When I was a truck driver, Wednesday was my favorite day of the week. Welcome to the second week edition of Weird Wednesday Wakeup, friends. I am Tony Merkel, host of the Confessionals podcast, and now the new live show, Weird Wednesday Wakeup. for joining me here, everybody. We have about 100 people, 108 people, actually, to be exact, here live with us, joining in all over the globe on all platforms such as YouTube, Facebook,

X, and Instagram. I'm not sure if we went live on Instagram last week, but we are live on Instagram this week. So thank you very much for tuning in, my friends, my family, those who've been riding with me for a long time, and those who are new to the process, welcome to the weird Listen, I should call this show Weird Mind Tony. It just doesn't sound as good. But this is just really how my mind works and you're going to be exposed to it on a hopefully weekly basis. I can't promise you I will do this every Wednesday because I do have a day job as in the Confessionals podcast. And sometimes work must prevail.

But I'm trying to make this into work as well. So smash the like button. Hit share on everything and anything you could possibly can. This is Weird Wednesday Wake Up with Tony Merkel. Guys, thanks for joining me. Let me tell you, we're going to start off with some quick hitter announcements. First of all, I dropped the ball on announcing it on the public episodes of the confessionals, and I will announce it here because we got an email from somebody who

apparently didn't get the email. Unfortunately, Squachella has been canceled. A few weeks ago, it had gotten canceled. Outside of my hands and everybody else's hands, there were things that happened that prevents the event from going on. And so the venue sent out the email and anybody who had purchased tickets, the venue sent that email out to you to let you know what happened, to what was going on. And they refunded you. So if you were somebody who was planning on going to Squachella, you can not anymore. But I got good news for you. I'm still doing events. And we'll talk about those events here in a second. But I also want to let you know one other cancellation that has come through. Unfortunately, today was supposed to be the day that Russell,

a cord and I were supposed to be going out into the woods to hunt dogman and Bigfoot and any kind of portal and monster we could get our hands on. But unfortunately, I got a text message from Russell a couple nights ago and he and his lady are sick with the sickness. I really don't know the rules when it comes to streaming live on platforms. So you guys can connect the dots. Please don't put it in the chat because I don't know what the algorithms read and what they do, but you guys get the hint. He got sick. He can't come out. And so we're rescheduling that as well. Wish him well. Give him prayers. And I'm sure he'll have a speedy recovery and we can hit the woods, wrangle a dog man, and bring it into the studio and go live for you. That'd be really nice.

So those are the sad things, the good things. We are going to be. in person at the Smoky Mountain Bigfoot Conference. That's going to be on July 27th, 2024. I'm going to be hosting a roundtable discussion about Bigfoot. And it is going to be the first segment of the day, I believe. So you got to arrive early. You got to get your butts in the seats because we're going to start off with a bang. We're going to have people on stage talking about Bigfoot.

We're going to get weird. We're going to get woo. We're going to get physical. We're going to have a little bit of a debate, maybe. I'm not sure what's going to happen, but it's going to be a good time. And so if you are within a few hours of Gatlinburg, Tennessee, join me on July 27th at the Smoky Mountain Bigfoot Conference as I go live on stage with my friends, talking Bigfoot for about an hour. And then I will be around for the rest of the day at my booth, shaking hands, kissing babies, or whatever that's saying is. Also, on August 1st, I will be in Charlotte at Armed Media Conference. The links for these things are in the description of today's show if you want to get tickets to the event.

Now, Armed Media is a Christian media conference that I have been invited to speak at as I am a Christian in media. and I'm going to be joined by people that I feel like are way out of my league. And so I am honored to be sharing the stage with people such as John Maxwell, who I have learned a great deal about leadership from through listening to his audiobooks while I was a truck driver, never planning to be a podcaster. 360-degree leader was the book that I listened to on repeat. So I'm excited to share the stage with him and other people. people and have a good time. I was originally going to be there for August 1st and then drive from

Charlotte to Nashville for Squatchella. But since I cannot go to Nashville for Squatchella, I told them you got me for three days. So I will be there for three days. I'll do my job on Thursday and then breathe easy for Friday and Saturday and join the process. So if you want to join me at any of those events, I will be around. It's about a week period from July 27th to August 1st, not even a week, but it's going to be a good time. If you're interested, links are in the description. I would love to meet you. I would love to hang out with you. I would love to smile for pictures. Whatever you want me to do, as long as it's legal and ethical, let's go. All right, friends, listen, anybody who is,

you know, maybe a parent, somebody who has kids at home, you know it's a jury. You know, it's a You know it's a process. You know, sometimes you can expect the unexpected. Just let you guys know.

And it's a little ironic. I was downstairs in living room. It was Saturday. And I typically have a difficult time taking a load off. That's just kind of how I am. I, listen, doing what I do for a living, yes, it is work. That's why I have an office outside my house. It's why I come in here like it's a job and I work all day because it takes a lot of effort to do what we do. A lot of background stuff. But I'd be lying. to you if I said it wasn't fun. I really do enjoy my job and there are little nuances that I can't stop doing even though I'm not at work working. And one of those things is doing show art. I just

absolutely love doing it. And so I'll work on weeks in advance of show art just because it's fun. But Saturday, I decided I was going to take a load off. And I was going to intentionally just relax. I went down in the basement where the playroom is with the kids and turned on the TV. Their turn and watching TV. We're playing. And my son gets out the Nerf guns. And I was like, it's showtime. Let's go. So, you know, we load up the pockets with extra Nerf bullets. And we set up the boundaries. And we're going back and forth. And I'm like acting like I'm like Rambo hunting, like, just the, I'm out there hunting the, the predator, you know, like I'm out there just going ham on the kid. And he's accusing me of cheating and all that stuff. He got frustrated, so we took a load off and we

chilled. And he comes over to me with his gun and he starts shooting me, point blank in my arm and my leg. And these little Nerf guns, I mean, like, they're just like, you know, the styrofoam bullets, but the tips are like a soft, like, it's like a soft plastic. It's not hard, but it's not exactly soft either. So when it hits you, it stings a little bit. And so I'm sitting there just kind of like, I was watching something on the TV. And I just wanted to make sure that he doesn't, you know, catch the face, you know, the moneymaker. And so I've been telling people this story and I've been lying a little bit because I've been telling people that I took a blanket and put it over my head just so that to protect my face. The reality is I'm going to tell you live here on the show.

It wasn't a blanket. My daughter has this little slip-on thing that she wears to pretend to be a mermaid. And it goes from a waist down and it covers her legs. And that was available. So I grabbed that and I put it on my head. And so I was wearing mermaid flippers on my head. And I told him, I said, I'm putting this over my head and covering my face so that you don't accidentally hit in the face. But you can keep shooting me. It's fine. he misunderstood and he thought that that meant go ahead and shoot daddy in the face point blank. And so I don't even see this thing coming and he comes over, puts the gun right at my face, and he doesn't know exactly where he's shooting. He can't see. But that bullet shoots me directly in my right eye.

And that hurt like crazy. And so I dropped to the ground. I yell. He's upset. He's crying. And I kind of just try to rub it off. And that pain lasted for quite some time. And I decided to get up, tell him, hey, buddy, it is okay.

I'll be fine. I'll work off the pain, you know? Just like kind of how I tell him, hey, man, rub it off. So that pain has not gone away. and homeboy needs to go to an eye doctor now because the light sensitivity that I'm starting to experience with my eye is on another level. Last night I was in a dark room in our bedroom and Lindsay came out of the bathroom and that light shot into my eye and it hurt like crazy. It hurt like crazy. And I woke up this morning and my eye, my right eye was just completely bloodshot. It's cleared up since

but it looked almost discolored, almost like a brown. And so I don't know if we busted a bunch of blood vessels in my eye or what. I feel like I can still see well okay with it, but it hurts. If I move my eye too fast side to side or the lights change too bright or too dim and the dilation, my eyes throbbing. So pray for me because hopefully I do not have to lose my eye. that would be crazy. I can still do the show. Wouldn't that be something though? Hunting monsters with one eye. What a story I could have. How'd you lose your eye? He's the monster hunter with one eye.

He didn't always have one eye. What happened? Well, I was out in the woods. I came across a dog man. And we got into it. He got away. Took my eye with, but I got this leg. I don't know. I could come up with some kind of story. but I'll tell you what I was thinking about this morning and it just kind of hit me what goes around comes around 20 years later I was thinking about this morning as I was looking at my bloodshot eye

and how I was thinking how I'm going to lose my eye and I might die and I remembered a time that I almost killed my wife before we were married in similar circumstances. And I'm going to tell you this story, and then we'll get into the topics of the day.

I was 18 years old. It was the first summer that we started dating. And I was over at her house and like a good Pennsylvania redneck country kid, I show up in basketball shorts and cut off T-shirt because you never know when you're going to actually play ball. And I have a BB gun in my back car, in the back seat of my car. Why? I don't know. You have BB guns.

and I pull it out and I'm shooting it around her house, you know, trying to be Mr. Cool guy. And it was one of those, the rifle ones where you pump to 10, you know, yeah, pump that thing up. And it really, the stronger to pump, the harder to blast. And I pumped that thing all the way up to 10. But before I did, I pulled it back and I looked to make sure it wasn't loaded, chamber it. It's not loaded. I pumped that thing up to 10. boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom.

And my wife, at the time, my new girlfriend was shooting hoops in her driveway. And I said to her, if you miss this next shot, I'm going to shoot you. You know, I'm just playing around. And she yells at me and says, no. And she throws the basketball at me. And I was like, oh, that's it. I'm going to shoot you. And I walk over to her.

I take the barrel of this air rifle that's pumped to 10 and I put it on her temple and in that brief moment I thought the air that comes out of this might hurt her face a rare time that I think ahead and so I lowered the pistol

or the air rifle and I pointed at her thigh point blank I'm talking like an inch off her thigh I pulled the trigger. I don't know how this happened to this day. I checked to make sure it wasn't loaded. But when I pulled that trigger, a BB shot into my wife's leg.

And she freaked out. And I was like, well, that's a little dramatic. And then I see the blood. And I was like, holy crap. And so we spent a few minutes popping a BB out of her thigh that was embedded, probably, I don't know, a half inch or something, I don't know how deep it went. But what makes it worse is that this whole scene unfolds while a neighbor kid next door is in his driveway shooting hoops.

He sees the whole thing. And I can't help but think what the police report would say if I didn't have this moment of clarity, wisdom, maybe the Holy Spirit came in and said, boy, do you want to ruin your life. But I can't remember, I can't imagine what that police report would have said because that neighbor boy saw it all unfold and he thought I did it on purpose. I had to have explained to him that I didn't want to actually shoot her. And she still married me. She's still married. And I swear, she's like, after that, she didn't break up with me. She married me. That's keeper. That was 20 years ago. We've been married for 17 years, happily married, and I've never

pointed a gun at another human being that wasn't a Nerf gun. Ever again. Never, never, never. I'm neurotic about it. I double-check barrels. I unload clips and magazines. I am very cautious with these kind of things these days. But yes, what goes around comes around, right? I almost shot my wife's eye out, or more, 20 years ago. And here we are with a six-year-old son who might have made his father go blind. The world will know soon enough. So that's a little bit of an update in my life. What's going on in your lives? Are you guys having a great Wednesday? It's 930 on the East Coast, 925 to be exact, on the West Coast. It's 625 in the morning. If you're on the West Coast and you're watching right now, you might be getting ready for work.

in your car driving in L.A. traffic. Maybe you're on the East Coast in the Philadelphia area at 926 in the morning and you're a truck driver for a company called Pitt Ohio Express sitting on the Skook Hill trying to get into Philadelphia to start your day of chaos. Well, friends, I think transportation is absolutely going to be chaotic in the future. but all in attempts to decrease the chaos. You got to go through chaos to have peace, I'd say. And I feel like we are in the middle of a transportation revolution in the beginning stages. Many of you know and some of you may not know, but probably about four years ago now, I'd say.

four or five years ago, I started a podcast with my dad called Hammer Lane Legends. It's still going today. I don't host it anymore. My dad hosted it with a co-worker. Go ahead and check that out if you'd like. But him and I did about 100 episodes before I left the show.

I moved to Tennessee. I was trying to really focus in on Merkel Media. And so I had to move on from the show. But before I left the show, him and I would have some hot debates while I was a truck driver still after I had quit truck driving and a common theme of discussion

that would come up that him and I would argue about and he would just sit there shaking his head irritated because he was taking offense to something that wasn't meant to be offensive but I think he felt like I was trying to take his job away from him. I was telling him that driverless vehicles are right around the corner and there's nothing you can do to stop it.

And he would tell me he doesn't think so. How logistically could that be? How could you possibly have a whole civilization with driverless vehicles? What if there's an accident? And I said to him, what if there's an accident? What if these things have an accident

once a year. Once a year in every city, there's one accident that results in a huge pile up and the loss of life, the life of two people, three people. Still on average, you are now saving lives. And I'm not a proponent of this necessarily. I'm just speaking facts. This is what's coming. And I would tell him, they're doing the numbers, their number crunching. They are looking at it from a perspective of, yeah, even if these do glitch and there's an accident and people die, we are overall saving lives by doing this and taking the steering wheel out of people's hands. And I would tell him, my vision of this was that when you have driverless vehicles and you would see a transition in this, where you would have stoplights and other devices at intersections.

But eventually, the stoplights would be gone. The traffic lights would be gone. The stop signs would be gone. The speed limit signs would be gone. And every vehicle would be driverless. And these cars would have the ability to communicate with each other. So they know where each other are at all times. Every car on the road within a certain vicinity knows where every other vehicle is at all

times. That's number one. Also, do you even need at that point traffic intersection lights or anything to direct traffic? If every vehicle knows where all vehicles are at all times and they are constantly communicating with each other, do you even need anything at an intersection to make sure there's not an accident? Now, I'm not sure if you would need something or not. But back then, I would say at every intersection, there will be beacons that send out signals and communicate with the vehicles when each one can go. But I'm not sure if that's even necessary. So I would have these conversations with my dad on Hammer Lane Legends. And he would get irritated because he thinks I'm trying to kick him out his job.

And then to make matters worse, I'd show him like Elon Musk's tractor trailer truck that he was planning to come out with. know if he's ever come out with it, but that was going to be driverless and electric and all that stuff. And he's like, I just don't see it. I just don't see it. And I'm like, well, it's coming, man. Well, here we are. A few years later, I'm no longer hosting that show and the conversation ensues because we are here. I have seen different vehicles on Instagram when you're doing the good old doom scrolling when you're sitting on the throne. And what did we ever do? before social media and cell phones. I'll tell you what.

Number two went a lot faster. Anyways, I digress. Let me get back on track. So while you're on social media and you're looking through different videos, I often, for me at least, my algo shows me things that knows I'll like. And it will show me things like

people getting in, they'll call like an Uber or a taxi. I don't know what they're calling for this, but they'll get in the vehicle and they'll be like, oh, wow, while they're making a video, you know they knew what was happening. But anyways, they get in and there's no driver. This car pulls out to pick them up from, say, the airport to take them to their destination and there's no driver in the car. Now, there's drivers on the road today. I drive. I would like to say I'll never own a vehicle that will drive me around without me driving it. But I can't say that because, one, my mind changes on things all the time. I might see something like, ooh, that's fancy and cool.

And maybe I won't have a choice one day. Maybe they'll outlaw the driving aspect and you'll have to do it. I won't get into government overreach today, though. That's for a 1984 episode in the future maybe. But they get in the car and there's a driverless vehicle that's picking them up and they trusted enough to get in and have it taken to their destination. I haven't seen one that has an accident and kills the passenger. I haven't seen one that has a compartment that opens up and holds a person hostage with an AI gun, Stingray, Nephilim Blaster 2000. But you see these things and

you're like, well, it's here. And I've refrained. I've refrained from sending these videos to my father. but the time is coming that I'm going to start egging him on and hounding him with this again just to let him know what's up. Friends, we got an interesting video here today. I saw this video and I found it telling for many reasons. And I think my father would like this video and hated at the same time. We have possibly the first ever driverless vehicle pull over by a police officer. Let's check it out. Born, I got a unmanned vehicle that was kind of taken off from me.

It's a Waymo car. Yeah, stopped. It's 92 Adam Sam, or 92 Adam 2, Sam Paul. And there's no driver. So your car here drove into oncoming lanes of traffic. Okay. I don't go ahead to take a little bit of that right now. Yeah, there's like a little bit of a construction area.

And it went into opposing lanes of traffic, which is real bad. Yeah, your car drove into oncoming traffic. What is going on? We are just starting this journey, friends. We are just starting this journey. You know, I feel like this might have happened before, because the way he handled it was like, we got another one, boys.

It seemed like he was talking to people who understood what was going on. And he hops over to the car. The windows all come down. There's no driver in there. He repeats that several times. And he says to the guy that's on the other end of it, he goes, yeah, your car drove into oncoming traffic.

And he goes, okay, I'll take a look at that for you. What are you going to take a look at, my friend? Are you going to verify that? I imagine you have videos on there. What are you going to do? What are the fines for something like that? I wonder if there is going to be regulation coming out here in the future where these driverless vehicles are maybe held to a higher standard

than us human beings, us plebes. I mean, think about it. If the driverless vehicles are supposed to be so amazing and safe, then they should be held to a higher standard when they mess up. And so the companies that run these, I imagine, are going to have to have some seriously hefty insurance because the fines coming in will probably be in the tens of maybe even hundreds of thousands of dollars because of what do you value life at? What is the value of life?

reckless driving by a human being on drugs or alcohol can see a long time prison sentence. Let's just say, I don't know what it would be, but let's just say it's six months. Let's say it's a six-month prison sentence. That person is pulled out of their life and put in a jail cell for six months for a DWI or DUI or DWI, or DWI, both of them, actually. driving under the influence and driving while intoxicated. But say they spend six months in jail, they're pulled out of their life, that's six months of not working. Say that person makes, I don't know, let's just give them a good salary of $100,000 a year.

So $50,000 they have lost. So if that's the punishment for somebody who, you know, gets caught doing something, they shouldn't be doing. What's the punishment for a driverless vehicle that isn't supposed to have these issues? What's the fine for something like that? I bet you there's going to be regulation moving forward in the future and probably in states like mine, Tennessee and other states like that to be the first ones to move on the heavier punishments. But that is the worst thing come true for many of you, myself included. This officer pulls over a driverless vehicle running on AI and tons of cameras and technology.

It does not know the difference between a normal roadway and a construction zone and goes into oncoming traffic in a construction zone. Now, I don't know what the construction zone looked like, but I know what construction zones look like. I've driven through many of them as a truck driver. Let me just put it in the truck driver terms. If you're going down a cattle shoot in a tractor trailer, if you don't know what a cattle shoot is, it's pretty much like you got the cement medians on both sides of your vehicle. It's tight because, say, they're rebuilding a bridge,

and they're doing one side at a time, and you've got four lanes of traffic, two going one way, two going the other way, and now you're down to one lane, one going each way, and they're cattle shoots. imagine a tractor trailer in a cattle shoot and there's an AI vehicle coming directly for you. There's no room to move. That's a nightmare for everybody.

A nightmare. When you're in a tractor trailer going down a cattle shoot, I've never gotten out and looked. You know, I've never had the opportunity to be stuck in traffic in a cattle shoot so I could get out my truck and look. But when you're looking in the mirrors, because you're constantly, looking in your mirrors when you're going through a cattle shoot driving a 53-foot trailer and a rig that's probably about 15 feet itself. It looks like you have about a foot or two of space on each side. There's no escape route. And so I would say that these driverless vehicles have some work to do. They have some work to do. They need to work out some of the

technology and reconfigure the algorithms that the AIs are using, maybe add a few more cameras, update Google Maps once a day, because these things are probably running off Google Maps or something of that nature. And so when the roads are changing through construction, there needs to be some kind of update to that

on a daily basis, maybe even an hourly basis. There's a lot of things to think about logistically when it comes to this stuff. But we are here, friends. We are here in a future time where cars drive themselves. There is no debating it being something coming. We are here and there will be more. They're not going to get less just like everything else. When there's technology advancements, it does not go backwards unless you're going to the moon.

If you're going to the moon, you can lose that technology. You go to the moon in the 1960s with paperclip, not the operation, but literally paperclip technology. And you can forget how to make that technology. Then you can go backwards. But every other time, friends, that one excluded, you don't go back in technology. So this is something that is here and it is going to continue. I trust it's going to be safe at some point. generally speaking safe. I think it's safe now. I don't think that we have to worry about these

vehicles crashing into people on a daily basis and creating chaos outside of the fact of them being hacked, which is another thing I worry about. And you should too. Because, you know, hacking happens every day. How often do we see a notification come up saying that so-and-so bank had 50,000 of their customers' accounts hacked. And everybody panics. Is that my bank? Is my account hacked? Down to social media is being hacked.

Our good friend Wes Ghermer at Sasquatch Chronicles no longer has an Instagram because of that. Somebody hacked it, held it for ransom, and it is now gone. He had over 40,000 followers on Instagram, and it is now, poof, gone because of hacking. Now, if you think that hacking is going to not have, on AI driverless vehicles, at least attempted, you got another thing coming. That's a whole other department that these places need to have, right? Maybe the insurance companies will open up sections

of their companies that fight the hacking. So we offer you insurance in case there's something bad that happens for an extra, you know, half a million a year will also offer you protection against hacking, not just against accidents, but hacking. whole new industry is created. But I think generally speaking, we don't have to worry about driving today. But these kind of things are coming. They are here and they're going to get more. I was going to say worse, but that gives it a negative connotation

that I'm not trying to do on this happy, weird Wednesday wake up. Wake up, friends, whether you're sitting in traffic or sipping a cup of coffee on the couch, eating a bowl of cereal, brushing your daughter's naughty hair from a night of sleep, wake up with Tony on Weird Wednesday wake up. We're talking the transportation revolution. And today, this week's episode is brought to you by merkmerch.com. Go ahead and get your Merk merch.

Always on the Hunt t-shirt, the Bigfoot edition I'm wearing right now. It is a hot seller. In fact, this color, the light olive with the Bigfoot, is our number one selling t-shirt, even more so against the logo shirt, which I personally want to take offense to outside of the fact that it's all mine. So thank you for going to Merkmerch.com and purchasing off of that website and supporting the new Merkle Media apparel line. More designs coming.

In fact, we are launching production this week, if not today. Ooh, it might be today that we're launching the new design, which is going to be a mothman design. Terror in the Skies, The Confessionals Edition. I love this shirt, and we are putting it in production, and it will be premiered on the website soon, and it will be in person at the Smoking Mountain Bigfoot Conference. So if you like this shirt and you want to get yours,

come on out to the Smoky Mountain Bigfoot Conference and you can get it from me in person and maybe we can take pictures together. Smoking Mountain Bigfoot Conference, June 27th. I'll be there with these shirts. So, friends, it doesn't end there because we're talking about the future of transportation. We're talking about things that we thought were sci-fi, science fiction, turned reality quite quickly.

And what is a good transportation show without talking about the true future of transportation, which is, of course, UFOs? There is an anonymous person who recently has submitted their account to the speaking slowly because I cannot remember the acronym. What is the acronym? Not Mufon. It is the... Starts with an N.

I cannot remember, my goodness. Here we go. N-U-F-O-R-C. National UFO Reporting Center. New Fork? Is that how we pronounce it? New Fork? But an anonymous person came forward to Newfork.

We're going to call it Newfork on today's Weird Wednesday. If it's not accurate, guess what? It's weird. So that's what we're saying. But an anonymous person came forward to Newfork to give them their accounts of what they know about the Roswell crash. Now, the Roswell crash is something that people will say that the whole thing is fake, that there was never anything, ever. There was a made-up story. There are still people who, that the normies, we're not the normies, we're the weird ones, but the normies, the people who don't look in this stuff, they're like, wasn't that an hot air balloon though?

But the true, the real ones know that before the hot air balloon story came out, there was an actual news reporting of a flying saucer that had crashed and that bodies were available, available, like we could purchase them. Not available. That's probably a poor choice of words. but there were bodies present at this crash site. And then that quickly got covered up and the hot air balloon story came into full swing and effect that carried us for 70 plus years. Do you believe the hot air balloon?

Do you believe that that is the mode of transportation that the government uses back then? Probably doing experiments and stuff like that. It probably made sense from back then. But we know that there's. more to it than that. And this anonymous person came forward to confirm what we already know. And I find interesting and funny with this story. And we'll get to it here in a second. But again, just like last week, we have somebody who is talking like this is like hot take stuff. And again, I might literally just be so like jaded from what I do on a daily basis that I'm like,

come on, man. You think that this is like groundbreaking? Listen to the confessionals. But this guy comes forward and he says that now we don't know his name. The Newfork doesn't know his name. They're trying to track him down because I mean if he is for real like you know, you at least want to talk to the guy.

But he says he doesn't tell you his background. He doesn't tell you anything. So on the scale of 1 to 10 drop it in the chat. On a scale of of one to ten, how authentic do you think this guy is really? If he's anonymous, reporting it anonymously, saying he has access to this information, but doesn't even give his credentials. I mean, come on, man.

But hey, there's a news article, so we're going to talk about it. Because there is one interesting thing in here that he mentions that carries us into another topic of a conversation with transportation. But the idea of futuristic transportation back in the 1940s, what was it, 1947 or 48? I always get those years confused, but I think it was 47 when the crash happened. In 48, 1984 came out. And in 48 World War II ended, or wasn't 1947? 1948, Israel became a country.

A lot of things happened in that time period. If you want to know, if you want to look at history and say what was a turning point, the years, 1947, 1948 were huge turning points for so many reasons. So many books came out that carries today, so much information. 1947, let's go with 1947, Roswell Crash Happens. And this man says that he was privy to information and pictures. And he has seen the alien bodies in the pictures. And he describes the angle of the pictures and the people in the, in the, in the

pictures, and he says that there's name tags, but he doesn't remember what the name tags were because he was so focused on the alien body. And he describes the alien body lightly in this article that I was reading in the express.co.uk. If I remember, which I won't, I'll put the link out there for you. However, he's describing these bodies. He describes the crash site. He describes that the saucer had crashed into a rock, I imagine a boulder of some kind. I don't recall him saying how large the craft was, how large the bodies were in relation to the people in the picture, if there was a size comparison available. But one thing that he says here, and I want to read to you, is it looked like melted striations

running down from the pen or whatever was he was holding. I'm going to read this as it's written. I assume this is a transcript from maybe a voicemail that was sent in because the reason why I won't even consider reading this whole article is because it reads like that. He continues,

there was some space between the two officers and the little space on each side of them and a little space on each side of them. and you could clearly see the crashed UFO and the skin of the ship ripped and smashed open. Not scattered pieces, but like a wrecked car that was still together. I find it extremely interesting that he said, the skin of the ship. This is somebody who is alive today in this article. He says he's 70 years old.

and he calls it the skin, not the side, not the metal, not the wood, not the wall, not the door, not the anything. He calls it the skin of the ship. If you want to talk about future logistics, this is a huge, huge sign of where we're going when it comes to the transportation industry. And we'll get into that here in a few minutes. but I want to focus in on the fact that he called it skin. Because not too long ago, Homeboy took two weeks off from the Confessionals podcast. And I had guest hosts, and I'm going to do it again. So just be ready.

Possibly for the entire month of December. But probably not. I'll probably just do the last two weeks of the year because I want to. I want to spend time with my family. And I want Jack to take a break and go to Pennsylvania because he doesn't have a wife and kids down here. So he can go visit family or whatever. But not long ago, we had Joel Thomas host the week of Christmas on the confessionals. He did the public show and the member show.

And the week before, we had the cryptids of the corn guys. And Justin, one of the hosts on that show, is a biologist. And one of his main things that he does is he talks about UFOs being biologic. And he uses often the idea of a biological UFO that would resemble a stingray. Around that time that he started talking about this stuff, there was, I'm drawing a blank on the, let me know in the chat what this movie was called. I want to say nope. is that the name of the movie?

Nope. What was the name of that movie where they were out in the, they were out in the middle of nowhere. I forget what their dad did for living. I want to say like circus people or horse people. It was a black family and I think they raised horses and they were dealing with UFOs in the property. But as the property or as the movie unfolds,

you become very aware that these are not just crafts in the sky, but these are literally living things in the sky. UFOs biologically alive. And the whole movie is about that. And it was a fascinating movie. I enjoyed it. By the way, I want to watch more movies along the lines of what we do here on this platform. So if you have suggestions, I love dystopian movies, just to let you know, I love a good dystopian movie. I love sitting there saying, yep, that could happen. So give me some good dystopian movies or maybe TV series on Prime or Netflix, you know, those evil companies. Yes, I have subscriptions to them.

But thanks for the confirmation in the chat. The movie is Nope. It's a biological UFO and reason would believe it would have skin. We have this guy who is 70 years old, who is anonymous right now. but is on record saying that he's willing to prove his story, whether it takes a polygraph or hypnosis to go back and see what he saw and possibly even read the name tags in the pictures. So if we can find this man and actually validate what he is claiming, now we're talking groundbreaking, but until we can find this man, it is just somebody who's claiming to be 70 years old

and doesn't want to go to the grave with this story and decided to call it anonymously to Newfork and report that he has seen classified alien UFO recovery stuff from Roswell. And he describes the UFO having skin. The skin of the ship ripped and smashed open. Very, very interesting. Biological UFOs. Is that something that is real?

We have Justin talking about it, who's a biologist, and probably everybody thinks he's just a weirdo. He is weird, but he's a really smart guy, and I like him a lot. But we have Hollywood telling us biological UFOs. We have Justin from Cryptos of the Corn saying biological UFOs. We have whistleblowers talking about. UFOs and not directly saying it, but we read between the lines because we're not normies. And these whistleblowers are alluding to UFOs being interdimensional. What does that even mean?

How can we harness it for the future of transportation? But seriously, what does that even mean? And what kind of technology have we started implementing into our everyday life? Are our cell phones alien technology? Does an interdimensional UFO have biological components because it is self-willed, self-aware? Is the UFO itself the entity piercing through? Or is it a vehicle, a mode of transportation for an entity to ride in through a portal? Or is the UFO itself the portal device that is used to traverse realms?

almost like having a magical ring. You must wear the ring in order to go from one realm to the other. And when you get to the other realm, you're still wearing the ring. I'm sure that's in a movie somewhere. So is the UFO act like that? But nevertheless, in this scenario, is the UFO that comes through from another realm a biological thing? we have, I do not remember who said it, but I believe it was Jeremy Corbell, which many people have thoughts and opinions on him. There's a possibility he might be here in studio at some point

for a fun conversation. Doubtful, but possible. I believe it was him who talked about the the metal sphere UFOs that the military has been coming out with it was either him or somebody else has alluded to the fact that we were shooting down with

DEWs direct energy weapons UFOs that were coming through from other realms so they started sending these metallic looking drones to us, their UFOs.

But there are actually drones that are not manned because it was a direct response to us using DEWs on the veil-piercing UFOs.

Now, these veil-piercing UFOs, were they biological things we were shooting down? Is the UFO itself the alien? Interesting. Now, why am I talking about this is mainly because of the next thing I would like to talk to you about, which is bringing it back into the realm of scientific advancement in transportation, and what does that look like and where are we at with it?

But first, I must remind you, this episode was brought to you by Merckmerch.com. Go ahead. Check it out, Merkmerch.com. So there is a scientist. I'm sure he would not want to be called just a scientist because that sounds lame, corny, and probably almost underselling. Just like I'm finally learning that it's not a cameraman. Like Ward, who comes with us on our trips to hunt monsters and he films the whole thing. He's not a cameraman. He's a cinematographer. He's a cinematographer. is he a cameraman? Of course. Yes, that's what he is. But they prefer to be called cinematographers. So if me calling Charles Bueller, a scientist is offensive, I apologize, Charles. But you can come on my show anytime and talk to me about how I offended you. And also, your amazing advancements in

technology. Is space real? Is space real? I think Charles believes it's real. There's lots of people who want to debate if space is real, if the moon's hollow, if we've ever been to the moon, there's a dark side of the moon that operates with alien entities and government forces that kidnap people, put them into time-traveling slavery programs to put them back in their bodies 20 years prior. And they feel like nothing's ever happened other than a weird light that they saw in the sky. Lots of thoughts about space, time travel, that should not be overlooked with the interdimensional aspect. But if we're going to just go with more scientific, mainstream type of thinking,

and let's just keep the woo hard for me to say, very hard for me to do, but let's just try for a second to keep the woo out of it. all the crazy, weird mind-bending mazes we go down. Let's just try to stop it for just one second and think, scientifics, that's even a word. Because Charles Bueller has been described as somebody with his team who has discovered through no new inventions or creating anything new. but discovered a process through already known physics,

a way for us to have basically anti-gravity devices, anti-gravity ways of transportation. I don't think that is an accurate thing to say. And I don't think I've ever heard him say it. I've listened to a few of his talks while I'm feeding my chickens. I don't think it's anti-gravity. I think it's harnessing a force we've never considered harnessing for propulsion. And this, my friends, is simply static electricity.

Charles Bueller and his team, and this is literally retired trucker turned podcaster, uneducated, dropped out at college after figuring out that it wasn't meant for him. after four years of spending money at college, Tony. I'm not the brightest guy in the world, not the sharpest tool in the shed, never claim to be, and it makes me extremely uncomfortable when people allude to the idea

that I'm a groundbreaking smart guy. One person has ever done that. Nobody else really ever does. But I always remember that one person who said, you're so smart. It's not true. It's not true. So please bear with me

as I try to explain this the best I can to you and I lost my stinking note. Where is it? Here we go. Here we go. So Charles

essentially describes whatever the craft will be, whatever the physical nature of whatever we're moving is, will have a skin. around it of static electricity. Now, we know about, about name escaping me.

Bob, Bob, I got his two pictures on my wall, my office. What's his name? Boba, did the, the, worked on the UFOs at Area 51. Dach.

See, I told you I'm not that smart, my friends. You guys know who I'm talking. Lizar, thank you. Bob Lizar. We know that Bob Lizar talked about how he worked on these crafts to reverse engineer them. And essentially,

the way it works is that they have an ability to remove gravity from around the craft that allows the craft to fall into the empty void that's gravity-less. And it does it at a fast repetition that allows it to propel forward or any direction that you remove the gravity. So if you want to go right, remove the gravity from the right, and it falls to the right. And it looks like it's just shooting off real fast.

But essentially, from what I understand, that's how he describes this whole thing working. This is not that. So I don't think that Charles Bueller and his team have discovered what Bob Lazar was talking about. I think they discovered maybe, possibly, if Bob Lazar is true. Some people say that he's a sci-op, all that stuff. But say Lazar is telling the truth, this is exactly what he's gone through. Everything that he knows is true, right? Or everything that he says is true.

I think that what Charles Bueller and his team have now discovered through static electricity is the first step in the direction of what Bob Lazar was talking about him reverse engineering in Area 51. I think that is the first step. This is the first step. We are in the baby stages of that. And I think it's purely scientific. Listen, I don't think we need entities. I mean, clearly they do. And I'm doing it. I'm sorry. I'm not trying to go woo-woo. I'm going to do it real quick. clearly we have entities coming through portals and communicating with humans in this realm, taking them to other realms to communicate with them, communicating with the astral plane, trying to stop them from re-entering their body, all that crap.

We understand that and they give information. But we don't need, technically, we don't need these entities to tell us how to do this. I think eventually we'll figure out on our own. And I think this might be the very beginning stages of that. Random thought, I don't know why this popped in my head. I don't think I brought up last week. Totally off topic, but I'm going to do it anyways because I can't help myself. The Watchers, the movie The Watchers that just came out, has anybody seen it?

Because I haven't seen it yet, but I want to go see it and I will be doing in the future some kind of spoiler thing, probably, more than likely, in the sense that I won't try to spoil, but I'm going to spoil because that's just how I am. Okay. I'm going to try to break this down using AI because me and ChatGBT, GBT, had a long. session this morning of trying to dumb down this understanding for me to be able to relate to you guys. So this is what I have written down after a long process of me using the demon machine. Oh, by the way, if there's time and I remember, I got to tell you a funny story about how I've been accused recently of becoming or being an occultist. Cute story, bro, or ma'am in this case. Okay.

The technology works by using static electricity to create thrust. Be tracking. This is what I think is happening. They found a way to use the, for lack of better terms, explosion that happens during static electricity. I think they found a way to harness that as propulsion. And it's going to be on a large scale. right now it's in its infancy in baby stages. I think in the next 10 years it's going to be implemented.

If the funding is there for right now, this whole thing is privately funded. And I think that it's about to be squashed, to be honest with you, because ain't nobody trying to hear this. Only on their terms will they let this come out. All right. So the static electricity,

imagine the small shock you get from touching a doorknob after walking on a carpet. The static electricity, which involves the buildup of electric charges on the surface, which is what I'm talking about with the lack of better terms explosion that happens. I don't know what else called the shock. The owie, the owie you get when that happens. That awry, I think they've learned to harness.

The electrostatic pressure, the device uses the pressure created by these electric charges to produce force. When charges are imbalanced, they can, push or pull in a specific direction, which makes sense. I mean, if you have this skin of static electricity around an object that you're using to, that you're propelling, if you wanted to go right, take away less static electricity on the left, and it will actually, in my mind, it would be the opposite. So if you wanted to go, if you wanted to go right, take away more, take away less make there be less static electricity on the right so that the left can propel to the right.

This is going to be thrust without fuel. Unlike traditional rockets that burn fuel to generate thrust, this device uses the electrostatic pressure to move. It doesn't need any propellant, which is the fuel rockets typically use. So it doesn't need anything to propel it outside of the static electricity, which theoretically is free. See where we're going with this? This could revolutionized transportation on a way that you can't even fathom. Goodbye gas taxes in California. Goodbye mileage taxes in California because this will actually get rid of tires. You want to talk about Jetsons?

I know that ages me. Mind you, I'm nearly 40. But in the Jetsons, you see people flying around futuristically without tires on vehicles, just going. Goodbye tire industry. There's a lot of negative things that we are experiencing in today's world because they're trying to off-balance things. They implemented in California a gas tax that backfired on them because they also

implemented this idea that everybody by 2035, if I recall correctly, will have to have an electric vehicle in California. So everybody's getting ahead of the curve that isn't going to move out of California, which, by the way, if you're moving out of California, Tennessee is full. Like, they implement this in California, so people are reacting and they're buying EVs, electric vehicles. And now the state's like, oh, the gas tax is going down. That's not good.

So how are we going to make this better? Well, we will implement the mileage tax. I don't know what it is, maybe 30 cents a mile or something like that, maybe three cents a mile. I might be misremembering 30 sounds awfully a lot, but they're implementing a mileage tax. Well, with this technology, when you say, let's just keep it in terms that we can fathom, imagine a car from Kentucky, a backyard in Kentucky that doesn't have tires on it. And that is your mode of transportation. Imagine a car with no tires and you transport yourself through this new technology that engulfs the object you're being transported in in a static electricity skin.

It might be hard to fathom, but I really believe that this is where it's going. The skin is a thruster. The outer surface skin of the aircraft or spacecraft. or car or maybe bicycle, I don't know, acts as the engine, creating thrust from the static electricity effect. Are we catching what I'm trying to put out here for you? Is this making sense? Give me thumbs up in the chat if this is making sense for you or if I'm talking gibberish. I'm trying my best here. I'm trying my best here. I'd like to blame it on the fact that it's the morning time and this is wake up Wednesday and all that stuff. But unfortunately, I can't because I've been up for a very, very

long time. I'm awake. And I'd like to think I'm saying on this. I'd like to think I'm saying on this. You guys will decide that. But I'm going to believe what I want to believe, whether you like it or not. So the next thing that this leads to is what all can this do for us? I think it cuts back on a lot of financials. I think it's going to save the environment. I think it's going to be probably the greenest thing you could possibly imagine that's practical in the future. I'm talking near future. If they allow it to get that far, because I think that there's a strong possibility this gets shut down. Just like the car that ran on water, don't believe me, look it up. They killed him. This is going to save our wallets, which, by the way, I think there's a strong,

possibility that before the years over, something really bad is going to happen to our currency. And we're all going to be in the same boat, friends. This broadcast might not be happening at that point because we're all going to be in the same boat and none of us will be able to afford a loaf of bread. However, I'm sorry, I'm going to bring it back. Save us money. We already have the AI driving vehicles that we talked about earlier. So there's safety, saving money, saving the environment, more efficient, not only efficient on the propulsion, the environment, but also in time. Because this is going to take the Jetsons to that level, to us to the level of the Jetsons, I should say. If you think about the Jetsons, you see the little car thing go up in the air and it shoots off.

And what do you see? It shoots off. it goes. That's what this technology is going to be offering. We're talking about incredible speeds. I don't know what the science is behind it as far as the human body being able to handle that kind of force. But we're talking about future technology anyways. They'll figure it out.

But here's where Charles Bueller is going with this. he's talking space travel. Charles Bueller says, according to their calculations, understandings, with this new way of using this technology, old physics reworked,

they stumbled into it. It was an accident. They didn't mean for this to happen. They just did it. He believes that not using a spaceship rocket that shoots, who knows,

how much fuel off just to get out of the atmosphere, he believes from Earth to the moon, that trip can be done in two and a half hours with this technology. Let that sink in. If that's true, let that sink in, think in. Let that sink in. Let yourself think about that.

Because when you think about, say, a craft that doesn't require the propulsion of fuel. It doesn't have this giant engine just to fire off that fuel. It's just a, just say a UFO, this smaller thing that doesn't have wheels that can shoot from Earth into space and go to the moon in two and a half hours. My, what can we accomplish? What can we accomplish with that kind of technology and ability and power? Bring it down on a small scale, back to our personal day use. You're not running late for work anymore, friends. The vehicle's going to drive you and it's going to shoot you off at incredible speeds and you can be in your craft being shot to, you know, you could have a job in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania and live in Knoxville, Tennessee,

and be in Philly in five minutes. So you get in the car, you're running late, you woke up late because you had a long night partying or you had a kid that was sick. You're not sitting in traffic, putting your makeup on, eating a bowl of cereal. You're now putting your makeup on, eating a bowl of cereal, getting shot from Knoxville, Tennessee to Philadelphia in five minutes. Is that enough time to eat your bowl of cereal? For me, it is. For me, it is.

I eat fast. I've been often described as a human trash can because I can't help myself when I see leftovers, I eat it. that's a practical thing of daily use with this future technology. Remember we hear people talk about how they have these high-speed rail systems and underground bases that shoot from one spot to another across the country. You can be there in five minutes. That's what we're talking about.

In fact, now that I think about it, I believe I remember somebody talking about it being on a static railway. So this is probably technology that has been used in the underbellies of higher-up elite-type circles that now Charles Bueller accidentally discovered and is talking about it and using private funding. It's not publicly funded to advance his scientific findings. And if he gets a little bit closer and they're not ready for it, they might shut the man down. That's my prediction. And if they let it come out, it's been willed to come out. Anyways, Charles suggests that two and a half hours to the moon.

And in the same vein, he thinks we could go from Earth. Now, think about this. Elon Musk has been extremely open to the idea and talking confidently about how he wants his company to take craft and people from Earth to Mars. I wouldn't be surprised if VLON got involved in this now, I'm thinking about it. When we hear that, we think about how, okay, what would that be? We're talking about, you know, these space movies, lost in space. You go to sleep for a six-month journey, you know, you take in that.

Anybody ever see Rocket Man, the old movie Rocket Man from Disney? That one comedian, I can't remember his name. And he gets in his chamber. He's supposed to go in a chamber and take in this gas and breathe it in. he falls asleep and it's all perfectly measured that he'll wake up six months later and they'll be at some far distant planet. But he actually, for whatever reason, he says, good night to his two co-pilots. They have a monkey on board. And that monkey goes into his, his, his, his, his, his enclosement that he's supposed to breathe that gas. The monkey takes his gas. And so he's like, all right, well, I'm going to go into the monkey's chamber and he squeezes and he tries pulling it down.

He doesn't fit. And he breathes in the gas. They puts him to sleep. But because the chamber wasn't closed and the gas was measured for a monkey and not a human. he was asleep for like five minutes and he spends six months awake, lost in space. No more of that because Charles Bueller believes that we can go from Earth to Mars in five to six days. We could make several trips to the moon in one day, talk about dropping off supplies and building space stations. Imagine, I believe they were talking about. building a some kind of station on the moon to be able to launch to the moon and then from the moon launch to Mars. That's not necessary. So I don't know what you'd build on the moon. Maybe a poker table or something. I don't know. Maybe that it becomes a resort. Imagine that.

With this kind of technology, it now becomes a vacation destination for very wealthy people. Oh, what are you doing for the holiday? Well, taking my wife and the kids, we're going to go to the moon for a week. I hear it's really nice this time of year. The sun rises. Amazing. So if you can go back and forth to the moon several times a day, dropping people off, have a good week.

Thanks for the $500,000 for your week. Man, I got to get in that business. I had a guy who was emailing us telling me that. he figured out how to open portals and he was going to portal into my living room and it was going to be great. It was going to be great. He was going to portal into my living room. Show me how it works. And we can create a business where we actually portal people to some mountain top. And it was going to be like a vacation destination for all the fine honeies. That's what he was telling me. He was fine honeies. Told him I was married. I couldn't do it.

Anyways, dropping people off the moon for vacation, you know, like the guy wanted to do the portal hop into the mountaintops and have all the finest honeies. Going from Earth to Mars in five days, five to six days, you legit could set up a real operation. What would that look like? I don't know. You discover plenty of things on Mars.

I guarantee you there will be a huge cover-up of what is actually on Mars because I personally believe this is great. I love this show because I get to just talk. You do it enough on your show, some people will say. Mind you, I try to let the guests talk as much as possible. Sometimes the guests need a little help. So then I talk. I'm fine with somebody talking for two hours straight and I don't say anything.

That's the easiest day of my life. But these are nice because I get to just talk. But I personally think that there's, things on Mars, like probably pyramids and things like that, ancient technology, ancient structures, I do believe that there has been more to the story than what we understand currently. Imagine what they'd find. Imagine finding an ancient portal pyramid. Ooh, we should call this the portal pyramids. Ooh, I should write that down for a future episode title. That sounds good. Portal pyramids. Pyramid portal.

Imagine finding an ancient portal pyramid on Mars that is in pristine condition because, I don't know, what the science is behind it, but there's no atmosphere and there's no erosion and just looks perfect. You can walk in and you see the ancient statues of Anubis and you see how it all works, and all of a sudden it's a stargate and you get beam back to Earth.

You're like, wow, that's even better than our static ships. But imagine what you'd find on Mars if you could just go there in a five-day period. You know, you go, come back. It's been 10 days, 12 days, not even two weeks. You went back. Portal mid. I like that. Somebody mentioned in the chat, portal mid.

Portal mid. I mean, the logistics are crazy. And to make it a little bit more wild for you, I had the demon machine write this up for me here. Well, not write it up. do the calculations for me. I wanted to know what it would take, how long it would take to go from Earth

to Neptune, which is theoretically the furthest planet away from us in the solar system, if you believe in such things. It said, given that Neptune is much further away, the time would be significantly longer.

Neptune is about 30 times farther from the sun than Earth. roughly 4.5 kilometers away. Or I wish, right? 4.5 billion, not million, blah, blah, billion kilometers away. If we assume a similar constant acceleration as the previous mentioned equations

that we work together, me and AI, demon machine, really, you know, we work together on these mathematical equations, you know, it needs my help too, you know. If we assume a similar, constant acceleration, let's estimate it would be about six months to reach Neptune, considering the technology could maintain a high acceleration over such a vast distance. Amazing.

I mean, imagine the what-ifs. Like, if we can just pull back from space ain't real, bro, and just imagine the possibilities. I don't know what you do when you get to Neptune. Is Neptune all gas? I don't know. Is it actually a hard planet? It's a water planet? I don't know.

I didn't look into it that much. It was like 4 o'clock when I started playing the show, guys. But imagine being able to travel from Earth to Neptune in six months. Now we're talking about Rocket Man from Disney. You need to be able to have that breathing, you know, that breathing gas. But do you? Can you build, because you don't have propulsion and all that stuff as far as the constant fuel burning, could you just build like a space station type of craft and have the six-month

supply or maybe a 12-month supply of MREs and just, you know, rough it out? Do you really need to sleep? I mean, would you want to sleep that journey? I don't know if I'd want to sleep that journey. Just pack the MREs and we're good, bro. I want to look out that window and pass all the planets by. I want to see the rings of Saturn. I want to see what's out there.

I want to see a Muamua, mua. Oh, you don't know what about Muamua. That's for another show. I want to see that journey. I don't want to sleep through it. Give me the MREs, a bottle of water. I'm good. Maybe a pair of underwear.

Just one. I mean, talk about you want to talk about a global transformation of economy this opens up so many doorways, so many possibilities.

The future of transportation is something that used to be sci-fi is transitioning out of that and the normies are going to have to pick up and catch up. because it ain't going to slow down unless they'd lose the technology. It's going to keep going. We got the driverless vehicles that police officers are pulling over.

That's just a start of it, my friends. That is just the start of it. We're going to go through growing pains and processes here. We're going to have driverless vehicles that don't make it to the point of getting pulled over before they wreck into, let's say, 10 other vehicles before it comes to a screeching halt and kills 15 people. We're going to have that. We're going to have emergency sessions in Congress talking about how we should outlaw the driverless vehicles because they're just too dangerous. And then they'll still keep it around because of some kind of bureaucracy. Ultimately,

it's not going anywhere. Just like the internet's not going anywhere, it's here to stay. ultimately like AI ain't going anywhere it's here to stay everybody gets scared of AI and rightfully show you should be at some levels I think that there definitely could be things that could communicate and inhabit AI but ultimately I'm trying to look at AI as my adult generation internet when I was a child I was in late 90s I was I don't know 97 I was a seventh grade ninth grade I was 9 20 that's so 99 let's just say 1999. I was a freshman in high school. And there are people out there saying the internet thing was a fad. It wasn't going to be around. How could you possibly ever make money on the internet? Here we are. Without the internet, I'd be homeless. No, I'd just be driving a truck.

But I'm trying to look at the AI the same way. Is internet bad? Yes. And at the same time, it is good. Does Internet offer bad things? Yes. Porn is one of them. But it's also incredible and changes people's lives for the better. It saves people's lives. I think AI is in the same vein for our generation. So I'm not one of these people who are writing off AI as,

I ain't touching that. My friend Shane Cashman over at Tim Poole's, crew. As far as I know, has not touched AI yet. I'm not one of those people. I think that AI could ruin a lot of things, but I also know it's not going anywhere, no matter how much they want to talk about the idea of outlawing it or putting government restraints on it, which they possibly could, but I don't know if that's even possible. AI's here to stay. It's going to be integrated, not just on your computer screen and in your phones and your Apple watches or whatever, it's going to be integrated into technology,

is going to be integrated into your transportation, and there's nothing you can do about it. This is the future. This is the world that your children will grow up in. They will know no different, just like there are 20-year-olds walking around that have no idea what the world was like before 9-11 because they didn't exist. We walk around like these old people that they look at.

Well, you're an old person. Talking about the good old days before internet was rampant, before 9-11 happened, we could run around the woods and smack each other in the face with sticks and be a fine. Now we got a bunch of new young generation walking around limp-risted with a hunchback at the age of 15 because they just grew up staring at a phone, never using a muscle in their life because they don't go outside and play. They just look at screens and I'm not saying it's all bad. this is the world that they're living in. This is the world they have to live in. Without it, I'm not saying you should put your kid in front of a screen 24-7. What I'm saying is as an adult,

they will live in a world where they have no option other than to do such things to earn a living, to exist, to have relationships, all of it. This is the world they live in. this is the future, this is where it's at. So it's going to integrate into transportation. I think possibly, I find it interesting that that person that says that he saw the Roswell crash pictures described the, let's just call it the walls of the ship, the sides of the craft as skin being torn, not the wall being ripped open, the door flying off, the window crashing. He called it skin, which should tell you that this was something that is not what you're thinking in your head traditionally when it comes to 1947 Roswell Crash.

You think of an ancient old way of thinking with UFOs when you think that far back. Like, oh, you know, they're talking. When they were talking about the flying saucer, they're talking about a metal disc flying. Well, this guy, if he's real and true, is saying that it had a skin that was torn. Well, what kind of skin are we talking about? Could it have been some kind of technology that the skin was torn open? And you could see this weird distortion of static

because it was a static skin. It's very interesting to think about could it have been a biological craft and not so much of a metal flying saucer. And then we bring us, it brings us back to Charles Bueller. who'd accidentally discovered that static electricity can propel us at incredibly high speeds, not only to work, but to the moon and possibly Mars, Neptune.

It's wild stuff. It's wild stuff, friends. Times are changing. It's easy to kind of be the old person in the room, which I'm a big fan of at times. but on a Wednesday morning we should just sit back sometimes and contemplate the direction not just of the rest of the week

but where we're going as a human species what are the implications, good and bad, and act accordingly. When I first started doing the confessionals, I would tell people in the future as a futurist dystopian type person I am,

you have to be flexible. And what I mean by flexibility is you can't on everything have this old man hard line in the sand mentality. Certain things you certainly have to. It's life or death.

It has eternal consequences. But until we're put six feet under, there needs to be some certain level of flexibility. And just like the internet was not all bad, I suggest that we look at the future of technology, innovation, and transportation. The revolution that's coming is not all bad.

Is it dangerous? Yes. But is it all dangerous? Yes. No, probably not. It's probably a lot of good. And they're going to sell you the good. You have to have your spidey senses up and really be aware of looking around the room,

taking the information in and thinking for yourself. Because they're going to sell you all the good. Question, what's the bad? Way your options. And act accordingly. Second week doing weird Wednesday wake up. and I don't know how this show is supposed to go if it's supposed to be upbeat and happy

or mellow and chill we're filling this out as we go but I feel like we're going to end on a chill note hopefully a contemplative mindset as you

wind down your week after today you're looking forward to the weekend be doing some grilling birthday parties or just spending time with your family. Breathe easy. Know that there's nothing you can do to stop what's coming and remember to be flexible so that you're not left in the dust

on all things. Some things we probably should be left in the dust on. But maybe not all things because why willingly hurt yourself if you don't have to? You know what I'm saying? All right, guys. Week two of Weird Wednesday Roundup is all done. I hope you guys enjoyed this time spent this morning.

I certainly did. We had one caller call in and I didn't get to him fast enough so we bailed and nobody else called in. Start thinking about calling in next week. hit those links on YouTube and Facebook so that I can have somebody to talk to and I don't have to just talk myself the whole time. I can do that apparently.

We've been going for about an hour and a half, so I think I've proven that. I'd like to have a conversation with y'all too. So until next week, friends, keep your head up, on a swivel, and enjoy life. Let's get out of here. The world's a bit different
