1 00:00:14,640 --> 00:00:17,040 Speaker 1: My name is Clay Nukleman, and this is a production 2 00:00:17,120 --> 00:00:20,720 Speaker 1: of the bear Grease podcast called The Bear Grease Rendered 3 00:00:21,120 --> 00:00:25,200 Speaker 1: where we render down, dive deeper, and look behind the 4 00:00:25,239 --> 00:00:30,120 Speaker 1: scenes of the actual bear Grease podcast, presented by f 5 00:00:30,480 --> 00:00:35,360 Speaker 1: HF Gear, American Maid, purpose built hunting and fishing gear 6 00:00:35,600 --> 00:00:38,560 Speaker 1: that's designed to be as rugged as the place as 7 00:00:38,560 --> 00:00:48,320 Speaker 1: we explore. So, I was just walking down by the 8 00:00:48,360 --> 00:00:51,680 Speaker 1: creek just ten minutes ago, looked in a pool of 9 00:00:51,680 --> 00:00:55,120 Speaker 1: water about six inches deep. Found that rock right there. Wow, 10 00:00:56,000 --> 00:00:56,920 Speaker 1: that is a keeper. 11 00:00:57,600 --> 00:01:01,200 Speaker 2: Yeah, how that get I feel like that is by accident. 12 00:01:02,160 --> 00:01:03,160 Speaker 3: I think it's the thing. 13 00:01:04,120 --> 00:01:09,160 Speaker 1: I think it's a geologic process because bear tell them 14 00:01:09,200 --> 00:01:09,840 Speaker 1: what you just told me. 15 00:01:10,319 --> 00:01:12,360 Speaker 4: I mean, I met a guy the today was wearing 16 00:01:12,360 --> 00:01:13,920 Speaker 4: one on his neck like a necklace. 17 00:01:14,280 --> 00:01:16,880 Speaker 3: But you come across him here and there, you know, Yeah. 18 00:01:16,720 --> 00:01:21,720 Speaker 1: You'll come across this sandstone. In these creeks, this brown 19 00:01:22,520 --> 00:01:24,640 Speaker 1: gravel will sometimes have a hole in it, and I'm 20 00:01:25,160 --> 00:01:28,080 Speaker 1: I feel like there's a geologic explanation for it. And 21 00:01:28,160 --> 00:01:31,160 Speaker 1: I think this is it really is. 22 00:01:31,200 --> 00:01:32,480 Speaker 3: It's shockingly uniform. 23 00:01:32,760 --> 00:01:35,840 Speaker 1: And I think this is a great opener for the 24 00:01:35,880 --> 00:01:42,160 Speaker 1: water witching discussion because I think It's possible that five 25 00:01:42,240 --> 00:01:46,520 Speaker 1: hundred years ago, before we knew as much about the universe, 26 00:01:47,560 --> 00:01:53,400 Speaker 1: and the world was governed by superstition, by a whole 27 00:01:53,440 --> 00:01:57,640 Speaker 1: lot of other you know, just odd cultural practices that 28 00:01:57,720 --> 00:02:00,320 Speaker 1: tried to explain the mechanics of the universe. It's possible 29 00:02:00,400 --> 00:02:03,080 Speaker 1: that a man would have picked that up and thought, oh, well, 30 00:02:03,120 --> 00:02:06,600 Speaker 1: today I'm going to find a wife, or I'm gonna 31 00:02:06,640 --> 00:02:10,080 Speaker 1: you know, there's gonna be some there's some correlation to 32 00:02:10,120 --> 00:02:11,839 Speaker 1: what happens in your life when you find a round 33 00:02:11,919 --> 00:02:15,320 Speaker 1: rock with a hole in it. But welcome to the barriers. 34 00:02:15,480 --> 00:02:19,000 Speaker 2: But I have a I have another thought about that. Okay, 35 00:02:19,520 --> 00:02:22,520 Speaker 2: we always wonder about the guy, you know, the cave 36 00:02:22,600 --> 00:02:24,559 Speaker 2: man or the prehistoric. 37 00:02:24,840 --> 00:02:27,639 Speaker 1: Inappropriate and offensive to call them cave man. Let's call 38 00:02:27,680 --> 00:02:30,160 Speaker 1: them prehistoric man. 39 00:02:31,160 --> 00:02:34,640 Speaker 2: The guy who invented the wheel. Maybe he didn't invent it, 40 00:02:34,680 --> 00:02:35,760 Speaker 2: Maybe he just found it. 41 00:02:36,120 --> 00:02:39,639 Speaker 3: That is brilliant. That could be a that could be 42 00:02:39,680 --> 00:02:40,360 Speaker 3: its own book. 43 00:02:40,600 --> 00:02:42,840 Speaker 2: Carry's got to finish this Sudoka that. 44 00:02:42,880 --> 00:02:45,640 Speaker 1: Dad's over here studying. Welcome to the bar geras rendered. 45 00:02:45,680 --> 00:02:47,280 Speaker 1: Dad got the believer hat on. 46 00:02:47,520 --> 00:02:48,880 Speaker 3: You bet, man, I dressed up. 47 00:02:49,200 --> 00:02:52,799 Speaker 1: This could be a whole new marketing campaign for you. 48 00:02:53,120 --> 00:02:55,440 Speaker 1: We have not talked about waterwitch in a long time, 49 00:02:55,480 --> 00:02:57,160 Speaker 1: so I don't really know where you stand on it 50 00:02:57,240 --> 00:03:01,120 Speaker 1: right now. But should you be a believer or I 51 00:03:01,160 --> 00:03:04,160 Speaker 1: could see like a new T shirt maybe with you 52 00:03:04,240 --> 00:03:06,079 Speaker 1: holding the pair of witching sticks. 53 00:03:06,160 --> 00:03:07,120 Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, I could. 54 00:03:07,320 --> 00:03:08,840 Speaker 1: You know, I could use the extra money. 55 00:03:09,320 --> 00:03:15,880 Speaker 5: Yeah, I charge for photoshopping deals all photoshop misty. 56 00:03:16,040 --> 00:03:18,480 Speaker 1: Welcome. It's been a while since we've had the crew 57 00:03:18,520 --> 00:03:19,040 Speaker 1: back together. 58 00:03:20,160 --> 00:03:21,200 Speaker 2: Itukem. 59 00:03:22,440 --> 00:03:25,079 Speaker 1: It's a lot of it's a lot of a lot 60 00:03:25,120 --> 00:03:29,920 Speaker 1: of new coombs here today. But I'm really excited to 61 00:03:29,919 --> 00:03:32,560 Speaker 1: talk about water witching and let me tell you, and 62 00:03:32,600 --> 00:03:35,880 Speaker 1: i'd like to hear y'all's thoughts on this. It's super 63 00:03:36,000 --> 00:03:39,680 Speaker 1: risky to do a podcast like this because if you're 64 00:03:39,680 --> 00:03:44,040 Speaker 1: a if you're a serious journalist, which I consider myself 65 00:03:44,280 --> 00:03:46,920 Speaker 1: a serious journalist. I mean that doesn't mean I always 66 00:03:46,960 --> 00:03:51,520 Speaker 1: talk about serious topics or topics of consequence necessarily, but 67 00:03:52,080 --> 00:03:54,360 Speaker 1: I take my reporting seriously. 68 00:03:54,400 --> 00:03:56,480 Speaker 3: If I tell a story, I want it to be accurate. 69 00:03:56,920 --> 00:03:59,920 Speaker 1: Now I do in the style of storytelling that I 70 00:04:00,160 --> 00:04:03,600 Speaker 1: do on the Bear Grease podcast. Look, they're journalists that 71 00:04:03,880 --> 00:04:07,680 Speaker 1: just report the facts and do not insert themselves into it. 72 00:04:08,200 --> 00:04:11,560 Speaker 1: That's most of the journalism, maybe not most, a percentage 73 00:04:11,560 --> 00:04:15,120 Speaker 1: of the journalism that we see, like a newscaster on 74 00:04:15,160 --> 00:04:18,400 Speaker 1: your local news station is basically just going to be 75 00:04:18,520 --> 00:04:22,280 Speaker 1: like at seven oh one pm tonight, a tractor trailer 76 00:04:22,360 --> 00:04:25,880 Speaker 1: rig ran into the bridge and ran off the road. 77 00:04:26,960 --> 00:04:30,479 Speaker 1: Authorities are responding now, and then they might input a 78 00:04:30,520 --> 00:04:33,920 Speaker 1: little bit of their their personal opinion at the end, 79 00:04:34,120 --> 00:04:36,320 Speaker 1: like I wonder what happened to him? And it's kind 80 00:04:36,360 --> 00:04:44,719 Speaker 1: of funny, point me, point ban the kind of journalism 81 00:04:44,760 --> 00:04:47,520 Speaker 1: I do on Bear Grease. I want to bring people 82 00:04:47,520 --> 00:04:50,520 Speaker 1: along on my journey to answer questions that I have, 83 00:04:51,320 --> 00:04:53,760 Speaker 1: you know, and so I try never to put my 84 00:04:53,920 --> 00:04:56,320 Speaker 1: thumb on the scale. But if I do, I'm telling 85 00:04:56,360 --> 00:04:59,039 Speaker 1: you that I'm doing it, you know, because that's where 86 00:04:59,080 --> 00:05:02,359 Speaker 1: authors get in trouble, is when they take research or 87 00:05:02,480 --> 00:05:04,680 Speaker 1: not get in trouble, but where they just create a 88 00:05:04,720 --> 00:05:07,919 Speaker 1: book or a piece of work that's not really that 89 00:05:08,000 --> 00:05:11,599 Speaker 1: doesn't really stand up against criticism because their thumbs on 90 00:05:11,640 --> 00:05:14,240 Speaker 1: the scale, like they're taking the research and they're trying 91 00:05:14,279 --> 00:05:17,400 Speaker 1: to push it to become what they want it to be. 92 00:05:18,360 --> 00:05:21,000 Speaker 1: It's possible that someone could listen to this episode of 93 00:05:21,000 --> 00:05:23,919 Speaker 1: Burgers and say I did that here. But I really 94 00:05:23,960 --> 00:05:30,239 Speaker 1: tried to be very upfront with the data that I had, 95 00:05:31,000 --> 00:05:39,919 Speaker 1: which was a many decades of being exposed to waterwitching, dowsing, rods, 96 00:05:40,520 --> 00:05:45,640 Speaker 1: these things, and what I know about the research on it, 97 00:05:46,120 --> 00:05:52,000 Speaker 1: this IDEO motor effect, the limited understanding of the actual 98 00:05:52,880 --> 00:05:55,760 Speaker 1: science that they did when they did blind tests with 99 00:05:55,880 --> 00:05:59,440 Speaker 1: water witchers and decided they couldn't find things underground anymore 100 00:05:59,440 --> 00:06:00,359 Speaker 1: than anybody else. 101 00:06:01,520 --> 00:06:02,760 Speaker 3: But but. 102 00:06:04,960 --> 00:06:07,760 Speaker 1: I think it's kind of foolish just to type in 103 00:06:07,880 --> 00:06:12,680 Speaker 1: Google and say what does What's what fuels dowsers and 104 00:06:12,720 --> 00:06:16,360 Speaker 1: water witchers and it says ideometer effect and you just go, Okay, 105 00:06:16,440 --> 00:06:20,760 Speaker 1: well that's what it is. Because I'm not convinced that 106 00:06:20,800 --> 00:06:27,680 Speaker 1: we're asking right questions. But what what was your impressions 107 00:06:27,720 --> 00:06:30,720 Speaker 1: of the of the of the podcast? We're just going 108 00:06:30,760 --> 00:06:34,240 Speaker 1: to jump right in, okay, bear. 109 00:06:36,000 --> 00:06:40,400 Speaker 5: Now, uh Hey. I found it very intriguing because I've 110 00:06:40,760 --> 00:06:45,200 Speaker 5: dowsed and water witched and you know, seen this stuff 111 00:06:45,240 --> 00:06:48,400 Speaker 5: and been involved known people who did it all my life, 112 00:06:49,440 --> 00:06:53,159 Speaker 5: and uh, to actually get in it and study it 113 00:06:53,240 --> 00:06:54,760 Speaker 5: and talk about it, I found. 114 00:06:54,560 --> 00:06:57,280 Speaker 1: It very intriguing. 115 00:06:57,640 --> 00:07:01,760 Speaker 2: Gary, what was the earliest the earliest time you remember 116 00:07:02,240 --> 00:07:04,279 Speaker 2: seeing someone do it or doing it yourself. 117 00:07:04,400 --> 00:07:05,360 Speaker 1: My uncle. 118 00:07:06,880 --> 00:07:12,480 Speaker 5: Was building a new house in Glenwood, Arkansas, and I 119 00:07:12,520 --> 00:07:15,280 Speaker 5: was probably a ten year old kid, and he could 120 00:07:15,400 --> 00:07:21,880 Speaker 5: stick went out, he dug well, and I'm pretty sure 121 00:07:21,920 --> 00:07:26,520 Speaker 5: it worked. I don't remember the results, but that that 122 00:07:26,640 --> 00:07:29,560 Speaker 5: was he did it. Yeah, he did it. Yeah, Yeah. 123 00:07:29,760 --> 00:07:34,680 Speaker 5: And I talked to his daughter about that, and she 124 00:07:34,880 --> 00:07:37,200 Speaker 5: remembered it. She remembered him doing that. 125 00:07:37,520 --> 00:07:45,160 Speaker 1: And anyway, I'm I am amazed at the the ubiquitous 126 00:07:45,240 --> 00:07:47,480 Speaker 1: nature of knowledge of water witching in this part of 127 00:07:47,520 --> 00:07:54,200 Speaker 1: the world, because I don't think it's that way everywhere. Partly, 128 00:07:54,640 --> 00:07:56,680 Speaker 1: we talked about it on the podcast. If you live 129 00:07:56,760 --> 00:07:59,040 Speaker 1: over a major aquifer, which there's a lot of parts 130 00:07:59,040 --> 00:08:02,080 Speaker 1: of the country, like in the Grand Prairie in East 131 00:08:02,160 --> 00:08:05,880 Speaker 1: Arkansas on the Mississippi River, there's these giant aquifers, and 132 00:08:06,560 --> 00:08:09,200 Speaker 1: there's no question that there is water one hundred foot 133 00:08:09,200 --> 00:08:12,640 Speaker 1: down or sixty foot down or two hundred foot down. 134 00:08:13,040 --> 00:08:17,120 Speaker 1: You don't even have to guess. And so naturally in 135 00:08:17,160 --> 00:08:21,040 Speaker 1: those areas there's not as many water witchers, or at 136 00:08:21,120 --> 00:08:23,080 Speaker 1: least it's not as common because you don't it's not 137 00:08:23,120 --> 00:08:25,160 Speaker 1: a question that has to be answered. 138 00:08:25,160 --> 00:08:27,920 Speaker 4: Kind of gravitates towards like mountain culture. 139 00:08:27,520 --> 00:08:31,680 Speaker 1: A little bit. Well, I think, so I wouldn't have known. 140 00:08:32,200 --> 00:08:34,240 Speaker 1: I mean, I'm not an expert on this at all, 141 00:08:34,400 --> 00:08:39,360 Speaker 1: so I really just kind of was answering these questions 142 00:08:39,360 --> 00:08:42,160 Speaker 1: that I had. So I haven't really pulled the world 143 00:08:43,000 --> 00:08:45,760 Speaker 1: to be like, where does this happen? But Roger Quinton, 144 00:08:46,160 --> 00:08:50,480 Speaker 1: my buddy, Roger Quinton, who is just a classic Ozark 145 00:08:50,720 --> 00:08:53,760 Speaker 1: cattleman over here, just I knew I hadn't talked to 146 00:08:53,920 --> 00:08:56,280 Speaker 1: Roger in a while, and I had no doubt that 147 00:08:56,360 --> 00:08:59,120 Speaker 1: Roger would give me good information on water witching. I 148 00:08:59,240 --> 00:09:01,160 Speaker 1: never heard of talk about it a day in his life. 149 00:09:01,480 --> 00:09:03,920 Speaker 1: And I called him and I said, Roger, what do 150 00:09:03,920 --> 00:09:07,439 Speaker 1: you know about water witching? And he was just like, oh, man, 151 00:09:07,640 --> 00:09:10,240 Speaker 1: I don't know nothing about water witch and barbera bruh. 152 00:09:10,480 --> 00:09:11,680 Speaker 3: And then he said, now. 153 00:09:11,559 --> 00:09:13,760 Speaker 1: I did witch a well for Belly last year and 154 00:09:13,800 --> 00:09:16,679 Speaker 1: we got fifty gallons of water and he and he 155 00:09:16,760 --> 00:09:19,160 Speaker 1: knew a lot about water witching. And he couldn't believe 156 00:09:19,200 --> 00:09:22,400 Speaker 1: I wanted to. He couldn't believe I wanted to interview him, 157 00:09:22,720 --> 00:09:26,480 Speaker 1: because in his mind, he's just kind of he doesn't 158 00:09:26,520 --> 00:09:29,040 Speaker 1: know much about it, but but he actually does. But 159 00:09:29,200 --> 00:09:33,439 Speaker 1: what he said that was so just spelled it out, 160 00:09:33,720 --> 00:09:38,160 Speaker 1: was he he described those four wells within like two 161 00:09:38,240 --> 00:09:41,320 Speaker 1: hundred and fifty yards of each other. You know, it 162 00:09:41,400 --> 00:09:43,920 Speaker 1: was on a border of his property. So like one 163 00:09:43,920 --> 00:09:45,960 Speaker 1: of the wells was on his property, one was on 164 00:09:46,040 --> 00:09:48,880 Speaker 1: a neighbor, one was on another neighbor. And there was 165 00:09:49,720 --> 00:09:53,439 Speaker 1: two good wells, one well with natural gas, one sulfur water. 166 00:09:54,040 --> 00:09:56,400 Speaker 1: And then he said, there's places in the valley he 167 00:09:56,440 --> 00:09:58,560 Speaker 1: lives where you could drill thousand feet and not get water. 168 00:09:59,440 --> 00:10:03,760 Speaker 1: And so you kind of start to see culturally socially, like, 169 00:10:03,880 --> 00:10:07,480 Speaker 1: especially before modern well drilling, stuff like this is a 170 00:10:07,559 --> 00:10:12,160 Speaker 1: question that the people needed answered that the consequence was 171 00:10:12,200 --> 00:10:15,040 Speaker 1: often a matter of feet, like if you dug it 172 00:10:15,520 --> 00:10:19,880 Speaker 1: there or there could make a difference in Karce terrain, 173 00:10:20,920 --> 00:10:23,920 Speaker 1: It really could. And so you know, so many of 174 00:10:23,960 --> 00:10:29,520 Speaker 1: these kind of folk remedies answer a fundamental question that 175 00:10:29,559 --> 00:10:34,200 Speaker 1: people just don't have insight into, you know. But I 176 00:10:34,240 --> 00:10:39,000 Speaker 1: wanted to say this in the intro to people are 177 00:10:39,040 --> 00:10:42,320 Speaker 1: going to roast me. I put a I put I 178 00:10:42,360 --> 00:10:47,240 Speaker 1: put a a video up of Carl Holt, which in 179 00:10:47,320 --> 00:10:50,880 Speaker 1: water on my Instagram today and that dad to me 180 00:10:51,160 --> 00:10:55,560 Speaker 1: was like walking into a gauntlet. I knew that the 181 00:10:55,600 --> 00:10:59,720 Speaker 1: world was going to roast me for the unintelligence of 182 00:10:59,800 --> 00:11:03,080 Speaker 1: me like believing this stuff just when you throw it 183 00:11:03,080 --> 00:11:05,400 Speaker 1: to the mass audience. I think if any one of 184 00:11:05,400 --> 00:11:08,680 Speaker 1: those people listen to my podcast, they would see that 185 00:11:08,840 --> 00:11:11,240 Speaker 1: I was not trying to answer the question of does 186 00:11:11,320 --> 00:11:12,480 Speaker 1: water witching work? 187 00:11:12,800 --> 00:11:14,800 Speaker 2: Right, No, that's not the question. 188 00:11:16,920 --> 00:11:20,200 Speaker 1: I'm not convinced that it does. No, to be honest 189 00:11:20,200 --> 00:11:24,120 Speaker 1: with him, I'm not sure that water witching actually you 190 00:11:24,200 --> 00:11:30,079 Speaker 1: can find underground water. But something moves the sticks, and 191 00:11:30,120 --> 00:11:32,560 Speaker 1: that's that's the answer to the question. 192 00:11:33,160 --> 00:11:35,760 Speaker 3: What moves the sticks? 193 00:11:35,960 --> 00:11:40,439 Speaker 1: Period. So for for all you people out there that 194 00:11:40,800 --> 00:11:44,480 Speaker 1: commented on my Instagram before you listen to the podcast, 195 00:11:44,559 --> 00:11:47,000 Speaker 1: I'm sorry that I'm I'm listening. 196 00:11:47,040 --> 00:11:49,760 Speaker 6: I'm looking at some of these comments. You got a 197 00:11:49,800 --> 00:11:51,840 Speaker 6: lot of people who believe in it. 198 00:11:52,080 --> 00:11:54,280 Speaker 1: Yeah, there was actually the home team came in. 199 00:11:54,480 --> 00:11:56,400 Speaker 3: Yeah, he appreciated. 200 00:11:56,559 --> 00:11:58,240 Speaker 6: And then you got a couple of people who are 201 00:11:58,840 --> 00:12:04,319 Speaker 6: micro analyzing your guys. Knuckles and hands and width a 202 00:12:04,400 --> 00:12:07,280 Speaker 6: part at the beginning versus the end, which also is 203 00:12:07,360 --> 00:12:09,520 Speaker 6: kind of tricky to do when someone's walking towards you. 204 00:12:10,960 --> 00:12:16,240 Speaker 1: Why I put two different angles and on of the 205 00:12:16,320 --> 00:12:20,120 Speaker 1: video and I didn't expect it to translate. I truly 206 00:12:20,160 --> 00:12:21,880 Speaker 1: didn't expect it to translate. 207 00:12:22,400 --> 00:12:28,920 Speaker 2: I think it's really like try it. Just try it. 208 00:12:29,080 --> 00:12:31,000 Speaker 2: I mean, grab a couple of coat hangers and go 209 00:12:31,040 --> 00:12:35,320 Speaker 2: try it. I mean, I keep saying it like I 210 00:12:35,440 --> 00:12:39,760 Speaker 2: was a skeptic. I thought it was somebody was I 211 00:12:39,800 --> 00:12:43,080 Speaker 2: thought it was IDEO motor or someone just moving it. 212 00:12:43,120 --> 00:12:44,959 Speaker 2: But when you put two rods in your hands, tell 213 00:12:45,040 --> 00:12:45,440 Speaker 2: it moved. 214 00:12:45,440 --> 00:12:47,120 Speaker 1: Tell what the idio motor effect. 215 00:12:47,160 --> 00:12:52,440 Speaker 2: The IDEO motor effect is that you you create subconscious movement, 216 00:12:52,600 --> 00:12:56,360 Speaker 2: like it's literally subconscious. You don't know you're doing it. 217 00:12:56,360 --> 00:13:01,839 Speaker 2: It looks like something's moving it, but it's actually you, yeah, subconsciously. 218 00:13:02,120 --> 00:13:05,640 Speaker 1: And if you type in on the internet, what makes 219 00:13:05,720 --> 00:13:07,120 Speaker 1: witching sticks move on? 220 00:13:08,160 --> 00:13:09,840 Speaker 3: That pops up very quickly. 221 00:13:13,000 --> 00:13:15,640 Speaker 1: I think to just accept that as true just because 222 00:13:15,640 --> 00:13:21,559 Speaker 1: the Google says it is not super super intelligent either. 223 00:13:21,679 --> 00:13:25,160 Speaker 1: Because I did some research on the audiometer effect and 224 00:13:25,360 --> 00:13:27,480 Speaker 1: I would love to get an expert. I would fly 225 00:13:27,520 --> 00:13:30,760 Speaker 1: across the country to talk to the national expert on 226 00:13:30,840 --> 00:13:36,199 Speaker 1: the audiometer motor audio motor effect. I truly would because 227 00:13:37,840 --> 00:13:40,360 Speaker 1: basically what you're looking at there, Well, I. 228 00:13:40,320 --> 00:13:42,640 Speaker 6: Was looking at the things and now I'm looking at 229 00:13:42,640 --> 00:13:44,920 Speaker 6: ideo motor effect because I think you need have to 230 00:13:44,960 --> 00:13:46,959 Speaker 6: find it for people who have not did not listen 231 00:13:46,960 --> 00:13:47,400 Speaker 6: to your thing. 232 00:13:47,880 --> 00:13:52,959 Speaker 1: Yeah, basically, it's where your thoughts trigger. Yeah, so it's 233 00:13:53,000 --> 00:13:57,560 Speaker 1: a psychological phenomenon where unconscious thoughts and intentions can influence 234 00:13:57,880 --> 00:14:05,320 Speaker 1: bodily movements and actions, sometimes leading to seemingly inexplicable physical responses. 235 00:14:06,080 --> 00:14:12,280 Speaker 1: So basically it's saying that the person holding the rods 236 00:14:12,520 --> 00:14:16,400 Speaker 1: is moving in himself and that that's a that's the 237 00:14:16,440 --> 00:14:18,680 Speaker 1: first thing that you would think if you saw somebody 238 00:14:18,720 --> 00:14:20,800 Speaker 1: doing it, it's like, well, yeah, you're just you're just 239 00:14:20,880 --> 00:14:24,920 Speaker 1: moving it down. If if it is in fact that 240 00:14:25,240 --> 00:14:29,200 Speaker 1: audio motor effect, that's pretty cool that we can be 241 00:14:29,480 --> 00:14:33,600 Speaker 1: that unconscious. And it makes me wonder what other areas 242 00:14:33,600 --> 00:14:40,760 Speaker 1: of life are we completely divorced from reality? Because if 243 00:14:40,760 --> 00:14:42,560 Speaker 1: you take a pair of clotheshangers out in your yard 244 00:14:42,600 --> 00:14:45,200 Speaker 1: and walk over your waterline, let me know what happens. 245 00:14:46,400 --> 00:14:50,080 Speaker 1: It doesn't not work sometimes and does work sometimes. 246 00:14:52,000 --> 00:14:53,360 Speaker 6: It Wait what are you saying? 247 00:14:53,520 --> 00:14:56,720 Speaker 1: I mean it's not it works every time? 248 00:14:56,800 --> 00:14:58,720 Speaker 3: Right, yeah, it works every time? 249 00:14:59,560 --> 00:15:00,600 Speaker 1: What did you think, Misty. 250 00:15:01,640 --> 00:15:03,680 Speaker 6: I thought it was really interesting. I did bring my 251 00:15:03,680 --> 00:15:06,000 Speaker 6: psychology book from my color section. 252 00:15:06,240 --> 00:15:08,160 Speaker 1: We get we let bear go, Yeah, let go. 253 00:15:08,400 --> 00:15:11,760 Speaker 4: I'll yeah, I'm sorry, Okay, I'm I'm kind of torn, 254 00:15:11,920 --> 00:15:14,000 Speaker 4: like they were there were you know, like whenever you 255 00:15:14,040 --> 00:15:16,600 Speaker 4: say something like that and whenever you know, like I've 256 00:15:16,600 --> 00:15:19,960 Speaker 4: done it before and the sticks cross. But then also 257 00:15:20,160 --> 00:15:24,080 Speaker 4: like whenever you really dug into like you know, individual 258 00:15:24,720 --> 00:15:28,400 Speaker 4: situations where like it worked, sometimes it didn't work. You know, 259 00:15:28,440 --> 00:15:30,480 Speaker 4: it's kind of fifty to fifty. I'm a little bit torn. 260 00:15:31,280 --> 00:15:34,680 Speaker 4: But here's what I think. I think that this is 261 00:15:34,720 --> 00:15:36,440 Speaker 4: maybe one of those things you just don't look too 262 00:15:36,480 --> 00:15:39,320 Speaker 4: deep into. You just kind of like, you know, it's 263 00:15:39,400 --> 00:15:41,920 Speaker 4: like you don't have to have the science on it. 264 00:15:42,600 --> 00:15:44,280 Speaker 4: Like I whenever I was listening to it, I was 265 00:15:44,360 --> 00:15:47,000 Speaker 4: kind of thinking about like you know, like sometimes whenever 266 00:15:47,000 --> 00:15:50,720 Speaker 4: you're hunting, there's like a logical way to go about something, 267 00:15:51,200 --> 00:15:52,920 Speaker 4: but while you're out there, you feel like you should 268 00:15:52,920 --> 00:15:55,840 Speaker 4: do something else that makes no sense. And I've had 269 00:15:55,880 --> 00:15:58,000 Speaker 4: a lot of success doing that instead of doing what 270 00:15:58,160 --> 00:16:01,720 Speaker 4: made sense. And I feel like it's like not, you know, 271 00:16:01,760 --> 00:16:05,560 Speaker 4: there's no science behind it, Like there's no real logical thinking. 272 00:16:05,600 --> 00:16:08,560 Speaker 4: And I think on something like this, we're looking too 273 00:16:08,600 --> 00:16:10,480 Speaker 4: deep into the logic and. 274 00:16:10,480 --> 00:16:11,920 Speaker 1: Maybe there's there's no logic. 275 00:16:12,600 --> 00:16:16,400 Speaker 4: Maybe it's just stick's just cross, you know. So I 276 00:16:16,440 --> 00:16:19,080 Speaker 4: don't know, I'm kind of torn because like, you know, 277 00:16:19,280 --> 00:16:21,240 Speaker 4: like there is a lot of it that's kind of 278 00:16:22,920 --> 00:16:26,160 Speaker 4: like you know, it's just kind of like skepticism a 279 00:16:26,240 --> 00:16:30,880 Speaker 4: little bit or like you know, but yeah, I don't know, 280 00:16:30,960 --> 00:16:31,760 Speaker 4: I'm kind of torn. 281 00:16:31,920 --> 00:16:34,920 Speaker 1: Well, and I think that's where that's where I ended 282 00:16:34,960 --> 00:16:38,840 Speaker 1: too was And you know, if you haven't listened to 283 00:16:38,840 --> 00:16:42,200 Speaker 1: the episode, that that's the spoiler, is that at the end, 284 00:16:42,440 --> 00:16:48,640 Speaker 1: I'm really no closer to a a synopsis that that 285 00:16:48,720 --> 00:16:52,280 Speaker 1: wasn't at the beginning because I would believe the ideo 286 00:16:52,400 --> 00:16:55,640 Speaker 1: motor effect. If I sat with an expert today and 287 00:16:55,680 --> 00:16:59,640 Speaker 1: he and I could understand how the sticks and Carl 288 00:17:00,080 --> 00:17:06,560 Speaker 1: Holt's hands. Hey, I'm a smart fella, smart enough, I 289 00:17:06,640 --> 00:17:10,800 Speaker 1: promise you anybody that was standing three feet from Carl 290 00:17:10,880 --> 00:17:16,280 Speaker 1: Holt and saw those sticks, you just would be like 291 00:17:16,440 --> 00:17:21,360 Speaker 1: they're moving, Like I'm not that gullible that they literally 292 00:17:21,440 --> 00:17:24,679 Speaker 1: twisted in his hands while his hand And that was 293 00:17:24,760 --> 00:17:27,680 Speaker 1: my point, is okay, if it is the IDEO motor fact. 294 00:17:27,720 --> 00:17:31,080 Speaker 1: And again some expert potentially could tell me how this 295 00:17:31,119 --> 00:17:34,160 Speaker 1: is possible. Now, if the human palm was lined with 296 00:17:34,240 --> 00:17:40,520 Speaker 1: like snakeskin scales or centipede leg and you could you 297 00:17:40,520 --> 00:17:43,280 Speaker 1: could hold something in your hand like that turkey leg 298 00:17:43,400 --> 00:17:48,080 Speaker 1: right there and make it twist. If we could do 299 00:17:48,160 --> 00:17:51,359 Speaker 1: that physically, I would be like, yeah, it's the IDEO motor. 300 00:17:52,280 --> 00:17:54,760 Speaker 1: It's it's like him holding that right there and that 301 00:17:54,800 --> 00:17:59,399 Speaker 1: turkey leg twisting. It's like your hand didn't twist the 302 00:17:59,400 --> 00:18:02,280 Speaker 1: turkey leg. Do you understand? That's the only part. And 303 00:18:02,760 --> 00:18:05,760 Speaker 1: I have to get excited about that because that's just 304 00:18:05,800 --> 00:18:07,000 Speaker 1: what I believe. 305 00:18:07,440 --> 00:18:09,879 Speaker 2: Here's the thing that throws another wrench into it to me, 306 00:18:10,040 --> 00:18:13,159 Speaker 2: Like I could see where putting the metal rods in 307 00:18:13,200 --> 00:18:17,000 Speaker 2: your hands, Like I thought it was interesting what Carl said. 308 00:18:17,000 --> 00:18:19,640 Speaker 2: He said, I think it's something in someone's body, Yeah 309 00:18:19,640 --> 00:18:21,720 Speaker 2: that makes it do it. Like I could see there 310 00:18:21,760 --> 00:18:26,520 Speaker 2: being some kind of an electromagnetic force in there that 311 00:18:26,560 --> 00:18:31,440 Speaker 2: could cause those metal rods to move. I don't understand 312 00:18:31,440 --> 00:18:33,280 Speaker 2: how it translates with a green limb. 313 00:18:34,600 --> 00:18:39,560 Speaker 1: Yeah. Well that's what doctor Kinnefect said was that if 314 00:18:39,560 --> 00:18:42,840 Speaker 1: a physicist were trying to analyze this These are two 315 00:18:43,760 --> 00:18:45,200 Speaker 1: completely different questions. 316 00:18:45,400 --> 00:18:47,960 Speaker 2: We need a physicist to go water witch with us 317 00:18:49,400 --> 00:18:50,480 Speaker 2: and be. 318 00:18:52,119 --> 00:18:56,280 Speaker 1: Well, they wouldn't. I don't think they'd have any more 319 00:18:56,320 --> 00:18:58,600 Speaker 1: conclusions than we already have. 320 00:18:58,840 --> 00:19:02,920 Speaker 2: I mean, but there's always so much skepticism, you know 321 00:19:02,920 --> 00:19:05,880 Speaker 2: what I mean, they they're they're they're taking people's word 322 00:19:05,920 --> 00:19:09,240 Speaker 2: for it. I want them to try it. Yeah, let's 323 00:19:09,359 --> 00:19:10,920 Speaker 2: kidnap ken Effect and take him out. 324 00:19:11,160 --> 00:19:12,639 Speaker 1: Oh, he would do it. He was He was a 325 00:19:12,680 --> 00:19:18,280 Speaker 1: cool guy. Quick story about doctor Kenefect. Haven't seen him 326 00:19:18,480 --> 00:19:21,840 Speaker 1: first of all. This episode I thought just laid out 327 00:19:21,920 --> 00:19:25,560 Speaker 1: really fun. I mean, part of the other thing. The 328 00:19:25,640 --> 00:19:28,600 Speaker 1: reason I talked about this is just I'm interested in 329 00:19:28,600 --> 00:19:33,480 Speaker 1: how culturally people handle water witching, you know how how 330 00:19:33,600 --> 00:19:36,359 Speaker 1: Carl Holt when I said he knew, He's like, there's 331 00:19:36,359 --> 00:19:40,320 Speaker 1: no science behind this. Science says it's fake. And I'm like, 332 00:19:40,760 --> 00:19:42,680 Speaker 1: do you have a problem with that? And I mean 333 00:19:42,920 --> 00:19:45,719 Speaker 1: he's like, no, I mean it works. 334 00:19:46,119 --> 00:19:46,880 Speaker 3: That was his thing. 335 00:19:46,920 --> 00:19:49,919 Speaker 1: That's what That's pretty much what all the people on 336 00:19:49,960 --> 00:19:52,760 Speaker 1: the podcast said are just like, hey, I don't need 337 00:19:52,800 --> 00:19:58,520 Speaker 1: science to validate this. It works. But it was really 338 00:19:58,520 --> 00:20:01,800 Speaker 1: cool here and Mark Findahl, my dear friend up the road, 339 00:20:01,840 --> 00:20:05,680 Speaker 1: here talk about Seth Timmins, that old man. And now 340 00:20:05,800 --> 00:20:09,720 Speaker 1: I hope that people understood that what Seth is doing, 341 00:20:11,240 --> 00:20:14,119 Speaker 1: I think we could say, I mean that's like stretching 342 00:20:14,960 --> 00:20:15,840 Speaker 1: the rules a lot. 343 00:20:16,040 --> 00:20:17,480 Speaker 6: Which part of it it. 344 00:20:17,560 --> 00:20:22,600 Speaker 1: Was a gift or well, he cures would carry them 345 00:20:23,200 --> 00:20:25,679 Speaker 1: with him, pill bottles with him that were full of 346 00:20:25,760 --> 00:20:29,080 Speaker 1: whatever he was looking for, and so he would take 347 00:20:29,119 --> 00:20:31,879 Speaker 1: his he would take his rods, and if he wanted 348 00:20:31,880 --> 00:20:36,720 Speaker 1: to find sulfur water or well, he actually mainly used 349 00:20:36,720 --> 00:20:39,640 Speaker 1: his pill bottles for finding natural gas. So he had 350 00:20:39,720 --> 00:20:43,560 Speaker 1: natural gas sand in one, good water in one. So 351 00:20:43,600 --> 00:20:46,240 Speaker 1: he basically his rods might indicate and he might not 352 00:20:46,320 --> 00:20:49,000 Speaker 1: know if it's sulfur water regular water. So he'd put 353 00:20:49,080 --> 00:20:51,440 Speaker 1: sulfur water in his hand and see if it indicated, 354 00:20:51,680 --> 00:20:53,160 Speaker 1: and if it did, he'd be like, man, you got 355 00:20:53,160 --> 00:20:56,879 Speaker 1: sulfur water. And he could also had mechanisms to be 356 00:20:56,880 --> 00:20:59,640 Speaker 1: able to tell how deep it was and all this stuff. 357 00:21:00,119 --> 00:21:02,760 Speaker 2: I wonder if he kept a diary or anything of 358 00:21:04,160 --> 00:21:07,520 Speaker 2: all his water witching, right, because talking to Colin Eaton, 359 00:21:08,320 --> 00:21:10,359 Speaker 2: I mean he's like, he's like, I do this five 360 00:21:10,400 --> 00:21:12,439 Speaker 2: times a week, and I can do it with one 361 00:21:12,480 --> 00:21:13,600 Speaker 2: hundred percent certainty. 362 00:21:14,080 --> 00:21:19,320 Speaker 6: Yeah, Yeah, it's it's tricky because when you when you 363 00:21:19,359 --> 00:21:22,120 Speaker 6: hear people who do stuff, and I understand all the reasons, 364 00:21:22,320 --> 00:21:24,639 Speaker 6: but when you you hear people I'm kind of a 365 00:21:24,640 --> 00:21:28,919 Speaker 6: bear where I've had enough experiences and I think that 366 00:21:29,000 --> 00:21:32,560 Speaker 6: there's you know, there's a natural world and and and 367 00:21:32,600 --> 00:21:35,479 Speaker 6: that has laws that govern it, but that's not the 368 00:21:35,480 --> 00:21:38,160 Speaker 6: only world we interface with, and and I just think 369 00:21:38,200 --> 00:21:42,240 Speaker 6: that when you I don't know, I tend to on 370 00:21:42,560 --> 00:21:45,760 Speaker 6: this kind of stuff that has this many different potential 371 00:21:46,760 --> 00:21:50,360 Speaker 6: potential ways to measure it in any Yeah, I tend 372 00:21:50,359 --> 00:21:52,880 Speaker 6: to go with the people who have experienced over because 373 00:21:52,920 --> 00:21:55,359 Speaker 6: I don't trust the lab in that scenario. I know 374 00:21:55,480 --> 00:21:57,720 Speaker 6: it's not going to work. I know you cannot measure 375 00:21:57,800 --> 00:22:01,359 Speaker 6: some things in a lab because the circumstances the lab 376 00:22:01,400 --> 00:22:03,679 Speaker 6: are not the same. But when I hear someone say, 377 00:22:03,800 --> 00:22:06,320 Speaker 6: I've done this a thousand times in the last three years, 378 00:22:06,560 --> 00:22:08,760 Speaker 6: I'm going to go with what that guy says, because 379 00:22:08,760 --> 00:22:12,240 Speaker 6: I trust that more than this lab experience of just 380 00:22:12,320 --> 00:22:15,359 Speaker 6: at working in social science and even in physical science, 381 00:22:15,440 --> 00:22:18,520 Speaker 6: it labs have some limitations. 382 00:22:19,560 --> 00:22:23,600 Speaker 1: Doctor kin Effect's story was so spot on when he 383 00:22:23,640 --> 00:22:26,600 Speaker 1: gave the example of the Russian lab that they thought 384 00:22:26,640 --> 00:22:29,880 Speaker 1: it was fraudulent because they couldn't replicate this thing anywhere. 385 00:22:29,920 --> 00:22:31,840 Speaker 1: And they go there and they watch what they do, 386 00:22:31,920 --> 00:22:34,960 Speaker 1: and the sky, you know, puts this ear grease. He 387 00:22:35,080 --> 00:22:36,760 Speaker 1: runs the wire behind his ear. 388 00:22:37,400 --> 00:22:40,399 Speaker 2: It's ear grease, not bear grease, right right, And. 389 00:22:40,280 --> 00:22:41,000 Speaker 1: That is what. 390 00:22:41,520 --> 00:22:45,080 Speaker 6: There is a similar podcast this in the Soviet in 391 00:22:45,160 --> 00:22:48,040 Speaker 6: Russia called ear Grease. 392 00:22:50,600 --> 00:22:53,760 Speaker 1: That's that is what. And I talked to doctor Kenfect 393 00:22:53,840 --> 00:22:56,560 Speaker 1: for over an hour and you heard like seventeen minutes 394 00:22:56,680 --> 00:23:00,440 Speaker 1: or maybe like nine minutes of him talking. And that's baseasically, 395 00:23:01,160 --> 00:23:04,480 Speaker 1: we just went round and round about like what exactly 396 00:23:04,520 --> 00:23:08,560 Speaker 1: are we studying? Because the difference between Seth Timmins born 397 00:23:08,520 --> 00:23:11,440 Speaker 1: in nineteen twelve that carries around pill bottles sulfur water 398 00:23:11,520 --> 00:23:15,600 Speaker 1: and good water and saltwater, and Colin Deaton, who works 399 00:23:15,680 --> 00:23:19,320 Speaker 1: up here at this excavation company in northwest Arkansas, that 400 00:23:19,359 --> 00:23:24,159 Speaker 1: which is utility lines, you might as well be comparing, 401 00:23:24,440 --> 00:23:29,080 Speaker 1: you know, an apple farmer to a boat captain, you know, 402 00:23:29,200 --> 00:23:33,680 Speaker 1: on the Atlantic Ocean, like they're just doing different things, yep, 403 00:23:34,560 --> 00:23:39,119 Speaker 1: completely different, and yet we find these correlation points. And 404 00:23:39,200 --> 00:23:43,400 Speaker 1: you know, the skeptic inside if I was playing devil's advocate. 405 00:23:44,000 --> 00:23:47,399 Speaker 1: I would say it's possible that somebody like a Colin 406 00:23:48,720 --> 00:23:53,600 Speaker 1: would be way more in tune with the world than 407 00:23:53,640 --> 00:23:58,840 Speaker 1: he even realizes. When he steps on to a job site. 408 00:24:00,160 --> 00:24:05,000 Speaker 1: He maybe doesn't subconsciously know, but he's seen so many 409 00:24:05,200 --> 00:24:08,560 Speaker 1: that he knows where that water line is, right, I mean, 410 00:24:09,119 --> 00:24:13,160 Speaker 1: and and so the ideo motor effect comes into practice 411 00:24:13,200 --> 00:24:16,280 Speaker 1: and confirms what he thinks, and most of the time 412 00:24:16,320 --> 00:24:20,119 Speaker 1: he's right. I'm not saying I believe that. I'm just 413 00:24:20,200 --> 00:24:22,040 Speaker 1: saying that could be sad, and you would have to 414 00:24:22,119 --> 00:24:25,920 Speaker 1: kind of be like maybe, because I do think that 415 00:24:26,040 --> 00:24:30,200 Speaker 1: humans are masters, and we learned this when we were 416 00:24:31,160 --> 00:24:35,680 Speaker 1: living in the wild. But we're masters of finding correlations 417 00:24:35,720 --> 00:24:40,520 Speaker 1: that help us be successful. I mean, we're masters at 418 00:24:40,920 --> 00:24:43,440 Speaker 1: I mean, we had to just look for anything that 419 00:24:43,480 --> 00:24:46,560 Speaker 1: we could to give us any insight into the future, 420 00:24:46,680 --> 00:24:49,800 Speaker 1: like bear grease. Like right here, I keep this on 421 00:24:50,240 --> 00:24:54,440 Speaker 1: this jar bear grease on my windowsill, and you see 422 00:24:54,440 --> 00:24:58,600 Speaker 1: it's bisected. It separates in this clear, clear olive oil 423 00:24:58,680 --> 00:25:02,359 Speaker 1: colored liquid and then this pak thicker liquid. In the 424 00:25:02,920 --> 00:25:06,920 Speaker 1: Indians in the Southwest United States used to put bear 425 00:25:07,040 --> 00:25:11,760 Speaker 1: oil in the scraped bladder of a deer. So that 426 00:25:11,840 --> 00:25:14,920 Speaker 1: it was translucent, and they forecasted the weather with bar 427 00:25:14,960 --> 00:25:20,800 Speaker 1: oil because barreil just ever so slightly changes with barometric pressure. 428 00:25:21,640 --> 00:25:25,720 Speaker 1: And for me to think that I could do that 429 00:25:25,840 --> 00:25:31,040 Speaker 1: as well as them, it's kind of crazy. Because they 430 00:25:31,080 --> 00:25:33,680 Speaker 1: lived in a world that didn't have the weather app 431 00:25:33,720 --> 00:25:36,119 Speaker 1: on their phone, that they didn't have a shelter over 432 00:25:36,160 --> 00:25:38,800 Speaker 1: their head quite like I have, and air conditioning. Their 433 00:25:38,920 --> 00:25:42,320 Speaker 1: entire existence was based upon them being able to have 434 00:25:42,400 --> 00:25:45,680 Speaker 1: some certainty about the future. And man, I just feel 435 00:25:45,680 --> 00:25:49,879 Speaker 1: like they were dialed in a way that we wouldn't be. 436 00:25:50,400 --> 00:25:54,120 Speaker 1: I mean, this temple that we live inside of, this body, 437 00:25:55,200 --> 00:25:57,600 Speaker 1: I think is capable of so much more than what 438 00:25:57,720 --> 00:26:01,359 Speaker 1: a modern human asks of it in terms of these 439 00:26:01,840 --> 00:26:07,479 Speaker 1: these things that that might not line up with all 440 00:26:07,560 --> 00:26:10,080 Speaker 1: the modern laws of physics. 441 00:26:10,359 --> 00:26:16,160 Speaker 6: I agree, I agree. 442 00:26:20,600 --> 00:26:24,480 Speaker 1: What about so misty doctor Newcomb here has brought out 443 00:26:24,520 --> 00:26:26,480 Speaker 1: her physics textbook. 444 00:26:26,200 --> 00:26:30,320 Speaker 6: Not physics, psychology, psychology different, different, because that's the question, 445 00:26:30,359 --> 00:26:30,679 Speaker 6: isn't it. 446 00:26:30,720 --> 00:26:33,680 Speaker 3: Is this a psychology question or a physics question? 447 00:26:34,560 --> 00:26:37,800 Speaker 6: And and you know, we were we were talking about 448 00:26:37,840 --> 00:26:39,800 Speaker 6: this all the time as Clay would go interview people. 449 00:26:40,040 --> 00:26:42,280 Speaker 6: And I think this makes a little more sense with 450 00:26:42,359 --> 00:26:44,199 Speaker 6: the metal kind of like what you were saying, the 451 00:26:44,240 --> 00:26:47,160 Speaker 6: metal ride versus the wood. But one of the things 452 00:26:47,200 --> 00:26:49,720 Speaker 6: I thought about, and I've thought about this in a 453 00:26:49,720 --> 00:26:52,120 Speaker 6: couple a couple of different times, and I'm not really 454 00:26:52,200 --> 00:26:54,400 Speaker 6: an expert, so I'm just kind of putting it out there. 455 00:26:54,640 --> 00:26:57,480 Speaker 6: But I just remember, in you know, your intro to 456 00:26:57,520 --> 00:27:02,080 Speaker 6: psychology class in college, they talk about neurons and synapses 457 00:27:02,359 --> 00:27:05,359 Speaker 6: and like, when you have a thought, there's actually and 458 00:27:05,400 --> 00:27:07,159 Speaker 6: I was gonna try to explain it, but I decided 459 00:27:07,200 --> 00:27:12,919 Speaker 6: it would be too boring. And but when you have 460 00:27:12,960 --> 00:27:15,880 Speaker 6: a thought, like every time you when you focus your mind, 461 00:27:16,000 --> 00:27:20,399 Speaker 6: there's a chemical reaction and a an electrical reaction happening 462 00:27:20,440 --> 00:27:23,560 Speaker 6: in your brain. I mean, I mean, that's that is 463 00:27:23,600 --> 00:27:26,480 Speaker 6: just truth. And and it's kind of kind of tricky 464 00:27:26,520 --> 00:27:29,640 Speaker 6: to explain. But well for someone like me who doesn't 465 00:27:29,680 --> 00:27:32,520 Speaker 6: explain it all the time, a psychology professor could probably 466 00:27:32,560 --> 00:27:36,400 Speaker 6: explain it very easily. But but the you know, those 467 00:27:36,400 --> 00:27:41,880 Speaker 6: synapses get get stronger the more you do something, and 468 00:27:41,880 --> 00:27:45,640 Speaker 6: and I'm just just and and and those those things 469 00:27:45,640 --> 00:27:47,840 Speaker 6: speed up. So to me, one of the things I 470 00:27:47,880 --> 00:27:52,159 Speaker 6: wonder is, and I I've heard people describe water witching 471 00:27:52,680 --> 00:27:55,879 Speaker 6: as when they concentrated hard and when that guy squeezed 472 00:27:55,960 --> 00:27:58,440 Speaker 6: real hard. And it's difficult for me not to see 473 00:27:58,440 --> 00:28:03,280 Speaker 6: how there might not be a chemical electromagnetic that reaction 474 00:28:03,320 --> 00:28:06,359 Speaker 6: that's happening in their brain when they do that, creating 475 00:28:06,400 --> 00:28:08,840 Speaker 6: some type of reaction with what's in the ground. 476 00:28:10,119 --> 00:28:12,480 Speaker 1: I'm oh, so you're saying. 477 00:28:13,119 --> 00:28:18,320 Speaker 2: The electro the elect the electro the process of the 478 00:28:18,320 --> 00:28:24,080 Speaker 2: neurons firing produces an electrical impulse that could be interacting 479 00:28:24,200 --> 00:28:27,760 Speaker 2: with whatever it is in the ground. 480 00:28:28,920 --> 00:28:30,479 Speaker 1: What makes I thought you were going to say that 481 00:28:30,560 --> 00:28:31,880 Speaker 1: was the ideo motor effect. 482 00:28:32,160 --> 00:28:34,720 Speaker 6: Well, no, I don't think. I mean I think that 483 00:28:34,840 --> 00:28:37,040 Speaker 6: what if you're what if your body because your body's 484 00:28:37,080 --> 00:28:40,040 Speaker 6: connected to the ground, what if there are actual electro 485 00:28:40,760 --> 00:28:44,000 Speaker 6: magnetic things happening. Yeah, because there is an electrical charge 486 00:28:44,000 --> 00:28:46,560 Speaker 6: when you think a thought. Yeah, and the more the 487 00:28:46,560 --> 00:28:50,360 Speaker 6: more you think something this, the stronger those the faster 488 00:28:50,440 --> 00:28:51,240 Speaker 6: those charges happen. 489 00:28:51,480 --> 00:28:55,440 Speaker 2: So, like you're saying, if you believe it, it could 490 00:28:55,520 --> 00:28:59,000 Speaker 2: be more. Yeah, lausible that. 491 00:28:59,120 --> 00:29:02,160 Speaker 6: Yeah, But I am not an expert. I'm not like 492 00:29:02,400 --> 00:29:05,040 Speaker 6: a psychiatrist. I'm not a psychology professor. This was my 493 00:29:05,120 --> 00:29:07,800 Speaker 6: intro to science, my intro to psychology class that I 494 00:29:07,800 --> 00:29:10,640 Speaker 6: get that information from. And I'm just saying, but why 495 00:29:10,680 --> 00:29:14,080 Speaker 6: wouldn't how why would that not have some impact that 496 00:29:14,160 --> 00:29:17,200 Speaker 6: electrical if there is an electrical charge when you focus 497 00:29:17,280 --> 00:29:19,760 Speaker 6: on something and there is a chemical churge. 498 00:29:19,520 --> 00:29:22,840 Speaker 1: That's a good point. Well, but that also could be 499 00:29:23,760 --> 00:29:27,960 Speaker 1: the mechanism of the audio motor effect is that when 500 00:29:28,040 --> 00:29:32,400 Speaker 1: you concentrate and think about it, that it produces electrical 501 00:29:32,560 --> 00:29:38,560 Speaker 1: charge that makes you do involuntary movements. But but I 502 00:29:38,600 --> 00:29:41,400 Speaker 1: see exactly what you're saying, and it really can't be 503 00:29:41,520 --> 00:29:46,480 Speaker 1: denied that the power of human belief or faith, even 504 00:29:46,520 --> 00:29:49,640 Speaker 1: people that don't believe in in the in the traditional 505 00:29:49,720 --> 00:29:52,640 Speaker 1: idea of like a biblical faith, like faith in a God, 506 00:29:52,760 --> 00:29:55,440 Speaker 1: that would that was within a spiritual faith in a 507 00:29:55,480 --> 00:29:59,200 Speaker 1: spiritual realm. You know, basically there would be a group 508 00:29:59,240 --> 00:30:01,480 Speaker 1: of people that would think all that there is is 509 00:30:01,520 --> 00:30:04,200 Speaker 1: what can be seen with the eyes and measured by physics. 510 00:30:05,840 --> 00:30:10,479 Speaker 1: So but even even those people will say, some crazy 511 00:30:10,520 --> 00:30:15,680 Speaker 1: stuff happens when people believe. Yeah, you know, I actually 512 00:30:15,680 --> 00:30:19,400 Speaker 1: heard I'm thinking of an actual conversation and a person 513 00:30:19,440 --> 00:30:21,320 Speaker 1: that I heard say that that It shocked me when 514 00:30:21,400 --> 00:30:22,080 Speaker 1: they said. 515 00:30:21,840 --> 00:30:24,320 Speaker 3: It because they were like Oh yeah, crazy. 516 00:30:24,040 --> 00:30:26,880 Speaker 1: Stuff happens when people just think it's going to happen, 517 00:30:27,640 --> 00:30:31,640 Speaker 1: which is which is interesting. But here's something that I 518 00:30:31,640 --> 00:30:35,200 Speaker 1: did with Carl. I had actually never been in the 519 00:30:35,240 --> 00:30:38,120 Speaker 1: presence of somebody that used a used. 520 00:30:37,920 --> 00:30:40,320 Speaker 3: A fork stick to witch water. 521 00:30:40,800 --> 00:30:43,520 Speaker 1: All my experience pretty much was finding water lines and 522 00:30:43,560 --> 00:30:47,600 Speaker 1: stuff and utility lines with with the witch and rods. 523 00:30:49,040 --> 00:30:53,280 Speaker 1: When Carl did it, I said, does it work if 524 00:30:53,280 --> 00:30:56,160 Speaker 1: you don't grip the stick real tight? And he was 525 00:30:56,200 --> 00:30:59,240 Speaker 1: like no, and he walked over it just holding it 526 00:30:59,280 --> 00:31:04,120 Speaker 1: real light and it it didn't bob down. And if 527 00:31:04,200 --> 00:31:08,800 Speaker 1: you took if you took a if you took a jig, 528 00:31:09,160 --> 00:31:11,280 Speaker 1: like if you had a remote control car with a 529 00:31:11,560 --> 00:31:14,840 Speaker 1: stick on it that could hold the witching sticks and 530 00:31:14,880 --> 00:31:19,160 Speaker 1: you drove that remote control car around, I'm quite certain 531 00:31:19,280 --> 00:31:22,600 Speaker 1: the rods wouldn't move. And that's why Carl said, I 532 00:31:22,640 --> 00:31:25,240 Speaker 1: think it has something to do with your body, which 533 00:31:25,440 --> 00:31:27,360 Speaker 1: someone who is trying to build a case for the 534 00:31:27,360 --> 00:31:30,480 Speaker 1: IDEO motor, in which they do right, you wouldn't have 535 00:31:30,560 --> 00:31:31,960 Speaker 1: to try to build the case. You would say, well, 536 00:31:32,160 --> 00:31:35,840 Speaker 1: obviously it's IDEO motor because you have to be holding 537 00:31:35,880 --> 00:31:38,719 Speaker 1: it for your body to subconsciously move and again, the 538 00:31:38,760 --> 00:31:42,440 Speaker 1: only thing that's keeping me from fully buying the IDEO 539 00:31:42,520 --> 00:31:45,840 Speaker 1: motor thing is I just don't understand the physics of 540 00:31:45,880 --> 00:31:49,440 Speaker 1: how if I griped that turkey leg that hard, that 541 00:31:49,440 --> 00:31:51,640 Speaker 1: that turkey leg can twist in my hand and it's 542 00:31:51,680 --> 00:31:54,600 Speaker 1: me subconsciously doing it. Now if I turned my hand, yeah, 543 00:31:55,000 --> 00:31:58,920 Speaker 1: I'm telling you the wood bent with Carl like it 544 00:31:59,120 --> 00:32:01,479 Speaker 1: it like it like shook. 545 00:32:02,440 --> 00:32:05,120 Speaker 6: And the other side of that is, if this is 546 00:32:05,160 --> 00:32:08,120 Speaker 6: an IDEO motor thing, how do you know where the 547 00:32:08,160 --> 00:32:10,959 Speaker 6: water is? To think that that's where the water is? 548 00:32:11,720 --> 00:32:15,960 Speaker 1: Well, now, that is where all the hocus pocus potentially 549 00:32:16,000 --> 00:32:18,080 Speaker 1: comes because like when me and Carl walked up in 550 00:32:18,120 --> 00:32:20,560 Speaker 1: the backyard, we knew that there was a well there, 551 00:32:21,160 --> 00:32:23,840 Speaker 1: so our brains were like, there's water there, So it 552 00:32:23,880 --> 00:32:29,840 Speaker 1: would clearly if it was fake, would signal there because 553 00:32:29,880 --> 00:32:33,640 Speaker 1: we knew it. If you were a water witcher walk 554 00:32:33,720 --> 00:32:36,000 Speaker 1: if I told y'all want to well in this acre 555 00:32:36,120 --> 00:32:39,920 Speaker 1: land and you start walking circles, where were gonna say, Josh. 556 00:32:39,640 --> 00:32:42,600 Speaker 2: Well, I just that whole thing. Those witch and rods. 557 00:32:42,960 --> 00:32:46,000 Speaker 2: I ordered those witch and rods right there, Yeah, and 558 00:32:46,280 --> 00:32:49,200 Speaker 2: I took them out. I took them out because I 559 00:32:49,240 --> 00:32:52,200 Speaker 2: knew where my water line was. And I walked over 560 00:32:52,240 --> 00:32:54,560 Speaker 2: the water line and I was like, they are not moving. 561 00:32:55,640 --> 00:32:57,360 Speaker 2: And I walked back forth. And I went out today 562 00:32:57,360 --> 00:33:00,680 Speaker 2: and realized my water line is actually not there. It's 563 00:33:00,720 --> 00:33:03,719 Speaker 2: in a different spot. Really yeah, And I couldn't get 564 00:33:03,760 --> 00:33:06,280 Speaker 2: him to move. And when I walked over my water line, 565 00:33:06,320 --> 00:33:06,720 Speaker 2: they moved. 566 00:33:07,160 --> 00:33:10,280 Speaker 1: Oh that's that's a blind test right there. 567 00:33:10,800 --> 00:33:13,160 Speaker 2: I thought it was my water line because I have 568 00:33:13,200 --> 00:33:15,720 Speaker 2: a box in my front yard and I went over 569 00:33:15,760 --> 00:33:17,560 Speaker 2: and looked at it. I'm like, why are these not crossing? 570 00:33:17,600 --> 00:33:19,479 Speaker 2: And I looked at it and realized it was an 571 00:33:19,480 --> 00:33:21,880 Speaker 2: AT and T box. It was just my phone line. 572 00:33:23,640 --> 00:33:33,520 Speaker 1: So I was like, well, you know, there's there there 573 00:33:33,600 --> 00:33:37,640 Speaker 1: there just as many people is is swear that it 574 00:33:37,720 --> 00:33:42,240 Speaker 1: works like these under guys that dig underground utilities and stuff. 575 00:33:42,600 --> 00:33:45,720 Speaker 1: I have a good friend over in Oklahoma. I won't 576 00:33:45,720 --> 00:33:49,600 Speaker 1: say his name. He knows who he is. He he 577 00:33:49,760 --> 00:33:55,520 Speaker 1: laughs at me for for even acknowledging water witching. And 578 00:33:55,560 --> 00:33:58,160 Speaker 1: he he digs. He digs for a living on. 579 00:33:58,120 --> 00:33:58,960 Speaker 3: A big excavator. 580 00:33:58,960 --> 00:33:59,880 Speaker 2: And he doesn't whitch. 581 00:34:00,160 --> 00:34:02,120 Speaker 3: No, he thinks he's just like Clay. 582 00:34:02,440 --> 00:34:04,080 Speaker 1: I used to think you were smart or you know, 583 00:34:04,120 --> 00:34:06,200 Speaker 1: he's like I used to think you were normal or whatever. 584 00:34:06,240 --> 00:34:06,400 Speaker 4: You know. 585 00:34:06,440 --> 00:34:08,319 Speaker 3: He's just like, I can't believe you're this. 586 00:34:08,520 --> 00:34:11,400 Speaker 2: I've hardly run into an excavator that doesn't do it. 587 00:34:11,680 --> 00:34:15,680 Speaker 1: Yeah really yeah, yeah yeah. 588 00:34:15,800 --> 00:34:17,920 Speaker 2: Most of them keep witching rods in the truck. 589 00:34:18,360 --> 00:34:23,239 Speaker 1: Well okay, but here's the thing too. Anybody that that 590 00:34:24,600 --> 00:34:28,200 Speaker 1: just is adamant and is upset about how stupid we are, 591 00:34:28,280 --> 00:34:31,080 Speaker 1: that's not done it. I have like zero exactly. It's 592 00:34:31,120 --> 00:34:35,560 Speaker 1: just like, okay, whatever, dude, you've not you've not felt 593 00:34:35,600 --> 00:34:42,799 Speaker 1: it in your hands and bear sticks move? 594 00:34:43,800 --> 00:34:46,879 Speaker 2: Have you done it? Yeah? Did you feel the sticks move? 595 00:34:47,200 --> 00:34:47,480 Speaker 1: Yeah? 596 00:34:47,600 --> 00:34:49,960 Speaker 4: And I've honestly done it, like since I was a 597 00:34:49,960 --> 00:34:53,319 Speaker 4: little kid, and I never even questioned it until now. 598 00:34:53,400 --> 00:34:55,600 Speaker 1: I just thought, yeah, you just walk over the waterline. 599 00:34:56,239 --> 00:34:57,200 Speaker 2: Sticks moved out. 600 00:34:57,560 --> 00:34:59,520 Speaker 4: Then whenever I was listening to this podcast, I was like, 601 00:34:59,520 --> 00:35:01,760 Speaker 4: wait a minute, this is I've been too crazy. 602 00:35:01,840 --> 00:35:06,239 Speaker 1: Yeah, you know who duped us? The believer? Do you 603 00:35:06,239 --> 00:35:11,759 Speaker 1: remember when we I vividly remember when we went and 604 00:35:12,120 --> 00:35:14,800 Speaker 1: witched And this is where it just starts sounding kookie 605 00:35:14,840 --> 00:35:17,560 Speaker 1: as it can be. But when we went and witch 606 00:35:17,640 --> 00:35:18,520 Speaker 1: those graves that. 607 00:35:18,520 --> 00:35:21,560 Speaker 2: If it looks cookie and smells cook cookie is probably cookie. 608 00:35:21,680 --> 00:35:21,879 Speaker 1: Yeah. 609 00:35:21,960 --> 00:35:28,440 Speaker 7: Yeah, you know, Uh, you got an earth and it's 610 00:35:28,480 --> 00:35:31,320 Speaker 7: made up different ways, and you put something in the ground, 611 00:35:31,360 --> 00:35:33,200 Speaker 7: an old car, a grave. 612 00:35:33,880 --> 00:35:34,640 Speaker 2: Yeah, and all. 613 00:35:34,520 --> 00:35:37,759 Speaker 5: These forces that that I've read about that you came 614 00:35:37,840 --> 00:35:43,040 Speaker 5: up with here, gravity and wisdom and magnitude, all we're 615 00:35:43,160 --> 00:35:46,800 Speaker 5: conductor of that. And you know, you might have a 616 00:35:46,880 --> 00:35:49,279 Speaker 5: cookbook in your hand and for some reason, that's a 617 00:35:49,320 --> 00:35:53,560 Speaker 5: great conductor. It just happens that that limb really is 618 00:35:53,600 --> 00:35:55,840 Speaker 5: a great conductor. They say it needs to be green 619 00:35:55,920 --> 00:35:59,200 Speaker 5: or helps to be green, certain type of tree. You 620 00:35:59,239 --> 00:36:00,320 Speaker 5: take a metal odd. 621 00:36:00,360 --> 00:36:02,680 Speaker 2: I mean, we need to do better for your barefoot. 622 00:36:02,960 --> 00:36:07,760 Speaker 5: But uh, you find water because there's no old car bodies, 623 00:36:07,800 --> 00:36:09,400 Speaker 5: there's no graves in the area. 624 00:36:09,880 --> 00:36:10,080 Speaker 7: You know. 625 00:36:10,200 --> 00:36:12,520 Speaker 1: You find water because it's everywhere. 626 00:36:13,040 --> 00:36:15,439 Speaker 5: But if you if you were in a cemetery trying 627 00:36:15,480 --> 00:36:18,040 Speaker 5: to find water, you wouldn't have much luck. 628 00:36:18,080 --> 00:36:19,360 Speaker 1: You're gonna find graves. 629 00:36:20,040 --> 00:36:21,400 Speaker 3: Hey, your cars beeping? 630 00:36:21,719 --> 00:36:23,120 Speaker 5: I hit a button, didn't. 631 00:36:22,840 --> 00:36:26,920 Speaker 1: I Made'll be there in a minute. 632 00:36:27,160 --> 00:36:28,680 Speaker 2: He just doused for his bronco. 633 00:36:29,719 --> 00:36:32,759 Speaker 1: No, you know, there's just so many variables. It's hard 634 00:36:32,800 --> 00:36:36,800 Speaker 1: to it's hard to uh, let you get it. Yeah, 635 00:36:37,440 --> 00:36:42,799 Speaker 1: now that is witchcraft. Yeah, be able through their able 636 00:36:42,800 --> 00:36:43,480 Speaker 1: to start your car. 637 00:36:43,640 --> 00:36:48,120 Speaker 2: Yep, witchcraft is all a matter of time? 638 00:36:49,000 --> 00:36:50,360 Speaker 1: What do you mean of age? 639 00:36:51,200 --> 00:36:53,840 Speaker 2: That would have been witchcraft one hundred years ago? Yeah, 640 00:36:53,880 --> 00:36:55,719 Speaker 2: and now it's normal. The fact that we can pick 641 00:36:55,800 --> 00:36:57,719 Speaker 2: up a cell phone and I can call all the 642 00:36:57,760 --> 00:36:59,680 Speaker 2: way across the world, that's witchcraft. 643 00:37:00,560 --> 00:37:03,960 Speaker 6: I disagree with you, Josh one hundred years ago, Okay, 644 00:37:04,080 --> 00:37:06,719 Speaker 6: but I don't believe that witchcraft is all a matter 645 00:37:06,800 --> 00:37:07,200 Speaker 6: of time. 646 00:37:09,160 --> 00:37:12,520 Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah. What she said is that there is such 647 00:37:12,520 --> 00:37:15,640 Speaker 1: a I would I would say that there there is. 648 00:37:15,800 --> 00:37:20,359 Speaker 2: I'm using the term loosely like perception about perception of 649 00:37:20,400 --> 00:37:22,239 Speaker 2: what is supernatural and what. 650 00:37:22,239 --> 00:37:24,600 Speaker 1: Is This is a good place for me to say 651 00:37:24,680 --> 00:37:28,200 Speaker 1: that my whole life, I've been quite uncomfortable with the 652 00:37:28,320 --> 00:37:33,120 Speaker 1: naming of witching for water, Like I don't, I don't 653 00:37:33,160 --> 00:37:35,400 Speaker 1: play around with and I don't think anybody in this 654 00:37:35,480 --> 00:37:39,040 Speaker 1: room does, Like we don't.

My 659 00:37:53,640 --> 00:37:56,200 Speaker 1: interest in this is that I believe that this is 660 00:37:56,239 --> 00:38:01,080 Speaker 1: not that, and I believe that most people don't. 661 00:38:01,400 --> 00:38:03,560 Speaker 2: Going back to the source, Gary, when your uncle did that, 662 00:38:03,760 --> 00:38:05,720 Speaker 2: did he call it witching? Did he call it doubtsing? 663 00:38:06,400 --> 00:38:06,760 Speaker 5: Witchy? 664 00:38:06,880 --> 00:38:07,520 Speaker 2: Nothing? 665 00:38:07,800 --> 00:38:08,520 Speaker 3: I think witching. 666 00:38:08,640 --> 00:38:14,840 Speaker 1: Yeah. I threw in the little tidbit that doctor Knefect 667 00:38:14,960 --> 00:38:19,560 Speaker 1: told me about the it's one of his thesis students 668 00:38:20,239 --> 00:38:23,680 Speaker 1: that is doing a project right now. And I actually 669 00:38:23,719 --> 00:38:26,279 Speaker 1: tried to reach out to the kid, and I'm not 670 00:38:26,280 --> 00:38:30,440 Speaker 1: sure what happened, but they can, as I understood it, 671 00:38:30,480 --> 00:38:33,840 Speaker 1: they can detect a grave with It's kind of funny. 672 00:38:34,120 --> 00:38:42,439 Speaker 1: A gravometer a gravity. That's that's what I need. Ave found. 673 00:38:42,480 --> 00:38:43,799 Speaker 2: I got a little device. 674 00:38:43,520 --> 00:38:48,200 Speaker 1: Here, witching sticks. No, I'm pretty sure that's what they 675 00:38:48,239 --> 00:38:55,200 Speaker 1: called a gravometer that measures gravity. And and he they 676 00:38:55,320 --> 00:39:00,319 Speaker 1: said that you can find a grave because the gravity 677 00:39:00,440 --> 00:39:04,320 Speaker 1: is slightly different where there's a hollow space under the ground, 678 00:39:04,360 --> 00:39:09,319 Speaker 1: because gravity is based upon mass, so gravity and so 679 00:39:09,480 --> 00:39:11,680 Speaker 1: like if there's a hollow space, but he said, it 680 00:39:11,719 --> 00:39:15,759 Speaker 1: would be such an imperceptible amount of gravity that it 681 00:39:15,800 --> 00:39:21,920 Speaker 1: would be almost impossible for your sticks to move that much. So, 682 00:39:22,040 --> 00:39:26,400 Speaker 1: you know, so in his understanding of physics, he's like, no, 683 00:39:26,640 --> 00:39:30,479 Speaker 1: it's not gravity, but when you walk over a grave 684 00:39:30,520 --> 00:39:34,840 Speaker 1: there is actually less gravity. He also told me something random, 685 00:39:35,280 --> 00:39:40,160 Speaker 1: but there's a place in Arkansas that the gravity is 686 00:39:40,520 --> 00:39:46,880 Speaker 1: like notably different than everywhere else less. There's like a 687 00:39:46,960 --> 00:39:49,640 Speaker 1: like a like a I don't I don't even want 688 00:39:49,680 --> 00:39:51,719 Speaker 1: to say how far My impression was. It was like 689 00:39:51,760 --> 00:39:55,040 Speaker 1: a twenty mile stretch, very narrow, like a like a 690 00:39:55,080 --> 00:40:00,960 Speaker 1: crack almost where gravity is like quite a bit different. 691 00:40:01,680 --> 00:40:02,600 Speaker 6: Is it around the fault? 692 00:40:03,800 --> 00:40:06,480 Speaker 1: No, I don't think so. I don't think so, but 693 00:40:06,520 --> 00:40:08,680 Speaker 1: it was. It was somewhere in the washtalls down here, 694 00:40:09,160 --> 00:40:11,680 Speaker 1: and uh just just interesting, you know, just like there's 695 00:40:11,719 --> 00:40:15,520 Speaker 1: some weird stuff going on out there that's that's hard 696 00:40:15,520 --> 00:40:17,400 Speaker 1: to explain. Yeah, and interesting. 697 00:40:18,160 --> 00:40:19,960 Speaker 4: This did bring up a lot of questions for me 698 00:40:20,040 --> 00:40:23,200 Speaker 4: about like how water is actually like how it works, 699 00:40:23,239 --> 00:40:24,960 Speaker 4: because I've always been under the depression that like a 700 00:40:25,000 --> 00:40:28,600 Speaker 4: mountain has an aquafer in it or like they're you know, 701 00:40:28,640 --> 00:40:32,200 Speaker 4: like there's kind of like an aquifer all like anywhere 702 00:40:32,200 --> 00:40:34,560 Speaker 4: you go, there's an aquifer here, because like you think 703 00:40:34,560 --> 00:40:36,720 Speaker 4: about like springs you know, coming out of a mountain, 704 00:40:36,840 --> 00:40:39,279 Speaker 4: like right, you just think that like there's you know 705 00:40:39,360 --> 00:40:42,560 Speaker 4: a big aquafer behind it. But if there's like you know, 706 00:40:42,600 --> 00:40:45,440 Speaker 4: like these little pockets where there's water that. 707 00:40:45,560 --> 00:40:46,080 Speaker 1: I don't know it. 708 00:40:46,280 --> 00:40:50,200 Speaker 4: It kind of made me like question what I believed 709 00:40:50,239 --> 00:40:52,920 Speaker 4: about how water was stored in the ground. And then 710 00:40:52,960 --> 00:40:55,520 Speaker 4: another interesting thing was, like you know you think about 711 00:40:55,560 --> 00:40:58,640 Speaker 4: like whenever you come across like a like a well, 712 00:40:58,880 --> 00:41:00,640 Speaker 4: you know out in the woods. You know, whenever you 713 00:41:00,680 --> 00:41:04,120 Speaker 4: find those like fifteen foot deep like homesteaders, well, like 714 00:41:04,160 --> 00:41:05,400 Speaker 4: how they always have water. 715 00:41:05,239 --> 00:41:05,800 Speaker 1: In the bottom. 716 00:41:06,000 --> 00:41:08,440 Speaker 4: Yeah, but like we have to drill like, you know, 717 00:41:08,600 --> 00:41:11,520 Speaker 4: a couple hundred feet now to hit water, like you know, 718 00:41:11,560 --> 00:41:13,440 Speaker 4: to find a well, and that's like. 719 00:41:13,360 --> 00:41:15,400 Speaker 1: A twelve foot well, but it has water in the 720 00:41:15,400 --> 00:41:18,960 Speaker 1: bottom of it somehow, Right. So I'm just really confused 721 00:41:19,000 --> 00:41:22,359 Speaker 1: about water works. Well, the answer would have to be 722 00:41:23,120 --> 00:41:26,800 Speaker 1: spoken to by geologists. I don't I don't really understand 723 00:41:26,880 --> 00:41:32,200 Speaker 1: underground water, but I know that imagine imagine here in 724 00:41:32,239 --> 00:41:36,160 Speaker 1: the Ozarks, there's these like big flat limestone benches and stuff. 725 00:41:37,200 --> 00:41:41,000 Speaker 1: Imagine a mountain and there's like layers of limestone, So 726 00:41:41,160 --> 00:41:45,799 Speaker 1: rainwater seeps into the ground and then kind of hovers 727 00:41:46,920 --> 00:41:49,840 Speaker 1: over the top. They can't go through the limestone, so 728 00:41:49,880 --> 00:41:52,280 Speaker 1: it just kind of like sits in the soil profile 729 00:41:52,680 --> 00:41:56,960 Speaker 1: above the limestone, and it's probably gradually moving one direction 730 00:41:57,120 --> 00:41:59,040 Speaker 1: or the other. And you drill a well down there 731 00:41:59,080 --> 00:42:01,880 Speaker 1: and all of a sudden create a cavity. And then 732 00:42:02,640 --> 00:42:06,680 Speaker 1: water is attracted to a cavity, it's attracted to a 733 00:42:06,760 --> 00:42:09,720 Speaker 1: space that gravity's pulling it down in. So the shaft 734 00:42:09,760 --> 00:42:14,480 Speaker 1: of your well, so you would drill through imagine imagine 735 00:42:14,480 --> 00:42:18,479 Speaker 1: a slab of limestone and there's water standing on top 736 00:42:18,520 --> 00:42:21,080 Speaker 1: of it in the soil profile, and then you drill 737 00:42:21,120 --> 00:42:25,200 Speaker 1: one hundred foot well through that. The water goes down 738 00:42:25,200 --> 00:42:30,439 Speaker 1: into the well, goes and fills up. And basically every 739 00:42:30,440 --> 00:42:32,960 Speaker 1: time you put want water out of that well, there's 740 00:42:33,000 --> 00:42:36,480 Speaker 1: well there because it's always sucking water from that kind 741 00:42:36,520 --> 00:42:41,279 Speaker 1: of vein of water. It's you know, that's just anecdotal 742 00:42:41,320 --> 00:42:44,800 Speaker 1: knowledge of how it works now. Aquifers that are literally 743 00:42:44,880 --> 00:42:51,360 Speaker 1: like jicks lakes of water underneath the surface. But the 744 00:42:51,440 --> 00:42:55,279 Speaker 1: hand dug wells, though, as I understand that, you you know, 745 00:42:55,360 --> 00:42:58,759 Speaker 1: you've obviously got to hit water within the depth that 746 00:42:58,800 --> 00:42:59,280 Speaker 1: you dig. 747 00:42:59,480 --> 00:43:02,799 Speaker 3: So most the hand dug wells were dug on springs. 748 00:43:03,680 --> 00:43:06,880 Speaker 1: Like you wouldn't just go out and just well, you 749 00:43:06,880 --> 00:43:09,960 Speaker 1: would have, you'd probably have some knowledge of you know, 750 00:43:10,040 --> 00:43:12,160 Speaker 1: that guy over there dug and he hit water at 751 00:43:12,200 --> 00:43:14,480 Speaker 1: fifteen feet, So if we dig a fifteen foot well here, 752 00:43:14,520 --> 00:43:18,600 Speaker 1: it will probably hit water. But they also maybe got 753 00:43:18,640 --> 00:43:21,560 Speaker 1: in places where there was a seep or something. And 754 00:43:21,600 --> 00:43:23,960 Speaker 1: then if you dig a four foot by four foot 755 00:43:24,280 --> 00:43:27,279 Speaker 1: fifteen foot shaft, it's just going to fill up with 756 00:43:27,400 --> 00:43:30,680 Speaker 1: water over time. It's just gonna be like a storage tank. 757 00:43:31,120 --> 00:43:34,840 Speaker 1: Does that makes sense a cistern? Yeah. We dug a 758 00:43:34,880 --> 00:43:37,400 Speaker 1: well here on our property when we first moved here 759 00:43:37,400 --> 00:43:40,080 Speaker 1: because we didn't have city water. We went down three 760 00:43:40,160 --> 00:43:43,040 Speaker 1: hundred feet and only got like six gallons a minute, 761 00:43:43,080 --> 00:43:48,560 Speaker 1: but only have about like a seventy gallon reservoir because 762 00:43:48,600 --> 00:43:52,319 Speaker 1: we didn't hit water for a long time. Wells, this 763 00:43:52,400 --> 00:43:53,719 Speaker 1: is boring. Did you wait for that? 764 00:43:53,760 --> 00:43:55,640 Speaker 3: Well? No, you just. 765 00:43:55,719 --> 00:43:56,799 Speaker 2: That's the problem. 766 00:43:57,280 --> 00:44:00,279 Speaker 1: There was the problem. Yeah, yeah, yeah I did. I 767 00:44:00,320 --> 00:44:03,880 Speaker 1: didn't witch it. I didn't get good water, but we 768 00:44:03,960 --> 00:44:05,400 Speaker 1: lived off that for years. 769 00:44:05,680 --> 00:44:08,000 Speaker 6: Yeah, it wasn't terrible. I mean, it was a family off. 770 00:44:07,920 --> 00:44:09,840 Speaker 1: To our house and we'd have to be like, you 771 00:44:09,920 --> 00:44:11,839 Speaker 1: want a glass of water, you should bring your own water. 772 00:44:12,080 --> 00:44:14,120 Speaker 6: No, it was not that bad. If we were a 773 00:44:14,120 --> 00:44:16,600 Speaker 6: family of six that lived off it for years. It 774 00:44:16,640 --> 00:44:19,640 Speaker 6: did seem like in August when we would have huge 775 00:44:19,719 --> 00:44:22,480 Speaker 6: gatherings we would run out of water. We would, but 776 00:44:22,520 --> 00:44:24,760 Speaker 6: we would have you know, probably fifty two one hundred 777 00:44:24,760 --> 00:44:28,400 Speaker 6: people here, and that you'd have to put intense pressure 778 00:44:28,440 --> 00:44:32,520 Speaker 6: on it. It was decent for everyday life. It was really, 779 00:44:32,560 --> 00:44:37,640 Speaker 6: it was very rare. I googled just now to see 780 00:44:38,239 --> 00:44:43,000 Speaker 6: if people in Arizona water witch because what bears questions 781 00:44:43,000 --> 00:44:46,160 Speaker 6: you were talking about in the Delta. They don't really 782 00:44:46,400 --> 00:44:48,160 Speaker 6: because you know, you just stick something in and you 783 00:44:48,160 --> 00:44:51,799 Speaker 6: get water and then the mountains. But I was just 784 00:44:51,840 --> 00:44:55,480 Speaker 6: in Arizona. It's super arid, dry flat in most spots. 785 00:44:56,000 --> 00:45:00,120 Speaker 6: And we got a Tucson woman waterwitching in the news 786 00:45:00,480 --> 00:45:05,120 Speaker 6: in Arizona. Yeah, and several so, but rural in rural areas, 787 00:45:05,440 --> 00:45:06,080 Speaker 6: not cities. 788 00:45:06,760 --> 00:45:13,000 Speaker 1: Yeah, interesting any water you know, my father in law, 789 00:45:13,320 --> 00:45:18,080 Speaker 1: Steve talked about, uh, water witcher's in Florida. Oh really yeah, 790 00:45:18,200 --> 00:45:20,560 Speaker 1: and and water's everywhere down there. But he said he 791 00:45:20,640 --> 00:45:23,240 Speaker 1: remembered them like trying to just find the best spot 792 00:45:24,360 --> 00:45:26,000 Speaker 1: using using sticks, you. 793 00:45:25,920 --> 00:45:27,959 Speaker 2: Know, you go ten feet instead of twelve feet. 794 00:45:28,160 --> 00:45:34,320 Speaker 6: Yeah, we got a water witcher in Kansas, people asking 795 00:45:34,400 --> 00:45:39,600 Speaker 6: on Facebook for an experienced water witcher in Prescott, Arizona. M. Sorry, 796 00:45:39,640 --> 00:45:46,120 Speaker 6: I'm kind of going down the rabbit trail here. I'm curious. Yeah, Oregon. 797 00:45:46,320 --> 00:45:51,759 Speaker 6: So sorry, I'll stop, but they're all there, all yeah, yeah, yeah. 798 00:45:52,000 --> 00:45:53,800 Speaker 2: How do you feel about how do you feel about 799 00:45:54,200 --> 00:45:56,279 Speaker 2: whether a witcher should take money or not? You think 800 00:45:56,360 --> 00:45:59,279 Speaker 2: that affects their efficacy. 801 00:46:00,400 --> 00:46:01,520 Speaker 6: I think they should take money. 802 00:46:01,719 --> 00:46:02,879 Speaker 2: You think they should take come out. 803 00:46:03,120 --> 00:46:06,520 Speaker 6: I think anytime you spend, you spend time, pay the 804 00:46:06,560 --> 00:46:08,560 Speaker 6: person what they were. I think they're asking them to come. 805 00:46:08,719 --> 00:46:11,600 Speaker 2: I think you should give them a token of gratitude, 806 00:46:11,719 --> 00:46:16,120 Speaker 2: not money, like a blaf of bread or some farm. 807 00:46:16,160 --> 00:46:19,279 Speaker 6: You're only you only think bartering is acceptable. 808 00:46:19,320 --> 00:46:23,640 Speaker 1: Absolutely, you can Barrian goods, okay, like bread that you made. 809 00:46:23,920 --> 00:46:28,560 Speaker 6: Absolutely, Or you can barter with a water you cannot, okay, 810 00:46:28,640 --> 00:46:29,040 Speaker 6: got it. 811 00:46:29,200 --> 00:46:31,200 Speaker 1: I loved it with Roger because I told you, when 812 00:46:31,239 --> 00:46:33,600 Speaker 1: I called Roger, I knew that he would know the rules. 813 00:46:33,960 --> 00:46:35,359 Speaker 3: I just knew he would know the rules. 814 00:46:35,400 --> 00:46:38,520 Speaker 1: And he was like, hey, if some waters try to 815 00:46:38,600 --> 00:46:41,520 Speaker 1: charge you money, you need to find somebody else. Its 816 00:46:41,640 --> 00:46:45,360 Speaker 1: like they don't know any better than anybody else, you know. 817 00:46:45,480 --> 00:46:47,880 Speaker 5: I kind of feel like anybody can water which if 818 00:46:47,840 --> 00:46:50,120 Speaker 5: they'll try it, you know, I mean it could be 819 00:46:50,200 --> 00:46:52,879 Speaker 5: certain bodies, you know, if what I'm saying would be true, 820 00:46:52,920 --> 00:46:55,799 Speaker 5: that we're a conductor of all that stuff, right. You know, 821 00:46:55,800 --> 00:46:58,560 Speaker 5: if you're off the ground, suspended in midair, I don't 822 00:46:58,600 --> 00:47:00,759 Speaker 5: know what would happen. But if you're neck to the. 823 00:47:00,719 --> 00:47:04,240 Speaker 6: Earth a good test. I have never water witched. 824 00:47:04,719 --> 00:47:06,120 Speaker 1: I think anybody could do it. 825 00:47:06,760 --> 00:47:09,680 Speaker 5: I don't know. It could be well, your chemical makeup 826 00:47:09,880 --> 00:47:13,400 Speaker 5: might make it where it's less effective or more, but 827 00:47:13,920 --> 00:47:15,560 Speaker 5: anybody ough'll be able to do it. 828 00:47:15,680 --> 00:47:18,680 Speaker 1: And that brings up an interesting question about what we're 829 00:47:18,719 --> 00:47:23,760 Speaker 1: actually what we're actually talking about. If you're talking about 830 00:47:23,880 --> 00:47:29,680 Speaker 1: finding groundwater, I think that there it's possible that guys 831 00:47:30,640 --> 00:47:32,879 Speaker 1: that have done it. Let's say there's somebody. I don't 832 00:47:32,880 --> 00:47:35,800 Speaker 1: know anybody that's witched a thousand wells. 833 00:47:35,680 --> 00:47:35,839 Speaker 6: But. 834 00:47:37,440 --> 00:47:41,759 Speaker 1: You might be so tuned into where water is, how 835 00:47:41,800 --> 00:47:45,400 Speaker 1: it flows, the sticks, all these data points that you 836 00:47:45,480 --> 00:47:49,120 Speaker 1: are just a master. I mean, now, can anybody make 837 00:47:49,160 --> 00:47:52,919 Speaker 1: the sticks move with with close hagers, I would say 838 00:47:53,120 --> 00:47:57,520 Speaker 1: almost yes, like they it just almost works on everybody, 839 00:47:59,280 --> 00:48:01,359 Speaker 1: Go get a green stick and tell somebody to go 840 00:48:01,440 --> 00:48:02,760 Speaker 1: find underground water. 841 00:48:04,520 --> 00:48:05,279 Speaker 5: They can find it. 842 00:48:05,520 --> 00:48:08,400 Speaker 1: Well I'm saying, I'm saying, no, they can't. I'm saying 843 00:48:09,360 --> 00:48:13,719 Speaker 1: the guy that's done it his whole life, I'm right, 844 00:48:14,160 --> 00:48:18,919 Speaker 1: you're wrong. Okay, No, go ah, yeah, well, just who 845 00:48:18,960 --> 00:48:22,359 Speaker 1: knows what that guy is tapped into that he I'm 846 00:48:22,400 --> 00:48:25,040 Speaker 1: not even saying spiritually, but you know, or something like that, 847 00:48:25,080 --> 00:48:30,480 Speaker 1: but just he's he's he's done it, he knows. And yeah, 848 00:48:30,760 --> 00:48:34,520 Speaker 1: the academic research was done in the nineties that I 849 00:48:34,560 --> 00:48:38,359 Speaker 1: read about, where did these blind tests right with people. 850 00:48:38,680 --> 00:48:42,080 Speaker 6: In the meta analysis? Didn't you read one of those 851 00:48:43,280 --> 00:48:45,360 Speaker 6: go ahead? I mean, didn't you where they kind of 852 00:48:45,360 --> 00:48:48,200 Speaker 6: collected all the different studies that had ever been done. 853 00:48:48,520 --> 00:48:53,120 Speaker 1: Well, I don't know about that, okay, but my question 854 00:48:53,320 --> 00:48:56,800 Speaker 1: is if I went and got thirty water witchers to 855 00:48:57,760 --> 00:49:00,680 Speaker 1: do a test on, I don't know. Are they as 856 00:49:00,760 --> 00:49:04,000 Speaker 1: good as Colin Deaton He's done it a thousand times 857 00:49:04,000 --> 00:49:06,960 Speaker 1: and does it every day. Or did they get guys 858 00:49:07,040 --> 00:49:09,080 Speaker 1: like me that have just kind of dabbled with it. 859 00:49:09,920 --> 00:49:15,200 Speaker 1: I mean, yeah, it's just so hard to quantify. 860 00:49:16,600 --> 00:49:19,640 Speaker 5: I had a guy explained, you know, we're t I 861 00:49:19,680 --> 00:49:22,160 Speaker 5: told him's coming up here to water wishing deal and 862 00:49:22,239 --> 00:49:25,680 Speaker 5: he told me this elaborate story. He's a great storyteller, 863 00:49:25,920 --> 00:49:30,040 Speaker 5: a good friend of mine. And he said that they 864 00:49:30,040 --> 00:49:33,359 Speaker 5: were looking for a water line and they witched it. 865 00:49:33,480 --> 00:49:35,200 Speaker 1: But you know, you had to witch this way and 866 00:49:35,280 --> 00:49:35,719 Speaker 1: that way. 867 00:49:35,760 --> 00:49:39,880 Speaker 5: You know how to turn to get angles where everybody 868 00:49:39,920 --> 00:49:42,640 Speaker 5: can't do that right right, And he said, the guy 869 00:49:42,760 --> 00:49:47,040 Speaker 5: finally said, look, it's running right through here exactly. And 870 00:49:47,080 --> 00:49:49,879 Speaker 5: he said, we took a back hole and dug down 871 00:49:50,280 --> 00:49:53,160 Speaker 5: within six inches of where he said it was on 872 00:49:53,200 --> 00:49:57,200 Speaker 5: each side. Then we took a hand deal and dug 873 00:49:57,280 --> 00:49:59,759 Speaker 5: down into it and it was exactly where he said. 874 00:49:59,760 --> 00:50:03,160 Speaker 5: But he he had to make several measurements where that's 875 00:50:03,160 --> 00:50:04,960 Speaker 5: where the expertise. 876 00:50:04,320 --> 00:50:05,040 Speaker 1: Might come in. 877 00:50:06,360 --> 00:50:08,799 Speaker 5: But I don't think it's mental. I think it's a 878 00:50:08,800 --> 00:50:10,799 Speaker 5: physical thing. But who am I? 879 00:50:11,920 --> 00:50:16,440 Speaker 1: Well, Colin Deaton. I appreciated how matter of fact he was. 880 00:50:16,560 --> 00:50:19,160 Speaker 1: He was like, yeah, I'm using all the clues I have. 881 00:50:19,600 --> 00:50:21,920 Speaker 1: There's a water tap there exactly. He goes into the 882 00:50:21,960 --> 00:50:24,560 Speaker 1: house right there and he said it may take me 883 00:50:24,600 --> 00:50:27,040 Speaker 1: a while, but he said, you have to walk perpendicular 884 00:50:27,120 --> 00:50:29,839 Speaker 1: over the line. You might think you just walk down 885 00:50:29,880 --> 00:50:33,120 Speaker 1: the line, but when they cross, if you're on top 886 00:50:33,160 --> 00:50:36,840 Speaker 1: of it, they would just stay cross exactly what happens 887 00:50:37,840 --> 00:50:42,520 Speaker 1: and call me crazy. You know, you walk perpendicular to it, crosses, 888 00:50:42,560 --> 00:50:45,080 Speaker 1: then it opens back up, and so you turn around 889 00:50:45,120 --> 00:50:48,160 Speaker 1: and you go down another ten feet, walk back across 890 00:50:48,200 --> 00:50:51,200 Speaker 1: it and get another data point and get you get 891 00:50:51,200 --> 00:50:55,880 Speaker 1: these data points for where the line is. Yeah, yeah, yeah, 892 00:50:56,080 --> 00:50:59,040 Speaker 1: that takes skill. That would take skill to really absolutely 893 00:50:59,160 --> 00:51:02,520 Speaker 1: dial in, especially if you had no data points, if 894 00:51:02,520 --> 00:51:04,600 Speaker 1: you didn't know where it was. 895 00:51:04,840 --> 00:51:16,000 Speaker 8: You know, now, I think it's ridiculous that we can 896 00:51:16,040 --> 00:51:17,920 Speaker 8: go to the moon, but we can't. 897 00:51:17,640 --> 00:51:19,880 Speaker 2: Tell you how this works. 898 00:51:20,160 --> 00:51:24,200 Speaker 5: I mean, to me, it works, and not necessarily, like 899 00:51:24,239 --> 00:51:27,920 Speaker 5: I've said, not necessarily it's gonna find anything. It just 900 00:51:28,040 --> 00:51:31,399 Speaker 5: happens that most part of the Earth there's nothing there. 901 00:51:31,440 --> 00:51:35,360 Speaker 5: That's just this normal earth. You know, it's always something 902 00:51:35,520 --> 00:51:38,480 Speaker 5: you need. And so really the only prevalent thing is 903 00:51:38,560 --> 00:51:42,759 Speaker 5: going to be water. So you're gonna find water, and 904 00:51:42,840 --> 00:51:45,560 Speaker 5: a lot of these four things that are mentioned in 905 00:51:45,560 --> 00:51:50,799 Speaker 5: in your little rite up of forces of nature. Some 906 00:51:50,960 --> 00:51:54,200 Speaker 5: are strong, some are weak, and you know you're going 907 00:51:54,280 --> 00:51:58,440 Speaker 5: to get different signals. But hey, it's a it's a 908 00:51:58,480 --> 00:51:59,080 Speaker 5: real deal. 909 00:52:00,080 --> 00:52:02,319 Speaker 1: Mm hmm, absolutely, mm hmm. 910 00:52:04,480 --> 00:52:07,680 Speaker 6: Yeah, yeah, I think it makes total sense that maybe 911 00:52:07,680 --> 00:52:11,279 Speaker 6: everyone could get a little bit of movement, and there's 912 00:52:11,280 --> 00:52:14,600 Speaker 6: something scientific about that. But then people who really hone 913 00:52:14,680 --> 00:52:18,920 Speaker 6: in and devote their life to understanding stuff would figure 914 00:52:18,960 --> 00:52:22,120 Speaker 6: out how to do it better, more precise get different 915 00:52:22,120 --> 00:52:26,680 Speaker 6: types of water just by sheer experience that you couldn't quantify, 916 00:52:26,680 --> 00:52:29,840 Speaker 6: that you couldn't say. I think about like, there's this 917 00:52:29,880 --> 00:52:31,640 Speaker 6: type of cookie that we make that we make on 918 00:52:31,680 --> 00:52:34,359 Speaker 6: the oven, and when my mom taught me to make it, 919 00:52:34,480 --> 00:52:36,120 Speaker 6: she said, you have to feel it, and she would 920 00:52:36,120 --> 00:52:38,200 Speaker 6: make me come over and like when you'd stir it, 921 00:52:38,480 --> 00:52:41,000 Speaker 6: you would feel what And if you don't do it 922 00:52:41,120 --> 00:52:43,520 Speaker 6: just right, it's going to come out too soft or 923 00:52:43,520 --> 00:52:46,839 Speaker 6: too dry, and you just have to feel it. And 924 00:52:47,200 --> 00:52:49,960 Speaker 6: I've tried different ovens, and every oven you get to 925 00:52:50,000 --> 00:52:51,719 Speaker 6: that point at a different time, because you know, you 926 00:52:52,000 --> 00:52:54,680 Speaker 6: want a recipe that just says that three minutes is 927 00:52:54,680 --> 00:52:56,080 Speaker 6: going to do this for a five minutes, But you 928 00:52:56,080 --> 00:52:58,759 Speaker 6: can't because every oven is different. You turn the heat 929 00:52:58,800 --> 00:53:01,800 Speaker 6: on different in different type of sugar, you're using different 930 00:53:01,800 --> 00:53:03,799 Speaker 6: type of conductors. 931 00:53:03,840 --> 00:53:07,120 Speaker 3: You know, in audio motor effect, well, no difference. 932 00:53:06,960 --> 00:53:09,000 Speaker 6: No, there is a difference. There's a huge difference because 933 00:53:09,040 --> 00:53:11,600 Speaker 6: sometimes it takes sometimes it takes five minutes to get 934 00:53:11,600 --> 00:53:14,200 Speaker 6: to that spot and sometimes it takes three minutes. And 935 00:53:15,160 --> 00:53:16,840 Speaker 6: you just have to know how it feels. And there 936 00:53:16,880 --> 00:53:18,839 Speaker 6: are people who know what it feels like and they 937 00:53:18,880 --> 00:53:21,040 Speaker 6: know how to find how to test it, and how 938 00:53:21,040 --> 00:53:24,640 Speaker 6: to go a little further. But probably everybody could do it. 939 00:53:25,160 --> 00:53:27,440 Speaker 2: Check all recipes for the audio motor. 940 00:53:27,239 --> 00:53:36,759 Speaker 1: Cookie mm hmm. Yeah. Well it's really interesting to me, 941 00:53:36,960 --> 00:53:41,359 Speaker 1: and it's interesting to see how people how people handle it. 942 00:53:42,000 --> 00:53:44,200 Speaker 1: And and I thought it was, Oh, it was so 943 00:53:44,320 --> 00:53:48,799 Speaker 1: funny when I'm with doctor ken Effect like in the 944 00:53:48,840 --> 00:53:53,959 Speaker 1: middle of an interview and literally knock on the door 945 00:53:54,880 --> 00:53:57,160 Speaker 1: and he's like, oh, I'm so sorry, Clay, I forgot 946 00:53:57,200 --> 00:53:59,719 Speaker 1: they were coming.

He's 950 00:54:12,800 --> 00:54:17,839 Speaker 1: here talking about water witching, and she goes she just 951 00:54:17,920 --> 00:54:20,919 Speaker 1: I mean within seconds, was just like, yeah, I hired 952 00:54:20,920 --> 00:54:24,880 Speaker 1: a water witcher six months ago, and I just was like, 953 00:54:25,000 --> 00:54:27,760 Speaker 1: I wish I could have recorded the actual moment when 954 00:54:27,840 --> 00:54:31,160 Speaker 1: she when she told me that, I just said, you're 955 00:54:31,280 --> 00:54:33,600 Speaker 1: kidding and she's like, oh no, and she was real 956 00:54:33,719 --> 00:54:37,440 Speaker 1: nice and the good she was she she was very 957 00:54:37,480 --> 00:54:39,960 Speaker 1: good at describing and I just said, yeah, she was good. 958 00:54:40,000 --> 00:54:42,000 Speaker 1: Will you sit down with me? And she was like sure. 959 00:54:42,440 --> 00:54:46,600 Speaker 1: They were like two minutes maybe three after meeting her. 960 00:54:46,680 --> 00:54:49,640 Speaker 1: She was sitting in the chair telling me about the 961 00:54:49,680 --> 00:54:51,640 Speaker 1: guys that she paid one hundred and fifty dollars to 962 00:54:51,680 --> 00:54:54,799 Speaker 1: which water for or that she paid them for it, 963 00:54:55,280 --> 00:55:02,919 Speaker 1: and she she she Mark findall, Roger Quinton, and Clay 964 00:55:03,000 --> 00:55:07,520 Speaker 1: Newcomb all have the same idea is probably should go 965 00:55:07,560 --> 00:55:10,399 Speaker 1: ahead and do it, just if you're gonna if you're 966 00:55:10,400 --> 00:55:14,160 Speaker 1: gonna have a well and even statistically, it's not gonna 967 00:55:14,200 --> 00:55:19,040 Speaker 1: hurt you because if in fact, a water witcher cannot 968 00:55:19,200 --> 00:55:23,239 Speaker 1: find underground water any better than random chance, then it's 969 00:55:23,280 --> 00:55:24,040 Speaker 1: not gonna hurt. 970 00:55:23,920 --> 00:55:28,200 Speaker 2: You, right because how's because how's a well driller gonna 971 00:55:28,239 --> 00:55:28,600 Speaker 2: find it? 972 00:55:29,440 --> 00:55:30,120 Speaker 6: Yeah? 973 00:55:30,239 --> 00:55:32,280 Speaker 2: They don't have any better chance than the water witcher. 974 00:55:32,920 --> 00:55:36,040 Speaker 1: They I mean, okay, would they would? They would have 975 00:55:36,400 --> 00:55:39,680 Speaker 1: a lot of prior knowledge of where to drill well, 976 00:55:40,080 --> 00:55:43,440 Speaker 1: you know, they would they would have known in this 977 00:55:43,680 --> 00:55:47,560 Speaker 1: valley or at this elevation. Typically we drill here or 978 00:55:47,600 --> 00:55:49,239 Speaker 1: here or. 979 00:55:49,600 --> 00:55:55,120 Speaker 6: I guarantee you yeah know that information too. I'm certain 980 00:55:55,160 --> 00:55:58,879 Speaker 6: that water witchers would know that intel maybe because they've 981 00:55:58,920 --> 00:56:02,279 Speaker 6: done it. Yeah, so they've got they have that. That's 982 00:56:02,320 --> 00:56:02,640 Speaker 6: part of it. 983 00:56:02,840 --> 00:56:06,640 Speaker 1: See, there's all levels of water witchers, you know, like Carl, 984 00:56:07,200 --> 00:56:07,720 Speaker 1: the one. 985 00:56:07,560 --> 00:56:09,800 Speaker 6: You would pay, the one you would pay. 986 00:56:11,840 --> 00:56:16,279 Speaker 1: There should be like Carl, Carl told me. I mean, 987 00:56:17,040 --> 00:56:22,480 Speaker 1: in Carl's mind he has well, it's it's I believe him. 988 00:56:22,760 --> 00:56:24,920 Speaker 1: He's never told them to dig a well there and 989 00:56:24,960 --> 00:56:27,480 Speaker 1: then not have found water. They always find water. 990 00:56:28,040 --> 00:56:30,200 Speaker 2: I'd like to see a statistic on how many well 991 00:56:30,320 --> 00:56:32,400 Speaker 2: drillers drill well and don't find water. 992 00:56:32,640 --> 00:56:36,480 Speaker 1: Right, that's the thing, because it could be it's just 993 00:56:36,520 --> 00:56:39,160 Speaker 1: like well, anywhere you drill, if you drill deep enough, 994 00:56:39,200 --> 00:56:40,120 Speaker 1: you're going to find water. 995 00:56:40,800 --> 00:56:43,759 Speaker 2: Typical well around here's what two to three hundred feet. 996 00:56:43,880 --> 00:56:47,319 Speaker 5: I'd say so, and Bear's founded at fourteen, So I 997 00:56:47,360 --> 00:56:48,960 Speaker 5: mean I'm going to bear yeah. 998 00:56:49,480 --> 00:56:50,520 Speaker 1: Uh. One thing. 999 00:56:50,800 --> 00:56:53,680 Speaker 5: I don't know if y'all find this interesting, but I did. 1000 00:56:53,719 --> 00:56:59,680 Speaker 5: I had a customer and he was an unusual guy, 1001 00:56:59,840 --> 00:57:03,920 Speaker 5: and he did what was called dowsing tell us about 1002 00:57:03,920 --> 00:57:07,800 Speaker 5: his well. He kept his Marlboroughs in his T shirt 1003 00:57:08,640 --> 00:57:11,040 Speaker 5: sleeve right here. And then he get a six pack 1004 00:57:11,080 --> 00:57:13,520 Speaker 5: of beer tied in a T shirt tied to his belt. 1005 00:57:14,360 --> 00:57:18,360 Speaker 5: And anyway, he came in my office and he got 1006 00:57:18,400 --> 00:57:21,360 Speaker 5: to talking about this dowsing, and of course I'm intrigued 1007 00:57:21,400 --> 00:57:24,000 Speaker 5: by it. I don't necessarily believe it, but I'm just 1008 00:57:24,120 --> 00:57:26,840 Speaker 5: intrigued by these type people. And I like getting outdoors. 1009 00:57:27,080 --> 00:57:30,040 Speaker 5: And I said, if I give you a well, they 1010 00:57:30,080 --> 00:57:32,720 Speaker 5: would play a game where they would cut a big 1011 00:57:32,800 --> 00:57:36,320 Speaker 5: area of a yard up into blocks, and somebody would 1012 00:57:36,360 --> 00:57:39,680 Speaker 5: put a quarter on number forty seven block. Have the 1013 00:57:39,720 --> 00:57:41,840 Speaker 5: guy come out of the house. He'd take a string 1014 00:57:41,960 --> 00:57:44,240 Speaker 5: with a ball on the end of it and go, 1015 00:57:44,320 --> 00:57:47,200 Speaker 5: where is the quarter in this thing? Which kind of 1016 00:57:47,200 --> 00:57:50,520 Speaker 5: a ball? It didn't matter, It didn't matter. The one 1017 00:57:50,560 --> 00:57:54,240 Speaker 5: time I used it, I used my rope on my 1018 00:57:54,480 --> 00:57:58,960 Speaker 5: rain jacket trying to find it an arrow I finally got. Anyway, 1019 00:57:58,760 --> 00:58:02,560 Speaker 5: so this thing would take him to that spot, and 1020 00:58:02,600 --> 00:58:04,320 Speaker 5: I go, hey, what if I take you out in 1021 00:58:04,360 --> 00:58:09,920 Speaker 5: the woods and describe something and you think you can 1022 00:58:09,960 --> 00:58:12,320 Speaker 5: find it? He said, absolutely, no question. So I took 1023 00:58:12,400 --> 00:58:15,560 Speaker 5: him way out as far as you could go, and 1024 00:58:15,640 --> 00:58:20,280 Speaker 5: knew of a very prominent spot a long you know, 1025 00:58:20,360 --> 00:58:25,640 Speaker 5: two hours away up a mountain, and he said he 1026 00:58:25,680 --> 00:58:27,919 Speaker 5: had never been there. Of course I believe that he had. 1027 00:58:28,080 --> 00:58:30,640 Speaker 5: I mean, I just don't believe this. And so we 1028 00:58:30,720 --> 00:58:34,600 Speaker 5: get out of the truck and he said, where is 1029 00:58:34,720 --> 00:58:39,720 Speaker 5: the blank this object that I knew was there? And 1030 00:58:40,080 --> 00:58:43,240 Speaker 5: he took his little dowser out and it got the swinging, 1031 00:58:43,320 --> 00:58:46,200 Speaker 5: and we took off up the mountain and we'd go 1032 00:58:46,240 --> 00:58:48,840 Speaker 5: a little ways and he'd get us over here. When 1033 00:58:48,880 --> 00:58:50,960 Speaker 5: we finally got to the top of the mountain, it 1034 00:58:51,080 --> 00:58:53,840 Speaker 5: was just almost straight up. You had to get on 1035 00:58:53,920 --> 00:58:57,680 Speaker 5: all fours. And when we looked over the top of 1036 00:58:57,720 --> 00:59:00,280 Speaker 5: the mountain, just like this, it was flat as a pan. Okay, 1037 00:59:00,520 --> 00:59:04,920 Speaker 5: there was, I mean it was within fifty yards of 1038 00:59:05,000 --> 00:59:05,440 Speaker 5: where we. 1039 00:59:05,520 --> 00:59:06,760 Speaker 1: Came up on the mountain. 1040 00:59:06,960 --> 00:59:10,320 Speaker 5: What's the it, Well, I'd rather not say. 1041 00:59:10,600 --> 00:59:12,600 Speaker 1: Oh it's a big yeah. 1042 00:59:12,440 --> 00:59:14,280 Speaker 2: Oh it's a it's a like a location like. 1043 00:59:14,360 --> 00:59:16,880 Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, Okay, you can say it was a cemetery. 1044 00:59:16,960 --> 00:59:22,200 Speaker 5: Okay, cemetery okay, way out, no roads to it. It's 1045 00:59:22,280 --> 00:59:23,360 Speaker 5: just isolated up. 1046 00:59:23,240 --> 00:59:26,200 Speaker 3: There a long ways away. 1047 00:59:26,560 --> 00:59:28,280 Speaker 2: Dad's told I thought you meant like there was an 1048 00:59:28,320 --> 00:59:29,640 Speaker 2: object you had Well. 1049 00:59:29,680 --> 00:59:32,160 Speaker 5: You know, I just didn't want to to people who 1050 00:59:32,200 --> 00:59:32,720 Speaker 5: know the area. 1051 00:59:32,760 --> 00:59:33,080 Speaker 2: I didn't. 1052 00:59:33,320 --> 00:59:37,280 Speaker 1: You know, Yeah, it's a it's it's a cemetery. 1053 00:59:37,120 --> 00:59:37,960 Speaker 2: In the middle of the woods. 1054 00:59:38,080 --> 00:59:41,120 Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah, with that old old cemetery that no, there's 1055 00:59:41,160 --> 00:59:43,440 Speaker 1: no longer any access to. You got to walk into 1056 00:59:43,480 --> 00:59:49,120 Speaker 1: it and uh it that's told me that story. I 1057 00:59:49,160 --> 00:59:50,520 Speaker 1: remember when that happened. 1058 00:59:50,720 --> 00:59:53,600 Speaker 5: It was pretty shocking, pretty shocking. I mean we were 1059 00:59:53,640 --> 00:59:56,800 Speaker 5: smoking and drinking all the way up he was, I 1060 00:59:56,840 --> 00:59:59,360 Speaker 5: mean he was on the and. 1061 00:59:59,520 --> 01:00:01,800 Speaker 1: They're like that. You just have to either say it's 1062 01:00:01,840 --> 01:00:04,880 Speaker 1: kind of like what doctor Kidifex said, Uh, the guy's 1063 01:00:04,920 --> 01:00:09,640 Speaker 1: either a fraud or well, this has nothing to do 1064 01:00:09,680 --> 01:00:15,920 Speaker 1: with physics. This is to me something not even really related. 1065 01:00:16,000 --> 01:00:20,280 Speaker 1: It can't I just can't be real. Yeah, dowsing to me, 1066 01:00:20,960 --> 01:00:26,320 Speaker 1: if you're like using your your mind to ask questions 1067 01:00:26,360 --> 01:00:29,720 Speaker 1: to an object, that's like pretty weird. That's that's uh, 1068 01:00:29,920 --> 01:00:34,840 Speaker 1: that's how it bounds for me. But but I that's 1069 01:00:34,840 --> 01:00:37,320 Speaker 1: what people do. And that's where all this all gets 1070 01:00:37,360 --> 01:00:44,320 Speaker 1: so convoluted is because water witching, dowsing all, you know, 1071 01:00:44,440 --> 01:00:46,880 Speaker 1: using a green stick to find underground water, like, all 1072 01:00:46,960 --> 01:00:49,520 Speaker 1: this stuff kind of gets mixed into like the same 1073 01:00:50,360 --> 01:00:53,480 Speaker 1: bucket and then becomes very confusing. And then when you 1074 01:00:53,520 --> 01:00:57,439 Speaker 1: start reading about water witching and stuff. Back in the day, 1075 01:00:58,040 --> 01:00:59,760 Speaker 1: I didn't even put it on the podcast because it 1076 01:00:59,760 --> 01:01:02,440 Speaker 1: was just a little too far out of bounds. They 1077 01:01:02,480 --> 01:01:05,240 Speaker 1: would use witching sticks to like tell if somebody had 1078 01:01:05,360 --> 01:01:09,040 Speaker 1: character or not, or to tell if they lied. They 1079 01:01:09,080 --> 01:01:11,280 Speaker 1: would be like did you lie? And you'd be like, no, 1080 01:01:11,360 --> 01:01:12,840 Speaker 1: I didn't lie, and you go, well, let's get the 1081 01:01:12,880 --> 01:01:15,480 Speaker 1: witching sticks. And if they crossed the guy was a liar, 1082 01:01:15,640 --> 01:01:18,880 Speaker 1: you know, and they'd kill him. They would ask they 1083 01:01:18,880 --> 01:01:24,160 Speaker 1: would use it as hard Yeah. So there's there's just 1084 01:01:24,200 --> 01:01:29,360 Speaker 1: this rabbit hole that's really deep. And I don't believe 1085 01:01:29,360 --> 01:01:33,480 Speaker 1: that sticks can determine human character and tell you if 1086 01:01:33,480 --> 01:01:40,400 Speaker 1: someone lied or not. My only question is what makes 1087 01:01:40,440 --> 01:01:43,400 Speaker 1: the sticks move? It was the only question that I 1088 01:01:43,440 --> 01:01:46,280 Speaker 1: was seeking to answer from this what makes the sticks move? 1089 01:01:46,360 --> 01:01:50,240 Speaker 5: And the conclusion is huhm, one of those four things. 1090 01:01:50,360 --> 01:01:52,000 Speaker 1: I don't think it's mental physics. 1091 01:01:52,400 --> 01:01:54,120 Speaker 3: Yeah, Dad thinks it's physics. 1092 01:01:55,040 --> 01:01:57,360 Speaker 2: It's got to be, got to be. 1093 01:01:57,840 --> 01:02:01,120 Speaker 1: I want to I really wanted to talk to an 1094 01:02:01,120 --> 01:02:05,720 Speaker 1: expert on the audio motor technique that will go with 1095 01:02:05,760 --> 01:02:09,440 Speaker 1: me to Carl Holt's house and watch his hands and 1096 01:02:09,520 --> 01:02:14,160 Speaker 1: just explain to me the physics of Well. I just 1097 01:02:14,200 --> 01:02:16,560 Speaker 1: don't think I just don't think Carl Holt was trying 1098 01:02:16,560 --> 01:02:17,040 Speaker 1: to trick me. 1099 01:02:17,480 --> 01:02:21,520 Speaker 6: I definitely think you might have some self professed experts 1100 01:02:21,640 --> 01:02:24,040 Speaker 6: on the IDEO motor movement on your Instagram right now. 1101 01:02:24,160 --> 01:02:26,800 Speaker 6: Oh yeah, you got a couple guys who would volunteer. 1102 01:02:26,880 --> 01:02:30,240 Speaker 6: They've started, they've already started the analysis. 1103 01:02:30,480 --> 01:02:34,560 Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah, and I knew that I signed up for that, Yeah, 1104 01:02:35,200 --> 01:02:38,120 Speaker 1: signed up for it. But hey, these are the questions 1105 01:02:38,120 --> 01:02:42,840 Speaker 1: that make, uh, make life fun, and it's fun to 1106 01:02:42,960 --> 01:02:45,640 Speaker 1: just explore these things and uh. 1107 01:02:47,040 --> 01:02:51,280 Speaker 3: And and ask, you know, ask hard questions. 1108 01:02:51,320 --> 01:02:53,840 Speaker 1: I was like, bearr. I never even thought much about 1109 01:02:53,880 --> 01:02:56,440 Speaker 1: it until I became an adult and I was like, 1110 01:02:56,480 --> 01:03:00,120 Speaker 1: wait a minute, this is unusual. And then it's like, 1111 01:03:01,720 --> 01:03:03,480 Speaker 1: is this normal to know how to do this? Is 1112 01:03:04,000 --> 01:03:09,320 Speaker 1: this across the country? So interesting questions. But humans are 1113 01:03:09,960 --> 01:03:14,800 Speaker 1: inherently fallible and gullible. I will say that, in fact, 1114 01:03:15,400 --> 01:03:17,600 Speaker 1: a lot of stuff happens that's not real that we 1115 01:03:17,680 --> 01:03:18,320 Speaker 1: think is real. 1116 01:03:19,720 --> 01:03:20,280 Speaker 3: It's true. 1117 01:03:20,400 --> 01:03:24,520 Speaker 6: And I also think that humans are too skeptical. Yeah, 1118 01:03:24,920 --> 01:03:26,040 Speaker 6: I think it goes both ways. 1119 01:03:27,520 --> 01:03:32,360 Speaker 1: I said, something. The other day. I was writing something 1120 01:03:32,400 --> 01:03:37,160 Speaker 1: and I wrote it. I said that modernity has given 1121 01:03:37,240 --> 01:03:42,960 Speaker 1: us so much. Modernity just being technology and all the 1122 01:03:43,280 --> 01:03:47,920 Speaker 1: incredible things and knowledge that we have access to today 1123 01:03:47,960 --> 01:03:50,240 Speaker 1: that no humans have ever had access to. I mean, 1124 01:03:50,560 --> 01:03:55,680 Speaker 1: the human experience that we live is far beyond the 1125 01:03:55,720 --> 01:03:58,920 Speaker 1: wildest imagination of people from the Stone Age or even 1126 01:03:58,960 --> 01:04:01,600 Speaker 1: people three hundred years ago. Did you know that there 1127 01:04:01,640 --> 01:04:04,800 Speaker 1: were I'm going to get back to the quote. They 1128 01:04:04,920 --> 01:04:08,440 Speaker 1: believe that there have been about one hundred billion Homo 1129 01:04:08,440 --> 01:04:12,200 Speaker 1: sapiens that have lived on planet Earth since the dawn 1130 01:04:12,280 --> 01:04:15,800 Speaker 1: of time, about a one hundred billion. Today there's about 1131 01:04:15,840 --> 01:04:21,080 Speaker 1: eight billion, so there's about ninety two billion Homo sapiens 1132 01:04:21,120 --> 01:04:25,280 Speaker 1: behind us that have died. And what we live today, 1133 01:04:25,400 --> 01:04:28,840 Speaker 1: by driving cars, by having electricity, by having running water 1134 01:04:28,880 --> 01:04:32,720 Speaker 1: in our house, by being able to communicate via cell phone, 1135 01:04:32,920 --> 01:04:36,720 Speaker 1: by you know, being able to have computers and internet, 1136 01:04:37,360 --> 01:04:42,920 Speaker 1: watch digital imagery on a screen, is something that a 1137 01:04:43,080 --> 01:04:47,640 Speaker 1: minuscule like this is a new human experiment. And what 1138 01:04:47,720 --> 01:04:50,520 Speaker 1: I said was modernity has given us so many things, 1139 01:04:50,560 --> 01:04:55,520 Speaker 1: which much of it good, But we have no idea 1140 01:04:55,640 --> 01:05:02,040 Speaker 1: what we lost, what had? What has all the technology 1141 01:05:02,600 --> 01:05:05,680 Speaker 1: and all the comfort and all the full belly all 1142 01:05:05,720 --> 01:05:10,000 Speaker 1: the time, not having to navigate the landscape. Yeap, what 1143 01:05:10,160 --> 01:05:12,680 Speaker 1: has that taken from us? And that we have no idea? 1144 01:05:13,800 --> 01:05:15,560 Speaker 2: Yep, yep, I agree. 1145 01:05:16,840 --> 01:05:19,080 Speaker 1: I was gonna I was gonna say one more thing. 1146 01:05:19,480 --> 01:05:23,040 Speaker 1: When we were talking about you were talking about kind 1147 01:05:23,080 --> 01:05:30,680 Speaker 1: of unexplainable things that people do that are like beyond rationality. 1148 01:05:31,000 --> 01:05:33,720 Speaker 1: This this book Arctic Dreams by Barry Lopez. It was 1149 01:05:33,760 --> 01:05:37,320 Speaker 1: talking about when the Europeans first interfaced with the Inuit 1150 01:05:37,400 --> 01:05:44,600 Speaker 1: people in the Arctic, and they were when they talked 1151 01:05:44,720 --> 01:05:48,400 Speaker 1: to the Indian people, they were they didn't think they 1152 01:05:48,480 --> 01:05:53,480 Speaker 1: understood direction because the way that the Inuits said directions 1153 01:05:53,520 --> 01:05:56,920 Speaker 1: and described the landscape was way different than the Europeans. 1154 01:05:56,920 --> 01:06:00,160 Speaker 1: It was like this collision of two thinking systems and 1155 01:06:00,160 --> 01:06:05,240 Speaker 1: in two ways to view the earth. But they noted 1156 01:06:06,040 --> 01:06:13,160 Speaker 1: the unreal navigational system that the Inuits had, and there 1157 01:06:13,200 --> 01:06:18,320 Speaker 1: were accounts of you know, guys on sea ice walking 1158 01:06:18,680 --> 01:06:22,240 Speaker 1: in the dark in snowstorms. 1159 01:06:21,200 --> 01:06:23,240 Speaker 3: Like straight back to their villages. 1160 01:06:23,800 --> 01:06:26,920 Speaker 1: They can imagine that the sea ice out there is 1161 01:06:27,480 --> 01:06:30,840 Speaker 1: just like flat, like there's there's no there's no topography 1162 01:06:30,880 --> 01:06:34,280 Speaker 1: because it's ice, and you would go they would you know. 1163 01:06:34,280 --> 01:06:37,240 Speaker 1: I don't remember the exact circumstance, but basically they would 1164 01:06:37,280 --> 01:06:41,280 Speaker 1: be miles and miles out on sea ice, and these 1165 01:06:41,320 --> 01:06:44,640 Speaker 1: inuits would be like homestea, and I mean it was 1166 01:06:44,640 --> 01:06:46,720 Speaker 1: like a white out in the dark. 1167 01:06:48,200 --> 01:06:50,240 Speaker 3: You would die if you had to stay out there, 1168 01:06:50,480 --> 01:06:53,600 Speaker 3: and they could just walk home. It's like, what's governing 1169 01:06:53,640 --> 01:06:54,840 Speaker 3: that so interesting? 1170 01:06:55,080 --> 01:06:58,240 Speaker 5: A dog can do that? Animals do that. We've lost 1171 01:06:58,320 --> 01:07:01,360 Speaker 5: those skills. We don't need them. I don't even want 1172 01:07:01,400 --> 01:07:03,200 Speaker 5: to be able to do that. I don't need that. 1173 01:07:03,520 --> 01:07:06,240 Speaker 5: I got a phone, I got a compass, you know 1174 01:07:06,240 --> 01:07:08,960 Speaker 5: what I mean. I don't want to waste my brain 1175 01:07:09,040 --> 01:07:10,320 Speaker 5: power on something like that. 1176 01:07:11,040 --> 01:07:12,960 Speaker 1: Yeah, but you throw a. 1177 01:07:12,920 --> 01:07:15,600 Speaker 5: Dog out ten miles from your house and he'll be 1178 01:07:15,640 --> 01:07:18,240 Speaker 5: at He'll be at the breakfast table the next morning 1179 01:07:18,320 --> 01:07:19,200 Speaker 5: looking for a biscuit. 1180 01:07:21,320 --> 01:07:22,080 Speaker 1: Very good boy. 1181 01:07:22,040 --> 01:07:25,320 Speaker 5: We've thrown our cats out four or five times that 1182 01:07:25,720 --> 01:07:26,800 Speaker 5: I remember coming back. 1183 01:07:26,840 --> 01:07:29,680 Speaker 2: I remember taking some friends of ours took a cat 1184 01:07:29,720 --> 01:07:32,240 Speaker 2: out to a farm that they lived in town, and 1185 01:07:32,320 --> 01:07:35,920 Speaker 2: it was like thirteen miles and the next morning that 1186 01:07:35,960 --> 01:07:40,080 Speaker 2: cat was home. Really yeah, and even in the middle 1187 01:07:40,120 --> 01:07:40,520 Speaker 2: of town. 1188 01:07:41,000 --> 01:07:41,400 Speaker 1: Wow. 1189 01:07:41,600 --> 01:07:47,160 Speaker 5: Wow, those are skills that we used to have and 1190 01:07:47,200 --> 01:07:51,160 Speaker 5: we've lost and I think it's very good to lose them. 1191 01:07:51,480 --> 01:07:53,400 Speaker 5: So you think it's good to lose I think it 1192 01:07:53,480 --> 01:07:56,320 Speaker 5: is because we've got more capacity to do other things 1193 01:07:56,320 --> 01:07:58,680 Speaker 5: that are more important, you know, Like I say, why 1194 01:07:58,720 --> 01:08:02,240 Speaker 5: do I need to walk cross eyes for thirteen miles 1195 01:08:02,280 --> 01:08:05,200 Speaker 5: to get home? I don't. I mean, I mean, you 1196 01:08:05,240 --> 01:08:05,920 Speaker 5: know what I'm. 1197 01:08:05,760 --> 01:08:08,440 Speaker 1: Saying around here. 1198 01:08:09,480 --> 01:08:14,560 Speaker 5: I gotta work on my handicap, I mean really know anything. 1199 01:08:14,680 --> 01:08:17,800 Speaker 5: But I mean, why waste time when something is useless? 1200 01:08:18,160 --> 01:08:20,200 Speaker 5: I mean, I got, I got it all right here. 1201 01:08:20,880 --> 01:08:24,600 Speaker 5: I'm not gonna I'm not gonna take up my mental 1202 01:08:24,960 --> 01:08:27,280 Speaker 5: amount of brain power on something that's not gonna do 1203 01:08:27,360 --> 01:08:27,840 Speaker 5: any good. 1204 01:08:28,080 --> 01:08:31,839 Speaker 1: Yeah. Well, what you're described, I think he's hyperbolically speaking 1205 01:08:31,880 --> 01:08:34,599 Speaker 1: in a way, like exaggerating to make a point. That's 1206 01:08:34,640 --> 01:08:38,559 Speaker 1: the way your body in biology has functioned. Like basically, 1207 01:08:38,680 --> 01:08:42,960 Speaker 1: essentially your brain has decided that that's true. Because we 1208 01:08:43,120 --> 01:08:47,160 Speaker 1: don't have this incredible homing instinct just naturally. 1209 01:08:47,400 --> 01:08:48,600 Speaker 3: It has to be developed. 1210 01:08:48,880 --> 01:08:54,320 Speaker 1: It probably is even lost generationally, you know, over time. 1211 01:08:54,560 --> 01:08:57,639 Speaker 1: I mean it's possible, way in deep time a child 1212 01:08:57,760 --> 01:08:59,840 Speaker 1: was born and they just had it more than they 1213 01:08:59,840 --> 01:09:00,479 Speaker 1: have it today. 1214 01:09:00,560 --> 01:09:04,000 Speaker 5: I don't know, well, people that I get that I've 1215 01:09:04,000 --> 01:09:06,479 Speaker 5: been with, and y'all have seen the same thing. You 1216 01:09:06,520 --> 01:09:09,160 Speaker 5: can go out in the woods with one particular person 1217 01:09:09,720 --> 01:09:11,680 Speaker 5: and you go, Okay, it's time to go back to 1218 01:09:11,720 --> 01:09:15,120 Speaker 5: the truck. And I mean, I've done it with a 1219 01:09:15,160 --> 01:09:18,320 Speaker 5: guy one time, dragging a deer out and when we 1220 01:09:18,400 --> 01:09:20,640 Speaker 5: started to take off, he went that way and I 1221 01:09:20,680 --> 01:09:25,439 Speaker 5: went this way. You remember that? Yeah, Yeah, some people 1222 01:09:25,680 --> 01:09:30,200 Speaker 5: still have some of that it a stronger degree than others. 1223 01:09:30,560 --> 01:09:30,840 Speaker 1: Uh. 1224 01:09:30,880 --> 01:09:33,080 Speaker 5: And I don't have it. I mean, I'm I'm as 1225 01:09:33,120 --> 01:09:35,160 Speaker 5: lost as a goose. You throw me out in the woods, 1226 01:09:36,720 --> 01:09:38,800 Speaker 5: but I do know to look at moss on the 1227 01:09:38,840 --> 01:09:40,640 Speaker 5: north side of the tree, and it's got me out 1228 01:09:40,640 --> 01:09:42,120 Speaker 5: of the woods a couple of times doing that. 1229 01:09:44,640 --> 01:09:47,840 Speaker 1: Yeah. Well, and I think that there's some correlation to 1230 01:09:47,920 --> 01:09:54,160 Speaker 1: all that with potentially, you know, this water witch and stuff. 1231 01:09:54,479 --> 01:09:57,880 Speaker 1: Potentially like there's there's something nuanced in it. Even doctor 1232 01:09:57,960 --> 01:10:00,760 Speaker 1: ken Effect said that, he said it may not work 1233 01:10:00,800 --> 01:10:03,040 Speaker 1: in a lab because if there's too many variables and 1234 01:10:03,080 --> 01:10:06,360 Speaker 1: we really don't know what we're studying, or perhaps it's 1235 01:10:06,439 --> 01:10:11,599 Speaker 1: incredibly nuanced. And uh. And I think I think if 1236 01:10:11,600 --> 01:10:15,360 Speaker 1: we could go back in time to a Native American 1237 01:10:15,479 --> 01:10:18,760 Speaker 1: from a thousand years ago and just pile around with 1238 01:10:18,840 --> 01:10:19,880 Speaker 1: them for a couple of days. 1239 01:10:20,280 --> 01:10:21,000 Speaker 3: I think we'd be. 1240 01:10:21,000 --> 01:10:25,240 Speaker 1: Shocked at the stuff that they could do, not not physically, 1241 01:10:25,360 --> 01:10:28,240 Speaker 1: like running and jumping and climbing trees, I mean like, 1242 01:10:28,600 --> 01:10:32,800 Speaker 1: but like, I think they would just have an instinctual 1243 01:10:32,880 --> 01:10:35,760 Speaker 1: knowledge of the land that would far sur pass I mean, 1244 01:10:35,880 --> 01:10:38,879 Speaker 1: undoubtedly they would, but I think some of it wouldn't 1245 01:10:38,920 --> 01:10:41,960 Speaker 1: be perceived by physics. I think some of it would 1246 01:10:42,000 --> 01:10:46,479 Speaker 1: be just like that's what makes us human? Is that 1247 01:10:46,520 --> 01:10:53,360 Speaker 1: where we're different than Yeah, interesting stuff, bare thoughts, final thoughts, 1248 01:10:55,840 --> 01:10:58,360 Speaker 1: no final thoughts. No you if you. 1249 01:10:58,840 --> 01:11:01,519 Speaker 3: Drill well you ever have land, you get you wal 1250 01:11:01,720 --> 01:11:02,280 Speaker 3: you're witching it. 1251 01:11:02,360 --> 01:11:03,599 Speaker 1: I'll be witching it for sure. 1252 01:11:03,920 --> 01:11:06,480 Speaker 2: You'll be witching it yourself or your call someone. 1253 01:11:08,280 --> 01:11:08,960 Speaker 6: Depends on how. 1254 01:11:12,360 --> 01:11:13,120 Speaker 3: Wrong answer. 1255 01:11:14,080 --> 01:11:17,840 Speaker 1: You get your old dad to do it, pars, he 1256 01:11:17,880 --> 01:11:22,000 Speaker 1: can do it.
