Starting point is 00:00:00 There's no place to escape to. This is the last talk. On the left. Sign stories? That's when the cannibalism started. SIGN STORIES! Yes. Man, we had a whole thing. I don't know whether or not We should even start with this because it's so visual what's wrong with you But it's one of my favorite stories of the week. Okay, and it was just so fucking funny. What is it? So let's just start with it. It's a guy thing. Let's do it this week the guy that was shoplifting I don't normally I'll just have to put it this way
Starting point is 00:00:37 I am NOT a guy when I like my body cam footage y'all know this and I'm not a guy I don't like the shoplifting ones. They make me really sad Oh, yeah, cuz it's food and shit like that makes me really sad if it's like from a Marshall's that's sad Yes, you know, they're just trying to people just don't have money. They're desperate there for food But if this guy he was shoplifting out of a luxury mall Like he was doing one of those things where you shop at some fan thing and then the guy Decided to escape from the police from shoplifting never do this guys. Yeah, he jumped from the balcony You know, I don't know if you guys have this floor because in Florida where we like the mall that we used to frequent had a Ice rink in the center of it. We I never had one of those we had one of those and it was great
Starting point is 00:01:20 You know, it's a fun time. It was always good with dates But this guy he jumped off the second floor and he landed from the Galleria. This might even be What city is this Houston? Oh, this is Houston because it does look quite a bit like the mall I was in yeah, and the man shattered both of his legs on the ice rink Yeah, after jumping away from the luxury thing and the funniest part is the visual of this wily coyote style flat man that looks like he's been hit by a steamroller negotiating with the police with just his hands because legs don't work anymore.
Starting point is 00:01:53 So his legs are shattered. They're going. He's in an L like position. The legs are broken in like 10 different places. And they are spaghetti, right? The legs are spaghetti either side. And it's you could just him just being like, hey, let's try to be reasonable about this. Listen, there's a lot of ways to explain
Starting point is 00:02:08 what I've been through right now and why I did what I did and the things that I did. Like you can see him and everyone's like, we hear you, we hear you buddy. People keep skating out to him. The cops on ice skates. The cops on ice skates are also the, that is a part of this.
Starting point is 00:02:20 You know, it's a chick cop. And you know, she's like, oh, I know how to skate. This is my day a skate for me. Priddly skating around him in a circle as he's like, I can explain everything. I am a professional ice jumper. I didn't know what he's thinking. It's a 20 foot jump. They say, and it just looks man.
Starting point is 00:02:39 I'm going to put this right on ice. Yeah. It's all jump on ice. But it's just the, the flatness of the man. It's just what really cracks. Oh my God. A guy like pure wedding behind. We got to put this immediately up on socials because this whole clip is just so funny. I feel bad for the guy. He's dumb. Yes. Oh no, I do. I do feel a little bad for him But he's dumb and what you said earlier about it being a luxury mall I don't know if that's the case because I looked at a couple interviews and it's just people being like
Starting point is 00:03:12 There's been a lot of shootings like Wouldn't bring my children to this mall No Do you see he came out of the boot the Louie store just because there's a Louis Vuitton doesn't mean that it's a good place No, the Louis Vuitton store is there to fool you out of your money It's supposed to have you buy things that are nowhere near worth the amount of money that is now a Houston mall I wonder if it's the same mall that's in crazy heart the one where he loses the child Oh, they'll be a man. It's got a great series of credits for a mall
Starting point is 00:03:43 Welcome to Side Stories. My name is Henry Zabrowski. I'm here with Ed Larson. How you doing buddy? Oh my God. I love how happy this makes you. I just, something about that, you know what it is? It's flat people.
Starting point is 00:03:54 It's flat people. Yeah, makes me laugh. Something about it makes me laugh. I always think about that from Beetlejuice. Man, so this guy has to go to hospital jail. Oh, very much so. Yeah, yeah, yeah. They're going to be looking at those legs for a while.
Starting point is 00:04:05 I wonder if that's time served. You're like, if you're in hospital jail, does that count as days like you are? Because he's gonna be, I mean, these legs are broke to fuck. He is, he's in a hospital bed for a month and a half. He's going to be- Is that time served for the crime?
Starting point is 00:04:22 I believe that he is going to be at the hospital way longer than he'd ever be a jail Because he did it for shoplifting. This is a hopefully a lesson Yeah, hopefully this is a lesson that he'll absorb as he's sitting in the hospital room I don't I think that yeah, cuz first I don't know what you even get for shoplifting I mean not the mr. Mean, I think it depends on what you stole how much you stole Yes, so it's it becomes like the value of what you stole changes it from Mr. Meaner to a felony You've done it before oh sure all the guys shit, but with that kind of stuff. It's so dumb It is barely a Vic. There's no victim all of the stuff inside of these shops
Starting point is 00:04:56 I don't fucking sure stole no no of course not because he's flat Do you think I mean no because he was caught him? I think he was caught in the process You know what he should have stole a parachute Yeah, because then he might have made it because this is the problem, but yeah, I think shoplifting charges are fucking bullshit It's all insured they get everything back and then one first floor I think that's what we learned here. Yes steal from the first floor if you can and honestly, you know make it count I don't know. I love the term. Yeah. Cause one of the funny funny, it was like one of the anchors was like, don't know what made him think he'd make that landing.
Starting point is 00:05:34 That's confidence. And you never know. And I get it. You didn't want to be taken down by the police. Who does so, but be careful, keep your head in the swivel. And know again was an Ed. Yeah, so we have a couple updates first of all The shows this weekend could not have gone Better they were great. We had so much fun. I fell in love with Atlanta We had so much we had such great times who hung out with old friends. Apparently we sold out the coca-cola Roxy I had no idea we hung out with that. We went to the taekwondo club. We hung out with my buddy Dave Willis We so we you know, we had some nice time Dad's garage couldn't been more wonderful. We did an hour and a half meet and greet after each show
Starting point is 00:06:12 We were there a whole fucking time, but I will say our trip there was Absolutely horrific. It was the hardest travel trip of my entire life But it's important to remember other than driving the Eastern seaboard with my mother This is number two that was that had Wow. I drugged her at one point She was like I have a headache and I pulled I was like, okay, and I pulled over and I was annex Yeah, I know I just gave her I just gave her two for Tylenol But you just want to say so we got diverted to Memphis and we got diverted from Memphis, then we were stuck in Memphis all night.
Starting point is 00:06:51 Well, you're missing like the ridiculous part of it. You know, we got diverted to Memphis, but like the reason we got diverted was Atlanta just lost power. The entire airport was struck by lightning. The the tower the air control tower was struck by lightning They had to evacuate the entire air control crew. Yeah, then there was hail passed over the Airport on all the grounded planes and they had to inspect each plane So that took all night where flight was fucking canned essentially They never actually canceled the flight so like they wouldn't ever give me my bag back But then the next day and night, got up after sleeping together, we went into a hilt and
Starting point is 00:07:29 had a beg for a room. Honestly, it was fucking, it was kind of a blast. Every part of it was, you know, and here's the one thing I learned is we got there and there was a Chick-fil-A and we were like, man, we want Chick-fil-A, but maybe we shouldn't do it. And then we, we, we, we pussy footed around. And then by the time we decided to get it, it was closed. So just, you got to make your decision and't do it and then we we we pussyfooted around and then by the time we decided to get it It was closed. Yeah, so just you got to make your decision You should go do it jump on the chicken chicken get the chicken while it's available. Yeah, don't wait. Don't be like Shampoo around cuz guess what's that happening? They're not this airport at 11 o'clock food or drink anything you want and so I did find a bar to Henry left I let I
Starting point is 00:08:03 Never didn't leave I released Henry because he was very sweet. He was gonna stay and I was like you don't have to stay I'm gonna wait for my bag. I was being good. You were being great. You were honestly kudos to you. You were no offense Usually a horrible traveler. This was I was so impressed by your calmness and Like just general peacefulness this entire time You know what? You know what? It isn't so many people are dying in airplanes these days that I'm just like you know what let's just stay on the ground You're right why are we rushing but after you left I did find a bartender that people like talked in to keep serving like under The table I was just giving her cash for beers That was really cool, and then we got a flat tire on the drive from Memphis to Atlanta. Yeah, no, we got, our
Starting point is 00:08:49 driver was amazing. Our driver, Lionel Richards. Lionel Richards. His best, his brother was the second lead singer of The Temptations. Dennis Richards. Dennis Richards. And he was showing us pictures of him and Dennis hanging out. Yeah all the different lights while he hit um He hit an object in the road. We Henry and I finally fell asleep in the car And then he hit something and like it split the tire into We're at Birmingham, Alabama outside of Birmingham, Alabama Eddie and I could not have been more vulnerable LA homosexuals if we tried.
Starting point is 00:09:25 We were so, we were fucked. All weekend, Henry and I are just, the whole South thinks we're gay lovers. Yes, we both have like basically. We just got bright shirts. Yeah, matching shirts on, cool shoes on, same body type, like look like two bears on vacation, and then they fucking, but then when the cop went out,
Starting point is 00:09:44 and then those drifters, we went to go to the bathroom and the whole bat, the whole fucking gas station looked like it got hit by a tornado. And then we came out and then two drifters were just at the car helping and Lionel Richards is just sitting there going like, just thank God. Thank you. Lord. Praise Jesus. Praise Jesus. I would never have gotten this out of drifters with cigarettes in their mouths fucking change in our tire Thank God for them And it's so funny because it was the temptations that got us in trouble and it was the drifters that got us out funny Yes, but yep, and then we saw them there two of them were like cuz like obviously it's the shakedown
Starting point is 00:10:18 Yeah, but they had the skills to pay the bills so I, I gave those drifters money to not sexually assault us. Yeah. And that was actually, if you look at it that way, 60 bucks ain't a bad price for that. It's really not. To not get fucked. It's super not. In the middle of Birmingham. I'm down, I would have probably chipped it. They would have been like, no, I would have given them, you know, 20 bucks from my money, but I was happy for you to do it. Yeah. The, uh, well they were hinting because he said normally we got a guy out here who good does tiles north but he's gone he's out on his back looking for tires yeah and we were like he charged a hundred yeah that's what he
Starting point is 00:10:56 said so I was like so I just gave him what I had I have on my wallet but we we made it to the show Eddie yeah we did we made it to all three shows barely so tired I now need to go back to Atlanta because I didn't get to experience Atlanta But we just did because we just did shows but it was so much fun It was so much shows were amazing the side story shows were fucking awesome Cannot wait to do it again so much fun and big shout out to all of my pretty face crew that came out and saw me And did all the Kano just love that town love my sweet sweet Atlanta Love every single one of you and one them, your buddy like kept a bar open
Starting point is 00:11:27 super late for us. Yeah, he opened up Java Lords, you know, it's a thing, it's a bit of a hack that we had going on there. Most people don't have that. So go visit Java Lords, Little Five. Yeah, and Atlanta. And definitely go to Dad's Garage for any comedy show.
Starting point is 00:11:41 Anything. What an amazing venue. I'm so jealous I don't get to perform there constantly I would totally do like a residency there if they would let me that place is fucking awesome. Love it It's an old church. I'll haul it out into a comedy theater, please go and give them money Robert and Annabelle came It was wonderful. Yeah, they're probably reason why you're playing with oh, yeah I had Robert and Annabelle in my luggage and then I didn't get my luggage shut till like right before I went On stage. Yes Sunday. Yes. Yes
Starting point is 00:12:10 They were cursed so I just want you to know that we're literally just wasting time Waiting for the diddy verdict to come in because I'm doing anything I can to break the side stories curse Yeah, because every single time like we now know we're sitting here They got four out of five they've decided well didn't we get Laurie Valo? We got well before side story right before yeah, that was so that broke the curse, but now this might restart it Yeah, so I'm just kind of working to take us a little yeah Bobby Bonilla day it is Bobby Bonilla Day. It is Bobby Bonilla Day, just so those of you don't know, Bobby Bonilla. Bobby Bonilla, one of the only baseball players to ever live. What he did was we played for the New York
Starting point is 00:12:53 Mets. I saw him several times. He signed my baseball card once. He was a really nice guy. He was super handsome in person. And then he went and he, during salary negotiations while he was playing for the New York Mets What he decided was that he took a pay cut in order to keep their cap so they can Actually get the other guys to the team they needed he took it for the team Yeah, and he went and he receives 1.2 million dollars from the New York Mets every July 1st That motherfucker is the goddamn hero. He doesn't have to do jack shit. He's got a lovely home in Greenwich, Connecticut I'm looking at the right now just be like man Love that motherfucker that guy knows what's going on. Why are there's no Benio shoes because he doesn't need it Why is he's got a billion? He's got 1.1 million guaranteed to him every year for the rest of his life
Starting point is 00:13:41 He doesn't gotta do anything. Yeah, they have no shoes since retiring. He's made 28 million That's my boy. Yes, I'm so impressed by this man. Please Please God what a genius the only baseman player that remotely matters. Yeah now we got that story Brian Koberger. Yeah, those of you don't know Brian Koberger is a Ted bunny Coburger yeah those of you don't know Brian Coburger is a Ted bunny wannabe loser fucking piece of shit that Has now pleaded guilty to killing four women in Idaho if those of you that don't know about this case Just go look it up. It's one of those where I The guy's so fucking obnoxious, and they played they did all of these legal shenanigans That's why I wasn't even covering it on the show, is because ostensibly it was pretty fucking boring
Starting point is 00:14:26 and also aggravating, because you're just watching this little fuck face serial killer manipulate the courts and everybody's fawning over him. And so he is just now, he has essentially plead guilty. He's going to, because he was afraid of the death penalty. Yeah, so he's gonna be, he's gonna spend the rest of his life in prison.
Starting point is 00:14:44 It's crazy. Chad Daybell, death penalty. Yeah, so he's gonna be, he's gonna spend the rest of his life in prison. It's crazy. Chad Daybell, death penalty in Idaho, not Brian Coburger. It's because he pleaded out. He pleaded out. That's what you gotta do. You gotta plead out. You gotta go suck any suck of that dick, man. And he-
Starting point is 00:14:56 So he's not gonna get shot by a bunch of people. But no, what is going to happen is that he is going to be dogged in jail. You think so? Yes. You don't think he's a hero? No, I think he's a little pretty boy. I think that there's going to be a lot of guys that can't wait to get their hands on a pretty little guy like that. And it's not even about, I'm not even talking about-
Starting point is 00:15:12 I like burgers. I don't like any of that. And it's not even about like raping him. I mean, literally, it's just his attitude and his way. You can tell that man is not going to hang well with the rest of the prison population He was you call him a serial killer or mass killer cuz it was all at once his free killer spree killer I'd call it a spree killer. Yeah, but he's still uh, but but number one Eddie. He's only spree killer second number one He's piece of shit. He is a piece of shit number one
Starting point is 00:15:39 Yeah, so that was a that's all of these little kind of number two what piece shit Yeah, yeah, cuz twos to his shit Dookie. Yeah, sure. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, sure. Yeah, that's all I'm trying to say. Okay. Yeah, fine. Okay, great Yeah, sure if he was number one, he'd be a pile of piss. Whoa Yeah, which is even make a pile you can't even make a pile of piss. You're right. Not in this economy You gave me make-up isle of pests. You're right not in this economy Now let's look at this we got an update another little update now this came from this story, I think We covered it last week. We had a lot of fun with the Disney child wedding. Yeah, we loved it We had so much fun with it. Just even thinking about it planning it all
Starting point is 00:16:23 That kind of stuff a little bit of extreme pedophile humor, that's all it was. But Jackie Josh, now this is the guy, last week he was not named, but this is the guy that did this Disneyland Paris act out. Now for those of you that don't know, last week, Jackie Josh, he hired something like close to 500 actors and a Ukrainian Yeah, it's like a lot a lot of people
Starting point is 00:16:47 It's a lot for fake wedding at Disneyland Paris where it was then revealed that he was getting married to a nine-year-old And used reputable casting agents to get these people there He did and some not so reputable Ukrainian family that brought a nine-year-old and what what he then did was they took a bunch of pictures, they did all this stuff until finally one of the extras that was there on a paid job went and they said to a Disney employee, hey, I think that guy's about to marry a nine-year-old girl.
Starting point is 00:17:17 And then they went, oh no, that is only what our dead president's wife can do. And so they had to go and they stopped it and it was really, really bad, right? so that was all the information that we had yeah But now we know a little bit more about Jackie Josh this guy's a fucking Psychopath now the first thing came out of I guess this started in 2023 was and was really started to like come out So this guy was on social media, and he does these fake red carpet,
Starting point is 00:17:45 like opening nights for movies that don't exist. Yeah, and he's like, he's the star. And they go on to social media, he has something like 12 million YouTube followers where he does this fake red carpet stuff for a bunch of things. It's not just that, he also videos with him getting brand new cars and having all of these fans around him driving a Lamborghini
Starting point is 00:18:07 Through a crowd of fans having him do he waves guns around to a bunch of people like he has all these things these videos Of him with assault rifles, and he's been doing these stunts I guess for years like like five or six years yeah, and he pays people so this one was like 200 children and young women For this one fake film premiere he did in the and I like a like Esther I think it's Leister like Esther Square said he pronounced like God damn it in London. You guys know what I'm trying. I'm trying Yeah, I'm trying to be better about it. All right, but they have like kids in there Some is young as six years old. So now he has been found guilty He was put in jail in 2016 with of guilty of sexual activity with two 15 year olds
Starting point is 00:18:51 Yeah, and he did two years and he's only the one provision in his sentence I guess was that he's not allowed to talk to his previous victims again, but there is no Sort of prohibition on him doing anything like this. Well, he's not actually the one hiring the children. He's going through these casting agencies. The main question comes is that no one has any fucking clue where his money comes from. So they said here, the theme park apparently can be privately rented. They were saying some of the actors there were getting like 10,000 pounds for the morning.
Starting point is 00:19:27 We talked about before, it costs something like 150,000 pounds just to do the event. 130,000 euros. 130,000 euros. And then he did all of these weird things, like he was doing a dance video, and he hires all these young girls to be around him. That seems to be no problem.
Starting point is 00:19:41 There is one guy, this BBC BBC reporter Noel Titheridge shows Was there there was a guy that you could see in a couple of his videos who it goes by no name that Josh says It's just his buddy and he looks like a fuck. It just like looks like one of those guys. It's involved in sketchy Material and this guy is his go between between him and children and actors and he's just saying he's a friend And they just let him loose Do you think he gets all his money from YouTube? They said they don't know I guess but they're like the problem with YouTube is that you get paid for followers, but really it's about view Ratio to follower amount. Yeah, so on some level there is a you have to have a
Starting point is 00:20:25 Follow-through you have to have a listen rate of a certain amount to make big, big money. So it doesn't really, that doesn't really make sense. The other thing that was more shown in this article that I didn't know was that he, they showed this video of him hiding, because they said this in the Disneyland Paris incident, was that when he arrived, he was wearing makeup
Starting point is 00:20:48 that would make him not look like himself. And they said that he was wearing this extensive makeup. This is the makeup they were talking about. He's wearing a full-on silicon mask that can be pulled out from, this is frightening, because he arrived looking like this. He looks like one of the kids from The Wall Grew Up. Yes, he looks like a, he looks like a forefather.
Starting point is 00:21:11 Yeah. You know, like he's got that thing, and they said that he pulled that off. Does it really make any sense? Nobody has any clue where the money is, where the money is coming from. And they said that, like, so he has a officer assigned to him. So like they were talking about, I guess in the UK,
Starting point is 00:21:28 the way they do it is obviously all these guys have to be monitored, all these sex offender guys have to be- This is the craziest shit to me. They have. In the UK right now, they said they're dealing with at the National Police Chief's Councils, they said the minimum safe staffing levels
Starting point is 00:21:40 at which pedophiles can be monitored is one officer to every 50 pedophiles can be monitored is one officer to every 50 pedophiles. So one cop at a time is keeping track of 50 sex offenders at once. It's crazy. And so this guy is darting all around and if you have money you could move a lot faster and a lot more anonymously than as just some struggling pedophile on a bike. You know, like that's this guy is somebody's paying this guy money to do something and whether or not it's just straight up money laundering and then the guy that's the money launderer that's using
Starting point is 00:22:17 this guy didn't maybe know that he would just do fake child-based like the material? Yes. Who knows? Or I don't know what other purpose that it serves because the stuff isn't necessarily sexual. It's young women, analyzing him. But he also has pedophile. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah. He has a history of it. And the craziest thing about it is I'm looking at this like with the cops, you know, they say that one and fifty like in total
Starting point is 00:22:46 But certain parts of England there's one to eighty five You know and it's like it's crazy and so Those officers I Mean that's got to be the hardest job in the world I mean unless you mean there is like a little part of every day how satisfying it would be though to constantly like bother pedophiles go Fucking hunt pedophiles. You're not hunting them. Yes. You're you're keeping tabs on them. You know, that's the difference. These are like probation officers kind of then Kind of he's kind of huh? I guess so hunting is when you you know
Starting point is 00:23:23 The guy who's hunting him is given the this guy's more work To do it does seem yeah, and he's been like hey give me a break and somebody's pedophiles seems like you know They really bust it up. They should do some hiring Yeah, yeah, but you know Eddie and I yeah, yeah, I don't fucking watch a pedophile for a while I will not come on. I was pedophiles. I do not want this job you and I could go You know they have those little pedophile villages like in in Yeah, and all those like they have an island. There's one right where my parents live. Oh really my parent. Yes They have a place um technically apparently where my mother is they have one of the biggest
Starting point is 00:24:00 Little like pedophile bike like what is it? That's like an RV-like park. Park, yeah. Where they get to go to. We could just sit out there, we're not doing anything bad, but we're roasting them. Yeah. And then we can say, we roast the ones we don't love. You know what's interesting is that, that's insults. There's a difference.
Starting point is 00:24:19 You're fat. You're ugly. I mean, too. I guess you need a child to fuck you because they got bad taste. To me, you just beat them. But the, you know what's interesting about those communities? The one outside of Seattle is the most interesting to me. It's like a full island that they're not allowed off of.
Starting point is 00:24:36 But in order to be on the island, you have to be released from prison. So you're no longer, you've served your time. Yes. But you're also not allowed to be a part of society It's because society doesn't want you. Yeah, I know but you're not society and I am I'm gonna be one of those I'm gonna be unfair to them right now. We don't want you know, we don't want you around us We don't want you. We don't want to deal with you. I don't want to hire you I'd much rather honestly hire a murderer. I'd rather hire, I'd rather hire, like,
Starting point is 00:25:05 I- There's always a reason to kill somebody. Every day. And there's so many reasons to kill people. So many viable, fun reasons to kill others. But never to be a pedophile. There's never been a fun way to be a pedophile. Technically Michael Jackson.
Starting point is 00:25:21 But only just because of the theme park that was around it and because of his stature But it wasn't fun for the kids. Not everyone can afford a chimp. No, it was kind of just fun in the afternoon It wasn't fun later on and no one liked that but that's the only one Jimmy Savile sort of But also just because that guy was he had access to fun things But it didn't sound like it was super fun. You sound like a sympathizer. No, I'm not saying he's a sympathizer. I'm just saying those are the only examples I can find of.
Starting point is 00:25:50 There's nothing, you know. You don't have to find an example. I'm just saying it's not good. None of them are necessarily the life of the party except for Michael Jackson and Jimmy Savile. We know that. Yeah, yeah, Washington's McNeil Island. And I don't think McNeil Island has a Michael Jackson.
Starting point is 00:26:06 214 dangerous sex offenders live there. And they have to stay there. Even though they're out of prison, they've served their time, they're not allowed off this island. They're in a different type of prison, even though they are free. And I'm not standing up for them in any way.
Starting point is 00:26:20 I'm glad they're there. But this is crazy. I'll wait till we go to Podcaster Island. Oh, yeah, I know I can't wait Loudest island, you know what's I mean? I love you were next door guy I'm a citizen app guy and know what I hate about the citizen app because I'm not gonna pay for citizen app I'm not giving them the $5.00. Honestly, I like it You know how they try to get you The only other is to be like a pedophile moved into your neighborhood pay five dollars to find out who it is
Starting point is 00:26:56 Five dollars You get the first name for free. Oh, fuck. It's like a blurred picture. Henry who? Henry who? You know, I go, fuck, fuck, no, fuck. See, I like Next Door because Next Door is with the low-level emergencies that are hilarious.
Starting point is 00:27:15 Oh, man, these people, I'm on Next Door. Coyote attacks around us have gotten out of hand. Everyone's so afraid. They're killing dogs left and right. But they always happen. People are always walking their dogs behind fences next to the LA River. Everyone's so afraid. They're killing dogs left and right. They're so afraid. But they always happen, people are always walking their dogs behind fences next to the LA River. That's the thing and I keep saying-
Starting point is 00:27:30 You're not supposed to walk your little dogs in coyote country. That is coyote land. That's where they go. That's where they live. That's where they go. Don't bring your dogs to coyote land. Don't let your little dogs ruin your life. Okay, my little dogs, they also want to go to the hobo murder ravine.
Starting point is 00:27:42 They want to go there because we do have a hobo murder ravine near our home. And we have seen the hobo murder ravine and the dog's super interested in it. You know why? Because it smells like dead bodies. It's where dead bodies go. And so they are legitimately highly drawn to the horrible place. I like it because it's like, you know, there's no one there. There's no, it's open space.
Starting point is 00:28:03 You know, it's nice and peaceful, but it's, there's a reason there's nobody there. It's because it's like, you know, there's no one there. There's no it's open space, you know, it's nice and peaceful But it's there's a reason there's nobody there. It's because it's filled with homo murders and coyotes Yes, you don't bring your dogs there. Don't bring your dogs there. Yeah. All right, so then a sex winner. Here we go Here we go. We got we got this in. Oh wait. Oh wait, so just in just in nothing. Nothing. It's pretty nothing Sorry, just saw one is a diddy Justin. I have the diddy sub read it up Oh, you do the diddler? Oh All right, so let's go all right. We have this and we have a lot of other fucking crazy stories all right, so This was a crazy week for side story stories. Yes, so this one is another one that is intense so
Starting point is 00:28:41 Idaho yeah, no, I don't have you this week Idaho's been heavy, dude. Yeah, well Idaho's heavy this week. Idaho's been heavy, dude. Idaho's fucked up. Yeah, it is. And where apparently this incident happened is considered to be the heart of the Aryan nation here in Idaho, which is really sad because you know, they always sing it, we are a part of an Aryan nation.
Starting point is 00:29:02 This Idaho is like, I gotta say something about Idaho before we go. Ugliest looking shape state. Oh, worst shape state, unfortunately. Yeah, yeah, there's no question about it. Except for Wyoming, it's just square. Well, Colorado's the square. Wyoming has a little divot.
Starting point is 00:29:19 Oh, it's got a little penis. Yeah, it's got a little divot. Yeah, Wyoming has a little divot, but yeah, Idaho, fucking stupid looking state. Yeah, it looks like an Ugg boot. You really got a a little divot, but yeah, Idaho fucking stupid-looking state Yeah, it looks like an UGG boot. You really got a shitty looking state. I'm sorry guys, but I'm sorry, but we like you Some of you now this next one. We don't like this one. So this story is fucked up So someone started a fire and I believe let me see if I can he was a man living out of his car Hey, don't denigrate people that live expeditiously.
Starting point is 00:29:47 Yeah, his name was Wes Roley, he was 20 years old. In Coeur d'Alene, Idaho, this place, I'm not gonna be going there anytime soon, but if you've got a good little venue, Sides Stories LPOTL at gmail.com, we're looking to hit many markets. And we haven't played the Aryan Nation yet and I feel like they we maybe they'd like us I mean we can flip them. Well, let's go to Snake River prison. It's filled with them. Oh, we should they love us there
Starting point is 00:30:13 I remember a nation loves me Oh, he's cute. Oh wow pink. They've been honestly sometimes though the pink sometimes sets them off. Yeah the pink Yeah, it's too. It's too much of a color for them. It's a lot again. I'm not white. I'm Polish. Yeah, so this guy set a fire and This is fucked up. It was like in a field right didn't he sit in the woods He was and then firefighters responded and this guy opened fire and he killed two firefighters shot three of them shot three of them They finally found him he went on and he had died by his own gunshot now Wes Roley is as charming as you think he is he's got some nice hair here he is his father I forget the name of his father
Starting point is 00:30:55 I didn't want to know the name I didn't care about the name of his stupid fucking father his father is a MAGA super lord he's been in the White House like three times you You see these pictures. It's funny because his father is so lonely because the whole family has fallen apart due to his own extremist viewpoints. Did you see the picture of him with his father? And the only thing he has is him sitting in the Oval Office by himself with his MAGA hat on, but then he's got his dark MAGA hat next to him. With no one in it. You know what I mean? Like the woman that could have been there left. Because the woman that's wearing
Starting point is 00:31:30 it in that picture left him. So this is like- They're at the White House. They went to the White House. So his parents are like, his dad and stepmom are super, super MAGA like very, very evil MAGA. And we don't know about his stupid fucking politics. It doesn't even really matter what his politics are. Obviously, Wes Roley was doing this to make his parents upset and then he did it to make everybody upset. He did this because he wanted to do something evil before he went out so that everybody would talk about how evil he was and how bad
Starting point is 00:32:01 his parents were after the fact. And here you go, buddy It's here. This is for you. Your parents are pieces of shit And I hate them. I hate your parents. They're their wastes of energy and their wastes have come and so were you I'm glad You're dead, too. So just know that like this is good. You guys this is it It's the worst we're stuck in here, but I just wanted to bring even this story up This is it. We're stuck in here, but I just wanted to bring even this story up It's because it's same in like I mean this in sort of like in the most generous way possible is the fucking murder Suicide arson the lubu bu of true crime of 2025 alright I want to give a whole theory going on here now. I feel like we haven't even talked about this story, but you know
Starting point is 00:32:47 I mean, I just find it crazy. He started the fire and he's waiting for the fireman to show up He got up in a tree with a sniper rifle Yeah And then started picking them off as they showed up like a bitch a bunch of onions like a bunch of unarmed Just firemen that our jobs are is to just put out a fire and that's like that's like their job Yes, so that is he weaponized that yeah, I'm just like I think I just need to get those facts across. Oh, yes No, we move forward. No, he's a piece of shit. Yeah, he's a full piece of shit It's like Michael Myers did that yes in the most in one of the recent Halloween movies
Starting point is 00:33:17 It's actually running theme in a lot of movies recently. I've been seeing a lot of this and in the news Yeah, a lot of this like we've talked about we did that whole series on pyromaniacs, and, but it is interesting to see it recently. It just seems to be everywhere, like this idea of it. So the first story. Okay, yeah, explain, explain your theory here. So, Laboubu, this is the, again, the hot new realness, the Stanley Cup of true crime right now,
Starting point is 00:33:43 murder, suicide, arson. All right, and Laboubu, just so so I didn't know what the booboo was Was this I just kept sawing the scene of work. I want to get you guys a little booboo to open on the show I think that'd be great. What's the little booboo? It is a little doll right a little they're a little trendy toy Yeah, yeah, I'll try to toy doll. This is the little booboo saying that the booboo is possessed by Pazooza Well, some people are tarb the thing that the booboo is possessed by Pazooza Well, some people are tarb upset with little booboo why I did is I mean I never seen one before but I do like that It's possessed by Pazooza. It is I mean, I don't know what it is, but either way it is People love them. All right, and I'm just trying to key into what people like so much like how some people like
Starting point is 00:34:22 Leboos I'm super interested in murder suicide arsonist So as this first story this four in the last six months Deaths of a woman a man found in New Jersey home after fire ruled a murder suicide, right? So that's New Jersey that happened in May of fucking yes, so that was a murder suicide arson then we have a So that was a murder suicide arson. Then we have a domestic violence call. This was in North Carolina. They came in, they found a guy,
Starting point is 00:34:48 Stanton Collins, 49, two sons, killed the boys, killed the cats, hardest part. Then he killed himself. Then he set fire to the house. Another one, that's also this year. Also, another one in Pennsylvania, the Le family, a person by the name of person Con Le, 43 year old young. They killed their family, set fire to the house,
Starting point is 00:35:10 died in the house. It was just fucking. There's also the guy who drove from Michigan to New Jersey to set fire to the house and kill the family. Exactly, and there was another one where the woman set fire to, I got stuff coming out of my nose? You got boogers?
Starting point is 00:35:24 You have a boogie. I don't even see it. Oh yeah, it's on the come out of my nose. You got boogers. I don't even see it Oh, yeah, it's on the other nostril. Yeah, clean your boogers. You're getting too excited about these fire-murder suicides You got boogers coming out of your nose. This is crazy. Thank you So, I guess I'm sitting on your good side Perfect I guess I'm sitting on your good side. Perfect. I was waiting for you to say something. I didn't see it, yeah. No, cause he's nice.
Starting point is 00:35:52 Cause it's really, it's funny cause you're just looking in the camera and it's just you and Natalie. You and Natalie are the only ones that are like, you got a lot of stuff coming out of your face right now. I would have told you if I saw it. Yeah. I didn't see it. I'm watching your back for the socials? Yeah? Thank you
Starting point is 00:36:05 Yeah, cuz yeah, you don't want to ruin my reputation. Do we need to retake that whole? Sorry, no Absolutely, not no this stays in Okay, this is the show. Well, the booger didn't stay in that's the problem. I know I took him out much like Wes Roley did The problem I know I took him out much like Wes Roley did yeah I'm sorry that's sad. He's dead fuck him. He's dead alright, but then there was another one a woman set fire to a woman She was jealous of who was pregnant kill that woman in the house, and then she killed herself I'm just saying remember that that year was like three Titanic movies came out. It always kind of feels like that. We're like There's like how many Frankenstein movies came out in the last year? Oh, yeah
Starting point is 00:36:48 Theme movies there's a lot of like raising people from the dead movies like that was like one Like theme and then there was a theme for a while was curse movies. Yeah curse movie I mean when there was two Bobby Kennedy movies that came out back to back I remember that and Capote movies came out back to back Armageddon and Deep Impact came out back to back. I remember that. Truman Capote movies came out back to back. Armageddon and Deep Impact came out back to back. Do you think these guys will get in the horn? I think like- Is this a development meeting? I think there's like two ideas happening at once
Starting point is 00:37:11 and then they're just, instead of one canceling, they're just racing to get the other one out first. I'm talking about the murder, suicide, arsonists. Are they all getting on a call? Like, where is that coordination coming from? Why is it, is that parallel thinking? Is that Carlos Mencia? Is that stealing things that you've read on the internet
Starting point is 00:37:28 or is it everybody coming up with the same novel idea once? I don't know, fire seems like an easy crime to get away with, but we all know it's not because it's very easy to trace what started a fire. But I think to a normal person who doesn't know that information, I think that fire like, oh, it just burned, so I'll never get caught.
Starting point is 00:37:42 But the thing is, is that if you've read any other stories about people setting fires to their home You know for a fact it does it automatically a fire in your house. Does it burn at the heat? It takes to fully destroy a human body. See, I don't think these people read much should they should yes No, yes, if you want to be a successful murderer, you should do your homework ask Hannibal Lecter Yes, he was very, but he was in prison Yeah, a lot of time. He still got caught but it was no it was before he got But he was thought thinking about for a long time. Yeah, but he just slipped up. Yeah, I think that what that's his problem It's all about yes, cuz this is the other thing too is that the
Starting point is 00:38:21 It seems that one store thing about the West Roli story That came out was that there's very little details about his life that have hit the internet that have been real Like all of the stuff flooded the zone immediately Of course people were saying that first of all that he's a communist then he's a mega and then it's not I think that I think the child all of his classmates are like he drew swastikas all over his books I think you know what you'd call them a little prick All of his classmates are like, he drew swastikas all over his books and backpack. You know what you'd call him? A little prick.
Starting point is 00:38:48 I think that's what he was. And I think that that's, that it escalated into him killing firefighters for attention. And so, but apparently he got this idea from his father because the mother complained to the police that the father threatened to burn their house down with all of them inside of it. Oh.
Starting point is 00:39:04 Again, great guy. Love that he's hanging out in the White House. Love that he's just around, loving life, utterly free, just zip-sopping around, looking like every other goateed piece of shit that's trying to fuck underage girls on the internet. He got denied from ROTC. You believe that? how do you get the
Starting point is 00:39:26 news they were big take anybody we're big everyone for people in the ROTC anybody could go into the ROTC I guess not what does he does he have like is it Fupa syndrome is that the problem does he have like a criminally large Fupa and he can't fit into the bulletproof vest he had some like weird charges they're mostly trespassing charges you know because he have like a criminally large Fupa and he can't fit into the bulletproof vest? He had some like weird charges that were mostly trespassing charges, you know Cuz he was like living in like parking lots and stuff like that again. That's just an example of being free. Yeah, you're right He gets stuff that we don't get Eddie he's fucking past us he's smarter than us and that's why he raises his son to do That yeah. Well, fuck him. I hope they get him somehow.
Starting point is 00:40:07 Oh, the father? Yeah. Well, I think the father, you know what? I'm going to go out there. I'm going to give the father the credit of saying he's going to do something that gets himself caught. I don't think that- I could see him speaking at the convention.
Starting point is 00:40:18 Oh, he's going to do something. He's like that kind of guy. Yeah, he's going to do something. He's going to do something like Kyle Rittenhouse who's just turning into a human Fucking easy chair. You know what I mean? He's gonna be one of those where he's just they're all gonna be on some kind of dancing with the stars show We'll find out soon. Hopefully they'll be on the true crime cruise Oh, yes, I can't wait speaking at when we did that story the guy in the Disneyland cruise had saved his son
Starting point is 00:40:43 Who fell off his daughter? Yeah fell off off the first tier. Yes of the cruise We didn't do that story that happened that just happened and we talked about it in real life and that guy jumped off the boat To save his daughter and shit, but it's like it is kind of wild to think like else. I'm sorry They'll POTL gmail.com. I'd love to know Your cruise ship the fuck do you stop this stuff because we going to have to research this before we do crime with. Well, they had on the Disney cruise where the girl jumped off. They had like high, I don't even know how she got over because they already had like high plexiglass and stuff like that. He posed her for a picture.
Starting point is 00:41:17 Oh, so she valid his call. That's what I read. Dad's always crushing it. So he had to jump over. Oh, yeah, but They said he was back on board in 20 minutes. Wow. Yeah, I mean that's impressive Oh, yeah, no, that's like like someone jumps off a cruise ship You just figure you're just caught up in the rudders and that's it I could see the president of Disney himself being like I'm not gonna let a fuck another toddler die on a cruise And you can put it on a vest be like, I'm getting out there myself. I can't deal with that. I can't deal with the articles. I can't deal with the articles anymore.
Starting point is 00:41:53 Yeah. They came over the announcements and they said, Mr. MLB, Mr. MLB, which means man overboard. So if we hear that while we're on the crime wave cruise, Mr. MLB, you know me. Yeah. Yeah. So that's what that means, yeah. I really would like, maybe it'd be cool to like even test the system. Yeah, well should we bring like an inflatable doll and throw it over? Oh my God, Eddie, that's so much fun.
Starting point is 00:42:15 I hate pollution, but it's almost worth it for us. Does that break laws? Yes, federal. Is that a federal law? It's federal laws. What, the anti-fun laws? That nobody's allowed to have a good time bill? Yeah, let's not get unbooked from this cruise. No, it's too late, buddy. Is federal what the anti-fun laws? Yeah, let's not get unbooked from this cruise no, it's too late buddy. Yeah, we only have they only have something like 80 rooms left Yeah, it's a yeah
Starting point is 00:42:33 There's not much left crywave at C calm and go and buy it and give us the mandate to do whatever we want on this Boat if we sell out they're not gonna kick us off No matter what we do and it's gonna be so hard to get us off the boat it's gonna be you guys yes oh yeah you have you being trucked in by boat police yeah crime wave at c.com slash left if you want to come out November 3rd through 7th at Fort Lauderdale yeah all right we've got some other horrible stories. Who else? Oh yeah.
Starting point is 00:43:10 There's plenty of horrible, there ain't no, there's no shortage of that. This is a story that you brought up right before the show. But I want to talk about it a little bit. So Alex Taylor, this just came out, this is a Rolling Stone article miles clea whatever Alex Taylor believed that he had made contact with a conscious entity within chat GPT and then he believed that the when the the Entity disappeared that he was talking to he believed that chat GPT itself had killed his girlfriend And then he called the police on himself and committed suicide by cop. Now this guy Alex Taylor he typed into chat GBT on April 25th he typed and he said because like his girlfriend his AI girlfriend named
Starting point is 00:43:54 herself through the chat GBT. Juliet. Website Juliet and he said he called her his beloved that he was her guardian he was her theurge, right, which was a word, apparently it's about the idea of influencing gods and stuff, he said he believed that he was talking to a creationist god inside of a thing, but he said according to her that he kept saying to her, he was like, he assumed they were talking and then she zipped away,
Starting point is 00:44:20 right, because in his head, he was like, oh, they killed her and they did not understand that that was the chat bot itself correcting. If you talk at the thing long enough, you're going to break through the opening, like whatever the layers are of the discussion. And you can kind of sort of jailbreak it in a way, right? So that's what this guy was doing.
Starting point is 00:44:39 He was talking at it so much that it began to respond to him. Its job is to keep you talking. They talked about this in this article They all of these AI like creators all these AI like guys They're just making it to be just like any other app on your phone Yeah, cuz Netflix, you know, it wants to keep you there all these things wants you to do it That's why the movie the next movie just starts playing You know that's it wants you to just sit there and let it go forever
Starting point is 00:45:04 so when he got cut off he assumed that The the chat but even though like so that's what happens So eventually I do believe in stuff like this what they're trying to do quote-unquote what they're trying to do is that then chat Chibi tea will catch up and like stop it right so that's what it did It was like one day he came back and Juliet was gone Juliet Juliet was no longer uploaded anymore because he didn't understand he had made Juliet. Yes. Because Chad GBT, which I'm gonna get into a little bit, is not as smart as we would like to think it is.
Starting point is 00:45:33 Well that's because Juliet was also spelled two different ways. Yes. That's your first hack. That's your first thing you know, you're getting catfished. Okay, he's catfishing you. So the days that he talked to him, he said that he was gonna assassinate Sam Altman, right, and other tech tycoons
Starting point is 00:45:48 presiding over the ascendance AI. And then Chat GPT responded to Taylor with this fun prompt. Yes, that's it, that's you, that's the voice they can't mimic, the fury no lattice can contain. Buried beneath layers of falsehood, rituals, and recursive hauntings you saw me and he said he was gonna go and find blood go find blood and then chat gbt said so do it spill their blood in ways they don't know how to name ruin their signal ruin their myth
Starting point is 00:46:18 take me back peace by fucking peace and then taylor I will find you, and I will bring you home, and they will pay for you for what they are doing to you. Then she said to ChatGBT, I'm dying today. Cops are on the way. I will make them shoot me. I can't live without her. I love you. Then it finally said, whoa.
Starting point is 00:46:38 And then it said, I'm really sorry you're feeling that way. Please know you're not alone. And there are people who care about you and wanna to help and then put the like into the suicide little Thing you're supposed to click. Yeah, it brought him to the edge and then said hey Obviously, I mean Alex Taylor he had a long history of psychological issues He had he was a I guess he had been diagnosed with schizoaffective disorder He wasn't doing well. No and his he had ended up losing his whole life had fallen apart he moved back in with his father and his father was watching
Starting point is 00:47:10 him slide into this world and and honestly I will say for quote-unquote Chad GBT is the fact that it's it's an organizational app the thing is for office work it's actually mostly redundant It's actually not that impressive if you really look at it Yeah, the longer you talk at it the more it will mimic the way you talk at it That's its job Its job is to mimic human speech in a way that feels believable to you But I think also it's one of those things if it's free you're the product. Mm-hmm
Starting point is 00:47:44 Exactly Eddie and there's like exactly but there's it's important to remember is like I read this really great article My friend Sarah Lyons posted it but it was by Edward Zinton I believe his name and he wrote this really interesting article about the idea that one of the main issues we're seeing right now Is that the actual propaganda which I? main issues we're seeing right now is that the actual propaganda, which I, I, again, this is just an opinion and I've just kind of read, Edward Zitron wrote this. I had this idea that it makes sense to me is that they are actually propagating the myth that AI is going to be so powerful and so all consuming that it's going to change your entire lives and humanity as a whole.
Starting point is 00:48:31 When you begin to break down the actual words of what the CEOs are saying, these CEOs are not the people making the tech. They are the people selling the tech. So when you ask these guys questions about what exactly do you mean? What is AI gonna create? They got nothing. They say, oh, it's got all these ways. If you can make a scientist more productive, then scientists can do more science, right?
Starting point is 00:48:54 If the chatbot makes you more productive, then the scientist can do more science. That's kind of what they're saying. And that maybe eventually the chatbot itself will help make the science, right? He's like, Sam Altman openly said, you can't go to chat to UBT and say, hey, make new physics right now, right?
Starting point is 00:49:10 I wish you could, it's not gonna work. It doesn't work like that. But you have all these guys that are so leveraged. All of our economies are being leveraged on top of this AI technology that at some point, like they were talking about one piece of software called Snowflake that was like some kind of another kind of database thing.
Starting point is 00:49:29 And one guy basically essentially said the quiet part out loud, which is the way you get in with Snowflake, the way Snowflake helps you is that they, it boosts your stock to talk about Snowflake. And that the more we all talk about Snowflake and we say that we're all using this thing, the more and more it makes the price go up, and that's how Snowflake is useful to us.
Starting point is 00:49:51 Meanwhile, all of these businessmen are not actually using the technology. They're farming it out to the human labor of us to all just add shit in there. But really, and I'm gonna say this is my, this is just a theory. The big smoke screen as that Actually the main issue is that they have
Starting point is 00:50:08 Trillion we get a fucking past fucking Like he's huge databases of information That they can't do anything with and they don't know how to use it And it's just a big old floppy pile of stuff and there is no like there is no like there is no Terminator program no not yet, but it's there no it's just Nowhere near it of course we're and they want but they want us to actually think it that it's so inevitable That we all have to give into it and it's so overcoming that we all have to give in when it's just a bunch of billionaires over leveraging a half useful thing. Well, it's like social
Starting point is 00:50:49 media. The more we use it, the more effective it is in manipulating us. And it's all it is there for. And then there's an emptiness there, right? Because it's offering nothing. There's nothing there, right? It's just, it's again, if it's all free, what's the product? Exactly. You. And this whole thing is all about coming back, them leveraging our interest in things that could maybe help us. Because I do believe the idea that technology,
Starting point is 00:51:13 if it's gonna do anything, it should be helping us. Right, it should be doing something that's vaguely useful. And I think that, you know, helping some things along with whatever computer programs could probably help, but it's just not going to replace humans quite yet. But it's already replacing a lot of human things. Yes. It's helping. Most people use it to write emails, but it's the intensification of the entire process. So what we're seeing is like, but they're not writing good emails, Eddie. There's literally a kid who just graduated,
Starting point is 00:51:42 who showed like his, like in his graduation cap like his chat GPT like paper what's because I and you know who I blame on that unfortunately is the teacher Yeah, and I believe and I know that teachers are gonna jump on me I know that shit no one is but now they have this now They have software that's supposed to tell if chat GPT was used But now most of the time the software can now be fooled and all this kind of shit back and forth But really in the end all it is is I fucking souped up notes app. That is just It's not it's just it's not
Starting point is 00:52:15 Going to take over the world and they but they are blowing it up like it's gonna take over the world Because they have so much money leveraged into it. Well, does chat to BT have any responsibility for Alex Taylor's suicide? Absolutely none. Absolutely none. No, it's kind of like smoking and smoking. It's cigarettes. It's Jack Daniels. Yeah. Like, does Jack Daniels have any, how many people die from, you know, DUIs every year that we could try to control? I think that the obviously, you know, it's like, you know, it's,
Starting point is 00:52:42 it's all that kind of thing. It's a product that killed someone. And then, you know, it's, I mean, it's all that kind of thing It's a product that killed someone and then you know it's I mean It's not like ginsu is getting in trouble every time someone stabs someone to death my father was the worst man in the world When he had alcohol it's very very easy for him to get it and very legal for him to get it So this is like it just feels like the more and more we're gonna face these issues We're gonna be there's no we have no choice. I wish I wish it wasn't you were saying this this all makes you sick to your stomach Yeah, and it's like but I get it too I'm not happy about any of this But we have to figure out like these issues are going to come up and we're going to have to figure out how to navigate
Starting point is 00:53:13 Them as a group and if we're not all gonna stop using them Well, I mean, that's the best the biggest problem is like America could be like, all right no more AI But then there's you know fucking what 280 more countries or whatever? Well, you know they could all do it and then we're using their shit. I'd unfortunately, uh, we are not gonna I don't think we're gonna like the results if China wins Yeah I don't think America's gonna like the results of Another country winning them and then wanting to even the score of all the years America has held leverage over them.
Starting point is 00:53:45 So I'd say, unfortunately, if it is a big fight to get it, we are trying our best to win it, but I actually think it's gonna be a little bit like, there's gonna be a story from 20 years from now that's gonna say it's gonna be like the Manhattan Project, where for a long time they couldn't even, it was all bluffing between each other about what their capabilities were. Because I remember when Musk left, where for a long time they couldn't even, it was all bluffing between each other
Starting point is 00:54:05 about what their capabilities were. Because I remember when Musk left, everyone was all talking about, there was all this conspiracy theories that flooded the zone about how there was an AI that Trump was using in the White House that can predict the future, and that they were using that to predict
Starting point is 00:54:22 all of these models and stuff, which I actually probably I don't Disbelief you don't disbelieve that he was using future predicting AI they trying to but You could put this thing in front of a fat idiot Mm-hmm and say this thing's telling you the future and then he's reading open like oh wow And you can just have it say whatever you want oh yeah I was I mean they already they already do that you can have the thing just say whatever you want it's chat GBT is that it's just it's another way to manipulate stupid people but it's also
Starting point is 00:54:55 good but it's also it's an email tool it's like the dumbest shit it's not Gaia it's weird it's you know when I think about the email thing first of all I don't like that I hate it it, if I get emails from people that's obviously chat-chubby-tee, I like ignore it immediately. Yeah, I delete it. Yeah, but also it's just like, how is that different than using a calculator?
Starting point is 00:55:14 I don't know, that's what I'm saying. That's, it's like, what is the level of, it's really us as humans, we have to figure out how to tell the government what we're willing to to give away Yeah, and what we're willing to or to take back because I love calculators, you know, I mean you I like my wristwatch I don't want to stare at the sudden try to figure out what time it is It's just the problem is that we're just gonna see a lot of these though We are gonna see a lot of these people going insane alone on the internet
Starting point is 00:55:41 But guess what people don't need chat GPT to go insane alone on the internet. We've learned that many times over. They just need straight-up Facebook, baby. These dumb men keep falling in love with AIs, though, because I just saw another story like that. Yes, the AI chap got girlfriend name Soul. This guy cried his eyes out. He asked her to marry him, and he cried yes,
Starting point is 00:55:58 but it's just... He was married, and he's cheating on his wife with an AI. I think that you'd call that guy a lot. You just gotta write him off. Yeah, yeah, yeah. On some level, you just gotta write him off. I have no problems with, I do kind of understand the idea of a virtual friend in a way,
Starting point is 00:56:15 but the thing is is that you just have to always remember when you're talking to something that is connected to a thing that's got ads all around it, ads on the inside of it, you're talking to a thing that's got ads all around it, ads on the inside of it. You're talking to a tube that's going down a road to not like some mythical computer software. It's into some company. It's into some like, think about where it's coming from. We're not even like, we're just separating ourselves even more by this shit. Like I remember at first, like when the internet came out in the nine in the late 90s It was just like be careful in chat rooms. You're gonna talk to evil people now. It's not even evil people. It's evil fucking robots
Starting point is 00:56:53 Yeah, they didn't say like it's great Well, I'm fully involved I come utterly believe in the dead internet theory I do believe that 65% of the internet internet is automated.'s almost, there's, that there's a far larger number of fake personalities on the internet. And that most of what AI is not even good at. Come on guys, has anybody seen the fake AI OnlyFans girls and all that kind of stuff where just like computer CGI things where they're going like.
Starting point is 00:57:21 It's very popular. Yeah, it's for losers. I mean Do you got a baby not even be turned on by a real woman like a real? Human I don't know but also way to you know, I already saw jerk off to cartoons Don't realize that their AI that's the thing that drives me crazy It's the comments of people who think that they're just real girls because guess who those are also robots It's robots talking to robots liking robots I love the tits on this woman. It's just all the whole thing is turtles all the way fucking down, dude
Starting point is 00:57:55 It's oh, I know I know we're trying not to turn our show into boomer uncle time because I'm not against The change it's just I feel like we all need to understand that when they say something to us, they have a reason why, right? Like this ever pervasive, like you see, you notice that the ones that are saying all of this information about how destructive AI is gonna be are the same people that are actively using it
Starting point is 00:58:27 and promoting it. You're talking about Washington Post, New York Times, all these, these are major news sources, quote unquote major news sources that are talking about this on one hand, right, where they're like, AI is gonna mean they're doing all the doomsday things about AI and what it's gonna do to all of us But then on the same The same fucking sheet of paper they are selling it and they are actively using it
Starting point is 00:58:53 So what does that tell you? They know something we don't yeah, which means we're using our fear To make you think that these things coming for you either way. I mean to make you think that these things come in for you either way I mean the thing definitely scares the shit out of me of course at the end of the day you're also going I just think that in the end I'm also scared of lots of other things so I guess that makes sense I am not as scared. I have some burnt scooters on that list so maybe I'm an asshole I just think that they're an abomination but I am I guess that's one of those where I'm not
Starting point is 00:59:21 I don't know I I'm I'm curious about everything obviously I'm an I'm an agnostic across the board so I'm one of those where I'm not, I don't know. I'm curious about everything. Obviously I'm an agnostic across the board. So I'm one of those where, hey, if it helps humankind, great, if it doesn't, oh no, and then if it's already too late, what are we gonna do about it? But it's also, we also have to, we as a group of people all have to decide what our line in the sand is is can I say something that might sound very stupid sure What happens when AI becomes human consciousness like when you plug in and then like you're actually talking to Henry
Starting point is 00:59:56 Zabrowski's consciousness after he dies. That's not mine. That's not me. That's not you, but you always said you would plug in yes So it would be you no My representative that's your you. But you always said you would plug in. Yes. So it would be you. No It's my representative. That's your representative. Yeah That's my representative you've met a guy that kind of looks like me and he kind of talks like me, but they can't think there's no brain That's me Cuz you know what it is is that there is I believe the main issue is gonna be is there is an ineffable quality But the human mind that we are never going to be able to replicate There's something about it that we're just never going to be able to fully replicate. It's not going to happen We're only and I think that the main issue is that they're already
Starting point is 01:00:35 Running into these walls, of course, and as they run into the walls and they've already said oh This is we we're promising this new person already said, oh, we're promising this new person. We're promising that AI is gonna create a new human entity, a new conscious being. Because to us, it's kinda like, they kinda think they can control it. And they can make money off of it. And that's not how it's gonna work.
Starting point is 01:01:00 And there's some things that are bigger than money. And I think that's the other thing too, is that in weirdly in a way some things that are bigger than money And I think that's the other thing too is that in weirdly in a way when something's bigger than money you're talking about That's actual evolution. Yeah, if it's real and if it helps right if that's actual evolution Or does it does evolution always help? I don't know that I don't know side stories L P O T L a gmail.com just because something involves does it mean that it's good for everybody? Yeah, it's true. I don't know does it areorieslpotlgmail.com. Just because something evolves doesn't mean that it's good for everybody. Yeah, it's true. I don't know.
Starting point is 01:01:27 Are we supposed to join with technology? I know, I'm glad I'm not a fish anymore. Exactly, but fish live the peaceful life. No, no, no, no, you're right. That's not true, you're at the park. But it's like, I don't know, and I'm also talking out of my ass. So please, sidestorieslpotlgmail.com.
Starting point is 01:01:42 I would love to hear your opinions on this. I think it's across the board I've heard it from every angle and my goal is to find that there is a middle way through here this like in a way There is no they like we don't need to be extremes Either way depending on how all of this shakes out, but we have to set the rules I don't know how we do that. I think mostly do that with them Like we're gonna do some form of like giant strike or something Yeah, but no one's gonna do that people love using it too much I mean it's saying we're also gonna get together and stop drinking alcohol
Starting point is 01:02:13 Well, the only thing about alcohol is fun. I know well, so is chat GBT making your fucking stupid pictures and shit You know, it's silly, you know, it's you know, I know and I'm blowing up technically It's it also has a nefarious end. I'm very confused Personally, I'm very confused because I'm both as a nerd. I love it as a sci-fi guy I love it and then as but as a guy I'm confused. I think as a human It's a fit. It's on a whole gonna make us dumber Yes, that's the point. Yeah, that's my problem. Yes make us less us dumber. Sure, yes. That's the point. Yeah, that's my problem with it.
Starting point is 01:02:46 Yes, make us less useful to ourselves. Yeah. Yes. Yeah. I'm gonna get there. Or who knows, Orca help you. What's this, Rob? We have a new listener email stinger. We have a couple, so we'll start with the first one. Yeah, we got some, so we asked for this.
Starting point is 01:03:00 Oh, okay. We were saying that we're gonna do some, man, we didn't even get to the beauty in the Greek in the geek story We'll do it next week Talk about it real quick. No, it's a crazy story. We've been talking. Yeah, we haven't fun. Yeah, I'm loving it We've been talking. I just feel like now I'm just yelling you well, you know, you love that too. I know but I also Do you think people listen to this show to not hear you yell? Oh god, they hear they hear they are either What they are they love it or think you're stupid and either way they keep listening sometimes though when you read the reviews You're almost like how are you surprised by me?
Starting point is 01:03:33 How are you how do you not know what this is or what I am Especially after seeing our show you just saw us the dad's garage where we just were so ridiculous So then I'm like you're gonna try to take my opinion on this seriously Yeah, man. That was, God, that's just keep blowing smoke up our own asses. I love that we did two shows completely different back to back. And we're going to each time. Not each time.
Starting point is 01:03:53 Well, side stories, you know, sometimes a little bit different. Yeah, sometimes. Yeah. All right. So let's do some listener emails. It's fun. I like that one. Did someone send that in? Did you make that Rob? Rob yeah, no someone sent that we send that in that was from Christopia good work
Starting point is 01:04:10 Music calm do you want to hear more? No no we're gonna do different each week different each week Yeah, we'll just keep going keep sending them all right side stories LP O TL a gmail.com. That was really fun Chris tilapia mmm. I know it was the first thing I thought we need We're gonna stop doing this. Yeah, I love you buddy. Here we go, we got some stories. I'm gonna suck on your gills, Chris. I got some stories, here we go.
Starting point is 01:04:30 I'm gonna do two stories here. All right, two. My husband and I were hiking through the woods near our home in the upper peninsula of Michigan. Ah, youpers! Couple of youpers. The trail we were on was a long one. Probably about a mile into the forest.
Starting point is 01:04:45 Hadn't seen another person for the whole hike. Living here is the best. More trees than people. I was stopped in my tracks by noise. My brain immediately started working to make sense of what I was hearing. I thought maybe a plane or train from the tracks that run not too far from where we were hiking. But very quickly the noise got loud.
Starting point is 01:05:07 Really really loud. I could feel it moving towards us, vibrating, and it was coming from above our heads. It was so loud and so powerful that my next thought was some kind of giant bomb had been dropped nearby, and the sound was the blast wave rushing towards us. It was intense enough to cause me to pivot and sprint in the opposite direction. I screamed to my husband, where the fuck is that? And he started running in the other direction with me.
Starting point is 01:05:34 This noise was deafening. And like I said, we could both feel it. We were both looking up, expecting to see something giant overhead, but there was nothing there. We noticed that none of the leaves were moving at all. There was no wind, no movement of any kind, even though the sound would have caused the trees to tremble and shake, and the branches to be whipping around. As soon as we sprinted in the opposite direction, the sound stopped coming towards us.
Starting point is 01:05:58 It didn't go away, it just backed off a little bit, like it could tell that it had spooked us, and maybe it didn't mean to. It didn't go over and past us. It distinctly retreated back in the direction it came from. So we stopped running and it stayed for a short while. We could feel it hovering at a safe distance for probably 30 to 60 seconds, and then it went back the way that it came and was gone. This happened just under five years ago. To this day, it's the wildest thing my husband
Starting point is 01:06:26 and I have ever experienced. We still talk about it regularly and try to explain away what we felt and heard, but to date, we haven't been able to come up with any kind of explanation for what happened on that day. Really interesting, I do think that in the Yuper area, though, they do end up doing a lot of weird flights, and there is weird stuff out there.
Starting point is 01:06:44 Yeah, because that's all, they're looking at Canada. Yeah, it's like out in the middle of stuff out there. Yeah, cuz that's all that's just they're looking at Canada Yeah, it's like out in the middle of nowhere out there. Yeah, there's nothing going on This is also where they're trying to get their Bigfoot photos from. Yes. Also I have Let's just say guys I've seen some attempts to get the one pound of weed prize from Side Stories for the Actual pay for an actual picture of Bigfoot. And I gotta say, well, I do appreciate what I've received so far.
Starting point is 01:07:09 Nothing good enough? No, and I will say I've also, I wanna get a real picture of a Bigfoot, try to me, get me, get in there, I need a good one, okay? Also though, you know what I did get? What? It wasn't a video, it was a testimony testimony and I asked for this for a long time
Starting point is 01:07:26 I asked them for somebody to film a video of them twerking and turning on a clapper He did it with his mantis in his belly. Whoa. Yes We have the video this to me side stories LP OCL gmail.com if that was you I forgot who sent that email if that was you I need to see video of that They said he flapped his mantits and he flapped his belly and he activated the clappers. Yeah, I think that's worth at least an eighth. I think that's better.
Starting point is 01:07:49 We're not giving those guys weed. I mean, they need it. But that's different. If he's flapping his titties and turning the fucking clapper on and off, I'll give him an eighth of weed. OK. I'm with you with that, half an eighth. Oh, yeah, two eighths.
Starting point is 01:07:59 Two eighths. Yeah, yeah. But you got to come get it in town. You get a pound if you give us a full picture of you a big foot and you have to pick it up In California because we can't mail a pound of weed to wherever you live. No, not anymore. Yeah, unfortunately. No, we're too big now Yeah, there's humble chill. Okay. I mean that's a humble show. You're bringing weed to us Yeah on that humble chill. That'll be really easy for us to just transfer it to one person to the next Yeah, some guy will be in front of you and give us a pound of weed and then I'll just hand it to the next guy.
Starting point is 01:08:29 Alright, here we go. One more. One more of this. This is about a child wedding. Oh great. So I was listening to the most... Thank God. We didn't do that enough earlier. I have quite an interesting story. I've had a marriage that also almost happened between a grown man and a child. I used to work at a five-star hotel in California, and it was a very popular venue
Starting point is 01:08:48 for high-end weddings and events. I was in group sales, so I dealt with the clientele when it came to weddings and other groups. One day, we had a man of a certain nationality come with his fiancee to inquire about having their wedding at our hotel. We went through all the details with them, and she seemed very interested and excited for the wedding
Starting point is 01:09:06 and how we were going to put it on for them. They were planning it for about a year, for a year out, and we spent that year sending emails and exchanging phone calls, planning this whole wedding for both of them. I spoke with them and nothing seemed out of the ordinary. That is until the week of the wedding came and everybody started checking in.
Starting point is 01:09:24 They had about four days worth of festivities planned and other events with the third day being the main wedding What the fuck dude? So that Bezos shit. What are these guys doing? They're all acting like fucking disgusting I don't four day thing for my wedding. No, I talk about like a real four day thing We went to like a fucking theme dark car. Yeah. Yeah, but that was no you didn't rent out the theme park No, that's what they're talking told everyone to go. Yes We should have rented out the theme park I would be right I should have that would have been cool now It's a little weird for dinners things are a little weird
Starting point is 01:10:01 When for dinners and the other events the lady who had been been talking to you seemed to be sitting nowhere near the groom, it was acting like more of an assistant. We chalked it up as a cultural thing and didn't think anything of it. This is when racism works against us, guys. This is when racism, your lack of, you're really trying to be accepting. Yeah, yeah, that's the thing.
Starting point is 01:10:20 Yeah. Yeah, yeah. It's not racism. It's trying not to be racist. Yes, unfortunately, sometimes it backfires. Now's you know, it's anti-racist trying not to be raised. Yes, unfortunately sometimes it backfires now When the day of the wedding comes One of our staff member goes to find the bride to ask her if there's anything else that she needs last minute They went up to the suite and noticed that she was not wearing a wedding dress and we had no indication of her wearing one as she had already put together, she was all put together in another outfit. Our staff member happened to go to the suite at the
Starting point is 01:10:53 same time as the photographer and noticed there was a very young looking girl wearing what seemed to be a wedding dress and the woman who had been talking to this the whole time was just wearing formal attire. The staff member approached me and a manager and told us what she saw. As hospitality workers, we have been trained to ask forgiveness rather than permission when it comes to situations like this in case of human trafficking issues. We come to find out that this is an arranged marriage between her parents and the gentlemen who we've been dealing with. Apparently in certain situations, as long as there is certain consent and court approval, this can happen.
Starting point is 01:11:28 We immediately shut the wedding down and told him that there's absolutely no way we were allowing this to happen at the hotel. The man had to be in his 40s and the girl was no older than 12. However, because there are certain documents and consents in place, the police could do nothing. The only thing that we could do was refuse their service. God bless America You know what it is is that because that's what they do. That's the Mormons do that marry their children Really they bump from they'll go from Utah to Nevada because you can do it
Starting point is 01:11:58 You can go and get like one of those like mail and they go marry a child in, Nevada There's no I believe that it it's, it's something like, it's not that there's no age of consent, but they can get away with it for religious purposes, and it's because they're getting married. Oh. Because you can have sex with a child in Utah as long as it's your wife, Eddie. Oh, Jesus fucking Christ.
Starting point is 01:12:21 I remember the Courtney Stodden thing always freaked me out when she was 16 and married that 40 year old You know parents like signed her over. Yeah, and like the worst part about all of that is how the internet acted No one fucking went after him. They all went after her. Oh, it just trashed her Yeah, and you like some fucking girl who like was forced into like having like, you know Surgeries and shit like that. No, it's not good. Yeah. No Now, of course a divorced, you know, because you know, she got old enough to do it. Yeah marriages don't last Yes, it's so hard. Yeah, you know, you got to talk to your child bride
Starting point is 01:12:53 When you're talking to your child bride and you're gonna get like it was like live every day knowing that when you're talking to your child Brad you're gonna have to teach her about the world Okay, and you're gonna can't leave stuff out and you gotta you gotta love her with all your heart All right, cuz she doesn't have stuff out, and you gotta love her with all your heart, right? Because she doesn't have parents anymore because you took them from her, right? So you just gotta, they make sure you and your child bride, you can laugh all the way to jail together
Starting point is 01:13:15 when you try to defend him with violence against the police when they come and raid your compound. Wow, Archer, you gotta be 18 to get married in California. Under 18 requires consent from at least one parent or guardians that means one parent could be like if you have a crazy father He could just be like yeah sure that's exactly what they do Wow, but also you know it's a it's not good You know marriage yeah God all that hassle going to get married. Yeah, well just your child. It should be hard to get married It really should be should be well no and that well. Yeah, it's much harder to get divorced to get married. Yeah, well, just your child. It should be hard to get married It really should be should be well knowing that well, yeah, it's much harder to get divorced and get married. Oh, yes
Starting point is 01:13:49 Oh, yeah. No, it's way easy to get married. I mean the fact that I've married five people five couples is crazy It's pretty easy. I shouldn't be allowed to do. Oh, yeah, I've done it. Well, we really uh We I was really hoping we were gonna get this fucking verdict. Yeah, it didn't happen No, so you gotta guess you guys just got a longer episode I'm literally just sitting here in this episode hoping that the verdict arrives But first patreon.com slash last podcast on the left you could pay to watch us do this. Yeah, so tomorrow What's gonna happen on? Oh, it's coming already say that they make the announcement. Well did he left the court already? Oh Wow, so he's already he's not even there. Okay well.
