00:01:31,560 --> 00:01:29,620 is it's astonishing ah it's a revolution 27 00:01:35,490 --> 00:01:31,570 you might say well that's how it's 28 00:01:38,340 --> 00:01:35,500 appearing and like any good skeptic Lynn 29 00:01:43,530 --> 00:01:38,350 has put her workup for other people in 30 00:01:45,780 --> 00:01:43,540 the field to attack it to see if there 31 00:01:48,600 --> 00:01:45,790 are holes

00:01:53,590 cultures and other cultures around the 35 00:02:00,360 --> 00:01:56,860 world remembered things without a 36 00:02:02,310 --> 00:02:00,370 written language and not just mundane 37 00:02:05,430 --> 00:02:02,320 everyday things they remembered a 38 00:02:09,029 --> 00:02:05,440 staggering amount of vital knowledge 39 00:02:10,830 --> 00:02:09,039 family history when to plant

tsunamis throughout the 43 00:02:19,110 --> 00:02:16,599 world of ancient history and academia 44 00:02:21,030 --> 00:02:19,120 join me in a few minutes when I have a 45 00:02:23,160 --> 00:02:21,040

00:04:23,180 you this story about the film festival 93 00:04:28,060 --> 00:04:25,220 in castlemaine or Castlemaine as they 94 00:04:32,320 --> 00:04:28,070 say in Victoria that we're going to show 95 00:04:36,940 --> 00:04:32,330 the film vax my Andrew Wakefield now due 96 00:04:39,640 --> 00:04:36,950 to a very negative publicity they said 97 00:04:41,860 --> 00:04:39,650 they would withdraw the movie from the 98 00:04:44,200 --> 00:04:41,870 festival which they did then we 99 00:04:46,780 --> 00:04:44,210 discovered that was scheduled then to be 100 00:04:50,410 --> 00:04:46,790 shown a week earlier at the cinema 101 00:04:51,700 --> 00:04:50,420 now that's been withdrawn as well now of 102 00:04:54,700 --> 00:04:51,710 course your one stop shop for 103 00:04:59,050 --> 00:04:54,710 information about this is reasonable 104 00:05:01,300 --> 00:04:59,060 Hank at reasonable Hank com lots of 105 00:05:02,740 --> 00:05:01,310 detailed information there but it's 106 00:05:05,080 --> 00:05:02,750 interesting to me that just the other 107 00:05:08,110 --> 00:05:05,090 day on a local radio station in that 108 00:05:11,500 --> 00:05:08,120 part of the world main FM David thrust 109 00:05:12,910 --> 00:05:11,510 who was the director of the film 110 00:05:16,900 --> 00:05:12,920 festival in question I don't know if he 111 00:05:19,470 --> 00:05:16,910 still lives but he was appeared on this 112 00:05:21,730 --> 00:05:19,480 afternoon I assume a morning chat show 113 00:05:24,520 --> 00:05:21,740 to give his point of view they also 114 00:05:26,560 --> 00:05:24,530 played the entire trailer for vax twitch 115 00:05:28,630 --> 00:05:26,570 was a bit of a free kick for the movie I 116 00:05:30,610 --> 00:05:28,640 suppose but it's interesting because 117 00:05:33,880 --> 00:05:30,620 David thressome made the following 118 00:05:35,890 --> 00:05:33,890 claims on radio which I'd like to 119 00:05:38,770 --> 00:05:35,900 address quickly he said that every 120 00:05:40,540 --> 00:05:38,780 cynical critic of the film that he'd 121 00:05:44,250 --> 00:05:40,550 heard of or read had not actually seen 122 00:05:46,450 --> 00:05:44,260 the film this is of course ridiculous I 123 00:05:49,000 --> 00:05:46,460 for one have SAT through the damn thing 124 00:05:50,950 --> 00:05:49,010 twice we'll get to that in a minute more 125 00:05:53,520 --> 00:05:50,960 importantly our friend David Gorski a 126 00:05:57,160 --> 00:05:53,530 SAT through it and wrote a very good 127 00:05:59,080 --> 00:05:57,170 critique takedown of the movie and i'll 128 00:06:01,810 --> 00:05:59,090 be linking to that in the show notes or 129 00:06:03,910 --> 00:06:01,820 if you go to sciencebase medicine org 130 00:06:05,440 --> 00:06:03,920 you can certainly find it there he also 131 00:06:07,960 --> 00:06:05,450 implies in the interview that the 132 00:06:12,910 --> 00:06:07,970 critics of the film especially here in 133 00:06:15,300 --> 00:06:12,920 Australia had had funding from people 134 00:06:18,670 --> 00:06:15,310 with deep pockets or words that effect 135 00:06:23,200 --> 00:06:18,680 conspiracy theory no shock there and he 136 00:06:26,950 --> 00:06:23,210 also says that the movie is not anti vax 137 00:06:30,430 --> 00:06:26,960 it's only about one vaccine that causes 138 00:06:32,890 --> 00:06:30,440 autism that being the MMR which leads us 139 00:06:35,950 --> 00:06:32,900 to wonder if he himself has really 140 00:06:37,810 --> 00:06:35,960 actually seen the movie or if he did 141 00:06:39,610 --> 00:06:37,820 watch it was he sort of texting or 142 00:06:42,190 --> 00:06:39,620 facebooking at the same time and sort of 143 00:06:44,380 --> 00:06:42,200 missed the key points now as I said I 144 00:06:46,870 --> 00:06:44,390 have seen the movie twice it's available 145 00:06:49,360 --> 00:06:46,880 on YouTube if you really want to have 146 00:06:51,730 --> 00:06:49,370 look for it it's there it's not hiding 147 00:06:54,220 --> 00:06:51,740 it's not secret it's not locked away if 148 00:06:55,620 --> 00:06:54,230 people really want to see it they can 149 00:06:57,970 --> 00:06:55,630 they don't have to go to a film festival 150 00:07:00,340 --> 00:06:57,980 but so do this claim that the movie is 151 00:07:03,670 --> 00:07:00,350 not and Eve acts at 10 minutes 152 00:07:06,760 --> 00:07:03,680 send 23 seconds

158 00:07:21,910 --> 00:07:19,310 they came out of the fever lost speech 159 00:07:24,790 --> 00:07:21,920 lost the ability to walk basically 160 00:07:27,490 --> 00:07:24,800 regressed into what we know as autism 161 00:07:30,850 --> 00:07:27,500 and never came back well the implication 162 00:07:33,360 --> 00:07:30,860 is clear here when he says my child got 163 00:07:36,580 --> 00:07:33,370 a vaccine usually the MMR vaccine 164 00:07:39,520 --> 00:07:36,590 usually meaning of course other vaccines 165 00:07:43,120 --> 00:07:39,530 at 31 minutes and 40 seconds Polly Tommy 166 00:07:46,300

musical brain not a 222 00:10:46,460 --> 00:10:44,520 musical brain but you haven't got a 223 00:10:47,960 --> 00:10:46,470 brain Lynn Kelly it's delightful to see 224 00:10:49,850 --> 00:10:47,970 you once again you're up here in Sydney 225 00:10:53,540 --> 00:10:49,860 to give a talk for the skeptics night 226 00:10:55,280 --> 00:10:53,550 about your latest book very exciting 227 00:10:57,830 --> 00:10:55,290 it's a wonderful book and Wow has it 228 00:11:00,080 --> 00:10:57,840 been creating waves how's that all going 229 00:11:01,910 --> 00:11:00,090 it's going extremely well it's 230 00:11:04,820 --> 00:11:01,920 especially among the science community 231 00:11:07,520 --> 00:11:04,830 but it's already causing quite a stir 232 00:11:08,870 --> 00:11:07,530 and I'm delighted yeah look you're 233 00:11:10,430 --> 00:11:08,880 beaming of course your book is the 234 00:11:13,490 --> 00:11:10,440 memory code how long has that been out 235 00:11:15,110 --> 00:11:13,500 now it's only been out a few months but 236 00:11:16,520 --> 00:11:15,120 it's been in the pipeline I've been 237 00:11:18,500 --> 00:11:16,530 talking to skeptics and having them 238 00:11:21,890 --> 00:11:18,510 polish the theories for nearly 10 years 239 00:11:23,390 --> 00:11:21,900 now so it's lovely to be back among 240 00:11:26,750 --> 00:11:23,400 skeptics again because that's where I 241 00:11:28,250 --> 00:11:26,760 belong you sort of it really takes a big 242 00:11:30,190 --> 00:11:28,260 chunk of your life doesn't it i'm 243 00:11:32,330 --> 00:11:30,200 putting the other such a body of work 244 00:11:34,730 --> 00:11:32,340 this did because it wasn't what I 245 00:11:37,850 --> 00:11:34,740 intended to do I had quite a simple 246 00:11:40,730 --> 00:11:37,860 project for my PhD another science book 247 00:11:42,800 --> 00:11:40,740 and I had no idea that I would stumble 248 00:11:44,930 --> 00:11:42,810 over a new theory for the purpose of 249 00:11:47,180 --> 00:11:44,940 Stonehenge and a new analysis of the way 250 00:11:51,410 --> 00:11:47,190 indigenous cultures memorize information 251 00:11:53,750 --> 00:11:51,420 and that meant partly became a move and 252 00:11:55,970 --> 00:11:53,760 obsession but it meant I had to go down 253 00:11:57,890 --> 00:11:55,980 the formal academic path the formal 254 00:12:00,590 --> 00:11:57,900 academic book before I could go public 255 00:12:01,920 --> 00:12:00,600 because it has to be tested against 256 00:12:03,600 --> 00:12:01,930 other people 257 00:12:06,540 --> 00:12:03,610 yeah well we're talking about standard 258 00:12:07,740 --> 00:12:06,550 scientific skepticism oh absolutely and 259 00:12:10,320 --> 00:12:07,750 if you're going to say I've solved the 260 00:12:12,240 --> 00:12:10,330 mystery of Stonehenge you have to test 261 00:12:14,700 --> 00:12:12,250 have it independently tested because I 262 00:12:16,920 --> 00:12:14,710 was full of self-doubt I mean why would 263 00:12:19,560 --> 00:12:16,930 I have seen something that others hadn't 264 00:12:21,630 --> 00:12:19,570 yeah but the stone Inge and experts say 265 00:12:24,269 --> 00:12:21,640 that's because partly I'm Australia and 266 00:12:26,190 --> 00:12:24,279 we have an indigenous culture to learn 267 00:12:29,040 --> 00:12:26,200 from and secondly because I've got such 268 00:12:30,360 --> 00:12:29,050 a bad natural memory I start ask the 269 00:12:32,880 --> 00:12:30,370 questions will how the hell do they 270 00:12:34,530 --> 00:12:32,890 memorize all this stuff it's a wonderful 271 00:12:36,030 --> 00:12:34,540 point it's a wonderful point and in the 272 00:12:38,820 --> 00:12:36,040 book there's a section where you talk 273 00:12:41,100 --> 00:12:38,830 about memorizing a deck of cards yeah 274 00:12:42,840 --> 00:12:41,110 and that's that seems somewhat is a 275 00:12:45,240 --> 00:12:42,850 parlor trick but it does make a really 276 00:12:47,820 --> 00:12:45,250 good point doesn't it yes if you give a 277 00:12:49,650 --> 00:12:47,830 character to each of the cards then the 278 00:12:51,420 --> 00:12:49,660 parlor trick is a shuffled deck you make 279 00:12:55,410 --> 00:12:51,430 up a story and can remember the order I 280 00:12:57,960 --> 00:12:55,420 can't do anything fast but that my deck 281 00:13:00,329 --> 00:12:57,970 of cards i use two of them 130 cards or 282 00:13:02,010 --> 00:13:00,339 luck so use tarot deck as well gives me 283 00:13:04,290 --> 00:13:02,020 a set of characters and that's what 284 00:13:06,390 --> 00:13:04,300 mythology is is a set of characters 285 00:13:09,300 --> 00:13:06,400 whose stories they act out their 286 00:13:11,519 --> 00:13:09,310 extremely vivid vulgar grotesque over 287 00:13:14,550 --> 00:13:11,529 the top because that makes information 288 00:13:16,620 --> 00:13:14,560 memorable we all remember stories from 289 00:13:18,060 --> 00:13:16,630 childhood all of us remember the story 290 00:13:20,130 --> 00:13:18,070 of Little Red Riding Hood Hansel and 291 00:13:22,230 --> 00:13:20,140 Gretel and the list is endless because 292 00:13:24,329 --> 00:13:22,240 we heard these stories when we were kids 293 00:13:26,670 --> 00:13:24,339 and they stuck and the fact you learned 294 00:13:28,090 --> 00:13:26,680 at school how many do you recall of 295 00:13:31,660 --> 00:13:28,100 those 296 00:13:33,910 --> 00:13:31,670 but if Little Red Riding Hood talked 297 00:13:35,559 --> 00:13:33,920 about I'll get away from the wolf if I 298 00:13:37,990 --> 00:13:35,569 eat the red berry but don't eat the 299 00:13:40,180 --> 00:13:38,000 blackberry because it'll kill you that 300 00:13:43,120 --> 00:13:40,190 sort of thing and that's what mythology 301 00:13:46,030 --> 00:13:43,130 does it encodes rational information in 302 00:13:47,860 --> 00:13:46,040 vivid stories and bad but you you 303 00:13:49,360 --> 00:13:47,870 explain it so wonderfully well and we're 304 00:13:51,790 --> 00:13:49,370 looking forward to the talk tonight of 305 00:13:53,559 --> 00:13:51,800 course and folks coming to skeptics in 306 00:13:55,150 --> 00:13:53,569 the pub here in Sydney on the sixth of 307

00:17:54,390 although having said that once or twice 390 00:17:57,950 --> 00:17:55,980 I will if I think something is 391 00:18:00,350 --> 00:17:57,960 particularly dangerous like people 392 00:18:04,100 --> 00:18:00,360 selling water for sun tan lotion for 393 00:18:05,930 --> 00:18:04,110 example which I've seen again I point 394 00:18:07,669 --> 00:18:05,940 you to the dirty disbelievers it was 395 00:18:10,010 --> 00:18:07,679 only six or seven episodes made and we 396 00:18:12,260 --> 00:18:10,020 had an episode where we called it don't 397 00:18:14,720 --> 00:18:12,270 harsh my mellow man it was all about at 398 00:18:16,490 --> 00:18:14,730 what point do you intervene with people 399 00:18:18,169 --> 00:18:16,500 and I guess if they're people if they're 400 00:18:22,130 --> 00:18:18,179 selling something that's going to cause 401 00:18:24,590 --> 00:18:22,140 cancer yes yeah you have to you have to 402 00:18:27,710 --> 00:18:24,600 realize it by and large arguing with 403 00:18:29,870 --> 00:18:27,720 people at these things is a very little 404 00:18:31,909 --> 00:18:29,880 value but sometimes you have to speak up 405 00:18:33,529 --> 00:18:31,919 absolutely yeah and sometimes you have 406 00:18:35,600 --> 00:18:33,539 to bring extra people in case your 407 00:18:36,980 --> 00:18:35,610 dealings not loud enough we've got two 408

podcasts and stuff but 414 00:18:52,370 --> 00:18:50,789 i think i've had a skeptical nature 415 00:18:54,590 --> 00:18:52,380 since i was young it was encouraged by 416 00:18:56,899 --> 00:18:54,600

00:19:04,370 --> 00:19:01,200 actually and I did believe a lot of the 420 00:19:06,470 --> 00:19:04,380 stuff which I now find laughable and so 421 00:19:10,399 --> 00:19:06,480 it's a lot like one

interests sake we'll see how we go and 439 00:19:45,580 --> 00:19:44,270 watch your bug bear um I've not been to 440 00:19:47,410 --> 00:19:45,590 one of these before and I honestly I'm 441 00:19:48,820 --> 00:19:47,420 not sure what to expect so I'm just 442 00:19:50,500 --> 00:19:48,830 going to kind of take everything in seat 443 00:19:52,180 --> 00:19:50,510 see how things go you're very patient 444 00:19:53,470 --> 00:19:52,190 person do making veiled and put up with 445 00:19:55,260 --> 00:19:53,480 much one hundred percent yeah on a 446 00:19:58,240 --> 00:19:55,270 teacher so I'm very very patient yeah 447 00:19:59,560 --> 00:19:58,250 just want to take it all in I'm excited 448 00:20:01,600 --> 00:19:59,570 to see this blue body that we've just 449 00:20:04,390 --> 00:20:01,610 discovered the teddy bear tell us about 450 00:20:07,330 --> 00:20:04,400 it and teddy bear which apparently can 451 00:20:09,940 --> 00:20:07,340 sense if there's ghosts and talk to them 452 00:20:11,650 --> 00:20:09,950 but I'm not too sure about the details 453 00:20:15,250 --> 00:20:11,660 so I'll go and ask them about that when 454 00:20:16,810 --> 00:20:15,260 we get there I'll of course look I I 455 00:20:18,370 --> 00:20:16,820 don't normally talk to the people who 456 00:20:19,990 --> 00:20:18,380 are getting the psychic readings because 457 00:20:21,070 --> 00:20:20,000 that they tend to be very serious the 458 00:20:22,960 --> 00:20:21,080 people that are go and get psychic 459 00:20:24,880 --> 00:20:22,970 readings so I might stay away from the 460 00:20:25,960 --> 00:20:24,890 Melissa some people that are having a 461 00:20:27,850 --> 00:20:25,970 bit of a giggle and laugh because they 462 00:20:29,560 --> 00:20:27,860 all seem very serious I will probably 463 00:20:31,630 --> 00:20:29,570 spend a bit of time with the sky 464 00:20:33,700 --> 00:20:31,640 watchers the people that have a lot of 465 00:20:35,950 --> 00:20:33,710 time filming with night-vision cameras 466 00:20:37,300 --> 00:20:35,960 at west of sydney and see very 467 00:20:39,160 --> 00:20:37,310 interesting things and also there'll be 468 00:20:41,020 --> 00:20:39,170 a lot of ghost hunters and there were a 469 00:20:42,550 --> 00:20:41,030 lot of technology on sale this you'll 470 00:20:45,130 --> 00:20:42,560 see spirit box have you seen a spirit 471 00:20:47,940 --> 00:20:45,140 box before no what's the spirit box um 472 00:20:51,340 --> 00:20:47,950 it's sort of like a random channel 473 00:20:53,440 --> 00:20:51,350 selector so it'll go up and down the 474 00:20:55,390 --> 00:20:53,450 electromagnetic frequency stopping every 475 00:20:58,930 --> 00:20:55,400 once in a while and making a noise and 476 00:21:00,550 --> 00:20:58,940 you can often um infer some sort of 477 00:21:02,350 --> 00:21:00,560 speech pattern from it because indeed 478 00:21:04,960 --> 00:21:02,360 some of the things that stops on our am 479 00:21:06,460 --> 00:21:04,970 and FM radio stations in fact main are 480 00:21:08,110 --> 00:21:06,470 you and I came across one of these 481 00:21:10,390 --> 00:21:08,120 spirit boxes a couple of years ago when 482 00:21:12,550 --> 00:21:10,400 we did a ghost to it which is a are 483 00:21:13,900 --> 00:21:12,560 which we recorded for the skipping town 484 00:21:16,750 --> 00:21:13,910 but just for the benefit of listeners 485 00:21:40,669 --> 00:21:16,760 right now let me edit in an example of 486 00:21:46,320 --> 00:21:43,890 so there you go it's it's like a radio 487 00:21:49,530 --> 00:21:46,330 which is quickly changing channels um 488 00:21:52,560 --> 00:21:49,540 and I think it would be a quite prone to 489 00:21:55,380 --> 00:21:52,570 audio peridot Leah good old audio 490 00:21:56,490 --> 00:21:55,390 paradorn yes look it up folks hmm so I'm 491 00:21:57,870 --> 00:21:56,500 going to go and check it out there and 492 00:22:00,360 --> 00:21:57,880 I'm hoping that there's some new stuff 493 00:22:01,860 --> 00:22:00,370 there I'm really hoping there's going to 494 00:22:02,940 --> 00:22:01,870 be some new development in the world of 495 00:22:05,130 --> 00:22:02,950 ghost hunting or something like that 496 00:22:07,440 --> 00:22:05,140 what it goes to do you mean yeah that 497 00:22:10,200 --> 00:22:07,450 would be new well the thing is I 498 00:22:12,960 --> 00:22:10,210 actually some of the spirit boxes can 499 00:22:18,600 --> 00:22:12,970 actually they you have a class a or a 500 00:22:22,799 --> 00:22:18,610 Class B C or D EVP electronic voice 501 00:22:24,480 --> 00:22:22,809 phenomenon yeah yeah oh well are you 502 00:22:27,060 --> 00:22:24,490 saying it EVP is not a real thing 503 00:22:28,890 --> 00:22:27,070 Richard are you saying that people in 504 00:22:31,890 --> 00:22:28,900 the other realm that have passed over 505 00:22:34,200 --> 00:22:31,900 can't manipulate the electromagnetic 506 00:22:39,390 --> 00:22:34,210 frequency I don't have to you just said 507 00:22:41,220 --> 00:22:39,400 it I look we haven't even got inside the 508 00:22:43,950 --> 00:22:41,230 powerhouse for the great expo today and 509 00:22:46,890 --> 00:22:43,960 we've already met someone who's okay and 510 00:22:48,660 --> 00:22:46,900 yeah we're talking about EVPs and voice 511 00:22:50,669 --> 00:22:48,670 boxes earlier in the car and you've 512 00:22:52,770 --> 00:22:50,679 actually had a positive experience with 513 00:22:54,930 --> 00:22:52,780 the some other entity would you like to 514 00:22:58,830 --> 00:22:54,940 explain what you got from the spirit box 515 00:23:01,320 --> 00:22:58,840 well i was actually in nevada and we did 516 00:23:04,560 --> 00:23:01,330 we did went to good Springs Nevada where 517 00:23:06,450 --> 00:23:04,570 Carole Lombard used to live with if 518 00:23:10,020 --> 00:23:06,460 anybody realizes she's actually Clark 519 00:23:12,000 --> 00:23:10,030 Gable's wife and she just had a charity 520 00:23:14,760 --> 00:23:12,010 event and they didn't know whether she 521 00:23:17,490 --> 00:23:14,770 wanted to fly home or she wanted to 522 00:23:20,880 --> 00:23:17,500 catch train home and they decided to 523 00:23:21,900 --> 00:23:20,890 toss a toss a coin and they decided that 524 00:23:24,450 --> 00:23:21,910 the plane was way they're going to go 525 00:23:26,190 --> 00:23:24,460 and it was late at night and the plane 526 00:23:29,190 --> 00:23:26,200 crashed into the mountains behind good 527 00:23:31,919 --> 00:23:29,200 Springs Nevada killing on board Carole 528 00:23:34,240 --> 00:23:31,929 Lombard and her mother and cleave in 529 00:23:36,310 --> 00:23:34,250 Clark Gable without a wife 530 00:23:38,230 --> 00:23:36,320 and in this bar in good Springs Nevada 531 00:23:39,550 --> 00:23:38,240 they have a lot of paranormal events 532 00:23:42,070 --> 00:23:39,560 happen in there and they bought out a 533 00:23:44,530 --> 00:23:42,080 voice box and we actually got to talk to 534 00:23:46,840 --> 00:23:44,540 her Carole Lombard came through and was 535 00:23:50,080 --> 00:23:46,850 asking me different questions about who 536 00:23:53,440 --> 00:23:50,090 I was and what my why my voice was funny 537 00:23:54,970 --> 00:23:53,450 because it did not sound normal and she 538 00:23:57,400 --> 00:23:54,980 didn't like me she didn't want to talk 539 00:23:59,830 --> 00:23:57,410 to me and how hard was it to understand 540 00:24:01,210 --> 00:23:59,840 because a spirit box chops and changes a 541 00:24:02,500 --> 00:24:01,220 lot there's a lot of white noise alright 542 00:24:05,310 --> 00:24:02,510 so it was actually quite clear quite 543 00:24:07,630 --> 00:24:05,320 clear and she was quite interesting and 544 00:24:09,310 --> 00:24:07,640 then we had another one come through we 545 00:24:11,560 --> 00:24:09,320 actually had these little boxes that 546 00:24:13,150 --> 00:24:11,570 actually go across and if it goes across 547 00:24:14,770 --> 00:24:13,160 to read it actually has somebody there 548 00:24:16,600 --> 00:24:14,780 and they've actually got one of these 549 00:24:18,700 --> 00:24:16,610 particular entities there we don't sure 550 00:24:20,080 --> 00:24:18,710 who she is she's a lady an old bar maid 551 00:24:22,750 --> 00:24:20,090 that used to come and she didn't like me 552 00:24:24,160 --> 00:24:22,760 she kept moving my glass that the 553 00:24:27,460 --> 00:24:24,170 spirits don't seem to get on with you 554 00:24:29,560 --> 00:24:27,470 well I was Australian there America what 555 00:24:33,220 --> 00:24:29,570 more can you avoid a sound of funny yes 556 00:24:34,960 --> 00:24:33,230 so it was very interesting and quite we 557 00:24:36,490 --> 00:24:34,970 actually went out and we walked through 558 00:24:39,160 --> 00:24:36,500 Goodsprings because it's one of the most 559 00:24:41,560 --> 00:24:39,170 haunted towns in Nevada and got a lot of 560 00:24:43,240 --> 00:24:41,570 orbs coming up and there's actually a 561 00:24:45,690 --> 00:24:43,250 house there that there's a grumpy old 562 00:24:48,520 --> 00:24:45,700 ghost there and he doesn't like people 563 00:24:50,140 --> 00:24:48,530 and have you ever met new spirits to do 564 00:24:51,880 --> 00:24:50,150 seem to get on well with people well 565 00:24:55,240 --> 00:24:51,890 I've actually got a spirit in my house 566 00:24:56,890

actually when I read up on it actually 575 00:25:20,260 --> 00:25:17,330 if it time to text say anonymou Lee as 576 00:25:23,170 --> 00:25:20,270 you would call it it actually asks 577 00:25:26,560 --> 00:25:23,180 questions and who it is and why it's 578 00:25:28,300 --> 00:25:26,570 there mm-hmm so it could be a bit freaky 579 00:25:30,250 --> 00:25:28,310 I mean someone like me I haven't got

--> 00:25:46,950 smell would not be a good thing 589 00:25:52,610 --> 00:25:49,320 well it actually it's really the truth 590 00:25:55,340 --> 00:25:52,620 there is I was in Tasmania on a ghost 591 00:25:57,860 --> 00:25:55,350 tour and we went to go for it yet we 592 00:26:00,080 --> 00:25:57,870 were in the old courthouse and they've 593 00:26:01,700 --> 00:26:00,090 got this room that they all send the 594 00:26:03,649 --> 00:26:01,710 people in to try and scare them first 595 00:26:05,960 --> 00:26:03,659 and I don't fall for those things 596 00:26:07,220 --> 00:26:05,970 anymore and

tools of the ghost hunting 646 00:27:43,519 --> 00:27:42,120 trade here of course there's spirit 647 00:27:46,190 --> 00:27:43,529 boxes over there but there's there's a 648 00:27:47,690 --> 00:27:46,200 laser here that throws that throws down 649 00:27:49,789 --> 00:27:47,700 a bit of a pattern so it's not just a 650 00:27:52,340 --> 00:27:49,799 solid beam how would you describe it um 651 00:27:55,340 --> 00:27:52,350 it's a it's a light beam that gives 652 00:27:58,129 --> 00:27:55,350 dispersed by a lens into a pattern which 653 00:28:00,820 --> 00:27:58,139 you can change and by twisting the low 654 00:28:02,200 --> 00:28:00,830 head on at the end of the of the grid ok 655 00:28:04,570 --> 00:28:02,210 it isn't so how would you use it on a 656 00:28:06,970 --> 00:28:04,580 hunt so you'd sit in a long corridor 657 00:28:09,399 --> 00:28:06,980 long dark corridor at night and you'd 658 00:28:12,460 --> 00:28:09,409 shoot the grid down the corridor and it 659 00:28:15,490 --> 00:28:12,470 will create a grid of lights and if 660 00:28:17,919 --> 00:28:15,500 there's an anomaly or a spirit that can 661 00:28:19,330 --> 00:28:17,929 break the light it'll obviously disrupt 662 00:28:21,250 --> 00:28:19,340 the grid and so you all know that 663 00:28:23,799 --> 00:28:21,260 something is in the space with you if 664 00:28:26,529 --> 00:28:23,809 the grid of the light gets disrupted and 665 00:28:29,019 --> 00:28:26,539 also if you're taking a photo you've 666 00:28:30,960 --> 00:28:29,029 actually got a pattern you've got a 667 00:28:34,990 --> 00:28:30,970 scale to see what how big it is 668 00:28:36,879 --> 00:28:35,000 absolutely yeah yeah yeah of course you 669 00:28:38,560 --> 00:28:36,889 know there's always the odd rogue 670 00:28:42,039 --> 00:28:38,570 skeptic wandering around who we got here 671 00:28:44,620 --> 00:28:42,049 let's split about it Sean odd what is it 672 00:28:46,000 --> 00:28:44,630 what I will I'd know you looking you got 673

different you should send lot of these 679 00:28:57,490 --> 00:28:55,070 things over the years there's not a lot 680 00:28:59,230 --> 00:28:57,500 here that I haven't seen before what I 681

levels are really 798 00:33:17,850 --> 00:33:16,210 got to be jacked up so does that make it 799 00:33:19,590 --> 00:33:17,860 difficult sometimes that would be D 800 00:33:21,510 --> 00:33:19,600 class if it's like that isn't it yeah 801 00:33:23,310 --> 00:33:21,520 absolutely so with the d-class EVP 802 00:33:24,870 --> 00:33:23,320 usually I just chucked those in the bin 803 00:33:26,520 --> 00:33:24,880 it's not even worth the effort if I've 804 00:33:28,740 --> 00:33:26,530 got to like push through all that noise 805 00:33:30,150 --> 00:33:28,750 and you know it's a I didn't really see 806 00:33:32,430 --> 00:33:30,160 it as worth my time and it's a little 807 00:33:34,020 --> 00:33:32,440 bit hard as well just sort of show that 808 00:33:35,310 --> 00:33:34,030 to people who are skeptics you know 809 00:33:36,510 --> 00:33:35,320 nobody's really going to be interested 810 00:33:39,690 --> 00:33:36,520 in something you've had to push so hard 811 00:33:42,090 --> 00:33:39,700 to try and bring out and how do you know 812 00:33:43,560 --> 00:33:42,100 sometimes you aren't experiencing audio 813 00:33:45,120 --> 00:33:43,570 para Dahlia because you're listening to 814 00:33:46,920 --> 00:33:45,130 the same file over and over and over 815 00:33:48,120 --> 00:33:46,930 again it might drive you a bit nutty and 816 00:33:49,650 --> 00:33:48,130 you could imagine you're hearing things 817 00:33:51,570 --> 00:33:49,660 so is it good to get other people in on 818 00:33:53,700 --> 00:33:51,580 sometimes absolutely yeah so when I'm at 819 00:33:55,410 --> 00:33:53,710 home my husband he's also on the team 820 00:33:57,780 --> 00:33:55,420 and I try and get him to have a bit of a 821 00:33:59,610 --> 00:33:57,790 listen as well and afterwards I show my 822 00:34:01,650 --> 00:33:59,620 team trying to everybody's opinion 823 00:34:02,880 --> 00:34:01,660 because there might be a voice or I 824 00:34:04,410 --> 00:34:02,890 might be there just tell me a little bit 825 00:34:06,240 --> 00:34:04,420 weird that night so I always like to get 826 00:34:07,860 --> 00:34:06,250 a second opinion on these things 827 00:34:09,720 --> 00:34:07,870 I'm that the thing that puzzles me is 828 00:34:12,149 --> 00:34:09,730 I'm not is it I guess there's anyone 829 00:34:13,800 --> 00:34:12,159 given an explanation as to how the 830 00:34:16,139 --> 00:34:13,810 mechanism of this recording is happening 831 00:34:17,550 --> 00:34:16,149 or how it's being how the electronic 832 00:34:22,320 --> 00:34:17,560 frequency is being manipulated from 833 00:34:25,139 --> 00:34:22,330 somewhere yes that is a little bit more 834 00:34:26,820 --> 00:34:25,149 sort of in the scientific way of things 835 00:34:28,619 --> 00:34:26,830 that my husband actually has that as a 836 00:34:30,060 --> 00:34:28,629 sort of better understanding of that 837 00:34:31,919 --> 00:34:30,070 side of it than I did like the 838 00:34:33,990 --> 00:34:31,929 explanation of how it works yeah yeah 839 00:34:35,879 --> 00:34:34,000 because I just wonder here if these if 840 00:34:37,680 --> 00:34:35,889 these spirits are in another realm how 841 00:34:40,350 --> 00:34:37,690 do they manipulate the electromagnetic 842 00:34:45,200 --> 00:34:40,360 frequency in our realm well there's the 843 00:34:49,190 --> 00:34:47,659 they affect the magnetic field and 844 00:34:50,869 --> 00:34:49,200 that's how they put the voice on there 845 00:34:53,349 --> 00:34:50,879 there's that eerie there's also the 846 00:34:56,990 --> 00:34:53,359 theory that they use like a Kinesis to 847 00:34:59,510 --> 00:34:57,000 just fiddle with it afterwards they'd 848 00:35:05,060 --> 00:34:59,520 have a psychokinesis same as what a 849 00:35:07,150 --> 00:35:05,070 human would have and in the lab micro PK 850 00:35:10,460 --> 00:35:07,160 has been proven time and time again that 851 00:35:13,380 --> 00:35:10,470 macro not so much and this is more along 852 00:35:18,720 --> 00:35:17,130 oh that's okay but I'm now since you've 853 00:35:19,859 --> 00:35:18,730 been doing this for a while how long 854 00:35:21,839 --> 00:35:19,869 you've been doing the ghost hunting 855 00:35:24,210 --> 00:35:21,849 action um so we've been with this team 856 00:35:25,589 --> 00:35:24,220 for about maybe almost two years now but 857 00:35:28,079 --> 00:35:25,599 we've always been interested in the 858 00:35:29,279 --> 00:35:28,089 paranormal throughout our lives I've got 859 00:35:31,440 --> 00:35:29,289 a bit of a parent all interest myself 860 00:35:32,759 --> 00:35:31,450 but I'm such a scaredy cat that because 861 00:35:35,730 --> 00:35:32,769 this stuff would just really freaked me 862 00:35:37,289 --> 00:35:35,740 out like a but you're working on in an 863 00:35:39,329 --> 00:35:37,299 environment where you potentially 864 00:35:41,819 --> 00:35:39,339 meeting dead people all the time yeah 865 00:35:43,769 --> 00:35:41,829 that's right and I wait liar originally 866 00:35:45,420 --> 00:35:43,779 it did scare me as well I remember one 867 00:35:47,730 --> 00:35:45,430 of my first investigations with the team 868 00:35:50,039 --> 00:35:47,740 my knees were literally shaking but you 869 00:35:51,809 --> 00:35:50,049 do adapt you do learn ways to sort of I 870 00:35:53,519 --> 00:35:51,819 guess spiritually protect yourself and 871 00:35:54,870 --> 00:35:53,529 you gain more confidence in that sense 872 00:35:56,819 --> 00:35:54,880 so it's a little less scary these days 873 00:35:57,809 --> 00:35:56,829 and what it used to be do you think 874 00:36:00,150 --> 00:35:57,819 we've got anything to fear from these 875 00:36:02,430 --> 00:36:00,160 spirits you bumping into I don't think 876 00:36:05,120 --> 00:36:02,440 we've got anything to fear more than 877 00:36:07,049 --> 00:36:05,130 what we'd have to fear from their living 878 00:36:08,640 --> 00:36:07,059 well of course I've been looking around 879 00:36:10,559 --> 00:36:08,650 to try and get my aura cleanse but I 880 00:36:13,170 --> 00:36:10,569 can't get I can't see a clean or a 881 00:36:14,910 --> 00:36:13,180 sponge anywhere but I've got two people 882 00:36:18,150 --> 00:36:14,920 here that we've brought along here that 883 00:36:20,490 --> 00:36:18,160 you both have huge auras although one of 884 00:36:23,640 --> 00:36:20,500 yous brighter than the others yeah 885 00:36:25,499 --> 00:36:23,650 apparently yes I'm we've got a photo of 886 00:36:28,019 --> 00:36:25,509 your or now how was that done this is a 887 00:36:29,789 --> 00:36:28,029 this is amazing yeah he didn't actually 888 00:36:30,990 --> 00:36:29,799 tell us how it was done it just seemed 889 00:36:32,519 --> 00:36:31,000 to be a normal camera was some sort of 890 00:36:34,829 --> 00:36:32,529 attachment on it we also had to put on 891 00:36:37,529 --> 00:36:34,839 hand on I don't even know what it was 892 00:36:39,569 --> 00:36:37,539 but it had little metal plates on it um 893 00:36:40,799 --> 00:36:39,579 and yeah mine wasn't working at first 894 00:36:41,999 --> 00:36:40,809 had to take my hand back off and then 895 00:36:45,029 --> 00:36:42,009 put it back on again and then this photo 896 00:36:48,420 --> 00:36:45,039 just appeared on the screen and did you 897 00:36:50,490 --> 00:36:48,430 get any reading about your order I I'd 898 00:36:52,470 --> 00:36:50,500 say the accuracy kind of fell on a 899 00:36:53,910 --> 00:36:52,480 normal curve some you know some things 900 00:36:55,620 --> 00:36:53,920 in the center just average true of 901 00:36:56,779 --> 00:36:55,630 everyone some things are pretty spot on 902 00:36:59,400 --> 00:36:56,789 and some things with that were 903 00:37:01,200 --> 00:36:59,410 hilariously off base so that was pretty 904 00:37:03,450 --> 00:37:01,210 fun so did they kick it off with a good 905 00:37:04,740 --> 00:37:03,460 starter or did they say something really 906 00:37:08,039 --> 00:37:04,750 like you actually a man or something 907 00:37:13,799 --> 00:37:11,819 I sensor you actually met no no no 908 00:37:15,959 --> 00:37:13,809 weren't reaching too far all you know a 909 00:37:17,400 --> 00:37:15,969 lot of is it Barnum statements that's 910 00:37:19,319 --> 00:37:17,410 true of everybody yes Barnum statements 911 00:37:20,640 --> 00:37:19,329 thank you that's what it was and how do 912 00:37:22,469 --> 00:37:20,650 you reckon the colors difference between 913 00:37:24,329 --> 00:37:22,479 you like your auras really read yours is 914 00:37:26,249 --> 00:37:24,339 kind of a bit of a Paley mine's kind of 915 00:37:27,870 --> 00:37:26,259 ready orange apparently it means I'm 916 00:37:29,819 --> 00:37:27,880 very physical which is totally not true 917 00:37:34,199 --> 00:37:29,829 anyone who knows me knows that I am so 918 00:37:36,269 --> 00:37:34,209 lazy so yeah that one not so much okay 919 00:37:38,789 --> 00:37:36,279 and how does your reading stack up 920 00:37:42,179 --> 00:37:38,799 accuracy was I thought it was pretty 921 00:37:43,589 --> 00:37:42,189 accurate um again I got the red as well 922 00:37:45,329 --> 00:37:43,599 so the physical and energetic thing 923 00:37:47,400

00:37:51,870 --> 00:37:50,410 that ended up to be quite accurate as 927 00:37:53,910 --> 00:37:51,880 well I was trying very hard not to give 928 00:37:55,499 --> 00:37:53,920 him anything from my end but he does 929 00:37:56,910 --> 00:37:55,509 then ask a couple of direct questions so 930 00:37:57,929 --> 00:37:56,920 I had to sort of answer them but yeah I 931 00:37:59,880 --> 00:37:57,939

interesting before we did the interview 1064 00:43:29,650 --> 00:43:28,550 I gave them a skeptic zone card and they 1065 00:43:32,560 --> 00:43:29,660 just looked at it and laughed it was 1066 00:43:35,200 --> 00:43:32,570 just um use meant to them they couldn't 1067 00:43:36,460 --> 00:43:35,210 believe it on ironically enough and then 1068 00:43:38,350 --> 00:43:36,470 after they told you all about the 1069 00:43:40,330 --> 00:43:38,360 crystal bed I gave them a skeptics 1070 00:43:42,010 --> 00:43:40,340 $100,000 challenge I said if anything 1071 00:43:44,230 --> 00:43:42,020 you tell

00:43:48,410 disconnect they can't understand it they 1075 00:43:52,960 --> 00:43:50,390 can't understand it look I imagine like 1076 00:43:55,570 --> 00:43:52,970 I like a lot of people do that they view 1077 00:43:58,630 --> 00:43:55,580 skeptics as being debunkers and poo poo 1078 00:44:00,250 --> 00:43:58,640 is in kind of negative folk I'm sure 1079 00:44:05,260 --> 00:44:00,260 you're right but it's also coupled with 1080 00:44:07,420 --> 00:44:05,270 the fact to them a chakra is just as 1081 00:44:10,600 --> 00:44:07,430 real as well the microphone you're using 1082 00:44:12,790 --> 00:44:10,610 now is to us it's part of reality so for 1083 00:44:15,820 --> 00:44:12,800 someone to come along and say I don't 1084 00:44:17,280 --> 00:44:15,830 think it's real at all is simply almost 1085 00:44:20,100 --> 00:44:17,290 incomprehensible 1086 00:44:22,620 --> 00:44:20,110 well it's very spiritual here today it 1087 00:44:24,750 --> 00:44:22,630 like but not in a religious way like 1088 00:44:27,210 --> 00:44:24,760 there's lots of people feeling about 1089 00:44:29,070 --> 00:44:27,220 their vibrations and and and talking 1090 00:44:31,410 --> 00:44:29,080 about things that you can't quite put 1091 00:44:33,180 --> 00:44:31,420 your finger on yeah I always wonder 1092 00:44:35,490 --> 00:44:33,190 about the word spiritual I just think it 1093 00:44:37,530 --> 00:44:35,500 just means emotional as the closest I 1094 00:44:39,180 --> 00:44:37,540 can come do it people oh this is a very 1095 00:44:40,530 --> 00:44:39,190 spiritual person I mean what they have 1096 00:44:42,240 --> 00:44:40,540 strong emotions about things that's 1097 00:44:44,370 --> 00:44:42,250 about as close as I can come to it but 1098 00:44:46,440 --> 00:44:44,380 it is that it is an emotion because as 1099 00:44:48,510 --> 00:44:46,450 Carl Sagan said you can get a spiritual 1100 00:44:50,190 --> 00:44:48,520 feeling looking at the sky at night you 1101 00:44:52,320 -->

00:49:01,119 the Big Chief pipe we are we are because 1221 00:49:08,520 --> 00:49:03,520 she lurched of pipe that's it that's 1222 00:49:10,710 --> 00:49:08,530 right I was a lot of happy smiling faces 1223 00:49:13,740 --> 00:49:10,720 here in the car because we had a big day 1224 00:49:15,780 --> 00:49:13,750 at the paranormal expert kuchulu we've 1225 00:49:18,150 --> 00:49:15,790 we've just departed to where the world's 1226 00:49:20,579 --> 00:49:18,160 biggest chief pipe is just the side of 1227 00:49:22,349 --> 00:49:20,589 the Casilla powerhouse there and we've 1228 00:49:25,530 --> 00:49:22,359 all had a good day now what what's been 1229 00:49:27,710 --> 00:49:25,540 your favorite part of the day Oh getting 1230 00:49:30,329 --> 00:49:27,720 the aura photography that's pretty great 1231 00:49:33,089 --> 00:49:30,339 and as you said earlier it was pretty 1232 00:49:34,890 --> 00:49:33,099 much fifty percent wrong yep pretty 1233 00:49:37,349 --> 00:49:34,900 pretty much on average some stuff that 1234 00:49:39,690 --> 00:49:37,359 was on the mark but mostly it just felt 1235 00:49:41,069 --> 00:49:39,700 like he was kind of you know throwing 1236 00:49:43,410 --> 00:49:41,079 out things and hoping some of them are 1237 00:49:45,599 --> 00:49:43,420 gonna hit oh ok what's that's my theory 1238 00:49:47,579 --> 00:49:45,609 of dating but yes I don't know if it 1239 00:49:49,650 --> 00:49:47,589 works actually for though also probably 1240 00:49:51,870 --> 00:49:49,660 does work for readings as well what was 1241 00:49:54,089 --> 00:49:51,880 your favourite bit of the day mine was 1242 00:49:56,339 --> 00:49:54,099 the same unfortunately I very much 1243 00:49:57,780 --> 00:49:56,349 enjoyed that very much being in enjoy 1244 00:50:00,450 --> 00:49:57,790 being told that my checkers were the 1245 00:50:02,190 --> 00:50:00,460 best that he's seen all day um yeah and 1246 00:50:03,750 --> 00:50:02,200 I think mine was more accurate mine was 1247 00:50:05,400 --> 00:50:03,760 a more accurate reading yeah things 1248 00:50:07,800 --> 00:50:05,410 trying to butter you up by to get the 1249 00:50:09,750 --> 00:50:07,810 praising your chakra quite possibly yet 1250 00:50:12,660 --> 00:50:09,760 I had I did tell him that I just ended a 1251 00:50:15,690 --> 00:50:12,670 relationship so yeah so did that affect 1252 00:50:16,829 --> 00:50:15,700 the chakra at all I'm the checker thing 1253 00:50:18,210 --> 00:50:16,839 was at the start that was actually quite 1254 00:50:19,269 --> 00:50:18,220 needy and I was being quite careful not 1255 00:50:21,609 --> 00:50:19,279 to give him away 1256 00:50:23,049 --> 00:50:21,619 not to give him information yeah C maybe 1257 00:50:24,189 --> 00:50:23,059 you know when going through the 1258 00:50:25,630 --> 00:50:24,199 difficulties of the end of a 1259 00:50:27,789 --> 00:50:25,640 relationship surely your chakras 1260 00:50:30,969 --> 00:50:27,799 wouldn't be doing so well but maybe 1261 00:50:32,620 --> 00:50:30,979 maybe this means it's right for you yeah 1262 00:50:34,419 --> 00:50:32,630 he said it was energy that I can be 1263 00:50:38,620 --> 00:50:34,429 using to change my life for the better 1264 00:50:40,809 --> 00:50:38,630 so energy available there to use okay 1265 00:50:46,120 --> 00:50:40,819 but but he said that after you'd given 1266 00:50:48,069 --> 00:50:46,130 the relationship information um yes yeah 1267 00:50:50,279 --> 00:50:48,079 I'm just remember that's a post diction 1268 00:50:52,899 --> 00:50:50,289 not a prediction yes yes that is correct 1269 00:50:54,279 --> 00:50:52,909 okay well this is something you really 1270 00:50:55,390 --> 00:50:54,289 expected to see there that you have 1271 00:50:58,390 --> 00:50:55,400 missed out on is there something you 1272 00:51:00,489 --> 00:50:58,400 really hope to see I like the the color 1273 00:51:02,829 --> 00:51:00,499 readings where the woman who was doing 1274 00:51:04,929 --> 00:51:02,839 the color readings by figuring out what 1275 00:51:08,769 --> 00:51:04,939 colors you into she could tell your 1276 00:51:10,569 --> 00:51:08,779 future using colors no I don't think 1277 00:51:12,489 --> 00:51:10,579 there was anything else no there was 1278 00:51:14,409 --> 00:51:12,499 that the color eating thing I'm I was 1279 00:51:15,309 --> 00:51:14,419 kind of interested in having a guy that 1280 00:51:16,509 --> 00:51:15,319 though because we'd already done the 1281 00:51:17,769 --> 00:51:16,519 aura thing i thought i'll give it a miss 1282 00:51:20,919 --> 00:51:17,779 this time but what was it about the 1283 00:51:23,049 --> 00:51:20,929 green oh yes having a pretty early oh 1284 00:51:25,239 --> 00:51:23,059 yeah so she was talking about the 1285 00:51:26,589 --> 00:51:25,249 different bottles and how they have 1286 00:51:29,109 --> 00:51:26,599 different colors in them and you rub 1287 00:51:30,399 --> 00:51:29,119 them onto your person but use them for 1288 00:51:33,099 --> 00:51:30,409 different things so if you are having an 1289 00:51:35,229 --> 00:51:33,109 i quote green related problems you would 1290 00:51:37,659 --> 00:51:35,239 use one of the green color solutions and 1291 00:51:46,209 --> 00:51:37,669 we just came away thinking what a green 1292 00:51:50,439 --> 00:51:46,219 related yeah I'm gardening um and and if 1293 00:51:52,809 --> 00:51:50,449 if you do if you think you have a gram 1294 00:51:54,549 --> 00:51:52,819 related problem and you use the green 1295 00:51:58,179 --> 00:51:54,559 lotion and you've actually got a blue 1296 00:52:00,519 --> 00:51:58,189 related problem what happens and what if 1297 00:52:02,589 --> 00:52:00,529 you're colorblind exactly little stuff 1298 00:52:04,359 --> 00:52:02,599 in questions we should have asked yeah 1299 00:52:06,159 --> 00:52:04,369 the only thing I was disappointed was 1300 00:52:07,539 --> 00:52:06,169 that there weren't more skywatchers II 1301 00:52:08,979 --> 00:52:07,549 because it was two or three groups last 1302 00:52:11,019 --> 00:52:08,989 time there was only one there this time 1303 00:52:13,359 --> 00:52:11,029 but I had a good chat and I learned 1304 00:52:15,880 --> 00:52:13,369 about a very famous UFO case called the 1305 00:52:19,689 --> 00:52:15,890 all thing to know that case I think 1306 00:52:22,599 --> 00:52:19,699 which has five minutes of film multiple 1307 00:52:23,949 --> 00:52:22,609 witnesses and it happened in 1999's and 1308 00:52:25,659 --> 00:52:23,959 I was reading up on that so read up 1309 00:52:27,670 --> 00:52:25,669 right up on the novak case people see 1310 00:52:29,530 --> 00:52:27,680 what you think and Richard where 1311 00:52:31,150 --> 00:52:29,540 did you fit with these things I you did 1312

but you didn't say 1315 00:52:40,089 --> 00:52:38,809 anything you didn't get up and pull your 1316 00:52:41,470 --> 00:52:40,099 jacket over your head and walk out 1317 00:52:44,319 --> 00:52:41,480
