A story of morals. 346 00:26:39,119 --> 00:26:44,400 Speaker 1: I would say, well, what do you think Samuel learned? No, um, 347 00:26:46,200 --> 00:26:49,760 Speaker 1: don't don't spit in the bag. That's what I learned. 348 00:26:49,960 --> 00:26:53,159 Speaker 1: That's what I learned. That was one of my favorite parts. Actually, 349 00:26:53,320 --> 00:26:55,639 Speaker 1: I think it's a great part. But don't spit in 350 00:26:55,680 --> 00:26:57,800 Speaker 1: the bag. If a creeper runs up on you and 351 00:26:57,880 --> 00:27:01,920 Speaker 1: you saw you when no one's looking, if someone asked 352 00:27:01,960 --> 00:27:04,000 Speaker 1: me to do it, I would. I would probably do it. 353 00:27:04,080 --> 00:27:06,160 Speaker 1: When do you? Yeah, what's when are you gonna get 354 00:27:06,160 --> 00:27:10,760 Speaker 1: that opportunity? Yeah? You gotta lived. But he was so forceful, 355 00:27:10,840 --> 00:27:14,359 Speaker 1: like spit in the back. He obviously wanted something right, 356 00:27:14,480 --> 00:27:17,080 Speaker 1: something maybe even more than spit. And we just talked 357 00:27:17,080 --> 00:27:20,320 Speaker 1: about d n A right, that's true. That's point point 358 00:27:20,359 --> 00:27:24,280 Speaker 1: that you make. Come on, well, well you know, I 359 00:27:24,880 --> 00:27:26,920 Speaker 1: don't know if he learns anything. We don't know what 360 00:27:27,040 --> 00:27:29,720 Speaker 1: he decides to do. That's true. So I guess the 361 00:27:29,800 --> 00:27:31,920 Speaker 1: question for the listeners is what would you decide to 362 00:27:32,040 --> 00:27:36,000 Speaker 1: do if you were if you were somehow in that situation, Well, 363 00:27:36,080 --> 00:27:40,560 Speaker 1: to save your daughter? I mean I think unfortunately I 364 00:27:40,640 --> 00:27:43,760 Speaker 1: know what I would do. Spit in the bag, wouldn't you. 365 00:27:44,040 --> 00:27:46,360 Speaker 1: I've definitely spit in the bag, and I would say, 366 00:27:46,400 --> 00:27:49,840 Speaker 1: welcome to Beaselsberger's pull on through to the second window 367 00:27:49,960 --> 00:27:52,000 Speaker 1: and you know, see what happens, although it would probably 368 00:27:52,080 --> 00:27:54,280 Speaker 1: end up being you know, a parent there's got it. 369 00:27:54,320 --> 00:27:58,919 Speaker 1: You know, there's always a twist. Yeah, exactly, Very oh, Henry, 370 00:27:59,840 --> 00:28:01,280 Speaker 1: I think this may be one of the first times 371 00:28:01,320 --> 00:28:05,399 Speaker 1: you played a villain. Yeah. I was feeling it. I 372 00:28:05,560 --> 00:28:09,119 Speaker 1: was enjoying myself. Although you know, my favorite part is 373 00:28:09,200 --> 00:28:12,680 Speaker 1: when Alex was on this very mike and actually was 374 00:28:12,760 --> 00:28:16,080 Speaker 1: on our show. I think that that made me really happy. Yeah, 375 00:28:16,840 --> 00:28:19,400 Speaker 1: and we're doing a bang up job. No less, Yeah, yeah, 376 00:28:19,560 --> 00:28:24,119 Speaker 1: no less. And most importantly, we hope that you enjoyed 377 00:28:24,200 --> 00:28:27,800 Speaker 1: the show at least a fraction as much as we 378 00:28:28,160 --> 00:28:31,960 Speaker 1: enjoyed making it. And I want to say, Noel, no 379 00:28:32,080 --> 00:28:35,840 Speaker 1: offense to anyone, but I really liked your assistant manager. Yeah, dude, 380 00:28:36,280 --> 00:28:39,640 Speaker 1: I really try to embody the role, uh, you know, 381 00:28:40,200 --> 00:28:44,440 Speaker 1: really live out my cantankerous curmudgeon lee old man kind 382 00:28:44,480 --> 00:28:47,880 Speaker 1: of like dream. It's just such a it's just such 383 00:28:47,960 --> 00:28:52,040 Speaker 1: a perfect jerk line for someone to be annoyed by 384 00:28:52,080 --> 00:28:57,120 Speaker 1: having said yeah twice, I said, yeah, but it was 385 00:28:57,240 --> 00:28:59,720 Speaker 1: the it was the were the gold coins or silver 386 00:29:01,240 --> 00:29:04,760 Speaker 1: silver dollars from eighteen o four actually worth a quite 387 00:29:04,800 --> 00:29:09,800 Speaker 1: a bit of money. It's silver dollars. And and of course, 388 00:29:10,040 --> 00:29:13,360 Speaker 1: uh this, this sort of stuff would not happen without 389 00:29:13,440 --> 00:29:16,560 Speaker 1: the most important part of this show, which is you, 390 00:29:17,320 --> 00:29:23,400 Speaker 1: not general you, specifically you listening to this now and yes, 391 00:29:24,080 --> 00:29:29,840 Speaker 1: also specifically you, which reminds us it's time for chat 392 00:29:30,080 --> 00:29:37,520 Speaker 1: at corners. Our first message comes from Luke, who says, 393 00:29:37,880 --> 00:29:41,280 Speaker 1: I live near the beautiful Ocala, Florida, which for years 394 00:29:41,320 --> 00:29:44,720 Speaker 1: has been a prime spot for rainbow gatherings. Oh boy, 395 00:29:44,800 --> 00:29:47,920 Speaker 1: you guys, Oh here we go, all right, saying every 396 00:29:48,000 --> 00:29:50,400 Speaker 1: February people come from all over the US to meet 397 00:29:50,440 --> 00:29:53,840 Speaker 1: there in the National Forest on Valentine's Day. The annual 398 00:29:54,000 --> 00:29:57,040 Speaker 1: Rainbow Gathering is in full swing to welcome people home 399 00:29:57,520 --> 00:30:01,240 Speaker 1: to pray, chant and send positive vibes towards the mutual 400 00:30:01,360 --> 00:30:04,840 Speaker 1: goal of world peace. Now that is a great goal, 401 00:30:05,000 --> 00:30:09,560 Speaker 1: I think, I mean all the always says you're correcting, 402 00:30:09,600 --> 00:30:12,240 Speaker 1: assuming there's no background checks to join up on the crew, 403 00:30:12,480 --> 00:30:15,200 Speaker 1: And there are many runaway street kids and people with 404 00:30:15,320 --> 00:30:17,960 Speaker 1: warrants hanging out him on the ranks. There's also a 405 00:30:18,040 --> 00:30:20,760 Speaker 1: bunch of not safe for work nudity, but in my 406 00:30:20,880 --> 00:30:24,959 Speaker 1: experience it's mostly been old hippies and young feral children 407 00:30:25,240 --> 00:30:31,520 Speaker 1: running around. Oh, feral children, fair children. When I last 408 00:30:31,560 --> 00:30:34,400 Speaker 1: attended to gathering, my then girlfriend now wife and I 409 00:30:34,600 --> 00:30:37,960 Speaker 1: brought oranges as a gift to share with those we 410 00:30:38,080 --> 00:30:40,600 Speaker 1: came in contact with. The oranges went quick and we 411 00:30:40,720 --> 00:30:44,640 Speaker 1: were hugged almost every one hundred feet. Everyone we encountered 412 00:30:44,720 --> 00:30:47,800 Speaker 1: was extremely friendly and welcoming, but being an avid listener 413 00:30:47,800 --> 00:30:50,480 Speaker 1: of the show, I'm suspicious of everyone and cautious to 414 00:30:50,600 --> 00:30:54,320 Speaker 1: not eat anything offered to me. But you know, Luke 415 00:30:54,400 --> 00:30:59,760 Speaker 1: doesn't mind offering out oranges. Well, he does, but the 416 00:30:59,800 --> 00:31:01,960 Speaker 1: other people don't. I love the show, and I found 417 00:31:01,960 --> 00:31:04,680 Speaker 1: the Mars thought experiment very interesting. I couldn't help thinking 418 00:31:05,480 --> 00:31:08,080 Speaker 1: that any colonization attempts on Mars would be similar to 419 00:31:08,280 --> 00:31:12,600 Speaker 1: the PlayStation two game Red Faction, which is a fantastic game, Luke, 420 00:31:13,160 --> 00:31:16,240 Speaker 1: and inevitably there would be no equal treatment, just the 421 00:31:16,320 --> 00:31:18,360 Speaker 1: ruling class and the working class on the planet who 422 00:31:18,360 --> 00:31:21,360 Speaker 1: would find out they are seen as expendable stepping stones 423 00:31:21,520 --> 00:31:24,760 Speaker 1: for the rich. Keep up the great work, Luke. If 424 00:31:24,840 --> 00:31:26,760 Speaker 1: you guys, have you guys ever heard of Red Faction? 425 00:31:26,880 --> 00:31:29,080 Speaker 1: Like Red Faction back in the day. Cool. So it's 426 00:31:29,080 --> 00:31:31,240 Speaker 1: like a sandbox he kind of game, right, yes, exactly, 427 00:31:31,280 --> 00:31:33,560 Speaker 1: and it's based on destruction of buildings. But the whole 428 00:31:33,640 --> 00:31:35,960 Speaker 1: idea of the plot is that on Mars you've basically 429 00:31:36,040 --> 00:31:39,880 Speaker 1: got miners and scrappers and then the wealthy people that 430 00:31:40,080 --> 00:31:43,440 Speaker 1: control the minds and the scrappings. Well, for our next 431 00:31:43,480 --> 00:31:46,320 Speaker 1: shout out, I have one from Kent. Maybe it's ken 432 00:31:46,480 --> 00:31:48,160 Speaker 1: f It's all there's no space, so I'm gonna call 433 00:31:48,240 --> 00:31:50,800 Speaker 1: him Kent. Let's see how he signed it. Now it's 434 00:31:50,880 --> 00:31:55,960 Speaker 1: ken Man to let down Apollo eleven and Yugoslavian engineers 435 00:31:55,960 --> 00:31:58,680 Speaker 1: as the subject. Guys, I just watched Houston We have 436 00:31:58,720 --> 00:32:01,440 Speaker 1: a Problem and never knew there was a conspiracy theory 437 00:32:01,520 --> 00:32:04,720 Speaker 1: regarding the Apollo program and Yugoslavia. The comment that a 438 00:32:04,800 --> 00:32:07,440 Speaker 1: debt was owed to the US, with repayment being tied 439 00:32:07,480 --> 00:32:11,040 Speaker 1: to the infamous Ugo automobile was the icing on the cake. 440 00:32:11,320 --> 00:32:14,080 Speaker 1: Have you done or could you investigate this odd claim 441 00:32:14,160 --> 00:32:17,560 Speaker 1: in your typical deep dive fashion? The movie seemed complete, However, 442 00:32:17,560 --> 00:32:20,600 Speaker 1: I suspect there is more to the story. Great show, 443 00:32:20,680 --> 00:32:24,960 Speaker 1: Thanks for years of interesting discussions. Can that's cool? Yeah? 444 00:32:25,240 --> 00:32:27,000 Speaker 1: The ugo in and of itself is a is a 445 00:32:27,080 --> 00:32:31,600 Speaker 1: neat story, right then? Yeah, the the ugo of the vehicle, 446 00:32:31,800 --> 00:32:34,600 Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, yeah, we have a if you're interested in 447 00:32:34,720 --> 00:32:36,440 Speaker 1: were the one that exploded when you hit it or 448 00:32:36,480 --> 00:32:38,600 Speaker 1: something like that, like it was because of the location 449 00:32:38,680 --> 00:32:41,480 Speaker 1: of the engine or something, location of the gas tank. 450 00:32:42,000 --> 00:32:45,120 Speaker 1: So there maybe a couple of those. Yeah. So you 451 00:32:45,280 --> 00:32:49,120 Speaker 1: can learn more about the difficulties with some of the 452 00:32:49,200 --> 00:32:51,920 Speaker 1: cars produced under the communist era if you go to 453 00:32:52,000 --> 00:32:55,160 Speaker 1: car stuff and check out uh, I think cars behind 454 00:32:55,240 --> 00:32:59,719 Speaker 1: the Iron Curtain. Yeah, Iron curtain cars, uh, and they 455 00:32:59,800 --> 00:33:03,440 Speaker 1: have the I have some pretty interesting stuff there. But 456 00:33:04,400 --> 00:33:07,640 Speaker 1: I will say not every not every car they put 457 00:33:07,960 --> 00:33:10,040 Speaker 1: put out during that era was bad. Well, I want 458 00:33:10,080 --> 00:33:13,880 Speaker 1: to know what the connection is to Apollo eleven. So yeah, 459 00:33:13,880 --> 00:33:16,160 Speaker 1: we gotta check out this movie and maybe we can 460 00:33:16,360 --> 00:33:18,480 Speaker 1: I don't know, I mean, we can doing these interviews lately. 461 00:33:18,520 --> 00:33:20,600 Speaker 1: We can get the filmmaker.

But there's a guy who lands 489 00:34:43,360 --> 00:34:45,960 Speaker 1: in a Japanese airport. He has a passport that no 490 00:34:46,120 --> 00:34:50,640 Speaker 1: one recognizes. He claims he's from a country called to Read, 491 00:34:51,440 --> 00:34:54,360 Speaker 1: and all of his according to the story, all of 492 00:34:54,520 --> 00:35:00,320 Speaker 1: his um stuff looks real, and the people and hooundered 493 00:35:00,440 --> 00:35:03,800 Speaker 1: him began to think that perhaps he was from a 494 00:35:03,920 --> 00:35:07,719 Speaker 1: parallel dimension or another universe just slightly tilted to the 495 00:35:07,840 --> 00:35:13,280 Speaker 1: left of our own. But there is no confirmed primary 496 00:35:13,360 --> 00:35:17,279 Speaker 1: source of this, there's no It's kind of like Barren Stein, 497 00:35:17,440 --> 00:35:21,800 Speaker 1: Barren Stein Bears, you know, Barren stain um. But it 498 00:35:22,000 --> 00:35:25,239 Speaker 1: is it is interesting. Michael. I'm gonna dig in and 499 00:35:25,400 --> 00:35:27,279 Speaker 1: see if I can just send you the link to 500 00:35:27,400 --> 00:35:32,600 Speaker 1: our video, maybe the one about mysterious disappearances.

It just gets very dark, you know, like 504 00:35:42,320 --> 00:35:46,520 Speaker 1: Eliza Lamb. That that bothered me, That mean more so 505 00:35:46,680 --> 00:35:49,160 Speaker 1: than I think almost any we've done, just because it 506 00:35:49,280 --> 00:35:52,200 Speaker 1: was so fresh kind of and like the evidence that's 507 00:35:52,200 --> 00:35:56,759 Speaker 1: out there, like that video is just very chilling. That 508 00:35:56,880 --> 00:35:59,000 Speaker 1: was That was an interesting one. But then you know, 509 00:35:59,000 --> 00:36:01,040 Speaker 1: I guess we did that the want the National Parks 510 00:36:01,160 --> 00:36:05,560 Speaker 1: Disappearance one which is dark as well. Um, but yeah, 511 00:36:05,719 --> 00:36:09,399 Speaker 1: I think anytime you're talking about people just vanishing into 512 00:36:09,440 --> 00:36:12,719 Speaker 1: thin air, it's always a little bit disturbing.
