Speaker 1: It's three two am in Amityville and you're listening to
Speaker 1: Night Call. Hello, everybody, welcome to Night Call podcast for
Speaker 1: you strange days and lonely nights. I'm Molly Lambert in
Speaker 1: Los Angeles, and joining me as always is Tess Lynch.
Speaker 1: And over in New York, we have Emily Oshida and
Speaker 1: a special guest this week. I don't know no, she's
Speaker 1: so excited, she's ready to go. Rachel Handler, my editor
Speaker 1: colleague at New York Magazine and Vulture. UM a very
Speaker 1: funny and great writer and just all around great co worker.
Speaker 1: Thank you for that review. And Fred Rachel I also
Speaker 1: used to work together, and I will double confirm she
Speaker 1: is also a great coworker and friend and writer. To
Speaker 1: bring this to my raised meeting, UM, great performance review.
Speaker 1: We were going to start, sorry inside jokes about the magazine.
Speaker 1: You guys were catting you raise your consciousness. UM, let's
Speaker 1: cut off. They just read your aura. They're like, your
Speaker 1: aura seems good. It's a nice blue year for you
Speaker 1: to see. Speaking speaking of auras and crystals, we talked
Speaker 1: about crystals last week. We got a lot of space
Speaker 1: news this week. This is both crystal news and space news,
Speaker 1: which makes it perhaps the most exciting new age news
Speaker 1: lucky us, which is that I read a story on
Speaker 1: Live Science, my favorite science story aggregator, about how the
Speaker 1: Sun is going to turn into a crystal when it dies. Why, well, funny,
Speaker 1: you should ask just the sun is gonna die? Hold on,
Speaker 1: I'm trying to pull up the store. I'll tell you
Speaker 1: that in a short version that I remember vaguely. Um,
Speaker 1: there was a new study that was published that said
Speaker 1: that white dwarfs, which is I think we knew that
Speaker 1: the Sun would turn into a white dwarf. White dwarves
Speaker 1: turn into solid crystal cores that are made of oxygen
Speaker 1: and carbon, and then when they're really really old, this
Speaker 1: is the discovery, they're just like an entire crystal star. Huh.
Speaker 1: So it's not like a diamond though, it's like a
Speaker 1: or is it like compressed carbon that just turns into
Speaker 1: I mean, I think that's sort of what it's like,
Speaker 1: which again is what we were saying last week. Like
Speaker 1: that to me is what is amazing about crystal Since
Speaker 1: you're like the Earth, the Earth squished an egg that
Speaker 1: is like a weird this is scientifically backed up. The
Speaker 1: Earth made A scientist explain what we call stones and
Speaker 1: gems or earth eggs. It's like a footnote about how
Speaker 1: the age that we think stars are might be wrong
Speaker 1: because as they turn into white dwarfs, they start cooling
Speaker 1: and that like kind of distorts what their age. And
Speaker 1: as we've learned from all the statistics are fake about
Speaker 1: everything exactly, well, that is true in science, though, It's
Speaker 1: like old beliefs continually get replaced with like we know
Speaker 1: more now, and like there's something smaller than a molecule
Speaker 1: or whatever and act smaller than that. This also says
Speaker 1: that the skies are probably already filled with these crystal stars,
Speaker 1: because it means that there's just a lot of stars
Speaker 1: that like already burned out and are dead and are
Speaker 1: just floating around being crystals in the sky. Very very sailor. Yeah.
Speaker 1: I mean if to be a dead star, it means
Speaker 1: it's just burnt out, it's done, its energy has been depleted.
Speaker 1: It's like a plant that's dead. But it's like, you know,
Speaker 1: what's how long does it exists in it's dead state? Forever? Yeah,
Speaker 1: it just like floats, it's like a it's like a rock.
Speaker 1: Then it becomes like a space rock. But I don't
Speaker 1: know if it never really does, well, it's just a
Speaker 1: different form, a different form. Also, before the sun turns
Speaker 1: into a crystal, it's going to turn up into a giant,
Speaker 1: red giant and swallow the earth. Well yeah, but right,
Speaker 1: it's just it's fake news. I'm comforting to think about
Speaker 1: me too. That's really soothing. Actually, we should be so
Speaker 1: lucky to last long after it's swallowed up by the sun.
Speaker 1: I can't. Speaking of which this is slightly related, but
Speaker 1: speaking of science, just reevaluating everything, did you guys see
Speaker 1: that article about how the sun is actually good for
Speaker 1: you now and sunscreen is killing people? Yes? I know.
Speaker 1: I loved this article. It was awesome. It said that
Speaker 1: written by Russians. No, it was like this one guy
Speaker 1: who was like, you know what, I know, like all
Speaker 1: the dermatologists are going to hate me, but I'm just
Speaker 1: going to say, there are all of these studies that
Speaker 1: show that avoiding this on is as bad as smoking. Yeah, well,
Speaker 1: I think you need a little vitamin D and you're
Speaker 1: like a lot of and and taking vitamin D as
Speaker 1: a supplement isn't effective. It doesn't help, and you can
Speaker 1: die all these things that the sun can cure and habits.
Speaker 1: You still gotta put on sunscreen on your face, on
Speaker 1: your but you still go outside, right. I think they're saying,
Speaker 1: like the lifestyle of avoiding sun is don't be a vampire,
Speaker 1: don't be a basement team. But that's like what those
Speaker 1: people are into, right right. Nutrient. Yeah, they said that
Speaker 1: something like three people out of every hundred thousand people
Speaker 1: who get skin cancer will die, whereas the odds of
Speaker 1: dying from a disease that's related to avoiding the sun
Speaker 1: is much higher. So it's basically like you should not
Speaker 1: totally avoid the sun and you should see a dermatologist.
Speaker 1: What's bad about sunscreen? It blocks the sun? Sunscreen? Yeah,
Speaker 1: it does, no way, no does read the thing. It's
Speaker 1: got to read the thing. You got to read the thing.
Speaker 1: Was this on like Gwyneth Paltrow website, Well it was
Speaker 1: a real thing. It was. I said it to my everyone,
Speaker 1: I know, because everyone likes to give me ship because
Speaker 1: I was a young lifeguard who my face. I was like,
Speaker 1: I'm gonna be okay. Well, we'll cite that source in
Speaker 1: our show notes and make sure I feel like the
Speaker 1: lobby for Big Sun may have paid for this. We're
Speaker 1: talking about Big moon, because um, we're talking about the
Speaker 1: super blood super upon and I believe Emily was like,
Speaker 1: what's up with the silly moon names? And a bunch
Speaker 1: of people were like, well, actually, well very old. I
Speaker 1: was glad that people clarified this. I mean, to be fair,
Speaker 1: I was asking about the whole name because there is
Speaker 1: such a thing as like, obviously a supermoon. We know
Speaker 1: it's about supermoons. We know about blood moons. I had
Speaker 1: personally never heard of a wolf moon. But some people
Speaker 1: are saying this is an indigenous thing. Other people seem
Speaker 1: to say it's like an old world thing, a wolf
Speaker 1: there are actually, well as somebody who bought the twenty nineteen,
Speaker 1: which is almanac. Okay, long ago, all right. There's like
Speaker 1: a bunch of different names for every moon, and most
Speaker 1: of them are like indigenous names that then American colonizers
Speaker 1: like kept, so things like the corn moon. Have you
Speaker 1: ever heard the wolf saying to the blue corn moon
Speaker 1: is a thing? Sorry? Please? Ever heard no wolf sang
Speaker 1: to the wolf moon? Because the wolf moon is one
Speaker 1: of the moon's. There's a worm moon that is the
Speaker 1: number one moon in my book. Why is it a
Speaker 1: because it's when it's awesome. It's because it's when the
Speaker 1: worms start coming out of the dirt. Yeah, it's like
Speaker 1: the end of winter when the worms start coming to
Speaker 1: the drawn out by the gravity of the moon. Like, yes, exactly,
Speaker 1: they probably do know. It's all. It's all super cool
Speaker 1: and uh and awesome and well, we do have to
Speaker 1: bring more moon info. I have a super Wolf blood
Speaker 1: moon coming up in five No, it's in January because
Speaker 1: it's the first full moon of the year. It'll be
Speaker 1: around when this episode air around, it will be around. Yeah. Uh,
Speaker 1: so check it out. Keep keep your eyes out for
Speaker 1: the super Wolf blood moon. Oh you know what happens
Speaker 1: right after that A nightcall live show that long. I
Speaker 1: wish we could get a super Wolf blood moon while
Speaker 1: at our DJ set. But alas one more bit of
Speaker 1: a space news. It's been a really amazing last few
Speaker 1: months in general for setting news. Uh again search for
Speaker 1: extraterrestrial intelligence. Um. But the most recent thing that I
Speaker 1: was so, I was so glad that you guys sent
Speaker 1: this to me. I had at least two other friends
Speaker 1: who sent this to me. UM that there have been
Speaker 1: these series of deo burst detected by radio astronomers or
Speaker 1: radio telescopes uh that so far they have not ruled
Speaker 1: out uh could be coming from stra extraterrestrials. But there
Speaker 1: it's repetitive. That's like the reason that it's noteworthy. It's
Speaker 1: like a signal that's now repeated itself. Um, nobody knows
Speaker 1: what's in the signal yet, nobody's like, I don't think
Speaker 1: anybody has tried to dig into it yet, But it
Speaker 1: did get me um reading about the theory about gamma
Speaker 1: ray bursts as a possible um uh mode of communication
Speaker 1: from extraterrestrials because those happened every once in a while,
Speaker 1: and apparently in a gamma ray burst you can pack
Speaker 1: the entire information like this, some total of all information
Speaker 1: on planet Earth could be packed into a gamma ray burst.
Speaker 1: So a very advanced civilization could hypothetically send everything about
Speaker 1: themselves to us in one single like millisecond. What they're
Speaker 1: beaming us they're hard drive. Yeah, it's very possible. Why
Speaker 1: can't we cat it? Uh? We were too dumb well
Speaker 1: to to to be accurate. These are not gamma ray burst,
Speaker 1: These are radio bursts. These were discovering on a radio telescope.
Speaker 1: After you go into this, the same um astronomer guy
Speaker 1: av Loeb, who who was kind of opening about the
Speaker 1: fast radio verse being meaningful today there was something about
Speaker 1: this potential spaceship called Yeah, and he's the same guy.
Speaker 1: He's just like I am. I'm working at Harvard now
Speaker 1: I'm just gonna like speak my mind about the So
Speaker 1: I can't remember this is if this is the same
Speaker 1: guy who I heard on an interview on Big Picture Science,
Speaker 1: which is the podcast of the SETI Institute, which I
Speaker 1: am a proud subscriber. But he I think he was
Speaker 1: talking about UMMA, which is like this weird long sort
Speaker 1: of um structure that that a lot of scientists are
Speaker 1: saying doesn't look like it's naturally occurring. Just the shape
Speaker 1: of it does not look like the way that asteroids
Speaker 1: or um there's the word for asteroids that aren't in
Speaker 1: the asteroid belt. But it's like it doesn't look naturally occurring.
Speaker 1: And he was hypothesizing that it was a solar sale
Speaker 1: that had made its way to us from some other
Speaker 1: civilization like billions of years ago or something, because it's
Speaker 1: just this like long skinny thing. Uh it Yeah, but
Speaker 1: it was I think that was discovered a couple of
Speaker 1: months ago. Um, what are the odds it's the monolith
Speaker 1: from two thousand one. I mean it kind of looks
Speaker 1: like it. I mean it's not it's not as clean,
Speaker 1: but it's it's it's long. Well, once we get it
Speaker 1: and like, you know, stand it up. Producer Venge just
Speaker 1: held up his jewel to suggest maybe the aliens have
Speaker 1: been vaping. Maybe every time you jewel it's like a
Speaker 1: Gamma ra you learned something about an ancient civilization, You
Speaker 1: download an entire ancient aliens that vibrates. Maybe it's just
Speaker 1: it's vibrating. The game maraised right to the dome the dome.
Speaker 1: But I think that the deal with Uma, which is
Speaker 1: um it means what does it mean? I forget I
Speaker 1: wrote it down, so uh it is uh. I guess okay,
Speaker 1: waitwai Hawaii Hawaiian first distant messenger or scout um. But
Speaker 1: the deal was I guess it's the first it's the
Speaker 1: first object to pass through the solar system and like
Speaker 1: be identified as being like foreign to our solar system.
Speaker 1: So but also it's like, yeah, it's powered by the
Speaker 1: sun with like technology that we don't have. I don't know.
Speaker 1: My husband this morning was like, hey, did you hear
Speaker 1: about I was like, what he's like, and he's like
Speaker 1: google it, and I was like, I can't because you're
Speaker 1: giving me nothing to do. So it's like some alien vikings.
Speaker 1: Alien vikings. Yeah, like an alien viking barrels just like
Speaker 1: glided all the way out of summer time. That would
Speaker 1: be cool. When this lands on Earth. Twitch probably won't
Speaker 1: but if it did, Yeah, would you touch it? Yeah?
Speaker 1: I touch it. Let somebody else touch it first. To
Speaker 1: make sure every time I talk about aliens, I can't
Speaker 1: talk about them for too long before I get really
Speaker 1: worked up thinking about dying before I get really we're
Speaker 1: talking about this like last week with the Drake equation,
Speaker 1: just the likelihood of it even happening as long as
Speaker 1: they're humans on Earth. What okay? But what if death
Speaker 1: is when you break on through to the other side. Yeah,
Speaker 1: it's in contact? Yeah, yeah, you meet your dad beach.
Speaker 1: I love how that's what people always come up with,
Speaker 1: is it's like you meet yourself. Aliens just care about
Speaker 1: your um. We should read the Book of Contact. That
Speaker 1: would be because I've never read it. I've just seen
Speaker 1: the movie a gazillion times, but I would love to read.
Speaker 1: I like things about contact, things about the aliens making Yeah,
Speaker 1: we are all just like we'd like to be there.
Speaker 1: My recent favorite, um, this is not easy doesn't even
Speaker 1: qualify as a joke. But anytime I like pick up
Speaker 1: food that's fallen on the floor, Now my line is
Speaker 1: just we are all stars. Well, I keep trying to
Speaker 1: bring this up on the pod. But UFO cults, which
Speaker 1: are like, there are a bunch of religions that are
Speaker 1: based around the idea that the raptures when the aliens come. Yeah,
Speaker 1: of course it just makes sense. And they're like, well,
Speaker 1: like people think Jesus is going to come back, and
Speaker 1: it's you know, sounds eerily similar to when the aliens come,
Speaker 1: has it? Well that was Heaven's Gate, right, Yeah. There's
Speaker 1: one called Happy Science. I think that's Japanese. There's a
Speaker 1: good Wickmu still around. There's a there's a bunch the
Speaker 1: aliens I believe are a UFO call. There's Eunarius, which
Speaker 1: is not technically like a rapture called I Love Funarius.
Speaker 1: Snarius is on the there on the flyer for our
Speaker 1: first live show. Um, they're now run by a woman,
Speaker 1: a woman who's like the Empress of Aliens. They used
Speaker 1: to have a show on Public access in l A
Speaker 1: all the time. That was a parade of the planets.
Speaker 1: It was like it was so all the things you love.
Speaker 1: It's really it imprinted on me very deeply because they
Speaker 1: would always show it because the Unarians just like bought
Speaker 1: up all this time on l A public access. And
Speaker 1: again like that's why I love podcasting. It's because it
Speaker 1: feels public access. Um, but I will post Molly, you
Speaker 1: should start a USO. I would love to. That's what
Speaker 1: Nightcall is eventually going to become. Obviously, Um, don't tell
Speaker 1: anyone about stage three. Hey, we were going to talk
Speaker 1: a little bit about Pour them out for a friend
Speaker 1: of the podcast who is no longer with us. Yes,
Speaker 1: lonely George, who was the last of his species of
Speaker 1: tree snail, has died. He was fourteen years old. Blew
Speaker 1: my fucking mind that he was that old old snail.
Speaker 1: It's a fourteen year old snail. I had a snail
Speaker 1: girling up, a pet snail. She lived, I know, poor
Speaker 1: went out again. Our kindergarten class had like tiny baby
Speaker 1: snails and I was able to procure a tiny baby
Speaker 1: snail and brought her home. She lived for many years,
Speaker 1: but not fourteen. Wait, how many years did it live
Speaker 1: for us? She lived until I was in like fourth grade.
Speaker 1: Five years first five years of snail in my house.
Speaker 1: My parents are saints. What was its name? I don't
Speaker 1: remember its name. I know you were hoping I would
Speaker 1: tell of sail. You couldn't get you raise. That I
Speaker 1: had a snail for five years is a much less
Speaker 1: problematic way of saying that. It's also interesting with George.
Speaker 1: They had been trying to find a mate for George
Speaker 1: for a long time, but he didn't. He wasn't interested,
Speaker 1: didn't want to mate. Um. He also I think that
Speaker 1: they are neither male nor female, but they just decided
Speaker 1: that he was. He his researchers, George. George is an
Speaker 1: introgenous name to me, Madam George, Madam George Georgie girl. Yeah, yeah, um,
Speaker 1: I like that. In the National Geographic article about George's passing,
Speaker 1: they say throughout his life, which is already already funny
Speaker 1: to me, George was a public face for the struggles
Speaker 1: facing Hawaiian land snails. It's sad, but it's also immediately
Speaker 1: I think of a face of a snail, and I'm
Speaker 1: just like, no, they're they're so did I talk about
Speaker 1: I talked about banana slugs. When I came back from
Speaker 1: the Bay and I had seen a bunch of banana slugs.
Speaker 1: I promised my boyfriend there would be banana slugs, and
Speaker 1: then there were, and I guess it was unusual to
Speaker 1: see them in Berkeley, but um, I showed them for
Speaker 1: you all about them, and I learned that it's like
Speaker 1: their genitals or maybe on their head because they yeah,
Speaker 1: they and they have like sillia that are like a
Speaker 1: million tongues. Um, and let's make sure that that's that's
Speaker 1: for sure. I don't want to to bad mouth no,
Speaker 1: but one is not. One of the things I learned
Speaker 1: is that they're all hermaphroditic, and so they all are
Speaker 1: not a gender that we have, you know, they're like
Speaker 1: a new gender. So these are banana slugs, these are
Speaker 1: Branda slugs. But I think a lot of slugs and
Speaker 1: snails are hermaphroditic and they reproduce where like everybody has both.
Speaker 1: You know what's weird is like, show me a slug
Speaker 1: and I'm just never impressed. Show me a snail, any
Speaker 1: kind of snail, and I'm like, because it has a
Speaker 1: house that has a house, just like slug is too
Speaker 1: terrible for me to connect with. It's so goo it's
Speaker 1: too gooley to gooey. Well, that's what makes I agree
Speaker 1: with you. A right, it's different. That's what makes it like, well,
Speaker 1: you know, to take care of it. No not, what
Speaker 1: do you think about like jelly fit, I don't like.
Speaker 1: I don't care for them. I don't like that. I
Speaker 1: think her eatin. Hermit crabs are like somehow superior to
Speaker 1: regular crabs. Yeah, what's I mean? No, I eat crabs,
Speaker 1: but I wouldn't eat a hermit crab. Probably be because
Speaker 1: I'm like, look at its investment that it carries around.
Speaker 1: WHOA that crab's got its shipped together. That crab it's
Speaker 1: achieved a separate you know, it's moving up in life,
Speaker 1: like it's I'm not going to take anything. Some of
Speaker 1: the crabs just can't afford shells because of a recession,
Speaker 1: still have shells. I just think it's cool when animals
Speaker 1: accessorized and they're like really you know, physically attached to
Speaker 1: hermit crabs are renters. They don't stay in them forever.
Speaker 1: They're there. They're rent they're renting to own. They're relatable,
Speaker 1: not related. But my mom saw a raccoon on her
Speaker 1: porch yesterday just like peel and eat a mandarin, and
Speaker 1: I was like, that's I love it. Yeah, So we
Speaker 1: have Rachel on today to talk to her, not only
Speaker 1: because what was our what was our line about you?
Speaker 1: Your great writer and a great a great friend, but
Speaker 1: also because you have an abundant of ghost stories and
Speaker 1: you're here to share them with us, and we are
Speaker 1: here to receive them and think about them. Uh so yeah,
Speaker 1: give us some background. What was this uh this haunted house?
Speaker 1: And uh what was your relationship to write? So the
Speaker 1: ghost stories are mostly all related, sort of in one
Speaker 1: long story I'll tell I'll tell it medium, Like I've
Speaker 1: told this so many times, I have like versions. Um so,
Speaker 1: the haunted house was my grandparents house, which is in
Speaker 1: suburban Illinois where I spent a lot of time growing up.
Speaker 1: I slept there on a lot of weekends and started
Speaker 1: my siblings and we were there all the time, this
Speaker 1: big spooky house with like a ton of weird rooms
Speaker 1: and weird balconies, and it was just like a creepy,
Speaker 1: bizarre house. You know when it was built? I think
Speaker 1: it was built. I mean I feel like it's at
Speaker 1: least a hundred years old, but I know they remodeled
Speaker 1: it in like a weird seventies way, which you mean
Speaker 1: it even creepier, like a lot of orange carpeting and stuff. Um. Also,
Speaker 1: I almost died there a different time. Where my cousin
Speaker 1: almost died there a different time by my hand. That's
Speaker 1: a different story, like by accident. We decided we would
Speaker 1: try to be Mary Poppins and Umbrella off the balcony,
Speaker 1: and it didn't go well, and it was my plan.
Speaker 1: No one died. I saved her by gripping her arms
Speaker 1: and holding her up on the balcony, So I guess
Speaker 1: I saved her life. Really, it feels like something out
Speaker 1: of the New Mary, Yeah, exactly. Um. But anyway, so
Speaker 1: this all started when I was maybe seven years old. Um,
Speaker 1: I woke up in the middle of the night. I
Speaker 1: was kind of sick, so I was having like a
Speaker 1: fevery evening and I woke up in the middle of
Speaker 1: the night and I remember hearing the piano playing. They
Speaker 1: had a piano downstairs, and I remember thinking that it
Speaker 1: was my grandpa or my dad because they both played.
Speaker 1: And I was so pissed off, and I kind of
Speaker 1: walked into the hallway, and then I kept playing and
Speaker 1: I realized, like it was one in the morning, there
Speaker 1: was no way they were playing the piano, and got
Speaker 1: really scared and ran back to my room. I kind
Speaker 1: of convinced myself that I was dreaming. I told my
Speaker 1: parents and grandparents about the next day, and they were like,
Speaker 1: you definitely dreamed that, And I kind of like gasolate
Speaker 1: myself into believing that I dreamed, and I was like no.
Speaker 1: And then a few years later, my brother was there
Speaker 1: alone with my baby sister. I think he was babysitting,
Speaker 1: and he was in the basement and he heard the
Speaker 1: piano playing like one note over and over again above
Speaker 1: him and called my grandparents and made them come home.
Speaker 1: So I think a couple of things like that happened.
Speaker 1: Our parents were like, you guys are imagining it, your
Speaker 1: kids whatever. No one kind of took us seriously. So
Speaker 1: then in high school I met my best friend, so
Speaker 1: she kind of realized this connection earlier than I didn't.
Speaker 1: Didn't tell me for a few years because she knew
Speaker 1: I'd be freaked out. Um, she realized that her let
Speaker 1: me see if I can get this right. Her great grandpa,
Speaker 1: her step grandpa, her step grandpa grew up in the
Speaker 1: house next door to that house when he was growing
Speaker 1: up and had like crazy stories about it that he
Speaker 1: had told her about the family that lived in that
Speaker 1: in my grandparents house. So she heard all these stories
Speaker 1: and like knew it was about the family that lived
Speaker 1: in my grandparents else, but didn't tell me because she
Speaker 1: knew I was there a lot and didn't want to
Speaker 1: freak me out. Few years go by, she's like, Okay,
Speaker 1: I'll just tell you this story that I know. So
Speaker 1: she tells me the following story, which is there was
Speaker 1: a family that lived there. The dad was this prominent
Speaker 1: surgeon and and he and the mom were both addicted
Speaker 1: to some drug that he got at the hospital. I
Speaker 1: don't know which one, I would like opioids or something.
Speaker 1: And they had a daughter and they were very obsessed
Speaker 1: with her, being like a piano prodigy, like they wanted
Speaker 1: her to play the piano and be really good. And
Speaker 1: so the grandpa was friends with the daughter. My friends,
Speaker 1: grandpa was friends with his daughter, and they would play
Speaker 1: and then she would get called inside and hear like
Speaker 1: playing the piano and crying and be the pews and
Speaker 1: being the all dad um and then one day, the
Speaker 1: dad odeed and the mom a week later killed herself,
Speaker 1: and then the daughter got like shipped off somewhere and
Speaker 1: that came back eventually back to the house and was
Speaker 1: I think, was like eighteen years old and had like
Speaker 1: a Carney boyfriend and a monkey that she treated like
Speaker 1: a baby. So this is the story she tells me.
Speaker 1: So so the way she told it was that the
Speaker 1: daughter eventually died in my grandpa ins house. So that's
Speaker 1: the version we were working under for a really long time.
Speaker 1: So I told my grandparents this story. They were like, yeah,
Speaker 1: we actually heard that, like that all checks out, and
Speaker 1: I was like, holy sh it. Okay, but still my
Speaker 1: grand my parents and my grandma didn't believe us. A
Speaker 1: little more time goes by, um, and then I'm at college.
Speaker 1: I come home and my grandparents are like, okay, with
Speaker 1: something to tell you. While you were at college, we
Speaker 1: both woke up at four in the morning and we
Speaker 1: heard the piano playing like it woke both of us
Speaker 1: out of sleep, and obviously nobody else is there. My
Speaker 1: sister was staying over one night. She was going downstairs
Speaker 1: in the middle of the night for some reason, and
Speaker 1: she heard it from the top of the stairs playing
Speaker 1: and she called me and I was like, college, she
Speaker 1: was crying and she was like, I'm hearing the piano
Speaker 1: and I said, why are you crying and she said,
Speaker 1: I'm really excited. She was like, this is the coolest
Speaker 1: thing ever. She was just like I'm overwhelmed. Finally it happened.
Speaker 1: And there was a bunch of other like little things
Speaker 1: that happened, like this bedroom that we used to all
Speaker 1: stay and I used to feel it shaking in the
Speaker 1: middle of the night. Um and my sister would then
Speaker 1: later stay in it and she would feel shaking from
Speaker 1: all night. And my little list sister, who's fifteen, said
Speaker 1: she when she was a kid who was playing there
Speaker 1: with one of her friends, and she looked up the
Speaker 1: stairs and saw a woman standing there, like dressed in
Speaker 1: all black or something, and her friends saw it too,
Speaker 1: and then they both kind of circled back to see
Speaker 1: if they if that woman was there, and she wasn't.
Speaker 1: So there's just a bunch of weird children. This is
Speaker 1: like the baseline story. The next thing that happened, I'll
Speaker 1: make it short, but um, I when I went home
Speaker 1: like six months ago, I decided to do some research
Speaker 1: because I had googled these this family over and over
Speaker 1: and never been able to find anything about them, not
Speaker 1: even Ovidaris. I went to the library. I met with
Speaker 1: this historian who worked at the library. Yes, I did.
Speaker 1: I went into the micro feast and I and I
Speaker 1: took me so long, it was so hard to find.
Speaker 1: And finally I found these oh bits for both of
Speaker 1: the parents with the same names that I had heard,
Speaker 1: and they were very sketchy, like it didn't say cause
Speaker 1: of death, it didn't say anything. It was just like
Speaker 1: one week the dad died, the next week the mom
Speaker 1: did it. And then there's a picture of the daughter
Speaker 1: in the yearbook and she looked really miserable. It's like
Speaker 1: all these nineteen fifties cheerful girls and she's like morose
Speaker 1: in the background. It's really creepy. And then I found
Speaker 1: all these other crazy details, like that there was money
Speaker 1: hidden in the walls and all there was like all
Speaker 1: these recurring news stories about it. So the craziest thing
Speaker 1: was I told the history in this story and she
Speaker 1: was like, most people come in here with a crazy
Speaker 1: story and it's not true. She's like, this is one
Speaker 1: of the only times I've been able to find like
Speaker 1: full evidence for what someone is talking about. UM, So basically,
Speaker 1: we've all heard the piano playing. My dad actually separately
Speaker 1: saw a young girl walking towards him at one point,
Speaker 1: like nearby the house, and that no one else saw.
Speaker 1: So we've all had weird experiences. Um, but we can't.
Speaker 1: We all thought it was the young girl who was
Speaker 1: the ghost, but then the historian told me she couldn't
Speaker 1: find an o bit for the girl, so we think
Speaker 1: she might still be alive. Yeah, so I'm trying to
Speaker 1: find her to find out, we have to find I know,
Speaker 1: I have a question. Yeah. It's always just the same
Speaker 1: note over and over, sometimes as someone playing, like a song.
Speaker 1: So I've heard a song, my brother heard a note,
Speaker 1: and I think my sister heard a song. What song?
Speaker 1: I don't remember what my parents I don't remember, and
Speaker 1: I don't remember what my parents heard or my grandparents heard.
Speaker 1: Remember how it went, Oh my god, that would be
Speaker 1: so cool. Yeah, it was just it's just kind of
Speaker 1: ominous and creepy. But we don't think the ghost is
Speaker 1: bad because obviously nothing bad has happened while we've all
Speaker 1: been going in and out of that house for like,
Speaker 1: you've also have just gotten rid of the piano right right, Also,
Speaker 1: the attachment to the piano seems negative if it was
Speaker 1: like a thing that she was being forced well, unless
Speaker 1: she's alive and it's the mom. We think it might
Speaker 1: be the mom. Now if you're the daughter, Oh my god,
Speaker 1: it's me suddenly, I suddenly my skin crumbles. I was
Speaker 1: novel version or didn't even read down a Dark Hall.
Speaker 1: I think it's called I don't remember. It's a really
Speaker 1: good y horror book that I was into about like
Speaker 1: a bunch of girls at a boarding school who are
Speaker 1: all like forced to do different talents. And then they
Speaker 1: realized they've all been sleepwalking and like channeling. They're being
Speaker 1: used to channel different great artists. So one of them
Speaker 1: is like, she wakes up playing the piano and it's
Speaker 1: because she's being used to like channel the ghost of
Speaker 1: like Mozart to write new music. It's a good I
Speaker 1: wish that was happening to me. Oh my god. I
Speaker 1: have an idea. You've got to get your grandparents to
Speaker 1: to get a medium, like you have to go from
Speaker 1: in this I tried. So. I actually held a lot
Speaker 1: of sciences in their house as a child. I was
Speaker 1: like the head of the science committee and my family.
Speaker 1: I just forced everyone to have sciences all the time.
Speaker 1: I was a spooky kid, so that didn't help. Um,
Speaker 1: like obsessed with graveyards and death. But um but like
Speaker 1: I so, I've I've floated the idea of a medium
Speaker 1: past them, and they're not into it. I think they
Speaker 1: just don't want to. They don't really like talking about it,
Speaker 1: and they're not really into the whole They kind of
Speaker 1: don't believe it even though everyone has heard it. They're like, oh,
Speaker 1: it's energy, and I'm like, well, that's the same thing.
Speaker 1: Well it's also like I mean, I can kind of
Speaker 1: understand that if it's your home, because it's like I
Speaker 1: feel like it's one of these things where the more
Speaker 1: you buy into it, or not necessarily buy into it,
Speaker 1: like with money, like with the medium, but like yourself,
Speaker 1: like the more you acknowledge that this is like an
Speaker 1: ongoing thing, the more I feel like I would just
Speaker 1: like imagine more things happen. Totally. Because it's this ongoing
Speaker 1: situation that I've now diagnosed within my house, it feels easier.
Speaker 1: I Mean, even when people are like, straight up, do
Speaker 1: you for sure believe it ghosts, I'm like, well, how
Speaker 1: the fund do I Yeah, I don't know. I just
Speaker 1: I'll tell you the evidence and you tell me, like,
Speaker 1: what else could it be? It's a really talented raccoon
Speaker 1: coming in and practicing. Yes, maybe it's possible. Man, you
Speaker 1: should be so lucky. Yeah. I just feel like it's
Speaker 1: definitely something that we don't have an ex a nation
Speaker 1: for that we can put any kind of like neat
Speaker 1: you know, there's no real explanation for it. It's something
Speaker 1: that just this murky, weird mystery that I've really enjoy
Speaker 1: I was just going to say, how much time do
Speaker 1: you spend like thinking about this and looking into it?
Speaker 1: Because honestly, if it were me, I would spend twenty
Speaker 1: four hours a day just google people and trying to
Speaker 1: get to the bottom of it. When I let myself
Speaker 1: I do that, Like I when I was home and
Speaker 1: I was doing all that research, I was I was
Speaker 1: like texting my family every five minutes for like a week,
Speaker 1: and they were like okay, please um. But so when
Speaker 1: I when I have time and I have the inclination,
Speaker 1: I get really deep into it. But then I kind
Speaker 1: of have to step back and be like, Okay, there's
Speaker 1: like a million people with this girl's name in America.
Speaker 1: We don't even know who she married. It's really hard
Speaker 1: to find her because she's gone off the grid basically,
Speaker 1: or she completely changed her name. But I'm obsessed with
Speaker 1: the idea of finding her, and I really want to.
Speaker 1: So she came back, Well, she came back when she
Speaker 1: was eighteen, you said, or she like, did she finish
Speaker 1: high school? Fair? I think she. I think she went
Speaker 1: off somewhere like or she finished high school. All I
Speaker 1: know is that she had a monkey as a baby.
Speaker 1: That's all I know. I don't know exactly where she
Speaker 1: got any monkey. Soda oats, yeah, all the secrets. Maybe
Speaker 1: the monkey lives in the house. It's playing the piano.
Speaker 1: Oh maybe of an old as monkey. You don't these
Speaker 1: like babies are a bugaboo. And if there's like a
Speaker 1: Phantom of the opera monkey living in the basement and
Speaker 1: like coming up, like a year old monkey like comes
Speaker 1: up occasionally to play at the piano my symphony, that
Speaker 1: would actually be a really exciting explanation. I feel like
Speaker 1: I may have seen you play this piano, perhaps on
Speaker 1: social media. Is that possible? Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, my
Speaker 1: not me. I don't play the piano, but my my
Speaker 1: grandparents and my sisters and my dad. I'll play to me,
Speaker 1: it's the same one that they had. They no, it's
Speaker 1: not the same. Okay, it's my grandparents piano. I want
Speaker 1: to know if the piano is playing, if you go
Speaker 1: look at the piano, do you think it looks like
Speaker 1: one of those player pianos where the depressing or is
Speaker 1: it like a different Like the noise isn't coming from
Speaker 1: that piano, it's like coming from a different piano. I'm
Speaker 1: never going to say about this, by the way, I know,
Speaker 1: I don't think it's coming I don't necessarily think it's
Speaker 1: coming from the piano. I think that it doesn't sound
Speaker 1: like a piano downstairs plane. Well it does, but I
Speaker 1: can't tell you if it's like coming from that room.
Speaker 1: It just sounds like it's downstairs and maybe their piano
Speaker 1: was in the same spot, But I don't I don't
Speaker 1: think that literally, like someone is planking on the piano, right,
Speaker 1: It doesn't sound that. No, like it's the same. It's
Speaker 1: more it's a different dimension with the present. Yeah, so
Speaker 1: this is like overall like a positive thing in your childhood. Like, yeah,
Speaker 1: I think of like my neighbor Toto and they're like, yeah,
Speaker 1: we live in a haunted house. About it? Just like
Speaker 1: I loved it. I was like, let's go to Grandma's
Speaker 1: all the time. I loved it and I loved sleeping there,
Speaker 1: and I would freak myself out. I had a brief
Speaker 1: period in high school when I got really scared. I
Speaker 1: think this was after I heard the story from my
Speaker 1: friend and I would run past the piano when I
Speaker 1: came over, like I couldn't look at it, even though
Speaker 1: I don't know what like I would have seen. But
Speaker 1: I had like a weird period. I put my hand
Speaker 1: over my eye. But then I got back into it
Speaker 1: again a little Wednesday. Atom, so you were like owning it. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I was obsessed. I asked my dad now and like,
Speaker 1: weren't you ever worried that I was so obsessed with
Speaker 1: death and I just go sit in cemeteries. He was like,
Speaker 1: um No. I was like, okay, Dad, seemed like such
Speaker 1: a good sport about It's amazing. Yeah. I mean, I like,
Speaker 1: I remember wishing that I lived in a haunted house
Speaker 1: when we moved houses, when I think before I was
Speaker 1: in third grade, and I think I had kind of
Speaker 1: figured out I don't know if it was told to me.
Speaker 1: But I knew that the previous owner of the house
Speaker 1: had been like an old man, like a widower, and
Speaker 1: he had most likely died in the house. Um, And
Speaker 1: so I loved to kind of spook myself. There's like
Speaker 1: a weird crawl space in attic and I would like
Speaker 1: poke my head in and freak myself out. We would
Speaker 1: have been friends, yeah, But I was like, there's nothing
Speaker 1: interesting there. It was just like I don't know, it
Speaker 1: was there's nothing haunted about it. I mean, everything feels
Speaker 1: a little bit like dank and haunted in the Pacific Northwest.
Speaker 1: But but there was no actual ghost activity. I keep
Speaker 1: saying like I would if if show me show me
Speaker 1: any paranormal act, I would love to see it. Show
Speaker 1: me a go show me. I do believe though that
Speaker 1: like you have to, I mean that whole thing about
Speaker 1: you have to kind of be open to it. I agree,
Speaker 1: like I think because I was so into that as
Speaker 1: a kid. It was kind of I was a bit
Speaker 1: of a portal. I was like a girlfriend Poulter guys,
Speaker 1: putting my hands on the TV, on the piano. Also,
Speaker 1: the haunted street, I am now, no, not my street
Speaker 1: now but the street that I lived on until I
Speaker 1: was five, which is like down the street from where
Speaker 1: we record this podcast. It's Sierra Bonita in Hollywood. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I like, is that haunted? Yeah? I like found out
Speaker 1: as an adult that it's like famously haunted. What do
Speaker 1: you mean there's supposedly like a like a haunted stagecoach
Speaker 1: goes down it Really I think I learned about it
Speaker 1: actually from less than Zero because he talks about it
Speaker 1: in Less than Zero, but it also comes up a
Speaker 1: lot of like California ghost history books that like Sierra No.
Speaker 1: I know about this, Yeah, yeah, because I I used
Speaker 1: to ride my bike up Sierra Bonita and then I
Speaker 1: think I I and I used to this again we're
Speaker 1: revealing stuff about stages in our life. I used to
Speaker 1: keep a copy of less Than Zero on my nightstand,
Speaker 1: Uh just like read read a page of it like
Speaker 1: before going to sleep every night. But I do remember
Speaker 1: I think that, Yeah, that that that all? Yeah, I
Speaker 1: do remember that. It also you see it in actual
Speaker 1: like California ghost history books, which I also yeah a
Speaker 1: little bit of um, but they also in mulhalland Drive.
Speaker 1: I think the apartment complex that they live on is
Speaker 1: on Sierra Bonita. It's it's called like the Sierra Bonita
Speaker 1: Apartments or something, which I thought was a fun a
Speaker 1: fun touch because it's haunted. Yeah, it's mad haunted. I
Speaker 1: mean there's a lot of haunting going on. I live
Speaker 1: really close to there's like this haunted house with like
Speaker 1: a torture dungeon that I passed. Sometimes I'm just like,
Speaker 1: I don't know. It's the Black Dahlia House really, but
Speaker 1: I'm not into it because I'm like afraid of it.
Speaker 1: You know, I've been. I've been there. I won't do it. Man.
Speaker 1: I went there as a kid once again, I didn't
Speaker 1: know it was haunted. My brother's friend lived there and
Speaker 1: we picked him up from a sleepover. And it's the
Speaker 1: weirdest house because it's like you're talking about the one
Speaker 1: on Franklin, right. Yeah, it's built by Frank Lloyd Wright Jr.
Speaker 1: It's called like the Shark House or so in house
Speaker 1: it's called the people called it the Jaws House because
Speaker 1: it looks like a shark. It looks like a Jaws. Yeah,
Speaker 1: it's terrified looking. And then sort of recently it came
Speaker 1: out that it was like where this surgeon lived who
Speaker 1: was probably the Black Delia Killer. But when I went
Speaker 1: there to pick him up from the sleepover, it was like,
Speaker 1: it's this house that has this giant outdoor patio in
Speaker 1: the middle, this like large open space like an atrium,
Speaker 1: like an atrium with like a pond and stuff. And
Speaker 1: I just remember being like, this is the creepiest place
Speaker 1: I've ever been. Like my brother I was talking about
Speaker 1: sleeping over there and like having to get up and
Speaker 1: use the bathroom at night, being like very scary. Yeah,
Speaker 1: And then again later vindicated it is different from the
Speaker 1: Ennis House, right, different, but it looks a lot. It
Speaker 1: looks Frankloid Right. Junior built a bunch of kind of
Speaker 1: Frankloyd Right knockoffs you know that are that are good.
Speaker 1: But this one just looks like legos. It looks like
Speaker 1: it's been built with legos. We'll take a picture of it.
Speaker 1: Can you can you airbnb it? Well, somebody was saying, actually,
Speaker 1: I did a podcast, I did the sup doc which
Speaker 1: is a documentary podcasts down the hill from there, and
Speaker 1: they were saying that like somebody had bought it and
Speaker 1: then was using it as an event space, and that
Speaker 1: all the neighbors were mad because they were constantly. Somebody
Speaker 1: bought it for like a weed, a wed start up
Speaker 1: or something. It looks like that's probably destiny. That is
Speaker 1: bad for your startup. You're haunted like a bunch of
Speaker 1: really stoned people in a murder house. But it's also great.
Speaker 1: Maybe they haunted weed. Maybe the weed got ghosts in it. Again,
Speaker 1: I love that idea, right, Maybe the black Daya is
Speaker 1: a strain of weed. I've literally never seen this. Can
Speaker 1: you see it from the street? Yeah, I'll post a picture.
Speaker 1: It's really scary looking. No, I'm no. I mean I'm
Speaker 1: looking at it right now, but I'm like, I've never
Speaker 1: seen this. For a while. It was really overgrown. It
Speaker 1: was on the market like two years ago, I think,
Speaker 1: and it had like a bunch of kind of landscaping
Speaker 1: that had gone nuts in front so he couldn't really
Speaker 1: see it. And then they ripped out all the landscaping
Speaker 1: and they did this like really cool landscaping. But then
Speaker 1: it's just like it's a very strange looking house. So
Speaker 1: you just started like that it looks like a haunted house.
Speaker 1: It looks very haunted. My whole thing with houses is
Speaker 1: that I get like, I just get vibes, but I
Speaker 1: don't think I have a very good like spiritual read.
Speaker 1: So I'm always like, oh, if you sleep on a
Speaker 1: level that's below street level, you know, if you have
Speaker 1: to walk down to go to your bedroom, you'll get suppressed.
Speaker 1: And I stand by this. I think in in specific
Speaker 1: houses or any house where it's like an upside down
Speaker 1: floor plan where the bedrooms or a bedroom are like
Speaker 1: below the main floor, I feel strong, right, I totally
Speaker 1: you have the weight of your house on you while
Speaker 1: you It's true. I am also I'm also a big
Speaker 1: vibe person. Like if I walk into a house or
Speaker 1: a restaurant, I can I'm instantly like I want to
Speaker 1: kill myself. I have to lose. Yeah, oh I have
Speaker 1: that all the places. Yeah, there are places where I'm
Speaker 1: just like I know I'm supposed to like meet somebody
Speaker 1: for dinner in there, but like maybe we can go
Speaker 1: someplace all maybe not. I walked out of so many restaurants.
Speaker 1: I'm like the worst timemtenance bitch a lot. I'm like,
Speaker 1: I can't eat in here. I will die. Have some
Speaker 1: credibility as a haunting expert, you could, yeah, I everybody like, no,
Speaker 1: this place is haunted. We don't want to go here.
Speaker 1: It's true. We're like this place isn't haunted enough. We
Speaker 1: should go to the more. I also feel like eating
Speaker 1: in a haunted places like somehow worse than just being
Speaker 1: in a haunted place. Yeah, yeah, because I can't. Yeah exactly. Yeah. Uh.
Speaker 1: Night call listeners. If you have ever eaten in a
Speaker 1: haunted place, or if you have ever gotten immediate bad
Speaker 1: vibes from a restaurant or bar or republic business, please
Speaker 1: give us a night call at one two four oh
Speaker 1: for six night or a night email at night called
Speaker 1: podcast at gmail dot com. I know you guys are laughing,
Speaker 1: but I'm dead serious. You gotta call that number if
Speaker 1: that's true, if you've eaten food and series, I want
Speaker 1: to know. Also, name names, name fucking names. Why I'm
Speaker 1: endorsing the phrase name names on this podcast name boat
Speaker 1: name name. Ghosts. Don't shame ghosts, No, never introduce us
Speaker 1: to them. We would like to meet them. So we
Speaker 1: have a night email this week, very dutifully following up
Speaker 1: on our request for emails and calls about not the
Speaker 1: desert but dessert. Um. And this comes to us from
Speaker 1: at Bordeaux Blues, who has asked to be identified by
Speaker 1: his Twitter handle. And that's good because I don't think
Speaker 1: I couldn't pronounce his name, although I am familiar with
Speaker 1: him from Twitter. So here is Bordo Blues. Hello, dear
Speaker 1: Night Call crew. I really wanted to ask a question
Speaker 1: after listening to the latest episode. But since my only
Speaker 1: desert experience as a kid from Sweden is from my
Speaker 1: mother's hometown in Anatolia and the snowy hills up north
Speaker 1: aren't sufficiently dessert like, maybe asking about desserts is more
Speaker 1: of my lane this time around. And since the first
Speaker 1: dessert that always comes to mind for me is baklava,
Speaker 1: I think all I can ask is what is your
Speaker 1: favorite foreign dessert dish as in an an American pastry
Speaker 1: or something in that general area pastry. Good question, Thank you,
Speaker 1: This is a very good question. And and um, the
Speaker 1: collar emailer is from Sweden. Uh and this just immediately
Speaker 1: made me think of the Swedish Princess Cake from Great
Speaker 1: British Pakeoff. Are you guys familiar well with the show?
Speaker 1: Familiar with the show? Um, I will say that, like
Speaker 1: most of the things on Great British Bake Off, look
Speaker 1: very disgusting. It was agreed the Princess cake, like the
Speaker 1: like million layer cake. Yeah, it's it's like got a
Speaker 1: zillion steps and it's but it's a dome and it
Speaker 1: has a marzipan outer lay. It actually looks like it
Speaker 1: would be really delicious. I don't know if I was
Speaker 1: eating it. I'm not like a super big cake person.
Speaker 1: I'm going to come out hard here and say that
Speaker 1: I like pie for pie. I like I like there
Speaker 1: to be usually why not both Boston Cream Pie again,
Speaker 1: Boston Cream Pie, best of both worlds, not foreign, not no, no,
Speaker 1: but but I just say pi versus cake for the
Speaker 1: thing I've gotten super into in the past couple of years,
Speaker 1: or Choco Pies, which are a Korean version of moon pies,
Speaker 1: which are an American thing. But it's like one of
Speaker 1: those things where somebody like does a cover version and
Speaker 1: it's better than the original. You know. Um, they're just
Speaker 1: like really good. They're not like a pastry per se though,
Speaker 1: they're more of like a snack cake. Um, but snat
Speaker 1: cake can be a dessert. They're like little chocolate disks, um,
Speaker 1: And they're delicious and I recommend um. I haven't had
Speaker 1: the Choco pies. I don't think I feel like i've
Speaker 1: had versions of it, I if we're talking about Asian
Speaker 1: pastries or like, I don't know, this isn't a favorite,
Speaker 1: but I just love the idea of it. Um. There's
Speaker 1: like a very like everywhere type of cake in Japan
Speaker 1: called the castella cake, which is like a weird kind
Speaker 1: of Portuguese cake that's been turned into a Japanese cake. Um,
Speaker 1: and people give them as gifts like they're it's like
Speaker 1: it's basically like a pancake, but it comes in a
Speaker 1: really fancy box. Yeah, I mean, but it's super basic.
Speaker 1: But the thing about the castella cake is like, well,
Speaker 1: one they because it's like it's Japanese, and they put
Speaker 1: as much packaging as possible. A lot of times they'll
Speaker 1: be cut already in individual slices with like pieces of
Speaker 1: paper something in between them, like these perfect little slices. Um.
Speaker 1: And also because of the way that the climate is
Speaker 1: in Japan, a lot of times they vaguely taste of mildew,
Speaker 1: like this is just a feature, not a bug that
Speaker 1: they kind of taste like mildew. Uh. And also each
Speaker 1: town I think has like their own castella cake, but
Speaker 1: they all taste the same as far as I can
Speaker 1: it's just like a weird kind of like cake of
Speaker 1: the mind. Yeah, cake, that's basically it. I like it's
Speaker 1: art objects. I mean, I think on the Great British
Speaker 1: Bake Off that comes up a lot, all the pastry
Speaker 1: creating shows. It's like, I just find frosting disgusting. So
Speaker 1: you're not into I'm very like prejudiced against a lot
Speaker 1: of Midwestern foods. It turns out, yeah, because of wow rude,
Speaker 1: it's very rude. I'm sorry. I like a rustic tart y'all.
Speaker 1: I like some house Walk California review. But I'm trying
Speaker 1: to think, like what's the most the most like fun pie.
Speaker 1: I'm gonna say for my foreign dessert, I'm going to
Speaker 1: stand for Tira missu. Tira Missy was the first dessert
Speaker 1: I truly enjoyed. I think tiramisu would definitely be served
Speaker 1: at Roman Memories, Molly and My nineties themes. Yeah, and
Speaker 1: black forest cake. I don't like black forest I don't
Speaker 1: really like fruit and chocolate. It's a black forest ice
Speaker 1: cream of like a black forest cake themed ice cream
Speaker 1: at an ice cream place I went all the time
Speaker 1: called Swenson's, and then I like that sounds great, all
Speaker 1: the time. You know what ice cream I think about
Speaker 1: all the time. It's not ice cream, it's a gelato.
Speaker 1: Hogandas how this hazelnut gelato, it was the best thing
Speaker 1: that I ever had in my entire life. And then
Speaker 1: they know it was not at all chocolate e. It
Speaker 1: was like it was just so good and the texture
Speaker 1: it was like a little bit. It was a very
Speaker 1: good gelato texture is very soft and scupable, even right
Speaker 1: from the freezer, and it was like fluffy and that
Speaker 1: the flavor was like so good and they got rid
Speaker 1: of it, you guys, and I've been looking. It's like
Speaker 1: the entimate Black got into the chocolate pip because there
Speaker 1: was a place in the Second Street mall in Little
Speaker 1: Tokyo that had like a choco pie ice cream with
Speaker 1: the chopped up choco pies and it was like it's
Speaker 1: like a moon pie but Korean, and so I got
Speaker 1: the ice cream and that was the gateway to getting
Speaker 1: into the chocolate trust trust Es. I'm going to also
Speaker 1: throw out it's good honestly, can be too wet. It
Speaker 1: really depends on the lady Chira Misu saying a cake
Speaker 1: Tierra Tierra Missu. What I mean tess le Chase is like, literally,
Speaker 1: isn't like three mi three miles it's but honestly, sometimes
Speaker 1: I was getting I was getting that three milk cake
Speaker 1: and then eventually I was like, it's just so I
Speaker 1: love that I couldn't get with it anymore. My favorite
Speaker 1: is Pavlova, which is apparently Australia whatever. It's like a
