Welcome to the iHeartRadio and Coast to Coast AM paranormal
podcast network. Now get ready for us Strange Things with
Joshua P. Warren.

Speaker 2 (00:13):

Speaker 1 (00:56):
Ready to be by the Wizard of Weird. This is
Strange with Joshua Warren. I have JOSHUAAE Warren, and each
week on this show, I'll be bringing a brand new
my gloving content, news exercises, and weird experiments you can

(01:19):
do at home, and a lot more on this edition
of the show. Can Magnets Really Help Your Body? I
recently did a show an episode about toys, and I
was talking about how that I personally love some of

(01:41):
the older, like old fashioned toys that are weird and
do clever, little funny things, as opposed to what most
kids consider toys today. Here's a great example of that
I just bought this toy off of eBay that is
from Germany. I this is vintage. I've got the box

(02:03):
and I don't know when this was made, but I
would guess, you know, maybe like the nineteen sixties. And
it says in both English and German magic dancer with
magnetic mirror dances round and round. And what you find
inside this little blue box here is a little plastic figure.

(02:32):
It is a little plastic ballerina. I'm going to say
she's about two inches tall, very well made. She's wearing
a red dress, and she's standing on top of a
round platform and there obviously is some kind of a
magnet in that platform. It also includes a little rectangular mirror.

(02:57):
And this mirror, no doubt, also has some kind of
a magnetic arrangement inside it. And so when you take
the mirror and you move it close to the little dancer, well,
guess what. She starts to twirl like crazy and you
can control her and move her around all over a
table as she's spinning. And it's the funnest, the funniest

(03:20):
and most fun little thing to do. And I'm playing
with it right now. It's just it's just silly and mindless, right,
you know, But I mean it's just cool, and whenever
I play with toys like this, it reminds me of
just how just absolutely crazy and magical magnetism really is,

(03:44):
and how misunderstood it is also in lots of ways.
And you know, again, let's see what is this say here?
Magic dancer says, place figure on a smooth surface, Move
the mirror on the surface toward the figure, which will
then commence to dance. Oh well, it doesn't take a

(04:06):
heck of a lot to entertain me sometimes, as you
can see. But I started thinking about magnetism and how
it affects everybody. And years ago I was watching a
documentary maybe you've seen something like this as well. And
in this documentary, they took a frog, a little frog,

(04:30):
and they put it in the middle of a huge
magnetic field, and the frog began to levitate. Now, this
is not a special frog, it's just made of flesh
and blood, just like you and myself. But uh, the
frog could leave it. Now why is that? Why do
you think that something like a frog can levitate if

(04:53):
the field is strong enough. Well, it's really because that
everything in the universe is affected by magnetism, everything you know,
there are four fundamental forces of nature, and I would bet,
I would bet that ninety percent of you listening to

(05:13):
me right now could not name all four of those
fundamental forces of nature, and you shouldn't be ashamed of that.
They don't do a good job of teaching this sort
of thing in school, and most people are not inclined
to look it up. You want to guess what those
four fundamental forces are, all right, well, I'll tell you.
One is gravity. That should not be a big surprise.

(05:38):
The second one is electro magnetism. Now that's what I'm
talking about because magnetism is related to electricity and vice versa.
So whenever you have a magnetic field, there is going
to be an electrical component, And so when we're talking
about magnetism and electromagnetism, we're basically talking about about the

(06:00):
same thing in terms of the makeup of mother Nature.
The other two forces are the strong nuclear force and
the weak nuclear force, and scientists currently say that these
four forces dictate all physical interactions in the universe. They
range from binding atomic nuclei to shaping galaxies. They act

(06:25):
through the exchange of particles to govern how matter attracts, repels,
or decays. All right, Now, I'm not going to get
deeper into that. You can do that on your own
if you're interested. Especially most people will say, well, what's
the difference between the strong nuclear and the weak nuclear? Again,
I don't want to go down that route in this show.
But electromagnetism, this is as a fundamental force throughout the universe.

(06:49):
It's almost really just like the force and Star wars
in a way. So if a frog can float in
a magnetic field, and that's an extreme example getting to
the point where you can float, well, obviously that frog's
body can be affected in somehow, in some way by
by an even weaker electro magnetic field. And you and

(07:12):
I are no different. Now when we're talking about this
frog in a magnetic field, they're they're apparently they were
putting him in a field that's like ten thousand times
stronger than a refrigerator magnet. So again we're talking about,
you know, very strong fields to create something like a levitation,

(07:33):
but still weaker fields can make an impact. And for
years people have talked to me about magnet therapy where
people wear bracelets, rings, necklaces, belts, shoe and soles that

(07:54):
have magnets, and they swear by them and say when
I when I wear the I feel better. It helps
me in some way. It takes a pain away. And
if you get onto just google and you just google
the AI overview. Does magnet therapy work? It says scientific

(08:17):
evidence does not support claims that static magnetic therapy like bracelets, wraps, insuls,
cures pain or disease. While some studies show minimal potential
for reducing pain, most results are indistinguishable from placebo effects.
Magnetic therapy often is not an effective treatment for pain,

(08:38):
according to a study on PubMed. Okay, so they don't
come right out and say no, but it says it
says most results are indistinguishable but from placebo. Okay, So
then I went to Groc and I asked Roc same question.

(09:00):
Does magnet therapy work? Grock just outright says no. Magnet
therapy using static magnets does not work beyond placebo effects.
And it says popular products like magnetic bracelets in souls,
mattress pads, wraps, or jewelry claim to relieve pain, improve circulation,

(09:20):
reduced inflammation, speed healing, or treat conditions like arthritis, by
applying static constant magnetic fields to the body. These are
widely sold to fall under alternative and pseudo scientific practices. Okay,
so that's AI is just saying like, nah, this doesn't work.
But I found an article written by a human being

(09:43):
at WebMD, written by Rachel Raife Ellis and medically reviewed
by Sabrina Felson, MD, that was published on April twenty
ninth of twenty twenty five, and this has a slightly
different take. Okay, I'm going to explain to you what

(10:06):
this says. I'm going to tell you about my experiences
wearing magnets, and then I'm going to tell you what
happens if you actually take blood and you expose it
to a powerful magnet, something that you could do at
your kitchen table if you wanted to. Can you attract

(10:29):
that blood to that magnet to see with your own
eyes some type of an interaction there to prove that
it must be doing something to your body when you
wear these. I have the answer to this and a
lot more. This is fascinating stuff. Now, before I go
to this break, I have invented something new. I have

(10:53):
never created a product that has diamonds before, and I know,
some people think that you hear these stories about like curses,
like the Curse of the Hope diamond. Well, diamonds are
very powerful things. Some of them are cursed, but on
the other hand, most diamonds are renowned for clearing negative

(11:13):
energy and creating a lot of clarity and purity. And
so I created something that, believe it or not, you
will not find in my Curiosity Shop because I'm doing
something special. I have created a protective cuff. It's called
Guardian Angel armcuff with real diamonds and it's absolutely beautiful.

(11:33):
I only have twenty eight of them, and I'm using
this as a flagship for this new temporary store I'm
opening up just for my spring cleaning. It's called Joshua P.
Warren's ninety nine Dollars and Less Store. Yes, you will
find all kinds of crazy things for ninety nine dollars
or less, and in some cases I only have two

(11:56):
of these things in stock. The only new thing is
the Guardian Angel armcuff. Twenty eight of those, but I
will be closing the shop down very soon. It's just
to help me with spring cleaning. And hey, if you
like this show, well you gotta support it. You'd hate
to tune in one week and find out, Oh, josh

(12:17):
decided not to do the show anymore. I have a
lot to do and I love doing this show, but
you gotta support it if you want me to keep
doing it. For now, go check out my brand new
temporary store. Go to Joshua ninety nine dot com. You
know just the numbers nine and nine Joshua ninety nine

(12:37):
dot com and see my ninety nine dollars in less store.
Everything is gonna sell out very quickly, I promise. I
am Joshua P. Warren. You're listening to Strange Things on
the iHeartRadio and Coast to Coast AM Paranormal Podcast Network,
and I will be right back. Welcome back to Strange

(13:29):
Things all the iHeartRadio and Coast to Coast a m
paranormal podcast Network. I have your hosts, the Wizard of Weird,
Joshua P. Warren, Beat me into your worm whole brain
from my studio in Sin City, Las Vegas, Nevada, where
every day is golden and every night is silver. Giato Zume.

(13:53):
And there is this great book that I've talked about
before that was published I think in the nineteen nineties
and it's called The Body Electric by Robert O. Becker,
The Body Electric, electro Magnetism, and the Foundation of Life.

(14:17):
It's considered a landmark book that illustrates and explains the
crucial role of electricity in living organisms, and it challenges
the traditional mechanistic view of the body. This guy Becker,
he's a pioneer in bioelectric science, and he talks about

(14:39):
research on regenerating things and how electromagnetism can stimulate health
and growth. And one of the things that's interesting about
the book, and it's been a while since I've read it,
is that he actually breaks down each of the different
little parts of the body and tells you about the
electromagnetic frequency that come from that part of the body.

(15:01):
I mean, it's we all know how significant electrical fields
are for the heart. I mean, that's what happens when
somebody's heart stops, they try to shock it with electricity,
you know. Or look at the electrical signals that are
so important in your brain, as your neurons are firing
and all that, well, all that has a magnetic component.
You can't have an electrical electrical activity without magnetism. Electro

(15:25):
magnetism and I understand that there is a difference and
the behavior of a static I mean just a standalone
field versus like a pulsed field. It's one of those
things I don't want to get into too much detail.
But even though there's there's a difference, you're you're still

(15:47):
dealing with the same force, which is magnetism. So here
this article at WebMD. Let's see WebMD dot com. It
says magnetic therapy uses different kinds of magnets on the
body to help boost your overall health. It may also

(16:07):
help treat certain conditions. Okay. It goes on to say
static magnetic field therapy. In this you touch a magnet
to your skin. You might wear a magnetic bracelet or
other magnetized jewelry. It could be a bandage with a
magnet in it, or you may wear a magnet as
a shoe and sole. You can also sleep on a

(16:29):
special mattress pad with a magnet. And then it talks
about electrically charged stuff, and then magnetic therapy with acupuncture,
and it has a section it says how it works.
Your body naturally has magnetic and electric fields. All your
molecules have a small amount of magnetic energy in them.
The thought behind magnetic field therapy is that certain problems

(16:50):
happen because your magnetic fields are out of balance. If
you put a magnetic field near your body, it's believed
things will go back to normal. Ions likesium and potassium
help your cells send signals and tests scientists have seen
magnets change how these ions act. However, so far there
is not evidence that magnets have the same effect on

(17:14):
cells when they're in your body. So they talk about
people who have used this because they claim it helps
with arthritis, wound healing, and somnia, headaches, fibromyalgia. Obviously, people
want to avoid if if you have a pacemaker at
insulin pump, if you're pregnant, you don't want to play
around with this kind of stuff. And some people say,

(17:34):
and I've read some pretty good reviews of studies claiming
it helps with nausea and dizziness in some cases. This
article concludes with does it work, and it says there
have not been many studies on magnetic field therapy. The
ones that have been done do not have enough data

(17:56):
to draw solid conclusions, though some clinical trials have shown
potential for magnetic field therapy as a treatment for back pain.
For the most part, there is no clear proof that
it can treat any condition. Okay, so this is an
article that was written in twenty twenty five, less than
a year ago, and at that time, the web md

(18:18):
article here says there has not been enough study done
to draw there's not enough data to draw solid conclusions. Okay, well,
that's interesting to keep in mind when you see the
AI just outright says nope, it doesn't work. But these,
you know, humans who are doctors, are leaving that possibility

(18:42):
out there. And obviously, I'm assuming most of us are
familiar with MRIs magnetic resonance imaging. Most hospitals have one.
It's a machine that uses a powerful magnetic field, radio waves,
and a computer to create detailed images of organs and

(19:05):
tissues without radiation. Now it's hard to understand exactly how
it works, but here's what they say. It works by
aligning hydrogen protons in the body's water molecules and then
disrupting them with radio waves to measure the energy released
as they realign. Okay, so it starts with a powerful magnet,

(19:29):
very powerful, roughly sixty thousand times stronger than the Earth's
and that aligns the human bodies hydrogen protons. Okay, so
that's the very first thing that we're seeing here is that, Yes,
again we're talking about an extremely strong field, but we're
trying to do something extremely dramatic here. But this is

(19:51):
another example. You know, an MRI is a simple example
of how magnetic fields do interact with the human body.
But look, we have iron in our blood, and you know,
magnets stick to iron. We have a lot of things
in the body. Well, actually, to some extent, every single

(20:12):
thing in your body is magnetically sensitive, because everything in
the universe is magnetically sensitive. Again, it's one of the
four fundamental forces of nature. So what happens? I mean,
can you actually see something with your own eyes? If
you sit down at your kitchen table and you take
a jar of blood and a magnet, you know, can

(20:35):
you see it doing something to that blood. Well, one
of my favorite YouTube channels is called the Action Lab,
and they did an experiment like this, and a lot
of other people have done this as well. But I
point out the Action Lab because it's a legit lab.

(20:57):
It's a legit lab channel on YouTube there it has
right now five point eleven million subscribers, and one of
the videos is called Giant Neodemium Monster Magnet versus Blood.
It's attracted. That's the title, Giant Neodemium Monster Magnet versus Blood.

(21:20):
It's attracted. Now, how giant are we talking about? Well,
if you watch the video, the magnet looks like it's
the size of a let's see, it looks like it's
the size of a kitchen sponge, all right, So the
guy is holding it in one hand. Maybe it's maybe

(21:41):
it's you could say, it's kind of like the size
of a chalkboard eraser. So we're not talking about some
magnet that's the size of your refrigerator. I mean, it's
a I don't know how powerful this magnet is. But
he's he's just sitting there holding it in his left hand,
and in his right hand he has a of beef

(22:02):
blood that he got from a slaughterhouse. Now, of course,
you know, you can take a magnet and you can
rub it all over your arms, and chances are you
won't be able to feel any activity from that. If
you do, it might just be your imagination. To really
test that, you need to be blindfolded or something and

(22:23):
then have a friend take a powerful magnet and see
if you can feel left arm or right arm, or
your back or your stomach or whatever as they move
the thing around you. I've never actually done that with
a magnet, but I think I'm gonna do that tonight.
That sounds like a fun thing to do with Lauren.
So what happens here when you take of course, when

(22:46):
you take a magnet and you sit it next to
a jar of blood, it's not going to move that
jar of blood. It's heavy and there's a lot of
other stuff in blood. But what he did to sort
of illustrate this, as others have done online pretty simply,
is he burns the blood. So he takes out, you know,

(23:10):
this big hot flame and burns the blood to ash,
so now it's been reduced to particles. And then he
dumps this layer of ash on top of the water
in a container. So he has like, you know, like
a maybe like a three inch deep tray of water,

(23:31):
and he just dumps it there and all these ashes
are floating on the surface. So then he takes the
magnet and he brings it over to the ashes. And
now that they're floating on water, now sure enough they
move over towards the magnet. He is showing that he
is attracting these particles from the blood with the magnet. Now, granted,

(23:56):
the form of iron that's in your body, it does
change somewhat when you burn it. One form of iron
becomes a slightly different form of iron, but they're both
still magnetically sensitive. And so if you think about the
fact that, all right, we can make a frog float,

(24:19):
we can we see that an MRI works by interacting
with the human body. And granted, those are very very
strong magnets, but this guy can take a magnet that
he fits in his hand and show you that it's
capable of attracting the particles in your blood. How can
we ignore the possibility that if you put a magnet

(24:42):
right up next to your veins there, then it's going
to do something. When we come back, I'm going to
tell you about my experiences with this. I'm going to
give you sort of a conclusion about what I believe
at this point, and then I want to tell you
something that I found amazing recently about the invention of

(25:04):
the microscope. I'm Joshua P. Warren. You're listening to range
things on the iHeart radio and Coast to Coast AM
Paranormal Podcast Network, and I will be back after these
important messages. Welcome back to Strange Things on the iHeart

(25:56):
Radio and Coast to Coast AM Paranormal pod Cast Network.
I'm your host, Joshua P. Warren, and this is the
show where the unusual becomes usual. I have a friend
who is very well known. I won't use his name
without his permission, but he's very well known, and he

(26:16):
is he's a metaphysician, he's a mystic, he is a manifestor,
and he has a big audience as a matter of fact,
and he visited me years ago here in Las Vegas,
and we were sitting around and talking about various things
that I mentioned some of my elements, and he says, well,

(26:37):
here take this, and he took a bracelet off and
gave it to me. And this is something that he
had made for himself. And it was very simple, just
a black strap, a velcrow strap with a strong neodymium
magnet that you could just place right over your veins

(27:01):
on your wrist. And I said, what is this just
a magnet? And he goes, yeah, yeah, But I go, oh, look,
you know I've tried magnet stuff before, because you can
go to Amazon or anywhere else and you can buy
magnetic bracelets or magnetic this or that, and but the
thing is, this is coming from factories that are trying

(27:22):
to make the cheapest possible thing. So you're you're really
not getting a good quality magnet if you just buy
something that's pre made in most cases. But this is
like he goes like, no, this is a really high
quality scientific, you know, strong neodemium magnet, the kind of

(27:42):
thing like you wouldn't want to put this next to
your credit cards. But that's all it is. It just
you know, it's a circular magnet that you just put
over your your veins on your wrist. And so I realized, like, well,
that's true. You know, I've bought all this kind of
like crap that they sell as being magnetic therapy and

(28:03):
it never really did anything. But let's try this out. Well,
I tell you what after that, and I give this
was years ago. I frequently wear this bracelet, and that
is because that it actually does, in most cases make
me feel better. And you know, I've got arthritis issues

(28:27):
and I've had times where I believe that it has
helped with the arthritis in my case, and times where
my energy has been very, very low, and I believe
it's helped with that. Times when I have felt nauseated,
and I think it has helped with that. And you know,
you go and you read these reports where they're saying, well,

(28:51):
you can't distinguish between this and placebo. Okay, if it's
a placebo, fine, But you know what, For one thing,
we know that magnetic fields affect stuff in your body.
And think about how tiny the cells are in your body.

(29:13):
Approximately ten thousand average size human cells can fit on
the head of a pin. So you don't think that
when you put a powerful neodymium magnet right there next
to your blood as it's pumping by, that it's going
to affect tiny things like that. We know we are

(29:34):
magnetically sensitive and so and I always think that this
whole thing called the placebo effect is very underestimated. In
many ways, the placebo effect is more interesting and amazing
than the things that we understand. I mean, if you
are feeling pain and I give you a pill that

(29:56):
has some kind of a exotic chemical in it and
that makes you feel better, then we go, okay, well,
we know that we're affecting the body chemistry here, and
we also know that there are going to be some
side effects. But if you're in pain and I give
you a sugar pill and you think it's got some
kind of exotic thing in it, and it still works

(30:17):
and it does the trick for you, that's even more amazing.
I don't understand why that. You know, scientists, when they
can't explain something, they just go, oh, well, we'll just
write that off to the placebo effect, like it's nothing.
It's like, no, that's where you need to be studying.
You know what's happening there. That's the area of the
breakthrough this like five percent of the time or whatever.

(30:40):
When it's a placebo of don't forget about that, like
focus on that. Explain that. Explain this consciousness in this
mind body environment relationship. How does that work? And you know,
the same thing when it comes to manifestation, people say,
you know, like wishing machines or whatever your thing is.
If you get you know, ad or a crystal, or

(31:02):
you get a tepaphone or whatever your thing is, if
it works for you, people could say, oh, it's just
a placibo. Okay, Well, if it works fine. Sometimes I
think that we these are just tools that help the
consciousness to achieve the goal. And if you want to
call that placebo okay. So I don't know if it's

(31:22):
actually doing anything to help you. But if you wear
these types of things, these magnets, and you feel like
it's helping you, well then it's helping you. So try
it out, try it out. And you know, it's funny
how that we're discovering more and more all the time.

(31:44):
And I mentioned to you that soon I'll be traveling
to another country and I'll be receiving some very high
grade stem cells to see if that will help with
prevent my rheumatoid arthritis from developing. Because as you get older,
rheumatoid arthritis continues to develop in many cases, and it

(32:05):
can cause all kinds of problems. And I'm trying to
nip that in a butt. So this is going to
be an experimental thing. And if you want to know
about my journey and whether or not it works, and
I'm going to tell you everything. I'm going to be
very specific. I'm going to tell you how I applied
for this. I'm going to tell you why I wanted
to do this. I'm going to tell you how much
it costs, what I had to do to prepare. I mean,

(32:26):
I'm going to give you all those details in time,
but you have to follow me through my E newsletter.
Go to Joshua P. Warren dot com and on the
homepage you can sign up for my free and spam
free E newsletter there. And as I go through this,
I'll try to do some I don't know if I
could do daily updates or not for you, but I'll try,

(32:46):
you know, sending you pictures and like really kind of
taking you on this journey. And then at some point
I'll I'll just give you all the details. I remember,
you know, when I was eighteen years old, there was
an older man who said to me, why is youth
wasted on the young? Good question, isn't it. Why is

(33:07):
youth wasted on the young? Well maybe it doesn't have
to be. We'll see. They say that these stem cells
can do some miraculous stuff. We'll see. I'm spending the
money to let you know. It'll be quite an adventure.
We are always developing at such an amazing pace. I mean,
the technology, anything is possible. I feel like it's possible

(33:30):
I could live to be one hundred and fifty years old.
I'm not even exaggerating. I've always thought about how sometimes
the simplest things can change the world. Anton van Lewenhook
was He was a Dutch scientist. He lived from sixteen

(33:50):
thirty two to seventeen twenty three, and he's known as
the father of micro biology. He pioneered microscopes. He created
the first real microscope, a high powered single lens microscope.
He actually made a lot of them. He was able
to grind glass with incredible expertise, very little things. And

(34:13):
you know what you think about this guy. You know,
he really started seeing microscopic stuff in the early sixteen seventies,
and he you know, it's like blood cells and microbes
and all this kind of stuff. And then you think that,

(34:37):
like when you think of a microscope, you think he's
got some apparatus there. But actually, here's what amazed me.
I watched this video the other day, and his microscopes
were not much more than just a couple of brass
plates that were twice the size of a matchbook, little

(34:58):
thing you hold your hand with a hole in the middle,
and he would grind these beautiful little lenses and place
it in that hole. And then he had a screw
that he could twist so that he could just kind
of adjust the distance a little bit. And that's all
it was. It was really just a magnifying glass. It

(35:19):
was just a little thing he could hold in his hand,
and he got that glass perfected just right so that
he could look. It's almost like a jeweler's loop and
he could see they say sometimes up to five hundred
times magnification. Now that may sound like incredibly simple technology,
but it was one hundred years before anybody improved on it.

(35:44):
And I mean this guy, you know, he started looking
at you know, mold and bees and lice, and but
then he started becoming interested in pond water. And so
he figured he'd just go out and start looking at algae.
And he collected water and he looked at it, and
guess what he sees little animals swimming around. Nobody had

(36:06):
ever seen that before. Supposedly he called them animal cules,
like molecules, but animal cules. And this changed the world. Eventually,
this changed the world because we understood, oh my god,
they're like an infinite number of tiny animals that live
all over everything and are responsible for disease and are

(36:31):
responsible for the whole function of biology. Really, you know,
how things are made and how things decay, and it's just,
you know, the whole world changed because this guy ground
this little lens about the size of a babe and

(36:51):
put it between these two brass plates and he just
got he just got everything right though, you know. And
there are people who actually make reproductions of these, and
I bought one, and when I get one, I'll tell
you about my experience with like how well it works. Hey, look,
when we come back. Two things, I have a follow
up on this, something about a place called Judicola Rock

(37:13):
in North Carolina that has just an amazing history that
ties into this. And also I found a little pamphlet
called the Luckiest Things in the World. What do you
mean by things? Well, I'll tell you when we come back.
I'm Joshua Pee Warren. You're listening to Strange Things on
the iHeartRadio and Coast to Coast i AM Paranormal Podcast Network,

(37:37):
and I will be right back. Welcome back to the

(38:17):
final segment of this edition of Strange Things of the
iHeartRadio and Coast to Coast AM Paranormal Podcast Network. I'm
your host, Joshua p Warren, and I meant to mention
when I was talking about the placebo stuff that I
actually did an episode of this show all about placebo power.

(38:41):
It's a good one if you're interested in this topic.
It's episode seventy seven of this podcast called Strange Things,
and it's titled how you can use placebo Power Now. Yeah,
go listen to that one. Yeah. I'm just astounded by
sometimes how the the simplest inventions can make a profound impact.

(39:04):
I'll tell an invention that I bought the other day.
You can go, I just went to Amazon. You can
buy these brightly colored rubber bands that have a big, long, curly,
squiggly pigtail, literally like the tail of a pig. You

(39:28):
know how pigs have a curly tail. It's like a big, long,
curly pigtail that hangs off of it. And you might
say to yourself, why in the heck are you gonna
buy a rubber band that's got like a big long,
curly piece hanging off like a pig's tail. Well, you

(39:51):
put it on your remote controls, and you are a
very it's very unlikely that you will lose your remote
control after that. I'm typing in right now, what does
a pigtail look like? I want to see how much
this actually looks like a pigtail. It just keeps showing

(40:15):
me like curls hair, all right, anyway, So it's try
this out, you know how it goes. I live in
a world full of technology. Most of us do their
remote controls everywhere, and remotes are just kind of like
they're just sort of like camouflaged in the sea of technology.
And plus you know it goes, they fall between the

(40:35):
cushions and everything. Get yourself a handful of these brightly
colored like practically for fluorescent rubber bands with the pigtail.
Pop it on that remote and you're probably never gonna
lose that remote unless you have like a real black
hole somewhere in your house. But getting back to the

(40:56):
marvels of technology now, of course, it's amazing that Anton
van lewin Hook discovered this in the early sixteen seventies,
and then again nobody perfected on it for one hundred years.
But there is a place in North Carolina where I
grew up called Judicolor Rock, and it's a rock that's

(41:19):
covered in these unexplained stone carvings. It's there in western
North Carolina. It's in the mountains of Jackson County, just
outside of Silva. It's a soap stone boulder covered with
a plethora of strange drawings that some archaeologists believe may
be two thousand to three thousand years old. Even the

(41:39):
Cherokee Indians consider the site ancient, predating their presence in
the area. The rock has been studied by researchers across
the world, but no one has ever deciphered the bizarre
petrick lifts on the stone or figured out who made them.
I studied these for years. I'm actually reading from my
own website. It's called Judicolor Rock. Judicolor is spelled j

(42:03):
u d a c u l l A j u
d a c u l l a Judicolor rock dot
com and I and all kinds of bizarre stuff happens
around this rock. And they're crazy theories about what these
markings may be because they don't seem to make any sense.
They don't look immediately recognizable. But when I saw them,

(42:24):
it reminded me of some of the samples of Pond
Creek water that I would see under a microscope, and
so I came up with this new theory that people
think is like some people think it's the craziest one
of all. But I saw some of these markings that
looked to me like an amba or various types of

(42:45):
die toms or worms or bacteria a hydra, and I thought,
is it possible that some of these Native Americans thousands
of years ago they figured out a way to see
microscopic life. And I ended up taking some sheets of
mica and micah is found all over that area. It's

(43:09):
a little clear, silicate mineral. It looks like a little
microscope slide. I took a couple of little pieces of
mica that are found in that area, took an arrowhead,
poked a hole in it, and Judicola roca is right
next to a creek. And if you get a little

(43:31):
drop of water on that hole, the hole will hold
the drop of water and it makes a little ends
and you can use it as a little microscope, just
like the kite or very very similar to the type
that Van Liemanhook was using. And I actually did a
video about this where you can see me looking at
micro organisms using nothing more than a couple of pieces

(43:54):
little sheets of mica with a hole and a drop
of water. And for some reason you have a problem
going to judocolor rock dot com. Just go to YouTube
and watch the little video report that I did about it.
It's less than five minutes long. Just search for Joshua P.
Warren and Judahicolor Rock again juduicul is spelled ju da

(44:14):
c u l l A Joshua P. Warren and Judaicolor
Rock and watch this report. It's plausible that thousands of
years ago Native Americans in western North Carolina may have
discovered how to see micro organisms and they were reproducing
them on this rock. Is that theory too crazy for you?
I don't know, but it's it's an amazing concept and

(44:37):
it absolutely works. So if you don't know about that theory,
go check it out. And I hope that somebody more
credible than me, who may be somebody from Western Carolina University,
will have the initiative to go over and reproduce what
I did and give an opinion on that. Okay, we've
jumped around all kinds of interesting territory tonight, but I

(45:00):
figured i'd finish up talking about one of my favorite topics,
which is luck I live here in Las Vegas. I
came across this little pamphlet about the luckiest things in
the world. Let's go through here and see what we've got.
Right off the bat, up a four leaf clover. Yes,
we all know about that one, don't we. Four leaf clovers.
It is said that for every five thousand three leaf clovers,

(45:23):
there was one four leaf clover mixed in. So you
can see how rare it is. If you place this
on your lapel, it is believed, according to tradition, that
a cloud of fairies will follow you around all day,
making sure that lucky things happened to you. Well, that

(45:43):
sounds nice, doesn't Did you know that elephants are considered
good luck. The upraised trunk of an elephant sprays luck
onto the world. This is seen all throughout Asia. People
will put elephants around doors, especially you know, at businesses.
And next we have jade. Jade is lucky because it

(46:08):
contains positive energy. They can be released to the world.
I've never heard about this before. If you get a
piece of jade, they say that you rub it and
you say out loud, the luckiest day that was ever
made king because I rubbed this jade. Well, I'm buying

(46:30):
me some jade now, I'm definitely trying that out before
I go to the casino next time. Here, Well, we
got next horse shoes. We know about that. It's said
that an upturned horse shoe acts as a vessel, a
container of some kind to collect good luck. So when

(46:51):
you need a little good luck, and obviously you see
people hanging over the door, but sometimes when you need
a little good luck, you just sort of tip it
on the side. In some cases, like it's a picture
full of luck juice and you poured the lout. I
never heard about that one before. I always knew that
you'd hang it up to hold the luck and keep

(47:13):
it there, but I never heard of taking it pouring
it out. Interesting visualization exercise there, Oh, rabbits, of course.
Well it says that every I never heard this, the
very first thing out of your your mouth every day

(47:36):
should be rabbit rabbit. This is some kind of a
tradition apparently that's supposed to bring gifts and presents your way. Well,
that's an easy one to test out, isn't it. Just
get up and say rabbit rabbit. Wishbones. You tug on
the wishbone of a bird, getting the larger piece gives
someone a wish. So we know how that works. Ladybugs.

(48:02):
A ladybug landing means great things are about to happen
in Turkey. In the country of Turkey, it's even called
the good luck bug, and it says when all the
insects get together and gamble, the lady bug is always
the big winner. And if a lady bug lands on
a slot machine, boy, you're really in good luck. Last,

(48:24):
we'll have the number seven. Well, we know about that
many lucky connotations for the number seven, and I actually
have three giant sevens hanging on the wall in my
living room. And as you know, I am very lucky
at gambling. There are seven colors in the spectrum, seven
notes in the musical scale seven seven seven. All right,

(48:45):
let's all get lucky. Let's take a deep breath and
focus on the good fortune tone. That's it for this
