00:09:56,320 i recognized that that 253 00:09:59,190 --> 00:09:58,480 there was like some kind of schism you 254 00:10:00,790 --> 00:09:59,200 know 255 00:10:02,949 --> 00:10:00,800 and my mom's like 256 00:10:04,949 --> 00:10:02,959 like one of the best 257 00:10:07,590 --> 00:10:04,959 she's my mom is the sane my mom's 258 00:10:09,269 --> 00:10:07,600 incredible so nothing against my mom the 259 00:10:11,509 --> 00:10:09,279 situation i think she was you know she 260 00:10:13,269 --> 00:10:11,519 was a young mother she was like handling 261 00:10:14,630 --> 00:10:13,279 it the best she could right yeah i think 262 00:10:16,790 --> 00:10:14,640 everybody i think a lot of parents go 263 00:10:18,470 --> 00:10:16,800 through i mean i have in my baby book i 264 00:10:19,750 --> 00:10:18,480 have a thing called 265 00:10:21,030 --> 00:10:19,760 i don't know what this means but i would 266 00:10:22,389 --> 00:10:21,040 always write down apparently i would 267 00:10:23,509 --> 00:10:22,399 tell my mom 268 00:10:25,910 --> 00:10:23,519 something would happen and i would say 269 00:10:27,670 --> 00:10:25,920 the robot made me do it what the robot 270 00:10:29,430 --> 00:10:27,680 was i have no idea i don't have any 271 00:10:31,110 --> 00:10:29,440 memories of that but for people who say 272 00:10:33,030 --> 00:10:31,120 well how does jay have a memory of four 273 00:10:34,630 --> 00:10:33,040 years old and i have a memory of four 274 00:10:37,269 --> 00:10:34,640 years old being dropped off at the 275 00:10:39,670 --> 00:10:37,279 hospital for a hernia operation clear as 276 00:10:41,829 --> 00:10:39,680 day i mean clear as day i remember being 277 00:10:43,269 --> 00:10:41,839 dropped off so something sticks out 278 00:10:45,030 --> 00:10:43,279 something dramatic 279 00:10:48,230 --> 00:10:45,040 so i'm not surprised that you remember 280 00:10:51,509 --> 00:10:48,240 that um what exactly did they look like 281 00:10:53,269 --> 00:10:51,519 um it was like it was almost like 282 00:10:54,630 --> 00:10:53,279 um the best that i could describe it is 283 00:10:57,190 --> 00:10:54,640 kind of like the characters from like 284 00:10:59,350 --> 00:10:57,200 the abyss or like predator like this 285 00:11:00,389 --> 00:10:59,360 kind of like almost water droplet like 286 00:11:02,710 --> 00:11:00,399 shimmery 287 00:11:04,949 --> 00:11:02,720 like not so not even as concrete as 288 00:11:07,509 --> 00:11:04,959 those effects in those movies but 289 00:11:09,430 --> 00:11:07,519 like like a kind of like just a bite you 290 00:11:11,829 --> 00:11:09,440 know you could see a head and shoulders 291 00:11:13,430 --> 00:11:11,839 like very skinny kind of tall it seemed 292 00:11:15,269 --> 00:11:13,440 like there was kind of like light it 293 00:11:16,870 --> 00:11:15,279 almost seemed like it was composed of 294 00:11:18,069 --> 00:11:16,880 light and water but you could tell that 295 00:11:20,550 --> 00:11:18,079 there was 296 00:11:23,269 --> 00:11:20,560 it was like on this level and 297 00:11:25,350 --> 00:11:23,279 on some other layer of reality somehow i 298 00:11:27,350 --> 00:11:25,360 don't like you know i don't i don't have 299 00:11:30,150 --> 00:11:27,360 any explanation for what that is 300 00:11:32,389 --> 00:11:30,160 or what that was but but um yeah that's 301 00:11:35,030 --> 00:11:32,399 the best i could describe it and it's 302 00:11:36,790 --> 00:11:35,040 as far as you remember it was real it 303 00:11:39,750 --> 00:11:36,800 felt real 304 00:11:42,550 --> 00:11:39,760 100 yeah like i mean the 305 00:11:45,350 --> 00:11:42,560 the thing is is that like you know it 306 00:11:46,310 --> 00:11:45,360 was it was at such an age 307 00:11:52,470 --> 00:11:46,320 that 308 00:11:53,509 --> 00:11:52,480 you know over the years like i 309 00:11:55,670 --> 00:11:53,519 like 310 00:11:57,190 --> 00:11:55,680 there is validity for me in that is that 311 00:11:58,629 --> 00:11:57,200 at that age 312 00:12:01,430 --> 00:11:58,639 like i don't know if this is true for 313 00:12:03,030 --> 00:12:01,440 you but like what i catalogued from like 314 00:12:05,269 --> 00:12:03,040 my early memories from when i was a 315 00:12:08,389 --> 00:12:05,279 child are like the the total oh [\h__\h] 316 00:12:10,470 --> 00:12:08,399 moments like like like like you know 317 00:12:12,629 --> 00:12:10,480 it's like you put your hand on the stove 318 00:12:14,389 --> 00:12:12,639 or you like you fall off of something 319 00:12:17,030 --> 00:12:14,399 like you fall out of a tree whatever it 320 00:12:19,030 --> 00:12:17,040 is like like those those early things 321 00:12:21,030 --> 00:12:19,040 where it's just like don't don't your 322 00:12:22,790 --> 00:12:21,040 brains just like it flags it because 323 00:12:25,670 --> 00:12:22,800 it's like don't do that again or like 324 00:12:27,590 --> 00:12:25,680 this like danger warning whatever and 325 00:12:30,389 --> 00:12:27,600 like for whatever reason you know i like 326 00:12:32,470 --> 00:12:30,399 i'm 42 years old this is over you know 327 00:12:34,949 --> 00:12:32,480 well over 30 years ago now and it still 328 00:12:37,590 --> 00:12:34,959 is kind of like flagged in there with me 329 00:12:39,110 --> 00:12:37,600 like getting bit by a goose 330 00:12:40,949 --> 00:12:39,120 you know what i mean like stuff like 331 00:12:45,990 --> 00:12:40,959 that 332 00:12:47,110 --> 00:12:46,000 what kind of 333 00:12:51,750 --> 00:12:47,120 and 334 00:12:54,389 --> 00:12:51,760 like that fragmentary memory like clear 335 00:12:56,069 --> 00:12:54,399 as day you know and it's you know it's 336 00:12:57,829 --> 00:12:56,079 so they said basically we may not be 337 00:12:59,590 --> 00:12:57,839 able to communicate later which me i 338 00:13:01,269 --> 00:12:59,600 mean right away i think well maybe 339 00:13:02,790 --> 00:13:01,279 because we're so open at that age you 340 00:13:04,550 --> 00:13:02,800 know like you said 341 00:13:06,550 --> 00:13:04,560 it's brand new to you you don't question 342 00:13:08,150 --> 00:13:06,560 it i mean yeah it's it's obviously 343 00:13:10,150 --> 00:13:08,160 different you remember it but it's not 344 00:13:11,509 --> 00:13:10,160 like you know i've had i had experiences 345 00:13:13,269 --> 00:13:11,519 when i was younger 346 00:13:14,710 --> 00:13:13,279 like anomalous dreams that turned out to 347 00:13:16,790 --> 00:13:14,720 be true and i'm like at the time i 348 00:13:19,269 --> 00:13:16,800 didn't think anything of it until like 349 00:13:20,949 --> 00:13:19,279 10 years later i'm like oh that was 350 00:13:23,590 --> 00:13:20,959 not everybody has those or people do 351 00:13:25,110 --> 00:13:23,600 have them but it's anomalous so maybe 352 00:13:26,310 --> 00:13:25,120 that's the thinking 353 00:13:27,829 --> 00:13:26,320 as far as what they were saying 354 00:13:29,430 --> 00:13:27,839 communicating with you then until and 355 00:13:31,590 --> 00:13:29,440 they couldn't do it later 356 00:13:34,470 --> 00:13:31,600 and we're speculating 357 00:13:36,710 --> 00:13:34,480 100 and like you know i i don't have 358 00:13:39,110 --> 00:13:36,720 answers i just have really big questions 359 00:13:41,269 --> 00:13:39,120 you know and so like i don't like i i 360 00:13:43,750 --> 00:13:41,279 don't know who those beings were one 361 00:13:44,710 --> 00:13:43,760 seemed more masculine one seemed more 362 00:13:45,670 --> 00:13:44,720 feminine 363 00:13:48,150 --> 00:13:45,680 but 364 00:13:50,150 --> 00:13:48,160 you know it was such a short experience 365 00:13:51,750 --> 00:13:50,160 that and it was so long ago that it's 366 00:13:52,790 --> 00:13:51,760 hard to kind of 367 00:13:55,590 --> 00:13:52,800 like 368 00:13:57,269 --> 00:13:55,600 i i kind of resist the urge to kind of 369 00:14:01,189 --> 00:13:57,279 like 370 00:14:03,590 --> 00:14:01,199 what i mean or i have over the years but 371 00:14:06,870 --> 00:14:03,600 like i'm not i'm not 372 00:14:10,069 --> 00:14:06,880 driven to find it like i like with that 373 00:14:11,509 --> 00:14:10,079 situation it was so singular that like 374 00:14:13,750 --> 00:14:11,519 you know it's 375 00:14:16,470 --> 00:14:13,760 i probably won't know what that was 376 00:14:18,150 --> 00:14:16,480 until you know the day i die 377 00:14:19,509 --> 00:14:18,160 like at best right or something like 378 00:14:21,750 --> 00:14:19,519 that you know what i mean 379 00:14:23,110 --> 00:14:21,760 anything um did they seem familiar to 380 00:14:25,670 --> 00:14:23,120 you at all 381 00:14:27,269 --> 00:14:25,680 they did yeah but like at that but at 382 00:14:29,110 --> 00:14:27,279 that age it's like 383 00:14:30,949 --> 00:14:29,120 you know it's three like you kind of 384 00:14:33,670 --> 00:14:30,959 want to be friends with everybody right 385 00:14:36,230 --> 00:14:33,680 you know there's like and so like even 386 00:14:38,710 --> 00:14:36,240 that it like it's hard to know what that 387 00:14:41,030 --> 00:14:38,720 really was you know and i also recognize 388 00:14:43,030 --> 00:14:41,040 that for a lot of people like like we're 389 00:14:44,870 --> 00:14:43,040 starting with a story that is already a 390 00:14:46,550 --> 00:14:44,880 bridge too far and i've totally 391 00:14:48,949 --> 00:14:46,560 recognized that you know what i mean 392 00:14:51,030 --> 00:14:48,959 like most of the other story most of the 393 00:14:51,990 --> 00:14:51,040 other like situations from from my 394 00:14:53,750 --> 00:14:52,000 history 395 00:14:55,189 --> 00:14:53,760 there are you know often there are other 396 00:14:57,030 --> 00:14:55,199 people involved 397 00:14:58,389 --> 00:14:57,040 that can corroborate things there there 398 00:15:00,230 --> 00:14:58,399 are and 399 00:15:02,629 --> 00:15:00,240 are there things that'll be a little bit 400 00:15:05,269 --> 00:15:02,639 more familiar to people often you know 401 00:15:06,790 --> 00:15:05,279 within within this kind of a context and 402 00:15:09,110 --> 00:15:06,800 so i recognize it's coming from a weird 403 00:15:11,350 --> 00:15:09,120 place but like that's part of like kind 404 00:15:13,350 --> 00:15:11,360 of like the inconvenient nature of 405 00:15:16,150 --> 00:15:13,360 anomalous experience a lot of the time 406 00:15:17,670 --> 00:15:16,160 like it gets messy and and like i think 407 00:15:19,590 --> 00:15:17,680 that's one of the reasons why people can 408 00:15:20,710 --> 00:15:19,600 be like really resistant to this kind of 409 00:15:23,110 --> 00:15:20,720 stuff because 410 00:15:24,790 --> 00:15:23,120 they don't know how like sometimes they 411 00:15:26,710 --> 00:15:24,800 don't have a context and they don't know 412 00:15:30,230 --> 00:15:26,720 how far down that road 413 00:15:31,670 --> 00:15:30,240 they can go if that makes sense and so 414 00:15:33,910 --> 00:15:31,680 sometimes bridging those gaps i 415 00:15:35,350 --> 00:15:33,920 understand that that it can be it can be 416 00:15:37,030 --> 00:15:35,360 pretty far but 417 00:15:38,710 --> 00:15:37,040 you know at the same time there's often 418 00:15:40,629 --> 00:15:38,720 this situation where it's just like 419 00:15:41,990 --> 00:15:40,639 you'll talk to somebody and they're like 420 00:15:43,910 --> 00:15:42,000 they're like ah yeah nothing ever 421 00:15:45,910 --> 00:15:43,920 happened to me and they're like actually 422 00:15:46,870 --> 00:15:45,920 you know and you know there was this one 423 00:15:48,790 --> 00:15:46,880 time 424 00:15:50,949 --> 00:15:48,800 you know and it's like 425 00:15:52,389 --> 00:15:50,959 and there and like so many people 426 00:15:54,949 --> 00:15:52,399 there's like yeah there was this one 427 00:15:56,629 --> 00:15:54,959 time and it could be like yeah i i you 428 00:15:58,710 --> 00:15:56,639 know 429 00:16:00,870 --> 00:15:58,720 whether a precognitive dream whether it 430 00:16:03,030 --> 00:16:00,880 was whatever and like 431 00:16:04,790 --> 00:16:03,040 you know an orb whatever i've heard so 432 00:16:06,069 --> 00:16:04,800 many different versions of the there was 433 00:16:08,470 --> 00:16:06,079 this one time 434 00:16:10,710 --> 00:16:08,480 and i think part of it is that people 435 00:16:12,870 --> 00:16:10,720 our brains you know i mean there are so 436 00:16:14,949 --> 00:16:12,880 many there are so many angles within 437 00:16:17,110 --> 00:16:14,959 science these days where people are 438 00:16:20,230 --> 00:16:17,120 starting to recognize that like 439 00:16:22,629 --> 00:16:20,240 our whole system is built on filtering 440 00:16:25,030 --> 00:16:22,639 things out that are inconvenient you 441 00:16:27,430 --> 00:16:25,040 know what i mean like we don't see the 442 00:16:29,269 --> 00:16:27,440 full light spectrum like we don't hear 443 00:16:30,870 --> 00:16:29,279 as well as a dog does you know what i 444 00:16:34,069 --> 00:16:30,880 mean it's like there's there's so many 445 00:16:35,829 --> 00:16:34,079 filters set up to kind of excise 446 00:16:38,230 --> 00:16:35,839 whatever we don't need 447 00:16:40,230 --> 00:16:38,240 you know for survival or or thriving or 448 00:16:41,350 --> 00:16:40,240 whatever right like 449 00:16:44,870 --> 00:16:41,360 you know if we 450 00:16:46,150 --> 00:16:44,880 if if we saw the the full light spectrum 451 00:16:47,829 --> 00:16:46,160 you know maybe we would just be like 452 00:16:50,230 --> 00:16:47,839 sitting on our couch feeling like we 453 00:16:52,389 --> 00:16:50,240 were like tripping balls like 24 7. you 454 00:16:54,710 --> 00:16:52,399 know what i mean 455 00:16:56,470 --> 00:16:54,720 um and and so in that way like maybe 456 00:16:58,629 --> 00:16:56,480 that you know 457 00:17:01,590 --> 00:16:58,639 there are ways that that seems like an 458 00:17:02,470 --> 00:17:01,600 evolutionary prerogative to keep that in 459 00:17:04,630 --> 00:17:02,480 line 460 00:17:07,350 --> 00:17:04,640 but there are also situations where 461 00:17:11,750 --> 00:17:09,350 consciously or subconsciously you know 462 00:17:13,110 --> 00:17:11,760 there's often this thing with with et 463 00:17:14,870 --> 00:17:13,120 experience and stuff like that where 464 00:17:16,870 --> 00:17:14,880 it's like they wiped my memory and i 465 00:17:20,230 --> 00:17:16,880 think that there's truth to that however 466 00:17:21,909 --> 00:17:20,240 i think i i've seen examples myself 467 00:17:24,549 --> 00:17:21,919 where people 468 00:17:25,350 --> 00:17:24,559 conveniently forgot things 469 00:17:27,829 --> 00:17:25,360 um 470 00:17:31,190 --> 00:17:27,839 and it seems part of that is that the 471 00:17:35,029 --> 00:17:31,200 brain really tries to make sense 472 00:17:38,630 --> 00:17:35,039 of what we see around us it tries 473 00:17:41,270 --> 00:17:38,640 like it's bent around order right 474 00:17:42,870 --> 00:17:41,280 and so like inconvenient 475 00:17:45,750 --> 00:17:42,880 like anomalous 476 00:17:48,070 --> 00:17:45,760 problematic situations like 477 00:17:49,909 --> 00:17:48,080 like there's it's almost as if there's 478 00:17:52,310 --> 00:17:49,919 like some evolutionary level where it's 479 00:17:54,549 --> 00:17:52,320 just like filter it out filter it out 480 00:17:56,950 --> 00:17:54,559 you know what i mean no i do 481 00:17:59,029 --> 00:17:56,960 no it don't make sense um and it's funny 482 00:18:01,830 --> 00:17:59,039 because this is not exactly what you're 483 00:18:04,070 --> 00:18:01,840 talking about but in my family and and i 484 00:18:05,830 --> 00:18:04,080 don't i sometimes i forget this but my 485 00:18:07,430 --> 00:18:05,840 mom knew i was interested in this she's 486 00:18:09,350 --> 00:18:07,440 gone now but she knew i was interested 487 00:18:10,870 --> 00:18:09,360 in this and one day 488 00:18:12,549 --> 00:18:10,880 she said by the way 489 00:18:14,630 --> 00:18:12,559 i did have this one experience where i 490 00:18:17,350 --> 00:18:14,640 felt this presence in the room i was 491 00:18:19,270 --> 00:18:17,360 like you're telling me this now and i 492 00:18:20,870 --> 00:18:19,280 regret so much i never pushed her and 493 00:18:22,310 --> 00:18:20,880 got details more i don't think there 494 00:18:23,510 --> 00:18:22,320 were many details or she didn't want to 495 00:18:26,390 --> 00:18:23,520 talk about it 496 00:18:28,710 --> 00:18:26,400 but yeah it does make sense that it 497 00:18:30,549 --> 00:18:28,720 could like you said maybe they're wiping 498 00:18:32,150 --> 00:18:30,559 memories or 499 00:18:34,870 --> 00:18:32,160 there really is no need to wipe memory 500 00:18:37,909 --> 00:18:34,880 because it's such a jarring experience 501 00:18:39,110 --> 00:18:37,919 that we do it ourselves so yeah 502 00:18:41,190 --> 00:18:39,120 yeah 503 00:18:43,830 --> 00:18:41,200 and it very well could be both you know 504 00:18:46,630 --> 00:18:43,840 it could be like it could almost be 505 00:18:48,549 --> 00:18:46,640 you know it could be overlapping and and 506 00:18:50,549 --> 00:18:48,559 there could be like a convenience factor 507 00:18:53,190 --> 00:18:50,559 for them whoever they are 508 00:18:55,430 --> 00:18:53,200 in terms of like recognizing that there 509 00:18:58,230 --> 00:18:55,440 is this element within us where 510 00:18:59,990 --> 00:18:58,240 that can sometimes happen but um that 511 00:19:01,990 --> 00:19:00,000 kind of brings up that kind of brings me 512 00:19:05,110 --> 00:19:02,000 to like the next 513 00:19:07,669 --> 00:19:05,120 like major series of events in my life 514 00:19:11,190 --> 00:19:07,679 if if you want to go there um yes but 515 00:19:13,029 --> 00:19:11,200 but because that element of like of like 516 00:19:15,990 --> 00:19:13,039 conveniently forgetting things like kind 517 00:19:16,950 --> 00:19:16,000 of plays into it so 518 00:19:18,870 --> 00:19:16,960 um 519 00:19:21,270 --> 00:19:18,880 outside of that one tiny little 520 00:19:23,110 --> 00:19:21,280 experience that that one like maybe like 521 00:19:25,830 --> 00:19:23,120 45 second 522 00:19:27,270 --> 00:19:25,840 one minute long experience when i was 523 00:19:28,789 --> 00:19:27,280 that young 524 00:19:29,750 --> 00:19:28,799 um 525 00:19:32,070 --> 00:19:29,760 like 526 00:19:32,950 --> 00:19:32,080 you know flash forward to me 527 00:19:35,350 --> 00:19:32,960 at 528 00:19:38,070 --> 00:19:35,360 about six six and a half years old 529 00:19:40,710 --> 00:19:38,080 um my my parents moved from fort wayne 530 00:19:41,750 --> 00:19:40,720 indiana to mishawaka indiana huge move 531 00:19:44,549 --> 00:19:41,760 right 532 00:19:47,750 --> 00:19:44,559 and like um and so um 533 00:19:50,630 --> 00:19:47,760 but it was uh my parents were young um 534 00:19:53,270 --> 00:19:50,640 my dad worked for um an electrical power 535 00:19:55,190 --> 00:19:53,280 company and it's so we moved around a 536 00:19:56,070 --> 00:19:55,200 lot at that time because 537 00:19:57,669 --> 00:19:56,080 um 538 00:20:01,430 --> 00:19:57,679 he kept getting promoted and we'd have 539 00:20:04,070 --> 00:20:01,440 to move to a different um uh like town 540 00:20:05,510 --> 00:20:04,080 for for the company that we work for 541 00:20:07,669 --> 00:20:05,520 so um 542 00:20:11,590 --> 00:20:07,679 so there we we are in mishawaka it was 543 00:20:13,990 --> 00:20:11,600 an older home built in like 1919 and 544 00:20:16,390 --> 00:20:14,000 it was like way way bigger than the 545 00:20:18,789 --> 00:20:16,400 house in fort wayne and 546 00:20:21,270 --> 00:20:18,799 and i was kind of overwhelmed with it at 547 00:20:23,110 --> 00:20:21,280 first and you know of course like it's 548 00:20:25,029 --> 00:20:23,120 like kid brain i've gone and looked at 549 00:20:27,350 --> 00:20:25,039 it on zillow and it you know it doesn't 550 00:20:29,669 --> 00:20:27,360 seem so grand now but it sure did at 551 00:20:30,549 --> 00:20:29,679 that point you know what i mean and 552 00:20:31,669 --> 00:20:30,559 and 553 00:20:36,070 --> 00:20:31,679 so 554 00:20:38,070 --> 00:20:36,080 i um the very first night and i think

00:21:37,600 experience with people that don't even 586 00:21:43,270 --> 00:21:39,840 know each other just like through the 587 00:21:45,590 --> 00:21:43,280 history of my life which is um 588 00:21:47,750 --> 00:21:45,600 it's not totally unique you know that 589 00:21:48,789 --> 00:21:47,760 does happen um 590 00:21:50,710 --> 00:21:48,799 but um 591 00:21:51,909 --> 00:21:50,720 but it does 592 00:21:53,909 --> 00:21:51,919 it helps me 593 00:21:55,909 --> 00:21:53,919 you know what i mean in terms of like 594 00:21:56,950 --> 00:21:55,919 even from that age with the haunted 595

engineer and so all 608 00:22:27,909 --> 00:22:25,679 these textbooks all these book boxes 609 00:22:29,990 --> 00:22:27,919 from from like his old college textbooks 610 00:22:31,750 --> 00:22:30,000 and stuff like this engineering manuals 611 00:22:35,029 --> 00:22:31,760 things like this like 612 00:22:38,390 --> 00:22:35,039 they're they were used at the end of the 613 00:22:40,789 --> 00:22:38,400 moving truck to kind of pin in the 614 00:22:42,630 --> 00:22:40,799 our bedding you know like the beds you 615 00:22:45,029 --> 00:22:42,640 know mattresses so they don't 616

00:23:21,919 like late the night before had been laid 633 00:23:26,870 --> 00:23:24,240 out in like a checkerboard pattern 634 00:23:29,669 --> 00:23:26,880 like like evenly spaced 635 00:23:31,430 --> 00:23:29,679 across the basement and 636 00:23:33,669 --> 00:23:31,440 and you know of course like immediately 637 00:23:36,630 --> 00:23:33,679 as it's like is somebody messing with us 638

641 00:23:44,310 --> 00:23:42,880 the burglar just wanted to play a little 642 00:23:45,750 --> 00:23:44,320 game and yeah i heard you in the other 643 00:23:48,710 --> 00:23:45,760 interview when you guys were joking it's 644 00:23:50,710 --> 00:23:48,720 like let's break in and create a 645 00:23:51,669 --> 00:23:50,720 checkerboard pattern just to mess with 646 00:23:53,669 --> 00:23:51,679 them 647 00:23:55,430 --> 00:23:53,679 right what a weird way to so like you 648 00:23:56,710 --> 00:23:55,440 know there's there's it went back and 649 00:24:00,070 --> 00:23:56,720 forth and then 650 00:24:01,350 --> 00:24:00,080 later in the move-in process 651 00:24:03,350 --> 00:24:01,360 you know my mom didn't know what to 652 00:24:05,350 --> 00:24:03,360 think about that and but then later in 653 00:24:07,190 --> 00:24:05,360 the move-in process 654 00:24:08,630 --> 00:24:07,200 she walks in through the back door into 655 00:24:10,950 --> 00:24:08,640 the kitchen and 656 00:24:14,310 --> 00:24:10,960 the oven door is open and it's like 657 00:24:16,549 --> 00:24:14,320 turned on blazing hot and immediately 658 00:24:18,390 --> 00:24:16,559 like as she put it like her brain like 659 00:24:21,029 --> 00:24:18,400 just like flipped over immediately 660 00:24:23,830 --> 00:24:21,039 like before that she had no context she 661 00:24:25,750 --> 00:24:23,840 she had no history of ghost anything 662 00:24:28,549 --> 00:24:25,760 poltergeist anything 663 00:24:30,230 --> 00:24:28,559 and like there was like as she describes 664 00:24:32,310 --> 00:24:30,240 it there's kind of like a deep knowing 665 00:24:34,470 --> 00:24:32,320 all of a sudden where i was just like 666 00:24:36,870 --> 00:24:34,480 and she like literally said out loud 667 00:24:38,070 --> 00:24:36,880 like this is my house now and you can't 668 00:24:40,789 --> 00:24:38,080 do this 669 00:24:42,470 --> 00:24:40,799 you know and and like she just went from 670 00:24:45,110 --> 00:24:42,480 like not even 671 00:24:46,390 --> 00:24:45,120 entertaining those ideas 672 00:24:48,470 --> 00:24:46,400 to being like 673 00:24:49,669 --> 00:24:48,480 i have to declare that this is my place 674 00:24:52,470 --> 00:24:49,679 you know what i mean 675 00:24:54,390 --> 00:24:52,480 and um and that kind of like that um 676 00:24:57,029 --> 00:24:54,400 those are early experiences but that was 677 00:24:58,950 --> 00:24:57,039 a very like stuff like that was a very 678 00:24:59,750 --> 00:24:58,960 regular occurrence there 679 00:25:01,830 --> 00:24:59,760 um 680 00:25:04,230 --> 00:25:01,840 it was uh you know things would move 681 00:25:05,029 --> 00:25:04,240 around a lot um things would kind of 682 00:25:07,110 --> 00:25:05,039 like 683 00:25:09,110 --> 00:25:07,120 uh 684 00:25:10,950 --> 00:25:09,120 bowls and cups and stuff like that i'd 685 00:25:13,669 --> 00:25:10,960 be like watching cartoons and something 686 00:25:15,590 --> 00:25:13,679 would like shove over like 18 inches you 687 00:25:18,070 --> 00:25:15,600 know like just like right in front of me 688 00:25:19,430 --> 00:25:18,080 very obviously 689 00:25:21,350 --> 00:25:19,440 you're sitting there what do you do when 690 00:25:22,310 --> 00:25:21,360 that happens just just oh cool and then 691 00:25:23,990 --> 00:25:22,320 just keep 692 00:25:26,630 --> 00:25:24,000 eating your cereal 693 00:25:28,710 --> 00:25:26,640 it was it it i mean of course it bugged 694 00:25:30,470 --> 00:25:28,720 me out but like the weirdest thing was 695 00:25:32,149 --> 00:25:30,480 that like 696 00:25:33,830 --> 00:25:32,159 you know like 697 00:25:35,269 --> 00:25:33,840 there was the idea at that point there 698 00:25:37,269 --> 00:25:35,279 was kind of like the idea that there was 699 00:25:40,230 --> 00:25:37,279 a ghost around but like i hadn't seen 700 00:25:42,789 --> 00:25:40,240 that movie poltergeist right and like 701 00:25:45,029 --> 00:25:42,799 and like um and the thing was is that 702 00:25:46,789 --> 00:25:45,039 most of the context as a kid for me with 703 00:25:48,549 --> 00:25:46,799 like ghosts and stuff like that it was 704 00:25:51,269 --> 00:25:48,559 more like scooby-doo or something you 705 00:25:52,870 --> 00:25:51,279 know what i mean like some iridescent 706 00:25:56,149 --> 00:25:52,880 something that looks like a dude in a 707 00:25:58,470 --> 00:25:56,159 sheet or whatever and so like like part 708 00:26:00,870 --> 00:25:58,480 of the fear for me was not like what was 709 00:26:01,990 --> 00:26:00,880 happening in front of me but but but 710 00:26:03,990 --> 00:26:02,000 that like 711 00:26:06,870 --> 00:26:04,000 the four channels on television that 712 00:26:08,470 --> 00:26:06,880 existed back then like um like weren't 713 00:26:10,549 --> 00:26:08,480 really covering it do you know what i 714 00:26:13,750 --> 00:26:10,559 mean right or they weren't in a way that 715 00:26:16,710 --> 00:26:13,760 i that in a way that i saw so like so 716 00:26:18,870 --> 00:26:16,720 like from a cultural context like i 717 00:26:20,470 --> 00:26:18,880 couldn't square it away that's what 718 00:26:22,710 --> 00:26:20,480 freaked me out like the actual thing 719 00:26:24,870 --> 00:26:22,720 itself i was like oh that's weird 720 00:26:26,630 --> 00:26:24,880 but when you're that young like 721 00:26:28,230 --> 00:26:26,640 yeah it's scary but at the same time 722 00:26:29,430 --> 00:26:28,240 it's like 723 00:26:31,590 --> 00:26:29,440 you're still 724 00:26:33,750 --> 00:26:31,600 learning about the world around you you 725 00:26:35,590 --> 00:26:33,760 know what i mean and so it's like you 726 00:26:38,230 --> 00:26:35,600 you know when you're super young like 727 00:26:40,149 --> 00:26:38,240 you know you encounter maybe snow for 728 00:26:41,909 --> 00:26:40,159 the first time or 729 00:26:43,430 --> 00:26:41,919 you know like you ride a bike for the 730 00:26:45,510 --> 00:26:43,440 first time there's all these like new 731 00:26:47,110 --> 00:26:45,520 experiences and and you're just taking 732 00:26:48,310 --> 00:26:47,120 it in and so 733 00:26:51,269 --> 00:26:48,320 i think on 734 00:26:53,590 --> 00:26:51,279 on one level like maybe 735 00:26:56,230 --> 00:26:53,600 you know maybe that's 736 00:26:58,710 --> 00:26:56,240 the convenience of that like like that 737 00:26:59,909 --> 00:26:58,720 that happened so early 738 00:27:02,390 --> 00:26:59,919 maybe that 739 00:27:04,630 --> 00:27:02,400 maybe there's a difference there for for 740 00:27:05,669 --> 00:27:04,640 some experiencers where it's just like 741 00:27:11,029 --> 00:27:05,679 that 742 00:27:14,789 --> 00:27:11,039 it stops getting filtered out or like 743 00:27:17,110 --> 00:27:14,799 there's or there's some kind of 744 00:27:19,350 --> 00:27:17,120 the filter is wider i don't know i i 745 00:27:20,710 --> 00:27:19,360 don't know why did you have 746 00:27:22,789 --> 00:27:20,720 did you have discussions with with your 747 00:27:26,149 --> 00:27:22,799 parents about it at the time 748 00:27:28,149 --> 00:27:26,159 yeah yeah i mean a bit with my mom like 749 00:27:29,990 --> 00:27:28,159 they had bigger they had bigger issues 750 00:27:31,830 --> 00:27:30,000 though at the time like they they got 751 00:27:35,510 --> 00:27:31,840 divorced in that house 752 00:27:39,110 --> 00:27:35,520 um you know um they were having marital 753 00:27:40,789 --> 00:27:39,120 problems at the time and um 754 00:27:43,029 --> 00:27:40,799 and so and you know they were young 755 00:27:45,990 --> 00:27:43,039 parents and and there's me and there's 756 00:27:50,389 --> 00:27:46,000 like my 18 month old sister 757 00:27:53,590 --> 00:27:50,399 and so i think that you know like like 758 00:27:55,269 --> 00:27:53,600 you know amazingly weirdly like 759 00:27:57,110 --> 00:27:55,279 the poltergeist phenomena in the house 760 00:27:58,470 --> 00:27:57,120 was probably like 761 00:28:00,549 --> 00:27:58,480 you know 762 00:28:02,549 --> 00:28:00,559 maybe number five or number six on their 763 00:28:04,389 --> 00:28:02,559 list of issues for like what 764 00:28:06,549 --> 00:28:04,399 like what they felt like they were they 765 00:28:08,149 --> 00:28:06,559 were juggling at that particular moment 766 00:28:10,710 --> 00:28:08,159 which is wild to 767 00:28:12,950 --> 00:28:10,720 to consider you know yeah yeah but but 768 00:28:15,029 --> 00:28:12,960 that's how life is you know 769 00:28:17,430 --> 00:28:15,039 you know i think i think one thing it's 770 00:28:18,710 --> 00:28:17,440 it's funny sometimes when i hear when i 771 00:28:23,510 --> 00:28:18,720 when i 772 00:28:25,590 --> 00:28:23,520 almost like critical or skeptical 773 00:28:27,029 --> 00:28:25,600 rebuttals of things and people are like 774 00:28:29,510 --> 00:28:27,039 why didn't you why don't you know 775 00:28:31,669 --> 00:28:29,520 exactly the day that that happened or 776 00:28:33,990 --> 00:28:31,679 what like why don't and it's like a lot 777 00:28:35,750 --> 00:28:34,000 of times like these are situations that 778 00:28:39,350 --> 00:28:35,760 people don't recognize that a lot of 779 00:28:41,909 --> 00:28:39,360 times people want to forget these things 780 00:28:43,029 --> 00:28:41,919 they don't it's not it's not like 781 00:28:45,029 --> 00:28:43,039 you don't 782 00:28:47,350 --> 00:28:45,039 walk into a situation like that and 783 00:28:50,310 --> 00:28:47,360 automatically become like like a 784 00:28:52,710 --> 00:28:50,320 cataloging enthusiast of like these 785 00:28:54,549 --> 00:28:52,720 these like weird sometimes scary 786 00:28:55,510 --> 00:28:54,559 sometimes traumatic events you know what 787 00:28:56,389 --> 00:28:55,520 i mean 788 00:28:59,830 --> 00:28:56,399 um 789 00:29:01,430 --> 00:28:59,840 and so you know no exactly exactly 790 00:29:02,789 --> 00:29:01,440 because like i said my experiences i had 791 00:29:04,950 --> 00:29:02,799 with you know i had a couple of 792 00:29:06,389 --> 00:29:04,960 precognitive dreams when i was in like 793 00:29:09,269 --> 00:29:06,399 eighth or ninth grade i didn't write 794 00:29:11,269 --> 00:29:09,279 them down if you asked me i even have i 795 00:29:13,430 --> 00:29:11,279 even have trouble remembering exactly 796 00:29:15,430 --> 00:29:13,440 when it was when it happened 797 00:29:17,029 --> 00:29:15,440 i i dreamt that my this girl had a crush 798 00:29:18,630 --> 00:29:17,039 on that her mom died 799 00:29:20,070 --> 00:29:18,640 and the next day i go in and she was out 800 00:29:21,510 --> 00:29:20,080 and day after she comes in she goes 801 00:29:24,149 --> 00:29:21,520 where like why were you out she's like 802 00:29:26,230 --> 00:29:24,159 my mom died but at the time i didn't i 803 00:29:28,230 --> 00:29:26,240 didn't think oh my god i can't believe i 804 00:29:29,590 --> 00:29:28,240 dreamed that i didn't think of that you 805 00:29:31,110 --> 00:29:29,600 know and i didn't write it down or 806 00:29:32,950 --> 00:29:31,120 anything but the years later i'm like 807 00:29:35,430 --> 00:29:32,960 you know that wasn't that wasn't it 808 00:29:36,389 --> 00:29:35,440 really wasn't normal you know so yeah i 809 00:29:38,070 --> 00:29:36,399 can 810 00:29:42,630 --> 00:29:38,080 i understand yeah 811 00:29:44,389 --> 00:29:42,640 yeah and um and my dad like um 812 00:29:46,549 --> 00:29:44,399 and you know like 813 00:29:48,630 --> 00:29:46,559 basically you know this is again when 814 00:29:51,110 --> 00:29:48,640 i'm pretty young and so 815 00:29:53,590 --> 00:29:51,120 i think i have a lot more clarity about 816 00:29:56,470 --> 00:29:53,600 experiences that happened more recently 817 00:29:58,870 --> 00:29:56,480 and so this like like these memories 818 00:30:03,430 --> 00:29:58,880 from that age are relatively fragmentary 819 00:30:04,549 --> 00:30:03,440 and like i i don't want to kind of like 820 00:30:06,310 --> 00:30:04,559 you know 821 00:30:07,669 --> 00:30:06,320 like add too much window dressing to 822 00:30:10,070 --> 00:30:07,679 like what i can remember from 823 00:30:12,389 --> 00:30:10,080 fragmentary experiment experience but 824 00:30:15,990 --> 00:30:12,399 like my father was 825 00:30:18,630 --> 00:30:16,000 troubled but he was not 826 00:30:22,070 --> 00:30:18,640 willing to really entertain 827 00:30:25,269 --> 00:30:23,990 he was like i mean i think my dad was 828 00:30:27,510 --> 00:30:25,279 going through a lot of the time he's 829 00:30:29,830 --> 00:30:27,520 kind of like losing his grip on like the 830 00:30:31,909 --> 00:30:29,840 family dynamic like like the marriage 831 00:30:32,950 --> 00:30:31,919 was falling apart stuff like that 832 00:30:35,669 --> 00:30:32,960 so like 833 00:30:37,430 --> 00:30:35,679 you know and he was also you know an 834 00:30:39,510 --> 00:30:37,440 electrical engineer and he was not like 835 00:30:40,950 --> 00:30:39,520 a very you know 836 00:30:44,789 --> 00:30:40,960 um 837 00:31:03,190 --> 00:30:44,799 i 838 00:31:06,549 --> 00:31:03,200 um 839 00:31:08,389 --> 00:31:06,559 and it never getting figured out right 840 00:31:10,789 --> 00:31:08,399 but that's kind of at that time that was 841 00:31:12,070 --> 00:31:10,799 as far as he was willing to to 842 00:31:14,470 --> 00:31:12,080 go 843 00:31:17,269 --> 00:31:14,480 much later like when i was in my early 844 00:31:19,350 --> 00:31:17,279 30s um it was just him and me hanging 845 00:31:20,470 --> 00:31:19,360 out one night and you know 846 00:31:24,149 --> 00:31:20,480 and it was 847 00:31:26,149 --> 00:31:24,159 brief thing but he kind of turned to me 848 00:31:26,870 --> 00:31:26,159 and was like you know like i was wrong 849 00:31:30,310 --> 00:31:26,880 to 850 00:31:32,549 --> 00:31:30,320 not 851 00:31:33,830 --> 00:31:32,559 i was wrong to to deny the stuff that 852 00:31:35,430 --> 00:31:33,840 was happening there 853 00:31:36,710 --> 00:31:35,440 you know like i should like i should 854 00:31:38,710 --> 00:31:36,720 have listened more 855 00:31:40,630 --> 00:31:38,720 i should have like 856 00:31:42,149 --> 00:31:40,640 and and he didn't go into a lot of 857 00:31:43,990 --> 00:31:42,159 detail and it's just like a couple 858 00:31:46,070 --> 00:31:44,000 sentences and 859 00:31:47,830 --> 00:31:46,080 that was the most that i ever got it out 860 00:31:50,230 --> 00:31:47,840 of him about it 861 00:31:51,669 --> 00:31:50,240 to this day my mom's much more willing 862 00:31:56,310 --> 00:31:51,679 to to 863 00:31:58,470 --> 00:31:56,320 about it but it wasn't you know it was 864 00:32:00,230 --> 00:31:58,480 it was that there was also like 865 00:32:03,909 --> 00:32:00,240 weird shadows would appear in the house 866 00:32:05,430 --> 00:32:03,919 sometimes like along the walls that 867 00:32:06,710 --> 00:32:05,440 um 868 00:32:07,590 --> 00:32:06,720 that were 869 00:32:09,350 --> 00:32:07,600 uh 870 00:32:11,110 --> 00:32:09,360 like what people might term as like 871 00:32:18,310 --> 00:32:11,120 shadow beings or something like that 872 00:32:22,149 --> 00:32:20,070 kind of disturbingly 873 00:32:27,269 --> 00:32:22,159 like elongated forms that would just 874 00:32:32,789 --> 00:32:29,750 i'm not sure if my mom saw those but i 875 00:32:35,350 --> 00:32:32,799 like you'd have to ask her um i did you 876 00:32:37,830 --> 00:32:35,360 know one thing that my mom does 877 00:32:40,149 --> 00:32:37,840 one thing that my mom like filtered out 878 00:32:41,909 --> 00:32:40,159 and then she recalled even just in the 879 00:32:42,789 --> 00:32:41,919 last couple years i was like mom but 880 00:32:44,549 --> 00:32:42,799 like i 881 00:32:46,149 --> 00:32:44,559 you remember things moving around more 882 00:32:47,990 --> 00:32:46,159 on the tables and stuff and she was like 883 00:32:49,669 --> 00:32:48,000 not a lot and i was like this is 884 00:32:52,070 --> 00:32:49,679 something that happened like 885 00:32:54,230 --> 00:32:52,080 every week around like it seemed like it 886 00:32:56,870 --> 00:32:54,240 happened you know every week around me 887 00:32:59,269 --> 00:32:56,880 and she was like actually you know what 888 00:33:01,990 --> 00:32:59,279 i don't know why i 889 00:33:04,789 --> 00:33:02,000 didn't remember this before but 890 00:33:06,630 --> 00:33:04,799 yeah i remember like like 891 00:33:08,549 --> 00:33:06,640 notable times where i'd reach for the 892 00:33:09,750 --> 00:33:08,559 car keys and they would shoot across the 893 00:33:10,470 --> 00:33:09,760 table 894 00:33:16,710 --> 00:33:10,480 like 895 00:33:18,470 --> 00:33:16,720 didn't i remember that 896 00:33:19,669 --> 00:33:18,480 like what was that about you know what i 897 00:33:20,710 --> 00:33:19,679 mean 898 00:33:21,909 --> 00:33:20,720 and 899 00:33:22,950 --> 00:33:21,919 so 900 00:33:25,430 --> 00:33:22,960 um 901 00:33:27,110 --> 00:33:25,440 yeah so i mean she even she allows that 902 00:33:28,389 --> 00:33:27,120 there's that there are probably things 903 00:33:31,590 --> 00:33:28,399 that like 904 00:33:33,909 --> 00:33:31,600 she didn't want to be kind of um or like 905 00:33:34,710 --> 00:33:33,919 on some level maybe subconsciously where 906 00:33:39,029 --> 00:33:34,720 where 907 00:33:41,350 --> 00:33:39,039 some of it might even come back later 908 00:33:42,950

like to be completely honest with you 921 00:34:07,509 --> 00:34:05,039 like this has been a long process um 922 00:34:09,030 --> 00:34:07,519 you know i'm 42 years old even like five 923 00:34:11,990 --> 00:34:09,040 years ago like 924 00:34:14,230 --> 00:34:12,000 like i had a really hard time engaging 925 00:34:16,230 --> 00:34:14,240 with these topics and like 926 00:34:18,310 --> 00:34:16,240 even just seeing like 927 00:34:21,909 --> 00:34:18,320 you know like 928 00:34:24,869 --> 00:34:21,919 uh ufology related programming on tv 929 00:34:26,790 --> 00:34:24,879 would like would kind of like i i would 930 00:34:28,310 --> 00:34:26,800 avoid it you know flip right through it 931 00:34:29,669 --> 00:34:28,320 like it was like 932 00:34:32,710 --> 00:34:29,679 i had 933 00:34:36,550 --> 00:34:32,720 a time in my 20s when like i was kind of 934 00:34:37,430 --> 00:34:36,560 at the height of of regular experience 935 00:34:41,510 --> 00:34:37,440 and 936 00:34:42,550 --> 00:34:41,520 phase where i was researching as much as 937 00:34:44,230 --> 00:34:42,560 i could 938 00:34:46,389 --> 00:34:44,240 and then and then i went through a 939 00:34:48,869 --> 00:34:46,399 period of a lot of years where like i 940 00:34:49,750 --> 00:34:48,879 tried to shut it off any way that i 941 00:34:50,629 --> 00:34:49,760 could 942 00:34:55,750 --> 00:34:50,639 and 943 00:34:57,829 --> 00:34:55,760 like 944 00:34:59,589 --> 00:34:57,839 each of those stages through my 20s and 945 00:35:02,069 --> 00:34:59,599 30s where i was trying to engage with it 946 00:35:05,270 --> 00:35:02,079 and i was trying to pull away from it um 947 00:35:06,630 --> 00:35:05,280 neither worked at the time you know like 948 00:35:10,470 --> 00:35:06,640 and 949 00:35:13,030 --> 00:35:10,480 it became a process of of 950 00:35:15,430 --> 00:35:13,040 honestly i think like the biggest thing 951 00:35:16,870 --> 00:35:15,440 for me um 952 00:35:19,670 --> 00:35:16,880 was 953 00:35:23,030 --> 00:35:19,680 um meditation actually 954 00:35:25,829 --> 00:35:23,040 like um like i started meditating about 955 00:35:29,109 --> 00:35:25,839 five and a half six years ago or so 956 00:35:31,829 --> 00:35:29,119 and um and being able to kind of like 957 00:35:34,630 --> 00:35:31,839 like just kind of zero out my brain 958 00:35:35,510 --> 00:35:34,640 in the morning and or at night 959 00:35:37,910 --> 00:35:35,520 um 960 00:35:39,829 --> 00:35:37,920 it really did a lot for me any specific 961 00:35:40,630 --> 00:35:39,839 type of meditation 962 00:35:44,470 --> 00:35:40,640 um 963 00:35:46,550 --> 00:35:44,480 uh well uh a couple but like i mean the 964 00:35:48,710 --> 00:35:46,560 thing that really like 965 00:35:51,030 --> 00:35:48,720 worked at first is ju is really the 966 00:35:51,910 --> 00:35:51,040 zeroing out like the zen like like kind 967 00:35:55,510 --> 00:35:51,920 of 968 00:35:56,710 --> 00:35:55,520 where it's just like you really just 969 00:35:59,990 --> 00:35:56,720 kind of like 970 00:36:02,790 --> 00:36:00,000 focus on your breath and 971 00:36:05,510 --> 00:36:02,800 don't envision anything like not even 972 00:36:07,270 --> 00:36:05,520 necessarily a mantra just like just any 973 00:36:09,670 --> 00:36:07,280 time like a thought starts to kind of 974 00:36:12,150 --> 00:36:09,680 bubble up we just kind of like try to 975 00:36:14,310 --> 00:36:12,160 acknowledge that it happened and like 976 00:36:16,630 --> 00:36:14,320 and like get it to go away and kind of 977 00:36:17,910 --> 00:36:16,640 like get back to zero 978 00:36:19,589 --> 00:36:17,920 that was like 979 00:36:21,190 --> 00:36:19,599 i mean i've i've done other forms of 980 00:36:23,190 --> 00:36:21,200 meditation but that that was really 981 00:36:25,430 --> 00:36:23,200 helpful in terms of like 982 00:36:27,589 --> 00:36:25,440 um 983 00:36:28,790 --> 00:36:27,599 really my sanity to be honest with you 984 00:36:30,870 --> 00:36:28,800 like like 985 00:36:33,270 --> 00:36:30,880 and and and 986 00:36:35,030 --> 00:36:33,280 and being able to start to process 987 00:36:36,069 --> 00:36:35,040 things on a different way 988 00:36:39,430 --> 00:36:36,079 um 989 00:36:41,430 --> 00:36:39,440 that and 990 00:36:43,750 --> 00:36:41,440 you know like over the course of the 991 00:36:46,150 --> 00:36:43,760 last couple years i mean i i wouldn't be 992 00:36:48,069 --> 00:36:46,160 able to be here with you right now even 993 00:36:50,150 --> 00:36:48,079 two years ago this would have been like 994 00:36:52,069 --> 00:36:50,160 absolutely impossible for me to do even 995 00:36:54,550 --> 00:36:52,079 a year ago this would have been 996 00:36:55,750 --> 00:36:54,560 impossible for me to do i think when did 997 00:36:57,030 --> 00:36:55,760 you first go 998 00:36:58,870 --> 00:36:57,040 go public 999 00:36:59,910 --> 00:36:58,880 telling your story 1000 00:37:04,230 --> 00:36:59,920 friday 1001 00:37:06,630 --> 00:37:04,240 so that was like yeah 1002 00:37:08,150 --> 00:37:06,640 yeah and so like like literally like i 1003 00:37:10,069 --> 00:37:08,160 mean you know i co-founded the 1004 00:37:11,910 --> 00:37:10,079 experiencer group with stuart davis and 1005 00:37:12,950 --> 00:37:11,920 kirsten blackburn and and part of the 1006 00:37:14,870 --> 00:37:12,960 whole 1007 00:37:16,710 --> 00:37:14,880 the structure there is that like like 1008 00:37:19,270 --> 00:37:16,720 experiencers can get together in a 1009 00:37:20,950 --> 00:37:19,280 private situation a private member site 1010 00:37:23,510 --> 00:37:20,960 they can compare notes they can talk 1011 00:37:26,710 --> 00:37:23,520 like you know whatever and and it can be 1012 00:37:28,550 --> 00:37:26,720 private and like and like part and like 1013 00:37:29,349 --> 00:37:28,560 part of the motivation there is that 1014 00:37:34,550 --> 00:37:29,359 like 1015 00:37:37,349 --> 00:37:34,560 think a lot of experiencers needed that 1016 00:37:40,310 --> 00:37:37,359 and it didn't exist and like you know 1017 00:37:42,630 --> 00:37:40,320 like i needed that in my 20s and it 1018 00:37:45,750 --> 00:37:42,640 didn't happen like eventually it took a 1019 00:37:48,390 --> 00:37:45,760 long time but i figured like okay well i 1020 00:37:49,589 --> 00:37:48,400 get it like like if like if we're going 1021 00:37:51,430 --> 00:37:49,599 to be the people to do it then we're 1022 00:37:54,550 --> 00:37:51,440 going to be the people to do it and it's 1023 00:37:57,510 --> 00:37:54,560 not like the only anonymous or quiet or 1024 00:37:59,670 --> 00:37:57,520 private experience or group but but it's 1025 00:38:01,750 --> 00:37:59,680 you know we there's 1026 00:38:03,510 --> 00:38:01,760 there's a lot on that site that that 1027 00:38:06,150 --> 00:38:03,520 people are finding helpful and i 1028 00:38:07,670 --> 00:38:06,160 appreciate that but like i if it wasn't 1029 00:38:08,470 --> 00:38:07,680 also for 1030 00:38:11,670 --> 00:38:08,480 for 1031 00:38:13,270 --> 00:38:11,680 working with other experiencers and 1032 00:38:15,109 --> 00:38:13,280 support groups and things like that i 1033 00:38:17,030 -->

in march 1239 00:45:54,470 --> 00:45:51,280 and so i think that he was he was kind 1240 00:45:56,150 --> 00:45:54,480 of like and very much in that headspace 1241 00:45:58,950 --> 00:45:56,160 of of 1242 00:46:01,030 --> 00:45:58,960 like he had he had had access to to john 1243 00:46:03,829 --> 00:46:01,040 max archive 1244 00:46:05,349 --> 00:46:03,839 like of of experiencer cases and things 1245 00:46:06,230 --> 00:46:05,359 like that and he'd been working with 1246 00:46:08,390 --> 00:46:06,240 that 1247 00:46:11,109 --> 00:46:08,400 for 16 years 1248 00:46:13,349 --> 00:46:11,119 16 years he'd been working on that 1249 00:46:15,109 --> 00:46:13,359 and so like you know and that's that's 1250 00:46:17,109 --> 00:46:15,119 how like as i mentioned the other day 1251 00:46:19,589 --> 00:46:17,119 that's how he and leslie kane got 1252 00:46:22,550 --> 00:46:19,599 together initially because leslie kane 1253 00:46:24,230 --> 00:46:22,560 was was uh but hopkins companion for 1254 00:46:26,230 --> 00:46:24,240 right for a number of years 1255 00:46:28,790 --> 00:46:26,240 until bud died and 1256 00:46:30,630 --> 00:46:28,800 and so you know they like 1257 00:46:32,470 --> 00:46:30,640 you know she she had reported for the 1258 00:46:35,589 --> 00:46:32,480 boston globe he had reported for the new 1259 00:46:37,829 --> 00:46:35,599 york times and they got together over 1260 00:46:39,829 --> 00:46:37,839 you know like literally abduction 1261 00:46:42,710 --> 00:46:39,839 experiencer cases you know that was like 1262 00:46:44,550 --> 00:46:42,720 part of the like a huge part of them 1263 00:46:46,630 --> 00:46:44,560 initially coming together 1264 00:46:49,510 --> 00:46:46,640 and people don't recognize that and like 1265 00:46:50,870 --> 00:46:49,520 of course and it makes sense that that 1266 00:46:53,109 --> 00:46:50,880 that would be something that you would 1267 00:46:55,190 --> 00:46:53,119 kind of like be quiet about because 1268 00:46:56,390 --> 00:46:55,200 you know like 1269 00:46:57,670 --> 00:46:56,400 because of of 1270 00:47:00,069 --> 00:46:57,680 like 1271 00:47:02,630 --> 00:47:00,079 the slow methodical 1272 00:47:03,829 --> 00:47:02,640 thoughtful way that they that they have 1273 00:47:05,349 --> 00:47:03,839 tried to 1274 00:47:11,349 --> 00:47:05,359 to 1275 00:47:13,589 --> 00:47:11,359 out and legitimized and acknowledged by 1276 00:47:15,349 --> 00:47:13,599 like our government and you know 1277 00:47:17,270 --> 00:47:15,359 other folks and things like that 1278 00:47:20,549 --> 00:47:17,280 so i get it you know what i mean but 1279 00:47:22,549 --> 00:47:20,559 it's but it's an important wrinkle it's 1280 00:47:23,510 --> 00:47:22,559 like for people to know 1281 00:47:25,510 --> 00:47:23,520 um 1282 00:47:26,230 --> 00:47:25,520 in a contextual framework and i'm glad 1283 00:47:27,430 --> 00:47:26,240 that 1284 00:47:30,069 --> 00:47:27,440 ralph is 1285 00:47:32,150 --> 00:47:30,079 able to

people that were particularly 1368 00:50:23,270 --> 00:50:17,520 um 1369 00:50:26,230 --> 00:50:23,280 uh associates of ralph's work and really 1370 00:50:29,990 --> 00:50:26,240 liked this particular

know it's unfortunate that 1380 00:51:07,670 --> 00:51:02,480 that 1381 00:51:09,510 --> 00:51:07,680 such big questions huge questions you 1382 00:51:12,309 --> 00:51:09,520 know like like 1383 00:51:14,390 --> 00:51:12,319 like is any like are are there other you 1384 00:51:17,589 --> 00:51:14,400 know advanced intelligences 1385 00:51:18,470 --> 00:51:17,599 like like around us so like are

00:51:39,109 --> 00:51:37,280 like the biggest questions that in in my 1393 00:51:40,390 --> 00:51:39,119 mind anyway and this is obviously 1394 00:51:42,069 --> 00:51:40,400 because my history and things like this 1395 00:51:44,230 --> 00:51:42,079 but like these are some of the biggest 1396 00:51:45,910 --> 00:51:44,240 questions you could ask and just the 1397 00:51:47,030 --> 00:51:45,920 idea that like a couple people could be 1398 00:51:49,349 --> 00:51:47,040 like yeah 1399 00:51:52,470 --> 00:51:49,359 i'm skeptical of that it's like how like 1400 00:51:54,390 --> 00:51:52,480 you're skeptical of like 1401 00:51:56,150 --> 00:51:54,400 you know like i mean like what you're 1402 00:51:58,950 --> 00:51:56,160 saying with leslie's work it's like 1403 00:51:59,829 --> 00:51:58,960 what's her other big thread like like 1404 00:52:03,270 --> 00:51:59,839 like 1405 00:52:05,430 --> 00:52:03,280 the survival of consciousness right and 1406 00:52:07,030 --> 00:52:05,440 it's like these are some of the biggest 1407 00:52:08,790 --> 00:52:07,040 questions that you can contend with and 1408 00:52:10,230 --> 00:52:08,800 i recognize that involved 1409 00:52:12,390 --> 00:52:10,240 involves risk 1410 00:52:13,829 --> 00:52:12,400 and it involves like some of the 1411 00:52:15,750 --> 00:52:13,839 scariest 1412 00:52:17,190 --> 00:52:15,760 issues that people could think about 1413 00:52:18,390 --> 00:52:17,200 like mortality 1414 00:52:20,150 --> 00:52:18,400 and like whether 1415 00:52:22,710 --> 00:52:20,160 and whether something else is like 1416 00:52:25,190 --> 00:52:22,720 smarter or more advanced or 1417 00:52:27,109 --> 00:52:25,200 you know has some kind of advantage or 1418 00:52:28,870 --> 00:52:27,119 whatever you know like if you're not the 1419 00:52:31,349 --> 00:52:28,880 top of the food chain or however you 1420 00:52:33,829 --> 00:52:31,359 want to frame it you know like people 1421 00:52:36,230 --> 00:52:33,839 tend to contextualize things that way or 1422 00:52:37,510 --> 00:52:36,240 be like you know threat narratives all 1423 00:52:40,470 --> 00:52:37,520 that kind of stuff 1424 00:52:42,390 --> 00:52:40,480 and and so like i get why people would 1425 00:52:44,790 --> 00:52:42,400 want i get why people would want to 1426 00:52:48,230 --> 00:52:44,800 avoid these topics sometimes but at the 1427 00:52:51,030 --> 00:52:48,240 same time it doesn't mean that it's not 1428 00:52:53,349 --> 00:52:51,040 it it like we know that it's real you 1429 00:52:55,910 --> 00:52:53,359 know what i mean like we know that like 1430 00:52:58,069 --> 00:52:55,920 we know that ufos exist we have those 1431 00:53:00,790 --> 00:52:58,079 cockpit videos we have had things 1432 00:53:02,950 --> 00:53:00,800 acknowledged we you know and like 1433 00:53:04,790 --> 00:53:02,960 you know i'm preaching to the choir here 1434 00:53:07,670 --> 00:53:04,800 like with you joe but like you know we 1435 00:53:10,390 -->

01:01:53,359 poltergeist phenomenon is always 1677 01:01:57,510 --> 01:01:56,319 always attached to ufo encounters it's 1678 01:01:59,430 --> 01:01:57,520 something that's not very well 1679 01:02:02,390 --> 01:01:59,440 understood or recognized by many in 1680 01:02:04,390 --> 01:02:02,400 ufology every time you have ufos you're 1681 01:02:05,510 --> 01:02:04,400 going to have

because there are 1685 01:02:11,829 --> 01:02:10,319 people that have who have had encounters 1686 01:02:13,109 --> 01:02:11,839 who said i don't have polar guys 1687 01:02:14,789 --> 01:02:13,119

01:07:50,549 --> 01:07:48,640 like the slats to the laundry room 1839 01:07:51,430 --> 01:07:50,559 behind the the steps going to the 1840 01:07:53,510 --> 01:07:51,440 kitchen 1841 01:07:55,829 --> 01:07:53,520 and 1842 01:07:58,950 --> 01:07:55,839 super weird detail like i'm going up the 1843 01:08:01,430 --> 01:07:58,960 steps i i and i see movement in the 1844 01:08:03,910 --> 01:08:01,440 laundry room and i look in and one of 1845 01:08:05,750 --> 01:08:03,920 those same types of beings i don't know 1846 01:08:06,470 --> 01:08:05,760 if it was the same one as one of those 1847 01:08:09,589 --> 01:08:06,480 two 1848 01:08:13,109 --> 01:08:09,599 but there's a being it was crouched in 1849 01:08:15,670 --> 01:08:13,119 front of the the washing machine 1850 01:08:18,309 --> 01:08:15,680 and it was like going through 1851 01:08:19,829 --> 01:08:18,319 um like a pile of dirty clothes that 1852 01:08:21,590 --> 01:08:19,839 were sitting in front of the washing 1853 01:08:24,390 --> 01:08:21,600 machine 1854 01:08:25,349 --> 01:08:24,400 and like and like it was just in like i 1855 01:08:30,870 --> 01:08:25,359 like 1856 01:08:33,110 --> 01:08:30,880 right 1857 01:08:35,189 --> 01:08:33,120 and then after that like 1858 01:08:37,030 --> 01:08:35,199 every time i went up and down those 1859 01:08:39,669 --> 01:08:37,040 steps i ran 1860 01:08:41,669 --> 01:08:39,679 up and down the steps as fast as i could 1861 01:08:43,829 --> 01:08:41,679 you know with child brain you know what 1862 01:08:45,829 --> 01:08:43,839 i mean just the association of like 1863 01:08:49,030 --> 01:08:45,839 having seen that like 1864 01:08:52,229 --> 01:08:49,040 partially i think because like 1865 01:08:54,149 --> 01:08:52,239 the partly the fear was like it's back 1866 01:08:56,789 --> 01:08:54,159 but partially but also that it 1867 01:08:57,990 --> 01:08:56,799 corroborated that earlier experience you 1868 01:08:59,269 --> 01:08:58,000 know what i mean 1869 01:09:01,829 --> 01:08:59,279 because like 1870 01:09:03,669 --> 01:09:01,839 like i i was i had been wondering about 1871 01:09:04,470 --> 01:09:03,679 it and then just being like 1872 01:09:06,870 --> 01:09:04,480 like 1873 01:09:08,789 --> 01:09:06,880 the idea that that would be that 1874 01:09:09,990 --> 01:09:08,799 like that wasn't just a one-time only 1875 01:09:13,030 --> 01:09:10,000 occurrence 1876 01:09:15,110 --> 01:09:13,040 um was deeply freaky right 1877 01:09:16,470 --> 01:09:15,120 um yeah it's and it's like if if you're 1878 01:09:18,470 --> 01:09:16,480 gonna make up with people like he's 1879 01:09:20,149 --> 01:09:18,480 making up a story like if you're gonna 1880 01:09:22,550 --> 01:09:20,159 make up a story you're not gonna make up 1881 01:09:25,189 --> 01:09:22,560 a story about 1882 01:09:26,870 --> 01:09:25,199 aliens obsessed with dirty laundry it's 1883 01:09:28,789 --> 01:09:26,880 the weirdest thing 1884 01:09:31,669 --> 01:09:28,799 yeah it's bizarre and like i don't i 1885 01:09:33,749 --> 01:09:31,679 don't know and like i have no idea like 1886 01:09:35,829 --> 01:09:33,759 like is there was there some 1887 01:09:37,990 --> 01:09:35,839 you know like i can speculate like what 1888 01:09:39,990 --> 01:09:38,000 was that was that did they accidentally 1889 01:09:41,669 --> 01:09:40,000 leave some piece of evidence and like 1890 01:09:43,669 --> 01:09:41,679 somebody had to go retrieve it i have no 1891 01:09:45,510 --> 01:09:43,679 idea rod one of the rods was in the 1892 01:09:53,590 --> 01:09:45,520 pocket and they're like they're looking 1893 01:09:57,910 --> 01:09:55,830 yeah yeah i mean i'm just i'm yeah i'm 1894 01:09:59,590 --> 01:09:57,920 amazed like just thinking about like 1895 01:10:00,630 --> 01:09:59,600 that argument you know they get up there 1896 01:10:03,830 --> 01:10:00,640 and they're like 1897 01:10:04,950 --> 01:10:03,840 seriously again with the rod like 1898 01:10:06,950 --> 01:10:04,960 we're not going to give you a rod 1899 01:10:08,229 --> 01:10:06,960 anymore 1900 01:10:09,590 --> 01:10:08,239 you hear stories that they put you know 1901 01:10:11,030 --> 01:10:09,600 they make mistakes like they put people 1902 01:10:12,950 --> 01:10:11,040 back in the wrong spot and they're wrong 1903 01:10:14,470 --> 01:10:12,960 clothes the clothes run backwards so 1904 01:10:16,470 --> 01:10:14,480 they're not beyond 1905 01:10:18,310 --> 01:10:16,480 making mistakes or things like that but 1906 01:10:20,149 --> 01:10:18,320 maybe there's a home obsession with the 1907 01:10:21,590 --> 01:10:20,159 clothing i don't know yeah well and 1908 01:10:23,270 --> 01:10:21,600 there is and there is like a weird thing 1909 01:10:24,630 --> 01:10:23,280 where it's like the like the short grays 1910 01:10:27,430 --> 01:10:24,640 anyway the tall grays are smarter the 1911 01:10:29,910 --> 01:10:27,440 shorter grays like they're really like 1912 01:10:31,430 --> 01:10:29,920 the one of the weirdest things is like 1913 01:10:35,270 --> 01:10:31,440 totally with what you're saying is that 1914 01:10:37,510 --> 01:10:35,280 like they don't seem to be 1915 01:10:39,990 --> 01:10:37,520 they seem to have like kind of like 1916 01:10:41,590 --> 01:10:40,000 logic trees that it's like this is what 1917 01:10:43,270 --> 01:10:41,600 you're supposed to be doing like you 1918 01:10:46,310 --> 01:10:43,280 know kind of like a job description and 1919 01:10:49,189 --> 01:10:46,320 it's like when things deviate from like 1920 01:10:50,470 --> 01:10:49,199 like the norm for them they get totally 1921 01:10:51,990 --> 01:10:50,480 thrown off 1922 01:10:54,790 --> 01:10:52,000 like you know what i mean like these 1923 01:10:56,950 --> 01:10:54,800 like like these short they are not 1924 01:10:59,189 --> 01:10:56,960 gifted improvisers you know what i mean 1925 01:11:00,870 --> 01:10:59,199 like there's like like for whatever 1926 01:11:02,390 --> 01:11:00,880 reason and i think that partially plays 1927 01:11:04,470 --> 01:11:02,400 into why some people are like are they 1928 01:11:06,390 --> 01:11:04,480 drones are they ai 1929 01:11:08,310 --> 01:11:06,400 because i was thinking because because 1930 01:11:11,510 --> 01:11:08,320 like there's this kind of like does not 1931 01:11:14,709 --> 01:11:11,520 compute angle that comes into play when 1932 01:11:16,630 --> 01:11:14,719 if you like and it's it's one strategy 1933 01:11:18,070 --> 01:11:16,640 that some experiencers talk about like 1934 01:11:21,270 --> 01:11:18,080 privately is like you know if you're in 1935 01:11:24,149 --> 01:11:21,280 a situation like one way to defuse or 1936 01:11:27,189 --> 01:11:24,159 shift like one of these things is like 1937 01:11:29,189 --> 01:11:27,199 you know it like it would be if you're 1938 01:11:32,070 --> 01:11:29,199 conscious to do something that doesn't 1939 01:11:34,310 --> 01:11:32,080 make any sense basically or like kind of 1940 01:11:36,310 --> 01:11:34,320 re-route into something that that they 1941 01:11:38,149 --> 01:11:36,320 just wouldn't anticipate 1942 01:11:40,630 --> 01:11:38,159 and like that's and it's like an it 1943 01:11:42,630 --> 01:11:40,640 would be an amazingly hard thing to do 1944 01:11:45,030 --> 01:11:42,640 in the moment but it's 1945 01:11:47,990 --> 01:11:45,040 but it but it's th those kinds of 1946 01:11:51,430 --> 01:11:48,000 situations when people 1947 01:11:54,470 --> 01:11:51,440 do end up sometimes with 1948 01:11:57,030 --> 01:11:54,480 at the very least like more of of kind 1949 01:11:59,030 --> 01:11:57,040 of a corroboratory element like you know 1950 01:12:01,270 --> 01:11:59,040 waking up in their clothes or or you 1951 01:12:04,390 --> 01:12:01,280 know like like something being out of 1952 01:12:05,830 --> 01:12:04,400 place or misaligned or things like that 1953 01:12:06,709 --> 01:12:05,840 um yeah 1954 01:12:07,510 --> 01:12:06,719 anyway 1955 01:12:11,189 --> 01:12:07,520 yeah 1956 01:12:15,030 --> 01:12:13,030 did you tell did you tell your parents 1957 01:12:19,430 --> 01:12:15,040 about that one 1958 01:12:23,510 --> 01:12:19,440 i'd like i did not tell my parents i did 1959 01:12:27,350 --> 01:12:23,520 not i did not i like i told 1960 01:12:29,830 --> 01:12:27,360 later i told my mom that i'd seen 1961 01:12:31,990 --> 01:12:29,840 like a weird being 1962 01:12:34,470 --> 01:12:32,000 but um 1963 01:12:39,990 --> 01:12:34,480 i didn't 1964 01:12:42,630 --> 01:12:40,000 i think even in trying to tell it to her 1965 01:12:44,950 --> 01:12:42,640 like i was kind of trying to play it off 1966 01:12:46,470 --> 01:12:44,960 um i like and i can't remember exactly 1967 01:12:48,550 --> 01:12:46,480 how that conversation went down but it 1968 01:12:50,709 --> 01:12:48,560 did not happen immediately and like it 1969 01:12:52,390 --> 01:12:50,719 was definitely not like 1970 01:12:53,830 --> 01:12:52,400 like we've got aliens in the house or 1971 01:12:56,470 --> 01:12:53,840 something like that like that was not 1972 01:12:59,510 --> 01:12:56,480 that was not it like i like 1973 01:13:02,550 --> 01:12:59,520 i i do remember an element of reportage 1974 01:13:05,110 --> 01:13:02,560 but like came later while we still lived 1975 01:13:06,790 --> 01:13:05,120 in that house like um 1976 01:13:09,030 --> 01:13:06,800 i saw something in the i think i said 1977 01:13:10,630 --> 01:13:09,040 something like i saw something weird in 1978 01:13:13,830 --> 01:13:10,640 the laundry room 1979 01:13:17,430 --> 01:13:13,840 but you know it didn't and my mom 1980 01:13:20,070 --> 01:13:17,440 is able to recall that that happened but 1981 01:13:22,229 --> 01:13:20,080 you know i think you know like again 1982 01:13:27,590 --> 01:13:22,239 like 1983 01:13:29,430 --> 01:13:27,600 if you're it's a 10 year old kid 1984 01:13:31,510 --> 01:13:29,440 telling his mom that they saw something 1985 01:13:32,950 --> 01:13:31,520 weird in the laundry room like 1986 01:13:36,070 --> 01:13:32,960 you know there's a very kind of 1987 01:13:38,149 --> 01:13:36,080 practical context of that from from pro 1988 01:13:40,550 --> 01:13:38,159 from her perspective probably where it's 1989 01:13:42,630 --> 01:13:40,560 like you know kids are creative or they 1990 01:13:44,790 --> 01:13:42,640 think they see something or you know the 1991 01:13:47,110 --> 01:13:44,800 imaginative mindset of a child and i 1992 01:13:48,630 --> 01:13:47,120 totally get that you know what i mean so 1993 01:13:50,550 --> 01:13:48,640 so i don't like 1994 01:13:51,669 --> 01:13:50,560 you know later on down the line she was 1995 01:13:53,990 --> 01:13:51,679 like i'm 1996 01:13:56,630 --> 01:13:54,000 like there was an element where 1997 01:13:58,149 --> 01:13:56,640 you know the sentiment was like like i'm 1998 01:14:01,030 --> 01:13:58,159 sorry i didn't latch onto that and i was 1999 01:14:04,950 --> 01:14:01,040 like well why would you how like like i 2000 01:14:07,030 --> 01:14:04,960 i get it like like it it doesn't 2001 01:14:09,750 --> 01:14:07,040 like um you know and this is also in 2002 01:14:11,910 --> 01:14:09,760 like the late 80s and 2003 01:14:14,630 --> 01:14:11,920 it hadn't kind of like those kinds of 2004 01:14:17,590 --> 01:14:14,640 stories hadn't reached the fever pitch 2005 01:14:19,910 --> 01:14:17,600 or in in terms of like 2006 01:14:22,390 --> 01:14:19,920 you know rural indiana that that they 2007 01:14:24,070 --> 01:14:22,400 would even five or ten years later with 2008 01:14:25,750 --> 01:14:24,080 things like the x-files or whatever you 2009 01:14:29,270 --> 01:14:25,760 know what i mean like 2010 01:14:31,270 --> 01:14:29,280 and so i like were they were they booked 2011 01:14:33,030 --> 01:14:31,280 out yet at that point at all 2012 01:14:34,390 --> 01:14:33,040 i mean like you know and at your age 2013 01:14:36,550 --> 01:14:34,400 obviously you're not gonna you're i'm 2014 01:14:39,189 --> 01:14:36,560 like yeah i mean nothing about books 2015 01:14:41,590 --> 01:14:39,199 about it yeah i mean communion came out 2016 01:14:44,550 --> 01:14:41,600 and i mean i think community came out in 2017 01:14:46,229 --> 01:14:44,560 87 the book and and 2018 01:14:48,630 --> 01:14:46,239 and so this would have been like you 2019 01:14:50,870 --> 01:14:48,640 know this would have been like 2020 01:14:53,750 --> 01:14:50,880 i think this would have been like 88 2021 01:14:56,950 --> 01:14:53,760 maybe or 87 itself because if i was 9 or 2022 01:14:58,630 --> 01:14:56,960 10 i was born in 1978 so you know it was 2023 01:15:00,390 --> 01:14:58,640 like right around there when this would 2024 01:15:02,470 --> 01:15:00,400 have happened but 2025 01:15:04,870 --> 01:15:02,480 of course i wouldn't have like 2026 01:15:06,790 --> 01:15:04,880 i like i don't 2027 01:15:09,350 --> 01:15:06,800 like we certainly didn't have that book 2028 01:15:11,910 --> 01:15:09,360 in the house like i didn't 2029 01:15:15,110 --> 01:15:11,920 i don't remember having any awareness of 2030 01:15:18,149 --> 01:15:15,120 of him at that time you know like my 2031 01:15:20,390 --> 01:15:18,159 tv watching was pretty limited to like 2032 01:15:22,550 --> 01:15:20,400 saturday morning cartoons and like you 2033 01:15:23,590 --> 01:15:22,560 know stuff like that at that point 2034 01:15:26,470 --> 01:15:23,600 um 2035 01:15:30,390 --> 01:15:26,480 so i like 2036 01:15:31,830 --> 01:15:30,400 you know had i ever seen like 2037 01:15:33,910 --> 01:15:31,840 i don't think that i'd seen close 2038 01:15:36,070 --> 01:15:33,920 encounters at that point like maybe i'd 2039 01:15:37,590 --> 01:15:36,080 seen a depiction of something like that 2040 01:15:40,149 --> 01:15:37,600 right but like 2041 01:15:43,030 --> 01:15:40,159 but i don't know and it certainly didn't 2042 01:15:45,030 --> 01:15:43,040 look exactly like the beings that i saw 2043 01:15:46,470 --> 01:15:45,040 you know what i mean like 2044 01:15:47,510 --> 01:15:46,480 so 2045 01:15:49,030 --> 01:15:47,520 you know there's always that kind of 2046 01:15:50,790 --> 01:15:49,040 chicken in the egg problem where people 2047 01:15:52,790 --> 01:15:50,800 are gonna be like well you probably saw 2048 01:15:54,550 --> 01:15:52,800 something like that in popular culture 2049 01:15:56,470 --> 01:15:54,560 and at that moment it was like really 2050 01:15:58,070 --> 01:15:56,480 kind of like right on the line you know 2051 01:15:59,510 --> 01:15:58,080 what i mean 2052 01:16:00,790 --> 01:15:59,520 so right 2053 01:16:02,950 --> 01:16:00,800 yeah so 2054 01:16:04,310 --> 01:16:02,960 what was your next experience 2055 01:16:05,430 --> 01:16:04,320 okay um 2056 01:16:09,430 --> 01:16:05,440 so 2057 01:16:10,630 --> 01:16:09,440 i uh 2058 01:16:11,830 --> 01:16:10,640 i was at my 2059 01:16:16,229 --> 01:16:11,840 my uh 2060 01:16:17,189 --> 01:16:16,239 grandparents house in ohio and um 2061 01:16:18,830 --> 01:16:17,199 and 2062 01:16:21,590 --> 01:16:18,840 i was 2063 01:16:24,630 --> 01:16:21,600 upstairs and 2064 01:16:26,149 --> 01:16:24,640 my my mom and my stepdad and my 2065 01:16:27,910 --> 01:16:26,159 grandparents 2066 01:16:30,070 --> 01:16:27,920 and one of my aunts i can't remember 2067 01:16:31,510 --> 01:16:30,080 which one were in the living room and 2068 01:16:32,790 --> 01:16:31,520 they were talking like after dinner or 2069 01:16:36,229 --> 01:16:32,800 something like that and i was upstairs 2070 01:16:38,390 --> 01:16:36,239 like playing with toys and um 2071 01:16:40,470 --> 01:16:38,400 this is a really again like a really 2072 01:16:43,590 --> 01:16:40,480 weird situation i 2073 01:16:45,830 --> 01:16:43,600 um i saw 2074 01:16:47,830 --> 01:16:45,840 like there were two like like spare 2075 01:16:50,149 --> 01:16:47,840 bedrooms one like used to be my mom's 2076 01:16:51,830 --> 01:16:50,159 bedroom one used to be my aunt's bedroom 2077 01:16:53,110 --> 01:16:51,840 and there's like a hallway and so i was 2078 01:16:53,990 --> 01:16:53,120 in the one room 2079 01:16:59,270 --> 01:16:54,000 and 2080 01:17:01,510 --> 01:16:59,280 positioned in such a way that i could 2081 01:17:03,270 --> 01:17:01,520 see into the other room i look into the 2082 01:17:04,149 --> 01:17:03,280 other room and like this 2083 01:17:05,189 --> 01:17:04,159 weird 2084 01:17:07,830 --> 01:17:05,199 portal 2085 01:17:10,709 --> 01:17:07,840 opens up in the other room 2086 01:17:13,110 --> 01:17:10,719 and this strange 2087 01:17:16,630 --> 01:17:13,120 like tallish being 2088 01:17:20,470 --> 01:17:16,640 that had kind of like a fuzzed out face 2089 01:17:23,189 --> 01:17:20,480 comes through the this portal and like 2090 01:17:24,630 --> 01:17:23,199 it comes like straight for me 2091 01:17:26,070 --> 01:17:24,640 um 2092 01:17:27,990 --> 01:17:26,080 i don't know like 2093 01:17:30,709 --> 01:17:28,000 my first guess would be that it was a 2094 01:17:32,550 --> 01:17:30,719 tall gray but i'm not sure 2095 01:17:34,149 --> 01:17:32,560 fuzzed out face i don't know what was up 2096 01:17:36,229 --> 01:17:34,159 with the fuzzed out face 2097 01:17:37,669 --> 01:17:36,239 it was almost as if there's like 2098 01:17:41,830 --> 01:17:37,679 like 2099 01:17:44,630 --> 01:17:41,840 masking 2100 01:17:46,470 --> 01:17:44,640 technology over the face i don't know i 2101 01:17:50,070 --> 01:17:46,480 don't know how or why 2102 01:17:52,229 --> 01:17:50,080 um but it was like that weird 2103 01:17:54,390 --> 01:17:52,239 besides the you know besides the face 2104 01:17:55,910 --> 01:17:54,400 was everything else black because right 2105 01:17:57,430 --> 01:17:55,920 you know i i think 2106 01:17:59,189 --> 01:17:57,440 cause i know lackin 2107 01:18:00,870 --> 01:17:59,199 in my mind i start thinking well maybe 2108 01:18:02,630 --> 01:18:00,880 it was something that was being rendered 2109 01:18:04,470 --> 01:18:02,640 in the face you know all the black was 2110 01:18:05,750 --> 01:18:04,480 easily rendered but the face was not 2111 01:18:07,189 --> 01:18:05,760 rendered so it was just kind of like 2112 01:18:09,910 --> 01:18:07,199 incomplete 2113 01:18:11,510 --> 01:18:09,920 total speculation yeah that's possible i 2114 01:18:13,350 --> 01:18:11,520 mean there's it's possible that it was 2115 01:18:14,310 --> 01:18:13,360 some kind of that there was some kind of 2116 01:18:29,510 --> 01:18:14,320 like 2117 01:18:31,350 --> 01:18:29,520 some kind of portaling device so it 2118 01:18:32,310 --> 01:18:31,360 you know clearly something that that's 2119 01:18:33,270 --> 01:18:32,320 like 2120 01:18:36,070 --> 01:18:33,280 so 2121 01:18:39,270 --> 01:18:36,080 you know as as science fiction writers 2122 01:18:41,590 --> 01:18:39,280 and people often quote you know like 2123 01:18:44,470 --> 01:18:41,600 sufficiently advanced technology will 2124 01:18:46,709 --> 01:18:44,480 appear as if it was magic right and like 2125 01:18:48,630 --> 01:18:46,719 clearly portal technology would would 2126 01:18:50,070 --> 01:18:48,640 fit into that kind of a framework so 2127 01:18:51,030 --> 01:18:50,080 whatever it was 2128 01:18:52,550 --> 01:18:51,040 so 2129 01:18:54,950 --> 01:18:52,560 walk it comes out of this like weird 2130 01:18:56,950 --> 01:18:54,960 portal starts kind of tearing right for 2131 01:18:59,189 --> 01:18:56,960 me i like 2132 01:19:02,550 --> 01:18:59,199 i run for the stairs 2133 01:19:03,910 --> 01:19:02,560 i start i get down about half the stairs 2134 01:19:04,870 --> 01:19:03,920 and then 2135 01:19:06,870 --> 01:19:04,880 um 2136 01:19:08,870 --> 01:19:06,880 there was like a weird time dilation 2137 01:19:11,350 --> 01:19:08,880 effect like it seemed it felt like 2138 01:19:12,470 --> 01:19:11,360 everything started to slow down 2139 01:19:14,709 --> 01:19:12,480 um 2140 01:19:17,430 --> 01:19:14,719 and it felt like i was like moving 2141 01:19:19,510 --> 01:19:17,440 through molasses somehow like i'd been 2142 01:19:20,950 --> 01:19:19,520 running like full tilt down the stairs 2143 01:19:21,669 --> 01:19:20,960 to try to get 2144 01:19:24,630 --> 01:19:21,679 to 2145 01:19:26,790 --> 01:19:24,640 like my family in the living room right 2146 01:19:27,640 --> 01:19:26,800 and um and all of a sudden it was just 2147 01:19:29,189 --> 01:19:27,650 like 2148 01:19:30,229 --> 01:19:29,199 [Music] 2149 01:19:31,110 --> 01:19:30,239 and 2150 01:19:32,709 --> 01:19:31,120 um 2151 01:19:34,709 --> 01:19:32,719 and then 2152 01:19:37,110 --> 01:19:34,719 things were very slow and it was almost 2153 01:19:38,709 --> 01:19:37,120 as if i was kind of like inert 2154 01:19:40,470 --> 01:19:38,719 and like my last 2155 01:19:43,590 --> 01:19:40,480 memory from that is 2156 01:19:45,189 --> 01:19:43,600 being taken out the front door 2157 01:19:47,510 --> 01:19:45,199 that was right next to this living room 2158 01:19:49,030 --> 01:19:47,520 and looking into the living room and my 2159 01:19:50,790 --> 01:19:49,040 family that we're all sitting there 2160 01:19:53,669 --> 01:19:50,800 having a conversation in the living room 2161 01:19:55,030 --> 01:19:53,679 it was all as if they had all been like 2162 01:19:56,790 --> 01:19:55,040 turned off 2163 01:19:58,630 --> 01:19:56,800 like i looked in there and a couple of 2164 01:20:00,229 --> 01:19:58,640 my family members like had their heads 2165 01:20:01,030 --> 01:20:00,239 back like in the chairs that they were 2166 01:20:03,110 --> 01:20:01,040 in 2167 01:20:05,910 --> 01:20:03,120 and a couple of them were like we're 2168 01:20:08,070 --> 01:20:05,920 like that as if as if they were all 2169 01:20:09,350 --> 01:20:08,080 rendered unconscious 2170 01:20:11,910 --> 01:20:09,360 which was like 2171 01:20:15,030 --> 01:20:11,920 like even more disturbing 2172 01:20:16,310 --> 01:20:15,040 than being itself um 2173 01:20:17,110 --> 01:20:16,320 um so 2174 01:20:18,709 --> 01:20:17,120 so 2175 01:20:21,189 --> 01:20:18,719 you know that that would be the next 2176 01:20:23,110 --> 01:20:21,199 memory that i that i remember the next 2177 01:20:24,709 --> 01:20:23,120 after that was let me just stop you one 2178 01:20:26,550 --> 01:20:24,719 second jay so what did the portal look 2179 01:20:29,590 --> 01:20:26,560 like specifically as much as you can 2180 01:20:31,030 --> 01:20:29,600 remember sure um yeah like 2181 01:20:32,470 --> 01:20:31,040 that was um 2182 01:20:39,189 --> 01:20:32,480 it was 2183 01:20:41,830 --> 01:20:39,199 and um as i recall and and again this is 2184 01:20:42,950 --> 01:20:41,840 like 30 years ago but like 2185 01:20:49,750 --> 01:20:42,960 i 2186 01:20:55,830 --> 01:20:49,760 and 2187 01:20:58,390 --> 01:20:55,840 through it 2188 01:21:01,669 --> 01:20:58,400 but i don't really remember the elements 2189 01:21:02,470 --> 01:21:01,679 that were through it if that makes sense 2190 01:21:03,270 --> 01:21:02,480 um 2191 01:21:07,910 --> 01:21:03,280 and 2192 01:21:11,350 --> 01:21:07,920 reach the floor 2193 01:21:14,390 --> 01:21:11,360 so like yes and like it was maybe like 2194 01:21:17,110 --> 01:21:14,400 six or eight feet into that room and 2195 01:21:18,950 --> 01:21:17,120 i would say that it was like maybe 2196 01:21:20,229 --> 01:21:18,960 six and a half feet tall i mean maybe 2197 01:21:21,590 --> 01:21:20,239 six feet tall 2198 01:21:24,550 --> 01:21:21,600 or something like that and maybe like 2199 01:21:26,070 --> 01:21:24,560 six inches like off the floor 2200 01:21:28,229 --> 01:21:26,080 and maybe 2201 01:21:30,470 --> 01:21:28,239 uh 2202 01:21:33,030 --> 01:21:30,480 maybe three feet wide or something like 2203 01:21:36,070 --> 01:21:33,040 that but again kind of like an elongated 2204 01:21:37,990 --> 01:21:36,080 egg shape almost kind of like that 2205 01:21:40,390 --> 01:21:38,000 fuzzy edges 2206 01:21:42,629 --> 01:21:40,400 i have in my family i have a cousin who 2207 01:21:45,270 --> 01:21:42,639 had um 2208 01:21:47,110 --> 01:21:45,280 it was her and her husband 2209 01:21:48,470 --> 01:21:47,120 and all of a sudden this i guess it was 2210 01:21:52,790 --> 01:21:48,480 like a 2211 01:21:56,229 --> 01:21:52,800 the ceiling down like that and then a 2212 01:21:57,750 --> 01:21:56,239 being stuck its arm out and in her head 2213 01:21:59,510 --> 01:21:57,760 with her husband in her head she just 2214 01:22:01,270 --> 01:21:59,520 said i don't want to see this and it 2215 01:22:03,430 --> 01:22:01,280 stuck his arm back in and then just 2216 01:22:05,030 --> 01:22:03,440 disappeared um then we have pulled we 2217 01:22:07,270 --> 01:22:05,040 have skinwalker ranch where they 2218 01:22:08,950 --> 01:22:07,280 apparently saw a portal open and you 2219 01:22:10,950 --> 01:22:08,960 want to get even more controversial it 2220 01:22:12,870 --> 01:22:10,960 was a big foot like creature that came 2221 01:22:14,709 --> 01:22:12,880 out of it skin walker also had polar 2222 01:22:15,990 --> 01:22:14,719 guys activity so it's like and we've 2223 01:22:17,990 --> 01:22:16,000 talked about and i heard you talk about 2224 01:22:20,870 --> 01:22:18,000 how this might all be connected which we 2225 01:22:22,390 --> 01:22:20,880 can talk about later sure but moving on 2226 01:22:24,470 --> 01:22:22,400 and they took it out your front took you 2227 01:22:25,750 --> 01:22:24,480 out the front door is another odd detail 2228 01:22:27,350 --> 01:22:25,760 it's like they turn off the whole 2229 01:22:28,709 --> 01:22:27,360 neighborhood 2230 01:22:30,709 --> 01:22:28,719 super weird 2231 01:22:33,030 --> 01:22:30,719 well and at the same time like i had 2232 01:22:35,110 --> 01:22:33,040 this weird sense as it was as if time 2233 01:22:36,310 --> 01:22:35,120 had slowed down 2234 01:22:38,870 --> 01:22:36,320 and like 2235 01:22:40,310 --> 01:22:38,880 you know again it it gets into that 2236 01:22:42,470 --> 01:22:40,320 thing where it's just like 2237 01:22:44,310 --> 01:22:42,480 is that just completely subjective was 2238 01:22:46,709 --> 01:22:44,320 that some kind of like 2239 01:22:48,229 --> 01:22:46,719 like sorry for the sirens new jersey but 2240 01:23:01,990 --> 01:22:48,239 like 2241 01:23:03,590 --> 01:23:02,000 were just making me drowsy is that why 2242 01:23:06,229 --> 01:23:03,600 time seemed slow 2243 01:23:08,070 --> 01:23:06,239 but like something along those lines 2244 01:23:11,189 --> 01:23:08,080 like it seemed to be kind of like tied 2245 01:23:13,430 --> 01:23:11,199 into why it wouldn't be a heart like why 2246 01:23:15,750 --> 01:23:13,440 walking out the front door 2247 01:23:18,390 --> 01:23:15,760 uh maybe wouldn't be a problem 2248 01:23:20,950 --> 01:23:18,400 and i don't i don't know and like maybe 2249 01:23:23,510 --> 01:23:20,960 it's also possible that it's just like a 2250 01:23:25,110 --> 01:23:23,520 very superior form of surveillance where 2251 01:23:27,110 --> 01:23:25,120 it's just like they really just mapped 2252 01:23:28,709 --> 01:23:27,120 it out and they can see 2253 01:23:30,390 --> 01:23:28,719 all 80 people that would have been on 2254 01:23:32,229 --> 01:23:30,400 that block and none of them were looking 2255 01:23:34,870 --> 01:23:32,239 at the same or i don't i don't you know 2256 01:23:36,470 --> 01:23:34,880 i have no idea you know 2257 01:23:37,830 --> 01:23:36,480 um no yeah 2258 01:23:39,990 --> 01:23:37,840 yeah 2259 01:23:42,470 --> 01:23:40,000 so um did you want to go on to like the 2260 01:23:44,229 --> 01:23:42,480 next event or like yeah if anybody has 2261 01:23:45,910 --> 01:23:44,239 any questions up until this point i was 2262 01:23:47,350 --> 01:23:45,920 gonna go at the end 2263 01:23:49,270 --> 01:23:47,360 um but 2264 01:23:51,590 --> 01:23:49,280 i don't see anything jumping out and the 2265 01:23:53,430 --> 01:23:51,600 reason i okay the super chat ones jump 2266 01:23:55,590 --> 01:23:53,440 out because i'm blind and i need to get 2267 01:23:56,950 --> 01:23:55,600 glasses um 2268 01:23:58,870 --> 01:23:56,960 but yeah we could just 2269 01:24:00,149 --> 01:23:58,880 quickly just you know 2270 01:24:01,510 --> 01:24:00,159 i know you've thought about it i've 2271 01:24:03,350 --> 01:24:01,520 thought about and i don't know if it's 2272 01:24:05,110 --> 01:24:03,360 the answer that all of this is connected 2273 01:24:07,270 --> 01:24:05,120 and i know people there are people that 2274 01:24:08,950 --> 01:24:07,280 insist it's all the same thing it's one 2275 01:24:10,470 --> 01:24:08,960 phenomenon 2276 01:24:12,229 --> 01:24:10,480 and i'm not so sure i don't know i mean 2277 01:24:15,270 --> 01:24:12,239 i'm not so sure about any of this but i 2278 01:24:17,750 --> 01:24:15,280 know you have thoughts i i'm i'm open to 2279 01:24:19,830 --> 01:24:17,760 it but i don't know 2280 01:24:22,310 --> 01:24:19,840 i definitely i mean i definitely have a 2281 01:24:23,669 --> 01:24:22,320 lot i i've thought about it a lot and 2282 01:24:25,189 --> 01:24:23,679 you know i 2283 01:24:27,110 --> 01:24:25,199 i think that 2284 01:24:34,790 --> 01:24:27,120 we 2285 01:24:38,149 --> 01:24:34,800 very rich diverse 2286 01:24:39,669 --> 01:24:38,159 cosmos you know and that there are 2287 01:24:42,790 --> 01:24:39,679 possibly 2288 01:24:45,830 --> 01:24:42,800 a lot of different 2289 01:24:48,229 --> 01:24:45,840 types of life that we just 2290 01:24:49,030 --> 01:24:48,239 have like haven't quite acknowledged you 2291 01:24:50,950 --> 01:24:49,040 know 2292 01:24:53,830 --> 01:24:50,960 i mean and 2293 01:24:58,470 --> 01:24:53,840 there's often this kind of like 2294 01:25:00,070 --> 01:24:58,480 there's often this gap where where 2295 01:25:02,070 --> 01:25:00,080 it takes a while for something to get on 2296 01:25:04,229 --> 01:25:02,080 the record and maybe it's just a like 2297 01:25:05,750 --> 01:25:04,239 you know it's it's detection it's like 2298 01:25:07,350 --> 01:25:05,760 how much evidence do you have you know 2299 01:25:08,870 --> 01:25:07,360 what i mean like 2300 01:25:20,870 --> 01:25:08,880 like 2301 01:25:23,270 --> 01:25:20,880 all great panda the same thing 2302 01:25:25,750 --> 01:25:23,280 yeah and so you know and it's just and 2303 01:25:29,510 --> 01:25:25,760 it's and why was that you know but like 2304 01:25:32,390 --> 01:25:29,520 partially because like you know like 2305 01:25:34,709 --> 01:25:32,400 probably a bunch of you know european 2306 01:25:36,629 --> 01:25:34,719 people scientists at that time hadn't 2307 01:25:38,070 --> 01:25:36,639 run into one yet you know what i mean 2308 01:25:39,590 --> 01:25:38,080 and so like 2309 01:25:42,870 --> 01:25:39,600 it was lore 2310 01:25:45,110 --> 01:25:42,880 and and so you know i and as our 2311 01:25:47,030 --> 01:25:45,120 technology is increasing to the point of 2312 01:25:49,590 --> 01:25:47,040 like being able to 2313 01:25:51,910 --> 01:25:49,600 like have advanced forms of detection 2314 01:25:53,669 --> 01:25:51,920 and like being able to kind of like 2315 01:25:56,550 --> 01:25:53,679 you know like see 2316 01:25:58,390 --> 01:25:56,560 you know more of the light spectrum see 2317 01:26:01,910 --> 01:25:58,400 you know like 2318 01:26:07,430 --> 01:26:05,430 radiation or or like like like um you 2319 01:26:09,110 --> 01:26:07,440 know gravitational waves or how like 2320 01:26:11,669 --> 01:26:09,120 however you frame it i'm not a scientist 2321 01:26:13,189 --> 01:26:11,679 but you know like like the rf spectrum 2322 01:26:15,430 --> 01:26:13,199 like all the stuff you know like we're 2323 01:26:18,550 --> 01:26:15,440 expanding our abilities in terms of like 2324 01:26:20,229 --> 01:26:18,560 what we can see or or sense 2325 01:26:23,270 --> 01:26:20,239 and um 2326 01:26:25,590 --> 01:26:23,280 and but science in some ways doesn't 2327 01:26:26,550 --> 01:26:25,600 seem like it's caught up with like 2328 01:26:37,270 --> 01:26:26,560 like 2329 01:26:38,390 --> 01:26:37,280 know 2330 01:26:41,430 --> 01:26:38,400 years and years and years of 2331 01:26:44,149 --> 01:26:41,440 evolutionary development like has 2332 01:26:46,470 --> 01:26:44,159 gifted us with the ability to sense 2333 01:26:48,629 --> 01:26:46,480 danger you know what i mean like if we 2334 01:26:52,229 --> 01:26:48,639 can sense any like it seems like we have 2335 01:26:53,270 --> 01:26:52,239 an extraordinary capability of of 2336 01:26:58,870 --> 01:26:53,280 of 2337 01:27:00,390 --> 01:26:58,880 like a problematic situation or 2338 01:27:02,629 --> 01:27:00,400 something like that and it seems to kind 2339 01:27:04,870 --> 01:27:02,639 of like maybe trigger something where 2340 01:27:06,070 --> 01:27:04,880 where all of a sudden like some of these 2341 01:27:07,990 --> 01:27:06,080 other 2342 01:27:10,470 --> 01:27:08,000 things that are usually filtered out 2343 01:27:12,629 --> 01:27:10,480 like like can come into play or 2344 01:27:14,790 --> 01:27:12,639 something like that if that makes sense 2345 01:27:16,709 --> 01:27:14,800 no it does and i don't know if 2346 01:27:18,229 --> 01:27:16,719 if this one experience you had you me 2347 01:27:19,590 --> 01:27:18,239 you skipped over it's later but you 2348 01:27:22,870 --> 01:27:19,600 talked about 2349 01:27:24,229 --> 01:27:22,880 seeing another boy playing with your 2350 01:27:26,870 --> 01:27:24,239 toys 2351 01:27:28,470 --> 01:27:26,880 and it just made me think of exactly 2352 01:27:30,550 --> 01:27:28,480 what you're talking about there's 2353 01:27:32,390 --> 01:27:30,560 another world that's right beyond our 2354 01:27:34,629 --> 01:27:32,400 ability to sense in the electromagnetic 2355 01:27:35,430 --> 01:27:34,639 spectrum and sometimes the worlds cross 2356 01:27:37,669 --> 01:27:35,440 over 2357 01:27:40,149 --> 01:27:37,679 and it's really it's like 2358 01:27:42,310 --> 01:27:40,159 you know it's a really 2359 01:27:43,910 --> 01:27:42,320 interesting story i mean tell the story 2360 01:27:45,590 --> 01:27:43,920 about i don't know how old you were when 2361 01:27:46,950 --> 01:27:45,600 you had when you started yeah that's 2362 01:27:49,110 --> 01:27:46,960 that's back in that haunted house in 2363 01:27:51,189 --> 01:27:49,120 mishawaka and like what haunted house 2364 01:27:53,110 --> 01:27:51,199 like i i kind of like playfully term it 2365 01:27:53,910 --> 01:27:53,120 like that but you know it was right so 2366 01:28:01,590 --> 01:27:53,920 like 2367 01:28:02,870 --> 01:28:01,600 i um and i woke up one night late and um 2368 01:28:05,910 --> 01:28:02,880 and 2369 01:28:08,950 --> 01:28:05,920 my like a couple of my like toy cars or 2370 01:28:10,870 --> 01:28:08,960 something were out on the floor right 2371 01:28:13,110 --> 01:28:10,880 and like 2372 01:28:16,390 --> 01:28:13,120 and i already knew that that was like 2373 01:28:18,950 --> 01:28:16,400 not right because like i cleaned them up 2374 01:28:21,750 --> 01:28:18,960 i like and so 2375 01:28:23,750 --> 01:28:21,760 and then i look and then there's this 2376 01:28:25,530 --> 01:28:23,760 there's like an apparition 2377 01:28:26,709 --> 01:28:25,540 of a boy 2378 01:28:28,790 --> 01:28:26,719 [Music] 2379 01:28:31,270 --> 01:28:28,800 that was about my age 2380 01:28:33,750 --> 01:28:31,280 and it was like you and as he was 2381 01:28:36,390 --> 01:28:33,760 pushing the cars across so like 2382 01:28:37,830 --> 01:28:36,400 he was kind of like you know like 2383 01:28:39,669 --> 01:28:37,840 not 2384 01:28:41,270 --> 01:28:39,679 i could kind of see through him but i 2385 01:28:43,110 --> 01:28:41,280 could but like he definitely had like 2386 01:28:45,750 --> 01:28:43,120 details and stuff like this and there's 2387 01:28:48,229 --> 01:28:45,760 like a kid right and like 2388 01:28:52,390 --> 01:28:50,950 i was about six and he looked to be 2389 01:28:54,229 --> 01:28:52,400 about six 2390 01:28:55,430 --> 01:28:54,239 okay and 2391 01:28:56,950 --> 01:28:55,440 um 2392 01:28:58,229 --> 01:28:56,960 and 2393 01:29:00,310 --> 01:28:58,239 there's 2394 01:29:01,830 --> 01:29:00,320 and like the car moves across the floor 2395 01:29:03,669 --> 01:29:01,840 like he's like touching it and like the 2396 01:29:05,910 --> 01:29:03,679 car like the little toy car like a 2397 01:29:09,030 --> 01:29:05,920 little hot wheels or whatever like 2398 01:29:11,510 --> 01:29:09,040 and i look at him and then he senses me 2399 01:29:14,470 --> 01:29:11,520 and looks up and he 2400 01:29:16,550 --> 01:29:14,480 and we make eye contact right 2401 01:29:19,110 --> 01:29:16,560 and like and he starts 2402 01:29:20,870 --> 01:29:19,120 and he opens his mouth 2403 01:29:23,830 --> 01:29:20,880 and it's almost like it was totally 2404 01:29:25,510 --> 01:29:23,840 unintelligible it was almost like like a 2405 01:29:27,430 --> 01:29:25,520 it's almost like an am radio station 2406 01:29:29,110 --> 01:29:27,440 that was just out of phase 2407 01:29:31,910 --> 01:29:29,120 and so it just like 2408 01:29:32,790 --> 01:29:31,920 sounded like weird static almost like i 2409 01:29:35,830 --> 01:29:32,800 couldn't 2410 01:29:38,550 --> 01:29:35,840 he was clearly trying to speak to me 2411 01:29:41,270 --> 01:29:38,560 and but like it wasn't telepathy it was 2412 01:29:43,110 --> 01:29:41,280 like it was the way that like 2413 01:29:46,390 --> 01:29:43,120 the way that i heard it the way that i 2414 01:29:49,750 --> 01:29:46,400 perceived it was almost like 2415 01:29:51,030 --> 01:29:49,760 like a really disturbing kind of static 2416 01:29:53,350 --> 01:29:51,040 or like 2417 01:29:55,110 --> 01:29:53,360 like out of like out of like out of 2418 01:29:56,709 --> 01:29:55,120 phase radius out of phase that's exactly 2419 01:29:57,910 --> 01:29:56,719 what i'm thinking something out of just 2420 01:29:59,030 --> 01:29:57,920 out of phase 2421 01:30:01,669 --> 01:29:59,040 yeah 2422 01:30:02,790 --> 01:30:01,679 um and um what it makes me think of jay 2423 01:30:04,310 --> 01:30:02,800 it makes me think of the movie the 2424 01:30:07,510 --> 01:30:04,320 others 2425 01:30:10,629 --> 01:30:07,520 yeah yeah you know yeah absolutely and 2426 01:30:12,790 --> 01:30:10,639 like you know and like again like like a 2427 01:30:15,270 --> 01:30:12,800 lot of this comes into speculation but 2428 01:30:17,030 --> 01:30:15,280 it really does seem it you know like 2429 01:30:18,390 --> 01:30:17,040 from all these situations like the 2430 01:30:20,470 --> 01:30:18,400 portaling 2431 01:30:22,390 --> 01:30:20,480 you know and like it's hard not to draw 2432 01:30:24,709 --> 01:30:22,400 connections and and some of these 2433 01:30:27,669 --> 01:30:24,719 definitely seem like different 2434 01:30:31,110 --> 01:30:27,679 classes of beings or class or different 2435 01:30:33,030 --> 01:30:31,120 types of of entities or intelligences 2436 01:30:36,390 --> 01:30:33,040 but at the same time 2437 01:30:39,189 --> 01:30:36,400 a lot of it still points to this 2438 01:30:41,030 --> 01:30:39,199 to the possibility that 2439 01:30:45,270 --> 01:30:41,040 or maybe the probability 2440 01:30:46,950 --> 01:30:45,280 that there are these other kind of like 2441 01:30:49,669 --> 01:30:46,960 almost like different radio stations 2442 01:30:51,270 --> 01:30:49,679 that are just adjacent to us that like 2443 01:30:53,510 --> 01:30:51,280 that have like a whole 2444 01:30:55,990 --> 01:30:53,520 ecosystem on right or something like 2445 01:30:59,189 --> 01:30:56,000 that and like i don't understand it like 2446 01:31:00,550 --> 01:30:59,199 i have no idea like how or why but you 2447 01:31:02,390 --> 01:31:00,560 know like 2448 01:31:05,110 --> 01:31:02,400 it seems as if it's 2449 01:31:07,750 --> 01:31:05,120 it like from what i hear from like the 2450 01:31:09,990 --> 01:31:07,760 the bit of research i've done it it's it 2451 01:31:12,070 --> 01:31:10,000 sounds like it's theoretically possible 2452 01:31:13,830 --> 01:31:12,080 like i like i'm not i'm not an expert in 2453 01:31:15,350 --> 01:31:13,840 that kind of a field but 2454 01:31:16,470 --> 01:31:15,360 you know like 2455 01:31:25,830 --> 01:31:16,480 it 2456 01:31:27,830 --> 01:31:25,840 seems to be targeted and kind of placed 2457 01:31:30,149 --> 01:31:27,840 almost out of phase with our normal 2458 01:31:32,550 --> 01:31:30,159 day-to-day reality or people see 2459 01:31:34,470 --> 01:31:32,560 something that the where where 2460 01:31:35,750 --> 01:31:34,480 that kind of 2461 01:31:39,510 --> 01:31:35,760 where there 2462 01:31:43,430 --> 01:31:41,430 like i've i've thought about this before 2463 01:31:45,750 --> 01:31:43,440 and like you know again this is total 2464 01:31:49,110 --> 01:31:45,760 speculation i have no idea 2465 01:31:51,430 --> 01:31:49,120 but like it's it seems like maybe that's 2466 01:31:54,229 --> 01:31:51,440 the case that there are these other kind 2467 01:31:56,390 --> 01:31:54,239 of like radio station stations that that 2468 01:31:59,189 --> 01:31:56,400 were like like 2469 01:32:01,189 --> 01:31:59,199 something could be occupying like a 2470 01:32:02,550 --> 01:32:01,199 space it could be kind of like right 2471 01:32:04,149 --> 01:32:02,560 next to you 2472 01:32:05,830 --> 01:32:04,159 but it's on another kind of like 2473 01:32:07,750 --> 01:32:05,840 fundamental layer of reality or 2474 01:32:10,870 --> 01:32:07,760 something like that right and so it 2475 01:32:13,030 --> 01:32:10,880 could seem like it blips in and it's 2476 01:32:14,550 --> 01:32:13,040 it's almost like not like necessarily 2477 01:32:16,629 --> 01:32:14,560 teleporting because what it's really 2478 01:32:19,110 --> 01:32:16,639 doing is almost like downshifting or 2479 01:32:19,990 --> 01:32:19,120 upshifting or something i don't know 2480 01:32:20,790 --> 01:32:20,000 um 2481 01:32:25,669 --> 01:32:20,800 and 2482 01:32:28,709 --> 01:32:25,679 when we hear about this portaling or 2483 01:32:30,950 --> 01:32:28,719 this or ships or people even being like 2484 01:32:33,350 --> 01:32:30,960 levitated and floated out through a wall 2485 01:32:35,669 --> 01:32:33,360 or something like that it seems that 2486 01:32:38,629 --> 01:32:35,679 that you know whatever 2487 01:32:41,110 --> 01:32:38,639 like this advanced technology it is a 2488 01:32:43,590 --> 01:32:41,120 lot of it is taking advantage 2489 01:32:45,910 --> 01:32:43,600 of you know a lot of it starts to make 2490 01:32:47,910 --> 01:32:45,920 sense if you think like well 2491 01:32:49,990 --> 01:32:47,920 you know they're like maybe they can 2492 01:32:52,229 --> 01:32:50,000 kind of like manipulate these like 2493 01:32:54,070 --> 01:32:52,239 little shifts and and phase if you want 2494 01:32:55,910 --> 01:32:54,080 to call it that or something like that 2495 01:32:57,590 --> 01:32:55,920 and it could help explain like how could 2496 01:32:59,750 --> 01:32:57,600 somebody go through a wall how could 2497 01:33:02,070 --> 01:32:59,760 somebody like portal in how could you 2498 01:33:04,390 --> 01:33:02,080 know how could these things happen um 2499 01:33:05,830 --> 01:33:04,400 and maybe you know maybe you know people 2500 01:33:07,669 --> 01:33:05,840 speculate like 2501 01:33:09,270 --> 01:33:07,679 like oh it's the nuclear stuff like 2502 01:33:11,350 --> 01:33:09,280 that's why they're paying attention to 2503 01:33:13,910 --> 01:33:11,360 us or something like that right and like 2504 01:33:15,030 --> 01:33:13,920 maybe another layer of that is like 2505 01:33:17,030 --> 01:33:15,040 you know 2506 01:33:18,950 --> 01:33:17,040 what if we were also very close to 2507 01:33:23,030 --> 01:33:18,960 figuring that out what if we were very 2508 01:33:25,270 --> 01:33:23,040 close to figuring out how to the like 2509 01:33:27,990 --> 01:33:25,280 becoming aware of like this whole other 2510 01:33:30,229 --> 01:33:28,000 living ecosystem like this whole other 2511 01:33:32,709 --> 01:33:30,239 living environment that is like just 2512 01:33:33,590 --> 01:33:32,719 next to us somehow or something 2513 01:33:35,510 --> 01:33:33,600 yeah 2514 01:33:38,070 --> 01:33:35,520 total speculation total speculation but 2515 01:33:39,510 --> 01:33:38,080 luis lawless louis lozano talks about 2516 01:33:41,830 --> 01:33:39,520 that a lot i don't know if you listen to 2517 01:33:43,669 --> 01:33:41,840 his interviews he's like he he proposes 2518 01:33:45,189 --> 01:33:43,679 that possibility that we're living in a 2519 01:33:47,669 --> 01:33:45,199 world and this other world is just 2520 01:33:49,910 --> 01:33:47,679 outside of our ability to perceive 2521 01:33:51,990 --> 01:33:49,920 and the technology is catching up to 2522 01:33:54,149 --> 01:33:52,000 where we're able to perceive it i don't 2523 01:33:56,229 --> 01:33:54,159 know what technology he's speaking about 2524 01:33:58,070 --> 01:33:56,239 um but yeah i mean maybe and maybe 2525 01:33:59,750 --> 01:33:58,080 that's why the maybe why that's 2526 01:34:01,430 --> 01:33:59,760 supposedly why 2527 01:34:02,790 --> 01:34:01,440 contact is increasing or as far as 2528 01:34:04,390 --> 01:34:02,800 sightings 2529 01:34:08,390 --> 01:34:04,400 i'm going to take a question related to 2530 01:34:10,470 --> 01:34:08,400 what you said earlier from sure kristin

that the gray was moving did it 2549 01:34:53,270 --> 01:34:50,960 remind you at all of an insect spider 2550 01:34:55,109 --> 01:34:53,280 yeah it did um 2551 01:34:56,229 --> 01:34:55,119 and um 2552 01:34:58,870 --> 01:34:56,239 and 2553 01:35:01,590 --> 01:34:58,880 i have heard 2554 01:35:04,310 --> 01:35:01,600 other people um there um 2555 01:35:10,709 --> 01:35:08,310 there is um another experiencer on on 2556 01:35:12,390 --> 01:35:10,719 like um that i know through um the 2557 01:35:14,470 --> 01:35:12,400 support groups on the experiencer group 2558 01:35:15,590 --> 01:35:14,480 site and 2559 01:35:17,669 --> 01:35:15,600 he 2560 01:35:20,229 --> 01:35:17,679 you know i won't name him and i won't 2561 01:35:22,390 --> 01:35:20,239 like i won't go into too much detail but 2562 01:35:25,109 --> 01:35:22,400 we had a private conversation he had 2563 01:35:27,189 --> 01:35:25,119 similar exp he had 2564 01:35:29,350 --> 01:35:27,199 he has fragmentary memories and he has a 2565 01:35:32,790 --> 01:35:29,360 memory of of 2566 01:35:35,590 --> 01:35:32,800 um he has a very a fully conscious 2567 01:35:36,870 --> 01:35:35,600 memory of seeing a mantis being in like 2568 01:35:38,070 --> 01:35:36,880 a field 2569 01:35:39,590 --> 01:35:38,080 um 2570 01:35:40,950 --> 01:35:39,600 like in the middle of the day when he 2571 01:35:44,390 --> 01:35:40,960 was a kid in this kind of rural 2572 01:35:47,910 --> 01:35:44,400 environment and then he also had this 2573 01:35:50,470 --> 01:35:47,920 kind of fragmentary memory of grays 2574 01:35:53,030 --> 01:35:50,480 and he 2575 01:35:55,350 --> 01:35:53,040 you know like he like it was like 2576 01:35:56,390 --> 01:35:55,360 and he had thought that it was a dream 2577 01:35:59,030 --> 01:35:56,400 right 2578 01:36:01,030 --> 01:35:59,040 he like he and he chalked it up to being 2579 01:36:04,229 --> 01:36:01,040 a dream but then 2580 01:36:07,189 --> 01:36:04,239 um when he heard how i described them 2581 01:36:10,149 --> 01:36:07,199 you know when he heard my description 2582 01:36:11,350 --> 01:36:10,159 we got into a conversation about it and 2583 01:36:13,510 --> 01:36:11,360 and 2584 01:36:14,709 --> 01:36:13,520 it was 2585 01:36:17,189 --> 01:36:14,719 um 2586 01:36:19,510 --> 01:36:17,199 it was a bracing moment for him because 2587 01:36:21,910 --> 01:36:19,520 because he was like i like 2588 01:36:23,270 --> 01:36:21,920 it i think um 2589 01:36:24,790 --> 01:36:23,280 it made 2590 01:36:26,950 --> 01:36:24,800 him realize that maybe that wasn't a 2591 01:36:29,990 --> 01:36:26,960 dream after all because it was it was a 2592 01:36:30,870 --> 01:36:30,000 very very similar situation 2593 01:36:33,189 --> 01:36:30,880 um 2594 01:36:34,070 --> 01:36:33,199 but yeah and it's interesting because 2595 01:36:43,590 --> 01:36:34,080 like 2596 01:36:45,109 --> 01:36:43,600 i've seen that happen a couple times 2597 01:36:47,109 --> 01:36:45,119 where their feet actually aren't 2598 01:36:48,790 --> 01:36:47,119 touching the floor and it's like 2599 01:36:50,550 --> 01:36:48,800 they're like they themselves are 2600 01:36:52,709 --> 01:36:50,560 levitating like a few inches off the 2601 01:36:54,470 --> 01:36:52,719 ground and then some people talk about 2602 01:36:55,910 --> 01:36:54,480 this like weird shuffle 2603 01:36:58,149 --> 01:36:55,920 and then there's also this kind of like 2604 01:37:01,189 --> 01:36:58,159 marionette movement and so you know is 2605 01:37:03,109 --> 01:37:01,199 that a discrepancy or is that like 2606 01:37:05,430 --> 01:37:03,119 you know is that 2607 01:37:07,510 --> 01:37:05,440 different classes of of these beings 2608 01:37:10,229 --> 01:37:07,520 maybe there are very like there are 2609 01:37:12,229 --> 01:37:10,239 clearly different types of grays from 2610 01:37:15,030 --> 01:37:12,239 what it seems like some 2611 01:37:16,870 --> 01:37:15,040 very uniform mushroom colored skin 2612 01:37:18,070 --> 01:37:16,880 some have like a more kind of like 2613 01:37:19,270 --> 01:37:18,080 modeled 2614 01:37:24,470 --> 01:37:19,280 um 2615 01:37:26,070 --> 01:37:24,480 like have like actually have kind of 2616 01:37:27,109 --> 01:37:26,080 like marks on their skin and things like 2617 01:37:29,270 --> 01:37:27,119 that and 2618 01:37:31,189 --> 01:37:29,280 so you know is that a different type of 2619 01:37:33,189 --> 01:37:31,199 being entirely that just has a bulbous 2620 01:37:34,790 --> 01:37:33,199 head and the similar like i'm not sure 2621 01:37:36,629 --> 01:37:34,800 but maybe that helps explain like the 2622 01:37:38,070 --> 01:37:36,639 differences in the body body movements i 2623 01:37:42,390 --> 01:37:38,080 don't know 2624 01:37:44,470 --> 01:37:42,400 right um yeah i was going to say um 2625 01:37:46,390 --> 01:37:44,480 your mantis experience have you had a 2626 01:37:47,270 --> 01:37:46,400 lot of them 2627 01:37:48,390 --> 01:37:47,280 um 2628 01:37:49,910 --> 01:37:48,400 i mean 2629 01:37:51,830 --> 01:37:49,920 there's 2630 01:37:54,149 --> 01:37:51,840 there um i 2631 01:37:56,790 --> 01:37:54,159 there's been a few notable 2632 01:37:58,390 --> 01:37:56,800 instances and then there's a lot of like 2633 01:38:00,470 --> 01:37:58,400 fragmentary 2634 01:38:02,709 --> 01:38:00,480 memories and so 2635 01:38:05,430 --> 01:38:02,719 um i think this happens for a lot of 2636 01:38:07,910 --> 01:38:05,440 people where there's 2637 01:38:09,270 --> 01:38:07,920 you know some very key 2638 01:38:11,270 --> 01:38:09,280 like waking 2639 01:38:13,030 --> 01:38:11,280 like fully awake 2640 01:38:15,270 --> 01:38:13,040 experiences and then there's other 2641 01:38:17,830 --> 01:38:15,280 situations where 2642 01:38:19,830 --> 01:38:17,840 it almost feels like you know like 2643 01:38:21,270 --> 01:38:19,840 you're you've been manipulated into some 2644 01:38:23,350 --> 01:38:21,280 kind of like 2645

like 2669 01:39:25,030 --> 01:39:23,520 a pretty accurate 2670 01:39:27,750 --> 01:39:25,040 picture i mean you know it's definitely 2671 01:39:29,109 --> 01:39:27,760 transparent i thought it would be 2672 01:39:30,709 --> 01:39:29,119 yeah um 2673 01:39:33,030 --> 01:39:30,719 you know they often wear like these kind 2674 01:39:35,109 --> 01:39:33,040 of cloaks and like 2675 01:39:36,950 --> 01:39:35,119 some or people some people describe them 2676 01:39:37,990 --> 01:39:36,960 as robes or capes and there are 2677 01:39:40,790 --> 01:39:38,000 different 2678 01:39:42,550 --> 01:39:40,800 versions of this that are but like this 2679 01:39:45,590 --> 01:39:42,560 particular one it's like a three-quarter 2680 01:39:47,669 --> 01:39:45,600 sleeve like their their hands do do that 2681 01:39:48,950 --> 01:39:47,679 with this kind of like weird 2682 01:39:50,390 --> 01:39:48,960 thing right 2683 01:39:51,430 --> 01:39:50,400 and like 2684 01:39:55,990 --> 01:39:51,440 um 2685 01:39:58,629 --> 01:39:56,000 uh they uh 2686 01:40:01,030 --> 01:39:58,639 yeah the like kind of a thin neck you 2687 01:40:02,790 --> 01:40:01,040 know like it's it's 2688 01:40:04,229 --> 01:40:02,800 i'm not and i don't know what's what's 2689 01:40:06,310 --> 01:40:04,239 up with the cloaks you know what i mean 2690 01:40:09,510 --> 01:40:06,320 is that i'm like 2691 01:40:11,350 --> 01:40:09,520 this particular piece of clothing it was 2692 01:40:13,750 --> 01:40:11,360 actually kind of like 2693 01:40:15,109 --> 01:40:13,760 it's not as heavy as it looks like it's 2694 01:40:17,910 --> 01:40:15,119 actually it was actually kind of like a 2695 01:40:20,310 --> 01:40:17,920 nylon almost like a water repellent kind 2696 01:40:22,629 --> 01:40:20,320 of fabric it seemed like something that 2697 01:40:23,590 --> 01:40:22,639 you could almost like hose off so it 2698 01:40:26,950 --> 01:40:23,600 seemed like it had some kind of 2699 01:40:29,189 --> 01:40:26,960 utilitarian angle and i've seen that in 2700 01:40:31,990 --> 01:40:29,199 situations where 2701 01:40:35,189 --> 01:40:32,000 there were like medical situations so it 2702 01:40:37,109 --> 01:40:35,199 may be like kind of like a like a scrubs 2703 01:40:39,590 --> 01:40:37,119 kind of scenario i'm not sure 2704 01:40:40,790 --> 01:40:39,600 um and then or other they decided they 2705 01:40:42,229 --> 01:40:40,800 needed uh 2706 01:40:44,390 --> 01:40:42,239 they needed this they got around 2707 01:40:46,550 --> 01:40:44,400 together like guys we need something 2708 01:40:48,229 --> 01:40:46,560 that stands out what can we come up with 2709 01:40:49,189 --> 01:40:48,239 like how about the uh the cloak i'm like 2710 01:40:51,510 --> 01:40:49,199 okay 2711 01:40:53,189 --> 01:40:51,520 yeah i mean there's a there's a kind of 2712 01:40:55,030 --> 01:40:53,199 like ridiculous angle to it where it's 2713 01:40:57,270 --> 01:40:55,040 like it's like you're already like this 2714 01:40:59,910 --> 01:40:57,280 giant creature like you don't have to 2715 01:41:01,350 --> 01:40:59,920 like be so majestic and have such 2716 01:41:02,470 --> 01:41:01,360 pageantry about the whole thing or 2717 01:41:04,229 --> 01:41:02,480 whatever but 2718 01:41:06,550 --> 01:41:04,239 you know i mean like i get it they have 2719 01:41:07,910 --> 01:41:06,560 a weird body type so just wearing kind 2720 01:41:10,390 --> 01:41:07,920 of like a big 2721 01:41:12,550 --> 01:41:10,400 form like that makes sense but like 2722 01:41:15,189 --> 01:41:12,560 maybe another angle there is like again 2723 01:41:16,790 --> 01:41:15,199 this is total speculation but it's like 2724 01:41:19,189 --> 01:41:16,800 you know it's disturbing enough just 2725 01:41:21,109 --> 01:41:19,199 seeing the hands and the head and like 2726 01:41:22,310 --> 01:41:21,119 maybe there's also an element where it's 2727 01:41:23,510 --> 01:41:22,320 just like 2728 01:41:28,629 --> 01:41:23,520 like 2729 01:41:30,709 --> 01:41:28,639 percent less if they don't see eighty 2730 01:41:31,590 --> 01:41:30,719 percent of our body you know what i mean 2731 01:41:33,590 --> 01:41:31,600 like 2732 01:41:36,550 --> 01:41:33,600 but i'm not really sure you know i have 2733 01:41:38,310 --> 01:41:36,560 no idea and we've talked about earlier 2734 01:41:40,310 --> 01:41:38,320 you know we speculated that maybe that's 2735 01:41:41,830 --> 01:41:40,320 not even i mean 2736 01:41:43,669 --> 01:41:41,840 maybe it's not really their form you 2737 01:41:45,350 --> 01:41:43,679 know we talked about how the whole 2738 01:41:46,950 --> 01:41:45,360 lights in the sky is a distraction it's 2739 01:41:48,950 --> 01:41:46,960 more it's different the intelligence is 2740 01:41:50,709 --> 01:41:48,960 something different maybe these are 2741 01:41:53,270 --> 01:41:50,719 proxy forms that they take you know 2742 01:41:55,270 --> 01:41:53,280 they're able to create with advanced 3d 2743 01:41:57,669 --> 01:41:55,280 printing craft bodies 2744 01:42:00,470 --> 01:41:57,679 total speculation and it's not my idea i 2745 01:42:01,830 --> 01:42:00,480 mean valet uh keel 2746 01:42:03,109 --> 01:42:01,840 they all speculated about it that's the 2747 01:42:05,109 --> 01:42:03,119 first time i heard it was reading john 2748 01:42:07,350 --> 01:42:05,119 keel's book um 2749 01:42:09,109 --> 01:42:07,360 but yeah as you said it's scary enough i 2750 01:42:10,950 --> 01:42:09,119 mean i 2751 01:42:12,470 --> 01:42:10,960 a lot of credit to you because or in 2752 01:42:14,550 --> 01:42:12,480 people who experience in these because i 2753 01:42:16,310 --> 01:42:14,560 don't know what i would do i mean first 2754 01:42:18,390 --> 01:42:16,320 of all about speaking publicly you're 2755 01:42:20,790 --> 01:42:18,400 brave and second of all 2756 01:42:22,310 --> 01:42:20,800 i'd be scared or dumb everything in my 2757 01:42:23,830 --> 01:42:22,320 room at night let alone i'm just i'm 2758 01:42:25,189 --> 01:42:23,840 kidding i'm kidding 2759 01:42:27,270 --> 01:42:25,199 what'd you say i said you said you're 2760 01:42:28,870 --> 01:42:27,280 brave and i said or dumb maybe i'm just 2761 01:42:32,310 --> 01:42:28,880 like i'm kidding i'm playing around for 2762 01:42:34,310 --> 01:42:32,320 fun i'm just trying to no but it's like 2763 01:42:36,070 --> 01:42:34,320 i'd be scared seeing a human in my room 2764 01:42:38,149 --> 01:42:36,080 if whatever time in the night let alone 2765 01:42:40,070 --> 01:42:38,159 a giant praying mantis i mean i just 2766 01:42:41,990 --> 01:42:40,080 it's just so s 2767 01:42:43,990 --> 01:42:42,000 yeah yeah it 2768 01:42:45,590 --> 01:42:44,000 you know if it is some sort of proxy why 2769 01:42:47,590 --> 01:42:45,600 would you do that it's like it's such a 2770 01:42:48,550 --> 01:42:47,600 scary form you know 2771 01:42:50,950 --> 01:42:48,560 yeah 2772 01:42:52,390 --> 01:42:50,960 they and and at the same time like 2773 01:42:53,590 --> 01:42:52,400 they're like 2774 01:42:56,310 --> 01:42:53,600 they 2775 01:42:57,750 --> 01:42:56,320 like and like i recognize that this is 2776 01:43:00,229 --> 01:42:57,760 going to be like 2777 01:43:02,629 --> 01:43:00,239 that this is hard for some people 2778 01:43:04,870 --> 01:43:02,639 because like they may like 2779 01:43:06,790 --> 01:43:04,880 they may have like an understanding of 2780 01:43:08,790 --> 01:43:06,800 grays or that maybe something you know 2781 01:43:11,270 --> 01:43:08,800 it's clearly pervasive in popular 2782 01:43:12,470 --> 01:43:11,280 culture the idea of the greys and this 2783 01:43:13,910 --> 01:43:12,480 is like 2784 01:43:16,629 --> 01:43:13,920 a being that hasn't been really 2785 01:43:19,669 --> 01:43:16,639 portrayed much in popular culture so 2786 01:43:22,709 --> 01:43:19,679 even that as a conceptual thing might be 2787 01:43:23,590 --> 01:43:22,719 hard for some people but you know like 2788 01:43:26,229 --> 01:43:23,600 um 2789 01:43:28,870 --> 01:43:26,239 they definitely seem like in situations 2790 01:43:30,950 --> 01:43:28,880 where they and greys are around they 2791 01:43:32,550 --> 01:43:30,960 definitely seem to be 2792 01:43:34,149 --> 01:43:32,560 you know kind of like running the show 2793 01:43:36,870 --> 01:43:34,159 they definitely seem to be kind of like 2794 01:43:38,470 --> 01:43:36,880 have an overseeing supervisorial kind of 2795 01:43:39,430 --> 01:43:38,480 angle to things 2796 01:43:43,270 --> 01:43:39,440 and 2797 01:43:45,669 --> 01:43:43,280 they 2798 01:43:47,750 --> 01:43:45,679 like there's a lot of 2799 01:43:49,750 --> 01:43:47,760 energy like it's it's hard to put into 2800 01:43:51,510 --> 01:43:49,760 words because like 2801 01:43:54,070 --> 01:43:51,520 we like 2802 01:43:56,149 --> 01:43:54,080 i think that over the course of time one 2803 01:43:57,910 --> 01:43:56,159 of the things that we need to get over 2804 01:44:01,109 --> 01:43:57,920 uh or get through 2805 01:44:02,870 --> 01:44:01,119 within ufology or within these topics is 2806 01:44:05,669 --> 01:44:02,880 that we need to like 2807 01:44:08,070 --> 01:44:05,679 we need to like figure out these terms 2808 01:44:10,229 --> 01:44:08,080 we need to figure out like a clear set 2809 01:44:12,229 --> 01:44:10,239 of terms for some of this stuff 2810 01:44:13,990 --> 01:44:12,239 because like i think a lot of stuff like 2811 01:44:16,310 --> 01:44:14,000 when somebody says like it felt like 2812 01:44:18,790 --> 01:44:16,320 energy and some people hear that and 2813 01:44:21,189 --> 01:44:18,800 they're like oh this is like woo or 2814 01:44:22,229 --> 01:44:21,199 something like that right but like if we 2815 01:44:24,709 --> 01:44:22,239 can like 2816 01:44:27,270 --> 01:44:24,719 get into what that feels like if we can 2817 01:44:30,470 --> 01:44:27,280 get into like actually kind of like 2818 01:44:33,109 --> 01:44:30,480 you know like like cataloging this stuff 2819 01:44:34,390 --> 01:44:33,119 and like trying to and like agreeing to 2820 01:44:37,669 --> 01:44:34,400 some terms 2821 01:44:38,470 --> 01:44:37,679 then we can probably get a lot further 2822 01:44:43,990 --> 01:44:38,480 and 2823 01:44:47,030 --> 01:44:44,000 out you know what i mean so anyway like 2824 01:44:49,350 --> 01:44:47,040 the like the like on top of like the 2825 01:44:51,750 --> 01:44:49,360 look is that like 2826 01:44:53,990 --> 01:44:51,760 um it's a like when one of these beings 2827 01:44:56,870 --> 01:44:54,000 is around it's like a really charged 2828 01:44:59,430 --> 01:44:56,880 environment they clearly have like the 2829 01:45:03,510 --> 01:44:59,440 upper hand in the situation 2830 01:45:04,550 --> 01:45:03,520 um and also like but also 2831 01:45:06,310 --> 01:45:04,560 they 2832 01:45:07,750 --> 01:45:06,320 speak differently 2833 01:45:08,709 --> 01:45:07,760 like they're like their

01:47:14,070 --> 01:47:11,920 because 2882 01:47:16,550 --> 01:47:14,080 it's a different way of communicating 2883 01:47:18,790 --> 01:47:16,560 and it's not just it's not how we speak 2884 01:47:21,350 --> 01:47:18,800 in this kind of like linear 2885 01:47:23,350 --> 01:47:21,360 you know word by word way it's almost 2886 01:47:25,430 --> 01:47:23,360 like it's almost like 2887 01:47:27,990 --> 01:47:25,440 it's almost like a little bubble 2888 01:47:29,990 --> 01:47:28,000 of like a few words and and like an 2889 01:47:32,310 --> 01:47:30,000 action or something like that 2890 01:47:33,669 --> 01:47:32,320 and like through and they it happens 2891 01:47:34,830 --> 01:47:33,679 sequentially 2892 01:47:38,550 --> 01:47:34,840 and 2893 01:47:39,910 --> 01:47:38,560 it's

this 3244 02:01:04,790 --> 02:01:02,639 device 3245 02:01:07,430 --> 02:01:04,800 such that like the end of this thing 3246 02:01:10,550 --> 02:01:07,440 kind of like extended out and 3247 02:01:12,310 --> 02:01:10,560 these three or four pincers opened out 3248 02:01:14,950 --> 02:01:12,320 of this thing right so it almost had 3249 02:01:17,990 --> 02:01:14,960 this kind of like snakey movement 3250 02:01:21,109 --> 02:01:18,000 it reaches in under my under my my 3251 02:01:23,109 --> 02:01:21,119 eyelid my right eye 3252 02:01:24,070 --> 02:01:23,119 pops my eye out 3253 02:01:25,910 --> 02:01:24,080 all right 3254 02:01:27,669 --> 02:01:25,920 and like all of a sudden 3255 02:01:29,270 --> 02:01:27,679 like i don't know if anybody that's 3256 02:01:31,750 --> 02:01:29,280 going to be watching this now or later 3257 02:01:34,310 --> 02:01:31,760 has ever had an experience like this but 3258 02:01:36,070 --> 02:01:34,320 like when your eye when that happens 3259 02:01:37,910 --> 02:01:36,080 like all of a sudden you you're it's 3260 02:01:39,030 --> 02:01:37,920 like two cameras it's like camera a 3261 02:01:40,629 --> 02:01:39,040 camera b 3262 02:01:43,270 --> 02:01:40,639 like you don't have unified sight 3263 02:01:45,910 --> 02:01:43,280 anymore right so like the one like this 3264 02:01:48,149 --> 02:01:45,920 one was basically covered by this like 3265 02:01:49,990 --> 02:01:48,159 pincer device 3266 02:01:53,030 --> 02:01:50,000 and then from my left eye i'm looking 3267 02:01:55,589 --> 02:01:53,040 over and i can see this thing my eyeball 3268 02:01:57,510 --> 02:01:55,599 and then like the the i can't remember 3269 02:01:58,470 --> 02:01:57,520 what you call it but like the like 3270 02:02:00,790 --> 02:01:58,480 string 3271 02:02:03,430 --> 02:02:00,800 that like connects your eye to your head 3272 02:02:05,270 --> 02:02:03,440 it's like it's just like and it it was 3273 02:02:06,229 --> 02:02:05,280 out like maybe that far from my head 3274 02:02:07,910 --> 02:02:06,239 okay 3275 02:02:09,589 --> 02:02:07,920 and like it 3276 02:02:12,790 --> 02:02:09,599 and then 3277 02:02:14,790 --> 02:02:12,800 i could see this other almost like um 3278 02:02:17,350 --> 02:02:14,800 almost like a tweezer or something like 3279 02:02:19,109 --> 02:02:17,360 that like kind of like being inserted 3280 02:02:21,669 --> 02:02:19,119 like under it 3281 02:02:23,350 --> 02:02:21,679 and i and like other than that and 3282 02:02:25,750 --> 02:02:23,360 seeing a few beings like in my 3283 02:02:27,669 --> 02:02:25,760 peripheral vision off back i don't 3284 02:02:29,990 --> 02:02:27,679 remember what happened after that i 3285 02:02:32,950 --> 02:02:30,000 think i was like made to black out or 3286 02:02:34,149 --> 02:02:32,960 maybe i like out from fear like at that 3287 02:02:35,830 --> 02:02:34,159 moment 3288 02:02:38,550 --> 02:02:35,840 um but 3289 02:02:40,950 --> 02:02:38,560 i woke up the next morning and and i was 3290 02:02:42,629 --> 02:02:40,960 like god that that was really disturbing 3291 02:02:44,830 --> 02:02:42,639 you know what i mean like you know wake 3292 02:02:48,070 --> 02:02:44,840 up is really disturbing 3293 02:02:49,189 --> 02:02:48,080 and over the next couple days i realized 3294 02:02:51,270 --> 02:02:49,199 i was like 3295 02:02:53,350 --> 02:02:51,280 i was going longer and longer without 3296 02:02:54,709 --> 02:02:53,360 putting my glasses on you know what i 3297 02:02:56,470 --> 02:02:54,719 mean normally like looking at the 3298 02:02:58,950 --> 02:02:56,480 computer reading 3299 02:03:00,550 --> 02:02:58,960 going outside like i like i'd throw my 3300 02:03:02,870 --> 02:03:00,560 glasses on because otherwise i would 3301 02:03:03,750 --> 02:03:02,880 start getting a headache right and like 3302 02:03:06,149 --> 02:03:03,760 um 3303 02:03:08,470 --> 02:03:06,159 and i realized and like within a few 3304 02:03:09,750 --> 02:03:08,480 days after that i realized like 3305 02:03:11,430 --> 02:03:09,760 like 3306 02:03:14,070 --> 02:03:11,440 i'm just gonna not wear my glasses today 3307 02:03:16,790 --> 02:03:14,080 because i don't maybe i don't need to 3308 02:03:17,910 --> 02:03:16,800 like like i can see like my like i can 3309 02:03:22,229 --> 02:03:17,920 like 3310 02:03:24,070 --> 02:03:22,239 my my focus wasn't so great at about 3311 02:03:25,750 --> 02:03:24,080 this distance all right and then i i 3312 02:03:27,589 --> 02:03:25,760 recognized i was like wait a second like 3313 02:03:30,390 --> 02:03:27,599 i can focus 3314 02:03:31,990 --> 02:03:30,400 like like like closer again and then i 3315 02:03:33,350 --> 02:03:32,000 and then over time i recognized that i 3316 02:03:36,149 --> 02:03:33,360 didn't i didn't have to wear my glasses 3317 02:03:37,589 --> 02:03:36,159 anymore i kept them for posterity but 3318 02:03:39,669 --> 02:03:37,599 um and so i don't know what the hell 3319 02:03:41,270 --> 02:03:39,679 that was like that like 3320 02:03:42,870 --> 02:03:41,280 i don't know if that was a byproduct i 3321 02:03:44,470 --> 02:03:42,880 don't know if it was decided like you 3322 02:03:46,390 --> 02:03:44,480 know what i mean like was that like a 3323 02:03:48,229 --> 02:03:46,400 convenient side effect of whatever they 3324 02:03:49,830 --> 02:03:48,239 were doing like 3325 02:03:51,430 --> 02:03:49,840 what are they trying you know what i 3326 02:03:53,189 --> 02:03:51,440 mean were they trying to fix my vision 3327 02:03:55,109 --> 02:03:53,199 or did they just have to do something 3328 02:03:56,950 --> 02:03:55,119 and then they were they're like 3329 02:03:58,550 --> 02:03:56,960 you know they left it better than they 3330 02:03:59,910 --> 02:03:58,560 found it or something like that i don't 3331 02:04:01,510 --> 02:03:59,920 know you know what i mean yeah or maybe 3332 02:04:04,069 --> 02:04:01,520 they're you know i think maybe they're 3333 02:04:05,510 --> 02:04:04,079 and obviously we're speculating um 3334 02:04:07,109 --> 02:04:05,520 they're 3335 02:04:08,149 --> 02:04:07,119 doing what they need to do on their end 3336 02:04:09,830 --> 02:04:08,159 and then one of them's like you know 3337 02:04:11,270 --> 02:04:09,840 what let's throw the guy a bone we've 3338 02:04:12,870 --> 02:04:11,280 been doing all this stuff to him let's 3339 02:04:14,550 --> 02:04:12,880 fix his eyesight while we're at it you 3340 02:04:15,830 --> 02:04:14,560 know it's like 3341 02:04:17,189 --> 02:04:15,840 you know because i'm like what do you 3342 02:04:18,870 --> 02:04:17,199 think i mean what do you think of all 3343 02:04:20,470 --> 02:04:18,880 this what is going on i mean i know yeah 3344 02:04:21,589 --> 02:04:20,480 it's obvious we're speculating here but 3345 02:04:23,270 --> 02:04:21,599 it's like 3346 02:04:25,109 --> 02:04:23,280 do you have like a favorite hypothesis 3347 02:04:28,069 --> 02:04:25,119 of what's going on with you specifically 3348 02:04:29,830 --> 02:04:28,079 over over all these years 3349 02:04:31,669 --> 02:04:29,840 um i mean 3350 02:04:34,390 --> 02:04:31,679 they're definitely 3351 02:04:36,790 --> 02:04:34,400 like i like again speculation and i 3352 02:04:39,270 --> 02:04:36,800 don't know you know what i mean and like 3353 02:04:41,350 --> 02:04:39,280 i like i like 3354 02:04:45,030 --> 02:04:41,360 very clearly i don't know but 3355 02:04:46,790 --> 02:04:45,040 the there definitely has been like 3356 02:04:48,790 --> 02:04:46,800 you know since 3357 02:04:51,510 --> 02:04:48,800 you know especially in my 20s i have 3358 02:04:52,470 --> 02:04:51,520 more fragmentary memories of like of 3359 02:04:56,550 --> 02:04:52,480 like 3360 02:04:59,109 --> 02:04:56,560 they were kind of taking diagnostics or 3361 02:05:00,470 --> 02:04:59,119 you know fluids and things like that 3362 02:05:03,910 --> 02:05:00,480 and it seemed like there was they're 3363 02:05:05,589 --> 02:05:03,920 kind of like keeping a record of 3364 02:05:07,430 --> 02:05:05,599 like um 3365 02:05:09,030 --> 02:05:07,440 of me you know what i mean like doing 3366 02:05:11,990 --> 02:05:09,040 like a workup or something like i don't 3367 02:05:14,229 --> 02:05:12,000 like like taking some kind of of 3368 02:05:16,069 --> 02:05:14,239 readings like regularly 3369 02:05:18,950 --> 02:05:16,079 um and 3370 02:05:20,470 --> 02:05:18,960 and so like i know you know like 3371 02:05:23,270 --> 02:05:20,480 that's 3372 02:05:25,430 --> 02:05:23,280 like you know i'm i'm pretty dang sure 3373 02:05:28,470 --> 02:05:25,440 about that you know i have enough point 3374 02:05:29,430 --> 02:05:28,480 i have plenty of enough memories of that 3375 02:05:30,229 --> 02:05:29,440 um 3376 02:05:31,589 --> 02:05:30,239 but 3377 02:05:37,510 --> 02:05:31,599 why 3378 02:05:40,709 --> 02:05:39,750 you know there does seem to be something 3379 02:05:41,830 --> 02:05:40,719 to 3380 02:05:43,669 --> 02:05:41,840 the 3381 02:05:47,270 --> 02:05:43,679 genetic 3382 02:05:49,109 --> 02:05:47,280 you know like i i 3383 02:05:53,350 --> 02:05:49,119 they're 3384 02:05:55,990 --> 02:05:53,360 i now i'm getting like really dicey 3385 02:05:58,149 --> 02:05:56,000 about what i want to say but like i i i 3386 02:06:00,709 --> 02:05:58,159 because it's it's controversial you know 3387 02:06:02,390 --> 02:06:00,719 but like there does there does seem to 3388 02:06:05,750 --> 02:06:02,400 be they definitely 3389 02:06:08,550 --> 02:06:05,760 like whatever that particular group of 3390 02:06:13,030 --> 02:06:08,560 beings are or some of them or whatever 3391 02:06:14,310 --> 02:06:13,040 um and i think that like i've had 3392 02:06:16,790 --> 02:06:14,320 more 3393 02:06:19,830 --> 02:06:16,800 than just this one group of like medical 3394 02:06:21,189 --> 02:06:19,840 experimenting beings right because the 3395 02:06:23,350 --> 02:06:21,199 like i don't know what the ghost 3396 02:06:24,550 --> 02:06:23,360 poltergeist stuff is and and this is 3397 02:06:27,510 --> 02:06:24,560 really common you know on the 3398 02:06:30,310 --> 02:06:27,520 experiencer group like it's really 3399 02:06:32,310 --> 02:06:30,320 it's actually more the like the rules 3400 02:06:34,390 --> 02:06:32,320 and the exception that like a lot of 3401 02:06:35,669 --> 02:06:34,400 experiencers will have more than one 3402 02:06:38,310 --> 02:06:35,679 modality 3403 02:06:39,430 --> 02:06:38,320 or you know it's not just one encounter 3404 02:06:41,270 --> 02:06:39,440 like 3405 02:06:43,350 --> 02:06:41,280 you know people used to discredit people 3406 02:06:45,350 --> 02:06:43,360 for having like more than one encounter 3407 02:06:47,750 --> 02:06:45,360 but like the re like 3408 02:06:50,229 --> 02:06:47,760 from the numbers and from the cases that 3409 02:06:51,990 --> 02:06:50,239 i know of it's it's it would be 3410 02:06:53,669 --> 02:06:52,000 much more notable 3411 02:06:56,790 --> 02:06:53,679 if something only happened once to 3412 02:06:58,629 --> 02:06:56,800 somebody than then then happening much 3413 02:07:00,470 --> 02:06:58,639 more frequently and people don't want to 3414 02:07:02,069 --> 02:07:00,480 admit that but it's 3415 02:07:05,350 --> 02:07:02,079 usually the case 3416 02:07:06,950 --> 02:07:05,360 um so you know like i like apart from 3417 02:07:08,310 --> 02:07:06,960 that i'm not sure it seems like they're 3418 02:07:11,430 --> 02:07:08,320 definitely interested in our body 3419 02:07:14,069 --> 02:07:11,440 process and stuff like that and and 3420 02:07:15,750 --> 02:07:14,079 you know i i'm not sure why i like i 3421 02:07:18,390 --> 02:07:15,760 don't know if it's you know we could 3422 02:07:20,550 --> 02:07:18,400 talk about the hybrid program or 3423 02:07:22,790 --> 02:07:20,560 manipulation sort of stuff like that 3424 02:07:24,790 --> 02:07:22,800 like i don't have an answer all i know 3425 02:07:27,109 --> 02:07:24,800 is that and it kind of makes sense to me 3426 02:07:29,589 --> 02:07:27,119 like if we if we got to some other 3427 02:07:31,669 --> 02:07:29,599 environment and there were biological 3428 02:07:33,750 --> 02:07:31,679 entities there we would probably you 3429 02:07:35,990 --> 02:07:33,760 know we do that in our own oceans you 3430 02:07:37,830 --> 02:07:36,000 know what i mean like marine biologists 3431 02:07:40,229 --> 02:07:37,840 and stuff like that we study everything 3432 02:07:42,870 --> 02:07:40,239 that we can find so it kind of makes it 3433 02:07:44,950 --> 02:07:42,880 in that way if it's even just that that 3434 02:07:48,069 --> 02:07:44,960 makes you know that would make sense to 3435 02:07:49,990 --> 02:07:48,079 me but i'm not sure 3436 02:07:52,310 --> 02:07:50,000 before i i definitely want to touch on 3437 02:07:53,589 --> 02:07:52,320 one thing um as far as your friends and 3438 02:07:55,270 --> 02:07:53,599 how

somebody else like that can be 3876 02:24:32,389 --> 02:24:30,080 an extraordinarily subjective situation 3877 02:24:33,830 --> 02:24:32,399 and there's a lot of reasons to like you 3878 02:24:35,190 --> 02:24:33,840 want to protect your bank account you 3879 02:24:36,790 --> 02:24:35,200 want to protect your job you want to 3880 02:24:39,110 --> 02:24:36,800 protect your family you want to

recognize that 3884 02:24:49,190 --> 02:24:47,280 that this is going to be like 3885 02:24:52,389 --> 02:24:49,200 that there they're probably going to be 3886 02:24:54,389 --> 02:24:52,399 situations in the future where like like 3887 02:24:57,510 --> 02:24:54,399 agreeing to do this article with ralph 3888 02:24:59,510 --> 02:24:57,520 blumenthal and like you know and 3889 02:25:01,110 --> 02:24:59,520 becoming public about this 3890 02:25:02,550 --> 02:25:01,120 and i'm sure that there are going to be 3891 02:25:04,070 --> 02:25:02,560 times in the future where this is going 3892 02:25:06,550 --> 02:25:04,080 to kind of like 3893 02:25:09,110 --> 02:25:06,560 uh where it it might you know kind of 3894 02:25:11,030 --> 02:25:09,120 bite me in the behind you know but like 3895 02:25:13,830 --> 02:25:11,040 at the same time like 3896 02:25:16,550 --> 02:25:13,840 it like we need to keep pushing this 3897 02:25:17,429 --> 02:25:16,560 ball down the field because like 3898 02:25:18,710 --> 02:25:17,439 like 3899 02:25:25,030 --> 02:25:18,720 these are 3900 02:25:27,110 --> 02:25:25,040 like what else are we doing if like if 3901 02:25:28,870 --> 02:25:27,120 we don't keep asking big questions like 3902 02:25:30,070 --> 02:25:28,880 how like the 3903 02:25:32,790 --> 02:25:30,080 like 3904 02:25:34,630 --> 02:25:32,800 how are we gonna progress right 3905 02:25:36,150 --> 02:25:34,640 and like and 3906 02:25:37,670 --> 02:25:36,160 and the thing is is that this stuff 3907 02:25:38,790 --> 02:25:37,680 happens whether we want to acknowledge 3908 02:25:40,550 --> 02:25:38,800 it or not 3909 02:25:42,230 --> 02:25:40,560 and if we can acknowledge it and if we 3910 02:25:44,070 --> 02:25:42,240 can have these conversations then we're 3911 02:25:45,590 --> 02:25:44,080 going to have less people 3912 02:25:47,510 --> 02:25:45,600 that are like 3913 02:25:50,630 --> 02:25:47,520 you know there are plenty of experiences 3914 02:25:53,030 --> 02:25:50,640 that they're of of of denying this or 3915 02:25:55,590 --> 02:25:53,040 their way of kind of like dealing with 3916 02:25:58,469 --> 02:25:55,600 like consensus reality like the 3917 02:26:00,230 --> 02:25:58,479 day-to-day popular culture that does not 3918 02:26:02,230 --> 02:26:00,240 acknowledge this stuff you know it's 3919 02:26:03,990 --> 02:26:02,240 like substance abuse there's a lot of 3920 02:26:06,309 --> 02:26:04,000 that chronic depression people get 3921 02:26:08,950 --> 02:26:06,319 hospitalized about this stuff people 3922 02:26:11,830 --> 02:26:08,960 commit suicide over this like there's a 3923 02:26:15,030 --> 02:26:11,840 lot of that and like it doesn't 3924 02:26:16,790 --> 02:26:15,040 and like like like that shouldn't 3925 02:26:19,349 --> 02:26:16,800 you know we need to get past this if 3926 02:26:23,190 --> 02:26:19,359 nothing else so that like 3927 02:26:25,510 --> 02:26:23,200 so that more people can like live 3928 02:26:27,110 --> 02:26:25,520 healthier productive lives 3929 02:26:29,190 --> 02:26:27,120 does that make sense 3930 02:26:31,270 --> 02:26:29,200 yeah and i'm i'm hope i hope we make 3931 02:26:33,510 -->
