Episode Date: October 19, 2022

Ben 'n' Henry bring you this week's weirdest true crime stories from the road including Lucy Letby the UK's serial baby killing nurse, man who had sex with Elmo doll found guilty, The Stockton Serial Killer detained, a potential "Giant" cover-up, Dad on Dad road rage incident leaves 2 girls shot, missing UK man found dead with evidence of UFO encounter, a steaming hot hero of the week, the return of Mr. Bojangles, and MORE!

There's no place to escape to. This is the last talk on the left side stories. That's when the cannibalism started. Side stories. Yes. We have plenty of stories because there's also just life, Kissel. There's always life. Because the thing about life. There's not always life, actually. No, no, you do die. Mostly death. Yeah, that is true. I was actually, I realized this. I was journaling the other day and I realized that I wrote that down. You're old a lot longer than you're young. Well, I don't think you're ever really old,

though, because even if you die at 90, it's nothing. That's true, because yeah, if you're here, as we walk these streets, right, and you see like just this hotel we're in right now is like 900 years old, which is why like when I sleep at night, and it is true, it used to be a school for the deaf. It is. You do hear the children cry when you're trying to sleep, but then I actually think maybe someone's just getting plowed next door. It's very possible. Also, that's the nice thing about being one of the children. You don't get to hear the tears, do you? No.

So welcome to the show, everyone. This is Side Stories. I'm Ben hanging out with Henry. We want to thank everyone who's come out to the shows. The shows have been fantastic and so fun. So good. So we did a little like mid-tour stop-off. So we're in Dublin and Dublin was fucking awesome. We got to go to this. So fun. Like after the show, we got to go to this place called the Hacienda, where you had a knock and then it was like a man that basically was, he looked like a friendlier version of Jimmy Savile. He did, yes, which is actually, Jimmy Savile did look quite friendly. So could we trust him? Yeah, I mean, that was the whole point. He didn't play in sight with a smile.

It was a crackling smile, but he was a smile. I mean, he always looked like a jack-o-lantern to me. I thought he was very frightening as a person, Jimmy Savile, but everyone kind of thought, well, he's a bit old, but that's not bad. But then the guy opened it up and it was awesome. We got to like, we have some drinks and it was fun. And I remember the guy, the owner, he was like, you see, I have refused thousands. He was very proud of that. He was very proud. He was very proud. And that was really fun. But the next day. But the first thing he did ask as soon as we showed up was how long you're going to be here, which reminded me when I went to go see with Ed Larson, our boy Eddie, listen to brighter side,

when we're going to go see Don Rickles. And the first thing a person said as soon as they sat down was, how long's the show? It's not going to be that long because Don Rickles is also in his eighties, buddy. It's not going to be five effin hours. He's covered in tombstone dust. It's nice when we show up, people, for some reason want to know how long. How long will you chug? Okay. But the next day we went to Liverpool, right? Cause we wanted to check it out because again, I wanted to see, we've been reading about this time slips on both streets. We know that for certain because everybody's, which also feels a little pedantic because people keep saying stuff being like, so you're here for the Beatles store. And we're like, no, we're here to get hammered.

We're here to get absolutely hammered. And you know, it's home of the Beatles because outside of the airport in Liverpool, there's one of the rustiest yellow submarines you could ever imagine. It doesn't say Beatles on it. It doesn't really look like a submarine. It looks like the yellow submarine they used to fight the Nazis in World War II. But that lets you know it's the home of the Beatles. It also makes me realize why they left. You know, but it was fun. It was a, it was truly a lovely town. We had a great time. We were, so we went down bold street. I didn't experience a time slip, but I did. We did go out, right? So can I just say this when it comes to time slips? I, oh, you know me, I'm looking, I'm looking on the bright side. Sure. I'm trying to

believe. Yes. After 12 hours in Liverpool, seeing the amount of just raging alcoholism and the drug use, which is great. It's fun. Very happy for them. We're slightly too old for it, but it seemed like even the old people were still young there. I don't believe it because I don't think anyone is sober enough to experience anything extraterrestrial. When you go down the street, as you go down each down separate corners, you could see like, there's like psychedelic music coming out of the shops or people dressed like, I guess it's also very like stylish, very cool, very pretty. Dressed in the 1960s. Everybody looks very cool. Yeah. You can kind of see half drunk. Maybe you'll go down the alleyway and you are transported to a vintage shop. A vintage shop.

But then you're like, ooh, it's 1960. You're bloated with the time traveling fuel that is Carlsberg, which really does help. But I will say that night as we were walking around. So first of all, we had a lovely bartender at this place. We stopped at Teddy's, right? And we got there like nine a p.m. or whatever. And we were like tired from the road and we were drinking and like, we asked the person, we're like, oh, so when this place closed down, she's like, oh, you're very early. You're here for a year. You can be here too far, far at C5. We're all like, holy fucking shit. That's super late. All right. But I didn't see what, I don't know, like who'd be out that late, right? It was a Berlin like experience because in Berlin,

we were finishing up the show and we talked to our tour guide at the time and he was like, well, yeah, the club's going to be great. We're like, we'll go right after the show. He's like, you fucking morons. You don't show up till 3 a.m. We're like, what? You did not even go to the club until 2 a.m. We're like, I'm tired. I'm exhausted, sir. But at the end of the night, when we finally found an old man bar, it was great. We had a couple of wheels. So we were wrapping up the night, 1145, we go to sleep. The town becomes filled with drunk children. You know, I can't, because I went to go give one speech at a university and I believe the person that booked me got fired for booking me. Sure. But they are all, I couldn't tell if they

were 16 or 24. I don't know. They were so young, one guy. They were young. We were walking. It was like maybe 9.30 and he's horking on the side of the street and his buddies were like, man, you got to stay awake. Not because they were going to take them home. I think they were like, don't ruin this night for us, dude, because we have to take you back. Or you're just going to sleep here on this corner. But it felt like we got transported to where Pinocchio went, where all the children turned into donkeys. It really was. It was just them all like they no clothes on. And I never felt cold. I felt like a fucking high school principal where I've been like, you need to be back in your goddamn home. But no, honestly, but otherwise, what a lovely

surprise. And I will have to eat some crow, which I do think I did eat in Edinburgh. But we had a great meal at the Papillon in Liverpool. The food has been really good. And for what I will eat a little bit of crow myself, I say warm beers all around. I think they figured out refrigeration during COVID. Something happened where they're like, what if we just make this shit cold? Yeah, what if we make it so it's good? And then they did. And so I've been quite happy. But I was a little bit concerned going to Liverpool because it was closest for the WWE fans, you know, but the plane ride from hell. It was like that much tamer because we had to sit in a seat. The seat I couldn't even fit in. It was the first time I had used an extender seat belt,

not because I was too fat, but because I couldn't get the seat belt. It didn't physically fit. It was tight for me. I was stuck in there. And so as soon as the plane takes off, all of these dudes storm what I think is the cockpit, but they're going to get drinks and going to the bathroom. It's a 32 minute flight. It was not the loudest drunks ever. I'm like, where are we going? The whole time I thought I was like, oh, great. So we're a whole night's going to be getting a fight because two guys were like, is your buddy here? Is he here for the footy match? Oh my God, he's big. A guy right there. He's big. And I was just like, I was getting, I was getting eyed up all over the place. They were like trying and it's like, it's fun. I'll

bonk you. I'll bonk you in the head. I don't want to do this though. I'm a foreign man in a foreign land. No, no, we go to big time. We go to big time jail because they're going to believe you're broken English motherfucking ass. And I'm going to be like, I was just trying to defend myself. Do I get over here monster? Yep. And then the next thing you know, I'm in some kind of weird exhibit where they're displaying my bones, like they just killed the world's largest American. But this is why we got to start double, we got to start double team and people where you attack them from up top and I go and take their wallets. I sneak around like vegan. But another thing now that we're here in UK, we are surrounded by UK news and the main story here doing some bad

stuff. Things are fucked up. Number one, though, I will say UK strongest man competition is alive and well and it's fantastic. Look up big red. Look at the red from the UK strongest man competition. He's 30 years old. He looks like a fucking aunt. I have no clue where they make these people. This man is fucking, there is no reason for him to look that. He looks like Aragorn's the country cousin. Oh, that's incredible. He's 30 years old. Look up. He's crazy. He's huge. He's huge. Oh, they're very, very big. Oh, yeah. Wow. He's very strong. He's 30. Well, you know, there's something about having that much muscle on the body that makes you look like you're a 55 year old fantastic stepfather. Wow. He's only 30.

Yeah. Holy shit. That guy. That guy. Well, this is something. Now, I actually don't feel jealous though because he's going to look, well, no, because women seem to like that. They do, but I don't think he's going to be just fine. I think the strong men don't live long lives to be completely frank. It is a very stressful job. It's very difficult. You can see them bleeding out of their eyes and shit. Well, I know that they do have to decrease the muscle at some point because so much muscle can actually be inhibitive of the heart and the blood flow. Yes. So, yeah, take that. Yep. Gym. Gym rats. That's why the Brontosaurus sold died out. It was very difficult for them to maintain their diet. But the other big piece of news

has been this Lucy Let Be case here. Bro, this is freaking nasty. First of all, I did not know how long these trials go for. This trial is going. They're saying it's going to be at least six months. So for those of you that don't know, Lucy Let Be is a nurse that is being accused of murdering seven babies. Yes. And she attempted to kill 15 more, I believe, which also like, how'd you mess that up? But not to be a too blue there. It's a very disgusting story. But going back to your previous question about the average age of a strong man, 47. Wow. This is crazy. Hey, man. So again, you got to fuck. You got to earn it in this life. 40s. I'm going to say this. Stop. I don't know. Put the boulder down. I feel like there's something

simple and just wanting to be the most strong mind. Like, how simple is that? You go up every day, your whole thing. It's like, we used to say, oh, I want to be the funniest guy in the world. And you realize that sucks. Oh, horrible. The funniest guy in the world is also about perception. So it's like, who is it right now? Well, it's probably fluffy to be honest. And we love fluffy in terms of by quantity of humans that have seen him. Yes, it is fluffy, but also it's stuff like, you know, we asked our producer Fernando, but you know, like, oh, we were talking about like comedy idols. Fernando doesn't like Chris Farley. That shows you nothing is universal. This is why we need to change her interview

process of how we hire because that needs to be question number one. However, now that I think about it, I think that's why Fernando was so great at his job. That's what I'm saying because he's not trying to, you know, rub salad dressing all over his head and call himself the human salad, which is what Chris Farley did on a regular basis. If you did it at once, I say Chris kind of funny, but then it was a bit. It was his bit. And I would say, come on, because Norm MacDonald, I watched a, we'll get to some news, but I watched a interview with Norm and he's the first time he's met Farley. Oh, he did. Dump salad dressing on his head and then he turned around and he had a tomato on his ass. Yeah, I remember. So there you go.

Comedy was different then. It was. Or is it the same? I don't know. I feel like we missed some of that energy nowadays. We do. I agree. But Lucy Letby, she was working at Countess of Chester Hospital and she believed that they, so she's being accused of murdering these babies. Now, the thing is, they're saying she dropped in the hot shot in. One mother came in and quote, unquote, interrupted her, pulling a line out of a baby's throat. Like they had intubated the baby and the baby was screaming. The mother was obviously very distressed. Lucy Letby was like, trust me, I'm a nurse. I'm a nurse. Five days later, the baby died. Now, but there's, and now the big controversy is that there has been seen these notes that she was drawing and writing

during the trial. Right. There's things, stuff like how I am evil. I did this, how no one will ever love me. I'll never have a baby. I'll never have a family. And then I killed them. She basically says straight out, I killed them because I couldn't take care of them. But her lawyers are now trying to mess it up. Yeah, I think her lawyers are going to have a little bit of an uphill battle here when it comes to Lucy Letby. I mentioned her name on stage just a few times and our audience obviously very used to true crime. This story, let's say it's hitting pretty close to the heart. Oh, it does. And many people are like, this is public enemy number one. This is Casey Anthony times literally seven. Yes, I'm time seven, but there's something again about a nurse. They're

supposed to save lives, especially during COVID front lines. Now this all took place in 2015, 2016. But we were talking nurses, we love the nurses and we truly do love the nurses. We do. So to take that position and then use it to mirror their babies, it's intense. It's about as bad as it gets. But this is my one devil's advocate stance. You're going to choose it. You get one devil's advocate card a year. This is when you want to use it. This is my one stance. Are you going to defend Lucy Letby? Absolutely. It's not defend, right? It's what if she also happens to be the world's worst fucking nurse? Yes, she is. But I mean, besides being evil, what if she's just the fucking moron? Because think about this, in medical school, the bottom of the class that

graduates still gets to be a nurse. You still get to be a doctor. How many nurses, when Marcus was going through his long COVID shit, how many of these nurses he straight up said like, didn't believe COVID was real, saying weird, like anti-vac, conspiracy theory shit. Yeah, it's like intense, right? So I'm not saying, I'm not, again, all these nurses I know, Natalie's mother is a nurse who was brave and fucking, you guys all hustle and work real hard, which y'all know in your industry, who sucks and who needs to be like, I bet you in every hospital, there's always one person that you have to like, let me just go double check what that person did. Like, I'm just going to go, like the good nurses will go and kind of like, let me just check because that person is like,

now maybe put on the night shift, that they've moved him from the day shift. That's what happened with Lucille Letby. She was on the night shift and like, they're like, all these babies are dying, including a set of twins. And they're like, that's weird. Yeah, it's bad. Let's move her to the day shift. And then they're like, all these babies are dying during the day. It seems like the night baby's doing good. So she was pretty blatant with it. I'm going to go on my way though. Think about how quickly you were fired from Burger King. Oh, two months. But you know what I mean? Like how it was again, injecting a chicken tender with barbecue sauce and ketchup. And this is incredible. Not unlike that, where it's against the rules to do that, right? To inject them with ketchup.

But I'm going to say pushback point counterpoint. She actively did this like a bad nurse, I think is like, I'm on another sandwich. Yeah, fuck you. I'm not going to turn you over. Negligence. Negligence. This took effort. She would also, she just injected people with air or babies with air, which I didn't realize. Why are people even wasting any money on syringe drugs? I guess you could just go pump someone with an ounce of air and they die. Truthfully, we're about to, they're going to start putting out the medical evidence because we are in that hazy middle ground where they're trying to, because you know, her team, her defense team is basically saying what I'm saying, which is what if she's just bad at it, right? What if she's just real bad at it and she loves

babies, but you know what? I love basketball. You know, you're going to put me out there, you know what I mean? I don't know if this is going to really work out for them. I don't think so either, but I'm excited. Excited. Is that the word? I'm interested to see what evidence comes out about like, how do we know? Because like, let's see, like, because you said that she killed one of the babies using insulin and the other one said, using a hot shot, using, you know, putting the air in the lungs. And if she's guilty, you know, string it up. I mean, she's definitely going to have a not very sympathetic prison life. I would not assume. Well, you know, this is definitely, especially now because what we

know about Rose West and Myra Henley and all these types, especially over here, they just, yeah, they get put them away. I mean, deep isolation. As we know in prison, if you like know how to read, you're like the lawyer now. Yeah. So she probably will be able to use her nursing skills in some ways in prison. But anyway, Bernie Wade off, we did all those guys' taxes. We'll keep on following that story. It's huge in the UK. I'm not sure if it's made, we haven't been in the States to tell if it is, if it's big over there, but it seems like it has international possibilities. I mean, it's a horror story. Like this idea, I mean, again, if she is indeed an angel of death, it is, it's just the look on her face. It would not be angel of death, though,

because these babies are their whole lives ahead of them. Angel of death is like, they're 88. They're not doing very good. No, but you know, just again, that's kind of what the category she'd be in. Sort of. That's what they'd say is that she, because a lot of the babies were very sick that she was dealing with. I think they were sick because of her. But it's just the look on her face. That's the most damning thing of all. It's her showing the big spacey-eyed smile with the tiny little baby shirt. She's so vanilla looking and also makes it really scary, which is why with Annabelle, I think they could have just made the doll the Raggedy Ann doll. We've talked about this a long time. But I think there was some legal rights to the Raggedy Ann doll. Well, I always

believe the idea when they start in horror movies, when they make the cursed thing look too creepy, we're like, it's better when it's innocuous. Well, speaking of innocuous and updates, a jury has convicted the man that we covered a few months ago who fucked the Elmo doll. Justice has been served. Hey, so what are you in for? You know that to a tickle me, Elmo? Yeah, I want to fucking, I want to fucking, I want to fucking push it down. I want to gaping. I want to fucking smile. So Kevin Van Luffen, 60 years old, he was found guilty. Apparently it's only a Mr. Manor. He's got to pay a $2,000 fine, maximum two years in prison. And it was a home inspection. No people were hurt, which is great, but it was just disgusting.

You know what? I was hurt. I was hurt as well. And our show was hurt. The content was hurt. This isn't the content we'd love to use or have. Honestly, it is. It's fantastic for us to content wise, but I just mean in terms of society, I think it does hurt. So again, just long story short, the family was like, what's going on at our house? Let's go check in and see what this dude's doing because he was a home inspector. And then they found him jerking off with the Elmo doll and they're like, well, that's kind of strange. So then he was arrested. He still defends himself by saying, I never penetrated it. And then he just rubbed it on. I rubbed it on me. Honestly, in a way, it was almost like, what was Elmo thinking?

Yeah. Tickle me Elmo. That's what it was. That's what's fucked up about it. It's not like, hey, you should tickle Elmo or ask Elmo if it wants to be tickled. It's Elmo dying to be tickled by whoever stranger just walks past. The police did report that Van Looven admitted to quote placing his penis in Elmo's mouth in the doll's mouth. And then he apologized and said he was, quote, ashamed. So he was, but so that's good. So I just don't want a day. Not feeling good. What a day. Also the Elmo, I feel like Elmo just might need to go on the back burner for a while because I believe the man who played Elmo voiced Elmo also banged like a lot of teenage boys. I feel like there's a whole thing. I don't know about all that scandal. It's complicated. Anyway,

Elmo's just has a lot going on. I feel that Elmo in, yeah, just give them, you know, we should bring back up. Where's Gonzo? Bring Gonzo. Where's Gonzo? Love Gonzo. I miss Gonzo. And also if you're going to stick your dick in something's mouth, it's got that hook shape like nose thing. You could put your dick right through there. You won't have to come through it at all. Yep. That's, I've seen some of these devices they use. No. Oh, also, do you want to do one more update on the Stockton serial killer? Of course, absolutely. So we got right here. Wesley Brownlee has been arrested as the Stockton serial killer. Well, you know, he is suspected by it. It is interesting because it was he was caught by tip and they caught him mid stock.

Yeah, dude, this is really scary when they caught him dressed in black. He had a mask on just like he was in the surveillance video that was put out and he had a gun on him, which was a one of those pre like guns that you can just assemble. You heard about this thing where you basically go and you buy a kit and then you put it all together yourself. It's like that Johnny Cash song where you put the car together one piece at a time after stealing it slowly over the years as he was an employee. The one thing I have to say about this, if you use the same disguise every time you commit the crime, it's no longer a disguise. Now it becomes a mitigating factor in your arrest. So if you're going, I'm not giving tips out there, but each mix it up, mix it up. Now you're the clown

shooter next time you're the pirate shooter because otherwise the cops know exactly what you look like and then the point of the disguise is now gone. It's gone, but I do think in a way he wanted to be a son of Sam style killer. We're going to, I think he wanted to be caught. He was. He was. He wants to be known. Well, I mean, you know, again, he's still accused. We're going to find out, but there's a lot of glaring evidence here. They believe that ballistics connect the gun. They think it was one gun that did all the crimes and they believe it was the gun that he had in his possession. They do say that that Chicago, so we, as we put out the episode, there were several people who sent this, like there was this other opinion that there was this weird Chicago shooter

that was seen with a weird staggered walk. They said that might have, like he was kind of like a mosey. I'd even put it towards a mosey. And they think there were some people trying to connect the Stockton killer to that killer, but their cops are in Chicago saying that they are not connected right now. Okay. Yeah. It's kind of a Jack the Ripper situation where, but you know, it is crazy that I wonder who tipped them off. Like, how did they tip him off so directly? Cause they said they found his apartment. They knew it was him and they watched him the entire night. They watched him leave the apartment. They followed him. The citizen did some cops did cops did after it all came from a tip and they said they got hundreds of tips as soon as they put out the surveillance

video. And I wonder how they chose that. Do you ever fantasize like every time as a kid, you watch, you know, America's most wanted or something ever fantasized about it being like your neighbor. I always do. And then it would be like, Oh my God, it's Mr. Robinson. I'm trying to make it one of my neighbors. You know, I want to, I want to be, you know me, but then it's also very scary. I know, no, I want to investigate. I eventually I will be a private private investigator who is very public. I love to do it. That's like retiring and beginning into the restaurant business. No, you don't want to be a private investigator. My father and I have talked about it. He's still like, you know, right now, he just wants to sit in a slightly more comfortable seat.

It's fun. But I think about this about like, I love to go, I test myself, but I try to do. So when I walk down the street and I see somebody, right, I scan them, right? And then I try to remember details about them later on. Profiling them. No, any race. No, I'm not saying it's a racial profile. I'm saying you're profiling. Yes, we should. H one should be profiled. We should live in our own like, don't let the government surveil us, surveil ourselves. And it's important because if you want to find out how tall somebody is, you got to put position posts or you stand real close to them and you stand up real tall and you see how far it is compared to the top. Of course, you always travel with your measuring tape and your shoe size, measure and all of

those sort of sorts of things. No, if I could stop a serial killer, I could be in the show. I could do in the show. I just go back. I'd be a crime buster. It would make it would be better if you stayed. Yeah, but I go back. I would then we would actually have the then we would have the carp launch to actually do this. If I get, let me ask this question side stories LPOTLGmail.com. If I just catch a serial killer on my own, do I just get to become a homicide detective? You should be able to at least get a badge like Hershel Walker had. You should at least get an honor at a fucking Halloween store. I have a badge. What is wrong with our country? I have badges in my home.

It is fun to watch the American news from across the pond because, you know, but they're fucked over here too. So I don't feel so bad. Whenever all they eat is beans here. Well, speaking of rubberies, which I'm not sure if we were, but now we are. So I'll say speaking of robbery. Rubberies. There's this dude. Did you see this in Florida? This guy robbed a bank with a finger gun, got 120 bucks, but they still arrested him for armed robbery. Amen. That was a finger robbery at most, but it was, he was an armed. It's all about perception. And he showed us the problem is, is that they really did this to nip this in the butt because if everybody's fingers can turn into guns, no one is safe. It's like that scene from Mr. Bean

with when he messed up with Whistler's mother, but he had the whole thing put down the gun, but it was a finger gun. He put that in his hand, which was funny. I was walking on the street in Manchester yesterday and I heard like, Oh, you want a fucking gun? What are you a fucking American to somebody? They want guns. Uh, some man. It's the thing. When you travel, you do find yourself defending guns sometimes. Well, because again, the Liverpool maniacs that we were on the flight with, I was like, if we, if there was an air marshal up here, they would have all been hogtied. Well, yeah, they don't live in fear. So they fight. Look at the fears needed. Yeah, I know, but you can still get your face slashed open. Oh, I know, but I'm just saying

there's not the same amount of fear that the gun instills, not that I'm saying in favor of it. It does change human behavior. However, so this dude, no, I didn't realize how scared we were in America. Oh, we got here. This dude just walked in, get his hand under his shirt, and then he made a figure that he made a shape of a gun with his finger. And then he's like, don't push any buttons. And then he only got 120 bucks. Oh, because you have to act like it's a gun. The second time I was mugged, it was through a guy with the finger gun in the shirt, but you have to act like it's my dad always basically told me, you have to act like it's a gun because if it is a gun, he'll fucking shoot you. But if not, and then do punch your stomach.

Yeah. Yeah. But anyway, so he made 120 bucks. That's a power of perception that shows that performances can really equalize things in this life. It's all about be the robber you want to be to other people. I mean, I'm just saying if I'm his lawyer charged with armed robbery, I say, well, then all of us aren't we all carrying guns now, aren't you, jury? And then the jury, don't you have two guns on you right now, then jury technically, it's handed robbery. It is. That's funny. It is good. Isn't that funny? Very nice. Let's talk about the story. Now, there is you, I might have gotten fooled by an ARG, but I don't really care because it's really fun. And it's really it's good spooky things, spooky times, right? Giants. I'm here with one.

Not technically. No, no, actually, you're still not technically a giant. Is it over? It's got to be over seven feet because it has to be. We didn't have a chance to tour the Leprechaun Museum in Dublin. No, we're not at random like mandatory tour. And I was just like, I just needed to do it in 15 minutes, which is so leprechaun of them. 60 minute mandatory guided tour. But I think it has to be like seven to or something to be a giant. And then gigantism is actually the thing, Andre, that someone considered a girlfriend. That's the first thing is very sad. Really, really sad. Seven feet. That's it. Yeah, you know, we're near though. Oh, five inches are important. That's what I tell my wife. A solid five inches right there.

I'll cut it off, put it on my head. Technically, that's still me. He's a dick giant. Oh my God, he's got a cock. He's a cock giant. Anyway, so giants. Now, this was a, this guy by the name of Andrew Dawson, right? He's under Andrew capped on Tik Tok. He filmed what appeared to be a massive, a giant, this giant, human looking dude, right at the top of Whistler's Peak Mountain in Canada, right? Speaking of Whistler's very nice. No, it was really fucking cool. It's cool little video. It might be fake, which is fine. I looked it up and some people are saying that it's fake. And obviously, it looks good. I'll take it. Yeah, I love it. That's kind of how I am with it. It's like, all right, it could be fake, but if it's whatever, just give me something. Give me something.

It's just fun to do. It's fun to look up. But so he went and he saw this giant and then he filmed it and it went viral on Tik Tok. And then it proceeded to get weirder and weirder from there because he kept trying to go back up to the mountain and people, after he saw it, people, like you have all these Tik Tok videos. They start hunting the giant. Oh, yeah. Well, he wanted to see it, right? He wanted to see its feet. And so people were turning him away on the road. He said then a weird government car stopped him as he was going back up to the mountain again to see if he can get a closer look at the peak. And they said, we were doing these environmental extracting whatever, that mean horseshit, tunnel like horseshit. Okay. And that you couldn't go

up there. And he was like, that's fine. But then he showed videos of a car in front of his house saying that he was being trapped. They received feel like he was being stalked. And he wanted to go talk to the car. Because you know, the giant would drive, probably drive a little car like that tall guy from the Simpsons, which is the only tall person representation in the Simpsons. You know, I've been watching a lot of Simpsons here in the UK. And it's not good. They love it here, though. The Simpsons is just as big here as it was in the 90s. Yes. Yes. Yes. Very big. But so he goes to confront this car that's parked in front of his house and appeals off, right? So this ends the mystery. That is scary, though. Yes. Anytime you look at it, you're like,

what are they doing? But the dude then gets contacted by people that are concerned because he went dark on Tik Tok. The guy who filmed the giant. Yes. When I'm dark on Tik Tok, and he was trying to say, Hey, all of this shit is fake. I, I've been making it up. Like, I don't know. Like, yeah, I've just letting you guys know this is all like, it's not your decision anymore, buddy. Oh, yeah. You put it out in the gen pop. I don't know. He was trying to say, like, you know, he's trying to roll it back. But then he put out another video saying he believes now that he was definitely getting like, tailed by the police. And then he's saying that people are following him. And then he started getting really nervous to say all this shit. Like, you know, I kind of

ship him in black guys and weird government cars saying shit to him. But the thing that is the most mysterious of all, now, I was trying to find out whether or not this website is real is that the dude called totally fake news.com. Oh, wow. But I thought it was like, I was like opposite opposite. Got it. Um, but he's fucking dead. The dude who filmed the big foot's dead. Yeah. So July 1st, 2022, they found he died. They found their death notices for this guy who's named Andrew Ryan Watchhorn Dawson. Now, I might be again, I might have been completely fooled. And I don't care because it's fucking, it is fun as hell. If it is real, then great. Anything that is breaking from reality. But it's Andrew Ryan Watchhorn Dawson. And there's an

obituary in the Campbell River Mirror. Now I look this up and I love the Campbell River Mirror. You're going to find out more, you're going to find out all the news about soda pop. You'll find out all the news about different flavors of Ben and Jerry's ice cream. You wouldn't believe up to date jelly gummy bear news. There actually was gummy bear news recently about these world's hottest gummy bears that these tiktokers are eating and they're just throwing up violently. They deserve it. No need for it. They deserve it. No, I know they do. If you eat it, you're going to get what you get. But my thing is that if this is fake, this is an incredibly detailed fake in terms of his death. But you know, if you guys can find it,

if you're like, this is all from a website called the confessionalspodcast.com. And I don't know what else they cover or anything else, but he wasn't like destroyed. Like there wasn't like big giant teeth marks in them or he wasn't like ripped to shreds like that giant broke into his house or anything. Was it colon cancer? It says nothing. It says November 4th, 1987 to July 1st, 2022. Oh, he was young. It says in loving memory, loving husband, father, uncle, brother, and son. Wait, he was born in 87? 87, yeah. And he already had kids and stuff? Oh yeah. You can have kids at fucking 13, bro. You can just see him. Look at what we just saw. All of it literally, that's, oh, they're in Liverpool. You just saw the, that's a generation

of children that are all just about to get pregnant and their lives are over. Seriously, it looked like birthright. If those people were out there and you could tell those were the best moments of their life. And I agree. We walked near at least 10% of the women who were walked by, that's the last night they won't be pregnant because that night they bred. But that's very interesting. Wow. And so we'll keep you updated on all the giant news as we see it here on Side Stories. I would say colon cancer is a possibility because I think if I saw a giant, I would not shit at all for whatever because I would literally be too scared. And you know what? If he did die, not connection to any of this, let's say it's all fake and he

made this up, but then he did die of unforeseen circumstances. Dude, you did it. You made one mystery in the world and that's really all you can really hope for, especially in the world of the paranormal. I mean, you could also live and write a book. Yeah, that would really be nice. But here, I'm looking up all these different updates because then yeah, he has died. They just, no one has any fucking clue. Nobody has any fucking clue. It seems suspicious to me. Well, speaking of death, there was that one story we covered on last podcast about Charles Manson and his followers. So it's funny, but it's strange to think it wasn't that far far along ago. The crime was committed and there's people still alive. 1969, 1969,

Patricia Crenwin. 67 years ago. It's a long time ago, but there's still a lot. Patricia Crenwin Cole, she was up for parole, but then Gavin Newsom said she still poses an unreasonable danger to society. I mean, it paroled at this time. I'm not going to go on the limb. I'm not going to cry for this woman. Yeah, she could stay in jail, but she's 70. At this point, she probably loves it. What do you do, you knit and shit? She's 74. What would she do outside of jail? Yeah. And I think that the sister of the main gal that was murdered, their Sharon Tate, I think she still goes to all of the... Oh, yeah, she should. The parolier. And so anyway, there's just an update that keeps on updating with the Manson family. Crenwin Cole will not be out. And you know,

Marcus and I were doing all the various like spooky tourism when we were in Edinburgh, like, you know, went to Greyfriars Kirkyard as we always do. And we loved, like, you know, we had such a good time. But that was like, we were kind of lamenting, which means like, man, Charles Manson had any fucking balls. He would have let his body be put on tour. And I would have showed up at every location. We would have opened for him. He should have stuck with Star the fact that he was like, nah, she just wants you for the money. It's like, yeah, buddy, she doesn't want you for the charm. You're Charles Manson. You're in prison. What the fuck are you talking about? You've become such an incoherent gremlin that you should just be happy. She might even touch

her old dick and balls through the fucking hole in your isolation chamber. Like, yeah, man, just get your tug and have your bite. That was how he could have been immortalized because now he's just some unmarked prison grave and we can go piss on it. And it's really sad because that's our freedom. We should be allowed to go and gawk at his tanned corpse and eat popcorn and go like, yeah, yeah. You know, it would be just like when we go to the rock and roll whole family, like everything's tinier than I thought it would be. Oh, yeah, of course. Because he's probably 411 at this point. I walked past Simone and Lisa in the Louvre. It's small. It's nothing. It's just so small. It's fine. I don't know. It's fine. Also, people also got all upset about the Van

Krach protesters. People put paint on the Van Krach. Yeah, but it's covered in glass. He just went the glass off. I told us none of it mattered. Also, just don't waste the soup. Yeah, I'm just glad to rub the soup. What's the soup got to do with it? Yeah. Yeah. Well, you know, he was sad. Yeah. So it's really fucking sad. Crenwinkel's still there. Is Tex Watson still on? I think he's dead. I think most of them are dead. Yeah, I think the rest of them are dead. I think Tex Watson, I believe. It's probably best that she stays there because I don't want to see her podcast. I don't want to see like Crenwinkel's take because she's not going to talk about true crime. She's going to talk about like politics.

She's going to be like Crenwinkel's angle and she's going to talk about the environment and stuff. And it's like, I don't need to hear her opinions on anything. No, I don't want her on Rogan. No, she's Tex Watson still alive. Is you really? No, look at that shit. I had a chance to interview Diane Lake way back in the day. I think we also interviewed Diane Lake. He taught Diane Lake how to drive and her experiences with Tex were great. I was like, you know, I mean, that's why it's all those stories where people were like, Bill Murray was nice to me. Are you really Cosby? You're like, oh, you was a funny guy. Let's not equate the two. Cosby did say Cosby was an asshole in every sense of the word.

Finally, from the caffeine-addled brains of Spring Hill Jack Coffee and Last Podcast on the left. Bre bring you Mothman's red eye blend. Yes, delicious Panama beans. Go to lastpodcastmerch.com to order yours today. Well, speaking of assholes, just lastly, I don't stop shooting at people. This story, these two dumb motherfucking dads, right? William Hale, he's 43, and this guy Frank Allison, they got involved in a road rage incident. Henry Zabrowski. Hey, I was talking about this with our road manager, Brian, about how Google uses your metrics. They can tell how fast you go

and how fast you walk on the Google map. So sometimes, if you put walking destination times, like if you walk faster than somebody else, they'll actually give you a short amount of time. I'll get there in negative five minutes. But I discovered that Natalie and I's Google maps are, mine is always 15 minutes earlier than hers because that must be how fast I drive. And then mine is always slower because it has to be read for the accident that you caused. Hey, that's, but hey, that's all behind me, man. I know. Fuck you, dude. It's like the penguin in the, in the new Batman movie. Anyway, so these dumb fucking assholes were in a road rage incident with two of, both of them had their daughters in the car.

Fuck, calm down. Especially if you've got family in the car. I am a very different driver when Natalie is in the car versus when it's just Henry Zagrowski. When it's just Henry Zagrowski, I'm looking out for number fucking one. They were brake checking each other. They were getting in front of each other. Oh God. I do do this though. It's such fucking bullshit. And then one of them took out a stupid gun and he shot the dude, but he didn't shoot the dad. He shot the guy's daughter. And then his, this dude's daughter's bleeding out and he's like, nah, I'm going to go get him. So instead of going to the hospital, which you think you do, take a license plate down, you'll get him later, speeds up to the car

and shoots at him. And then he shoots the other guy's daughter. So both of these daughters are just sitting there like, what the fuck are you doing? They do sound like a murderous sketch. It's the dumbest thing. It's a five year old girl. She was hit in the leg. And then the other girl was hit. She was a 14 year old girl. Where was this? She was hit in the back. What state is this? This takes place in Nassau County. So I believe that's Jersey. Whoa. Nassau County, Long Island? Long Island. Yes. This is Long Island. No shit. I'm sorry. In Florida. Oh yeah. Okay. Okay. That makes more sense. Nassau County Sheriff's office in Florida. So now they've both been charged with attempted murder of each other's

daughters. It's just what the fuck are these morons thinking? Well, that constantly reminds me to you got to be careful. You can't do it because people will shoot you like you really can't. You can't give anybody the finger. Especially you buddy. You got that soft top. It's true. Yes. But also it's why I wear Kevlar when I drive. But I also think horns are there for communication. Right? Sometimes you got to give it to. Like you don't lane on it. You just go. Just a friendly like, hey, you need to turn here. I've had the honk happen to me. And I look up. I'm like, yeah, why the fuck? I was looking at my phone. Yeah. Yeah. It's me just looking at like the fucking gilfs and between my knees. Always.

That's what you do. But LA is for some reason, people don't register the green light. It takes about 10 seconds or it's green because they're highest fuck. It's possibly that. But anyway, be careful and don't get involved in a road rage instance. But especially if you're with your children in the car, what are you thinking? Someone in a truck through a plastic bottle? Yeah, man. The open window of the knees. I don't know what people do in kids in the car. If you're a consenting adult, they want to shoot some other consenting adult in the head. And I guess you guys all love it. You can have each other, you know, try to make sure there's no other cars on the road. And yeah, you guys can go and do your little twisted metal death

match. Why do you just kiss? It seems like they may have wanted to just fucking kiss. It may be that there is one last story we get to. Um, this takes place in the West. You're a share town, a tingly. Oh, I love tingly. This is this came in. This is in 1980. This is a good fun UFO story. So now I guess there's a place called Todd Morden. God knows how it's going to go. Again, side stories, LPOTL, the gmail.com. Feel free to tell me. We're learning more. We're learning. Yeah. But then the more I learn, the more my contrarian nature, like I was like Edinburgh, and they're like, it's Edinburgh. And I was like, technically Edinburgh sounds nicer. But like, it's Edinburgh. Yeah. Well, he's like, okay, I know. Fine.

Well, there it's the same thing. It's like how I accidentally pulled out a pile of pounds when we were in Dublin. And as I went to go to the bar, Marcus grabbed my wrist and said, they will fucking stab you in the throat in this establishment. If you fucking don't give so you better not do that. And I was right. And I didn't even mean to. I just was fucking. I was like, this is how you learn. I have gotten very few transactions right thus far. But that's fine. Now, this is the story of Zygmund Damsky. Now he was 56 years old. He went missing from his home. Now he left his house on June 6 to walk to the local shops. And he was never seen again alive. Five days later, Damsky's body was found on top of a

10 foot high pile of coal by a yard worker, Trevor Parker. This is in Trevor Park in Todd Morden, 20 miles away from where he went missing. There's many mysterious circumstances that was around his whole like everything. And so he was missing for five days. He was wearing a suit. But when they found him, he was improperly like put together in his shirt wallet and his watch were missing. They were gone. So maybe, you know, again, Rob robbery robbery with an anal ingus, right? I don't know. Now, despite being missing, he was missing for five days. He had only one day of beard growth. They said that he just was weird. He was gone for a long time. They don't know maybe we don't know what happened, right? Even when you're dead,

I guess the beard grows a little bit. And his hair was cut. His hair was cut. But his he was covered in burn marks. And then they said that he was covered in a gel that he couldn't identify. Again, I don't know whether or not he just met up with Lindsey Graham, or they were just like, I don't know your future whole body inside me. I don't know if it was the Todd Morden. You know how in the brambles, you know, the brambles, when you get in the dark and everybody gets covered in so it's the next thing you know, you're switching wallets and each other's hair and sucking each other's dick. I don't know anything that happened. But this is the it opened up to apparently this town and became a UFO hotspot in Northern England. It is all over. There's so

many different stories that are attached to this. And there's a there's a book written about it called the Penine UFO mystery that I do want to get into. But it's crazy because even now to this day, people meet up at the Golden Lion Pub there for these UFO meetings. I just want to go people just hide that people are more fun here with this shit. They are more fun. Maybe I think it's just older here. Yeah. Anyway, well, that's awesome. That's really just that story, just the idea of just like, go and missing. It's just like, I love a mystery. I don't want to end up on just a pile of coals. No, I'm really trying to live my life so that I don't. All right, everyone, let's do Hero of the Week. This is actually a Scottish nightclub that's going to be Hero of the Week.

Why, you ask? Well, it's because it is 100% powered from the heat of the dancers. This is, of course, the partygoers in Scotland. It has moved the venue to thermal energy. So a Scottish nightclub. No, you're saying B.O. It is fueled by B.O. Yeah, the Scottish nightclub. It has found it can reduce its carbon footprint by 70%. So they're having all the fucking energy crisis here, right? They're having all the heating costs are going fucking sky-high because their economy's falling to shit. So they can reduce their carbon footprint by 70 tons per year, rather. By just holding each other's fucking gunk? Well, it's the Glasgow Arts venue, SWG3,

and doesn't that sound fun to go to? The dancers from the people doing God knows what kind of dance is, it can create 250 to 600 watts, depending on how intense the music is. Disgusting. It is foul. It is not supposed to be like that. So the Down Rock Energy Geothermal designed the system, which they aptly branded as body heat. Seriously, that is one of the grossest things I've heard in a while. And I just saw the full Irish pizza that Papa John's had in double. So according to this dude, David Townsend, he says, but if you've got a big DJ, absolutely slamming baselines and making everyone jump up and down,

you can be generating 500 to 600 watts of thermal energy. I don't know. So this is just very impressive, and it's disgusting, but it's here of the week. And I feel like they're also just going to really make sure that there's no air conditioning in the club, and it sounds like a horrible place to be. But anyway, isn't that interesting when it comes to combating your climate footprint there? I would just love to do anything else. Why don't we just use candles? Like if you're going to do something use, maybe that will help. I'm just not quite sure.

I just love the idea, especially in Glasgow, of the dance moves that would be required in order to generate this amount of knees up. Oh, hey, you know, we remember in Glasgow is when we saw, we went to that one, that club, late night club, where it was just a bunch of like elderly people in fluorescent lights, dirty fucking just pubic bone on pubic bone grind in each other in a fucking they were so sexually charged. Indeed. It costs 600 pounds to make or 600,000 rather. But they the club said they're going to make it back. They have disconnected the gas boilers.

And what it is weird though, is that we are also in a unseasonably warm here anywhere, which is anyway, which actually Glasgow, your little club there, SWG three, you're here of the week for making your people sweat. All right, it's time. Now, a few years ago, a close friend of mine told me about this sleep paralysis creature she'd seen before. This was way before either one of us knew about the hat man phenomenon. Now, we talked about the hat man phenomenon before. A lot of times people see these in a half waking state. And there are some conjectures. The reason why we see these things like a hat man,

it is because it is the brain anthropomorphizing shadows, right? So we can figure it out. But yes, because we make, we see people whenever we want to see, whenever we want to see something, we try to see people, right? We were in the, in Edinburgh, we did some cemetery tour, and there's this like one poet had a weird stain in the back of his tomb. So it does look like a screaming face. But, you know, again, we want to see faces, but that's kind of why people see Jesus all the time in like a cat's butthole or a cracker. Yeah, I'm always looking in there. Every time I see a cat's butthole, I'm like, Jesus.

Now, she told me that she saw her, my friend, when she saw it during her sleep paralysis, she saw a slender tall figure with a white blank face who wore a black suit with a red lapel. That's very scary. Very, very spooky, right? I slept in her house all the time, like five weeks a week, and somehow managed to not freak myself out. My imagination is very active, and I'm typically, and I'm typically a really paranoid person when it comes to stuff like that, which is kind of fucked up considering how much disturbing media I constantly consume. Fantastic. Now, four months after her story, I was staying in her house and we were leaving for the beach in the morning. We had to go to sleep early. I was tossing and turning all night.

I felt this insane restless energy and anxiety. The thoughts of the hat man were creeping in for the first time. It was hard to tell if there was an entity keeping me awake and trying to get my attention, or if I was just paranoid and my brain was searching for trouble. Either way, I was wide awake. I turned to face my friend, but my eyes remained closed. I told her I couldn't sleep. She mumbled a little, I'll be okay. I responded, I'm glad I haven't seen the man yet. Heller. Never do that. Okay. My eyes fluttered open immediately after, and there he was in the corner. Mr. Buljango. Uh-oh. He was supposedly always in. He was just as my friend had described, except he had a giant, sharp toothed smile. Think Bobadook. I was screaming and crying out,

there he is. He's right there. He moved over to me in a cartoony, slinky way. Okay. He was levitating, standing directly over me. And as I was screaming so loud, mostly just no, no, no, no. Stop, stop, stop. Until he seemingly jumped into my body. It felt like a snap back to reality, but I realized I was lying face up with my back stuck in a hard arch. Oh my God. The next morning, I talked about it with my friend. She told me that she, that I said I couldn't sleep and that I was relieved. I hadn't seen the hat man rolled over and went to sleep. So it could be a dream, but it was very, very scary. It's better than a scat man. Oh yeah, because guess what? The scat man, he doesn't, in our world, he's covered in shit. Absolutely. I do have one, it's kind of longer one. Should we

wait? Should I wait for it? I have a good scary one, but I kind of like, let's wait. Let's wait, because I've won, because we're still ramping up. We got two weeks left of spooky times. Yes. We are, this week, we are doing a UK scary story update with Marcus Parks. We're going to do that for the last podcast, but we're rounding out a Halloween season with a genuinely frightening one. It hasn't even started yet. No, I know. It needs to be two months long. I know. I wish it was fucking a year long. Why do we always tour during October? Because it's our favorite month in America. It's because it's the, honestly, it's a fun time to be here. You can feel the vibrant area. People are up there. They're dancing a boat, but we're not the only ones on tour. No, we're not. Page 7

and Whisbrew are also hitting the road. They're on their release, the hashtag, but whole cut tour. We're just about cats. I don't okay. This is what I said. I love it. I love it. It's very funny. The post is really good. It is. Pick up tickets right now. They are at Austin, November 17th, Dallas, November 18th, DC, December, Philly, Brooklyn, Minneapolis, Milwaukee, Chicago, San Fran, NLA. Check it out. Go to page 7.show for all of your ticket needs. You're going to, you are going to love it. They are so fun. It's very funny. It's going to be really awesome. You get to see the other Zabrowski. The other Zabrowski. Absolutely. Tiny little Zabrowski. MJ, Holden, Jake, the whole crew will be there. And Jackie, you'll get, if you get closer, she'll go like

That's nice. Well, you're going to love the way that Holden makes, or that Henry makes fun of his sister. Oh, you like this? Oh, you're starting it off. Yeah. I'm going to love the way I portray my sister, which is incredibly accurate, right? Because I lived with her for her entire life, right? I live with her entire life. And I remember when she was even more evil and smaller and when she was super cute and little and no one fucking believed me. When I said she was torturing me, she was doing the Bill Murray thing of like, no, never believe you. She hit me with this. She hit me thing, it hurt me. She hurt me. Good. And then I couldn't get back, right? And then she'd just laugh. She'd be like, because you know what? Because it turned out she was on cocaine for her entire high school

college, her entire high school career. She got good grades. That was the thing. And then I was accused of doing drugs because I didn't do homework, but I was very good at taking tests. There you go. And it's not about just being bitter and being a brother. It's about, it's about, seems about mostly that there's a goddamn double standard with siblings in this world. All right, everyone. Thank you for listening. Hail yourselves. Magus Dalatians. I'm going to say out on the road one way. Yes, we'll see you on the road. Can't wait. Just stop. Yes, we hear that right now. We're in Manchester, London, Birmingham, the other one, which we're dipping our toe in and we'll, we'll see how it comes.
