29
00:01:57.920 --> 00:02:00.200
<v Speaker 2>Welcome to this edition of Where Did the Road Go Go?

30
00:02:00.319 --> 00:02:05.079
<v Speaker 2>And tonight I have joining me aj from the Parasortium podcast,

31
00:02:05.239 --> 00:02:08.719
<v Speaker 2>which is primarily on substack right well.

32
00:02:08.560 --> 00:02:15.120
<v Speaker 6>It's substack, YouTube, Spotify, and like nine other platforms, so

33
00:02:15.479 --> 00:02:16.800
<v Speaker 6>it's pretty preferse.

34
00:02:17.280 --> 00:02:20.759
<v Speaker 2>Okay. I'm only familiar with it from some substack.

35
00:02:21.000 --> 00:02:25.400
<v Speaker 6>I just came on to substack by the request of

36
00:02:25.479 --> 00:02:29.360
<v Speaker 6>some of the people because they don't like Patreon and yeah,

37
00:02:29.439 --> 00:02:31.360
<v Speaker 6>and it's an easier platform to deal with.

38
00:02:31.560 --> 00:02:34.240
<v Speaker 2>I do like substack. I have no real complaints about

39
00:02:34.240 --> 00:02:36.759
<v Speaker 2>it though, and it seems like a better community overall,

40
00:02:36.800 --> 00:02:38.719
<v Speaker 2>honestly than a lot of other social media.

41
00:02:38.879 --> 00:02:43.680
<v Speaker 6>It is they have less of the problematic sorts.

42
00:02:43.840 --> 00:02:46.400
<v Speaker 2>Now you've how long have you been doing Parasortium?

43
00:02:46.919 --> 00:02:51.319
<v Speaker 6>This is our fifth season, so five years, okay. Prior

44
00:02:51.400 --> 00:02:55.199
<v Speaker 6>prior to that, we were we were working in preservation

45
00:02:55.879 --> 00:02:59.759
<v Speaker 6>of artifacts and and that sort of thing. So so

46
00:03:00.039 --> 00:03:03.840
<v Speaker 6>we built up and then someone said do a podcast. Okay,

47
00:03:03.960 --> 00:03:06.680
<v Speaker 6>and here we are five years later and it's become

48
00:03:06.719 --> 00:03:10.560
<v Speaker 6>our main thing. And what kind of artifacts, Well, it's

49
00:03:10.560 --> 00:03:16.240
<v Speaker 6>a broad thing. We do local artifacts and like when

50
00:03:16.280 --> 00:03:20.680
<v Speaker 6>people are teared down schools and whatnot, they'll send us

51
00:03:20.680 --> 00:03:24.840
<v Speaker 6>a picture. We'll preserve a picture of something that they

52
00:03:24.960 --> 00:03:29.479
<v Speaker 6>found that has historical significance, and then if they do

53
00:03:29.560 --> 00:03:31.840
<v Speaker 6>it right, we can create a three D model of

54
00:03:31.919 --> 00:03:34.319
<v Speaker 6>it and have that in the museum somewhere.

55
00:03:34.599 --> 00:03:36.000
<v Speaker 2>Why not just get the artifacts.

56
00:03:36.520 --> 00:03:39.800
<v Speaker 6>Sometimes the artifacts are broken and so I end up

57
00:03:39.840 --> 00:03:42.479
<v Speaker 6>with the pieces and then I stitch it back together

58
00:03:42.800 --> 00:03:47.759
<v Speaker 6>and use my artistic skills to infer the damage pieces

59
00:03:47.759 --> 00:03:52.280
<v Speaker 6>that are missing. And so it's a lot of tedious work, sure,

60
00:03:52.520 --> 00:03:57.360
<v Speaker 6>and we've done a few items of that nature now

61
00:03:57.560 --> 00:04:02.639
<v Speaker 6>less so because we're more into creating content for YouTube

62
00:04:02.719 --> 00:04:06.879
<v Speaker 6>and substack. We're actually we're working on a couple of

63
00:04:06.960 --> 00:04:10.879
<v Speaker 6>TV shows to bring to market in the next couple

64
00:04:10.919 --> 00:04:13.719
<v Speaker 6>of years. Hopefully that that works out.

65
00:04:15.240 --> 00:04:17.800
<v Speaker 2>TV is always a sketchy market, it seems it is.

66
00:04:18.480 --> 00:04:21.959
<v Speaker 6>They're very fickle. Yeah, they come in, they want you

67
00:04:22.040 --> 00:04:25.600
<v Speaker 6>to change everything. That's why one of the projects. If

68
00:04:25.639 --> 00:04:29.639
<v Speaker 6>I can, I'm going to do like a Kickstarter and

69
00:04:29.759 --> 00:04:32.120
<v Speaker 6>see if I can't fund it myself. There you go,

70
00:04:32.279 --> 00:04:35.040
<v Speaker 6>because it's it. I'm going to have to hire at

71
00:04:35.160 --> 00:04:38.639
<v Speaker 6>least one or two other people to do it with me,

72
00:04:38.959 --> 00:04:42.959
<v Speaker 6>and that's a significant amount of money considering it's an animation.

73
00:04:43.279 --> 00:04:43.720
<v Speaker 2>Oh and.

74
00:04:45.240 --> 00:04:47.439
<v Speaker 6>And right now I'm doing all of the animation and

75
00:04:47.519 --> 00:04:50.600
<v Speaker 6>learning animation while i'm doing it, so so it's.

76
00:04:50.439 --> 00:04:53.560
<v Speaker 2>Fun at least you enjoy it.

77
00:04:53.639 --> 00:04:56.879
<v Speaker 6>Yeah, I've always been artistic, so you've and.

78
00:04:56.839 --> 00:04:59.480
<v Speaker 2>You've had paranormal experiences your whole.

79
00:04:59.279 --> 00:05:01.560
<v Speaker 6>Life, Yes, right from when I was a baby.

80
00:05:02.160 --> 00:05:03.199
<v Speaker 2>What were the early ones?

81
00:05:03.480 --> 00:05:07.040
<v Speaker 6>When I was six months old and just starting to

82
00:05:07.800 --> 00:05:12.680
<v Speaker 6>babble and say names, I started talking to someone in

83
00:05:12.759 --> 00:05:16.519
<v Speaker 6>my crib and my parents asked me if it was

84
00:05:16.560 --> 00:05:20.120
<v Speaker 6>my grandmother that was living with us, and I shook

85
00:05:20.199 --> 00:05:24.800
<v Speaker 6>my head no, And they were looking through albums and

86
00:05:24.839 --> 00:05:29.879
<v Speaker 6>I pointed to my grandmother that had died ten years

87
00:05:29.959 --> 00:05:32.959
<v Speaker 6>before me and said Nanny Alice. And I shouldn't have

88
00:05:32.959 --> 00:05:36.800
<v Speaker 6>been speaking that well at that time, but I said that,

89
00:05:37.000 --> 00:05:38.680
<v Speaker 6>and it kind of freaked them out.

90
00:05:38.839 --> 00:05:41.680
<v Speaker 2>I'm also surprised you remember that young I.

91
00:05:41.639 --> 00:05:44.160
<v Speaker 6>Don't remember it, but I was told the story. Oh

92
00:05:44.199 --> 00:05:50.480
<v Speaker 6>okay a thousand times afterwards because my house was severely haunted.

93
00:05:51.439 --> 00:05:55.639
<v Speaker 6>We had a former owner who was a rather belligerent

94
00:05:55.759 --> 00:06:00.079
<v Speaker 6>person who liked to choke people. Oh and people that

95
00:06:00.160 --> 00:06:04.439
<v Speaker 6>weren't used to the house. If they stayed in my bedroom,

96
00:06:04.480 --> 00:06:08.079
<v Speaker 6>which was the old garage where he worked, they would

97
00:06:08.079 --> 00:06:10.000
<v Speaker 6>wake up in the middle of night feeling like they're

98
00:06:10.000 --> 00:06:14.480
<v Speaker 6>being choked and and then run out. So I was

99
00:06:14.480 --> 00:06:16.800
<v Speaker 6>the only one that could stay in there. But he

100
00:06:16.879 --> 00:06:18.759
<v Speaker 6>tried to choke me once and I told him to

101
00:06:19.279 --> 00:06:21.720
<v Speaker 6>go away, and he never bought bothered me again.

102
00:06:21.800 --> 00:06:23.439
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, it's remarkable how that works.

103
00:06:23.600 --> 00:06:27.279
<v Speaker 6>Yeah, when you're when you're dealing with ghosts, they're like

104
00:06:27.399 --> 00:06:30.519
<v Speaker 6>people if you if you give them a boundary, they'll

105
00:06:30.560 --> 00:06:34.199
<v Speaker 6>stick to it, particularly if you're forceful, and then with

106
00:06:34.240 --> 00:06:36.519
<v Speaker 6>your intentions towards maintaining that.

107
00:06:36.720 --> 00:06:39.879
<v Speaker 2>Yeah. So, so apparently he liked you more than anyone else.

108
00:06:40.360 --> 00:06:43.759
<v Speaker 6>I guess. I guess I didn't like his piano playing.

109
00:06:43.920 --> 00:06:46.000
<v Speaker 6>I still don't like piano because of it.

110
00:06:46.040 --> 00:06:49.560
<v Speaker 2>So would it just be like random piano notes or no.

111
00:06:50.439 --> 00:06:55.240
<v Speaker 6>My grandmother had a like an old organ, and it

112
00:06:55.319 --> 00:06:58.639
<v Speaker 6>was an electric organ. So it would play unplugged. Oh,

113
00:06:58.800 --> 00:07:03.920
<v Speaker 6>and he he would play old funeral churches. So it

114
00:07:04.000 --> 00:07:07.000
<v Speaker 6>was it was very creepy. And as a kid, I

115
00:07:07.040 --> 00:07:09.480
<v Speaker 6>hated him. I didn't I didn't like anything to do

116
00:07:09.519 --> 00:07:13.240
<v Speaker 6>with him. But I had my grandmother's spirit protecting me

117
00:07:13.319 --> 00:07:16.360
<v Speaker 6>the whole time. I would feel her presence in the

118
00:07:16.439 --> 00:07:20.279
<v Speaker 6>room because I would smell magnolia. These are memories I

119
00:07:20.279 --> 00:07:25.040
<v Speaker 6>haven't talked about in a minute, But it kind of

120
00:07:25.120 --> 00:07:26.240
<v Speaker 6>built from there.

121
00:07:26.519 --> 00:07:28.560
<v Speaker 2>Why why do you assume it was the former owner?

122
00:07:29.360 --> 00:07:34.360
<v Speaker 6>Because we had direct evidence of the man and people

123
00:07:34.439 --> 00:07:38.720
<v Speaker 6>that lived in the area remembered him, and they no

124
00:07:38.759 --> 00:07:41.040
<v Speaker 6>one liked him. He was he was one of those

125
00:07:41.079 --> 00:07:43.959
<v Speaker 6>guys if you went on on his property, come out

126
00:07:43.959 --> 00:07:45.839
<v Speaker 6>with a shotgun and threaten you.

127
00:07:45.959 --> 00:07:46.639
<v Speaker 2>Oh beautiful.

128
00:07:46.720 --> 00:07:50.399
<v Speaker 6>Yeah. But it was also a wife beater, and so

129
00:07:50.399 --> 00:07:53.639
<v Speaker 6>so his wife left him and he became just a

130
00:07:53.680 --> 00:07:57.279
<v Speaker 6>bitter old man. And at that point the house was

131
00:07:57.360 --> 00:08:00.160
<v Speaker 6>only a quarter of the size that it was when

132
00:08:00.240 --> 00:08:03.000
<v Speaker 6>when I was in it, because it was a cabin

133
00:08:03.120 --> 00:08:06.800
<v Speaker 6>and they built they built additions onto the cabin and

134
00:08:06.839 --> 00:08:10.399
<v Speaker 6>made it like it was like a four bedroom house

135
00:08:10.560 --> 00:08:11.240
<v Speaker 6>out of it.

136
00:08:11.240 --> 00:08:13.480
<v Speaker 2>It was an old place on top of that, Yeah.

137
00:08:13.480 --> 00:08:16.199
<v Speaker 6>Well it was. It'd been there since the eighteen hundreds.

138
00:08:16.279 --> 00:08:19.879
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, okay, you're out of We never talked about it.

139
00:08:19.920 --> 00:08:20.759
<v Speaker 2>You're out of Canada.

140
00:08:20.839 --> 00:08:26.040
<v Speaker 6>Yes, yes. At that point, my hometown was Halifax, Nova Scotia.

141
00:08:26.079 --> 00:08:30.360
<v Speaker 6>It was a Kearney Lake area which became in the

142
00:08:30.639 --> 00:08:34.000
<v Speaker 6>in the early eighties part of the city, but prior

143
00:08:34.039 --> 00:08:35.399
<v Speaker 6>to that it was part of the county.

144
00:08:35.480 --> 00:08:39.039
<v Speaker 2>Gotcha. Okay, So that was that was your earliest stuff.

145
00:08:39.159 --> 00:08:43.639
<v Speaker 6>That was the earliest stuff. But we started having UFOs

146
00:08:43.679 --> 00:08:48.440
<v Speaker 6>following us and that I remember being four years old

147
00:08:48.600 --> 00:08:52.279
<v Speaker 6>and seeing UFOs every day. It was day or night,

148
00:08:52.360 --> 00:08:55.600
<v Speaker 6>it didn't matter. In the daytime, it would be a

149
00:08:55.639 --> 00:09:02.159
<v Speaker 6>silver oblong object, kind of like a football shape, and

150
00:09:02.519 --> 00:09:05.200
<v Speaker 6>as soon as I I or anyone noticed it, it

151
00:09:05.240 --> 00:09:08.799
<v Speaker 6>would do like a stagger around and then and then

152
00:09:08.960 --> 00:09:10.159
<v Speaker 6>fly off in a direction.

153
00:09:11.200 --> 00:09:12.360
<v Speaker 2>Did it always look the same?

154
00:09:12.440 --> 00:09:15.399
<v Speaker 6>Yeah, okay, and this is this is in in the

155
00:09:15.440 --> 00:09:19.519
<v Speaker 6>early eighties, so it's it's we didn't have drones like

156
00:09:19.639 --> 00:09:24.879
<v Speaker 6>we do now, but even it's more in kind like

157
00:09:24.919 --> 00:09:28.240
<v Speaker 6>a tick tack like the tic tac I think. But

158
00:09:28.480 --> 00:09:32.120
<v Speaker 6>around that same time, in my bedroom I had blue

159
00:09:32.159 --> 00:09:35.799
<v Speaker 6>and red lights like orb like things flying around me

160
00:09:36.080 --> 00:09:38.919
<v Speaker 6>and the red one touched my belly and burnt me,

161
00:09:39.320 --> 00:09:41.679
<v Speaker 6>and I flipped my lid and ran to my parents.

162
00:09:42.000 --> 00:09:42.720
<v Speaker 2>How were you?

163
00:09:42.840 --> 00:09:43.399
<v Speaker 6>I was four?

164
00:09:43.600 --> 00:09:46.279
<v Speaker 2>Oh, okay, And.

165
00:09:46.240 --> 00:09:49.440
<v Speaker 6>They thought that I'd rolled over, And it was in

166
00:09:49.480 --> 00:09:51.840
<v Speaker 6>the summer, so it was hot and I was sweaty,

167
00:09:51.960 --> 00:09:55.240
<v Speaker 6>and they thought I'd rolled over and stuck my belly

168
00:09:55.240 --> 00:09:57.919
<v Speaker 6>against the plug. But it wasn't the case. But I

169
00:09:57.960 --> 00:10:02.080
<v Speaker 6>had like a three prong burn just above my belly,

170
00:10:02.240 --> 00:10:05.279
<v Speaker 6>but similar to the shape of that, but the opposite

171
00:10:05.320 --> 00:10:08.639
<v Speaker 6>direction to what it should have been. So, because you know,

172
00:10:08.759 --> 00:10:12.519
<v Speaker 6>the three prong one is usually on the bottom, but

173
00:10:12.600 --> 00:10:14.399
<v Speaker 6>this was reversed like a triangle.

174
00:10:14.600 --> 00:10:16.879
<v Speaker 2>Even so, and I don't think you could lay against

175
00:10:16.960 --> 00:10:18.360
<v Speaker 2>that and cause that to happen.

176
00:10:18.600 --> 00:10:21.480
<v Speaker 6>It shouldn't. I think it was more of them trying

177
00:10:21.519 --> 00:10:25.080
<v Speaker 6>to explain it to me to calm me down. Yeah,

178
00:10:25.120 --> 00:10:27.960
<v Speaker 6>but they I would talk about it in public and

179
00:10:28.480 --> 00:10:30.639
<v Speaker 6>they would say, no, no, don't do that, right because

180
00:10:30.639 --> 00:10:33.879
<v Speaker 6>they didn't want me to get ostracized for being a weirdo.

181
00:10:35.679 --> 00:10:40.440
<v Speaker 6>But I here, I am doing this, so lean.

182
00:10:41.039 --> 00:10:42.919
<v Speaker 2>You have to. But honestly, you just have to be

183
00:10:42.960 --> 00:10:44.240
<v Speaker 2>yourself and not worry about it.

184
00:10:44.320 --> 00:10:47.159
<v Speaker 6>Yeah, if people don't like it. Then they're not people

185
00:10:47.200 --> 00:10:48.039
<v Speaker 6>that you weren't around.

186
00:10:48.200 --> 00:10:49.080
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, exactly.

187
00:10:49.240 --> 00:10:54.879
<v Speaker 6>But the UFOs after that, they didn't come into the bedroom,

188
00:10:54.919 --> 00:10:58.519
<v Speaker 6>like the entities didn't come into the bedroom. Bedroom. But

189
00:10:59.080 --> 00:11:01.600
<v Speaker 6>a couple of years later, I was around six years

190
00:11:01.600 --> 00:11:05.120
<v Speaker 6>old and I got lost in the woods, and it

191
00:11:05.159 --> 00:11:07.639
<v Speaker 6>was like nature itself protected me.

192
00:11:07.840 --> 00:11:08.600
<v Speaker 2>At that time.

193
00:11:08.679 --> 00:11:12.879
<v Speaker 6>But I somehow got a two day walk away from

194
00:11:12.919 --> 00:11:15.759
<v Speaker 6>home by adults, and I was like six years old.

195
00:11:15.799 --> 00:11:19.840
<v Speaker 6>I got two days away in a matter of twelve hours. Wow,

196
00:11:19.919 --> 00:11:21.840
<v Speaker 6>So I don't know what happened.

197
00:11:22.440 --> 00:11:25.559
<v Speaker 2>Why you got lost? You remember, like why you got lost?

198
00:11:25.679 --> 00:11:31.279
<v Speaker 6>I remember that I was chasing a bunny and then

199
00:11:31.559 --> 00:11:35.159
<v Speaker 6>all of a sudden I didn't recognize my surrounding and

200
00:11:35.639 --> 00:11:38.159
<v Speaker 6>I ran for a bit and then I found this

201
00:11:38.240 --> 00:11:41.600
<v Speaker 6>big oak tree and I just sat under it and

202
00:11:41.679 --> 00:11:44.440
<v Speaker 6>stayed there, and it kind of felt like it was

203
00:11:44.559 --> 00:11:47.720
<v Speaker 6>protecting me, and so I felt comfortable enough that I

204
00:11:47.759 --> 00:11:52.000
<v Speaker 6>fell asleep and I woke up to my dad and

205
00:11:52.320 --> 00:11:56.360
<v Speaker 6>a tracker finding me, and they woke me up and

206
00:11:56.720 --> 00:11:59.879
<v Speaker 6>they were of course, my dad was very upset. Why

207
00:12:00.039 --> 00:12:00.759
<v Speaker 6>did you run off?

208
00:12:00.759 --> 00:12:04.120
<v Speaker 2>Blah blah blah.

209
00:12:04.159 --> 00:12:07.039
<v Speaker 6>I was grounded for a month after that. You're not

210
00:12:07.240 --> 00:12:07.960
<v Speaker 6>leaving this year.

211
00:12:08.559 --> 00:12:09.919
<v Speaker 2>But how did they track you?

212
00:12:10.600 --> 00:12:14.639
<v Speaker 6>The tracker he followed the footsteps.

213
00:12:14.039 --> 00:12:16.360
<v Speaker 2>But you said you didn't go very far, but you

214
00:12:16.360 --> 00:12:17.440
<v Speaker 2>were found two days away.

215
00:12:17.600 --> 00:12:20.080
<v Speaker 6>I found I was found two days away, but it

216
00:12:20.159 --> 00:12:23.960
<v Speaker 6>was they tracked me by footsteps, and I don't know

217
00:12:24.039 --> 00:12:27.080
<v Speaker 6>how that could be because it was so young. And

218
00:12:27.120 --> 00:12:30.320
<v Speaker 6>they only told me this story a few more times,

219
00:12:30.399 --> 00:12:33.039
<v Speaker 6>like from their point of view, and I told them

220
00:12:33.080 --> 00:12:35.879
<v Speaker 6>my point of view. I got two days away in

221
00:12:35.919 --> 00:12:40.559
<v Speaker 6>twelve hours, but it was like I said.

222
00:12:40.440 --> 00:12:43.440
<v Speaker 2>Ran right, right, but you don't remember doing that? And

223
00:12:43.480 --> 00:12:45.279
<v Speaker 2>did they find you under the oak tree?

224
00:12:45.399 --> 00:12:45.600
<v Speaker 6>Yeah?

225
00:12:45.639 --> 00:12:47.919
<v Speaker 2>So the oak tree itself was like two days away

226
00:12:47.919 --> 00:12:49.080
<v Speaker 2>from where you got into the woods.

227
00:12:49.120 --> 00:12:49.320
<v Speaker 6>Yeah.

228
00:12:49.360 --> 00:12:50.240
<v Speaker 2>Wow, that's crazy.

229
00:12:50.679 --> 00:12:52.840
<v Speaker 6>It was missing time easily.

230
00:12:52.960 --> 00:12:55.200
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, but it's weird that they were able to track you.

231
00:12:55.600 --> 00:12:59.519
<v Speaker 6>It is it's like there's a physical, physical way that

232
00:12:59.559 --> 00:13:02.240
<v Speaker 6>they were able to find me, because otherwise they wouldn't

233
00:13:02.279 --> 00:13:05.720
<v Speaker 6>have never found me, right, So something protected me, that's

234
00:13:05.720 --> 00:13:06.600
<v Speaker 6>all I can say.

235
00:13:06.799 --> 00:13:08.480
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, Yeah, that's that's wild.

236
00:13:09.519 --> 00:13:11.600
<v Speaker 6>But it's not the only time in my life I've

237
00:13:11.600 --> 00:13:15.480
<v Speaker 6>had lost time. Oh Okay, when I was in my twenties,

238
00:13:15.799 --> 00:13:19.200
<v Speaker 6>I was in the military and I got hurt and

239
00:13:19.519 --> 00:13:23.679
<v Speaker 6>I lost three years of memories, but at that time

240
00:13:24.480 --> 00:13:27.879
<v Speaker 6>it was I lost time as well because they couldn't

241
00:13:28.159 --> 00:13:30.120
<v Speaker 6>locate me for three days.

242
00:13:30.360 --> 00:13:30.720
<v Speaker 2>Wow.

243
00:13:30.759 --> 00:13:35.000
<v Speaker 6>So and this is only from reports that were given

244
00:13:35.080 --> 00:13:37.759
<v Speaker 6>to me. I don't remember any of that time.

245
00:13:38.399 --> 00:13:40.960
<v Speaker 2>And was it a situation where again you were found

246
00:13:41.080 --> 00:13:42.960
<v Speaker 2>outside of where you should have been able to get to.

247
00:13:43.120 --> 00:13:46.879
<v Speaker 6>I think so they were perplexed as how I could

248
00:13:47.600 --> 00:13:51.200
<v Speaker 6>get as far as I did. There's not a lot

249
00:13:51.240 --> 00:13:55.399
<v Speaker 6>that I actually remember of that time because I.

250
00:13:55.320 --> 00:14:00.519
<v Speaker 7>Was injured, how badly injured? I was severely concut. Okay,

251
00:14:00.559 --> 00:14:03.919
<v Speaker 7>so it was it was just very odd. It was

252
00:14:04.000 --> 00:14:08.720
<v Speaker 7>like I went five hundred kilo plumb. I'm not sure

253
00:14:08.799 --> 00:14:11.559
<v Speaker 7>what that would be in miles. It was five hundred

254
00:14:11.639 --> 00:14:14.120
<v Speaker 7>kilometers away from where I should have been.

255
00:14:14.399 --> 00:14:16.200
<v Speaker 2>Let's see, I don't know what that breaks down into

256
00:14:16.279 --> 00:14:17.080
<v Speaker 2>in miles either.

257
00:14:17.279 --> 00:14:19.600
<v Speaker 6>It's about two hundred and fifty roughly.

258
00:14:19.679 --> 00:14:21.559
<v Speaker 2>Okay, that's a good distance.

259
00:14:21.240 --> 00:14:25.039
<v Speaker 6>It is, and average you can do about thirty to

260
00:14:25.120 --> 00:14:26.240
<v Speaker 6>sixty miles in a day.

261
00:14:26.320 --> 00:14:29.480
<v Speaker 2>Three hundred and ten point seven miles there you go. Yeah,

262
00:14:29.519 --> 00:14:31.840
<v Speaker 2>that's that's that's a lot. That's a lot, especially with

263
00:14:31.919 --> 00:14:32.559
<v Speaker 2>a concussion.

264
00:14:32.679 --> 00:14:35.799
<v Speaker 6>Yeah, but I have a strong will to live when

265
00:14:35.799 --> 00:14:38.879
<v Speaker 6>I was fourteen, We go go back a bit. Yeah,

266
00:14:38.919 --> 00:14:42.600
<v Speaker 6>when I was four fourteen, I was poisoned by bleach.

267
00:14:42.759 --> 00:14:46.759
<v Speaker 6>Oh my guy prepared donairs on bleach. He killed two

268
00:14:46.840 --> 00:14:51.120
<v Speaker 6>people and six others like myself, were affected by it.

269
00:14:51.159 --> 00:14:52.240
<v Speaker 2>What did this guy do?

270
00:14:52.519 --> 00:14:54.440
<v Speaker 6>He prepared donair on bleach.

271
00:14:54.720 --> 00:14:55.440
<v Speaker 2>What's donair?

272
00:14:55.759 --> 00:14:58.960
<v Speaker 6>Donair is like a shwarm up, but that is either

273
00:15:00.200 --> 00:15:03.279
<v Speaker 6>it's meat, meat that's been cooked on a spit and

274
00:15:03.320 --> 00:15:09.360
<v Speaker 6>shaved off with tomatoes and a creamy sauce, and it's

275
00:15:09.399 --> 00:15:10.320
<v Speaker 6>on a peda.

276
00:15:10.120 --> 00:15:11.759
<v Speaker 2>And he just added bleach into it.

277
00:15:12.039 --> 00:15:15.080
<v Speaker 6>Well, he poured bleach on the board like he was

278
00:15:15.120 --> 00:15:17.399
<v Speaker 6>going to clean it and then never cleaned it off. Oh,

279
00:15:17.559 --> 00:15:19.120
<v Speaker 6>and then prepared food on it.

280
00:15:19.159 --> 00:15:20.720
<v Speaker 2>Was that intentional on his part?

281
00:15:20.799 --> 00:15:24.440
<v Speaker 6>I think so, because he ran He ran away after

282
00:15:24.480 --> 00:15:27.399
<v Speaker 6>that and no one could find him, and they shut down.

283
00:15:27.600 --> 00:15:31.559
<v Speaker 6>They shut down the place, complicated, confiscated whatever they could.

284
00:15:31.720 --> 00:15:35.200
<v Speaker 6>But wow, Yeah, I led internally for a month and

285
00:15:35.320 --> 00:15:38.240
<v Speaker 6>passed away three times. Oh man, I say three times.

286
00:15:38.279 --> 00:15:41.360
<v Speaker 6>It was more more more than that, but that I

287
00:15:41.399 --> 00:15:42.000
<v Speaker 6>can remember.

288
00:15:42.200 --> 00:15:44.440
<v Speaker 2>Did you did you have any in your death.

289
00:15:44.240 --> 00:15:48.519
<v Speaker 6>Experiences or yeah? Yeah, I the last one. I was

290
00:15:48.559 --> 00:15:54.519
<v Speaker 6>gone for fourteen minutes and I had no no brain function,

291
00:15:54.840 --> 00:15:57.840
<v Speaker 6>and they they were calling time and death and I

292
00:15:57.840 --> 00:15:58.720
<v Speaker 6>sat up on them.

293
00:16:02.279 --> 00:16:04.159
<v Speaker 2>What did you experience in that time?

294
00:16:04.399 --> 00:16:07.799
<v Speaker 6>I know that I was on a dirt road, kind

295
00:16:07.840 --> 00:16:10.480
<v Speaker 6>of like a desert dirt road, and I was walking

296
00:16:10.639 --> 00:16:13.360
<v Speaker 6>either I don't know if it was a sunrise or sunset,

297
00:16:13.399 --> 00:16:15.440
<v Speaker 6>but it was the sun was low in the sky

298
00:16:15.639 --> 00:16:18.679
<v Speaker 6>and I was walking towards it, and I heard a

299
00:16:18.799 --> 00:16:22.360
<v Speaker 6>voice say, you can come here and have peace for yourself,

300
00:16:22.480 --> 00:16:25.200
<v Speaker 6>or go back and have peace for your family. And

301
00:16:25.279 --> 00:16:28.240
<v Speaker 6>so I turned around and came back. But there's some

302
00:16:28.399 --> 00:16:32.320
<v Speaker 6>imagery to do with that. Something guided me back, and

303
00:16:32.360 --> 00:16:35.360
<v Speaker 6>it was it was a dragon, but it was not

304
00:16:35.519 --> 00:16:40.639
<v Speaker 6>your usual dragon. My family Cress is a sea dragon.

305
00:16:41.480 --> 00:16:45.399
<v Speaker 6>It's a royal sea dragon with twin lions, and that

306
00:16:45.960 --> 00:16:50.279
<v Speaker 6>basically symbolizes that you're part of royalty. This is the

307
00:16:50.279 --> 00:16:54.159
<v Speaker 6>British Royalty anyway. So I saw that and they guided

308
00:16:54.279 --> 00:16:56.840
<v Speaker 6>me back to myself, and then I sat up and

309
00:16:56.919 --> 00:16:58.360
<v Speaker 6>freaked out everyone.

310
00:16:59.519 --> 00:17:02.639
<v Speaker 2>Obviously he recovered from the bleach poisoning I did.

311
00:17:03.000 --> 00:17:06.680
<v Speaker 6>It still kind of affects me. My My stomach lining

312
00:17:06.799 --> 00:17:09.680
<v Speaker 6>is weak because of it, yeah, and prone to tearing.

313
00:17:09.920 --> 00:17:12.359
<v Speaker 6>So I have to be careful what I eat and

314
00:17:12.440 --> 00:17:13.240
<v Speaker 6>how much I eat.

315
00:17:13.559 --> 00:17:16.759
<v Speaker 2>Did you know that there's actually like a whole drinking

316
00:17:16.880 --> 00:17:21.359
<v Speaker 2>bleach movement. Yeah, it's they believe that bleach will clean

317
00:17:21.480 --> 00:17:23.720
<v Speaker 2>you out, which, yes, it will.

318
00:17:24.000 --> 00:17:28.000
<v Speaker 6>Definitely clean you out. It'll burn your guts it and you'll.

319
00:17:27.839 --> 00:17:31.640
<v Speaker 2>Bleed behind the Bastards did a whole like two part

320
00:17:31.759 --> 00:17:34.559
<v Speaker 2>series or something on it. I can't remember if if

321
00:17:34.599 --> 00:17:37.519
<v Speaker 2>they consider themselves a church or what, but they're very

322
00:17:37.559 --> 00:17:40.839
<v Speaker 2>pro drinking bleach and they think it's the solution everything.

323
00:17:41.000 --> 00:17:44.279
<v Speaker 2>And uh when COVID hit and Trump said saying about,

324
00:17:44.279 --> 00:17:46.079
<v Speaker 2>you know, if we could just get the bleach inside

325
00:17:46.079 --> 00:17:49.559
<v Speaker 2>of you, they took that as him like advocating what

326
00:17:49.599 --> 00:17:50.119
<v Speaker 2>they were doing.

327
00:17:50.160 --> 00:17:50.440
<v Speaker 6>Wow.

328
00:17:50.559 --> 00:17:52.720
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, so it's.

329
00:17:52.559 --> 00:17:55.200
<v Speaker 6>Scary and people call me weird.

330
00:17:57.279 --> 00:17:59.440
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, you didn't do it intentionally, no.

331
00:18:00.000 --> 00:18:03.279
<v Speaker 6>Oh man. But it's when when people do that sort

332
00:18:03.279 --> 00:18:07.319
<v Speaker 6>of thing, it's like the whole snake wrangling right in church.

333
00:18:07.599 --> 00:18:09.559
<v Speaker 2>I would much rather play with a snake.

334
00:18:09.519 --> 00:18:12.440
<v Speaker 6>Yeah yeah, but the snake will still bite you.

335
00:18:12.799 --> 00:18:16.200
<v Speaker 2>Yeah. Yeah. Well, so it's the Genesis two Church of

336
00:18:16.279 --> 00:18:21.680
<v Speaker 2>Health and Healing. They promote Miracle Mineral solution, a toxic

337
00:18:21.799 --> 00:18:25.759
<v Speaker 2>liquid that is essentially industrial bleach. As a fake miracle

338
00:18:25.839 --> 00:18:29.359
<v Speaker 2>cure for autism, cancer, COVID and nearly all disease.

339
00:18:29.519 --> 00:18:32.960
<v Speaker 6>Wow, and how many of their members of the past, because.

340
00:18:32.880 --> 00:18:35.200
<v Speaker 2>Oh, I'm sure a lot. It was some terrifying stuff

341
00:18:35.200 --> 00:18:37.599
<v Speaker 2>they were reading on behind the bastards where they like

342
00:18:37.640 --> 00:18:40.920
<v Speaker 2>people were like, oh, my kid is pooping out all

343
00:18:40.960 --> 00:18:44.720
<v Speaker 2>this this weird white stuff, and like they're going, yeah,

344
00:18:44.720 --> 00:18:49.119
<v Speaker 2>that's his intestines, you know, that's that's wow. Yeah, it is.

345
00:18:49.240 --> 00:18:50.519
<v Speaker 2>It's nuts.

346
00:18:50.559 --> 00:18:53.319
<v Speaker 6>It boggles the mind that people people will go along

347
00:18:53.359 --> 00:18:57.240
<v Speaker 6>with that. But a lot of cults they poison themselves. Yeah,

348
00:18:57.960 --> 00:19:01.720
<v Speaker 6>the death cults and that, Yeah, that is that doesn't

349
00:19:01.759 --> 00:19:04.519
<v Speaker 6>get anything weird for you on your on your show.

350
00:19:06.200 --> 00:19:08.200
<v Speaker 2>But yeah, like I didn't know that was a thing.

351
00:19:08.400 --> 00:19:11.759
<v Speaker 2>And I was absolutely shocked that anyone can think drinking

352
00:19:11.839 --> 00:19:13.920
<v Speaker 2>industrial bleach is somehow a cure.

353
00:19:14.359 --> 00:19:19.160
<v Speaker 6>It's it's odd. I've heard of people eating uh pods

354
00:19:19.519 --> 00:19:21.039
<v Speaker 6>the time, laundry pods.

355
00:19:21.160 --> 00:19:24.400
<v Speaker 2>That was that was a stupid challenge that people put out.

356
00:19:25.279 --> 00:19:27.759
<v Speaker 6>But but the thing is that this is how many

357
00:19:27.839 --> 00:19:30.839
<v Speaker 6>people can lead off the edge of the cliff and

358
00:19:30.880 --> 00:19:34.680
<v Speaker 6>not go over myself. That's usually the case that the

359
00:19:34.720 --> 00:19:37.480
<v Speaker 6>person person that eggs it on is not the person

360
00:19:37.519 --> 00:19:38.400
<v Speaker 6>that's going to do it.

361
00:19:38.839 --> 00:19:42.039
<v Speaker 2>The thing too about like a church of drinking bleach.

362
00:19:42.079 --> 00:19:45.279
<v Speaker 2>It's like you're going to kill all your your members eventually.

363
00:19:45.160 --> 00:19:48.240
<v Speaker 6>Yeah, eventually you're gonna be the last one alive.

364
00:19:48.440 --> 00:19:51.119
<v Speaker 2>I mean, did you ingest a lot when you when

365
00:19:51.279 --> 00:19:52.400
<v Speaker 2>you were you know, exposed?

366
00:19:52.440 --> 00:19:56.400
<v Speaker 6>It was it was maybe a tea spoon, but it

367
00:19:56.440 --> 00:19:59.039
<v Speaker 6>was it was enough that a burnt burnt holes in

368
00:19:59.079 --> 00:20:03.839
<v Speaker 6>my stomach lining and I led internally. On top of it,

369
00:20:03.960 --> 00:20:08.279
<v Speaker 6>the meat that he fed us was also ransom. Oh awesome,

370
00:20:08.519 --> 00:20:12.680
<v Speaker 6>And so I had seminole poisoning and bleach poisoning at

371
00:20:12.680 --> 00:20:16.000
<v Speaker 6>the same time. So I was quarantined. And actually the

372
00:20:16.039 --> 00:20:21.160
<v Speaker 6>only thing I remember is wandering around the hospital room

373
00:20:21.279 --> 00:20:24.319
<v Speaker 6>saying I'm not going to die. And then my dad

374
00:20:24.359 --> 00:20:28.119
<v Speaker 6>snapped me out of my psychosis at that point and said,

375
00:20:28.279 --> 00:20:32.720
<v Speaker 6>stop doing that. You're making me feel Isn't that good?

376
00:20:33.319 --> 00:20:34.279
<v Speaker 6>You're freaking me out.

377
00:20:34.920 --> 00:20:36.799
<v Speaker 2>At least you weren't saying I am going to die.

378
00:20:36.839 --> 00:20:38.039
<v Speaker 2>That would be a lot more freaky.

379
00:20:38.160 --> 00:20:41.960
<v Speaker 6>That would be a lot more freaky. But the last

380
00:20:42.039 --> 00:20:45.359
<v Speaker 6>time I passed, he had gone home to get changed

381
00:20:45.400 --> 00:20:47.759
<v Speaker 6>in that and then when he came back, all the

382
00:20:47.799 --> 00:20:50.640
<v Speaker 6>doctors were freaking out and he was like, what's going on?

383
00:20:51.119 --> 00:20:55.279
<v Speaker 6>Your son's okay, but he had he had passed and

384
00:20:55.960 --> 00:20:57.799
<v Speaker 6>blah blah blah, and they told him all of this.

385
00:20:58.079 --> 00:21:01.279
<v Speaker 6>And two weeks later I was least from the hospital,

386
00:21:01.920 --> 00:21:04.680
<v Speaker 6>well on the way to mending. But I think me

387
00:21:04.839 --> 00:21:09.079
<v Speaker 6>choosing to live turned the tide for me. My body

388
00:21:09.359 --> 00:21:13.160
<v Speaker 6>just started healing itself good. But yeah, it was, it was.

389
00:21:13.400 --> 00:21:14.519
<v Speaker 6>It was an intense time.

390
00:21:15.039 --> 00:21:17.400
<v Speaker 2>Yeah. I can't even imagine having to go through that

391
00:21:17.599 --> 00:21:18.279
<v Speaker 2>was the guy caught.

392
00:21:18.400 --> 00:21:24.240
<v Speaker 6>No, no, really, no, he disappeared to a country without extradition.

393
00:21:24.640 --> 00:21:24.960
<v Speaker 2>He did.

394
00:21:25.200 --> 00:21:28.000
<v Speaker 6>That's as far as they got. And he was he

395
00:21:28.079 --> 00:21:31.480
<v Speaker 6>was in his sixties. Yeah, so I don't think he

396
00:21:31.599 --> 00:21:32.519
<v Speaker 6>lasted that long.

397
00:21:32.599 --> 00:21:33.960
<v Speaker 2>Now, those are the ones who lived forever.

398
00:21:34.119 --> 00:21:42.480
<v Speaker 6>Oh yeah, true, true. But we go forward, went with

399
00:21:42.599 --> 00:21:45.400
<v Speaker 6>weird experiences around.

400
00:21:46.319 --> 00:21:46.759
<v Speaker 2>I was.

401
00:21:47.119 --> 00:21:50.079
<v Speaker 6>I was around thirty thirty years old, thirty thirty one,

402
00:21:50.279 --> 00:21:53.240
<v Speaker 6>and this is after I got out of the military

403
00:21:53.319 --> 00:21:55.880
<v Speaker 6>and all of that, and I was on my way

404
00:21:55.920 --> 00:21:58.079
<v Speaker 6>to work. I was standing at the bus stop. It

405
00:21:58.200 --> 00:22:02.000
<v Speaker 6>was around mid to late October, and I was right

406
00:22:02.000 --> 00:22:06.359
<v Speaker 6>across from what they call Africville, which was the place

407
00:22:06.440 --> 00:22:10.240
<v Speaker 6>that reached slaves from the States came to and they

408
00:22:10.279 --> 00:22:14.640
<v Speaker 6>built homes in that particular area, but the city had

409
00:22:14.799 --> 00:22:17.720
<v Speaker 6>gone in and ousted all of them and moved them

410
00:22:17.759 --> 00:22:23.880
<v Speaker 6>into the projects. Basically, they had built public housing for

411
00:22:24.519 --> 00:22:27.440
<v Speaker 6>them and they destroyed Africville. But there was a whole

412
00:22:27.640 --> 00:22:32.200
<v Speaker 6>fight that happened in that area. People had died, people

413
00:22:32.200 --> 00:22:36.160
<v Speaker 6>had been hurt in this. So I know all of

414
00:22:36.200 --> 00:22:39.480
<v Speaker 6>that history. But I was standing there mining my own business,

415
00:22:39.599 --> 00:22:42.279
<v Speaker 6>and then all of a sudden, someone screaming at me

416
00:22:42.599 --> 00:22:45.240
<v Speaker 6>in my face in Haitian. But they're not there.

417
00:22:45.480 --> 00:22:47.000
<v Speaker 2>You heard it, but they were there.

418
00:22:47.160 --> 00:22:49.480
<v Speaker 6>I heard it, and I also felt the warmth of

419
00:22:49.519 --> 00:22:52.920
<v Speaker 6>their breath on my face. And I knew it was

420
00:22:52.960 --> 00:22:55.680
<v Speaker 6>Haitian because when it was a kid, one of my

421
00:22:55.720 --> 00:22:58.519
<v Speaker 6>friends was Haitian and E spokation to me. So I

422
00:22:58.640 --> 00:23:01.880
<v Speaker 6>understood that buddy saying get out of here. So I

423
00:23:01.880 --> 00:23:06.720
<v Speaker 6>don't remember the words now, my memory's not not as

424
00:23:06.759 --> 00:23:10.759
<v Speaker 6>good as it was, but I remember he told me

425
00:23:10.799 --> 00:23:13.400
<v Speaker 6>to get the hell out of there, and my bus

426
00:23:13.440 --> 00:23:15.839
<v Speaker 6>came a couple of minutes later, so I hopped on

427
00:23:15.880 --> 00:23:18.480
<v Speaker 6>the bus and went to work. But weird stuff like

428
00:23:18.519 --> 00:23:22.559
<v Speaker 6>that happens to me all the time. The more liminal

429
00:23:23.319 --> 00:23:26.440
<v Speaker 6>work that I do, the more happened. So it's if

430
00:23:26.480 --> 00:23:29.519
<v Speaker 6>I'm in that in between place. But because I've been

431
00:23:29.599 --> 00:23:32.319
<v Speaker 6>dead so long or so many times in my life,

432
00:23:32.359 --> 00:23:34.920
<v Speaker 6>I think I'm kind of half in, half out. Yeah,

433
00:23:34.960 --> 00:23:36.920
<v Speaker 6>and so this stuff is attracted to me.

434
00:23:37.640 --> 00:23:40.400
<v Speaker 2>Was when you were fourteen? Is that the only time

435
00:23:40.400 --> 00:23:41.079
<v Speaker 2>he almost died?

436
00:23:41.200 --> 00:23:46.519
<v Speaker 6>No? No, when I was born, I was born without breath. Okay,

437
00:23:46.680 --> 00:23:49.720
<v Speaker 6>the stress of it stopped my heart, so they resuscitated

438
00:23:49.839 --> 00:23:52.880
<v Speaker 6>me and all of that, and then at four years old,

439
00:23:53.160 --> 00:23:57.599
<v Speaker 6>I drowned and had to be resuscitated. Then, so I'm

440
00:23:57.599 --> 00:23:58.440
<v Speaker 6>a fighter.

441
00:23:58.519 --> 00:24:01.759
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, no kidding, but yeah, it's no close calls in

442
00:24:01.799 --> 00:24:02.400
<v Speaker 2>the military.

443
00:24:02.559 --> 00:24:07.119
<v Speaker 6>No, no, well one one. But it was a rocket

444
00:24:07.480 --> 00:24:10.720
<v Speaker 6>grenade hit a car next to me and blew me

445
00:24:10.839 --> 00:24:14.720
<v Speaker 6>against a wall and I got concussed and uh and

446
00:24:14.799 --> 00:24:16.039
<v Speaker 6>shrapnel in my face.

447
00:24:16.200 --> 00:24:19.039
<v Speaker 2>So was that the Missing Time episodes? Yeah?

448
00:24:19.160 --> 00:24:20.960
<v Speaker 6>Yeah, it's it's pretty bad.

449
00:24:21.680 --> 00:24:22.440
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, it sounds it.

450
00:24:23.160 --> 00:24:27.319
<v Speaker 6>I have a little bit of PTSD from from moments

451
00:24:27.400 --> 00:24:31.440
<v Speaker 6>like that. It's it's not just that, it's the feeling

452
00:24:31.839 --> 00:24:35.160
<v Speaker 6>like you're you can't stand down, that you can't that

453
00:24:35.240 --> 00:24:38.960
<v Speaker 6>you can't feel safe. Yeah, you're always on alert. You're

454
00:24:39.000 --> 00:24:43.079
<v Speaker 6>always uh fireflight. It took a lot of years to

455
00:24:43.119 --> 00:24:43.759
<v Speaker 6>get over that.

456
00:24:44.640 --> 00:24:46.160
<v Speaker 2>Did you ever completely get over it?

457
00:24:46.240 --> 00:24:50.119
<v Speaker 6>No? No, I'll have moments where we're all panic, and

458
00:24:50.559 --> 00:24:54.440
<v Speaker 6>I've learned methods to medicate it, and it's only through

459
00:24:55.200 --> 00:25:00.960
<v Speaker 6>meditative practices and uh self awareness. I'll get into a panic,

460
00:25:01.519 --> 00:25:05.200
<v Speaker 6>my heart rays, and I'll start to have flashbacks a

461
00:25:05.240 --> 00:25:08.680
<v Speaker 6>little bit, and then something will click in my mind

462
00:25:08.960 --> 00:25:12.480
<v Speaker 6>and I'll realize I am not there, and so I

463
00:25:13.000 --> 00:25:16.799
<v Speaker 6>take a few deep breaths and and kind of kind

464
00:25:16.839 --> 00:25:21.039
<v Speaker 6>of stepped back mentally from the situation. But it's always there.

465
00:25:21.160 --> 00:25:22.640
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, and You've been a lot.

466
00:25:24.079 --> 00:25:25.559
<v Speaker 6>I've lived a life.

467
00:25:27.480 --> 00:25:29.880
<v Speaker 2>So going back, I know you said you had at

468
00:25:29.960 --> 00:25:33.000
<v Speaker 2>least one weird experience during the military besides the missing

469
00:25:33.039 --> 00:25:33.519
<v Speaker 2>time one.

470
00:25:33.599 --> 00:25:39.079
<v Speaker 6>Yeah, we were clearing a cave and something streached at

471
00:25:39.160 --> 00:25:42.519
<v Speaker 6>us and started throwing rocks at us. And it was

472
00:25:42.759 --> 00:25:45.680
<v Speaker 6>pale skinned and kind of looked like the rake. But

473
00:25:45.799 --> 00:25:48.720
<v Speaker 6>this is before I knew what the rake was. The

474
00:25:48.799 --> 00:25:51.599
<v Speaker 6>rake kind of gave me an idea of what that

475
00:25:51.680 --> 00:25:52.640
<v Speaker 6>thing looked like.

476
00:25:52.799 --> 00:25:55.599
<v Speaker 2>I forgot the rake was a thing until you mentioned

477
00:25:55.640 --> 00:26:00.599
<v Speaker 2>it exactly. That was that a creepy pasta Initially it was.

478
00:26:00.599 --> 00:26:06.359
<v Speaker 6>A creepy pasta. It has no reality. It was something

479
00:26:06.480 --> 00:26:09.640
<v Speaker 6>someone made up just to scare people. But this thing

480
00:26:09.799 --> 00:26:13.039
<v Speaker 6>was real. This thing was attacking us. We shot at

481
00:26:13.039 --> 00:26:15.720
<v Speaker 6>it and it ran off. We never found a body,

482
00:26:15.839 --> 00:26:18.880
<v Speaker 6>we never found blood, but we knew we had hit

483
00:26:18.920 --> 00:26:22.119
<v Speaker 6>it right. So whatever it was, it had armor.

484
00:26:22.440 --> 00:26:24.440
<v Speaker 2>And this happened with other people obviously.

485
00:26:24.599 --> 00:26:27.240
<v Speaker 6>Yeah. Yeah, there was six of us.

486
00:26:27.200 --> 00:26:28.400
<v Speaker 2>And everyone saw the same thing.

487
00:26:28.839 --> 00:26:32.359
<v Speaker 6>Two of them are dead now. But it happened well

488
00:26:32.440 --> 00:26:36.000
<v Speaker 6>after I had come home, and it's kind of we've

489
00:26:36.079 --> 00:26:41.079
<v Speaker 6>kind of lost touch. Yeah, it's a that experience. I

490
00:26:41.119 --> 00:26:45.119
<v Speaker 6>was happy to have people that experienced weirdness with.

491
00:26:45.039 --> 00:26:46.920
<v Speaker 2>Me, Yeah, especially saying like that.

492
00:26:47.039 --> 00:26:51.519
<v Speaker 6>Yeah, but recently, recently, like in the last twelve years,

493
00:26:51.680 --> 00:26:56.720
<v Speaker 6>I've had a lot more experiences of high strangeness. Okay,

494
00:26:56.920 --> 00:27:02.880
<v Speaker 6>like synchronistic things like the number one one one occurs regularly, Okay,

495
00:27:02.960 --> 00:27:07.640
<v Speaker 6>and I'll be making a video but up like a

496
00:27:08.000 --> 00:27:12.240
<v Speaker 6>short and without realizing it, I'll make it one point

497
00:27:12.359 --> 00:27:16.960
<v Speaker 6>one one minute, eleven seconds and it's just it'll happen.

498
00:27:17.000 --> 00:27:21.279
<v Speaker 6>I'll be Okay, that's weird. But and then after having

499
00:27:21.319 --> 00:27:24.880
<v Speaker 6>that experience, things will kick off, like I'll see we

500
00:27:25.000 --> 00:27:27.400
<v Speaker 6>have what we call our house fairy. It's less, it's

501
00:27:27.440 --> 00:27:31.240
<v Speaker 6>been around less since our cat passed, but it's it

502
00:27:31.440 --> 00:27:34.240
<v Speaker 6>still comes in and it's about a four foot tall

503
00:27:34.359 --> 00:27:41.400
<v Speaker 6>hairy creature. Okay, in Slavac uh they by mythology that's

504
00:27:41.599 --> 00:27:45.680
<v Speaker 6>a domovic kind of like a brownie. So we have that.

505
00:27:46.039 --> 00:27:49.319
<v Speaker 6>I'll see that. Ever so often, I've seen doppelgangers of

506
00:27:49.400 --> 00:27:52.279
<v Speaker 6>my wife come into the bedroom and I'll be I'll

507
00:27:52.279 --> 00:27:55.599
<v Speaker 6>react to her. A few times have been on the show,

508
00:27:55.839 --> 00:27:58.200
<v Speaker 6>and I react to it and there's no one there,

509
00:27:59.319 --> 00:28:02.079
<v Speaker 6>and the outfit that she was wearing that I saw

510
00:28:02.119 --> 00:28:03.839
<v Speaker 6>her in is not what she's wearing.

511
00:28:04.160 --> 00:28:06.039
<v Speaker 2>So well, for a moment, let's go back to the

512
00:28:06.160 --> 00:28:08.480
<v Speaker 2>to the fairy. What does it look like like you

513
00:28:08.519 --> 00:28:09.599
<v Speaker 2>physically see this thing?

514
00:28:10.160 --> 00:28:15.599
<v Speaker 6>Yeah, it has like a brown, dark brown her everywhere,

515
00:28:16.240 --> 00:28:21.000
<v Speaker 6>cold black eyes, like a pointed muzzle like nose, and

516
00:28:21.359 --> 00:28:24.079
<v Speaker 6>it kind of like to play peek a boo. I'll

517
00:28:24.119 --> 00:28:27.200
<v Speaker 6>notice it and then it'll it'll peak around the corner

518
00:28:27.200 --> 00:28:29.720
<v Speaker 6>a few more times and then I'll hear it run off.

519
00:28:29.880 --> 00:28:33.920
<v Speaker 6>So it's odd, but because I've had so many odd things,

520
00:28:33.960 --> 00:28:35.119
<v Speaker 6>it seems normal to me.

521
00:28:36.400 --> 00:28:37.799
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I know how that goes.

522
00:28:40.599 --> 00:28:41.920

00:29:21.680 --> 00:29:23.200
<v Speaker 1>listening to right now.

537
00:29:29.319 --> 00:29:31.240
<v Speaker 2>You just kind of gloss over the little ones.

538
00:29:31.519 --> 00:29:34.640
<v Speaker 6>Yeah, But my wife and I we both saw the

539
00:29:34.680 --> 00:29:38.279
<v Speaker 6>same thing at work. We saw shadows that were whipping around.

540
00:29:38.519 --> 00:29:41.240
<v Speaker 6>We worked together for a short period of time overnight

541
00:29:41.839 --> 00:29:45.799
<v Speaker 6>and we were out putting out trash and it was

542
00:29:45.880 --> 00:29:49.519
<v Speaker 6>like a bunch of little shadows whizzed around us and

543
00:29:49.559 --> 00:29:52.200
<v Speaker 6>then flew away. But my wife, she had a physical

544
00:29:52.279 --> 00:29:56.200
<v Speaker 6>reaction to it. Her kit. She had a year after

545
00:29:56.240 --> 00:30:00.200
<v Speaker 6>we moved to Vancouver Island, my wife had kit these

546
00:30:00.200 --> 00:30:05.559
<v Speaker 6>stones and her kidneys started hurting before we experienced the shadows.

547
00:30:05.720 --> 00:30:08.960
<v Speaker 6>So when we went out, it whizzed around us and

548
00:30:09.000 --> 00:30:12.599
<v Speaker 6>then they left. She started feeling better after that, and

549
00:30:12.640 --> 00:30:15.839
<v Speaker 6>so when weirdness happens, she'll feel it in their kidneys.

550
00:30:16.160 --> 00:30:19.480
<v Speaker 2>Interesting has she shared a lot of experiences with you.

551
00:30:20.000 --> 00:30:26.279
<v Speaker 6>A couple. We did an experiment where we summoned UFOs okay,

552
00:30:26.359 --> 00:30:29.319
<v Speaker 6>and we both we both saw saw UFOs But was

553
00:30:29.359 --> 00:30:32.000
<v Speaker 6>it because we wanted to find it? Or was it

554
00:30:32.039 --> 00:30:34.279
<v Speaker 6>because it came to us? We don't know.

555
00:30:34.680 --> 00:30:35.519
<v Speaker 2>You just know it worked.

556
00:30:35.559 --> 00:30:40.079
<v Speaker 6>Yeah, And weirdness with that is video. We saw lights

557
00:30:40.119 --> 00:30:44.599
<v Speaker 6>with our naked eyes, but the video registered it as

558
00:30:44.640 --> 00:30:45.039
<v Speaker 6>a blur.

559
00:30:45.920 --> 00:30:47.960
<v Speaker 2>So what color with a light there?

560
00:30:48.200 --> 00:30:52.279
<v Speaker 6>They're like a green color. And the one my wife

561
00:30:52.319 --> 00:30:55.359
<v Speaker 6>saw went straight across the sky, and the one I

562
00:30:55.440 --> 00:30:57.440
<v Speaker 6>saw was going up into the.

563
00:30:57.400 --> 00:30:59.960
<v Speaker 2>Sky and go ahead, go ahead.

564
00:31:00.519 --> 00:31:04.000
<v Speaker 6>Now. I looked at it several times trying to figure

565
00:31:04.039 --> 00:31:07.799
<v Speaker 6>out if it was someone firing something from the from

566
00:31:07.839 --> 00:31:12.000
<v Speaker 6>the ground. But I talked to military people about that

567
00:31:12.279 --> 00:31:15.039
<v Speaker 6>and they said nothing was being fired at that time,

568
00:31:15.119 --> 00:31:19.079
<v Speaker 6>So what I saw is unconfirmed. What she saw wasn't

569
00:31:19.079 --> 00:31:22.400
<v Speaker 6>a plane either, and so that is unconfirmed. So and

570
00:31:22.440 --> 00:31:25.319
<v Speaker 6>we have the footage, but it's just a blur, like.

571
00:31:25.559 --> 00:31:27.759
<v Speaker 2>Is it a blur because it was moving too fast.

572
00:31:27.640 --> 00:31:31.519
<v Speaker 6>Or once she saw was moving slow at a slow

573
00:31:31.640 --> 00:31:34.920
<v Speaker 6>pace left or right through the clouds and then disappeared.

574
00:31:35.000 --> 00:31:39.319
<v Speaker 6>So and you can see you can see the drink.

575
00:31:39.440 --> 00:31:43.680
<v Speaker 6>You can see the blur moving across the screen slowly,

576
00:31:43.839 --> 00:31:46.359
<v Speaker 6>and then it moves behind a cloud and disappears. The

577
00:31:46.359 --> 00:31:50.839
<v Speaker 6>blur is no more. It's like an anomaly in the footage.

578
00:31:50.480 --> 00:31:53.039
<v Speaker 2>Because was it about the same size as what she saw?

579
00:31:53.160 --> 00:31:54.440
<v Speaker 6>Yeah, Oh, it was weird.

580
00:31:54.839 --> 00:31:56.799
<v Speaker 2>Well, I'm always fascinated by that because I think our

581
00:31:56.839 --> 00:31:59.599
<v Speaker 2>brains are probably picking up more information than is actually

582
00:32:00.079 --> 00:32:02.559
<v Speaker 2>visible spectrum, and it's just kind of putting it into

583
00:32:02.559 --> 00:32:03.599
<v Speaker 2>the visual spectrum.

584
00:32:03.640 --> 00:32:06.759
<v Speaker 6>Well, that's something I didn't mention. I was born blind. Oh,

585
00:32:06.920 --> 00:32:11.160
<v Speaker 6>I was so severely cross eyed that the only vision

586
00:32:11.279 --> 00:32:12.720
<v Speaker 6>I had was infrared.

587
00:32:12.880 --> 00:32:14.680
<v Speaker 2>Really, yeah, I didn't even though that was a thing.

588
00:32:15.279 --> 00:32:18.839
<v Speaker 6>It is, it is. You see infrared at the side

589
00:32:18.880 --> 00:32:24.400
<v Speaker 6>of your eyes. Okay, so my whole world was infrared

590
00:32:24.480 --> 00:32:27.400
<v Speaker 6>for eighteen months in my life. They did an operation

591
00:32:27.880 --> 00:32:32.000
<v Speaker 6>and took the muscle from my eyelid and split it

592
00:32:32.079 --> 00:32:35.240
<v Speaker 6>and grafted it my eyes to add the muscle that

593
00:32:35.440 --> 00:32:38.720
<v Speaker 6>was needed to straighten them. So I have my sight

594
00:32:38.920 --> 00:32:43.359
<v Speaker 6>because of an experimental surgery. At that point, I was

595
00:32:43.480 --> 00:32:46.279
<v Speaker 6>one of like three people who had that surgery, and

596
00:32:46.319 --> 00:32:47.920
<v Speaker 6>now now it's commonplace.

597
00:32:48.680 --> 00:32:50.599
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I had no idea we could see an infrared

598
00:32:50.640 --> 00:32:50.880
<v Speaker 2>at all.

599
00:32:51.079 --> 00:32:54.200
<v Speaker 6>Yeah. Yeah, So that that in and of itself made

600
00:32:54.240 --> 00:32:58.359
<v Speaker 6>me weird when as a kid, because when I painted things,

601
00:32:58.440 --> 00:33:01.160
<v Speaker 6>if I wasn't careful, I would and infra red.

602
00:33:01.319 --> 00:33:02.559
<v Speaker 2>Even after everything was thick.

603
00:33:02.720 --> 00:33:02.880
<v Speaker 6>Yeah.

604
00:33:02.960 --> 00:33:04.480
<v Speaker 2>So do you still see infrared?

605
00:33:04.559 --> 00:33:04.759
<v Speaker 6>Yeah?

606
00:33:04.799 --> 00:33:07.480
<v Speaker 2>Okay, like to what degree? Like can you see infrared

607
00:33:07.519 --> 00:33:09.599
<v Speaker 2>coming from cameras and remotes and stuff?

608
00:33:09.680 --> 00:33:14.519
<v Speaker 6>Yeah? Yeah. I'm also sensitive to sound. The military when

609
00:33:14.519 --> 00:33:17.799
<v Speaker 6>they did all their testing, they found that I heard

610
00:33:18.119 --> 00:33:23.680
<v Speaker 6>one octave less than a dog wow. And I even

611
00:33:23.839 --> 00:33:28.119
<v Speaker 6>picked up on vibrations of the guy tapping a pen

612
00:33:28.480 --> 00:33:31.519
<v Speaker 6>on the table in the room adjacent to me.

613
00:33:31.640 --> 00:33:34.640
<v Speaker 2>Man, So that must be a little bit of maddening.

614
00:33:34.880 --> 00:33:37.000
<v Speaker 6>Yeah. Yeah, Well it was so bad when I was

615
00:33:37.039 --> 00:33:41.279
<v Speaker 6>a kid. I get affected by the old TVs because

616
00:33:41.839 --> 00:33:44.440
<v Speaker 6>old tubes would hum, yeah, and it was a high

617
00:33:44.480 --> 00:33:46.960
<v Speaker 6>pitched hump, and if I was too close to it,

618
00:33:46.960 --> 00:33:49.519
<v Speaker 6>it would drive me insane. I couldn't could not be

619
00:33:49.680 --> 00:33:50.680
<v Speaker 6>in the same room with it.

620
00:33:50.799 --> 00:33:52.559
<v Speaker 2>Yeah no, I could hear that too, and it always

621
00:33:52.599 --> 00:33:53.480
<v Speaker 2>may be crazy.

622
00:33:53.880 --> 00:34:00.680
<v Speaker 6>It's it's funny, funny, how quirky the body is. If

623
00:34:00.680 --> 00:34:04.480
<v Speaker 6>you lose one one sense others pick up, pick up,

624
00:34:04.519 --> 00:34:07.759
<v Speaker 6>But it's more your body adapts to using those for

625
00:34:08.320 --> 00:34:11.000
<v Speaker 6>gathering the information it needs to move around.

626
00:34:11.199 --> 00:34:12.960
<v Speaker 2>I mean I was. I was never at a point

627
00:34:12.960 --> 00:34:14.440
<v Speaker 2>where I couldn't be in a room with the TV.

628
00:34:14.559 --> 00:34:17.239
<v Speaker 2>But like, if the TV was on but muted, I

629
00:34:17.239 --> 00:34:19.079
<v Speaker 2>could tell it was on because I'd hear it.

630
00:34:19.199 --> 00:34:23.079
<v Speaker 6>Yeah, me, me, it would. If I was too close

631
00:34:23.119 --> 00:34:27.159
<v Speaker 6>to it, it would be like, uh tonight, okay, constant humming,

632
00:34:27.280 --> 00:34:28.880
<v Speaker 6>and it would it would make me dizzy.

633
00:34:30.559 --> 00:34:33.840
<v Speaker 2>I guess you're grateful for modern TVs then, yeah.

634
00:34:33.800 --> 00:34:37.360
<v Speaker 6>Yeah, yeah, it's even even though if if I'm right

635
00:34:37.480 --> 00:34:39.840
<v Speaker 6>next to it, I can hear the electricity in it

636
00:34:40.840 --> 00:34:44.119
<v Speaker 6>less so now because I have some some hearing damage

637
00:34:44.119 --> 00:34:49.039
<v Speaker 6>from listening to loud music and life.

638
00:34:49.880 --> 00:34:52.639
<v Speaker 2>That's right, you're in the metal, who aren't you? Yeah? Yeah,

639
00:34:52.719 --> 00:34:55.519
<v Speaker 2>the wait does? Does the Queen's Right song? I only

640
00:34:55.599 --> 00:34:57.880
<v Speaker 2>Dream and Infrared have a special meaning for you.

641
00:34:58.000 --> 00:35:04.760
<v Speaker 6>Yes, it does. But I think because I'm hyper sensitive

642
00:35:04.880 --> 00:35:09.039
<v Speaker 6>to energy around me, like hearing, electricity and all of that,

643
00:35:09.760 --> 00:35:13.760
<v Speaker 6>having my senses heightened from being without true sight for

644
00:35:13.800 --> 00:35:16.960
<v Speaker 6>eighteen months kind of set me up that even that

645
00:35:17.159 --> 00:35:19.559
<v Speaker 6>makes me weird because I would hear things that other

646
00:35:19.599 --> 00:35:23.159
<v Speaker 6>people wouldn't write. I remember playing cards with my mom

647
00:35:23.280 --> 00:35:26.199
<v Speaker 6>and we started hearing voices. It was like at one

648
00:35:26.239 --> 00:35:29.880
<v Speaker 6>o'clock in the morning, and we heard voices, and I

649
00:35:29.960 --> 00:35:32.639
<v Speaker 6>started saying, what's that? And then my mom trusted me,

650
00:35:32.800 --> 00:35:34.840
<v Speaker 6>and we sat there and listened for a few minutes,

651
00:35:34.880 --> 00:35:38.000
<v Speaker 6>and we realized that it was a conversation we had

652
00:35:38.039 --> 00:35:40.440
<v Speaker 6>had earlier in the day. Oh wow, that was being

653
00:35:40.480 --> 00:35:41.840
<v Speaker 6>played back by the house.

654
00:35:42.639 --> 00:35:44.119
<v Speaker 2>I don't think I've ever heard of that before. It's

655
00:35:44.119 --> 00:35:45.280
<v Speaker 2>like a reverse Vardoga.

656
00:35:45.480 --> 00:35:49.239
<v Speaker 6>Yeah, but what happens a lot in some places. This

657
00:35:49.400 --> 00:35:53.039
<v Speaker 6>is what I call a residual hype wanting. And it

658
00:35:53.079 --> 00:35:55.559
<v Speaker 6>doesn't have to be someone who's dead. It can be

659
00:35:55.880 --> 00:35:58.880
<v Speaker 6>people that are very much alive. And all it is

660
00:35:58.880 --> 00:36:00.960
<v Speaker 6>is a recording if if you live in it in

661
00:36:01.000 --> 00:36:05.280
<v Speaker 6>an area where there's a high amount of electricity, high

662
00:36:05.320 --> 00:36:10.920
<v Speaker 6>amount of EMF nova Scotia is predominantly courts, and that

663
00:36:11.159 --> 00:36:13.960
<v Speaker 6>is known to record information.

664
00:36:14.360 --> 00:36:17.960
<v Speaker 2>Was that particular conversation emotionally charged?

665
00:36:18.159 --> 00:36:22.719
<v Speaker 6>We were talking about my grandmother, I think, and she

666
00:36:22.840 --> 00:36:26.679
<v Speaker 6>had just passed away a few years prior, and it

667
00:36:26.760 --> 00:36:31.440
<v Speaker 6>wasn't particularly emotional, but my mother did get emotional in it,

668
00:36:31.599 --> 00:36:35.280
<v Speaker 6>like she cheered up in that. But it wasn't like

669
00:36:35.559 --> 00:36:38.320
<v Speaker 6>a fight or anything like that. It was just us

670
00:36:38.360 --> 00:36:40.000
<v Speaker 6>talking about my grandmother.

671
00:36:40.119 --> 00:36:41.760
<v Speaker 2>Well maybe that was enough to give it just that

672
00:36:41.880 --> 00:36:43.599
<v Speaker 2>extra energy directly or push.

673
00:36:43.880 --> 00:36:46.480
<v Speaker 6>Yeah, that's kind of kind of a cool situation.

674
00:36:47.119 --> 00:36:50.639
<v Speaker 2>Earlier, when you said you saw UFOs growing up, I

675
00:36:50.719 --> 00:36:53.039
<v Speaker 2>mentioned the lights in your bedroom. What other types of

676
00:36:53.159 --> 00:36:54.960
<v Speaker 2>UFOs did you see? We never got to that.

677
00:36:55.000 --> 00:36:59.519
<v Speaker 6>Like at night, Well, at night they would be outside

678
00:36:59.559 --> 00:37:03.880
<v Speaker 6>my wind just above the tree line. Now my bedroom,

679
00:37:04.000 --> 00:37:07.239
<v Speaker 6>there was another room beyond it. My window didn't open

680
00:37:07.320 --> 00:37:09.880
<v Speaker 6>to the outside, but there was a window beyond that,

681
00:37:09.960 --> 00:37:12.920
<v Speaker 6>and in the summertime I would open both so I

682
00:37:12.960 --> 00:37:16.840
<v Speaker 6>could see the tree line out of the window and

683
00:37:16.920 --> 00:37:19.320
<v Speaker 6>I would see it sitting there kind of watching me

684
00:37:19.440 --> 00:37:19.960
<v Speaker 6>all the time.

685
00:37:20.039 --> 00:37:21.119
<v Speaker 2>And what did that look like?

686
00:37:21.280 --> 00:37:25.960
<v Speaker 6>It was just around orb of light, usually like blue.

687
00:37:26.039 --> 00:37:30.400
<v Speaker 6>Sometimes it was like a green color, but it would

688
00:37:30.440 --> 00:37:33.599
<v Speaker 6>change shape. It wouldn't be the same. Most of the

689
00:37:33.599 --> 00:37:37.119
<v Speaker 6>time it was just like a round object, but sometimes

690
00:37:37.199 --> 00:37:41.119
<v Speaker 6>it would kind of elongate and become the gar shape.

691
00:37:41.159 --> 00:37:43.119
<v Speaker 2>So you could see the object as well as the light.

692
00:37:43.360 --> 00:37:47.400
<v Speaker 6>Yeah, yeah, well it was depending on the on the

693
00:37:47.480 --> 00:37:50.760
<v Speaker 6>time it was at dusk, I could still see the object.

694
00:37:50.840 --> 00:37:54.599
<v Speaker 6>Later it would just be the light, but it had substance.

695
00:37:54.800 --> 00:37:57.159
<v Speaker 6>You could tell it had substance. But then as soon

696
00:37:57.199 --> 00:37:59.440
<v Speaker 6>as I paid attention to it, it would whizz off.

697
00:38:00.039 --> 00:38:02.119
<v Speaker 2>It never blinked out. It actually just flew off.

698
00:38:02.199 --> 00:38:05.119
<v Speaker 6>It just flew off. It was like someone was observing.

699
00:38:04.639 --> 00:38:07.480
<v Speaker 2>Me, right, which I mean doesn't really make any sense

700
00:38:07.639 --> 00:38:10.519
<v Speaker 2>even if the tech existed, like.

701
00:38:10.559 --> 00:38:13.280
<v Speaker 6>Why why would they be watching a kid the well.

702
00:38:13.079 --> 00:38:15.039
<v Speaker 2>But not really that, like they would have to know

703
00:38:15.079 --> 00:38:17.480
<v Speaker 2>where you were. It had to be like tracking you

704
00:38:17.519 --> 00:38:18.559
<v Speaker 2>and all this other stuff.

705
00:38:18.639 --> 00:38:21.360
<v Speaker 6>Well, it chased us a lot, really, We would be

706
00:38:21.519 --> 00:38:25.639
<v Speaker 6>out and we would notice it. My dad had a

707
00:38:25.719 --> 00:38:30.360
<v Speaker 6>version of the General League. He worked on cars a lot,

708
00:38:30.519 --> 00:38:34.480
<v Speaker 6>and so when they were filming General the Dukes of Hazards,

709
00:38:34.880 --> 00:38:38.599
<v Speaker 6>he built cars for them. That's cool, And so they

710
00:38:38.679 --> 00:38:42.920
<v Speaker 6>gave when when filming was done, they gave they gave

711
00:38:43.119 --> 00:38:46.199
<v Speaker 6>him one of the damaged cars and he rebuilt.

712
00:38:45.719 --> 00:38:48.159
<v Speaker 2>It and that was the original series. I assumed that was.

713
00:38:48.159 --> 00:38:51.960
<v Speaker 6>The original series, so it's kind of cool. Uh. And

714
00:38:52.039 --> 00:38:54.519
<v Speaker 6>he had he had the horn set up to it

715
00:38:54.079 --> 00:38:57.320
<v Speaker 6>so it was complete. It was great, but I.

716
00:38:57.280 --> 00:38:58.960
<v Speaker 2>Just really stood out in Canada.

717
00:38:59.079 --> 00:39:02.840
<v Speaker 6>Oh yeah, yeah, with the Union jacks on the side.

718
00:39:04.280 --> 00:39:08.920
<v Speaker 6>But people loved it. We went to the car shows

719
00:39:08.960 --> 00:39:10.880
<v Speaker 6>and that, and he would show it off. But this

720
00:39:11.000 --> 00:39:14.280
<v Speaker 6>one time, I remember it was following us and I said,

721
00:39:14.360 --> 00:39:18.119
<v Speaker 6>Dad and Dad, they're there, and he looked up and

722
00:39:18.159 --> 00:39:19.800
<v Speaker 6>he said, I'm going to get away from it. And

723
00:39:19.800 --> 00:39:22.880
<v Speaker 6>he hit the gas and we sped sped down the

724
00:39:22.960 --> 00:39:26.079
<v Speaker 6>road and it kept pace with us. We got to

725
00:39:26.159 --> 00:39:28.840
<v Speaker 6>like one hundred and thirty plumbers an hour and then

726
00:39:28.880 --> 00:39:32.719
<v Speaker 6>took the corner at speed and nearly White nearly flipped

727
00:39:32.760 --> 00:39:36.800
<v Speaker 6>the car. Actually there was a wild ride. And we

728
00:39:36.880 --> 00:39:39.280
<v Speaker 6>got to the house and it was in its usual

729
00:39:39.360 --> 00:39:41.360
<v Speaker 6>spot behind the house, watching us.

730
00:39:41.400 --> 00:39:43.639
<v Speaker 2>How long did this go on for, from the.

731
00:39:43.639 --> 00:39:47.159
<v Speaker 6>Age of around four to nineteen?

732
00:39:47.320 --> 00:39:50.719
<v Speaker 2>Wow? How many other people saw it besides your family.

733
00:39:51.039 --> 00:39:54.039
<v Speaker 6>Friends, cousins, people visiting.

734
00:39:54.400 --> 00:39:56.519
<v Speaker 2>Did you ever feel like it was malicious?

735
00:39:56.559 --> 00:39:59.760
<v Speaker 6>Not really, I just felt like it was watching it

736
00:39:59.760 --> 00:40:04.719
<v Speaker 6>was observing what I was doing. It almost felt like

737
00:40:04.800 --> 00:40:05.840
<v Speaker 6>it was curious.

738
00:40:05.960 --> 00:40:08.119
<v Speaker 2>Well, some of the stuff that's happened to you, I

739
00:40:08.159 --> 00:40:09.199
<v Speaker 2>guess you must stand out.

740
00:40:09.360 --> 00:40:13.400
<v Speaker 6>I guess. I guess because I'm I'm a draw to it,

741
00:40:13.679 --> 00:40:16.639
<v Speaker 6>or you're giving it energy. Yeah, yeah, it's possible that

742
00:40:16.639 --> 00:40:18.760
<v Speaker 6>that it's it's getting energy from me.

743
00:40:19.639 --> 00:40:21.199
<v Speaker 2>Do you affect electronics at all?

744
00:40:21.239 --> 00:40:25.519
<v Speaker 6>Oh? Yeah, okay, I'm polarized different because I'm a lefty

745
00:40:26.440 --> 00:40:31.320
<v Speaker 6>dad My dad, my dad was the same. He couldn't

746
00:40:31.360 --> 00:40:36.039
<v Speaker 6>wear a watch because his body would would pull the battery,

747
00:40:36.239 --> 00:40:38.079
<v Speaker 6>the electricity out of the battery and kill it.

748
00:40:38.239 --> 00:40:39.679
<v Speaker 2>You think that's because you're left handed.

749
00:40:40.039 --> 00:40:43.199
<v Speaker 6>It's it has to have something to do with that,

750
00:40:43.519 --> 00:40:47.599
<v Speaker 6>or my dad's side of the family might be polarized different.

751
00:40:47.719 --> 00:40:50.679
<v Speaker 6>We we like I was struck at nineteen. I was

752
00:40:50.719 --> 00:40:54.639
<v Speaker 6>struck by lightning, of course you were. It was it

753
00:40:54.719 --> 00:41:00.519
<v Speaker 6>was indirect. It was indirect helped it hit a in

754
00:41:00.559 --> 00:41:03.039
<v Speaker 6>front of me, had arted off and struck me and

755
00:41:03.079 --> 00:41:06.639
<v Speaker 6>blew me back twenty feet And I got up and

756
00:41:06.679 --> 00:41:10.599
<v Speaker 6>I have a diamond scar on my rib where it entered,

757
00:41:10.719 --> 00:41:13.320
<v Speaker 6>and the tip of my toe was blackened from it.

758
00:41:13.360 --> 00:41:14.679
<v Speaker 2>Is it still black? Okay?

759
00:41:15.360 --> 00:41:18.280
<v Speaker 6>It healed, It healed, but it was it was charred

760
00:41:18.360 --> 00:41:20.400
<v Speaker 6>enough that I have a white scar at the tip

761
00:41:20.400 --> 00:41:23.079
<v Speaker 6>of my toe, and I'm assuming that hurts very much.

762
00:41:23.079 --> 00:41:29.199
<v Speaker 6>So uh so, I when electrical storms start to happen,

763
00:41:29.320 --> 00:41:32.480
<v Speaker 6>I feel it. My whole body reacts to it, and

764
00:41:32.559 --> 00:41:34.280
<v Speaker 6>I run for the hills because I don't want to

765
00:41:34.320 --> 00:41:35.039
<v Speaker 6>get struck again.

766
00:41:35.079 --> 00:41:38.239
<v Speaker 2>See, I affect electronics and have a lot of these

767
00:41:38.239 --> 00:41:40.920
<v Speaker 2>same issues tho, though I've never directly been struck by lightning,

768
00:41:41.960 --> 00:41:44.760
<v Speaker 2>but no one else in my family did. Oh, I don't.

769
00:41:44.840 --> 00:41:46.719
<v Speaker 2>I don't know if it was me having the Quindalidi

770
00:41:46.800 --> 00:41:48.400
<v Speaker 2>awakening that started it or what.

771
00:41:48.559 --> 00:41:54.280
<v Speaker 6>It's possible, possible having any weirdness can make you susceptible

772
00:41:54.320 --> 00:42:00.920
<v Speaker 6>to electrical affecting electrical devices. It could be kinetic kinetic energy, Yeah,

773
00:42:01.039 --> 00:42:05.000
<v Speaker 6>psychokinetic energy that way we give off that that attracts

774
00:42:05.119 --> 00:42:08.960
<v Speaker 6>electricity to us. My wife's truck when we first got together,

775
00:42:09.159 --> 00:42:11.559
<v Speaker 6>every time I touched that truck, a blue arc would

776
00:42:11.639 --> 00:42:13.800
<v Speaker 6>hit me and shot me. Here.

777
00:42:15.599 --> 00:42:20.360
<v Speaker 2>I've found certain cars are more susceptible to me than others. Yeah,

778
00:42:20.400 --> 00:42:22.960
<v Speaker 2>and I dated a girl for a while who also

779
00:42:23.000 --> 00:42:26.639
<v Speaker 2>had massive amounts of DLINI and she would also affect electronics.

780
00:42:26.679 --> 00:42:29.559
<v Speaker 2>And we at the time had a Volkswagen Rabbit was

781
00:42:29.679 --> 00:42:31.880
<v Speaker 2>a rabbit. It wasn't a rabbit. It was just a Volkswagen.

782
00:42:32.440 --> 00:42:35.199
<v Speaker 2>And anytime, like we got into a fight in the car,

783
00:42:35.320 --> 00:42:37.440
<v Speaker 2>the car would just die. The power would just stop,

784
00:42:37.719 --> 00:42:40.320
<v Speaker 2>but it still had like lights and everything else with

785
00:42:40.360 --> 00:42:42.679
<v Speaker 2>the engine would just stop, and we'd ended up having

786
00:42:42.719 --> 00:42:44.440
<v Speaker 2>it towed to my mechanic who would look at it

787
00:42:44.519 --> 00:42:46.320
<v Speaker 2>be like, I can't find out. I can't figure out

788
00:42:46.360 --> 00:42:48.280
<v Speaker 2>why this won't start. And then two or three days

789
00:42:48.320 --> 00:42:50.360
<v Speaker 2>later it would just start on its own and be fine.

790
00:42:51.199 --> 00:42:54.480
<v Speaker 6>The anger anger kind of kind of you drew all

791
00:42:54.519 --> 00:42:56.360
<v Speaker 6>the energy out of the vehicle.

792
00:42:56.199 --> 00:42:58.559
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, yeah, or gave it too much energy and it

793
00:42:58.719 --> 00:43:01.239
<v Speaker 2>just like shut down overload. Yeah, And it took a

794
00:43:01.239 --> 00:43:03.440
<v Speaker 2>few days to dissipate and then it was fine, which

795
00:43:03.480 --> 00:43:05.639
<v Speaker 2>was great. There was no bill, but I mean still

796
00:43:05.639 --> 00:43:09.039
<v Speaker 2>it was like, right now we're stranded. Okay, oh boy,

797
00:43:09.239 --> 00:43:10.960
<v Speaker 2>we got to take a quick break. We'll be right

798
00:43:11.000 --> 00:43:15.599
<v Speaker 2>back all right, mid show break. Here some contact info

799
00:43:15.679 --> 00:43:19.159
<v Speaker 2>and a recommendation. Contact info as always Where did the

804
00:43:31.400 --> 00:43:37.679
<v Speaker 2>The Last Exit for the Lost. Now, as for a recommendation,

805
00:43:38.039 --> 00:43:44.079
<v Speaker 2>I'm gonna go with, Okay, this is a long one.

806
00:43:45.079 --> 00:43:49.639
<v Speaker 2>If it's really hot out and really humid out and

807
00:43:50.079 --> 00:43:53.760
<v Speaker 2>you decide, hey, I'm gonna go mow the lawn because

808
00:43:53.760 --> 00:43:57.559
<v Speaker 2>it's evening and it's cool, that's generally a good decision.

809
00:43:57.599 --> 00:44:00.639
<v Speaker 2>And then you go out and you do that, and

810
00:44:00.679 --> 00:44:04.639
<v Speaker 2>you have a riding mower, so it's fine and it's warm,

811
00:44:04.679 --> 00:44:08.159
<v Speaker 2>but it's tolerable, especially for someone who maybe doesn't like

812
00:44:08.199 --> 00:44:13.239
<v Speaker 2>the sun. And as you get done, you think, well,

813
00:44:13.239 --> 00:44:16.480
<v Speaker 2>I got to do a podcast in recording in about

814
00:44:16.519 --> 00:44:21.679
<v Speaker 2>an hour, maybe an hour and a half. There's that

815
00:44:21.760 --> 00:44:25.360
<v Speaker 2>tree that fell last winter, about forty feet tall, and

816
00:44:25.400 --> 00:44:28.159
<v Speaker 2>there's a bunch of other things that you may have

817
00:44:28.239 --> 00:44:32.480
<v Speaker 2>thrown there as well, and you decide spontaneously, now is

818
00:44:32.519 --> 00:44:35.840
<v Speaker 2>when you're going to clean that up. So you get chainsaws,

819
00:44:36.039 --> 00:44:38.480
<v Speaker 2>you start taking it all apart, You drag it across

820
00:44:38.519 --> 00:44:43.159
<v Speaker 2>the yard and do all this heavy physical work, and

821
00:44:43.280 --> 00:44:46.280
<v Speaker 2>you get done. You're thinking, ah, all right, I'm really

822
00:44:46.360 --> 00:44:49.280
<v Speaker 2>hot and sweaty now because it's really humid, even though

823
00:44:49.320 --> 00:44:52.960
<v Speaker 2>it's not feeling super hot, and you go inside and

824
00:44:53.000 --> 00:44:57.239
<v Speaker 2>you're like, okay, great, I got fifteen minutes before I

825
00:44:57.280 --> 00:45:00.000
<v Speaker 2>have to do this podcast recording. I'm gonna grab something

826
00:45:00.119 --> 00:45:03.920
<v Speaker 2>eat because I really haven't eaten. And then you say, uh,

827
00:45:04.079 --> 00:45:06.840
<v Speaker 2>I don't know. Maybe uh. Being diabetic, you think, well,

828
00:45:06.840 --> 00:45:10.159
<v Speaker 2>I should probably check my blood sugar too, and then

829
00:45:10.199 --> 00:45:12.440
<v Speaker 2>you find out that your your blood sugar is very low,

830
00:45:13.119 --> 00:45:17.039
<v Speaker 2>very low, and you didn't notice because you're so busy

831
00:45:17.519 --> 00:45:20.960
<v Speaker 2>doing all this manual labor, and then you have to

832
00:45:21.000 --> 00:45:25.320
<v Speaker 2>postpone said podcast temporarily to make sure you don't die.

833
00:45:26.159 --> 00:45:29.800
<v Speaker 2>So my recommendation is to not do that in the future.

834
00:45:30.920 --> 00:45:35.400
<v Speaker 2>It's a bad idea. And then you have to eat

835
00:45:35.400 --> 00:45:38.719
<v Speaker 2>a bunch of sugar, which sounds great until you have

836
00:45:38.840 --> 00:45:40.920
<v Speaker 2>to do it and it kind of sucks, and so

837
00:45:40.960 --> 00:45:43.000
<v Speaker 2>you don't want to do that. So I don't recommend that.

838
00:45:44.000 --> 00:45:47.880
<v Speaker 2>I basically recommend not doing those things. Like some of

839
00:45:47.880 --> 00:45:53.320
<v Speaker 2>those things are fine, but not altogether. That's that's my recommendator.

840
00:45:53.320 --> 00:45:57.119
<v Speaker 2>I'll give you a bonus recommendation. I'm gonna go with

841
00:45:57.159 --> 00:46:01.280
<v Speaker 2>the keystone Hagstone Timothy Renner's latest book, Ferries and Other

842
00:46:01.360 --> 00:46:08.800
<v Speaker 2>Mysterious Entities of Pennsylvania. Absolutely fantastic book, and he will

843
00:46:08.800 --> 00:46:11.360
<v Speaker 2>be on to talk about it in a week or two.

844
00:46:11.599 --> 00:46:15.360
<v Speaker 2>I don't remember exactly where it is. We already recorded it,

845
00:46:16.199 --> 00:46:21.960
<v Speaker 2>and I believe it might be in three weeks. I

846
00:46:22.000 --> 00:46:25.400
<v Speaker 2>guess it's in three weeks. Timothy Renner will be joining

847
00:46:25.480 --> 00:46:31.000
<v Speaker 2>us and man, that first recommendation, I guess that was

848
00:46:31.039 --> 00:46:34.920
<v Speaker 2>oddly specific, wasn't it. Huh, whonder where that came from?

849
00:46:35.519 --> 00:46:38.719
<v Speaker 2>All right, back to the show. You're listening to Where

850
00:46:38.840 --> 00:46:42.159
<v Speaker 2>the Road Go and I'm here with AJ from Parasortium?

851
00:46:42.360 --> 00:46:43.119
<v Speaker 2>Is AJ right?

852
00:46:43.199 --> 00:46:43.400
<v Speaker 6>Yes?

853
00:46:43.440 --> 00:46:47.920
<v Speaker 2>All right? Like AJ style. That's my pnemonic, yep, and

854
00:46:48.320 --> 00:46:51.039
<v Speaker 2>Parasortium for people who are interested, can be found where.

855
00:46:51.400 --> 00:46:56.719
<v Speaker 6>We're on YouTube first, we have a website ww dot

856
00:46:57.039 --> 00:47:04.639
<v Speaker 6>parasortium dot com. We have my Brains YouTube YouTube substack.

857
00:47:05.400 --> 00:47:12.320
<v Speaker 6>We're on Apple, Spotify, eight other platforms including iHeartRadio.

858
00:47:11.679 --> 00:47:13.920
<v Speaker 2>Nice okay? And how often do you put out episodes?

859
00:47:13.960 --> 00:47:17.800
<v Speaker 6>As often as we can? It's kind of sporadic right now.

860
00:47:18.480 --> 00:47:23.159
<v Speaker 6>The first four seasons we did runs of ten to

861
00:47:23.679 --> 00:47:28.760
<v Speaker 6>fifteen episodes. We're sitting at from the eighty eighty seven

862
00:47:29.039 --> 00:47:33.800
<v Speaker 6>episodes Mark and we run the gam But we can

863
00:47:33.880 --> 00:47:41.920
<v Speaker 6>do magic one day, paranormal the next, history, folklore. We're

864
00:47:42.000 --> 00:47:43.239
<v Speaker 6>kind of all over the place.

865
00:47:43.360 --> 00:47:45.000
<v Speaker 2>I think that's the best way to go with this

866
00:47:45.079 --> 00:47:47.679
<v Speaker 2>stuff because if you micro focus in on it. I

867
00:47:47.679 --> 00:47:50.159
<v Speaker 2>mean not that that's not useful to some things, but

868
00:47:50.199 --> 00:47:52.920
<v Speaker 2>I think understanding the way these things relate to one

869
00:47:52.960 --> 00:47:54.159
<v Speaker 2>another is so important.

870
00:47:54.199 --> 00:48:00.719
<v Speaker 6>It's true. Learning history, in particularly in ghost hunting, vitally

871
00:48:00.760 --> 00:48:05.239
<v Speaker 6>important because if you go into a space and the

872
00:48:05.360 --> 00:48:08.559
<v Speaker 6>lore of the place is that a witch is there,

873
00:48:08.719 --> 00:48:11.960
<v Speaker 6>and you go into the history books and archives and

874
00:48:12.000 --> 00:48:15.719
<v Speaker 6>they have no instance of that, but there's people that

875
00:48:15.800 --> 00:48:19.440
<v Speaker 6>live there. When we go into to look for the ghost,

876
00:48:19.519 --> 00:48:22.280
<v Speaker 6>We're not going to go in there looking for the witch, right,

877
00:48:22.360 --> 00:48:24.400
<v Speaker 6>We're going to go in there looking for the people

878
00:48:24.559 --> 00:48:27.719
<v Speaker 6>that were actually there. And a lot of ghost hunters

879
00:48:27.840 --> 00:48:31.599
<v Speaker 6>nowadays follow just the lore of the surface low and

880
00:48:31.880 --> 00:48:34.440
<v Speaker 6>they go in and they yell at the ghosts and

881
00:48:34.519 --> 00:48:37.119
<v Speaker 6>want them to perform, and of course they're going to

882
00:48:37.199 --> 00:48:40.599
<v Speaker 6>get what they ask for sure, they're going to get

883
00:48:40.639 --> 00:48:43.119
<v Speaker 6>the bligerent person yelling at them to get out.

884
00:48:43.199 --> 00:48:45.639
<v Speaker 2>Well, they're also putting negative energy into the air, so

885
00:48:45.639 --> 00:48:48.079
<v Speaker 2>that's what it's going to get going to use. Is

886
00:48:48.079 --> 00:48:49.000
<v Speaker 2>that negative energy?

887
00:48:49.119 --> 00:48:54.239
<v Speaker 6>Yeah, So with all of the ghosts and that we've experienced,

888
00:48:54.280 --> 00:48:57.320
<v Speaker 6>I've had ghosts here. I didn't think about this earlier.

889
00:48:57.840 --> 00:49:00.440
<v Speaker 6>I was sitting at the bus stop again. It was

890
00:49:00.719 --> 00:49:03.480
<v Speaker 6>it was around it was around like five five in

891
00:49:03.519 --> 00:49:07.840
<v Speaker 6>the morning, and it was in uh in wintertime. I

892
00:49:07.840 --> 00:49:11.239
<v Speaker 6>think it was in late January, and I was just

893
00:49:11.320 --> 00:49:14.440
<v Speaker 6>sitting there, mind my own business, looking around, and I

894
00:49:14.480 --> 00:49:17.480
<v Speaker 6>heard a model T horn and I looked around, and

895
00:49:17.519 --> 00:49:19.519
<v Speaker 6>then I heard it again as it passed me, but

896
00:49:19.559 --> 00:49:22.960
<v Speaker 6>there was nothing there. So I saw a ghost cart

897
00:49:23.000 --> 00:49:25.920
<v Speaker 6>and then pastward. A year later, I'm sitting in the

898
00:49:25.920 --> 00:49:29.760
<v Speaker 6>same spot and I see a young woman like college

899
00:49:29.760 --> 00:49:36.280
<v Speaker 6>shears in converse jeans and UVic sweater and she's walking

900
00:49:36.360 --> 00:49:40.159
<v Speaker 6>by and and I kind of followed her for a

901
00:49:40.159 --> 00:49:43.480
<v Speaker 6>few seconds, and then I noticed she faded away, and

902
00:49:43.920 --> 00:49:48.679
<v Speaker 6>so I kind of, Okay, that's weird. I see them

903
00:49:48.719 --> 00:49:52.119
<v Speaker 6>all the time. It's fine. But the same one. I

904
00:49:52.239 --> 00:49:54.679
<v Speaker 6>was at work again. This is like six o'clock in

905
00:49:54.719 --> 00:49:59.840
<v Speaker 6>the morning. I was I was setting up everything doing receiving.

906
00:50:00.559 --> 00:50:03.239
<v Speaker 6>So I was getting the back room set up so

907
00:50:03.280 --> 00:50:05.360
<v Speaker 6>that I could get milk in and I heard a

908
00:50:05.400 --> 00:50:08.320
<v Speaker 6>woman's scream like she was streaming bloody murder, like she

909
00:50:08.440 --> 00:50:10.320
<v Speaker 6>was going to die, and so I ran out to

910
00:50:10.360 --> 00:50:13.239
<v Speaker 6>see what was going on. Nothing was there. This happened

911
00:50:13.280 --> 00:50:15.719
<v Speaker 6>like three times and put me behind. I was getting

912
00:50:15.760 --> 00:50:18.000
<v Speaker 6>angry with it, and then I got back in and

913
00:50:18.039 --> 00:50:20.559
<v Speaker 6>I was loading stock onto a deck to get it

914
00:50:20.599 --> 00:50:23.360
<v Speaker 6>out of the way, and this image of a woman,

915
00:50:23.480 --> 00:50:25.920
<v Speaker 6>it was kind of like a shadowed image of a woman.

916
00:50:26.039 --> 00:50:29.119
<v Speaker 6>I could just see the fabric of the jeans and

917
00:50:30.519 --> 00:50:34.360
<v Speaker 6>sweater that she was wearing previously, but she had no face.

918
00:50:34.440 --> 00:50:36.320
<v Speaker 6>And I said, what do you want? What can I

919
00:50:36.360 --> 00:50:39.519
<v Speaker 6>do for you? And when I said that, she faded away.

920
00:50:39.840 --> 00:50:44.519
<v Speaker 6>Now a week later, I was looking up weird happenings

921
00:50:44.599 --> 00:50:46.840
<v Speaker 6>in the area so that I could get stuff for

922
00:50:48.119 --> 00:50:51.800
<v Speaker 6>a podcast, and I found a girl that looked very

923
00:50:51.880 --> 00:50:55.320
<v Speaker 6>much like her, but it wasn't her, like she was

924
00:50:55.320 --> 00:50:58.639
<v Speaker 6>from an earlier time, like in the seventies and this

925
00:50:58.800 --> 00:51:02.239
<v Speaker 6>was more like eighties, but it looked like her. But

926
00:51:02.400 --> 00:51:04.400
<v Speaker 6>I was kind of like, no, that's not her, But

927
00:51:04.559 --> 00:51:07.320
<v Speaker 6>it's weird that she would be wearing the same sort

928
00:51:07.360 --> 00:51:12.960
<v Speaker 6>of clothes. But it's just synchronicities like that happen around

929
00:51:13.280 --> 00:51:16.719
<v Speaker 6>outs of having weirdness, and it's come to the point

930
00:51:16.760 --> 00:51:20.320
<v Speaker 6>that we call it a phenomena ball. We'll have synchronicities

931
00:51:20.400 --> 00:51:24.039
<v Speaker 6>build up and then a rash of experiences and then

932
00:51:24.079 --> 00:51:25.920
<v Speaker 6>it'll die off, and then it'll do it again.

933
00:51:26.000 --> 00:51:28.039
<v Speaker 2>And what do you make of it? Like, how do

934
00:51:28.079 --> 00:51:29.519
<v Speaker 2>you take synchronous I take.

935
00:51:29.360 --> 00:51:33.159
<v Speaker 6>Them as they come. Okay, they basically sometimes they have

936
00:51:33.280 --> 00:51:36.199
<v Speaker 6>a meaning to something that I have to do to

937
00:51:36.559 --> 00:51:39.719
<v Speaker 6>get further in what I'm doing, or it could just

938
00:51:39.840 --> 00:51:43.920
<v Speaker 6>be part of an ongoing initiatory experience that we've been having.

939
00:51:44.000 --> 00:51:47.719
<v Speaker 6>Because I stopped doing magic when I was fifteen, and

940
00:51:47.760 --> 00:51:52.119
<v Speaker 6>then my wife opened the altar and we had things banging.

941
00:51:52.360 --> 00:51:55.679
<v Speaker 6>Her wedding ring disappeared for two years, and then she

942
00:51:55.920 --> 00:51:59.800
<v Speaker 6>was cleaning the altar and she heard something fall on

943
00:51:59.840 --> 00:52:04.280
<v Speaker 6>the altar and it was a ring an appart, and

944
00:52:04.599 --> 00:52:08.119
<v Speaker 6>it's just little things like that started happening more after

945
00:52:08.159 --> 00:52:11.079
<v Speaker 6>she opened the altar, and then we both got back

946
00:52:11.119 --> 00:52:16.400
<v Speaker 6>into magic together and I ended up channeling painting. And

947
00:52:16.679 --> 00:52:19.599
<v Speaker 6>at that point I was checking my blood pressure regularly,

948
00:52:19.679 --> 00:52:22.159
<v Speaker 6>and when I was in the middle of it, I

949
00:52:22.280 --> 00:52:25.920
<v Speaker 6>tested my blood pressure and it was when seventy over

950
00:52:26.119 --> 00:52:29.400
<v Speaker 6>one oh three that's super high, and my heart was pounding,

951
00:52:29.480 --> 00:52:32.559
<v Speaker 6>and then I got to a point where I was

952
00:52:32.639 --> 00:52:36.360
<v Speaker 6>getting very physically affected by it, and I said, what

953
00:52:36.440 --> 00:52:38.920
<v Speaker 6>do you need from me? I need you to give

954
00:52:38.960 --> 00:52:41.119
<v Speaker 6>it to me in a way that isn't going to

955
00:52:41.199 --> 00:52:44.000
<v Speaker 6>hurt me. And then things started calming down. And then

956
00:52:44.079 --> 00:52:48.599
<v Speaker 6>over the next few weeks, I created a spiral painting

957
00:52:48.840 --> 00:52:53.199
<v Speaker 6>that is that is built on the Golden ratio and

958
00:52:53.719 --> 00:52:58.519
<v Speaker 6>it is basically the connection of all things and it

959
00:52:58.760 --> 00:53:02.519
<v Speaker 6>kind of shows in or outer universe as one so

960
00:53:02.840 --> 00:53:04.880
<v Speaker 6>and I still don't fully understand it.

961
00:53:04.960 --> 00:53:06.519
<v Speaker 2>You haven't posted anywhere.

962
00:53:06.840 --> 00:53:11.679
<v Speaker 6>It's actually on Spotify. It's our our logo on it

963
00:53:11.760 --> 00:53:15.559
<v Speaker 6>on there, but I can send you an image for

964
00:53:16.039 --> 00:53:21.559
<v Speaker 6>you to put up. It's basically there's seven notes. Each

965
00:53:21.599 --> 00:53:26.400
<v Speaker 6>one has like an element that's represented of it, and

966
00:53:26.480 --> 00:53:30.800
<v Speaker 6>in the center is five pointed star the lotus in

967
00:53:30.840 --> 00:53:35.199
<v Speaker 6>the center and again connections to spirit and the elements.

968
00:53:36.159 --> 00:53:40.000
<v Speaker 6>And I've done other paintings since then that are I'll

969
00:53:40.039 --> 00:53:43.599
<v Speaker 6>get the urge to paint something. But now this new

970
00:53:43.679 --> 00:53:47.639
<v Speaker 6>project that I'm working on, I've had synchronousity after synchronosity,

971
00:53:47.840 --> 00:53:51.000
<v Speaker 6>and people that I've talked to about it have synchronous

972
00:53:51.079 --> 00:53:55.000
<v Speaker 6>these around it. It's an animation based on High Strange

973
00:53:55.159 --> 00:54:03.320
<v Speaker 6>and so it's it's just Morgan the fourteen bookshelfs on Instagram.

974
00:54:03.480 --> 00:54:06.559
<v Speaker 6>He had synchronosity about it when I talked to him

975
00:54:06.599 --> 00:54:08.559
<v Speaker 6>about it and asked him to help me out because

976
00:54:08.559 --> 00:54:12.320
<v Speaker 6>he does all things high Strangeness, so so we we

977
00:54:12.320 --> 00:54:16.360
<v Speaker 6>were talking about that. He works with Steve burt On

978
00:54:16.800 --> 00:54:22.199
<v Speaker 6>on his his show High Strange, High Strangeness, and like

979
00:54:22.679 --> 00:54:26.760
<v Speaker 6>those synchronosities. And my wife has had synchronousitys since I

980
00:54:26.840 --> 00:54:29.880
<v Speaker 6>started working on this project, So I think something wants

981
00:54:29.920 --> 00:54:30.559
<v Speaker 6>it to be done.

982
00:54:30.679 --> 00:54:31.840
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, that's what it sounds like.

983
00:54:32.519 --> 00:54:36.239
<v Speaker 6>But I'm basing it on a person who came into

984
00:54:36.280 --> 00:54:40.159
<v Speaker 6>my life through his girlfriend. This person is my doppelganger,

985
00:54:40.519 --> 00:54:43.599
<v Speaker 6>his girlfriend. I was in high school. His girlfriend came

986
00:54:43.840 --> 00:54:46.880
<v Speaker 6>running up to me because he lived in Toronto and

987
00:54:46.920 --> 00:54:49.480
<v Speaker 6>I lived in Nova Scotia at that point, so she

988
00:54:49.559 --> 00:54:52.559
<v Speaker 6>was like, what are you doing here? And and she

989
00:54:52.559 --> 00:54:55.679
<v Speaker 6>she helped me and went to kiss me. I was like, ooh,

990
00:54:56.920 --> 00:55:01.599
<v Speaker 6>I don't know you. So that that weird experience. I've

991
00:55:01.679 --> 00:55:06.360
<v Speaker 6>turned that into this character named Alex. His name was Alex.

992
00:55:06.480 --> 00:55:08.719
<v Speaker 2>So what you're working on is just fiction, but it's

993
00:55:08.760 --> 00:55:09.599
<v Speaker 2>based on real thing.

994
00:55:09.679 --> 00:55:13.559
<v Speaker 6>It's based on real things, and I'm going to put

995
00:55:13.639 --> 00:55:18.480
<v Speaker 6>in as many real high strangeness air normal type things

996
00:55:18.519 --> 00:55:21.079
<v Speaker 6>as I can, and at the end of each show,

997
00:55:21.239 --> 00:55:24.559
<v Speaker 6>I'll have a list of resources for people to find

998
00:55:24.679 --> 00:55:25.159
<v Speaker 6>these things.

999
00:55:25.280 --> 00:55:25.559
<v Speaker 2>Nice.

1000
00:55:25.960 --> 00:55:28.960
<v Speaker 6>But the first thing is I have to do a

1001
00:55:30.079 --> 00:55:32.360
<v Speaker 6>full feature, and that's to get the money to be

1002
00:55:32.400 --> 00:55:35.920
<v Speaker 6>able to produce this on an ongoing basis, right, right,

1003
00:55:36.079 --> 00:55:39.440
<v Speaker 6>So the first I've come up with, because my usual

1004
00:55:39.519 --> 00:55:43.639
<v Speaker 6>thing is one to eleven, the initiatory thing. I'm going

1005
00:55:43.719 --> 00:55:47.960
<v Speaker 6>to make it for the audience an initiatory experience, so

1006
00:55:48.239 --> 00:55:51.639
<v Speaker 6>they will be initiated into high strangeness. Along with the

1007
00:55:51.760 --> 00:55:55.679
<v Speaker 6>character and how they explore it, I will give credible

1008
00:55:56.000 --> 00:55:57.880
<v Speaker 6>resources for them to explore.

1009
00:55:58.000 --> 00:55:59.519
<v Speaker 2>Nice. Yeah, that's very cool.

1010
00:56:00.159 --> 00:56:01.800
<v Speaker 6>Way of giving back to the community.

1011
00:56:02.480 --> 00:56:04.880
<v Speaker 2>Now, you said you also had a big footing count.

1012
00:56:04.519 --> 00:56:11.840
<v Speaker 6>Several Actually it started out with the miniature Bigfoot we

1013
00:56:11.840 --> 00:56:14.880
<v Speaker 6>were at here in Victoria. We have a place called

1014
00:56:15.000 --> 00:56:18.079
<v Speaker 6>Christmas Hill and it's basically a steep angled hill that

1015
00:56:18.159 --> 00:56:20.440
<v Speaker 6>you go up and it's basically the side of a mountain.

1016
00:56:20.480 --> 00:56:23.920
<v Speaker 6>You basically climate and you get to a point there's

1017
00:56:24.159 --> 00:56:28.679
<v Speaker 6>this little green, green area amongst the bedrock that they

1018
00:56:28.719 --> 00:56:31.679
<v Speaker 6>call the faery circle, and we were doing a tarot

1019
00:56:31.760 --> 00:56:36.280
<v Speaker 6>reading with our friends under a body tree and it's

1020
00:56:36.000 --> 00:56:39.039
<v Speaker 6>the type of tree that as it grows, the bark

1021
00:56:39.119 --> 00:56:42.159
<v Speaker 6>will peel off and then and then a new bark

1022
00:56:42.199 --> 00:56:45.159
<v Speaker 6>wool will form under it. So we were sitting by

1023
00:56:45.159 --> 00:56:48.400
<v Speaker 6>that tree and I noticed something peeking out at me

1024
00:56:48.679 --> 00:56:52.960
<v Speaker 6>and it was similar to our Domovic in height, but

1025
00:56:53.199 --> 00:56:57.360
<v Speaker 6>this one it was golden brown fur and it had

1026
00:56:57.559 --> 00:57:01.159
<v Speaker 6>like a blurry humanoid face. And my friend next meet

1027
00:57:01.280 --> 00:57:03.480
<v Speaker 6>saw it as well, but my wife with her back

1028
00:57:03.599 --> 00:57:05.519
<v Speaker 6>was to it, so she didn't really see it. She

1029
00:57:05.639 --> 00:57:08.320
<v Speaker 6>felt something was there, but didn't see anything. So we

1030
00:57:08.400 --> 00:57:12.639
<v Speaker 6>had that experience, and then we were doing our fall

1031
00:57:12.840 --> 00:57:16.400
<v Speaker 6>ritual on the top of the hill and I was

1032
00:57:16.440 --> 00:57:19.280
<v Speaker 6>looking from the peak down into that same area that

1033
00:57:19.679 --> 00:57:23.679
<v Speaker 6>we had the first to encounter, and it was about

1034
00:57:23.800 --> 00:57:28.079
<v Speaker 6>nine feet tall, again golden brown her. It was about

1035
00:57:28.159 --> 00:57:31.119
<v Speaker 6>nine feet tall, and it walked along that area and

1036
00:57:31.199 --> 00:57:34.079
<v Speaker 6>then down into the gully. But as it passed by

1037
00:57:34.400 --> 00:57:38.039
<v Speaker 6>the tree that the Bodi tree and past past a

1038
00:57:38.079 --> 00:57:41.480
<v Speaker 6>smaller tree that was on my side walking my view,

1039
00:57:41.559 --> 00:57:43.960
<v Speaker 6>it disappeared. It was like it it walked up to

1040
00:57:44.079 --> 00:57:47.840
<v Speaker 6>it and then disappeared. There was no continuance, and then

1041
00:57:48.079 --> 00:57:51.000
<v Speaker 6>some kids a few minutes later walked past, and I

1042
00:57:51.039 --> 00:57:53.800
<v Speaker 6>could see them going beyond the tree, so it wasn't

1043
00:57:53.840 --> 00:57:56.920
<v Speaker 6>like it went down into a gully. It just disappeared.

1044
00:57:56.960 --> 00:57:58.800
<v Speaker 6>And it kind of freaked me up because I was

1045
00:57:58.800 --> 00:58:01.280
<v Speaker 6>like cutting that big and those kids are there. I

1046
00:58:01.440 --> 00:58:03.159
<v Speaker 6>was freaked out. I didn't know where it was, and

1047
00:58:03.199 --> 00:58:06.519
<v Speaker 6>so I started yelling at them. My wife is, don't

1048
00:58:06.519 --> 00:58:09.920
<v Speaker 6>do that, You're gonna wear them out. But full time

1049
00:58:10.000 --> 00:58:13.199
<v Speaker 6>that same year, we're at our house and the apartment

1050
00:58:13.239 --> 00:58:16.880
<v Speaker 6>building that we live in. Our garbage cans are down

1051
00:58:17.000 --> 00:58:20.480
<v Speaker 6>the back steps and the light will turn off if

1052
00:58:20.519 --> 00:58:24.159
<v Speaker 6>someone's there. So I came out. The light was on,

1053
00:58:25.119 --> 00:58:27.599
<v Speaker 6>and I wasn't really paying attention until I get to

1054
00:58:27.599 --> 00:58:30.039
<v Speaker 6>the bottom and the steps, and then I heard something

1055
00:58:30.079 --> 00:58:32.000
<v Speaker 6>growl at me, and I looked up and there was

1056
00:58:32.039 --> 00:58:35.440
<v Speaker 6>this nine foot tall thing with blowing red eyes looking

1057
00:58:35.480 --> 00:58:40.719
<v Speaker 6>at me. And I have brain damage from when I

1058
00:58:40.760 --> 00:58:43.480
<v Speaker 6>was a kid, as I said, which I was gone

1059
00:58:43.880 --> 00:58:47.760
<v Speaker 6>when I was fourteen, So things that should scare me don't.

1060
00:58:47.960 --> 00:58:51.559
<v Speaker 6>I get angry and I will confront it. And so

1061
00:58:51.800 --> 00:58:53.960
<v Speaker 6>it growled at me and took a step towards me,

1062
00:58:54.239 --> 00:58:57.800
<v Speaker 6>trying of being aggressive, I think mostly to get rid

1063
00:58:57.880 --> 00:59:01.480
<v Speaker 6>of me. It was a messing around in the compost.

1064
00:59:01.599 --> 00:59:02.639
<v Speaker 2>Oh okay, So.

1065
00:59:02.679 --> 00:59:04.880
<v Speaker 6>I get angry and he said, don't you drowl at me?

1066
00:59:04.960 --> 00:59:07.920
<v Speaker 6>And I walked towards it, and it kind of it

1067
00:59:07.960 --> 00:59:11.480
<v Speaker 6>was like, well, it was. It was full on Jeff

1068
00:59:11.639 --> 00:59:15.679
<v Speaker 6>moment where the little fitfied dog is yapping at the

1069
00:59:15.679 --> 00:59:18.679
<v Speaker 6>big dog, the big dog hours away from him. He

1070
00:59:18.800 --> 00:59:20.440
<v Speaker 6>did that and he ran off.

1071
00:59:20.800 --> 00:59:22.559
<v Speaker 2>Wow. It doesn't surprise me though.

1072
00:59:22.559 --> 00:59:25.840
<v Speaker 6>Honestly, Well, when you come at someone with confidence, even

1073
00:59:25.840 --> 00:59:28.800
<v Speaker 6>if they're being aggressive, and you come at them confidently,

1074
00:59:28.880 --> 00:59:31.360
<v Speaker 6>they're gonna be like, oh true, I mentioned for the

1075
00:59:31.440 --> 00:59:31.920
<v Speaker 6>wrong girl.

1076

01:00:09.400 --> 01:00:12.920
<v Speaker 4>A cast powers the world's top podcast including.

1089
01:00:12.679 --> 01:00:16.199
<v Speaker 1>Off Menu, the Adam Buxton Podcast, and the show you're

1090
01:00:16.280 --> 01:00:17.760
<v Speaker 1>listening to right now.

1091
01:00:23.360 --> 01:00:25.480
<v Speaker 2>But even so, I don't think this stuff is trying

1092
01:00:25.480 --> 01:00:26.840
<v Speaker 2>to hurt us necessarily.

1093
01:00:27.079 --> 01:00:30.039
<v Speaker 6>No. I think it was more defending its food.

1094
01:00:30.159 --> 01:00:31.039
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, and it just.

1095
01:00:31.800 --> 01:00:34.079
<v Speaker 6>Didn't really want anything to do with me, just want

1096
01:00:34.159 --> 01:00:34.800
<v Speaker 6>me to leave.

1097
01:00:35.159 --> 01:00:38.239
<v Speaker 2>Would you consider how do you view these things? You

1098
01:00:38.280 --> 01:00:40.239
<v Speaker 2>think they're flesh and blood or do you think there's

1099
01:00:40.239 --> 01:00:41.960
<v Speaker 2>some kind of paranormal manifestation.

1100
01:00:42.039 --> 01:00:44.679
<v Speaker 6>I think they're faye, Okay, They're like a fake creature,

1101
01:00:45.320 --> 01:00:48.920
<v Speaker 6>something that both exists and doesn't right at the same time.

1102
01:00:48.960 --> 01:00:53.519
<v Speaker 6>It's other yeah, yeah. But the thing is I've had

1103
01:00:53.559 --> 01:00:56.519
<v Speaker 6>people have me on their shows and tried to say, oh,

1104
01:00:56.559 --> 01:01:00.199
<v Speaker 6>it's a demon right, or or it's it's a rush

1105
01:01:00.239 --> 01:01:02.840
<v Speaker 6>and blood creature that's gonna attack and hurt you. But

1106
01:01:02.920 --> 01:01:06.039
<v Speaker 6>the thing is the history of these things, if you

1107
01:01:06.119 --> 01:01:09.880
<v Speaker 6>trace it back. Indigenous belief in Bigfoot is that they

1108
01:01:09.880 --> 01:01:14.119
<v Speaker 6>were a shaman who chose to stay in nature. So

1109
01:01:14.559 --> 01:01:18.719
<v Speaker 6>and like susquatch. The impetus of that word is a

1110
01:01:18.760 --> 01:01:22.559
<v Speaker 6>white man took the word, mispronounced it, and misused it,

1111
01:01:22.639 --> 01:01:24.039
<v Speaker 6>and now it's everywhere.

1112
01:01:24.079 --> 01:01:27.599
<v Speaker 2>I didn't know it's good. I didn't know that it's it's.

1113
01:01:27.320 --> 01:01:29.599
<v Speaker 6>In it if you if you look at there's a

1114
01:01:29.599 --> 01:01:32.440
<v Speaker 6>few books I'll get there. Sarah does all all of

1115
01:01:32.519 --> 01:01:35.679
<v Speaker 6>the research and that for us, so she she'll be

1116
01:01:35.719 --> 01:01:38.119
<v Speaker 6>able to give you the book that that you found

1117
01:01:38.199 --> 01:01:44.000
<v Speaker 6>it in. But she's also studying indigenous culture and indigenous

1118
01:01:45.519 --> 01:01:50.760
<v Speaker 6>more in the area. And the word sasquatch is subsquich

1119
01:01:51.079 --> 01:01:54.639
<v Speaker 6>or subsquitch, and it comes from the Stolo language, which

1120
01:01:54.840 --> 01:02:00.480
<v Speaker 6>is the people of the Fraser Valley area and Vancouver Island.

1121
01:02:00.760 --> 01:02:01.920
<v Speaker 2>What does it actually mean.

1122
01:02:02.599 --> 01:02:07.920
<v Speaker 6>It's I don't remember exactly. I think it's something to

1123
01:02:08.000 --> 01:02:13.440
<v Speaker 6>do with the ceremony that people did to become shaman

1124
01:02:13.960 --> 01:02:15.400
<v Speaker 6>or become medicine people.

1125
01:02:15.440 --> 01:02:17.719
<v Speaker 2>Sorry, it really has nothing to do with with an

1126
01:02:18.159 --> 01:02:18.920
<v Speaker 2>like creature at.

1127
01:02:18.800 --> 01:02:21.519
<v Speaker 6>All, nothing at all. It's more of the wild man.

1128
01:02:22.079 --> 01:02:26.320
<v Speaker 6>It's because the original sasquatch or the original bigfoot, is

1129
01:02:26.400 --> 01:02:29.480
<v Speaker 6>the wild man, and the wild man had language and

1130
01:02:29.559 --> 01:02:34.320
<v Speaker 6>spoke and over time, our idea of it because people

1131
01:02:34.639 --> 01:02:39.239
<v Speaker 6>over time even with with aliens, they went from curious

1132
01:02:39.360 --> 01:02:44.320
<v Speaker 6>human looking people to black eyed praise.

1133
01:02:44.800 --> 01:02:47.840
<v Speaker 2>Well, there's officially five types to them, yeah, or something like.

1134
01:02:47.760 --> 01:02:52.280
<v Speaker 6>That, something like that. But the same with the bigfoot.

1135
01:02:52.320 --> 01:02:55.920
<v Speaker 6>There's many different versions of it. There's also dog man,

1136
01:02:55.960 --> 01:02:59.280
<v Speaker 6>which is another weirdness, and and they kind of fight

1137
01:02:59.400 --> 01:03:03.599
<v Speaker 6>each other as well, because in stories from the islands

1138
01:03:03.639 --> 01:03:10.440
<v Speaker 6>around here, dog man has fought sasquatch. Yes, it's like

1139
01:03:10.519 --> 01:03:14.239
<v Speaker 6>a rivalry. The dog man will will attack them, they'll

1140
01:03:14.280 --> 01:03:18.199
<v Speaker 6>attack the dog men. The dog men will attack coyotes

1141
01:03:18.280 --> 01:03:23.000
<v Speaker 6>and wolves in the area are our wolves are protected

1142
01:03:23.079 --> 01:03:26.639
<v Speaker 6>sea species that are the size of the coyote, but

1143
01:03:26.840 --> 01:03:32.800
<v Speaker 6>they subsist on seafood and sea life and are very

1144
01:03:33.159 --> 01:03:36.480
<v Speaker 6>creek curious and docile, and so the dog men will

1145
01:03:36.519 --> 01:03:41.840
<v Speaker 6>attack them and kill them. And there's been instances on Fraser.

1146
01:03:42.400 --> 01:03:45.599
<v Speaker 6>It's not Fraser the course, not of course. He the

1147
01:03:45.679 --> 01:03:49.280
<v Speaker 6>course is where we have our own l Ron Hubbert.

1148
01:03:50.199 --> 01:03:53.000
<v Speaker 6>I want to be a brother twelve. He was a

1149
01:03:53.280 --> 01:03:57.079
<v Speaker 6>magician back in the early nineteen hundreds. I'll talk about

1150
01:03:57.119 --> 01:03:57.880
<v Speaker 6>that another time.

1151
01:03:58.079 --> 01:04:01.039
<v Speaker 2>Okay, it was just going to ask you something, well,

1152
01:04:01.119 --> 01:04:03.760
<v Speaker 2>oh no, I was gonna say, like, as you're describing this.

1153
01:04:03.920 --> 01:04:06.199
<v Speaker 2>I can't help but feel like this is theater from

1154
01:04:06.239 --> 01:04:08.480
<v Speaker 2>the other like it's a performance that it's putting on

1155
01:04:08.599 --> 01:04:10.840
<v Speaker 2>to make us feel to think a certain way. Yeah.

1156
01:04:10.960 --> 01:04:14.039
<v Speaker 6>Yeah, it could could just be we've put out this

1157
01:04:14.199 --> 01:04:17.360
<v Speaker 6>type of idea that monsters have to be scary, right,

1158
01:04:17.519 --> 01:04:21.960
<v Speaker 6>and so when we experienced something that our mind doesn't

1159
01:04:22.039 --> 01:04:27.440
<v Speaker 6>have an image or or an explanation for, it'll automatically,

1160
01:04:27.880 --> 01:04:31.480
<v Speaker 6>because our modern day ideology is one of your fight,

1161
01:04:31.599 --> 01:04:35.000
<v Speaker 6>fight or flight, it'll make it a monster. It's Thetis

1162
01:04:35.079 --> 01:04:38.239
<v Speaker 6>Lake up the way from us. Some kids were playing

1163
01:04:38.320 --> 01:04:43.000
<v Speaker 6>around at the at the lake and this lizard person

1164
01:04:43.239 --> 01:04:45.440
<v Speaker 6>came out of the lake and chase them and they

1165
01:04:45.559 --> 01:04:48.639
<v Speaker 6>ran away. But the locals all say, oh, it's a hoax.

1166
01:04:49.239 --> 01:04:52.360
<v Speaker 6>It was just, uh, these kids saw a big lizard.

1167
01:04:52.840 --> 01:04:55.920
<v Speaker 6>Someone had an iguana and they let it loose and

1168
01:04:56.079 --> 01:04:59.360
<v Speaker 6>blah blah blah, I guanta do swim, but they drew

1169
01:05:00.119 --> 01:05:06.079
<v Speaker 6>humanoid face. And this is after the monster of the Black.

1170
01:05:05.920 --> 01:05:09.000
<v Speaker 2>Lagoon and all of that, right, right, Yeah, So it

1171
01:05:09.119 --> 01:05:12.119
<v Speaker 2>now has something to base its existence its appearance off

1172
01:05:12.119 --> 01:05:15.079
<v Speaker 2>of exactly, or our brain has something to fill in

1173
01:05:15.239 --> 01:05:17.480
<v Speaker 2>the gap of not understanding what it's looking at.

1174
01:05:17.679 --> 01:05:20.960
<v Speaker 6>Exactly. And it's like Indigenous people when they first saw

1175
01:05:21.239 --> 01:05:25.519
<v Speaker 6>all ships, they thought they were canoes. They couldn't fathom,

1176
01:05:25.639 --> 01:05:28.199
<v Speaker 6>they didn't understand what it was, right, and some of

1177
01:05:28.280 --> 01:05:31.159
<v Speaker 6>them because it was so big and at the distance,

1178
01:05:31.320 --> 01:05:33.559
<v Speaker 6>it looked it looked like it was in the sky.

1179
01:05:33.840 --> 01:05:36.880
<v Speaker 6>And so you have the first UFO is a tall

1180
01:05:36.960 --> 01:05:37.719
<v Speaker 6>ship in the sky.

1181
01:05:38.519 --> 01:05:40.280
<v Speaker 2>All right, we're out of time for the main show.

1182
01:05:40.320 --> 01:05:42.840
<v Speaker 2>We continue this on our Patreon, but tell people one

1183
01:05:42.920 --> 01:05:44.920
<v Speaker 2>more time where they can find you and your.

1184
01:05:44.880 --> 01:05:50.000
<v Speaker 6>Podcast, Parasardium. The channel is Parasodium nine three three on

1185
01:05:50.159 --> 01:05:56.880
<v Speaker 6>YouTube nine three three and on Spotify and all of that.

1186
01:05:57.159 --> 01:06:01.079
<v Speaker 6>It's called Mysterier Creations, which was our former name.

1187
01:06:01.199 --> 01:06:02.719
<v Speaker 2>Okay, I want to spell that last one.

1188
01:06:02.840 --> 01:06:07.559
<v Speaker 6>It's m I S T E y R E Creations, Okay, right,

1189
01:06:07.960 --> 01:06:11.679
<v Speaker 6>and that's it's a creole work. It's what, it's a

1190
01:06:11.719 --> 01:06:16.360
<v Speaker 6>creole work. I mean the language creole. Oh okay, language creole.

1191
01:06:16.960 --> 01:06:22.760
<v Speaker 6>It's creole French. My family is French Canadian. But we

1192
01:06:23.239 --> 01:06:26.599
<v Speaker 6>went down to Louisiana, got picked out and went back

1193
01:06:26.639 --> 01:06:30.280
<v Speaker 6>and forth. So I when we first named the podcast,

1194
01:06:30.360 --> 01:06:31.199
<v Speaker 6>we named it after that.

1195
01:06:31.400 --> 01:06:33.039
<v Speaker 2>Gotcha, Okay, Well, thank you for this.

1196
01:06:33.360 --> 01:06:36.199

1230
01:09:09.239 --> 01:09:11.800
<v Speaker 2>so I got some really cool stuff coming up in

1231
01:09:11.840 --> 01:09:15.960
<v Speaker 2>the next few weeks. The quick book update is that

1232
01:09:16.239 --> 01:09:20.399
<v Speaker 2>my book is pretty much done. Is Suzanne Chancellor is

1233
01:09:20.479 --> 01:09:23.279
<v Speaker 2>currently doing some editing on it, and I have a

1234
01:09:23.319 --> 01:09:25.600
<v Speaker 2>couple of people proof reading it and just kind of

1235
01:09:25.640 --> 01:09:28.520
<v Speaker 2>going over it, and then hopefully this summer, at some

1236
01:09:28.680 --> 01:09:32.399
<v Speaker 2>point you will be able to get finally, after all

1237
01:09:32.439 --> 01:09:36.359
<v Speaker 2>these years, my first actual book, which will probably just

1238
01:09:36.439 --> 01:09:39.319
<v Speaker 2>be called Where that the Road Go, And it's an

1239
01:09:39.359 --> 01:09:42.239
<v Speaker 2>autobiography that only goes up to nineteen ninety six because

1240
01:09:42.279 --> 01:09:45.239
<v Speaker 2>there's a lot. It's going to be like three hundred

1241
01:09:45.279 --> 01:09:49.800
<v Speaker 2>pages or so, and hopefully if people like it, I

1242
01:09:49.880 --> 01:09:51.840
<v Speaker 2>will get the next part out a lot quicker. I

1243
01:09:51.920 --> 01:09:54.239
<v Speaker 2>will be working on an audiobook for it as well,

1244
01:09:55.279 --> 01:09:59.439
<v Speaker 2>so that is finally hopefully going to happen very very soon.

1245
01:10:00.279 --> 01:10:03.079
<v Speaker 2>But I also want it to be as good as

1246
01:10:03.119 --> 01:10:06.800
<v Speaker 2>it can be when it gets released. So yeah, I

1247
01:10:06.880 --> 01:10:09.319
<v Speaker 2>wanted to have it out May fifteenth, honestly, that was

1248
01:10:09.760 --> 01:10:13.000
<v Speaker 2>my goal. Now it's looking more like, you know, maybe August,

1249
01:10:13.279 --> 01:10:17.119
<v Speaker 2>but this summer almost certainly the book will finally come

1250
01:10:17.159 --> 01:10:22.760
<v Speaker 2>out all right to take you out. There's a I

1251
01:10:22.840 --> 01:10:27.159
<v Speaker 2>guess well, I'll tell this little story here. This song

1252
01:10:27.800 --> 01:10:31.159
<v Speaker 2>is from a band called Space Dust do u zzt.

1253
01:10:32.800 --> 01:10:35.319
<v Speaker 2>And when we did our anniversary show for the Last

1254
01:10:35.359 --> 01:10:38.279
<v Speaker 2>Eggs for the Lost this year, that the one that

1255
01:10:38.359 --> 01:10:41.119
<v Speaker 2>we did live. We use since COVID, we've only really

1256
01:10:41.199 --> 01:10:44.079
<v Speaker 2>done one a year live on the anniversary of the show.

1257
01:10:45.279 --> 01:10:49.720
<v Speaker 2>And it was a wacky show, as it gets to

1258
01:10:49.800 --> 01:10:54.399
<v Speaker 2>be sometimes. And at some point we mentioned twinkies, and

1259
01:10:54.520 --> 01:10:58.039
<v Speaker 2>in particular, my co host Seth, known as the Sloth,

1260
01:11:00.279 --> 01:11:04.439
<v Speaker 2>used to have a thing for twinkies. And then they

1261
01:11:04.479 --> 01:11:08.560
<v Speaker 2>stopped making twinkies and he didn't really his memory is

1262
01:11:08.600 --> 01:11:11.520
<v Speaker 2>so bad he didn't remember they stopped making twinkies. And

1263
01:11:11.680 --> 01:11:13.399
<v Speaker 2>then he realized he hadn't had a twinkie in a

1264
01:11:13.479 --> 01:11:16.359
<v Speaker 2>really long time, and he hadn't had probably hadn't had

1265
01:11:16.399 --> 01:11:19.359
<v Speaker 2>them since they started making them again. And we had

1266
01:11:19.399 --> 01:11:24.159
<v Speaker 2>these two listeners who uh showed up spontaneously with a

1267
01:11:24.199 --> 01:11:27.159
<v Speaker 2>bunch of twinkies like two o'clock in the morning. It

1268
01:11:27.279 --> 01:11:31.159
<v Speaker 2>was awesome, and uh, one of them, I think, and

1269
01:11:31.319 --> 01:11:34.199
<v Speaker 2>maybe both of them are in this band Space Dust,

1270
01:11:34.840 --> 01:11:39.479
<v Speaker 2>and I think it's mostly the vocalist, uh, it says

1271
01:11:39.520 --> 01:11:41.960
<v Speaker 2>these songs are written performed by me. Her name's nix

1272
01:11:42.079 --> 01:11:45.560
<v Speaker 2>A Bot and that's nyx b h A T T

1273
01:11:47.079 --> 01:11:50.079
<v Speaker 2>and it's nicksbot dot com if you want to check

1274
01:11:50.119 --> 01:11:55.119

1275
01:11:55.119 --> 01:11:56.760
<v Speaker 2>not sure what that. I don't really know how to

1276
01:11:56.840 --> 01:11:59.840
<v Speaker 2>describe it. But this song, in particular, storms, I kind
