It's a 0:01:14.880 --> 0:01:18.960 house from the thirties. It looks like a horror like 0:01:19.000 --> 0:01:22.640 a blumhouse house. It looks like some blumhouse ship where 0:01:22.640 --> 0:01:24.760 I live for sure, but I love it. I moved 0:01:24.800 --> 0:01:26.959 into a hanted house on purpose. I'm like that kind 0:01:27.000 --> 0:01:27.360 of person. 0:01:27.840 --> 0:01:31.039 You moved into a hont house on purpose. So we 0:01:31.040 --> 0:01:36.200 were talking before we started rolling, and you told me 0:01:36.319 --> 0:01:40.960 that you've been listening to like like UFO podcast podcasts.

But uh, yeah, 0:01:51.560 --> 0:01:55.720 I've been really into this stuff lately, ever since that uh, 0:01:56.200 --> 0:02:00.720 you know, David Grush came forward like a couple. 0:02:00.600 --> 0:02:04.160 Said the guy who said that UFOs were real basically, yeah, 0:02:04.360 --> 0:02:06.000 like Area fifty one or something. 0:02:05.920 --> 0:02:09.240 That was lou Elizondo. Yeah that was recent. Yeah, that 0:02:09.280 --> 0:02:11.800 was more recent. But I've been following it and just 0:02:12.400 --> 0:02:15.320 I find itself fascinating that, you know, we're in a 0:02:15.360 --> 0:02:18.919 place where you know, we're having we're having a UAP 0:02:19.160 --> 0:02:23.160 hearing next week about this stuff. There's like, you know, 0:02:23.320 --> 0:02:26.080 one of the biggest hearings about it ever. 0:02:26.520 --> 0:02:30.880 Do you want to meet aliens?

I want to see something and know 0:02:35.639 --> 0:02:40.960 for sure I definitely believe there's something else going on. 0:02:41.800 --> 0:02:44.440 But is it all aliens? I don't know about that. 0:02:44.560 --> 0:02:46.360 I think there's a lot of this stuff is like 0:02:47.480 --> 0:02:51.240 secret technologies that are being hidden from us, maybe for 0:02:51.320 --> 0:02:51.800 good reason. 0:02:52.080 --> 0:02:54.400 I was trying to find like interviews of you and 0:02:54.440 --> 0:02:56.840 like podcasts and stuff while I was set everything up 0:02:56.880 --> 0:02:58.760 that I could, I could listen to. And I listened 0:02:58.760 --> 0:03:02.000 to one where you talked to about uh being Like, 0:03:02.639 --> 0:03:04.960 I forgive me if I'd not remember this correct, but 0:03:05.000 --> 0:03:11.200 you were like visited by some like shadow Creek shadowing. 0:03:11.400 --> 0:03:13.000 Oh wow, yeah, yeah, yeah. 0:03:12.840 --> 0:03:15.359 Yeah, and that like jump start that jump started. 0:03:15.080 --> 0:03:17.480 Like yeah, the paranormal for me. 0:03:17.560 --> 0:03:20.120 The paranormal or did that I think you said that 0:03:20.200 --> 0:03:22.480 jump started something artistically for you. 0:03:23.000 --> 0:03:25.079 Ah well, it just it was one of those things. 0:03:25.160 --> 0:03:27.960 It just blew me away, man, And I was I was, 0:03:28.200 --> 0:03:31.239 you know, I was a kid who maybe like fifteen 0:03:31.360 --> 0:03:32.000 sixteen or. 0:03:32.000 --> 0:03:32.640 Something like that. 0:03:33.320 --> 0:03:35.600 I wasn't even smoking weed or anything at the time, 0:03:35.800 --> 0:03:38.520 you know, So it was like a real sober experience 0:03:38.640 --> 0:03:41.640 to have to happen to me. Where I woke up 0:03:41.800 --> 0:03:47.680 and I I saw a shadow person, like a silhouette 0:03:47.800 --> 0:03:51.320 type shadow person sitting in my chair, the chair was 0:03:51.360 --> 0:03:52.120 facing the bed. 0:03:52.640 --> 0:03:54.720 Why would the chair be facing the bed. I don't know. 0:03:56.120 --> 0:03:59.840 The thing saw me see it? Oh shit, like God 0:04:00.560 --> 0:04:03.840 ran out the room like no what, I so. 0:04:03.760 --> 0:04:04.040 What do you? 0:04:04.080 --> 0:04:04.160 What? 0:04:04.160 --> 0:04:06.640 Do you? What do you think that was? 0:04:07.560 --> 0:04:08.080 I don't know. 0:04:08.560 --> 0:04:11.120 I think for so long I just told myself it's 0:04:11.200 --> 0:04:14.800 just like residual dream stuff that you bring into this world. 0:04:14.880 --> 0:04:18.960 But people have reported this for so long and I 0:04:18.960 --> 0:04:20.520 don't know, and maybe there's something to it. 0:04:21.640 --> 0:04:22.080 I don't know. 0:04:24.560 --> 0:04:30.520 Do you believe not? Like you, everyone hopes that paranormal 0:04:30.920 --> 0:04:34.680 that like outer world beings that will come to visit us, 0:04:34.760 --> 0:04:40.520 are are going to be uh chill and have peaceful intentions. 0:04:41.160 --> 0:04:42.760 But do you think that is the case or do 0:04:42.800 --> 0:04:46.520 you think they will, as we have done to the 0:04:46.600 --> 0:04:49.320 other creatures on our universe, fuck their ship up. 0:04:49.760 --> 0:04:50.960 I wouldn't be surprised. 0:04:51.000 --> 0:04:53.720 But at the same time, if you look at the 0:04:53.760 --> 0:04:57.680 track record right of their you know, the the sightings 0:04:57.720 --> 0:05:02.080 that we've had here with the military, they've all said 0:05:02.480 --> 0:05:06.279 kind of the opposite. It's like they've diffused nukes, they've 0:05:07.120 --> 0:05:09.720 you know, shut down weapon systems and stuff. It seems 0:05:09.760 --> 0:05:12.640 like they're demonstrating that they're like wait, a minute. Now, 0:05:12.720 --> 0:05:15.720 y'all ain't got nothing in control. We can do this 0:05:15.800 --> 0:05:18.280 and if we wanted to, we would, but it never 0:05:18.320 --> 0:05:20.800 seems like a hostile thing. There was this they just 0:05:20.839 --> 0:05:23.360 the Pentagon just reported there about these drones that were 0:05:23.360 --> 0:05:27.200 flying around an airport last year and we don't know 0:05:27.200 --> 0:05:28.800 what kind of drone they were, Like, yeah, we don't 0:05:28.800 --> 0:05:31.480 know what these things are, but we didn't shoot them 0:05:31.520 --> 0:05:37.760 down because they weren't hostile. So, you know, maybe maybe 0:05:37.760 --> 0:05:41.719 they're not out to do anything but show us, you know, 0:05:41.839 --> 0:05:44.640 give us something to worship or something. Who knows, you know, 0:05:44.680 --> 0:05:46.280 maybe they're they're the angels. 0:05:46.320 --> 0:05:50.599 And when you're I don't know if you're actively doing 0:05:50.640 --> 0:05:53.320 research on UFOs every day, but like when when you were, 0:05:53.560 --> 0:05:56.320 we all get stuck in like internet rabbit holes.

Sure, I definitely talk 0:11:48.440 --> 0:11:48.800 to them. 0:11:48.920 --> 0:11:51.920 And so that's the fact that what you said, I've 0:11:51.960 --> 0:11:53.920 seen all that stuff before. I'm I ask out of 0:11:53.960 --> 0:11:57.040 genuine curiosity, why do you feel as though things get 0:11:57.080 --> 0:11:59.920 more complicated as you get older? Because I would think 0:12:00.120 --> 0:12:03.400 it would be the opposite, because when you're young, you 0:12:03.440 --> 0:12:05.760 don't you have no frames of references. 0:12:05.800 --> 0:12:09.359 I think you're probably right, But I'm not at that older. 0:12:10.679 --> 0:12:13.320 Okay, you know, I'm still in the older where I'm 0:12:13.360 --> 0:12:16.080 like still like I got the fire in me, you know, 0:12:16.160 --> 0:12:18.560 but I'm not like when I don't have that anymore, 0:12:18.600 --> 0:12:21.880 then I'll probably be that older where I'm like, yeah, fuck. 0:12:21.679 --> 0:12:22.480 It, fuck man. 0:12:22.559 --> 0:12:24.480 Well but you can. But yeah, but there's some some 0:12:24.520 --> 0:12:28.080 people lose the fire when they're like nineteen. And then some. 0:12:28.000 --> 0:12:31.480 People, yeah, because they they ruined their lives early on 0:12:31.600 --> 0:12:33.800 or something, they did something, and they just like they 0:12:33.840 --> 0:12:34.680 had that moment. 0:12:34.440 --> 0:12:37.040 Where they're like they probably ain't gonna get no better 0:12:37.040 --> 0:12:42.840 than this. That's bum Well, what keeps? 0:12:42.880 --> 0:12:44.520 What's what are you fired up about? 0:12:46.360 --> 0:12:49.360 I'm fired up about the possibilities. I'm fired up about 0:12:49.480 --> 0:12:53.400 the tools and learning. I'm always learning stuff. And you know, 0:12:53.440 --> 0:12:57.400 I'm always trying to learn stuff about music, and you know, 0:12:57.600 --> 0:13:00.679 I get really excited about that stuff all time, filmmaking 0:13:00.800 --> 0:13:03.840 things and writing ideas, and you know, I have all 0:13:03.880 --> 0:13:06.240 these movies in my head I want to make, and 0:13:06.440 --> 0:13:10.880 so it's that part is, yeah, keeps me, keeps me 0:13:11.160 --> 0:13:12.079 super motivated. 0:13:13.400 --> 0:13:14.720 Kind of what kind of movies you have to watch? 0:13:15.520 --> 0:13:19.040 I like to watch all types of stuff I don't like. 0:13:21.200 --> 0:13:24.120 I don't like war movies as much, but that's been 0:13:24.320 --> 0:13:30.199 my opinions on that have changed a little bit. Yeah, 0:13:30.360 --> 0:13:34.480 there's some like you know, the hard Oscar dramas that 0:13:34.559 --> 0:13:39.040 come out around now till January Oscar season. I usually 0:13:39.040 --> 0:13:41.320 don't like those movies or I just choose not to 0:13:41.360 --> 0:13:44.640 watch them, just because when I do have the time 0:13:44.720 --> 0:13:46.240 to watch a movie and I kind of want to 0:13:46.240 --> 0:13:47.800 just be entertained and have a good time. 0:13:48.160 --> 0:13:50.360 Yeah, you don't want to get into like a deep 0:13:50.720 --> 0:13:52.200 You ever watch Shindler's List. 0:13:52.600 --> 0:13:56.320 It's actually on my list to watch soon and depress myself. 0:13:56.360 --> 0:13:59.720 Well, it's been on my list for about seven years now, 0:14:01.559 --> 0:14:04.080 since the nineties. Yeah, because I just keep I'm like, 0:14:04.559 --> 0:14:06.679 because I'm never gonna be in the mood. 0:14:06.840 --> 0:14:09.760 No, it's so funny you say that because I did 0:14:09.760 --> 0:14:13.160 all I've been doing all the Spielbergs stuff the past 0:14:13.200 --> 0:14:16.240 couple of months, and that's like hanging over like, hey, 0:14:16.440 --> 0:14:17.960 I'm waiting for you, you know whatever. 0:14:18.080 --> 0:14:19.920 Well, if you're doing if you were like if you are, 0:14:19.960 --> 0:14:22.360 like I am making it a thing to sit down 0:14:22.800 --> 0:14:25.480 and watch all the spiel and you come across it, 0:14:26.040 --> 0:14:28.080 then you're like, yeah, there. 0:14:28.240 --> 0:14:32.600 You know, I had just watched ET for the first time, dude, 0:14:33.480 --> 0:14:37.200 But like that, honestly was probably the most hardcore movie 0:14:37.280 --> 0:14:38.000 I've ever seen. 0:14:38.320 --> 0:14:39.960 What what What? What was it? What was it that 0:14:40.040 --> 0:14:40.440 made it? 0:14:40.520 --> 0:14:42.680 Man? It was hard? Man. That was a hard movie 0:14:42.920 --> 0:14:43.480 just in terms. 0:14:43.560 --> 0:14:45.720 It was like my first time watching it ever, never 0:14:45.760 --> 0:14:50.200 seen it, but it was it was so beautiful and 0:14:50.200 --> 0:14:55.320 and so sweet that it was hardcore, I think because 0:14:55.360 --> 0:15:00.960 it was just so hard hardcore, optimistic about the future, 0:15:01.160 --> 0:15:09.800 about adults, and it was obviously like just so emotional, 0:15:10.360 --> 0:15:13.640 you know, I was. I was profoundly moved by that movie. 0:15:13.680 --> 0:15:16.080 I was like crying for like a half hour watching. 0:15:16.480 --> 0:15:19.120 I'm excited to see What's What's what ultimately made you 0:15:19.160 --> 0:15:21.600 cry more Between ET and Chandler's. 0:15:21.160 --> 0:15:24.800 List, It'll be ET for sure. Because there was. As 0:15:24.800 --> 0:15:26.680 soon as I started watching, I was like, oh my god, 0:15:26.720 --> 0:15:28.320 I feel like I'm ten washing. 0:15:28.240 --> 0:15:30.680 Yeah, you know, and it's like it's still that thing 0:15:30.800 --> 0:15:34.080 was still effective. Whatever he did, the magic, it's it was, 0:15:34.120 --> 0:15:36.720 it's still there and uh and I was just it 0:15:36.800 --> 0:15:39.480 was so cool to have not seen it this whole 0:15:39.480 --> 0:15:40.720 time and then finally see it. 0:15:40.720 --> 0:15:42.680 It felt like it was like waiting. 0:15:42.880 --> 0:15:44.960 But I like that though. That shows that there's something 0:15:46.080 --> 0:15:50.560 like more moving about optimism than there is about uh, 0:15:51.960 --> 0:15:52.800 depressing ship. 0:15:53.240 --> 0:15:57.920 Yeah. Oh yeah. For me, it's because it's so that's 0:15:58.000 --> 0:15:58.480 the movie. 0:15:59.240 --> 0:16:04.000 That's the fiction, is the the optimism and the hopeful 0:16:04.560 --> 0:16:07.120 thing where it's just like, oh man, if only we could, 0:16:08.040 --> 0:16:09.560 you know, if only we could. 0:16:09.600 --> 0:16:14.120 Just I haven't seen et and you know what, what 0:16:14.120 --> 0:16:18.400 what was it that you think made it optimistic? 0:16:20.280 --> 0:16:20.640 Hmmm? 0:16:21.720 --> 0:16:25.040 I think that For one, you know, the aliens were like, 0:16:26.440 --> 0:16:29.120 you know, just here to like look at plants and stuff. 0:16:29.160 --> 0:16:33.400 They were just like biologists, you know, they're just studying stuff. 0:16:33.560 --> 0:16:37.239 And and you know, the the humans, the bad guys, 0:16:37.760 --> 0:16:39.520 they're like kind of the bad guys.
