Starting point is 00:00:00 What happens if you microwave an oven? If I fused myself with a lie detector test, could I see the truth? All of these questions you can find the answer to on This Paranormal Life! Welcome everyone back to the podcast. Hopefully I've done my job right and it's Tuesday right now. It's not always a given. Sometimes it's after midnight. But you know what, that's when the paranormal ghosts strike their hardest blows so it's it's the perfect time to get the podcast
Starting point is 00:00:30 going what i like to say is you know it's always tuesday somewhere that's not right what about new zealand they're like upside down or some shit so on friday is tuesday on a thursday evening it's tuesday in tokyo if you haven't listened to this podcast before what we are is a comedy paranormal podcast where every week we investigate a brand new case and come to a conclusion at the end whether it's real or false now sometimes we investigate these stories by ourselves sometimes they're emailed in and sometimes like today we are bombarded folks we are bombarded by a suggestion that that we can't we can't move past it yeah the public demands it too much this is a conspiracy theory that's been popular in the media before but recently has
Starting point is 00:01:20 exploded on twitter right everyone is talking about this. Really? Except you didn't see it. No. So I refrain from checking those. I have basically a pager from the 90s set up on my waistband here. Right. And if anyone...
Starting point is 00:01:37 That's old as shit. If anyone says anything inflammatory or something that I need to ban them for, maybe leak some confidential information. This puppy over here goes off. Then I'll check the pages. But until then, I ain't reading shit. Yeah, I mean, I think you got that.
Starting point is 00:01:53 So you exclaimed to destroy all paper trails. But I see in your back pocket, you also have a notebook where it looks like you're taking rigorous notes on everything that comes through. Oh, absolutely. Pretty much all of my personal information internet passwords um national insurance any tax returns it's right down this puppy so not just class i don't lose it i'll be fine where is it oh this is next year's it's empty empty. Where the f*** is the old one? Oh my god. You gotta page someone quick, man.
Starting point is 00:02:28 Well, look. The story this week involves a man. Maybe you've heard of him, Kit. His name is Donald Trump. I actually have. Now, Trump is a weird guy for a lot of different reasons. Right. But once again, he was brought into the spotlight.
Starting point is 00:02:43 But for a very different reason okay now listen full disclosure folks i'm not gonna childproof this ride you gotta be this tall to hop on board because it's gonna be fast it's gonna be furious and it's gonna be paranormal as hell also full disclosure we voted for shillery a A lot of what's going to be coming forward is pretty biased. And you might tell from the tone of voice that, hell, I don't like her either. Yeah, I don't like Shillery, but they took Bernie Slanders off the bill as well. And yeah, I don't like him. It sounds like you don't like any of the candidates.
Starting point is 00:03:20 Course not. Truth is, I can't get excited about anyone until Kanye Jest over there runs in 2020. I'm so glad you can't vote in America. Let's dive in, folks. On the 16th of January, a woman named Cassandra Parra tweeted out, quote, Please read this thread if you're into conspiracies.
Starting point is 00:03:40 Naturally, my interest was piqued. She had tweeted out a series of screenshots from a user called young dre okay the first one said i'm on the office of congress library website and came across this book written in 1893 look at the title now the book he's referring to is by a lawyer and a fantasy writer named Ingersoll Lockwood. Fantasy writer. This is a good start for a story to be potentially true. The book was called Barron Trump's Marvelous Underground Journey.
Starting point is 00:04:17 Okay. Okay. Barron. So Barron is usually an old style thing, but Trump. So I guess this is some kind of coincidence that it's the name of the current president. Well, also, Barron Trump, for those who don't know, is the name of Trump's son. What? Really? Barron Trump. That's his name. I didn't know that. Yeah. I'm glad I wrote that down in the notes then. Yeah. Jesus. Donald Trump's son is Barron Trump. Okay.
Starting point is 00:04:38 And again, this book was written in 1893. Huh. Now, this is a fantasy book, so there's a lot of strange things going on within these pages. But the plot consists of Baron Trump discovering a secret portal that allows him to travel through time. Really? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:04:57 Which is pretty, um, racy kind of fantasy stuff for the 1800s. I would say so. I mean, not beyond the world of fantasy there's a lot of popular fantasy books that include time travel but you know just weird we have this little time traveling boy called baron trump and now we have the son of the president called baron trump okay would you like to look at this side by side comparison so okay so we've got we've got a picture of baron trump here in front of the
Starting point is 00:05:29 goddamn red white and blue two of them in fact wearing a three-piece suit and he's being compared to the image of baron trump in this 1893 fantasy novel a small person a young person i suppose uh in very very royal dress um quite similar faces i mean even the you say similar faces two eyes the facial expression is similar also they're both side eyeing to the same direction in fact to the left i think they're winking to each other which is weird because these are two very different images these are two different jpegs how they ever could know that they'd be side by side in future and they have a similar even their hair is swept the same way it's pretty it's pretty weird it's pretty transparent i would say now in the story baron trump spends a lot of time in Russia.
Starting point is 00:06:29 And he has a mentor in the book that helps him on his journey. Referred to as Don. Don. Don Trump. Donald. Baron Trump. Is the puzzle clicking into place yet, Kit? So to get this clear, we have Baron Trump. I'm traveling to Russia, to and from Russia, and has a friend called Don.
Starting point is 00:06:51 A mentor called Don. Oh, a mentor. I apologize. Now, four years later, in 1896, Lockwood released another book. This was a standalone book called The Last President. A story about the fall of America, where riots break out across New York and Chicago, when an unlikely candidate becomes president. Is that right? When selecting members for his cabinet, this man picks a person named Pence.
Starting point is 00:07:20 No, he doesn't. I'm not making this up. I told you we're going to be moving fast today people we've gone zero to a thousand real quick here i mean you haven't come out and said it just yet yeah what we have so far is a story on the um u.s congress library yeah written in a in what is apparently fiction that seems to mirror the present day with uncanny accuracy? You know, there is a coincidence that all of these names happen to appear in the books. It could be a coincidence.
Starting point is 00:07:53 Right, because presumably there's other names too. Yeah, you know, people can control F the shit out of anything these days. Got it. This dude probably searched Hillary, wall, you know, you know everything okay he was just nitpicking all these little things but there's also another possibility kit what if lockwood was trying to tell us something all right that brace yourself either donald trump is a time traveler his son baron trump is a time traveler or get your tinfoil hats ready kit. They're the same person.
Starting point is 00:08:27 What are you saying here? So I don't know. So that the Baron Trump that existed in what? 1892. Yeah. Is this a little time traveling bastard? But whenever you say the same person, do you mean that they're, they traveled through time and are the same. He's a little time-traveling bastard. But whenever you say they're the same person, do you mean that they traveled through time and are the same person?
Starting point is 00:08:48 Have we ever seen Barron Trump and Donald in the same room? I don't know. I mean, they're so... This is the thing with time travel. These books were written in 1893. Yeah. The Barron Trump that Lockwood could be writing about could be Barron Trump from the future
Starting point is 00:09:04 come back to the time when he was alive donald trump could be an old version of baron trump who's been time traveling using this machine yes there's a lot of different permutations of this exactly it kind of raises the question i mean would you if you were to travel through time to wreak havoc on the u.s political system would you keep the same name like this is kind of funny that he is just doing very minor twists on the same names yeah that's you gotta keep the legacy going you know i guess also i like donald trump says a lot of things that he then contradicts quite heavily almost the next day yeah uh i wonder if you had possession of a time machine would you let that keep happening yeah i know i know but i mean maybe
Starting point is 00:09:53 this could explain some of his erratic behavior maybe he's like 100 years old it's true and his brain is kind of mush melted from all the time travel he's a maybe if you brought anyone from the 1800s to today's world they would seem unhinged to say the least i mean god knows we know what a career's worth of psycho diving can do to a man oh my god most people don't have the mental capacity to survive even one psycho dive absolutely not they hit the first trans-dimensional wall and just fall flat into oblivion yeah we actually i probably shouldn't say this on the air but we do have a kind of prestige style vault full of duplicates of ourselves that didn't make it we're the ones who survived the psycho dive do you know how scary it
Starting point is 00:10:38 is to do this podcast every day not knowing if you're going to be the one hosting or the one in the tank people are like why do you need a tank to do the podcast and you're just like you clearly don't understand you're like oh my sweet simple child if only you knew as you get into the tank start handcuffing myself you idiot so dumb well it's actually very interesting kit that you bring up the prestige because the the movie the prestige uh features a fantastic inventor which we know as nikola tesla sure one of the world's greatest inventors one of the world's greatest people exactly killer mustache among many things yeah i mean well it's kind of low down the list of things that are great about him but fantastic hair a strong jawline i mean he was known for so many things there's like models and like actors who probably see the eyes electric eyes okay so you well arguably like downright gorgeous okay also inventor of like ac electricity and but yes nikola tesla great man a handsome
Starting point is 00:11:43 gent whatever sure i guess he did all that technology shit as well are you thinking of david bowie by the way from the movie yeah no he didn't play himself that was david bowie actually what you know bowie life on mars space oddity under pressure all done by tesla bowie did he cover them? You're so confused. Tesla, known for his fantastic good looks and incredible music career. You're like, anyway, so he was cool. Anyway, back to the story. David Bowie was in 1800s. Inventor.
Starting point is 00:12:16 I think he invented electricity or some shit. Tesla invented an incredible amount of technology in his lifetime. But there was still a lot that he never got to finish. Of course. In the 1890s, he accidentally created what he referred to as an earthquake machine. The government had to shut that one down pretty fast. Well, he shut it down pretty fast. Allegedly, when an oscillator he was working on
Starting point is 00:12:40 started vibrating at the frequency of the building it was in, the walls of the room started to crack until Tesla had to smash the machine with a hammer. Wow. I mean, that's pretty epic. That's pretty epic. It's kind of scary to know that Tesla didn't have a better failsafe than a hammer. That's how he kind of stopped everything.
Starting point is 00:12:57 They really set him back like a couple hundred years, actually. Yeah, you didn't want to act like drunken out of order on tesla or else he started bringing out the old hammer he would call you his little invention and chase you around the room with a hammer and there's a lot more an electronically powered supersonic airship a machine capable of producing artificial tidal waves obviously with any great geniuses uh-huh there were some rumors going around that tesla was going a bit mad towards the end right there were some definite uh rumors flying around about him wasn't he in love with a pigeon oh i did not uh i did not see that one i'm pretty sure he f***ed a pigeon i might disc discredit him as a pretty important person in this case.
Starting point is 00:13:46 I didn't mean to discredit him. Just saying he f***ed a pigeon. It's not the end of the world. It's pretty bad. Let's move on. I mean, that's pretty bad for an inventor. On his 78th birthday, he told the New York Times he had created something called a quote-unquote peace beam. That could cause armies of millions to drop dead in their tracks oh that doesn't sound like peace at all i guess i guess if it's the enemy army obviously the press immediately dubbed it as the death beam right even though he was uh famously anti-war yeah that's like tesla also um is believed to have invented something he called the um starvation cure which was a beam that actually um he just shot at people's stomachs and annihilated their entire intestinal system
Starting point is 00:14:32 and they dropped dead immediately but it did actually remove the need for food altogether very effective i mean for someone who's famously anti-war mean, a lot of his shit that he made is like an earthquake machine, a tidal wave creator. I mean, don't make weapons if you're pretty anti-war. Yeah. You know, this is just a path he chose. You know, he invented like modern electricity, essentially. Lots of the applications of it.
Starting point is 00:15:00 It's kind of like being Thor, the god of thunder. There's not a lot of like peacekeeping you can do with that ability yeah you kind of have to wreck havoc exactly that's like saying oh like i i want everyone to get along i made all these incredible powerful machines to ensure that no one will ever fight again and if they do if they do i'm to nuke these bastards so hard. It's like, that's war, Tesla. That's war, man. He's like, I call it the peace beam. And he annihilates an entire herd of cows to show it off. They're like, you've gone mad.
Starting point is 00:15:37 This will annihilate the entire world. And he just turns around, puts on his NRA cap, and he's like, an armed society is a polite society. Flips his gun to peace, and then opens fire on the crowd, like laser beams shoot out in every direction. He does. He turns around and does a Thanos click. With his peace glove.
Starting point is 00:15:59 Half the world turns into electricity. Half the world turns into pigeons. they're trying to stop him and someone has a sword and like pulls it through his stomach and then he goes you should have aimed for the plug and the fuck it flicks a switch and the machine powers on yeah it's just as a tv remote um so what the fuck does david Bowie have to do with all this? Well, one of the most interesting things that happened towards the end of his life took place in March
Starting point is 00:16:31 1895. A reporter for the New York Herald wrote on March 13th that he came across the inventor in a small cafe looking shaken. He approached the scientists and asked what was wrong. Tesla said, I'm afraid you won't find me a pleasant companion tonight. The fact is, I was almost killed today. The spark jumped
Starting point is 00:16:54 three feet through the air and struck me here on the right shoulder. If my assistant had not turned off the current instantly, that might have been the end of me me Tesla went on to say that he had been hit by approximately 3.5 million volts in what people claim was an experiment to see if time in space could be influenced by using highly charged rotating magnetic fields I mean I don't know anything about science but if anything's gonna you know create some sort of warp in space time, it's going to be volts. We're talking like at least how many did he say? Like 25 AA batteries or something like 20 or 30.
Starting point is 00:17:35 Honestly, I know a lot of Tesla's. I'm sure there was a lot of actual science behind what he was doing. It sounds like a lot of it was just jamming as much electricity into wires as he possibly could until he went blind it was kind of just like all right so here in the laboratory we have um just a simple game boy pocket if i were to rig it up to a pole struck by lightning will pokemon come to life i? We were going the same place by the way. I was about to say the Kanto region
Starting point is 00:18:09 will explode from the Game Boy Pocket into existence. He tried it once with a Game Boy camera. That actually made the death beam by the way. Just a laser. If anyone wants to try it, you're welcome. Just hook a game boy camera up to the
Starting point is 00:18:27 national grid yeah you've got yourself a bona fide peace beam well look getting hit by this 3.5 million volts by this machine yeah tesla said that in that moment he could see the immediate past present present, and future all at once. Really? Is this on the record? It was on the record. It was reported in newspapers. Jesus.
Starting point is 00:18:53 But apparently he was paralyzed within the electromagnetic field. Huh. So he couldn't really move. He was just witnessing everything at once. That makes sense. This is a can of worms. He might have died, but what if his like consciousness was just floating around in the past present and future yeah i mean maybe he would have
Starting point is 00:19:10 stayed there that's the most tesla thing in the world yeah your body my body didn't go with me it's like what what are you saying that's it it's just it's kind of like when people have a near death experience and they're like i saw god it's like how i had to explain to me once that you know we're 3d beings right yeah we live in a 3d world 3d movies are like as good as it gets but time is like another dimension altogether that we can't see because we live in the 3d plane it's like taking an ant and the ant's walking along a piece of paper right got it and if you take the two ends what kind of paper just regular like stock just like a yeah regular piece of white printer paper cool white printer paper i guess doesn't
Starting point is 00:19:52 really matter nice nice and you take the strip of paper and i'm the ant no who is the ant in this okay you're the ant i'm the ant you're the ant okay all right i'm the brain of an ant jesus christ i'm the ant gotta get crumbs gotta get bread gotta get grapes you actually don't need to have any input in this analogy whatsoever look if you want me to be a passive lesson i need to do my my methods you've never acted in your life what are you talking about something i want to move into a little bit in 2019 so let me do my thing no fair enough i mean like i'm supportive so okay cool i'm an ant just don't don't let it get in the way of the analogy okay i'm a okay? I'm a little bug. I'm a little f***ing bug man.
Starting point is 00:20:27 Yeah. I got big old ears and little ant legs. Do they have ears? How do you know? I'm big old. I'm like a... Why are you speaking in like a southern way? You keep saying big old. I'm not afraid of shit.
Starting point is 00:20:38 I got f***ing wings. I got horns. Not many of them do have wings. I'm ready to run with the bulls. I'm a little ant, but I got the heart of a lion. I'm a little beast. do have wings I'm ready to run with the bulls I'm a little ant but I got the heart of a lion I'm a little beast alright I'm ready
Starting point is 00:20:49 so ants was cast like over a decade ago I don't think there's ever going to be another ants feature film ants 2 I've been pitching it
Starting point is 00:20:56 for several years now okay so I see this is why you're so personally invested in the ant thing which is all the original cast plus moi
Starting point is 00:21:02 well you know what he's not an ant anymore he's a spider oh shit alright I'm you know what he's not an ant anymore he's a spider oh shit all right i'm you don't want this part of the part of the career you're gonna get served curveballs i'm gonna need like 15 minutes man okay you don't have a spider i'm a spider i'm a little f***ing spider i got f***ing wings but the heart of a lion okay you're like so mostly the ant stuff again i eight legs, but the mind of an ant. Got the f***ing mind and body of an ant.
Starting point is 00:21:33 You're not a spider then. It's like, okay, it's not even a bug anymore. You're a human. I'm me, I'm Rory, but I've got the mind of an ant. The body of a spider. No! The heart of an ant. All body of a spider. No! The heart of an ant. All right.
Starting point is 00:21:48 Sorry. Continue with the... So this ant's walking along the piece of paper. Yeah. So this ant's walking in a 2D world, right? Suddenly, if we take that piece of paper and twist it around so that it loops around into a circle that twists in the middle, the ant still believes that it's walking on a straight line on a flat surface but in reality given enough time to walk around it's going to twist and turn through 3d space right it feels as 2d by the same token we're 3d beings
Starting point is 00:22:19 going through earth that we feel to be flat we're just you know i just get up in the morning i go to work i take the train it's all in a straight line i come back in a straight line when the reality is we are tumbling through four five six 11 d space time oh that we have no perception of because as 3d animals we cannot perceive the dimension of time space damn. Damn! So it's as if Tesla was able to disconnect his consciousness from his mortal frame and be able to peer somehow through the fabric of space-time and see, like in Interstellar, kind of float through the different dimensions of time and space and see them as an outside observer, not inside the universe anymore.
Starting point is 00:23:04 And all it took was a shit ton of electricity straight into his body. I mean, I don't know if you're with me, folks, but we need to be jamming forks into toasters. We need to be juicing up. We need to be positively throwing hair dryers into bathtubs. I'm going to eat a goddamn battery when we're done with this. We need to be ripping open the backs of our computers and just stuffing
Starting point is 00:23:25 our mitts inside seeing what happens sucking on the wires that come loose when tesla finally died in 1943 the fbi ordered the seizure of all of tesla's belongings by what was called the office of alien property really now i think alien in this term is referring to foreign uh yeah of course foreign technologies exactly not actual like ufo alien gray property because i was gonna say i didn't think he lived in the u.s did he no i don't think so oh all i know is in the prestige he lives in colorado but i think he but he lived in the hotel didn't he yeah he lives in he lived because he wasn't from colorado yeah you think he i mean i thought he was like swiss or some shit that sounds right all right hold on okay google where was nikola tesla from nikola tesla was born in smiljan croatia croatia there you go i was
Starting point is 00:24:16 expecting sparks to just go shooting out of your phone into my eyeballs i see the future! I just see the face of Byron Trump laughing. Oh god! All of his property was seized and to make sense of Tesla's notes and unfinished work, they brought in a professor at MIT and a well-known electrical engineer called John
Starting point is 00:24:40 G. Trump. Donald Trump's grandfather. Really? Yeah. So this is a concrete link to the current president of the United States, Donald Trump. After a three-day investigation, Trump's report concluded that there was nothing of importance in Tesla's notes. I'm sorry, is this real?
Starting point is 00:25:01 This is real. Donald Trump's grandfather, John Trump, he was an electrical engineer that investigated the FBI seizure of Nikola Tesla's property. That's absolutely correct. F***ing hell. And you know, if you're looking at Tesla's notes in a little room, you're seeing death ray.
Starting point is 00:25:19 You're seeing time machine. What happens then when you want to hold on to a lot of info to benefit your family? You tell the FBI, he was mad. Yeah, the death ray, that was nothing. Time machine? This guy was crazy. The FBI are like, no, I still think there's something to it. These notes are incredibly detailed.
Starting point is 00:25:41 He f***ed a pigeon. What? Do we have any evidence for that? No, but I heard it. I guess he was crazy. These are two mad stories. All right. And I'm very aware of this.
Starting point is 00:25:52 The story of a time traveling little boy called Baron Trump. Yes. The links to the Trump family with a time machine. But then also the fact that Trump's grandfather actually investigated all of the notes that Nikola Tesla created, including presumably alleged notes on this time machine that he was creating. You know, in Back to the Future, the second one, when Biff basically gets the almanac and Marty goes to that mad future where Biff is like president of the world. That's the one we're living in! Oh, shit. Biff, Trump's great-grandfather, got the time machine,
Starting point is 00:26:31 and now he's president! That would actually explain a lot. Yeah, and I don't know who is who anymore. Think about this. I mean, Donald Trump's great-grandfather could be Trump. Then, if he gives the machine to Trump, Trump could go into the past and get baby Trump to be his new son, Baron.
Starting point is 00:26:50 I think the little that we do know about Trump is that, I don't know, there doesn't seem to be like that much planning or like it's all quite selfish activities. Yeah. So even with this far out fantastical situation it seems almost more likely that it's one trump than it's he's like i just want to carry on the lineage of trump's um to be to be great oh yeah i want to pass on the torch of um of presidentship of
Starting point is 00:27:20 greatness throughout my my family history yeah it seems more likely that he he was john trump and baron trump and donald trump traveling through time yeah it's like uh a little game called kingdom hearts you ever heard of kingdom hearts there's a lot of crazy analogies going on in this episode i think we're showing ourselves to be pretty uncultured actually because we we never go like oh you know like homer's odys Yeah, we're like, you know, Homer Simpson? From the f***ing Simpsons. He actually draws some pretty sweet knowledge about time travel. It's like, he is the quintessential pop culture idiot, and yet we are looking to him for knowledge.
Starting point is 00:28:00 Look, in the popular game Kingdom Hearts, the main villain is called xehanort and xehanort wants to create an evil immediately more complicated than the current situation i'm making things a thousand times worse he wanted to create uh like an evil team of 13 members when that went tits up yeah he was like wait a minute why don't i just go through time and pick 13 evil versions of myself pretty smart to make like an evil team of me wow that's essentially what we're saying uh actually happened with donald trump i'll give you that was a pretty good analogy thank you very much so what we're concluding on here is that uh i think this this writer way way way back in time obviously somehow got wind got knowledge of this time traveling family who would one day go on to
Starting point is 00:28:56 become president and travel to russia uh wrote stories about them yeah obviously the prophecy is fulfilled here they are traveling through time we don't know who's whose grandfather and who's whose son or if they're all clones of themselves okay what are your thoughts like you say two crazy stories here it's like these two massive tapestries crazy detailed tapestries in which people in the images of these tapestries, people are traveling through time, getting off with pigeons, zapping each other with electricity, running for president.
Starting point is 00:29:32 Yeah. And then just these two distinct tapestries side by side. There is one tiny thread connecting them both. And that is the connection between Donaldald trump's grandfather and nikola tesla presumably i guess the problem here immediately is that not only is there not really any evidence for the time traveling portion of this physically but indeed evidence is almost impossible that's very true We can never know whether, like even if we have birth certificates
Starting point is 00:30:09 for each Trump throughout history, we don't know if these were falsified or if someone traveled through time and changed their name. Yeah, and it is worth saying as well. I mean, as we pointed out, the theory we talked about last, which is that it's all one Trump.
Starting point is 00:30:25 Right. That is also playing into the as we described that kind of like comic book style approach towards time travel where a human body can literally travel through time if we're talking about what happened to nikola tesla which is just witnessing omnipotently the past, present, and future. Yeah. What we would presumably be dealing with is Donald Trump's grandfather able to see into the future without actually going there himself. So all he could really do is just distill wisdom, I guess, down generations.
Starting point is 00:30:57 Which he didn't do, it seems. Well, his family's pretty freaking rich. I mean, that worked. But it's like, what's the wisdom? So let's just play a thought experiment that you are donald trump's grandfather you have psycho dove into the future using tesla's technology that you ganked from the fbi so trumpy already you stole actually but what do you say or write down to your grandchild donald j trump yeah in order to make him president maybe it's not even you're passing down knowledge through the generations but maybe you're just passing down this time machine right you could just pass on the technology
Starting point is 00:31:42 yeah so instead of being like to travel personally you just need to pass on the ability to see into the future yeah so it's like maybe donald trump before he ran he was like i really want to like clean up america i think there's a lot of dirty politicians and he then he like you know jammed the voltage into his body and then he pulls it out and it's like oh i actually win by being really racist right Right. Like, I gotta go the other way. Yeah. So then he does that, then... And then he looks in the mirror and all of his hair is falling out. He's like, it's fine, I'll get a toupee.
Starting point is 00:32:10 Yeah. But yeah, this might explain his seemingly chaotic and erratic presidential campaign. Yeah, because between press conferences, he's being zapped by 3.5 million volts. That would explain the energy. He had a lot of energy yeah you know hillary was falling over and shit yeah and like he was like doing like four uh press conferences a day back flipping onto the screen like he really had it like 70 years old by the way uh you're the principal investigator on this case what do you make of all of this nonsense
Starting point is 00:32:41 i think i think the um the links between the trump family and uh the these original stories by lockwood are pretty crazy yeah they could just be a coincidence yes uh because as i said it looks like probably this dude if he found this on a website he was probably control effing through as we now know like 50 million books yeah and yeah exactly and like every single page of this guy's document and there's probably you know there's hundreds of things that didn't come up but uh all he needs is just certain words to kind of like hit the target so i don't necessarily think that um that this guy lockwood had any ability to predict the future or was trying to disclose that this family had discovered a time machine
Starting point is 00:33:26 when it comes to uh tesla and his claims of creating a time machine i don't know the dude was mad i'd love to do a whole episode just on tesla you have to it is so overdue like we're coming up to 100 episodes and we still haven't talked in depth about tesla yet yeah there's just so many theories by that guy because a lot of people as well online say that the uh the this machine he was working on that allowed him to see through time was actually the technology that went forward to the philadelphia experiment yeah that's right that that we talked about that on an earlier episode where the ship like basically went trans-dimensional and melted a bunch of soldiers into the ship but again as we said even if this time machine does work it seems like the user is only able to witness the past present and future at the same time not actually
Starting point is 00:34:17 go there so the the thought that i'm gonna rule out the possibility that trump is one time traveling master villain jumping from generation to generation. I'm going to rule that one out right off the bat. I think that's more than fair. I think, you know what, to give one to the other side, sure, hell, there's a possibility that old John G. Trump probably did find some sort of death ray or horrible machine that he probably could have pocketed.
Starting point is 00:34:42 But I'm going to go ahead and assume that he probably was right. And the majority of the notes found were, I think he described them as more like speculative than actually well-researched. Yeah. And I think if we've learned anything from the prestige, it's that you don't get access to Tesla's time-traveling technology by simply reading his notebook.
Starting point is 00:35:02 Yeah. He had to build the actual machine for you because if tesla if someone like tesla came to me right now even if i was an electrical engineer and he tried to merely explain any sort of simple concept if he tried to explain how light bulbs work to me i'm too goddamn stupid to understand that yeah so if he comes along even to an educated electrical engineer and tries to explain to them through his notes, how a time machine may work, they're not making that thing unless it's, here's a time crystal, plug it into this socket, and hold on to your ass. No one's time traveling, okay? You would need to be Tesla to understand the intricacies. okay you would need to be tesla to understand the intricacies it's so true as you said even if he came and he was like this is a light bulb the electrical current goes through i'm like got it magic he's like no no it's really actually quite simple the electricity buying down to him i praise
Starting point is 00:35:57 the great wizard of the spark really simple this is the principle uh this is the very first like electricity 101 continue my lord don't call me that actually dude it's kind of dope look i'll admit there are a lot of coincidences in this story um and a lot of them line up so romantically there's a bunch of shit i didn't even include because it's too mad and it's too irrelevant like uh like this is insane i'm just gonna just rattle through some of it so please donald trump's mom's name is mary and his father's middle name is christ yeah but like those names are random people choose those names because they are religious he was also born on the the day of a total lunar eclipse. What do these even mean anymore? I don't know.
Starting point is 00:36:45 I think they're just like, this got to the point where he was like, what else is crazy? Right. I think I'm going to go ahead and chalk this down to a no. I think it's a no from me this week. That's going to be a double no.
Starting point is 00:36:58 I know everyone at home loves to hear that. But you know what? Who knows? Maybe if you're really craving that double yes, jack 3.5 volts of electricity right in your chest and next week we might have some
Starting point is 00:37:11 better news for you. So unfortunately, that's it on this week's episode. We are looking at a double no in the case of the time-traveling Donald Trump. But damn, what an interesting story.

Starting point is 00:42:58 You were getting into the mind of an ant earlier. Right. And there's actually, it's just worth knowing, but there's telltale signs for when uh someone with a supposedly human name is actually an ant and they're just trying to get on in the world as a human as if they are human and actually if you'll notice michael antrim it's right there in the name it was right in front of us this guy is just a straight up worker ant i don't know where he's got this money from, how he set up his account.
Starting point is 00:43:27 He's probably got his friends to kind of, you know, form a little hand out of ants to type out on a computer and things like that. Because infamously they can connect like a mecha. That's right. And become like a bigger being. Like a Gundam wing of sorts. Right. Maybe change your name if you want to stay incognito. Like, uh, ant, go like Michael.
Starting point is 00:43:47 I started with Ant. Change it to Ant Spiderman. Ant Antrim. Ant Anthony the Third. Wait, that's worse somehow. Oh, yeah. Sorry. The other word.
Starting point is 00:44:01 Bee Spiderman. Bee. No one will ever guess that you're an ant. Right. Behind all that. That's smart. That's smart. Behind all those bug references.

Starting point is 00:44:28 that can like open it with his freaking teeth. Yeah. He is so chill. But he still has like veneer perfect teeth. Yeah, he's incredible. He can like light a match on his jawline. Yeah. He doesn't even bother him
Starting point is 00:44:39 because he doesn't smoke, he vapes. And like he's always wearing the most cash outfits. It's like, where do you even work? Where do you get away with these unbelievably casual yet stylish outfits? He's like, work? I keep it cash. Yeah, I keep it cash. I understand, but like, don't you need to...
Starting point is 00:44:52 Like, do you have a surf sponsorship? Or like, he's like shaking his head. No, I just keep it cash, man. What? I'm like, Raj, where do you live? Are you homeless? Do you need help, Raj? How long have you been on this beach, Cash Raj?
Starting point is 00:45:03 You're starting to realize maybe that casual look isn't by choice maybe he's only got that one pair of clothes his hair is pretty sandy actually now that i notice it it's more of a shipwreck vibe than a cash vibe you know 10 years later he's starting to look more like a shipwreck tom hanks than cash raj so uh if there's a cash raj in your lives ladies and gents just keep an eye out help them out if need to be yeah and thank you lastly but not leastly
