So I personally 0:01:09.080 --> 0:01:11.240 really love this episode number seven. 0:01:11.360 --> 0:01:12.360 Okay, we're all here. 0:01:12.640 --> 0:01:15.080 We bounced back. I'm getting better from my illness. Amy's 0:01:15.080 --> 0:01:19.200 getting better from her illness. Lunchbox's eyes still swallen. I 0:01:19.240 --> 0:01:21.560 don't know, man, that's the utherdude, I don't know, dude. 0:01:21.720 --> 0:01:23.039 Anyway, let's go around the room. 0:01:23.120 --> 0:01:24.959 Ray go from Mountain Pine in Arkansas. 0:01:25.000 --> 0:01:28.200 He hosts the Bobby Cast and he refuses to finish 0:01:28.319 --> 0:01:29.200 last Bobby Bone. 0:01:29.200 --> 0:01:29.959 Thank you very much. 0:01:30.200 --> 0:01:34.240 Hey, So in Vegas, if you remember correctly from the 0:01:34.360 --> 0:01:37.839 officer's body cam, you see something in the sky fall 0:01:37.880 --> 0:01:41.280 out of the air. This couple calls nine one one 0:01:41.280 --> 0:01:43.240 and they're like, there's something in my yard and it's 0:01:43.280 --> 0:01:45.920 like nine foot tall and it kind of looked like 0:01:45.920 --> 0:01:51.440 an alien. And so from that falling to that spot 0:01:51.560 --> 0:01:54.240 ish to the alien that we saw in the backyard 0:01:54.320 --> 0:01:56.680 on the video, there has been an update in the 0:01:56.680 --> 0:01:59.200 story because you know, I'm fascinated with this stuff. Come on, 0:02:00.080 --> 0:02:03.320 land Security went to that house because they were like, 0:02:04.160 --> 0:02:07.040 we don't think this is a joke. Homeland Security went 0:02:07.040 --> 0:02:09.280 to that house and they installed all of these cameras 0:02:09.280 --> 0:02:13.440 there just in case aliens or people looking for the 0:02:13.440 --> 0:02:15.440 aliens show up to that house. 0:02:15.760 --> 0:02:19.160 Yeah, because in ET they come back looking for ET. Yes, yes, 0:02:19.240 --> 0:02:21.560 but yes, so I get it. 0:02:21.600 --> 0:02:24.799 So tell me that if the Department of Homeland Security 0:02:24.800 --> 0:02:27.360 shows up wants to install cameras outside of your house 0:02:27.400 --> 0:02:30.000 to look around, that that's not something that gives it 0:02:30.040 --> 0:02:30.880 a bit of credibility. 0:02:30.960 --> 0:02:32.840 They can't take the risk that it doesn't, you know 0:02:32.880 --> 0:02:34.919 what I mean, Like a cop. If you somebody calls 0:02:34.919 --> 0:02:36.520 the cops say hey, come over here and check this out, 0:02:36.520 --> 0:02:37.799 they're not going to be like I don't believe you 0:02:37.840 --> 0:02:37.960 or not. 0:02:37.960 --> 0:02:39.480 I know, they've already check it out. They've already been there. 0:02:39.520 --> 0:02:41.160 But they went back again and put these cameras up. 0:02:41.200 --> 0:02:43.280 Yeah, probab because these people were harassed them going like no, 0:02:43.320 --> 0:02:44.040 really there was something. 0:02:44.120 --> 0:02:46.040 Fine, we'll make you feel better. We'll put cameras up, 0:02:46.120 --> 0:02:47.040 just leave us alone. 0:02:47.240 --> 0:02:48.079 That is not the case. 0:02:48.200 --> 0:02:50.040 I saw the footage of that thing, dude, that's not 0:02:50.160 --> 0:02:54.000 I mean, that's that's not real, right, that's what you saw. 0:02:54.160 --> 0:02:58.320 It pay So they got it on video, so. 0:02:58.320 --> 0:03:04.920 They said, hey, you're crazy, the guy did you ever 0:03:04.919 --> 0:03:05.600 hear the nine one call? 0:03:05.600 --> 0:03:08.919 Were you gone? She was gone when we played the 0:03:09.000 --> 0:03:11.160 nine on one call? The guy yeah, heard that? 0:03:11.200 --> 0:03:13.040 Well anyway, called Sector's night foot object. You see the 0:03:13.040 --> 0:03:14.320 alien turning his head back and forth. 0:03:16.720 --> 0:03:18.760 And they said, I think we think it's an alien. 0:03:18.960 --> 0:03:21.639 Yeah, and now the Homeland Security is there. So what 0:03:21.680 --> 0:03:22.480 more proof do you need? 0:03:22.680 --> 0:03:22.920 Right? 0:03:23.560 --> 0:03:25.920 I need the footage from their new cameras.

Yeah, probably even better. Oh, 0:03:39.360 --> 0:03:40.520 they can probably predict the future. 0:03:40.920 --> 0:03:42.680 Okay, anyway, you guys can hate my stories. I just 0:03:42.680 --> 0:03:45.240 want to update you on that Homeland Security got involved. 0:03:45.720 --> 0:03:49.440 Did y'all own?

We're gonna 0:04:02.680 --> 0:04:04.440 play it, but then Amy got sick. Do you want 0:04:04.480 --> 0:04:05.080 to play it now? 0:04:06.200 --> 0:04:07.080 I don't care when you want? 0:04:07.120 --> 0:04:09.280 It fits right here, rad you have the Stephens Show. Ready. 0:04:09.400 --> 0:04:11.720 This is Amy's son, Stevenson, who wants to do shows, 0:04:11.760 --> 0:04:12.800 and this one's about UFOs. 0:04:12.840 --> 0:04:18.039 Go ahead, Stephenson Evenson Radio show. 0:04:19.279 --> 0:04:23.720 Today, we're talking about UFOs. I watch encounter stories on 0:04:23.800 --> 0:04:26.640 YouTube told by the people who were there, and I 0:04:26.800 --> 0:04:29.880 maybe believe them. Like the sixty kids in South Africa, 0:04:29.960 --> 0:04:32.680 they're also the same thing while at school. Here's a 0:04:32.760 --> 0:04:36.880 clip from BBC. They had both black eyes. 0:04:37.320 --> 0:04:38.080 That's all I saw. 0:04:38.120 --> 0:04:41.200 I saw a glimpse they kind of turned around on 0:04:41.600 --> 0:04:44.679 stage and then went back into a kind of like ship. 0:04:44.760 --> 0:04:47.960 That happened in Africa. But fun fact, ninety two percent 0:04:48.000 --> 0:04:51.680 of UFO signing takes place in America. So keep your 0:04:51.720 --> 0:04:57.040 eyes open, people open people. 0:04:57.400 --> 0:05:02.760 Stephenson Evens radio show, it's getting better.

He's getting better, and it's about topic I 0:05:05.000 --> 0:05:05.600 want to hear about. 0:05:05.640 --> 0:05:07.919 Course, I didn't know ninety two percent of the sightings 0:05:07.920 --> 0:05:08.640 happened in America. 0:05:08.640 --> 0:05:10.640 Don't even care if it's true. I'm in. We love 0:05:10.760 --> 0:05:12.000 like social media. 0:05:12.920 --> 0:05:20.800 And it's the best bits of the week with Morgan. 0:05:20.880 --> 0:05:23.960 Number two, a listener called in to share that she 0:05:24.040 --> 0:05:26.520 was celebrating her twenty first birthday and wanted to know 0:05:26.640 --> 0:05:29.200 what all we did for our twenty first birthdays.

But 0:05:34.480 --> 0:05:37.520 these are our stories that we mostly remember from our 0:05:37.520 --> 0:05:38.480 twenty first birthdays. 0:05:38.880 --> 0:05:42.080 Number six, Let's talk to Ashley, who is in Texas.

You know what? 0:07:11.680 --> 0:07:14.800 I didn't think about that at first? Twenty one? What 0:07:14.840 --> 0:07:16.640 did you do on your twenty first birthday? I don't 0:07:16.680 --> 0:07:17.560 know exactly. 0:07:17.680 --> 0:07:19.200 You don't remember anything about it. 0:07:19.240 --> 0:07:19.600 I worked. 0:07:19.600 --> 0:07:21.320 Probably depends on what day a week it was. I'm 0:07:21.360 --> 0:07:24.800 sure there was something, had some cake. But other than that, 0:07:24.840 --> 0:07:26.960 it's just a regular birthday. Twenty one is the year 0:07:27.000 --> 0:07:29.160 you can drink. That's the only reason we remember it. 0:07:29.280 --> 0:07:31.040 Yeah, Morgan, do you remember your twenty one? 0:07:31.360 --> 0:07:31.760 Not really? 0:07:31.800 --> 0:07:33.840 I had twenty four shots on my twenty first birthday? 0:07:33.920 --> 0:07:36.760 Yeah, twenty first of all, is that possible? You had 0:07:36.760 --> 0:07:38.720 twenty four on your twenty first? Yeah? 0:07:38.720 --> 0:07:41.440 So what it was in Manhattan, Kansas. And what they 0:07:41.480 --> 0:07:43.520 do at my college was create a shot book. 0:07:43.520 --> 0:07:45.320 All your friends put together a little scrap book and 0:07:45.360 --> 0:07:47.080 you had this whole shot book and somebody carried it 0:07:47.080 --> 0:07:49.440 around with you all night, and it wrote down who 0:07:49.480 --> 0:07:51.560 bought the shot. You had to sign it every time, 0:07:51.600 --> 0:07:53.280 what your quote was after you took the shot. And 0:07:53.280 --> 0:07:56.160 I filled out the entirety of my twenty one shot book, 0:07:56.480 --> 0:07:58.160 and then I just kept going because that was good. 0:07:58.160 --> 0:08:00.480 I was ready to get twenty four shots? Isn't that 0:08:00.520 --> 0:08:01.360 a lot? Guys? I don't know. 0:08:02.560 --> 0:08:05.000 But it also depends what you're doing, Like you could 0:08:05.000 --> 0:08:07.400 do twenty four lemon drops, no problem? 0:08:07.720 --> 0:08:11.560 Oh no, no, no problem here, that's a lot. 0:08:11.760 --> 0:08:12.679 There's gonna be a problem. 0:08:12.760 --> 0:08:16.400 Yeah. Again, I don't drink, never drank, so I don't know. 0:08:16.720 --> 0:08:18.400 Twenty four seems like a lot, though. 0:08:18.280 --> 0:08:20.320 Twenty four shots years?
