the military defense budget of Hell. And you know, we

00:05:24,439 --> 00:05:24,680
Speaker 4: You know.

132
00:05:25,360 --> 00:05:27,199

But but do kids love me?

136
00:05:33,480 --> 00:05:36,120
Speaker 2: Kids don't know about kids. I mean maybe a couple

140
00:05:44,360 --> 00:05:46,240
Speaker 4: I don't think they're that dark.

141
00:05:46,519 --> 00:05:51,879
Speaker 5: I hmm, well all right, but regardless, Chris, surely you

142
00:05:52,160 --> 00:05:55,079
read my works in a high school or perhaps for fun.

143
00:05:55,120 --> 00:05:56,439
Speaker 3: Maybe for high school?

144
00:05:56,720 --> 00:05:58,319

167
00:07:01,600 --> 00:07:05,839
Speaker 5: There's nothing happier or scary about a talking bird.

168
00:07:06,079 --> 00:07:08,959
Speaker 2: Yeah, but doesn't someone die in that, like the bird

169
00:07:09,079 --> 00:07:10,399
drives someone insane?

170
00:07:10,600 --> 00:07:11,120
Speaker 1: Yeah?

171
00:07:11,160 --> 00:07:13,079
Speaker 2: You know those are That's great. You know, I want

172
00:07:13,079 --> 00:07:14,879
that in my books. I want people to read it

173
00:07:14,879 --> 00:07:15,600
and go crazy.

174
00:07:15,680 --> 00:07:17,800
Speaker 5: I just, hm, I feel like I'm being a little

175
00:07:17,800 --> 00:07:22,759
misunderstood here. It was actually about a beautiful furry friend

176
00:07:22,879 --> 00:07:26,319
that comes and helps a friend grieve over a lost one.

177
00:07:26,600 --> 00:07:29,399
You know, kids growing up, it's very important to the

178
00:07:29,480 --> 00:07:32,800
developments that they learn how to grieve and move on,

179
00:07:33,720 --> 00:07:35,199
you know, part of the beauty of life.

180
00:07:35,639 --> 00:07:37,279
Speaker 1: So that wasn't supposed to be creepy.

181
00:07:37,480 --> 00:07:38,439
Speaker 3: No, not at all.

182
00:07:39,120 --> 00:07:42,560
Speaker 5: A midnight friend comes and visits while you're sitting in

183
00:07:42,600 --> 00:07:46,560
front of a nice, warm, cozy fireplace on a cold

184
00:07:46,600 --> 00:07:47,920
and chilly December day.

185
00:07:48,199 --> 00:07:49,879
Speaker 4: No, not frightening at all.

186
00:07:51,319 --> 00:07:55,040
Speaker 2: Well, I mean I personally I think that you know,

187
00:07:55,120 --> 00:07:57,959
you excel at horror. Horror, right, yeah, and that's why

188
00:07:57,959 --> 00:07:59,720
I want to bring you on. You know, for this,

189
00:08:00,399 --> 00:08:02,120
so like you know, I mean, could you give us

190
00:08:02,279 --> 00:08:04,759
a sample of some of your writing, like you know,

191
00:08:04,959 --> 00:08:06,600
to write write a poem about me right now?

192
00:08:06,680 --> 00:08:07,240
Speaker 4: Oh why?

193
00:08:07,319 --> 00:08:11,439
Speaker 5: Of course, a vocal demon with skins so red, he

194
00:08:11,519 --> 00:08:16,319
disliked his assistant and chopped off his head, covered in blood.

195
00:08:16,040 --> 00:08:17,519
Speaker 4: Shits, bile, and gore.

196
00:08:17,959 --> 00:08:20,720
Speaker 5: The demon laughed and went back for more.

197
00:08:21,160 --> 00:08:24,120
Speaker 1: Okay, that's not bad, Chris, Yeah, yeah, great. You don't

198
00:08:24,160 --> 00:08:26,279
have to necessarily follow through with it all. It's I

199
00:08:26,319 --> 00:08:27,600
think it was more just a suggestion.

200
00:08:27,959 --> 00:08:29,439
Speaker 4: Well no, I I only.

201
00:08:29,240 --> 00:08:31,639
Speaker 5: Write from real life experience, so I do have to

202
00:08:31,639 --> 00:08:33,559
watch him do it or else I can't.

203
00:08:33,559 --> 00:08:34,440
Speaker 4: I can't publish that.

204
00:08:34,960 --> 00:08:36,960
Speaker 2: But I mean you agree that that's that's that's not

205
00:08:37,000 --> 00:08:41,279
for kids. I mean you even say shit.

206
00:08:41,240 --> 00:08:42,480
Speaker 3: And bile and gore.

207
00:08:42,639 --> 00:08:44,720
Speaker 1: I mean, yeah, it's really creepy. I mean you even

208
00:08:44,759 --> 00:08:47,000
get ripped off by Alfred Hitchcock. I mean he made

209
00:08:47,000 --> 00:08:50,399
a whole horror movie about like birds attacking people.

210
00:08:50,960 --> 00:08:53,600
Speaker 5: Yeah, I can I can see that. I just hmm,

211
00:08:54,159 --> 00:08:56,399
I've been friends with virgine. You go to the park,

212
00:08:56,440 --> 00:08:59,080
you feed them, you throw some breadcrumbs, they all flock.

213
00:08:59,519 --> 00:09:00,840
Speaker 4: It's a beautiful sight.

214
00:09:01,159 --> 00:09:03,759
Speaker 1: Right, it's a. It's a horror movie. You know, it's

215
00:09:03,840 --> 00:09:04,759
meant to be scary.

216
00:09:04,840 --> 00:09:07,879
Speaker 5: Birds are creepy, Chris. Honestly, I think that's some of

217
00:09:07,879 --> 00:09:09,639
that teenage rebellion in you.

218
00:09:10,120 --> 00:09:11,039
Speaker 1: I'm not a teenager.

219
00:09:11,279 --> 00:09:12,720
Speaker 4: It's a family movie.

220
00:09:13,279 --> 00:09:17,799
Speaker 5: Hitchcock was known for his family movies like Psycho A

221
00:09:17,919 --> 00:09:20,519
Boy Loves his Mother. It doesn't get any more wholesome

222
00:09:20,559 --> 00:09:25,679
than that. Well, I mean, agree to disagree.

223
00:09:25,799 --> 00:09:27,399
Speaker 4: I suppose, okay.

224
00:09:27,120 --> 00:09:28,120
Speaker 3: Well disagree.

225
00:09:28,200 --> 00:09:30,919
Speaker 1: What was your family life like then? Growing up?

226
00:09:31,000 --> 00:09:32,519
Speaker 4: It was rather complicated.

227
00:09:33,120 --> 00:09:37,919
Speaker 5: I married a cousin and you did, Yes, yes, I did.

228
00:09:38,080 --> 00:09:39,559
Speaker 1: Okay, that checks out.

229
00:09:39,639 --> 00:09:42,519
Speaker 5: Baltimore was tough in the late eighties. You know, you

230
00:09:42,679 --> 00:09:45,480
just you gotta, you gotta watch out for your own,

231
00:09:45,600 --> 00:09:50,360
you know, the late eighties, yes, of course, the eighteen eighties. Oh, okay,

232
00:09:50,679 --> 00:09:53,080
it's gonna say Baltimore. The nineteeners is like, you know

233
00:09:53,279 --> 00:09:54,279
that that was a fun time.

234
00:09:54,360 --> 00:09:56,519
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, I guess watching out for your own

235
00:09:56,600 --> 00:09:59,960
though often doesn't mean like marrying and sleeping with.

236
00:10:00,279 --> 00:10:05,080
Speaker 5: Them sometimes sometimes, but sometimes you know, it's it's about

237
00:10:05,120 --> 00:10:08,440
the closeness of family and bringing everyone together.

238
00:10:08,679 --> 00:10:11,639
Speaker 4: You know, I don't know that's all right.

239
00:10:11,679 --> 00:10:14,879
Speaker 5: It gave me the valuable insight that I needed to

240
00:10:14,960 --> 00:10:18,639
go on and work on many a kid's show.

241
00:10:19,080 --> 00:10:19,600
Speaker 1: Yeah.

242
00:10:20,519 --> 00:10:23,080
Speaker 5: Oh yeah, Well, you know a few years ago I

243
00:10:23,320 --> 00:10:26,480
went up to Earth and I was a scriptwriter for

244
00:10:26,559 --> 00:10:29,440
That's So Raven. I wanted to take my love for

245
00:10:29,600 --> 00:10:34,600
birds and channel that into a fun, supernatural romp through

246
00:10:34,759 --> 00:10:35,679
family drama.

247
00:10:36,240 --> 00:10:38,200
Speaker 1: Okay, well that one is kind of a kid show,

248
00:10:38,399 --> 00:10:39,480
so yeah, yeah.

249
00:10:40,639 --> 00:10:41,799
Speaker 4: Yeah, it's it's funny.

250
00:10:42,120 --> 00:10:45,799
Speaker 5: Despite possessing the lead writer for many, many months, they

251
00:10:45,799 --> 00:10:48,840
didn't actually use any of my scripts. Can you believe it?

252
00:10:49,440 --> 00:10:52,200
Speaker 1: They I can. Actually, Well, they kept.

253
00:10:52,039 --> 00:10:57,399
Speaker 5: The name and and that's what's important, Raven's trademark opposed domain.

254
00:10:58,399 --> 00:11:00,519
Speaker 1: So since you died, what else do you been doing?

255
00:11:00,639 --> 00:11:04,279
I mean, besides I guess haunting and staying in hell?

256
00:11:04,399 --> 00:11:05,279
Like what do you? What do you do?

257
00:11:05,600 --> 00:11:05,759
Speaker 5: Oh?

258
00:11:05,840 --> 00:11:06,279
Speaker 4: Yeah, you know.

259
00:11:06,360 --> 00:11:08,440
Speaker 5: I I've refined my work a lot. I go to

260
00:11:08,799 --> 00:11:11,559
some of those fun poetry workshops down here in Hell.

261
00:11:12,039 --> 00:11:16,120
Speaker 4: I adore them. Other people maybe not so much.

262
00:11:16,360 --> 00:11:17,720
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, I mean it's hell.

263
00:11:17,919 --> 00:11:19,279
Speaker 4: It is hell. Indeed.

264
00:11:20,200 --> 00:11:20,320
Speaker 2: Uh.

265
00:11:20,600 --> 00:11:23,200
Speaker 5: You know, I have been working on a new piece.

266
00:11:23,440 --> 00:11:24,320
Speaker 4: Would you like to hear it?

267
00:11:25,200 --> 00:11:25,399
Speaker 3: Yeah?

268
00:11:25,679 --> 00:11:27,759
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean you're you're here to show me that

269
00:11:27,840 --> 00:11:30,519
you can write my books, so I need to see your.

270
00:11:30,559 --> 00:11:33,039
Speaker 5: Of course, I think this will really be a turning

271
00:11:33,120 --> 00:11:34,240
round point in this interview.

272
00:11:34,399 --> 00:11:35,759
Speaker 1: Okay, what is this piece?

273
00:11:36,080 --> 00:11:42,080
Speaker 4: This is phallic floor. Okay, with fallis to the floor,

274
00:11:42,360 --> 00:11:44,000
there was no hope for cleanness.

275
00:11:45,000 --> 00:11:49,840
Speaker 5: He's a rose colored hellion with a giant penis. Though

276
00:11:49,879 --> 00:11:53,000
it was hard, he tried living with his mass, but

277
00:11:53,120 --> 00:12:00,879
once we'll hiking, he drug it through glass. I know, terrible, right, yeah, yeah, you.

278
00:12:00,840 --> 00:12:02,919
Speaker 2: Had me there in the beginning, you know, with giant

279
00:12:02,960 --> 00:12:06,559
ding dongs and all that stuff. And why do you

280
00:12:06,600 --> 00:12:08,279
have to make him drug it through glass? I mean

281
00:12:08,320 --> 00:12:09,639
that's the poem, I know, I guess.

282
00:12:09,720 --> 00:12:12,159
Speaker 5: Yeah, it's important to teach kids that, you know, it's

283
00:12:12,639 --> 00:12:13,879
it's hard, not life out there?

284
00:12:13,960 --> 00:12:16,799
Speaker 1: Right Wait wait, wait, that poem is to teach kids

285
00:12:16,840 --> 00:12:19,480
not to drag their ding dong through glass.

286
00:12:19,799 --> 00:12:23,440
Speaker 5: Of course, Christopher, did no one tell you not to

287
00:12:23,519 --> 00:12:25,720
drag your ding dong through glass when you were a.

288
00:12:25,720 --> 00:12:29,039
Speaker 6: Kid, No, no one did. And it never came up, really,

289
00:12:29,120 --> 00:12:34,759
not once. You've never once cut your ding dong with glass? No, Well,

290
00:12:35,679 --> 00:12:37,559
different worlds, I suppose, different worlds.

291
00:12:37,879 --> 00:12:39,679
Speaker 1: I know it was the same world.

292
00:12:39,759 --> 00:12:41,399
Speaker 3: You give or take a hundred years.

293
00:12:41,480 --> 00:12:44,759
Speaker 5: Yeah, but one hundred Baltimore has changed so much, hasn't it.

294
00:12:44,960 --> 00:12:46,679
Speaker 3: I mean, then you have the Ravens. What are your

295
00:12:46,720 --> 00:12:48,200
thoughts on the Baltimore Ravens.

296
00:12:48,000 --> 00:12:48,519
Speaker 5: A good team.

297
00:12:48,559 --> 00:12:49,919
Speaker 4: I tried out for them once.

298
00:12:50,000 --> 00:12:55,559
Speaker 5: Actually, well it turns out that as a puny twerp

299
00:12:55,840 --> 00:12:59,120
who can't throw a football quite well, I did not

300
00:12:59,279 --> 00:12:59,720
do well.

301
00:13:00,480 --> 00:13:03,519
Speaker 2: Yes, okay, yeah, it's kind of, uh, you know, similar

302
00:13:03,559 --> 00:13:04,759
to how this job interview.

303
00:13:04,519 --> 00:13:04,960
Speaker 3: Is going there.

304
00:13:05,039 --> 00:13:09,600
Speaker 5: Well, it's a matter of perspective. I think it's going wonderfully. Yeah, Chris,

305
00:13:09,759 --> 00:13:10,600
surely you agree.

306
00:13:10,919 --> 00:13:12,879
Speaker 1: You just told me all about dragging my ding dong

307
00:13:12,960 --> 00:13:14,360
through not to do.

308
00:13:14,519 --> 00:13:16,559
Speaker 5: It's good life advice.

309
00:13:17,480 --> 00:13:19,519
Speaker 2: Tell me about somebody that you you hate, you know,

310
00:13:19,639 --> 00:13:21,440
like I want to to hear about the evil side

311
00:13:21,440 --> 00:13:23,360
of Edgar and Poe, or.

312
00:13:23,360 --> 00:13:28,039
Speaker 5: You want the evil side of Edgar Allan Poe yea, yeah, yeah,

313
00:13:28,240 --> 00:13:29,320
Look no further.

314
00:13:29,080 --> 00:13:30,279
Speaker 4: Than Mark Twain.

315
00:13:31,039 --> 00:13:32,639
Speaker 5: I mean, who does he think he is?

316
00:13:32,879 --> 00:13:34,320
Speaker 4: He wears all whites.

317
00:13:35,039 --> 00:13:38,960
Speaker 5: Black is obviously the color for a man of his stature.

318
00:13:39,240 --> 00:13:42,000
Speaker 4: I mean his books are nonsensical too.

319
00:13:42,000 --> 00:13:44,320
Speaker 2: So to be clear, you don't like Mark Twain just

320
00:13:44,320 --> 00:13:46,480
because he kind of looks like you but just wears white.

321
00:13:46,639 --> 00:13:50,039
He's like the anti Edgar Allan Poe, saying, yes, he

322
00:13:50,200 --> 00:13:51,440
copped my style.

323
00:13:51,960 --> 00:13:55,600
Speaker 1: Well, but his stories aren't really anything similar.

324
00:13:56,000 --> 00:13:59,120
Speaker 4: They're about teaching kids valuable lessons. They're quite similar, Chris.

325
00:13:59,120 --> 00:14:01,440
Speaker 2: Come on, I mean, what other lessons have you tried

326
00:14:01,440 --> 00:14:04,080
to teach children? I mean, you keep talking about you.

327
00:14:04,279 --> 00:14:06,559
You're all about the kids, but all your writing is

328
00:14:06,559 --> 00:14:07,440
still creepy though.

329
00:14:07,639 --> 00:14:11,000
Speaker 5: Yeah, you might be familiar with my famous story The

330
00:14:11,000 --> 00:14:12,279
Cask of montiel Doo.

331
00:14:12,679 --> 00:14:17,879
Speaker 2: Yes, of course, that's the one where, uh, Chris, can

332
00:14:17,919 --> 00:14:19,159
you say that that word for us?

333
00:14:20,559 --> 00:14:23,320
Speaker 3: No? No, no, no, no, Chris, I want.

334
00:14:23,159 --> 00:14:25,759
Speaker 4: To hear you. It's a children's storytelle.

335
00:14:25,879 --> 00:14:27,840
Speaker 5: Surely anyone can say the word.

336
00:14:28,080 --> 00:14:31,840
Speaker 1: Yeah, pronounce that word, Chris, all right, I will. It's

337
00:14:31,960 --> 00:14:37,159
the the cask, the cask of a Monteado yado.

338
00:14:38,159 --> 00:14:40,679
Speaker 4: Beautifully done, Chris, beautifully done.

339
00:14:41,120 --> 00:14:47,039
Speaker 3: Yes, Chili's waiter. Yes, I'll have one Montilado please. That's

340
00:14:47,080 --> 00:14:47,840
what you sound like.

341
00:14:49,360 --> 00:14:53,279
Speaker 1: So if high school English sears me correctly, that story

342
00:14:53,360 --> 00:14:59,960
is about uh, a guy who he gets his enemy

343
00:15:00,919 --> 00:15:03,759
and then walls him up inside and kills him.

344
00:15:03,840 --> 00:15:06,399
Speaker 5: And not quite you have the first half correct, I

345
00:15:07,200 --> 00:15:09,480
have a friend over, we get drunk. It's a good time,

346
00:15:10,519 --> 00:15:16,039
and then I wall him up and bam shazam, a

347
00:15:16,200 --> 00:15:20,519
giant wine bottle bursts out of the wall and offers

348
00:15:20,600 --> 00:15:24,279
us both a cask of a Montialdo you're.

349
00:15:24,120 --> 00:15:26,720
Speaker 2: Saying you invented the kool aid Man before the kool

350
00:15:26,720 --> 00:15:27,480
aid Man was a thing.

351
00:15:27,559 --> 00:15:29,720
Speaker 5: Yes, that is quite exactly what I am saying.

352
00:15:30,360 --> 00:15:35,919
Speaker 1: So that story is just the prequel the origin.

353
00:15:37,039 --> 00:15:37,799
Speaker 3: A man begins.

354
00:15:37,879 --> 00:15:40,360
Speaker 5: Yeah, he got watered down over the years, and now

355
00:15:40,399 --> 00:15:43,879
he's more kid friendly because your wine wine shouldn't be

356
00:15:43,919 --> 00:15:47,039
served to minors, and I've learned that over the years.

357
00:15:48,759 --> 00:15:51,360
Speaker 1: Yeah. So you you had a big drinking problem up

358
00:15:51,360 --> 00:15:52,360
on Earth, though, is that right?

359
00:15:52,639 --> 00:15:53,240
Speaker 4: I did?

360
00:15:53,679 --> 00:15:56,320
Speaker 5: I did, and it was quite terrible. It actually it

361
00:15:56,399 --> 00:16:00,039
led to my death. You know, many speculate that I

362
00:16:00,080 --> 00:16:05,240
died in the streets, but but that's not quite right.

363
00:16:06,559 --> 00:16:07,159
Speaker 4: Good one.

364
00:16:07,519 --> 00:16:09,960
Speaker 1: Uh no, well, his cousin.

365
00:16:11,320 --> 00:16:16,639
Speaker 5: She actually died before I did, so, yes, a bit

366
00:16:16,720 --> 00:16:19,360
a bit of failure on my part, not not really

367
00:16:19,399 --> 00:16:21,240
looking out for family the way I should have.

368
00:16:22,399 --> 00:16:23,919
Speaker 1: Yeah, so how did you die?

369
00:16:23,960 --> 00:16:24,120
Speaker 2: Then?

370
00:16:24,240 --> 00:16:28,279
Speaker 5: I was hanging out with the birds, the bees, the bears,

371
00:16:28,399 --> 00:16:31,519
you know, all of my fun cute little animal friends.

372
00:16:32,759 --> 00:16:38,320
And I was I was a few glasses bottles bars

373
00:16:38,360 --> 00:16:42,600
into the night, you know, uh huh. And I had

374
00:16:42,600 --> 00:16:45,200
a small wolf companion following me.

375
00:16:45,279 --> 00:16:49,279
Speaker 4: He was the best of friends. His name was Barry. Well.

376
00:16:49,279 --> 00:16:54,720
Speaker 5: Barry bit me and that led to me contracting rabies,

377
00:16:55,679 --> 00:16:59,759
which awful. Let me tell you what. Your body shakes

378
00:16:59,759 --> 00:17:04,000
you from the mouth. I was looking awful, right, of course,

379
00:17:04,039 --> 00:17:07,440
that's not how I died. No, No, I died when

380
00:17:07,480 --> 00:17:10,079
the coroner pronounced me dead and buried me.

381
00:17:10,279 --> 00:17:10,480
Speaker 3: Yeah.

382
00:17:10,559 --> 00:17:12,359
Speaker 1: Yeah, you were found in the street dead.

383
00:17:12,440 --> 00:17:14,519
Speaker 3: Yeah, and then they buried you like because you're a

384
00:17:14,559 --> 00:17:14,880
dead guy.

385
00:17:15,599 --> 00:17:18,640
Speaker 4: Almost I was buried alive, you see.

386
00:17:18,720 --> 00:17:20,799
Speaker 1: Oh oh oh god, that's awful.

387
00:17:21,799 --> 00:17:27,240
Speaker 5: It is actually my number one fear. And it did,

388
00:17:27,519 --> 00:17:30,559
it did, Chris, Thank you for that astute observation.

389
00:17:30,880 --> 00:17:33,079
Speaker 2: Yeah, So, I mean, how long did you last there?

390
00:17:33,079 --> 00:17:36,400
I mean the the oxygen must have run out and

391
00:17:36,480 --> 00:17:38,599
you know, a couple of minutes.

392
00:17:38,599 --> 00:17:43,240
Speaker 5: You you would think. So it turns out wasn't buried

393
00:17:43,319 --> 00:17:45,640
very deep, deep enough that I couldn't get out, you know,

394
00:17:46,079 --> 00:17:49,640
coffin was a little leaky. So a few months, two

395
00:17:49,759 --> 00:17:50,400
maybe three?

396
00:17:51,799 --> 00:17:54,480
Speaker 3: You were buried for two or three months?

397
00:17:55,000 --> 00:17:58,960
Speaker 5: Yes, I lived off of my leather vest at the time,

398
00:18:00,119 --> 00:18:01,039
little chewy.

399
00:18:00,759 --> 00:18:02,160
Speaker 4: But it got the job done.

400
00:18:02,680 --> 00:18:05,400
Speaker 5: What about water, Well, you wouldn't believe it.

401
00:18:05,839 --> 00:18:08,279
Speaker 4: God gave me a mirror. Sorry, I don't say God

402
00:18:08,319 --> 00:18:08,720
down here.

403
00:18:09,319 --> 00:18:13,400
Speaker 5: I was sent a miracle from above. Water leaked into

404
00:18:13,480 --> 00:18:16,440
my coffin and substained me for those many months.

405
00:18:16,640 --> 00:18:18,440
Speaker 3: Oh was it like? Was it the rain season or

406
00:18:18,799 --> 00:18:19,640
it was dry?

407
00:18:20,079 --> 00:18:22,759
Speaker 5: It was dry. I had some enemies, uh huh, and

408
00:18:24,720 --> 00:18:28,519
they did not like me, so they literally pissed on

409
00:18:28,640 --> 00:18:29,240
my grave.

410
00:18:30,839 --> 00:18:31,079
Speaker 4: Wow.

411
00:18:32,039 --> 00:18:35,079
Speaker 1: Little did they know? It was exactly what you needed

412
00:18:35,119 --> 00:18:39,720
to stay alivee yes, quite yeah. You drank piss for

413
00:18:39,759 --> 00:18:44,839
three weeks though, three wess yes, three months, and they

414
00:18:44,920 --> 00:18:47,160
kept going back to peace, so they it wasn't just

415
00:18:47,160 --> 00:18:48,720
like you for a little bit.

416
00:18:48,759 --> 00:18:51,200
Speaker 4: My coffin was actually flooded, and I was worried.

417
00:18:51,200 --> 00:18:55,640
Speaker 5: I didn't run out of oxygen because it was overflowing. Yes,

418
00:18:56,680 --> 00:18:59,680
that's upsetting extremely So I mean while you.

419
00:18:59,599 --> 00:19:01,160
Speaker 3: Were down or did you get anything done?

420
00:19:01,240 --> 00:19:06,279
Speaker 2: I mean aside from drinking piss and chewing on your shoes?

421
00:19:06,319 --> 00:19:10,400
Speaker 5: And actually, yes, I wrote perhaps my magnum Opus, the

422
00:19:10,440 --> 00:19:14,720
best poem to ever be composed by Poe. Okay, hear

423
00:19:14,759 --> 00:19:19,480
it soaking wet and searching for a towel. My cloth

424
00:19:19,519 --> 00:19:23,559
had gone missing, taken by a fowl. Naked and running

425
00:19:23,599 --> 00:19:26,920
through this wretched bird. But fast as I was, I

426
00:19:26,960 --> 00:19:29,200
could not escape this feathered turd.

427
00:19:30,920 --> 00:19:34,079
Speaker 3: That is a poem about you running from a towel

428
00:19:34,400 --> 00:19:35,920
being stolen.

429
00:19:35,519 --> 00:19:38,799
Speaker 5: From you by There's a poem about the piss leaking

430
00:19:38,799 --> 00:19:41,640
through my coffin, an inevitable shit that made its way down.

431
00:19:42,400 --> 00:19:46,079
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, wow, it's creepy, weird.

432
00:19:46,319 --> 00:19:49,640
Speaker 5: It is quite creepy when someone literally shits on your grave.

433
00:19:51,039 --> 00:19:53,880
Speaker 1: Yes, well that one wasn't for kids, so that's that.

434
00:19:54,000 --> 00:19:56,559
Speaker 5: Oh no, no, no, that one is definitely for kids.

435
00:19:58,440 --> 00:20:01,240
Speaker 3: How how I trust no one?

436
00:20:01,279 --> 00:20:01,839
Speaker 4: Of course?

437
00:20:02,160 --> 00:20:04,599
Speaker 3: Okay, yeah, I guess that's that's a lesson that you

438
00:20:04,640 --> 00:20:07,400
would teach children. But kind of a weird delivery of said.

439
00:20:07,519 --> 00:20:11,559
Speaker 5: Yes, yeah, don't drag your dick through glass, don't trust anyone, huh,

440
00:20:11,599 --> 00:20:13,640
and cut off Chris's head.

441
00:20:13,720 --> 00:20:14,920
Speaker 4: Those are my three lessons.

442
00:20:15,160 --> 00:20:18,759
Speaker 2: Okay, yah, all right, Well you know, doctor Seuss, but

443
00:20:19,240 --> 00:20:22,200
you are you are something else.

444
00:20:22,240 --> 00:20:23,640
Speaker 3: I'll give you that buch shed ground pow.

445
00:20:23,920 --> 00:20:25,680
Speaker 4: Thank you, thank you very very much.

446
00:20:26,279 --> 00:20:31,799
Speaker 1: So what makes you want this job? Writing? Clayton's biography.

447
00:20:32,359 --> 00:20:35,039
Speaker 4: Yeah, well I've gotten a little rusty.

448
00:20:35,279 --> 00:20:38,920
Speaker 5: The home workshops down here aren't all that lively, you know.

449
00:20:39,319 --> 00:20:42,079
Speaker 1: Yeah. The poetry slams are just like they just take

450
00:20:42,119 --> 00:20:43,880
poets and drop things on the.

451
00:20:44,160 --> 00:20:47,880
Speaker 4: Slams against wall. Yeah, yes, quite quite unfortunate.

452
00:20:48,440 --> 00:20:50,480
Speaker 5: So I thought it was time for a career change.

453
00:20:51,200 --> 00:20:53,640
And when I saw when I saw the advertisement, of

454
00:20:53,680 --> 00:20:56,400
course I had to take up the offer. I mean

455
00:20:56,480 --> 00:21:00,279
to write about the King of Hell's younger brother. There

456
00:21:01,039 --> 00:21:02,079
who could pass that up?

457
00:21:03,160 --> 00:21:06,440
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, a lot of people actually, have there been

458
00:21:06,440 --> 00:21:07,599
any other applications.

459
00:21:08,119 --> 00:21:10,640
Speaker 2: I mean, I tried getting Frank Herbert, you know, I

460
00:21:10,720 --> 00:21:13,640
kind of wanted a Dune style biography.

461
00:21:13,839 --> 00:21:15,960
Speaker 3: But yeah, he's got me on read he left me

462
00:21:16,000 --> 00:21:16,400
on red.

463
00:21:16,920 --> 00:21:18,240
Speaker 4: That does sound quite like him?

464
00:21:18,319 --> 00:21:19,000
Speaker 1: Anyone else?

465
00:21:19,720 --> 00:21:20,119
Speaker 2: J R.

466
00:21:20,200 --> 00:21:24,039
Speaker 3: Tolkien? That'd be cool, Yeah, it would.

467
00:21:23,920 --> 00:21:26,119
Speaker 1: Be if you'd respond.

468
00:21:26,920 --> 00:21:29,960
Speaker 3: JK. Rowling is probably gonna be down here soon, get hurt.

469
00:21:30,039 --> 00:21:32,039
Speaker 4: Almost assuredly, most assuredly. Yes.

470
00:21:32,680 --> 00:21:37,039
Speaker 1: So another of your famous stories is The Tail Tell Heart.

471
00:21:37,960 --> 00:21:38,839
Speaker 4: Yes, yes it is.

472
00:21:39,039 --> 00:21:42,599
Speaker 1: Yeah. So that's a story about a guy who killed

473
00:21:42,640 --> 00:21:46,960
someone and then goes insane because he hears the heartbeat

474
00:21:47,079 --> 00:21:50,160
of the person he murdered in the walls.

475
00:21:50,319 --> 00:21:52,240
Speaker 3: Yeah, he's like buried somewhere in the house.

476
00:21:52,319 --> 00:21:55,039
Speaker 1: Yeah, how is that a kid's story?

477
00:21:55,400 --> 00:21:59,799
Speaker 5: I see, that's actually a very common misconception. It's a metaphor.

478
00:22:00,799 --> 00:22:02,119
It's a metaphor for love.

479
00:22:03,200 --> 00:22:05,799
Speaker 4: Well, you see, it.

480
00:22:05,680 --> 00:22:10,400
Speaker 5: Was the summer of eighty three and I had yes,

481
00:22:10,559 --> 00:22:15,680
and I had just spotted my cousin. Oh, and I

482
00:22:15,680 --> 00:22:19,160
could feel my heart going pump, pump, pump. And if

483
00:22:19,240 --> 00:22:23,480
my body were a house, it would be under the floorboards.

484
00:22:24,160 --> 00:22:26,960
So I cut it up into little pieces and tore departs.

485
00:22:27,000 --> 00:22:30,240
Speaker 1: And so you had this voice in your head telling

486
00:22:30,359 --> 00:22:34,200
you you'd done something wrong because you were interested in

487
00:22:34,240 --> 00:22:34,720
your cousin.

488
00:22:35,279 --> 00:22:38,640
Speaker 5: No, because I had fallen in love. Come on, who

489
00:22:38,680 --> 00:22:41,240
here hasn't had a little fleeing or something with a

490
00:22:41,319 --> 00:22:47,640
cousin or a relative? Right, No, can't, can't tear well,

491
00:22:47,759 --> 00:22:48,599
I understand.

492
00:22:48,640 --> 00:22:49,559
Speaker 1: Is that why you're in hell?

493
00:22:49,759 --> 00:22:50,680
Speaker 4: Oh?

494
00:22:50,759 --> 00:22:51,880
Speaker 1: Why are you in hell? No?

495
00:22:51,680 --> 00:22:54,400
Speaker 5: No, I'm in hell because I talked to animals. Chris,

496
00:22:54,440 --> 00:22:57,480
that's witchcraft. That was an instant check mark box.

497
00:22:57,519 --> 00:22:59,960
Speaker 1: God said, no, But did you actually talk to the

498
00:23:00,079 --> 00:23:03,839
animals or did you just get bitten by a rabbit wolf?

499
00:23:04,000 --> 00:23:04,279
Speaker 5: Hmm?

500
00:23:04,599 --> 00:23:07,240
Speaker 4: That's an interesting question. I believe.

501
00:23:07,319 --> 00:23:09,799
Speaker 5: Yes, I did talk to the animals.

502
00:23:09,440 --> 00:23:11,519
Speaker 1: After you got bit by the rabbit wolf.

503
00:23:11,480 --> 00:23:15,640
Speaker 4: During after in the box. It's all the same.

504
00:23:16,440 --> 00:23:20,079
Speaker 1: Yeah, okay, so you guys have heard.

505
00:23:19,920 --> 00:23:22,960
Speaker 5: All of my qualifications. I made some homes for you, Clayton.

506
00:23:23,440 --> 00:23:24,680
Speaker 4: I'm feeling good about this.

507
00:23:24,799 --> 00:23:26,519
Speaker 5: When when are we ready to start?

508
00:23:26,759 --> 00:23:26,960
Speaker 2: Oh?

509
00:23:27,480 --> 00:23:30,720
Speaker 1: Job, it's the job, yeah, my autobiography.

510
00:23:31,240 --> 00:23:34,519
Speaker 2: I need to consult with Chris really quick.

511
00:23:34,920 --> 00:23:36,880
Speaker 3: Do you mind stepping into the other room that door

512
00:23:36,960 --> 00:23:37,200
right now?

513
00:23:37,240 --> 00:23:39,240
Speaker 5: Of course, as long as I don't get locked in

514
00:23:39,400 --> 00:23:39,920
or anything.

515
00:23:40,160 --> 00:23:44,200
Speaker 2: All right, I'll be right back.

516
00:23:44,160 --> 00:23:48,480
Speaker 3: Okay, all right, yeah, Chris. I don't know if this

517
00:23:48,519 --> 00:23:49,279
guy's gonna cut it.

518
00:23:49,759 --> 00:23:52,519
Speaker 2: He's giving me like he's weird Doctor Seuss vibes. If

519
00:23:52,559 --> 00:23:56,200
Doctor Seuss was even weirder somehow. It's like Doctor Seuss

520
00:23:56,400 --> 00:23:57,240
but on acid.

521
00:23:57,440 --> 00:23:59,759
Speaker 3: Yeah, well, I mean that's that's just doctor SEUs. Okay.

522
00:23:59,759 --> 00:24:02,960
Speaker 1: Well, and it's like doctor Seuss but on a bad

523
00:24:03,039 --> 00:24:06,519
trip of ascids while having sex with his cousins. Yeah. Well, yeah,

524
00:24:06,759 --> 00:24:08,880
I don't know. I'm getting weird. I don't I don't

525
00:24:08,880 --> 00:24:11,279
feel like i'd want to trust him well at all,

526
00:24:11,440 --> 00:24:14,599
but certainly not in a room alone with me. Yeah.

527
00:24:14,680 --> 00:24:16,960
Speaker 2: Yeah, he talks a lot about murder, but he smiles

528
00:24:16,960 --> 00:24:17,480
when he does it.

529
00:24:17,720 --> 00:24:18,519
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's weird.

530
00:24:18,640 --> 00:24:22,119
Speaker 2: He's unsettling. I don't think he's fit to write my autobiography.

531
00:24:22,279 --> 00:24:23,960
So I'm gonna pass on this guy.

532
00:24:24,200 --> 00:24:28,240
Speaker 1: Okay, Well, are you gonna Are you gonna tell him?

533
00:24:28,240 --> 00:24:31,400
Because no, you tell him, you're my assistant, You tell him. No, dude,

534
00:24:31,559 --> 00:24:33,359
he's creepy enough on the other side of the wall.

535
00:24:33,359 --> 00:24:34,400
I don't want to talk to him again.

536
00:24:34,599 --> 00:24:36,440
Speaker 3: I know that he's creeping me out. You know.

537
00:24:36,640 --> 00:24:38,920
Speaker 1: Look, you're the one who invited him in. You know,

538
00:24:39,160 --> 00:24:41,079
like you got to do the right thing and at

539
00:24:41,160 --> 00:24:44,000
least let him know he didn't get the job. Okay,

540
00:24:44,039 --> 00:24:47,519
you can't just leave him hanging waiting forever, like you know.

541
00:24:47,480 --> 00:24:49,480
Speaker 3: Wait, you're onto something there, all right, all right, Chris,

542
00:24:49,519 --> 00:24:49,920
hear me out.

543
00:24:50,000 --> 00:24:50,279
Speaker 1: Uh huh.

544
00:24:50,279 --> 00:24:52,960
Speaker 2: They're condemning this building, right His building's had a ghas

545
00:24:53,079 --> 00:24:54,799
leak for years. I've never told you about it. But

546
00:24:55,039 --> 00:24:56,759
they're not gonna do anything with this building. They're just

547
00:24:56,759 --> 00:24:58,559
gonna leave it here. They're gonna break it up. So

548
00:24:58,640 --> 00:25:00,160
I mean, could just leave him in there.

549
00:25:00,160 --> 00:25:04,559
Speaker 1: Like lock him in there and have him buried alive again.

550
00:25:04,680 --> 00:25:07,640
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, I mean that's kind of poetic, right, he's

551
00:25:07,720 --> 00:25:09,279
an appreciator of the poems.

552
00:25:09,400 --> 00:25:12,720
Speaker 1: No, No, I'm actually okay with it this time. He's

553
00:25:12,440 --> 00:25:14,079
he's weird. He's a weird.

554
00:25:14,119 --> 00:25:16,599
Speaker 2: Yeah, honestly, we're probably doing a hell of favor. And

555
00:25:16,680 --> 00:25:18,519
also it's just like, I don't have that talk. It's

556
00:25:18,599 --> 00:25:20,920
it's so awkward. Yeah, it's really it's for the best

557
00:25:20,920 --> 00:25:22,559
for all of us, and at a ground that we

Edgar Allen Poe. Can you tell our audience what you do.

600
00:27:15,119 --> 00:27:18,079
You've got a really great podcast that we're all big

601
00:27:18,119 --> 00:27:18,480
fans of.

602
00:27:18,640 --> 00:27:22,359
Speaker 5: Yeah, I am the showrunner and creator for the SCP Archives,

603
00:27:22,720 --> 00:27:26,240
and that is a weekly anthology horror show podcast about

604
00:27:26,720 --> 00:27:32,039
a mysterious government organization known only as the Foundation, and

605
00:27:32,079 --> 00:27:36,240
their goal is simply to secure, contain, and protect. So

606
00:27:36,359 --> 00:27:40,599
each week we cover new anomaly and its containment protocols.

607
00:27:40,640 --> 00:27:44,000
In the SCP Archives, we begin with the shorten narration

608
00:27:44,119 --> 00:27:46,720
and go into found footage and lost logs.

609
00:27:46,880 --> 00:27:50,680
Speaker 1: Yeah, so, if you're looking for an immersive fictional podcast,

610
00:27:51,119 --> 00:27:55,279
great storytelling, you should absolutely check it out. And actually

611
00:27:55,559 --> 00:27:58,240
me and Blaine are going to be guest characters on

612
00:27:58,279 --> 00:28:00,839
an upcoming episode or it might actually already be out.

613
00:28:00,880 --> 00:28:01,359
Is that correct?

614
00:28:01,400 --> 00:28:01,599
Speaker 4: Heck?

615
00:28:01,680 --> 00:28:05,319
Speaker 2: Yeah, uh, this is such an inappropriate question. But if

616
00:28:05,359 --> 00:28:11,880
you had an arch nemesis, would his name be Atlantic Jedediah.

617
00:28:11,920 --> 00:28:13,559
Speaker 5: You know, I usually get the question of like, oh,

618
00:28:13,599 --> 00:28:15,920
if you had a brother, is their name like Atlantic?

619
00:28:16,599 --> 00:28:20,359
I've never gotten the Jebediah parts.

620
00:28:21,000 --> 00:28:27,640
Speaker 2: Just imagining the anti Pacific and like, yes, sorry, I'm

621
00:28:27,680 --> 00:28:30,960
gonna write make my own podcast about your you and

622
00:28:31,039 --> 00:28:32,400
your fight against.

623
00:28:32,119 --> 00:28:32,839
Speaker 4: Your your evil.

624
00:28:32,960 --> 00:28:35,799
Speaker 5: To me, if there's someone out there named Atlantic Jebediah,

625
00:28:35,839 --> 00:28:39,759
they are a thousand percent my enemy.

626
00:28:39,880 --> 00:28:42,200
Speaker 3: I don't even know each other. Oh man, awesome, well

627
00:28:42,200 --> 00:28:43,680
so so what else are you working on? And like

628
00:28:43,680 --> 00:28:45,599
where can people find you on social media and stuff?

629
00:28:45,680 --> 00:28:45,960
Speaker 4: Yeah?

630
00:28:46,000 --> 00:28:49,720
Speaker 5: On Twitter, I am at Pacific Obadiah Obadiah is ob

631
00:28:49,920 --> 00:28:53,839
a d I a h because people misspell that. Sometimes.

632
00:28:54,079 --> 00:28:57,000

00:28:57,039 --> 00:28:59,960
my main show, and I do that like three four

634
00:29:00,039 --> 00:29:02,640
stuff every year. But right now I'm actually working on

635
00:29:02,680 --> 00:29:05,519
Margaret's Garden, which we're a few episodes in at this point,

636
00:29:06,000 --> 00:29:09,319
and that is a new creepy show about a mysterious

637
00:29:09,359 --> 00:29:12,640
town that is empty and all of its residence disappeared

638
00:29:12,680 --> 00:29:15,799
one night. It's a little more in depth than you know,

639
00:29:15,839 --> 00:29:18,559
like a weekly anthology, but it's a long, ten episode,

640
00:29:18,559 --> 00:29:22,359
a continuous story through a strange and magical world.

641
00:29:22,640 --> 00:29:23,759
Speaker 1: Nice, it's d heck.

642
00:29:23,839 --> 00:29:26,680
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, this is the most logical fit for the

643
00:29:26,759 --> 00:29:29,400
guests in what character they're gonna play. Like when we

644
00:29:29,440 --> 00:29:30,880
were like looking through all the stuff that he didn't

645
00:29:30,880 --> 00:29:31,880
were like, oh.

00:29:31,839 --> 00:29:37,240
Speaker 1: Yeah, weird, weird, mysterious creepy stories.

00:29:37,440 --> 00:29:38,799
