And there's going to be a link to her band camp in the description of this episode on Patreon. And yeah, without further ado, enjoy. Obviously, I want to make contact. So we are going to go to basically the most fearful place in the United States. Sedona, Arizona. Thank you. Hello everyone, welcome to another, well the final Demi review.
Starting point is 00:02:03 Episode 4 is coming at you right now it's just me and hessa here um jock won't listen to this no one tell him this he'd probably be really mad if i shared it but he missed two flights yesterday yeah two flights oh wait can you check to make sure your audacity is recording yeah i'm on i'm plugging into my mic too okay beautiful no more of those problems mama we're finally learning how to podcast for three years the last two episodes have been very bad for yeah audio issues but yeah we're gonna get it we're gonna we're gonna do it we did that research mama um it's very funny that last episode jacques had or two episodes episodes ago, Jacques had two false starts and then ended up with the only person actually recording his audio. I'm so glad he's not here to hear that he did something correct.
Starting point is 00:02:55 Yeah. And then he won't listen to this and he'll never find out. Please no one comment or DM him that we're telling him he did something correctly. Yeah. Let's get into the episode. The last episode. Yes, the final episode. I think this is probably the worst
Starting point is 00:03:16 episode. It kind of goes out on a whimper a little bit. Yeah, because they can't really... The only possible climax that could have happened is that demi is literally abducted by aliens yes they meet an alien yeah yeah they've really they've built themselves up they've over sold this bill yeah of goods there's no way of coming through on this because it would literally be like demi has 17 hybrid children with a gray man yeah there's no way to make that happen and the this
Starting point is 00:03:47 one does have maybe my favorite moment in the whole show though a moment that the first time i saw it i was crying laughing and i totally forgot about it until um re-watching it because i think i was with you when we watched it for the first time i remember watching this episode with you okay so i love how it opens it opens with demi matthew and dallas they're all in demi's backyard sitting crisscross like little children uh with a playground what are those bowls around i know they're just surrounded by like rainbow bowls yeah completely unexplained it's not like it... It's like... Are they painting? It's like an AI trying to draw a child's birthday party. It's literally like they were in the middle of doing...
Starting point is 00:04:31 Like they were in the middle of arts and crafts school. Yeah, preschool time. Like kindergarten day. Yeah, preschool time. They were doing finger paintings. Truly. And they're there. They're just sitting in the backyard and they're kind of
Starting point is 00:04:45 talking again matthew's referred to as the skeptic i just love that he is just slotted into this role because he's incredibly dumb and he's like well i'm not sure i just don't know if what happened in catalina was actually contact because we didn't talk to them or anything yeah which it wasn't to be clear yeah but then demi and like shut up matthew shut up they're like we did that was contacted was real they kind of set it up like oh this episode we're gonna have we're gonna the haters are gonna be you know they're gonna keep sucking and we're gonna come because we're gonna meet have real contact this episode we're gonna fuck aliens and then we're gonna have a hybrid children we'll
Starting point is 00:05:26 get to it but they just don't they like it's the same exact thing that happens in every other episode it's so funny um so demi announces to them in the middle of arts and crafts day that um they are going to the quote-unquote most spiritual place in america sedona arizona where do you think the most spiritual place in america is if you guessed sedona arizona maybe for like xanax women oh i feel like it's isn't sedona like uh like retreat yeah do you know why they said that because i like looked up the statue that they're looking at of the um later in the episode guy or whatever a korean guy sorry oh my god can you can you can you here i'm gonna give you a clear cut here asian can you can you just you know spend two hours putting that up where i said chinese guy please thank you
Starting point is 00:06:26 thank you thank you um but what about him so they're at i cross-referenced first of all it does there's no way to find out who that person is i don't even think he's real i don't think that's a real guy um statue made for the shoot yeah they're they're literally at something called the sedona mago wellness center center for well-being and retreat well again it seems like another plug like yeah like when they were at catalina and there were all of these shots of demi's airbnb seems like a plug for this place yeah they were like we'll let we'll let your fat non-binary ass stay here if you name drop us a couple times yeah truly and it's like they i feel like demi is just using the show to go to this like resort that absolutely she fell
Starting point is 00:07:22 for the copy of on the website and it's like on the website it's like centered in the most spiritual place in america she's just reading the copy of the website yeah truly and then it's like oh here are some things about sedona sedona is in the middle is in arizona and there are rock formations everywhere and It's a beautiful desert. And also there are energy vortexes everywhere. It's like, oh my God. What I know about Sedona is that spiritual seekers have flocked to Sedona for decades and many believe that they have seen UFOs. Sedona contains energy vortexes in the rocks surrounding the town. New Age spiritualists believe that vortex energy attracts extraterrestrials.
Starting point is 00:08:05 New Age spiritualists believe that vortex energy attracts extraterrestrials. Well, Demi explaining what a vortex is is really funny because she's just like, it's an energy field that heightens all of your vibrations. And it's like, okay, perfect. Understood. Yep. Got it. Thank you, Demi.
Starting point is 00:08:20 Let's move on. Let's move on. We're all on the same page here. We can all move on. So they take their tour bus right into Sedona. They just plow it right into the middle of this retreat. And then they all unload like bumbling idiots out of the school bus, out of the short bus they're driving around the country. Literally like four, like three minutes into the episode, they get out and they're looking at the desert. And Dallas, as is tradition, starts to cry.
Starting point is 00:08:48 Cuties! Arizona's beautiful. I swear I'm not crying. It's literally just really sunny. You can cry if you want, Dallas. It's so sandy here. I'm not crying. I'm not crying. I'm just, it's so sunny and beautiful. She's wearing like double pigtails too. Or like double top buns.
Starting point is 00:09:08 Yeah. She's like such, literally an infant. And then my favorite thing is, okay, their outfits when they get out of this van are so offensive. Yeah, Matthew's mesh top. Because it's like, if you are going, I'm sorry, if it is the most spiritual place in America, If you are going, I'm sorry, if it is the most spiritual place in America, a gay man in a fishnet mesh shirt that he bought on ASOS sale should not be allowed there. If it is the most spiritual place you will ever go in your entire life. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:09:37 And you're dressed like a whore. Like a fashion nova. Like you're at a rave. It's like so offensive. Like you're on Fire Island at the worst rave possible getting monkey pox like you're gonna die from doing a micro bump of g like yeah truly um like you're wearing the outfit of someone who would go to fire island and do like a tiny bump of coke and then start crying because they got scared yeah yeah they're like i think it was spent and then they pass out like a cop that's the outfit they're wearing to the holiest place in
Starting point is 00:10:10 america yeah um so demi on her way there announces that she's got this theory um for uh the vortex because it heightens your vibrations um she is like well what if i get all of my stands what do you call it the levatics levatics the levatics which i wrote down it's the most retarded name for fan it's a really bad one it doesn't even it's not even a play on anything well her last her last name. But Levatics. Yeah, what does Levatics mean? No, like Levatics? What is that? What is that?
Starting point is 00:10:49 The Levataholics. Like the chromatics? We should have called them the Levataholics. Yeah. She called them junkies as a nod to her drug history. To tie in her drug history. I have no idea I'm a fan. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:11:05 If they were called junkies. Call them users. Users and amusers. Call them dead weight. Wide loads. Wide loads. Oh my God. wide loads um okay so demi shares this note with her fan base and she says it's like the funniest graphic because it's like it's like that galaxy print it looks like a um flyer for like
Starting point is 00:11:40 a festival you would get like dosed at in the middle of arizona like it's real woke shit it looks like um like an ad you would see like like one of your most annoying people you went to high school with would like post to facebook for like a dj that you've never heard of it looks like a flyer that a woman who has uh like crunchy hair and a baby uh and a hula hoop hobby would post she should like bring her baby and her giant hula hoop to this rave in the desert like that's the vibe of this post it says demi wants to share something special with you and needs your help to make contact with our friends in space she'll be meditating friday may 14th between 9 and 11 in an effort to make contact if everyone meditates as a collective it can increase the chances that
Starting point is 00:12:38 they will reach out and i just like i love like the gumshoe Demi stans, the gumshoe junkies, like pulling together as a collective to like broadcast their psychic energy into the unknown. Because it's like, imagine those people. Imagine the collective vibe of that cadre like babe if the aliens are responding it's not gonna be nicely it's not literally that's what released coronavirus you're beaming some of the most annoying psyches fucked up vibes ever experienced bpd american nb like brazilian twinks like the vibes are BPD American
Starting point is 00:13:25 Like Brazilian Twinks like Come to Brazil Come to Brazil Oh my god Absolutely Monkey Pogs yeah and fentanyl sign my um what's it called my enema thing
Starting point is 00:13:54 can you sign this asking some of the aliens to sign their enema that's it was the charlie xcx stands yeah they would ask aliens to sign their enema Yeah That's if it was The Charlie XCX stands Yeah They would ask Alias to sign Their enema For sure The Kim Petras Stands would just be like Why haven't you
Starting point is 00:14:10 Transitioned Yeah Like Um So Yeah There's an amazing Cut later
Starting point is 00:14:19 Where it shows All the Demi Stands meditating With her Yeah So There's one gay guy With no chin
Starting point is 00:14:25 amazing he's my favorite and it shows him twice like i i guess like not enough fans did it i'm like i wish that i had seen this because you know how quickly i would have made a meditation video yeah yes i mean you and i would have been front and center, mama. No, because you would have been the only normal looking ones. Yeah, truly. You would have been the only ones with chins. Yeah, no, it was intense. Truly, like, five people did it, and they just had to repeat them three times.
Starting point is 00:15:02 Well, they did it with this slam. They synced it up with this like these sound effects yeah so i kept zooming out like the brady bunch like opening it's demi this is this is like we'll just let's talk about now because it's so funny but it's demi later she's trying to like she's in is the this is basically the climax of the show yeah this is like the climax well before we get to that let's talk about let's keep going yeah because the next thing that happens is the expert comes on. They go to school. Yeah, they go to school.
Starting point is 00:15:29 They keep saying, like, we're going to school. We're going to class. And we're going to class in the desert. And Matthew, like, is skipping around and singing, I love the desert. I love the desert. I love the desert. The way I would just punch him in the back of the head if I had spent more than five minutes with him. He was on coke this episode.
Starting point is 00:15:46 Usually he's stoned, but he's coked out in this episode. No, literally. His eyes are like wild and he's like, looks like he's like about to fuck like a cactus or something. No, if Demi looked any more like a Puerto Rican toddler, he would have jumped. If she had pulled off one of her Puerto Rican toddler looks, she would have been eviscerated
Starting point is 00:16:06 just the pure horny vibes emanating from Matthew would have turned her into dust she would have not been able to handle so they go to this school in the desert yeah and the guest for this episode is Nick pope which is if you were
Starting point is 00:16:28 you were swaying about i didn't yeah i was like so mad because nick pope is like a for real alien researcher like yeah like a the real deal like he wrote this book called encounter and render rendlesham forest and it's like straight up one of the best books about like a ufo encounter and he like worked for the british department of defense he was like their alien guy and he was like swagged out and like rocks well he seemed he i had this in my notes that i was like this is the only one who doesn't seem the only one of the like personalities that they brought in who doesn't seem either incredibly traumatized like the navy guy or like a complete scammer like yeah like um the ostrich riding lady barbie barbie area or whatever her name is barbara barbie barbara barbie britney beth and i don't even remember. Brittany Barbieri. Brittany Barbieri.
Starting point is 00:17:27 My name is Brittany Barbieri and I'm a certified ufologist as well as a cryptozoologist. It's like Brittany Barbieri is a scammer on the spectrum of unidentified with Demi Lovato. Yes, it's Brittany barbieri the scammer
Starting point is 00:17:46 add to the navy guy who's the ultimate like well i think the lady who's impregnated she's even more she's scammer and no the lady who's impregnated is just the most molested person on the planet you know the entire scarring in the womb is what's interesting it looks like somebody that already had had many, many pregnancies. It was these little eight white lights that expand before me, and these four children emerge. And the first one was very frail looking, very thin skin,
Starting point is 00:18:23 gray color skin, incredibly large eyes of the pupil the size of our ocular socket so massive wow i guess she's kind of used she's her people use her to scam she's kind of yeah a scammer not of her own making which i guess puts her on the far end of trauma but this guy but nick pope is the only normal yeah seemingly reputable person on this show i used to work for the uk ministry of defense and my job there was to research and investigate the ufo phenomenon he rocks he's really cool but he has a bunch of good books some of the most disrespect from yeah they're sitting they're sitting in folding chairs as he gives them a powerpoint projection like presentation and he is basically like they're eating flaming hot cheetos out of bowls by the way the cheetos
Starting point is 00:19:27 make a triumphant return after being on the table for britney barbieri last episode a giant plastic like suburban plastic bowl of hot cheetos demi like tupperware just downing tupperware bowls full of three bags of flaming hot Cheetos. Yeah. No, they are just housing these Cheetos while Nick Pope explains aliens to them. Dallas has her blankie. Dallas is in blankie mode. Yeah. Brought a little blankie.
Starting point is 00:19:59 Yeah, no, they're in like little blankies and they're like, Matthew's clearly like took the pot to Zanny and it's just like drooling even doing coke for six hours he's like okay time to chill watch it yeah watch a nice british man give me a well-researched cited powerpoint about aliens the desert with my loser friends it's so funny funny imagining Nick Pope making a PowerPoint to show Demi Lovato and being like, I better dumb this down to fifth grade level. Well, the evidence he shows that
Starting point is 00:20:37 he talks to them about how the government was shooting a bunch of missiles into the sky off of la because they thought it was oh yeah flares uh like i they thought it was like japan during the world war something like that i i i went dallas mode i was like i don't give a shit what this guy has i was like wrap it up you're not being stupid enough for me yeah he was literally he was giving like the um alien equivalent of like the speech donald sutherland gives in jfk where he's like
Starting point is 00:21:13 the deep state is real like except it's like aliens every every connection that you've ever heard of all goes all the way to the top who do you think runs everything it goes all the way it's like oh shit and dallas is just eating 5 000 calories worth of hot cheetos wow oh my god wow that's so interesting i would love to see adam i would love to see the these three watch like hyper normalization oh my god could you imagine i would pay they would be just shazamming all the songs and like not paying attention oh my god what is this we have to find a way to black pill demi demi's gotta get black pilled i think if we show her bitter lake that might do it bitter lake would do it or i mean any like really any adam curtis type
Starting point is 00:22:03 i mean maybe not even adam Kurt just let's show her the act of killing so she's watching Indonesian war criminals reenact their death squad killings she would I feel like her head would explode yeah it'd be way too much oh my god
Starting point is 00:22:21 it'd literally be that tired joke now where it's like we give a Victorian child a Sour Patch Kid. Yeah. Showing Demi end of Evangelion. Thank you. So there you go. So they, again, though, are presented with real evidence. Or the closest thing you'll have to evidence. Yeah. They're presented with actual compelling arguments for the existence of UFOs, aliens, extraterrestrial life,
Starting point is 00:23:44 and kind of don't really they don't engage with it any differently than they do the most psychotic fringe stuff it's all it's all flattened to them yeah it's very matthew says matthew leaves the school as he's been calling and he says this should have been taught at my school he's like bag at academy i can't believe they didn't teach this at faggot academy do you follow that twitter account there's a twitter account called academy of fags and it's just like literally just like a bunch of twinks like fucking each other like putting their feet in each other's faces and sometimes they're really funny posts so it's worth a follow if anyone wants to look it up so then after do you have anything else about nick pope um no that's pretty much it after i like your tweet that was like this is
Starting point is 00:24:36 asking this is like asking blade to play a five-year-old's birthday party yeah truly it's like i i loved at the end when demi is like yeah um you know sometimes when i make contact and he's like and what do you mean by making contact yeah and she's like well you know i meditate and um you know then i you know i experience the aliens and she's like smiling her dumb little smile and nick Pope is like, you know, it's interesting because it's fine to admit when we don't know what's going on. That's the British, that's like
Starting point is 00:25:15 the genteel British version of like an American calling you fucking retarded. He roasted her. Yeah. No no we don't know quite how these sightings work truly it's okay to admit when you don't know what you're talking about i'm gonna start saying that to people it's either like a genteel british thing but if you say it in a gay voice it's like really mean it's the meanest it's fine it's fine if you can just admit you don't know you're talking you know it's fine to admit when you don't know what the fuck you're talking about just putting that up there nothing to do with you i'm just thinking
Starting point is 00:25:52 literally anything a like posh british person says like stuffy posh british person says if you say in a gay voice it's just it really exposes how utterly mean they're being. What if they invent a gay British person? What would you do? I feel like they're only allowed pedophiles. Yeah. I feel like it's only pedophiles over there. Yeah, that might be true.
Starting point is 00:26:18 If it's a gay British... Well, no, they're dandies. They're classic dandies. Yeah, they're the gay guys. I have some gay British friends. Yeah. Hello to them. well no they're dandies they're classic dandies yeah they're the gay they're the gay guys i have some gay british friends yeah hello to them um okay so then the next thing they do is they mk ultra demi um at the remote viewing with that this i loved this because it also like it as another one of these things where they're just like okay we
Starting point is 00:26:46 we have one day in sedona our budget is giving us one day in sedona because like literally i don't think they're wearing the same outfits like for like continuity or anything it i truly think it's one day that they have and well like a night it was yeah no because they they're still out there i think they have two nights one day yeah that's one day because they it's a nick pope night yeah they go to school and then the day they entail themselves the guy who did 100 oh no i was oh yeah it's the guy first the guy who did a million tabs of acid in a row in the 70s and just talks very quietly and softly now. Yes. So remote viewing started in the early 70s,
Starting point is 00:27:31 two laser physicists doing experiments with natural psychics. So I understand you guys want to learn remote viewing. Yes. Yes. It was overseen by the U.S. government, the Defense Intelligence Agency, the CIA, and they realized its value in the Cold War because the Russians had psychic spies. But like the kind of acid head that's like scary. Yeah, like a little has a little bit of a darkness.
Starting point is 00:27:58 Like he's killed people. Yeah, yeah. Do they even show his name? I don't know. It's just it has the redacted, the black redacted. You have to take me off. You have to take me out of the show. See, he sits Demi, Dallas, and Matthew down
Starting point is 00:28:14 to do an exercise in what he calls remote viewing. He literally sits them down at a table with like pieces of paper and crayons on it. So it's again, arts and crafts class for these three. And he sits them down and he's like, okay, we're going to promote viewing. This is a theory of consciousness that was overseen by the U.S. government, the Defense Intelligence Agency, CIA. the U.S. government, the Defense Intelligence Agency, CIA. Because the theory is consciousness is one and there's a universal plane,
Starting point is 00:28:49 you can tap into anyone else's consciousness if you think about it hard enough, if you project it hard enough. And so to do a little demonstration here with the dumbest three adults you could find in America, he has Dallasallas and matthew truly some of it has to be some of the most polluted consciousness to think of consciousness and like lanes on a highway these are so congested these are like i think i think dallas is like a dirt road with no traffic on it She's there on razor scooters. They're on razor scooters.
Starting point is 00:29:32 Dallas's consciousness is like an aircraft carrier with nothing on the deck. It's a grape slowly rolling down a dirt road. It's a tumbleweed. And there he tasks Dallas and Matthew uh venturing out into the desert uh while demi sits at her little desk with her crayons and markers um and her she's wearing a balenciaga top which is pretty iconic but it looks fake it looks fake she always looks ridiculous she always looks insane was the top balenciaga or was it the necklace the top it was like a white mock neck and then it said balenciaga on the on like the mock neck okay cool um and she's wearing like a hundred necklaces she's wearing a bunch of necklaces yeah and has like orange euphoria eye makeup. Yeah, it's like e-boy.
Starting point is 00:30:27 It's honestly what Hasan Piker dresses like. No offense to Hasan. Well, I'm offended. You're offended on Hasan. Offense taken. He won't hear that. You can't make fun of us Mediterranean's in that way. Sorry. Are Turkish people Mediterranean?
Starting point is 00:30:47 Yeah, it's Mediterranean. Yeahranean yeah yeah that's right um so dallas and matthew are supposed to go out and just think really hard and think about look at something and yes and kind of put that energy back out into the highway of consciousness, and Demi is supposed to pick it up, and she's being tasked with drawing what these energy fields are communicating to her. Right? Yeah. So Dallas and Matthew go and look at stuff. We as the viewer, we're not shown what it is because this
Starting point is 00:31:27 is a big reveal at the end we don't see what matthew and dallas are seeing until debbie reveals the drawing she made and she's there and she's scribbling but we do see um matthew being like i'm sending calm and then it cuts stemmy being like i'm feeling very calm right now and it's like okay these people are all just like one brain cell shared between all of them and the brain cell is sending the same signal but that's kind of the thing that's kind of the thing because it's like because they're all so stupid their lane their consciousness lane is somehow they're communicating they're communicating no literally literally they are i believe that this probably works for them i do i do too because they do all share one literally one brain cell yeah they are a
Starting point is 00:32:20 conscious group i think dallas was probably sending the signals because they also have a sibling connection. Well, and also by virtue of being. I think Matthew's occipital lobe is severed. I don't think he can send anything. He has like lobotomy brain. Gay men don't have one. Yeah. Famously.
Starting point is 00:32:37 They famously do not have that lobe, but they do have the prostate. That's the trade God gave gay men. That's the only lobe I need, mama. So, well, I believe Dallas is probably the best at this because, you know, by virtue of being the dumbest, she has the clearest kind of blank slate. Yeah. So, well, that's the funniest thing. No one, when, because Dallas is also asked like oh what are you sending to demi dallas literally said i was projecting energy and visuals which is like what
Starting point is 00:33:13 you were like she's using she's like using the word in the definition yeah you know it's like like you were told to go project energy. I was projecting projections. Literally. It's like you just see it zooms into Dallas's brain and you just see like the old iTunes visualizer. A loading screen. Yeah. Boom clap is playing. But it's also funny because Demi is then like, I'm getting visuals, I'm getting and it's kind of it's like kind of like okay well what else would you send you're not going to send violent thoughts you know like that's what i'm like the only thing you would send is like calm
Starting point is 00:33:56 serene reassuring comfort like i'm sending i'm sending a vision of my mother's death that i witnessed when i was two i you know what i would have sent what i would have sent a vision of my mother's death that I witnessed when I was two. You know what I would have sent? What? I would have sent a vision of Demi the president. To get her to go. Verity. Verity. But if Demi, in the middle of shooting, Demi walked out of the room.
Starting point is 00:34:21 And the camera just follows her for 72 hours. And she does like, she like bleaches her hair buys a ball of lava she's walking out the door she grabs a copy of catcher in the rye off the bookshelf like and then it just cuts back to me in the middle of the desert just fingers on my temple my head is just growing and your fingers like shaking you're sweating like crazy your head is just like vibe right up to the white house she presses a big red button and the whole thing and then my head my head the white house yeah then the credits roll i mean that's basically what the that's basically what the cia was trying to do yeah right i mean truly or i mean what else could you have sent
Starting point is 00:35:12 sent demi horniness i would send her horny vibes i would send her like feelings i would do i would shoot up and then send her feelings of it. Get her to relapse. Didn't you miss the warm, relaxing embrace, Demi? She's like, I'm feeling calm. I'm feeling very... I'm feeling high as fuck, man. Oh, I miss this stuff. She's like, what are you doing tonight? What are you doing tonight what are you doing tonight daddy
Starting point is 00:35:47 i want a ride because you know that guy would have said yes oh yeah you know that guy would have absolutely had sex with that yeah oh my god yeah um so demi yeah is drying She's scribbling like a little Fucked up kid in a scary movie And they're So Demi or Dallas And Matthew are at a statue Of What let me
Starting point is 00:36:18 I wrote down the name on the statue I said it earlier The statue of Han Wong I was not familiar with this man i i looked him up there is no information about him apologies to this man i do not know there's no info on him at all except um the only info on him is yeah there's a statue of him at this resort that they were staying at that's really that's it yeah i was like who is he it's such a lazy it's such a lazy tie-in to like western or it's like eastern like buddhist like yeah like mentality stuff they're just like yeah
Starting point is 00:36:57 i guess we'll just get a statue of an asian guy in there and go look at it and so yeah demi is drawing what these two idiots are seeing and then they get back quote unquote drawing quote unquote what they're seeing which is yeah i mean so either i mean likely what happens is producers just kind of gave her some hints well no it just looks terrible or she just it looks nothing like those statues in arizona like you're on this resort you're in the middle of nowhere yeah that's everything looks everything coming in but everything looks the same yeah it's it's not like there's it's just these mounds of fucking clay in the desert. Yeah. And little shrubs. Also, the statue is like the centerpiece of the resort, it looks like. So like, obviously she's seen the statue and like knows that they're probably not going
Starting point is 00:37:54 to go very far to like send her a signal. They're not allowed to leave. They're contractually obligated to stay 50 feet within her at all times. Yeah. They're wearing ankle monitors. So she draws this... A blob.
Starting point is 00:38:11 The blob. With a gray blob with orange behind it. And then some little green down at the bottom. Uh-huh. So she's clearly just like... Yeah. I mean, that could have been a car. And she gets the color of the statue wrong, too, which I feel like and she gets the color of the statue wrong too which
Starting point is 00:38:26 i feel like is the most obvious part about the statue is that it's gold you know yeah yeah yeah um but nonetheless they all soy they all freak out um they all can they all like bob their head and smile at demi like she's a toddler and they're like you did it you did it demi you're so you're psychic demi the acid head guy is like wow that's incredible he's like so like brain melted by acid that he's like genuinely like holy fuck this bitch is psychic holy shit oh. Oh my god. It's real. It's all real. It's all real. This happens to him like once a day.
Starting point is 00:39:11 He forgets about it. He's on the verge of calling the CIA four times a day to tell them it worked. Yeah, I know. They're like, okay, Todd. We ended the program, but remember? We gave you all the acid because we felt bad. He's like, no, this time I met this. I met this extraterrestrial Puerto Rican boy.
Starting point is 00:39:32 This little Puerto Rican boy. He knows the secrets, man. You know what the Puerto Ricans are like in the brewery. He's got the stuff. He's got the stuff. He's got the stuff. It's so funny. Yeah, he definitely thought Debbie was a little Puerto Rican boy.
Starting point is 00:39:49 Named Paco. Listen, you gotta listen to what this kid Paco's saying, man. You gotta listen to Paco. I met Selena today. Oh, ho. so so I was so afraid of it so then they go and they see probably one of the big the biggest pure scammers we have seen in the show so far bigger scammer than britney barbieri yeah because i feel like this is a woman who could get someone to kill themselves absolutely but she's also doing it much she's she's probably making way more money and has a way bigger audience than Brittany Barbieri because I follow this
Starting point is 00:41:45 woman's name is Elizabeth April I follow her on Instagram very excited to meet Elizabeth April I've heard wonderful things about her there are infinite amounts of interdimensional beings who are all very intrigued and very interested on planet earth humans what we're doing here I help people have interdimensional contact. I was abducted at the age of 18. That's how I learned how to connect in an appropriate way with extraterrestrials. So because I've had the amount of experiences that I've had, I'm considered an expert in this field.
Starting point is 00:42:23 Mostly my technique is through telepathy so that really means quieting the mind getting into a meditative state and really opening up the heart chakra and allowing that experience to happen and she she would not be able to wrangle an ostrich she could let alone ride one this bitch which wishes she could yeah she wishes she could be britney barbieri yeah instead of elizabeth april fake ass name also yeah that's a um on transvestigation twitter that's for some reason that's a big sign to them that you're secretly that you're a secret transgender. What?
Starting point is 00:43:08 If you have two first names as a name. To me, it's just like the name. If you were an actress in the 50s and your birth name was Irma Rosenblatt, you would change your actor name would be Elizabeth April. You know what I mean? Like it's like Grace Kelly or some shit. Yeah, exactly. But she meets up with them at night. This is their last night in the most spiritual place on earth, the Sedona desert.
Starting point is 00:43:38 She meets up with them. She tells them her story, which is that she was abducted when she was 18 at a 10-day silent meditation. And then Demi laughs in her face. Yeah, laughs in her face. She says that her mind was awakened by her very conscious abduction at age 18 which remind me of like Gwyneth Paltrow saying like no we had a conscious uncoupling yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah well she's doing the next gen of like Brittany Barbieri stuff she's a bit younger she's finding her audience online and not on this slew of like horribly shot television shows you know she's
Starting point is 00:44:23 not the expert she's not the expert she's like the influencer she's got a new internet for us is like conscious abduction she's like a cult leader like for like the one at first got to her i jumped it was like a jump scare because her eyes are so scary yeah her eyes are so psycho yeah no totally she has a really calm and collected demeanor but you know could like kill someone i have two notes in a row yeah um one says psycho the next one says psycho eyes and the next one says she's literally a psycho with psycho eyes yeah um and the next one says lmfao the pyramid okay i love the pyramid the pyramid is so like urban outfitters like retail display no there's um there's like a computer hard drive like um case that is literally
Starting point is 00:45:15 just that like i'll send you a picture of it it's just like that exact same thing and you just put like the parts of a computer that you're building inside of it and it's like so stupid oh my god it's so funny yeah so they're there they're in the desert there is this pyramid atop a like a naturally built platform that they then go and meditate at but the pyramid has like these tiktok influencer led lights attached to it and it's like on this gradient of changing color. It's this really thin, like geometric pyramid with no like walls or anything. They talk about how Sedona is full of vibrations. Again, April says, if you come with a high vibrational energy, you will meet instantaneous manifestation. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:46:01 She talks tough bill to sell mama. Yeah. Yeah. Instantaneous manifestation manifestation that is pretty wild that's a crazy that's a crazy thing to say um yeah demi laughs at her for being abducted which it's so funny it really reveals demi's cruelty because for her she believes that she's truly talking to someone who is sharing their like their lives traumatic experience i ended up getting abducted i was like literally in the middle of the woods um and of course it's a silent meditation retreat so after getting abducted it's not like i could tell anyone i wasn't allowed to speak i'm so sorry i don't mean to laugh but that's that's
Starting point is 00:46:45 really unfortunate it's funny now it's funny now wow talk about timing yeah they have jokes perfect it was perfect they said you're not gonna tell us all exactly you've done it perfectly yes so even though april goes on or elizabeth april goes on to say that she actually had a positive one. Just to be, imagine being in Demi's head. Yeah. And your immediate response here is just burst out laughing at the irony of being. She is cracking up too, of being at a silent retreat and not being able to tell anyone that you were alien abducted. Which also, by the way, if I was at a silent retreat, I would tell someone if I got abducted by aliens.
Starting point is 00:47:23 Like, fuck that. No, I know. What the the hell why wouldn't you tell no she on that silent retreat was mad was um meditating so hard that she manifested a scam career yeah truly she was scamming at that silent of the trade scamming mama she was scamming mama and then um my favorite part in probably any episode of this show occurs maybe besides i think like some of the highlights are like her singing to the singing to the ghost and seen any aliens um yeah have you seen anything like ets here or ufos star people her um you know the mermaid stuff are there mermaids on Catalina Island? Why wouldn't there be? You know, that's her brain. Demi has this, I think, electromagnetic like headband on. And Dallas and I are off on the side, literally watching Demi's brain.
Starting point is 00:48:36 That's her brain. And this episode's real. It's literally Demi's brain. Yeah, that's her brain and I'll put that clip in again I love putting that in I put it into the last episode too you should put it in the clip and then
Starting point is 00:48:55 follow it up with a beep beep the flat line beep and so like this episode's thing is suddenly it's elizabeth april is like but i wanted to kind of prepare you for the beings behind the spacecraft all right now over here we have the mantis um the mantis and then it's like airbrush painting of like a crazy alien and it's like oh that's the mantis okay we're gonna meet the mantis today it's so fucking funny i just love the idea of like
Starting point is 00:49:42 demi being confronted with this like praying mantis of this horrifying being. It's like one. It's my favorite. It's like a guy that she it's like the mantis. Yo, the mantis is here. You're at a party. You're like, did you hear the mantis is here? Oh, shit.
Starting point is 00:50:03 No, I know. I know. I just love the idea of Demi seeing that. And then she like laughs and it's like, oh, hear the mantis is here? Oh, shit. No, I know. I know. I just love the idea of Demi seeing that. And then she like laughs and is like, oh, my God, how are you? And then it just like swallows her whole. Yeah. I'll make the mantis the episode art. I'll make a picture of the episode.
Starting point is 00:50:15 It's so funny. But then, you know, it gets honestly, again, for people who ostensibly believe that extraterrestrial life exists, they are incredibly offensive with the gray man and the doll thing yeah like if they are this is like this is like blackface this is like so so offensive to the aliens if they exist april yeah it's like she's like um yeah here's like the gray man and it might as well be like a picture of like an alien smoking weed on a t-shirt like i got hyatt roswell yeah yeah it's it is a it is a racist depiction of aliens it's a stereotypical racist problematic depiction of alien of extraterrestrial life like if they exist they would be they i would be pissed yeah i would be pissed if humans were
Starting point is 00:51:12 depicting me that way yeah and then they made a little doll called gracie okay i tuned this part i tuned that part out i know it's so offensive it's like this little um it's like this little doll that has like a giant you know orb like head and it's gray and has the big eyes literally the typical alien um depictions that we've all seen this little adult like that and april whips it out and she's like this is gracie the pun being gray gray uh-huh c she calls him the gray man you get it she then she literally just like throws it at demi also misgendered she whips it actually she literally throws it at demi and demi's like oh my god i have a baby you guys never thought i could be pregnant i'm'm not, but now I have a baby. I'm like, this is like, you are, you are.
Starting point is 00:52:07 This is so psychotic. It's so psychotic. It's like, okay, now it's time to contact them. No, I know. And like in a moment in which you're supposed to be at your highest vibrational point and you're doing this like carny shit, you're like throwing a shitty little doll at her
Starting point is 00:52:24 and then you're all laughing. Like you're in the trying, you're in the pyramid. You're like throwing a shitty little doll at her And then you're all laughing You're in the pyramid You're in the pyramid Respect the pyramid Where is the self respect You are in the pyramid In the most spiritual place In America
Starting point is 00:52:39 And you're throwing little dolls At each other and laughing You're literally the disrespect is unreal this is they should have been just they should have been beamed out of existence in that moment yeah and then they literally start and then april goes we need all the lights out we need the lights out yeah and you know the producers were like um okay that might be a slight problem because we have to record this yeah yeah you can tell that the producers did not um okay that might be a slight problem because we have to record this you can tell that the producers did not know that they were gonna have to and also i think
Starting point is 00:53:11 elizabeth april was kind of mad about the camera crews being there too because later on she's like you know you could have come here and you could have done it you know for real by yourself you brought the cameras and that's i think that's really great of you and it's like yeah you can tell i think i think elizabeth loves a photo op whenever she can get one yeah i think she's probably just saying that so she can she's just saying that as part of her shtick yeah next time you gotta be real demi you gotta raw it next time baby yeah she goes next time i'll take you to the real pyramid well i was so happy when elizabeth called for the lights off because then you know you're getting the classic infrared shot of demi's stupid face yeah demi and night vision demi and infrared is one of my favorite favorite shots just like in literally no exaggeration every single episode it eventually cuts to them
Starting point is 00:54:14 pointing a laser at something in the night sky yeah i know i know this time they actually acknowledge it they're like demi it's responding to your laser it's playing with you it is literally playing with your laser it's like yeah it's probably a pilot trying to get the fuck out of the way it's a pilot signaling uh mayday mayday and morse code at you because you blinded him and it's on its way it's hurtling towards the earth's surface right now i hear i hear screaming demi i hear screaming i hear explosion in the night sky two planes just crashed fireworks matthew's like it looks like a plane explosion and everyone's like shut up matthew it's fire it's alien fireworks yeah um uh well i love when april
Starting point is 00:55:08 calls her lights out demi immediately whips out her phone with her phone flashlight on did you see that she's using her phone she's using some shitty app on her phone that gave her a bunch of malware and stole her data to like do a strobe flashlight do a strobe flashlight and then to look at stars and like Instagram through like an Instagram filter yeah bitch what so she
Starting point is 00:55:38 starts doing that Matthew at one point is like yeah is it a car it's just the same shit we've seen the whole time. They're literally looking at lasers. At one point they're like, well, is it a satellite? April's like, it's probably a satellite because there's no erratic movement.
Starting point is 00:55:56 Yeah, April is harshing their buzz so hard by being, they're like, oh my god, an alien. And she's like, no, that's a satellite. Yeah. Oh, wow wow oh my goodness let's just watch for erratic behavior because that could be a satellite is that what satellites look like yes
Starting point is 00:56:16 it's pretty consistent though oh so we think those might be satellites. Might be a satellite, yeah. Okay. She's like, are you sure? Are you sure? Yeah, that's a satellite. And then they're like, okay, well, let's meditate. They all start meditating. It cuts to the montage of all five fans.
Starting point is 00:56:39 It cuts to the amazing montage. Yeah. Where it's like, split screen, screen half screen is demi in infrared meditating and then the other half it starts as a grid of four uh junkies meditating and then there's like there's like a slam sound and then it like it duplicates to like 16 but four of them are the same again because they don't have enough people send in videos and then it just goes all the way until the one half of the screen is like 36 levotics uh-huh some of the it's like circus freak show unfortunately they're all probably very nice people but she's she's not they're not sending their best they are not sending their best. They are not sending their best. I'm sorry. I have been cheated by you since I don't know when Thank you. how does it end it ends where they kind of just i mean that's the that's the climax that is the
Starting point is 00:58:35 is the meditation scene and then they see um a bunch of like little lights in the sky and it's like so bad to photograph because like it, it's like so fake. This is the fakest alien shit that has happened the entire show. Cause like they, I mean they couldn't deliver. Yeah. At one point they are like literally filming a car on the horizon and you can
Starting point is 00:59:00 see like both headlights and Matthew's like, isn't that a car? They're like, no, because the lights are changing from white to red. And it's like, yeah like isn't that a car they're like no because the lights are changing from white to red and it's like yeah like someone like a car hitting the brakes you fucking idiots yeah no matthew no matthew kind of quietly says he's like oh well that would make sense right that kid that has to be a car or something no honey look at it. There's no road right there, babe. And it's flashing. Like, oh my gosh.
Starting point is 00:59:27 And they all ignore him. They all ignore him. They're all like, no. Shut up. Shut up, fucking. And he's like, well, I guess we made contact. I don't know what else to say. Yeah, and then there's like a final cutaway to Demi where she's like,
Starting point is 00:59:41 through all of my journey, like, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. I made contact. It's like, bitch, shut up like i'm so blah blah blah i made contact it's like bitch shut up i'm so sick of you i'm sick of demi after this i'll be honest yeah no i'm not i'm i will never ever ever be sick of them her never be sick of zur no zur ifemi. Zemi needs to Zer. Zemi needs to Zer. Okay. Zemi is Zerving. Zemi Zerving. It's Ziving. It's Ziving's aliens.
Starting point is 01:00:12 She detransitioned to she, they. Yeah. But then in like eight months, you know, she's going to be on like a manic spiral again. And she's going to be like, I'm Zer. I'm Zer now. I'm Zering. It would be so funny. It would be so funny.
Starting point is 01:00:26 gonna be like i'm zur i'm zur now i'm sorry it would be so fun the funniest turn that she would be able that she could possibly take is like being non-binary is anti-woman yeah yeah she's like it's it's internalized misogyny to be she became a turf yeah yeah or more of a nerf yeah nerf Nerf. Yeah, Nerf. Right? Non-binary, exclusionary, radical. I'm me. I'm a Nerf. I'm Nerfing.

Starting point is 01:08:52 like... Kesha is not as stupid as Demi does. She's not as stupid, exactly. Absolutely not even close. There's going to be a little bit more to work with. I don't know. I hope. Yeah, because these episodes, there's like long areas where there's not really i mean this is definitely we're ending off on the weakest episode which is why i feel like we had so many
Starting point is 01:09:10 tangents in this episode yeah but um yeah this is definitely it's also keep in mind probably like our fifth time seeing this series that like oh yeah no truly the first watch the first watch was i the first watch i was at your apartment and i almost peed on your couch when the when the mantis was shown it was literally so high it's like he was kind of it was like a character from like a blaxploitation film yeah like this is the mantis i have a clip on my phone music starts playing when the mantis comes
