Starting point is 00:00:00 There's no place to escape to. This is the last talk. On the left. Side stories. What? What's your glade? That's when the cannibalism started. Side stories.
Starting point is 00:00:11 Side stories. Yes. Oh, yeah. Oh, kissle. Yaaas. To be amongst the little people. No. My kind.
Starting point is 00:00:19 Why? A fairy-kin. You're not a fairy-kin. Oh, yes I am. No, they're tinier and cuter than you. You're not a fairy-kin. You're not a fairy-kin. Oh, yes I am.
Starting point is 00:00:27 No, they're tinier and cuter than you. I am the fairy-kin. And you'll see once we go back to Jolly Old UK, man. Woo-hoo. And go there amongst my little people. The United Kingdom. Is that it? The UK.
Starting point is 00:00:40 Yeah, yeah. I mean, but isn't it in disarray currently? Yeah, like everything else. They're just like us after all. I'm kind of scared. I'm excited. When we go over there, it's like when you go across. So in England, do you have to change hats when you now leave?
Starting point is 00:00:54 Or is it just like another country? From the fedora into more of a western style? I'm not quite sure. Do I have to wear like a wooden hat when we're in Amsterdam? If you want to be cool. I don't know because I know they have the wood shoes. Do they wear those all the time? Well, no.
Starting point is 00:01:09 I don't know if they ever wore those. I think they're more for decoration. We had a couple in my house when I was growing up. Oh, but did you not leave them? Did you not have to go and like put the wood shoes out front of your house and then you pee in them so Dutch Santa comes? Is that what happens? Like don't you put the little wooden shoes out and then you're different or whatever
Starting point is 00:01:27 his name is. Father Hinterland, like he comes and he like squats over them and then he leaves his eggs. Yeah. I love that. I don't know. I'm asking you. You're the one. You're the closest person with that sort of representation.
Starting point is 00:01:39 Well, I went to Amsterdam when I was 19. I don't recall that, but I can't wait to be at Amsterdam soon. Welcome to Side Stories, everyone. Ben hanging out with Henry here. It's me. Really trying to figure out the cultural differences that we're about to experience when we go to Europe. You know what I won't do ever?
Starting point is 00:01:53 Research. What? I won't even look it up. I'm not going to go. I'm not going to buy a travel book because what I like to do is and maybe you know this as well as side stories. I like to imagine what could be true and then just follow up on that with myself. And then what I do is I ask other people who don't know like you or even Marcus who sometimes
Starting point is 00:02:11 let's just be honest, pretends to know. He'll pretend to know a lot of stuff, but he only knows what he read in his books. His books. His little books. I make up stuff that I know every day. And a lot of it holds because you find out a lot of times I'll say something that's completely out of my ass. And then some expert somewhere is like, Henry actually wasn't too far from incorrect.
Starting point is 00:02:31 And that makes you almost right. Yep. There you go. And you just made it up. Educated guesses or educated misguesses. Either way, we're coming from an educated position of mostly stereotypical beliefs of the Dutch. I just don't know anything about them.
Starting point is 00:02:46 And so I just make stuff up. I know they sleep really well. And I don't know. How do you know that? Just because I feel like they're sleepy people. I feel like if you're Dutch, that's actually very strange for a culture that's actually very centered around clocks. Exactly.
Starting point is 00:02:59 The things they call clocks. But I feel like there'd be a lot of pressure. Then every time you go to sleep, all yours. But that's how you go to sleep because that's their version of white noise. Like how I have to sleep with a fan. They have to sleep with a slow tick of death. Yeah. I always sleep with some guy in my room.
Starting point is 00:03:13 Just go. Yeah. Go to sleep. It is football season after all. Night boner indeed. Well speaking of night boners, she's not a hero, but I just stumbled upon this article. Remember Boy Meets World? You just wait a second.
Starting point is 00:03:29 No, this is not. We're not just talking about the pros and cons of Maitland Ward on this episode. I love her. She's obviously very talented at what she does. Boy met the world. And he also met the world. You're just talking about Maitland Ward, who was in Boy Meets World, who now does porn. Yes.
Starting point is 00:03:46 And we'd love to have her on the show. Yeah. You didn't take the scoop from me? This is not a scoop. This has been around for years. People have known. That's not news. Well she said that porn liberated her from Hollywood.
Starting point is 00:03:58 It did. It liberated her from work in Hollywood. But that's why it's very difficult because she actually does a much harder job than acting in a sitcom, which is taking it in a bunch of holes. Because that actually is much more difficult and I would actually put forth much more useful to society. Well, absolutely. She was a soap opera actress.
Starting point is 00:04:16 I will say I was watching this one video. This has nothing to do with Maitland Ward. But it's a good shift. But I was like, I'm not ready to shift for you. It doesn't really matter. I was watching a video with this like little young girl. She was sick. She was going to be dead soon with cancer.
Starting point is 00:04:35 Yeah. Why were you watching this? It was this obstacle course they were dragging her through. And I always actually felt it was very inappropriate. No, that's not true. She was in hospice. You already have so much anxiety, so much stress. OCD.
Starting point is 00:04:46 It's been diagnosed. Sure. Why watch children dying? Because at least it's them. Because that doesn't make me feel worse when it's in a full grown adult who had something to live for. Kids don't know. You get like a version of emotional shot in Freud when you watch somebody else's die
Starting point is 00:04:58 being like, nah, nah, nah, nah. I stumbled. I stumbled there. But it was she was being serenaded. It was a very beautiful video being serenaded by Florence and the machine. It was very sad. I really actually got very emotional watching it. How did she know who Florence and the machine were?
Starting point is 00:05:11 You know, it was a tie. It was like she was like not that young. Okay. And this was a video from a while ago, right? Got it. But I was kind of thinking like, that's going to be so fucked up that if you got cancer and you're lying in bed and you know you're dead. And but like maybe you have a glimmer of hope.
Starting point is 00:05:24 And then you turn to the doctor and you say, hey, hey, like, what's going on? How am I doing? How am I test coming back? And he's just like, before we get to that, just so you know, Steven Tyler from Aerosmith is here. And it's like, that's how you know you're dying. And then any grandmother that's really thin looks like they could clack, can walk into the room and you'll be so blind at that point.
Starting point is 00:05:44 No clue. Like, oh, it's Steven Tyler. And then they talk about having sex and elevators with you. You know how many times I get called in to be Paul Giamatti for people in hospice? And it's sad for them. Cause then I just go like, I can just make a bunch of noises. And then they're like, I love you in billions. All you have to say is yes.
Starting point is 00:06:02 Yep. Yep. Wow. That's such an unbelievably great, corrupt, disgusting Hollywood offshoot business. The Booker for Hospice. The Booker that books knockoff celebrities for hospice, like Nicholas Cage with a K instead of a C. You know, when Michael Jackson shows up to see you off to the River Styx.
Starting point is 00:06:24 That's a lot. I mean, but again, you know what I'd like to do is work. It's impossible to make a living these days as actors. It's very difficult. It's really difficult. But that's what I was saying. If we're going to do this, right? I'm going to book me something.
Starting point is 00:06:35 Let's do one. I'm 60. All right. Like, I know it's technically like, let's book it while we're alive. Like what you say about how like the United States, like birthdays are for the dying, but truthfully, wouldn't it be nice to have one of those like a pre-funeral where you can go and you can like have the funeral so you can hear all the good stuff that everybody says and not just be dead.
Starting point is 00:06:54 People do that. I've seen people do that. And I don't, I don't really like birthdays very much. And I find the, the fake funeral thing, I don't know, actually now that I'm thinking about it, it would be nice to force people to dress up and cry, but then they wouldn't really be that sad. I don't need it to be normal. No one would ever be sad enough.
Starting point is 00:07:11 No, no, I don't want, because again, the funeral part, I'm glad I'm not there to see them all be sad at the funeral, but it'd be nice to get all the glee, get all that juice of like all the confidence from when you, and like, I guess technically that's a retirement party. But now we're not, we don't do that anymore. But for life, a retirement party, for life, yes, I don't think anyone would go to your real funeral then because they'd be like, we already did it. Who cares, I don't know, I wouldn't even, this is my, this is Alinda coming out.
Starting point is 00:07:35 Who cares? It's not like I would be there to notice. That's true. And your mother, she's already upset with how you've reacted to her at her funeral and what you've done. She's already upset with you. But it's not enough. It's just because I'm not there going like, like, it's not me with mascara dripping down
Starting point is 00:07:55 my face with the veil on, singing some Whitney Houston song like that. She's already mad that that's not going to happen. She doesn't know what's going to happen. You're about this one guy who thought he was Satan and Jesus. I mean, God, we are all, we are all multiples, aren't we? Some days I wake up and I don't know which I am. It was this guy who was in Boone County, which, you know, that's where Satan and Jesus is going to live inside of one vessel, which actually sounds like a cute sitcom.
Starting point is 00:08:22 What was the name of that movie with the animated characters inside of the brain, inside out? Inside out, but it's a devil. But with Satan and Jesus living inside of one person, be like, how the fuck do we get here, man? Yeah. Take your cock out, but ask the woman if she wants to see it. They go, very good. Well, anyway, this guy, he cut off his own leg in front of a five year old and then he
Starting point is 00:08:44 was just found with his leg gone naked in the front yard. So you never know what you're, that's the one thing again about the place where we do realize you got a call today. You woke up and you just like having your coffee and you're like, we're getting a call in the Boone County house and then you just show up, there's a naked dude with one leg that he's thought off, who believes he's Satan and Jesus. Well, he did it in front of his own five year old daughter and he said, hey, Kissel, before you jump on this, he said he did it to show her something and to teach her a lesson.
Starting point is 00:09:13 Now the couple, I don't know, 48 year old Shannon Cox, and that's a male Shannon, with the Sandy Cox who is 30, right? Her name is Sandy Cox. Sandy Cox, which is fun because again, you're going to want to give that a wipe before you jump in. That's hard about beef sex. Absolutely. Well, you wouldn't think this story took place in Florida, but this is actually Arkansas
Starting point is 00:09:33 with all those Sandy Cox. It is fun. But he said, he determined, the investigators showed up because we actually, we covered this. This is just now we know what happened, like we covered this man with an amputated leg before. There's a couple of things that have popped up several times on the show this week for some reason specifically that we actually have explanations for.
Starting point is 00:09:56 But it was a huge chop saw that it said that he painted blood all over the inside of his house and was in front of his own, his front of his own child. But he said what he found him is that this is what sad is that again, if you believe that Jesus is telling you to chop off your own leg in front of your family, to teach them a lesson about like, are you going to trust, I guess, but if you do that, I don't, they found him screaming on the front lawn. Yeah. I'll be like, I'm bleeding to death, I'm fucking bleeding to death.
Starting point is 00:10:27 Yeah. Real Matthew Lillard moment for him. I think he went a little too deep. But it's like you did it, bro. He did do it. Sandy Cox, his lovely, lovely wife, oh mama, she said, she's cute, but she said, yeah, you know, Shannon was acting odd all day. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:10:43 Acting odd all day. And I always say that when my friends are acting a little off, just like, oh, next step, he's going to cut off his own leg. Well, anyway, he was escalating, right? And he kept saying that the husband's threats at the home, they were turning, they never quickly, they never completely turned to physical abuse. Yeah. He was kind of, he was due to verbal abuse.
Starting point is 00:11:04 But then eventually she said, well, things had to change, but she still left the child home alone with Shannon when she went to do some errands. And it wasn't until she came back that she found out that he had done this. Right. And she said, there was a damaged vehicle was present on the property. The hood was up, a 20 pound propane canister was sitting on the battery on and say, this is just, this is just normal for Boone County. It's very possible.
Starting point is 00:11:28 Because how many times you go there? Like, I think you can tell the potential worth of any one of these homes by how many inoperable washing machines they have on the stoop, like out on the front porch, because that's money. Just sit there. I learned something from American pickers. Sometimes these washing machines can be vintage. That's what I'm saying.
Starting point is 00:11:47 That they never go through. I view it obviously because, you know, because we don't know, we understand, we throw a judgment. We think it's just a trash pile. I don't always throw a judgment. I've driven by a few homes. As a matter of fact, there was one recently in San Antonio, a lot of chickens around. Yep. And then the chickens, that's money too.
Starting point is 00:12:05 That's money. Good eggs. Exactly. There's for pillows, something you can fuck. Well, okay. That's a problem. That's where it's at a renewable source unless you make it, unless you keep the eggs. Absolutely.
Starting point is 00:12:15 Well, that's the whole point. There's a small truck that did look like it was inoperable, but I also said, someone can fix that up. This is what I'm saying. I want to get, I want to become trash king. You know the trash is out there. Money. I know this.
Starting point is 00:12:31 I know this. This money in trash. We've been saying this. We've talked about this for years. You talk about how like there's the inner barter, the barter system just came up in the Charles Dark where they're serious. Absolutely. About the bartering system inside of the sanitation department, about how that's free as money.
Starting point is 00:12:44 It's crazy. Just sit there. It's crazy. And that's why the thing is we got to start getting trash and putting them big fields. Right? And then let people come. Yeah, what should we make? We should get into the dump business.
Starting point is 00:12:56 Buddy, honestly, I would, but we'll get killed. I know. That's how you die. Because sanitation is the most dangerous union out there. Why though, man? Let us in. We're the indie upstarts of the dump industry. Don't ever find your body, but it'll be at my dump.
Starting point is 00:13:11 Don't ever find your body. That's money. We're getting this money on the table. We're getting the dump. You can use my blood for blood. You can take all my bones and make them into a Halloween costume. But then you're just dead. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:13:23 That's what we look like. My father always said where he's like, I'm with more dead than alive. I know your father is very depressed and not expect to live as long as he did or has. And I hope that he continues to, despite his absolute disdain for life. But when it comes to Shannon, I don't know if she's the best mother I know when I'm throwing shade. Well, Shannon's the man. And when it comes to Sandy Gax, I don't know if she's the best mother because when this
Starting point is 00:13:47 is according to Corporal Jason Briscoe and you know Corporal Jason Briscoe, Corporal Briscoe. Oh, God damn it, man. This was supposed to be in the day every day. I know. And I also feel like that's the guy that I met two times. What's with fucking Ohio, man? What do you mean?
Starting point is 00:14:03 When we stopped at the gas station in Ohio, two separate ones. Oh, yeah. I don't know what it is with you. Men keep showing me their penis. You have seen more dicks than any person I have ever seen in my life. We were in that thing. Well, obviously, this is bad. We were at the slippery noodle in Indianapolis when the man came up to me.
Starting point is 00:14:21 I was in the urinals. I was in there alone. And it was like there were six urinals. And he walked right up to the one right next to mine, going, hey, man, can you help me out here? He just wants you to blow him a little bit. Can you fucking help me out here, man? Touch it.
Starting point is 00:14:31 And he's like his pants, his front pants were open and I just kept turning my body away from him. And he's, God, fuck it, help me out here, man. And then in Ohio. The man, two men, grown men, to come to the urinal, they pulled their penis out at the door. And there was no reason that he walked it across the entire row. He did walk like a deca or an iguana.
Starting point is 00:14:55 It felt like he was landing a plane. Yeah. We were like, there's no reason for this. But I feel like that's where Colonel Briscoe ends up. That's the guy we're all day. He's just like, yeah, you know, I do whatever I can for the American government. I just try to keep his honest. Meanwhile, like his whole night, it's been, hey, man, can you fucking help me out here?
Starting point is 00:15:11 Help me out here. I think they think that you're a child until you turn around and they see your beard. But that's even worse. Yeah. I'm in the bathroom. It's a slippery noodle. They were checking IDs. I mean, not thoroughly, but there was a line for some reason as well.
Starting point is 00:15:25 Yes, indeed. So Sandy, why did I say I don't believe she's the best mother? It's because when Corporal Briscoe was finished taking his ding-dong out at the local bathroom, he asked her. He says, quote, what I asked Sandy why she didn't take her daughter with her. She said she was worried about Shannon killing her and wasn't worried about her daughter. See? So I'm going to say if I'm worried that someone's going to kill me, I would take my dogs with
Starting point is 00:15:50 me too. Oh yeah, of course. Because I think they could kill anything. She definitely kind of assumed that he'd kill the daughter, but she, and then he'd be done. You know what I mean? Like, oh, well. Well, then actually, then I can start over and I get all those brownie points for being
Starting point is 00:16:04 a brief mother. But who knows, maybe I'm incorrect, maybe she was just scared. But also it sounded like they never really expected him to go this far. And then what happened was, was that he cut off his own leg, I guess, to show how serious he was that he, he himself was the battleground between Jesus and Satan. And I guess he lost. Yeah. Yeah, Sandy said he was telling her that, yeah, again, he was Jesus and he needed to
Starting point is 00:16:29 get right with the Lord. But then he would get violent towards her and then he said he was Satan. And then he said he was going to quote, twist your head off. That's not good. That's like, isn't there a commercial with that? Were you twist your head off? There's some kind of commercial. I mean, there was that old movie that it was on the cover with him.
Starting point is 00:16:44 Death Becomes Her. Oh, well, that was fantastic. Love Death Becomes Her. That's who I remember gets the head twist. That's great. It's good content. Oh, it's a fantastic film. Why not?
Starting point is 00:16:53 Life from your grave. Hey, what's up, everyone? How you doing? Ben Kissel here with Henry Zabrowski. Yeah, it's me, man. Yeah, bro. Kissel Zabrowski is smoking some of that sweet last podcast on the left, babe. Go out there and purchase yourself some.
Starting point is 00:17:07 I hope you enjoy it. We have sativa, we have indica, and we have a hybrid. And I have to tell you, from my personal experience, they are wonderful. Super tasty live resin. You really get the delicious, weedy taste, which is what I like. And three different experiences. You go to your local vape store and get it. Absolutely.
Starting point is 00:17:25 Thank you all so much for supporting the show. We absolutely love you. Can't wait to see you on the road and get that vape. Put it in your brain and have a good time. And if you want to set your favorite weed store, give them a call and ask for them by name. Last podcast on the left, it's weed. Hail yourselves, everyone.
Starting point is 00:17:40 Hail Satan. There's another story, right? So we know, we don't have our job. You know, Fernando, like when anybody says we here at at GloboCorp, we're a family, right? Like when they say that, well, families can be very abusive very much so you were about to get distinctly abused, right? You're going to be manipulated, something's going to fuck with you, but it's even worse when they say, we here at a funky chicken restaurant, right?
Starting point is 00:18:08 We're an organization, we're a belief system, and that's because that's not good either. And this one woman is pretty sounding like she's guilty, but she's so far only accused of being a cult leader, but the thing is, it's all centered around chicken. It is. So layer Alarai, who is this woman who definitely, I mean, she just looks like a kind of like a quote mom, like she looks pretty normal if you take a look at her, right? She kind of look shrugging here, inspirational woman runs a, well, she was one of the people that runs a chicken sandwich pop-up truck that actually looks really fucking good called
Starting point is 00:18:44 bad rooster. Oh, I'd like to name bad rooster even a naughty rooster. I know it's they use only that's what it's great because for those of you that feel guilty about the consumption of animals, they only use animals that were prosecuted and convicted of rape and murder. Well, isn't that sad? Because that's how they get them. They go to the chicken jails.
Starting point is 00:19:02 But bad rooster serve sandwiches. And first of all, you're like, fantastic. Great. What's the wrong? Yeah. Sure. I bet people were devoted to the sandwiches. I bet how many of us currently on brand human beings probably involved currently with
Starting point is 00:19:15 something called a shoe cult or jelly of the month cult because I saw you and throw it around. I saw your little far too aggressive Instagram post. I think Sia is getting scared of you know, Sia retweeted, did he sees how much work I am putting into unboxing for him? Sia's shoes are literally the best made shoes. I'm wearing them right now. They're the best made shoes in the business.
Starting point is 00:19:40 And there's no there's no child factory workers. Right. It's just his connections really good. But yeah, this Devlin Devlin hear me say hello to him, but this is different again. He didn't ask for this reminds me of when you got to go meet the guy from ancient aliens George O. He didn't want to answer any of my questions about Zacharias such and he just wanted to talk to all the girls in front of me, which I did not.
Starting point is 00:20:08 I literally didn't understand. I was like, um, I'm here to actually speak of something with substance and it seems he's just looking down the shirts of these women with nipple piercings and they don't know why. But again, we do it cute, we join these little cult things because now obviously we've been a bit desensitized to it. We think it's fun to join these things. But the thing is that if they outwardly just say it's a cult, just because it's a post
Starting point is 00:20:35 modern cult, does it mean you're not going to end up in a bunch of trouble living in a broom closet, doing free manual labor for a woman with the fake name of Soler Soler Elolari, this woman, she began a lot of people so that they all got it like apparently where she started before she got into the chicken industry was that she ran a health and wellness expose. She's a new age teacher. Right. And she started this thing.
Starting point is 00:21:03 This is again, before chicken, she's from Minnesota where she said that she would sit people in a circle and she would channel a godlike entity known as G and deliver spiritual guidance. It's hacky, come on. So everybody's done it. Like listen, if you're going to, if we're channeling here, man, I'm doing light as a feather stiff as a board. That's really good.
Starting point is 00:21:26 And then you're strong enough to just lift the woman. You're like, it's cool. It's right. 50 bucks. I just lifted you. We did it in high school. And I don't know. I mean, but it did work.
Starting point is 00:21:34 There's a two fingers. And you lift the person up. He believes in magic. Frenando just got scared. It was, there was a weird noise. Wow. When you did that, was there a weird noise? Ooh, that's magic.
Starting point is 00:21:44 I'm not going to do that to myself. Oh, light as a feather stiff as a board. We were all scared. And we can rest. And I will look what I do with myself and light as a feather, step as a board. Oh, wow. That's for the Patreon. Oh, well, this is so amazing.
Starting point is 00:21:58 Again, it's like, when you know you're doing bad, when you're sick. Oh, look at that. He can lift the phone to his face. Yeah. Oh, you have a good day. You wait today. It's UFO calls. All right.
Starting point is 00:22:10 So back. So this started in 2008. Right. And since then, over the last 13 years, they have been, she's slowly building this group and actually had this spiritual awakening group where she's been giving them a bunch of feedback, you know, is that they all have now moved into her home and she's making them all work for her for free. And then she made this one guy, a man by the name of Terrence McCabe.
Starting point is 00:22:30 She made him go and pull out all of his retirement, his retirement savings and sell his, his stake in his family farm for $1.5 million and he's become one third of the financiers of Bad Rooster. Isn't that something? This whole chicken movement that she is now a part of. Is he getting a return on his investment? No, because what she is saying, unfortunately, is that up until now, what you'd have to do is the transmissions to G you're getting longer and longer to get to.
Starting point is 00:23:00 More expensive, it almost seems like. It's not just more expensive, but more involved because what happens is that solar will sit everybody down and then the first thing she does is lament about how difficult it is for her to get in touch with G. She's having a hard time. She's having a hard time and then she's commenting about how it's starting to seem like none of you care about chicken and seem to only care about the life lessons that G brings you.
Starting point is 00:23:25 And they all have to go, no, no, no, no, we're here for the chicken. We love the chicken. We're here for you because she wants to be, what Soler is saying is that none of you care about Soler. You only care about who Soler can introduce you to, right? Like the guy that I know that can get me in touch with Devlin Carter from Messiah, right? Like that's all they want, right? That's all they care about.
Starting point is 00:23:46 But what about Soler? So what she is saying, y'all need to work harder to get in touch with G. So now more and more people are showing up and working for free for the chicken truck, right? In order to get access to the Godhead. Well, to be honest, she did find a way to circumvent having to pay your employees. No, she's very technically, she's brilliant. Yeah, it seems as if they're doing it out of their own free will. It's quite insane.
Starting point is 00:24:11 Well, yeah, it's a cult. Yeah, it's a cult. Yeah, they're giving up their whole lives. I'm taking a look here at the menu and I must say they have a thing called the naked bird. It does. Yeah. Which is again, can we fucking quit it?
Starting point is 00:24:21 Listen to me. I'm fucking, I'm up to here with these lettuce wrap fucking garbage in this fucking country of ours. I get it. I like a little, I like it in Thai food. I like a little of lettuce wrap, but because if they put food in it, no, listen, no, I know. But I'm just saying, when you take a full patty of meat and then you stick a couple
Starting point is 00:24:38 of romaine slices around it, that's not a sandwich. Just get a salad or get a sandwich, buddy, you're just holding it on my lawn. I don't know, my friend. I have never been so upset about that because I don't get it. I'm a single issue voter. Yes, you are. But it does look as if this menu has some pretty tasty treats along with some tasty dips.
Starting point is 00:25:03 But she ended up doing in this cult. The problem is that she has really been pumping her people and they're getting worse and worse. The G sessions are getting shorter and shorter. And then what she's telling people is you can't talk to your family in fucking, it makes you less attached to G, right? And then like, she brings you in this thing because what she calls it is soulful journey is what her teaching program is. And a couple of people said that they could laugh because they wanted to be an individual.
Starting point is 00:25:31 They wanted to attend university, have friendships with people outside of the group, express myself, cut my hair, travel, date, explore hobbies, be able to have a life. When you're in soulful journey, you're not allowed any of that. Well, that doesn't sound very fun. No, it is very much so a cult. They do have a thing called a wall of flame, which I think is kind of funny. They say they call them mother cluckers, which isn't that unique. Oh, you're still talking about chicken?
Starting point is 00:25:54 Yes. And they dominated the one tender challenge, which I guess is a spicy tender. And look at this list of men and women. They all work there for free. These are the people that were, oh, look at that guy. They had a spicy wing. I think a lot of those are plants. I think those are plants.
Starting point is 00:26:10 I want to say, I feel like that's a, you remember when they do, what's it, the tragedy actors? Crisis actors. Crisis actors, it's that, but for chicken. They just pump in these chicken fans to be taking pictures of anywhere they're there for chicken. They don't understand that they're also selling a soulful journey because what she also did was that once she realized that like, all these people are like kind of like not, they're missing a point.
Starting point is 00:26:35 They're not on a soulful journey like they need to be had all of them pay to have their own massage classes, like they went to go take massage classes. She made them go pay out of pocket and then come back and a part of the sessions to get her ready to do G is that she makes everybody massage her one by one by one. Then she can be G. And I was just like, that makes sense. Right? Sure.
Starting point is 00:27:01 Exactly. I don't know what advice G is giving, right? It doesn't seem like it's that great because again, you're going to need another massage. You're still just working the fryer at a chicken truck. And I know that if it's your truck and mean something of it's you and your family's truck, but if you're just working for this woman, you're not getting anything out of it, especially gotten paid and not get paid. And then what she also did was that she hired people, quote unquote hired people that live
Starting point is 00:27:23 within her home and her complex, wherever she lives, right? Was he has people living with her? She made them develop video game for free, two separate video games. You know how hard this fucking shit is and she, one was called Banankee town, which I think it's a combination of banana and donkey. It's a banankee. I don't know. That's cute.
Starting point is 00:27:46 And then there's just two D three, but they never went anywhere. They did hundreds of hours of work on a video game that we'll probably never see the light of day. Think about the skills that one develops while working for free like that. Are you bad enough to go ahead with the rooster? Well, they had their first tender challenge on August 1st, 2021. Oh, you're still promo-ing the company. You're just promo-ing all of the things, all the different chicken, like alleyways that
Starting point is 00:28:13 they went down, all the different ways they tried to diversify the chicken scenario. We've drummed up, we've drummed up our hottest sauce yet and smothered in one of our tenders for you to endure. No mercy. You think you're bad enough or do you know someone crazy enough to fit the bill? I actually wonder if they used that because what they would also do is that they felt because Solaris, she calls herself, she calls herself as life strategist. That's her career.
Starting point is 00:28:38 That is, by the way, life coaching. Again, life coach I've ever met as a total epic failure. That's what I'm going to be. Never do one. Never go to one. I'm going to be a thought professor. That's just a professor. No, no, no, but I'm for your thoughts.
Starting point is 00:28:53 Well, I'm going to create a thought academy. So people just tell you their thoughts, you take them and then you monetize them. I give them notes. And then if they've got good thoughts, I help them achieve those goals. I think that is just a professor. And a podcast. Because it says here she's a life strategist which means It's podcaster and spiritual director.
Starting point is 00:29:13 Oh, she's a podcaster. I do other thing too, she sets up a thing called the posse that if you feel like you are out of pocket, she gets a bunch of people together to put you in a room and then everybody tells you what you got really going on. Oh, that's so fun. I love that live Twitter. Well, an interesting thing about this chicken tender
Starting point is 00:29:31 that they have, they say each tender comes in an ominous black box and contains a devilish amount of heat. I mean, again, this is satanic panic right in front of us. Absolutely. They concocted it with some of the hottest peppers in the world and they say after you eat the entire tender,
Starting point is 00:29:46 they start the clock at five minutes. I think that you're not allowed to have anything until five minutes are done. I mean, that's all of us is terrible. You've done this before and ruined your fucking like week. It really did. They take a photo and a video and they post it on their social media.
Starting point is 00:29:57 Like that's a good thing. So they do tell you that in the moment of total weakness, when you're crying, you're like, no spicy, man. They will have a video of it. Now, yeah, of course. That's the editing point right now. But what they also, these guys are just, they're fighting back.
Starting point is 00:30:10 All right. They're not taking this line down. They shouldn't. Because they're saying straight up because they're saying, someone's making false and defamatory statements, right? No one's done this before. The damage to the reputation is already substantial. And they believe that there was a relentless online campaign
Starting point is 00:30:24 to defame an award-winning local food truck and its owner because they were so successful. The chicken wars are real food truck wars. I mean, it's not just a show on the food network. It's a way of life. Honestly. Perhaps she did get a little too big for her britches. And then they find out she's running a cult.
Starting point is 00:30:43 Let's expose her. Well, if you are like, comes down to it, right? Think about stupid Chick-fil-A again. Somehow the chicken won, right? The chicken cut through all the noise. I still think that the Popeye's chicken sandwich ended up happening was really good. You know what I actually thought was an excellent substitute
Starting point is 00:31:01 for Chick-fil-A was the chicken from Burger King. And the chicken sandwich wars, that's to me, that ended up like it was really good for society the way it ended up. It's kind of like how, you know, like the only thing that was good that came out of World War II is that we got the VW bug. Well, the VW bug and a whole series of snack foods.
Starting point is 00:31:20 Let's not forget the candy bar was created for the rations for our- And the gene. And also, candy bars, I was watching this one show, the food that built America. Mm. The food did nothing. Well, did food, food did build America and someones didn't- Slave people built America.
Starting point is 00:31:36 So, food, when it comes to a crisis like the 1920s, they would say, can't afford meat? Yeah, yeah, yeah. And then they had to eat. Try some chocolate. Try some chocolate. Chocolate gives you energy. Like meat used to do.
Starting point is 00:31:48 But chocolate used to be different too. I mean, you know, when it comes down to it again, war, what is it good for? Absolutely nothing but the economy. Absolutely a lot of stuff when it comes to that. And Raytheon's doing good. But anyway, bad rooster. One thing that is concerning, they are open 24 hours,
Starting point is 00:32:06 seven days a week. It's just what I'm saying. It's cold like behavior. All right, well, be careful. People must have off. But again, if you take a whole day off, fuck you. Why? I mean, that's the Sunday thing.
Starting point is 00:32:17 I'm still mad about the Sunday thing. I'm just mad about anybody. Oh, you're just mad about Chick-fil-A, not getting your fat Chick-fil-A fill on 9-11. It's the only thing I could have done. It's the only thing I could have fixed it. All right, well, whatever. Let's see here, food delivery, robot trolls,
Starting point is 00:32:34 rooster-related crime scene. It's kind of funny. Yeah, it just walks through. It just didn't know what it was doing. No, it's automated. It's acute if, again, if you want to give them sentient qualities and you could imagine that you're the robot and you're just like, whoa, what?
Starting point is 00:32:46 I feel like this is kind of the problem is that we're throwing personalities on the robots. Yeah, the robot didn't know that there's- It feels nothing. No, it didn't. No, it's like the weird little, but again, I also appreciate that delivery robots are neutral, not unlike when we went to the one hotel
Starting point is 00:32:59 and they had the little butler robot that was going back and forth and had a smile on its face. Even that kind of feels just ingenious. Well, it had a little butler outfit. And you know, as soon as I got there, I was like, that's somebody's jab they just took. But then at three o'clock in the morning when I wanted my beef jerky, it did arrive.
Starting point is 00:33:14 Because it doesn't complain. It didn't do anything. No, no, it just shows up. It's open. It's open. No, no, no, I feel like in the end, I'm glad that people don't have to work all fucking night. But you just hope.
Starting point is 00:33:23 I don't think it should completely replace human beings. No, it really shouldn't. All right. Well, let's move on to a different tale. We've got this. There's a, right now it's very interesting. And it's currently in California in Texas. So there's a rash of false active shooter reports
Starting point is 00:33:40 at schools that seem to be. It's better than active shooters. It's happening. Yes, it's true. But it's, you know, obviously it's very destructive still because you freeze all the, you send resources away from where they need to be. Oh man, take a look at your life.
Starting point is 00:33:54 Oh man. You never called it a bomb threat? That was back when it was fun. I never called it a bomb threat. When we were kids, it was funny because you just had to hit zero. They couldn't track you or anything like that on your phone. We used to have the kiosks on the street
Starting point is 00:34:07 where you press the fire alarm button or the policeman button. And but then you see all the cars come. But as adults, they didn't think it was funny then. No, they were upset. So now I feel like it's, I think there is a contingent of people who just might think this is funny.
Starting point is 00:34:20 Well, yeah, kids find that all because they don't know yet. Oh, they, they don't know how precious life is. And how fast it slips through your gut and fingers. But they think that it might be connected to the GTA 6 leak and that Uber leak that happened as well. So it's weird. They think that all of this activity is all connected to each other.
Starting point is 00:34:38 They're not telling us how they know that, but it is strange. It seems to all be happening from some form of Joker Muppet baby that is currently doing it. Because the GTA 6 leak, which apparently was very bad, but I don't even know. So I feel like I wouldn't you want to know
Starting point is 00:34:53 that I don't even know, cause I feel like I wouldn't you want to see the gameplay. I know it's super early, but it's like, cause it's probably better to see while it's jank. Instead of seeing it before you feel like what happened with cyberpunk wherever I thought the cyberpunk was going to change video games. What I learned, well,
Starting point is 00:35:06 what I learned through our cyberpunk crisis. Cause you and, you and Marcus were like, Marcus was emotionally affected by the cyberpunk thing. He wasn't upset by it, but he went out like he was panicking. Cause it was during a high point of the quarantine. Yes, it was strange. The game was strange. What I've learned is the longer a game takes,
Starting point is 00:35:24 it doesn't mean that they're making it amazing. It means the entire thing's on fire. It was also very complicated. They made a bunch of promises that they could never complete cause they basically hyped it to the point where they thought it was going to change the fucking world. But then by the time it came out, everything moves so fast that it looked old immediately.
Starting point is 00:35:41 Yeah, which is why I don't care about the new avatar, the new avatar movie. I already think it looks like old tech, but I don't know. But I will go see the new avatar movie because that's a movie, they had a movie. I don't like to see it be like, I'll go see that because it's a spectacle. And again, it's not IP.
Starting point is 00:35:56 Like I love to go see something that I don't have to see 10 other things to understand what the thing is because I'm sick of just, cause like all I'm doing is watching piles and the hours of ads. I agree. I agree. Anyway, back to your story.
Starting point is 00:36:10 No, that was just it. Now all that really is is that cause they just don't know who this person is. They don't know, they don't know that, but they are insinuating that they believe that it's all connected. Not a story, but something that I, cause I have my little phone here
Starting point is 00:36:24 and I do my scrolls. Yeah, I see your phone, yeah. And I had some constipation issues. No way. And I did just see a, You? Yes, I did. I thought normally your poopoo is like the river
Starting point is 00:36:31 where it just, it's like the Mississippi. Ooh, man, the river. It's myths. WebMD, 19 constipation myths and facts. Oh no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. We're not doing the myths of constipation. You should have a bowel movement every day. Myth.
Starting point is 00:36:48 That's, we are just, again, last podcast left in the side stories. We don't give medical advice here or biological info in any way, shape, or form. Check out this one. Swallowed gum can get stuck. Fact. If you eat too much, if you eat too much.
Starting point is 00:37:06 Everybody's yelling already. Everybody's yelling. We can't just, this can't be about the urban legends of your butthole. No, this is WebMD. If you eat too much. That's all it is. But isn't that interesting?
Starting point is 00:37:17 WebMD is, it's just fake. No, it's not fake. It's fake. Where's, what are you, what are you Rand Paul? What is this? It's WebMD. Web, medical doctor. Well, you know what I'm talking about?
Starting point is 00:37:31 It's just as real as WebMD. This woman's terrifying ordeal after hearing fairy voices while stuck in the woods. Fine. You can do your little story about fairy voices. You can update us as we go with the other myths of constipation. But it's a fact.
Starting point is 00:37:43 If you swallow too much gum, it gets stuck. And you've got a gum ball in your butthole. If you're eating a baseball's load of gum, yeah, it's gonna get stuck in your fucking pipes. But if you have one piece of gum, which I do from time to time, because I don't know where to put it, I'm not trying to throw it on the cement.
Starting point is 00:37:58 I swallow it. I'll swallow it. I'll swallow it. Holding it in won't hurt. It does. That I know is true. That is true. Go on.
Starting point is 00:38:07 Because I was what my mother used to told me, because I remember she, that was the first true understanding of liberty that she gave me as a child, which is, I don't care what anybody tells you. If you have to go to the bathroom, you get up and you go to the bathroom. And she did that forever.
Starting point is 00:38:21 Cause she was like, cause yeah, holding it in, turns you into a Republican. I guess so. It just slowly poisons your guts. It might. All right, here we go. Now this is a woman from a town called, you guys say everything different.
Starting point is 00:38:35 So I'm gonna say that this town is called Meeth, M-E-A-T-H. Sure. Now she said she was terrified. Why? You'll see. Okay. She took it. Not much gum.
Starting point is 00:38:46 Well, she would know that she had nothing, she had something to worry about until she heard this episode. So she said, she believed she had a supernatural experience. Okay. She was out on a walkabout. That's Australian for walking. And a woman, she got lost.
Starting point is 00:39:03 She had walked through two trees, right? Now, she said she was a former skeptic. Not anymore. Not anymore. Does her life change inexplicably in a way that only the fairy con could do for her? Okay. Only Rami Malek.
Starting point is 00:39:16 Fantastic. Possibly could have fooled her. Now she told Dublin Live that she'd be hesitant to return after experience after hearing a terrifyingly light female voice come from the other side. Oh. And she said, I just had to get my steps up
Starting point is 00:39:29 for a challenge that we were doing on work. Is she Irish or Australian? I don't know. No, she's Irish. I just had to get my steps up for a challenge that we were doing on work. I decided to go walk someplace nice instead of just doing my laps in my estate.
Starting point is 00:39:41 It was a nice day. So I said I'd go for a walk in the woods. What was the worst that could happen? Well, that's a horrible thing to think. It turns out most crimes happen in the woods. Yeah. Especially when you go out there, you're jogging late at night,
Starting point is 00:39:53 or you're jogging in the morning and a man grabs you and he diddles you. Absolutely. You've got to be careful. Bears. Lions. You've got to be careful. Anybody diddle you.
Starting point is 00:40:00 Once a bear learns to get a taste for pussy, he'll have sex with you. I don't know if that's true. You can fall and break your hip. No, that's fine. Then the paths lead through two identical trees. Now I stepped through and I put my hands on both trees. People are saying now that this was a mistake.
Starting point is 00:40:15 One was really warm, and the other was wet and cold. I walked on and then I took a left. Uh-oh. It's getting Mexican. Really good, yes. You just got to dial it in. Just got to dial it.
Starting point is 00:40:28 Dial it in, yes. The main path kind of got banished off to the left, and it just went nowhere. It went to a really overgrown forest. Really high weeds and plants. Oh, sounds good somewhere. Now I know it wasn't the path. There were lots of people around.
Starting point is 00:40:41 It was a really popular spot, so I walked back and I thought, oh, this was the main path and I should have taken it the other way. Now I took the other way, and that one similarly went nowhere. Now I went back to the fork to start over, right? I went back and I tried to think, oh, this is maybe the weed that I came, right?
Starting point is 00:40:54 When that also led me nowhere. Sounds like a horrible Dylan Thomas thing. I love it. I try to keep trying paths, right? It's getting quite overcast at this point as well. Sure. Let's see what was going on. There was only three, so I thought-
Starting point is 00:41:06 So far, you're walking in the woods. I'm getting up a bit of it. I'm a bit of a turned around. I'm turned around. It's such a- How long do we have here? I just keep getting turned around. Now I have a very professional job.
Starting point is 00:41:17 She says, I'm not crazy. I'm not crazy. No, you're just going for a walk in the woods. I'm quite logical, but then a call came from the other side and I knew something wasn't right, because as I was going through the path, there was an overgrown area, right? I heard this path and I heard a really-
Starting point is 00:41:31 Of the path of what? I was going overgrown area. Okay. And I heard a really light women's voice. Now, I don't know how quite to describe it. It was really high. She kept going, I love you.
Starting point is 00:41:43 I love you. I love you. I love you. And it hurts. I thought it was some wee ma'am calling for her kids. Oh. But then I heard her laugh. Oh.
Starting point is 00:41:55 And the tittering of her laugh, I know, that was the fairy kind. Wow. Because the tittering sounded like- I don't know. And that's how I knew it was the fairy kind. Because she said that she knew something was wrong. Did she see it?
Starting point is 00:42:10 The first thing was a run. No. So she just heard a random- Tiny voice. Tiny voice. Fairy voice. A fairy voice. And it scared the shit out of her.
Starting point is 00:42:19 And eventually she found her way out of the woods. Thank God. I am so happy she didn't die in the woods. There's paragraphs more of this. I know. And I like that this woman can expand on a story that is literally- It's nothing. Hi, Charlie.
Starting point is 00:42:32 Watch, guys. I watched a skirt when I heard first heard. I thought she was a wee ma'am. I was scared when she laughed. I know when she laughed. I don't think I've heard words in English language for it. I haven't gone and got words for it. It was scaredy-tardy.
Starting point is 00:42:42 That's the way I put it. I was scaredy-tardy. Absolutely. I believe that. Why didn't you try to look at it? You should have tried to see that. Oh, I'm blind. Oh, God.
Starting point is 00:42:50 I couldn't find my way if I wanted to. All right. Well, intriguing story indeed. Hey, that's fun. And it's Irish. Exactly. And again, we will be in Ireland very soon. We can't wait to be in Dublin.
Starting point is 00:43:01 I'm so excited. And they love when we do the accents. Oh, well, they're just so impressed by them. Because the whole thing, they're like, oh, is that the queen, mom? Well, like, no, I didn't wait 12 hours to go piss on her fucking corpse or her fucking face. Fucking, I can't believe it. The idea of waiting 12 hours to see an old dead woman.
Starting point is 00:43:20 I mean, it would be fun just to see her dead, I guess. Yeah, but I'd pay five bucks some dude behind a bridge to see that. Yeah. Yeah. Well, there's a lot of questions that have to be answered there, but in Ireland, do they care about the queen? No, they hate her. They don't like the queen.
Starting point is 00:43:34 No, they hate her viciously. Of course. Well, yeah. They are subjects. They are, they are conquered people. Okay. Yeah, they hate her. So I just don't want to beat them.
Starting point is 00:43:43 They want to beat the living shit out of her. Every single day. She is now dead. We're onto gang sausage fingers. Also, just lastly, WebMD, when it comes to your bowels, castor, castor oil is a cure-all myth. Yeah, don't drink castor oil. I don't know what is castor oil.
Starting point is 00:43:58 I don't know what is castor oil. No, what you do truly, if you really want to do it, you stick your fingers up there and you pop it. You open up the hole yourself and let the shit fall out. Fantastic. You look at me like I'm crazy, but that's it. They say this. Everyone's cringing.
Starting point is 00:44:11 Well, it just wasn't. It wasn't. That is true, though. Like, you, at Side Stories, L-P-O-T-L, at gmail.com, can you fix constipation, but stick your fucking fingers up your butt hole and open it up your butt hole, I submit that you can. Well, that might coincide with myth number 19 here. It's normal to have bloody stool. It's no.
Starting point is 00:44:27 It's definitely not normal. They say that's a myth. I'm not sure. Who said, who would ever do? Only another alcoholic would tell you that. Yeah, that's normal. Yeah. Also, you know what else I learned from our fucking credible listeners?
Starting point is 00:44:37 What's that? Goatsy is an acronym. Goatsy is in the image that shows the man gaping his butt hole. The guy spreading his butt hole? What's an acronym? Guy opens asshole to show everyone. This Internet Keats. These Internet Keats.
Starting point is 00:44:50 These kids. Man, they're smart. I don't know how they learn. I don't know either, but we love them. Life from your grave. No roast as dark as the night, perfect for fueling the cryptid research and mad ravings required for your podcasting. Don't mind the red eyes.
Starting point is 00:45:07 He's just trying to warn you of the bridge. The bridge. Finally, from the caffeine-addled brains of Spring Hill Jack Coffee and Last Podcast on the left, we bring you Mothman's Red Eye Blend. Yes, delicious Panama beans. Go to lastpodcastmerch.com to order yours today. All right, everyone, let's do Hero of the Week. Now, this is actually from last week, but I didn't do it, and I really regretted it.
Starting point is 00:45:42 Okay. So last week, you did something where like a woman helped a man, and you have someone to read. And the other guy was just like, oh, thanks for, I'm glad I can read, because now I wrote all this fucking like QAnon fiction or something, I forgot what it was. Mice families move into Dream Village, built by Gardner, and are hand-fed flowers every day. Now, look at these mice, and they're in a little village, and so there's two families
Starting point is 00:46:07 of mice, and they live in the- They don't treat you with more respect than any migrant has ever been treated. Absolutely. If they put it in a little home, these mice, they're going on an entire fucking apartment complex. They have a whole thing. This is one of the places that one of the mouse lives, it's called the Frog Mouse House, and they advertise pub food.
Starting point is 00:46:30 But now the thing is, what happens is so interesting, because people get all kinds, they give them all kinds of interesting things. They feed them every day, and they make them more little mouse houses. You mean to tell me they get more room service than is currently in human hotels? The mice currently have 40,000 followers on TikTok. I am- Oh, okay. So not only, not only, do they have a solid social media presence, right, in which they could probably already get offers as it is.
Starting point is 00:47:01 Oh, absolutely. They then get free housing. Yes. And then they are fed. They didn't have to go, look, they didn't even put a bowl out. No. They get hand-fed. They're fed.
Starting point is 00:47:10 And so this woman puts daily videos up there of them people feeding the mice, and now mice have a reputation for enjoying garbage, but they can also be seen eagerly devouring flowers. I know. That's true. That is true. We can eat. There's also edible flowers for people as well. Yes.
Starting point is 00:47:27 So these mice- They're not very tasty, though. No. I can't imagine. Anyway, she spends about four or five hours each day with the mice and then live stream. So go and have fun with these little mice. They're super cute. That's fine. I'm glad that, you know, again, resources, I guess it's not money resources, that's fine.
Starting point is 00:47:43 I do think that, like, you know, I'm glad we're treating the mice with respect, but I feel like we could do it. We could do it with a lot of others as well. There was also an Amazon driver, Kevin Rivera, who went into a building that was on fire and saved an entire family. So that was nice of him as well. So he is a runner-up. That's a good runner-up.
Starting point is 00:48:01 He's a runner-up. Look at that fire. He ran in there. So this last shift of that last delivery of the day. Better save those mice. Yep. Kevin Rivera, you're also here over the week, along with those two mice. The mice first, though.
Starting point is 00:48:15 Yeah. He said them first. Yes, of course. A couple of corrections. Number one. This is for listener emails. Straight up. Number one.
Starting point is 00:48:24 Not Corell. Well, the first was a straight-up correction. You know, Marcus has been talking. He's actually been spouting anti-communist propaganda all these years. Like a lived. The dogs in space from the Soviet Union lived. They actually, a lot of them landed. Like a died overheating.
Starting point is 00:48:38 A lot of them landed and made it out. And then, yes. Do I still feel like they were scared? Very much so. Are they dogs? Do they not know what's happening? Sure. But actually, apparently, a lot of the dogs did live.
Starting point is 00:48:51 Really? Yep. And Leica just burned. Well, Leica burned up in the atmosphere. Yeah. Leica did not live. Well, interesting. But yeah.
Starting point is 00:48:59 So it was like, all right. And then I also got some good AI artist feedback about LOAB because obviously we didn't know what the hell we were talking about when it came to what LOAB was or what it means to be an AI artist. I think this is interesting. What are we doing? I see. I've got two letters.
Starting point is 00:49:14 Because I have one AI art letter that says straight up, the thing about AI art in general is that it's difficult because what it does is it sweeps the internet for many other people's stuff. So a lot of the AI art, even in and of itself, is a collaboration. It's a mish-mash of art. It's already on the internet. Right? It's already there.
Starting point is 00:49:36 So there's a little bit, there are some issues of people being like, well, it's using stuff that's already been made and mashing it up. But there's also people that use their own proprietary programs that I got emails from that say straight. It's more about playing with the so-called AI Godhead, whatever it is it thinks that something is. So you use something that's not connected to the internet to do something with art on its own.
Starting point is 00:49:57 But it's still using a series of prompts that it has to get from someplace else. So it's basically the equivalent of an artist who used to draw on caves, then an artist came around using his own scat, and then you're like, you can't use your own shit. That's cheating. That's cheating. Everybody can use brown. And then somebody came in with paint and colors, and they're like, I was just using shit. It's more like you go and you use somebody else's shit to paint.
Starting point is 00:50:20 You see, look, I just found paint. And they're like, no, that's my shit. That's my shit. That's my shit. And they're like, no, no, no, that's paint now. All right. So it's kind of like that. All right, here's some more listener emails.
Starting point is 00:50:32 Because Spooky Season's upon us. It is. And I'm, you know, I don't mind Thanksgiving. I like Thanksgiving. But I'm hopping over it. We'll have Thanksgiving. I think I'm already in Halloween mood. Make Thanksgiving scary.
Starting point is 00:50:42 Sure. But it's after Halloween. It is. Yes. Very much so. Very much so. Month after. A month after.
Starting point is 00:50:50 Yeah. It's November. That's Thanksgiving. In November. Hey, man. Hey, you're not keeping the calendar. That's why I'm over it already. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:50:58 You haven't even thought about it. It's months or nine. It's months or nine. It's after Halloween. It's after Halloween. Yeah. Every year. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:51:06 But yeah. I do know that. I think everything should be so. I think Christmas is spooky. Yeah. So I say keep it spooky to May. Right. Right.
Starting point is 00:51:14 But here we go. All right. Well, you never know what time is. Now, my now ex-husband. Whoa. And I were driving from North Carolina to Florida. We were at the point of needing gas and wanting to switch out drivers. Now we hadn't seen an exit in a while and just decided that no matter what, we're going
Starting point is 00:51:29 to stop at the next place that had gas and maybe grab a snack. Oh, yeah. That's what I like. Indeed. So we drove for another 20 minutes, which is already weird that we hadn't seen an exit in a while and just decided that you know, no matter what, okay, we're going to stop in the next place. Um, sounds like they were having a horrible trip together.
Starting point is 00:51:45 Oh, it's, I mean, now X. Yeah. Um, finally, they just see an exit after driving for 20 minutes that it has a gas station listed as a gas station listed. Right. So we believe that we were around South Carolina at this point. Uh-oh. So we started to pull over and stop there.
Starting point is 00:51:58 So when we get there, it automatically felt weird. We got off at the next exit and it was like turning into this little town and it was like its own little world. There were no signs, no advertisements for restaurants, nothing would you usually see pulling to somewhere off a major highway. It also was immediately gloomy or weather, a little colder, seemed later in the day. Now we got gas and decided to stop at the little strip of shops on the other side of the road.
Starting point is 00:52:26 All that there was was school supply store, right, figure and get some things to doodle on on the road. And an army surplus store, which is always interesting. I guess so. So upon entering the school supply store, it's like that we were at the center of the room. There was no music or noise at all and multiple people all dressed too similarly, dressed at us and just rifling through bins.
Starting point is 00:52:47 It's just a small town. You forget small towns get uniforms. Absolutely. Like you really do. And because if you're all shopping for the same place, it's one store, right? So you address burn and honestly, dress bar, that means you got to be looking to be a pretty hoax. So mirror there for about 20 minutes and the whole time.
Starting point is 00:53:06 No one moved from the bins. Again, you never know because I've seen Marcus in record stores. I, if I go to a record store, I'm there for seven minutes. I'm also like that with museums. I can't be reading all these day. Oh, I go through the museum and I'm like, God, it's seen it, seen it, done it, and then it done it. And I'm done.
Starting point is 00:53:23 Right. I remember it from the country music museum was lefty frizzle's car, which was cool. And then the rock and roll hall of fame, which Marcus loves. He loves. I didn't get it. He went there two days in the row to see a cassette and it took a picture of it. And then people reacted like he found something. Yeah, I don't know.
Starting point is 00:53:37 I could have gotten him a cassette tape. I'll never forget. I told Marcus cause he was like, I like to go. And that's my, I like to go to the record store all the time and I'm like, why don't you just order it? Yeah. But he's like, no, it's the hunt. I can get you.
Starting point is 00:53:50 Cause he was like, I can't get this one record. I can get it for you. I googled it and found it right away to find it organically. And so you again, reader, listener, this is a part of it. You did. So you never know. Right. So no one purchased anything.
Starting point is 00:54:02 No one else came to the store. Right. I bought some pens and they all accepted cash. They moved back by change and coins, right, $3 in coins. Right. So we decided to shake it off. It's a little strange. Right.
Starting point is 00:54:16 We still didn't go next door to the army surplus store. So we walked in. It was the same vibe. It was only one person. They were looking through. Oh, Collins and basket. Right. This was more of a military memorabilia place rather than a things to buy place.
Starting point is 00:54:27 Right. There were two uniforms, vintage knives, helmet, shoes, tools, weapons. There was a kind of, there was a Nazi flag in the frame in the back. You get that a lot in those old stores, right. So we walked around. There was nothing you could want to purchase, right. So it seemed like all of a sudden you were going to leave. Right.
Starting point is 00:54:46 Some of those knives were probably pretty cool. Yeah. But a man came up as they were trying to leave and he's like, leaving so soon. Right. And you were like, oh, yeah, we're going to go, you know, we're going to go. All right. So we went back outside. It was dark.
Starting point is 00:54:59 Like the sun was setting. No street lights, no activities outside, no cars driving by. We walked to our car. We turned to see that the school store is closed. No lights and the army place looks like it's completely shut down as well. Hitch black. Right. Just from our walk to the car.
Starting point is 00:55:13 Now we get in. We are weirded out and proceed to drive away. And we, we turn on the radio and we see that four hours had passed. Right. I was shocked. I looked at my phone to be sure and yes, four hours. This is completely impossible because we could not have been there for longer than 45 minutes. It's still a long time at school supply store.
Starting point is 00:55:34 Oh yes. You say, I say, let's get the hell out of here. And we, we had the way that we came. Everything was backwards. And now there was a detour sign that said that we couldn't take the highway. This is kind of one of those things that kind of freaks me out because I feel like it's going to happen. That was completely fine.
Starting point is 00:55:51 45 minutes ago. Right. We followed the detour, we get back on the road and we're quiet for a large majority of the drive until we found something else to talk about from the podcast we were listening to. Well, I would have just talked about all that creepy stuff they just experienced. You don't know, man. People who wrapped up.
Starting point is 00:56:05 I was listening to a story on somewhere in the skies that was talking about this, a almost mile long UFO that flew over a drive-in that he was at and how everyone got out of the cars and watch it as it shut down the power of the, the place, the, the movie theater, all of the cars, everything powered down. And then afterwards it was more like everyone was so freaked out that no one wanted to talk about it because like everything turned back on as the object passed. Right. Um, so now like it's really strange because now like they've re-brought it up.
Starting point is 00:56:33 She said recently they reached, she had talked with her ex and brought it back up like, they're still communicating. Yes. And they were like, did that happen? They're like, yeah, it did happen. Wow. I think they should get back together. You never know though.
Starting point is 00:56:45 Never know. But the problem doesn't mean necessarily that you should be together, but at the time period you guys led each other through a very difficult situation, that's what they call them show masses. Oh yeah. Show masses. Absolutely. Um, and do a little like, this is another vindication story to me.
Starting point is 00:57:03 I just had this happen to me possibly twice background. Now I've had plenty of paranormal experiences and I'm very sensitive to spirits, right? Me too. I love Scotch. You got him good. Now I'm stationed in Italy, in Italy. Whoa. If you live in a house, it definitely had someone's parents die in it, right?
Starting point is 00:57:20 It's a huge cost, but the person's parents probably died and they decided to rent because everything inside is circa like 1970s, right? Kind of cool. So I make video, hard drives are important. Now, like this is what he does in their time, in his time period, right? Now I ended up losing a hard drive with over one terabit of video on it. That's a lot. I lost it over nine months ago, possibly dropping it for my car somehow after a trip.
Starting point is 00:57:42 I don't know. I usually edit my living room on my laptop, so I automatically search here every time I lose something. Doing this, I turn my entire house upside down. I took every couch cushion out. I took all of my clothes out of my drawers. I've done this on more than one occasion when my OCD sets in and I try to find it again. So tonight, when looking for a spider that I tried to catch, but I lost, right?
Starting point is 00:58:03 Shouldn't kill a cat. I got a spider in your home. It's bad luck. I guess so. Lo and behold, it pops right up. Right in this fucking red glory. It's right there. It looked under behind the couch, but all of a sudden, he'd been looking there countless
Starting point is 00:58:14 times. He's driving his drive and his Nintendo switch doesn't know little people. That's fair. All right. It's not just weed and alcohol. You'd be surprised. What else can cause you to lose stuff early onset dementia, high blood pressure can go into and you go into a foggy fugue state.
Starting point is 00:58:31 You never know. Absolutely. Maybe maybe you ate too much or anything, really anything, CO2 exposure can make you foggy. Yes, it can. Brain tumor at both. Sure, that'll do it to you. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:58:45 You got to be careful. Yes, indeed. You got to live your life every day wondering, is that a headache or do I have a brain tumor? I wonder. Just don't. I mean, love your life. Love the fact that you'll never truly know until it's too late until you make that horrible fucking walk up to the doctor's office and they go like, yeah, Mr. Ripperton, yeah, we're
Starting point is 00:59:02 going to take a look at that. Not going to years. The whole time you don't know and you wonder and you wonder and you love that. You love that. Like with just a headache. And then you laugh when you find out all the thousands of dollars you've spent was all just because you were afraid. You're just afraid.
Starting point is 00:59:15 And then he turns out like, when you go to talk to the doctor about like, what's wrong with you and shit, like, you know, it turns out something else. They say that it's something else because it's like, no, it's just your brain eating itself. Right. And then you can just laugh. No. And then like, hey, at least I don't have cancer.
Starting point is 00:59:28 But I do have this like thing that makes me think I have cancer. So it's kind of like I do. It's almost worse. Maybe you have a little bug up the old brain there. That's a scary thing. When people go swimming and they take something into their nose, then it has a little worm. It's very scary. Also, if you do eat these things, you can get worms.
Starting point is 00:59:44 You can get worms. We're talking about this in the show. Anything. Anything. Well, anything outside, especially anything with the snail. If you find a bit, I mean this, Gissel, this is specifically directed to you. If you see a fish laying dead in a shallow pool, don't cook it or eat it. Don't cook it or eat it.
Starting point is 00:59:59 Why not? Because it's full of worms. And a lot of times that's why it's good to get if like you shouldn't eat roadkill necessarily because if it's hit by a car, it might be fine. But again, a lot of them die of disease and it's got to be real fresh because I've eaten roadkill before. Hmm. I ate a roadkill snake.
Starting point is 01:00:15 When? In 2017. Why? It's a very incredible makeup artist on pretty face. Also, it was a bit crunchy, but she believed that nothing should never not be saved. And so she saw a dead snake on the side of the road and she picked it up and cooked it and brought it in. And then I ate it with her because I was like, I ain't no pussy.
Starting point is 01:00:33 I was saying, but when I was in Gary makeup, I would do whatever. Fantastic. But I got real ill. I felt real weird. I would imagine so. All right, everyone. Thanks so much for listening. Inhale yourselves.
Starting point is 01:00:42 Yeah. You better be careful. We're coming out to the beacon. Yes. You got promo man. You gotta fucking get in there, bro. I think we're already sold out promo complete. I think it's like 50.
Starting point is 01:00:51 There's 50 tickets. And we're also, um, we want to explain to some of our European viewers that the VIP tickets are separate. If you want. Yes. They're not included. It's not like in Merck, where you click your own, the VIP, we streamline things and a little differently.
Starting point is 01:01:10 We're streamlined things. So there it's like, you have to go and it's like an add on or some shit. Yeah. It's confusing. We tried to do it today because we were like, what's going on? And then we were like, it's confusing. And then so yeah. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:01:22 So if you want to just know for the of you, if you want to come the VIP ticket, it provides a whole extra hour of show and it's VIP, you get the last podcast storytellers. We're out there and went to Q and a, we can tell you anything you want. Yeah. Kind of. All right. Yeah. So figure that out.
Starting point is 01:01:38 I don't know what's wrong with those websites out there. Yeah. So Europeans is different because they're a little more cash when you're in the bathroom. All right, everyone. Once again, that's funny. I'm a lot of times though, me three times out of day. I'm a coup. There you go.
Starting point is 01:01:50 Hail yourselves. Congratulations. It's going to be a really great European tour. I can't wait. We're on fire for it. Oh, I'm, I'm on fire right now. I think that's, you need, you have a rash. Oh yeah.
