Speaker 1 (00:18):
It's our podcast the cutting room floor.
Speaker 2 (00:21):
Let's talk about ghosts.
Speaker 3 (00:22):
I know your reference for ghosts is the Ghost of
Missus Muir show from the nineteen sixties.
Speaker 1 (00:27):
Hello, ma'am, how are you so?
Speaker 2 (00:29):
What was the premise of that? Again?
Speaker 1 (00:30):
He was an old sea captain who lived in his
old sea.
Speaker 4 (00:33):
Captain house as a ghost, as a ghost, and no
one would buy the house because he was habiting the host.
Speaker 2 (00:40):
He would appear wearing an our gold jumper and smoking.
Speaker 4 (00:44):
And he'd scare off all the people. And then along
came a young widow, attractive woman with some kids, and
she was quite attractive, and he was beguiled by her.
Speaker 2 (00:53):
And she kind of got him yep, and he she.
Speaker 4 (00:56):
Said, I'm not leaving here, I'm not putting up with you,
and he'd and they had this relationship.
Speaker 2 (01:02):
Than that.
Speaker 1 (01:03):
I was very platonic. It's just like a normal marriage.
But he would, but we offer you.
Speaker 3 (01:06):
And I used to speculate as to whether he'd watch
her in the shower that was never covered in the sitcom, when.
Speaker 1 (01:13):
She was sleeping. Would he yeah, so mom, if I
was alive, I.
Speaker 2 (01:17):
Would is that what he'd say? You make?
Speaker 1 (01:21):
He would? He would look at her she was.
Speaker 2 (01:22):
The thirties age as she was.
Speaker 1 (01:24):
He was very hunky. Who was the actor?
Speaker 2 (01:26):
He was a hunky old guy was he was.
Speaker 1 (01:28):
Hunky old guy be asleep and he just looked at her.
Speaker 2 (01:32):
What if she brought someone home?
Speaker 4 (01:34):
Well, that's goes back is covered in one of the episodes.
Speaker 3 (01:39):
A guy like the Brady Bunch when they were trying
to sell the house and the kids all dressed up and.
Speaker 2 (01:42):
Whoo, I can't buy this it's haunted.
Speaker 1 (01:47):
Was it like that the ghost?
Speaker 2 (01:48):
No, that was a person who's going to buy the house.
Speaker 4 (01:50):
Because the little Brady kids they came. Yeah, but the
ghost and missus miir forgotten the ghost? He did he
he'd just make windows open or a sudden race cloud
goes oh, and then ghost there was a guy, a
smooth guy doing any smooth moves, and he got scared because.
Speaker 1 (02:07):
You know, all of a sudden, a big rain cloud
and maybe he made his dick fall office. I know
that's what i'd do. That's what I do.
Speaker 4 (02:17):
If it was then me, would I would I say, oh, man,
who's been on the toilet for some time?
Speaker 3 (02:21):
Haven't you Let me get back to why I'm talking
about this, This paranormal investigators believe that ghosts, like humans,
have a limited time span, and a number of the
big famous ones are dying out when all the.
Speaker 2 (02:35):
Dat who's considered.
Speaker 3 (02:36):
They say, this is after startying decades of paranormal analysis.
They say, it's quite a shock to think many of
our once famous ghosts could be literally dying twice.
Speaker 1 (02:44):
I guess.
Speaker 3 (02:45):
The study included one hundred well known haunted spots with
reportings of sightings and spirits spanning back hundreds of years.
So the Project half Life suggests that sentient ghosts seem
to have a limited life span like humans. In simple terms,
the second law of Fermidine Namis tells us that energy
tends to disperse and degrade over time. So I would argue,
they say, and that our findings show ghosts conform to
(03:08):
the second law of thermodynamics and appear to run out
of energy. Ghosts, they say, are interacting less than they
were one hundred years ago. You're going to enjoy this
particular story, Brendan. One ghost in particular who they think
is yet to die at second death but is likely
to happen very soon, is the ghost of Winston Churchill.
(03:29):
The wartime PM is haunting the women's toilet on the
Queen Mary. According to a ghoul hunter. This singer and
ghost expert Brocard claims she saw the cigar loving statesman
stalking the hallways, lurking around the women's labs on the
ship when it was docked in California.
Speaker 1 (03:50):
What would he go there? Come on, well, you.
Speaker 3 (03:55):
Can't smoke in other places on ships, the toilets is
the only place you can do it. He could have
chosen the men's So he's still being seen occasionally, sure,
but not as often as he was. So these ghosts
are dying out.
Speaker 1 (04:09):
Do you believe in ghosts?
Speaker 2 (04:10):
No?
Speaker 1 (04:11):
Do you No?
Speaker 3 (04:13):
I don't believe that we know everything. I believe there's
some paranormal stuff, but I don't think there goes. Why
do ghost only appear at night? Why isn't it missus
KuPS who died two years ago?
Speaker 1 (04:24):
Yeah? I agree?
Speaker 3 (04:25):
Why do they choose to reveal themselves sometimes and not others?
And some places are not others? Why don't they appear
while we're on the radio here and go do a
time call? Why don't they do that?
Speaker 1 (04:37):
The ghost of eighties DJ?
Speaker 4 (04:38):
Yeah, I've never had a paranormal experience, although the closest
I've ever had. I worked at a resort down at
Charlotte's Pass is called the Chalet Hotel.
Speaker 3 (04:49):
Don't tell me that Winston Churchill was outside the lady's
toilet there too.
Speaker 4 (04:53):
Having a quiet smoke, and there's a at the start
of the season, I was down there with the new manager.
Speaker 1 (04:59):
So him and I this whole hotel.
Speaker 4 (05:01):
It's like it's like the Shining Yeah, it's very much
overlook hotel. So it's already got that spectral vibe going
about it. And so Greg and I, this is the manager,
we're just sort of, you know, having a few drinks
in the bar. And I told him I'd been there
the season before and the Chalet Hotel famously had a
ghost apparently called Muldoon who'd hung himself in the hotel
(05:27):
and a lot of people the year before.
Speaker 1 (05:29):
I said, oh, you know, have you seen Muldoon yet?
Speaker 2 (05:31):
You said, had you seen him?
Speaker 4 (05:32):
No?
Speaker 1 (05:33):
I hadn't.
Speaker 4 (05:33):
But like I used to smoke a lot of weed
back then as well, so there was a lot of
times and even when there was a lot of people
in the hotel, it was kind of creepy. And so
I was telling Greg about this, and the challenge was
the season before. It was to walk along the top
corridor of the hotel, which was very very long corridor
and dark and creepy at night, by yourself and walked
(05:55):
from the stairway to the end and back without running.
And that was the challenge, and no one would witness
you doing it. Was just a thing that you would
do yourself. So I told Greg about this and he
said we should do it, and I said, ah, you reckon, okay,
sure you know. And as only him and I in
the hotel, I'm always curious about this stuff. And he said,
you go first, and I said, of course, naturally, I'll
(06:16):
go first. So I went up the stairs and the
very ornate staircase and there's those little light sconces on
the stairs, so there's just soft lighting.
Speaker 1 (06:26):
So I walked to the top of the stairs and
I'm going on the.
Speaker 4 (06:28):
Corridor and I can still hear the music from the
bar downstairs. And as I'm walking along, halfway along rung
the corridor, the music suddenly dims to a point where
I can't really hear it, like and he was the
wishing of my pulse in my ear.
Speaker 1 (06:43):
And then as I met coming to the end, I
swear I could see a shape. I just I'm not
too sure. It's just and you know, when you're straining
your eyes.
Speaker 4 (06:52):
I'm thinking, and I look down and the walls gonce
lights they're not on anymore, and I'm going, hang on,
Light's gone off. And then I'm looking at the shape
and I said, okay, I've gone far enough.
Speaker 1 (07:05):
There was still another.
Speaker 4 (07:06):
I reckon twenty thirty feet till I got to the
end of the corridor, but it was so dark I
couldn't see it just this.
Speaker 1 (07:11):
So I've turned around and started walking back walking because
I have to run one And then.
Speaker 4 (07:15):
All of a sudden, I'm going, bug of this and
I'm now I'm running and I've gone screaming down the staircase.
Speaker 1 (07:20):
And then something's jumped out. It's Lady the guy Greg.
Speaker 4 (07:24):
He was waiting at the middle landing to scare the
hell out of me, but he didn't expect.
Speaker 1 (07:28):
Me coming down the stairs.
Speaker 2 (07:30):
So quickly is he switching the lights on and off.
Speaker 1 (07:32):
This is the thing.
Speaker 4 (07:33):
We both ran into each other, little bit fell down
the stairs, this big ornate staircase, and we're laughing so much.
Speaker 1 (07:39):
About it, and I said, yeah, good on you. Your dickhead.
And he said, oh man, you scared the shit out
of me and we're just doing that.
Speaker 4 (07:44):
And I said, good work turning the lights off, and
he went, I didn't turn the lights off.
Speaker 2 (07:48):
And whose shape was it? What is it him?
Speaker 4 (07:50):
No, that was at the end of the corridor. He
was waiting at the land. I don't know what it was,
but here's the thing. He's the thing the light. I
turned around, said, you switched the lights off. And I
looked at the staircase and the lights were back on.
But then I think were the lights on all the time?
And it just it was the power of suggestion. It
was really.
Speaker 2 (08:09):
Oh so that doesn't answer whether there was something there
or not.
Speaker 1 (08:13):
I think a lot of it as I get older.
Speaker 4 (08:15):
My at that time, if you'd asked me, I was
nineteen back then, if you asked me, I would say, yeah,
I believe in ghosts.
Speaker 1 (08:22):
I think it's more a power of suggestion in your mind.
Speaker 2 (08:25):
Maybe you're smoking the dope now.
Speaker 1 (08:27):
I'm off the weed now, of course. Yeah, yeah, yeah, Okay, kids,
get safe for today.
