Speaker 1: Oh medal Tsar, Hello, and welcome to the show.
Speaker 2: This is the Cult of Conspiracy and I'm the Cage
Speaker 2: to Night and Raven Lee, and today we are going
Speaker 2: to be diving into Antarctica. Oddly enough, Raven Lee and
Speaker 2: I was talking about doing this episode upwards of a
Speaker 2: week ago, and the more I've been just like scrolling
Speaker 2: the youtubes and scrolling the instas and all the shit,
Speaker 2: I've been seeing Antarctica coming up a lot lately, a
Speaker 2: lot now. Grants, I know the algorithm is always listening
Speaker 2: to us, so as soon as we had a conversation
Speaker 2: about it, the phone is just going to randomly show
Speaker 2: you more Antarctic things. But even from content creators that
Speaker 2: I actually do watch, a lot of them have been
Speaker 2: talking about Antarctica more heavily in the last couple of weeks.
Speaker 2: That's kind of a weird thing to me.
Speaker 3: I think it's because a lot of research is being
Speaker 3: shown now, a lot of new data. Antarctica is one
Speaker 3: of those things though, that just never goes away. It's
Speaker 3: just continuously being brought up because there's so much to
Speaker 3: the conversation, and even just in this episode, we're only
Speaker 3: touching on certain things and leaving out a lot, because
Speaker 3: it's just we would be here all day honestly talking
Speaker 3: about Antarctica and all the conspiracies surrounding it in different
Speaker 3: aspects of it.
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's absolutely accurate, and to be honest with you,
Speaker 2: on the cult conspiracy, we have talked about Antarctica more
Speaker 2: than a few times. I don't know if we've ever
Speaker 2: done this deep of a deep dive into it. We've
Speaker 2: talked about more specific things, right like the Nazi bas
Speaker 2: there potential portals based out of their certain scientific quote
Speaker 2: unquote discoveries that have been there. We've talked about the
Speaker 2: map of it in the perie Res map and all
Speaker 2: of that. In grants that we're going to be bringing
Speaker 2: up some of these things today for sure, but I
Speaker 2: think this is the first time we've ever done this
Speaker 2: level of a dive into Antarctica in totality, because even
Speaker 2: looking at it from the scientific narrative, there are so
Speaker 2: many unanswered questions.
Speaker 3: So much it's just the research is endless. I mean
Speaker 3: I think I have forty articles pulled up. You have
Speaker 3: probably about the same. There's just so much happening, and
Speaker 3: every year they're finding new discoveries.
Speaker 4: They're finding new things. They've been The.
Speaker 3: One Russian group drilled for ten years to get to
Speaker 3: this one specific lake, and then they didn't even get
Speaker 3: samples because of the way that the water blew up.
Speaker 3: So now they're trying to figure out another way to
Speaker 3: be able to get these samples. I mean, it was
Speaker 3: over a decade of drilling just to try to get
Speaker 3: to one location.
Speaker 2: And I mean there's even I got three articles pulled
Speaker 2: up that we're going to talk about today, and you'll
Speaker 2: see how the narrative has shifted from twenty eighteen to now.
Speaker 2: Within those three articles, like, for instance, just to give
Speaker 2: a little snapshot here, the ice underneath Antarctica is melting,
Speaker 2: and scientists still have disagreements as to why that is.
Speaker 2: I like, on the onset, I'm thinking, Okay, there's probably
Speaker 2: a geothermal you know, volcano tube or something close to
Speaker 2: this underneath the Antarctica, except for the fact that there's
Speaker 2: a group of scientists saying that none of those exists.
Speaker 2: There's no fault lines here, there's no volcanoes here, there's
Speaker 2: no reason why Antarctica should be heating up from the
Speaker 2: bottom to the top. Then you have other scientists that
Speaker 2: are saying, well, it might be some sort of a
Speaker 2: chemical thermo reaction. But up until recently, they thought that
Speaker 2: Antarctica was a giant block of ice. There was land
Speaker 2: underneath it, way way, way deep, but they didn't know
Speaker 2: to what level it. It's crazy, and you're gonna watch
Speaker 2: how that narrative and what the quote unquote experts have
Speaker 2: said shifting narratives over the past seven years, and how
Speaker 2: drastically different they are cut that into all of the
Speaker 2: other conversations about the blood, the blood spring.
Speaker 3: The blood fountain, the blood fountains, yeah, the waterfall excuse me, Yeah.
Speaker 2: And then the life that is living in one of
Speaker 2: these lakes. We only have one lake that we can
Speaker 2: get to in an Artica, there's like forty or one
Speaker 2: hundred and forty I forget what the number is. It's
Speaker 2: something crazy.
Speaker 3: Fourdred there's four hundred caverns that technically have some type
Speaker 3: of water system that they've found, Yeah.
Speaker 2: But we can only access one.
Speaker 3: Yeah, there's quite a few that they are currently trying
Speaker 3: to get to. They've accessed the they've taken samples from
Speaker 3: one of them and was able to see so much
Speaker 3: life down there, and it's pretty much like a Mars
Speaker 3: to be honest with you, it's an entirely different ecosystem
Speaker 3: and world.
Speaker 4: And how these little tiny you know.
Speaker 3: I guess parasites are micro microbes and you know, all
Speaker 3: these things they survived.
Speaker 4: It's insane. So there's a lot to be said.
Speaker 3: And that's not even touching on you know, are the
Speaker 3: nephilin there, the all the different types of conspiracies that
Speaker 3: surround in Arctica. This is just really it's talking scientific
Speaker 3: stuff and the conspiracies in the scientific community of like
Speaker 3: what is this, Nope, that changed, this is different, and
Speaker 3: there's a vast majority of it that hasn't even been accessed,
Speaker 3: let alone studied, because it takes so much to even
Speaker 3: get there set up, try to study it, and there's
Speaker 3: it's just never ending. It feels like it's a vast,
Speaker 3: you know, network of random things down there.
Speaker 2: So absolutely, and of course they're going to be bringing
Speaker 2: up the Antarctic Peace Treaty and the Madrid Protocol, which
Speaker 2: everybody thinks that nobody can access Antarctica right now because
Speaker 2: of this peace treaty, which is a true statement, But
Speaker 2: does anybody realize that that runs out in twenty forty eight,
Speaker 2: and that in twenty forty eight, all of these countries
Speaker 2: are going to start drilling the shit out of Antarctica
Speaker 2: for its two hundred million or billion barrels of oil
Speaker 2: that they found there, which is more than all of Arabia.
Speaker 3: That's insane, because you know, we haven't learned not to
Speaker 3: screw up the world anymore.
Speaker 2: But I mean, they they blew up three nukes in
Speaker 2: Antarctica just to see what would happen, which we're going
Speaker 2: to be talking about that today. Took good cult members
Speaker 2: the US be just doing shit sometimes just for the
Speaker 2: hell of it.
Speaker 3: To be fair, I didn't go in that that way.
Speaker 3: I was over here researching all the science stuff of it.
Speaker 2: Nukes are science, although some people believe that nukes are
Speaker 2: not real. Some people also believe that Antarctica is an
Speaker 2: ice wall, which we're gonna be talking about that as well.
Speaker 2: There was that group of flat earthers that made the
Speaker 2: way to Antarctica. We're going to talk about that very briefly.
Speaker 2: That's not the main concern of today's episode, right.
Speaker 3: Well, for anybody that actually wants to read about Antarctica,
Speaker 3: Live Science has tons of you'll hear me constantly bring
Speaker 3: up this a specific group because They have so much information,
Speaker 3: and I actually like the way that they present most
Speaker 3: of it non bias.
Speaker 2: Is it live science or live science? It's me and
Speaker 2: Jonathan never knew the answer to that. I feel like
Speaker 2: it's live science.
Speaker 3: It's live it's life science because they cover everything. Now
Speaker 3: I'm question the whole thing. No, it's live science.
Speaker 4: I know it is.
Speaker 2: That's you see, that's how you could tell we had
Speaker 2: me and him at very different brain functions because I
Speaker 2: read it as live science and he's like, you mean
Speaker 2: live science, and I'm like wait what wait, hold on,
Speaker 2: And that was a big debate between me and I.
Speaker 2: So again that's that left brain right brain things.
Speaker 3: So I think it's live science honestly. But now now
Speaker 3: now I'm questioning them my whole life. Okay, great, Anyways,
Speaker 3: they have a ton of articles that break down so
Speaker 3: many aspects of Antarctica in different ways, and you could
Speaker 3: just keep reading, like they just did this map that's
Speaker 3: called bed Map three. They have two other maps versions
Speaker 3: before then, and they took fifty two million I guess
Speaker 3: information catalogs and.
Speaker 4: All this stuff over four decades to create this map.
Speaker 3: And now they're like, oh, so in Arctica is a
Speaker 3: lotier than we thought, and we kind of have a problem.
Speaker 4: She a thicklem, Yeah, she's a thick them.
Speaker 3: And they have the problem though, because the ice is
Speaker 3: actually the way that it is in the water, it's
Speaker 3: causing the warm salt water to come up and it's eroding.
Speaker 3: It's more in a precarious state than they ever realized,
Speaker 3: and it's causing more erosion and faster than they realized.
Speaker 3: So that's a whole thing because now they're going to
Speaker 3: start being able to access you know, old vegetation and
Speaker 3: everything that's underneath because spoiler alert to everyone, it used
Speaker 3: to be a lush, green forest underneath, at least in
Speaker 3: some areas.
Speaker 2: It did indeed, And there's also this narrative that's saying
Speaker 2: that it's because of global warming that Antarctica is melting,
Speaker 2: and while there may be at least some sort of
Speaker 2: a kernel of truth to that, it's melting from the
Speaker 2: bottom up, it's not melting from the top side like
Speaker 2: you would expect from some sort of global warming situation
Speaker 2: where it was the ocean water that was causing most
Speaker 2: of the melting. Although that is happening right the salt
Speaker 2: water is leaching onto the ice sheet itself, and that
Speaker 2: is happening deer. There's like forty five massive caverns that
Speaker 2: have formed under the ice sheet. And these caverns are
Speaker 2: large enough to hold entire cities, and they almost seem
Speaker 2: as if they were I'm gonna say this, but just
Speaker 2: bear with me here. It seems like they were constructed
Speaker 2: in a very specific pattern. Now one to our I
Speaker 2: was gonna to our knowledge, no living creature is the
Speaker 2: one that formed these caverns. We think that this form
Speaker 2: because of these unexplainable hot pockets underneath. However, the pattern
Speaker 2: and uh, the line of these caverns, it looks very
Speaker 2: very specific. I'll say it like that, So who fucking know.
Speaker 3: I definitely do want to get do another episode where
Speaker 3: we dive into the myths and the lure of Antarctica,
Speaker 3: because I did actually find some really interesting articles about
Speaker 3: the Nephilon being there and giants and different things like that.
Speaker 3: So but that is not where we're We're touching more
Speaker 3: on the like the actual science today of everything. But
Speaker 3: I do want to do another episode where we dive
Speaker 3: deep into the mists of Arctica. Indeed, because I do
Speaker 3: believe Nephlin or there really do one hundred percent believe
Speaker 3: that they're there.
Speaker 2: When you say nephelm, and I have to ask this
Speaker 2: ravenly because you out loud are not a Christian. So
Speaker 2: when you say nephilim that is specifically an Abrahamic religion
Speaker 2: type of thing. Do you mean giants or do you
Speaker 2: in fact mean half demon half human spawns from the
Speaker 2: Old Testament?
Speaker 4: I mean the spawns. Really, I do actually believe that
Speaker 4: they're there.
Speaker 2: Even a non Christian believes in the Nephilum, y'all. I'm
Speaker 2: just saying the evidence is real.
Speaker 3: I do believe that I think that they're there, at
Speaker 3: least something along akin to that, whatever it might be,
Speaker 3: I do believe that they are there.
Speaker 2: I mean, how many movies have we seen where there's
Speaker 2: some sort.
Speaker 4: Of there's something there there.
Speaker 3: I believe that there's at least some type of race
Speaker 3: of other I guess whatever you want to say it is.
Speaker 3: I do believe that there is something there, and that
Speaker 3: there's a lot more too. But I also do think
Speaker 3: that there's potential to be hollow earth.
Speaker 2: So and we're gonna talk about that today as you enjoy.
Speaker 4: The theory of hollow earth.
Speaker 3: I think it's fascinating I think it's interesting to think
Speaker 3: about what else could be down there, considering there's so
Speaker 3: many you know, you heard about Crater Lake in Oregon.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I just found out about.
Speaker 3: Yeah, so I don't actually know that if this is
Speaker 3: a truth or not. But we did read two articles
Speaker 3: saying that they have discovered Megladon's potentially in Crater Lake
Speaker 3: in Oregon.
Speaker 4: Now, for those of you who don't know, creatter Lak
Speaker 4: is very very very deep.
Speaker 2: But it fresh water.
Speaker 3: Yeah, so I don't Look, I don't know, Okay, But
Speaker 3: I'm just saying there's a lot of places that we
Speaker 3: haven't gone, you know, the Mariana Trench that we haven't
Speaker 3: gone all the way down in. You know, there's a
Speaker 3: lot of places that are unexplored that I think that
Speaker 3: potentially could be holding I don't know, gateways, maybe it's
Speaker 3: to the maybe we have the stacked dimensions.
Speaker 2: Look, I can't even say any kind of negativity towards this,
Speaker 2: because like you're just saying that you believe that the
Speaker 2: Nephilum or some sort of an ancient giant race, if
Speaker 2: something is in Antarctica. I am personally of the belief
Speaker 2: that the Leviathan is real and lives in Marianna's trench. Oh,
Speaker 2: that's a real.
Speaker 4: Did you hear me about?
Speaker 3: They are thinking that, they are thinking that it's awakening.
Speaker 3: I there has had several Uh, they've had several things
Speaker 3: come out about that.
Speaker 4: Actually in the last few weeks. I've been reading about.
Speaker 2: It, you know. And this is not I'm not trying
Speaker 2: to take a Christian narrative here. I'm not trying to
Speaker 2: get on a soapbox you are. Nope, Nope, see, I'm
Speaker 2: not gonna do that. Jacob's not doing that. What I
Speaker 2: am saying is that I am firmly on the belief
Speaker 2: that we are in the end times, and and that's
Speaker 2: there's so so much evidence to suggest this. So when
Speaker 2: they're saying that the Leviathan might be waking up, I'm
Speaker 2: just like, yep, as according to plan.
Speaker 4: It's gonna be a wild seven years, y'all.
Speaker 2: Oh, it's it's gonna be destruction. That bitch is gonna
Speaker 2: wake up and fuck everyone up. It's gonna beautiful, it's
Speaker 2: gonna be The Krack is real. Uh. I do believe
Speaker 2: there's a Colonel of the Truth to the Kraken. Now
Speaker 2: maybe not the Kraken.
Speaker 3: Uh.
Speaker 2: That we've seen in like like Pirates of the Caribbean,
Speaker 2: but something extremely close to that. I do believe, that's
Speaker 2: what I'm saying. So that there if hypothetically make crazy
Speaker 2: side tangent, but it's worth the tage. Okay, here's the
Speaker 2: deal here. We got the story of Moby Dick. You
Speaker 2: know that's actually based off of a real whale that
Speaker 2: really attacked a shipping vessel as they were trying to
Speaker 2: hunt it and killed almost everyone.
Speaker 3: Yes, okay, well, I mean it does not far fetch though,
Speaker 3: considering that orcas have taken upon themselves to fuck up
Speaker 3: yachts and everything else the last few years.
Speaker 2: So orcas have organized themselves to do this, but historically speaking,
Speaker 2: blue whales never did that. So for this one whale
Speaker 2: to get stabbed enough them spears to finally be like,
Speaker 2: you know what, fuck your ship, white boy, and like
Speaker 2: kill all of them, and well except for like eight
Speaker 2: I think survived it. So that was one of those
Speaker 2: seamen's tales, these tall fishing stories that got made into
Speaker 2: a book, got made into movies and it's a part
Speaker 2: of the legend and lore, except that that was a
Speaker 2: real story that took place. Some dramatizations and creative liberties
Speaker 2: were taken, but the story was real. I believe the
Speaker 2: kraken is the same way the giant squid that we've
Speaker 2: seen these deep sea submarines take pictures.
Speaker 3: Up ten thousand feet under the sea. I don't know
Speaker 3: if you've ever seen that Sean Connery movie. Yeah, back
Speaker 3: in the day. I'll age myself a little bit.
Speaker 2: No, I love Sean Connery except for his ability to
Speaker 2: shmack women. I don't like that. But as an actor,
Speaker 2: he's an og that's fair.
Speaker 3: But but I do think that there's a lot of
Speaker 3: at least a kernel of truth to a lot of
Speaker 3: different myths and legends. I will say I've always been
Speaker 3: a firm bleeder.
Speaker 2: Wow, firm.
Speaker 3: It's early in the morning, y'all. So if you're wondering
Speaker 3: what time where she? It is very early and my
Speaker 3: words are not wording for me A firm believer.
Speaker 2: Wow, fern bleeder.
Speaker 3: Now you know what I'm done speaking for today? Everyone,
Speaker 3: Thank you so much. No, No, I appreciate you.
Speaker 2: I hear you. I'm I'm also a believer that the
Speaker 2: giant squid is a thing. Now, how giant are we talking?
Speaker 2: I mean, I don't know how much of the lord.
Speaker 3: They found was like a few hundred feet. Yes, I
Speaker 3: think it's a few hundred feet, but.
Speaker 2: I also don't know if that would be enough to
Speaker 2: rip apart a sail ship from back in the day, or.
Speaker 3: Is it you're talking to say it's just one hundred
Speaker 3: feet hypothetically, think about how big the suckers are, and
Speaker 3: those suckers once they like they are locked on, they're
Speaker 3: not coming off unless it's ripping it apart.
Speaker 4: So I could see it.
Speaker 3: I mean, maybe they had a vengeful grudge against some
Speaker 3: some sailors and was like, you know what, fuck you.
Speaker 2: It's possible. I'm also of the belief as far as
Speaker 2: the kraken is concerned, that possibly some fishermen from way back,
Speaker 2: when pulled up one of these giant squids, saw this
Speaker 2: massive creature and was like, bro, is this the thing
Speaker 2: that's been fucking up the ships out in this area
Speaker 2: for one hundred years and then maybe pretty much just
Speaker 2: got made into a thing. So it's and it's also
Speaker 2: possible that that's a true statement. It's also possible that
Speaker 2: that's like one of those fishermen tails that got and
Speaker 2: I got made into the lore and legend. I don't know.
Speaker 4: I think like mermaids, sirens, they hold the colonel to
Speaker 4: truth if not truthful.
Speaker 2: I believe I believe in mermaids. Oh, I don't really
Speaker 2: believe in sirens. I think we just call them women
Speaker 2: in general that be lauren men to their death because
Speaker 2: these men are just they're they're so weak minded.
Speaker 4: I mean, if you just lead with your dick, yeah
Speaker 4: it's gonna happen.
Speaker 2: Name me a sailor that's not leading with his dick.
Speaker 4: I'm just saying, as the populous.
Speaker 2: Oh oh yeah, totally, totally. Yeah.
Speaker 3: Really, you're going to talk about how many wars have
Speaker 3: been waved over some women.
Speaker 2: A good bit, and once again, was it the men
Speaker 2: thinking with their dick the ways that won't? Was that
Speaker 2: that woman pushing pussy power and making millions of men
Speaker 2: die for her fucking grudge? Oh okay, women's scorn ship.
Speaker 3: If a woman's scorn, Yeah, they have history proof that
Speaker 3: women will go out of their way to funck shit
Speaker 3: up on their own, so they don't need the men
Speaker 3: to come after that.
Speaker 4: I'll say the men that are.
Speaker 2: Like ma, no, I'll say that women women, as far
Speaker 2: as warfare is concerned, they haven't made history often. But boy,
Speaker 2: when they fucking do, they're beautiful. You you hear about
Speaker 2: it for the next three thousand years. That that's that's
Speaker 2: all I'm saying.
Speaker 3: Okay, like we've gone so oft off from Antarctica.
Speaker 2: You may not know about many Celtic kings, but Joe
Speaker 2: ass heard about Budka, you know what I mean.
Speaker 4: She is just she is awe inspiring. Yeah, good for her.
Speaker 2: You may not know of many Russian monarchs, but you've
Speaker 2: heard of Saint Olga who burned down an entire town
Speaker 2: because they killed her husband and she felt some type
Speaker 2: of way about it.
Speaker 4: Like you, to be fair, I would totally be one
Speaker 4: of these people. Yeah, out of my way.
Speaker 3: Just what weird?
Speaker 4: But you touch my kids?
Speaker 2: That's it, man, that's really what's that photo off?
Speaker 3: I'm making history because like we were gonna be tortuing
Speaker 3: some places.
Speaker 2: Yeah. Anyway, back onto the Antarctica conversation. We're gonna be
Speaker 2: talking about a lot of these things. We're gonna be
Speaker 2: talking about many, many different areas about this. Also a
Speaker 2: couple of things I was talking about, the hollow Earth possibility.
Speaker 2: We're gonna be talking about it briefly.
Speaker 3: Very briefly, We're not going deep into this because I
Speaker 3: do want to talk one day about it, but.
Speaker 2: We are gonna be talking about the whole because before
Speaker 2: I started doing my research into Antarctica, I didn't know
Speaker 2: there was a massive hole, yes that they just up
Speaker 2: until recently allegedly didn't know exactly how I got there
Speaker 2: or what's at the bottom of it. And I'm like,
Speaker 2: I'm sorry, wait, you mean to tell me there's an
Speaker 2: actual giant hole, a bottomless pit in Antarctica that U
Speaker 2: assholes have known about for forever. And we're just like not.
Speaker 3: Talking that there's a lot of shit down there. I
Speaker 3: mean to be fair, though, science seems to take.
Speaker 4: A long time.
Speaker 3: Yeah, when it comes to Antarctica and how long it
Speaker 3: takes and them drilling the different holes in the ground
Speaker 3: for the ice and what they're finding, the layers of
Speaker 3: ice and the new bacteria and stuff, and it's like,
Speaker 3: don't touch it, just don't touch it. Don't bring that
Speaker 3: stuff up.
Speaker 2: And then I also didn't know that Antarctica has been
Speaker 2: producing radio pulses.
Speaker 4: I didn't know that until you told me the continent
Speaker 4: minutes ago.
Speaker 2: It's sounded like there's some secret underground science base that's living,
Speaker 2: it's sending up these radio signals. Although there may be
Speaker 2: there may be under the ice population. Apparently the continent
Speaker 2: itself is sending out radio signals.
Speaker 4: And we're just not gonna question it.
Speaker 2: And we didn't even know about it until twenty sixteen.
Speaker 2: It's like, I'm sorry, what so anyway.
Speaker 4: It's almost a decade when we haven't really talked about it.
Speaker 2: No, No, they stopped reading them in twenty eighteen. They
Speaker 2: shut down the program. They're like, ooh, so that's the
Speaker 2: thing that's happen, and we're just gonna change the turn
Speaker 2: on the radio.
Speaker 3: They're still sending out that message to deep space, they
Speaker 3: sure are. They're still sending it out, but we're not
Speaker 3: gonna talk about the radio frequency that's literally below us.
Speaker 4: Yeah, yep.
Speaker 2: Is it possible that that radio signal from Antarctica has
Speaker 2: also been sending that out to deep space for the
Speaker 2: last eon.
Speaker 4: I'm telling you there's an entire population below us. I
Speaker 4: believe it.
Speaker 2: Good cult members. We're gonna talk about all of it
Speaker 2: on this episode, And while we go ahead and share
Speaker 2: the screen, we do want to say, if you would
Speaker 2: like to join us and seeing what we are talking about,
Speaker 2: rather than just hearing about it. The what you need
Speaker 2: to do is go to the link in the description
Speaker 2: below to Patreon dot com slash Cult to Conspiracy Podcast.
Speaker 2: When you get there, there are a few tiers for entry.
Speaker 2: If you go to that five dollar tier every month,
Speaker 2: then you will get all of these episodes a couple
Speaker 2: of days in advance. You will get the video footage
Speaker 2: of it, so you can see what we're talking about
Speaker 2: rather than just hear about it. But let's be honest,
Speaker 2: the main reason why people usually go to Patreon dot
Speaker 2: com is because it is completely fish. That's right. Listen.
Speaker 2: We hate ads, We hate commercials, hate them so much,
Speaker 2: and we understand that you do too, because you're a
Speaker 2: normal human being with a working brain. So if you
Speaker 2: would like to kick those ads out of the conversation,
Speaker 2: get the days the shows a couple of days in advance,
Speaker 2: and see all the video footage. Patroon dot com slash
Speaker 2: cult the Conspiracy Podcast is the only place to see that. However,
Speaker 2: there is another tier for that third eye all the
Speaker 2: way open and if you would like to join us
Speaker 2: every Tuesday night for our nine pm Central Time live
Speaker 2: get together every Tuesday night, go to that third eye
Speaker 2: all the way open tier and join in on the conversation.
Speaker 2: It's a good time.
Speaker 4: It's gonna see good old Jonathan.
Speaker 2: Jonathan is still gonna be It's.
Speaker 4: Gonna be there.
Speaker 3: He will come and see come and hang out with us,
Speaker 3: and come chat with us. Let's talk about some hollow earth.
Speaker 2: Let's talk about some hollow earth. Let's get into it here.
Speaker 2: So we're gonna start off with some of the basic things.
Speaker 2: Maybe some of you have heard of them, some maybe
Speaker 2: you haven't. But here is from Wayfairer Travel Wait, fairword
Speaker 2: Travel okay dot com. Fourteen Greatest Mysteries of Antarctica. Okay,
Speaker 2: just let's just read over the basics here. Okay. So
Speaker 2: for centuries, Antarctica has captured our imaginations, from the historic
Speaker 2: first explorers of the eighteen hundreds to the bold scientists
Speaker 2: of today, we continue to be captivated by the wonder's
Speaker 2: hail within Antarctica's icy plains. As the world's last unexplored wilderness,
Speaker 2: Antarctica is shrouded in mystery and as a land of extremes.
Speaker 2: It's also great at keeping its secrets. The harsh conditions,
Speaker 2: freezing temperatures, and barren landscapes make Antarctica inhospitable to humans.
Speaker 2: The frozen continent is about one and a half times
Speaker 2: the size of the United States, and ninety nine percent
Speaker 2: is covered in ice, making up to ninety percent of
Speaker 2: all ice on Earth, which is pretty insane to think
Speaker 2: about out loud. Despite this, scientists have forged on discovering
Speaker 2: blood red waterfalls, ancient fossils, peculiar natural phenomenon, and incredible creatures.
Speaker 2: They've even managed to discover a world beneath the ice,
Speaker 2: from salty underground lakes to huge mountain ranges hidden below.
Speaker 2: So we've rounded up the fourteen most fascinating mysteries held
Speaker 2: within the Great White Continent. So let's just get into
Speaker 2: it here. Also, I did want to mention this, and
Speaker 2: I think we're going to bring it up later. The
Speaker 2: golden age of exploration in Antarctica was a wild, wild time.
Speaker 2: And you're seeing these guys that were able to live
Speaker 2: on the continent for like nine months at a time
Speaker 2: in the early nineteen hundreds, and they didn't have the
Speaker 2: same type of like thermal gear that we do. It's
Speaker 2: insane to think about we have like fencilate.
Speaker 3: Now, Oh, it's it. They were freezing. I was just
Speaker 3: watching a video of on TikTok saying my daily life
Speaker 3: in our Antarctica.
Speaker 2: Wow.
Speaker 3: And they were still like a cold out here, and
Speaker 3: you saw the wind blowing their tents so hard and
Speaker 3: they're bundled up underneath everything and just thinking about what
Speaker 3: we have versus back then.
Speaker 4: They probably were raising their asses off.
Speaker 2: But that was the thing. It was like, understood, if
Speaker 2: you're going on this expedition, you have a real high
Speaker 2: likelihood of dying, Like no one's coming to get you.
Speaker 2: You're using a yeah, in some cases a wooden boat
Speaker 2: to get there, like you're just you're on your own.
Speaker 2: Although shout out to Tom Crean who took arguably the
Speaker 2: most badass sled ride of his life.
Speaker 4: So is that the one that rescued his body?
Speaker 2: So, oh yeah, I'm not going to spend too much
Speaker 2: time on it. Jacked History on YouTube did a very
Speaker 2: good deep dive into Tom Crean, and believe it or not,
Speaker 2: he was using some of the maps that Captain Cook
Speaker 2: created when they circumnavigated Antarcticle. We'll get to him in
Speaker 2: a bit. Yes, flat earthers, it's it's not that way, but.
Speaker 3: You're gonna go out of your way this whole freaking episode.
Speaker 2: No, but on this one specifically, yes, because that's another
Speaker 2: thing they keep talking about. The Captain Cook maps prove
Speaker 2: that the Earth is flat because of the giant ice wall,
Speaker 2: And it's like, if you look at the captain's log
Speaker 2: from Captain Cook and you look at the amount of
Speaker 2: provision that they took, just the way that you know
Speaker 2: circumference works, it takes you longer to go around the
Speaker 2: outside rim of that dinner plate than it would be
Speaker 2: to go around the continent of Antarctica. They would have
Speaker 2: ran out of food like a third of the way
Speaker 2: around if what they're saying about Captain Cook's maps are
Speaker 2: real for the flat earthers. But beside the point, Cavin
Speaker 2: Cook actually did a really good job of cartographying, cartographing, yeah,
Speaker 2: making a map of Antarctica's coastline and a couple of
Speaker 2: miles inland as well. Tom Crean was able to use
Speaker 2: those maps to get him and his boys out of danger,
Speaker 2: So it's actually pretty incredible that this guy was able
Speaker 2: to make it that accurate.
Speaker 3: But in his map, they actually there's a lot of
Speaker 3: talk about his map and how it potentially shows that
Speaker 3: there is a difference in the ice.
Speaker 4: Wall quote unquote quote.
Speaker 3: And difference in the ridges and stuff like that, how
Speaker 3: it would be, how it would have been forming kind
Speaker 3: of like Pangaea. Yeah, how that you can see how
Speaker 3: it was originally a part of one continent.
Speaker 2: That's incredible and so yeah, so Tom Crean basically he
Speaker 2: and his two buddies that were stranded had to walk
Speaker 2: a distance of the state of Texas right in Antarctica
Speaker 2: in the snow, and like how it's treacherous and you
Speaker 2: could fall through the ice at certain spots or whatever.
Speaker 2: And then they had to climb a ten thousand foot
Speaker 2: sheer ice wall, like the fucking Wilding's trying to climb
Speaker 2: the fucking the wall to get to wester Ros.
Speaker 3: I don't know if this is his buddy or his lover,
Speaker 3: because like that's a lot to go through for a buddy.
Speaker 4: Well, so to be weird, I probably would with my friends.
Speaker 2: But one of them had snow blindness and had also
Speaker 2: gotten frostbite so bad he couldn't walk, so he and
Speaker 2: his other home. He had to make a sled and
Speaker 2: pull this dude this distance. Then they had to climb
Speaker 2: up ten thousand feet and then when they got to
Speaker 2: the top of it, they realized, like, all right, so
Speaker 2: either a we go sideways and go down the slope
Speaker 2: and it'll take us like three times as long, or
Speaker 2: we take the most epic sled ride that any human
Speaker 2: being has ever taken. Two thousand feet sled ride, Oh
Speaker 2: my god, with no way of steering and no way
Speaker 2: of slowing down, just fucking toboggan and your ass off
Speaker 2: all the way to the bottom.
Speaker 3: For those that have never actually like sledded down a
Speaker 3: mountain or taken a tube down a mountain, you get
Speaker 3: some speed.
Speaker 4: Oh yeah, no, there was zoom them insane speed.
Speaker 2: On the upside. There was no trees for them to hit,
Speaker 2: but there were some ridiculous snow drifts that they were
Speaker 2: just like, Okay, I guess there's gonna lean and hope
Speaker 2: for the best here, and believe it or not, all
Speaker 2: the men survived and did not get injured from it.
Speaker 4: I'm not saying that they don't make men like this anymore,
Speaker 4: but what I will.
Speaker 2: Says it's also pretty obvious why women live longer than men.
Speaker 2: I'm just gonna throw that out because women would look
Speaker 2: at that and be like, there's no way men are
Speaker 2: like we have to gents, we're gonna die. It's it's
Speaker 2: a whole thing, you know. And then Tom Crean gave.
Speaker 3: If somebody was like, somebody told me, like, you can't
Speaker 3: do it, bet.
Speaker 2: Yeah. Tom is also insane because he got home to England.
Speaker 2: He won all these awards from the King himself for
Speaker 2: his expeditionary work, gets home to Ireland, never tells a soul,
Speaker 2: never brings it up, never brings up why their's statues
Speaker 2: erected to him in certain places of the world. He
Speaker 2: goes home and opens a pub and calls it the
Speaker 2: South Pole. Ind I love it. And only after his
Speaker 2: death did somebody finally open up his trunk of treasures
Speaker 2: and be like, wait, this guy was an international hero.
Speaker 2: Old Tom, Like, yeah, good old Tom. Old Tom did
Speaker 2: gangster shit in Antarctica more times than you you.
Speaker 4: Know anyway, So that's crazy.
Speaker 2: So let's get into it here as far as the
Speaker 2: random crazy things about in Arctica, so let's talk about
Speaker 2: some underground lakes. It's difficult to imagine anything beneath the
Speaker 2: thick layers of ice in Antarctica, yet scientists have discovered
Speaker 2: a number of underground lakes. First uncovered in nineteen seventy
Speaker 2: With radars, they are estimated to be around four hundred
Speaker 2: lakes sitting under three kilometers of ice. Yeah, I misspoke earlier.
Speaker 3: I was. I was sweating it out for a second hour.
Speaker 3: I was like, God, I hope it didn't misspoke.
Speaker 2: No, no, because I was thinking, like, there's not forty
Speaker 2: I couldn't remember what the forty number was it that
Speaker 2: was the caverns or the underwater lakes.
Speaker 4: So I was worried cold.
Speaker 3: I was like, God, I hope I'm not an asshole
Speaker 3: and just randomly said some shit.
Speaker 2: With all of the information we've compiled on this episode,
Speaker 2: we're gonna fuck things up a little bit. That's why
Speaker 2: we got the articles that we don't misspeak. You see
Speaker 2: that we actually were willing to admit when we're a
Speaker 2: little fucked up anyway, the regions, uh yeah, three kilometers
Speaker 2: of ice in the regions that were explored. Scientists believe
Speaker 2: the lakes were formed after the separation of Antarctica from
Speaker 2: Godwana Land. Gonda wan Land, Gondwana land, Okay, the ancient
Speaker 2: super continent. Is that what they're calling Pangaea gonda wan Land.
Speaker 2: I've actually what Gulla Gulla island.
Speaker 4: I never heard, and I'm gonna sit here and look
Speaker 4: it up.
Speaker 2: That might be like the section of Pangaea where it
Speaker 2: broke off from.
Speaker 3: I'm actually gonna look it up, because Pangaea is I
Speaker 3: truly infirmly believe in Pangaea.
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, it's that's I was on the belief that
Speaker 2: was proven science. But then you hear so many people
Speaker 2: like that's not true because people a lot.
Speaker 3: Of people don't actually believe in it. They want to
Speaker 3: argue that it's not a real thing. That's insane, which
Speaker 3: is crazy to me.
Speaker 2: Honestly, if you're still shifting, we can track them right
Speaker 2: now and if you backtrack that it's not even a
Speaker 2: disputable fact that Pangaea at one time existed.
Speaker 4: So sure, it's an ancient super continent.
Speaker 3: Actually, this is from Britannica incorporated present days South America, Africa, Arabia, Madagascar, India, Australia,
Speaker 3: and Antarctica. It was fully assembled by late pre cambro.
Speaker 2: Oh man, that word pre Cambrian.
Speaker 4: Thank you time six hundred million years ago.
Speaker 2: So okay, So pant was the original and then when
Speaker 2: it split off in a couple of big chunks, one
Speaker 2: of those giant chunks was gone to Wantland.
Speaker 4: Yes, that's what it looks like.
Speaker 3: So there's quite a few articles on it, so people
Speaker 3: can actually look it up and see, I never and
Speaker 3: home my time have heard about this, and now I
Speaker 3: feel like an epic failure, not mine, being an environmental
Speaker 3: having environmental science background, I feel like.
Speaker 2: I've heard of it, but I'd be lying if I
Speaker 2: told you before we read this, if I knew what
Speaker 2: it was. It's one of those things where it sounds
Speaker 2: very similar to so many other so and so lands
Speaker 2: you've heard of before. It's like, sure, that sounds like
Speaker 2: a place, Yeah, some rain mass shit. Yeah.
Speaker 4: It's the names that they come up with. It's like,
Speaker 4: why probably.
Speaker 2: Because the one that wrote it down was named Gondwana.
Speaker 3: They could just make up an easy name like Land,
Speaker 3: Bob bob Land, bob Land obviously the easy shit.
Speaker 2: Man, I love it. Caesar Land, Caesar Land. No, see
Speaker 2: they did that. That's why there's At one point there
Speaker 2: was a dude named Alexander, the kind of Okay, you
Speaker 2: probably heard of him, and that's why there's like eighteen
Speaker 2: Alexandria's all over the Mediterranean Sea because Homeboy was just like, ah, yes,
Speaker 2: this land is now mine. It's like, bro, you already
Speaker 2: named seven other cities after yourself and now it's a bitch.
Speaker 4: But anyway, typical men.
Speaker 5: Oh all right, all right, fair, I can't refuse. It
Speaker 5: was like, let's wait, whatever. Any lake lake Vostok Vostik.
Speaker 5: I don't know if I'm pronouncing it right. I speak
Speaker 5: American English. Discovered in the nineteen nineties by Russian scientists.
Speaker 5: Oh then, obviously it's fall stock in, the largest subglacial
Speaker 5: lake in Antarctica. It's also the third largest lake by
Speaker 5: volume in the world, lying three point five kilometers below
Speaker 5: the ice. Scientists have since drilled deep holes into the
Speaker 5: ice to extract a sample of the lake water, and
Speaker 5: one sample showed the water to be around negative three
Speaker 5: degrees celsius, which sucks, despite being covered by ice over
Speaker 5: twenty million years ago.
Speaker 4: Oh so they actually got a sample of it.
Speaker 2: Okay, cool, There's there was another lake that we were
Speaker 2: talking about where they were trying to drill down to
Speaker 2: it and couldn't get samples of it yet. This one
Speaker 2: they have gotten.
Speaker 3: Sad, there is quite a few lakes that they've been
Speaker 3: working on different different groups.
Speaker 2: So yeah, and we're going to talk about this lake
Speaker 2: a couple of times throughout this episode because the life
Speaker 2: forms that they've found inside of this lake, they're operating
Speaker 2: in ways that have only been discovered in a few
Speaker 2: other sections on Earth, like these volcanic tubes under the ocean,
Speaker 2: where no life should be able to live, but they
Speaker 2: keep finding these microbes that are existing from no sunlight,
Speaker 2: no vegetation. They're basically doing chemosynthesis, is what it's called.
Speaker 2: They are eating sulfur and methane particles and creating energy
Speaker 2: out of it. And it's very strange because they are
Speaker 2: of the belief now knowing that it doesn't require sunlight
Speaker 2: or oxygen or vegetation, that that might be the type
Speaker 2: of quote unquote life forms that we might have on
Speaker 2: other planets, which is interesting as hell. But anyway, we're
Speaker 2: going to talk about those more in specific as time
Speaker 2: goes on, especially when we get to the blood falls.
Speaker 2: All right, So these incredible species haven't seen fresh air
Speaker 2: or online for millions of years, yet they flourish using
Speaker 2: methane and ammonium as energy to grow. Let's see here,
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, I says. In twenty fourteen, scientists had a
Speaker 2: major breakthrough at Lake Wilhon's discovering a diverse and active
Speaker 2: ecosystem of microorganisms in the lake nearly a kilometer under
Speaker 2: the ice sheet. And it's crazy because these lifeforms haven't
Speaker 2: seen oxygen in multiple millions of years. It's crazy. So
Speaker 2: now we got number two. Deep Lake is an inland
Speaker 2: lake in East Antarctica that has fascinated scientists for years.
Speaker 2: The lake sits fifty five meters below sea level, with
Speaker 2: water salinity increasing as it gets deeper, which is also
Speaker 2: pretty fascinating. The deeper you go, the saltier it gets.
Speaker 2: The salty waters are comparable to the Dead Sea and
Speaker 2: are ten times saltier than the ocean. This means the
Speaker 2: water does not freeze despite temperatures reaching negative twenty degrees celsius.
Speaker 2: For those of you who speak freedom units, not commie units.
Speaker 2: The metric system, as far as temperature goes one hundred
Speaker 2: degrees celsius is boiling point of water, which would be
Speaker 2: two twelve fahrenheit. The freezing point of water is zero
Speaker 2: degree celsius, which we would have is thirty two degrees fahrenheit.
Speaker 2: So whenever they're saying negative to twenty degrees celsius, we're talking
Speaker 2: well below the freezing point of water, and it's still
Speaker 2: not freezing.
Speaker 3: So that's a part of the map that I was
Speaker 3: just talking about a little bit earlier. This is the
Speaker 3: issue that they're seeing in other parts, is that it's
Speaker 3: so salty that it's eroding ice quicker than it can form.
Speaker 2: And that's the thing. It's getting saltier, which goes against
Speaker 2: all logic. Honestly, the Dead Sea, there's a reason why
Speaker 2: it's getting saltier, and we know that Antarctica, they can't
Speaker 2: get deep enough into that lake to get a sample
Speaker 2: of the bedrock, so to speak, so they don't know
Speaker 2: why it's getting salty. They are assuming it is something
Speaker 2: very similar to the Dead Sea. But even still, it's
Speaker 2: melting the ice, which is fresh water, which should desalinate
Speaker 2: the water a bit, but it's just making it work,
Speaker 2: which is it's mind blowing. But anyway, chemistry. I love chemistry,
Speaker 2: but even reading into on some of these things, it's like, wait,
Speaker 2: that that's impossible unless there's some other factor that nobody
Speaker 2: knows about yet. And that's the thing. There are so
Speaker 2: many unknown factors when it comes to this continent, so
Speaker 2: that honestly, sky's the limit as far as hypotheticals goes,
Speaker 2: so the lake is practically inhabitable with one of the
Speaker 2: least productive, yet most remarkable ecosystems in the world. Scientists
Speaker 2: have found four micro species living in the water, although
Speaker 2: it's dangerous for most other animals. Well yeah, some penguins
Speaker 2: have been spotted swimming in the waters, but they can
Speaker 2: easily die as the lake is much colder than the ocean.
Speaker 2: This bitch is freezing penguins.
Speaker 3: The fuck o saltwater lake, salty free freezing pot penguins.
Speaker 2: I mean, that's insane. Penguins are built for this shit.
Speaker 2: Then they get into this saltwater lake and it's like, nah, dude,
Speaker 2: you ain't got a shit on us. Now let's get
Speaker 2: into the blood falls. In the McMurdo Dry Valley, a
Speaker 2: bright crimson five story waterfall pours out of Taylor Glacier
Speaker 2: into Lake Bonnie. It looks like a gush of blood
Speaker 2: from the wound in the ice, But scientists have recently
Speaker 2: discovered the cause behind this mysterious phenomenon, or so they say.
Speaker 4: I was joking with my friend.
Speaker 3: We were talking about the blood falls yesterday, and I
Speaker 3: was seeing, well, hey, maybe this is where all the
Speaker 3: people go and they just they're just pumping out the blood.
Speaker 2: This is where all the bodies on Earth go.
Speaker 4: This is where all the bodies go. They're just chopping
Speaker 4: them up.
Speaker 3: And I mean, I'm kidding cult members, I am kidding.
Speaker 2: But also, could you imagine being Captain Cook, you know,
Speaker 2: and seeing that you're going around this massive ice continent.
Speaker 2: You're trying to draw out the maps, and then you
Speaker 2: look and you're just like, okay, so the Earth is bleeding.
Speaker 2: Obviously that's what this is. We found Earth got hurt
Speaker 2: at some point.
Speaker 4: Maybe she's on her period.
Speaker 2: Maybe that's where Mother Earth is having her period. Because
Speaker 2: this antarctica, whereas the Germans call it Earth's vagina.
Speaker 4: I feel it. I feel that.
Speaker 2: And you know what those sailors probably had that too,
Speaker 2: is like you know what, sure, this explains the storms, right, They're.
Speaker 3: Probably like, oh, okay, yeah, this is the Earth is
Speaker 3: a woman's yep. That's why they're like, this is definitely
Speaker 3: a woman. Moody, temperamental, Oh my god. Sucuations can flourish
Speaker 3: really great brings, life can destroy shit when pissed off. Yo,
Speaker 3: the more you think about it, you're like, no, one
Speaker 3: hundred percent, this is a female.
Speaker 4: Earth is definitely a female. Mother Earth is a vibe,
Speaker 4: you know. Mm hm.
Speaker 3: That's why so many women gravitate towards praising Mother Earth.
Speaker 3: And our blood actually nourishes plants.
Speaker 2: That's true, It is true. Yep.
Speaker 4: The silence is definitely no.
Speaker 2: I'm just I'm trying to think of that from the
Speaker 2: perspective of these sailors who have been to see for
Speaker 2: months and months haven't seen a woman. They ran out
Speaker 2: of manatees to fuck, and then they see they do
Speaker 2: that the sea cow, aka the the ocean's pocket pussy.
Speaker 3: We're just gonna sidestep this and go back to the
Speaker 3: blood falls.
Speaker 2: That's where the story of mermaids came from. They were
Speaker 2: catching sea cows because apparently their vagina is the closest
Speaker 2: thing to a woman's vagina found in nature, so like
Speaker 2: it was a thing. So like you know, Cavin Cook
Speaker 2: and his boys around an article.
Speaker 4: Always men, but it's always fucking men.
Speaker 2: Oh oh really yeah, because you.
Speaker 3: See a whole bunch of women out there just hunting
Speaker 3: down shit.
Speaker 2: The fuck Catherine of Russia was caught fucking a horse
Speaker 2: multiple times. I don't want to hear this woman. Oh oh,
Speaker 2: person two men sh whatever whatever did anyway, back to
Speaker 2: what I was saying. You know, they're out at sea
Speaker 2: for this long and it's frozen. They're on a wooden
Speaker 2: ship with sails and shit, and they're drawing this ice
Speaker 2: wall and then they see that and there's like, cap'n,
Speaker 2: I think that the Earth actually is a woman, and
Speaker 2: then that's proof. And I could just imagine them being like, logically,
Speaker 2: this must be the Earth has a gender, and they
Speaker 2: just wrote that shit down.
Speaker 3: It is one hundred percent of woman. You can't dispute that.
Speaker 3: There's no way that you could say that Earth is
Speaker 3: a man in any way.
Speaker 2: It's a fucking bitch anyway, Ah she is. The Earth
Speaker 2: can be a bitch sometimes.
Speaker 4: All right, back to these blood falls the.
Speaker 2: Record, The sun is a bit of a dick. I'm
Speaker 2: just saying, how many times you've been out in the
Speaker 2: summer or when you was in twenty nine. He's like, okay, son,
Speaker 2: you could quit being a dick whenever you're ready. The
Speaker 2: son's obviously a dude. He's a bit of a dick.
Speaker 4: The Moon's woman.
Speaker 2: I claim that, you know, I'm afraid to dig deeper
Speaker 2: on that because watch that bitch be bleeding too, And shit,
Speaker 2: I don't know, I don't know, we don't know. It's
Speaker 2: on the dark side. But that's the thing. She's a
Speaker 2: two faced bitch what she is becuz we only see
Speaker 2: one side of her. There's a whole other shit going
Speaker 2: on the backside.
Speaker 3: Wow, you are feisy this early morning. She's a duplicitus bitch.
Speaker 4: If nothing else, she's a gemini.
Speaker 2: Yes, yes, we must bring the horoscopes.
Speaker 4: Yeah we should.
Speaker 2: Well, we aren't talking about the moon, so why not. Anyway, anyway,
Speaker 2: back to the blood Falls now, the water that bleeds,
Speaker 2: or the water that feeds Blood Falls, was once a
Speaker 2: salty lake that is now a cutoff from the atmosphere
Speaker 2: due to the formation of glaciers on top of the lake.
Speaker 2: The water is preserved four hundred meters underground and has
Speaker 2: become even saltier over time. It's now three times saltier
Speaker 2: than seawater and cannot freeze. The salt water is also
Speaker 2: extremely rich in iron and completely devoid of oxygen and sunlight.
Speaker 2: The iron rich waters seep through in a fissure in
Speaker 2: the glacier and come out into contact with the air.
Speaker 2: The iron oxides and rusts, staining the water a dark
Speaker 2: red color. The eerie side is only accessible by helicopter
Speaker 2: or cruise ships visiting the Ross Sea.
Speaker 4: So now my ass ain't going on in no cruise ship.
Speaker 2: No, I mean not to Antarctic.
Speaker 4: Like you know you can't fly.
Speaker 2: I mean, yeah, you could fly there. There's planes that
Speaker 2: make their way that drop to drop cargo, and shit,
Speaker 2: I would like to go. There's a there's a resort.
Speaker 3: You the man that can't handle like the slightest of
Speaker 3: temperature drop, yeah, wants to go to the coldest place
Speaker 3: on Earth.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's like fifty degrees outside right now in Louisiana
Speaker 2: cult members and I'm fucking pissed about it, Okay, but
Speaker 2: hear me out. I just would like to step foot
Speaker 2: on every single continent on Earth at least one time
Speaker 2: in my life, just to say that I did it right.
Speaker 2: It's one of those stories. Now, there is a resort
Speaker 2: that opens for like two months out of the year
Speaker 2: in Antarctica every year, and I would like to go.
Speaker 2: I don't want to go on no exploration. I ain't
Speaker 2: going there for no dig sites.
Speaker 4: That's what I would go for.
Speaker 2: Oh No, And like, don't be wrong, there's a part
Speaker 2: of me like to go to the South Pole itself,
Speaker 2: because that moves every year. You know, it's like this
Speaker 2: little brass hockey puck that they put at the specific spot,
Speaker 2: but like every year it moves like three feet. So
Speaker 2: like I would love to go and step at that spot,
Speaker 2: but that's like miles and miles of on your feet
Speaker 2: humping it through Antarctica. I'm good on that. I just
Speaker 2: want to like go see it.
Speaker 3: They actually had a I got sent a couple of
Speaker 3: years ago, like I don't know, maybe two years ago,
Speaker 3: an application to go and to do archaeological dig sites there.
Speaker 2: And I was like, some of the homies that you
Speaker 2: dug with at that other archaeological site, they went there,
Speaker 2: didn't they?
Speaker 3: One of them that I know for sure went there.
Speaker 3: I definitely would go. I mean, I want to see
Speaker 3: what's up. If there was vegetation, which it's one hundred
Speaker 3: percent confirmed, you can't argue that if there's vegetation, there
Speaker 3: should be potentially people that have been there.
Speaker 2: So that's a fair assessment, yes, right, Because if there's
Speaker 2: plant vegetation, there must be animal life, and if there
Speaker 2: is plant and animal life, it would stand to reason
Speaker 2: that human beings have made their way there at some
Speaker 2: or maybe not human beings, maybe you know, one of
Speaker 2: our god knows how far back ancestors or something.
Speaker 3: Yeah, so that's actually the thought is that some type
Speaker 3: of homeo homeo species of some type was there at
Speaker 3: some point.
Speaker 4: Now they just have to find it.
Speaker 2: Now that's fascinating too. I don't know, I don't know
Speaker 2: the amount of digging to get there. Cross.
Speaker 4: Yeah.
Speaker 2: But now we're talking about the flora and fauna of Antarctica.
Speaker 2: Let's talk about number four on the list unusual creatures.
Speaker 2: Antarctica is a barren, icy desert with very little rainfall,
Speaker 2: fierce winds, and the coldest temperatures on Earth. The coldest
Speaker 2: recorded temperature was negative eighty nine point four degrees celsius.
Speaker 2: We're talking about converting that to fair net, you know,
Speaker 2: raveingly real quick, convert that shit to fahrenheit for me,
Speaker 2: because one hundred and eighty nine point four degrees celsius.
Speaker 2: I'm I'm guesstimating here, but that's like one hundred and
Speaker 2: sixty negative one hundred and sixty degrees fahrenheit. That is
Speaker 2: that's disgusting, like, oh my god, why does this place exist?
Speaker 2: That's disgusting, like that actually kind of makes me nauseous.
Speaker 2: Y'all don't understand how much I hate the cold. There's
Speaker 2: a reason I live in Louisiana.
Speaker 4: And then you're sitting here wanting to talk about.
Speaker 2: Going for one day. Yeah, and in the uh you.
Speaker 4: Said eighty nine or one hundred night.
Speaker 2: Negative eighty nine point four. Oh wow, converted to fahrenheit,
Speaker 2: I'm guesstimating that it's around one hundred negative one hundred
Speaker 2: and sixty fahrenheit.
Speaker 3: Let's see, it's one hundred and twenty nine, one hundred
Speaker 3: and ninety two fahrenheit.
Speaker 2: Negative one hundred and ninety two fahrenheit. Wow, I was
Speaker 2: off by a bit. The coldest recorded temperature on Earth
Speaker 2: is negative one hundred and ninety two degrees fahrenheit.
Speaker 4: I wonder how cold the different parts of the Moon
Speaker 4: is or Mars.
Speaker 2: So depending on which science you read, some say we've
Speaker 2: never been to the dark side of the Moon, so
Speaker 2: we don't know.
Speaker 3: Well, I'm just saying because of the creatures quote unquote
Speaker 3: that we've found down there that are have no sunlight,
Speaker 3: no air, that are surviving and thriving, stands reason that
Speaker 3: potentially they could have came from other planets. Could be,
Speaker 3: you know, so I was just kind of curious. If
Speaker 3: it got that freezing cold, then I actually don't know
Speaker 3: what the temperature is of those planets, So I don't
Speaker 3: know either.
Speaker 2: We may talk about these planets another time, to be
Speaker 2: honest with you. Yet, it also is home to a
Speaker 2: myriad of unique wildlife. It was previously thought that nothing
Speaker 2: could survive beneath the mass of ice sheets. However, scientists
Speaker 2: had discovered a number of unusual species that have adapted
Speaker 2: to the harsh environment. These are microbes, crustaceans, colossal squid,
Speaker 2: leggy spiders the size of dinner plates.
Speaker 4: Have you seen the spiders?
Speaker 2: No, Oh my god, there's got fucking spiders the size
Speaker 2: of dinner plates.
Speaker 4: In the water.
Speaker 3: Oh god, water, they're alive. So there's a video that
Speaker 3: we're gonna show later on. That's an hour and thirty minutes.
Speaker 3: They actually show video of the spiders that they saw
Speaker 3: when they went down.
Speaker 4: They showing them there's this massive one.
Speaker 3: On this boulder, and I was like, you know what,
Speaker 3: of course it would be a goddamn spider that's alive
Speaker 3: under the water.
Speaker 2: Like now, it changes the topic. Whenever we hear that
Speaker 2: the United States nuked Antarctica three times. Now you're thinking, like,
Speaker 2: you know, maybe they were on something here.
Speaker 3: Yo, the alien movies become more and more realistic every day.
Speaker 3: Prometheus is definitely a vibe I don't For those that
Speaker 3: don't know, I'm a complete alien movie nerd.
Speaker 4: Yeah, like a definite one.
Speaker 2: So I still don't believe they're coming here to help humanity, like,
Speaker 2: not even a little bit.
Speaker 4: Nick will tell you otherwise.
Speaker 2: I know that there's people out there, in good Cole
Speaker 2: members even that disagree with my statement on that, and
Speaker 2: that's fine.
Speaker 3: I think there could be eventually two different types, well
Speaker 3: not two different types, two types ones that want to
Speaker 3: take over and ones that might actually not want really
Speaker 3: much of anything, that are doing their own exploration of
Speaker 3: space and they're just kind of like, hey, what's up?
Speaker 3: There could be standard reason now those that are coming
Speaker 3: here and taking people know the one hundred percent were fucked.
Speaker 2: Oh no, listen, I'm not saying that all aliens are
Speaker 2: inherently bad and are all trying to kill humanity. I'm
Speaker 2: not saying that. I'm saying that they probably run the game,
Speaker 2: but the same way that people do. There are some
Speaker 2: great people out there. There are some evil people out there,
Speaker 2: but there are all still people. What I am saying
Speaker 2: is that the aliens that are making the journey to
Speaker 2: us probably aren't the space hippies that are out here
Speaker 2: just trying to vibe.
Speaker 4: I think it could be both.
Speaker 3: I think that it could have their own science sector
Speaker 3: where they're like coming to explore to see what's up
Speaker 3: with other planets that kind of vibe, and they're not
Speaker 3: actually here to kill nobody. And then I one hundred
Speaker 3: percent believe that various takeover aliens of some type. Obviously
Speaker 3: the man I'm not off that, by the way, the manchuers, Yeah,
Speaker 3: I'm not off of it.
Speaker 2: That really fucked you up.
Speaker 3: I'm telling you, aliens is not my vibe, like in
Speaker 3: the sense of like do I want to get down
Speaker 3: with them? Absolutely not. I would take a vampire over
Speaker 3: aliens any day of the week.
Speaker 2: Yeah, And vampire is guaranteed will kill you.
Speaker 4: Aliens might I might have a chance to survive because like,
Speaker 4: maybe they're not gonna turn you. You know what, I
Speaker 4: could be quite you know, persuasive. Okay, I can be
Speaker 4: really persuasive.
Speaker 6: All right.
Speaker 3: I'd be like, look, let me help you out. You
Speaker 3: want you want to get some more people. I got you.
Speaker 3: I'll be like, oh boy, like deeper creepers could drive
Speaker 3: around my little van and like collecting people that are
Speaker 3: terrible and be like here you go.
Speaker 2: Oh so you're just gonna feed the vampire a bunch
Speaker 2: of homeless like addicts.
Speaker 4: Not homeless, no pedophiles. Ah, I'm doing justice for people.
Speaker 4: See you're welcome. I might be able to, like, you know,
Speaker 4: swiggle my way into that.
Speaker 2: Why don't we give the aliens the pedophiles?
Speaker 4: I don't understand that, Like why.
Speaker 2: Or the homeless give them them for experimentation and shit?
Speaker 2: That's fine.
Speaker 3: Well, there's actually a lot to be said that a
Speaker 3: lot of homeless go missing, like a lot of molests
Speaker 3: go missing every year, and they just vanish and they're.
Speaker 2: Just they're not getting harvested for their organs. That's for
Speaker 2: goddamn sure, because them people have ruined their bodies by
Speaker 2: that point, right with the crazy drug epidemics that are
Speaker 2: so rampant within the homeless community, or excuse me, I'm sorry,
Speaker 2: let's use the politically correct term the unhoused, the unhomed community,
Speaker 2: which is fucking stupid.
Speaker 3: I mean, they at least a lot of them though
Speaker 3: have There is a good portion that have gone through
Speaker 3: a lot of stuff that definitely just need help.
Speaker 4: But like the pedophiles, now, let's kill them all.
Speaker 2: I no, no, and not every single homeless person is
Speaker 2: like a horrible human being by any means. There are
Speaker 2: some people that truly fell on hard times through no
Speaker 2: fall to their troubles.
Speaker 4: Drugs are but they're highly addictive.
Speaker 3: I mean, being an addict like is really hard for
Speaker 3: a lot of people, but there.
Speaker 2: Is I would argue that most of the homeless community
Speaker 2: are homeless by choice because they would rather live in
Speaker 2: a lawless society where they're just left to their own
Speaker 2: devices to do what they want.
Speaker 3: I don't know statistics, to be honest with you. But anyway,
Speaker 3: back to the creatures.
Speaker 4: Of the deep.
Speaker 2: Yeah, so all right, Like I said, there are microbes, crustaceans,
Speaker 2: colossal squid, leggy spiders the size of dinner's plates, giant
Speaker 2: worms with shiny golden bristles, and a large, sharp toothed jaw.
Speaker 4: Dune.
Speaker 2: They got Dune, and they got the kraken in these lakes.
Speaker 4: And they got aliens, the alien perverse predator.
Speaker 2: Tell me this isn't an alien. Tell me any of
Speaker 2: these aren't aliens anyway. You can't even see through the
Speaker 2: ice or I'm sorry, you can even see through the ice. Fish.
Speaker 2: They're translation the translucent ones.
Speaker 3: Oh man, they're really cool. If you actually look at
Speaker 3: the and their brains are right behind their eyes, and
Speaker 3: they're super little. They're really neat to look at. I
Speaker 3: actually really fuck with the dark deep creatures.
Speaker 2: Some of these creatures don't even have eyes because they
Speaker 2: have no sunlight, and they have no pigmentation because there's
Speaker 2: no need for pigmentation if there's no light.
Speaker 3: So one shark that they found that's like one of
Speaker 3: the oldest I think it's like recker. They think it's
Speaker 3: like around five hundred years old or four hundred and
Speaker 3: eighty years old.
Speaker 2: That one specific shark.
Speaker 4: Yes, wow, and it has no eyes.
Speaker 3: Goddamn, it's really creepy looking, but it's super fascinating.
Speaker 2: But that's some of them have no eyes. But some
Speaker 2: of these strange creatures have large eyes and their internal
Speaker 2: organs can be seen through their translucent skin. The fish
Speaker 2: have anti freeze glioproteins and cannot survive in warmer waters.
Speaker 2: They literally have anti freeze in their veins.
Speaker 3: I'm surprised they don't harvest them to try to use
Speaker 3: them with the bat blood to be able to let
Speaker 3: us go into space.
Speaker 2: Don't. Don't even give them the fucking idea. Next thing,
Speaker 2: you know, we're gonna be having other types of chimera
Speaker 2: hybrids in this bitch.
Speaker 4: But I don't doubt that they're going to use it.
Speaker 3: If they have the property to be able to try
Speaker 3: to mix with human blood, it would make sense.
Speaker 2: They also don't have any hemoglobin, which is the protein
Speaker 2: that makes our blood red, which that's fascinating. Now let's
Speaker 2: talk about some of the Now we talked about some
Speaker 2: of the fauna of Antarctica, let's talk about some of
Speaker 2: the flora of Antarctica. There is an ancient fossil rainforest
Speaker 2: in Antarctica, holy shit, and Arca previously was a warm
Speaker 2: region with rainforests. Antarca is an ancient land that has
Speaker 2: undergone some incredible transformations over millions of years before it
Speaker 2: became a frozen desert after the ice Age. Antarctica is
Speaker 2: actually a warm region with rainforests and possibly even civilizations, which,
Speaker 2: gotta be honest with you, that makes sense.
Speaker 4: The seam squenches are there is.
Speaker 2: That where the same squenches took off from me.
Speaker 4: Maybe that's where they are.
Speaker 2: Oh man, we at this point, would it be a
Speaker 2: yetti or sam squench?
Speaker 3: What if they were like they hybrided it, and then
Speaker 3: that's where they are.
Speaker 2: Like that polar bear brown bear mixture that they just found.
Speaker 3: Oh shit, y'all, Oh my god, I'm excited now.
Speaker 2: Theory developed from the discovery of fossilized wood signs of
Speaker 2: tropical trees and leaf impressions that show the existence of
Speaker 2: rainforests in Antarctica. Scientists have also found a ton of
Speaker 2: fossils from marine animals, birds, and dinosaurs from the Crustaceous period.
Speaker 2: Among the smaller species, they've uncovered the fossils fore wings
Speaker 2: of a beetle species that lived between fourteen and twenty
Speaker 2: million years ago in warmer climates, and tiny single cell
Speaker 2: fossils that have been a great source of debate among scientists.
Speaker 2: They've also found fifty million year old sperm cells on
Speaker 2: the egg case of a long extinct species of worm,
Speaker 2: an extraordinary discovery that scientists hope will lead to the
Speaker 2: new evolutionary information.
Speaker 4: They're going to recreate it.
Speaker 2: They have to now, right they have the egg and
Speaker 2: the sperm of some prehistoric worm. Clearly we need to
Speaker 2: get that into a crisper about the dire wolf back.
Speaker 2: So they're going to do it. They tried, that's not
Speaker 2: a real They did gene splicing to make it a
Speaker 2: kind of dire wolf hybrid. But it's if we're gonna
Speaker 2: get technical that things like maybe twenty percent dire wolf. Okay,
Speaker 2: but it at least steps in that directly.
Speaker 4: Watch Jurassic Park except for somebody.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I tried.
Speaker 4: How do you not watch Jurassic Park as a kid.
Speaker 3: It is one of the most iconic movies and one
Speaker 3: of my favorite movies ever.
Speaker 2: I don't. I'm not gonna throw shade at it. The
Speaker 2: concept is cool. The is a star study cast, all
Speaker 2: the things. It's kind of like Star Wars.
Speaker 4: Today, I was gonna say it.
Speaker 3: I was just saying, and you're gonna say it's like
Speaker 3: Star Wars or Star Trek, which you're also lame and
Speaker 3: gay for.
Speaker 4: Not like those.
Speaker 2: I understand. I understand the fandom. I get why people
Speaker 2: lose their shit over it. Star studied cast, excellent writing,
Speaker 2: the cinematography, the everything that the CGI. I get all
Speaker 2: of it. It's just not my jam.
Speaker 3: I would rather do in his ear was like one
Speaker 3: of the most Like as a kid, I was, ooh,
Speaker 3: they hold this guy down and they put this warm
Speaker 3: in his ear and it like gets into side of
Speaker 3: his brain and stuff, and just it fucked.
Speaker 4: Me up as a kid. But I was like, yes
Speaker 4: again as well.
Speaker 2: But I get the fandom, it's just not my jam.
Speaker 2: I would literally rather do anything else than sit and
Speaker 2: watch that.
Speaker 3: Okay, I know we're gonna move on before I feel
Speaker 3: some type of way.
Speaker 2: Listen, I understand I've gotten shits so much because of
Speaker 2: this throughout my entire life.
Speaker 4: I will never let this go.
Speaker 2: That's fine.
Speaker 3: Good cult members, if you hear me, send me all
Speaker 3: the Star Trek and Star Wars memes and Jurassic Park.
Speaker 3: Andrassic Park because I got you, because I am one
Speaker 3: hundred percent a fan.
Speaker 2: And anything involving Chevy Chase because god, I can't stand
Speaker 2: that guy.
Speaker 3: National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation is my favorite Christmas movie besides
Speaker 3: White Christmas and The Grinch.
Speaker 4: The Og Grinch, by the way.
Speaker 2: The cartoon not with Jim Carrey.
Speaker 3: No, the cartoon with Boris Karloff. I do love that
Speaker 3: is the true Grinch. I agree Boris Karloff. But I
Speaker 3: also I'm a fan of all original horror movies and
Speaker 3: like their whole thing. So that was my absolute favorite.
Speaker 3: I probably watched it at least twenty times every Christmas.
Speaker 2: Yeah for real, saying, but I do you like the
Speaker 2: Jim Carrey Jim Carrey suck in that movie?
Speaker 3: Like it was good, but it wasn't that good, Like
Speaker 3: it wasn't like the most amazing.
Speaker 2: I think it was a good remake, that's all. I'm
Speaker 2: not going to say it's better than the original. It's
Speaker 2: just it's different. It's the same with the new new
Speaker 2: one that they have the cgi on with. Uh, it's
Speaker 2: old Bennitt cumber Patch is the voice of old Doctor
Speaker 2: Strange is the voice of the Grinch. And like, it's
Speaker 2: a decent remake. It's not better than the Jim Carrey version,
Speaker 2: but it's also not necessarily in line with it, you
Speaker 2: know what I mean. It's like they took inspiration from it.
Speaker 2: But anyway, all right, now let's get into the gamber
Speaker 2: stev Mountain range. Some of these would say these are
Speaker 2: the pyramids that are in an article, which are very fascinating,
Speaker 2: and we may in fact do a whole other episode
Speaker 2: talking about those and some of the other stuff that
Speaker 2: we're kind of briefly touching on today but not going
Speaker 2: in depth on. But let's talk about it here. Antarctica
Speaker 2: holds many secrets beneath its vast ice sheets, even a
Speaker 2: massive mountain range hidden below a two or four thousand
Speaker 2: I'm sorry, two two four thousand kilometer thick sheet of
Speaker 2: ice are the gamber Staff Mountains. They stretch for twelve
Speaker 2: hundred kilometers and rise three thousand meters, a third of
Speaker 2: the height of Mount Everest. Also, I just watched the
Speaker 2: dude ski down the entirety of Mount Everest. Yeah, that
Speaker 2: was awesome.
Speaker 3: I were super fascinated with Mount eversus a kid. In fact,
Speaker 3: I'm not gonna lie, I may or may not have
Speaker 3: wanted to hike the bitch.
Speaker 2: Oh sure, that's another one. I hate the cold, but
Speaker 2: like I would give it the old college try.
Speaker 3: I definitely spent a good majority of my childhood figuring
Speaker 3: out if I was going to, like, if I had
Speaker 3: it in me enough to do this. Yeah, and I
Speaker 3: actually really wanted to do it, hiking and rock climbing
Speaker 3: and everything like that.
Speaker 2: So I thought about it more as a kid too,
Speaker 2: And I was like, you know what, I can't just
Speaker 2: like decide to do Everest. It's like deciding you're going
Speaker 2: to run a marathon with no training prior to. It's
Speaker 2: not a good move. So like, okay, how about I
Speaker 2: try climbing the tallest mountain range in North America, right
Speaker 2: the peak of North America, and then see how well
Speaker 2: that goes, and then I'll gauge if I can go
Speaker 2: that route. Yo in the Marine Corps. Just doing basic
Speaker 2: hiking taught me. Fuck that shit, I'm good.
Speaker 4: I am even say I like you hate hiking, I
Speaker 4: do so much.
Speaker 3: I actually belonged to Hike It Baby Group when I
Speaker 3: was lived in organ So Hike It Baby, Yeah, shout
Speaker 3: out to Shanty So those of you that have kids.
Speaker 3: Hike It Baby Group is a national group that Shanty made.
Speaker 3: She lives in Orgon and they pretty much get together
Speaker 3: a whole bunch of moms and we wear our babies
Speaker 3: and we go for hikes.
Speaker 2: Okay, and like that's that's different. That's fun, right because
Speaker 2: you're doing it with friends. It's about being outside all.
Speaker 4: These but then that's I started my love of hiking.
Speaker 3: So I wore my one child for like probably I
Speaker 3: think it was like five hundred collective miles over a
Speaker 3: course of a few years of that.
Speaker 2: That's wild.
Speaker 4: Yeah, Like we did, we did a lot of hikes.
Speaker 3: We at one point we're doing every day a hike
Speaker 3: and just depending on how long, you know, he wanted
Speaker 3: to go and stuff, we would if we would hike
Speaker 3: a lot, like it took years to hike that much.
Speaker 2: But it's not hiking in its principality that I hate
Speaker 2: so much. Like, Okay, if you're especially if you're doing
Speaker 2: like uh no, not even that. Like let's say you're
Speaker 2: doing an elk hunt, right, you have to hike it
Speaker 2: through the mountain range to get to the elk and
Speaker 2: then field to strip it in there so you could
Speaker 2: carry this shit out. And that's like you're hiking, but
Speaker 2: for a purpose. I have no problems with that.
Speaker 4: If you're going to something you can't handle just.
Speaker 2: Walking in the woods just for the sake of walking
Speaker 2: in the woods, I'm like that, But for what purpose?
Speaker 3: That's so funny because where me, I'm like, let's go
Speaker 3: to the woods and just go walk.
Speaker 2: Like a fish or something where there's like there's this
Speaker 2: one fishing hole, but it's like twenty miles in the woods.
Speaker 2: There's no trails to get there. We have to hike it. Okay,
Speaker 2: I'm down. It's for a purpose. And when we get there,
Speaker 2: we're gonna camp out over the night and then we're
Speaker 2: gonna come back. Okay, that's all fine and good. It's
Speaker 2: the same concept of these people that are like, oh,
Speaker 2: camping is a family tradition, I.
Speaker 4: Really do that camping?
Speaker 6: No?
Speaker 2: Why why?
Speaker 3: I absolutely let But that's the cultural differences between my
Speaker 3: home verse here.
Speaker 2: No, camping used to be everybody's family tradition until we
Speaker 2: created the thing called the fucking house dog.
Speaker 4: Everybody goes camping on the West Coast.
Speaker 3: But what purpose to just enjoy nature, to unplug, to
Speaker 3: be out in nature, to get back to our roots,
Speaker 3: to be able to just there is an actual science
Speaker 3: about being a nature and how it pretty much resets
Speaker 3: your nervous system. And for me, when when I do
Speaker 3: go home, I like strategically plan my hikes with how
Speaker 3: long I'm gonna be home, and like I plan how
Speaker 3: many hikes I can get in, how much I can
Speaker 3: go outdoors, Like cause down the street from my parents'
Speaker 3: house is one of one of the main hiking trails
Speaker 3: I mean, I live under the mountains, so like I
Speaker 3: can go all over to hike. So I planted out
Speaker 3: just how much time I can spend in nature and camp.
Speaker 2: Maybe it's just different. I guess it depends on who
Speaker 2: you are and where you're from. I not do that, no,
Speaker 2: not of course not. But being in nature though I
Speaker 2: grew up on the Bayou and being in the woods
Speaker 2: more often than I wasn't like making fires is a
Speaker 2: thing I did every single day. Sleeping outside was a
Speaker 2: thing that we did all the time. So it's not
Speaker 2: like it wasn't like a crazy connection thing for me.
Speaker 2: It was like just a thing we did. So I guess,
Speaker 2: like the theory of I understand why people from like
Speaker 2: the city, why they would go on like their yearly
Speaker 2: camping trip, because like they just don't do nature.
Speaker 4: They like to do it.
Speaker 3: Honestly, Like all my friends that are still back home,
Speaker 3: they go camping several times a year. I mean, the
Speaker 3: camp site is a twenty minute drive away from my house.
Speaker 3: Tons of people do that.
Speaker 2: Fuck a camping site. That's what the camping site is.
Speaker 3: All it is is just a you're just able to
Speaker 3: park your car and then walk to the camping site.
Speaker 3: Can't like walk into it there is. It kind of
Speaker 3: moves around like you can kind of drive, you can.
Speaker 3: You can camp anywhere all over.
Speaker 2: And fuck lamping, fuck all that. Get to a cabin
Speaker 2: and shit, no, get on the ground.
Speaker 4: I love cabin so oh my gosh.
Speaker 2: But you don't consider that camping. You consider that a.
Speaker 3: Consider that like a vacation, Like you're taking a vacation.
Speaker 3: For me, I just go out in the woods. We
Speaker 3: we went to Tennessee and did that for I think
Speaker 3: it was like six days.
Speaker 4: We got a cabin in the woods and we just
Speaker 4: were out there.
Speaker 2: And that's fine. I got no issue with that. But
Speaker 2: these people that consider that camping that that kills me. Also,
Speaker 2: it's no just say you went on a vacation to
Speaker 2: a cottage. That's dope, no issue with it. Camping is
Speaker 2: when like, yo, you don't have you're not bringing your
Speaker 2: own water, like you got to figure that shit out.
Speaker 2: You you're eating whatever you killed while you're out there,
Speaker 2: or whatever you caught while you're out there, Like you're
Speaker 2: not even bringing food with you, like we're doing that
Speaker 2: kind of thing. But apparently these people are like, well,
Speaker 2: that's not camping. I'm like, then, what do you call
Speaker 2: it survival surviving, which is what camping is supposed to be.
Speaker 2: Which also I can't wait whenever my children turn sixteen,
Speaker 2: I cannot wait to take them on a survival camping
Speaker 2: trip where we literally go into the woods for three
Speaker 2: days with only what we can carry in our pockets,
Speaker 2: no bags, and we are gonna survive.
Speaker 4: I can carry a lot of shit.
Speaker 2: I mean sure, But besides the point, like, these are
Speaker 2: skills that you need, I personally believe that every human
Speaker 2: being should know. You should know how to start a fire.
Speaker 2: You should know how to make a gypsy well and
Speaker 2: get some assemblance of clean drinking water. You should learn
Speaker 2: how to set up a snare trap. You should like
Speaker 2: these are basic things that humans have been doing since
Speaker 2: the beginning of time. But that's just not a thing
Speaker 2: that people know how to do anymore.
Speaker 4: People don't know how to grow gardens hardly anymore.
Speaker 2: The same thing.
Speaker 4: Yeah, no, so roadblocks doesn't count.
Speaker 2: No, it does not.
Speaker 4: I do love grog garden roadblocks.
Speaker 2: God anyway, all right back to this here. The mountains
Speaker 2: were named after Soviet geophysicist Grigory A. Gamber Stev after
Speaker 2: they were discovered in nineteen fifty eight by Russian scientists.
Speaker 2: The scientists are traveling across an article when they encountered
Speaker 2: a thin spread of ice and recorded abnormal gravity fluctuations.
Speaker 2: Now that's interesting, revealing an incredible wonder below. Although we've
Speaker 2: never seen the mountains. Scientists use radar to see the
Speaker 2: physical features of the mountains, while gravitational and magnetic readings
Speaker 2: allowed them to study the mountains all the way to
Speaker 2: their base. The gamber Stevs have long baffled scientists as
Speaker 2: to how they were formed and why they still exist.
Speaker 2: As mountains are around a billion years old, they should
Speaker 2: have eroded away with the geological passing of time. There
Speaker 2: are many theories about how they are still standing. Predominantly
Speaker 2: that they that there may be a frozen mantle protecting
Speaker 2: the mountains from erosion. That's pretty incredible. And yes, there's
Speaker 2: that one mountain set that is very pyramid looking, very
Speaker 2: very pyramid looking, and there have been some scientific explanations
Speaker 2: as to why that is. Right. When a glacier forms
Speaker 2: on the side of a mountain and then melts off
Speaker 2: and shears off, that's how you get these mountains that
Speaker 2: have like a smooth side to it that looks really crazy. Typically,
Speaker 2: though in other spots around the world, you'll see a
Speaker 2: mountain with one or two of these sheer faces to them,
Speaker 2: not four. So I understand why a lot of people
Speaker 2: would say there's pyramids in Antarctica. I could get it.
Speaker 2: That being said, Antarctica is also a bit of an
Speaker 2: anomaly as far as the world is concerned, and when
Speaker 2: we're talking about glaciers that will shear off the side
Speaker 2: of a mountain, it makes way more sense that we
Speaker 2: would have that type of natural formation in Antarctica that
Speaker 2: anywhere else on Earth.
Speaker 3: It does look like a pyramid, though it does from
Speaker 3: the aerial views, in the photos and stuff, it does
Speaker 3: look like a pyramid, and there is talk that it
Speaker 3: looks similar to other pyramid formations around the world.
Speaker 4: That's why a lot of people go with it.
Speaker 2: And we're gonna do an episode on that one as
Speaker 2: well later on. So let's get into this next one here.
Speaker 2: The singing ice. Yeah, that's right, the singing ice of Antarctica.
Speaker 2: Maybe you've heard of it. A massive slab of ice
Speaker 2: in Antarctica is singing. The Ross Ice Shelf is the
Speaker 2: largest ice shelf in Antarctica. It's several hundred meters thick
Speaker 2: and covers an area of fifty five hundred thousand square
Speaker 2: kilometers around the size of France. Scientists have recently discovered
Speaker 2: that the Ross ice shelf sings an eerie metaly melody yeah,
Speaker 2: caused by the winds blowing across the snow dunes. The
Speaker 2: winds create surface vibrations and almost NonStop seismic tones. The
Speaker 2: vibrations aren't audible to human ears, and scientists use seismic
Speaker 2: sensors to listen to the mournful tune. The song was
Speaker 2: discovered by ancient accident, rather after seismic sensors were installed
Speaker 2: on the ice shelf to observe other behaviors. Scientists have
Speaker 2: since discovered that the song changes in response to the environment,
Speaker 2: such as melting or storm shifting in the snow. They're
Speaker 2: now using the song as a tool to monitor the
Speaker 2: ice shelf in real time, tracking its stability and vulnerability
Speaker 2: for collapse through the seismic humming.
Speaker 3: That's kind of wild, I mean, is that the I
Speaker 3: wonder if that's the same kind of concept about how
Speaker 3: the trees talk to each other and everything talks to
Speaker 3: each other.
Speaker 4: And then it reminds me of the whales singing.
Speaker 2: I think it's closer to the whales singing because the
Speaker 2: trees talking to each other are through my seal on
Speaker 2: network through mushrooms. Right. This is the wind is blowing
Speaker 2: on the ice, which is causing vibrations and that's just
Speaker 2: creating the sound.
Speaker 3: But it just reminds me of how everything is communicating
Speaker 3: and how we only can hear certain amount of stuff
Speaker 3: versus whatever, what the world is actually doing.
Speaker 2: Agreed, Agreed. Next the giant hole. Yeah, we're gonna get
Speaker 2: into that one here, more specifically, in a bit a
Speaker 2: hole the size of Ireland Ireland opened in Antarctica in
Speaker 2: twenty seventeen. Known as a pollinia, the hole is nothing new,
Speaker 2: except with a span of seventy eight thousand square kilometers,
Speaker 2: it's the largest hole to be observed since the nineteen
Speaker 2: seventies aka your mom, and the first one to open
Speaker 2: in forty years. Not your mom, raven Lee, I'm talking
Speaker 2: to the listener.
Speaker 4: Gee, I damn so aggressive.
Speaker 2: That's fucking hilarious. Stop it Found in the Wettle Sea
Speaker 2: of the Southern Ocean. The pollen Pollinia was formed due
Speaker 2: to warmer, saltier water found in the deeper parts of
Speaker 2: the sea. Warm water is pushed up by ocean currents,
Speaker 2: melting the ice on the surface. As the water comes
Speaker 2: in contact with the cooler surface water, it sinks again,
Speaker 2: only to be reheated and pushed back to the surface.
Speaker 2: Scientists aren't completely sure why the pollinias are created, but
Speaker 2: they believed it may be marine mammals using the opening
Speaker 2: to breathe. They are they're still working to understand the
Speaker 2: impact of these strange giant holes.
Speaker 3: We're gonna talk about it later on the latest stuff
Speaker 3: that they just came out with.
Speaker 4: But can we just.
Speaker 3: What marine animals the size of Ireland?
Speaker 2: Aka love of violin your mom, listener, I'm so.
Speaker 4: Glad we're very serious on this morning.
Speaker 2: Super cereal. We're so super super cereal. But yeah, again
Speaker 2: to your point, what kind of giant mammal is basically
Speaker 2: breathing enough to make a hole the size of Ireland
Speaker 2: in the ice of animatica? I don't want to know,
Speaker 2: Like I because the Leviathan is supposed to be a
Speaker 2: giant snack type thing. I know.
Speaker 4: That's why I'm like, that's not.
Speaker 2: A mammal, So that what the fuck we talk about?
Speaker 2: We talking about like the behemoth, we're talking about.
Speaker 4: Like who knows, Sam Squatches.
Speaker 2: Maybe it's the Earth. Maybe that's just the Earth's blowhole.
Speaker 4: I'm not gonna go.
Speaker 2: There, AKA, your mo.
Speaker 3: I just had one of those intrusive thoughts. You're just like,
Speaker 3: not an appropriate time to say. I just not have
Speaker 3: no number mountain no.
Speaker 2: Respectful.
Speaker 4: You can tell me my face that.
Speaker 2: I'm Oh God, this has gotta be a good one.
Speaker 2: Any what.
Speaker 4: These people don't need to know I have dark humor.
Speaker 2: Okay, your name is Raven Lee. Are you you're a
Speaker 2: goth queen? Yeah?
Speaker 5: No one, No one knows anyway.
Speaker 2: Mount Arribus or Erebus. Not sure how I'm pronouncing that one.
Speaker 2: The spectacular view of Mount Arribus if you're looking on
Speaker 2: screen right now, if you're on the Patreon this is
Speaker 2: it looks like a volcano. Now. I don't know if
Speaker 2: that's just crazy picture of a cloud formation that just
Speaker 2: happens to be perfectly behind it, or if this bitch
Speaker 2: is an act of volcano in Antarctica. But let's read
Speaker 2: about together. Despite the freezing conditions, Antarctica is home to
Speaker 2: a number of volcanoes. There are four volcanoes on Ross Island,
Speaker 2: although all are in active, except Mount Ribas, which has
Speaker 2: actually increased its volcanic activity in the last thirty years.
Speaker 2: Mount Ribus is an extremely natural or an extreme natural wonder,
Speaker 2: with liquid magma and ancient lava lakes that have been
Speaker 2: boiling for around one point three million years. It's the
Speaker 2: world's southernmost active volcano in Antarctica's second highest volcano, towering
Speaker 2: three hundred or three thy eight hundred meters high. Scientists
Speaker 2: cannot often visit Mount Aarribas due to its remote location
Speaker 2: and dangerous weather conditions, although a team of scientists managed
Speaker 2: to climb the volcano in twenty thirteen. They hiked through
Speaker 2: snow rocks and glaciers to its peak, where they found
Speaker 2: organisms living in the heat of the volcano. They also
Speaker 2: discovered a number of ice caves with thriving micro organisms
Speaker 2: in the soil, and is believed that these extreme creatures
Speaker 2: are some of the most unique in the world. Yeah,
Speaker 2: I'll fucking beg.
Speaker 3: God, that's the peak of science right there in Russia's
Speaker 3: studied that your entire life and to be able to
Speaker 3: go to a place at nine anyone has been to
Speaker 3: find microorganism it Wow, I got you.
Speaker 4: I am just fucking life up today. The Jesus to
Speaker 4: find them bitches there.
Speaker 2: That's insane.
Speaker 3: Man, I would be pumped if I was a scientists, honestly.
Speaker 2: I mean it's they're saying that these creatures are some
Speaker 2: of the most unique in the world. Yeah, they're one
Speaker 2: the only active volcano in Antarctica and they're surviving and
Speaker 2: thriving there. Yeah. I guarantee there's nothing like this anywhere else.
Speaker 4: I want to say, the black fungus or the black mold.
Speaker 2: Yeah, inchernobyle, which that's also crazy, crazy things. But anyway,
Speaker 2: the Earth do be earthen that fickle bitch. Uh. The
Speaker 2: Southern Ocean of Antarctica, the Southern Ocean, which surrounds Antarctica,
Speaker 2: was named the world's fifth ocean in two thousand. I'm sorry,
Speaker 2: uh that one. That one's kind of weird for me. Okay,
Speaker 2: So we got Atlantic, Pacific, Indian, Arctic, Antarctic. What am
Speaker 2: I missing here?
Speaker 4: The Mediterrane.
Speaker 2: See that's a sea out of ocean. True, So instead
Speaker 2: of Antarctic are they named it an ocean? It's the South,
Speaker 2: it's the Southern Ocean. And they didn't name the ocean
Speaker 2: surrounding Antarctica until two thousand.
Speaker 4: Scientists have found this Southern Ocean.
Speaker 2: Yeah, ohkay, science be science, And I guess what the
Speaker 2: fuck did they think was the water around Antarctica? Getting
Speaker 2: off topic, It plays a major role in driving global
Speaker 2: ocean circulation and also consists of these southern parts of
Speaker 2: the Pacific, Indian, and Atlantic oceans. Okay, so maybe that's
Speaker 2: just what they was.
Speaker 4: They thought it was a mixing pot, right.
Speaker 2: I guess like they just thought the Atlantic Ocean went
Speaker 2: all the way down to Antarctica. Now they're saying, no, wait,
Speaker 2: it runs into the Southern Ocean.
Speaker 4: Like okay, well, because it does something different when you
Speaker 4: keep reading.
Speaker 2: Okay. With a maximum death of a barrow seventy three
Speaker 2: hundred meters, it's nearly twice the size of the United States.
Speaker 2: This mysterious ocean may hold the secret to carbon emission absorption.
Speaker 2: Oh for the love of fuck. Scientists have found that
Speaker 2: the Southern Ocean has absorbed fifteen percent of carbon emissions
Speaker 2: created by humans. It's an incredible amount, although it won't
Speaker 2: last forever, and scientists are working quickly to uncover how
Speaker 2: this process works. Those who venture by ship to Antarctica
Speaker 2: will cruise through the Southern Ocean, witnessing the sheer power
Speaker 2: of the sea as you look out from the observation
Speaker 2: decks to catch your first glimpse of the Antarctic peninsula. Wow.
Speaker 2: All right, So now we're getting into Mercmurdo Dry Valleys,
Speaker 2: which this base, the McMurdo Base, is gonna get a
Speaker 2: special little bit of a mention on this one because
Speaker 2: the first murder in Antarctica, confirmed murder, took place at
Speaker 2: this installation. And also it's completely ran by raytheod the
Speaker 2: American military contractor somehow had an exclusive contract for the
Speaker 2: McMurdo Antarctica Base. We're going to get to all that
Speaker 2: in a bit. The thought of a desert usually conjures
Speaker 2: up images of hot, sandy plains, Yet Antarctica is the
Speaker 2: largest desert in the world. It's incredibly dry and windy,
Speaker 2: with at least with as little as fifty millimeters of
Speaker 2: rain annually. While ninety nine percent of the continent is
Speaker 2: covered in ice, in the remaining one percent, you'll find
Speaker 2: McMurdo Dry Valleys, where massive sand dunes reach up to
Speaker 2: seventy meters high and two hundred meters wide. Although you
Speaker 2: can't go sandboarding down these dunes, they are incredibly important
Speaker 2: sites for researchers. The dry valleys have a similar climate
Speaker 2: to Mars, and scientists believe the region could hold the
Speaker 2: secrets to life on other planets. However, the dunes are
Speaker 2: moving at an alarming rate, migrating at an average of
Speaker 2: one and a half meters per year. Scientists believe this
Speaker 2: is caused by climate change, like everything else has to be,
Speaker 2: as the atmosphere heats up, the ice melts, and the
Speaker 2: dunes slip away. They are currently working quickly to unlock
Speaker 2: the mysteries of the dunes before they are gone forever.
Speaker 2: M I gotta be honest, I never thought of sand
Speaker 2: dunes moving as because of climate change. I thought that's
Speaker 2: what like sand dunes do when you have hurricane force
Speaker 2: winds there year round.
Speaker 4: Yeah, and I don't think they would disappear, but I
Speaker 4: guess going into.
Speaker 2: The water maybe yeah, maybe maybe. Now let's talk about
Speaker 2: the antartic Antarctic fun Guy, which, all right, many micro
Speaker 2: organisms and extremophiles. No, no, not those types of files.
Speaker 2: Extremophiles meaning an organism that lives in extreme environments. Good
Speaker 2: cult members have been discovered throughout Antarctica, including an endemic
Speaker 2: species of fung guy. Although The fun guy typically flourish
Speaker 2: in warm wooded regions. This Antarctic fun guy survives in
Speaker 2: freezing conditions by feasting on the centuries old wooden huts
Speaker 2: abandoned by the first explorers. Okay, another type of fungi,
Speaker 2: fung Guy, has been discovered gorging on the petroleum leaking
Speaker 2: from fuel containers left by explorers. Scientists are studying these
Speaker 2: fascinating creatures to see that the fungus could be used
Speaker 2: to clean up larger oil spills around the world. So
Speaker 2: we got some of this fungus that is growing on
Speaker 2: basically the wooden huts from the late eighteen hundred's early
Speaker 2: nineteen hundred explorers, and then we have this other fungus
Speaker 2: that's eating oil. That's incredible.
Speaker 4: That's pretty cool, to be honest with you.
Speaker 2: It is. But I'm also wondering if that fungus can
Speaker 2: only survive in like Arctic climate or antarctic climates, like
Speaker 2: if you were to try to send it. Most likely yeah,
Speaker 2: because yeah, because.
Speaker 4: I mean it would have to evolve to be able
Speaker 4: to eat that.
Speaker 2: It had to have evolution, and that's rapid evolution. Unless
Speaker 2: that type of fungus already existed and was introduced to
Speaker 2: that area and thrived in that way because crude oil. Yeah,
Speaker 2: I don't even wrong. Antarctica has tons of crude oil
Speaker 2: under the surface. But for this fungus to be on
Speaker 2: the surface eating leftover crude oil left by these cruise
Speaker 2: and stuff, you're talking about a fungus that.
Speaker 4: Really came with them.
Speaker 3: Honestly, it would have had been introduced because everything is frozen,
Speaker 3: so it would have had been brought with them at
Speaker 3: some point and had contact with another location and then
Speaker 3: had to adapt itself to be able to survive.
Speaker 2: That's the only thing that makes sense, right, because I
Speaker 2: mean in Antarctica, there's no way that a fungus was like,
Speaker 2: all right, they introduced crude oil to the ice. Twenty
Speaker 2: years later there's this new type of fungus that's just
Speaker 2: eating this shit. Like that's not how quick.
Speaker 4: I mean able to travel.
Speaker 3: They had to travel the distance with open containers everything else.
Speaker 3: So yeah, it's likely it came from another location and
Speaker 3: then adapted itself into that environment to thrive.
Speaker 2: And survive, genetically mutate itself to eat it. I got you,
Speaker 2: I got you, all right. So now let's talk about
Speaker 2: ancient meteorites. Antarctica is a gold field of meteorites. Although
Speaker 2: meteorites can fall all over the Earth, they are easier
Speaker 2: to find an Antarctica as the cold, dry can nditions
Speaker 2: preserve the rocky fragments. The dark. Meteorites are also easier
Speaker 2: to spot in the stark white surface of the ice,
Speaker 2: and they are almost always extraterrestrial rocks, as few rocks
Speaker 2: from the natural form naturally on the ice sheets of Antarctica.
Speaker 2: The East Antarctic is particularly right for meteorite findings as
Speaker 2: the massive ice sheet has stayed still long. Yeah, has
Speaker 2: stayed still long enough to have its top layer evaporated
Speaker 2: by sunlight and strong winds. This reveals the old, older
Speaker 2: ice and huge concentrations of meteorites. There have been more
Speaker 2: than twenty thousand extraterrestrial meteorite samples collected since nineteen seventy six.
Speaker 4: That's a lot.
Speaker 2: That is insane. In twenty thirteen, a team of Japanese
Speaker 2: and Belgian scientists discovered the largest meteorite found in East
Speaker 2: Antarctica in twenty five years. The extraterrestrial rock weighed in
Speaker 2: incredible eighteen kilograms. Wow, so that's a let's see, it's
Speaker 2: two point two kilos per or two point two pounds
Speaker 2: per kilo, So we're talking somewhere around a forty pound meteorite.
Speaker 2: That's wild. The team searched for meteorites for forty days,
Speaker 2: finding four hundred and twenty five of them with a
Speaker 2: collective weight of seventy five kilograms. The discoveries included a
Speaker 2: piece of the asteroid Vesta and a meteorite from Mars.
Speaker 3: So my thought is if that is, since they have
Speaker 3: so many what if over the last millennia they've had
Speaker 3: so many meteorites drop that the bacteria and the different
Speaker 3: organisms that they're finding is actually extraterrestrial from Mars and
Speaker 3: other planets, and they've hubbed there and when the ice
Speaker 3: was thinner, or over time with the mixing the salt water,
Speaker 3: it became thinner and those organisms were able to seep
Speaker 3: down into those pockets of lakes and then freeze back
Speaker 3: over and be able to mutate and survive. And what
Speaker 3: if they're actually seeing life forms from another planet that
Speaker 3: is hidden underneath the ice.
Speaker 2: Now, I mean, why not?
Speaker 3: It makes more sense because I mean it's at least
Speaker 3: to me. I don't know how anyone else feels. But
Speaker 3: when I'm listening to this, that's my thought process. Off,
Speaker 3: there's that many twenty thousand meteorite samples collected just since
Speaker 3: nineteen seventy six. What if in the last just say,
Speaker 3: one million years, how many places, how many have dropped
Speaker 3: in that location that have seeped down over time, because
Speaker 3: some of the pockets they've estimated are like one point
Speaker 3: two million and further back. So what wagers that they
Speaker 3: didn't create themselves down there?
Speaker 2: What's the chances that there's some type of living, bacterial
Speaker 2: or single cell organism on one of these rocks that
Speaker 2: somehow survived breaking through our atmosphere in the high temperatures,
Speaker 2: and then when they got to Antarctica mutated themselves to
Speaker 2: survive on Earth.
Speaker 3: I mean inside the rock itself, like it's just been
Speaker 3: chilling there and then being eroded by the wind and
Speaker 3: everything else with the freeze, thought weathering that happens consistently there,
Speaker 3: at least to me, that's my thought process. I heard
Speaker 3: a theory a while back when they were drilling the
Speaker 3: big ice holes, like the big tubes. Yeah, a lot
Speaker 3: of people were concerned because they did find an alien
Speaker 3: species organism is what they kind of labeled it as
Speaker 3: that potentially it would be a thing where we release
Speaker 3: this organism into our atmosphere or it gets life pretty
Speaker 3: much outside of what it's been freezing as and it
Speaker 3: takes over, kind of like the mirror bacteria that.
Speaker 4: We talked about.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, so I thought.
Speaker 4: You know, I've heard the theory. So it's kind of
Speaker 4: kind of weird.
Speaker 2: That's terrifying and cool at the same time.
Speaker 4: It is.
Speaker 3: It is terrifying to think of, because what if whatever
Speaker 3: it is is like the mirror bacteria and we can't
Speaker 3: stop it and it takes over kind of a vibe
Speaker 3: and kills the life forms around it.
Speaker 2: The other issue that I'm having with this statement here
Speaker 2: to say that they found one from the Vesta the asteroid. Okay,
Speaker 2: all right, so the asteroids flying through space got hit
Speaker 2: by some sort of space trash or some other meteorite.
Speaker 2: A piece broke off and landed in Antarctica. With you,
Speaker 2: I could put those pieces together. How the fuck did
Speaker 2: something come from Mars? When did Mars start shooting rocks
Speaker 2: at Us? I must have missed that in my fucking
Speaker 2: physical science class.
Speaker 3: I'm wondering if the bacteria life that they just were
Speaker 3: talking about last year or the year before that they
Speaker 3: found on Mars. If the way that they described it,
Speaker 3: I feel like they potentially already know what it is
Speaker 3: and where to look for it, and that's how they
Speaker 3: were able to search for it was because of Antarctica.
Speaker 2: So they don't know specifically what type, but they have
Speaker 2: a really good working theory on it because there's only
Speaker 2: certain types of bacteria that eat the rock, and that's that's.
Speaker 4: The criteria that they just found though.
Speaker 2: Right exact as.
Speaker 3: More sense that they would know at least a theory
Speaker 3: or have an idea of what they're looking for to prove.
Speaker 3: Because if they're saying that that meteorite came from Mars
Speaker 3: without a shadow.
Speaker 4: Of a doubt, which is then how do you know
Speaker 4: that bro So, then.
Speaker 3: That means that they already know the samples to be taken,
Speaker 3: saying that this is a Mars meteorite and the bacteria.
Speaker 3: Potentially they're already showing that there is life forms that
Speaker 3: can survive here aka mutate, So that means they should
Speaker 3: be able to survive in Mars, and they're probably already there.
Speaker 3: That means that we can make the next step to
Speaker 3: cultivating and going to Mars.
Speaker 2: And I gotta kind of side with our guests that
Speaker 2: we had on last night as a matter of fact,
Speaker 2: on this one, because the only way.
Speaker 3: That we've already been at Mars and then we have
Speaker 3: an entire base system there.
Speaker 2: I don't know about the base system, but that also
Speaker 2: kind of stands to reason as of this conversation here,
Speaker 2: because the only way that a logical scientists would be
Speaker 2: able to take a sample and say, ah, this is
Speaker 2: from Mars. We know that because we have Mars samples,
Speaker 2: we have to already have Mars samples on Earth that
Speaker 2: we can compare it against to make such a bold claim.
Speaker 2: So how do we get those Mars samples? Because the
Speaker 2: Mars rover allegedly is still there, So how do we
Speaker 2: get samples at home?
Speaker 4: Samples?
Speaker 2: How?
Speaker 3: I thought that they had two different ones, the one
Speaker 3: that has stayed there and the one that came back.
Speaker 2: I never heard about the one that came back.
Speaker 3: I'm gonna have to look it up. We're gonna have
Speaker 3: to do well. Actually, we've already been talking about doing
Speaker 3: an entire series on the different planets anyways in the
Speaker 3: Solar System and black black holes and different stuff like that.
Speaker 3: So we're gonna have to dive in more about Mars,
Speaker 3: because there's a lot of information happening with Mars, especially with.
Speaker 4: Elon bringing up more and more.
Speaker 3: But I remember back in two thousand and nine, people
Speaker 3: were talking about volunteering to go to Mars. It's a
Speaker 3: huge thing that was talked about, and they were going
Speaker 3: to be putting an entire Mars station on the planet.
Speaker 2: So they were looking like fifty volunteers. The last I heard,
Speaker 2: they had like twelve people that are pretty much signed
Speaker 2: their lives away.
Speaker 4: That lady one hundred percent, she's what like thirty or something, twenty.
Speaker 2: Or so, well, she went through Elon. This was this
Speaker 2: was before Tesla and Elon started that Mars Day.
Speaker 3: They had a whole bunch of people that had potentially
Speaker 3: talked about going. So I actually, I will say mister
Speaker 3: Fuller definitely didn't have a lot of information. That was
Speaker 3: our guest last night, And I don't doubt it at
Speaker 3: this point. I think that space exploration is a lot
Speaker 3: more advanced than they're letting on.
Speaker 4: Oh yeah, And I wouldn't doubt at this point now.
Speaker 2: Like, and that's the thing, I to your point about
Speaker 2: how they got samples back to Earth from Mars. I
Speaker 2: was unaware of that. That was okay, yeah, that's mind
Speaker 2: blowing me because like you heard about what happened with
Speaker 2: those moon rocks, right, no so, and there are those
Speaker 2: that will say that the sam of moon rocks are
Speaker 2: all fake. Except there was this one time, and I
Speaker 2: want to say it was the late nineties or early
Speaker 2: two thousands, this intern at NASA broke into the vault,
Speaker 2: took all of these rocks from the Moon, brought them
Speaker 2: to a motel where he laid them out on the
Speaker 2: bed and him and his girlfriend had sex on them
Speaker 2: because he wanted to give her sex. That was by
Speaker 2: his own emission. Out of this world. You know, it's
Speaker 2: not always men, but also when it is men, they
Speaker 2: do some real dumb shit. And most of the rocks
Speaker 2: had to be discarded because it was contaminated by human
Speaker 2: samples for lack of better words, But okay, that makes
Speaker 2: sense to me. We know that we have been to
Speaker 2: the Moon multiple times, they have brought back rocks, all
Speaker 2: these things. Mars, on the other hand, I was unaware
Speaker 2: that we had brought back samples from Mars, and if
Speaker 2: we have, that would also stand a reason that there
Speaker 2: was in fact a Mars base, a Mars mission that
Speaker 2: we either A don't know about or B they possibly
Speaker 2: already have a base set up there.
Speaker 3: The potential biosignature is what they're talking about on a rock.
Speaker 3: I am trying to find out if it's actually been
Speaker 3: brought back.
Speaker 4: I know that they've collected it. They've the rover collected it.
Speaker 3: Discovering ancient life on Mars potentially possibility that Mars was
Speaker 3: once played a host to living organisms has been a long,
Speaker 3: steady debate among scientists. So the sample was taken and
Speaker 3: collected in July of twenty twenty four. So it's from
Speaker 3: a crater that's twenty eight miles wide in the basin.
Speaker 2: So in twenty twenty four last year they got this sample.
Speaker 2: Yet somehow this team in twenty thirteen found a piece
Speaker 2: of an asteroid from Vesta and a meteorite from Mars.
Speaker 2: You see this don't be lining up.
Speaker 3: When we see features like this in the sediment of Earth.
Speaker 3: These minerals are often byproduct of bio of microbial metabolisms
Speaker 3: that are consuming organic matter and making these minerals as
Speaker 3: a result of those reactions. So what I'm trying to
Speaker 3: understand is so the rocks that they found had clay, silt,
Speaker 3: organic carbon, sulfur, rust, oxidize, iron, and phosphates phosphor. Again,
Speaker 3: so I'm trying to find out if they actually is
Speaker 3: the rover itself able to break down what the samples
Speaker 3: it has to transmit back.
Speaker 4: I don't know. I actually need to look into this,
Speaker 4: but I think that on.
Speaker 2: The road they have like not a whole lab set
Speaker 2: up by any means, but they have a certain scanning
Speaker 2: device to where they're able to like break down what
Speaker 2: the chemical composition of it or a mineral composition of
Speaker 2: the sample is. And I get this too, but again,
Speaker 2: how the fuck did a rock from Mars end up
Speaker 2: in Antarctica? First off, how do they know it's from Mars?
Speaker 3: And second it's actually brought up Antarctica, it says the
Speaker 3: ancient Martian meteorite found in Antarctica in nineteen eighty four.
Speaker 3: What caused a stir when researchers suggested it contain microbial
Speaker 3: fossils from Mars. Later research determined that the space rock
Speaker 3: organic material did not have biological origins, but instead formed
Speaker 3: through geological interactions between the rock and water. So they're
Speaker 3: saying that it wasn't from Mars. For now though, that
Speaker 3: these people in their colleagues limited in how much further
Speaker 3: analysis they can Kentuck remotely, so they don't. The Rover
Speaker 3: mission is originally designed to gather several rock samples that
Speaker 3: will eventually be brought back to Earth for future missions
Speaker 3: for further analysis.
Speaker 4: So as of right now it is.
Speaker 2: Not but that eighty four, this was in twenty thirteen.
Speaker 3: No, they're talking about the rock samples that they're gathering
Speaker 3: right now.
Speaker 2: So they haven't rover.
Speaker 3: They have, allegedly they haven't technically brought it back somehow.
Speaker 2: In eighty four they thought they found on Mars rock.
Speaker 2: Now in twenty thirteen they say they found a Mars rock,
Speaker 2: and again my main question to.
Speaker 3: That is, but now they're saying that it's not a MA,
Speaker 3: that it's not one as of twenty twenty four, I
Speaker 3: know because of this article they're stating that it is not.
Speaker 3: But it's interesting because they say carbon and the phosphorus
Speaker 3: are key ingredients to create life, is critical for life,
Speaker 3: including DNA. So they are one hundred percent of the
Speaker 3: belief that Mars does inhabit life forms. They just haven't
Speaker 3: found them. Well, they have been able to study them.
Speaker 3: One hundred percent because the rover's still out there. So
Speaker 3: not to detract here, ry everyone.
Speaker 2: These same sciences are saying that a single cell organism
Speaker 2: on Mars is not life, but somehow a heartbeat inside
Speaker 2: of a woman isn't life. It's it's crazy how the
Speaker 2: science is only science when they want it to be science. Really,
Speaker 2: we're going to we're not detracting.
Speaker 4: You just totally shifted from Mars. I'm saying abortion.
Speaker 7: No.
Speaker 2: Look, I'm just saying, if that's a life form, then
Speaker 2: how is that not a life form? But anyway, ok,
Speaker 2: moving on, and if hypothetically lost city, it's still about
Speaker 2: the Mars rock. Okay, hypothetically, if there was a rock
Speaker 2: from Mars found in Antarctica, I'm still curious how the
Speaker 2: fuck it got there unless Marst hit.
Speaker 4: All right, the aliens are there and they brought it
Speaker 4: with them.
Speaker 2: That's what I'm trying to an accident. What is their
Speaker 2: narrative because they believe that aliens aren't real, right, they.
Speaker 4: Tell us something down They told us that they were.
Speaker 3: They released it during the pandemic, and then they were
Speaker 3: pissed because Millennials were just like cool, bro, I mean,
Speaker 3: we are whatever we already all know, and they were like, oh,
Speaker 3: they like felt some time. The government was pissed that
Speaker 3: people were just like cool.
Speaker 2: So and now they're doing all this disclosure stuff and
Speaker 2: it's like, Okay, in the course of five years, y'all
Speaker 2: have gone from saying the Aliens don't exist to they
Speaker 2: totally exist, to now we have all this verified evidence
Speaker 2: of them. And now you're telling me that you don't
Speaker 2: have contact with them and you don't know who they
Speaker 2: are and you don't know what they want. Again, I'm
Speaker 2: just I don't believe you. Bro.
Speaker 3: Well, that's like what mister Fuller was saying last night
Speaker 3: with a Solar Warden that's the name of his books.
Speaker 3: But that's actually a program, is that they've been in contact,
Speaker 3: that they've been having offensive and defensive military strategy and
Speaker 3: research and discovery teams doing this for decades.
Speaker 2: So right, So now continuing on here Aliens, Nazis and
Speaker 2: the Lost City, now we're getting into what some people
Speaker 2: might call myths but others would call facts just facts.
Speaker 2: Antarctica is a breeding ground for mystery, and it's had
Speaker 2: its fair share of conspiracy theories over the years, which
Speaker 2: is why we're talking about it here. On the cult
Speaker 2: of conspiracy, from the elongated skulls and strange pyramids to
Speaker 2: alien spaceships, bizarre structures, and a giant staircase, which we're
Speaker 2: going to talk about. Yes, many people believe that Antarctica
Speaker 2: once housed extraterrestrial life or still does. Every year three
Speaker 2: or there are dozens of reports of UFO sightings, while
Speaker 2: Google Earth has captured some unusual activities said to be
Speaker 2: the work of a millions. It's a hotspot for alien hunters,
Speaker 2: So keep your eyes peeled for any bizarre green lights
Speaker 2: in the sky. Which I didn't know the green lights,
Speaker 2: and I thought that was like the Northern lights or
Speaker 2: what's it called Ora borealis. I thought that was the
Speaker 2: Northern lights, not in Antarctica.
Speaker 4: I don't know, I be honest. I think maybe there's
Speaker 4: both on them.
Speaker 2: The mystery of Antarctica continues deep below its surface, where
Speaker 2: no one has gone before. It's said that the lost
Speaker 2: city of Atlantis is hidden beneath the kilometers of ice. Yeah,
Speaker 2: I've heard that a time or two, which going off
Speaker 2: of Plato's story, that's complete opposite direction. But whatever, the
Speaker 2: city would have thrived when Antarctica was warm, tropical region,
Speaker 2: and would be it would have been buried under the
Speaker 2: ice age or after the ice age froze the continent.
Speaker 2: It's highly possible that a civilization exists in Antarctica, but
Speaker 2: it's yet to be proven that the continent is the
Speaker 2: site of the fabled lost city. It's also theorized that
Speaker 2: the Nazis used underground Antarctica as a secret hideaway, and
Speaker 2: some people believe that Hitler fled there after the war. Off. Yeah,
Speaker 2: some people believe that he went to Antarctica. There's like
Speaker 2: fifty Nazi camps throughout South America, most of them in Argentina.
Speaker 3: I really do believe he went to South America. I
Speaker 3: don't think he actually died.
Speaker 2: No. Even the skull of the body that they said
Speaker 2: was Hitler's, it's later been discovered that was a woman's skull,
Speaker 2: So it's yeah.
Speaker 3: The Hitlery Channel did a really cool whole breakdown of that.
Speaker 2: Oh did you hear that Adolf Hitler just won an
Speaker 2: election in Uganda. There's a politician whose dad named him
Speaker 2: Adolf Hitler, not you, Naisy, I forget what the name is.
Speaker 2: He's a black guy who you know, his dad just
Speaker 2: thought that was a really strong name of a leader
Speaker 2: and he just won a local election.
Speaker 4: It was my kid's pediatric surgeon.
Speaker 3: His last name is Adolph, and when he told me that,
Speaker 3: I was like, ooh, I'm not going to say nothing.
Speaker 3: So then we called him count Olof. He sells some
Speaker 3: type of way. But I was like, look, it's better
Speaker 3: than Adolf.
Speaker 2: That is a step. Uh.
Speaker 3: Cro what is with doctors having the craziest names? Like
Speaker 3: we got like Coco, we got yeah, doctor Coco. We
Speaker 3: got Adolph, we got Tyson. We have all sorts of random,
Speaker 3: crazy names. And I'm like, what, I.
Speaker 2: Don't think I've ever had a doctor with a crazy name.
Speaker 4: Seriously, seriously, I could. I could sit here, Bowie. I mean,
Speaker 4: there's lots of interesting names.
Speaker 2: The closest one was doctor Wagaspack, which honestly is not
Speaker 2: Waggy's back. Yeah, but that's also a pretty common name
Speaker 2: in middle school. My vice principal's name was Miss Wagspack.
Speaker 4: Mm hmm, all right, moving on to Hitler.
Speaker 2: Uh, let's see, it's highly possible that it's area the one.
Speaker 2: Hitler did have a passion for the occult, and he
Speaker 2: was searching for something in Antarctica. The Nazi Germans built
Speaker 2: a station in Antarctica. However, it was a bandoned seventy
Speaker 2: years ago after the crew were poisoned by polar bear meat. Mmmmm,
Speaker 2: there's a we're gonna unpack that one together here in
Speaker 2: a big good cult members, because seventy years ago it
Speaker 2: was abandoned. Kind of new swabiland is what it was called.
Speaker 2: And polar bear meat, here's the deal. Polar bear meat
Speaker 2: is really good. The only section of the polar bear
Speaker 2: you can't eat is the liver because you'll overdose on
Speaker 2: vitamin A and it will kill you. I have a
Speaker 2: hard time believing that the Nazis didn't know that, seeing
Speaker 2: as how that's a well understood fact by most Inuit tribes.
Speaker 2: But okay, sure the Nazis all ate polar bear liver
Speaker 2: and died. Clearly what took place. Although the theory has
Speaker 2: been disproven, hey, it doesn't stop the speculation on what
Speaker 2: lies beneath Antarctica's mysterious surface. The Great White Continent is
Speaker 2: the most baffling and unexplained corner on Earth, and despite
Speaker 2: the dedication efforts of scientists around the world, we may
Speaker 2: never know all of its secrets. The Great White Continent
Speaker 2: sounds pretty but anyway, so this was a short list
Speaker 2: of fourteen very mysterious things about Antarctica. You know, just
Speaker 2: some of the mysteries, but not all of them by
Speaker 2: a long shot. So now we're gonna shift over to
Speaker 2: this quick little vidya here shout out to Secret Origins
Speaker 2: YouTube channel and their Antarctica twenty twenty five, the forbidden
Speaker 2: continent that holds Earth's true history.
Speaker 3: This entire it's an hour and a half long and
Speaker 3: is fantastic. I suggest everybody go and watch this.
Speaker 2: Absolutely so let's learn about this one together.
Speaker 8: Known as ice ages, the last major ice age began
Speaker 8: around two point six million years ago and reached its
Speaker 8: peak about twenty thousand years ago. It ended roughly twelve
Speaker 8: thousand years ago, marking the beginning of our current warm period.
Speaker 8: During these cycles, entire regions of the Earth can become
Speaker 8: unrecognizable land once green becomes covered in snow and ice,
Speaker 8: oceans rise and fall, and species adapt, migrate or disappear.
Speaker 8: Antarctica's transformation from a lush landscape to an ice covered
Speaker 8: wasteland is one of the clearest examples of this natural cycle,
Speaker 8: But there is another factor that may have played a role.
Speaker 8: In this dramatic shift, the movement of Earth's axis known
Speaker 8: as true polar wander or crustal displacement. This theory suggests
Speaker 8: that the entire outer shell of the Earth can move
Speaker 8: over the inner layers, shifting the position of the geographic poles.
Speaker 8: Unlike the more gradual changes of axial tilt or precession,
Speaker 8: true polar wander could happen more rapidly, pulling entire continents
Speaker 8: into new climate zones. If such an event occurred in
Speaker 8: Earth's past, it could explain how Antarctica moved from a
Speaker 8: temperate zone to the south pole. While this theory remains
Speaker 8: debated in scientific circles, there is evidence that the Earth's
Speaker 8: crust has indeed shifted in the past. Some studies of
Speaker 8: rock formations and ancient shorelines suggest that parts of the
Speaker 8: Earth's surface have relocated over time.
Speaker 2: All Right, So basically this was talking about how Antarctica
Speaker 2: formed into what we know today, right from what was
Speaker 2: once a very tropical rainforest type of conversation to the barren,
Speaker 2: frozen tundra that it is today. Now, part of that
Speaker 2: ties into this next article that we were going to
Speaker 2: read talking it's from ocean wide expeditions shout out the
Speaker 2: ancient fossil forest in Antarctica, which I know some people
Speaker 2: are going to say the fossils don't exist. However, none
Speaker 2: of them are willing to acknowledge that petrified wood is fake.
Speaker 2: It's not. Petrified wood is absolutely a thing that's fossilized
Speaker 2: plant material. So why do so many people believe that
Speaker 2: fossilized animal material don't exist. I don't understand it, but it's.
Speaker 4: Actually a real thing. People really don't believe fossils exist.
Speaker 2: Jonathan does not believe that fossils are real. There's tons
Speaker 2: of people that believe the Earth is only six thousand
Speaker 2: years old, like a massive, massive number of people that
Speaker 2: argue that the Earth might and they're being very generous
Speaker 2: saying that the Earth is about eight thousand years old.
Speaker 3: Oh well, I have a whole bunch of fossils in
Speaker 3: my home. Yeah, I have a ton of them. Actually, so,
Speaker 3: and some of.
Speaker 2: These people believe that's for religious conviction reasons, which like, fine, cool,
Speaker 2: you mean written history might be only six thousand years old,
Speaker 2: and they're like, no, that's the Earth, and it's like okay, cool.
Speaker 2: There's these people that they're called Young Earth creationists and
Speaker 2: they believe that the earth is ten thousand years old. Maybe. Meanwhile,
Speaker 2: there's remains from dogger Land that date back to human
Speaker 2: civilization fourteen thousand BC, and they just like don't acknowledge that.
Speaker 2: That's the thing.
Speaker 3: I mean, I have bones, bone, sharp bone, vertebrate that
Speaker 3: we're created in necklaces that are stamped at ten thousand
Speaker 3: years old.
Speaker 2: Now, so as far as the fossil conversation goes, I
Speaker 2: can at least appreciate one standpoint of it. Right, So,
Speaker 2: there is a lot of fossils that have been recreated, right.
Speaker 4: So like I dug them up with my own hands.
Speaker 2: No, no, no, hear me out. Okay, there has never been
Speaker 2: a one hundred percent intact fossilized remain of an animal
Speaker 2: ever discovered. Okay, they're the best we got is ninety
Speaker 2: eight percent. And when you think about this, let's say
Speaker 2: the giant t rex or something like that, there's like
Speaker 2: one toe knuckle bone that wasn't recovered. So they're saying, oh, yeah,
Speaker 2: one percent, So it must not be real. Clearly, it's
Speaker 2: all made up and fake and gay I cult members.
Speaker 4: I do not agree with that, not even a little bit.
Speaker 4: If you're wondering. My standpoint on this that is nope.
Speaker 2: And there's also fossils that have been discovered to be
Speaker 2: hoaxes confirmed like for instance, we were just watching land
Speaker 2: before time. The long neck is not a dinosaur that
Speaker 2: actually ever existed.
Speaker 4: Say that.
Speaker 3: The carbon dating has always been a really interesting thing.
Speaker 3: I have an entire book about how to carbon date.
Speaker 3: I'm not gonna lie to you. It was kind of
Speaker 3: difficult for me to understand some of it because I
Speaker 3: was like, my lot my brain was kind of not
Speaker 3: working when I was looking at the process of how
Speaker 3: they actually determine it and everything like that. I will
Speaker 3: say though, that there is one hundred percent real fossils.
Speaker 4: Yeah, and there is. I know people that have dug
Speaker 4: up a lot of things.
Speaker 2: Carbon dating used to be a very very flawed science
Speaker 2: right in the eighties and the early nineties when it
Speaker 2: was like they were just that was the big talking
Speaker 2: point for a lot of the scientific community. Yeah, it
Speaker 2: was very flawed because a lot of the issue was
Speaker 2: if you did not know the whereabouts of the sample,
Speaker 2: then how do you know if like, for instance, this
Speaker 2: animal died and its bones were just below the soil
Speaker 2: surface and that forest that it died in had a
Speaker 2: massive forest fire that fucked up the entire carbon in
Speaker 2: that area, and that threw off your judgment by about
Speaker 2: a thousand years. Okay, I can understand that. But they
Speaker 2: have made so many advancements in radiocarbon dating in the
Speaker 2: last three decades. It is not as flawed of a
Speaker 2: science as it once was when people started poking holes
Speaker 2: in it.
Speaker 3: I will have to have my good friend Shane. I
Speaker 3: call him Shane and Bobini, but Shane, come on, and
Speaker 3: he actually teaches all across the country different different things
Speaker 3: about history. He's been on many, many, many dig sites.
Speaker 3: He is highly intelligent when it comes to this, and
Speaker 3: he could totally break down everything there is when talking
Speaker 3: about this. And I know a couple of different people
Speaker 3: that do. I know quite a few people actually that
Speaker 3: do dig sites all across America.
Speaker 2: So you've told me about your boy Shane. I would
Speaker 2: love to have him on the show for so many reasons.
Speaker 3: Seems so smart. He makes traditional ad flint napping. Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 3: he does, which I love.
Speaker 2: Uh what not Dusty Rhodes is it Dusty Daniels? I
Speaker 2: think is his YouTube channel? This dude Marine Vet combat
Speaker 2: Marine Vet he's got a bunch of Nordic rooms before. Yeah,
Speaker 2: this dude just goes into the woods with his little
Speaker 2: flint napping kit and he just gets after, makes weapons,
Speaker 2: makes traps. He is a true survivalist, but not with
Speaker 2: any of the modern amenities. Like he's just as true
Speaker 2: to form as humans have been since the beginning of time.
Speaker 3: Yeah, Shean is incredibly intelligent and has done all different
Speaker 3: aspects of archaeology and knows a lot about a lot
Speaker 3: of things and also is a big history nerd and
Speaker 3: buff and knows the time stamps and everything and how
Speaker 3: to do all that. And it's just he's very intelligent.
Speaker 3: And we did a dig together and I learned a
Speaker 3: ton from him. That was my first dig, and so
Speaker 3: I learned a ton from him. And yeah, yeah, you'd
Speaker 3: be great to have on and disprove. Yeah, the whole
Speaker 3: theory that it's only six husand years old, that's so
Speaker 3: wild to me.
Speaker 2: It's crazy because these same people that will say that
Speaker 2: dinosaurs never existed will make up stories to how crude
Speaker 2: oil became a thing, right, and then they will also
Speaker 2: make up stories to where like the moon rocks that
Speaker 2: they sent off for testing, the reason why they believe
Speaker 2: we never went to the moon. Is because these moon
Speaker 2: rocks allegedly brought back, got sent off for samples, and
Speaker 2: come to find out it was actually a piece of
Speaker 2: petrified wood. And then whenever the I think it was
Speaker 2: France and Russia separately got these pieces from Florida and
Speaker 2: they're like, hey, this is not moon, this is petrified wood,
Speaker 2: and the NASA the places like, oh, I'm sorry, we
Speaker 2: sent you the wrong sample. Are bad. Never sent them
Speaker 2: a moon rock which pokes holes into the moon narrative.
Speaker 2: I understand this, okay, I mean I could track some
Speaker 2: of this, but they'll acknowledge that petrified wood is real,
Speaker 2: but somehow fossilized boones not. And I don't understand how
Speaker 2: you make that jump in your head.
Speaker 3: But the ice in Antarctica, oh think millions of years old.
Speaker 2: They found a mammoth, an entire intact mammoth with grass
Speaker 2: still in its mouth. But they will not acknowledge that
Speaker 2: dinosaurs are real. It's it. I don't understand it. I mean,
Speaker 2: to be fair, mammoths walk the earth. When the pyramids
Speaker 2: that geese were being built, I get this too, but
Speaker 2: like there's not much mental hoops. You gotta jump through
Speaker 2: to see that A plus B will see on this.
Speaker 2: But there are some people.
Speaker 4: You know what, Let them. I'm I'm good with it.
Speaker 4: Believe what you want to believe. But I will I
Speaker 4: do believe a lot of the science.
Speaker 3: I will say that they can manipulate, and they have manipulated,
Speaker 3: and they will continue to manipulate science into the narratives
Speaker 3: that they want us to know and understand.
Speaker 2: But we know the Smithsonian destroys things. We know that
Speaker 2: they had destroyed tons of fossils, tons of giant bones. Yes,
Speaker 2: so that's the other part of it. I understand. At
Speaker 2: least I can appreciate the the platform of saying that
Speaker 2: fossil remains are mostly fake. And how like when you
Speaker 2: go to a museum, you're not looking at an actual fossil,
Speaker 2: You're looking at a plaster mold of fossils. So this
Speaker 2: also ties into the narrative of wait, if it's not real,
Speaker 2: why wouldn't they display the real fossils? And it's like,
Speaker 2: do you have you any idea how fragile an actual
Speaker 2: fossil is. If you look at it wrong, it's gonna
Speaker 2: crumble in your hands.
Speaker 4: But I they do display them.
Speaker 2: Not in the Smithsonian anyway. There are certain museums where
Speaker 2: they'll have like a set.
Speaker 3: Yeah, there is certain museums that display real fossils.
Speaker 2: Yeah, but once it kill me. What's those? I forget
Speaker 2: what they're called. The something pods, not arthropods. These like rocks.
Speaker 2: So you crack open and you see like the spiral
Speaker 2: snail looking fossils.
Speaker 4: I have like ten of those at my house.
Speaker 2: They'll acknowledge that those are real.
Speaker 4: Stations.
Speaker 3: There's a guy actually that his entire TikTok and instagram
Speaker 3: is he goes all along the coast of England, Scotland
Speaker 3: and Ireland and goes and finds them and cracks them
Speaker 3: open on live TikTok like. He will find one, hold
Speaker 3: one be like Luke and then cracks it open and
Speaker 3: you see it visually, see it with your own eyebols.
Speaker 2: And they'll acknowledge that that's real. But somehow dinosaurs aren't.
Speaker 4: I mean, I have four three four megalodon teeth at
Speaker 4: my house.
Speaker 2: They'll acknowledge that alligators and sharks are still real. But
Speaker 2: I don't know, I don't understand it. Not trying to
Speaker 2: throw shit out.
Speaker 3: To this ancient forest because you know it just seems
Speaker 3: like it would be.
Speaker 4: It just would be magical.
Speaker 2: Yeah, the ancient fossil forest of Antarctica. Let's get into
Speaker 2: it here, the finding of ancient Antarctic forests. Over a
Speaker 2: hundred years ago, Robert Falcon Scott's expedition to Antarctica discovered
Speaker 2: fossils of plants on the Beard Moor glacier. I like
Speaker 2: that glacier less than five hundred kilometers or three hundred
Speaker 2: and ten miles from the South Pole. Edward Wilson, who
Speaker 2: was the expedition's chief scientist, recorded the findings in his diary,
Speaker 2: stating that most of the bigger leaves were like beach
Speaker 2: leaves in shape and ventilation venation.
Speaker 3: In that video that we just watched, the YouTube video,
Speaker 3: they actually show actual pictures of what they found. So
Speaker 3: just to wow, just a shout out, like in the
Speaker 3: first couple of minutes, say, we'll actually show you the
Speaker 3: real pictures of it.
Speaker 2: Jeez. All right. So, at the time these findings were
Speaker 2: dismissed by scientists as misidentifications, their significance overlooked for more
Speaker 2: than one hundred years. But when you set foot on
Speaker 2: the Antarctic Peninsula or Ross Ice Shelf, for region. Today,
Speaker 2: many scientific advances have proven that you are in fact
Speaker 2: walking in ancient, once thriving forests. So let's talk about
Speaker 2: Antarctic coniferous trees. In a small part of Alexander Island
Speaker 2: on the west coast of Antarctica Peninsula, ancient fossil trees
Speaker 2: that date back one hundred million years can be found,
Speaker 2: with logs up to seven meters high still found standing upright.
Speaker 2: The roots of these coniferous trees are still attached to
Speaker 2: the carbonaceous soil. Excuse me, they were deposits today. Their
Speaker 2: root systems indicate that these trees thrived on the rich
Speaker 2: plains along large meandering rivers. However, the coarse sand that
Speaker 2: bruises the trunks showed the power of floods in the
Speaker 2: area that eventually covered the whole plain in thick sediment.
Speaker 2: Fossilized leaves found in the areas show that there was
Speaker 2: a large diversity of plants that once lived there. In fact,
Speaker 2: the area was dominated by evergreen species and had a
Speaker 2: temperate rainforest at about seventy five degrees south wow. While
Speaker 2: today this latitude is cold and frozen. One hundred million
Speaker 2: years ago, despite a winter that witnessed around seventy days
Speaker 2: of darkness. The forests were thriving in much warmer conditions.
Speaker 2: The warmth came from the size of the land mass,
Speaker 2: with Gondwana Land yep Gonvarn Land keeping away the cold
Speaker 2: currents that today encircle Antarctica. Researchers have found that the
Speaker 2: floodplains in the area were covered with ferns, small potto carps,
Speaker 2: and conifers. On the coastal plain, the open canopy forests
Speaker 2: were thick with conifers and ferns.
Speaker 3: Wow, I would love to be there and actually dig
Speaker 3: some of this up.
Speaker 4: That would be so freaking cool.
Speaker 2: It would be so cool, But also it would be
Speaker 2: so fucking cold, so cold.
Speaker 3: It reminds me of Avatar. I just feel like this.
Speaker 3: It's an Avatar.
Speaker 2: It's Avatar under like an ice snow globe.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I really do. I actually super love that entire
Speaker 3: world that he created.
Speaker 2: I love it. So let's talk about Antarctica's formerly balmy climate,
Speaker 2: unlike today's temperatures in the Antarctic Peninsula. Fossilized leaves found
Speaker 2: in the sandstones and siltstones in the James Ross Basin
Speaker 2: of Antarctic Peninsula region indicate that the mean annual temperatures
Speaker 2: for that area were thirteen to twenty one degrees celsius,
Speaker 2: or what we would call in freedom units fifty five
Speaker 2: to sixty nine degrees fahrenheit.
Speaker 4: It's actually pri legit temperature like.
Speaker 2: That you could very well live and survive and thrive
Speaker 2: and farm with that temperature.
Speaker 4: It's like there's an entire civilization that he once was there.
Speaker 2: I mean possibly. The fossil plants are indicative that the
Speaker 2: area had a warm climate without extended periods of winter
Speaker 2: temperatures below freezing without without wow, along with adequate moisture
Speaker 2: in the air for growth. Okay, so now let's talk
Speaker 2: about the pollen.
Speaker 3: That video that showed the warm cycles and the cold cycles,
Speaker 3: and somehow it warmed way up. That's we're on the
Speaker 3: warm end right now. That's why our earth is warming up.
Speaker 2: Agreed. But then also, and I just had this conversation
Speaker 2: with somebody the other day, as far as the Earth
Speaker 2: goes through cycles of heating and cooling regardless of human interaction.
Speaker 2: Right now, I'm not saying that humans have not contributed,
Speaker 2: but we also need.
Speaker 4: To potentially accelerated the heat cycle.
Speaker 2: Potentially, and I'm being very generous of that, because at
Speaker 2: the same time, in the Medieval Ages, we had the
Speaker 2: Little Ice Age, which is all mass famines throughout Europe
Speaker 2: because all of these crops died for decades and could
Speaker 2: not be farmed because they were just cold as fuck.
Speaker 2: And like, how many movies and literature have we seen
Speaker 2: of the Middle Ages where these dudes in summer we're
Speaker 2: wearing like these thick woolen coats, and it's like, yeah,
Speaker 2: because y'all were living through the Little Ice Age. It
Speaker 2: was always cold, it was always overcast. It's not just
Speaker 2: a thing, right, I would have left that bitch so fast.
Speaker 2: It was worldwide. The entire Earth was experiencing the Little
Speaker 2: Ice Age, and again had nothing to do with human interaction,
Speaker 2: had nothing to do with anything humans are doing. Hell,
Speaker 2: we only got involved in heavy industry arguably within the
Speaker 2: last two hundred years. So it's just the Earth goes
Speaker 2: through these cycles. Currently we are on a warming cycle
Speaker 2: now again, potentially humans had a hand in that. I'm
Speaker 2: I'm person of the belief that it was a drop
Speaker 2: in the bucket as far as the warming goes. Now,
Speaker 2: we're talking about pollution in our air and in our
Speaker 2: soil and in our water. For sure, we did that.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think the big thing for me is the deforitization.
Speaker 3: Cutting down all the trees is causing a huge issue
Speaker 3: because we're not replanting.
Speaker 4: That's the problem.
Speaker 3: We're not really replaying most places, and you're destroying one
Speaker 3: of if not this hop thing that's eating the carbon
Speaker 3: that helps it disappear and stuff.
Speaker 2: So, but carbon is not inherently bad for the.
Speaker 3: Earth, No, but it talks about how it rises up
Speaker 3: and how it's helping create a warmer ozone layer, and
Speaker 3: so it potentially is adding to the faster effect of
Speaker 3: the current shift in the warm. So I don't know
Speaker 3: if it's going to be if it's you know, seventy
Speaker 3: five percent because of us.
Speaker 4: No, but I do think that we think I think
Speaker 4: we are helping anything.
Speaker 3: I think that we are needing to shift how we
Speaker 3: do things as humans because we might not see it,
Speaker 3: maybe our children might not see it, but our grand
Speaker 3: children and from there on could potentially see serious harmful effects.
Speaker 4: Eventually.
Speaker 2: Say, I'm happy that you said humans, not Americans, because
Speaker 2: for some reason, Americans believe that we are the bad
Speaker 2: guys on this one. And it's like looking at the
Speaker 2: grand scheme of things. America is doing way more for
Speaker 2: the environment than most countries right now. There are something they're.
Speaker 4: Doing more now humans as a whole right collectively.
Speaker 2: Yeah, Russia and China and India really need to stop
Speaker 2: hurting the earth like they are.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I'm just India'd be wild out, dude.
Speaker 2: As much as it is so horrible, As much as
Speaker 2: people want to shoot on America for our EPA regulations
Speaker 2: and all this, have y'all seen what they are dumping
Speaker 2: in the Indian Ocean and what China is just dumping
Speaker 2: into the Sea of China and Sea of Japan right now.
Speaker 2: They do not care about their environment.
Speaker 3: If they could maybe stop Fukushima from leaking radiation, that'd
Speaker 3: be fucking awesome.
Speaker 2: That'd be so cool. That'd be so cool. And my
Speaker 2: pet peeves if China could stop burning coal as their
Speaker 2: main heat source and go to you know.
Speaker 4: They have created a ton of nuclear plants.
Speaker 3: That one just had the big the biggest one just
Speaker 3: had a whole issue with it.
Speaker 2: What China's infrastructures collapsing again, because it's a fucking no no,
Speaker 2: We're not doing that.
Speaker 3: Fossilized Antarctica pollen revealing tundra.
Speaker 2: Yeah, so apparently Antarctic pollen has been fossilized. Even let's
Speaker 2: get into it. The bees bees, I mean maybe Antarctica bees.
Speaker 4: Yeah, but remember the aliens are taking the bees.
Speaker 2: It's very possible. Okay, let's get into it here. Scientists
Speaker 2: from Rice University in the United States shout out to
Speaker 2: Rice conducted research on fossilized pollen found in the Antarctic
Speaker 2: Peninsula were amazed to find that the region was covered
Speaker 2: in tundra up to twelve million years ago. Scientists already
Speaker 2: knew that fifty five millions years ago, Antarctica was an
Speaker 2: ice free force and forested. The continent's vast ice sheet
Speaker 2: began forming around thirty eight million years ago, with the
Speaker 2: Antarctic Peninsula being the last place to be covered with ice. However,
Speaker 2: there was an ongoing debate among scientists as to how
Speaker 2: fast the glaciation occurred. That's I'm gonna use that word.
Speaker 2: I'm not gonna lie, Damn girl, Why are you so
Speaker 2: cold hearted on that glaciation around your heart? Just like
Speaker 2: your mom. Over the three here period, scientists determined the
Speaker 2: exact species of plants that existed on the peninsula twelve
Speaker 2: million years ago and found that the fossil recorded in
Speaker 2: the fossil record indicated a long, gradual process of glaciation
Speaker 2: over the peninsula. Okay, so we are talking way back
Speaker 2: in the day as far as the uh, the findings
Speaker 2: of this go. But still they were able to find
Speaker 2: fossilized pollen. That's I honestly didn't know that pollen could
Speaker 2: be fossilized, Like.
Speaker 4: I wonder, I wonder, I don't know.
Speaker 3: I mean, actually my thought process, I'm gonna have to
Speaker 3: look into it more, honestly, Like how did it fossilize
Speaker 3: so quickly?
Speaker 2: I understand why they were arguing over it. How fast
Speaker 2: did it happen?
Speaker 3: Because like it would have to happen pretty fast for
Speaker 3: something to fossilize that quickly, especially pollen, and so now
Speaker 3: a like it went from chill sixty nine degrees to
Speaker 3: freezing level in a matter of a few hours, an hour,
Speaker 3: an instant because.
Speaker 2: Look at the mammoth that they found. The mammoth was
Speaker 2: flash frozen still with grass in its mouth. It was
Speaker 2: eating mining its business and got hit with you ever
Speaker 2: seen the day after tomorrow? Oh? Yeah, basically that happened,
Speaker 2: and they that's been confirmed by science, but like even still,
Speaker 2: that mammoth would have at least had time to swallow
Speaker 2: its bite. Yeah, and the entire thing was flash frozen.
Speaker 2: It was perfectly preserved. So that being said, let's say
Speaker 2: there was a flower that was in the pollination process
Speaker 2: got flashed frozen and then covered with sediment and then
Speaker 2: got fossilized. If they were able now to couple that
Speaker 2: with the Jurassic Park conversation and Crisper conversation, could they
Speaker 2: possibly recreate through DNA splicing that prehistoric plant and recreate
Speaker 2: it today?
Speaker 3: Well with the pollen, then it means that the that
Speaker 3: the little parts inside. We're not going to go into
Speaker 3: every detail because there's like five different parts, but that
Speaker 3: means that they should be intact.
Speaker 2: Hypothetically, if they got the pollen, they got to have
Speaker 2: the rest of the plant to the essentially, which do
Speaker 2: have for those worms we just learned about, which I'm
Speaker 2: not gonna lie now that I know that they have
Speaker 2: dune style snowworms in Antarctica and they have the sperm
Speaker 2: and egg from both, I really don't.
Speaker 3: Want what if they're there. We need Kevin Bacon. We
Speaker 3: we need Kevin Bacon. Where are you at Kevin Bacon.
Speaker 3: You don't you don't vibe with the Marvel situation. But
Speaker 3: do you understand when I'm I know, yeah, I know.
Speaker 3: But the there's a Guardians of the Galaxy. They have
Speaker 3: a Christmas one where they go and kidnap Kevin Bacon
Speaker 3: from Earth. What bring yes to bring to bring to him?
Speaker 3: And they like have this whole Christmas thing. It's a
Speaker 3: great it's a great little like forty five minute on
Speaker 3: I think it's on Disney if I remember it.
Speaker 2: Wait, the Marvel characters kidnap Kevin Bacon.
Speaker 3: Yes, and he actually is playing Kevin Bacon, and they
Speaker 3: they're like, you're you see you know, you seed an
Speaker 3: entire town by dancing, and.
Speaker 4: He's like that was a character.
Speaker 2: My god, no, you know, they did footloose Kevin Bacon.
Speaker 4: They did well. They talked about different ones that he
Speaker 4: actually was on.
Speaker 2: And the aliens didn't know that these were just movies.
Speaker 4: And then they were like, he's an actor, he's the.
Speaker 3: Scum of the earth, Like, oh yeah, they like hate actors. Wow,
Speaker 3: it's a fantastic like forty five minutes. But you know,
Speaker 3: some people don't vibe with.
Speaker 2: The you know, it's crazy that they saw actors as
Speaker 2: the scum of the earth. That's how manyeple Europe saw
Speaker 2: them as well. Shakespeare and his troop, they were seen
Speaker 2: as like lower than prostitutes.
Speaker 4: Well that's pretty much what they treated him like. He
Speaker 4: gets better.
Speaker 3: But yes, we need Kevin Bacon because now they're gonna
Speaker 3: make Trimmers, which happens to be one of the best movies.
Speaker 2: By the way. Agreed, Number one and number two were excellent.
Speaker 2: Now they've got five and they got really really bad
Speaker 2: as time went on.
Speaker 4: Great.
Speaker 3: So we have pollen, we have worms, we have micro
Speaker 3: organisms from potentially Mars.
Speaker 4: What else we got going on?
Speaker 2: Oh my god, let's go more into it now. Detailing
Speaker 2: plants on the Antarctic peninsula, Jesus, words are hard. The
Speaker 2: scientists from Rice University also detailed the exact species of
Speaker 2: plants that existed on the peninsula over the past thirty
Speaker 2: six million years. The pollen record in the sedimentary layers
Speaker 2: enabled the construction of a detailed picture of rapid decline
Speaker 2: in the forest during the Late Eocene Eocene around thirty
Speaker 2: five million years ago, in widespread glaciation in the middle
Speaker 2: of the Miocene around thirteen million years ago. It's easier
Speaker 2: said than done, as fossilized pollen was located under thirty
Speaker 2: meters or one hundred feet of dense sedimentary rock in
Speaker 2: areas off the coast of the peninsula and shallow waters
Speaker 2: that are covered in ice for most of the year.
Speaker 2: Those who have embarked on an Antarctic Peninsula cruise would
Speaker 2: know the rugged condition in which these researchers worked. Bro,
Speaker 2: how many people have made that cruise? You act like
Speaker 2: that's just a thing that people be doing it.
Speaker 3: Mike. Fuck all right, you convinced me I'm gonna the
Speaker 3: only cruise I guess I will go on.
Speaker 4: Is to this hoe.
Speaker 2: No, you're not. Have you ever seen what those seas
Speaker 2: are like?
Speaker 4: Oh? Is it like this?
Speaker 2: It's bad? This is a This is not a calm cruise.
Speaker 2: This is like perfect storm start to finish. Nope.
Speaker 3: Yeah, Like I watched Poseidon way too much as a child.
Speaker 3: And to be fair, though, for all of you that
Speaker 3: are gonna say it never happens, look it up. Look
Speaker 3: it up for the last two decades, how many ships
Speaker 3: and cruise ships have capsized.
Speaker 4: Then come have that argument with me. You're welcome and
Speaker 4: be honest.
Speaker 2: I get seasick like a bitch. So I'm good.
Speaker 4: We're flying.
Speaker 3: I guess we're gonna take a cult trip fam and
Speaker 3: we'll all go to Antarctica together.
Speaker 2: Maybe maybe it's on my bucket list.
Speaker 4: Jonathan to come to oh man, Nick to come. Maybe
Speaker 4: the Platans will show up.
Speaker 2: Bro, Oh my god, the Pleaadians show up in Antarctica.
Speaker 2: Fucking done? So what are we doing? Fuck?
Speaker 4: All right, you're right, I'm wrong.
Speaker 2: Next time we are around Nick, he's gonna call him out.
Speaker 2: You're gonna see him with your own eyes too. I've
Speaker 2: seen them once.
Speaker 4: I'm I mean, I'm down. It's like I'm here for it.
Speaker 2: I tried, because you know me, I'm a I'm a
Speaker 2: relatively logical person, right, I honestly cannot explain what we
Speaker 2: were looking.
Speaker 4: I'm not gonna lie to you.
Speaker 3: There's not many things in this world that scare me,
Speaker 3: but aliens scare me.
Speaker 4: I'll probably be like, all right, I'm out, I've done.
Speaker 2: I've never if this was a star, I have certainly
Speaker 2: never seen a star behave like this in my entire life.
Speaker 2: Looking up in the sky that wasn't it wasn't a
Speaker 2: star that was starring.
Speaker 3: All right, shout out nick, I guess the next time
Speaker 3: that we come to Renaissance Festival, we'll all get together
Speaker 3: and oh, man, I'm gonna need you to I guess
Speaker 3: if I'm worthy.
Speaker 2: I mean, do they choose No? No, oh okay, He's
Speaker 2: like he is there. Uh. He speaks only half of
Speaker 2: them basically, and they're his spirit guides, and so whenever
Speaker 2: he shows.
Speaker 4: They're like stranger things.
Speaker 2: Right now it can he can, but he basically is like, hey,
Speaker 2: I want to see him. We're like yeah, sure. He'll
Speaker 2: look up at the sky for a minute and be like, right, oh,
Speaker 2: there it is boom and we're like, wait what. He's like, no, no,
Speaker 2: look at that star for a minute. We're all right, sure,
Speaker 2: all right, now watch what I do. Now he makes
Speaker 2: it dim, not blink. The star that you're watching well
Speaker 2: dim out of sight and he's like, all right, now
Speaker 2: get ready, I'm about to make it come back on
Speaker 2: and then it turns back on.
Speaker 4: Can we do this at an observatory.
Speaker 2: I would love to, but the issue is to get
Speaker 2: an observatory to focus in on one star. It takes
Speaker 2: a lot of time to move it and get everything
Speaker 2: into focus. So usually they already have something that they're
Speaker 2: already staring at that. They'll let you observe to get
Speaker 2: them to move things for your own experiment. Kind of picky.
Speaker 3: Well, I wonder if we come at it with the
Speaker 3: approach that we are a conspiracy like podcasts, and we
Speaker 3: come with the with the hey, we would like to
Speaker 3: show or be proven wrong or experiment with this, maybe
Speaker 3: potentially we could get them to come along with it.
Speaker 3: I am definitely not saying Nick that you were incorrect,
Speaker 3: by the way, I am just curious with mouth out,
Speaker 3: Like I totally want to see if we could go
Speaker 3: to a highland one down the street and have.
Speaker 2: You been, Yeah, I have, I do. I love that place,
Speaker 2: these good bonfires there.
Speaker 3: If we could see if they would actually like vibe
Speaker 3: with us. I just honestly, I'm I'm just skeptical of
Speaker 3: all sorts of things. It has nothing to do with
Speaker 3: I mean that story.
Speaker 2: But if we get a long enough like email chain
Speaker 2: going here, because those are basically ran by college.
Speaker 3: Kids, I wonder if we could add if we could
Speaker 3: get the colts, like we could do you know, a
Speaker 3: get together here in Louisiana for Mardi Gras or something
Speaker 3: and get it talked about it, get enough cult members
Speaker 3: to come, and you guys, we could all maybe get
Speaker 3: the observatory to let us actually use it and potentially
Speaker 3: call out to the good old Palladians and see.
Speaker 2: With my connections in New Orleans, I have we have
Speaker 2: talked about it having a cult conspiracy meet up for
Speaker 2: Mardi Gras, but the problem is, I don't know how
Speaker 2: many we would have to have a real like I'm
Speaker 2: not saying people would have to pay deposits, but we
Speaker 2: would have to have some real, nailed down number of
Speaker 2: people that are absolutely coming so that we could rent
Speaker 2: out a spot because everything in New Orleans is at
Speaker 2: least five times more expensive during Mardi Grawl. And I
Speaker 2: don't mind put the bill for we got it though.
Speaker 3: We could go to Highland, take a big ass tent
Speaker 3: with us, and you know, we could make it work.
Speaker 4: We could picnic style this bitch.
Speaker 2: It's technically a breck park and I think that you
Speaker 2: are allowed to camp on those. We have to get
Speaker 2: like a permit from the city. We'll figure it out.
Speaker 3: You know what, standby Colt, we are going to attempt
Speaker 3: to get all of us, at least a good number
Speaker 3: of us together.
Speaker 4: I think that would be fantastic.
Speaker 2: Agreed, agreed, all right. So now getting back to this one. Now,
Speaker 2: dating the Antarctic sediments, not only did Rice University scientists
Speaker 2: have to date the pollen, they also have to date
Speaker 2: the aids of the various sediments. In each core sample taken,
Speaker 2: they determined whether the rocks form below the ice sheet
Speaker 2: in an open marine condition or is a combined glacial
Speaker 2: marine setting. Their research involved painstaking counts, categorization, and examination
Speaker 2: of the texture of thousands of sand grains preserved in
Speaker 2: the sediment. Their goal was to find out how much
Speaker 2: of the area was covered by glaslaciers over the past
Speaker 2: thirty six million years.
Speaker 4: It probably took decades of work.
Speaker 2: By the way, could you the Rice University of these
Speaker 2: are college kids that are like working on their masks.
Speaker 3: Shout out to everybody that worked on this says so much.
Speaker 3: I categorized every piece of everything that we found on
Speaker 3: that dig site, and it I mean we were there
Speaker 3: all the like, every day, NonStop, and we steal thousands
Speaker 3: and thousands and thousands of pieces of things.
Speaker 2: But now think about categorizing individual grains of sand, grain
Speaker 2: of sand, just like millions millions of grains of sand
Speaker 2: to see like, Okay, was this sand under a glacier
Speaker 2: or was this on a beach. Let's look at all
Speaker 2: the small micro distortions in this one grain of sand
Speaker 2: to determine it. Okay, it was glacier. Gonna put that
Speaker 2: into this pile.
Speaker 4: And all think people appreciate scientists enough.
Speaker 3: Real shit, I think that people just overlook the science
Speaker 3: fields and don't understand how much time, dedication and effort
Speaker 3: these people put into telling us, all of us normies,
Speaker 3: what is actually well, what they can at least find
Speaker 3: about Earth and about everything else about the human body.
Speaker 4: You name it, whatever field it is.
Speaker 3: I mean, I'm just saying shout out to every scientist
Speaker 3: and potentially probably not gonna listen to us, but hey
Speaker 3: if you're listening.
Speaker 2: But also, it's crazy whenever all this work goes into
Speaker 2: a dig site or goes into some sort of theory
Speaker 2: that these scientists are proposing to be verified true, and
Speaker 2: then the powers that be basically say, cool, we're gonna
Speaker 2: go ahead and shelve that and never tell anybody about it.
Speaker 2: Thank you for all of your decades of time and research,
Speaker 2: but go home now.
Speaker 3: Yeah, like the black hole theory, Yeah, some of those
Speaker 3: people have been working on that for decades, and just
Speaker 3: recently they started actually kind of say that potentially there's
Speaker 3: mistakes in physics and that there's.
Speaker 4: Something maybe changing with it.
Speaker 3: But that's you know, that's going to take another or
Speaker 3: years to maybe at least prove or disprove.
Speaker 2: So yeah, yeah, it's that's the thing shout out to
Speaker 2: the scientists are actually putting in the workout there. But
Speaker 2: then you also have the asshole scientists like Neil deGrasse
Speaker 2: Tyson who basically shit on all the research that other
Speaker 2: fields of science have done for forever. It's yeah, the
Speaker 2: science of community, in the academic community, it is. It's
Speaker 2: a very dirty world. I'm gonna be honest with you.
Speaker 4: It's a lot of politically driven.
Speaker 2: Very politically driven, very monetarily driven sometimes to connect, not always.
Speaker 2: And then it's also very much about your credibility. Yes,
Speaker 2: it's very much about your status and your name recognition
Speaker 2: in your particular field of study. And even if you
Speaker 2: were to make some crazy groundbreaking discovery that like is
Speaker 2: confirmed and like oh my god, this is going to
Speaker 2: change the narrative, This is going to change the scope
Speaker 2: of so many things we understand. Now you have to
Speaker 2: to determine is it worth putting your livelihood and your
Speaker 2: decades of work on the line for Because if you
Speaker 2: present this to your peers and they shit all over
Speaker 2: it and now put you in the realm of being
Speaker 2: a quack, then all of your research, all of your work,
Speaker 2: all of it in anything you're going to try to
Speaker 2: accomplish from that point onward, is also labeled in the quackitude.
Speaker 2: So it's a very wild world, very interesting anyway, So
Speaker 2: the forests high in Antarctica's mountains. Meanwhile, researchers from the
Speaker 2: University of will Yeah, u W Milwaukee. I was trying
Speaker 2: to think of what the state that is the University
Speaker 2: of Wisconsin, right, Milwaukee's in Wisconsin. Yeah, So, researchers from
Speaker 2: the University of Wisconsin Milwaukee climbed the frozen slopes of
Speaker 2: the transit Antarctic Mountains and found gray rocks containing fossils
Speaker 2: from Antarctica's forest past. They found fossil fragments of thirteen
Speaker 2: trees and discovered fossils of trees that are over two
Speaker 2: hundred and sixty million years old. That's so cool, meaning
Speaker 2: that this particular forest was growing at the end of
Speaker 2: the Permian period. Before the first dinosaurs.
Speaker 3: What that's so cool, Like, man, that's to be able
Speaker 3: to even see that in person and to touch it
Speaker 3: or just you know, just to at least visualize it
Speaker 3: and stuff in person. That'd be to wrap your mind
Speaker 3: around how old the Earth is. Yeah, it's just crazy.
Speaker 2: So at that time, antarticle was still at the South pole. This, yeah, obviously,
Speaker 2: at that time, Antarctica was still at the South Pole.
Speaker 2: It's still there today. That was a weird sentence. The
Speaker 2: scientists were hoping to find fossils from the Permian period,
Speaker 2: as this period ended two hundred and fifty one million
Speaker 2: years ago with a mass extinction caused by a sudden
Speaker 2: shift from ice house to greenhouse conditions. During this time,
Speaker 2: more than ninety percent of the species disappeared, including the
Speaker 2: polar forest. Cool so, okay. Obviously next would be the
Speaker 2: low diversity of plants. I understand that. Okay. The scignists
Speaker 2: are trying to figure out why these hardy species went extinct.
Speaker 2: It's estimated that this extinction event was relatively quick in
Speaker 2: geological terms, occurring over two hundred thousand years. During that time,
Speaker 2: volcanoes in Siberia released an enormous quantity of greenhouse gases
Speaker 2: into the atmosphere. The scientists found that the forest had
Speaker 2: a low diversity of plants each and specific functions affected
Speaker 2: how the whole forest responded to the environmental change. This
Speaker 2: is in contrast to modern forests today, which have wider
Speaker 2: plant diversity and therefore are more adaptable to change. Nonetheless,
Speaker 2: the Antarctic forest was quite resilient, with the plants able
Speaker 2: to survive through polar extremes of twenty four hour light
Speaker 2: in summer and complete darkness in winter. So Antarctic plants
Speaker 2: turning on and off their growing cycles. Now that's crazy.
Speaker 2: These plants had developed their own version of hibernation.
Speaker 4: Plants.
Speaker 3: Plants are wild to me. The earth is in and
Speaker 3: of itself is crazy to me, and how everything has
Speaker 3: evolved and changes and adapt so quickly. Humans do not,
Speaker 3: but as well as everything else. But it's wild to me.
Speaker 3: How the growing, how they are able to do different
Speaker 3: things to make sure that they survive.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, otherwise they wouldn't have the fossilized remains
Speaker 2: that they do. That's I mean, I understand. There's also
Speaker 2: a lot of working theories here, right, we don't know
Speaker 2: necessarily because we weren't there, and I can understand and
Speaker 2: appreciate that's that point of view, but also it's like,
Speaker 2: if this had to have taken place, then there has
Speaker 2: to be at least a few likely reasons to say
Speaker 2: that plants turned off their growing cycles for a time.
Speaker 2: I mean, granted, like.
Speaker 4: The tree rings. That's how they're testing it.
Speaker 1: Mm hmm.
Speaker 2: So by studying the preserved Antarctic tree rings, the researchers
Speaker 2: found that these trees transition from summer activity to winter
Speaker 2: dormancy within a month. Wow. Modern plants meanwhile, make the
Speaker 2: transition over several months, which right, so we go from
Speaker 2: our spring to summer, and then when we get to
Speaker 2: our fall and winter, you can track the rings and
Speaker 2: see like, okay, this is when it really stopped its
Speaker 2: growing cycle. To say that these plants were able to
Speaker 2: do that within a month is pretty phenomenal. The next
Speaker 2: question researchers are working on is how months of perpetual
Speaker 2: light affected the plant's day and night cycles. There are
Speaker 2: no other plants living currently that have the ability to
Speaker 2: turn off and on their growing cycles, so scientists will
Speaker 2: need to study how these plants managed to force themselves
Speaker 2: out of dormancy when it was still dark. That's pretty incredible,
Speaker 2: so crazy. The last one on this article is the
Speaker 2: fossil food of Antarctica. The remnants of ancient forests are
Speaker 2: providing a source of life today in Lake Willands or Welans,
Speaker 2: I don't know which, sits below nearly one kilometer of
Speaker 2: ice in West Antarctica. Despite a heavy layer of ice
Speaker 2: on top, there is liquid water in the lake. When
Speaker 2: scientists drove through the ice and took samples of the
Speaker 2: lake's water and the sediment beneath it, they found that
Speaker 2: the water contained a thriving microbial com unity. The sediment
Speaker 2: contains microfossils of marine organisms, fossilized pollen from both beach
Speaker 2: trees and conifers, and pollen some three or thirty four
Speaker 2: million years old. In fact, both types of fossils are
Speaker 2: providing nutrients to the microbial community that is living in
Speaker 2: the pitch dark and at high pressures and low temperatures.
Speaker 2: Though an Antarctica trip reveals how amazing the region is
Speaker 2: from a sensory perspective, the findings of researchers in Antarctica
Speaker 2: similarly reveal how amazing the inner workings of the terrain
Speaker 2: continue to be. Wow So shout out to Ocean Wide
Speaker 2: for this one. Okay, so the next article we're going
Speaker 2: to talk about is the Blood the blood springs. I
Speaker 2: suppose you could say the waterfall, the blood waterfall. So
Speaker 2: now let's talk about Antarctica's blood red waterfall showing on
Speaker 2: screen right now, that is what it looks like. So
Speaker 2: just in the middle of all this ice and frozen
Speaker 2: tundra and all this bright red to dark crimson liquid
Speaker 2: is spurting out of the ice wall here. Essentially, this
Speaker 2: is from Smithsonian magazine, and I mean some of these
Speaker 2: pictures are like, if you didn't know any better and
Speaker 2: you had never known that Antarctica had this going on,
Speaker 2: that would be terrifying. To be completely honest, I'm.
Speaker 3: Be wondering if there's a whole bunch of dead people
Speaker 3: or something happening, right, what's going on with this?
Speaker 2: Like, what the hell is happening with this? But you
Speaker 2: know what, we're gonna learn about this one together, good
Speaker 2: colt members, So let's dive in. This is from the Smithsonian.
Speaker 2: I might add, one of the world's most extreme deserts
Speaker 2: might be the last place one would expect to find
Speaker 2: a waterfall, but in Antarctica's McMurdo Dry Valley, a five
Speaker 2: story fall pour slowly out of the Tailor glacier into
Speaker 2: Lake Bonnie. And it's not just the idea of a
Speaker 2: waterfall in the frozen world of Antarctica that's strange. The
Speaker 2: waterfall is bright red, like blood running from a cut
Speaker 2: in the glacier. Once again, McMurdo Dry Valley is where
Speaker 2: the America American scientists quote unquote have a base that
Speaker 2: was ran by Raytheon. So whenever somebody says that, oh,
Speaker 2: it's only being used for scientific exploration, why does a
Speaker 2: military industrial contractor why are they running an Antarctic quote
Speaker 2: unquote research base.
Speaker 3: A lot of the military is there though, that scientists
Speaker 3: are using their bases.
Speaker 2: And then you couple that with the fact that that's
Speaker 2: the spot where the only confirmed murder took place in Antarctica.
Speaker 2: But we're gonna get to.
Speaker 4: That lay feeding the blood fall.
Speaker 2: It show nuff is. If you're squeamish, don't worry. It's
Speaker 2: not blood that lends blood falls. Its unique Crimson Hue.
Speaker 2: Five million years ago, sea levels rose, flooding East Antarctica
Speaker 2: and forming a salty lake. Millions of years later, glaciers
Speaker 2: formed on top of the lake, cutting it off from
Speaker 2: the rest of the continent, mean that the water in
Speaker 2: Blood Falls is something of an aqueous time capsule four
Speaker 2: hundred meters underground. As the glaciers on top of the
Speaker 2: lake began to freeze, the water below became even saltier. Today,
Speaker 2: the salt content of the subglacial lake under blood Falls
Speaker 2: is three times saltier than seawater and too salty to freeze.
Speaker 2: The subglacial lake that feeds blood Falls is trapped beneath
Speaker 2: a quarter mile of ice. But in addition to being
Speaker 2: cut off from the rest of the continent, the water
Speaker 2: that feeds blood Falls is completely cut off from the atmosphere.
Speaker 2: It has never seen sunlight and is completely devoid of oxygen.
Speaker 2: It's also extremely rich in iron, which was churned into
Speaker 2: the water by glaciers scraping the bedrock below the lake.
Speaker 2: When water from the subglacial lake seeps through a fissure
Speaker 2: in the glacier, the salty water cascades down tailor glacier
Speaker 2: into lake, bonding below. When the iron rich water comes
Speaker 2: into contact with the air, it rusts, depositing blood red
Speaker 2: stains on the ice as it falls. So essentially, it's
Speaker 2: not that the glacier is bleeding. The water is a
Speaker 2: super salty fair there is aqueous mixture, and as soon
Speaker 2: as it does make contact with oxygen, which and that
Speaker 2: kind of kills me too, water has oxygen within it.
Speaker 2: H two. Oh, so why wouldn't the faires minerals in
Speaker 2: this water already have some sort of a rust content
Speaker 2: if the water itself has oxygen. Maybe it's because it's
Speaker 2: so salty. Maybe that kind of, like it said, encapsulated
Speaker 2: each of these iron particles.
Speaker 3: Maybe when it hits the actual air, it's so so
Speaker 3: much more that it changes the chemistry of it and
Speaker 3: causes it to rust.
Speaker 2: Actually, I just realized, yeah, it has to be, because
Speaker 2: when it's about the concentration of oxygen on the fairost materials,
Speaker 2: that's what makes it go to iron oxide. Okay, fair enough,
Speaker 2: fair enough. The color of blood Falls isn't the only
Speaker 2: weird thing about it. However, it's what lives inside the
Speaker 2: subglacial lake that interests scientists more than the waterfalls. Creepy
Speaker 2: color microbes, but maybe maybe that too. Millions of years ago,
Speaker 2: when those glaciers covered the salt lakes, there were microbes
Speaker 2: living in the water, and those microbes haven't gone anywhere,
Speaker 2: even though the water is now an extremely salty, oxygen
Speaker 2: free bowl of complete darkness buried four hundred meters under
Speaker 2: a glacier. Much of the bacteria are much like bacteria
Speaker 2: found living near deep sea thermal vents. The microbes of
Speaker 2: Blood Falls get their energy from breaking apart sulfates, which
Speaker 2: contain oxygen. After that, something early magical happens when the
Speaker 2: byproducts the iron in the water interacts with them to
Speaker 2: restore the sulfates, basically recycling the sulfates for the microbes
Speaker 2: to break down into oxygen over and over again. So
Speaker 2: the falls of McMurdo Dry Valley can only be reached
Speaker 2: by helicopter from nearby Antarctic Research station or cruise ships
Speaker 2: visiting the Ross Sea. So again, good cult members, if
Speaker 2: you have seen pictures of the Blood Falls from Antarctica,
Speaker 2: it's actually just rusty water. But that being said, these
Speaker 2: microbes they are living, keep in mind all of them
Speaker 2: have never seen sunlight. It's it's not a photosynthesis type
Speaker 2: of situation that's giving them energy. It's what's called chemosynthesis,
Speaker 2: and these chemosynthesis extreme mephiles I think I used the
Speaker 2: word right on that one have somehow survived uncontacted, untouched
Speaker 2: by the outside world for millions and millions and millions
Speaker 2: of years, which is letting them, letting scientists anyway possibly
Speaker 2: get a look into why there may be life on
Speaker 2: other planets, how bacterial and microbial life can exist in
Speaker 2: oxygen defunct environments, but still as long as the conditions
Speaker 2: are right for them, they're still able to survive and thrive.
Speaker 3: It's to eventually create gene spicing and add it to
Speaker 3: plant life and things like things like that, so they're
Speaker 3: able to transport that to all.
Speaker 2: Right, now, we are gonna go ahead and share the
Speaker 2: screen and play this video of a very similar situation
Speaker 2: that is taking place in as far as the chemical
Speaker 2: concentration is concerned. In how these microbes they like. They
Speaker 2: said they found them in volcanic vints under the ocean,
Speaker 2: but recently they discovered another place on Earth that has
Speaker 2: a very similar situationship with the environment and these microbes
Speaker 2: that are existing. I'm gonna go ahead and share the
Speaker 2: screen at this time and once getting good cult members
Speaker 2: if you would like to see what we are talking
Speaker 2: about rather than just hear about it. They can go
Speaker 2: to the Lincoln the description to Patreon dot com slash
Speaker 2: Cult Conspiracy podcast. That's the only place you'd be able
Speaker 2: to see the video for this. All right, without further ado,
Speaker 2: let's dive in to this other spot that recently kind
Speaker 2: of confirms all that we've been talking about today.
Speaker 6: It is spooky science series time, and this is probably
Speaker 6: the closest we're gonna get to alien life here on Earth.
Speaker 6: In nineteen eighty six, Remainian researchers were surveying land for
Speaker 6: a power plant when they drill down and hit nothing.
Speaker 6: Avoid Six meters below the surface, completely sealed off by clay,
Speaker 6: was a cave that had to touch the Earth's atmosphere
Speaker 6: in five point five million years. This is Moville Cave,
Speaker 6: and what these researchers found inside rerise what we thought
Speaker 6: was possible for life on Earth. This cave is a
Speaker 6: two hundred and forty meter horizontal maze with no natural entrance.
Speaker 6: It's been locked away since the Miocene epic, before modern humans,
Speaker 6: before modern mammals evolved. When scientists finally entered the cave,
Speaker 6: they discovered that the air was basically poison. Oxygen levels
Speaker 6: were as low as seven percent, which is about a.
Speaker 4: Third of what we normally breathe.
Speaker 6: Carbon dioxide levels were eighty times higher than surface level.
Speaker 6: You and I would last maybe an hour before passing out,
Speaker 6: But life inside this cave is thriving. Over thirty species
Speaker 6: have been found inside this cave that exists nowhere else
Speaker 6: on Earth. Here's where it gets scientifically spooky and truly alien.
Speaker 6: This ecosystem doesn't run on sunlight. There is no photosynthesis
Speaker 6: happening here. Instead, it runs on chemosynthesis, bacteria eating hydrogen,
Speaker 6: sulfide and methane, converting those toxic chemicals into energy, forming
Speaker 6: slimy mats on the cave walls and water surface, and
Speaker 6: those mats feed everything else.
Speaker 4: This is the.
Speaker 6: Only land based chemosynthetic ecosystem ever found. The only other
Speaker 6: places like this are hydrothermal events at the bottom of
Speaker 6: the ocean. And the creatures completely blind, eyes are missing
Speaker 6: or non functional, translucent, colorless bodies because pigmentation is useless
Speaker 6: in the dark, but elongated legs and antennae to navigate
Speaker 6: by touch and chemical sensing alone. The cave's apex predator
Speaker 6: is this two inch venomous centipede cryptov spellurex which literally
Speaker 6: translates to king of the cave. It hunts smaller in
Speaker 6: vertebrates that have never in its entire evolutionary history seen light.
Speaker 6: This is an adaptation, but an example of parallel evolution.
Speaker 6: Life that's from the surface world five point five million
Speaker 6: years ago and went in its own direction. Since its discovery,
Speaker 6: access is limited through an eighteen meter vertical shaft sealed
Speaker 6: with an airtight gate. Only a handful of researchers enter
Speaker 6: each year with special permission, one of them being NASA.
Speaker 6: Because if life can exist here, it can exist in
Speaker 6: the subsurface oceans of Europa.
Speaker 4: And the like.
Speaker 6: TLDR Mobile Cave is our best model for what alien
Speaker 6: life might actually look like. But for me, the wile
Speaker 6: this spookiest part about all of this is the fact
Speaker 6: that we only discovered this cave thirty nine years ago,
Speaker 6: and that too by accident. I can only imagine there
Speaker 6: are many other places like this on our Earth waiting
Speaker 6: to be discovered. Fall from more spooky science series all
Speaker 6: October long, and make sure you subscribe to our YouTube channel.
Speaker 2: For it all right, Shout out to what is it
Speaker 2: now till science on YouTube. Shout out to them. It's
Speaker 2: crazy to see that there are other examples at least
Speaker 2: that had been discovered. That was a Romanian cave. I
Speaker 2: think she said that has the same type of self
Speaker 2: contained ecosystem where they're pretty much just uncontacted for millions
Speaker 2: and millions of years. That ties into why the blood
Speaker 2: falls of Antarctica are what they are and how they
Speaker 2: have operated and function to become what they are today.
Speaker 3: That's so crazy to me, mind blowing. They of course
Speaker 3: have spiders. I don't know if anybody do picked up
Speaker 3: on that.
Speaker 2: Yeah, they have spiders inside the cave as well more spiders.
Speaker 2: What is rods with the world the like? She said?
Speaker 2: The Apex predator is a two inch long centipede.
Speaker 3: Right, I talked about one of the worst bugs humanly
Speaker 3: possible for me.
Speaker 4: Yeah, ever, period, Who I'm gonna get chills so.
Speaker 2: You can never go to Hawaii?
Speaker 7: Then?
Speaker 2: OK?
Speaker 3: Good? Now, I watched Indian Jones a bit too much
Speaker 3: him seeing his hand. I'm just saying that others probably
Speaker 3: like maybe four people that I've put my hand in
Speaker 3: that hole. For everybody else, I'd just be like, I
Speaker 3: love you, You're.
Speaker 4: Just gonna die really quickly. Love you. I'm not putting
Speaker 4: my hand inside the fucking hole.
Speaker 2: But the spider that was in that picture, that was
Speaker 2: in that cave is tiny by comparison. If the largest
Speaker 2: apex preytor is a two inch centipede, that's gotta be tiny.
Speaker 4: Antarctica like the Antarctica one, though it did.
Speaker 2: It did indeed, and the ones in Antarctica are the
Speaker 2: size of dinner plates.
Speaker 4: What the fuck m they must be all from Australia.
Speaker 4: We blame Australia.
Speaker 2: Interestingly enough, Antarctica was called Terra Australis for the majority
Speaker 2: of its history until Captain Cook. Actually, when he went there,
Speaker 2: they thought it was originally just another island off of
Speaker 2: Australia that they were going to circumnavigate and map. They
Speaker 2: didn't realize that it was its own independent continent.
Speaker 3: So I don't know how all of the Australians that
Speaker 3: we have listened to the show, I don't know how
Speaker 3: y'all live there with the with the amount of spiders.
Speaker 4: I just.
Speaker 2: And nine of the ten most venomous snakes on Earth
Speaker 2: all live there. But I mean keep in mind, and
Speaker 2: they also lost a war to a bunch of birds,
Speaker 2: so like you know, the EMU Wars. For anybody who
Speaker 2: doesn't know. The Australians, with all their might and all
Speaker 2: their ability to just like tame the Outback, lost the
Speaker 2: war to flightless birds.
Speaker 4: Have you ever been around an emu?
Speaker 2: I guarantee a machine gun could lay out an entire
Speaker 2: herd or.
Speaker 4: Flock abase fast and so aggressive.
Speaker 2: You're telling me that a fifty cow with a couple
Speaker 2: of boxes of VMO, especially because they all kind of
Speaker 2: heard themselves together a flock. I'm not sure what should
Speaker 2: the correct term for EMUs, but like you're telling me
Speaker 2: that you couldn't just like lay out an entire herd.
Speaker 4: I think it's flock, but I mean flock. Yeah, but they.
Speaker 2: Are quite We had the Buffalo Wars in America to
Speaker 2: mostly that was to like starve out the Indian population,
Speaker 2: and I understand that and it was horrible, But you're
Speaker 2: telling me Australia couldn't do something similar. Instead, they just
Speaker 2: built a massive fence and said, fine, the birds can
Speaker 2: have this section of the country. They win. Like, that's
Speaker 2: the most ridiculous punk ash shit my life.
Speaker 4: Look, they are like they're from the raptors.
Speaker 2: Yep, so's the chicken yeah, but well no, the chickens
Speaker 2: from the t rex excuse me. The closest relative to
Speaker 2: an actual chicken is a t rex, yeah, which is.
Speaker 4: The little arms.
Speaker 2: But yeah, so Captain Cook was one of the first
Speaker 2: to Actually he's the one that navigated New Zealand and
Speaker 2: made the map of it, then went to Australia, then
Speaker 2: found Hawaii, and that's where he died because you know,
Speaker 2: there was a bit of a scuff he and his
Speaker 2: crew had a little bit of a little dust up
Speaker 2: with the local population, and then the local Polynesian tribe
Speaker 2: of Hawaii took him and his crew members that died
Speaker 2: to the top of the mountain and skinned him. Uh.
Speaker 2: He was dead by this point, but they skinned him
Speaker 2: and sent the bones back to the ship. Granted, in
Speaker 2: the Polynesian.
Speaker 4: Culture, wasn't that really respectful though?
Speaker 3: Right?
Speaker 2: It was. They actually sent portions of his bones to
Speaker 2: other chiefs other islands, which to them was a massive
Speaker 2: sign of respect, like they were giving them like a
Speaker 2: totem of this great warrior, even in his death. They
Speaker 2: respected Captain Cook. But the other white guys on the
Speaker 2: ship watched this savagery and this barbarism and wrote back,
Speaker 2: They're like, yo, don't go here. These people are insane
Speaker 2: and shit, But then you know all the things. So
Speaker 2: cap'n Cook, with all of his things, really doing his
Speaker 2: work with the mapping of the coastline of Australia. It
Speaker 2: changed a lot of narratives too.
Speaker 3: There's a lot of information, are a lot of people
Speaker 3: debating his specific map and what it could mean for
Speaker 3: potential ice or not ice in those locations at that time.
Speaker 2: Keep in mind cap'n Cook's maps were used up until
Speaker 2: the nineteen sixties by most of the First World countries.
Speaker 2: American naval officers were still using maps that were basically
Speaker 2: copy and pasted references from cap'n Cook's maps.
Speaker 4: That's pretty cool, to be honest with you.
Speaker 2: It is. But then keep in mind a lot of
Speaker 2: the research that was done in Antarctica, even in the
Speaker 2: Golden Age of exploration, a lot of his maps of
Speaker 2: the coastline. Most saw them as very accurate, so they
Speaker 2: just kind of rolled with it up until satellite imagery
Speaker 2: kind of gave us a better picture of it. And
Speaker 2: that was the first map that was made of it
Speaker 2: since the Pirie Rece map, which is also incredible for
Speaker 2: the time frame that it was made. But it was
Speaker 2: also story from a story from a story to get
Speaker 2: to Europe to Pirie Reeves who actually wrote it down
Speaker 2: and drew this thing. But for the vast majority of
Speaker 2: human existence of people that believed the Antarctica was a thing,
Speaker 2: they thought it was a land mass that connected all
Speaker 2: other land masks. Basically, they believed that the southernmost African
Speaker 2: tip touched Antarctica and as well as Australia, as well
Speaker 2: as South America. They just thought it was like a
Speaker 2: massive land bridge that connected everything to everything, and it
Speaker 2: it was a very decent working theory.
Speaker 4: But I mean, if you can't cross it, well, you know, Piri.
Speaker 2: Rees had never gone never even left most I think
Speaker 2: he made his way down to Africa twice or something
Speaker 2: like that, but not even to the South African coast.
Speaker 2: So he was going off of not even third person information.
Speaker 2: He was going off of like seventh or eighth person
Speaker 2: information to say that there was something down there. But
Speaker 2: it's all very interesting and important for the day and
Speaker 2: age that it was made. But all things considered, you know,
Speaker 2: we now know way more about the obviously with satellites,
Speaker 2: but we can now look at the research that they
Speaker 2: were doing and understand why they put that pin to
Speaker 2: paper in that way, and it's not to debunk these people.
Speaker 2: It is a way to show they were doing the
Speaker 2: best with what they had at the time.
Speaker 4: There's actually a speaking of just maps.
Speaker 3: I was watching a thing about why NASA why the
Speaker 3: Earth's photos that people see how they've interlayed them and
Speaker 3: how they've made this like stitch pattern of photos, and
Speaker 3: Steven that's why most people don't believe it because stitch
Speaker 3: together photos.
Speaker 2: They are photoshopped.
Speaker 3: Yes, yeah, And there's like this whole thing about you know,
Speaker 3: Antarctica when I was looking it up, about the photos,
Speaker 3: the black spots and all that stuff.
Speaker 2: So some of it has to be photoshopped though, because
Speaker 2: if you were to just take a snapshot of the
Speaker 2: Earth from space, there's so much cloud coverage and you're
Speaker 2: you're basically gonna look at a snow globe. So they
Speaker 2: have to take a section of this that where when
Speaker 2: there was no cloud coverage and then stitch that together
Speaker 2: with this other area when there was no cloud coverage.
Speaker 2: So they do have to kind of photoshop and collage
Speaker 2: things together. Or it's flat, clearly must be because it's flat,
Speaker 2: you know anyway, But hey, those those flat earthers that
Speaker 2: made their way to Antarctica. At least one of them
Speaker 2: was convinced that maybe he was wrong, you know, big man.
Speaker 2: And actually Jaren was supposed to come on this show. Eventually,
Speaker 2: we were in contact with him to come on our
Speaker 2: show and talk to us about his Antarctic expedition, but
Speaker 2: he he got busy with other podcasts that he was
Speaker 2: supposed to be scheduled to go on. So good cult
Speaker 2: members be on the lookout. We're gonna try to get
Speaker 2: Jaren on the show to tell us firsthand from the
Speaker 2: man that went to Antarctica what he experienced to claim that. Now,
Speaker 2: keep in mind, he was a professional flat earther. He
Speaker 2: was a content creator that was all about flat Earth.
Speaker 2: So for him to say, hey, I was wrong, the
Speaker 2: Earth is round. He has gotten so much shit from
Speaker 2: the flat earth community. He has been quote unquote debunked
Speaker 2: by certain individuals, and it's really sad because he's honestly
Speaker 2: just trying to tell people the truth and now they're saying, oh,
Speaker 2: he's obviously bought. The government got to him, and it's
Speaker 2: like Broly, he's a podcaster.
Speaker 3: I guess you know what, if they want to believe
Speaker 3: in flat Earth, I'm here for it. If they want
Speaker 3: to believe it's round, I'm here for it. They want
Speaker 3: to believe it's hollow, I am here for it.
Speaker 2: With that, we do want to get to Hollow earth
Speaker 2: good cult members, but we're not going to have time
Speaker 2: today because to be honest, we have only gotten through
Speaker 2: like three out of the ten things that we brought
Speaker 2: to bring onto this episode today. So we are gonna
Speaker 2: do an Antarctica Part two next episode as a matter
Speaker 2: of fact. But uh, without further ado, we are gonna
Speaker 2: wrap up this episode. If you would like to experience,
Speaker 2: you know, the benefits of the marijuana, and you don't
Speaker 2: want to smoke it, but you would like to drink it,
Speaker 2: then go to the link in the description below to
Speaker 2: Good Feels Cannabis CBD and THC Seltzer. I have never
Speaker 2: tried the product myself, but Jonathan has and he swears
Speaker 2: by it. He loves it, and apparently it gives you
Speaker 2: a good, solid buzz without getting you know, spirit animal
Speaker 2: levels of high. And you're also you know, you're not
Speaker 2: gonna have the hangover, any of the nastier effects that
Speaker 2: you would have from alcohol. So if you would like
Speaker 2: to experience cannabis seltzer go to link in the description
Speaker 2: to get twenty percent off and free shipping to your door.
Speaker 2: If you would like to get your start in the
Speaker 2: buying and selling and trading of gold and silver bullying
Speaker 2: in the best place to go would be to go
Speaker 2: to cocsilver dot com. Fill out your information, and when
Speaker 2: you do, our homeboy Wayne Clark is gonna be the
Speaker 2: one to reach out to you and get you squared away.
Speaker 2: Talk to your financial advisor, talk to your CPA, you're
Speaker 2: accounting what and ask them if they think that investing
Speaker 2: in precious metals is a wise investment. I promise you
Speaker 2: they're gonna tell you at least a portion of your
Speaker 2: retirement portfolio needs to be invested in precious metals and bullion.
Speaker 2: Best place to get your start and get real tangible
Speaker 2: silver and gold mailed to your door would be to
Speaker 2: go to cecsilver dot com and get your start today.
Speaker 2: But another way that you support the show and let
Speaker 2: the good cult members around the world know what you
Speaker 2: think about this episode. What do you personally think about
Speaker 2: the topics we've covered with Antarctica today and again there's
Speaker 2: gonna be a part two. So if we didn't cover
Speaker 2: your favorite Antarctica, conspiracy or myth or legend. We might
Speaker 2: get it on the next episode, but we want to
Speaker 2: hear what you have to say about this episode. Primarily
Speaker 2: if you disagree with some of the points that we made,
Speaker 2: let us know. If nothing else, feed the algorithm. The
Speaker 2: more you talk on the comments section, the more the
Speaker 2: algorithm is fed, the bigger the show can go. So
Speaker 2: what you could do please would be too hit the
Speaker 2: five stars, hit the Shares of Life, suscribes comments, leave
Speaker 2: a post in reviews, shares, the Friends of Family, shriffs everwhere.
Speaker 2: Here's the deal. The more activity our algorithm seas across
Speaker 2: all of our listening platforms, the more we get promoted
Speaker 2: and more potential lists who could then become potential call
Speaker 2: mamers like the rest of you. Finally, he's in, gentlemen,
Speaker 2: why you're ready to go ahead and give Jonathan the
Speaker 2: level on his side project, which is now his main hustle.
Speaker 2: The metamistics give them the same love of respect over
Speaker 2: there with the five star abusing and positivity in the comments.
Speaker 2: Come turn out the Cage to night and come joint
Speaker 2: each of us for our individual patroon live events that
Speaker 2: we host every Wednesday night. At nine pm Central. Links
Speaker 2: to both are in the description as well. Thank you
Speaker 2: for everybody's already gone and done so. And with all
Speaker 2: of this being said, this was another beautiful episode of
