic, and then he got help,
Speaker 1: and I he finds out he owes some money, and
Speaker 1: then he finally wins gets a break. He wins some
Speaker 1: money on a lottery ticket, and he doesn't even get
Speaker 1: all of that money, and then he's going to be
Speaker 1: delayed finally getting the air corrected. That dude's just flat
Speaker 1: out of luck. I mean, he did win ten grand
Speaker 1: from the lottery, but other than that, he's he's got
Speaker 1: a pretty unlucky go of it. For our next Florida story,
Speaker 1: we're going to Vero Beach, and in Vero Beach, we
Speaker 1: have a guy who he has a little bit of
Speaker 1: a checkered pass. Then that will come into play in
Speaker 1: just a second. But he's not doing a good job
Speaker 1: keeping up his house. He's not in like a super
Speaker 1: nice neighborhood. In fact, he's in a pretty crummy neighborhood.
Speaker 1: And even in the crummy surroundings of this economically depressed neighborhood,
Speaker 1: his house is just got trash everywhere. It sort of
Speaker 1: looks like Sandford Sons almost, And some of the neighbors
Speaker 1: have called code enforcement on him, and he actually got
Speaker 1: a citation saying, listen, if you don't get this all
Speaker 1: picked up, you're gonna get fined. And you know you're
Speaker 1: gonna to pay hundreds of dollars for this. And so,
Speaker 1: in his attempt to be less of a mess of
Speaker 1: a human being, he piles a bunch of the trash
Speaker 1: in his backyard and starts a little fire. And the
Speaker 1: fact that he's making it on floors stores kind of
Speaker 1: let you know it's not going to remain a little
Speaker 1: fire is it WPBF.
Speaker 9: And the stuff then bounced from the fire pit to
Speaker 9: a boat that has a boat, and the boat transferred
Speaker 9: to the house, and then the house just got flee engulfed.
Speaker 6: Deputies tried to get Guy away from his home. When
Speaker 6: they said, he did the complete opposite. He locked himself
Speaker 6: in side for about ten minutes. Investigators soon realized who
Speaker 6: this man was. Guy was wanted for violating his probations
Speaker 6: on felony charges, including burglary.
Speaker 9: I'd recognize him from previous encounters, so I knew he
Speaker 9: had warrants, and I knew we had other deputies looking
Speaker 9: out for him.
Speaker 6: Deputies tell us Guy then tried to run out of
Speaker 6: his home and away from deputies before he was caught.
Speaker 9: He was on cooperative. He was making excuses. He gave
Speaker 9: the other deputy a different name when they responded there.
Speaker 9: I think he says his name was Dylan, which is
Speaker 9: not his name, and then he said he just couldn't
Speaker 9: breathe that's why he tried to run away from the home,
Speaker 9: which was not the case.
Speaker 1: All right. One thing I really love about that story
Speaker 1: is you gotta imagine being him in that ten minute
Speaker 1: span from when his life's already been a wreck that
Speaker 1: he's scared to see cops. But his house is such
Speaker 1: a mess that he has to, you know, burn piles
Speaker 1: of crap, and he even screws that up. He burns
Speaker 1: his boat. I don't even have a boat, and this
Speaker 1: idiot burns his burns his house down. But you know
Speaker 1: things are so bad he's running away and the cops
Speaker 1: are showing up. And that ten minutes where he has
Speaker 1: to go back into the house and lock himself inside.
Speaker 1: What goes through your head?
Speaker 5: Like?
Speaker 1: What are my options? How long can I stay in
Speaker 1: a burning house? Well? Ten minute seems to be about
Speaker 1: the max. Uh, how am I gonna get out of this?
Speaker 1: You can't? So what does he do for ten minutes?
Speaker 1: Just enjoy his last ten minutes of smoky freedom? I guess,
Speaker 1: hold my beer far Next Florida story, we are going
Speaker 1: to Daytona where you have a guy who you know
Speaker 1: you would think by listening to Flora stories, this happens
Speaker 1: every single day in Florida, And I promise it's rare.
Speaker 1: I know. I said that about thirty episodes ago, and
Speaker 1: there's been just a huge rash of alligator attacks, but
Speaker 1: as much as we like to make jokes about, you know,
Speaker 1: Florida gators. It's still, mathematically speaking, fairly rare. However, it's
Speaker 1: getting harder and harder to say that there's a man
Speaker 1: over here in the Daytona area who here's a noise
Speaker 1: on his porch. He thinks it's the neighborhood kids knocking
Speaker 1: on the door of Fast and now you can, you know, Johnny,
Speaker 1: come out and play. So he thinks of some neighborhood kids.
Speaker 1: It turns out it's a gator. And I don't mean
Speaker 1: like one of these cute little baby gators. It's like
Speaker 1: three feet long. This thing is seven and a half
Speaker 1: feet long. So just imagine Lebron James laying down plus
Speaker 1: another six or so inches right, and it jumps up
Speaker 1: grabs him by the thigh. Okay, so now we have
Speaker 1: a situation where I don't know what your porch is like,
Speaker 1: but there is there a man eating dinosaur on it
Speaker 1: that immediately latches onto your thigh. So this guy goes
Speaker 1: into you get this Florida adrenaline rush, and so in
Speaker 1: the Florida man in Florida mode knows how to grab
Speaker 1: an alligator by the very front of the nose and
Speaker 1: he opens the mouth, pushes the gator off, shuts the door,
Speaker 1: runs inside, and calls nine to one one. Cops come
Speaker 1: and they find the gator under the trailer by the house.
Speaker 1: The Florida Wildlife guys come out and trap the gator
Speaker 1: almost immediately. Florida man goes to the hospital. He's gonna
Speaker 1: be okay. And I'm starting to be bothered by this
Speaker 1: Florida custom. I say custom. It's literally a law in
Speaker 1: Florida that you're not allowed to kill gators unless it's
Speaker 1: a direct threat to your life. So you mean, even
Speaker 1: after the gator bites the Florida man, when y'all find
Speaker 1: it under the trailer next to the house, he doesn't
Speaker 1: get to shoot and kill it, or when you catch it,
Speaker 1: he doesn't get to like kill it and eat it
Speaker 1: or have it or say it bit it. Come on,
Speaker 1: can't you like infer some partial ownership to a wildlife
Speaker 1: after it bites you, you know, like a little payback
Speaker 1: or something. At least get some sausage out of it
Speaker 1: or a pair of boots. A right for our next
Speaker 1: Florida story. This is the first time I've even heard
Speaker 1: of this town. It's called Southwest Ranches, Southwest Ranches, and
Speaker 1: what we have is a wedding and on someone's most
Speaker 1: special night of couples getting together and then make their
Speaker 1: vows in front of God and family and their closest friends,
Speaker 1: and then they have a kick ass adding reception. They've
Speaker 1: got DJ Campo there, his real name's Jonathan, but he's
Speaker 1: spinning it and he's killing it, and the dance floor
Speaker 1: is hopping and it's a little too loud, so he
Speaker 1: gets some noise complaints in the cops call, and the
Speaker 1: owner of the venue, who happens to be on site,
Speaker 1: tells him, Hey, Campo, DJ Campbo, you got to turn
Speaker 1: it down. He's like, I don't know if I can. Man.
Speaker 1: You know, the roof is on fire. We gotta let
Speaker 1: it burn. I'm serious. We've already got a call from
Speaker 1: the cops. It can't see turned it down. But there's
Speaker 1: another call from the cops. So the owner says, if
Speaker 1: I have to tell you again, we're just shutting this
Speaker 1: whole thing down, And of course there's another call from
Speaker 1: the cops and he tells DJ Campo to turn it down,
Speaker 1: and DJ Campo says, no, I'm gonna finish my reception
Speaker 1: and the owner pulls out a gun and says, no,
Speaker 1: you're not. And so, in the classic rock paper scissors
Speaker 1: esque version of turntables versus Glock, Glock wins and I
Speaker 1: think the cops agree. They arrested the dude. He's being
Speaker 1: charged and brandishing a handguy and waving around it. I mean,
Speaker 1: it's awful because yeah, there's a bunch of people who
Speaker 1: caught it on video too. So you know, my wedding,
Speaker 1: it was beautiful, it was great, it was perfect. It
Speaker 1: didn't have anything fun like this. And I don't know
Speaker 1: that it's part of me. It's kind of envious. I
Speaker 1: know that's really stupid. But I've been doing like four
Speaker 1: years of Florida Stories. Okay, so it's making me stupid.
Speaker 1: I'm James Parker. Florida Stories is a spring rock production
Speaker 1: on the Red Apple Audio Networks.
Speaker 7: Well, the whole thing descends into the vapid viscosity of
Speaker 7: a dud.
Speaker 5: You and I are on WGN in Chicago. About fifty
Speaker 5: thousand rubber ducks were released into the river today in
Speaker 5: Chicago for the Duck Race. The annual Duck Race. A spectacular, blazing,
Speaker 5: beautiful sight, incredible to see Walter Sterling the other side
Speaker 5: of midnight. Do you want me to do anything? Am
Speaker 5: I supposed to do anything? And just keep talking?
Speaker 10: Oh?
Speaker 4: That? Does you want to go where nobody knows the
Speaker 4: manager name.
Speaker 1: And the services lame?
Speaker 10: You want to go with nobody actually cares about you?
Speaker 7: You want to go a drive.
Speaker 4: Yes?
Speaker 11: Hello, I'm JJ Wilson and this is drive through brewin
Speaker 11: the continuing story of two guys who struggle to achieve
Speaker 11: the American dream by selling meer and wine at a
Speaker 11: drive through. Let's listen in as the manager addresses his
Speaker 11: restless young employee, Jake.
Speaker 10: Jake, you said you had something you wanted to talk
Speaker 10: to me about.
Speaker 4: Oh yeah, I decided to quit. Today is my last day.
Speaker 4: What I watched a webinar last night and found out
Speaker 4: how I can make five thousand dollars a week selling
Speaker 4: jelly beans online and I don't even have to store
Speaker 4: the beans or ship them.
Speaker 10: Sounds like a come on to me, I know, but.
Speaker 4: I actually seen the invoices in one guy May five
Speaker 4: thousand and sixty eight bucks after only three weeks, and
Speaker 4: him and his wife only worked ten minutes a day.
Speaker 10: Come on, if that we're true, wouldn't everybody be doing it.
Speaker 10: I promise you there's a catch somewhere.
Speaker 4: That's what my daddy said, Jake.
Speaker 10: I've seen some of these get rich quick schemes on YouTube.
Speaker 10: The way to really get ahead is to work hard
Speaker 10: and make wise choices. That's what my mama says exactly.
Speaker 10: So let's get back to now, who's this jerk in
Speaker 10: the land?
Speaker 1: Hey, fell let's just go ahead and give me a
Speaker 1: couple of big cases, champagne. I just sold my business
Speaker 1: for forty six million bucks.
Speaker 4: Wow, what kind of business was it?
Speaker 1: Well, my wife and I sold thumbtacks online.
Speaker 12: Before that, we were a professional gamblers, and before that
Speaker 12: we were day traders. We bought Amazon nineteen ninety seven
Speaker 12: for fifty six since a share Gosh.
Speaker 4: I wish I was you.
Speaker 12: Take my advice stop wasting your time at a dead
Speaker 12: end job like this one.
Speaker 1: If I were you, i'd quit today. Some text.
Speaker 11: Forty six million?
Speaker 1: What's that thing? For real?
Speaker 11: And will Jake take his advice and actually quit the
Speaker 11: drive through? Listen next time when Jake tells his manager.
Speaker 4: I've decided to stay on a couple more weeks. According
Speaker 4: to my real estate coach, I'm gonna need about two
Speaker 4: hundred bucks to start flipping houses.
Speaker 11: That's next time I'm drive through brew word cars.

Speaker 5: I remain fascinated by the WNBA. It's the only sport
Speaker 5: that I understand. It's not a mystery to me. All
Speaker 5: other sports are incredible mysteries to me. The WNBA today
Speaker 5: announced that they have a new franchise in Cleveland. Many
Speaker 5: years ago, they had a friend in Cleveland that shut
Speaker 5: down because it went bankrupt. The franchise is going to
Speaker 5: be called the Sirens, which is a really good name,
Speaker 5: and they posted their logo and it looks fantastic. I'm like, okay,
Speaker 5: this is good.
Speaker 1: Now.
Speaker 5: What happened to the WNBA in the past two years
Speaker 5: that has taken it from being nobody cares and nobody
Speaker 5: knows about it to what it is today? Hands? Please? Hands?
Speaker 5: Anybody have an answer?
Speaker 7: Oh?
Speaker 5: Oh wait, you all have the same answer. The answer
Speaker 5: is Caitlin Clark. Now, you're a business person, you're a
Speaker 5: practical person. You have children. You know that when something
Speaker 5: enters your universe that is really working and helps you
Speaker 5: achieve what you've always wanted to achieve.
Speaker 1: What do you do? What do you do?
Speaker 5: You take care of it? John Catsimatidis operating Gristiti's Dagostino's.
Speaker 5: When he gets a store manager that shows up early,
Speaker 5: helps stock the sh shelves, the employees don't complain about him,
Speaker 5: makes reasonable demands, hits his numbers. What does John do?
Speaker 5: Rewards him, pets him, thanks him, takes him out for
Speaker 5: an expensive meal. That's what you do. What has the
Speaker 5: WNBA done for Caitlin Clark, who took them from small
Speaker 5: venues to huge venues, took them from buses to flying
Speaker 5: private took them into multi million dollar branding deals. What
Speaker 5: did he do? She did all that, and what did
Speaker 5: they do for her? They kicked her ass, treat her
Speaker 5: like crap. Let her get injured. These are the dumbest people.
Speaker 5: Oh wait, oh they're all jocks. Ray, welcome, you're on
Speaker 5: the other side of midnight.
Speaker 2: Hi.
Speaker 5: Ray, all right, excitedly.
Speaker 14: You were talking about how they have all those ducks
Speaker 14: in the Chicago River. Yes, and I was wondering if
Speaker 14: you remember in the early two thousand Dave Matthews band
Speaker 14: tour bus.
Speaker 7: To dump the suit.
Speaker 14: So the tour bus driver is start one of those.
Speaker 5: Ray. I like you, but I can't understand you. There's
Speaker 5: a problem with the phone connection. Thank you for the call.
Speaker 5: That's why I went like this. I kept calling like this.
Speaker 5: I U Yeah. I happen to hate cell phones because
Speaker 5: that's that's what always happens. When there was a landline.
Speaker 5: That never happened. Right when there was a landline, I'd
Speaker 5: say goodbye hello and that would be the end of it.
Speaker 5: Now with cell phones, what do we have? Cell phone
Speaker 5: calls and with the word hello Hello. It's not a
Speaker 5: good system. It's not a better system. The only one
Speaker 5: of the few things that's better is that one of
Speaker 5: the few things that's better is that they're no longer
Speaker 5: these insane charges for long distance calls. Until very recently,
Speaker 5: if you wanted to make a long distance call, do
Speaker 5: you remember, it was a cost of fortune. You waited
Speaker 5: till after seven o'clock at night, and if you were
Speaker 5: a student, you did that trick of your parents would
Speaker 5: call you collect and you'd say no, and then they'd
Speaker 5: call again or something. But we worked it out so
Speaker 5: it was always free, or we worked it out so
Speaker 5: that if I call you, I'll make it a collect call,
Speaker 5: you won't accept the collect call, and then I'll know
Speaker 5: you have arrived. That was the code. That's what every
Speaker 5: college kid did when they went away. They would make
Speaker 5: collect calls and their parents wouldn't accept it, and then
Speaker 5: you'd know that they were home. Yeah, that's what we
Speaker 5: used to have to do. That's what we had to
Speaker 5: resort to. It was not easy. That's the only thing
Speaker 5: I can think of that it's cheaper today than it
Speaker 5: was twenty years ago. Long distance calls call anywhere in
Speaker 5: America on a cell phone, same price, Gary in New Jersey,
Speaker 5: Welcome to the other side. Have been tonight, Gary?
Speaker 7: Hello, Hyah Walter. You know I don't want to call
Speaker 7: all the time, but when you mentioned Datelin Clark. Yeah,
Speaker 7: and the WNBA criminals, they are the worst orse lead
Speaker 7: just discussing and it's disgusting. And my new hero is
Speaker 7: Sophie Cunningham.
Speaker 5: Genius. She's a genius.
Speaker 7: He is wonderful, She's got Cajon's And you know the
Speaker 7: fact that these girls have taken women's sports were never noticed.
Speaker 5: Ever, right, go ahead, and.
Speaker 7: Now what they've done for a league that is miss
Speaker 7: ma and they know they are great players, and they
Speaker 7: continue to do what they do. And the fact that
Speaker 7: they're being defiled by so many people in the media
Speaker 7: and in the social media, it's just appalling to me.
Speaker 5: What I don't understand is the WNBA is owned by
Speaker 5: the NBA. Why the NBA, which is fairly well managed,
Speaker 5: doesn't step in take charge and say enough you have
Speaker 5: this tremendous asset. What they should have done with Caitlin
Speaker 5: has teamed her up in any logical venue with Lebron James.
Speaker 5: The two of them together leaders of basketball in America,
Speaker 5: elevated her, made him look human. The two of them
Speaker 5: would have been a very potent, powerful pr machine for
Speaker 5: basketball in general. And I kept waiting for Lebron to
Speaker 5: extend his hand to her, to show up with her
Speaker 5: at some event, for him to stand up and say, no,
Speaker 5: we can't have transgender people in the WNBA.
Speaker 1: And that's insane.
Speaker 5: You know, they're all just a bunch of cowards, because
Speaker 5: what do they do. They throw a ball, That's all
Speaker 5: they know how to do. They don't know how to strategize,
Speaker 5: they don't know how to think for other people. They
Speaker 5: don't know how to promote an idea. They're just freaking jocks.
Speaker 5: They're the same people. Those people are the same people
Speaker 5: that threw you against a locker in high school. Congratulations,
Speaker 5: that's who runs the NBA. Thanks for the call. Carry
Speaker 5: I appreciate the call. Well this is I'll look at
Speaker 5: that once again. I've got a big fix. Action required
Speaker 5: on my computer screen. No action required, but but there
Speaker 5: it is. This is why you don't have PCs. You
Speaker 5: just don't want to have PCs. All my life, I've
Speaker 5: I got the very first Mac, the very first Max
Speaker 5: I had one of the very first MAX. From that
Speaker 5: moment till now, I've never had any problem with the MAC.
Speaker 5: We didn't have to adjust anything in the year two thousand.
Speaker 5: We didn't have to adjust any security issues. I didn't
Speaker 5: have to restart. And it's always interesting on PCs, you
Speaker 5: always have to restarted an incredibly critical moment. It's as
Speaker 5: though they know, as though it has AI in it
Speaker 5: AI designed to make our lives miserable. Please get back
Speaker 5: to me. Let's talk about this next show. When your
Speaker 5: life has touched AI, has your life gotten better? Has
Speaker 5: your life improved when you've gotten near an AI thing?
Speaker 5: After you asked AI chat, GPT or whatever it is.
Speaker 5: Sidney Sweeney's bra size after you asked it that, was
Speaker 5: there any interest that you've had in AI? Of course not.
Speaker 5: And then what did it say about Sydney Sweeney's bras side.
Speaker 5: It says we don't answer intimate questions, right, They'll answer
Speaker 5: who built the pyramids, but they won't answer what raw
Speaker 5: Sydney Sney wears it's an astonishing code of fruits in
Speaker 5: Silicon Valley who have never had sex, They've only had
Speaker 5: intimate time with the computer. And therefore you're not gonna
Speaker 5: find out about Sydney Sweeney's brass size. I'm Walter Sterling.

Speaker 5: the greatest gift you and I can receive is a
Speaker 5: request for help.

Speaker 4: No, that Walter is always right.
Speaker 3: It's the the the the other side of midnight.
Speaker 7: Well, the whole thing descends into the vapid viscosity of
Speaker 7: a dud.
Speaker 11: Everything swinging, everybody's singing.
Speaker 2: You're with Walter Sterling on the other side of midnight.
Speaker 5: With Robert Clotworthy, the voice of ancient Aliens, the voice
Speaker 5: of the Curse of Oak Island Gold, the man who
Speaker 5: voices all of the shows that we watch in silence
Speaker 5: and private. When our women companions are doing something else
Speaker 5: and we actually get to choose what we want to watch.
Speaker 5: On TV, we are greeted by the voice of Robert Clotworthy.
Speaker 16: Hello, Robert, I am hungry, Walter. I all that talk
Speaker 16: about Peter Lugers.
Speaker 5: Isn't that remarkable? Have you been to Peter Luger?
Speaker 16: I have not, But Kevin Burns, I know, we talked
Speaker 16: a little bit about him last week, the late creator
Speaker 16: of Ancient Aliens and Curse of Oak Island. He actually
Speaker 16: had a Peter Luger's credit card. I know they only
Speaker 16: take cash, but a few people have an account. He
Speaker 16: had an account and he would give steaks, boxes of
Speaker 16: steaks as Christmas gifts. He even flew. He was you
Speaker 16: know he did he does The Unknown, did the Unknown
Speaker 16: or with William Shatner, And he was flying William to
Speaker 16: something and he said, you know what, let's stop off
Speaker 16: at Peter Luger's. It's on the way. So he had
Speaker 16: hit the jet, change course go to New York so
Speaker 16: he could go to Peter Luger's and have have lunch.
Speaker 5: And in fairness, Kevin Burns looks like the sort of
Speaker 5: fellow who would enjoy lunch at Peter Luger's.
Speaker 16: Oh my goodness, yeah, he I'm sure could finish the stake,
Speaker 16: no problem. You know out here there's a place called
Speaker 16: Ruth Chris and Beverly Hills. When that was there, not
Speaker 16: only was he a regular there, they actually had his
Speaker 16: name on one of the booths.
Speaker 5: Yes. I don't doubt that for one second. He would
Speaker 5: be a larger than life character from birth.
Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, yeah.
Speaker 5: Now who runs the show? Now?
Speaker 2: Uh?
Speaker 16: There's uh. When Kevin passed away, he left the production
Speaker 16: company to three people. Joe Lissard, which was who was
Speaker 16: his personal assistant. He was, you know, he was Kevin's
Speaker 16: right hand man, Kim Egan, who he's known since he
Speaker 16: was in Boston, and then Dave Comtois, who was actually
Speaker 16: his teacher's assistant when he was teaching film at Boston University.
Speaker 16: So they go way back. They've they've known each other
Speaker 16: a long time. So the three of them are now
Speaker 16: the people that run Prometheus, and I got to say
Speaker 16: they're doing. I mean, they've taken what Kevin created and
Speaker 16: made it even better. What's Cintury all tell wonderful Kevin stories.
Speaker 5: I'm sure every television series that I've ever known has
Speaker 5: been run by the type of person that Kevin Burns was.
Speaker 5: They are they have to be larger than life just
Speaker 5: to deal with the bureaucracy of their distributor. Yeah, and
Speaker 5: to deal with the bureaucracy of production unions and egos
Speaker 5: and oh my gosh, and they and they have to
Speaker 5: feel that they're always right. But his vision is brilliant
Speaker 5: because a lot of television producers that I have known
Speaker 5: there they have very big ideas, and they're very good ideas,
Speaker 5: and they have insanely expensive ideas, and that hurts them
Speaker 5: getting them on the air, whereas Kevin's ideas meet all
Speaker 5: the criteria but appear to be economical and makes sense.
Speaker 16: Yeah, yeah, yeah, he was. He was brilliant in that way.
Speaker 16: He really understood what the public was interested in. He
Speaker 16: was a fan of television and a fan of those shows.
Speaker 16: I mean, you know, he did the all those biography shows.
Speaker 16: He was in doing narration for a long long documentaries
Speaker 16: for a long long time, so we really understood the business.
Speaker 16: And he just had this ability at his fingers on
Speaker 16: the pulse of what the what the public was interested in.
Speaker 5: Now, this week there was Robert Clotworthy news five thousand
Speaker 5: explosions were slammed against the Moon to see what would happen.
Speaker 16: And well, and by the way, thank you for sending
Speaker 16: me that the Sumerian texts or the cuneiform tablets that
Speaker 16: talk about the Earth before the moon list. And by
Speaker 16: the way, I think we're going to be doing another
Speaker 16: episode about the Moon.
Speaker 5: I'm sure, and I'm sure that that was what I
Speaker 5: sent you is practically a script for one of your
Speaker 5: next shows. Oh yeah, thank you, right. But I think
Speaker 5: what was interesting this week was that they slammed a
Speaker 5: rocket into the Moon on purpose. And Doctor Sky, one
Speaker 5: of the hosts on the Red Apple Audio network. Doctor
Speaker 5: Sky has has a big telescope. He lives in Arizona,
Speaker 5: no ambient light. He studied it. He was staring at
Speaker 5: that moon and he saw nothing, and he knew exactly
Speaker 5: what he should. I think, well, maybe this is a conspiracy.
Speaker 5: Maybe nothing did land on the Moon. Maybe they just
Speaker 5: said it. What do you think?
Speaker 16: I think the Moon is a giant mystery that's that's
Speaker 16: floating around out in space, that has got so many
Speaker 16: secrets and mysteries that we that we need to figure
Speaker 16: out there's a lot going on in the Moon. What
Speaker 16: it is, why it is is is one of the
Speaker 16: great mysteries of life. It's it's it affects our moods,
Speaker 16: it affects so much of our day to day life
Speaker 16: on our on our planet. And I can't imagine not
Speaker 16: having it there. But I believe that it wasn't there
Speaker 16: at one point.
Speaker 5: I believe it wasn't there at one point too. But
Speaker 5: the Earth had to be dramatically different than it is today,
Speaker 5: the oceans had to be dramatically different. But one of
Speaker 5: the things that I find amazing is when I asked,
Speaker 5: why did we explode things on the Moon this week?
Speaker 5: What was the purpose? And the purpose was to do
Speaker 5: a number of tests relative to the light of the sun,
Speaker 5: because I learned that for the first time, I learned
Speaker 5: that the craters do not get one hundred percent exposure
Speaker 5: on any given day, only about if it's a crater,
Speaker 5: only about half the time does the sun hit it,
Speaker 5: and the rest of the.
Speaker 16: Time, and that's why you think there's actually there's actually ice.
Speaker 5: But then then I said, well, okay, that's nice. What
Speaker 5: doesn't matter, And they said, well, it'll affect where we
Speaker 5: establish bases to live, and the logical place for bases
Speaker 5: to live is in the craters because there's the shade
Speaker 5: and the sun, I said, And I said, who the
Speaker 5: hell would want to live in a crater on the Moon.
Speaker 5: This sounds like a bad plan. I mean, the outcome
Speaker 5: does not seem.
Speaker 16: Optimistic, so you're not going to be signing up.
Speaker 5: Well, I think it makes a little more sense than
Speaker 5: take a trip to Mars. That's where you'll die. I
Speaker 5: think it's better better than coming back. No, never come
Speaker 5: and think about it.
Speaker 16: When you when you're in space, you grow taller.
Speaker 5: Oh oh really? That that's when I missed? Was that
Speaker 5: like a whole segment on your show that?
Speaker 1: Yes, you know I was.
Speaker 16: I was talking to my friend NASA, and I said,
Speaker 16: what's you know? Tell me some peculiar things about space travel?
Speaker 16: She said, Well, they discovered that, you know, your your
Speaker 16: spine starts to get longer. Wow, you actually get taller,
Speaker 16: and and your legs are useless.
Speaker 1: She said.
Speaker 16: A perfect astronaut would be someone with no legs, wow,
Speaker 16: because they just get in the way.
Speaker 5: Now, do you have information on upcoming episodes of Ancient
Speaker 5: Aliens that you'd like to show.
Speaker 16: Yeah, I just did one this week, and it's a
Speaker 16: biography where we talk about avvy Lobe and the Harvard astrophysicists,
Speaker 16: actually the head of the Harvard god what is it
Speaker 16: astronomy department, and his life story out how he has become.
Speaker 16: You know, first he was a skeptic when he came
Speaker 16: to UAPs, and now he's I think working with the
Speaker 16: White House and is leading the investigation into UAPs.
Speaker 5: And he says that it's a lot different than what
Speaker 5: we've been told. Is that right?
Speaker 1: Yeah?
Speaker 5: Yeah, and you're going to reveal that on your show.
Speaker 16: We will be revealing that. We're going to dig deep
Speaker 16: into his theories and his book and he's interviewed. It's
Speaker 16: a really really good episode.
Speaker 1: Right.
Speaker 5: So he's the man in charge of how much we
Speaker 5: get to see and when in terms of the government files.
Speaker 5: Is that right?
Speaker 2: Yeah?
Speaker 16: And he's I believe so. And he's a guy that
Speaker 16: really wants the information to be out. You know, he
Speaker 16: was you know when Mua Moua was first discovered, he
Speaker 16: was the one that first posited the theory that it
Speaker 16: was an extra extraterrestrial.
Speaker 5: Got it? What day is that going to air? Do
Speaker 5: you know who thatck knows?
Speaker 16: I just recorded it this week. I'm sure it'll be
Speaker 16: probably a month or two out.
Speaker 5: Yeah, but you're you're the vo guy. How much posts
Speaker 5: could there be? They could probably put that out.
Speaker 16: Tomorrow, they could they could well, you know, maybe not
Speaker 16: tomorrow because I'm sure I'll have to go in and
Speaker 16: do a few pickups really, but certainly within the next
Speaker 16: week or so. It all depends on the History Channel
Speaker 16: and how they factored into their schedule.
Speaker 5: Robert.
Speaker 16: It seems like like we don't do ten in a row.
Speaker 16: It's like we record them, but then they do two,
Speaker 16: then they wait a couple of weeks to another three,
Speaker 16: so they release them in blocks.
Speaker 5: I learned this week that they shoot three Price of
Speaker 5: Rights in a day three and when mister Barker was alive,
Speaker 5: they did one because that's what he wanted to do.
Speaker 16: But I've been to a CBS on Beverly, I've worked
Speaker 16: on Young and the Restless when they were doing the
Speaker 16: Prices right and it was on another show. I'll tell
Speaker 16: you a few of those experiences because it was wild.
Speaker 5: It was an amazing technical achievement when they do that show.
Speaker 5: But I thank you, Robert Clotworthy the voice of ancient aliens,
Speaker 5: and the greatest gift that you and I can receive
Speaker 5: is a request for help.
Speaker 1: Thanks for listening to the Other Side of Midnight.
