Monthly Spooky | Strange New Years, Mystery Money and Ghostly Doors!

Monthly Spooky | Strange New Years, Mystery Money and Ghostly Doors!

In this episode of Monthly Spooky, we explore some of the strangest and creepiest New Year's traditions from around the world as I sit down with my co-host Michelle to reflect on the past year and the peculiar ways different cultures celebrate the coming of a new year. We discuss how these bizarre customs reveal deeper meanings and beliefs about fate, fortune, and the supernatural.

We start by recounting our recent holiday experiences, which included painful bouts of food poisoning and a visit to the Philadelphia Christmas Village. Michelle shares her less-than-stellar Hanukkah experiences and how being physically present during her illness has turned our friendship into a comedic yet tragic tale. There's an amusing back-and-forth as we reminisce about different food adventures and our mutual love for hot pot, all while highlighting how illness can dampen holiday spirits.

After some humorous anecdotes, we shift gears to spooky news stories that bring a chill to the heart. These include a humorous account of a missing Baby Jesus statue from a nativity scene in Colorado that was returned with an apology note, and a ghostly encounter captured on TikTok that left a mother defending the innocence of her toddler. We contemplate the meaning behind such strange happenings, weaving our discussion into the fabric of creeping superstition.

Next, we dive into our main topic: peculiar New Year’s traditions. Exploring various customs, we highlight the practice of using bread to scare away spirits in Ireland, and how setting a place at the table for departed loved ones signifies a welcoming gesture. We also ponder the chilling belief that doing laundry on New Year's Day may wash away a family member, a superstition that leaves one cautious about household chores. In contrast, we discuss rituals that encourage abundance and ward off evil, such as the practice of noise-making and opening doors to usher in prosperity.

As we navigate through other strange customs—like the "bear dance" in Romania and the "grape-eating" tradition in Spain—we find connections between the joy of welcoming a new year and the dread that some cultures associate with impending misfortune. I share my thoughts on the significance of these rituals, while Michelle adds her cynical perspective, questioning the logic behind each practice.

Wrapping up, we reflect on the trials of the past year, expressing gratitude for the support received from listeners and each other. I highlight the importance of celebrating what we've learned and the relationships we've nurtured despite the chaos. This dynamic and often humor-laden episode touches upon the human experience, the traditions that shape our lives, and the connection between love, loss, and the uncanny.

00:00:00.720 --> 00:00:03.399
In the rest of the world, New Year's traditions aren't

2
00:00:03.480 --> 00:00:07.160
quite so clear cut, and they can be downright terrifying.

3
00:00:07.360 --> 00:00:12.080
In some cases, a ghostly encounter scares a family obsessed

4
00:00:12.119 --> 00:00:15.679
with the occult and just playing a big box of money,

5
00:00:16.000 --> 00:00:19.000
get comfort, turn off the life.

6
00:00:20.559 --> 00:00:25.559
It's Monthly Spooky.

7
00:00:27.079 --> 00:00:33.759
Well, hello, my spookgees, and I guess not to get presumptuous,

8
00:00:33.799 --> 00:00:38.679
but happy New Year because it's the day before New

9
00:00:38.759 --> 00:00:44.200
Year's Eve. It's December thirtieth and almost the thirtieest. It's

10
00:00:44.240 --> 00:00:48.320
been a long year, kids, and this is Monthly Spooky,

11
00:00:48.719 --> 00:00:52.240
our month. In end wrap up show, I'm, of course

12
00:00:52.320 --> 00:00:55.920
Enrique Kuto here with my good buddy and co host Michelle. Michelle,

13
00:00:56.159 --> 00:00:56.799
how are you?

14
00:00:57.799 --> 00:00:58.719
I hate everything?

15
00:00:59.719 --> 00:01:03.719
Ill? I know, dear, I know, there's a lot to

16
00:01:03.759 --> 00:01:11.439
get into. Well, so cell I was going, like the

17
00:01:11.680 --> 00:01:14.319
instinct is to ask, how was your holiday?

18
00:01:14.920 --> 00:01:20.879
Oh, it wasn't really good, right, yeah, that was it

19
00:01:20.920 --> 00:01:25.359
wasn't good because you're Jewish? Yeah no, actually, and also

20
00:01:25.640 --> 00:01:30.280
it's it's stillhanika, right yeah yeah, but no, no, I've

21
00:01:30.359 --> 00:01:33.319
just been I got really bad food poisoning and everything

22
00:01:33.400 --> 00:01:37.560
sucks and I hate everything, and that's my biggest fear.

23
00:01:37.719 --> 00:01:40.000
So I'm trying to recover emotionally.

24
00:01:40.159 --> 00:01:42.480
Now, your biggest fear is hating everything.

25
00:01:42.959 --> 00:01:47.480
Oh no, no, that's just the normal, normal things.

26
00:01:47.879 --> 00:01:52.640
I I so to make matters more interesting, I was

27
00:01:52.680 --> 00:01:57.400
actually physically in your home. Yes, when you when you

28
00:01:57.519 --> 00:02:05.760
got ill. Yes, so I I'm sorry. It's okay. No, no,

29
00:02:05.799 --> 00:02:08.080
it's it's bad. But like, but I will say, like

30
00:02:09.360 --> 00:02:13.000
from being I've had much worse food poisoning just for

31
00:02:13.039 --> 00:02:13.280
the right.

32
00:02:14.080 --> 00:02:17.400
I mean I've had I've had worse bouts of throwing up,

33
00:02:17.879 --> 00:02:20.639
but I haven't had one affect me this long.

34
00:02:21.080 --> 00:02:25.120
No, that's fair. No, that's super deeper. Fair. Yeah, usually

35
00:02:25.199 --> 00:02:29.800
for me with food poisoning. Once I Ralph, that's the

36
00:02:29.840 --> 00:02:32.840
beginning of things getting better, although one time it did

37
00:02:32.879 --> 00:02:35.039
give like three days of just hell.

38
00:02:35.680 --> 00:02:36.599
Yeah yeah.

39
00:02:36.639 --> 00:02:40.120
So no, I'm sorry that my friendship makes you sick.

40
00:02:40.639 --> 00:02:44.879
It's okay. Right before Christmas, I made a trip out east,

41
00:02:45.199 --> 00:02:47.759
visited some friends in New Jersey, visited some friends in

42
00:02:47.800 --> 00:02:52.719
northeastern Pennsylvania, and then landed outside of Philadelphia to hang

43
00:02:52.719 --> 00:02:57.599
out with you, Michelle, where we ate good food and

44
00:02:57.639 --> 00:03:00.479
then apparently not so good food. The weird thing is

45
00:03:00.520 --> 00:03:03.199
like there's only one thing you ate that we didn't share,

46
00:03:04.919 --> 00:03:06.000
so I guess that must have.

47
00:03:06.000 --> 00:03:06.759
Been it was that.

48
00:03:07.199 --> 00:03:10.400
Yeah. Yeah yeah. So are you ever going to eat

49
00:03:10.439 --> 00:03:11.319
Korean food again?

50
00:03:13.599 --> 00:03:16.240
To be fair, not not from there, probably never.

51
00:03:16.400 --> 00:03:19.960
Yeah. Yeah, so I kind of painted the h Mart

52
00:03:20.039 --> 00:03:20.840
experience for me.

53
00:03:21.319 --> 00:03:23.560
Yeah. I don't even really want to go to h

54
00:03:23.599 --> 00:03:26.280
Mart anymore. And not that it's the h Mart's fault.

55
00:03:26.319 --> 00:03:29.599
I just now I have like like a trigger bad memory.

56
00:03:29.800 --> 00:03:32.199
Oh no, so.

57
00:03:34.000 --> 00:03:36.759
Yeah. Yeah.

58
00:03:36.919 --> 00:03:39.280
For those who are unaware, that bump you heard was

59
00:03:39.319 --> 00:03:43.360
Michelle hitting her into the microphone, Oh yeah, sorry punctuate

60
00:03:43.520 --> 00:03:47.360
her suffering. Yeah, no, it's yeah, no, that's that's one

61
00:03:47.400 --> 00:03:51.639
of the worst. It was you You kept thinking that

62
00:03:51.719 --> 00:03:54.400
the situation was terrible for me, but because you thought

63
00:03:54.439 --> 00:03:56.439
I was just like that you were just being an

64
00:03:56.479 --> 00:03:59.479
awful friend or a bad host or yeah or whatever.

65
00:03:59.599 --> 00:04:01.520
But it was terrible for me because I knew that

66
00:04:01.560 --> 00:04:04.199
it was terrible for you. I was just sitting there.

67
00:04:04.199 --> 00:04:06.000
I'm like, I'm fine, I can just look at my phone.

68
00:04:06.039 --> 00:04:08.960
I just feel bad for you that you're sick, yeah,

69
00:04:09.000 --> 00:04:11.560
and that you're like I'm sorry, I'm sick, and I'm like,

70
00:04:11.680 --> 00:04:14.520
I it's I mean it's fine. It's not fine, but

71
00:04:14.560 --> 00:04:18.720
it's fine. Yeah, you know, to be sick, but we

72
00:04:18.759 --> 00:04:21.600
did have some fun. You were nice enough to wait

73
00:04:21.759 --> 00:04:24.800
until the night before I left to get sick. Yeah.

74
00:04:24.839 --> 00:04:27.120
I appreciate. It's very polite, very thoughtful.

75
00:04:27.360 --> 00:04:27.839
I tried.

76
00:04:28.759 --> 00:04:30.680
So we went to the what was it called the

77
00:04:30.720 --> 00:04:32.240
Philadelphia Christmas Village.

78
00:04:33.360 --> 00:04:36.240
I don't know, something like that. It's the Christmas Village

79
00:04:36.240 --> 00:04:36.720
in Philly.

80
00:04:36.920 --> 00:04:39.720
Yeah. Yeah, So we went down into Philly and walked

81
00:04:39.759 --> 00:04:43.240
around this big market place that was decorated for Christmas.

82
00:04:43.759 --> 00:04:45.639
I was very impressed to find out that it went

83
00:04:45.680 --> 00:04:50.360
on for like thirty days. Yeah, it's crazy. I mean,

84
00:04:50.439 --> 00:04:54.399
I mean like, I mean, it's it's you know, the

85
00:04:54.439 --> 00:04:57.240
booths looked like they could stand up for thirty days.

86
00:04:57.240 --> 00:04:58.959
They were made of like wood and metal. It's just

87
00:04:59.000 --> 00:05:01.439
it's just wild for a hop up to last that long.

88
00:05:01.600 --> 00:05:03.879
To me, that's just how did they do it?

89
00:05:04.439 --> 00:05:06.600
Hey? I mean no, that's cool and apparently it's worth

90
00:05:06.639 --> 00:05:09.680
the time. Although I have to say the guy who

91
00:05:09.680 --> 00:05:12.879
had the hot sauces, he had the right idea. He

92
00:05:13.000 --> 00:05:15.120
just like immediately admitted that he didn't see me walk

93
00:05:15.199 --> 00:05:17.759
up because he was playing Halo like he has a

94
00:05:17.839 --> 00:05:20.279
TV in his stream, like below the thing, and I

95
00:05:20.319 --> 00:05:22.319
was like and I was like, hey, whatever works. He's like,

96
00:05:22.319 --> 00:05:24.920
I'm here for thirty days, so I figured it may

97
00:05:24.959 --> 00:05:27.439
as well set it up. But his hot sauces were

98
00:05:27.480 --> 00:05:28.279
really good, by the way.

99
00:05:28.480 --> 00:05:28.759
Good.

100
00:05:30.079 --> 00:05:32.040
I would plug them, But I don't remember the name

101
00:05:32.040 --> 00:05:35.439
of the hot sauces. Yeah, so if you really care,

102
00:05:35.519 --> 00:05:38.480
you can email us at Weeklyspooky at gmail dot com

103
00:05:38.600 --> 00:05:40.720
and I will if you send that email saying what

104
00:05:40.759 --> 00:05:42.920
was the hot sauce, I will get up from my desk,

105
00:05:43.120 --> 00:05:45.879
go into my kitchen, pick up the bottle and write

106
00:05:46.040 --> 00:05:49.800
down the name. But for right now, not so much,

107
00:05:51.319 --> 00:05:55.759
not so much at all, so anyhow, but we did

108
00:05:55.759 --> 00:05:59.240
have other fun too. We watched Banana Fish. Yeah, some

109
00:05:59.399 --> 00:06:02.639
episodes of banana Fish your favorite well, your second favorite

110
00:06:02.639 --> 00:06:04.279
anime and first favorite manga.

111
00:06:04.560 --> 00:06:07.639
Yeah, there you go, I remembered it, right, you go? Yeah? Yeah?

112
00:06:07.680 --> 00:06:11.000
Hey, which if people are curious about Banana Fish, they

113
00:06:11.000 --> 00:06:16.000
can go to Michelle Explains Anime, but don't be I

114
00:06:16.000 --> 00:06:19.040
mean that may be fair. You can go to Michelle

115
00:06:19.079 --> 00:06:23.160
Explains Anime Poorly on your favorite podcasting app and listen

116
00:06:23.199 --> 00:06:28.000
to Michelle talk about anime poorly and right now you

117
00:06:28.040 --> 00:06:30.439
are diving deep into banana fish.

118
00:06:30.639 --> 00:06:36.199
Yeah. Yeah, we're done about twenty twenty episodes, right, so

119
00:06:36.600 --> 00:06:38.639
there's four more to go if.

120
00:06:38.560 --> 00:06:41.600
That's how you count, If that's how you count.

121
00:06:41.439 --> 00:06:43.879
Yeah, that's how you count. And then we're going to

122
00:06:43.959 --> 00:06:47.199
do the the four to one shots from the manga

123
00:06:47.279 --> 00:06:50.439
and then yeah, because the one because when I asked,

124
00:06:50.519 --> 00:06:54.639
one person responded, So we're gonna do it.

125
00:06:55.560 --> 00:06:58.399
We'll have spoken the person has the person.

126
00:06:59.040 --> 00:07:02.759
Yeah, so that's gonna be fun because they're they're really

127
00:07:03.040 --> 00:07:08.160
really upsetting, they're worse a.

128
00:07:09.920 --> 00:07:10.160
Lot.

129
00:07:12.560 --> 00:07:16.600
So yeah, I'm not saying that anyone should care. And

130
00:07:16.680 --> 00:07:19.000
also though, like you don't actually have to watch the

131
00:07:19.079 --> 00:07:21.360
show to understand what I'm talking about, because I just

132
00:07:21.639 --> 00:07:26.639
I just recite the entire episode, so well yeah, mostly

133
00:07:26.639 --> 00:07:27.360
the entire.

134
00:07:28.480 --> 00:07:31.399
Just never ending stream of tears. No, but Michelle's show

135
00:07:31.439 --> 00:07:33.319
is really fun and if you're into anime, I can't

136
00:07:33.360 --> 00:07:36.480
recommend listening to it enough, or if you just like

137
00:07:36.600 --> 00:07:43.759
Michelle's sardonic wit, I'm not. I was smoking cigars with

138
00:07:43.839 --> 00:07:47.279
Keith Tomlin yesterday, uh, the author from Weekly Spooky and

139
00:07:47.319 --> 00:07:50.199
My Good Buddy, and he was talking about your sardonic wit,

140
00:07:51.040 --> 00:07:57.000
specifically do I have that. Apparently more so your sardonic

141
00:07:57.040 --> 00:08:00.199
wit when you're it's more so when you're writing, like

142
00:08:00.360 --> 00:08:05.040
characters like you yourself are not a particularly sardonic person, yeah,

143
00:08:05.120 --> 00:08:08.759
because you're not very apathetic or although now you are,

144
00:08:08.800 --> 00:08:11.680
now that you've thrown up, you're fish just like whatever,

145
00:08:11.680 --> 00:08:12.680
everything's destroying.

146
00:08:13.319 --> 00:08:15.240
Yeah.

147
00:08:15.279 --> 00:08:19.040
But anyway, I've reached about the limit of the legal

148
00:08:19.079 --> 00:08:21.319
amount I'm allowed to say the term sardonic, so I'm

149
00:08:21.360 --> 00:08:25.480
gonna stop now before it's too late. But no, uh uh.

150
00:08:26.399 --> 00:08:29.439
So one nice thing though, that didn't cause you food poisoning.

151
00:08:29.519 --> 00:08:33.120
I took you to Hot Pot for your first time. Yeah, yeah,

152
00:08:33.159 --> 00:08:34.440
and you seem to enjoy it.

153
00:08:34.519 --> 00:08:37.159
Okay, Yeah, it was nice, but it was too much

154
00:08:37.200 --> 00:08:38.519
food really.

155
00:08:40.120 --> 00:08:42.320
I mean that is kind of the benefit of Hot

156
00:08:42.360 --> 00:08:44.080
Pot is they're just like, here's everything.

157
00:08:44.559 --> 00:08:46.679
Yeah, that's it's a little bit too much pressure.

158
00:08:47.080 --> 00:08:49.320
So I went right back to Hot Pot on Christmas Day.

159
00:08:49.360 --> 00:08:53.399
I couldn't wait. I am obsessed with Hot Pot. I

160
00:08:53.440 --> 00:08:55.960
feel like a king. They just bring you out everything

161
00:08:56.000 --> 00:08:59.120
you ask for in mass and then you cook and

162
00:08:59.200 --> 00:09:02.480
eat it at your own you know, leisure. Yeah, but

163
00:09:02.519 --> 00:09:04.519
I went to Hot Pod on Christmas Day. I saw

164
00:09:04.559 --> 00:09:07.039
a movie with my mother on Christmas Day, and then

165
00:09:07.039 --> 00:09:11.159
I made a pot roast and watched Christmas Story fat Man,

166
00:09:11.759 --> 00:09:17.960
and I think we watched watched Christmas Story fat Man.

167
00:09:18.039 --> 00:09:19.679
There was one, oh and Christmas Evil.

168
00:09:20.480 --> 00:09:21.080
That's nice.

169
00:09:21.679 --> 00:09:23.399
Yeah, Christmas Evil was my favorite.

170
00:09:23.440 --> 00:09:27.279
So yeah, I pretty much just watched OZ.

171
00:09:27.440 --> 00:09:29.039
I guess you are so lucky.

172
00:09:29.840 --> 00:09:32.600
I just I didn't really want to do Christmas anymore.

173
00:09:33.519 --> 00:09:36.120
I get that I fought with that feeling even without

174
00:09:36.159 --> 00:09:39.440
throwing up, So I get it. But I'm glad that

175
00:09:39.480 --> 00:09:42.440
OZ could be there to soothe you.

176
00:09:43.480 --> 00:09:45.000
Thanks well.

177
00:09:45.480 --> 00:09:48.279
I started trying to get you to watch OZ in

178
00:09:48.320 --> 00:09:49.279
twenty nineteen.

179
00:09:49.799 --> 00:09:52.080
Yeah, yeah, and you were for a while.

180
00:09:52.120 --> 00:09:54.080
You were like watching a lot of it, and then

181
00:09:54.120 --> 00:09:56.360
you fell out. So I kind of brought it up

182
00:09:56.360 --> 00:09:58.399
when we were talking and you were like, maybe I will.

183
00:09:58.440 --> 00:10:00.120
Then you got sick and you just started watching and

184
00:10:00.159 --> 00:10:03.200
the hell out of it. You're just like, because it's

185
00:10:03.840 --> 00:10:06.440
having something to binge when you're sick really helps.

186
00:10:06.600 --> 00:10:10.759
Mm hmm. Yeah, without a doubt, especially when it's like

187
00:10:10.840 --> 00:10:15.240
really really violent. It's got to be like really violent,

188
00:10:15.919 --> 00:10:17.080
any type of violence.

189
00:10:18.279 --> 00:10:23.440
The darkness of Michelle is becoming ever a parent, I.

190
00:10:23.440 --> 00:10:25.480
Want to see people get killed and named.

191
00:10:26.159 --> 00:10:28.919
I know, dear, I know, that's the only thing you want.

192
00:10:29.360 --> 00:10:34.960
I know this. Oh, we're going to take a quick

193
00:10:35.000 --> 00:10:38.200
break because this is very upsetting, and then when we

194
00:10:38.279 --> 00:10:40.919
come back, we're going to talk about some spooky news

195
00:10:40.919 --> 00:10:43.519
stories from around the globe. But I also want to

196
00:10:43.559 --> 00:10:47.039
mention tonight's topic is we're going to cover because for

197
00:10:47.039 --> 00:10:50.000
the last few years we always did a Christmasy monthly Spooky.

198
00:10:50.600 --> 00:10:52.919
This year, I wanted to do something different, So we're

199
00:10:52.919 --> 00:10:55.440
going to cover a few lists. I have a couple

200
00:10:55.480 --> 00:10:59.080
of lists of creepy and weird New Year's traditions from

201
00:10:59.080 --> 00:11:01.600
around the world, and most of these I'd never heard of.

202
00:11:02.679 --> 00:11:04.360
So we'll talk about that. But first we're gonna get

203
00:11:04.360 --> 00:11:07.039
to the spooky news. But that is of course after this,

204
00:11:15.600 --> 00:11:20.120
and we are back with our last edition of this

205
00:11:20.840 --> 00:11:26.639
in the year. It's the Spooky News. The Spooky News,

206
00:11:26.759 --> 00:11:30.639
all right. This first story I had to choose because

207
00:11:30.720 --> 00:11:36.440
it's Christmasy. It comes from the Huffington Post. The headline reads,

208
00:11:36.759 --> 00:11:41.759
dumb mistake. Baby Jesus goes missing, reappears with note at

209
00:11:41.840 --> 00:11:51.759
Colorado Nativity scene. Oh so apparently, Yeah, the baby Jesus

210
00:11:51.759 --> 00:11:54.159
got stolen from a nativity scene, but then got returned

211
00:11:54.159 --> 00:11:54.799
with a note.

212
00:11:55.399 --> 00:11:56.720
So he just got borrowed.

213
00:11:57.279 --> 00:12:00.120
Yeah, borrowed without permission, which I think is still.

214
00:12:03.120 --> 00:12:03.200
No.

215
00:12:04.919 --> 00:12:09.639
Should have been a lawyer, Denver, Colorado. A baby Jesus

216
00:12:09.639 --> 00:12:13.120
figurine snatched from a nativity scene in Colorado has been

217
00:12:13.159 --> 00:12:16.799
returned in time for Christmas with an apology.

218
00:12:17.279 --> 00:12:17.519
Ah.

219
00:12:18.919 --> 00:12:22.600
The statuette of Jesus lying in a major stolen from

220
00:12:22.600 --> 00:12:26.000
a public display in downtown Fort Collins early Sunday, was

221
00:12:26.080 --> 00:12:29.759
dropped off anonymously at a fire station Thursday. Police said

222
00:12:30.000 --> 00:12:33.360
it was accompanied by a handwritten note saying quote, I'm

223
00:12:33.399 --> 00:12:36.159
really sorry. I made a dumb mistake in the moment.

224
00:12:36.279 --> 00:12:42.480
It won't happen again, and I will not be facing consequences. Yeah. Yeah.

225
00:12:42.639 --> 00:12:49.279
The funny thing is, so I'm not a handwriting expert,

226
00:12:49.960 --> 00:12:54.559
but I'm looking at this note and it was my

227
00:12:54.679 --> 00:12:56.240
instinct was to say, it looks like it was written

228
00:12:56.279 --> 00:13:02.679
by a child or like a quirky middle aged woman. Okay,

229
00:13:03.200 --> 00:13:06.840
this is based on nothing, just the way I see handwriting.

230
00:13:06.879 --> 00:13:11.200
My handwriting looks like it's one to five steps worse

231
00:13:11.240 --> 00:13:13.759
than the Zodiac Killer. Like I have the worst handwriting

232
00:13:14.440 --> 00:13:18.320
on the planet. But yeah, it's just kind of the

233
00:13:18.360 --> 00:13:22.440
handwriting looks a little odd, like like I don't know,

234
00:13:22.480 --> 00:13:24.600
but it could be a kid, probably a.

235
00:13:24.639 --> 00:13:28.639
Kid maybe, or maybe it was a drunk person and

236
00:13:28.679 --> 00:13:31.320
they do just like steal baby Jesus. And then they

237
00:13:31.360 --> 00:13:33.840
like woke up the next morning and they were like,

238
00:13:33.919 --> 00:13:34.799
what the fuck?

239
00:13:36.000 --> 00:13:39.159
Uh nothing, nothing quite like waking up the next morning

240
00:13:39.200 --> 00:13:41.399
to find a baby Jesus next to you in bed

241
00:13:41.480 --> 00:13:48.039
to go, oh, man, I made some mistakes. Well regardless,

242
00:13:48.039 --> 00:13:51.919
it's nice of them to return the baby Jay, but

243
00:13:51.960 --> 00:13:54.039
I like it just says it won't happen again. No signature,

244
00:13:54.120 --> 00:13:55.320
no nothing, because.

245
00:13:55.320 --> 00:13:58.080
Why would sign Yeah.

246
00:13:58.000 --> 00:14:01.879
A signed person who stole baby gess that's uh, the

247
00:14:01.919 --> 00:14:08.679
plot thickens, oh dear. It was returned two days after

248
00:14:08.799 --> 00:14:11.759
police in the college town of sixty about sixty five

249
00:14:11.799 --> 00:14:15.679
miles north of Denver, posted surveillance video of the suspected

250
00:14:15.759 --> 00:14:19.399
grinch on social media. The person appeared to be a

251
00:14:19.519 --> 00:14:25.960
teen or young adult. Hmmmm, he looks like fifteen year

252
00:14:26.000 --> 00:14:30.320
old boy. Okay, fourteen fifteen years old? And then the post,

253
00:14:30.399 --> 00:14:32.159
by the way with the photo says, can you id

254
00:14:32.320 --> 00:14:34.799
this grinch who tried to ruin Christmas? By stealing the

255
00:14:34.840 --> 00:14:38.120
Baby Jesus from the Old Town Square Nativity scene. If

256
00:14:38.159 --> 00:14:41.799
you recognize the suspect, please notify Officer Brittingham and then

257
00:14:41.840 --> 00:14:49.720
it gives a phone number. So yeah, this is like

258
00:14:50.080 --> 00:14:53.799
they were afraid. They're like, jeas, don't come looking for me.

259
00:14:54.080 --> 00:14:54.360
Yeah.

260
00:14:54.480 --> 00:14:58.480
Yeah, there's no other information about who stole the figurine,

261
00:14:58.519 --> 00:15:01.759
police said Friday. The fire station has a motion sensing

262
00:15:01.840 --> 00:15:04.720
door camera, but it was not activated when the statue

263
00:15:04.759 --> 00:15:08.080
was returned. Police said that it was stolen by the

264
00:15:08.080 --> 00:15:12.759
fire chief Sun. I'm yeah, right now, what do you

265
00:15:12.879 --> 00:15:16.679
mean it wasn't activated when the statue was returned. You

266
00:15:16.720 --> 00:15:20.200
have a motion sensing door camera and it didn't turn

267
00:15:20.200 --> 00:15:22.440
what I mean like if you had thrown the Baby

268
00:15:22.480 --> 00:15:25.159
Jesus to the doorstep, it would have turned on the camera.

269
00:15:25.600 --> 00:15:28.000
One of my neighborhood cats turns on my camera like

270
00:15:28.080 --> 00:15:29.240
eighteen times a night.

271
00:15:30.120 --> 00:15:32.759
Well, what if it's one of those Like I've never

272
00:15:33.320 --> 00:15:35.320
you know, dealt with the motion sensing camera, but I've

273
00:15:35.360 --> 00:15:38.679
dealt with those motion sensing lights, and sometimes they just

274
00:15:38.720 --> 00:15:41.120
don't sense motion in the right spot. So you have

275
00:15:41.159 --> 00:15:42.960
to like I would have to like walk down the

276
00:15:43.039 --> 00:15:44.639
driveway and like wave for it.

277
00:15:44.600 --> 00:15:46.639
To come it definitely yeah, so like.

278
00:15:46.559 --> 00:15:48.360
Maybe it wasn't pointed the right way.

279
00:15:48.919 --> 00:15:52.679
I mean, I definitely agree because like my motion sensing light,

280
00:15:52.799 --> 00:15:55.440
like even the brand new fancy I means on that fancy,

281
00:15:55.440 --> 00:15:58.600
but my brand new led one that I have, you

282
00:15:58.600 --> 00:16:00.440
have to wave your arms kind of frantic to get

283
00:16:00.480 --> 00:16:03.159
it to turn on sometimes. Yeah, but my Ring camera

284
00:16:03.240 --> 00:16:09.000
that cost twenty times as much money always turns on

285
00:16:09.200 --> 00:16:12.679
when there's motion. My favorite is when it says like

286
00:16:12.720 --> 00:16:14.200
there's a person at your door and I open it

287
00:16:14.279 --> 00:16:16.639
up and it's just a freaking spider like on the

288
00:16:16.720 --> 00:16:20.159
lens and I'm like, oh, that's that's scary fun. Okay, cool,

289
00:16:20.399 --> 00:16:24.759
thanks thanks Ring. Last piece of this article, by the way,

290
00:16:24.799 --> 00:16:27.559
says the business that takes care of the Nativity scene

291
00:16:27.919 --> 00:16:32.639
does not want to pursue charges. Good I think there.

292
00:16:32.720 --> 00:16:35.240
I think this kid worked for the fire department, because

293
00:16:35.240 --> 00:16:38.480
why would turn the kid to the fire department. Although

294
00:16:38.480 --> 00:16:42.519
that is hilarious because that's like where you like dump kids,

295
00:16:42.799 --> 00:16:45.840
you know, children. Yeah, I'm gonna leave it at the firehouse.

296
00:16:45.879 --> 00:16:48.919
It'll be fine and they'll figure it out. Yeah, it'll

297
00:16:48.919 --> 00:16:56.399
be fine, it'll be fine. So man, yeah, I don't know,

298
00:16:56.440 --> 00:17:01.320
I that's suspect. I mean, maybe I'm just becoming a

299
00:17:01.399 --> 00:17:05.079
scrooge as I get older, But like I'm just like, oh, yeah,

300
00:17:05.200 --> 00:17:07.279
you know what, I would have felt really great about

301
00:17:07.319 --> 00:17:09.079
you returning it if it had if there hadn't been

302
00:17:09.119 --> 00:17:12.400
a photo of you on social media that people were

303
00:17:12.400 --> 00:17:14.640
trying to identify you because you're like trying to ditch

304
00:17:14.720 --> 00:17:18.160
the heat. That bothers me. Yeah, if you had just

305
00:17:18.240 --> 00:17:20.720
done it, because you know, you were like sitting in

306
00:17:20.759 --> 00:17:23.359
your living room and you were hearing the beating of

307
00:17:23.400 --> 00:17:27.519
the hideous heart of the baby Jesus that you know,

308
00:17:27.640 --> 00:17:31.799
if that's pure guilt, pure you know, need for redemption,

309
00:17:32.640 --> 00:17:35.480
that's morality. But if you're just afraid that the Internet

310
00:17:35.519 --> 00:17:37.519
is going to okay, I mean I would be afraid

311
00:17:37.519 --> 00:17:39.839
of the Internet too, because they're not just like they're

312
00:17:39.839 --> 00:17:41.839
gonna be like here's his identity and a list of

313
00:17:41.839 --> 00:17:44.039
his fears and also we got a bunch of credit

314
00:17:44.079 --> 00:17:45.039
cards with his name.

315
00:17:45.279 --> 00:17:49.440
Yeah, yeah, they're bad the Internet.

316
00:17:50.160 --> 00:17:52.359
You want to say that that's where we're broadcasting to.

317
00:17:52.839 --> 00:17:54.759
That's okay. The Internet knows it's.

318
00:17:54.599 --> 00:17:58.640
Bad, that's true. It's pretty proud of it. Actually. Yeah,

319
00:17:59.079 --> 00:18:05.359
So this next one is from newsweek dot com and

320
00:18:05.400 --> 00:18:07.519
this one got me curious. This one might take a

321
00:18:07.559 --> 00:18:13.599
bit more thought to I don't dissect. The headline is

322
00:18:13.720 --> 00:18:18.039
mom baffled by what she sees when filming toddler. Quote

323
00:18:18.119 --> 00:18:19.400
Can someone explain?

324
00:18:20.240 --> 00:18:21.480
Did she see a toddler?

325
00:18:22.440 --> 00:18:24.880
I mean, can someone expay when a man and a

326
00:18:24.960 --> 00:18:30.480
woman love each other very very much? A woman was

327
00:18:30.559 --> 00:18:34.440
left baffled after she recorded her child playing and noticed

328
00:18:34.480 --> 00:18:38.759
that noticed what appeared to be something pulling her leg.

329
00:18:39.759 --> 00:18:42.759
Justice Q twenty three from Idaho not a real name,

330
00:18:43.039 --> 00:18:50.039
no justice tew interesting spotted something strange about her daughter's

331
00:18:50.079 --> 00:18:53.359
movements when she replayed the recording. In the video, the

332
00:18:53.400 --> 00:18:56.960
girl crawls around and one of her legs randomly ascends

333
00:18:57.039 --> 00:18:57.680
into the air.

334
00:18:58.279 --> 00:18:58.839
Wow.

335
00:19:00.119 --> 00:19:03.240
Quote. I was watching her dance and play with her toys,

336
00:19:03.400 --> 00:19:06.400
and so I recorded like I am, like I'm always doing,

337
00:19:06.599 --> 00:19:09.359
and I noticed something off about her movements. So I

338
00:19:09.400 --> 00:19:12.640
stopped the recording to rewatch and noticed that it looked

339
00:19:12.680 --> 00:19:17.799
like something pulled her hmmm. Quote. I felt a little

340
00:19:17.839 --> 00:19:21.119
scared and worried, so I immediately started praying over her

341
00:19:21.240 --> 00:19:22.000
and the house.

342
00:19:23.039 --> 00:19:25.799
Okay, that's something you can do for it.

343
00:19:25.920 --> 00:19:28.039
I mean, if you believe in this stuff? Why not?

344
00:19:28.440 --> 00:19:30.160
You know, Like, if you think there could be ghosts

345
00:19:30.240 --> 00:19:35.200
or something evil, you know, why not? Two? I'm gonna

346
00:19:35.200 --> 00:19:38.200
say two is how you hear? Two uploaded the video

347
00:19:38.240 --> 00:19:41.079
to TikTok along with the on screen caption did a

348
00:19:41.119 --> 00:19:44.680
ghost just pull her leg? The clip, which included the

349
00:19:44.720 --> 00:19:48.240
caption can someone explain? Guarded three hundred and four thousand,

350
00:19:48.319 --> 00:19:52.599
seven hundred likes and five point nine million views on TikTok.

351
00:19:54.200 --> 00:19:57.079
Quote social media blew up and told me to cleanse

352
00:19:57.119 --> 00:20:00.759
the house and move out. Move out mainly too, added

353
00:20:01.240 --> 00:20:04.359
Some comments under the video show viewers spooked by the scene,

354
00:20:04.640 --> 00:20:06.920
weighing in on whether the leg movement was a result

355
00:20:06.960 --> 00:20:10.880
of some kind of paranormal intervention or not. Quote. Okay,

356
00:20:10.960 --> 00:20:13.680
so when this happens, usually it just means you need

357
00:20:13.720 --> 00:20:16.480
to pack all your stuff and leave like yesterday. Hope

358
00:20:16.480 --> 00:20:20.599
this helps, said Erica. However, a number of users thought

359
00:20:20.599 --> 00:20:23.680
the child's movement was just a result of her getting

360
00:20:23.720 --> 00:20:27.079
to grips with crawling and lifting her leg to stabilize

361
00:20:27.079 --> 00:20:30.599
herself after losing balance. The image does look like the

362
00:20:30.640 --> 00:20:34.920
babies kind of doing yoga to me, like her leg

363
00:20:35.000 --> 00:20:39.880
is a shooting straight out, but what I know about

364
00:20:39.880 --> 00:20:43.079
babies or yoga. Quote looks like her other knee slipped

365
00:20:43.079 --> 00:20:46.160
and she tried to catch herself from falling. If that's wrong,

366
00:20:46.279 --> 00:20:48.319
I was just helping you be able to sleep at night,

367
00:20:48.480 --> 00:20:52.440
wrote one viewer. Quote comes from her left arm, causing

368
00:20:52.480 --> 00:20:54.920
her to stagger and try to stabilize with a right leg.

369
00:20:55.039 --> 00:20:58.519
Don't worry, said another user. Quote after looking at this

370
00:20:58.599 --> 00:21:01.079
a few times, the baby's left arm lost balance as

371
00:21:01.119 --> 00:21:04.319
she stopped herself from falling. That's why her leg went up,

372
00:21:04.720 --> 00:21:09.359
suggested a different viewer. Quote. She lost balance and was

373
00:21:09.400 --> 00:21:12.880
trying to write herself, wrote another. Crawling is a critical

374
00:21:12.920 --> 00:21:17.079
developmental milestone that supports a child's physical and cognitive growth.

375
00:21:17.319 --> 00:21:21.640
According to the OT Toolbox, there are various types of crawling,

376
00:21:21.720 --> 00:21:25.279
including belly crawling, hands and knees crawling, and bear crawling,

377
00:21:25.920 --> 00:21:30.079
each offering unique benefits for motor coordination and sensory processing.

378
00:21:30.440 --> 00:21:33.680
Observing a child's crawling patterns can reveal important details about

379
00:21:33.680 --> 00:21:36.839
their development, which could be helpful in understanding movements like

380
00:21:36.880 --> 00:21:39.400
those seen in Justice Two's viral video.

381
00:21:40.359 --> 00:21:43.599
Oh okay, oh, I know a lot about crawling. I

382
00:21:43.640 --> 00:21:44.119
guess I know.

383
00:21:44.160 --> 00:21:49.400
We learned so much about crawling and almost nothing about ghosts. Yeah, well,

384
00:21:49.640 --> 00:21:53.880
fair enough. We're gonna take a quick break and we'll

385
00:21:53.880 --> 00:21:57.319
be back with even more spooky news, but substantially less

386
00:21:57.359 --> 00:22:12.880
information about crawling. And we're back with even more spooky news.

387
00:22:12.920 --> 00:22:15.799
As we tell a story, read a story, tell a story.

388
00:22:16.240 --> 00:22:17.839
Why would I think tell a story. It's not like

389
00:22:17.880 --> 00:22:20.640
that's what I do on ninety five percent of this channel.

390
00:22:21.160 --> 00:22:23.480
But we have a story from Huffington Post that is

391
00:22:23.680 --> 00:22:29.599
just for Rachel, my good buddy and co host of

392
00:22:30.119 --> 00:22:33.400
cutting Deep into horror. Although I hope this isn't as

393
00:22:33.400 --> 00:22:36.319
sad as it could sound. Oh man, it can't be,

394
00:22:36.319 --> 00:22:39.240
because this article uses so many puns. Oh my god.

395
00:22:39.759 --> 00:22:45.279
The headline is man surrenders nearly one thousand rodents to

396
00:22:45.400 --> 00:22:46.519
New Hampshire shelter.

397
00:22:47.240 --> 00:22:52.720
Wow. One thousand, Wow nearly so it might have been

398
00:22:52.759 --> 00:22:54.000
eight something, and they're just.

399
00:22:54.119 --> 00:22:59.799
Yeah, yeah. The subheadline says the shelter now has an

400
00:22:59.839 --> 00:23:04.960
e nor mouse problem on its hands. Boo. I knew

401
00:23:05.000 --> 00:23:15.400
you were gonna boom boohhhh, No, away with the really Stratham,

402
00:23:15.599 --> 00:23:18.200
New Hampshire. A group of mice is called a nest,

403
00:23:18.440 --> 00:23:20.599
But what do you call one thousand of them in

404
00:23:20.680 --> 00:23:24.279
one animal shelter. Oh, this is where it gets said. Crippling,

405
00:23:24.640 --> 00:23:28.759
said Lisa Dennison, executive director of the New Hampshire Society

406
00:23:28.759 --> 00:23:31.799
for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals, which is scrambling

407
00:23:31.799 --> 00:23:36.200
to care for an overwhelming influx of rapidly reproducing rodents.

408
00:23:36.640 --> 00:23:39.640
Have so much alliteration? Did you like that so much?

409
00:23:39.799 --> 00:23:42.559
That was so much better than enor mouse problem? Yes,

410
00:23:42.680 --> 00:23:45.480
get out of here with that Huffington Post. You're not

411
00:23:45.599 --> 00:23:50.119
trying that hard. Did you ever have pet rodents?

412
00:23:50.359 --> 00:23:51.119
No?

413
00:23:51.200 --> 00:23:51.680
Not at all.

414
00:23:51.880 --> 00:23:53.519
Well, I had like a hamster.

415
00:23:54.039 --> 00:23:55.400
Okay, what was the hamster's name?

416
00:23:56.000 --> 00:23:58.319
I had two, and one of them was Brownie and

417
00:23:58.400 --> 00:23:59.480
the other one was Oreo.

418
00:24:01.400 --> 00:24:02.880
Was that because of their colors?

419
00:24:03.640 --> 00:24:03.920
Yes?

420
00:24:04.799 --> 00:24:07.759
So I'm assuming one was black and white woman was brown. Yes,

421
00:24:09.680 --> 00:24:16.240
I had two hamsters. One was named Rascal, who was brown,

422
00:24:16.559 --> 00:24:18.799
and the other was blonde and white. And he was

423
00:24:18.880 --> 00:24:24.319
named Terminator. Okay, I bet you can't guess which one

424
00:24:24.359 --> 00:24:27.519
I named and which one my sister named I don't.

425
00:24:27.759 --> 00:24:28.279
I don't know.

426
00:24:32.519 --> 00:24:36.519
When Terminator. When he died, Mom got me another one

427
00:24:36.519 --> 00:24:41.200
and I named him Terminator too. Judgment day, Not really,

428
00:24:41.240 --> 00:24:43.240
I didn't. That wasn't that I wasn't that funny when

429
00:24:43.240 --> 00:24:45.920
I was that young. But I named him Terminator too well,

430
00:24:46.519 --> 00:24:49.599
So I had I had a few hamsters as a kid.

431
00:24:50.680 --> 00:24:54.640
I had I had a couple of mice, and I

432
00:24:54.680 --> 00:24:58.759
did have a rat okay for a while, all not

433
00:24:58.880 --> 00:25:01.559
at the same time, because the would eat everything else.

434
00:25:01.599 --> 00:25:04.640
I just described. That is one of my favorite things

435
00:25:04.640 --> 00:25:07.400
that like non rodent people ask them, like, do the

436
00:25:07.480 --> 00:25:09.880
rats like the mice. I'm like, they love them. They

437
00:25:09.960 --> 00:25:13.920
love to eat them very much. They're delicious. They're just

438
00:25:13.960 --> 00:25:17.640
not the same thing. And the big difference between like

439
00:25:17.799 --> 00:25:22.440
rats and mice and hamsters, in my opinion, is you

440
00:25:22.440 --> 00:25:24.279
can tell rats are have a lot more going on

441
00:25:24.319 --> 00:25:27.599
in their brains, like you can get in a loof rat,

442
00:25:27.720 --> 00:25:30.480
but like most mice are a loof, most hamsters are

443
00:25:30.519 --> 00:25:33.640
a loof. But some rats are pretty smart, like they're

444
00:25:33.720 --> 00:25:35.920
thinking quite a bit when you're playing with them or

445
00:25:35.920 --> 00:25:40.079
holding them or whatever. So but I liked having rodents

446
00:25:40.200 --> 00:25:42.599
here and there as a kid. I just as the

447
00:25:42.640 --> 00:25:45.400
older I got, the more I couldn't handle the quick heartbreak.

448
00:25:46.000 --> 00:25:46.440
Yeah.

449
00:25:46.559 --> 00:25:49.279
Yeah, they just don't live very long they are. It

450
00:25:49.359 --> 00:25:52.319
sucks and when they get sick. There's almost nothing you

451
00:25:52.319 --> 00:25:56.039
can do. I mean, it's just yeah. It all started

452
00:25:56.079 --> 00:25:58.640
Monday when a man arrived saying he wanted to give

453
00:25:58.720 --> 00:26:02.200
up one hundred and fIF fifty mice, but then he

454
00:26:02.279 --> 00:26:08.039
clarified it was one hundred and fifty containers of oh

455
00:26:08.160 --> 00:26:09.880
not individual critters.

456
00:26:10.079 --> 00:26:11.079
Oh god.

457
00:26:11.279 --> 00:26:13.680
He had seventy three mice with him that day, and

458
00:26:13.720 --> 00:26:16.920
by Friday morning, about four hundred and fifty had been

459
00:26:16.920 --> 00:26:20.519
transferred to the shelter. Another five hundred or so were

460
00:26:20.559 --> 00:26:24.680
on the way. Wow, I want to pull that scam

461
00:26:24.720 --> 00:26:28.039
on somebody, like can can me and my can you

462
00:26:28.079 --> 00:26:30.079
know I don't have it, I say, I don't even

463
00:26:30.119 --> 00:26:32.880
have an example of like yeah, yeah, could I borrow

464
00:26:32.960 --> 00:26:35.640
could I borrow five dollars? I'm sorry, I meant five

465
00:26:35.759 --> 00:26:40.000
cases of dollars. Give give it up, hand it over,

466
00:26:41.319 --> 00:26:44.400
Oh my gosh. And that number is growing thanks to

467
00:26:44.480 --> 00:26:49.440
some basic biology. Many of the mice arrived pregnant, oh god,

468
00:26:50.240 --> 00:26:53.519
and at Christmas right, yeah, around Christmas time, so one

469
00:26:53.559 --> 00:26:57.559
of them could have been like giving birth to the Messiah. Yeah,

470
00:26:57.880 --> 00:27:01.359
you don't know. Yeah, there was no room at the end,

471
00:27:01.480 --> 00:27:03.960
so they had to all cod to the Humane Society

472
00:27:03.960 --> 00:27:07.920
of New Hampshire. Yeah, one of the quote one of

473
00:27:07.960 --> 00:27:11.200
the challenges is that gestation is short and breeding begins

474
00:27:11.359 --> 00:27:16.079
very early on, said Dennison. Quote it's an enormous problem.

475
00:27:16.119 --> 00:27:20.200
This is something that got out of control significantly. Part

476
00:27:20.240 --> 00:27:23.200
of the shelter, I bet. I mean, you've got to

477
00:27:23.240 --> 00:27:27.839
sex segregate the mice. It's like the only option. When

478
00:27:27.880 --> 00:27:30.960
I was a kid, my dad used to breed mice

479
00:27:31.440 --> 00:27:35.079
to feed his lizards because he had he had a snake,

480
00:27:35.119 --> 00:27:37.759
and he had a monitor lizard, and he had an alligator.

481
00:27:38.720 --> 00:27:41.200
Although he wouldn't feed the alligator anything alive because he

482
00:27:41.200 --> 00:27:44.160
said it makes them aggressive, so he'd only feed that

483
00:27:44.279 --> 00:27:47.799
like dead fish or like meat.

484
00:27:48.440 --> 00:27:51.319
That's said because that alligator probably wanted a live things

485
00:27:51.599 --> 00:27:52.039
really bad.

486
00:27:52.200 --> 00:27:53.440
He wanted a lot of killing.

487
00:27:53.960 --> 00:27:54.319
Yeah.

488
00:27:54.680 --> 00:27:58.920
Yeah. The monitor lizard's name was Doc. I remember that.

489
00:28:00.119 --> 00:28:02.079
But I remember just being like ah, because I thought

490
00:28:02.119 --> 00:28:04.160
the mice were so cute. I don't really care about

491
00:28:04.200 --> 00:28:06.880
the I mean the lizard's were right, you know, Yeah,

492
00:28:06.920 --> 00:28:11.680
they were fine. I guess. Part of the shelter's cat

493
00:28:11.720 --> 00:28:14.960
pavilion has been turned into a mouse hospital and hotel,

494
00:28:15.599 --> 00:28:18.559
with dozens of containers lined up on the floor. Resting

495
00:28:18.599 --> 00:28:22.400
atop multiple tables and stacked on shelves. It's a lot

496
00:28:22.400 --> 00:28:25.240
of work for a facility that at most once took

497
00:28:25.279 --> 00:28:27.880
in one hundred and twenty five animals in one day.

498
00:28:28.240 --> 00:28:29.880
Oh my god, those poor people.

499
00:28:30.799 --> 00:28:33.359
Quote, it does happen where you take a large number.

500
00:28:33.599 --> 00:28:36.319
But even when we took in fifty four goats or

501
00:28:36.359 --> 00:28:39.160
we took in thirty nine cats, I mean, those are

502
00:28:39.200 --> 00:28:42.559
still large numbers, but much more manageable, as you can imagine,

503
00:28:42.680 --> 00:28:47.839
than hundreds and hundreds of mice. Dennison said, Yeah, that's

504
00:28:48.319 --> 00:28:48.880
a lot of mice.

505
00:28:49.440 --> 00:28:52.279
Can't they just shift them to other humane societies like

506
00:28:52.519 --> 00:28:54.119
a box each got?

507
00:28:54.519 --> 00:28:58.279
No, I really don't know, because, like mice is, it's

508
00:28:58.319 --> 00:29:01.240
tricky with mice too, because they do breed so aggressively,

509
00:29:01.799 --> 00:29:05.640
whether in captivity or in nature. Yeah, what do you

510
00:29:05.680 --> 00:29:06.200
do with them?

511
00:29:07.039 --> 00:29:09.519
And put them outside?

512
00:29:10.920 --> 00:29:13.359
But that could cause an immense amount of problems and

513
00:29:13.359 --> 00:29:17.200
most of them would just die, which then it's like

514
00:29:17.359 --> 00:29:19.880
but then it's like, okay, so you're just sparing yourself

515
00:29:20.759 --> 00:29:24.599
the agony of being involved in their deaths, but giving

516
00:29:24.640 --> 00:29:29.200
them a worse death, No worse, you don't know. I mean, like,

517
00:29:29.279 --> 00:29:31.119
if you're going to go that route, why not just

518
00:29:31.200 --> 00:29:35.640
give them to lizard breeders to eat. I'm not saying

519
00:29:35.680 --> 00:29:38.000
that's what they should do. I'm just saying, like, if

520
00:29:38.039 --> 00:29:40.599
the answer is like, who cares about their well being? Well,

521
00:29:40.640 --> 00:29:45.200
then why then I guess you could just do that.

522
00:29:45.720 --> 00:29:46.680
Yeah.

523
00:29:46.720 --> 00:29:48.640
It also doesn't say what type of mice they are,

524
00:29:48.680 --> 00:29:50.720
like if they're a special breed of mice, because there

525
00:29:50.720 --> 00:29:53.400
are lots of different breeds of mice. It doesn't say

526
00:29:53.400 --> 00:29:55.839
any of that stuff either. But also, I just feel

527
00:29:55.839 --> 00:29:59.799
bad because I know that animal lovers can get really

528
00:30:00.319 --> 00:30:02.200
they can kind of lose the plot pretty quick. I mean,

529
00:30:02.240 --> 00:30:05.359
I'm an animal lover, but not like I have friends

530
00:30:05.400 --> 00:30:10.319
who like breed lizards and breed mice and rats, and

531
00:30:10.359 --> 00:30:11.440
I'm not that kind of person.

532
00:30:11.920 --> 00:30:13.559
Yeah yeah, but.

533
00:30:13.200 --> 00:30:15.920
But I could see, like, you know, feeling happy to

534
00:30:15.960 --> 00:30:17.680
be breeding mice, and then all of a sudden, you're like,

535
00:30:17.720 --> 00:30:20.759
I have hundreds of mice. Yeah shit, you know, I

536
00:30:20.799 --> 00:30:22.440
don't want any of them to die, so I guess

537
00:30:22.440 --> 00:30:25.400
I'll just keep them and allow them to keep breeding unrestrained.

538
00:30:25.680 --> 00:30:28.680
That's not good, that's not good. That's bad for the mice.

539
00:30:30.559 --> 00:30:35.680
But they seem to be holding on, so I guess

540
00:30:35.720 --> 00:30:39.119
that's what matters. Oh, but here this answers your question.

541
00:30:39.200 --> 00:30:42.039
The last line of the article says other shelters have

542
00:30:42.200 --> 00:30:44.799
agreed to take some of the mice, and some are

543
00:30:44.839 --> 00:30:48.720
being sent to foster homes. At least four at least

544
00:30:48.799 --> 00:30:53.079
four were adopted Friday. Guys, that's a solid dent on

545
00:30:53.119 --> 00:30:57.480
that in that nearly one thousand. Wow, we did it.

546
00:31:00.440 --> 00:31:06.759
Four Ooh. We have some comments from a guy who

547
00:31:06.759 --> 00:31:10.720
calls himself Bernie Lizard or Bernie is Land. Sorry, I

548
00:31:10.759 --> 00:31:13.000
misread that this happened to me when I was ten,

549
00:31:13.039 --> 00:31:15.319
because my mother had mistakenly brought home a male and

550
00:31:15.359 --> 00:31:18.000
a female mouse for my birthday, having been told they

551
00:31:18.000 --> 00:31:20.680
were two males, which should never be housed together anyway

552
00:31:20.720 --> 00:31:25.079
because they'll kill each other. That is true that that

553
00:31:25.119 --> 00:31:29.880
happened with my mice. No, the last two mice I had,

554
00:31:29.920 --> 00:31:35.200
they killed each other. I didn't know about the male thing.

555
00:31:35.680 --> 00:31:38.720
Within weeks we had cages and sinks and bathtubs full

556
00:31:38.759 --> 00:31:40.920
of them. The problem is, by the time they're old

557
00:31:41.000 --> 00:31:44.359
enough you can tell their sex, they're old enough to breed. Yeah,

558
00:31:44.480 --> 00:31:48.160
I'm very happy to have them. Bird Rehabilitation Sanctuary was

559
00:31:48.200 --> 00:31:50.319
kind enough to take them off my hands, Thank Gord,

560
00:31:50.839 --> 00:31:54.000
says Gord. I spent the next few years breeding them

561
00:31:54.000 --> 00:32:01.440
for this purpose, but never let things get like that again. Uh,

562
00:32:01.680 --> 00:32:04.119
Melinda said, I am a total animal lover, but keeping

563
00:32:04.200 --> 00:32:05.920
them in a cage is not the answer. If you

564
00:32:05.960 --> 00:32:08.759
feel badly about euthanasia, load them all up and release

565
00:32:08.799 --> 00:32:11.039
them into the wild at a good distance away. All

566
00:32:11.039 --> 00:32:13.079
the predators will have a fine meal and the problem

567
00:32:13.079 --> 00:32:16.759
will be solved. I don't like Melinda, that's mean.

568
00:32:17.759 --> 00:32:20.400
Yeah.

569
00:32:20.480 --> 00:32:23.119
Yeah, why did I read the comments? It's always an

570
00:32:23.119 --> 00:32:26.599
awful decision. Yeah, I made a horrible decision. My new

571
00:32:26.720 --> 00:32:29.000
that's it. You know what, Shell, My new year's resolution

572
00:32:29.160 --> 00:32:30.920
is going to be not to read the comments.

573
00:32:31.240 --> 00:32:36.519
Okay, that make you less sad, probably in theory.

574
00:32:37.000 --> 00:32:41.920
Yeah, But we have more spooky news sans comments after this.

575
00:32:49.880 --> 00:32:53.559
All right, we're back with even more spooky news. And

576
00:32:53.640 --> 00:32:58.960
now I know you've been waiting for this cell No, yes,

577
00:32:59.000 --> 00:33:04.559
you have. We have a story from Mirror dot co

578
00:33:04.799 --> 00:33:05.680
dot uk.

579
00:33:06.720 --> 00:33:08.240
Okay, I was kind of waiting for that.

580
00:33:12.519 --> 00:33:14.720
And this is the kind of headline that only Mirror

581
00:33:14.759 --> 00:33:16.880
dot co dot uk would serve.

582
00:33:16.839 --> 00:33:19.200
Us because it has like Typo's in.

583
00:33:19.240 --> 00:33:23.480
It or their headlines don't generally have typos, although they

584
00:33:23.480 --> 00:33:29.119
do have like grammatical errors sometimes. But this says terrifying

585
00:33:29.160 --> 00:33:33.440
moment ghost opens creaky door in Britain's most haunted house.

586
00:33:34.079 --> 00:33:37.519
Oh there should have been a common after terrifying moment

587
00:33:37.599 --> 00:33:40.680
because that was weird the way that we're Yeah, but

588
00:33:40.880 --> 00:33:43.839
don't worry, Shelle. This story is based on the TikTok

589
00:33:44.160 --> 00:33:49.480
so it's real needs. The subheading says paranormal investigators. The

590
00:33:49.519 --> 00:33:52.240
Occult Family were filming a TikTok live video at a

591
00:33:52.279 --> 00:33:55.480
Pontefract property known as Britain's Most Haunted House when they

592
00:33:55.519 --> 00:33:59.240
captured the creepy evidence. I feel like Britain has a

593
00:33:59.279 --> 00:34:00.000
lot of most haunted.

594
00:34:00.720 --> 00:34:01.079
Yeah.

595
00:34:01.240 --> 00:34:03.720
Yeah, every other week we're learning about a new most

596
00:34:03.799 --> 00:34:05.240
Haunted house in all of Britain.

597
00:34:05.960 --> 00:34:09.480
Yeah. Maybe most doesn't mean what it means here.

598
00:34:10.800 --> 00:34:15.039
Maybe I just google what does the British most mean?

599
00:34:16.320 --> 00:34:20.119
A ghost hunting family has captured terrifying footage of the

600
00:34:20.159 --> 00:34:24.119
moment a ghost appears to open a creaky door in

601
00:34:24.159 --> 00:34:27.599
a haunted house that they were investigating. Known as the

602
00:34:27.719 --> 00:34:31.800
Occult Family. The paranormal enthusiasts were hosting a TikTok live

603
00:34:31.880 --> 00:34:34.880
video as they investigated the house when all of a

604
00:34:34.920 --> 00:34:39.679
sudden there rose such a chatter no sorry, When all

605
00:34:39.679 --> 00:34:42.480
of a sudden the door appeared to fling itself open.

606
00:34:43.159 --> 00:34:45.960
Thirty eight year old Timmy Jeffrey and her partner JP

607
00:34:46.239 --> 00:34:50.159
thirty four, were left shocked at what they witnessed, given

608
00:34:50.519 --> 00:34:55.239
that the movement of the door seemed completely unnatural.

609
00:34:57.039 --> 00:34:59.719
I mean, doors open, that's not really unnatural.

610
00:35:00.039 --> 00:35:03.639
Okay, how but that's not the most common thing. Doors do.

611
00:35:04.639 --> 00:35:06.760
What is close not do anything?

612
00:35:09.239 --> 00:35:11.000
I mean, I guess it depends on what you consider

613
00:35:11.079 --> 00:35:14.559
the function of a door. Some would say the function

614
00:35:14.679 --> 00:35:16.480
is to keep things out. Some would say the function

615
00:35:16.559 --> 00:35:19.480
is to let things through. I'm on the let things

616
00:35:19.519 --> 00:35:21.840
through camp, because I believe you put a door into

617
00:35:21.840 --> 00:35:23.880
a wall. You don't build a wall around a door.

618
00:35:25.199 --> 00:35:25.840
Are you sure?

619
00:35:26.280 --> 00:35:29.559
I'm not sure. You're the home inspector here, you tell

620
00:35:29.599 --> 00:35:30.960
me how it's supposed to be done.

621
00:35:31.280 --> 00:35:34.039
You put the door up, and then you're like, okay,

622
00:35:34.079 --> 00:35:36.800
so that's how you get in. So what are you

623
00:35:36.840 --> 00:35:37.519
going to get in?

624
00:35:37.599 --> 00:35:43.440
Now we have this door, we may as well make

625
00:35:43.480 --> 00:35:44.400
it enter something.

626
00:35:44.760 --> 00:35:46.599
Yeah.

627
00:35:47.079 --> 00:35:51.000
That's actually how homes were invented. Structures were invented was

628
00:35:51.039 --> 00:35:52.760
a guy built a door and was like, yeah, it's

629
00:35:52.800 --> 00:35:56.000
a nice door, should go into something, so that he

630
00:35:56.159 --> 00:35:57.320
invented structures.

631
00:35:58.000 --> 00:36:00.000
That's exactly what happens, beautiful.

632
00:36:00.079 --> 00:36:07.960
His name was uh Uga Buga Chad from nineteen twenty four.

633
00:36:09.199 --> 00:36:11.920
It's just riding a bicycle with a big top front

634
00:36:11.920 --> 00:36:17.480
wheel and he's just like, I say, invented door. Sorry,

635
00:36:17.559 --> 00:36:21.679
I I'm a silly man. I am just now starting

636
00:36:21.719 --> 00:36:23.599
to be fully recovered from the holidays. There was so

637
00:36:23.719 --> 00:36:27.039
much going on. Yeah, it was fun, but it was tiring.

638
00:36:28.000 --> 00:36:31.440
The family from Cheshire heard a creek near the entrance

639
00:36:31.480 --> 00:36:35.159
before the spooky moment. Kimmy then asked anyone who was

640
00:36:35.199 --> 00:36:37.920
there to move the door, which is when it appeared

641
00:36:38.360 --> 00:36:44.760
to open by itself. Are you scared yet?

642
00:36:47.480 --> 00:36:50.000
Yeah, that the door is not properly balanced.

643
00:36:50.760 --> 00:36:53.079
Ooh. The best part is there's a picture of the

644
00:36:53.119 --> 00:36:54.920
door and it's just a door. There's a TV tray

645
00:36:54.920 --> 00:36:56.920
on the other side. Like it's just the most normal,

646
00:36:57.199 --> 00:37:00.960
average door ever. Like, it's not a Victorian door, it's

647
00:37:01.000 --> 00:37:03.400
not an ornate door. It's just like a white door

648
00:37:03.920 --> 00:37:05.920
in a room of white walls that goes to another

649
00:37:06.039 --> 00:37:08.639
room and there's literally a TV train in what looks

650
00:37:08.679 --> 00:37:10.719
like maybe it's a computer router or something like that.

651
00:37:12.480 --> 00:37:14.519
I also like they posted a picture of over their kids,

652
00:37:14.519 --> 00:37:17.920
and their kids are named Snow and Pebble. We've we've

653
00:37:18.199 --> 00:37:20.639
the Mirro dot codat UK's talked about them before. I

654
00:37:21.000 --> 00:37:24.840
remember a paranormal investigation family with a Snow and a Pebble.

655
00:37:26.360 --> 00:37:29.920
I don't we've done a lot of these. Yeah, we've

656
00:37:29.920 --> 00:37:33.599
done over twenty of these. Wow, So it's okay that

657
00:37:33.679 --> 00:37:37.760
you you immediately have to drink to forget when it's over.

658
00:37:39.199 --> 00:37:42.239
You're like, don't don't send me a nice dinner after record,

659
00:37:42.400 --> 00:37:46.920
send me unfiltered whiskey. Yeah, or filtered whisky. Whatever is

660
00:37:46.960 --> 00:37:47.639
the worst one?

661
00:37:47.880 --> 00:37:49.800
Yeah, I don't know which one is the one.

662
00:37:51.480 --> 00:37:54.199
Quote. The door didn't just swing open like it would

663
00:37:54.199 --> 00:37:57.599
if a draft hit it. No windows were open or drafts.

664
00:37:57.800 --> 00:38:01.400
I like the like, there's no windows or drafts. They

665
00:38:01.440 --> 00:38:04.239
said the door opened as if someone was listening to

666
00:38:04.360 --> 00:38:05.599
us and pushed it open.

667
00:38:09.000 --> 00:38:10.039
Yeah.

668
00:38:10.159 --> 00:38:12.480
Did they try asking everybody around like, hey, did anybody

669
00:38:12.480 --> 00:38:12.719
do that?

670
00:38:14.400 --> 00:38:15.320
Yeah? They did?

671
00:38:16.239 --> 00:38:19.360
Okay, good quote. At the time, we were shocked that

672
00:38:19.440 --> 00:38:22.239
the door opened on command and that the door actually

673
00:38:22.280 --> 00:38:25.000
opened with no one near the door. We tried to

674
00:38:25.000 --> 00:38:27.639
debunk it and shut the door again, asking whoever did

675
00:38:27.679 --> 00:38:30.360
it to do it again. The door did not move

676
00:38:30.519 --> 00:38:33.960
all evening. Wait, how is that debunking it? We closed

677
00:38:34.000 --> 00:38:35.760
it and asked it to do it again and it didn't.

678
00:38:35.880 --> 00:38:41.159
That debunks it? No, that I don't know if that

679
00:38:41.280 --> 00:38:44.960
bunks it? Does that bunk it? Then? If it's not debunking.

680
00:38:44.400 --> 00:38:48.320
It, I think I think that that if if they

681
00:38:48.400 --> 00:38:51.599
closed it and opened back up again immediately, would be

682
00:38:52.079 --> 00:38:52.760
debunking it.

683
00:38:52.920 --> 00:38:54.519
Well, the problem is they said they shut the door

684
00:38:54.559 --> 00:38:56.800
and asked whoever did it to do it again.

685
00:38:57.639 --> 00:38:59.320
Yeah, so we really didn't get anything.

686
00:38:59.400 --> 00:39:02.159
Now, Yeah, because if they were debunking, they just close

687
00:39:02.239 --> 00:39:04.480
it to see if it naturally did it again. But

688
00:39:04.559 --> 00:39:06.119
by saying could you do that again and then it

689
00:39:06.159 --> 00:39:08.880
not happening, how is that proving anything? Either way?

690
00:39:09.239 --> 00:39:11.000
It might prove that the ghost really didn't want the

691
00:39:11.000 --> 00:39:13.360
door to open again, so they're holding it closed now.

692
00:39:14.400 --> 00:39:17.239
Okay, now I'm following. See all I needed was a

693
00:39:17.360 --> 00:39:21.599
tiny bit of logic. Yeah, yes, it's all I needed. Quote.

694
00:39:21.639 --> 00:39:24.800
This is a very rare occasion. We have been investigating

695
00:39:24.840 --> 00:39:27.119
for two years and have only had three things that

696
00:39:27.159 --> 00:39:30.679
we caught that we can truly say are paranormal. Usually

697
00:39:30.679 --> 00:39:33.679
in the paranormal world, things happen off camera and are

698
00:39:33.719 --> 00:39:34.199
not caught.

699
00:39:36.559 --> 00:39:38.360
The ghosts now they don't want to get caught.

700
00:39:38.880 --> 00:39:41.039
I like that. They're like, look, all we do is

701
00:39:41.079 --> 00:39:43.719
make a career out of catching paranormal things or like

702
00:39:43.800 --> 00:39:46.280
trying to investigate them with cameras. By the way, they

703
00:39:46.320 --> 00:39:49.360
never happen on camera, And no matter how much we

704
00:39:49.440 --> 00:39:52.599
add more cameras to our lives, they never happen on camera.

705
00:39:53.039 --> 00:39:53.320
Yeah.

706
00:39:53.400 --> 00:39:54.880
It's only when just don't.

707
00:39:55.280 --> 00:39:58.800
Yeah, like you walk out the door and then it happens.

708
00:39:59.239 --> 00:40:04.960
Yeah, this, this is freaking ridiculous quote. We have had

709
00:40:04.960 --> 00:40:07.960
many people contact us via our social media saying that

710
00:40:08.000 --> 00:40:11.000
they have visited the house on numerous occasions and been

711
00:40:11.039 --> 00:40:13.519
in the room and know that door does not open

712
00:40:13.679 --> 00:40:14.679
naturally like that.

713
00:40:15.280 --> 00:40:15.559
Mm.

714
00:40:17.199 --> 00:40:19.119
We used to film a bunch of scary movies in

715
00:40:19.159 --> 00:40:22.960
this little house in Waynesville, Ohio that was not abandoned,

716
00:40:23.000 --> 00:40:25.360
but it was owned by a family and nobody lived

717
00:40:25.400 --> 00:40:30.000
there full time. It was basically used for storage and

718
00:40:30.400 --> 00:40:32.719
to do They would do a yard sale every year

719
00:40:32.760 --> 00:40:34.000
to try and pay the tax bill.

720
00:40:34.679 --> 00:40:35.000
Wow.

721
00:40:35.320 --> 00:40:37.559
So people would store like knick knacks and crap that

722
00:40:37.719 --> 00:40:40.280
was going to be put out to sell from the family.

723
00:40:41.000 --> 00:40:43.119
So we would film there with the agreement that we

724
00:40:43.119 --> 00:40:48.119
would respect the property and protect the property inside, and

725
00:40:48.159 --> 00:40:49.639
we filmed. I mean, we did a good job. We

726
00:40:49.679 --> 00:40:52.360
filmed like six or seven films there, a varying degree.

727
00:40:52.400 --> 00:40:54.920
Some of them were entirely in this old house, some

728
00:40:54.960 --> 00:40:57.599
of them weren't. It was a really great location. I'm

729
00:40:57.599 --> 00:41:01.840
sad because now somebody lives there full time that anymore. Yeah,

730
00:41:02.119 --> 00:41:04.320
well I'm happy that. I'm happy the house has somebody

731
00:41:04.400 --> 00:41:06.800
living in it, So what's being taken care of? Though? Yeah,

732
00:41:06.840 --> 00:41:08.119
but that was like, I mean you could be on

733
00:41:08.159 --> 00:41:10.320
the top floor and like move your weight around really

734
00:41:10.360 --> 00:41:11.840
fast and feel the house shift.

735
00:41:12.320 --> 00:41:12.719
Mm hmm.

736
00:41:13.880 --> 00:41:16.119
That's I think it was built in like nineteen hundred.

737
00:41:16.679 --> 00:41:17.599
Yeah. I to get like that.

738
00:41:18.199 --> 00:41:20.840
Yeah, or they were always like that and it was

739
00:41:20.920 --> 00:41:21.360
just fine.

740
00:41:21.840 --> 00:41:24.280
But yeah, but not.

741
00:41:24.280 --> 00:41:26.079
A bad house. I mean, it's a pretty cool house

742
00:41:26.440 --> 00:41:28.199
near a gun range. That was the only negative. You

743
00:41:28.199 --> 00:41:30.840
could hear the gun firing sometimes.

744
00:41:30.559 --> 00:41:31.760
Yeah, like where I grew up.

745
00:41:32.000 --> 00:41:34.000
Yeah, man, lucky.

746
00:41:34.039 --> 00:41:36.320
So yeah, you know, I didn't know what that was

747
00:41:37.480 --> 00:41:40.360
until I was an adult. We just always heard the

748
00:41:40.440 --> 00:41:43.039
sound and just thought like, Oh, it's just some weird

749
00:41:43.079 --> 00:41:45.960
thing that happens here. And then like at some point,

750
00:41:46.119 --> 00:41:47.400
like one of my parents was like, no, there's a

751
00:41:47.400 --> 00:41:48.400
gun range over there.

752
00:41:48.880 --> 00:41:51.639
Oh you're lucky I wasn't your friend back then, because

753
00:41:51.639 --> 00:41:53.400
I would have been like, oh, that's the Jersey Devil.

754
00:41:53.960 --> 00:41:55.079
Yeah, that's all.

755
00:41:56.320 --> 00:41:57.760
I remember one of the first times I went out

756
00:41:57.760 --> 00:42:00.159
there and I was with an actress i'd been working with,

757
00:42:00.400 --> 00:42:02.039
and she and we heard the pops and she was like,

758
00:42:02.480 --> 00:42:05.199
is it Hunters? But it was like pop pop pop pop?

759
00:42:05.239 --> 00:42:07.079
And I was like, they must be really good or

760
00:42:07.119 --> 00:42:09.920
really bad hunters then, because they are all they're firing

761
00:42:10.000 --> 00:42:14.239
a lot. Yeah. But there was something that I loved

762
00:42:14.280 --> 00:42:17.119
about that place, which was upstairs. There was this attic

763
00:42:17.199 --> 00:42:21.480
room off of the master bedroom, and it had a

764
00:42:21.519 --> 00:42:24.079
door made of wood planks, you know, just old school

765
00:42:24.960 --> 00:42:28.159
door made of planks. And when you go there, there's

766
00:42:28.199 --> 00:42:31.360
a chair there was a chair just butted up against it,

767
00:42:31.880 --> 00:42:33.199
and if you took the chair off, the door just

768
00:42:33.320 --> 00:42:36.679
open because it just couldn't stay shut on its own. Yeah,

769
00:42:36.719 --> 00:42:39.400
that's why that was there. So I would constantly scare

770
00:42:39.440 --> 00:42:41.360
people when they came to that location for the first

771
00:42:41.360 --> 00:42:43.639
time by moving the chair and then the doors going

772
00:42:47.159 --> 00:42:50.440
because it looked creepy inside too. It was like it

773
00:42:50.519 --> 00:42:53.599
was super old and dirty and full of just random crap,

774
00:42:53.920 --> 00:42:56.000
and the windows were all weird shaped, you know, like

775
00:42:56.119 --> 00:42:59.400
antique shaped, you know, like stuff that we wouldn't do now,

776
00:43:00.639 --> 00:43:02.280
so it would like creep people out there be like

777
00:43:02.480 --> 00:43:04.679
h The other thing I loved about that place was

778
00:43:04.679 --> 00:43:07.199
they had a gazebo put in in the eighties, so

779
00:43:07.280 --> 00:43:09.159
it was like very much more modern compared to the

780
00:43:09.159 --> 00:43:11.719
rest of the house. But they built the gazebo over

781
00:43:11.760 --> 00:43:14.840
the entrance to the cellar, which made the cellar accessible

782
00:43:14.840 --> 00:43:18.079
from inside the house, which is nice, right, I mean,

783
00:43:18.079 --> 00:43:19.559
to be able to go to the cellar from inside.

784
00:43:20.239 --> 00:43:22.840
But it had this like you pulled this string this

785
00:43:22.960 --> 00:43:25.679
rope down and it would like you know, open up,

786
00:43:25.760 --> 00:43:28.199
like straight up, and then you'd walk down there and

787
00:43:28.239 --> 00:43:32.559
it was very creepy. Yeah, full of preserves, that was all.

788
00:43:32.599 --> 00:43:35.920
It was full of shelves and shelves of jars. And

789
00:43:36.079 --> 00:43:39.039
one year we came back and a bunch of the

790
00:43:39.079 --> 00:43:42.920
shelves had fallen over and the jar and wel we

791
00:43:43.000 --> 00:43:45.920
told the family, We're like, we didn't do this. We

792
00:43:45.960 --> 00:43:48.079
would tell you if we did, we'd antmit it, but

793
00:43:48.199 --> 00:43:50.679
like this had happened, and they were like, oh, I

794
00:43:50.719 --> 00:43:54.559
don't even know how long that had, like they had

795
00:43:54.599 --> 00:43:56.719
been in there, Like they were like, oh, those shelves

796
00:43:56.719 --> 00:44:00.159
probably just collapsed because they were rotting or something like

797
00:44:00.199 --> 00:44:03.360
we weren't checking on it in any way. Well, what

798
00:44:03.400 --> 00:44:04.719
would you like us do? And they're like, oh, don't,

799
00:44:04.760 --> 00:44:06.880
don't worry, don't bother yourself with broken glass and stuff,

800
00:44:06.920 --> 00:44:10.000
just like just don't mess with it. And we're like, okay,

801
00:44:10.199 --> 00:44:11.920
So we just shot on the other side of the

802
00:44:11.920 --> 00:44:14.639
basement where there wasn't broken glass. It didn't stink down

803
00:44:14.679 --> 00:44:17.400
there too bad, so.

804
00:44:17.920 --> 00:44:20.880
Huh, maybe maybe it had been a while.

805
00:44:21.480 --> 00:44:23.519
Yeah, it had been at least seven or eight months

806
00:44:23.599 --> 00:44:30.119
since we had been down there minimum, so anyway. They

807
00:44:30.159 --> 00:44:33.079
shared an account of their experience on various social media platforms,

808
00:44:33.159 --> 00:44:35.480
including Facebook, explaining that they were at quote one of

809
00:44:35.519 --> 00:44:40.320
the most perceived haunted houses in Europe. Located in Pontefract,

810
00:44:40.440 --> 00:44:42.760
The family explained that they had been here on many

811
00:44:42.800 --> 00:44:47.039
occasions with subtle, if any activity. The Pontifact home holds

812
00:44:47.039 --> 00:44:49.840
the reputations one of Britain's most haunted houses home to

813
00:44:49.880 --> 00:44:53.119
one of the most violent poultergeists in the world. The

814
00:44:53.199 --> 00:44:56.280
nineteen fifties Council House was home to the Pritchard family

815
00:44:56.440 --> 00:45:00.519
from August nineteen sixty six. Would strange things immediately started happening.

816
00:45:00.840 --> 00:45:02.840
Pools of water appeared in front of their eyes with

817
00:45:02.880 --> 00:45:06.400
no explanation. Green foam appeared from taps and toilets even

818
00:45:06.440 --> 00:45:09.519
after the water was turned off. Cupboards would shake violently,

819
00:45:09.719 --> 00:45:12.960
photos were slashed with a sharp knife, and countless objects

820
00:45:12.960 --> 00:45:16.920
would levitate or be thrown, including a solid oak sideboard.

821
00:45:17.239 --> 00:45:21.000
The family referred to their poltergeist guest as Fred.

822
00:45:23.199 --> 00:45:25.320
I mean, if all of that's true, that would be

823
00:45:25.360 --> 00:45:28.199
really upsetting, but I somehow doubt it since this family

824
00:45:28.719 --> 00:45:31.800
of a cult family went there and all that happened

825
00:45:31.840 --> 00:45:32.960
was the door opened.

826
00:45:34.679 --> 00:45:37.400
I've heard of the Pontefract home. It just slipped my

827
00:45:37.440 --> 00:45:40.280
mind because I remember the ghost being named Fred. In

828
00:45:40.320 --> 00:45:43.159
a bid to evict Fred, exorcisms were held, but walls

829
00:45:43.199 --> 00:45:46.280
would seep holy water. People were slapped and even pushed

830
00:45:46.320 --> 00:45:47.079
down the stairs.

831
00:45:47.280 --> 00:45:50.719
No no, no, no, no, no no. Uh how did they

832
00:45:50.760 --> 00:45:52.800
know it was holy water that the walls were seeping.

833
00:45:53.159 --> 00:45:55.320
Oh, this is the hill you're gonna die on. Yes,

834
00:45:55.480 --> 00:45:56.199
there's no way.

835
00:45:56.079 --> 00:45:58.639
You would know that, so it's just all bullshits.

836
00:45:58.679 --> 00:46:00.800
Well, basically, one of the people who was investigating was

837
00:46:00.800 --> 00:46:04.119
a vampire and when they to oh okay, then they

838
00:46:04.119 --> 00:46:06.719
were like, ah, this doesn't like an acid, it must

839
00:46:06.760 --> 00:46:11.079
be holy water. In one chilling event, Diane, the Pritchard's

840
00:46:11.159 --> 00:46:14.360
daughter was dragged, kicking and screaming up the stairs. Eventually,

841
00:46:14.400 --> 00:46:17.079
the family fled in the nineteen eighties and the property

842
00:46:17.119 --> 00:46:18.760
has not been lived in since.

843
00:46:19.440 --> 00:46:25.679
Mmmm, that's a long time.

844
00:46:26.159 --> 00:46:28.440
Yeah, we'll look into maybe I'll ask you some questions

845
00:46:28.480 --> 00:46:30.719
about what could have caused those things as a home inspector,

846
00:46:31.079 --> 00:46:41.280
But after this and we are back now before we

847
00:46:41.400 --> 00:46:44.840
jump into some more spooky news though Chell, As a

848
00:46:44.880 --> 00:46:48.960
home inspector, when you hear pools of water appeared in

849
00:46:48.960 --> 00:46:52.159
front of their eyes with no explanation, what do you

850
00:46:52.199 --> 00:46:53.239
think might be causing that?

851
00:46:53.760 --> 00:46:59.440
Like a pipe break in probably, Or like it's raining

852
00:46:59.480 --> 00:47:03.400
outside and your roof has a leak, it's probably one

853
00:47:03.480 --> 00:47:09.639
of those, yeah, Or your refrigerators leaking, or your sink

854
00:47:09.719 --> 00:47:13.239
is leaking. That's a pipe again, I don't your first.

855
00:47:12.960 --> 00:47:15.159
Instinct be to check, like the attic, to see if

856
00:47:15.159 --> 00:47:16.559
it's from the ceiling or from the roof.

857
00:47:16.639 --> 00:47:19.000
Rather, my first instinct would be to look at the

858
00:47:19.039 --> 00:47:21.599
ceiling and see where it's coming from, Like, do you

859
00:47:21.679 --> 00:47:25.239
see water on the ceiling? Is there a stain? That

860
00:47:25.360 --> 00:47:26.039
kind of stuff?

861
00:47:27.239 --> 00:47:30.719
Now, what about me? What about this one? Green foam

862
00:47:30.800 --> 00:47:34.639
appeared from taps and toilets even after the water was

863
00:47:34.639 --> 00:47:37.119
turned off, So.

864
00:47:37.159 --> 00:47:42.639
I assume there's just something new. There's just probably something

865
00:47:42.679 --> 00:47:46.599
in the line that's causing it, Like maybe there's a

866
00:47:46.679 --> 00:47:49.280
hole in the line somewhere and some sort of chemicals

867
00:47:49.280 --> 00:47:52.280
have gotten in and they're still in there even if

868
00:47:52.320 --> 00:47:55.000
you turn the taps off, like it's still sitting in there.

869
00:47:55.559 --> 00:47:57.360
But also, I just don't believe that happened.

870
00:47:57.800 --> 00:48:01.440
So damn Kiddy's got claws over here.

871
00:48:01.559 --> 00:48:03.880
Maybe it had. Maybe it's like a chemical reaction to

872
00:48:04.000 --> 00:48:05.760
like what the pipes are made of, but I don't

873
00:48:05.800 --> 00:48:07.719
really know what that would be weird.

874
00:48:07.840 --> 00:48:12.000
I don't know, Yeah, that would be weird. And then

875
00:48:12.360 --> 00:48:13.719
cupboards shaking.

876
00:48:13.440 --> 00:48:16.000
Violently they they're near a train.

877
00:48:18.079 --> 00:48:21.000
Well, you know, the Europeans love to brag and brag

878
00:48:21.039 --> 00:48:24.000
and brag about all their great rail systems and all

879
00:48:24.000 --> 00:48:24.760
this stuff.

880
00:48:24.559 --> 00:48:25.760
Their public transportation.

881
00:48:26.199 --> 00:48:29.599
So it's so great, Well does it shake your whole house?

882
00:48:29.800 --> 00:48:31.960
We don't know. We have ghosts.

883
00:48:34.400 --> 00:48:38.239
Where I grew up. When planes flew overhead and they

884
00:48:38.239 --> 00:48:41.760
weren't flying very low, they would shake the cabinets.

885
00:48:44.960 --> 00:48:47.039
I believe you now, Uh, you got it. I live

886
00:48:47.119 --> 00:48:50.519
near one of the biggest Air Force baces in America.

887
00:48:51.480 --> 00:48:55.719
I live near Wright Patterson Air Force Bace. So every

888
00:48:55.800 --> 00:48:57.440
now and then it's rare. I mean when I say

889
00:48:57.440 --> 00:48:59.920
every now and then, I mean like every three four years,

890
00:49:00.719 --> 00:49:04.159
Like we get like a sonic boom or something. Yeah,

891
00:49:04.239 --> 00:49:06.199
and everybody goes hu. And then we're all on social

892
00:49:06.199 --> 00:49:08.000
media and they're like, yeah, the Air Force did a thing.

893
00:49:08.840 --> 00:49:13.159
Although the funniest sonic boom air quotes funniest was when

894
00:49:13.199 --> 00:49:16.400
they did when they had an unexpected sonic boom from

895
00:49:16.400 --> 00:49:19.480
the Air Force base on September eleventh, two thousand and one.

896
00:49:20.039 --> 00:49:27.559
Oh God, that didn't scare everyone. Wow, that was It

897
00:49:27.599 --> 00:49:30.800
was so scary. We're just sitting around. I'm like on like,

898
00:49:31.239 --> 00:49:34.000
I'm painting you a picture. I'm on Alell instant messenger,

899
00:49:34.159 --> 00:49:37.519
like with my friends after school and we're all talking

900
00:49:37.559 --> 00:49:39.239
about like, what the hell. I'm like, and I think

901
00:49:39.239 --> 00:49:41.440
it was an eighth grade or ninth grade. I think

902
00:49:41.440 --> 00:49:44.079
it was eighth grade. We're like, yeah, what the hell?

903
00:49:44.559 --> 00:49:51.239
Then burn They're all like it turned out as fighter

904
00:49:51.280 --> 00:49:55.280
jets heading I'm guessing to d C. To secure DC

905
00:49:55.400 --> 00:49:58.400
would be my guess. Yeah, and they decided that going

906
00:49:58.440 --> 00:50:00.000
the speed of sound was the way to do it.

907
00:50:00.119 --> 00:50:05.559
I guess. So huh So, anyway, let's talk about some

908
00:50:05.679 --> 00:50:10.880
better fortune. Maybe this one is from Huffington Post. The

909
00:50:10.920 --> 00:50:16.320
headline reads, New York magnet fisher recovers safe full of

910
00:50:16.440 --> 00:50:19.079
soggy one hundred dollar bills.

911
00:50:19.559 --> 00:50:20.480
Yay.

912
00:50:21.559 --> 00:50:24.039
James Kane estimates he found more than one hundred thousand

913
00:50:24.039 --> 00:50:27.199
dollars in damaged currency in the safe.

914
00:50:27.480 --> 00:50:32.280
That's so cool because because since money US currency isn't

915
00:50:32.320 --> 00:50:34.760
made out of paper, it's made basically out of cotton.

916
00:50:35.360 --> 00:50:36.679
Yes, yeah, it's like a fabric.

917
00:50:36.960 --> 00:50:39.760
Yeah, it could just be underwater and everything will be fine.

918
00:50:39.960 --> 00:50:45.719
It does eventually rot, no, because there are those famous

919
00:50:45.760 --> 00:50:47.400
I mean maybe they've changed it since then, but there

920
00:50:47.400 --> 00:50:51.239
are those famous stories about the money that Escobar buried,

921
00:50:51.440 --> 00:50:52.559
like it just started rotting.

922
00:50:53.079 --> 00:50:56.239
I mean yeah, you think eventually, yeah, and.

923
00:50:56.159 --> 00:50:58.960
That wasn't even underwater, that was just underground for too long.

924
00:50:59.159 --> 00:51:02.559
He If you've ever read about Escobar, I can't recommend

925
00:51:02.599 --> 00:51:06.159
it enough. Like he made so much money that he

926
00:51:06.199 --> 00:51:08.960
would bury it to like for safekeeping, because he didn't

927
00:51:08.960 --> 00:51:11.440
want to have too much in banks and shell companies

928
00:51:11.440 --> 00:51:14.360
and stuff. And then he would absolutely forget he'd buried

929
00:51:14.360 --> 00:51:16.079
the money. He'd never go back to it because he

930
00:51:16.159 --> 00:51:20.559
was making so much money it just didn't matter. Yeah,

931
00:51:20.599 --> 00:51:23.280
there was an estimate at one point that his cocaine

932
00:51:23.400 --> 00:51:28.519
operation was making more money than Ford Wow per year.

933
00:51:29.559 --> 00:51:36.719
Oh that's crazy anyway, Highly recommend learning about Escobar. James

934
00:51:36.800 --> 00:51:39.559
Cain has used a magnet to fish all manner of

935
00:51:39.639 --> 00:51:42.719
junk from New York City waterways, but stacks of one

936
00:51:42.840 --> 00:51:45.760
hundred dollars bills he pulled from a safe were something

937
00:51:45.800 --> 00:51:52.440
else entirely. Cain's girlfriend Barbie Agostini thirty nine, Italian last name,

938
00:51:52.880 --> 00:51:54.320
and I don't think this was I don't think this

939
00:51:54.440 --> 00:51:57.280
was an accident. I can make that joke. My girlfriend's

940
00:51:57.320 --> 00:52:01.880
last name is Ridolfhi thought he was joking when he

941
00:52:01.920 --> 00:52:04.920
said their life was about to change, she told Associated

942
00:52:04.920 --> 00:52:08.159
Press on Monday. She was filming as Cane forty pulled

943
00:52:08.199 --> 00:52:11.239
a slimy safe out of a lake in Flushing Meadows

944
00:52:11.440 --> 00:52:15.719
Corona Park and extracted bags of water logged benjamins from

945
00:52:15.800 --> 00:52:21.840
inside it. Oh that's money, Caine said Friday in the

946
00:52:21.880 --> 00:52:25.599
video he posted online. Oh it is stacks of bills. Dude,

947
00:52:25.880 --> 00:52:29.199
I love these quotes. Oh my god, Agustini said in

948
00:52:29.239 --> 00:52:32.800
the video. The couple estimates the safe contained one hundred

949
00:52:32.840 --> 00:52:36.559
thousand dollars in damage currency. The bills featured the three

950
00:52:36.679 --> 00:52:41.480
D security ribbon that indicates recent vintage, but the safe

951
00:52:41.519 --> 00:52:45.079
bore no clues to a rightful owner. That freaks me out.

952
00:52:45.480 --> 00:52:46.880
Yeah, that's really weird.

953
00:52:47.599 --> 00:52:51.800
Yeah, why would there be? Yeah, that's really weird because

954
00:52:51.800 --> 00:52:52.519
that's recent.

955
00:52:52.920 --> 00:52:57.000
So somebody, I mean, unless it was somebody threw a

956
00:52:57.079 --> 00:53:02.519
safe in the lake. Where the hell it was? Wow?

957
00:53:03.079 --> 00:53:07.880
Why, I don't know where? In New York Flushing.

958
00:53:08.480 --> 00:53:10.400
Yeah, so Queens.

959
00:53:11.239 --> 00:53:15.920
Oh okay, so new York, New York. Yeah, like like yeah, okay,

960
00:53:15.920 --> 00:53:18.159
so like yeah, New York City, New York, Flushing Shadows,

961
00:53:18.239 --> 00:53:18.920
Corona Park.

962
00:53:19.320 --> 00:53:20.480
Yeah, it sounds like Queens.

963
00:53:20.840 --> 00:53:24.199
Could it be a hurricane related thing from Sandy?

964
00:53:24.679 --> 00:53:27.079
Hmm? I don't know, I mean, I don't know, how

965
00:53:27.119 --> 00:53:30.719
what parts were affected, you know, but it kind of

966
00:53:30.760 --> 00:53:33.840
seems like a safe wouldn't be you know, like that's

967
00:53:33.880 --> 00:53:34.559
a weird thing.

968
00:53:34.960 --> 00:53:37.159
But it could. It could wash away if you had

969
00:53:37.239 --> 00:53:41.039
enough water pressure, because yeah, especially about air inside it

970
00:53:41.039 --> 00:53:42.960
at first, that would kind of not saying it would

971
00:53:42.960 --> 00:53:45.760
make it float, but it would alleviate the weight underwater.

972
00:53:46.199 --> 00:53:57.320
Maybe maybe Flushing, New York Hurricane Sandy damage spelled everything

973
00:53:57.360 --> 00:54:01.960
wrong that was wonderful. Hurricane Sandy cause significant damage to Flushing,

974
00:54:01.960 --> 00:54:08.559
New York, including flooding, damaged wastewater facilities, economic losses, and displacement.

975
00:54:09.119 --> 00:54:10.840
Okay, so it's possible.

976
00:54:10.840 --> 00:54:13.559
Thousands of homes and estimated two hundred and fifty thousand

977
00:54:13.639 --> 00:54:15.800
vehicles were destroyed. Now, of course that's in New York

978
00:54:15.840 --> 00:54:19.480
in general. It's basically just saying that, yeah, that that's

979
00:54:19.519 --> 00:54:23.199
the same as like, Hurricane Sandy affected New York City

980
00:54:23.360 --> 00:54:23.920
very badly.

981
00:54:24.280 --> 00:54:26.440
Okay, Well, but the thing is like, of course we

982
00:54:26.480 --> 00:54:28.920
don't know, because neither of us are familiar with this

983
00:54:29.039 --> 00:54:32.800
particular lake and stuff. We don't know how affected the

984
00:54:32.800 --> 00:54:35.639
houses around it were, or if it feeds into something

985
00:54:35.639 --> 00:54:36.280
else or.

986
00:54:36.239 --> 00:54:39.599
Well, I'm just gonna go on a limb and say

987
00:54:39.599 --> 00:54:42.559
it has to feed somewhere, because otherwise magnet fishing would

988
00:54:42.639 --> 00:54:45.280
get you nothing. If this was just a body of

989
00:54:45.280 --> 00:54:48.920
water with no no you know, feeding into it or

990
00:54:48.920 --> 00:54:49.320
out of it.

991
00:54:49.559 --> 00:54:53.159
And I mean considering New York City is right on

992
00:54:53.800 --> 00:54:57.280
like the Atlantic pretty much it Yeah, that would make

993
00:54:57.320 --> 00:54:59.039
sense if it fed into something.

994
00:54:59.599 --> 00:55:04.280
Well, apparently it also made dollars. Oh, I'm so funny.

995
00:55:04.320 --> 00:55:06.000
We're going to get into the story a little bit more,

996
00:55:06.000 --> 00:55:08.000
but we need to take a quick break and we'll

997
00:55:08.000 --> 00:55:23.159
be back after this. Now that we're back, let's talk

998
00:55:23.199 --> 00:55:27.800
about this hundred thousand dollars in bills that are like

999
00:55:28.039 --> 00:55:30.039
brand new, I mean not brand new, but like, I

1000
00:55:30.039 --> 00:55:33.440
don't know when the ribbon started, but that wasn't that

1001
00:55:33.559 --> 00:55:36.000
long ago. It's maybe twenty years ago. At most.

1002
00:55:36.800 --> 00:55:39.159
I think it was less than twenty years ago, because

1003
00:55:39.159 --> 00:55:45.000
that would make me twenty and I'm pretty sure I

1004
00:55:45.039 --> 00:55:47.199
don't think it was the entire time I was working

1005
00:55:47.440 --> 00:55:49.400
at a topic or that looked like that.

1006
00:55:50.440 --> 00:55:57.920
Uh uhhh, I found it. Wait what Yeah, never mind,

1007
00:55:58.039 --> 00:55:59.800
that was Gemini failing me yet again.

1008
00:56:00.199 --> 00:56:01.840
See stop looking at it.

1009
00:56:02.119 --> 00:56:04.719
No, we gave me the right info, it just didn't

1010
00:56:04.760 --> 00:56:06.400
read write twenty.

1011
00:56:06.199 --> 00:56:11.159
Thirteen okay, see yeah, yeah.

1012
00:56:10.239 --> 00:56:12.599
That was when it was when it was unveiled. Yeah,

1013
00:56:12.679 --> 00:56:14.679
Joe and I just referred to it as a new design,

1014
00:56:15.880 --> 00:56:18.239
but not a new security feature. Sorry, So that's why.

1015
00:56:18.360 --> 00:56:21.800
But because I remember I worked in retail right when

1016
00:56:21.800 --> 00:56:24.559
those were being introduced, and we would get a lot

1017
00:56:24.599 --> 00:56:26.199
of old hundreds and they'd be like, you have to

1018
00:56:26.199 --> 00:56:28.239
pen test them, you have to pen test them.

1019
00:56:28.800 --> 00:56:31.480
We even pen tested the new hundreds.

1020
00:56:31.800 --> 00:56:35.440
Yeah, testiment ribbons. If you get a chance to watch

1021
00:56:35.480 --> 00:56:38.280
YouTube videos about people who are really good at counterfeiting money,

1022
00:56:38.320 --> 00:56:41.559
it's fascinating how good they got at it. Like they'd

1023
00:56:41.559 --> 00:56:44.639
figure out, like if you take this like chemical compound

1024
00:56:44.679 --> 00:56:47.880
and spray it on the bill, it'll work when the

1025
00:56:48.239 --> 00:56:51.519
marker for like one time, wow, exadly, Like they would

1026
00:56:51.519 --> 00:56:54.039
figure out like weird tricks that would make it kind

1027
00:56:54.039 --> 00:56:56.400
of work for a minute, and they'd like it's just

1028
00:56:56.400 --> 00:56:57.480
long enough. All you have to do is get the

1029
00:56:57.480 --> 00:56:59.400
cashier to put it in the thing and give you change,

1030
00:56:59.400 --> 00:57:01.400
and you're good, right, because.

1031
00:57:01.400 --> 00:57:03.000
Yeah, they're not going to catch it until the bank

1032
00:57:03.039 --> 00:57:03.760
takes it then.

1033
00:57:04.280 --> 00:57:08.880
Exactly. So anyway, the bills, oh yeah, they featured the

1034
00:57:08.920 --> 00:57:13.239
three D security ribbon. Kan and Augustini did said they

1035
00:57:13.280 --> 00:57:16.320
called the police to report their discovery, and the police

1036
00:57:16.320 --> 00:57:18.519
said there was no evidence of a crime.

1037
00:57:19.239 --> 00:57:20.840
Yay.

1038
00:57:20.599 --> 00:57:23.440
You'd think they'd be like, how about we write down

1039
00:57:23.480 --> 00:57:25.400
a couple of them serial numbers?

1040
00:57:25.880 --> 00:57:29.239
Mm hmm. Maybe they were probably like really busy, and

1041
00:57:29.280 --> 00:57:32.400
they were like, listen, I don't care about the safe

1042
00:57:32.400 --> 00:57:35.280
of money that you supposedly found. It's nothing to do

1043
00:57:35.320 --> 00:57:35.679
with us.

1044
00:57:36.320 --> 00:57:39.440
So right, right, you found a bunch of money, good

1045
00:57:39.480 --> 00:57:42.760
for you. They gave it. This is a quote. They

1046
00:57:42.800 --> 00:57:44.679
gave it to us, as I guess you call it

1047
00:57:44.719 --> 00:57:48.880
a finder's keepers thing. Kine said. The New York Police

1048
00:57:48.880 --> 00:57:52.800
Department did not respond to requests for confirmation of Kane's discovery.

1049
00:57:52.920 --> 00:57:56.400
They were just like, we didn't actually do any of that, Okay.

1050
00:57:56.159 --> 00:58:00.000
We never spoke to anyone. Kane said, he and Augustine

1051
00:58:00.119 --> 00:58:02.599
you plan to take their soggy money to the Bureau

1052
00:58:02.679 --> 00:58:05.239
of Engraving and Printing in Washington to redeem it.

1053
00:58:05.760 --> 00:58:06.760
Hmm.

1054
00:58:06.840 --> 00:58:09.679
That makes sense, because the bills are not really spendable anymore.

1055
00:58:09.880 --> 00:58:11.719
It would be shitty to put them into the well,

1056
00:58:11.719 --> 00:58:14.039
it'd be shitty to put them into circulation because they're

1057
00:58:14.079 --> 00:58:16.000
gonna they're all worn out from soaking in water.

1058
00:58:16.039 --> 00:58:19.280
Who cares? Just just do it. No, one's not gonna

1059
00:58:19.320 --> 00:58:19.599
take it.

1060
00:58:21.000 --> 00:58:23.599
According to this it says some portion of the bills

1061
00:58:23.639 --> 00:58:26.159
will likely be too damage to recover.

1062
00:58:26.519 --> 00:58:27.519
Okay, fine.

1063
00:58:28.000 --> 00:58:30.519
The pair have ideas for spending whatever they end up with,

1064
00:58:30.639 --> 00:58:33.480
including a new vehicle and upgrades to the equipment they

1065
00:58:33.559 --> 00:58:38.920
use to produce content. Hmmm, okay, I mean just like

1066
00:58:38.960 --> 00:58:40.960
six grand, You'll have all the content shit you need.

1067
00:58:41.000 --> 00:58:43.920
You're good, YEA six grand will do it. Kane is

1068
00:58:43.920 --> 00:58:46.079
far from the only magnet fisher who has made a

1069
00:58:46.119 --> 00:58:49.159
mark in recent years. All it takes is a powerful magnet,

1070
00:58:49.239 --> 00:58:52.320
a body of water, and a rope a magnet fisher.

1071
00:58:52.639 --> 00:58:54.440
Oh you're gonna like this? Oh god, Oh my god?

1072
00:58:54.440 --> 00:58:56.400
What what? What?

1073
00:58:56.400 --> 00:58:59.920
What? How did I not see this article or this story.

1074
00:59:00.079 --> 00:59:03.840
A magnet fisher found a human skull padlocked to an

1075
00:59:03.880 --> 00:59:06.519
exercise dumbbell in New Orleans last month.

1076
00:59:06.480 --> 00:59:07.199
Oh my god.

1077
00:59:09.320 --> 00:59:11.639
And someone fishing in a creek in Georgia and April

1078
00:59:11.679 --> 00:59:14.079
pulled up a rifle and some belongings of a couple

1079
00:59:14.280 --> 00:59:16.639
who were murdered nine years ago.

1080
00:59:17.079 --> 00:59:19.800
Cool, let's do this, dude.

1081
00:59:20.039 --> 00:59:21.480
You want to go to the school with me?

1082
00:59:21.599 --> 00:59:25.440
And just like, yeah, many bodies we'd.

1083
00:59:25.360 --> 00:59:28.559
Find, Oh my gosh, how many metal bodies they would.

1084
00:59:28.360 --> 00:59:31.599
Have to Yeah, well maybe they have like like metal

1085
00:59:31.639 --> 00:59:34.280
plates in their heads. They I'm sure that those don't

1086
00:59:34.519 --> 00:59:36.719
aren't magnetic, because there would be problems.

1087
00:59:36.719 --> 00:59:40.880
But still, yeah, as magnet fishing videos rack up views

1088
00:59:40.880 --> 00:59:43.079
on YouTube, man, that's something I haven't even wasted my

1089
00:59:43.119 --> 00:59:47.840
life watching yet. That's so I'm gonna fishing. Skeptics grumble

1090
00:59:47.880 --> 00:59:50.519
on Reddit that some of the finds must be fake.

1091
00:59:51.880 --> 00:59:56.039
Caine may just be lucky. He's hauled up bicycles, guns, grenades,

1092
00:59:56.519 --> 00:59:59.920
and jewelry from New York City waterways, promoting his ex

1093
01:00:00.000 --> 01:00:05.079
exploits on YouTube, TikTok and Instagram. Quote. I have seen

1094
01:00:05.159 --> 01:00:07.400
and worked with other magnet fishers that can hit a

1095
01:00:07.480 --> 01:00:10.000
spot for three months, and I'll come along and throw

1096
01:00:10.039 --> 01:00:12.239
the same magnet and get and find something that they've

1097
01:00:12.280 --> 01:00:15.079
been trying to get the entire time, he said, I

1098
01:00:15.199 --> 01:00:17.599
personally can't explain it.

1099
01:00:17.679 --> 01:00:18.760
Maybe his magnet is.

1100
01:00:18.719 --> 01:00:23.960
Better I maybe, or maybe it's just plain skill, girl,

1101
01:00:25.079 --> 01:00:28.320
just plain skill. I can't believe I never saw this

1102
01:00:28.360 --> 01:00:34.280
thing about a human skull padlock to a dumbbell. Yeah, yeah,

1103
01:00:34.199 --> 01:00:37.119
when would did that even happen? It happened this year?

1104
01:00:37.119 --> 01:00:39.920
How did I not find it? A fifteen pounds dumbell

1105
01:00:40.000 --> 01:00:43.000
was padlocked to a skull which was fully decomposed, lacking

1106
01:00:43.000 --> 01:00:44.519
a jaw or top row of teeth.

1107
01:00:45.039 --> 01:00:45.400
Wow.

1108
01:00:47.360 --> 01:00:50.239
Wow, the article is barely anything considering like a person's dead.

1109
01:00:50.480 --> 01:00:52.719
Oh well, New Orleans, what do you want? Yeah? I

1110
01:00:52.760 --> 01:00:55.559
have all the time. All right, Well, let's go from

1111
01:00:55.679 --> 01:00:58.880
well before we get to that. Uh So, my thought

1112
01:00:59.000 --> 01:01:05.159
was hurricane could have caused the safe criminals, I mean,

1113
01:01:05.280 --> 01:01:08.039
theft obviously would make a lot of sense.

1114
01:01:08.639 --> 01:01:11.320
Yeah, somebody trying to hide a crime.

1115
01:01:12.039 --> 01:01:15.639
You know, or dumping a safe out of frustration for

1116
01:01:15.719 --> 01:01:18.719
being unable to open it. Because let's be real, if

1117
01:01:18.760 --> 01:01:21.000
you're so stupid that you can't realize you can't open

1118
01:01:21.000 --> 01:01:22.519
a safe, maybe you're so stupid you throw it in

1119
01:01:22.559 --> 01:01:22.880
a river.

1120
01:01:23.880 --> 01:01:28.519
No no, no, no, because then you can't ever have

1121
01:01:28.599 --> 01:01:29.280
what's inside.

1122
01:01:29.639 --> 01:01:33.079
You could, neither could anyone else except YouTubers.

1123
01:01:33.320 --> 01:01:34.079
Yeah exactly.

1124
01:01:37.960 --> 01:01:40.239
I don't know. Part of me thinks it's fake.

1125
01:01:41.599 --> 01:01:44.119
I mean maybe or what if it's like some person

1126
01:01:44.280 --> 01:01:47.440
who was trying to do make like a treasure hunt.

1127
01:01:47.679 --> 01:01:49.519
They were going to like make this because you know,

1128
01:01:49.559 --> 01:01:52.000
they're like, there are like dudes who are like, you know,

1129
01:01:52.119 --> 01:01:55.719
make treasure hunts. So maybe he was making one. Don't

1130
01:01:55.760 --> 01:01:56.440
say it like that.

1131
01:01:56.559 --> 01:01:59.760
There totally are one thousand dollars prize.

1132
01:02:00.159 --> 01:02:07.239
Yeah, maybe he was some rich guy shell and that

1133
01:02:07.400 --> 01:02:09.000
was the big prize at the end.

1134
01:02:10.840 --> 01:02:17.039
I don't know, man, that would be airplane. But that

1135
01:02:17.239 --> 01:02:19.000
body of water, well, but it could have landed in

1136
01:02:19.000 --> 01:02:22.880
a bigger body of water and wound up there. Okay,

1137
01:02:24.360 --> 01:02:25.360
I could see that one.

1138
01:02:25.639 --> 01:02:27.400
Maybe dolphins carried it there.

1139
01:02:27.760 --> 01:02:32.519
Hey. Ever tell you about a friend who when he

1140
01:02:32.559 --> 01:02:35.760
was younger, he had family members in the mafia in

1141
01:02:35.800 --> 01:02:39.079
New York and they used to produce movies and they

1142
01:02:39.079 --> 01:02:42.079
would give him money when a movie when they was

1143
01:02:42.119 --> 01:02:44.519
timed to cash in the insurance policy and a movie,

1144
01:02:44.800 --> 01:02:46.800
he would give him money to go to the lab

1145
01:02:46.840 --> 01:02:48.719
film lab in the middle of the night because they

1146
01:02:48.760 --> 01:02:50.960
would be open twenty four hours back then and just

1147
01:02:51.000 --> 01:02:52.599
take a reel of the movie and walk across the

1148
01:02:52.599 --> 01:02:55.960
street and just drop it in the Hudson because then

1149
01:02:56.000 --> 01:02:58.760
it would it was insured. So they get their money back. Wow,

1150
01:02:59.199 --> 01:03:01.840
because then like, where's the other reel of my movie?

1151
01:03:03.000 --> 01:03:05.639
They're like, oh, no, I guess it's it's lost or damage.

1152
01:03:05.719 --> 01:03:10.480
So here's the paperwork for your insurance policy. And we

1153
01:03:10.559 --> 01:03:15.079
wonder why insurance is so expensive now, wow, because people

1154
01:03:15.519 --> 01:03:18.519
like the fraud was so outrageous. Like you ever read

1155
01:03:18.519 --> 01:03:20.960
those old mob those books, like from old mobsters from

1156
01:03:21.000 --> 01:03:23.800
like the sixties and seventies. They were just constantly torching businesses.

1157
01:03:24.320 --> 01:03:30.400
Boy fire sure our comment at businesses huh yeah, cop businesses, restaurants,

1158
01:03:30.440 --> 01:03:36.559
they all just they're very flammable occupations, I suppose, huh.

1159
01:03:36.840 --> 01:03:41.639
I wonder what happened there. Uh, I don't know, But

1160
01:03:41.880 --> 01:03:45.320
all I know is I would be very nervous about

1161
01:03:45.480 --> 01:03:47.559
getting a big sack of money I didn't know where

1162
01:03:47.559 --> 01:03:49.880
it came from, and I'd be even more nervous about

1163
01:03:49.880 --> 01:03:53.239
news stories being written about it and where it was found.

1164
01:03:53.840 --> 01:03:59.840
Yeah, yeah, it's probably fine. The police said it was fine.

1165
01:04:00.000 --> 01:04:00.760
It's probably fine.

1166
01:04:00.920 --> 01:04:03.519
Except then the police didn't confirm they said it was fine.

1167
01:04:03.719 --> 01:04:05.960
They didn't confirm that they'd spoken to them.

1168
01:04:06.480 --> 01:04:08.840
That's because they were probably not supposed to say that.

1169
01:04:09.079 --> 01:04:13.760
And someone was just there and like it, like like hungover,

1170
01:04:13.800 --> 01:04:16.000
and they're like, I don't know, man, just whatever you

1171
01:04:16.039 --> 01:04:17.840
want with it, it's fine to me.

1172
01:04:17.920 --> 01:04:21.400
It sounds like clout. It sounds like this is all clout,

1173
01:04:21.719 --> 01:04:23.960
Like they just want people to like subscribe to their

1174
01:04:23.960 --> 01:04:24.760
YouTube channel.

1175
01:04:25.559 --> 01:04:29.199
It's possible, but it's not like people don't find cool things.

1176
01:04:29.519 --> 01:04:33.000
So I don't think I even said though, that like

1177
01:04:33.199 --> 01:04:35.599
somehow he always finds the coolest things, no matter how

1178
01:04:35.639 --> 01:04:38.440
many other people are around. And I'm like, that's pretty

1179
01:04:38.679 --> 01:04:40.719
ballsy to say.

1180
01:04:40.840 --> 01:04:45.920
Well, hopefully if he was actually just making it up,

1181
01:04:45.960 --> 01:04:52.239
he wouldn't be stupid enough to say stuff like that. Though.

1182
01:04:52.800 --> 01:04:55.079
I don't know. I've met some dummies in my day.

1183
01:04:56.000 --> 01:04:59.000
But well, we're gonna take a quick break and we'll

1184
01:04:59.039 --> 01:05:03.159
be back with some more booky news and hopefully a

1185
01:05:03.159 --> 01:05:14.719
big box of money would be nice after this. All right,

1186
01:05:14.760 --> 01:05:19.760
we're back at Mirror dot co dot uk. Baby. The

1187
01:05:19.800 --> 01:05:23.719
headline is quote, I died on operating table. When I

1188
01:05:23.800 --> 01:05:31.760
woke again, I saw something impossible. Oh what, Well, I

1189
01:05:31.760 --> 01:05:33.400
guess we could find out if you want, or you

1190
01:05:33.440 --> 01:05:34.360
could skip the article.

1191
01:05:34.480 --> 01:05:36.239
You mean to skip it, It's fine, okay.

1192
01:05:37.840 --> 01:05:40.320
A woman who was put into a near death during

1193
01:05:40.360 --> 01:05:44.639
brain surgery, uh says wow? A woman who A woman?

1194
01:05:45.039 --> 01:05:47.559
A woman who was put into a near death during

1195
01:05:47.760 --> 01:05:52.320
brain surgery. She floated above. This is the get a

1196
01:05:52.320 --> 01:05:57.880
copy editor Mirror dot co dot UK. A woman who

1197
01:05:57.960 --> 01:06:02.079
was put into a near death during brain surgery I'm assuming,

1198
01:06:02.400 --> 01:06:07.039
said she floated above a doctor's shoulder and witnessed details

1199
01:06:07.079 --> 01:06:11.199
she shouldn't have been able to see.

1200
01:06:11.920 --> 01:06:15.559
I think that that's like when you dissociate. I think

1201
01:06:15.599 --> 01:06:16.320
that can happen.

1202
01:06:17.199 --> 01:06:21.159
It very well could. Yeah. The case of Pam Reynold's

1203
01:06:21.559 --> 01:06:25.440
lowery is one of the most well documented and significant

1204
01:06:25.480 --> 01:06:30.239
near death experience accounts on record. Podcaster Christina Randall, who

1205
01:06:30.280 --> 01:06:34.320
has extensively researched the case, explains that Pam had been

1206
01:06:34.360 --> 01:06:38.760
experiencing symptoms of dizziness, temporary loss of speech, and bouts

1207
01:06:38.800 --> 01:06:43.480
of paralysis. A scan revealed that she had a large

1208
01:06:43.519 --> 01:06:51.559
anneurism close to her brainstem. Because of the aneurism's location,

1209
01:06:51.800 --> 01:06:56.519
surgery to repair it would be extremely risky, Christina said quote.

1210
01:06:56.679 --> 01:06:59.760
As a last resort, a neurosurgeon of the Barow Neurological

1211
01:06:59.760 --> 01:07:04.199
Institute in Phoenix, Arizona, decided that a rarely performed procedure

1212
01:07:04.280 --> 01:07:09.679
called a stand still operation could improve Pam's chances of surviving.

1213
01:07:12.679 --> 01:07:16.960
A standstill operation effectively reduces the patient's vital signs to

1214
01:07:17.079 --> 01:07:24.119
a near death state. Okay, Christina explained, quote, Pam's body

1215
01:07:24.159 --> 01:07:28.559
temperature was lowered to fifty degrees fahrenheit or ten degrees centigrade,

1216
01:07:28.679 --> 01:07:32.440
her breathing and her heartbeat completely stopped, and the blood

1217
01:07:32.599 --> 01:07:34.880
was completely drained from her head.

1218
01:07:35.639 --> 01:07:37.000
That's fine.

1219
01:07:37.280 --> 01:07:39.440
I wonder how long you can do that before you

1220
01:07:39.599 --> 01:07:40.280
stay dead.

1221
01:07:40.840 --> 01:07:43.119
I don't hard.

1222
01:07:44.000 --> 01:07:45.000
It seems kind of weird.

1223
01:07:45.360 --> 01:07:46.639
I don't think you have very long.

1224
01:07:47.440 --> 01:07:51.039
Can't be very long. But despite this, oh sorry, As

1225
01:07:51.079 --> 01:07:54.559
a matter of routine, Pam's eyes were taped shut and

1226
01:07:54.599 --> 01:07:57.960
a headset that played a series of loud clocking sounds

1227
01:07:58.280 --> 01:07:59.719
was placed over her ears.

1228
01:08:00.239 --> 01:08:03.760
So okay, so yeah, yeah, it is she like not

1229
01:08:03.880 --> 01:08:06.519
anesthetized during this, Like what's happening? Because I know that

1230
01:08:07.000 --> 01:08:10.320
I'm pretty sure during aneste do they do put tafe

1231
01:08:10.320 --> 01:08:13.880
over your eyes? That's what Reddit told me one time.

1232
01:08:16.000 --> 01:08:19.840
I mean, they couldn't be lying. So yeah, the sounds,

1233
01:08:19.840 --> 01:08:23.800
which would have been intensely annoying if Pam had been conscious.

1234
01:08:23.960 --> 01:08:24.680
Okay, there we go.

1235
01:08:25.239 --> 01:08:31.159
Enabled the anesthetist. The anesthetist. It's the thh in there

1236
01:08:31.199 --> 01:08:36.560
that throws anesthetist to confine to confine that they're confined

1237
01:08:37.720 --> 01:08:40.880
that there was no activity in the patient's brain. I

1238
01:08:40.880 --> 01:08:42.600
think they can conffirm.

1239
01:08:43.039 --> 01:08:45.079
Yeah.

1240
01:08:45.119 --> 01:08:49.000
But despite this, Pam reported a series of incredible experiences

1241
01:08:49.039 --> 01:08:53.119
while she was technically dead. Pam, who was a music

1242
01:08:53.840 --> 01:08:56.520
why is it? Why is that in the past? Tense

1243
01:08:57.800 --> 01:09:01.000
who was a musician. It turns out the aneurysm was

1244
01:09:01.000 --> 01:09:04.640
caused by playing guitar, So no more. Pam, who was

1245
01:09:04.680 --> 01:09:09.760
a musician, identified a continuous tone corresponding to the note.

1246
01:09:09.880 --> 01:09:13.359
D huh, I can't do that.

1247
01:09:14.359 --> 01:09:17.920
This sound somehow lifted her consciousness out of her body.

1248
01:09:18.760 --> 01:09:22.960
Christina recalled quote. Pam said during this she felt more

1249
01:09:23.000 --> 01:09:25.880
aware than normal, and her vision was more focused and

1250
01:09:26.000 --> 01:09:29.960
clearer than normal. Her senses became so hyper aware it

1251
01:09:30.039 --> 01:09:32.359
was as if she had more than five senses.

1252
01:09:34.039 --> 01:09:36.479
Well, you do have probably more than five senses.

1253
01:09:36.880 --> 01:09:38.279
I thought we only had five senses.

1254
01:09:38.560 --> 01:09:39.079
I don't know.

1255
01:09:39.359 --> 01:09:43.079
With the sixth sense being the ability to know that

1256
01:09:43.680 --> 01:09:50.199
Bruce Willis is actually dead. Yeah, yeah, with his unnaturally

1257
01:09:50.479 --> 01:09:54.720
With this unnaturally clear perception, Pam watched as the surgeons

1258
01:09:54.800 --> 01:09:58.800
drilled through her skull to reach the aneurism quote. She

1259
01:09:58.920 --> 01:10:01.199
was able to see the elect saw that was pulled

1260
01:10:01.239 --> 01:10:03.920
out to use on her, and she described it as

1261
01:10:03.960 --> 01:10:10.760
looking like an electric toothbrush. Christina went on, I mean

1262
01:10:10.760 --> 01:10:13.000
I would imagine what else would look like, I mean really.

1263
01:10:12.800 --> 01:10:15.760
Yeah, like like a little drummer. Basically. Yeah.

1264
01:10:15.800 --> 01:10:18.439
There was a number of telling details that led experts

1265
01:10:18.439 --> 01:10:21.119
to believe that Pam had somehow witnessed the dramatic life

1266
01:10:21.159 --> 01:10:24.239
saving procedure from outside her own body. In an interview,

1267
01:10:24.279 --> 01:10:27.199
Pam recalled quote, I was looking down at the body.

1268
01:10:27.239 --> 01:10:29.239
I knew it was my body, but I didn't care.

1269
01:10:29.600 --> 01:10:32.439
My vantage point was sort of sitting on the doctor's shoulder,

1270
01:10:33.119 --> 01:10:36.079
all like a little like Angel and the Devil. Yeah,

1271
01:10:36.119 --> 01:10:39.199
and like help her aneurysm. I was like, kill her.

1272
01:10:40.359 --> 01:10:42.399
I remember the instrument in his hand and it looked

1273
01:10:42.439 --> 01:10:48.479
like the handle of my electric toothbrush. Oh. Unfortunately Pam

1274
01:10:48.520 --> 01:10:51.479
passed away in twenty ten, so this is like, oh,

1275
01:10:51.520 --> 01:10:56.439
they're bringing this up in a new way. Oh. She

1276
01:10:56.560 --> 01:10:59.239
added quote, I had assumed that they were going to

1277
01:10:59.279 --> 01:11:01.640
open the skull with a saw. I had heard the

1278
01:11:01.720 --> 01:11:04.399
term saw, but what I saw looked a lot more

1279
01:11:04.479 --> 01:11:08.399
like a drill than a saw. He even had little

1280
01:11:08.399 --> 01:11:11.239
bits that were kept in this case that looked like

1281
01:11:11.279 --> 01:11:14.239
the case that my father stored his socket wrenches in

1282
01:11:14.279 --> 01:11:15.239
when I was a child.

1283
01:11:16.279 --> 01:11:18.600
Yeah, so it's like a dremal basically.

1284
01:11:18.199 --> 01:11:23.479
Yeah, yeah, that's dremll. Pam even remembered details of discussions

1285
01:11:23.520 --> 01:11:26.319
that the doctor and doctors and nurses had while they

1286
01:11:26.359 --> 01:11:30.039
were operating on her. But as she calmly observed the operation,

1287
01:11:30.199 --> 01:11:33.039
she became aware that she was not alone.

1288
01:11:33.880 --> 01:11:37.199
Because she was in the room with the doctors.

1289
01:11:36.560 --> 01:11:41.680
Or Christina said quote. When she tried making out the figures,

1290
01:11:41.680 --> 01:11:44.600
she realized that it was her grandmother and uncle and

1291
01:11:44.720 --> 01:11:50.119
other deceased people that she knew. Hum, you'd think they

1292
01:11:50.159 --> 01:11:52.520
have something better to do than watch her get brain surgery.

1293
01:11:52.520 --> 01:11:55.479
But really, I think that's kind of a big deal

1294
01:11:55.560 --> 01:11:57.000
watching someone get brain surgery.

1295
01:11:57.399 --> 01:11:59.399
I would just be like, Eh, if she dies, I'll

1296
01:11:59.439 --> 01:12:01.640
know when she hes a neighbor that would be That

1297
01:12:01.680 --> 01:12:07.239
would have been me watching watching TV in the after life.

1298
01:12:08.680 --> 01:12:11.680
In particular, Pam said, her late uncle, who had died

1299
01:12:11.720 --> 01:12:14.079
when he was only thirty nine, I don't like that

1300
01:12:14.159 --> 01:12:17.319
I'm thirty eight, seemed to be taking part of a guide.

1301
01:12:18.439 --> 01:12:21.479
Taking the part of a guide, She went on, quote,

1302
01:12:21.479 --> 01:12:23.680
my uncle was the one who brought me back down

1303
01:12:23.720 --> 01:12:25.920
to the body. But then I got to where the

1304
01:12:25.920 --> 01:12:28.279
body was and I looked at the thing, and I

1305
01:12:28.399 --> 01:12:31.319
for sure did not want to get in. You.

1306
01:12:31.800 --> 01:12:33.680
Yeah, I mean I could see that, like I gotta

1307
01:12:33.720 --> 01:12:34.439
go back in there.

1308
01:12:34.960 --> 01:12:37.840
That's okay, highly disagree. When I look at my own

1309
01:12:37.840 --> 01:12:40.159
body and photos and in the mirror, I think I

1310
01:12:40.199 --> 01:12:41.239
look very cozy.

1311
01:12:42.039 --> 01:12:45.319
Okay, I mean I could see that, Thank you.

1312
01:12:46.159 --> 01:12:49.640
Pam said her body looked lifeless and she was reluctant

1313
01:12:49.680 --> 01:12:52.479
to go back into it. She went on, quote, I

1314
01:12:52.520 --> 01:12:55.000
didn't want to get in, but he kept reasoning with me,

1315
01:12:55.640 --> 01:12:58.880
he said, quote a double quote. I guess it's like

1316
01:12:59.000 --> 01:13:02.159
diving into a swimming Just jump in, he pushed me.

1317
01:13:02.479 --> 01:13:06.840
He gave me a little help there. After a grueling

1318
01:13:06.960 --> 01:13:10.680
seven hour procedure, Pam was wheeled into recovery. As soon

1319
01:13:10.720 --> 01:13:13.760
as she came to, she stunned doctors with her recollections

1320
01:13:13.800 --> 01:13:18.039
of what had happened while she was technically dead. Some

1321
01:13:18.079 --> 01:13:21.560
skeptics have attempted to debunk Pam's story, suggesting it might

1322
01:13:21.600 --> 01:13:25.199
be a case of anesthesia awareness, a condition where patients

1323
01:13:25.199 --> 01:13:29.039
can recall details of surgery despite being under general anesthetic,

1324
01:13:29.680 --> 01:13:32.399
but in this case, Pam's eyes had been taped shut,

1325
01:13:32.520 --> 01:13:34.680
and her hearing would have been blocked by the loud

1326
01:13:34.720 --> 01:13:40.760
audio clicks coming from her headphones. Cardiologist Michael Sambaum. Sabam

1327
01:13:41.439 --> 01:13:44.840
is convinced that Pam's case is genuine, though he and

1328
01:13:44.920 --> 01:13:48.640
he's identified over a hundred instances of an esthetized or

1329
01:13:48.680 --> 01:13:52.399
seriously injured people having an experience that hints at some

1330
01:13:52.560 --> 01:13:54.640
sort of life after death.

1331
01:13:55.319 --> 01:13:57.960
I mean, I mean, it could just be that people

1332
01:13:57.960 --> 01:14:00.880
can astral project. It doesn't have to be life after death.

1333
01:14:01.359 --> 01:14:03.239
Well, I know that they've done an immense amount of

1334
01:14:03.279 --> 01:14:07.039
story era of studies about how people whose brains are

1335
01:14:07.239 --> 01:14:14.239
deprived blood and oxygen have wild hallucinations, including leaving your

1336
01:14:14.279 --> 01:14:14.800
own body.

1337
01:14:15.680 --> 01:14:19.199
Well, yeah, and like I said about dissociation, that could

1338
01:14:19.279 --> 01:14:23.640
be like that too. But like, it doesn't explain if

1339
01:14:23.680 --> 01:14:26.319
she was right about the details that being said, it's

1340
01:14:26.359 --> 01:14:31.359
not impossible that she couldn't have kind of imagined something similar.

1341
01:14:31.640 --> 01:14:33.439
Well, and I'm going to take another I'm going to

1342
01:14:33.479 --> 01:14:37.039
take another bit attacked with this. It's not like these

1343
01:14:37.159 --> 01:14:41.359
doctors are so interesting that what they said couldn't be guessed.

1344
01:14:43.760 --> 01:14:49.680
Talking about does work? Talking about stuff anybody talk about

1345
01:14:49.800 --> 01:14:52.119
it's easy to accidentally guess it.

1346
01:14:53.399 --> 01:14:53.880
No, it's not.

1347
01:14:54.840 --> 01:14:57.520
I think it is. I mean, what the what do

1348
01:14:57.600 --> 01:15:00.560
they say? Like doctor, doctor, that's what they say, like

1349
01:15:00.600 --> 01:15:03.079
the entire the entire surgery doctors. Doctor.

1350
01:15:03.199 --> 01:15:05.239
They like listen to music and they talk about their

1351
01:15:05.279 --> 01:15:08.680
lives and stuff, and they say like suction. Yeah, but

1352
01:15:08.760 --> 01:15:12.600
mostly they're talking about their lives and a hot date

1353
01:15:12.640 --> 01:15:13.119
they went on.

1354
01:15:13.960 --> 01:15:16.920
Yeah, yeah, that sounds fun.

1355
01:15:17.680 --> 01:15:19.039
It's not a bad not a bad job.

1356
01:15:19.479 --> 01:15:21.279
We're going to take a break. I have one more

1357
01:15:21.279 --> 01:15:23.600
weekly or one more spooky news I want to get

1358
01:15:23.640 --> 01:15:26.199
to because it is Christmasy, and then we're going to

1359
01:15:26.279 --> 01:15:36.079
get to our topic right after this. All right, we're

1360
01:15:36.119 --> 01:15:39.239
back with one more little bit of spooky news because

1361
01:15:39.239 --> 01:15:44.439
I wanted to end festively. Yeah, I'm looking forward to

1362
01:15:44.439 --> 01:15:47.119
this one. So we're heading back to the Huffington Post,

1363
01:15:47.359 --> 01:15:51.640
where the headline reads, owl strikes perfect pose on Christmas

1364
01:15:51.640 --> 01:15:53.439
tree after flying down chimney.

1365
01:15:53.800 --> 01:15:58.399
I saw this, Yeah, yeah, I love this.

1366
01:15:59.119 --> 01:16:03.319
Oh no, but the first line is oh, owy night.

1367
01:16:04.199 --> 01:16:08.479
I hate them.

1368
01:16:08.720 --> 01:16:12.840
A Virginia family had an unexpected holiday visitor recently when

1369
01:16:12.880 --> 01:16:16.039
an owl flew down their chimney and promptly found a

1370
01:16:16.079 --> 01:16:21.359
picturesque place to rest. Quote, this beautiful barred owl decided

1371
01:16:21.359 --> 01:16:24.800
to play Santa and drop in literally through the chimney

1372
01:16:24.800 --> 01:16:28.000
of a local home and declared himself the newest star

1373
01:16:28.159 --> 01:16:31.399
on top of their Christmas tree, The Animal Welfare League

1374
01:16:31.399 --> 01:16:35.880
of Arlington wrote Thursday on a social media post, adding

1375
01:16:35.920 --> 01:16:38.720
that the feathered guest had knocked the old star over

1376
01:16:38.880 --> 01:16:42.760
to make room for himself on the tree. The picture

1377
01:16:42.840 --> 01:16:46.600
is amazing. It's just an owl sitting like a wild owl,

1378
01:16:46.680 --> 01:16:50.520
just sitting on top of a nicely decorated Christmas tree.

1379
01:16:50.800 --> 01:16:52.720
Yeah, I mean, I have a lot to say about this,

1380
01:16:52.920 --> 01:16:59.479
but oh yeah, well yeah, because owls can't fly into chimneys.

1381
01:16:59.520 --> 01:17:02.760
If you have a rain cap on your chimney, you

1382
01:17:02.760 --> 01:17:05.600
should have a rain cap on your chimney because if

1383
01:17:05.600 --> 01:17:10.000
you don't, owls and other animals and rain will get

1384
01:17:10.039 --> 01:17:15.520
in there and it will deteriorate your flu and destroy

1385
01:17:15.600 --> 01:17:19.079
your chimney and then you'll dive of carbon monoxide poison it.

1386
01:17:19.920 --> 01:17:24.880
Post a lot of weird reddits because yeah, well okay,

1387
01:17:24.880 --> 01:17:27.319
I'll see your point and add this. Then, how Santa

1388
01:17:27.359 --> 01:17:28.279
is supposed to get in?

1389
01:17:28.840 --> 01:17:32.000
He has tools we have to like we just to

1390
01:17:32.039 --> 01:17:36.199
like take them off the rain caps. He can't really

1391
01:17:36.239 --> 01:17:38.960
get in. I don't want Santas to get in anyone's

1392
01:17:38.960 --> 01:17:41.800
house anymore anymore. No more.

1393
01:17:42.479 --> 01:17:46.560
Oh, you just want the world to burn basically. Yeah.

1394
01:17:47.079 --> 01:17:51.239
The nonprofit, which provides animal services in Arlington County shared

1395
01:17:51.279 --> 01:17:53.279
two photos of the owl on the tree, as well

1396
01:17:53.279 --> 01:17:56.000
as a video showing the bird of prey flying around

1397
01:17:56.039 --> 01:17:58.520
the room as children in the home laugh. Yeah. Those

1398
01:17:58.600 --> 01:18:00.479
kids do not know enough about owls. I would not

1399
01:18:00.520 --> 01:18:02.880
think that's funny. I was violent.

1400
01:18:03.359 --> 01:18:04.319
They're not gonna hurt you.

1401
01:18:07.239 --> 01:18:08.680
Yeah, okay, Hey, I think the.

1402
01:18:08.680 --> 01:18:10.359
Owl is just going to swoop down and attack you.

1403
01:18:10.800 --> 01:18:13.800
Yes, why if it feels threatened. I mean, it's not

1404
01:18:13.800 --> 01:18:14.720
going to just do it for no.

1405
01:18:14.680 --> 01:18:16.960
Reason exactly, So it's on to threaten it.

1406
01:18:18.560 --> 01:18:20.119
Oh so now it's my fault, okay.

1407
01:18:20.239 --> 01:18:21.920
Yeah.

1408
01:18:22.000 --> 01:18:25.199
The video also shows the owl flying free outside after

1409
01:18:25.239 --> 01:18:28.600
being caught in a net by animal control Sergeant Spencer Murray.

1410
01:18:28.880 --> 01:18:30.119
She just gonna fall back in.

1411
01:18:30.560 --> 01:18:32.920
Yeah, that's what it is. Once they get a taste for,

1412
01:18:33.520 --> 01:18:36.640
you know, the warmth in there and like apple cider

1413
01:18:36.760 --> 01:18:39.680
or something, and they're like, I can't go back. Following

1414
01:18:39.720 --> 01:18:43.479
the stint inside, the owl was quote uninjured uninjured and

1415
01:18:43.520 --> 01:18:47.680
totally healthy. Chelsea's Jones, a spokesperson for the organization, told

1416
01:18:47.720 --> 01:18:51.680
Hugh Post via Facebook. She added that the nonprofit is

1417
01:18:51.760 --> 01:18:54.760
so grateful to the family for staying calm and allowing

1418
01:18:54.800 --> 01:18:57.000
our sergeant to safely remove the owl.

1419
01:18:57.479 --> 01:18:57.640
Uh.

1420
01:18:59.520 --> 01:19:01.800
I guess no, he got like a good rifle for Christmas,

1421
01:19:01.920 --> 01:19:03.600
or they would have been like, hold on, I got this.

1422
01:19:04.119 --> 01:19:07.680
You can't shoot things.

1423
01:19:08.720 --> 01:19:09.479
In your own home.

1424
01:19:09.840 --> 01:19:10.680
In your own home.

1425
01:19:11.159 --> 01:19:19.199
Yeah, Uh, I think you're wrong. Oh, I think you're wrong.

1426
01:19:21.119 --> 01:19:23.760
The Animal Welfare League of Arlington noted that the incident

1427
01:19:23.840 --> 01:19:26.479
is quote a great reminder to keep your chimneys capped

1428
01:19:26.560 --> 01:19:30.560
this season, curious critters from coming to visit.

1429
01:19:31.159 --> 01:19:31.760
There we go.

1430
01:19:32.159 --> 01:19:33.000
Do you feel seen?

1431
01:19:33.239 --> 01:19:34.439
I feel vindicated?

1432
01:19:34.960 --> 01:19:37.520
Good. Good. You deserve that after all you've been through.

1433
01:19:37.560 --> 01:19:40.319
You you earned that. Great. I did not just make

1434
01:19:40.359 --> 01:19:42.279
that part up. That is in the article.

1435
01:19:42.479 --> 01:19:44.119
Now, I don't believe you.

1436
01:19:44.159 --> 01:19:47.359
No, it's in the It's in the article. The photo

1437
01:19:47.399 --> 01:19:51.119
and video footage prompted thousands of social media comments, most

1438
01:19:51.159 --> 01:19:55.000
of them delighted. Quote, it's been such a wonderful experience

1439
01:19:55.000 --> 01:20:00.000
seeing the joy this has brought people. Joan said, Oh,

1440
01:20:00.079 --> 01:20:04.479
and there are thirty four comments. Wow, they're really good.

1441
01:20:05.319 --> 01:20:07.640
Number one comment, Now that's a tree topper.

1442
01:20:10.079 --> 01:20:11.960
Yeah, yeah it is.

1443
01:20:15.039 --> 01:20:24.800
That was when I sorted it by best Wow. Sorry

1444
01:20:24.840 --> 01:20:28.000
it's not this. It's not New Year's yet. I can

1445
01:20:28.039 --> 01:20:33.880
still read comments. And then one comment was a musical

1446
01:20:33.880 --> 01:20:36.239
notes that it said owl I want for Christmas is

1447
01:20:36.239 --> 01:20:40.439
a bird on my tree. So I guess I'm supposed

1448
01:20:40.439 --> 01:20:46.039
to sing that. Okay, a good ending for a true

1449
01:20:46.079 --> 01:20:47.520
story at Christmas.

1450
01:20:48.119 --> 01:20:50.560
People who comment on news articles are weird.

1451
01:20:52.079 --> 01:20:54.399
Some of these have got to be bots, right, I hope.

1452
01:20:54.439 --> 01:20:59.159
So somebody said better than a cat to keep mice away?

1453
01:20:59.359 --> 01:20:59.960
That's true.

1454
01:21:00.319 --> 01:21:00.600
Hmmm.

1455
01:21:01.399 --> 01:21:04.720
Did you dissect owl pellets when you were a kid. Yeah, yeah,

1456
01:21:04.760 --> 01:21:06.840
that's why I'm afraid of owls. I've got a healthy

1457
01:21:06.960 --> 01:21:07.960
fear of owls.

1458
01:21:08.159 --> 01:21:11.479
I think they're cool because they throw up phones in fur.

1459
01:21:12.680 --> 01:21:14.880
Wait. I thought you didn't like throwing up, and now

1460
01:21:14.920 --> 01:21:18.359
you think throwing up is cool. No, it's different so much.

1461
01:21:18.479 --> 01:21:20.920
It's different because it's not like they're sick. That's the

1462
01:21:21.039 --> 01:21:23.000
function of their digestive system.

1463
01:21:23.520 --> 01:21:26.600
That's the function of yours. Two occasions, No on rare,

1464
01:21:28.000 --> 01:21:36.399
So you're scaring me, please stop? Okay, that actually startled

1465
01:21:36.439 --> 01:21:39.960
me a little bit well before we go to break

1466
01:21:40.000 --> 01:21:43.159
and then we talk about creepy and weird New Year's traditions.

1467
01:21:44.279 --> 01:21:46.479
Do you have any New Year's traditions you always do

1468
01:21:47.000 --> 01:21:48.840
or have always done, or did when you were a kid.

1469
01:21:51.039 --> 01:21:53.600
I mean, we used to like eat or derms and

1470
01:21:53.720 --> 01:21:58.079
like watch like Twilight Zone and stuff. Now I don't

1471
01:21:58.079 --> 01:22:02.800
do anything. I'm I'll probably Twilight Zone, but like, I'm

1472
01:22:03.000 --> 01:22:05.079
not gonna eat anything good this year.

1473
01:22:05.800 --> 01:22:07.520
You don't want to eat much of anything at all

1474
01:22:07.600 --> 01:22:08.039
right now?

1475
01:22:08.079 --> 01:22:10.119
No, but I have to, but they have to be

1476
01:22:10.199 --> 01:22:13.319
things that I cooked in my house now for a while.

1477
01:22:14.079 --> 01:22:18.119
Yeah, I understand. I haven't had food poisoning. And that's

1478
01:22:18.119 --> 01:22:19.960
the weird thing though. Whenever when people get freaked out

1479
01:22:19.960 --> 01:22:21.840
because they get food poisoning, like I can't eat out anymore,

1480
01:22:21.840 --> 01:22:24.479
all I think is, like, man, I eat out like

1481
01:22:24.760 --> 01:22:28.520
way too much, like way too much, and I haven't

1482
01:22:28.520 --> 01:22:29.880
had food poisoning five years.

1483
01:22:30.159 --> 01:22:33.800
Yeah, I mean, I understand it's super rare obviously, but

1484
01:22:33.960 --> 01:22:36.319
I kind of just don't want to do it right now,

1485
01:22:36.479 --> 01:22:40.319
Like it sounds the whole, the whole just eating food

1486
01:22:40.359 --> 01:22:42.800
out just sounds really unappetizing At the moment.

1487
01:22:42.680 --> 01:22:45.119
I know, I totally and it's been it's really recent.

1488
01:22:45.520 --> 01:22:48.399
So no, it's more just weird that I'm like, man,

1489
01:22:48.560 --> 01:22:50.439
you'd think, I mean, I've got to be at really

1490
01:22:50.520 --> 01:22:55.239
high risk just from eating out so much, and I'm

1491
01:22:55.600 --> 01:22:57.520
it just doesn't happen that often. It's weird.

1492
01:22:57.920 --> 01:23:01.760
Yeah, maybe time, Yeah, maybe next time.

1493
01:23:01.960 --> 01:23:05.399
Next time, I'll get them. We ain't from the same

1494
01:23:05.439 --> 01:23:07.920
restaurant too, I mean, like it was just different dishes.

1495
01:23:08.319 --> 01:23:10.960
Yeah, I mean it's it's always possible, and it was

1496
01:23:11.000 --> 01:23:13.520
from something the day before, because it can take a

1497
01:23:13.520 --> 01:23:19.960
little while. No, okay, I don't buy that. Well then

1498
01:23:20.399 --> 01:23:22.600
then I guess you were just lucky that you didn't

1499
01:23:22.600 --> 01:23:23.239
need what I ate.

1500
01:23:23.880 --> 01:23:27.000
Well, I went for something mild for the stomach, which

1501
01:23:27.079 --> 01:23:33.359
is I went for fried pork belly and and and octopus.

1502
01:23:34.920 --> 01:23:39.079
I have no idea why I was fine and you weren't. Yeah.

1503
01:23:39.319 --> 01:23:42.840
Maybe it's just I'm just stronger, you know, just as

1504
01:23:42.880 --> 01:23:46.600
a person. Yeah, I have a better moral compass, so

1505
01:23:46.640 --> 01:23:47.920
I'm able to be all right.

1506
01:23:48.279 --> 01:23:49.600
I figured, you know.

1507
01:23:51.079 --> 01:23:52.680
That's you were like. I kind of assumed it just

1508
01:23:52.840 --> 01:23:54.840
was it was a it was a character flaw on

1509
01:23:54.920 --> 01:23:56.960
my part. That yeah, Ill, that's.

1510
01:23:56.840 --> 01:24:00.640
Usually what it is, so it's almost always.

1511
01:24:00.279 --> 01:24:03.279
What it is. Well, when I was a kid, we

1512
01:24:03.319 --> 01:24:07.000
would we would eat our meat and cheese tray, you know,

1513
01:24:07.039 --> 01:24:11.359
with crackers that my mom was gifted from somebody at work.

1514
01:24:11.520 --> 01:24:14.439
Every year, every year Christmas was a ham that a

1515
01:24:14.600 --> 01:24:17.359
client gave my mom, and every year New Year's was

1516
01:24:17.399 --> 01:24:21.520
some cheese and cracker thing that my mom was given

1517
01:24:21.560 --> 01:24:23.800
as well, which is hilarious because looking back, it was

1518
01:24:23.840 --> 01:24:25.560
just like you goblins, take this. I'll be in the

1519
01:24:25.560 --> 01:24:28.720
other room, you know, just like leave me alone, and

1520
01:24:28.760 --> 01:24:32.920
we would watch the countdown. That was the thing, although

1521
01:24:32.920 --> 01:24:34.760
my mom would almost always go to bed before it,

1522
01:24:34.800 --> 01:24:36.600
so it would be me and my sister staying up.

1523
01:24:37.000 --> 01:24:40.880
And but but my mom, because of her like kind

1524
01:24:40.920 --> 01:24:46.119
of old school Kentucky Southern Ohio upbringing, she would like

1525
01:24:46.239 --> 01:24:48.520
we would get like noisemakers, you know, things like that.

1526
01:24:48.560 --> 01:24:50.199
But she would also like pull out the pots and

1527
01:24:50.239 --> 01:24:51.840
pans and be like you can bang them together, but

1528
01:24:51.880 --> 01:24:54.520
not too hard, like don't break them, but you can

1529
01:24:54.560 --> 01:24:57.000
bang them together. So we would blow and then we

1530
01:24:57.039 --> 01:24:58.680
would like bang pots and pans together.

1531
01:24:59.159 --> 01:25:01.479
My neighbor did that nice.

1532
01:25:02.000 --> 01:25:05.560
Yeah, Well, when we get back, when we talk a

1533
01:25:05.600 --> 01:25:09.079
little bit about some traditions of New Year's They might

1534
01:25:09.119 --> 01:25:11.359
be meant. There might be mentioned of why some people

1535
01:25:11.399 --> 01:25:15.880
think you should make tons of noise on the New Year,

1536
01:25:16.680 --> 01:25:19.079
or maybe not. I guess you'll have to wait to

1537
01:25:19.119 --> 01:25:31.439
find out after this. All right, it's time to dive

1538
01:25:31.520 --> 01:25:37.199
into this month's topic, which is creepy New Year's traditions, superstitions,

1539
01:25:37.640 --> 01:25:42.000
things like that. So I found an article or a

1540
01:25:42.039 --> 01:25:44.199
listicle or what I don't know what they call ease.

1541

01:25:47.640 --> 01:25:50.840

01:25:59.439 --> 01:26:01.760
This was published on the twelfth of December of this year. Okay,

so let's see what we've got. Sparklers and confetti check

or sour noble at to beat against the walls of

1549
01:26:16.039 --> 01:26:18.119
your house during a New Year's Eve party to chase

1550
01:26:18.119 --> 01:26:21.600
away evil spirits or uh, maybe that's when the New

1551
01:26:21.640 --> 01:26:26.159
Year's custom you're a little less familiar with when it

1552
01:26:26.199 --> 01:26:28.800
comes to traditions people embrace to ring in the new year.

1553
01:26:28.880 --> 01:26:31.800
Some are less known than others, and many are downright spooky,

1554
01:26:32.039 --> 01:26:34.199
so much so that they could give baby New Year

1555
01:26:34.239 --> 01:26:39.079
and father time nightmares. Below our six unsettling superstitions from

1556
01:26:39.119 --> 01:26:41.600
around the world that make December thirty first feel more

1557
01:26:41.640 --> 01:26:45.239
like October thirty first. It said six, but the headline

1558
01:26:45.239 --> 01:26:45.760
says seven.

1559
01:26:46.520 --> 01:26:48.319
Eh, they're not sure.

1560
01:26:49.600 --> 01:26:50.319
There are seven.

1561
01:26:50.800 --> 01:26:52.439
Oh now I'm really confused.

1562
01:26:53.079 --> 01:26:56.399
So this one you might like. This one use bread

1563
01:26:56.439 --> 01:27:01.520
to scare away spirits that mean you harm. You like bread, yeah,

1564
01:27:01.600 --> 01:27:02.119
but I.

1565
01:27:02.079 --> 01:27:14.880
Don't like to use it for non food things.

1566
01:27:09.760 --> 01:27:12.760
That sour dough bread baking hobby will come in handy

1567
01:27:12.800 --> 01:27:14.960
if you want to partake in this old Irish New

1568
01:27:15.039 --> 01:27:17.880
Year's Eve tradition. Back in the day, residents of the

1569
01:27:17.880 --> 01:27:21.720
Emerald Isle would bang loaves against doors and walls just

1570
01:27:21.760 --> 01:27:25.640
before midnight to ward off any angry apparitions or problematic

1571
01:27:25.680 --> 01:27:27.439
phantoms that might be lurking.

1572
01:27:29.359 --> 01:27:31.159
I mean, I don't know why that would work for sure.

1573
01:27:32.199 --> 01:27:36.279
Whacking wheat bread and clubbing shabbata against the wall is

1574
01:27:36.319 --> 01:27:39.319
also believed to send the bad luck packing and ensure

1575
01:27:39.359 --> 01:27:42.600
that your family won't go hungry. For the next twelve months.

1576
01:27:43.079 --> 01:27:47.600
Okay, sure, it doesn't.

1577
01:27:47.279 --> 01:27:49.000
Sound like you have to ruin the bread. You're just

1578
01:27:49.159 --> 01:27:50.800
beating stuff with it and then you eat.

1579
01:27:50.640 --> 01:27:55.079
It later, feed it too hard and gets all messed up.

1580
01:27:55.199 --> 01:27:58.680
Not everyone has what I would call passion issues, like

1581
01:27:58.800 --> 01:28:05.479
you do. Fine, she's violent everybody. Oh, here's another one.

1582
01:28:05.760 --> 01:28:08.680
Set a place at the dinner table for lost loved ones.

1583
01:28:10.520 --> 01:28:13.479
Another Irish New Year's Eve custom is to leave the

1584
01:28:13.520 --> 01:28:16.039
door unlocked and set a place at the dinner table

1585
01:28:16.039 --> 01:28:18.800
on New Year's Eve to welcome back the spirits of

1586
01:28:18.880 --> 01:28:22.640
loved ones who were lost during the last year. To some,

1587
01:28:22.720 --> 01:28:25.560
it might suggest that Irish households are a revolving door

1588
01:28:25.600 --> 01:28:29.039
of wanted and unwanted specters during this holiday.

1589
01:28:30.800 --> 01:28:31.880
I guess.

1590
01:28:33.319 --> 01:28:35.399
You did. You just hate New Year's Like you just

1591
01:28:35.399 --> 01:28:37.760
don't want to You're just like, no, don't don't like

1592
01:28:37.920 --> 01:28:44.880
New Years? Really? I love New Year's a what? How? Okay? Whoa?

1593
01:28:45.159 --> 01:28:46.800
How is it stupid? Like?

1594
01:28:46.880 --> 01:28:49.600
What what are we doing? It's just another day? We

1595
01:28:49.800 --> 01:28:52.720
Harvish farily decided that this was the end of the year.

1596
01:28:53.199 --> 01:28:54.199
I hate everything.

1597
01:28:54.600 --> 01:28:59.840
There are other New Years too, Yeah, so I have

1598
01:29:00.159 --> 01:29:02.520
saying like there's a lot of arbitrary choices. But what

1599
01:29:02.560 --> 01:29:04.439
about but what about all the other holidays? You can

1600
01:29:04.439 --> 01:29:06.880
say exactly. You just feel that way about all holidays? Now?

1601
01:29:07.279 --> 01:29:08.359
Is that? Is that your move?

1602
01:29:08.680 --> 01:29:09.199
Yeah?

1603
01:29:09.439 --> 01:29:11.640
Like, why do we even care? It's just Christmas, It's

1604
01:29:11.640 --> 01:29:12.640
just twenty fifth?

1605
01:29:12.880 --> 01:29:15.399
Yeah, who the fuck cares? We just made this up anyway.

1606
01:29:15.960 --> 01:29:16.880
You're hurtful.

1607
01:29:17.239 --> 01:29:17.920
I'm sorry.

1608
01:29:18.159 --> 01:29:21.359
What is with you? Man? I'm sad. I'm gonna call

1609
01:29:21.399 --> 01:29:25.239
your mother. No, I'm making.

1610
01:29:25.239 --> 01:29:27.039
He's already worried about me.

1611
01:29:27.399 --> 01:29:29.920
I know. And that's why I owe this to her. No,

1612
01:29:31.359 --> 01:29:34.960
I think it's gonna have to happen. This next one

1613
01:29:35.000 --> 01:29:38.399
I've never heard about at all. Don't even think about

1614
01:29:38.439 --> 01:29:43.520
going into the laundry room on New Year's Day. Oh,

1615
01:29:43.600 --> 01:29:46.760
for most people, doing laundry is an everyday household task.

1616
01:29:46.880 --> 01:29:48.479
Every day every day.

1617
01:29:50.079 --> 01:29:52.079
It's like a couple of times a week at most.

1618
01:29:52.600 --> 01:29:54.199
I do laundry once a month.

1619
01:29:56.199 --> 01:29:59.680
We know, I can. I can smell it from here, No,

1620
01:30:01.720 --> 01:30:04.119
well I will. I was when my dogs were sick,

1621
01:30:04.199 --> 01:30:06.760
I was doing laundry every single day because I had

1622
01:30:06.760 --> 01:30:10.640
bought reusable peapads because it was much easier. So yeah,

1623
01:30:10.680 --> 01:30:15.119
then I was running laundry like constantly, but let's see

1624
01:30:15.119 --> 01:30:17.319
from every day. But as it turns out, there is

1625
01:30:17.359 --> 01:30:21.039
a shocking number of spooky superstitions that revolve around performing

1626
01:30:21.079 --> 01:30:24.800
this seemingly mundane chore around the New year. The most

1627
01:30:24.800 --> 01:30:28.399
severe claims that if you clean clothes on January first,

1628
01:30:28.680 --> 01:30:33.439
you'll be washing for the dead and the member.

1629
01:30:33.159 --> 01:30:35.800
Of Oh sorry, no continue, sorry sorry.

1630
01:30:35.560 --> 01:30:38.039
And a member of your family will be washed away,

1631
01:30:38.560 --> 01:30:41.079
which is really just a poetic way of saying someone

1632
01:30:41.119 --> 01:30:44.279
you love will die at some point in the coming year.

1633
01:30:44.760 --> 01:30:48.079
Gee will also send a year of good fortune spiraling

1634
01:30:48.560 --> 01:30:49.359
down the drain.

1635
01:30:50.399 --> 01:30:51.479
Well that's mean.

1636
01:30:53.039 --> 01:30:56.880
Even the least ominous of these laundry related superstitions is

1637
01:30:56.920 --> 01:30:59.680
still no laughing matter. Tradition holds that if you wash

1638
01:30:59.720 --> 01:31:02.800
alone of clothing on New Year's Day, you'll jinx yourself

1639
01:31:02.800 --> 01:31:09.399
into having more laundry than usual all year. I like

1640
01:31:09.439 --> 01:31:10.840
how that one's just kind of charming.

1641
01:31:11.960 --> 01:31:12.399
Yeah.

1642
01:31:12.800 --> 01:31:16.960
The other one's like your family will die, you know. Okay,

1643
01:31:17.000 --> 01:31:19.640
here's another one I've never heard before. Don't get rid

1644
01:31:19.720 --> 01:31:27.159
of anything until January second or else. According to this

1645
01:31:27.279 --> 01:31:32.399
New Year's superstition, nothing be it leftover pizza, empty wine bottles.

1646
01:31:32.439 --> 01:31:35.319
You get. The idea should be removed from your house

1647
01:31:35.479 --> 01:31:39.760
until after New Year's Day. It was even a thing

1648
01:31:39.880 --> 01:31:43.760
back in the Victorian era, although our nineteenth century forebearers

1649
01:31:43.920 --> 01:31:46.520
believed you could get rid of stuff with no problems,

1650
01:31:46.720 --> 01:31:50.000
provided you replaced whatever you toss with something new.

1651
01:31:50.520 --> 01:31:50.760
Hmm.

1652
01:31:51.800 --> 01:31:54.880
Either way, the consequences for not adhering to this custom

1653
01:31:55.560 --> 01:31:59.079
are dire. The idea is that it'll set the tone

1654
01:31:59.159 --> 01:32:02.720
for a steady of people and things to leave you

1655
01:32:02.800 --> 01:32:05.720
in the year to come. If you want to avoid

1656
01:32:05.720 --> 01:32:09.279
a year of misfortune, maybe hold off on shopping spreeze

1657
01:32:09.520 --> 01:32:11.680
for a couple of days.

1658
01:32:12.800 --> 01:32:13.399
Okay.

1659
01:32:13.800 --> 01:32:15.840
I do have a weird like tradition that I try

1660
01:32:15.920 --> 01:32:18.439
to eat like my absolute favorite food that I can

1661
01:32:18.479 --> 01:32:21.039
get my hands on on New Year's Day to start

1662
01:32:21.039 --> 01:32:23.000
the year on that foot.

1663
01:32:23.359 --> 01:32:23.800
Okay.

1664
01:32:24.279 --> 01:32:26.479
So for a long time it was cheeseburger, and then

1665
01:32:26.479 --> 01:32:30.479
I got more hoity toity, So now it's been sushi. Okay,

1666
01:32:30.479 --> 01:32:32.159
I start the new year by eating like a ton

1667
01:32:32.239 --> 01:32:35.800
of sushi. That sounds good this year. Maybe I should

1668
01:32:35.800 --> 01:32:39.560
just go get hot Pot again. I just want to live. Yeah, yeah,

1669
01:32:39.680 --> 01:32:41.239
I just want the hot Pot forever.

1670
01:32:42.119 --> 01:32:42.439
I know.

1671
01:32:44.439 --> 01:32:49.680
Gosh, so judgy. This next one. Burn effigies to get

1672
01:32:49.760 --> 01:32:52.000
rid of last year's bad vibes.

1673
01:32:52.399 --> 01:32:53.720
Okay, I could do that.

1674
01:32:55.000 --> 01:32:58.359
New Year's Eve is particularly lit in Ecuador, where at

1675
01:32:58.399 --> 01:33:01.119
the stroke of midnight, the country to the streets to

1676
01:33:01.199 --> 01:33:06.640
burn effigies referred to as montegotts of politicians, pop culture figures,

1677
01:33:06.640 --> 01:33:09.920
and other icons that represent the Anno Yeho old year.

1678
01:33:10.960 --> 01:33:14.560
This is often after men dress as morning widows beg

1679
01:33:14.640 --> 01:33:17.359
for money while in costume and parade the dummies through

1680
01:33:17.359 --> 01:33:20.960
the streets. Okay, Ecuador, are you okay?

1681
01:33:21.479 --> 01:33:25.119
I think that sounds fun bro Ecuador.

1682
01:33:24.720 --> 01:33:28.600
You are right. The symbolic cleansing dates back to an

1683
01:33:28.680 --> 01:33:34.920
eighteen ninety five yellow fever outbreak. Back then, people stuffed

1684
01:33:34.960 --> 01:33:38.000
caskets full of clothes from the deceased and set them

1685
01:33:38.000 --> 01:33:43.399
ablaze as a literal and figurative purification ritual. Nowadays, some

1686
01:33:43.479 --> 01:33:47.800
folks also hide messages in the monigotes, listing off all

1687
01:33:47.880 --> 01:33:49.840
the bad things from the past year that they want

1688
01:33:49.840 --> 01:33:52.520
to put behind them in the upcoming one. Okay, if

1689
01:33:52.520 --> 01:33:55.600
you can't afford an elaborate moneygotte of your own, you

1690
01:33:55.600 --> 01:33:59.199
can use a simple scarecrow and mask. Added luck in

1691
01:33:59.239 --> 01:34:02.880
the Anio noise is also said to come to anyone

1692
01:34:02.960 --> 01:34:06.359
who jumps the flame once for every month of the year.

1693
01:34:07.399 --> 01:34:10.520
So you jump over the effigy twelve times till I

1694
01:34:10.600 --> 01:34:12.640
guarantee you good good fortune.

1695
01:34:12.840 --> 01:34:18.319
What if you get caught on fire though, I.

1696
01:34:18.239 --> 01:34:23.479
Mean, I guess that would start your year a little rough. Yeah,

1697
01:34:23.600 --> 01:34:31.600
that's when it's anos nuevos anos weenos fumas. Flames make

1698
01:34:31.680 --> 01:34:34.119
lots of noise on New Year's Eve. But don't forget

1699
01:34:34.159 --> 01:34:36.039
to open all the doors and windows.

1700
01:34:36.399 --> 01:34:38.359
No, it's cold outside.

1701
01:34:39.760 --> 01:34:43.439
Don't mess this up at the risk of catching your

1702
01:34:43.479 --> 01:34:47.359
death of cold. Consider implementing an old strategy from the Philippines.

1703
01:34:47.880 --> 01:34:50.840
Homeowners open all the doors and windows just before midnight

1704
01:34:50.920 --> 01:34:53.520
to serve up an eviction notice to any bad juju

1705
01:34:53.760 --> 01:34:57.479
that might be lingering around and usher positive auras into

1706
01:34:57.520 --> 01:35:00.520
their abodes. That's not the only way to keep wicked

1707
01:35:00.600 --> 01:35:04.520
rates from darkening your doorstep either. According to Filipino tradition,

1708
01:35:04.960 --> 01:35:07.520
the more noise you make on December thirty first, the better.

1709
01:35:07.920 --> 01:35:10.640
As it's also believed that a big ruckus helps to

1710
01:35:10.720 --> 01:35:13.760
drive away evil spirits. You'll have a reason to be

1711
01:35:13.800 --> 01:35:16.600
loud and scared all over again when the extra high

1712
01:35:16.680 --> 01:35:19.960
heating bill from your party comes in the mail. That's

1713
01:35:20.000 --> 01:35:23.079
pretty good mental floss. I'll give you that one. Yeah,

1714
01:35:23.199 --> 01:35:26.000
my cigar lounge. They're doing a this year. They're doing

1715
01:35:26.039 --> 01:35:28.359
a pajama karaoke party for New Year's.

1716
01:35:28.640 --> 01:35:29.520
That's pretty nice.

1717
01:35:30.359 --> 01:35:32.920
Yeah, I'm excited. Usually it's just sit around it's New

1718
01:35:32.960 --> 01:35:35.119
Year's like, that's it. That was the whole. This year,

1719
01:35:35.159 --> 01:35:37.039
we're doing pajama party karaoke.

1720
01:35:37.600 --> 01:35:38.399
Hum.

1721
01:35:38.640 --> 01:35:41.680
Yeah, all right, one last one. This one looks like

1722
01:35:41.720 --> 01:35:44.319
it's from the part of the world. You like, No

1723
01:35:45.239 --> 01:35:48.560
Japan Weebville. We need to just change the name of

1724
01:35:48.640 --> 01:35:50.319
Japan to like weep something.

1725
01:35:50.319 --> 01:35:51.560
That's not very nice.

1726
01:35:52.880 --> 01:35:56.960
Japan isn't very nice. Uh, dress up like a demon

1727
01:35:57.399 --> 01:36:01.960
and maybe ensure a good harvest. Like Halloween. Some New

1728
01:36:02.000 --> 01:36:06.079
Year superstitions involve a costume change. In small villages around Japan,

1729
01:36:06.239 --> 01:36:10.800
including Oga, young men dressed as the Nama haji ogre

1730
01:36:10.960 --> 01:36:14.319
like demon and go door to door to frighten lazy

1731
01:36:14.359 --> 01:36:21.039
people nice. They also threaten to snatch away misbehaving children,

1732
01:36:21.079 --> 01:36:23.399
but back off once the head of the household offers

1733
01:36:23.680 --> 01:36:28.039
sake or rice cakes. Basically, it's like crampis only significantly

1734
01:36:28.039 --> 01:36:30.359
more menacing and tied to New Year instead of Christmas.

1735
01:36:30.840 --> 01:36:34.079
These terrifying figures are also believed to bring protection from

1736
01:36:34.079 --> 01:36:37.600
illness and disasters once appeased, as well as a good

1737
01:36:37.600 --> 01:36:41.199
harvest and plentiful food year round. So at least there

1738
01:36:41.279 --> 01:36:42.800
is an upside.

1739
01:36:42.960 --> 01:36:44.119
Yay, that's a.

1740
01:36:44.079 --> 01:36:48.000
Pretty good little article. Yeah, that's pretty good. Well, I

1741
01:36:48.039 --> 01:36:51.119
do have one more article with some more examples, and

1742
01:36:51.159 --> 01:36:53.600
I don't think it it's repetitive. We're gonna go through

1743
01:36:53.600 --> 01:37:03.960
those real quick after this. I wouldn't want to leave

1744
01:37:04.000 --> 01:37:06.079
people high and dry. So we have a few more

1745
01:37:06.199 --> 01:37:09.960
creepy and weird New Year's traditions from around the globe.

1746
01:37:10.039 --> 01:37:15.000
This time we have a few from creepybonfire dot com.

1747
01:37:15.039 --> 01:37:17.840
And these are different than the other ones. That's why

1748
01:37:18.039 --> 01:37:21.239
I pulled up too. The first one they reference is

1749
01:37:21.279 --> 01:37:24.199
called the Dark Rider of Scotland, also known as the

1750
01:37:24.239 --> 01:37:29.279
First Footing tradition. In the heart of Scotland, as the

1751
01:37:29.319 --> 01:37:31.960
old year gives way to the new, a unique and

1752
01:37:32.039 --> 01:37:36.680
suspenseful tradition unfolds first footing. Rooted in Scottish, Northern English

1753
01:37:36.680 --> 01:37:40.199
and Manx folklore, this custom dictates that the first person

1754
01:37:40.239 --> 01:37:42.039
to enter a home after the stroke of midnight on

1755
01:37:42.039 --> 01:37:45.279
New Year's Day will bring either good fortune, fortune or

1756
01:37:45.359 --> 01:37:49.520
misfortune for the year ahead. The ideal first footer is

1757
01:37:49.560 --> 01:37:53.119
often a tall, dark haired male. Hey, I'm not tall,

1758
01:37:53.640 --> 01:37:57.079
believe to bring the best luck. This figure stepping into

1759
01:37:57.079 --> 01:37:59.159
the house at the very start of the year is

1760
01:37:59.239 --> 01:38:01.720
laden with eymbolism and expectation.

1761
01:38:02.279 --> 01:38:02.520
Hmm.

1762
01:38:04.399 --> 01:38:07.439
The roots of first footing are shrouded in mystery, with

1763
01:38:07.479 --> 01:38:10.439
some tracing it back to the Viking invasions of the

1764
01:38:10.479 --> 01:38:15.560
British Isles. A stranger's arrival, especially a dark haired one,

1765
01:38:15.760 --> 01:38:19.640
once stirred fear, reminiscent of the alarming days of Viking raids.

1766
01:38:20.039 --> 01:38:24.279
This tradition has evolved over time, intertwining with local customs

1767
01:38:24.479 --> 01:38:28.960
and superstitions. In Scotland, the practice varies from place to place,

1768
01:38:29.079 --> 01:38:32.479
but it generally involves the first footer bringing symbolic gifts

1769
01:38:32.520 --> 01:38:37.680
such as coal, coins, whiskey, or black buns. Whoa, I

1770
01:38:37.680 --> 01:38:40.760
can go for some. Yeah. These gifts are not just

1771
01:38:40.840 --> 01:38:44.920
tokens of goodwill, but also emblems of warmth, prosperity, and celebration.

1772
01:38:45.439 --> 01:38:47.800
In return, the first footer is often greeted with food

1773
01:38:47.800 --> 01:38:50.680
and drink, making a communal start to the new year.

1774
01:38:52.800 --> 01:38:54.880
That's kind of nice. You just go to people's houses.

1775
01:38:55.760 --> 01:38:57.399
Want to be the first person they'll feed me.

1776
01:38:57.680 --> 01:39:02.319
Yes, as long as you have dark hair, I guess yeah.

1777
01:39:02.319 --> 01:39:05.279
It's freaking awesome. So this one. Have you ever heard

1778
01:39:05.319 --> 01:39:07.920
of this? Japan's Bell of Forgetfulness?

1779
01:39:08.319 --> 01:39:11.319
I don't think so.

1780
01:39:11.439 --> 01:39:14.279
As the new year approaches in Duet, are they real?

1781
01:39:15.199 --> 01:39:18.640
I don't know. It looks like it. As the new

1782
01:39:18.680 --> 01:39:21.960
year approaches in Japan, a profound and resonant tradition takes place.

1783
01:39:22.560 --> 01:39:26.000
Joya no khan Kane. I keep wanting to read this

1784
01:39:26.039 --> 01:39:31.239
in Spanish. This ritual, deeply rooted in Japanese Buddhist customs,

1785
01:39:31.520 --> 01:39:33.560
is observed on New Year's Eve as part of the

1786
01:39:33.800 --> 01:39:37.960
Olmosaka celebrations. The heart of this tradition lies in the

1787
01:39:37.960 --> 01:39:41.399
striking of the temple bell or bon show one hundred

1788
01:39:41.439 --> 01:39:47.279
and eight times at midnight. This practice, primarily celebrated in Japan,

1789
01:39:47.520 --> 01:39:50.600
but also observed in South Korea and at Japanese Buddhist

1790
01:39:50.600 --> 01:39:54.199
temples worldwide, symbolizes the purification of the soul.

1791
01:39:57.319 --> 01:39:59.720
Okay, I don't know if this is a real thing.

1792
01:40:00.159 --> 01:40:01.039
Tried to look it up.

1793
01:40:01.640 --> 01:40:02.840
Oh is it not coming up?

1794
01:40:03.159 --> 01:40:03.359
No?

1795
01:40:04.319 --> 01:40:06.520
Are you serious? Uh?

1796
01:40:06.800 --> 01:40:09.760
When I look up Bell of forgetfulness. I get the

1797
01:40:09.800 --> 01:40:13.079
Memory Bell by Kate Flanny Flannery.

1798
01:40:14.000 --> 01:40:16.880
Uh, if you look up Joya no Caine, it comes up.

1799
01:40:17.319 --> 01:40:17.760
Okay.

1800
01:40:18.159 --> 01:40:19.680
It's also known as the midnight Bell.

1801
01:40:20.039 --> 01:40:23.159
I'm not sure how to spell joya nokaine j.

1802
01:40:23.079 --> 01:40:26.039
O y a n o k n a k a

1803
01:40:26.279 --> 01:40:29.479
n e. Okay, I give Yeah, this is not some

1804
01:40:29.600 --> 01:40:32.319
made up A. I think. I think you spend too

1805
01:40:32.399 --> 01:40:37.000
much time with A. I I do. I'm worried about you.

1806
01:40:37.000 --> 01:40:38.479
We're all very worried about you.

1807
01:40:39.000 --> 01:40:43.399
Okay, Yeah you should be. It's Joya no kane with Kanye. Yeah.

1808
01:40:43.439 --> 01:40:49.199
That's how you'd say it in Spanish and in Italian. Yeah.

1809
01:40:49.520 --> 01:40:51.479
But the origin of the Joya o Khanee can be

1810
01:40:51.479 --> 01:40:54.039
traced back to Zen Buddhist customs from the Song dynasty

1811
01:40:54.079 --> 01:40:57.760
in China, adopted by Japanese Zen temples during the Kamakura period.

1812
01:40:58.119 --> 01:41:00.000
The ritual of ringing the bell one d eight times

1813
01:41:00.079 --> 01:41:03.600
to steeped in Buddhist philosophy. In Buddhism, it is believed

1814
01:41:03.600 --> 01:41:06.720
that humans have one hundred and eight sins. These are

1815
01:41:06.760 --> 01:41:10.279
derived from the sixth senses sight, hearing, smell, taste, body

1816
01:41:10.359 --> 01:41:15.399
and mind. Ah So smell and taste are separate, all right.

1817
01:41:15.479 --> 01:41:19.680
I appreciate that also body, your sense of body and mind,

1818
01:41:21.439 --> 01:41:25.640
each with pleasant, unpleasant, and neutral variations, further divided into

1819
01:41:25.640 --> 01:41:29.319
pure and impure categories. These variations, multiplied by the three

1820
01:41:29.359 --> 01:41:33.079
aspects of time, past, present, and future, result in one

1821
01:41:33.119 --> 01:41:38.640
hundred and eight. Okay, this one. I'm sure you've heard

1822
01:41:38.640 --> 01:41:41.880
of the merry lude or Lloyd whatever. It's a it's

1823
01:41:41.920 --> 01:41:45.079
a horse skull under a sheet. No, it's in Wales.

1824
01:41:45.119 --> 01:41:48.520
You've never heard of this? No? Oh man, I don't

1825
01:41:48.600 --> 01:41:51.359
how do you say mary lude? It's it's This is

1826
01:41:51.399 --> 01:41:55.000
one of the few weird New Year's traditions I knew about.

1827
01:41:56.279 --> 01:41:58.600
Although I don't know how to say it, but it's

1828
01:41:58.640 --> 01:42:01.319
literally like a guy in a horse, like in a

1829
01:42:01.359 --> 01:42:04.720
costume with a horse skull. It looks really creepy and weird.

1830
01:42:06.079 --> 01:42:08.840
In the wintry landscapes of South Wales, a haunting an

1831
01:42:08.960 --> 01:42:13.640
enigmatic transit tradition known as Marry or It's e fairy

1832
01:42:13.760 --> 01:42:16.359
Lloyd is absurd. I don't know how to say it.

1833
01:42:16.640 --> 01:42:19.880
This was sailing folk custom, deeply rooted in Welsh culture,

1834
01:42:20.119 --> 01:42:23.319
involves a peculiar and evil figure a hobby horse made

1835
01:42:23.359 --> 01:42:26.159
from a horse's skull mounted on a pole, shrouded in

1836
01:42:26.159 --> 01:42:29.680
a white sheet, carried by an individual concealed beneath sackcloth.

1837
01:42:30.239 --> 01:42:32.039
The Merry Louid, or however we say it, is a

1838
01:42:32.119 --> 01:42:36.760
striking and ghostly presence, embodying a blend of festivity and macabre.

1839
01:42:38.880 --> 01:42:42.600
Performed during winter festivities. The custom varied in date and

1840
01:42:42.680 --> 01:42:47.560
duration between villages. Adorned with colorful ribbons and rosettes, it

1841
01:42:47.600 --> 01:42:50.479
would bring a blend of fear and amusement inside the houses.

1842
01:42:51.520 --> 01:42:54.359
The merry load would then create chaos, snapping its jaws

1843
01:42:54.359 --> 01:42:57.479
and neighing while the group and entertained the householders with

1844
01:42:57.600 --> 01:43:02.760
music and merriment. Okay, some referred to it as the

1845
01:43:02.800 --> 01:43:03.319
gray Mare.

1846
01:43:05.439 --> 01:43:10.199
That makes sense because yeah.

1847
01:43:09.039 --> 01:43:12.880
In Spain they have the twelve Grapes of Luck. H

1848
01:43:13.640 --> 01:43:18.000
never heard of this one. Grapes in Spain has midnight

1849
01:43:18.039 --> 01:43:20.920
on December thirty first approaches. A vibrant tradition unfolds The

1850
01:43:20.920 --> 01:43:24.680
twelve Grapes of Luck, embedded in Spanish culture, entails eating

1851
01:43:24.720 --> 01:43:27.279
a grape with each chime of the clock at midnight,

1852
01:43:27.600 --> 01:43:31.560
symbolizing the new year's welcome. Each grape signifies a forthcoming

1853
01:43:31.640 --> 01:43:34.840
month believed to bring good luck and prosperity for the

1854
01:43:34.920 --> 01:43:35.479
year ahead.

1855
01:43:36.279 --> 01:43:38.239
I don't like that because you have to eat the

1856
01:43:38.239 --> 01:43:39.279
grapes really fast.

1857
01:43:41.119 --> 01:43:46.319
Dong dong. Yeah, that's too fast for you.

1858
01:43:46.479 --> 01:43:47.479
It's too much pressure.

1859
01:43:49.000 --> 01:43:50.720
I think you could just pop a new one in

1860
01:43:50.760 --> 01:43:55.479
your mouth and just keep just going. No, what's wrong

1861
01:43:55.520 --> 01:43:55.840
with that.

1862
01:43:56.239 --> 01:43:58.039
I don't know. It sounds like that's not the right

1863
01:43:58.079 --> 01:43:59.920
way to do it.

1864
01:44:02.600 --> 01:44:04.640
You just have to hate all the good stuff. Well,

1865
01:44:04.680 --> 01:44:09.000
this is one I know you'll like. Romania's bear dance.

1866
01:44:10.520 --> 01:44:13.880
I don't like bears, but it's people dressed as bears.

1867
01:44:14.520 --> 01:44:17.479
I guess that's only that's a little better.

1868
01:44:18.960 --> 01:44:21.600
In Romania, the bear dance is a captivating and colorful

1869
01:44:21.600 --> 01:44:24.680
tradition that marks the new year's celebration. The country's folklore

1870
01:44:24.680 --> 01:44:27.720
and cultural heritage deeply rooted this In this unique custom,

1871
01:44:27.880 --> 01:44:30.279
the bear dance isn't just a winter performance. It's a

1872
01:44:30.279 --> 01:44:34.159
symbolic ritual embodying the cycle of time, signifying both death

1873
01:44:34.199 --> 01:44:37.399
and rebirth. Believed to purify and enrich the soil of

1874
01:44:37.439 --> 01:44:40.520
the upcoming year, it holds a deeper significance beyond just

1875
01:44:40.560 --> 01:44:44.399
a mere dance. It showcases Romania's rich cultural heritage and

1876
01:44:44.439 --> 01:44:47.800
deep ties to nature. The bear dance in Romania is

1877
01:44:47.800 --> 01:44:49.720
a remarkable blend of past and present, a ritual that

1878
01:44:49.720 --> 01:44:54.119
brings communities together in celebration and hope for the new year. Okay,

1879
01:44:55.079 --> 01:44:59.920
now these are all strange. We have one more. Okay,

1880
01:45:00.560 --> 01:45:03.680
the graveyard vigil of Talca, Chile, or a Night among

1881
01:45:03.680 --> 01:45:07.479
the Tombstones. I've heard of this one in the small

1882
01:45:07.520 --> 01:45:08.439
town of Talca.

1883
01:45:09.079 --> 01:45:12.359
Du what oh I just said? I haven't sorry, Well,

1884
01:45:12.399 --> 01:45:12.960
you don't.

1885
01:45:12.920 --> 01:45:16.600
Care about Chile, clearly, which is hateful. In the small

1886
01:45:16.640 --> 01:45:19.680
town of Talca, located in the Mali region of Chile,

1887
01:45:20.199 --> 01:45:23.720
there exists a unique New Year's tradition. As midnight approaches

1888
01:45:23.720 --> 01:45:26.039
on December thirty first, some locals engage in a practice

1889
01:45:26.079 --> 01:45:28.600
that might seem unusual to outsiders. They spend the night

1890
01:45:28.720 --> 01:45:32.960
in the graveyard, keeping vigil among the tombstones. This tradition,

1891
01:45:34.760 --> 01:45:38.520
our participants bring candles, flowers, and even set up picnics

1892
01:45:38.520 --> 01:45:42.119
beside the graves of their family members and friends. The atmosphere,

1893
01:45:42.119 --> 01:45:44.640
contrary to what one might expect, is not morose or

1894
01:45:44.680 --> 01:45:48.159
overlea somber. Instead, it is a time of reflection, remembrance,

1895
01:45:48.199 --> 01:45:51.279
and even celebration of the lives of those who passed

1896
01:45:51.920 --> 01:45:57.279
this practice. The singular Sorry Singular vigil showcases the very

1897
01:45:57.319 --> 01:46:00.359
cultural celebrations worldwide and serves as appointant room reminder of

1898
01:46:00.439 --> 01:46:03.439
universal themes like love, memory, and the passage of time.

1899
01:46:03.920 --> 01:46:06.920
They used a lot of AI to make this list,

1900
01:46:08.319 --> 01:46:10.960
they did. I'm just admitting it. They use a lot

1901
01:46:10.960 --> 01:46:13.319
of AI to make that list. But those are some

1902
01:46:13.479 --> 01:46:16.319
interesting ones to chew on, especially if you like grapes

1903
01:46:16.920 --> 01:46:19.359
for the new year. So we're gonna take a break

1904
01:46:19.399 --> 01:46:21.439
and we're gonna come back wrapping things up and saying

1905
01:46:21.439 --> 01:46:25.000
goodbye to twenty twenty four after Michelle tells us what

1906
01:46:25.159 --> 01:46:28.600
she's grateful for from the past year. Right after this,

1907
01:46:30.399 --> 01:46:32.720
I thought you'd be more upset by that. No, I

1908
01:46:32.800 --> 01:46:46.319
give up, h fair, All right, Shelle, now's the time

1909
01:46:46.359 --> 01:46:51.560
you've rehearsed for ald Lang Sin take it away?

1910
01:46:52.039 --> 01:46:52.760
What am I doing?

1911
01:46:53.159 --> 01:46:54.039
Old Lang sign?

1912
01:46:55.000 --> 01:46:55.159
Oh?

1913
01:46:55.199 --> 01:46:59.439
I don't know that you we've been preparing this for months.

1914
01:47:00.119 --> 01:47:04.640
I no, I haven't been. I just keep telling you

1915
01:47:04.800 --> 01:47:06.039
that I'm preparing it.

1916
01:47:07.399 --> 01:47:10.520
That is so cruel. It's like deeply cruel.

1917
01:47:10.720 --> 01:47:13.479
It wasn't supposed to be a lie. I just hadn't

1918
01:47:13.479 --> 01:47:15.880
gotten around to it and then things got all crazy

1919
01:47:15.960 --> 01:47:17.800
and you know.

1920
01:47:18.720 --> 01:47:23.600
Uh, well, we are wrapping up the year, so a

1921
01:47:23.600 --> 01:47:25.800
few things I want to get to. As far as

1922
01:47:25.840 --> 01:47:29.960
horror media goes, I saw There's Something in the Barn

1923
01:47:30.159 --> 01:47:33.720
on Netflix. It's a new to me Christmas horror comedy,

1924
01:47:33.880 --> 01:47:37.000
super fun. I recommend it's about a killer. It's about

1925
01:47:37.039 --> 01:47:39.760
a family moves to Norway and there's a killer in

1926
01:47:39.800 --> 01:47:43.720
their elf in their barn. But it's played. It's played

1927
01:47:43.720 --> 01:47:45.760
for laughs, but it's also really fun and it gets

1928
01:47:45.800 --> 01:47:50.800
really outrageous. The other big Christmas horror media I saw.

1929
01:47:51.359 --> 01:47:54.920
I saw Black Christmas fiftieth anniversary screening. It was really

1930
01:47:54.960 --> 01:47:58.680
awesome and rest in peace to Olivia Hussey, one of

1931
01:47:58.680 --> 01:48:02.720
the lead actresses who passed away yesterday. Oh god, that

1932
01:48:02.840 --> 01:48:06.119
was in Black Christmas. I also saw No Sparatu, the

1933
01:48:06.159 --> 01:48:11.479
remake of the German ripoff of Dracula, and I liked it.

1934
01:48:11.520 --> 01:48:14.920
I I Black Christmas is amazing. By the way, I

1935
01:48:14.960 --> 01:48:17.560
just got really depressed talking about Olivia Hussey just passing away.

1936
01:48:18.880 --> 01:48:21.800
I like No Sparatu. My biggest complaint was it didn't

1937
01:48:21.800 --> 01:48:24.920
do a lot of new stuff. Yeah, you know, it

1938
01:48:25.000 --> 01:48:26.760
was very very much a remake and it felt like

1939
01:48:26.800 --> 01:48:30.039
a remake, but it was well done. The performances were incredible.

1940
01:48:31.199 --> 01:48:34.079
I'm I'm the worst because like people will say, like

1941
01:48:34.119 --> 01:48:36.359
I love that movie because the cinematography blew me away

1942
01:48:36.399 --> 01:48:38.399
or it was so beautiful look at and I'm like

1943
01:48:38.479 --> 01:48:41.960
it absolutely was. I get bored by that, like really fast.

1944
01:48:42.640 --> 01:48:46.399
Like if everything is like incredibly designed, I'm like wow,

1945
01:48:47.640 --> 01:48:51.199
and then it's just the room, like I like completely.

1946
01:48:51.960 --> 01:48:55.720
Maybe I'm just like so like stupid that aesthetics don't

1947
01:48:55.720 --> 01:48:59.880
get me the way they sometimes get other people. Yeah,

1948
01:49:00.039 --> 01:49:02.720
I don't know. Yeah, I'm a bad person and I

1949
01:49:02.760 --> 01:49:03.199
know it.

1950
01:49:03.439 --> 01:49:05.239
It's okay, is it?

1951
01:49:05.840 --> 01:49:10.880
I don't know, it's probably not okay, right, Like, promise

1952
01:49:11.000 --> 01:49:17.920
me that you'll that you'll you'll help ye sure, You're like,

1953
01:49:17.960 --> 01:49:19.720
oh god, I don't even know what I'm agreeing to,

1954
01:49:19.800 --> 01:49:23.920
but I'm agreeing to it, so all right. Well, but

1955
01:49:23.960 --> 01:49:26.439
that was my horror media. Not a ton of new

1956
01:49:27.000 --> 01:49:31.159
like Christmas horror for this year. Terrifier three came out

1957
01:49:31.199 --> 01:49:32.520
even though it was a Christmas week, it came out

1958
01:49:32.520 --> 01:49:37.079
in October, so it doesn't count. But but this was

1959
01:49:37.119 --> 01:49:41.000
an incredible year for horror movies. Cuckoo was one of

1960
01:49:41.039 --> 01:49:43.760
my favorite horror movies I've seen in a very long time.

1961
01:49:44.880 --> 01:49:48.800
We had Maxine, We had just a ton too much

1962
01:49:48.840 --> 01:49:51.319
to go through. So very good year for seeing horror

1963
01:49:51.319 --> 01:49:56.880
movies in the movie theater. Yeah cool not you know,

1964
01:49:56.920 --> 01:50:00.880
and it was quite a year. So check, Well, do

1965
01:50:00.920 --> 01:50:04.159
you have anything to wrap up this year from reddits?

1966
01:50:05.319 --> 01:50:09.479
Let's see, because I definitely saved a couple of things.

1967
01:50:09.880 --> 01:50:13.720
They weren't very good. Oh okay, I can do this one.

1968
01:50:14.039 --> 01:50:22.119
This one is insane, so huh okay, I'll try. I'll

1969
01:50:22.119 --> 01:50:24.079
try to like recount this because I don't want to

1970
01:50:24.119 --> 01:50:26.039
like just like sit and figure out what it was.

1971
01:50:26.479 --> 01:50:29.920
But anyway, on Glitch on the glitch in the matrix reddits,

1972
01:50:31.119 --> 01:50:33.840
there's this person like so, like, let's say like eight

1973
01:50:33.880 --> 01:50:37.640
months ago, this family lost their remote control for the TV,

1974
01:50:37.800 --> 01:50:40.399
like it's just gone. They looked all over, can't find it.

1975
01:50:40.439 --> 01:50:45.000
They have kids, went somewhere nobody knows, so they I

1976
01:50:45.039 --> 01:50:47.920
think this has happened before. So they were finally just like,

1977
01:50:48.079 --> 01:50:51.199
let's just just they're literally paying for an app on

1978
01:50:51.239 --> 01:50:53.960
their phone to do like a universal remote, and everyone

1979
01:50:54.000 --> 01:50:55.840
in the comments was roasting them and saying like you

1980
01:50:55.880 --> 01:50:57.760
could just get a free one. You don't have to

1981
01:50:57.760 --> 01:50:58.359
pay for it.

1982
01:50:59.159 --> 01:51:04.279
But anyway, that's one of your favorite like sticking points.

1983
01:51:04.600 --> 01:51:08.000
Yeah, no, that's that's like literally what half of the

1984
01:51:08.000 --> 01:51:09.800
comments were like, you know, you don't have to pay

1985
01:51:09.800 --> 01:51:14.720
for them, right. So so she, I guess, is sitting

1986
01:51:14.720 --> 01:51:18.000
on the couch like she had been watching Fluie with

1987
01:51:18.079 --> 01:51:20.720
her kid, but her kid went to bed and she's

1988
01:51:20.720 --> 01:51:23.960
sitting on the couch and she changed the channel, you know,

1989
01:51:24.239 --> 01:51:26.359
because she didn't want to watch Flue anymore. And then

1990
01:51:26.920 --> 01:51:30.039
while she's watching, it keeps flipping back like she's watching

1991
01:51:30.079 --> 01:51:32.560
it and it flips back and she and so she's like, okay,

1992
01:51:32.760 --> 01:51:34.680
what the fuck? Like and then she's like, am I

1993
01:51:34.800 --> 01:51:37.479
sitting on the remote and she picks up the cushion

1994
01:51:37.560 --> 01:51:41.199
and it's there. Now, that would be weird, but you

1995
01:51:41.239 --> 01:51:45.199
can miss a remote. That couch is new, No, that

1996
01:51:45.239 --> 01:51:48.560
couse is only like four months old. So it didn't

1997
01:51:48.560 --> 01:51:53.000
get lost in that couch. How did it get there? Somebody?

1998
01:51:53.199 --> 01:51:55.319
Well the couch, what did you say?

1999
01:51:55.600 --> 01:51:56.720
Somebody probably just put it?

2000
01:51:56.800 --> 01:52:00.359
Oh yeah, the could it have been like up her

2001
01:52:00.399 --> 01:52:02.760
ass for months and she just didn't realize it.

2002
01:52:03.119 --> 01:52:06.479
No, because she'd have some sort of infection if that happened.

2003
01:52:06.520 --> 01:52:09.600
Okay, Okay, that checks out. Yeah. No, that one's really

2004
01:52:09.640 --> 01:52:14.079
weird because I struggle with a remote control loss. I'm

2005
01:52:14.079 --> 01:52:16.840
getting better, but like my tea, I have a Samsung

2006
01:52:16.880 --> 01:52:19.720
and the remote is like so small. It's like this,

2007
01:52:19.880 --> 01:52:23.000
It's like smaller than a candy bar, you know, like

2008
01:52:23.279 --> 01:52:26.279
it's really really tiny, and I'm always worried I'm gonna

2009
01:52:26.319 --> 01:52:27.920
lose it. And one time Rachel was like, you should

2010
01:52:27.960 --> 01:52:30.439
put a air tag on it, and I was like, well,

2011
01:52:30.479 --> 01:52:33.720
the problem is the air tag is wider, oh god,

2012
01:52:34.000 --> 01:52:37.039
thicker than the remote, so it would be really weird.

2013
01:52:37.520 --> 01:52:39.199
Yeah.

2014
01:52:39.279 --> 01:52:43.199
So, but I don't know what's do you have a theory?

2015
01:52:43.520 --> 01:52:45.359
You think just somebody just put it there?

2016
01:52:45.600 --> 01:52:49.199
Yeah? I think their kids, and you know they found

2017
01:52:49.199 --> 01:52:51.199
some one of them like found it under something and

2018
01:52:51.199 --> 01:52:53.199
then was like playing around and it got lost in

2019
01:52:53.239 --> 01:52:53.640
the couch.

2020
01:52:54.239 --> 01:52:57.600
You know. I often tell Rachel that, like, because she

2021
01:52:57.720 --> 01:52:59.840
often is sitting on things that like they aren't even

2022
01:52:59.880 --> 01:53:03.000
there until she sits down, like it's magic. Like I'm like,

2023
01:53:03.000 --> 01:53:05.319
where's the remote? Rachel? Sit here? She says, sound like

2024
01:53:05.359 --> 01:53:06.880
now get up, and I get the run out. I'm

2025
01:53:06.880 --> 01:53:10.199
like thanks. So I don't know that one that one.

2026
01:53:10.319 --> 01:53:13.439
I mean with something as mundane as a remote. But

2027
01:53:13.520 --> 01:53:15.760
also they're so lazy they use the app, like just

2028
01:53:15.800 --> 01:53:18.760
get a new universal remote on Amazon for like eleven dollars.

2029
01:53:18.880 --> 01:53:21.079
Well they're just using the app and paying four dollars

2030
01:53:21.119 --> 01:53:21.960
a month for it.

2031
01:53:21.920 --> 01:53:24.279
So well, okay, they deserve to be roasted if it's

2032
01:53:24.279 --> 01:53:29.680
a monthly Yeah. Yeah, yeah, I don't know that one's

2033
01:53:29.720 --> 01:53:32.600
sad you hurt me? Is there anymore? Or is that

2034
01:53:32.640 --> 01:53:33.199
the best you got?

2035
01:53:33.319 --> 01:53:35.720
That's the best I got? There really wasn't very much.

2036
01:53:35.960 --> 01:53:38.800
Yeah, that's fair, that's fair. The matrix is learning and

2037
01:53:38.840 --> 01:53:41.840
it's not glitching as much. Yeah, which is good but

2038
01:53:41.920 --> 01:53:42.720
also worrisome.

2039
01:53:43.640 --> 01:53:44.640
It's probably fine.

2040
01:53:45.239 --> 01:53:51.079
Well, I guess we'll wrap this up, so I will say, Uh,

2041
01:53:51.760 --> 01:53:55.479
it's been a it was a really tumultuous year, and

2042
01:53:55.600 --> 01:53:58.800
I'm very grateful to everybody who has been around for me,

2043
01:53:59.359 --> 01:54:02.880
who's been to me, as I've needed a lot of

2044
01:54:02.960 --> 01:54:06.920
kindness in a lot of different directions this year. I've

2045
01:54:06.920 --> 01:54:10.239
needed kindness while I grieve. I've needed kindness while I recover,

2046
01:54:10.359 --> 01:54:14.000
while I heal, while I am selfish. I've needed a

2047
01:54:14.000 --> 01:54:15.880
lot of kindness. Why are you making that face? Cell?

2048
01:54:17.680 --> 01:54:22.760
You're totally making a face. Okay, fine, I deserve that face,

2049
01:54:22.800 --> 01:54:25.880
You're right, but no, I really so I want to

2050
01:54:25.920 --> 01:54:27.399
say thank you to all the people who have been

2051
01:54:27.439 --> 01:54:29.800
listening and writing in and saying kind things, and to

2052
01:54:29.880 --> 01:54:34.640
my friends like Michelle, who you know, I was. I

2053
01:54:34.720 --> 01:54:37.760
was really struggling with just having a very dark holiday,

2054
01:54:39.079 --> 01:54:41.159
and getting to spend a couple of days with you

2055
01:54:41.199 --> 01:54:44.479
really turned a lot of my mind around, and not

2056
01:54:44.680 --> 01:54:46.520
just because you're a good friend, but also because you're

2057
01:54:46.560 --> 01:54:49.920
a great friend and you had really great conversations with

2058
01:54:49.960 --> 01:54:54.239
me in between ranting and raving about banana fish, which

2059
01:54:54.279 --> 01:54:58.520
was fun, you know, telling me you were just being

2060
01:54:58.520 --> 01:55:00.960
a good friend, and I'm really grateful for you. I'm

2061
01:55:00.960 --> 01:55:05.760
looking forward to a new year, doing this podcast and

2062
01:55:06.600 --> 01:55:08.720
just kind of seeing what comes next, because this year

2063
01:55:08.880 --> 01:55:13.359
was all change. Every goddamn week. It feels like there

2064
01:55:13.439 --> 01:55:15.119
was a massive change to my life.

2065
01:55:15.399 --> 01:55:15.800
Yeah.

2066
01:55:15.960 --> 01:55:19.159
Yeah, so I'm looking forward to seeing how it all settles,

2067
01:55:20.600 --> 01:55:24.239
I guess, And I'm looking forward to you writing more

2068
01:55:24.239 --> 01:55:25.399

2069
01:55:25.680 --> 01:55:29.199

Not really, anytime I.

2084
01:56:08.239 --> 01:56:13.319
Guess anything about the year, about your resolution, anything like that.

2085
01:56:13.479 --> 01:56:17.039
I don't have any resolutions because everything sucks and it's

2086
01:56:17.079 --> 01:56:18.039
just gonna get worse.

2087
01:56:18.880 --> 01:56:20.800
So your resolution is that things will get worse.

2088
01:56:21.239 --> 01:56:23.119
No, that's just reality.

2089
01:56:25.720 --> 01:56:32.000
You seem awfully cocky about you being right. Yeah, it's okay.

2090
01:56:32.039 --> 01:56:34.319
It's good to have that kind of confidence in yourself. Oh,

2091
01:56:34.800 --> 01:56:40.720
to be like I'm right. No, Well tell, I'll see

2092
01:56:40.760 --> 01:56:45.199
you next year. Okay, we're gonna do this show next month,

2094
01:56:48.000 --> 01:56:50.000

2095
01:56:50.000 --> 01:56:52.560
for the weekly spooky Proper episode where I might cry.

2096
01:56:52.840 --> 01:56:55.079
You never know. You'll have to be subscribed to find out.

2097
