0:01:19.080 --> 0:01:22.319
<v Speaker 1>not one of those very special episodes where say Devon

0:01:22.400 --> 0:01:25.280
<v Speaker 1>discovers that she has dyslexia, or Joe finds out, he

0:01:25.319 --> 0:01:28.200
<v Speaker 1>has as No, it's not special in that sense, but

0:01:28.240 --> 0:01:30.440
<v Speaker 1>it's special in the sense that we have decided to

0:01:30.480 --> 0:01:33.360
<v Speaker 1>come out of retirements just this one time to address

0:01:33.720 --> 0:01:36.560
<v Speaker 1>some of the insane rumors on the internet and in

0:01:36.640 --> 0:01:39.800
<v Speaker 1>the tabloids. I'm sure you've all heard them. We're here

0:01:39.800 --> 0:01:42.560
<v Speaker 1>to clear the air and set the record straight, all right,

0:01:42.600 --> 0:01:44.479
<v Speaker 1>So let's get rolling. And by the way, of course,

0:01:44.520 --> 0:01:48.440
<v Speaker 1>I am Joe and I'm Steve, and of course we

0:01:48.480 --> 0:01:51.080
<v Speaker 1>are talking about a story that you've probably all seen

0:01:51.240 --> 0:01:56.000
<v Speaker 1>about a conspiracy involving us. Manly Steve, who's sitting across

0:01:56.000 --> 0:01:58.360
<v Speaker 1>the table from me, was killed in a car wreck

0:01:58.520 --> 0:02:01.720
<v Speaker 1>and replaced by a double who looks and sounds just

0:02:01.880 --> 0:02:06.720
<v Speaker 1>like Steve. So thinking sideways, swapped in a new me

0:02:07.160 --> 0:02:10.120
<v Speaker 1>and continued honest if nothing happened for a year, and

0:02:10.160 --> 0:02:13.600
<v Speaker 1>then discreetly wound down the podcast. Why would they do

0:02:13.680 --> 0:02:16.760
<v Speaker 1>this or why would we do this? Well, I think

0:02:16.800 --> 0:02:19.200
<v Speaker 1>it's because we were making a lot of money off advertising,

0:02:19.240 --> 0:02:22.519
<v Speaker 1>and Joe and devon us I knew that if there

0:02:22.600 --> 0:02:26.120
<v Speaker 1>was no Steve Steve sitting across from me, that they'd

0:02:26.160 --> 0:02:32.200
<v Speaker 1>lose like their listeners, yeah, and all of our revenue. Yeah, yeah,

0:02:32.639 --> 0:02:36.120
<v Speaker 1>but then the stories started to appear in the tabloids.

0:02:36.160 --> 0:02:39.079
<v Speaker 1>So we that is team Sideways since which way the

0:02:39.080 --> 0:02:41.280
<v Speaker 1>wind was blowing, and decided to stick a fork in

0:02:41.320 --> 0:02:44.520
<v Speaker 1>it before we got well and truly busted for our fraud.

0:02:44.760 --> 0:02:47.480
<v Speaker 1>So this is the basic narrative that we've all heard.

0:02:47.560 --> 0:02:49.560
<v Speaker 1>You guys are all familiar with. It's you know, in

0:02:49.639 --> 0:02:53.080
<v Speaker 1>all the tabloids on thousands of websites. But is it true?

0:02:54.760 --> 0:02:58.840
<v Speaker 1>Well no, uh, And so we have come out of

0:02:58.880 --> 0:03:02.040
<v Speaker 1>hiding to give this ludicrous story the SmackDown is so

0:03:02.160 --> 0:03:05.600
<v Speaker 1>richly deserves. So let's go back to the beginning here.

0:03:05.639 --> 0:03:09.480
<v Speaker 1>This conspiracy theory popped out first in about March when

0:03:09.560 --> 0:03:13.359
<v Speaker 1>Ready user me Caru that's m why ka e R

0:03:13.520 --> 0:03:15.840
<v Speaker 1>you put up a post about it. He was a

0:03:15.880 --> 0:03:18.519
<v Speaker 1>longtime listener to the podcast, and he said that he'd

0:03:18.520 --> 0:03:21.320
<v Speaker 1>noticed some odd things about Steve in recent months, such

0:03:21.360 --> 0:03:24.639
<v Speaker 1>as what well. He said that Steve was sounding subtly

0:03:24.919 --> 0:03:27.760
<v Speaker 1>different in the last six months or so the podcast.

0:03:28.240 --> 0:03:29.520
<v Speaker 1>I don't know, I mean, do you know, I just

0:03:29.600 --> 0:03:32.720
<v Speaker 1>wasn't going through a second puberty or something. You don't

0:03:32.720 --> 0:03:34.840
<v Speaker 1>need to convince me. I mean people go through puberoty

0:03:34.880 --> 0:03:37.160
<v Speaker 1>all the time, all the time. Yeah, but this is

0:03:37.200 --> 0:03:40.240
<v Speaker 1>what the tinfoil hacked crowd is saying. Yeah, I mean

0:03:40.280 --> 0:03:44.360
<v Speaker 1>also me. Caru pointed out some other things, like the

0:03:44.440 --> 0:03:47.440
<v Speaker 1>character of the story Steve covered had changed. For example,

0:03:47.880 --> 0:03:51.800
<v Speaker 1>he devoted an entire episode to some very obscure South

0:03:51.840 --> 0:03:56.040
<v Speaker 1>American big folip. Oh yeah, I interesting thing with the

0:03:56.080 --> 0:03:59.960
<v Speaker 1>mouth in his stomach. You've never would have done that, Spranish,

0:04:00.520 --> 0:04:05.080
<v Speaker 1>you would have told l S big foot of I've

0:04:05.080 --> 0:04:08.120
<v Speaker 1>always loved a big foot. Plus plus I forget Steve

0:04:08.200 --> 0:04:10.600
<v Speaker 1>does love diversity. It is true. Well, he did some

0:04:10.640 --> 0:04:14.640
<v Speaker 1>more digging and found some more air quotes. Evidence. For example,

0:04:15.040 --> 0:04:18.400
<v Speaker 1>of photos of Steve published after summer two thousand and

0:04:18.440 --> 0:04:21.520
<v Speaker 1>seventeen appeared to be out of date and probably actually

0:04:21.600 --> 0:04:25.000
<v Speaker 1>predate his demise. For example, there's a picture on the

0:04:25.080 --> 0:04:29.960
<v Speaker 1>Thinking Sideways fa Facebook page dated May two thousand and seventeen,

0:04:30.240 --> 0:04:33.080
<v Speaker 1>and then another photo appeared on Twitter in early two

0:04:33.120 --> 0:04:36.640
<v Speaker 1>thousand eighteen. In the two pictures, Steve's hair is the

0:04:36.760 --> 0:04:42.279
<v Speaker 1>same length. Shouldn't it have been longer in two thousand eighteen? Point?

0:04:42.320 --> 0:04:47.520
<v Speaker 1>Actually it's a haircut. I got a haircut. Guys, you

0:04:47.520 --> 0:04:49.479
<v Speaker 1>don't have come again. You're not you don't have to

0:04:49.480 --> 0:04:52.520
<v Speaker 1>convincess it's okay. All the Reddit users got into the game.

0:04:53.000 --> 0:04:56.039
<v Speaker 1>You history seven seven seven listened to every episode of

0:04:56.040 --> 0:04:59.000
<v Speaker 1>the podcast backwards, and they found that in the Lake

0:04:59.040 --> 0:05:01.560
<v Speaker 1>City Quiet Hills EPISO, so you can hear a ghostly

0:05:01.640 --> 0:05:05.440
<v Speaker 1>word or ghostly phrase, Steve has been snuffed out like

0:05:05.480 --> 0:05:09.440
<v Speaker 1>a lucky button, among other things. What it's crazy, I mean,

0:05:09.440 --> 0:05:11.160
<v Speaker 1>it's it's just something we put in the background of

0:05:11.160 --> 0:05:14.919
<v Speaker 1>the podcast all the time. Well, apparently it also says

0:05:14.960 --> 0:05:18.360
<v Speaker 1>by Americans several times, and something about bomba socks, something

0:05:18.360 --> 0:05:24.440
<v Speaker 1>about they're so comfortable. Yeah, I know it's but I

0:05:24.640 --> 0:05:27.120
<v Speaker 1>don't know why they would be backwards in the podcast

0:05:27.720 --> 0:05:31.080
<v Speaker 1>subliminal advertising. I have to be totally honest with you guys.

0:05:31.080 --> 0:05:33.760
<v Speaker 1>I have no idea how to listen to a podcast backwards,

0:05:33.920 --> 0:05:37.960
<v Speaker 1>I mean, neither to fluence. Yeah, and listening to our

0:05:38.120 --> 0:05:40.720
<v Speaker 1>entire catalog backwards, Oh my god, that that guy must

0:05:40.760 --> 0:05:46.480
<v Speaker 1>have brain. Yeah. So then finally, somebody who had deleted

0:05:46.520 --> 0:05:49.760
<v Speaker 1>their user profile so you know, I don't know who

0:05:49.800 --> 0:05:52.520
<v Speaker 1>what their user name is, posted that Steve had been

0:05:52.520 --> 0:05:55.760
<v Speaker 1>involved in a fatal car crash on August eleven, two

0:05:55.760 --> 0:05:59.120
<v Speaker 1>thousand seventeen. He was extremely light on details, but claim

0:05:59.160 --> 0:06:01.880
<v Speaker 1>to have a copy of the police report, newspaper clippings,

0:06:01.880 --> 0:06:05.880
<v Speaker 1>and etcetera. As anybody seeing any of this evidence. No,

0:06:06.040 --> 0:06:08.360
<v Speaker 1>but the general consensus on Reddit is is why would

0:06:08.360 --> 0:06:13.600
<v Speaker 1>this user lie on the internet? In general? Yeah, but

0:06:13.800 --> 0:06:17.640
<v Speaker 1>in this case, I questioned his credibility. Okay, Well, for

0:06:17.800 --> 0:06:19.640
<v Speaker 1>one thing, I mean, to me, the idea that Steve

0:06:19.720 --> 0:06:21.760
<v Speaker 1>lost control of this car and skin it off the

0:06:21.839 --> 0:06:24.280
<v Speaker 1>road and over a cliff. It's kind of ridiculous because

0:06:24.440 --> 0:06:27.880
<v Speaker 1>isn't that what guardrails are for? Yeah? Yeah, And it's

0:06:27.880 --> 0:06:29.960
<v Speaker 1>a certain to think the car rolled seven times and

0:06:29.960 --> 0:06:32.080
<v Speaker 1>then burst in flames. I mean, the car would have

0:06:32.080 --> 0:06:34.760
<v Speaker 1>had to be moving really fast to roll seven times.

0:06:34.920 --> 0:06:38.360
<v Speaker 1>And Steve was not a fast or reckless driver, is

0:06:39.320 --> 0:06:45.039
<v Speaker 1>amm Yeah, Steve is not a fast driver. Yeah. I'm

0:06:45.040 --> 0:06:47.960
<v Speaker 1>not a fast driver. I obey the laws of the

0:06:48.240 --> 0:06:51.360
<v Speaker 1>road scrupulously. It drives the cops crazy, follow me around

0:06:51.680 --> 0:06:57.080
<v Speaker 1>waiting for me to somebody over. So is there, I mean,

0:06:57.120 --> 0:07:00.400
<v Speaker 1>is there any more evidence to back this clean up? Yeah?

0:07:00.400 --> 0:07:02.320
<v Speaker 1>There is that famous picture of the three of us

0:07:02.360 --> 0:07:05.920
<v Speaker 1>crossing Hawthorne Street. That's the one where Steve is Yeah,

0:07:05.960 --> 0:07:09.000
<v Speaker 1>I do remember that. Yeah, you know, I just hearded

0:07:09.120 --> 0:07:12.920
<v Speaker 1>little athletes foot that day and the aarramund we were

0:07:12.920 --> 0:07:15.200
<v Speaker 1>going to go in the studio, and is this like

0:07:15.520 --> 0:07:18.119
<v Speaker 1>is this like a like a like a condition Paul

0:07:18.200 --> 0:07:23.679
<v Speaker 1>is dead sort of premonition of exactly exactly like the

0:07:24.360 --> 0:07:27.720
<v Speaker 1>that's the dumbest thing I've ever heard, But it was

0:07:27.760 --> 0:07:31.600
<v Speaker 1>like it was like foreshadowing of this of demise. Apparently

0:07:31.680 --> 0:07:33.720
<v Speaker 1>that's the Many people have interpreted that the little foot

0:07:33.720 --> 0:07:39.400
<v Speaker 1>focus is nothing to see here? Oh my god? So yeah,

0:07:39.440 --> 0:07:42.080
<v Speaker 1>I mean, I guess I did here. Also on reddit um,

0:07:42.640 --> 0:07:47.400
<v Speaker 1>people were pretty suspicious of Steve's beard. You remember the

0:07:47.400 --> 0:07:54.960
<v Speaker 1>beards beard an obscured part of his face, which is

0:07:55.040 --> 0:07:57.080
<v Speaker 1>the sort of thing that an impostor might do if

0:07:57.120 --> 0:07:59.320
<v Speaker 1>only the top half of their face looked exactly like

0:07:59.400 --> 0:08:03.720
<v Speaker 1>Steve for the automatical look. I don't make as much

0:08:03.720 --> 0:08:05.400
<v Speaker 1>money at podcasting as I wish I did, and I

0:08:05.400 --> 0:08:08.600
<v Speaker 1>took a job as a mall santa. It's it's pretty

0:08:08.640 --> 0:08:13.200
<v Speaker 1>much that's all right, okay, perfectly raginal explanations. What a

0:08:13.320 --> 0:08:15.440
<v Speaker 1>joyce job that would be. I don't know. People thought

0:08:15.440 --> 0:08:17.960
<v Speaker 1>the timing was weird, but I guess I'll I'll what

0:08:18.080 --> 0:08:20.120
<v Speaker 1>timing was a little suspect, I got to admit, but

0:08:20.160 --> 0:08:22.400
<v Speaker 1>it's just a coincidence. I mean, back, okay, so back

0:08:22.400 --> 0:08:25.600
<v Speaker 1>to Reddit stuff Reddit. I mean, you know, the post

0:08:25.720 --> 0:08:28.120
<v Speaker 1>on Reddit continued, and then it went viral on Reddit,

0:08:28.480 --> 0:08:31.800
<v Speaker 1>and then you know, tabloids and everything else. We're picking

0:08:31.800 --> 0:08:34.160
<v Speaker 1>it up in the rest of history that we all know. Yea,

0:08:34.600 --> 0:08:38.720
<v Speaker 1>by the way, fake history, yeah, fake history. Yeah, not true.

0:08:38.960 --> 0:08:41.080
<v Speaker 1>None of it's true. None of it's true. Yeah. There

0:08:41.120 --> 0:08:45.400
<v Speaker 1>are also some other variations on this story, um alternative theories.

0:08:46.080 --> 0:08:48.520
<v Speaker 1>The Weekly World News ran a series of stories based

0:08:48.559 --> 0:08:52.240
<v Speaker 1>on another hypothesis, which is as Steve staged a car crash,

0:08:52.640 --> 0:08:55.440
<v Speaker 1>faked his death, and want to live in a foreign country.

0:08:57.040 --> 0:09:00.280
<v Speaker 1>What foreign country? Steve doesn't speak any foreign language. I

0:09:00.320 --> 0:09:04.040
<v Speaker 1>don't speak any foreign language. You have trouble even going

0:09:04.040 --> 0:09:08.199
<v Speaker 1>to Canada and not getting arrested. I mean, the video

0:09:08.280 --> 0:09:10.480
<v Speaker 1>of the car crash does look pretty fake though. Oh yeah,

0:09:10.640 --> 0:09:13.320
<v Speaker 1>it looks like somebody not lighter fluid on a plastic

0:09:13.360 --> 0:09:15.680
<v Speaker 1>car model and torch it. I know, I mean, but

0:09:15.679 --> 0:09:19.000
<v Speaker 1>but Steve I clearly couldn't have just gone faked his

0:09:19.040 --> 0:09:20.679
<v Speaker 1>death and gone to a different country. I mean, I

0:09:20.760 --> 0:09:23.000
<v Speaker 1>haven't gone a postcard, have you not? Have you got

0:09:23.080 --> 0:09:26.400
<v Speaker 1>a postcard? Why would I send myself a postcard? Yeah? Yeah,

0:09:26.480 --> 0:09:30.240
<v Speaker 1>of course point guards. And also, you know, if Steve

0:09:30.480 --> 0:09:33.360
<v Speaker 1>was pretended dead and living overseas somewhere sooner or later

0:09:33.400 --> 0:09:35.760
<v Speaker 1>I know him, he would forget himself and post something

0:09:35.800 --> 0:09:40.160
<v Speaker 1>on Facebook or Twitter or Instagram from Botswana, Guatemala or

0:09:40.240 --> 0:09:43.200
<v Speaker 1>wherever he is. He hasn't done that, as I love Facebook. Yeah.

0:09:44.840 --> 0:09:48.200
<v Speaker 1>Another theory that I have also heard is that Devin

0:09:48.280 --> 0:09:52.760
<v Speaker 1>and Joe, you know, had Steve bumped off because they

0:09:52.760 --> 0:09:55.199
<v Speaker 1>wanted to run more commercials and replace him with a

0:09:55.320 --> 0:09:59.520
<v Speaker 1>sound alike. Yeah that's yeah, that is that we wanted

0:09:59.559 --> 0:10:02.240
<v Speaker 1>to run like twice three times as many commercials and

0:10:02.280 --> 0:10:05.360
<v Speaker 1>you were against it. And so the thing that's ridiculous

0:10:05.400 --> 0:10:07.400
<v Speaker 1>about this is the idea that the Devon and I

0:10:07.440 --> 0:10:09.839
<v Speaker 1>would hire somebody to do it rather than doing it ourselves.

0:10:10.240 --> 0:10:12.839
<v Speaker 1>I mean, what am I saying? I mean, I mean

0:10:12.880 --> 0:10:14.560
<v Speaker 1>the thing about it is so it's like, you know,

0:10:14.760 --> 0:10:17.520
<v Speaker 1>Devon and I have never been in it for the money. No,

0:10:17.600 --> 0:10:20.040
<v Speaker 1>never never been about the money. No, not not for

0:10:20.080 --> 0:10:22.240
<v Speaker 1>any of us. And so I think we can stick

0:10:22.240 --> 0:10:24.640
<v Speaker 1>a fork in this theory. What do you guys think, Yeah,

0:10:24.640 --> 0:10:27.920
<v Speaker 1>it's obviously Yeah, I mean, even if you did, it's

0:10:27.960 --> 0:10:31.480
<v Speaker 1>so ridiculous. Where would you, guys even find a replacement?

0:10:31.520 --> 0:10:33.079
<v Speaker 1>Where would you even go to find a sound like

0:10:35.040 --> 0:10:38.240
<v Speaker 1>I mean, I'm sorry, it's as hard as you think. No,

0:10:38.400 --> 0:10:40.720
<v Speaker 1>it's actually super easy to put an add on Craig. Yeah,

0:10:41.120 --> 0:10:43.040
<v Speaker 1>but you know, not that that's got anything to do

0:10:43.080 --> 0:10:46.280
<v Speaker 1>with this, but anyway, not for a human Yeah, yeah, yeah,

0:10:48.000 --> 0:10:50.600
<v Speaker 1>I mean it's one thing that you can find something

0:10:50.600 --> 0:10:53.760
<v Speaker 1>that looks like me, but it sounds just like me.

0:10:54.240 --> 0:10:56.560
<v Speaker 1>I mean, you gotta admit if I'm Steve, I sure

0:10:56.720 --> 0:10:59.800
<v Speaker 1>he'll have his exact voice. No, I I mean I

0:10:59.880 --> 0:11:03.720
<v Speaker 1>know you just you sound exactly like Steve. Yeah, I

0:11:03.760 --> 0:11:11.120
<v Speaker 1>mean like Steve. Yeah, yeah, Steve, the original Steve. Do

0:11:11.160 --> 0:11:15.280
<v Speaker 1>you have to smoke in here? Jail? Seriously? Got oh

0:11:16.960 --> 0:11:22.880
<v Speaker 1>why did you do that? Just a little more, guys,

0:11:22.920 --> 0:11:25.400
<v Speaker 1>if Steve was dead, would he be able to feel pain? Huh?

0:11:26.520 --> 0:11:29.240
<v Speaker 1>It's a good point, and that did hurt a lot. Okay, Well,

0:11:30.400 --> 0:11:32.439
<v Speaker 1>that's that's an important thing. We gotta we got to

0:11:32.480 --> 0:11:35.120
<v Speaker 1>really make sure that that we convinced people with this. Yeah,

0:11:35.960 --> 0:11:39.160
<v Speaker 1>the story is complete. B s Yeah, yeah, yeah it is.

0:11:39.880 --> 0:11:42.080
<v Speaker 1>And it's just another one of these situations. I mean,

0:11:42.120 --> 0:11:44.760
<v Speaker 1>it's similarly to the Boston bomber or we've seen this

0:11:44.840 --> 0:11:47.439
<v Speaker 1>on Reddit so many times. You guys think you know

0:11:47.640 --> 0:11:49.920
<v Speaker 1>what you're saying, but you don't. You're just a group

0:11:49.960 --> 0:11:52.160
<v Speaker 1>of idiots. And I love you, but you're a group

0:11:52.200 --> 0:11:54.559
<v Speaker 1>of idiots who just have no idea what you're talking about.

0:11:54.600 --> 0:12:00.400
<v Speaker 1>So just stop talking forever. Well, yeah, because I'm Steve, Steve,

0:12:00.559 --> 0:12:03.839
<v Speaker 1>Yeah yeah, and uh, you know, you can't actually talk

0:12:03.840 --> 0:12:06.079
<v Speaker 1>about how awesome we are. You don't stop talking about that.

0:12:06.440 --> 0:12:08.280
<v Speaker 1>And I to talk about how much money you want

0:12:08.280 --> 0:12:10.480
<v Speaker 1>to mail to us, that's good too. Yeah, But overall,

0:12:10.480 --> 0:12:12.520
<v Speaker 1>on this story, I gotta tell you, guys, this is

0:12:12.640 --> 0:12:16.200
<v Speaker 1>a huge fail. Shame on you for spreading this Internet

0:12:16.480 --> 0:12:19.040
<v Speaker 1>and shame on you for believing it. You she believe

0:12:19.040 --> 0:12:22.760
<v Speaker 1>you up. That's right. So I guess that's the end

0:12:22.800 --> 0:12:26.040
<v Speaker 1>of this. Yeah, it's a kind of a brief little thing,

0:12:26.120 --> 0:12:28.200
<v Speaker 1>but this is such a stupid little story. Didn't did

0:12:28.320 --> 0:12:31.000
<v Speaker 1>long to really smack it down. Yeah, so I guess, um.
