Speaker 1 (00:00):
Hello the Internet, and welcome to this episode of We

with Tyler Perry's Trendia. Let's go with Tyler Perry's Trendia.
All right, that one courtesy of Vanadium Silver on the
Discord Throw to be joined by today's very special guest
(00:22):
co host. It's Jachesnel.
Speaker 2 (00:27):
Neil New and Jack O'Brian.
Speaker 1 (00:31):
Oh yeah, I'm Jack O'Brian. What's up man?
Speaker 2 (00:35):
Everything is? Everything's unus down.
Speaker 1 (00:38):
We're also joined by superroducer Brian because our first story
is about magic mushrooms mite and Brian's a bit of
a mushroom head likes to do the booms.
Speaker 2 (00:55):
Just so everyone knows I am a cop.
Speaker 1 (01:00):
I just want you to know off topic, I do
have to tell you.
Speaker 2 (01:03):
That I'm required to tell.
Speaker 1 (01:06):
You, Brian, how are you? How are you? Might good?
And so let everyone know also that I'm not in America.
Not in America, So y'all can't do shit.
Speaker 2 (01:21):
Damn a weakness. I can't. My jurisdiction stops in the
forty eight contingent United States.
Speaker 1 (01:29):
Not a federal quote Martin Lawrence and H.
Speaker 3 (01:33):
Street Wilson, Yeah it is and a young and a
young Dave Chappellee.
Speaker 1 (01:49):
Now that movie ripped good. I do love Blue Stroke.
That's very funny in the theaters. All right. Uh so,
the first story we have here apparently they found a
mushroom that is giving everyone the same, very specific, very
strange hallucination. I'm just gonna read from this BBC article,
which does a very nice job. We'll link off to
(02:10):
it in the footnotes. Every year, doctors at a hospital
and the Unan province of China race themselves for an
influx of people with an unusual complaint. The patients come
with a strikingly odd symptom, visions of pint sized elf
like figures marching underdoors, crawling up walls, and clinging to furniture.
(02:31):
Hell yeah, bro, this is straight up out of Paprika.
I need to go to China right now. Yeah, it
is out of Paprika. It's out of like also like
it's like Willy Wonka type the shit goes south.
Speaker 2 (02:46):
Yeah, okay, it's.
Speaker 1 (02:50):
I didn't know, like I've been out of the mushroom
game for a while, so I didn't realize we had
found some shit that are like proscriptive where they're like, oh,
you want, you want to see little tiny people crawling
up your walls, then take this one. Like, my experience
with mushrooms was that you knew something was going to
happen with your brain, you didn't know what was going
(03:12):
to do.
Speaker 2 (03:13):
So this feels like, uh, this feels like when I
start adding ship to drugs, I think the mushrooms that
I have had either it's not my mother's mushrooms, No,
my mama's mushrooms.
Speaker 4 (03:24):
Those kind of drugs always interest me, like where people
tend to have shared experiences like salvia.
Speaker 1 (03:32):
Or d MT right, DMT like fractals, Right, isn't that m.
Speaker 4 (03:37):
Yeah, those are always really really interesting to me when
people report the same types of things during a drug
trip across cultures.
Speaker 1 (03:46):
Yeah, this is like salvia.
Speaker 4 (03:49):
Like a lot of people report being teleported into like
a forest or some shit, And that's happened to me before.
I'm pretty sure I was a rock of some sort
or a stone.
Speaker 1 (03:59):
That was alba. Yeah, he fored you to a to
a forest and you are just like a part of
the forest.
Speaker 4 (04:06):
Yeah, it was really really interesting, also kind of uncomfortable.
Speaker 1 (04:11):
How do you get home from the forest?
Speaker 2 (04:13):
Yeah, what happened?
Speaker 4 (04:14):
It only twenty minutes, but it feels a lot longer.
Speaker 1 (04:18):
And then DMT, you know, people report the machine elves,
which machine elves, yes, which I did, said that like
that it's a thing.
Speaker 4 (04:29):
And when I did d MT, I definitely saw some
one question mark, some sort of entity that I'm like, okay,
that that must be what they're talking about. So is
this enjoyable d MT, it's any of it? Yeah, this
(04:51):
sounds awful.
Speaker 1 (04:52):
It's not off for something I want to go insane
for fifteen to twenty minutes. I don't know, it's definitely
not awful.
Speaker 4 (04:59):
Like d like, you get to see shape you didn't
know existed, colors you've never seen before.
Speaker 1 (05:06):
It's a little cool, but it's cool. It's very cool.
It's very interesting.
Speaker 2 (05:10):
What if you have anxiety. See, Like, I'm a shrooms head.
I do do shrooms. I do do shrooms. That rooms,
that's where they grow. I do shrooms. But when I
was doing them for a long time, I was doing
them like a little more consistently a few years ago,
and then I had a terrible trip. Yeah, just like
(05:32):
there's one bad trip and like and it was an
anxiety indooced and like those are the worst, and so like,
do you have anxiety on it? I know, we got
to get back to the China's rooms, but like are
these from China? Yeah, we gotta get back to the
China's rooms, but like are these like do you have anxiety?
What if you have anxiety on d m T.
Speaker 4 (05:50):
I wouldn't recommend that if you are ron if anyone's
prone to anxiety to like maybe Tippy too into psychedelic
if you do want to try it, or just leave
it alone, because although she can be wild, I always
had very bad experiences with weed, not not always, I
have like fifty percent of the time.
Speaker 1 (06:11):
I would get real paranoid on weed. But the mushrooms
were always good to me.
Speaker 4 (06:15):
So you know, for instance, my partner she gets anxious
from time to time, and I've started her on microdosing
mushrooms and it's been helping reduce the anxiety. So I
guess it just depends on the dose and set in
the setting. But this mushroom in China, it is particularly
(06:36):
interesting because everyone reports.
Speaker 1 (06:40):
The exact same thing, and it's also not just this
mushroom in China. They found us another culture that has
a similar report of a type of mushroom that if
you eat it and don't cook it well enough. So
this is how it's happening. People aren't doing this on
purpose because it is this one does not sound like
(07:01):
it's super fun.
Speaker 2 (07:03):
The trips.
Speaker 1 (07:05):
The trips it produces are unusually long, commonly lasting one
to three days after an onset of twelve to twenty
four hours, and in some cases even causing hospital stays
of up to a week, and just little people crawling
all over everywhere you can see so in I know,
(07:26):
like you kind of just like, what are they like?
By the ways, this is not a this is not
exclusive to this mushroom. The Liliputian hallucinations is the psychiatric
term for the perception of tiny human beings. I remember
reading about that that's a fairly common hallucination in Oliver
(07:49):
Sachs's book Hallucinations, which I highly recommend people read. It's
not just about drug hallucinations. It's about you know, people
who had strokes, people who you know. Sometimes it's just
like people have a traumatic, like emotionally traumatic thing happened
to them and they.
Speaker 2 (08:07):
Start I unless it was like a hundred Gary Colemans
when he was like a kid.
Speaker 1 (08:14):
Yeah, How charismatic are they? That's the how does it
get into are they? Are they funny? Are they fun
to hang with? Just like running around being like, hey man.
Speaker 4 (08:26):
That's my thing. I don't get when I do regular psychedelics.
I don't get a lot of visuals just in general.
And I can't say I've ever had any true hallucinations.
So I'm very very curious, yes.
Speaker 1 (08:43):
Uh yeah, to do to do these ones and just
see see some little hallucinations. I want to see some
ship that I know is not there. This story brought
to you by Molly Conger's Weird Little Guys on the
podcast about Weird Little Republics. But yeah, another way to
experience weird little guys. We've got plenty of them in
(09:05):
our news stories. But you know, Oliver Sach, speaking about
the fact that these hallucinations are like pretty common the
kind of little little people, said that visions of monsters
one of the most common forms of hallucination a little
a Putian hallucination involves sightings of tiny people. Quote. I
(09:27):
think people probably see leprechauns in Ireland and trolls in Norway.
I suspect that many of these strange creatures have if
not been engendered, been facilitated by hallucination. So kind of
an interesting thing that ties back to our leprechaun icons.
All right, you know, well report back.
Speaker 2 (09:48):
When you do it. When you get these shrooms, I
want to know how you do it. I'll send you
flowers to the hospital.
Speaker 1 (09:52):
I know it doesn't sound fun.
Speaker 2 (09:55):
This sounds terrible.
Speaker 1 (09:56):
Manse longside effects such as delirium and dizziness. That just
sounds The guy who studies them like still hasn't done it.
He's like, I don't know many that sounds terrible. I
have a guy who studies mushroom hallucinations for a living,
and I still haven't done it. Yeah, they found people
(10:21):
having these same hallucinations in Papua New Guinea, China, and like,
the mushrooms don't even look the same. So it might
be similar to psilocybin, which, like you know that that
shows up in mushrooms of different kinds in different places
around the world. And psilocybin actually evolved haar like separately,
(10:43):
completely independently of each other, two versions of psilocybin separately
around the world.
Speaker 2 (10:49):
So it's uh, it's all happening, man and man, what
happened to the good old days when we just shot
up a little crack.
Speaker 1 (10:57):
Now those yeah, you're not just seeing like Heroin. You
become very predictable. That's the thing about crack. Mushrooms are unpredictable.
One time I saw my mother's eyes and a bunch
of like paintings that I was looking at at the museum,
(11:18):
and it was like very fun and beautiful spiritual experience.
And another time I was like, oh, I shouldn't have
this much body hair. My hair freaked me out and
I was just spent three hours. I want it all off. Yeah,
I want it all off. You know they say, eyebrows down,
(11:38):
get rid of those eyebrows. Man, let's go. Let's good.
Speaker 2 (11:41):
It's so funny.
Speaker 1 (11:42):
Oh no, Jack, that's your best feature, my brows. Thanks man, brows.
That's what I've always people would think was my best feature.
It's my eyebrows.
Speaker 2 (11:53):
Got strong jaw line and good browst.
Speaker 1 (11:58):
Go watch the clips on you tube. Yeah, go out
the clips on YouTube. You can see my powerful eyebrows.
And I have to cut once a month or else
they start connecting with my hair. That's how out of
out of control they get. Crazy eyebrows. They went like
up to here.
Speaker 2 (12:19):
They were big dick Ones, Chancellor boys.
Speaker 1 (12:22):
Boys, big Chonky boys. All right, let's take a quick break.
We're going to talk about my eyebrows during the break,
and then we'll come back and talk about other stuff.
We'll be right back and we're back. Top five people
(12:45):
without eyebrows, Go whoopy oldber whoopee, whoopee. That I think
number one. I don't think I can go bet. There's
the guy from a from Barry Brooklyn nine nine. Yeah,
the guy the goth have eyebrows? No, but I think
those are shaved me a goth a god.
Speaker 2 (13:04):
I feel like I've seen her with eyebrows home before, which.
Speaker 1 (13:07):
I feel like she could really rock like no eyebrows.
Andre is that guy's name I think who has no eyebrows?
The Giant, not the Giant.
Speaker 2 (13:18):
Can you imagine if Andre the giants tall ass didn't
have eyebrows?
Speaker 1 (13:24):
All right, let's let's talk about some news. Besides that,
there's a very specific mushroom that you can take and
have a It's almost like Willy Wonka style where it's
like a mushroom that gives you a very specific thing. Anyways,
the White House is proposing changing ice agents too, nice agents.
(13:45):
They're they're going to add an N to the front
of the name ICE to be the National Immigration and
Customs Enforcement. It's just a little a little triggering the libs,
you know, they're just doing a trigger the libs. They
think it's funny. This is started by a conservative influencer,
and Donald Trump was like, we should do it. Do it,
(14:07):
great idea, do it President DJT. He wrote that on
truth Social whilst using a photo like a screencap of
a tweet, because even conservative influencers don't use truth social
because it sucks shit. But it's not that funny of
a joke for an agency that's killed at least forty
(14:28):
six people during the second term Trump. The administration, meanwhile,
is purging immigration judges and hiring new ones who are
like we talked before about how you know he brought
that woman in to prosecute one of his cases like
(14:48):
that he was just like mad at someone and so
he's like, bring this case against them, and she was
I think she was like an attorney who like worked
for an insurance company in Florida who he just like
thought was pretty, and so he brought her in and
she did bad job. So he's like yeah, and she
had to be fired. He's doing that with judge with
(15:09):
immigration judges. One of the new immigration judges, Melissa Isaac,
was a divorce attorney for men only. She said two
types of women. There are good, solid, valuable women who
are assets to men. Then there's a warm wet hole.
(15:29):
That's what. That's the person who.
Speaker 2 (15:33):
You know, she might be no job. She also helped,
that's crazy to say.
Speaker 1 (15:42):
She also helped to defend Alabama pedophile Republican Roy Moore
when he was accused of molesting a fourteen year old.
Gave a speech at a Manisphere conference titled Divorcing Feminism
so great that she'll be hearing asylum case in which
women are fleeing violence, sometimes sexual violence.
Speaker 2 (16:06):
Yeah, yeah, you know the outrage that I don't feel
is concerning exactly. But it's just because like it's always outrage,
so deep in the so deep in the outrage bag
right now. It's wild though, to you know, to be
this type of a pigmy, uh, a warm wet hole
(16:27):
is a wild thing to say. Yeah, and I'm a
man and I'm like, damn, damn respect women more.
Speaker 1 (16:37):
That's too much. Yeah, Like there's one who denied humanitarian
protection to a Serbian immigrant for like criticized the government,
and she said they freely chose to draw unwanted attention
to herself and her family. People who live in glass
houses should not throw stones, essentially saying that an immigrant
who practices freedom of speech gets what's coming to them.
(16:58):
The Serbia and immigrant that they deny, uh was because
they were suffering homophobic threats. That was why they were
asking for asylum. And she was like, he doesn't seem
gay enough, like, so I'm not worried about him. He's
gonna be fine enough. Nice, He's fine.
Speaker 2 (17:17):
Switch is not gay, switch is not is not overly
left and right?
Speaker 1 (17:21):
That's right? Who is this person?
Speaker 2 (17:25):
This person is insane? Is this a different person? This
is a new judge, Carrie Holiday, new judge, new judge,
the true judge just dropped.
Speaker 1 (17:37):
Man. Two thirds of their new judicial hires have no
immigration law experience whatsoever.
Speaker 2 (17:44):
Because because if you did, then you would actually uh deem.
The things that Ice is doing is as illegal because
by the law it is illegal.
Speaker 1 (17:55):
Nice. I believe, I believe you meant the nice agents.
Speaker 2 (17:59):
I'm so sorry. I'm so sorry the nice agents.
Speaker 1 (18:02):
Lindsay Grant so As we talked about that, there was
a lot there were a lot of rumors that, uh,
the attack on the White House Correspondence Center was a
false flag attack, attack to try and justify the ballroom
being built by the White House. And while that seems
like the dumbest, like lowest stakes false flag like Putin
(18:26):
did it false flag attacks where he like bombed a
bunch of apartment buildings, but like he used that to
stay in power and like fix the elections. He didn't
do it to like fucking get get a project approved.
But I don't think that's what happened. And yet everything
they're doing is so it's all they're talking about.
Speaker 2 (18:48):
They're just like, apparently the shooter is and it wasn't
didn't even shoot not in did you see there?
Speaker 1 (18:53):
So they're they're claiming that he shot once.
Speaker 2 (18:56):
Okay, yeah, of course, right, and yeah, yes.
Speaker 1 (19:04):
That whole like So the other thing that's come out
is that the White House Correspondence Center was security was
lower than usual. The event was not given quote National
Special Security Event status, meaning they didn't get the full
amount of resources possible for security, despite the fact they
had basically every top official in Trump's cabinet there. They
(19:27):
had the entire So if someone had actually managed to
take out that ballroom, it would have left Chuck grass
Lea of Iowa in charge of the country. That's where
we would have been if they if that had been
a successful attack. The investigation, as you mentioned, charge, I
(19:52):
don't know that a lot of people don't know the
line of.
Speaker 2 (19:55):
People right after Chuck.
Speaker 1 (20:02):
The investigation, as you mentioned, is starting to be a
little bit suspicious. Todd Blinch says, finding evidence is quote
not an exact science end quote. Sometimes you find the
bullet and sometimes it just disappears. Okay, sure, So, like
everybody lower your expectations.
Speaker 2 (20:22):
I wonder do people who are still MAGA fans and
I know the answer to it. I mean, here's the thing.
Whenever anybody who is not a MAGA fan asks this question,
we know the answer, and the answer is they love
racism too much and that's why they are MAGA fans.
But if let's take that off the table for four
(20:42):
of them, do those four MAGA fans who aren't overtly
racist and that's what they really care about when they
hear shit like this, and don't think this is the
most incompetent shit that I've ever heard like in my life,
and this is supposed to be who I think is
the best swamp.
Speaker 1 (21:03):
They always have that as their go to where they're like,
he's being failed by the swamp. They don't. They want
him dead. So that's probably.
Speaker 2 (21:10):
Why he he's trying to he's trying to drain the
swamp he's he's working on.
Speaker 1 (21:19):
But uh, yes, to your point. One of the reasons
that suddenly this bullet became so hard to find, I'm
assuming they're talking about the bullet was shot by the
attempted assassin. The assailant might be because it wasn't fired. Uh.
Sky News is reporting that the like some people now
(21:44):
believe that the Secret Service agent who was shot was
shot either by himself or another Secret Service agent, which
anybody who's familiar with my JFK assassination conspiracy theory that
the cover up was because he had the second shot
that blew his head clean off was actually fired from
(22:07):
a Secret Service agent on accidents right behind him. Yeah.
Speaker 4 (22:11):
Right, So you got to remember recently Joe Biden's security
shot himself while looking for a phone in a car,
remembering that, right, Yeah, they love to do that.
Speaker 2 (22:23):
That's because Joe Biden security was too busy trying not
to get a bit by them dogs.
Speaker 1 (22:29):
Why he shot himself just to like go on leave.
So he attacked by these fucking vicious dogs. But yeah, anyway,
and friendly fire is like much more common than anybody admits.
It's almost like a system where like shooting at people
(22:54):
is not a good system. Yeah, it might be bad.
National security also take very seriously because we recently learned
that Tucker Carlson said, someone texted me we're going about
the Iran war. So they're texting Iran war plans to
Tucker Carlson's cell phone. Just have to assume King Charles
(23:16):
is feeling safe for his visit.
Speaker 2 (23:19):
Of course he is. Of course he is, like these
crazy motherfucker's going to kill me fifteen days earlier and
then I'm gonna die, And that is god.
Speaker 1 (23:29):
That is a good King Charles impression. By the way,
these motherfuckers, these motherfuckers.
Speaker 2 (23:37):
Oh yeah, man, I forgot he was here. I saw
a tweet of someone speaking of King Charles who said,
oh would you look at this, a king here with
a motorcade and nobody's protesting so much for the no kings.
(23:59):
Oh my and I'm like Jesus Christ, you guys are
just different intelligence.
Speaker 1 (24:07):
We don't like Kings. Also, he doesn't have any power.
Ours has all the power in the world. It's a
little different, a little different. But yeah, they're uh wow,
So I don't I don't see you complaining right now.
Speaker 2 (24:24):
So you're complain about Kings now, must just be TDS.
Speaker 1 (24:29):
Interesting. I do suffer from TDS, but you know it's
not my funt.
Speaker 2 (24:34):
John Fetterman has convinced me that we are all of us,
all the Democrats, and.
Speaker 1 (24:39):
John Fetterman is the one who I go to for
mental health advice. He seems like he's got his ship together.
He can't even drive a car. Jd vance mentor Peter Teal,
we got we got a couple. So we've got leak
recordings from a private lecture by Peter Teal. We've talked
about this that his he's doing this lecture all over
(25:02):
the place about the Antichrist. In this lecture, he suggests
that the pope should be ignored, that the Pope is
in fact an instrument of the Antichrist.
Speaker 2 (25:15):
I've been saying that for years.
Speaker 1 (25:16):
He revealed you have been up and down. That guy's
the instrument of the Antichrist. He also revealed he advised
Jadvans to ignore the Pope on matters of morality and
that Jadvans should pray for the Pope. It's just like
it is. It's the hot dog sketch for like it's
(25:38):
it couldn't be more the Tim Robinson and a hot
dog soup, being like, we're all looking for who did this,
We're all trying to find out who the Antichrist is.
Me a person who when asked like would you rather
have like a I go forward or humanity be wiped out?
I like I just like started sweating profusely, like couldn't
(26:01):
answer the question. Come in, come, listen to me. Peter
Teal tell you who the anti Christ is? Uh, who's
going to bring about the fall of humanity? Anyways, we
also have leaked emails, so we got a leaked recording
from his lecture. We also got leaked emails just showing
what his relationship was like with Epstein. Uh. And Epstein
(26:22):
called Teal a great friend and told Larry Summers, Peter
Teale autistic, no global sense to what Peter TiAl Peter
t because Epstein was a great uh, just one of
the great writers. That's really a wordsmith word smith.
Speaker 2 (26:42):
Yes, was he trying to say artistic or did he
mean autistic?
Speaker 1 (26:46):
No, he autistic.
Speaker 2 (26:47):
He meant autistic. Is me tale autistic? Is that a es?
Speaker 1 (26:52):
Yeah? I don't want to No, I don't want to
cast dispersions on autistic people like that's yeah, Yeah.
Speaker 2 (27:01):
Of course I don't want to.
Speaker 1 (27:03):
I don't think that's his problem, Chack. That's why we
have Brian here.
Speaker 2 (27:10):
Yeah, he's currently on China's rooms.
Speaker 1 (27:13):
Yeah. He made various efforts. Epstein made various efforts on
behalf of Teal to like introduce him. He emailed Teal
in twenty fifteen, what types of twenty fifteen? Again was
years after he's like out of prison for child sex trafficking.
What types of people would you find most appetizing? Europe, Mideast,
(27:36):
Russian politics, science, wu? Teal responded, I don't know what
WU was. Teal responded, kind of obsessed with politics this year.
Russian European always interesting. And then Epstein connected him with
like a Russian official and spy academy graduate who complimented
teals insight into the Russian economy. So it's like it's
just that's how It's just like billionaires get an enough
(28:00):
money and then you become part of this like shadowy
cabal of people who like meet each other and figure
out ways to pull the strings on ship behind the scenes.
It's like exactly as bad as it seems, but like
kind of worse, Like as bad as like a melodramatic
eighties spy movie would make you think it is, but worse. Yeah,
(28:23):
the bad guys are as bad as you could possibly imagine.
Speaker 2 (28:27):
I would I would strongly push back on Russians being appetizing.
I feel like they wouldn't be appetizing at all. You
don't want to Russian now European I could, but a
Russian I feel like, you know, I think I think
a mid East. I think mid East would be a
more appetizing, tastes better, more seasoning.
Speaker 1 (28:47):
Are you talking about the people? Are you talking about
their food, not the people? That's what I'm thinking.
Speaker 2 (28:54):
Yeah, what types of people would you find most appetizing?
You know, you're mid East? Russian? Politics, science woo, you know,
and appetizing.
Speaker 1 (29:02):
Definitely not eating politics people, No, they're.
Speaker 2 (29:06):
Gonna be might be good.
Speaker 1 (29:08):
We might know they're probably Yeah, Actually that would be
that's like, could are we talking when we say woo?
What what? What? What do we think they mean? Woo?
Speaker 2 (29:19):
It could be just a bunch of Rick Flair.
Speaker 1 (29:23):
Just go on flair, all right, that's gonna instead of
speculating on his racist email. Well, uh, we'll move along.
That is going to do it for us This Tuesday,

last episode of the show. Until then, be kind to
(29:44):

Hello the Internet, and welcome to this episode of We
could go with missus trend Fire, or we could go
with Tyler Perry's Trendia. Let's go with Tyler Perry's Trendia.
All right, that one courtesy of Vanadium Silver on the
Discord Throw to be joined by today's very special guest
(00:22):
co host. It's Jachesnel.
Speaker 2 (00:27):
Neil New and Jack O'Brian.
Speaker 1 (00:31):
Oh yeah, I'm Jack O'Brian. What's up man?
Speaker 2 (00:35):
Everything is? Everything's unus down.
Speaker 1 (00:38):
We're also joined by superroducer Brian because our first story
is about magic mushrooms mite and Brian's a bit of
a mushroom head likes to do the booms.
Speaker 2 (00:55):
Just so everyone knows I am a cop.
Speaker 1 (01:00):
I just want you to know off topic, I do
have to tell you.
Speaker 2 (01:03):
That I'm required to tell.
Speaker 1 (01:06):
You, Brian, how are you? How are you? Might good?
And so let everyone know also that I'm not in America.
Not in America, So y'all can't do shit.
Speaker 2 (01:21):
Damn a weakness. I can't. My jurisdiction stops in the
forty eight contingent United States.
Speaker 1 (01:29):
Not a federal quote Martin Lawrence and H.
Speaker 3 (01:33):
Street Wilson, Yeah it is and a young and a
young Dave Chappellee.
Speaker 1 (01:49):
Now that movie ripped good. I do love Blue Stroke.
That's very funny in the theaters. All right. Uh so,
the first story we have here apparently they found a
mushroom that is giving everyone the same, very specific, very
strange hallucination. I'm just gonna read from this BBC article,
which does a very nice job. We'll link off to
(02:10):
it in the footnotes. Every year, doctors at a hospital
and the Unan province of China race themselves for an
influx of people with an unusual complaint. The patients come
with a strikingly odd symptom, visions of pint sized elf
like figures marching underdoors, crawling up walls, and clinging to furniture.
(02:31):
Hell yeah, bro, this is straight up out of Paprika.
I need to go to China right now. Yeah, it
is out of Paprika. It's out of like also like
it's like Willy Wonka type the shit goes south.
Speaker 2 (02:46):
Yeah, okay, it's.
Speaker 1 (02:50):
I didn't know, like I've been out of the mushroom
game for a while, so I didn't realize we had
found some shit that are like proscriptive where they're like, oh,
you want, you want to see little tiny people crawling
up your walls, then take this one. Like, my experience
with mushrooms was that you knew something was going to
happen with your brain, you didn't know what was going
(03:12):
to do.
Speaker 2 (03:13):
So this feels like, uh, this feels like when I
start adding ship to drugs, I think the mushrooms that
I have had either it's not my mother's mushrooms, No,
my mama's mushrooms.
Speaker 4 (03:24):
Those kind of drugs always interest me, like where people
tend to have shared experiences like salvia.
Speaker 1 (03:32):
Or d MT right, DMT like fractals, Right, isn't that m.
Speaker 4 (03:37):
Yeah, those are always really really interesting to me when
people report the same types of things during a drug
trip across cultures.
Speaker 1 (03:46):
Yeah, this is like salvia.
Speaker 4 (03:49):
Like a lot of people report being teleported into like
a forest or some shit, And that's happened to me before.
I'm pretty sure I was a rock of some sort
or a stone.
Speaker 1 (03:59):
That was alba. Yeah, he fored you to a to
a forest and you are just like a part of
the forest.
Speaker 4 (04:06):
Yeah, it was really really interesting, also kind of uncomfortable.
Speaker 1 (04:11):
How do you get home from the forest?
Speaker 2 (04:13):
Yeah, what happened?
Speaker 4 (04:14):
It only twenty minutes, but it feels a lot longer.
Speaker 1 (04:18):
And then DMT, you know, people report the machine elves,
which machine elves, yes, which I did, said that like
that it's a thing.
Speaker 4 (04:29):
And when I did d MT, I definitely saw some
one question mark, some sort of entity that I'm like, okay,
that that must be what they're talking about. So is
this enjoyable d MT, it's any of it? Yeah, this
(04:51):
sounds awful.
Speaker 1 (04:52):
It's not off for something I want to go insane
for fifteen to twenty minutes. I don't know, it's definitely
not awful.
Speaker 4 (04:59):
Like d like, you get to see shape you didn't
know existed, colors you've never seen before.
Speaker 1 (05:06):
It's a little cool, but it's cool. It's very cool.
It's very interesting.
Speaker 2 (05:10):
What if you have anxiety. See, Like, I'm a shrooms head.
I do do shrooms. I do do shrooms. That rooms,
that's where they grow. I do shrooms. But when I
was doing them for a long time, I was doing
them like a little more consistently a few years ago,
and then I had a terrible trip. Yeah, just like
(05:32):
there's one bad trip and like and it was an
anxiety indooced and like those are the worst, and so like,
do you have anxiety on it? I know, we got
to get back to the China's rooms, but like are
these from China? Yeah, we gotta get back to the
China's rooms, but like are these like do you have anxiety?
What if you have anxiety on d m T.
Speaker 4 (05:50):
I wouldn't recommend that if you are ron if anyone's
prone to anxiety to like maybe Tippy too into psychedelic
if you do want to try it, or just leave
it alone, because although she can be wild, I always
had very bad experiences with weed, not not always, I
have like fifty percent of the time.
Speaker 1 (06:11):
I would get real paranoid on weed. But the mushrooms
were always good to me.
Speaker 4 (06:15):
So you know, for instance, my partner she gets anxious
from time to time, and I've started her on microdosing
mushrooms and it's been helping reduce the anxiety. So I
guess it just depends on the dose and set in
the setting. But this mushroom in China, it is particularly
(06:36):
interesting because everyone reports.
Speaker 1 (06:40):
The exact same thing, and it's also not just this
mushroom in China. They found us another culture that has
a similar report of a type of mushroom that if
you eat it and don't cook it well enough. So
this is how it's happening. People aren't doing this on
purpose because it is this one does not sound like
(07:01):
it's super fun.
Speaker 2 (07:03):
The trips.
Speaker 1 (07:05):
The trips it produces are unusually long, commonly lasting one
to three days after an onset of twelve to twenty
four hours, and in some cases even causing hospital stays
of up to a week, and just little people crawling
all over everywhere you can see so in I know,
(07:26):
like you kind of just like, what are they like?
By the ways, this is not a this is not
exclusive to this mushroom. The Liliputian hallucinations is the psychiatric
term for the perception of tiny human beings. I remember
reading about that that's a fairly common hallucination in Oliver
(07:49):
Sachs's book Hallucinations, which I highly recommend people read. It's
not just about drug hallucinations. It's about you know, people
who had strokes, people who you know. Sometimes it's just
like people have a traumatic, like emotionally traumatic thing happened
to them and they.
Speaker 2 (08:07):
Start I unless it was like a hundred Gary Colemans
when he was like a kid.
Speaker 1 (08:14):
Yeah, How charismatic are they? That's the how does it
get into are they? Are they funny? Are they fun
to hang with? Just like running around being like, hey man.
Speaker 4 (08:26):
That's my thing. I don't get when I do regular psychedelics.
I don't get a lot of visuals just in general.
And I can't say I've ever had any true hallucinations.
So I'm very very curious, yes.
Speaker 1 (08:43):
Uh yeah, to do to do these ones and just
see see some little hallucinations. I want to see some
ship that I know is not there. This story brought
to you by Molly Conger's Weird Little Guys on the
podcast about Weird Little Republics. But yeah, another way to
experience weird little guys. We've got plenty of them in
(09:05):
our news stories. But you know, Oliver Sach, speaking about
the fact that these hallucinations are like pretty common the
kind of little little people, said that visions of monsters
one of the most common forms of hallucination a little
a Putian hallucination involves sightings of tiny people. Quote. I
(09:27):
think people probably see leprechauns in Ireland and trolls in Norway.
I suspect that many of these strange creatures have if
not been engendered, been facilitated by hallucination. So kind of
an interesting thing that ties back to our leprechaun icons.
All right, you know, well report back.
Speaker 2 (09:48):
When you do it. When you get these shrooms, I
want to know how you do it. I'll send you
flowers to the hospital.
Speaker 1 (09:52):
I know it doesn't sound fun.
Speaker 2 (09:55):
This sounds terrible.
Speaker 1 (09:56):
Manse longside effects such as delirium and dizziness. That just
sounds The guy who studies them like still hasn't done it.
He's like, I don't know many that sounds terrible. I
have a guy who studies mushroom hallucinations for a living,
and I still haven't done it. Yeah, they found people
(10:21):
having these same hallucinations in Papua New Guinea, China, and like,
the mushrooms don't even look the same. So it might
be similar to psilocybin, which, like you know that that
shows up in mushrooms of different kinds in different places
around the world. And psilocybin actually evolved haar like separately,
(10:43):
completely independently of each other, two versions of psilocybin separately
around the world.
Speaker 2 (10:49):
So it's uh, it's all happening, man and man, what
happened to the good old days when we just shot
up a little crack.
Speaker 1 (10:57):
Now those yeah, you're not just seeing like Heroin. You
become very predictable. That's the thing about crack. Mushrooms are unpredictable.
One time I saw my mother's eyes and a bunch
of like paintings that I was looking at at the museum,
(11:18):
and it was like very fun and beautiful spiritual experience.
And another time I was like, oh, I shouldn't have
this much body hair. My hair freaked me out and
I was just spent three hours. I want it all off. Yeah,
I want it all off. You know they say, eyebrows down,
(11:38):
get rid of those eyebrows. Man, let's go. Let's good.
Speaker 2 (11:41):
It's so funny.
Speaker 1 (11:42):
Oh no, Jack, that's your best feature, my brows. Thanks man, brows.
That's what I've always people would think was my best feature.
It's my eyebrows.
Speaker 2 (11:53):
Got strong jaw line and good browst.
Speaker 1 (11:58):
Go watch the clips on you tube. Yeah, go out
the clips on YouTube. You can see my powerful eyebrows.
And I have to cut once a month or else
they start connecting with my hair. That's how out of
out of control they get. Crazy eyebrows. They went like
up to here.
Speaker 2 (12:19):
They were big dick Ones, Chancellor boys.
Speaker 1 (12:22):
Boys, big Chonky boys. All right, let's take a quick break.
We're going to talk about my eyebrows during the break,
and then we'll come back and talk about other stuff.
We'll be right back and we're back. Top five people
(12:45):
without eyebrows, Go whoopy oldber whoopee, whoopee. That I think
number one. I don't think I can go bet. There's
the guy from a from Barry Brooklyn nine nine. Yeah,
the guy the goth have eyebrows? No, but I think
those are shaved me a goth a god.
Speaker 2 (13:04):
I feel like I've seen her with eyebrows home before, which.
Speaker 1 (13:07):
I feel like she could really rock like no eyebrows.
Andre is that guy's name I think who has no eyebrows?
The Giant, not the Giant.
Speaker 2 (13:18):
Can you imagine if Andre the giants tall ass didn't
have eyebrows?
Speaker 1 (13:24):
All right, let's let's talk about some news. Besides that,
there's a very specific mushroom that you can take and
have a It's almost like Willy Wonka style where it's
like a mushroom that gives you a very specific thing. Anyways,
the White House is proposing changing ice agents too, nice agents.
(13:45):
They're they're going to add an N to the front
of the name ICE to be the National Immigration and
Customs Enforcement. It's just a little a little triggering the libs,
you know, they're just doing a trigger the libs. They
think it's funny. This is started by a conservative influencer,
and Donald Trump was like, we should do it. Do it,
(14:07):
great idea, do it President DJT. He wrote that on
truth Social whilst using a photo like a screencap of
a tweet, because even conservative influencers don't use truth social
because it sucks shit. But it's not that funny of
a joke for an agency that's killed at least forty
(14:28):
six people during the second term Trump. The administration, meanwhile,
is purging immigration judges and hiring new ones who are
like we talked before about how you know he brought
that woman in to prosecute one of his cases like
(14:48):
that he was just like mad at someone and so
he's like, bring this case against them, and she was
I think she was like an attorney who like worked
for an insurance company in Florida who he just like
thought was pretty, and so he brought her in and
she did bad job. So he's like yeah, and she
had to be fired. He's doing that with judge with
(15:09):
immigration judges. One of the new immigration judges, Melissa Isaac,
was a divorce attorney for men only. She said two
types of women. There are good, solid, valuable women who
are assets to men. Then there's a warm wet hole.
(15:29):
That's what. That's the person who.
Speaker 2 (15:33):
You know, she might be no job. She also helped,
that's crazy to say.
Speaker 1 (15:42):
She also helped to defend Alabama pedophile Republican Roy Moore
when he was accused of molesting a fourteen year old.
Gave a speech at a Manisphere conference titled Divorcing Feminism
so great that she'll be hearing asylum case in which
women are fleeing violence, sometimes sexual violence.
Speaker 2 (16:06):
Yeah, yeah, you know the outrage that I don't feel
is concerning exactly. But it's just because like it's always outrage,
so deep in the so deep in the outrage bag
right now. It's wild though, to you know, to be
this type of a pigmy, uh, a warm wet hole
(16:27):
is a wild thing to say. Yeah, and I'm a
man and I'm like, damn, damn respect women more.
Speaker 1 (16:37):
That's too much. Yeah, Like there's one who denied humanitarian
protection to a Serbian immigrant for like criticized the government,
and she said they freely chose to draw unwanted attention
to herself and her family. People who live in glass
houses should not throw stones, essentially saying that an immigrant
who practices freedom of speech gets what's coming to them.
(16:58):
The Serbia and immigrant that they deny, uh was because
they were suffering homophobic threats. That was why they were
asking for asylum. And she was like, he doesn't seem
gay enough, like, so I'm not worried about him. He's
gonna be fine enough. Nice, He's fine.
Speaker 2 (17:17):
Switch is not gay, switch is not is not overly
left and right?
Speaker 1 (17:21):
That's right? Who is this person?
Speaker 2 (17:25):
This person is insane? Is this a different person? This
is a new judge, Carrie Holiday, new judge, new judge,
the true judge just dropped.
Speaker 1 (17:37):
Man. Two thirds of their new judicial hires have no
immigration law experience whatsoever.
Speaker 2 (17:44):
Because because if you did, then you would actually uh deem.
The things that Ice is doing is as illegal because
by the law it is illegal.
Speaker 1 (17:55):
Nice. I believe, I believe you meant the nice agents.
Speaker 2 (17:59):
I'm so sorry. I'm so sorry the nice agents.
Speaker 1 (18:02):
Lindsay Grant so As we talked about that, there was
a lot there were a lot of rumors that, uh,
the attack on the White House Correspondence Center was a
false flag attack, attack to try and justify the ballroom
being built by the White House. And while that seems
like the dumbest, like lowest stakes false flag like Putin
(18:26):
did it false flag attacks where he like bombed a
bunch of apartment buildings, but like he used that to
stay in power and like fix the elections. He didn't
do it to like fucking get get a project approved.
But I don't think that's what happened. And yet everything
they're doing is so it's all they're talking about.
Speaker 2 (18:48):
They're just like, apparently the shooter is and it wasn't
didn't even shoot not in did you see there?
Speaker 1 (18:53):
So they're they're claiming that he shot once.
Speaker 2 (18:56):
Okay, yeah, of course, right, and yeah, yes.
Speaker 1 (19:04):
That whole like So the other thing that's come out
is that the White House Correspondence Center was security was
lower than usual. The event was not given quote National
Special Security Event status, meaning they didn't get the full
amount of resources possible for security, despite the fact they
had basically every top official in Trump's cabinet there. They
(19:27):
had the entire So if someone had actually managed to
take out that ballroom, it would have left Chuck grass
Lea of Iowa in charge of the country. That's where
we would have been if they if that had been
a successful attack. The investigation, as you mentioned, charge, I
(19:52):
don't know that a lot of people don't know the
line of.
Speaker 2 (19:55):
People right after Chuck.
Speaker 1 (20:02):
The investigation, as you mentioned, is starting to be a
little bit suspicious. Todd Blinch says, finding evidence is quote
not an exact science end quote. Sometimes you find the
bullet and sometimes it just disappears. Okay, sure, So, like
everybody lower your expectations.
Speaker 2 (20:22):
I wonder do people who are still MAGA fans and
I know the answer to it. I mean, here's the thing.
Whenever anybody who is not a MAGA fan asks this question,
we know the answer, and the answer is they love
racism too much and that's why they are MAGA fans.
But if let's take that off the table for four
(20:42):
of them, do those four MAGA fans who aren't overtly
racist and that's what they really care about when they
hear shit like this, and don't think this is the
most incompetent shit that I've ever heard like in my life,
and this is supposed to be who I think is
the best swamp.
Speaker 1 (21:03):
They always have that as their go to where they're like,
he's being failed by the swamp. They don't. They want
him dead. So that's probably.
Speaker 2 (21:10):
Why he he's trying to he's trying to drain the
swamp he's he's working on.
Speaker 1 (21:19):
But uh, yes, to your point. One of the reasons
that suddenly this bullet became so hard to find, I'm
assuming they're talking about the bullet was shot by the
attempted assassin. The assailant might be because it wasn't fired. Uh.
Sky News is reporting that the like some people now
(21:44):
believe that the Secret Service agent who was shot was
shot either by himself or another Secret Service agent, which
anybody who's familiar with my JFK assassination conspiracy theory that
the cover up was because he had the second shot
that blew his head clean off was actually fired from
(22:07):
a Secret Service agent on accidents right behind him. Yeah.
Speaker 4 (22:11):
Right, So you got to remember recently Joe Biden's security
shot himself while looking for a phone in a car,
remembering that, right, Yeah, they love to do that.
Speaker 2 (22:23):
That's because Joe Biden security was too busy trying not
to get a bit by them dogs.
Speaker 1 (22:29):
Why he shot himself just to like go on leave.
So he attacked by these fucking vicious dogs. But yeah, anyway,
and friendly fire is like much more common than anybody admits.
It's almost like a system where like shooting at people
(22:54):
is not a good system. Yeah, it might be bad.
National security also take very seriously because we recently learned
that Tucker Carlson said, someone texted me we're going about
the Iran war. So they're texting Iran war plans to
Tucker Carlson's cell phone. Just have to assume King Charles
(23:16):
is feeling safe for his visit.
Speaker 2 (23:19):
Of course he is. Of course he is, like these
crazy motherfucker's going to kill me fifteen days earlier and
then I'm gonna die, And that is god.
Speaker 1 (23:29):
That is a good King Charles impression. By the way,
these motherfuckers, these motherfuckers.
Speaker 2 (23:37):
Oh yeah, man, I forgot he was here. I saw
a tweet of someone speaking of King Charles who said,
oh would you look at this, a king here with
a motorcade and nobody's protesting so much for the no kings.
(23:59):
Oh my and I'm like Jesus Christ, you guys are
just different intelligence.
Speaker 1 (24:07):
We don't like Kings. Also, he doesn't have any power.
Ours has all the power in the world. It's a
little different, a little different. But yeah, they're uh wow,
So I don't I don't see you complaining right now.
Speaker 2 (24:24):
So you're complain about Kings now, must just be TDS.
Speaker 1 (24:29):
Interesting. I do suffer from TDS, but you know it's
not my funt.
Speaker 2 (24:34):
John Fetterman has convinced me that we are all of us,
all the Democrats, and.
Speaker 1 (24:39):
John Fetterman is the one who I go to for
mental health advice. He seems like he's got his ship together.
He can't even drive a car. Jd vance mentor Peter Teal,
we got we got a couple. So we've got leak
recordings from a private lecture by Peter Teal. We've talked
about this that his he's doing this lecture all over
(25:02):
the place about the Antichrist. In this lecture, he suggests
that the pope should be ignored, that the Pope is
in fact an instrument of the Antichrist.
Speaker 2 (25:15):
I've been saying that for years.
Speaker 1 (25:16):
He revealed you have been up and down. That guy's
the instrument of the Antichrist. He also revealed he advised
Jadvans to ignore the Pope on matters of morality and
that Jadvans should pray for the Pope. It's just like
it is. It's the hot dog sketch for like it's
(25:38):
it couldn't be more the Tim Robinson and a hot
dog soup, being like, we're all looking for who did this,
We're all trying to find out who the Antichrist is.
Me a person who when asked like would you rather
have like a I go forward or humanity be wiped out?
I like I just like started sweating profusely, like couldn't
(26:01):
answer the question. Come in, come, listen to me. Peter
Teal tell you who the anti Christ is? Uh, who's
going to bring about the fall of humanity? Anyways, we
also have leaked emails, so we got a leaked recording
from his lecture. We also got leaked emails just showing
what his relationship was like with Epstein. Uh. And Epstein
(26:22):
called Teal a great friend and told Larry Summers, Peter
Teale autistic, no global sense to what Peter TiAl Peter
t because Epstein was a great uh, just one of
the great writers. That's really a wordsmith word smith.
Speaker 2 (26:42):
Yes, was he trying to say artistic or did he
mean autistic?
Speaker 1 (26:46):
No, he autistic.
Speaker 2 (26:47):
He meant autistic. Is me tale autistic? Is that a es?
Speaker 1 (26:52):
Yeah? I don't want to No, I don't want to
cast dispersions on autistic people like that's yeah, Yeah.
Speaker 2 (27:01):
Of course I don't want to.
Speaker 1 (27:03):
I don't think that's his problem, Chack. That's why we
have Brian here.
Speaker 2 (27:10):
Yeah, he's currently on China's rooms.
Speaker 1 (27:13):
Yeah. He made various efforts. Epstein made various efforts on
behalf of Teal to like introduce him. He emailed Teal
in twenty fifteen, what types of twenty fifteen? Again was
years after he's like out of prison for child sex trafficking.
What types of people would you find most appetizing? Europe, Mideast,
(27:36):
Russian politics, science, wu? Teal responded, I don't know what
WU was. Teal responded, kind of obsessed with politics this year.
Russian European always interesting. And then Epstein connected him with
like a Russian official and spy academy graduate who complimented
teals insight into the Russian economy. So it's like it's
just that's how It's just like billionaires get an enough
(28:00):
money and then you become part of this like shadowy
cabal of people who like meet each other and figure
out ways to pull the strings on ship behind the scenes.
It's like exactly as bad as it seems, but like
kind of worse, Like as bad as like a melodramatic
eighties spy movie would make you think it is, but worse. Yeah,
(28:23):
the bad guys are as bad as you could possibly imagine.
Speaker 2 (28:27):
I would I would strongly push back on Russians being appetizing.
I feel like they wouldn't be appetizing at all. You
don't want to Russian now European I could, but a
Russian I feel like, you know, I think I think
a mid East. I think mid East would be a
more appetizing, tastes better, more seasoning.
Speaker 1 (28:47):
Are you talking about the people? Are you talking about
their food, not the people? That's what I'm thinking.
Speaker 2 (28:54):
Yeah, what types of people would you find most appetizing?
You know, you're mid East? Russian? Politics, science woo, you know,
and appetizing.
Speaker 1 (29:02):
Definitely not eating politics people, No, they're.
Speaker 2 (29:06):
Gonna be might be good.
Speaker 1 (29:08):
