Starting point is 00:00:00 Will there ever be a boat that can fly? What is soup made out of? All of these questions you can find the answer to on This Paranormal Life! Welcome everyone to This Paranormal Life, the comedy paranormal podcast where every week we investigate a brand new paranormal case and at the end of it, we'll come to a conclusion
Starting point is 00:00:22 as to whether or not that case is true or it is false. My name is Rory Powers. This guy's name is Kit Greer. Thank you, thank you. And Kit, I'm really excited about today's case because, you know, I did introduce this as a comedy podcast. Sure. But comedy's out, all right? What people like these days is freaking bone dry serial killer drama horrible stories
Starting point is 00:00:48 about murders right but i mean we've been like nominated for like comedy awards and stuff like i think it might be a little out of left field if we just ditch all of that yeah blue well you know what's a joke our listenership all right we're in the thousand and i want the millions okay so if we could just i'm gonna change up the vibe for this week all right hey i'm willing to roll with it see how it goes this time awesome so we'll keep it serious bone keep it chill obviously like throw in a couple jokes now and again what to keep it light but but don't take but also don't light but dry it's a comedy podcast throw a bit. Okay, so dry and wet simultaneously.
Starting point is 00:01:26 Let's get started in today's episode. All right. I'm confused, but let's go. It's 1961. The Cold War. Tension between the United States and the Soviet Union are higher than ever. The quest for nuclear weapons. The constant tension.
Starting point is 00:01:41 And of course, the space race. Of course. tension and of course the space race of course the ultimate contest to see which country would first successfully land a manned spacecraft on the moon now these were the days where the technological advancements of war were quick and dirty scientists working around the clock to create the furthest traveling missile the most destructive bomb anything to give their country's military the edge yeah they weren't really uh like colliding particles or uh like trying to find different principles of physics it was like how many men can we kill in a nanosecond 100 that's the that's all you need to know when it comes down to war they had like thousands of scientists just trying
Starting point is 00:02:22 to make the biggest bullet ever made yeah they didn't even have the big gun yet we'll start with the bullet work backwards backwards once we've got the bullet we'll know what kind of gun we're working with now of course these days if you want to see what kind of rocket russia is building you just fire up your computer hack their gmail account and bit torrent the schematics but back in the early days of the Cold War, it wasn't that easy. The best way America could keep up to date with what missiles and rockets the Soviets were testing was to steal those rockets when they landed back on Earth. Ooh, okay.
Starting point is 00:02:59 So they're launching unmanned rockets that they go into space to do, like, I don't know, research or some shit testing yeah but then they eventually have to crash back down and you're saying they nab them then yeah yeah and this isn't even just um uh technology related to the space race missiles test planes okay anything that's kind of sent out with no intention of being uh collected at some point all right america is like a dirty little uh scavenger just traveling the world grabbing all this material and i guess you know we were a little young as in little half-baked little not we weren't really existing yet during the time of the cold war but i guess that that's what this meant it was like a time of like
Starting point is 00:03:44 political tension so they weren't like outright killing each other but they were taking carte blanche of each other's shit yeah oh yeah yeah i'm trying to outdo each other so what we essentially have is america traveling the world recovering the technology of their enemies existing under the name Moon Dust, the operation was a secret covert project organized by the United States Air Force and their Missile Development Center at Holloman Air Force Base. Wow. The official aim for the project was to, quote, Exploit the discovery of Soviet hardware when it temporarily landed in American hands. I mean, it's pretty shameless, but hey, can't blame them.
Starting point is 00:04:28 Yeah, I mean, if it's there to gank, take it. Now, because of the nature of the mission, Operation Moondust was paired with Project Bluefly, another former covert project during the Cold War that was to exploit the discovery of Soviet hardware when it landed in American or Allied hands. Now I know what you're thinking. These seem weirdly similar. Almost redundant to have top secret operations doing the same thing. Well, what we'll discover today, Kit, is that the US military are a bunch of tricky rat bastards.
Starting point is 00:05:03 And there's more to project moon dust than meets the eye oh do you want to like so you're saying that i want to do a joke or something i don't want it's just it's been pretty dry so far yeah like i've been rattling off facts and stuff i just feel a bit bad sure i mean do a joke okay fine so because i said i said we're doing it seriously but it doesn't mean switch off okay you know all right well you said do it dry but that's fine i'll throw in a joke okay so wow you thought project moondust sounded bad i mean get a load of of project bluefly i mean yeah sun's sun's like super super weak doesn't it you watch yourself okay i said i said joke excuse i didn't say take the i was making light of it i don't that's what that's
Starting point is 00:05:54 what i said it's a serious case i said joke now and again but don't take the piss okay you come to me with this blue fly shit so you need me to make a joke Yet somehow Punch up Play it straight Yeah play it straight but joke now and again So it's not just a snore fest Can you possibly Give me an example
Starting point is 00:06:18 Of how I would keep it straight But also tell a joke I'm making it as black and white as possible Alright in full colour Those are contradicting terms straight but also tell a joke it's very i'm making it as black and white as possible all right in full color i'm gonna stick to those are contradicting i'm gonna stick to the script all right but we have to be able to improvise a little bit look we'll just i'll keep on with this story be warned it's a little dry and a little serious so it wouldn't hurt to throw in it wouldn't hurt to throw in a couple of jokes now and again okay okay i can see you're getting
Starting point is 00:06:46 stressed i'm gonna try my best in this next section i'm just worried because we're down lighting it up just a tiny we're down to like six subscribers okay they're dropping like that can't be right is that right it's getting real low all right and i just blue flies huh right you out of the sky across the line dude let go of my arm i'm sorry i'm getting stressed um i just think if we if we actually bring a case with a lot of research yeah in preparation our six listeners will really appreciate it and they might hell they might hang around for a little bit longer well not with you chastising me every 30 seconds yeah well well well well certainly not if i'm co-hosting with a clown dropping punch
Starting point is 00:07:26 lines every other sentence you asked me to joke you asked me to tell jokes let's just you said let's just move on with the story make it both black and white and technicolor now project moondust didn't exclusively recover the remains of satellites in the united states but all over the world in south africaivia, and according to one source, even as far away as the Himalayan mountains. Damn, a Mount Everest? This meant recruiting a lot of personnel to help. Enter Clifford Stone, a military sergeant who was brought in to assist with the recovery process. You see, not knowing what technology the Soviets were working on, each recovered object had to be treated as a high level threat. You don't know if they were
Starting point is 00:08:12 testing nuclear weapons. You don't know if it was just a ball of knives that was fired through the sky. You have to treat every situation as if this thing is a nuclear reactor ready to blow makes sense i mean it stands to reason as well that if the soviets catch wind of what's happening and that they know the americans are ganking their technology at every turn they might start trying to weaponize that in some way they're gonna weaponize these weapons what what easier way to trojan horse your way. Once fully trained to handle foreign materials in the recovery process, Stone began traveling with the team across the world, moving quickly to capture foreign technology as it crashed back to Earth. But the more missions Sergeant Stone was a part of, the stranger things became. Stone said that on some of the missions, there was additional personnel assigned right at the last minute who weren't army officials. The missions where these mysterious
Starting point is 00:09:20 men joined were always the most important and the strangest, taking the teams to unusual locations where the details of the recovery were not disclosed to the team. Wow. Very quickly, Stone found himself recovering crash technology the likes of which he'd never seen before. Sir, I've located the area of the crash site. Good work, Sergeant. Begin the salvage process. Did you say this was a Soviet rocket, sir? What's with the questions, Sergeant? Well, sir, it's... it's like nothing I've ever seen before. Far beyond anything the Soviets could possess.
Starting point is 00:09:59 Nope, it's Soviet, all right. The craft seems to be capable of interstellar travel. I mean, there's maps to parts of the galaxy that we haven't even... Yeah, that's Soviet, all right. The craft seems to be capable of interstellar travel. I mean, there's maps to parts of the galaxy that we haven't even... Yeah, that's Soviet. But, sir, I... Listen, Sergeant, any more questions about this craft, and you're going to need a recovery team to come pick you up. It's capable of interstellar travel.
Starting point is 00:10:22 I have f***ed Zeno. In the following months, it became obvious to Sergeant Stone of interstellar time. I have f***ed Zeno. In the following months, it became obvious to Sergeant Stone that Project Moondust wasn't just salvaging Soviet technology, but it was a cover for the U.S. military recovering UFOs that had crashed to Earth. Project Moondust,
Starting point is 00:10:42 combined with Project Bluefly, provided the perfect cover for these crafts to be taken back to united states research facilities to be reverse engineered by scientists this is ingenious so instead of duping only the public and relying on the entire military industrial complex not to blow the lid on it they're duping the dupes yeah they're duping their own men they're everyone beneath the goddamn president of the united states thinks these are soviet crafts and this is all that the recovery team know when they're signed on is we need you to help in this secret operation to recover soviet technology which is already pretty damn secretive yeah without it actually being about ufos yeah i mean i mean
Starting point is 00:11:33 like they don't it's not like these people know what's going on back there like you say this is the days of the the iron curtain no one knew what was going on back there yeah hell if they have plasma rays and interstellar boosters i don don't know that's what the Russians are up to. It's true. Folks, we are looking at a paranormal onion here. There are layers upon layers of covert operations covered by covert operations and at its core is probably the goddamn president. Clifford Stone worked for the military for years, eventually disclosing that he had not only worked on the recovery of alien technology,
Starting point is 00:12:10 but that on a number of occasions, the pilots of the crafts had been found alive. What? I mean, that's a little bit harder to cover up. Not when part of the recovery equipment is a 9mm. It's pretty easy to push that shit under the rug. One of the recovery people is like, Stand back, gentlemen. I speak Russian.
Starting point is 00:12:33 He's like, in Russian, Gentlemen, are you safe down there? Jesus! Stone said, I am prepared to state that I have been at locations where craft of unknown origin that did not originate on the face of this planet were there. I am prepared to state that while I was there, we saw living and dead bodies of entities that were not born on this planet.
Starting point is 00:12:58 I am prepared to state that they have a school to try and indoctrinate people. I never went to that school. I always refused. I am prepared to state that when I got out of the service in 1990, that they held me for two months so that I might better reconsider to stay in and not get out. In violation of the law, they held me for two months pending approval of my retirement. Weird.
Starting point is 00:13:24 Yeah. What does he mean, indoctrination are we talking like a little bit of adult education it's like here's why we did what we did or is it like more men in black style neuralyzer pen wipe their memories i think in this context, it's more, I think it obviously becomes pretty evident when you're dragging a freaking laser engine out of a piece of debris that you're not dealing with Soviet technology. Sure. When you're looking at the lifeless corpses of three little gray men, they're probably not Russians. No. gray men they're probably not russians no i think they offer this course uh to people who are serving in project blue fly and in project moon dust to just be like okay so you know this shit's real come to class we'll tell you all about it you're brought further into the circle we can
Starting point is 00:14:20 tell you more stuff you can uh move up the ranks in terms of these covert operations. It's actually a pretty polite way of doing things. They're like, listen, come along to the first class. See how you feel. You don't have to come back. He's like, cool. No worries. He gets there in the first day.
Starting point is 00:14:37 They lock him in a room. They're like, there's no class. We have your wife and children. If you tell anyone anything, we'll kill everyone. Capisce? Lesson one is the humans are the bad guys the aliens are actually pretty chill a lot of our soldiers actually defected over to planet spring break or whatever they actually have their own operation on planet spring break where they recover human technology and recycle it into booze i mean i appreciate the fact that sergeant stone just
Starting point is 00:15:06 turned it down i don't know anything about the military but it does confuse me that you have any say in the matter i mean i i get that there's like a give and a take here they can't it's difficult for them to disappear him that becomes a whole story in itself if he's not playing ball they can't just kill him yeah because then his family are gonna be like where is he is everyone for them to disappear him that becomes a whole story in itself if he's not playing ball they can't just kill him yeah because then his family are gonna be like where is he his everyone who knows him is gonna be like where is he but at the same time i sort of feel like they like what he just gets to it's just like a optional pe class he just says nah i don't feel like it and then he just gets to tell the world the truth yeah it's surprisingly relaxed
Starting point is 00:15:45 i mean when you think of the military you think of orders being given orders receiving orders yeah it's kind of like i mean isn't that a thing it's it's like if you disobey probably your superior you could probably get court-martialed you know get in trouble dishonorably discharged yeah if you're at war and you're you're you're in the trenches and your commanding officer goes like all right soldiers this is it this is the moment we've been training for all those push-ups sit-ups sleepless nights early mornings is for this moment right now the future of the earth is on our shoulders your children my children or their lives depend on this very second. Get over there and give them
Starting point is 00:16:27 hell. There's not going to be one guy that's like, no. I think there was a lot of people who said no. I'm pretty sure they were shot. I think that was the rule. Let's go boys. Die there or die here. Your choice. Even bigger yell. Well, interactions with UFO debris wasn't the only strange event Stone had been a part of. He said that soon after his NBC training, when he had already been involved in the secret recovery of alien crafts, he experienced one of the strangest interactions of his life. He was being dropped off by a friend to Fort Lee, Virginia. On the drive to the base, the pair began discussing some of the UFOs they had seen, the strange material, the impossible physics of it all. He was dropped off and his friend drove away. Several weeks later, Stone
Starting point is 00:17:18 got a phone call from the same friend saying, Hey, I'm up at Fort Meade. Do you think you could come by and talk? He sounded a little off, but Stone didn't think anything of it. So he drove to Fort Meade to meet with his friend. But when he arrived, Stone was greeted by a stranger. The man said, your friend is a little tied up we'll talk about his situation as soon as he gets free he's tied up that's his situation we don't know that that he could be using it as a i didn't say that the man said by the way have you ever been to the Pentagon? This guy loves his job, by the way. Oh, yeah. At this time, Stone hadn't. So the man said, well, it is a really unique place.
Starting point is 00:18:13 Why don't we go ahead and give you the 25 cent tour? If anyone talks to you like that, best believe they have access to a button that will drop you into a pool of piranhas yeah drop of a hat but that's also the kind of authority and power you can't say no to oh of course i'm assuming this officer has so many goddamn stars on his uniform it looks like a galaxy yeah it's like you know if the sun hits him at the right angle he could cook a chicken with a magnified beam that's how shiny this bastard is because there's two types of guy in the military in popular culture at least there's the guy that we often reference who is doing the motivational speaking of course and then there's the guy who has so much political clout so much military prowess he doesn't even need to raise
Starting point is 00:19:04 his voice yeah oh yeah that's how powerful he is you listen here this is the way it's gonna go yeah yeah yeah that guy's fought in wars that are so secret we haven't even heard of them clifford said so we went on over we went in i had a little badge that was given to me with no picture on it. But the guy that was with me, he's had a picture. And he just tell the guards, he's authorized to come with me. Finally, we got to a place that has an elevator. We went down on it. I don't know how far down we went.
Starting point is 00:19:35 I can't tell you if there's one flight under the Pentagon, two, or fifty. But we went down. When we get out there, there are two monorails. I mean, there are monorails under the Pentagon. They look like big tubes, rather thick in the center, one on each side. So you had these little monorails with cars that looked like a bullet. We got on one monorail and started to go. It seemed like maybe 20 minutes minutes but i'm guessing that because
Starting point is 00:20:06 i don't know for sure what happened to his sense of time and space well i mean they've got a pretty tight operation down there i mean bullet trains to secret bases under the pentagon how big is this thing i thought i've seen a photo of the pentagon it's not that big yeah on top it isn't but it's like a goddamn iceberg that's right and the u.s is the titanic that's been struck by it folks get real political when we got out he says well let me show you some interesting sights down this corridor here so we're going down the corridor and as we get closer and closer to that door, my guide turned to me and stated, you know, things aren't always as they seem to be. It is just like the walls here.
Starting point is 00:20:58 They don't seem like walls. What? I replied, what do you mean they're not walls stop speaking in riddles damn it it's like the wall behind you i look and it looks like a wall to me there's no seams or anything then he pushes me i try to grab myself but there's actually a door that opened. That was a very elaborate way of, I think what he's trying to say is, there's a motion sensor door. It was like the first ever supermarket automatic door. And they were like, we spent trillions of military budget on this thing.
Starting point is 00:21:39 He said, the windows down here aren't really windows. I didn't understand what he said, but they parted right down the middle to a store. Convenient, see? Snacks, drinks, everything you could want. He called it a meal deal. Southern fried chicken pasta, a Monster Energy drink, and crisps, all for the price of three pounds. Look, all this food. It looks fresh, doesn't it?
Starting point is 00:22:03 But look at the sell-by date. Oh my god, it lasts for months. Look, all this food. It looks fresh, doesn't it? But look at the sell-by date. Oh my god, it lasts for months. So, he pushed him into a wall that turned out to be a door. Alright? While you go through the door, there's like this little field table there. And behind the field table, you had this little entity. The entity was a little bigger than the three, three and a half foot tall entities that are a lot of times reported, but there were two men on either side of the table, slightly behind
Starting point is 00:22:30 the creature. When I turned around, I looked right into the eyes of this little creature. And you know, it's like you're seeing it, but everything is being pulled from you. It's being pulled from your mind. He was reading my whole life. It's hard to describe what I really felt there. Your life up to that point goes by in seconds. I remember going down, grabbing hold of my head, and falling to the floor. The next thing I remember, I wake up and I'm back in my friend's office at Fort Meade. Officers told me nothing had happened,
Starting point is 00:23:06 that I'd been there the whole day, but I knew better. Weird thing to say to a guy who just woke up. Yeah. Nothing happened. You've been here the whole day. I can't believe they pushed him into the interview room with a gray. What the hell?
Starting point is 00:23:22 Who zapped his life out of his body till he passed out i mean why bring him there to push him into an alien to have him pass out to drag him back to the fort and tell him nothing ever happened i'm gonna go on a limb here and say that on account of the whole thing making no sense right there being apparently a city underneath the pentagon yeah and then he woke up in a room there's a lot of there's a lot of things here to decipher to digest he dreamed the whole thing we don't know we don't know that we don't know that okay look we we think it cliffordord Stone, unfortunately, died in 2014. Wow. So we can't even really ask him these questions.
Starting point is 00:24:09 But in his life, he was part of something called the Disclosure Project. Okay. Now, this is right up our alley. The Disclosure Project is an organization dedicated to disclosing, unclassifying, dedicated to disclosing, unclassifying, and conducting hearings related to shadow governments, UFOs, and extraterrestrial life. That all sounds fantastic. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:24:37 Now, at first glance, granted, it sounds like a club for the crazies. But the Disclosure Project has over 400 members, many of which are ex-government, military, and scientific officials. Wow. I'd never heard of this group before. No. So I did a little research into it. I genuinely wrote out some of the credentials of members just to show you how insane it is that these people are in this group. Okay. insane uh it is that these people are in this group okay so some of the credentials we have navy commander pilot general with top secret clearance air force intelligence officer
Starting point is 00:25:13 five-star admiral the former head of the british ministry of defense former state senator nasa research scientist defense intelligence agency official i mean the qualifications go on that's a lot of medals yeah these are these are people that have literally no reason to join this club other than the fact that they believe this happened it did happen and they were a part of it that's pretty damn fascinating yeah i i know what you mean it at the very least it means that they were privy to enough weirdness in their career that they want to know the truth yeah and at most it means they were all best buds with greys until the day they retired and they got torn away from them and now they want the world to know that they hang out with aliens because who wouldn't as much as we uh joke about the ridiculousness of going to the pentagon and the
Starting point is 00:26:12 underground city and being pushed into a room with an alien sure i will say that everything else that we learned about uh project moon dust and project blue I mean, it's real to a certain extent. These were secret military operations that through the Freedom of Information Act, all of it was declassified. There are actual government documents that I have seen online talking about Project Moondust, recovering Soviet technology,
Starting point is 00:26:42 and there's even a couple mentions of unidentified flying objects yeah i mean it's it's indisputable that there wasn't secret government shady shit going down granted it is another level to talk about the secret city under the pentagon yes and some of these other theories that pop up but there's a certain degree of fact to this insanity what i didn't mention about uh the disclosure project is that one of the main members stephen m greer believes that marilyn monroe had an affair with robert kennedy who told her about the project and the ufos and she threatened to reveal the truth and the government assassinated her. But that's just one opinion from one member of the group.
Starting point is 00:27:28 Listen, you know, a group of people like that, they're not just going to have one or two interests in life. They're going to have a bunch of different ideas. Sure, they all like the disclosure project. Hey, I'm sure some of them like golf too. Hey, some of them like baking at the weekends. Other people think that Marlon Monroe almost revealed state secrets. Yeah, but you know, that's par for the course. It's got to be tough when you're in that group and you're out like a meeting and it's like, we need to tell people about the truth that the government doesn't
Starting point is 00:28:02 want the public to know. And if someone in the crowd is like we need to disclose the information of of project blue book yeah all right here we go yeah we need to tell people what really happened at roswell yeah yeah elvis presley the king of rock and roll, is in this room right now as a demon. Thank you, Carl. Always a pleasure to have you at the meetings. Who let him renew his membership? I thought we talked about this. He found a loophole, actually, in the system that he's actually running the meetings.
Starting point is 00:28:41 So, actually, my time is up. Carl is going to be leading the seminar for the next, uh, how long are you going to be doing it for Carl? 45 minutes tops. All right. So we got 45 minutes on Carl talking about Elvis, the demon. Possible locations of where Tupac may still be alive and recording. Carl walks up to the mic. All right. Welcome everyone to the next segment of today's speeches. I want everyone to turn to your left. Now everyone turn to your right. Both of the people sitting beside you are Elvis. He can multiply like an agent. He can take human form. People are filing out of the room as he keeps going.
Starting point is 00:29:27 All right, kids, we went on a bit of a journey here. We not only investigated- On a bullet monorail train. We not only investigated Project Moondust, we briefly talked about Operation Bluefly. We talked about Clifford Stone. And I mean, I didn't even scratch the surface on what Clifford went through i mean he's met and talked with aliens he's been through it all he's recovered crafts from all over the
Starting point is 00:29:53 universe this guy's written books on the universe oh yeah oh yeah he's he's he's done some crazy stuff um and i've also talked about this operation, the Disclosure Project, where over 400 qualified ex-members of government have decided enough is enough. You know, all of them and Carl are going to change the world and tell people the secrets of the government and also that Elvis might be a demon. What are your thoughts listen we always love to hear stories like these where we can literally flick through historical military records for potential exercises in researching the paranormal because it's a goddamn treasure trove there's there's been a ton of them yeah out there and like you say there is no doubt with this that there is some element of project blue book and some element of project moon dust that had a
Starting point is 00:30:51 paranormal motive that they were at least going into that operation with the potential to recover experimental craft from potentially beyond this galaxy the greater question is of course is there enough evidence to link the verifiable existence of those projects with the uh pretty outlandish claims of clifford and potentially what the disclosure project are saying as well yeah that's very well said because i think it's one thing to look at this case and be like what's there to debate we have unclassified documents that talk about operation moon dust and it talks about ufos it's all there in the paperwork right but kind of what we have in the paperwork is no more than the government saying that the the project is involved in recovering ufos it doesn't say that they ever got one it doesn't have pictures of anything and what we
Starting point is 00:31:53 have there is the statement with none of the evidence so i think it's difficult we're looking at a lot of things here but i think we need to narrow it down to just Project Moondust. Okay, I can do that. And it's not whether or not the project was created to find UFOs, it's whether or not that we think that this project ever really did interact with alien crafts, making it paranormal. Which is a really tough question, because I'm excited to hear what you say because I have literally no idea where I'm going to fall on this one. I think that Operation
Starting point is 00:32:32 Moondust, Project Blue Book, this definitely is the most believable scope for actually successfully coming into contact with UFOs because they're across, they're international, they're across all continents, they're using relatively modern technologies to scan the skies and the upper atmosphere yeah for all signs of military like technologies so if anyone's going to see it they are yet at the same time we do seem to have a lack of first-hand witnesses even compared to some other UFO investigations we've covered recently. I think, you know what,
Starting point is 00:33:07 maybe this is a reflection of the fact that there's not a lot of very specific information online about Project Moondust, except for the fact that it exists. I mean, Roswell, we talked about that before, where the government came and ganked a bunch of shit. We just assumed it was a bunch of people being told what to do. That could have been some super secret operation.
Starting point is 00:33:31 Project Mars Dust or some shit. I have no idea. We don't know. It's secret. Project goddamn Dorito Dust. So I think that's the problem that I'm facing with this. I mean, when it comes down to it, do I think Project Moondust ever came in contact with a craft from out of this universe?
Starting point is 00:33:53 Yeah, probably. Do I have any evidence to prove it? No. Does that make it a no or a yes? I don't know. It's okay to disagree at times. I didn't take the lead in this investigation, so I haven't seen enough to convince me.
Starting point is 00:34:11 And that's why today I'm coming down on a no. All right. I don't think it happened. All right. I'm going to say yes. Okay. All right. So we're officially at war, you and I.
Starting point is 00:34:24 I'm starting Operation F*** Off, where anything in the studio that's yours, I will be ganking for research purposes. Dismantling, reverse engineering. That's my electric toothbrush. How does it work? Wow. Hey, it's been a while since we've had... A rare disagreement.
Starting point is 00:34:43 Oh my God. On the cast. So that's it. That a while since we've had. A rare disagreement. Oh my God. On the cast. So that's it. That's the end of the podcast. This is our last episode. I'm pretty sure it's like, it's been this and Bigfoot. It's the major disagreement.
Starting point is 00:34:57 So that's the show over now because we disagreed once. Yeah, it doesn't have to. Shout out to our six listeners who are still here you made it to the end congratulations you completed it um yeah not often that we have a yes or no on the podcast i was a little torn up about that one but i had to go with my gut in the end and my gut says yes hey that's the right decision to make bro i know it was a bit of a
Starting point is 00:35:21 serious one this week uh with just a lot of facts and stories to get through but to lighten the tension keep it bubbly kit's gonna hit us home with a joke right now you know just give us that little comedic lift at the end of a serious one hey you want to hear a great goddamn joke yes this entire episode wow the thing the whole thing was a joke and i don't know why you're talking about it being bubbly because your attitude has been uh almost the exact opposite of bubbly this entire episode i can't believe you would say that you already knew this isn't bubbly you already knew it was a serious one borderline too serious this isn't this isn't fun podcasting for people listen to you i i agree with you because it's too serious this is absolutely too serious you should feel ashamed you should be embarrassed for yourself
Starting point is 00:36:12 look it's been serious the whole freaking thing we got at each other a bit at the end there was a disagreement i just think like a joke to end it and then we'll do shout outs um uh knock knock who's there a wall a wall who do you get it it's like because we're in the pentagon so it's like it's not a door it's a it's a wall because i asked i asked for a light-hearted joke all right i didn't i didn't ask you it was based on i didn't ask you to***ing piss out of the story that I had just presented. There's a difference, alright, you son of a bitch, between telling a joke and turning the whole thing into a big joke.
Starting point is 00:36:54 You said the same word twice. Now I gotta do a straight read of the outro because I think things are getting a little...

Yeah, they think that she's in some kind of space-time stasis. So she'll probably emerge in the year 3000, not a day older, honestly. Can't wait. Thanks also to Trudy Johnson. Wow, if it isn't Judge Trudy.
Starting point is 00:41:02 Wow. Yeah, everyone already only knows about Judge Judy, the mean one. But there is actually a twin who's the nice one. It doesn't make as interesting TV because... Just lets everyone off, really. Like serial killers go up and Judge Trudy's like, Hey, it's got nothing to do with me. Get out of here, you little scamp.

Starting point is 00:42:18 Thanks also to Gary Russell McNamara. Gary, I don't want to Russell you too much, but how would you like to be the understudy to play Kit in the feature film This Paranormal Life? This can't be. I don't even get to be my own understudy. No, you didn't make the cut.
Starting point is 00:42:34 You didn't make the cut. I wasn't auditioned. You didn't even tell me this feature film was happening. Buddy, we've done 120 f***ing episodes of the podcast. You've auditioned. Trust me. At least tell me this is like, just like a weekend for fun indie flick.
Starting point is 00:42:49 Well, it's going to be part of the MCU. We're actually being brought in in stage two. Are you kidding me? It's crazy. That's why Tom had to turn it down. Conflicts. In what universe does this make any sense? How are we part of the MCU?
Starting point is 00:43:02 Well, to start, Gary's got the time stone. So that pretty much explains a lot of it. Is this real or fictitious anymore? Well, f***ing congratulations Gary, I guess. Jesus. Can I at least be like, get you coffee or something? Thanks also to Josh! Josh, I have a proposition for you.
Starting point is 00:43:22 Don't do it. There's gonna be a lot of stunts in this movie, and obviously I'll be doing my own, but how would you like to be the stuntman for Kit in the film? Am I doing, like, dope stunts? What's going on? The character, Kit, is going to be doing dope stunts. Right.
Starting point is 00:43:36 Front flips, back flips, side flips. Because the character, Kit, is pretty dope and jacked. Yeah, he's actually, like a uh really just cool version um of kit the real life character okay um and obviously the rory character is cool too and i kind of fit that that uh that role a little bit more uh i can flip i flip every day i back flip out of bed into my jeans so me i think and josh is the stuntman are really gonna piece this thing together so excited to have you're your own sorry man what i'm my own i'm doing my own stunts yeah why did you just say that as if i was talking over you what sorry did you ask a question you don't even

Starting point is 00:44:35 Her height, one foot. Her width, one foot. She's a cube. A box? Yeah, she's... I shouldn't really refer to her as as she because it is a bomb. Right. That's just the name the SWAT team have given her.
Starting point is 00:44:49 Really? Couple Amber Amber. They gave her a double-barreled name. That seems crazy. So I'm excited that you've become sentient and you enjoy the podcast. Please inform us if you are about to detonate. And, you know, we'll just back up. Just get a bit of distance.
Starting point is 00:45:03 Thanks also to Daniel Thompson. Daniel Thompson committed the top sin. Whoa. Which is essentially all of the sins of the world combined into one. That doesn't seem good. It's when you are envious of God's chicken sandwich. And you steal it and eat it. Gly yeah and then jack off that's yeah that's pretty bad uh whatever that one is deviant it's at least embarrassing yeah it's really bad
Starting point is 00:45:35 and it is the top sin uh which i guess you know there's not many people in that club that can tick that box but all of them are in hell So at least you guys have that in common. It's pretty baller you pulled it off. You commit that one, you go straight to solitary. Thanks also to Katie. Wow, we're supported by Skatey Katie, the girl who can skate at everything. She can ice skate, roller skate, skateboard.
Starting point is 00:46:01 She does it all. In fact, she even is so passionate about it, she combined all of her favorites together and built a rollerblading skateboard with ice skates on her hands the most nuts thing is that she can't walk she can't she's scared shitless of walking uh she didn't basically move until her teens when she was bought Heelys for the first time. She could suddenly skate. It was a miracle. Doctors
Starting point is 00:46:30 couldn't believe what they were seeing. They tried everything except Heelys, to be honest. Thanks also to Sabrina Eves. Sabrina Eves, I believes that you are thieves. What? A lot of shit's gone missing in the paranormal commune, and I have one suspect.
Starting point is 00:46:46 Sabrina. Thieves. Everything's gone missing. The eggs. The chicken poppers. The golden chalice at the Christine Chapel. There's not a lot of shit in the commune. So when something goes missing, it's pretty obvious.
Starting point is 00:46:59 Yeah, it's pretty bad. So if you could please just... Look, we'll put a box out in the courtyard. You can just return the objects. Sabrina, we'd really appreciate it. She stole the box. We're now down a box. Sabrina, goddammit.
Starting point is 00:47:14 Master thief. Thanks also to Amber Scruggs. Amber Scruggs. That's a name that belongs on the credit roll of a brand new Marvel film. Surely not. Amber, we're looking for a first AD because the first first AD just dropped out. What? Who is that? Christopher Nolan.
Starting point is 00:47:35 He was the... Who's directing? He's the AD. Yeah. That is insane. Yeah, it's a big film. He only does his own shit he couldn't even get director on this film guess who's directing i can't imagine it's me i'm directing i'm starring and i refuse to believe this and amber i think you have the infinity stones you seem to be wielding
Starting point is 00:47:59 the universe at your will this is obscene welcome to the big leagues amber congrats whatever thanks lastly but not leastly to jacob miller we actually wanted to treat the commune so we uh we ordered a full truck of miller just so that everyone could enjoy some some icy beers on tax day the truck arrived and it's just jacob miller in a van uh we didn't realize that it wasn't a beer it was just a guy um so he just unloaded himself onto a horde of thirsty uh commune members i can't imagine that went well we tried to drink him yeah i tried to drink him but he's just a man you can't he doesn't try to puree him down like a like an orange juice it didn't work work. But now, look at him. He's one of us. He's one of the very, very thirsty commune members.
Starting point is 00:48:48 Thirsty, angry, taxed to the gills commune members. We couldn't do it without him. So thank you to everyone that we shouted out. I hope you enjoyed this week's episode of This Paranormal Life.
