Yeah, someone's got to oh my god. We're not gonna go into details on that

Welcome to side stories everyone. I am Ben hanging out with Henry We want to thank everyone in Des Moines, Milwaukee Omaha and Minneapolis. We had such a great time this past weekend Thanks to everyone who came out and shared laughter with us We shared laughter and we also honestly it was just nice to be in a sprinter van. It was fantastic I like being in a sprinter van. It's fun. I love Brenda wherever you are. We love you girl Brenda was amazing All right, we got a bunch of fun stories to get to some of them are fun. Well fun. Yes fun for us fun for us To talk about not to live. Okay. Here we go. Yeah, but let's have a fun side story I'm gonna start with this one which Joe. How do we start you want to start hard or you want to start soft?

Let's start hard. Yeah, let's start hard. This story is a Nightmare everybody experienced a lot of trauma on this story and it's wild This is from this is in Pennsylvania Police say Pennsylvania man gave cop a severed head on a platter Admit it to stabbing and dismembering his father. Now, there's a man named Donald Meshie, Jr. He's an old-looking 32. He is a very old-looking 32. He's got the short spiky hair He's got like child bully hair. He does have child bully hair. His eyes are open yet closed

Yes, he his face isn't done yet, but yet he looks like he's 90 He needs to go to prison which he will yes, he will so apparently a family friend called and they could they called the police to Conduct a welfare check in response to calls about this It was an emotional subject at a residence, okay, and I think the emotional subject was Donald Meshie, Jr. Mm-hmm, so they showed up She said the apparently Donald Meshie, Jr. And some form of I don't know what he went to his neighbor who was a family friend and said What's crazy? It's a whole bunch of body parts in my house right now

And I don't know what to do with all this extra meat You know what good fences make good neighbors. I don't need to hear that, sir Well, unfortunately don't now you're bringing me into the story because now I'm complicit and at the very least I've got to go look at a bunch of human body parts now This is definitely a first world problem when I had a bunch of extra meat I just smoked it all off any but then all of a sudden now I'm going to the doctor I'm my fucking blood pressure is up and my cholesterol is up and who's the fucking blame here, huh? Is it the meat is it me or is it the doctor because he's the one who took the fucking tests

Yeah, that's a good point in many ways. It's so it's such a horrible point in others It's you it's definitely not the animal that sacrificed its life to slowly kill suicide. It's not a soldier It's like going to Vietnam. It's an animal's revenge cholesterol We got to beat back the cattle's because next thing we know because they just Population once a surgery, so it's gonna get all over the I was oh, I love cows No, this is a this is a 9 a.m. They get this call, so I like how this is early in the morning They should the police show up and Donald Meshie jr. Just lets him in the house, right? And he's like, oh, you got to see I have all these body parts. You got to jig it out

Well, he continually called them cadavers, which I guess kind of disassociates himself from them being human beings Well, it's they go it is like this. So he showed up. They said the police asked Donald Meshie jr. Hey So where are these body parts? What are you talking about? He's like, oh, it's right here He then goes to the freezer of his refrigerator opens it up. Oh, he takes a I mean this he takes hit Severed head mm-hmm out of the freezer He then gets a plate and puts it on it so they wouldn't have to touch it and then he hands them the plate And then they were like, oh, this is Donald. This is great. Thank you so much Right. I need some backup, please because I don't know what you do as a cop if you are a cop and have ever experienced anything like this before

Side stories LP ot lg mail.com. What happens when you roll into like a Richard Chase type scenario when you are now looking at a person Who is obviously an absolute maniac and he's acting as if he's serving you Apple teasers like you're at Apple piece You know, I actually think it must be a nice day to be a cop case closed. It's done. We've got it We literally have the victim's head on a platter given to us by the perpetrator if you're a cop Thank you. And then of course you quickly arrest them It reminds me of the scene from silence of the lambs where she realizes that she's in the killer's house And then you're like, oh shit, and I'm sure you kind of clench and either you release a fart or you keep it up inside of Your tummy. I'm not sure your body would react though

I guess as you see the person open up the freezer and bring out a severed head very cold head I can't imagine it not being kind of traumatizing. Oh, definitely traumatizing and I also wonder it's interesting how like they don't panic Immediately shoot this guy. You know what I mean? It's already done. Yeah, it's already done. It's already done But Meshie then said they're just yeah, this is a thing There's also this like this body parts in this other bed over here And he acted as if like he was surprised to find it and he said that these were parts of what he called a cadaver doll He said that one day he came home, right? And he said there was a doll in the shape of a man that spoke and listened to him who happened to be his father

But he said at that time he had transmuted into some form of doll and then he stabbed him He said for three minutes and he dismembered all the body parts himself But then it was weird because then he was surprised to find them like he was an Alzheimer's patient at an Easter egg hunt Well, my goodness and even an Alzheimer's patient at an Easter egg hunt can get lucky every now and again You never know where they're gonna hide the eggs. Maybe in the bathroom. I'm saying you can hide them from yourself I blame the movie the boy For this that movie it triggers me I love the movie the boy the boy. Is it a doll? Is it a boy?

We still don't know and also the movie may of course in the movie may she dismembers a whole series of different people Trying to make her best friend and perhaps that's what this man was doing Although I don't think he was looking for friendship on account that he seemed to alienate everyone he's ever spoken to Because usually he talks about all the body parts in his house so allegedly he had arms legs and And a head in garbage bags in the basement. We still don't have we don't know how many victims are involved here Right now they're saying it's just one They believe that he was the head was in the freezer and the arms and the legs were in the basement

Which I guess is good For if you have too much stuff going on in the freezer, I don't know where the torso is But the officers doing their due diligence They did confirm the body parts are his father and that was a 67 year old and that was Donald Meshie So Donald Meshie jr. Killed Donald Meshie senior, but I guess Is that what happens? Yeah, aren't you a jr. When do you kill your father Henry's a Browson Thomas jr. The silver spoon little poor blue man on the moon. I didn't know that was gonna be what that song is actually about But Donald Meshie jr. Definitely looks like a guy that you have played some form of online game against

Oh, absolutely But he's gonna be in jail now for a period of time Obviously, he's still he is charged with the crime and he is presumed innocent But I think that it's gonna be pretty easy to figure out the culprit much like how OJ is so afraid to ever come visit LA again because he's if he's like basically if I sit down in a restaurant I don't know if I'm gonna be sitting next to the guy who did it Absolutely, and of course OJ always sitting next to the guy who did it if he is sitting next to a mirror So interestingly enough, I actually watched the movie seven last night. Great fantastic relaxing

Strangely, yes, of course Because Gwyneth Paltrow my lover has faded a little bit. Yes, although. She is still stunning and beautiful. She's beautiful She's a great actress. Yeah, she smells great according to the candles according to the candles and I've heard endless Reports from her on the blind items. I read that. She's a lovely woman. I'm sure self-effacing Maybe she likes a crystals a bit too much and maybe she's trying to you know Bend the minds of a bunch of 30 year old white women with her goop line But I don't know maybe when it comes down to it What's just what's merch if it's not used to destroy our society?

Absolutely, and of course the candle has been known to start fire So be very careful with the candle got popping and crackling. It got crackling poppin in it Be very very careful with Gwyneth Paltrow's pussy candle. However What's in the guac? What's in the guac? Avocado and better not be yogurt because when they started doing that when the fab five did that and they got one What's his name the guy who's obviously not a chef who's just the model who put a bunch of yogurt inside the guacamole I just was right and I'm not even Mexican and I was offended well, of course. Well Donald meshy jr. 32 He is of course accused of homicide and running a horrible horrible restaurant

Oh, man, I just eat it you would probably take a bit of it a bit of the cheek meat though Wouldn't you people have always accused me of Henry you'll eat anything Henry. Oh you fucking you should say gormand But they do seem to hint that I'm some sort of hogdish figure, but I'll tell you what man I would eat ethically sourced human meat. Oh, isn't that nice? So it has to be somebody I don't like or it has to be tofu because that was that that remember There was that short period of time the people were making food or like tofu style Meat that was made to taste like other things and one of them was human meat, but they just cheated and made it taste like pork So it doesn't fucking matter you're not really eating it

You don't know if you're eating human meat was the time you go to some edgy restaurant That's gonna serve you human meat. I bet you son even gonna be that they're just gonna be lying try to appear to be more Metal than whoever fucking whatever burger restaurant they're next to well I certainly hope it's not human meat Because then somebody would have to die wouldn't that well unless they already were died unless they already died and honestly because once you're dead We are just me well speaking of dead this next story takes place in Mercer County in Ohio Now the meat on these three boys might be a little bit tainted. This story is very unfortunate This is this is like a nightmare. It really is it's about three brothers and don't I have I have two brothers

So there's three of us too. God, so isn't that nice? Yeah Anyway, they died because they got stuck in a manure pit. Yeah, and they were overcome by fumes. Yes The deceased brothers Gary Todd and Brad whoopker The rescue the rescue crews tried to find them But they weren't there in time and they died they were fine. They were found unconscious in a sea of Maneuver, which is not fun. I not fun. What is it? What is it in the in the feces that kills you? It's a gas that comes off. It's a carbon monoxide and some other like it's the so two of them They died of asphyxiation. They're not quite sure how the they're not quite sure how the third one died

But I think it was the poo poo flu But also man that is the single scariest thing on the face of the planet I guess you know what? There's been a couple of scenarios that have come up this last couple months that are scarier than this But also just the idea of drowning in a giant bat of shit Right, that is like the one real thing that keeps me from being a farmer Yeah, that's the early mornings and the hard work the milking and I love all milk Yeah, but really I don't know if you understand the process of milking. It's not quite as

Erotic as you think it might be. I just get some of that fish You get some of that fish. Oh, yeah, you get you crawl on down there. Whoo. It's supposed to be sweet I think your cows are gonna have a union complaint um, so You smell the manure Goes up into your brain. Yes, then your brain is like we got to shut off And then just a fate that no one dying deserves falling then face first Theoretically in a pile of shit. Well, if you're dead already, then you don't know

I think you pass out And then you might drown in it. Yeah, I mean to that is the kindest way that goes Because it's better than falling in while you're alive and then you slide through the Various all of the piles of manure to the bottom and then can't get back to the top and then you Then you exfixiate inside of it. That is worse The brothers were in there. They were trying to fix the manure the manure pump The manure pump, which I I guess is sort of the anus of the farm. I guess you want to get the shit out I don't know where it goes. I don't know. I mean when it comes down to should manure be outside

But also man, this is another thing. I think it's an important lesson here Never send all three of the of the next line into the manure pump like send one in send the weakest son Don't send the other two. You need to keep someone to run the farm Now you gotta think about that with the park's family We should ask them how their manure pump is and when they better I'll be careful because they all have families and marcus needs to be on the show So we can't have marcus being sliding some manure pump just because he's the last of the line Absolutely not marcus is not allowed near any amount of feces other than george's little poop

And marcus is all marcus is allowed to be near his own shit. Yes. He is. So yeah, it's hydrogen It's hydrogen sulfide and carbon monoxide. That's what they huffed and that's when they fell in To a pile of manure reminds me naked gun. I've been swimming in raw sewage. I love it I love it. I also reminds me of backs of the future Because I actually just watched that last night We went to a little we we hired a little private theater Because you could do that here in burbank and we went to see back to the future of Jackie's birthday. Oh, he's nice Jackie's 34 years fun. Wow. She's still a baby. There she is

This is a fun story. This is a more fun story before we get into another depressing story Um, this from this from the website phantomsandmonsters.com. Is it really cool? Honestly? I was like, I like their coverage I love it. It's good cryptid news. I can't speak to the other articles in it. But this was really funny um, this this is another That we have now again with the last two years We've covered so many different stories of flying humanoids so many whether they be the the rocket man out here in LA What we've seen in Chicago Yes, the moth man

There's a lot of mysterious things in the sky and I don't really know what is up But this one is another really like it's a clear-eyed sighting of something that definitely should have it should not have been there Seven foot tall yellow-eyed winged being observed that wisconsin state fair This is very very interesting. Um, and this comes from an actual first person This actually comes from our first person description of the base. Also, we have to uh clarify as well the wisconsin state fair Uh during when people saw this air quotes demon That's what some people are referring to it as a christian rock band was performing The name of that christian rock band skillet skillet

Which has nothing to do. I usually there's some like it's yeah like jars of mud or like feets in the sand Or jesus is my asshole or some bullshit where it's like skillet I don't really understand how ash browns have anything to do with jesus christ It's the worst christian band name. I've ever heard awful. Maybe it's like home skillet. Do you remember that term? So here we go. This comes from the mouths of babes the young college student that actually saw the scripture Okay, I was with another person. It was about my age. We were talking about the concert that I let out about two hours That's wisconsinist. Yeah. No, you mean it's just done. Yo, yo, yo, yo We were just in wisconsin and how many people were like, oh, we don't have an accent

You'll have an accent. That is bigoted against my people. I don't appreciate that It was very nice when I got to mention the word plague on stage and then marcus tried to make fun of me In milwaukee not realizing i'm in the land of the long age No, it was it was honestly nice to be in the big thick bosom of the midwest One of my partners suddenly yelled what the fuck is that? I looked up and there were about 30 feet in front of us towards the park a lot and was what looked like a very tall band And that's a turn irish But it wasn't like any person that i've ever seen before

It was about seven feet tall and thin but still looked very silent It was cold black and had two glowing yellow eyes and it had bat like wings literal fucking wings It's bad bad bad Bet like it's like boston fucked some i don't know horrible person in a retirement home Yes, and this is what this is the accent. I'm sorry Later on fucking wings that must have stretched out 12 feet from tip to tip coming out its buck You're making people in wisconsin angry. That's why everyone's like, oh people in the midwest are so nice

No, we're just we have a hair trigger. So if we don't plaster on the smile It just turns deadly very quickly. Honestly anger them most people midwest are kind of chilly until you get to know them Yeah, that's true. So, uh, I'll go back to normal so we can really you can hear the description of this character It was about seven feet tall and thin but looked very solid It was cold black and at two glowing yellow eyes and it had bat like wings literal fucking wings All right, so this thing looked like a demon from the depths of hell So apparently so apparently this thing was in the parking lot and it was fascinated with a bunch of other people Striking what was I guess like where the parking shit was. I don't know. Yes, they were out there cleaning up trash

By the main stage a lot of pbrs a lot of me glorious a lot of probably vomit as well I imagine uh, so this thing apparently took a couple steps towards the stage It looked like it wasn't all that steady on its feet, but I wasn't close enough to see what its feet looked like It stood there for about 10 seconds before it turns its head before it turned its head and looked right at us The air felt like it was drained straight out of my lungs And I felt an overwhelming sense of terror not fear but absolute terror Like my life was going to end right then and there and this thing was going to snatch my soul and drag it down to hell This is all judgmental. Well, it's a little bit judgmental just because the mothman has kind of creepy eyes and wings

He's trying to warn you. He's trying to help humankind. We don't know to This at this point and correct me if I'm wrong, Henry I don't think the mothman has a uh has a kill list Oh, no the mothman killed anybody yet as an entity the mothman is a harbinger of doom So when you see it doesn't that mean a warning a warning that's what I'm saying I believe the mothman is entirely innocent. I think the mothman is just there as a Function of the the psychic crisis that it understands that it's trying to send into you So do you think there's maybe something going on with the christian rock band skillet?

I think that's maybe the mothman was there to warn the band Maybe one of the members has been hoffing paint and another member looked at Pornography and one member didn't do their prayers last night So they're going to be some kind of monster and they're going to need to go to therapy like metallica I think that skillet should break up I think that would it would help all of us So this thing it stood there for 10 seconds The air felt like it was drained out of their lungs and then it flapped its wings rapidly a couple of times

Almost like it was stretching them out and then took off into the air and was gone It was swallowed up by the night and was done in a matter of a few milliseconds But it's interesting because then the investigator of the website followed up and asked this person a whole bunch of questions And then they answered it very thoroughly and their partner is too scared to come out and say On the record what they saw as well. So it seemed to really freak people out Yeah, I would honestly it would be one of those where I don't know if I dropped my beer or slammed my beer I don't I would I might just take a nap I because I think that I'd be overwhelmed fight or flight

I think I'm more of like a curl up and sleep it off and then who's gonna Kill me when I'm sleeping you you don't want to hit a man with glasses. Would you I feel like that's a great defense Just curl up and take a freaking nap. That's what I would do if I saw this What happens if you see a brown bear? You're supposed to lie down on the ground. Oh, but the these flying entities I don't know what they are why they are so prevalent. Why they are so prevalent right now I don't know why no idea. They are everywhere. Oh, man. We don't need more harbingers of doom I mean, I don't want any more harbingers of doom. Yeah, the doom. We don't the hard It's the harbingers of doom. We're second clean all in February of 2020. We're in the doom now

um also on 9 11 But now we're here, you know the results of the whatever the 20 year forever were that uh, we are our entire generation had to deal with Yes, we are in half of our entire lives and of course We'll be talking about the Taliban and all the exciting things happening in the Middle East from our perspective on top at Just the human perspective, of course not. I've never been on the ground Oh, you haven't been to war. No, believe it or not that didn't want me But I actually made a list of other wisconsin cryptids. We'll get the hodag. There is a bunch of deal. Tell me about the hodag What is the hodag? I have no clue what this is. I've never heard of this before

I saw this on this list. It is a creature that apparently it has the head of a frog The grin in face of a giant elephant thick short legs set off by huge claws the back of a dinosaur And a long tail with spears at the end which just sounds like a mayor's wife It well or the mayor themselves The hodag is it's extremely famous in wisconsin. I actually thought that this was more of a nationwide cryptid No, it's not it is a technically it is a very famous hoax But it is very important to the it's rhinelander. Where is rhinelander rhinelander? Yeah, it's in wisconsin Yeah, is that a town? I believe it's north of stevens point. We wrestled rhinelander. I debate that a heavyweight contender

And rhinelander the town if you go It's almost it's not quite like point-pleasant or like where you see um mothman like west virginia or mothman um flat with monster like uh the southern Uh newton southern new jersey on northern pennsylvania a little bit like that organ where the uh bigfoot is or florida Are you trying to have sex with me? No, i'm just saying if you want to talk about that You got to be specific about the area of the country. I was thinking loch ness scottland in the way that they completely um Marketed their entire town around rhinelander. This statue is great. The statue is great and the town talks about it

It's not quite as prevalent again as loch ness, but if you go to rhinelander You go to a bar and you talk about the hodag you will have people who say they saw it You will have people even though it is a air quotes a hoax People now they imagine it and in wisconsin there are a lot of crazy animals in those woods Well, you do so you never know when the hodag is going to come for you and your family There's multiple lake cryptids in wisconsin. You got the rocky of rock lake This is me just doing fan service in wisconsin serving. I like they said mine. I was mine There's the devil's lake monster. Who's in baraboo. Is that baraboo baraboo? Of course

We actually pass baraboo on our trip. Oh, this is very exciting content But baraboo is where they have the kissle car museum If you ever want to go see the defunct kissle cars the person who created the kissle car Love two-wheel cars and a bunch of cars that evidently would explode Yeah, they went out of the well-made cars Apparently not because they went out of business, but they are in the museum But the one thing the area does have that is prevalent is the is what we've covered another shows Is thunderbirds

The idea of giant birds. Yes. And so that is obviously a part of what we talked about when we've talked when we talk about Whenever we talk about flying humanoids because you never know like is it just one of these giant birds is there a possibility for some form of older Bigger bird like that was maybe that do dinosaur something like that in the forests of wisconsin That's the great thing about going not to just blow the midwest, but I the summer in the midwest is so nice That was the nicest time to be there. Oh, it's so perfect, but there's so much woods. There's so much greenery There's so much land and there is wildlife and there are people

Constantly out there whether it be hunting season or just farming. They're looking up to the skies crazy stories Come from the old drunken eyes of a good old wisconsinite And this is actually this is where I'll push back because I think some people say like oh, they're just all fucking drunk But there are sometimes when I'm more right when I'm drunk. Of course sober. Yeah, it's 85 percent of the time I'm better smarter faster when I'm drunk versus sober Absolutely, you see me. Of course. I do see you see my super. I'm like my pup eye You do get stronger as you were able to drift me across the street And I think it was maybe philadelphia a few years back when I literally fell out of an uber and you

Drugged me drugged me across the street. We're back there, baby. I can't wait to Get your unconscious body into a hotel room again. I can't wait also just a little follow-up on skillet The christian rock band they formed in 1996. It's uh, it's a husband and wife band And then there's I hate that. I hate that. Yeah, that's john cooper and cori cooper and then Can we play a sample of skillet? Well, they did receive grammy nominations for their songs collide and comatose And um, they're certified album and double platinum. I'm gonna here. I'm gonna put my cans on can we play a little bit of Skelet, I just want to see what this is. They have a song called monster. Let's hear this song monster by skillet The secret side of me

Uh-huh. Oh, they just tapped into the christian market. This is I I hate this Get this off. You shut this off Get off get this off. Oh my absolute garbage Can't believe it. Can't believe we gave it airtime I mean, we're keeping it in so you know And obviously now maybe we'll get maybe the skillet army is gonna come after us What's it as bad as I thought it could be? Oh, I've been to some christian rock concerts back when my

I was forced to go in the cool christian scene. There's nothing worse than it's like, yeah Jesus was mine tattoos. Also. Jesus doesn't mind body piercings. Look at his wrists I don't want to talk about it I just had such like That's what they do. Of course the messages are all the exact same when it comes to atrocious Ideals of religion. Okay. This is a story that is also about the repercussions of christianity But it's a much sadder story and it's and it's really it's it's a fucked up tale that just shows You know what we as a country need what if there's a three-day break from the internet?

I mean besides us you still to listen to us You are stuff gets physically downloaded onto your show. Well, I do under your tablets or whatever speaking of religion Ironically, I do like the idea of just one day off one day off disconnect And uh, yeah refresh restart your brain the whole country the whole world needs just one day Let's restart just don't walk away moment what normal was because this ain't it honestly It's not because just you got to get off the internet because it's driving people insane This guy this story is so sad because it involves children being hurt But this guy Matthew Taylor Coleman

He was quote-unquote enlightened by QAnon to kill his two kids and they were toddlers They were they were young kids and it was all in the name of it's all in the name of QAnon And I don't even know how he got here. I don't know how he got here either I followed Q fairly closely in a political sense, but now Q is it's it's gone. It's hack. It's over Q is over It needs to stop. It's not it's not just political anymore. No now would say it's full rpg It's and it went pat it's been a lark for the last five years, but now it is just full on just sci-fi Like it it's it's got nothing to do with any branch of reality. It's not real It's barely even relevant. He had that whatever it was hasn't posted since january. It's over. Isn't it just the guy

Isn't it the fuck it was Ron Watkins and his son. It's the two of them. It's the Watkins family They're just following this ugly. Yes nerdy incel and his dad. Yes. I don't it's the same shit All right, um, but he was enlightened because what he said is that he believed that his wife possessed serpent dna Oh my god She had passed it to the children and so he killed them with a a spear gun. Okay, so he killed which because he is a Surf instructor a surf instructor and so he had it. He drove down to mexico to do it Okay, so did he think that's going to be like what happens in mexico stays in mexico?

I had to be thinking that was like, where'd the kids go? Oh, you just left them in mexico was this There was an interesting or was he trying to go catch some big waves after he did it Because this man was so scary about this story is when I think of surfers I still think like point break and I think like hotbots cool, dudes I always want if I was if I was into the boys, I'd be down at the beach looking at the server boys I love it. It was a board Yeah, that's a nice. Yeah, it's a good surf practice on me I just don't think usually of like in shape

Surfer people to be the ones who are going to go kill their children with a spear gun because they believe that QAnon Told them that they have serpent DNA. It just shows you how widespread this Disgusting cultish phenomenon is I think that it actually infects the crunchy Yeah, as just as much as the evangelicals. It's what we keep talking about how the anti-vax people are just it's dudes with fucking like conch shell necklaces like the puka shell necklaces and fucking the far far right It's this very very strange thing where those two worlds touch tips and he is right in the middle of it

Where he it's just it's unbelievable because he actually wrote something Like vaguely normal on his last post where he said that he believed that we were living in some form of Covid dark ages and then maybe that once we're past this time period. We would have a new Uh, we would have a new renaissance just like when we talked about how the black plague set the stage for the renaissance Which actually sounds like he's acknowledging covid and he's like he's in the world of sense kind of but he wouldn't post about his hidden beliefs Which is that he was had this idea Of what I don't know what chapter of Q anon says it talks about serpent DNA I'm not quite sure but he took the kids down to mexico because it's both highly planned

And impulsive and completely stupid right so the plan was wrong because he I guess he thought he'd drive to mexico because that would I throw people off the scent even though he immediately Confessed to the police that he did it after his wife when he disappeared It's wife called the police and said that my husband and my family have been missing for 24 hours He drove down to mexico. He checked into a hotel with the two kids who could see any security cam He's got the two kids with them. He goes to sleep. They wake up dawn They see him leaving with the two kids about four hours later He comes back without the kids and he just left them in the in a field

He one of them that both were murdered with the speargun and then they were basically Stabbed over and over again with a wooden stake and then he left them out there. It's it's just this And then he came back. I think thinking that you know, he could just do it. There is this idea too That we're stuck in that because they believe on some level that what they're doing is righteous or a part of some massive mystical quest that they can just show back up and the police won't arrest them like they'll be like Transparent to repercussions. Yes, they're almost cloaked in their own insanity So the agents they discovered the bodies again of a 10 month old and a two year old Devastating and the the agents immediately called the the border guards and they're like, you know

This dude's going to be coming back to the United States at some point soon And he was arrested right there at the port of entry So I can't imagine what I don't know anything about the wife. I just can't imagine she thought this was going to be happening And what a horribly sad story be so careful And it's hard. We were talking about this during our q&a and thanks for all the great questions And you wonder if someone could have just like helped him somehow to be like yo bro This isn't the right direction. You should be going or as you mentioned before Henry Like I guess if he kept all of this stuff inside until he didn't and when he like chose to

Let his um when he showed when he chose to not hide his love under a bushel His flame under a bushel It ended in double murder. I don't know what the hell happened here I I'm certain more information will come out because it's seen it didn't seem like Like he was posting q shit. It just seemed that he He's a part of one of these like new churches, right? Like one of these like weird where like the ones that listen to skill it Stuff like that that that environment where it's very much like, you know I like I don't know how to put it where it's like younger people in it and it's not catholicism or some form of like

Some form of pros and pros new new jesus now. It's all bullshit And but he was very vocal about his christianity and constantly posting about god and and and how Beautiful his wife is and how beautiful his kids are and like he's very very like overwrought posts about like filled with like Weird surfer jargon and like modern christian jargon and I don't really know Where the q shit fits in right and again, you know for legend has helped you that's fantastic No judges truly whatever you have to do to survive this world. The only thing that I always remind myself is They were they they're not your true friends. If all of a sudden you show up You're like, I don't really believe this and then they then they get mad at you and they kick you out

And that's one of those things that I don't like. I don't believe there's I don't believe it's uh It's all been shaken. It really has been it has all been fake And just not to get too much in the details But so the daughter she was shot in the heart with the speargun And then he shot his son, but apparently his son didn't die right away. So then he shot him several times with a fucking speargun Um colman claimed that he hurt his hand in the process all poor guy But he that's weird because he actually had a chance, but like his son didn't die right away So theoretically he had a chance to be like, no, this this is not right. He

It's just disgusting. There's a phenomena that we talk about with family annihilators that I mean, it's very like youtubey So take it as you will but the the concept of covert narcissism or chris watz when he killed his family It's the same thing where he had to kill his kids twice The first time it didn't take and so he had to do it again So he had the opportunity to stop and and be bounced out of whatever the fuck had taken over his mind But obviously he a switch gets flipped and at some point you live this whole life as the stereotypical Cool great dad that's always there and super until your kids or whatever and maybe that's and that's a construct That's the fake dude. There's somebody else in there that is this resentful person that is

Views all of the people around him as essentially a nuisance as a somebody that's holding the people that are holding them back and They decide they're not people anymore because that's what it is. It's very similar to the Lori Vallow and Chad Daybell case where they made the weird inner choice for themselves They said our kids are zombies now, so they're not people anymore. We can do whatever we want to them So it dehumanizes them and in my in my mind. It's like are they truly sick? Or is it also just this way to validate a thing that you also are having an impulse to do? It's like is q really something he really believes in or is this just guy is this guy just a family annihilator that found a thing

That became an excuse for him to do the family annihilating So he would kind of save himself the blame and the guilt. Well, you don't have a lot of time to think about it All right, it's slightly well definitely a much much lighter story This dude there was a dude with a foot fetish, right? I love this story is amazing so Other countries have this thing called a national health service that evidently you can call right? Yeah, whatever man. I guess if you want to be weak you can see a doctor. Sure. So this dude admitted to making hundreds of nuisance calls To the national health services one one one line

In order to indulge in his sexual foot fetish. This guy's name is richard william cove He's 45. He's from west sussex made 1200 calls costing the national health service $21,000 And what he would do you pretend to be an elderly woman and he would ask the call He would ask call handlers about their feet. I heard a scourge is made of golden benefit merchants the young man young man tell me How stinky are them toes? I'm going I'm having a heart attack. I'm having a heart attack. Well, please come and remove your shoes What you're coming to? Well, according to people who took some of the calls

They say that he his calls were for his own enjoyment and personal benefit According to pc quail He says he said that he had a sexual foot fetish which he indulged during most of the calls the investigation began in 2019 which means there was some true detective work. There's a lot of money put into this two years Of investigating the guy who calls trying to get you to discuss your feet so he can come Yes, do I have an emergency? Could you please pour some coffee grounds and see it sort of look like they're all covered in messy messy dirt And I have to clean with my mouth

Well, is that not a health issue? I I feel like I'm going to court none and I'm this guy It kept him alive But how do you do without the let me ask this okay use your brain to try to exercise this No with the foot fetish. Maybe I'm wrong. He's in the goal to see the feet Right. I guess you can hear people describe their toes Maybe he's looking on the internet feet But my thing is like what is the not the like what are you jerking off to when you call and you say like Do you call and say like I wish you'd come and suck on my feet, bitch?

Or do you call like do you just hear someone describe feet or do you describe your feet to them? Because I thought with a foot fetish you like to see the feet. You like to see them either dirty or clean You like to smell the feet like it's like tactile. You like to lick the toes. You like to scrape the heel You know you suck on it. You get the sometimes you get dirty socks and you sniff on them All I know is if I can find somebody whose foot fetish involves just rubbing my feet Uh, then I will be the happiest man on earth if that's somebody's fetish, which I know for side stories lpotl gmail.com Are you willing to massage kissles now willing if they love it to the point where I'd say stop with the foot massages already But I don't think I would ever say that so this investigation lasted from April 2019 to April 2021

Um a lot of man hours on that a lot of man hours Evidently, uh, they say he made false personal details false telephone numbers and false ailments So we'd be like I gotta I gotta knit you throughout hot and feet. Um, I just don't think it's the worst thing I've ever heard It's just strange. It's very interesting. It is very specific and I don't know why it had to be police And ambulances and that's very interesting and also again, how you do without seeing them feet I don't know. Well, either way, he's gonna be sentenced Coming up September 13th They say the nature of the calls have caused a lot of unnecessary distress to our staff

Who are working tirelessly to get people the help they require. I get it. It's a waste of time I know that it's wrong, but I just I'm trying to figure out. How does the fetish part work? We're gonna have to ask him We're gonna have to figure out their email us. Um speaking of emails I want to talk to I want to talk about an issue that came up last week And I just want to say the the amount of stuff. Oh my god. Yes So I mentioned how I ate butter as a child We I have since when we talked about in the q&a because it came up in every single q&a

I had a lot of butterheads out there a lot of butterheads out there. Um, I yes, I did eat butter as a child I did like eating the crunchy crack the country crack. I like a margarine That's what we had as a child because my parents were part of the 90s. Everything's diet. It's not even food It's not it was awful, but I like it. I like the taste of butter. I used to take a little spoon of it, right So let me just describe What happened to our emails when I said hey email us if you like to eat butter Uh, first of all, I'm kind of emotional about the support I got because I really did too much The whole community got together and they really made it. I heard you and I love you for it

I want to say thank you for seeing me for acknowledging me and not being there for me This is not a moment for you. Also, we did a q&a during our q&a's Uh, we did do a test. We we polled Des Moines. Yes, look at her butterheads. Yeah, and Omaha Des Moines You congratulations. Oh, yeah, so many butters. That is I want to say probably 800 butterheads. Yeah in Des Moines We walk you with a nice just a good humble, maybe 20 percent Minneapolis, they're a little too their liars. Yeah, they're a little like We're the big city Des Moines. They love their butter. Um, so here are the breakdowns because Joel Broke down these emails that we we received

We have and it's now more than this 250 confirmed butter eaters, right? And then some people also say eating margarine, which is good, you know That counts margarine and butter. Well, it does couple the two three people said they never eat butter Right, which is interesting. That's never eat butters. That's fine. Whatever. Okay. I guess you just got mad number one someone some one email that said that they eat whole blocks of cream cheese Who seem to have misunderstood the prompt of the email? Well, the cream cheese is that's I mean the whole block is not normal But it's at least it's something that you you can't eat and there was supposed to butter one single email that says I compulsively eat butter, but I hate it

That's hell that is hell utter I don't know and everyone said there was the most common way of eating butter is by chomping into sticks followed by spoonfuls Followed by slicing slivers by eating it with the little pads if you just cut the little pads off that eat it And then then I do say Joel did include in this a fair number of judgy whiners who complained about watching people eat butter Which also like how'd you get into this scenario? Because if you're mad about this if you're mad about watching people eat butter How'd you get yourself into a scenario where you're just watching people eat pure butter?

Bro, you're just hanging out all of a sudden dude opens up the fridge grabs a stick of butter You just stare at him, but you're in his house. You're in his house. So is he paying rent? You what are you gonna do? What are you gonna do? And then it's like is this worth throwing away a whole friendship for what if you find out? It's your spouse all of a sudden you didn't know that you married a butterhead and now next thing you know There's butter everywhere butters in bed buttering you up. They want to make you a turkey like Jerry Seinfeld or like kramer did on Seinfeld Um, I don't know what I would do. I don't think it's grounds for divorce No, I mean it's a lot grounds to like don't have butter in the house

But the thing is about eating the butter and I'm gonna put this out there because we're an educational podcast Is that you got to watch again your cholesterol? And that's why I did stop eating butter. I'm reformed. I do. I mean I eat a fuck ton of butter But I don't eat butter on its own Because I know that will affect my heart one day and I knew I had to move past it So you know what I moved on to what I love you But it's anything about olive oil Olive oil I can drink an entire shot glass of olive oil. You are so much. It's so much worse. No, it's not that makes me fucking european

That makes me like no europeans don't take shots of olive oil Now we're gonna get olive oil I mean the olive oil is incredible olive oil has like there's so many flavors of olive oils There's there's there's so many different ways you can you can put like little things of sage in there make it sage Olive oil you could make it like I oh, you know, I got some serrano pepper Olive oil. Oh, I like it because it also you get a nice loaf of bread Well, yeah, if you put the bread the bread makes you want I'm just saying I could take a shot of it. I could I don't off. I don't often

Okay, all right Well, uh, just lastly here in as far as stories go and we're gonna cover this Uh, as it continues on Robert Durst, he's finally getting tried 78 years young. He looks like prison. He does not he looks like a cadaver He looks like a cadaver at all whatever that man did one of the only impressions I ever did spelled Beverly wrong Oh, man. I can't I spelled Beverly wrong. That's kind of good. That's yeah, call me now. Call me now All right, let's build Beverly wrong. Uh, so he is on trial for One of his murders this involves Susan Berman. I'm sure whoever watched the jinx you will remember Susan Berman

She was killed in the year 2000 At the age of 55 in her Los Angeles home He wrote a letter he basically admitted to doing it and then this is what Durst had to say during testimony He says I have difficulty believing it myself. It's very difficult It's very difficult to believe to accept that I wrote the letter and did not kill Susan Berman So he's trying to pretend no, that's not how you defend yourself. No, he's like I wrote the letter, but he didn't do it He's probably all over the place to be fair. I think he's a yeah, he's not all the way there to be fair I think he's having a great time in prison judging by the photos

Um, he I don't know. I mean he's 78. He's gonna be dead very soon He says I decided that instead of calling 911 I would send the police the letter telling them that Susan was dead in her house. No, he's just he's full of shit Robert Durst has no clue what he's talking and then he says I spelled Beverly wrong Um, the handwriting of the note and the same this spelling match the the the letter from Durst And that is of course where the dude from the jinx was like, I think we got him Although I talked to myself all the time in the bathroom. I do too and I'll be like I can't tell you how many times I've been like I'd fucking kill him. I'd kill him again. I didn't kill anyone

When you're in the bathroom, we keep saying I didn't kill anyone. I didn't kill anyone Well, I I mumbled to myself all the time and I could see if he really is to truly impulsive dude To say they'd been like When he did the whole thing when he said that like, you know, he might be doing it to like Because he had like an intrusive thought and then he just spilled out of his mouth But you know, again, most doesn't look good. No and most of us don't have a body count No, uh Durst so he is just just to keep track here Berman he killed Susan Berman

He also definitely killed his wife, although he was not charged with that. That's Kathleen McCormick. That was in 1982 Yes, and then of course he killed his neighbor and dismembered him and somehow got off because of self-defense He is just so he's got three. So this man is a he's a serigal. He's a good idea. Oh, definitely But anyway, so we'll we'll keep you up to date if there's anything cool that comes out of that case Also the jinx that documentary it was so good and I think it did kind of kick off Um, some good documentaries when it comes to true crime Um, he also told the court that quote. I was hiding from Janine Pirro Uh, who is uh, she was the district attorney at westchester and now she's a fox news host and I know janine

That she's fucking batshit crazy. Yeah She's one of the craziest people I've ever seen and the idea that she had any power is really really scary. Yeah, it's not good So anyway, there you go. Robert Durst. He's back. They're gonna throw the fucking book out on my think It's I mean, I think it's about time. Who knows? I mean, I might be wrong, but I do believe that they're gonna The thing about him is what's kind of interesting is he's not Giving up fighting. No, I mean, I don't know. He's a very proud man I think that it's gonna be kind of similar to How they uh, they did get Bill Cosby, but then they all fucked up

We're it's gonna finally it's about the principle of the thing at some point These guys especially for this law it will take a lot for him to get off. I think I have no idea how he comes, but I'm sure that he is having fun You are the best rodgaster in jail. All right, everyone. Let's do hero of the week All right, the heroes Henry did point out that trash people trash men Have been the heroes the past couple of weeks. Like three weeks. Yeah. Yeah, but I don't I mean honestly They are heroes. They're on the front lines of I think you might have did a flight attendant last time

Oh, and I did a funny bit on the plane where I said hey, look Hey, I don't worry. I brought duct tape in case he needed any help and he did laugh So I did good well sticking with the theme A trash company they found 25 $25,000 in a discarded freezer But you know what maybe they work in trash, but they're not trash because they said this $25,000 isn't ours It's very nice because I would I I know that that's always like the morality test of like would you take it? And I was like, yeah, I fucking take it. Yes So unbeknownst to the relatives this grandmother stashed $25,000 in the freezer

Which is like hilarious that she was hoarding all of that money And then they threw away the refrigerator And then all of a sudden she's like, where the heck is all my money? And then the trash people they opened up the freezer and they didn't find the severed head They found $25,000 and they were like, oh my god We better get to this. We better get this back to the people that that that own it. Otherwise, they're gonna die It's very nice. It was really nice But they almost didn't find this they almost didn't find the money because the

The refrigerator was on its way to the landfill and then when they get to the landfill They just dump a bunch of dirt on it and then it's gone forever But then the person was like, oh no I gotta find this truck that has this refrigerator because there's $25,000 in there So this dude Gary Kappen he tracked down the driver who was yet to drop off the the goods The truck was diverted to a nearby recycling center Where its six ton cargo of garbage was disgorged on the tarmac and a crew of 10 stall work workers immediately began sifting through the mountain

To find the buried treasure. Isn't that amazing? Honestly, are you fucking better? Honestly tip them out because that's what I would say you give them a little jump Yeah, absolutely. And also just to run her up the center of the yellow flower Is actually a lifeline to the farmers. It's not even a hero. You're just talking about a fucking flower This is inferno. They can't speak No, the flower can't be a hero a flower can be a hero because right now the yellow center of the christen from sister for a woman It contains one of the world's greatest

Natural insecticides. It doesn't matter because it can't choose to give it to us We still have to kill that flower to take it and technically it's hiding it from us peretherum Is becoming a major tool in the fight against mosquito-borne illness as you fucking asshole It's not that the flower is not giving it to us. It can't be a hero. Is that conscious of the choice they save us? It doesn't know that it's saving us technically. We have to kill it and eat it Just get for it to save us. No, it's the bug that eats it and then the bug dies The bug does it again. It doesn't choose A hero chooses. I don't know

Well, you're right. That's why he gave it to the trash people, but um Nonetheless the yellow center of one of the deadliest flowers is also a lifeline to farmers Honestly, and the planet so multiple heroes and thanks honestly truly Thank you for all of those people who do good things like that and don't take the money You're right. You never know it means a lot. Um, this is I'm gonna read just a couple of very quick emails about butter Oh my god. Do we already do the butter round up? I know but there was no other emails this week Okay, except about butter. So what I'd like is like this is fucking awesome. Honestly, I love the response Um, but let's let's maybe something spooky in there. You know what I mean? Sure

So this is an it is the general question the word butter stinkers Apparently there was there there there's a tradition according to other societies that americans eat straight up butter Because butter stinkers is apparently a popular derogative for americans among the japanese What I can't confirm this is I'm not a stupid butter stinker But maybe there's some japanese listeners that can't confirm butter stinker I got it as far as slurs go about different groups. It's cute. It's kind of the cutest one I can think of Yeah, I'll take it. I guess I'm a little bit. I don't know what butter smells like I don't go to your refrigerator

I don't have any butter. This is just another one man. This is just another thing about butter I mean, it's just this is honestly. I don't even this is just one saying you should just eat salsa Instead of butter. That's not nothing to do with it. That's totally it's a non sequitur Um, there is another one that just says again about I can't eat butter like it is a cava cord Um, this is just fun. All of this is just fun. This has been a horrible episode. This is a This letter. Okay. We did have one non. Okay. You wanted the one letter that was non butter related You want to hear what it is? It can be about anything. Oh, you ready? Yes. Okay. Well, let's see if this stays in the show So this comes from a a young person. Okay

Oh my god, so I've been there was one in episode in robberpicton apparently there was a Conversation where Henry and Ben ribbed Marcus about having a pen pal that was likely an old old dude, right? So I remember the letter I received as a kid through a pen pal sign up in a girls magazine called new moon in 1997 When I was 12 years old Um, so I didn't see the the pictures that are included in this. Um, we'll have to find those. Okay. Um So this is a letter. So they sent a letter uh to this person. This is a letter that she received uh Dear Amanda

Thank you for writing to me. How are you? I am fine. I hope that we will write a lot of letters to each other I know that sometimes during school that we won't be able to Do but just a few lines to let each other us know that we're still alive Thank you for the picture of your cat and the one that you traced. I put it up on the wall of my room I spend most of my time at the local swimming pool What did you do? I went to day camp for six weeks I even saw some boys swimming naked at the camp. That was the first time I had seen a boy naked Their penises shorted look funny

Have you ever seen a boy naked? Oh my god Can I ask you a question? I got my first bra last week It's just a training bra as you can tell by my picture I didn't really need it, but I supposed to but it's it's supposed to make you itch. Oh my gosh I hope you don't mind asking. I hope you don't mind me asking being 12. I know you wear one already What size do you wear? Oh my god? How old were you when you got your first bra? The reason I'm asking this is that all my friends my age are already a 32a or bigger I think I might have to see a doctor because my boobs are not growing yet. What do you think?

That's all for now. Ride me when you have time. Your friend Emily. Yes. Here's my picture PS I think my sister is going to write to you. Do you think you could write back to her? Courtney is 10 My sister didn't see did indeed receive a letter from Courtney It was just as messy as this one as well as the random pictures of girls playing in a room It wasn't until sometime later that I received the letter from new moon telling us all deceased all communication With anyone claiming to be Emily or Courtney's shoemaker. Oh, and it was actually an adult male posing as a child No, shit. They also said that we were trying to get charges against this person Oh my god. Yeah, new moon. I still sometimes wonder whatever happened to this random dude

With the little girls in the picture that he sent I kept the letter because it makes for an interesting story and also because they plan on using it as a tool to teach My kids about strangers on the internet. Jesus. So you happy? Not butter. Not butter. Oh god, although he was trying to butter up his next victim Hopefully the person I turned it all around is either dead or in prison because uh, it's disgusting I mean, they're probably in uh, elected office at this point. Yeah, it might be jared fogle. Yeah, I'll let you be in prison Yeah, yeah, isn't that nice. Yeah, it isn't that nice. He gets out at some point. How long has he been in there for?
