1 00:00:00,400 --> 00:00:03,640 Speaker 1: So I was going through this phase where I was 2 00:00:03,680 --> 00:00:07,240 Speaker 1: accidentally doing an Andy Rooney thing a while back, and 3 00:00:07,280 --> 00:00:09,760 Speaker 1: I had We have a lot of episodes that are 4 00:00:09,800 --> 00:00:14,960 Speaker 1: titled like what's the deal with blah blah blah. Hey, 5 00:00:15,000 --> 00:00:17,560 Speaker 1: this is one of those. This is one of those episodes. 6 00:00:17,600 --> 00:00:20,239 Speaker 1: But despite the title, this is something that many of 7 00:00:20,280 --> 00:00:23,960 Speaker 1: our fellow conspiracy realists we're asking us to explore for years. 8 00:00:24,360 --> 00:00:27,960 Speaker 1: We're talking about skin Walker Ranch. This is one of 9 00:00:27,960 --> 00:00:32,279 Speaker 1: the most controversial stories or groups of stories in the 10 00:00:32,320 --> 00:00:35,599 Speaker 1: world of UFOs. Oh Man, the skin Walker Ranch yp 11 00:00:35,760 --> 00:00:39,520 Speaker 1: so much mystery here. I can't wait to talk about 12 00:00:39,520 --> 00:00:42,760 Speaker 1: this again in some weird time warp where you're about 13 00:00:42,760 --> 00:00:46,159 Speaker 1: to hear us talk about it. I don't know what 14 00:00:46,200 --> 00:00:50,000 Speaker 1: I'm saying. Hey, here's another awesome UFO episode. We hope 15 00:00:50,000 --> 00:00:53,920 Speaker 1: you enjoy it, and there's still more to come from 16 00:00:54,040 --> 00:00:57,440 Speaker 1: UFOs two, Ghosts and Government cover ups. History is riddled 17 00:00:57,520 --> 00:01:01,080 Speaker 1: with unexplained events. You can turn back now or learn 18 00:01:01,160 --> 00:01:08,880 Speaker 1: the stuff they don't want you to now. Hello, welcome 19 00:01:08,880 --> 00:01:10,880 Speaker 1: back to the show. My name is Matt and I 20 00:01:10,880 --> 00:01:13,360 Speaker 1: am Ben, and we are joined as always by our 21 00:01:13,480 --> 00:01:17,559 Speaker 1: super producer nol the a T. Alien Brown. Oh yeah, 22 00:01:17,800 --> 00:01:22,040 Speaker 1: the a t alien little outcasting here this uh, this afternoon. 23 00:01:22,760 --> 00:01:25,880 Speaker 1: So ladies and gentlemen, today we are going all the 24 00:01:25,920 --> 00:01:28,120 Speaker 1: way out to Utah. As many of you know, we're 25 00:01:28,160 --> 00:01:31,320 Speaker 1: located here in Atlanta, Georgia. And the reason we're going 26 00:01:31,360 --> 00:01:34,520 Speaker 1: out to Utah is because there are some things that 27 00:01:34,640 --> 00:01:38,399 Speaker 1: happen when you're out in a large open area like 28 00:01:38,480 --> 00:01:41,280 Speaker 1: many of the places in Utah, that you you might 29 00:01:41,319 --> 00:01:44,360 Speaker 1: see something in the sky, you might see something that 30 00:01:44,440 --> 00:01:47,040 Speaker 1: you don't really see on the ground that you can't explain. 31 00:01:47,880 --> 00:01:50,040 Speaker 1: But that's the reason we're going out there, because there 32 00:01:50,120 --> 00:01:54,320 Speaker 1: is one particular place that that some of these things 33 00:01:54,360 --> 00:01:56,400 Speaker 1: tend to happen. Ben, And we've been getting lots and 34 00:01:56,480 --> 00:01:58,640 Speaker 1: lots of people on Twitter, on Facebook all over the 35 00:01:58,640 --> 00:02:03,160 Speaker 1: place saying, you guys have to cover this location, right. Yeah, 36 00:02:03,240 --> 00:02:06,280 Speaker 1: we've checked out a lot of the YouTube comments. I've 37 00:02:06,320 --> 00:02:10,160 Speaker 1: seen this stuff on Facebook and Twitter asking us to 38 00:02:10,360 --> 00:02:14,000 Speaker 1: cover something that is legally known as the Sherman Ranch. 39 00:02:14,200 --> 00:02:17,000 Speaker 1: As Matt said, it is located in a place called 40 00:02:17,360 --> 00:02:22,680 Speaker 1: Unitalk County, about four hundred and eighty acres of ranch land, 41 00:02:23,200 --> 00:02:26,160 Speaker 1: a little bit southeast of a place called Ballard, Utah. 42 00:02:26,240 --> 00:02:30,200 Speaker 1: But you perhaps know it better by it's more famous 43 00:02:30,200 --> 00:02:35,240 Speaker 1: internet moniker skin Walker Ranch. Oh yeah, and out here 44 00:02:35,520 --> 00:02:38,120 Speaker 1: there are all kinds of alleged things that happened, from 45 00:02:38,240 --> 00:02:43,160 Speaker 1: cattle mutilations to UFO sightings of various kinds, lights in 46 00:02:43,200 --> 00:02:46,480 Speaker 1: the sky, sometimes stuff that happens closer to the ground. 47 00:02:47,000 --> 00:02:50,880 Speaker 1: Sure you'll also hear you'll also hear other anecdotes about 48 00:02:51,440 --> 00:02:58,200 Speaker 1: so called sensing a presence, telepathic intrusions, Poulter Gey stuff. Again, 49 00:02:58,240 --> 00:03:02,680 Speaker 1: all anecdotal. But before we dive into that. Oh, and 50 00:03:02,760 --> 00:03:04,919 Speaker 1: that's what we're doing, by the way, ladies and gentleman 51 00:03:04,960 --> 00:03:07,240 Speaker 1: spoiler alert, we're looking at some of the fact and 52 00:03:07,320 --> 00:03:11,359 Speaker 1: fiction here. Now, Matt, you like you hate this stuff. No, no, 53 00:03:11,480 --> 00:03:13,680 Speaker 1: I do not hate this stuff. I just want it 54 00:03:13,760 --> 00:03:16,560 Speaker 1: to be real and I want someone to capture something 55 00:03:17,000 --> 00:03:19,440 Speaker 1: and when it's just a human being. Most of the 56 00:03:19,480 --> 00:03:22,640 Speaker 1: research I've done on this, You've done the bulk of it. 57 00:03:22,680 --> 00:03:24,160 Speaker 1: But a lot of the research I've done in this 58 00:03:24,200 --> 00:03:27,320 Speaker 1: it's just a person talking to another person like this 59 00:03:27,520 --> 00:03:30,760 Speaker 1: and telling a story about what they've experienced. Okay, Well, 60 00:03:30,800 --> 00:03:33,760 Speaker 1: I didn't mean to pigeonhole you by saying you hate it. No, no, no, 61 00:03:33,800 --> 00:03:37,160 Speaker 1: I certainly don't hate it. I I really like the 62 00:03:37,280 --> 00:03:43,120 Speaker 1: ideas it. It hurts me intellectually when someone is trying 63 00:03:43,160 --> 00:03:46,520 Speaker 1: to convince me so hard that this thing happened but 64 00:03:46,560 --> 00:03:51,320 Speaker 1: they have absolutely zero empirical evidence or yeah, zero zero 65 00:03:51,480 --> 00:03:54,160 Speaker 1: universally accepted evan. Okay, it's probably a good way to 66 00:03:54,240 --> 00:03:56,520 Speaker 1: qualify that. So that's what we're gonna do today, ladies 67 00:03:56,560 --> 00:03:59,040 Speaker 1: and gentlemen. We're going to catch you up on a 68 00:03:59,080 --> 00:04:03,120 Speaker 1: little bit of one one about Skinwalker Ranch or the 69 00:04:03,160 --> 00:04:06,480 Speaker 1: real name, the Sherman Ranch, and then we're ultimately going 70 00:04:06,520 --> 00:04:10,120 Speaker 1: to end on asking you the same questions and maybe, 71 00:04:10,160 --> 00:04:13,760 Speaker 1: if we're lucky, somebody in or around Ballard, Utah, will 72 00:04:14,040 --> 00:04:16,880 Speaker 1: give us the skinny these stuff. They don't want you 73 00:04:16,960 --> 00:04:20,800 Speaker 1: to know about this location. So let's look at the history, Matt. 74 00:04:20,880 --> 00:04:23,520 Speaker 1: The uh. The history of this, at least as far 75 00:04:23,520 --> 00:04:27,720 Speaker 1: as the paper trail goes, is relatively recent in comparison 76 00:04:27,760 --> 00:04:30,320 Speaker 1: to other, um you know, so called hot spots for 77 00:04:30,360 --> 00:04:33,400 Speaker 1: this kind of activity. The first documented reports about the 78 00:04:33,440 --> 00:04:36,520 Speaker 1: Sherman Ranch are found in a publication called the Utah 79 00:04:36,600 --> 00:04:39,880 Speaker 1: Desert News. It's out of Salt Lake City. This was 80 00:04:40,080 --> 00:04:43,000 Speaker 1: written by a guy named Zack van Ike in or 81 00:04:43,279 --> 00:04:46,400 Speaker 1: e y c k uh not no relation to David 82 00:04:46,600 --> 00:04:49,880 Speaker 1: around nineteen nine six, and that wasn't the only time 83 00:04:49,920 --> 00:04:52,160 Speaker 1: it was mentioned. That's right. So we were out here, 84 00:04:52,200 --> 00:04:56,360 Speaker 1: you know, exploring the Olympics that year, and uh, out 85 00:04:56,400 --> 00:04:58,440 Speaker 1: there on the other side, there's some crazy stuff going 86 00:04:58,480 --> 00:05:02,159 Speaker 1: down at the Sherman Ranch. Now, this was later mentioned 87 00:05:02,160 --> 00:05:06,040 Speaker 1: in Las Vegas Mercury. This was also mentioned several times 88 00:05:06,040 --> 00:05:08,000 Speaker 1: by George and App. I believe George and App as 89 00:05:07,920 --> 00:05:11,080 Speaker 1: a person who wrote in the Mercury. Yeah, he was 90 00:05:11,200 --> 00:05:15,440 Speaker 1: a host of show that I personally really enjoy. I 91 00:05:15,440 --> 00:05:17,960 Speaker 1: don't know about you called Coast to Coast, a m 92 00:05:18,080 --> 00:05:22,520 Speaker 1: which we have mentioned briefly before on this on this show. 93 00:05:23,080 --> 00:05:26,400 Speaker 1: So yeah, the uh, this guy doesn't just write a 94 00:05:26,440 --> 00:05:30,400 Speaker 1: couple of things. He really digs in and makes this 95 00:05:30,880 --> 00:05:34,080 Speaker 1: uh something identifiable with him, which, as will learn, is 96 00:05:34,120 --> 00:05:38,120 Speaker 1: going to be important later. However, if you are to 97 00:05:38,240 --> 00:05:42,160 Speaker 1: believe the unofficial histories of I think there's a retired 98 00:05:42,200 --> 00:05:44,960 Speaker 1: school teacher and then there's a retired military official of 99 00:05:45,040 --> 00:05:48,480 Speaker 1: some sort. Uh. If you're to believe their stories, then 100 00:05:49,160 --> 00:05:53,799 Speaker 1: reports of cattle mutilation in this area, this rough area 101 00:05:53,880 --> 00:05:58,800 Speaker 1: go back for decades at least and allegedly, or at 102 00:05:58,880 --> 00:06:02,280 Speaker 1: least well you how much of this is true. Allegedly 103 00:06:02,800 --> 00:06:07,960 Speaker 1: these stories tie into something much much older. That's right, 104 00:06:08,279 --> 00:06:13,520 Speaker 1: the legend of skin walkers. This is really cool stuff here. 105 00:06:13,600 --> 00:06:15,440 Speaker 1: This is kind of this is the stuff that you 106 00:06:15,560 --> 00:06:17,920 Speaker 1: were really interested in, right, this because this falls into 107 00:06:17,920 --> 00:06:23,840 Speaker 1: the folklore area where you've got Native American groups who 108 00:06:23,839 --> 00:06:26,080 Speaker 1: believe that there is this thing called a skin walker, 109 00:06:26,120 --> 00:06:28,560 Speaker 1: which is essentially a shape changer. There are a lot 110 00:06:28,600 --> 00:06:31,680 Speaker 1: of different types of these. We've talked about like anthropy 111 00:06:32,080 --> 00:06:37,040 Speaker 1: a lot in past episodes about werewolves. Um, this is 112 00:06:37,160 --> 00:06:39,680 Speaker 1: kind of kind of similar to that, with a couple 113 00:06:39,800 --> 00:06:42,880 Speaker 1: important differences. One of the biggest ones is that the 114 00:06:42,880 --> 00:06:46,760 Speaker 1: skin walker can choose to change shape rather than having 115 00:06:46,760 --> 00:06:49,919 Speaker 1: the moon kind of affect their change, right, so the 116 00:06:49,960 --> 00:06:51,640 Speaker 1: full moon doesn't have anything to do with it. Skin 117 00:06:51,680 --> 00:06:56,320 Speaker 1: Walker just goes, okay, it's time change. Uh. Skin Walker 118 00:06:56,400 --> 00:07:00,720 Speaker 1: can also change into any animal given whatever circumstances they 119 00:07:00,720 --> 00:07:04,400 Speaker 1: find themselves in, such as, Uh, let's say they've got 120 00:07:04,440 --> 00:07:07,840 Speaker 1: the pelt of a wolf. Just to use the like 121 00:07:08,000 --> 00:07:11,280 Speaker 1: anthropy example, they can then change into the wolf, but 122 00:07:11,320 --> 00:07:14,880 Speaker 1: then you can use any other interchangeable animal. They're a 123 00:07:14,920 --> 00:07:18,720 Speaker 1: bear even sure, yeah, and this this is a common 124 00:07:18,800 --> 00:07:23,960 Speaker 1: across various different uh Native American groups, in Navajo folklore, 125 00:07:24,040 --> 00:07:27,160 Speaker 1: for instance, which is where this pops up most often, 126 00:07:27,440 --> 00:07:29,880 Speaker 1: or at least in the in the modern West, this 127 00:07:29,960 --> 00:07:32,920 Speaker 1: is most strongly associated with Navajo. A skin walker is 128 00:07:32,960 --> 00:07:37,000 Speaker 1: a kind of which known as a ye no joshi. 129 00:07:37,280 --> 00:07:42,040 Speaker 1: The idea here is similar to some European folklore regarding 130 00:07:42,120 --> 00:07:47,640 Speaker 1: lican thropes, because lican thropes in the older medieval stuff 131 00:07:47,680 --> 00:07:50,400 Speaker 1: and then uh, well, you can listen to the entire 132 00:07:50,400 --> 00:07:54,000 Speaker 1: episode we've done onlike antherpy, but quick and dirty version 133 00:07:54,040 --> 00:07:57,920 Speaker 1: for you here. As sometimes in different periods of the past, 134 00:07:58,520 --> 00:08:01,720 Speaker 1: people who were thought of as werewolves were also thought 135 00:08:01,760 --> 00:08:04,680 Speaker 1: of as witches. It's kind of like the old analogy 136 00:08:04,720 --> 00:08:09,920 Speaker 1: about puzzles and mazes, because not all puzzles are mazes, 137 00:08:10,440 --> 00:08:14,480 Speaker 1: but all mazes are puzzles. So not all witches are 138 00:08:14,600 --> 00:08:17,880 Speaker 1: skin walkers, which is a kind of which, but all 139 00:08:18,240 --> 00:08:22,960 Speaker 1: skin walkers are witches. So most of these witches are men, 140 00:08:23,520 --> 00:08:25,960 Speaker 1: and they gain their powers through some kind of dark act. 141 00:08:26,320 --> 00:08:29,960 Speaker 1: Women can also be these witches, but only childless women. 142 00:08:30,720 --> 00:08:32,880 Speaker 1: At least only childless women can be this sort of 143 00:08:32,920 --> 00:08:36,319 Speaker 1: which and some of these dark acts would be the 144 00:08:36,360 --> 00:08:39,840 Speaker 1: murder of a blood relative. That's pretty heinous, breaking some 145 00:08:39,960 --> 00:08:45,200 Speaker 1: kind of serious cultural taboo, or parts participating in some 146 00:08:45,280 --> 00:08:49,160 Speaker 1: kind of perversion of these Navajo traditional rituals. Right, this 147 00:08:49,200 --> 00:08:53,360 Speaker 1: would be the cultural equivalent of celebrating a black Mass 148 00:08:53,440 --> 00:08:57,280 Speaker 1: or going to uh A, which is Sabbath. The The 149 00:08:57,520 --> 00:09:00,679 Speaker 1: one of the differences here between the skin walker and 150 00:09:00,720 --> 00:09:05,240 Speaker 1: the modern interpretation of the lian throape is that this 151 00:09:05,320 --> 00:09:08,600 Speaker 1: is not a situation where someone could accidentally become a 152 00:09:08,640 --> 00:09:12,400 Speaker 1: skin walker because they were bitten by skin walker. This 153 00:09:12,520 --> 00:09:17,320 Speaker 1: is a conscious decision, or this is the direct consequence 154 00:09:17,800 --> 00:09:22,760 Speaker 1: of doing something unholy. The ones who murder a blood relative, 155 00:09:22,880 --> 00:09:26,720 Speaker 1: a child, a parent, a sibling, they are the ones 156 00:09:26,800 --> 00:09:31,640 Speaker 1: who would get the most, who would become the most powerful. 157 00:09:31,960 --> 00:09:34,320 Speaker 1: And some versions of this, as we said, are found 158 00:09:34,320 --> 00:09:37,520 Speaker 1: in many Native American cultures, not just the Navajo. The 159 00:09:37,559 --> 00:09:40,319 Speaker 1: Aztec have the now all uh it's a human being 160 00:09:40,360 --> 00:09:44,840 Speaker 1: able to transform into an animal physically or spiritually. And 161 00:09:44,880 --> 00:09:49,160 Speaker 1: then there's the Chilean Chilean or Argentinean chun chon. Now 162 00:09:49,200 --> 00:09:52,600 Speaker 1: that's the folklore background of what a skin walker is. 163 00:09:53,320 --> 00:09:56,920 Speaker 1: As we continue our our delve into what the skin 164 00:09:56,960 --> 00:09:59,719 Speaker 1: Walker ranches. We're going to find that it isn't necessarily 165 00:09:59,720 --> 00:10:03,840 Speaker 1: really added to this in particular, but there are there 166 00:10:03,880 --> 00:10:07,880 Speaker 1: are things relating to aliens also that will come into 167 00:10:07,880 --> 00:10:11,560 Speaker 1: this extra terrestrials and possibly this idea that there is 168 00:10:12,160 --> 00:10:15,959 Speaker 1: some kind of supernatural entity that exists somewhere on this land, 169 00:10:16,320 --> 00:10:20,720 Speaker 1: you know. Uh, spoiler alert slight spoiler alert. I I 170 00:10:20,760 --> 00:10:23,320 Speaker 1: love that you said that you went out and said 171 00:10:23,559 --> 00:10:27,080 Speaker 1: extraterrestrials are aliens, because, as we'll find, that's something that 172 00:10:27,160 --> 00:10:31,160 Speaker 1: the researchers, Uh, that was one of their big pet peeves. 173 00:10:31,200 --> 00:10:34,319 Speaker 1: But I think it's I think it's fair to say 174 00:10:34,360 --> 00:10:38,080 Speaker 1: that the vast majority of people who were following the 175 00:10:38,240 --> 00:10:42,720 Speaker 1: developing story did believe it was extraterrestrial well related exactly. 176 00:10:42,760 --> 00:10:44,200 Speaker 1: It was one of their big pet piece. But it 177 00:10:44,240 --> 00:10:46,880 Speaker 1: gets into some of the things that a couple other 178 00:10:46,960 --> 00:10:50,760 Speaker 1: characters were about to find out, gets into the future 179 00:10:51,240 --> 00:10:56,480 Speaker 1: worlds that they get involved with. So let's continue on here, sure, Okay, So, 180 00:10:56,520 --> 00:10:58,480 Speaker 1: as we said, the ranch was brought to the public 181 00:10:58,520 --> 00:11:01,440 Speaker 1: eye largely due to the efforts of this journalist named 182 00:11:01,440 --> 00:11:04,240 Speaker 1: George Napp, who was then host of a radio show 183 00:11:04,280 --> 00:11:07,600 Speaker 1: called Coast to Coast AM which is us a great 184 00:11:07,679 --> 00:11:09,680 Speaker 1: listen if you get a chance, it's really great. You 185 00:11:09,679 --> 00:11:13,800 Speaker 1: You might recognize the name George Nori currently or Art 186 00:11:13,880 --> 00:11:16,840 Speaker 1: Bell for the host of that show. Georgia Napp is 187 00:11:16,880 --> 00:11:19,080 Speaker 1: pretty great. He I think he hosts on the weekends 188 00:11:19,200 --> 00:11:21,920 Speaker 1: or a couple of Sundays every once in a while. 189 00:11:22,320 --> 00:11:28,120 Speaker 1: And uh, as he reported on the bizarre alleged occurrences 190 00:11:28,160 --> 00:11:31,960 Speaker 1: from this ranch, the publicity caught the attention of an 191 00:11:32,120 --> 00:11:36,000 Speaker 1: entrepreneur named Robert Bigelow, who you might also recognize as 192 00:11:36,000 --> 00:11:40,239 Speaker 1: the founder of a company called Bigelow Aerospace. A interesting 193 00:11:40,360 --> 00:11:45,480 Speaker 1: Bigelow Aerospace. They they specialize in trying to create these 194 00:11:45,640 --> 00:11:50,720 Speaker 1: uh not really ruins but capsules where humans can do 195 00:11:50,840 --> 00:11:54,840 Speaker 1: things in space, right along with Richard Branson and to 196 00:11:54,880 --> 00:11:58,600 Speaker 1: a lesser degree, Ellen Musk that he's one of the 197 00:11:58,640 --> 00:12:01,200 Speaker 1: people push he's one of the big parts, or at 198 00:12:01,280 --> 00:12:03,720 Speaker 1: least big Lottle Airspace was one of the big parts 199 00:12:03,760 --> 00:12:09,720 Speaker 1: of the privatized space exploration industry. Pretty interesting there. So 200 00:12:09,800 --> 00:12:13,560 Speaker 1: big Altwle bought this ranch in and he hired another 201 00:12:13,640 --> 00:12:18,360 Speaker 1: gentleman named Calm mkellagher who was a molecular biologist and 202 00:12:18,400 --> 00:12:20,120 Speaker 1: he brought him on to head up the team of 203 00:12:20,160 --> 00:12:23,920 Speaker 1: PhD s who are going to investigate this place. He uh, 204 00:12:23,960 --> 00:12:28,080 Speaker 1: he called the group the National Institute for Discovery Science 205 00:12:28,480 --> 00:12:31,800 Speaker 1: or NEEDS. Here's what they did. The group monitored the 206 00:12:31,880 --> 00:12:34,520 Speaker 1: ranch for twenty four hours a day and they were 207 00:12:34,559 --> 00:12:40,800 Speaker 1: scouting for unusual phenomenon or anomalies. According to Kellagher, and 208 00:12:40,880 --> 00:12:44,200 Speaker 1: this is as told by Brian Dunning from SKEPTID. They 209 00:12:44,240 --> 00:12:48,840 Speaker 1: never came back with any incontrovertible physical evidence. Well, they 210 00:12:48,960 --> 00:12:52,880 Speaker 1: collected a lot of They collected a lot of video 211 00:12:53,160 --> 00:12:56,640 Speaker 1: and some audio, but as we know, that stuff can 212 00:12:56,679 --> 00:12:59,800 Speaker 1: be a little bit like ror shack test. They did, 213 00:12:59,800 --> 00:13:04,120 Speaker 1: how however, see occasional cattle mutilations and floating lights. And 214 00:13:04,280 --> 00:13:07,600 Speaker 1: let's let's take a second to address this because a 215 00:13:07,640 --> 00:13:10,600 Speaker 1: lot of you guys out there probably wondering why I 216 00:13:10,760 --> 00:13:15,880 Speaker 1: just said no physical evidence and then mentioned cattle mutilations. 217 00:13:15,880 --> 00:13:18,679 Speaker 1: And the problem here is really one of interpretation. To 218 00:13:18,880 --> 00:13:22,880 Speaker 1: people who believe that mutilations must be some sort of 219 00:13:22,920 --> 00:13:27,360 Speaker 1: proof of the paranormal or a cryptid or you know, 220 00:13:27,480 --> 00:13:31,679 Speaker 1: a human being change in shape and eating cattle. Uh, 221 00:13:31,040 --> 00:13:35,040 Speaker 1: that is sort of looking for an answer. One expects 222 00:13:35,040 --> 00:13:40,040 Speaker 1: a confirmation bias, but to people who consider themselves skeptics, 223 00:13:40,320 --> 00:13:44,880 Speaker 1: whether they actually are or not, which is an important distinction. Uh. 224 00:13:45,000 --> 00:13:48,520 Speaker 1: These these attacks are within the bounds of normal predation, 225 00:13:48,880 --> 00:13:53,240 Speaker 1: meaning that a a regular predator common in the area 226 00:13:53,360 --> 00:13:58,959 Speaker 1: might attack, or another scavenger might have eaten the corpse. 227 00:13:59,160 --> 00:14:02,000 Speaker 1: I'd like even if they died of natural causes. The 228 00:14:02,840 --> 00:14:06,320 Speaker 1: places where cattle mutilation or evidence of cattle mutilation is 229 00:14:06,320 --> 00:14:09,719 Speaker 1: shown is usually in the face and or the hind quarters, right. 230 00:14:09,720 --> 00:14:12,160 Speaker 1: And this is something that I think on Discovery Channel 231 00:14:12,200 --> 00:14:14,720 Speaker 1: we were there, we discussed this several times about how 232 00:14:14,800 --> 00:14:18,960 Speaker 1: that's those are the entrances to the soft tissues in cattle. 233 00:14:19,720 --> 00:14:22,960 Speaker 1: You're not going to go through the tough outer skin. Uh, 234 00:14:23,200 --> 00:14:25,680 Speaker 1: if you're let's say, I don't know, insects that are 235 00:14:25,680 --> 00:14:28,760 Speaker 1: eating away at a carcass, or even vultures eating way 236 00:14:28,800 --> 00:14:31,560 Speaker 1: to carcass, or a fox, anything of that nature. Even 237 00:14:31,640 --> 00:14:36,000 Speaker 1: micro microbes, they're attacking those two ends right, right. And 238 00:14:36,400 --> 00:14:39,000 Speaker 1: I'd like to do and well, we'll see if I 239 00:14:39,000 --> 00:14:40,680 Speaker 1: get to, but I'd like to do an episode on 240 00:14:40,720 --> 00:14:45,520 Speaker 1: cattle mutilations in the future because it's a pretty interesting topic, 241 00:14:45,680 --> 00:14:49,960 Speaker 1: especially when you get to the people who study different 242 00:14:50,520 --> 00:14:54,360 Speaker 1: types of ways that cattle are attacked, which is which 243 00:14:54,400 --> 00:14:57,600 Speaker 1: is fascinating but very grizzly. So that's what they were 244 00:14:57,600 --> 00:15:02,640 Speaker 1: looking at. They were primarily looking for or unexplained phenomenon 245 00:15:02,920 --> 00:15:09,400 Speaker 1: or anomalies. They were not looking for someone changing shape 246 00:15:09,760 --> 00:15:14,040 Speaker 1: and attacking human beings. Yeah, that's why I kind of 247 00:15:14,080 --> 00:15:16,800 Speaker 1: mentioned at the beginning that the skin Walker Ranch doesn't 248 00:15:16,880 --> 00:15:18,840 Speaker 1: really seem to have that much to do with the 249 00:15:19,480 --> 00:15:23,360 Speaker 1: folklore side of what a skin walker is um really 250 00:15:23,480 --> 00:15:27,480 Speaker 1: beyond the name. Yeah, and critics will allege this was 251 00:15:27,920 --> 00:15:30,760 Speaker 1: largely a marketing employ to call it the skin Walker 252 00:15:30,880 --> 00:15:34,720 Speaker 1: Ranch rather than the Sherman ranching ensure there's a there's 253 00:15:34,840 --> 00:15:41,160 Speaker 1: inarguably a vivid image captured there right the book you 254 00:15:41,200 --> 00:15:44,640 Speaker 1: know Nap George Nap and Colem Kellaher went on to 255 00:15:44,760 --> 00:15:47,920 Speaker 1: publish a book called Hunt for the skin Walker, but 256 00:15:48,080 --> 00:15:52,680 Speaker 1: this focused mainly on UFO sightings, not on any supposed 257 00:15:52,760 --> 00:15:58,600 Speaker 1: supernatural being. And really, again, a UFO is not does 258 00:15:58,680 --> 00:16:02,040 Speaker 1: not necessitate an A and it simply means unidentified. You 259 00:16:02,040 --> 00:16:05,280 Speaker 1: can read some great quotes with Kelleher saying that what 260 00:16:05,320 --> 00:16:09,160 Speaker 1: they're trying to do is turn as many unidentified sightings 261 00:16:09,160 --> 00:16:13,600 Speaker 1: into identified objects, which I thought was fair, but also 262 00:16:14,000 --> 00:16:17,400 Speaker 1: you know, you can read criticism of the way needs 263 00:16:17,480 --> 00:16:21,360 Speaker 1: the National Institute for Discovery Science conducted their research. Maybe 264 00:16:21,360 --> 00:16:23,960 Speaker 1: that's a story for another day. I would say, if 265 00:16:24,000 --> 00:16:26,920 Speaker 1: you're interested in some of their studies and some of 266 00:16:26,920 --> 00:16:29,240 Speaker 1: the reports they put out, Ben you sent me a 267 00:16:29,320 --> 00:16:32,560 Speaker 1: link to the way back Machine to their website, and 268 00:16:32,600 --> 00:16:35,280 Speaker 1: if you're interested, I recommend going to archive dot org 269 00:16:35,360 --> 00:16:38,880 Speaker 1: using that way back machine and checking out needs. Right. Yeah, 270 00:16:38,920 --> 00:16:41,840 Speaker 1: the way back machine is a super useful tool, especially 271 00:16:41,880 --> 00:16:46,200 Speaker 1: for websites that are no longer active. Spoiler Alert needs 272 00:16:46,280 --> 00:16:49,400 Speaker 1: is one of them. Uh. This this also is a 273 00:16:49,400 --> 00:16:53,880 Speaker 1: good time for us to mention other, um, other alleged things. 274 00:16:54,520 --> 00:16:58,040 Speaker 1: George Knapp has come out before and said that the 275 00:16:58,200 --> 00:17:02,040 Speaker 1: family that was living there or before Robert Bigelow purchased 276 00:17:02,040 --> 00:17:07,199 Speaker 1: the property, were they moved within just like thirty months 277 00:17:07,200 --> 00:17:12,840 Speaker 1: of living there because of heightened paranormal activity. And we're 278 00:17:12,880 --> 00:17:17,119 Speaker 1: talking about stuff like going home, putting groceries up in 279 00:17:17,119 --> 00:17:19,479 Speaker 1: the kitchen, walking out for a second, and then walking 280 00:17:19,560 --> 00:17:23,080 Speaker 1: hearing a tremendous crash, walking back to see everything thrown 281 00:17:23,200 --> 00:17:26,360 Speaker 1: away from the out of the cabinets, right, and Crockery 282 00:17:26,440 --> 00:17:32,160 Speaker 1: broken whatnot. So let's go and look closer though at 283 00:17:32,240 --> 00:17:38,639 Speaker 1: the criticism or the response for these claims. Sure, so 284 00:17:38,680 --> 00:17:41,439 Speaker 1: the first big one with that with the family dealing 285 00:17:41,440 --> 00:17:45,600 Speaker 1: with you know, lots of paranormal activity. Um we there 286 00:17:45,760 --> 00:17:49,160 Speaker 1: is no record of the family actually saying this, right, well, 287 00:17:49,240 --> 00:17:52,280 Speaker 1: at least according to what I could find, there was 288 00:17:52,520 --> 00:17:56,000 Speaker 1: not anything from the sherman's going on record and saying that. 289 00:17:56,040 --> 00:18:00,399 Speaker 1: There's plenty of other people saying they said that, but 290 00:18:01,160 --> 00:18:04,920 Speaker 1: I wasn't able to find anything that was clearly them 291 00:18:04,960 --> 00:18:08,840 Speaker 1: saying something like that went down. I would love to 292 00:18:08,880 --> 00:18:11,080 Speaker 1: hear back from anybody who as a link. You can 293 00:18:11,119 --> 00:18:17,679 Speaker 1: find me on the conspiracy stuff Facebook and Twitter. And 294 00:18:17,720 --> 00:18:20,680 Speaker 1: I'm sure it really didn't hurt that Mr Bigelow showed 295 00:18:20,760 --> 00:18:22,280 Speaker 1: up and was like, Hey, I would really like to 296 00:18:22,320 --> 00:18:26,440 Speaker 1: buy a ranch. Here's lots of money, right, yeah, And 297 00:18:26,440 --> 00:18:28,720 Speaker 1: and they have never also, to be fair, they've never 298 00:18:28,760 --> 00:18:31,639 Speaker 1: come out and said there was nothing like that. We're 299 00:18:31,720 --> 00:18:35,119 Speaker 1: just in the money, which is understandable, but they have 300 00:18:35,240 --> 00:18:39,360 Speaker 1: not said that. So the concept of skin walkers explored 301 00:18:39,520 --> 00:18:43,000 Speaker 1: or earlier like ent therapy episode, which again is I 302 00:18:43,040 --> 00:18:44,439 Speaker 1: don't know how you feel mat but it is one 303 00:18:44,480 --> 00:18:47,520 Speaker 1: that I thought we did a pretty good job on. Uh. 304 00:18:47,560 --> 00:18:51,680 Speaker 1: There there is a genuine clinical condition, a genuine clinical 305 00:18:51,800 --> 00:18:55,240 Speaker 1: like antherrapy, in which people do believe they're transforming to 306 00:18:55,359 --> 00:18:59,960 Speaker 1: an into an animal. And sometimes it's because some cultural transgression, 307 00:19:00,080 --> 00:19:04,800 Speaker 1: breaking a taboo, feeling guilty. But as we mentioned to 308 00:19:04,840 --> 00:19:08,840 Speaker 1: that earlier show, uh, because you believe that you are 309 00:19:08,880 --> 00:19:11,840 Speaker 1: transforming into a creature does not mean that you physically 310 00:19:12,200 --> 00:19:14,400 Speaker 1: are transforming new creature. It can make you a more 311 00:19:14,480 --> 00:19:18,360 Speaker 1: dangerous person, but a person nonetheless. So we we came 312 00:19:18,440 --> 00:19:23,480 Speaker 1: up with some speculative answers for why these sort of 313 00:19:23,520 --> 00:19:27,800 Speaker 1: skinwalker like can therapy where jaguar and other kind of 314 00:19:27,840 --> 00:19:30,440 Speaker 1: myths came from. Right. Oh yeah. One of the big 315 00:19:30,480 --> 00:19:35,040 Speaker 1: ones was looking at and a person that was doing 316 00:19:35,080 --> 00:19:37,879 Speaker 1: things that were so horrible you couldn't attribute or it 317 00:19:37,920 --> 00:19:40,920 Speaker 1: was very difficult to attribute those actions to a human being. 318 00:19:41,359 --> 00:19:44,920 Speaker 1: So the thought was that perhaps there is something else 319 00:19:45,000 --> 00:19:48,399 Speaker 1: going on here. This isn't just a man killing his 320 00:19:48,480 --> 00:19:51,760 Speaker 1: family or killing eight families or something like that. This 321 00:19:51,840 --> 00:19:56,199 Speaker 1: must be some kind of wolf spirit or animal spirit 322 00:19:56,280 --> 00:19:59,399 Speaker 1: embodying this human. So it may just be that serial 323 00:19:59,480 --> 00:20:02,680 Speaker 1: killers that this was attributed to them back in the day, 324 00:20:03,000 --> 00:20:06,960 Speaker 1: or even just someone who went on a rampage one time. Right. Yeah, 325 00:20:07,040 --> 00:20:09,080 Speaker 1: one of the cases that we look at, one of 326 00:20:09,080 --> 00:20:12,040 Speaker 1: the most famous cases in that kind of literature, is 327 00:20:12,080 --> 00:20:15,720 Speaker 1: that of a fellow named Peter Stump. Uh. And Peter 328 00:20:15,840 --> 00:20:21,680 Speaker 1: Stump was confessed to numerous crimes, many of which sound 329 00:20:22,440 --> 00:20:26,600 Speaker 1: a little bit exaggerated to be honest. Is so we 330 00:20:26,680 --> 00:20:29,720 Speaker 1: do know that while he was incarcerated, despite eventually being 331 00:20:29,760 --> 00:20:33,600 Speaker 1: executed for the crime of likand throup, he never managed 332 00:20:33,640 --> 00:20:37,199 Speaker 1: to change into a wolf, despite the phases of the 333 00:20:37,240 --> 00:20:39,880 Speaker 1: moon that went you know, went around during his incarceration. 334 00:20:40,560 --> 00:20:45,680 Speaker 1: So we we know that pretty much the not just 335 00:20:46,040 --> 00:20:49,679 Speaker 1: uh skeptics or people who confuse themselves for skeptics, but 336 00:20:50,160 --> 00:20:54,520 Speaker 1: pretty much everybody admits that no one has seen a 337 00:20:54,560 --> 00:20:58,480 Speaker 1: person transformed into an animal, uh, besides on the big 338 00:20:58,520 --> 00:21:02,919 Speaker 1: screen or screen. Right. Right. So then in along comes 339 00:21:02,920 --> 00:21:06,600 Speaker 1: this gentleman named James Randy that we've discussed several times 340 00:21:06,640 --> 00:21:10,639 Speaker 1: on this show. Uh. He gave Robert Bigelow one of 341 00:21:10,720 --> 00:21:17,040 Speaker 1: his self made Pegasus Awards. You may be familiar with these. Um, 342 00:21:17,080 --> 00:21:21,280 Speaker 1: it's it's kind of an insult, right, yeah, it's kind 343 00:21:21,320 --> 00:21:24,840 Speaker 1: of like a Darwin Award, which I believe Randy gives. 344 00:21:24,880 --> 00:21:27,359 Speaker 1: I don't know too much about it, but it's not 345 00:21:27,480 --> 00:21:29,400 Speaker 1: a good thing to win it. It's like a Razzie 346 00:21:29,480 --> 00:21:32,879 Speaker 1: or Darwin Award. Razzies are for terrible movies. Darwin is 347 00:21:32,960 --> 00:21:35,480 Speaker 1: for people who are unfortunate enough to die and what 348 00:21:35,560 --> 00:21:39,080 Speaker 1: could be seen as a stupid way. So yeah, he 349 00:21:39,320 --> 00:21:41,439 Speaker 1: gave Big a little one of these for buying the 350 00:21:41,520 --> 00:21:47,040 Speaker 1: ranch Um, which he said was absolutely useless. Yeah, he 351 00:21:47,040 --> 00:21:49,600 Speaker 1: he said that it was a useless study. You may 352 00:21:49,680 --> 00:21:53,359 Speaker 1: recognize Randy, that's R and D I instead of why. 353 00:21:53,400 --> 00:21:58,040 Speaker 1: You may recognize him from the thing we mentioned much earlier. 354 00:21:58,080 --> 00:22:01,320 Speaker 1: I mean he's he's uh have great standing, so you 355 00:22:01,640 --> 00:22:03,399 Speaker 1: probably if you're listening to this show, you've heard of 356 00:22:03,440 --> 00:22:09,360 Speaker 1: him before. But he also famously had a a running 357 00:22:09,920 --> 00:22:13,840 Speaker 1: contest or I guess challenge where he said if someone 358 00:22:13,880 --> 00:22:17,920 Speaker 1: could present claims are provable things of any any kind 359 00:22:17,960 --> 00:22:22,760 Speaker 1: of paranormal, psychic or supernatural events of anything from a 360 00:22:22,840 --> 00:22:26,000 Speaker 1: ghost to clara voyance or telepathy, he would give them 361 00:22:26,440 --> 00:22:31,360 Speaker 1: one million dollars. That study is currently no longer running, 362 00:22:31,520 --> 00:22:33,560 Speaker 1: which you know is is kind of a bummer, but 363 00:22:33,600 --> 00:22:36,440 Speaker 1: I get it, it's probably expensive to maintain it. Uh. 364 00:22:36,720 --> 00:22:39,920 Speaker 1: For the record, according to him, no one ever beat it. Uh. 365 00:22:39,960 --> 00:22:45,040 Speaker 1: Some of his critics said that it was um unfair. 366 00:22:45,359 --> 00:22:49,960 Speaker 1: But also you know, I also I have I have 367 00:22:50,000 --> 00:22:52,320 Speaker 1: not signed up where, nor do I know anyone who has, 368 00:22:52,359 --> 00:22:56,440 Speaker 1: so I don't know what the actual processes. But apparently 369 00:22:56,440 --> 00:22:58,879 Speaker 1: it's very transparent and you can check some of that 370 00:22:58,920 --> 00:23:01,440 Speaker 1: out on his very as websites. Yeah, you can find 371 00:23:01,520 --> 00:23:05,119 Speaker 1: videos as well, all over the internets of people attempting 372 00:23:05,240 --> 00:23:09,160 Speaker 1: and failing to to do that. UM. To be fair, 373 00:23:09,800 --> 00:23:13,600 Speaker 1: I I in previous episodes, I really held James Randy 374 00:23:13,680 --> 00:23:17,000 Speaker 1: up in this light that he was this beacon of 375 00:23:17,600 --> 00:23:22,560 Speaker 1: truth and like things that I really enjoyed. But I 376 00:23:22,600 --> 00:23:25,280 Speaker 1: don't know. The more of these videos I watched, I'm 377 00:23:25,280 --> 00:23:27,199 Speaker 1: I'm a little nervous saying this, but I feel like 378 00:23:27,240 --> 00:23:31,320 Speaker 1: maybe he's kind of a jerk. Well, the I guess 379 00:23:31,080 --> 00:23:34,440 Speaker 1: the best way, the most fair way to say something 380 00:23:34,520 --> 00:23:40,720 Speaker 1: like that is that uh, human beings right, emotional creatures 381 00:23:40,760 --> 00:23:45,040 Speaker 1: and being creatures that are wont to classify the world 382 00:23:45,080 --> 00:23:51,920 Speaker 1: into an US versus them. Uh. People can readily become 383 00:23:52,240 --> 00:23:57,560 Speaker 1: antagonistic toward anything that they see as different. And I 384 00:23:57,680 --> 00:24:01,720 Speaker 1: understand I completely agree with on on a personal level. 385 00:24:01,720 --> 00:24:03,920 Speaker 1: And guys, this is just my opinion. I completely agree 386 00:24:03,960 --> 00:24:08,919 Speaker 1: with someone who wants to remove the danger of a 387 00:24:09,040 --> 00:24:13,520 Speaker 1: con artist to charlottan or a swindler from from the world, 388 00:24:13,640 --> 00:24:16,840 Speaker 1: because it's true that that people have been taken advantage 389 00:24:16,920 --> 00:24:20,960 Speaker 1: of numerous times by someone claiming to speak with the dead, 390 00:24:21,000 --> 00:24:23,240 Speaker 1: and the dead just happened to want you to give 391 00:24:23,280 --> 00:24:29,679 Speaker 1: them money, right, that that does happen. However, as anybody 392 00:24:29,760 --> 00:24:35,800 Speaker 1: who has taken a psychology course ever, or maybe read 393 00:24:35,800 --> 00:24:39,119 Speaker 1: a book, or maybe really listen to someone once or twice, 394 00:24:39,280 --> 00:24:41,480 Speaker 1: has anybody who has ever done one of those three 395 00:24:41,520 --> 00:24:45,720 Speaker 1: things knows the way to persuade people if you really care, 396 00:24:46,160 --> 00:24:49,560 Speaker 1: if you really give enough of a well ware family show. 397 00:24:49,600 --> 00:24:53,000 Speaker 1: So I'll say crap. If it matters to you that 398 00:24:53,359 --> 00:24:56,840 Speaker 1: someone sees a truth right, or someone sees an error 399 00:24:56,880 --> 00:24:59,280 Speaker 1: of the ways, then there has to be an amount 400 00:24:59,320 --> 00:25:02,040 Speaker 1: of empathy and avolved. There's a reason that yelling at people, 401 00:25:02,119 --> 00:25:06,000 Speaker 1: bullying them, calling them names never gets them to say, oh, 402 00:25:06,080 --> 00:25:08,240 Speaker 1: you have been rude enough to me or abused me 403 00:25:08,400 --> 00:25:11,920 Speaker 1: enough that I think you are right. And Star Trek, 404 00:25:11,960 --> 00:25:14,800 Speaker 1: the next generation is better or whatever. I know, like, 405 00:25:14,880 --> 00:25:18,439 Speaker 1: it doesn't really matter what the actual content of the 406 00:25:18,560 --> 00:25:21,960 Speaker 1: of the argument process is because it's about the process, 407 00:25:22,000 --> 00:25:24,480 Speaker 1: not about the content that being said, I think it's 408 00:25:24,480 --> 00:25:26,240 Speaker 1: done the world a great service. I think it is 409 00:25:26,280 --> 00:25:30,080 Speaker 1: an unfortunate error, however, on the part of a lot 410 00:25:30,160 --> 00:25:33,480 Speaker 1: of other people who like me, are are fans of 411 00:25:33,520 --> 00:25:37,120 Speaker 1: some of this guy's work. It's just an unfortunate and 412 00:25:37,240 --> 00:25:43,199 Speaker 1: just tragic error to use the excuse that people believe 413 00:25:43,240 --> 00:25:46,200 Speaker 1: in something you don't believe in, especially if it's wrong 414 00:25:46,280 --> 00:25:48,680 Speaker 1: and you could help them, to use as an excuse 415 00:25:48,760 --> 00:25:52,280 Speaker 1: to bully someone or or to mock them. You know, 416 00:25:52,440 --> 00:25:56,080 Speaker 1: like I, I don't go to someone who believes something 417 00:25:56,760 --> 00:26:01,119 Speaker 1: that I think is um for woulish, especially tore not 418 00:26:01,200 --> 00:26:05,960 Speaker 1: hurting anybody, to yell at them or to deride them. 419 00:26:06,080 --> 00:26:10,640 Speaker 1: So that my some some part of my neural mechanism 420 00:26:10,920 --> 00:26:13,280 Speaker 1: gets a little bit of a high off of persecuting 421 00:26:13,280 --> 00:26:15,680 Speaker 1: the other. That's a sad thing. And you know, I'd 422 00:26:15,720 --> 00:26:18,520 Speaker 1: love to hear what you think about this, listeners, because 423 00:26:18,600 --> 00:26:24,440 Speaker 1: ultimately the emphasis should be on finding the truth, not 424 00:26:24,680 --> 00:26:30,240 Speaker 1: making people feel like garbage. Yeah, that's a rant. Sorry, 425 00:26:30,280 --> 00:26:32,800 Speaker 1: that's a rant. And I and I don't want people to, 426 00:26:34,640 --> 00:26:37,360 Speaker 1: you know, vilify James Randy. I've never met him personally, 427 00:26:37,359 --> 00:26:42,920 Speaker 1: and again, I think that saving innocent people from someone 428 00:26:42,960 --> 00:26:46,400 Speaker 1: who would take advantage of them is a noble thing 429 00:26:46,440 --> 00:26:50,360 Speaker 1: to do. But that's so far away. That's that's very 430 00:26:50,359 --> 00:26:53,919 Speaker 1: little to do with the biggest awards, which we we 431 00:26:54,000 --> 00:26:56,679 Speaker 1: had to include because it's it's a pretty it's a 432 00:26:56,680 --> 00:27:00,639 Speaker 1: pretty funny pun. And I'd love to see other people 433 00:27:00,800 --> 00:27:03,680 Speaker 1: who are other organizations who are rewarded this. I wonder 434 00:27:03,720 --> 00:27:06,800 Speaker 1: what his criteria is. But like we said earlier, one 435 00:27:06,800 --> 00:27:09,159 Speaker 1: of the other things that they studied here at the 436 00:27:09,320 --> 00:27:13,439 Speaker 1: ranch were these glowing lights that kept being reported, and 437 00:27:13,640 --> 00:27:16,720 Speaker 1: there are numerous attempts to explain this phenomenal, what the 438 00:27:16,720 --> 00:27:19,400 Speaker 1: heck is going on there? Most of these were hinging 439 00:27:19,560 --> 00:27:24,760 Speaker 1: on some of the more mundane explanations, like an aircraft 440 00:27:24,880 --> 00:27:27,920 Speaker 1: that would be going by with lights that are flashing 441 00:27:28,080 --> 00:27:32,200 Speaker 1: or some kind of gas. Um. You know, we've heard 442 00:27:32,240 --> 00:27:36,120 Speaker 1: a lot of these things before. Yeah, meteorological phenomenon. Yeah, 443 00:27:36,240 --> 00:27:40,359 Speaker 1: it's it's weird because you'll you'll hear these reports of 444 00:27:40,600 --> 00:27:45,560 Speaker 1: glowing orbs, right, that's something that frequently happens, and these 445 00:27:45,600 --> 00:27:50,240 Speaker 1: have been explained before. Is I mean, to paraphrase Beauty 446 00:27:50,240 --> 00:27:52,240 Speaker 1: and the Beasts, it's a tail as old as time. 447 00:27:52,320 --> 00:27:55,720 Speaker 1: Reports of will of the Whisp go back decades and 448 00:27:55,800 --> 00:27:59,560 Speaker 1: decades and decades and centuries. Well, the fact of the 449 00:27:59,600 --> 00:28:05,040 Speaker 1: matter is that as far as mainstream science goes, including 450 00:28:05,119 --> 00:28:09,159 Speaker 1: in many cases the team at NEEDS that was investigating this, 451 00:28:09,680 --> 00:28:14,720 Speaker 1: there are there is a wealth of possible explanations for 452 00:28:14,920 --> 00:28:20,520 Speaker 1: these things, none of which are necessarily extra terrestrial. And 453 00:28:20,520 --> 00:28:24,720 Speaker 1: and these guys have said before and the interviews that 454 00:28:24,760 --> 00:28:29,560 Speaker 1: they weren't necessarily out to find finger quotes or air 455 00:28:29,640 --> 00:28:32,160 Speaker 1: quotes aliens. They were they were trying to find some 456 00:28:32,240 --> 00:28:35,800 Speaker 1: sort of explanation for this. But no one has come 457 00:28:35,880 --> 00:28:40,000 Speaker 1: up with an instance of one of these alleged glowing 458 00:28:40,080 --> 00:28:44,840 Speaker 1: lights that could not be explained by something else, or 459 00:28:44,880 --> 00:28:50,280 Speaker 1: even more importantly, that could be explained by something outside 460 00:28:50,320 --> 00:28:52,560 Speaker 1: of the bounds of regular science, which you know makes 461 00:28:52,600 --> 00:28:55,000 Speaker 1: me wish that Jonathan we're here because this is one 462 00:28:55,000 --> 00:28:57,920 Speaker 1: of his favorite hobby horses to ride, Right, he would 463 00:28:57,960 --> 00:29:00,760 Speaker 1: get on this horse and oh man, you wouldn't see 464 00:29:00,800 --> 00:29:04,520 Speaker 1: him again for a week. Right, So you know, I 465 00:29:04,560 --> 00:29:07,480 Speaker 1: love that you point out it could be airplanes in 466 00:29:07,800 --> 00:29:11,480 Speaker 1: the distance, because that that tells us. Uh, that tells 467 00:29:11,560 --> 00:29:14,320 Speaker 1: us something interesting and that we go into in our 468 00:29:14,800 --> 00:29:17,880 Speaker 1: video series that also came out this week, which was great. 469 00:29:17,920 --> 00:29:21,440 Speaker 1: You mentioned at the top, Matt, that it was interesting 470 00:29:21,480 --> 00:29:26,520 Speaker 1: to you that Bigelow was investigating this stuff and also 471 00:29:27,360 --> 00:29:31,680 Speaker 1: founding an aerospace company. Oh yeah, an aerospace company out 472 00:29:31,680 --> 00:29:36,680 Speaker 1: there near Las Vegas, which I don't know. He's at 473 00:29:36,760 --> 00:29:40,880 Speaker 1: least interested in going to space, right and if if 474 00:29:40,880 --> 00:29:43,720 Speaker 1: he wants to do more research in that realm and 475 00:29:43,720 --> 00:29:47,520 Speaker 1: he wants to take human beings eventually to space, I 476 00:29:47,560 --> 00:29:52,360 Speaker 1: don't know he I'm I'm interested in this gentleman's uh 477 00:29:52,440 --> 00:29:55,640 Speaker 1: that maybe the things that he wouldn't release to the press, 478 00:29:55,680 --> 00:29:57,680 Speaker 1: that he wouldn't give out an official press release, some 479 00:29:57,760 --> 00:29:59,920 Speaker 1: of his beliefs. I want to sit down with this 480 00:30:00,080 --> 00:30:02,800 Speaker 1: dude and and talk to them one day. I'm not 481 00:30:02,920 --> 00:30:05,160 Speaker 1: a millionaire, so I don't know that's ever gonna happen. 482 00:30:05,280 --> 00:30:10,160 Speaker 1: But one can dream. Yeah, who knows? One can always dream? Right, 483 00:30:10,440 --> 00:30:12,440 Speaker 1: I want to take it a step further. This is 484 00:30:12,440 --> 00:30:14,520 Speaker 1: something we talked about, You and I have talked about 485 00:30:14,600 --> 00:30:19,480 Speaker 1: numerous times off the air, which is that many many 486 00:30:19,840 --> 00:30:25,240 Speaker 1: of the UFO reports from a few decades earlier turned 487 00:30:25,240 --> 00:30:29,960 Speaker 1: out to be top secret aircraft that the US was testing, 488 00:30:30,120 --> 00:30:34,959 Speaker 1: And for that time, they were doing phenomenal things that 489 00:30:35,040 --> 00:30:39,960 Speaker 1: were just far beyond easily a decade beyond public technology. 490 00:30:40,000 --> 00:30:44,160 Speaker 1: We're talking about craft that could fly across the United 491 00:30:44,240 --> 00:30:46,880 Speaker 1: States in less than half the time that would take 492 00:30:46,920 --> 00:30:53,400 Speaker 1: a normal or a publicly known aircraft. So it's completely 493 00:30:53,440 --> 00:30:57,080 Speaker 1: possible that some of these things that are being seen 494 00:30:57,240 --> 00:31:01,520 Speaker 1: are actually aircraft being tested, you know. Oh yeah, And 495 00:31:01,640 --> 00:31:05,240 Speaker 1: especially in the late nineties like that man the tech was. 496 00:31:05,680 --> 00:31:07,880 Speaker 1: We may not even know some of the things that 497 00:31:07,960 --> 00:31:11,040 Speaker 1: were being developed at that time. I mean, honestly, we 498 00:31:11,040 --> 00:31:13,760 Speaker 1: we may not know yet, right like when everybody found 499 00:31:13,760 --> 00:31:19,920 Speaker 1: out that stealth helicopters exist, crash. Wait what yeah? So 500 00:31:20,360 --> 00:31:24,600 Speaker 1: so it's completely possible. Just because there isn't any evidence 501 00:31:24,640 --> 00:31:28,480 Speaker 1: at this point that it's something supernatural doesn't mean that 502 00:31:28,520 --> 00:31:32,280 Speaker 1: there is not um, there's not secrecy of foot you 503 00:31:32,280 --> 00:31:36,360 Speaker 1: know what I mean. And at this point, if we 504 00:31:36,400 --> 00:31:38,680 Speaker 1: sum it up, if we sum up skin Walker Ranch, 505 00:31:38,760 --> 00:31:41,720 Speaker 1: then as near as we could find, it seems that 506 00:31:41,800 --> 00:31:47,320 Speaker 1: the investigations of needs, which disbanded, uh, the investigations of 507 00:31:47,480 --> 00:31:50,840 Speaker 1: needs bore little in the way of inarguable evidence, at 508 00:31:50,920 --> 00:31:54,200 Speaker 1: least in the case of Sherman or skin Walker Ranch. 509 00:31:54,720 --> 00:31:57,400 Speaker 1: And like I said earlier, you're gonna hear anecdotes. If 510 00:31:57,440 --> 00:32:00,200 Speaker 1: you just type in skin Walker Ranch into any search bar, 511 00:32:00,320 --> 00:32:03,480 Speaker 1: you're going to find all kinds of fun anecdotes that 512 00:32:03,600 --> 00:32:06,360 Speaker 1: make me. It takes me back to my X Files 513 00:32:06,400 --> 00:32:07,840 Speaker 1: days where I just want to go, oh, man, I 514 00:32:07,920 --> 00:32:11,240 Speaker 1: love this, this is so cool. Hopefully there's some kind 515 00:32:11,280 --> 00:32:14,160 Speaker 1: of shred of evidence that I can hang my beliefs on. 516 00:32:15,000 --> 00:32:17,720 Speaker 1: But you're really not going to find it. They didn't. 517 00:32:17,720 --> 00:32:21,080 Speaker 1: They didn't find any kind of body or unidentified animal 518 00:32:21,520 --> 00:32:24,560 Speaker 1: they could explain these the cattle mutilations that they were 519 00:32:24,560 --> 00:32:29,120 Speaker 1: looking into, um and really they didn't make any video 520 00:32:29,200 --> 00:32:33,640 Speaker 1: that would satisfactorily show some kind of this inexplicable light 521 00:32:33,640 --> 00:32:37,520 Speaker 1: that they kept talking about that would just it's just 522 00:32:37,640 --> 00:32:40,560 Speaker 1: it's it's so disappointing to me. Ben, Yeah, I get it. 523 00:32:40,600 --> 00:32:43,480 Speaker 1: And there's a quote that I'd like to pull from 524 00:32:43,520 --> 00:32:47,600 Speaker 1: an A M A and ask me anything thread that 525 00:32:46,960 --> 00:32:52,600 Speaker 1: uh that George Knapp participated in on Reddit. This this 526 00:32:52,680 --> 00:32:57,200 Speaker 1: response when when he was asked why I can't exactly remember, 527 00:32:57,440 --> 00:33:00,480 Speaker 1: but I think he was asked about skin Wall Ranch 528 00:33:00,600 --> 00:33:04,120 Speaker 1: when his experiences were like because he went there numerous times, right, 529 00:33:04,160 --> 00:33:08,440 Speaker 1: And he was asked about um in some very polite way, 530 00:33:08,480 --> 00:33:11,680 Speaker 1: about evidence lack thereof, and he said that he felt 531 00:33:11,720 --> 00:33:15,640 Speaker 1: at times there was some sort of intelligence that seemed 532 00:33:15,760 --> 00:33:20,240 Speaker 1: aware of things, was one step ahead of everybody. And 533 00:33:20,680 --> 00:33:24,560 Speaker 1: if and this is a huge gargangeline Purple Mountains of 534 00:33:24,600 --> 00:33:28,240 Speaker 1: Majesty's size, if there is something bizarre foot at skim 535 00:33:28,320 --> 00:33:32,200 Speaker 1: Walker Ranch, it has yet to be proven, unless, of course, 536 00:33:32,280 --> 00:33:37,280 Speaker 1: there's something. I guess the ranch or whatever powers behind 537 00:33:37,320 --> 00:33:41,960 Speaker 1: it don't want us to know that idea of an 538 00:33:42,000 --> 00:33:44,880 Speaker 1: intelligent being that is doing all of these things. It's 539 00:33:44,920 --> 00:33:50,320 Speaker 1: behind the mutilations, it's behind the lights. I love it. 540 00:33:50,560 --> 00:33:53,800 Speaker 1: The kid in me loves it. And one day, hopefully 541 00:33:53,920 --> 00:33:56,800 Speaker 1: it will be proven by the third wave of researchers 542 00:33:56,800 --> 00:34:00,720 Speaker 1: that go and stay at the Sherman Ranch one day perhaps. 543 00:34:01,680 --> 00:34:05,080 Speaker 1: Uh So, what what do you think about these stories 544 00:34:05,120 --> 00:34:07,960 Speaker 1: about skin Walker Ranch? Is this just a bunch of 545 00:34:08,000 --> 00:34:13,279 Speaker 1: WHOI Is there something genuinely strange and disturbing going on? 546 00:34:13,520 --> 00:34:16,600 Speaker 1: And I know these uh, I know this will probably 547 00:34:16,640 --> 00:34:20,319 Speaker 1: be a bit of a divisive topic for us. Uh 548 00:34:20,440 --> 00:34:24,000 Speaker 1: because I I think this stuff is fascinating and I 549 00:34:24,040 --> 00:34:27,799 Speaker 1: love seeing there is some sort of explanation. And if 550 00:34:27,840 --> 00:34:30,080 Speaker 1: you have to speculate, that's fine to let us know 551 00:34:30,440 --> 00:34:33,920 Speaker 1: what you think it could possibly be. Uh. If you 552 00:34:34,120 --> 00:34:39,800 Speaker 1: all are like me, um, profoundly disappointed that people don't 553 00:34:39,880 --> 00:34:46,040 Speaker 1: actually turn into animals, whether whether through some horrible transgression 554 00:34:46,239 --> 00:34:49,160 Speaker 1: or some dark right, then uh let me know about 555 00:34:49,160 --> 00:34:52,359 Speaker 1: that too. We can both complain together online. You can 556 00:34:52,400 --> 00:34:55,160 Speaker 1: find me on Facebook. I do the Facebook and I 557 00:34:55,200 --> 00:34:58,360 Speaker 1: do the Twitter here uh, and you can see a 558 00:34:58,400 --> 00:35:01,480 Speaker 1: lot of stories I find that don't typically make it 559 00:35:01,640 --> 00:35:04,520 Speaker 1: onto the air or on the news. Matt and I 560 00:35:04,520 --> 00:35:08,480 Speaker 1: are both into uncaught serial killers. And just for an example, 561 00:35:08,600 --> 00:35:11,520 Speaker 1: one of the recent stories that we posted we're recording 562 00:35:11,560 --> 00:35:16,440 Speaker 1: this uh involves a possible uncaught serial killer in a 563 00:35:16,600 --> 00:35:21,160 Speaker 1: small town in Ohio. So do visit us at Facebook 564 00:35:21,200 --> 00:35:25,320 Speaker 1: dot com forward slash conspiracy stuff to check that out. 565 00:35:26,160 --> 00:35:29,880 Speaker 1: And I, oh, we been that freaking sound is back again. 566 00:35:29,960 --> 00:35:32,400 Speaker 1: You can only mean one thing. It must be our 567 00:35:32,560 --> 00:35:38,120 Speaker 1: movement with hello, hey, hey know how's it going? Man? 568 00:35:38,239 --> 00:35:40,640 Speaker 1: That's going okay? How are you guys doing all right? 569 00:35:40,719 --> 00:35:44,800 Speaker 1: Doing all right? Uh? So the question for you and 570 00:35:44,880 --> 00:35:47,880 Speaker 1: you might have some questions to uh, if you could 571 00:35:48,400 --> 00:35:53,360 Speaker 1: just at will transform into an animal, any animal, what 572 00:35:53,400 --> 00:35:57,000 Speaker 1: would what would it be? Oh? Any any um? I 573 00:35:57,000 --> 00:36:00,320 Speaker 1: guess we should qualify any nonfictional fictional animal. Also, no 574 00:36:00,640 --> 00:36:04,160 Speaker 1: like dragons, which is clearly the best one. No final 575 00:36:04,200 --> 00:36:07,480 Speaker 1: fantasy summons. You know, my answer might surprise you, Ben, 576 00:36:07,880 --> 00:36:11,480 Speaker 1: because you you know about me that I hate and 577 00:36:11,600 --> 00:36:15,319 Speaker 1: slash I'm terrified of birds. But that just seems like 578 00:36:15,400 --> 00:36:18,680 Speaker 1: the most obvious go to thing because it would be 579 00:36:18,920 --> 00:36:22,400 Speaker 1: for transportation alone. I wouldn't have to book flights anymore. 580 00:36:22,440 --> 00:36:24,600 Speaker 1: You could just you know, turn into an eagle and 581 00:36:24,920 --> 00:36:26,680 Speaker 1: go to the keys or whatever. You know, be some 582 00:36:26,719 --> 00:36:29,000 Speaker 1: pretty long flights though, I know, but you get eased 583 00:36:29,040 --> 00:36:30,520 Speaker 1: to it, right, I guess yeah, I guess it depends 584 00:36:30,560 --> 00:36:32,120 Speaker 1: on what kind of bird you would be, Like would 585 00:36:32,160 --> 00:36:34,680 Speaker 1: you be a migratory bird, would you be a frigate bird? 586 00:36:34,840 --> 00:36:36,959 Speaker 1: I believe they're the ones that can stay in air 587 00:36:37,160 --> 00:36:40,120 Speaker 1: for days at a time. But yeah, one of those. 588 00:36:40,280 --> 00:36:42,839 Speaker 1: But they're terrible on the ground. Yeah, they're pretty bad. Well, 589 00:36:42,880 --> 00:36:43,920 Speaker 1: you don't have to be a bird in the gray 590 00:36:43,960 --> 00:36:47,279 Speaker 1: you turn back into it a person? Is that? Well? 591 00:36:47,320 --> 00:36:50,200 Speaker 1: What about you met oh gosh, I would I would 592 00:36:50,200 --> 00:36:54,479 Speaker 1: probably go with small, small fox. The small fox. Yeah, 593 00:36:54,520 --> 00:36:57,120 Speaker 1: just a tiny little fox. It's cool, man. I just 594 00:36:57,160 --> 00:36:59,440 Speaker 1: want to make videos. I would set up a camera, 595 00:36:59,520 --> 00:37:02,560 Speaker 1: turn into small fox, make a little fox sounds for 596 00:37:02,640 --> 00:37:06,040 Speaker 1: the video, like, turn back into human, stop the recording, 597 00:37:06,040 --> 00:37:09,000 Speaker 1: and then upload it to YouTube. Take over YouTube. That 598 00:37:09,000 --> 00:37:11,480 Speaker 1: would be great. I gotta watch out for those old 599 00:37:11,600 --> 00:37:17,160 Speaker 1: rich dudes on horseback wearing the red coats. Okay, I changed. 600 00:37:17,440 --> 00:37:21,279 Speaker 1: It makes me think of invisible. Yes. So I don't 601 00:37:21,320 --> 00:37:24,360 Speaker 1: know what which one I would be. It's such a 602 00:37:24,560 --> 00:37:28,279 Speaker 1: such a big choice. I guess would be kind of 603 00:37:28,320 --> 00:37:32,920 Speaker 1: cool to be a whale, but I don't know. I 604 00:37:32,920 --> 00:37:35,400 Speaker 1: don't know if I have the voice for it. Uh. 605 00:37:36,600 --> 00:37:40,719 Speaker 1: I asked my asked my girlfriend recently without hesitation. She 606 00:37:40,920 --> 00:37:44,680 Speaker 1: was like a house cat turned into a cat. I said, 607 00:37:44,719 --> 00:37:46,920 Speaker 1: what would you do? And she said I would learn secrets, 608 00:37:47,400 --> 00:37:50,120 Speaker 1: which is which is a great answer, but I completely 609 00:37:50,160 --> 00:37:52,560 Speaker 1: don't understand that and it makes me not trust cat. 610 00:37:52,640 --> 00:37:55,080 Speaker 1: Would you do as a as a whale? As a whale, 611 00:37:55,120 --> 00:37:58,560 Speaker 1: I don't like, just hang out, swim around and I 612 00:37:58,600 --> 00:38:02,319 Speaker 1: guess talk trash a large whale or like probably man, 613 00:38:02,360 --> 00:38:04,680 Speaker 1: if you're gonna go whale, go full whale, don't go 614 00:38:05,120 --> 00:38:07,560 Speaker 1: eight and a half yards. You know, I don't know. Man, 615 00:38:07,680 --> 00:38:09,719 Speaker 1: more I think about it, the more whale seems like 616 00:38:10,040 --> 00:38:14,120 Speaker 1: a lame answer. Maybe I don't know. A bird would 617 00:38:14,160 --> 00:38:16,560 Speaker 1: be cool. I always you know you know this about 618 00:38:16,719 --> 00:38:19,080 Speaker 1: about me, guys, Like I've gone through period where I 619 00:38:19,120 --> 00:38:23,399 Speaker 1: really want to befriend Corvid's like crows or ravens, because 620 00:38:23,400 --> 00:38:26,400 Speaker 1: they're so very intelligent and you can teach them to 621 00:38:26,440 --> 00:38:29,960 Speaker 1: recognize you, and they'll teach they're young to recognize you. Um, 622 00:38:30,120 --> 00:38:31,839 Speaker 1: but I think I just want to hang with them. 623 00:38:31,880 --> 00:38:34,000 Speaker 1: I want to be like they're token human. I don't 624 00:38:34,040 --> 00:38:36,839 Speaker 1: wanna You don't think they would pick on you, like 625 00:38:37,440 --> 00:38:40,759 Speaker 1: I feel like crows would just hate me. Why is that, man, 626 00:38:40,800 --> 00:38:42,879 Speaker 1: you're really good with I mean, you're good with people. 627 00:38:42,880 --> 00:38:44,719 Speaker 1: I assume it goes to birds just because I'm not. 628 00:38:45,080 --> 00:38:47,160 Speaker 1: I don't know, I'm not a chrow man. I think 629 00:38:47,200 --> 00:38:49,399 Speaker 1: they would just they would drag on me all they'd 630 00:38:49,400 --> 00:38:52,279 Speaker 1: write jokes. Well there because you know there's some kind 631 00:38:52,280 --> 00:38:55,640 Speaker 1: of bilberr crow or raven and he's the one that 632 00:38:55,640 --> 00:38:58,160 Speaker 1: I would end up hanging out with. The bilber just 633 00:38:58,200 --> 00:39:00,600 Speaker 1: wrang on me all day, so so know you would 634 00:39:00,640 --> 00:39:03,040 Speaker 1: be an eagle. Huh. You know, I have to give 635 00:39:03,080 --> 00:39:04,560 Speaker 1: us some more thought. That's just the first thing that 636 00:39:04,600 --> 00:39:06,319 Speaker 1: comes to mind. Like I said, just if I'm being 637 00:39:06,480 --> 00:39:11,000 Speaker 1: purely functional about my skin walking, yeah, I feel like 638 00:39:11,080 --> 00:39:13,880 Speaker 1: flight would be a little bit better than than swimming 639 00:39:13,960 --> 00:39:18,239 Speaker 1: to and and whales are incredibly intelligent, but you know, 640 00:39:19,120 --> 00:39:21,120 Speaker 1: you're kind of limited in what you can do. You're 641 00:39:21,160 --> 00:39:24,720 Speaker 1: also a pretty big target, you know. Oh that's right. Yeah. 642 00:39:24,920 --> 00:39:28,040 Speaker 1: Did you know Japan is going to unilaterally begin it's 643 00:39:28,040 --> 00:39:33,239 Speaker 1: whaling program again? So maybe poor timing on my part 644 00:39:34,280 --> 00:39:36,799 Speaker 1: too soon? All right, well, you know what, let's check 645 00:39:36,800 --> 00:39:40,680 Speaker 1: back in next week unless unless you've got anything. No, 646 00:39:40,840 --> 00:39:42,360 Speaker 1: I just did. The one thing that I guess I 647 00:39:42,400 --> 00:39:44,520 Speaker 1: was thinking about is do you guys both read or 648 00:39:44,560 --> 00:39:47,879 Speaker 1: watch the Game of Thrones? The see Oh yeah, yeah, 649 00:39:47,920 --> 00:39:52,000 Speaker 1: there's the skin changers or whatever in that show, and 650 00:39:52,000 --> 00:39:54,560 Speaker 1: and I guess it's not they're not exactly transforming, but 651 00:39:54,600 --> 00:39:59,120 Speaker 1: they're sort of inhabiting, you know, it's totem creatures. I 652 00:39:59,200 --> 00:40:00,920 Speaker 1: just kind of felt like there had to be a 653 00:40:00,920 --> 00:40:05,000 Speaker 1: parallel between the terms skin change and yeah, yeah, that 654 00:40:05,080 --> 00:40:07,319 Speaker 1: would be you know, that would be at least an 655 00:40:07,320 --> 00:40:09,680 Speaker 1: influence pretty cool. I don't know. Would it be better 656 00:40:09,760 --> 00:40:13,200 Speaker 1: to have an animal that like you, inhabit the body of, 657 00:40:13,320 --> 00:40:15,600 Speaker 1: or would be better to change into one, because if 658 00:40:15,640 --> 00:40:19,120 Speaker 1: you think about it, the drawback to that kind of 659 00:40:19,120 --> 00:40:20,920 Speaker 1: thing is you always end up naked at the end. 660 00:40:21,160 --> 00:40:23,520 Speaker 1: That's true. That does seem really inconvenient. I think the 661 00:40:23,600 --> 00:40:26,680 Speaker 1: vulnerabilities of changing into an animal, especially if it's a 662 00:40:26,760 --> 00:40:30,160 Speaker 1: much smaller animal, I think that's dangerous. So being able 663 00:40:30,200 --> 00:40:34,560 Speaker 1: to warp into one, but then you leave your physical body, 664 00:40:34,600 --> 00:40:39,080 Speaker 1: you know, if it's unattended, someone could always you know, exercise. 665 00:40:39,360 --> 00:40:41,319 Speaker 1: Maybe I should stick with the ocean so that we 666 00:40:41,400 --> 00:40:44,480 Speaker 1: have this whole land air sea thing going on for 667 00:40:44,760 --> 00:40:51,160 Speaker 1: like Superhero a whale and eagle in a tiny fox. Yeah, 668 00:40:51,239 --> 00:40:53,520 Speaker 1: I'm still I'm not sold on whale. Maybe just a 669 00:40:53,600 --> 00:40:57,080 Speaker 1: sharp oh an octopus? Oh man, those things are cool. 670 00:40:57,320 --> 00:40:59,279 Speaker 1: We are pretty cool. I don't know. I don't know. 671 00:40:59,360 --> 00:41:02,920 Speaker 1: That's a little bit love crafty and okay, guys, so 672 00:41:03,080 --> 00:41:05,120 Speaker 1: let us know. I guess in addition, what kind of 673 00:41:05,160 --> 00:41:08,360 Speaker 1: animal you would want to transform into. We're just curious. 674 00:41:08,520 --> 00:41:11,279 Speaker 1: We're just no one's no one's getting graded. We're not 675 00:41:11,320 --> 00:41:14,759 Speaker 1: gonna be We're not gonna read your email or I 676 00:41:14,800 --> 00:41:17,400 Speaker 1: won't read your tweet or your Facebook and think that's 677 00:41:17,440 --> 00:41:20,520 Speaker 1: a dumb animal or whatever, because, let's face it, a 678 00:41:20,600 --> 00:41:23,680 Speaker 1: whale was kind of out there. It's not the most practical. Yeah, 679 00:41:23,680 --> 00:41:26,600 Speaker 1: and who's who's kidding the fox? Come on?

Very interested though, 681 00:41:30,920 --> 00:41:34,160 Speaker 1: because that that really is a childhood thing, right, the 682 00:41:34,320 --> 00:41:41,160 Speaker 1: idea of being embodying an animal, Oh yeah, absolutely, from 683 00:41:41,640 --> 00:41:46,239 Speaker 1: people have animals with which they identify on a spiritual 684 00:41:46,320 --> 00:41:50,359 Speaker 1: level to right, um, a certain spirit animal and maybe 685 00:41:50,400 --> 00:41:54,239 Speaker 1: a totem of some sort that people worship. Uh so, yeah, 686 00:41:54,280 --> 00:41:57,480 Speaker 1: i'd be I'd be interested to hear about that. Oh 687 00:41:57,560 --> 00:41:59,920 Speaker 1: what about a spider? What if we's changed into a 688 00:42:00,040 --> 00:42:04,520 Speaker 1: spin Yeah? Okay, one time this is I don't know 689 00:42:04,560 --> 00:42:06,360 Speaker 1: if I ever told you this, and I don't know 690 00:42:06,400 --> 00:42:07,839 Speaker 1: if it's the right with ho say it on air. 691 00:42:07,920 --> 00:42:10,560 Speaker 1: But just one more thing.
