Starting point is 00:00:00 Dear Truckin' A, wanna talk torque? The Tundra's forceful twin-turbo V6 will blow your mind. The Tacomas got bite and a taller suspension to claw through that terrain. Man, you'll dig it. Both Toyota trucks are tough on the outside and plush on the inside, with luxurious seats and a heck of an audio multimedia setup. Sync back and turn it up. Nice.
Starting point is 00:00:25 Rev it up at Toyota.com. Toyota. Let's go places. Hello, my little children, menats. Woo-hoo. Yeah, welcome back. Welcome back to Chill Mini Episode 40-something. It's a UFO heavy one. I'm just gonna take the reins right away, gentlemen, because I'm just gonna follow.
Starting point is 00:01:08 We just did Betty and Barney Hill Part 1. New UFO photos were released by Jeremy Corbel. Does anybody do you guys know who Jeremy Corbel is? No. His big UFO documentary guy showed up on the Joe Rogan podcast a couple of times. Kind of an annoying voice, kind of an annoying way of speaking, but honestly does a lot for the UFO community the best he can. He released a bunch of photos that were supposedly taken by the Navy.
Starting point is 00:01:30 A lot of triangle-shaped UFOs, upside-down bell-shaped UFOs. And recently, as of when was this posted? Six days, oh, two days ago, the Navy actually, the Pentagon, rather, actually confirmed that those are indeed pictures taken by the Navy. I'll read a little article here off of Disclose.tv, one of my favorite places to go. A U.S. Navy destroyer supposedly taken incredible photos, incredible video footage.
Starting point is 00:01:59 A video shows several pyramid-shaped UFOs swarming above the ship at night. The leaked video was just recently shared on social media. Filmmaker Jeremy Corbel was anonymously sent the baffling video back in July of 2019, as well as detailed information on an alleged intelligence briefing conducted by the Pentagon into an unidentified aerial phenomenon. I can confirm that the referenced photos and videos were taken by Navy personnel. The UAPTF has included these incidents in their ongoing examination, said Susan Gao, Pentagon Spokesperson.
Starting point is 00:02:32 Your words are hard, Spokesperson. You got it. Goddamn. Nailed it, locked it down. Fuck. As we have said before, to maintain operation security and to avoid disclosing information that may be useful to potential adversaries, the Department of Defense does not discuss publicly the details
Starting point is 00:02:47 of either the observation or the examinations of reported incursions into our training ranges or designated airspace, including those incursions initially designed as AUAP. That's it. That's really the story. You can go take a look at it. It's like any other photo. They're really hard to tell.
Starting point is 00:03:03 They're triangles. Yeah, little triangles, pyramid-shaped stuff. Interesting. Another confirmation. Apparently the way the Navy does it is that they'll get like a lot of hits on their radar and they'll literally send somebody out on the deck with a camera to start taking pictures to try and get photos of them because they can never like really keep good track of them otherwise. More fascinating stuff, man.
Starting point is 00:03:25 More, more fascinating UAP stuff. One day, one day, the Greys will step onto these green Earth and extend their arm in peace. And I will say, thank God, and I will join them. Keep Earth green for the Greys, guys. Keep Earth green for the Greys. They need it. They need it when they colonize.
Starting point is 00:03:42 No, they're not going to colonize. We're going to integrate. They're going to come collect us and collect data so that they may iterate upon us once again. Listen, Greys are the ones with the jerk-off machines. That's all I need. Yeah, take me to your leader. That's what I'm saying.
Starting point is 00:03:59 Just take me there. Just take me there. Strat me up and just install it and I'll be good. Engage. There are four lights. There are four poles. Terrible. Absolutely terrible.
Starting point is 00:04:18 Sign me the fuck up. All right. That's all I got for my little story, boys. Speaking of old British guys. This is the worst segue of all time. Prince Philip recently passed away. Prince Philip of, you know, English fame.
Starting point is 00:04:37 Internet fame. All right. How old was he? International fame, 99 years old. Dude looked just like he was at death's door for a while. I feel like it's probably relieved to a lot of the people close to him that he's finally just passed on to the other side, you know, peacefully.
Starting point is 00:04:51 Is that true? I don't know. Sometimes taking care of old people can be really hard, you know? I imagine have a lot of money. I mean, he is Prince Philip. You know, before he was famous for looking like a zombie or something.
Starting point is 00:05:06 He married his cousin. Yeah. Well, he was just known in general for being sort of like sort of wild off the cuff kind of guy, especially in quotes and media. The article I have here is from Mental Floss and the thing that they bring up is one time he told a kid that a kid said he wanted to be,
Starting point is 00:05:27 travel space in his dreams. And Prince Philip told him he was too fat to be an astronaut. But lots of people are very broke up about his death. No one said that he was like a good dude. I'm not trying to render it. Can I just give you a couple of quotes from him from his past? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:05:47 He was a good one. When a man opens a door, when a man opens a car door for his wife, it's either a new car or a new wife. We don't come to Canada for our health. We can think of other ways of enjoying ourselves. I don't think a prostitute is more moral than a wife, but they are doing the same thing.
Starting point is 00:06:03 It's like Einstein levels of disappointing opinions about women. Jesus Christ. But, you know, I'm not trying to render a judgment on him today. That's not why we're here. I promised in the episode that I was going to tell you something about Prince Philip that you maybe didn't know about. And I think this is perfect because it's so nuts that this exists. But there is a Pacific Island nation of called Vanuatu.
Starting point is 00:06:31 And there is an, you know, I'm doing my best here with these pronunciations. That's very good. But there is a village called Yao Nanen on the Pacific Island nation of Vanuatu. And on this island, Prince Philip was not just Prince Philip, the husband of Queen Elizabeth. He was like a God that there was a whole religion based around
Starting point is 00:06:59 starting in the 60s. That was called the Prince Philip movement. And they believe that Prince Philip was born to fulfill an ancient prophecy. And that he was the son of an ancient mountain spirit that would one day take the form of a pale skinned man, travel abroad, marry a powerful woman, and eventually return home to the island.
Starting point is 00:07:22 And they decided that it was Prince Philip who was this person. And so when he arrived. Was he was Royal Navy? Is that right? He was Royal something. Yeah. Before he became like a consort is what he was really.
Starting point is 00:07:38 Yeah. He just like is, you know, I mean, if you look at the British monarchy and you think like that is the, you know, the end of a line that started hundreds of years ago. You know what I mean? Like if you compare it to those things and you're like a small island nation, you don't really have the context
Starting point is 00:07:54 culture for what people think of the British Royal family in modern times, you know, you know, you think about him like a prince, like a prince from a far away land, right? And you've gone with for your God to meet that particular criteria. Yeah. So he actually married a powerful woman. I know, right? He actually came to the island in 1974.
Starting point is 00:08:16 Chief, Chief Jack Niva, who is like a warrior chief. He greeted the Royal yacht. He saw Philip on board and the quote is, I saw him standing on the deck in his white uniform. I knew then that he was the true Messiah. And they believe that a lot of what goes on in the world is because of Prince Philip. They claimed that Barack Obama, a black man becoming president
Starting point is 00:08:46 of the United States was thanks to Prince Philip. They felt like Prince Philip's magic helped Obama find Osama bin Laden. And they even sent Prince Philip a now now one time, which is a club for killing pigs. And he sent them back a pic of himself just being like, check it out. I got this thing holding it back to them. The picture is in a shrine in Vanuatu that has other photos. It has the Union flag.
Starting point is 00:09:20 And in 2017, right after Prince Philip announced that he was retiring, there was a cyclone that came and threatened the island. But they don't consider it so much a threat as they consider it like the powers of nature. Getting excited that Prince Philip is going to return home to their island soon because he is from there in their mind, right? All right, right. The spirit is from there and they took the form of Prince Philip.
Starting point is 00:09:50 The spirit got so excited through a ranger as a cyclone. Right. So I'm sure you're probably thinking like now that Prince Philip is dead, like what happened to these people? And news got to them on April 9th that Prince Philip died. And Jean Pascal Wahey of the Vanuatu Cultural Center said that the islanders believe Prince Philip's spirit will now come to Tana, which I believe is returning to the island.
Starting point is 00:10:23 And until then, the group is now just going to move on and they're going to now worship Charles instead. Prince Charles is going to be the new avatar now. Yeah. Oh, OK. Dude, I could be the new avatar. I'm pale. You want to be the deity of this island?
Starting point is 00:10:45 Dude, I want to be a deity of any island. That just sounds like a sweet gig. I feel like the 3PO got to become like king of like the Ewoks. You know, but it only worked for him because he wasn't affected by the pressure. Yeah. Come on, man. Remember, you got to be worshipped and you got to make him do things. Day Toa.
Starting point is 00:11:03 Yeah. Yeah. That's what I want. That's what I want in my life. Yeah. They don't mean too much pressure. But anyway, super weird fucking thing. There's an island that's like a cult of Prince Philip
Starting point is 00:11:15 that they believe he's God. It's insane. And now it's Prince Charles. Well, shit, at least I'm pretty harmless. Yeah. All right, Jesse. All right. Well, this one is a topic thanks to and shout out to all the amazing people over on Reddit
Starting point is 00:11:36 for us who are on the Chiluminati subreddit. This was posted. It is from I assume someone's Facebook. And I'm just going to read what it says because here's what's going on. Apparently, and point plus in West Virginia around the Mothman statue. And I'm just going to read this from Dusty Morrison. I can't believe I have to keep saying this, but please, please. T O P leaving beans at the Mothman statue.
Starting point is 00:12:14 My father-in-law is getting calls from the mayor and your donation to our local deity of another dimensional plane. Well, he would rather you give them to the homeless shelter just up the road in his honor. Y'all look out for one another hashtag Mothman hashtag point plus in West Virginia. Yeah, I saw this. This is amazing. Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, people are leaving plans of baked beans around the Mothman's that now I'm just going to send you this image.
Starting point is 00:12:41 This is this is the image. People are leaving baked beans right near the Mothman. What? No, that cannot. Now I am going to I'm going to give this one to our investigators over on Reddit because everyone was like, hold on, did the boys cause this to happen? Well, a lot of people get on this, but I'm going to give orange tiny hands a shout out here.
Starting point is 00:13:06 It's fallout 76 related beans are the consumer food in the Appalachia region and there's a fictional cult following in the year in the future year of 2077 within the game who worship Mothman as a divine being of their high powered sect beliefs. So they offer beans their only consistent food and life supporting nutritional source in the Appalachian region of the game as a sacrifice their sect of beliefs regarding Mothman as their divine high power. So there you go. Great.
Starting point is 00:13:38 Yeah. All right. For a minute, though, imagine if it was because of the Boston big boy. Imagine. Imagine. Imagine. If you live in Point Pleasant, forget about the canned beans. It's all about the box of beans that looks like a brick wall.
Starting point is 00:13:52 Yep. With a little window inside so you can see those candy coated peanuts. Yep. They're not even beans. That's the thing about Boston baked beans. They're not that good either, which just disappointed me. Yeah. I expected an M&M style coating.
Starting point is 00:14:06 What I got was a nasty coating. It's really like. Yes. That gross like semi-crunching texture. No good. No good. Not a fan. Also, can we talk about how the Mothman looks like he's fucking glowing in this picture?
Starting point is 00:14:21 Like what the fuck is going on? Yeah. I think it's the reflection of a window that the person's probably taken the picture from. Maybe. I've got to get to this fucking statue. Okay. Hang on. That is definitely looks like a computer monitor reflecting off of the window that they're
Starting point is 00:14:36 clearly standing behind. Do you live right there? No, you can just tell. You can see like. I mean, like, dude, whoever took this picture, like, are you like a business nearby? Maybe. I've never been there. We've got to go.
Starting point is 00:14:50 Yeah. I will touch the statues from metal behind. I promise. Okay. So once we're all vaccinated, I still have to get my car from where I once lived to where I now live. Yes. If you still want to do that road trip.
Starting point is 00:15:06 I'm down, dude. We can. We can make it a detour. I'm Virginia. I'm at Max efficacy, baby. I'm saying, man, take a couple of days, take a real true road trip. I can't be touched. It'll be good times.

Starting point is 00:16:43 Welcome back. Chillumini 40, whatever. I don't know where we are anymore dude. I have no idea. I don't even know where I'm located physically right now dude. Just don't know. I'm just a number in the equation of life. Dude, I'm scrolling down the medical physical plane of my safari browsing windows.
Starting point is 00:17:00 My dude inside my medulla oblongata. Listen man, I live in Texas now. Like this is like UFO central. Every night I look up at the sky. Not a damn thing yet. Not a god damn thing yet. You feel like you because you're remote now you should be. Is it creepy outside yet?

Starting point is 00:17:36 and force you to walk out in the woods by yourself at night. Oh yeah dude. You kidding me though? I would mostly do that without fear. I mean I would still have a little fear but mostly without fear. Do you remember MTV's fear? Cause that's what it would be like. Oh my god.
Starting point is 00:17:50 Yeah. I had to get it. I had a torrent of that back in the day. That is a fucking great show. What are you talking about? MTV's fear was garbage. It was a garbage show. No, I can't say it was.
Starting point is 00:18:04 Welcome back to The Chill Mini. I got a reader story today everybody. Do you want me to just crack open with the reader story? I mean I have a new story. All right. This one is actually relatively fresh. It's really short. It's called The Tripod Creature by our user Jay Slangenstein.
Starting point is 00:18:23 That's what they call me. You know what I'm saying? Jay Slangenstein. Jay Slangenstein. The Tripod Creature. That's what you are. The Tripod Creature's name is Jay Slangenstein. Right.
Starting point is 00:18:34 Yeah, yeah. That's what I'm thinking. That's what I like for it. I am a skeptic of all things paranormal and usually people come up with some rational explanations for a weird happening pretty quickly after hearing it. That doesn't stop me from loving, getting wrapped up in the stories and mysteries that the pod puts forth or watching hundreds. Watch for hundreds.
Starting point is 00:18:54 I just inserted that word. That word wasn't even in the sentence. I put it there. Watching hundreds of hours of UFO documentaries. Yeah, I wish. Or watching hours long documentaries on the paranormal. I'm also a Methodist minister, so I cannot claim to be a wholly empirical thinker of visa v supernatural occurrences.
Starting point is 00:19:11 It was about a month before the pandemic when my wife also a minister and I were driving to a dinner to celebrate our recent marriage that we both saw something that shook us to the core. Question. Answer. Before we get to shook to the core. Uh huh. Where did you meet?
Starting point is 00:19:27 I need this information updated on the Reddit. Where did you meet? How did two ministers meet? Second, were you ministers before you met? Third, who marries two ministers? Great questions. Ooh, good question. The third one.
Starting point is 00:19:41 Yeah, I need to know. I need to know these things. Hit me back. What would we call a minister only dating app? What would you call a minister only dating app? That's my question. You boys. Collared.
Starting point is 00:19:52 Collared. Done. Bravo. That's a million dollar idea right there. Did you hear that? God, that's why we pay you the beating off my hands. Nice. Anyway, they were driving down to celebrate dinner, marriage, blah, blah, blah.
Starting point is 00:20:06 They saw something that shook us to their core. We were driving down a country road round about five o'clock, talking about something inconsequential. Then we saw it. Both of us stopped talking immediately. And the few seconds it was there seemed to drag into minutes. There in a clearing amongst the trees was some kind of monster. We reported it as slightly different looking.
Starting point is 00:20:30 My wife saw a tall black creature with strangely angled legs. I saw a three legged creature with a long neck that seemed a little too long as it stretched into the air. We were at slightly different angles, so no such differences. So such differences can be expected. It was pure black and seemed to be smooth all over its body. It had no discernible head and only moved slightly like a tree in the wind. It seemed like something out of sport.
Starting point is 00:20:57 What a great game, by the way. Sport was great. It seemed like something out of sport. Those creatures were never meant to be made real. Agreed, but they were still great. An animal cobbled together out of the imagination of a teenager working with clay. It didn't seem threatening, but it still scared us to death to see something so unnatural standing in the woods. We looked at it as long as we could without adjusting the speed of our car.
Starting point is 00:21:23 I would hate to see this thing ambulating. And just before it was out of sight, the thing jerked up and revealed what it really was. It was a woman in her 40s or 50s in a black sweatsuit picking up a frisbee. We were able to describe the limb difference my wife and I saw by the fact I could see her reaching down, and my wife only saw her back. The weird angle she stood at was her holding up one arm for balance and forming a tripod with her arm and legs otherwise. We reflected later that if we had been going just a bit faster,
Starting point is 00:21:55 we would probably have only seen her as the strange monster we saw on the back road that day. At least it was fucking something, man. Right? Even now, we will sometimes confess to each other that we think we are going to see the monster off in the distance, even knowing it was a trick of the eyes. It is much easier for me to empathize with some of the stories I hear of monster sightings having had something like this happen in my own life. So there it is.
Starting point is 00:22:17 No big mystery, but still an image I can never forget of a monster I'll always be looking out for. Beware the tripod. It's probably faster than you think. I will say also, seeing an unexplainable creature, even if it's fake in this case, it's not, it's a mistake, but being in that moment where you're like, what the fuck is that? Do you see that? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:22:38 Bonded. Yep. Bonded. That marriage will last forever. I'm just, I mean, I'm not trying to... Luminati approved. You know, I'm just saying anyone. You will remember that for the rest of your life.
Starting point is 00:22:50 I don't know. It's true. Man, that's the difference between like me and a lot of, I would have been like, stop the car. We got to go look. We got to see what the hell this thing. I would have died that day. The tripod would have killed my ass. It would have taken me an hour,
Starting point is 00:23:03 but I eventually probably would have decided to go over it. I would have been like, stop the car. We need to go see this. I, man, I'd probably be too scared, honestly. You'd be too scared? I'd be like, go boys. Yeah, unless you were there with me. What if you might get powers from that?
Starting point is 00:23:21 What if you become the Elliot? No, you get impaled by the tripod. The tripod stabs you right in the chest and you're dead. Do you think you're too old to be the Elliot? Mathis is from 100% the Elliot. Mathis is like, what if you're the guy who's like, no, you'll hurt him. Yeah, I've got to get him back to his ship.
Starting point is 00:23:40 He says E.T. is like, E.T. photo dude. What is it? All right. And I'll be the delightful Drew Perrymore. Obviously. The world made for you. I'll be like Reese's Pieces.
Starting point is 00:23:59 Alex, what did you bring us, brother? I brought us a popular French cryptid sighting that occurred in Poland recently. This is totally crazy. A woman in Krakow, Poland, she looked out her window and she saw something hanging in the lilac tree outside of her house for like several days.
Starting point is 00:24:21 Days? Yeah, people were freaking out. They were closing their windows because they were worried that whatever it was in the tree was going to fly in and bother them. It had this sort of like oblong brown body, sort of like alternating in colors between dark and light brown up and down,
Starting point is 00:24:40 but no visible head, no visible limbs. So they sent out the cops to go see what it was and it was just sitting there in the lilac tree and everybody had seen it and it was just giving off a threatening aura and the cops got up close and it turned out to be a croissant that somebody had thrown into a tree to feed the birds.
Starting point is 00:25:03 These are great stories today, man. I'm one of the tripod monster, the croissant cryptid, crypt-saunt? Crypt-saunt? It's a French cryptid that you, you know. Grybson? Grybson. That's amazing.
Starting point is 00:25:16 It looks like a pretty hearty croissant. I don't know if you guys have seen this. I have no idea how to link this poster, this picture to you, Rob, but I'll send you the, I'll send you the article and you guys can see it. It's, it's a hearty, hearty, it's like one of those grocery store croissants.
Starting point is 00:25:31 You know what I'm talking about? This is not a croissant. You know? Like the kind that would make a, like a French person would be sad about this croissant. Yeah. I'm looking at the picture and honestly from a distance, it looks like a zirgling from far away.
Starting point is 00:25:42 It looks like some type of like cocoon. Mothra baby pupa. A Mothman child. But really it's just like a craft services level. It is. But you were right. You were right, Alex. This is a chunky croissant.
Starting point is 00:25:57 It's a big boy. Yeah. It's a large boy. That'd be at least like 20 minutes for me to eat. Yeah. Yeah. I could put it away still really much faster than that. That's another great, great story with a real ending.
Starting point is 00:26:10 Jesse. Let me give you some real story. Okay. Let me give you a real story that actually has a real ending. So actually it doesn't. Never mind. It's also a croissant. So a study was just done recently about human communication
Starting point is 00:26:27 and how we communicate. And the focus of it was screams and how the human brain comprehends different screams. And so a test was done where they brought a bunch of people in. I think it was like 12 participants were brought in to shout in different ways. So they would say like, you're being attacked by an armed stranger.
Starting point is 00:26:48 Go or your favorite team won the World Cup. Go or, you know, like all these different things. And then they were like, we need one for pain, anger, pleasure, sadness, joy, and then a neutral. Right. And that's, that's what they did. And so they brought in all these other people to listen to these screams and they were like, okay, we would like you to
Starting point is 00:27:09 categorize them into one or seven different scream categories. So we're going to play you two at a time. Three categories. We're playing two at a time. And we want you to recognize. All right. This scream you're hearing. Is it one of anger or fear or pain or is it like a pleasure
Starting point is 00:27:27 scream or is it sadness or joy? And what they discovered is it takes people longer to categorize fear and alarm screams, things like that. Meanwhile, pleasure and joy, incredibly easy. They immediately knew where to categorize those. Like just the way it sounds, they knew. And so then they brought in more people and they were like, all right, let's scan the brain while we do this.
Starting point is 00:27:53 Like let's scan, like what's going on. And when there was less alarming screens, the brain activity was like, we immediately recognize what like not terrified sounds like. And so the thought process is like, first off, we don't necessarily know how different people scream or alert us of danger unlike animals where they immediately know there's like a call for danger and like herds of animals, right?
Starting point is 00:28:21 They're all like, yeah. Yeah. You can't see it, but I did the deer thing. Yeah. Because different cultures and different ways people expect, you know, but what we do know is that we recognize immediately when something is good. So even though we may not necessarily know what that
Starting point is 00:28:37 terrified scream was about, we recognize it as not being a good scream, which is why we're immediately alerted. When good screams were like, oh, I know what that is. Like it doesn't even phase us. We're like, oh man. All right. Someone's team just wanted. They're cheering.
Starting point is 00:28:51 Oh yeah. Yeah. Compared to like, in which case, you know, there's a lot of times where you're, especially in LA, you'll walk down the street and those hear someone like guttural scream and you're like, I don't know if that was real or if someone just goofing and you're like, don't know what to do. And there's like a weird noise.
Starting point is 00:29:08 And you're like, what the hell was that? It just could be a person on the street. You have no clue. And so you don't know how to interact with it. But if it's like, yeah, you're just like, all right, I'll have my day. And I thought that was like super interesting that we're looking into it and sort of studying all the different
Starting point is 00:29:23 things that, you know, the ways humans communicate with each other. And how the brain interprets just different sounds is fascinating in and of itself. I love the idea that they brought the MRI and they were like, oh yeah, the brain knows immediately when it's not terrifying. It's like, oh yeah, no, that's good. You're fine.
Starting point is 00:29:40 You don't even think about it. You're like, no, that's a good scream. Don't worry. I mean, I think about every time that I've ever been in a situation where something horrific occurred and almost every time the thing that took me off was like a blood curdling scream, like one person either scream or like a gasp, like a and sharp kind of alarming noise coming out of

Starting point is 00:31:33 That's D-R-I-Z-L-Y.com today. I don't know. I'm a little Jill Luminaz. Welcome to the Chill Mini. I didn't say sync. I said brap. I don't know if that matters. I'll just make a note of it.
Starting point is 00:31:49 That'll be perfect. Welcome. Our patrons over at patreon.com. That's a great website, isn't it? Isn't it fantastic? hion.com. slash chilluminati pod. You're still in a way that people already have agreed to be here.
Starting point is 00:32:04 If you're there, you're here. That's what they say. That's what they say. Any sort of compilation, like six months from now. Yeah, this is for you guys in the six months. Hey, hopefully it's better, you know? And what way to celebrate this end of this horrible time? We won't be here in six months.
Starting point is 00:32:16 Why are you? Why do this? Let us know what actually happened once we let the Egyptian episode come out. Tell us what happened afterwards. Let us know what you thought of how we were punished for that. Unlike our very well-structured and researched previous full episode Crandor, this is much less structured. We are just, we're just going to talk about some wild shit that's happening out in the
Starting point is 00:32:40 world right now or some reader stories, which you will be reading one. But I'm going to hand it to Alex first, because Alex seems very excited. Yeah. Okay. So warning on this one. Chilaminati sometimes is not just a paranormal podcast, but also a true crime podcast. So I saw this headline and I could not go past it because it is just too fucked up. This guy, this, this article is from just five days ago, but it is from a, it happened
Starting point is 00:33:12 in February of 2019. In Spain, there is a man in Ventus, Ventus Spain, Ventos. I don't know. I'm ignorant to how to say the names of places in Spain. Isn't that a Kingdom Hearts character? Probably. He's probably like the inside version of another Kingdom Hearts character. But they, they got, police got a call from a friend of a 69 year old lady and they got
Starting point is 00:33:46 worried because this guy, like that, that she was worried because the son who's 26 and, and his mother always get in, in fights, like all the time the police even knew about it. And so a neighbor called him and was like, they're having another one and I haven't heard anything in a little while, but I just want you to go check on them. And when they got there, they found body parts all over the apartment. Some were in plastic containers. Some were just on the ground on, on this counter. And apparently what happened was he got in a fight with his mom, strangled her to death
Starting point is 00:34:24 and then decided he was going to dismember her to hide the body. You know, like a lot of people who kill people do. But instead he said he blacked out and he just started eating her. And for 15 days, he ate and ate and ate and stored, stored pieces of her around the house in the fridge and stuff. They, he blacked out for 15 days. He said he had a personality disorder and he was on drugs and he went insane and he started eating his dead mom to get rid of her.
Starting point is 00:35:01 And when the dog will wait like three days, I know. And when they showed up, some of the meat was actually in the process of being cooked. Like he was cooking when they got there. And also like a different Dahmer apartment. Yeah. And some, some of the food was also food. Some of the lady was also fed to a dog. Oh my God.
Starting point is 00:35:27 I don't know if it was her dog or not, but this dude straight up ate his mom. But the whole reason that I decided to bring this to is because at the end of the article that I read, which is on adi.com with his website for strange news stories, Emily Rocky. I believe that's how you pronounce the name. I don't know. At the end of the article, the sign off is Gomez was 26. The time of the murder and arrest. He did confess to strangling his mother.
Starting point is 00:35:59 How much time do you think he should get? RIP Mama Gomez. Oh my God. RIP Mama Gomez is how the article ends with no punctuation. You were real one, Mama Gomez. Yeah. Shout outs to Mama Gomez. She's out there and she's in there.
Starting point is 00:36:15 She's everywhere. Can I counter that story please with something a little better? I just want to jump out the gate with a dude ate his mom and then fence. I have a story that I think. I think this is pretty good one. So in Berlin at the end of April, German police bomb squad was called to investigate a hand grenade found in a Bavarian forest. A jogger croissant, a jogger reportedly finding a bag containing a hand grenade.
Starting point is 00:36:50 Oh shit. Was found in the forest outside of the city of Passau. Passau. Whatever the German version of Passau is. Germany's borders with Austria and the Czech Republic. The discovery of forgotten or hidden munitions. It's still regular there. Apparently it happens in the forest all the time because of World War Two and I guess it's
Starting point is 00:37:14 like a thing. And so they were worried that it was a World War Two era grenade. And so the bomb squad was called out there. And when they arrived, they noticed that the bag was shaped just like a like old school German grenade. And so when they went up to the bag, they got all their like equipment on like the one from like Medal of Honor. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:37:38 The one that's kind of like long and has like the big long handle. And so they they're like, all right, well, let's go in there. So they put all their equipment on. They walked up to the bag. They opened the bag. Oh God. What was inside was a giant rubber sex toy. Nice.
Starting point is 00:37:57 Like a butt plug. Also included in the bag were condoms and lubricant. And they they did an internet search and confirmed that in fact here's the best part. The reason why it looked like a hand grenade is because and I quote, they're actually sex toys that look like hand grenades. So it's dead ass. A like B-hole grenade. I guess.
Starting point is 00:38:26 Like a rubber B-hole grenade. I guess. And it was in a bag in the woods. I love that. Someone was like, I'm never going to use this again and toss it in the woods. There you go. Everything about the like way you got to talk about that in a sexy situation. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:38:44 I love the idea that people bust out the grenade. You know, I want to know if you can pin out the grenade. Yeah. Like explode. There's so much you can do with that. I was curious as to like what you could possibly use something shaped like a grenade for and I googled it and now I understand that I don't really want to understand. Oh my God.
Starting point is 00:39:11 So incredible. All right. Well, my story is pretty far. Like you probably could. Yeah. Yeah. It's got that shape. So my article comes from April 29th, 2021.
Starting point is 00:39:25 More amazing truth to be had. UFO lands in Bolivian village and releases Jupiter like creature. Oh, shit. This is not coast to coast. That's why I should get my news from now on. Yes, you should. This is like the 1998 Godzilla movie where like halfway through the movie, they're like, Godzilla also has a bunch of raptors that are also Godzilla.
Starting point is 00:39:48 A little raptor baby eggs. The one of the few movies I actually have seen. Really? You saw. Yes. Godfather. Forget about it. Godzilla 98.
Starting point is 00:39:58 Matthew Broderick in this area. John Renault. Matthew Broderick. Unmissible. Had on VHS. Yeah, man. Matthew Broderick. I remember the mall scene running around to get to the parking garage.
Starting point is 00:40:10 Yeah. Anyway. Residents of a village in Bolivia claimed to have witnessed a UFO landing where in the craft subsequently released a chupacabra like creature into their community. The very strange incident reportedly occurred in the town of Manteo Agudo. Earlier this month, when observers first spotted a puzzling halo of light appear in the sky and then descend to the ground. There was a crash like thunder.
Starting point is 00:40:34 We're called Bolivian UFO researcher Javier Alagia, who indicated that the object appeared to be throwing fire. Things took an even weirder turn when those on the scene saw some kind of entity exit the craft. According to witnesses, this interstellar interloper stood approximately one foot tall and supported three fingers on each of his hands. It's the driveway. What a cutie pie.
Starting point is 00:40:58 He holds up his three-fingered hands and he makes an O with his mouth and it says wow. One foot tall? One foot tall? What a cutie pie. What a cutie pie. If I got abducted by those guys, I'd be so happy. I'd be like, oh, you cuties. Man, they could probably pack a punch, dude.
Starting point is 00:41:24 Yeah, man. I like those mini-alligators. You ever see those mini-crocodile alligator things? They'll rip your fucking fingers off. I'm not going to say my finger in Ali's mouth unless... Dude, have you seen Prometheus? Yeah. I mean, sometimes.
Starting point is 00:41:39 Anyway, the mysterious visitor is also said to have possessed very large eyes, yet was unable to see, although how exactly that was determined is uncertain. He kept hitting his head. That's a fucked up detail. He had eyes, but he can't see. What? And he's one foot tall? How do you know?
Starting point is 00:41:58 What are you talking about? Three fingers? Upon exiting the craft, concerned residents claim the oddity proceeded to wander the streets frightening children who were watching this all unfold. Just a one foot tall alien. What the hell? We're taking anyone in the town as a dolly. What is that dolly?
Starting point is 00:42:14 This guy. No. The creature looks many like into the legendary chupacabra. This is the creature that they're assuming is the chupacabra for some reason. A little one foot tall? Key point? Yeah. A little stitch.
Starting point is 00:42:28 Let me ask you a question. He's one foot tall. What percentage of one foot? One foot? What's 12 inches? What percentage is this? That's like my head from the bottom of my beard says the top of my forehead. How big is his head compared to the other one?
Starting point is 00:42:46 One foot tall. One foot tall. They don't say. They don't say. They're not that tall. His head's two, three inches. Yeah, I don't understand how this creature worked. It was only one foot tall.
Starting point is 00:42:58 Why did nobody run up to him and like boot it and kick it as it's terrorizing children in the streets? I would have been like, do not kick him. That is too much. I would have been like, hit this little dude. Let's get some pizza. Yeah. Take this.
Starting point is 00:43:14 Just take a try. Oh, that's no nice. The creature which many like into the legendary chupacabra. Eventually vanished into the night and the craft that appeared to deliver to Earth also disappeared. All that was left behind from the case were some curious impressions on the ground and several shaken residents. And a light sheen of alien semen. Blanket in the countryside.
Starting point is 00:43:34 That's how you know. To that end, Aliaga has understandably called for a scientific investigation into the matter. But whether such an undertaking occurs seems doubtful. That said, the incident was intriguing enough that it was covered on the Telemundo program. Al Rojo Vivo, which interviewed witnesses and some of the drawings of the creatures. God. Al Rojo Vivo. Al Rojo Vivo.
Starting point is 00:44:01 Yeah. No, I get it. I get it. I get it. Arv. Got it. Arv. Alien.
Starting point is 00:44:09 Maybe. Let's see. What's taking it? Yeah. So that's about it. They interviewed some witnesses and some of the drawings of the creature, as well as the markings purportedly left behind by the UFO. If I spoke Spanish, I believe in aliens more, I think, because the title of one of their
Starting point is 00:44:28 pieces on aliens is Enigma Extraterrestre? I'd be like, yeah. All right. I believe. I love it. It just sounds so good. That was my article, man. I thought it was great.
Starting point is 00:44:44 How did nobody just grab a little iPhone shot of that little chupacabra homie or fucking kick it in the head and keep it for yourself? How is that a chupacabra? Whatever. It doesn't matter. I don't know. What is the name of the city? It sounds like the chupacabra to me.
Starting point is 00:44:57 The name of the city was, hang on. I got to find it. Monte M-O-N-T-E-A-G-U-D-O. A-G-U-D-O. Monte Agudo. Man, I don't even see anything on it. The government already covered it up. That's gone, dude.
Starting point is 00:45:16 Oval-headed alien stuns residents of Bolivian City. Is that what you have? There you go. No, mine's UFO lands in Bolivian Village and releases chupacabra-like creature. 30 centimeters tall. He's a tiny pet. What are they talking about, man? God, I got to see a clip of that.
Starting point is 00:45:36 God damn it. I'm trying to find it. I can't find it. Maybe I'm doing it like anytime. When was this article? April 29th, just a few days ago. I found an article, but there's no video. I got to find that shit.
Starting point is 00:45:54 But we'll move on to the last thing. Crandor is going to read a reader's story that was posted today up on the subreddit. So, Crandor, you can take it away. Oh, there it is. Okay. Yeah, you got this. I believe it. I got it.
Starting point is 00:46:08 All right. The door in the sky. Free to use on podcast. Hi. Hi, pod boys. Long time listener and viewer of each of you fine gentlemen's content over the years. I'd be honored to have this appear on the pod, but if not, that's cool. I'm more than happy to shout out into the void.
Starting point is 00:46:28 I like this person already. Right? I'm very much a skeptic. Obviously, it's fun to explore the paranormal and supernatural. Down to get weird with it. But until a ghost flings me across the room or an alien lanes in front of me to jerk me off or kill me. Oh my God. No, I get it.
Starting point is 00:46:45 I have to see it. This is Jesse's shadow. This is what this is. I have to see it to believe it. And I absolutely saw something which is incredibly bizarre. Onto the story. It was November, December, 2019. And I was working the evening shift 4pm to 9pm at a fairly large holiday resort in the UK.
Starting point is 00:47:04 It was peak season. I'd been rushed off my feet all shift. There's a retail shift left alone, no break and working by myself with lines out the door. Needless to say, I was tired and could not wait to get home. Ever so slowly, 9pm came and I eagerly closed down the venue while the team leader cashed the register and I returned, as expected. It was code 10. I don't know about other chains or stores, but for us a code 10 is when there's a large amount of cash in the register. It's 500 pounds plus and requires a call to security to be escorted to the safe just in case either I either I tried to steal it or someone tried to rob me on the walkover.
Starting point is 00:47:45 It was a regular occurrence, so I wasn't surprised. What was surprising, however, was security taking an hour and a half to finally arrive. Skipping forward, I arrive home at 11pm, kick out my work shoes, shuffle into some more casual wear. While doing so, I absentmindedly put my phone on charge. I live with my brother and as he has done so earlier in the day, it was my turn to walk our wonderful dog Rosie. Can I just say, I want to butt in quickly to just say that I appreciate which details this writer chooses to leave in this story. Some of them have in no way influenced the action at all, but it gives me such a clear picture of this person. I love it.
Starting point is 00:48:25 I'm in your home with you right now. Spheric formula. We're there with you. Shout out to Spheric. I briefly considered bringing my phone as I'd usually listen to music on the walk instead opting to just enjoy some peace and quiet. I very much wish I had taken my phone. I live in a tourist trap in the southwest of England, so the park isn't really that impressive. It's effectively a field with a little fence play area for kids, some swings opposite the entrance to the park, a couple of benches and some scattered trees.
Starting point is 00:48:53 The very big tree at the entrance surrounding the park are bungalows and assisted living home in various houses. It's a less than five minute walk from my flat and it was drizzling rain. So I arrived even quicker. There are two streetlights in the park. One at the entrance, one at the corner of the kids play area. So when you're not standing under them, it's pretty damn dark on my walk. I went down one loop and arrived back to kids play area directly under the streetlight. My eyes traveled up and I stopped bed.
Starting point is 00:49:20 There's slight cloud cover, but in a small part of clear sky, roughly 30 to 40 feet up, I see a door in the sky. What? Wait, what? I love it. It's giving me skin walker ranch vibes. Yes. It was a four-panel oaken door with a darker shade of brown. It had a creamy white door frame with a black door knob on the left-hand side.
Starting point is 00:49:44 The door was almost angled towards me as if I were staring at a door head-on rather than be upright. When I regained my senses, I thrust my hand into my pocket. All I discovered, of course, I'd left my phone at home. I knew straight away that looking up, upon looking away, the twilight zone-ass looking door would vanish and never to be seen again. So I took it upon myself to study the door and commit everything to my memory. I was trains fixed after it was probably 30 seconds. My dog whined and broke me out of my stupor head-snapping to check on her. There she was, tail wagging, looking up at me.
Starting point is 00:50:16 I look back up and the door is gone. I rushed back home and unloaded my experience in my brother who reasonably raised his eyebrows and we agreed it was probably a trick-a-lite. But was it? Was there an interdimensional door that appeared before me to take me on forays into the unknown? Perhaps a glitch in the matrix, or maybe a funny little gray was about to make an appearance? Or was it just that my admittedly tired brain filled the gaps in the dark rainy evening by looking at the right point at the right time? Who's to say? If you've taken the time to read all this, thank you very much.
Starting point is 00:50:48 I've been thinking about posting for a while, I've been hesitant, but here we are. Much love to the pod. You guys are doing fantastic work, especially Crendor. Love and respect, Spirit. I know! The door told me. I wish he had reached for the door and opened it. Can I tell you something?
Starting point is 00:51:05 You may not be here to write that story if you did, but- Because of your story, I was so intently listening to Crendor that I was looking at him. But halfway through, boy, I am going to admit something here that I, hopefully Alex is going to back me up. Halfway through that story, I looked up at Mathis and forgot which one was Mathis and which one was Crendor. I like, honest to God, I looked up and was like, did they switch places? The two of you are both wearing a blue shirt. You look very similar. Really?
Starting point is 00:51:39 Really in a similar zone? Yes, yes! They're very similar. Their mics are coming at the exact same- You look so similar right now. It is blowing right into their face. Crendor, if you can put your hands behind your back and just face the same direction. Now face a little bit towards-
Starting point is 00:51:55 Like, now look at where Mathis is looking the other direction. The total other direction. No one can see this. This is blowing my mind. I'm going to print screen. It's freaking out right now. I printed the screen. I was watching Crendor talk and then looked up at Mathis and was like, why aren't his lips moving?
Starting point is 00:52:19 I had a moment. I had like a senior moment. If you would have come to me, I would have been like, are you my son? I honestly went crazy. Wow. But, speak of crazy. Gentlemen, I'm about to give you the best link ever. Because I could not let the story of that little tiny alien boy go unfound.
Starting point is 00:52:43 I have found for you- Oh, that link did not link. I have found for you the actual proof. The actual story from Telemundo. Featuring the art of the alien at 30 seconds, it is perfect. It is exactly what I want that alien to look like. Oh my God, please. Oh my God, there's a 30 second ad before it.
Starting point is 00:53:14 Yeah, I gotta wait. Exactly. It is all in Spanish, but none of it matters. Because at 30 seconds in, a boy has drawn the alien. And I cannot stress, it is exactly the alien that I pictured. I cannot wait to- It is perfect. Just-
Starting point is 00:53:34 Is it- Would you say it's a chupacabra in any way? I would never say it's a chupacabra. I would say it's the best friend I would ever want. I would say it is the little tiny alien robot that I would want as a child as a friend. Oh my God. It legitimately looks like there could be a plush toy of this. He's like a little, he's like a little body.
Starting point is 00:53:59 And the head is like, I would say, 60% of the whole body. He was walking around the city. Little beady eyes. Oh my God. He's so cute. He looks like a butt blood. He really does. He looks more like a butt blood.
Starting point is 00:54:13 People would try to blow him up. Incredible. I just don't know how to describe the thing, but I know that I love it. I know that I love it. I'm throwing it on the subreddit. Don't worry, guys. I got you. All right.
Starting point is 00:54:30 Head over to the subreddit. That's it for us all. Next week is episode 100. Jesse's episode. So whatever Jesse's bringing to episode 100, we- Wow. I can't believe we'll be at 100 episodes next week. Crazy stuff.
Starting point is 00:54:41 Thank you guys so much for the support. We will see you in next week. And obviously, Crendor, thank you for joining us on this wonderful Chill Mini and giving our patrons a little extra of your wonderful voice. Oh, yeah, dude. Thanks for having me. I don't. I'd like to have you on again, but Jesse thinks it's a good idea.
Starting point is 00:54:55 Thanks for listening, everybody. Don't ask him. He's not going to say it's a good idea. I believe this door was real, by the way. This is the door in the sky. This story rings true to me. The door? I believe in the door.
Starting point is 00:55:06 Yeah, I believe in the door. The door in the sky, sure. What could be on the other side? Michael Jackson. Anything. Perhaps the next episode of the show. Just reach up and grab it and twist the handle and perhaps you have your phone on you and grab your phone.
Starting point is 00:55:20 Yeah. Goodbye, everybody. We'll see you next week. Goodbye. Weddings, college graduations, your stepmom placing third in a dog rooming competition.

Starting point is 00:56:32 Baby, welcome back. Episode, chill mini 40-something. I'll know when we're at 50. We're not there yet. I'll know. I'll know. So I'll keep it in mind. I know.

Starting point is 00:56:53 Yeah. Yeah. But today's not that day. So what'd you boys bring for any fun stories? I got some science for your brain. I'm ready. I've got a heartwarming story involving a recent episode. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:57:06 Well, I got both of you beat. I got a sea monster caught on camera at a professional golf tournament this year. Hell yes. Of course. Let's hear it. Of course you do. Let's start there.
Starting point is 00:57:17 Lake monster appears in background of golf tournament. Of course this is coming from coast to coast AM. Television viewers watching the Wells Fargo championship golf tournament over the weekend were taken aback when they noticed a monstrous looking thing suddenly emerge out of the water behind one of the players. The weird scene reportedly unfolded on Sunday afternoon as Keith Mitchell was putting at the 17th hole of Charlotte's
Starting point is 00:57:39 Quail Hollow Club, which post hosted the PGA event. The seemingly routine moment during the tournament took a strange turn when a rather sizable fin popped out of the water behind the golfer. I was just watching to see where his golf ball went. So you can there's actually videos 13 seconds long. I'll link it to you boys if you want. It's not a difficult one.
Starting point is 00:57:58 I'll put it in zoom chat for you. There you go. That's the video of the lake creature. Worthy enough of coast to coast AM news. There it is. Oh, did you see that sea monster? I saw it. Can't wait to see this.
Starting point is 00:58:12 That is like a seal or something. Come on. That wasn't a seal. 13 seconds. Only 13 seconds. OK. No, that's nothing. It's a monster.
Starting point is 00:58:24 What are you talking about? It's something. It's definitely something. Why is it playing the Truman show now? Weird. You just started playing the movie the Truman show just now. That's the real mystery. That is like a seal popping up or something.
Starting point is 00:58:40 It's some type of. Jesse, it's a sea monster. That is the lamest sea monster. It's the tiniest little baby sea monster there ever was. Well, what they don't tell you is that guy is actually 19 feet tall. Perspective. You're right. My bad.
Starting point is 00:58:56 Let's see. An answer was eventually provided by the director of communications for Wells Fargo Championship, who told the local media outlet in North Carolina that the creature was most likely a very large catfish. Catfish? No. It's a sea monster. I believe sea monster over catfish.
Starting point is 00:59:12 Yeah, you think so? That thing keeps its nose out of the water for a little bit. It didn't look like a catfish face. You know how you fish for catfish with your fricking noodley finger? You stick a fucking hand down their goddamn throat. Have you ever eaten catfish? Catfish is great. Are you kidding me?
Starting point is 00:59:30 My family's from Louisiana. Like, yeah, come on. Oh, God. I'm going to be going to Louisiana my first time this year. I'm so excited. Get some Boudin, my dude. That's amazing. Good job.
Starting point is 00:59:39 Yeah. I'm pumped. Don't miss the Boudin on the road sides. Yeah. Other than that, you know, the Hudson Valley woman saw some sweet Sasquatches, apparently. Some Sasquatches? Yeah, some Sasquatch sightings, multiple sightings of the Sasquatch. We're about to have a Sasquatch overload.
Starting point is 00:59:53 So don't don't get too far into Sasquatch. I got a great... I won't even. I won't even. Great Squatch story coming soon. Oh, do you have a great episode? We will have... I reached out to that guy who did the Sasquatch documentary on Hulu was it?
Starting point is 01:00:08 Oh, yeah. Yeah, yeah. Because I know him through a friend. And after he's gone, he's out of the country for the summer, but when he comes back, he wants to pop on the show. That is so exciting. I love to ask about Squatch. Me too.
Starting point is 01:00:20 I'm like, I'm in. Let's go. I got to watch the doc. And I got to make sure I'm not making fun of him if we do a Sasquatch episode with him. Fair, fair enough. Because it's a, it's a, I mean, the story that I've got is a whopper, but it's a good one. I'm excited.
Starting point is 01:00:33 What would you bring us today then, Alex? Okay. So it's a heartwarming story, right? As you know, if you're listening to this far in the future, a couple years ago, the world went through a global pandemic. It was crazy. And one of the big things, the real concrete things that have come out of the pandemic is unfortunately so many small businesses had to, you know, close their doors forever
Starting point is 01:00:57 or fire a bunch of people, just, you know, heartbreaking stuff that everybody can agree is just a big pile of piss, right? Nobody, nobody wants to do that, right? Which means I'm ready for daddy Walmart to take over the world. I'm not ready. I don't want that at all. But that brings us to Milton, West Virginia, where the Blanco glass company, who is one of those artisanal classic, like the dude with the stick with the glowy shit, like artisanal
Starting point is 01:01:28 glass makers for hundreds, hundred years at least, they, they had to close for months, which basically bodied their business because if you can imagine, like they're not made for that type of one, you know, just to like have that much saved up to run a company. But late last summer, as they were finally able to like sort of slowly reopen and figure shit out, they, they went a sort of different route than normal to, like, get their shit back in, in, in session. And normally these people, they make things like water bottles and bowls and sun catchers. I'm on the website right now.
Starting point is 01:02:12 I'm looking at it right now. Yeah. Which like normally these water bottles are like 50 bucks at most, but they partnered with a local artist in West Virginia and did a limited run small little statue. It kind of looks like one of those bubbler lights that you have at Christmas time. If you're from the 60s, I don't know if you know what I'm talking about, but sure. Some old lady is listening to this and knows what I'm talking about. But they, they took a, they took a local artist and made a little statue that costs $130.
Starting point is 01:02:43 That is the Flatwoods monster. Yeah. Where is this thing on their website? I'll send you the Washington Post article that I have if you want to see. I do want to see this. It has a picture of it. It's a cute little, it's a cute little guy. As we know, that's like the main power of the Flatwood monsters that everybody just
Starting point is 01:03:01 kind of likes it. Oh my God. That's so cute. Yeah, it absolutely is cute. There were only 800 of them and it ended up being their most profitable year in 20 years. Wow. The master craftsman Daniel Chapman was like, it was a pretty good seller. He'd been there at Blanco for 40 years and he uses a, he uses wood, mallet and a chisel
Starting point is 01:03:25 to mold the, to create the cast. Pretty crazy. That's crazy. They found this artist on Instagram and it totally was a huge boon to them. It was awesome. The quote is that they're trying to get it away from it being our grandmother's glass called in a home run and they just, in a way, we saved this company. Oh my God.
Starting point is 01:03:56 It was only available till November, 2020. Yeah. Now it's gone forever. It's gone forever. But here's the, here's the good news, which is that, you know, now that they've had this profitable year and they've gotten the paycheck protection program to give them a loan and stuff, the business is rolling. And even though they're not able to wear masks in the hot shop because they have to use their
Starting point is 01:04:22 mouths and shit to like make the glass. Everybody's doing okay. They've had some scares. They've had some COVID scares, but everything's finally kind of calmed down. They took the steps to make sure everybody was safe and protected, especially, you know, their blowers. They need their fucking lungs and shit. But the best thing is that the next thing they're teasing is that they're going to do
Starting point is 01:04:47 a mothman. Oh, another West Virginia, they're going to use the same artist to do the, to do the mothman. So get ready and check out Blanko Glass because they got some, I mean, look, I said it looked like a Christmas ornament, but I'm, I'm, I'm underselling it. It's like a beautiful flowing sort of like I thought it was like a green glass, almost a decanter thing is what it, I was like, oh, look at this or some kind of whiskey, like or some kind of like alcohol. It looks like a bottle.
Starting point is 01:05:17 Yeah. Like the head could like just pop right out and the head's red. It has little BDIs. They're clearly handmade. Awesome. I love, so I'm going through this. I love that this is very West Virginia in that I can order moonshine jugs and I'm actually thinking about like, what if I got a moonshine jug?
Starting point is 01:05:37 Moonshine is a, is one of those liquors where I'm like, oh man, that'd be so cool to have some moonshine around the house. And then I like go take a sip of the moonshine and I'm like, done. And then your hair explodes off your chest. You're just like, yeah. And suddenly wearing overalls where one of them is unbuttoned and you're hanging out and your bare feet overalls is, I wish we could rock that trend in LA. One overall.
Starting point is 01:06:06 I'm done. Nothing underneath the knee. That's what I'm talking about. That's the life. Let's go. No shoes on. Mm hmm. Big dirty toes.
Starting point is 01:06:16 I want that for myself. Yeah. You know those, you know those possums that Buster and Bab saw on the tiny tuned summer vacation? Yes. I want to be them. Oh, jays. I need an area.
Starting point is 01:06:27 Yeah. I need an area. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. I can do that. I'd be happy. That's a slow life.
Starting point is 01:06:35 I'd be happy with that. That's the life. Yeah. Yeah, man. That is the chill life to live. Well, Jesse, take us to the land of facts. Let's get crazy. So for a long, long, long time, scientists have thought that Neanderthals are beloved
Starting point is 01:06:50 ancestors long in the past. They would eat lots and lots of meat. Like that was their thing. They were big meat eaters. They were hunters. They would go around, you know, like bully mammoth and saber tooth and all that stuff. Anyway, a new study determined that this, this sort of image we have of meat eating Neanderthals is BS bacteria collected from Neanderthal teeth show that our close cousins,
Starting point is 01:07:20 these people that we are like, they're on our family tree. They grew their brain mass, you know, during between 700,000 years ago and 2 million years ago, their brains like exploded in size. And they're like, oh, there's no way that meat can do this. They couldn't figure out how it's possible that meat. They were like, there's something, they're missing the, the like actual nutrients needed. The science behind growing something like a brain over such a long period of time. It doesn't make any sense.
Starting point is 01:07:52 Well, they found in the teeth of these Neanderthals that they also ate tons of roots, nuts and other starchy foods that dramatically altered the bacteria in their mouth. The findings suggests that our ancestors adapted adapted to eating starch at least 600,000 years ago, about the same time that we think our brains would have needed sugars for that like big expansion. The study is groundbreaking because it suggests that our ancestors and Neanderthals were cooking lots of starchy foods, you know, that long ago, way before we assume they adapted agricultural techniques 10,000 years ago.
Starting point is 01:08:36 So they were getting food from the ground well before they decided that like, hey, maybe we should put food in the ground ourselves. They, you know, they were doing it. And so this is when our brains doubled. This is why as they got smarter, they developed a higher quality diet. And so now they're, they're eating all different types of sugars and starches and carbs they're putting in their body. And so what they discovered is during this time period, what was actually happening is
Starting point is 01:09:08 that our distant past cousins and ancestors were straight up carb loading. That's how, that's how they developed because they were doing so much physical activities and doing all this stuff. Yeah. They were just like cramming, you know, potatoes and things in their mouth. Brain moves. That's what it's called. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:09:28 Big brain plays. And so that's what, and they, they kind of got it. And then they kind of got what they needed that meat alone was not sufficient. They needed something else to keep them going. And so shout out to again, just like every other time I look at like a weird food, all those people who died digging up stuff and eating it. Those are the real heroes. When you see something on like the food network and it's like, yeah, this is an urchin.
Starting point is 01:09:51 And someone just thought like, let's cut into this spiky thing and eat the eggs inside. It is delicious. Shout out to that guy who was like, effort, I'm going to see what this is like. Those are the heroes of history. The ones who are the first time like, wait, wait, wait, so this brown thing looks like a turd. If I cook it, it's delicious. Potatoes.
Starting point is 01:10:09 I think about that all the time when I think about how old of a thing beer is. Yes. Oh God. Yes. Like what the fuck was that guy doing? I mean, cavemen were getting like drunk off of fermented fruits for a fucking long time. Like we, yeah, like when I was in Sweden, we were looking at videos of drunk mousses that eat apples that fall off the trees and the forest just end up like wiped out.
Starting point is 01:10:33 They had a good fucking night though. And you know they did. That's, thank you for bringing that. And I'm glad to know that we age fruits when we were six thousand, hundred thousand years old. Here's the crazy thing is like, I guess, going back to what Alex was just saying, that there's evidence they ate grasses, tubers and cooked barley, as well as other things that were fermented.
Starting point is 01:10:55 Cooked barley. Cooked barley. And I'm like, what can we put on it? And then can we eat it afterwards? I mean, that was, that was the ultimate crazy move was like, and how they died from plucking things that shouldn't have been eaten along the way. I mean, that was trial and error. You know, that was, they were like, you know, people died doing that.
Starting point is 01:11:11 Yeah. But to that first dude who ate the whole artichoke and just fucked himself up. Yeah. There's, I mean, that's, that's history is all of that. If you think about it, especially with food, someone was like, I guess we'll try it. And half the time worked out great. And the other half of the time dead, instantly dead. And how long until they realized what it was that was killing them?
Starting point is 01:11:33 Oh, there was a few people that died in the pro like, no, that was just that guy. He was an idiot. Dead. Lessons learned. After the fourth or fifth guy, you're like, I don't think Luke was right on that one. I don't think so. Luke was really adamant about those really bright red berries. And I don't know how that worked out in the end.
Starting point is 01:11:52 Yeah. Well, thank you guys so much for funding us for a hundred episodes. And thank you guys for keeping along with us over at the Patreon.

Starting point is 01:12:10 Anyway, me and my wife were sitting outside indulging on our porch one night enjoying ourselves. I needed to go to the bathroom. So I stepped back inside and after a few moments, I hear my wife go, holy shit, get out of here. So I quickly dash back outside and she's looking up at the sky in the fall. I look up too and there's a perfect line of dozen lights traveling across the sky. Finding your perfect home was hard, but thanks to Borough, furnishing it has never been easier.
