I have a wild story 21 00:01:44,440 --> 00:01:47,279 Speaker 1: I have been looking forward to telling you for quite 22 00:01:47,319 --> 00:01:52,880 Speaker 1: some time. Of course, you know that. I talk about 23 00:01:52,880 --> 00:01:56,880 Speaker 1: being born in the Blue Ridge Mountains of Asheville, North Carolina, 24 00:01:57,440 --> 00:02:02,280 Speaker 1: and now Ashville is like this fancy tourist town with 25 00:02:02,320 --> 00:02:06,320 Speaker 1: all of these nice hotels and restaurants and breweries. But 26 00:02:06,800 --> 00:02:10,600 Speaker 1: I actually grew up in the country. I grew up 27 00:02:10,639 --> 00:02:13,800 Speaker 1: in the rural area. I went to Irwin High School. 28 00:02:13,840 --> 00:02:16,080 Speaker 1: For those of you who happened to be familiar with 29 00:02:16,120 --> 00:02:19,200 Speaker 1: the area, I hung out a lot growing up in 30 00:02:19,360 --> 00:02:26,919 Speaker 1: Lester and Alexander and Madison County and Haywood County, and 31 00:02:27,000 --> 00:02:29,400 Speaker 1: so I knew a lot of good old country boys. 32 00:02:31,080 --> 00:02:35,040 Speaker 1: And at my high school there were a number of 33 00:02:35,280 --> 00:02:39,840 Speaker 1: friends I had named TJ. And one day at lunch, 34 00:02:41,080 --> 00:02:43,840 Speaker 1: one of the guys named TJ. He sat down and 35 00:02:43,919 --> 00:02:47,520 Speaker 1: he was showing off this big wad of cash, and 36 00:02:47,600 --> 00:02:50,040 Speaker 1: everybody's of course asking him how'd you get that? And 37 00:02:50,080 --> 00:02:52,200 Speaker 1: he was being kind of secretive about it, and then 38 00:02:52,240 --> 00:02:54,959 Speaker 1: finally he couldn't help himself and he told me. He says, man, 39 00:02:55,600 --> 00:02:59,359 Speaker 1: I've been going to the chicken fights, and so what 40 00:02:59,440 --> 00:03:02,400 Speaker 1: are you talking about? And he explained to me that 41 00:03:02,520 --> 00:03:06,399 Speaker 1: on the weekends, I guess, particularly Saturday nights, you could 42 00:03:06,480 --> 00:03:11,880 Speaker 1: drive a couple hours over to Tennessee into Tennessee, way 43 00:03:11,880 --> 00:03:14,480 Speaker 1: back up in the mountains, and you'd go down these old, 44 00:03:15,280 --> 00:03:20,480 Speaker 1: hidden dirt roads and you would finally come upon some 45 00:03:20,680 --> 00:03:23,680 Speaker 1: kind of a giant barn and you would walk inside 46 00:03:23,680 --> 00:03:25,640 Speaker 1: and it was built like a stadium where all of 47 00:03:25,680 --> 00:03:28,680 Speaker 1: these people from the community would come and they would 48 00:03:28,760 --> 00:03:31,560 Speaker 1: fight roosters and they would bet on them, and of 49 00:03:31,560 --> 00:03:35,320 Speaker 1: course this was illegal, but he'd gotten into the habit 50 00:03:35,360 --> 00:03:37,560 Speaker 1: of going, and he was very good at predicting which 51 00:03:37,680 --> 00:03:40,520 Speaker 1: rooster was going to win. And he says, man, I 52 00:03:41,080 --> 00:03:42,720 Speaker 1: want somebody to come with me. I'll take you one 53 00:03:42,720 --> 00:03:44,680 Speaker 1: weekend if you want to go. So I said, you 54 00:03:44,720 --> 00:03:46,720 Speaker 1: know what, I got to see this. So sure enough, 55 00:03:47,120 --> 00:03:50,440 Speaker 1: just the two of us, we dressed up as as 56 00:03:50,680 --> 00:03:55,080 Speaker 1: country as possible and it was exactly as he described. 57 00:03:55,120 --> 00:03:59,080 Speaker 1: I was amazed. We went down all these twisty roads 58 00:03:59,600 --> 00:04:03,720 Speaker 1: and finally there it was this huge structure and inside 59 00:04:03,880 --> 00:04:08,440 Speaker 1: it looked like a gen Claude van Dam movie. It 60 00:04:08,520 --> 00:04:11,080 Speaker 1: was just packed. It was like an arena. All these 61 00:04:11,120 --> 00:04:17,200 Speaker 1: people were packed in a circular fashion, you know, like 62 00:04:17,279 --> 00:04:22,479 Speaker 1: some Roman gladiator design, and the and everybody's cheering and 63 00:04:22,520 --> 00:04:25,840 Speaker 1: screaming and they're waving cash in their hands. And these 64 00:04:25,960 --> 00:04:28,520 Speaker 1: two guys would come out with their roosters and they 65 00:04:28,520 --> 00:04:30,599 Speaker 1: would agitate them and then let them go at it 66 00:04:30,640 --> 00:04:32,920 Speaker 1: and fight, and people would bet on this, and I 67 00:04:33,040 --> 00:04:35,920 Speaker 1: was just I was amazed because we were sitting there 68 00:04:35,960 --> 00:04:38,480 Speaker 1: and of course start selling hot dogs and popcorn. I mean, 69 00:04:38,560 --> 00:04:40,640 Speaker 1: just like, you know, this is just you would never 70 00:04:40,680 --> 00:04:43,160 Speaker 1: think that you're somewhere where this is illegal. And at 71 00:04:43,160 --> 00:04:45,800 Speaker 1: one point I looked over and I go, oh, and 72 00:04:45,880 --> 00:04:49,880 Speaker 1: I see a guy standing there, looks like a deputy 73 00:04:49,960 --> 00:04:53,200 Speaker 1: or somebody. He's clearly in uniform and he has a 74 00:04:53,240 --> 00:04:56,919 Speaker 1: badge on. And I said to my friend, I teach a, 75 00:04:57,279 --> 00:04:58,600 Speaker 1: do we need to hit the road? Looks like the 76 00:04:59,120 --> 00:05:01,960 Speaker 1: laws here. He goes, Oh, no, no, we're Cooley, he says. 77 00:05:02,160 --> 00:05:06,680 Speaker 1: The sheriff rounds the whole thing. I said, what. Yeah. 78 00:05:06,760 --> 00:05:11,440 Speaker 1: I was so amazed that this was taking place so 79 00:05:12,279 --> 00:05:15,240 Speaker 1: and was so accepted, you know, in this community, that 80 00:05:15,320 --> 00:05:18,360 Speaker 1: I thought I need to tell this story somehow. And 81 00:05:18,440 --> 00:05:22,120 Speaker 1: of course I started publishing books when I was a teenager, 82 00:05:22,960 --> 00:05:26,280 Speaker 1: and so I was trying my hand at all kinds 83 00:05:26,320 --> 00:05:28,080 Speaker 1: of writing. And at one point I said, you know, 84 00:05:28,320 --> 00:05:31,159 Speaker 1: I'm going to try to write a screenplay, and I 85 00:05:31,200 --> 00:05:34,400 Speaker 1: figured that a comedy would be an easy thing to write, 86 00:05:34,520 --> 00:05:37,680 Speaker 1: and so I took my experience there, and I guess 87 00:05:37,680 --> 00:05:39,719 Speaker 1: when I was about eighteen years old, I wrote this 88 00:05:39,960 --> 00:05:46,080 Speaker 1: screenplay about these good old boys who go chicken fighting 89 00:05:47,000 --> 00:05:51,120 Speaker 1: and they have this prized rooster and he gets stolen 90 00:05:51,200 --> 00:05:53,240 Speaker 1: and then they go on this big adventure to try 91 00:05:53,279 --> 00:05:56,520 Speaker 1: to retrieve this rooster. Okay, that was my plot. So 92 00:05:56,600 --> 00:06:00,679 Speaker 1: I wrote this screenplay. I wanted it to have a catchy, 93 00:06:00,960 --> 00:06:04,000 Speaker 1: kind of wild, crazy sounding name, so I called it 94 00:06:04,080 --> 00:06:10,000 Speaker 1: in Bread Rednecks, and I sent this screenplay all over 95 00:06:10,200 --> 00:06:14,080 Speaker 1: the country, you know, to all the producers, and everybody 96 00:06:14,120 --> 00:06:18,960 Speaker 1: turned it down. But everybody I told about it said, man, 97 00:06:19,000 --> 00:06:20,920 Speaker 1: this would be a hilarious movie and it wouldn't be 98 00:06:21,000 --> 00:06:23,640 Speaker 1: that expensive to make blah blah blah. And so I 99 00:06:23,720 --> 00:06:28,000 Speaker 1: kind of talked myself into making the movie myself, and 100 00:06:28,040 --> 00:06:30,120 Speaker 1: I thought, yeah, it wouldn't be that expensive to make. 101 00:06:30,720 --> 00:06:34,359 Speaker 1: So I had never touched a sixteen millimeter film camera 102 00:06:34,400 --> 00:06:36,000 Speaker 1: in my life. I went out and bought one of 103 00:06:36,000 --> 00:06:39,880 Speaker 1: those for a few thousand books, taught myself barely how 104 00:06:39,920 --> 00:06:44,680 Speaker 1: to use it, and I took I set aside a budget. 105 00:06:44,720 --> 00:06:47,599 Speaker 1: You know, My budget was twenty five thousand dollars. I 106 00:06:47,600 --> 00:06:49,560 Speaker 1: had made a decent amount of money early on in 107 00:06:49,560 --> 00:06:52,520 Speaker 1: life because of my books were selling really well. So 108 00:06:52,600 --> 00:06:54,600 Speaker 1: I took twenty five thousand dollars. I went to the 109 00:06:54,640 --> 00:06:58,359 Speaker 1: local radio station, I put out a casting call, had 110 00:06:58,400 --> 00:07:01,640 Speaker 1: this big audition. Half of the people who got roles 111 00:07:01,640 --> 00:07:05,719 Speaker 1: were people who worked at the radio station because they're 112 00:07:05,800 --> 00:07:11,040 Speaker 1: natural hams, you know. And long story short, there ended 113 00:07:11,120 --> 00:07:14,400 Speaker 1: up being over one thousand people involved in this. It 114 00:07:14,480 --> 00:07:16,800 Speaker 1: took us, you know, a couple months to shoot it. 115 00:07:16,880 --> 00:07:20,320 Speaker 1: We had bar fights and car chases and like all 116 00:07:20,400 --> 00:07:23,760 Speaker 1: that kind of good old dukes of hazard stuff. We 117 00:07:23,840 --> 00:07:27,440 Speaker 1: lived on this estate out in Barnardsville called Greystone, and 118 00:07:27,680 --> 00:07:31,440 Speaker 1: Johnny and Cindy Capps, who owned Graystone, were just unbelievably 119 00:07:31,520 --> 00:07:35,520 Speaker 1: generous with their property and their resources and giving us 120 00:07:35,680 --> 00:07:38,160 Speaker 1: a base camp and a place to stay and live, 121 00:07:38,240 --> 00:07:41,720 Speaker 1: you know, out in the sticks when we're making this movie. 122 00:07:42,000 --> 00:07:44,800 Speaker 1: So when the movie came out right off the bat, 123 00:07:44,840 --> 00:07:47,920 Speaker 1: you know, we had problems, Like at the premiere, people 124 00:07:47,920 --> 00:07:49,880 Speaker 1: flew in from all over for the premiere and the 125 00:07:50,040 --> 00:07:52,480 Speaker 1: projector broke down halfway through the movie. And like you know, 126 00:07:52,520 --> 00:07:55,640 Speaker 1: we got off to a really bad start. But I 127 00:07:55,680 --> 00:07:58,960 Speaker 1: started shopping this movie around to film festivals. That was 128 00:07:59,000 --> 00:08:02,000 Speaker 1: my first step, and it started doing actually really well. 129 00:08:03,480 --> 00:08:06,960 Speaker 1: None of the major ones. It not like Sun Dance 130 00:08:07,040 --> 00:08:08,760 Speaker 1: or anything like that, but there are a lot of 131 00:08:08,760 --> 00:08:12,000 Speaker 1: film festivals out there, and it started winning awards, and 132 00:08:12,040 --> 00:08:16,560 Speaker 1: it started getting reviews that were good, where people were saying, basically, like, 133 00:08:16,960 --> 00:08:20,880 Speaker 1: this movie sucks, but it's hilarious. It's one of those. 134 00:08:21,000 --> 00:08:26,880 Speaker 1: It was always like a backhanded compliment, one of those 135 00:08:27,560 --> 00:08:29,680 Speaker 1: I guess so bad, it's good kind of thing. I 136 00:08:29,720 --> 00:08:32,160 Speaker 1: don't know, but like, I'll give you an example here 137 00:08:33,000 --> 00:08:36,320 Speaker 1: on IMDb. Here's the first review that pops up. I 138 00:08:36,400 --> 00:08:39,000 Speaker 1: just was looking at this as I was prepping for 139 00:08:39,040 --> 00:08:43,079 Speaker 1: the show. The review is titled this movie is hilarious, 140 00:08:43,640 --> 00:08:46,200 Speaker 1: and then then it starts off and says, horrible script, 141 00:08:46,280 --> 00:08:50,440 Speaker 1: horrible direction, horrible lighting, horrible jokes, horrible sound, horrible acting. 142 00:08:50,760 --> 00:08:52,880 Speaker 1: So why do I love it so much? It has 143 00:08:52,960 --> 00:08:55,640 Speaker 1: this great homie fell to it. You can tell everybody 144 00:08:55,679 --> 00:08:58,720 Speaker 1: who made the film as friends. There are some hilarious scenes, 145 00:08:59,080 --> 00:09:02,000 Speaker 1: and he goes on to numerous times in college I 146 00:09:02,040 --> 00:09:04,240 Speaker 1: would rent this in my roommates and I loved it. 147 00:09:05,559 --> 00:09:08,800 Speaker 1: And he basically ends by saying, watch this movie. It's 148 00:09:08,800 --> 00:09:12,640 Speaker 1: a funny, funny movie. See it. If you like gross, crude, 149 00:09:12,720 --> 00:09:16,040 Speaker 1: poorly done movies, I give this movie. I think he 150 00:09:16,080 --> 00:09:19,240 Speaker 1: says ten or something like that. So anyway, look, that's 151 00:09:19,280 --> 00:09:21,200 Speaker 1: the kind of stuff. It was really weird stuff like that. 152 00:09:21,240 --> 00:09:23,600 Speaker 1: But I can kind of understand it. You know, it's fine. 153 00:09:24,480 --> 00:09:27,000 Speaker 1: I mean, I admit it. Yeah, it was a love 154 00:09:27,160 --> 00:09:32,320 Speaker 1: super low budget movie made by inexperienced people, but it 155 00:09:32,360 --> 00:09:35,280 Speaker 1: has this sort of appeal. I mean, like, for example, now, 156 00:09:35,320 --> 00:09:36,680 Speaker 1: I guess I don't know. I wouldn't call it a 157 00:09:36,679 --> 00:09:40,040 Speaker 1: cult classic, but it's definitely got an underground audience that 158 00:09:40,080 --> 00:09:41,959 Speaker 1: loves it so much that I've met people who have 159 00:09:42,080 --> 00:09:46,320 Speaker 1: tattooed the logo from that movie on their arms. I 160 00:09:46,360 --> 00:09:49,160 Speaker 1: finally got this kind of low level distributor in New 161 00:09:49,240 --> 00:09:53,800 Speaker 1: York to distribute the film, and you know, it appeared 162 00:09:53,840 --> 00:09:56,480 Speaker 1: to have sold poorly. I never made that twenty five 163 00:09:56,520 --> 00:09:58,959 Speaker 1: thousand dollars back, so you know, it's just one of 164 00:09:59,000 --> 00:10:01,280 Speaker 1: those goofy things that I did a long time ago. 165 00:10:02,040 --> 00:10:04,960 Speaker 1: Again I'm talking. I think I shot it in nineteen 166 00:10:05,040 --> 00:10:07,680 Speaker 1: ninety six and it ended up being released on DVD 167 00:10:07,840 --> 00:10:12,559 Speaker 1: or VHS, I guess in nineteen ninety eight. So we're 168 00:10:12,559 --> 00:10:14,720 Speaker 1: talking about, you know, like twenty five years ago, right, 169 00:10:15,760 --> 00:10:18,280 Speaker 1: And it's not something I think about very often. In fact, 170 00:10:18,280 --> 00:10:19,920 Speaker 1: that it's you can watch it for free if you 171 00:10:19,960 --> 00:10:22,680 Speaker 1: want to go to YouTube and just look up Inbred 172 00:10:22,720 --> 00:10:24,880 Speaker 1: Rednecks and I'm sure it'll pop up there for you. 173 00:10:25,000 --> 00:10:26,800 Speaker 1: But I do not recommend that you do that, but 174 00:10:26,840 --> 00:10:29,920 Speaker 1: if you're curious, you can. I actually am in the movie. 175 00:10:29,960 --> 00:10:33,400 Speaker 1: You'll see a very young, much thinner version of myself 176 00:10:33,400 --> 00:10:40,480 Speaker 1: in that movie. So here's the wild story. A few 177 00:10:40,480 --> 00:10:43,959 Speaker 1: weeks ago, I don't know what happened. I was looking 178 00:10:44,040 --> 00:10:48,120 Speaker 1: up something about some reviews that I got on something, 179 00:10:48,520 --> 00:10:51,920 Speaker 1: and I came across the IMDb page for this movie 180 00:10:52,000 --> 00:10:56,600 Speaker 1: inm Bred Rednecks. Now, IMDb is like the Internet movie database. 181 00:10:57,200 --> 00:11:01,240 Speaker 1: Just about every production out there has an IMDb page, 182 00:11:01,240 --> 00:11:03,199 Speaker 1: and it tells you who all the cast and crew are, 183 00:11:03,280 --> 00:11:05,000 Speaker 1: and it's got, you know, kind of links to the 184 00:11:05,040 --> 00:11:09,120 Speaker 1: whole project. So I was looking at the IMDb page 185 00:11:09,440 --> 00:11:14,840 Speaker 1: for Inbred Rednecks and it says right here in the 186 00:11:14,840 --> 00:11:19,240 Speaker 1: middle connections and then it says referenced in the movie 187 00:11:19,559 --> 00:11:23,640 Speaker 1: Jersey Girl in two thousand and four, and I was like, 188 00:11:23,720 --> 00:11:30,600 Speaker 1: what referenced in Jersey Girl. That's a major mainstream movie 189 00:11:31,160 --> 00:11:39,360 Speaker 1: starring Ben Affleck, produced by Kevin Smith. This story, this, 190 00:11:39,559 --> 00:11:41,839 Speaker 1: I don't know, This blew my mind. When we come 191 00:11:41,880 --> 00:11:44,360 Speaker 1: back from this break, what I tell you might blow 192 00:11:44,400 --> 00:11:47,040 Speaker 1: your mind as well.

I've got a pretty wild twist for you 241 00:14:56,360 --> 00:14:59,680 Speaker 1: and the story about the movie I made. But first off, 242 00:15:00,040 --> 00:15:03,040 Speaker 1: I want to get this out of the way. Have 243 00:15:03,160 --> 00:15:08,720 Speaker 1: some sad news. It breaks my heart to report that 244 00:15:09,120 --> 00:15:16,600 Speaker 1: our dog Lama has passed on. She was just too 245 00:15:16,720 --> 00:15:22,120 Speaker 1: old and the cancer was just too advanced. We did 246 00:15:22,160 --> 00:15:26,840 Speaker 1: everything we could, but you know what, I sincerely believe 247 00:15:27,000 --> 00:15:30,520 Speaker 1: that your prayers and all the things that you did 248 00:15:31,160 --> 00:15:37,120 Speaker 1: extended her life because she lived happily, much longer than 249 00:15:37,160 --> 00:15:43,880 Speaker 1: the doctor's thought. And you know it's I'd like to 250 00:15:43,960 --> 00:15:46,680 Speaker 1: tell you at some point the whole story of what 251 00:15:46,880 --> 00:15:49,320 Speaker 1: happened and some of the things that we did that 252 00:15:49,400 --> 00:15:51,640 Speaker 1: may be beneficial to you if you have a pet, 253 00:15:51,960 --> 00:15:54,800 Speaker 1: and some of the people who helped us. I'm not 254 00:15:54,800 --> 00:15:57,120 Speaker 1: going to do that on this podcast. I will record 255 00:15:57,160 --> 00:15:59,720 Speaker 1: it and put it somewhere on the internet, and then 256 00:15:59,720 --> 00:16:01,760 Speaker 1: I'll I'll tell you how you can go listen to 257 00:16:01,800 --> 00:16:04,200 Speaker 1: it if you want to, because I don't want you 258 00:16:04,240 --> 00:16:06,320 Speaker 1: to listen to this show and get sad, because we 259 00:16:06,360 --> 00:16:08,160 Speaker 1: know in the end of this story a dog is 260 00:16:08,200 --> 00:16:12,120 Speaker 1: going to die. But you know, I felt like I 261 00:16:12,120 --> 00:16:14,600 Speaker 1: needed to let you know. And so you know, obviously 262 00:16:14,720 --> 00:16:16,680 Speaker 1: Lauren and I have been having a very tough time, 263 00:16:17,400 --> 00:16:20,920 Speaker 1: but you know, like I say, I just am so 264 00:16:21,040 --> 00:16:23,200 Speaker 1: grateful for all the things that you did to help us. 265 00:16:23,240 --> 00:16:25,080 Speaker 1: So I'll let you know when I finally I am ready 266 00:16:25,080 --> 00:16:27,280 Speaker 1: to talk about it, and I record the full story 267 00:16:27,320 --> 00:16:30,120 Speaker 1: and and then, like I said, I'll tell you how 268 00:16:30,160 --> 00:16:33,760 Speaker 1: to listen to it. And you know what, also there 269 00:16:33,840 --> 00:16:36,000 Speaker 1: is I've just been I've been reading about this mystery 270 00:16:36,080 --> 00:16:39,840 Speaker 1: illness that some dogs are getting around the country. And 271 00:16:40,640 --> 00:16:42,800 Speaker 1: you know what, if you go to the sigil lab 272 00:16:42,880 --> 00:16:45,880 Speaker 1: dot com, there is a free sigil there for pet 273 00:16:45,920 --> 00:16:49,680 Speaker 1: protection and don't wait till it's too late.

But if you 277 00:17:00,120 --> 00:17:02,720 Speaker 1: rolled down to the bottom, there's a link that says 278 00:17:02,760 --> 00:17:06,719 Speaker 1: for more info on parasimattics sigels, click here, and if 279 00:17:06,760 --> 00:17:08,600 Speaker 1: you click that, it's going to take you to a 280 00:17:08,640 --> 00:17:12,199 Speaker 1: big page with all kinds of free sigils, and one 281 00:17:12,280 --> 00:17:15,560 Speaker 1: of them is for pet protection. So get that thing 282 00:17:15,720 --> 00:17:19,040 Speaker 1: printed out, put it near where your pet hangs out. 283 00:17:19,240 --> 00:17:21,199 Speaker 1: You know, you might even consider turning it into a 284 00:17:21,240 --> 00:17:26,720 Speaker 1: little necklace or something for your pet. All right, back 285 00:17:26,760 --> 00:17:31,199 Speaker 1: to this weird story here. I see on IMDb that 286 00:17:31,280 --> 00:17:35,600 Speaker 1: it claims this a very obscure movie that I made 287 00:17:37,280 --> 00:17:40,399 Speaker 1: twenty five or so years ago, is somehow connected to 288 00:17:40,640 --> 00:17:45,119 Speaker 1: this mainstream movie called Jersey Girl that came out in 289 00:17:45,160 --> 00:17:47,720 Speaker 1: two thousand and four. This is a thirty five million 290 00:17:47,760 --> 00:17:53,399 Speaker 1: dollar film starring Ben Affleck and Liv Tyler, who of 291 00:17:53,400 --> 00:17:57,239 Speaker 1: course is the daughter of Aerosmith singer Steven Tyler. It 292 00:17:57,280 --> 00:18:01,080 Speaker 1: even had George Carlin in it, and it was directed 293 00:18:01,119 --> 00:18:05,160 Speaker 1: by Kevin Smith. And you know he's very famous for 294 00:18:05,480 --> 00:18:07,439 Speaker 1: like well, he's made a lot of movies, but his 295 00:18:07,480 --> 00:18:10,720 Speaker 1: big hit was this little independent movie he may call Clerks. 296 00:18:10,760 --> 00:18:14,240 Speaker 1: Back in the day and I thought, well, what possible 297 00:18:14,280 --> 00:18:17,400 Speaker 1: connection could there be. I've never seen the movie Jersey Girl. 298 00:18:19,320 --> 00:18:24,000 Speaker 1: So I rented Jersey Girl. I went to Amazon, and 299 00:18:24,800 --> 00:18:27,240 Speaker 1: actually I guess I bought it and then I just 300 00:18:27,280 --> 00:18:32,960 Speaker 1: started scanning through it and to my absolute shock, I mean, 301 00:18:34,760 --> 00:18:39,840 Speaker 1: one hour, one minute and eighteen seconds into the movie 302 00:18:39,960 --> 00:18:44,240 Speaker 1: Jersey Girl, there is a scene where Ben Affleck and 303 00:18:45,240 --> 00:18:49,920 Speaker 1: Liv Tyler are in a video rental store and apparently 304 00:18:49,960 --> 00:18:54,240 Speaker 1: she works there and she's walking along working and he's 305 00:18:54,280 --> 00:18:56,760 Speaker 1: talking to her. And at one hour, one minute and 306 00:18:56,800 --> 00:18:59,920 Speaker 1: eighteen seconds in that movie, right next to Live Tyler's 307 00:19:00,080 --> 00:19:04,879 Speaker 1: head on the shelf to the left there, directly in 308 00:19:04,960 --> 00:19:08,760 Speaker 1: line with her head is the cover box for my 309 00:19:08,960 --> 00:19:14,560 Speaker 1: movie and Bred Rednecks, And it's very recognizable because it 310 00:19:14,640 --> 00:19:20,160 Speaker 1: has it has one of the characters from the movie 311 00:19:21,160 --> 00:19:24,119 Speaker 1: shooting a bird, and so you can't miss that. And 312 00:19:24,160 --> 00:19:26,879 Speaker 1: I was just like, again, my jaw hit the floor. 313 00:19:26,920 --> 00:19:33,160 Speaker 1: I couldn't believe this. And I know that Kevin Smith, 314 00:19:33,320 --> 00:19:35,080 Speaker 1: he used to work in a video store, and I'm 315 00:19:35,119 --> 00:19:37,720 Speaker 1: sure he was very particular about every single box that 316 00:19:37,840 --> 00:19:40,120 Speaker 1: was placed in every scene of that movie. In fact, 317 00:19:40,160 --> 00:19:42,679 Speaker 1: right next to it or right near it on the 318 00:19:42,680 --> 00:19:45,040 Speaker 1: shelf is one of the Batman movies. I think it 319 00:19:45,080 --> 00:19:48,480 Speaker 1: was The Batman with Val Kilmer in it, and so, 320 00:19:48,680 --> 00:19:53,240 Speaker 1: I mean, I was just like astounded that my movie, 321 00:19:53,280 --> 00:19:56,199 Speaker 1: my little obscure movie, is in a scene of a 322 00:19:56,280 --> 00:20:00,160 Speaker 1: major movie with liv Tyler and Ben Affleck standing right there, 323 00:20:00,359 --> 00:20:05,200 Speaker 1: and it's been there for twenty years. Jersey Girl came 324 00:20:05,200 --> 00:20:09,399 Speaker 1: out in two thousand and four. Somebody went to IMDb 325 00:20:09,480 --> 00:20:13,320 Speaker 1: and posted it, but nobody ever told me about it 326 00:20:13,720 --> 00:20:17,439 Speaker 1: over the past twenty years. I just, like Lauren, and 327 00:20:17,480 --> 00:20:19,359 Speaker 1: I could not get over that. That was one of 328 00:20:19,400 --> 00:20:24,480 Speaker 1: the weirdest, craziest things that I don't know. Maybe you 329 00:20:24,520 --> 00:20:26,479 Speaker 1: don't think that's as weird as I do, but if 330 00:20:26,520 --> 00:20:29,240 Speaker 1: you put yourself in my position, maybe you know it'll 331 00:20:29,280 --> 00:20:32,119 Speaker 1: make sense to you. And something else that's interesting there 332 00:20:32,400 --> 00:20:34,679 Speaker 1: may have been there must have been somebody maybe in 333 00:20:34,680 --> 00:20:36,960 Speaker 1: that production, you know, who was kind of familiar with 334 00:20:37,000 --> 00:20:39,760 Speaker 1: more like regional indie films and stuff, because in the 335 00:20:39,800 --> 00:20:44,960 Speaker 1: scene before that, there was a song being played by 336 00:20:45,040 --> 00:20:49,200 Speaker 1: Ben Folds. You know Ben Folds five and Ben Folds 337 00:20:49,720 --> 00:20:53,679 Speaker 1: he grew up in western North Carolina, So there are 338 00:20:53,720 --> 00:20:55,760 Speaker 1: at least two connections right there that I know, even 339 00:20:55,760 --> 00:20:57,760 Speaker 1: though this movie is called Jersey Girl and it's all 340 00:20:57,800 --> 00:20:59,760 Speaker 1: filmed around New Jersey and New York and stuff. So 341 00:21:00,680 --> 00:21:01,960 Speaker 1: I don't know. I just had to tell you that 342 00:21:02,040 --> 00:21:06,360 Speaker 1: personal story about this movie that I made and the 343 00:21:06,400 --> 00:21:13,200 Speaker 1: bizarro life it has had since then. And I somebody said, 344 00:21:13,240 --> 00:21:15,360 Speaker 1: you should contact Kevin Smith and tell him you want 345 00:21:15,400 --> 00:21:19,840 Speaker 1: your little piece of his pie. But I like Kevin Smith. 346 00:21:20,080 --> 00:21:24,560 Speaker 1: I don't want to stain any relationship I might have 347 00:21:24,640 --> 00:21:29,920 Speaker 1: with him one day. I'm actually very flattered by it, honestly, 348 00:21:31,320 --> 00:21:34,680 Speaker 1: and this whole concept of movies. And oh yeah, by 349 00:21:34,680 --> 00:21:36,840 Speaker 1: the way, I did make another movie that I started 350 00:21:36,920 --> 00:21:41,879 Speaker 1: in that I think is better. This is more recent. 351 00:21:41,920 --> 00:21:44,280 Speaker 1: This came out in twenty fifteen. Go to YouTube, but 352 00:21:44,320 --> 00:21:46,520 Speaker 1: you can watch it for free. It's called The Commodore. 353 00:21:47,000 --> 00:21:50,520 Speaker 1: If you just type in the Commodore and my name, 354 00:21:50,560 --> 00:21:52,879 Speaker 1: I guess it'll probably come up. I think that's a 355 00:21:52,920 --> 00:21:56,800 Speaker 1: better movie. Others disagree, but anyway, go check that out. 356 00:21:56,800 --> 00:21:58,720 Speaker 1: It's got me and my buddy c Eric Scott, and 357 00:21:58,840 --> 00:22:03,800 Speaker 1: it's a comedy as well. I started thinking about movies though, 358 00:22:04,480 --> 00:22:08,000 Speaker 1: and how that there are certain movies that you know, 359 00:22:08,040 --> 00:22:10,240 Speaker 1: they make an impact on you, and some of them 360 00:22:10,240 --> 00:22:13,960 Speaker 1: make a strange impact. And you know, we have holidays 361 00:22:14,119 --> 00:22:18,000 Speaker 1: year round all in this world, and a lot of 362 00:22:18,000 --> 00:22:21,240 Speaker 1: people they say, for the holidays, I'm just gonna sit 363 00:22:21,280 --> 00:22:24,800 Speaker 1: down and watch movies. So I thought what I would 364 00:22:24,840 --> 00:22:27,960 Speaker 1: do is share with you just a kind of a 365 00:22:28,000 --> 00:22:32,280 Speaker 1: short list of some of the movies that I think 366 00:22:34,680 --> 00:22:41,560 Speaker 1: tap into a very cerebral element of understanding reality. You know, 367 00:22:41,640 --> 00:22:45,600 Speaker 1: what is reality? So I think kind of, you know, 368 00:22:45,760 --> 00:22:47,719 Speaker 1: it doesn't have to be a holiday. Kind of a 369 00:22:47,760 --> 00:22:51,439 Speaker 1: mind boggling way to spend a weekend would be to 370 00:22:51,720 --> 00:22:57,920 Speaker 1: watch these movies back to back, even if you've already 371 00:22:57,920 --> 00:23:01,399 Speaker 1: seen them in the past. I have this little list 372 00:23:01,440 --> 00:23:04,240 Speaker 1: of movies that I just think like this would make 373 00:23:04,240 --> 00:23:06,200 Speaker 1: a heck of an evening if you just watch these 374 00:23:06,200 --> 00:23:10,159 Speaker 1: first three back to back in one day. There's a 375 00:23:10,200 --> 00:23:13,720 Speaker 1: fourth one I can toss in there as well. It's 376 00:23:13,760 --> 00:23:17,680 Speaker 1: tricky to talk about these movies without spoiling them. I'm 377 00:23:17,680 --> 00:23:20,920 Speaker 1: not gonna go into a lot of detail here. I'm 378 00:23:20,960 --> 00:23:22,600 Speaker 1: just gonna kind of even tell you off the top 379 00:23:22,640 --> 00:23:24,600 Speaker 1: of my head sort of what it's about and leave 380 00:23:24,640 --> 00:23:28,280 Speaker 1: it at that. So make a list, do you want to? 381 00:23:28,320 --> 00:23:31,600 Speaker 1: You know, I don't know how it's it's so we're 382 00:23:31,640 --> 00:23:34,399 Speaker 1: so futuristic now. I think people just make lists on 383 00:23:34,440 --> 00:23:36,680 Speaker 1: their phones. They don't even take out a pen and paper. 384 00:23:38,000 --> 00:23:42,320 Speaker 1: Try watching these three movies back to back. The first 385 00:23:42,320 --> 00:23:46,679 Speaker 1: one is kind of a The Matrix. That movie came 386 00:23:46,720 --> 00:23:50,159 Speaker 1: out in nineteen ninety nine with Keanu Reeves, and you 387 00:23:50,160 --> 00:23:52,480 Speaker 1: know what's funny. Recently, I was talking about how that 388 00:23:52,600 --> 00:23:56,440 Speaker 1: name Reeve and Reeves and stuff is connected to a 389 00:23:56,480 --> 00:24:01,120 Speaker 1: lot of often tragedy, and Lauren reminded me that Keanu 390 00:24:01,160 --> 00:24:04,600 Speaker 1: Reeves had some tragedy in his life as well. I 391 00:24:04,720 --> 00:24:07,040 Speaker 1: don't remember exactly what it was, but I want to 392 00:24:07,080 --> 00:24:10,159 Speaker 1: say that some of his family members, close family members 393 00:24:10,160 --> 00:24:12,240 Speaker 1: may have died in a car accident or something like that. 394 00:24:14,040 --> 00:24:16,560 Speaker 1: I'll check on that and correct myself if I'm wrong. 395 00:24:16,960 --> 00:24:20,320 Speaker 1: But The Matrix, of course, the first time I saw 396 00:24:20,359 --> 00:24:24,760 Speaker 1: The Matrix, I actually didn't quite get it. I saw 397 00:24:24,800 --> 00:24:27,000 Speaker 1: it in the theater and I was just, I don't know, 398 00:24:27,119 --> 00:24:29,720 Speaker 1: I just didn't connect with it. I kind of found 399 00:24:29,720 --> 00:24:32,200 Speaker 1: it sort of boring and it lost me in certain parts. 400 00:24:33,080 --> 00:24:36,080 Speaker 1: But then it was later on, when I with subsequent 401 00:24:36,200 --> 00:24:39,240 Speaker 1: views and thinking more about it, that it started connecting, 402 00:24:39,320 --> 00:24:47,120 Speaker 1: and then it became almost eerie because you start thinking, well, 403 00:24:47,119 --> 00:24:50,240 Speaker 1: what if this is how it works? And again, I 404 00:24:50,240 --> 00:24:51,679 Speaker 1: don't want to spoil it for you, but it's kind 405 00:24:51,680 --> 00:24:55,280 Speaker 1: of about the idea that we're all sort of living 406 00:24:55,320 --> 00:24:59,840 Speaker 1: into a virtual reality, that our brains are plugged into 407 00:25:00,080 --> 00:25:02,880 Speaker 1: this thing that we perceive as reality, but our bodies 408 00:25:02,920 --> 00:25:05,280 Speaker 1: are actually somewhere else and they're being used in a 409 00:25:05,320 --> 00:25:10,240 Speaker 1: different way. So that's a good and that's that's a 410 00:25:10,280 --> 00:25:12,760 Speaker 1: good analogy for what we have to think about these 411 00:25:12,840 --> 00:25:15,639 Speaker 1: days when we deal with the Internet and cyber reality 412 00:25:15,840 --> 00:25:19,320 Speaker 1: and now artificial intelligence and how you know where you 413 00:25:19,400 --> 00:25:22,479 Speaker 1: draw the line between realities and how much control you have. 414 00:25:22,600 --> 00:25:27,320 Speaker 1: So obviously we start with a matrix. Number two would 415 00:25:27,320 --> 00:25:32,439 Speaker 1: be well, you know what, I hear the uh, I 416 00:25:32,520 --> 00:25:34,199 Speaker 1: hear the music kicking in. I guess we have to 417 00:25:34,200 --> 00:25:36,480 Speaker 1: wait till after the break for me to tell you 418 00:25:36,520 --> 00:25:41,800 Speaker 1: what number two is. But no, number two and number 419 00:25:41,800 --> 00:25:44,160 Speaker 1: three you could watch, like I say, just those three, 420 00:25:44,200 --> 00:25:46,000 Speaker 1: but I'm gonna go a little beyond that as well. 421 00:25:46,040 --> 00:25:47,640 Speaker 1: These are not just I'm not just telling you about 422 00:25:47,640 --> 00:25:51,159 Speaker 1: movies that are like movies that I necessarily like or 423 00:25:51,160 --> 00:25:55,160 Speaker 1: my favorites or whatever, just movies that make a strange 424 00:25:56,000 --> 00:26:03,399 Speaker 1: impact on almost a philosophical metaphysical level. I'm Joshua P. Warren. 425 00:26:04,040 --> 00:26:07,879 Speaker 1: You're listening to Strange Things on the iHeartRadio and Coast 426 00:26:07,880 --> 00:26:11,199 Speaker 1: to Coast AM Paranormal Podcast Network, and I will be 427 00:26:11,359 --> 00:26:14,400 Speaker 1: back after these important messages. 428 00:26:22,640 --> 00:26:26,800 Speaker 3: Don't go anywhere.

I am your host, 445 00:28:02,080 --> 00:28:04,520 Speaker 1: Joshua P. Warren, and this is the show where the 446 00:28:04,640 --> 00:28:12,959 Speaker 1: unusual becomes usual. So movie number one on this list 447 00:28:13,280 --> 00:28:16,920 Speaker 1: of movies that make a strange impact is The Matrix. 448 00:28:18,200 --> 00:28:20,400 Speaker 1: Number two on the list is a movie that came 449 00:28:20,440 --> 00:28:27,560 Speaker 1: out in twenty eleven called The Adjustment Bureau, starring Matt Damon. 450 00:28:27,840 --> 00:28:31,800 Speaker 1: This is actually based on a story by Philip K. Dick, 451 00:28:33,320 --> 00:28:36,520 Speaker 1: and you know, a lot of crazy sci fi movies 452 00:28:36,560 --> 00:28:40,080 Speaker 1: are based upon his work. As a matter of fact, 453 00:28:40,880 --> 00:28:45,480 Speaker 1: I was on a radio program one time and they 454 00:28:45,520 --> 00:28:50,880 Speaker 1: had also as a guest one of Philip K. Dick's wives, 455 00:28:51,360 --> 00:28:54,240 Speaker 1: because he was married, you know, more than once. But 456 00:28:54,680 --> 00:28:56,800 Speaker 1: she was a very nice lady. She knew about me 457 00:28:56,960 --> 00:28:59,080 Speaker 1: and said that she enjoyed my work and all that. 458 00:28:59,160 --> 00:29:03,720 Speaker 1: So I was I was really honored, and I got 459 00:29:03,720 --> 00:29:05,520 Speaker 1: to talk to her off the air, you know, some 460 00:29:05,720 --> 00:29:08,320 Speaker 1: about what it was like to live with the great 461 00:29:08,400 --> 00:29:12,720 Speaker 1: sci fi genius Philip K. Dick. But anyway, this movie, 462 00:29:12,720 --> 00:29:16,720 Speaker 1: The Adjustment Bureau. Okay, here's how I'm going to describe 463 00:29:16,720 --> 00:29:20,640 Speaker 1: this one. Uh So, basically, it's kind of about the 464 00:29:20,680 --> 00:29:28,240 Speaker 1: idea that everybody has a destiny, and that the creepy 465 00:29:28,280 --> 00:29:31,840 Speaker 1: part is that in this movie there are these kind 466 00:29:31,880 --> 00:29:37,400 Speaker 1: of shadowy figures that kind of loom around your life 467 00:29:37,520 --> 00:29:41,959 Speaker 1: and tweak things and adjust things to make sure that 468 00:29:42,000 --> 00:29:45,440 Speaker 1: you fulfill your destiny. And there are times when that 469 00:29:45,440 --> 00:29:48,000 Speaker 1: can be really good. But what if you don't agree 470 00:29:48,000 --> 00:29:49,800 Speaker 1: with what they want you to do? You know, that's 471 00:29:49,880 --> 00:29:54,120 Speaker 1: where it gets tricky, And so almost think of like angels, 472 00:29:54,120 --> 00:29:57,960 Speaker 1: like good angels and dark angels that are secretly kind 473 00:29:57,960 --> 00:30:01,840 Speaker 1: of intervening in your life and trying to nod and 474 00:30:01,880 --> 00:30:04,640 Speaker 1: push you, and I guess nudge and push you in 475 00:30:04,960 --> 00:30:08,920 Speaker 1: certain directions, and it makes you think a lot about 476 00:30:08,960 --> 00:30:11,480 Speaker 1: fate and destiny and free will and the choices that 477 00:30:11,560 --> 00:30:17,480 Speaker 1: you have. The third one is The Truman Show, which 478 00:30:17,520 --> 00:30:21,400 Speaker 1: came out in nineteen ninety eight starring Jim Carrey, and that, 479 00:30:21,560 --> 00:30:27,000 Speaker 1: of course, is about this almost kind of paranoia that 480 00:30:27,040 --> 00:30:30,680 Speaker 1: we sometimes feel that what if, like, let me put 481 00:30:30,720 --> 00:30:33,200 Speaker 1: this away, how do you know that you're not like 482 00:30:33,280 --> 00:30:36,000 Speaker 1: the only one in the world who's not in on 483 00:30:36,040 --> 00:30:43,000 Speaker 1: the joke or are how do you know that everything 484 00:30:43,600 --> 00:30:47,320 Speaker 1: around you is real? Or is let me put it 485 00:30:47,320 --> 00:30:52,080 Speaker 1: this way is really the way it seems? And that 486 00:30:53,680 --> 00:30:56,920 Speaker 1: it's not some kind of a conspiracy where everybody's just 487 00:30:57,400 --> 00:31:00,680 Speaker 1: you know, telling you one version of story and it's 488 00:31:00,720 --> 00:31:03,080 Speaker 1: kind of a false narrative. I mean, think of I 489 00:31:03,120 --> 00:31:06,800 Speaker 1: don't want to spoil like the Tooth Fairy or Santa 490 00:31:06,840 --> 00:31:09,480 Speaker 1: Claus for anybody, but I think you adults know what 491 00:31:09,480 --> 00:31:11,360 Speaker 1: I'm talking about. When you're raised up as a kid 492 00:31:11,400 --> 00:31:13,200 Speaker 1: and they're like, oh, there's this guy, Santa Claus and 493 00:31:13,240 --> 00:31:17,080 Speaker 1: he flies around with reindeer and he comes down your chimney, 494 00:31:17,120 --> 00:31:20,640 Speaker 1: and everybody tells you this, and then you reach a 495 00:31:20,640 --> 00:31:25,120 Speaker 1: certain age where the story begins to change a little bit, 496 00:31:26,560 --> 00:31:28,720 Speaker 1: or you discover that you know, the story is not 497 00:31:28,840 --> 00:31:31,600 Speaker 1: quite the way it was being presented. How far does 498 00:31:31,680 --> 00:31:35,440 Speaker 1: that go in life? To what extent does everybody around 499 00:31:35,560 --> 00:31:38,800 Speaker 1: you know something that you don't know? So again, yeah, 500 00:31:38,880 --> 00:31:41,479 Speaker 1: it's kind of a it's kind of a paranoia. It 501 00:31:41,520 --> 00:31:44,719 Speaker 1: has to do with how much you are able to 502 00:31:44,840 --> 00:31:47,320 Speaker 1: just let down your guard and trust the world and 503 00:31:47,360 --> 00:31:51,120 Speaker 1: go with it. Those three movies right there would be 504 00:31:51,280 --> 00:31:58,760 Speaker 1: enough for a mind boggling, thought provoking, very cerebral impactful 505 00:31:59,120 --> 00:32:02,720 Speaker 1: weekend right there, just The Matrix, The Adjustment Bureau, and 506 00:32:02,760 --> 00:32:07,880 Speaker 1: The Truman Show. But if you're still left wanting more 507 00:32:07,920 --> 00:32:12,720 Speaker 1: at that point, add this fourth win in. It's called 508 00:32:12,960 --> 00:32:16,000 Speaker 1: Being There. A lot of you probably never heard of it. 509 00:32:16,120 --> 00:32:22,080 Speaker 1: Being There from nineteen seventy nine, starring Peter Sellers and 510 00:32:22,520 --> 00:32:26,440 Speaker 1: this is a movie about your mindset and how your 511 00:32:26,560 --> 00:32:31,760 Speaker 1: mindset affects the things that happen around you, and how 512 00:32:31,800 --> 00:32:35,080 Speaker 1: that sometimes if you just let go and relax and 513 00:32:35,160 --> 00:32:40,160 Speaker 1: go with the flow, you get elevated to these insane 514 00:32:40,480 --> 00:32:45,040 Speaker 1: levels of celebrity and abundance and wealth. You know, I 515 00:32:45,080 --> 00:32:46,560 Speaker 1: hate to say it, but how often do you look 516 00:32:46,560 --> 00:32:49,400 Speaker 1: at somebody who's extremely rich and famous and seems to 517 00:32:49,440 --> 00:32:52,960 Speaker 1: have everything, You're like the I don't get it. I 518 00:32:52,960 --> 00:32:55,200 Speaker 1: don't think this person is that talented. I don't think 519 00:32:55,240 --> 00:32:59,680 Speaker 1: this person is this or that. Maybe there's something that 520 00:32:59,720 --> 00:33:02,720 Speaker 1: they they understand about, you know, their approach to life 521 00:33:02,760 --> 00:33:06,960 Speaker 1: that you can learn from, and Being There it really 522 00:33:07,000 --> 00:33:10,880 Speaker 1: helps you to appreciate that mindset. It was one of 523 00:33:11,040 --> 00:33:15,560 Speaker 1: Peter Seller's last performances. And that movie also has a 524 00:33:15,640 --> 00:33:20,160 Speaker 1: very interesting connection to me because it was filmed a 525 00:33:20,240 --> 00:33:22,000 Speaker 1: large in large part, a lot of it was filmed 526 00:33:22,040 --> 00:33:25,080 Speaker 1: at the Biltmore House in Asheville, North Carolina, where I 527 00:33:25,120 --> 00:33:28,120 Speaker 1: grew up, so I see a lot of local connections 528 00:33:28,160 --> 00:33:31,000 Speaker 1: for me when I go down this. So let's let's 529 00:33:31,040 --> 00:33:33,520 Speaker 1: call it a four movie list, all right, The Matrix, 530 00:33:34,600 --> 00:33:36,200 Speaker 1: and you don't have to watch them in this order, 531 00:33:36,200 --> 00:33:38,240 Speaker 1: but I think it would be a good order. The Matrix, 532 00:33:38,600 --> 00:33:43,240 Speaker 1: the Adjustment Bureau, the Truman Show, and being there. Now, 533 00:33:43,520 --> 00:33:46,720 Speaker 1: now that I've said that, I do want to add 534 00:33:46,720 --> 00:33:49,840 Speaker 1: in some other movies here that still are movies that 535 00:33:49,920 --> 00:33:52,520 Speaker 1: kind of make an impact and make you think about things. 536 00:33:52,560 --> 00:33:58,360 Speaker 1: They're not not as metaphysical as the three or four 537 00:33:58,400 --> 00:34:01,800 Speaker 1: that I just gave you, but still they live. From 538 00:34:01,880 --> 00:34:05,280 Speaker 1: nineteen eighty eight with Rowdy Roddy Piper. It's sort of 539 00:34:05,320 --> 00:34:09,520 Speaker 1: a sci fi horror comedy where he gets this pair 540 00:34:09,560 --> 00:34:12,640 Speaker 1: of glasses and every time he puts them on, he 541 00:34:12,800 --> 00:34:16,440 Speaker 1: sees that there are aliens around us disguised as humans, 542 00:34:16,840 --> 00:34:20,399 Speaker 1: and that also there are subliminal messages that can only 543 00:34:20,480 --> 00:34:22,600 Speaker 1: be seen when you've got these glasses on, and he 544 00:34:22,680 --> 00:34:24,960 Speaker 1: starts to realize that he's in the middle of a 545 00:34:24,960 --> 00:34:31,200 Speaker 1: big conspiracy. The movie signs with Mel Gibson from two 546 00:34:31,280 --> 00:34:34,600 Speaker 1: thousand and two. That's definitely one of my favorites because 547 00:34:35,120 --> 00:34:38,440 Speaker 1: that also is a movie about the design of reality 548 00:34:38,480 --> 00:34:41,759 Speaker 1: and whether or not things just happen coincidentally or if 549 00:34:41,800 --> 00:34:45,280 Speaker 1: there is some meaning and some purpose behind how everything 550 00:34:45,360 --> 00:34:49,719 Speaker 1: fits together, that everything has everything happens for a reason, right. 551 00:34:51,040 --> 00:34:55,080 Speaker 1: Another movie that makes an impact. This is another movie 552 00:34:55,080 --> 00:34:58,160 Speaker 1: from director m Night Shimalan, who also directed Signs. It's 553 00:34:58,160 --> 00:35:01,840 Speaker 1: called The Sixth Sense. Surely you've seen The Sixth since 554 00:35:01,880 --> 00:35:07,239 Speaker 1: with Bruce Willis from nineteen ninety nine. It's about the 555 00:35:07,320 --> 00:35:10,440 Speaker 1: kid who can see dead people. I will not spoil 556 00:35:10,480 --> 00:35:14,320 Speaker 1: the end of that for you if you haven't seen it, 557 00:35:14,880 --> 00:35:19,200 Speaker 1: but it's famous for its ending. And then this is 558 00:35:19,280 --> 00:35:21,239 Speaker 1: one that you know. I was talking to Larne and 559 00:35:21,280 --> 00:35:23,319 Speaker 1: we just said, you know what, let's throw it in there. 560 00:35:24,560 --> 00:35:27,520 Speaker 1: It's one of the most It does make an impact, 561 00:35:27,520 --> 00:35:31,680 Speaker 1: but you probably need to be on something two thousand 562 00:35:31,719 --> 00:35:36,120 Speaker 1: and one, A Space Odyssey from nineteen sixty eight, And 563 00:35:36,760 --> 00:35:39,840 Speaker 1: you know what, if I it's one of those movies 564 00:35:39,840 --> 00:35:43,919 Speaker 1: that nobody can really describe. Everybody has a different interpretation. 565 00:35:44,840 --> 00:35:47,400 Speaker 1: And I could tell you who started it, you probably 566 00:35:47,400 --> 00:35:50,319 Speaker 1: wouldn't recognize the names because I think the real star 567 00:35:50,400 --> 00:35:53,560 Speaker 1: of that movie was Stanley Kubrick, the director. This was 568 00:35:53,600 --> 00:35:56,000 Speaker 1: like a glimpse to his mind and the mind of 569 00:35:56,280 --> 00:35:58,320 Speaker 1: I guess it was Arthur C. Clark he was working 570 00:35:58,360 --> 00:36:01,239 Speaker 1: with on this. I don't know, maybe maybe the star 571 00:36:01,400 --> 00:36:11,359 Speaker 1: is hal the artificial intelligence computer nains those For those 572 00:36:11,440 --> 00:36:13,000 Speaker 1: of you who've seen the movie, you know what I'm 573 00:36:13,040 --> 00:36:18,360 Speaker 1: doing there. But yeah, that movie. Yeah, I think I 574 00:36:18,360 --> 00:36:20,440 Speaker 1: think you at least need like a glass of wine 575 00:36:20,520 --> 00:36:22,680 Speaker 1: or something before you watch two thousand and one A 576 00:36:22,719 --> 00:36:26,920 Speaker 1: Space Odyssey. But now that I've said that, I'll just 577 00:36:26,960 --> 00:36:28,719 Speaker 1: I'm just going to toss these out out, you know, 578 00:36:28,719 --> 00:36:30,839 Speaker 1: because hey, you know, it's my podcast. I can tell 579 00:36:31,200 --> 00:36:35,360 Speaker 1: I can talk about movies. I just like I like Superman, 580 00:36:35,480 --> 00:36:38,839 Speaker 1: the movie with Christopher Reeve from nineteen seventy eight. That is, 581 00:36:39,520 --> 00:36:42,200 Speaker 1: it's one of my all time favorites. And in fact, 582 00:36:43,000 --> 00:36:46,879 Speaker 1: interestingly enough, I have, you know, a collection of all 583 00:36:46,960 --> 00:36:51,800 Speaker 1: kinds of strange things that I keep at my house 584 00:36:51,960 --> 00:36:54,440 Speaker 1: that are near and dear to me, and one of 585 00:36:54,480 --> 00:36:59,359 Speaker 1: them that I recently obtained is a life mask of 586 00:36:59,600 --> 00:37:02,960 Speaker 1: christ for Reeve. I have a little section that's like 587 00:37:03,040 --> 00:37:07,040 Speaker 1: a Superman section where I have actual screen used kryptonite 588 00:37:07,080 --> 00:37:09,280 Speaker 1: from the movies and you know, all that kind of stuff. 589 00:37:09,280 --> 00:37:14,319 Speaker 1: And I've got now this this life mask of Christopher 590 00:37:14,560 --> 00:37:17,600 Speaker 1: Reeve there. It's amazing. You know, it's like when they 591 00:37:17,760 --> 00:37:20,919 Speaker 1: cast his face before they were gonna use it for 592 00:37:20,960 --> 00:37:27,240 Speaker 1: a an effect in a movie. Star Wars uh nineteen 593 00:37:27,320 --> 00:37:31,920 Speaker 1: seventy seven. The first three Star Wars movies, as far 594 00:37:31,960 --> 00:37:34,520 Speaker 1: as I'm concerned, are the only real Star Wars movies. 595 00:37:35,120 --> 00:37:37,600 Speaker 1: But you know that made such an impact on me 596 00:37:37,719 --> 00:37:40,320 Speaker 1: that I wrote Use the Force, a Jedi's Guide to 597 00:37:40,360 --> 00:37:44,400 Speaker 1: the Law of Attraction, And that's what's most important to 598 00:37:44,440 --> 00:37:46,799 Speaker 1: me about Star Wars. I think Star Wars is all 599 00:37:46,840 --> 00:37:50,759 Speaker 1: about the Force, and I described why in my book, 600 00:37:50,800 --> 00:37:53,040 Speaker 1: and you can read that for free if you go 601 00:37:53,080 --> 00:37:57,000 Speaker 1: to Joshua Pee Warren dot com and you'll see somewhere 602 00:37:57,000 --> 00:37:58,600 Speaker 1: on the web page. You might have to go to 603 00:37:58,600 --> 00:38:00,840 Speaker 1: the Curiosity Shop. Somewhere you'll see the cover of that 604 00:38:00,920 --> 00:38:03,160 Speaker 1: book Use the Force, and you click it and you 605 00:38:03,200 --> 00:38:07,600 Speaker 1: can download a PDF of it in I think at 606 00:38:07,680 --> 00:38:13,640 Speaker 1: least English and Spanish, maybe some other languages. But my 607 00:38:14,080 --> 00:38:22,920 Speaker 1: ultimate favorite movie, can you guess, It's Raiders of a 608 00:38:23,000 --> 00:38:27,240 Speaker 1: Lost Ark, the first Indiana Jones movie, of course, starring 609 00:38:27,280 --> 00:38:31,680 Speaker 1: Harrison Ford nineteen eighty one. That to me is the 610 00:38:31,719 --> 00:38:35,799 Speaker 1: perfect movie. It's got all the elements in it. It captures, 611 00:38:37,040 --> 00:38:43,480 Speaker 1: you know, this journey of investigating the paranormal and exploring 612 00:38:43,640 --> 00:38:50,560 Speaker 1: things with this adventurous attitude. It's just got everything you 613 00:38:50,600 --> 00:38:52,520 Speaker 1: want in a good movie. And you know, there are 614 00:38:52,600 --> 00:38:56,719 Speaker 1: so many other great movies. It's it's really frustrating to 615 00:38:56,760 --> 00:38:59,440 Speaker 1: even try to get into a Forrest Gump, the Shawshank 616 00:38:59,480 --> 00:39:06,800 Speaker 1: re diption and Immortal Beloved ed Wood, Unforgiven, Close Encounters 617 00:39:06,800 --> 00:39:14,880 Speaker 1: of the Third Kind, Jurassic Park, Jaws, Peewee's Big Adventure, Ghostbusters, 618 00:39:14,920 --> 00:39:19,920 Speaker 1: the James Bond movies, and then there's some super bizarro stuff, 619 00:39:20,400 --> 00:39:24,640 Speaker 1: you know, like Gumo. It's truly overwhelming when you just 620 00:39:24,640 --> 00:39:28,920 Speaker 1: think about good or interesting at outstanding movies. You know, 621 00:39:28,960 --> 00:39:30,759 Speaker 1: I could go on and on, but I got more 622 00:39:30,800 --> 00:39:33,040 Speaker 1: to tell you when we come back. I'm Joshua P.

I mean, if 659 00:42:47,880 --> 00:42:50,560 Speaker 1: I so, I'm just letting you, I'm just letting you 660 00:42:50,640 --> 00:42:55,799 Speaker 1: know some things that I think you might like that 661 00:42:55,880 --> 00:42:59,600 Speaker 1: will make an impact since you listen to this podcast. 662 00:42:59,600 --> 00:43:02,200 Speaker 1: But there's no need to send me away. Well, because 663 00:43:02,239 --> 00:43:04,360 Speaker 1: everybody's got a favorite movie, and if everybody emails me 664 00:43:04,400 --> 00:43:07,840 Speaker 1: their favorite movie, then you know it's gonna blow me 665 00:43:07,960 --> 00:43:13,560 Speaker 1: up here. I will say this though. Just last night, 666 00:43:14,360 --> 00:43:19,359 Speaker 1: Lauren and I watched a movie that was actually much 667 00:43:19,360 --> 00:43:22,160 Speaker 1: better than I was expecting because the reviews are not 668 00:43:22,239 --> 00:43:27,560 Speaker 1: that great. Whenever I have a project that requires the 669 00:43:27,600 --> 00:43:31,840 Speaker 1: best artist that I know of, I hire mister Sam Sharon. 670 00:43:32,640 --> 00:43:36,400 Speaker 1: He has done a book cover for me poster, lots 671 00:43:36,440 --> 00:43:41,080 Speaker 1: of logos. He did my coffee labels, he does Sam Sharon, 672 00:43:41,200 --> 00:43:44,880 Speaker 1: He's I think he's the best of the best. And 673 00:43:45,440 --> 00:43:48,279 Speaker 1: he started talking months ago about how that he had 674 00:43:48,320 --> 00:43:53,360 Speaker 1: been hired by a big movie studio to do a 675 00:43:53,400 --> 00:43:58,960 Speaker 1: poster for an upcoming film starring a Simon Pegg Minnie 676 00:43:59,000 --> 00:44:04,960 Speaker 1: driver Christopher Lloyd. And the movie is called Nandor Fodor 677 00:44:05,160 --> 00:44:09,280 Speaker 1: and the Talking Mongoose. Have you heard about this? Yeah, 678 00:44:09,719 --> 00:44:16,080 Speaker 1: Nandor Fodor. He was a real parapsychologist and I'm not 679 00:44:16,120 --> 00:44:19,800 Speaker 1: sure when he lived. He was a contemporary of Harry 680 00:44:19,840 --> 00:44:24,879 Speaker 1: Price and those. Harry Price has always been a very 681 00:44:24,880 --> 00:44:27,080 Speaker 1: interesting figure. I think he was kind of the original 682 00:44:27,440 --> 00:44:30,640 Speaker 1: ghost hunter. And so if you don't know who Harry 683 00:44:30,640 --> 00:44:33,000 Speaker 1: Price was and you're interested in ghost hunting, you know, 684 00:44:33,840 --> 00:44:37,560 Speaker 1: go go back and learn about Harry Price. But anyway, 685 00:44:38,000 --> 00:44:43,799 Speaker 1: I talked about this thing, the Talking Mongoose, because not 686 00:44:43,880 --> 00:44:46,160 Speaker 1: Nandor Fodor. He really did go out and do this 687 00:44:46,239 --> 00:44:50,080 Speaker 1: investigation of the talking mongoose back in the nineteen thirties, 688 00:44:50,120 --> 00:44:53,759 Speaker 1: I guess. And so they made this movie that's it's 689 00:44:53,840 --> 00:44:57,000 Speaker 1: loosely based around it, but it's not that loosely based. 690 00:44:57,040 --> 00:44:58,759 Speaker 1: It seems like it might be kind of accurate in 691 00:44:58,760 --> 00:45:01,480 Speaker 1: a lot of ways. But if you don't know what 692 00:45:01,480 --> 00:45:06,279 Speaker 1: the Talking Mongoose is, listen to episode twenty seven of 693 00:45:06,320 --> 00:45:09,600 Speaker 1: this podcast Strange Things. That episode is called the Talking 694 00:45:09,800 --> 00:45:17,160 Speaker 1: Mongoose and Amazing Animals, and so you'll learn more about 695 00:45:17,200 --> 00:45:22,120 Speaker 1: what that is, what that means, and therefore you if 696 00:45:22,160 --> 00:45:24,279 Speaker 1: you watch this movie, you'll appreciate it more. But warn 697 00:45:24,320 --> 00:45:26,560 Speaker 1: and I really enjoyed this movie Nandor Fodor and the 698 00:45:26,600 --> 00:45:30,000 Speaker 1: Talking Mongoose. I bought it on Amazon Prime for like 699 00:45:30,239 --> 00:45:33,719 Speaker 1: six dollars in ninety nine cents, and yeah, I would 700 00:45:33,760 --> 00:45:38,160 Speaker 1: watch it again. Very very very interesting and actually kind 701 00:45:38,160 --> 00:45:40,960 Speaker 1: of a funny movie in a lot of ways. I 702 00:45:41,000 --> 00:45:45,640 Speaker 1: want to mention real quick here my goodness, I always 703 00:45:45,680 --> 00:45:49,960 Speaker 1: have so many notes and so little time. I have 704 00:45:50,800 --> 00:45:54,440 Speaker 1: this collection of interesting objects at my house, and so 705 00:45:54,600 --> 00:45:58,759 Speaker 1: one thing that I plan to do pretty soon is 706 00:45:58,960 --> 00:46:03,360 Speaker 1: take I have a five K video camera, excuse me, 707 00:46:03,400 --> 00:46:05,840 Speaker 1: and I'm going to go down and I'm going to 708 00:46:07,120 --> 00:46:10,480 Speaker 1: videotape some of my collection in my house and upload 709 00:46:10,520 --> 00:46:14,840 Speaker 1: it to YouTube for free. And so therefore I would 710 00:46:14,960 --> 00:46:17,400 Speaker 1: like for you to make sure you subscribe to my 711 00:46:17,520 --> 00:46:20,920 Speaker 1: YouTube channel. Just go to YouTube.

I think I'm going to start 716 00:46:34,040 --> 00:46:39,160 Speaker 1: making more YouTube videos just because it's kind of fun. 717 00:46:39,800 --> 00:46:44,520 Speaker 1: And I actually I made a little video the other 718 00:46:44,600 --> 00:46:46,920 Speaker 1: day that I haven't edited yet, has nothing to do 719 00:46:46,960 --> 00:46:49,200 Speaker 1: with paranormal or strange stuff, but I figured i'd share 720 00:46:49,239 --> 00:46:54,400 Speaker 1: this with you. I like watching these YouTube videos that 721 00:46:54,560 --> 00:46:58,879 Speaker 1: are food challenges. I don't know why. I guess it's 722 00:46:58,920 --> 00:47:03,319 Speaker 1: just because I'm truly astounded when I see some of 723 00:47:03,360 --> 00:47:06,520 Speaker 1: these little, skinny guys and ladies sit down and just 724 00:47:06,600 --> 00:47:11,400 Speaker 1: like eat these unbelievable mountains of food in twenty thirty 725 00:47:11,440 --> 00:47:15,880 Speaker 1: minutes an hour, I mean, whatever it is. And I 726 00:47:15,880 --> 00:47:18,880 Speaker 1: guess I kinda I don't really envy them because it 727 00:47:18,920 --> 00:47:21,800 Speaker 1: doesn't look like it's a pleasant thing. But it also 728 00:47:22,800 --> 00:47:25,440 Speaker 1: makes you think, well, if you can eat like that, 729 00:47:25,560 --> 00:47:29,800 Speaker 1: then you also can just go out and eat whatever 730 00:47:29,840 --> 00:47:31,640 Speaker 1: you want like a normal person. You know, have a 731 00:47:31,680 --> 00:47:33,680 Speaker 1: big mac and fries whenever you want to, and you're 732 00:47:33,719 --> 00:47:37,320 Speaker 1: gonna be a okay, so, but I like doing that stuff. 733 00:47:37,719 --> 00:47:43,360 Speaker 1: And recently I was I was eating some French fries 734 00:47:43,920 --> 00:47:46,839 Speaker 1: and I was dipping them in Hinz Ketchup, and I 735 00:47:46,880 --> 00:47:49,960 Speaker 1: was thinking to myself, you know, I'm not sure if 736 00:47:50,000 --> 00:47:53,319 Speaker 1: my taste buds have changed or what, but I'm not 737 00:47:53,480 --> 00:47:57,920 Speaker 1: really digging this flavor I'm getting right here. And so 738 00:47:58,000 --> 00:48:02,279 Speaker 1: I decided to do a blind taste test and I 739 00:48:02,320 --> 00:48:04,920 Speaker 1: went out of my way. Whenever I'm going to do 740 00:48:04,960 --> 00:48:07,160 Speaker 1: something like this, I went out of my way and 741 00:48:07,200 --> 00:48:11,719 Speaker 1: I got six different ketchups. Okay, I got the Hinds, 742 00:48:12,080 --> 00:48:20,680 Speaker 1: I got Hunts, I got frenches, I got the ketchup 743 00:48:20,719 --> 00:48:24,880 Speaker 1: that Amazon makes, and I got the ketchup that Walmart makes. 744 00:48:25,160 --> 00:48:27,760 Speaker 1: I figured six was plenty. Wait, now that's only five. 745 00:48:28,239 --> 00:48:31,839 Speaker 1: I'm missing one. Oh yeah, and the ketchup that Whole 746 00:48:31,880 --> 00:48:36,640 Speaker 1: Foods mix. And so I videotaped this thing and it 747 00:48:36,680 --> 00:48:41,560 Speaker 1: was very as it was as clinically and scientifically done 748 00:48:41,600 --> 00:48:44,439 Speaker 1: as I could do it in my kitchen. I left 749 00:48:44,440 --> 00:48:48,880 Speaker 1: the room. We had six plates. Laren labeled the bottom 750 00:48:48,920 --> 00:48:53,080 Speaker 1: of each plate and then she put the blob of 751 00:48:53,160 --> 00:48:56,359 Speaker 1: ketchup on each one, mixed it all up three card 752 00:48:56,440 --> 00:48:59,560 Speaker 1: Monty style then I came back into the room. Nobody 753 00:48:59,560 --> 00:49:02,359 Speaker 1: knows which ketchup is which. At this point, I had 754 00:49:02,360 --> 00:49:05,560 Speaker 1: a glass of water there to clean my palate, I 755 00:49:05,640 --> 00:49:10,319 Speaker 1: had a I had a spoon there to taste the 756 00:49:10,360 --> 00:49:12,840 Speaker 1: ketchup by itself. But then I also had some fresh 757 00:49:13,360 --> 00:49:16,000 Speaker 1: French fries there from one of my favorite restaurants, so 758 00:49:16,040 --> 00:49:18,480 Speaker 1: I could also taste them on French fries. So I 759 00:49:18,520 --> 00:49:20,440 Speaker 1: took my time and I went through this whole process, 760 00:49:20,960 --> 00:49:23,560 Speaker 1: and when I was done, time for the big reveal, 761 00:49:23,600 --> 00:49:25,880 Speaker 1: I flipped it over. The one that I picked is 762 00:49:25,920 --> 00:49:31,960 Speaker 1: my favorite, was Frenches ketchup. So then we had all 763 00:49:31,960 --> 00:49:33,919 Speaker 1: this stuff laid out and so he said, well, hey, 764 00:49:34,120 --> 00:49:38,120 Speaker 1: let's do this over for Lauren. So she left the room. 765 00:49:38,120 --> 00:49:40,879 Speaker 1: I started with whole new fresh plates and everything put 766 00:49:40,880 --> 00:49:43,839 Speaker 1: it all together. Here's what you have to understand about 767 00:49:43,880 --> 00:49:47,160 Speaker 1: Lauren and myself. We've been together now, you know, like 768 00:49:47,200 --> 00:49:53,000 Speaker 1: twenty five years or so, and we do we have 769 00:49:53,280 --> 00:49:55,719 Speaker 1: a lot in common. It's not true that opposites a 770 00:49:55,800 --> 00:49:58,920 Speaker 1: track when it comes to relationships, but we have some 771 00:49:59,000 --> 00:50:03,200 Speaker 1: pretty different when it comes to food. She likes a 772 00:50:03,239 --> 00:50:05,239 Speaker 1: lot of things that I don't like and vice versa. 773 00:50:05,400 --> 00:50:07,359 Speaker 1: And as a matter of fact, sometimes she looks at 774 00:50:07,360 --> 00:50:09,719 Speaker 1: what I prepare and she says it's like something a 775 00:50:09,760 --> 00:50:15,320 Speaker 1: madman and an asylum would eat. But nonetheless I thought, 776 00:50:15,360 --> 00:50:18,399 Speaker 1: I wonder, I mean, I wonder what she's gonna pick here. 777 00:50:18,440 --> 00:50:20,480 Speaker 1: There's no way I could predict I had I was 778 00:50:21,280 --> 00:50:24,800 Speaker 1: kind of surprised that I picked Frenches did the same 779 00:50:24,840 --> 00:50:32,400 Speaker 1: thing for Lauren. Lauren picked Frenches ketchup. Also, can you 780 00:50:32,440 --> 00:50:36,399 Speaker 1: believe that I thought, what are the chances of that 781 00:50:38,200 --> 00:50:40,640 Speaker 1: our taste are not that similar? And I'm not being 782 00:50:40,719 --> 00:50:43,320 Speaker 1: paid to say that I should be At this point, 783 00:50:43,440 --> 00:50:47,120 Speaker 1: I think Frenches need to come sponsor this podcast after 784 00:50:47,480 --> 00:50:51,920 Speaker 1: me saying that. But that's the truth. So I filmed 785 00:50:51,920 --> 00:50:54,920 Speaker 1: that little thing, and I don't know. At some point, 786 00:50:55,440 --> 00:50:57,359 Speaker 1: it's not like I don't have enough to do here, 787 00:50:58,120 --> 00:51:03,040 Speaker 1: but I'll probably upload that, and I have some other 788 00:51:03,280 --> 00:51:06,600 Speaker 1: interesting things that I would like to upload just for fun. 789 00:51:07,360 --> 00:51:10,960 Speaker 1: And also I'm probably going to be I think some 790 00:51:11,000 --> 00:51:14,279 Speaker 1: of my collection of weird stuff and interesting stuff and 791 00:51:14,360 --> 00:51:17,319 Speaker 1: movie props and all that. It's probably going to be 792 00:51:17,360 --> 00:51:21,120 Speaker 1: like on a rotating schedule where I move certain things 793 00:51:21,280 --> 00:51:26,759 Speaker 1: out into storage while I display certain things.
