WEBVTT 1 00:00:02.200 --> 00:00:04.839 You see something's going to happen. 2 00:00:06.320 --> 00:00:10.599 What what's going to happen? 3 00:00:12.359 --> 00:00:26.920 I'll think what you up? Everybody? Welcome to another Headless 4 00:00:27.000 --> 00:00:30.320 is Magical mail bag. Say hi to my co host Nick, Nick, 5 00:00:30.320 --> 00:00:31.519 how are you doing today? 6 00:00:32.039 --> 00:00:34.000 What is up is going on? Sir? How the hell 7 00:00:34.039 --> 00:00:34.359 are you. 8 00:00:36.600 --> 00:00:39.359 Doing well? Doing well? So we got a lot of 9 00:00:39.399 --> 00:00:41.759 mail in the mail bag, but first let's get to 10 00:00:41.840 --> 00:00:42.560 our symbols. 11 00:00:43.200 --> 00:00:45.399 Do you want to go first or it's up to 12 00:00:45.439 --> 00:00:47.119 you if you want to go first. I mean, if 13 00:00:47.159 --> 00:00:48.880 you want me to go first, I can definitely do that, 14 00:00:48.920 --> 00:00:50.159 So that's not a problem. 15 00:00:50.920 --> 00:00:52.759 Well, I got mine pulled up, so I might as 16 00:00:52.759 --> 00:00:55.520 well add that to the stage. So I want to 17 00:00:55.560 --> 00:01:00.399 talk a little bit about Zagrias, and Zagrias is definitely 18 00:01:00.479 --> 00:01:03.359 one of the more interesting gods in the Greek pantheon 19 00:01:03.439 --> 00:01:06.560 that never gets any attention unless it's in a video 20 00:01:06.599 --> 00:01:10.000 game about the underworld, right, So if you've ever played 21 00:01:10.040 --> 00:01:13.159 Hades or Hades Too, you know about Zagrias and how 22 00:01:13.200 --> 00:01:15.920 he's sort of the main character, but they don't really 23 00:01:16.000 --> 00:01:19.200 give you a lot of the backstory. And even in 24 00:01:19.280 --> 00:01:25.000 the game, like Dionysus is one of your helpers or 25 00:01:25.040 --> 00:01:28.519 patrons in the game, and that doesn't make any sense 26 00:01:28.560 --> 00:01:33.040 because Zagrias is Dionysus before dying and being risen again, 27 00:01:33.959 --> 00:01:37.400 so it's it's kind of weird. But anyways, I was 28 00:01:37.439 --> 00:01:40.439 playing Hades and I thought to myself, I have done Zagrias. 29 00:01:40.439 --> 00:01:42.959 I'm gonna bring him up. So Zagrias is said to 30 00:01:42.959 --> 00:01:50.319 be the son of Zeus and Persephone, right, and Zeus, 31 00:01:50.680 --> 00:01:55.920 in the form of a snake, you know, tempted Persephone 32 00:01:55.959 --> 00:02:00.519 away from Hades, right, and then she gave birth thought 33 00:02:00.519 --> 00:02:03.239 it was his, turns out it was his brother's. And 34 00:02:03.319 --> 00:02:07.239 so this character, Zagrias is a guy that's completely out 35 00:02:07.239 --> 00:02:09.639 of place, right, So he doesn't feel at home in 36 00:02:09.680 --> 00:02:13.719 the underworld because Hades ain't his father. He doesn't know 37 00:02:13.759 --> 00:02:19.520 that his father is Zeups, Hades' brother, and Hades doesn't 38 00:02:19.560 --> 00:02:25.360 know that. So this kind of this goes bad for Hara, right. 39 00:02:25.479 --> 00:02:30.639 So Harah finds out that Zeus has another kid with somebody, 40 00:02:30.919 --> 00:02:34.680 you know, one of her sisters, and she's pissed. So 41 00:02:34.879 --> 00:02:40.120 she goes down and throws Zagrias to the Titans, right, 42 00:02:40.280 --> 00:02:42.960 and so he gets ripped apart limb from Melm and 43 00:02:43.000 --> 00:02:47.719 then she saves his heart. So as the as the 44 00:02:47.759 --> 00:02:52.159 Titans are full of Zagrias stuff. Zeus comes down and 45 00:02:52.199 --> 00:02:56.639 completely decimates all of the all of the Titans with 46 00:02:56.800 --> 00:03:01.360 his thunderbolts, and in doing so, the ashes mixed with 47 00:03:01.439 --> 00:03:05.120 the soil, and that's where humans come from. Where the 48 00:03:05.199 --> 00:03:13.039 consumed flesh of God's zagrias as it is now made 49 00:03:13.039 --> 00:03:17.520 into dirt through the process of the Titans, So where 50 00:03:17.560 --> 00:03:21.879 the consumed and regurgitated flesh of the God. So that's 51 00:03:21.879 --> 00:03:23.719 sort of where they got their oppression of us. Now, 52 00:03:23.840 --> 00:03:27.879 Zagrias also had In some stories they talk about this 53 00:03:28.000 --> 00:03:32.719 special mirror he had, and Zagrias's mirror was said to 54 00:03:32.840 --> 00:03:38.479 show alternative realities, so if you're thinking about making a decision, 55 00:03:39.000 --> 00:03:43.800 it should show you the outcome of that decision. It's 56 00:03:43.919 --> 00:03:48.280 really interesting because this is the Greeks talking about multiple 57 00:03:48.319 --> 00:03:52.360 world hypothesis, you know, sort of like what if the 58 00:03:52.560 --> 00:03:57.280 strings of fate are realigned and they go differently and 59 00:03:57.319 --> 00:03:59.759 this gives you the results. So they were thinking about 60 00:03:59.800 --> 00:04:03.560 this sort of multi dimensional choose your own adventure thing 61 00:04:04.520 --> 00:04:07.639 thousands of years ago, and we're only now starting to 62 00:04:07.879 --> 00:04:11.199 think about the multi world hypothesis when it's sort of 63 00:04:11.319 --> 00:04:16.519 like central to the story of Zagaras, but Zagoras, after 64 00:04:17.360 --> 00:04:20.879 his heart is saved by hera, Zeus puts it in 65 00:04:20.920 --> 00:04:24.959 his thigh, oh, and carries it in his thigh until 66 00:04:25.680 --> 00:04:29.680 the new Zagaras, Dionysus pops out of his thigh and 67 00:04:29.720 --> 00:04:32.920 then becomes the god of wine and drink. But this 68 00:04:33.040 --> 00:04:36.519 is one of the reasons why Dinysus is the dying 69 00:04:36.519 --> 00:04:43.160 and rising god is because of Zagrias. So Zagariaas becomes Dionysus. 70 00:04:44.160 --> 00:04:48.279 So there's an interesting sort of a tie in between 71 00:04:48.319 --> 00:04:51.360 all of that stuff, because Dionysus then becomes kind of 72 00:04:51.360 --> 00:04:55.839 this Jesus figure, So this is like the proto proto 73 00:04:55.959 --> 00:05:01.839 Jesus figure. Again, the underworld is interesting because Jesus goes 74 00:05:01.879 --> 00:05:06.480 into the underworld to retrieve the keys. Right while he's 75 00:05:06.600 --> 00:05:10.680 you know, in the tomb for three days, he goes 76 00:05:10.720 --> 00:05:13.680 to the underworld to get the keys of Hell, right, 77 00:05:14.600 --> 00:05:17.480 very Zagrius type thing to do. Like this is very 78 00:05:17.800 --> 00:05:21.120 kind of closely related to this underworld mythology that's going 79 00:05:21.160 --> 00:05:25.839 on with Zeus and ze there's some sort of keys 80 00:05:25.879 --> 00:05:30.639 that keep the Titans in right, So kind of an 81 00:05:30.680 --> 00:05:32.480 interesting crossover. What do you think about that? 82 00:05:33.399 --> 00:05:35.279 It's interesting. I don't know anything about this, so it's 83 00:05:35.319 --> 00:05:39.480 only to me. Yeah, well you know what you said 84 00:05:39.480 --> 00:05:42.680 something earlier. I mean, I get stuck on the stupidest things, 85 00:05:42.759 --> 00:05:44.399 the whole dirt stuff. I'm like, yo, it was like, 86 00:05:44.480 --> 00:05:46.720 how many different stories got us coming from dirt and. 87 00:05:46.639 --> 00:05:49.079 Clay, all of them. 88 00:05:50.439 --> 00:05:54.160 Yeah, but this one at least at least you're including electricity, 89 00:05:54.199 --> 00:05:56.279 at least you're putting some life into it, you know. 90 00:05:56.639 --> 00:05:59.120 The Lange, well. 91 00:05:59.000 --> 00:06:02.839 They had multiple cos cosmologies and the Greek you know, 92 00:06:03.120 --> 00:06:09.040 sort of poetry frame of reference. And Prometheus was said 93 00:06:09.040 --> 00:06:12.519 to be the other creator of mankind and he created 94 00:06:12.600 --> 00:06:15.720 us out of clay, right, So him and his brother 95 00:06:15.920 --> 00:06:19.560 Epimetheus were putting together all of the animals that would 96 00:06:19.639 --> 00:06:24.759 populate the earth during the time just past the Golden Age, 97 00:06:25.199 --> 00:06:30.160 and so Prometheus got to pick out of the list 98 00:06:30.240 --> 00:06:33.600 of like special attributes to give to animals. So you know, 99 00:06:33.720 --> 00:06:38.439 birds got wings and lions got claws, you know, and 100 00:06:39.519 --> 00:06:43.160 hyenas got the teeth. And when he finally came to mankind, 101 00:06:43.199 --> 00:06:46.279 he ran out of the special attributes in the box. 102 00:06:46.839 --> 00:06:51.759 So his brother Prometheus comes over and gives us forethought, 103 00:06:51.920 --> 00:06:54.360 and so again you've kind of got the same idea 104 00:06:54.439 --> 00:06:57.839 of we're giving something divine in our bodies or in 105 00:06:57.879 --> 00:07:01.839 our souls from the gods that makes us special. The 106 00:07:01.879 --> 00:07:06.720 rest of this dirt. 107 00:07:05.240 --> 00:07:09.160 Said, that's a that's even a thought that kind of 108 00:07:09.199 --> 00:07:13.079 like permeates through a lot of our thinking. Now that 109 00:07:13.240 --> 00:07:14.600 there's a part of God. 110 00:07:17.040 --> 00:07:22.079 Outam came from dirt. Even in the Aztec in mayand 111 00:07:22.120 --> 00:07:25.160 they they say that we are now the dirt people. 112 00:07:25.399 --> 00:07:25.560 Right. 113 00:07:25.639 --> 00:07:29.000 So they had four sons before this one, and in 114 00:07:29.079 --> 00:07:32.519 the other sons they had like corn people, and they 115 00:07:32.560 --> 00:07:35.120 had you know, other people that were made out of water. 116 00:07:35.199 --> 00:07:37.720 I believe I could be wrong about that, but now 117 00:07:37.839 --> 00:07:40.319 we were the dirt people. So even they call us 118 00:07:40.319 --> 00:07:42.680 the dirt people, you know, a whole continent away. So 119 00:07:42.759 --> 00:07:45.600 it's interesting how that continuity is sort of shared in there. 120 00:07:50.519 --> 00:07:55.519 What is going on you put that one up out 121 00:07:55.560 --> 00:07:59.480 of all of if you choose that one, I got 122 00:07:59.480 --> 00:08:09.000 a sledge a right, I'm done right now. 123 00:08:09.040 --> 00:08:11.439 Prometheus and Inankee you have a lot in common. It's like, 124 00:08:11.480 --> 00:08:14.000 this is the guy that's bringing all the sciences. This 125 00:08:14.079 --> 00:08:17.000 is the one who feels pity for mankind. And in 126 00:08:17.040 --> 00:08:20.399 the case of Prometheus, he felt such pity for mankind 127 00:08:21.040 --> 00:08:24.800 that Zeus in punishment of his bringing fire back to 128 00:08:24.879 --> 00:08:28.800 humanity as we were shivering and cold there, he nailed 129 00:08:29.000 --> 00:08:34.600 Prometheus to the Caucasus mountains for a thousand years. And 130 00:08:34.639 --> 00:08:37.120 so Ankie is the one who saves us sort of 131 00:08:37.120 --> 00:08:39.879 from the flood idea. He gets us away from his 132 00:08:39.960 --> 00:08:42.960 brother and so, and again there's not brothers too. So 133 00:08:43.399 --> 00:08:46.480 you've got Prometheus and Epimetheus, and then you've got Anki 134 00:08:46.559 --> 00:08:49.000 and Leo, and they're kind of like these brothers in 135 00:08:49.080 --> 00:08:52.480 kind of opposition. In the case of Prometheus, his brother 136 00:08:52.600 --> 00:08:57.639 was just a moron. So he's got Prometheus, which means forethought, 137 00:08:57.919 --> 00:09:01.879 and that Epimetheus means at a thought. So this is 138 00:09:01.919 --> 00:09:04.039 the guy who's always living in the past and he's 139 00:09:04.080 --> 00:09:07.639 always stuck on stupid and so he's he's the dim 140 00:09:07.639 --> 00:09:09.720 one and Prometheus is the smart one. 141 00:09:10.519 --> 00:09:17.679 I like it. That's funny. So you want me to uh, 142 00:09:17.799 --> 00:09:20.840 you want me to hit up my Yeah, we got 143 00:09:20.879 --> 00:09:23.639 the uh did I pull it up? Yeah? Oh no, 144 00:09:23.720 --> 00:09:25.600 I forgot the ship. I've been forgetting to share it lately. 145 00:09:25.679 --> 00:09:30.360 Jesus my man. I'm sorry, that's all right. It was 146 00:09:32.000 --> 00:09:33.720 Oh God, the one I opened up. I should have 147 00:09:33.799 --> 00:09:37.279 known I had. It's like black, it's it's it's transparent, 148 00:09:37.320 --> 00:09:39.399 so it's I'm not gonna look right, Hold on one second, 149 00:09:39.399 --> 00:09:45.679 I do have another one to choose. I apologize, right glyphs. Yeah, 150 00:09:45.679 --> 00:09:49.879 I have the aberc at dabor, which yeah, which is 151 00:09:49.919 --> 00:09:52.679 interesting because I actually it had nothing to do with 152 00:09:52.840 --> 00:09:55.559 uh with dirone mentioning it, but it is interesting how 153 00:09:55.559 --> 00:09:58.080 that came up as a as a schedule for me 154 00:09:58.120 --> 00:10:01.639 to pick keeps it up? Yeah, yeah, yeah, I was like, 155 00:10:01.679 --> 00:10:04.679 you know what, I think we'll go with that. So 156 00:10:04.799 --> 00:10:10.399 here is the abracadabra symbol or diminishing triangle amulet, if 157 00:10:10.399 --> 00:10:13.039 you might like to call it that. What is it. 158 00:10:13.039 --> 00:10:17.039 It's a text sigil formed by writing the word abercadabra 159 00:10:17.159 --> 00:10:20.799 and a triangle that loses one letter per line until 160 00:10:20.840 --> 00:10:24.159 a single A remains. In late antiquity, this was a 161 00:10:24.279 --> 00:10:29.879 medical talisman against cyclical fevers, especially malaria. It's not just 162 00:10:29.960 --> 00:10:34.960 a word, it's a digrammatic charm whose shape is part 163 00:10:35.000 --> 00:10:39.200 of the spell. The earliest known sightings from it or 164 00:10:39.320 --> 00:10:43.480 being around is late second early third century CE, in 165 00:10:43.600 --> 00:10:51.679 a Latin didactic poem called Liber Medicinalyis by Quintus Serenus 166 00:10:51.840 --> 00:10:55.600 Samonocus or s A M M O n I c Us, 167 00:10:55.960 --> 00:10:58.039 and he was a physician and a tutor at the 168 00:10:58.559 --> 00:11:03.879 Severin court. In chapter fifty one of that book, Lib 169 00:11:04.399 --> 00:11:08.399 medicon Analysis or whatever you're saying, that shows up and 170 00:11:08.440 --> 00:11:11.240 he gives a step by step instructions to draw the rug, 171 00:11:11.360 --> 00:11:15.879 to draw the triangle on paperis and tie it around 172 00:11:15.960 --> 00:11:21.559 the neck with linen for fever relief. And excerpt taken 173 00:11:21.559 --> 00:11:24.519 from that in parentheses right on a sheet the word 174 00:11:24.559 --> 00:11:28.679 abercadaber repeated on the lines below, each time emitting the 175 00:11:28.679 --> 00:11:31.840 final letter until a single letter remains, tapering it like 176 00:11:31.960 --> 00:11:35.759 a cone, attach it to the neck with a linen thread. 177 00:11:37.080 --> 00:11:39.519 So that's how it was actually taken out of a 178 00:11:39.679 --> 00:11:45.840 Liber medicinal la whatever and where it's been seen surviving 179 00:11:45.879 --> 00:11:50.960 examples University of Michigan. They have a third century Egyptian 180 00:11:51.480 --> 00:11:55.559 papyrus fever Ambulet in his sixth century Coptic codex that 181 00:11:56.039 --> 00:12:01.399 reproduces the aberca daba triangle. In it what it means 182 00:12:01.399 --> 00:12:04.960 the logic of the spell. The diminishing letters enact sympathetic 183 00:12:05.080 --> 00:12:09.279 magic as the word visibly wanes. The illness is supposed 184 00:12:09.279 --> 00:12:13.120 to dissipate the cone of the triangle is explicitly mentioned 185 00:12:13.120 --> 00:12:16.360 by Serenus. The material has to be papyrus and the 186 00:12:16.440 --> 00:12:21.279 next placement are all part of how it works. So 187 00:12:21.320 --> 00:12:26.240 there we go. I think I have another one that 188 00:12:26.279 --> 00:12:29.600 I can show possibly, Yeah does that how does that 189 00:12:29.639 --> 00:12:33.279 one show up? Yes? That looks weird? Yeah, there we 190 00:12:33.360 --> 00:12:33.960 got that back. 191 00:12:34.000 --> 00:12:34.519 Oh there you go. 192 00:12:36.960 --> 00:12:40.399 Yeah. So, uh, that is the Abricadabra. I've seen him 193 00:12:40.399 --> 00:12:42.679 plenty of times. I never actually knew it had to 194 00:12:42.720 --> 00:12:45.120 do anything with sickness or whatever. 195 00:12:46.080 --> 00:12:51.279 Hm. Well, it's a very interesting, interesting sigulation of those 196 00:12:51.440 --> 00:12:54.559 letters because you know, all of those letters are like 197 00:12:55.600 --> 00:12:59.200 big time in magic. When you're talking about the barbarous 198 00:12:59.200 --> 00:13:02.639 words and all the rest of Abra kha. You know, 199 00:13:02.720 --> 00:13:08.039 these are like the magic letters. You know, that's it. 200 00:13:08.519 --> 00:13:09.240 We'll ex give you that. 201 00:13:09.279 --> 00:13:15.000 You know that combination, right, And you know in the comments, 202 00:13:15.000 --> 00:13:19.519 they're talking about abraxis abra sachs or however they said it, 203 00:13:19.559 --> 00:13:22.399 and then it got mistranslated, and it's stuck to the mistranslation, 204 00:13:22.960 --> 00:13:25.320 and that's the idea of the three hundred and sixty 205 00:13:25.360 --> 00:13:29.759 five degree demon right, So he's in charge of all 206 00:13:29.759 --> 00:13:32.679 three hundred and sixty five degrees in the year, and 207 00:13:32.759 --> 00:13:36.960 so in essence, it's like almost every clock that's ticking 208 00:13:37.000 --> 00:13:43.960 away is being governed by this strange, cockheaded, snake legged entity. 209 00:13:45.080 --> 00:13:50.840 But I mean fevers. I'm not seeing the actual connection 210 00:13:50.919 --> 00:13:56.240 to fevers. You know, you know it might be code 211 00:13:56.320 --> 00:13:59.039 for something else because you got a lot of powerful 212 00:13:59.120 --> 00:14:04.240 letters there and there's fevers. Yeah, how do you treat fevers? 213 00:14:05.320 --> 00:14:08.000 You know? Right? Right? 214 00:14:09.240 --> 00:14:09.799 Is he never know? 215 00:14:10.480 --> 00:14:12.360 No, That's why I was surprised when it was for that. 216 00:14:12.440 --> 00:14:18.200 I was like, really, okay, you say so do we 217 00:14:18.240 --> 00:14:20.279 then you even have this the whole thing, like why 218 00:14:20.320 --> 00:14:22.600 did Crowley change it to abra? Abra had to abra? 219 00:14:23.799 --> 00:14:26.320 Like like is that for like if your footharts? Like 220 00:14:26.440 --> 00:14:28.559 you know what I'm saying, Like, you know, I just 221 00:14:28.600 --> 00:14:32.960 find it weird that he he whatever. I just yeah, 222 00:14:33.320 --> 00:14:36.720 I was very surprised to hear it was for malaria 223 00:14:36.759 --> 00:14:38.080 and fevers? 224 00:14:39.919 --> 00:14:41.799 All right, so we got some stories. 225 00:14:42.039 --> 00:14:44.840 We still got, uh what's her face in there? No? God, 226 00:14:44.879 --> 00:14:45.919 I forgot Winter York. 227 00:14:48.919 --> 00:14:53.039 I don't think we have anymore from Winter. I was 228 00:14:53.879 --> 00:14:55.240 gotta get in touch with her. 229 00:14:55.200 --> 00:14:57.480 But went you gotta send in the address to get 230 00:14:57.480 --> 00:14:58.480 some stickies. 231 00:14:58.960 --> 00:15:05.159 Right, We gotta get those. So let me see here. 232 00:15:05.279 --> 00:15:09.919 We've got a couple of pieces here. Well, let's just 233 00:15:09.960 --> 00:15:15.000 go with Liz s right, so high headless Giant. Nick 234 00:15:15.039 --> 00:15:17.679 may remember me from around this time last year. We 235 00:15:17.679 --> 00:15:20.159 were supposed to meet up and possibly Detroit, but that 236 00:15:20.200 --> 00:15:23.559 didn't pan out. Experiences. 237 00:15:24.200 --> 00:15:27.120 Yeah, I remember that was for the Juggalo thing. That's right, Oh, 238 00:15:27.120 --> 00:15:29.200 that's right. I'm supposed to be sending her stickies. She 239 00:15:29.279 --> 00:15:31.039 hit me up, told me she sent you an email 240 00:15:31.039 --> 00:15:32.639 and wanted stickies. I totally forgot. Fuck. 241 00:15:37.480 --> 00:15:41.360 I've had experiences. I believe six that I attributed to hallucinations, 242 00:15:41.360 --> 00:15:44.799 but I saw them before they actually happened. I didn't 243 00:15:44.799 --> 00:15:47.399 think that any of them. More did sharing the information, 244 00:15:47.480 --> 00:15:49.919 and I wanted to learn more about them, but without 245 00:15:50.000 --> 00:15:53.600 sounding like a crackhead. So recently, on August twenty fourth, 246 00:15:53.639 --> 00:15:57.600 I had a near death experience that was magnanimous in 247 00:15:57.639 --> 00:16:00.840 comparison to the other ones, much more. We're in detail 248 00:16:01.159 --> 00:16:04.200 what I believed was the release from my corpse. I've 249 00:16:04.200 --> 00:16:06.600 got plenty of information, and I think we could have 250 00:16:06.639 --> 00:16:09.879 a high level conversation where you keep me up to 251 00:16:09.919 --> 00:16:14.679 what is pertinent. It might be worth sharing on your podcast. 252 00:16:14.720 --> 00:16:15.360 That'll be fun. 253 00:16:16.960 --> 00:16:20.000 Oh, you should should be a good guess. She's got 254 00:16:20.000 --> 00:16:21.120 some crazy stories. 255 00:16:22.720 --> 00:16:24.879 All right, No, that was that was a quick one. 256 00:16:25.000 --> 00:16:27.720 But she's she's dropping the one. So what do you 257 00:16:27.759 --> 00:16:30.120 say next week we get in touch and get her 258 00:16:30.159 --> 00:16:30.639 on the show. 259 00:16:30.759 --> 00:16:33.120 Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Ultimately she did hit me up 260 00:16:33.120 --> 00:16:34.440 and told me I don't she said that she sent 261 00:16:34.480 --> 00:16:36.000 you something, So yeah, I'll let her up in the. 262 00:16:37.840 --> 00:16:40.200 Yeah, I got her all her info right there. 263 00:16:40.279 --> 00:16:42.679 Yeah. Yeah, then yeah, hit her up, man, make it happen, 264 00:16:45.200 --> 00:16:48.840 and let's see I've got she already said, let's do it. 265 00:16:48.879 --> 00:16:53.279 She's in the chat now, am I in? Yeah? She said. 266 00:16:56.080 --> 00:16:59.320 Sweet. So I got another one from another guy named Nick. 267 00:16:59.480 --> 00:17:02.240 It says hell, hello Nick, and had less long time listener, 268 00:17:02.320 --> 00:17:06.880 first time emailer. So I'm an overnight tractor trailer contractor 269 00:17:06.920 --> 00:17:10.039 for the United States Postal Service, moving in bulk from 270 00:17:10.039 --> 00:17:12.359 one side of the distribution center to the other in 271 00:17:12.400 --> 00:17:16.960 the glorious state of Maine. I love my truck drivers, 272 00:17:16.960 --> 00:17:19.920 needless to say, I get plenty of time to myself 273 00:17:19.960 --> 00:17:22.759 to listen to podcasts and music while on the road. 274 00:17:23.519 --> 00:17:26.880 One facility I transport to is completely empty while I 275 00:17:26.920 --> 00:17:31.240 am there offloading the trailer usually around three o'clock. In 276 00:17:31.319 --> 00:17:34.599 the three o'clock hour, last Tuesday, I happened to be 277 00:17:34.640 --> 00:17:37.599 in a music mood as I was offloading the trailer 278 00:17:37.640 --> 00:17:42.000 full of mail and my Apple Music app malfunctioned. I 279 00:17:42.119 --> 00:17:45.720 was at the aforementioned empty facility. I've been using this 280 00:17:45.839 --> 00:17:49.240 Apple Music app for years, and never have I experienced 281 00:17:49.240 --> 00:17:52.000 such a thing. The song I was listening to seemed 282 00:17:52.039 --> 00:17:55.519 to fast forward ten acts and skipped onto the next 283 00:17:55.519 --> 00:17:59.559 song that played even faster than then. I stopped that 284 00:17:59.640 --> 00:18:02.039 I was in the trailer and closed out the app. 285 00:18:02.079 --> 00:18:04.839 I decided to switch over to Spotify and started listening 286 00:18:04.920 --> 00:18:08.000 to a cult rejects podcast, The Delphi Murders with the 287 00:18:08.039 --> 00:18:12.839 Austin Paccard great episode. I put all my work gloves, 288 00:18:13.400 --> 00:18:16.200 grabbed the next case full of mail, and began backing 289 00:18:16.200 --> 00:18:19.720 out of the trailer when Spotify abruptly stopped working. In 290 00:18:19.839 --> 00:18:25.400 Apple Music Cube back up with Slayers rating Blood. Quite 291 00:18:25.440 --> 00:18:26.319 frustrated at this. 292 00:18:26.279 --> 00:18:29.039 Point, I've been listening to that. 293 00:18:29.559 --> 00:18:34.240 Actually yeah, I can just lay dude. I ever listened 294 00:18:34.240 --> 00:18:38.079 to this as high school. Quite frustrated. At this point, 295 00:18:38.079 --> 00:18:40.400 I couldn't help but laugh at the song choice and 296 00:18:40.519 --> 00:18:42.880 head banged all the way to the male staging area. 297 00:18:42.960 --> 00:18:46.519 When I got to the cage to place to place it, 298 00:18:47.000 --> 00:18:48.960 I spun it around and noticed that there was an 299 00:18:49.000 --> 00:18:54.240 Express mail bag tagged cremated human remains in that very cage. 300 00:18:55.759 --> 00:18:59.160 After cleansing. After a cleansing breath, I took my headphones 301 00:18:59.240 --> 00:19:01.559 out of my ears and just walked away. I was 302 00:19:01.640 --> 00:19:04.359 all set with music for the night. I didn't see 303 00:19:04.359 --> 00:19:06.480 any shadow out of the corner of my eyes, or 304 00:19:06.519 --> 00:19:10.160 flickering overhead lights or anything abnormal. But I can attest 305 00:19:10.200 --> 00:19:13.720 that I had some E MF type technology anomaly definitely 306 00:19:13.720 --> 00:19:19.480 occurring during this strange circumstance. Someone or something definitely wanted 307 00:19:19.519 --> 00:19:24.440 to listen to that song, and I got his address too, 308 00:19:24.519 --> 00:19:25.759 So I'm gonna send that over to you. 309 00:19:25.960 --> 00:19:29.079 Oh yeah, thank. 310 00:19:28.920 --> 00:19:30.240 You, thank you.

I was like, yeah, yeah, 316 00:19:52.359 --> 00:19:56.680 he knew that ship. That's a fabricated story. He's like 317 00:19:56.720 --> 00:19:59.039 fucking he said he said last week he said, if 318 00:19:59.039 --> 00:20:04.079 you make one up, I'll send down stick is all right?

It was like kind of answering like that. 342 00:21:09.640 --> 00:21:11.640 I'm very skeptical with that stuff, but his quote, my 343 00:21:11.680 --> 00:21:13.000 intention just put it that way. 344 00:21:14.119 --> 00:21:17.759 Yeah, that's awesome. We had that guy from I think 345 00:21:17.759 --> 00:21:19.119 it was Atlanta. 346 00:21:19.200 --> 00:21:22.720 Oh yeah, clt Yeah, the guy from Charlotte.

I don't know what people do 350 00:21:29.920 --> 00:21:34.119 for a community service award, but yeah, I mean it's 351 00:21:34.119 --> 00:21:35.400 a cool way to get in. It's a cool way 352 00:21:35.400 --> 00:21:37.160 to get into a graveyard and hang out for a while. 353 00:21:37.160 --> 00:21:39.799 Like guys clean a couple of heads. Respect for the dead. 354 00:21:39.839 --> 00:21:42.079 We hardly ever do that, you know. It's just the 355 00:21:42.119 --> 00:21:43.200 cemetery sit there. 356 00:21:43.319 --> 00:21:46.799 We just drive by them. You know, hardly anybody ever 357 00:21:46.839 --> 00:21:50.079 goes in to onto their ancestors or on the spirits 358 00:21:50.079 --> 00:21:50.880 that are hanging around. 359 00:21:50.960 --> 00:21:51.160 You know. 360 00:21:51.680 --> 00:21:54.079 No wonder we have so many hauntings and so many possessions. 361 00:21:54.119 --> 00:21:57.000 It's like we don't honor our debt anymore. So clearly 362 00:21:57.319 --> 00:22:00.599 they're kind of pissed about that.
