00:03:37,800 --> 00:03:35,590 finished the last episode moments ago 62 00:03:39,420 --> 00:03:37,810 before we hopped on here so this is 63 00:03:42,030 --> 00:03:39,430 fresh in my mind it's gonna be really 64 00:03:44,550 --> 00:03:42,040 hard my first question for both of you 65 00:03:46,590 --> 00:03:44,560 Greg let's start with you um how has it 66 00:03:48,449 --> 00:03:46,600 been received so far I know it's only 67 00:03:52,170 --> 00:03:48,459 been a couple days but what's the 68 00:03:55,520 --> 00:03:52,180 feedback been like in relation to just 69 00:03:58,830 --> 00:03:55,530 everything ah man unbelievable 70 00:04:01,110 --> 00:03:58,840 completely unexpected I mean we here's 71 00:04:03,180 --> 00:04:01,120 the thing I mean we we knew it was good 72 00:04:06,510 --> 00:04:03,190 we thought it was good of course we're 73 00:04:07,920 --> 00:04:06,520 always gonna think it was good and we 74 00:04:09,990 --> 00:04:07,930 it was gonna have a really great 75 00:04:14,220 --> 00:04:10,000 response but we are absolutely blown 76 00:04:16,380 --> 00:04:14,230 away I'm stunned frankly at how 77 00:04:19,170 --> 00:04:16,390 well-received it's been because there's 78 00:04:20,910 --> 00:04:19,180 some there's some weird ideas in there 79 00:04:24,330 --> 00:04:20,920 and some things you don't normally get 80 00:04:27,570 --> 00:04:24,340 to see on TV shows like this so to see 81 00:04:30,540 --> 00:04:27,580 it be it's really really embraced this 82 00:04:33,420 --> 00:04:30,550 weekend in its launch weekend you know 83 00:04:35,670 --> 00:04:33,430 was trending on Amazon Prime's trending 84 00:04:38,310 --> 00:04:35,680 TV it's still trending and I think in 85 00:04:41,160 --> 00:04:38,320 fact Connor if I'm correct yeah it is I 86 00:04:44,220 --> 00:04:41,170 know yes I just checked like an hour ago 87 00:04:46,380 --> 00:04:44,230 still they're still growing so that's 88 00:04:48,060 --> 00:04:46,390 got to be an incredible feeling Connor 89 00:04:50,280 --> 00:04:48,070 what do you think man how has it been so 90 00:04:52,950 --> 00:04:50,290 far this is sort of your your first dive 91 00:04:54,900 --> 00:04:52,960 into the world of of Hellyer with these 92 00:04:56,730 --> 00:04:54,910 guys I mean you were you did season one 93 00:05:00,300 --> 00:04:56,740 as well but this is a whole other level 94 00:05:02,010 --> 00:05:00,310 I would imagine it is and I am so proud 95 00:05:04,590 --> 00:05:02,020 that it's being received the way it was 96 00:05:07,290 --> 00:05:04,600 you know we were pretty I'd like to 97 00:05:10,080 --> 00:05:07,300 think fairly knowledgeable in season one 98 00:05:11,730 --> 00:05:10,090 but we were stumbling around a lot then 99 00:05:13,680 --> 00:05:11,740 and really if you think about it it was 100 00:05:15,950 --> 00:05:13,690 filmed over a pretty condensed period of 101 00:05:19,770 --> 00:05:15,960 time a much shorter period of time 102 00:05:22,380 --> 00:05:19,780 season 2 just took place over you know 103 00:05:24,270 --> 00:05:22,390 15 entire months and we and we really 104 00:05:26,550 --> 00:05:24,280 sat and we dug into the research really 105 00:05:28,710 --> 00:05:26,560 hard we were nervous that people were 106 00:05:31,680 --> 00:05:28,720 going to be thrown off or confused 107 00:05:33,180 --> 00:05:31,690 because hey we're confused but that's 108 00:05:35,010 --> 00:05:33,190 that's part of the beauty of it and 109 00:05:37,710 --> 00:05:35,020 people are accepting it and loving it 110 00:05:39,450 --> 00:05:37,720 and we just were just beaming from from 111 00:05:41,820 --> 00:05:39,460 ear to ear at these last three days man 112 00:05:44,880 --> 00:05:41,830 that's amazing I mean you mentioned 113 00:05:46,530 --> 00:05:44,890 stumble and that's a really good way to 114 00:05:49,140 --> 00:05:46,540 look at something like what you guys are 115 00:05:50,910 --> 00:05:49,150 doing I mean this isn't some scripted 116 00:05:53,220 --> 00:05:50,920 reality show where you've got this 117 00:05:55,590 --> 00:05:53,230 structure of how the first second and 118 00:05:58,050 --> 00:05:55,600 third act are gonna play out I mean you 119 00:06:00,630 --> 00:05:58,060 guys literally filmed things as they 120 00:06:02,670 --> 00:06:00,640 were happening and this is completely 121 00:06:04,560 --> 00:06:02,680 different for most paranormal television 122 00:06:07,170 --> 00:06:04,570 we're used to seeing where you're kind 123 00:06:09,000 --> 00:06:07,180 to know kind of like a you know a police 124 00:06:10,890 --> 00:06:09,010 procedural how everything's gonna pan 125 00:06:12,480 --> 00:06:10,900 out we're gonna we're gonna hear about a 126 00:06:14,100 --> 00:06:12,490 ghost we're gonna figure out who the 127 00:06:15,720 --> 00:06:14,110 ghost is we're gonna figure out what the 128 00:06:17,600 --> 00:06:15,730 ghost has to say to you and that's kind 129 00:06:21,399 --> 00:06:17,610 of a you know and 130 00:06:24,589 --> 00:06:21,409 is something completely next-level and I 131 00:06:26,779 --> 00:06:24,599 remember Carl was in New York City here 132 00:06:29,089 --> 00:06:26,789 maybe a few months ago and I was talking 133 00:06:30,800 --> 00:06:29,099 to him this is just after the first 134 00:06:32,390 --> 00:06:30,810 season had sort of wrapped and I'm like 135 00:06:34,520 --> 00:06:32,400 is there gonna be a season two and 136 00:06:36,020 --> 00:06:34,530 what's it gonna be about and I just 137 00:06:39,879 --> 00:06:36,030 remember he shook his head and he looked 138 00:06:44,809 --> 00:06:42,920 so yeah that was exciting when I knew 139 00:06:47,719 --> 00:06:44,819 that you guys were not done with this 140 00:06:50,749 --> 00:06:47,729 because clearly the phenomena was not 141 00:06:52,909 --> 00:06:50,759 done with you guys so I guess sort of to 142 00:06:55,670 --> 00:06:52,919 to catch people up could one of you 143 00:06:57,860 --> 00:06:55,680 maybe explain to us sort of the origin 144 00:07:01,339 --> 00:06:57,870 story of Hellyer I know that's a huge 145 00:07:03,140 --> 00:07:01,349 broad spectrum question but what what 146 00:07:04,909 --> 00:07:03,150 would what did the first season sort of 147 00:07:07,519 --> 00:07:04,919 encapsulate for you guys to kind of 148 00:07:09,769 --> 00:07:07,529 propel us into season two Greg maybe 149 00:07:13,850 --> 00:07:09,779 let's start with you the short story is 150 00:07:16,279 --> 00:07:13,860 in 2012 I got an email from a guy who 151 00:07:18,230 --> 00:07:16,289 said that there were goblins he didn't 152 00:07:19,670 --> 00:07:18,240 use the word goblins but there were 153 00:07:20,420 --> 00:07:19,680 little creatures coming out of a 154 00:07:22,790 --> 00:07:20,430 mineshaft 155 00:07:24,890 --> 00:07:22,800 on the edge of his property and they 156 00:07:27,589 --> 00:07:24,900 were scaring his kids they were stealing 157 00:07:30,170 --> 00:07:27,599 stuff out of his shed they were they

time just the 161 00:07:38,180 --> 00:07:36,930 nature of what we do and I thought well 162 00:07:39,260 --> 00:07:38,190 I was just somebody screwing around they 163 00:07:42,320 --> 00:07:39,270

typical paranormal fashion very 175 00:08:07,490 --> 00:08:04,379 out-of-focus blurry photographs that he 176 00:08:09,709 --> 00:08:07,500 says are of the creatures and you know 177 00:08:11,450 --> 00:08:09,719 the photographs of the prints were 178 00:08:13,760 --> 00:08:11,460 enough to get me excited about it 179 00:08:15,379 --> 00:08:13,770 because you know these you know sending 180 00:08:17,390 --> 00:08:15,389 it to the first people I could think of 181 00:08:19,939 --> 00:08:17,400 who knew anything about weird footprints 182 00:08:21,920 --> 00:08:19,949 were Bigfoot hunters

--> 00:08:44,300 did you why'd you stop you know Helier 192 00:08:50,230 --> 00:08:48,139 was a symptom and the only reference I 193 00:08:54,790 --> 00:08:50,240 can find of this guy is in a really 194 00:08:57,389 --> 00:08:54,800 obscure book by Allan Greenfield ritual 195 00:08:59,889 --> 00:08:57,399 magician and you'll follow gist who 196 00:09:03,210 --> 00:08:59,899 interviews Terry wrists in the appendix 197 00:09:06,370 --> 00:09:03,220 of his book which is all about summoning 198 00:09:08,199 --> 00:09:06,380 extraterrestrial creatures and repelling 199 00:09:11,519 --> 00:09:08,209 extraterrestrial creatures via ritual 200 00:09:13,960 --> 00:09:11,529 magic really strange stuff that a not 201 00:09:15,340 --> 00:09:13,970 not the type of stuff that I dabbled in 202 00:09:17,530 --> 00:09:15,350 back then I was a ghost hunter back then 203 00:09:21,220 --> 00:09:17,540 so it just made the whole thing weirder 204 00:09:22,629 --> 00:09:21,230 and then the case just sort of sat until 205 00:09:25,600 --> 00:09:22,639 Dana and I ended up moving to the States 206 00:09:27,670 --> 00:09:25,610 and decided to go check out Helier the 207 00:09:29,800 --> 00:09:27,680 town where this all happened and when we 208 00:09:31,900 --> 00:09:29,810 were there the town had a weird feel 209 00:09:34,480 --> 00:09:31,910 there were people who had weird stories 210 00:09:36,400 --> 00:09:34,490 we ended up going and driving around and 211 00:09:37,540 --> 00:09:36,410 we found a house that looked so much 212 00:09:38,980 --> 00:09:37,550 like it could have been the place that 213 00:09:42,639 --> 00:09:38,990 this happened this could have been this 214 00:09:46,030 --> 00:09:42,649 David's house it hit all the the boxes 215 00:09:48,069 --> 00:09:46,040 and then we got super busy after that we 216 00:09:49,660 --> 00:09:48,079 meant to go back and follow up and and 217 00:09:51,819 --> 00:09:49,670 see what was going on but we ended up 218 00:09:52,210 --> 00:09:51,829 going and doing an episode of Finding 219 00:09:53,920 --> 00:09:52,220 Bigfoot 220 00:09:56,800 --> 00:09:53,930 and then our careers just kind of popped 221 00:09:59,889 --> 00:09:56,810 off and so we never went back years 222 00:10:02,620 --> 00:09:59,899 later Carl here's a interview with Jim 223 00:10:04,540 --> 00:10:02,630 Perry actually me talking about this 224 00:10:06,100 --> 00:10:04,550 case and he experienced all these 225 00:10:08,530 --> 00:10:06,110 synchronicities with it and he contacted 226 00:10:09,129 --> 00:10:08,540 me and said I think we're supposed to do 227 00:10:10,389 --> 00:10:09,139 this man 228 00:10:13,090 --> 00:10:10,399 I think we're supposed to go follow up 229 00:10:14,230 --> 00:10:13,100 on this which I

00:11:27,770 suspect number one just suddenly being 258 00:11:33,910 --> 00:11:31,640 like oh wait no this this guy this 259 00:11:37,330 --> 00:11:33,920 figure that Allen Greenfield knew this 260 00:11:39,310 --> 00:11:37,340 tarry wrist we think was actually a real 261 00:11:40,270 --> 00:11:39,320 person you know a bit of a spoiler there 262 00:11:44,230 --> 00:11:40,280 but we're sitting there and it's like 263 00:11:46,540 --> 00:11:44,240 well hold on what canal and Greenfield 264 00:11:49,750 --> 00:11:46,550 tell us what does he know what was he on 265 00:11:52,510 --> 00:11:49,760 to back then and where can we sort of 266 00:11:54,820 --> 00:11:52,520 continue that work you know yeah yeah I 267 00:11:56,260 --> 00:11:54,830 mean when when you guys brought up the 268 00:11:58,180 --> 00:11:56,270 fact that Terry risks might be an actual 269 00:12:01,260 --> 00:11:58,190 person like I got goosebumps 270 00:12:03,180 --> 00:12:01,270 because then it's like this this um 271 00:12:07,480 --> 00:12:03,190 omnipresent sort of metaphor 272 00:12:10,270 --> 00:12:07,490 metaphorical figure that I also was 273 00:12:13,720 --> 00:12:10,280 convinced was Allen Greenfield I mean 274 00:12:15,970 --> 00:12:13,730 the guy is just a walking enigma I've 275 00:12:18,190 --> 00:12:15,980 had you know brief encounters with him 276 00:12:20,830 --> 00:12:18,200 it came with when I bought secrets i 277 00:12:22,900 --> 00:12:20,840 from view for nods my first copy of it 278 00:12:25,120 --> 00:12:22,910 and I I don't think I've ever told you 279 00:12:27,520 --> 00:12:25,130 guys this story I told Carl but when I 280 00:12:30,280 --> 00:12:27,530 got the book straight from Greenfield 281 00:12:33,010 --> 00:12:30,290 mind you I open it up in the first 282 00:12:36,040 --> 00:12:33,020 couple pages they're literally printed 283 00:12:38,140 --> 00:12:36,050 like diagonal on the page like they're 284 00:12:40,960 --> 00:12:38,150 shooting off the page I can't see how 285 00:12:42,550 --> 00:12:40,970 the text and I'm like what what is this 286 00:12:44,860 --> 00:12:42,560 like there must have been like a mixup 287 00:12:46,840 --> 00:12:44,870 with the printer or whatever and I'm 288 00:12:50,110 --> 00:12:46,850 going through the book and it's just 289 00:12:52,870 --> 00:12:50,120 sporadic pages throughout that had like 290 00:12:55,510 --> 00:12:52,880 this weird diagonal print so I'm missing 291 00:12:56,079 --> 00:12:55,520 half the text of the book and I call my 292 00:12:56,940 --> 00:12:56,089 father 293 00:12:59,129 --> 00:12:56,950 who 294 00:13:01,650 --> 00:12:59,139 been in the printing business for almost 295 00:13:04,050 --> 00:13:01,660 got 30 years now I'm like is this like 296 00:13:06,180 --> 00:13:04,060 it's it's diagonal on the page but then 297 00:13:10,079 --> 00:13:06,190 the next page isn't and this one like 298 00:13:12,240 --> 00:13:10,089 three pages more in is and he just told 299 00:13:14,639 --> 00:13:12,250 me like that's highly unusual that 300 00:13:17,220 --> 00:13:14,649 should not happen it's you know it would 301 00:13:18,660 --> 00:13:17,230 either be the entire text or like you 302 00:13:20,519 --> 00:13:18,670 know just the first page until they 303 00:13:22,530 --> 00:13:20,529 figure it out so I tried to contact 304 00:13:24,900 --> 00:13:22,540 Greenfield to be like look dude you sent 305 00:13:27,060 --> 00:13:24,910 me a faulty book and I never heard 306 00:13:29,790 --> 00:13:27,070 anything back from him so that was kind 307 00:13:35,189 --> 00:13:29,800 of my weird introduction to his work is 308 00:13:37,319 --> 00:13:35,199 I wanted to read it but I could not oh I 309 00:13:38,699 --> 00:13:37,329 don't know I don't know what to make of 310 00:13:40,590 --> 00:13:38,709 all that but um 311 00:13:42,960 --> 00:13:40,600 yeah Greg what what did you walk away 312 00:13:46,050 --> 00:13:42,970 after this season thinking of mr. 313 00:13:48,509 --> 00:13:46,060 Greenfield oh I I'm in love with him now 314 00:13:51,600 --> 00:13:48,519 I think he's great yeah he he is so 315 00:13:54,990 --> 00:13:51,610 funny because we like Connor said we had 316 00:13:56,370 --> 00:13:55,000 a very distinct opinion of him before we 317 00:13:57,870 --> 00:13:56,380 ended up going and I mean I had to email 318 00:14:00,389 --> 00:13:57,880 him back and forth and he's just you 319 00:14:03,990 --> 00:14:00,399 know he's very enigmatic he's an 320 00:14:06,210 --> 00:14:04,000 enigmatic guy and we had built up this 321 00:14:09,420 --> 00:14:06,220 idea in our heads of this guy who's this 322 00:14:12,360 --> 00:14:09,430 ritual magician and he's very mysterious 323 00:14:14,939 --> 00:14:12,370 and we go to meet him and the dude shows 324 00:14:17,130 --> 00:14:14,949 up in like a Hawaiian shirt and just 325 00:14:19,590 --> 00:14:17,140 proceeds through dinner to just blast 326 00:14:22,280 --> 00:14:19,600 out all these opinions that we had of 327 00:14:25,920 --> 00:14:22,290 him and was exceedingly exceedingly 328 00:14:27,540 --> 00:14:25,930 helpful and you know like like Connor 329 00:14:29,790 --> 00:14:27,550 said we've still been in contact with 330 00:14:32,400 --> 00:14:29,800 him you know he he offers up his 331 00:14:34,050 --> 00:14:32,410 thoughts on things and he's been 332 00:14:37,230 --> 00:14:34,060 extremely helpful and I think this is 333 00:14:39,509 --> 00:14:37,240 the cool thing is I don't think that our 334 00:14:42,420 --> 00:14:39,519 experience with him is very unique to us 335 00:14:45,449 --> 00:14:42,430 I think that a lot of people feel the 336 00:14:48,569 --> 00:14:45,459 same way about some of these big figures 337 00:14:50,870 --> 00:14:48,579 in old-school UF ology or or you know 338 00:14:53,670 --> 00:14:50,880 paranormal research or parapsychology or 339 00:14:55,680 --> 00:14:53,680 cryptozoology or whatever and so because 340 00:14:58,650 --> 00:14:55,690 of that they they sort of keep their 341 00:15:00,870 --> 00:14:58,660 distance but one of the things I hope 342 00:15:03,990 --> 00:15:00,880 people take out of Helier we interview a 343 00:15:07,079 --> 00:15:04,000 lot of people and it was not hard to do 344 00:15:08,930 --> 00:15:07,089 that all we had to do is ask and we got 345 00:15:10,079 --> 00:15:08,940 to go and sit and get this information 346 00:15:12,629 --> 00:15:10,089 director 347 00:15:14,850 --> 00:15:12,639 these people who strangely enough 348 00:15:18,509 --> 00:15:14,860 there's like nobody talking to it's 349 00:15:21,989 --> 00:15:18,519 really weird that is a very good point I 350 00:15:23,939 --> 00:15:21,999 think there is this sort of lying in the 351 00:15:26,220 --> 00:15:23,949 sand between the quote unquote new 352 00:15:29,309 --> 00:15:26,230 garner old guard of any of this ufology 353 00:15:32,040 --> 00:15:29,319 cryptozoology I feel like the younger 354 00:15:33,689 --> 00:15:32,050 people getting involved are intimidated 355 00:15:36,829 --> 00:15:33,699 to say the least I mean you look at 356 00:15:39,299 --> 00:15:36,839 these these drug or not steel and in 357 00:15:42,150 --> 00:15:39,309 Greenfield and all these old school 358 00:15:43,949 --> 00:15:42,160 researchers who went out there did the 359 00:15:46,379 --> 00:15:43,959 work boots on the ground travel the 360 00:15:49,710 --> 00:15:46,389 country interviewed people yeah made 361 00:15:51,660 --> 00:15:49,720 connections and you look today and a lot 362 00:15:53,549 --> 00:15:51,670 of the work that we do the younger 363 00:15:57,780 --> 00:15:53,559 generation is by the click of a few 364 00:16:00,720 --> 00:15:57,790 keystrokes so I'm not saying that's a 365 00:16:03,030 --> 00:16:00,730 bad thing no no no no there's room 366 00:16:05,040 --> 00:16:03,040 there's room for that for sure but there 367 00:16:07,559 --> 00:16:05,050 are certain things we've learned this 368 00:16:09,239 --> 00:16:07,569 firsthand through Hellyer there are 369 00:16:11,369 --> 00:16:09,249 certain things that you just cannot 370 00:16:14,610 --> 00:16:11,379 understand or have context for unless 371 00:16:16,410 --> 00:16:14,620 you just boots on the ground go go and 372 00:16:18,629 --> 00:16:16,420 do the interview go to that place feel 373 00:16:21,449 --> 00:16:18,639 what that place feels like see that 374 00:16:22,590 --> 00:16:21,459 Street and try and remember or think 375 00:16:25,889 --> 00:16:22,600 about how that Street would have looked 376 00:16:29,340 --> 00:16:25,899 when these events took place and I think 377 00:16:31,410 --> 00:16:29,350 it's gotten too easy to not do that now 378 00:16:34,079 --> 00:16:31,420 and that's a lesson we had to learn and 379 00:16:37,290 --> 00:16:34,089 I hope that it's a lesson other people 380 00:16:39,419 --> 00:16:37,300 will learn from us and then not make the 381 00:16:41,009 --> 00:16:39,429 same mistake and just go go to these 382 00:16:42,989 --> 00:16:41,019 places don't just sit on your computer 383 00:16:43,559 --> 00:16:42,999 Google Earth it go there to talk to 384 00:16:46,650 --> 00:16:43,569 these people 385 00:16:49,530 --> 00:16:46,660 exactly which is what you guys did and 386 00:16:53,699 --> 00:16:49,540 you actually brought a new member to the 387 00:16:55,710 --> 00:16:53,709 team yeah let's let's get to it mr. 388 00:16:57,780 --> 00:16:55,720 Tyler strand I've never heard of this 389 00:16:59,939 --> 00:16:57,790 guy before the minute you put him on 390 00:17:04,350 --> 00:16:59,949 camera I'm like whoa I feel like I just 391 00:17:08,669 --> 00:17:04,360 drank 10 Red Bulls so your monster 392 00:17:12,659 --> 00:17:08,679 energy drinks so apologies apologies 666 393 00:17:14,909 --> 00:17:12,669 yeah that's a different story so what 394 00:17:17,340 --> 00:17:14,919 prompted you to reach out to Tyler and 395 00:17:19,199 --> 00:17:17,350 what did he bring to the team in your 396 00:17:22,470 --> 00:17:19,209 furthering this investigation 397 00:17:23,610 --> 00:17:22,480 Tyler reached out to us okay I think the 398 00:17:28,079 --> 00:17:23,620 phenomena 399 00:17:30,600 --> 00:17:28,089 put him into the series I really see no 400 00:17:31,980 --> 00:17:30,610 other solution to it you know he if 401 00:17:33,899 --> 00:17:31,990 people watch season one they actually 402 00:17:35,840 --> 00:17:33,909 catch a glimpse of him and it was a 403 00:17:38,549 --> 00:17:35,850 synchronicity that made him show up 404 00:17:40,860 --> 00:17:38,559 interesting okay yeah I must have missed 405 00:17:43,080 --> 00:17:40,870 that in the first season but um yeah he 406 00:17:46,890 --> 00:17:43,090 did he brought like a whole new level of 407 00:17:49,169 --> 00:17:46,900 energy and passion that was there but 408 00:17:51,690 --> 00:17:49,179 that that I think a lot of the more 409 00:17:54,269 --> 00:17:51,700 adventurous of those out there who look 410 00:17:55,919 --> 00:17:54,279 into this stuff he's not afraid to go 411 00:17:58,830 --> 00:17:55,929 into the belly of the beast you know I 412 00:18:01,620 --> 00:17:58,840 mean he is just climbing mountains he's 413 00:18:04,380 --> 00:18:01,630 going into the caves he's he literally 414 00:18:08,610 --> 00:18:04,390 had like a throw down I think Greg with 415 00:18:10,860 --> 00:18:08,620 you about pursuing a certain lead or a 416 00:18:13,139 --> 00:18:10,870 coordinates where you guys you put the 417 00:18:15,539 --> 00:18:13,149 line in the Senate said no I'm not 418 00:18:17,909 --> 00:18:15,549 doing that and he said well then I'll do 419 00:18:19,919 --> 00:18:17,919 it and something else about Tyler that 420 00:18:21,659 --> 00:18:19,929 stuck out to me one line in an episode I 421 00:18:24,389 --> 00:18:21,669 don't want to give away too much but um 422 00:18:27,529 --> 00:18:24,399 he said I think one man's angel is 423 00:18:30,630 --> 00:18:27,539 another man's alien and that line 424 00:18:32,850 --> 00:18:30,640 resonated with me in so many ways I 425 00:18:35,250 --> 00:18:32,860 literally when he said that I was like 426 00:18:37,830 --> 00:18:35,260 hell yeah that is exactly what I've been 427 00:18:41,159 --> 00:18:37,840 trying to say for years sort of that 428 00:18:44,039 --> 00:18:41,169 that lens and the life that each person 429 00:18:45,990 --> 00:18:44,049 has it directly affects the perception 430 00:18:47,430 --> 00:18:46,000 of inexperience whether it's what you 431 00:18:49,409 --> 00:18:47,440 guys are doing whether it's aliens 432 00:18:52,440 --> 00:18:49,419 whether it's a miracle or the 433 00:18:54,480 --> 00:18:52,450 supernatural so I love to know both your 434 00:18:57,960 --> 00:18:54,490 personal thoughts on that you know sort 435 00:19:01,230 --> 00:18:57,970 of the lens in which you you perceive 436 00:19:03,269 --> 00:19:01,240 one of these events you know it's funny 437 00:19:06,510 --> 00:19:03,279 that statement is one that Tyler made in 438 00:19:08,669 --> 00:19:06,520 his interview and you know about a week 439 00:19:10,710 --> 00:19:08,679 afterwards and and when he said that 440 00:19:12,360 --> 00:19:10,720 especially given what he had just been 441 00:19:15,240 --> 00:19:12,370 through you know without giving too many 442 00:19:18,510 --> 00:19:15,250 spoilers but it was sort of brought home 443 00:19:21,480 --> 00:19:18,520 his perspective where I think he was 444 00:19:24,090 --> 00:19:21,490 really thrown off by these things where 445 00:19:26,159 --> 00:19:24,100 you know he's not scared I mean Tyler's 446 00:19:29,430 --> 00:19:26,169 really not scared of much honestly in my 447 00:19:32,490 --> 00:19:29,440 experience but but he was really felt 448 00:19:34,620 --> 00:19:32,500 this intimidating energy and really 449 00:19:36,989 --> 00:19:34,630 summed it up very succinctly by saying 450 00:19:39,019 --> 00:19:36,999 that I come from a little bit of a 451 00:19:41,909 --> 00:19:39,029 bring viewpoint because I'm you know I'm 452 00:19:44,459 --> 00:19:41,919 practicing Catholic and so there are 453 00:19:45,959 --> 00:19:44,469 some pretty clear lines and sand there 454 00:19:49,529 --> 00:19:45,969 from my viewpoint 455 00:19:51,539 --> 00:19:49,539 I think there's darker or scarier 456 00:19:54,449 --> 00:19:51,549 aspects of this case and I think that 457 00:19:57,749 --> 00:19:54,459 there's lighter aspects of this case and 458 00:19:59,759 --> 00:19:57,759 so whatever we can tap into to get help 459 00:20:01,909 --> 00:19:59,769 from those from those lighter energy 460 00:20:04,919 --> 00:20:01,919 uses is something that I'm definitely 461 00:20:08,309 --> 00:20:04,929 interested in looking more more into 462 00:20:11,039 --> 00:20:08,319 yeah how about you crack I mean I'm sure 463 00:20:13,079 --> 00:20:11,049 it I've been flowed every minute like 464 00:20:15,299 --> 00:20:13,089 you're dealing with goblins then you're 465 00:20:17,159 --> 00:20:15,309 dealing with communicating with aliens 466 00:20:19,319 --> 00:20:17,169 nope nope nope it's not an alien it's 467 00:20:20,729 --> 00:20:19,329 it's a it's a mythical God that 468 00:20:23,249 --> 00:20:20,739 everyone's forgotten you know just 469 00:20:26,129 --> 00:20:23,259 everything everything soon what is 470 00:20:28,289 --> 00:20:26,139 what's that concept to you mean you know 471 00:20:30,869 --> 00:20:28,299 this idea of one man's angel is 472 00:20:33,389 --> 00:20:30,879 another's alien I think what Tyler did 473 00:20:35,699 --> 00:20:33,399 is he really succinctly summed up a lot 474 00:20:38,399 --> 00:20:35,709 of what we started this whole case with 475 00:20:41,729 --> 00:20:38,409 which was this idea that there was some 476 00:20:44,909 --> 00:20:41,739 phenomena happening in the Appalachian 477 00:20:47,969 --> 00:20:44,919 in along the mammoth cave system but 478 00:20:49,919 --> 00:20:47,979 because these places were so segregated 479 00:20:52,409 --> 00:20:49,929 from one another people had given the 480 00:20:53,669 --> 00:20:52,419 phenomena different names so someone 481 00:20:55,019 --> 00:20:53,679 would call it one thing and another 482 00:20:57,449 --> 00:20:55,029 person would call it another it was a 483 00:21:00,269 --> 00:20:57,459 Tommyknocker or it was a goblin or it 484 00:21:04,109 --> 00:21:00,279 was a you know who knows whatever it was 485 00:21:05,609 --> 00:21:04,119 a Bigfoot but when you start to tie all 486 00:21:07,409 --> 00:21:05,619 of those things together you realize 487 00:21:09,089 --> 00:21:07,419 that's all the same thing it's just 488 00:21:10,109 --> 00:21:09,099 different names because people didn't 489 00:21:13,529 --> 00:21:10,119 have the context 490 00:21:15,359 --> 00:21:13,539 so Tyler saying one man's angel is 491 00:21:18,839 --> 00:21:15,369 another man's alien is it's the most 492 00:21:22,109 --> 00:21:18,849 succinct way to really show what we're 493 00:21:24,239 --> 00:21:22,119 looking at with this entire case is that 494 00:21:27,839 --> 00:21:24,249 it's just about the lens through which 495 00:21:30,209 --> 00:21:27,849 you view the world you can only describe 496 00:21:34,109 --> 00:21:30,219 something in the terms that you 497 00:21:37,469 --> 00:21:34,119 understand and so for one person an 498 00:21:40,019 --> 00:21:37,479 external force that seems omnipotent you 499 00:21:41,399 --> 00:21:40,029 know that's that's an angel but for 500 00:21:43,559 --> 00:21:41,409 another person that might be an 501 00:21:45,299 --> 00:21:43,569 extraterrestrial and for another person 502 00:21:47,609 --> 00:21:45,309 who knows it could be it could be 503 00:21:49,499 --> 00:21:47,619 anything else yeah there's there's 504 00:21:50,850 --> 00:21:49,509 entire books you know I'm sure that you 505 00:21:53,400 --> 00:21:50,860 know more about this than I do right 506 00:21:54,900 --> 00:21:53,410 looking at angelic and biblical 507 00:21:57,900 --> 00:21:54,910 proportions through sort of a youth 508 00:21:59,640 --> 00:21:57,910 illogical lens that's fascinating 509 00:22:02,010 --> 00:21:59,650 the other thing is like and Tyler said 510 00:22:05,190 --> 00:22:02,020 well as well and in an interview he did 511 00:22:08,039 --> 00:22:05,200 recently these reports from about 512 00:22:09,990 --> 00:22:08,049 goblins specifically the thing is is 513 00:22:12,299 --> 00:22:10,000 that we sort of gave them that blanket 514 00:22:14,970 --> 00:22:12,309 term goblins David never actually 515 00:22:17,070 --> 00:22:14,980 referred to them as goblins he referred 516 00:22:19,020 --> 00:22:17,080 to them as extraterrestrials and then 517 00:22:22,080 --> 00:22:19,030 gave that description that really fit 518 00:22:24,030 --> 00:22:22,090 well with the 1955 case in addition 519 00:22:25,860 --> 00:22:24,040 there's other reports the thing people 520 00:22:28,799 --> 00:22:25,870 who call them golems people who call 521 00:22:30,299 --> 00:22:28,809 them little beings little men little you 522 00:22:31,770 --> 00:22:30,309 know things like that if the reports are 523 00:22:34,680 --> 00:22:31,780 all over the place which frankly makes 524 00:22:37,830 --> 00:22:34,690 the job a little bit more difficult yeah 525 00:22:40,320 --> 00:22:37,840 absolutely well I think something that I 526 00:22:43,620 --> 00:22:40,330 think all three of us sort of have in 527 00:22:45,060 --> 00:22:43,630 common or had in common is our faith I 528 00:22:46,919 --> 00:22:45,070 mean Greg I remember you saying in the 529 00:22:49,980 --> 00:22:46,929 show you know you were you were raised 530 00:22:53,310 --> 00:22:49,990 very very religious Connor I know you're 531 00:22:55,740 --> 00:22:53,320 a a practicing Catholic I am myself and 532 00:22:58,110 --> 00:22:55,750 that that does play into a lot of these 533 00:23:00,900 --> 00:22:58,120 things I remember reading for the first 534 00:23:04,169 --> 00:23:00,910 time about the you know the sightings of 535 00:23:06,960 --> 00:23:04,179 Fatima and that now we look at something 536 00:23:10,409 --> 00:23:06,970 like that as perhaps one of the first 537 00:23:12,930 --> 00:23:10,419 UFO sightings something Fla has talked a 538 00:23:16,980 --> 00:23:12,940 lot about so it's exciting to me when 539 00:23:21,030 --> 00:23:16,990 you can come into these things with one 540 00:23:24,030 --> 00:23:21,040 faith and come out with it respecting 541 00:23:25,770 --> 00:23:24,040 perhaps another faith so I found that 542 00:23:27,720 --> 00:23:25,780 really fascinating the the things you 543 00:23:30,570 --> 00:23:27,730 decided to tackle on this season were 544 00:23:33,419 --> 00:23:30,580 big they're big they're controversial 545 00:23:36,180 --> 00:23:33,429 and I just I have to commend you guys 546 00:23:39,030 --> 00:23:36,190 for just staying open to everything that 547 00:23:41,280 --> 00:23:39,040 was sort of thrown your way and that's 548 00:23:43,710 --> 00:23:41,290 that's that can't be easy 549 00:23:53,120 --> 00:23:43,720 I would assume well work we're 550 00:23:56,070 --> 00:23:53,130 constantly scared I could only imagine 551 00:23:58,830 --> 00:23:56,080 well that's actually a really good a 552 00:24:02,909 --> 00:23:58,840 good transition Craig um being scared 553 00:24:03,790 --> 00:24:02,919 now you guys are kind of led down some 554 00:24:06,220 --> 00:24:03,800 dark road 555 00:24:10,240 --> 00:24:06,230 in one place in particular that you end 556 00:24:12,730 --> 00:24:10,250 up in this season and it was scary man 557 00:24:15,160 --> 00:24:12,740 I'm not gonna lie I was literally 558 00:24:17,110 --> 00:24:15,170 concerned for your guy's safety I mean 559 00:24:19,330 --> 00:24:17,120 we knew hello your season two was coming 560 00:24:22,870 --> 00:24:19,340 out and we knew you guys were still on 561 00:24:25,240 --> 00:24:22,880 social networks but you know what you 562 00:24:27,640 --> 00:24:25,250 may have experienced in the filming 563 00:24:30,970 --> 00:24:27,650 where we weren't quite sure of so what 564 00:24:34,720 --> 00:24:30,980 was it like struggling but sort of this 565 00:24:36,700 --> 00:24:34,730 idea of like becoming too paranoid I've 566 00:24:40,930 --> 00:24:36,710 seen a lot of the chatter online sort of 567 00:24:42,430 --> 00:24:40,940 the skeptics or the detractors of the 568 00:24:44,710 --> 00:24:42,440 ambitious things that you guys are doing 569 00:24:46,750 --> 00:24:44,720 saying oh they're just paranoid like 570 00:24:48,190 --> 00:24:46,760 they're making up along the way or 571 00:24:50,800 --> 00:24:48,200 finding connections that aren't there 572 00:24:53,410 --> 00:24:50,810 how do you deal with something like that 573 00:24:56,170 --> 00:24:53,420 when every small thing becomes a 574 00:24:57,520 --> 00:24:56,180 synchronicity for you I mean I think 575 00:25:00,010 --> 00:24:57,530 that's one of the biggest things in the 576 00:25:02,860 --> 00:25:00,020 second season the second season is us 577 00:25:04,390 --> 00:25:02,870 tackling this idea of at what point is 578 00:25:06,790 --> 00:25:04,400 it a connection and at what point is a 579 00:25:08,830 --> 00:25:06,800 sync is is it a synchronicity at what 580 00:25:10,420 --> 00:25:08,840 point are is it a small synchronicity in 581 00:25:13,030 --> 00:25:10,430 something maybe that's just a side 582 00:25:14,700 --> 00:25:13,040 effect of what we're doing and where 583 00:25:17,020 --> 00:25:14,710 we're going and what we're looking into 584 00:25:18,850 --> 00:25:17,030 and that's I mean that was a big part of 585 00:25:22,480 --> 00:25:18,860 our paranoia you know plus some of the 586 00:25:25,150 --> 00:25:22,490 new scarier elements that are sent to us 587 00:25:28,000 --> 00:25:25,160 in this case and some of the paths that 588 00:25:31,540 --> 00:25:28,010 we very reluctantly traveled down 589 00:25:34,780 --> 00:25:31,550 because honestly we had to those didn't 590 00:25:37,330 --> 00:25:34,790 help either and I mean I'm naturally a 591 00:25:39,040 --> 00:25:37,340 paranoid person you can ask Connor Karl 592 00:25:41,920 --> 00:25:39,050 or anybody about it and probably the 593 00:25:44,920 --> 00:25:41,930 most paranoid person in this group but I 594 00:25:48,100 --> 00:25:44,930 think the further down this path we went 595 00:25:50,560 --> 00:25:48,110 the more paranoid everybody else Scott - 596 00:25:55,390 --> 00:25:50,570 except maybe Tyler because Tyler just 597 00:25:59,010 --> 00:25:55,400 doesn't care but it's it's tough it's I 598 00:26:01,590 --> 00:25:59,020 think the hardest thing about Helier is 599 00:26:04,180 --> 00:26:01,600 bringing people into that moment with us 600 00:26:07,060 --> 00:26:04,190 which I think we've done a really really 601 00:26:10,420 --> 00:26:07,070 good job of this season it is putting 602 00:26:13,390 --> 00:26:10,430 people in our shoes and going how would 603 00:26:15,250 --> 00:26:13,400 you react if you got these emails how 604 00:26:17,289 --> 00:26:15,260 would you react if you started noticing 605 00:26:20,529 --> 00:26:17,299 that there were connection 606 00:26:22,239 --> 00:26:20,539 between this email and this thing that's 607 00:26:24,879 --> 00:26:22,249 happening to you how would you feel if 608 00:26:28,690 --> 00:26:24,889 you started to realize there is someone 609 00:26:32,499 --> 00:26:28,700 or some thing watching and potentially 610 00:26:35,289 --> 00:26:32,509 pulling strings and I think we feel that 611 00:26:37,659 --> 00:26:35,299 more in this second season I think just 612 00:26:39,789 --> 00:26:37,669 because it's objectively a darker and 613 00:26:43,269 --> 00:26:39,799 scarier season than the first season and 614 00:26:45,419 --> 00:26:43,279 the connections are so much more hard to 615 00:26:48,489 --> 00:26:45,429 deny I mean there's a lot of people who 616 00:26:50,590 --> 00:26:48,499 probably won't give Hellyer a second 617 00:26:52,180 --> 00:26:50,600 chance because they saw the first season 618 00:26:53,529 --> 00:26:52,190 and thought well you know I think 619 00:26:55,899 --> 00:26:53,539 they're making a mountain out of a 620 00:26:59,019 --> 00:26:55,909 molehill thing is we said from the very 621 00:27:02,409 --> 00:26:59,029 beginning season 1 is just a prologue we 622 00:27:04,570 --> 00:27:02,419 started shooting season 2 months before 623 00:27:06,369 --> 00:27:04,580 season 1 it was even released so we've 624 00:27:10,239 --> 00:27:06,379 had to keep our mouths shut about this 625 00:27:12,759 --> 00:27:10,249 for a long time in fact the sixth 626 00:27:16,330 --> 00:27:12,769 episode of the 10 episodes second season 627 00:27:19,830 --> 00:27:16,340 is the release of the first season so 628 00:27:22,299 --> 00:27:19,840 people can see how things have moved so 629 00:27:24,279 --> 00:27:22,309 anyone who felt that way after watching 630 00:27:26,970 --> 00:27:24,289 the first season I would say I would 631 00:27:29,769 --> 00:27:26,980 with a super huge amount of confidence 632 00:27:31,690 --> 00:27:29,779 watch the second season and you will 633 00:27:33,879 --> 00:27:31,700 reevaluate all of the things that happen 634 00:27:36,220 --> 00:27:33,889 in the first season and see how 635 00:27:38,409 --> 00:27:36,230 important they actually were absolutely 636 00:27:41,289 --> 00:27:38,419 I think I'm gonna go watch everything in 637 00:27:43,269 --> 00:27:41,299 Reverse now and see what comes out on 638 00:27:45,879 --> 00:27:43,279 the other side Connor what do you think 639 00:27:47,889 --> 00:27:45,889 man howdy how did you deal with sort of 640 00:27:50,859 --> 00:27:47,899 the the paranoia aspect of all this 641 00:27:53,619 --> 00:27:50,869 feeling like you guys might you might 642 00:27:57,039 --> 00:27:53,629 have been led that that's terrifying to 643 00:27:59,649 --> 00:27:57,049 me mm-hmm it is it absolutely is you 644 00:28:01,779 --> 00:27:59,659 know Greg is the one at the heart of 645 00:28:04,539 --> 00:28:01,789 this case you know we all have are 646 00:28:07,049 --> 00:28:04,549 helping him out and our and our this has 647 00:28:10,269 --> 00:28:07,059 become our case too but at its base form 648 00:28:13,269 --> 00:28:10,279 this is Greg's case before anybody 649 00:28:15,279 --> 00:28:13,279 else's the emails were sent to him the 650 00:28:18,729 --> 00:28:15,289 idea of somebody watching what he's 651 00:28:21,249 --> 00:28:18,739 doing and watching my friend go through 652 00:28:23,649 --> 00:28:21,259 that paranoia I mean I've seen Greg get 653 00:28:26,739 --> 00:28:23,659 very emotional on all of the other sides 654 00:28:29,489 --> 00:28:26,749 of the spectrum about this case so it's 655 00:28:31,180 --> 00:28:29,499 something that's deeply personal it is 656 00:28:35,530 --> 00:28:31,190 really difficult 657 00:28:37,210 --> 00:28:35,540 to describe what a synchronistic aspect 658 00:28:38,860 --> 00:28:37,220 is like and I hope that there 659 00:28:41,170 --> 00:28:38,870 I'm sure there's listeners that are 660 00:28:42,400 --> 00:28:41,180 shaking their heads no like that what 661 00:28:44,410 --> 00:28:42,410 are you talking about and I'm sure 662 00:28:46,990 --> 00:28:44,420 there's listeners who are fully agreeing 663 00:28:50,470 --> 00:28:47,000 with me things like when you are 664 00:28:52,690 --> 00:28:50,480 thinking about something you open up a 665 00:28:54,100 --> 00:28:52,700 book and exactly the sentence that you 666 00:28:57,100 --> 00:28:54,110 look at is the word that you were 667 00:29:00,070 --> 00:28:57,110 thinking about except sometimes tenfold 668 00:29:03,370 --> 00:29:00,080 more powerful than that it feels as if 669 00:29:05,890 --> 00:29:03,380 there's some force that is wanting to 670 00:29:07,390 --> 00:29:05,900 guide you through these checkpoints it's 671 00:29:11,260 --> 00:29:07,400 something that we've struggled with 672 00:29:14,350 --> 00:29:11,270 trying to explain but as we said pretty 673 00:29:18,160 --> 00:29:14,360 early on in season two we think that it 674 00:29:20,470 --> 00:29:18,170 might just be sort of once people tap 675 00:29:24,010 --> 00:29:20,480 into this level of high strangeness it 676 00:29:26,230 --> 00:29:24,020 might just be a side effect of something 677 00:29:29,620 --> 00:29:26,240 that that can occur around you while 678 00:29:31,660 --> 00:29:29,630 you're doing that yeah yeah this idea of 679 00:29:32,980 --> 00:29:31,670 symptoms symptoms side effect it just 680 00:29:36,460 --> 00:29:32,990 keeps coming back and back and back 681 00:29:38,890 --> 00:29:36,470 which builds on to a greater question 682 00:29:40,300 --> 00:29:38,900 towards the end of season 2 I would say 683 00:29:42,160 --> 00:29:40,310 but we won't we're not gonna give 684 00:29:44,770 --> 00:29:42,170 anything away in terms of that but um 685 00:29:46,900 --> 00:29:44,780 something that fascinated me guys I am a 686 00:29:47,530 --> 00:29:46,910 UFO guy so I gotta turn it back on this 687 00:29:50,710 --> 00:29:47,540 for a minute 688 00:29:53,320 --> 00:29:50,720 awesome the experiment you conducted 689 00:29:55,360 --> 00:29:53,330 Greg early on before any of this where 690 00:29:59,830 --> 00:29:55,370 you induced an alien abduction 691 00:30:04,450 --> 00:29:59,840 experience what do you think about that 692 00:30:06,550 --> 00:30:04,460 well okay so I struck yeah yeah I've 693 00:30:08,130 --> 00:30:06,560 always struggled with hypnotic 694 00:30:12,910 --> 00:30:08,140 regression when it comes of course 695 00:30:16,960 --> 00:30:12,920 experiences I I would I have to say this 696 00:30:18,400 --> 00:30:16,970 I I don't suggest it to those who come 697 00:30:21,370 --> 00:30:18,410 to me and say I've been abducted by 698 00:30:25,660 --> 00:30:21,380 aliens worse not not because I don't 699 00:30:27,910 --> 00:30:25,670 believe memories can be brought up I I'm 700 00:30:29,500 --> 00:30:27,920 more concerned about the trauma those 701 00:30:32,110 --> 00:30:29,510 memories can cause to the person 702 00:30:34,330 --> 00:30:32,120 afterwards interesting yeah I don't 703 00:30:38,950 --> 00:30:34,340 necessarily think that they're being led 704 00:30:41,890 --> 00:30:38,960 or that the the hypnotic regressor 705 00:30:43,840 --> 00:30:41,900 quote-unquote is trying to put their 706 00:30:44,770 --> 00:30:43,850 agenda on anything human you think 707 00:30:48,550 --> 00:30:44,780 they're buried for 708 00:30:50,740 --> 00:30:48,560 reason absolutely I have nerve and I've 709 00:30:53,260 --> 00:30:50,750 had so many experiences who don't need 710 00:30:55,230 --> 00:30:53,270 the regression to remember certain 711 00:30:58,720 --> 00:30:55,240 things and that's when I'm like okay 712 00:31:01,270 --> 00:30:58,730 don't go to a hip you know don't go to 713 00:31:02,890 --> 00:31:01,280 hypnotherapy go to a therapist a 714 00:31:05,320 --> 00:31:02,900 certified therapist who has no 715 00:31:08,290 --> 00:31:05,330 connection to aliens or UFOs whatsoever 716 00:31:09,910 --> 00:31:08,300 because you need you just need help you 717 00:31:12,670 --> 00:31:09,920 have you don't need to know what 718 00:31:16,720 --> 00:31:12,680 happened on that craft necessarily you 719 00:31:18,490 --> 00:31:16,730 just need her help so this was really 720 00:31:20,890 --> 00:31:18,500 fascinating when I learned that you 721 00:31:24,460 --> 00:31:20,900 conducted an experiment where you put 722 00:31:27,100 --> 00:31:24,470 someone under and put implanted an alien 723 00:31:30,010 --> 00:31:27,110 abduction scenario into their mind 724 00:31:32,470 --> 00:31:30,020 so how how did that whole thing come 725 00:31:35,410 --> 00:31:32,480 about and how did it sort of play into 726 00:31:38,230 --> 00:31:35,420 the greater story of failure well the 727 00:31:42,510 --> 00:31:38,240 experiment happened because we were 728 00:31:46,810 --> 00:31:42,520 shooting a web series years ago 729 00:31:50,770 --> 00:31:46,820 2012-2013 and it was me my friends Nick 730 00:31:53,680 --> 00:31:50,780 Jason and Dana and the whole point of 731 00:31:57,250 --> 00:31:53,690 the show that we were trying to make was 732 00:32:00,010 --> 00:31:57,260 we're gonna go and like test-drive stuff 733 00:32:01,810 --> 00:32:00,020 weird stuff right so the the the name of 734 00:32:04,090 --> 00:32:01,820 the show was engaging the strange and 735 00:32:05,260 --> 00:32:04,100 that's kind of been our motto for a lot 736 00:32:07,630 --> 00:32:05,270 of the stuff that we do with planet 737 00:32:09,640 --> 00:32:07,640 weird is like engage the strange the 738 00:32:11,980 --> 00:32:09,650 paranormal is a subjective thing so you 739 00:32:14,500 --> 00:32:11,990 have to subject yourself to it and that 740 00:32:15,880 --> 00:32:14,510 was the goal of this series and so we 741 00:32:17,230 --> 00:32:15,890 went around you know we were we were 742 00:32:20,500 --> 00:32:17,240 swimming in Fountain of Youth we were 743 00:32:22,450 --> 00:32:20,510 drinking blood with vampires we were you 744 00:32:23,110 --> 00:32:22,460 know we we tried to get abducted by 745 00:32:25,090 --> 00:32:23,120 aliens 746 00:32:29,110 --> 00:32:25,100 that was the the goal let's get abducted 747 00:32:30,820 --> 00:32:29,120 by aliens now as Connor and Karl will 748 00:32:32,710 --> 00:32:30,830 tell you I'm a person who doesn't like 749 00:32:34,840 --> 00:32:32,720 to do something if I don't know it's a 750 00:32:37,300 --> 00:32:34,850 sure thing I want to have an idea of 751 00:32:39,310 --> 00:32:37,310 what's gonna happen right I want to know 752 00:32:41,890 --> 00:32:39,320 that there's a there's an end so Helier 753 00:32:43,840 --> 00:32:41,900 has been a very difficult a difficult 754 00:32:47,080 --> 00:32:43,850 project for me to work on I'm better now 755 00:32:48,490 --> 00:32:47,090 than I was before but because of that I 756 00:32:50,650 --> 00:32:48,500 kind of knew we weren't gonna get 757 00:32:53,650 --> 00:32:50,660 abducted by aliens I had low hopes for 758 00:32:56,110 --> 00:32:53,660 that at least so I reached out to a 759 00:32:58,810 --> 00:32:56,120 friend of mine who did some writing for 760 00:33:02,020 --> 00:32:58,820 weak and weird and I said Lani 761 00:33:04,000 --> 00:33:02,030 you're a hypnotist I know that you do 762 00:33:05,200 --> 00:33:04,010 you know I don't Lonnie never did these 763 00:33:07,150 --> 00:33:05,210 because he didn't he didn't agree that 764 00:33:08,440 --> 00:33:07,160 they were ethical but I was like I know 765 00:33:12,030 --> 00:33:08,450 that a lot of people do regression 766 00:33:15,370 --> 00:33:12,040 sessions for abductees but do you think 767 00:33:17,140 --> 00:33:15,380 you could put an alien abduction in 768 00:33:19,630 --> 00:33:17,150 somebody's head that he's like yeah 769 00:33:21,280 --> 00:33:19,640 absolutely of course I can but I'm never 770 00:33:22,750 --> 00:33:21,290 gonna do that he's like that's terrible 771 00:33:26,110 --> 00:33:22,760 and I was like what if we all agree he's 772 00:33:27,640 --> 00:33:26,120 like absolutely not and then he was like 773 00:33:30,250 --> 00:33:27,650 you know what I thought about it I think 774 00:33:32,080 --> 00:33:30,260 we should try it as long as you know I'm 775 00:33:33,430 --> 00:33:32,090 only gonna do it for one of you and as 776 00:33:36,850 --> 00:33:33,440 long as you know that you're all on the 777 00:33:38,470 --> 00:33:36,860 same place and I can put the idea in but 778 00:33:42,190 --> 00:33:38,480 sometimes it might be a bit harder to 779 00:33:43,750 --> 00:33:42,200 get out and so this idea was we tried to 780 00:33:46,270 --> 00:33:43,760 get abducted the old-fashioned way and 781 00:33:48,370 --> 00:33:46,280 since that didn't work let's try it a 782 00:33:50,830 --> 00:33:48,380 different way and we went into it purely 783 00:33:52,480 --> 00:33:50,840 as a you know what's this experience 784 00:33:54,130 --> 00:33:52,490 gonna be like we're gonna get to send 785 00:33:56,980 --> 00:33:54,140 one of our friends on this journey into 786 00:33:59,830 --> 00:33:56,990 his own mind and then interview him 787 00:34:02,170 --> 00:33:59,840 afterwards we'd see how it would line up 788 00:34:04,120 --> 00:34:02,180 with traditional abduction experiences 789 00:34:06,730 --> 00:34:04,130 how was it the same how was it different 790 00:34:08,710 --> 00:34:06,740 how much did Lonnie have to lead him 791 00:34:11,830 --> 00:34:08,720 into this situation how much would his 792 00:34:13,780 --> 00:34:11,840 mind fill in it happened when it 793 00:34:15,909 --> 00:34:13,790 happened it wasn't supposed to be Jason 794 00:34:20,830 --> 00:34:15,919 that went we were gonna send our friend 795 00:34:23,169 --> 00:34:20,840 Nick and Jason before Lonnie had shown 796 00:34:24,700 --> 00:34:23,179 up it's like spent half an hour talking 797 00:34:26,830 --> 00:34:24,710 about how he didn't believe in hypnosis 798 00:34:28,270 --> 00:34:26,840 and how when he was in high school you 799 00:34:30,520 --> 00:34:28,280 know he did one of those like local fare 800 00:34:35,560 --> 00:34:30,530 hypnosis things and he just played along 801 00:34:37,270 --> 00:34:35,570 and when I brought this up you know I 802 00:34:39,040 --> 00:34:37,280 was like listen you know Jason doesn't 803 00:34:39,659 --> 00:34:39,050 believe in hypnosis should we believe in 804 00:34:42,550 --> 00:34:39,669 hypnosis 805 00:34:44,409 --> 00:34:42,560 Lonnie went you know what I think he's 806 00:34:46,680 --> 00:34:44,419 the perfect victim 807 00:34:49,270 --> 00:34:46,690 well not victim here that he's a perfect 808 00:34:51,880 --> 00:34:49,280 he's the perfect experience there for 809 00:34:55,260 --> 00:34:51,890 this and so that's why he ended up going 810 00:35:00,000 --> 00:34:55,270 and it it resulted in a really 811 00:35:03,820 --> 00:35:00,010 frightening experience you know he was 812 00:35:05,170 --> 00:35:03,830 only under for 20-30 minutes and he had 813 00:35:07,000 --> 00:35:05,180 an experience that was four days long 814 00:35:08,770 --> 00:35:07,010 and it wasn't a nice one 815 00:35:10,930 --> 00:35:08,780 and he was barely led into that 816 00:35:12,160 --> 00:35:10,940 experience and it really changed my 817 00:35:13,900 --> 00:35:12,170 opinion 818 00:35:17,230 --> 00:35:13,910 what's happening with a lot of abduction 819 00:35:18,579 --> 00:35:17,240 phenomena to believing that a lot of the 820 00:35:20,500 --> 00:35:18,589 stuff that's happening during these 821 00:35:22,240 --> 00:35:20,510 abduction experiences and we've hung out 822 00:35:25,210 --> 00:35:22,250 and talked to abductees since then and 823 00:35:27,190 --> 00:35:25,220 they have agreed there's a non-physical 824 00:35:29,200 --> 00:35:27,200 aspect that happens to these and a lot 825 00:35:32,530 --> 00:35:29,210 of those abductees are like all you did 826 00:35:35,260 --> 00:35:32,540 was turn him on you you invited them to 827 00:35:36,789 --> 00:35:35,270 give him an expand on physical 828 00:35:39,400 --> 00:35:36,799 experience that's just as real as any 829 00:35:42,789 --> 00:35:39,410 physical experience and it really it 830 00:35:46,089 --> 00:35:42,799 frightened us the implications of that I 831 00:35:48,039 --> 00:35:46,099 mean I I work here in New York on 832 00:35:52,150 --> 00:35:48,049 Broadway and I'm currently working a 833 00:35:54,910 --> 00:35:52,160 production of Darren brown on Broadway 834 00:35:57,839 --> 00:35:54,920 The Mentalist wonderful I'm here he's 835 00:36:01,359 --> 00:35:57,849 amazing and that's the thing like I I 836 00:36:04,510 --> 00:36:01,369 was never a big proponent of hypnosis I 837 00:36:07,930 --> 00:36:04,520 I've said it many many times and I watch 838 00:36:10,839 --> 00:36:07,940 this guy eight shows a week put someone 839 00:36:12,640 --> 00:36:10,849 under with literally putting their own 840 00:36:15,339 --> 00:36:12,650 hand in front of their face just like 841 00:36:17,380 --> 00:36:15,349 you guys did and right catching them in 842 00:36:19,950 --> 00:36:17,390 the most vulnerable mental state they 843 00:36:22,180 --> 00:36:19,960 can possibly be and going under and 844 00:36:26,349 --> 00:36:22,190 short-circuiting their brains oh my god 845 00:36:29,410 --> 00:36:26,359 it's it's amazing it's scary to see how 846 00:36:32,890 --> 00:36:29,420 easily that happens right easy I mean if 847 00:36:35,319 --> 00:36:32,900 if like the military got all these 848 00:36:37,720 --> 00:36:35,329 mentalists together imagine imagine what 849 00:36:45,910 --> 00:36:37,730 they could do with these people and who 850 00:36:50,470 --> 00:36:45,920 says they're not that or of Darren brown 851 00:36:53,710 --> 00:36:50,480 I don't know but yeah so he goes under 852 00:36:58,349 --> 00:36:53,720 he has this incredible abduction story 853 00:37:01,410 --> 00:36:58,359 come home and this kind of plays into 854 00:37:04,180 --> 00:37:01,420 the bigger picture of Hellyer and 855 00:37:08,500 --> 00:37:04,190 communicating with possible non-human 856 00:37:11,079 --> 00:37:08,510 entities which I'm fascinating regarding 857 00:37:13,630 --> 00:37:11,089 the experiment the hypnosis experiment 858 00:37:15,789 --> 00:37:13,640 Jason there's there's three things that 859 00:37:18,280 --> 00:37:15,799 have could have possibly happened in my 860 00:37:21,520 --> 00:37:18,290 mind because we know that he was 861 00:37:23,500 --> 00:37:21,530 hypnotized and was not faking it so 862 00:37:26,440 --> 00:37:23,510 dismissing that there's three 863 00:37:28,960 --> 00:37:26,450 possibilities that I could think of 864 00:37:30,700 --> 00:37:28,970 first up maybe his maybe his 865 00:37:32,500 --> 00:37:30,710 subconscious made it up why his 866 00:37:34,660 --> 00:37:32,510 subconscious would do that I have no 867 00:37:38,020 --> 00:37:34,670 idea I think some of the more likely 868 00:37:40,420 --> 00:37:38,030 scenarios would be either number two he 869 00:37:42,820 --> 00:37:40,430 already had something happened to him 870 00:37:47,350 --> 00:37:42,830 and it was a potential accidental 871 00:37:49,360 --> 00:37:47,360 regression or number three we he was 872 00:37:51,640 --> 00:37:49,370 tapped in he was tapped into an 873 00:37:54,910 --> 00:37:51,650 experienced and to some sort of higher 874 00:37:58,210 --> 00:37:54,920 level of beings or something and it just 875 00:38:00,550 --> 00:37:58,220 sort of created a a quick shortcut to 876 00:38:03,100 --> 00:38:00,560 get to that sort of an experience and so 877 00:38:05,740 --> 00:38:03,110 going forward our thought was well shoot 878 00:38:08,920 --> 00:38:05,750 Greg you had this really interesting 879 00:38:11,830 --> 00:38:08,930 scary idea to do this if he was tapped 880 00:38:13,840 --> 00:38:11,840 in and were potentially dealing with 881 00:38:15,910 --> 00:38:13,850 with extraterrestrials or aliens or 882 00:38:18,340 --> 00:38:15,920 ultra terrestrials in this case why 883 00:38:20,560 --> 00:38:18,350 don't we try to get tapped in mmm so 884 00:38:24,310 --> 00:38:20,570 that was that thought process there yeah 885 00:38:28,480 --> 00:38:24,320 and you that sort of bleeds into Carl in 886 00:38:30,790 --> 00:38:28,490 his his influence and contributions this 887 00:38:34,330 --> 00:38:30,800 season not only shooting a beautiful 888 00:38:37,090 --> 00:38:34,340 series but also going under himself 889 00:38:39,610 --> 00:38:37,100 again putting himself out there like all 890 00:38:45,960 --> 00:38:39,620 he did throughout this season and he had 891 00:38:53,500 --> 00:38:51,010 gateways you know this whole ultra 892 00:38:57,430 --> 00:38:53,510 terrestrial extraterrestrial 893 00:38:59,620 --> 00:38:57,440 I don't even know I can't find words to 894 00:39:02,290 --> 00:38:59,630 describe anything I'm trying to ask guys 895 00:39:05,170 --> 00:39:02,300 and I think that's how here equal listen 896 00:39:08,470 --> 00:39:05,180 let me letters let me provide context 897 00:39:11,110 --> 00:39:08,480 for this please do because I am strong 898 00:39:12,670 --> 00:39:11,120 we decided to do this when we decided to 899 00:39:15,700 --> 00:39:12,680 do this there are a few reasons and one 900 00:39:17,680 --> 00:39:15,710 of them was at the time we thought that 901 00:39:20,170 --> 00:39:17,690 one of the the emails that Terry wrists 902 00:39:22,060 --> 00:39:20,180 had sent you know there were you there 903 00:39:23,710 --> 00:39:22,070 were coordinate points in it that's what 904 00:39:26,200 --> 00:39:23,720 we believed that these were coordinate 905 00:39:28,180 --> 00:39:26,210 points to Brown Mountain and one of the 906 00:39:30,850 --> 00:39:28,190 things that Connor jogged loose in one 907 00:39:32,620 --> 00:39:30,860 of our interviews was is there anything 908 00:39:35,080 --> 00:39:32,630 else that you could have been doing at 909 00:39:37,630 --> 00:39:35,090 Brown Mountain well the reason that we 910 00:39:39,250 --> 00:39:37,640 went to brown Mountain was to try and 911 00:39:40,810 --> 00:39:39,260 get abducted by aliens 912 00:39:42,970 --> 00:39:40,820 but alien cave based thing you know 913 00:39:44,620 --> 00:39:42,980 hanging out with Micah Hanks you know it 914 00:39:47,620 --> 00:39:44,630 was just an offhand comment you know 915 00:39:49,750 --> 00:39:47,630 somewhat sarcastic that Micah Hanks had 916 00:39:51,070 --> 00:39:49,760 had made about oh there's this person 917 00:39:52,930 --> 00:39:51,080 who thinks there's an alien cave base 918 00:39:56,290 --> 00:39:52,940 here and we just my brains just went Oh 919 00:39:58,300 --> 00:39:56,300 Helier we weren't there for that we were 920 00:40:00,970 --> 00:39:58,310 there to try and get abducted and so 921 00:40:03,250 --> 00:40:00,980 that that put a new context for those 922 00:40:05,260 --> 00:40:03,260 emails that said why did you stop when 923 00:40:07,390 --> 00:40:05,270 you were so close in coordinates that 924 00:40:10,180 --> 00:40:07,400 appeared to be a brown mountain so 925 00:40:11,620 --> 00:40:10,190 that's part of the reason we did this we 926 00:40:14,050 --> 00:40:11,630 thought maybe we were supposed to do 927 00:40:16,780 --> 00:40:14,060 this and then when it came to actually 928 00:40:18,840 --> 00:40:16,790 doing this experiment again we did it we 929 00:40:22,420 --> 00:40:18,850 did it a little bit differently because 930 00:40:25,740 --> 00:40:22,430 the experiment we'd done with Jason 931 00:40:28,030 --> 00:40:25,750 didn't end very well he actually 932 00:40:30,460 --> 00:40:28,040 genuinely started to believe that he had 933 00:40:34,349 --> 00:40:30,470 been abducted by aliens and had to work 934 00:40:38,260 --> 00:40:34,359 with Lani for a long time afterwards to 935 00:40:39,849 --> 00:40:38,270 erase it more or less we interviewed him 936 00:40:42,780 --> 00:40:39,859 years later which people see in season 937 00:40:44,890 --> 00:40:42,790 two and not only does he believe in 938 00:40:47,980 --> 00:40:44,900 extraterrestrials which he did not 939 00:40:50,380 --> 00:40:47,990 before he had a fear of 940 00:40:53,890 --> 00:40:50,390 extraterrestrials like he got nervous at 941 00:40:56,830 --> 00:40:53,900 the very discussion of this experiment 942 00:40:58,810 --> 00:40:56,840 so it had changed his personality in a 943 00:41:01,300 --> 00:40:58,820 fundamental way we didn't want to do who 944 00:41:03,220 --> 00:41:01,310 that exactly again so we kind of 945 00:41:06,340 --> 00:41:03,230 reworked it a little bit and when it 946 00:41:08,260 --> 00:41:06,350 came time to choose who was gonna go it 947 00:41:11,260 --> 00:41:08,270 really came down to Karl and Connor 948 00:41:13,660 --> 00:41:11,270 because it's I don't think it's secret 949 00:41:16,480 --> 00:41:13,670 Karl and Connor are the most objective 950 00:41:18,160 --> 00:41:16,490 people on the team it obviously wasn't 951 00:41:21,580 --> 00:41:18,170 gonna be strand cuz his brains filled 952 00:41:24,130 --> 00:41:21,590 with all kinds of funky ideas and Dana 953 00:41:25,480 --> 00:41:24,140 and I are you know I'm paranoid so my 954 00:41:27,460 --> 00:41:25,490 thought is well I'm gonna have a bad 955 00:41:29,740 --> 00:41:27,470 experience if I do this I'm already a 956 00:41:32,200 --> 00:41:29,750 paranoid person there's too much I had 957 00:41:35,050 --> 00:41:32,210 too much fear in my brain at that time 958 00:41:37,240 --> 00:41:35,060 there's no way and you know do Dana 959 00:41:41,020 --> 00:41:37,250 you know she's she's a very magical 960 00:41:42,520 --> 00:41:41,030 thinker so when it comes to who's the 961 00:41:44,380 --> 00:41:42,530 audience going to trust for this 962 00:41:45,370 --> 00:41:44,390 experience it came down to well Karl is 963 00:41:48,760 --> 00:41:45,380 the eyes of the audience 964 00:41:52,600 --> 00:41:48,770 he's de-facto the most objective person 965 00:41:56,170 --> 00:41:52,610 out of all of us so sending him 966 00:41:58,870 --> 00:41:56,180 like the right idea and his experience 967 00:42:00,760 --> 00:41:58,880 was very strange there was a lot of 968 00:42:03,310 --> 00:42:00,770 weird stuff that came up with like you 969 00:42:05,710 --> 00:42:03,320 know that were potentially opening 970 00:42:09,670 --> 00:42:05,720 gateways but I think the weirder thing 971 00:42:12,510 --> 00:42:09,680 to me is the fact that he functionally 972 00:42:17,820 --> 00:42:12,520 predicted the future while he was under 973 00:42:21,220 --> 00:42:17,830 that's insanity right right yeah it's 974 00:42:23,320 --> 00:42:21,230 again it's so hard to like to talk about 975 00:42:27,400 --> 00:42:23,330 this without giving anything away but 976 00:42:28,720 --> 00:42:27,410 yeah it was a moment of Revelation that 977 00:42:30,850 --> 00:42:28,730 I think people have to see for 978 00:42:34,240 --> 00:42:30,860 themselves but for sure Greg you do 979 00:42:36,520 --> 00:42:34,250 mention Dana she is like this super star 980 00:42:41,200 --> 00:42:36,530 of the back half of this season I was 981 00:42:44,410 --> 00:42:41,210 she is right my god when I saw the sort 982 00:42:47,200 --> 00:42:44,420 of the witch and Dana teasing in the 983 00:42:50,050 --> 00:42:47,210 first season she went full-blown witch 984 00:42:52,570 --> 00:42:50,060 this time and anything it brought it 985 00:42:56,320 --> 00:42:52,580 brought some of the biggest revelations 986 00:42:58,900 --> 00:42:56,330 of the entire season again that you guys 987 00:43:00,520 --> 00:42:58,910 kind of walked out of with season 2 so 988 00:43:03,370 --> 00:43:00,530 again I we don't want to give away the 989 00:43:06,930 --> 00:43:03,380 big the big reveals but what was it like 990 00:43:11,590 --> 00:43:06,940 stepping into her world you had a very 991 00:43:14,290 --> 00:43:11,600 personal experience with the stuff that 992 00:43:16,870 --> 00:43:14,300 Dana was doing this season so what was 993 00:43:19,630 --> 00:43:16,880 that like I mean I'm I'm fairly used to 994 00:43:21,460 --> 00:43:19,640 it oh yeah because you know she's she's 995 00:43:22,990 --> 00:43:21,470 my wife some people think she's my 996 00:43:26,250 --> 00:43:23,000 sister we have a White Stripes thing 997 00:43:29,770 --> 00:43:26,260 going on so people aren't really sure 998 00:43:32,020 --> 00:43:29,780 but I'm fairly used to it because this 999 00:43:33,910 --> 00:43:32,030 is you know that's who Dana is if 1000 00:43:36,100 --> 00:43:33,920 anything she toned it down a lot in the 1001 00:43:38,470 --> 00:43:36,110 first season which I think has a lot to 1002 00:43:40,720 --> 00:43:38,480 do with the fact that when we shot the 1003 00:43:43,120 --> 00:43:40,730 first season we didn't really know Karl 1004 00:43:45,490 --> 00:43:43,130 and Connor very well and now we're like 1005 00:43:47,170 --> 00:43:45,500 super great best friends you know we we 1006 00:43:48,760 --> 00:43:47,180 are on the chat line talking to each 1007 00:43:51,070 --> 00:43:48,770 other every day where we're going 1008 00:43:53,530 --> 00:43:51,080 through a very an experience that has 1009 00:43:56,430 --> 00:43:53,540 bonded us so it's a different thing and 1010 00:43:58,960 --> 00:43:56,440 I think because of that we all kind of 1011 00:44:01,600 --> 00:43:58,970 let our guards down around each other 1012 00:44:04,270 --> 00:44:01,610 now so we know we know who each other 1013 00:44:06,520 --> 00:44:04,280 are and we've accepted who each other 1014 00:44:10,960 --> 00:44:06,530 are and a big part of that is Dana 1015 00:44:13,630 --> 00:44:10,970 being a pagan being a witch and I think 1016 00:44:16,600 --> 00:44:13,640 the more interesting question is for 1017 00:44:18,850 --> 00:44:16,610 someone like Connor who is about 1018 00:44:21,700 --> 00:44:18,860 Catholic and and Connor had to do a lot 1019 00:44:23,560 --> 00:44:21,710 of stuff that was very obviously 1020 00:44:25,150 --> 00:44:23,570 uncomfortable for him in the second 1021 00:44:27,730 --> 00:44:25,160 season because I don't think the rest of 1022 00:44:29,920 --> 00:44:27,740 us I mean listen I was raised 1023 00:44:34,270 --> 00:44:29,930 my dad's a Baptist minister I'm an 1024 00:44:36,130 --> 00:44:34,280 ordained minister he's not a huge fan of 1025 00:44:38,380 --> 00:44:36,140 the stuff that I'm into and I mean I 1026 00:44:41,890 --> 00:44:38,390 think I'm I'm I'm I guess I'm 1027 00:44:44,590 --> 00:44:41,900 functionally pagan these days which is a 1028 00:44:47,260 --> 00:44:44,600 big deal you know for someone you know 1029 00:44:48,880 --> 00:44:47,270 as religious as a religious person you 1030 00:44:50,830 --> 00:44:48,890 know that the further you get away from 1031 00:44:52,900 --> 00:44:50,840 your belief system that you were raised 1032 00:44:54,970 --> 00:44:52,910 with particularly if you're a Christian 1033 00:44:57,040 --> 00:44:54,980 there's always that little voice in the 1034 00:45:00,010 --> 00:44:57,050 back of your head that says oh you're 1035 00:45:03,130 --> 00:45:00,020 going to hell for this you know like you 1036 00:45:05,050 --> 00:45:03,140 know that that voice doesn't really 1037 00:45:08,530 --> 00:45:05,060 exist for me anymore after 1038 00:45:11,050 --> 00:45:08,540 hell you're to which people can figure 1039 00:45:12,610 --> 00:45:11,060 that out themselves but I think it's 1040 00:45:16,030 --> 00:45:12,620 more interesting to hear what Connor has 1041 00:45:17,530 --> 00:45:16,040 to say about having to be parts of a lot 1042 00:45:19,930 --> 00:45:17,540 of this stuff that's kind of 1043 00:45:23,200 --> 00:45:19,940 uncomfortable yeah please Congress you 1044 00:45:28,180 --> 00:45:23,210 share that with us no it's a good 1045 00:45:30,520 --> 00:45:28,190 question you know I I think and I and I 1046 00:45:32,230 --> 00:45:30,530 in a way I thought of a lot of the stuff 1047 00:45:35,320 --> 00:45:32,240 that Dana was doing as sort of being 1048 00:45:37,870 --> 00:45:35,330 like a megaphone where it's like Hello 1049 00:45:39,720 --> 00:45:37,880 phenomena like we are right here you 1050 00:45:42,400 --> 00:45:39,730 know so she's very good at sort of 1051 00:45:44,170 --> 00:45:42,410 giving these energies out into the world 1052 00:45:47,350 --> 00:45:44,180 through her own means and she's very 1053 00:45:50,890 --> 00:45:47,360 skilled at that sort of opening doorways 1054 00:45:52,900 --> 00:45:50,900 to communication so the curious seeker 1055 00:45:54,370 --> 00:45:52,910 in me was was interested to see what 1056 00:45:57,340 --> 00:45:54,380 happens 1057 00:46:01,300 --> 00:45:57,350 I think the sort of religious side of me 1058 00:46:03,430 --> 00:46:01,310 in a weird way felt some some comfort 1059 00:46:08,620 --> 00:46:03,440 and some intimidation off of what had 1060 00:46:10,540 --> 00:46:08,630 happened in episode 9 right but also you 1061 00:46:12,450 --> 00:46:10,550 know I think I was able to bring in a 1062 00:46:16,630 --> 00:46:12,460 little bit of my belief system as well 1063 00:46:19,060 --> 00:46:16,640 in some ways and I think that you know 1064 00:46:20,350 --> 00:46:19,070 there's a lot of more similarities than 1065 00:46:23,440 --> 00:46:20,360 people give credit 1066 00:46:25,300 --> 00:46:23,450 I think that Dana and I baby do come 1067 00:46:28,000 --> 00:46:25,310 from different ends of a spectrum but we 1068 00:46:29,620 --> 00:46:28,010 both meditate you know maybe when she's 1069 00:46:31,000 --> 00:46:29,630 meditating it's something else or she's 1070 00:46:33,160 --> 00:46:31,010 doing different chants you know when I 1071 00:46:35,140 --> 00:46:33,170 if I were to say the Rosary or something 1072 00:46:38,590 --> 00:46:35,150 like that it's it's very sort of similar 1073 00:46:40,990 --> 00:46:38,600 in that aspect in addition you know that 1074 00:46:42,220 --> 00:46:41,000 my faith system has our faith system 1075 00:46:44,470 --> 00:46:42,230 right has a whole bunch of strange 1076 00:46:47,050 --> 00:46:44,480 miraculous happenings throughout so I 1077 00:46:50,020 --> 00:46:47,060 think being a curious person I was like 1078 00:46:53,050 --> 00:46:50,030 okay let's let's see what happens I feel 1079 00:46:54,900 --> 00:46:53,060 you know protected and and comfortable 1080 00:46:57,730 --> 00:46:54,910 enough to sit here and be like well 1081 00:47:00,910 --> 00:46:57,740 something's talking to us let's see what 1082 00:47:03,820 --> 00:47:00,920 it is right you know there is a quote 1083 00:47:06,220 --> 00:47:03,830 and I want to attribute it to Father 1084 00:47:09,070 --> 00:47:06,230 Malachi Martin anyone who's a big 1085 00:47:10,800 --> 00:47:09,080 coast-to-coast am fan remembers Malachi 1086 00:47:13,090 --> 00:47:10,810 Martin some of the scariest episodes 1087 00:47:15,400 --> 00:47:13,100 wrote a book called hostage to the devil 1088 00:47:18,190 --> 00:47:15,410 and it was all about exorcisms 1089 00:47:20,710 --> 00:47:18,200 I want to attribute it to him forgive me 1090 00:47:22,930 --> 00:47:20,720 if I'm wrong but he said something once 1091 00:47:24,970 --> 00:47:22,940 somebody asked him you know well I'm of 1092 00:47:27,760 --> 00:47:24,980 this faith you know you work with people 1093 00:47:29,800 --> 00:47:27,770 of different faiths what how do you 1094 00:47:32,560 --> 00:47:29,810 reconcile this and he said there are 1095 00:47:35,290 --> 00:47:32,570 many paths to God and I like to think 1096 00:47:37,330 --> 00:47:35,300 about that because I think that I really 1097 00:47:39,580 --> 00:47:37,340 do think that's true I think we all have 1098 00:47:43,240 --> 00:47:39,590 our own path to the divine whatever we 1099 00:47:46,560 --> 00:47:43,250 decide the divine is and it's just again 1100 00:47:50,050 --> 00:47:46,570 it's that idea right of different lenses 1101 00:47:53,050 --> 00:47:50,060 viewing the same thing greatly and I 1102 00:47:56,020 --> 00:47:53,060 mean that's a beautiful even visual to 1103 00:47:59,800 --> 00:47:56,030 look at many paths to God you know I 1104 00:48:02,560 --> 00:47:59,810 mean no matter what your faith is in 1105 00:48:05,650 --> 00:48:02,570 somebody a mystery person who will 1106 00:48:08,680 --> 00:48:05,660 remain nameless says this later in your 1107 00:48:13,210 --> 00:48:08,690 series sometimes simpler is better and 1108 00:48:15,130 --> 00:48:13,220 when you look at that there's many paths 1109 00:48:17,880 --> 00:48:15,140 to get to the same sort of end point 1110 00:48:21,460 --> 00:48:17,890 it's so true you can make things as 1111 00:48:23,020 --> 00:48:21,470 difficult and complex as you want but at 1112 00:48:26,290 --> 00:48:23,030 the core of it like we're all trying to 1113 00:48:28,960 --> 00:48:26,300 get to the same thing but isn't that 1114 00:48:32,350 --> 00:48:28,970 really the story of Hellyer yes exactly 1115 00:48:33,890 --> 00:48:32,360 right we took so many paths but they all 1116 00:48:35,960 --> 00:48:33,900 seem to be leading to the same place 1117 00:48:38,420 --> 00:48:35,970 no matter how hard we try and take 1118 00:48:41,870 --> 00:48:38,430 another path it just reroute sit self 1119 00:48:43,370 --> 00:48:41,880 yeah yeah sort of wrapping up my my 1120 00:48:45,950 --> 00:48:43,380 personal questions guys have got some 1121 00:48:47,750 --> 00:48:45,960 awesome listener questions um Connor I 1122 00:48:48,830 --> 00:48:47,760 gotta ask you man uh more than the 1123 00:48:51,260 --> 00:48:48,840 technical side 1124 00:48:55,880 --> 00:48:51,270 I remember seeing photos of you and Carl 1125 00:48:58,700 --> 00:48:55,890 editing this beast of a project how how 1126 00:49:01,610 --> 00:48:58,710 in the hell do you begin to even string 1127 00:49:03,830 --> 00:49:01,620 together like a cohesive narrative or 1128 00:49:07,880 --> 00:49:03,840 story with everything you got shot I 1129 00:49:10,820 --> 00:49:07,890 would imagine like 30% of what you shot 1130 00:49:13,850 --> 00:49:10,830 is what we're seeing in the season yeah 1131 00:49:16,610 --> 00:49:13,860 absolutely there was you know we have 1132 00:49:18,950 --> 00:49:16,620 iPhone footage on all of our respective 1133 00:49:20,960 --> 00:49:18,960 phones that goes back to years you know 1134 00:49:22,880 --> 00:49:20,970 that we had to sort of pick and choose 1135 00:49:27,320 --> 00:49:22,890 how we're going to tell the story of 1136 00:49:29,510 --> 00:49:27,330 this insane case I will say you know 90% 1137 00:49:31,340 --> 00:49:29,520 of that falls on Carl he's the guy with 1138 00:49:32,930 --> 00:49:31,350 the footage and the guy with the clips 1139 00:49:36,110 --> 00:49:32,940 and the audio that's piecing it all 1140 00:49:39,950 --> 00:49:36,120 together in this brilliant way and he 1141 00:49:40,660 --> 00:49:39,960 spent night after night for a year and a 1142 00:49:43,340 --> 00:49:40,670 half 1143 00:49:46,640 --> 00:49:43,350 piecing this entire thing together a lot 1144 00:49:48,410 --> 00:49:46,650 of the front work happens you know 1145 00:49:50,540 --> 00:49:48,420 somebody had asked me this on Twitter as 1146 00:49:54,050 --> 00:49:50,550 well how do we keep these thoughts sort 1147 00:49:57,200 --> 00:49:54,060 of organized Carl and I chat would chat 1148 00:49:59,060 --> 00:49:57,210 and basically sort of we would write out 1149 00:50:00,830 --> 00:49:59,070 some questions for different interviews 1150 00:50:04,670 --> 00:50:00,840 that we want to get from everybody and 1151 00:50:06,980 --> 00:50:04,680 we would ask Greg Dana Tyler a lot of 1152 00:50:09,920 --> 00:50:06,990 the same questions and then what would 1153 00:50:12,500 --> 00:50:09,930 happen is they would give the answers we 1154 00:50:14,270 --> 00:50:12,510 would do Carl would create rough cuts of 1155 00:50:16,220 --> 00:50:14,280 the episodes and then we we could 1156 00:50:19,250 --> 00:50:16,230 clearly see where some blanks were and 1157 00:50:21,110 --> 00:50:19,260 so it would be like okay Connor can you 1158 00:50:23,000 --> 00:50:21,120 explain what this is you know we just 1159 00:50:25,700 --> 00:50:23,010 mentioned this we don't understand so I 1160 00:50:27,680 --> 00:50:25,710 sort of get the benefit of looking like 1161 00:50:31,760 --> 00:50:27,690 somebody who really knows exactly 1162 00:50:34,040 --> 00:50:31,770 everything I'm the last interview you 1163 00:50:38,270 --> 00:50:34,050 know who's like filling in all of the 1164 00:50:39,260 --> 00:50:38,280 plants and so it's it's a it's quite a 1165 00:50:42,160 --> 00:50:39,270 beast 1166 00:50:44,960 --> 00:50:42,170 to try and edit and Carl did a 1167 00:50:46,370 --> 00:50:44,970 fantastically good job and Greg did a 1168 00:50:47,120 --> 00:50:46,380 great job leading the interviews with 1169 00:50:48,710 --> 00:50:47,130 the witnesses and 1170 00:50:50,570 --> 00:50:48,720 Fields and I would write down all the 1171 00:50:52,130 --> 00:50:50,580 answers they were giving and highlight 1172 00:50:54,950 --> 00:50:52,140 different sections that I knew you know 1173 00:50:57,830 --> 00:50:54,960 would be good and things like that yeah 1174 00:51:00,770 --> 00:50:57,840 I think it has to be said hmm while on 1175 00:51:03,020 --> 00:51:00,780 the topic of this the when when Carl 1176 00:51:05,630 --> 00:51:03,030 said I want to release this November 1177 00:51:09,740 --> 00:51:05,640 29th I actually said to him are you nuts 1178 00:51:13,540 --> 00:51:09,750 I could not believe that he had because 1179 00:51:16,520 --> 00:51:13,550 here's the thing we we created two 1180 00:51:19,040 --> 00:51:16,530 seasons of a television show in a year 1181 00:51:22,430 --> 00:51:19,050 and the second one was twice as long as 1182 00:51:25,130 --> 00:51:22,440 the first one it's crazy to me that that 1183 00:51:29,150 --> 00:51:25,140 happened and so I think it really speaks 1184 00:51:32,090 --> 00:51:29,160 to the dedication and passion of Carl 1185 00:51:33,500 --> 00:51:32,100 and Conor like they they you know I was 1186 00:51:36,560 --> 00:51:33,510 a little jealous cuz they had camp 1187 00:51:38,450 --> 00:51:36,570 Helier for like a week where where Carl 1188 00:51:41,000 --> 00:51:38,460 brought all of his equipment over to 1189 00:51:44,120 --> 00:51:41,010 Conor's house and all they did was they 1190 00:51:46,640 --> 00:51:44,130 sat there and they edited and they they 1191 00:51:48,140 --> 00:51:46,650 brought Anthony the who did the score 1192 00:51:52,300 --> 00:51:48,150 they brought him over to fill in the 1193 00:51:54,800 --> 00:51:52,310 gaps and did so much work in just a week 1194 00:51:56,990 --> 00:51:54,810 because it had to be uploaded to Amazon 1195 00:52:00,410 --> 00:51:57,000 you know like two week with two weeks so 1196 00:52:02,510 --> 00:52:00,420 that they could review it it's insane 1197 00:52:04,960 --> 00:52:02,520 the amount of work particularly that 1198 00:52:07,310 --> 00:52:04,970 Carl and Conor did over the last year 1199 00:52:09,710 --> 00:52:07,320 absolutely and I mean I I know from 1200 00:52:12,080 --> 00:52:09,720 experience like that's no easy feat and 1201 00:52:15,110 --> 00:52:12,090 I mean meanwhile Carl was also working 1202 00:52:17,480 --> 00:52:15,120 with you phonetic travelling the country 1203 00:52:20,150 --> 00:52:17,490 doing that as well so I mean it's it's 1204 00:52:22,700 --> 00:52:20,160 it is insane that the timetable you guys 1205 00:52:24,920 --> 00:52:22,710 were able to do this in to get it out at 1206 00:52:27,520 --> 00:52:24,930 that deadline you set for yourselves and 1207 00:52:31,250 --> 00:52:27,530 also could you could you mention the the 1208 00:52:34,190 --> 00:52:31,260 score is again for us who did that 1209 00:52:36,470 --> 00:52:34,200 because my god that the score drove this 1210 00:52:37,520 --> 00:52:36,480 thing so well I was listening with 1211 00:52:40,340 --> 00:52:37,530 stereo headphones 1212 00:52:42,950 --> 00:52:40,350 and there are some little little things 1213 00:52:46,820 --> 00:52:42,960 in the background that I think if you 1214 00:52:50,630 --> 00:52:46,830 catch they add so much to it yeah so the 1215 00:52:54,880 --> 00:52:50,640 score was created by one of my bandmate 1216 00:52:58,670 --> 00:52:54,890 says his name is Anthony so stone he is 1217 00:53:00,529 --> 00:52:58,680 sort of a master of melody that I'm 1218 00:53:04,029 --> 00:53:00,539 really proud to know and 1219 00:53:06,140 --> 00:53:04,039 call a good friend so he essentially 1220 00:53:08,509 --> 00:53:06,150 created it based off of our 1221 00:53:11,959 --> 00:53:08,519 recommendations for scenes one of the 1222 00:53:14,089 --> 00:53:11,969 more difficult things that has to happen 1223 00:53:16,579 --> 00:53:14,099 during editing that they Carl did a lot 1224 00:53:18,979 --> 00:53:16,589 of is like you you watch it scene and 1225 00:53:21,949 --> 00:53:18,989 it's hard to tell where music should be 1226 00:53:23,870 --> 00:53:21,959 and where it shouldn't you know in order 1227 00:53:26,359 --> 00:53:23,880 to create a natural sort of narrative 1228 00:53:28,400 --> 00:53:26,369 way to do this so we would have these 1229 00:53:31,489 --> 00:53:28,410 sections and then Carl would sort of 1230 00:53:33,380 --> 00:53:31,499 siphon to me say this this part needs 1231 00:53:35,779 --> 00:53:33,390 something this part needs something and 1232 00:53:38,499 --> 00:53:35,789 then I would sort of provide Anthony 1233 00:53:41,659 --> 00:53:38,509 with these vague descriptors and and 1234 00:53:44,179 --> 00:53:41,669 different tones and possibilities and he 1235 00:53:46,219 --> 00:53:44,189 would send over four or five different 1236 00:53:47,779 --> 00:53:46,229 drafts of these songs until we sort of 1237 00:53:51,380 --> 00:53:47,789 put it in and Carl put it in was like 1238 00:53:53,150 --> 00:53:51,390 yep that's it and and so that is that 1239 00:53:55,849 --> 00:53:53,160 the way that that process worked over 1240 00:53:58,549 --> 00:53:55,859 the last six months or so in addition we 1241 00:54:00,799 --> 00:53:58,559 have a lot of great bands that were 1242 00:54:03,919 --> 00:54:00,809 willing to licence us some of their 1243 00:54:07,370 --> 00:54:03,929 music that really helps drive some of 1244 00:54:10,009 --> 00:54:07,380 the more intense moments so I was really 1245 00:54:12,559 --> 00:54:10,019 really proud of the way the soundtrack 1246 00:54:13,519 --> 00:54:12,569 came out yeah yeah it really brought a 1247 00:54:15,949 --> 00:54:13,529 whole other level 1248 00:54:16,880 --> 00:54:15,959 I know sunspot was one of them big 1249 00:54:19,339 --> 00:54:16,890 friends of theirs 1250 00:54:22,789 --> 00:54:19,349 so yeah you guys did a wonderful job 1251 00:54:25,039 --> 00:54:22,799 with that now moving to some listener 1252 00:54:27,469 --> 00:54:25,049 questions these are fun so our first 1253 00:54:28,939 --> 00:54:27,479 question comes from oh he this guy 1254 00:54:30,469 --> 00:54:28,949 definitely is not the first time he's 1255 00:54:36,380 --> 00:54:30,479 watched it Brice Johnson over at the 1256 00:54:39,559 --> 00:54:36,390 Bigfoot collectors of he asks where can 1257 00:54:43,640 --> 00:54:39,569 I find a reader's list or book list to 1258 00:54:45,349 --> 00:54:43,650 accompany Helier season two oh god we've 1259 00:54:46,909 --> 00:54:45,359 talked about this I think Connor was 1260 00:54:48,829 --> 00:54:46,919 especially concerned with putting one 1261 00:54:49,880 --> 00:54:48,839 together I think that's something you 1262 00:54:52,309 --> 00:54:49,890 know there's there's some unofficial 1263 00:54:53,539 --> 00:54:52,319 lists that are going on right now if you 1264 00:54:55,699 --> 00:54:53,549 scroll Twitter there's people who've 1265 00:54:57,679 --> 00:54:55,709 literally they've they've taken it upon 1266 00:54:59,479 --> 00:54:57,689 themselves to put together Amazon lists 1267 00:55:01,640 --> 00:54:59,489 so that you can look at it and just go 1268 00:55:03,739 --> 00:55:01,650 and get the book that you want but I 1269 00:55:05,809 --> 00:55:03,749 think we probably should put together an 1270 00:55:07,699 --> 00:55:05,819 official list full of stuff from maybe 1271 00:55:09,939 --> 00:55:07,709 seasons 1 & 2 what do you think Connor 1272 00:55:11,959 --> 00:55:09,949 yeah let's do it we'll do it this week 1273 00:55:14,370 --> 00:55:11,969 yeah like you guys don't have enough 1274 00:55:17,349 --> 00:55:14,380 going on you 1275 00:55:19,299 --> 00:55:17,359 what we want people to read that's like 1276 00:55:20,289 --> 00:55:19,309 it's funny I was I was arguing with 1277 00:55:22,210 --> 00:55:20,299 someone on Twitter today 1278 00:55:24,819 --> 00:55:22,220 and I said Hellyer's a show about 1279 00:55:26,680 --> 00:55:24,829 reading mm-hmm legitimately like it's 1280 00:55:29,410 --> 00:55:26,690 it's made more people go out and buy 1281 00:55:32,589 --> 00:55:29,420 books than any paranormal show I can I 1282 00:55:34,359 --> 00:55:32,599 can think of oh and if that's the if 1283 00:55:36,430 --> 00:55:34,369 that's the most that he'll your achieves 1284 00:55:38,890 --> 00:55:36,440 I think that's a fairly awesome thing 1285 00:55:41,049 --> 00:55:38,900 that people are going and buying books 1286 00:55:43,299 --> 00:55:41,059 and reading absolutely man we're gonna 1287 00:55:45,930 --> 00:55:43,309 get you guys on PBS to another Reading 1288 00:55:51,640 --> 00:55:49,239 MJ binaya so beretta tera obscura he 1289 00:55:54,220 --> 00:55:51,650 asks Connor a lot of people are 1290 00:55:56,140 --> 00:55:54,230 interested in the the Estes method and 1291 00:55:59,249 --> 00:55:56,150 what it's like being plugged into that 1292 00:56:01,509 --> 00:55:59,259 experiment so would you mind maybe I 1293 00:56:04,289 --> 00:56:01,519 know this is hard but give me like a 1294 00:56:06,549 --> 00:56:04,299 Cliff Notes version of what this is and 1295 00:56:08,620 --> 00:56:06,559 describe its purpose and what it 1296 00:56:11,890 --> 00:56:08,630 physically and mentally feels like when 1297 00:56:15,489 --> 00:56:11,900 you're doing that yeah the estes method 1298 00:56:19,089 --> 00:56:15,499 is something that carl our friend 1299 00:56:21,009 --> 00:56:19,099 Michelle and myself created while we 1300 00:56:23,289 --> 00:56:21,019 were working at the Stanley Hotel in 1301 00:56:25,960 --> 00:56:23,299 Estes Park Colorado 1302 00:56:29,499 --> 00:56:25,970 basically it combines a few different 1303 00:56:33,160 --> 00:56:29,509 things devices and things together to 1304 00:56:36,910 --> 00:56:33,170 allow for potential spirit or other 1305 00:56:38,460 --> 00:56:36,920 worldly etc communication basically what 1306 00:56:42,130 --> 00:56:38,470 we're doing is we're taking a simple 1307 00:56:45,729 --> 00:56:42,140 spirit box and in sb7 spirit box we're 1308 00:56:47,309 --> 00:56:45,739 plugging it in to totally sound really 1309 00:56:49,720 --> 00:56:47,319 well sound proofed headphones 1310 00:56:52,150 --> 00:56:49,730 drummers headphones which is an 1311 00:56:54,339 --> 00:56:52,160 essential part so that the the person 1312 00:56:56,349 --> 00:56:54,349 who's listening to the box cannot hear 1313 00:56:58,390 --> 00:56:56,359 anything that's going on around them 1314 00:57:00,489 --> 00:56:58,400 except for the box and then you 1315 00:57:02,499 --> 00:57:00,499 blindfold that person so that they're 1316 00:57:04,839 --> 00:57:02,509 completely isolated solely with the 1317 00:57:07,509 --> 00:57:04,849 sound of this spirit box you let the 1318 00:57:11,229 --> 00:57:07,519 person sit and listen and then they just 1319 00:57:13,690 --> 00:57:11,239 purely act as a megaphone saying the 1320 00:57:17,229 --> 00:57:13,700 words that they're hearing coming across 1321 00:57:19,599 --> 00:57:17,239 the device we started it because we got 1322 00:57:21,309 --> 00:57:19,609 tired of using spirit boxes when we were 1323 00:57:23,620 --> 00:57:21,319 looking for ghosts in the traditional 1324 00:57:26,170 --> 00:57:23,630 format Carl and I used to go around and 1325 00:57:28,270 --> 00:57:26,180 have people do tours with us and 1326 00:57:30,040 --> 00:57:28,280 felt like they weren't very legitimate 1327 00:57:31,960 --> 00:57:30,050 devices because people were hearing what 1328 00:57:34,150 --> 00:57:31,970 they wanted so it was like well let's 1329 00:57:38,080 --> 00:57:34,160 just have one person listen and then 1330 00:57:40,150 --> 00:57:38,090 suddenly that person a lot of people who 1331 00:57:43,630 --> 00:57:40,160 try it on seem to enter some sort of 1332 00:57:48,340 --> 00:57:43,640 bizarre psychical framework of mind 1333 00:57:50,470 --> 00:57:48,350 where they just become this I don't know 1334 00:57:52,180 --> 00:57:50,480 this transmutation occurs and it's and 1335 00:57:54,550 --> 00:57:52,190 it's very bizarre and it's something we 1336 00:57:56,560 --> 00:57:54,560 tried in Hellyer one works really well 1337 00:58:00,220 --> 00:57:56,570 and so we tried it a few different ways 1338 00:58:03,790 --> 00:58:00,230 in Hellyer - yeah yeah with some really 1339 00:58:06,040 --> 00:58:03,800 interesting results for sure so Rob 1340 00:58:09,340 --> 00:58:06,050 Kristofferson from the our strange skies 1341 00:58:11,110 --> 00:58:09,350 podcast he asks you guys is there any 1342 00:58:13,360 --> 00:58:11,120 footage that didn't make it into the 1343 00:58:16,300 --> 00:58:13,370 series that you wish had made it in I 1344 00:58:18,250 --> 00:58:16,310 know that's probably a lot but um yeah 1345 00:58:21,490 --> 00:58:18,260 anything really specific stand out to 1346 00:58:24,930 --> 00:58:21,500 either of you in terms of that holy cow 1347 00:58:28,390 --> 00:58:24,940 I know should we should we talk about 1348 00:58:30,430 --> 00:58:28,400 hypnosis stuff literally that's 1349 00:58:32,590 --> 00:58:30,440 literally what I was just gonna say nice 1350 00:58:36,040 --> 00:58:32,600 go you take this one Connor because this 1351 00:58:41,590 --> 00:58:36,050 is personal so when we did the hypnosis 1352 00:58:44,610 --> 00:58:41,600 experiment I went under as well but it 1353 00:58:47,890 --> 00:58:44,620 turned into a very personal experience 1354 00:58:49,720 --> 00:58:47,900 and also a very like it didn't 1355 00:58:51,550 --> 00:58:49,730 necessarily seem like there was so much 1356 00:58:56,680 --> 00:58:51,560 alien contact or contact with the 1357 00:58:58,270 --> 00:58:56,690 phenomena compared to Karl stuff I like 1358 00:59:01,270 --> 00:58:58,280 I said sort of practice some meditation 1359 00:59:04,660 --> 00:59:01,280 and practice the Estes method so maybe I 1360 00:59:06,040 --> 00:59:04,670 had good lubricant or whatever you want 1361 00:59:07,780 --> 00:59:06,050 to call it to just like kind of fall 1362 00:59:08,230 --> 00:59:07,790 under and it seemed like that's what 1363 00:59:13,360 --> 00:59:08,240 happened 1364 00:59:15,820 --> 00:59:13,370 it was pretty freaky to watch and I did 1365 00:59:17,980 --> 00:59:15,830 see an image at one point that may be 1366 00:59:21,610 --> 00:59:17,990 related to the case later on at least we 1367 00:59:23,830 --> 00:59:21,620 have the footage if we need it but yeah 1368 00:59:25,840 --> 00:59:23,840 putting Carl's in felt more relevant to 1369 00:59:28,120 --> 00:59:25,850 the storyline but mine was still 1370 00:59:31,120 --> 00:59:28,130 something that yeah it was pretty pretty 1371 00:59:32,920 --> 00:59:31,130 shocking and strange yeah maybe maybe 1372 00:59:37,750 --> 00:59:32,930 the special features we'll get to see 1373 00:59:39,820 --> 00:59:37,760 why Rob Kristofferson also asks when in 1374 00:59:44,050 --> 00:59:39,830 where can I get 1375 00:59:48,190 --> 00:59:44,060

01:00:41,650 --> 01:00:38,540 great forward momentum as you see as you 1395 01:00:45,250 --> 01:00:41,660 see in the argument that strand and I 1396 01:00:47,710 --> 01:00:45,260 have in Episode four strand is very much 1397 01:00:49,690 --> 01:00:47,720 who-who I was when I was like 10 years 1398 01:00:54,850 --> 01:00:49,700 ago right before I was jaded and cynical 1399 01:00:58,090 --> 01:00:54,860 and fat and scared strand strand argues 1400 01:01:00,460 --> 01:00:58,100 with me and I think argues with all of 1401 01:01:02,080 --> 01:01:00,470 us and pushes us to do things that make 1402 01:01:04,840 --> 01:01:02,090 us a little bit nervous so he's really 1403 01:01:06,940 --> 01:01:04,850 been a fantastic addition as as Action 1404 01:01:08,800 --> 01:01:06,950 Man and he's a really great researcher - 1405 01:01:11,800 --> 01:01:08,810 so he's a fantastic new addition 1406 01:01:14,410 --> 01:01:11,810 Gareth asks do you think this experience 1407 01:01:17,050 --> 01:01:14,420 was never about the goblins but an 1408 01:01:19,510 --> 01:01:17,060 exercise given to you in how to research 1409 01:01:21,130 --> 01:01:19,520 the paranormal do you see yourself 1410 01:01:24,160 --> 01:01:21,140 changing the way you research something 1411 01:01:26,110 --> 01:01:24,170 as opposed to methods before Hellyer I 1412 01:01:28,120 --> 01:01:26,120 know you both come from sort of a ghost 1413 01:01:31,710 --> 01:01:28,130 hunting background so what do you both 1414 01:01:37,140 --> 01:01:31,720 think about that personally yeah I'd say 1415 01:01:40,300 --> 01:01:37,150 yes - thumbs up you know it's funny the 1416 01:01:43,270 --> 01:01:40,310 entirety without giving away too much of 1417 01:01:46,300 --> 01:01:43,280 the ending but we're sort of continuing 1418 01:01:49,120 --> 01:01:46,310 this checklist and we're being very open 1419 01:01:50,650 --> 01:01:49,130 with it you know we're a little bit you 1420 01:01:52,120 --> 01:01:50,660 know we keep a lot to ourselves but 1421 01:01:53,380 --> 01:01:52,130 we're like you know what this is what's 1422 01:01:56,470 --> 01:01:53,390 happening see 1423 01:01:59,109 --> 01:01:56,480 our methods of looking into this which 1424 01:02:01,950 --> 01:01:59,119 is in a way a little bit intimidating to 1425 01:02:03,999 --> 01:02:01,960 sort of show a lot of the cards you know 1426 01:02:06,999 --> 01:02:04,009 but we put it out there and it's like 1427 01:02:09,640 --> 01:02:07,009 this is how we're going to look going 1428 01:02:12,460 --> 01:02:09,650 forward there's this you know hash tag 1429 01:02:16,239 --> 01:02:12,470 in this almost tongue-in-cheek joke of 1430 01:02:18,339 --> 01:02:16,249 the alien cave base task force and and 1431 01:02:20,529 --> 01:02:18,349 we love that it's now something that's 1432 01:02:23,979 --> 01:02:20,539 crowd-sourced out there 1433 01:02:26,589 --> 01:02:23,989 to say this is a real-time modern-day 1434 01:02:28,690 --> 01:02:26,599 high strangeness investigation here's 1435 01:02:31,930 --> 01:02:28,700 how you can help out and so it's giving 1436 01:02:33,880 --> 01:02:31,940 us instructions as to how to find 1437 01:02:37,690 --> 01:02:33,890 potential window areas and things like 1438 01:02:40,210 --> 01:02:37,700 that I would say that I wonder if there 1439 01:02:42,130 --> 01:02:40,220 were goblins in the first place look at 1440 01:02:45,489 --> 01:02:42,140 Greg talked about it earlier in this 1441 01:02:47,829 --> 01:02:45,499 interview how strange is his inbox you 1442 01:02:49,809 --> 01:02:47,839 know it is filled by the nature of 1443 01:02:52,599 --> 01:02:49,819 running the websites and doing the work 1444 01:02:54,999 --> 01:02:52,609 that he does with ghostly reports and 1445 01:02:57,220 --> 01:02:55,009 alien reports which he loves I know it's 1446 01:02:59,380 --> 01:02:57,230 it's wonderful but how often does a 1447 01:03:02,829 --> 01:02:59,390 report come out that says goblins and 1448 01:03:06,509 --> 01:03:02,839 that in turn was enough incentive to go 1449 01:03:10,960 --> 01:03:06,519 to go actually check it out in person 1450 01:03:14,099 --> 01:03:10,970 Helier isn't just about us now Helier is 1451 01:03:17,319 --> 01:03:14,109 a tool box and particularly Helier - 1452 01:03:21,489 --> 01:03:17,329 there's a very obvious set of tools that 1453 01:03:24,160 --> 01:03:21,499 we have been given by a hidden hand by 1454 01:03:26,859 --> 01:03:24,170 the phenomena whoever that we have 1455 01:03:28,690 --> 01:03:26,869 freely and willingly given to the rest 1456 01:03:30,759 --> 01:03:28,700 of the world and they can take what they 1457 01:03:33,249 --> 01:03:30,769 need they can leave the rest whether 1458 01:03:36,759 --> 01:03:33,259 that is buying a book that they never 1459 01:03:40,299 --> 01:03:36,769 would have read before or using the 1460 01:03:42,549 --> 01:03:40,309 estus method or you know using hypnosis 1461 01:03:45,009 --> 01:03:42,559 or looking at how things line up on a 1462 01:03:47,680 --> 01:03:45,019 map checking geomagnetic anomalies there 1463 01:03:50,349 --> 01:03:47,690 are so much there that people can take 1464 01:03:53,440 --> 01:03:50,359 and use for themselves so it hasn't just 1465 01:03:55,690 --> 01:03:53,450 changed the way that we investigate and 1466 01:03:58,390 --> 01:03:55,700 not just investigate but view the 1467 01:04:00,579 --> 01:03:58,400 phenomena as a whole it's changing the 1468 01:04:02,620 --> 01:04:00,589 way that the viewers view it - and I 1469 01:04:05,499 --> 01:04:02,630 think that's the that's a big point of 1470 01:04:06,790 --> 01:04:05,509 what we're doing and why frankly I think 1471 01:04:11,230 --> 01:04:06,800 Hellyer's is 1472 01:04:13,750 --> 01:04:11,240 is a quote-unquote unfit infecting 1473 01:04:17,020 --> 01:04:13,760 people as much as it is Leslie asks 1474 01:04:21,660 --> 01:04:17,030 since Helier two's release have any new 1475 01:04:24,550 --> 01:04:21,670 mysterious emails been received and also 1476 01:04:27,100 --> 01:04:24,560 has there been any backlash or threats 1477 01:04:35,830 --> 01:04:27,110 from townspeople or anyone since that 1478 01:04:39,010 --> 01:04:35,840 lease yeah yeah it's funny we not too 1479 01:04:42,370 --> 01:04:39,020 long before heli or two came out I 1480 01:04:45,400 --> 01:04:42,380 started getting lots of encrypted emails 1481 01:04:48,400 --> 01:04:45,410 sent from gorilla mail if anyone's 1482 01:04:51,490 --> 01:04:48,410 familiar with gorilla mail it it's an 1483 01:04:53,410 --> 01:04:51,500 inbox that exists for like an hour and 1484 01:04:55,300 --> 01:04:53,420 now you know we know a lot more about 1485 01:04:57,280 --> 01:04:55,310 tracing emails than we did in the first 1486 01:04:59,470 --> 01:04:57,290 season that's something that's something 1487 01:05:00,970 --> 01:04:59,480 we learned a lot about so when I get 1488 01:05:02,530 --> 01:05:00,980 these things the first thing I do is I 1489 01:05:05,410 --> 01:05:02,540 go all right I'm gonna go find this IP 1490 01:05:07,980 --> 01:05:05,420 address I'm gonna check the headers the 1491 01:05:10,480 --> 01:05:07,990 headers were obviously run through a VPN 1492 01:05:13,180 --> 01:05:10,490 and then through gorilla mail which is 1493 01:05:14,500 --> 01:05:13,190 anonymized anyway and sent through you 1494 01:05:20,520 --> 01:05:14,510 know an inbox that only exists for an 1495 01:05:23,590 --> 01:05:20,530 hour and they were pretty threatening 1496 01:05:26,380 --> 01:05:23,600 and essentially we're like they were 1497 01:05:29,440 --> 01:05:26,390 basically saying there's a thread in 1498 01:05:30,660 --> 01:05:29,450 season two that I know exists and you 1499 01:05:36,460 --> 01:05:30,670 better drop it 1500 01:05:39,010 --> 01:05:36,470 well we didn't drop it yeah so what 1501 01:05:43,440 --> 01:05:39,020 happens well I'm always looking for red 1502 01:05:48,160 --> 01:05:46,540 it is it's there's some intimidating 1503 01:05:50,109 --> 01:05:48,170 aspects to it and you know like Craig 1504 01:05:52,540 --> 01:05:50,119 said we've gotten good at this and in 1505 01:05:55,390 --> 01:05:52,550 terms of trying to track people down and 1506 01:05:59,080 --> 01:05:55,400 and internet and research and things 1507 01:06:01,540 --> 01:05:59,090 like that so we have what I also feel 1508 01:06:03,490 --> 01:06:01,550 some comfort in that is not a spoiler 1509 01:06:07,240 --> 01:06:03,500 necessarily because it's it's actually 1510 01:06:09,310 --> 01:06:07,250 in the series Allen greenfield tells us 1511 01:06:12,790 --> 01:06:09,320 he says you know you better ask me for a 1512 01:06:14,710 --> 01:06:12,800 word or a phrase or something that one 1513 01:06:16,660 --> 01:06:14,720 of these mysterious figures like Terry 1514 01:06:18,970 --> 01:06:16,670 might know that other people wouldn't 1515 01:06:20,120 --> 01:06:18,980 know so we have some potential 1516 01:06:25,670 --> 01:06:20,130 cross-checks if 1517 01:06:27,650 --> 01:06:25,680 needed but and it's a weird and bucks we 1518 01:06:29,570 --> 01:06:27,660 actually you know we we we've 1519 01:06:31,820 --> 01:06:29,580 democratized this process more than we 1520 01:06:33,740 --> 01:06:31,830 ever have but there are still a lot of 1521 01:06:35,360 --> 01:06:33,750 cards that we've held really close to 1522 01:06:37,790 --> 01:06:35,370 the chest the cool thing about Hellyer 1523 01:06:40,160 --> 01:06:37,800 too is when people finish the final 1524 01:06:41,390 --> 01:06:40,170 episode they are they're literally like 1525 01:06:44,080 --> 01:06:41,400 a month behind us 1526 01:06:47,170 --> 01:06:44,090 they're pretty much caught up to date 1527 01:06:51,140 --> 01:06:47,180 but there are a lot of things that just 1528 01:06:53,450 --> 01:06:51,150 either because of privacy reasons or to 1529 01:06:57,380 --> 01:06:53,460 maintain the integrity of the case or 1530 01:06:59,810 --> 01:06:57,390 for our own safety we've either obscured 1531 01:07:01,820 --> 01:06:59,820 a little bit or kept to ourselves so 1532 01:07:04,550 --> 01:07:01,830 that if somebody does come out of the 1533 01:07:08,900 --> 01:07:04,560 woodwork saying well I'm Terry wrist or 1534 01:07:11,320 --> 01:07:08,910 whatever we know what to ask to know 1535 01:07:14,270 --> 01:07:11,330 whether this person's jerking our chain 1536 01:07:16,850 --> 01:07:14,280 exactly I mean when you're out when the 1537 01:07:19,370 --> 01:07:16,860 scope is this big now and you're you're 1538 01:07:21,350 --> 01:07:19,380 broadcast across the world I mean 1539 01:07:22,850 --> 01:07:21,360 everyone and their mother is gonna come 1540 01:07:26,240 --> 01:07:22,860 out of the woodwork and either try to 1541 01:07:28,510 --> 01:07:26,250 pull a fast one on you guys or lead you 1542 01:07:32,300 --> 01:07:28,520 down a path that maybe is going to 1543 01:07:35,570 --> 01:07:32,310 dissing form you even yeah you know in 1544 01:07:39,470 --> 01:07:35,580 tough and I think on a on a smaller 1545 01:07:42,290 --> 01:07:39,480 scale and in a in a more a mundane scale 1546 01:07:44,210 --> 01:07:42,300 a benign is there's a lot of people they 1547 01:07:46,640 --> 01:07:44,220 see Helier and they see what's happening 1548 01:07:49,610 --> 01:07:46,650 and the thing is how there's a very 1549 01:07:50,960 --> 01:07:49,620 special thing it's special to us and I 1550 01:07:53,240 --> 01:07:50,970 think it's special to the people that it 1551 01:07:57,140 --> 01:07:53,250 resonates with we talk a lot about how 1552 01:07:59,930 --> 01:07:57,150 it calls to who it calls to and there's 1553 01:08:02,060 --> 01:07:59,940 a lot of folks who they want to insert 1554 01:08:05,420 --> 01:08:02,070 themselves into the narrative whether it 1555 01:08:07,250 --> 01:08:05,430 is something like you know I I've seen 1556 01:08:11,870 --> 01:08:07,260 Indrid cold or I have a psychic 1557 01:08:14,810 --> 01:08:11,880 impression or you know there's a lot or 1558 01:08:17,570 --> 01:08:14,820 I don't know Terry's my dad a literal 1559 01:08:21,440 --> 01:08:17,580 one that we've gotten before things like 1560 01:08:23,630 --> 01:08:21,450 that it's very difficult sometimes it's 1561 01:08:30,200 --> 01:08:23,640 very difficult sometimes to be like well 1562 01:08:32,480 --> 01:08:30,210 I don't believe you thank you for 1563 01:08:33,980 --> 01:08:32,490 wanting to be a part of this but I don't 1564 01:08:37,220 --> 01:08:33,990 believe you 1565 01:08:38,570 --> 01:08:37,230 there it's tough it's it's really tough 1566 01:08:41,030 --> 01:08:38,580 because there's a lot of that and now 1567 01:08:44,150 --> 01:08:41,040 that Helier has a much bigger it has a 1568 01:08:46,430 --> 01:08:44,160 much bigger net you know there there are 1569 01:08:47,930 --> 01:08:46,440 people that it calls to and do like 1570 01:08:50,660 --> 01:08:47,940 that's one of the craziest coolest 1571 01:08:52,490 --> 01:08:50,670 things about season two is people get to 1572 01:08:54,530 --> 01:08:52,500 see particularly in episode six 1573 01:08:57,050 --> 01:08:54,540 how many people reached out with 1574 01:08:59,300 --> 01:08:57,060 information the fact that we released 1575 01:09:02,930 --> 01:08:59,310 Helier for free the first season in 1576 01:09:04,970 --> 01:09:02,940 January became part of the case and so 1577 01:09:07,790 --> 01:09:04,980 we got tons I mean I got stacks of 1578 01:09:10,190 --> 01:09:07,800 emails that have information and some of 1579 01:09:13,640 --> 01:09:10,200 those led to some pretty big things in 1580 01:09:15,950 --> 01:09:13,650 season two so we never take that for 1581 01:09:17,780 --> 01:09:15,960 granted but what with that you know it's 1582 01:09:20,120 --> 01:09:17,790 the firsts the first episodes titled 1583 01:09:21,740 --> 01:09:20,130 noise and signal here we're gonna end 1584 01:09:25,010 --> 01:09:21,750 guys with the four most popular 1585 01:09:28,610 --> 01:09:25,020 questions I got asked for you guys the 1586 01:09:31,730 --> 01:09:28,620 first one being is John Tenney going to 1587 01:09:35,120 --> 01:09:31,740 be in the show this season can't answer 1588 01:09:36,860 --> 01:09:35,130 that can we go you know if the phenomena 1589 01:09:39,650 --> 01:09:36,870 wants John Tenney to be in the show 1590 01:09:41,990 --> 01:09:39,660 he'll he'll be in the show yeah yeah I 1591 01:09:44,390 --> 01:09:42,000 can leave it at that I mean if he was 1592 01:09:46,580 --> 01:09:44,400 meant to be a part of this journey he is 1593 01:09:50,300 --> 01:09:46,590 but I guess he'll just have to watch to 1594 01:09:52,160 --> 01:09:50,310 see mmm what else do we got okay most 1595 01:09:54,830 --> 01:09:52,170 popular question number two what do you 1596 01:09:58,550 --> 01:09:54,840 both hope that audiences will take away 1597 01:10:01,520 --> 01:09:58,560 from Helier I want people to be willing 1598 01:10:03,890 --> 01:10:01,530 to talk with each other I'm hoping that 1599 01:10:06,620 --> 01:10:03,900 he'll uris able to break down walls that 1600 01:10:10,760 --> 01:10:06,630 exists between the crypto crowd the 1601 01:10:14,090 --> 01:10:10,770 ghost crowd the UFO crowd and sort of 1602 01:10:15,500 --> 01:10:14,100 becomes this you know people hate on it 1603 01:10:17,180 --> 01:10:15,510 because it's a mesh of all these 1604 01:10:19,520 --> 01:10:17,190 different things but the majority of 1605 01:10:21,950 --> 01:10:19,530 people find that that's a a pretty 1606 01:10:23,450 --> 01:10:21,960 beautiful mixture so I would I would 1607 01:10:27,050 --> 01:10:23,460 hope that it elicits and starts 1608 01:10:30,080 --> 01:10:27,060 conversations I I wanted to reinterred 1609 01:10:31,640 --> 01:10:30,090 I want people to I want people to look 1610 01:10:33,170 --> 01:10:31,650 at the world differently I want them to 1611 01:10:34,850 --> 01:10:33,180 pay attention to the synchronicities in 1612 01:10:36,410 --> 01:10:34,860 their lives and see what those 1613 01:10:40,100 --> 01:10:36,420 synchronicities might mean to them I 1614 01:10:44,570 --> 01:10:40,110 want them to consider extraterrestrials 1615 01:10:47,899 --> 01:10:44,580 and ancient gods and the the the estus 1616 01:10:52,040 --> 01:10:47,909 method I want it to become 1617 01:10:54,500 --> 01:10:52,050 a bar that has been set that now once 1618 01:10:56,110 --> 01:10:54,510 people have seen it they have to they 1619 01:10:57,770 --> 01:10:56,120 have to go and try these things 1620 01:11:00,110 --> 01:10:57,780 particularly if they're paranormal 1621 01:11:04,189 --> 01:11:00,120 investigators I mean we run in a world 1622 01:11:05,600 --> 01:11:04,199 of paranormal investigators and frankly 1623 01:11:09,140 --> 01:11:05,610 I think that the water is pretty 1624 01:11:11,300 --> 01:11:09,150 stagnant man and I I think there's a lot 1625 01:11:13,820 --> 01:11:11,310 of stuff that we we try very hard to 1626 01:11:15,200 --> 01:11:13,830 present in Hellyer that I hope will 1627 01:11:18,590 --> 01:11:15,210 shake things up and I hope will make 1628 01:11:22,070 --> 01:11:18,600 people consider ideas that maybe they 1629 01:11:22,970 --> 01:11:22,080 wouldn't consider before because there's 1630 01:11:25,100 --> 01:11:22,980 no movement 1631 01:11:26,660 --> 01:11:25,110 I haven't felt really any movement I 1632 01:11:28,850 --> 01:11:26,670 mean one of the last things that excited 1633 01:11:31,370 --> 01:11:28,860 part of the reason I loved Carl and 1634 01:11:33,320 --> 01:11:31,380 Connor so much is what they did with the 1635 01:11:35,030 --> 01:11:33,330 esses method I thought that was like the 1636 01:11:38,240 --> 01:11:35,040 coolest most innovative thing I've seen 1637 01:11:39,560 --> 01:11:38,250 in so long and so you know that type of 1638 01:11:41,689 --> 01:11:39,570 thing resonated with me and there's so 1639 01:11:43,910 --> 01:11:41,699 many experiments in the second season 1640 01:11:45,919 --> 01:11:43,920 that people have never seen before or 1641 01:11:48,320 --> 01:11:45,929 have never been attempted before and I'd 1642 01:11:49,910 --> 01:11:48,330 love to see people take those and run 1643 01:11:51,979 --> 01:11:49,920 with it build on it 1644 01:11:55,790 --> 01:11:51,989 Riaan chant the world stop being so 1645 01:11:59,689 --> 01:11:55,800 cynical and see how big and beautiful 1646 01:12:02,000 --> 01:11:59,699 and wonderful the world becomes when you 1647 01:12:04,700 --> 01:12:02,010 just decide to be open to things that 1648 01:12:06,620 --> 01:12:04,710 maybe scared you or maybe confused you 1649 01:12:10,370 --> 01:12:06,630 or maybe you didn't even believe in 1650 01:12:13,490 --> 01:12:10,380 before I love that and in in 1651 01:12:16,310 --> 01:12:13,500 relationship sort of opening up one of 1652 01:12:18,649 --> 01:12:16,320 our last questions here is for you both 1653 01:12:21,290 --> 01:12:18,659 personally what doers do you think maybe 1654 01:12:23,990 --> 01:12:21,300 you were able to close when it came to 1655 01:12:30,260 --> 01:12:24,000 Helier if any carp connor how about you 1656 01:12:37,669 --> 01:12:30,270 oh man I think that the door inhaler was 1657 01:12:40,370 --> 01:12:37,679 already closed when we got there and so 1658 01:12:42,939 --> 01:12:40,380 instead we were knocking on the door to 1659 01:12:47,570 --> 01:12:42,949 see if it would open and then were 1660 01:12:49,760 --> 01:12:47,580 presented with some more doors to walk 1661 01:12:51,890 --> 01:12:49,770 through so I'm not sure we're 1662 01:12:54,800 --> 01:12:51,900 necessarily the ones that are that are 1663 01:12:58,459 --> 01:12:54,810 in in control of that I think that our 1664 01:13:01,640 --> 01:12:58,469 goal is to find and peek through as much 1665 01:13:04,610 --> 01:13:01,650 as we can while it's active and open 1666 01:13:06,200 --> 01:13:04,620 yeah my favorite thing about Helier and 1667 01:13:08,540 --> 01:13:06,210 particularly the group that we've put 1668 01:13:10,729 --> 01:13:08,550 together in Helier is we're all very 1669 01:13:13,280 --> 01:13:10,739 different people from very different 1670 01:13:15,410 --> 01:13:13,290 backgrounds and we we we argue and we 1671 01:13:17,090 --> 01:13:15,420 disagree on things sometimes but at the 1672 01:13:20,120 --> 01:13:17,100 end of the day I think we're all very 1673 01:13:23,000 --> 01:13:20,130 interested in the same thing and we are 1674 01:13:25,189 --> 01:13:23,010 greater than the sum of our parts all 1675 01:13:29,180 --> 01:13:25,199 right guys here we go the number one 1676 01:13:34,459 --> 01:13:29,190 most asked question
