00:00:00.680 --> 00:00:05.480
The evil Truth of the Pied Piper, seventy seven headless
2
00:00:05.480 --> 00:00:10.080
skeletons found in a mass gray ghost children haunting a
3
00:00:10.119 --> 00:00:13.560
city in Argentina, And how on earth do you lose
4
00:00:13.599 --> 00:00:19.000
a giraffe in Texas? Get comfortable, turn off the life.
5
00:00:20.519 --> 00:00:31.839
It's Monthly Spooky. Welcome back, my spookies. It is indeed
6
00:00:32.600 --> 00:00:33.159
you want to say it?
7
00:00:33.200 --> 00:00:34.679
Cell No, it's okay.
8
00:00:35.320 --> 00:00:42.280
Oh that time of the month. It's time for Monthly Spooky.
9
00:00:43.240 --> 00:00:46.079
And of course I'm your host, Enrique Kuto here with
10
00:00:46.159 --> 00:00:50.240
my good buddy and co host Michelle. Michelle, how are you?
11
00:00:52.880 --> 00:00:53.359
What was that?
12
00:00:53.799 --> 00:00:56.960
I don't know, I'm not like good or something.
13
00:00:57.359 --> 00:00:59.600
Is this because of the mosaic? Because you cut yourself
14
00:00:59.600 --> 00:01:01.000
making a I.
15
00:01:00.920 --> 00:01:04.000
Cut myself like four times making the mosaic. It's not
16
00:01:04.079 --> 00:01:06.239
that big of a deal one day or just in
17
00:01:06.400 --> 00:01:09.400
or total in making it total in this part of
18
00:01:09.439 --> 00:01:13.359
the mosaic. But one day I cut myself twice. But
19
00:01:13.359 --> 00:01:16.079
but to be fair, once it was on the mosaic,
20
00:01:16.120 --> 00:01:17.760
and then I had a bandit down my hand, so
21
00:01:17.799 --> 00:01:20.480
I was like kind of clumsy, and then I cut
22
00:01:20.519 --> 00:01:23.280
my other finger on the same hand trying to lock
23
00:01:23.439 --> 00:01:26.000
my basement door. I got it like jammed in the.
24
00:01:25.959 --> 00:01:29.599
Dead bolt, so okay, and.
25
00:01:29.599 --> 00:01:34.640
I spilled water that had you know, uh were out
26
00:01:34.719 --> 00:01:37.439
in it all over myself instead of the sink, just
27
00:01:37.480 --> 00:01:43.040
like down my body because it was really heavy and
28
00:01:43.079 --> 00:01:45.040
the sink is high up and I just mixed.
29
00:01:45.799 --> 00:01:47.680
Okay, that's see. That makes more sense than if it
30
00:01:47.959 --> 00:01:50.760
like when you first described it. I imagine like a cup,
31
00:01:51.400 --> 00:01:53.480
like a small like drinking cup worth and you just
32
00:01:53.519 --> 00:01:56.959
went wah, it just hit you instead of the sink somehow. No,
33
00:01:57.040 --> 00:02:01.319
it makes a lot more sense when it's a big bucket. Yeah, okay, yeah, wow,
34
00:02:01.400 --> 00:02:04.120
no wonder. You were just nodding politely when I was like,
35
00:02:04.120 --> 00:02:06.560
oh my morning, McDonald's messed up my order and then
36
00:02:06.599 --> 00:02:08.360
I was running late for this, and you're just like,
37
00:02:08.520 --> 00:02:09.840
I've been through hell.
38
00:02:11.439 --> 00:02:13.599
Those are the good things that happened.
39
00:02:13.639 --> 00:02:16.000
Okay, what are the bad things?
40
00:02:16.159 --> 00:02:21.199
I don't know. Gigs that are teeth removed people just
41
00:02:21.319 --> 00:02:23.639
one of them and one fell out magically and we
42
00:02:23.719 --> 00:02:27.280
don't know how they're just gone. They were like there
43
00:02:27.400 --> 00:02:30.520
used to be five teeth and now there's four. We
44
00:02:30.560 --> 00:02:33.000
don't know which one because they're so messed up.
45
00:02:33.400 --> 00:02:38.159
Things so so so gigs had one tooth removed, but
46
00:02:38.280 --> 00:02:39.439
another one came out.
47
00:02:39.319 --> 00:02:43.039
On its own, but not not then, just some point,
48
00:02:44.199 --> 00:02:46.400
just in the last point couple of years.
49
00:02:46.599 --> 00:02:49.400
Yeah, that happens.
50
00:02:49.400 --> 00:02:51.159
Well, it's not supposed to.
51
00:02:52.479 --> 00:02:55.759
Well, I mean, I wouldn't say it's supposed to, but
52
00:02:55.840 --> 00:02:58.319
it does. I mean, that is just a thing that happens.
53
00:02:58.439 --> 00:03:02.360
You get older and you know, animals, people, we lose
54
00:03:02.400 --> 00:03:04.639
teeth just.
55
00:03:04.120 --> 00:03:06.599
Just all of a sudden, and the little tiny ones
56
00:03:07.120 --> 00:03:08.319
that are all messed up at the.
57
00:03:08.319 --> 00:03:15.680
Bottom, especially the little tiny ones. Oh, just saying when
58
00:03:16.159 --> 00:03:19.240
I had dogs, those were the teeth that got removed
59
00:03:19.240 --> 00:03:21.240
the most, for those little tiny ones at the bottom.
60
00:03:21.599 --> 00:03:21.840
M hm.
61
00:03:22.560 --> 00:03:24.560
And I mean they know we only had to remove
62
00:03:24.560 --> 00:03:25.960
a few, but like, yeah, those would be the ones
63
00:03:26.000 --> 00:03:26.639
that have to come out.
64
00:03:27.159 --> 00:03:30.919
Well, normally she uses she loses the big ones.
65
00:03:32.240 --> 00:03:34.280
I'm glad she's not losing any more big ones.
66
00:03:34.400 --> 00:03:37.080
Well she did. Well, there's one more big one that
67
00:03:37.120 --> 00:03:38.479
she's eventually gonna lose.
68
00:03:38.879 --> 00:03:42.280
So okay, fine, geez.
69
00:03:42.439 --> 00:03:43.439
So it's been rough.
70
00:03:44.919 --> 00:03:46.639
I mean, how's gigs that feel about it? Though?
71
00:03:47.280 --> 00:03:48.759
I'm sure she didn't enjoy it.
72
00:03:49.800 --> 00:03:51.120
You don't know that, did you? Ask?
73
00:03:52.639 --> 00:03:54.960
No? Because I didn't want to upset her. Anymore, because
74
00:03:54.960 --> 00:03:57.080
sometimes I ask and then she goes on for like
75
00:03:57.240 --> 00:04:02.759
five hours. So no, not, okay, not again?
76
00:04:03.199 --> 00:04:05.800
Okay, Is there are there any more grievances you need
77
00:04:05.840 --> 00:04:09.439
to air about the last few days or week or
78
00:04:09.479 --> 00:04:12.039
whatever span of time this has all occurred.
79
00:04:12.360 --> 00:04:16.600
I had two really bad inspections and then also Banana
80
00:04:16.639 --> 00:04:20.160
Fish is getting taken off Amazon Prime, so there you go.
81
00:04:20.240 --> 00:04:24.360
Oh my gosh, well, I mean the home inspections that
82
00:04:24.360 --> 00:04:26.600
that was pretty lame. I'm assuming you're talking about the
83
00:04:26.600 --> 00:04:31.519
ones I, uh, they've talked to me about while banana
84
00:04:31.560 --> 00:04:33.079
Fish is leaving Prime.
85
00:04:33.000 --> 00:04:34.000
In ten days?
86
00:04:34.360 --> 00:04:36.759
In ten days, do they have any idea where it's
87
00:04:36.759 --> 00:04:37.120
going to go?
88
00:04:37.879 --> 00:04:40.759
I don't. I just know it's leaving Prime, and so
89
00:04:40.920 --> 00:04:43.560
do the reddit people. So you know, I haven't really
90
00:04:43.560 --> 00:04:44.720
looked into it more than that.
91
00:04:45.519 --> 00:04:48.120
Well, if the reddit people said it, then it has
92
00:04:48.199 --> 00:04:48.879
to be true.
93
00:04:48.959 --> 00:04:50.879
Well considering, I was like, I don't know if this
94
00:04:50.959 --> 00:04:53.079
is true. So then I checked on Prime and it
95
00:04:53.199 --> 00:04:53.680
was true.
96
00:04:54.120 --> 00:04:55.920
Oh, they have a little ticker things.
97
00:04:57.120 --> 00:04:58.319
In ten days. Yeah.
98
00:04:58.480 --> 00:05:02.399
Oh you're afraid it's gonna go away forever? I mean,
99
00:05:02.399 --> 00:05:03.920
don't you don't have any copies?
100
00:05:04.920 --> 00:05:09.720
There's well, there's not an official uh subtitled or subtitled
101
00:05:09.879 --> 00:05:11.040
copy that was released.
102
00:05:11.439 --> 00:05:11.920
Oh really?
103
00:05:12.199 --> 00:05:14.120
Yeah? So, I mean the only way for me to
104
00:05:14.120 --> 00:05:16.959
get it would either to be either get it in Japanese,
105
00:05:17.079 --> 00:05:23.240
which I may already have, or to pirate it, which
106
00:05:23.279 --> 00:05:24.920
I may already have but probably not.
107
00:05:25.759 --> 00:05:30.879
So Okay, Well, I feel bad for you.
108
00:05:31.480 --> 00:05:34.360
Thanks. This was this, This happened just last night, so
109
00:05:34.519 --> 00:05:36.079
I'm still a little upset.
110
00:05:36.439 --> 00:05:36.920
I'm sorry.
111
00:05:36.959 --> 00:05:39.879
I could tell you can just go on. Stop to
112
00:05:40.000 --> 00:05:40.839
talk about.
113
00:05:40.680 --> 00:05:43.920
Talk amongst yourselves, so much talk amongst yourselves.
114
00:05:44.000 --> 00:05:45.240
None of this is important.
115
00:05:46.079 --> 00:05:49.160
Well, I mean, it's monthly spooky. We're just you know,
116
00:05:49.199 --> 00:05:51.879
we're catching up with everybody before we talk about like
117
00:05:52.000 --> 00:05:58.079
ghost children and giant cockroaches or whatever I have lined up.
118
00:05:59.720 --> 00:06:02.360
I don't remember if it was a giant cockroacher or
119
00:06:02.439 --> 00:06:04.120
a person selling cockroaches.
120
00:06:04.639 --> 00:06:06.839
I hope it's a giant cockroach me.
121
00:06:06.879 --> 00:06:09.639
Too, But now I think it's probably a person selling cockroaches.
122
00:06:09.720 --> 00:06:11.199
I want to guess that's okay.
123
00:06:11.759 --> 00:06:13.600
I mean I don't think it is, though I think it.
124
00:06:13.759 --> 00:06:17.439
I think the guy got arrested. Oh man, why we'll
125
00:06:17.439 --> 00:06:19.720
have to This is a great tease. We'll find out
126
00:06:19.839 --> 00:06:23.480
later because it's in the list of stories recovering this month.
127
00:06:25.360 --> 00:06:28.920
For me, see, I'm I'm not all stressed out because,
128
00:06:29.000 --> 00:06:32.879
unlike you, I've been dunking myself in frigid water every day.
129
00:06:33.600 --> 00:06:36.000
Sure I have.
130
00:06:36.959 --> 00:06:37.680
I believe you.
131
00:06:38.879 --> 00:06:44.680
Okay, I think it's upsetting. Well, I mean that is
132
00:06:44.759 --> 00:06:46.720
kind of the point, is is it like gives you
133
00:06:46.759 --> 00:06:53.759
a little shock? Yeah, it's okay. I was in the
134
00:06:54.040 --> 00:06:57.800
ice tub the other day and Rachel was passing by
135
00:06:57.839 --> 00:06:59.839
to go into the house, and I told her to
136
00:06:59.839 --> 00:07:01.560
put her hand in for a second. She didn't. She
137
00:07:01.600 --> 00:07:03.879
was like, oh my god, it's so cold. I was like,
138
00:07:03.920 --> 00:07:06.639
it's not even that cold. It's forty five degrees.
139
00:07:06.959 --> 00:07:07.839
That's cold.
140
00:07:08.079 --> 00:07:10.120
I mean, I'm not saying it's not cold, it's just
141
00:07:10.160 --> 00:07:12.120
it's not that cold. I mean it is when you
142
00:07:12.240 --> 00:07:15.439
dunk your whole body in it, But for just your hand,
143
00:07:15.920 --> 00:07:23.959
it's fine. Everybody's wimpy, I don't think so. I'm sorry.
144
00:07:24.079 --> 00:07:26.480
You know, cold showers just weren't getting it done anymore.
145
00:07:26.480 --> 00:07:31.600
I had to go, I had to go even further. So.
146
00:07:32.120 --> 00:07:34.240
But boy, when you come out of that thing, you feel,
147
00:07:34.480 --> 00:07:38.399
you feel positive, you feel happy and happy. Go luck.
148
00:07:38.439 --> 00:07:40.759
You had ready to take on your day I tell
149
00:07:40.759 --> 00:07:46.279
you that much. Okay, what you think you would just cry?
150
00:07:46.839 --> 00:07:47.480
Yeah?
151
00:07:47.720 --> 00:07:50.480
Yeah, but that's good too because that releases cord, is
152
00:07:50.519 --> 00:07:58.800
all right maybe, I mean, all right, fine, I'm just
153
00:07:58.839 --> 00:08:01.319
saying I like it, I know, and.
154
00:08:01.319 --> 00:08:03.800
I'm happy for you. I guess.
155
00:08:04.439 --> 00:08:07.040
The other interesting thing that's been going on is my
156
00:08:07.279 --> 00:08:12.040
TikTok is like it's not like exploding obscenely, but it's
157
00:08:12.079 --> 00:08:16.560
growing at a really fast rate. I'm gaining about seventy
158
00:08:16.600 --> 00:08:20.680
or eighty followers a day. Wow. Yeah, like I have
159
00:08:20.759 --> 00:08:24.160
doubled the followers. I doubled my followers in like two
160
00:08:24.160 --> 00:08:28.720
and a half weeks. It's really odd. And what I
161
00:08:28.839 --> 00:08:33.080
did was I do these little tiktoks about folklore and
162
00:08:33.559 --> 00:08:38.840
you know, stuff I'm into obviously, and I did a
163
00:08:38.879 --> 00:08:43.840
couple about Dayton, Ohio, like folklore and legends and urban
164
00:08:43.960 --> 00:08:48.080
legends and stuff, and it's just feeding that to people
165
00:08:48.200 --> 00:08:51.559
that are in the Dayton area. The algorithm is feeding
166
00:08:51.559 --> 00:08:53.840
it and people are following like crazy. So I've been
167
00:08:53.879 --> 00:08:57.039
doing only Dayton stuff, which turns out there's quite a bit,
168
00:08:57.919 --> 00:09:00.799
and people just keep commenting like, oh, but what about
169
00:09:00.799 --> 00:09:03.639
this road or what about this bridge? So then I'm like, oh,
170
00:09:03.679 --> 00:09:05.320
I'll go follow up on all of them. Then.
171
00:09:05.679 --> 00:09:06.399
Yeah.
172
00:09:06.600 --> 00:09:09.200
So it's been pretty cool other than the fact that
173
00:09:09.240 --> 00:09:11.840
it is TikTok and I've never enjoyed being on TikTok
174
00:09:11.919 --> 00:09:16.559
particularly and uh, but my favorite thing is I'll say,
175
00:09:16.600 --> 00:09:19.200
like in a video, I'll say, like, in a town
176
00:09:19.559 --> 00:09:23.679
outside of Dayton, Ohio, there's a road that's haunted, you
177
00:09:23.720 --> 00:09:27.120
know or whatever, and and people literally common go, it's
178
00:09:27.120 --> 00:09:29.559
not in Dayton, it's in Carlisle. And I'm like, yeah,
179
00:09:29.759 --> 00:09:32.840
that's outside of Dayton, Ohio. And then and then uh,
180
00:09:32.960 --> 00:09:34.960
or I said, like on a road near Dayton, Ohio,
181
00:09:34.919 --> 00:09:37.159
and so we said, it's not near Dayton. And then
182
00:09:37.320 --> 00:09:39.600
somebody before I even comment, somebody's like, uh, it's twenty
183
00:09:39.600 --> 00:09:42.399
minutes from me, and I live in that place, and
184
00:09:42.440 --> 00:09:44.000
I go, when I go to date, it takes twenty minutes.
185
00:09:44.000 --> 00:09:46.679
And somebody's like, it's really closer to Middletown.
186
00:09:47.120 --> 00:09:50.720
What geez and Middletown.
187
00:09:51.240 --> 00:09:51.559
Yeah.
188
00:09:51.679 --> 00:09:51.919
Yeah.
189
00:09:52.080 --> 00:09:54.320
But it's also funny because like Middletown is a town
190
00:09:55.159 --> 00:09:58.639
halfway between Dayton and Cincinnati. So people aren't going to
191
00:09:58.720 --> 00:10:02.360
generally relate middle town. They're going to relate the major cities, right,
192
00:10:02.399 --> 00:10:06.159
So if you say someplace is near Dayton, Ohio. That's
193
00:10:06.159 --> 00:10:09.320
suggesting it's closer to Dayton than it is to Cincinnati
194
00:10:09.399 --> 00:10:12.480
or Columbus. That's really all you're saying is that it's
195
00:10:12.519 --> 00:10:15.799
the largest major city in Ohio to it. But it's
196
00:10:15.840 --> 00:10:17.639
been funny that that is like the thing people are
197
00:10:17.639 --> 00:10:19.799
constantly saying, like, that's not where it is, that's not
198
00:10:19.840 --> 00:10:22.240
where it is. And then one of my favorites was
199
00:10:22.279 --> 00:10:23.759
I talked about some haunted road. I think it was
200
00:10:23.759 --> 00:10:26.080
Foigny Road, and some guy was like, uh, I live
201
00:10:26.120 --> 00:10:28.320
in that town and I've never heard of it and
202
00:10:28.360 --> 00:10:30.879
I don't even know where that is, so like is
203
00:10:30.919 --> 00:10:33.559
this real? Like does this even exist? And I had
204
00:10:33.559 --> 00:10:34.759
to comment. I was like, dude, I'm not trying to
205
00:10:34.759 --> 00:10:36.840
be rude, but like I googled it and found where
206
00:10:36.840 --> 00:10:40.080
the road was immediately like you yeah, look like what
207
00:10:40.440 --> 00:10:42.240
do you needing to tell you? Like which McDonald's you
208
00:10:42.279 --> 00:10:43.879
turn left at to get to it? Like, I don't
209
00:10:43.879 --> 00:10:45.039
know what you want from me? Pal.
210
00:10:45.360 --> 00:10:46.720
Yeah.
211
00:10:46.879 --> 00:10:49.080
So but at least the mean people have eased up.
212
00:10:49.120 --> 00:10:51.360
There were some mean people, but my favorite is people
213
00:10:51.360 --> 00:10:56.440
think I'm ai, which I guess I'll take as flattering
214
00:10:56.480 --> 00:10:59.360
because my picture quality is very high and my audio
215
00:10:59.440 --> 00:11:02.200
quality is very high. And I think that's exactly why
216
00:11:02.240 --> 00:11:03.879
I think it's AI is because I use like a
217
00:11:03.879 --> 00:11:07.879
really high end microphone and I EQ my voice really well,
218
00:11:07.919 --> 00:11:11.000
so it sounds like a voiceover. I think that alone
219
00:11:11.159 --> 00:11:16.080
throws them. So but when people say, like, dude, I
220
00:11:16.159 --> 00:11:18.240
know this is AI, stop and then I come and go,
221
00:11:18.559 --> 00:11:21.240
you know too much, and then like a gift with
222
00:11:21.320 --> 00:11:24.399
like a robot on it or something. But anyway, so
223
00:11:24.440 --> 00:11:29.080
that's been an adventure. If anybody listening to this discovered
224
00:11:29.080 --> 00:11:32.679
the podcast through TikTok, wonderful, because that's my only goal
225
00:11:33.080 --> 00:11:37.480
is to funnel TikTokers to check out the podcast. It
226
00:11:37.559 --> 00:11:39.039
is funny too because people will comment and be like,
227
00:11:39.080 --> 00:11:41.559
I could listen to your voice all night to fall asleep,
228
00:11:41.559 --> 00:11:44.759
and I'm like, well, don't listen here where it's sixty seconds.
229
00:11:45.000 --> 00:11:48.519
Ye go to weekly Spooky for the love of God,
230
00:11:48.879 --> 00:11:51.960
for the love of all that's holy and none holy. Probably,
231
00:11:52.360 --> 00:11:55.039
but I have been shocked at the sheer amount of
232
00:11:55.759 --> 00:11:58.840
folklore in and around this area. I was not prepared
233
00:11:58.840 --> 00:12:02.480
for it to be that much. Yeah, like in Germantown, Ohio,
234
00:12:02.559 --> 00:12:04.679
which is not far away at all unless you ask
235
00:12:04.679 --> 00:12:06.720
these people. They're like, it's nowhere in your dayton. My
236
00:12:06.759 --> 00:12:09.039
mom grew up in Germantown. It's fifteen minutes away from me.
237
00:12:10.600 --> 00:12:14.720
But uh, they have the Butter Street Monster. WHOA what
238
00:12:14.840 --> 00:12:15.240
a name?
239
00:12:16.240 --> 00:12:18.639
Like is the street called Butter Street or is it
240
00:12:18.799 --> 00:12:19.919
really Buttery Street?
241
00:12:20.080 --> 00:12:21.799
Or I wish it was a Buttery Street. Now the
242
00:12:21.840 --> 00:12:26.440
street's called Butter Street. But apparently there were a bunch
243
00:12:26.480 --> 00:12:28.480
of people in the sixties and seventies who claimed they
244
00:12:28.519 --> 00:12:33.399
saw like a sasquatch looking creature on Butter Street. But
245
00:12:33.480 --> 00:12:35.440
then some people commented and said that in the nineties
246
00:12:35.440 --> 00:12:37.639
when they were growing up, their grandma used to tell
247
00:12:37.639 --> 00:12:39.440
them stories about the Butter Street Monster and they thought
248
00:12:39.440 --> 00:12:40.440
it was a giant snake.
249
00:12:41.080 --> 00:12:41.759
Oh.
250
00:12:41.799 --> 00:12:44.039
I just love how that happens, though, like how the
251
00:12:44.039 --> 00:12:45.600
folks were. And then some people be like, I've lived
252
00:12:45.639 --> 00:12:47.519
in Germantown for forty five years and I've never heard
253
00:12:47.559 --> 00:12:49.879
of this, And I'm like, that's what's so fascinating. I
254
00:12:49.919 --> 00:12:52.080
wish they'd stop acting like that means it doesn't exist.
255
00:12:52.279 --> 00:12:55.360
I mean the worst perst too. The videos aren't like, hey,
256
00:12:55.399 --> 00:12:57.799
this really happened, they're hey, people talk about this and
257
00:12:57.799 --> 00:12:59.720
then somebody says bullshit, and I have to go no, Like,
258
00:12:59.759 --> 00:13:02.639
look at the comments. People are literally saying like, oh yeah,
259
00:13:02.639 --> 00:13:05.480
we used to, you know, on sleepovers, we would sneak
260
00:13:05.480 --> 00:13:08.200
out to butter Street and like look around, and you know,
261
00:13:08.279 --> 00:13:13.080
it's like it's funny how that works. But on that note,
262
00:13:13.080 --> 00:13:14.960
we're going to take a quick break and when we
263
00:13:15.039 --> 00:13:24.360
get back, we're going to talk all about some spooky news.
264
00:13:28.399 --> 00:13:32.639
We're back, and Chell, I suppose it is time for
265
00:13:32.799 --> 00:13:37.559
the spooky news, the spooky news. So I have a
266
00:13:37.600 --> 00:13:45.120
question for you, Michelle, Yes, how many headless skeletons is
267
00:13:45.159 --> 00:13:49.960
too many? Like, if you discovered headless skeletons, how many
268
00:13:50.000 --> 00:13:52.519
would be the amount that you would be like, oh shit.
269
00:13:54.879 --> 00:13:55.720
I think five?
270
00:13:56.679 --> 00:13:57.000
Five?
271
00:13:57.519 --> 00:13:59.799
Yeah, because I think anything lower than five. I could
272
00:14:00.080 --> 00:14:02.039
only figure out a reason that it would make sense
273
00:14:02.080 --> 00:14:04.240
that there'd be a bunch of headless skeletons.
274
00:14:04.519 --> 00:14:10.000
Okay, no, that sound unfortunately, this one is gonna be
275
00:14:10.039 --> 00:14:15.120
a lot for you. Then, like six from people dot com,
276
00:14:15.240 --> 00:14:19.039
archaeologists found a seven thousand year old mass grave filled
277
00:14:19.080 --> 00:14:24.759
with seventy seven headless skeletons and they still don't know why.
278
00:14:25.480 --> 00:14:27.720
Well, I assume they buried the heads somewhere else.
279
00:14:28.279 --> 00:14:30.679
I mean that would be I hope so, because otherwise,
280
00:14:30.679 --> 00:14:31.960
what are you doing with the I don't want to
281
00:14:32.000 --> 00:14:33.320
know what you're doing with them heads.
282
00:14:33.720 --> 00:14:36.720
Maybe maybe they just didn't have heads, Maybe they just
283
00:14:36.759 --> 00:14:39.559
had some kind of congenital defect where they have heads?
284
00:14:39.919 --> 00:14:45.240
Is that a thing? Maybe I feel like it very necessary?
285
00:14:45.679 --> 00:14:48.240
Maybe existence, Maybe we're just wrong.
286
00:14:48.679 --> 00:14:56.159
Okay, I mean, maybe maybe we need to reconsider our prejudices. Okay,
287
00:14:56.320 --> 00:14:57.360
now I can respect that.
288
00:14:57.919 --> 00:14:58.240
Good.
289
00:14:59.399 --> 00:15:06.200
Good. Archaeologists studying a seven thousand year old settlement in
290
00:15:06.279 --> 00:15:10.279
present day Slovakia expected to learn more about how some
291
00:15:10.320 --> 00:15:15.159
of Europe's earliest farming communities lived. Instead, they uncovered a
292
00:15:15.200 --> 00:15:19.279
mystery they're still trying to explain. Buried in a ditch
293
00:15:19.360 --> 00:15:22.200
near the settlement, where the remains of seventy eight people,
294
00:15:22.679 --> 00:15:27.320
but all but all but one were missing their heads.
295
00:15:27.799 --> 00:15:29.279
There was one person with a head.
296
00:15:29.639 --> 00:15:31.759
What did that one person do with all the other
297
00:15:31.799 --> 00:15:32.840
people's heads?
298
00:15:33.440 --> 00:15:35.399
I like how you're like, that's what brings the most.
299
00:15:35.559 --> 00:15:37.360
I kind of agree with you. That's what brings the most.
300
00:15:37.440 --> 00:15:40.480
Question is, okay, well, we've established a pattern of seventy
301
00:15:40.519 --> 00:15:44.200
seven headless corpses. Why is there one with a head?
302
00:15:44.519 --> 00:15:45.080
Yeah?
303
00:15:45.240 --> 00:15:48.519
Yeah, yeah, like was the person doing it? Just they
304
00:15:48.519 --> 00:15:50.720
get lazy, They're like, I'm tired of this. I just
305
00:15:50.720 --> 00:15:51.320
want to go home.
306
00:15:51.519 --> 00:15:53.240
Yeah. Oh, we don't need to take this guy's heat off.
307
00:15:53.360 --> 00:15:57.000
Is that worth it? The discovery, detailed in a recent
308
00:15:57.080 --> 00:16:01.120
study published in Proceedings of the Prehistoric Society, was made
309
00:16:01.120 --> 00:16:04.559
at Vrabel, one of the largest known Neolithic settlements in
310
00:16:04.639 --> 00:16:09.120
Central Europe. Researchers say the unusual burial site offers a
311
00:16:09.200 --> 00:16:12.919
rare glimpse into how some early farming communities may have
312
00:16:13.000 --> 00:16:18.200
viewed death and the human body. At first glance, the
313
00:16:18.240 --> 00:16:24.480
scene appears to suggest violence. I mean, I mean, is
314
00:16:24.519 --> 00:16:28.679
there such thing as like a non violent decapitation. I mean,
315
00:16:28.840 --> 00:16:31.799
if if you were dalking, like you're like duh, yeah,
316
00:16:31.919 --> 00:16:32.600
I mean come.
317
00:16:32.440 --> 00:16:34.840
On, no, I don't know. I don't know if you can,
318
00:16:34.919 --> 00:16:37.240
if you can consider violence if it was post mortem,
319
00:16:37.480 --> 00:16:38.200
like if they're just.
320
00:16:38.279 --> 00:16:41.480
I see, yeah, I feel like it still feels like
321
00:16:41.519 --> 00:16:43.759
a violent act, just because like it's not like cutting
322
00:16:43.759 --> 00:16:45.840
off ahead of something you can do as easily as like,
323
00:16:46.519 --> 00:16:55.159
you know, enjoying a Twizzler's pull and peel. I like
324
00:16:55.200 --> 00:16:57.279
Twizzler's pool and peel. Are you down with the pool
325
00:16:57.320 --> 00:16:57.679
and peel?
326
00:16:58.080 --> 00:17:02.200
I like them, but also I don't think they have
327
00:17:02.279 --> 00:17:05.759
as good like teeth, mouthfeel as like a regular Twizzler.
328
00:17:06.119 --> 00:17:08.480
Oh, they're definitely different. They're not that they don't scratch
329
00:17:08.559 --> 00:17:12.240
the same itch. They're They're two different candies without a doubt.
330
00:17:13.160 --> 00:17:16.240
I do enjoy braiding the pull in peel if you
331
00:17:16.279 --> 00:17:17.480
don't braid them and then.
332
00:17:17.319 --> 00:17:20.319
Eat them, Yeah, yeah, that's the best way to do it.
333
00:17:22.960 --> 00:17:26.480
The bodies were found piled together in different positions with
334
00:17:26.640 --> 00:17:31.839
no obvious order, but after examining the remains, researchers concluded
335
00:17:31.920 --> 00:17:37.880
the evidence does not clearly point to a massacre. Instead,
336
00:17:38.279 --> 00:17:41.559
marks on the neck bones suggest the skulls were carefully
337
00:17:41.599 --> 00:17:49.519
removed like a Twizzler's pulling po No, uh, carefully removed
338
00:17:49.559 --> 00:17:54.359
after death using sharp tools. The research, I mean, they'd
339
00:17:54.400 --> 00:17:57.480
have to be sharp. I would guess if.
340
00:17:57.400 --> 00:17:59.559
It's going to be careful, Yeah, yeah.
341
00:17:59.640 --> 00:18:03.279
Yeah, I mean if they were already skeletons, I guess
342
00:18:03.279 --> 00:18:05.880
you could use like blunt instruments. But like I'm guessing
343
00:18:05.960 --> 00:18:09.279
these were corpses when they would beheaded, would like skin
344
00:18:09.359 --> 00:18:11.720
and things with skin and such. Yeah.
345
00:18:11.799 --> 00:18:13.319
Yeah.
346
00:18:13.440 --> 00:18:16.880
The Researchers also found that many of the skeletons remained
347
00:18:16.960 --> 00:18:21.079
largely intact, including fragile joints that likely would not have
348
00:18:21.119 --> 00:18:25.279
survived if the bodies had been left exposed for long periods.
349
00:18:26.119 --> 00:18:30.160
Uh oh, the plot's about to thicken. Shell. Really, only
350
00:18:30.279 --> 00:18:36.039
one individual, a child, was found with a skull still attached.
351
00:18:37.200 --> 00:18:40.359
Okay, I'm sticking to my theory. This child did it
352
00:18:41.079 --> 00:18:44.359
and then yeah, took off their heads.
353
00:18:43.599 --> 00:18:45.559
Like one of those super genius children from like the
354
00:18:45.599 --> 00:18:46.680
Twilight Zone or something.
355
00:18:46.920 --> 00:18:48.920
Yeah. Yeah, the cornfields.
356
00:18:49.000 --> 00:18:54.759
Yeah, where the missing heads went remains one of the
357
00:18:54.759 --> 00:18:58.200
site's biggest mysteries. I mean, that's not that hard. Just
358
00:18:58.240 --> 00:19:00.440
call around and be like, you know, hey, Yuri, did
359
00:19:00.480 --> 00:19:03.240
you find seventy seven heads? And they're like, oh, yeah,
360
00:19:03.799 --> 00:19:06.640
down the road like eighty four miles we filled seventy
361
00:19:06.640 --> 00:19:10.759
seven heads. It's like, ah, I think I figured it out.
362
00:19:11.319 --> 00:19:11.960
There you go.
363
00:19:13.839 --> 00:19:17.440
Archaeologists recovered only a handful of skull fragments from the ditch,
364
00:19:17.759 --> 00:19:20.759
leading some researchers to wonder whether the skulls were taken
365
00:19:20.799 --> 00:19:25.119
elsewhere as part of a ritual practice. Well, it sure
366
00:19:25.200 --> 00:19:28.519
sounds ritualistic if they did it. Seventy seven times.
367
00:19:29.319 --> 00:19:30.079
Maybe.
368
00:19:30.480 --> 00:19:32.839
I mean, I mean, do you feel like it's not
369
00:19:32.920 --> 00:19:35.559
like a lark when you do something seventy seven times?
370
00:19:36.160 --> 00:19:38.119
Unless that's eating a grain of rice. You could do
371
00:19:38.160 --> 00:19:41.359
that on a lark. If it's seventy seven times it Yes,
372
00:19:41.640 --> 00:19:44.240
there's a lot of rice and rice. I stand by
373
00:19:44.240 --> 00:19:49.440
that sentence one thousand percent. There's a lot of rice
374
00:19:49.480 --> 00:19:55.119
and rice. Well, you don't think it sounds ritualistic.
375
00:19:55.039 --> 00:19:58.160
No, I do. I can't imagine it's anything other than
376
00:19:58.599 --> 00:20:01.319
kind of the way they buried Pea probably at the time.
377
00:20:01.400 --> 00:20:03.319
Yeah, But then the one child with their head on,
378
00:20:04.200 --> 00:20:05.759
that's the part that that throws me.
379
00:20:06.559 --> 00:20:11.480
Maybe yeah, maybe they didn't bury kids with their heads off.
380
00:20:11.759 --> 00:20:15.160
Maybe it was the only kid that would That would
381
00:20:15.160 --> 00:20:18.039
seem right, although I don't know if they've They didn't
382
00:20:18.079 --> 00:20:21.559
say that it was the only child child there. They
383
00:20:21.599 --> 00:20:28.440
just said it was a child with the skull still attached. Yeah, yeah. Quote.
384
00:20:28.559 --> 00:20:32.079
Because of the spectacular nature of sorry, the way just
385
00:20:32.079 --> 00:20:36.240
saying spectacular feels funny, and that of the mass disposition itself,
386
00:20:36.279 --> 00:20:38.680
the level of complexity with respect to the treatment of
387
00:20:38.759 --> 00:20:42.480
human bodies and the dispositional practices at the site is
388
00:20:42.559 --> 00:20:46.960
easily overlooked. The studies. Authors wrote that complexity is part
389
00:20:47.000 --> 00:20:50.680
of what makes the discovery so significant. The researchers noted
390
00:20:50.680 --> 00:20:55.400
that evidence from the roble Robel could shed could help
391
00:20:55.440 --> 00:21:00.000
shed light on broader questions about quote, ritual violence, social relations,
392
00:21:00.319 --> 00:21:06.200
and cosmology among some of Europe's earliest farming societies. I mean,
393
00:21:06.200 --> 00:21:08.640
I suppose so it might reveal some stuff you don't
394
00:21:08.640 --> 00:21:12.039
want to share it with everybody. But we were just
395
00:21:12.119 --> 00:21:16.920
really into heads. Yeah, yeah, it's really into it. Yeah,
396
00:21:17.480 --> 00:21:22.279
everybody was. It was the eighties, the four eighties. BC
397
00:21:25.400 --> 00:21:29.440
scientists are now conducting additional analyzes, including DNA testing and
398
00:21:29.480 --> 00:21:32.839
isotope studies, to learn more about the individuals buried at
399
00:21:32.839 --> 00:21:35.279
the site and whether they were related to one another.
400
00:21:35.720 --> 00:21:38.319
For now, the authors believe the discovery raises as many
401
00:21:38.400 --> 00:21:42.720
questions as it answers. Quote the evidence from Brabel adds
402
00:21:42.759 --> 00:21:46.480
important information for the larger picture of late LBK communities
403
00:21:46.519 --> 00:21:49.839
in Europe, They wrote, suggesting the site may ultimately change
404
00:21:49.880 --> 00:21:57.839
what archaeologists understand about life and death in the Neolithic world. Yay,
405
00:21:58.039 --> 00:22:01.000
I mean, I'm assuming that they'll at least vaguely related,
406
00:22:01.000 --> 00:22:04.400
only because how deep can a gene pool be when
407
00:22:04.559 --> 00:22:08.319
you know, in the Neolithic, I don't know. I mean,
408
00:22:08.359 --> 00:22:11.960
it's not like you know, people are traveling alone very far.
409
00:22:12.079 --> 00:22:14.000
I don't know. I feel like there wouldn't be an
410
00:22:14.000 --> 00:22:16.359
immense amount of genetic variants.
411
00:22:17.400 --> 00:22:20.279
I mean, I guess, but we really don't know.
412
00:22:20.960 --> 00:22:22.720
But it would be helpful to know if like these
413
00:22:22.720 --> 00:22:25.799
were all people from the same like closer family, and
414
00:22:25.839 --> 00:22:28.880
like it was some kind of a family ritual like
415
00:22:28.960 --> 00:22:34.240
burial ritual thing. M yeah, but the single child still
416
00:22:34.240 --> 00:22:36.319
having a head is the weird the weirdest part.
417
00:22:36.920 --> 00:22:39.119
I don't know. I'm thinking now, maybe he was the
418
00:22:39.240 --> 00:22:43.200
last one, like maybe they all died of an illness
419
00:22:43.240 --> 00:22:45.960
and he was the only one left to perform the
420
00:22:46.079 --> 00:22:51.680
ritual head removing ceremonies and then he died, and then
421
00:22:51.720 --> 00:22:52.480
something that filled it in.
422
00:22:52.519 --> 00:22:56.599
Because he didn't have the ability to build like a
423
00:22:56.640 --> 00:22:59.000
guillotine that he could like, you know, pull it himself.
424
00:22:59.480 --> 00:23:01.079
He didn't really think that far ahead.
425
00:23:02.000 --> 00:23:07.559
Well, now you're just insulting his intelligence. That's pretty good, okay,
426
00:23:08.759 --> 00:23:10.079
if you say so. I mean, they didn't even say
427
00:23:10.119 --> 00:23:12.559
what age the kid was, and they didn't even say
428
00:23:12.599 --> 00:23:13.920
if he was Jewish. If he was Jewish, then if
429
00:23:13.920 --> 00:23:14.759
he's fourteen, he's a.
430
00:23:14.720 --> 00:23:18.079
Man, that's true. I thought he was probably younger than
431
00:23:18.079 --> 00:23:21.279
that though. That's probably so because I felt like if
432
00:23:21.279 --> 00:23:24.119
he was fourteen, they might have said an adolescent. Mmm.
433
00:23:24.400 --> 00:23:28.240
Okay yeah, and I really the big thing is I
434
00:23:28.279 --> 00:23:30.119
would have liked to know where there are other children
435
00:23:30.200 --> 00:23:32.319
in there? M hm you know? Or was that the
436
00:23:32.359 --> 00:23:35.799
only child and the only one with a head?
437
00:23:36.119 --> 00:23:36.440
Yeah?
438
00:23:37.680 --> 00:23:43.880
But speaking of dead children, jeez, what a great, great transition.
439
00:23:44.319 --> 00:23:46.119
When we get back, we're going to be talking about
440
00:23:46.319 --> 00:24:01.400
some ghost kids. Right after this. We are back and Chell,
441
00:24:01.519 --> 00:24:05.880
we're heading to our old buddies at Mirror dot co
442
00:24:06.440 --> 00:24:12.480
dot uk, where when I was skimming the the weird
443
00:24:12.599 --> 00:24:17.400
news section of Mirror dot co dot uk, it turned
444
00:24:17.440 --> 00:24:21.079
out this was like the only news story they'd published
445
00:24:21.079 --> 00:24:25.960
recently that wasn't very very clearly an ad wow like
446
00:24:26.119 --> 00:24:29.079
it was, and it may still be, by the way.
447
00:24:29.400 --> 00:24:31.640
I guess good for them. I hope they're getting money
448
00:24:31.640 --> 00:24:32.960
from these things.
449
00:24:33.319 --> 00:24:36.400
One of them was like literally a story of celebrity
450
00:24:36.519 --> 00:24:39.599
had told about seeing a ghost once, but but it
451
00:24:39.680 --> 00:24:41.640
really just kept talking about the movie she was in
452
00:24:41.680 --> 00:24:44.599
that was not even a hope, like a movie about ghosts.
453
00:24:44.640 --> 00:24:45.119
Wow.
454
00:24:45.880 --> 00:24:48.880
Yeah, so I was like, I'm gonna move on. But
455
00:24:49.680 --> 00:24:52.920
for Mirror dot co dot UK, the headline reads ghost
456
00:24:53.039 --> 00:25:01.079
kids haunt city center shop and leave tiny footprints every night. Wow,
457
00:25:01.599 --> 00:25:05.279
they are footprints. They don't look that tiny though, what
458
00:25:05.960 --> 00:25:09.799
I mean? I mean maybe I'm crazy though maybe I'm
459
00:25:09.799 --> 00:25:12.839
wrong on that one, like see you see them?
460
00:25:13.119 --> 00:25:16.240
Yeah, but I mean I can't really compare without something
461
00:25:16.279 --> 00:25:17.519
for scale, you.
462
00:25:17.400 --> 00:25:19.240
Know, yeah, exactly.
463
00:25:20.440 --> 00:25:23.200
And also why are they like black like that?
464
00:25:24.559 --> 00:25:29.680
Yeah? That I don't know either. I mean staff at
465
00:25:29.680 --> 00:25:34.680
a city center electricals shop. British people man electricals shop.
466
00:25:35.519 --> 00:25:40.440
I'm guessing it means electronics maybe say they're being hounded
467
00:25:40.480 --> 00:25:44.480
by eerie goings on that quote make your skin crawl,
468
00:25:45.000 --> 00:25:51.559
including barefoot, child size footprints and handprints mysteriously appearing on
469
00:25:51.759 --> 00:25:59.559
freshly mopped floors. What Celle, I saw you think? You
470
00:25:59.640 --> 00:26:02.039
almost say something twice? What's on your mind?
471
00:26:02.119 --> 00:26:04.400
Well, I was just thinking if the floors are just
472
00:26:04.519 --> 00:26:07.880
mopped and they're not dry, it's much easier to leave
473
00:26:08.079 --> 00:26:11.400
like footprints and like mud prints and stuff because it
474
00:26:11.519 --> 00:26:13.680
just gets all wet on the bottom of your foot
475
00:26:13.720 --> 00:26:15.319
and then it's going on the floor.
476
00:26:16.319 --> 00:26:19.839
I don't know, true I mean, I mean, it's mostly
477
00:26:19.880 --> 00:26:22.160
just frustrated. It's like I just cleaned that and now
478
00:26:22.240 --> 00:26:23.440
ghosts are walking on it.
479
00:26:24.000 --> 00:26:25.799
Maybe you should stop cleaning the floors.
480
00:26:25.839 --> 00:26:28.559
Then, that doesn't sound like a good solution.
481
00:26:29.119 --> 00:26:30.319
I think that's perfect.
482
00:26:31.079 --> 00:26:33.559
Why do you like dirt floors, like dirty floors so
483
00:26:33.680 --> 00:26:36.319
much then, because why are you in the pocket of
484
00:26:36.359 --> 00:26:37.680
big dirty floor.
485
00:26:39.960 --> 00:26:44.480
Because they pay me? I don't know, I.
486
00:26:44.440 --> 00:26:48.640
Mean, fair, I can't, I can't argue with that. Workers
487
00:26:48.680 --> 00:26:51.400
at the appliance store, located in the heart of Mendoza,
488
00:26:51.559 --> 00:26:55.680
Argentina told the Mendoza Posts that the activity has ramped
489
00:26:55.759 --> 00:26:58.519
up in recent weeks and they now feel it is
490
00:26:58.720 --> 00:27:04.200
impossible to ignore. I assumed it was going to be
491
00:27:04.279 --> 00:27:06.079
in the UK because almost all their stories are in
492
00:27:06.119 --> 00:27:11.160
the UK. But yeah, Argentina, all right. According to the team,
493
00:27:11.319 --> 00:27:16.079
the spooky streak began as a series of odd explainable moments,
494
00:27:16.599 --> 00:27:20.559
strange noises out back, the odd scuff mark where none
495
00:27:20.640 --> 00:27:24.519
should be, But then came clear prints that looked like
496
00:27:24.799 --> 00:27:30.039
the wet impressions of little feet and tiny hands dotted
497
00:27:30.079 --> 00:27:34.680
around the shop floor come morning, despite the place being
498
00:27:34.720 --> 00:27:37.039
scrubbed spotless at.
499
00:27:36.920 --> 00:27:44.920
Clothes, I mean, yeah, somebody's getting in there. Huh.
500
00:27:45.279 --> 00:27:46.680
I mean like a little child.
501
00:27:47.519 --> 00:27:48.960
Yeah, like a little child.
502
00:27:49.359 --> 00:27:51.759
You think like little kids are just like sneaking into
503
00:27:51.759 --> 00:27:53.119
this place and like running around.
504
00:27:53.359 --> 00:27:56.960
They're like squatting in there. That's where they sleep overnight.
505
00:27:57.359 --> 00:27:59.799
Well they're not squatting, they're walking. That's why they footprints.
506
00:27:59.799 --> 00:28:02.240
Hey yeah, well you can spot.
507
00:28:03.519 --> 00:28:07.279
Well maybe you can miss strong hips and knees over here.
508
00:28:11.240 --> 00:28:14.839
Let's see, uh quote, we thought, let's document it. We
509
00:28:14.880 --> 00:28:17.720
took photos, We checked the cameras to see what was happening,
510
00:28:18.079 --> 00:28:21.720
one salesperson said. Another added quote, it gives you a
511
00:28:21.759 --> 00:28:27.079
weird feeling like there's something else here. Crucially, the stor's51200:28:27.160 --> 00:28:32.039
alarms reportedly never trigger triggered. The closed circuit television showed51300:28:32.119 --> 00:28:35.240
quote no one, no one, no one in, and no51400:28:35.319 --> 00:28:39.559
one passing. Yet the marks kept turning up by opening51500:28:39.640 --> 00:28:48.119
time they would set off an alarm. You'd think, what if, like.51600:28:48.279 --> 00:28:50.759
Because they did they like clean them up, Like I'm51700:28:50.759 --> 00:28:54.160
wondering if maybe there's something on the surface that is51800:28:54.160 --> 00:28:56.880
like hoily or like a crayon or something so that51900:28:56.920 --> 00:28:59.640
when you like mop it, it's just like the water,52000:29:00.400 --> 00:29:02.359
you know, doesn't stick on it, and you get these52100:29:02.519 --> 00:29:03.640
points that come through.52200:29:03.720 --> 00:29:06.200
But there's well, if the photo we saw is accurate,52300:29:06.440 --> 00:29:09.640
then that's not what it looks like though. It looks52400:29:09.680 --> 00:29:10.079
like dirt.52500:29:10.519 --> 00:29:12.640
But is that a real photo or do they just52600:29:12.799 --> 00:29:13.279
make one?52700:29:15.559 --> 00:29:23.559
It suggests it's a real photo. Okay, yeah, I mean52800:29:23.559 --> 00:29:26.680
it doesn't have an attribution, so I have no idea52900:29:28.319 --> 00:29:35.240
how mirror dot co dot uk. Let's see what really53000:29:35.359 --> 00:29:39.519
rattled the staff was the shape and size of the impressions. Quote.53100:29:39.720 --> 00:29:42.920
When we close, we clean, we wash the floor, a53200:29:42.960 --> 00:29:46.559
worker told Mendoza Post. When we arrive in the morning,53300:29:46.640 --> 00:29:50.480
there are footprints, like barefoot children's feet in different parts53400:29:50.519 --> 00:29:56.039
of the store. Do you think that one day they53500:29:56.079 --> 00:29:57.960
just didn't clean the floor and the boss caught him53600:29:57.960 --> 00:30:00.119
and they're like, no, no, we cleaned the floors. And53700:30:00.160 --> 00:30:05.960
this just keeps showing up. Its ghosts, totally ghost don't53800:30:06.000 --> 00:30:06.359
fire me.53900:30:06.759 --> 00:30:08.319
You always clean the floor at night.54000:30:09.680 --> 00:30:13.119
Alongside those were small palm prints, sometimes lined up in54100:30:13.160 --> 00:30:16.880
a way that suggested someone or something had been moving54200:30:17.039 --> 00:30:20.039
low to the ground, like crawling.54300:30:20.480 --> 00:30:22.799
Were there like knee prints too?54400:30:23.279 --> 00:30:25.119
They don't have to be knee prints. You can crawl54500:30:25.160 --> 00:30:28.759
like un just your feet in your hands. That's advanced54600:30:28.839 --> 00:30:29.839
crawling technique.54700:30:30.039 --> 00:30:31.240
Fine.54800:30:31.480 --> 00:30:34.480
Quote, it's like they've been crawling through the shop. Another54900:30:34.519 --> 00:30:37.720
employee remarked the pattern they claim has turned into a55000:30:37.759 --> 00:30:42.039
strange routine. The evening clean banishes all marks, the morning55100:30:42.160 --> 00:30:47.559
reveals fresh ones in new spots. Quote. It leaves you55200:30:47.640 --> 00:30:51.359
with a strange sensation, said a warehouse worker. At first,55300:30:51.400 --> 00:30:54.440
we thought the noises were bleeding in from nearby businesses.55400:30:55.039 --> 00:31:01.119
Now we don't know. Ooh. In the back, where boxes55500:31:01.160 --> 00:31:05.799
of blenders and TVs sit stacked high, the team reports bumps, shuffles,55600:31:05.839 --> 00:31:09.640
and the odd clatter even when just one person is55700:31:09.720 --> 00:31:15.880
working alone. Quote, there are sounds, movement and movement. One said,55800:31:16.240 --> 00:31:18.640
we thought it could be from neighboring shops, but now55900:31:18.680 --> 00:31:22.599
we're not sure. With curiosity morphing into concern, the crew56000:31:22.720 --> 00:31:27.319
dug into the site's history and claimed they uncovered an56100:31:27.359 --> 00:31:33.440
eerie echo of the past. Oh now we're talking. Yeah,56200:31:33.559 --> 00:31:37.119
Before it was an appliance showroom, the corner of Calais56300:31:37.200 --> 00:31:41.720
Espanna and General Pause were once an area of modest,56400:31:41.880 --> 00:31:46.200
low houses and bustling tenements. According to the staff's research,56500:31:46.759 --> 00:31:50.680
nearby ran the railway, and the neighborhood teamed with immigrant56600:31:50.720 --> 00:31:54.240
families seeking a start. In the past, the place would56700:31:54.240 --> 00:31:59.119
have had children scurrying about from dusk till dawn. That56800:31:59.160 --> 00:32:02.920
has the shop whork shops workers wondering whether yesterday's footsteps56900:32:03.559 --> 00:32:06.240
might somehow be in printing on today.57000:32:07.920 --> 00:32:08.279
Yeah.57100:32:09.200 --> 00:32:12.079
I mean, you know, if they had found like that57200:32:12.200 --> 00:32:17.039
a school bus full of kids had blown up or something, maybe,57300:32:17.920 --> 00:32:19.759
but the fact that they were like, whoa, this was57400:32:19.799 --> 00:32:23.519
like a neighborhood before it was a building. It's like, okay, oh.57500:32:23.240 --> 00:32:30.599
Places were yeah sort of yeah, I don't give or take. Yeah, yeah,57600:32:30.640 --> 00:32:33.640
I mean I guess it. I wish I had like57700:32:34.079 --> 00:32:37.480
more pictures that I could look at because I'm wondering57800:32:37.480 --> 00:32:41.519
if it's something that just wouldn't trigger cameras, maybe because57900:32:41.519 --> 00:32:45.000
it's too small. It's like a raccoon and they're getting confused.58000:32:46.400 --> 00:32:49.440
Well, but I mean, yeah, I guess if the images58100:32:49.480 --> 00:32:52.759
didn't look like human feet, I.58200:32:52.720 --> 00:32:55.640
Don't know, or they like kind of like human.58300:32:55.359 --> 00:32:58.839
Feet, it could just be a little kid like little58400:32:58.920 --> 00:33:00.720
kids running around and go off in there.58500:33:01.079 --> 00:33:02.279
Yeah, I mean that's probably what.58600:33:02.960 --> 00:33:04.640
I don't know how they'd not set off the alarm,58700:33:04.680 --> 00:33:05.720
but there's got to be a way.58800:33:06.119 --> 00:33:08.839
Yeah, I wonder if like there's like a the alarm58900:33:08.960 --> 00:33:12.680
is like like if there's like a it's like picking59000:33:12.680 --> 00:33:14.759
it up at a certain level, and kids are like59100:33:14.920 --> 00:33:17.400
too low, so it's not catching it on cameras and59200:33:17.400 --> 00:33:19.160
stuff like that. I don't know.59300:33:19.279 --> 00:33:22.960
Man, Well, we're going to take a quick break and59400:33:23.000 --> 00:33:24.680
when we get back, we're going to talk about an59500:33:24.680 --> 00:33:29.599
Australian farmer that discovers something else green in his grocery59600:33:29.599 --> 00:33:34.160
store salad bag that he wasn't quite expecting. Right after this,59700:33:42.119 --> 00:33:45.680
and we are back with a little bit more spooky59800:33:45.720 --> 00:33:49.880
news for you. This one's from Huffington Post and chill59900:33:50.839 --> 00:33:54.599
you don't buy well, it says salad bag you don't60000:33:54.599 --> 00:33:57.440
buy bag salads. But I think that that is just60100:33:57.559 --> 00:34:00.720
that means rough greens because they call like anything that's60200:34:00.759 --> 00:34:03.759
lettuce salad in the UK and Australia.60300:34:05.160 --> 00:34:09.440
Okay, I mean yeah, So have you.60400:34:09.440 --> 00:34:11.480
Ever found anything in like a bag of lettuce you60500:34:11.480 --> 00:34:12.239
weren't expecting?60600:34:13.599 --> 00:34:15.599
I don't normally get bags of lettuce?60700:34:16.280 --> 00:34:18.000
What do you just get ahead of lettuce?60800:34:18.239 --> 00:34:19.360
I don't really get lettuce.60900:34:20.679 --> 00:34:23.239
Have you ever bought any greens?61000:34:23.320 --> 00:34:28.039
Yes, of course I've had you know that, like I61100:34:28.119 --> 00:34:31.079
have that there's bugs in the broccoli, but you've never61200:34:31.119 --> 00:34:32.559
seen any bugs in I've.61300:34:32.400 --> 00:34:34.199
Never seen a bug in broccoli, and I.61400:34:34.119 --> 00:34:36.840
Don't understand what that means, because there's lots of bugs61500:34:36.840 --> 00:34:38.119
in broccoli like all the time.61600:34:38.679 --> 00:34:41.280
I've never seen that at all, and once a warm61700:34:42.400 --> 00:34:47.079
oh god, ugh, more than I've legitimately never seen that.61800:34:48.559 --> 00:34:51.880
I mean, I totally believe that you've never seen it.61900:34:51.920 --> 00:34:53.760
I just don't quite understand.62000:34:54.239 --> 00:34:58.079
But like you don't understand that my car insurance goes62100:34:58.119 --> 00:34:59.639
down every year instead of up.62200:35:00.280 --> 00:35:03.159
Yeah, I know, I know your car insurance is magic.62300:35:03.199 --> 00:35:03.760
I get it.62400:35:05.239 --> 00:35:07.519
I mean it's not going down as aggressively as it62500:35:07.599 --> 00:35:09.440
used to. If that helped makes you feel any.62600:35:09.280 --> 00:35:10.679
Better, doesn't make me feel any better.62700:35:10.760 --> 00:35:14.360
No, okay, okay, I'm sorry you have such a big62800:35:14.400 --> 00:35:19.760
problem with Ohio exceptionalism. All right. So the headline reads62900:35:19.880 --> 00:35:25.559
Ozzie Farmer discovers live frog in grocery store salad bag man.63000:35:25.639 --> 00:35:27.199
That would be a fun thing to find.63100:35:28.199 --> 00:35:30.559
And it's one of those cute little green frogs too,63200:35:31.199 --> 00:35:33.320
like the light green like. It looks very much like63300:35:33.400 --> 00:35:39.119
the like the greens in the bag ah Melbourne, Australia,63400:35:39.239 --> 00:35:42.800
When Australian farmer Rice Smoker announced he that's a hell63500:35:42.840 --> 00:35:45.400
of a name. A Re Smoker, that's a hell of63600:35:45.440 --> 00:35:49.039
a name. Re Smoker announced he found a live frog63700:35:49.079 --> 00:35:52.239
in a bag of lettuce. His housemates didn't believe him.63800:35:53.840 --> 00:35:57.239
So Smoker had been preparing a steak in salad dinner63900:35:57.280 --> 00:35:59.599
on Saturday for the three people who share his house64000:35:59.639 --> 00:36:03.480
and s Prince in Western Australia State, when he spotted64100:36:03.480 --> 00:36:06.880
the frog among the leaves inside the sealed plastic bag64200:36:07.239 --> 00:36:11.480
he bought from a supermarket. House housemate Laura Jones said64300:36:11.519 --> 00:36:15.480
on Tuesday, quote, He's like, oh, bro, there's a frog64400:36:15.519 --> 00:36:18.280
in the lettuce. And we're like, no, you're taking the64500:36:18.320 --> 00:36:23.039
mick like that's not real. You're taking the mick like64600:36:23.119 --> 00:36:26.679
that's not real, Jones told AP. Taking the mic is64700:36:26.719 --> 00:36:31.039
a slang term for attempting to fool someone. Thank you,64800:36:31.119 --> 00:36:35.400
Ap Smoker. Reese Smoker, what a name?64900:36:35.920 --> 00:36:36.679
Gosh?65000:36:36.719 --> 00:36:41.039
I want to be a private detective named Reese Smoker. Yeah.65100:36:41.199 --> 00:36:45.000
Smoker brought the bag into the lounge room to show65200:36:45.079 --> 00:36:48.920
Jones and her partner Billy Lapine. Obviously there's a little65300:36:48.960 --> 00:36:51.159
frog hiding out and yeah, we all had a little65400:36:51.239 --> 00:36:56.000
laugh about it, Jones said, Lapine said they named the65500:36:56.039 --> 00:36:59.480
frog Greg before releasing it at a pond near the house.65600:37:00.679 --> 00:37:02.320
That's notice, I don't know that that frog wants to65700:37:02.320 --> 00:37:03.079
live in that pond.65800:37:03.639 --> 00:37:06.039
I mean I probably would have gone on the internet65900:37:06.079 --> 00:37:08.039
and figured out what kind of frog it was and66000:37:08.079 --> 00:37:10.320
then decided what I needed to do with it because66100:37:10.320 --> 00:37:12.039
it could be an invasive species.66200:37:13.159 --> 00:37:14.679
Oh, then you would have just stomped on it.66300:37:15.039 --> 00:37:17.079
No, then I would have. I would have talked to66400:37:17.119 --> 00:37:20.079
it before releasing it and been like, listen, you can't66500:37:20.159 --> 00:37:21.960
be invasive, and then I.66600:37:21.920 --> 00:37:30.559
Would have let it go, like do you understand rabbit? Good? Oh?66700:37:32.760 --> 00:37:36.159
Oh my gosh. Uh, let's see quote. We thought we'd66800:37:36.159 --> 00:37:38.440
give him a wee send off tune as we played66900:37:38.480 --> 00:37:43.760
crazy Frog for him, Lapline told Australian Broadcasting Corp. Crazy67000:37:43.760 --> 00:37:47.960
Frog is a Swedish CGI animated character and eurodance musician.67100:37:48.519 --> 00:37:50.679
Thank you, because I didn't know, ap.67200:37:51.360 --> 00:37:55.760
No one did. Smoker and his partner Lily Ashby had67300:37:55.800 --> 00:37:59.280
bought the lettuce at a Woolworth's market in Esperance. Uh67400:37:59.639 --> 00:38:02.599
the same day Greg was discovered. Man, I forget that67500:38:02.639 --> 00:38:06.599
Woolworth's is still like a big thing in some other places. Yeah,67600:38:06.960 --> 00:38:09.400
we don't have. I don't think we have any Woolworts.67700:38:09.559 --> 00:38:12.159
I think they're all gone. Yeah.67800:38:12.400 --> 00:38:15.920
Five years ago, a shopper confronted a three meter long,67900:38:16.000 --> 00:38:19.400
non venomous diamond python on a shelf of a Woolworf's68000:38:19.480 --> 00:38:23.239
market in Sydney. Also in twenty twenty one, a shopper68100:38:23.280 --> 00:38:26.800
discovered a venomous, pale headed snake wrapped in plastic with68200:38:26.920 --> 00:38:29.519
lettuce and in all the Sydney supermarkets.68300:38:29.840 --> 00:38:30.480
Wow.68400:38:33.079 --> 00:38:35.800
I feel like this is just like like this should68500:38:35.840 --> 00:38:38.159
be sponsored by like Ohio and it just says like,68600:38:38.239 --> 00:38:43.760
don't go anywhere. Just stay home in Ohio. Just stay home. Yeah,68700:38:43.800 --> 00:38:46.440
you're fine, it's fun. You like where you are. Don't68800:38:46.440 --> 00:38:50.320
go to Australia, that's for sure. Woolworths said the frog68900:38:50.400 --> 00:38:53.400
in the salad was an isolated incident. I mean it'd69000:38:53.400 --> 00:38:55.440
be impressive, but they're like, oh, we put frogs in69100:38:55.480 --> 00:38:59.679
every salad. Yeah, and there had been no other similar69200:38:59.719 --> 00:39:03.400
case is reported. Quote. Our teams are investigating this with69300:39:03.440 --> 00:39:07.159
our suppliers as a priority. A Woolsworth. A Woolworth's statement69400:39:07.199 --> 00:39:11.920
said Woolworth's apologized to the household and provided a replacement bag.69500:39:11.679 --> 00:39:14.840
Of lettuce just what you want more frogs?69600:39:15.480 --> 00:39:17.719
Yeah, you just want more frogs in your lettuce, which69700:39:17.840 --> 00:39:22.519
sounds like a really old old timey saying, mm. Yeah,69800:39:22.559 --> 00:39:25.000
you just end up with more frogs in your lettuce.69900:39:25.320 --> 00:39:31.320
Yeah what what you know the old saying, yeah, more70000:39:31.360 --> 00:39:33.199
frogs in your lettuce. That's that's.70100:39:33.840 --> 00:39:34.079
Yeah.70200:39:34.119 --> 00:39:35.719
Yeah, if you go to the doctor, he's just gonna70300:39:35.719 --> 00:39:37.199
say more frogs in your lettuce.70400:39:37.719 --> 00:39:40.239
Yeah, exactly. It's like when you get that thing that70500:39:40.320 --> 00:39:42.719
you wanted, but then there's something in that you didn't expect,70600:39:43.000 --> 00:39:45.039
and then you go to get the thing again and70700:39:45.079 --> 00:39:47.360
there's still more things that you didn't want in it.70800:39:51.880 --> 00:40:00.719
You just broke me. I'm sorry, you end up with70900:40:01.199 --> 00:40:06.599
more frogs in your lettuce. That's we're making that as71000:40:06.599 --> 00:40:10.239
saying everybody. The trick to making things of saying is71100:40:10.239 --> 00:40:13.159
always attribute it to a family member, like like like71200:40:13.400 --> 00:40:16.639
like my my great uncle always used to say, just71300:40:16.719 --> 00:40:19.679
more frogs in your lettuce. Yeah, that's how you get71400:40:19.719 --> 00:40:23.679
it to you get it to stick. We're gonna we're71500:40:23.679 --> 00:40:25.639
gonna take a quick break and when we get back,71600:40:25.679 --> 00:40:29.519
we're going to uh head to uh a plane flight71700:40:29.679 --> 00:40:33.000
that UH had to take a U turn over a71800:40:33.039 --> 00:40:38.559
strange bit of a technical issue. I can't. I'm still71900:40:38.599 --> 00:40:41.440
thinking about more frogs in your lettuce, all right, right72000:40:41.480 --> 00:40:53.960
after this shell? Yeah, you don't fly a ton, right,72100:40:54.039 --> 00:40:55.440
I don't fly a ton either.72200:40:55.920 --> 00:40:57.000
No, I don't fly a ton.72300:40:57.440 --> 00:41:00.000
Do you have an airline you prefer though, No.72400:41:00.119 --> 00:41:03.000
It's been so long that they all merged and closed72500:41:03.000 --> 00:41:04.960
down and who knows what's going on.72600:41:05.760 --> 00:41:09.480
You know, I'm bummed because I loved flying Jet Blue,72700:41:10.960 --> 00:41:14.280
but I don't have a Jet Blue in my area.72800:41:14.360 --> 00:41:16.599
I think the nearest Jet Blue is Indianapolis, so it's72900:41:16.639 --> 00:41:18.199
two hours almost two hours away.73000:41:20.639 --> 00:41:24.320
That's a drive to Indianapolis.73100:41:24.559 --> 00:41:29.400
I don't hate idiot trip, yeah, but it's extra a73200:41:29.400 --> 00:41:32.960
big bummer because my old my old boss, Mike, he73300:41:33.119 --> 00:41:35.119
has he told me that if I ever want to73400:41:35.119 --> 00:41:39.039
fly Jet Blue, just ask because he accrued such an73500:41:39.039 --> 00:41:41.400
obscene amount of Jet Blue miles. He said that he73600:41:41.440 --> 00:41:43.239
could never use them if he used them for the73700:41:43.320 --> 00:41:46.239
rest of his life. Wow. But I was like, damn it,73800:41:46.280 --> 00:41:49.400
because like when I lived in Jersey, we would fly73900:41:49.440 --> 00:41:53.360
out of Jet Blue at jfk M and because they74000:41:53.360 --> 00:41:56.960
had a Jet Blue terminal, and Philly has a Jet74100:41:56.960 --> 00:41:59.760
Blue terminal. But I think I believe the closest one74200:41:59.760 --> 00:42:03.360
to me is Indianapolis, which extra stinks because if it74300:42:03.400 --> 00:42:06.760
could have been Cincinnati, that's only like forty five minutes. Yeah,74400:42:07.440 --> 00:42:09.079
you can kind of like you could get a buddy74500:42:09.119 --> 00:42:11.400
to do that for you, you know, like you could74600:42:11.440 --> 00:42:15.239
find somebody two hours each way. That's that's pretty far.74700:42:15.679 --> 00:42:21.719
That's a bit. Yeah. So but anyway, this is from NPR,74800:42:21.880 --> 00:42:28.719
your favorite Oh no, no pulse required radio. The headline74900:42:28.800 --> 00:42:33.760
is United Airlines flight to Spain pulls U turn apparently75000:42:33.960 --> 00:42:35.960
over Bluetooth device name.75100:42:37.119 --> 00:42:37.800
Oh no.75200:42:39.559 --> 00:42:43.000
Yeah. So we've all heard the jokes right about like75300:42:43.119 --> 00:42:46.400
naming your naming your Wi Fi like you know, FBI75400:42:46.519 --> 00:42:51.760
surveillance fan three and stuff. Haha, so funny or ones75500:42:51.760 --> 00:42:54.400
that just say, like, you know, stop trying to steal75600:42:54.440 --> 00:42:56.639
my Internet ned or whatever, you know, like.75700:42:56.599 --> 00:42:57.000
You just.75800:42:59.320 --> 00:43:02.960
I'm guessing if somebody had a funny had added a75900:43:02.960 --> 00:43:05.760
funny name to a Bluetooth device or a Bluetooth advice76000:43:05.880 --> 00:43:08.559
just had an odd out of context name.76100:43:08.800 --> 00:43:10.280
Nice and that is it's a bomb.76200:43:11.199 --> 00:43:14.760
It just says it's a bomb. Yeah, that's Oh, I'm curious.76300:43:14.800 --> 00:43:18.079
I don't know exactly what it said. So let's see76400:43:18.199 --> 00:43:21.599
let's dig in. A United Airlines flight Hey from New York,76500:43:21.639 --> 00:43:27.000
New Jersey to Palma de Morocco, Spain, pulled a U76600:43:27.039 --> 00:43:29.239
turn late Saturday over what appears to have been a76700:43:29.280 --> 00:43:33.760
suspiciously named Bluetooth device on board. Flight tracking data shows76800:43:33.760 --> 00:43:36.320
that the flight, which should have landed in Spain after76900:43:36.360 --> 00:43:40.239
a nearly eight hour flight, instead returned to Newark after77000:43:40.320 --> 00:43:42.559
four hours and twenty four minutes in the air.77100:43:42.920 --> 00:43:43.800
That sucks.77200:43:44.599 --> 00:43:48.119
United Airlines told nprvia email that the flight turned around77300:43:48.199 --> 00:43:52.800
to quote address a potential security concern. Multiple posts on77400:43:52.840 --> 00:43:56.679
social media from self identified passengers indicate that the problem77500:43:56.760 --> 00:43:59.840
was a Bluetooth device on board the plane. Several of77600:43:59.880 --> 00:44:02.679
the those passengers posted photos or video of them on77700:44:02.760 --> 00:44:05.639
board the flight or in the airport with time stamps77800:44:05.639 --> 00:44:08.760
that match the flight's actual schedule. So you think it77900:44:08.800 --> 00:44:09.599
was bomb related?78000:44:10.320 --> 00:44:10.679
Yeah?78100:44:11.000 --> 00:44:18.760
Yeah, So I'm gonna say, hmm, maybe it was. Maybe78200:44:18.760 --> 00:44:21.840
it comes off as like terrorism related, but I won't78300:44:21.880 --> 00:44:24.159
count bomb as terrorism related, So.78400:44:24.519 --> 00:44:27.199
Okay, so just some other terrorism.78500:44:27.440 --> 00:44:31.159
I'm just trying to guess. So I hope it's not78600:44:31.280 --> 00:44:35.199
anything stupid. Maybe now I'm worried it's going to be stupid.78700:44:35.199 --> 00:44:36.800
I should have went with stupid. I should have made78800:44:36.800 --> 00:44:38.360
my bet on stupid. Damn it.78900:44:38.800 --> 00:44:39.679
You can change it.79000:44:39.800 --> 00:44:42.880
I don't want to change it. Now. I made my bed,79100:44:42.920 --> 00:44:45.440
and now I have to turn my flight around in it.79200:44:47.519 --> 00:44:50.480
Some passengers knew little more than the flight attendants had79300:44:50.800 --> 00:44:54.039
as knew little more than the flight attendants had asked79400:44:54.079 --> 00:44:58.519
passengers to turn off their Bluetooth devices. One post referenced79500:44:59.239 --> 00:45:02.280
in flight and nownouncements with quote lots of comments like79600:45:02.639 --> 00:45:07.280
this little joke is ruining it for everyone. I think79700:45:07.280 --> 00:45:09.119
it's gonna be stupid, and now I'm starting to think79800:45:09.159 --> 00:45:12.920
it's gonna be stupid. Audio from air traffic control sheds79900:45:12.960 --> 00:45:15.280
a little more light on the situation. One voice on80000:45:15.320 --> 00:45:17.960
the recording asked what had happened with the flight, which80100:45:17.960 --> 00:45:21.960
had recently landed back at Newark and remained on the tarmac. Wait.80200:45:22.119 --> 00:45:24.639
Air traffic control was like, they must have meant, like,80300:45:24.760 --> 00:45:27.119
why did we I'm assuming that they were told the80400:45:27.159 --> 00:45:29.000
plane was coming back and they like set them up80500:45:29.039 --> 00:45:30.480
to land and then went so why did you have80600:45:30.519 --> 00:45:32.599
to do that? Because it'd be really word They're like, hey,80700:45:33.000 --> 00:45:34.800
what are you guys doing here? It's like it's like80800:45:34.840 --> 00:45:37.599
your air traffic control. How did you land without talking80900:45:37.599 --> 00:45:37.880
to us?81000:45:39.920 --> 00:45:42.599
What I'll tell you about it after this?81100:45:43.280 --> 00:45:47.320
Okay, yeah, there's a quote. There's a security detail out there.81200:45:47.519 --> 00:45:50.639
Someone had a Bluetooth speaker and they named it a81300:45:50.679 --> 00:45:55.679
four letter word. Another voice responded, so they have to81400:45:55.760 --> 00:45:59.960
inspect the whole aircraft, including the cargo area, and passengers81500:46:00.079 --> 00:46:06.239
have to evacuate. That's crazy, The first voice replied, four81600:46:06.320 --> 00:46:09.360
letter word in this case doesn't oh okay, okay doesn't81700:46:09.360 --> 00:46:12.320
appear to refer to a curse word, but rather a81800:46:12.360 --> 00:46:18.400
different four letter word that triggered airline security procedures. Oh okay.81900:46:19.199 --> 00:46:21.039
I got scared for a second that they were mad82000:46:21.079 --> 00:46:22.360
about like a swear word.82100:46:22.960 --> 00:46:25.920
Yeah yeah, yeah.82200:46:26.039 --> 00:46:30.639
Quote. There is an active Bluetooth network labeled bomb. Okay,82300:46:31.079 --> 00:46:36.039
tell on, tell on this one, one self identified passenger82400:46:36.119 --> 00:46:39.119
wrote on TikTok she shared a video of herself drinking82500:46:39.199 --> 00:46:43.079
sangria geotag to Paul Ma de Morocca after the flight82600:46:43.199 --> 00:46:47.199
finally arrived. Another reddit's post of someone who claimed to82700:46:47.199 --> 00:46:49.559
be the spouse of a passenger similarly reported that the82800:46:49.599 --> 00:46:53.000
word in question was bomb and that the device was82900:46:53.079 --> 00:46:57.760
a teenager speaker. I could kind of see naming a83000:46:57.760 --> 00:47:01.559
speaker bomb or a speaker being called bomb, you know,83100:47:01.599 --> 00:47:06.480
because it's loud or whatever. The flight eventually reboarded and83200:47:06.559 --> 00:47:12.119
landed in Palma de Morocco, Morocco, Mayoco. I'm having trouble83300:47:12.119 --> 00:47:15.559
with myoko at three forty seven pm local time on Sunday,83400:47:15.599 --> 00:47:20.239
about nine and a half hours late. So do you83500:47:20.280 --> 00:47:22.000
think that the kid named it that or that that83600:47:22.119 --> 00:47:23.000
was what it was named?83700:47:24.079 --> 00:47:28.159
I think the kid named it that. Yeah, yeah, but83800:47:28.400 --> 00:47:31.840
like I don't know if it was if they named83900:47:31.840 --> 00:47:34.280
it that like before and then didn't think about it,84000:47:34.400 --> 00:47:36.119
or if they thought they were being funny.84100:47:36.599 --> 00:47:39.320
I just found a portable speaker named bomb from t tech.84200:47:40.079 --> 00:47:42.400
Okay, maybe it was just and it looks.84300:47:42.159 --> 00:47:45.000
Like a bomb, but like a cartoon bomb.84400:47:45.440 --> 00:47:50.360
Yeah, maybe it was just called that. Look look yeah, yeah,84500:47:50.400 --> 00:47:51.000
there you go.84600:47:51.480 --> 00:47:53.719
It looks like a little like a cartoon bomb. You know,84700:47:53.760 --> 00:47:58.320
it's like black circule circle. I'm wondering if that's what84800:47:58.360 --> 00:48:02.480
the kid had it's squite. I guess it would be.84900:48:02.519 --> 00:48:04.159
It could be possible that there would be a bomb85000:48:04.159 --> 00:48:07.760
that would be like triggered with bluetooth like to you know, explode,85100:48:07.760 --> 00:48:09.000
and that's why they got freaked out.85200:48:09.239 --> 00:48:11.679
Mm hmm yeah, and they just they were like, ah,85300:48:11.679 --> 00:48:13.719
we don't have to change the name. It's easier this way,85400:48:13.760 --> 00:48:14.880
so we know which one it is.85500:48:15.480 --> 00:48:17.639
I mean, I think the bigger faux pas is that85600:48:17.679 --> 00:48:21.840
you even had your bluetooth speaker powered on on a flight.85700:48:21.920 --> 00:48:24.320
What are you gonna use it for? You? You need85800:48:24.320 --> 00:48:28.079
to keep your shit to yourself. You are not sharing85900:48:28.639 --> 00:48:30.800
this unless you're playing this podcast. You could play this86000:48:31.079 --> 00:48:34.440
over a Bluetooth speaker on an airplane. I'm giving you permission,86100:48:35.679 --> 00:48:44.159
but not legal permission, just moral permission. But but that's86200:48:44.199 --> 00:48:46.159
that's tough. I don't know. Do you think that that86300:48:46.320 --> 00:48:49.239
was a a not the not a wise move the86400:48:49.239 --> 00:48:50.719
the bluetooth speaker, But do you think it was a86500:48:50.719 --> 00:48:53.199
wise move to turn the plane around because there was86600:48:53.239 --> 00:48:54.800
a Bluetooth thingy that said bomb?86700:48:55.360 --> 00:48:59.440
I think you basically just gotta just in cases. But86800:48:59.559 --> 00:49:02.440
I'm sure all the passengers except for that one kid86900:49:02.559 --> 00:49:04.320
pissed the fuck off of that kid.87000:49:04.639 --> 00:49:08.039
Oh god, yeah, yeah, oh yeah, see I would have87100:49:08.079 --> 00:49:09.760
if it were me, I would have been like, please87200:49:09.880 --> 00:49:11.400
just take us to my ORCA. I don't want to87300:49:11.440 --> 00:49:13.119
die in New Jersey. I don't know how many times.87400:49:13.159 --> 00:49:16.079
I have to say it over and over. Don't let87500:49:16.119 --> 00:49:20.440
me die in New Jersey. I'm not going to die today,87600:49:20.480 --> 00:49:26.880
not in New Jersey, but damn. Yeah. I was really87700:49:26.920 --> 00:49:28.719
worried that it was gonna be something stupid. When it87800:49:28.719 --> 00:49:30.960
said four letter word, I was like, oh gosh, don't87900:49:30.960 --> 00:49:32.880
tell me they like did it because of a swear word?88000:49:33.039 --> 00:49:36.159
Now bomb, yep, that's four letter word. Yeah, so before88100:49:36.159 --> 00:49:37.760
we take a break, you were going to say something.88200:49:38.800 --> 00:49:41.039
Yeah, a couple of months ago, I don't know, did88300:49:41.039 --> 00:49:44.159
you hear about the plane that like it's landing gear,88400:49:44.440 --> 00:49:48.159
like came down on the highway near Newark and like88500:49:48.239 --> 00:49:48.920
hit a truck.88600:49:50.559 --> 00:49:51.840
I think I did hear about that.88700:49:52.440 --> 00:49:54.639
Yeah, I don't know. I just didn't know what you88800:49:54.760 --> 00:49:55.280
heard about.88900:49:56.039 --> 00:49:59.079
Oh, Newark Airport. I only had to fly out of89000:49:59.079 --> 00:50:01.800
you once and it was that was enough.89100:50:02.199 --> 00:50:05.239
It's scary, though, because if you take the turnpike right there,89200:50:05.320 --> 00:50:07.800
the planes look so low and we're always afraid that89300:50:07.800 --> 00:50:09.079
one of them is going to hit us. And then89400:50:09.119 --> 00:50:10.800
it hit one really did hit a truck.89500:50:14.400 --> 00:50:17.880
Yeah, I'm glad I don't live so close to write89600:50:17.880 --> 00:50:19.760
Patterson Air Force Base that I feel like the planes89700:50:19.800 --> 00:50:23.800
are dangerously close. Although there are times because there are89800:50:23.800 --> 00:50:26.559
always like military transports like all the time over me89900:50:27.840 --> 00:50:29.599
where you'll see one and be like, is that a90000:50:29.679 --> 00:50:33.119
really really really big one or is it really low?90100:50:34.360 --> 00:50:35.599
Yeah?90200:50:35.639 --> 00:50:37.519
And the best part is you never get to find out.90300:50:38.119 --> 00:50:38.760
Yeah.90400:50:39.559 --> 00:50:41.119
I mean, actually that is the best part because that90500:50:41.159 --> 00:50:45.360
means they didn't, like, you know, crash or something. Yeah, yeah, hooray.90600:50:45.639 --> 00:50:47.760
Although apparently there's an app you can pull up to90700:50:47.840 --> 00:50:51.119
like find out what airplanes are flying over you. But90800:50:51.199 --> 00:50:54.880
I'm not an air force nerd or an air airplane nerd,90900:50:55.039 --> 00:50:55.840
so I don't do that.91000:50:56.239 --> 00:50:59.880
Yeah, my sister is one of her ex boyfriends used91100:50:59.880 --> 00:51:03.280
to do that. I mean he he was becoming a pilot,91200:51:03.400 --> 00:51:05.159
so I think that was okay.91300:51:05.280 --> 00:51:09.440
But yeah, and she was like too successful for me.91400:51:09.519 --> 00:51:11.880
I need, I need, you gotta, you gotta, you gotta91500:51:11.920 --> 00:51:13.719
become like a dirt farmer. So I don't know why91600:51:13.719 --> 00:51:21.320
I said dirt farmer really exactly. Well, we're gonna take91700:51:21.360 --> 00:51:24.559
a quick break and uh and uh, give you guys91800:51:24.599 --> 00:51:28.320
a chance to charge your bomb portable bluetooth speaker. I91900:51:28.400 --> 00:51:29.800
kind of want to buy one now.92000:51:30.239 --> 00:51:31.920
Yeah, just don't take it on a plane with.92100:51:31.880 --> 00:51:34.280
It on I mean, why would I want a portable92200:51:34.320 --> 00:51:38.440
speaker on an airplane anyway, But we're gonna take a92300:51:38.519 --> 00:51:40.760
quick break and when we get back, we're gonna talk92400:51:40.800 --> 00:51:46.199
about a an escaped wild animal in Texas that apparently92500:51:46.239 --> 00:51:53.760
no one can find. No, sadly, I think that's New York. Well,92600:51:54.400 --> 00:51:56.360
good job, you keep teasing it though. That's good. It's92700:51:56.360 --> 00:52:10.960
gonna keep people around. Yeah, listen to these ads, all right, shell,92800:52:11.000 --> 00:52:16.360
I have a question for you, really, yes, So if92900:52:16.480 --> 00:52:22.800
you like, if if a zoo animal escaped you're shaking93000:52:22.800 --> 00:52:26.480
your head already, Yeah, it's like, no, if a zoo93100:52:26.559 --> 00:52:29.400
animal escaped, what zoo animal do you think would be93200:52:29.480 --> 00:52:33.719
the hardest to find, like like as far as like93300:52:33.920 --> 00:52:42.639
uh in Texas.93400:52:38.519 --> 00:52:40.599
Like some sort of exotic gecko.93500:52:41.400 --> 00:52:44.559
Okay, because they're small and they can kind of blend93600:52:44.599 --> 00:52:48.519
in and they're used to the heat. Sure, yeah, okay,93700:52:48.519 --> 00:52:52.519
And what do you imagine would be the hardest to find?93800:52:53.320 --> 00:52:54.800
I thought that's what we were doing.93900:52:55.480 --> 00:52:58.079
Okay, fine, I'll just I'll just jump.94000:52:57.800 --> 00:52:59.880
In the hardest to find or.94100:53:00.159 --> 00:53:01.519
Sorry, the hardest to lose?94200:53:01.800 --> 00:53:05.000
Sorry, Oh, like a like a like a giraffe.94300:53:05.039 --> 00:53:11.440
Maybe nan Chel's been on a winning street today Huffington94400:53:11.519 --> 00:53:15.440
Post escaped giraffe named Gracie on the loose in Texas94500:53:15.559 --> 00:53:17.639
and no one can find her?94600:53:18.159 --> 00:53:18.679
Why not?94700:53:22.599 --> 00:53:25.599
That was my when I saw this headline. That was94800:53:25.639 --> 00:53:31.079
my response to how can you not find it? A94900:53:31.119 --> 00:53:34.559
giraffe named Gracie is missing in Texas and the search95000:53:34.599 --> 00:53:41.400
for her has become a tall order. Gracie, who was95100:53:41.440 --> 00:53:44.679
about three years old, has been missing for nearly two95200:53:44.719 --> 00:53:48.719
weeks after escaping her enclosure at the Cedar Hollow Ranch95300:53:48.800 --> 00:53:52.480
in the Texas Hill count Country, said Vic Jones, who95400:53:52.559 --> 00:53:55.519
owns the remote property about one hundred miles west of95500:53:55.599 --> 00:53:59.159
San Antonio. He said Wednesday that Gracie had wandered into95600:53:59.159 --> 00:54:02.280
a part of the private Leonned preserve that other giraffes95700:54:02.519 --> 00:54:07.719
previously avoided. Ooh, do you think it was like haunted95800:54:08.000 --> 00:54:09.719
or something like? The girafts were like, we don't want to.95900:54:09.679 --> 00:54:12.199
Mess with that, I assume, So why else would they96000:54:12.280 --> 00:54:13.519
not want to go somewhere?96100:54:14.199 --> 00:54:15.920
What do you think scares giraffes? Do you think like96200:54:15.960 --> 00:54:18.719
they see visions of like giraffes but with regular necks,96300:54:18.719 --> 00:54:21.000
and it just like chills them to the bone. They're like,96400:54:21.079 --> 00:54:22.519
never mind, don't want to be over there.96500:54:22.599 --> 00:54:26.159
That would probably do it. Honestly, that would be terrifying.96600:54:26.840 --> 00:54:28.920
I feel like it would scare me to see a96700:54:28.920 --> 00:54:30.480
giraffe with a regular length of neck.96800:54:30.840 --> 00:54:31.280
Yeah.96900:54:32.440 --> 00:54:36.480
Do you You had that apartment in West Philly mm97000:54:36.559 --> 00:54:39.719
hm that had the window in the in the bathroom97100:54:39.760 --> 00:54:41.639
that was like really really really high up.97200:54:42.000 --> 00:54:42.599
Yeah.97300:54:42.599 --> 00:54:44.639
And I remember the first time I ever took a97400:54:44.679 --> 00:54:46.519
shower there, I looked up and I just imagined that97500:54:46.639 --> 00:54:50.199
giraffes had popping and it's so it just seemed bizarrely97600:54:50.320 --> 00:54:50.840
high up.97700:54:51.519 --> 00:54:53.599
I thought it was perfectly high up.97800:54:54.000 --> 00:54:57.119
Oh. I mean I actually really liked that apartment, but97900:54:57.320 --> 00:55:00.000
good apartment. Yeah, but it just it just seemed funny98000:55:00.159 --> 00:55:02.280
how tall the ceiling was, and then that there was98100:55:02.280 --> 00:55:04.119
a window all the way up there. And it makes98200:55:04.159 --> 00:55:06.400
sense though, because it let the you know, the uh98300:55:08.119 --> 00:55:10.079
I was gonna say vapor, which is correct, the steam.98400:55:10.119 --> 00:55:12.440
It would let the steam out and stuff. But I98500:55:12.480 --> 00:55:16.280
just remember, I always imagine, like, hello, just a giraffe.98600:55:17.079 --> 00:55:21.079
But it is it is weird that they can't find98700:55:21.119 --> 00:55:21.800
the giraffe.98800:55:22.119 --> 00:55:23.559
Yeah, yeah, it's kind of weird.98900:55:23.920 --> 00:55:24.800
They're pretty big.99000:55:25.400 --> 00:55:26.639
Yeah.99100:55:26.760 --> 00:55:30.159
Jones said he has sent up helicopters to look for Gracie.99200:55:30.280 --> 00:55:33.199
A few sightings have trickled in and a five thousand99300:55:33.199 --> 00:55:36.800
dollars reward is on the table. I feel like you99400:55:36.800 --> 00:55:39.440
should raise that reward to save face, because the longer99500:55:39.480 --> 00:55:41.840
you're the guy who can't find a giraffe in Texas,99600:55:41.880 --> 00:55:43.039
the worse it looks for you.99700:55:43.480 --> 00:55:44.239
Yeah.99800:55:44.280 --> 00:55:46.719
I appreciate that this is from a preserve and not99900:55:46.920 --> 00:55:49.719
like a zoo or something like that. It's a place100000:55:49.719 --> 00:55:55.880
where they're supposed to be healthy and happy, but still lost.100100:55:55.880 --> 00:55:58.519
The giraffe, I don't know, have all the all the100200:55:58.639 --> 00:56:02.360
like animals. Just I feel like giraffe and elephant, you're100300:56:02.400 --> 00:56:03.239
not gonna lose those.100400:56:03.840 --> 00:56:06.760
Yeah, yeah, you think so, but I guess not. Maybe100500:56:06.840 --> 00:56:09.039
it's hiding in a forest somewhere with lots of trees100600:56:09.280 --> 00:56:10.440
so they can't find it.100700:56:10.880 --> 00:56:13.400
Yeah, until it eats. It eats its way through enough100800:56:13.400 --> 00:56:15.760
that you can spot it, you know, like, hey, there100900:56:15.760 --> 00:56:19.719
it is. Man. You gotta put an air tag on101000:56:19.840 --> 00:56:24.199
your giraffes collar, you know, you gotta. But the giraffe,101100:56:24.199 --> 00:56:28.840
which stands roughly the height of a tree, hasn't turned up. Quote.101200:56:28.880 --> 00:56:31.079
She wound up going up and feeding in an area101300:56:31.119 --> 00:56:33.280
on the hillside and the rocky ledges that none of101400:56:33.280 --> 00:56:36.800
the other drafts giraffes had ever gone on before, Joan said,101500:56:37.079 --> 00:56:39.239
And when she came down off of there, she came101600:56:39.280 --> 00:56:41.639
down on the wrong side of the gate. Ah, poor101700:56:41.719 --> 00:56:46.679
giraffe or the giraffe was like, I'm gonna get my101800:56:46.760 --> 00:56:49.280
music career started. Yeah, I don't want to. I don't101900:56:49.320 --> 00:56:51.559
want to do what my parents did and just eat102000:56:52.320 --> 00:56:56.119
eat leaves off of branches. I would to be like102100:56:56.159 --> 00:57:01.360
my cousin he worked at Toys r US. The ranch102200:57:01.440 --> 00:57:05.280
is in rural Real County where it's roughly I don't102300:57:05.280 --> 00:57:06.960
know if I believe that the county is real now,102400:57:07.239 --> 00:57:08.840
because it's called Real County.102500:57:08.599 --> 00:57:12.280
I don't and it's spelled real r e L. Wow. Yeah,102600:57:12.280 --> 00:57:13.239
I don't believe it either.102700:57:13.360 --> 00:57:17.039
Yeah, where it's roughly two thousand, seven hundred residents were102800:57:17.039 --> 00:57:19.800
put on alert to be on the lookout for a102900:57:19.840 --> 00:57:24.760
missing giraffe. I if I got that alert, I'd be103000:57:24.840 --> 00:57:28.559
like what, Yeah, yeah, Granton, I live in the suburbs,103100:57:28.559 --> 00:57:31.239
so that's extra weird. But like I guess, if you103200:57:31.280 --> 00:57:33.320
live in a town that small, everybody who knows about103300:57:33.320 --> 00:57:34.119
the guy who keeps.103400:57:33.960 --> 00:57:37.119
Giraffes mm hmm yeah. Yeah, so it's like, oh no,103500:57:37.239 --> 00:57:38.559
when of the drafts got out again.103600:57:39.440 --> 00:57:41.239
The worst thing would have been if the diraff had103700:57:41.360 --> 00:57:43.519
escaped on April first. So they put out the alert103800:57:43.519 --> 00:57:45.480
like be on the lookout for an escaped giraffe, and103900:57:45.519 --> 00:57:49.079
they'd be like right, okay, and then they would just104000:57:49.079 --> 00:57:51.159
be like in their front yard watching a giraffe like104100:57:51.280 --> 00:57:53.239
break their car, like stepping on it, and be like104200:57:53.639 --> 00:57:56.159
whatever you say, you just go back inside.104300:57:56.719 --> 00:57:58.360
Yeah.104400:57:58.519 --> 00:58:01.360
Jones said the search area is extremely remote and the104500:58:01.480 --> 00:58:05.920
likelihood of Gracie encountering any humans is low. Quote, people104600:58:05.920 --> 00:58:08.719
are not in danger of her because she's not around people.104700:58:08.840 --> 00:58:13.000
Joan said, She's out in very, very rough, heavily wooded lands.104800:58:14.079 --> 00:58:15.840
Are giraffes usually dangerous to people?104900:58:16.280 --> 00:58:19.320
I didn't think so, but maybe they are really big105000:58:19.760 --> 00:58:22.559
and there things are dangerous to people in general.105100:58:22.840 --> 00:58:30.840
Are giraffes dangerous to people? Girafts are not naturally aggressive105200:58:30.960 --> 00:58:33.719
or predatory to humans, but they are incredibly large wild105300:58:33.760 --> 00:58:35.880
animals that can cause serious or fatal harm if they105400:58:35.880 --> 00:58:36.639
feel threatened.105500:58:37.239 --> 00:58:38.599
Is that an AI summary?105600:58:39.320 --> 00:58:42.280
Yeah, So what it means is they eat us. Yeah,105700:58:42.400 --> 00:58:48.039
it actually means The Texas Hill Country has one of105800:58:48.039 --> 00:58:51.679
the largest concentrations of exotic captive animals in the county country.105900:58:52.079 --> 00:58:55.519
Real County Sheriff Nathan Johnson said the mild climate and106000:58:55.599 --> 00:58:57.920
rugged terrain seems to serve as a good stand and106100:58:58.280 --> 00:59:03.519
for most of the animal's native environments. He rattled off106200:59:03.519 --> 00:59:05.760
the list of animals that have gone missing over the years,106300:59:06.079 --> 00:59:10.239
especially after floods, but said this was his first giraffe.106400:59:11.079 --> 00:59:11.639
Yeah.106500:59:11.719 --> 00:59:15.199
I feel like you'd remember, you know. Yeah. Quote, I've106600:59:15.199 --> 00:59:18.239
had willed to beasts, I've had water buffalo, I've had monkeys,106700:59:18.280 --> 00:59:22.239
I've had zebras, all go missing. Johnson said, sometimes we106800:59:22.280 --> 00:59:27.000
recover them and sometimes we don't. Geese, while the middle106900:59:27.000 --> 00:59:30.440
of Texas is not a giraffe's native environment, Jones said107000:59:30.480 --> 00:59:32.840
Gracie should be able to find plenty of leaves and107100:59:32.880 --> 00:59:35.920
other vegetation to eat. He said other animals were not107200:59:36.159 --> 00:59:40.039
likely to bother her. I think that's very fair. Just107300:59:40.079 --> 00:59:42.239
a warthog sees that. It's like, never mind, I'm going107400:59:42.320 --> 00:59:45.280
to go over here now. Yeah. Joanes said he had107500:59:45.519 --> 00:59:49.119
initially had helicopters searching an area of seventy seven five107600:59:49.199 --> 00:59:52.320
hundred acres with no luck. A few days later, there107700:59:52.360 --> 00:59:54.519
was a report that Gracie was spotted to the south,107800:59:54.599 --> 00:59:57.519
but by the time they could search the area, Jones said,107900:59:57.599 --> 01:00:00.920
she was already gone. Quote, we're all always two three108001:00:01.039 --> 01:00:03.480
days late for where the information is coming from, so108101:00:03.719 --> 01:00:05.960
that makes it tough, Joan said.108201:00:06.239 --> 01:00:08.360
Get faster information, I don't understand.108301:00:08.480 --> 01:00:09.760
Yeah, and a faster helicopter.108401:00:10.119 --> 01:00:13.400
Yeah, it takes two to three days to get everything mobilized.108501:00:13.440 --> 01:00:15.039
What's going on, guys?108601:00:16.119 --> 01:00:18.760
Oh, by the way, the real county sheriff has a108701:00:18.800 --> 01:00:22.480
handlebar mustache, so rock on, sir, yay, he looks like108801:00:22.519 --> 01:00:26.599
an old timey sheriff. Wow, a little bit, I mean,108901:00:26.599 --> 01:00:30.679
not like comically, but well, I hope Gracie the giraffe109001:00:30.719 --> 01:00:34.719
has found well me too. This article is only a109101:00:34.800 --> 01:00:36.840
day old of when we're reading it, so it's like109201:00:37.639 --> 01:00:42.639
this just happened. Animal stuff. Man, there's always something weird109301:00:42.719 --> 01:00:43.679
happening with animals.109401:00:43.920 --> 01:00:45.960
Yeah, yeah, I mean I think that they should let109501:00:46.039 --> 01:00:48.760
her be outside in grace and not take her back.109601:00:48.840 --> 01:00:53.079
But you know, I think that everybody's just in denial109701:00:53.119 --> 01:00:55.480
of the fact that she's obviously heading to Austin, like109801:00:55.639 --> 01:01:02.400
everybody else seems to be. Everyone's moving to Austin. Yeah,109901:01:02.480 --> 01:01:04.719
we're gonna take a quick break and when we get back,110001:01:05.159 --> 01:01:08.440
I'm going to talk about a brand new sourdough bread recipe,110101:01:09.920 --> 01:01:26.159
oh right after this. So apparently it's possible Chell already110201:01:26.239 --> 01:01:33.440
heard about this new sourdough bread. Did did? Did? Did110301:01:33.519 --> 01:01:34.159
you hear about this?110401:01:35.639 --> 01:01:36.159
I think so?110501:01:36.440 --> 01:01:38.920
But maybe how many? How many news articles are you110601:01:38.920 --> 01:01:42.239
getting about sourdough bread in your in your day to day?110701:01:42.400 --> 01:01:43.599
Like a lot of them?110801:01:43.880 --> 01:01:47.519
Yeah? And I want I want in your algorithm.110901:01:47.679 --> 01:01:50.480
Yeah, that's just what I get. Sourdough bread rests.111001:01:52.559 --> 01:01:55.639
Well. This is from the Guardian. The headline is and111101:01:55.719 --> 01:01:59.039
this is one that definitely gave me pause. Scientists make111201:01:59.159 --> 01:02:03.199
sourdough bread using yeast found in a five thousand year111301:02:03.199 --> 01:02:07.119
old mummy. Yeah was this what you heard about?111401:02:07.400 --> 01:02:07.800
I think so?111501:02:07.960 --> 01:02:09.119
Yeah, Yeah you think so?111601:02:10.639 --> 01:02:12.559
It could have been Yeah, it could have been anything.111701:02:12.800 --> 01:02:16.679
There's a lot of mummies. I don't know. Scientists have111801:02:16.719 --> 01:02:20.480
baked a sour dough loaf of bread using yeast strains111901:02:20.519 --> 01:02:24.000
harvested from a five thousand year old mummy and now112001:02:24.079 --> 01:02:26.119
planned to see if they can use them to brew112101:02:26.239 --> 01:02:30.440
beer too. That's where I I mean, where would you112201:02:30.480 --> 01:02:31.400
head with it? You know?112301:02:31.880 --> 01:02:35.079
I mean, like, I don't really like beer, so probably112401:02:35.119 --> 01:02:40.039
not there, but yeah, totally go for it, guys.112501:02:40.400 --> 01:02:47.360
Sure, if ever there was a true manifestation of doctor112601:02:47.400 --> 01:02:50.679
Malcolm from Jurassic Park, everybody was so busy wondering if112701:02:50.679 --> 01:02:52.599
they could they never stopped to wonder if they should112801:02:52.880 --> 01:02:55.280
exactly kind of what's going on here?112901:02:55.519 --> 01:02:57.119
Yeah?113001:02:57.239 --> 01:03:00.599
Now, but the real question is would you eat the113101:03:00.639 --> 01:03:04.280
sour dough bread? Would you have a bite?113201:03:04.519 --> 01:03:08.199
Sure? Okay, yeah, it's just yeast.113301:03:08.519 --> 01:03:10.880
Little butter or like on it? Or what are you thinking?113401:03:11.000 --> 01:03:13.199
Well? I mean definitely some butter on it.113501:03:13.679 --> 01:03:14.719
Butter or margarine.113601:03:15.280 --> 01:03:18.960
I mean I prefer butter if possible, but margarine. Maybe113701:03:19.400 --> 01:03:22.000
since this is really special, maybe I could have some113801:03:22.280 --> 01:03:25.039
like jam on it too, on the butter.113901:03:25.559 --> 01:03:31.320
Yeah, like jam made from like like ancient monster.114001:03:32.840 --> 01:03:35.199
I mean maybe not an ancient monster, but some sort114101:03:35.199 --> 01:03:36.760
of ancient creature. Definitely.114201:03:37.000 --> 01:03:40.559
Okay, okay, all right, see you're adventurous.114301:03:40.840 --> 01:03:41.599
Yeah.114401:03:41.880 --> 01:03:45.559
The yeast came from Atzi the Iceman, a famous corpse114501:03:45.639 --> 01:03:49.559
remarkably preserved by being frozen in alpine ice near the114601:03:49.599 --> 01:03:54.079
Italy Austria border until he was discovered in nineteen ninety one.114701:03:54.920 --> 01:03:57.280
I don't know why I mean, he's been there for114801:03:57.320 --> 01:03:59.760
thousands of years, five thousand years. But the idea that114901:03:59.800 --> 01:04:02.199
they discovered him in nineteen ninety one and just now115001:04:02.280 --> 01:04:04.519
made bread from the youth makes makes it weirder to me.115101:04:04.559 --> 01:04:08.239
I'm like, I'm like, oh man, it's old. Yeah, it's115201:04:08.280 --> 01:04:09.679
really old, but it feels old.115301:04:10.079 --> 01:04:12.519
Yeah, Like that's weird, guys.115401:04:12.480 --> 01:04:15.880
It's a little strange. Yeah, that's the only part of115501:04:15.920 --> 01:04:20.800
this that's strange. Asi has been the subject of intense115601:04:20.840 --> 01:04:23.639
study since he was found, and has shed much light115701:04:23.719 --> 01:04:28.880
on prehistoric European people and their way of life. Oh115801:04:28.599 --> 01:04:33.599
I'm I'm really curious why this happened at all and115901:04:33.679 --> 01:04:35.239
why it was anybody's idea.116001:04:35.599 --> 01:04:36.079
I don't know.116101:04:36.280 --> 01:04:44.639
So scientists have been recently studying the micro organisms preserved116201:04:44.679 --> 01:04:48.480
in and on Azi's remains or Utsi's sorry, Utzi's there's116301:04:48.480 --> 01:04:52.960
an umlat utzis. One unexpected result of that work was116401:04:53.000 --> 01:04:56.280
the researchers extracted yeast and then used it to make116501:04:56.360 --> 01:05:02.000
sour dough bread. Unexpected result like did they accidentally make116601:05:02.079 --> 01:05:04.639
sourdough bread? Like what they were?116701:05:04.719 --> 01:05:06.960
Just like we have all this flour and all the116801:05:07.119 --> 01:05:09.920
ingredients for sourdo bit bread, just sitting here, and then116901:05:10.000 --> 01:05:11.719
all of a sudden, the yeast just got it and117001:05:11.800 --> 01:05:14.000
they were like, oh no, and then they like mixed117101:05:14.039 --> 01:05:15.880
it up trying to get the yeast down. Then they're like, wait,117201:05:15.920 --> 01:05:17.159
is this gonna be bread? Now?117301:05:18.360 --> 01:05:20.480
Well, we may as well see what happens.117401:05:20.360 --> 01:05:21.199
Put it in the oven.117501:05:21.559 --> 01:05:26.559
Yeah, we're all losing our grants. Yeah. Are you a117601:05:26.559 --> 01:05:27.679
sour dough bread person?117701:05:27.840 --> 01:05:29.400
I like sourdough b read. Yeah.117801:05:29.400 --> 01:05:30.320
What's your favorite bread?117901:05:31.079 --> 01:05:32.079
I have a favorite bread.118001:05:32.719 --> 01:05:36.760
Really? Yeah, you said that so sadly, like you're not118101:05:36.800 --> 01:05:37.639
allowed to have one.118201:05:38.039 --> 01:05:39.079
Yeah, I don't know.118301:05:40.119 --> 01:05:44.000
The guy told me no, yeah, the bread guy.118401:05:44.320 --> 01:05:47.199
Yeah, yeah, cord order something.118501:05:48.519 --> 01:05:53.000
Quote. Eventually we obtained a completely normal dough that rose118601:05:53.039 --> 01:05:57.039
within twenty four hours, basically just like with ordinary yeast.118701:05:57.599 --> 01:06:00.880
We made some really good dough with it. Why you118801:06:01.000 --> 01:06:05.920
made it weird? Microbiologist Mohammad Sarhan, who had said that118901:06:05.960 --> 01:06:09.880
in a statement on the website Iraq Research, where he119001:06:09.960 --> 01:06:11.960
works for the Institute for Mummy Studies.119101:06:13.280 --> 01:06:16.159
They were probably really pleased that you made bread, So119201:06:16.320 --> 01:06:19.320
you were trying so hard to like eventually come up119301:06:19.320 --> 01:06:20.440
with the bread recipe.119401:06:20.480 --> 01:06:24.599
That word yeah, quote, I've never baked bread before and119501:06:24.719 --> 01:06:28.079
it showed so the result definitely had room for improvement.119601:06:28.400 --> 01:06:32.400
But as I said there, these were our very first experiments.119701:06:32.519 --> 01:06:37.360
Sarhan added, now homemade beer could also be on the menu,119801:06:37.480 --> 01:06:41.960
because why wouldn't it be. I guess quote, we want119901:06:42.000 --> 01:06:46.119
to pursue this further and involve specialized research teams from120001:06:46.199 --> 01:06:49.000
the food sector in the process. Bread is currently one120101:06:49.000 --> 01:06:52.360
of the obvious applications we're considering. Another is beer. We've120201:06:52.400 --> 01:06:56.599
already discussed this with experts from the German brewer Vayan Stefan.120301:06:57.320 --> 01:07:00.519
He said, Okay, what I don't understand is what is120401:07:00.559 --> 01:07:06.480
the Like, is there a reason that this should be done?120501:07:07.159 --> 01:07:09.519
I don't think so. Like, it's not like we don't120601:07:09.519 --> 01:07:11.880
have yeast. It's not like we're ever gonna like run120701:07:11.920 --> 01:07:16.639
out of yeast and like, so I don't really understand why,120801:07:17.519 --> 01:07:19.679
except that they could do it. And I wish I120901:07:19.679 --> 01:07:22.559
could just get paid to just make bread out of121001:07:23.119 --> 01:07:24.639
yeast from old things.121101:07:26.079 --> 01:07:27.880
I mean, I guess that the idea is like that121201:07:27.920 --> 01:07:30.320
it might help them understand what yeast was like a121301:07:30.360 --> 01:07:35.079
long time ago. I guess I'm just saying.121401:07:35.960 --> 01:07:38.119
I mean, like, couldn't you just look at the yeast121501:07:38.159 --> 01:07:40.519
and study it and see how it compares to the121601:07:40.599 --> 01:07:43.880
yeast that you know in the present, and then that121701:07:43.920 --> 01:07:44.519
would be good.121801:07:45.199 --> 01:07:48.639
Yeah. Yeah, But then I guess, you know, chuckleheads like121901:07:48.679 --> 01:07:49.960
us wouldn't be talking about it.122001:07:50.599 --> 01:07:51.159
That's true.122101:07:52.400 --> 01:07:57.039
The harvested yeast are harvested yeasts only live in cold conditions,122201:07:57.239 --> 01:08:00.280
so are believed to have entered Outsi's body at some122301:08:00.360 --> 01:08:03.920
point after he died. Genetic analysis suggested they entered his122401:08:04.000 --> 01:08:10.079
body relatively soon after death, So this is interesting. Ootsi122501:08:10.239 --> 01:08:13.920
has long been the focus of fascination. His body preserves122601:08:13.960 --> 01:08:17.800
the oldest tattoos ever discovered, with a total of sixty122701:08:17.960 --> 01:08:18.960
one markings.122801:08:19.359 --> 01:08:19.720
Cool.122901:08:21.159 --> 01:08:24.159
There is also huge interest in how he died high123001:08:24.279 --> 01:08:27.000
up in the mountains in an icy wilderness about five123101:08:27.039 --> 01:08:30.359
three hundred years ago, because he appears to have been123201:08:30.479 --> 01:08:35.079
shot in the back by an arrow in what is123301:08:35.119 --> 01:08:40.600
often described as one of the world's oldest cold case murders. Wow,123401:08:40.760 --> 01:08:44.119
hot cold case. He was frozen.123501:08:44.600 --> 01:08:47.279
Yeah.123601:08:47.319 --> 01:08:49.680
The fact that they're like, we now, can we make beer?123701:08:49.720 --> 01:08:52.800
We're talking to the I guess the excitement I think123801:08:52.880 --> 01:08:56.439
I'm trying to like put myself in this. I think123901:08:56.479 --> 01:09:00.640
the excitement comes from just the idea that it's actually124001:09:01.119 --> 01:09:04.600
yeast from five thousand years ago. So just the fact124101:09:04.640 --> 01:09:08.119
that it can do things yeast does is very exciting.124201:09:09.880 --> 01:09:12.399
I mean, that's what I'm guessing. The point is, I guess.124301:09:12.439 --> 01:09:15.279
So, I mean, the thing is it's only yeast from124401:09:15.319 --> 01:09:17.359
five thousand years ago for like a little while, and124501:09:17.399 --> 01:09:21.640
then it's not anymore because probably gets more yeast than124601:09:21.680 --> 01:09:24.640
things and it dies and it has little babies. I124701:09:24.640 --> 01:09:25.720
don't know how yeast works.124801:09:27.199 --> 01:09:32.079
I'm not hugely familiar with yeast myself, but I just124901:09:32.079 --> 01:09:33.960
think it's faster. Like, we're really excited. We talked to125001:09:34.000 --> 01:09:39.800
a brewery about making beer from it. I'm like, cool, yeah, thanks, sure, guys, Yeah, yeah,125101:09:40.039 --> 01:09:41.199
you're gonna talk about.125201:09:40.920 --> 01:09:42.880
This in like a couple hundred years and be like125301:09:42.920 --> 01:09:47.239
people are really weird then. And the dead body. Yeah,125401:09:47.600 --> 01:09:48.920
I mean bread whatever.125501:09:49.880 --> 01:09:52.039
I'm glad we're all ai now anyway.125601:09:52.119 --> 01:09:53.560
Yeah, we don't do stuff like that.125701:09:54.439 --> 01:09:58.439
Ah, the Singularity. We're gonna take a quick break, and125801:09:58.479 --> 01:10:01.880
when we come back, we're going to talk about photos125901:10:01.920 --> 01:10:15.119
that reveal strange sea creatures right after this. All right,126001:10:15.319 --> 01:10:21.199
So we're heading now deep under the ocean, and I126101:10:21.199 --> 01:10:23.079
don't feel like I have a lot of knowledge of126201:10:23.119 --> 01:10:26.600
your feelings on deep sea life.126301:10:26.560 --> 01:10:32.199
Shell it's usually very cute. That's that's what I got.126401:10:32.800 --> 01:10:34.640
You don't think they get kind of weird when you126501:10:34.640 --> 01:10:36.039
get really deep in the ocean.126601:10:36.239 --> 01:10:40.319
They're so cute though, and they have like lots of126701:10:40.359 --> 01:10:41.479
teeth and.126801:10:41.479 --> 01:10:49.600
They but that's just the more to smile at you, exactly.126901:10:49.760 --> 01:10:53.840
And the day can't see because it's so dark, so127001:10:53.880 --> 01:10:54.920
they glow.127101:10:54.640 --> 01:10:56.800
And stuff, and the or they just don't have eyes127201:10:56.880 --> 01:10:58.199
because they're like why bother.127301:10:58.479 --> 01:11:02.680
Exactly or something. And they're just super cool. And they127401:11:02.720 --> 01:11:04.920
can live with lots and lots of pressure, which is127501:11:04.920 --> 01:11:05.560
pretty cool.127601:11:06.239 --> 01:11:08.319
I mean, so can I. But nobody's ever going, wow,127701:11:08.560 --> 01:11:09.960
you live under so much pressure?127801:11:10.600 --> 01:11:13.000
Fine, wow, you live under so much pressure.127901:11:14.520 --> 01:11:15.000
Thank you.128001:11:15.680 --> 01:11:18.720
Of course I recognize you. I know what's happening.128101:11:19.399 --> 01:11:26.319
Oh you're too nice. Well this is from vox dot128201:11:26.359 --> 01:11:30.560
com and the headline is photos reveal strange sea creatures128301:11:30.600 --> 01:11:32.920
that scientists had never seen before.128401:11:34.640 --> 01:11:35.439
Yeah, they're down.128501:11:37.000 --> 01:11:39.960
And scientists say they found more than one thoy one128601:11:40.039 --> 01:11:44.159
hundred new marine species over the last year, emphasizing how128701:11:44.279 --> 01:11:49.520
unexplored the ocean really is. Yeah, have you heard about uh?128801:11:49.560 --> 01:11:53.439
I think it's Peter Teel, the billionaire investor. He's going128901:11:53.479 --> 01:11:56.359
like super all in on. I heard this somewhere, as129001:11:56.399 --> 01:11:58.560
I haven't fact checked it or anything, that he's like129101:11:58.600 --> 01:12:00.720
going all in on data center is being built in129201:12:00.760 --> 01:12:01.239
the ocean.129301:12:02.119 --> 01:12:02.920
I did not hear that.129401:12:03.079 --> 01:12:05.760
No, that's I heard that. It could have been a129501:12:05.800 --> 01:12:07.880
rumor or it could be real. It sounds like something129601:12:08.119 --> 01:12:10.359
that you know they would try. But that way they129701:12:10.399 --> 01:12:12.800
can use the natural like cooling of the ocean and129801:12:12.840 --> 01:12:15.079
blah blah blah blah blah.129901:12:15.600 --> 01:12:17.000
I don't know if that's gonna work.130001:12:17.079 --> 01:12:20.319
But well, I mean, I mean it's it's just a130101:12:20.319 --> 01:12:22.640
thought because they're already like workers in the ocean and130201:12:22.640 --> 01:12:25.159
they build stuff in the ocean already, So it's not130301:12:25.199 --> 01:12:27.359
like it's impossible as long as you can get you know,130401:12:27.560 --> 01:12:30.520
good data infrastructure and you've got those underground.130501:12:30.520 --> 01:12:32.640
I mean, you've got those underwater cables with all the130601:12:32.680 --> 01:12:34.560
Internet and so I guess you can just kind.130701:12:34.399 --> 01:12:38.640
Of yeah, so it definitely seems, you know, more reachable130801:12:38.720 --> 01:12:41.000
than putting them in space at least anytime soon.130901:12:41.399 --> 01:12:43.279
Yes, that's true.131001:12:43.520 --> 01:12:49.239
So yeah, but the ocean is is a vast and131101:12:49.399 --> 01:12:53.359
strange place. Shelle I'm gonna show you my screen so131201:12:53.399 --> 01:12:56.680
you can see some of these creatures. You probably think131301:12:56.680 --> 01:12:57.439
that's cute fish.131401:12:58.119 --> 01:13:01.760
I want to see more of him, like a like131501:13:01.800 --> 01:13:03.079
a front view of him.131601:13:03.720 --> 01:13:05.479
Well I don't. I don't think that that's an option.131701:13:05.680 --> 01:13:09.439
Well, then I don't know for sure if he's cute. Wow,131801:13:09.720 --> 01:13:10.680
I think he's cute.131901:13:11.199 --> 01:13:13.039
I had a feeling you might. Ah.132001:13:14.199 --> 01:13:14.640
So uh.132101:13:15.359 --> 01:13:18.239
It lives in a glass castle deep under the sea.132201:13:18.600 --> 01:13:20.840
It's not a character from The Little Mermaid, but a132301:13:20.960 --> 01:13:25.600
very real, very mysterious marine worm known as a dal132401:13:25.680 --> 01:13:30.960
husiela yabuki. The worm resides inside a glass sea sponge,132501:13:31.279 --> 01:13:34.399
a simple marine animal that forms a glass like skeleton132601:13:34.439 --> 01:13:36.760
in the cold, dark waters off the coast of Japan.132701:13:37.359 --> 01:13:40.159
And it's just one of a massive trove of marine132801:13:40.199 --> 01:13:45.800
animal species that scientists say they recently discovered. What do132901:13:45.840 --> 01:13:47.199
you think is that cute or not cute?133001:13:47.399 --> 01:13:49.800
It's kind of cute. It kind of looks like a133101:13:49.840 --> 01:13:53.760
little bit like like a like a centipede or something. Yeah,133201:13:54.000 --> 01:13:59.359
little things coming out of it. Yeah, red and stuff.133301:14:00.199 --> 01:14:02.520
And it's sort of Japanese, which makes you happy.133401:14:02.800 --> 01:14:04.920
Yeah.133501:14:05.000 --> 01:14:07.479
This week, the Ocean Census, a project that is set133601:14:07.520 --> 01:14:10.479
out to accelerate the discovery of sea life, announced that133701:14:10.520 --> 01:14:15.520
it had found one twenty one previously unknown ocean species133801:14:15.560 --> 01:14:19.279
since last April. That marks a massive jump in and133901:14:19.359 --> 01:14:22.600
the number of newly discovered marine species in a single year,134001:14:22.960 --> 01:14:26.159
according to Oliver Steed's, director of the Ocean Census, a134101:14:26.239 --> 01:14:29.359
joint mission of the UK based nonprofit Nectin in Japan's134201:14:29.439 --> 01:14:33.880
largest philanthropic organization, the Nipon Foundation. Some of the other134301:14:34.039 --> 01:14:39.119
newly found creatures include fish, rays, sponges, and soft corals.134401:14:40.640 --> 01:14:44.000
Though it may seem that Earth is already largely explored,134501:14:44.760 --> 01:14:47.840
the vast majority of animal species on Earth, perhaps as134601:14:47.880 --> 01:14:53.560
many as ninety percent of them remain undiscovered. Ninety percent134701:14:53.600 --> 01:14:55.960
sounds a little high, but I could be it could134801:14:56.279 --> 01:14:58.359
I could go either way. It could be true.134901:14:58.560 --> 01:15:02.680
I think I think it's true. There's just but there's135001:15:02.720 --> 01:15:03.520
a lot of water.135101:15:04.960 --> 01:15:08.520
That's true. I mean the ocean, especially the deeper you get,135201:15:08.760 --> 01:15:12.920
it's just impossible to see it all. I mean, eventually, yeah,135301:15:12.960 --> 01:15:17.600
maybe quote this is really a planetary blind spot, said135401:15:17.600 --> 01:15:20.520
Steve's who also who's also the founder and chief executive135501:15:20.520 --> 01:15:23.920
of Nectin. The Ocean Census, which launched three years ago,135601:15:24.079 --> 01:15:26.399
is trying to close the gap in the marine realm135701:15:26.600 --> 01:15:29.600
by exploring remote ocean regions with the help of high135801:15:29.600 --> 01:15:33.840
tech submersibles and taxonomists, and to that end, this large135901:15:33.880 --> 01:15:37.800
batch of species is an important step forward with one136001:15:37.920 --> 01:15:41.600
large caveat. While the search for life beyond what was it? What?136101:15:42.039 --> 01:15:44.720
Oh? What's the large Well.136201:15:44.600 --> 01:15:45.560
Now I'm not going to tell you.136301:15:45.840 --> 01:15:46.560
Oh damn.136401:15:47.079 --> 01:15:51.279
Yeah. Patience is a virtue, while the search for life136501:15:51.279 --> 01:15:55.319
beyond Earth has been a magnetic, a magnet for public attention.136601:15:55.800 --> 01:15:58.399
Missions like the Ocean Census reveal that there is a136701:15:58.399 --> 01:16:00.840
lot we still don't know about life on our home planet,136801:16:01.319 --> 01:16:05.840
much of which looks pretty darn alien. Ooh yeah, Chell's136901:16:05.880 --> 01:16:09.399
looking at the small ribbon worm. Most critters that the137001:16:09.439 --> 01:16:14.279
expeditions revealed are pretty small, like this striking ribbon worm shell.137101:16:14.319 --> 01:16:16.880
You would agree, you'd call that ribbon worm striking, right.137201:16:17.000 --> 01:16:20.199
I think it's pretty striking. I can't tell what's going137301:16:20.279 --> 01:16:20.720
on with his.137401:16:20.720 --> 01:16:23.520
Head, yeah, or which one is its head?137501:16:23.880 --> 01:16:27.239
I think the one with the thing is its head.137601:16:27.319 --> 01:16:28.960
Yeah, but it might not be. You don't know.137701:16:29.319 --> 01:16:30.039
Yeah, it's true.137801:16:31.239 --> 01:16:34.720
Found in the waters near timor Leste in Southeast Asia.137901:16:34.840 --> 01:16:37.520
The worm's bright colors may be a signal to predators138001:16:37.520 --> 01:16:41.039
that it produces defensive toxins. According to a press release138101:16:41.039 --> 01:16:44.560
announcing the new findings, such toxins may be useful in138201:16:44.640 --> 01:16:49.119
drug development. Scientists have previously investigated chemicals produced by similar138301:16:49.159 --> 01:16:53.079
worms to treat cognitive disorders such as Alzheimer's disease.138401:16:53.520 --> 01:16:53.760
Hmm.138501:16:54.880 --> 01:16:57.199
I want to mention, by the way, this is why138601:16:57.239 --> 01:17:00.000
I always say, like, I can appreciate people who want138701:17:00.079 --> 01:17:03.359
who like believe in nature as like, you know, being138801:17:03.399 --> 01:17:06.239
like a naturropath. They're like, oh, but the solution everything138901:17:06.279 --> 01:17:11.119
is in nature, okay. But nature wants us to be dead.139001:17:11.800 --> 01:17:14.399
Nature wants us to be dead so badly that they'll139101:17:14.399 --> 01:17:16.199
give you an ailment and be like, well, if you139201:17:16.199 --> 01:17:18.600
can find this one worm at the bottom of the139301:17:18.720 --> 01:17:22.840
ocean on the other side of the planet, you can139401:17:22.920 --> 01:17:29.880
be cured. Yeah, yeah, just saying, you know. Remarkably, the139501:17:29.920 --> 01:17:34.000
discovery effort also uncovered larger animals, which have likely managed139601:17:34.039 --> 01:17:37.479
to evade detection because they live at such great depths139701:17:37.520 --> 01:17:41.760
and in less explored regions. The most charismatic among them139801:17:41.880 --> 01:17:50.239
is perhaps the new species of ghost shark that scientists139901:17:50.279 --> 01:17:53.880
found off the coast of Australia. Though distantly related to140001:17:53.920 --> 01:17:57.159
sharks and rays, ghost sharks are not actually sharks at all,140101:17:57.520 --> 01:18:01.039
but chimeras or chimeras, how you wanna say, A deep140201:18:01.079 --> 01:18:04.720
sea chimeras a deep sea fish with a skeleton made140301:18:04.720 --> 01:18:07.520
of cartilage instead of bone. So this is the one140401:18:07.560 --> 01:18:08.800
you were looking at that you weren't sure if it140501:18:08.800 --> 01:18:10.199
was cute because you need to see it head on.140601:18:10.640 --> 01:18:12.600
Now that I'm looking at it again, I love it.140701:18:13.079 --> 01:18:15.640
Oh do you love it? Because now you know what's140801:18:15.640 --> 01:18:16.279
a ghost shark?140901:18:16.520 --> 01:18:19.399
No? I love its eye for some reason. I think141001:18:19.399 --> 01:18:20.520
it's really cute.141101:18:20.840 --> 01:18:24.880
Okay. In the same region, scientists also found unknown species141201:18:24.920 --> 01:18:28.640
of ray. Would you call that a cute ray?141301:18:29.319 --> 01:18:31.920
Yeah? I think it's pretty good. I mean I've seen141401:18:32.000 --> 01:18:32.880
Raisa look kind.141501:18:32.720 --> 01:18:37.760
Of like that before, and an unfamiliar example of what's141601:18:37.800 --> 01:18:42.199
known as a cat shark. They're bottom dwellers with slender bodies,141701:18:42.239 --> 01:18:47.479
and some of them apparently have a feline appearance. The141801:18:48.439 --> 01:18:51.159
writer notes, I'm not seeing it in this particular fish,141901:18:51.199 --> 01:18:52.720
which was found deep underwater in.142001:18:52.720 --> 01:18:55.119
Australia, good because I also don't see it.142101:18:55.800 --> 01:18:57.760
Yeah, I don't really see it looking like a feline142201:18:57.800 --> 01:19:01.079
much either. No other than it appears disinterested in having142301:19:01.079 --> 01:19:01.840
its photo taken.142401:19:02.159 --> 01:19:07.239
Mmmm, it is on. It looks like it's dead. Maybe142501:19:07.479 --> 01:19:08.119
where is it?142601:19:08.119 --> 01:19:08.479
It's dead?142701:19:08.880 --> 01:19:12.560
Yeah, that's why it's disinterested, if.142801:19:12.439 --> 01:19:15.439
You say so. Always defending them. But we're gonna take142901:19:15.439 --> 01:19:17.439
a quick break and when we get back, we'll look143001:19:17.439 --> 01:19:20.039
at some more deep sea creatures and have Michelle rate143101:19:20.079 --> 01:19:33.279
them as cute or not cute right after this. All right, Michelle,143201:19:33.279 --> 01:19:36.960
you ready to rate some more deep sea creatures as143301:19:37.039 --> 01:19:38.199
cute or not cute?143401:19:38.279 --> 01:19:38.680
Sure?143501:19:39.159 --> 01:19:43.159
All right? Uh, as I mentioned, we're on vox dot com.143601:19:43.520 --> 01:19:46.199
Then there are animals that don't look like animals at all,143701:19:46.319 --> 01:19:49.600
like this unfamiliar sea sponge found in the South Atlantic,143801:19:49.680 --> 01:19:53.000
not far from Antarctica, belonging to a group of animals143901:19:53.039 --> 01:19:57.239
known as the ping pong ball sponges. I guess I144001:19:57.279 --> 01:20:02.079
see the resemblance. I guess Ooh. This animal is carnivorous144101:20:02.319 --> 01:20:05.800
and uses those balls, which are covered in tiny velcrow144201:20:05.920 --> 01:20:10.479
like hooks, to entrap unsuspecting prey drifting by, such as144301:20:10.520 --> 01:20:11.720
small crustaceans.144401:20:13.159 --> 01:20:13.560
That's me.144501:20:14.399 --> 01:20:16.640
It looks like a like a bunch of little balloons144601:20:16.680 --> 01:20:17.439
stuck to a thing.144701:20:17.880 --> 01:20:20.479
I guess I still think it looks like grapes.144801:20:21.680 --> 01:20:24.520
Okay, but is it cute? That's what's most important.144901:20:26.159 --> 01:20:29.039
I like crapes, so yes.145001:20:29.000 --> 01:20:34.039
So yes, okay. Also in the South Atlantic, scientist you145101:20:34.039 --> 01:20:34.439
don't like that.145201:20:34.800 --> 01:20:35.800
No, I like it a lot.145301:20:36.119 --> 01:20:40.199
Oh my gosh, it's just this. She just likes all145401:20:40.279 --> 01:20:45.159
of it. Man, And I'm gonna try and show you this.145501:20:46.039 --> 01:20:47.119
Let's see.145601:20:49.680 --> 01:20:50.680
What's happening.145701:20:51.720 --> 01:20:52.840
Just mind your own business.145801:20:53.119 --> 01:20:53.960
I'm confused.145901:20:54.119 --> 01:20:59.199
It's fine, you're fine. Nothing's happening. Oops. I messed everything up.146001:20:59.600 --> 01:21:01.960
Why did I? I decided to do this. Okay, it's fine,146101:21:02.000 --> 01:21:04.640
it's fine. I broke it. You can just say it.146201:21:04.880 --> 01:21:05.800
I ruined it.146301:21:05.800 --> 01:21:06.279
It's okay.146401:21:06.840 --> 01:21:11.359
Oh. Also in the South Atlantic, scientists found an unknown146501:21:11.439 --> 01:21:15.039
variety of sea pen, a kind of soft coral, more146601:21:15.079 --> 01:21:18.880
than twenty six hundred feet below surface. Like you're like, wow,146701:21:21.359 --> 01:21:25.399
it's really cool. It looks kind of like a feather,146801:21:25.560 --> 01:21:30.439
like a like a duster, but upside down. Yeah, it's146901:21:30.800 --> 01:21:34.560
it's kind of salmon colored, although that might be inappropriate147001:21:34.680 --> 01:21:38.640
to say, you know, since the sea creature. Yeah, oh,147101:21:38.680 --> 01:21:41.319
this is interesting. It's not one individual animal, but a147201:21:41.359 --> 01:21:46.439
colony of thousands of genetically identical polyps. Soft bodied creatures147301:21:46.479 --> 01:21:47.760
with tentacles.147401:21:48.359 --> 01:21:50.399
Oh like it as much now, Oh.147501:21:50.279 --> 01:21:51.319
Because it's a bunch of them.147601:21:51.600 --> 01:21:52.239
Yeah.147701:21:52.279 --> 01:21:54.199
Does that bother you that it's a bunch of little things?147801:21:54.640 --> 01:21:55.920
Yeah, a little man.147901:21:57.039 --> 01:22:01.520
I get that. Yeah, I get that. It's okay. I148001:22:01.520 --> 01:22:07.079
guess it's okay. Pow. We'll get through it. We'll get148101:22:07.079 --> 01:22:12.600
through it together. But let's see. The announcement from Ocean148201:22:12.720 --> 01:22:16.800
Census says that scientists quote discovered more than eleven hundred148301:22:17.920 --> 01:22:20.720
new species in a single year. But those words must148401:22:20.720 --> 01:22:24.600
be taken with a grain of salt. Yeah, uh oh,148501:22:24.800 --> 01:22:25.399
fact check.148601:22:26.000 --> 01:22:26.199
Yeah.148701:22:26.920 --> 01:22:29.920
Proving that a species is new to science is difficult.148801:22:30.079 --> 01:22:34.560
It typically requires that taxonomists comb through existing museum collections148901:22:34.720 --> 01:22:38.920
and academic literature to demonstrate that, based on anatomical, genetic,149001:22:39.079 --> 01:22:42.720
or other traits, what they have has not been documented before.149101:22:44.239 --> 01:22:45.239
I would have thought you could.149201:22:45.039 --> 01:22:47.680
Just google it, yeah, or like look it up online149301:22:47.720 --> 01:22:50.920
in the big resource center where you have all the149401:22:50.960 --> 01:22:52.199
animals in the ocean.149501:22:52.880 --> 01:22:55.119
I would hope that most of the stuff has been captured,149601:22:55.119 --> 01:22:56.520
and it's not like every time you have to go149701:22:56.560 --> 01:22:58.880
to all these museums all over the world, like every time.149801:23:00.800 --> 01:23:03.960
Maybe that's how they stay open, though, that's fair.149901:23:04.640 --> 01:23:07.800
They can then submit their evidence for peer review in publication,150001:23:08.239 --> 01:23:11.199
the typical process through which a species is formally described150101:23:11.199 --> 01:23:14.880
and officially named, thus becoming a new species. Many of150201:23:14.880 --> 01:23:17.640
the discoveries announced by the Ocean Census, however, have not150301:23:17.760 --> 01:23:20.479
yet gone through that level of due diligence and have150401:23:20.600 --> 01:23:23.880
not been formally described. According to Greg Raus, a marine150501:23:23.880 --> 01:23:28.159
taxonomist at the Script's Institute of Oceanography, that means it's150601:23:28.199 --> 01:23:31.119
not clear that all of those species are in fact150701:23:31.640 --> 01:23:35.720
new to science. Okay, I like this to think this150801:23:35.960 --> 01:23:37.640
article is just like, now, slow your role.150901:23:38.680 --> 01:23:39.800
This isn't that cool.151001:23:40.680 --> 01:23:43.079
This might not be this might be not great, this151101:23:43.199 --> 01:23:43.680
might not.151201:23:43.600 --> 01:23:45.479
Even be worth reporting on it all.151301:23:45.920 --> 01:23:50.279
Yeah, as I'm writing this up. Yeah, as the Ocean151401:23:50.359 --> 01:23:53.880
Census points out in its announcement, the time between collecting151501:23:53.880 --> 01:23:56.880
a species and formally describing it as new takes about151601:23:57.159 --> 01:24:00.920
thirteen years on average.151701:24:01.960 --> 01:24:03.239
It's not new anymore.151801:24:03.880 --> 01:24:06.199
I feel like I feel like that's a really long time.151901:24:06.319 --> 01:24:08.439
I feel like you gotta speed that process up.152001:24:08.760 --> 01:24:09.359
Yeah.152101:24:09.840 --> 01:24:13.159
Geez, that means some ant Oh my gosh, they literally152201:24:13.199 --> 01:24:15.000
said what I was about to joke. That means some152301:24:15.119 --> 01:24:19.760
animals could go extinct before they're even described in scientific literature.152401:24:20.199 --> 01:24:20.680
Wow.152501:24:21.720 --> 01:24:24.720
Quote, But that thirteen years is there for a reason,152601:24:24.840 --> 01:24:29.159
said Rause, who isn't involved in the Ocean Census project.152701:24:30.119 --> 01:24:33.520
Formally describing and naming a species not only confirms that152801:24:33.560 --> 01:24:36.680
it's new, but also makes the species easier to study152901:24:36.960 --> 01:24:41.920
and conserve, such as through laws that protect named endangered species.153001:24:43.520 --> 01:24:45.319
I mean a lot of these aren't in much danger153101:24:45.319 --> 01:24:47.039
that far underwater. I don't feel like people are going153201:24:47.079 --> 01:24:50.039
to be going after them. I mean, although I mean153301:24:50.119 --> 01:24:51.760
Michelle Mike, she wants to pet them all.153401:24:52.479 --> 01:24:54.600
They're not gonna let me pet them, but you.153501:24:54.640 --> 01:25:00.319
That doesn't mean you can't try, I guess. And she's153601:25:00.319 --> 01:25:03.199
getting really bummed out now, is it because they'll never153701:25:03.279 --> 01:25:03.960
let you pet them?153801:25:04.560 --> 01:25:07.560
I mean that? And they're not new species? Probably, And153901:25:07.600 --> 01:25:10.319
it's going to take thirteen years every time you find154001:25:10.319 --> 01:25:10.760
a new.154101:25:11.479 --> 01:25:14.039
To find out that your excitement was pointless and you're154201:25:14.119 --> 01:25:20.840
just the uneducated swine exactly. Yeah, checks out quote. The154301:25:20.880 --> 01:25:24.239
formal description process carries out the actual work to confirm154401:25:24.439 --> 01:25:28.800
novelty and provides the passport for that new species, said154501:25:28.800 --> 01:25:32.520
Tommy Horton, a research scientist the UK's National Oceanography Center.154601:25:32.920 --> 01:25:36.279
Without this, the formally recognized name the species effectively does154701:25:36.319 --> 01:25:41.800
not exist for science and therefore also for policy. Karen Osborne,154801:25:41.800 --> 01:25:45.279
a taxonomist at the Smithsonian National Museum of Natural History,154901:25:45.520 --> 01:25:50.079
similarly expressed skepticism about the announcement. Discovery alone is not enough,155001:25:50.079 --> 01:25:53.840
said Osborne, who's not directly involved in the Ocean census. Quote,155101:25:54.119 --> 01:25:57.000
I don't feel like saying, oh, look, we discovered something new.155201:25:57.039 --> 01:26:00.560
Should be given the status of something being described until155301:26:00.560 --> 01:26:03.800
you've actually done the work to show that it's something unique,155401:26:03.960 --> 01:26:06.760
Osborne said. But she said it's a step in the155501:26:06.840 --> 01:26:09.279
right direction. Chel's been making all kinds of like you're155601:26:09.680 --> 01:26:13.239
given like a kind of snooty like, oh yeah.155701:26:13.279 --> 01:26:15.520
It's just like it's like, oh, I don't think this155801:26:15.560 --> 01:26:18.760
is important. Thanks guys, thanks for telling me about all155901:26:18.800 --> 01:26:21.159
this stuff that's not important. I really appreciate it.156001:26:25.119 --> 01:26:28.920
I I mean, yeah, if there's one thing that the156101:26:28.960 --> 01:26:34.000
Ocean Census' findings are helping reveal with absolute certainty, it's156201:26:34.039 --> 01:26:37.640
that so much of the planet's biodiversity remains a mystery156301:26:38.159 --> 01:26:40.399
that is exciting and hopeful.156401:26:40.840 --> 01:26:42.960
I mean maybe unless we've already discovered it.156501:26:43.000 --> 01:26:45.600
Unless they're all yeah, we just we just like dig156601:26:45.640 --> 01:26:48.000
into the actual eleven hundred and there's just like a156701:26:48.319 --> 01:26:51.720
like a dog, and like a squirrel and then like156801:26:51.760 --> 01:26:53.960
a goldfish, and we're like, what is this? What all156901:26:54.000 --> 01:26:54.520
of this is?157001:26:55.079 --> 01:26:58.000
Yeah, they're like, oh no, sorry, we actually already disproved157101:26:58.000 --> 01:26:59.439
that album was found before. Yeah.157201:26:59.560 --> 01:27:01.880
Sorry, yeah, sorry, sorry, but the ghost sharks in there.157301:27:02.479 --> 01:27:06.399
You're like, oh, man, quote, I would love for people157401:27:06.439 --> 01:27:08.800
to know how much we don't know about how much157501:27:08.840 --> 01:27:12.079
is out there, Osborne said, we've barely scratched the surface157601:27:12.079 --> 01:27:16.840
on understanding our world. Well, considering you know, it's thirteen157701:27:16.920 --> 01:27:20.479
years each. I mean you're talking about like millennia to157801:27:20.600 --> 01:27:23.079
confirm all of these species. So maybe that's why it's157901:27:23.119 --> 01:27:23.760
taken so long.158001:27:24.039 --> 01:27:26.720
It seems like we don't even understand not our world,158101:27:26.800 --> 01:27:29.560
but what we understand. We don't even know what we know.158201:27:30.319 --> 01:27:32.720
You'd think they could catalog it to make this easier.158301:27:33.000 --> 01:27:35.319
Yeah, So that's what my job is now. I have158401:27:35.359 --> 01:27:37.319
to catalog all of the species.158501:27:38.199 --> 01:27:40.600
Okay, Shell, is that your way of saying you got158601:27:40.680 --> 01:27:41.760
to leave the show right now?158701:27:41.960 --> 01:27:44.560
That is my way of saying, to get with bye forever.158801:27:46.800 --> 01:27:51.119
Buy for a minimum of thirteen years well, we're going158901:27:51.199 --> 01:27:53.520
to take a break and when we come back, if159001:27:53.600 --> 01:27:58.159
Shell hasn't actually run off to investigate animal species, we're159101:27:58.159 --> 01:28:02.439
going to finally talk about the cocktri cockroach thing. Yeah.159201:28:02.520 --> 01:28:05.399
I made everybody wait, but hopefully it's worth the wait.159301:28:05.880 --> 01:28:17.119
I don't guarantee anything right after this. All right, Shell,159401:28:17.239 --> 01:28:23.079
we're back with the Huffington Post. The headline is cockroach159501:28:23.239 --> 01:28:28.680
kingpin caught with one hundred thousand illegal insects in record159601:28:28.800 --> 01:28:30.680
bug bust. Oh.159701:28:30.760 --> 01:28:31.960
I think I understand.159801:28:33.159 --> 01:28:36.319
I hope so. I mean that was all English, but159901:28:36.359 --> 01:28:38.119
wouldn't you know what We're back in Australia.160001:28:38.600 --> 01:28:40.800
Oh, I don't really understand as much anymore.160101:28:42.479 --> 01:28:44.760
Well, I mean, it's not poison mushrooms, but it'll have160201:28:44.840 --> 01:28:50.079
to do in Wellington, New Oh, it's sorry, Wellington News. Wait. Oh,160301:28:50.119 --> 01:28:52.920
the AP's coming from New Zealand. It is in Australia.160401:28:53.920 --> 01:28:58.279
More than one hundred thousand live cockroaches. More than one160501:28:58.359 --> 01:29:02.239
hundred thousand live cockroake cockroaches illegal to keep in Australia160601:29:02.359 --> 01:29:05.800
were confiscated from a single breeder in the country's largest160701:29:05.840 --> 01:29:11.920
ever seizure of exotic invertebrates, officials said on Friday, Apparently160801:29:12.000 --> 01:29:14.079
there is quite a black market for cockroaches.160901:29:14.880 --> 01:29:17.680
I assume they're like the big ones, like the hissing cockroaches,161001:29:17.960 --> 01:29:19.800
not like cockroaches, which.161101:29:19.800 --> 01:29:24.239
Means the literal. Next line, the hall of Madagascar hissing161201:29:24.279 --> 01:29:30.680
cockroaches and Dubia cockroaches worth two hundred thousand Australian dollars. Okay,161301:29:30.680 --> 01:29:32.760
so there's money to be made in this.161401:29:33.640 --> 01:29:35.159
Yeah.161501:29:35.640 --> 01:29:38.359
Was seized in May from a commercial breeder in the161601:29:38.359 --> 01:29:41.800
city of Bathurst and New South Wales State, according to161701:29:41.840 --> 01:29:45.439
Australia's Department of Climate Change, Energy, Environment and Water.161801:29:46.560 --> 01:29:48.359
Okay, so.161901:29:49.960 --> 01:29:52.600
Wait, so I mean if they have a cash value,162001:29:52.920 --> 01:29:55.199
does that mean you can buy them?162101:29:56.399 --> 01:29:58.960
Well, maybe the cash value is on the black market,162201:30:00.039 --> 01:30:00.600
but that's.162301:30:00.399 --> 01:30:03.279
Like can you even claim that then? Like, I mean,162401:30:03.319 --> 01:30:03.880
I guess you can.162501:30:03.960 --> 01:30:05.760
They do that with drugs, but yeah, they do with162601:30:05.800 --> 01:30:06.640
drugs all the time.162701:30:07.159 --> 01:30:10.800
Yeah, I guess you're right. The Madagascar hissing species is162801:30:10.800 --> 01:30:14.560
one of the biggest cockroaches, measuring two to three inches162901:30:15.760 --> 01:30:18.520
in length. It's pretty big for cockroach.163001:30:18.800 --> 01:30:19.640
I guess.163101:30:20.239 --> 01:30:22.359
I mean, well, you lived in Philly, so I guess163201:30:22.439 --> 01:30:24.239
the cockroaches were like impressive.163301:30:25.119 --> 01:30:27.439
I thought so, and I lived in Florida's and I163401:30:27.479 --> 01:30:29.640
know what the cockroaches look like there too. You.163501:30:32.960 --> 01:30:36.359
Photos released by the department showed a shiny brown invertebrate163601:30:36.479 --> 01:30:39.840
larger than a person's finger. It's much bigger than the163701:30:39.840 --> 01:30:43.199
country's common Australian cockroach, which measures between point nine and163801:30:43.239 --> 01:30:46.880
one point four inches. Oh they're small, yeah, which is163901:30:46.920 --> 01:30:50.199
surprising because Australia is always like the most terrifying of everything,164001:30:50.760 --> 01:30:56.239
like everything wants to kill you in Australia. I mean,164101:30:56.479 --> 01:30:57.600
I mean, I'm not making that up.164201:30:58.159 --> 01:31:01.000
I mean to be to be fair. I find small164301:31:01.039 --> 01:31:05.960
cockroaches much scarier than large cockroaches, so it's still kind164401:31:05.960 --> 01:31:06.880
of scary to me.164501:31:07.720 --> 01:31:09.720
You know, the movie creep Show, they had a whole164601:31:10.000 --> 01:31:13.720
thing with cockroaches, like this crazy cockroach segment in the164701:31:13.720 --> 01:31:16.159
movie Creep Show, and they filmed it at a I164801:31:16.159 --> 01:31:19.000
think it was a university is where they built the sets,164901:31:19.479 --> 01:31:22.359
and they absolutely couldn't keep the cockroaches they had bred165001:31:22.479 --> 01:31:27.119
under control, and supposedly, to this day, like they find165101:31:27.520 --> 01:31:30.359
cock like that specific breed of cockroach that wasn't like165201:31:30.479 --> 01:31:32.840
normal to that area, they still find them in the school.165301:31:33.000 --> 01:31:36.720
God, that's terrible. I mean, unless they're the Madagascar hissing165401:31:36.760 --> 01:31:38.039
cockroaches and it's fine.165501:31:38.159 --> 01:31:40.159
I don't know if they were those. They were definitely165601:31:40.199 --> 01:31:43.319
like an unusual, more cinematic looking cockroaches.165701:31:43.359 --> 01:31:44.920
Okay, that's fine, I don't care.165801:31:45.520 --> 01:31:49.319
Cockroaches flourish in Australia due to its subtropical climates, and165901:31:49.359 --> 01:31:51.960
the country is home to hundreds of species.166001:31:52.359 --> 01:31:52.680
Wow.166101:31:53.359 --> 01:31:57.239
Bathurst snake catcher Stephanie Lesser told the Australian Broadcasting Core166201:31:57.680 --> 01:32:00.960
that the larger exotic species were like being sold as166301:32:01.000 --> 01:32:05.199
a cost effective reptile food because their large sizement, fewer166401:32:05.239 --> 01:32:08.520
insects were needed. Officials urged pet owners to seek out166501:32:08.520 --> 01:32:12.720
crickets or woodroaches to feed their lizards instead. They haven't.166601:32:12.800 --> 01:32:16.800
I guess they haven't mentioned that they're dangerous to here,166701:32:16.920 --> 01:32:18.439
but they're going to because I was gonna say, like,166801:32:19.359 --> 01:32:21.119
I mean, why wouldn't you want bigger cockroaches?166901:32:21.399 --> 01:32:23.640
Yeah, I guess they're an invasive species.167001:32:24.720 --> 01:32:31.079
Or potentially invasive. Both Madagascar hissing and Dubia cockroaches are167101:32:31.119 --> 01:32:34.399
illegal to import into Australia. They can't be kept legally,167201:32:34.880 --> 01:32:37.479
bread or sold, no matter how they were obtained, The167301:32:37.479 --> 01:32:41.720
Department said in a statement. Australia has strict biosecurity controls167401:32:41.720 --> 01:32:45.319
at its borders to protect its agriculture and horticulture sectors167501:32:45.520 --> 01:32:49.720
and native wildlife from pest infestations. Those smuggling in undeclared167601:32:49.800 --> 01:32:53.000
or illegal animal, insect or plant material can be fined167701:32:53.199 --> 01:32:54.399
thousands of dollars.167801:32:55.680 --> 01:32:56.600
Yeah.167901:32:56.680 --> 01:32:58.520
Do you think they saw that episode of The Simpsons?168001:32:58.560 --> 01:33:01.399
Where was it the rabbit or what was it or168101:33:01.439 --> 01:33:04.199
the frog that Bart like brought some animal there and168201:33:04.239 --> 01:33:07.159
it just it took over the entire continent, like in168301:33:07.199 --> 01:33:07.560
a week.168401:33:08.680 --> 01:33:09.239
I don't know.168501:33:10.359 --> 01:33:12.680
Okay, fine, you need to know the Simpsons. You're you're168601:33:12.680 --> 01:33:16.159
a millennial. No you need to know. No, No, I'm168701:33:16.159 --> 01:33:17.279
trying to help you.168801:33:17.319 --> 01:33:19.079
No, No, it's over. I'm done.168901:33:20.199 --> 01:33:22.399
Okay, just go back to talking about in you Yasha169001:33:22.520 --> 01:33:25.359
or whatever you were into when you were a kid.169101:33:24.800 --> 01:33:28.319
I was, Oh, I make you mad?169201:33:28.680 --> 01:33:32.640
No, but I like didn't watch any Yasha id.169301:33:33.960 --> 01:33:36.479
Oh God, that's worse. You read it. That's way worse.169401:33:37.079 --> 01:33:38.039
That's so much worse.169501:33:38.680 --> 01:33:39.199
Sorry.169601:33:40.000 --> 01:33:44.199
Exotic cockroaches quote have not been subject to an environmental169701:33:44.279 --> 01:33:48.239
risk assessment and they could spread disease or harm native wildlife.169801:33:48.279 --> 01:33:52.800
The statement said officials warned of prosecutions against those caught169901:33:52.840 --> 01:33:59.359
with invertebrates. So that's weird that they haven't, Like they170001:33:59.359 --> 01:34:02.399
don't even know that they would be bad for the environment.170101:34:02.439 --> 01:34:03.560
They just don't want them.170201:34:03.840 --> 01:34:06.119
Yeah, I mean I get that, But like, also, what170301:34:06.159 --> 01:34:10.279
I'm failing to understand is, why wouldn't this person who's170401:34:10.319 --> 01:34:12.840
like breeding all these cockroaches, why not just breed the170501:34:12.840 --> 01:34:14.920
woodroaches that they said that you could.170601:34:14.680 --> 01:34:19.760
Feed the Probably because it's inefficient. Some people just want170701:34:19.800 --> 01:34:22.079
to do the better way and the government and it170801:34:22.119 --> 01:34:22.880
gets in their way.170901:34:23.640 --> 01:34:26.039
I guess I get it. But the cockroaches are pretty171001:34:26.079 --> 01:34:28.399
I think, pretty prolific, so would I would think it171101:34:28.399 --> 01:34:32.800
would work out for them? Man?171201:34:32.960 --> 01:34:37.279
Maybe? Oh well, this is the part that makes this171301:34:37.399 --> 01:34:42.199
article really weird. The last line. A spokesperson said charges171401:34:42.239 --> 01:34:45.000
were not laid against the Bathurst breeder, So the guy171501:34:45.079 --> 01:34:50.359
wasn't charged, okay for having like one hundred thousand illegal cockroaches. Wow,171601:34:51.800 --> 01:34:59.000
the cockroaches were seized and would be euthanized the department, Oh, one.171701:34:59.000 --> 01:35:05.319
Hundred thousand just gone yep, just because we don't know171801:35:05.359 --> 01:35:06.920
if it would be okay to bring it in the171901:35:06.960 --> 01:35:08.600
country or not. Why don't they just send them back172001:35:08.640 --> 01:35:09.560
to Madagascar.172101:35:11.000 --> 01:35:12.840
I feel like that's well, I don't know how many.172201:35:12.880 --> 01:35:16.600
I don't know how much one hundred thousand cockroaches Madagascar cockroaches.172301:35:16.600 --> 01:35:17.840
How much space that takes up?172401:35:18.039 --> 01:35:19.159
I don't think very much.172501:35:19.319 --> 01:35:22.119
Probably not much. Yeah, I mean you could just look172601:35:22.159 --> 01:35:24.199
into it. But I guess they're trying to protect big172701:35:24.239 --> 01:35:27.960
cockroach in Australia. Yeah, you know, they're like, why not172801:35:28.039 --> 01:35:31.720
breed our Australian cockroaches. It's like, well, because these get bigger,172901:35:31.760 --> 01:35:33.720
so they're better for lizards to eat.173001:35:34.199 --> 01:35:37.880
Uh huh No, no, no, just puts all the other173101:35:37.960 --> 01:35:40.039
cockroach companies out of business if you do that.173201:35:40.399 --> 01:35:43.960
Yeah, our local cockroaches, our mom and pop cockroach shops.173301:35:44.720 --> 01:35:45.680
You can't be doing that.173401:35:46.079 --> 01:35:47.920
Yeah.173501:35:48.000 --> 01:35:50.720
Well, we're gonna take a quick break and then we're173601:35:50.720 --> 01:35:56.479
gonna dive into a haunted house for sale, because Michelle173701:35:56.479 --> 01:36:08.000
loves her some houses. Right after this? All right, sochell.173801:36:08.680 --> 01:36:12.319
This article is actually from real litter dot com. Oh wow,173901:36:13.039 --> 01:36:17.119
and the headline is Haunted Civil War era Octagon mansion174001:36:17.239 --> 01:36:21.000
hits the market in Virginia for less than three hundred174101:36:21.119 --> 01:36:25.560
thousand dollars after being left vacant for the first time174201:36:25.720 --> 01:36:26.399
in years.174301:36:28.000 --> 01:36:31.199
I hoped it was less three hundred.174401:36:31.119 --> 01:36:33.560
In this market. That's low, though.174501:36:34.000 --> 01:36:36.159
I mean, depending on where it is in Virginia.174601:36:36.479 --> 01:36:41.600
Yeah, I mean, I can't imagine that there's many places174701:36:41.600 --> 01:36:43.600
in Virginia where a place I mean, I guess, what's174801:36:43.640 --> 01:36:45.800
the square footage? Is what I need to know. Yeah,174901:36:45.880 --> 01:36:49.600
you know, like maybe it's maybe it's not very big.175001:36:49.680 --> 01:36:52.560
Oh no, it's nine eight hundred and two square feet.175101:36:52.680 --> 01:36:54.119
Okay, that's a really good price.175201:36:54.199 --> 01:36:57.319
Oh nope, this is Nope, that's a different thing. God,175301:36:57.920 --> 01:37:00.880
it's always trying to get us to read new stuff. Yeah,175401:37:00.960 --> 01:37:03.840
they're showing other listings at the bottom. Who would have175501:37:03.840 --> 01:37:05.760
thought real ortor dot COM's goal would be to sell175601:37:05.800 --> 01:37:08.960
you a house. Yeah, but it's a cute looking house,175701:37:09.000 --> 01:37:09.359
isn't it?175801:37:10.039 --> 01:37:11.760
Uh huh.175901:37:11.960 --> 01:37:15.960
Located in Withville, Virginia, the historic abode, which is known176001:37:16.000 --> 01:37:19.039
as the Octagon Mansion, was built in eighteen seventy and176101:37:19.079 --> 01:37:22.800
has been the subject of multiple paranormal investigations in more176201:37:22.800 --> 01:37:26.920
recent years, many of which were documented on its Facebook page.176301:37:27.960 --> 01:37:29.520
That's nice, I guess.176401:37:29.720 --> 01:37:33.920
I mean it's a way to keep people interested. I suppose. Okay,176501:37:34.119 --> 01:37:37.800
it's six bedrooms, two and a half baths, five thousand176601:37:37.840 --> 01:37:38.439
square feet.176701:37:38.760 --> 01:37:41.760
Okay, that's a very reasonable price for five thousand square feet.176801:37:42.000 --> 01:37:44.720
Yeah. I was say, my house is is like, you know,176901:37:44.840 --> 01:37:49.199
about a thousand square feet, and now they're saying it's177001:37:49.199 --> 01:37:51.199
almost worth two hundred thousand dollars, which is insane to me.177101:37:51.840 --> 01:37:53.359
Yeah, so.177201:37:55.199 --> 01:37:57.479
I feel like two ninety five, and you're seeing these pictures,177301:37:57.520 --> 01:38:02.039
like the interior looks pretty nice. There's pink wall, which177401:38:02.079 --> 01:38:02.520
is hard.177501:38:03.000 --> 01:38:05.039
It's hard to tell because a lot of times, even177601:38:05.039 --> 01:38:07.640
if you see nice interior pictures, they're just like not177701:38:07.760 --> 01:38:09.399
showing you like the big hole in the ceiling.177801:38:10.840 --> 01:38:13.560
Yeah, oh drop ceilings in there in the hallways a177901:38:13.560 --> 01:38:15.359
little well, but I get it though, because it's like178001:38:15.399 --> 01:38:18.920
a very business like what do you call it, Like178101:38:18.960 --> 01:38:22.960
a very business like gazebo or landing or whatever you178201:38:22.960 --> 01:38:25.920
call it. I guess like it looked more like you178301:38:25.960 --> 01:38:29.720
were going into a place to buy something to me. However,178401:38:30.640 --> 01:38:33.680
from twenty nineteen it was also home to the Octagon178501:38:33.760 --> 01:38:38.720
Mansion History Museum, a project started by curator John Cushman178601:38:39.079 --> 01:38:41.640
after he purchased the dwelling that same year, after it178701:38:41.680 --> 01:38:46.680
had sat vacant for close to a decade. However, in178801:38:46.720 --> 01:38:50.119
March of twenty twenty five, the museum, which operated regular178901:38:50.239 --> 01:38:54.560
Dinner with a Ghost events, was shuttered for good. No,179001:38:56.279 --> 01:38:59.079
the dwelling is now seeking a new steward with enough179101:38:59.119 --> 01:39:01.640
gumption to take on a property with such an eerie179201:39:02.279 --> 01:39:08.159
yet rich history. And that's you, Michelle Ray.179301:39:08.239 --> 01:39:11.199
I mean I've lived there. Yeah, I don't care.179401:39:12.359 --> 01:39:16.359
I don't care. Octagon homes rose to popularity during the179501:39:16.399 --> 01:39:22.119
eighteen fifties and eighteen sixties, when designers began creating the179601:39:22.159 --> 01:39:24.600
eight sided abodes out of the belief that they would179701:39:24.640 --> 01:39:29.039
offer additional space for less money. I don't know that179801:39:29.039 --> 01:39:33.159
that's how octagons actually work, but I mean, I could179901:39:33.199 --> 01:39:40.960
be wrong, but I don't think I am. I really don't. However,180001:39:41.239 --> 01:39:46.720
the oh Wait in eighteen forty eight book The Octagon House,180101:39:46.720 --> 01:39:49.479
A Home for All by Orson Fowler, was even dedicated180201:39:49.479 --> 01:39:52.640
to espousing the benefits of living in a dwelling that180301:39:52.720 --> 01:39:56.319
had twice as many sides as traditional homes. I love180401:39:56.359 --> 01:39:59.039
that that's their thing. They're like, we can have more sides.180501:39:59.399 --> 01:40:01.680
Yeah, that'll make everything easier.180601:40:02.000 --> 01:40:05.000
Oh, does your house have four walls? What are you180701:40:05.239 --> 01:40:09.960
a grandpa? This ain't your Granddaddy's house. This has doubled180801:40:09.960 --> 01:40:14.479
the walls for double the badass. I don't know how180901:40:14.479 --> 01:40:21.479
they market it is twice as many sides. However, the181001:40:21.520 --> 01:40:23.960
fad was short lived, and within a few decades the181101:40:24.000 --> 01:40:26.439
Octagon House had fallen out of favor, and many of181201:40:26.479 --> 01:40:29.640
these properties built during the height of their popularity were181301:40:29.720 --> 01:40:34.319
later demolished. Oh no, see now, Chell's like I have.181401:40:34.239 --> 01:40:36.720
To help them exactly geez.181501:40:37.800 --> 01:40:40.680
Today, just a few remain across the country, many of181601:40:40.720 --> 01:40:44.359
which can be found on the East Coast. Hey, the181701:40:44.399 --> 01:40:48.399
Octagon Mansion serves as one of the more carefully preserved examples.181801:40:48.800 --> 01:40:52.319
In addition to its impressive heritage, the six bedroom property,181901:40:52.319 --> 01:40:54.239
which has crept its way to the top of the182001:40:54.279 --> 01:40:58.479
Week's Most Popular Homes list, has undergone a substantial remodel182101:40:58.479 --> 01:41:01.359
in the recent years that saw it's five thousand square182201:41:01.359 --> 01:41:05.920
foot interior outfitted with a commercial kitchen, updated bathrooms, and182301:41:06.079 --> 01:41:11.880
upgraded electrical systems. Oh yay man, having upgraded, upgraded kitchen, bathrooms,182401:41:11.880 --> 01:41:14.920
and electrical systems. And it's only three hundred it's under182501:41:14.960 --> 01:41:18.000
three hundred grand. Yeah, yeah, that's pretty nice.182601:41:18.199 --> 01:41:18.680
Yeah it is.182701:41:19.680 --> 01:41:24.159
And still many original details remain, including the original hardwood floors,182801:41:24.439 --> 01:41:28.520
custom built ins, and intricate millwork. The property is located182901:41:28.560 --> 01:41:30.960
in a B two zoning, so it could be used183001:41:30.960 --> 01:41:34.279
to generate rental income as an event a venue, a183101:41:34.319 --> 01:41:37.920
bed and breakfast, or a mixed use space. Multiple entrances183201:41:38.039 --> 01:41:40.920
uniquely position the one of a kind property for a183301:41:41.039 --> 01:41:50.279
variety of uses. Yeah, and it's haunted. Maybe maybe I'm183401:41:50.319 --> 01:41:53.760
doubting it's haunted. But what do you think about the concept.183501:41:53.800 --> 01:41:56.199
I mean, you're a home inspector. I like to mention183601:41:56.279 --> 01:41:58.800
that in case people don't know, what do you think183701:41:58.840 --> 01:42:01.760
about octagon house instead of a square house?183801:42:02.399 --> 01:42:05.359
I mean, it's probably just really annoying, honestly. I mean,183901:42:05.399 --> 01:42:09.279
like the kind of it's got to be less annoying184001:42:09.359 --> 01:42:15.359
than like a circle, like a dome or something house because.184101:42:15.279 --> 01:42:16.359
Because there's no corners.184201:42:17.000 --> 01:42:20.039
Yeah, at least you have like walls and sides and things.184301:42:20.520 --> 01:42:24.319
But I can't imagine it would be more you know184401:42:24.319 --> 01:42:26.760
when a fishion of a design, you know, because I184501:42:26.800 --> 01:42:28.720
just feel like it would be really difficult to have184601:42:28.800 --> 01:42:32.159
the rooms make sense. You gotta fit a bed against184701:42:32.199 --> 01:42:33.560
a wall and stuff like that.184801:42:35.640 --> 01:42:38.079
I mean it is. I do think it's a little184901:42:38.279 --> 01:42:39.359
a little unusual.185001:42:39.840 --> 01:42:42.359
That being said, I would totally live in a house185101:42:42.359 --> 01:42:43.720
that was octagon shaped.185201:42:44.279 --> 01:42:50.079
Sounds fine, I believe that, Yeah, I don't. I don't185301:42:50.119 --> 01:42:53.239
see how it could actually be other than having more185401:42:54.199 --> 01:42:57.600
walls because of the corners, like having more corners, but185501:42:57.600 --> 01:42:59.399
you're not having any right angle corners.185601:43:00.079 --> 01:43:03.279
And I don't think corners are particularly useful usually.185701:43:05.119 --> 01:43:07.159
Wow, that's a little hateful.185801:43:07.399 --> 01:43:09.479
I mean they're a little useful, but most of the185901:43:09.479 --> 01:43:14.279
time the things are going on not in the corners, right, Okay, fine,186001:43:14.319 --> 01:43:16.399
maybe maybe corners are great.186101:43:16.680 --> 01:43:22.840
Corners are pretty dope, man. Whatever, Well, maybe you'll luck186201:43:22.880 --> 01:43:24.199
out and you'll get to inspect one.186301:43:24.840 --> 01:43:26.439
Maybe, I don't think.186401:43:26.479 --> 01:43:30.880
Maybe probably not. No, well, there, I wanted at least186501:43:30.880 --> 01:43:35.520
have a little real estate for you, you know. Of course. Well,186601:43:35.520 --> 01:43:37.680
when we get back, we're going to talk about our186701:43:37.760 --> 01:43:42.000
subject or topic of the month, which is a pied186801:43:42.239 --> 01:43:45.479
piper mystery, because I've always found the concept of the186901:43:45.479 --> 01:43:48.840
pied piper really interesting and there's a lot of dark,187001:43:48.920 --> 01:43:53.159
weird stuff involving it too, So we're gonna get educated187101:43:53.640 --> 01:44:04.479
on the pied piper mystery right after this. All right,187201:44:04.520 --> 01:44:07.800
we're back, and Cell has agreed. We were talking about187301:44:07.800 --> 01:44:11.079
this during the break, has agreed to recount us with187401:44:11.199 --> 01:44:15.199
her favorite telling of the Pied Piper. So, Michelle, no,187501:44:15.760 --> 01:44:16.359
you got it.187601:44:16.720 --> 01:44:19.920
I don't even know. There was like this person and187701:44:19.960 --> 01:44:25.920
then like he had like a thing pipe flute maybe yeah, sure,187801:44:26.520 --> 01:44:28.920
and then like you get all the kids and that's187901:44:28.920 --> 01:44:29.600
at the end.188001:44:32.760 --> 01:44:36.880
Wow. Uh you know. And I thought my bedtime stories188101:44:36.920 --> 01:44:39.319
were a bit efficient having a single mom, but wow,188201:44:39.439 --> 01:44:45.560
that was a go to bed door slam. Yeah. Well,188301:44:45.600 --> 01:44:48.520
the Pied Piper. I mean, like we've all heard versions188401:44:48.560 --> 01:44:52.399
of it on in movies, TV shows or from family members.188501:44:52.640 --> 01:44:56.159
But basically the idea, this piper comes along and he188601:44:56.199 --> 01:45:00.199
can play a pipe or a flute or whatever, and188701:45:00.319 --> 01:45:03.680
he can make like I think it was rodents. It188801:45:03.720 --> 01:45:06.319
was like pests. He can make pests all follow him188901:45:06.319 --> 01:45:11.880
into the woods, and that was like the thing he189001:45:11.880 --> 01:45:14.479
could do. And people were so happy about him getting189101:45:14.520 --> 01:45:17.760
rid of the pests. But then I guess they refuse189201:45:17.840 --> 01:45:20.279
to pay him, hence the phrase you have to pay189301:45:20.319 --> 01:45:24.720
the piper mm hm. And because they didn't pay him,189401:45:24.840 --> 01:45:27.640
he did the same thing but took the children into189501:45:27.680 --> 01:45:30.560
the woods instead, which is pretty dark.189601:45:31.479 --> 01:45:35.600
Yeah, yeah, that's what you get. Yeah, I gotta pay189701:45:35.640 --> 01:45:38.960
people when they you enter a business contract with.189801:45:38.880 --> 01:45:42.319
Them, even a verbal one that counts.189901:45:42.600 --> 01:45:43.600
Yeah, it does count.190001:45:43.920 --> 01:45:49.439
Yeah. Well this is from folklore Thursday dot com, written190101:45:49.439 --> 01:45:52.960
by a guy named al Ridenoir who has a podcast190201:45:53.000 --> 01:45:55.840
called Bone and Sickle, which I actually really like. It's190301:45:55.840 --> 01:45:59.600
a folklore podcast, huh. But he wrote this article and190401:45:59.640 --> 01:46:03.479
it's in titled a Pied Piper Mystery, and it kind190501:46:03.479 --> 01:46:09.880
of digs into the history and the concepts of the190601:46:09.920 --> 01:46:13.279
pied piper. And I've always liked this story. I don't190701:46:13.279 --> 01:46:15.079
know why. I think it's the simplicity, the idea that190801:46:15.119 --> 01:46:17.720
he could play the pipes and make like snakes or190901:46:18.239 --> 01:46:19.840
rats leave, and then he can play the pipes and191001:46:19.840 --> 01:46:23.439
just take all the children. That's really scary. And supposedly191101:46:23.479 --> 01:46:26.720
based on a true story of some sort of some191201:46:26.800 --> 01:46:29.960
sort of some sort. Well that's folklore, though it's based191301:46:29.960 --> 01:46:32.279
on a story of some sort. Like the old lady191401:46:32.279 --> 01:46:33.479
who lived in a shoe. Well, there was an old191501:46:33.520 --> 01:46:34.960
lady and she lived in a house and if you191601:46:35.000 --> 01:46:36.640
squinted really hard, it might kind of look like shoe.191701:46:36.640 --> 01:46:38.279
I don't know that's the story, but that's where it191801:46:38.319 --> 01:46:41.600
came from, you know, folklore man.191901:46:41.960 --> 01:46:43.680
Eh.192001:46:43.800 --> 01:46:47.399
While the Pied Piper of Hamlin is undeniably a fairy tale,192101:46:47.760 --> 01:46:52.039
it's uniquely grounded in real world specifics. The date for one,192201:46:52.119 --> 01:46:53.720
and this is one of the reasons I chose this192301:46:54.399 --> 01:46:57.720
the date of June twenty six, which is the Friday192401:46:57.720 --> 01:47:02.760
before this airs. So June. That's the date in twelve192501:47:02.880 --> 01:47:06.359
eighty four when the town lost a significant portion of192601:47:06.399 --> 01:47:09.520
its population, a matter treated as fact in the first192701:47:09.600 --> 01:47:13.159
written allusion to the incidents, The initial thirteen eighty four192801:47:13.319 --> 01:47:16.960
entry in Hamlin's town chronicle says, quote, it is one192901:47:17.000 --> 01:47:24.720
hundred years since our children left. Hmmm, what are you thinking?193001:47:25.319 --> 01:47:28.239
Thinking that I accidentally killed the little matt that was193101:47:28.239 --> 01:47:29.319
flying around my face?193201:47:29.840 --> 01:47:30.680
How'd you do that?193301:47:31.199 --> 01:47:33.800
I just wanted him to go away, so I squeezed193401:47:33.840 --> 01:47:37.199
him and then he's drrible. Yeah.193501:47:37.319 --> 01:47:39.039
I didn't know you were that kind of person.193601:47:39.279 --> 01:47:41.159
I'm sorry.193701:47:42.319 --> 01:47:45.680
Well, geez, hopefully you never learn how to play a pipe.193801:47:46.079 --> 01:47:46.960
Yeah.193901:47:47.039 --> 01:47:50.199
Presumably the incident was so well known that it required194001:47:50.279 --> 01:47:53.720
no further explanation. It would have been familiar for what194101:47:54.560 --> 01:47:56.960
oh I said, Wow, how dare you?194201:47:57.920 --> 01:47:59.119
Yeah?194301:47:59.199 --> 01:48:02.119
It would have been famil from oral tradition and had194401:48:02.159 --> 01:48:05.840
already been represented in a window installed in Hamlin's Market194501:48:05.920 --> 01:48:09.920
Church in thirteen hundred, though the window was destroyed in194601:48:09.960 --> 01:48:14.000
sixteen sixty. A painting from fifteen ninety two reproducing the194701:48:14.039 --> 01:48:17.640
window confirms some of the earliest elements of this story,194801:48:18.039 --> 01:48:21.319
showing a piper and children heading toward what appeared to194901:48:21.359 --> 01:48:26.000
be a cleft in a mountain. Oh, I do like195001:48:26.039 --> 01:48:30.720
how it's like when you're dealing with European history, there's195101:48:30.760 --> 01:48:32.600
a lot of those crazy jumps where it's like, anyway,195201:48:32.680 --> 01:48:36.000
let's jump to thirteen eighty four, Let's jump to twelve195301:48:36.079 --> 01:48:38.479
eighty four. You know, like, let's jump back. But then195401:48:38.800 --> 01:48:41.760
you know mentioning. A window was installed with a representation195501:48:41.840 --> 01:48:44.720
in thirteen hundred, but it got destroyed in sixteen sixty,195601:48:44.720 --> 01:48:47.600
but somebody painted it in fifteen ninety two. It's just195701:48:48.000 --> 01:48:49.800
I mean, that's a long period of time, like three195801:48:49.920 --> 01:48:53.439
hundred and sixty years that that window was up, So195901:48:53.439 --> 01:48:56.479
I guess somebody was like, that's cool, I'm gonna recreate it.196001:48:58.600 --> 01:49:00.920
We know a few more details were fixed to the196101:49:00.960 --> 01:49:04.000
story by the sixteenth century, as they are painted on196201:49:04.039 --> 01:49:06.800
a gable of a building of that era that came196301:49:06.840 --> 01:49:11.319
to be known as the Piper's house. I think it's196401:49:11.439 --> 01:49:16.000
very strange that there's all these cryptic references in this196501:49:16.079 --> 01:49:19.279
little town. Yea, that are like really old references.196601:49:19.399 --> 01:49:21.199
Yeah. Yeah.196701:49:21.239 --> 01:49:25.319
It gives the number of children as one hundred and thirty.196801:49:26.600 --> 01:49:27.960
That's a lot of children.196901:49:28.239 --> 01:49:31.439
I think that is a lot of kids. Yeah, the197001:49:31.479 --> 01:49:36.159
loss occurred through a piper. It says one dressed in197101:49:36.319 --> 01:49:43.560
pied or multi colored clothing. So I'm pied. Yeah, ah,197201:49:43.600 --> 01:49:47.239
I feel so cool. Now cool, I guess I always197301:49:47.279 --> 01:49:49.079
wonder what pied piper meant. Now I get it.197401:49:49.479 --> 01:49:50.800
Yeah, me too, I didn't know.197501:49:51.479 --> 01:49:53.000
Yeah, well, and it makes sense he's dressed in all197601:49:53.000 --> 01:49:57.920
these colorful clothes and entertained children. He led them off197701:49:58.000 --> 01:50:03.079
to quote cavalry near the hills. The allusion to Calvary,197801:50:03.359 --> 01:50:06.560
the site of Christ's crucifixion, has been taken as an197901:50:06.600 --> 01:50:14.920
allusion to a sort of fate or martyrdom. That's really creepy. Actually, Yeah,198001:50:15.319 --> 01:50:18.079
so it says the piper took one hundred and thirty198101:50:18.199 --> 01:50:22.399
kids to Calvary near the hills, and Calvary was the198201:50:22.439 --> 01:50:28.680
site of the crucifixion. Yeah, that's that's actually really like198301:50:28.720 --> 01:50:33.159
I'm actually like disturbed. Yeah, because that's so cryptic.198401:50:33.279 --> 01:50:36.760
But yeah, yeah, yeah, but also.198501:50:36.560 --> 01:50:38.800
Like I get it now, and I get that they198601:50:38.840 --> 01:50:39.520
would get it then.198701:50:40.640 --> 01:50:41.960
Yeah.198801:50:42.000 --> 01:50:45.680
Some time after this inscription was created, the final element198901:50:45.720 --> 01:50:49.640
of the story appears, the plague of rats.199001:50:50.560 --> 01:50:54.039
Oh okay, I understand maybe, well, I.199101:50:54.039 --> 01:50:56.760
Mean, because Pied Piper was you know, got all the199201:50:56.840 --> 01:51:00.720
rats to leave town. In the story, at least a199301:51:00.800 --> 01:51:04.680
nutshell refresher on the story as it was finally consolidated.199401:51:05.039 --> 01:51:08.880
Hamlin is overrun with rats. A mysterious piper shows up,199501:51:09.000 --> 01:51:13.199
offering a fix for the right price. The mayor agrees.199601:51:13.520 --> 01:51:16.119
The stranger plays his pipe to draw up the rats199701:51:16.159 --> 01:51:19.159
and steer them into the Wesser River to drown. The199801:51:19.199 --> 01:51:23.079
mayor renegs on payment, and the stranger leaves, only to199901:51:23.159 --> 01:51:26.439
return on June twenty sixth to lead the town's youth200001:51:26.479 --> 01:51:33.600
away into a cave in a mountain. So they but200101:51:33.920 --> 01:51:35.840
I mean, I get it. He renegged because like the200201:51:35.920 --> 01:51:37.920
rats were already drowned. So what is he gonna do200301:51:38.199 --> 01:51:39.079
undrowned the rats?200401:51:39.119 --> 01:51:42.520
Yeah, exactly, he's a bad person.200501:51:43.319 --> 01:51:44.399
For drowning the rats.200601:51:44.640 --> 01:51:48.359
No for for renegging eyes, I agree, promise, Yeah, I mean,200701:51:48.600 --> 01:51:50.720
I mean I like rats, but at this period of time,200801:51:50.800 --> 01:51:56.520
they were pretty bad news. I wouldn't want the rats drowned,200901:51:56.560 --> 01:51:59.119
but I'm just gonna let that be in this case201001:51:59.159 --> 01:51:59.520
because I.201101:51:59.520 --> 01:52:03.199
Don't know fair enough, while we know the rats are201201:52:03.239 --> 01:52:06.800
merely an element of the storyteller's craft, because rats actually201301:52:06.840 --> 01:52:09.840
can swim quite well, that's a really good point. Although201401:52:09.840 --> 01:52:11.079
I guess he could have been like they could have201501:52:11.119 --> 01:52:13.840
been hypnotized to where they're just like walking into the201601:52:13.840 --> 01:52:15.239
water and just not doing anything.201701:52:16.199 --> 01:52:19.600
I guess that doesn't sound realistic.201801:52:20.920 --> 01:52:23.600
You're right, that's the one you poked, the one hole201901:52:23.720 --> 01:52:27.920
in this whole thing. The sober entry in the town202001:52:28.000 --> 01:52:31.960
chronicle and stained glass commemoration of the event only sixteen202101:52:32.039 --> 01:52:35.319
years after the fact, as well as the specificity of202201:52:35.359 --> 01:52:39.359
the gable inscription, all argue for a real world tragedy202301:52:39.800 --> 01:52:46.600
that calls for explanation. So what answers have been proposed, Well,202401:52:46.640 --> 01:52:49.520
we'll get to that right after this quick break. So202501:52:50.319 --> 01:52:53.119
make sure you pay your piper, and by that I202601:52:53.159 --> 01:52:56.119
mean support a sponsor or something. I don't I like202701:52:56.159 --> 01:53:07.279
you anyway, right after this, so let's look at what202801:53:07.399 --> 01:53:12.640
answers have been suggested on the Pied Piper mystery. In202901:53:12.680 --> 01:53:17.239
Hamelin Hamelin, I think it's how I say it. One203001:53:17.319 --> 01:53:19.920
theory has to do with the plague. That was kind203101:53:19.920 --> 01:53:22.760
of what I was thinking with the rats here, the203201:53:22.840 --> 01:53:26.600
piper is simply a symbolic representation of the grim Reaper203301:53:27.960 --> 01:53:31.359
in reference to the plague. Death was frequently represented as203401:53:31.359 --> 01:53:35.439
a musician in the dance macabre trope. Okay, I mean203501:53:35.439 --> 01:53:36.000
that's true.203601:53:36.319 --> 01:53:36.840
Yeah.203701:53:36.880 --> 01:53:41.119
Also, I mean if you meet magicians or magicians musicians,203801:53:42.039 --> 01:53:45.760
I could see them being Death. But the Black Death203901:53:45.880 --> 01:53:49.600
did not arrive in Europe until thirteen forty seven, which204001:53:49.680 --> 01:53:56.800
was fifty years after the incident. That surprises me. I204101:53:56.840 --> 01:53:58.640
really thought this was about the Black Plague.204201:53:58.960 --> 01:54:01.439
Yeah, yeah, thought it made sense.204301:54:02.800 --> 01:54:06.319
It's also been suggested that Hamlin's youth left to take204401:54:06.399 --> 01:54:09.960
part in the Children's Crusade, an effort to retake the204501:54:10.000 --> 01:54:15.960
Holy Lands not by warfare but by evangelizing presence of children. However,204601:54:16.079 --> 01:54:19.800
the Children's Crusade was supposed to have happened in twelve twelve,204701:54:20.359 --> 01:54:24.640
not twelve eighty four. How or whether the Crusade happened204801:54:24.640 --> 01:54:28.159
at all is also subject to debate. Yeah, we are204901:54:28.199 --> 01:54:33.079
getting real far back. Yeah, Like I like that. It's205001:54:33.119 --> 01:54:34.760
not just like it could have been this thing, but205101:54:34.800 --> 01:54:37.680
also we don't know if that thing even happened. Yeah, yeah,205201:54:37.720 --> 01:54:39.760
and if it did, it probably happened in this time.205301:54:39.800 --> 01:54:44.960
But again we don't even know. Yeah this, yeah, because205401:54:45.680 --> 01:54:47.720
it still blows back. I really thought this was about205501:54:47.760 --> 01:54:50.560
the Black Plague, because there's so many folk tales and205601:54:50.800 --> 01:54:54.279
fairy tales and nursery rhymes that are all related to205701:54:54.560 --> 01:54:57.880
the Black Plague, which obviously, I mean, it affected a205801:54:57.880 --> 01:55:02.840
lot of people, so people would make art about it, Yeah, exactly.205901:55:03.520 --> 01:55:05.199
I mean I would assume at least some of it206001:55:05.279 --> 01:55:09.399
might have been retroactively put on it, you know, later on,206101:55:09.720 --> 01:55:13.800
like when they were reinterpreting it. A more attractive theory206201:55:13.880 --> 01:55:17.319
relates to the relates the loss to the medieval dancing206301:55:17.359 --> 01:55:21.279
plague or dancing mania, a form of mass hysteria during206401:55:21.319 --> 01:55:24.920
which groups ranging from dozens to thousands were seized by206501:55:24.960 --> 01:55:29.920
an uncontrollable desire to dance or leap about wildly for days, weeks,206601:55:30.000 --> 01:55:33.239
or even months at a time, usually to the point206701:55:33.239 --> 01:55:38.039
of exhaustion and sometimes death. You seemed very knowing when206801:55:38.039 --> 01:55:40.039
you heard that. You heard of that before. Yeah, yeah,206901:55:40.880 --> 01:55:42.000
you've heard of dance mania.207001:55:42.760 --> 01:55:44.760
I've heard of that yeah that yeah.207101:55:44.680 --> 01:55:48.039
Yeah, really, what do you know about it?207201:55:52.560 --> 01:55:56.159
I don't know, just like that it hap that like happened,207301:55:56.199 --> 01:55:58.000
and that it was probably mass hysteria.207401:55:58.680 --> 01:56:05.079
Okay, see, I lived through whole comania, but I made it,207501:56:05.199 --> 01:56:05.399
you know.207601:56:05.880 --> 01:56:09.119
Yeah, I know that was rough though for you it207701:56:09.159 --> 01:56:11.600
wasn't easy.207801:56:11.640 --> 01:56:15.520
This theory at least fits into the appropriate chronological window207901:56:15.560 --> 01:56:18.680
as the dancing mania afflicted mainland Europe, beginning in the208001:56:18.720 --> 01:56:22.920
eleventh century and lasting in some places into the early seventeenth,208101:56:23.319 --> 01:56:26.640
and it keeps the piper as a literal musician leading208201:56:26.640 --> 01:56:31.159
a sort of dancing procession out of the city. Okay,208301:56:32.119 --> 01:56:35.560
I could see that. I guess you don't think that208401:56:35.560 --> 01:56:36.279
that holds water.208501:56:36.800 --> 01:56:40.399
No, I mean I guess I just did. Sure, Sure,208601:56:40.520 --> 01:56:43.479
I don't know. I feel like, but then what happened208701:56:43.520 --> 01:56:44.039
to these kids?208801:56:44.079 --> 01:56:47.880
They just they just danced, danced into the woods and208901:56:47.960 --> 01:56:51.600
never came back. Yeah, I mean that could be.209001:56:52.359 --> 01:56:53.279
I guess.209101:56:54.359 --> 01:56:57.840
I mean, you really seem to hate that theory.209201:56:59.079 --> 01:57:00.640
I don't know, I don't know.209301:57:00.880 --> 01:57:09.239
I don't know, I don't know. I think you do know. Fine,209401:57:11.479 --> 01:57:15.840
Those overtaken by dancing mania were often said to travel209501:57:15.880 --> 01:57:19.960
while dancing. The Hamlin's story seems not so different from209601:57:20.000 --> 01:57:22.479
what happened in twelve fifty seven in the German town209701:57:22.560 --> 01:57:26.520
of Erfert, a couple of hours to the south. There,209801:57:26.640 --> 01:57:32.439
it's reported that one thousand children left the town furiously dancing, leaping,209901:57:32.479 --> 01:57:38.520
and singing, traveling fifteen miles to the town of arnstackt Arnstadt.210001:57:38.760 --> 01:57:41.000
Most of them, however, did return.210101:57:41.720 --> 01:57:44.279
You would think, so, I don't.210201:57:44.039 --> 01:57:46.520
Know, I don't I mean, when I have dance Mania,210301:57:47.920 --> 01:57:50.079
it sounds like a video game that you like, like210401:57:50.479 --> 01:57:53.199
that was It sounds like a when your your town210501:57:53.319 --> 01:57:55.600
is too poor to have a dance Dance Revolution at210601:57:55.600 --> 01:57:59.640
the arcades, they have a dance Mania instead, and you're like, uh,210701:57:59.720 --> 01:58:02.600
it's it's just as good. And you're like, it isn't that.210801:58:02.680 --> 01:58:06.439
I'll play it anyway, yell. Were you a DDR person210901:58:06.439 --> 01:58:07.760
a dance Dance Revolution person?211001:58:08.039 --> 01:58:08.880
No?211101:58:08.880 --> 01:58:15.439
No, no, I was not mean neither. Adherence to this211201:58:15.560 --> 01:58:19.760
theory suggests that, since the mania proved contagious, Hamlin might211301:58:19.800 --> 01:58:22.159
have hired a piper to lead the dancers beyond the211401:58:22.199 --> 01:58:28.319
city walls to prevent city wide infection. Okay, sure, I'm211501:58:28.319 --> 01:58:30.640
not gonna lie. I'm so fascinated by dancing mania. I211601:58:30.680 --> 01:58:33.039
just wrote it down to study it for terrifying and true,211701:58:33.640 --> 01:58:36.800
I really want to know more about dancing madia. That's211801:58:36.840 --> 01:58:40.800
bizarre to me. Uh, and the idea's contagious and like, I, I,211901:58:41.119 --> 01:58:46.960
what is this? That's yeah, but that's why I mean.212001:58:46.960 --> 01:58:48.760
I want to know more about mass hysteria as well,212101:58:49.199 --> 01:58:52.600
just having trouble. Like, I understand that those are things,212201:58:52.600 --> 01:58:57.159
but I don't understand them. Okay, you know, yeah, perhaps212301:58:57.159 --> 01:59:01.000
it was conceived as some temporary measure, but some unexpected212401:59:01.119 --> 01:59:04.520
evil befell the children once they were removed. But the212501:59:04.600 --> 01:59:08.079
dancing mania itself is so little understood that it hardly212601:59:08.119 --> 01:59:11.920
feels like a rational answer to our question. One of212701:59:11.960 --> 01:59:16.640
the most widely accepted theories posits a mass emigration. This212801:59:16.720 --> 01:59:21.359
explanation understands the so called children of Hamelin metaphorically as212901:59:21.840 --> 01:59:25.640
those who belong to Hamlin. I think that makes a213001:59:25.640 --> 01:59:28.920
lot of sense. Yeah, I think so too, And that213101:59:29.079 --> 01:59:33.760
is a usage more common in Germany. It suggests that213201:59:33.800 --> 01:59:36.840
a generation of youths, young men, or young families left213301:59:36.960 --> 01:59:40.119
en Mass to seek their fortunes in more promising lands,213401:59:40.479 --> 01:59:44.720
namely Baltic regions to the northeast. The former Pomerania and213501:59:44.760 --> 01:59:51.760
East Prussia, Moravia or Morovia, sorry now Czech Republic or Transylvania, Romania.213601:59:52.159 --> 01:59:54.680
Oh so now I think we're getting to Dracula find.213701:59:54.760 --> 01:59:58.039
Yeah, yeah, the vampires, got it, got it.213801:59:58.920 --> 02:00:02.239
All of these areas were settled by German migrants during213902:00:02.279 --> 02:00:05.600
the period in question. The Grimm's version, which itself is214002:00:05.640 --> 02:00:10.239
supposed to have been synthesized from eleven earlier sources, explicitly214102:00:10.359 --> 02:00:14.159
mentions the last saying quote. Some say that the children214202:00:14.199 --> 02:00:16.800
were led into a cave and that they came out214302:00:16.840 --> 02:00:18.840
again in Transylvania.214402:00:20.840 --> 02:00:21.520
There you go.214502:00:22.119 --> 02:00:28.760
Okay, okay. In the emigration scenario, our piper would have214602:00:28.800 --> 02:00:33.640
been the figure historically known as a lacatur a latinate214702:00:33.800 --> 02:00:40.000
coinage meaning relocators. These individuals were employed by nobility to214802:00:40.039 --> 02:00:46.279
recruit military, agricultural, agriculture and trade workers needing to colonize214902:00:46.319 --> 02:00:53.800
underpopulated or hostile areas under their rule. Okay, so now215002:00:53.800 --> 02:00:55.399
we're getting into government.215102:00:56.039 --> 02:00:58.199
Yeah now, but it's like sounding like, oh okay, it215202:00:58.359 --> 02:01:02.000
just went on to it a different place. Yeay, everything's fine.215302:01:03.119 --> 02:01:09.640
Yeah. Maybe the locator would have arrived as a stranger,215402:01:09.840 --> 02:01:13.560
perhaps in a foreign uniform, or brightly dressed to attract attention,215502:01:14.119 --> 02:01:16.199
and may have announced his presence in the town with215602:01:16.359 --> 02:01:20.000
musical fanfare. The pipe playing of the folk tale could215702:01:20.000 --> 02:01:22.960
have thus been a sort of song and dance, likely215802:01:23.039 --> 02:01:26.840
to take in younger, gullible folk eager to enjoy the215902:01:26.920 --> 02:01:31.760
promised riches of these eastern lands. This last theory seems216002:01:31.760 --> 02:01:34.600
the most reasonable, but ascribing the piper's dress and music216102:01:34.680 --> 02:01:39.520
making to the locator, while interesting, maybe overburdening the theory216202:01:39.560 --> 02:01:44.520
a bit. Maybe. I mean, it doesn't sound like whatever216302:01:44.520 --> 02:01:46.880
it was. It sounds like if a locator came to216402:01:46.920 --> 02:01:50.800
their town, he was not a good dude like he216502:01:50.880 --> 02:01:53.239
sounds like he was kind of a charlatan who convinced216602:01:53.239 --> 02:01:55.720
them to go to convince everybody to leave their home,216702:01:55.800 --> 02:02:01.199
and clearly the home grieved it for a very long time.216802:02:01.319 --> 02:02:01.520
Yeah.216902:02:01.880 --> 02:02:05.359
Yeah, the story is a folk tale after all, and217002:02:05.399 --> 02:02:08.840
the motif of enchanted music used to seduce mortals into217102:02:08.880 --> 02:02:12.520
another realm is a staple of fairy stories throughout Europe.217202:02:12.880 --> 02:02:15.319
It is like the element of the rats quite likely217302:02:15.359 --> 02:02:20.439
a bit of embroidery by storytellers steeped in lush lore. Yeah,217402:02:20.479 --> 02:02:22.880
I think that sounds pretty accurate.217502:02:23.199 --> 02:02:24.079
Yeah.217602:02:24.199 --> 02:02:26.479
That is interesting though. That so instead of a piper217702:02:26.479 --> 02:02:30.000
coming and stealing the kids, it was like basically a217802:02:30.039 --> 02:02:36.359
powerful representative of some lordship coming and being like, hey,217902:02:36.399 --> 02:02:38.159
you kids, want to go somewhere where it's like way218002:02:38.159 --> 02:02:42.039
cooler than here, Come with me. Look, I have funny pants.218102:02:44.000 --> 02:02:46.479
In the early years of the story's evolution, the seductive218202:02:46.560 --> 02:02:50.319
music could also be most psychologically compelling. The most psychologically218302:02:50.359 --> 02:02:53.479
compelling element of the story healing wounds in a community218402:02:53.479 --> 02:02:56.479
that suffered this loss. Regardless of the cause of the218502:02:56.479 --> 02:03:01.439
tragedy through plague, children's crusade, dancing mania, or undane recruitment efforts,218602:03:01.760 --> 02:03:05.760
Ascribing this tragedy to an irresistible supernatural agency might relieve218702:03:05.840 --> 02:03:09.520
the sense of guilt of those remaining behind. Yeah, and218802:03:09.560 --> 02:03:12.800
for modern audiences, the magic piping does, after all, make218902:03:12.920 --> 02:03:15.920
for an engaging tale, one that's lived to mark it's219002:03:15.960 --> 02:03:20.079
seven hundred and thirty fifth anniversary at the time of219102:03:20.119 --> 02:03:20.960
this writing.219202:03:21.359 --> 02:03:21.680
Wow.219302:03:23.279 --> 02:03:25.960
Yeah, to me, it sounds more like it's almost like, yeah,219402:03:26.000 --> 02:03:29.399
like I was saying, like it's grieving them all leaving.219502:03:29.920 --> 02:03:31.159
Yeah, that makes sense.219602:03:31.960 --> 02:03:35.560
So geez. Yeah, I never thought about like I always219702:03:35.680 --> 02:03:37.720
I always just assume because of the Rats. The Pied219802:03:37.760 --> 02:03:40.680
Piper was about the Black Death. I didn't have no219902:03:40.720 --> 02:03:41.359
idea about this.220002:03:41.920 --> 02:03:43.840
Yeah, I didn't really think about it at all.220102:03:44.039 --> 02:03:47.520
Honestly, Sorry, you don't think about folklore at all because220202:03:47.560 --> 02:03:50.199
where you grew up, nobody ever told any fun stories220302:03:50.319 --> 02:03:53.920
or anything. They nobody saw ghosts or heard about ghosts220402:03:54.039 --> 02:03:54.600
or anything.220502:03:57.239 --> 02:04:00.199
Sure, I mean we didn't. We didn't. We weren't all220602:04:00.239 --> 02:04:03.199
folk glory like you are. But we saw definitely saw220702:04:03.359 --> 02:04:04.680
ghosts and stuff.220802:04:04.960 --> 02:04:14.399
Just where'd you see ghosts in my house? Okay? But220902:04:14.439 --> 02:04:15.319
what about big feet?221002:04:16.319 --> 02:04:22.039
No? See, I was from city people, when't tim?221102:04:23.239 --> 02:04:24.840
Oh, so now you're calling me a yokeel?221202:04:25.199 --> 02:04:25.520
Wow?221302:04:26.319 --> 02:04:27.159
Is everybody hearing this?221402:04:29.319 --> 02:04:30.640
Just a little geez?221502:04:34.239 --> 02:04:37.000
Well, we're gonna take a quick break and wrap up221602:04:37.039 --> 02:04:40.479
this month's episode of Monthly Spooky with some horror films221702:04:40.479 --> 02:04:42.960
I saw in the theater and Michelle bringing us what221802:04:43.039 --> 02:04:46.720
she has described to me as the most terrifying Reddit221902:04:46.880 --> 02:04:50.319
entry ever known to man. They can't hear you shaking222002:04:50.359 --> 02:04:53.079
your head, so they don't know that I'm setting you222102:04:53.159 --> 02:04:57.239
up for failure. But we'll get to all that right222202:04:57.279 --> 02:05:08.039
after this. We're back wrapping up this month's Monthly spooky,222302:05:08.880 --> 02:05:11.760
and I wanted to talk about horror movies I saw222402:05:11.800 --> 02:05:14.239
in the theater, but there actually weren't a lot this222502:05:14.399 --> 02:05:17.079
go which I guess makes sense because last time there222602:05:17.079 --> 02:05:20.159
were like six in the theater. It was a lot222702:05:20.199 --> 02:05:22.680
of horror movies to see all at once in the222802:05:22.680 --> 02:05:28.199
movie theater. But this go around we had one actual222902:05:28.239 --> 02:05:31.840
horror movie, one sort of horror movie, and one parody223002:05:31.880 --> 02:05:35.760
of horror movies. The parody, of course, was Scary Movie,223102:05:36.760 --> 02:05:42.159
which I didn't love it, but it was amusing. It's223202:05:42.359 --> 02:05:47.960
literally just for millennials who remember how much they loved223302:05:48.119 --> 02:05:52.279
Scary Movie, and it makes but the movie even makes223402:05:52.319 --> 02:05:54.079
fun of that because the whole point is that it's223502:05:54.079 --> 02:05:56.359
a reboot of Scary Movie. Like so it's self aware223602:05:56.399 --> 02:05:59.039
that it's a reboot, and it does all the stuff223702:05:59.039 --> 02:06:02.159
that the horror boots do and makes fun of it, okay,223802:06:03.640 --> 02:06:05.720
which I did appreciate. They did a lot of cool223902:06:05.720 --> 02:06:09.560
stuff like that. They also one thing that really amused224002:06:09.600 --> 02:06:12.119
me is they kept they keep establishing like young characters224102:06:12.119 --> 02:06:14.720
that are supposed to replace the originals, and then the224202:06:14.720 --> 02:06:17.880
originals are just like, I don't like any of you,224302:06:17.079 --> 02:06:22.159
Like you guys are annoying. So it had some funny stuff,224402:06:22.439 --> 02:06:28.039
but I will say that it mostly went after Scream five.224502:06:29.399 --> 02:06:32.960
I think it was Scream five, Like it took Scream224602:06:33.079 --> 02:06:40.000
five's entire structure and redid it and really pointed out224702:06:40.000 --> 02:06:43.760
how not very good Scream five is. Oh wow, because224802:06:43.760 --> 02:06:45.560
when I heard people complaining about it, I was like,224902:06:45.600 --> 02:06:48.119
most of your complaints are actually problems Scream five had225002:06:48.279 --> 02:06:51.119
with like the way it introduced and killed characters and stuff.225102:06:51.119 --> 02:06:55.079
It just didn't work super well. But it was fine.225202:06:55.119 --> 02:06:56.760
If you love scary movie, you should go see it225302:06:56.760 --> 02:06:58.359
because you'll get a laugh out of it, and you'll225402:06:58.479 --> 02:07:00.800
and you'll you'll like, hah, I remember that was funny225502:07:00.800 --> 02:07:05.520
before my back really hurts. I have a mortgage. Is225602:07:06.479 --> 02:07:09.039
there low sodium options at dinner tonight? You know that225702:07:09.119 --> 02:07:12.359
kind of thing? But uh, but I did. I had225802:07:12.359 --> 02:07:14.920
fun with it. I was not a huge scary movie225902:07:14.920 --> 02:07:16.640
fan as a kid, but I liked it fine. I226002:07:16.640 --> 02:07:20.560
thought it was funny. As far as straight up horror movie.226102:07:20.600 --> 02:07:24.560
I saw Passenger, which was a film about haunted roads,226202:07:24.640 --> 02:07:26.920
basically about the idea that there are ghosts that just226302:07:27.000 --> 02:07:30.359
live on roads in general, and like if you're on226402:07:30.439 --> 02:07:33.119
quiet roads, at night, like you never stop like ever,226502:07:33.479 --> 02:07:37.079
because you can welcome this spirit. It had some really226602:07:37.079 --> 02:07:41.560
cool stuff, like it used hobo markings. Oh yeah, that's226702:07:41.600 --> 02:07:43.279
a major part of it is that there are hobo226802:07:43.359 --> 02:07:47.000
markings because they realized that this thing, this symbol left226902:07:47.039 --> 02:07:50.319
on cars. It looks like three claws scratching, but it's227002:07:50.359 --> 02:07:54.079
actually the symbol for not a safe place from hobos.227102:07:55.079 --> 02:07:56.680
It had all these cool things like they're meeting with227202:07:56.760 --> 02:07:58.920
like caravanners and people who live on the road, and227302:07:58.960 --> 02:08:02.079
somebody even says, like you stopped, and they're like, yeah,227402:08:02.159 --> 02:08:04.159
it's like you never stop on a quiet road at227502:08:04.239 --> 02:08:07.399
night ever, you just don't. And I just love the227602:08:07.439 --> 02:08:10.399
idea that like all these like vagabonds know this stuff,227702:08:10.960 --> 02:08:13.560
like they're like, no, there's spirits. And I also thought227802:08:13.560 --> 02:08:16.279
it was really cool because it's just a perfect little227902:08:16.319 --> 02:08:19.600
supernatural horror movie. I mean, it's just fun and creepy.228002:08:20.039 --> 02:08:23.399
But one of my favorite elements was when they're fighting228102:08:23.399 --> 02:08:26.560
off the monster at one point. The thing that gets228202:08:26.560 --> 02:08:29.920
it to like break away from them is the there's228302:08:29.960 --> 02:08:32.319
a Oh that's the other thing about the movie. There's228402:08:32.319 --> 02:08:34.680
a husband and wife or a boyfriend and girlfriend and228502:08:34.720 --> 02:08:36.960
they're doing van life. Like they're living in a van228602:08:37.039 --> 02:08:39.039
and traveling and everything, and I realized, this is the228702:08:39.039 --> 02:08:41.359
first horror movie I'm aware of that has van life228802:08:41.359 --> 02:08:43.319
in it, and I couldn't believe there hadn't been one yet.228902:08:43.600 --> 02:08:44.079
Yeah. Wow.229002:08:44.119 --> 02:08:46.079
So they're like living in the van and driving around.229102:08:46.199 --> 02:08:50.600
But he's Catholic and he has a Saint Christopher, the229202:08:50.640 --> 02:08:54.119
patron Saint of travelers, and it like burns the demon away,229302:08:54.720 --> 02:08:57.279
and then as we kind of learn what is going on,229402:08:57.359 --> 02:09:02.520
it basically turns out it's like the evil Antie sat Christopher. Oh, Like,229502:09:02.600 --> 02:09:06.359
it's like the opposite. It's the demon of travelers versus229602:09:06.439 --> 02:09:08.520
the patron Saint. It was just kind of cool and229702:09:08.560 --> 02:09:12.279
fun and very like exorcisty in that way. So I229802:09:12.279 --> 02:09:13.800
had fun with it. And then I saw the Death229902:09:13.800 --> 02:09:17.039
of Robin Hood, which is not really a horror movie,230002:09:17.079 --> 02:09:21.920
but it was really really good. No one is really230102:09:21.960 --> 02:09:24.720
seeing it, and that's fine. It kind of came out230202:09:25.159 --> 02:09:28.359
not a lot of fanfare, but I loved it. I230302:09:28.399 --> 02:09:31.439
thought it was super good. That director his name is230402:09:31.560 --> 02:09:33.399
escaping me right now, but he did the movie Pig,230502:09:33.479 --> 02:09:35.720
which I loved, and he did Quiet Place Day One,230602:09:35.760 --> 02:09:38.600
which I also loved. He has a superpower of making230702:09:38.640 --> 02:09:40.560
a pretty good movie. And then the last twenty minutes,230802:09:40.560 --> 02:09:42.600
your jaw is just on the floor. It's so good.230902:09:44.159 --> 02:09:45.479
Because I was watching, I was like, yeah, this is231002:09:45.479 --> 02:09:46.840
pretty good. And then in the last twenty minutes, I231102:09:46.880 --> 02:09:47.920
was like, this is one of the best movies I've231202:09:47.960 --> 02:09:50.840
seen this year. Holy crap. Like it's when the cards231302:09:50.840 --> 02:09:53.720
are down and characters are reaching whatever the end of231402:09:53.720 --> 02:09:56.640
their arcs are, he just pulls every stop out and231502:09:56.680 --> 02:10:00.479
makes it so emotional and powerful and good.231602:10:00.880 --> 02:10:01.199
Cool.231702:10:01.520 --> 02:10:04.479
So anyway, so those are the films I saw in231802:10:04.520 --> 02:10:08.359
the theater. Chell, tell us about the scariest Reddit post231902:10:08.439 --> 02:10:11.920
you've ever encountered in your life. No, so, okay, then232002:10:11.920 --> 02:10:12.760
tell us a different one.232102:10:12.880 --> 02:10:16.159
Okay, good, So I had I was having some trouble232202:10:16.880 --> 02:10:20.840
because I'm not it's not a good month. But anyway,232302:10:21.479 --> 02:10:28.760
So there's this person and they basically her family, her232402:10:28.920 --> 02:10:33.079
her mom, and her grandma just we're gonna move to232502:10:33.119 --> 02:10:35.479
a new house. And one of the reasons that they232602:10:35.560 --> 02:10:37.359
bought the house is because it had like a big232702:10:37.399 --> 02:10:41.079
finished basement. So the poster was like, I'm gonna live232802:10:41.680 --> 02:10:43.840
live in the basement, Like there's a separate living area232902:10:43.880 --> 02:10:46.079
in a bedroom and then the mom and the grandma.233002:10:46.279 --> 02:10:49.119
The the grandma is has like the master and the233102:10:49.159 --> 02:10:51.640
mom has just one of the other bedrooms, the three bedrooms.233202:10:51.720 --> 02:10:56.560
There's three bedrooms upstairs. Cool, everything's good, whatever, Yeah, I233302:10:56.560 --> 02:11:01.279
guess go on. They they go, oh, I think her233402:11:01.279 --> 02:11:03.479
and her mom. I don't think her grandma came. They like,233502:11:03.520 --> 02:11:09.159
go on a trip somewhere, come back. The basement is gone.233602:11:09.359 --> 02:11:13.439
And they're both like, why is there no basement? Oh? Wait, no, no, no, no.233702:11:13.720 --> 02:11:15.640
Her mom is like, there's never been a basement. But233802:11:15.680 --> 02:11:18.039
she's like, but I lived in the basement. But her233902:11:18.039 --> 02:11:23.000
grandma's like, I'm pretty sure there was a basement. And234002:11:23.000 --> 02:11:26.000
and the grandma doesn't live in the master bedroom anymore.234102:11:26.439 --> 02:11:29.880
The poster does and she's like, I don't and like234202:11:29.960 --> 02:11:32.119
all her posters are up and stuff, so like it's234302:11:32.119 --> 02:11:35.800
her bedroom. But she's like, but there was always a basement,234402:11:35.880 --> 02:11:38.560
and I don't understand. And they called, like the realtor,234502:11:38.600 --> 02:11:42.479
and the realtor's like, no, there's no basement in that house.234602:11:43.079 --> 02:11:47.119
So she's like, what's going on. That's that's what happens.234702:11:47.880 --> 02:11:52.800
Yeah, that one. That one's tough. I mean to make234802:11:52.800 --> 02:11:54.560
an argument about what what he got.234902:11:54.880 --> 02:11:57.640
Well, then two days later she posted she edited it235002:11:57.680 --> 02:12:00.199
and she said, we had a gas leak. So well,235102:12:00.479 --> 02:12:05.479
if that's true, they had a gas Like if not,235202:12:05.640 --> 02:12:06.760
none of that was real.235302:12:07.159 --> 02:12:10.720
Sounds like a classic gas leak I mean scenario.235402:12:11.600 --> 02:12:16.079
I mean, yeah, it's now people were talking about like235502:12:16.199 --> 02:12:18.319
a couple of years ago where there was someone who235602:12:18.359 --> 02:12:22.880
was like, there was a closet, but the closet is gone,235702:12:22.920 --> 02:12:25.119
it's not a closet anymore, and there's always this closet235802:12:25.159 --> 02:12:28.119
here and I can't find the closet anymore. And then235902:12:28.199 --> 02:12:30.199
they posted like two days later like I have a236002:12:30.199 --> 02:12:34.439
brain tumor so like yeah, so they were comparing it236102:12:34.479 --> 02:12:37.079
to that one. So if you think things have changed236202:12:37.319 --> 02:12:41.239
a lot, you might have something seriously wrong with you.236302:12:41.960 --> 02:12:44.760
Yeah. Well, I mean because we've all had like moments236402:12:44.800 --> 02:12:47.960
where memories are vaguely like mildly wrong and then we236502:12:48.039 --> 02:12:50.079
just kind of correct it. We'll just kind of be like, oh,236602:12:50.119 --> 02:12:51.800
I thought this was like you know, I thought we236702:12:51.840 --> 02:12:53.760
had I thought this place had a two gargarage, Like no,236802:12:53.800 --> 02:12:55.560
obviously it didn't. Like you've lived here, like you know,236902:12:55.600 --> 02:12:58.680
there's no two gargarage. Just for some reason your brain flipped,237002:12:59.359 --> 02:13:02.039
you know, like crossed a wire and for a second237102:13:02.039 --> 02:13:04.319
you just thought of a different garage for some reason,237202:13:04.560 --> 02:13:07.479
you know, because brains are complicated. Yeah, but we usually237302:13:07.520 --> 02:13:09.359
just go, oh, yeah, that was just a whoops, no,237402:13:09.880 --> 02:13:12.960
like we were done. But if you were like suffering237502:13:12.960 --> 02:13:15.520
from a brain tumor, or you were being poisoned by237602:13:15.520 --> 02:13:19.479
a gas leak, it can be harder to differentiate those things.237702:13:19.520 --> 02:13:22.560
It can be harder to correct. You know, you're just237802:13:22.600 --> 02:13:26.479
going to keep kind of spiraling off. I guess. Yeah.237902:13:27.520 --> 02:13:30.800
That is My favorite Reddit trope is the whole like,238002:13:31.079 --> 02:13:34.600
uh have do you have a carbon monoxide detector? I've238102:13:34.640 --> 02:13:37.640
always found that funny but also incredibly useful.238202:13:38.560 --> 02:13:41.319
Yeah it is because it's it's really happened where people238302:13:41.399 --> 02:13:44.119
have lived in a house and thought that something was238402:13:44.680 --> 02:13:46.960
really really fucked up happening, and it turned out they238502:13:46.960 --> 02:13:48.800
were just being exposed to carbon monoxide.238602:13:48.960 --> 02:13:52.760
So yeah, I mean, I'll be that way when I'm238702:13:52.800 --> 02:13:56.199
really stressed out, but it'll be like about like no,238802:13:56.479 --> 02:13:59.159
I'll well, I'll just think something for sure was there238902:13:59.199 --> 02:14:01.560
and then I have to realie I like nope, or239002:14:01.600 --> 02:14:02.960
like you know, like I'll wake up in the morning,239102:14:03.039 --> 02:14:04.600
and I'll be like, oh, yeah, obviously, why was I239202:14:04.640 --> 02:14:07.640
looking for tob larone? I never bought a toblarone. Why239302:14:07.680 --> 02:14:09.479
would there be to blarone in the house? You know,239402:14:09.600 --> 02:14:12.039
Like I mean, they're little things that don't like drive239502:14:12.039 --> 02:14:14.119
you crazy. They're just like little moments where you're like239602:14:14.680 --> 02:14:18.159
I thought I did, Yeah, well whatever, back to my life.239702:14:18.800 --> 02:14:21.239
Maybe I just live too stressed out. You did acknowledge239802:14:21.239 --> 02:14:23.159
I live under pressure, which I appreciate.239902:14:25.119 --> 02:14:27.520
I know you don't need a carbon monoxide detector because240002:14:27.520 --> 02:14:32.720
you don't have any gas in your house at all? Uh,240102:14:32.840 --> 02:14:37.000
I mean no, that's not your Yeah, your furnace.240202:14:36.680 --> 02:14:40.279
And yeah, oh natural gas. Check your carbon and I240302:14:40.319 --> 02:14:43.640
have a carbon monoxide detector, is it okay?240402:14:43.720 --> 02:14:45.720
Has it been there for more than ten years?240502:14:46.600 --> 02:14:48.520
Not for ten years? No, it's been there for two240602:14:48.600 --> 02:14:49.000
and a half.240702:14:49.199 --> 02:14:50.680
Do you change the batteries every.240802:14:50.600 --> 02:14:52.680
Year it's plugged in?240902:14:53.920 --> 02:14:56.600
Do you change the batteries and the plug in thing?241002:14:59.880 --> 02:15:04.479
Uh? Now, I'm gonna check because you're making me nervous. Sorry. See.241102:15:04.560 --> 02:15:07.680
Then I'll be like, but I my carbonoxide detector doesn't241202:15:07.680 --> 02:15:09.479
have batteries. Then I'm gonna look at it and it'll take batteries,241302:15:09.520 --> 02:15:11.359
and I'll be like, what not, I guess it's not241402:15:11.399 --> 02:15:13.880
working because I didn't remember it.241502:15:13.640 --> 02:15:17.000
