1
00:00:00,160 --> 00:00:02,360
Speaker 1: Hey, this is Sam, this is John, and we are

Speaker 2: And we have some foundational stories coming up for you.

4
00:00:08,480 --> 00:00:11,320
Speaker 1: But the thing is, this foundation needs a little support

5
00:00:11,480 --> 00:00:14,640
Speaker 1: from these sponsors. So stick around two minutes and we'll

6
00:00:14,640 --> 00:00:15,800
Speaker 1: get into the episode.

7
00:00:16,360 --> 00:00:18,919
Speaker 3: I live below a cult leader and I fear I've

8
00:00:18,920 --> 00:00:19,520
Speaker 3: angered her.

9
00:00:20,040 --> 00:00:22,160
Speaker 2: That's definitely a scary situation.

10
00:00:22,760 --> 00:00:25,720
Speaker 3: I female, twenty eight, have lived in the same apartment

11
00:00:25,840 --> 00:00:29,160
Speaker 3: for four years. My neighbors in the unit above me

12
00:00:29,280 --> 00:00:31,640
Speaker 3: are a couple in their thirties who have lived there

13
00:00:31,640 --> 00:00:34,879
Speaker 3: for about three years with no issues between us. By

14
00:00:34,920 --> 00:00:37,120

17
00:00:40,920 --> 00:00:44,040
Speaker 2: I'm Sophia, I'm Dakota, and I'm Keon.

18
00:00:44,040 --> 00:00:48,000
Speaker 3: And Op says. During the past six months, I've noticed

19
00:00:48,000 --> 00:00:51,360
Speaker 3: some changes in their behaviors. At first, it was just

20
00:00:51,400 --> 00:00:54,080
Speaker 3: a few days per week, I'd hear music with heavy

21
00:00:54,120 --> 00:00:58,120
Speaker 3: bass accompanied by rhythmic jumping. I assume they bought an

22
00:00:58,160 --> 00:01:01,480
Speaker 3: exercise bike or something. But some times the jumping gets

23
00:01:01,520 --> 00:01:06,400
Speaker 3: so intense that it shakes my overhead like fixtures. The

24
00:01:06,520 --> 00:01:09,000
Speaker 3: jumping routine has been escalating to the point that it

25
00:01:09,040 --> 00:01:13,119
Speaker 3: takes place every day, normally between eight am and ten am.

26
00:01:13,440 --> 00:01:16,080
Speaker 3: Maybe they just have a really intense workout routine.

27
00:01:16,240 --> 00:01:19,120
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's it's their jump centric workout routine.

28
00:01:19,160 --> 00:01:21,440
Speaker 3: Maybe it's all about the jumps, and you just didn't

29
00:01:21,480 --> 00:01:24,640
Speaker 3: realize how much you really need to focus on your

30
00:01:24,640 --> 00:01:27,200
Speaker 3: ability to jump as you grow older, because you lose

31
00:01:27,240 --> 00:01:27,760
Speaker 3: that mobility.

32
00:01:27,840 --> 00:01:30,479
Speaker 2: Yeah, apparently jumping is actually healthy for you, I heard.

33
00:01:30,680 --> 00:01:33,240
Speaker 3: I also noticed that they called one eight hundred junk

34
00:01:33,280 --> 00:01:35,960
Speaker 3: and got rid of a lot of nice possessions. However,

35
00:01:36,040 --> 00:01:38,640
Speaker 3: I figured none of this was my business, so I

36
00:01:38,760 --> 00:01:42,600
Speaker 3: kept my observations to myself. About three weeks ago, everything

37
00:01:42,840 --> 00:01:47,319
Speaker 3: escalated multiple times per week on weekdays and during working hours.

38
00:01:47,400 --> 00:01:50,320
Speaker 3: It sounded like they were hosting a mini Burning Man

39
00:01:50,360 --> 00:01:53,160
Speaker 3: event in their apartment. The music was so loud and

40
00:01:53,240 --> 00:01:55,360
Speaker 3: clear that it sounded as if I was at the

41
00:01:55,400 --> 00:01:58,240
Speaker 3: concert while sitting in my living room. There's clearly a

42
00:01:58,240 --> 00:02:02,400
Speaker 3: lot of people involved because the jump stomping shakes multiple

43
00:02:02,480 --> 00:02:05,400
Speaker 3: light fixtures and cabinets. The music is a mix of

44
00:02:05,440 --> 00:02:09,200
Speaker 3: New Age spiritual vibe, dance beats, and a male voiceover

45
00:02:09,280 --> 00:02:15,520
Speaker 3: giving weird instructions like rebrand yourself, surrender yourself, stomp stomp

46
00:02:15,639 --> 00:02:20,519
Speaker 3: in response, oh, they're just toasting a zoomba class. I've

47
00:02:20,560 --> 00:02:23,560
Speaker 3: taken audio recordings on my phone and one video from

48
00:02:23,600 --> 00:02:26,960
Speaker 3: the hallway during these events. I still didn't complain to

49
00:02:27,000 --> 00:02:29,560
Speaker 3: the building, but I wanted evidence in case it became

50
00:02:29,639 --> 00:02:33,600
Speaker 3: a regular thing. This week, I've encountered a big problem.

51
00:02:33,760 --> 00:02:36,760
Speaker 3: The couple above me has a private patio which is

52
00:02:36,919 --> 00:02:39,799
Speaker 3: directly above my bedroom. I came home from a three

53
00:02:39,880 --> 00:02:42,920
Speaker 3: day trip out of town yesterday and my ceiling is

54
00:02:43,160 --> 00:02:47,839
Speaker 3: legitimately collapsing. In one corner. Big chunks of plaster had

55
00:02:47,880 --> 00:02:50,320
Speaker 3: fallen to the ground, and I saw a little water.

56
00:02:50,800 --> 00:02:53,240
Speaker 3: Uh oh, and now we got to get the landlord.

57
00:02:52,840 --> 00:02:55,600
Speaker 2: In jumping so hard they are breaking the building.

58
00:02:55,880 --> 00:02:59,080
Speaker 3: I immediately called my superintendent, since I didn't want to

59
00:02:59,080 --> 00:03:02,240
Speaker 3: be very alive by a ceiling rubble if it gives out.

60
00:03:02,560 --> 00:03:04,799
Speaker 3: When he came to check it out, he was shocked

61
00:03:05,240 --> 00:03:08,480
Speaker 3: and pissed. He said that the woman in the couple

62
00:03:08,520 --> 00:03:13,120
Speaker 3: appears to be working with some people doing workshops or something.

63
00:03:13,480 --> 00:03:16,160
Speaker 3: He can see their patio from his apartment window and

64
00:03:16,200 --> 00:03:21,320
Speaker 3: has watched the group do these dancing, jumping, dirt rituals

65
00:03:22,040 --> 00:03:23,840
Speaker 3: out there on a weekly basis.

66
00:03:24,080 --> 00:03:24,880
Speaker 2: Dirt ritual.

67
00:03:24,919 --> 00:03:27,600
Speaker 3: What's a dirt ritual? You peak Dakota's interest?

68
00:03:28,000 --> 00:03:28,959
Speaker 2: Dirt ritual?

69
00:03:29,200 --> 00:03:29,959
Speaker 3: What does that mean?

70
00:03:30,040 --> 00:03:33,560
Speaker 2: Are they eating all your dirt, Sophia, my dirt? Are

71
00:03:33,560 --> 00:03:34,840
Speaker 2: they making mud pies?

72
00:03:35,040 --> 00:03:35,200
Speaker 4: Like?

73
00:03:35,520 --> 00:03:38,640
Speaker 3: Who's to say? He said, they all dance and jump

74
00:03:38,680 --> 00:03:42,800
Speaker 3: to the music and then spread dirt along with something else.

75
00:03:43,120 --> 00:03:46,240
Speaker 3: He doesn't know what it is. He's like, I don't know.

76
00:03:46,800 --> 00:03:50,880
Speaker 3: It just looks like red and it's kind of dark

77
00:03:51,520 --> 00:03:55,320
Speaker 3: and it smells like iron. But I don't know what

78
00:03:55,480 --> 00:03:58,480
Speaker 3: it could be. I'm sure it's nothing, and he was

79
00:03:58,520 --> 00:04:01,640
Speaker 3: never heard from again. Across the patio on a weekly basis.

80
00:04:01,840 --> 00:04:05,480
Speaker 3: He believes that the dirt and unknown substance combo is

81
00:04:05,520 --> 00:04:09,560
Speaker 3: getting through the wooden cracks, absorbing water and weighing down

82
00:04:09,600 --> 00:04:11,320
Speaker 3: my ceiling. This is scary.

83
00:04:11,560 --> 00:04:14,080
Speaker 5: They are the cult of the worm, cult of the work,

84
00:04:14,200 --> 00:04:15,600
Speaker 5: cult of the worm.

85
00:04:15,960 --> 00:04:18,080
Speaker 3: In order to fix the problem, I super said he

86
00:04:18,120 --> 00:04:20,880
Speaker 3: had to go talk to the woman, check out their patio,

87
00:04:21,160 --> 00:04:25,039
Speaker 3: and ultimately hire a contractor to pull up the wood

88
00:04:25,440 --> 00:04:29,520
Speaker 3: to scrape out whatever the heck is causing my ceiling

89
00:04:29,600 --> 00:04:32,120
Speaker 3: to fall. I could hear them talking from my room,

90
00:04:32,160 --> 00:04:34,520
Speaker 3: and the woman sounded distraught and defensive.

91
00:04:34,839 --> 00:04:35,680
Speaker 1: Not my dirt.

92
00:04:35,880 --> 00:04:38,960
Speaker 3: You can't take my dirt, my rituals. I won't be

93
00:04:39,000 --> 00:04:40,040
Speaker 3: able to form them.

94
00:04:40,200 --> 00:04:44,560
Speaker 2: My bad dirt, my bags, it's of great importance.

95
00:04:44,640 --> 00:04:46,960
Speaker 3: She's just like casting spells of this guy. She's like,

96
00:04:47,200 --> 00:04:49,599
Speaker 3: you're rue the day when you tried to take my

97
00:04:49,800 --> 00:04:52,880
Speaker 3: dirt rituals. Jah And he's like, oh, you just got

98
00:04:52,960 --> 00:04:54,520
Speaker 3: dirt over my nice shirt.

99
00:04:55,080 --> 00:04:58,240
Speaker 2: Lightning Bolt dirt cultist, the most dangerous of all.

100
00:04:59,040 --> 00:05:00,840
Speaker 3: Never messed with a dirt couldest.

101
00:05:00,920 --> 00:05:03,400
Speaker 2: Oh, he who controls the dirt, controls all.

102
00:05:03,560 --> 00:05:06,960
Speaker 3: From dust to dust, from dirt to dirt. When my

103
00:05:07,080 --> 00:05:09,880
Speaker 3: super left, he called me and warned me that she

104
00:05:10,040 --> 00:05:12,920
Speaker 3: might try to come down to my apartment and demand

105
00:05:13,000 --> 00:05:15,279
Speaker 3: to see the damage, but don't let her in. This

106
00:05:15,480 --> 00:05:18,280
Speaker 3: was a little concerning to me. Is she a threat?

107
00:05:18,720 --> 00:05:21,159
Speaker 3: The damage is real. I wouldn't mind showing her. She

108
00:05:21,240 --> 00:05:24,599
Speaker 3: started playing her music again, relatively loud, kind of like

109
00:05:24,640 --> 00:05:27,480
Speaker 3: a warning shot. And if you're new here, there are

110
00:05:27,600 --> 00:05:29,679
Speaker 3: multiple parts to the story, so make sure to follow

111
00:05:29,760 --> 00:05:33,359
Speaker 3: us on the iHeartRadio app or Apple podcasts. Okay, let's

112
00:05:33,360 --> 00:05:36,000
Speaker 3: get back into the story I mentioned the music, jumping

113
00:05:36,080 --> 00:05:39,039
Speaker 3: to the super and said I had audio recordings. He

114
00:05:39,120 --> 00:05:42,200
Speaker 3: started begging me to send the evidence to the front office.

115
00:05:42,640 --> 00:05:47,520
Speaker 3: It sounds like he wants them evicted. I said, okay, sure.

116
00:05:48,040 --> 00:05:49,760
Speaker 3: I hate to be a rat, but if I have

117
00:05:49,839 --> 00:05:53,000
Speaker 3: to choose sides, I'll side with the building that dictates

118
00:05:53,000 --> 00:05:56,039
Speaker 3: my annual rent price. He called me twice more that

119
00:05:56,080 --> 00:05:59,640
Speaker 3: afternoon to confirm that I shared my evidence, and I said, yes, oh,

120
00:05:59,680 --> 00:06:03,039
Speaker 3: pe so chill. She's like, I don't want to be

121
00:06:03,080 --> 00:06:06,560
Speaker 3: a snitch. Yeah, my ceilings collapsing, But like, who am

122
00:06:06,560 --> 00:06:07,400
Speaker 3: I to judge?

123
00:06:07,480 --> 00:06:10,120
Speaker 2: They got weird dirt beliefs. Hey, who am I?

124
00:06:10,520 --> 00:06:12,039
Speaker 3: We all got weird things.

125
00:06:12,560 --> 00:06:14,640
Speaker 2: We are all part of the dirt. Oh no, I'm

126
00:06:14,720 --> 00:06:15,440
Speaker 2: joining the cult.

127
00:06:16,040 --> 00:06:17,839
Speaker 3: Shoot Dakota.

128
00:06:17,920 --> 00:06:21,800
Speaker 2: I didn't mean to. It's it's dirt coda, now dirt coda.

129
00:06:22,000 --> 00:06:25,159
Speaker 3: Shortly after everything went down, I left my apartment to

130
00:06:25,240 --> 00:06:29,400
Speaker 3: run an errand then the woman was outside, just standing

131
00:06:29,440 --> 00:06:32,039
Speaker 3: on the sidewalk and stared at me the whole time

132
00:06:32,080 --> 00:06:33,120
Speaker 3: as I walked by.

133
00:06:33,000 --> 00:06:35,279
Speaker 2: She's like her eyes were fixed upon me.

134
00:06:36,000 --> 00:06:38,240
Speaker 3: I ignored her. This isn't my fault.

135
00:06:38,680 --> 00:06:39,440
Speaker 2: No one thought it was.

136
00:06:39,520 --> 00:06:39,760
Speaker 3: OK.

137
00:06:40,080 --> 00:06:42,200
Speaker 2: No, they do they do you're part of the cult.

138
00:06:42,240 --> 00:06:45,200
Speaker 2: Now you're part of the cult. Watch out and the

139
00:06:45,240 --> 00:06:48,760
Speaker 2: dirty non dirt believers beneath us. We'll brew the.

140
00:06:48,800 --> 00:06:53,320
Speaker 3: Day you clean, people will rue the day you missed

141
00:06:53,360 --> 00:06:55,000
Speaker 3: with the dirty dirt cultus.

142
00:06:55,240 --> 00:06:57,920
Speaker 2: What is their dirt cult goal? I wonder do they

143
00:06:58,000 --> 00:06:59,240
Speaker 2: like want like compost.

144
00:06:59,360 --> 00:07:01,440
Speaker 5: They're all like this second level of this building, so

145
00:07:01,480 --> 00:07:03,000
Speaker 5: it's like, wh are they trying to like make it

146
00:07:03,000 --> 00:07:05,600
Speaker 5: so that like dirt rises, all of the dirt in

147
00:07:05,640 --> 00:07:06,920
Speaker 5: the world rises.

148
00:07:06,640 --> 00:07:09,320
Speaker 2: Up to where they are. Okay, nailed it, she knows

149
00:07:09,320 --> 00:07:09,760
Speaker 2: it now.

150
00:07:09,800 --> 00:07:13,080
Speaker 3: Today I went to run another quick errand in the neighborhood.

151
00:07:13,080 --> 00:07:16,480
Speaker 3: When I returned, the couple was again standing on the sidewalk,

152
00:07:16,560 --> 00:07:19,720
Speaker 3: both of them this time, this is getting a little scary.

153
00:07:19,920 --> 00:07:22,640
Speaker 3: Followed me into the building and then waited until I

154
00:07:22,720 --> 00:07:25,520
Speaker 3: was opening my apartment door to confront me. They were

155
00:07:25,560 --> 00:07:29,360
Speaker 3: both wearing creepy fake smiles. The woman had horse girl

156
00:07:29,360 --> 00:07:32,160
Speaker 3: hair down to her waist and started interrogating me.

157
00:07:32,400 --> 00:07:35,680
Speaker 2: Is I'm sorry, it's just a long hair of long hair,

158
00:07:35,880 --> 00:07:37,880
Speaker 2: long horse girl hair?

159
00:07:38,240 --> 00:07:43,200
Speaker 4: They asked, is your ceiling really collapsing? When did it start?

160
00:07:43,440 --> 00:07:46,520
Speaker 4: Do you think it was related to the recent rainfall?

161
00:07:46,880 --> 00:07:49,600
Speaker 4: Because our patio is just fine.

162
00:07:49,720 --> 00:07:52,720
Speaker 3: I was a little uncomfortable. Were they waiting for me outside?

163
00:07:52,880 --> 00:07:55,440
Speaker 3: How did they know I even left the building? Why

164
00:07:55,480 --> 00:07:58,720
Speaker 3: were they both standing there? I've literally never seen them

165
00:07:58,880 --> 00:08:01,920
Speaker 3: enter together in their three years of living here. But

166
00:08:02,120 --> 00:08:04,520
Speaker 3: I have nothing to hide, so I confirm the damage

167
00:08:04,680 --> 00:08:07,040
Speaker 3: is pretty bad. I just don't want it to fall

168
00:08:07,160 --> 00:08:10,240
Speaker 3: during the winter. I'm sorry for the inconvenience, but hopefully

169
00:08:10,320 --> 00:08:13,160
Speaker 3: the work will be done quickly for everyone's sake. They

170
00:08:13,200 --> 00:08:16,320
Speaker 3: seem satisfied enough, so I said, have a good day

171
00:08:16,800 --> 00:08:19,320
Speaker 3: and shut my door. I'm getting the sense that they're

172
00:08:19,400 --> 00:08:22,280
Speaker 3: nervous about what the contractors will find when they tear

173
00:08:22,360 --> 00:08:25,800
Speaker 3: open their patio. What the f is up with dirt rituals?

174
00:08:25,920 --> 00:08:28,400
Speaker 3: Who are these people she's working with. I don't know

175
00:08:28,440 --> 00:08:31,080
Speaker 3: what they look like or why they're available to stomp

176
00:08:31,120 --> 00:08:34,400
Speaker 3: around on weekdays. The repair work is started on both sides,

177
00:08:34,440 --> 00:08:37,120
Speaker 3: but the contractors will come on Wednesday for the grand

178
00:08:37,160 --> 00:08:41,960
Speaker 3: reveal of what's under the patio that's making my ceiling collapse.

179
00:08:42,400 --> 00:08:44,160
Speaker 2: Oh what do they got under there? Dude?

180
00:08:44,160 --> 00:08:47,280
Speaker 3: They got some skeletons in the patio.

181
00:08:47,480 --> 00:08:49,480
Speaker 5: They got like the what do they got buried under

182
00:08:49,480 --> 00:08:51,280
Speaker 5: the floorboards at ground Postyle.

183
00:08:51,760 --> 00:08:54,439
Speaker 3: Yeah, he's like, I've been noticing a lot of mushrooms

184
00:08:54,600 --> 00:08:55,840
Speaker 3: growing on my ceiling.

185
00:08:56,160 --> 00:08:57,199
Speaker 2: Yeah, and I'm hearing it.

186
00:08:59,080 --> 00:09:01,280
Speaker 3: And I also feel really guilty about something.

187
00:09:01,400 --> 00:09:01,760
Speaker 2: Yes.

188
00:09:02,240 --> 00:09:04,240
Speaker 3: In the meantime, I feel like I need to be

189
00:09:04,280 --> 00:09:07,520
Speaker 3: alert and keep my eyes out for these people as

190
00:09:07,559 --> 00:09:10,320
Speaker 3: well as the couple. It's unusual for me to see

191
00:09:10,320 --> 00:09:13,640
Speaker 3: them in general, especially twice in two days. They seem

192
00:09:13,880 --> 00:09:17,600
Speaker 3: scared and in denial of the problem. They also literally

193
00:09:17,760 --> 00:09:22,520
Speaker 3: ambushed me. Hopefully it's over soon. Audio recordings. We have

194
00:09:22,600 --> 00:09:26,600
Speaker 3: audio recordings, what guys, We have audio recordings, and Keon's

195
00:09:26,600 --> 00:09:29,880
Speaker 3: gonna find those. But I'm gonna read the comments. Comment one.

196
00:09:30,160 --> 00:09:32,840
Speaker 3: I have long, straight, dark hair, being half Indigenous and

197
00:09:32,840 --> 00:09:35,000
Speaker 3: half white, and I hope people don't associate me with

198
00:09:35,040 --> 00:09:37,440
Speaker 3: creepy horse girls like this. I wish people would stop

199
00:09:37,440 --> 00:09:40,560
Speaker 3: with the long hair equals weird thing when it's a cultural, spiritual,

200
00:09:40,600 --> 00:09:45,880
Speaker 3: and genetic thing for us. If specific comment, well, no,

201
00:09:45,960 --> 00:09:47,640
Speaker 3: I do want to say, like long hair is like

202
00:09:47,960 --> 00:09:50,319
Speaker 3: very much a very important thing in a lot of

203
00:09:50,360 --> 00:09:52,839
Speaker 3: different cultures. I don't think that's what OPI was going for, though.

204
00:09:53,320 --> 00:09:54,360
Speaker 2: I think Opie was going.

205
00:09:54,240 --> 00:09:56,600
Speaker 3: For, like cultest. I'm describing what she looks like.

206
00:09:56,600 --> 00:09:59,480
Speaker 5: If your hair is too long, you're not trusted. I

207
00:09:59,520 --> 00:10:01,080
Speaker 5: don't think it's a general rule.

208
00:10:01,320 --> 00:10:03,040
Speaker 2: What are you hiding?

209
00:10:02,440 --> 00:10:04,120
Speaker 3: What's in all that hair?

210
00:10:04,559 --> 00:10:06,520
Speaker 2: What do you keep in that hair? Long? Hair?

211
00:10:06,559 --> 00:10:09,599
Speaker 5: Is it has to be so long? Don't listen to hers. No,

212
00:10:09,679 --> 00:10:12,040
Speaker 5: it's not cut your hair, cut all your hair off,

213
00:10:13,120 --> 00:10:15,440
Speaker 5: hair off, Send it to me in a bag. Because

214
00:10:15,559 --> 00:10:16,560
Speaker 5: I'm a hair.

215
00:10:16,360 --> 00:10:22,280
Speaker 2: Coultist, I think, don't do that. Please, don't actually do that.

216
00:10:22,320 --> 00:10:23,760
Speaker 2: Please video.

217
00:10:24,480 --> 00:10:27,120
Speaker 3: Okay, So it's like peeling a heart. That's what it

218
00:10:27,120 --> 00:10:27,640
Speaker 3: looks like.

219
00:10:27,760 --> 00:10:29,920
Speaker 2: That's there's a there's a hold on. I don't know

220
00:10:29,960 --> 00:10:31,959
Speaker 2: if we can hear it. What did they bury in

221
00:10:32,000 --> 00:10:34,839
Speaker 2: the very? Is it just more dirt? I think that's

222
00:10:35,000 --> 00:10:35,720
Speaker 2: I can hear it.

223
00:10:35,760 --> 00:10:36,480
Speaker 3: Jack, can you hear it?

224
00:10:36,559 --> 00:10:37,599
Speaker 1: Let me let me hear it.

225
00:10:37,679 --> 00:10:38,880
Speaker 2: I can maybe change that.

226
00:10:39,480 --> 00:10:40,240
Speaker 3: It's like a thumping.

227
00:10:40,640 --> 00:10:42,120
Speaker 2: That's the thumping of the heart.

228
00:10:42,400 --> 00:10:43,120
Speaker 3: That's terrible.

229
00:10:43,280 --> 00:10:45,480
Speaker 2: The person buried in their ceiling.

230
00:10:46,000 --> 00:10:48,080
Speaker 3: It literally sounds like a heart beating.

Speaker 5: They were like, do you think your ceiling's really caving in?

244
00:11:22,559 --> 00:11:25,000
Speaker 5: Like our patio is fine, Like, what do you it's from.

245
00:11:25,240 --> 00:11:26,959

Speaker 3: a lot of like mold kind of stuff.

255
00:11:53,040 --> 00:11:56,360
Speaker 2: They're just like spraying like water and dirt and goose.

256
00:11:56,880 --> 00:12:01,400
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, the ceiling is not looking good for podcast listeners.

257
00:12:01,520 --> 00:12:04,040
Speaker 3: You guys, If you guys are quiet for a second,

258
00:12:04,080 --> 00:12:06,920
Speaker 3: I think they can sort of here here.

259
00:12:06,960 --> 00:12:09,719
Speaker 2: I mean, it just sounds like an old like kutchunk.

260
00:12:12,559 --> 00:12:12,839
Speaker 5: Like there.

261
00:12:19,480 --> 00:12:23,000
Speaker 3: It's yeah, it's just a good yeah. But we're gonna

262
00:12:23,000 --> 00:12:25,480
Speaker 3: get into the update figures out what.

263
00:12:25,559 --> 00:12:27,760
Speaker 2: Does it does? Sound a bit like a wash It

264
00:12:27,800 --> 00:12:29,440
Speaker 2: sounds like a washing machine with a brick in it.

265
00:12:29,600 --> 00:12:32,760
Speaker 3: Yeah, but we got an update. The contractors came today

266
00:12:32,920 --> 00:12:37,800
Speaker 3: and reported that there was in fact dirt and sludge

267
00:12:38,240 --> 00:12:40,200
Speaker 3: no visible below the neighbor's patty.

268
00:12:40,360 --> 00:12:42,640
Speaker 2: That's the next step of the dirt cult.

269
00:12:42,720 --> 00:12:47,920
Speaker 4: Is they the people down sludge the sludge, bathe with

270
00:12:48,120 --> 00:12:48,920
Speaker 4: the sludge.

271
00:12:49,160 --> 00:12:52,120
Speaker 3: However, thanks to the help of my internet sleuthing friend,

272
00:12:52,320 --> 00:12:54,840
Speaker 3: I've gained a lot more insight into the realm that

273
00:12:54,920 --> 00:12:59,040
Speaker 3: dwells above me. Spooky, as one redditor suggested, nice work.

274
00:12:59,160 --> 00:13:03,240
Speaker 3: My neighbor is a affiliated with multiple ecstatic dance communities,

275
00:13:03,440 --> 00:13:05,320
Speaker 3: both international and locals.

276
00:13:05,160 --> 00:13:07,959
Speaker 2: It's just people who are like does that mean jazzed about?

277
00:13:08,360 --> 00:13:09,600
Speaker 3: Like I love dance.

278
00:13:09,840 --> 00:13:14,480
Speaker 5: I'm just ecstatic for dance and they're just doing like the.

279
00:13:15,880 --> 00:13:16,600
Speaker 3: Like I love dance.

280
00:13:16,640 --> 00:13:18,080
Speaker 2: Suppose that you show me your jazz hands.

281
00:13:18,120 --> 00:13:21,360
Speaker 3: Go what those are?

282
00:13:21,400 --> 00:13:22,200
Speaker 2: Jazz fingers?

283
00:13:22,240 --> 00:13:26,040
Speaker 3: I don't stop, get your jazz fingers out and cult now,

284
00:13:26,400 --> 00:13:31,480
Speaker 3: oh no, the jazz cult man. The international group has

285
00:13:31,520 --> 00:13:35,319
Speaker 3: planned events during which all cells of the organization host

286
00:13:35,600 --> 00:13:41,000
Speaker 3: dance sessions simultaneously. They're like, and what, everyone start dancing

287
00:13:41,120 --> 00:13:42,640
Speaker 3: right now all across the world.

288
00:13:42,679 --> 00:13:45,120
Speaker 5: It's like, if everyone in the world like jumped at

289
00:13:45,160 --> 00:13:49,360
Speaker 5: the same time, we could change the axis that the

290
00:13:49,360 --> 00:13:51,359
Speaker 5: world sits upon exactly.

291
00:13:51,440 --> 00:13:54,640
Speaker 2: They're trying to. They're trying to that's shift the poles.

292
00:13:54,920 --> 00:13:56,000
Speaker 3: That's their evil plan.

293
00:13:56,160 --> 00:13:58,760
Speaker 2: Yeah, shift the pole. They're trying to flip the poles

294
00:13:58,760 --> 00:13:59,640
Speaker 2: from north to south.

295
00:14:00,360 --> 00:14:02,360
Speaker 1: Hey's sean here, We're gonna get back to this episode,

296
00:14:02,400 --> 00:14:04,640
Speaker 1: but a quick three minute break with aswer more sponsors.

297
00:14:05,120 --> 00:14:08,520
Speaker 3: It also has a YouTube channel that streams sy trance

298
00:14:08,600 --> 00:14:11,080
Speaker 3: music twenty four seven. I listened to a portion of it,

299
00:14:11,120 --> 00:14:15,720
Speaker 3: and a female voiceover declared, you are becoming the game master.

300
00:14:16,280 --> 00:14:17,680
Speaker 3: What we're playing D and D?

301
00:14:17,800 --> 00:14:19,160
Speaker 2: Now? Is this? What?

302
00:14:19,400 --> 00:14:21,960
Speaker 3: This is a giant all along, it's been a giant

303
00:14:22,040 --> 00:14:25,400
Speaker 3: D and D group. What. Meanwhile, the local group seem

304
00:14:25,440 --> 00:14:28,560
Speaker 3: to be more exclusive and more radical in their mindset.

305
00:14:28,840 --> 00:14:31,560
Speaker 3: One of the local groups, hosted by my neighbor's good friend,

306
00:14:31,800 --> 00:14:35,520
Speaker 3: conducts three day events that cost upwards of four hundred

307
00:14:35,560 --> 00:14:39,160
Speaker 3: dollars for admission. Participation in all three days is mandatory.

308
00:14:39,280 --> 00:14:42,160
Speaker 3: I get the impression they all sleep in the studio space,

309
00:14:42,640 --> 00:14:46,280
Speaker 3: and the event description mentions that it begins with a ritual,

310
00:14:46,760 --> 00:14:48,160
Speaker 3: a dirt ritual.

311
00:14:48,600 --> 00:14:49,320
Speaker 2: Ooh.

312
00:14:49,360 --> 00:14:52,960
Speaker 3: The last and darkest affiliation that I've confirmed via social

313
00:14:53,040 --> 00:14:55,920
Speaker 3: media footprints is that my neighbor and a few members

314
00:14:55,920 --> 00:14:59,520
Speaker 3: of the local communities are also involved with some compassionate

315
00:14:59,680 --> 00:15:02,520
Speaker 3: PAS groups. There's no way for me to verify at

316
00:15:02,520 --> 00:15:05,480
Speaker 3: this time if the affiliations overlap in a meaningful way.

317
00:15:05,680 --> 00:15:07,640
Speaker 3: So I will simply state the facts that I have

318
00:15:07,720 --> 00:15:10,720
Speaker 3: evidence to prove. What is So, what do you think

319
00:15:10,800 --> 00:15:14,680

321
00:15:19,200 --> 00:15:21,800
Speaker 5: is that, I don't know, but I'm getting the feeling

322
00:15:21,840 --> 00:15:23,640
Speaker 5: that this dirt has something to do with it.

323
00:15:23,960 --> 00:15:28,720
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, again, It's like the like dirt used during funerals,

324
00:15:28,880 --> 00:15:31,880
Speaker 3: putting over the coffin wear, something like that.

325
00:15:32,360 --> 00:15:37,200
Speaker 5: If they're like, if this dirt's got human remains in it,

326
00:15:37,280 --> 00:15:40,520
Speaker 5: I swear on my mama.

327
00:15:40,400 --> 00:15:41,000
Speaker 2: That's gross.

328
00:15:41,200 --> 00:15:44,400

332
00:15:52,480 --> 00:15:56,200
Speaker 3: Red B compassionate. This is when you are being told

333
00:15:56,240 --> 00:15:58,760
Speaker 3: by a doctor that you can pass on your own terms,

334
00:15:58,920 --> 00:16:02,400
Speaker 3: which honestly is not like that. That honestly is not

335
00:16:02,440 --> 00:16:02,880
Speaker 3: that bad.

336
00:16:03,000 --> 00:16:05,200

337
00:16:05,200 --> 00:16:08,120
Speaker 5: want you to turn me into go and spread me

338
00:16:08,160 --> 00:16:09,120
Speaker 5: in your apartment.

339
00:16:09,240 --> 00:16:11,920
Speaker 2: That's not on the floor. That's not good. I don't know.

340
00:16:12,120 --> 00:16:14,600
Speaker 5: And I want everyone to jump on my dirt. That's

341
00:16:14,640 --> 00:16:15,880
Speaker 5: not that's you can't do that.

342
00:16:16,160 --> 00:16:16,680
Speaker 3: Can't do that.

343
00:16:17,040 --> 00:16:18,600
Speaker 2: Oh, please tell me that's not what you're doing.

00:16:18,720 --> 00:16:19,040
Speaker 3: Hope not.

345
00:16:19,520 --> 00:16:20,640
Speaker 2: It's the game master.

346
00:16:21,480 --> 00:16:24,200
Speaker 3: What does that mean? My super asked me about the

347
00:16:24,280 --> 00:16:27,200
Speaker 3: jumping again when I saw him today. He remains eager

348
00:16:27,320 --> 00:16:29,840
Speaker 3: to act. He agreed with my new game plan to

349
00:16:29,920 --> 00:16:32,600
Speaker 3: wait for another large event to happen and then call

350
00:16:32,720 --> 00:16:37,440
Speaker 3: him to check on my dishwasher so you can intervene, right, yeah,

351
00:16:37,600 --> 00:16:41,120
Speaker 3: quote unquote dishwasher. So for now, the ways in which

352
00:16:41,160 --> 00:16:46,200
Speaker 3: the puzzle pieces of Ecstatic Dance compassionate passing, patio dirt, rituals,

353
00:16:46,240 --> 00:16:50,760
Speaker 3: and ceiling collapse connects will remain a mystery. Okay again,
