I bet 14 00:01:16,440 --> 00:01:20,720 Speaker 1: you would, because you know, for thirty years I've been 15 00:01:20,760 --> 00:01:27,600 Speaker 1: traveling the world investigating weird, amazing stuff, collecting samples, taking 16 00:01:27,640 --> 00:01:31,560 Speaker 1: them back to the lab, doing tests and experiments. I 17 00:01:31,680 --> 00:01:36,320 Speaker 1: even had a museum for ten years called the Asheville 18 00:01:36,480 --> 00:01:42,760 Speaker 1: Mystery Museum, and Asheville, North Carolina, my hometown. And of 19 00:01:42,800 --> 00:01:46,200 Speaker 1: course I live in Las Vegas now, and uh, the 20 00:01:46,200 --> 00:01:49,040 Speaker 1: only reason that I no longer have. The museum is 21 00:01:49,080 --> 00:01:52,960 Speaker 1: because it was housed in the basement of the Asheville 22 00:01:53,000 --> 00:01:58,120 Speaker 1: Masonic Temple, a very old, grand building, but it's gotten 23 00:01:58,320 --> 00:02:02,840 Speaker 1: so old that the basement was just perfect for the museum. 24 00:02:02,880 --> 00:02:06,160 Speaker 1: It's like a dungeon down there. But there's a lot 25 00:02:06,640 --> 00:02:09,919 Speaker 1: of precipitation in Asheville, a lot of rain, and they 26 00:02:09,919 --> 00:02:14,600 Speaker 1: started having problems with the basement flooding, and I was 27 00:02:14,680 --> 00:02:17,720 Speaker 1: losing some of my stuff in the basement, and so 28 00:02:17,800 --> 00:02:20,440 Speaker 1: finally the board said, we have got to do some 29 00:02:20,600 --> 00:02:25,280 Speaker 1: major renovations. This could take years to complete, and so 30 00:02:26,240 --> 00:02:31,000 Speaker 1: in January of twenty h I will be forever indebted 31 00:02:31,960 --> 00:02:35,079 Speaker 1: to to so many friends in Asheville who went there 32 00:02:35,080 --> 00:02:39,080 Speaker 1: and helped move my museum out of the building. I 33 00:02:39,120 --> 00:02:41,240 Speaker 1: could not be there in person because I was working 34 00:02:41,280 --> 00:02:46,440 Speaker 1: on a TV program here in Vegas, and so this show, 35 00:02:46,520 --> 00:02:48,919 Speaker 1: I guess it's a bit of a tease because none 36 00:02:48,960 --> 00:02:51,040 Speaker 1: of the things I'm going to tell you about are 37 00:02:51,120 --> 00:02:55,280 Speaker 1: all display right now. They are either in some special 38 00:02:55,440 --> 00:02:59,080 Speaker 1: storage units that I have strewn around the country that 39 00:02:59,120 --> 00:03:02,600 Speaker 1: our climate can rolled and perfect for various things, or 40 00:03:02,639 --> 00:03:06,360 Speaker 1: I have some here in my home that I see 41 00:03:06,400 --> 00:03:10,320 Speaker 1: and interact with every day. So I'm just gonna kind 42 00:03:10,320 --> 00:03:13,440 Speaker 1: of ramble on here and go down the list and 43 00:03:13,480 --> 00:03:16,680 Speaker 1: tell you about some of the things that I have, 44 00:03:17,560 --> 00:03:20,639 Speaker 1: and uh, I'm I'm not gonna tell you everything. I'll 45 00:03:20,680 --> 00:03:23,360 Speaker 1: still keep some surprises, and over the years I have 46 00:03:23,560 --> 00:03:27,880 Speaker 1: sold some really interesting pieces to raise money for fundraisers 47 00:03:27,880 --> 00:03:30,240 Speaker 1: and that kind of thing. But it's a shame if 48 00:03:30,280 --> 00:03:32,720 Speaker 1: you didn't get to see the museum while it was up. 49 00:03:32,760 --> 00:03:37,080 Speaker 1: You know, the Asheville Masonic Temple was already a very 50 00:03:37,160 --> 00:03:40,840 Speaker 1: haunted building long before I moved my stuff in there. 51 00:03:41,240 --> 00:03:46,600 Speaker 1: It was a temporary emergency ward when the Spanish influenza 52 00:03:46,680 --> 00:03:49,800 Speaker 1: hit around nineteen eighteen, and we don't know how many 53 00:03:49,800 --> 00:03:52,560 Speaker 1: people died in the building, but over the years there 54 00:03:52,600 --> 00:03:55,640 Speaker 1: were plenty of stories of people seeing apparitions in their 55 00:03:56,240 --> 00:03:58,720 Speaker 1: Uh Lauren saw shadow person and they're a friend of 56 00:03:58,720 --> 00:04:02,160 Speaker 1: mine named Lewis saw. In the basement. Doors would have 57 00:04:02,240 --> 00:04:05,120 Speaker 1: constantly open and closed. I would be down there in 58 00:04:05,120 --> 00:04:08,240 Speaker 1: that basement, sometimes by myself at night, and this is 59 00:04:08,280 --> 00:04:12,000 Speaker 1: a big, big empty building, you know, it's several stories tall, 60 00:04:13,240 --> 00:04:16,320 Speaker 1: and at two o'clock in the morning, it would sound 61 00:04:16,360 --> 00:04:19,279 Speaker 1: just like somebody took their fist and went just pounded 62 00:04:19,360 --> 00:04:22,279 Speaker 1: on the door to the museum, and I would jump 63 00:04:22,400 --> 00:04:24,960 Speaker 1: out of my skin and run over there and open 64 00:04:25,000 --> 00:04:28,000 Speaker 1: the door, and there would be nobody around, no evidence 65 00:04:28,000 --> 00:04:33,040 Speaker 1: of anybody in the building. And so my stuff was 66 00:04:33,080 --> 00:04:36,240 Speaker 1: already often kind of haunted stuff. But it's even more 67 00:04:36,320 --> 00:04:40,760 Speaker 1: haunted now, I think, because for so many years it 68 00:04:40,920 --> 00:04:45,240 Speaker 1: sat at this haunted property. And in fact, I want 69 00:04:45,279 --> 00:04:48,680 Speaker 1: to tell you a really interesting story about the Hope 70 00:04:49,000 --> 00:04:53,000 Speaker 1: Diamond that I bet you've never heard before. And I've 71 00:04:53,040 --> 00:04:55,520 Speaker 1: been looking for an excuse to tell you this story 72 00:04:55,560 --> 00:04:58,279 Speaker 1: for a while, and this is a good time to 73 00:04:58,320 --> 00:05:00,599 Speaker 1: bring it up as I reflect on the things that 74 00:05:00,720 --> 00:05:05,640 Speaker 1: I have in my collection. So, the largest mass murder 75 00:05:05,760 --> 00:05:09,000 Speaker 1: killing spree in the history of Asheville, North Carolina, which 76 00:05:09,000 --> 00:05:11,280 Speaker 1: is up in the mountains, the Blue Ridge Mountains in 77 00:05:11,320 --> 00:05:13,240 Speaker 1: the western part of the state. That's where you find 78 00:05:13,240 --> 00:05:17,279 Speaker 1: the Bill Moore House and the Grove Park in um. 79 00:05:17,360 --> 00:05:20,760 Speaker 1: The largest killing spree took place there in nineteen oh six, 80 00:05:20,960 --> 00:05:25,800 Speaker 1: known as the Will Harris murders, and Will hear Us 81 00:05:26,320 --> 00:05:31,320 Speaker 1: was a man who escaped from prison and with just 82 00:05:31,400 --> 00:05:34,760 Speaker 1: a whole long list, the whole laundry list of of 83 00:05:34,880 --> 00:05:38,839 Speaker 1: charges along rap sheet, and he he went to Asheville, 84 00:05:39,040 --> 00:05:41,400 Speaker 1: but I think he escaped from near Charlotte and he 85 00:05:41,400 --> 00:05:43,880 Speaker 1: went to Asheville because he was looking for an old 86 00:05:43,920 --> 00:05:47,520 Speaker 1: girlfriend and everybody was sort of trying to hide her 87 00:05:47,600 --> 00:05:50,040 Speaker 1: from him. And it got laid at night, and he 88 00:05:50,120 --> 00:05:53,440 Speaker 1: got ticked off, and he was drinking whiskey, and he 89 00:05:53,520 --> 00:05:55,520 Speaker 1: ended up buying a rifle and the next thing you know, 90 00:05:55,640 --> 00:05:58,320 Speaker 1: he went on a shooting rampage around town, killed a 91 00:05:58,360 --> 00:06:02,039 Speaker 1: couple of police officers, a number of civilians. But the 92 00:06:02,080 --> 00:06:06,240 Speaker 1: reason I'm telling you this story is when he started 93 00:06:06,320 --> 00:06:11,040 Speaker 1: his rampage, which I think he was around like pm uh, 94 00:06:11,080 --> 00:06:14,440 Speaker 1: he was walking down one of the main streets there 95 00:06:14,480 --> 00:06:17,680 Speaker 1: in downtown Asheville. We now call it Built Moore Avenue, 96 00:06:18,480 --> 00:06:22,480 Speaker 1: and across the street from him there was this popular 97 00:06:23,160 --> 00:06:26,479 Speaker 1: pub that was, you know, at least two or three 98 00:06:26,520 --> 00:06:31,000 Speaker 1: stories tall, and there was a judge who liked to 99 00:06:31,640 --> 00:06:35,960 Speaker 1: spend time at that pub. His name was Spears Reynolds, 100 00:06:36,920 --> 00:06:40,279 Speaker 1: and Spears Reynolds always carried a little pistol in his 101 00:06:40,400 --> 00:06:44,159 Speaker 1: vest pocket. And so when the shooting erupted on the street, 102 00:06:45,279 --> 00:06:49,120 Speaker 1: because really Will Harris was sort of shooting it, you know, 103 00:06:49,200 --> 00:06:54,400 Speaker 1: just random people half the time Judge Spears Reynolds, he 104 00:06:54,520 --> 00:06:57,840 Speaker 1: rushed out and he saw an opportunity to use this pistol, 105 00:06:57,839 --> 00:07:01,240 Speaker 1: and he took it out, and he and Will Harris 106 00:07:01,240 --> 00:07:07,000 Speaker 1: started exchanging gunfire back and forth across the street, and 107 00:07:07,120 --> 00:07:10,640 Speaker 1: at one point Will Harris's bullet hit so close to 108 00:07:10,680 --> 00:07:14,400 Speaker 1: the judge that it cracked some bricks, and some pieces 109 00:07:14,400 --> 00:07:16,680 Speaker 1: of the bricks fell right down on top of the 110 00:07:16,760 --> 00:07:19,120 Speaker 1: judge's head, and the judge said, okay, that's enough, and 111 00:07:19,160 --> 00:07:23,040 Speaker 1: he went back inside. And so neither of those guys 112 00:07:23,120 --> 00:07:26,000 Speaker 1: hit the other one. But it was a really interesting 113 00:07:26,080 --> 00:07:29,720 Speaker 1: moment because you know, later Will Harris was tracked down 114 00:07:29,760 --> 00:07:33,040 Speaker 1: by a posse and they riddled him with probably a 115 00:07:33,080 --> 00:07:36,280 Speaker 1: hundred bullets. It's one of those deals. But everybody always 116 00:07:36,320 --> 00:07:39,800 Speaker 1: considered Judge Spears Reynolds to be the luckiest man in 117 00:07:39,880 --> 00:07:43,880 Speaker 1: Asheville after that night, because he faced down our worst 118 00:07:43,960 --> 00:07:47,200 Speaker 1: fiend and and came out unharmed. So he was a 119 00:07:47,200 --> 00:07:52,240 Speaker 1: bit of a hero. And what's interesting about him being 120 00:07:52,240 --> 00:07:55,880 Speaker 1: considered the lucky judge in Asheville is that twenty six 121 00:07:55,960 --> 00:08:03,560 Speaker 1: years later, his brother, Robert Reynolds became a United States 122 00:08:03,680 --> 00:08:07,920 Speaker 1: Senator from Asheville. He was a very prominent senator. They 123 00:08:07,920 --> 00:08:12,880 Speaker 1: called him Bunkum Bob, and uh, Reynolds was tied in with, 124 00:08:12,960 --> 00:08:16,840 Speaker 1: you know, the Reynolds Tobacco family. The guy's official portrait 125 00:08:17,520 --> 00:08:23,240 Speaker 1: shows him smoking a cigarette. It's pretty funny. So anyway, 126 00:08:24,080 --> 00:08:28,200 Speaker 1: Senator Bob there he lived near Asheville at what they 127 00:08:28,240 --> 00:08:33,560 Speaker 1: now call Reynolds Mansion, which is a beautiful bed and breakfast. Now. Uh, 128 00:08:33,640 --> 00:08:35,880 Speaker 1: he lived there in this big, glorious mansion that had 129 00:08:35,880 --> 00:08:39,480 Speaker 1: been around since gotsh the probably before the Civil War. 130 00:08:41,000 --> 00:08:46,000 Speaker 1: And when Senator Reynolds was fifty seven years old, he 131 00:08:46,160 --> 00:08:50,800 Speaker 1: married a nineteen year old young woman. And that nineteen 132 00:08:50,880 --> 00:08:58,000 Speaker 1: year old was the daughter of Evelyn mcclan. Evelyn McClain 133 00:08:58,720 --> 00:09:03,400 Speaker 1: was the last the owner of the Hope Diamond. Now, 134 00:09:03,440 --> 00:09:06,120 Speaker 1: of course, I won't go into this whole trail of 135 00:09:06,679 --> 00:09:10,040 Speaker 1: bad phenomena that has followed the Hope Diamond. You can 136 00:09:10,160 --> 00:09:12,000 Speaker 1: look that up on your own. But you know, that's 137 00:09:12,000 --> 00:09:14,080 Speaker 1: why they say it's cursed, like all these bad things 138 00:09:14,080 --> 00:09:16,480 Speaker 1: have happened to people who have owned the Hope Diamond. 139 00:09:17,960 --> 00:09:23,200 Speaker 1: And so Evelyn McClain would visit Asheville and she would 140 00:09:23,200 --> 00:09:26,120 Speaker 1: go to the Reynolds Mansion to see her daughter and 141 00:09:26,280 --> 00:09:30,240 Speaker 1: her son in law, and she would wear the Hope 142 00:09:30,240 --> 00:09:37,439 Speaker 1: Diamond two parties and social gatherings, this priceless, big blue diamond. Now, 143 00:09:37,640 --> 00:09:42,040 Speaker 1: she had already experienced some bad luck. Right after she 144 00:09:42,120 --> 00:09:46,520 Speaker 1: got it, her son died in a car accident, and 145 00:09:46,679 --> 00:09:51,080 Speaker 1: shortly after she visited her daughter and the Senator in Asheville, 146 00:09:51,440 --> 00:09:55,440 Speaker 1: her daughter died of a drug overdose. And then things 147 00:09:55,520 --> 00:09:59,280 Speaker 1: just kept getting worse and worse from there, her philandering 148 00:09:59,360 --> 00:10:04,480 Speaker 1: husband in a sanitarium, the family newspaper, The Washington Post, 149 00:10:04,559 --> 00:10:08,880 Speaker 1: went bankrupt, and just one year after her daughter's death, 150 00:10:08,960 --> 00:10:13,720 Speaker 1: Evelyn herself died from pneumonia. And she was sixty years old. 151 00:10:14,520 --> 00:10:19,000 Speaker 1: So the bad luck surrounding Evelyn McClain helps sort of 152 00:10:19,080 --> 00:10:25,360 Speaker 1: prompt the New York jeweler Harry Winston to donate the 153 00:10:25,440 --> 00:10:31,240 Speaker 1: cursed Hope Diamond to the Smithsonian. Now, I know you're 154 00:10:31,400 --> 00:10:34,320 Speaker 1: asking yourself at this point, Josh, do you have the 155 00:10:34,400 --> 00:10:40,600 Speaker 1: Hope Diamond? I do not. But what I did was 156 00:10:40,679 --> 00:10:45,080 Speaker 1: I bought a really high quality replica of the Hope 157 00:10:45,080 --> 00:10:49,600 Speaker 1: Diamond from the Smithsonian. Now, trust me, I have lots 158 00:10:49,640 --> 00:10:52,080 Speaker 1: of unique original things I'm going to tell you about 159 00:10:52,120 --> 00:10:54,040 Speaker 1: in this podcast. But I wanted to get this one 160 00:10:54,040 --> 00:10:57,120 Speaker 1: out of the way because it is a replica, and 161 00:10:57,200 --> 00:10:59,959 Speaker 1: so when when you'd walk into the museum, I would 162 00:11:00,040 --> 00:11:02,960 Speaker 1: have this replica there and show it's connection to to 163 00:11:03,080 --> 00:11:06,000 Speaker 1: Asheville and all this other weird stuff that people don't 164 00:11:06,040 --> 00:11:08,160 Speaker 1: usually talk about or know about when they discussed the 165 00:11:08,160 --> 00:11:10,960 Speaker 1: Hope Diamond. But here is a question that I had 166 00:11:11,720 --> 00:11:13,680 Speaker 1: for myself when I bought it, and I want you 167 00:11:13,720 --> 00:11:16,040 Speaker 1: to ask yourself this question. I thought to myself, do 168 00:11:16,200 --> 00:11:19,440 Speaker 1: I even want to buy a replica of this thing? 169 00:11:21,880 --> 00:11:26,920 Speaker 1: Because maybe there's something about the shape itself that acts 170 00:11:26,920 --> 00:11:31,960 Speaker 1: as an antanna that somehow attracts bad stuff.

I'm going to tell 215 00:15:08,280 --> 00:15:12,880 Speaker 1: you about some of the real unique things that I have. Uh. 216 00:15:13,160 --> 00:15:15,120 Speaker 1: But you know, when it comes to replicas, I do 217 00:15:15,320 --> 00:15:20,280 Speaker 1: have some other really interesting replicas. You know. The shoe 218 00:15:20,440 --> 00:15:26,000 Speaker 1: R tribe in the Amazon region of South America is 219 00:15:26,040 --> 00:15:35,320 Speaker 1: infamous because they specialized in the shrunken heads, and I 220 00:15:35,400 --> 00:15:39,640 Speaker 1: do not have a shrunken human head. But I do 221 00:15:39,840 --> 00:15:46,200 Speaker 1: have a shrunken head crafted by the descendants of the 222 00:15:46,240 --> 00:15:51,720 Speaker 1: shoe r tribe, and it is made of flesh. I 223 00:15:51,800 --> 00:15:54,040 Speaker 1: don't know what kind of flesh it is. As soon 224 00:15:54,080 --> 00:15:58,280 Speaker 1: as I bought this thing, Laurence saw it. That's my wife, 225 00:15:58,440 --> 00:16:04,520 Speaker 1: and she said, oh, that's a goat testicle. Now I 226 00:16:04,600 --> 00:16:08,240 Speaker 1: have no idea why that Lauren was able to so 227 00:16:08,400 --> 00:16:13,240 Speaker 1: quickly identify a goat testicle, but that is what she says. 228 00:16:13,280 --> 00:16:16,720 Speaker 1: She thinks my shrunken head actually is. I don't know, 229 00:16:16,840 --> 00:16:20,280 Speaker 1: but it's you know, it's still an interesting piece because 230 00:16:20,320 --> 00:16:23,840 Speaker 1: it came directly from them. I also, you know, I 231 00:16:23,920 --> 00:16:27,480 Speaker 1: do not at all advocate the the harming of animals 232 00:16:27,720 --> 00:16:30,960 Speaker 1: for you know, taxidermy or collections or any of that. 233 00:16:31,960 --> 00:16:34,920 Speaker 1: But you know, sometimes animals just die. I mean, we've 234 00:16:34,960 --> 00:16:37,040 Speaker 1: all been walking through the woods and stumbled up on 235 00:16:37,280 --> 00:16:39,400 Speaker 1: like a monkey or something like that, you know what 236 00:16:39,440 --> 00:16:42,280 Speaker 1: I mean, right right? So I've always thought I wouldn't 237 00:16:42,320 --> 00:16:45,800 Speaker 1: mind having a monkey's paul because there's that old story 238 00:16:45,880 --> 00:16:50,240 Speaker 1: from the eighteen hundreds, Uh, where a guy. I'm not 239 00:16:50,280 --> 00:16:51,720 Speaker 1: going to tell you the story right now. But a 240 00:16:51,760 --> 00:16:56,040 Speaker 1: guy he gets a monkey's paul and supposedly it grants wishes. 241 00:16:56,680 --> 00:16:59,320 Speaker 1: But it's a horror story because every time he grants 242 00:16:59,320 --> 00:17:01,920 Speaker 1: a wish, something bad happens in order to make the 243 00:17:01,960 --> 00:17:04,560 Speaker 1: wish come true. So it's a cautionary tale. But anyway, 244 00:17:05,240 --> 00:17:08,040 Speaker 1: I always thought that would be just like an odd 245 00:17:08,040 --> 00:17:12,040 Speaker 1: little thing for me to have monkeys paul, and but 246 00:17:12,080 --> 00:17:16,520 Speaker 1: they I've never seen a monkey's paul for sale. I 247 00:17:16,560 --> 00:17:19,160 Speaker 1: do have a monkey skull that a friend of mine 248 00:17:19,200 --> 00:17:22,600 Speaker 1: who deals and novelties, sold to me. Uh, maybe you 249 00:17:22,600 --> 00:17:24,639 Speaker 1: can hold a monkey's skull and make a wish on it. 250 00:17:24,760 --> 00:17:26,600 Speaker 1: I don't know. But again, these are not animals that 251 00:17:26,640 --> 00:17:29,400 Speaker 1: are killed for this purpose. These are animals that die, 252 00:17:29,720 --> 00:17:32,520 Speaker 1: usually in zoos and and or there are some countries 253 00:17:32,560 --> 00:17:35,560 Speaker 1: that probably eat them. I don't know exactly, But anyway, 254 00:17:35,600 --> 00:17:38,960 Speaker 1: my point is I was on eBay one time and 255 00:17:39,000 --> 00:17:40,919 Speaker 1: I happened to type in monkeys paw and there was 256 00:17:40,920 --> 00:17:43,320 Speaker 1: a taxidermist who had something that looked a heck of 257 00:17:43,320 --> 00:17:46,440 Speaker 1: a lot like a monkey's paul, and but he said 258 00:17:46,480 --> 00:17:48,959 Speaker 1: it wasn't really a monkey's pall, so I bought it, 259 00:17:49,920 --> 00:17:52,240 Speaker 1: and then I said, well, what is it? And that's 260 00:17:52,280 --> 00:17:55,000 Speaker 1: when he confessed that it is a raccoon Paul. He 261 00:17:55,040 --> 00:17:56,960 Speaker 1: said he found that he goes out. He lives in 262 00:17:57,680 --> 00:18:00,080 Speaker 1: I think the southeastern u S and he go is 263 00:18:00,119 --> 00:18:02,840 Speaker 1: out and he just hunts road kill and people tell him, 264 00:18:02,880 --> 00:18:05,120 Speaker 1: you know, when there's road kill, and he does little 265 00:18:05,240 --> 00:18:08,440 Speaker 1: artistic things like that. So I do have a raccoon Paul. 266 00:18:08,920 --> 00:18:12,600 Speaker 1: So I've gotten out of the way. It's in a nice, 267 00:18:12,640 --> 00:18:15,520 Speaker 1: little beautiful glass case with a latch. It's all old 268 00:18:15,560 --> 00:18:18,960 Speaker 1: fashioned and spooky looking. I'm getting out of the way 269 00:18:19,040 --> 00:18:20,560 Speaker 1: some of that kind of stuff, which is you know, 270 00:18:20,720 --> 00:18:22,879 Speaker 1: more like a replica oriented. And by the way, if 271 00:18:22,920 --> 00:18:24,960 Speaker 1: you do happen to know anybody who has a monkey's 272 00:18:25,000 --> 00:18:26,680 Speaker 1: Paul for sell, you know, let me know about it. 273 00:18:27,280 --> 00:18:31,520 Speaker 1: But when I can. In two thousand twelve, I got 274 00:18:31,560 --> 00:18:33,760 Speaker 1: to take one of the most amazing best trips of 275 00:18:33,800 --> 00:18:36,240 Speaker 1: my life. I spent some time in Europe. I got 276 00:18:36,280 --> 00:18:39,600 Speaker 1: to investigate the Tower of London. I took the official 277 00:18:39,720 --> 00:18:42,560 Speaker 1: Jack the Ripper tour there in London, and I flew 278 00:18:42,640 --> 00:18:45,480 Speaker 1: to Romania and I got to investigate all of the 279 00:18:45,480 --> 00:18:49,480 Speaker 1: big castles associated with Vlad the Impaler, not just the 280 00:18:49,600 --> 00:18:54,520 Speaker 1: touristy stuff. I mean, I'm talking historic places that uh 281 00:18:54,920 --> 00:18:57,800 Speaker 1: either he either he owned or where he was imprisoned. 282 00:18:58,359 --> 00:19:00,560 Speaker 1: And um, we had a great his story in and 283 00:19:00,640 --> 00:19:03,719 Speaker 1: guide and a lot of spooky things happened. But um, 284 00:19:03,920 --> 00:19:05,760 Speaker 1: one of the best parts of that trip was going 285 00:19:05,880 --> 00:19:09,800 Speaker 1: to the town where they wrote the Romanians say that 286 00:19:09,960 --> 00:19:13,959 Speaker 1: Vlad was born. It's called siggy Swara, and it is 287 00:19:14,080 --> 00:19:19,000 Speaker 1: the uh the They call it the best preserved Middle 288 00:19:19,600 --> 00:19:24,399 Speaker 1: Um Middle Ages, like medieval town in Europe. That's what 289 00:19:24,560 --> 00:19:27,160 Speaker 1: it's promoted as. And it's amazing. It doesn't look real. 290 00:19:27,480 --> 00:19:30,439 Speaker 1: The whole place looks like a movie set. So I 291 00:19:30,480 --> 00:19:32,720 Speaker 1: felt like I was in the Dracula novel on the 292 00:19:32,760 --> 00:19:34,680 Speaker 1: way there. As a matter of fact, I'll just toss 293 00:19:34,720 --> 00:19:37,760 Speaker 1: this out in case you find this of interest, uh 294 00:19:37,800 --> 00:19:40,600 Speaker 1: if you read the book Dracula. I brought up a 295 00:19:40,640 --> 00:19:42,520 Speaker 1: little pdf of it right here in front of me, 296 00:19:43,280 --> 00:19:47,200 Speaker 1: Like just a few pages into the book. Jonathan Harker 297 00:19:47,280 --> 00:19:49,919 Speaker 1: is writing in his diary, of course, about his trip 298 00:19:50,359 --> 00:19:55,199 Speaker 1: as he's going to Transylvania, and so he Um, he 299 00:19:55,240 --> 00:19:58,240 Speaker 1: writes that he stopped like at some end, and he says, 300 00:19:58,320 --> 00:20:02,399 Speaker 1: I dined on what they call robber steak, bits of bacon, 301 00:20:02,560 --> 00:20:06,560 Speaker 1: onion and beef, seasoned with red pepper and strong on 302 00:20:06,720 --> 00:20:10,159 Speaker 1: sticks and roasted over the fire in a simple style 303 00:20:10,320 --> 00:20:16,200 Speaker 1: of London's cat meat. The wine was golden mediash, which 304 00:20:16,240 --> 00:20:20,160 Speaker 1: produces a queer sting on the tongue, which is, however, 305 00:20:20,440 --> 00:20:23,480 Speaker 1: not disagreeable. Now you may or may not know that 306 00:20:23,560 --> 00:20:27,120 Speaker 1: I enjoy a glass of wine, and so I said, hey, 307 00:20:27,240 --> 00:20:31,000 Speaker 1: I gotta have me some of this golden mediash, just 308 00:20:31,119 --> 00:20:34,720 Speaker 1: like Jonathan Harker and the book Dracula. And sure enough, 309 00:20:35,240 --> 00:20:38,800 Speaker 1: near Siki Shwara, there is a winery called Jive. I 310 00:20:38,800 --> 00:20:41,080 Speaker 1: think it's j I d v e I or something 311 00:20:41,160 --> 00:20:44,760 Speaker 1: like that. Uh, And let's look it up. And so 312 00:20:45,119 --> 00:20:48,080 Speaker 1: raw Do, who was our guide there, he said that 313 00:20:48,320 --> 00:20:52,320 Speaker 1: they are going to produce the closest thing to that wine. Yeah, 314 00:20:52,400 --> 00:20:57,399 Speaker 1: j I d V e I. And it is great wine, 315 00:20:57,840 --> 00:21:01,439 Speaker 1: Jive white wine. But since I have gotten back in 316 00:21:01,480 --> 00:21:04,199 Speaker 1: the States, I have never been able to find it. 317 00:21:04,400 --> 00:21:06,000 Speaker 1: So if any of you know how to get some 318 00:21:06,119 --> 00:21:09,040 Speaker 1: Jive white wine, let me know and I'll buy a 319 00:21:09,080 --> 00:21:14,760 Speaker 1: few bottles. Anyway, in Sigi Shwara, in the home well, 320 00:21:15,000 --> 00:21:18,480 Speaker 1: the birthplace of Vladim Paler there in Transylvania. I said 321 00:21:18,520 --> 00:21:22,320 Speaker 1: to Lauren, I have got to have a crucifix from 322 00:21:22,359 --> 00:21:25,399 Speaker 1: this place. And I imagine that maybe when you go 323 00:21:25,520 --> 00:21:28,240 Speaker 1: to Transylvania and it looks like you're in the movies 324 00:21:28,280 --> 00:21:31,040 Speaker 1: and you have these big snow capped mountains everywhere, maybe 325 00:21:31,040 --> 00:21:36,520 Speaker 1: it's easy to find a crucifix. It was practically impossible. 326 00:21:37,640 --> 00:21:39,960 Speaker 1: None of the shops I went into had them. I'm 327 00:21:40,040 --> 00:21:43,080 Speaker 1: hitting up antique shop after antique store. I mean, like, 328 00:21:43,160 --> 00:21:45,760 Speaker 1: nobody had any crosses, and I'm asking people. It was 329 00:21:45,800 --> 00:21:48,760 Speaker 1: just really weird to me that it was so hard 330 00:21:48,800 --> 00:21:52,800 Speaker 1: to find a cross, and I'd basically almost given up hope. 331 00:21:53,600 --> 00:21:57,399 Speaker 1: And finally here I wasn't siggi Shwara a stone's throw 332 00:21:57,520 --> 00:22:00,240 Speaker 1: from where, you know, like the building that Lad was 333 00:22:00,320 --> 00:22:06,080 Speaker 1: born in, And I walked down this really steep, small 334 00:22:06,320 --> 00:22:10,879 Speaker 1: dark staircase underneath the street, okay, under the cobble stones, 335 00:22:11,920 --> 00:22:16,600 Speaker 1: and it came out into this tiny little antique shop. 336 00:22:16,840 --> 00:22:20,520 Speaker 1: The ceiling was so low I could barely stand up, 337 00:22:20,520 --> 00:22:23,760 Speaker 1: and there it was really claustrophobic, and there was this 338 00:22:23,840 --> 00:22:26,800 Speaker 1: little old woman in there with all these display cases 339 00:22:27,359 --> 00:22:31,479 Speaker 1: with various odds and ends, and I went over and 340 00:22:31,520 --> 00:22:36,000 Speaker 1: I said to her that I, well, I'm looking for 341 00:22:36,080 --> 00:22:43,600 Speaker 1: a crucifix. And at first she pointed out a crucifix 342 00:22:43,640 --> 00:22:47,359 Speaker 1: that she had that was really cool and old antique 343 00:22:47,359 --> 00:22:49,600 Speaker 1: crucifix and it had some nice big like pieces of 344 00:22:49,640 --> 00:22:51,720 Speaker 1: amber in it and everything, and I was like, I'll 345 00:22:51,720 --> 00:22:54,560 Speaker 1: take it. I bought that, and I said do you 346 00:22:54,640 --> 00:22:57,639 Speaker 1: have anything older though, And she goes, well, I do 347 00:22:57,880 --> 00:23:02,520 Speaker 1: have a piece, but this is something that I usually keep, 348 00:23:02,600 --> 00:23:04,639 Speaker 1: you know, for my special collectors. And I was like, 349 00:23:04,720 --> 00:23:06,200 Speaker 1: what what, what do you? What do you have there? 350 00:23:06,920 --> 00:23:10,640 Speaker 1: So she goes back and she comes back out from 351 00:23:10,680 --> 00:23:14,760 Speaker 1: behind her scenes there in a shop, and she had 352 00:23:14,880 --> 00:23:24,920 Speaker 1: this worn simple metal cross that what had been hand hewn, 353 00:23:25,119 --> 00:23:29,600 Speaker 1: hand fashioned. And she told me that this had belonged 354 00:23:29,640 --> 00:23:34,240 Speaker 1: to a family there in the area there around Siki 355 00:23:34,240 --> 00:23:37,439 Speaker 1: Shwara in Transylvania. It had been in the family for 356 00:23:37,480 --> 00:23:42,480 Speaker 1: generations because they actually had some dark spirits that were 357 00:23:42,600 --> 00:23:46,440 Speaker 1: messing with the family, and that this is what they 358 00:23:46,560 --> 00:23:49,320 Speaker 1: used to keep the spirits at bay. It basically was 359 00:23:49,400 --> 00:23:53,479 Speaker 1: on the mantel at their house and the the last 360 00:23:53,880 --> 00:23:57,160 Speaker 1: ancestor had died and they had a state type of cell. 361 00:23:57,240 --> 00:24:00,959 Speaker 1: And so I said, I will take it. And I 362 00:24:01,040 --> 00:24:05,919 Speaker 1: have therefore got this actual old generational metal and I 363 00:24:05,960 --> 00:24:07,960 Speaker 1: forget what kind of metal it is because it's been 364 00:24:08,000 --> 00:24:10,320 Speaker 1: in storage now for a while and I haven't you know, 365 00:24:10,400 --> 00:24:13,480 Speaker 1: it's been in a nice glass case. I'm gonna be 366 00:24:13,560 --> 00:24:15,400 Speaker 1: breaking it out soon. That's one of those things I'll 367 00:24:15,400 --> 00:24:18,960 Speaker 1: probably put in my house. But um, so I have 368 00:24:19,119 --> 00:24:25,000 Speaker 1: this nice Transylvania cross uh with some actual pieces of 369 00:24:25,640 --> 00:24:28,160 Speaker 1: Lad's castle Poinari, And that's one of the just one 370 00:24:28,160 --> 00:24:31,200 Speaker 1: of the coolest things that I have great memories there, Okay, 371 00:24:31,280 --> 00:24:34,960 Speaker 1: moving on. Oh yeah, I also have a vampire killing kit. 372 00:24:36,440 --> 00:24:39,640 Speaker 1: Uh there there. I've had an exorcist one time, uh 373 00:24:39,680 --> 00:24:42,760 Speaker 1: here in the States who actually makes vampire killing kits 374 00:24:42,800 --> 00:24:45,040 Speaker 1: with the wooden steaks and the silver bullets and the 375 00:24:45,080 --> 00:24:47,960 Speaker 1: garlic and the salt and all that stuff. So I 376 00:24:48,000 --> 00:24:49,960 Speaker 1: have that. That's a really neat thing to have. It's 377 00:24:50,000 --> 00:24:54,400 Speaker 1: in a nice big wooden box, you know. Um. When 378 00:24:54,400 --> 00:24:57,679 Speaker 1: I was in Puerto Rico, I was always coming across 379 00:24:57,800 --> 00:25:02,040 Speaker 1: really interesting stuff there, and one day my friend Ellis said, Josh, 380 00:25:02,520 --> 00:25:05,879 Speaker 1: you've got to meet me at the bar. I have 381 00:25:06,200 --> 00:25:09,040 Speaker 1: something you want to see. Trust Me, you're gonna love this. 382 00:25:09,520 --> 00:25:11,520 Speaker 1: And I met Ellis there at the bar and he 383 00:25:11,560 --> 00:25:14,640 Speaker 1: opens up a shoe box and inside is this big 384 00:25:14,760 --> 00:25:19,800 Speaker 1: skull with big teeth and just a really creepy ridge 385 00:25:19,880 --> 00:25:25,119 Speaker 1: on the top. And he said, this is a chupacabra skull. 386 00:25:25,520 --> 00:25:29,520 Speaker 1: I said what. And sure enough, there was a small 387 00:25:29,600 --> 00:25:33,639 Speaker 1: town in the western part of Puerto Rico where people 388 00:25:33,640 --> 00:25:36,199 Speaker 1: had been claiming they were seeing some kind of what 389 00:25:36,240 --> 00:25:40,560 Speaker 1: they called a chupacabra running around and killing livestock, and 390 00:25:40,680 --> 00:25:44,399 Speaker 1: it was always seen, especially around this one house. And 391 00:25:44,440 --> 00:25:46,879 Speaker 1: they finally went under there. They smelled something dead, and 392 00:25:46,920 --> 00:25:49,600 Speaker 1: they went under the house and they found that this 393 00:25:49,640 --> 00:25:52,120 Speaker 1: thing had crawled under a house and died. And so 394 00:25:52,200 --> 00:25:54,520 Speaker 1: he says, this is what the people of that village 395 00:25:54,920 --> 00:25:58,800 Speaker 1: called a chupacabra skull. And I made a nice donation 396 00:25:58,880 --> 00:26:02,280 Speaker 1: to the village, and I have this thing, and look, 397 00:26:02,320 --> 00:26:04,520 Speaker 1: I'll be honest with you, I think it's some kind 398 00:26:04,560 --> 00:26:09,359 Speaker 1: of a canine skull um. But I I know that 399 00:26:09,359 --> 00:26:11,560 Speaker 1: if this is gonna be shocking to you, I have 400 00:26:11,760 --> 00:26:15,639 Speaker 1: not had this expertly examined yet. And the main reason 401 00:26:15,800 --> 00:26:18,960 Speaker 1: is when I got it, I shipped it to Asheville 402 00:26:19,640 --> 00:26:23,120 Speaker 1: from Puerto Rico and since I've been back in the States, 403 00:26:23,720 --> 00:26:26,199 Speaker 1: I have not had a chance to do testing on 404 00:26:26,200 --> 00:26:28,080 Speaker 1: a lot of the stuff that I shipped back. But 405 00:26:28,160 --> 00:26:30,720 Speaker 1: that's not all I got from Puerto Rico. You know, 406 00:26:30,800 --> 00:26:34,160 Speaker 1: everybody talks about what happens when a UFO crashes. Will 407 00:26:34,240 --> 00:26:38,240 Speaker 1: a UFO crashed in Puerto Rico?

I am your host, 432 00:28:41,000 --> 00:28:44,520 Speaker 1: Joshua Pete Warren, and this is the show where the 433 00:28:44,760 --> 00:28:51,840 Speaker 1: unusual becomes usual. And when I was living in Puerto Rico, 434 00:28:53,080 --> 00:28:58,120 Speaker 1: I went to the home of a man who lives 435 00:28:58,240 --> 00:29:04,440 Speaker 1: in Lajas. Now Lajas is a very rural part of 436 00:29:04,480 --> 00:29:09,280 Speaker 1: the island. It's on the western side. It's that's basically 437 00:29:09,320 --> 00:29:12,120 Speaker 1: over in the direction where you find the Laguna Cartagena, 438 00:29:12,200 --> 00:29:16,680 Speaker 1: the Ufo Lagoon. And he was home there in his 439 00:29:16,840 --> 00:29:21,920 Speaker 1: kitchen on May five of nineteen nineteen seven, May fifth, 440 00:29:22,040 --> 00:29:27,080 Speaker 1: n uh, preparing a meal when all of a sudden, 441 00:29:27,600 --> 00:29:31,760 Speaker 1: this is in the early evening, the sky lit up 442 00:29:31,880 --> 00:29:36,200 Speaker 1: red and there was a horrible explosion on the mountain 443 00:29:36,960 --> 00:29:40,520 Speaker 1: right next to his house, the uninhabited mountain. There may 444 00:29:40,560 --> 00:29:45,440 Speaker 1: have been some animals, you know, roaming there. Boom, big 445 00:29:45,480 --> 00:29:48,040 Speaker 1: flash of blinding light, and then he looked up and 446 00:29:48,040 --> 00:29:53,240 Speaker 1: the entire mountain was a blaze. And in no time 447 00:29:53,280 --> 00:29:57,560 Speaker 1: you had every emergency service in the world there, followed 448 00:29:57,600 --> 00:30:00,640 Speaker 1: by every government agency you can have engine and they 449 00:30:00,680 --> 00:30:04,680 Speaker 1: were coming in with Geiger counters and has matt suits 450 00:30:04,720 --> 00:30:07,640 Speaker 1: and cleaning out the area and telling everybody, don't come 451 00:30:07,640 --> 00:30:10,240 Speaker 1: around here, this could be radioactive blah blah blah blah 452 00:30:10,440 --> 00:30:13,480 Speaker 1: that they would never ever given explanation as to what 453 00:30:13,600 --> 00:30:20,000 Speaker 1: it was. So many people have seen UFOs around that 454 00:30:20,080 --> 00:30:25,240 Speaker 1: spot and aliens around that spot that this incident was 455 00:30:25,240 --> 00:30:28,960 Speaker 1: sort of the icing on the cake, and so uh, 456 00:30:29,000 --> 00:30:31,600 Speaker 1: it became so popular that at one point one of 457 00:30:31,640 --> 00:30:36,640 Speaker 1: the state officials there, I guess actually was a local official, 458 00:30:37,200 --> 00:30:41,600 Speaker 1: decided to designate the road that runs through their Puerto 459 00:30:41,720 --> 00:30:45,520 Speaker 1: Rico's extraterrestrial Highway. So they're just like we have an 460 00:30:45,520 --> 00:30:48,880 Speaker 1: et highway here in Las Vegas. There's also one in Lajas, 461 00:30:49,000 --> 00:30:53,520 Speaker 1: Puerto Rico. So it's actually a bit of a hike, 462 00:30:54,120 --> 00:30:56,400 Speaker 1: uh to get to this spot where this thing crashed, 463 00:30:57,200 --> 00:30:59,680 Speaker 1: but I got permission to go on this land it's 464 00:30:59,720 --> 00:31:03,080 Speaker 1: probably it land, and I got a guide because you 465 00:31:03,080 --> 00:31:06,680 Speaker 1: could get lost up there easily. And my friend Ellis 466 00:31:06,760 --> 00:31:08,680 Speaker 1: and the guide and I we took a whole day 467 00:31:08,720 --> 00:31:10,800 Speaker 1: and we hiked up to this spot where this thing 468 00:31:10,840 --> 00:31:14,640 Speaker 1: had crashed. And when I got there, uh, there were 469 00:31:14,680 --> 00:31:18,800 Speaker 1: still signs of some type of you know, big explosion there. 470 00:31:19,520 --> 00:31:23,880 Speaker 1: I took lots of pictures, video footage, measurements, and I 471 00:31:23,920 --> 00:31:27,239 Speaker 1: didn't get anything particularly radioactive or you know, there were 472 00:31:27,280 --> 00:31:31,360 Speaker 1: some very odd electromagnetic fields best I recalled. But the 473 00:31:31,400 --> 00:31:33,760 Speaker 1: main thing that impressed me was you found or I 474 00:31:33,800 --> 00:31:39,920 Speaker 1: found all of these uh, charred black scorched stones still 475 00:31:39,960 --> 00:31:43,840 Speaker 1: there around the impact zone. And so I got it 476 00:31:44,400 --> 00:31:48,360 Speaker 1: bag full of these things and ship them back to 477 00:31:48,520 --> 00:31:50,600 Speaker 1: the US. And so that is another thing I have 478 00:31:50,680 --> 00:31:54,400 Speaker 1: in my collection. I have some scorched rocks from the 479 00:31:54,520 --> 00:31:57,760 Speaker 1: UFO crash site in Lajas, Porto Rico from May fifth. 480 00:31:59,120 --> 00:32:01,960 Speaker 1: That is something else that I'm going to be devoting 481 00:32:02,040 --> 00:32:04,480 Speaker 1: a lot of research to in the near future, and 482 00:32:04,520 --> 00:32:08,240 Speaker 1: I'll be telling you how that goes. Also, you know, 483 00:32:08,400 --> 00:32:11,320 Speaker 1: if you listen to one of my earlier podcasts, I 484 00:32:11,360 --> 00:32:14,080 Speaker 1: forget which episode it was. Um I was talking about 485 00:32:14,160 --> 00:32:17,760 Speaker 1: the time I spent investigating Roswell, New Mexico, and how 486 00:32:17,800 --> 00:32:20,800 Speaker 1: that sure when you go there, there are places where 487 00:32:20,800 --> 00:32:23,920 Speaker 1: the tourist guides will tell you like, oh, yeah, that's 488 00:32:23,960 --> 00:32:26,440 Speaker 1: the crash sight. No, no, this is the crash. Well. 489 00:32:26,720 --> 00:32:29,120 Speaker 1: When I went there, I was with historians that had 490 00:32:29,160 --> 00:32:33,360 Speaker 1: actually found the real crash site there around Corona, like 491 00:32:33,400 --> 00:32:37,320 Speaker 1: the main area, and so I did collect some some 492 00:32:37,440 --> 00:32:41,080 Speaker 1: sand from the desert. I do have some sand from 493 00:32:41,080 --> 00:32:44,720 Speaker 1: the real Roswell crash site. I also have some UFO 494 00:32:44,920 --> 00:32:50,320 Speaker 1: crash debris, some little pieces of metal that were collected 495 00:32:50,400 --> 00:32:53,480 Speaker 1: from near Roswell, And perhaps I'll tell you more about 496 00:32:53,520 --> 00:32:55,440 Speaker 1: that on a future show. That is also one of 497 00:32:55,480 --> 00:32:58,880 Speaker 1: my most prized possessions. And people who go to the 498 00:32:58,880 --> 00:33:01,600 Speaker 1: Creepy Vegas Ghosts the UFO show here I do in 499 00:33:01,680 --> 00:33:04,400 Speaker 1: Las Vegas, Lisa, I will be doing it again once 500 00:33:04,440 --> 00:33:08,880 Speaker 1: we can have shows like that. Um it uh you 501 00:33:08,920 --> 00:33:10,920 Speaker 1: know it features that you get to touch a piece 502 00:33:10,960 --> 00:33:16,120 Speaker 1: of it. I have pieces I collected from a crop 503 00:33:16,240 --> 00:33:21,680 Speaker 1: circle in the hay that appeared in a part of 504 00:33:21,680 --> 00:33:27,360 Speaker 1: western North Carolina. Also in western North Carolina. This is 505 00:33:27,400 --> 00:33:32,040 Speaker 1: probably the heaviest thing in my collection. We had the 506 00:33:32,080 --> 00:33:36,120 Speaker 1: old Buncombe County Jail there in town, which was built 507 00:33:36,160 --> 00:33:40,960 Speaker 1: in nineteen and after being there for eighty three years 508 00:33:41,000 --> 00:33:44,960 Speaker 1: being the center of all that drama, uh, the officials 509 00:33:44,960 --> 00:33:49,440 Speaker 1: in the area decided to demolish and scrap that gael 510 00:33:49,840 --> 00:33:53,000 Speaker 1: and build a new jail. And so the idea was, 511 00:33:53,120 --> 00:33:55,520 Speaker 1: I mean, this jail is all just you can imagine 512 00:33:55,560 --> 00:33:58,600 Speaker 1: the most hardcore, heavy, thick still. The idea was like, 513 00:33:58,600 --> 00:34:00,880 Speaker 1: like they hired this company from Tennessee to go in 514 00:34:01,320 --> 00:34:04,840 Speaker 1: and just you you just use giant cranes and torches 515 00:34:04,840 --> 00:34:07,720 Speaker 1: and cut everything up in the the tiniest pieces possible, 516 00:34:07,720 --> 00:34:11,719 Speaker 1: scoop them out, take them off, dumpleman, you know, and uh, 517 00:34:11,760 --> 00:34:16,720 Speaker 1: and scrap them. And I wanted to have some pieces 518 00:34:16,760 --> 00:34:20,680 Speaker 1: of the jail. I wanted to preserve some some parts 519 00:34:20,680 --> 00:34:23,080 Speaker 1: of this old jail, not just because they're haunted, but 520 00:34:23,160 --> 00:34:27,800 Speaker 1: also it's that's just a very rare opportunity historically speaking, 521 00:34:27,800 --> 00:34:29,319 Speaker 1: you know, to be able to save a piece of 522 00:34:29,360 --> 00:34:32,759 Speaker 1: something like that. And fortunately the guy in charge of 523 00:34:32,760 --> 00:34:36,399 Speaker 1: the scrapping company from Tennessee, he had an appreciation for 524 00:34:36,520 --> 00:34:40,279 Speaker 1: history and he worked with me, and yes, I paid him, 525 00:34:40,320 --> 00:34:45,120 Speaker 1: but um he took special care to cut out some big, 526 00:34:45,360 --> 00:34:50,960 Speaker 1: heavy pieces of that old jail uh. The bars, a 527 00:34:51,080 --> 00:34:57,320 Speaker 1: crude metal table, a bed, uh, part of a peep hole, 528 00:34:57,880 --> 00:35:00,279 Speaker 1: like a whole section of the of the all or 529 00:35:00,320 --> 00:35:02,719 Speaker 1: the door that had a people, some of the big 530 00:35:02,840 --> 00:35:06,000 Speaker 1: levers that would open and close the cell doors. I 531 00:35:06,280 --> 00:35:12,000 Speaker 1: have these giant, heavy chunks of metal. That's the worst 532 00:35:12,080 --> 00:35:15,560 Speaker 1: part about moving my collection around. Nobody wants to be 533 00:35:15,680 --> 00:35:20,319 Speaker 1: on the move the jail bars duty. But I have 534 00:35:20,560 --> 00:35:24,560 Speaker 1: these old haunted jails jail bars, and not surprisingly, this 535 00:35:24,640 --> 00:35:29,200 Speaker 1: stuff is extremely magnetic. It's it's even more magnetized than 536 00:35:29,280 --> 00:35:32,280 Speaker 1: you would expect it to be, just from being made 537 00:35:32,280 --> 00:35:38,000 Speaker 1: of steel and people. They're always hearing weird voices around. 538 00:35:38,800 --> 00:35:43,040 Speaker 1: I think they're magnetized with spiritual activity from decades of 539 00:35:43,120 --> 00:35:49,280 Speaker 1: exposure to criminals, desperate people, all these dreary souls trapped 540 00:35:49,320 --> 00:35:54,040 Speaker 1: behind them. So that's that's an interesting thing. Another heavy 541 00:35:54,080 --> 00:35:57,800 Speaker 1: thing that I have, I have the original vacuum chamber 542 00:35:58,680 --> 00:36:01,759 Speaker 1: that the Lemur team and I used to do our 543 00:36:01,840 --> 00:36:07,120 Speaker 1: Brown Mountain Lights experiments. We produced a plasma on a 544 00:36:07,200 --> 00:36:10,560 Speaker 1: miniature scale that's very similar to the Brown Mountain Lights 545 00:36:10,560 --> 00:36:13,440 Speaker 1: and it's it's such a special thing because it earned 546 00:36:13,480 --> 00:36:17,080 Speaker 1: us the cover of a science journal, the Electric Spacecraft Journal, 547 00:36:17,120 --> 00:36:19,680 Speaker 1: in two thousand four. Not many people in the so 548 00:36:19,800 --> 00:36:21,960 Speaker 1: called paranormal field can say they have been on the 549 00:36:21,960 --> 00:36:25,319 Speaker 1: cover of a science journal. And so I've got that 550 00:36:25,480 --> 00:36:28,799 Speaker 1: big heavy very you know, it's if you don't know 551 00:36:28,800 --> 00:36:31,240 Speaker 1: what you're doing with that thing, it's a dangerous machine. Actually, 552 00:36:31,280 --> 00:36:33,560 Speaker 1: I've got that vacuum chamber. I have a lot of 553 00:36:33,560 --> 00:36:37,880 Speaker 1: the machines featured on TV shows like Ghost Adventures. For example, 554 00:36:37,920 --> 00:36:41,400 Speaker 1: on Ghost Adventures, I owned the big Tesla coil that 555 00:36:41,520 --> 00:36:44,200 Speaker 1: was on the live episode of Ghost Adventures I think 556 00:36:44,239 --> 00:36:48,920 Speaker 1: from like maybe two thousand eighteen. The Vandergraph machines that 557 00:36:48,960 --> 00:36:53,360 Speaker 1: were on just recently, um a Devil's toy box that 558 00:36:53,440 --> 00:36:56,200 Speaker 1: we used on our Winchester Mansion show. So I have 559 00:36:56,239 --> 00:36:59,840 Speaker 1: a lot of TV prop stuff. And you've heard the 560 00:37:00,040 --> 00:37:03,719 Speaker 1: talk a lot about my buddy Jim Mars, who he 561 00:37:03,800 --> 00:37:06,719 Speaker 1: was just one of a kind of walking encyclopedia, the 562 00:37:06,760 --> 00:37:11,200 Speaker 1: world's greatest expert when it comes to conspiracies, and he 563 00:37:11,280 --> 00:37:15,560 Speaker 1: was just, uh, he really was a walking encyclopedia. Jim Mars. 564 00:37:15,760 --> 00:37:19,920 Speaker 1: He died in seventeen at age seventy three. And I'm 565 00:37:19,960 --> 00:37:23,360 Speaker 1: so lucky because the last time I visited him was 566 00:37:23,440 --> 00:37:27,640 Speaker 1: the year before, in sixteen. Lauren and I were in 567 00:37:27,760 --> 00:37:31,319 Speaker 1: Texas for something. Actually, we were passing through Texas and 568 00:37:31,520 --> 00:37:34,799 Speaker 1: uh he lived in the Dallas Fort Worth area, and 569 00:37:34,880 --> 00:37:37,759 Speaker 1: so we went to his house and we spent a 570 00:37:37,920 --> 00:37:41,080 Speaker 1: night with him and his wife, Carol, and it was 571 00:37:41,400 --> 00:37:44,680 Speaker 1: just a treasured memory. I saw things, and he showed 572 00:37:44,719 --> 00:37:47,000 Speaker 1: me things that I'll never forget. I'll do a whole 573 00:37:47,000 --> 00:37:50,239 Speaker 1: other podcast sometime about the things that Jim Mars had 574 00:37:50,280 --> 00:37:54,040 Speaker 1: at his house and his collection. But Jim Mars, you know, 575 00:37:54,160 --> 00:37:56,640 Speaker 1: if you if you're having trouble picturing him. He always 576 00:37:56,680 --> 00:37:59,440 Speaker 1: wore fedora. He had a gray beard. He was a 577 00:37:59,520 --> 00:38:06,200 Speaker 1: jolly man, and Jim was famous for wearing that fedora. 578 00:38:06,600 --> 00:38:08,480 Speaker 1: And I guess, you know, he was getting up there 579 00:38:08,480 --> 00:38:11,719 Speaker 1: in years, and so I just knew when I saw 580 00:38:11,800 --> 00:38:13,840 Speaker 1: him in twenty sixteen, Lauren and I had a feeling 581 00:38:13,880 --> 00:38:15,719 Speaker 1: it might be the last time we were to see him, 582 00:38:15,719 --> 00:38:17,919 Speaker 1: even though he was in good health at that time. 583 00:38:18,920 --> 00:38:22,640 Speaker 1: And I convinced Jim to take a fedora out of 584 00:38:22,719 --> 00:38:27,279 Speaker 1: his closet and sign it so that I could put 585 00:38:27,280 --> 00:38:29,920 Speaker 1: it in my museum, and he did. He made me 586 00:38:30,040 --> 00:38:32,800 Speaker 1: by a fedora he had. He had probably twenty fedoras 587 00:38:32,800 --> 00:38:35,520 Speaker 1: in his closet and he made me by one. But 588 00:38:35,600 --> 00:38:38,040 Speaker 1: I was happy too, So I got this fedora from him. 589 00:38:38,080 --> 00:38:41,600 Speaker 1: He signed it and then uh he also gave me 590 00:38:41,640 --> 00:38:44,120 Speaker 1: a picture of him wearing that the same fedora at 591 00:38:44,160 --> 00:38:49,040 Speaker 1: Citznitsa and a handwritten note saying he wore that. Uh. Anyway, 592 00:38:49,040 --> 00:38:51,280 Speaker 1: when he was done, he says, after all this, Josh, 593 00:38:51,320 --> 00:38:54,080 Speaker 1: if anybody doubts that I owned this fedora, they kiss 594 00:38:54,120 --> 00:38:59,680 Speaker 1: my So anyway, um, I've got us, as far as 595 00:38:59,680 --> 00:39:04,560 Speaker 1: I know, the only signed Jim Mars fedora. That's uh yeah, 596 00:39:04,640 --> 00:39:07,120 Speaker 1: what what what a treasure? Let mean to me? That's 597 00:39:07,120 --> 00:39:12,800 Speaker 1: a true treasure. Uh. My great friend Santaro, David Longley, 598 00:39:13,160 --> 00:39:18,840 Speaker 1: he donated a big special beated wand probably like two 599 00:39:18,840 --> 00:39:22,360 Speaker 1: point five feet long, you know, like a big center 600 00:39:22,600 --> 00:39:26,960 Speaker 1: Santaria wand and and another very special item that's used 601 00:39:26,960 --> 00:39:29,880 Speaker 1: in Santaria. I would tell you more about this stuff, 602 00:39:30,520 --> 00:39:33,799 Speaker 1: but I am going to be interviewing him soon, and 603 00:39:33,840 --> 00:39:36,279 Speaker 1: so instead of telling you now, I'll let him tell 604 00:39:36,320 --> 00:39:39,080 Speaker 1: you what these things are that he donated for the collection. 605 00:39:39,800 --> 00:39:45,879 Speaker 1: I have haunted dolls. I have a German doll that 606 00:39:46,160 --> 00:39:49,839 Speaker 1: uh it's people, they say, as a presence around it. 607 00:39:49,880 --> 00:39:52,720 Speaker 1: And I have a replica of Robert the Haunted doll 608 00:39:52,800 --> 00:39:55,840 Speaker 1: that I got from Key West. It's not an exact replica, 609 00:39:55,920 --> 00:39:58,279 Speaker 1: but it's they sell it as a replica.

This is 644 00:43:05,040 --> 00:43:10,880 Speaker 1: the four four or five ft tall, one pound wooden 645 00:43:11,000 --> 00:43:14,360 Speaker 1: alien statue that belonged to Art Bell. He kept it 646 00:43:14,400 --> 00:43:18,200 Speaker 1: in his studio with him as he was broadcasting his 647 00:43:18,280 --> 00:43:23,239 Speaker 1: classic shows, and according to Art, his family said that 648 00:43:23,320 --> 00:43:27,760 Speaker 1: this alien was coming to life at night and running 649 00:43:27,800 --> 00:43:31,839 Speaker 1: around the house. That is a long story, and so 650 00:43:31,960 --> 00:43:34,920 Speaker 1: instead of me trying to tell you that story, I listen. 651 00:43:34,960 --> 00:43:38,799 Speaker 1: I built a whole website to tell you this story. 652 00:43:38,840 --> 00:43:42,360 Speaker 1: And that website is simply art Bell Alien dot com. 653 00:43:42,719 --> 00:43:46,600 Speaker 1: Art Bell Alien dot com.

But it's one of those 662 00:44:17,280 --> 00:44:20,080 Speaker 1: things that really belongs in the Smithsonian, and I have 663 00:44:20,160 --> 00:44:23,040 Speaker 1: both of those things right here now. Something that I 664 00:44:23,120 --> 00:44:25,960 Speaker 1: have in storage that will soon be in my living room, however, 665 00:44:26,880 --> 00:44:30,560 Speaker 1: is a special crystal skull. And let me start by 666 00:44:30,560 --> 00:44:32,840 Speaker 1: telling you. You know, there you're all kinds of weird 667 00:44:33,200 --> 00:44:36,520 Speaker 1: rumors about the power of crystal skulls and them speaking 668 00:44:36,560 --> 00:44:39,520 Speaker 1: to people and having a consciousness and all that, and 669 00:44:39,560 --> 00:44:43,560 Speaker 1: it's it's certainly possible. There's something to it, because crystals 670 00:44:43,600 --> 00:44:48,080 Speaker 1: do store energy and manipulate energy and play energy back. 671 00:44:48,239 --> 00:44:51,520 Speaker 1: And you know, maybe that's worth a whole show digging 672 00:44:51,560 --> 00:44:54,520 Speaker 1: into why that crystals are special. But you know, in 673 00:44:54,560 --> 00:44:59,120 Speaker 1: two thousand nine, my friends Missy and Ron Hill arranged 674 00:44:59,200 --> 00:45:04,640 Speaker 1: for the friend Joshua Shapiro to come to my laboratory 675 00:45:04,920 --> 00:45:09,760 Speaker 1: and bring one of his favorite crystal skulls for some testing. 676 00:45:10,600 --> 00:45:14,279 Speaker 1: And I was there with Forrest Connor and Shelley Right 677 00:45:15,360 --> 00:45:18,880 Speaker 1: and we spent a whole night subjecting this crystal skull 678 00:45:18,960 --> 00:45:22,400 Speaker 1: to tests. And one weird thing I found was that 679 00:45:22,440 --> 00:45:28,520 Speaker 1: if you put uh, basically a telekinetic will or or 680 00:45:28,560 --> 00:45:31,440 Speaker 1: a p K will in front of it, a mind 681 00:45:31,480 --> 00:45:33,640 Speaker 1: will that you're you're supposed to move with your mind, 682 00:45:33,880 --> 00:45:37,279 Speaker 1: it would spin fluidly when we put it in front 683 00:45:37,280 --> 00:45:38,960 Speaker 1: of the skull, but not when we put it in 684 00:45:39,000 --> 00:45:41,640 Speaker 1: front of a control. And if you don't know what 685 00:45:41,719 --> 00:45:44,080 Speaker 1: kind of will I'm talking about, go back and listen 686 00:45:44,080 --> 00:45:49,319 Speaker 1: to episode three of this show, because episode three was 687 00:45:49,360 --> 00:45:52,000 Speaker 1: called like how to Move Things with your Mind, So 688 00:45:52,040 --> 00:45:55,400 Speaker 1: it was a will similar to that that would spin 689 00:45:55,480 --> 00:45:59,600 Speaker 1: incredibly in front of the crystal skull, but not otherwise. 690 00:46:00,520 --> 00:46:03,760 Speaker 1: And I looked at my report that I wrote after 691 00:46:03,920 --> 00:46:06,520 Speaker 1: testing the skull in all these different ways, and I wrote, 692 00:46:06,800 --> 00:46:10,280 Speaker 1: the skull is a capacitor that slowly accrues a slight 693 00:46:10,440 --> 00:46:15,960 Speaker 1: electrical potential and then gradually discharges it, usually with the 694 00:46:16,080 --> 00:46:19,760 Speaker 1: current flow from the left temple to the right temple. 695 00:46:21,200 --> 00:46:25,239 Speaker 1: This is most pronounced when the skull is held by 696 00:46:25,280 --> 00:46:30,600 Speaker 1: a human. Okay, a human holds it, you get this 697 00:46:30,680 --> 00:46:34,720 Speaker 1: pronounced flow of energy. I wrote. The skull takes high 698 00:46:34,800 --> 00:46:39,480 Speaker 1: voltage electrical potential and most likely transforms it into a 699 00:46:39,560 --> 00:46:44,680 Speaker 1: high frequency output. Hence the fact the skull rarely gave 700 00:46:44,680 --> 00:46:48,399 Speaker 1: forth a large bolt of discharge to surrounding objects, even 701 00:46:48,440 --> 00:46:50,840 Speaker 1: though at least fifty to a hundred and fifty thousand 702 00:46:50,960 --> 00:46:55,000 Speaker 1: volts were being applied to the skull. It's taking voltage 703 00:46:55,000 --> 00:47:00,239 Speaker 1: and turning it into an electro magnetic broadcast. I also wrote, 704 00:47:00,280 --> 00:47:02,920 Speaker 1: it may be that this and similar crystal skulls are 705 00:47:03,000 --> 00:47:07,440 Speaker 1: so popular because of their ability to transform low frequency 706 00:47:07,560 --> 00:47:13,520 Speaker 1: electrical potential into high frequency electrical output that is broadcast 707 00:47:13,719 --> 00:47:18,840 Speaker 1: at a level to which sensitive individuals can perceive, perhaps 708 00:47:18,920 --> 00:47:27,120 Speaker 1: even affecting the electro physiology of the brain. UM. I 709 00:47:27,280 --> 00:47:32,960 Speaker 1: have a heck of a crystal skull. Now, I've been 710 00:47:33,000 --> 00:47:34,920 Speaker 1: telling you about the one that we tested that was 711 00:47:34,960 --> 00:47:42,160 Speaker 1: owned by Joshua Shapiro. But my good friend, miss Shaleyen Gates, 712 00:47:42,200 --> 00:47:45,520 Speaker 1: she is a world traveler, and years ago she was 713 00:47:45,560 --> 00:47:53,760 Speaker 1: in another country and she found this amazing alien crystal skull. 714 00:47:54,320 --> 00:47:57,120 Speaker 1: It reminds me of something from the Indiana Jones and 715 00:47:57,160 --> 00:48:00,760 Speaker 1: the Crystal Kingdom of the Crystal Skull movie. We're talking 716 00:48:00,800 --> 00:48:05,120 Speaker 1: about a skull that's easily you know, a foot long, 717 00:48:05,680 --> 00:48:10,480 Speaker 1: a massive chunk of courts, beautifully carved. And she bought this, 718 00:48:10,719 --> 00:48:12,920 Speaker 1: and she donated it, and I took it to the 719 00:48:12,920 --> 00:48:16,840 Speaker 1: Bermuda Triangle and charged it up, and I had that 720 00:48:16,920 --> 00:48:18,880 Speaker 1: in the museum and I'm telling you, people would go 721 00:48:18,920 --> 00:48:22,719 Speaker 1: there and they would receive telepathic messages from it, occasionally 722 00:48:22,719 --> 00:48:26,399 Speaker 1: glimpses of the future. That's another thing that's soon going 723 00:48:26,440 --> 00:48:28,960 Speaker 1: to be in my house. Another one of my really 724 00:48:29,000 --> 00:48:31,600 Speaker 1: cool possessions that I have in storage right now, just 725 00:48:31,640 --> 00:48:36,000 Speaker 1: for a limited time. Um, and that is my alien 726 00:48:36,040 --> 00:48:38,520 Speaker 1: crystal skull. You know, at some point I'm going to 727 00:48:38,640 --> 00:48:42,000 Speaker 1: have all of this stuff on display again here in 728 00:48:42,080 --> 00:48:44,480 Speaker 1: Las Vegas. And I have not told you about everything 729 00:48:44,520 --> 00:48:48,200 Speaker 1: that I have because as a surprise, I keep some 730 00:48:48,280 --> 00:48:52,080 Speaker 1: of my best stuff for only for people who come 731 00:48:52,120 --> 00:48:55,160 Speaker 1: to the Creepy Vegas Ghost and UFO show when they 732 00:48:55,239 --> 00:48:59,200 Speaker 1: visit Las Vegas. And so it's not running right now, 733 00:48:59,440 --> 00:49:02,000 Speaker 1: but it should be up and running again very soon. 734 00:49:02,080 --> 00:49:05,080 Speaker 1: We're just waiting until we get the green light on that. 735 00:49:05,840 --> 00:49:07,920 Speaker 1: Before I go, I want to read to you a 736 00:49:08,000 --> 00:49:12,320 Speaker 1: quick story that my buddy, Mr. Vance Pollock wrote, because 737 00:49:12,440 --> 00:49:16,840 Speaker 1: Vance Pollock was the chief historian for my museum, and 738 00:49:16,880 --> 00:49:21,240 Speaker 1: he also is the operator of the Joshua pe Warren's 739 00:49:21,440 --> 00:49:26,040 Speaker 1: Asheville Mystery Museum Facebook page. And it reminded me of 740 00:49:26,080 --> 00:49:28,319 Speaker 1: this great story when I was going over all these 741 00:49:28,360 --> 00:49:31,040 Speaker 1: items that you know, Vance helped me so much researching 742 00:49:31,120 --> 00:49:34,520 Speaker 1: things and digging up wonderful documents. Listen to this story. 743 00:49:34,600 --> 00:49:38,840 Speaker 1: Vance wrote. It's called, um, the Legend of Red Blood 744 00:49:38,960 --> 00:49:43,239 Speaker 1: Rock and uh, he says. As I was growing up, 745 00:49:43,280 --> 00:49:46,720 Speaker 1: I remember often hearing my mother recount a local legend 746 00:49:46,840 --> 00:49:50,640 Speaker 1: from her small mountain community. The tale spoke of a 747 00:49:50,719 --> 00:49:54,799 Speaker 1: murdered man, fallen and bleeding, left to die on a 748 00:49:54,880 --> 00:49:58,239 Speaker 1: great pale boulder along the side of a creek, and 749 00:49:58,320 --> 00:50:01,640 Speaker 1: although the body is long gone, every time it rains, 750 00:50:01,880 --> 00:50:06,520 Speaker 1: the boulder will still run red with blood. As a boy, 751 00:50:06,560 --> 00:50:10,840 Speaker 1: this story always fascinated me, and I never got tired 752 00:50:10,880 --> 00:50:14,759 Speaker 1: of hearing it. Many years later, I came across a 753 00:50:14,800 --> 00:50:18,600 Speaker 1: politician while doing research on my great great grandfather Kit Bird. 754 00:50:19,760 --> 00:50:23,480 Speaker 1: According to the book, he was murdered back in one 755 00:50:24,120 --> 00:50:27,600 Speaker 1: during a run in with his quote business partners, that 756 00:50:27,760 --> 00:50:32,440 Speaker 1: is to say, fellow moonshiners. They were called Whitson Brothers. 757 00:50:33,840 --> 00:50:38,160 Speaker 1: The murder happened near Red Hill, a rural mountain community 758 00:50:38,200 --> 00:50:42,719 Speaker 1: in Mitchell County, North Carolina. It is supposed that all 759 00:50:42,840 --> 00:50:45,680 Speaker 1: three brothers fired shots at Kit as he attempted to 760 00:50:45,719 --> 00:50:49,480 Speaker 1: walk away from a heated argument, and kit staggered to 761 00:50:49,520 --> 00:50:52,160 Speaker 1: a nearby creek bank, where he fell upon a large 762 00:50:52,280 --> 00:50:58,000 Speaker 1: pell boulder and bled to death. Red Hill is just 763 00:50:58,360 --> 00:51:01,960 Speaker 1: miles down the road from the community in which my 764 00:51:02,000 --> 00:51:06,520 Speaker 1: mom grew up, so without knowing it, she had for 765 00:51:07,040 --> 00:51:13,680 Speaker 1: decades been recounting a legend born from the murder of 766 00:51:13,760 --> 00:51:21,320 Speaker 1: her own great grandfather. That is so typical of the 767 00:51:21,760 --> 00:51:28,080 Speaker 1: kinds of synchronicities that Vance Paulock always runs into when 768 00:51:28,080 --> 00:51:30,480 Speaker 1: he does his research. I'm gonna have to to be 769 00:51:30,640 --> 00:51:33,480 Speaker 1: sure to interview Vance. I'm making a note right now. 770 00:51:33,480 --> 00:51:36,400 Speaker 1: You gotta, yeah, I gotta have vants on this show. 771 00:51:37,680 --> 00:51:40,719 Speaker 1: Uh you know, Vance was I specifically chose him to 772 00:51:40,760 --> 00:51:44,279 Speaker 1: be my replacement host on Speaking of Strange after I 773 00:51:44,360 --> 00:51:46,239 Speaker 1: no longer had time to host it. And he is 774 00:51:46,280 --> 00:51:53,600 Speaker 1: just one of those guys crackling with synchronicities. Sherlock Pollock. 775 00:51:53,719 --> 00:51:55,759 Speaker 1: You put him on a mission to find something, he 776 00:51:55,800 --> 00:51:57,799 Speaker 1: will find that he will stumble into it, it will 777 00:51:57,840 --> 00:52:00,799 Speaker 1: come to him. And so that was one of the 778 00:52:00,840 --> 00:52:04,000 Speaker 1: reasons that my museum was was such a great place, 779 00:52:04,920 --> 00:52:08,360 Speaker 1: because you had people like Vance Pollock there who was 780 00:52:09,640 --> 00:52:13,080 Speaker 1: who was doing research all the time. So look that 781 00:52:13,280 --> 00:52:16,160 Speaker 1: those are just some examples. I'm really just scratching the 782 00:52:16,200 --> 00:52:20,160 Speaker 1: surface of some of the things that I have in 783 00:52:20,200 --> 00:52:25,160 Speaker 1: my collection that I find interesting and meaningful, and I 784 00:52:25,200 --> 00:52:29,000 Speaker 1: hope that you find them also interesting to hear about. 785 00:52:29,520 --> 00:52:32,120 Speaker 1: And there are some that I really, really, really really 786 00:52:32,120 --> 00:52:34,400 Speaker 1: wish I could tell you about. But again, I gotta 787 00:52:34,480 --> 00:52:38,680 Speaker 1: save some surprises for you know, down the road, especially 788 00:52:39,040 --> 00:52:41,480 Speaker 1: when I do put some stuff back on display. I 789 00:52:41,560 --> 00:52:47,600 Speaker 1: have some things that are so crazy that uh it's 790 00:52:47,840 --> 00:52:50,279 Speaker 1: it's different. You won't even believe how I attained some 791 00:52:50,400 --> 00:52:52,920 Speaker 1: of the things that I have. So I I saved 792 00:52:52,920 --> 00:52:55,839 Speaker 1: the very best stuff of course, um for those who 793 00:52:55,880 --> 00:52:58,960 Speaker 1: come to an event where I promised them something big. Right. 794 00:53:00,080 --> 00:53:02,320 Speaker 1: So I'll let you know when the Creepy Vegas Ghost 795 00:53:02,360 --> 00:53:05,479 Speaker 1: and UFO show is going to be available again here 796 00:53:05,480 --> 00:53:07,520 Speaker 1: in Las Vegas. Be sure you just sign up from 797 00:53:07,520 --> 00:53:11,759 Speaker 1: my e newsletter and I'll advertise that.
