Speaker 2: You're listening to Paranormal Portal on Revolver Podcasts.
Speaker 3: I lost of control, brothers all that, and now she's
on her. She saw her, she can't leader, should not dance,
she st c with Comedia glance. She's older, she's older.
Speaker 4: Hello everybody, and welcome to another episode of the Paranormal
Portal podcast. I'm your host, Brent Thomas, and happily here
to fill your life full of paranormal wonder and amazement.
And uh, I am not alone either, because I got
my good friend and co host mister Don Longbeard here
with me as well.
Speaker 5: And I still don't know why he keeps bringing me back.
Speaker 4: Nah, you're you're you're an asset. Thank you, you're an
ass set. No, you're you're you're a great, great, great
addition to the show, brother, I was. I always enjoy
the episodes what we do together more so than the
ones I'm doing alone, believe me right. So we have
a great show lined up for you guys tonight and
and hopefully we'll keep you wildly entertained for the duration
of our podcast tonight. But if you have an encounter
encounter of your very own that deals with the paranormal
that you'd like to share with us here on the show,
you can certainly email us at Paranormal Portal Radio at
gmail dot com. If you'd like to come on the
show and share your experience in an interview, let me
know in the email too, because I've had a lot
of fun interviewing some of the listeners, and I think
that the more of you that get in and read
your own stories, the better, Because here's why, ladies and gentlemen,
if you come on the show and you tell us
your story, we have the opportunity to ask you questions
and to talk through the experience and really get a
great understanding of what's going on. So if you want
up here on the show, let me know in the
email again, Paranormal Portal Radio at gmail dot com. But
we are at it tonight, we're going to go through
a pretty wild phenomena and to me, this one really
goes pretty hand in hand with another major phenomena. So
if you guys are already, we're going to go in,
all right, guys tonight, what we're going to talk about, well,
let me just start out by saying, you know, people
do claim to be abducted by UFOs, and some incredible
stories have been brought brought out from people that have
experienced this phenomena, and many people will know and recognize
the name of Travis Walton and Betty and Barney Hill
and several others. But another phenomena that seems to go
hand in hand with this is missing time done no
it is, And what that means, ladies and gentlemen, for
those of you who may or may not be familiar
with the concept, is that people oftentimes don't know that
they've been sucked into a ship, that they've been pulled
up into the you know, there's some weird spacecraft and
timelike stops for them, and they really don't realize that
anything has happened because next thing they know, they'll look
at their clock and it's three hours later. And for them,
it's just been a moment. But so I thought that
this would tie in pretty good with the UFO concept
because this is a phenomenon many people have experienced. And
the thing is is, we're going to talk to you
just tonight about some people that have experienced missing time.
Now I want you to bear in mind, ladies and gentlemen,
that how many of these people could very well have
been abducted and not be aware of it. I think
that's pretty probable. What do you think, done?
Speaker 5: You know, that's that's probably the best way to even
think about it, because if you were missing time, you
should have no knowledge of it, you should have no
concept that you're missing anything. So yeah, I would have
to agree.
Speaker 4: There, you go. Yeah, I think you're right, buddy. I
think that you know, in a lot of cases, people
do have missing time, and then then they start noticing
something like a weird marks on their body and stuff
they don't ever remember seeing, and then they go to
the reverse hypnosis or regression hypnotic regression, and then they
find out this whole other, whole other narrative that happened
that they weren't even aware of. So but tonight we're
just going to focus on the missing time aspect, and
I think I think that it can be a natural
phenomena too, Ladies and gentlemen. I'm not saying that every
one of these was most probably an abduction scenario, but
it could be. I think that there were also time
anomalies that people just run into. I've experienced one or
two of them myself that I still to this day
can't explain. But usually they've been very welcome, though it's like,
you know, it's a part that I was okay missing.
So one of which was a blizzard road. I've mentioned
it many times on the show, but it was in
a nutshell. I was driving in this blizzard. It was horrible,
but there was this real treacherous part of the road
coming up, and I knew it was coming up because
I was very familiar with the road, even though I
couldn't see five feet in front of my car, and
I was really nervous about it. And the next thing
I know, I'm two miles past it and I'm seeing
the street signs, and somehow or another, I missed that
entire treacherous road. So I was just thrilled that I
missed it. But I still can't explain it to this day.
Have you ever had that happen done?
Speaker 5: You know, I actually have. You know, I was thinking
about it when you were talking. I was coming up
from Cortlane on ninety five back up here to the
house and it was pretty it was pretty snowy that night,
and I was going really really slow, and even though
I knew the road, but you know, I had that
whole Millennium Falcon effect going on. You know, it was
just it was just blowing and it was coming at
me and I had my lights on all the streaks
of frozen you know, water going by creating those light streaks,
and it felt like it didn't take as long as
it should have. And I was very thankful because you know,
those are tense drives, you know. So, yeah, I've had
a similar thing happen.
Speaker 4: Well, let's get into some of these other stories here
and see what these people have experienced. And the first
one off the top here is it's not the juiciest story,
but it really freaked me out. At the time. I
was playing games on my computer one evening at around
ten pm and decided to just finish what I was
doing and then head back to bed since I had
to work the next day, and the next thing I know,
I'm sat in front of my black screen in just
my undies and it's four am. Computer was cold, so
it must have been off for at least a little while.
No idea what happened, because I don't have a history
of sleepwalking. Well, there you go, there's same time. I
don't know. What do you think of that one?
Speaker 5: That one doesn't That one seems calm, tame, Yeah, like
like the whole story's not there.
Speaker 4: Right exactly, Like there might have been some substances involved.
Speaker 5: Maybe, Oh no, not at all. Yes, I agree with you,
and you never know, but you know it's like that
would be more effectively that kind of thing.
Speaker 4: Yeah, exactly. So here's another one, don This is It
happened to me in first grade. Class is over and
I remember walking deliberately to the bus stop pickup area.
Only when I got there, there were no buses, There
were no kids, no teachers, just an empty parking lot.
I went back inside, where my teacher found me and
called my mom. I've always wondered if I'm repressing some
horrible event. That is curious.
Speaker 3: Huh.
Speaker 4: So something may have happened on his way out that
he just blocked the whole day like no, it sounds
like it was the end of end of school day,
and he went out to catch his bus and by
the time he actually made it out there, everybody was
gone already. So he went back in the school and
his teacher was still there like they the teachers and
staff hadn't quite gone home yet. Wow, is what I'm
taking from this. But for some reason he doesn't recall
or she doesn't recall anything else except leaving to go
to get catch the bus, getting out there and nothing
was there.
Speaker 5: That's that's kind of creepy, that is, yeah, because that's
that's a good fifteen minutes of activity.
Speaker 4: Right yeh, at the very least, probably more like a
half hour, you know. Yeah, very weird. Okay. I think
that's profound, and that may be a very natural kind
of you know, time slip that we've been talking about
every once in a while too. I don't think that
that one correlates with any kind of abduction, but you
never know. I guess, you know, what are they capable of?
I don't know.
Speaker 5: Maybe it's time traveled.
Speaker 4: That's what I'm thinking. That's what I think. It's just
a time slip. Feel like somehow, some way they just
took a step different from everyone else and ended up
in a split timeline there ahead of everybody else, right,
And so she had to go back and get the teacher,
or he had to go back to get a teacher,
and that teacher called to mom to come pick him up.
So yeah, very strange, all right. The next one is
I decided to take an impromptu weekend trip for my
son's birthday. Well, he lives in Wichitah and I lived
in Atlanta. The flights were just too expensive, so I
decided to drive. And this is a seventeen hour drive
each way without including stops, and I made it in
time for his birthday, but had to drive back home
a few hours later. After about four hours of driving,
it was eight am, and I remember distinctly checking the time,
and the next thing I remember is glancing back down
at the clock and it being two pm. The scariest
moment of my life. I panicked like I just slept
through work, but instead I had slept through about six
hours of driving. Wow. So I wonder if the was
the car actually displaced by six hours of driving too,
you know what I mean? Or did this person just
kind of freeze in time for six hours and then
have a whole six hours more to go.
Speaker 5: That's that's a good question.
Speaker 4: I don't know.
Speaker 5: I don't know how to Yeah.
Speaker 4: See, that's that's one. Yeah, me either. And that's the
hard part about stories like this is we can we
can certainly find things to discuss ladies and gentlemen, but
there's no ability to ask those questions, you know. And
that's what's occurring to me, is like, well, did they
actually like lose that six hours and they traveled as
if they'd been driving the whole time, or did they
kind of sit still and just blank out for six
hours of a period.
Speaker 5: Hmm. That is curious, you know though, you know, that's
kind of if if there wasn't so much so, if
you think about the Betty and Barney Hill thing, that's
pretty much what would have happened had they the they
not had they blocked the memories properly, they would have
remembered car trouble, pulling over to the side of the road,
and then and then they wouldn't remember anything else other
than say, you know, a policeman pulling up and helping them,
or you know, eventually the car started and they didn't
know why. And so that's the way abductions are supposed
to work, apparently, you know, because because the agreement supposedly
with the Greata Treaty and all, is that we aren't
supposed to remember those kinds of details. We're supposed to
just car trouble, pulled over, don't really know what happened,
It started back up, we went on our way. That's
the way it's supposed to be, according to what I
understand of the Greata Treaty. Right, So there you go.
Speaker 4: No, what occurs to me is, you know, what if
there's just a fragment of the population that it doesn't
work as well on. But maybe they're maybe they're abducting
the hell out of people, like they're doing it all
the time everywhere, and you know, millions and millions and
millions of people are actually being abducted, but only a
small percentage can kind of break through that memory block
and see that something weird happen.
Speaker 5: Well, you know, that's a good possibility. I mean, there
are people that supposedly aren't supposedly aren't susceptible to hypnotism. Yeah,
so I wonder if that might.
Speaker 4: Have it's not weird how we share a brain.
Speaker 5: It's weird. It's scary as hell.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I know what you're going to say before you
say it. That's all long we've been together, ladies and gentlemen.
We are connected. We have like a mental umbilical cord
connected between us.
Speaker 5: So now you're just making it creepy.
Speaker 4: Well, you know that's how much I love you, all right,
So let's go to another one.
Speaker 6: The heir.
Speaker 4: It says, I was exhausted after being rotated closing opening
every day for two weeks, and I got in my
car after a particularly long day, started it up and
waited for to worm up. And the next thing I
was aware of was sitting at my parents' driveway. It
was about I was about twenty at the time and
had just broken up with a real jerk and moved
back with the car off, but I was still buckled
in my job was twelve miles straight shot on the
freeway from home. That's crazy, it says, I have no
idea how I drove myself home safely because I have
zero memory of it. Wow, now that's different, you know,
Is that just is that just a stress thing, like
a stress trigger? Just kind of shut down for a while.
Speaker 5: You know, I think in this case it's it's more
of road hypnotism because we've talked to Brooks about it
before as well Zagnew And you know, there are certain
times of states that we can get into without really
thinking about it, and our body goes on automatic. Like
washing dishes. You know, you can wash dishes and not
really think about what you're doing because you've done it
for so long. You just know what you're doing and
that your mind can be doing other things. You know.
Driving is one of those things they say it takes
about twenty days from the time you move from one
house to another to you know, get into that routine
of driving home and driving to work and driving to
those regular spots. At a point you just go on automatic.
Your awareness is fine, but your brain is wandering, and
once you see something then you react to it. Like
out here the other day, I was driving down the
road and all of a sudden, there's a deer in
the middle of the road. Well, I remember seeing the
deer and I remember stopping, but I don't remember turning
coming up the hill and getting into that area. But
I was on automatic. Yeah, twelve mile drive on automatic
is kind of weird, though, because you would have some
kind of I would think you would have some kind
of memory of where you are, you know, looking for
cues about oh, I'm only this far away or I'm
at this place right, so I know I'm only five
minutes from home or two minutes to the turn whatever that.
Speaker 4: Is, right, Yeah, And this sounds like this person has
made this journey enough that it was nearly just muscle memory,
you know, It's like the same repetition over and over
that it really required a lot less of that conscious thought.
But the weird part for this person is it's not
that they weren't really paying attention to the road. It's
that they don't remember anything. It's like they just went
totally on autopilot, you know, not even like preoccupying thoughts,
Like I can be driving and thinking about things and think,
oh geez, I just I've already gone ten miles. But
this person just like blanked and click and boom. They
were in a whole different place. So it is it
is different. But you know, I guess everybody handles stress
in a unique way, I suppose. And of course a
breakup is like double tough. That's that's hard, hard stuff.
So I don't know. I think it's quite interesting though.
Got another one here says I was a kid. My
family and I were staying at a hotel room. We
just finished watching The Land Before Time, and everyone had
fallen asleep, but I stayed up because I wanted to
watch the snow on the TV for no reason. Okay, wow,
one minute I was sitting in front of the TV
watching the snow while everyone else was asleep. The next moment,
I was still sat in front of the TV with
eyes wide open. Only it was morning and everyone was
waking up. I felt like I had slept all night,
but I don't think I even closed my eyes. I
can only assume I hypnotize myself. Yeah, And you know,
I did study hypnosis for a while, just a curiosity
because I wanted to understand that phenomena. And I know
we can self hypnotize ourselves. In fact, daydreams are a
form of self self hypnosis, right yep, So I mean
it happens to us. And actually, you know the road
thing that you were talking about, that's a form of
self hypnosis as well. And you called it road hypnosis,
and that's a perfect name for it. You know, we
are able to get into that state and it's just
a relaxed state. It's not that anything really weird or
hokey's going on. It's just strangeness, you know.
Speaker 5: You know, there are different types of states that we
can put ourselves into, meditative states, just relaxation states, stress free,
straight states, and Paisley's covered this on one of her
podcasts one time. One of them is just this relaxation
where you just breathe and you can do this anywhere.
Breathe in, breathe out, you know, just let your mind go.
You can do it while you're driving, you can do
it while you're sitting in a chair, and you may
very well lose time doing this because you're not conscious.
You're you're letting your consciousness go and letting you know,
and connecting with whatever's out there, you know what I mean.
Speaker 4: I do. Yeah, I think that. Yeah, that's really true.
There are The meditative state would be another weird time anomaly.
I'm sure it could be perceived as one. So that's
a good point as well. Lots of natural states we
have available to us, but we don't go into them much,
you know, and maybe that's what makes them weird for
some people is that they just don't go into that
meditative state. They don't meditate, and so when it happens naturally,
they're probably like, what the hell just happened? Oh my god?
Speaker 5: Exactly, you know. And some people can do it naturally.
They just they just do it so naturally that they
don't even notice they're doing it. And and I think
that's very very plausible, very plausible explanation of how we
might lose time through no real paranormal circumstance. It's very
in a very natural, in a very natural way, self hypnosis,
self meditation, you know, knowing how to do these things naturally.
So there you go.
Speaker 4: So there you go. That's it.
Speaker 5: Not to say there's not a real time slits or
enough obviously.
Speaker 4: No, it's just correct me. If Louise said that, it's
like that final are you hungry? Here's some student? There
you go. That's all you're getting, all right? I got
another one here and it says, went out of my
dorm at two pm to go buy some food, returned
at nine pm, freezing with wet hair, not feeling my
toes or fingers, because apparently there was a hail, a
hal h ai L and I went out without or gloves.
I had a bunch of random stuff in my backpack
that I assume I bought, like a pair of cheap headphones,
a picture frame, and drying rack clips. And I also
had an ice cream paper cup which indicates that I
ate ice cream and negative fifteen degrees celsius outside, and
an empty cup of ice coffee. So this person was
like doing all the wrong things. My boyfriend freaked the
hell out because I told him I had no idea
where I was and what I was doing. Surprisingly, I
didn't get sick, just a lot creeped out. That is strange.
They go in the cold, there's a hailstorm. This person's
eating ice cream and iced tea, and it's like they're
doing all the wrong things. That is strange. Huh.
Speaker 5: There's no reason, no rhyme, or reason to anything people
do when I you know, And another thing I think
is associated with this is that we forget our our
self imposed mores. We forget that we are on a diet,
We forget that, you know, we don't eat this kind
of thing. The body does what the body does. There
is that you know when you're when you're in that
kind of a state. I think. I think, you know,
like I said, nature takes over and does what your
body needs it to do.
Speaker 4: Sometimes you need ice cream. Sometimes there is just a
reason to have ice cream. And it can be you
know that you're walking in a hailstorm. Apparently, right, that's
what I that's what I put together. I get out
in a good snowstorm. Nothing like ice cream. Settle made down.
That's strange, very strange.
Speaker 5: Say it made sense.
Speaker 4: I just said, you know what I'm saying, it's just weirdness,
you know, And maybe it's just the subconscious state that
that you know, people are and and and gentlemen, we're
not debunking these at all. I mean, honestly, there these
are actual supposed accounts people have had. But the point
is is that are there natural explanations for that or
could there be? And I think that it's incumbent upon
us to at least address those things, because yeah, we
could sit and go, oh yeah, that's paranormal, that's paranormal
path that's paranormal. But I think part of the paranormal
field requires some critical thinking, and I think sometimes that
gets thrown to the wayside on some of these shows
that people are just like, well, if it's on the show,
it's paranormal. And I don't think we're We're not. We're
not doing much for the community if we just you know,
sign off on everything being paranormal. Now, could they be?
Absolutely every one of these stories could for sure be paranormal,
But I think it at least has to be has
to be compared or weighed against some potentially natural sequence
of events that could duplicate these kind of things. But
I do, like I said before, I have experienced a
time slip, but it was also you know, a space
slip too. I was just suddenly in a different place.
I still can't explain it. I was definitely not in
a relaxed state at all when it happened to me.
I was absolutely on needles and pins because I was driving.
I had one of my children with me in the car,
and so I was just like, you know, I wouldn't
say it was panic, but I was just acutely aware
of every moment and everything I was doing, because you
need to be. You can't have any distraction when you're
driving in treacherous conditions. Now, the fact that I skipped
all the treacherous conditions and the treacherous. Part of road
to me was nothing short of miraculous, and that may
very well be for these people too. But we're just
talking about ideas. That's the portal. Is always going to
be a discussion. And you know that we're not that
we're skeptical. We're just offering alternative narratives that may or
may not explain what happened. So take it or leave it.
That's how we roll, That's how I roll. Well, there
you go, there you have it, all right, So here's
another one, and then I think we'll probably take a
break after this one. Don And says I worked night
shift at a warehouse, and there were several days, usually
around three am or so, when I would kind of
regeem awareness, What is this in my hand? Where did
it come from? Where am I supposed to put it?
How long have I been sleepwalking through work? How many
mistakes have I made? Would happen maybe once a week
every other week. If I loaded up on caffeine energy
shots and I've moved through buildings and can stay awake
my whole shift, these days could have been worse. Honestly,
I'm genuinely surprised that this never caused a bigger problem
than mildly freaking me out, considering I worked around heavy
machinery and conveyor belts a lot. Wow, now that sounds
like a really peculiar awareness. Like now, let me ask you,
don have you ever sperience this? And this is this
is really not the topic that we're discussing, but it
does it does kind of seem to maybe apply. And
that is, have you ever been doing something that you've
done a million times and suddenly had that experience like
what am I doing? Why am I doing this?
Speaker 5: Right?
Speaker 4: Where does this go? What is this for? You know,
It's like you're looking at it like from an alien perspective,
and suddenly you don't recognize anything for just like a
fraction of a second maybe or maybe a few seconds,
and then all of a sudden it just kicks back in.
It's like, well, that was weird. I know what all
this stuff is. I know what I'm doing, you know,
but have you ever had that experience?
Speaker 5: You know? I have. I remember having the experience, but
I don't remember exactly what I was doing. I remember
it was so odd that, you know, I remember standing
there and something happened and going I've never done this
before jamavou something, you know, the feeling of never having
had it happened before. Oh okay, instead of a daja
you right and uh and then all of a sudden
it just comes falling back. It's like, well, I do
this every day. You know, I've done this several times.
You know. It is kind of interesting to think that way,
that all of a sudden you have no memory, like
you've just been born into this body doing these weird things.
Speaker 4: That's a good way to put it. Yeah, exactly, like.
Speaker 5: It has happened to me, and it's it's sometimes I remember,
I remember it taken me by such surprise that it
actually scared me. Yes, I wish I could remember the situation.
Maybe that's part of the problem because I can't remember
the exact situation, but it was, it was disconcerting. Yeah,
it was. It was odd.
Speaker 4: So i've I've I can tell you one place that
I and it's and it's kind of a fractional experience.
But which is a fraction of this weirdness is when
when I'm reading words and it'll be just like a
mundane word like and and all of a sudden I'll
look at it and go, why does that say, and
why is that? Why is that? What the sounds look like? Why?
Why did why was that determined? You know? And it's like,
all of a sudden, it's like, what the hell am
I thinking that for? That's weird, you know, just like
all of a sudden, I wasn't aware of the language
and why it existed that way or whatever. And I
don't know how else to explain it. But ladies and gentlemen,
we're going to take a break quick, so don't go away.
We're going to continue with more of these amazing and
peculiar slips of time here on the Paranormal Portal, So
don't go away. Hey guys, Brent Thomas here the Paranormal
Portal Podcast. We just wanted to take a moment to
introduce you to the Paranormal Portal store. We've got T shirts, swooties, leggings, stickers, mugs,
you name it, you might find it over there. So
head on over to t spring dot com, slash stores, slash, Paranormal,
dash Portal and YouTube. Can help fund the Paranormal Portal Podcast.
Thank you so much for all that you do, and
thank you for being a part of our Paranormal Portal family.
All right, ladies and gentlemen, we're back. I am joined
by my good friend and co host Don Longbeard, and
we are burning the night away or the episode away,
talking about odd time slips. And these may or may
not be tied with, you know, extraterrestrial visitation or abduction.
We don't know. But these are just accounts of people
having experienced these odd slips in time and trying to
make sense of it all. So what do you think
of it? So far? Done? Pretty wild?
Speaker 5: You know there are yes. The answer is yes. It's
always fun to talk about these things because it's like
people are just waking up and these odd things happen,
or they remember that happening in a half conscious state, right,
And it's always it's always interesting to hear how they
felt or what the experience was from that disconnected play.
Interesting to listen to.
Speaker 4: Very much, so very much. So it's just curious. I
don't know. I find this stuff absolutely amazing in that
it seems to have of several potential ramifications or causations,
you know, and it's hard to know which. But okay,
So continuing on this, one says I was on a
trans atlantic flight, got into a good conversation with a
seat mate and had several glasses of wine, and then
about four hours from the destination, we both decided to
get some sleep, but I was still animated from the discussion,
so took a sleeping pill. On landing, the flight attendant
woke me up and I exited, went to baggage claim,
was picked up by my friend, went to her house,
and then crashed on the sofa. Several hours later, I
awoke and could remember nothing of the landing, getting off
the plane, going to the baggage claim, and immigration, meeting
my friend, the drive to her place, our conversation, nothing
at all. A complete blackout, complete memory loss, and no
telling what I did or said during that time. They
mean when they say on the pill bottom do not
take with alcohol, Well, that's that's pretty self explanatory as well.
I mean, if you mix alcohol with the sleeping pill,
you're kind of asking for all kinds of slips.
Speaker 5: Yeah, absolutely there is. There is one time something like
that happened to me. It had to do with sake.
But and so I went to I went to take
an ibuprofen. We had been drinking saki, my brother and
I and I accidentally took a flexile. Oh god, So
I literally I was watching X Files, uh huh, and
my brain shut off and I woke up in my
bed the next morning about ten o'clock in the morning,
so it's like twelve hours later.
Speaker 4: Oh jeez.
Speaker 5: I have no memory of finishing the episode of X Files,
talking with my brother, going to bed anything. I don't
remember how I got him bed, nothing, So I don't
find that. Yeah, I find that self induced.
Speaker 4: Yeah exactly, that's a self induced time slips. That's a
good way to put it.
Speaker 5: And just as a side note, I've never done that
since that's one of those scary things where you wake
up and you're like, what the hell? Yeah, O kidding,
what kind of a good time did I not have?
Speaker 4: Hope? I had fun. Yeah, that is pretty self explanatory, though. Yeah,
that's a tough one and it can be dangerous too,
so you know, definitely, ladies and gentlemen, make sure you
know what you're taking. If you're imbibing in some spirits,
be careful.
Speaker 5: Yeah, make sure what spirits you're imbibed as well.
Speaker 4: So this one is it wasn't related to that kind
of combination of things, but I had a professor who
lost several hours because of exhaustion. You remember getting in
cab at the airport at whatever time, and about seven
hours later woke up in his hotel room, sprawled on
the bed, still wearing his overcoat and his briefcase still
in his hand hanging over the edge of the bed,
and he checked in had gotten to his room in
some weird sleep state. Wow, that's kind of cool. I
guess that's the stuff you don't mind missing. It's like
being a baby again, like someone else will take care
of this. That's like the mental autopilot.
Speaker 5: Weld.
Speaker 4: Then I got a cough mark this all right, says
next one says, I have PTSD, And this happens a lot,
just flashbacks and memories. I get caught in and I
can't escape. I snap out of it sometimes minutes or
hours later. Had had full text conversation whilst in the
middle of it that I just don't remember. And so
that's a stress induced So some of these ladies and
gentlemen are just you know, very natural causes. Some of
them are medicinally caused. Not all of them are paranormal.
But you know, it's good to I guess it's good
to keep in mind that there are causations, you know,
So for instance, don let's say let's say you're on
some medicine and you you take it earlier in the
day and then later on you're gonna throw back one
with your friends or whatever, and then have a time slip. Well,
I would say that there's still some kind of interaction
going on, especially with you know, regimens of medicines that
build up in your bloodstream over a period of time.
It doesn't matter how much time has gone by since
you took your last dose, because you have this constant
baseline of that in your system, and so introducing alcohol
at any time could cause this kind of phenomena.
Speaker 5: Absolutely, you know. That's there is a lot of medications,
as you said, that take a while to kick in
a period of days or or even weeks. So so
you get to that baseline as you said, exactly that,
which means that it's going to take days or weeks
to even get out of your system, sure to stop
taking it. So during that time, it's probably not a
good idea to well, as you said, you know, read
the warning labels.
Speaker 4: Pay attention to those contraindications. They will probably save you
a lot of grief. All right, so let's get to
the next one here, and that says, huh oh, jeez,
this is terrible. I you know, this one probably won't
make the cut ether, but it says I got drugged
and robbed on an international trip. Dude in the bar
started chatting me up, and I got into the bathroom,
left my drink unattended. Next thing I know, about an
hour later, I'm disoriented and standing outside the bar and
my stuff is all gone. All in all, was still
a fun trip. Never Change Berlin. So I don't that
belongs or not, but they chose to include it, so
so did I. M. Here's another one. A guy was
taking his driver's license examine. They were approaching the first
stop sign. He remembers preparing himself for what to do
as it was a four way stop. The next thing
he remembers is his driving instructor saying did we pass
that stop sign? Followed by him looking in his rearview
mirror to see it already behind him. So, now that's
very interesting. Don both people experienced that slip?
Speaker 5: Yeah, I'm thinking because they had a mutual It wasn't like, oh,
you're going to miss a stop sign. It was they
just both asked the same question. Right, I don't know
what that could.
Speaker 4: Be, right, Well, that to me would be an absolute
time slip, but that seems to be an environmental one. Right.
Speaker 5: Well, it may just be an attentive driving by both
of them.
Speaker 4: Yeah, But I mean, if you look at it, what
are the odds that the instructor is also going to
be spacing out?
Speaker 5: And you would think that the instructor's probably driven that
road a few million times and knows exactly where that
sign is.
Speaker 4: Right, Yeah, because they have pretty pre planned routes. For instance,
they do driving instruction in this town, and they always
come and do the parallel parking right in front of
my house, and I'm always like, ooh, so you know,
I know that they have this already pre arranged, so
it's not like there should be any surprises on their journey.
So here's another one. I had n urgent cesarean and
I remember being in the operating theater and my baby
being whisked away to the NICU. And the next memory
is being in a room with my husband and he's
about ready to head home, but he got me some snacks.
Apparently I've missed five or so hours of my life
in the recovery room after surgery, and I was having
full on conversations with everybody that entered the room, but
I can't remember any of it. I've asked my husband
what I would talk about and he said everything whatever
that means. I don't even remember what the recovery room
looked like. But there again, that's got to be from anesthesia.
That's an anesthesia kind of issue. Right. We don't know
that she was fully conscious or was she sedated during that,
but you know that's that's pharmacology there, that's not paranormal, right.
Speaker 5: And that's what pharmacology is for. So you know, it's
to put you out so you don't have memory of
these things. How many times have we gotten on Facebook
or YouTube and watched I just picked my son up
from a rook canal, you know.
Speaker 4: Yeah, or the yeah, the kid in the recovery room
after a surgery and they saying all kinds of stupid crap.
Speaker 5: You're the best rapper in the world. Yeah, So I
it's that's what anesthesia is for.
Speaker 4: Yeah, and that is the side effects is memory loss? Okay,
this one's uh, I don't know what to say to
this one. This one's very short. It says, I don't
remember being six. I remember saying in my seventh birthday
that I literally just turned six and now I was seven.
It felt really weird. Well, that's just being kit I think,
just a kid not paying attention. Maybe huh.
Speaker 5: Well, now, don't forget, you know, I lost an entire
year of mine because remember was it was it this
year or the year before I told everybody I was
forty eight, I was actually my forty seven because I
had lost like my forty two. I think I was
forty two. I lost the entire year I can remember
in the sense of how old am I?
Speaker 4: Right? Huh, that is weird. I guess I do vaguely
remember that. And ladies and gentlemen, these we are not
making funny any of these stories. These are not stories
that were submitted to the portal. These are just things
we've found on the web to discuss with you. So
every once in a while, when we when we joke
around about some of these stories, we get we get
an email from someone saying, God, yeah, there's no way
to treat people's submissions when they send them into your show.
And honestly, we've never been disrespectful towards anybody that's sent
in their their experiences, nor would we ever. These are
just things that we've found, and I think that they
can be humorous and they can be fun. So as
we're chuckling through this, please don't take offense. These are
just things we've found on the interwebs that we wanted
to share with you guys. So just for the record,
you sound very muted.
Speaker 5: I wonder why that is.
Speaker 4: Oh, you're not close to your mic.
Speaker 5: Well, sometimes i'm you know, at my setup's a little different.
I need a desk mount mic, you know, a desk
stamp for my mic like I do have in the
in the studio with you.
Speaker 4: So, oh sure, sure, okay. So the next one is
early two thousands. I used to do a rural paper
route six days a week, one am to five am.
I never saw other humans or even animals often. My
route almost never changed, no new customers, no new areas added.
The monotony made all the days blore together. One night,
one am, I drove out to the depot where I
pick up the papers. Blinked and it was four thirty
am and I was on the road to my house
with no papers in the car. I remember very clearly
the radio skipping from an advertisement to the middle section
of an unwritten Lass song. My car lights were off too.
The thing that snapped me out of out of it
was that my rural street to my house has no
street lights. Most of the route had most of the
route had on the road, I imagine street lights, and
I was driving into total darkness. I was confused and
even called in the next day to make sure that
my papers got delivered, and they did. And I think
the level of boringness just made me go into a
mindless trance. I can imagine. That's strange.
Speaker 5: That's a perfect example of you know, us doing something
so often that we just go on autopilot.
Speaker 4: And right. So there's one more in this list that
I want to cover, and it just says walking down
the hall at work, blink, and I'm sitting in a
chair at the other end of the hall with a
nurse asking me if I'm okay, that's the whole story.
Speaker 5: Well, that's obviously they passed out or something happened, you know,
they lost consciousness.
Speaker 4: Yeah, that happens, But I don't know if the nurse
pulled them into the chair or if they just had
a weird look on their face when they sat down,
very very very strange. I don't know, ladies and gentlemen.
I don't always pretend to know what the hell's going
on in the paranormal worlds. But I know that we
all experience this stuff to some degree, or at least
I really believe we do. I don't think that. I
think that for most people done. I think they probably
experience this stuff, but they just they just write it off. Well,
I was just must not have been paying attention. You know.
It's it's kind of hanging onto the paradigm thing, you know, right, Yeah,
because once you start acknowledging that that the paranormal is
happening to you, if you do and indeed acknowledge it,
then that changes everything.
Speaker 5: I agree, because how many times have we talked to
somebody this thing's never happened to me, and then one
time it happened, and now it happens all the time.
Speaker 4: So yeah, well that's my that's kind of my pet peeve.
I don't believe in ghosts, but this one time and
then they'll go into the most fantastic paranormal story ever,
and then they'll get back out of it and they'll
be like, yeah, so that's weird.
Speaker 5: Question. I don't believe any of this stuff can happen.
Speaker 4: Right, really really even though it happened, you know. And
that's the part that I mean, I can't chalk that
up to anything other than denial. That's just denial, right,
I don't know, that's what a to me anyway. It's
just like you've got to you've got to try not
to believe in something when something so profoundly happens to
you that you're willing to just shut the door on
even reason because you know, some of the explanations that
people come with to talk talk themselves out of a
paranormal experience are are more bizarre and crazy than just
saying I had a paranormal experience, you.
Speaker 5: Know, right exactly.
Speaker 4: Yeah, So I just think I think there's there's just
some odd stuff going on. And of course, you know,
it's what it's what we talk about, it's it's our
bread and butter here on the show. But I think
that I think that we really do live in an
incredibly dynamic universe that are that you know, I've said
this so many times on the show, but I mean it,
that reality is not just this hard wall, rigid structure.
It's fluid and it's changing, would you agree.
Speaker 5: I absolutely, absolutely. You never know what's going to be
around the next corner, unless, of course you're psychic and
see your own You don't see what's going to be
around the next corner. And that's what makes waking up
tomorrow interesting.
Speaker 4: It does. Life's an adventure. It is an adventure, ladies
and gentlemen, but it's one that we are thrilled to
be on with you all. We always love doing these
shows and we love that you guys are all a
part of them as well. We you know. I gotta say, though,
don For as long as we've been doing the shows,
and it's been years now, I really don't know much
more than I knew when I started. In fact, I
believe I know less now than I ever did. Because
once you go down these rabbit holes, you start seeing
all of the all of the things. All you come
up with the questions that you didn't know you needed before, right,
And it's just this incredibly odd journey of I don't know, exploration,
I guess, and there's no roadmap to it. You know,
nobody's got this mapped out, so it's still like the
one of the great last, one of the great last.
What's the word I'm looking for, terrains or adventures?
Speaker 5: Huh, yeah it is, it's it's it's the final frontier show.
Speaker 4: There we go. Yeah, there, that's a good one. It's
another frontier that we haven't yet, we haven't yet conquered,
and we have. But I again defer to Tesla's idea
that you know, once we start focusing on the non physical,
we'll make more progress in a decade than we have
an all combined history. And I'm probably bastardizing that quote
pretty good, but the concept is clear enough, even with
the way the way I explained it. It's like, you know,
once we start asking those questions and start finding those answers,
then we start really seeing how this all works. Right,
So the veil pierce in the veil. That's what we
do here, ladies and gentlemen. We're piercing veils. I feel
like I am done you soightly. All right, Well, I
think that's probably going to bring our journey to about
an end here. So ladies and gentlemen, thank you once
again for being a part of our adventure here in
the paranormal Portal. Thank you for all the kind words
