WEBVTT - Thinking Sideways: Fairies 0:00:04.320 --> 0:00:17.000 Thinking Sideways. I don't know stories of things we simply 0:00:17.040 --> 0:00:22.279 don't know the answer too. Well, Hi there, thanks for 0:00:22.360 --> 0:00:25.520 joining us. This is Thinking Sideways and I'm Steve as 0:00:25.560 --> 0:00:30.160 always enjoying my my co host, and this week we're 0:00:30.200 --> 0:00:33.080 going to talk about something a little different, which, by 0:00:33.120 --> 0:00:36.519 the way, seems to now be my m O. That's 0:00:36.560 --> 0:00:40.040 something you're talking about the weird crap. I'm pulling out 0:00:40.120 --> 0:00:42.959 some kind of strange things and I don't know why 0:00:43.000 --> 0:00:46.159 I've been on that, but I think you're tired of 0:00:46.159 --> 0:00:50.120 talking about murders. But this isn't uns which we are 0:00:50.200 --> 0:00:53.640 going to solve. Well, yeah, we're going to definitively solve 0:00:53.760 --> 0:00:57.279 this one. As Joe would say, well, what should open 0:00:57.320 --> 0:01:01.680 like a walnut? What mysteries that say? We're going to 0:01:01.840 --> 0:01:07.240 solve fairies? Though? Really, this no, no, this is this 0:01:07.280 --> 0:01:09.360 is not an April Fool's joke, because well April was 0:01:09.360 --> 0:01:11.840 a couple of months ago and you realized that the 0:01:11.920 --> 0:01:14.400 fairies do exist and they hear this podcast. I am 0:01:14.440 --> 0:01:16.640 on the list. We're gonna wake up with horses heads 0:01:16.640 --> 0:01:23.120 in our beds like that, a little tiny unicorn heads 0:01:23.160 --> 0:01:26.560 like the unicorn may be kind of ironic as they 0:01:26.600 --> 0:01:29.920 said that said that that's threatening signal to us, and 0:01:29.959 --> 0:01:31.520 we woke up in the morning sort of just brushed 0:01:31.520 --> 0:01:38.400 off on the floor. Oh we're gonna die with tiny death. 0:01:39.160 --> 0:01:42.399 Al Right, well, let's let's get into the story. The 0:01:42.480 --> 0:01:44.959 story is. And I don't know if either of you 0:01:45.040 --> 0:01:48.760 saw wouldn't happen, or any of our listeners, But in April, 0:01:49.120 --> 0:01:53.680 a series of photos started going around that we're claiming 0:01:53.760 --> 0:01:59.480 to have captured images of fairies on film. Yeah. Yeah, 0:01:59.720 --> 0:02:01.440 it was a set of photographs. It was taken by 0:02:01.480 --> 0:02:05.800 a guy named John Hyatt something. It is a professor 0:02:05.880 --> 0:02:09.760 that is correct like that, you know, I knew it 0:02:09.919 --> 0:02:11.600 And as soon as you asked me, I can't remember 0:02:11.600 --> 0:02:15.240 what he's a professor of, but he's uh, he was 0:02:15.360 --> 0:02:19.880 at the Rossendale Valley which is in Lancashire, which is 0:02:19.880 --> 0:02:25.000 in England. And I did I say that la Lancashure, 0:02:25.080 --> 0:02:27.000 Thank you. I knew I said it wrong as soon 0:02:27.040 --> 0:02:32.000 as I did it. I know according to Mr Hyatt, 0:02:32.320 --> 0:02:36.720 the photographs, he didn't fake them, he didn't photoshop him. 0:02:36.760 --> 0:02:41.000 They're completely real and it's it's funny. But as I 0:02:41.040 --> 0:02:44.040 as I looked at these images, it kind of made 0:02:44.040 --> 0:02:46.880 me think back to all of the stories that I 0:02:46.880 --> 0:02:50.880 think we've all heard when we were kids about fairies, 0:02:50.960 --> 0:02:53.160 and I thought, well, let's take a look at the 0:02:53.200 --> 0:02:55.760 images and at the same time, let's kind of look 0:02:55.800 --> 0:02:59.720 into fairies and see what the deal is, because they're 0:02:59.760 --> 0:03:03.359 they're a little weird, because they're these itsy bitsy things 0:03:03.400 --> 0:03:07.600 that fly around and do good deeds with wands. It's 0:03:07.639 --> 0:03:10.240 kind of strange. And they're come in all sizes. Apparently 0:03:10.240 --> 0:03:12.880 they're up to a foot tall the size of gnats 0:03:12.960 --> 0:03:16.760 like in this picture. That is very true. They're not 0:03:16.800 --> 0:03:22.280 all good either. No, no, I'm afraid they're not. Uh So, here, 0:03:22.360 --> 0:03:25.000 let me just give a brief description of the photos 0:03:25.040 --> 0:03:26.560 that we're talking about, because that will kind of give 0:03:26.600 --> 0:03:29.160 everybody a little context pictures of course, on the website. 0:03:29.240 --> 0:03:32.680 On the website, yes, and these are Hyatt's photos, and 0:03:33.120 --> 0:03:38.080 they show about a dozen or so little quote unquote creatures, 0:03:38.280 --> 0:03:45.760 winged creatures flying about. They seem to have two little 0:03:45.840 --> 0:03:49.080 human arms, two little human legs, and a little human 0:03:49.240 --> 0:03:54.240 ish head and some insect wings and they are it's 0:03:54.400 --> 0:03:58.680 the light is kind of shining towards the camera, so 0:03:58.760 --> 0:04:03.000 they're a little, very little bit their backwards started and 0:04:03.040 --> 0:04:07.000 their emotions, so they're little blurry. Yeah, so it is. 0:04:07.160 --> 0:04:10.800 It's it's kind of hard to tell exactly what you're 0:04:10.840 --> 0:04:13.160 looking at. The city is like buy out, by the way, 0:04:13.240 --> 0:04:17.159 just so or so answropomorphizing fairies because they exist. They 0:04:17.160 --> 0:04:22.400 could just as easily look like jellyfish, jellyfish butterfly wings. 0:04:23.520 --> 0:04:26.680 We've missed, they've been misunderstood for just this kind of 0:04:26.680 --> 0:04:29.479 gross flying creatures. It's a buzz along and that's sting you. 0:04:29.720 --> 0:04:33.919 Maybe you know mosquitoes are fairies really well, you know 0:04:34.200 --> 0:04:36.800 they are jerks, So at least in my opinion, that 0:04:36.880 --> 0:04:40.120 the mosquitoes are and they're just trying to be friends 0:04:40.120 --> 0:04:42.640 with you? Is that what it is? By sucking the 0:04:42.680 --> 0:04:47.039 blood out of me and maybe occasionally leave a parasite behind, jerks, 0:04:47.680 --> 0:04:52.880 a little little flying jerks. Well that description, I mean, 0:04:52.920 --> 0:04:55.320 there's a number of photos, but that's kind of a 0:04:55.360 --> 0:04:58.599 good basic description of the photos. And that's all we know, 0:04:58.920 --> 0:05:01.800 that's all we see of. But the internet is on 0:05:01.880 --> 0:05:07.279 fire over there. The Internet is twitter about these fairies. 0:05:08.360 --> 0:05:11.960 So before we get too much into the photos, let's 0:05:12.040 --> 0:05:14.840 let's kind of break down the fairies a little bit 0:05:14.880 --> 0:05:17.440 and some theories about what fairies are and where they 0:05:17.480 --> 0:05:20.520 come from. Let's break down fairies. Let's break down fairies 0:05:21.160 --> 0:05:25.520 underneath our shoe. Um, there's there, there's Basically this is easy. 0:05:25.600 --> 0:05:29.480 There's two theories. They're real or they're not makes sense, 0:05:29.560 --> 0:05:33.840 that's really really easy, straightforward. It could be that fairies 0:05:33.839 --> 0:05:37.440 are real but just not on this planet, or they 0:05:37.480 --> 0:05:42.039 don't have magical powers. And Joe, Joe, You're you're getting weird, 0:05:42.400 --> 0:05:44.960 and there's a thousand little series. I'm I'm I'm putting 0:05:44.960 --> 0:05:46.520 these under this? Can we just go with the big 0:05:46.520 --> 0:05:50.200 headings of real or not real? And then that's followed 0:05:50.240 --> 0:05:53.239 by well, if they're real, what the heck are they? 0:05:53.480 --> 0:05:56.839 Where are those little boggers? Really? Maybe bugs? But oh no, 0:05:56.920 --> 0:06:01.000 I'm sorry, I'm getting ahead of myself. So, as I 0:06:01.040 --> 0:06:04.520 was doing the research, evidently there's a lot of information 0:06:04.560 --> 0:06:08.360 on the Internet about how to find fairies, which I 0:06:08.400 --> 0:06:11.240 didn't realize there was so much out there for this 0:06:11.560 --> 0:06:20.120 particular mythical creature. Google Maps obviously, yelp, Google maps. Is 0:06:20.160 --> 0:06:22.840 this one of their new side projects? Probably? Just going 0:06:22.839 --> 0:06:27.200 there and type in pack of fairies comes up, all right, Well, 0:06:27.240 --> 0:06:31.040 what I've read says first off to find fairies, you 0:06:31.120 --> 0:06:34.520 have to actually believe in them. So if you don't 0:06:34.520 --> 0:06:37.400 believe in them, you're you're out of luck, which might 0:06:37.440 --> 0:06:40.360 explain why I've never seen a fairy before, because they 0:06:40.400 --> 0:06:44.800 won't show themselves to nonbelievers. I know, it's not right 0:06:45.000 --> 0:06:50.320 and like non inclusive on their parts. Yeah, really really 0:06:50.320 --> 0:06:53.880 single minded. But no, and then only if you're at 0:06:53.880 --> 0:06:58.400 the right place at the right time will they show themselves. 0:06:58.920 --> 0:07:02.760 And there's there's very specific places that you have to 0:07:02.880 --> 0:07:07.040 be in order to see the fairies, Okay, like like where, well, 0:07:07.080 --> 0:07:10.560 there's a ring of toadstools. This, this is gonna be 0:07:10.560 --> 0:07:13.120 a lot of rings, by the way, A ring of toadstools, 0:07:13.360 --> 0:07:17.000 a ring of trees, a ring of dark grass. You know, 0:07:17.160 --> 0:07:20.000 sometimes in your lawn you'll see that weird darker ring 0:07:20.400 --> 0:07:22.760 and then the grass will grow taller. And I think 0:07:22.840 --> 0:07:25.880 Joe once commented that that's always where you find how 0:07:25.920 --> 0:07:30.360 did you put that a little depositive, Yeah, which I 0:07:30.400 --> 0:07:33.080 don't I don't know it's from the fairies necessarily, probably not, 0:07:33.160 --> 0:07:35.240 maybe you know, maybe they do, you know, maybe they 0:07:35.320 --> 0:07:46.480 just like their sewage system. Yeah, anyway, a ring of stones, uh, 0:07:46.520 --> 0:07:49.520 And and one of the things about the rings, is 0:07:50.240 --> 0:07:52.880 what I was doing all this reading. Is people really 0:07:53.000 --> 0:07:56.480 warn you not to go into the rings. Yeah, it's 0:07:56.560 --> 0:07:59.120 kind of like the light evidently, and Poulter, guys don't 0:07:59.120 --> 0:08:01.400 go into the light because you go into the light, 0:08:01.800 --> 0:08:05.440 I mean in the ring, and the fairies meet you, 0:08:06.120 --> 0:08:08.880 and you dance with the fairies and I guess they 0:08:08.920 --> 0:08:12.080 take your mind to fairyland and then your body will 0:08:12.120 --> 0:08:15.600 just stay there and rotten, die cool. I don't know. 0:08:15.680 --> 0:08:18.320 I guess if you're off in fairyland, then what the hell? Yeah, 0:08:18.360 --> 0:08:20.600 it's it's kind of it really makes me think of 0:08:21.040 --> 0:08:25.680 Grim's Tails kind of fairy tale, you know, creatures and 0:08:25.720 --> 0:08:27.520 all by the way, those lovely creatures kill you and 0:08:27.560 --> 0:08:30.040 they neat you. Yeah, back of the days when fairy 0:08:30.040 --> 0:08:33.319 tales were a lot more edgy and yeah yeah really 0:08:33.320 --> 0:08:36.480 really just but yeah so but but anyway, you're safe 0:08:36.520 --> 0:08:38.640 to go into these rings if you don't believe in fairies, 0:08:38.640 --> 0:08:42.400 because they won't show themselves to them. Over with your hownmower, Yeah, 0:08:43.080 --> 0:08:47.040 hard to mow over rocks. Oh yeah, there's the rocks. Yeah, 0:08:47.080 --> 0:08:49.679 but there are apparently other places to find fairies. There are, 0:08:49.880 --> 0:08:51.640 so you know, when I was a kid, it was 0:08:52.080 --> 0:08:54.840 fairy houses, which are like big trees in the forest 0:08:54.880 --> 0:08:57.920 with like really big roots kind of like more decrepit ones. Oh, 0:08:58.000 --> 0:09:00.520 you mean like like the big exposed roots of sums 0:09:00.600 --> 0:09:02.600 kind of on a knob or a knoll or something. 0:09:02.679 --> 0:09:06.120 For the ones that had fallen over or been cut 0:09:06.160 --> 0:09:08.719 over and the like stumps were still there and they 0:09:08.720 --> 0:09:11.080 were like really degraded with like lots of little holes 0:09:11.120 --> 0:09:14.199 that looked like doorways. That's the place to find fairies, right, 0:09:14.400 --> 0:09:17.040 that is that's totally one of the places. Yeah, it's 0:09:17.080 --> 0:09:19.600 it's in old trees with big roots or these these 0:09:19.720 --> 0:09:23.600 mounds or knobs, and it's great. They even say, oh 0:09:23.720 --> 0:09:26.439 and if there's toadstools around it, you definitely know you 0:09:26.559 --> 0:09:30.440 found a fairy compound. So Portland, Oregon, Yeah, because we 0:09:30.480 --> 0:09:36.920 have mushrooms all over. The best answer ever that I 0:09:36.960 --> 0:09:39.560 found when I was looking for how to find fairies 0:09:40.440 --> 0:09:44.719 the astral plane. That makes sense because it's totally that's right. 0:09:44.760 --> 0:09:47.719 They live on another plane of existence, which is why 0:09:47.760 --> 0:09:51.120 they're so hard to find because we don't live there. 0:09:52.000 --> 0:09:56.360 Evidently it's because they live there and we live here 0:09:56.400 --> 0:09:58.839 and they can cross over and so they can show 0:09:58.880 --> 0:10:04.120 themselves when they wants. I didn't quite get what the 0:10:04.160 --> 0:10:07.360 astral how the astral plane works. Well, nobody says how 0:10:07.400 --> 0:10:10.360 it works well because you clearly are just a simpleton 0:10:10.440 --> 0:10:14.040 who doesn't understand the ways of higher thinking on the 0:10:14.080 --> 0:10:17.880 astral planes. Well about for you that that could be 0:10:18.600 --> 0:10:22.440 accept that. When I did some of the reading, it 0:10:22.559 --> 0:10:24.199 was saying that it might not be a bad thing 0:10:24.200 --> 0:10:27.160 that they live on the astral plane, because not all 0:10:27.200 --> 0:10:30.760 fairies are really nice. Yeah. As a matter of fact, 0:10:31.200 --> 0:10:34.680 fairy supposedly steal children. Yeah, that makes sense, It's totally believable. 0:10:34.679 --> 0:10:35.960 Have you ever done a kid that was stolen by 0:10:35.960 --> 0:10:40.840 a ferry? Well, well yeah, that's because they're changeling. You 0:10:40.880 --> 0:10:43.920 never know get replaced. What are the placing what somebody 0:10:43.960 --> 0:10:47.560 else's kid? Or this is this is where I kind 0:10:47.559 --> 0:10:50.400 of call hinky. I would say this, this theory is hinky. 0:10:50.559 --> 0:10:53.240 This is where Okay, yeah, all the other stuff we 0:10:53.280 --> 0:10:55.560 said for the last ten minutes, that's totally normal, but 0:10:55.600 --> 0:10:58.760 this is hinky. Uh. There's there's a lot of legends 0:10:58.800 --> 0:11:03.440 saying that fairy steel old children. And what it is 0:11:03.440 --> 0:11:08.319 is that evidently they come into a humans home and 0:11:08.360 --> 0:11:13.640 they steal the child and they replace the baby with 0:11:14.080 --> 0:11:17.559 another fairy, like a changeling fairy. Yeah, who they might 0:11:17.600 --> 0:11:19.640 be a sick fairy who need somebody to take care 0:11:19.640 --> 0:11:21.880 of it, or just you know, I just want to 0:11:21.880 --> 0:11:23.319 take a couple of weeks off the job, so I'm 0:11:23.320 --> 0:11:26.720 just gonna stay here. So does that mean fairies look 0:11:26.760 --> 0:11:29.360 like babies or they can just sort of their shape 0:11:29.400 --> 0:11:32.600 shifters shape shifters, And it never says what they do 0:11:32.679 --> 0:11:35.000 with the baby. And they saw that, yeah, they probably 0:11:35.000 --> 0:11:38.160 just feed him to the pigs or something. But now 0:11:38.200 --> 0:11:40.200 you saw that, you saw that photograph that the good 0:11:40.200 --> 0:11:43.120 professor took, and look, the fairies look like they're about 0:11:43.160 --> 0:11:45.440 the size of gnats. So do you know how many 0:11:45.480 --> 0:11:47.559 thousands of fairies it would take to lift that baby 0:11:47.600 --> 0:11:50.040 out of his crib and cart him off? That's where 0:11:50.080 --> 0:11:52.680 magic I mean. Okay, so here's just a very easy 0:11:52.720 --> 0:11:57.480 accessible example. Is Peter Pan's kind of a fairy, but 0:11:57.559 --> 0:12:00.400 not really, but tinker Ball was a fairy. And the 0:12:00.440 --> 0:12:02.960 whole lore behind Pure Pan, right, is that tinker Bell 0:12:03.000 --> 0:12:05.760 came and found him as an abandoned child and shipped 0:12:05.800 --> 0:12:09.000 him off to Neverland with her, and he stopped growing up, 0:12:09.200 --> 0:12:11.280 just like the Lost Boys, stopped growing up because they 0:12:11.320 --> 0:12:14.679 always come and take them. Right, So you just add 0:12:14.720 --> 0:12:16.600 a little fairy dust and you make that baby think 0:12:16.600 --> 0:12:19.080 happy thoughts, and they're gonna fly away fairy dust. Why 0:12:19.080 --> 0:12:21.320 didn't I think of that? I don't know, Well, I think, 0:12:21.679 --> 0:12:25.080 let's let's they're different. Yeah, and and you know what 0:12:25.200 --> 0:12:28.160 ties directly into that, Joe, when you're talking about you 0:12:28.200 --> 0:12:31.319 know they're too small to do anything. Is the next 0:12:31.400 --> 0:12:33.840 thing that I looked into is what a fairies look like. 0:12:34.520 --> 0:12:37.480 All right, well, we've we've all we all see when 0:12:37.480 --> 0:12:41.719 you look around art of fairies, they're all very diminutive, 0:12:41.960 --> 0:12:49.480 diminutive with a little gossamer dragonfly wings and bitsy girls, 0:12:49.480 --> 0:12:54.479 really beautiful long hair and weird colors. Yeah, that's exactly right. Well, 0:12:54.520 --> 0:12:59.040 the thing is, fairies really weren't shown to have wings 0:12:59.200 --> 0:13:01.800 in any kind of illustration or stories until about the 0:13:01.880 --> 0:13:04.800 last hundred years. Prior to that, going back to the 0:13:04.840 --> 0:13:08.839 Peter Pan thing, they just flew around on their own. 0:13:09.280 --> 0:13:15.320 They could just do it about years ago by whom, 0:13:15.840 --> 0:13:19.120 you know, I couldn't find out who first started showing 0:13:19.320 --> 0:13:22.800 fairies with wings and why that took off. It's got 0:13:22.800 --> 0:13:26.120 to be some turn of the century illustrator who did 0:13:26.160 --> 0:13:28.679 it in the printed book? You know everybody. He had 0:13:28.720 --> 0:13:31.080 more and more access to books, and so it took off. 0:13:31.120 --> 0:13:35.600 But I couldn't ever pin down who started that. But 0:13:36.000 --> 0:13:38.400 you know, maybe maybe it has to do with the 0:13:38.400 --> 0:13:42.960 invention of the airplane. Think, oh, you know when was 0:13:42.960 --> 0:13:46.559 the airplane invented? Early twentieth century? Okay, well, I guess 0:13:46.559 --> 0:13:48.280 that could kind of be right in the right time frame, 0:13:48.320 --> 0:13:50.880 that would make sense. But you know, the other thing 0:13:50.920 --> 0:13:54.840 is if we think about that typical faery drawing, uh, 0:13:54.880 --> 0:13:57.079 it always says that, like I said before, they're a 0:13:57.080 --> 0:14:00.480 little diminutive things. So tinker mount, we'll say, tinker itty 0:14:00.520 --> 0:14:06.000 bitsy little little flying person. Yeah, this is again according 0:14:06.040 --> 0:14:11.880 to historical legends or lore, the fairy people are of 0:14:11.920 --> 0:14:16.200 the lot that is called the little people. So they're 0:14:16.240 --> 0:14:20.200 actually not an inch or too high. They were more 0:14:20.240 --> 0:14:25.160 between one to three feet tall, which could explain how 0:14:25.200 --> 0:14:28.040 they could easily steal a baby. It's it's like, do 0:14:28.040 --> 0:14:32.080 you remember the movie Labyrinth, and and there was the baby, 0:14:32.240 --> 0:14:38.160 the baby the baby power? Yes, do what find me 0:14:38.200 --> 0:14:41.520 of the babe? That one? Okay, well, if you remember 0:14:41.600 --> 0:14:43.760 all of the little creatures that were in the movie, 0:14:43.800 --> 0:14:46.240 and they were you know, little Jim. Yeah, they were 0:14:46.240 --> 0:14:48.400 all kind of ugly looking, but they were, you know, 0:14:48.440 --> 0:14:50.520 a little bit bigger than the baby, maybe a lot 0:14:50.600 --> 0:14:52.480 bigger than the baby, but they were in that range 0:14:53.280 --> 0:14:56.040 according to legend and Lord, that's more of what the 0:14:56.080 --> 0:15:00.440 little people were like, nasty little they're they're on the 0:15:00.560 --> 0:15:03.960 order of elves and goblins and all of those. And 0:15:04.000 --> 0:15:10.040 there's a name for those. It's the elementaries. Yeah, they're 0:15:10.080 --> 0:15:13.080 not elementals, but they are like they are of the 0:15:13.120 --> 0:15:17.880 cast of elementaries. Yeah, elementaries are like what spirits leftover 0:15:17.920 --> 0:15:22.600 from the ancient world. No, elementaries are more of critters 0:15:22.600 --> 0:15:26.560 that do things on earth. So fairies are kind of 0:15:26.720 --> 0:15:30.880 for the earth, and then lepri cons had something different. 0:15:30.920 --> 0:15:34.760 Elves did something for the forests. And there's like nine 0:15:34.840 --> 0:15:38.720 or twelve casts of elementaries and they're mostly kind of 0:15:38.800 --> 0:15:41.880 little are Yeah, they're all the little people. They're all 0:15:41.920 --> 0:15:45.520 these little, diminutive critters that look like people but heightened 0:15:45.760 --> 0:15:48.360 in nature, and so we don't see them unless they 0:15:48.800 --> 0:15:51.800 good or bad reason decided to show themselves to That's why. 0:15:51.880 --> 0:15:53.600 You know, when you go camping, sometimes you get up 0:15:53.600 --> 0:15:56.960 in the warning and your food has been rated yeah, 0:15:57.120 --> 0:15:59.400 those things, because you know, I thought that was raccoons 0:15:59.600 --> 0:16:04.000 or ball They always say it's rac raccoons might be 0:16:04.160 --> 0:16:08.920 elementary elementaries, yea, elementaries. Yeah, yeah, good, all we know 0:16:09.080 --> 0:16:13.240 they're a little human like, uh yeah, well, and I 0:16:13.360 --> 0:16:14.880 think you know, we just hit on the other thing, 0:16:14.960 --> 0:16:18.640 which is again we were talking about in that typical illustration, 0:16:18.760 --> 0:16:22.360 the fairies are beautiful and you know, have perfect skin 0:16:22.640 --> 0:16:25.560 and glowing but really, according to this, they're kind of 0:16:25.960 --> 0:16:30.800 ugly critters and sour pus. The sour pus face is 0:16:30.840 --> 0:16:33.440 what I always think of when I think of of 0:16:33.560 --> 0:16:36.960 the ones from labor At where they're headed. You know, 0:16:37.080 --> 0:16:39.640 it's it's like the evolution of so many things towards 0:16:39.680 --> 0:16:42.960 these Like if you look at angels in the Old Testament, 0:16:43.320 --> 0:16:48.160 they were scary creatures. Now angels are so yeah, and 0:16:48.240 --> 0:16:51.560 now they're wonderful creatures who just want to spread love 0:16:51.640 --> 0:16:53.920 and ferry us throughout the world. Yeah, like the you 0:16:54.000 --> 0:16:57.160 know cherubs versus wait wait hunt, wait wait you lost 0:16:58.000 --> 0:16:59.880 I know what a cherub is, right, but they didn't 0:17:00.000 --> 0:17:02.840 really exist until the kind of the Middle Ages. The 0:17:02.880 --> 0:17:06.400 idea of a cherub, okay, and the like really cute 0:17:06.440 --> 0:17:10.960 baby with wings at like the angel cherub archetype r. 0:17:11.359 --> 0:17:14.800 Was that somebody? That's just some medieval artists who first 0:17:14.840 --> 0:17:22.240 invented the whole thing? Probably propaganda. Yeah, the next kind 0:17:22.280 --> 0:17:24.199 of vein that I came across when I was doing 0:17:24.440 --> 0:17:29.680 the research on fairies. Yeah, it turns out the fairies 0:17:30.000 --> 0:17:34.560 really love the British. The British love the fairies. Stuff 0:17:35.240 --> 0:17:37.680 in England there is and the food is not very 0:17:37.720 --> 0:17:43.200 good and older. You know, they've got a lot of 0:17:43.240 --> 0:17:47.040 abandon areas, a lot of history for a really long time. Yeah, 0:17:47.680 --> 0:17:49.399 there's a lot of places that you know, like like 0:17:49.520 --> 0:17:51.160 say the Middle East, if you were a fairy, would 0:17:51.160 --> 0:17:53.160 you gotta want to go take out residents and say 0:17:53.560 --> 0:18:00.320 Saudi Arabia forests of England where it's like any all 0:18:00.359 --> 0:18:02.920 the time and nobody's gonna like tromp over you because 0:18:03.280 --> 0:18:06.760 who goes outside there? Yeah, yeah, it's wet outside. Why 0:18:06.800 --> 0:18:08.480 would I go outside? I just to stay in the 0:18:08.520 --> 0:18:10.720 house all day. I'm actually kind of suspised. We don't 0:18:10.880 --> 0:18:13.439 we don't see them around here because we're fairly moisten 0:18:13.560 --> 0:18:16.359 foresty around here. Well it's because you don't believe Joe. Oh, 0:18:16.440 --> 0:18:21.960 well there's that, but nobody you don't know, Yeah, yeah, 0:18:22.040 --> 0:18:24.040 they could be all around. Yeah. Usually when I see 0:18:24.119 --> 0:18:26.359 like rings of rings of mushrooms in the forest, I 0:18:26.440 --> 0:18:29.159 picked them right, Yeah, because that's what most people do. 0:18:29.400 --> 0:18:31.560 That's why it's because we do things like that here, 0:18:31.680 --> 0:18:34.040 so the fairies are like, oh, we can't be here anymore. 0:18:34.160 --> 0:18:37.720 I can discover the next environmental causes. We're destroying fairy habitat. 0:18:42.440 --> 0:18:44.399 If that was gonna fly anywhere, it would fly in 0:18:44.480 --> 0:18:48.480 Portland's Yeah, you're absolutely right. I think we're gonna have 0:18:48.520 --> 0:18:51.400 to work on a website and start getting sim publicity. Yeah. 0:18:51.680 --> 0:18:54.200 I don't know that we want that publicity, but no. 0:18:54.600 --> 0:18:58.440 So evidently the British Isles are overrun with fairies. And 0:18:58.520 --> 0:19:02.560 by that I mean written in Ireland and Scotland, all 0:19:02.640 --> 0:19:10.280 of that area, the entire United Kingdom area, not Ireland. 0:19:10.400 --> 0:19:16.119 I'm talking about Ireland also, yes, I'm looping that entire 0:19:16.320 --> 0:19:21.600 area outlying islands also, all of it because according to 0:19:22.160 --> 0:19:25.760 some reports, and these were I believe the report of 0:19:25.800 --> 0:19:28.680 the BBC did this, and good on them for taking 0:19:28.680 --> 0:19:33.080 the time to look into this, but evidently that area 0:19:33.480 --> 0:19:38.960 is covered in what they refer to as good paranormal areas, 0:19:39.520 --> 0:19:41.560 which are run by fairies and ghosts, and I guess 0:19:41.600 --> 0:19:45.480 a good paranormal area is where there's a helpful creature 0:19:46.080 --> 0:19:47.639 that you can't see some one of the one of 0:19:47.680 --> 0:19:50.800 the stories that I read was there was some house 0:19:51.560 --> 0:19:53.920 and there was some road that was really confusing, and 0:19:54.000 --> 0:19:56.679 people would always get lost and they would stop at 0:19:56.720 --> 0:19:58.480 this house and they would knock on the door and 0:19:58.560 --> 0:20:01.320 a friendly old butler would answer the door and they say, Hi, 0:20:01.480 --> 0:20:04.720 I'm lost. I'm trying to get to wherever, and he 0:20:04.760 --> 0:20:07.560 would say, no problem, take this and that and this 0:20:07.760 --> 0:20:10.800 and that and be on your way, and they would go. Well, 0:20:11.200 --> 0:20:13.760 the house was deserted, nobody lived in the house, So 0:20:13.880 --> 0:20:16.320 that was a good paranormal area because it was the 0:20:16.520 --> 0:20:20.080 good entities that were being the butler for these people 0:20:20.200 --> 0:20:23.200 to find their way. Don't Devin's giving me a really 0:20:23.280 --> 0:20:25.840 kind of dirty look. I don't think she believes this story. 0:20:26.600 --> 0:20:31.000 I don't. Yeah. Sorry. I believe in fairies and I 0:20:31.040 --> 0:20:33.440 believe in ghosts, but that story, for some reason, I 0:20:33.600 --> 0:20:36.000 just don't believe. I have heard stories like that too. 0:20:36.320 --> 0:20:40.359 Oh yeah, we all know. So the reporter did the 0:20:40.400 --> 0:20:44.200 research here though, They went through twenty five years of 0:20:44.480 --> 0:20:47.920 police reports, so these were things that were filed with 0:20:48.000 --> 0:20:51.960 the police. Yeah, these are all supernatural. Uh, there's a 0:20:52.040 --> 0:20:54.880 huge number of supernatural events. And by huge I mean 0:20:55.119 --> 0:20:59.920 seven hundred and fifty five reports to the police. I'll 0:21:00.000 --> 0:21:03.840 only forty four of which were related to fairies. I 0:21:03.920 --> 0:21:06.080 mean the rest we're all ghosts and which is and 0:21:06.760 --> 0:21:09.560 Casper somebody I don't know, but forty four of them 0:21:09.600 --> 0:21:13.879 were fairies. So obviously they like that area that or 0:21:14.640 --> 0:21:20.080 people in that area are prone to reporting quote paranormal activities. So, 0:21:20.200 --> 0:21:22.399 ladies and gentlemen, this is what happens when you wander 0:21:22.480 --> 0:21:26.680 the forest and you start randomly eating mushrooms, you start 0:21:26.760 --> 0:21:32.960 reporting stuff. I mean like everybody, you know, like everybody 0:21:33.960 --> 0:21:35.720 at some point in their life has something happened to 0:21:35.800 --> 0:21:39.159 them and they're like, WHOA, that was super weird. Right, 0:21:40.480 --> 0:21:42.879 Not very many people have that WHOA, that was super 0:21:42.920 --> 0:21:45.560 weird moment and then go, I better call the police 0:21:45.600 --> 0:21:50.200 and follow report. Yeah, maybe it's just that this area, 0:21:50.960 --> 0:21:52.840 you know, But I think the thing is maybe is 0:21:52.920 --> 0:21:57.640 that here we're much more prone to getting in trouble 0:21:57.720 --> 0:22:01.920 for calling the cops. What are considered a name report 0:22:02.400 --> 0:22:05.560 probably wouldn't even file. They'd be like Okay, ma'am, okay, 0:22:07.119 --> 0:22:12.480 there a Bobby is like, okay, all report says saw 0:22:12.800 --> 0:22:16.240 fairy that gave him a beer. I think that. I 0:22:16.359 --> 0:22:18.520 think actually, if you called nine one one report the 0:22:18.560 --> 0:22:25.200 fair they send a swat team and maybe, well, let's 0:22:25.240 --> 0:22:27.960 go on to this. This gets more into the what 0:22:28.280 --> 0:22:31.960 are fairies? This next bit that I've come across, which 0:22:32.800 --> 0:22:37.879 is freaking awesome, they're aliens. I think that's freaking awesome, amazing. 0:22:38.880 --> 0:22:42.399 I know, go ahead and say it. I know what 0:22:42.560 --> 0:22:45.960 is the people who look into aliens? Who followed yep, 0:22:46.040 --> 0:22:47.560 I knew, I knew you'd want to talk about you. 0:22:48.359 --> 0:22:50.240 Those aren't people who look into aliens. Those are people 0:22:50.280 --> 0:22:56.520 who look into UFOs but are ancient ancient alien ologists. 0:22:59.680 --> 0:23:01.159 I mean, I'm sorry, I'm trying to come up with 0:23:01.240 --> 0:23:04.440 a good term that we can use. It's okay, sorry, 0:23:04.560 --> 0:23:06.720 but it would explain a lot, it would. But but 0:23:06.840 --> 0:23:14.520 here's here's how the folks propose that fairies are actually aliens. 0:23:14.640 --> 0:23:17.880 And this is a it's a fuzzy line that they run. 0:23:18.680 --> 0:23:22.840 We've all heard the phrase extraterrestrial, which means that it's 0:23:22.920 --> 0:23:27.000 something not from Earth coming here or not from Earth. 0:23:27.080 --> 0:23:34.439 And then but of this universe. Well, according to this theory, 0:23:34.720 --> 0:23:41.720 the fairies are ultra terrestrials. What is an ultra terrestrial? Yeah, 0:23:41.920 --> 0:23:44.760 that took me a while to kind of wrap my 0:23:44.880 --> 0:23:47.560 head arrectally. I think I'm kind of an ultra terrestrial 0:23:49.040 --> 0:23:55.359 ultrast Okay, here's here's how this runs. As humans, we 0:23:55.480 --> 0:23:59.320 have all done this planet. We've always considered ourselves to 0:23:59.400 --> 0:24:04.000 be the most intelligent and the only intelligent species on 0:24:04.080 --> 0:24:09.280 the planet. Self aware. Yeah, but according to this there's 0:24:09.440 --> 0:24:16.680 another species that evolved here, either before us or alongside us, 0:24:17.080 --> 0:24:22.399 and that species is the ultra terrestrial the lizard people know, 0:24:22.600 --> 0:24:25.000 not the lizard people. Are you sure, because that's no, 0:24:25.520 --> 0:24:28.200 I'm not sure. I'm not sure. You know, they could 0:24:28.240 --> 0:24:32.040 actually have like evolved before us and actually nudged humanity 0:24:32.080 --> 0:24:35.399 along on its course towards evolution. You sound like an 0:24:35.440 --> 0:24:41.960 ancient alien theorist nation alien upologist. Yeah. Can we not 0:24:42.080 --> 0:24:44.159 have that argument again? Come on, let me, let me, 0:24:44.280 --> 0:24:45.879
