Speaker 1: Ready, you will be amazed by the wizard of Weird
Speaker 1: Strange Things with Joshua Warren. I am Joshua P. Warren,
Speaker 1: and each week on this show, I'll be bringing a
Speaker 1: brand new mind blowing content, news, exercises, and weird experiments
Speaker 1: you can do at home, and a lot more on
Speaker 1: this edition of the show. Did my friend just contact
Speaker 1: me from the other side? Yes, I'm talking about a
Speaker 1: friend who recently died and I believe he may have
Speaker 1: contacted me from the other side. I have been trying
Speaker 1: to wrap my head around this. It's amazing. I believe
Speaker 1: the only person I have told about this is my
Speaker 1: wife Lauren, I've been just sort of waiting to see
Speaker 1: if anything else happened and to sort of think about
Speaker 1: this a bit more before sharing it with the rest
Speaker 1: of the world. And well, here we go, because I
Speaker 1: want to see if you think this is as remarkable
Speaker 1: as I do. It's a heck of a story, so
Speaker 1: I'm going to kind of take my time telling it.
Speaker 1: You may or may not know that I have worked
Speaker 1: in broadcasting for many years, and back when I was
Speaker 1: living in my hometown of Asheville, North Carolina, I created
Speaker 1: and hosted a radio program called Speaking of Strange. I
Speaker 1: hosted it at news Radio five SEVENTYNC the Talk of
Speaker 1: the Mountains, and it was a great show. It ran
Speaker 1: for many years. We had a lot of fun, and
Speaker 1: from time to time I would produce events that would
Speaker 1: tie in with the show. And by the way, if
Speaker 1: you've never heard that program, there are still some of
Speaker 1: the old podcasts from that show if you go to
Speaker 1: Speaking of Strange dot com. And toward the end, when
Speaker 1: I moved to Puerto Rico, I asked some other friends
Speaker 1: to host the show for me, so some of the
Speaker 1: last ones are not hosted by me. But if you
Speaker 1: dig deeper, you'll find you know, ninety nine percent of
Speaker 1: them are are hosted by me, and there's some really
Speaker 1: good stuff in there and some pretty funny wild stuff
Speaker 1: there at Speaking of Strange dot com. So I at
Speaker 1: that time was always excited about producing opportunities to interact
Speaker 1: in person with the listeners, and in two thousand and four,
Speaker 1: I think I had the idea to create an event
Speaker 1: called the Speaking of Strange UFO Experience. And that is
Speaker 1: because I would receive so many pictures and videos of
Speaker 1: supposed UFOs it became, you know, overwhelming to try to
Speaker 1: analyze them and give a knowledgeable opinion. My friend Mobius,
Speaker 1: who was a producer of the show, he is a
Speaker 1: much greater expert than I when it comes to analyzing
Speaker 1: these things, and so we would always discuss what the
Speaker 1: options were when we get these images. And at some
Speaker 1: point I said, how do we know definitively what we're
Speaker 1: looking at here is not a balloon or some kind
Speaker 1: of an optical illusion, or it's some kind of a
Speaker 1: remote control plane or what? And I said, why don't
Speaker 1: we have a contest where we go out here, find
Speaker 1: a remote place in the mountains, and we just invite
Speaker 1: all of the hobbyists and engineers and UFO enthusiasts, we
Speaker 1: can to build their own version of a fake US
Speaker 1: and to come out and we'll fly them and compete
Speaker 1: and see who creates the most convincing one, and we
Speaker 1: can shoot footage of that, and then we will have
Speaker 1: a reference that we can use when we're analyzing things.
Speaker 1: We can say, oh, this looks a lot like a
Speaker 1: Chinese lantern, or you know, this looks a lot like
Speaker 1: some kind of you know, like a helium balloon or whatever.
Speaker 1: And so the only rules were it has to be safe.
Speaker 1: Safety is number one. I guess, it has to fly,
Speaker 1: and it ultimately has got to I guess, really, you
Speaker 1: know what, I think those are the only two real rules.
Speaker 1: Then it has to be able to fly on its
Speaker 1: own independently, and it has to be safe. That was
Speaker 1: pretty much about all there was to it. Other than that,
Speaker 1: it's kind of like, let's your imagination run wild. And
Speaker 1: we didn't know that first year if anybody was going
Speaker 1: to show up. I mean, I went out and I
Speaker 1: rented this big community center and Barnardsville, North Carolina called
Speaker 1: the Big Ivy Community Center place where you can imagine
Speaker 1: it's like any other community center where people would go
Speaker 1: and have picnics and have a band. And so I
Speaker 1: rented that place and boy, I'm telling you, people showed
Speaker 1: up from all over. I mean, I would say for
Speaker 1: hundreds of miles, from hundreds of miles around. People showed
Speaker 1: up and we just had a blast. And we saw
Speaker 1: every type of method of propulsion you can imagine, you know,
Speaker 1: not only your regular balloons, but like I say, the
Speaker 1: Chinese balloons and rockets and kites and remote control helicopters.
Speaker 1: And it's just like people were so incredibly creative. The
Speaker 1: whole thing. It had an aura like like a fireworks
Speaker 1: show around it, and I was just all struck by
Speaker 1: some of the effects that some of these these ingenious
Speaker 1: people could create using a very small budget, really, you know,
Speaker 1: often no more than a couple hundred dollars, in some
Speaker 1: cases less than one hundred. Well we did that for
Speaker 1: i'd say four or five years every year, and most
Speaker 1: of the time the champion was this man from Tennessee
Speaker 1: named Jeff Wilson. And he was so good. You know,
Speaker 1: Jeff would come out, he'd drive out from Tennessee with
Speaker 1: his wife, Debbie, and you never knew he had all
Speaker 1: kinds of interesting gadgets, and he was that kind of guy,
Speaker 1: you know, my kind of guy, gadget kind of guy,
Speaker 1: and you never knew exactly what his craft was going
Speaker 1: to look like. I think it was his very first
Speaker 1: year he produced this big triangular craft and it basically
Speaker 1: I think there's a UFO out there, famous one called
Speaker 1: like the Belgian triangles. It reminded all of us of that.
Speaker 1: And he got this thing up in the air. He
Speaker 1: just attached black helium balloons to it best I recall,
Speaker 1: and he got this thing up into the air, and
Speaker 1: then he had a remote control and he could use
Speaker 1: this remote control to create these different stages where once
Speaker 1: this thing got up in the air, it would release
Speaker 1: smoke and fog and then it would and then he
Speaker 1: had lasers that would shoot down and he could scan
Speaker 1: the ground with the lasers. I mean, it looked amazing
Speaker 1: if you walked outside and you saw that. For one thing,
Speaker 1: as far as the size of it, it was probably
Speaker 1: like three feet by three feet by three feet, you know,
Speaker 1: a triangle. But if it's up there in the sky,
Speaker 1: you can't really tell how big it is at night.
Speaker 1: And I mean, if you saw that, you would swear
Speaker 1: you were looking at some other worldly craft, especially back
Speaker 1: in those days, and it was so amazing that, believe
Speaker 1: it or not. Afterward, pictures of his fake UFO made
Speaker 1: it out there onto the Internet without explanation, and media
Speaker 1: outlets around the world started running stories saying this was
Speaker 1: a real UFO, and there was one story that said
Speaker 1: it was captured in Ireland. I think probably my favorite
Speaker 1: one is there was an issue of Fate magazine that
Speaker 1: came out right after that and they had a painting
Speaker 1: on the front that looked just like his triangle. I
Speaker 1: can only imagine it was his craft. To this day,
Speaker 1: to this day, I kid you not, and Mobius will
Speaker 1: tell you the same thing. There are people who contact
Speaker 1: me and they are making documentaries or whatever, and they say,
Speaker 1: what's the story behind this UFO? Want to talk about,
Speaker 1: you know, the sighting and they and they always have
Speaker 1: heard a different version of it. And when I tell them, oh, well, look,
Speaker 1: this was actually a fake. This was a prop that
Speaker 1: we used in a contest. You know, a lot of
Speaker 1: times they don't believe it, they don't want to hear it.
Speaker 1: And in fact, Jeff got such a kick out of
Speaker 1: this that he gave me that very first UFO that
Speaker 1: he made, so that I could put it in my
Speaker 1: Asheville Mystery Museum that I had at the time, where
Speaker 1: it was on display all those years. I now have
Speaker 1: it in storage in uh in Asheville, and that's one
Speaker 1: of the things that I'm going to be bringing here
Speaker 1: to Las Vegas in the near future. Well, every year
Speaker 1: he blew us away, and he was just such a
Speaker 1: good guy. He and Debbie were just great people. And
Speaker 1: at one point, you know, I did an event out
Speaker 1: here in Vegas, and he drove all the way out
Speaker 1: here by himself from to a seat to Las Vegas
Speaker 1: to spend one evening when I'm dinged this event. And
Speaker 1: then later on he and Debbie came out together and
Speaker 1: went out to dinner one evening with Lauren and myself.
Speaker 1: We just always had a really fun, wonderful time. And
Speaker 1: then he contacted me last year in March of twenty
Speaker 1: twenty four to tell me that he had stage four cancer,
Speaker 1: that it had it had spread to his lungs, skin, liver, bones,
Speaker 1: and we made a special arrangement. When we come back
Speaker 1: from this break, I'm going to tell you for the
Speaker 1: first time what that arrangement was. And I'm already getting
Speaker 1: the goosebumps. I'm already getting the ice water down my back,
Speaker 1: the hair standing up my neck. Seriously. Uh. You know what,

Speaker 1: Joshua P. Warren dot com. That's me. You're listening to
Speaker 1: Strange Things on the iHeartRadio and Coast to Coast AM
Speaker 1: Paranormal Podcast Network, and I'll be right back. Welcome back
Speaker 1: to Strange Things fall the iHeartRadio and Coast to Coast
Speaker 1: AM Paranormal Podcast Network. I am your host, the Wizard
Speaker 1: of Weird, Joshua pe Warren, beaming into your wormhole brain
Speaker 1: from my studio in Sin City, Las Vegas, Nevada, where
Speaker 1: every day is golden and every night is silver. I
Speaker 1: Gietato Zoom talking to you about my friend who recently
Speaker 1: passed away, Jeff Wilson, champion UFO maker at my event,
Speaker 1: famous especially for his big, amazing triangles that he would
Speaker 1: float up there to this guy that would make you
Speaker 1: believe you were about to be abducted. I'm looking at
Speaker 1: this message that I received from him March fifteenth of
Speaker 1: twenty twenty four at one fifty eight pm. He was,
Speaker 1: I believe, fifty six years old at this time. He said, Hey, man,
Speaker 1: don't know if you saw my post on Facebook, but
Speaker 1: I have stage four cancer. Just want to let you
Speaker 1: know some of my best times were at the UFO contest.
Speaker 1: So I wrote him back and said, damn, I'm sorry
Speaker 1: to hear this, And you know, of course, I told
Speaker 1: him how much that I enjoyed our friendship and thanked
Speaker 1: him for this and that you know how it goes.
Speaker 1: But but then at the same time, you know, he
Speaker 1: he's a guy like me. He's a curious person. He's
Speaker 1: interested in ghosts and UFOs in the afterlife, and I
Speaker 1: knew that I could preach this subject with him and
Speaker 1: I said, I said, well, look, if you are to
Speaker 1: pass on, let's establish a secret word that you can
Speaker 1: use to connect with me from the other side. What
Speaker 1: is an unusual word you will remember? Now, let me
Speaker 1: pause for a second and tell you may know this
Speaker 1: is not the first time I have done this. I
Speaker 1: have done this with a number of friends over the
Speaker 1: years who've passed on. There has only been one time
Speaker 1: when I may have gotten a result from it. But
Speaker 1: I can't be one hundred percent sure, and that is
Speaker 1: because my wife may have just guessed the word because
Speaker 1: she also knew the person. No sense in getting it
Speaker 1: off into that story. But I've never this is This
Speaker 1: is very different kind of thing where I just say, okay,
Speaker 1: what is an unusual word? You'll remember it? So and somehow.
Speaker 1: The idea, of course, will be that after he's dead,
Speaker 1: he will try to communicate this word to me in
Speaker 1: some way. So he wrote me back and he said,
Speaker 1: give me a word. So I thought about it for
Speaker 1: a little bit, and I thought, well, so you know,
Speaker 1: what's something that is appropriate to h they'd be easy
Speaker 1: to remember. And I said, how about this, given your
Speaker 1: UFO models, here is a word that's simple and memorable.
Speaker 1: Triangle triangle, and he wrote me back and he said,
Speaker 1: triangle is perfect. And then he said that video is
Speaker 1: still getting lots of hits from people saying it's real.
Speaker 1: So I told him, I said, please be sure not
Speaker 1: to tell another soul that our word is triangle, and
Speaker 1: that way I will be certain I'm not being misled
Speaker 1: if we connect, and he swore he would not tell anyone. Well,
Speaker 1: as I told you that cancer kept spreading over the
Speaker 1: past year, and I got a text on Valentine's Day,
Speaker 1: February the fourteenth of twenty twenty five from his wife
Speaker 1: Debbie to let me know that Jeff had passed away
Speaker 1: on February the eighth. He was fifty seven years old.
Speaker 1: So that was that was a sad start to Valentine's Day.
Speaker 1: But I immediately started thinking, I wonder if he's going to
Speaker 1: try to connect with me somehow. Now told Debbie how
Speaker 1: sorry I was. I'll get back to that in a minute.
Speaker 1: After I texted with her for a little bit and
Speaker 1: this was I'd just woken up and you know, I
Speaker 1: have weird hours and checked her text messages. I don't
Speaker 1: know what it was sometime early in the after noon
Speaker 1: and Valentine's Day was on a Friday, and this show
Speaker 1: Strange Things comes out every Friday, and so my routine
Speaker 1: is to wake up and check my text messages or whatever,
Speaker 1: and then I get on the computer and make sure
Speaker 1: that the show has been uploaded properly by iHeart, and
Speaker 1: if everything looks good, then I sit down and I
Speaker 1: start promoting the show through social media, and I send
Speaker 1: out my newsletter and kind of let everybody know that
Speaker 1: the new show is posted. So right as soon as
Speaker 1: I finished texting with her, I sat down at my
Speaker 1: computer to start promoting the day's show and I went
Speaker 1: to Twitter, which they now call X And every almost
Speaker 1: every Friday, Coast to Coast AM has a little promo
Speaker 1: that they will put out there on their Twitter feed
Speaker 1: to publicize the Paranormal Podcast Network, and it'll have a
Speaker 1: link to my show and Sundra's show and Captain Ron show.
Speaker 1: And there's always you know, like a little picture of
Speaker 1: some kind there, and it's usually something creepy, you know,
Speaker 1: some shadowy ghostly figure, or it might be you know, Bigfoot,
Speaker 1: or it might be like close up eyes of some
Speaker 1: little alien, or you just never know what they're going
Speaker 1: to post there. But it's always some kind of creepy thing, right.
Speaker 1: So as soon as I went to Twitter, I got
Speaker 1: a notification that Coast to Coast AM had put out
Speaker 1: the promo for that day. And what I usually do
Speaker 1: is I'll retweet that and then I will write my
Speaker 1: own original tweet with well, here's what today's show is.
Speaker 1: And I have nothing to do with the folks who
Speaker 1: operate the Twitter Paige, I don't even know who does it.
Speaker 1: I mean, I know who some of the tech guys are.
Speaker 1: I can take some guesses, but I'm not a part
Speaker 1: of that process. I check my social media and I
Speaker 1: see what they put out there, and I'm just as
Speaker 1: surprised as anybody else. So here's the promo that they
Speaker 1: put out for that day, Valentine's Day, February fourteenth, twenty
Speaker 1: twenty five. They posted a picture, and let me describe
Speaker 1: this picture to you. There is a blue, surreal, flat,
Speaker 1: peaceful landscape. It's a bit hazy, a bit dreamy, and
Speaker 1: there is a man standing there alone and we see
Speaker 1: him from behind gazing off into the distance at the horizon,
Speaker 1: and in front of him in the sky is a
Speaker 1: single object. It's a huge glowing triangle I cannot imagine
Speaker 1: a better portrayal of Jeff Wilson passing onward toward the
Speaker 1: next realm and sending me our secret message. Can you imagine?
Speaker 1: I get the text from his wife, Debbie, put the
Speaker 1: phone down, go to my computer to promote the show,
Speaker 1: and the first thing I see is this image. It's
Speaker 1: like Jeff is standing there looking at his triangular craft
Speaker 1: in the sky. God. Yeah, I mean, I'm telling you.
Speaker 1: The hair is standing up on my arms. And I
Speaker 1: just had to sit there for a minute, and I
Speaker 1: mean I was, I was sort of sort of numb.
Speaker 1: And then you know, I started getting some tears in
Speaker 1: my eyes, and I said, what else could he have done? Like?
Speaker 1: This is perfect? He showed me He went beyond triangle,
Speaker 1: showed me a picture of a man who looks like
Speaker 1: he's passing in to some other, to some other realm.
Speaker 1: He's at peace with it, but he's curious. And there's
Speaker 1: there's his there's his triangular craft. Thank you, Jeff, God
Speaker 1: bless you, God speed. You know what. Jeff was a
Speaker 1: man who loved to drive fast cars, build things that
Speaker 1: have crazy adventures, and his excitement was almost childlike, and
Speaker 1: he was brilliant and I told his wife Debbie that
Speaker 1: he's building some kind of chariot right now up there
Speaker 1: to soar through the heavens. And she wrote back and
Speaker 1: said that, well someone else told her that he's racing
Speaker 1: the chariots in heaven. Well there you go. So if
Speaker 1: you need a little proof that life goes on and
Speaker 1: we will see our loved ones again someday, well just
Speaker 1: think about that story. Time for a break. When we
Speaker 1: come back. I have something else I want to share
Speaker 1: with you that's quite amazing about the human body you me,
Speaker 1: and the potential for us being greater spiritual beings playing
Speaker 1: into that afterlife. I'm Joshua pe Warren. You're listening to
Speaker 1: Strange Things on the iHeartRadio and Coast to Coast AM
Speaker 1: Paranormal Podcast Network. I'll be back after these important messages.
Speaker 1: Welcome back to Strange Things on the iHeart Radio and
Speaker 1: Coast to Coast AM Paranormal Podcast Network. I'm your host,
Speaker 1: Joshua pe Warren, and this is the show where the
Speaker 1: unusual becomes usual. I'm going to if I can remember ask,
Speaker 1: I'm gonna ask Lauren to go to the podcast Instagram
Speaker 1: page and post a screenshot of this image. That I
Speaker 1: was telling you about of the man looking at the
Speaker 1: glowing triangle in the sky. And if you if you're
Speaker 1: on Instagram, I think it's just at Joshua P. Warren podcast.
Speaker 1: You'll find you'll find me there, and it's it's a
Speaker 1: fairly new Instagram page. It hasn't been around long. So
Speaker 1: go ahead, follow us. Let's build that. And if if
Speaker 1: I get one of the more people I have the
Speaker 1: more picture, I'll be inspired to post. But Larn's the instagrammer,
Speaker 1: and so I'll ask her to do that. Something else
Speaker 1: I want to mention that's just sort of curious. Is
Speaker 1: I think that we did that contest no more than
Speaker 1: five years and if memory serves correctly, Jeff Wilson was
Speaker 1: the champion every year and we had great competition. It
Speaker 1: was the champion every year except one year. And that
Speaker 1: year the man who won was named Jim Robison and
Speaker 1: he lived in Asheville, and Jim Robison he blew us
Speaker 1: all away because that he he was able to take
Speaker 1: those Chinese lanterns that cost next to nothing. And I'm
Speaker 1: talking about like the paper lanterns and there's a little
Speaker 1: candle underneath, and you light the candle and it turns
Speaker 1: into a mini'ture hot air balloon and then drifts up
Speaker 1: into the sky. I mean it's miraculous. I mean, it's
Speaker 1: truly like watching something magical manifest right before your eyes.
Speaker 1: It floats up into the sky and off into the distance,
Speaker 1: and then thank goodness, the candle goes out and then
Speaker 1: they fall down and disintegrate and hopefully they don't burn
Speaker 1: forest down. I mean, I've never heard of that, but
Speaker 1: you know, people let off thousands of those things. So
Speaker 1: we were doing an event and all he had was
Speaker 1: a few packs of these Chinese lanterns, and I don't know,
Speaker 1: I don't know exactly how many. But he had such
Speaker 1: knowledge of weather patterns and timing that he was able
Speaker 1: to release these Chinese lanterns and just the right way
Speaker 1: so that once they got up into the sky, they
Speaker 1: formed a giant V shape like a flock of geese,
Speaker 1: and it looked like the phoenix lights flying over because
Speaker 1: even though it was a bunch of separate dots of
Speaker 1: light different lanterns, when you look up, your eye connects
Speaker 1: them all. And I swear, you know, this is how
Speaker 1: much it had cost to do that. I don't know,
Speaker 1: ten dollars you know, it's paper and tiny, little cheap
Speaker 1: Chinese candles and it was just amazing. There are pictures
Speaker 1: out there of this huge V shape that looks like
Speaker 1: the phoenix lights and he did that with Chinese lanterns.
Speaker 1: So we I mean, we really had some great creative
Speaker 1: people working on that. And you know what, Jim is
Speaker 1: dead also. And Jim died. He was probably around Jeff's age,
Speaker 1: maybe even a little younger. And I can't remember. I
Speaker 1: think he might have had a tumor or something. I
Speaker 1: don't recall. So what does that mean. I mean, it's
Speaker 1: just like the two guys who were the champs at
Speaker 1: that both died, and they're both wonderful, wonderful, talented, friendly,
Speaker 1: warm people. I don't know that reminds you of that,
Speaker 1: you know, Billy Joelsong. Only the good die young. I guess, oh,
Speaker 1: will I miss them both. The human body is such
Speaker 1: a remarkable thing though, because you know, I remember I
Speaker 1: used to read, you know, like in the Bible about
Speaker 1: Methuselah and how he lived to be about hundreds of
Speaker 1: years old or something, and you think, well, that's just ridiculous,
Speaker 1: that's nonsense. But we are learning so much more so
Speaker 1: quickly about how much more complex the body is and
Speaker 1: how what a role the energy plays in the body
Speaker 1: that I'm thinking that it might be possible that we
Speaker 1: are going to see some exponential growth here very soon
Speaker 1: that's going to start expanding our lives tremendously, our life spans,
Speaker 1: at least for for those of us who get access
Speaker 1: to it and can afford it. When I was living
Speaker 1: in Puerto Rico, one of my favorite things to do
Speaker 1: was to visit the bioluminescent bays. And you go out
Speaker 1: there at night, and if you found a good company,
Speaker 1: they'd take you out on a boat on a dark
Speaker 1: night to one of these bays and they'd let you
Speaker 1: jump in the water, and the water was as warm
Speaker 1: as bath water, And as soon as you hit the water,
Speaker 1: your entire body was surrounded by this fluorescent blue glow,
Speaker 1: like the glow of a glow stick that you'd shake
Speaker 1: up at a parade or a party, and it was
Speaker 1: just the most magical thing. I mean, you'd lifted your
Speaker 1: if you'd lift your hand up and you saw the
Speaker 1: beads of water rolling down your hand, the beads of
Speaker 1: water would be sparkling like little stars. You could put
Speaker 1: your hands under the water and thrust them forth like
Speaker 1: you're pushing forth a fireball, and sure enough, a big
Speaker 1: blue ball which out of your hand. I could sit
Speaker 1: here and tell you stories all night long about weird
Speaker 1: biluminescent bay effects. One night I was on a bay
Speaker 1: and it was a huge, huge, big bay. There was
Speaker 1: nobody else around, and I was on this boat with
Speaker 1: this captain and he goes, hey, guys, watch this. You're
Speaker 1: not gonna want to miss this. And he turned on
Speaker 1: this motor that the fish didn't like, and all of
Speaker 1: a sudden, it was like hundreds of fish came leaping
Speaker 1: out of the water at once, and every one of
Speaker 1: them was glowing blue. I mean, it was just like
Speaker 1: the craziest thing I've ever seen. And this is a
Speaker 1: biluminicent effect because there are these little creatures, little microscopic
Speaker 1: creatures that live in the water called dino flagelets, and
Speaker 1: whenever they're agitated, they glow. It's part of a defense mechanism.
Speaker 1: So these are little glowing creatures. For a while, I
Speaker 1: even had some in a jar as pets, but I
Speaker 1: think Lauren forgot to feed them at some point. So nonetheless,
Speaker 1: there's to ingest I mean, if you drink water from
Speaker 1: the Bioluminescent Bay, it's not going to kill you. And
Speaker 1: when I was there, I actually on one night I
Speaker 1: ran into some doctors who had traveled to the Biluminescent
Speaker 1: Bay from far away, and they were studying this method
Speaker 1: where they said they were taking bioluminescent water and injecting
Speaker 1: it into people, and that after you do this, because
Speaker 1: it's totally safe, you could put the person in a
Speaker 1: dark room with a very sensitive camera and then you
Speaker 1: could see the glowing water flowing all throughout the person's veins.
Speaker 1: And it was a very effective way of imaging certain things,
Speaker 1: a very safe, effective way of imaging certain things that
Speaker 1: may not have been so easy to image otherwise. And
Speaker 1: I just thought that was like a genius idea. Well,
Speaker 1: and then the other day I'm looking around here on
Speaker 1: the internet and I come across this story and it
Speaker 1: says it says humans glow in the dark. It's just
Speaker 1: too weak for our eyes to see. They're not talking
Speaker 1: about putting bioluminescent things in you. They're saying, and this
Speaker 1: is spiritscience central dot com. They're saying that no humans
Speaker 1: also just glow on their own. Humans are also naturally bioluminescent,
Speaker 1: that it's very faint, that it's imperceptible to the naked eye,
Speaker 1: That it's the product of our metabolism, the chemical processes
Speaker 1: that keep ourselves alive and thriving, and as our bodies
Speaker 1: generate energy to fuel these processes, they also release small
Speaker 1: amounts of photons, or particles of light, and they form
Speaker 1: a dim glow that's always present, though hidden from view.
Speaker 1: And it's reminder than even in our most ordinary moments,
Speaker 1: extraordinary things are happening beneath the surface. Well, I wanted
Speaker 1: to know, like, how legit is this? It makes sense,
Speaker 1: but how legit is it? So I said, hey, Groc, Grok,
Speaker 1: is it true that humans are faintly bioluminescent? Now, if
Speaker 1: you don't know, Grok is my new favorite AI search engine.
Speaker 1: You go there and you ask Groc. You say, hey,
Speaker 1: tell me, you could ask him anything. You can ask
Speaker 1: him anything and you'll get an amazing answer. And I
Speaker 1: say him because, look, I guess technically, I mean, I
Speaker 1: guess Groc is a sexual. But I always kind of
Speaker 1: think of Grok as being a man, because that Groc
Speaker 1: seems like c three po to me. But come to
Speaker 1: think of it, I mean, is C three po a man?
Speaker 1: Is this even a reasonable question? Maybe this is one
Speaker 1: of those things they call a non sequitur. I don't know.
Speaker 1: I've never tried to ask Groc anything dirty. Uh, because
Speaker 1: you know, I'm not sure. I don't want to be impolite.
Speaker 1: I don't want to be offensive. I don't know what.
Speaker 1: I don't understand why. I don't want Groc to do
Speaker 1: something bad to me. Uh. I just ask about science
Speaker 1: and philosophy. But if one of you decide to ask
Speaker 1: Rock something dirty, let me know how Groc responds to them.
Speaker 1: So Groc says, yes, humans are indeed faintly bi iluminescent.
Speaker 1: This phenomenon is due to a process called ultra weak
Speaker 1: photon emission UPE. We're living organisms, including humans, emit a
Speaker 1: very small number of photons or light particles as a
Speaker 1: byproduct of metabolic processes, and humans this glow is extremely faint,
Speaker 1: about one thousand times weaker than the human eye can detect,
Speaker 1: so we don't see it under normal circumstances. But we
Speaker 1: have such an energy layer that we're glowing. Is this
Speaker 1: similar to the aura? Okay, we're up on a break.
Speaker 1: My goodness, the time keeps flying by when we come
Speaker 1: back listen to this. I saw a headline and I
Speaker 1: was like, no, this can't be true, this can't be true.
Speaker 1: An electronic tongue. I'm Joshua P. Warren. You're listening to
Speaker 1: Strange Things on the iHeartRadio and Coast to Coast AM
Speaker 1: Paranormal Podcast Network. I'll be right back. Welcome back to
Speaker 1: the final segment of this edition of Strange Things on
Speaker 1: the iHeartRadio and Coast to Coast AM Paranormal Podcast Network.
Speaker 1: I am your host, Joshua P. Warren. And you glow.
Speaker 1: You are a bioluminescent being. And you know, even though
Speaker 1: your eyes might not be able to always see people glowing,
Speaker 1: some people can see an aura. I can see the
Speaker 1: human aura. If you have never seen the human aura,
Speaker 1: and I'm not saying that that's that's what we're talking
Speaker 1: about here, that that's the same thing, but it's certainly
Speaker 1: I'm sure related. If you've never seen the human aura.
Speaker 1: If you sign up for my free e newsletter on
Speaker 1: the homepage of Joshua P. Warren dot com, I told
Speaker 1: you you'll get some links. One of them is a
Speaker 1: link to in free instructions on something I invented. It's
Speaker 1: called the Aura visor, And for a few dollars you
Speaker 1: can make one of these and like ten minutes at
Speaker 1: your house, you put it on, and you will most
Speaker 1: likely start seeing the aura and possibly even deeper into
Speaker 1: the spiritual realm very quickly. I'm not joking. Try that out,
Speaker 1: but sure enough, you are a glowing spiritual being. You
Speaker 1: are radiating light. You are not just this crude. This
Speaker 1: crude't matter you are. You are an energy being first
Speaker 1: and foremost, and energy you can be neither created nor destroyed,
Speaker 1: simply conserved, transferred on. That's why I don't think you
Speaker 1: actually die. When you die, a part of you dies.
Speaker 1: We're always shape shifting. You don't look the way you
Speaker 1: looked when you were a baby, or a different, different
Speaker 1: form of yourself now, But you're still You're still you,
Speaker 1: And I believe that when you shed this skin, you
Speaker 1: still have that energy and you move on to other experiences,
Speaker 1: into what you can call an after life. But I
Speaker 1: don't think you're you're ever unconscious. I'm sure your level
Speaker 1: of consciousness may change, but I think you will always.
Speaker 1: If you're conscious now, then that means you're always going
Speaker 1: to be conscious in some form. That's just what I think.
Speaker 1: And I am not the smartest man in the world,
Speaker 1: but I did stay at a holiday and express when
Speaker 1: it comes to the complexity of the human body. I
Speaker 1: saw this headline, and you know how much stuff you
Speaker 1: see on the net and you're just like, yeah, right,
Speaker 1: this is just some kind of clickbait. This can't be real.
Speaker 1: I saw a headline and it said electronic tongue could
Speaker 1: let you taste cake and virtual reality, and I'm just like,
Speaker 1: no way. I'm a very open minded guy, but even
Speaker 1: for me, I'm like, no way, you're gonna let me
Speaker 1: taste cake in virtual reality? And then I realized this
Speaker 1: is an article from New Scientist dot com. This is
Speaker 1: a legit science I was like, what, well, here it is.
Speaker 1: It's by Alex Wilkins. Virtual reality could get more realistic
Speaker 1: thanks to scientists inventing an artificial tongue that can taste
Speaker 1: flavors such as sourness and umami. Now, let's Paul's right there.
Speaker 1: Because again, I'm not the smartest guy. I'm not the
Speaker 1: most cultured guy. I don't even know what umami means.
Speaker 1: So I was like, hey, Grock, I'm just gonna let
Speaker 1: groc do this show from now on. Unfortunately he can't
Speaker 1: talk right now, but maybe someday. But anyways, I was like,
Speaker 1: what is what is umami? And apparently it says umami
Speaker 1: is a savory taste, one of the basic five tastes,
Speaker 1: along with sweet, sour, salty, and bitter, comes from the
Speaker 1: Japanese word umai, which means delicious, and it says it's
Speaker 1: found in many foods, including meats. So here is like
Speaker 1: examples of umami rich foods parmesan, cheese, yummy mushrooms. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I like mushrooms, Seaweed, yeah, I can handle some seaweed,
Speaker 1: soy sauce, tomatoes, miso, cured meats like pepperoni, salami, bacon. Okay,
Speaker 1: So they're saying I can taste all this stuff through
Speaker 1: virtual reality. How is this gonna work? It says this
Speaker 1: electronic tongue can replicate these flavors like cake and fish
Speaker 1: soup through virtual reality. And it says that this I
Speaker 1: guess as scientist to your name yet send Yeah. At
Speaker 1: the Ohio State University and his colleagues have developed this
Speaker 1: system called e Taste, and it can sample of food
Speaker 1: work out how to partly recreate the flavor of the
Speaker 1: food and apply this to your mouth. It's got chemicals
Speaker 1: in there that correspond to salt and citric and glucose
Speaker 1: and anyway. So they have it's almost like I think
Speaker 1: of this myself as being like a print cartridge, like
Speaker 1: a color cartridge, and it mixes certain colors together, and
Speaker 1: it uses sensors to detect the levels of these chemicals,
Speaker 1: and food converts them to digital readings, sends these values
Speaker 1: to the pump, which pushes all amounts of different flavored
Speaker 1: containing hydro gels into a small tube under a person's tongue.
Speaker 1: So I'm looking at a picture of this thing, and
Speaker 1: it looks to me like some kind of a little
Speaker 1: stack of gels hooked to a microchip. And I guess,
Speaker 1: like this little flexible piece of plastic goes under your
Speaker 1: tongue and the tongue is connected to this little stack
Speaker 1: of gels and a microchip, and so I guess you
Speaker 1: sit there with some kind of a mouthpiece and you
Speaker 1: go to like the Food Network website. So I mean,
Speaker 1: it's not like that they're magically creating this flavor in
Speaker 1: your mouth. I mean there's some combination of chemicals there
Speaker 1: that they're using to reconstruct some of these flavors. It's
Speaker 1: still pretty darn crazy, though. This is what I'm talking
Speaker 1: about in ten years. Who knows, who knows what with
Speaker 1: AI out there? Who knows what our world's going to
Speaker 1: be like in ten years and what we're going to
Speaker 1: be able to do with the human body? Okay? I
Speaker 1: want to jump to an email that I got from
Speaker 1: a man in Australia and he wanted to share this
Speaker 1: with me. He writes to me. His name is Scott,
Speaker 1: and he says, mate, crikey, you know what, I wish
Speaker 1: that Americans had something cool like that. We could say,
Speaker 1: you know, British people could say bloody hell, or you know,
Speaker 1: you got the Australians. Crikey. What do we have as Americans? Dude?
Speaker 1: I don't know. We need to come up with some
Speaker 1: kind of a cool cultural opening like that. He says. Joshua,
Speaker 1: I like what you're doing, Keep doing it. I love
Speaker 1: your inquisitive mind, etc. He says this good fortune tone, man,
Speaker 1: dang it. He said. Things have been happening in the
Speaker 1: days following meditating on the good fortune tone. He says,
Speaker 1: thirty seconds all the way up to twenty minutes. For example,
Speaker 1: he says, I found a lost priceless gold ring of
Speaker 1: sixty one years that a grandma lost at the public
Speaker 1: school some hours earlier. It just appears to me meters
Speaker 1: away when it became clear to keep an eye out
Speaker 1: for it, as distressed onlookers stood by the pool side
Speaker 1: staff and all, and I just popped up like Frodo
Speaker 1: and I'm like, here, it is no big deal. I
Speaker 1: told the lady. They were all in tears. Meditating on
Speaker 1: the tone has brought me and others good fortune. So
Speaker 1: he says, Then there was another thing, drove on a
Speaker 1: two hour goose chase each way because of an order
Speaker 1: on a package that got messed up, one hundred and
Speaker 1: eleven kilometers from my home. And he says, he's talking
Speaker 1: about how complicated this whole thing was, and I'm kind
Speaker 1: of editing this as I read it, But he said,
Speaker 1: as this is a pink climbing rose with a lovely scent.
Speaker 1: Long story, But the lady at the plant's location was
Speaker 1: going to get rid of it. It had grown large
Speaker 1: and unruly. I took a few cuttings with my box scissors.
Speaker 1: So four hours over two days and driving two hundred
Speaker 1: and seventy five point eight eight miles, he switched into miles.
Speaker 1: He says he had these priceless cuttings that you'd be
Speaker 1: unlikely to find anyway else, considering bah and he says,
Speaker 1: I took these cuttings and they couldn't have been more
Speaker 1: perfect for what I needed. It was an ordeal that
Speaker 1: worked out great. This was the first thing that really
Speaker 1: came to me when I used the tone. And then
Speaker 1: he says, fast forward to today. After listening to the
Speaker 1: tone yesterday for about a minute, I woke up today
Speaker 1: went about my routine and he said, this usually means
Speaker 1: swimming and physio as I I am recovering from a
Speaker 1: fallen some injuries, and he said, I am a year
Speaker 1: out of a surgery. He says, anyway, today, I'm coming
Speaker 1: up past my old high school and parked opposite as
Speaker 1: this Ford Turbo for sale turbocharged beast for under ten thousand.
Speaker 1: It's basically the car i'd imagine wanting. The night before
Speaker 1: while falling asleep, my father brought up wanting his old
Speaker 1: stolen one back from twenty eighteen, and this one it's
Speaker 1: for sell locally. Very nice, well to do folks, willing
Speaker 1: to negotiate. He said, this car is now mine. It's
Speaker 1: going to be inspected tomorrow. He just goes on and on,
Speaker 1: and he says, what the heck have you done? Man?
Speaker 1: He says, this tone works. Use it everyone, Play this
Speaker 1: to patients in hospital and rehab. He says, I want
Speaker 1: to play it and gamble. Joshua, keep being you well, Scott,
Speaker 1: thank you. Here it is, folks, the one and only
Speaker 1: good fortune tone. That's it for this edition of the show.
