The Confessionals - Cosmic Collision | Weird Wednesday Wake Up

Episode Date: August 23, 2024

In this episode, we explore the mysterious UFO crash of 1945 in New Mexico, where strange beings and advanced technology were discovered. We also dive into the latest California UFO sightings captured by multiple witnesses, raising questions about what’s really happening in our skies. As cosmic objects like asteroids threaten to collide with Earth, we discuss the looming dangers from space. Plus, we uncover the chilling legend of a rogue Bigfoot roaming the forests of Tennessee—an elusive creature with ties to the unexplained. Could all of these phenomena be connected? Tune in for a journey into the unknown.MEET TONY AT:9/4 - 9/7 - PhenomeCon: https://www.strideevents.com/events/phenomecon/2024/registerSponsors:Merkel Media Apparel: https://merkmerch.com/Merkel Media Films: https://merkelfilms.com/

Wake up, it's Wednesday, feel the morning light. The world's a bit different, something feels just right. Coffee's brewing strong and the day's brand new. Weird Wednesday, wake up, here's a song for you. From the dawn to let your spirit show. Weird Wednesday, wake up, start your day with a smile. Strum that banjo, softy, let's enjoy fun and let your heart take flight. Weird Wednesday, wake up, everything's all right.

Bring the music down, DJ. Welcome to Weird Wednesday, friends. I am Tony Merkel, and I'm accompanied by Studio Jack. Jack, say hi to the people here on the program. You are not on. There we go. Look at that studio background, friends. Get yourself back over there, Jack.

Look at that new studio background. Studio B is rocking and rolling. We're excited about that. The nice fresh YouTube plaque there on the background. bring that music off from me, buddy. Thank you very much. Welcome to the show, everybody. We have been cruising on a bruising. I have been kicking my butt and beating myself up nonstop in the last few weeks. I've been doing a lot of traveling. I got a lot more traveling to do. And it's okay because it's all for you. So last week, we didn't go live friends because I was not in town. And I thought

about doing a live on like my laptop or my phone. And I figured that would be unhealthy for my, my new phone. I talked about this in the pre-show, but I had to get a new phone because my old phone, the battery was barely lasting. So now this is the new business line that we just keep on the charger pretty much all the time. And my new phone doesn't have a case on it yet. So if I would have went live and realize how poorly it was going, I would have thrown the phone, broke it, and I would have got a new one. So we, on the side of caution and did not do a live show last week. But we are live today. And this is probably going to be a generally, generally speaking, the schedule for the school year. Because in the

mornings, I have to take my son to school. And then when I get to the studio is when I start doing the prep for the show. And so here we are at 11 a.m. Eastern Standard Time on Wednesday for still a weird Wednesday wake up. It's just not real wake-upy. But during the summertime, we'll be doing it nice and early. I'll be coming in at 3, 4 o'clock. in the morning, going live around 7 for a true weird Wednesday wake up. You guys can thank my kids for that. Merckmerch.com is what is bringing this to you today. Go ahead and get your Merckmerch right now. Always on the Hunt Bigfoot line is a hot seller. In fact, this is the most popular shirt that we have over everything, including the logo. It doesn't matter. People love the Bigfoot with the

AR and you will too. We have it in Army Green and Black. And because it's so popular, I'm considering bringing out some new designs around the similar themes but with other creatures. I'm thinking some kind of like, well, I'm not going to tell you because I know there's plenty of people out there right now watching and listening that would cop my ideas. So I'm just going to keep that to myself. Butmerch.merch.com, friends, if you would like to get yourself some gear and also support us because we are trying to move away from advertising on the main show. And in order to do that, we need to sponsor ourselves.

and restock the shelves in the warehouse withmerkmerch.com. All right, guys, listen, I had a little surprise here about 48 hours ago. I have chickens. I used to have pigs, but, well, I still have pigs, but they're just relocated into my freezer. But I have lots of chickens. I have 16 chickens right now, which, you know, for some of you watching a viewing, may not be a whole lot, to be honest with you. But I want more chickens.

and it's one of those things where once you have chickens, you're like, oh, this is actually kind of easy. So why don't I just get more? And that's what I did. I started out with 10. I got up to 20. Now I'm down to 16 because, you know, predators. But I want to get my flock up to about 20 to 25. But I also don't want to raise chickens in my house like I did the first batch because they stink. They're messy. And so I'm experimenting with a mama hen who she wanted to be a mommy. So I let her lay on the eggs for a few weeks. And 48 hours ago, she hatched her first egg. And I went out there to get the eggs. And she was so cute. I didn't think about loading pictures and stuff up for you. But just take my word for. Actually, you can go to my Instagram. I think I posted a picture of the chick in my Merck's the

name broadcast channel. So go ahead and follow me on Instagram, Tony Merkel official. joined the broadcast channel. You can see the chick in there. But I was surprised that I actually, I felt like I did something, even though I didn't do anything. Mama hen did it all. I still felt like I was like, man, I hatched an egg with a hen. And so she was out there all day with that one chick. The next day, I didn't see another chicken or little chick. So I was like, oh, maybe she's only going to hatch one. Maybe the others weren't, you know, fertilized or whatever. Is that the right word? Probably. Yeah, I think so. But, you know, my rooster doing his job for the most part. And so I go out last night and I go down to

the farm store to get some baby chick feed and some probiotics for the water for it to just try to give it a fighting chance because the turnover ratio of living and dying is pretty, well, you know, baby chicks don't usually. If you get like 10 of them, you're probably going to lose one or two at least, you know. And so doing it the way I'm doing it. I want to see if nature can take care of nature. So we'll see what happens. But I was down to the store and I was thinking, you know what? That baby chick needs some brothers and sisters, or hopefully just sisters. I prefer not to have any brothers in there.

So I picked up four more baby chicks at the farm store last night. And so I go home and I'm excited, but the sun's going down. So the birds are going to start going into the coop where I have Mama Hen and the baby chicken. And I'm just letting it see how I'm just playing it out. I'm not separating them. I'm just seeing how they do. And, you know, the first 48 hours, that baby chick did just fine with all the other chickens. Mama was taking care of it.

Great stuff. So I go out to the backyard and rush and trying to get it, get these other baby chicks into the environment before the sun goes down and the rooster and all the big chickens go in for the night to the coop. And so I go down there and mama chicken, mama hen, she's out in the run with the baby. And I was like, oh, shoot, that's cool. But like, okay. So I took one of the baby chicks that I got. and I put it down from a mom at hand. She immediately puffed up real big and she's real loud and she pecks at the baby.

I'm like, oh, shoot, mom, chill. I was trying to give her an adoptive, but it just didn't seem like it was going to work. She started pecking at it. I picked it back up. I was like, hey, that's mine now. Hey, chill out. So I pick up the baby chick because I have a ramp going out of my chicken coop. And the chicken coop is kind of steep.

So I imagine, I didn't see the baby come out, but I imagine it kind of fell out. And so it wasn't going to be all get back in. And so I picked it up, put it back in the coop. Mama ran right back in behind it. She settled down in the corner where she's been laying, the baby chick running around her, hiding underneath the wing and all that stuff. Great stuff. I go inside the coop, and I'm thinking, let me see if I can, you know, get this to work still

because I'd rather not raise these four in my house. And what I did was I took the one baby chick out and I covered the mama hen her eyes up and I just scooted it behind her underneath her. And she's looking around. She's like, something feels different, but she didn't know what it was. And so I did it with all four. and two of the four came out with the chick that she hatched. There's four black ones and a blonde one.

Like I'd say blonde. It's probably a Buff Orpington because that's what I have, some of the chickens I have. Anyways, the baby chick comes out and the mama sees the baby chick that she hatched, the Buff Orpington, the golden one with the black one. And she looked at it kind of sideways, but she let it go because they were hanging out together. And then the one that was off on the other side by herself, she pecked at it again. I was like, chill, girl, chill. But that one pecked back at the mom. And then she looked at that side. I was like, oh, you're going to put up a fight. I kind of liked that.

And so I put them back underneath her. And they all went underneath. And I stayed out there for about 45 minutes monitoring the chickens. And they all stayed underneath her. And she was just chilling being a mama hen. It looked like she adopted them all. Because that was last night. Then this morning, my wife goes out to check the babies to make sure they're still alive and all that stuff. All four babies that I introduced yesterday were still alive underneath mom, chilling, hanging out. I put water out there, the baby feed out there. Very successful so far. And then, to my surprise, we had another one hatch. And I was like, dang, I didn't think we'd have any more hatch. That's why I got four. And then it hit me, those eggs that she was laying

on were from other chickens as well. And so if the chickens laid the eggs different days, that I might have over the next week those eggs hatching. So she's been laying on five eggs. And at the end of the day, I might have about nine baby chicks out there running around. I was expecting to have five. I mean, I'm not going to complain. But hopefully she can kind of keep up and raise nine of them because I'm not. So that's the news on the homestead front.

We got some baby chicks going. Hopefully Mama hen takes care of them and does all that because, I'm running around chasing monsters in woods. I don't have time to be hanging out at the chicken coop making sure Mama Hen does her job. So that's the news on my life. Listen, guys, welcome to Weird Wednesday. We have the show today. Hopefully we have the show next week.

I should be in town next week. But just in case, just giving you heads up. If I don't show up on a Weird Wednesday, it's because I'm not in town and I'm busy. So let you guys know that. Also, Phenomicon tickets. The link if that's not in the description now, Jack will ask. added throughout the episode. But Phenomenon tickets are available. I'm going to be speaking September 3rd or September 4th at Phnomicon in Vernal, Utah. So if you guys, I will be out there

from September 4th to September 7th, though, the entire event I'll be out there, but I'll be speaking on the 4th. If you guys want, go ahead and get your tickets. I'd say if you're like within a three to five hour radius of Vernal, Utah, I don't make my way out there very often for public events. So if you've been wanting to meet me, hang out, you know, buy some merch and all that good stuff, I highly suggest you come out to Vernal, Utah, to Phenomicon. There's other great speakers. I mean, I'm like, I'm nothing compared to a lot of the speakers out there. George Knapp's going to be there.

So I'm just honored. They asked me to come. And also a little bonus thing here, if you guys want, if you're purchasing tickets, if you scroll down that page, you see all the add-ons. On Friday, they added an add-on that you can add-on to your ticket. and for I think it's $75, you can have a VIP lunch with me on Friday. So they're talking about doing a VIP lunch where you can, you buy that as an add-on to your ticket. And then that Friday, I'll be having lunch somewhere.

I don't know. They're going to tell me where. And all the people who did that as an add-on will be able to hang out with me and have lunch with me. And I'm excited about it. I'm excited about it. And so if you guys want to come hang out with me, do the lunch and all that stuff, cool. you know, if not, you can catch me right here on the airwaves or on the tubes.

Whatever you're watching me on, Rumble, YouTube, X, Facebook, Instagram. We're live on all of it right now. Now, guys, we had some action happening this past week, weekend, I think it was. I don't have the full story because it's so new. And typically speaking, I don't really comment on the news of the day so fast because the storyline is always so convoluted and mixed. But it's too juicy not to at least talk about, right? The UFO sightings in California. What was that? Like four or five days ago from now? So I was on X and somebody just, you know, I love it when people just tag my name on something.

And that's all I see. I'm like, oh, they're tagging me in something. I should go check that out. And somebody tagged me in a post on X and they were, they were just pointing out that there apparently is of UFO sightings that happened in like one night in UFO in California. And I started looking into it. And the reason why it's so convoluted is because it seems like there's different storylines, different types of UFOs that were popping up. And when I say types, I'm not talking like A-Craft versus this craft and how they look different. I'm talking like this was a cluster of UFOs that looked a similar way. And then this was a larger cluster of UFOs that looked completely different. And then there was these three over here glowing, doing this thing in the skies, zigzagging.

I mean, it was just weird. There was just a lot of weird stuff going on in the skies. And I think personally, my personal opinion, this is just my opinion. You guys don't have to agree with me. But I think what has happened is I think we're seeing a traditional quote unquote cover up happening in real time when it comes to this UFO situation. Now, the reason why I say that is, is because how do I say that? We have this whole thing where they've been talking about UFOs in our government for going on seven, eight years now. Probably closer to seven than eight.

And they want to release information, but they want to release it at their own pace, right? And I think what might be happening is they're not able to, we're now reaching the point where seven years ago, they were trying to control the narrative by getting ahead of it early. So seven years ago, they were coming out and saying, yes, UFO is a real. We have craft that were not made by human hands, all that. And it's left up to imagination and the little information they let out, but it's control so they can control that narrative. Knowing that a day is coming where they won't

be able to control that narrative, I think we might be progressing in that direction at this point. and I think you start seeing the craziness with it. You know, like they just kind of go nuts. And they don't, they get sloppy. Like we see it all the time, right? The coverups get real, real sloppy. And the more people dig. And here's the thing.

I mean, say you have, which probably is not true even remotely, but say you have a hundred people high up in the government that are privy to information and they're actively working to cover things up. And they're really smart people. Let's just say they're either all geniuses or borderline genius. They're super smart. They know what they're doing. They're doing cover-ups.

They're doing all that. The problem with that is you have millions of people who are just as engaged in the information and researching and understanding. They don't need to be geniuses. They have studied it so hard that they can find the holes and shoot right into them. And so I think that might be a situation going on here. So we have, and let me pull this up here on the screen so you all can see what I'm seeing here. We have, let me pull up the right window for myself here to see.

Okay. So I'm going to use this as an example of this post here and we're just going to float around and we're going to see what we can come up with. Now, we have these UFOs. Let's start with this one here. This one I've been seeing a lot of. And it's, I find it interesting. It shows these weird lights.

the sky, going down, going up, making weird maneuvers. And at first glance, you're like, holy crap, what is that? In fact, if I was somebody who was there in person, I'd be freaking out. Like, not freaking out, scared, but be like, yo, I can't believe I'm catching this on camera. And it's very impressive. It's a very impressive video. You see, here's another angle of it where from other people in the city, I don't know exactly where in California this is, but you have these bluish, greenish, white lights in the sky. all lined up together, making different lighting patterns. They look, if you were going to look at it and say it has a shape, it'd probably be like a disc,

but it's nighttime. You really don't know what shape it could be. So this is captured in California, okay? And everybody going crazy about it. Now, this is a, from what I understand, the same night, another cluster of UFOs that don't look anything like what we just looked at with the solid line of lights. This is a giant cluster. This looks like an invasion, which we could actually get into because it's, we might have a classical case of, not classical like this has been going on forever, but we might have a case

here where the narrative's not able to be controlled and what you're witnessing in this slide right here, because this is phenomenal. Like I don't, I personally, my simple brain doesn't know how to describe what we're looking at here. This looks like an invasion. This looks like if you were talking natural, I would say look at the missiles coming from North Korea to the coast of California, duck cover, we're about to get bombed kind of thing, right? That looks like warfare to me.

Could it be that things are spilling over from another realm? And they're losing the ability to hold on to the narrative. Now, this video that we were looking at here just a few minutes ago with these lights in the sky, keeping that in mind of what I just said about the spillover. There is an explanation that has been offered on the internet. I don't know how accurate it could possibly be. I have questions about it. Let's look at this video here, though. This is another angle of those, that stream of lights. This one looks like it's rapid firing, blinking, and it's up in the sky. People say there's two. There's one below it, but it's not. That's the street light. So, there's a street light.

So there's only one here that they're zooming in on. And so I'm just trying to show you if you're watching. If you're not watching, you're listening to this on replay. By the way, I'm going to start probably putting up the weird Wednesday replays on Fridays for the audio listeners to the podcast feed. So just so you know, moving forward, there's going to be a delay on that because time's tight for me. So I need some time to get that whole thing up for everybody.

But if you're watching or if you're listening to this, you'll have to go check out the video to see what I'm looking at. but you might have even seen this already, these videos. So that, what you're looking at right now, is very similar to what we saw in the previous video of the several different, you know, seemingly crafts making maneuvers in the sky. And then here's another look at more different types of lights in the sky. So you're talking about, and it was a wild, busy evening in California. There was just lights in the sky, different colors of lights, different types of lights, different types of lights,

different types of seemingly shapes, clusters, no clusters, solo UFOs, white solo UFO here in this video. I mean, so much going on. And this might be a situation where people are pulling video from other places in the world and saying it's California just to catch that wave of traction on the internet on X. And to say that's impossible would be silly because we live in a world where, you know, that's the way it works. people will go about it and basically make up things and lie just to catch the wave of what is hitting hard and the moment to get traction on their pages. So there could be that. But I will follow with this video here and this video here because of the fact that the way these lights were maneuvering in the sky and the way they look, there has been an explanation offered to this. So remember, this was in California. The same night,

Hawaii, the Hilton in Hawaii did a light show. And this light show looks awfully similar to what people were seeing in California. Now, this light show that are doing here at the Hilton has an explanation. It was a drone light show. What you're seeing is a cluster, a bunch of drones going up together to create this light show. And people, there's different video angles of it. And people were looking at it and they thought it was amazing. And apparently the same night that the UFO invasion was happening in California, this has happened. And there have been lots of people sharing this around the internet as an explanation as to what people were seeing in California. My question to you, let me know in the chat right now, wherever you're listening, YouTube, Rumble, Instagram,

X or Facebook, let me know in the comments right now. Do you think that this is a plausible, reasonable thought process to say that this is what people were seeing in California. Also, while you're in the comments section, venture on over to the thumbs up button and give me a like for this video. We are having a fun time. And if you're having fun with me, hit the like button. So that is the general synopsis of what I understand in the moment. There might be more information that comes out today, tomorrow, a week from now. But within the last, what, four or five days of this has happened, And this is generally what I am comfortable talking about to you because there is other narratives and other conversations happening that I just, I don't know.

So this is my interpretation of it in the moment. If you're looking at this video, it looks very similar, but it's not exact. And I will say this, do you all know how far Hawaii is from California? Hey, Jack, you've been to Hawaii. what are we looking at here as far as the distance? Bring yourself up on camera. What's the distance from Hawaii to California flight-wise? You flew from California to Hawaii.

How long did it take you? Yeah, so from L.A. to the Big Island, it was about five and a half, six hours. I don't know how many miles that is, but it's a lot. I think I didn't look it up, but I think I looked it up at some point in the past. I think Hawaii to somewhere in California, I remember seeing it being like 23 to 25,000 miles. Does that sound about right? That sounds a little excessive.

I mean, I thought thousand. I'm sorry, 23 to 2,500 miles. Thank you. This is why it's important to have producer Jack here because he catches my, like, I'm thinking one thing, but I say another. I told you guys, I don't know what I'm going to say when I start talking.

That sounds about right though, right? 2,500-ish? be, yeah, maybe even a little less. I'm not entirely sure how far, but that sounds about right. I mean, so here's the thing. So from Philly to California, when I went out there to San Francisco in 2017, I believe the plane ride was six hours, and that's about 3,000 miles. So if you're saying yours is about five hours to Hawaii from California, reasons to believe that, you know, 2,500 miles. Yep, it's 2593. They're, hey, hey, I know I play a dumb guy in the podcast, but homeboy ain't that dumb.

Let's go. Former trucker. I know how to judge my miles. Anyways, so you see these lights here at the Hilton. And I'm just saying, like, there ain't no way you're seeing these lights in California. Ain't happening. That's like saying basically, why don't you do this light show in San Francisco and expect people in Philadelphia to see it? That's not happening.

It's just, it's, it's not a reasonable thing to consider. What I have considered is the idea that possibly this isn't the only Hilton that was doing them. And I don't have any information as to whether or not the Hilton and other locations were putting up these drone lights. I think it's probably a stretch to say that they were. I think we would have already had that information. I think I would have come across it by now, but maybe a possibility.

But I think that this is a very convenient excuse, a coincidence that this light show happened in Hawaii, the same night that the UFOs popped up in California. And when you have the people going out there and sewing that information into the culture, like trying to get a rain on it, like, oh, crap, they figured it out, guys. They figured it out. Quick, find some information for me. Quick, the Hilton. Yes, the Hilton.

they'll buy that. And I think some people are buying it. But when you look at just the miles alone, it doesn't make sense. Let alone, like, if you're like, oh, but the drones can fly, the drones aren't flying there. Like, the drones that the Hilton has access to to entertain people in Hawaii do not have the capability to fly across the ocean 2,500 miles to California. It's not possible. So what are we seeing here? I don't freaking know. But it's interesting. It's interesting. So let us know what your thoughts are on the UFO invasion of California, 2024. Do you think that this is some type of controlled opposition, some sort of, you know, polluting the news feed and things like that, distracting people because of the time of year that we're in right now? Yeah, that's actually a real

possibility. I think moving closer and closer to November. we're going to have a lot of other weird things popping up on the radar. It's going to be, this is, you're absolutely right. They do do the whole flood, the consciousness with information and have people so distracted on everything that they get away with doing the things that they actually want to do. I don't know if that's this. I tend to feel it's not. I think what happened is something happened really actually happened in California and they were trying to get a hold on it. And they know that they could throw out pretty much anything as long as, they tell you something and you'll believe it. And when they start trickling out the Hilton,

I'm not sure who started first making that connection, but I wouldn't be surprised if we don't know who first made that connection. It just kind of happened. It just popped up. So yeah, I tend to think that this is probably a poor man's excuse as to trying to offer an explanation as to what happened in California. So that is the UFO invasion of California. Let us know in the chat in the comments what you think that could have been other than interesting. Very interesting. I don't know if you remember or not. The movie Battle at Los Angeles, I think it was.

Yeah. Battle of LA. Do you think they do these kind of things? Obviously, we know that in media they tend to have signals or symbols out there ahead of time to kind of get you to be prepared for these, you know. Well, that movie is based off of real events. I don't remember what year it is, but there was this whole thing. It was in the newspaper. You can, I mean, I think most people know what I'm talking about, but the Battle of Los Angeles was a real thing. And there was in the newspapers and everything. So that's what that movie's based off of, but could it go full cycle? Absolutely. Absolutely. So in me looking into this, this whole thing

with California, I stumbled across another story that I found really interesting. And some of you might have heard of this. It seems like it's been out for a while, but I don't remember coming across it. So I thought I'd share it with you guys. This is one of the more, one of the more interesting UFO stories that I've, I've heard in a while. And so this guy, Jose Padilla, Padilla, I think is Padena, maybe. I can't remember. I wrote down Padilla, but I don't think that's it. I think it's Padena. And his brother Remy in 1945 witnessed a UFO crash in New Mexico. I didn't know there was a San Antonio, New Mexico, but there is, and that's where this happened. In 1945, if you're familiar with UFO history, I always get them confused. I think I do this every time I bring this up on the show.

I think it's 1947. 1947 Roswell Crash, 1948, the book 1984 came out. Yeah, I think That's how it works. So in 1947, the Roswell crash. So this is two years before Roswell. This happened. And I can't go into my exact thought process on this because some of the information is unconfirmed. And I just feel like I need to ask permission from certain people before I say some

of the things I'm thinking. But let's just go into this story. In 1948, Jose and his brother Remy were out looking for a cow that had caffed. So from what I understand, my rookie farming, I believe mom became a mom kind of thing. And they're out there looking for the cow that had a baby. And while they're out there, this lightning storm comes through. And out of the lightning storm, this thunderstorm, a UFO appears and crashes into a radio tower, I believe, and crashes into the ground. Well, that's annoying.

Let me turn the phone on Do Not Disturb, because apparently my business line is hooked up to my computer and you all heard a phone call coming in. So, where was I? This UFO crashes out of a storm, a lightning storm into a radio tower, crashes into the ground, and Jose, and his brother run over to, actually I believe they run over to it and they observed from a distance and they see that there were three bodies in the craft. Maybe they got close enough to here because I'm not sure if they actually saw the bodies. I don't think they did see the bodies. They must have the bodies. They said three. See, this is where I don't have all the information. I'm just telling you what I discovered while I was looking at the California UFOs. So it crashes

into the tower and they hear these things squealing. They were injured and there was definite from what this guy is saying, he's an old man now and I think he's still, but he's still alive. He was nine years old in 1945 and he recalls this whole story where these things were squealing, they were dying, they were injured, they crash landed, they run home, tell dad, and they call it in and the military shows up. Now, this is on his father's property. I think, he said that his dad had 50 acres. And on his father's property this happened, the military shows up. And for six to eight days, the military were on the scene investigating, you know, this whole crash site. And so for six to eight days, they weren't able to get near it. It was all blocked off.

And he didn't say it was a strip club. But I got the sense that it was a strip club. there there was some kind of club in town on day seven that the these these officials i think he said there was about five five guys working on this site they went into this this this club and maybe it was a bar but i got the sense it was a strip club so of course you know let let it just be the stupidity of a man to to lose focus but it was great for us because we get more more of the story then. So while they were gone, Jose and his friend, I don't believe it was his brother Remy at this point because Remy was six years old at the time. So Jose and his friend go up to the crash site. Now, at this point, they had already loaded it on a trailer and they had it

covered, I believe it was some kind of like a crated thing, must have had some kind of door on it or something because they go up to it and he said he could hit his finger on it and the whole thing started spinning on the trailer. So when they had it on the trailer, boxed in, it must have been elevated. It must have been, you know, not just sitting on the ground, but the anti-gravity must have been active, I imagine, which, you know, I'm trying to run my gears while I'm hearing this story. I'm thinking to myself about Bob Lazar and the things that he talks about. If you're so honored and privileged to watch me do a remote interview now in the remote studio behind Jack right now in remote studio are pictures that Bob Lazar has sketched. So it reminds me of

this craft, though, and how he actually described the anti-gravity and how it kind of operated. Now, he said he hit it with his finger and it started spinning. And so it's on the trailer of a truck. So a tractor trailer, a flatbed, I presume. And he tells his friend to go get the cheater bar. for the truck. Now, if you don't know what a cheater bar is, basically, this is definitely a flatbed. A cheater bar is what truckers will use to help tighten down the chains that they're using to strap down something to a trailer. Like the straps, it's all ratchets, and you're pulling this lever and to tighten it down. But when you're talking about strapping down something that's thousands of thousands of pounds, there's no walls, it's just on the bed. You've got to make sure it's not

moving. So what they do is they have this long bar that they hook up, hook up to the ratchet. And it's a cheater bar. It gives them more leverage to be able to make it tighter bar. So he tells his friend to go get the cheater bar. His friend gets a cheater bar, comes up to it, and there's this part of the craft that is kind of protruding from the body. And I'm going to show you the pictures that he has for this. But before I do, I'm going to finish telling you what happened here. he gets the cheater bar wedged in between the body and this, let's just call it a handle or something that was on the craft. And he pulls on it and breaks it off. Now, he breaks, Jack, if you could bring those pictures up while I talk about this, that'd be great.

He breaks this whole thing off. And you can see here on screen, this is what he recovered. Now, this is something that he has in his possession today. He took it from the craft in 1945 and held on to. it his entire life. He's an old man now. You can see where it broke. Flip to the next slide, Jack. There's another look from another angle. And the next slide, that. So I have a couple things here. Okay. Let's take a pause and a break from the story of what we're dealing with here. This looks extremely terrestrial. Am I right or am I right? I don't think anybody watching this right

now, if you just saw that with no story, you would say that's part of a UFO. That looks. like almost around the brim, the flat part of that, the gunk on the bottom. That looks like old dried glue. That's what it looks like to me. But this man is saying that this came off a crap. Now flip back to one of the other images, Jack. So if you're looking at that, he says that he got the cheater bar, broke it off, and then kept this whole thing, right? one of the things that he says that he doesn't have because he didn't think of it at a time. Now, granted, you're nine years old. I get it. Like, you don't think of it all. So let's just keep that in perspective. But he says that in that hole where that shaft is, where that person's thumb is in the picture,

there was a bolt, some kind of bolt that held that to the craft. I presume that's where the bolt was. but he said when it popped off, this bolt didn't have any rivets. It didn't have any threads. He said that when you pick up the bolt and put it towards the craft, so like a hole in the craft, he said the bolt would expand. And that's how he assumes it would hold things, that the bolt itself was mechanical and would expand when it would get near the craft. I found that interesting.

I also find it interesting that this man, I mean, you guys can do the math. He's nine years old in 1945. How old does that make him today? Pretty darn old. But the fact that he's this old today has this story and presumably has told this story his entire life. And throughout his entire life, he had such a bizarre, especially for 1945, story of how a bolt could operate.

like I imagine it wasn't really part of the consciousness of people to talk about bolts expanding because of like it just part it wasn't part of the engineering back then to have that kind of imagination as a nine year old. I think. I don't know. Maybe I'm wrong. So I, you know, check mark in the credibility line for me. I'm like, okay, that's actually a pretty interesting detail for you to think up at nine years old in 1945. But again, the mechanic, the way you look at that, the way you look at that, those pictures, it looks very metallic. It just looks like something that came off of a shop, a machine shop machine. You know, like it just, it looks like something that broke off a machine in a machine shop. And he put it in his toolbox and took it home and said it was part of a UFO. I'm losing my voice. This is the second time it happened today. And so it's hard to kind of wrap your head around that until you start considering the interdimensional aspects of this.

because what we do know now from the whistleblowers and the last seven to eight years of government talking about this, it's very clear that not all, I don't want to say all, because there's a lot of different elements to consider, but it's very clear that our government and the whistleblowers, who I believe are allowed to speak, they're not doing it like, oh, they're rogue, shucks, we miss them. This is something that they are allowing to happen. Oh, you want to go rogue? Go ahead, buddy. The information that they're coming out with

is pointing towards an interdimensional aspect of UFOs and aliens. And so when we're talking about interdimensional aspects of these things, I believe, I think I can say this, I have information from a friend who has done some significant research that in the coming, let's just say months,

in the next six months to 12 months, will be releasing a whole line of events of research that points to the fact that certain people, a very long time ago in the early 1900s, late 1800s when they existed, were doing things and teaching governments of the world how to do summoning of certain entities. It's very cloudy and vague, but let's just leave it at that.

And I think this might be an early form of that. So in 1945, this happens. Think about the context of the story. A lightning storm, a thunderstorm rolls in. They are out there doing their thing. And all of a sudden, this appears. And out of this storm is a UFO. that seems out of control like it just shot out of something

and smacks into a radio tower and crashes. There are biological beings inside squealing and probably yelling because they're injured. Probably dead at this point in the story, I say. You know, when the military comes in, I imagine they're already dead. Where did it come from? You know, that lightning storm, that cloud of thunder,

could that have been a physical, manifestation of a situation where the government or certain people with, you know, the ability with, you know, dark magic and experimental alchemy needs summoned, is that thundercloud, something that was a physical manifestation in this realm of possibly a doorway, dare I say, portal? I had to say this episode, so I had to get it out there. Portal. Portal. Portal. Portal. Portal. portal, portal. It's a very real possibility.

In my mind, it's a very real possibility that what his story is, and he lacked the ability to have perception of in 1945, is that what he witnessed was a portal opening up and a craft shooting through.

And that thing, whatever it was, was brought here by another, from either, you know, let's just say another entity, in this realm. So it's, you know, it could be government, it could be somebody summoning it. There's a lot of possibilities there. But when it comes here, it crashes, lands, and there's physical beings inside. In other realms where things exist, we often want to think about that as a misty,

mystical, ghost-like see-through realm that everything in there is just real wispy. There are very real physical things in other realms. There are mechanics in other realms. There are beings that know how to build things in other realms. And they bring them here. If you think that's crazy, I know. It is crazy. But I have other people to back me up on this that you guys know of, not just, you know, hey, my one friend that I can't name right now. Jeremy Corbell, I've said this before, recently has come out saying that the metallic sphere, UFOs that the government has been releasing on video. This isn't Tony's interpretation.

This is fact. The military has been releasing video of what seems to be metallic spheres flying through the air that they say they don't know where they came from. They quote unquote down now. Okay. We all believe that, right? Jeremy says that he has been given information to say that those spherical metallic UFOs are a direct response to direct energy weapons that were being used on craft that were being

manned and that those spherical UFOs are unmanned drones from another dimension. They are being sent here because they still want to do their thing, but they don't want to lose any more manpower, I suppose. Maybe they're running out of meat sacks. So if that's what they're saying today, is it possible that in 1945, a very similar thing happened, a metallic thing shot through from another realm that was carrying three biological beings that then wound up dying at a crash site in San Antonio, New Mexico. The answer is yes. The answer is yes. I found that story extremely fascinating, and I hope you did too.

I don't know if I shared it very well, but look it up for yourself. I think his name was Jose Padena. I think it was Padena. But just look it up. 1945, UFO crash, San Antonio, New Mexico. You'll find it. Surprise I haven't seen it before today.

But I found it extremely interesting, and it kind of just lines up with what we have seen and heard in previous years. There are very physical, metallic-like crafts coming from other realms into our realm.

And I think that there's a very strong possibility that that's what this man witnessed in 1945 as a nine-year-old. And so it does offer an explanation as to why he has something so metallic in his hand that he held on to his entire life that he says came off this craft. Is he telling the truth? I don't know. Well, it's a freaking good story. And unlike most people who have stories, he at least has physical evidence to back it up.

Whether it's fake lies or what, I don't know. But if you're enjoying this weird Wednesday semi-wake-up, mid-morning wake-up, so we changed the show to name to that. Weird Wednesday mid-morning wake-up, Jack? That's perfect. Perfect. All right. Give me a thumbs up if you're enjoying this.

Write a comment of pure elation. Is that a word? Elation. Elated? Yes. Elation. Elated joy. Write me a comment in the comment section.

Or if you don't want to do any of that, go ahead and check. check out Merkmerch.com and get yourself some Merch because that's what this episode is brought to you by. All right. Now, speaking of things flying through the air, I want to get to some physical, quote-unquote creatures in today's episode. But before we do, I got to hit this because I found it very interesting. And we have two different stories that I think are similar in nature enough to actually bring it up to your awareness. So the first one here is that NASA, now everybody has different opinions of NASA,

who NASA is, what they're doing. Listen, I don't think NASA is up to all good things. But I think NASA is a very real entity doing very real research, but I think that they do have in certain closets at NASA headquarters people working on nefarious things. There's nefarious means happening. I know space is fake and the earth is flat, bro. I get it. But NASA says, I hear Jack laughing over there, threw me off. NASA came out and said that there is a mysterious space object rushing through space. And it's going at a million miles per hour. And it's 27,3006.

times larger than planet Earth. Like, I was sitting there, when I read that, I was like trying to fathom, like, what does that even look like, right? Like, so I started thinking, okay, you take an ant and trying to resemble, like, okay, that ant resembles a little tiny brown ant, you know, one of those little tiny ones. And that resembles planet Earth. And then you take a giant beach ball and you smash that ant with the giant beach ball. Is that close to the 27,306 times larger than planet Earth?

I mean, we're talking about something absolutely huge and it's so huge that they say that it's moving so fast and it's so huge that they believe it could actually break free from the Milky Way. I was like, what? That's crazy. So I found that interesting. And they said it's 400 light years away from planet Earth. So it's very far. If you're wondering what a light year equals, it equals six trillion miles. So one light year is six trillion miles.

And then times that by four, that doesn't even fit on the calculator. I can imagine there's some people saying, so if it's that far away, how could they possibly know it even exists? And I agree. I don't know. I'm not that smart to figure that out. So I'll just leave it at that. I found it interesting. Now, that paralleled another story that got my brain thinking that I've had somebody bring out to me.

And it was just in passing a few weeks ago. And I was like, huh, that's kind of similar in a sense. And there is an asteroid that is called Apophis, Apophis, I think it's called Apophis, which is named after a Greek god of destruction. A Greek god of destruction. Why can't they, why do they have to name such scary things that are already scary? Why do they got to name it scary? Like, why can't they just say fluffy unicorn?

Like, why can't they give it something that's just cute and cuddly that is not threatening, that doesn't get people all freaked out? Like, if they say they're asteroid, apophis, apophis, and people, People are like, oh, what's that mean? God of destruction. What are you trying to tell me? Because this isn't just an asteroid flying through space like the previous one that they don't even know what it is. They think it's like a star or something like that. The star, it wasn't big enough, but it wasn't small enough. I don't know. It wasn't big enough to be like a full blown star to have its own nuclear system. But it wasn't small enough to, I don't know, be a planet. I don't know. It was above my, I gave you what I could understand. But this one, it's called the God of Destruction. And in 2029, it's going to come dangerously close to planet Earth.

Going back to what Jack was talking about earlier with L.A. And it could it be that they were trying to tell you before it happens kind of thing, is this one of those situations? In 2029, are we going to have an asteroid that's going to crash into planet Earth? because in this article that I was reading about it, it had some very concerning things that I want to bring to your attention. It says Apophis, Apophis, let's just go with Apophis, named after the ancient Egyptian god of chaos

is a remnant from an early solar system formed around 4.6 billion years ago. I really, really wish we could figure out how they figure out some of these dates. The sizable space rock influenced by the gravitation, forces of giant planets like Jupiter has a diameter of approximately 1,100 feet. So that's approaching a quarter mile wide. Let's just say that. Okay. It's pretty big.

Like if it hits there, it's a problem. On April 13th, 2029, an Erie Friday, the 13th, an Erie Friday the 13th, Apophis will come within 20,000 miles of Earth, a distance close. closer than any geostationary satellite. I don't know what a geostationary satellite is, but it doesn't sound good. Okay? Like, it doesn't sound good. 20,000 feet?

Are you kidding me? Listen, I've been on planes a lot in the last three weeks. Okay? And what's a really cool feature, actually, is Delta has now have these TV screens on every seat, which is really cool. Like, I never had that before. I live in the back of the plane where the poor people are, right? And so, like, I'm like, oh, I got this screen now.

And on the screen, you can see the plane going from where you're at to the destination you're going. You can see the progress and tells you the time that you've been on a plane and how much time you have left. And it also tells you things like elevation. Okay. So I'm on a plane flying at 35,000 feet. Me. I'm 35,000 feet up in the air. And this thing is going to come in within 20,000 feet of Earth.

Are you kidding me? that's like freaking close bro I think it's 20,000 miles you're right it's 20,000 miles forget everything I just said guys next category next topic but it does but geostationary satellites fly at like 22,000

or yeah 22,000 feet you're ruining my my talk okay no more all right let me just spew stuff and let the fact checkers fact me fact check me I don't need you doing it on the live show okay

you messed up my groove. It was a good story until he ruined it. All right, next up. Anyways, there's going to be a thing coming close to the earth and is going to possibly kill us all. Look it up and have some fun. All right, there are we at. All right, dinosaurs.

Let's talk about dinosaurs. Okay? Now, I found this interesting as well because I think we have a cover up here that I don't think anybody's even talking about. And what we're going to talk about right here on Weird Wednesday, Midday, wake up. Hit the like button if you like my fumble on the last segment.

Let's move into the next one. In North Wales, or was it South Wales? I think it was in South Wales. There was a little girl. Yeah, South Wales. She's 10 years old and she's on vacation with her family. And they go out for a walk on vacation in South Wales. And I know they're relatively local because in the article,

the girl calls her mom, mum. So she's not like, you know, visiting. from America to the UK. They're in South Wales on vacation, and they decide they're going to go out for a walk. And in the article, they say, it doesn't have a quote, but they say in the article that they went out looking for fossils. Right there, I think the stage is being set.

Because while they're out there looking for fossils, they find these holes in the ground. And they thought that these holes looked a lot like dinosaur footprints. And mom is so beside herself. She takes pictures of the holes. And she's excited that her daughter was part of this discovery. She sends the pictures to a museum.

I don't have the museum name in front of me, but it was a local museum in the UK. Okay? So I don't know what the name of it is, but it was in the UK. And the story from there changes not from their perspective about what the officials are telling us

this is. And the official narrative is that this mom and the daughter discovered dinosaur footprints while on a walk looking for fossils that have never been found before. And they're saying that these dinosaur footprints

are 29 inches in length. Now, 29 inches. I just so happened to have a tape measure here, you know, just not like I planted or anything. But since I have this tape measure here, just see what 29 inches is and 29, 29 and a half inches is that long. Okay. It's pretty big. Not the biggest in the world, but it's pretty big. You know, like when you're

thinking about a dinosaur footprint, my thought is that like it's, you know, you can fit like an entire family standing inside of it, you know, but this, eh, not bad, you know. Just to give a perspective. Shaquille O'Neal, his footprint is, or his shoe size is that, 22 inches long. So Shaquille O'Neal, 22 inch, now he's got big old feet even for a seven-footer. But still, 22-sized shoe and this footprint that they discovered, or footprints, was 29.5 inches, okay? So, so glad I had just randomly a tape measure here on the table. They find this footprint, but they find five of them. Okay. And that's the problem. So when you send a picture of a hole, that was funny. And I didn't even mean to do it. I almost said when you send a picture of an a hole, which would be even funnier. But I was like, that wouldn't make sense of a hole. And then I remember what I realized what I said. Back on topic, Tony. When you have a picture of a hole in the.

ground, that's one thing. You can say, oh, well, that's just, you know, this, that, and the other, people were out there mining, this, that, and the other. When you have a picture of five holes in the ground, and they are literal left foot, right foot walking, it's kind of hard to say it's anything other than what it is. The stride length of these holes, they don't give the stride length in this article. They just say it was consistent distance between them. So this was a consistent distance of stride length. They say, yes, it is dinosaurs. You discovered ancient dinosaur footprints.

The problem with that is I really don't believe that mum and 10-year-old daughter were climbing through some kind of unknown territory in South Wales to discover these five holes in the ground. They were out there looking for fossils through what apparently is the Amazon jungle in the UK and they just stumbled across these five holes in the ground that are footprints that have been confirmed to be footprints and they're just ancient holes in the ground that have been there forever and you two mom and 10 year old daughter accidentally stumbled across it for the first time in history. I don't think that's what's going on here.

Now, this is where it gets juicy. I just like a month ago, I couldn't find it. I wish I could found it. I looked for it. I couldn't find it. But like a month ago, on X, where all the accurate and great information is, people were posting these weird weathered patterns and posting satellite images of like the temperatures of the water and everything. And they were saying there was, it seemed like something was literally in the water coming up from like South, like the South, like Antarctica area, up into the Atlantic ocean towards the UK. This was like a month ago. And, They were like tracking its progress kind of thing.

Now listen, it was when I saw the pictures of it, I was like, my lord, that is so large, it can't be what you're suggesting it is. But maybe it was. Maybe those footprints that were found in the ground by a mother and her 10-year-old on vacation looking for fossils were not ancient footprints, but fresh footprints of an unknown creature that they're trying to. to keep wraps on. And they're like, oh, yes, you found ancient footprints from a dinosaur. And let me give you this long name of what this dinosaur is because then you'll believe me

because Tony can't pronounce it. So I think what we're dealing with is possibly a creature that is absolutely real in existence today leaving footprints. And because mom discovered it and started posting it online, they had to say, oh, oh, those were, those were, those were, those were, uh, ancient footprints that you discover. Good job, kid. You should be a paleontologist one day. Uh, I just don't think that's the case. And I've been looking for the pictures and I can't find them.

If I had cool pictures like that, they'd be everywhere. Now, granted, I have a platform. So if I posted those pictures, people would share them. But I can't find the pictures anywhere. Almost like they don't. exist anymore, but they existed enough to write articles about it. So it does something's fishy about it to me. And so my scientific, very educated, well-thought-out, researched opinion is there is a monster on the loose and they're covering it up. So look forward to that and more

monster footprints popping up in South Wales. If you're in South Wales and you have a story about a monster dinosaur creature that probably popped in from another realm and popped back out, give me a shout. You know, I'd like to talk to you

about what you saw and what is going on in South Wales. Nobody talks about the UK enough. You know, like we always talk about monsters here in the United States and things popping out of portals,

dog man coming in and out of dimension walking through people's living rooms. UK, they don't talk about the stuff. Like, come on, guys. You got to have something weird. Well, we have large black cats. Everybody's got large black cats. What else he got?

Giant monsters that leave 29-inch footprints. Now we're talking. Now we're talking. So give me a shout if you know anything about this beyond my scientific, well-thought-out, researched opinion. If you like this show, go ahead and give me a thumbs up. If you're watching this, thumbs up right now on the video. It's the least you could do for me. If you really want to go the extra mile, leave a comment of pure joy so that we can get in the Algo

more. And last but not least, this episode is brought to you by Merkmerch.com. Go ahead and get your merchmerch right now at Merkmerch.com. We have the Always on the Hunt Bigfoot Design, Karen and A.R. That is the top seller shirt. Not this color, though. The military green is the top selling shirt. This design, military green. We're restocking the shelves. Literally, I got an email yesterday. They're putting in production a whole new batch because you all be buying it. And I appreciate it. I thank you because we are trying to move away from advertising on the show. I don't want to interrupt my stories on the show with advertisements. In order to do that, we need to replace that income so that Jack can continue eating food.

So we're trying to do that through sponsoring ourselves with things that you guys actually want at Merckmerch.com. New designs coming very, very soon. All right. I brought us back down to Earth. We were running around the skies, UFOs, asteroids, coming in within two feet of the Earth. Like, we were there. We brought it back down to Earth talking about completely normal things, ancient dinosaurs, more than likely monsters coming out of realms leaving 29-inch footprints in the UK.

South Wales email me if you got a story. Let's continue roaming Earth with monsters. I got two stories for you that I heard about recently that I'm going to just tell it from how I remember it. And I found it completely fascinating. One, because it's in my home state, Tennessee, both of them. So anytime I get a good story out of Tennessee, I dig it. And two, because who doesn't like a good Bigfoot story or Nephilim story? Right?

Right. So let's start off with, let's start off with the Bigfoot story. This Bigfoot story is brought to you by cryptid. Gosh darn it. I don't have it here on my phone. Give me one side. I want to get proper shoutouts here. I sent it to Jack and text message. Let me pull that up. Word vomit on the microphone. So it's not dead air. Testing, testing, testing. Rogue. There we go. So this story, if you want to hear how the story was told to me for me to tell to you, there's a YouTube video.

Rogue Sasquatch killed in Tennessee by Dixie Cripted. Huge channel. Shout out to Dixie Crypted. And Dixie Cripted, shout out to me. Shout me. Shout me. Shout me. If you want to talk. I would love to have you on the show. So this story is a rogue Bigfoot in Tennessee. And the legend has it. The story goes that, let's just say a hundred years ago. A long time ago. This was a long time ago. Probably not that long. I think let's just say 1950s to 60s, okay? there was a family here in Tennessee. And if you just think back to, like, if you're not from Tennessee, you don't have the perspective as much. But just think of it this way. Tennessee down south, 50 years ago, let's just say 70 years ago, it was like very rural.

You know, like outside of Knoxville, Nashville, Nashville, Memphis, you're talking like not a lot of people. And so there was a family that lived very rural farm. and the grandfather that owned the farm had his nephew. I might have that wrong. Okay? The relationships here kind of foggy in my brain, but I'm telling you the story. So just stay with me.

His nephew comes over to the house and he's injured at work. Okay? He had an injured back. And so this man is letting his relative, let's keep it that way, man relative. This man is letting his relatives stay at the house. to mend up. And this guy is, he's a strong man. He's a prideful man. He wants to show his worth. And as much as he tries to work around the farm, the house, granddad is saying, no, no, no, you just relax. Just relax.

Rest up. Very hard for this man to do. If you take it in perspective, I mean, back then, if you're living that kind of lifestyle out in the middle of nowhere with not the technology that we have today, you have to be a worker. It's just in your nature. You work. Like, that's just what you do. And so he's on the mend. And over time, he is not able to really get back to work 100%, but he's able to help around the farm. And so it's like, okay, man, listen, if you really want to help, you know, carry this piece of paper over here, you know, just take it easy. And so while he's out in the farm several days, weeks, he starts noticing these creatures that are coming up to the property line. And he, goes inside over dinner and he starts discussing it with the family. And as far as I can remember

on the story, it didn't seem like it was something that was like, oh, man, what are you talking about? I've never seen that. It's probably something that was commonplace, understood that these things are out there. Don't really know what they are, but we just leave them alone. They're pretty peaceful, chill. Let them be. We let them be. They're pretty big, so we don't want to really tick them off. So he's out on the farm doing some kind of work one day. And he sees this one, female Sasquatch right off the property line.

He can see this whole clan of them. And it's making noises. Turns out it's giving birth to a baby. And it pushes this baby out. And it's, there's all this commotion, several Sasquatch. And the mother who pushes his baby out

is still like kind of like making noises like there's another one coming. turns out it pushed out the afterbirth. Ew. Gross. Imagine how much afterbirth is coming out of a Sasquatch. Like anybody who's been in the room when a woman gives birth, it ain't the prettiest thing, you know?

The afterbirth, they can live without it. But imagine the afterbirth out of a Sasquatch. Holy moly. We're talking about probably like a big old load, you know? Wow. lots of afterbirth. And then it gets up and they're doing their thing, right?

It's just gay birth, I don't know. They're probably grunting and making a big deal out of this new, this new Bigfoot. And all of a sudden, there's this loud yell and this male Sasquatch comes on the scene and is like extremely aggressive and starts killing children's Sasquatch, like little juveniles.

Sasquatch. And if I remember correctly, he might even killed the baby that was just born. It just went berserk and started beating up the big ones and killing all of them. And this guy is standing there seeing this. And up to this point, I guess he had built some kind of relationship with these things. And it was a peaceful thing. And so he's like seeing this and he's kind of freaking out. And so this is where the story is like, hmm, I wish I could talk to somebody who has more information on this, even outside the, even outside of me. Okay. Like, like, I get it. Like, I'm just retelling it from my memory. But even the Dixie cryptids or Cryptid Dixie channel, they're just telling a story that I think was emailed to them.

I would love to talk to somebody that has more information about this next part. Now, apparently, the man who I'm talking about that saw this whole thing happen, who had the injured back, but he's on the men now and he's kind of working, but just kind of taking it easy. apparently he was known to be a very strong man, very strong man. And so when I think about taking down a big foot, which I think about often, very often, I'm like, okay, I'm going to 10-millimeter kind of thing, you know, like I prefer a 50 cow, but really can't carry that, not that strong, you know, kind of pathetic and scrawny and weak. And I'm like, okay, 10-millimeter on the hip kind of thing, pulled that bad boy out,

aim hopefully hit the head. You know, I think about all that stuff, you know, going ramble on it. And you would expect him to go back to the house, the shed,

the garage, the barn, and get a 12 gauge with double-op buck, you know, and just blows his head off. No, he gets some kind of,

I think, hand tool. Like, it wasn't like a weapon. And he goes, and the story says that he went and killed this Bigfoot.

Like, the rogue one. that's beating up Sasquatch and killing the Sasquatch. I know, it sounds crazy, but I'm just telling you the story I heard. I thought it was highly interesting. And often with these kind of stories, there are mistellings of stories,

but they come from this true account. Maybe there was a family that had a rogue Bigfoot, and it just evolved over time. We hear about Rogue Bigfoot. That's why I don't like Bigfoot. But, so it's dinner time, and the old man that owns the property is inside waiting for him

this guy to come in and eat dinner and he doesn't come. And it wasn't unfamiliar that he would be late for dinner. He's out there working. I told you he's a grinder. He hustles. And so it wouldn't be unfamiliar to them that he would be late for dinner.

And it gets to the point where he's like, there's something wrong here. Let me go out there because maybe he slipped and fell, hurt himself again and he's out there waiting for us to come find him. He goes out there, and and he finds this man propped up against a wall somewhere or maybe a tree, and he's covered in blood, at least is what my mind's eye says, and he's exhausted. And he's like, what happened? He's like,

I'll tell you tomorrow. I can't talk about it right now. I just need it. I need help getting inside. I need to rest. So he helps him, cleans him up inside. The next day, he goes to the younger man and goes, what happened yesterday? What's going on? He saw all this blood on him and he thought at first it was going to be his blood. He thought he's going to be dying. Got attacked by a cougar because cougars are here in Tennessee or a bear, something, right? And he says, I need to show you what happened. And he walks him out to this tree line and he shows him this kill sight of all these dead Sasquatch. And he tells him the story, I just told you, kind of, probably not exactly. And he shows him this this kill site. And he's like, why did you kill them all?

Like, what happened? That's how strong this guy was. That his thought was like, why would you kill all the Sasquatch? I wish I had that kind of reputation, you know? Like, geez. So he's like, I didn't kill them. This giant rogue male right here that's dead. I had to kill him because he came in killing all these other Bigfoot.

The Rogue Bigfoot of Tennessee, what a legendary story that is. I don't know how true it is. but my goodness, wow. Which brings me to another story here, talking about men in Tennessee with crazy strength. If we're going to take this story that I just shared with you and the fact that this guy took, let's just say, I don't know, a hand trough and killed a Bigfoot

because he was so stinking strong, is there any kind of groundwork laid in this area for exceptionally strong human beings? The answer is yes. But first, this is brought to you by Merckmerch.com. Now, this story here is a legend of the strongest man to ever live in Tennessee. His name was Big Joe. Okay?

I think the last name was Copeland. Okay? Not Kenneth Copeland, Joe Copeland. This guy was back in, let's just say 100 years ago again. I told you I'm telling these stuff from memory. but he he buys a piece of property from what I believe was his wife's family, his wife's father here in Tennessee, and they build a homestead on it. And throughout the story, there were little pieces of information that led me to believe that Joe was somebody who had Native American bloodline in him,

which I think is a very important piece of information to this story. story. I'll tell you why at the end of it. Joe was known as being a very strong, exceptionally strong human being or being. And not only was he super strong, but for a hundred years ago, he was super tall. Joe was about 73, I think they say. It was like 7.3 or 7.4. I think it was 7.3. 7 foot 3 inches tall. And absolutely, huge individual with absolutely phenomenal strength. And Joe isn't the only one. Joe marries this woman, buys the land off her father,

which I tend to think was a Native American himself. I think that there's a lot of Native American bloodline in this story. And his offspring were very, very large. Now, that makes sense, right? I mean, if I'm 7.3, it stands to reason that my son is going to be at least a little close to my height. He's not going to be four feet tall. Joe's smallest son was six feet five inches and weighed 360 pounds. This is a clan of absolutely giant human beings. And not only was Joe exceptionally strong and absolutely tall, he was known for being not only a great fighter,

but he really enjoyed fighting. So this is like the early stages of the UFC. Like Joe's out there just slaying dudes. And people would travel from all over the country hearing of this legendary Joe and taking a crack at him. I guess that's what they did. They went, they went around looking for people to fight. They were bored, you know, they got tired of kicking rocks. So they started punching each other in their face. And everybody would just get pummeled by Joe. And reason to understand. I mean, like, he's 7-3 and is absolutely strong. To give you an idea of how strong Joe is, legend has it, that he could walk over to his fence line that he would have his pigs in. Okay, so as I mentioned earlier, I used to

formerly own pigs, do not anymore. Well, I still technically own them, but, you know, relocated them. The pigs that I had were American guinea hogs. The American guinea hogs that I had typically get to be about 200 pounds-ish, maybe 250. Mine that I had, and were a little larger because I fed them real good. And they were probably about 280 to 300. They were really large. In fact, as somebody who doesn't have a ton of experience raising pigs my entire life, I was told by the guy who helped me relocate them that they were exceptionally large pigs.

He's like, these for American Guineas are huge. So let's just say my American guineas, who are traditionally a smaller breed of pig, get to be about 250. Let's just say 250. That's pretty heavy. That's pretty heavy. I think Joe probably had larger pigs. Okay. Practically speaking, he probably wanted the biggest he could because he had a big family that were literally big people and needed to feed them all. So the legend is that he could walk over to the paddock where he had his pigs. Stand next to the fence where the pigs were on the other side. Bend over and pick up a pig, a live pig, not dead. yet, a live pig squealing and squirming, pick it up, put it over its shoulders or his shoulders and carry, well, maybe he isn't it. But carry the pig away to be processed. So that's how strong

this character Joe was. Now, Joe had a challenger come down from, let's just say Virginia or West Virginia, and he was going to come and take Joe out. He was like, I'm going to knock this Joe guy down a peg. Remember, it's not internet, it's not TV. You just hear about the legend of Joe, and you're probably thinking, you can't be that big. Like, come on. Like, I'm a pretty big guy.

This guy travels from, let's just say, West Virginia to Tennessee. I don't know where in Tennessee, but let's just say it's East Tennessee, right where I'm at. So this guy traveled hundreds of miles. He takes one look at Joe and turns around and goes back home. He decided, I don't want to try this. This is a little bit more than I thought it would be. So he took time out of his schedule to travel hundreds of miles on horse to not fight Joe. That's how big and strong Joe was.

And then there's another man in Kentucky. And he was a legendary figure in his own right. He was known to be a fantastic fighter. He beat the crap out of anybody who challenged him. And he was exceptionally strong. And he thought, you know what? I keep hearing about this Joe guy. Like, we need to find out who is the strongest man in the South.

Like, we need to figure this out, but I'm pretty sure I can take him. So he travels down to Tennessee. He arrives at the Joe Copeland homestead, and he takes one look at Joe, and he's not deterred. He's like, I'm going to fight this guy. And so Joe, being a guy who is absolutely huge, absolutely strong, and Joy's fighting, but doesn't seem to be like chaotic and crazy, says, hey, come on in. And he invites this stranger into his home that came to fight him from a foreign land and offered him dinner. They made up this big feast and everybody ate well. I mean, you got to think, like,

this is a huge family. Everybody eats a lot. In fact, one of the stories with Joe is that he was known for going out and hunting for his family and he would bring back dozens of black bear to feed his family. I mean, we're talking about a big family, right? And so he's just bringing the black bear. He probably killed him with his hands. You know, this story is crazy. So he feeds the family and he feeds this guy, this magnificent feast. And then afterwards, they're talking and they have some good food. Joe invites this guy down into the cellar to have a drink of whiskey. So he pours the guy a glass of whiskey. So he pours the guy a glass of whiskey and hands him the cup and the guy drinks it and, you know, he's very grateful. And he hands

the cup back to Joe and totally assuming that Joe would pour himself a glass, you know, like, we broke bread, let's have some drinks, and then we'll get it on, you know. The right way to do things. Joe puts the cup down on the table and picks up a 30 gallon barrel of whiskey that he had there, lifts it up over his head and pours the whiskey into his mouth. And that's how he took his drink. At that site, this man said, up, Joe is really nice meeting you. I think it's my time to go. Let me sober up a little bit. I'll hit the road. So he didn't even make it to the fight with this guy. Like, he saw him lift 30 gallon drum over his head, pour himself a drink. That was enough for him. He's like, listen, I might be drunk, but I'm not that drunk.

I'm out, you know? And what I find interesting about this is that Joe's height and strength and the legends of Native American talking about how there were giants in the land here. And one of the stories we hear is that the giants would run so fast, so swiftly, and they were so strong that they could run through a field of buffalo and just scoop a buffalo up with one arm and carry it away under one arm. Now, I don't think Joe was that large. But if he's watered down remnant of what was once here, some kind of Nephilim bloodline, could Joe have come from that?

Like I said, in the story, it made me believe that the way it was told to me and the way I heard it that Joe probably had Native American blood in them. So were the Native Americans giants? Like we hear about that story of the giant picking up the buffalo and we think, oh, giant. And then there's a separate group called the Native Americans. But there's another story that comes from Oklahoma in 19, or not 19, 1855. It was the war of 1855. And the legend has it that this whole thing was circled around a clan of Bigfoot that were rogue. They were coming into tribes and taking the women, taking the children, and eating them,

killing them and eating them. And so these tribes had enough and they got together and they're just like, listen, I'm going to go kill these things. Right. And there was one general, Joseph LaFriends, I think. Joseph LaFriends. Maybe it's the same Joe. Probably not, though. Because this guy died.

but the leader of the group going out, the whole story, I won't tell you the whole story, but the whole story is basically they go out, they track down these three, four, five, Bigfoot, and they have at it. And it was like this day, daytime war. Like, it was a war one day, boom, they clashed, killed the Bigfoot, but a lot of guys died too. But the part of the story that I want to bring to your attention is how they describe some of the Native American tribes that they brought with them. There was a particular tribe.

He didn't say it was a person or random people. They identified it as a group of people, a tribe, one singular tribe that they brought with that were all seven foot plus. These were really large people. And maybe they were hybrid people from dealings with the giants. I don't know. But when I hear the legend of Joe and how strong it was, it reminds me of 1855 war. the Bigfoot War of 1855, and how they had those tall giant tribes. And so I think there's, again, when you have these ancient stories that are passed down through generations,

you get different information, it gets watered down, some things get embellished. But I do think that there often is a core root of these stories that we can pull from. Excuse me, I almost coughed there. Almost choked on my own spit. And so when you have these situations and you have different stories popping up that have very similar cores of Native American tribe that are exceptionally tall and strong warriors. And you have Joe who probably had Native American blood in him. His wife probably was Native American or at least Native American blood. And he was exceptionally tall and strong.

You can start kind of start seeing where the lines get merged. a little bit. And then when you go back to this other old story I shared with you where the guy had the rogue bigfoot, we've heard a rogue bigfoot, rogue bigfoot before. We've heard stories of people. I've even heard a story where a rogue bigfoot tackled a man and he survived because he just was fast enough to pull out probably like a 10 millimeter or something, something kind of large caliber that he had on him, probably to kill bear. This thing's on top of him and he points and blows its face off point blank right in front of him. Never been on the show. I forget where I heard it. Probably Sasquatch Chronicles. Shout out to Wes Ghermer. This old, old story I heard a long time ago.

So if it's on his show, it's probably a very old, very old episode. Because we know Wes is a very old man. But you hear about that story of these rogue Bigfoot that I share with you. And the character in that story that killed this Bigfoot seemed to be exceptionally strong. Now, when the people who were telling the story that I heard, they didn't, they didn't focus in on anything that I'm focusing in on. They didn't, they didn't point out the fact that this guy, this guy is how strong? You know, like, that's almost not humanly strong. That's, that's superhuman. Nobody, in the story of Joe Copeland, the strongest man in Tennessee that was known for fighting,

the people were telling that story. They didn't bring up the idea of ancient Nephilim in these lands. they didn't bring up the idea that there are legends of Native American tribes that were exceptionally tall, exceptionally tall, all of them. And so when you start taking these stories and you start marrying them together and you start really kind of just processing things, understanding that you're not going to have all the information as accurate as you prefer to be, there are threads you can pull at and you can start building belief on certain things. And that's what I've been doing for eight years of my life.

Ever since I've been talking to you guys, I've been hearing your stories and seeing similarities and seeing how you know, you're talking about one topic and then all of a sudden, you know, five weeks later, you're talking to somebody else

talking about a completely different topic, but there's details that you're like, oh, I heard that before, but it wasn't Bigfoot, it was dwarfs, huh, you know, or something like that. I was just random thought there, but you start seeing the connections and you start drawing conclusions.

And that's why I just tell you, like, these are my thoughts. You don't need to agree with me. You don't need to believe me. You think for yourself and you do your own thoughts. I'll do my thoughts. You do your thoughts. But that is the cosmic collision episode that I had for you. I wanted to marry the best I could from the heavens to earth. Monsters roaming the earth coming through portals like in South Wales, giant portal monsters that they're trying to cover up right now in real time. And then these cosmic invasions that happened in California. not too long ago, probably about four or five days from now. And we don't have a clear picture, but some of that looked like a cosmic war in the sky. If you look back at those videos, the sheer amount of lights in the sky seemingly chaotic randomness reminded me of a veil being torn open and a cosmic spiritual, supernatural war spilling over into this realm and reality. And we were privy to see it. And they were very quickly trying to come up with excuses like

a drone show in Hawaii that was seen 2,500 miles away. I don't believe it. And we started off the show with the 1945 crash that I thought was just a fascinating story that was not on my radar when I sat down here today. But this was a weird Wednesday, friends. I hope you enjoyed it. If you did enjoy this weird Wednesday, please smash the thumbs up button. Leave me a comment. Drive that algorithm. the more you guys comment, the more you guys hit the like button on these videos, the more YouTube season says, oh, people are watching this. People are enjoying it and they push it to more people. So I always say, the best thing you can do for my show, the confessionals, is to share the show. If you're on YouTube, there's something else you can also do. You can share the

show for sure. But let's lean in on that algorithm. And, you know, if you don't, if you, you know, I always tell people to share the show, but maybe you're one of the people that I was, you know, 10 years ago, 15 years ago, however long it's been, that, you know, I was kind of like in the closet about this stuff. I was like, nobody know that I'm in the Bigfoot out there on weekends hiking through the forest by myself trying to find a Bigfoot. Nobody knew I was doing that except for my wife and my parents. Like nobody, you know, maybe Jack did. But I was just like super quiet about it. I'm like, I'm going to find a Bigfoot. Like if everybody says these things are that big and they're in Pennsylvania, it's not going to be that hard to find. I'll go find it

figured out a month. We'll be moving on with our lives. Still haven't found it. But if you you're one of those people who you really don't want to talk about it publicly, so you don't have anybody to share the show with. It's okay. If you're on YouTube, you can hit the thumbs button and leave a comment underneath an alias name, and that drives the algorithm. And then YouTube will share my show for you to people on YouTube that they think would like this show. So that's how the Algo works. People who comment, hate comments and nasty things. Listen, all I can tell you is this. First of all, you're a fraud. And second of all, you're helping the show anyways. When you comment nasty,

negative things to me, I don't read them. And you're driving the algorithm in my favor. So, if you're a true hater, the best thing you could do is ignore me and go away. But until next Wednesday, friends, to all the real ones, all the ones who love what we're doing over here with the Confessionals YouTube channel and the Confessionals podcast and all the things that I'm trying to do for you is The ones that are the real ones and love the show. Thank you very much for tuning into this weird Wednesday wake up. I do plan on being back next Wednesday. If I'm not, it's just because flights were delayed and I wasn't able to make it in town and time,
