1 00:00:00,600 --> 00:00:04,480 Speaker 1: Q and On is the world's largest online political conspiracy movement. 2 00:00:05,160 --> 00:00:08,080 Speaker 1: Followers believe someone code named Q is provided them with 3 00:00:08,119 --> 00:00:11,840 Speaker 1: secret information from inside the White House. No one really 4 00:00:11,840 --> 00:00:14,720 Speaker 1: knows the real identity of Q, though we aim to 5 00:00:14,800 --> 00:00:19,800 Speaker 1: change that. I'm Jake Hanrahan and this is Q Clearance, 6 00:00:20,120 --> 00:00:23,759 Speaker 1: a podcast series aimed unmasking the true identity of Q. 7 00:00:25,160 --> 00:00:27,560 Speaker 1: This is brought to you by I R Radio and 8 00:00:27,640 --> 00:00:33,920 Speaker 1: Q Daytaur Media. Last episode, we pinpointed and named who 9 00:00:33,960 --> 00:00:37,879 Speaker 1: we think the biggest players are behind the Q and 10 00:00:37,960 --> 00:00:42,680 Speaker 1: On hoax. That is Jim Watkins and his son, Ron Watkins. 11 00:00:43,800 --> 00:00:46,479 Speaker 1: In this episode will be building up the case of 12 00:00:46,560 --> 00:00:51,680 Speaker 1: evidence that strengthens this accusation. First, though, let's take a 13 00:00:51,720 --> 00:00:54,000 Speaker 1: look at what's been going on in the Q and 14 00:00:54,000 --> 00:00:59,080 Speaker 1: On universe in the last two weeks. So, in a 15 00:00:59,120 --> 00:01:02,440 Speaker 1: twist so ridiculous I almost thought it was a joke 16 00:01:02,520 --> 00:01:06,360 Speaker 1: when someone sent it to me, Donald Trump has retweeted 17 00:01:06,520 --> 00:01:12,440 Speaker 1: a video with Ron Watkins in it on November What's more, 18 00:01:12,800 --> 00:01:17,440 Speaker 1: Ron Watkins was presented as an expert and cited as 19 00:01:17,520 --> 00:01:22,600 Speaker 1: a large systems technical analyst in the video, which technically 20 00:01:22,840 --> 00:01:27,560 Speaker 1: probably isn't inaccurate, But what they left out is very telling. 21 00:01:27,920 --> 00:01:32,679 Speaker 1: We'll get onto that later. Anyway, let me explain this video. 22 00:01:33,800 --> 00:01:38,280 Speaker 1: So Trump's new favorite channel seems to be this network 23 00:01:38,480 --> 00:01:43,360 Speaker 1: called O A n N, which stands for One America 24 00:01:43,520 --> 00:01:48,639 Speaker 1: News Network. The channel vaguely presents itself as news media, 25 00:01:48,760 --> 00:01:53,080 Speaker 1: but in reality, it's built to spread part of analyzes 26 00:01:53,400 --> 00:01:57,760 Speaker 1: and propaganda. Now that's not me being biased about their content, 27 00:01:57,840 --> 00:02:01,680 Speaker 1: by the way, that's just the presentation of what they're doing. 28 00:02:01,880 --> 00:02:04,400 Speaker 1: You can fact check O A n and yourself if 29 00:02:04,440 --> 00:02:08,399 Speaker 1: you want. Is mostly bullshit, and that's what you'll find there. 30 00:02:09,240 --> 00:02:13,560 Speaker 1: They talk nonsense, they presented as fact, get everyone riled up, 31 00:02:13,720 --> 00:02:17,920 Speaker 1: and then move on to the next segment. Unfortunately, it's 32 00:02:17,960 --> 00:02:21,760 Speaker 1: a tried and tested model within US news media recently 33 00:02:22,160 --> 00:02:27,080 Speaker 1: for both Republicans and Democrats. OH A n N is 34 00:02:27,160 --> 00:02:31,720 Speaker 1: just taken the disinformation a step further, turning it up 35 00:02:31,760 --> 00:02:34,880 Speaker 1: to eleven. If you like, have a listen to the 36 00:02:34,919 --> 00:02:38,120 Speaker 1: piece Trump retweeted. It will give you a feel for 37 00:02:38,200 --> 00:02:42,400 Speaker 1: what OH A n N is about. Well. Voter for 38 00:02:42,480 --> 00:02:45,880 Speaker 1: Our deniers continue to proclaim the perfection of the U 39 00:02:46,000 --> 00:02:49,840 Speaker 1: S election system. Skeptics are looking at irregular patterns in 40 00:02:50,000 --> 00:02:54,840 Speaker 1: vote data, in particular software irregularities that would switch votes 41 00:02:54,919 --> 00:02:58,720 Speaker 1: from President Trump to Joe Biden. Dominion voting systems. There's 42 00:02:58,760 --> 00:03:01,720 Speaker 1: one such software that's seemed to have a pattern of 43 00:03:02,200 --> 00:03:06,280 Speaker 1: switching votes from Trump to Biden. How easily could bad 44 00:03:06,320 --> 00:03:09,359 Speaker 1: actors have used Dominion to switch thousands of votes and 45 00:03:09,480 --> 00:03:13,200 Speaker 1: alter an election county by county. The answer is shocking. 46 00:03:14,040 --> 00:03:17,639 Speaker 1: One American News spoke with Ron Watkins, a large systems 47 00:03:17,800 --> 00:03:21,280 Speaker 1: technical analyst who has been pouring over the Dominion Systems 48 00:03:21,400 --> 00:03:24,560 Speaker 1: manual of so I was looking at this manual with 49 00:03:24,680 --> 00:03:28,120 Speaker 1: the mindset of a penetration tester, but which I am. 50 00:03:28,240 --> 00:03:31,040 Speaker 1: I'm reading the manual with the discerning iron. Now, within 51 00:03:31,120 --> 00:03:35,560 Speaker 1: this supposed news segment, not one scrap of actual evidence 52 00:03:35,680 --> 00:03:39,960 Speaker 1: was presented. Please remember, I am not pro Biden, I 53 00:03:40,000 --> 00:03:44,440 Speaker 1: am not pro Trump. I don't care about politicians. However, 54 00:03:44,760 --> 00:03:47,120 Speaker 1: I do care about the truth, and what O A 55 00:03:47,480 --> 00:03:50,640 Speaker 1: n N is trying to do is just spread misinformation. 56 00:03:51,080 --> 00:03:54,360 Speaker 1: I think that's probably why they got somebody like Ron 57 00:03:54,560 --> 00:03:57,040 Speaker 1: Watkins on to talk about this, because at the end 58 00:03:57,040 --> 00:03:59,720 Speaker 1: of the day, Ron Watkins is going to completely a 59 00:04:00,040 --> 00:04:03,360 Speaker 1: e with the pro Trump line that they are trying 60 00:04:03,400 --> 00:04:07,000 Speaker 1: to put out. Funnily enough, in the segment. Obviously you 61 00:04:07,080 --> 00:04:11,000 Speaker 1: can't see it. Ron Watkins is wearing a cowboy hat 62 00:04:11,040 --> 00:04:15,040 Speaker 1: as they speak to him. Anyway, So, as you just 63 00:04:15,160 --> 00:04:19,240 Speaker 1: heard in that segment that Trump retweeted, O A n 64 00:04:19,480 --> 00:04:22,599 Speaker 1: N claims to have found all sorts of vulnerabilities with 65 00:04:22,839 --> 00:04:27,240 Speaker 1: the voting systems that millions of Americans used to vote 66 00:04:27,279 --> 00:04:31,000 Speaker 1: in the recent election. Oh A n N is of 67 00:04:31,040 --> 00:04:35,279 Speaker 1: course extremely pro Trump, and they're refusing to accept that 68 00:04:35,360 --> 00:04:39,560 Speaker 1: he lost the election to Joe Biden. Ron Watkins, the 69 00:04:39,640 --> 00:04:44,000 Speaker 1: former admin of eight Con until very recently, is also 70 00:04:44,279 --> 00:04:49,400 Speaker 1: extremely pro Trump. He is a huge MAGA fundamentalist. Neither 71 00:04:49,520 --> 00:04:53,400 Speaker 1: Ron nor his father Jim can accept that Trump lost 72 00:04:53,400 --> 00:04:57,599 Speaker 1: the election. They're saying that the dominion voting system machines 73 00:04:57,640 --> 00:05:01,039 Speaker 1: were corrupted somehow. There is several differ theories, all of 74 00:05:01,040 --> 00:05:04,800 Speaker 1: which have been disproven. The segment of the O A 75 00:05:05,160 --> 00:05:09,480 Speaker 1: n N piece is largely irrelevant. Actually. What is relevant, though, 76 00:05:09,720 --> 00:05:14,000 Speaker 1: is how the Internet underworld and the political elite have 77 00:05:14,120 --> 00:05:17,599 Speaker 1: begun to merge for a small moment in time. It's 78 00:05:17,640 --> 00:05:20,400 Speaker 1: almost as if Q and on has become a self 79 00:05:20,440 --> 00:05:25,560 Speaker 1: fulfilling prophecy. Here. Donald Trump, the former president of the US, 80 00:05:26,040 --> 00:05:30,560 Speaker 1: retweeted a piece where Ron Watkins, the former admin of 81 00:05:30,720 --> 00:05:34,680 Speaker 1: a KUN, was cited as an expert looking into the 82 00:05:34,720 --> 00:05:38,760 Speaker 1: alleged stolen election. If you don't see the irony, and no, 83 00:05:38,920 --> 00:05:42,000 Speaker 1: I really don't know what to tell you, I don't 84 00:05:42,080 --> 00:05:48,159 Speaker 1: think the relevance of Trump retweeting Ron Watkins can be overstated. 85 00:05:48,640 --> 00:05:52,720 Speaker 1: He's basically given a lot of attention and credibility to 86 00:05:53,160 --> 00:05:57,400 Speaker 1: Ron Watkins and therefore a con and h Chan because 87 00:05:57,400 --> 00:06:01,000 Speaker 1: obviously that's what he's associated with now. I doubt Trump 88 00:06:01,080 --> 00:06:04,040 Speaker 1: even watched the full thing or knows about Ron Watkins, 89 00:06:04,040 --> 00:06:07,880 Speaker 1: but the fact he has even retweeted this wildly says 90 00:06:07,960 --> 00:06:11,479 Speaker 1: a lot. I think it might embolden the Q and 91 00:06:11,520 --> 00:06:14,919 Speaker 1: on people, and you never know, this might be the 92 00:06:14,960 --> 00:06:18,440 Speaker 1: first step for Trump to lean into the Q and 93 00:06:18,520 --> 00:06:21,880 Speaker 1: on theory a little bit more. Obviously, he's going to 94 00:06:22,000 --> 00:06:24,520 Speaker 1: have to leave the White House soon. The Q and 95 00:06:24,600 --> 00:06:27,080 Speaker 1: On theories are not coming to the storm is not coming, 96 00:06:27,680 --> 00:06:30,440 Speaker 1: and he's going to need a new career. No doubt 97 00:06:30,440 --> 00:06:33,200 Speaker 1: he'll start something like Trump TV, or he'll be on 98 00:06:33,279 --> 00:06:35,719 Speaker 1: oh A and and all the time. But I do 99 00:06:35,839 --> 00:06:39,640 Speaker 1: wonder if this is his first step to leaning into 100 00:06:39,760 --> 00:06:42,560 Speaker 1: Q and on a little bit he basically has a 101 00:06:42,640 --> 00:06:46,960 Speaker 1: pre paid audience already they're waiting for him, which is 102 00:06:47,000 --> 00:06:51,360 Speaker 1: even more sticking in when you consider what Ron Watkins 103 00:06:51,440 --> 00:06:55,960 Speaker 1: has been the admin of now. As I mentioned before, 104 00:06:56,360 --> 00:06:59,880 Speaker 1: the real reason this is noteworthy is what oh A 105 00:07:00,000 --> 00:07:03,880 Speaker 1: in and left out of the detail. When citing Ron 106 00:07:04,000 --> 00:07:09,760 Speaker 1: Watkins as an expert, they said Ron Watkins is a 107 00:07:09,840 --> 00:07:14,760 Speaker 1: large systems technical analyst. What they failed to mention is 108 00:07:14,800 --> 00:07:19,320 Speaker 1: that Ron Watkins allowed the sharing of child abuse images 109 00:07:19,560 --> 00:07:22,400 Speaker 1: whilst he was the admin of h chan and the 110 00:07:22,480 --> 00:07:26,520 Speaker 1: admin of a coon. It wasn't just the odd pedophile 111 00:07:26,640 --> 00:07:30,320 Speaker 1: posting here and there through the cracks either. H n 112 00:07:30,520 --> 00:07:34,760 Speaker 1: had its own board for sharing images of young, fully 113 00:07:34,800 --> 00:07:40,960 Speaker 1: clothed girls in suggestive poses. H Chan allowed pedophiles to 114 00:07:41,080 --> 00:07:44,760 Speaker 1: discuss their horrific acts of child abuse as if they 115 00:07:44,760 --> 00:07:50,080 Speaker 1: were war stories. All of this happened whilst Ron Watkins 116 00:07:50,200 --> 00:07:54,440 Speaker 1: was in control as the admin and his dad, Jim Watkins, 117 00:07:54,440 --> 00:07:58,040 Speaker 1: owned the site. I find it hard to believe that 118 00:07:58,120 --> 00:08:01,200 Speaker 1: the people of O A N, then what unaware of 119 00:08:01,240 --> 00:08:05,400 Speaker 1: all this. They've known about h chan for well over 120 00:08:05,480 --> 00:08:09,320 Speaker 1: a year. They'd had Jim Watkins on as a guest 121 00:08:09,600 --> 00:08:15,800 Speaker 1: in September, the sharing of a child abuse material on 122 00:08:16,200 --> 00:08:20,080 Speaker 1: h Chan and a con is something we've mentioned time 123 00:08:20,160 --> 00:08:24,240 Speaker 1: and again at Q Clearance. It might seem repetitive, but 124 00:08:24,360 --> 00:08:28,680 Speaker 1: I think it's important to be regularly reminded that the 125 00:08:28,760 --> 00:08:33,720 Speaker 1: Internet image board the QUE posts about pedophile cabalson is 126 00:08:33,760 --> 00:08:39,800 Speaker 1: in fact host to several pedophile cabals is completely contradictory 127 00:08:40,160 --> 00:08:50,400 Speaker 1: and it's sickening. Anyway, moving on, it's time now to 128 00:08:50,520 --> 00:08:56,000 Speaker 1: look into Jim Watkins and why Fountain pens and yoga 129 00:08:56,520 --> 00:09:02,040 Speaker 1: might connect him further to Q. Now, before we expand 130 00:09:02,080 --> 00:09:04,880 Speaker 1: on all this, remember I am not saying that this 131 00:09:05,040 --> 00:09:08,440 Speaker 1: is all binding proof. You can make your own mind 132 00:09:08,480 --> 00:09:11,880 Speaker 1: up on whether it's relevant or not. But I'm not saying, hey, 133 00:09:11,920 --> 00:09:16,080 Speaker 1: this is one proof. What I'm saying is I think 134 00:09:16,120 --> 00:09:20,480 Speaker 1: this all stacks up as further evidence that Jim is 135 00:09:20,559 --> 00:09:26,640 Speaker 1: in fact behind Q. So if you weren't aware, Jim 136 00:09:26,679 --> 00:09:32,480 Speaker 1: Watkins has a niche interest in fountain pens. On his 137 00:09:32,800 --> 00:09:38,440 Speaker 1: bizarre YouTube channel Watkins Xerxes, there are many videos of 138 00:09:38,520 --> 00:09:44,680 Speaker 1: him reviewing fountain pens, cleaning fountain pens, talking about fountain pens. 139 00:09:45,760 --> 00:09:48,720 Speaker 1: Have a listen here to the audio from one of 140 00:09:48,800 --> 00:09:53,560 Speaker 1: Jim's videos titled making certain the Pennies clean, Let's join 141 00:09:53,640 --> 00:09:57,520 Speaker 1: the pen fifteen club. It was from a live stream. 142 00:09:57,520 --> 00:10:00,840 Speaker 1: He talks about the state of governments of Aidens briefly, 143 00:10:00,920 --> 00:10:04,480 Speaker 1: which I think is interesting, and then he goes into 144 00:10:04,640 --> 00:10:08,960 Speaker 1: talking about his pens. I would listen, Domina, I think 145 00:10:09,080 --> 00:10:12,640 Speaker 1: for a moment that the five Eyes people are on 146 00:10:12,640 --> 00:10:17,360 Speaker 1: our team anymore. They have thoroughly invested and been invested 147 00:10:17,440 --> 00:10:21,920 Speaker 1: in by veg Aisia. So I'm going to clean pensively 148 00:10:22,000 --> 00:10:26,640 Speaker 1: and relax. What I have here first is a Viscountry 149 00:10:26,720 --> 00:10:31,400 Speaker 1: van Go and it actually is my favorite pen. And 150 00:10:31,400 --> 00:10:36,079 Speaker 1: then it's a beautiful fan. Now you might be thinking, 151 00:10:36,440 --> 00:10:39,440 Speaker 1: what the fund does Jim's fountain pens have to do 152 00:10:39,760 --> 00:10:44,360 Speaker 1: with Q? Well, it just so happens that Q is 153 00:10:44,400 --> 00:10:49,600 Speaker 1: also quite interested in fountain pens. In fact, in several 154 00:10:49,679 --> 00:10:53,920 Speaker 1: Q drops, Q uses the phrase follow the pen and 155 00:10:54,000 --> 00:10:57,440 Speaker 1: shows a photo of a fountain pen laid out on 156 00:10:57,600 --> 00:11:02,360 Speaker 1: some White House letterheaded paper. It's all very vague, but 157 00:11:02,400 --> 00:11:06,120 Speaker 1: the insinuation is that the photo of the fountain pen 158 00:11:06,559 --> 00:11:09,800 Speaker 1: is some kind of confirmation that Q is in fact 159 00:11:10,160 --> 00:11:12,839 Speaker 1: sat with his feet up in the White House. There's 160 00:11:12,880 --> 00:11:16,240 Speaker 1: also some Q drops saying follow the pen with a 161 00:11:16,320 --> 00:11:19,760 Speaker 1: letter that's been signed by Trump and various other people. Again, 162 00:11:20,000 --> 00:11:24,360 Speaker 1: the insinuation is yet Q is on the inside, and 163 00:11:24,440 --> 00:11:27,040 Speaker 1: you can see this if you just follow the pen. 164 00:11:27,720 --> 00:11:30,439 Speaker 1: Of course, anyone could just print this paper up and 165 00:11:30,480 --> 00:11:34,400 Speaker 1: take an unclear shot with their fountain pen next to it. 166 00:11:35,520 --> 00:11:38,480 Speaker 1: I mean, if you look at Jim's YouTube video I 167 00:11:38,720 --> 00:11:42,440 Speaker 1: just mentioned a minute ago, the one titled making Certain 168 00:11:42,480 --> 00:11:45,439 Speaker 1: the pen is clean, Let's join the pen fifteen club. 169 00:11:45,920 --> 00:11:48,600 Speaker 1: There are many moments where you see the desk he's 170 00:11:48,640 --> 00:11:51,840 Speaker 1: working at. It could very easily be the same as 171 00:11:51,880 --> 00:11:56,000 Speaker 1: the cryptic shot you posted with the fountain pen. There's 172 00:11:56,000 --> 00:11:59,200 Speaker 1: even a moment at five thirty two in the video 173 00:11:59,640 --> 00:12:03,280 Speaker 1: where you see a fountain pen next to a black 174 00:12:03,480 --> 00:12:08,240 Speaker 1: ledger with a stack of papers nearby that's very similar 175 00:12:08,280 --> 00:12:11,680 Speaker 1: to the photo from the follow the pen que drop 176 00:12:11,720 --> 00:12:14,920 Speaker 1: I was just on about now. Of course, anyone with 177 00:12:15,040 --> 00:12:18,160 Speaker 1: a home office is likely to have this kind of 178 00:12:18,200 --> 00:12:22,080 Speaker 1: set up. It proves nothing, really, but the strange follow 179 00:12:22,160 --> 00:12:26,040 Speaker 1: the pen phrase a clear extension of cues follow the plan, 180 00:12:26,679 --> 00:12:31,920 Speaker 1: coupled with Jim's unusually detailed love of a niche hobby 181 00:12:32,160 --> 00:12:36,880 Speaker 1: of fountain pen enthusiasm is quite a coincidence if you 182 00:12:37,000 --> 00:12:41,680 Speaker 1: ask me, especially if you consider that the follow the 183 00:12:41,760 --> 00:12:48,199 Speaker 1: pen posts only began happening in mid If you remember, 184 00:12:48,600 --> 00:12:52,360 Speaker 1: that's around the time we think Paul Ferber had his 185 00:12:52,440 --> 00:12:58,280 Speaker 1: que and on account hijacked by the Watkins family. Also, 186 00:12:58,679 --> 00:13:02,200 Speaker 1: the five I is Watkins is concerned about in the 187 00:13:02,280 --> 00:13:06,599 Speaker 1: YouTube clip we just heard is also a concern of Q. 188 00:13:08,000 --> 00:13:11,840 Speaker 1: The phrase five eyes was mentioned in more than ten 189 00:13:12,360 --> 00:13:18,080 Speaker 1: different Q drops in all in March, April and July. 190 00:13:18,920 --> 00:13:24,400 Speaker 1: The follow the pen posts started in May. Now, don't worry, 191 00:13:24,480 --> 00:13:27,120 Speaker 1: I haven't gone mad. I'm not trying to loosely connect 192 00:13:27,280 --> 00:13:32,040 Speaker 1: random dates and meanings. And whilst it's obvious that five Eyes, 193 00:13:32,760 --> 00:13:37,840 Speaker 1: a shared spying and surveillance operation between Australia, Canada, New 194 00:13:37,920 --> 00:13:42,040 Speaker 1: Zealand and the US and the UK, would be mentioned 195 00:13:42,040 --> 00:13:45,000 Speaker 1: by Q and on, I think it's at least worth 196 00:13:45,080 --> 00:13:50,760 Speaker 1: showing that there are many shared interests and concerns between 197 00:13:51,080 --> 00:13:57,880 Speaker 1: Jim Watkins and Q. Let's look at another one, yoga. 198 00:13:58,520 --> 00:14:02,080 Speaker 1: The yoga connection does have a lot of examples and 199 00:14:02,280 --> 00:14:05,319 Speaker 1: is therefore more of a tenuous link, but it's something 200 00:14:05,360 --> 00:14:09,480 Speaker 1: people mention online when discussing this, so we'll go over 201 00:14:09,559 --> 00:14:12,040 Speaker 1: it quickly here. I want you to be fully informed 202 00:14:12,040 --> 00:14:13,880 Speaker 1: because you might hear some people say, oh yeah, the 203 00:14:13,960 --> 00:14:17,000 Speaker 1: yoga connection, it's not much of a thing. But anyway, 204 00:14:17,080 --> 00:14:22,640 Speaker 1: let's have a look. So basically, on April six two 205 00:14:22,800 --> 00:14:27,040 Speaker 1: posted one drop that day saying simply clear your mind, 206 00:14:27,520 --> 00:14:33,760 Speaker 1: he'll Q attached with some generic peaceful stock music on YouTube. 207 00:14:34,680 --> 00:14:39,640 Speaker 1: Some have interpreted this as a yoga esque mantra clear 208 00:14:39,720 --> 00:14:43,040 Speaker 1: your mind. Hell that makes sense, I guess. Now this 209 00:14:43,160 --> 00:14:47,000 Speaker 1: connects to Jim Watkins for some because he has a 210 00:14:47,080 --> 00:14:51,440 Speaker 1: whole playlist on his YouTube with thirty five videos all 211 00:14:51,480 --> 00:14:55,800 Speaker 1: dedicated to him trying to do yoga. Many of them 212 00:14:56,080 --> 00:15:00,480 Speaker 1: do have generic yoga style music, but that's pretty normal 213 00:15:00,720 --> 00:15:04,320 Speaker 1: for yoga videos. Like I said, it's not that type 214 00:15:04,320 --> 00:15:06,560 Speaker 1: of a connection. We don't want to lose ourselves in 215 00:15:06,600 --> 00:15:09,600 Speaker 1: the weeze here and become qun on ourselves when looking 216 00:15:09,640 --> 00:15:12,600 Speaker 1: at the connections. But it is what it is. So 217 00:15:13,440 --> 00:15:18,480 Speaker 1: let's move away from this circumstantial stuff and look at 218 00:15:18,600 --> 00:15:22,840 Speaker 1: something more solid, that being the links that Jim and 219 00:15:23,000 --> 00:15:27,080 Speaker 1: Ron's h chan and a con seemed to have with 220 00:15:27,440 --> 00:15:30,520 Speaker 1: large q and on websites. When we look under the 221 00:15:30,520 --> 00:15:37,200 Speaker 1: bonnet and start getting technical. So on the twenty three August, 222 00:15:38,480 --> 00:15:43,320 Speaker 1: several people on Twitter, including Frederick Brennan, began looking into 223 00:15:43,360 --> 00:15:48,640 Speaker 1: the IP addresses of some q and on related websites. Now, 224 00:15:48,680 --> 00:15:51,800 Speaker 1: if you don't know, an I P address is basically 225 00:15:51,960 --> 00:15:57,120 Speaker 1: a numerical identifier that shows your machine is plugged in 226 00:15:57,480 --> 00:16:01,800 Speaker 1: and connected to the Internet Protocol from wherever it is. 227 00:16:03,000 --> 00:16:07,040 Speaker 1: So use on Twitter checked the IP address of a 228 00:16:07,160 --> 00:16:11,040 Speaker 1: huge q and on website known as q map dot 229 00:16:11,080 --> 00:16:15,680 Speaker 1: pub and he found that it had solid connections to 230 00:16:16,240 --> 00:16:20,560 Speaker 1: h Chan and a Coon. Now this is quite a 231 00:16:20,640 --> 00:16:24,080 Speaker 1: technical thing to understand, so I sent the data to 232 00:16:24,240 --> 00:16:26,960 Speaker 1: one of my closest friends, who is a bit of 233 00:16:27,000 --> 00:16:30,640 Speaker 1: a computer wizard kind of guy. For a living, he's 234 00:16:30,680 --> 00:16:34,240 Speaker 1: paid to make sure connections are safe for big companies 235 00:16:34,600 --> 00:16:38,240 Speaker 1: all over the world. That and some of the technical 236 00:16:38,320 --> 00:16:42,520 Speaker 1: computer stuff I don't fully understand. Anyway, this I tammate 237 00:16:42,640 --> 00:16:45,920 Speaker 1: of mine check the IP addresses and found the same 238 00:16:45,960 --> 00:16:50,240 Speaker 1: results as what was shown on Twitter. He'll hopefully explain 239 00:16:50,320 --> 00:16:55,320 Speaker 1: it a bit clearer than I can. When you go 240 00:16:55,480 --> 00:17:00,200 Speaker 1: to a website on your computer is hyping Google dot com. 241 00:17:00,240 --> 00:17:02,840 Speaker 1: In the background, there is something called the main name 242 00:17:02,960 --> 00:17:07,120 Speaker 1: service working and what that's doing is it is, it's 243 00:17:07,280 --> 00:17:12,920 Speaker 1: finding out where traffic needs to go. UM. So when 244 00:17:12,920 --> 00:17:16,320 Speaker 1: you type in Google dot com in the background, d 245 00:17:16,520 --> 00:17:18,600 Speaker 1: NS is saying, well, what I P address do I 246 00:17:18,640 --> 00:17:20,359 Speaker 1: need to go to? In your computer will talk to 247 00:17:21,119 --> 00:17:24,080 Speaker 1: a DNS server and the DNS server will tell your 248 00:17:24,119 --> 00:17:31,560 Speaker 1: computer go to this address. And what's happening here is 249 00:17:31,560 --> 00:17:35,000 Speaker 1: where these three websites is. When you do that, all 250 00:17:35,240 --> 00:17:39,520 Speaker 1: three of these domain names website names, they point to 251 00:17:40,400 --> 00:17:44,760 Speaker 1: exactly the same place. So if it's still not clear enough, 252 00:17:44,960 --> 00:17:48,320 Speaker 1: let's just go over it again. What we're saying is 253 00:17:48,840 --> 00:17:53,040 Speaker 1: wherever the large q and on website q map is hosted. 254 00:17:53,640 --> 00:17:57,639 Speaker 1: So is or has been the three following websites that 255 00:17:57,720 --> 00:18:02,240 Speaker 1: my friend just mentioned eight chan dot net, h chan 256 00:18:02,560 --> 00:18:06,960 Speaker 1: dot mo, a con dot top. These are all the 257 00:18:07,000 --> 00:18:13,360 Speaker 1: websites previously or currently owned or connected to the Watkins family. Now, 258 00:18:13,480 --> 00:18:16,240 Speaker 1: you could argue that they've all just used the same 259 00:18:16,280 --> 00:18:19,640 Speaker 1: service to avoid being kicked off of the Internet, as 260 00:18:19,840 --> 00:18:23,240 Speaker 1: h chan once was by its hosting company. But I 261 00:18:23,280 --> 00:18:26,320 Speaker 1: think at the very least this suggests that the people 262 00:18:26,400 --> 00:18:29,720 Speaker 1: running h chan and eight con could have at least 263 00:18:29,920 --> 00:18:33,440 Speaker 1: spoken to the people running q map to advise them 264 00:18:33,520 --> 00:18:36,159 Speaker 1: on where to host their site. It will be a 265 00:18:36,200 --> 00:18:40,040 Speaker 1: pretty big coincidence for them all just to gather together naturally. 266 00:18:40,960 --> 00:18:43,720 Speaker 1: To Map, by the way, was a website that aimed 267 00:18:43,720 --> 00:18:46,920 Speaker 1: to link all of the various TUE and on conspiracy 268 00:18:47,000 --> 00:18:50,200 Speaker 1: theories under the same umbrella, with a kind of map, 269 00:18:50,400 --> 00:18:53,560 Speaker 1: a direction telling people how to understand it all and 270 00:18:53,640 --> 00:18:57,159 Speaker 1: see how it all links together. It was absolutely insane, 271 00:18:57,520 --> 00:18:59,480 Speaker 1: but it was a big focus for a while for 272 00:18:59,520 --> 00:19:03,760 Speaker 1: the Q and community. Now, as well as the three 273 00:19:03,800 --> 00:19:09,200 Speaker 1: websites I just mentioned, my mate in I found seven more, 274 00:19:09,240 --> 00:19:13,159 Speaker 1: all on the same server. Altogether, there are ten, but 275 00:19:13,240 --> 00:19:16,399 Speaker 1: let me just read out the ones that might sound familiar. 276 00:19:17,480 --> 00:19:23,320 Speaker 1: A con dot net, a con dot top, qulates dot net, 277 00:19:24,000 --> 00:19:28,960 Speaker 1: q and on bin dot com, and q map dot pub. 278 00:19:29,600 --> 00:19:33,480 Speaker 1: All of those are on the same server. Now, again, 279 00:19:33,760 --> 00:19:38,080 Speaker 1: this is not one concrete evidence, but if you listen 280 00:19:38,160 --> 00:19:41,840 Speaker 1: back to the last six episodes, combine it with everything 281 00:19:41,880 --> 00:19:45,120 Speaker 1: we've learned about the Watkins family and now the fact 282 00:19:45,240 --> 00:19:48,040 Speaker 1: a con is linked on the same server to Big 283 00:19:48,160 --> 00:19:51,400 Speaker 1: Q and on websites, I think we have a very 284 00:19:51,440 --> 00:19:58,280 Speaker 1: strong case here. In the next and final episode of 285 00:19:58,440 --> 00:20:01,480 Speaker 1: Q Clearance will be going know that everything we've learned 286 00:20:01,600 --> 00:20:04,680 Speaker 1: to connect the dots and put the final touches to 287 00:20:04,800 --> 00:20:07,640 Speaker 1: this cum up of our own, the one that shows 288 00:20:07,880 --> 00:20:13,760 Speaker 1: why this is all a hoax. D Clearance is brought 289 00:20:13,800 --> 00:20:18,159 Speaker 1: to you by Radio and Co Daytar Media. I'm Jake Handrahan. 290 00:20:18,480 --> 00:20:22,120 Speaker 1: You can find me online at Jake Underscore hand Rahan. 291 00:20:22,640 --> 00:20:28,280 Speaker 1: That's h a N A h A N. This episode 292 00:20:28,359 --> 00:20:32,160 Speaker 1: was produced by myself with fact checking by Sarah Hightower. 293 00:20:32,880 --> 00:20:35,800 Speaker 1: The music is by Sam Black and the sound levels 294 00:20:35,800 --> 00:20:39,040 Speaker 1: were mixed by Thomas Griffin at Splicing Block
