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 four o'clock and let your heart take flight.
Weird Wednesday, wake up, everything's all right.
Yeah. Welcome to the weirdness. I'm excited you're here. It is weird Wednesday. And I am ready to rock.
Wake up. It's Wednesday. I hope you guys are good. I'm stunned. There is a hundred of y'all hanging out here, ready to rock with me on a weird Wednesday.
wake up.
Wake up!
It's Weird Wednesday.
Friends, I started my day at the 237.
It was 237 when I opened my eyes.
I was going to get up at three.
And then I woke up at like, actually I woke up at like two something earlier in like, like, like, 205.
And I was like, I'm tired, man.
Let me just set my alarm for four.
237.
I was awake.
and so I got up and got rolling.
I made a post on Facebook, no, YouTube earlier this week, telling you guys that I was going to start the show early this week because after we are done hanging out this morning, I have to leave town for the next 48 hours.
My schedule is a bit bonkers this coming week, the next two weeks, really.
actually the next month.
We're going to be out of state today, back tomorrow,
and then we're speaking at the Smoky Mountain Bigfoot Conference this coming weekend.
We are hosting a roundtable discussion, and I say we because I feel like you're going to be there with me.
Won't you join me at the Smoky Mountain Bigfoot Conference?
Please join me in Gatlinburg, Pennsylvania.
If you are Pennsylvania, oh my goodness, Pennsylvania, it is early morning.
We're trying to wake up still. I still think I'm in Pennsylvania. In Gatlinburg, Tennessee,
we are going to be hosting a roundtable discussion at the Smoky Mountain Bigfoot Conference.
I will be a speaker for the second year in a different format. So they had asked me to speak last year,
and I did that. And to be honest with you, I didn't like it that much. The jury's still out as to
whether I do speaking at conferences. It's not that fun for me. I am the story guy with Tony.
and, you know, sometimes it's just not really my jam.
And last year I went up there and I spoke for an hour and, you know, it was okay.
But just I didn't really have much fun.
And I'm at a point in my life where if I'm not having fun, what's the point in doing it?
So this year he asked me not to just like speak by myself, but to host a roundtable discussion about Bigfoot.
And I was like, well, sir, that is my wheelhouse.
I told him, yes, absolutely.
And we are doing it this weekend.
This episode is brought to you by Merkmerch.com.
Weird Wednesday wakeup.
Always brought to you by Merkmerch.com.
Go ahead and get your Merk merch.
I am not wearing my Merckmerch today, unfortunately,
because I have a brand new mothman shirt available at the conference this coming weekend.
And it's available right now to the members on the website.
Soon, YouTube members will have access to it as well.
I just haven't had a chance to post it.
But leaving this house this early in the morning,
totally forgot to put on my merch merch.
But it is in existence.
Unfortunately, I'm not wearing it.
But we do have the Moth Man T-shirt coming to the broader public starting next Monday.
Now, Smoking Mountain Bigfoot Conference is going to be awesome.
If you want to get that Moth Man T-shirt early,
than everybody else. You want to show up there to the Smoky Mountain Bigfoot Conference,
hang out, get yourself some cool stuff, meet all the speakers, be part of the environment.
Links for tickets to the Smoky Mountain Bigfoot Conference is listed below.
Also, I'm going to be at the Armed Media Conference. It's an Armed Media Conference in Charlotte,
North Carolina. I'm going to be speaking there for three days next week, not this week,
but next week, starting on Thursday, I believe.
So we'll be in Charlotte next week, and then I'm starting next month. I'll be traveling all over the country for a little bit.
So it's going to be a little bit of a busy time, busy season in my life, but it's all good stuff, friends.
And I'm really glad that you guys are enjoying the content that we put out, whether it's on a stage speaking, on the podcast talking, or out in the woods, hunting monsters.
One of my favorite things to do these days, whatever we're doing, you guys seem to enjoy the content.
so thank you very much for tuning in to another weird Wednesday wake up.
Okay, guys, listen, we are, I am actually pretty excited about announcing this.
And just to let you guys know, he doesn't know I'm doing this.
Yeah, he knows that he's doing this, but he doesn't know that I'm doing this this morning.
So go ahead and bombard him online if you want.
But Josh Robinson from West Virginia is starting a new.
new podcast called Tell Me Strange Things, and he is going to be a new podcast on Merkel Media.
Josh is a pastor up in West Virginia, and he dives into weird topics. And I had a conversation with
the last week, and we both agree to be a good fit for Merkel Media. So here he is. Him and his
co-host are going to be hosting a new show on Merkel Media coming very soon, so you guys can
look forward to that. New podcast coming, Tell Me Strange Things.
You can go ahead and look them up on Instagram.
I don't know if they're on any of the social media platform.
They should be if they're not.
But you can look them up on Instagram and give them a follow because they'll be dropping
their very first episode very, very soon.
So, welcome to the live show.
Everybody's in the chat, hitting it up hard.
Thank you very much, guys.
117 people tuning in live to this weird Wednesday wake up.
Now, what are we talking about today?
we've had an interesting what two weeks it's been about two weeks since reality seemed to shift once again before our eyes
we had on it was two Saturdays ago we had an attempt on Donald Trump's life at a rally and we talked
about it a little bit last week and we kind of mixed it in with this technology boom and space suits that
could fly to the moon. Does Trump need a Ironman suit? Because Elon Musk was venturing into building one.
I talked about that last week. And then over the past week, there has been interesting developments,
let's say, about that day. I was not planning on bringing anything else up with that because,
you know, I'm not trying to talk about the same stuff over and over again on this show. But it's actually
something new. It's actually something new. And if people have not heard about it, we're going to talk
about it right now. Apparently, there were UFOs present that day when Trump almost got his head
shot off. So it's interesting that we have UFOs popping up on the scene here. And let me just
pull this up right now. Let me see if this works. That's the wrong one. There we go. Okay.
So people, I don't know when this actually started getting posted around on the internet that there were
UFOs there. I don't know how it was missed until a few days later. I have speculated that these
are inserted things into video, even though I don't necessarily feel that to be the case,
it's not beyond the realm of possibility in my mind. Okay? So let's pull up some of these images
here on X and show what people are talking about. So this one image here that I'm showing you
is a sphere UFO.
It's a metallic sphere.
And we talked about this on the show sparingly.
The metallic sphere UFOs have been something that has been popping up fairly frequently over the last year, I'd say.
And it's, in my mind, a relatively new phenomenon.
And it's something to be considered on all levels.
this UFO that popped up during this historic day,
and you can see it here in these other videos,
there's actually videos of multiple UFOs,
sphere UFOs, more disc-flat-shaped UFOs.
So I don't know how many UFOs were actually present that day.
but I can tell you there's a lot of perspective to consider when it comes to how to view all of this.
The picture that I'm showing right now is probably the only picture that I've seen where there's
multiple, multiple, multiple UFOs in the image.
What I'm looking at right now for those who are listening is a disc-shaped-looking UFO with
four metallic sphere UFOs around it.
Now, let's kind of talk about how this could work.
How we can think about this.
Because I think there's two different, very realistic ways to look at this.
Just to let you guys know, if you want, you can hit the link on YouTube and on Facebook.
if you'd like to join me on video live to contribute to conversation.
The link is on YouTube and Facebook.
So let's start off with the physical side of this.
These UFOs have been on the scene for quite some time.
You know, at least the 40s, right?
We can talk about the historical events of UFOs,
but at least the 40s is when it's,
it really kind of ticked up. And we have Area 51 launching. You got Bob Lazar coming out and talking
about him working on these things. They're reverse engineering. I think there's a strong
possibility and likelihood that a lot, not all, but a lot. And when I say a lot, I'm not talking about
50%, 70%, 80%, I'm just saying a lot. I don't know the percentage. You decide for yourself.
But I do think that there are a lot of UFO sightings that we have today that are reverse engineer technology that we didn't have access to 30, 40 years ago.
I think they made significant strides in reversing the technology that probably was given to them.
So is this reversed engineered technology that was made by human beings that was present the day of the assassination attempt?
And if that's the case, what humans would have access to such technology?
Not you or I?
Certainly not.
What about the government?
Yes. So if this is reverse-engineered technology that the government has and utilized that day,
why was the government there with UFOs that day? There's a lot of talk about how this could have been a setup.
I've heard up to four shooters. I'm not sold that there was more than one, to be honest with you.
I'm not saying there it was or wasn't.
All I'm saying is that there could have been a lot of explanations as to some of the,
there could have been a lot of alternative explanations to the explanations that I've saw
floating around online.
So what if this 20-year-old dork was a patsy?
And he was manipulated by people to go through with these actions.
but he was never relied upon to actually fulfill those actions.
It's an interesting thought.
The MK Ultra programming is something that can get overlooked with these kind of things a lot.
And I personally believe that we are all brainwashed and that we are all, to a certain extent, manipulated by the information that is.
given to us.
Myself, you listening, people around you.
And I think that through the state-run media, which we've covered at nauseam on the show over
the years, it's quite legal now since 2012 to use propaganda on the American public.
So I think that there's no way of escaping.
the fact that you are propagated one way or another to a certain extent. It's up to you to use your
own brain and think for yourself, of course, but they have 10 ways to Sunday to getting information
in front of you to steer your brain certain directions. And I do believe that there are certain
people out there that have been brainwashed through these different ways more extensively than
others just by a combination of them personally willingly inundating themselves with propaganda
to their circumstantial situations in life, putting them in positions to have been brainwashed
more severely than others. And with that said, I think there are trigger words
that can trigger people to do extraordinarily bizarre, wild,
unthinkable things because they're not in their right mind once they have that certain
thing said. And so when you have an entire overarching government who is actively brainwashing
every single person underneath their thumb and they know they can just say key phrases,
key words put out through the media. And they don't know, I honestly believe they
don't know who. I don't think they know exactly who, but I think that they do know that there
will be certain people who will be triggered by those words and phrases that they use,
and they will be activated to do crazy things. I don't even think they know exactly,
they may not know exactly what these people, once they're triggered, will do. They don't know
if it will be somebody who goes on stage and tries to go at him with a knife or cybertack or
try to be a sniper. So there's a lot of different variables that you can look at here as to how
all this kind of came together. But for me, I think that there certainly is a realm of possibility
that there were several people activated that day. And here,
he, this 20-year-old dork,
uh, is the one that, you know, got through.
But how do you explain the UFOs?
Do UFOs shoot?
Like, if we had a reverse engineered UFO, does it shoot bullets, laser beams?
I don't know. I just think it's, it's pretty bizarre that on this one of the most historic days
in our country that, cert.
Certainly. Anytime there's an attempt on a president or a former president's life, it's
historic. There was UFOs present that day in several pictures and videos. Now, another way to
look at the UFO situation that day, and I really think there is, I probably, if you had to tell
me to choose one side or the other, I'm going to choose this side, what I'm about to talk about.
You know, you can talk about the physical, the physical side of this realm and people making these crafts through reverse engineering.
But I also think there's a real spiritual element to this.
And the fact that there are metallic sphere UFOs present, for me, gives me a tip as to what's going on.
So Jeremy Corbell, I believe, is the one who said that the sphere UFOs, from what he understands, what he was told, I don't know who told him, but this is just what I heard through the grapevine, that the sphere UFOs are not manned UFOs.
They are coming from another realm, and they are drones being sent from another realm.
And the reason why they are drones being sent from another realm is because when they were sending
their other crafts through the veil, through the portal, through the doorway into this realm,
through that piercing of the veil, there were direct energy weapons that were shooting these
things down.
And so they shifted and pivoted to sending drones.
through so that they wouldn't be losing their biological meat sacks that house demons.
My words, they're not theirs.
But hey, it's my show.
So given that information about the metallic spheres coming from another realm as drones,
I think that there's a real argument to be made here that with what was going on that day,
what was going on in the other realm?
And I asked that question.
With what was going on that day here in this realm,
20-year-old dork somehow getting on top of a roof that was supposedly manned,
then unmanned just at the right time, crawled on top of a roof,
right outside of a window that supposedly had a command center where they were planning things
and making sure they were covering all vantage points.
So we know what was happening in this realm.
a lot of
a lot of shenanigans,
a lot of weird stuff.
But what was happening
in the other realm
at the same time?
If you think about
what could have happened that day
if that bullet
was just a few inches over
to the right,
I think it would be.
We would be living
in an absolute chaotic world.
We already do.
But the chaos
that would have unfolded
from that day,
I don't think would
settle down for years.
Years.
And you gotta think about the spiritual element
to
what was happening here in this physical realm.
I think there was a real war,
a real spiritual war happening
just on the other side of that veil.
And I think it was heavy,
extremely strong.
And these UFOs
might have been a visual representation of what was happening just on the other side that
they'll spilling over into this realm. I mean, look at that picture. If this is an authentic
picture, you have one large UFO and four metallic spheres flying around it, behind it,
circling it, I'm not sure. It's a picture. It really could be a physical, visual representation of the
spilling over of the warring that was happening just on the other side of that veil. If you think about like
a climactic point of a movie where it's all building up and it's the final battle or as my son
would say, it's the boss fight. It's at the end. It's the thing. July 13th might have been,
been the boss fight on the other side of that realm. I mean, if you want to think about like,
just, you know, that feeling when you walk out of a movie and you feel like you're still in the
theater and you're, and you don't want to walk out because you don't want to face reality,
you want to be part of the magic that you just were, the spell you were just under in the theater,
and you want to be one of the Marvel characters that you just watched, that feeling that you have
when you walk out of a theater.
That's kind of what I'm picturing happening
just on the other side of that veil.
I don't know what that looks like.
I don't know what it looked like.
I don't know exactly what a spiritual war
happening in the other realm looks like.
In my mind, I can't even fathom it.
I mean, I don't think it's angels with flaming swords trying to chop demons heads off.
I don't know what it looks.
I don't think it looks like that, but I think that it was extremely heavy.
And it was an extreme buildup to a very pivotal moment in time.
And I think that that energy could have spilled over into this realm.
What are your thoughts on that? Were these drones? Or is this a spiritual war that literally spilled over into this realm? And the sheer amount of UFOs that were present at this pivotal moment in history are just mere evidence and proof of the extremeness of that war. That's kind of where I lean. I would prefer
it to be
reverse engineer technology.
That's what I would prefer.
I would prefer that this be
human,
created,
planned,
executed,
and we can just
correct ship,
correct course,
slap people in hand. No, no, that bad.
Don't do that.
My little Bill Gates reference.
that would be the easier thing to handle by far.
But I lean the other way.
I lean in the direction that this was proof, evidence,
visual representation of how serious it's getting
just on the other side of that door.
The door that most of us don't have keys to,
it can be concerning if you're not totally comfortable
where you're at on a spiritual level.
But that's how I see it.
Here's a video of the larger UFO going through frame.
It would make sense just judging by this video of how far back the large UFO is,
that if there were metallic spheres flying by it, around it, behind it,
you wouldn't see it.
You see how fast that's moving.
And some people say that it could have been burnt.
Very well could have been.
but there, I don't have it pulled up here, but there was a series of photos shown of how one of the,
the metallic spheres were shooting across the sky and how there was like four pictures of it moving.
And you could see the movements of the humans in the picture and how they really weren't moving that much.
Yeah, this thing covered some serious distance.
I don't think it was a bird. Could this be in a bird? Maybe. Maybe. There's the still of it again. Does that look like a bird to you? Doesn't look like a bird to me, especially with the being accompanied by the other UFOs. In video, maybe. But when you had the still, it doesn't really look like it. It's very interesting. It's very interesting how the word,
are colliding. This is what I talked about years ago when I first started the podcast. And I
feel like I talk about things sometimes too much. And then there's other things that I don't talk
about enough because I feel like everybody knows it. But I think it's more I know it and I talk
about it enough. And I feel like everybody's just caught on. But for people who maybe are new to the show,
that's why I always tell people, if you really want to understand the progression of my brain,
I mean, I'm crazy. Yes, let's just get that out. I am a little stupid and crazy, okay? But if you want
to see how I got here, I would say start around episode late 400s, early 5, definitely 500s.
but before that, when I started the podcast,
I would tell people that the higher you go up in these conspiracy rabbit hole realms,
the further you climb that ladder,
the closer you're going to get with the paranormal and supernatural.
Because at the top, they merge, they converge.
And I think July 13th might have been one of the most
relevant representations of that day.
Interesting things to think about, though,
and ponder friends.
Very interesting things to think about and ponder.
So that's the UFO spillover from the spiritual realm
into this realm, how I view it and how I see it.
Now, I think that there are other things going on in this world
right now that we can point to
and see what my argument I just made happening.
We can see it happening right before our eyes.
And Joel sent me, Joel Thomas, sent me some interesting pictures.
So I think this was earlier this week or late last week.
It wasn't too far in the past, recently.
there was an accident in Ohio.
And one of his friends in Ohio sent him a link to check out
because it was a traffic cam footage of the accident on a highway.
And what the traffic camera caught on camera,
I think is another depiction of my argument
that the veil is thinning and the realms are converging
and there's a spillover happening right now.
Of course we got ads. Here we go.
Driver thrown from US or SUV during rollover crash on I-675.
And this looks like a normal traffic camera.
I mean, maybe it doesn't to you,
because I kind of primed you on it.
But we're going to look at this fellow right here.
Because to me, I'm looking here, and there's more pictures.
We're just starting here.
I feel like we're looking at possibly one of the best pictures and video of a hat man in broad daylight.
when this was sent to me,
Joel suggested,
I think he even said the word,
Reaper.
Well, the more I looked at it,
to me, that looks more like a hat man.
Now, I don't know if we're looking at
the spirit of somebody dead.
I don't think we are because the headline says,
driver thrown,
okay, so it says thrown in a rollover crash,
it says the driver was seriously injured after being thrown from their vehicle Thursday afternoon.
So this was last week.
It doesn't say they died.
It says that they were seriously injured on scene.
They would have said if they died on scene.
So I don't think that's, I think we can chalk up the whole, that's the spirit of the person that got thrown from the vehicle.
I don't think that's the case here.
And so what is this?
This is a very clear picture. And I am scrambling right now because I had pictures, but I have them on the wrong computer now because I had to switch to a whole switch in the beginning. So we'll just work with what we got. So this actually made it to Reddit. And there have been people noticing what I just described to you. Let me see if I can actually get these people.
pictures up here because it is going to bother me if I can't show you up close the one picture
that I wanted to show you. So let me take a second here, pause for brief intermission,
just to see if I can load these pictures. You know what? We're going to wait. We're just going to,
we're just going to let it. Let me see if I can get this one here for you. Okay. This is the, this is the point
of the show where having a helper would be helpful.
So there's not dead air.
Or I could say, hey, producer, why don't you pull that thing up?
But unfortunately, we don't have producer here.
So we're just going to let it go.
We're just going to let it go for now.
And we're going to get back to the window where we're looking at.
There we go.
So in this picture here, you don't see a whole lot, but that is the wreck.
The next picture, you see that same entity on the other side of the road.
The reason why I wanted to have the actual files to pull up for you guys, because then I have more control of zooming in.
So I apologize that this is about as far as I can zoom in.
but tell me if I'm wrong, but that looks like the same entity that was standing on the other side of the road.
It doesn't seem to have arms and even possibly legs there.
In the other picture, it to me looked far more physical and whole, as you can see here,
and almost looks like it has a hat on it.
You can see the feet.
But that looks like the same entity to me on one side of the road.
And then as people were driving by and taking pictures,
they see the same entity on the other side of the road standing next to the crash.
That's pretty wild.
That's pretty wild.
Happened last week.
And I think there's something else happening here that's even more wild.
Like everybody likes seeing.
the stuff, right? Like, if I could show you what Bigfoot I would, right? Like, I could. I could show you
the Bigfoot stuff that's online and you guys have 10 different reasons why it's fake. But this is cool,
right? Just on itself. You see this being, this entity spilling over into this realm. I think that
there is something even more wild happening here. And this is just Tony's thoughts that.
he had at 3.30 this morning getting ready to come in here. I think we might be experiencing
and viewing right here in this moment, a phenomenon that we have talked about on this show.
I mentioned about the UFOs and the spiritual warfare spilling over into this realm.
I mentioned about the doorway, the piercing of the veil, how that's thinning. I mentioned about
that doorway. A lot of times I say this on the show about how we don't have access to go to
through that door naturally, like these things can come through the door. They can go back and forth.
We naturally don't have that ability. There are people who do it for sure, but we don't have the
natural ability to do that. But in that same vein, in that same context and thought process,
we often talk about, or I talk about the portal bridge.
I often talk about how I think there are plenty of instances on my show
where people have shared experiences where it seems like they weren't here,
but they weren't somewhere else either.
And I've come to just call it the portal bridge.
it's a bridge between this realm and another.
It's not so instantaneously done as maybe Hollywood makes it look like.
And what I find really interesting about this is the other characters in this situation.
So what we're looking at right now is a traffic camera that is on the highway, that is
shooting video of the scene. This traffic camera records this black shadowy figure entity in the road.
And then as people are on the other side of the road driving by, they're able to record it.
They're recording this being on both sides of the roads with cameras. Now, I'm not sure if anybody in a
car driving by saw it in person. I don't have that story for you. The person who posted this
picture from their car on the other side of the highway, I don't have their words telling us
what they saw in person. But I can tell you that if I was this fireman or this one or probably the
other dozen or two dozen guys and girls on scene, if a hat man showed up on the road and stood
there staring at me with no face, I'd be freaking out. I'd be losing my mind. I'd be like,
what the heck is this? Who are you? Ah, get my phone out. Something. Hey, Billy, look at this.
Excuse me, sir. Can I help?
you? But there's no interaction. There's no interaction. That guy is sitting on the front of the truck,
not caring at all. Nobody's seeing this thing. I don't think that people who were there
at that physical location could see what people on the outside of that physical location could
see. Now, I don't have the science. Listen, you guys know, I'm not science guy.
I don't have the science at how this all works.
I just talk to people.
I have conversations.
They share their stories with me
and through almost 700 episodes
kind of build up my own thoughts on how things work.
Right?
It's not gospel.
But what I'm looking at here
makes me feel like
we are
having a rare opportunity
to be able to look in and see that bridge from one realm to the next.
Trust me, I really wish that there was this glowing circle portal that opened up just above the trucks there
and we see this hat man coming out of it, right?
I really wish that could be the case.
but unfortunately, I don't know if the portal bridge is that exciting.
I think the events that happen around portal bridges are riveting.
Episode 512, I think it is, Desert Portal Death Colt.
James tells us about how he went through that experience.
And literally his experience, he described.
what it was like trying to escape the other,
to escape the bridge,
because I think he was existing on the bridge
for an extended period of time.
But he described the physical things he felt
trying to escape the bridge.
But getting onto the bridge was instantaneous.
Fast.
I joke about it a lot, but I really wish,
I really wish I, sometimes I wish.
Listen, I wanted to call the episode Portal Potty.
That's what I wanted to call it, the Portal Potty.
Because in the story, that's where everything changed.
In the story, it was just him chilling.
He goes to take a leak.
And when he comes out of the portal, when he comes out of the Portopody,
Portopody Portal, everything's different.
there's way more people there.
I really wanted to call it that.
But I thought
nobody's going to take it serious.
People don't take me serious anyways half the time.
But I just thought it would be a bad step
because it was such a wild story
and heartfelt that I thought I would cheapen it
if I did that.
But he describes, without saying it,
he described to me the portal bridge.
And he existed on it
for an extended period of time.
For the time he left the porta potty portal
to the time that he realized
life was really getting crazy that night
and he literally ran through the desert
and he described the physical things he felt
trying to escape the portal bridge.
I think we were looking at the portal bridge right now.
I think what we're seeing
is the spilling over of the supernatural realm
invading our reality.
I think that
as time goes on, we're going to have more of these.
It used to be rare. It's going to become commonplace.
The veil is thinning. The veil is very thin at this point right now.
I think. You may not think. It's fine.
And I think things like this are going to happen more and more.
We're going to have opportunities to see through the veil and see
two worlds existing together at one time. It's pretty wild stuff. It's pretty wild stuff.
I think this is probably, I'm calling it a hat man because, I mean, here it looks like a guy that's
wearing a jumper with a hoodie to me, to me, but over here it looks like a duster. It looks like
he's wearing a duster. You see his little legs there and probably wearing oversized boots and a
Adora. That's a hatman. That looks like a hat man to me. What is the hat man doing at the crime
scene? You know, the scene of the accident. What's that man doing or that thing doing?
We hear about the Reaper showing up. We don't hear about the hat man showing up at these moments,
do we? Usually the hat man shows up in our bedroom and stands there and stares at us and does
absolutely nothing but scare the crap out of people. And he does it so many times that eventually
people get used to it and they stop caring. Oh, it's you again. I hope I'm never in that kind of
position where an entity is visiting me so much that it just becomes part of the decor of a room
between the hours of midnight and 3 a.m. Some of you guys that have these experiences that are
ongoing, I do not envy you. I'll leave the entities in the forest when I go hunting,
stay there, leave me alone.
Oh, you can't control that, Tony.
I know you can't control it,
but there are things I can't control.
And if the entities are entities,
then there are things you can do to combat that.
But this is pretty wild.
So I wanted to talk about,
along with the spilling over of realms
and these entities invading our realms,
our realm,
you have the UFO spilling over on July 13th, the invasion of the sphere UFOs.
Then you have this situation here in Ohio where you have the hat man invading the scene of an accident.
It's almost like he has his hands in his pockets waiting for somebody to die.
He's like, I'm just sitting here chilling waiting for his got to die because if he dies, I'm here for him.
like that's what that's the vibe that I have looking at this but there's also there's also an
uptick of mothman type sightings and we've had uh we've had bow Kennedy from the bump
podcast on the last uh I think three or four months ago and he suggested that I don't even
think Bo a hundred percent believes this
but I think that he leans on it as a strong possibility.
But he suggests that there could be a connection between Mothman and Lilith.
And when you start looking into Lilith and you start looking at how Lilith presents herself,
the presentation of humanoid bird is very common.
bird feet.
And so he makes a, let's just say a loose connection between the two.
But even without, with, because I say that because Lilith is clearly realm shifting, realm spilling,
an invader of realms not only into this realm, but into our dreams.
Lilith attacks people in dreams all the time.
All the time.
and the dreams are a rare time where we slip into other existences through lucid dreaming.
So anyways, the mothman has been having an uptick in Appalachia, but also in Chicago.
I'm assuming many of you have heard about, you know, Mothman showing itself in Chicago over.
time. But this one I find interesting. And by the way, let's give a proper shout out to
Lawn Strickler from Phantoms and Monsters. Like, the man just has phenomenal stories that have been
shared with him on his website. If you have not gone to Phantoms and Monsters website, you're missing
out. There are tons of fantastic stories on there of people's firsthand accounts being relayed to
lawn. Love it. Absolutely love it. He's been around for a long time. That website's been around
for a long time. And this website clearly uses it because they're quoting lawn right here.
but what I find interesting about this situation,
and pardoned me
because I had my notes on the desktop for this to show you,
but I had to do that whole switcheroo thing,
so I don't have my spots saved on this computer as I show you.
So let me just do this.
Instead of fumbling around trying to find my spots,
I retell you about this man, Joseph,
Palu. I'll start reading it here. Joseph is an N-P-M-H union shop steward and a World Trade Center 9-11 survivor.
Boom, right there. Full stop. Full stop. This guy is a 9-11 survivor. Now, I don't know the whole
story. Maybe he was on the absolute other side of the island and he is just somebody who says,
I was in the zip code, so I survived.
I don't feel like most people would do that.
I mean, maybe people would do that, but I think that would be pretty shady.
Put yourself in somebody's shoes that is in New York on 9-11.
The towers are hit.
They come crashing down around you.
Over what, 3,000 people died that day?
You saw death.
You looked it in the face and you survived.
Will you ever have another story in your entire life that will have any kind of comparison to that?
I don't think so.
I don't think you would have a need to come up with a fantastical story because you already have the fantastical story.
I don't know.
but Joseph says that he was in Chicago for the 2016 National Convention.
Now, I believe that's Democratic because I think the Democrats hold their convention in
Chicago.
So he was actually staying in the same hotel as the convention on August 22nd, 2016.
So yeah, I'm pretty sure that's the Democratic convention.
he had just lost his mother or got word that his mom was ill and in the hospital and couldn't sleep
and decided to look out the window. I think it was eight stories up. And when he's looking out
the window, he sees this black humanoid looking thing flying on his level through Chicago.
and the article of references that he thought that it would possibly be like a trash bag right here.
It says his first thought was that it was a trash bag, a black garbage bag,
though he soon realized that the altitude of this object was much higher than a garbage bag would typically be seen.
Then he imagined that it was an oversized kite or drone,
but it was nighttime, and that was probably not the correct identification.
As he continued to watch the object, it became apparent to Joe that this was clearly a dark-colored six-foot-long humanoid with wide wings that was slowly gliding to the left of his room.
So he sees that he has this humanoid thing with wings flying around outside his hotel room, the same hotel that the convention is being held at.
Again, I think that the other realm has a vested interest in what happens here in this realm.
The story's cool.
The sightings are cool.
But is there a deeper meaning and reason as to why these things are happening at these locations?
Is this a tiny bit of a spillover of spiritual warfare happening in this realm?
Is there a spillover?
I do think that there is a vested interest 100%.
And so it goes on talking about his experience,
but that's pretty much the gist of it.
And this was posted here on this website, April 19th, 2020,
but this happened in 2016.
He's just coming out and talking about it now.
Now, this next one here is also in Illinois,
Canville, Illinois.
I'm not exactly sure how far that is
from Chicago, Illinois. But nevertheless, nevertheless, not less, less. Nevertheless, it is another
winged humanoid creature flying around in Illinois. And this guy here, his name is Matt Sexton.
He has had three encounters with this winged creature flying around. And the last
one I thought was the most dramatic. And so let's just pull that up. I just typed in third to
word search. Here we go. Sexton's third encounter, I think, was the one that we, that I want to,
I want to share with you guys, because it's pretty wild. Sexton's third encounter took place on
McGuire, McGuire Road, about three or four miles west of Caneville, approximately 2.15 a.m.
By the way, friends, I hope I don't forget to show you before we get out of here
because I had something weird happened to me this morning when I was leaving my house to come in here.
I don't know if it came out from underneath the bridge, Sexton said.
It just swooped down real close, almost touching the windshield.
And that made me swerve because the creature took up so much of the windshield and it was so huge.
I swerved into the oncoming lane, hit the gravel, and I got my composure back.
after that, I was wondering what the hell was going on.
I came down again from the right side of the left over.
It came down again from the right side to the left over my hood,
buzzing over my hood,
and then it was 30 to 40 yards to the left and up in the sky.
So he's driving his truck,
and he has this winged creature flying around his truck,
buzzing the truck in an aggressive manner.
here it gets kind of a little more aggressive as the story goes on. The winged humanoid appeared
to Sexton as a well-defined black silhouette while it flew. The sky was cloudy and the lights of the
nearby Sugar Grove helped illuminate the area just enough to see its silhouette against the cloud
cover. At that point, I started to speed up and now I hit the gas just trying to get away
from whatever it was. And it went over the roof of my truck and then back over the hood again.
And it was keeping up with me. I was going about 110 miles an hour just trying to get as far away as
possible. Now, listen, 110 might seem extreme to everybody. And it's a little extreme to me too.
110. I'm not young anymore. I don't want to go over 100 miles an hour. That's kind of scary zone for me.
But if you're running from a flying monster who's trying to get your truck, it makes sense.
Go 110, go 120 for all I care.
But in Illinois, I can tell you that I spent time in this neighboring state of Indiana up really
close to Illinois on the border there.
Those roads are very straight, very long.
There's not a whole lot of twists and turns.
And so to get going 110 miles an hour trying to run away from something, I could see.
If it was in one of these areas, I could see that actually being a plausible thing.
and not having to worry about, you know, zigzagging around turns like here in Tennessee.
You don't get a straight shot anywhere.
But that's when Sexton went to the Torres 9mm pistol that he had with him.
I applaud the effort and thought, but I don't think a 9mm is taking this thing down.
Just saying.
At this point, I've had too many good looks at the creature.
I don't know what it was.
It's not anything that I've seen before, and I'm genuinely fearing for my life.
So according to this statement, this is, must be something distinctly different than what he saw in his previous two encounters.
This is his third encounter, but it's nothing he's ever seen before.
It kept coming down at my vehicle, and when I saw it was keeping up with me, I started firing at it.
I'm just picturing somebody sticking their gun out the window like a cowboy.
Ba, ba, ba, ba, ba, ba, ba, ba, ba, ba, ba, ba, ba, ba, you know.
There might be people who have bullet holes.
in their houses. There might be people who have bullet holes in their houses in this area.
There might be. If there was a mysterious murder that happened in this area that morning,
it might have been Matt. It was an accident, but it might have been him. It might have been him.
Sexton was in fight or flight mode and thought, if it's a bird and I overreact and killed a bird,
then I can deal with that. Certainly can, buddy.
But if it's something that I need to defend myself from, then I'll do what I have to.
Well, it's coming in on your truck aggressively. So clearly it's something that's trying to get at you,
bro. Come at me, bro. Well, it did. It did. He fired seven or eight rounds at the winged being,
but doesn't know if he actually hit it. He says, it wrapped itself into its wings and started to
descend. I followed it down firing. So it must have been a
at the front of its truck of his truck. I followed it down firing and it was gone after that,
Sexton said. I haven't seen it since. So in my head, I'm hearing the story and reading it. I'm
thinking he's doing this number. He's reaching behind him while he's driving. He's reaching out
with the left hand firing, pop, pop, pop, bah, bah, randomly. But according to this, it must have been in
front of him. So keeping up with his vehicle in front of him while he's driving 110 miles an hour,
cowboying it up, shooting.
So witching hours, three o'clock in the morning.
That's not when the veil, the portal to the other realms open up.
It's when it's the most thin.
Okay?
I think it actually starts at midnight.
I think the woo-woo starts at midnight, it ends at like 6 a.m.
I think that's how I've heard it described it.
Three o'clock is like the peak.
It's not the beginning and end of it all.
And so this is happening at him at 2.15 in the morning.
morning, there's clearly something happening here. And is this, if it's a mothman, it's hard for me to
believe that mothman only exists in this realm, if nothing else, just because of what we know about
mothman and point pleasant. But if it's just a giant winged monster, could it just exist in this realm?
maybe, or maybe it's spilling over because we're approaching the three o'clock hour in the morning
and that's when the veil is finished. He's trying to get its dirty work in while the door was
wide open. It's interesting stuff. In Chicago, there is an underground facility that we talked
about it on the show a while ago with Justin from Cryptids of the Corn, I believe. Was it Justin?
I think it was Justin. He shared that a co-worker of his
discovered like pipes coming out of the out of like a river or something outside Chicago
and alluding to the fact that there's an underground facility under Chicago and there's a lot
of weird things about Chicago not on the level of you know weird Colorado Denver which I don't
think we even touch Denver in our very first episode of Weird Wednesday when we talked about
weird Colorado but there is an underground facility in Chicago Chicago does have a
a particle accelerator, kind of like what we have here in Tennessee, Oak Ridge, Tennessee,
these baby particle accelerators that are just tiny fractions of what is,
it looks like somebody else made the connection here in the chat. Brian Stokes says,
CERN, I believe, is responsible for thinning out the veil and opening up so many
portals that these entities think it's spring break. Brian, that's a cool comment, my friend.
friend. Very cool. But yeah, I mean, so there really could be a connection to the particle accelerator,
the CERN-type facilities that these things are utilizing those locations. Maybe it's the energies.
Maybe they're actually opening portals. You know, like you all know my thoughts on that,
especially the one here in Tennessee with just my interactions with the people that I know locally here
that have had their portal interactions with these facilities.
So I think there could be a connection, though,
to the fact that these winged creatures are popping up
in the same area that there is a particle accelerator in the same area.
Interesting.
Interesting.
This episode was brought to you by murkmerch.com.
Go ahead, get your Merckmerch.
I'm very disappointed that I don't have.
my Merk merch on today. I forgot it at the house. I have a brand new Mothman, speaking of Mothman,
a brand new Mothman t-shirt that is available right now to members on my website. YouTube members
will have access to it very soon, probably before I leave the studio today. And I'll be selling
them at the Smoking Mountain Bigfoot Conference this weekend. So if you're coming to the Smoky
Mount Bigfoot conference, stop on by the booth, say hi, get yourself a Mothman shirt or whatever you'd
like and it's going to be a fun time. So merccom for all your Merkel Media apparel needs.
So let's show you one more thing here. I thought it was just kind of funny. So I want to show you.
Mothman. Mothman has a tramp stamp. I was looking at a, I was looking at Mothman stuff in
preparation for the show. And I saw this. And I was like, who would defile the Mothman in Point Pleasant like
that putting a tramp stamp on the mothman man man i wish i wish we could catch that man or or lady who did that
the person who did that abuse to the mothman tramp stamp come on now i see in the chat here that
sculpture kind of sucks does it it's legendary it's a legendary sculpture but yes mothman now has a
tramp stamp and is ready to get its freak on with you, just like all the other succubus and
incubus that it hangs out with in the other realm. That's its calling card. It's shifting tactics.
It is now going to start the seduction part of its existence, and it will start seducing you,
wagging its tail, its tramp stamp, hoping it gets all the millennials all rowed up.
Because I don't think tramp stamps are a thing anymore, right?
That was back in my day.
The whole tramp stamp thing.
When I was in high school, there were a couple girls.
I got tattoos and their lower backs.
I don't hear too much about the tramp stamp these days.
But I'm also an old man that has been very well disconnected from that side of the world and existence.
You know?
Been with my wife for 20 years, married for 17.
I don't really go see.
out the tramp stands these days. But Mawthonan does. Oh, shoot. Thanks, Believe Hole.
Believe Whole with the super chat. Beliefhole says, thanks for the weird Wednesday wake up, Tony.
Those Ohio highway photos were crazy. I'm setting Google Maps to avoid highways from now on.
I don't need to run into realm inner loopers, lopers in that liminal space.
Well, Believehole, thanks for popping in and for the super chat. People should definitely check.
out Believe Whole if you haven't. Who hasn't checked out Believe Hole podcast, right?
Fantastic production. They really, really, really put a lot of effort into production,
the video and audio. So check out Believe Hole if you haven't done so. Yes, this is your first
time hearing about Believe Hole. Look at that logo. How could you not want to click and subscribe?
So that is the Moth Man prophecies and the spilling over of realms. These entities are invading
our realms friends and I am not here to have it. No, no, no. If there's anybody who wants to pop on with me,
I see there is one person here in waiting Miranda, but I am not going to click on it because I think
it's going to be a waste of time because it says device not connected, so I don't think Miranda's even
here. But if you want to hop on live with me and contribute to the conversation and share your
thoughts of what we covered today, go ahead and click the link on your YouTube description and on
Facebook. Facebook, it's in the comments. YouTube. It's in the description of this video. And I'd love to
bring you on. And, oh, and Miranda just disappeared. So I'm assuming she was there. Well,
Miranda, if you want to hop back on, go ahead, hop back on. And I'd be happy to bring you on. I didn't
think you were there. Usually people are on video. And if you're going to pop in here,
definitely pop in on video. Up, there she is. Let me bring her on before she disappears on me again.
There she is. Miranda, how are you?
Good morning. I'm actually dropping to work.
That's fine. Where are you from?
Can you hear me? I can hear you.
I think we might be on a little bit of delay.
There we go.
You say West Virginia?
Yeah. Hickory, North Carolina.
Oh, North Carolina. Gotcha. Are you coming to Smoky Mountain Bigfoot Conference?
No, it's actually just...
Not this weekend.
Okay. Miranda, it's actually, I think you're a little bit on a delay and the audio is a bit wonky because you're on a delay.
So listen, Miranda, I appreciate you hopping on with me, but maybe we can do this again sometime when you have a better connection.
But hey, you hung out there the whole time and I saw you in there and then you popped back in.
So I had to bring you on.
People, Miranda does exist.
I wasn't making it up just to sound popular.
She was actually there.
And here she is.
So Miranda, thanks for hopping on with me.
I'm going to pop her off there because she was just a connection was a little poor.
And so just for the consumer's sake, we moved on. I wish I could have had more conversation with Miranda.
But if you want to hop on with me, feel free to do so. Now, my friends, let's get to this next thing, shall we?
We will take this off the screen. Oh, look at that. My big, beautiful face there. Let's minimize that as much as possible.
I'm going to bring up a video that I shot this morning.
And it was weird.
I'm not going to lie.
It was weird.
And it kind of set me down this thought process.
Now, if you're a member to the show, you have heard this story.
Hunter came out to the studio.
He sat over here in Studio A and told us his experiences.
And the last thing he shared was how he had a lucid dream about me where he saw me
getting out of my truck at my house and had two black cloaked entity figures walking behind me
around the back of my house because I walked around the back of my house for some reason and
that was weird. And he actually described the house accurately to me. Later, he actually drew my house
for me and sent me pictures and I have them somewhere. I didn't think I'd go down this road so I didn't
have it prepared. But he did draw the house for me. Actually, you know what, I'm not going to show you because I don't
want you to see my house, actually. We're not going to do that. But I do believe he's authentic.
I don't think that he is lying. Several people suggested that he's a stocker. I don't think that's the
case. I've talked with him for a long time. It wasn't like, I didn't just meet him when he came to
studio. He's been on the show, I think episode five, oh, I think it was episode five, five, ten. I think it was
5-10, episode 5-10 he was on initially, and we kept in touch. And he, it just, anyways,
I don't want to go down that road. Anyways, it got me thinking, though, about that situation when I,
when I watched what happened in front of me, because knowing I was coming in here to talk to you
about spilling over of realms and the realm invaders, what I saw this morning made me feel like the
realm was descending upon me in the moment. It was weird. So let me pull this video here.
And all right. So now that we have the video here, I want to kind of break this down for you as we
go. I apologize. It's a vertical video. I am getting used to shooting everything in vertical
format because of all the reels and crap.
So ideally, I would have done it in a horizontal format so you could see it better.
But that's my truck right now in the driveway.
It's running and, you know, warming up my truck like a good boy like I was taught.
And I'm fumbling around the front door trying to find the lock on my door to lock it all up.
And something just tells me to turn around and look behind me.
and in my head, I'm thinking the two shadow entities, you know, like, you know, I'm not going to lie.
It's on my mind, you know, it's on my mind.
Like, we've had, listen, I've had, so on the normal podcast, this is a different type of show, right?
So it's me talking and hanging out with you guys.
You guys get to hear a little bit more of me talking.
Some of you are like, oh, I wish you would shut up.
But on the show, I'm not really looking to.
to make it about me every episode.
And so you don't hear about this stuff.
But there have been, let's just put this way,
numerous people in the last year that have threatened me,
not just physically, but spiritually,
threatened to astral project to my location.
I have Hunter in studio telling me of what he saw.
I take the stuff kind of serious, you know?
Like, am I afraid?
No, I'm not afraid.
I do take it serious.
So part of me is like,
turn around and look, bro.
Turn around and look,
because if you got to shoot,
you might be shooting some cloaked entity
that may the bullets just go right through.
I don't know, but we got to know what's coming.
I turn around and I look and I see not the cloak entities.
Thank God.
But what I do see in the sky,
off in the distance, not too far, is flashing light.
It's like the light is illuminating.
Now, it's not a thunderstorm because there was the moon out.
As I was driving into the office today, the moon was shining.
But I haven't even looked at this video, to be honest with this.
I hope that there's light that you're going to see here.
But let's hit play.
And you're going to look right around the middle of the screen, I'd say.
and you should see flashing light.
I see it. There, there it is again.
You see that? See that?
Can you all see that right there where my pointer is?
Watch.
Right there. See it?
It's a weird flashing light in the sky.
There it is.
About 320 in the morning.
I can see it. So hopefully you guys can see it.
But I,
some part of me just totally look around.
Just turn around look.
And usually that early in the morning, I'm not really, I'm not really think about anything, really.
I wish I didn't have to go do this.
You know, like, I guess, I'm to be honest with you.
I was tired.
And I didn't want to come in today, especially after I have to leave, leave after this, you know.
But the show must go on.
But I turn around and I see this flashing light.
And I'm like, you know, I'm going to go, I'm going to go find where this is at.
Like, that's what my plan was.
Like, I was going to drive towards, like, because I was going in that direction anyway.
and I was planning on
on finding the source of the light.
And as I drove in that direction,
I couldn't see the light flashing.
I couldn't see the light flashing in the sky.
Once I left my driveway,
I couldn't see the light flashing anymore.
But I did go in that direction
and I saw the moon shining down on me,
you know,
the hollow moon, the fake moon.
Is the moon flat? I don't know.
So, I don't know.
But there was a white light quickly flashing in the same location this morning for, I think
this video is like 40 seconds. I don't know how long it was going. I don't know how long it went on.
I got my truck and I left. But it got me, it got me thinking about a lot of different things.
And I thought it was just kind of an interesting add-on.
to what I was planning on talking to you about today,
the spilling over of realms,
and made me feel like the stranger things was coming.
You know?
Like, we're all the main character of our story.
You know, like we all live our lives.
We know ourselves the best,
better than our spouses, better than our kids.
We all know ourselves the best.
We are the main character of our story.
And so in this morning,
I see this weird light flashing in the sky
and I'm like,
the demigorging's coming for me.
The demigorgings coming for me today.
And so I went back in the house
and I got my 10 millimeter instead of my 9.
I'm just kidding, I didn't do that.
I have my 9.
Because I wasn't planning on shooting the demigorging today.
You know, I was just like, if it comes, it comes.
You know, it is.
Well, a 10 millimeter take care of a demigorg.
I don't know. I don't know. I believe it could take care of a dog, man. It can take care of bears,
they say. So that's my thought process. So it made me feel like the stranger things was, you know,
coming upon me to take me to the upside down. But I made it to the office to come in here and bore you
for the next hour and a half. Life is fun, guys. Life is fun. You got to have some fun. You got to have some
with it. Is it serious? Absolutely. Do we have days that suck? Yes. But let's try to have some fun with life.
You know, like as we're discovering the new realities that we discover together, can we have some
fun with it? Can we just relax? Enjoy the process. Enjoy the unfolding journey around us.
Was it stranger things ascending upon me? No, I don't think so. But it's fun to think like that.
It's fun to think about it, especially when you know that the upside down is actually real.
There is another realm that pierces through and things come through.
And then you see these lights coming in on the sky.
The morning is just supposed to go and talk about the spilling over of the realms and the realm invaders.
It's fun to think that as the main character of the story, that stranger things is coming from me.
I'm 11.
I'm 12.
I'm the next chapter.
I already have the shaved head.
I'm 12.
What say you?
I'm 12.
Guys, this is fun.
This is fun.
It's meant to be fun.
It's meant to be relaxing.
A wake-up show where we talk,
have a good time,
and we don't take ourselves too seriously.
And I hope you guys had a good time today with me.
I'm going to start winding this down
because I got a long,
journey ahead of me today and today starts my journey over the next month and some weeks of
just absolute chaos. To you, life will be normal. The show is going to show up on Tuesdays.
The show is going to show up on Thursdays if you're a member. Everything's going to be normal.
I might miss a Wednesday morning show possibly, but I'll try not to. I might do it from the road.
But for me, just know if it seems normal in the show, my life is chaos. Chaos. Okay?
but I asked for it and I like it.
And today it all starts.
So I hope you guys had fun with me today.
I hope you guys, you know, maybe some things I said made you think a little bit,
made you laugh a little bit, maybe I bored you a little bit.
Early morning shows, hopefully it's not boring.
You all need to wake up.
You know, Miranda's driving to work.
Can't bore Miranda or else she'll become the next point.
portal bridge on a highway somewhere like in Ohio. Can't have that now. We have to,
we have to keep people engaged. So hopefully I did that today on Weird Wednesday wake up.
I'm feeling it out. You guys who have been with me for a long time, know that doing live shows
is something I've never done consistently. I've done it every once in a while, but consistently,
consistently, consistently no. There's always this little small voice in the back of my head. Can you
really talk that long without talking to anybody else? Apparently I can. Apparently I can.
It's a gift. What can I say? It's a gift. But I am filling it out. And I'm trying to learn as I go.
I hope the show gets better over time. If it doesn't, I don't think it's absolutely a terrible show already.
So that's a plus. But I'm hoping it gets better over time, whether it's through better technology.
so it looks better, sounds better, I talk better, I share things better, always got to look to be better.
That's how you grow. And I hope you guys are growing too on this hump day. Let me just tell you this.
This is how I used to view my work week. Not so much anymore because I don't punch a clock.
So I literally, from the time I wake up, for the time I go to bed, I'm thinking about you. Right?
but when I was a truck driver, this is how I got through my week.
Monday, actually it was Tuesday was the worst day of the week for me.
So on Mondays, I would come into work fresh.
I just had two days off, chill and relaxing, not thinking about driving a truck.
I was good Monday.
Let's have some fun. Be positive.
Beginning of the week.
The problems haven't arrived yet.
That's a good thing.
Tuesday sucks because I'm tired from Monday.
And I got to go through Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday until I get those two days off again.
Tuesday sucks. Tuesday sucks.
But Wednesday's hump day.
I'm halfway through the nonsense. I just made it through those two days.
I'm halfway. I got to do two more and I'm good.
Like Wednesday doesn't even exist in my mind. It's like a skip day for me.
That's the way I looked at. I got through two terrible days.
All I got to do is two more.
I'm not even going to include Wednesday.
Not going to include it.
Wednesday doesn't even mean anything to me.
It's hump day.
And then Thursday was payday.
Every Thursday I got paid.
That's like a freaking holiday.
I was excited.
I put all that hard work in last week.
I got to see the fruits of my labor and know that I went through four days so far this week.
And I'm going to have another one of those coming the following week on the next Thursday.
Thursday was a holiday.
I dig it.
Friday.
I just got to, you know, drag my rear end through one more day and I get two days off.
Like Friday, nobody's even working Friday.
We're just kind of coasting.
Like, we just did this for four days.
We're going to coast through the rest of it.
It's not at work.
It's just nobody wants to work Friday.
Everybody's trying to go home early.
As a trucker and stuff, you know people are trying to get out early and stuff.
They're rushing.
So them rushing to get their stuff shipped meant I got to get out earlier because they're not dragging their feet.
So really, I only worked one day a week.
And it was Tuesdays.
Tuesdays I had to work.
All the other days, I had some weird psychological thing that helped me get through the week.
And so I'm trying to be one of those weird psychological things that help you get through
the week on Wednesdays.
It's hump day.
It's wake up Wednesday or weird Wednesday wake up with Tony on hump day.
This day doesn't even exist.
It doesn't even exist.
Okay, it's not real.
It's, you got through two days, you got two more, today doesn't exist, especially once this
live broadcast ends, it's over, relax, it's hump day.
And that's how Tony saw it driving truck, but not anymore.
Now I just, I constantly just think about work all the time.
I wake up at 3 o'clock in the morning and come in here and talk to you guys so then I can
go travel and do more work and it's just all the time.
but it's better than driving truck.
I'll tell you that much.
And you guys being here and tuning into the show on Tuesdays, Thursdays, weird Wednesdays,
and all the other crap that I do afford me the ability to have fun and pursue this stuff
and see what we can do, you know?
And that's what I said last week, you know,
when we broke 100,000 subscribers on the YouTube channel,
which, by the way, last I checked, I mean, I think we grew like 1,500 subscribers
of the last week. We're really cooking, so thank you. But when we passed 100,000 subscribers last
week, I told you all, and I try to tell people as much as I can, like the show, like, I get patted
on the back for breaking 100,000 subscribers. But I don't break 100,000 subscribers if you guys don't
show up. That's just facts. If you guys aren't here, I don't break 100,000 subscribers.
So if I had a hat on, I tip it to you.
I appreciate you.
Without you guys, shows doesn't exist.
Literally.
You guys make the show.
Without you, there is no show.
It takes two of us.
It takes me to put crap out there.
It takes you guys to consume it.
If you're not consuming, is it really a show?
No, it's a Wednesday.
It doesn't exist.
So thanks guys for tuning in.
Oh, I see here.
Last thing, I was just going to close.
it out here. But last thing, we got Donna saying, by the way, how's your eye, Tony? Oh, man,
Donna's trying to extend the show another 45 minutes. All right, my eye doesn't hurt anymore.
I went to the eye doctor two weeks ago. So I did weird Wednesday wake up, told you about the eye
the next day. My wife made an appointment for me to go to the doctor because she said it was an
emergency. And so they got me in. And I'm talking to the doctor and he's seen pretty chill.
You know, he's a good dude. I like that guy. Can't remember his name.
but he's a good guy. Good guy. And he's like, yeah, it's probably nothing. He probably just bruise,
you know, bruise, bruise. He analyzes my eye, does his little stuff that looks into your eye,
lights and everything. He sits back and he's like, well, you have a damaged retina. I think he said
retina. It might have been cornea. One of the two. Retina or cornea. It's damaged. That's all I heard.
As soon as he said damaged, I just blanked out. I was like, oh, no, it's damaged.
And he said, it's not too big of a deal.
He said, but it is definitely damaged.
If anybody hasn't heard the story, long story short,
my son came up to me, point blank,
shot me in the eye with a Nerf gun,
and it hurt real bad, real bad.
Like I fell on the floor.
I didn't cry.
Not from my boy.
Save that for later.
But I did fall on the floor,
and it hurt like crazy.
It hurt like crazy.
And he felt terrible.
It felt terrible.
is he didn't know. Like he didn't, like I had a blanket over my face because he was shooting me.
So I didn't want to get shot in the eye. So I said, I'm going to put a blanket over my face.
And so he thought that man, he could come right up to me and shoot me in the head. And just so having to shoot me right in the eye.
And it hurt. So I went to a doctor. He told me I have damaged whatever, whatever. And he goes, we're going to give you some steroids.
He said in two weeks, if you're still feeling pain, you got to come in. And so fortunately, I don't feel pain in.
more. I got those steroids in me and about two days later the pain was gone and we're able to
see fine. And he said to me that the only thing that's probably going to be long lasting,
he said, is in about 30 years from now, I'll have an increased likelihood of developing glaucoma.
And I told him, I said, 30 years from now, I'm not going to remember having this incident
happening anyway. So I'm just going to have glaucoma. I'm not going to have anything to blame.
I'm not going to remember that my kid shot me in the eye.
30 years from now. I barely remembered it now until Donna had to remind me that I got shot in the eye.
War. The wars I go through with my children.
Anyways, they're great kids. I love them. I didn't sleep great last night. I think it's probably
why I woke up even before 3 o'clock this morning because before I even went to bed last
night, my daughter is standing in her doorway crying. She's sick. And so my wife's sick.
And so I was like, well, I guess that means I'm doing this.
And so I had to stay with my daughter and I slept in her bed last night.
So I'm crammed in this little kid bed as an almost 40-year-old man with a bad back.
I didn't sleep very well at all.
So it's just time to wake up, to be honest with you.
That's why I came in so early.
Nah, I was planning on coming in early, but my alarm didn't even wake me up today.
So it is what it is.
Kids will be kids.
Blessings, little blessings they are.
All right, guys. I appreciate you. We're going to wind the show down. I hope you guys enjoyed it. The ramblings of Merck the jerk. It's a fun time. I really enjoy it. This is something I didn't think I'd enjoy as much as I do. And so, thanks for tuning in. I'm stunned that we had almost 300 people showing up before 6 o'clock this morning, I think it was. So what a crowd.
What a crowd you are.
If you're just tuning in thinking that,
oh, weird Wednesday's starting in the 7 o'clock hour,
not today.
Not today.
Today we are wrapping it up.
And you can watch it on replay.
Guys, I appreciate every single one of you.
You're all great.
Keep being awesome.
And I'll keep putting out shows as much as I can.
All right, guys.
Until next time, I'll see you.
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.
Let your spirit show.
Today with a smile, stop.
Embrace the morning, let your heart take flight.
Weird Wednesday, wake up, everything's all right.
Wake up, it's Wednesday, feel the morning light.
The world's a big difference
Something feels just right

And let your heart take flight
Weird Wednesday
Wake up everything's all right
