At each week 12 00:01:15,400 --> 00:01:18,039 Speaker 1: on this show, I'll be bringing you brand new mind 13 00:01:18,040 --> 00:01:23,080 Speaker 1: blowing content, news, exercises, and weird experiments you could do 14 00:01:23,120 --> 00:01:27,959 Speaker 1: at home, and a lot more. This is my first 15 00:01:28,240 --> 00:01:32,160 Speaker 1: new recording of the year twenty twenty three. This is 16 00:01:32,319 --> 00:01:38,959 Speaker 1: January and last Christmas Day, December twenty fifth of twenty 17 00:01:39,000 --> 00:01:41,920 Speaker 1: twenty two. As Lauren and I were sitting at home 18 00:01:42,959 --> 00:01:46,920 Speaker 1: enjoying the festivities, talking about peace on earth and goodwill 19 00:01:47,000 --> 00:01:50,800 Speaker 1: towards all, and love and generosity and all these wonderful 20 00:01:50,800 --> 00:01:58,280 Speaker 1: things somebody at the same time was robbing my storage unit. 21 00:02:00,480 --> 00:02:04,640 Speaker 1: Talk about some granchy stuff. I mean, isn't that. It's 22 00:02:04,680 --> 00:02:10,200 Speaker 1: so sad. I'm going to tell you what was stolen. 23 00:02:10,520 --> 00:02:15,840 Speaker 1: But the thing is, there's some really weird stuff here 24 00:02:17,240 --> 00:02:20,480 Speaker 1: surrounding this whole story, and so I will get into that. 25 00:02:21,080 --> 00:02:23,840 Speaker 1: And you know, I sent out a newsletter recently and 26 00:02:23,880 --> 00:02:26,079 Speaker 1: I said, you know, I got some bad news I'll 27 00:02:26,120 --> 00:02:30,520 Speaker 1: tell you about. So look, I'm fine, Lauren's fine, everybody's okay. 28 00:02:31,520 --> 00:02:35,960 Speaker 1: But it's just really unfortunate when something like this happens 29 00:02:35,960 --> 00:02:38,600 Speaker 1: on Christmas Day. So we're going to dig into all 30 00:02:38,639 --> 00:02:42,240 Speaker 1: of that and a lot more. But first, most of 31 00:02:42,280 --> 00:02:45,119 Speaker 1: my holiday break, because you know, I took off quite 32 00:02:45,280 --> 00:02:47,480 Speaker 1: quite a while for the holidays, had a lot of 33 00:02:47,520 --> 00:02:49,920 Speaker 1: catching up to do here at my new house in 34 00:02:50,000 --> 00:02:55,920 Speaker 1: Las Vegas. Most of my holiday experience was wonderful, and 35 00:02:55,960 --> 00:02:57,440 Speaker 1: I want to tell you first about some of the 36 00:02:57,440 --> 00:02:59,959 Speaker 1: great things that happened before I get to that. Though, 37 00:03:00,800 --> 00:03:03,400 Speaker 1: I just made a note of this. This is pretty random, 38 00:03:03,520 --> 00:03:07,520 Speaker 1: but I wanted to mention this before I forgot. Of course, 39 00:03:08,560 --> 00:03:12,880 Speaker 1: the latter part of twenty twenty two was taken up 40 00:03:13,360 --> 00:03:18,480 Speaker 1: in large part by media coverage of the terrible murder 41 00:03:19,200 --> 00:03:23,320 Speaker 1: of these four college students in Idaho who were all 42 00:03:23,560 --> 00:03:26,360 Speaker 1: stabbed to death in the middle of the night. And 43 00:03:27,040 --> 00:03:32,360 Speaker 1: I just recently realized that that murder spree took place 44 00:03:32,560 --> 00:03:37,800 Speaker 1: on November the thirteenth, and instantly I was like, that's 45 00:03:37,800 --> 00:03:40,960 Speaker 1: a familiar date, because of course I am from Asheville, 46 00:03:41,000 --> 00:03:44,280 Speaker 1: North Carolina. That's where I was born and raised, and 47 00:03:45,640 --> 00:03:51,840 Speaker 1: November the thirteenth is the anniversary of Asheville's largest mass 48 00:03:51,960 --> 00:03:56,080 Speaker 1: murder killing spree, the Will Harris murders, and those happened 49 00:03:56,120 --> 00:04:00,480 Speaker 1: in nineteen oh six. So now there are in my 50 00:04:00,560 --> 00:04:04,720 Speaker 1: world two famous kind of murder sprees that happened on 51 00:04:04,760 --> 00:04:09,600 Speaker 1: November the thirteenth. So maybe that's another one of those 52 00:04:09,720 --> 00:04:12,560 Speaker 1: bad luck dates that we have to start paying attention 53 00:04:12,720 --> 00:04:16,880 Speaker 1: to from here on out. So again, kind of random, 54 00:04:16,960 --> 00:04:22,000 Speaker 1: but thought provoking nonetheless. Okay, So before I get into 55 00:04:22,040 --> 00:04:24,800 Speaker 1: this weird story about what happened to me on Christmas, 56 00:04:25,000 --> 00:04:26,760 Speaker 1: and I trust me, I know a lot of you 57 00:04:26,920 --> 00:04:30,400 Speaker 1: had a rough time this past holiday season, I'm going 58 00:04:30,480 --> 00:04:32,720 Speaker 1: to talk about all that as well. But first I'll 59 00:04:32,720 --> 00:04:34,360 Speaker 1: tell you about some of the good things and really 60 00:04:34,400 --> 00:04:38,800 Speaker 1: interesting things that happened to me, producer Tom dan Heiser. 61 00:04:38,960 --> 00:04:42,279 Speaker 1: He came here to Las Vegas and he invited me 62 00:04:43,360 --> 00:04:48,480 Speaker 1: to go see a John Fogerty concert with him at 63 00:04:48,520 --> 00:04:52,400 Speaker 1: the Win and he had these primo seats. Now, of course, 64 00:04:52,560 --> 00:04:59,919 Speaker 1: John Fogerty he created basically, you know, Credence Clearwater Revival CCW, 65 00:05:01,240 --> 00:05:04,880 Speaker 1: and he more or less wrote and performed all those 66 00:05:04,920 --> 00:05:11,240 Speaker 1: famous songs. And he is I think seventy seven years old, yeah, 67 00:05:11,640 --> 00:05:15,080 Speaker 1: seventy seven, and he still gets up on stage and 68 00:05:15,240 --> 00:05:18,839 Speaker 1: dances and sings and plays like you wouldn't believe. It's 69 00:05:18,880 --> 00:05:22,080 Speaker 1: just like, you know, you never I couldn't get up 70 00:05:22,080 --> 00:05:24,640 Speaker 1: there and perform like this guy does. And he's a 71 00:05:24,640 --> 00:05:27,680 Speaker 1: lot older than I am. And Tom and I had 72 00:05:27,720 --> 00:05:30,120 Speaker 1: such a blast because one of the things that is 73 00:05:30,160 --> 00:05:33,880 Speaker 1: impressive is that you don't realize it until you sit 74 00:05:33,920 --> 00:05:36,159 Speaker 1: there and you listen to this guy perform for you know, 75 00:05:36,200 --> 00:05:38,279 Speaker 1: an hour and forty five minutes. You don't realize like 76 00:05:38,360 --> 00:05:43,440 Speaker 1: every single one of his songs was a hit, you 77 00:05:43,560 --> 00:05:46,080 Speaker 1: know them all. I don't even know how many hits 78 00:05:46,200 --> 00:05:50,640 Speaker 1: the guy had, and that it's just kind of mind 79 00:05:50,680 --> 00:05:53,839 Speaker 1: boggling to sit there and have this guy packed you know, 80 00:05:53,880 --> 00:05:55,839 Speaker 1: two hours with hits and he could have kept going. 81 00:05:55,880 --> 00:05:59,000 Speaker 1: I'm sure, so what a talented songwriter. But I do 82 00:05:59,080 --> 00:06:01,200 Speaker 1: want to mention this because sometimes, since I live here 83 00:06:01,279 --> 00:06:04,240 Speaker 1: at Vegas, when I get to go see people in person, 84 00:06:05,160 --> 00:06:09,080 Speaker 1: they'll tell a story about their lives that stands out 85 00:06:09,120 --> 00:06:10,960 Speaker 1: in my mind, and I like to pass those stories 86 00:06:11,000 --> 00:06:13,080 Speaker 1: along to you. I did that recently with Wayne Newton, 87 00:06:13,640 --> 00:06:17,080 Speaker 1: and so John Fogerty at one point he was standing 88 00:06:17,080 --> 00:06:19,640 Speaker 1: there on stage and he was pausing for a moment 89 00:06:19,680 --> 00:06:26,359 Speaker 1: and he said, you know, I played Woodstock. You know, 90 00:06:26,440 --> 00:06:30,400 Speaker 1: he was at Woodstock, and he was a lot of 91 00:06:30,560 --> 00:06:33,840 Speaker 1: big events in the nineteen sixties. And as a matter 92 00:06:33,880 --> 00:06:36,880 Speaker 1: of fact, he said much Woodstock was just so muddy 93 00:06:36,920 --> 00:06:39,960 Speaker 1: and rainy that you know, he wrote one of his 94 00:06:40,040 --> 00:06:43,159 Speaker 1: songs about the wind will the rain end. I can't 95 00:06:43,200 --> 00:06:45,120 Speaker 1: remember what the song is called. He wrote a number 96 00:06:45,120 --> 00:06:48,800 Speaker 1: of songs about rain. But anyway, so he said that 97 00:06:49,400 --> 00:06:51,480 Speaker 1: when he was there on stage at Woodstock, you know, 98 00:06:51,520 --> 00:06:57,279 Speaker 1: he was playing this favorite guitar of his, and he 99 00:06:57,640 --> 00:07:00,760 Speaker 1: used this guitar all over the country, if not the world, 100 00:07:00,800 --> 00:07:03,960 Speaker 1: for many many years in his performances. And he said, 101 00:07:04,000 --> 00:07:06,760 Speaker 1: one day he goes he didn't get into details, but 102 00:07:06,839 --> 00:07:10,040 Speaker 1: he goes, I met this like little boy who wanted 103 00:07:10,080 --> 00:07:12,440 Speaker 1: to be a rock star, and he was trying to 104 00:07:12,520 --> 00:07:15,200 Speaker 1: learn guitar and he didn't have a guitar. And he goes, 105 00:07:15,240 --> 00:07:17,640 Speaker 1: I don't know. I got to overcome, and he said, 106 00:07:17,800 --> 00:07:21,960 Speaker 1: I gave this kid my prize guitar. You know, I 107 00:07:22,000 --> 00:07:26,920 Speaker 1: just gifted it him. And he didn't say at that time. 108 00:07:27,240 --> 00:07:28,800 Speaker 1: John Fogerty did not say if he was in the 109 00:07:28,920 --> 00:07:31,000 Speaker 1: right state of mind, but he certainly said that he 110 00:07:31,160 --> 00:07:34,320 Speaker 1: regretted it. The next day he missed that guitar. Right, 111 00:07:35,160 --> 00:07:38,280 Speaker 1: the guitar he played at Woodstock he gave to some 112 00:07:38,440 --> 00:07:42,120 Speaker 1: random kid. Now, I bet you think the end of 113 00:07:42,120 --> 00:07:44,800 Speaker 1: this story is going to be like and that kid 114 00:07:44,840 --> 00:07:47,080 Speaker 1: became Eddie Venner, right, you know that would be a 115 00:07:47,280 --> 00:07:49,080 Speaker 1: but no, it doesn't end like that at all. As 116 00:07:49,120 --> 00:07:54,160 Speaker 1: a matter of fact, this kid apparently did nothing with 117 00:07:54,200 --> 00:08:00,240 Speaker 1: this guitar and it was just lost, and so he always, yeah, 118 00:08:00,040 --> 00:08:03,200 Speaker 1: he was always like missing this guitar. And then a 119 00:08:03,200 --> 00:08:07,480 Speaker 1: few years ago, on Christmas morning, he goes over to 120 00:08:07,600 --> 00:08:09,720 Speaker 1: the tree at his house and there's a big box 121 00:08:09,720 --> 00:08:13,720 Speaker 1: there and he opens it and guess what it's this guitar. 122 00:08:14,000 --> 00:08:19,440 Speaker 1: His wife. His wife knew how much he loved that guitar, 123 00:08:19,480 --> 00:08:22,440 Speaker 1: and she'd spent all this time like tracking that thing 124 00:08:22,560 --> 00:08:26,600 Speaker 1: down and bringing it back into his life. And he 125 00:08:27,000 --> 00:08:29,520 Speaker 1: said it was like the best Christmas present ever. And 126 00:08:29,600 --> 00:08:33,480 Speaker 1: he says, and this is that guitar, and he lifts 127 00:08:33,520 --> 00:08:36,760 Speaker 1: it up and he's holding that guitar and then he 128 00:08:36,800 --> 00:08:40,240 Speaker 1: starts playing songs on it. So I mean, like, I 129 00:08:40,280 --> 00:08:44,440 Speaker 1: love these kind of like strange stories about synchronicity and 130 00:08:44,520 --> 00:08:47,040 Speaker 1: the twist and turns the life takes and how things 131 00:08:47,120 --> 00:08:50,440 Speaker 1: like that can come back to you. So you know, 132 00:08:50,520 --> 00:08:52,480 Speaker 1: it was just it was an awesome time. And Tom 133 00:08:52,520 --> 00:08:55,360 Speaker 1: and I just had a wonderful evening in Las Vegas. 134 00:08:55,400 --> 00:08:57,800 Speaker 1: And yeah, thank you so much, Tom for inviting me 135 00:08:57,880 --> 00:09:00,360 Speaker 1: to do that. And let me just tell you, if 136 00:09:00,360 --> 00:09:02,520 Speaker 1: you've never been to a John Fogerty concert, you get 137 00:09:02,559 --> 00:09:04,160 Speaker 1: a chance to do it, you should do it. But 138 00:09:04,320 --> 00:09:07,600 Speaker 1: you're not gonna hear anything in your head for like 139 00:09:07,760 --> 00:09:10,520 Speaker 1: the next week or two except John Fogerty songs. It 140 00:09:10,600 --> 00:09:14,679 Speaker 1: drives you crazy. So that was awesome. Speaking of music, 141 00:09:15,360 --> 00:09:18,720 Speaker 1: you know I've talked I had been calling him Jim 142 00:09:18,800 --> 00:09:23,679 Speaker 1: Klanna the composer, but it's Jim Cologna. He's from Italian descent. 143 00:09:23,800 --> 00:09:26,400 Speaker 1: Jim Colonna. He never corrected me. That's what a nice 144 00:09:26,440 --> 00:09:29,240 Speaker 1: guy he is. Jim Colonna. He is the guy who 145 00:09:29,280 --> 00:09:31,439 Speaker 1: was so inspired by the work that I've done over 146 00:09:31,440 --> 00:09:34,280 Speaker 1: the years that he composed this work of music called 147 00:09:34,360 --> 00:09:39,360 Speaker 1: Joshua's Shop of Miracles and Curiosities, and it was performed 148 00:09:39,400 --> 00:09:44,440 Speaker 1: recently near Washington, d C. And it's a fantastic piece 149 00:09:44,440 --> 00:09:46,600 Speaker 1: of music. I played part of it for you on 150 00:09:46,640 --> 00:09:49,680 Speaker 1: this show not too long ago. And after all these 151 00:09:49,760 --> 00:09:53,000 Speaker 1: years of corresponding with Jim, I'd never gotten to meet 152 00:09:53,080 --> 00:09:56,360 Speaker 1: him in person. He was in Las Vegas, and so 153 00:09:56,520 --> 00:09:58,920 Speaker 1: Laurnie and I got together with him for an evening, 154 00:09:59,080 --> 00:10:01,120 Speaker 1: and boy to we hit it off as soon as 155 00:10:01,120 --> 00:10:02,720 Speaker 1: we sat down and started to talk. Well, you know, 156 00:10:02,720 --> 00:10:04,480 Speaker 1: we embraced as soon as we met each other, and 157 00:10:04,480 --> 00:10:06,559 Speaker 1: then it was just like we were old friends. We'd 158 00:10:06,559 --> 00:10:09,840 Speaker 1: known each other forever. He's such a warm and just 159 00:10:09,920 --> 00:10:16,000 Speaker 1: like cheerful and just just a cool, interesting, funny just 160 00:10:16,000 --> 00:10:18,160 Speaker 1: just a great person. But like he's one of those 161 00:10:18,160 --> 00:10:19,880 Speaker 1: guys that I would want to hang out with on 162 00:10:19,920 --> 00:10:22,640 Speaker 1: a regular basis if he lived close to me, and 163 00:10:22,720 --> 00:10:26,239 Speaker 1: so that was fantastic.

I'm your host, the Wizard 208 00:13:46,200 --> 00:13:50,480 Speaker 1: of Weird, Joshua P. Warren, beaming into your wormhole brain 209 00:13:50,640 --> 00:13:55,520 Speaker 1: from my studio in Sin City, Las Vegas, Nevada, where 210 00:13:55,559 --> 00:14:01,439 Speaker 1: every day is golden and every night is silver. Before 211 00:14:01,480 --> 00:14:04,080 Speaker 1: I continue, I did look it up during the break, 212 00:14:04,120 --> 00:14:07,880 Speaker 1: and the John Fogerty song that I was referring to 213 00:14:08,040 --> 00:14:13,559 Speaker 1: is called Who'll Stop the Rain? And I know if 214 00:14:13,600 --> 00:14:16,040 Speaker 1: I leave stuff like that hanging, it's gonna drive some 215 00:14:16,160 --> 00:14:20,720 Speaker 1: of you insane. Who Stop the Rain? But he made 216 00:14:20,760 --> 00:14:22,880 Speaker 1: another song or two about rain, But that was the 217 00:14:22,920 --> 00:14:25,440 Speaker 1: one that he said he wrote when he got back 218 00:14:25,440 --> 00:14:31,040 Speaker 1: to his motel room after playing Woodstock. But anyway, let 219 00:14:31,080 --> 00:14:33,640 Speaker 1: me tell you about this trip that I took that 220 00:14:33,800 --> 00:14:42,960 Speaker 1: turned out to lead me down an interesting road of thought. So, 221 00:14:44,520 --> 00:14:47,320 Speaker 1: being from the East Coast, growing up in the mountains 222 00:14:47,320 --> 00:14:52,480 Speaker 1: of western North Carolina, I was always used to Christmas 223 00:14:52,560 --> 00:15:00,560 Speaker 1: feeling very Christmasy. You've got trees everywhere and snowfall and 224 00:15:01,040 --> 00:15:07,400 Speaker 1: all kinds of kind of like European decorations everywhere seems like, 225 00:15:07,440 --> 00:15:11,720 Speaker 1: you know, the Old Country. But out here in the 226 00:15:11,760 --> 00:15:14,200 Speaker 1: desert when you live in Las Vegas, no matter what 227 00:15:14,480 --> 00:15:17,920 Speaker 1: they do to decorate, it just never quite fills Christmas 228 00:15:18,040 --> 00:15:21,360 Speaker 1: y out here. And for one thing, you're almost certainly 229 00:15:21,400 --> 00:15:24,760 Speaker 1: not going to get any snow. But yeah, the desert. 230 00:15:25,280 --> 00:15:30,120 Speaker 1: And it's ironic because you know, well, the whole Christmas 231 00:15:30,160 --> 00:15:34,360 Speaker 1: story is based in the Middle East, so so the 232 00:15:34,400 --> 00:15:37,880 Speaker 1: desert is really a more Christmasy and like an authentic 233 00:15:38,000 --> 00:15:42,760 Speaker 1: Christmas environment. Then what we think of is this whole 234 00:15:42,800 --> 00:15:47,720 Speaker 1: like European Bavarian Saint Nicholas kind of you know. But anyway, look, 235 00:15:47,760 --> 00:15:50,360 Speaker 1: it's just about what you are exposed to when you 236 00:15:50,400 --> 00:15:53,560 Speaker 1: grow up. But so since we've lived here in Vegas 237 00:15:53,600 --> 00:15:57,720 Speaker 1: for several years, we we always, uh, you know, if 238 00:15:57,760 --> 00:16:00,920 Speaker 1: we don't travel somewhere else, if we kind of stick 239 00:16:00,920 --> 00:16:04,400 Speaker 1: around here, we're like that just doesn't quite feel you know, 240 00:16:04,440 --> 00:16:07,160 Speaker 1: like Christmas time. And so I was wondering about, like, 241 00:16:07,200 --> 00:16:10,600 Speaker 1: what would a relatively easy road trip be that we 242 00:16:10,640 --> 00:16:13,080 Speaker 1: could take to go somewhere that's a little more Christmas set. 243 00:16:13,760 --> 00:16:20,800 Speaker 1: And if you drive a few hours from here into California, 244 00:16:21,480 --> 00:16:27,320 Speaker 1: then you eventually can wind your way up this huge 245 00:16:27,400 --> 00:16:31,160 Speaker 1: mountainous region that's like over seven thousand feet in elevation 246 00:16:31,720 --> 00:16:35,600 Speaker 1: to a place called Big Bear Lake. And Big Bear 247 00:16:35,720 --> 00:16:39,480 Speaker 1: Lake is named after the grizzly bears that used to 248 00:16:39,560 --> 00:16:43,680 Speaker 1: live there. There are no more wild grizzlies in California. 249 00:16:43,760 --> 00:16:46,280 Speaker 1: I consider that a good thing, but you know, some 250 00:16:46,320 --> 00:16:52,080 Speaker 1: people disagree. Nonetheless, it's really weird because you know, to 251 00:16:52,200 --> 00:16:55,240 Speaker 1: get there, and it takes you if you're going to 252 00:16:55,280 --> 00:16:57,160 Speaker 1: stop and get gas and eat. You know, it's like 253 00:16:57,200 --> 00:17:00,560 Speaker 1: a four hour drive from Las Vegas the Big Bear Lake. 254 00:17:01,840 --> 00:17:04,719 Speaker 1: And I did a lot of research on it, and 255 00:17:04,800 --> 00:17:07,600 Speaker 1: it turns out that it was exactly like I was expecting, 256 00:17:07,880 --> 00:17:10,359 Speaker 1: because you go through the Majave Desert and it's like 257 00:17:10,480 --> 00:17:12,639 Speaker 1: desert up until like the last forty five minutes, and 258 00:17:12,640 --> 00:17:15,239 Speaker 1: all of a sudden, there's this dramatic change where you 259 00:17:15,280 --> 00:17:19,640 Speaker 1: just drive up this big, long, super steep winding road 260 00:17:19,720 --> 00:17:22,560 Speaker 1: up and all of a sudden, there's there are forests 261 00:17:22,560 --> 00:17:26,240 Speaker 1: everywhere and streams and there's the lake. And then finally 262 00:17:26,240 --> 00:17:29,600 Speaker 1: you get to the village and Big Bear Lake, and 263 00:17:29,640 --> 00:17:32,080 Speaker 1: it looks like a little village in a snow globe, 264 00:17:32,800 --> 00:17:38,440 Speaker 1: and everything is all like rustic hunting lodge style and old, 265 00:17:38,560 --> 00:17:43,840 Speaker 1: like old old European and Bavarian, and it looks like 266 00:17:43,880 --> 00:17:47,560 Speaker 1: a little Christmas town. I used to tell people when 267 00:17:47,560 --> 00:17:49,240 Speaker 1: I first found it, it looks like a town in a 268 00:17:49,280 --> 00:17:51,840 Speaker 1: Hallmark movie. And then I got there and I realized, like, oh, 269 00:17:51,880 --> 00:17:55,879 Speaker 1: they actually do shoot Hallmark movies in this town. And 270 00:17:55,920 --> 00:17:59,600 Speaker 1: it gets a ton of snowfall. It's very, very isolated. 271 00:17:59,800 --> 00:18:02,840 Speaker 1: So it really was exactly what I was looking for 272 00:18:03,000 --> 00:18:06,399 Speaker 1: in terms of this is the most Christmas y place 273 00:18:06,520 --> 00:18:10,560 Speaker 1: that you're going to get to that's within a reasonable 274 00:18:10,720 --> 00:18:14,680 Speaker 1: period of driving from Las Vegas to my knowledge, Big 275 00:18:14,680 --> 00:18:17,800 Speaker 1: Bear Lake, California. And I'll tell you a little bit 276 00:18:17,840 --> 00:18:20,520 Speaker 1: more about the lake in a minute. So we ended 277 00:18:20,600 --> 00:18:24,400 Speaker 1: up going there, had a great Christmas, like a couple 278 00:18:24,400 --> 00:18:26,400 Speaker 1: of days. It's always spent, but you know, we'd never 279 00:18:26,400 --> 00:18:29,840 Speaker 1: been there before. It's really small. We walked everywhere we went, 280 00:18:29,920 --> 00:18:32,280 Speaker 1: and we hit up all the shops and the bars, 281 00:18:32,320 --> 00:18:36,680 Speaker 1: and I was exposed to cookie dough whiskey, which actually 282 00:18:36,720 --> 00:18:40,359 Speaker 1: is really really good. But I think I drank a 283 00:18:40,400 --> 00:18:45,159 Speaker 1: little too much of it, and then also it's just 284 00:18:45,240 --> 00:18:50,719 Speaker 1: like lots of just quirky, little little themed gift shops. 285 00:18:50,760 --> 00:18:53,360 Speaker 1: It was cool. It was really cool, but it was 286 00:18:53,400 --> 00:18:57,280 Speaker 1: also quite cold. It was thirteen degrees while we were there, 287 00:18:57,760 --> 00:19:00,520 Speaker 1: which I know some of you listening are like, ah, 288 00:19:00,560 --> 00:19:02,800 Speaker 1: but that's always gonna happen because some of you live 289 00:19:03,040 --> 00:19:07,120 Speaker 1: where it's like negative thirty fahrenheit. And if you do that, 290 00:19:07,160 --> 00:19:11,760 Speaker 1: you're just I guess the only good thing about that 291 00:19:11,880 --> 00:19:15,920 Speaker 1: is you get to say ha, a little pansy to 292 00:19:16,080 --> 00:19:18,479 Speaker 1: people like me when I complain about it being thirteen. 293 00:19:18,480 --> 00:19:21,440 Speaker 1: Other than that, everything else about it probably sucks really bad. 294 00:19:22,000 --> 00:19:27,000 Speaker 1: But anyhow, so it was a cool place to visit, 295 00:19:27,119 --> 00:19:29,920 Speaker 1: and all these celebrities have had houses there. But here 296 00:19:30,040 --> 00:19:31,920 Speaker 1: is kind of the creepy thing I wanted to share 297 00:19:31,960 --> 00:19:35,600 Speaker 1: with you. So I before I go to a new place, 298 00:19:35,640 --> 00:19:37,720 Speaker 1: I do all this research and I learned everything I 299 00:19:37,760 --> 00:19:39,760 Speaker 1: can about it, and I read all the tourist stuff 300 00:19:39,760 --> 00:19:43,480 Speaker 1: and watched all the videos about Big Bear Lake, California, 301 00:19:43,640 --> 00:19:46,520 Speaker 1: and I thought I knew everything about it, but it 302 00:19:46,560 --> 00:19:49,960 Speaker 1: turns out there's something that they don't promote about Big 303 00:19:49,960 --> 00:19:55,040 Speaker 1: Bear Lake, and I can see why in retrospect, I 304 00:19:55,080 --> 00:19:58,879 Speaker 1: only found it because I was digging deep, like I 305 00:19:59,000 --> 00:20:02,320 Speaker 1: was going within like layers and a footnote level, and 306 00:20:02,359 --> 00:20:08,800 Speaker 1: I was like, okay, so, okay, here's the story. My wife, 307 00:20:08,920 --> 00:20:14,520 Speaker 1: Lauren is probably the luckiest lady in the world, whether 308 00:20:14,560 --> 00:20:18,480 Speaker 1: she or realizes it or not, because I am her husband. 309 00:20:18,520 --> 00:20:25,479 Speaker 1: She's married to me, and that means that she is 310 00:20:25,600 --> 00:20:32,560 Speaker 1: always being told amazing stories about the world, whether she 311 00:20:32,640 --> 00:20:36,520 Speaker 1: wants to hear them or not. So I'm like having 312 00:20:36,560 --> 00:20:40,840 Speaker 1: your own living podcast there that's giving you, you know, 313 00:20:40,960 --> 00:20:44,640 Speaker 1: breaking news and stories. It's like it's like being married 314 00:20:44,640 --> 00:20:47,640 Speaker 1: to this podcast twenty four to seven. I'm always that's 315 00:20:47,760 --> 00:20:51,480 Speaker 1: you know, you're getting the real me minus the cursing. 316 00:20:51,840 --> 00:20:56,000 Speaker 1: And so so we get in the car and she's 317 00:20:56,040 --> 00:20:59,000 Speaker 1: doing the driving, which is great because she's a much 318 00:20:59,000 --> 00:21:01,720 Speaker 1: better driver than I have ever been. And so we're 319 00:21:01,960 --> 00:21:04,879 Speaker 1: heading off to California and I go, Okay, Lauren, listen 320 00:21:04,880 --> 00:21:13,480 Speaker 1: to this. So here's the story. In the early nineteen eighties, 321 00:21:15,240 --> 00:21:22,560 Speaker 1: Steven Spielberg was on a movie set and one of 322 00:21:22,600 --> 00:21:27,080 Speaker 1: the young ladies who was acting on that set had 323 00:21:27,200 --> 00:21:32,120 Speaker 1: her mother and her little sister on the set also, 324 00:21:32,720 --> 00:21:36,400 Speaker 1: and at one point, Spielberg looks over and he sees 325 00:21:37,040 --> 00:21:40,000 Speaker 1: the mother and the little sister, and the little sister's 326 00:21:40,080 --> 00:21:43,960 Speaker 1: like five years old, having lunch. And Spielberg sees this 327 00:21:44,000 --> 00:21:46,960 Speaker 1: little kid, this five year old, and he's like, that 328 00:21:47,160 --> 00:21:50,159 Speaker 1: kid's got it. You know, talk about this is like 329 00:21:50,240 --> 00:21:52,480 Speaker 1: hitting the lotto when Steven Spielberg looks at you and 330 00:21:52,600 --> 00:21:55,879 Speaker 1: was like, boom, you've got And he goes up and 331 00:21:55,960 --> 00:21:59,119 Speaker 1: he just like starts talking to him. And it turns 332 00:21:59,119 --> 00:22:04,280 Speaker 1: out this little girl all as Heather O'Rourke. And at 333 00:22:04,280 --> 00:22:09,199 Speaker 1: this point Spielberg is looking to cast Poultergeist, which of 334 00:22:09,240 --> 00:22:11,840 Speaker 1: course is this super famous horror movie that came out 335 00:22:11,880 --> 00:22:18,440 Speaker 1: in nineteen eighty two, and in fact, they just they 336 00:22:18,520 --> 00:22:20,600 Speaker 1: just re released it this past October. You know, it 337 00:22:20,640 --> 00:22:23,000 Speaker 1: was an anniversary thing where Lauren and I went and 338 00:22:23,000 --> 00:22:25,280 Speaker 1: watched it on the big screen again, and you know, 339 00:22:25,520 --> 00:22:27,199 Speaker 1: it was a fun movie to watch again, but not 340 00:22:27,240 --> 00:22:29,639 Speaker 1: nearly as impressive as it was in you know, the 341 00:22:29,720 --> 00:22:32,840 Speaker 1: nineteen eighties. One thing that I always thought was interesting 342 00:22:32,880 --> 00:22:36,600 Speaker 1: about Poultergeist is you've got the special effects, but also 343 00:22:36,680 --> 00:22:39,240 Speaker 1: you have it was one of the earliest or one 344 00:22:39,240 --> 00:22:42,000 Speaker 1: of the first movies that showed like the modern day 345 00:22:42,640 --> 00:22:46,720 Speaker 1: esque paranormal investigators going in to do the job. And 346 00:22:46,720 --> 00:22:49,760 Speaker 1: I'm sure you know, watching stuff like that probably inspired 347 00:22:49,800 --> 00:22:54,320 Speaker 1: and affected me. So anyway, he was gonna Spilberg was 348 00:22:54,320 --> 00:22:58,359 Speaker 1: thinking about casting Drew Barrymore, but instead he was like, Nope, 349 00:22:58,359 --> 00:23:02,960 Speaker 1: you're the one, and he cast Heather Rourke turned in. 350 00:23:03,160 --> 00:23:06,800 Speaker 1: I'm sure Drew Barrymore's people were very upset, but then 351 00:23:06,840 --> 00:23:08,720 Speaker 1: she went on to be an Et, which was a 352 00:23:08,800 --> 00:23:12,040 Speaker 1: much bigger, better role, so it worked out. Don't feel 353 00:23:12,080 --> 00:23:16,200 Speaker 1: sorry for Drew Barrymore on this one. So so, Heather o' 354 00:23:16,240 --> 00:23:19,360 Speaker 1: rourke became famous as the little girl in the Poltergeist 355 00:23:19,359 --> 00:23:22,879 Speaker 1: movie who is just entranced by the television with a 356 00:23:22,960 --> 00:23:25,440 Speaker 1: static on it, and then of course he basically gets 357 00:23:25,480 --> 00:23:27,520 Speaker 1: kind of sucked into the TV and then they're trying 358 00:23:27,560 --> 00:23:29,880 Speaker 1: to rescue her from this other dimension the whole time. 359 00:23:31,040 --> 00:23:36,200 Speaker 1: Very eerie concept combining spirituality and electronics and all that stuff, 360 00:23:36,240 --> 00:23:41,600 Speaker 1: which was very very precient in retrospect. So anyway, this 361 00:23:41,640 --> 00:23:44,880 Speaker 1: movie becomes a huge hit. So this little five year 362 00:23:44,880 --> 00:23:48,520 Speaker 1: old girl, Heather o' rourke, she's like an overnight sensation 363 00:23:49,640 --> 00:23:54,240 Speaker 1: and her family was relatively poor. They were from southern California, 364 00:23:54,800 --> 00:23:58,880 Speaker 1: and instantly they like they signed her up for sequels, 365 00:23:59,200 --> 00:24:02,240 Speaker 1: and it just money like they they've never seen, and 366 00:24:02,320 --> 00:24:07,800 Speaker 1: their family starts pouring in, and so this little five 367 00:24:07,880 --> 00:24:11,720 Speaker 1: year old becomes this cash cow. And once the money 368 00:24:11,720 --> 00:24:15,760 Speaker 1: starts pouring in, well, the parents decide that, hey, it's 369 00:24:15,840 --> 00:24:19,719 Speaker 1: time to buy another house somewhere. I don't know if 370 00:24:19,760 --> 00:24:22,040 Speaker 1: it was a vacation home or if it was they 371 00:24:22,080 --> 00:24:25,640 Speaker 1: considered it a primary residency, but they chose to buy 372 00:24:25,640 --> 00:24:30,040 Speaker 1: a house and Big bear Lake, California, this place that 373 00:24:30,119 --> 00:24:32,120 Speaker 1: Lauren and I were on our way to visit, this 374 00:24:32,200 --> 00:24:36,199 Speaker 1: little hallmark town, Big bear Lake, California. So they buy 375 00:24:36,240 --> 00:24:41,960 Speaker 1: this nice house there and she starts attending class there. 376 00:24:42,600 --> 00:24:45,280 Speaker 1: I think they said she was even like a class 377 00:24:45,320 --> 00:24:47,520 Speaker 1: president or something in when she was in the fifth grade. 378 00:24:47,560 --> 00:24:52,120 Speaker 1: I know, things seem to be going well for this family, 379 00:24:54,760 --> 00:24:57,680 Speaker 1: but when we come back from this break, things take 380 00:24:57,760 --> 00:25:01,880 Speaker 1: a terrible twist, and it has to do with them 381 00:25:01,920 --> 00:25:07,280 Speaker 1: living in Big Barrela. I'm Joshua P. Warren. You're listening 382 00:25:07,280 --> 00:25:11,320 Speaker 1: to strange things on the iHeartRadio and Coast to Coast, 383 00:25:11,320 --> 00:25:17,440 Speaker 1: a paranormal podcast network that I'll be right back after 384 00:25:17,560 --> 00:26:00,840 Speaker 1: these important messages. Welcome back to Strange Things on the 385 00:26:00,840 --> 00:26:07,760 Speaker 1: iHeartRadio and Coast to Coast AM Paranormal podcast network. I 386 00:26:07,800 --> 00:26:10,359 Speaker 1: am your host, Joshua P. Warre, and this is the 387 00:26:10,440 --> 00:26:17,159 Speaker 1: show where the unusual becomes usual. You know, Steven Spielberg 388 00:26:17,280 --> 00:26:21,639 Speaker 1: did not direct the movie Poltergeist. He produced it and 389 00:26:21,680 --> 00:26:25,760 Speaker 1: he has a screen writing credit, but the director was 390 00:26:25,800 --> 00:26:32,880 Speaker 1: Toby Hooper, who was most famous for creating the Texas 391 00:26:32,960 --> 00:26:37,240 Speaker 1: Chainsaw Massacre. You know, he wrote and directed that, and 392 00:26:37,280 --> 00:26:41,800 Speaker 1: the guy he hired to shoot that, the director of photography, 393 00:26:42,560 --> 00:26:47,440 Speaker 1: was named Daniel Pearl. And when I was I've talked 394 00:26:47,480 --> 00:26:52,240 Speaker 1: about this on the podcast before. When I was working 395 00:26:52,280 --> 00:26:54,679 Speaker 1: for Warner Brothers movie The Apparition, I was on the 396 00:26:54,800 --> 00:26:58,320 Speaker 1: set in California one evening and it was really late 397 00:26:58,320 --> 00:27:01,200 Speaker 1: and everybody was tired, and they were shuttling the cast 398 00:27:01,240 --> 00:27:05,320 Speaker 1: and crew back and forth from the set to you 399 00:27:05,359 --> 00:27:09,080 Speaker 1: know wherever. I got seated next to this guy and 400 00:27:09,080 --> 00:27:10,840 Speaker 1: I didn't know who he was, and I started chatting 401 00:27:11,160 --> 00:27:13,880 Speaker 1: and it was Daniel Pearl. So I got like fifteen 402 00:27:13,960 --> 00:27:16,359 Speaker 1: or twenty minutes to have this conversation with the guy 403 00:27:16,400 --> 00:27:20,960 Speaker 1: who actually shot the Texas Chainsaw Massacre. So that was cool. 404 00:27:21,320 --> 00:27:26,120 Speaker 1: That's like six degrees of separation from Kevin Bacon. But anyway, 405 00:27:26,160 --> 00:27:32,120 Speaker 1: look back to the story. So Heather O'Rourke's family, they 406 00:27:32,160 --> 00:27:34,360 Speaker 1: buy this house in Big Bear Lake and that's where 407 00:27:34,359 --> 00:27:37,280 Speaker 1: they start living a good chunk of the time, and 408 00:27:37,760 --> 00:27:40,080 Speaker 1: she keeps pulling in money and then finally she's like 409 00:27:40,119 --> 00:27:45,439 Speaker 1: twelve years old and one day she gets really sick. 410 00:27:45,720 --> 00:27:48,960 Speaker 1: They don't know what's wrong with her, and they started 411 00:27:48,960 --> 00:27:51,760 Speaker 1: taking her in for all this testing, and long story short, 412 00:27:51,880 --> 00:27:57,359 Speaker 1: turns out that she had been drinking the well water 413 00:27:57,760 --> 00:28:00,760 Speaker 1: there in Big Bear Lake, California, and there was some 414 00:28:00,840 --> 00:28:05,240 Speaker 1: kind of parasite in it that got into her system 415 00:28:06,240 --> 00:28:10,800 Speaker 1: and she had some kind of super sensitive system and 416 00:28:10,960 --> 00:28:16,800 Speaker 1: ultimately it led to her dying from some kind of 417 00:28:16,840 --> 00:28:20,600 Speaker 1: septic shock that set in when she was twelve years old. 418 00:28:20,640 --> 00:28:25,960 Speaker 1: Isn't that horrible? And you may or may not know that, 419 00:28:26,000 --> 00:28:33,080 Speaker 1: there is this whole phenomenon regarding like the Curse of 420 00:28:33,280 --> 00:28:36,720 Speaker 1: that movie Poultrygeist. All these different people who were involved 421 00:28:36,720 --> 00:28:40,320 Speaker 1: with that movie had or many of these people had 422 00:28:40,560 --> 00:28:43,880 Speaker 1: had bad things that happened to them, tragic endings. It's 423 00:28:43,960 --> 00:28:47,160 Speaker 1: like the Curse of King Todd. Documentaries have been made 424 00:28:47,200 --> 00:28:51,840 Speaker 1: about it, but she is one of the central figures there. 425 00:28:52,720 --> 00:28:57,000 Speaker 1: So that was just an eerie thing. And I wondered 426 00:28:57,040 --> 00:28:58,880 Speaker 1: when I got to Big Bear Lake if anybody would 427 00:28:58,880 --> 00:29:02,680 Speaker 1: talk about it. Nobody did, either they didn't know or 428 00:29:03,240 --> 00:29:07,160 Speaker 1: pretended that they didn't know. So that's just a quirky 429 00:29:07,200 --> 00:29:10,840 Speaker 1: little thing about Big Bear Lake, California. But we, on 430 00:29:10,880 --> 00:29:16,360 Speaker 1: the other hand, we had a fine time. And again 431 00:29:16,400 --> 00:29:19,760 Speaker 1: I'd been having all kinds of good things occurring throughout 432 00:29:19,800 --> 00:29:26,680 Speaker 1: my Christmas season. Oh also, you know what one thing 433 00:29:26,720 --> 00:29:29,480 Speaker 1: about Big Bear Lake before I continue into you know 434 00:29:29,560 --> 00:29:34,840 Speaker 1: what happened with the robbery, is that the Big Bear Lake, 435 00:29:34,960 --> 00:29:37,200 Speaker 1: like so many other of these bodies of water, is 436 00:29:37,280 --> 00:29:42,840 Speaker 1: shrinking tremendously. And you know how bad lake meat is 437 00:29:42,880 --> 00:29:46,400 Speaker 1: getting here. And so I told you that once it 438 00:29:46,480 --> 00:29:50,600 Speaker 1: becomes the snowy season, I want all of us listening 439 00:29:50,600 --> 00:29:54,840 Speaker 1: to this podcast to start trying to manifest historic snowfall 440 00:29:54,920 --> 00:29:59,080 Speaker 1: and the Rocky mountains. And I had doctor Moulder on 441 00:29:59,160 --> 00:30:01,640 Speaker 1: a while back and talk to him about it. He 442 00:30:01,640 --> 00:30:05,800 Speaker 1: he flexes his muscles all the time by creating snowfall 443 00:30:05,840 --> 00:30:10,120 Speaker 1: in places where it's not supposed to snow, like the 444 00:30:10,160 --> 00:30:12,800 Speaker 1: Middle East. You know, He's always sending me stories about 445 00:30:12,800 --> 00:30:16,720 Speaker 1: like look what I did. And you have to realize 446 00:30:16,760 --> 00:30:19,360 Speaker 1: that we need a lot of snowfall this year in 447 00:30:19,440 --> 00:30:22,160 Speaker 1: the Rocky Mountains in the US. And here is why 448 00:30:22,680 --> 00:30:24,640 Speaker 1: you might just think, like, well, you live out west, 449 00:30:24,680 --> 00:30:28,719 Speaker 1: I don't. Who cares, no, no, no. The snowfall from 450 00:30:28,760 --> 00:30:31,560 Speaker 1: the Rocky Mountains makes up the bulk of the water 451 00:30:31,680 --> 00:30:36,560 Speaker 1: that goes into Lake Mead and these other reservoirs, and 452 00:30:36,800 --> 00:30:40,760 Speaker 1: it's rainfall is not going to do it. It's the 453 00:30:40,920 --> 00:30:43,400 Speaker 1: vast majority of it is based upon snowfall and the 454 00:30:43,480 --> 00:30:48,160 Speaker 1: Rocky Mountains. If we don't have enough water here in 455 00:30:48,240 --> 00:30:52,400 Speaker 1: Lake Mead and the surrounding lakes, and that means we 456 00:30:52,560 --> 00:30:59,080 Speaker 1: have less vegetation, less vegetables, and that means less feed 457 00:30:59,120 --> 00:31:04,560 Speaker 1: for livestock. So when there's less vegetables and less feed 458 00:31:04,640 --> 00:31:08,120 Speaker 1: for livestock, and therefore less livestock, well then the prices 459 00:31:08,200 --> 00:31:11,360 Speaker 1: for those things go up, and they go up for 460 00:31:11,400 --> 00:31:13,880 Speaker 1: everybody all over the country. And when the price is 461 00:31:13,920 --> 00:31:16,880 Speaker 1: for everybody goes up in the country, when we're already 462 00:31:17,000 --> 00:31:21,640 Speaker 1: having this inflation period, it starts creating this chain reaction 463 00:31:22,480 --> 00:31:25,840 Speaker 1: where everybody starts paying more for everything. The whole economy 464 00:31:25,880 --> 00:31:30,560 Speaker 1: gets worse. And obviously whatever's happening in the US affects 465 00:31:30,560 --> 00:31:33,920 Speaker 1: the economy dramatically and the rest of the world, And 466 00:31:34,000 --> 00:31:37,720 Speaker 1: so everybody in the world has an interest in there 467 00:31:37,720 --> 00:31:42,400 Speaker 1: being a major snowfall this winter in the Rocky Mountains. 468 00:31:42,520 --> 00:31:45,320 Speaker 1: Start doing whatever you do to manifest right now and 469 00:31:45,360 --> 00:31:49,760 Speaker 1: start making that happen. All right, So let's get to 470 00:31:49,800 --> 00:31:53,760 Speaker 1: this strange story. Well, here in laws Fit, I have 471 00:31:54,000 --> 00:31:57,479 Speaker 1: storage units all over the country, but I have some 472 00:31:57,560 --> 00:32:01,320 Speaker 1: of my most prized possessions, had some of my most 473 00:32:01,320 --> 00:32:05,360 Speaker 1: prized possessions, and two storage units here in Las Vegas. 474 00:32:05,760 --> 00:32:09,320 Speaker 1: So last year I bought this new house, which I'm 475 00:32:09,360 --> 00:32:12,120 Speaker 1: still getting an order. I've accomplished about fifty percent of 476 00:32:12,160 --> 00:32:17,120 Speaker 1: what I intended to over the Christmas break, but still 477 00:32:17,160 --> 00:32:21,600 Speaker 1: fifty fifty percent. So I had two storage units here 478 00:32:21,640 --> 00:32:26,760 Speaker 1: with a bunch of goodies from my museums. Actually, well 479 00:32:26,800 --> 00:32:29,440 Speaker 1: it's I could say museum, but I have owned different 480 00:32:29,560 --> 00:32:37,040 Speaker 1: incarnations of a museum, So we're talking like Crystal Skull, Ufo, 481 00:32:37,160 --> 00:32:44,400 Speaker 1: crash stuff, stuff from Transylvania, signed artifacts, I mean, just 482 00:32:44,520 --> 00:32:49,480 Speaker 1: all kinds of really interesting things. And so I had 483 00:32:49,480 --> 00:32:52,280 Speaker 1: them in two storage units where they have been for 484 00:32:52,760 --> 00:32:57,080 Speaker 1: five years without any problems. But when I got this 485 00:32:57,120 --> 00:32:59,400 Speaker 1: new house, Lauren and I moved to the other side 486 00:32:59,400 --> 00:33:03,360 Speaker 1: of town, which is like thirty minutes away. So I 487 00:33:03,440 --> 00:33:08,120 Speaker 1: decided it was time to consolidate what I had in 488 00:33:08,200 --> 00:33:11,760 Speaker 1: those other two storage units where we used to live 489 00:33:12,640 --> 00:33:17,240 Speaker 1: into one new storage unit here close to my new house. 490 00:33:18,200 --> 00:33:20,720 Speaker 1: So we went and we got a new storage unit, 491 00:33:20,840 --> 00:33:24,000 Speaker 1: a third storage unit, a bigger storage unit, which it 492 00:33:24,000 --> 00:33:27,600 Speaker 1: actually turns out is more more cost effective than having 493 00:33:28,320 --> 00:33:31,160 Speaker 1: two smaller storage units on the other side of town. 494 00:33:31,760 --> 00:33:34,280 Speaker 1: And then Lauren and I got together with our friend 495 00:33:34,440 --> 00:33:38,959 Speaker 1: Jason Sarachi, the famous UFO videographer who lives nearby, and 496 00:33:39,280 --> 00:33:45,360 Speaker 1: Jason helped us move everything from those two storage units 497 00:33:45,400 --> 00:33:49,240 Speaker 1: across town to this one new storage unit. So I 498 00:33:49,240 --> 00:33:51,440 Speaker 1: have all these goodies there that I have plans for 499 00:33:51,600 --> 00:33:56,400 Speaker 1: to put back on display. And here's one of the 500 00:33:56,560 --> 00:34:00,600 Speaker 1: weird things though, and I have talked about this very places. 501 00:34:00,640 --> 00:34:03,200 Speaker 1: You may have heard this when Lauren and I got 502 00:34:03,240 --> 00:34:07,080 Speaker 1: this new storage unit. It's like, this is the building 503 00:34:07,400 --> 00:34:10,960 Speaker 1: is huge, and this is an internal storage unit. And 504 00:34:11,040 --> 00:34:13,560 Speaker 1: this building that's like three or four stories tall. I 505 00:34:13,560 --> 00:34:15,759 Speaker 1: don't know how big it is, but it's fairly new. 506 00:34:16,120 --> 00:34:20,080 Speaker 1: It's gigantic. So you go in there and it's like 507 00:34:20,160 --> 00:34:22,480 Speaker 1: going through a maze until you get up to your 508 00:34:22,560 --> 00:34:27,120 Speaker 1: internal storage unit. There's no telling how many hundreds of 509 00:34:27,160 --> 00:34:30,359 Speaker 1: storage units there are in this place. When we went 510 00:34:30,400 --> 00:34:32,399 Speaker 1: there for the first time, we were like the only 511 00:34:32,440 --> 00:34:35,080 Speaker 1: people there. There were no other customers. It was kind 512 00:34:35,080 --> 00:34:38,320 Speaker 1: of like early on a weekday. And the first odd 513 00:34:38,320 --> 00:34:40,120 Speaker 1: thing that happened was when we went up to our 514 00:34:40,160 --> 00:34:44,080 Speaker 1: storage unit and we were first looking at it. Out 515 00:34:44,080 --> 00:34:48,480 Speaker 1: of this whole place, a woman, uh, just kind of 516 00:34:48,480 --> 00:34:51,440 Speaker 1: a you know, normal looking lady. She comes walking up 517 00:34:51,480 --> 00:34:54,200 Speaker 1: and she opens up the storage unit right next to ours, 518 00:34:54,239 --> 00:34:57,000 Speaker 1: and we were like, that's amazing. Of this whole place, 519 00:34:57,560 --> 00:34:59,680 Speaker 1: we just got this storage unit, and you just happen 520 00:34:59,760 --> 00:35:01,719 Speaker 1: to have this storage unit next to ours, and we 521 00:35:01,719 --> 00:35:03,680 Speaker 1: were like, what a coincidence. And so we're kind of 522 00:35:03,760 --> 00:35:06,799 Speaker 1: laughing and having a little friendly banter. But I just 523 00:35:06,800 --> 00:35:08,800 Speaker 1: felt like that's just one of those odd things in life. 524 00:35:10,320 --> 00:35:15,759 Speaker 1: So then fast forward a few weeks later, which was 525 00:35:15,960 --> 00:35:20,040 Speaker 1: last month in December, we get together with Jason. We 526 00:35:20,040 --> 00:35:24,879 Speaker 1: were in a U haul and we consolidated everything. We 527 00:35:24,920 --> 00:35:28,240 Speaker 1: go back to this big storage unit building, where once again, 528 00:35:28,400 --> 00:35:31,600 Speaker 1: there's like nobody there except for us. We go in, 529 00:35:31,760 --> 00:35:34,799 Speaker 1: we haul all this stuff into the storage unit, and 530 00:35:35,000 --> 00:35:40,480 Speaker 1: lo and behold, guess who appears this woman who has 531 00:35:40,560 --> 00:35:43,640 Speaker 1: the storage unit right beside ours. And we're like, what 532 00:35:43,719 --> 00:35:47,359 Speaker 1: are the chances of that? And she goes, the last 533 00:35:47,440 --> 00:35:49,680 Speaker 1: time I was here was when you were here, and 534 00:35:49,719 --> 00:35:52,239 Speaker 1: we go that's the only time we've ever been here. 535 00:35:53,000 --> 00:35:57,360 Speaker 1: So at this point our mind is blown, and and 536 00:35:57,520 --> 00:35:59,640 Speaker 1: I'm like, are you with the CIA? You know? And 537 00:35:59,680 --> 00:36:04,120 Speaker 1: I started just like joking around with this woman. We 538 00:36:04,200 --> 00:36:07,279 Speaker 1: peek into her storage unit. She has a giant telescope 539 00:36:07,320 --> 00:36:12,480 Speaker 1: in there and some pretty interesting things, and so I say, well, 540 00:36:12,520 --> 00:36:15,279 Speaker 1: I guess we're friends now, you know. It's just like, so, 541 00:36:15,680 --> 00:36:17,680 Speaker 1: what are the literally what are the chances? I've been 542 00:36:17,680 --> 00:36:20,880 Speaker 1: to this place twice? At both times there's practically nobody 543 00:36:20,920 --> 00:36:23,800 Speaker 1: else in the building except for this woman who shows 544 00:36:23,880 --> 00:36:26,720 Speaker 1: up at the storage unit right next to ours. Okay, 545 00:36:28,040 --> 00:36:29,400 Speaker 1: so I ended up I talked to her for a 546 00:36:29,440 --> 00:36:32,040 Speaker 1: little bit and I'm like, well, you know what, maybe 547 00:36:32,040 --> 00:36:34,160 Speaker 1: you need to come out and you got a telescope 548 00:36:34,160 --> 00:36:36,040 Speaker 1: and she goes, oh, I love the stars, And I said, 549 00:36:36,239 --> 00:36:39,120 Speaker 1: maybe you need to come out and do Nafara skywatches 550 00:36:39,239 --> 00:36:44,279 Speaker 1: or something, you know, vegasufos dot com. So anyway, we 551 00:36:44,400 --> 00:36:48,200 Speaker 1: left that whole situation after transferring everything into the new 552 00:36:48,360 --> 00:36:51,080 Speaker 1: storage unit, and and I was having this conversation with 553 00:36:51,160 --> 00:36:54,840 Speaker 1: Lauren and Jason like isn't that amazing? Like what again? 554 00:36:54,920 --> 00:36:57,960 Speaker 1: Like that's just it. It's almost like that phenomenon where 555 00:36:57,960 --> 00:37:02,160 Speaker 1: every time you park your car, somebody is parking next 556 00:37:02,160 --> 00:37:05,080 Speaker 1: to you or they're coming to get out of that 557 00:37:05,200 --> 00:37:07,759 Speaker 1: space next to you at the same time. I don't know. 558 00:37:08,560 --> 00:37:13,120 Speaker 1: So we knew there was already something weird about the situation. Okay, 559 00:37:13,160 --> 00:37:18,759 Speaker 1: so now now we're getting into what happened around Christmas time, 560 00:37:19,560 --> 00:37:21,920 Speaker 1: and man, I wish I had more time. I knew 561 00:37:22,320 --> 00:37:24,360 Speaker 1: that this show was going to go by too fast. 562 00:37:25,520 --> 00:37:27,440 Speaker 1: When we come back from this break, I'm going to 563 00:37:27,480 --> 00:37:30,279 Speaker 1: tell you this story and then it's going to be 564 00:37:30,320 --> 00:37:34,480 Speaker 1: the end of the show. I'm gonna squeeze in something 565 00:37:34,520 --> 00:37:38,160 Speaker 1: about the Blue Bunny. Also, I'm Joshua Pete Warren. You're 566 00:37:38,200 --> 00:37:42,920 Speaker 1: listening to Strange Things on the iHeartRadio and Coast to 567 00:37:43,000 --> 00:37:47,920 Speaker 1: Coast am Parianormal podcast network. I will be here right back. 568 00:38:23,400 --> 00:38:26,799 Speaker 1: Welcome back to the final segment of this edition of 569 00:38:26,920 --> 00:38:30,239 Speaker 1: Strange Things on the iHeartRadio and Coast to Coast. I 570 00:38:30,280 --> 00:38:34,239 Speaker 1: am pay on Normal podcast Network, I am your host, 571 00:38:34,320 --> 00:38:39,600 Speaker 1: Joshua P. Warren, and I have so many cool, interesting, 572 00:38:39,920 --> 00:38:45,200 Speaker 1: wild shows lined up for you over the next few 573 00:38:45,440 --> 00:38:49,040 Speaker 1: weeks months. I mean, I've been You wouldn't believe the 574 00:38:49,080 --> 00:38:54,000 Speaker 1: list of things that I have to share with you. 575 00:38:54,880 --> 00:38:59,080 Speaker 1: But anyway, everything was going well for Lauren and myself 576 00:38:59,160 --> 00:39:01,239 Speaker 1: up until right around like that week leading up to 577 00:39:01,320 --> 00:39:05,360 Speaker 1: Christmas of twenty twenty two, and all of a sudden, 578 00:39:05,400 --> 00:39:08,960 Speaker 1: like both of us started having health problems. I know, 579 00:39:09,120 --> 00:39:13,879 Speaker 1: a lot of people around the world were having sicknesses, 580 00:39:14,239 --> 00:39:18,880 Speaker 1: and you know, it's like my sister was sick in Ashville, 581 00:39:19,000 --> 00:39:21,799 Speaker 1: and then we were having problems here and my poor 582 00:39:21,800 --> 00:39:24,080 Speaker 1: old mom and dad for the first time ever, had 583 00:39:24,080 --> 00:39:27,520 Speaker 1: to have Christmas with that either one of their kids present. 584 00:39:28,800 --> 00:39:31,800 Speaker 1: And then of course, you know, the weather was terrible 585 00:39:31,840 --> 00:39:37,439 Speaker 1: in many places, and people were being delayed or having 586 00:39:37,440 --> 00:39:41,919 Speaker 1: their flights canceled or stranded and literally freezing to death. 587 00:39:41,960 --> 00:39:43,800 Speaker 1: I mean, it was like it was just a hard 588 00:39:44,760 --> 00:39:49,960 Speaker 1: Christmas holiday of twenty twenty two. So anyway, but you know, 589 00:39:50,200 --> 00:39:52,840 Speaker 1: again we're fine now in terms of all that stuff, 590 00:39:52,920 --> 00:39:58,719 Speaker 1: but so here we go. It's like, I think the 591 00:39:58,800 --> 00:40:03,680 Speaker 1: day after Christmas, Lauren she was the one who got 592 00:40:03,719 --> 00:40:06,440 Speaker 1: the phone call from the storage unit place saying like, 593 00:40:06,800 --> 00:40:09,319 Speaker 1: we have a very important matter. Can you please call 594 00:40:09,400 --> 00:40:13,360 Speaker 1: us back? And it was the next day before she 595 00:40:13,480 --> 00:40:15,480 Speaker 1: was able to connect, and they said, well, there's been 596 00:40:15,520 --> 00:40:20,080 Speaker 1: a break in, and we don't think they went into 597 00:40:20,120 --> 00:40:22,600 Speaker 1: your unit, but out of an abundance of caution, we 598 00:40:22,640 --> 00:40:25,880 Speaker 1: would like for you to come here because they broke 599 00:40:25,920 --> 00:40:32,759 Speaker 1: into the units like right around yours. So Lauren and I, 600 00:40:33,080 --> 00:40:36,560 Speaker 1: this was after hours, we went over to our unit, 601 00:40:37,080 --> 00:40:39,680 Speaker 1: which was on one of the higher floors, and we thought, 602 00:40:39,719 --> 00:40:41,840 Speaker 1: how weird that of all this, of this whole place, 603 00:40:41,880 --> 00:40:46,360 Speaker 1: they broke into units that are around ours. And we 604 00:40:46,440 --> 00:40:49,600 Speaker 1: walked up to the storage unit and the door was 605 00:40:49,640 --> 00:40:52,560 Speaker 1: closed tightly and the lock was on it, and everything 606 00:40:52,600 --> 00:40:54,880 Speaker 1: looked fine. So we assumed, like, hey, everything's going to 607 00:40:54,920 --> 00:40:58,400 Speaker 1: be okay. We opened the lock, we slide up the door, 608 00:40:58,840 --> 00:41:02,760 Speaker 1: and all of our boxes in disarray, and I go, uh, oh, 609 00:41:02,800 --> 00:41:06,520 Speaker 1: this does not look good. And we walked over and 610 00:41:06,560 --> 00:41:08,400 Speaker 1: the first thing I saw was that one of my 611 00:41:08,600 --> 00:41:12,600 Speaker 1: boxes was opened and it was partially empty, and it 612 00:41:12,680 --> 00:41:18,200 Speaker 1: was labeled drone drone because that is where I kept 613 00:41:18,320 --> 00:41:23,239 Speaker 1: my one and only drone that I owned. And I'm 614 00:41:23,280 --> 00:41:28,399 Speaker 1: looking around and I couldn't find any evidence. I mean 615 00:41:28,440 --> 00:41:30,920 Speaker 1: like they shuffled stuff around, but it looked like that 616 00:41:31,040 --> 00:41:34,920 Speaker 1: nothing else has been taken. And Lauren goes, how is 617 00:41:34,960 --> 00:41:37,399 Speaker 1: it possible nobody could have gotten in here? The door 618 00:41:37,520 --> 00:41:39,319 Speaker 1: was closed, the lock was on there, and I go, 619 00:41:39,440 --> 00:41:43,200 Speaker 1: I don't know, but somebody obviously had to have got 620 00:41:43,200 --> 00:41:45,040 Speaker 1: in here, and from what I could tell, they just 621 00:41:45,080 --> 00:41:51,200 Speaker 1: stole my drone. So the next day we went back 622 00:41:51,239 --> 00:41:53,560 Speaker 1: over there, and we went with one of the employees 623 00:41:53,760 --> 00:41:56,120 Speaker 1: and I said, is it possible that somebody could have 624 00:41:56,160 --> 00:41:58,960 Speaker 1: gotten in here without opening that door? I mean, it 625 00:41:59,000 --> 00:42:03,320 Speaker 1: has to be. And it turns out in these internal 626 00:42:03,360 --> 00:42:07,000 Speaker 1: storage units there's a little opening. It's not much. It's 627 00:42:07,080 --> 00:42:10,080 Speaker 1: only probably like a foot wide at the very top 628 00:42:11,120 --> 00:42:15,520 Speaker 1: of the door. You'd have to be really slim to 629 00:42:15,520 --> 00:42:18,560 Speaker 1: get up there and slip through that. Well, we went 630 00:42:18,600 --> 00:42:21,520 Speaker 1: back into the storage unit and over on the walls 631 00:42:21,560 --> 00:42:23,799 Speaker 1: of the storage unit are these like metal rails that 632 00:42:23,840 --> 00:42:27,600 Speaker 1: you can hang things on. And those metal rails were dusty, 633 00:42:28,000 --> 00:42:30,960 Speaker 1: and we looked over and guess what, there were footprints 634 00:42:31,800 --> 00:42:36,560 Speaker 1: on the metal rails, So sure enough, somebody had gone 635 00:42:36,600 --> 00:42:40,920 Speaker 1: to the effort to not break the lock or anything, 636 00:42:41,239 --> 00:42:45,160 Speaker 1: but to climb up and go over and slip through 637 00:42:45,200 --> 00:42:47,919 Speaker 1: that little space and go down into our storage unit. 638 00:42:49,360 --> 00:42:56,800 Speaker 1: And still that drone and turned Fortunately nothing else was missing, 639 00:42:57,080 --> 00:43:00,960 Speaker 1: just in disarray. And let me tell you why that 640 00:43:01,040 --> 00:43:03,920 Speaker 1: is so weird that drone is. It's the only drone 641 00:43:03,920 --> 00:43:06,680 Speaker 1: I've ever owned. It's not a very expensive one, and 642 00:43:06,719 --> 00:43:08,799 Speaker 1: the only time I've ever used it was when I 643 00:43:08,840 --> 00:43:10,960 Speaker 1: first got it. I took it way out into the 644 00:43:11,000 --> 00:43:14,600 Speaker 1: desert on the way to California, and I just put 645 00:43:14,600 --> 00:43:16,520 Speaker 1: it up in the air and took it down just 646 00:43:16,560 --> 00:43:19,319 Speaker 1: to see if it worked. And that was it. And 647 00:43:19,920 --> 00:43:23,520 Speaker 1: this area around Las Vegas and Nevada in general is 648 00:43:23,800 --> 00:43:28,680 Speaker 1: so restrictive when it comes to drones that you hear 649 00:43:28,760 --> 00:43:32,200 Speaker 1: stories about people having their drones and stuff confiscated all 650 00:43:32,239 --> 00:43:34,840 Speaker 1: the time because people are going out there and recklessly 651 00:43:34,880 --> 00:43:39,600 Speaker 1: flying them around military bases and stuff. And I have 652 00:43:39,719 --> 00:43:43,480 Speaker 1: never done that, nor would I ever do that, but 653 00:43:44,120 --> 00:43:47,760 Speaker 1: I thought it was pretty darned interesting that the only 654 00:43:47,800 --> 00:43:54,120 Speaker 1: thing that was taken was that drone, and there was 655 00:43:54,160 --> 00:43:57,840 Speaker 1: nothing on it. Again, I took it out almost to 656 00:43:57,880 --> 00:44:01,560 Speaker 1: the California border around prem put it up in the air, 657 00:44:01,600 --> 00:44:07,560 Speaker 1: and took it down and that was it. So the 658 00:44:07,640 --> 00:44:13,640 Speaker 1: conspiratorial side of me says, is it possible that somebody, 659 00:44:13,719 --> 00:44:17,799 Speaker 1: the men in black wanted to make sure that I 660 00:44:17,920 --> 00:44:24,040 Speaker 1: wasn't using that drone for some bad purposes? Because I 661 00:44:24,239 --> 00:44:27,640 Speaker 1: did last year, as you know, buy a piece of 662 00:44:27,680 --> 00:44:31,320 Speaker 1: property not far from Area fifty one in Rachel, Nevada. 663 00:44:33,160 --> 00:44:37,640 Speaker 1: And I have never attempted to take that drone out there, 664 00:44:38,520 --> 00:44:40,680 Speaker 1: nor would I ever do that. As a matter of fact, 665 00:44:40,760 --> 00:44:42,920 Speaker 1: I've never even tried to get close to the Area 666 00:44:43,040 --> 00:44:45,879 Speaker 1: fifty one boundary because I know that's a real top 667 00:44:45,920 --> 00:44:49,520 Speaker 1: secret military base that I just thought it was really 668 00:44:49,560 --> 00:44:53,279 Speaker 1: interesting that of all the things that were taken, it 669 00:44:53,320 --> 00:44:58,360 Speaker 1: was my drone. So that put a really sour damper 670 00:44:58,480 --> 00:45:02,239 Speaker 1: on things. But you know what, here's the good part 671 00:45:02,239 --> 00:45:05,160 Speaker 1: of that. I wrote about this in my book used 672 00:45:05,160 --> 00:45:08,600 Speaker 1: the Force. Sometimes when something happens, it seems bad, and 673 00:45:08,760 --> 00:45:13,160 Speaker 1: retrospect you look back it was actually good. Things can't change, 674 00:45:13,280 --> 00:45:18,239 Speaker 1: things can't improve unless something destructive happens. And that was 675 00:45:18,280 --> 00:45:20,600 Speaker 1: an opportunity for me to say you know what, let 676 00:45:20,640 --> 00:45:23,160 Speaker 1: me take the stuff out of this storage unit that 677 00:45:23,239 --> 00:45:26,919 Speaker 1: I really care about, and it was all there. I'm 678 00:45:27,000 --> 00:45:29,400 Speaker 1: proud to say, I'm happy to say all my cool 679 00:45:29,440 --> 00:45:33,960 Speaker 1: stuff was there, and I got it out. And I'm 680 00:45:33,960 --> 00:45:36,319 Speaker 1: not going to tell you where I put it, but 681 00:45:36,440 --> 00:45:38,400 Speaker 1: I got out all my cool stuff and it's in 682 00:45:38,400 --> 00:45:41,360 Speaker 1: a much more secure area now, so it's better protected. 683 00:45:44,000 --> 00:45:48,720 Speaker 1: So no matter who you are, you know you're gonna 684 00:45:48,719 --> 00:45:51,960 Speaker 1: have bad luck and weird bad things that happened to you. 685 00:45:52,000 --> 00:45:54,560 Speaker 1: I wrote about my book Used the Force, which you 686 00:45:54,600 --> 00:45:57,319 Speaker 1: can actually read for free right now if you go 687 00:45:57,360 --> 00:45:59,800 Speaker 1: to Joshua P. Warren dot com and just click the 688 00:45:59,840 --> 00:46:02,680 Speaker 1: link to the book cover. I wrote about the fact 689 00:46:02,760 --> 00:46:10,640 Speaker 1: that you know, when you align yourself with goodness, you're 690 00:46:10,640 --> 00:46:15,160 Speaker 1: actually polarizing yourself, and in doing that, you're becoming a 691 00:46:15,280 --> 00:46:19,120 Speaker 1: target for bad stuff as well. So you have to 692 00:46:19,200 --> 00:46:24,320 Speaker 1: expect some bad things to happen in your life because 693 00:46:24,360 --> 00:46:27,480 Speaker 1: you're becoming like the north or the south pole of 694 00:46:27,480 --> 00:46:31,200 Speaker 1: a magnet and you're attracting the other pole. And so 695 00:46:32,080 --> 00:46:35,480 Speaker 1: this actually is an inspirational story because I feel like 696 00:46:35,600 --> 00:46:40,560 Speaker 1: that this happening to me gave me an opportunity to 697 00:46:40,680 --> 00:46:44,360 Speaker 1: go in and become more responsible with what I'm putting 698 00:46:44,360 --> 00:46:47,359 Speaker 1: into storage units, and to give a warning to all 699 00:46:47,440 --> 00:46:50,319 Speaker 1: of you who may have a storage unit about how 700 00:46:50,440 --> 00:46:53,120 Speaker 1: vulnerable your stuff may be. That somebody can break in 701 00:46:53,160 --> 00:46:56,000 Speaker 1: without even going through the door. And it gave me 702 00:46:56,040 --> 00:46:58,399 Speaker 1: an opportunity to take out the stuff that I really 703 00:46:58,440 --> 00:47:01,120 Speaker 1: cared about and put it in a more secure location. 704 00:47:02,239 --> 00:47:07,719 Speaker 1: And so that's why I say, look it was it 705 00:47:07,800 --> 00:47:15,200 Speaker 1: was bad, but it actually turned out to be inspirational. 706 00:47:18,680 --> 00:47:21,959 Speaker 2: Well, if you like this episode of Strange Things, wait 707 00:47:22,040 --> 00:47:24,880 Speaker 2: till you hear the next one.
