WEBVTT - 133: Demonic Possession, Summum & Exploding Head Syndrome 0:00:02.080 --> 0:00:06.520 It's one seventeen am in your subconscious and you're listening 0:00:06.559 --> 0:00:17.439 to Night Call. Hello, and welcome back to Night Call, 0:00:17.680 --> 0:00:20.480 a call in show for our dystopian reality. I am 0:00:20.560 --> 0:00:22.840 in l A. I am Tess Lynch, and with me 0:00:22.920 --> 0:00:27.320 are Molly Lambert and Emily Oshida. Today we are going 0:00:27.400 --> 0:00:31.480 to be taking some calls and emails about dreams about pyramids. 0:00:31.800 --> 0:00:35.600 But first let's check in. We are recording on Friday. 0:00:36.040 --> 0:00:38.320 The election has not been called. Maybe by the time 0:00:38.320 --> 0:00:40.120 this is released it will have been. How are you 0:00:40.159 --> 0:00:43.120 guys feeling we should be super specific? We are. We're 0:00:43.159 --> 0:00:47.160 recording it Friday is now ten fifty seven am, specific time, 0:00:47.600 --> 0:00:49.919 because who knows what could happen in the rest of Friday. 0:00:49.920 --> 0:00:52.839 Friday could be an interesting day. You never know. It 0:00:52.840 --> 0:00:56.920 feels like there's three more plot twists. Yeah, I don't know. 0:00:57.040 --> 0:00:59.800 I mean, there's gonna be tons of recounts at this point. 0:00:59.800 --> 0:01:03.040 At looks like or at least one in Georgia probably 0:01:03.920 --> 0:01:07.680 and possibly in Pennsylvania. But I guess we'll see how 0:01:07.680 --> 0:01:10.720 that shakes out. It's just been we've been living in 0:01:10.720 --> 0:01:12.880 a real liminal state for the last few days, and 0:01:12.920 --> 0:01:15.839 I think it's making everybody a little bit crazy right now. 0:01:16.520 --> 0:01:19.679 We were in a liminal state already, so this is 0:01:19.720 --> 0:01:23.520 like a liminal state inside a liminal state. Yeah, real, 0:01:23.959 --> 0:01:27.039 real tenant ours, this is we didn't need to see 0:01:27.040 --> 0:01:31.000 tenant in theaters. We're living it. Emily, you had champagne 0:01:31.680 --> 0:01:36.960 that is waiting or waiting to not be uncorked. This is. Yeah, 0:01:36.959 --> 0:01:41.399 this is my one act of of I guess optimism. 0:01:41.440 --> 0:01:43.759 Even though you know, I could go on and on 0:01:43.800 --> 0:01:49.320 forever about how I'm feeling a very like unsatisfactory, like 0:01:49.440 --> 0:01:51.600 it's not fun, but I do feel a degree of 0:01:51.640 --> 0:01:54.960 indication about how close this ended up being, just because 0:01:55.000 --> 0:01:57.200 of how many people yelled at me about like how 0:01:57.240 --> 0:02:00.200 I was being overly pessimistic about Joe Biden's chances of 0:02:00.240 --> 0:02:03.560 being president because like the pool he's ahead so far 0:02:03.640 --> 0:02:06.040 in the pools and Wisconsin stuff, and I was like, guys, 0:02:06.040 --> 0:02:09.320 why are you looking at polls like we've done this already. 0:02:09.360 --> 0:02:12.639 But I digress. I could, I could, I could yell 0:02:12.680 --> 0:02:16.000 forever about that, but yeah, I did buy a bottle 0:02:16.040 --> 0:02:21.160 of champagne on election day or it's prosecco but whatever, 0:02:21.240 --> 0:02:24.440 same effect, um, And I wasn't gonna spend that much 0:02:24.440 --> 0:02:28.120 money on a Biden presidency honestly, Um, but you know, 0:02:28.280 --> 0:02:30.440 just to have the back of the fridge just in case, 0:02:31.000 --> 0:02:33.760 just in case there's a more like an end of 0:02:33.760 --> 0:02:40.880 presidency too, to celebrate real that austerity. Champagne socialism, yeah, 0:02:41.080 --> 0:02:47.320 prosecco socialism, prossecco socialisms. Okay, Yeah, I feel like I 0:02:47.760 --> 0:02:50.800 it's very strange, obviously everybody kind of feels this way 0:02:50.880 --> 0:02:55.280 to keep yourself from having feelings as you watch something 0:02:55.400 --> 0:02:59.520 that affects you so much. I mean on election night, Um, 0:02:59.560 --> 0:03:02.600 I started it to watch and then got deja vu. 0:03:02.919 --> 0:03:05.120 I was like, why am I putting myself through this? 0:03:05.320 --> 0:03:07.720 Like we won't know tonight. I don't want to have 0:03:07.800 --> 0:03:11.600 that like horrible dip into anxiety and despair and then 0:03:11.639 --> 0:03:14.880 the slow climb back up to like maybe it's okay. 0:03:14.960 --> 0:03:18.760 So I went to bed at like ten, very well rested, 0:03:18.880 --> 0:03:21.080 and it's been happening again and again where I'm like, 0:03:21.080 --> 0:03:23.720 I could stay up and watch this play out, but 0:03:23.800 --> 0:03:26.600 I would really love to just not do that and 0:03:26.680 --> 0:03:31.080 just hope it plays out in our favor. Um, last time, 0:03:31.160 --> 0:03:33.799 four years ago, I made like a huge dinner. I 0:03:33.880 --> 0:03:36.640 maybe even talked about this in the podcast before. But 0:03:36.720 --> 0:03:38.920 I just I made a roast chicken and like all 0:03:39.000 --> 0:03:40.960 of this stuff, and then I threw it in the 0:03:41.000 --> 0:03:44.120 trash when the polls changed, and then I was like 0:03:44.480 --> 0:03:46.560 so upset with myself because I was like, you should 0:03:46.560 --> 0:03:48.760 have just saved the chick, and it became like an 0:03:48.760 --> 0:03:52.200 even a compounding thing of like, oh, I was so 0:03:52.240 --> 0:03:54.520 self indulgent. It's just whatever, I don't want to see 0:03:54.720 --> 0:03:58.480 a great New Yorker short story exactly. Yeah, yeah, the 0:03:58.600 --> 0:04:01.680 roast chicken in the trash. I like wanted to go 0:04:01.760 --> 0:04:05.280 to bed at like six pm, for sure and just 0:04:05.880 --> 0:04:09.840 go into a value of the dolls uh medically induced 0:04:09.880 --> 0:04:12.400 coma for a couple of weeks and come out the 0:04:12.440 --> 0:04:16.120 other side. But that wasn't an option. So I ended 0:04:16.240 --> 0:04:20.680 up going over to a friend's yard and seeing a 0:04:20.720 --> 0:04:23.320 few friends and hanging out together. And that was actually 0:04:23.320 --> 0:04:25.640 the best thing I could have possibly done. I know 0:04:25.720 --> 0:04:28.359 it's not an option for everybody, but just like being 0:04:28.400 --> 0:04:32.160 around other people who are not that excited about a 0:04:32.240 --> 0:04:37.679 Joe Biden presidency, but are you know, nonetheless hopeful for 0:04:37.760 --> 0:04:41.800 a not Trump presidency. I'm not even gonna say that 0:04:41.880 --> 0:04:45.799 I'm not excited for a Joe Biden presidency, just because 0:04:45.880 --> 0:04:49.440 I want to get out of this situation so badly 0:04:49.600 --> 0:04:52.560 that I can't even take any pleasure in like rehashing 0:04:53.000 --> 0:04:55.159 all of the feelings I had during the primary. I 0:04:55.160 --> 0:04:57.600 think it's like we have to kind of get over it. 0:04:57.680 --> 0:05:00.320 And I just feel everybody kind of like way eating 0:05:00.480 --> 0:05:03.480 on on this precipice, being like, I'm not going to 0:05:03.560 --> 0:05:05.320 say any shit about Joe Biden. I'm not going to 0:05:05.360 --> 0:05:08.000 say any about Joe by as soon as they call 0:05:08.080 --> 0:05:10.600 it for him, or you know, maybe as soon as 0:05:10.680 --> 0:05:13.360 he's actually inaugurated. We'll see how the next few months go. 0:05:13.480 --> 0:05:16.440 As far as calling the presidency, I think it's okay 0:05:16.800 --> 0:05:19.560 whatever happens. But I'm just saying like, once it's certain 0:05:19.600 --> 0:05:22.280 that he's going to be our president, if it's certain, 0:05:22.800 --> 0:05:25.120 that's when you just let it all, let it all 0:05:25.160 --> 0:05:28.000 out and be like, Okay, you motherfucker, you are accountable 0:05:28.040 --> 0:05:31.880 to us. He helped you get this stupid job. I 0:05:31.920 --> 0:05:33.560 feel like it's fine to do that now, because I 0:05:33.600 --> 0:05:36.960 feel like anything else is like too superstitious of like 0:05:37.360 --> 0:05:40.240 we can't say anything bad or it'll it'll flip back 0:05:40.279 --> 0:05:44.600 the other way. I do think that it was crazy 0:05:44.839 --> 0:05:47.680 to see the news channels be like we can cut 0:05:47.720 --> 0:05:53.640 Trump's mike. That was the most Bonker's part of yesterday 0:05:53.680 --> 0:05:56.599 to me, um was they all cut his mic during 0:05:56.600 --> 0:05:58.680 the speech because he was saying stuff that's not true 0:05:59.279 --> 0:06:04.320 and realize like they could have done this time, but 0:06:04.440 --> 0:06:09.000 they didn't because they wanted access or ratings or whatever. 0:06:09.640 --> 0:06:12.920 So it's like to say, it's like a bigger version 0:06:13.080 --> 0:06:17.039 of like people you know, turning on high Vey Weinstein 0:06:17.160 --> 0:06:20.160 or something. Once he's like no longer that powerful. It's 0:06:20.200 --> 0:06:23.160 like once the tide starts to turn and and somebody 0:06:23.160 --> 0:06:26.919 doesn't hold this way that they have, and you can 0:06:27.240 --> 0:06:31.200 undermine them in a way that feels more just. There 0:06:31.240 --> 0:06:35.279 was a story about Trump calling Rupert Murdoch because Fox 0:06:35.400 --> 0:06:40.000 called Arizona for Biden and not everybody did, but the 0:06:40.040 --> 0:06:43.400 ape he did, and AP and Fox News did. Yeah, 0:06:43.600 --> 0:06:46.680 And so now people think that Fox might call it 0:06:46.760 --> 0:06:49.520 first because they're just like showing Trump that like they 0:06:49.560 --> 0:06:54.279 have more power than him, they are more important than him, 0:06:54.320 --> 0:06:57.440 which is true, but also it makes me get scared 0:06:57.480 --> 0:07:02.960 about the like super soldier racist Nazi man they're gonna 0:07:03.160 --> 0:07:06.839 or women they're gonna come out with for the selection 0:07:07.400 --> 0:07:11.800 imagine Trump but like competent and like with the facade 0:07:11.880 --> 0:07:14.920 of like a politician would be terrifying. Yeah, Like, in 0:07:15.000 --> 0:07:17.960 many ways Trump is not at all the ideal figurehead 0:07:18.080 --> 0:07:21.800 for this model of Republicanism. And it's like kind of 0:07:21.800 --> 0:07:24.960 been the only thing that's kept King from yeah, because 0:07:25.040 --> 0:07:27.640 he's not a true believer. He like doesn't believe any 0:07:27.680 --> 0:07:30.600 of the stuff I think. Um, not that the other 0:07:30.920 --> 0:07:34.480 aren't hypocrites, but like I for sure don't think he 0:07:34.600 --> 0:07:38.560 actually is pro life. He like clearly isn't a religious person. 0:07:39.600 --> 0:07:42.200 You know. There's a bunch of things. And also like 0:07:42.240 --> 0:07:46.440 I'm afraid for the like everyone being ready to make 0:07:46.520 --> 0:07:48.960 just make him into a clown man, a George W. 0:07:49.080 --> 0:07:51.840 Bush like harmless clown man when he's not president anymore. 0:07:51.960 --> 0:07:53.920 I don't know if I think that will happen. I 0:07:53.960 --> 0:07:56.800 don't either. I think the reason that George W. Bush 0:07:56.840 --> 0:08:00.280 is able to be a toothless clown man now, um 0:08:00.360 --> 0:08:03.080 and people seem to have this collective amnesia about how 0:08:03.120 --> 0:08:07.720 truly damaging and evil his uh presidency was is just 0:08:07.800 --> 0:08:11.200 because there wasn't the same day to day um interfacing 0:08:11.280 --> 0:08:14.000 with it that we have now like every single day 0:08:14.040 --> 0:08:18.760 if you're at all paying attention to any uh current events, 0:08:18.840 --> 0:08:21.320 and not even necessarily on social media, although that's the 0:08:21.360 --> 0:08:24.400 way that most people are experiencing it. Like it's just 0:08:24.520 --> 0:08:27.400 like having like just be having your head and advice 0:08:27.520 --> 0:08:29.600 for the last four years. And I think that that 0:08:30.160 --> 0:08:33.680 I've been thinking a lot about like how that's going 0:08:33.720 --> 0:08:37.880 to affect our generation and the younger generation going forward. 0:08:38.000 --> 0:08:41.440 Like this, this this version of reality that we've been 0:08:41.480 --> 0:08:44.960 living in, unless it just gets worse, whish it could? 0:08:45.720 --> 0:08:49.959 I mean, well, speaking of weird versions of reality, uh 0:08:50.080 --> 0:08:56.320 Emily shared with us very very disturbing TikTok. I mean 0:08:56.440 --> 0:08:59.760 it's one. It's one thing when you like are looking 0:08:59.760 --> 0:09:04.880 around on Twitter on election I perhaps despite your better judgment, 0:09:05.000 --> 0:09:08.240 and and going down threads of protoon people or whatever 0:09:08.960 --> 0:09:13.000 boughts and all of the above, and just seeing you know, 0:09:13.080 --> 0:09:16.640 the maga rhetoric which we've all become so familiar with 0:09:16.720 --> 0:09:18.920 up until now now mixed with like this sort of 0:09:19.000 --> 0:09:23.280 delegitimizing the election. But like I stumbled in a to 0:09:23.360 --> 0:09:31.920 a completely other wing of weird right wingy conservative like 0:09:32.360 --> 0:09:40.839 semi magical thinking religious Twitter, it's right wing, it's right 0:09:40.880 --> 0:09:46.199 wing drama kid yeah, it's like Christian drama kid Twitter. 0:09:47.760 --> 0:09:49.559 Why do you explain what it is? And then we'll 0:09:49.600 --> 0:09:53.320 talk about our reactions to it? Okay, So I and 0:09:53.360 --> 0:09:55.080 the context in which I found this was that it 0:09:55.120 --> 0:10:02.040 was retweeted by Perfume Genius, who I follow great follow also, 0:10:02.120 --> 0:10:07.120 but he retreeted um Andrea Russet, who I guess it's 0:10:07.160 --> 0:10:10.880 like an artist, like a music artist. Um, she's got 0:10:10.960 --> 0:10:14.200 seven point one million followers, so obviously I'm too old 0:10:14.240 --> 0:10:18.320 to know who she is, but my mutual follows are 0:10:18.360 --> 0:10:24.880 include Marshmallow and um. Yeah. Anyway, she retreated this saying 0:10:24.920 --> 0:10:28.880 this this this clip of a TikTok saying, how the 0:10:28.920 --> 0:10:32.360 funk is this real? Um? And this is a TikTok 0:10:32.440 --> 0:10:36.880 from a user that goes by It's Taylor Rousseau and 0:10:36.960 --> 0:10:44.440 it's this incredibly dramatic complete with visual effects, makeup and 0:10:44.559 --> 0:10:47.160 a sound, a very dramatic soundtrack of some kind of 0:10:47.200 --> 0:10:50.520 like very brooding Christian rock. It seems like of her 0:10:50.800 --> 0:10:54.880 enacting in this scenario in which she's being asked to 0:10:55.040 --> 0:10:58.280 bye bye, I guess by the Joe Biden Police State 0:10:58.760 --> 0:11:02.760 to get a a chip implanted in her arm that 0:11:02.800 --> 0:11:06.679 will protect her from covid um, but her knowing that 0:11:06.720 --> 0:11:08.720 this is the mark of the beast as we all 0:11:08.720 --> 0:11:11.360 know obviously of accident, that's going to be the mark 0:11:11.360 --> 0:11:14.800 of the beast. Um, she resisted and is killed um 0:11:14.960 --> 0:11:18.800 by the bidens state for her resistance. And but then 0:11:18.960 --> 0:11:22.920 she goes to heaven and is uh is blessed by 0:11:22.920 --> 0:11:25.199 God for you know, doing the right thing in her 0:11:25.200 --> 0:11:27.840 life on earth. Um. It ends with her in heaven, 0:11:28.400 --> 0:11:31.120 but she also gets like punched by like off screen, 0:11:31.200 --> 0:11:33.240 Like so it's all on this girl's face and so 0:11:33.280 --> 0:11:37.880 it's like her doing this acting and like it's subtitled, 0:11:37.880 --> 0:11:41.960 but she's like lip sinking to the song and getting 0:11:42.000 --> 0:11:44.800 like punched by somebody off screen and blood is coming 0:11:44.800 --> 0:11:47.520 down her face and she's all bruised up because she's 0:11:47.559 --> 0:11:51.480 refusing to get the vaccine. It's like it's kind of 0:11:51.520 --> 0:11:56.920 like the ultimate like stop hitting yourself, like of like 0:11:57.600 --> 0:12:01.840 right wing conspiracy type stuff. It's like it's like truly 0:12:01.880 --> 0:12:04.120 like punching yourself in the face to own the lips 0:12:04.200 --> 0:12:08.720 or something. Um, but like highly dramatized. It's wild. And 0:12:09.600 --> 0:12:14.640 this was posted by Andrew Arrusset and the responses are 0:12:14.760 --> 0:12:19.679 shockingly in support of this narrative um and kind of saying, 0:12:19.679 --> 0:12:24.200 how could you make fun of this this woman's religious beliefs. 0:12:24.240 --> 0:12:27.240 Also we all know that like the vaccine is the 0:12:27.280 --> 0:12:30.600 mark of the beasts, and she has a point and 0:12:30.880 --> 0:12:32.920 you should. People need to be more aware of this. 0:12:33.000 --> 0:12:36.600 And I'll make fun of Taylor Rosseau for this video, 0:12:37.800 --> 0:12:42.280 which just sent me down a wormle. Yeah, that's pretty 0:12:42.320 --> 0:12:46.080 emblematic of a lot of the realizations over the past 0:12:46.120 --> 0:12:50.960 few days in terms of how many people believe crazy, 0:12:51.000 --> 0:12:55.120 awful shit. I will say that I've seen a lot 0:12:55.160 --> 0:12:58.880 of stuff. I only see TikTok through Twitter because we 0:12:59.080 --> 0:13:03.199 are on TikTok. Could be if from the Nightcall Hive 0:13:03.280 --> 0:13:07.000 demands it, but it seems just like overwhelming to me. Still, 0:13:07.040 --> 0:13:09.280 I like having it like curated to me by Twitter 0:13:09.800 --> 0:13:12.120 get the greatest hits. But I've seen all these things 0:13:12.200 --> 0:13:17.280 that are like really theater kitty people doing fake scenarios. 0:13:17.320 --> 0:13:21.200 It's like they're making up dystopian novels and doing acting 0:13:21.200 --> 0:13:23.440 it out. So that's what I thought this was. At first. 0:13:24.160 --> 0:13:26.600 I didn't think it was religious. I thought it was 0:13:26.640 --> 0:13:28.960 but it is that it's but it's based on a 0:13:29.040 --> 0:13:32.840 real conspiracy. Did you guys see, there's like this Michael 0:13:32.880 --> 0:13:38.400 Bay produced movie coming to Netflix soon that is basically Songbird, 0:13:38.480 --> 0:13:43.760 Songbird about It takes place in like the world where 0:13:44.080 --> 0:13:48.160 there's COVID twenty nine or something. It's like the COVID 0:13:48.240 --> 0:13:51.319 has gone up to COVID fifty. He described it as 0:13:51.440 --> 0:13:56.080 Romeo and Juliet but set in a pandemic and it's like, 0:13:56.160 --> 0:14:00.760 it's a love story, guys. It's hot. Archy is starchee 0:14:00.800 --> 0:14:03.680 in it. Oh my god. The people who set out 0:14:03.720 --> 0:14:06.200 the stream to pirate that are doing the lord's work. 0:14:06.200 --> 0:14:07.920 Because I was like, I want to be able to 0:14:08.000 --> 0:14:10.480 dunk on this having seen it, but I refused to 0:14:10.520 --> 0:14:13.439 spend a red scent on watching it. It's gonna be 0:14:13.480 --> 0:14:17.640 a Netflix movie, I think, Oh is it? Yeah? Okay, 0:14:17.720 --> 0:14:20.840 because they were shooting it now and there was a 0:14:20.880 --> 0:14:23.440 do not work order that the union put out because 0:14:23.440 --> 0:14:26.960 they were not i think, observing UM correct protocols for 0:14:27.040 --> 0:14:30.760 cod I'm shocked that this libertarian movie that's all about 0:14:31.000 --> 0:14:33.520 the big government coming to get you and force you 0:14:33.600 --> 0:14:38.720 to take the vaccine, the chip vaccine or whatever wouldn't 0:14:38.720 --> 0:14:43.040 obey a union protocol. Yeah, shocking. It's kind of Taylor 0:14:43.160 --> 0:14:46.680 made like for I don't know, like hunger games fans 0:14:46.800 --> 0:14:49.760 or something, because it's just like, like, what could be 0:14:49.800 --> 0:14:53.920 more ominous than the government putting a chip in you? Uh. 0:14:54.040 --> 0:14:58.000 The whole six six six thing though, is sort of 0:14:58.920 --> 0:15:02.120 like maybe be on my pay grade. It's it's it's 0:15:02.160 --> 0:15:06.160 some revelationship. But like I don't I've been trying to 0:15:06.200 --> 0:15:09.440 read some blogs, and most, like I will say, to 0:15:09.560 --> 0:15:12.240 the credit of a lot of like like Christian blogs 0:15:12.240 --> 0:15:15.840 and stuff and like and like academic some like vaguely 0:15:15.880 --> 0:15:17.920 academic blogs that have been looking at most of them 0:15:17.920 --> 0:15:21.680 are like dispelling this. Um. They're just saying there's nothing, 0:15:21.880 --> 0:15:25.080 there's nothing here. But it's some people are saying that 0:15:25.120 --> 0:15:29.640 this got started with um Kanye West talking about the 0:15:29.840 --> 0:15:32.880 vaccine and and you know, supposing that their why be 0:15:32.960 --> 0:15:34.800 aship that they would put in people's arms, and that 0:15:34.840 --> 0:15:36.680 it would be like them, you know, it would be 0:15:36.720 --> 0:15:40.040 like a mark of evil. And I just think all 0:15:40.080 --> 0:15:43.720 these all these things line up is like fundies and 0:15:44.920 --> 0:15:49.520 um people that don't want big government involved in their 0:15:49.560 --> 0:15:53.560 lives in any way, even when they would be helping you. 0:15:53.960 --> 0:15:57.080 The acting out of the persecution is just so wild 0:15:57.120 --> 0:15:59.640 to me. And I think we like see this, so 0:15:59.720 --> 0:16:02.040 wait times, we're going to see so much more of it, 0:16:02.160 --> 0:16:05.640 especially like if if if the election is called for 0:16:05.720 --> 0:16:09.440 Biden raises why people think they're being persecuted. Yeah, they 0:16:09.480 --> 0:16:13.800 really believe this, and their their speech is always under threat. 0:16:14.000 --> 0:16:17.960 Um when you know, right, obviously this is not the 0:16:18.040 --> 0:16:21.680 case because we hear from them all the time, right. 0:16:21.760 --> 0:16:24.160 And it's also like it's not just on the right, 0:16:24.200 --> 0:16:27.120 Like obviously there's like you know centrists who are like, 0:16:27.920 --> 0:16:31.680 we're being person you know, there's a lot of people 0:16:31.720 --> 0:16:34.760 that are pushing back against progress in various ways or 0:16:34.800 --> 0:16:38.640 being like let's keep it room temperature, folks, which is 0:16:38.680 --> 0:16:41.480 like nothing is ever going to be room temperature again, 0:16:41.840 --> 0:16:47.680 so we gotta go with that instead. Um. Yeah, I 0:16:47.680 --> 0:16:49.160 feel like people always think it's the end of the 0:16:49.160 --> 0:16:52.880 world though, right, I think with more frequency lately, and 0:16:52.920 --> 0:16:56.600 I think with good reason, but a lot of hard 0:16:56.640 --> 0:16:59.720 evidence to support that one as opposed to the COVID 0:17:00.280 --> 0:17:05.520 beast beast conspiracy beast chip. Can't these people find out 0:17:05.520 --> 0:17:09.560 about like Prop twenty two and be like it's a 0:17:09.600 --> 0:17:13.600 conspiracy to like turn workers into machines. That would have 0:17:13.600 --> 0:17:16.560 been the perfect way to direct conspiracy theory energy. It 0:17:16.600 --> 0:17:20.080 was such a lost opportunity, you know, because it's you know, 0:17:20.440 --> 0:17:22.359 when people would point out, like follow the money on 0:17:22.400 --> 0:17:25.919 Prop twenty two, people were convinced it was just that, 0:17:25.960 --> 0:17:30.080 like the ad campaign was too overwhelming, and you know, 0:17:30.280 --> 0:17:33.000 some people just fell for it. But that's also l 0:17:33.080 --> 0:17:38.200 A prop uh California props. So prop talk prop Talk, 0:17:38.400 --> 0:17:42.399 that's a bonus episode. Yes, exactly, that's the l A 0:17:42.480 --> 0:17:47.399 podcast crossover episode. Exactly, Hot prop Talk. We should take 0:17:47.440 --> 0:17:49.080 a break and then when we come back, we will 0:17:49.240 --> 0:18:02.040 have some pyramid pals and dreams. Let's take a nightcall 0:18:02.160 --> 0:18:07.520 about pyramids in Brazil. Timn call. This is Rebecca. It's 0:18:07.520 --> 0:18:12.040 three twenty in some follow Brazil. I'm calling above a 0:18:12.040 --> 0:18:17.879 cult but also pyramids. So um, this is my second 0:18:17.920 --> 0:18:20.480 voice mail because the other one was too long, So 0:18:20.520 --> 0:18:25.240 I'll just say that the planned city brasil Ya, which 0:18:25.320 --> 0:18:29.200 is the cap of Brazil, planned by of Kinye and Meyer, 0:18:29.560 --> 0:18:34.960 the modernist architect has always been intriguing to me because 0:18:36.040 --> 0:18:39.320 I think it's beautiful, but some people say there's some 0:18:39.920 --> 0:18:44.919 weird energy around it because it's made of concrete. In 0:18:45.040 --> 0:18:49.760 all buildings have some sort of triangle base and the 0:18:49.960 --> 0:18:53.840 entire city is planned to be without any corners, so 0:18:53.960 --> 0:18:58.119 everything is kind of rounded, and if you look from above, 0:18:58.520 --> 0:19:01.840 it's shaped as an airplane. So all of this is 0:19:01.880 --> 0:19:09.639 alrighty creepy. But I was browsing the International Film Festival 0:19:09.680 --> 0:19:13.800 of from Polo Catawang and I found a documentary that 0:19:13.960 --> 0:19:21.760 is about spirituality around some around Brazilian and I found 0:19:21.760 --> 0:19:27.720 out about this cult called Down Valley and it's really fascinating. 0:19:27.920 --> 0:19:33.920 It was founded by a medium in this n Sason. 0:19:34.520 --> 0:19:38.359 She was called Tiernava and the call is a mix 0:19:38.720 --> 0:19:47.280 of spirituality and Egyptian religion like deities. And I don't 0:19:47.280 --> 0:19:51.919 know much about it. I'm singing it the English uh 0:19:52.080 --> 0:19:55.920 Wikipedia page for it. I found it fascinating. The where 0:19:56.040 --> 0:20:02.199 like very very colorful clothes and they do kind of 0:20:02.280 --> 0:20:08.200 like um, say, carreographs ritual. I really think you guys 0:20:08.240 --> 0:20:10.760 should look into it. I hope you have a good night. 0:20:11.000 --> 0:20:13.320 By thank you for that night call all the way 0:20:13.320 --> 0:20:16.520 from Brazil. That was very exciting. It's always really fun 0:20:16.600 --> 0:20:20.120 to hear from our our listeners who are not neighbors 0:20:20.359 --> 0:20:23.320 and then call come to Brazil. We came to Brazil. 0:20:23.840 --> 0:20:28.520 I am looking at a National Geographic article about this 0:20:28.920 --> 0:20:33.960 about don Valley this cult. Um. I weirdly know a 0:20:34.040 --> 0:20:38.399 lot about Brazilia because I had a boyfriend who was 0:20:38.440 --> 0:20:43.880 really obsessed with it because it is so weird and 0:20:44.240 --> 0:20:48.080 it is very beautiful. Brazilia looks rad and it is 0:20:48.119 --> 0:20:51.919 also very scary. Yeah, he ended up going there. Eventually, 0:20:52.480 --> 0:20:58.359 he made a pilgrimage to Brazilia. UM And apparently now 0:20:58.640 --> 0:21:02.400 it is we heard or not weird. I mean dystopian 0:21:02.440 --> 0:21:05.240 in the way that everything is dystopian in that it's 0:21:05.280 --> 0:21:08.719 like this dream city, but it's kind of, you know, 0:21:09.480 --> 0:21:14.720 become less shiny as time has passed. And I believe 0:21:14.760 --> 0:21:17.879 they have a homelessness epidemic in Brazil as they do 0:21:17.960 --> 0:21:21.200 everywhere else. So there are I think encampments like around 0:21:21.240 --> 0:21:24.960 some of these crazy buildings, which you know, just that 0:21:25.080 --> 0:21:27.440 kind of thing, like in downtown l A, where there's 0:21:27.440 --> 0:21:30.640 like these huge, you know, modern towers and nobody living 0:21:30.640 --> 0:21:33.040 in them and then people living on the streets below them. 0:21:33.080 --> 0:21:41.800 It's just, uh feels very dystopian, uh futuristic, blade runnery. 0:21:42.480 --> 0:21:44.840 So I'm not surprised that new age people also are 0:21:44.880 --> 0:21:48.240 into this city because it has no corners, but it 0:21:48.320 --> 0:21:51.480 just fits in with our general um buildings in more 0:21:51.520 --> 0:21:59.280 interesting shapes than squares are deep dive into the overlooked 0:21:59.680 --> 0:22:03.480 bill things in other shapes than squares. Pyramid Palace has 0:22:03.520 --> 0:22:06.720 been a huge hit, and we had no idea when 0:22:06.760 --> 0:22:09.000 we started, but we've all had like a lifelong interest 0:22:09.040 --> 0:22:15.560 in pyramids. I wanted to be an Egyptologist for a while. Um. 0:22:15.600 --> 0:22:19.080 I took in egyptology class in college that was so 0:22:19.200 --> 0:22:25.440 interesting that I, um almost failed. I had to drop. Well, 0:22:25.560 --> 0:22:28.920 it was so interesting that you almost failed, Yes, because 0:22:28.960 --> 0:22:33.240 like I don't have a brain for dates at all 0:22:33.720 --> 0:22:38.080 or maps, so I kept like failing all the quizzes 0:22:38.119 --> 0:22:41.480 because they were like, what, you know, draw a map 0:22:41.600 --> 0:22:44.400 of Egypt in the year, in this year, this era, 0:22:44.840 --> 0:22:47.680 you know, and I could not do that. But everything 0:22:47.720 --> 0:22:50.639 I learned in the class was like incredibly fascinating. And 0:22:50.640 --> 0:22:53.880 it also ended up being about the history of Egyptology 0:22:53.920 --> 0:22:58.280 and you know, sort of the great era of looting 0:22:58.400 --> 0:23:01.159 by the British Museum and like what's happening now with 0:23:01.200 --> 0:23:04.560 that stuff, for artifacts are being repatriated back to where 0:23:04.560 --> 0:23:08.320 they belong in Egypt. Yeah, um, well, just to get 0:23:08.359 --> 0:23:10.840 back to the Valley of the Don for a bit. 0:23:10.880 --> 0:23:14.399 I would highly recommend looking this up just strictly for 0:23:14.480 --> 0:23:20.239 like style points, because the outfits that the practitioners wear 0:23:20.280 --> 0:23:24.480 when they're doing their ceremonies are like very rare. They 0:23:24.520 --> 0:23:30.240 look very much like costumes from a Yodorowski film or 0:23:30.280 --> 0:23:34.480 something very like colorful, blocky, kind of like god spellish. 0:23:35.160 --> 0:23:38.840 That's also what Brazilia feels like to me. It just 0:23:38.920 --> 0:23:42.560 feels like, yeah, like it's built to be the backdrop, 0:23:43.000 --> 0:23:49.920 like like alphabel. Yeah, and their beliefs seem very complicated, 0:23:49.960 --> 0:23:52.560 but one of them, I I like the kind of 0:23:52.840 --> 0:23:56.359 um balancing out of of of a cult to beliefs 0:23:56.400 --> 0:24:02.840 that rather than say, Egypt being built by Aliens, which 0:24:03.240 --> 0:24:08.280 as we've I think discussed, is basically racist, uh, as 0:24:08.320 --> 0:24:12.200 a conspiracy theorist conspiracy theories go, uh, they just believe 0:24:12.280 --> 0:24:16.560 that Jesus was an alien, which I'm into that one. 0:24:17.480 --> 0:24:21.359 I'm super into that. There's a lot of Jesus is 0:24:21.400 --> 0:24:23.920 an alien And somebody else wrote about the re aliens 0:24:24.000 --> 0:24:28.600 and we'll get into them sometime soon, but I totally 0:24:28.640 --> 0:24:31.359 get down with the Jesus was an alien. That makes 0:24:31.440 --> 0:24:35.000 Jesus makes so much sense. Yeah, he's just Superman then, 0:24:35.359 --> 0:24:38.359 which is fine. Like that that all that's like the 0:24:38.480 --> 0:24:44.359 joining of of of superhero weirdness and religious weirdness. That 0:24:44.640 --> 0:24:50.280 just yeah to taste that taste fine together. Yeah, please 0:24:50.280 --> 0:24:53.159 look up the Temple of Dawn Valley because it is 0:24:53.200 --> 0:24:57.639 also very Yodorowski. It is a colorful labyrinth. Yeah, the 0:24:57.720 --> 0:25:00.960 colors are great, like because Brazili. It is also pretty 0:25:01.000 --> 0:25:03.800 like monochrome, um, which is like one of the reasons 0:25:03.840 --> 0:25:05.520 I think it looks so pretty, especially now that it's 0:25:05.520 --> 0:25:07.840 getting old and like something. They're like cracks and a 0:25:07.840 --> 0:25:11.120 lot of the concrete structures and like moss and kind 0:25:11.160 --> 0:25:13.840 of where on them. Like I think it looks really 0:25:14.400 --> 0:25:21.639 it's it's aging very well, um from a purely aesthetic standpoint. Um. 0:25:21.800 --> 0:25:26.920 But the Don Valley stuff is like mega color pops, 0:25:27.480 --> 0:25:32.040 like just very polyphonic spree. Uh. Yeah. And this religion 0:25:32.119 --> 0:25:35.160 was started in nineteen sixty nine and you can tell 0:25:37.440 --> 0:25:39.800 that's where it stays. And I like that it was 0:25:39.840 --> 0:25:45.000 started by Tianieva, was an ex truck driver. That's how 0:25:45.080 --> 0:25:49.520 shoes described really nice hot tip on the Pyramid Palace. 0:25:49.560 --> 0:25:52.600
