Speaker 1: This is the other side of midnight. They're running a
Speaker 1: strange program. You'll with Walter Sterling.
Speaker 2: Do Do Do Do Do Do Do Doo Sterling, Sterling, Sterling,
Speaker 2: He's more interesting than curling. He's on your radio every night.
Speaker 2: Walter Sterling, Sterling, Sterling. Walter Sterling is live on the
Speaker 2: other side of midnight. For all you midnight misfits, Sterling Sterling, Sterling.
Speaker 3: Your dial.
Speaker 2: You won't be twirling when Walter Sterling's on your radio.
Speaker 2: It's the other side of midnight with Eddie Dragon.
Speaker 4: Eddie Dragon, who's in New Mexico. And it's a privileged
Speaker 4: to have Edian because he's independently wealthy. He doesn't need
Speaker 4: to do this. He owns his own radio station. He
Speaker 4: doesn't need this to get any more attention. He has
Speaker 4: plenty of attention. And yet he travels to places like Utah,
Speaker 4: there's nothing there, and he goes to places like he
Speaker 4: lives in New Mexico. Moments moments from Jeffrey Epstein's Zoro
Speaker 4: Ranch oddly uninvestigated by our government. Eddie, how are you
Speaker 4: doing tonight, Walter.
Speaker 5: I'm fine and I'm enjoying the program. I just returned
Speaker 5: from Utah. There is a lot there. There is actually
Speaker 5: quite a bit going on in Solid Lake City.
Speaker 4: What's going on? What's going on?
Speaker 1: Did he?
Speaker 5: You know? I didn't think it was that big, but
Speaker 5: it's about sixty miles and I went from Hill Air
Speaker 5: Force Base where the Minuteman missiles are manufactured for our
Speaker 5: nation's defense.
Speaker 6: There.
Speaker 5: I have a friend who's a colonel there, top secret
Speaker 5: by the way, and it's just a fascinating place. The
Speaker 5: industry that they have, their defense industry. You know, obviously
Speaker 5: you know the LDS is there. That is the Latter
Speaker 5: day Saints. Do you know, Walter, that is also going
Speaker 5: to be a trillion dollar religious organization within the next
Speaker 5: five years. I thought that was just, you know, unfathomable.
Speaker 4: And well, they have tithing, you see that. That's where
Speaker 4: they're smart. Unlike the Catholics of the Episcopalians. They have tithing.
Speaker 4: You want to be a member of the Church of
Speaker 4: Ladder day States, you're going to give up twenty percent
Speaker 4: of your income?
Speaker 5: Is it twenty percent?
Speaker 7: Yes?
Speaker 5: Is it double double? I didn't realize that.
Speaker 4: You know, the Mormons, and you have to have a
Speaker 4: haircut like an Osmond. Your hair looks has to look
Speaker 4: like Donnie Osmond's.
Speaker 5: Interestingly enough, I saw the Donny and Marie Osmond's old
Speaker 5: stomping grounds in orem Utah and their old studio. Actually
Speaker 5: walked inside their old studio. Unbelievable. You know, they are
Speaker 5: sort of a force of entertainment nature from thee in
Speaker 5: these in the early eighties.
Speaker 4: But well, Donna Donnie was very successful and smart, and
Speaker 4: they were actually one of the few entertainment groups that
Speaker 4: raised their own stock that went public. You could buy
Speaker 4: stock in their company.
Speaker 5: I did not know that. That's that's also fascinating, And that's.
Speaker 4: How they bought That's how they built that studio. They
Speaker 4: were able to raise money through the markets.
Speaker 5: You know, I had a Mormon as a business partner
Speaker 5: when I did commercial real estate, and I found out,
Speaker 5: you know, they are fantastic business people. They really just know,
Speaker 5: very trustworthy, very but once you stop working with them
Speaker 5: the Mormon way of doing business, you find yourself on
Speaker 5: the outside. Also, it is also very unique about the
Speaker 5: Mormon religion. They also have a abnormally large share of
Speaker 5: employment within the Three Letter agencies, namely the CIA and
Speaker 5: the FBI in the United States. Mormons gravitate towards those
Speaker 5: types of jobs, believe.
Speaker 6: It or not.
Speaker 1: So well.
Speaker 4: They know how to dress.
Speaker 5: Or not dress. You won't find any of them having
Speaker 5: fancy watches or fancy shoes. They really pride themselves on
Speaker 5: having the six month food stuff basement, and they oftentimes
Speaker 5: brag about that, and they also brag about how much
Speaker 5: hew thrifty they are and how often they double coupon
Speaker 5: and grocery store coupon. They literally have contests about it.
Speaker 5: It's a fascinating place. In fact, the twenty thirty four
Speaker 5: Winter Olympics are going to be there. Walter and they
Speaker 5: happen to go to the number one ski resort on
Speaker 5: the other side. Took a gondolus at the top. Checked
Speaker 5: it out. Very fascinating in that everyone is just in
Speaker 5: love with, you know, nature. Everyone's hiking, everyone's biking. There's
Speaker 5: a little town just outside on the backside of the
Speaker 5: mountain called Huntsville and it's the quenest, cutest little town
Speaker 5: you ever did see. And yeah, there's a lot going
Speaker 5: on in the old Salt Lake City in that area.
Speaker 5: It is a truly breasttaking I want to say, it's
Speaker 5: one of the more beautif cities that I've seen Walter.
Speaker 5: So if you haven't been to Utah, it's not that
Speaker 5: there isn't anything there, it's just that you have not
Speaker 5: been there.
Speaker 4: Well, I've seen. I've been to Salt Lake City, and
Speaker 4: it's a spooky place. And it's partly I realize just
Speaker 4: now because of what you said, which is that they
Speaker 4: had no geographic challenges in building out the city. They
Speaker 4: didn't have to build a downtown and up. They could
Speaker 4: just keep spreading out and as a results, it's a
Speaker 4: sixteenth it's a sixty mile suburb.
Speaker 5: M Yeah, no, I think you've nailed it. I think
Speaker 5: that's exactly what I saw. I was there. It just
Speaker 5: keeps going and going and going, much like Phoenix, Arizona,
Speaker 5: where exactly also has a huge presence. It's just like, hey,
Speaker 5: we're just going to keep building it. Mexico City, by
Speaker 5: the way, internationally is a lot like that. However, they
Speaker 5: don't roll out the infrastructure before they do it. After
Speaker 5: last thing I'll say about Salt Lake City, I stayed
Speaker 5: in a hotel that was there, as you do, and
Speaker 5: there's abnormally large Mexican population in those hotels because so
Speaker 5: much construction. There's so much construction, they're all there, and
Speaker 5: they're building out what continues to be Salt Lake City.
Speaker 5: It's a very by the way, one of the top
Speaker 5: three states in terms of quality of life, and I
Speaker 5: think Salt Lake is at the very top of cities
Speaker 5: over you know, one million about one point one point
Speaker 5: nine million in the miny the metropolitan statistical er.
Speaker 4: Thank you for this travelogue. Now what do you have
Speaker 4: to report? What? What updates do you have for us?
Speaker 5: Well, I happen to be catching Netflix and the Idaho murders,
Speaker 5: and you have been getting me to watch more Netflix,
Speaker 5: and it's something that we do. You know, you you've
Speaker 5: you've passed us the Midnight Misfits with going out and
Speaker 5: entertaining ourselves with your recommendations. But I couldn't help but
Speaker 5: get away to the Idaho murders. That's recent. It's fascinating,
Speaker 5: and you know, Brian Koberger basically was taken out because
Speaker 5: of a q kip that the FBI went rummaging through
Speaker 5: once they made the determination off of a small, slight
Speaker 5: thing off of that night sheet. And I got to
Speaker 5: thinking about the unsolved mysteries and the unsolved murderers here
Speaker 5: in New Mexico. But more than that there's a big
Speaker 5: one in New York. That's right Rochester. Ten years ago, Walter,
Speaker 5: four people murdered a house deliberately set on fire, and
Speaker 5: a decade later, the families of Michael Royal, Jennifer Leisure,
Speaker 5: Lechelle Powell, and Michael Adams are still asking the same question,
Speaker 5: who did it and why? So this is in Rochester's
Speaker 5: New York. Okay, it's the most horrifying unsolved homicide case
Speaker 5: in New York, the Leyton Avenue quadruple murder. And it
Speaker 5: was not simply a fire. It was a crime scene
Speaker 5: that investigators say was deliberately burned after four human beings
Speaker 5: were bound and killed in And even now with this
Speaker 5: now renewed investigative activity that they have, there have been
Speaker 5: no arrests, no public naming of suspects, no resolution for
Speaker 5: the people left behind. Back in twenty sixteen, in January,
Speaker 5: firefighters responded to a burning home on Leyton Avenue. What
Speaker 5: they discovered in the attic transformed a fire call into
Speaker 5: a major crimes nightmare for Rochester police. Four victims found dead.
Speaker 5: Michael Royal twenty eight years old, Jennifer Leisure twenty nine,
Speaker 5: Lachelle Powell, twenty two, forty five year old Michael Adams
Speaker 5: now Rochester. Investigators said the victim's wrists and ankles were bound.
Speaker 5: All four had been shot in the head. The house
Speaker 5: set ablaze, so reporting through the years has provided a
Speaker 5: very groom picture about this. No leads nothing. The victims
Speaker 5: had been bound with duct tape. News ten, NBC and
Speaker 5: Rochester reported that their mouths had been covered as well.
Speaker 5: Mary Royal's mother returned to the home, discovered the fire,
Speaker 5: then called nine to one one. Then firefighters found all
Speaker 5: four victims. Guess where in the attic they had time
Speaker 5: the family dog, Jack's dad as well. The victims were
Speaker 5: not abstractions in a police file. Royle was Mary Royal
Speaker 5: Stun who was reportedly working for was becoming a dental hygienist.
Speaker 5: Jennifer Leger was his fiance. Powell was remembered, you know,
Speaker 5: by her mother Glover as someone who would give you
Speaker 5: the shirt, offer back good people, right. And then Michael
Speaker 5: Adams is a forty five year old Rochester residence whose
Speaker 5: life ended alongside the other three. Now a vehicle was
Speaker 5: held shortly right after those killings, and Rochester has been
Speaker 5: mourning those lives for the last ten years and the
Speaker 5: largest single act of unsolved violence in New York currently.
Speaker 5: Give me a question, is obvious? Was this a targeted attack?
Speaker 5: Investigators have never identified the intended target if there was
Speaker 5: only one. Se nineteen police investigator John Brennan said detectives
Speaker 5: did not know the motive and did not know for
Speaker 5: certain which victim if anyone individual was the target. They
Speaker 5: can't find any background on what would have driven. So
Speaker 5: by that point the investigators have pursued already hundreds of
Speaker 5: leads without finding a single connection that produced an arrestable suspect.
Speaker 5: And that detail is really important because as I was
Speaker 5: looking at the coburger that got solved, but this isn't
Speaker 5: solved ten years later. The responsible standard in all of
Speaker 5: this is to separate how the law enforcement has stated
Speaker 5: versus what people are speculating about, and people don't have
Speaker 5: anything to speculate on. The public facts are very evident.
Speaker 5: Four people killed inside that residence, bound shot back of
Speaker 5: the head, and a fire used to kind of create
Speaker 5: a cover. No motive, so that winter weather in January
Speaker 5: also worked against the investigators. At the time, the local
Speaker 5: Democrat Chronicle reported that the conditions meant few people were
Speaker 5: outside to even notice any of the activity. There's no
Speaker 5: third party witnesses, unfamiliar vehicles, not noted people coming and going,
Speaker 5: they said. It is said that, based on the fact
Speaker 5: that they were in the attict, they had to be
Speaker 5: in there doing this murder for at least a couple
Speaker 5: of hours. The Texas believe that the perpetrators had spent
Speaker 5: several hours in fact inside that house. They suggested the planning,
Speaker 5: control of the scene, and their level of confidence. Raising
Speaker 5: confidence made the lack of public break through all the
Speaker 5: more unsettling. So there's a reward in all of this.
Speaker 5: The only fifteen thousand dollars at app has come forward.
Speaker 5: But it's worth remembering what time does to these cold cases.
Speaker 5: The relationships have changed, the loyalties have change, And ten
Speaker 5: years later New York's biggest unsolved mass murder, that is
Speaker 5: the Latent Avenue murders. And if you know anything about,
Speaker 5: have any information, have any ideas, you could report it
Speaker 5: to the ratchet or police five five seventy one fifty seven.
Speaker 5: I'm just getting into this, Walter. I didn't know this
Speaker 5: even existed, but I'm looking at unsolved murders in different places.
Speaker 5: We have one I'll cover that tomorrow from here in
Speaker 5: New Mexico.
Speaker 4: I think that's a video murder. I think that's an
Speaker 4: excellent course for you to pursue our unsolved murders. Those
Speaker 4: are the most dramatic and terrifying mysteries of our time.
Speaker 4: Eddie Dragon, thank you very much for being on the
Speaker 4: other side of midnight with Walter Sterling. It's eighteen past
Speaker 4: the hour, eighteen past the hour, the.
Speaker 1: Other side of midnight with Walter Sterling.
Speaker 8: It's the other side of midnight, and with Walter Sterling
Speaker 8: on the other side.
Speaker 9: When you go to a gentleman's club, the girls have
Speaker 9: one job. It's basically to make you feel infatuated, lustful
Speaker 9: after them, if not love and desiree Nicole Hood, She's
Speaker 9: picked it up pretty quick. She's twenty years old, understands
Speaker 9: how to do that. She left with one of the
Speaker 9: patrons to go to a hotel in beautiful Virginia Gardens
Speaker 9: and she served him a drink at the hotel. You know, again,
Speaker 9: just showing some lady stuff there, charming the pants literally
Speaker 9: off of this feller. After drinking, the man said he
Speaker 9: felt disoriented, dizzy, and unable to fully recall the subsequent events.
Speaker 9: At least that's what he's saying to his wife. And
Speaker 9: while this guy was allegedly incapacitated in the Bill Cosby
Speaker 9: sort of way, he woke up and his fourteen thousand
Speaker 9: dollars Rolex Oyster perpetual watch gone. And they found it
Speaker 9: with Desiree Nicole Hood. Now how they find it with her?
Speaker 9: How they even find out who she was? She posted
Speaker 9: on social media. That's what they do. And yeah, so
Speaker 9: she's been arrested and likely going to be going to
Speaker 9: jail for some time. And yeah, lab tests showed the
Speaker 9: victim tested positive with benzo diazepines, which are depressants also
Speaker 9: known as Benzo's. They knock you out, those benzos do. Yeah,
Speaker 9: if you're tired of night you just can't get sleep,
Speaker 9: and you're just like you're a raccoon at three am,
Speaker 9: take a Benzone. They'll knock you out. Knock you out
Speaker 9: real good. Okay, I get it. Here's a guy, maybe
Speaker 9: a little lonely away from the ball and chain the
Speaker 9: battle axe at home, and he thought that maybe a
Speaker 9: rendezvous with an exotic dancer would be a wonderful way
Speaker 9: to celebrate his freedom away from his home situation. Well,
Speaker 9: now the wife knows, because you know, it's a crime.
Speaker 9: He lost a fourteen thousand dollars watch, which probably was
Speaker 9: a gift to him from her using his American Express.
Speaker 9: If you go to a gentleman's club, do not wear
Speaker 9: high end jewelry. Look like a regular guy. You can
Speaker 9: wear a sports coach something like that, but yeah, look regular.
Speaker 9: If you're gonna spend time alone with an exotic dancer,
Speaker 9: don't take a drink from her. If the dancer hands
Speaker 9: you up, fill the tag or something like that. No,
Speaker 9: you don't do that. You don't do that at all.
Speaker 9: Learn from this nameless, phaseless soon to be divorced man.
Speaker 9: Don't do it.
Speaker 1: It's a bad idea.
Speaker 9: From the champagne room. Not on a Benzo. I'm Villa
Speaker 9: Wols Strivers on the loose, Walter Sterling, the other side
Speaker 9: of midnight. Red Apple Audio Network come to the media call.
Speaker 1: Eight hundred eight four, eight ninety June.
Speaker 4: Now look how lucky you are here? We are It's
Speaker 4: just us. I'm a few inchest from the microphone, you're
Speaker 4: a few inches from that speaker. It's it's just us.
Speaker 4: The beauty of being awake at this time is we
Speaker 4: get to celebrate being introverts. We get to celebrate being
Speaker 4: alone because most people around us are alone. We don't
Speaker 4: have to appear to fit in. There's nothing worse than
Speaker 4: having to fit in. My friend, Susan Anderson, Mark Zaza,
Speaker 4: Drew Simmles, Michael Leon, Michael, I'm so proud of you
Speaker 4: you graduated. Roger Sabo, Joel Rios, Roberta de Conte, Martin Dyer's,
Speaker 4: Martin Dice, Martin Dice Hi and John Tweeworgi. You are
Speaker 4: some of the midnight misfits we get to spend time
Speaker 4: with tonight. Thank you for being here. Barry Glick, Barry,
Speaker 4: you send me the best stuff, the best photographs. Barry Glick,
Speaker 4: Solid Midnight Misfit. Congratulate relations, Bill Buchanan, Charles Dempsey. If
Speaker 4: you want to become a midnight Misfit, it's easy either.
Speaker 4: Go to the website Walter sterlingshow dot com click Midnight Misfit.
Speaker 4: You will get a membership card. It'll explain to you
Speaker 4: what it means to be a misfit, what you have
Speaker 4: to do, what your obligations are. You have to eat
Speaker 4: corn beef, you have to hate team spirit. You don't
Speaker 4: want anybody to say I believe in team players. I
Speaker 4: never want to hear that phrase, just like I never
Speaker 4: want to hear the phrase going forward anytime in my career.
Speaker 4: If somebody has said to me, well, now going forward,
Speaker 4: nothing good comes after that. Right, there are certain sign
Speaker 4: posts that are trouble and now going forward we're going
Speaker 4: to do. Oh no, no, no, no no. You might
Speaker 4: as well not listen after that, because your career is over.
Speaker 4: If they're saying going forward to you, oh God, or
Speaker 4: it didn't work out, or we're going to make some changes. Really,
Speaker 4: you're going to put up new drapes. You're going to
Speaker 4: paint the walls of better color. That's what you're talking about, idiots.
Speaker 4: Now it's the best thing to be working now. Firehouse, auditorium,
Speaker 4: the train station, the airport. This is when these facilities
Speaker 4: are packed. This is our busiest time of day. Walmarts,
Speaker 4: the walmarts, the cost goes. This is the busiest time
Speaker 4: of day. This is when the shelves get stocked, when
Speaker 4: the storerooms get emptied. The stores look better. The two
Speaker 4: seconds before they open is when they look the best,
Speaker 4: isn't it. I learned a lot about Dollar Tree. We
Speaker 4: had a person who worked on the show who for
Speaker 4: the holidays decided to get a job at Dollar Tree
Speaker 4: so they could report back to us and tell us
Speaker 4: what's really going on at Dollar Tree. And what I
Speaker 4: learned was that Dollar Tree is totally dependent on when
Speaker 4: the tree truck comes in my trucker. Friends, you're you're
Speaker 4: the reason a dollar tree is good or not. They're
Speaker 4: really good dollar trees and they're horrible, terrifying dollar trees.
Speaker 4: There's no consistency. They're right. There's a Nirvana dollar Tree
Speaker 4: I've been to. I'm not going to tell you where
Speaker 4: it is because you'd be jealous. And then they're the
Speaker 4: ghetto dollar trees, and the ghetto dollar trees. You walk
Speaker 4: in and everything's random. The displays move since the last
Speaker 4: time you were there, and the last time you were
Speaker 4: there was yesterday. There's no pattern to what they have
Speaker 4: and what they don't. And the food selection is particularly interesting.
Speaker 4: The food section often looks like a kitchen in Mexico.
Speaker 4: Looks like a hospital kitchen in Mexico. This is really
Speaker 4: I don't need I don't need this much, this many chickpeas,
Speaker 4: I don't need this much coconut oil. The big thing
Speaker 4: that surprises me about Dollar Tree, how about you. The
Speaker 4: big thing that surprises me about Dolatry is I have
Speaker 4: to remember to go there first because it's going to
Speaker 4: be cheaper than anyplace else, but also because there are
Speaker 4: things that Dolatry I never expected them to have, like
Speaker 4: coconut oil. I never expected them coconut oil, but there
Speaker 4: they have a robust selection of coconut oil. And then
Speaker 4: there are things that they don't have that are shocking.
Speaker 4: They don't have coffee, ground coffee very rare. They have
Speaker 4: it in weird little cafeteria airplane style bags. They have
Speaker 4: no milk. That is, of course the biggest drawback, and
Speaker 4: the dairy associations must have some weird rules about who
Speaker 4: can sell milk or not. Maybe it's a refrigeration problem.
Speaker 4: They do have eggs, however, they do have eggs, and
Speaker 4: you know who else says eggs all of Chicago now
Speaker 4: down to ninety nine cents at WGN Radio.
Speaker 2: Midnight Misfits, walchesterling the out of side of.
Speaker 4: Midnight Dollar Tree. The mistake I can make is not
Speaker 4: going to Dollar Tree first. There are things that I'd
Speaker 4: be an idiot to not buy a Dollar Tree. Aluminum foil,
Speaker 4: plastic bags, baggies, those things, toilet paper, but not paper towels.
Speaker 4: Do not buy paper towels at Dollar Tree. You'll do
Speaker 4: better at Target. You'll do better at Walmart, but really, oddly,
Speaker 4: Target's the best place to get paper towels. I don't
Speaker 4: know why. They have some cat foods but not really
Speaker 4: the ones you want. No, that's not true. I've gotten
Speaker 4: good cat food at Dollar Tree. Excellent cooking utensils, measuring cups,
Speaker 4: cleaning products. They have very interesting cleaning. They have a
Speaker 4: lot of cleaning products that are the color purple. If
Speaker 4: you notice that at Dollar Tree they have a shelf
Speaker 4: after shelf of cleaning products to the color purple. Good
Speaker 4: prices on sponges. All of that works. Then there are
Speaker 4: other things that I just am very nervous about. Any
Speaker 4: That's what it is. Anything in that refrigerator makes me nervous.
Speaker 4: Any frozen food always brands and dishes I've never heard of.
Speaker 4: I never knew I wanted. Green beans and lentils never
Speaker 4: came up before, or chunks of lamb and tandory sauce
Speaker 4: I have really at Dollar Tree. I don't think I'm
Speaker 4: going to be getting my tandory products at Dollar Tree.
Speaker 4: It's the frozen foods case that scares me. It empties fast.
Speaker 4: And now they've gotten very robust with candy. But about
Speaker 4: two years ago they got a new CEO at Dollar Tree,
Speaker 4: which also owns Dollar General, which also owns another family
Speaker 4: Dollar They're all owned by the same company. Now they
Speaker 4: merged and they have the same CEO. And he did
Speaker 4: a stupid thing. And if you'd return my calls, I
Speaker 4: would tell him he did a stupid thing, and we
Speaker 4: talk about it on the air, and then he could
Speaker 4: tell me that it wasn't stupid and explain why. But
Speaker 4: he hasn't returned the call. About two years ago, when
Speaker 4: he became the CEO, they started changing the price and
Speaker 4: it stopped being a dollar, and then it went up
Speaker 4: to a minimum of a dollar twenty five. Well that's
Speaker 4: a different business. That's a twenty five percent increase in
Speaker 4: their revenue right there. Then they added a special section
Speaker 4: Dollar Tree Plus something like that. You've seen this. It's
Speaker 4: in a different part of the store, away from all
Speaker 4: of the normal things. They over there on the left,
Speaker 4: way over on the left, these are five dollar items.
Speaker 4: They have some items a Dollar Tree that are five dollars.
Speaker 4: And then that's a different shopping experience because when we
Speaker 4: used to go through Dollar Tree and just went through it,
Speaker 4: boom boom, boom boom. I could buy twenty things and
Speaker 4: it didn't matter because they were all a dollar and
Speaker 4: if we got something wrong, it didn't matter. But now
Speaker 4: if it's five dollars, we have to think about it. Well,
Speaker 4: that does a couple of things that they didn't think through.
Speaker 4: Number One, it's a slower shopping experience. That means, oh,
Speaker 4: I don't have time to go to Dollar Tree. Well
Speaker 4: that wasn't an issue before, was it. And then we
Speaker 4: get fussier five dollars. I don't know if this is
Speaker 4: worth five dollars, and we start to shop the five
Speaker 4: dollars items at Walmart, And those are the things I
Speaker 4: don't really think they thought through. What do you think?
Speaker 4: Eight hundred eight four eight nine two two two eight
Speaker 4: hundred eighty four eight nine two two two Joaquin retired
Speaker 4: truck driver, Welcome to the other side of midnight. Hi Joaquin, Hello, Joaquin,
Speaker 4: Come in, come.
Speaker 1: In, yes, yes, good morning, ten.
Speaker 4: Four ten four, come in, come in ten four.
Speaker 7: That's right, ten four. Goo, buddy, Hey, you want to
Speaker 7: know something. Actually, you could call me wing not watching.
Speaker 7: I told really to call me that because I must
Speaker 7: have been bipolar. Because on the one hand, I'm I'm
Speaker 7: a risk taker. I could be a very excessive risk taker.
Speaker 7: But then the other side of me actually always sees
Speaker 7: the negative, the negative side of it. It gets panic
Speaker 7: and anxiety attacks.
Speaker 4: So do you get real panic Do you get real
Speaker 4: panic attacks?
Speaker 5: Oh?
Speaker 7: Yeah, yeah, yeah, no I do. Oh yeah. I went
Speaker 7: to the hospital one night. I'm going to get to
Speaker 7: that story actually tonight.
Speaker 5: It's a story.
Speaker 7: It's kind of an X rated story maybe, but yeah,
Speaker 7: my wife was pregnant and we went to the hospital
Speaker 7: because I was having a panic attack. I I was
Speaker 7: having a heart attack. And the doctor goes, you're as
Speaker 7: healthy as a freaking horse. He goes, if you're my
Speaker 7: own brother, i'd send you home. But I was having
Speaker 7: the heart I was having a panic attack. That left
Speaker 7: me feeling like I was having a heart attack.
Speaker 4: Anyway, I understand they're terrified. What do you do when
Speaker 4: you have a panic attack? How do you stop them?
Speaker 7: Oh? My god, Walter, I drink a lot. What can
Speaker 7: I say? You know, I well, I do have some xanax,
Speaker 7: you know, and whatever else, you know, and it's not
Speaker 7: as bad now, but there were times in the past,
Speaker 7: like I said, I took risks and the problem is
Speaker 7: is that, you know, those risks a lot of times
Speaker 7: caused me to have panics over now and anyway, so
Speaker 7: let's get to tonight's trucking story.
Speaker 4: Tonight trucking story from our friend Joaquin. Every night comes
Speaker 4: to us with a retired trucker story that I appreciate.
Speaker 4: Please share.
Speaker 7: All right, Well, in nineteen eighty five, on my birthday,
Speaker 7: actually I was twenty second, I actually became the owner
Speaker 7: of my own truck. Okay, and uh it was in
Speaker 7: nineteen seventy eight, ken with cabover Aerodyne. And at one
Speaker 7: point it was really interesting because I knew this guy
Speaker 7: in elementary school and the one that my wife she
Speaker 7: called her her aunt and she considered Gary her cousin. Well,
Speaker 7: we knew each other, you know, from that long ago.
Speaker 7: And uh, Gary had a job and he was working
Speaker 7: holing mail. Well he lost that job. We'd actually moved
Speaker 7: up to shitt Talk at the time, you know. And
Speaker 7: so afterwards I bought my truck and I figured, all right,
Speaker 7: you know what, I want to hire Gary? You know,
Speaker 7: maybe I can, you know, we'll, we'll, we'll run this
Speaker 7: truck twenty four to seven. Well, the poor guy, I
Speaker 7: was afraid to let him drive my truck. But we
Speaker 7: for a while, spent some time and my wife, actually
Speaker 7: the three of us were out in this truck and
Speaker 7: we wound up one night and reno Nevada. And of
Speaker 7: course I was only like twenty six, twenty seven years old.
Speaker 7: Of course my wife was only like twenty two twenty three.
Speaker 7: And of course so Gary would be sleeping in the
Speaker 7: top bed and we'd gone the bottom doing our thing. Right, Well,
Speaker 7: my wife got pregnant, and uh we figured out that
Speaker 7: it was that my daughter was conceived and reing on
Speaker 7: Nevada at the truck stop. And once we got home,
Speaker 7: you know, she found out she was pregnant. She wound
Speaker 7: up going to work because she did I didn't have
Speaker 7: no health insurance, being you know, an owner operator. And
Speaker 7: she got a job. She was a dental assistant, and
Speaker 7: so she said, no, I'm paying for you know, the
Speaker 7: all things. So she went to work and paid, you know,
Speaker 7: made the money to pay the whole forty five hundred
Speaker 7: bucks to have the baby. And so my oldest daughter Elizabeth,
Speaker 7: I have four children. She was actually conceived a truck
Speaker 7: stopped in Reno, Nevada's trucks that baby, you.
Speaker 4: Know, that's the whole environment for a baby. Couldn't be
Speaker 4: more fascinating. A truck stop one Reno, Devada two. Look
Speaker 4: at you. It's a miracle. And by the way, my
Speaker 4: sister's named Elizabeth. It's my favorite name. How is Elizabeth doing.
Speaker 5: Oh, she's doing fine.
Speaker 7: She's thirty seven years old now now she has two
Speaker 7: children and she's doing great.
Speaker 4: Good for you. I appreciate these stories. Thank you very much.
Speaker 4: We look forward tomorrow night, Joquin to your next trucker story.
Speaker 1: You are listening to the biggest all night show in American.
Speaker 4: Radio, The Other Side of Midnight Joe in New Jersey
Speaker 4: at eight hundred eighty four eight nine two two two Joe,
Speaker 4: the Pride of New Jersey. Welcome to the Other Side
Speaker 4: of Midnight.
Speaker 6: Yeah, I'm kind of shocked to see that your phone
Speaker 6: system is working to get well.
Speaker 4: I figured it was it was an attack against the station,
Speaker 4: the company's political point of view. I, of course don't
Speaker 4: have a political point of view, because I can't imagine
Speaker 4: anything more boring to put on the radio, but others do,
Speaker 4: and I figured that was the reason our phones were attacked.
Speaker 6: Yeah, maybe, but I heard you say the dollar Store
Speaker 6: doesn't have milk.
Speaker 4: My Dollar Tree does not have milk.
Speaker 6: I go to Dollar Tree all the time and buy
Speaker 6: milk by the cases.
Speaker 4: Now, what size are the containers.
Speaker 6: They're court containers.
Speaker 4: And what kind of milk is it? What kind of
Speaker 4: milk is it?
Speaker 6: It's kind of like permelap ah.
Speaker 4: Yeah. Sorry, so it's not real milk.
Speaker 6: It's milk, but it's it's been sterily filled in the containers.
Speaker 4: Yeah, it's concentrated.
Speaker 6: It's concentrated, shelf stable.
Speaker 4: Shelf stables. Right, it's not fresh milk. They don't sell
Speaker 4: fresh milk. I wonder what that's about.
Speaker 6: Yeah, but that the chocolate. They got two percent, one
Speaker 6: percent and whole milk, and I buy that all the time.
Speaker 6: Keep it around the house, don't have to have it
Speaker 6: in the refrigerator. They'll last you for a year, and
Speaker 6: it tastes just as good.
Speaker 4: It would last you for a year if you don't
Speaker 4: have three teenagers living with you.
Speaker 6: Yeah. Well true, but no, just sitting on the shelf,
Speaker 6: it stays fresh.
Speaker 4: No, are there other things that Dollar Tree that you
Speaker 4: find fascinating.
Speaker 6: Uh. I find a lot of things. They are fascinating.
Speaker 6: Eating their light bulbs one hundred watt led light bulbs
Speaker 6: for a dollar twenty five.
Speaker 4: Yeah, and the batteries and the batteries, batteries.
Speaker 6: I haven't had such good uh success with them.
Speaker 4: What do you mean they don't last?
Speaker 6: They don't last at all. Yeah, I found a lot
Speaker 6: of them. You take them out of the package and
Speaker 6: they're dead in the package.
Speaker 4: Yeah, got it. It's a It's a very interesting mix
Speaker 4: of merchandise, isn't it. It's fascinating what they put together
Speaker 4: at the Dollar Trees.
Speaker 6: But now you go in there, you gotta be careful
Speaker 6: because you pick up something and you figure it's a dollar,
Speaker 6: and they turn around and tell you it's five dollars.
Speaker 4: I know it's very dollars. Yeah, the CEO made a mistake.
Speaker 4: The store is called Dollar Tree, and we expect everything
Speaker 4: to be a dollar, and then when we find out
Speaker 4: at the register it's five dollars, we feel we've been cheated.
Speaker 4: We feel that we've been had. If you're owning a store,
Speaker 4: you don't want your customers to feel as though they've
Speaker 4: been had.
Speaker 8: Uh.
Speaker 6: Yeah, it all happened over the COVID mass and whatnot
Speaker 6: where they did all the changing, and I don't like
Speaker 6: it at all.
Speaker 4: I agree, Joe, and I appreciate you. Thank you very
Speaker 4: much for calling the other side of midnight. You and
Speaker 4: I are talking about are challenging experiences at Dollar Tree.
Speaker 4: Dollar Tree used to be great. It was a gift
Speaker 4: that I went in there and I bought something, and
Speaker 4: it was a dollar, and then it became a dollar
Speaker 4: twenty five. And then the new CEO shows up and
Speaker 4: decides to expand, expand the merchandise list, and now there
Speaker 4: are items in there for five dollars. Probably if I
Speaker 4: watched it long enough, it'd be more than that. The balloons,
Speaker 4: the balloons are more than a dollar, right, air is
Speaker 4: more than a dollar. You realize the hydrogen thing, you know,
Speaker 4: I'm sorry, the healing, you know the story about the helium.
Speaker 4: You got a Dollar Tree, you buy a helium balloon,
Speaker 4: You're happy, you get four or five of them. It's
Speaker 4: great to bring home. Do you realize that this is?
Speaker 4: This is so weird. When I learned it, I had
Speaker 4: to check it. It's true. All of the world's helium
Speaker 4: comes from one mine. All of it comes from one mine,
Speaker 4: and the ninety percent of the business at Party City
Speaker 4: was balloons. Who knew they'd have these ten thousand square
Speaker 4: foot stores with overpriced costumes and party chotchkes, right, and
Speaker 4: the balloons. You wanted a balloon, you went to Party City.
Speaker 4: Maybe you went to Dollar Tree, but mostly you went
Speaker 4: to Party City. Every type of balloon you could ever want,
Speaker 4: all the cartoons, all the branded balloons, everything, right, you'd
Speaker 4: go there, you'd buy five or six, they'd blow them
Speaker 4: up for you. And it was part of the fun
Speaker 4: of going to Party City, which always empty except for
Speaker 4: the balloons. Every time I went to Party City, I'm like, well,
Speaker 4: maybe I'm just going at a very slow time of day,
Speaker 4: or maybe people have stopped giving parties. I never saw
Speaker 4: a crowded party city. I'm just thinking about this now.
Speaker 4: This is my deep philosophic considerations Party City. Yeah. Anyway,
Speaker 4: so the mystery of Party City is that they were
Speaker 4: always empty except for the balloons. You went in, you
Speaker 4: got ten balloons. You left. Well. Party City was totally
Speaker 4: dependent on helium, and the helium mine went on strike.
Speaker 4: They closed it down. The workers refused to go anymore,
Speaker 4: and for months there was no helium. You couldn't get helium.
Speaker 4: Party City couldn't get it. Dollar Tree couldn't get it.
Speaker 4: Helium was a rare and premium item and it only
Speaker 4: came from one mine. And by the time the strike
Speaker 4: was over and the helium was set free again, Party
Speaker 4: City was out of business. The party cities have gone bankrupt.
Speaker 4: And the reason it wasn't lack of business, which is
Speaker 4: what I would have been guessing, it was a lack
Speaker 4: of helium. Isn't that bizarre? This is the other side
Speaker 4: of Midnight with Walter Stirling. Would you like to go
Speaker 4: to the penial gland or would you like to hear
Speaker 4: Cat's yelling on Fox?
Speaker 10: This congestion pricing, it's killing our cities and in motorcycles,
Speaker 10: the motorcycles and me, I mean you can't cross the
Speaker 10: street without almost getting killed. I mean it is really, really,
Speaker 10: it's getting the quality of life is starting to be taxed.
Speaker 1: And don't forget all these taxes.
Speaker 10: The power to tax, the power to tax is the
Speaker 10: power to destroy.
Speaker 4: He's an incredibly entertaining man when he comes on the show,
Speaker 4: which he can do at any time, but he doesn't.
Speaker 4: He waits for an invitation and then I got a like,
Speaker 4: please come on, because he tells the best stories. John Katzimatidis,
Speaker 4: who owns this network. But I think there's enough of
Speaker 4: a back story, enough of a catalog of Katsimatidi's saying things,
Speaker 4: commenting on things. I think it would be possible to
Speaker 4: set up a twenty four hour something. I don't know
Speaker 4: what I have to think about it of just him,
Speaker 4: just him saying things, quotes from his news releases being
Speaker 4: on Fox, from his show Kats and Cosby with the
Speaker 4: Great Rita Cosby, Why adore. I think there's enough there
Speaker 4: and it's unique enough. Well here listen again.
Speaker 10: This congestion pricing, it's killing our cities, and in motorcycles,
Speaker 10: the motorcycles and the I mean you can't cross the
Speaker 10: street with almost getting killed. I mean it is really
Speaker 10: really it's getting The quality of life is starting to
Speaker 10: be taxed. Uh, and don't forget all these taxes. The
Speaker 10: power to tax, the power to tax is the.
Speaker 1: Power to destroy.
Speaker 4: He's a self made billionaire. And think about other self
Speaker 4: made billionaires that you that you know about, like that
Speaker 4: guy the found Schultz, the founder of Starbucks or one
Speaker 4: of the founders. He wasn't the founder. He was. He
Speaker 4: came in for a slide. It was a slide into
Speaker 4: first base. There and Mark Kuben, they're they're very calm,
Speaker 4: They control themselves. They want to appear professional, they want
Speaker 4: to appear to be billionaires. Right. But John Katzimatitis, he
Speaker 4: wants to tell the truth. He's a common sense here's
Speaker 4: the truth, here's the deal. How refreshing, how important? How
Speaker 4: freaking important?
Speaker 10: Is that?
Speaker 4: The way to make it work is the way I
Speaker 4: made Howard one hundred work. Yes, me, In my previous life,
Speaker 4: I was a programming advisor and one of my jobs
Speaker 4: was to start up Howard one hundred News. And I
Speaker 4: put together the cast for Howard one hundred News. But
Speaker 4: one of the things we realized is we pretty much
Speaker 4: needed a reporter on Howard all day just to cover Howard.
Speaker 4: And that's what would have to happen. Cats would have
Speaker 4: to have a real reporter with him all day to
Speaker 4: cover the things he did, file reports, keep it updated,
Speaker 4: go to events with him. I think it'd be a
Speaker 4: hoot and a half, all right, ladies and gentlemen. Walter
Speaker 4: Stirling fascinated by the chairman of the WNBA.
Speaker 8: I'm not a biologist, How can I be expected to
Speaker 8: define what a woman is if you think you know
Speaker 8: how to tell the difference between a man and woman.
Speaker 3: Please speak up?
Speaker 2: Boys have a penist?
Speaker 1: Girls have.
Speaker 4: Coming up? I have new faux information. If you look
Speaker 4: at old buildings, eighteen hundreds buildings, and you look at
Speaker 4: the glass facing the street, you notice that it's always
Speaker 4: kind of wavy. It's not clear. It's not a flat surface.
Speaker 4: Glass was thick and wavy and imperfect. And guess what,
Speaker 4: That's how they wanted it. And I'm going to share why.
Speaker 4: Coming up in seconds with Walter Sterling On the Other
Speaker 4: Side of Midnight from the Red Apple Audio Networks.
Speaker 8: The Other Side of Midnight with Walter Sterling. The Other
Speaker 8: Side of Midnight with Walter Sterling.
Speaker 2: Walterstone, The Other Side of Midnight.
Speaker 4: How at eight hundred eight four eight nine two two
Speaker 4: two how eight one hundred eight four eight nine two

Speaker 3: Hi, my name is hal Hallucinated wants to let you
Speaker 3: know that Walmart took down the cat litter Kitty Diggins
Speaker 3: the green catletter boxes of the Dagar stores. But I
Speaker 3: wanted to really cool to show about the Bible verses
Speaker 3: that talks about Ufo.
Speaker 7: Ezekiel four point one talks about ufo is in the Bible.
Speaker 4: And what does it say and what does it say
Speaker 4: in the Bible about UFOs?
Speaker 3: Uh the verse Ezekiel four point one, As I remember.
Speaker 4: Isn't that a bread? Isn't Ezekiel like a bread or
Speaker 4: raisin bread that's in the freezer.
Speaker 3: Maybe I'm pronouncing of the name wrong Ezekiel easy?
Speaker 4: Yeah, no, no, you're not pronouncing it wrong. But it's
Speaker 4: also a bread in the freezer of the fancy supermarkets.
Speaker 3: Oh okay, well used to buying Jewish viebread and toasting it.
Speaker 4: Also, by the way, hold hold on right there, hold
Speaker 4: on right there. Toasted Jewish rye with butter onter is amazing.
Speaker 4: It is like the most satisfying meal you could possibly have.
Speaker 1: Yep, yep.
Speaker 6: Also the Art Bell Show.
Speaker 3: I remember he's.
Speaker 4: Been dead twenty years now. I don't want to hear
Speaker 4: about the Art Bell Show.
Speaker 3: Okay, look, this is a simulation world, and we were
Speaker 3: told him not to go back to the movie because.
Speaker 4: All of that nonsense with Art Bell and all those
Speaker 4: guys all started with long John Nibble.
Speaker 11: Hello, mister Canneth, Donald that's right, this is long John.
Speaker 11: I'm very happy to have this opportunity of talking with you.
Speaker 11: I'm sorry though that you weren't able to join us
Speaker 11: on the program. But I was wondering, did you hear
Speaker 11: any of the program that we had on last night?
Speaker 11: In reference to the Armstrong Circle Theater program? I did,
Speaker 11: Ron John, and in fact I stayed up.
Speaker 4: See they're all just cheap imitations of Long John, those people.
Speaker 3: But I'm just saying, you know, this is we were
Speaker 3: told and warned not to go back to the moon,
Speaker 3: and then they we are trying to go back.
Speaker 4: He who told us not to go back to the.
Speaker 3: Moon, the being on the moon told the told the
Speaker 3: astronauts don't come back here again. And when they were
Speaker 3: on the moon, they heard and saw heard beautiful music,
Speaker 3: and they saw a bunch of aliens pointing at them,
Speaker 3: and warned not to go back to the moon. Nineteen
Speaker 3: seventy two.
Speaker 4: I believe Do you believe that.
Speaker 6: Kind of now?
Speaker 4: Think about it? Do you believe it? How would they first?
Speaker 4: How would they have heard them, because there's no atmosphere,
Speaker 4: sound doesn't carry. How would they have heard them.
Speaker 3: Through the locker ship?
Speaker 5: They heard beautiful music?
Speaker 3: Through the rocker ship, and then when they got out
Speaker 3: of the locker ship they saw a bunch of aliens
Speaker 3: pointing at them, and telepathically they would want do not
Speaker 3: do not return here again. Do not come back here.
Speaker 3: If you do, you can get sick. And things were bad.
Speaker 3: Things will happen in nineteen seventy two.
Speaker 4: But on the Moon there had to have been porta
Speaker 4: potties for humans. No, there wasn't There had to been,
Speaker 4: And thank you for the call. I appreciate the call.
Speaker 4: How eight hundred eight four eight nine two to two
Speaker 4: eight hundred eight four eight nine to two.
Speaker 12: I'm not aware of anything that we would have at
Speaker 12: NASA to declassify other and say that I'm as interested
Speaker 12: in you know, the president's message is probably any other
Speaker 12: space enthusiasts out there. Now, I will say having you know,
Speaker 12: I spent ten years leading a defense contracting company. You know,
Speaker 12: we we operated fighter jets all across the country, uh,
Speaker 12: simulating Uh, you know, bad guy capabilities. Say, look, there
Speaker 12: are a lot of as you would expect, exquisite capabilities
Speaker 12: that we have as a nation, uh for you know,
Speaker 12: for national security purposes that we have developed. All we
Speaker 12: have to do is look to the history books, right,
Speaker 12: SR seventy one was a pretty wild capability the nineteen sixties, nobody,
Speaker 12: you know, nobody would have imagined that F one seventeen
Speaker 12: was pretty wild. So do I think that there are
Speaker 12: probably capabilities we have as a nation that we developed
Speaker 12: and our adversaries that can do some pretty impressive things,
Speaker 12: you know, sure, So I wouldn't be surprised that.
Speaker 13: So that puts you in the camp that says a
Speaker 13: lot of the uap UFO sort of encounters and also
Speaker 13: sort of vapors around it are covers for human technologies.
Speaker 12: Yes, I would say, generally speaking, I think there are
Speaker 12: some that I'm aware of that were very easily explainable
Speaker 12: by not even phenomenon like this was this was you know,
Speaker 12: a weather balloon that at great range that reflected I
Speaker 12: know those conclusively. I also know conclusively some of them
Speaker 12: were related to, you know, test programs that were out there.
Speaker 12: I mean, people misidentified a lot of what was flying
Speaker 12: in the you know, nineteen sixties and eighties, you know,
Speaker 12: in the in the middle of the desert with lights
Speaker 12: on at night, looks strange.
Speaker 1: Turned out it was b too.
Speaker 12: Turned out it was F one seventeen, So I'm not
Speaker 12: surprised that that that could potentially fall in it. I
Speaker 12: would also ask people again, this is a good, you know,
Speaker 12: kind of Okham's razor thing. If if there was intelligent
Speaker 12: life that visited us from another world, where would you
Speaker 12: where would you be interested in going to observe us?
Speaker 12: I mean, Times Square seems like a good spot. The
Speaker 12: Las Vegas Strip seems like a good spot. I mean,
Speaker 12: there's got to be interesting areas. Why would you always
Speaker 12: pick our naval basis, you know, why would you pick
Speaker 12: off the coast of Virginia or San Diego or why?
Speaker 12: That probably signals it's more of a national security interest.
Speaker 4: Right up for audio.
Speaker 2: UFO Steling secrets.
Speaker 4: Coming up. You and I are going to talk about
Speaker 4: UFOs mysteries. Why where the buildings in the eighteen hundreds.
Speaker 4: Why were the front of those buildings built with wavy glass? Thick,
Speaker 4: heavy wavy glass in the windows. And you may be thinking, well,
Speaker 4: they didn't know how to make clear glass. Well, you
Speaker 4: and I are going to discuss that, and the answer
Speaker 4: is shocking. I have new information about Tartaria and the
Speaker 4: Tartarian libraries. The Tartarian Libraries, although they had all the
Speaker 4: information in the books they didn't actually have paper books.
Speaker 4: And men gaslighting what women do to men to keep
Speaker 4: us under control. That's shocking. I have no more about
Speaker 4: Rose O'Donnell, You're safe. And the God frequency. There's a
Speaker 4: frequency that enables us to get closer to God coming
Speaker 4: up in seconds. Other Side of Midnight, Red Apple Audio Networks.
