(00:48):

(01:14):
This is Strange Thing with Joshua Warren. I am Joshua
FEE Warren, and each week on this show, I'll be
bringing you brand new mind blowing content, news exercises, and
weird experiments you can do at home, and a lot more.
(01:38):
On this edition of the program, it's Little Person time again.
That's right. I am recording this in March of twenty
twenty three, so I've decided to get an early jump
on celebrating Saint Patrick's day up the Airy Mountain, down
(01:59):
the Rushy Glynn, we dare not go a hunting for
fear of little men, So of course I'm talking about
lepre cons and the like. And I figure, you know,
it's better to perhaps have you listen to this a
little early rather than write on Saint Patrick, so you'll
have some time to enjoy the content. And I tell
(02:23):
you what, I'm also going to do something on this
show that I don't think I've ever done before. I
am going to play a complete song for you. And
this is an original by u f O Phil. And
if you listen to Coast to Coast am with George Nori,
(02:46):
you will know that he is a staple of the show.
He has a very distinctive voice. He's a great musician
and singer. And he composed this song that George has played,
oh gosh, I don't know hundreds of times. I think
he usually plays it at the end of maybe like
Friday Nights, and it's it's just called I'm listening to
(03:07):
Coast to Coast and so UFO philm has this song
that I'm recently discovered called Larry the lunar lepre con
so I will be playing that for you on the show,
with his permission. And so that's just a special fun thing.
Another thing I'm gonna do right up front here is
something else that I've never done on a show. According
(03:30):
to my DNA analysis, a good chunk of my DNA
is Irish, also Scottish. So I decided I'm going to
start off the show here with a shot of Irish whiskey. Yeah,
And you know what, And if you have your favorite
(03:53):
beverage nearby, go ahead and prepare it. We'll do a
toast together. How about that? And so I just I
don't drink liquor that much anymore. I used to when
I was younger, growing up in Asheville, but now that
I'm getting a little older, I find that often if
I drink liquor, I may not feel too great the
next day. But I think I can handle a shot
of this. I just grabbed a bottle off of my
(04:16):
bar here at home, and I'm in my home studio.
I'm not going anywhere, so I can do this. I
just might sound a little bit goofy the rest of
the show, But what's new there? What do we have here.
This is cast matured kilbrin Irish whiskey, nice green bottle.
It's got a red foil sill on it. So I'm
(04:37):
gonna go ahead and pop this baby open. Oh yeah,
and I got my special shot glass here. I'm not
going to go into that, but maybe someday I'll tell
you about my special shot glass, and maybe I'll even
sell you one so you can drink whiskey like me.
All right, So I'm gonna pour pour my shot of
(04:59):
Irish whisky ye to warm up for the show. And
it is cold here, even though you know I'm in
Las Vegas, but you'd be surprised how how chilly it
gets here in Vegas. Okay, there's my one shot and uh, okay,
if you're ready, here we go. Here is uh one
of the old Irish toasts I remember as you slide
(05:19):
down the banister of life. May the splinters always point
the right way. Ah. WHOA smooth and toasty yeah, certainly powerful.
It's got that little Irish whiskey burn at the end.
(05:41):
All right, I think I'm loosened up now. I'm ready
to do a Saint Patrick's show, and I may as
well start by doing something stupid and illogical. I think
I'm gonna debut a new segment on this show, and
it's called and now I'm going to make my wife mad?
(06:03):
Do you think? What do you think? Is that a
good idea? Is that a segment just to make my
wife mad? You can see that shot very quickly went
into my bloodstream. So you know, hopefully she won't listen
to this show. I just thought something happened recently that
I thought was kind of funny. She's probably not gonna
like the fact that I'm bringing this up on the show.
(06:25):
But here we go. So I don't do a lot
of TV filming anymore. I just don't have the time
for it. I've told you that before. But I did
agree to do a project recently out filming in the
desert here. Of course, in Las Vegas. Las Vegas is
as a city, is an island in the middle of
(06:46):
a desert. We's surrounded by miles and miles and miles
of just destolate land. That's why you have all the
military testing and stuff out here. So I can't tell
you the details. But this guy who's a producer in
La he's a friend of mine. He's working on this project,
and it's you know, it has to do with UFOs.
(07:08):
That's as much as I'll tell you. And so he
came out here to film with me recently, and so
um Lauren and I got into our suv it's a
Toyota for Runner, which we've had for a long time,
and we drove way out into the desert to meet
(07:30):
with this small crew. And so after I finished my
filming part, we set our farewells and then we got
back into our Forerunner and the battery was dead. And
so at first I was like, well, that's just kind
(07:56):
of weird because the battery is not that old, but
this is a harsh climate, and I go, well, no probablimo.
I've got our super rugged survival box that I always
keep in the car. I have this box, you know.
I I am enough of a prepper type that I've
(08:17):
got a Ham radio in there because I have a
Ham radio license. I have got a little battery that
you can use to jump start your car if there's
not another car around. I've got all kinds of you know,
like some block supplies and survival blankets and first aid
kits and walkie talk I mean, I got all this
(08:39):
stuff and of course there's jumper cables in there. So
I was like, we're gonna be fine, no sweat. I
had prepared for everything out in this harsh desert environment.
But it turns out there was one thing I had
not prepared for. My beautiful wife Lauren took the kit
(09:01):
out of the car. Oops. I did not prepare for that.
And so yeah, and of course I'm like, you too,
we have an emergency kit. That is the one thing
that I cannot compensate for is the kit not being
(09:21):
of the car. This is how reality works, isn't it.
And she goes, well, it's your fault. I was like,
how is that my fault? And she said that she
went to the grocery store and bought a bunch of
groceries that I had wanted, and so she took it
out of the car to make room. And I'm like, well,
but you could have put it back in. Look, you
(09:42):
know that you can't win these kinds of arguments, guys.
So here I was. I was like, all right, surely
this film crew and their van they probably have some
jumper cables. Nope, they didn't have jumper cables. As a
matter of fact, their shoot had almost been cursed. They'd
had a lot of different problems along the way, which
I won't get into. Running. So here we are stranded
(10:02):
in the desert without jumper cables, with my super duper
survival box back at my house. But I must say
that the person who saved the day was mister Jason
Sarachi because he also was part of the shoot that day,
and we were able to use his truck to drive
(10:23):
to wherever we could finally find some jumper cables. Anyway,
we got it solved. But it was kind of funny
though that here we were in an area where a
lot of strange phenomena had been occurring, a lot of
big electrical signals, and you know, the battery gets get zepped.
I don't know that it seems like and you may
(10:45):
not realize this. If you start working on a paranormally
oriented show, and I mean UFO's ghosts, psychic phenomena, Cryptod's,
any of that stuff, then often there are things that
will work against you. There are obstacles that you face.
So everything turned out well, and it was a great
lesson learned to your survival kit doesn't do any good
(11:07):
for you unless you have it with you. All right,
sorry about that, Lauren, But okay, now let's get ready
to talk about Saint Patrick's Day and the little people,
because you know my friend Jim Marris, he used to say,
a little green man runs across the room at a
party and one person says, look an alien, Another person says,
(11:31):
look a leprechron another person says, look a demon. Well,
what are these things? We've seen them all throughout history
from different cultural points of view, but we interpret these
beings in different ways. Coming up on our first break,
and you may or may not know that I have
(11:54):
this brand new, one last chance item out there for you.
Some of you were able to get a Buddha Stone
a long time ago with a purple plate kit that
was early on, and those are gone. Then some of
you are lucky enough to get the Buddha Stone wand
now those are gone. But what you can get now,
(12:16):
this is my last time offering this, the Buddha Stone
money magnet kit. Go right now to vi Buddha Stone

to Strange Things on the iHeartRadio and Coast to Coast
AM Paranormal Podcast Network, and I will be right back.
(13:43):
Welcome back to Strange Things on the iHeartRadio and Coast
to Coast AM Paranormal Podcast Network. I'm your host, the
Wizard of Weird, Joshua Pee Warren, beaming into your wormhole
brain from my studio and Sina City, Las Vegas, Nevada,
where every day is golden and every night is silver. Yes,
(14:08):
as we prepare for the Saint Patty's celebratory mood, get
ready to dance a jig because here it is from
UFO Phil a song that I presume I will be
listening to at least once a year from here on out.
This is Larry the lunar leprechn Last year at the
(14:39):
Saint Patrick's Dash. I was down at the pub eating
bangers and nash. A beta guy. He was short, green
and fat, with a big green antenna sticking out of
his hat. He looked kind of Irish except for his
mister spot ears. He said, my name is Larry. I
came from the Moon to by beer. May read the
(15:04):
lunar Lefrica one point again his head. Then he's gone.
He visits the planet every year Earth. This is the
only place that has good sheer and Larry the Labrica
knows how to have a good time, but he never
drinks so much that he won't be able to fly.
(15:30):
And that night Larry started to talk about how the
Moon has a shortage of barley and hops. They've got
clovers and potatoes to spare. They serve shamrocks shakes, but
no beer. It's not fair. He looked like a spaceman
except for his rainbow tattoo. He said, for me a guinness,
(15:50):
because they don't have this on the moon. Marry the
lunar Lefrica. One point again his head. Then he's gone.
He visits the planet every year because Earth is the
only place that has good beer, and Larry the Labrica
knows how to have a good time, but he never
(16:15):
drinks so much that he won't be able to fly.
Larry the Lunar Labrica one point of gain his head,
then he's gone. He's not an ardinary guy. A rainbow
apart a goal. The ship bad fly and Larry the
Labrica knows how to have a good time, but he
(16:40):
never drinks so much that he won't be able to fly.
And each year on Saint Patrick's Day, he'll be down
at the pub, sitting in the same place, a quick
beer and some bangers to go a chat with some humans,
then time to fly home. He looked kind of irish,
(17:01):
except for his mister spot ears he drinks. He said,
my name is Larry. I came from the Moon to
by bear Larry the Lunar Leprica one pint aginnis and
then he's gone. He visits the planet every year. The
(17:22):
Earth is the only place that serves dream beer can
be the Lunar Laprica one point a ginnis and then
he's gone. And Larry the Aprica knows how to have
a good time that he never drinks so much that
he won't be able to never drink so much that
(17:43):
he won't be able to never drink so much that
he won't be able to fly. Ah. Yes, Larry the
lunar lepricaon how can you feel good when you listen
to that? Especially after a shot of Irish whiskey? Thank you,
(18:07):
UFO Phil for letting us all enjoy your original creation there.
And by the way, if you go to his website
ufo Phil dot com, that's Phil spelled Phil ufo fil
dot com, it's very interesting. It says he's President of Earth,
Ambassador to the Aliens, a really nice guy. But listen
(18:30):
to this. It says UFO Phil feature film in development,
and if you are interested in becoming involved with the
UFO Phil feature film, he has an email address right there,
and I'm sure he would be happy to hear from you.
And I can't wait to see what he's gonna come
(18:52):
up with. So go check that out at ufo pil
dot com. All right, well, hopefully if you're in the
mood by now, I don't know what else I can
do for you. And now, look, I don't want this
show to be redundant because I have had a lot
of close friends tell me about having personal encounters with
(19:15):
little people. And I have talked about all those stories before,
so I'm not going to repeat them. If you want
to hear those stories, go back, go way back and
listen to episode twenty three of this Strange Things podcast
and it's called are the Little People Real? Okay? Episode
twenty three. And also keep in mind that if you
(19:37):
just want to see a whole list of all the
Strange Things shows and my descriptions of them, because sometimes
my description in some cases is a little different than
the description that's posted with the podcast, just go to
Strange Things show dot com Strange Things Show dot com
and you'll see the list of every single episode and
(19:58):
what I think best is scribes that episode. So go
back and listen to twenty three, episode twenty three if
you really want to hear about people who have encountered
them face to face and some theories about what they
may be. But let's talk for now though, a little
bit about what Saint Patrick's Day is. And I should
also mention that I know people of Irish descent, especially
(20:24):
some who literally were born and raised in Ireland, who
don't really like Saint Patrick's Day because they don't agree
with the influence that Christianity had when it moved into
Ireland all those centuries ago, So you know, you just
have to also keep that in mind. I guess it's
worth mentioning. But okay, here's what Wikipedia says. Saint Patrick's
(20:47):
Day or the Feast of Saint Patrick, the Day of
the Festival of Patrick, is a cultural and religious celebration
held on the seventeenth of March, which is the traditional
death date of Saint Patrick. They believe he was born
in three eighty five and died around four sixty one,
(21:07):
and he has considered the foremost patron saint of Ireland.
I'm going to talk a little bit more about who
he was in a minute. There's you know, the facts
are unclear, but it looks like that he he died
when he was, you know, an older fellow in thee
in his seventies or something. If you see some pictures
of him, they show him looking a lot like Santa
Claus with a long white beard. So it says here
(21:30):
Saint Patrick's Day was made an official Christian feast day
in the early seventeenth century and is observed by the
Catholic Church, the Anglican Communion, the Eastern Orthodox, the Lutheran Church.
Actually I'm not not going to name everything, but it
says celebrations generally involve public parades and festivals, the wearing
of green attire and or shamrocks. And it says historically
(21:57):
restrictions on eating and drinking alcohol all were lifted for
the day, which encouraged people to consume. It's a public
holiday in the Republic of Ireland, Northern Ireland, Canadian province
of Newfoundland and Labrador, widely celebrated in the US, Canada, Argentina, UK, etc. Etc.
(22:23):
And so here is what I can recall about, you know,
the legend of Saint Patrick. Again, this was so long ago.
A lot of it's very unclear, but so I believe
he was Traditionally they say he was born somewhere in
the British Isles, and somehow, when he was like sixteen
(22:46):
years old, he ended up being captured and becoming a
slave to Irish pirates. You don't think so much about
that concept, do you, Yeah, But so he was enslaved
by Irish pirates for years until he finally escaped, and
(23:06):
then of course he became affiliated with the church and
rose through the ranks, so to speak. And then decided
to go back to Ireland and help the people there,
which is not might sound kind of ironic, and he
would use the shamrock to describe the Holy Trinity because
you know, shamrocks usually have just three leaves there. And
(23:30):
of course, being the Emerald, isle Green was always a
big player. And he is also credited with supposedly removing
all the snakes from Ireland. You know, there's all this
drama about him getting up there and driving the snakes out,
but most people say, like, there's pretty good evidence that
(23:53):
there have never even been snakes in Ireland. So kind
of reminds you of the old joke like this guy
killed all the lions in Las Vegas and you say
there are no lions in Las Vegas, and it's like, well, exactly,
you know that kind of thing, even though actually there
are lions in Las Vegas. There's a whole lion habitat here.
Bad example anyway, So but yeah, you know, he apparently
(24:17):
was beloved enough for this holiday to surround his legend,
and they nobody seems to know exactly how he died,
but it just says that he died peacefully of natural
causes and so that's what Saint Patrick's stay is about.
And of course the little people, they have been a
(24:38):
part of that culture going way back, you know, pre
Christian So maybe we'll talk a little bit about that
when we come back. But I also realized I'm getting
behind on some pretty interesting listener emails, and so I'm
gonna read some of those to you. And in fact,
there's one that stands out in my mind from somebody
(25:01):
who says, I think I have been experiencing astral visitors
that are messing with me. So we're not talking about
ghosts of dead people. We're talking about living people who
are astrally projecting to this guy's house. He thinks that
might be possible, and he says, how do I tell
the difference. I'm Joshua Pee Warren. You're listening to Strange
(25:24):
Things on the iHeartRadio and Coast to Coast. I am
parin normal podcast network, and I will be right back
after these important messages. Welcome back to Strange Things. I'm
(26:11):
the iHeartRadio and Ghost to Coast. I am para normal
podcast network. I'm your host, Joshua Pete Warren. And this
is the show where the unusual becomes usual. Ozia tato
Zoom may post a video of yourself saying that word
(26:32):
on social media and just see what reaction you get.
Don't give an explanation. I think if you can remember that,
you're strengthening your brain. Ozia tato Zoom may. All right,
let's see what the story is behind lepre cons. And
once again, if you listen to episode twenty three of
(26:54):
this show called Are the Little People Real, you're gonna
get it deeper understanding. But okay, here's just you know,
since we're talking about it. Wikipedia, a LEPrecon is a
diminutive supernatural being an Irish folklore, classed by some as
a type of solitary fairy. They are usually depicted as
(27:16):
little bearded men wearing a coat and hat who partake
and mischief, and later times they have been depicted as
shoemakers who have hidden a pot of gold at the
end of the rainbow. LEPrecon like creatures rarely appear in
Irish mythology and only became prominent in later folklore. Have
you ever seen Darbio Gill and The Little People? Boy,
(27:38):
that's a great movie, and you know that, I guess
that's one of the cool things about the LEPrecon concept
is that we're going back to making wishes. You know,
the LEPrecon can grant you a wish. But unfortunately, this
whole idea of a LEPrecon granting a wish has taken
(27:58):
on kind of a sinister on text because you've got
you've got to have drama and stories and so usually,
like the LEPrecon, wish comes at a price that is unexpected.
So it's it reminds you of like the Monkeys Paul
short story, where be careful what you wish for. You
might get it, but it's going to happen in a
(28:20):
way that you're not gonna like, you're gonna have to
sacrifice something else that you're not even thinking about. It's
a surprise, and that has scared a lot of people
away from the whole manifestation and wish making practice. But
in reality, you do not generally have to worry about
(28:40):
that sort of thing because you are only capable of
receiving what you put out when you are making up
your desire to manifest something on your own. So I mean,
I guess if a little man pops up and asks
you that, well, maybe that maybe that does have a catch,
but that doesn't actually happen when you're actually manifesting things.
(29:03):
You are putting out the projection for what you want,
and if you only put out positivity, then only positivity
can come back. So don't even worry about that. But
let's get onto the name LEPrecon. This is actually a
lot trickier than I thought it was going to be.
The etymology they say it's they think this word is
(29:24):
descended from the old Irish lucker pond or luprecon. It's like, okay,
and then they give you different versions and it's like, okay,
Well what does all that mean? And apparently it's kind
of unclear. They say the word may have been coined
as a compound of the roots lagu and corp, which
are Latin for small and body. Okay, And then it
(29:49):
says that folk etymology derives the word from lafe, which
means half and brogue because of the frequent betrayal of
the LEPrecon is working on a single shoe. So I
don't know. I guess nobody really knows for sure. But
(30:10):
they say the LEPrecon is said to be a solitary
creature whose principal occupation is making and cobbling shoes and
who enjoys practical jokes. It says the LEPrecon is considered
to be not a professional cobbler, but frequently seen mending
his own shoes as he runs about so much he
(30:30):
wears them out with great frequency. And let's see, it
says this is the perfect opportunity to capture a LEPrecon
when he's working on his shoes, and then refusing to
release him until the LEPrecon gives the captor supernatural wealth. Okay,
(30:51):
so you know, if you're interested in leprecns, you can
read more about that on your own. But I just
think it's always interesting to look where these traditions come from.
All right, now, let's get into some emails. Let's see
what you are thinking. This comes to me from Andrew.
(31:18):
I'm not sure where he is located, so I'm just
gonna it's kind of a lengthy email, so let me
just sort of I'm just gonna read it best I
can as he wrote it. He says, is there a
way one can detect astral projectors like using an EMF
(31:40):
meter to find paranormal activity in the other life? He
goes on to say, I have been experiencing some weird
phenomena regarding spiritual activity and oppression, but multiple times they
have claimed to be astral projecting, which I cannot confirm.
(32:01):
Would you know of any method to figure out if
they are astral projectors, telepaths messing with me, which is
ethereal beings or ghosts of the dearly departed? He says,
I've been trying to nail it down, but I'm just
honestly distracted by some of their weird threats and judgmental attitudes.
(32:22):
And then he gives some details. He says, at one point,
I found myself in the middle of a park, and
he tells where it is, but I'm not going to
repeat that, and he says I was on a little island.
I guess they have a pond there, And he says,
basically calling whatever gods or goddesses or whatever would give
me clarification. And I was doing this because these beings
(32:46):
were claiming to be humbling me while mentally torturing me.
So he says, I started messing with them back. It's
a whole bizarre type of communication I've never heard of before,
being you, But I digress. So here I am on
this little island when the wind kicks up and in
a three hundred and sixty degree fashion all around me,
(33:08):
both inside and outside my head, as if I were
in the middle of a surround sound system. I hear
this adult the female voice say will you go to
war with me? And then something along the lines of
I'm Lilith, and he says, anyway, there's a bunch whole
(33:28):
more surprise occurrences, as if they're intentionally trying to mess
with my head. But I am a fool me once
kind of person. So he says, if you have any
knowledge on this or beings and other planes of existence,
please let me know, all right. So, I mean, this
is a weird email, right, What do you do with
an email like this? So I just kind of try
(33:51):
to break it down the best I could, And I said, well, look, Andrew,
in my opinion, as an investigator who measures these things
best I can, there is no way to distinguish between
astral projectors and other types of interactive spiritual beings by
(34:14):
using detection equipment alone. It comes down to an interpretation
of entity behavior and psychology. So, in other words, it
is my belief that, based on the evidence I've collected,
whenever something takes on a non physical form, whether that
(34:35):
be something we consider ghostly or some person who's projecting astrally,
essentially a part of them, a spiritual representation of them
is materializing somewhat in the physical world and interacting with you,
(34:56):
and that process it still creates the same kind of
changes with electrostatic fields and electromagnetic anomalies. And so therefore
I don't think that you can just use our current
level of detection equipment to differentiate. But that's why I went,
I'll just say, so you have to look at their behavior,
which is why that you know, most ghosts are non interactive,
(35:20):
and they're redundant, and they are predictable, and you can
see that this is almost like a recording in the
environment that keeps replaying itself. But in other cases, you
have a being that seems like it's interactive, which might
be a disembodied spirit, but it's not speaking to you,
(35:43):
uh in a way as if it's coming to attack
you or something. It might be the spirit of a
deceased love one. So if you have these like strangers
that are popping up in a spiritual form and they
are saying things that are disturbing you. Well, then it
could be somebody who's astrally projecting I guess. I mean,
(36:04):
that's pretty darn rare. Or you know, it's more likely
some kind of a thing that would be classified as demonic,
like some kind of being from another realm that's coming
and messing with you. But on the other hand, you
know what, you always if you start having these experiences,
I think you should go see a physician and make
(36:27):
sure that you don't have a mental illness as well.
You know, that's just part of the process. Have that
checked out, you know. But when it comes to like
figuring out a behavioral question, I always tell people email
my friend Angela Moore and just tell her what's going on.
She might be able to help you sort through how
(36:48):
to interpret the behavior of these things if you have
something really coming through. And her email address is Angela
Vision at yahoo dot com A N G E, L
A V SI and Angela Vision at yahoo dot com.
All right, so that's how I answered that question. Maybe
that's of interest to some of you. Next, I have
(37:09):
an email from Celeste and she has a question about wands,
and she said, first of all, the Buddha wand is gorgeous.
I love it, and it was beautifully wrapped. But then
she talks about another type of wand, and she says,
(37:30):
how do I tell the difference between these ones and
how to use them? Do they do the same thing?
This is a question. I get a lot from people
who have once and so when we come back, I'll
tell you about that. And then also some news scientists
have built a tractor beam. I'm Joshua pe Warren. You're
listening to Strange Things on the iHeartRadio and Coast to
(37:53):
Coast am per normal podcast Network. I'll be right back.
(38:33):
Welcome back to the final segment of this edition of
Strange Things on the iHeartRadio and Coast to Coast to
M Parinormal Podcast Network. I'm your host, Joshua pe Warren,
and Celeste emailed me and said, Okay, there it is.
(38:57):
She says, first of all, the Buddha wand is gorgeous. Now,
of course you can't. I don't think I think those
are sold out. I'm not one hundred percent sure, but
she says, I love it. Also, I have the wand
that has the magnets on the bottom with the quartz
crystal on top. She is talking about the forces of
nature wand I'm pretty sure we have some of those
(39:19):
still remaining if you go to the Curiosity Shop at
Joshua Peewarren dot com. And she said, can you explain
the difference in the wands or do they do the
same things? Thank you in advance. And I get these
questions from time to time about you know, different products
and different versions of things, and so I figured out,
go ahead and read you what I sent her. I said,
(39:42):
High Celeste, both of these wands are intended to help
you manifest whatever you like. I just experiment with different
wand designs for different things. One day, I'm in the
mood for pizza for dinner, the next day grilled fish, etc.
So pick whichever one draws you in for a particular wish.
(40:03):
It's different for everyone and every wish, and that's the truth.
And she said, thank you so much, God bless you.
I also received this message from a gentleman named David
who lives I believe, in Missouri, and he sent me
(40:25):
a couple of pictures and he said, I have been
using the Buddha stone and the Tesla plate the last
several months with much success. And his two pictures are
cash outs from the casino he goes to and you
know what I mean, Like you cash out and they
(40:47):
give you a little ticket that you go and you
take to the machine to get your actual cash or
to the cage where the cashier is. One of the
tickets that he has here in this picture cashed out
one thousand, six hundred and fifty three dollars and the
other one cashed out two thousand, one hundred and seventy
(41:07):
three dollars. He's doing pretty darn well. As a matter
of fact, both of those are enough money that he
would have had to fill out a an IRS tax
form for hitting money like that. So he says, the
Buddha Stone and the Tesla player, keep that in mind
when you go to the Buddha Stone dot com and
(41:29):
again Buddha is spelled Buddha like bood Ha the Buddha
Stone dot com. Thank you for that, David, And hey, congratulations, man,
you know you've I bet your life is now easier
in some ways, huh. I have another really really interesting
(41:52):
email that I read, and I thought, you know what,
this is a subject that is interesting enough I turn
it into like a main subject for a whole show.
So I'm going to save that one for next time,
but I do want to get this in here. From
Popular Mechanics dot com. This just recently was published, says
(42:12):
scientists actually did it. They built a real working tractor beam.
You know how in the sci fi movies and TV shows,
suddenly a tractor beam kicks on. I know they did
this in Star Wars and a ship gets caught in
the beam and it can't move and it gets pulled in,
(42:35):
and it says here. Tractor beams have long been a
staple of sci fi, but you might not know they've
also existed in the real world, all be it at
a very small skill. Microscopic tractor beams, better known as
optical tweezers, can pull atoms and nanoparticles for use in
(42:57):
medicine and research. But we've ever been able to actually
see this happen. Well now we can, and a new
study published in the journal Optic Express, Chinese scientists created
the first tractor beam strong enough to manipulate macroscopic objects.
(43:17):
That means things you can actually see with a naked eye.
That's how large these objects are. They don't say exactly
how big they are, but you know, being able to
see them with the naked eye. That's huge in terms
of like quantum stuff. It says, yes, it was done
in a highly controlled lab manipulating a specific type of
(43:38):
graphene composite. But it says they used they used a
laser to move an object. And the scientist right quote,
with our new approach, the light pulling force has a
much larger amplitude. In fact, it is more than three
orders of magnitudes larger than the light pressure used to
drive a solar cell, which is the momentum of photons
(44:01):
to exert a small pushing force. And so they say
in the experiments, a torsional pendulum device presented the laser
pulling phenomenon. So basically they created some kind of a
pendulum and they're hitting this thing with a laser, and uh,
you know they can they can suck it toward them.
And so that's what these shiny scientists have done. And
(44:24):
they say that this could Whether or not this could
work so well on big stuff here on Earth is
yet to be seen. But actor at tractor beam like
this could definitely manipulate vehicles and aircraft in space or
somewhere like Mars. So interesting, huh. Popular Mechanics dot Com
(44:44):
see sci Fi Come into life, Come into life? Okay
in the and the final minutes of this podcast. Uh,
sometimes I have this segment that I like to call
mental Manna, where I just share with you something that
I find interesting that I've been thinking about. And the
(45:06):
other day I bought a periscope for a project. It's like,
you know, one foot long, and when you look through
this periscope, I mean you could lift it up above
a fence or some other object and spy, you know,
hunters use them to stay hidden while they're looking for
their game. And what's funny is that when you look
(45:27):
through the lower end of the periscope, the mirror that
you're looking at is only a couple inches from your eyes. Now,
I am near sighted, so I wear glasses, and that
means near sighted means I can see stuff that's up close,
but I can't see stuff clearly that's far away. So
when you're looking through the periscope, the mirror is actually
(45:50):
close to your eyes. So do you think I have
to wear glasses to look at the mirror on the
periscope or not think about that for a minute. I'm
supposed to be able to see stuff that's close to me.
So can I look at the mirror that's only a
couple inches away and see clearly? Or do I still
(46:12):
need my glasses? The answer is I still need my
glasses because it doesn't matter if the image is actually
a couple inches away. It's still interpreting light that is
coming from far away. That's kind of cool, I think.
So I started researching, you know, the history of glasses.
Do you know when eyeglasses were invented? I mean, what
(46:34):
a profound thing that was. And it says here that
Pliny the Elder, who was, you know, one of the
ancient historians, said that there were times in you know,
in the Greek and Roman ancient days, when people would
use gemstones, like they would just luck out and they'd
(46:55):
find a gemstone that would help them see. That supposedly
Emperor Nero had an emerald that he would use to
help him see, and that over time they started realizing
they could shape things. And the actual invention supposedly of
what we would recognize as a modern day eyeglass, it
(47:16):
seems to have been made in central Italy, most likely
in Pisa, where you know they have the Leaning Tower.
About twelve ninety, but we don't know exactly who came
up with him. And a sermon delivered on the twenty
third of February of thirteen oh six, A Friar said,
it is not yet twenty years since there was found
(47:38):
the art of making eyeglasses which make for good vision,
and it is so short a time that this new art,
never before extent, was discovered. I saw the first one
who discovered and practiced it, and I talked to him
in quote, but I don't think they ever actually say, like,
this is the person who invented eyeglasses. That it's interesting
(48:00):
that thousands of years ago people were using natural gemstones
to achieve this. But apparently, you know, the Italians and
the late twelve hundreds gave us what we would recognize
now as eyeglasses. And what a revolutionary invention, and yet
so simple by today's standards, because it's a passive device
(48:22):
that just bends and manipulates light. So there's your mental
manna for this edition of the program. All right, Now,
let's end the show as I so often do, by
listening to that tone that continues to bring people great
success in their lives, help happiness, all that kind of stuff.
(48:46):
If you can close your eyes, take a few deep breaths.
If you have some water, you might want to put
it in front of the speaker and then afterward drink
that water. Here is the good Fortune tone, exclusively from
this show. That's it for this edition of the show.

This is Strange Thing with Joshua Warren. I am Joshua
FEE Warren, and each week on this show, I'll be
bringing you brand new mind blowing content, news exercises, and
weird experiments you can do at home, and a lot more.
(01:38):
On this edition of the program, it's Little Person time again.
That's right. I am recording this in March of twenty
twenty three, so I've decided to get an early jump
on celebrating Saint Patrick's day up the Airy Mountain, down
(01:59):
the Rushy Glynn, we dare not go a hunting for
fear of little men, So of course I'm talking about
lepre cons and the like. And I figure, you know,
it's better to perhaps have you listen to this a
little early rather than write on Saint Patrick, so you'll
have some time to enjoy the content. And I tell
(02:23):
you what, I'm also going to do something on this
show that I don't think I've ever done before. I
am going to play a complete song for you. And
this is an original by u f O Phil. And
if you listen to Coast to Coast am with George Nori,
(02:46):
you will know that he is a staple of the show.
He has a very distinctive voice. He's a great musician
and singer. And he composed this song that George has played,
oh gosh, I don't know hundreds of times. I think
he usually plays it at the end of maybe like
Friday Nights, and it's it's just called I'm listening to
(03:07):
Coast to Coast and so UFO philm has this song
that I'm recently discovered called Larry the lunar lepre con
so I will be playing that for you on the show,
with his permission. And so that's just a special fun thing.
Another thing I'm gonna do right up front here is
something else that I've never done on a show. According
(03:30):
to my DNA analysis, a good chunk of my DNA
is Irish, also Scottish. So I decided I'm going to
start off the show here with a shot of Irish whiskey. Yeah,
And you know what, And if you have your favorite
(03:53):
beverage nearby, go ahead and prepare it. We'll do a
toast together. How about that? And so I just I
don't drink liquor that much anymore. I used to when
I was younger, growing up in Asheville, but now that
I'm getting a little older, I find that often if
I drink liquor, I may not feel too great the
next day. But I think I can handle a shot
of this. I just grabbed a bottle off of my
(04:16):
bar here at home, and I'm in my home studio.
I'm not going anywhere, so I can do this. I
just might sound a little bit goofy the rest of
the show, But what's new there? What do we have here.
This is cast matured kilbrin Irish whiskey, nice green bottle.
It's got a red foil sill on it. So I'm
(04:37):
gonna go ahead and pop this baby open. Oh yeah,
and I got my special shot glass here. I'm not
going to go into that, but maybe someday I'll tell
you about my special shot glass, and maybe I'll even
sell you one so you can drink whiskey like me.
All right, So I'm gonna pour pour my shot of
(04:59):
Irish whisky ye to warm up for the show. And
it is cold here, even though you know I'm in
Las Vegas, but you'd be surprised how how chilly it
gets here in Vegas. Okay, there's my one shot and uh, okay,
if you're ready, here we go. Here is uh one
of the old Irish toasts I remember as you slide
(05:19):
down the banister of life. May the splinters always point
the right way. Ah. WHOA smooth and toasty yeah, certainly powerful.
It's got that little Irish whiskey burn at the end.
(05:41):
All right, I think I'm loosened up now. I'm ready
to do a Saint Patrick's show, and I may as
well start by doing something stupid and illogical. I think
I'm gonna debut a new segment on this show, and
it's called and now I'm going to make my wife mad?
(06:03):
Do you think? What do you think? Is that a
good idea? Is that a segment just to make my
wife mad? You can see that shot very quickly went
into my bloodstream. So you know, hopefully she won't listen
to this show. I just thought something happened recently that
I thought was kind of funny. She's probably not gonna
like the fact that I'm bringing this up on the show.
(06:25):
But here we go. So I don't do a lot
of TV filming anymore. I just don't have the time
for it. I've told you that before. But I did
agree to do a project recently out filming in the
desert here. Of course, in Las Vegas. Las Vegas is
as a city, is an island in the middle of
(06:46):
a desert. We's surrounded by miles and miles and miles
of just destolate land. That's why you have all the
military testing and stuff out here. So I can't tell
you the details. But this guy who's a producer in
La he's a friend of mine. He's working on this project,
and it's you know, it has to do with UFOs.
(07:08):
That's as much as I'll tell you. And so he
came out here to film with me recently, and so
um Lauren and I got into our suv it's a
Toyota for Runner, which we've had for a long time,
and we drove way out into the desert to meet
(07:30):
with this small crew. And so after I finished my
filming part, we set our farewells and then we got
back into our Forerunner and the battery was dead. And
so at first I was like, well, that's just kind
(07:56):
of weird because the battery is not that old, but
this is a harsh climate, and I go, well, no probablimo.
I've got our super rugged survival box that I always
keep in the car. I have this box, you know.
I I am enough of a prepper type that I've
(08:17):
got a Ham radio in there because I have a
Ham radio license. I have got a little battery that
you can use to jump start your car if there's
not another car around. I've got all kinds of you know,
like some block supplies and survival blankets and first aid
kits and walkie talk I mean, I got all this
(08:39):
stuff and of course there's jumper cables in there. So
I was like, we're gonna be fine, no sweat. I
had prepared for everything out in this harsh desert environment.
But it turns out there was one thing I had
not prepared for. My beautiful wife Lauren took the kit
(09:01):
out of the car. Oops. I did not prepare for that.
And so yeah, and of course I'm like, you too,
we have an emergency kit. That is the one thing
that I cannot compensate for is the kit not being
(09:21):
of the car. This is how reality works, isn't it.
And she goes, well, it's your fault. I was like,
how is that my fault? And she said that she
went to the grocery store and bought a bunch of
groceries that I had wanted, and so she took it
out of the car to make room. And I'm like, well,
but you could have put it back in. Look, you
(09:42):
know that you can't win these kinds of arguments, guys.
So here I was. I was like, all right, surely
this film crew and their van they probably have some
jumper cables. Nope, they didn't have jumper cables. As a
matter of fact, their shoot had almost been cursed. They'd
had a lot of different problems along the way, which
I won't get into. Running. So here we are stranded
(10:02):
in the desert without jumper cables, with my super duper
survival box back at my house. But I must say
that the person who saved the day was mister Jason
Sarachi because he also was part of the shoot that day,
and we were able to use his truck to drive
(10:23):
to wherever we could finally find some jumper cables. Anyway,
we got it solved. But it was kind of funny
though that here we were in an area where a
lot of strange phenomena had been occurring, a lot of
big electrical signals, and you know, the battery gets get zepped.
I don't know that it seems like and you may
(10:45):
not realize this. If you start working on a paranormally
oriented show, and I mean UFO's ghosts, psychic phenomena, Cryptod's,
any of that stuff, then often there are things that
will work against you. There are obstacles that you face.
So everything turned out well, and it was a great
lesson learned to your survival kit doesn't do any good
(11:07):
for you unless you have it with you. All right,
sorry about that, Lauren, But okay, now let's get ready
to talk about Saint Patrick's Day and the little people,
because you know my friend Jim Marris, he used to say,
a little green man runs across the room at a
party and one person says, look an alien, Another person says,
(11:31):
look a leprechron another person says, look a demon. Well,
what are these things? We've seen them all throughout history
from different cultural points of view, but we interpret these
beings in different ways. Coming up on our first break,
and you may or may not know that I have
(11:54):
this brand new, one last chance item out there for you.
Some of you were able to get a Buddha Stone
a long time ago with a purple plate kit that
was early on, and those are gone. Then some of
you are lucky enough to get the Buddha Stone wand
now those are gone. But what you can get now,
(12:16):
this is my last time offering this, the Buddha Stone
money magnet kit. Go right now to vi Buddha Stone
dot com. That's spelled Buddha the Buddha Stone dot com.

(13:01):
to Strange Things on the iHeartRadio and Coast to Coast
AM Paranormal Podcast Network, and I will be right back.
(13:43):
Welcome back to Strange Things on the iHeartRadio and Coast
to Coast AM Paranormal Podcast Network. I'm your host, the
Wizard of Weird, Joshua Pee Warren, beaming into your wormhole
brain from my studio and Sina City, Las Vegas, Nevada,
where every day is golden and every night is silver. Yes,
(14:08):
as we prepare for the Saint Patty's celebratory mood, get
ready to dance a jig because here it is from
UFO Phil a song that I presume I will be
listening to at least once a year from here on out.
This is Larry the lunar leprechn Last year at the
(14:39):
Saint Patrick's Dash. I was down at the pub eating
bangers and nash. A beta guy. He was short, green
and fat, with a big green antenna sticking out of
his hat. He looked kind of Irish except for his
mister spot ears. He said, my name is Larry. I
came from the Moon to by beer. May read the
(15:04):
lunar Lefrica one point again his head. Then he's gone.
He visits the planet every year Earth. This is the
only place that has good sheer and Larry the Labrica
knows how to have a good time, but he never
drinks so much that he won't be able to fly.
(15:30):
And that night Larry started to talk about how the
Moon has a shortage of barley and hops. They've got
clovers and potatoes to spare. They serve shamrocks shakes, but
no beer. It's not fair. He looked like a spaceman
except for his rainbow tattoo. He said, for me a guinness,
(15:50):
because they don't have this on the moon. Marry the
lunar Lefrica. One point again his head. Then he's gone.
He visits the planet every year because Earth is the
only place that has good beer, and Larry the Labrica
knows how to have a good time, but he never
(16:15):
drinks so much that he won't be able to fly.
Larry the Lunar Labrica one point of gain his head,
then he's gone. He's not an ardinary guy. A rainbow
apart a goal. The ship bad fly and Larry the
Labrica knows how to have a good time, but he
(16:40):
never drinks so much that he won't be able to fly.
And each year on Saint Patrick's Day, he'll be down
at the pub, sitting in the same place, a quick
beer and some bangers to go a chat with some humans,
then time to fly home. He looked kind of irish,
(17:01):
except for his mister spot ears he drinks. He said,
my name is Larry. I came from the Moon to
by bear Larry the Lunar Leprica one pint aginnis and
then he's gone. He visits the planet every year. The
(17:22):
Earth is the only place that serves dream beer can
be the Lunar Laprica one point a ginnis and then
he's gone. And Larry the Aprica knows how to have
a good time that he never drinks so much that
he won't be able to never drink so much that
(17:43):
he won't be able to never drink so much that
he won't be able to fly. Ah. Yes, Larry the
lunar lepricaon how can you feel good when you listen
to that? Especially after a shot of Irish whiskey? Thank you,
(18:07):
UFO Phil for letting us all enjoy your original creation there.
And by the way, if you go to his website
ufo Phil dot com, that's Phil spelled Phil ufo fil
dot com, it's very interesting. It says he's President of Earth,
Ambassador to the Aliens, a really nice guy. But listen
(18:30):
to this. It says UFO Phil feature film in development,
and if you are interested in becoming involved with the
UFO Phil feature film, he has an email address right there,
and I'm sure he would be happy to hear from you.
And I can't wait to see what he's gonna come
(18:52):
up with. So go check that out at ufo pil
dot com. All right, well, hopefully if you're in the
mood by now, I don't know what else I can
do for you. And now, look, I don't want this
show to be redundant because I have had a lot
of close friends tell me about having personal encounters with
(19:15):
little people. And I have talked about all those stories before,
so I'm not going to repeat them. If you want
to hear those stories, go back, go way back and
listen to episode twenty three of this Strange Things podcast
and it's called are the Little People Real? Okay? Episode
twenty three. And also keep in mind that if you
(19:37):
just want to see a whole list of all the
Strange Things shows and my descriptions of them, because sometimes
my description in some cases is a little different than
the description that's posted with the podcast, just go to
Strange Things show dot com Strange Things Show dot com
and you'll see the list of every single episode and
(19:58):
what I think best is scribes that episode. So go
back and listen to twenty three, episode twenty three if
you really want to hear about people who have encountered
them face to face and some theories about what they
may be. But let's talk for now though, a little
bit about what Saint Patrick's Day is. And I should
also mention that I know people of Irish descent, especially
(20:24):
some who literally were born and raised in Ireland, who
don't really like Saint Patrick's Day because they don't agree
with the influence that Christianity had when it moved into
Ireland all those centuries ago, So you know, you just
have to also keep that in mind. I guess it's
worth mentioning. But okay, here's what Wikipedia says. Saint Patrick's
(20:47):
Day or the Feast of Saint Patrick, the Day of
the Festival of Patrick, is a cultural and religious celebration
held on the seventeenth of March, which is the traditional
death date of Saint Patrick. They believe he was born
in three eighty five and died around four sixty one,
(21:07):
and he has considered the foremost patron saint of Ireland.
I'm going to talk a little bit more about who
he was in a minute. There's you know, the facts
are unclear, but it looks like that he he died
when he was, you know, an older fellow in thee
in his seventies or something. If you see some pictures
of him, they show him looking a lot like Santa
Claus with a long white beard. So it says here
(21:30):
Saint Patrick's Day was made an official Christian feast day
in the early seventeenth century and is observed by the
Catholic Church, the Anglican Communion, the Eastern Orthodox, the Lutheran Church.
Actually I'm not not going to name everything, but it
says celebrations generally involve public parades and festivals, the wearing
of green attire and or shamrocks. And it says historically
(21:57):
restrictions on eating and drinking alcohol all were lifted for
the day, which encouraged people to consume. It's a public
holiday in the Republic of Ireland, Northern Ireland, Canadian province
of Newfoundland and Labrador, widely celebrated in the US, Canada, Argentina, UK, etc. Etc.
(22:23):
And so here is what I can recall about, you know,
the legend of Saint Patrick. Again, this was so long ago.
A lot of it's very unclear, but so I believe
he was Traditionally they say he was born somewhere in
the British Isles, and somehow, when he was like sixteen
(22:46):
years old, he ended up being captured and becoming a
slave to Irish pirates. You don't think so much about
that concept, do you, Yeah, But so he was enslaved
by Irish pirates for years until he finally escaped, and
(23:06):
then of course he became affiliated with the church and
rose through the ranks, so to speak. And then decided
to go back to Ireland and help the people there,
which is not might sound kind of ironic, and he
would use the shamrock to describe the Holy Trinity because
you know, shamrocks usually have just three leaves there. And
(23:30):
of course, being the Emerald, isle Green was always a
big player. And he is also credited with supposedly removing
all the snakes from Ireland. You know, there's all this
drama about him getting up there and driving the snakes out,
but most people say, like, there's pretty good evidence that
(23:53):
there have never even been snakes in Ireland. So kind
of reminds you of the old joke like this guy
killed all the lions in Las Vegas and you say
there are no lions in Las Vegas, and it's like, well, exactly,
you know that kind of thing, even though actually there
are lions in Las Vegas. There's a whole lion habitat here.
Bad example anyway, So but yeah, you know, he apparently
(24:17):
was beloved enough for this holiday to surround his legend,
and they nobody seems to know exactly how he died,
but it just says that he died peacefully of natural
causes and so that's what Saint Patrick's stay is about.
And of course the little people, they have been a
(24:38):
part of that culture going way back, you know, pre
Christian So maybe we'll talk a little bit about that
when we come back. But I also realized I'm getting
behind on some pretty interesting listener emails, and so I'm
gonna read some of those to you. And in fact,
there's one that stands out in my mind from somebody
(25:01):
who says, I think I have been experiencing astral visitors
that are messing with me. So we're not talking about
ghosts of dead people. We're talking about living people who
are astrally projecting to this guy's house. He thinks that
might be possible, and he says, how do I tell
the difference. I'm Joshua Pee Warren. You're listening to Strange
(25:24):
Things on the iHeartRadio and Coast to Coast. I am
parin normal podcast network, and I will be right back
after these important messages. Welcome back to Strange Things. I'm
(26:11):
the iHeartRadio and Ghost to Coast. I am para normal
podcast network. I'm your host, Joshua Pete Warren. And this
is the show where the unusual becomes usual. Ozia tato
Zoom may post a video of yourself saying that word
(26:32):
on social media and just see what reaction you get.
Don't give an explanation. I think if you can remember that,
you're strengthening your brain. Ozia tato Zoom may. All right,
let's see what the story is behind lepre cons. And
once again, if you listen to episode twenty three of
(26:54):
this show called Are the Little People Real, you're gonna
get it deeper understanding. But okay, here's just you know,
since we're talking about it. Wikipedia, a LEPrecon is a
diminutive supernatural being an Irish folklore, classed by some as
a type of solitary fairy. They are usually depicted as
(27:16):
little bearded men wearing a coat and hat who partake
and mischief, and later times they have been depicted as
shoemakers who have hidden a pot of gold at the
end of the rainbow. LEPrecon like creatures rarely appear in
Irish mythology and only became prominent in later folklore. Have
you ever seen Darbio Gill and The Little People? Boy,
(27:38):
that's a great movie, and you know that, I guess
that's one of the cool things about the LEPrecon concept
is that we're going back to making wishes. You know,
the LEPrecon can grant you a wish. But unfortunately, this
whole idea of a LEPrecon granting a wish has taken
(27:58):
on kind of a sinister on text because you've got
you've got to have drama and stories and so usually,
like the LEPrecon, wish comes at a price that is unexpected.
So it's it reminds you of like the Monkeys Paul
short story, where be careful what you wish for. You
might get it, but it's going to happen in a
(28:20):
way that you're not gonna like, you're gonna have to
sacrifice something else that you're not even thinking about. It's
a surprise, and that has scared a lot of people
away from the whole manifestation and wish making practice. But
in reality, you do not generally have to worry about
(28:40):
that sort of thing because you are only capable of
receiving what you put out when you are making up
your desire to manifest something on your own. So I mean,
I guess if a little man pops up and asks
you that, well, maybe that maybe that does have a catch,
but that doesn't actually happen when you're actually manifesting things.
(29:03):
You are putting out the projection for what you want,
and if you only put out positivity, then only positivity
can come back. So don't even worry about that. But
let's get onto the name LEPrecon. This is actually a
lot trickier than I thought it was going to be.
The etymology they say it's they think this word is
(29:24):
descended from the old Irish lucker pond or luprecon. It's like, okay,
and then they give you different versions and it's like, okay,
Well what does all that mean? And apparently it's kind
of unclear. They say the word may have been coined
as a compound of the roots lagu and corp, which
are Latin for small and body. Okay, And then it
(29:49):
says that folk etymology derives the word from lafe, which
means half and brogue because of the frequent betrayal of
the LEPrecon is working on a single shoe. So I
don't know. I guess nobody really knows for sure. But
(30:10):
they say the LEPrecon is said to be a solitary
creature whose principal occupation is making and cobbling shoes and
who enjoys practical jokes. It says the LEPrecon is considered
to be not a professional cobbler, but frequently seen mending
his own shoes as he runs about so much he
(30:30):
wears them out with great frequency. And let's see, it
says this is the perfect opportunity to capture a LEPrecon
when he's working on his shoes, and then refusing to
release him until the LEPrecon gives the captor supernatural wealth. Okay,
(30:51):
so you know, if you're interested in leprecns, you can
read more about that on your own. But I just
think it's always interesting to look where these traditions come from.
All right, now, let's get into some emails. Let's see
what you are thinking. This comes to me from Andrew.
(31:18):
I'm not sure where he is located, so I'm just
gonna it's kind of a lengthy email, so let me
just sort of I'm just gonna read it best I
can as he wrote it. He says, is there a
way one can detect astral projectors like using an EMF
(31:40):
meter to find paranormal activity in the other life? He
goes on to say, I have been experiencing some weird
phenomena regarding spiritual activity and oppression, but multiple times they
have claimed to be astral projecting, which I cannot confirm.
(32:01):
Would you know of any method to figure out if
they are astral projectors, telepaths messing with me, which is
ethereal beings or ghosts of the dearly departed? He says,
I've been trying to nail it down, but I'm just
honestly distracted by some of their weird threats and judgmental attitudes.
(32:22):
And then he gives some details. He says, at one point,
I found myself in the middle of a park, and
he tells where it is, but I'm not going to
repeat that, and he says I was on a little island.
I guess they have a pond there, And he says,
basically calling whatever gods or goddesses or whatever would give
me clarification. And I was doing this because these beings
(32:46):
were claiming to be humbling me while mentally torturing me.
So he says, I started messing with them back. It's
a whole bizarre type of communication I've never heard of before,
being you, But I digress. So here I am on
this little island when the wind kicks up and in
a three hundred and sixty degree fashion all around me,
(33:08):
both inside and outside my head, as if I were
in the middle of a surround sound system. I hear
this adult the female voice say will you go to
war with me? And then something along the lines of
I'm Lilith, and he says, anyway, there's a bunch whole
(33:28):
more surprise occurrences, as if they're intentionally trying to mess
with my head. But I am a fool me once
kind of person. So he says, if you have any
knowledge on this or beings and other planes of existence,
please let me know, all right. So, I mean, this
is a weird email, right, What do you do with
an email like this? So I just kind of try
(33:51):
to break it down the best I could, And I said, well, look, Andrew,
in my opinion, as an investigator who measures these things
best I can, there is no way to distinguish between
astral projectors and other types of interactive spiritual beings by
(34:14):
using detection equipment alone. It comes down to an interpretation
of entity behavior and psychology. So, in other words, it
is my belief that, based on the evidence I've collected,
whenever something takes on a non physical form, whether that
(34:35):
be something we consider ghostly or some person who's projecting astrally,
essentially a part of them, a spiritual representation of them
is materializing somewhat in the physical world and interacting with you,
(34:56):
and that process it still creates the same kind of
changes with electrostatic fields and electromagnetic anomalies. And so therefore
I don't think that you can just use our current
level of detection equipment to differentiate. But that's why I went,
I'll just say, so you have to look at their behavior,
which is why that you know, most ghosts are non interactive,
(35:20):
and they're redundant, and they are predictable, and you can
see that this is almost like a recording in the
environment that keeps replaying itself. But in other cases, you
have a being that seems like it's interactive, which might
be a disembodied spirit, but it's not speaking to you,
(35:43):
uh in a way as if it's coming to attack
you or something. It might be the spirit of a
deceased love one. So if you have these like strangers
that are popping up in a spiritual form and they
are saying things that are disturbing you. Well, then it
could be somebody who's astrally projecting I guess. I mean,
(36:04):
that's pretty darn rare. Or you know, it's more likely
some kind of a thing that would be classified as demonic,
like some kind of being from another realm that's coming
and messing with you. But on the other hand, you
know what, you always if you start having these experiences,
I think you should go see a physician and make
(36:27):
sure that you don't have a mental illness as well.
You know, that's just part of the process. Have that
checked out, you know. But when it comes to like
figuring out a behavioral question, I always tell people email
my friend Angela Moore and just tell her what's going on.
She might be able to help you sort through how
(36:48):
to interpret the behavior of these things if you have
something really coming through. And her email address is Angela
Vision at yahoo dot com A N G E, L
A V SI and Angela Vision at yahoo dot com.
All right, so that's how I answered that question. Maybe
that's of interest to some of you. Next, I have
(37:09):
an email from Celeste and she has a question about wands,
and she said, first of all, the Buddha wand is gorgeous.
I love it, and it was beautifully wrapped. But then
she talks about another type of wand, and she says,
(37:30):
how do I tell the difference between these ones and
how to use them? Do they do the same thing?
This is a question. I get a lot from people
who have once and so when we come back, I'll
tell you about that. And then also some news scientists
have built a tractor beam. I'm Joshua pe Warren. You're
listening to Strange Things on the iHeartRadio and Coast to
(37:53):
Coast am per normal podcast Network. I'll be right back.
(38:33):
Welcome back to the final segment of this edition of
Strange Things on the iHeartRadio and Coast to Coast to
M Parinormal Podcast Network. I'm your host, Joshua pe Warren,
and Celeste emailed me and said, Okay, there it is.
(38:57):
She says, first of all, the Buddha wand is gorgeous. Now,
of course you can't. I don't think I think those
are sold out. I'm not one hundred percent sure, but
she says, I love it. Also, I have the wand
that has the magnets on the bottom with the quartz
crystal on top. She is talking about the forces of
nature wand I'm pretty sure we have some of those
(39:19):
still remaining if you go to the Curiosity Shop at
Joshua Peewarren dot com. And she said, can you explain
the difference in the wands or do they do the
same things? Thank you in advance. And I get these
questions from time to time about you know, different products
and different versions of things, and so I figured out,
go ahead and read you what I sent her. I said,
(39:42):
High Celeste, both of these wands are intended to help
you manifest whatever you like. I just experiment with different
wand designs for different things. One day, I'm in the
mood for pizza for dinner, the next day grilled fish, etc.
So pick whichever one draws you in for a particular wish.
(40:03):
It's different for everyone and every wish, and that's the truth.
And she said, thank you so much, God bless you.
I also received this message from a gentleman named David
who lives I believe, in Missouri, and he sent me
(40:25):
a couple of pictures and he said, I have been
using the Buddha stone and the Tesla plate the last
several months with much success. And his two pictures are
cash outs from the casino he goes to and you
know what I mean, Like you cash out and they
(40:47):
give you a little ticket that you go and you
take to the machine to get your actual cash or
to the cage where the cashier is. One of the
tickets that he has here in this picture cashed out
one thousand, six hundred and fifty three dollars and the
other one cashed out two thousand, one hundred and seventy
(41:07):
three dollars. He's doing pretty darn well. As a matter
of fact, both of those are enough money that he
would have had to fill out a an IRS tax
form for hitting money like that. So he says, the
Buddha Stone and the Tesla player, keep that in mind
when you go to the Buddha Stone dot com and
(41:29):
again Buddha is spelled Buddha like bood Ha the Buddha
Stone dot com. Thank you for that, David, And hey, congratulations, man,
you know you've I bet your life is now easier
in some ways, huh. I have another really really interesting
(41:52):
email that I read, and I thought, you know what,
this is a subject that is interesting enough I turn
it into like a main subject for a whole show.
So I'm going to save that one for next time,
but I do want to get this in here. From
Popular Mechanics dot com. This just recently was published, says
(42:12):
scientists actually did it. They built a real working tractor beam.
You know how in the sci fi movies and TV shows,
suddenly a tractor beam kicks on. I know they did
this in Star Wars and a ship gets caught in
the beam and it can't move and it gets pulled in,
(42:35):
and it says here. Tractor beams have long been a
staple of sci fi, but you might not know they've
also existed in the real world, all be it at
a very small skill. Microscopic tractor beams, better known as
optical tweezers, can pull atoms and nanoparticles for use in
(42:57):
medicine and research. But we've ever been able to actually
see this happen. Well now we can, and a new
study published in the journal Optic Express, Chinese scientists created
the first tractor beam strong enough to manipulate macroscopic objects.
(43:17):
That means things you can actually see with a naked eye.
That's how large these objects are. They don't say exactly
how big they are, but you know, being able to
see them with the naked eye. That's huge in terms
of like quantum stuff. It says, yes, it was done
in a highly controlled lab manipulating a specific type of
(43:38):
graphene composite. But it says they used they used a
laser to move an object. And the scientist right quote,
with our new approach, the light pulling force has a
much larger amplitude. In fact, it is more than three
orders of magnitudes larger than the light pressure used to
drive a solar cell, which is the momentum of photons
(44:01):
to exert a small pushing force. And so they say
in the experiments, a torsional pendulum device presented the laser
pulling phenomenon. So basically they created some kind of a
pendulum and they're hitting this thing with a laser, and uh,
you know they can they can suck it toward them.
And so that's what these shiny scientists have done. And
(44:24):
they say that this could Whether or not this could
work so well on big stuff here on Earth is
yet to be seen. But actor at tractor beam like
this could definitely manipulate vehicles and aircraft in space or
somewhere like Mars. So interesting, huh. Popular Mechanics dot Com
(44:44):
see sci Fi Come into life, Come into life? Okay
in the and the final minutes of this podcast. Uh,
sometimes I have this segment that I like to call
mental Manna, where I just share with you something that
I find interesting that I've been thinking about. And the
(45:06):
other day I bought a periscope for a project. It's like,
you know, one foot long, and when you look through
this periscope, I mean you could lift it up above
a fence or some other object and spy, you know,
hunters use them to stay hidden while they're looking for
their game. And what's funny is that when you look
(45:27):
through the lower end of the periscope, the mirror that
you're looking at is only a couple inches from your eyes. Now,
I am near sighted, so I wear glasses, and that
means near sighted means I can see stuff that's up close,
but I can't see stuff clearly that's far away. So
when you're looking through the periscope, the mirror is actually
(45:50):
close to your eyes. So do you think I have
to wear glasses to look at the mirror on the
periscope or not think about that for a minute. I'm
supposed to be able to see stuff that's close to me.
So can I look at the mirror that's only a
couple inches away and see clearly? Or do I still
(46:12):
need my glasses? The answer is I still need my
glasses because it doesn't matter if the image is actually
a couple inches away. It's still interpreting light that is
coming from far away. That's kind of cool, I think.
So I started researching, you know, the history of glasses.
Do you know when eyeglasses were invented? I mean, what
(46:34):
a profound thing that was. And it says here that
Pliny the Elder, who was, you know, one of the
ancient historians, said that there were times in you know,
in the Greek and Roman ancient days, when people would
use gemstones, like they would just luck out and they'd
(46:55):
find a gemstone that would help them see. That supposedly
Emperor Nero had an emerald that he would use to
help him see, and that over time they started realizing
they could shape things. And the actual invention supposedly of
what we would recognize as a modern day eyeglass, it
(47:16):
seems to have been made in central Italy, most likely
in Pisa, where you know they have the Leaning Tower.
About twelve ninety, but we don't know exactly who came
up with him. And a sermon delivered on the twenty
third of February of thirteen oh six, A Friar said,
it is not yet twenty years since there was found
(47:38):
the art of making eyeglasses which make for good vision,
and it is so short a time that this new art,
never before extent, was discovered. I saw the first one
who discovered and practiced it, and I talked to him
in quote, but I don't think they ever actually say, like,
this is the person who invented eyeglasses. That it's interesting
(48:00):
that thousands of years ago people were using natural gemstones
to achieve this. But apparently, you know, the Italians and
the late twelve hundreds gave us what we would recognize
now as eyeglasses. And what a revolutionary invention, and yet
so simple by today's standards, because it's a passive device
(48:22):
that just bends and manipulates light. So there's your mental
manna for this edition of the program. All right, Now,
let's end the show as I so often do, by
listening to that tone that continues to bring people great
success in their lives, help happiness, all that kind of stuff.
(48:46):
If you can close your eyes, take a few deep breaths.
If you have some water, you might want to put
it in front of the speaker and then afterward drink
that water. Here is the good Fortune tone, exclusively from
this show. That's it for this edition of the show.
