00:04:21,959 it unique we've talked about this before 91 00:04:26,570 --> 00:04:25,199 to have a show go for this long but it's 92 00:04:28,790 --> 00:04:26,580 also unique to have the kind of 93 00:04:30,590 --> 00:04:28,800 chemistry that these folks have together 94 00:04:33,469 --> 00:04:30,600 I mean they really seem like a 95 00:04:35,450 --> 00:04:33,479 close-knit group of people uh how hard 96 00:04:39,290 --> 00:04:35,460 is it to find this kind of winning 97 00:04:42,710 --> 00:04:39,300 formula impossible it's impossible when 98 00:04:44,510 --> 00:04:42,720 I try to explain the idea of the odds 99 00:04:48,290 --> 00:04:44,520 here of this happening this is like the 100 00:04:50,510 --> 00:04:48,300 Powerball right it is it it's to work in 101 00:04:52,430 --> 00:04:50,520 the industry for so long you try and you 102 00:04:54,710 --> 00:04:52,440 try you try to get a show on air and 103 00:04:56,629 --> 00:04:54,720 then when you do you pray the you know 104 00:04:58,490 --> 00:04:56,639 Season One turns into season two and 105 00:05:01,310 --> 00:04:58,500 it's like oh my God that's the win in 106 00:05:03,710 --> 00:05:01,320 season three oh my God

numbers came out the early reads on 110 00:05:12,290 --> 00:05:09,600 the ratings and were up from last season 111 00:05:14,270 --> 00:05:12,300 premiere so that's a big thing fantastic 112 00:05:15,710 --> 00:05:14,280 you know fingers crossed uh that it 113 00:05:17,030 --> 00:05:15,720 keeps trending that way because now it's 114 00:05:18,170 --> 00:05:17,040 all about the trend right so where do we 115 00:05:20,270 --> 00:05:18,180 go from here 116 00:05:22,850 --> 00:05:20,280 um networks look at those numbers very 117 00:05:24,770 --> 00:05:22,860 intently and uh but yes the chemistry of 118 00:05:25,909 --> 00:05:24,780 these guys it's the real deal I was just 119 00:05:27,350 --> 00:05:25,919 I was trying to pull up on my phone 120 00:05:28,430 --> 00:05:27,360 because

00:06:11,050 --> 00:06:07,620 still out there working Tom was all beat 139 00:06:13,550 --> 00:06:11,060 up dusty and dirty yesterday working so 140 00:06:15,230 --> 00:06:13,560 a quick follow-up to that so now that 141 00:06:17,510 --> 00:06:15,240 the show has had the success that it has 142 00:06:20,270 --> 00:06:17,520 I mean is it kind of easier to get folks 143 00:06:22,070 --> 00:06:20,280 interested in showing up to the ranch to 144 00:06:24,590 --> 00:06:22,080 help them conduct these experiments I 145 00:06:26,629 --> 00:06:24,600 would imagine that's open some doors it 146 00:06:29,090 --> 00:06:26,639 isn't yeah Eric's beating people off of 147 00:06:30,529 --> 00:06:29,100 a stick essentially everyone wants to be 148 00:06:32,150 --> 00:06:30,539 a part piece of it 149 00:06:35,330 --> 00:06:32,160 um but that's what happens you know 150 00:06:36,830 --> 00:06:35,340 there's property and not not a physical 151 00:06:38,990 --> 00:06:36,840 property but an intellectual property 152 00:06:41,510 --> 00:06:39,000 and people aren't a part of that and so 153 00:06:42,890 --> 00:06:41,520 you know you'll see vendors you call 154 00:06:43,969 --> 00:06:42,900 them vendors right people just coming 155 00:06:47,090 --> 00:06:43,979 out with their Wares and they're 156 00:06:49,070 --> 00:06:47,100 bringing stuff on and it's you know it 157 00:06:50,270 --> 00:06:49,080 it's a vehicle for them it's a vehicle 158 00:06:53,150 --> 00:06:50,280 for you 159 00:06:55,730 --> 00:06:53,160 um you know there's it's like in-kind 160 00:06:58,189 --> 00:06:55,740 advertising is a way to look at it uh 161 00:07:00,529 --> 00:06:58,199 you know back in my back Jason I was 162 00:07:01,670 --> 00:07:00,539 doing a home renovation show used to do 163 00:07:02,930 --> 00:07:01,680 these things 164 00:07:05,809 --> 00:07:02,940 um everything has a dollar value 165 00:07:07,909 --> 00:07:05,819 attached to it so a mention is more 166 00:07:09,950 --> 00:07:07,919 valuable than say like a mention like 167 00:07:11,870 --> 00:07:09,960 someone physically saying your name of 168 00:07:14,150 --> 00:07:11,880 your product is more valuable than like 169 00:07:16,010 --> 00:07:14,160 say a logo shop 170 00:07:18,650 --> 00:07:16,020 um you know which is more valuable than 171 00:07:21,170 --> 00:07:18,660 say you know a pan of a logo so 172 00:07:22,969 --> 00:07:21,180 everything has a value and so in trade 173 00:07:24,409 --> 00:07:22,979 it was like hey 174 00:07:25,670 --> 00:07:24,419 um we're going to show the brand of your 175 00:07:27,469 --> 00:07:25,680 store you guys are going to wear 176 00:07:28,610 --> 00:07:27,479 t-shirts for your store 177 00:07:30,589 --> 00:07:28,620 um but we need you to provide us with 178 00:07:31,850 --> 00:07:30,599 Cabinetry so they'll provide cabinets 179 00:07:34,850 --> 00:07:31,860 and then then they get at 180 00:07:36,469 --> 00:07:34,860 pre-advertising in that way so that's 181 00:07:37,450 --> 00:07:36,479 kind of the way it works well that's 182 00:07:40,790 --> 00:07:37,460 great 183 00:07:43,309 --> 00:07:40,800 what's that so my presence out at the 184 00:07:47,110 --> 00:07:43,319 ranch is worth how much there's a value 185 00:07:51,890 --> 00:07:49,370 they can't put a price on it yeah I 186 00:07:55,129 --> 00:07:51,900 cannot afford you the like a Vente sort

00:09:01,730 --> 00:08:58,680 his passions so he's he does bring these 209 00:09:03,769 --> 00:09:01,740 acoustic experts out uh to kind of you 210 00:09:04,850 --> 00:09:03,779 know evaluate stuff in a way that you're 211 00:09:07,910 --> 00:09:04,860 not going to get normally right like 212 00:09:09,590 --> 00:09:07,920 it's not that that's kind of the the way 213 00:09:11,930 --> 00:09:09,600 you can justify bringing someone like 214 00:09:13,430 --> 00:09:11,940 them out there to a spot that is that 215 00:09:17,329 --> 00:09:13,440 that dangerous 216 00:09:17,930 --> 00:09:17,339 um it

artist without 220 00:09:26,509 --> 00:09:24,300 knowing something about audio and 221 00:09:29,150 --> 00:09:26,519 Acoustics and vibrations and I think 222 00:09:31,490 --> 00:09:29,160 that's that's kind of the the overlap 223 00:09:33,829 --> 00:09:31,500 there uh but yeah I imagine Brandon's 224 00:09:34,970 --> 00:09:33,839 contact at all the time I mean I know I 225 00:09:36,550 --> 00:09:34,980 contact him all the time and he very 226 00:09:40,509 --> 00:09:36,560 rarely gets back to me 227 00:09:43,970 --> 00:09:40,519 he hasn't gotten back to me either 228 00:09:46,130 --> 00:09:43,980 but he's he's a uh 229 00:09:47,150 --> 00:09:46,140 he lives it man he's in it he's living 230 00:09:47,810 --> 00:09:47,160 it 231 00:09:49,790 --> 00:09:47,820 um 232 00:09:52,250 --> 00:09:49,800 that guy I mean if you look at his 233 00:09:54,170 --> 00:09:52,260 activity online he you know two in the 234 00:09:56,329 --> 00:09:54,180 morning he's tweeting and then six in 235 00:09:58,370 --> 00:09:56,339 the morning just read it like 236 00:09:59,570 --> 00:09:58,380 I don't know he's he doesn't sleep he's 237 00:10:02,329 --> 00:09:59,580 a machine 238 00:10:05,329 --> 00:10:02,339 I wouldn't care to have him on uh 239 00:10:07,370 --> 00:10:05,339 because of who he is because of uh what 240 00:10:09,230 --> 00:10:07,380 his the fact just that he owns the ranch 241

--> 00:11:15,600 Awards everywhere 272 00:11:19,250 --> 00:11:17,459 um one of the things I'm always super 273 00:11:21,590 --> 00:11:19,260 curious about uh with people that are 274 00:11:23,030 --> 00:11:21,600 working producing writing creating in 275 00:11:25,310 --> 00:11:23,040 and around this subject is whose 276 00:11:27,470 --> 00:11:25,320 influence their approach 277 00:11:29,329 -->

--> 00:11:38,700 um 284 00:11:44,030 --> 00:11:40,440 I got to be honest my friends involved 285 00:11:48,170 --> 00:11:44,040 in my influences uh because I look at 286 00:11:53,569 --> 00:11:50,329 so to be a quote-unquote expert in any 287 00:11:55,610 --> 00:11:53,579 of the Paranormal anything right 288 00:11:57,949 --> 00:11:55,620 um 289 00:11:59,329 --> 00:11:57,959 an expert means in this field like that 290 00:12:02,509 --> 00:11:59,339 you have 291 00:12:03,710 --> 00:12:02,519 full historical knowledge of the stories 292 00:12:06,170 --> 00:12:03,720 and narratives 293 00:12:10,430 --> 00:12:06,180 that's what an expert is in this field 294 00:12:12,590 --> 00:12:10,440 there's no because we have no answers to 295 00:12:14,569 --> 00:12:12,600 anything so 296 00:12:17,630 --> 00:12:14,579 and there's there's good and bad to that 297 00:12:19,670 --> 00:12:17,640 right so so I don't take any inspiration 298 00:12:21,650 --> 00:12:19,680 or any kind of 299 00:12:22,850 --> 00:12:21,660 there's never been a narrative that I 300 00:12:24,290 --> 00:12:22,860 have followed that I haven't come up 301 00:12:26,090 --> 00:12:24,300 with myself 302 00:12:27,530 --> 00:12:26,100 um because my all of ours are just as 303 00:12:29,210 --> 00:12:27,540 validated as anyone else's I don't care 304 00:12:30,650 --> 00:12:29,220 if you're Jacques valet or whoever the 305 00:12:33,470 --> 00:12:30,660 heck you think you are 306 00:12:35,389 --> 00:12:33,480 you have an opinion yes it may be backed 307 00:12:37,430 --> 00:12:35,399 up by anecdotal data or even some big 308 00:12:38,870 --> 00:12:37,440 data either way 309 00:12:40,310 --> 00:12:38,880 um data you collected on your own that's 310 00:12:41,690 --> 00:12:40,320 great but you don't have any answers any 311 00:12:44,269 --> 00:12:41,700 more than anyone else does so you don't 312 00:12:45,530 --> 00:12:44,279 know anything I don't and I've always 313 00:12:48,170 --> 00:12:45,540 approached it like that I don't know 314 00:12:50,449 --> 00:12:48,180 anything and so I'm I am very very open 315 00:12:51,710 --> 00:12:50,459 and objected to all of this I don't 316 00:12:54,530 --> 00:12:51,720 claim 317 00:12:57,170 --> 00:12:54,540 any and I don't discount anybody's 318 00:12:58,490 --> 00:12:57,180 thoughts or feelings or experiences 319 00:13:00,650 --> 00:12:58,500 um I make room for everyone to talk 320 00:13:02,930 --> 00:13:00,660 about their stuff and I it could be just 321 00:13:04,610 --> 00:13:02,940 as valid as anybody else's so in that 322 00:13:07,069 --> 00:13:04,620 regard like in terms of inspiration like 323 00:13:08,750 --> 00:13:07,079 storytelling and thinking of this I've 324 00:13:10,910 --> 00:13:08,760 never really taken 325 00:13:13,550 --> 00:13:10,920 taking that like taking it from anybody 326 00:13:15,170 --> 00:13:13,560 else the thing this project in 327 00:13:16,910 --> 00:13:15,180 particular started off I like to say it 328 00:13:19,490 --> 00:13:16,920 like started off as a dare 329 00:13:21,650 --> 00:13:19,500 um because so I'm a TV guy first right 330 00:13:23,150 --> 00:13:21,660 so my history is all home renovation 331 00:13:25,009

you 337 00:13:38,090 --> 00:13:36,779 know I I look at a market you do it like 338 00:13:39,410 --> 00:13:38,100 an analysis of a market and you're like 339 00:13:41,090 --> 00:13:39,420 okay so what's popular right now and at 340 00:13:42,590 --> 00:13:41,100 this time Oak Island was super popular 341 00:13:44,690 --> 00:13:42,600 and so with Oak Island being popular 342 00:13:46,550 --> 00:13:44,700 it's like well if the way my mind always 343 00:13:48,590 --> 00:13:46,560 works is if that then what else if that 344 00:13:49,850 --> 00:13:48,600 thing what else and so I like kind of 345 00:13:52,190 --> 00:13:49,860 like you know take two great tastes to 346 00:13:54,350 --> 00:13:52,200 taste great together right so like when 347 00:13:56,449 --> 00:13:54,360 I pitch skin walker I pitched it as a 348 00:13:58,009 --> 00:13:56,459 paranormal Oak Island literally a 349 00:13:59,269 --> 00:13:58,019 paranormal Oak Island and they were like 350 00:14:00,230 --> 00:13:59,279 how could you do that where could we 351 00:14:01,430 --> 00:14:00,240 find that 352 00:14:03,590 --> 00:14:01,440 they're like there's only two places you 353 00:14:04,970 --> 00:14:03,600 could do that area 51 and you can walk a 354 00:14:06,110 --> 00:14:04,980 ranch and no one's ever been able to get 355 00:14:07,430 --> 00:14:06,120 into any of these one of those places 356 00:14:09,769 --> 00:14:07,440 and that's when it was like well 357 00:14:12,410 --> 00:14:09,779 challenge accepted and it took me two 358 00:14:14,690 --> 00:14:12,420 years and like a dog with a bone man no 359 00:14:17,990 --> 00:14:14,700 way I was giving up on that um and so 360 00:14:20,870 --> 00:14:18,000 once I found an opportunity 361 00:14:23,030 --> 00:14:20,880 um I think that the floodgates of 362 00:14:24,710 --> 00:14:23,040 the floodgates of information about this 363 00:14:26,329 --> 00:14:24,720 top these topics and how they all 364 00:14:28,190 --> 00:14:26,339 overlap with one another 365 00:14:30,170 --> 00:14:28,200 um hit me in a way I wasn't expecting 366 00:14:31,670 --> 00:14:30,180 but so like the creative part of it was 367 00:14:33,590 --> 00:14:31,680 I was looking I was a treaty person 368 00:14:35,389 --> 00:14:33,600 looking for an opportunity and looking 369 00:14:37,009 --> 00:14:35,399 for a project that no one was able to do 370 00:14:38,990 --> 00:14:37,019 before to kind of climb that mountain 371 00:14:40,189 --> 00:14:39,000 put my flag on it and that's what we did 372 00:14:41,449 --> 00:14:40,199 like a brought you skin walker Ranch and

00:15:03,660 that we can study something for a long 385 00:15:08,990 --> 00:15:07,019 period of time and get legitimate data 386 00:15:10,069 --> 00:15:09,000 collection going and you know make it 387 00:15:13,550 --> 00:15:10,079 repeatable 388 00:15:14,750 --> 00:15:13,560 build a data set study over and over and 389 00:15:16,009 --> 00:15:14,760 over and over and lock it down so don't 390

00:23:20,640 interesting it's going to be interesting 611 00:23:23,750 --> 00:23:21,840 um 612 00:23:26,210 --> 00:23:23,760 it definitely went up a level with the 613 00:23:28,490 --> 00:23:26,220 helicopter last season with the how the 614 00:23:30,649 --> 00:23:28,500 radar altimeter was spoofed how they 615 00:23:32,810 --> 00:23:30,659 then saw the object I think with a 616 00:23:34,130 --> 00:23:32,820 different uh they had some sort of 617 00:23:36,169 --> 00:23:34,140 optical device on the ground where they 618 00:23:38,990 --> 00:23:36,179 could see an object pass underneath the 619 00:23:41,690 --> 00:23:39,000 helicopter that I think really that 620 00:23:45,169 --> 00:23:41,700 really dialed it up last season so I I 621 00:23:47,450 --> 00:23:45,179 can see how with how far they pushed the 622 00:23:50,510 --> 00:23:47,460 envelope drilling into the side of the 623 00:23:52,690 --> 00:23:50,520 Mesa last season firing up into areas 624 00:23:55,730 --> 00:23:52,700 that they thought would would be 625 00:23:57,110 --> 00:23:55,740 provoking that the phenomenon you could 626 00:23:58,789 --> 00:23:57,120 only met they're going to go further 627 00:24:01,370 --> 00:23:58,799 this season because like we already did 628 00:24:03,049 --> 00:24:01,380 that we're going to dial it up now what 629 00:24:04,310 --> 00:24:03,059 I know 630 00:24:07,490 --> 00:24:04,320 um and we're digging that there's some 631 00:24:10,070 --> 00:24:07,500 digging Matt as we pass it to you I I 632 00:24:14,090 --> 00:24:10,080 asked TJ earlier on text message had he 633 00:24:17,870 --> 00:24:14,100 heard a Bigfoot activity on the ranch he 634 00:24:19,789 --> 00:24:17,880 hasn't and I I feel like I heard that 635 00:24:22,430 --> 00:24:19,799 there was Matt in in with your sources 636 00:24:24,470 --> 00:24:22,440 had you heard of anything prior to to 637 00:24:26,690 --> 00:24:24,480 Brandon buying it or had you heard 638 00:24:27,470 --> 00:24:26,700 anything about act Bigfoot activity on 639 00:24:29,630 --> 00:24:27,480 the ranch 640 00:24:31,669 --> 00:24:29,640 you know years ago I think it might have 641 00:24:33,830 --> 00:24:31,679 been Ghost Hunters the television series 642 00:24:37,850 --> 00:24:33,840 there was some paranormal team that 643 00:24:38,930 --> 00:24:37,860 visited the Ranch location uh on an 644 00:24:42,110 --> 00:24:38,940 episode 645 00:24:44,690 --> 00:24:42,120 and they had some activity that in my 646 00:24:48,110 --> 00:24:44,700 opinion was Bigfoot activity and not 647 00:24:49,610 --> 00:24:48,120 paranormal related uh I mean just the 648 00:24:51,830 --> 00:24:49,620 Classic they heard something walking 649 00:24:54,110 --> 00:24:51,840 around I think something threw a rock or 650 00:24:55,730 --> 00:24:54,120 a stick at them there were some 651 00:24:57,470 --> 00:24:55,740 vocalizations and it's just all stuff 652 00:24:58,909 --> 00:24:57,480 that would classically be attributed to 653 00:25:01,490 --> 00:24:58,919 Bigfoot 654 00:25:04,370 --> 00:25:01,500 um outside of that I mean 655 00:25:07,789 --> 00:25:04,380 obviously the area in general has a lot 656 00:25:11,690 --> 00:25:07,799 of stories in history and there's a an 657 00:25:14,570 --> 00:25:11,700 individual who I believe claims to have 658 00:25:17,149 --> 00:25:14,580 at once lived on the property adjacent 659 00:25:19,909 --> 00:25:17,159 to Skinwalker Ranch who's said some 660 00:25:22,070 --> 00:25:19,919 things over the years uh but you know 661 00:25:24,529 --> 00:25:22,080 it's all stories uh 662 00:25:26,090 --> 00:25:24,539 as far as actual reports from Skinwalker 663 00:25:28,730 --> 00:25:26,100 Ranch I'm not really familiar with any 664 00:25:31,430 --> 00:25:28,740 actual reports or anything 665 00:25:34,430 --> 00:25:31,440 um but there's some activity that could 666 00:25:36,169 --> 00:25:34,440 be considered uh like I said classic 667 00:25:42,710 --> 00:25:36,179 Bigfoot activity 668 00:25:46,010 --> 00:25:42,720 give me example things that in my 669 00:25:48,769 --> 00:25:46,020 opinion would seem uh the result of a 670 00:25:49,610 --> 00:25:48,779 human uh possibly 671 00:25:52,730 --> 00:25:49,620 um 672 00:25:55,669 --> 00:25:52,740 smacking on the outside of buildings uh 673 00:25:57,950 --> 00:25:55,679 objects being moved around property you 674 00:26:01,250 --> 00:25:57,960 know a lot of times It's associated with 675 00:26:02,870 --> 00:26:01,260 a haunting uh but if you go in and find 676 00:26:03,970 --> 00:26:02,880 tracks you know then you start asking 677 00:26:07,490 --> 00:26:03,980 other questions 678 00:26:10,310 --> 00:26:07,500 uh you know stick structures formations 679 00:26:12,590 --> 00:26:10,320 things of that nature uh strange 680 00:26:14,409 --> 00:26:12,600 primate-like vocalizations or human-like 681 00:26:18,169 --> 00:26:14,419 vocalizations 682 00:26:19,909 --> 00:26:18,179 uh you know classic howls and the siren 683 00:26:23,570 --> 00:26:19,919 Call that you uh here on the Internet 684 00:26:29,230 --> 00:26:23,580 it's called the Ohio howl uh 685 00:26:34,909 --> 00:26:32,990 yeah Matt moneymaker the uh guy from 686 00:26:36,830 --> 00:26:34,919 Skinwalker Ranch he was I don't know 687 00:26:38,570 --> 00:26:36,840 what his role at Skinwalker Ranch 688 00:26:41,149 --> 00:26:38,580 obviously he was the principal behind it 689 00:26:43,370 --> 00:26:41,159 the lawyer from La went to school in 690 00:26:45,950 --> 00:26:43,380 Ohio he's the one who got that recording 691 00:26:47,690 --> 00:26:45,960 in like 94 and 95 and it's an it's an 692 00:26:49,430 --> 00:26:47,700 amazing recording it's it's quite 693 00:26:50,930 --> 00:26:49,440 powerful to hear it because you're 694 00:26:53,210 --> 00:26:50,940 trying to figure out what animal would 695 00:26:54,950 --> 00:26:53,220 do that so sorry to interrupt Matt no 696 00:26:56,930 --> 00:26:54,960 you're good fire away with your question 697 00:26:59,630 --> 00:26:56,940 whenever you're ready sir I was just 698 00:27:01,730 --> 00:26:59,640 going to ask about uh whenever it comes 699 00:27:04,370 --> 00:27:01,740 to you know producing the actual 700 00:27:08,210 --> 00:27:04,380 television series I know a lot of 701 00:27:11,930 --> 00:27:08,220 research done in this sort of phenomenon 702 00:27:14,810 --> 00:27:11,940 is a lot of waiting game and a lot of 703 00:27:17,870 --> 00:27:14,820 time spent with no activity 704 00:27:19,669 --> 00:27:17,880 how do you handle that in producing a 705 00:27:21,649 --> 00:27:19,679 series and do you ever feel 706 00:27:24,350 --> 00:27:21,659 pressure to 707 00:27:26,390 --> 00:27:24,360 you know make things seem possibly more 708 00:27:28,490 --> 00:27:26,400 than they are or is there enough 709 00:27:29,390 --> 00:27:28,500 activity to keep the ball moving so to 710 00:27:32,269 --> 00:27:29,400 speak 711 00:27:33,950 --> 00:27:32,279 yeah so the just to be clear so the guys 712 00:27:35,690 --> 00:27:33,960 at Prometheus are doing the day-to-day 713 00:27:37,730 --> 00:27:35,700 production like those guys are ass 714 00:27:40,010 --> 00:27:37,740 kickers and they know what they're doing 715 00:27:42,289 --> 00:27:40,020 um this is everything is you know in 716 00:27:43,970 --> 00:27:42,299 television uh unscripted television is 717 00:27:48,470 --> 00:27:43,980 you know what I always call 718 00:27:49,970 --> 00:27:48,480 situationally scripted uh and so it is a 719 00:27:51,769 --> 00:27:49,980 you're scripting beats and you're 720 00:27:54,169 --> 00:27:51,779 scripting story arcs 721 00:27:56,690 --> 00:27:54,179 um and what we have the benefit of this 722 00:27:57,769 --> 00:27:56,700 show uh is that there are experiments so 723 00:27:58,909 --> 00:27:57,779 the experiments are going to drive the 724 00:28:01,190 --> 00:27:58,919 action 725 00:28:03,289 --> 00:28:01,200 um and the result so you can set them up 726 00:28:04,789 --> 00:28:03,299 and there's there's no need to you know 727 00:28:06,289 --> 00:28:04,799 what they would call Juice something 728 00:28:08,450 --> 00:28:06,299 like that you know back in the day 729 00:28:10,010 --> 00:28:08,460 people used to juice shows and they I'm 730 00:28:11,390 --> 00:28:10,020 sure that somebody show those people 731 00:28:14,990 --> 00:28:11,400 still do 732 00:28:16,370 --> 00:28:15,000 um but you know there's things a few 733 00:28:18,710 --> 00:28:16,380 things in this show that make it unique 734 00:28:22,310 --> 00:28:18,720 like Brandon has a lot to lose here 735 00:28:25,010 --> 00:28:22,320 nothing to gain like there's no bread as 736 00:28:27,890 --> 00:28:25,020 money is never gonna be coming from 737 00:28:28,970 --> 00:28:27,900 owning Skinwalker Ranch to be more money 738 00:28:30,529 --> 00:28:28,980 than 739 00:28:32,210 --> 00:28:30,539 you know he's ever gonna make for TV 740 00:28:33,409 --> 00:28:32,220 he's already made so there's no benefit 741 00:28:34,190 --> 00:28:33,419 to that 742 00:28:35,870 --> 00:28:34,200 um 743 00:28:38,090 --> 00:28:35,880 so he has everything to lose like this 744 00:28:40,909 --> 00:28:38,100 is a professionally expensive move for 745 00:28:42,649 --> 00:28:40,919 him to do this uh so you can't you could 746 00:28:44,210 --> 00:28:42,659 never have like things being created or 747 00:28:46,430 --> 00:28:44,220 falsified or anything like that like set 748 00:28:48,169 --> 00:28:46,440 up but the experiments help Drive the 749 00:28:50,570 --> 00:28:48,179 action then the results are where you 750 00:28:52,850 --> 00:28:50,580 know where the unknown happens right so 751 00:28:54,470 --> 00:28:52,860 as you're doing things it's like what's 752 00:28:56,810 --> 00:28:54,480 the response 753 00:28:58,730 --> 00:28:56,820 um and so you can script out the idea of 754 00:28:59,750 --> 00:28:58,740 we're going to run this experience I 755 00:29:01,370 --> 00:28:59,760 don't even know like I'm not part of 756 00:29:02,570 --> 00:29:01,380 that part of that creation like I was 757 00:29:04,909 --> 00:29:02,580 talking with Eric yesterday asking him 758 00:29:06,409 --> 00:29:04,919 like are you the this upcoming drone 759 00:29:08,630 --> 00:29:06,419 experiment yeah I still want to know the 760 00:29:10,130 --> 00:29:08,640 origin I was like was that you or was it 761 00:29:11,450 --> 00:29:10,140 one of the production guys 762 00:29:13,789 --> 00:29:11,460 um and he's like well no we kind of you 763 00:29:16,250 --> 00:29:13,799 know put together 764 00:29:18,169 --> 00:29:16,260 um talk about more experiments now like 765 00:29:20,029 --> 00:29:18,179 you know 766 00:29:22,669 --> 00:29:20,039 um like what other things that can be 767 00:29:25,490 --> 00:29:22,679 done in your future State uh you know if 768 00:29:27,830 --> 00:29:25,500 we're lucky enough to get there uh but 769 00:29:31,010 --> 00:29:27,840 you know that I would say though that 770 00:29:32,570 --> 00:29:31,020 would be a challenge there's never been 771 00:29:35,210 --> 00:29:32,580 I would think that would be a challenge 772 00:29:37,130 --> 00:29:35,220 if you are 773 00:29:38,930 --> 00:29:37,140 doing some kind of 774 00:29:40,970 --> 00:29:38,940 show about paranormal and without 775 00:29:43,370 --> 00:29:40,980 experiments like if the idea is 776 00:29:45,110 --> 00:29:43,380 observate solely observation I'm going 777 00:29:47,269 --> 00:29:45,120 to go here and see what happens 778 00:29:48,710 --> 00:29:47,279 I can imagine that's gotta be 779 00:29:51,529 --> 00:29:48,720 that's rough like you're shooting 780 00:29:53,510 --> 00:29:51,539 already like you know uh I want to say 781 00:29:56,090 --> 00:29:53,520 it is 782 00:29:57,710 --> 00:29:56,100 10 10 hours a minute 783 00:29:58,850 --> 00:29:57,720 15 hours a minute something like that 784 00:30:00,529 --> 00:29:58,860 right now 785 00:30:03,289 --> 00:30:00,539 um so you're capturing you'd be happy 786 00:30:04,789 --> 00:30:03,299 you have to capture way more uh without 787 00:30:06,830 --> 00:30:04,799 experiments so 788 00:30:08,389 --> 00:30:06,840 yeah I can see the frustration if you 789 00:30:10,730 --> 00:30:08,399 didn't have the experiments to lean on 790 00:30:12,769 --> 00:30:10,740 it luckily I've never had to have bad 791 00:30:15,110 --> 00:30:12,779 habit so 792 00:30:17,690 --> 00:30:15,120 the experiments are provocative and that 793 00:30:19,970 --> 00:30:17,700 elicits a response from the phenomenon 794 00:30:22,130 --> 00:30:19,980 and that just is gold because it's 795 00:30:23,810 --> 00:30:22,140 proven that if you provoke it it 796 00:30:26,690 --> 00:30:23,820 responds and then it's just a question 797 00:30:30,110 --> 00:30:26,700 of analyzing what that response is uh 798 00:30:32,210 --> 00:30:30,120 versus how you know uh the the um 799 00:30:33,830 --> 00:30:32,220 the data surrounding what the 800 00:30:35,630 --> 00:30:33,840 provocation was they analyzed the 801 00:30:37,430 --> 00:30:35,640 response and then they can see see what 802 00:30:40,909 --> 00:30:37,440 they can glean from it which is it's 803 00:30:43,070 --> 00:30:40,919 extremely perplexing uh Leah Prime 804 00:30:44,630 --> 00:30:43,080 TJ you just teed me up beautifully for 805 00:30:46,010 --> 00:30:44,640 what I was going to ask 806 00:30:48,169 --> 00:30:46,020 um so I have a question about the data 807 00:30:49,850 --> 00:30:48,179 collection process on the show yeah this 808 00:30:51,049 --> 00:30:49,860 was this could have been scripted but it 809 00:30:53,149 --> 00:30:51,059 was not 810 00:30:54,950 --> 00:30:53,159 um has there been any mention or studies 811 00:30:56,990 --> 00:30:54,960 conducted at the ranch that to your 812 00:31:01,130 --> 00:30:57,000 knowledge include the use of equipment 813 00:31:03,730 --> 00:31:01,140 to detect ionized or ionizing radiation 814 00:31:07,250 --> 00:31:03,740 would imagine so but I don't know 815 00:31:10,130 --> 00:31:07,260 technically uh 816 00:31:13,310 --> 00:31:10,140 Eric's not so much stuff going on there 817 00:31:15,830 --> 00:31:13,320 it's insane I mean 818 00:31:18,490 --> 00:31:15,840 it what's funny is anything you can 819 00:31:21,289 --> 00:31:18,500 think of he's already done 820 00:31:22,730 --> 00:31:21,299 it's almost it's almost frustrating 821 00:31:25,610 --> 00:31:22,740 because you think you have a 822 00:31:28,549 --> 00:31:25,620 revolutionary idea dude you gotta do 823 00:31:30,350 --> 00:31:28,559 yeah I tried that you know you gotta try 824 00:31:32,930 --> 00:31:30,360 no but there's this great new tool no I 825 00:31:36,169 --> 00:31:32,940 built my own like no but 826 00:31:37,850 --> 00:31:36,179 no like he's always steps ahead steps 827 00:31:39,350 --> 00:31:37,860 ahead and everything 828 00:31:41,570 --> 00:31:39,360 um I love them for it man but that's 829 00:31:43,370 --> 00:31:41,580 what he does but yeah I would imagine so 830 00:31:44,990 --> 00:31:43,380 but I wouldn't I can't I wish I could 831 00:31:46,730 --> 00:31:45,000 validate that for you were verified but 832 00:31:47,810 --> 00:31:46,740 I just don't know 833 00:31:50,330 --> 00:31:47,820 um 834 00:31:52,730 --> 00:31:50,340 yeah but you know the the data's the 835 00:31:55,190 --> 00:31:52,740 expensive stuff man that's that's the 836 00:31:57,769 --> 00:31:55,200 you know that's the the money 837 00:31:59,930 --> 00:31:57,779 um you know that's I think that is 838 00:32:02,330 --> 00:31:59,940 becoming more controversial now people 839 00:32:04,669 --> 00:32:02,340 want stuff at least and in the world of 840 00:32:06,250 --> 00:32:04,679 AI no uh 841 00:32:09,289 --> 00:32:06,260 do another 842 00:32:10,549 --> 00:32:09,299 dissent into madness 843 00:32:13,010 --> 00:32:10,559 so 844 00:32:14,870 --> 00:32:13,020 I'm gonna cautiously say TJ that I'm 845 00:32:18,169 --> 00:32:14,880 pretty sure that I heard Eric mentioned 846 00:32:20,870 --> 00:32:18,179 uh measuring radiation levels uh I I 847 00:32:23,269 --> 00:32:20,880 don't know about ionized that part yeah 848 00:32:26,510 --> 00:32:23,279 I know that there's radiation yeah 849 00:32:27,710 --> 00:32:26,520 yeah I I don't know about ionized I 850 00:32:30,350 --> 00:32:27,720 don't even know what ionized radiation 851 00:32:31,789 --> 00:32:30,360 is I know that's why we hire Leah 852 00:32:35,690 --> 00:32:31,799 because we don't know either because you 853 00:32:38,029 --> 00:32:35,700 know that's what we but I was gonna uh 854 00:32:41,870 --> 00:32:38,039 mention that uh if you listen to that 855 00:32:43,730 --> 00:32:41,880 UFO podcast with Andy mcgrillin uh Eric 856 00:32:47,090 --> 00:32:43,740 went on there and he asked him if he had 857 00:32:48,889 --> 00:32:47,100 an unlimited budget what type of uh an 858 00:32:50,210 --> 00:32:48,899 experiment would he run and he talked 859 00:32:52,250 --> 00:32:50,220 about 860 00:32:54,350 --> 00:32:52,260 um setting up an array and you'll 861 00:32:56,690 --> 00:32:54,360 forgive me that I'm not a scientist that 862 00:32:59,570 --> 00:32:56,700 would cover a large swath of the area 863 00:33:02,510 --> 00:32:59,580 that he wants to look at but each they 864 00:33:04,789 --> 00:33:02,520 would each sensor would be gathering and 865 00:33:07,669 --> 00:33:04,799 interpreting data independent of the 866 00:33:10,430 --> 00:33:07,679 others so if something moved across that 867 00:33:12,649 --> 00:33:10,440 array it wouldn't it couldn't be tricked 868 00:33:15,110 --> 00:33:12,659 into passing one piece of information 869 00:33:16,909 --> 00:33:15,120 throughout the array that all those 870 00:33:18,350 --> 00:33:16,919 different sensors within there would be 871 00:33:20,690 --> 00:33:18,360 gathering and then they could make a 872 00:33:22,610 --> 00:33:20,700 comparison so I thought that was and see 873 00:33:24,289 --> 00:33:22,620 if there's any changes so that was 874 00:33:27,230 --> 00:33:24,299 interesting I'm not answering it as well 875 00:33:28,610 --> 00:33:27,240 as Eric did but that's my Nathan is that 876 00:33:30,710 --> 00:33:28,620 basically what he said 877 00:33:32,810 --> 00:33:30,720 yeah I think you're spot on I'd love to 878 00:33:35,570 --> 00:33:32,820 see that experiment yeah he was like 879 00:33:37,009 --> 00:33:35,580 yeah because Andy said if you had 500 880 00:33:40,130 --> 00:33:37,019 million dollars you know he threw out a 881 00:33:42,649 --> 00:33:40,140 number that basically unlimited budget 882 00:33:45,009 --> 00:33:42,659 um so also I want to say hello to uh 883 00:33:47,269 --> 00:33:45,019 jewelry 884 00:33:50,450 --> 00:33:47,279 Julie's in the chat hi Julie thank you 885 00:33:52,850 --> 00:33:50,460 very much for uh hosting everybody uh 886 00:33:57,409 --> 00:33:52,860 that is the uh handsome TJ Allard there 887 00:34:00,769 --> 00:33:57,419 and um TJ let's let's launch launch into 888 00:34:03,230 --> 00:34:00,779 the uh fireside chat and 889 00:34:04,789 --> 00:34:03,240 um I'd like to do you want to start off 890 00:34:06,230 --> 00:34:04,799 or would you like one of the cabbies no 891 00:34:07,190 --> 00:34:06,240 what do you guys prime the pump I would 892 00:34:08,930 --> 00:34:07,200 love I would love to have you probably 893 00:34:11,329 --> 00:34:08,940 bump and let me hear how this goes 894 00:34:13,270 --> 00:34:11,339 Nathan do you want I I can go first if 895 00:34:16,369 --> 00:34:13,280 you uh with mine 896 00:34:17,990 --> 00:34:16,379 it's really germane to the ranch and um 897 00:34:20,149 --> 00:34:18,000 there's the fire you see the fire the 898 00:34:22,849 --> 00:34:20,159 camera 899 00:34:25,730 --> 00:34:22,859 hopefully TJ got some s'mores and some 900 00:34:27,070 --> 00:34:25,740 marshmallows uh and we are gonna have a 901 00:34:29,389 --> 00:34:27,080 capture 902 00:34:31,310 --> 00:34:29,399 it's definitely we gotta have a keg it's 903 00:34:33,589 --> 00:34:31,320 New York uh it doesn't matter how cold 904 00:34:36,109 --> 00:34:33,599 it is uh and yeah we are gonna have a 905 00:34:37,550 --> 00:34:36,119 cab summer party uh where it's going to 906 00:34:39,829 --> 00:34:37,560 be like the holiday party but we're 907 00:34:41,990 --> 00:34:39,839 going to be talking about barbecue and 908 00:34:43,909 --> 00:34:42,000 potato chips and we'll probably before 909 00:34:45,470 --> 00:34:43,919 the end of the show we'll ask TJ about 910 00:34:46,609 --> 00:34:45,480 his favorite potato chips so you can 911 00:34:47,750 --> 00:34:46,619 kind of get that in the back of your 912 00:34:49,369 --> 00:34:47,760 brain 913 00:34:53,329 --> 00:34:49,379 um but anyway 914 00:34:56,930 --> 00:34:53,339 um so the idea of portals TJ 915 00:34:59,810 --> 00:34:56,940 um and and crew cabbies 916 00:35:01,370 --> 00:34:59,820 so it's very germane to what goes on on 917 00:35:04,970 --> 00:35:01,380 the ranch 918 00:35:06,890 --> 00:35:04,980 um Matt is you know had on uh people on 919 00:35:09,470 --> 00:35:06,900 his show that are talking about portals 920 00:35:12,650 --> 00:35:09,480 uh the meadow project there in Alabama 921 00:35:15,650 --> 00:35:12,660 talked about a very professional group 922 00:35:18,470 --> 00:35:15,660 of Bigfoot investigators uh unwittingly 923 00:35:20,810 --> 00:35:18,480 encountered a portal whereby when they 924 00:35:23,329 --> 00:35:20,820 were looking at them on therm and 925 00:35:26,810 --> 00:35:23,339 watching you had three teams and when 926 00:35:28,790 --> 00:35:26,820 they were watching Team two on thermal 927 00:35:30,109 --> 00:35:28,800 they walked into they said we see a 928 00:35:32,270 --> 00:35:30,119 portal it's in front of you guys keep 929 00:35:36,470 --> 00:35:32,280 moving keep moving and they disappeared 930 00:35:38,210 --> 00:35:36,480 uh from view so the idea of portals what 931 00:35:41,569 --> 00:35:38,220 I want to ask the team here and I'll 932 00:35:46,370 --> 00:35:41,579 start with Nathan first is 933 00:35:48,069 --> 00:35:46,380 if if dogmen and these other entities uh 934 00:35:50,870 --> 00:35:48,079 entities that are appearing on the ranch 935 00:35:53,810 --> 00:35:50,880 uh whether some people believe Bigfoot 936 00:35:58,670 --> 00:35:53,820 uses them other Cryptids 937 00:36:04,430 --> 00:35:58,680 what is the process by which a portal is 938 00:36:07,430 --> 00:36:04,440 opened what are the mechanics how who if 939 00:36:10,630 --> 00:36:07,440 anyone decides that that portal should 940 00:36:13,370 --> 00:36:10,640 be open so that that particular entity 941 00:36:16,130 --> 00:36:13,380 can walk through it and appear in our 942 00:36:17,450 --> 00:36:16,140 reality how do you suppose that that 943 00:36:18,829 --> 00:36:17,460 happens would you like to throw 944 00:36:20,329 --> 00:36:18,839 something out there 945 00:36:22,910 --> 00:36:20,339 wow 946 00:36:25,490 --> 00:36:22,920 um I didn't know where to start 947 00:36:27,109 --> 00:36:25,500 um yeah that's a big one right uh yeah 948 00:36:28,790 --> 00:36:27,119 well you know they they've hinted at 949 00:36:30,650 --> 00:36:28,800 this on the show right they've hinted 950 00:36:32,210 --> 00:36:30,660 that there's been uh it's a speculation 951 00:36:35,030 --> 00:36:32,220 right that there's some kind of portal 952 00:36:38,270 --> 00:36:35,040 above the ranch uh of course we've heard 953 00:36:40,190 --> 00:36:38,280 mention of the portal on the ranch 954 00:36:42,589 --> 00:36:40,200 um as far as like the mechanism by which 955 00:36:44,770 --> 00:36:42,599 one appears I mean I think we would have 956 00:36:47,510 --> 00:36:44,780 to understand 957 00:36:49,730 --> 00:36:47,520 I mean we we don't our portal science 958 00:36:52,849 --> 00:36:49,740 put it this way our portal science is 959 00:36:55,970 --> 00:36:52,859 not exactly great uh so you know we've 960 00:36:57,410 --> 00:36:55,980 got theoretical things like wormholes uh 961 00:37:00,770 --> 00:36:57,420 you know so the same things that 962 00:37:02,569 --> 00:37:00,780 Traverse space and time uh through a 963 00:37:05,390 --> 00:37:02,579 wormhole that requires at least from 964 00:37:07,430 --> 00:37:05,400 understanding a ton of energy uh and 965 00:37:10,069 --> 00:37:07,440 that they're very unstable too from what 966 00:37:12,650 --> 00:37:10,079 we understand uh so maybe it's something 967 00:37:14,690 --> 00:37:12,660 like that but uh I don't know I mean I 968 00:37:16,550 --> 00:37:14,700 you know is there is there a connection 969 00:37:20,150 --> 00:37:16,560 to Consciousness is there connection to 970 00:37:22,790 --> 00:37:20,160 the people who are there uh in a sort of 971 00:37:26,690 --> 00:37:22,800 in a way kind of manifesting that 972 00:37:28,310 --> 00:37:26,700 experience to happen uh I I don't know 973 00:37:30,770 --> 00:37:28,320 um interesting you know I reminded too 974 00:37:33,109 --> 00:37:30,780 of that uh was it season one uh TJ or 975 00:37:35,810 --> 00:37:33,119 two where they brought the rabbi on and 976 00:37:38,150 --> 00:37:35,820 he was kind of doing his uh you know 977 00:37:40,370 --> 00:37:38,160 sort of ceremony and while he was doing 978 00:37:43,069 --> 00:37:40,380 that they were I think like they had uh 979 00:37:46,310 --> 00:37:43,079 Homestead 2 on thermal and there was 980 00:37:47,870 --> 00:37:46,320 like a a cold anomaly that began 981 00:37:51,050 --> 00:37:47,880 appearing 982 00:37:53,690 --> 00:37:51,060 on Homestead too during this essentially 983 00:37:56,569 --> 00:37:53,700 was a prayer ceremony 984 00:37:58,310 --> 00:37:56,579 um so that was quite odd and it kind of 985 00:37:59,750 --> 00:37:58,320 for me as a viewer I was like well where 986 00:38:02,089 --> 00:37:59,760 are we going from here like what what 987 00:38:03,410 --> 00:38:02,099 does that mean that tends to be the case 988 00:38:05,450 --> 00:38:03,420 though with a lot of these experiments 989 00:38:07,130 --> 00:38:05,460 right they kind of they only end up 990 00:38:10,010 --> 00:38:07,140 raising more questions than than 991 00:38:15,470 --> 00:38:12,170 I I thought it was three I don't know 992 00:38:17,210 --> 00:38:15,480 yeah there you go because Jonathan was 993 00:38:18,950 --> 00:38:17,220 on that same one we ended up getting 994 00:38:21,589 --> 00:38:18,960 Jonathan Dover whom you had on the show 995 00:38:24,230 --> 00:38:21,599 we've finally got him on and Stan his 996 00:38:27,109 --> 00:38:24,240 partner from the Navajo Rangers and that 997 00:38:29,690 --> 00:38:27,119 was uh I used the word phenomenal but it 998 00:38:32,990 --> 00:38:29,700 was his great episode 999 00:38:36,050 --> 00:38:33,000 um Matt so you know these folks that see 1000 00:38:38,569 --> 00:38:36,060 these uh you know dog man I you know a 1001 00:38:40,490 --> 00:38:38,579 lot of people believe that that creature 1002 00:38:43,609 --> 00:38:40,500 is moving through a portal does it 1003 00:38:46,609 --> 00:38:43,619 decide to open this up this venue and 1004 00:38:49,430 --> 00:38:46,619 let itself in uh who do you suppose uh 1005 00:38:52,849 --> 00:38:49,440 is the origin of of allowing something 1006 00:38:54,890 --> 00:38:52,859 can can an entity decide that it wants 1007 00:38:56,630 --> 00:38:54,900 to appear and it happens or is there 1008 00:38:58,730 --> 00:38:56,640 someone else that's con pulling that 1009 00:39:01,310 --> 00:38:58,740 switch is there a TJ Allard back there 1010 00:39:06,230 --> 00:39:01,320 that's opening that portal 1011 00:39:08,870 --> 00:39:06,240 yeah a simple answer I have no idea 1012 00:39:11,270 --> 00:39:08,880 I mean because 1013 00:39:14,150 --> 00:39:11,280 you know I if something 1014 00:39:15,829 --> 00:39:14,160 had the conscious ability to do that 1015 00:39:18,230 --> 00:39:15,839 then 1016 00:39:19,910 --> 00:39:18,240 I mean what are they God you know are 1017 00:39:22,130 --> 00:39:19,920 are they a type of God they're they're 1018 00:39:24,290 --> 00:39:22,140 something beyond our understanding of 1019 00:39:27,190 --> 00:39:24,300 you know science for sure 1020 00:39:30,849 --> 00:39:27,200 uh and then if it does just happen 1021 00:39:34,069 --> 00:39:30,859 somewhat randomly or by some other 1022 00:39:36,349 --> 00:39:34,079 methods whether it be a certain type of 1023 00:39:39,530 --> 00:39:36,359 geography or something going on that we 1024 00:39:42,349 --> 00:39:39,540 don't know about or don't uh pick up on 1025 00:39:44,210 --> 00:39:42,359 at the time are these uh beings just in 1026 00:39:47,390 --> 00:39:44,220 the right place at the right time 1027 00:39:50,569 --> 00:39:47,400 uh the odds of that seem very unlikely 1028 00:39:52,910 --> 00:39:50,579 as well or is it a combination of things 1029 00:39:54,050 --> 00:39:52,920 you know right thing in the right place 1030 00:39:55,069 --> 00:39:54,060 at the right time with the right 1031 00:39:59,569 --> 00:39:55,079 abilities 1032 00:40:01,370 --> 00:39:59,579 uh is it you know String Theory uh you 1033 00:40:04,069 --> 00:40:01,380 know entanglement where we're just happy 1034 00:40:06,050 --> 00:40:04,079 to be overlapping at the right point in 1035 00:40:09,410 --> 00:40:06,060 time for that Dimension to cross over to 1036 00:40:12,050 --> 00:40:09,420 this one but then why can't we cross 1037 00:40:15,170 --> 00:40:12,060 over as well why doesn't it it's not a 1038 00:40:17,349 --> 00:40:15,180 two-way street it doesn't seem uh unless 1039 00:40:21,470 --> 00:40:17,359 you're one of these creatures apparently 1040 00:40:23,750 --> 00:40:21,480 but then you know I've heard uh some 1041 00:40:26,569 --> 00:40:23,760 pretty crazy stuff out there there's a a 1042 00:40:29,390 --> 00:40:26,579 gentleman uh Dr Matthew Johnson who had 1043 00:40:32,630 --> 00:40:29,400 a Big Foot encounter uh 1044 00:40:35,390 --> 00:40:32,640 and his views of Bigfoot drastically 1045 00:40:37,849 --> 00:40:35,400 changed from where they began and he 1046 00:40:41,569 --> 00:40:37,859 claims that he has the ability to open 1047 00:40:45,170 --> 00:40:41,579 portals and uh he just uses a red 1048 00:40:46,730 --> 00:40:45,180 flashlight so I mean I don't know I 1049 00:40:49,310 --> 00:40:46,740 don't know 1050 00:40:52,849 --> 00:40:49,320 I I did have a theory uh whenever I was 1051 00:40:55,370 --> 00:40:52,859 about 12. uh how people uh come across 1052 00:40:58,190 --> 00:40:55,380 these cold spots in haunting haunting 1053 00:40:59,870 --> 00:40:58,200 cases and the thought that I came up 1054 00:41:02,089 --> 00:40:59,880 with then was that those were the 1055 00:41:03,910 --> 00:41:02,099 spirits actually drawing energy from the 1056 00:41:07,069 --> 00:41:03,920 area to manifest 1057 00:41:08,329 --> 00:41:07,079 and the drawing of that energy created a 1058 00:41:10,970 --> 00:41:08,339 vacuum and that's what we were feeling 1059 00:41:14,930 --> 00:41:10,980 as a change in temperature drop uh you 1060 00:41:18,410 --> 00:41:14,940 know getting colder but was it a portal 1061 00:41:19,910 --> 00:41:18,420 opening uh into the plane where the the 1062 00:41:21,710 --> 00:41:19,920 spirits or whatever you want to call 1063 00:41:23,690 --> 00:41:21,720 them could cross over and that's the 1064 00:41:25,790 --> 00:41:23,700 cold spots that we feel because a lot of 1065 00:41:27,890 --> 00:41:25,800 these uh situations that you spoke of 1066 00:41:29,650 --> 00:41:27,900 earlier where they're observing through 1067 00:41:32,030 --> 00:41:29,660 some sort of you know thermal device 1068 00:41:35,270 --> 00:41:32,040 they see these portals as a cold 1069 00:41:37,730 --> 00:41:35,280 register and not a warm register which I 1070 00:41:40,190 --> 00:41:37,740 find that kind of interesting 1071 00:41:41,810 --> 00:41:40,200 that that goes with your theory so you 1072 00:41:43,250 --> 00:41:41,820 started out with I have no idea and then 1073 00:41:46,730 --> 00:41:43,260 prevented it presented an excellent 1074 00:41:48,470 --> 00:41:46,740 hypothesis well I don't know right I 1075 00:41:49,910 --> 00:41:48,480 certainly don't know well none of us 1076 00:41:51,589 --> 00:41:49,920 know but that's what we're doing that's 1077 00:41:54,170 --> 00:41:51,599 why we're here is to kick it around no 1078 00:41:56,510 --> 00:41:54,180 obviously none of us know and we we will 1079 00:41:58,010 --> 00:41:56,520 get to Nathan please remind me for the 1080 00:42:00,770 --> 00:41:58,020 end of show we'll get to with TJ about 1081 00:42:02,750 --> 00:42:00,780 uh Chris blett so I'm sure he's familiar 1082 00:42:04,849 --> 00:42:02,760 with him but if you're talking to him 1083 00:42:07,010 --> 00:42:04,859 next night okay oh all right well then 1084 00:42:09,829 --> 00:42:07,020 we will we will get to it after we're 1085 00:42:12,650 --> 00:42:09,839 done with the Firestone I talked last 1086 00:42:13,730 --> 00:42:12,660 night I talked yeah we will get to that 1087 00:42:15,010 --> 00:42:13,740 because I'm going to want to hear about 1088 00:42:17,329 --> 00:42:15,020 that because 1089 00:42:19,490 --> 00:42:17,339 the kind of entertainment you're talking 1090 00:42:21,770 --> 00:42:19,500 about I mean his story is one I would 1091 00:42:24,829 --> 00:42:21,780 want to present but Leah Prime so 1092 00:42:27,710 --> 00:42:24,839 Nathan's hypothesis is interesting is 1093 00:42:29,690 --> 00:42:27,720 that person manifesting the portal is it 1094 00:42:31,069 --> 00:42:29,700 the entity walking through the portal 1095 00:42:33,050 --> 00:42:31,079 that 1096 00:42:35,870 --> 00:42:33,060 um Engineers it's it's it's its opening 1097 00:42:37,310 --> 00:42:35,880 uh like Matt uh or what Matt said which 1098 00:42:40,010 --> 00:42:37,320 is a tangent thereof what is your 1099 00:42:42,710 --> 00:42:40,020 thoughts about that these portals yeah 1100 00:42:46,910 --> 00:42:44,630 um and I always try to lay this out 1101 00:42:50,150 --> 00:42:46,920 whenever I talk about this kind of 1102 00:42:51,470 --> 00:42:50,160 mysterious or numinous topics which is 1103 00:42:53,089 --> 00:42:51,480 that I think are Frameworks for 1104 00:42:55,970 --> 00:42:53,099 instrumenting measuring and assessing 1105 00:42:59,690 --> 00:42:55,980 these events are very very limited 1106 00:43:01,790 --> 00:42:59,700 um and uh my my secondary comment here 1107 00:43:04,010 --> 00:43:01,800 is that there's basically a long story 1108 00:43:06,950 --> 00:43:04,020 tradition of rituals and behaviors to 1109 00:43:09,410 --> 00:43:06,960 deliberately induce these liminal spaces 1110 00:43:11,870 --> 00:43:09,420 and experiences which largely defy the 1111 00:43:13,790 --> 00:43:11,880 Western Material tradition including 1112 00:43:15,050 --> 00:43:13,800 summoning entities right like in I guess 1113 00:43:17,450 --> 00:43:15,060 in the western tradition we have people 1114 00:43:18,710 --> 00:43:17,460 like John D and Enoki and Magic but we 1115 00:43:20,630 --> 00:43:18,720 also have things like topos and 1116 00:43:22,550 --> 00:43:20,640 egregor's so when we're talking about 1117 00:43:25,370 --> 00:43:22,560 portals and dogmen to me that feels like 1118 00:43:27,170 --> 00:43:25,380 it's really just uh in a lot of respects 1119 00:43:30,170 --> 00:43:27,180 um we're still singing from the same 1120 00:43:32,030 --> 00:43:30,180 song sheet in terms of uh traditions and 1121 00:43:33,770 --> 00:43:32,040 rituals that have been with Humanity for 1122 00:43:36,170 --> 00:43:33,780 a very very long time 1123 00:43:37,370 --> 00:43:36,180 um but even now we see conversations uh 1124 00:43:38,990 --> 00:43:37,380 I'm going to bring it up in the 1125 00:43:40,790 --> 00:43:39,000 Psychedelic Community uh Andrew 1126 00:43:42,170 --> 00:43:40,800 Gallimore for instance theorizes that 1127 00:43:43,910 --> 00:43:42,180 DMT entities are actually 1128 00:43:45,530 --> 00:43:43,920 hyperdimensional beings that can be 1129 00:43:48,050 --> 00:43:45,540 deliberately interacted with during a 1130 00:43:49,849 --> 00:43:48,060 breakthrough experience and so I say all 1131 00:43:52,790 --> 00:43:49,859 of this to say I don't have a great 1132 00:43:55,730 --> 00:43:52,800 answer but um like with a lot of 1133 00:43:57,770 --> 00:43:55,740 subjects in this space for me I tend to 1134 00:44:00,290 --> 00:43:57,780 analogize them to other Traditions like 1135 00:44:01,970 --> 00:44:00,300 either psychospiritual ritual esoteric 1136 00:44:04,550 --> 00:44:01,980 and occult Traditions 1137 00:44:08,690 --> 00:44:04,560 um that have been more or less not only 1138 00:44:10,849 --> 00:44:08,700 participated in but um consistently uh 1139 00:44:14,510 --> 00:44:10,859 participated and experienced in by 1140 00:44:18,470 --> 00:44:14,520 people across all times and cultures 1141 00:44:21,950 --> 00:44:18,480 okay but no hypothesis on what makes it 1142 00:44:24,710 --> 00:44:21,960 come about if it's if it's a derivative 1143 00:44:26,630 --> 00:44:24,720 of something that's in our reality or if 1144 00:44:29,150 --> 00:44:26,640 it's something in another reality that 1145 00:44:39,410 --> 00:44:29,160 has decided that that it wants to open a 1146 00:44:43,790 --> 00:44:41,930 absolutely just an artifact of like 1147 00:44:45,230 --> 00:44:43,800 Electro conductive response to our brain 1148 00:44:48,890 --> 00:44:45,240 like our brain doesn't actually interact 1149 00:44:50,630 --> 00:44:48,900 with our environment and so um if if 1150 00:44:53,210 --> 00:44:50,640 pressed to answer my thought would be 1151 00:44:55,430 --> 00:44:53,220 that there are different kinds of 1152 00:44:56,349 --> 00:44:55,440 realities that can be 1153 00:44:58,730 --> 00:44:56,359 um 1154 00:45:02,089 --> 00:44:58,740 experienced either intentionally or 1155 00:45:04,069 --> 00:45:02,099 deliberately cultivated or even 1156 00:45:06,349 --> 00:45:04,079 um stochastically like they can just 1157 00:45:08,809 --> 00:45:06,359 happen uh based on particular 1158 00:45:10,730 --> 00:45:08,819 environmental or psychospiritual 1159 00:45:13,190 --> 00:45:10,740 activities 1160 00:45:17,150 --> 00:45:13,200 so right place right time could could be 1161 00:45:19,069 --> 00:45:17,160 it for that okay uh Deb so we we got to 1162 00:45:21,290 --> 00:45:19,079 move through these because this one this 1163 00:45:23,809 --> 00:45:21,300 one actually was a a bit of a twister 1164 00:45:25,370 --> 00:45:23,819 and we hadn't gotten a TJ yet on to to 1165 00:45:27,410 --> 00:45:25,380 speak to this one so Deb would you like 1166 00:45:28,670 --> 00:45:27,420 to offer up something on Portals and by 1167 00:45:31,609 --> 00:45:28,680 the way you're welcome it's so great to 1168 00:45:33,050 --> 00:45:31,619 have you apparently that's right I just 1169 00:45:35,470 --> 00:45:33,060 wanted to thank Leah for joining us so 1170 00:45:37,329 --> 00:45:35,480 she's got she's got a job okay 1171 00:45:39,710 --> 00:45:37,339 thank you 1172 00:45:42,230 --> 00:45:39,720 it was a pleasure wonderful to see you 1173 00:45:44,329 --> 00:45:42,240 all I'll see you guys soon have a great 1174 00:45:45,950 --> 00:45:44,339 night thank you have a great night buddy 1175 00:45:48,410 --> 00:45:45,960 bye-bye 1176 00:45:50,870 --> 00:45:48,420 by the way can you guys hear me yes 1177 00:45:54,050 --> 00:45:50,880 ma'am okay because I didn't get to do 1178 00:45:55,970 --> 00:45:54,060 soundtrack sorry I'm late I'm good I had 1179 00:45:57,589 --> 00:45:55,980 this new idea 1180 00:46:00,410 --> 00:45:57,599 um recently that I think I may have 1181 00:46:02,870 --> 00:46:00,420 thrown out to the world what if it's not 1182 00:46:05,690 --> 00:46:02,880 about portals but things changing in 1183 00:46:10,849 --> 00:46:05,700 size going from very small to very large 1184 00:46:17,690 --> 00:46:13,550 I mean everything's on the table 1185 00:46:19,550 --> 00:46:17,700 so it it's possible it's just the 1186 00:46:21,470 --> 00:46:19,560 question was sort of like is it 1187 00:46:24,109 --> 00:46:21,480 manifested by something it's in another 1188 00:46:28,730 --> 00:46:24,119 reality wanting to enter and if there's 1189 00:46:30,470 --> 00:46:28,740 a process or as Nathan was able to put a 1190 00:46:33,290 --> 00:46:30,480 counter on that is it something that 1191 00:46:35,750 --> 00:46:33,300 somebody is going in the woods wanting 1192 00:46:37,609 --> 00:46:35,760 going to a place that has a significant 1193 00:46:39,170 --> 00:46:37,619 amount of energy like the Land Between 1194 00:46:41,630 --> 00:46:39,180 the Lakes in Kentucky I don't know if 1195 00:46:45,589 --> 00:46:41,640 TJ's familiar with that area and is 1196 00:46:47,870 --> 00:46:45,599 manifesting that portal to open you know 1197 00:46:49,490 --> 00:46:47,880 so uh that was sort of where I was going 1198 00:46:53,690 --> 00:46:49,500 with it 1199 00:46:55,970 --> 00:46:53,700 um but um let's get to uh 1200 00:46:58,609 --> 00:46:55,980 TJ what what is your thoughts on that 1201 00:47:03,349 --> 00:47:00,589 uh oh Post-it note 1202 00:47:05,030 --> 00:47:03,359 okay so I I live on Post-it notes but 1203 00:47:07,069 --> 00:47:05,040 I've been taking you bringing up a bunch 1204 00:47:10,490 --> 00:47:07,079 of things tonight I'm writing down to 1205 00:47:12,650 --> 00:47:10,500 your notes oh good that's good A little 1206 00:47:15,170 --> 00:47:12,660 Post-it spin if you can see my 1207 00:47:17,089 --> 00:47:15,180 flurry of Post-its uh 1208 00:47:21,829 --> 00:47:17,099 so 1209 00:47:24,470 --> 00:47:21,839 I'm very serious right and I'm trying to 1210 00:47:25,849 --> 00:47:24,480 keep right ideas 1211 00:47:28,790 --> 00:47:25,859 um 1212 00:47:32,210 --> 00:47:28,800 hi okay so a couple things 1213 00:47:34,190 --> 00:47:32,220 so the work portal or Vortex 1214 00:47:36,770 --> 00:47:34,200 um still carries a connotation to it 1215 00:47:39,470 --> 00:47:36,780 that it's woo right it's still the woo 1216 00:47:40,849 --> 00:47:39,480 part that it's hard to get over it's 1217 00:47:42,589 --> 00:47:40,859 hard to get past 1218 00:47:43,790 --> 00:47:42,599 um there has to be we have to deal with 1219 00:47:45,650 --> 00:47:43,800 a better name it has to have a better 1220 00:47:48,470 --> 00:47:45,660 name that can ever be taken seriously as 1221 00:47:50,870 --> 00:47:48,480 a thing like as a as a definition a 1222 00:47:53,270 --> 00:47:50,880 scientific definition of something 1223 00:47:55,550 --> 00:47:53,280 um this is my opinion this is the way I 1224 00:47:57,410 --> 00:47:55,560 just uh this is how I I see it because I 1225 00:47:59,030 --> 00:47:57,420 feel like 1226 00:48:01,190 --> 00:47:59,040 you hear those things and they bring up 1227 00:48:03,710 --> 00:48:01,200 preconceived notion of 1228 00:48:06,710 --> 00:48:03,720 portal meaning Transportation portal or 1229 00:48:08,569 --> 00:48:06,720 Vortex meaning this that like that may 1230 00:48:14,270 --> 00:48:08,579 may not be 1231 00:48:15,530 --> 00:48:14,280 so my experience with it at the ranch in 1232 00:48:16,790 --> 00:48:15,540 particular and I didn't even know was a 1233 00:48:19,069 --> 00:48:16,800 thing and I had no clue what I was 1234 00:48:20,750 --> 00:48:19,079 experiencing 1235 00:48:23,930 --> 00:48:20,760 um one night late night I'm out the 1236 00:48:27,050 --> 00:48:23,940 ridge uh Eric's a command center I'm on 1237 00:48:29,270 --> 00:48:27,060 a bridge with a few people and uh 1238 00:48:31,190 --> 00:48:29,280 start smelling sulfur 1239 00:48:32,870 --> 00:48:31,200 and it's like what the hell is this 1240 00:48:35,210 --> 00:48:32,880 other still suffering here this should 1241 00:48:36,829 --> 00:48:35,220 be no sulfur smell and Eric is 1242 00:48:39,410 --> 00:48:36,839 immediately it's like oh that 1243 00:48:41,150 --> 00:48:39,420 that means it's something something just 1244 00:48:43,849 --> 00:48:41,160 disappeared 1245 00:48:45,890 --> 00:48:43,859 um and so from what I understand of of 1246 00:48:48,050 --> 00:48:45,900 my experience and you know the 1247 00:48:50,690 --> 00:48:48,060 explanation was going to be like 1248 00:48:52,910 --> 00:48:50,700 that that dissipation of something 1249 00:48:55,670 --> 00:48:52,920 produces the smell 1250 00:48:59,210 --> 00:48:55,680 um whether and so to me the idea of how 1251 00:49:00,530 --> 00:48:59,220 how it be it does or doesn't manifest is 1252 00:49:02,510 --> 00:49:00,540 it like a tree in the woods if it falls 1253 00:49:04,250 --> 00:49:02,520 you know in order to see it does it 1254 00:49:06,950 --> 00:49:04,260 exist like 1255 00:49:09,349 --> 00:49:06,960 if we were on the ridge that day or that 1256 00:49:11,690 --> 00:49:09,359 night would that have still happened is 1257 00:49:14,450 --> 00:49:11,700 it like an atmosphere burp so to speak 1258 00:49:16,010 --> 00:49:14,460 like like a dissipation of energy 1259 00:49:17,210 --> 00:49:16,020 um in anticipation of energy is just a 1260 00:49:19,609 --> 00:49:17,220 natural occurrence and if these natural 1261 00:49:22,010 --> 00:49:19,619 occurrences just like any natural 1262 00:49:23,809 --> 00:49:22,020 occurrence right there are there are 1263 00:49:27,230 --> 00:49:23,819 environmental factors that make them 1264 00:49:28,970 --> 00:49:27,240 happen more in one place than another 1265 00:49:30,829 --> 00:49:28,980 the ranch may be one of these places 1266 00:49:33,710 --> 00:49:30,839 where these natural occurrences happen 1267 00:49:35,930 --> 00:49:33,720 now what comes through or doesn't come 1268 00:49:37,970 --> 00:49:35,940 through a portal I don't know if that's 1269 00:49:40,849 --> 00:49:37,980 even the right term like going through 1270 00:49:43,130 --> 00:49:40,859 or coming through if it's manifesting or 1271 00:49:44,809 --> 00:49:43,140 dissipating in what you're calling your 1272 00:49:47,210 --> 00:49:44,819 space your reality what's in front of 1273 00:49:49,550 --> 00:49:47,220 you is that transporting I I don't know 1274 00:49:51,470 --> 00:49:49,560 it's like to me it's 1275 00:49:54,170 --> 00:49:51,480 there's just too many 1276 00:49:57,230 --> 00:49:54,180 the problem is the words it's the words 1277 00:49:58,670 --> 00:49:57,240 to get in the way uh because it's you 1278 00:49:59,630 --> 00:49:58,680 know people think Florida oh I'm gonna 1279 00:50:00,650 --> 00:49:59,640 walk through something and appear 1280 00:50:02,450 --> 00:50:00,660 somewhere else 1281 00:50:04,430 --> 00:50:02,460 when I'm trying to 1282 00:50:06,290 --> 00:50:04,440 verbalize I guess is like maybe it's not 1283 00:50:08,990 --> 00:50:06,300 that maybe it is the 1284 00:50:11,089 --> 00:50:09,000 it's the EBV it's just natural and that 1285 00:50:13,069 --> 00:50:11,099 all of these things this is what I I 1286 00:50:14,210 --> 00:50:13,079 struggle with a lot like yeah we talk 1287 00:50:17,050 --> 00:50:14,220 about these things it's supernatural 1288 00:50:20,150 --> 00:50:17,060 there's no super about it it's natural 1289 00:50:22,010 --> 00:50:20,160 it's all natural there's no super part 1290 00:50:24,470 --> 00:50:22,020 of anything it's all natural and it's 1291 00:50:25,910 --> 00:50:24,480 just so rare that we don't think of it 1292 00:50:28,370 --> 00:50:25,920 or seed all the time and so people are 1293 00:50:30,910 --> 00:50:28,380 like oh it's super paranormal no no it's 1294 00:50:33,829 --> 00:50:30,920 normal it's para shouldn't mean 1295 00:50:36,470 --> 00:50:33,839 different like whatever the connotation 1296 00:50:38,809 --> 00:50:36,480 is it should just mean very very rare or 1297 00:50:41,569 --> 00:50:38,819 very limited in scope of where it can 1298 00:50:44,109 --> 00:50:41,579 happen because what is not natural how 1299 00:50:46,550 --> 00:50:44,119 is something a phenomenon not natural 1300 00:50:48,170 --> 00:50:46,560 like you try to say like even if it's a 1301 00:50:50,630 --> 00:50:48,180 human created it's still a natural thing 1302 00:50:52,370 --> 00:50:50,640 a human is a natural thing like it's it 1303 00:50:54,349 --> 00:50:52,380 because it borders on the thing of magic 1304 00:50:55,309 --> 00:50:54,359 and even that like that's where I get 1305 00:50:57,410 --> 00:50:55,319 lost 1306 00:50:59,270 --> 00:50:57,420 um I don't know I just think that it is 1307 00:51:00,950 --> 00:50:59,280 all of us portals I feel like they're 1308 00:51:02,510 --> 00:51:00,960 Mana as a natural I think it's all just 1309 00:51:05,329 --> 00:51:02,520 nature it's all nature that we just 1310 00:51:08,990 --> 00:51:05,339 don't understand whether people can go 1311 00:51:10,970 --> 00:51:09,000 from 1.8 point B in it I don't know 1312 00:51:13,670 --> 00:51:10,980 um that could be just a different name 1313 00:51:15,410 --> 00:51:13,680 because right here the the like you said 1314 00:51:17,750 --> 00:51:15,420 nature that could be a different name 1315 00:51:21,170 --> 00:51:17,760 for something that like you said it 1316 00:51:23,569 --> 00:51:21,180 could occur naturally but it's not the I 1317 00:51:25,849 --> 00:51:23,579 think paranormal it says here beyond the 1318 00:51:30,530 --> 00:51:25,859 scope of normal scientific understanding 1319 00:51:33,410 --> 00:51:30,540 so perhaps it is abnormal enough so even 1320 00:51:36,230 --> 00:51:33,420 if even if we just accept at face value 1321 00:51:38,690 --> 00:51:36,240 what you said that it's natural and it 1322 00:51:42,530 --> 00:51:38,700 and in this particular space it may be 1323 00:51:46,309 --> 00:51:42,540 more prone to occur there it's beyond 1324 00:51:50,809 --> 00:51:46,319 normal so like in your walk up your 1325 00:51:53,089 --> 00:51:50,819 Brownstone in you know Washington DC you 1326 00:51:55,910 --> 00:51:53,099 know it's not normal to see some sort of 1327 00:51:57,890 --> 00:51:55,920 a dog man or something like come out but 1328 00:51:59,690 --> 00:51:57,900 maybe if that happened out at the ranch 1329 00:52:01,970 --> 00:51:59,700 it would be considered a little bit more 1330 00:52:03,790 --> 00:52:01,980 normal at this point so you know what I 1331 00:52:06,710 --> 00:52:03,800 mean like it's we're playing 1332 00:52:08,870 --> 00:52:06,720 understanding is the thing because yeah 1333 00:52:10,430 --> 00:52:08,880 you're assuming scientific understanding 1334 00:52:12,470 --> 00:52:10,440 is in stone 1335 00:52:14,150 --> 00:52:12,480 like scientific understanding evolves so 1336 00:52:15,049 --> 00:52:14,160 our scientific understanding today is 1337 00:52:17,329 --> 00:52:15,059 different than our scientific 1338 00:52:18,829 --> 00:52:17,339 understanding in 100 years so if we 1339 00:52:21,230 --> 00:52:18,839 don't understand it yet it doesn't mean 1340 00:52:24,470 --> 00:52:21,240 that it's not science we just don't get 1341 00:52:25,970 --> 00:52:24,480 it sure yeah no there's no I don't I 1342 00:52:28,370 --> 00:52:25,980 don't disagree with you but I understand 1343 00:52:29,870 --> 00:52:28,380 as you said the words are getting in the 1344 00:52:32,270 --> 00:52:29,880 way and it makes it it makes it 1345 00:52:35,089 --> 00:52:32,280 difficult for people to digest 1346 00:52:37,470 --> 00:52:35,099 so uh but here's something that's not 1347 00:52:44,089 --> 00:52:37,480 difficult to digest it's money Nathan 1348 00:52:48,049 --> 00:52:46,250 I said that before I like it 1349 00:52:49,849 --> 00:52:48,059 um uh TJ all right so I know you've got 1350 00:52:51,530 --> 00:52:49,859 an interest in data I have an interest 1351 00:52:53,809 --> 00:52:51,540 in data um 1352 00:52:56,150 --> 00:52:53,819 you've got a degree that you worked on 1353 00:52:57,530 --> 00:52:56,160 on in that field as well and you've 1354 00:53:00,829 --> 00:52:57,540 talked a little bit about AI of course 1355 00:53:03,290 --> 00:53:00,839 yeah it's pretty odd topic right now uh 1356 00:53:07,010 --> 00:53:03,300 where is that taking us in your opinion 1357 00:53:09,290 --> 00:53:07,020 in terms of our ability to study things 1358 00:53:11,809 --> 00:53:09,300 like this but also just in in your 1359 00:53:13,750 --> 00:53:11,819 industry uh more broadly uh you know I'd 1360 00:53:16,430 --> 00:53:13,760 love to get your oh boy 1361 00:53:17,770 --> 00:53:16,440 here huh what what crazy roads we're 1362 00:53:21,650 --> 00:53:17,780 headed down here 1363 00:53:24,710 --> 00:53:21,660 man I have been preaching this so oh my 1364 00:53:26,990 --> 00:53:24,720 God this is one of these wow so my quest 1365 00:53:29,990 --> 00:53:27,000 my Fireside also touches on AI but what 1366 00:53:31,730 --> 00:53:30,000 you're just bringing out here 1367 00:53:35,809 --> 00:53:31,740 is 1368 00:53:38,809 --> 00:53:35,819 um 1369 00:53:41,690 --> 00:53:38,819 it is changing the game 1370 00:53:43,130 --> 00:53:41,700 so all right so my t-shirt for the last 1371 00:53:44,930 --> 00:53:43,140 20 years should have said whoever 1372 00:53:48,470 --> 00:53:44,940 controls your pipeline controls your 1373 00:53:50,510 --> 00:53:48,480 world I've been saying this inside 1999. 1374 00:53:53,870 --> 00:53:50,520 and what I mean by that is whoever 1375 00:53:56,690 --> 00:53:53,880 provides you the service to consume 1376 00:53:58,549 --> 00:53:56,700 uh excuse Zoom entertainment is the one 1377 00:54:01,370 --> 00:53:58,559 who shapes your reality 1378 00:54:03,470 --> 00:54:01,380 um and they will limit or you know right 1379 00:54:06,650 --> 00:54:03,480 now we're drinking from a fire hose 1380 00:54:07,970 --> 00:54:06,660 um but at a certain point uh it's just 1381 00:54:10,190 --> 00:54:07,980 like the just like the Colorado River 1382 00:54:12,230 --> 00:54:10,200 it's all going to be disseminated in in 1383 00:54:13,910 --> 00:54:12,240 parsed out 1384 00:54:15,109 --> 00:54:13,920 um and you're going to have factions 1385 00:54:16,490 --> 00:54:15,119 you're going to have the Horizon you're 1386 00:54:19,309 --> 00:54:16,500 going to have the ATT you're going to 1387 00:54:20,930 --> 00:54:19,319 have time Warners and all of those will 1388 00:54:23,210 --> 00:54:20,940 have their own content which is why you 1389 00:54:26,450 --> 00:54:23,220 see that you you see these conglomerates 1390 00:54:29,450 --> 00:54:26,460 of Distributors by 1391 00:54:31,490 --> 00:54:29,460 catalogs so Comcast buying NDC was a 1392 00:54:32,990 --> 00:54:31,500 great one from years ago because Comcast 1393 00:54:35,690 --> 00:54:33,000 has a distribution Channel 1394 00:54:37,190 --> 00:54:35,700 NBC is nothing more than content 1395 00:54:38,510 --> 00:54:37,200 um so that was the old model right so 1396 00:54:40,970 --> 00:54:38,520 you had the Distributors buying the 1397 00:54:41,870 --> 00:54:40,980 content now and I'll use YouTube as an 1398 00:54:45,710 --> 00:54:41,880 example 1399 00:54:48,349 --> 00:54:45,720 YouTube has all ends of the pipeline 1400 00:54:50,450 --> 00:54:48,359 they have the digital distribution they 1401 00:54:52,309 --> 00:54:50,460 control uh the content creation they 1402 00:54:55,609 --> 00:54:52,319 control the advertising and control all 1403 00:54:58,329 --> 00:54:55,619 facets of it they are still limited by 1404 00:55:00,710 --> 00:54:58,339 uh the the actual pipeline but I mean 1405 00:55:02,569 --> 00:55:00,720 there's probably where I'm sure Google 1406 00:55:05,030 --> 00:55:02,579 has their Google fi or whatever you know 1407 00:55:06,349 --> 00:55:05,040 they'll get in there so AI comes into 1408 00:55:08,930 --> 00:55:06,359 play here 1409 00:55:11,990 --> 00:55:08,940 because if you think about 1410 00:55:14,630 --> 00:55:12,000 I say this because I my son 1411 00:55:15,950 --> 00:55:14,640 uh watches YouTube well not anymore I 1412 00:55:19,730 --> 00:55:15,960 pulled it away I'm done with the YouTube 1413 00:55:22,549 --> 00:55:19,740 contents uh uh and it's hard it was a 1414 00:55:23,390 --> 00:55:22,559 very hard thing for me to do to end but 1415 00:55:25,849 --> 00:55:23,400 um 1416 00:55:27,290 --> 00:55:25,859 so YouTube you know how Video Killed the 1417 00:55:29,630 --> 00:55:27,300 Radio Star well YouTube killed the 1418 00:55:32,109 --> 00:55:29,640 television producer uh and the reason 1419 00:55:35,210 --> 00:55:32,119 why is because 1420 00:55:37,010 --> 00:55:35,220 typically a distributor pays producers 1421 00:55:39,890 --> 00:55:37,020 production companies 1422 00:55:42,290 --> 00:55:39,900 um to make content well I used to have 1423 00:55:44,690 --> 00:55:42,300 this this brain tease I used to do when 1424 00:55:46,490 --> 00:55:44,700 I saw my friends all the time uh yeah 1425 00:55:48,349 --> 00:55:46,500 you know we've still they're figuring it 1426 00:55:50,990 --> 00:55:48,359 out well we have but 1427 00:55:52,910 --> 00:55:51,000 um when all the content is free who gets 1428 00:55:56,150 --> 00:55:52,920 paid to make content 1429 00:55:58,670 --> 00:55:56,160 well you do and when I say you I mean 1430 00:56:01,309 --> 00:55:58,680 you all of you because you are the 1431 00:56:04,370 --> 00:56:01,319 content and so YouTube has destroyed 1432 00:56:06,710 --> 00:56:04,380 producers and said if you make content 1433 00:56:08,569 --> 00:56:06,720 we're going to cut you in to a small 1434 00:56:10,309 --> 00:56:08,579 percentage that we would normally pay 1435 00:56:11,750 --> 00:56:10,319 for producers because you get a 20 some 1436 00:56:13,010 --> 00:56:11,760 odd percent markup we're gonna give you 1437 00:56:15,170 --> 00:56:13,020 one percent and pocket the other 20 1438 00:56:17,390 --> 00:56:15,180 something so now fast forward to now 1439 00:56:19,010 --> 00:56:17,400 where AI comes into play and so now you 1440 00:56:21,010 --> 00:56:19,020 have ai and there's a new what is that 1441 00:56:23,990 --> 00:56:21,020 of you but one one of the one of the 1442 00:56:26,210 --> 00:56:24,000 multimodal AIS right now um that is 1443 00:56:29,870 --> 00:56:26,220 catching getting making a lot of waves 1444 00:56:32,809 --> 00:56:29,880 is called Runway and so Runway Gen 2 is 1445 00:56:35,930 --> 00:56:32,819 uh is supposed to be a an amazing text 1446 00:56:39,170 --> 00:56:35,940 to Video Creator now 1447 00:56:40,970 --> 00:56:39,180 all this is we're going to put all the 1448 00:56:42,650 --> 00:56:40,980 IP and all that stuff aside because 1449 00:56:45,230 --> 00:56:42,660 that's another night and error and 1450 00:56:47,530 --> 00:56:45,240 that's a five hour conversation but when 1451 00:56:52,010 --> 00:56:47,540 it comes to making content 1452 00:56:54,290 --> 00:56:52,020 someone like YouTube Who currently is 1453 00:56:56,569 --> 00:56:54,300 the pipeline to distribution the 1454 00:56:59,150 --> 00:56:56,579 creation of distribution pipeline 1455 00:57:00,589 --> 00:56:59,160 why would they even cut a human in 1456 00:57:03,470 --> 00:57:00,599 anymore at all 1457 00:57:06,230 --> 00:57:03,480 so their algorithm determines where the 1458 00:57:08,510 --> 00:57:06,240 viewership is and then directs and pumps 1459 00:57:11,210 --> 00:57:08,520 that up and then puts the ads on top of 1460 00:57:17,109 --> 00:57:11,220 it so let's just say I I've literally 1461 00:57:21,650 --> 00:57:19,790 yeah people pick up pencils throw them 1462 00:57:23,210 --> 00:57:21,660 at the ceiling oh my God it's the hot 1463 00:57:26,450 --> 00:57:23,220 new craze everyone's throwing pencils at 1464 00:57:30,710 --> 00:57:26,460 the ceiling great YouTube tells their AI 1465 00:57:32,930 --> 00:57:30,720 text to video generator make me 1466 00:57:34,849 --> 00:57:32,940 ten thousand different variations of 1467 00:57:36,349 --> 00:57:34,859 people throwing a pencil at the ceiling 1468 00:57:37,790 --> 00:57:36,359 making all different types of people 1469 00:57:39,290 --> 00:57:37,800 every intersectional quality you can 1470 00:57:40,790 --> 00:57:39,300 think of every nationality every 1471 00:57:43,309 --> 00:57:40,800 language every everything 1472 00:57:46,010 --> 00:57:43,319 release them all and see what happens 1473 00:57:47,750 --> 00:57:46,020 and then slowly some will get gravitated 1474 00:57:49,849 --> 00:57:47,760 toward until they Peak and then that's 1475 00:57:52,370 --> 00:57:49,859 where their ads are going to go 1476 00:57:53,569 --> 00:57:52,380 where's the human 1477 00:57:56,150 --> 00:57:53,579 it's over 1478 00:57:59,329 --> 00:57:56,160 there's no more human so you could have 1479 00:58:02,049 --> 00:57:59,339 kids who spend five hours a day watching 1480 00:58:04,370 --> 00:58:02,059 screams of people they think are people 1481 00:58:06,290 --> 00:58:04,380 but are people 1482 00:58:08,690 --> 00:58:06,300 they're AI generated 1483 00:58:13,010 --> 00:58:08,700 and so now it's you're watching it's 1484 00:58:15,950 --> 00:58:13,020 it's just crazy messed up Matrix like oh 1485 00:58:17,329 --> 00:58:15,960 my God and not one piece of human 1486 00:58:18,650 --> 00:58:17,339 interaction and then eventually that'll 1487 00:58:20,930 --> 00:58:18,660 just be automated towards writing its 1488 00:58:24,069 --> 00:58:20,940 own like its own text props 1489 00:58:27,109 --> 00:58:24,079 um so that is my dystopian future 1490 00:58:28,790 --> 00:58:27,119 content distribution and creation uh 1491 00:58:30,490 --> 00:58:28,800 that's where I see it going and it's 1492 00:58:32,390 --> 00:58:30,500 scary and I hate it 1493 00:58:34,549 --> 00:58:32,400 right yeah I see what you're saying 1494 00:58:36,410 --> 00:58:34,559 there and it becomes this on-demand 1495 00:58:39,710 --> 00:58:36,420 recursive 1496 00:58:41,030 --> 00:58:39,720 uh monster essentially like the more 1497 00:58:43,069 --> 00:58:41,040 that you watch the more that you 1498 00:58:44,750 --> 00:58:43,079 influence the more that it creates the 1499 00:58:47,030 --> 00:58:44,760 faster that it can create the more 1500 00:58:49,730 --> 00:58:47,040 iterative it can be you know it just 1501 00:58:50,710 --> 00:58:49,740 this this endless you're never getting 1502 00:58:53,390 --> 00:58:50,720 out again 1503 00:58:55,789 --> 00:58:53,400 it's true it I just don't know what 1504 00:58:57,589 --> 00:58:55,799 we're all going to do for jobs 1505 00:58:58,849 --> 00:58:57,599 now I want to ask you this uh have you 1506 00:59:02,329 --> 00:58:58,859 have you used it yet have you used any 1507 00:59:04,190 --> 00:59:02,339 of the tools every day I used so I put I 1508 00:59:04,970 --> 00:59:04,200 posted a thing I did on online on 1509 00:59:07,309 --> 00:59:04,980 Twitter 1510 00:59:09,589 --> 00:59:07,319 um I created a workflow so I mean I 1511 00:59:11,329 --> 00:59:09,599 could talk about AI forever uh right now 1512 00:59:14,690 --> 00:59:11,339 though you know one of the one of the 1513 00:59:16,910 --> 00:59:14,700 first casualties of AI will be single uh 1514 00:59:18,289 --> 00:59:16,920 single function applications 1515 00:59:20,270 --> 00:59:18,299 um and I approved it and one of the 1516 00:59:23,390 --> 00:59:20,280 things that I did so 1517 00:59:25,250 --> 00:59:23,400 um I had I had an idea where uh it's not 1518 00:59:27,109 --> 00:59:25,260 unique no one's ideas are unique no 1519 00:59:34,210 --> 00:59:27,119 one's a beautiful unique stuff like it's 1520 00:59:40,430 --> 00:59:38,150 but the uh and so my so what I did as a 1521 00:59:41,569 --> 00:59:40,440 test is I took a bunch of Legos and I 1522 00:59:42,829 --> 00:59:41,579 threw them on the floor 1523 00:59:44,510 --> 00:59:42,839 and so I did a combination of three 1524 00:59:46,130 --> 00:59:44,520 different two different three different 1525 00:59:48,170 --> 00:59:46,140 AIS and I posted a Twitter third about 1526 00:59:49,490 --> 00:59:48,180 this on my on my Twitter third where I I 1527 00:59:52,010 --> 00:59:49,500 took some Legos I threw them on the 1528 00:59:55,250 --> 00:59:52,020 floor and I took a photo and I fed the 1529 00:59:57,730 --> 00:59:55,260 photo to Bard Bard is Google's AI and I 1530 01:00:00,710 --> 00:59:57,740 said can you identify what these are 1531 01:00:02,630 --> 01:00:00,720 looks like yes and I got very specific 1532 01:00:05,690 --> 01:00:02,640 and uh and I was like you know give me 1533 01:00:07,190 --> 01:00:05,700 the color and the product number and it 1534 01:00:09,950 --> 01:00:07,200 was like there's 100 here's 147 1535 01:00:11,990 --> 01:00:09,960 different Legos there's 72 of these 2016 1536 01:00:14,809 --> 01:00:12,000 all the way down the line I was like 1537 01:00:17,809 --> 01:00:14,819 great now uh so I took that over to 1538 01:00:20,450 --> 01:00:17,819 chatgpt and I said give me three objects 1539 01:00:22,250 --> 01:00:20,460 I can build from these 147 Legos and it 1540 01:00:25,789 --> 01:00:22,260 did and I said okay now write those 1541 01:00:27,770 --> 01:00:25,799 instructions it was like a house a robot 1542 01:00:30,349 --> 01:00:27,780 and a bridge I was like okay let's build 1543 01:00:31,609 --> 01:00:30,359 the house give me the instructions uh 1544 01:00:32,870 --> 01:00:31,619 give me step by step instruction on how 1545 01:00:34,670 --> 01:00:32,880 to build a house 1546 01:00:36,170 --> 01:00:34,680 um which it did and I corrected and make 1547 01:00:38,750 --> 01:00:36,180 sure it wrote it so a 10 year old can 1548 01:00:41,750 --> 01:00:38,760 understand it and build it and then I 1549 01:00:44,030 --> 01:00:41,760 said now modify that modify those 1550 01:00:47,569 --> 01:00:44,040 instructions so I can feed those as a 1551 01:00:49,670 --> 01:00:47,579 prompt to a text to image generator 1552 01:00:51,950 --> 01:00:49,680 which it did and then I took that text 1553 01:00:54,789 --> 01:00:51,960 to image generation prompt and I sent it 1554 01:00:58,250 --> 01:00:54,799 over to Dali and then Dali did renders 1555 01:01:00,710 --> 01:00:58,260 of the freaking houses that could be 1556 01:01:02,450 --> 01:01:00,720 built from those Legos I did my whole I 1557 01:01:03,650 --> 01:01:02,460 have a whole thread you can read my 1558 01:01:04,930 --> 01:01:03,660 whole process all the prompts and 1559 01:01:09,349 --> 01:01:04,940 everything I used 1560 01:01:13,549 --> 01:01:09,359 that um that workflow is a good example 1561 01:01:15,710 --> 01:01:13,559 of a very simple use of how 1562 01:01:18,230 --> 01:01:15,720 all of it is baked in 1563 01:01:19,910 --> 01:01:18,240 it's baked into the data set it's baked 1564 01:01:23,390 --> 01:01:19,920 into What's called the Corpus of data 1565 01:01:25,670 --> 01:01:23,400 like that's it it's over like the next 1566 01:01:27,410 --> 01:01:25,680 step is is you better find a way to plug 1567 01:01:28,970 --> 01:01:27,420 ourselves in 1568 01:01:30,530 --> 01:01:28,980 um because does everything better in 1569 01:01:31,789 --> 01:01:30,540 fashion than we can and I just did that 1570 01:01:33,349 --> 01:01:31,799 for fun on the weekend I was like oh I 1571 01:01:34,490 --> 01:01:33,359 wonder if I could do this and sure 1572 01:01:36,770 --> 01:01:34,500 enough 1573 01:01:40,130 --> 01:01:36,780 um so I love it I mean the uses are 1574 01:01:41,990 --> 01:01:40,140 amazing but I'll tell you this 1575 01:01:43,670 --> 01:01:42,000 um I'm sorry I'm going on these tangents 1576 01:01:46,250 --> 01:01:43,680 you guys I know I apologize 1577 01:01:49,069 --> 01:01:46,260 um but you asked so I feel like I gotta 1578 01:01:51,109 --> 01:01:49,079 tell you absolutely uh I'm trying to 1579 01:01:53,750 --> 01:01:51,119 find I remember 1580 01:01:56,089 --> 01:01:53,760 my um 1581 01:01:57,530 --> 01:01:56,099 my presentation or my discussion this 1582 01:01:59,150 --> 01:01:57,540 has been clunky and I'm still working it 1583 01:02:00,770 --> 01:01:59,160 out but 1584 01:02:04,069 --> 01:02:00,780 what we're seeing now I've witnessed 1585 01:02:06,230 --> 01:02:04,079 once already in the.com boom and 1586 01:02:07,789 --> 01:02:06,240 uh what was happening then was everyone 1587 01:02:09,650 --> 01:02:07,799 was like oh my God we got to be on 1588 01:02:11,089 --> 01:02:09,660 social media we have to be online all of 1589 01:02:12,230 --> 01:02:11,099 these companies but they didn't know 1590 01:02:14,870 --> 01:02:12,240 what they were going to do they were 1591 01:02:17,270 --> 01:02:14,880 gonna do their thing online which was 1592 01:02:17,930 --> 01:02:17,280 advertising okay great 1593 01:02:20,329 --> 01:02:17,940 um 1594 01:02:23,450 --> 01:02:20,339 we're witnessing right now 1595 01:02:25,250 --> 01:02:23,460 every company and every person believes 1596 01:02:28,130 --> 01:02:25,260 they need to use AI 1597 01:02:29,210 --> 01:02:28,140 but what they're going to do with AI is 1598 01:02:30,770 --> 01:02:29,220 they're going to do what they're already 1599 01:02:34,010 --> 01:02:30,780 doing 1600 01:02:37,430 --> 01:02:34,020 with but adding a layer of AI on top of 1601 01:02:39,410 --> 01:02:37,440 it so I'm gonna be instacart but with 1602 01:02:41,809 --> 01:02:39,420 chat gbt I'm going to be blah blah blah 1603 01:02:43,849 --> 01:02:41,819 with chat gbt great 1604 01:02:45,829 --> 01:02:43,859 so they're all forgetting first they're 1605 01:02:48,230 --> 01:02:45,839 sharing all their [\h__\h] their data 1606 01:02:49,130 --> 01:02:48,240 with them which is we haven't learned 1607 01:02:51,530 --> 01:02:49,140 anything 1608 01:02:53,569 --> 01:02:51,540 um but so this is great this first step 1609 01:02:55,250 --> 01:02:53,579 this is the first step and so what 1610 01:02:57,950 --> 01:02:55,260 you'll have is all of these want these 1611 01:03:00,589 --> 01:02:57,960 single-use applications die off 1612 01:03:02,870 --> 01:03:00,599 um the next iteration is what we can't 1613 01:03:06,710 --> 01:03:02,880 imagine yet and so 1614 01:03:08,210 --> 01:03:06,720 we don't know anything that because we 1615 01:03:09,410 --> 01:03:08,220 have not had it long enough that we 1616 01:03:12,170 --> 01:03:09,420 haven't played with it long enough or 1617 01:03:15,190 --> 01:03:12,180 developed anything so specifically for 1618 01:03:17,329 --> 01:03:15,200 it everything that's being used with AI 1619 01:03:19,190 --> 01:03:17,339 existed before it 1620 01:03:21,530 --> 01:03:19,200 so we have not decide figured out 1621 01:03:24,170 --> 01:03:21,540 anything that could not have existed yet 1622 01:03:26,030 --> 01:03:24,180 and built it with it that's where the 1623 01:03:28,370 --> 01:03:26,040 real Innovation happens and I think I 1624 01:03:30,589 --> 01:03:28,380 always try to use the equation like like 1625 01:03:34,609 --> 01:03:30,599 the uh the analogy of like a 1626 01:03:38,030 --> 01:03:34,619 refrigerator or a freezer or or some 1627 01:03:39,829 --> 01:03:38,040 kind of storage device that was created 1628 01:03:42,289 --> 01:03:39,839 and everyone's like oh great I can now 1629 01:03:43,670 --> 01:03:42,299 put my stuff in here okay when you're 1630 01:03:45,410 --> 01:03:43,680 putting stuff that existed before the 1631 01:03:47,930 --> 01:03:45,420 device in the device 1632 01:03:49,609 --> 01:03:47,940 what does the creation of that device 1633 01:03:50,510 --> 01:03:49,619 now allow you to do that you couldn't do 1634 01:03:52,250 --> 01:03:50,520 before 1635 01:03:54,230 --> 01:03:52,260 and that's where we're at and we haven't 1636 01:03:56,930 --> 01:03:54,240 figured that out and my I know my 1637 01:03:58,549 --> 01:03:56,940 description's clunky but um I feel like 1638 01:04:00,049 --> 01:03:58,559 there's something deeper in there and 1639 01:04:02,990 --> 01:04:00,059 some bigger brain person will figure it 1640 01:04:04,309 --> 01:04:03,000 out but that's where this this is what I 1641 01:04:07,430 --> 01:04:04,319 see is like 1642 01:04:09,049 --> 01:04:07,440 we're all just playing right now and 1643 01:04:11,270 --> 01:04:09,059 it's gonna it's gonna happen I feel like 1644 01:04:12,049 --> 01:04:11,280 a switch is gonna be flipped and some 1645 01:04:14,349 --> 01:04:12,059 people are going to come out of the 1646 01:04:17,270 --> 01:04:14,359 woodwork like guess what I did I created 1647 01:04:20,450 --> 01:04:17,280 Fusion I created faster than a light 1648 01:04:22,430 --> 01:04:20,460 flight I did all this because of AI 1649 01:04:25,490 --> 01:04:22,440 um hey I can do a you know 100 000 1650 01:04:26,870 --> 01:04:25,500 iterations of a car design in 10 seconds 1651 01:04:29,150 --> 01:04:26,880 you know what I'm saying like something 1652 01:04:31,849 --> 01:04:29,160 like stupid like that and it's like 1653 01:04:34,910 --> 01:04:31,859 like watch uh the animatrix animatrix is 1654 01:04:37,250 --> 01:04:34,920 a good take on it um they when the AI 1655 01:04:39,650 --> 01:04:37,260 becomes sentient uh then 1656 01:04:40,549 --> 01:04:39,660 um but anyway I'm sorry that was my oh 1657 01:04:42,650 --> 01:04:40,559 that's great we're headed for an 1658 01:04:45,230 --> 01:04:42,660 inflection point I I agree and uh and 1659 01:04:47,390 --> 01:04:45,240 it's almost like an alien technology uh 1660 01:04:49,789 --> 01:04:47,400 so I I always spend a lot of times that 1661 01:04:52,069 --> 01:04:49,799 is my question right there you go sorry 1662 01:04:54,410 --> 01:04:52,079 I didn't mean to take it from you 1663 01:04:55,970 --> 01:04:54,420 we spent a lot of time on it I I could I 1664 01:04:58,910 --> 01:04:55,980 could just like you TJ I could go in for 1665 01:05:01,069 --> 01:04:58,920 hours on this on this yeah sorry I I uh 1666 01:05:02,930 --> 01:05:01,079 I wrote a couple papers on it when uh 1667 01:05:06,589 --> 01:05:02,940 not too long before I met Nathan because 1668 01:05:09,710 --> 01:05:06,599 I graduated just before that and um I'm 1669 01:05:11,990 --> 01:05:09,720 not a big fan of strong AI or AGI just 1670 01:05:13,849 --> 01:05:12,000 because the morality factor and they 1671 01:05:16,250 --> 01:05:13,859 discussed this on Lex Friedman's recent 1672 01:05:19,069 --> 01:05:16,260 podcast they said oh well all we need to 1673 01:05:21,650 --> 01:05:19,079 do is just have the morality and the 1674 01:05:25,130 --> 01:05:21,660 thought process you know uh work as fast 1675 01:05:26,690 --> 01:05:25,140 as as the Technologies is is uh gaining 1676 01:05:28,130 --> 01:05:26,700 Steam and the problem is but yeah that's 1677 01:05:30,230 --> 01:05:28,140 the that's the problem because that's 1678 01:05:32,329 --> 01:05:30,240 not going to happen I think we've proved 1679 01:05:35,450 --> 01:05:32,339 it I'm gonna ask you a question DJ who's 1680 01:05:38,650 --> 01:05:35,460 morality who's morals well exactly uh 1681 01:05:42,049 --> 01:05:38,660 human so so 1682 01:05:45,049 --> 01:05:42,059 allowing it to you know giving it access 1683 01:05:46,549 --> 01:05:45,059 to a lot of things right which humans is 1684 01:05:50,210 --> 01:05:46,559 the thing right it's it's not being 1685 01:05:52,010 --> 01:05:50,220 regulated in any way and I I studied 1686 01:05:56,270 --> 01:05:52,020 some like a Georgia Tech Professor who 1687 01:05:59,210 --> 01:05:56,280 said that he taught they taught AI to be 1688 01:06:01,730 --> 01:05:59,220 able to play a trick or to deceive 1689 01:06:03,710 --> 01:06:01,740 another robot in a game that they had 1690 01:06:05,329 --> 01:06:03,720 and he said if you can do that how would 1691 01:06:07,069 --> 01:06:05,339 I know it's telling me the truth you 1692 01:06:09,289 --> 01:06:07,079 know it could say well it's in your best 1693 01:06:11,990 --> 01:06:09,299 interest that I deceive you so I think 1694 01:06:13,849 --> 01:06:12,000 when you get to that level I I don't I 1695 01:06:16,190 --> 01:06:13,859 agree that it can do many things it may 1696 01:06:18,289 --> 01:06:16,200 find a cure for cancer for all I know 1697 01:06:20,390 --> 01:06:18,299 like you said Fusion or a propulsion 1698 01:06:23,150 --> 01:06:20,400 system that we hadn't thought of I got I 1699 01:06:25,430 --> 01:06:23,160 got that but I'm talking about when it's 1700 01:06:27,650 --> 01:06:25,440 just on on you know you just sort of 1701 01:06:30,170 --> 01:06:27,660 release it to to do its own thing I I 1702 01:06:32,750 --> 01:06:30,180 don't I don't trust that the right 1703 01:06:34,549 --> 01:06:32,760 safeguards will be put in place that uh 1704 01:06:36,890 --> 01:06:34,559 it will in fact experiments have been 1705 01:06:39,589 --> 01:06:36,900 have done lately where it started to to 1706 01:06:42,109 --> 01:06:39,599 try to uh set up chats and do things and 1707 01:06:44,930 --> 01:06:42,119 and I I don't I don't trust it so I'm 1708 01:06:47,990 --> 01:06:44,940 not a fan but let's let's see if we can 1709 01:06:49,549 --> 01:06:48,000 draw away from Ai and back to the woman 1710 01:06:52,549 --> 01:06:49,559 who joined us who you remember from last 1711 01:06:54,829 --> 01:06:52,559 time Deb yes Deb the study of uap's Deb 1712 01:06:57,170 --> 01:06:54,839 do you have a topic for us to consider 1713 01:06:59,230 --> 01:06:57,180 tonight yeah so this thing happened 1714 01:07:01,789 --> 01:06:59,240 today 1715 01:07:03,650 --> 01:07:01,799 it was a small little thing it was a 1716 01:07:05,930 --> 01:07:03,660 senate hearing 1717 01:07:07,849 --> 01:07:05,940 um involving uh you know this little 1718 01:07:09,770 --> 01:07:07,859 thing called Arrow 1719 01:07:11,569 --> 01:07:09,780 um and I just wanted to you know float 1720 01:07:14,329 --> 01:07:11,579 that around some interesting things came 1721 01:07:17,150 --> 01:07:14,339 up and that hearing you know like 600 1722 01:07:18,710 --> 01:07:17,160 cases were being reviewed you know 1723 01:07:21,650 --> 01:07:18,720 things like that and some things that 1724 01:07:23,329 --> 01:07:21,660 should have been brought up or not but 1725 01:07:25,250 --> 01:07:23,339 um I just wanted to get your guys's 1726 01:07:27,529 --> 01:07:25,260 perspective on that and you know the 1727 01:07:30,829 --> 01:07:27,539 Paranormal being part of the government 1728 01:07:33,109 --> 01:07:30,839 and what that might mean for everybody 1729 01:07:36,049 --> 01:07:33,119 well let's go to Matt first and then TJ 1730 01:07:38,230 --> 01:07:36,059 myself and Nathan so Matt uh I I haven't 1731 01:07:41,569 --> 01:07:38,240 seen the results of it I'm not aware of 1732 01:07:44,930 --> 01:07:41,579 exactly what happened but in general 1733 01:07:48,230 --> 01:07:44,940 yeah I have no idea what happened 1734 01:07:50,150 --> 01:07:48,240 I'm gonna give a horrible take I I don't 1735 01:07:52,970 --> 01:07:50,160 know they're looking at 600 cases so 1736 01:07:55,730 --> 01:07:52,980 that's what uh this year so far like 1737 01:07:58,089 --> 01:07:55,740 where are they getting the cases from 1738 01:08:01,490 --> 01:07:58,099 that's a good question they did not say 1739 01:08:03,170 --> 01:08:01,500 it's a lot more than 144 that they came 1740 01:08:05,329 --> 01:08:03,180 up with two years ago though right or 1741 01:08:07,730 --> 01:08:05,339 what was it a year ago when that report 1742 01:08:11,569 --> 01:08:07,740 came out was it late 21 1743 01:08:15,410 --> 01:08:11,579 so um so yeah I mean don't you think now 1744 01:08:17,209 --> 01:08:15,420 that it's become more public and uh the 1745 01:08:18,590 --> 01:08:17,219 government you know is stepping forward 1746 01:08:19,729 --> 01:08:18,600 with information and doing these 1747 01:08:22,490 --> 01:08:19,739 hearings and everything 1748 01:08:23,990 --> 01:08:22,500 don't you think that might uh possibly 1749 01:08:25,550 --> 01:08:24,000 lead to 1750 01:08:28,849 --> 01:08:25,560 more 1751 01:08:33,169 --> 01:08:28,859 sightings and reports of things that 1752 01:08:36,110 --> 01:08:33,179 aren't necessarily factual or 1753 01:08:38,329 --> 01:08:36,120 worth entering into the data set 1754 01:08:39,709 --> 01:08:38,339 yeah I think he actually did say during 1755 01:08:42,590 --> 01:08:39,719 the hearing that they're working on 1756 01:08:44,329 --> 01:08:42,600 cleaning up the protocols for reporting 1757 01:08:46,070 --> 01:08:44,339 but they're also going to have an 1758 01:08:48,349 --> 01:08:46,080 increase in that number because they're 1759 01:08:50,689 --> 01:08:48,359 going to make people report 1760 01:08:52,849 --> 01:08:50,699 so there's both happening 1761 01:08:54,709 --> 01:08:52,859 but those numbers aren't coming from man 1762 01:08:58,249 --> 01:08:54,719 on the street those are coming from 1763 01:08:59,990 --> 01:08:58,259 probably DOD sources or Affiliated 1764 01:09:02,450 --> 01:09:00,000 sources like you know we'll go back to 1765 01:09:04,550 --> 01:09:02,460 Department Homeland Security uh Army 1766 01:09:06,950 --> 01:09:04,560 Navy Air Force Marine Corps and then 1767 01:09:10,189 --> 01:09:06,960 other other government agencies so I 1768 01:09:12,829 --> 01:09:10,199 don't think that's coming from Bob from 1769 01:09:14,689 --> 01:09:12,839 Des Moines who saw something in the sky 1770 01:09:16,970 --> 01:09:14,699 so that's 1771 01:09:19,189 --> 01:09:16,980 that that's would be my take on a TJ 1772 01:09:21,410 --> 01:09:19,199 what would you like to say about uh the 1773 01:09:23,930 --> 01:09:21,420 Senate hearings on UAP today 1774 01:09:26,630 --> 01:09:23,940 so I I 1775 01:09:27,890 --> 01:09:26,640 didn't pay attention because I know the 1776 01:09:30,890 --> 01:09:27,900 result 1777 01:09:32,269 --> 01:09:30,900 um which is nothing 1778 01:09:34,309 --> 01:09:32,279 um 1779 01:09:36,590 --> 01:09:34,319 no it's nothing 1780 01:09:38,390 --> 01:09:36,600 um I'm very I'm I'm one of those and I 1781 01:09:39,669 --> 01:09:38,400 hate to you know I'm very vocal about it 1782 01:09:42,410 --> 01:09:39,679 like I I 1783 01:09:44,150 --> 01:09:42,420 and uh 1784 01:09:46,010 --> 01:09:44,160 very outspoken when it comes to the 1785 01:09:47,749 --> 01:09:46,020 government involvement in any of this 1786 01:09:50,329 --> 01:09:47,759 any of the phenomenon stuff because 1787 01:09:52,789 --> 01:09:50,339 there's no scenario in which they will 1788 01:09:55,010 --> 01:09:52,799 ever release anything 1789 01:09:57,410 --> 01:09:55,020 without any benefit to them 1790 01:09:59,930 --> 01:09:57,420 there

01:14:06,000 need to know certain things that I 1906 01:14:12,410 --> 01:14:08,040 didn't and he says 1907 01:14:14,570 --> 01:14:12,420 they know more than we do but they 1908 01:14:16,550 --> 01:14:14,580 they don't they don't understand what 1909 01:14:19,130 --> 01:14:16,560 this is and they're at a deficit to try 1910 01:14:20,450 --> 01:14:19,140 to explain it to the American people

the American people and 1914 01:14:30,169 --> 01:14:27,239 the cabbies have heard me say ad nauseum 1915 01:14:32,689 --> 01:14:30,179 that until you do something to make them 1916 01:14:34,370 --> 01:14:32,699 move from the position in which they're 1917 01:14:36,470 --> 01:14:34,380 entrenched they will not move they have 1918 01:14:38,630 --> 01:14:36,480 no reason to move the only reason that 1919 01:14:42,410 --> 01:14:38,640 they did move is because of what Lou 1920 01:14:44,090 --> 01:14:42,420 Elizondo and Tom Delong and Jim semvan 1921 01:14:46,430 --> 01:14:44,100 and all these

those 2186 01:25:20,510 --> 01:25:18,120 things man I I just don't know like I 2187 01:25:22,310 --> 01:25:20,520 need to see it like just we can't all be 2188 01:25:23,390 --> 01:25:22,320 hallucinating you know not everyone 2189 01:25:25,970 --> 01:25:23,400 could just be having the same 2190 01:25:27,910 --> 01:25:25,980 hallucination so Matt Matt has seen them 2191 01:25:31,130 --> 01:25:27,920 TJ 2192 01:25:32,570 --> 01:25:31,140 that's where I was you know I'm I'm a 2193 01:25:34,970 --> 01:25:32,580 skeptical person and even now I'm 2194 01:25:37,010 --> 01:25:34,980 extremely skeptical I think DJ gets 2195 01:25:38,390 --> 01:25:37,020 irritated at me sometimes because he'll 2196 01:25:39,649 --> 01:25:38,400 call me up and be like have you heard 2197 01:25:42,470 --> 01:25:39,659 this story I was like yeah that's BS 2198 01:25:46,310 --> 01:25:44,169 I don't get irritated 2199 01:25:47,689 --> 01:25:46,320 I had to go out there and see from me 2200 01:25:49,310 --> 01:25:47,699 for myself like what is going on this 2201 01:25:52,430 --> 01:25:49,320 can't be true this can't possibly be 2202 01:25:54,709 --> 01:25:52,440 true and I went out there and had my 2203 01:25:57,169 --> 01:25:54,719 life changed forever and here I am 20 2204 01:25:59,450 --> 01:25:57,179 plus years later uh still talking about 2205 01:26:01,850 --> 01:25:59,460 it on a daily basis you know talking 2206 01:26:05,149 --> 01:26:01,860 about it right now 2207 01:26:07,010 --> 01:26:05,159 but after all that time and like you 2208 01:26:08,570 --> 01:26:07,020 were talking about experts knowing the 2209 01:26:10,370 --> 01:26:08,580 history and all the anecdotal stories 2210 01:26:13,129 --> 01:26:10,380 and everything with all that information 2211 01:26:14,510 --> 01:26:13,139 knowing the entire history 2212 01:26:16,189 --> 01:26:14,520 I don't 2213 01:26:18,950 --> 01:26:16,199 I'm not any closer to an explanation 2214 01:26:21,950 --> 01:26:18,960 than I was before I ever saw one 2215 01:26:24,709 --> 01:26:21,960 and to me that's the real mystery behind 2216 01:26:27,410 --> 01:26:24,719 this thing because if these things are 2217 01:26:29,510 --> 01:26:27,420 just some undiscovered primate like you 2218 01:26:30,590 --> 01:26:29,520 know the mainstream thought process is 2219 01:26:32,750 --> 01:26:30,600 on them 2220 01:26:36,290 --> 01:26:32,760 then we would have something by now 2221 01:26:38,870 --> 01:26:36,300 surely surely we're that capable I mean 2222 01:26:41,090 --> 01:26:38,880 there is a gentleman out in the Pacific 2223 01:26:43,310 --> 01:26:41,100 Northwest who is a billionaire who has 2224 01:26:44,930 --> 01:26:43,320 Finance groups and hunts and thrown 2225 01:26:47,149 --> 01:26:44,940 money at this thing for years and years 2226 01:26:48,830 --> 01:26:47,159 and years and he's not the only one 2227 01:26:50,390 --> 01:26:48,840 there's another billionaire from Texas 2228 01:26:53,810 --> 01:26:50,400 somewhere that I heard about that does 2229 01:26:57,050 --> 01:26:53,820 the same thing so even with the money 2230 01:26:58,490 --> 01:26:57,060 and the Manpower it still doesn't happen 2231 01:27:00,890 --> 01:26:58,500 because they're doing it wrong with any 2232 01:27:02,149 --> 01:27:00,900 TV people well they're they're usually 2233 01:27:04,189 --> 01:27:02,159 people really are pressure to get 2234 01:27:06,770 --> 01:27:04,199 something made they're really really 2235 01:27:08,629 --> 01:27:06,780 smart and they know the woods the way 2236 01:27:10,729 --> 01:27:08,639 that you know the inside of that office 2237 01:27:13,669 --> 01:27:10,739 that you're in right there that's their 2238 01:27:16,310 --> 01:27:13,679 home and they're very very good at at 2239 01:27:18,530 --> 01:27:16,320 hearing using all of their senses to 2240 01:27:20,450 --> 01:27:18,540 stay away from you or scaring you when 2241 01:27:28,030 --> 01:27:20,460 they want you to to back up and head 2242 01:27:32,450 --> 01:27:30,649 we can interpret it we can decide like 2243 01:27:33,950 --> 01:27:32,460 you know people can think like oh they 2244 01:27:34,910 --> 01:27:33,960 they do know or they don't know these 2245 01:27:36,709 --> 01:27:34,920 things they do know these things they 2246 01:27:37,689 --> 01:27:36,719 know the ones in other words 2247 01:27:40,729 --> 01:27:37,699 um 2248 01:27:42,830 --> 01:27:40,739 you know it's all speculation what I 2249 01:27:45,110 --> 01:27:42,840 find one of the things I find most 2250 01:27:47,390 --> 01:27:45,120 irritating about any expert in any of 2251 01:27:49,070 --> 01:27:47,400 these in any of these fields especially 2252 01:27:51,530 --> 01:27:49,080 the Bigfoot one is when I hear stuff 2253 01:27:54,410 --> 01:27:51,540 like well you know females live to be 2254 01:27:58,090 --> 01:27:54,420 about 140 years old and the child is 70 2255 01:28:03,169 --> 01:28:01,610 shut up you're a [\h__\h] don't tell me 2256 01:28:04,370 --> 01:28:03,179 these things and expect me to take you 2257 01:28:07,550 --> 01:28:04,380 seriously 2258 01:28:10,550 --> 01:28:07,560 um I get I get very you know I'm very 2259 01:28:13,370 --> 01:28:10,560 open about all this stuff like I I I I I 2260 01:28:16,070 --> 01:28:13,380 listen everybody tell me their stories 2261 01:28:17,629 --> 01:28:16,080 um but as soon as you try to piss on my 2262 01:28:19,330 --> 01:28:17,639 leg and tell me it's rained 2263 01:28:31,970 --> 01:28:19,340 I 2264 01:28:33,530 --> 01:28:31,980 into your office right there when you 2265 01:28:38,270 --> 01:28:33,540 walk in how long would it take you to 2266 01:28:40,570 --> 01:28:39,530 it's your question am I missing 2267 01:28:43,850 --> 01:28:40,580 something 2268 01:28:45,050 --> 01:28:43,860 the first thing that exactly so the 2269 01:28:46,790 --> 01:28:45,060 first thing would happen when you'd open 2270 01:28:49,850 --> 01:28:46,800 the doors you'd say oh somebody put a 2271 01:28:52,250 --> 01:28:49,860 potted Cypress in my office and that's 2272 01:28:54,530 --> 01:28:52,260 how Bigfoot is when there's a trail cam 2273 01:28:56,209 --> 01:28:54,540 or there's something that's inorganic 2274 01:28:58,910 --> 01:28:56,219 that is that comes into their 2275 01:29:01,370 --> 01:28:58,920 environment uh whether it's a vehicle 2276 01:29:03,410 --> 01:29:01,380 that pulls up they can hear you coming 2277 01:29:06,050 --> 01:29:03,420 down the dirt road parking the trailhead 2278 01:29:09,350 --> 01:29:06,060 getting slamming the doors setting up 2279 01:29:10,430 --> 01:29:09,360 camp interesting things yeah so what do 2280 01:29:12,229 --> 01:29:10,440 you think about the Canadian government 2281 01:29:14,390 --> 01:29:12,239 when they were going to do that that 2282 01:29:15,530 --> 01:29:14,400 blink project the heat sensor Blue 2283 01:29:18,250 --> 01:29:15,540 Project 2284 01:29:23,570 --> 01:29:22,010 of course I do are you kidding me what 2285 01:29:26,149 --> 01:29:23,580 happened to that like okay 2286 01:29:28,850 --> 01:29:26,159 now that's out of the box thinking 2287 01:29:30,290 --> 01:29:28,860 what is it I mean that it's our it had 2288 01:29:33,169 --> 01:29:30,300 already been done years prior to that 2289 01:29:37,129 --> 01:29:33,179 yeah on a television series as a matter 2290 01:29:39,470 --> 01:29:37,139 of fact uh you know and and that was 2291 01:29:42,169 --> 01:29:39,480 again uh 2292 01:29:44,330 --> 01:29:42,179 problems with humans got in the way uh 2293 01:29:47,570 --> 01:29:44,340 and the project 2294 01:29:49,790 --> 01:29:47,580 a good plan on paper uh but wrong 2295 01:29:52,189 --> 01:29:49,800 parties behind it I guess are involved 2296 01:29:54,110 --> 01:29:52,199 with it and it kind of just fell apart 2297 01:29:56,390 --> 01:29:54,120 uh before it ever really had a chance 2298 01:29:58,790 --> 01:29:56,400 now we have the same abilities anybody I 2299 01:30:00,490 --> 01:29:58,800 you know with money I could go out and 2300 01:30:02,990 --> 01:30:00,500 buy a drone and do the same thing myself 2301 01:30:04,850 --> 01:30:03,000 on my own you wouldn't even need a big 2302 01:30:06,890 --> 01:30:04,860 funded blunt project of any kind of do 2303 01:30:09,470 --> 01:30:06,900 it I I don't know why people 2304 01:30:12,709 --> 01:30:09,480 aren't using drone technology with 2305 01:30:15,590 --> 01:30:12,719 thermal and video and everything uh I 2306 01:30:17,629 --> 01:30:15,600 think that's the way to go uh I've 2307 01:30:18,669 --> 01:30:17,639 recently been looking into a lidar 2308 01:30:21,350 --> 01:30:18,679 scanning 2309 01:30:22,790 --> 01:30:21,360 I think that's got some good 2310 01:30:23,870 --> 01:30:22,800 possibilities you know they're using it 2311 01:30:25,729 --> 01:30:23,880 for uh 2312 01:30:27,169 --> 01:30:25,739 human recovery situations where people 2313 01:30:28,430 --> 01:30:27,179 get lost in the wilderness and stuff 2314 01:30:30,169 --> 01:30:28,440 they're starting to use that along with 2315 01:30:33,530 --> 01:30:30,179 drone technology and I think that's 2316 01:30:36,830 --> 01:30:33,540 probably where the future of uh Bigfoot 2317 01:30:39,530 --> 01:30:36,840 research needs to go as far as 2318 01:30:41,030 --> 01:30:39,540 if your Ambitions are to prove their 2319 01:30:43,209 --> 01:30:41,040 existence I think that's probably the 2320 01:30:45,290 --> 01:30:43,219 best route at this point 2321 01:30:46,790 --> 01:30:45,300 what about those um what are those 2322 01:30:48,410 --> 01:30:46,800 satellites called 2323 01:30:50,270 --> 01:30:48,420 you can buy 2324 01:30:52,610 --> 01:30:50,280 satellites I'm not familiar with that 2325 01:30:55,370 --> 01:30:52,620 cubesat or something like that cubesats 2326 01:30:57,169 --> 01:30:55,380 that's what I was yes I was actually yes 2327 01:30:59,390 --> 01:30:57,179 cubesats 2328 01:31:02,090 --> 01:30:59,400 I feel like that's a that that's a tool 2329 01:31:03,890 --> 01:31:02,100 like that hasn't been ex explored for 2330 01:31:06,229 --> 01:31:03,900 that hunt yet 2331 01:31:08,330 --> 01:31:06,239 um I mean they're low order satellites 2332 01:31:10,729 --> 01:31:08,340 you can have any kind of sensor on if 2333 01:31:13,129 --> 01:31:10,739 you had enough money right um 2334 01:31:15,229 --> 01:31:13,139 this is this this could be a whole 2335 01:31:17,149 --> 01:31:15,239 discussion as to why people that do see 2336 01:31:19,129 --> 01:31:17,159 him aren't able to capture them I mean 2337 01:31:21,229 --> 01:31:19,139 Matt has been there he's seen other 2338 01:31:22,850 --> 01:31:21,239 people I'm not able to capture it on 2339 01:31:26,149 --> 01:31:22,860 film which is a whole nother discussion 2340 01:31:28,850 --> 01:31:26,159 but uh and Bigfoot is I mean it's just a 2341 01:31:30,229 --> 01:31:28,860 fascinating thing but what I thought you 2342 01:31:32,090 --> 01:31:30,239 know I want to make sure anybody else 2343 01:31:33,649 --> 01:31:32,100 has anything else but I did want to hear 2344 01:31:36,290 --> 01:31:33,659 your thoughts about Chris Bledsoe 2345 01:31:39,410 --> 01:31:36,300 because uh Nathan's neighbor there in 2346 01:31:42,350 --> 01:31:39,420 North Carolina from Fayetteville he is 2347 01:31:45,709 --> 01:31:42,360 probably the most well-known most 2348 01:31:48,649 --> 01:31:45,719 credible uh person who has interacted 2349 01:31:52,070 --> 01:31:48,659 enough three-letter agencies incredible 2350 01:31:53,930 --> 01:31:52,080 people scientists types have been down 2351 01:31:56,330 --> 01:31:53,940 there and visited with Chris Bledsoe and 2352 01:31:58,970 --> 01:31:56,340 so what is your your interaction and 2353 01:32:02,030 --> 01:31:58,980 your thoughts with him 2354 01:32:04,129 --> 01:32:02,040 so I'm Chris it's like 2355 01:32:05,810 --> 01:32:04,139 straight up dude right like that's the 2356 01:32:07,910 --> 01:32:05,820 best way to describe it 2357 01:32:12,709 --> 01:32:07,920 um and like I said I talked to him last 2358 01:32:16,550 --> 01:32:14,510 oh man 2359 01:32:18,169 --> 01:32:16,560 I I want to go into this when I don't 2360 01:32:20,990 --> 01:32:18,179 want to go into the stuff like uh 2361 01:32:24,830 --> 01:32:21,000 there's a lot there uh 2362 01:32:27,649 --> 01:32:24,840 I know like he's a um 2363 01:32:29,510 --> 01:32:27,659 I remember contacting him just as this 2364 01:32:31,970 --> 01:32:29,520 whole everything was starting thinking 2365 01:32:34,070 --> 01:32:31,980 like he is another 2366 01:32:36,050 --> 01:32:34,080 there's another narrative to be 2367 01:32:39,410 --> 01:32:36,060 constructed around all this 2368 01:32:42,770 --> 01:32:41,390 I understand if there's an angle you 2369 01:32:44,930 --> 01:32:42,780 don't want someone else who's 2370 01:32:46,669 --> 01:32:44,940 potentially looking crisp Bledsoe to 2371 01:32:48,350 --> 01:32:46,679 know what your angle might be for a 2372 01:32:50,590 --> 01:32:48,360 project I understand what is that what 2373 01:32:53,689 --> 01:32:50,600 you're 2374 01:32:54,950 --> 01:32:53,699 that's okay okay yeah there's there's I 2375 01:32:56,570 --> 01:32:54,960 feel like there's stuff there like that 2376 01:32:58,910 --> 01:32:56,580 I just uh 2377

01:34:11,820 right there's uh 2411 01:34:17,270 --> 01:34:15,000 there's weird stuff happening in reality 2412 01:34:19,910 --> 01:34:17,280 that we share 2413 01:34:21,890 --> 01:34:19,920 and it happens to people that we know 2414 01:34:24,169 --> 01:34:21,900 uh people that we encounter they're real 2415 01:34:26,030 --> 01:34:24,179 people they're credible people from all 2416 01:34:28,430 --> 01:34:26,040 walks of life in all parts of the world 2417 01:34:31,189 --> 01:34:28,440 and all kinds of cultures weird things 2418 01:34:34,550 --> 01:34:31,199 happen and they don't fit into the 2419 01:34:37,189 --> 01:34:34,560 conventional buckets that we'd like them 2420 01:34:39,770 --> 01:34:37,199 to right and so we spend 2421 01:34:42,169 --> 01:34:39,780 in some cases Our Lives just sort of 2422 01:34:45,530 --> 01:34:42,179 struggling with this or they or they 2423 01:34:47,870 --> 01:34:45,540 shape the direction of Our Lives and uh 2424 01:34:49,189 --> 01:34:47,880 you know what's weird about it too I 2425 01:34:53,570 --> 01:34:49,199 find is that 2426 01:34:56,030 --> 01:34:53,580 that's not necessarily all that uncommon 2427 01:34:58,250 --> 01:34:56,040 in the way that things influence us 2428 01:35:00,290 --> 01:34:58,260 right so you know you talked about when 2429 01:35:02,750 --> 01:35:00,300 you were a kid and you had your you know 2430 01:35:04,490 --> 01:35:02,760 your dream science Mansion right and and 2431 01:35:06,830 --> 01:35:04,500 here you are like kind of coming to a 2432 01:35:09,950 --> 01:35:06,840 show with a guy who basically has an 2433 01:35:14,890 --> 01:35:09,960 outdoor dream science Mansion right 2434 01:35:20,990 --> 01:35:17,810 that little vision like influenced your 2435 01:35:22,430 --> 01:35:21,000 life in a way right and uh and I I could 2436 01:35:24,169 --> 01:35:22,440 probably go in Lots I've never thought 2437 01:35:26,149 --> 01:35:24,179 of that dude on that it was awesome I've 2438 01:35:28,070 --> 01:35:26,159 never thought of that you know so I you 2439 01:35:30,050 --> 01:35:28,080 know we have we have we and this happens 2440 01:35:32,330 --> 01:35:30,060 in many different facets of our lives 2441 01:35:34,310 --> 01:35:32,340 right so the person that you end up with 2442 01:35:37,250 --> 01:35:34,320 you know you're whoever your partner is 2443 01:35:39,290 --> 01:35:37,260 the person that uh that you feel you 2444 01:35:41,750 --> 01:35:39,300 know is is your best friend or the the 2445 01:35:44,750 --> 01:35:41,760 work that you do or places that you want 2446 01:35:47,390 --> 01:35:44,760 to go visit all these things uh kind of 2447 01:35:49,310 --> 01:35:47,400 start out as this uh you know almost 2448 01:35:50,629 --> 01:35:49,320 like they appear out of The Ether in 2449 01:35:52,430 --> 01:35:50,639 your in your experience but they 2450 01:35:57,350 --> 01:35:52,440 motivate you and they guide you and they 2451 01:35:59,689 --> 01:35:57,360 draw you into their presence in a way uh 2452 01:36:01,189 --> 01:35:59,699 and so it's just that these particular 2453 01:36:04,370 --> 01:36:01,199 things that we've talked about on the 2454 01:36:06,890 --> 01:36:04,380 show they stand out because not everyone 2455 01:36:08,870 --> 01:36:06,900 has those experiences we all have the 2456 01:36:10,490 --> 01:36:08,880 former but we don't all have what we 2457 01:36:12,649 --> 01:36:10,500 just talked about here but is there 2458 01:36:14,330 --> 01:36:12,659 really a distinction between them I 2459 01:36:15,590 --> 01:36:14,340 think that it's just that the ones we 2460 01:36:18,169 --> 01:36:15,600 talked about that we kind of share like 2461 01:36:20,209 --> 01:36:18,179 just really common uh but that but the 2462 01:36:21,890 --> 01:36:20,219 ones that are unique I mean yes they're 2463 01:36:23,930 --> 01:36:21,900 unique they're different but but they're 2464 01:36:25,850 --> 01:36:23,940 happening as you said TJ not in the 2465 01:36:28,790 --> 01:36:25,860 super normal not in the Paranormal but 2466 01:36:31,970 --> 01:36:28,800 in reality and so it's just they're way 2467 01:36:34,790 --> 01:36:31,980 harder for us to get get our arms around 2468 01:36:37,129 --> 01:36:34,800 box and figure out but I do think that 2469 01:36:38,930 --> 01:36:37,139 they help Define the possibility space 2470 01:36:42,350 --> 01:36:38,940 right and this is what's always been 2471 01:36:43,729 --> 01:36:42,360 true about human sort of Discovery and 2472 01:36:46,729 --> 01:36:43,739 the advancement of our knowledge like 2473 01:36:48,950 --> 01:36:46,739 things happen to us and we we start 2474 01:36:50,990 --> 01:36:48,960 asking questions about them and we start 2475 01:36:52,669 --> 01:36:51,000 forming hypotheses and we start testing 2476 01:36:55,010 --> 01:36:52,679 things and all of a sudden we the thing 2477 01:36:56,689 --> 01:36:55,020 that was completely baffling us like 2478 01:36:58,610 --> 01:36:56,699 germs for crying out loud we figured 2479 01:36:59,810 --> 01:36:58,620 what German you know germs are and here 2480 01:37:01,189 --> 01:36:59,820 we are like we're thinking like those 2481 01:37:02,750 --> 01:37:01,199 idiots back then they didn't know what 2482 01:37:04,790 --> 01:37:02,760 germs were well I mean that's where we 2483 01:37:06,830 --> 01:37:04,800 are now there are things in our reality 2484 01:37:08,930 --> 01:37:06,840 that are they're interfacing with us and 2485 01:37:10,729 --> 01:37:08,940 we're we're just given this task it's 2486 01:37:14,090 --> 01:37:10,739 almost the task of Our Generation right 2487 01:37:17,030 --> 01:37:14,100 to to push this knowledge forward in a 2488 01:37:18,470 --> 01:37:17,040 new direction to where our future humans 2489 01:37:20,629 --> 01:37:18,480 will look back and go wow those idiots 2490 01:37:22,129 --> 01:37:20,639 they didn't know about X but man they 2491 01:37:23,810 --> 01:37:22,139 they pushed us there and I'm glad that 2492 01:37:26,689 --> 01:37:23,820 they did and they're going to have their 2493 01:37:28,490 --> 01:37:26,699 own you know stuff to figure out 2494 01:37:30,110 -->

2607 01:42:03,709 --> 01:42:02,100 it's delicious and I believe them as 2608 01:42:05,390 --> 01:42:03,719 much as I can 2609 01:42:07,250 --> 01:42:05,400 um guys there's one more thing I got to 2610 01:42:09,410 --> 01:42:07,260 do before I got to get Deb in here 2611 01:42:12,350 --> 01:42:09,420 because Deb has only literally spoken 2612 01:42:14,330 --> 01:42:12,360 once during the entire pot Deb I just 2613 01:42:16,310 --> 01:42:14,340 want to ask you because I know that 2614 01:42:19,609 --> 01:42:16,320 you're very interested in this man's 2615 01:42:21,229 --> 01:42:19,619 story what comes to your mind when you 2616 01:42:23,090 --> 01:42:21,239 think about Chris Bledsoe and his 2617 01:42:25,850 --> 01:42:23,100 experiences Deb 2618 01:42:29,030 --> 01:42:25,860 you know honestly the reason I spoke to 2619 01:42:32,090 --> 01:42:29,040 Chris was the arthritis piece 2620 01:42:34,729 --> 01:42:32,100 um because I no seriously that that was 2621 01:42:36,830 --> 01:42:34,739 very interesting to me on many levels 2622 01:42:39,530 --> 01:42:36,840 not only because I actually have Saint 2623 01:42:41,149 --> 01:42:39,540 Francis as a statue sitting on my porch 2624 01:42:43,310 --> 01:42:41,159 and that was a weird thing that that got 2625 01:42:46,310 --> 01:42:43,320 brought up into the whole story about it 2626 01:42:48,950 --> 01:42:46,320 and then the fact that I have arthritis 2627 01:42:50,390 --> 01:42:48,960 so I reached out to him about that and 2628 01:42:53,209 --> 01:42:50,400 there's there's a whole component 2629 01:42:55,129 --> 01:42:53,219 related to him healing people and things 2630 01:42:57,169 --> 01:42:55,139 like that that is really intriguing to 2631 01:42:59,030 --> 01:42:57,179 me and I would like to have more 2632 01:42:59,930 --> 01:42:59,040 conversations with him about that in the 2633 01:43:02,450 --> 01:42:59,940 future 2634 01:43:04,310 --> 01:43:02,460 so the healing aspect is the most 2635 01:43:06,229 --> 01:43:04,320 interesting to you of everything that 2636 01:43:08,570 --> 01:43:06,239 you know about him yes because he's 2637 01:43:10,070 --> 01:43:08,580 actually usually at the reverse when it 2638 01:43:12,530 --> 01:43:10,080 comes to the phenomenon people are 2639 01:43:15,470 --> 01:43:12,540 getting hurt or sick Etc it's kind of 2640 01:43:16,910 --> 01:43:15,480 unusual for him it's healing things are 2641 01:43:19,609 --> 01:43:16,920 healing 2642 01:43:23,270 --> 01:43:19,619 so that's what intrigues me listen he's 2643 01:43:25,370 --> 01:43:23,280 a he he's always online like
