You ever go to one of those Sportsman shows were there are animal heads on the walls and all sorts of weird meat and jerky to sample?  What if there was a secret, deep underground convention for only the most extreme hunters and food connoisseurs?  The convention is filled with patrons with only the most sophisticated pallets, adventurous appetites, or sub-par IQs; those who are no longer satisfied with a meager burger, or average steak.  I’m referring to a very specific group of individuals. I’m referring to The Cryptid Eaters. This week we take a look at people that have allegedly dined on the flesh of the most mysterious beasts this world has to offer. Would you taste of the meat of the mighty Mokele Mbembe?  Are you brave enough to snake on the cooked leg of the dreaded J’ba Fofi?  In these circles, it’s eat or be eaten.  Which side will you be on?

thank you for listening!

Speaker 1 (00:24):
What's up everybody. Thanks for listening to the wodcast. We
hope you're doing good. Mike. How are you, buddy.

Speaker 2 (00:30):
I'm cold and I'm tired and I'm old.

Speaker 1 (00:33):
Yeah, it seems like a long winter, Like it didn't
get cold right away, but it's gotten extremely cold and
it feels like it's never gonna go away. Yeah.

Speaker 2 (00:42):
Fuck winter, man, I'm so sick of this ship.

Speaker 1 (00:45):
Yeah, we need to.

Speaker 2 (00:46):
I need to find a new place to live. But
apparently winter has claimed the South now too, So I
guess I'll have to go, like to Mexico or something.

Speaker 1 (00:55):
Oh, there you go.

Speaker 2 (00:57):
Maybe I'll just keep going. I'll end up in like
Argentina or something. Does Argentina have winters? I need a
place that doesn't have winters. Maybe I just need to
move to a desert.

Speaker 1 (01:08):
No, the desert gets freezing at night, dude.

Speaker 2 (01:10):
Yeah that's true, and I like trees too much.

Speaker 1 (01:13):
Just sunny California there's like, you know stuff thing.

Speaker 2 (01:17):
Yeah, but from there there's also lots of fires. Earthquakes
always been that way. Yeah, we had one the other
day that was it was short and small. But like
I said, my house is leter on a fault line,
so I get them like twice a week, but this
one was It felt like a giant ran across our
roof from one side of the house to the other.

Speaker 1 (01:35):
It was just blown all the way across the house.

Speaker 2 (01:38):
It felt weird, It sounds awesome.

Speaker 1 (01:42):
It's funny because what happens, I'll go, oh, and then
like whatever, one of my children heard it. They'll go, yep,
I felt that, And about half the time they're just like,
what are you talking about. I know there'll be stuff
like on a shelf moving still, and I'd be like,
you guys didn't feel that.

Speaker 2 (01:56):
They're like, nope, fucking kids, they're immune. Today they've got
earthquake community.

Speaker 1 (02:02):
Oh yeah, Well, we're gonna talk about something pretty weird tonight.
But before we get into that, I wanted to talk
to you, Mike about some pretty recent news that seems
to still be happening. I asked the good old trustee
chet GPT, how many plane crash has there been this
year so far? It says there's been eleven. Now I

(02:25):
can't help but notice that ever since these drones came
and apparently went. I don't know if you guys know this.
We were talking before the show started and I wanted
to see if the drones were still around or what's
going on, because after a week or two it seems
like it fizzled out. And the first thing that I
came up is, just like.

Speaker 2 (02:44):
All things in the news, they harp on it NonStop
for like two to three weeks, and then when there's
no resolution, they're just like, Okay, we're gonna stop talking
about it now, Like the missing the missing plane all
those years ago. All that shit always always gets Like
the fucking when UAPs or first a thing. They were

(03:09):
talking about it NonStop and then it just fizzled out.
And then when they started doing the things in Congress again,
they're like, oh my god, UFOs are real again, and
then it fizzles out. Then oh my god, there's still real,
and then it fizzles out.

Speaker 1 (03:25):
Hmm. Ain't that the truth? They pick what you care about,
they pick what's on your mind. One of the first
things I came across was this report from NBC New York.
I'll put the this link in the show notes so
you guys can see for yourself, but says there's a
statement from the Trump administration following new sightings of drones

(03:47):
after the FAA lifted a temporary ban on drones, and
this statement in part says this was not the enemy.
The White House says most mystery drones over New Jersey
were authorized, So I guess that answers that that all that.

Speaker 2 (04:03):
Was arg doesn't though, because you had the fucking dude
the Senator being like, these are Chinese drones. They're they're
coming from a mothership off the coast of New Jersey, Like,
come on, it's I mean it very likely. Is that's accurate?
That it that it's ours and and it makes perfect sense.

(04:27):
But it's just the whole fucking thing. It's it's it's
like Roswell all over again. We've got a flying disc.
No we don't. It was a balloon. No, it wasn't
a balloon. It was Project Mogul. It's all malarkey.

Speaker 1 (04:42):
Can you imagine going through that like at the time,
like getting the newspaper one morning, being interested in the
stuff you're interested in and just seeing UFO, you know,
recovered by the military, like this is it period, And
then the next day they're like, sorry, just kidding, we.

Speaker 2 (04:56):
Thought what we thought was a flying disc was actually
a balloon. Because we're fucking morons.

Speaker 1 (05:02):
Yeah, we mistake the weather balloon for an alien craft
from outside of our solar system.

Speaker 2 (05:09):
Yeah, and that's that's our military. So you know, the
the the military intelligence coming out and be like, hey,
like if like, let's really think about that for a second.
If it if it was really military intelligence that was
that was, you know, investigating all of this, and and

(05:32):
and you've got guys in the field that are doing
investigating that can't tell the difference between a flying disc
and a fucking balloon, then you got issues or you're
doing a whole dis info thing, which which is more likely?

Speaker 1 (05:47):
Yeah, I I I love that about the whole roswell crash.
It's it's either you're lying or you guys really couldn't
tell an alien spacecraft from a weather plon, So which
is it? And they just I mean, we were talking
about it in the hangout, this is starting then uptil
now they don't They don't answer, they don't have to answer,

(06:07):
they don't offer explanations, they don't give a shit who
had pisses off. They just do what they're gonna do.
But I was just wondering, you know, maybe you know,
I kind of expected our government to say, like, yeah,
those were ours, that was gonna be the next the
next thing, you know, they're gonna skip over the fact
that they said they weren't ours. They're gonna just fly
right past that that they were lying. But maybe there's

(06:29):
a lot of different shit going on at one time.
And do you think anything about these drones, if it
was ours or not, has anything to do with the
airplane crashes that are happening like it like you've always
had a theory about what's gonna happen when disclosure comes,
it's not going to be what we think it is.
Do you think that this is the next step you
said there's going to be attacked possibly and they're gonna

(06:51):
blame it on drones. Do you think this is the
start of that or is there any connection at all?

Speaker 2 (06:55):
I don't know. Maybe, I mean it is kind of
weird that, but but then again, crashes happen all the time,
and you gotta you gotta normally, under normal circumstances, we're
not gonna hear about, like unless it's like a super
tragic plane crash, Like we're not gonna hear about your
single engine planes crashing or anything like. It's it's always

(07:16):
the big airliners and and shit like that. But when
you've got a fucking helicopter crashing into a plane like
that's that's wild, man. And especially like you watch the video,
the plane was all lit up, air traffic control is
bringing in and it didn't look like that helicopter even
had lights on, and there was plenty of time before

(07:36):
it hit like it was on a straight trajectory for
this plane. It it's so weird, man.

Speaker 1 (07:42):
Almost a little too straight up a trajectory for that plane,
if you ask me.

Speaker 2 (07:47):
Yeah, yeah, So again, either there's some shenanigans afoot, or
you've got the most inept people on earth piloting your
military aircraft.

Speaker 1 (07:57):
Yeah, that's bizarre. I've seen a lot of people who
are you know, on the Internet, of course, so I'd
take it with more than a grain of salt. They
could be wearing a fucking costume from a surplus store.
But there's more than a few people who are claiming
to be military air force that are saying that just
no way, there's no way that would happen. That just
would not happen. An airplane, a passenger fucking plane is

(08:18):
not small. It's very loud. They're in a fucking helicopter.
I mean, the helicopter has like a windshield, for Christ's sake,
they can see what's in front of them physically. Why
would they be doing an exercise near an airport at
night time? Does that make any sense at all? For real?
Like you say, all the time, they got places to
do shit like that.

Speaker 2 (08:38):
Yeah, that's That's always been kind of a weird thing
for me. When they do military exercise in like a
populated area, why are you like they in Florida a
few years ago they were having low flying helicopters flying around.
I can't remember what city it was, maybe it might
have been Miami, but they're flying low, like over the

(09:00):
buildings and stuff and not telling people that they were
doing these exercises. People are just looking out and there's
fucking like soldiers in a helicopter going by their fucking
window with their guns and shit. It's crazy, man.

Speaker 1 (09:17):
That's so crazy. Yeah, that's scary. I actually had a
buddy who had a helicopter and he offered to, you know,
fucking take me up and go find with him all
the time. And I said, fuck no, But I asked
him about that. You know, what about flying low flying stupid?
How much trouble you can get in, and he was.
He was a pretty big knucklehead, but he was like,

(09:37):
absolutely not, dude, They'll fucking put you in federal jail.
You don't fuck with that shit at all. That's the
I mean, he's like, they can see what type of
person you are. They won't give you a license just
because your attitude. So doing that shit strictly forbidden. So
I don't see civilians flying there helicopters over people's houses.

Speaker 2 (09:55):
Yeah, right, imagine that.

Speaker 1 (09:57):
Yeah, yeah, it just seems strange that, like, even like
I've seen a couple of pictures that are claiming to
be from the aftermath of the Philadelphia Delphia plane crash.
It just there's a crater in the street. It just
doesn't look like an airplane crash. I'm not an aviation expert.
I don't know. Maybe they had shitty streets, Maybe there was.

Speaker 2 (10:13):
A fucking wait, wait, what state was it.

Speaker 1 (10:16):
It's Philadelphia, I believe, wasn't it.

Speaker 2 (10:18):
Dude, Pennsylvania is notorious for shitty streets.

Speaker 1 (10:21):
Oh yeah, yeah. Maybe because it's just it looks like
the whole planet there. It's weird.

Speaker 2 (10:29):
Maybe he did.

Speaker 1 (10:30):
Maybe he did. I mean the explosion that they show. Dude,
I mean again, I don't know shit about airplanes. I
don't know how much fuel was on that thing. From
what I understand, it was in the air for five
minutes before it crashed, before it went down, So there's
obviously problems from the get go, but that explosion, it
just is so huge. I encourage you guys. I'll see

(10:53):
if I can find some of the footage from people's
ring cameras that are so far away, is shake their house.
It just seems weird. You know. I'm not making light
of it at all, or to anybody who lost their
lives in any of these tragedies. It just that's as
it seems like an elevated amount of these things. And
it just made me think of these drones. Maybe maybe
this is the next step that you talked about, or

(11:13):
the progression in this weird plan of of whatever's happening.
Because something's happening. I think something's happening. I don't know
it does.

Speaker 2 (11:21):
It just seems like it seems weird to me that
all this stuff is coming together, you know, like the
the all these disclosure meetings, people are actually taking taking
it seriously. The the UFO topic that is, and it
just it does seem seem weird to uh, to see

(11:42):
the drone stuff going on and then all the you know,
like cover up and now you've got the new administration saying, yeah,
they were us the whole time. But then also, what
if they weren't. And we know that Trumpet is, uh,
he likes to and he's also known for exaggeration. Is

(12:04):
it possible that he's just putting it out there that
they are ours because they don't know whose they are.
I mean, let's be honest, there ares, but what if.

Speaker 1 (12:15):
Hm very interesting, especially I mean if the current administration
is gonna admit that they are ares. It's strange to
say that because there was like fifteen twenty five different
kinds of these drones and light formations and stuff. There
was a lot of stuff going on. I think for
any one element to claim responsibility is a little weird.
But I kind of feel like with the way things

(12:37):
are going now, it just seems like all these explanations. Dude,
like when you're a kid and you fucking watch these
old specials and they show UFO footage and you see
some fucking guy in of suits start talking about swamp
gas and you feel insulted and you say, why am
I expected to believe that? It's just silly. I feel

(12:57):
like that's how it is. It's swamp gas out of control,
and it's we've reached a point to where almost all
conspiracies makes more sense than the explanations were being offered.
Everything that we're being told seems unbelievable now everything.

Speaker 2 (13:14):
Yeah, I've said I've joked about it before on the show.
But when I first when I was really getting into UFOs,
like I always had an interest and I always read it,
but like when I got into college, I think I
really started investigating like the cases and and the cover
ups and all that, and I got really deep into
UFOs in college. But I remember just thinking about, like,

(13:39):
why won't the government just say that they're here, and
why won't they just admit to it? And now we've
got the government saying that there's things they don't know,
and I don't trust the fucking government, And I'm like,
fuck you, Like that's what I twenty years ago, that's
what I wanted, And now I'm I'm just like, you
guys are so full of shit. I don't believe a

(14:00):
goddamn word you're saying, yep, and and you can. You
can bring in any amount of high caliber witnesses to
talk about what they're seeing. I don't necessarily believe them,
like exactly, Like, I think maybe they are describing some
sort of thing they saw, but I think they know
what it was, and I don't know, man Like, I

(14:24):
just feel like it's it is all leading somewhere, Like
we're getting these little bread crumbs we're getting we're getting
these disclosure hearings, we're getting these high level witnesses, and
then we're getting plane crashes, we're getting weird drone sightings,
and I feel like there are a little bread crumbs.

Speaker 1 (14:43):
Don't forget where We're getting sightings of people with Jeff
packs on and proove.

Speaker 2 (14:48):
Oh yeah, you know, yeah, flying flying people, pre pack people.

Speaker 1 (14:53):
Invisible predator like creatures.

Speaker 2 (14:56):
Yeah, dude, there's a trail of bread crumbs. And it's
and it all down to mole men. Nobody saw it coming.
It's all fucking molemen. It's not the lizard people. The
mole men. The molemen have secretly been warming their way
into our society without us even knowing. They're the ones
that started the whole David Ike is a moleman. Just

(15:20):
just strown it out there. He knows.

Speaker 1 (15:23):
I completely believe it. Have you seen those videos where
these streamer kids are like taking off their headphones and
then shaving their head and you can see this weird,
misshapen dent in their head. Have you seen that?

Speaker 2 (15:33):
I have not. But they're mole people.

Speaker 1 (15:35):
What you haven't seen that? Okay, hold on, guys, we're
gonna I have not. Yes, you are correct. I think
these are the mole people. And I'm gonna have to
send you something. And I would love your reaction to
this now, because there was a graphic made many years
ago of what like humans will look like in two
hundred years, and uh boy, we're on our way. I am.

Speaker 2 (15:57):
In most of those cases, it's just their hair get indented,
but that first one was fucked up, and that was
probably the fact that he has a fucked up skull
and rather than headphones.

Speaker 1 (16:07):
Well. See, that's the thing though, is that it started
because somebody got challenged to shave their head so they
they didn't know their head looked like that, and then
other streamers did it. So there's a couple in that
clip where it looks like people's hairs. But the ones
I'm talking about is where people fucking shave their head
and there it's like more than a handful of people's

(16:27):
heads look like this. It's weird. I thought you'd be
a little bit more mortified. Sorry, guys from Mike's lacks, now, yeah,
I was just.

Speaker 2 (16:35):
Like, yeah, whatever, guy's indented head, fuck you, weird head?

Speaker 1 (16:45):
Oh my god. Okay, all right, let's get to what
we're gonna talk about tonight, Mike, what is.

Speaker 2 (16:50):
The we're not talking I thought that's what we were
We're not talking about weird deformed skulls. Oh god, I
feel like I've been duped.

Speaker 1 (17:03):
We know we're gonna talk about something weird, all right,
but not weird heads. We're gonna talk about weird diets.
What's the weirdest thing that you have ever eaten? Mike?

Speaker 2 (17:13):
A weird head? It was delightful, if not a bit crunchy.

Speaker 1 (17:18):
Oh no, it could be taken a multitude away, sir.

Speaker 2 (17:23):
And all of them are accurate.

Speaker 1 (17:29):
Man, Mike had some hard times when you first started.

Speaker 2 (17:35):
Hard times are the best times, MATEO.

Speaker 1 (17:43):
Oh man, it's kind of hard to say what's weird
food because there's so many cultures that just you know,
they do what they do, they eat what's available to them.
But for you, Mike, in your regular normal American cuisine,
what's the most unusual thing you've you've eaten? I don't know.

Speaker 2 (18:02):
I don't really eat a lot of weird stuff, Like
I guess maybe like kangaroo. I've eaten a kangaroo before
and it was really good. Yeah, it was actually, honestly,
it was one of the best meats I've had. Wow,
it was not it was a kangaroo kabab and it

(18:23):
was so fucking good.

Speaker 1 (18:25):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (18:25):
I've eaten an alligator. That's that's pretty good. Mm hmmm.
I don't know. Other than that, Like I'd say, it's.

Speaker 1 (18:33):
All normal shit, right, And those things that you listed,
those things are very common in other places in the world.
And we've all watched like the old traveling cooking shows
that used to be all over the place in the
mid two thousands where we all got introduced to the
millennium egg and and all the all the weird stuff

(18:55):
that people eat all over the world that's weird to us,
and not weird that's probably the wrong way to say,
but just different to us. And I kind of love that.
I love other cultures. I love learning about other cultures.
That's like you described it one time. That's the spice
of life is all the different cultures and practices and

(19:16):
art and music of people from all over the world.
But there is some things that I can't look past.
And I came across the video on YouTube that was
solely about people eating cryptids.

Speaker 2 (19:29):
I remember hearing about tribe in the Congo eating Mochilium bembe,
hunting Mochilium bembe and eating the flesh. I think in
that classic dinosaur vhs that you and I both wore
out as kids, I think that might have been where
they were talking about it.

Speaker 1 (19:48):
Yes, And one of the many expeditions to the Congo
in the fifties and search for Mochalium bembe, one group
that came back reported a story told to them by locals,
and this is that story. They tribe, a tribe of
people saw a Mocalium membe in a lake, and they
harassed it and kept it busy while others built like

(20:09):
a barricade to keep it in that part of the river.
And when they did, they all backed off and just
launched a spear attack on it and ended up killing it.
The story ghost is that they cooked and ate it,
but anybody who ate it got very, very sick and
then died. But apparently according to the tribes people around there,
that that kinda doesn't really stop them from eating the

(20:31):
mochalium bembe if they can. It's not that they're poisonous.
They they see it that. It was more of like
that one was something was wrong with that mochalium membe.

Speaker 2 (20:40):
They just they got one that was a little rotten.

Speaker 1 (20:43):
Yeah, maybe it was on its last legs.

Speaker 2 (20:46):
Yeah, had some gross infection.

Speaker 1 (20:50):
Yeah, Mochalium herb dogs gross. Yeah, but that one. I
didn't expect to see Mokalu membe on the list. I mean,
like that, I'm sure somebody's gonna make up something like
that when it comes to people, uh in rural places, tribes,
folks and stuff like that, there's a lot of people
trying to make them sound bad. And maybe it was

(21:11):
something like that, but I don't know that's that was
what I didn't want to see on a list because
it's clearly that's clearly not a normal animal, right, I mean,
but maybe for the vocals, it's something that they grew
up with they've seen all the time, so it's just
like any other animals. If maybe it's only weird to us, right.

Speaker 2 (21:28):
I mean, I would say a Mochelium membe in general
would be weird to us, and then eating one that's
that's a whole other thing.

Speaker 1 (21:36):
Yeah, that's that's a little rough. I don't think I
would eat I don't know. Maybe I would if I
had grown up with them being in the rivers all
around me all the time.

Speaker 2 (21:43):
Oh no, you fuck that. If someone's like, hey, here's
a Mochuelium benbe steak, I'm eating the shit out of it.

Speaker 1 (21:48):
Would you really though even know that?

Speaker 2 (21:50):
Yeah?

Speaker 1 (21:50):
Oh yeah?

Speaker 2 (21:51):
How many times you're gonna be able to eat a bronosaurus?

Speaker 1 (21:54):
Oh?

Speaker 2 (21:54):
Man? Like yeah, I got to eat a goddamn dinosaur.
That's like like that. I feel like that's something only
billionaires get to say. And if I got the chance,
I would say that I would eat that with my
pinky extended the entire fucking time. Yeah, you're goddamn right,
it would be. It would be a delight. I don't

(22:14):
even care if it tasted like shit, I'm eating a
fucking dinosaur.

Speaker 1 (22:19):
Yeah, I might have to do that, but I don't know.
I would probably fucking throw a blood and die within
ten minutes of that. It would be a death sentence
for me or the next one on the list. Mike,
this might be a surprise to you, but it's one
of your favorites. The Jaba fo.

Speaker 2 (22:35):
Fee Is that the giant spider?

Speaker 1 (22:37):
Yes there?

Speaker 2 (22:38):
Yeah, dude, fucking pitroseas son of a bitch.

Speaker 1 (22:41):
Oh see, I drove the line on insects, even cryptid insects.
I'm I would not eat an insect. It was crypto's wologist.
Bill Gibbons was in the Congo investigating Meklea Membe, and
he also asked the locals about the Jabba Foe fee
and they said that they were considered a delicacy and
that they used to be pretty common up until the

(23:03):
early two thousands, and they believe that they were just
basically hunted to a low number because they were so
often eaten.

Speaker 2 (23:11):
Yeah, dude, you cook that shit up. It fluffs up
like fucking lobster meat.

Speaker 1 (23:16):
Probably something that side in there.

Speaker 2 (23:18):
Man. Yeah, I actually I hate lobsters, so I wouldn't
enjoy it at all. But I mean with those legs,
those are like fucking kink crab legs right there, except
you know, giant.

Speaker 1 (23:30):
I have no problem with most seafood, but I just
will not eat a bottom feeder. When I was a kid,
I used to love catfish. I will not eat catfish now.
I'm not gonna eat something that fucking cleans the bottom
of a fucking like with its mouth. I'm not eating
the cockroaches of the ocean, thank you very much.

Speaker 2 (23:49):
I'm not a big I've just recently started coming around
to fish, but I'm not a big crustacean guy. I
hate shrimp. I don't like lobster tail. Crab legs are good,
but it's a lot of work for a little, very
little payout. So I don't eat crab legs. Not a
not a crayfish person. But I do like clams though,

(24:13):
Steamed clams with butter.

Speaker 1 (24:15):
Fuck yeah I do that.

Speaker 2 (24:16):
Shit's so good.

Speaker 1 (24:17):
Oh yeah, yeah. That's one thing I can't eat as clams,
And it's a texture thing, and I like. I love
clam chowder. I'll eat a bowl of clam chowder, but
I won't eat one clam.

Speaker 2 (24:26):
The texture doesn't really like if so long as they're steamed.
I guess that that's not as bad like raw clams.
That's a whole different can of worms.

Speaker 1 (24:36):
Oh, thank you there, yeah, no, thank you. That's that's
probably what Jaba fo Fee tastes like. Was like a
big giant strip of raw clam.

Speaker 2 (24:47):
Just imagine the hunting expeditions to hunt down these giant
spiders though. That's gotta be like, provided that they exist.
That's fucking terrifying. Like this thing is a giant goddamn spider, Like,
isn't it dog size or something?

Speaker 1 (25:01):
Yeah, and imagine how quiet they are too. That's got
to be awful. Those things are just dropping on fools
in the jungle, biting their neck, yeah, dude, stabbing their
nipples with their pointy legs. Yeah, disappear. Yeah, that's how
you know that somebody's been attacked by job of pope.
They've got to bite on the neck and their nipples

(25:21):
are gone.

Speaker 2 (25:23):
It tweaked right off.

Speaker 1 (25:26):
So look out where multiple shirts if you're in the congo,
or or just.

Speaker 2 (25:32):
Bring pasties you'll be all right.

Speaker 1 (25:34):
Yeah, a couple of band aids on those puppies, get
some of that like football player tape that they put
on their wrists, but big xes, they don't like that
symbol so that I'll war them off to so all
the cryptids. Mike, what what would you expect to be
on this list? What do you what would you like
not be something?

Speaker 2 (25:52):
Is there anybody that hunts the Jersey Devil purely for
the purpose of eating him?

Speaker 1 (25:57):
God? I wish, but I don't think so. That's like
a one time thing. It was a special case. It's
not something that where there's a population to be hunted.

Speaker 2 (26:06):
That's why you just hunt for the one. You hunt
that one single devil down and eat it.

Speaker 1 (26:14):
There probably is. There's just like some twenty year old
guy who's gotten this old, wrinkled piece of paper in
the mail and he's like, shit, I gotta go in
the woods like once every six months with a shotgun
and stand there for four hours at least, or I'm
gonna lease my fucking leads devil hunting license that's been
in my family for two hundred years.

Speaker 2 (26:31):
Yeah, you don't want to lose that license. It's hard
to get back.

Speaker 1 (26:34):
Yeah. Part of the deal is that he has to
eat it when he catches it.

Speaker 2 (26:37):
Well, yeah, they don't. They don't really, they don't give
hunting passes for the Jersey devil for sport. It's it's
purely for food.

Speaker 1 (26:46):
That's the only way they could get past the red tape,
right right, you gotta eat that shit. But I definitely
expected like some type of an aquatic animal. I remember
the way back when we started the show, Like all
the websites I'd look at for information and research, there's
always some sort of fucking report of some weird, unidentifiable

(27:07):
type of fish with a photo of something that looked
god awful, and they always ended with uh, but the
fishermen ate it.

Speaker 2 (27:14):
Well, yeah, it's they're hungry, man, they're hungry.

Speaker 1 (27:17):
Then catch a fish, like, wait, don't eat the mutant thing. Like,
let's say it's an alien. Let's say it's a mutant.
Let's say it's deformed. You know, probably skip that one.

Speaker 2 (27:25):
Yeah, but what if it looked really good?

Speaker 1 (27:27):
It can't. I saw the photo. It didn't look good.

Speaker 2 (27:32):
Well, you weren't there, just like at a photo could
have been way different in person.

Speaker 1 (27:37):
What if it was whispering, who can eat me? Yeah?

Speaker 2 (27:40):
Yeah, I'm delicious, delius, go on give me a taste.
You're like, well, he's saying he's delicious, guys, maybe we
should give it a try.

Speaker 1 (27:50):
My flavors bred your wildest.

Speaker 2 (27:52):
D Yeah, I'm delightful and buttery. Buttery sprinkled me with
dyl and shut shut, yeah, yes, yes, yeah.

Speaker 1 (28:02):
Well here's here's one that I didn't fucking expect to
fucking hear about being eaten as a fife. It's a
ten foot tall, bigfoot like creature out of China, and
it's common knowledge that they kill and eat people, So
they fucking kill and eat them. There's been plenty of
cases where caught a fife, they catch it, call it
a fife, and like I said, ten foot tall, there's

(28:24):
no mistaking this with any other fucking primate. And they
eat those fuckers as revenge, as revenge.

Speaker 2 (28:32):
That's that's pretty brutal. Do they eat their brains?

Speaker 1 (28:36):
Ooh probably not, Like I know that in most cultures,
eating the brains of of uh, anything that's people like
is not good. I know that there's some places where
they do eat brains, for sure. There's many dishes that
include brains, but most of them. Yeah, dude, man, eat.

Speaker 2 (28:54):
The brains, eat the heart, and then you can eat
the soul.

Speaker 1 (28:57):
Ew No, I'm I'm I won't eat the heart of anything.
The worst thing I I used to do.

Speaker 2 (29:03):
Dear heart is awesome. Really, yeah, it's so good.

Speaker 1 (29:07):
What does it taste like? Look at Mike's an animal,
you're eating your hearts?

Speaker 2 (29:12):
Yeah delicious, man.

Speaker 1 (29:14):
What does it taste like like venison? Like?

Speaker 2 (29:18):
Yeah, okay, so like your pant, your pant, fry it
with with some onions and peppers. So fucking good, dude,
some butter. Hell.

Speaker 1 (29:28):
Yeah, I used to love liver worst. That's about it.
That's as odd as I get. I love. I used
to love liver worst on crackers as a little kid.

Speaker 2 (29:38):
I've I've never even have had liver worst.

Speaker 1 (29:40):
Really, I think you'd love it, dude, I think you'd
love it.

Speaker 2 (29:44):
Really.

Speaker 1 (29:44):
Yeah. It's cold liver worst from like right out of
your fridge. Put it on some saltines. Fucking delicious. And
I never grew up eating up. My mom would give
me that as a kid. But like my family, we
wouldn't cook liver or eat liver like that. Like my
dad tried to. He's like, I've had that shit prepared
every way you can think, and I just can't eat liver.
Hub It's not my thing. My dad would eat anything

(30:06):
he had, like a cast iron stomach. You would eat anything.
He would definitely be one of these dudes fucking killing
a fife and eating it if it killed his cousin.
My dad, the cryptid eater. Okay, the next one that
I have.

Speaker 2 (30:19):
Oh, that needs to be a TV series. And it's
just someone writing the it's it's their remembrances of stories
their father told them when when they were growing up,
and they're just like writing the memoirs of their father's
cryptid adventures.

Speaker 1 (30:35):
M hm.

Speaker 2 (30:36):
And every episode is a different story.

Speaker 1 (30:38):
Yeah, it just ends up being like the finales. It's
not that exciting. It's crypted still exist and the government
has to get rid of them, but their dad is
an entity that can eat anything, so they just send
him to him.

Speaker 2 (30:49):
Yeah, and then in the end he just the whole
thing ends with him taking his bib and hanging it
down a hook in the garage and just going in
and closing the door behind him. And that's how the
series ends. You're like, what did he retire? What? What's
going on?

Speaker 1 (31:04):
He ate him?

Speaker 2 (31:05):
Is he ever going to eat another cryptid?

Speaker 1 (31:09):
He ate himself?

Speaker 2 (31:10):
Yeah, that's that's how it ends. He eats himself. He
hangs up his bib, goes into the bathroom, climbs in
the tub and ate himself.

Speaker 1 (31:20):
Dun dun, duh. Cliffhanger of the Year. You're getting a
Nobel Pierced Prize, Mike for your story.

Speaker 2 (31:26):
Hell yeah, the first author to ever get a Nobel
piece prize for their bullshit story. I'm in, I'm I
love it.

Speaker 1 (31:34):
It's groundbreaking and life changing for all of humanity.

Speaker 2 (31:38):
I believe that about my story with all my heart.

Speaker 1 (31:43):
I believe gave the two t Noko snake of legend
from Japan uh after looking it up and reading about
it a little bit. It's doesn't seem like it would
be too weird, but it's got a weird flat body.
It almost looks like a like a flat piece the wood,
and there's like it's mid body gets flat and wide,
and it has a notably diamond shaped head. And it's

(32:06):
one of these creatures that I mean, it doesn't fucking
steal children or fly through the air. It's just not
seen anymore. And and even in the olden days it
was not seen often and noted to be a legend then.
But there's a snake hunter from Japan named Toku Take
and he said that he had come across that legendary
snake two times in his life, and both times he

(32:29):
ate it.

Speaker 2 (32:31):
Both times I saw it, both times, I ate it.
Fucked as snake? Did you make boots out of its skin?
At least?

Speaker 1 (32:39):
I keep I hope he did. I hope he did.
I know that there was another report of somebody seeing these, uh,
these types of snakes in markets, like in where they
prepare fresh food, so like there'll be a tank for this,
you know fish this. I don't know if you ever
been to a Chinese or there's a I go to
a Korean fish that's near me, and it's all fresh

(33:01):
living fish, so you can have them like cut it
up and fry it right there. It's pretty awesome. But
they they said they've seen them in markets like that,
this snake specifically, so they it is known to be around,
but it's basically legendary. But the one person who has
has seen it is eating it, even the person who
saw it at that market. I believe they had them
cook them, two of them, one deep fright in, one

(33:23):
boiled ew.

Speaker 2 (33:25):
Why would you ever eat it? Boiled meat? Gross?

Speaker 1 (33:30):
I love boiled meat. How dare dear boil some chicken?
You season a shit out of it, boil some chicken,
shredd it, put it in pasta.

Speaker 2 (33:39):
Well, if you're shredding it, that's that's one thing.

Speaker 1 (33:42):
Yeah, I'm not gonna eat a blob of boiled meat.

Speaker 2 (33:44):
No, yeah, Like you just throw a chicken breast and
some boiling water and like, oh yeah, I'm gonna tear
Oh that's fucking gross.

Speaker 1 (33:51):
That is awful.

Speaker 2 (33:53):
Yeah, yeah, it is awful. Why would you do that?

Speaker 1 (33:57):
The next one I have is uh from a gentleman
named George Steller. He was somebody who went on an
expedition to the far east of Russia in search of
animals that were unknown to the rest of the world.
He'd heard of so many strange animals there, and he
discovered quite a few of these animals for the that
he revealed to the rest of the world. And there

(34:18):
are actually some that were proven to be true there
that actually existed there and there one of them that
he had heard of that he never saw himself, was
called the stellar sea wolf. I don't know why he
called it a sea wolf. They described it as being
like a long, slender whale. But he said that the
people in that area often ate it, and they said

(34:41):
that they would eat it all except the fat, because
the fat would guarantee you diarrhea.

Speaker 2 (34:47):
Oh shit, literally, But.

Speaker 1 (34:52):
I apparently it's it's it's of a type of sea
creature that is apparently only found there, not found anywhere else.
They've looked at other species and documented species of whale,
and it's not anything like anything exists anywhere else. So
apparently it's this majestic creature that's just eating.

Speaker 2 (35:12):
And what do they do with the fat? They just
throw it back in to give sharks diarrhea.

Speaker 1 (35:16):
I would oh, yeah, that'd be great. Can you imagine that?

Speaker 2 (35:20):
That'd be great. All of a sudden, there's a news
bulletin there's been a wave of shark diarrhea coming into
the beaches of Oh my god, that would be amazing.
Just every shark in the area simultaneously gets diarrhea and
shits on the beach.

Speaker 1 (35:39):
Wouldn't be great. They all just swam up to the
beach to do that and then cut out.

Speaker 2 (35:43):
Yeah, they flight, They're like, this is where the people are.
Let's just shit in the water. Fuck the people.

Speaker 1 (35:49):
I would get a shark tattoo if that happened. If
the sharks all die by massive diarrhea from eating cryptid
fat and they swim too.

Speaker 2 (35:57):
Stop pretending like you don't fucking love sharks, like, oh, yeah,
I would love it if the sharks all fucked it.

Speaker 1 (36:04):
No, you wouldn't.

Speaker 2 (36:05):
You would cry like, who's gonna love me?

Speaker 3 (36:10):
Now?

Speaker 1 (36:11):
They would redeem themselves in my eyes by dropping deuces
on every coast of every continent on this planet.

Speaker 2 (36:18):
Yeah, that would be a pretty awesome thing for them
to do. Though honestly, every beach in the world is clothed.
It just covered it in in shark shit.

Speaker 1 (36:30):
Oh man. Another one, and the last one that I
have on my short list here, oh, is the underwater moose.
Have you ever heard of anything like this?

Speaker 2 (36:43):
No? But I want to know all about it. And
if it's something disappointing like the fucking sea werewolf that's
just diarrhea fat, then I'm gonna be very disappointed. If
it's an actual aquatic moose, however, I will be very happy.
I will be delighted.

Speaker 1 (37:02):
Even Okay, and I have to add that from this
day fourth there is no uh sea wolf. What did
you call it? I don't know.

Speaker 2 (37:12):
An underwater werewolf that makes you shittert diarrheal wolf is
what it's the diarrhea wolf. That's that's really just a
well and has nothing to do with the werewolves and
it and it causes the rea. Yeah, it's just a
real piece of shit, fucking cryptid. I hate it and
I hope it gets blown up.

Speaker 1 (37:33):
But you're right. The underwater and moose is just an
aquatic moose described by the natives of Canada. Oh yeah,
as a normal moose, but one that lives underwater. They say,
you can be it can be seen at the bottom
of lake beds from a canoe, and they said that
they are incredibly durable, they're incredibly hard.

Speaker 2 (37:52):
To kill, but they have and they're majestic as fuck.

Speaker 1 (37:56):
Yeah, but there was one account where a hunter was
able to see one in the water and as it
came up, he shot it in its ear, which is
probably one of the most one of the only vulnerable
parts on its body, and they killed and ate it.
And they said that, wait a second.

Speaker 2 (38:13):
Wait a second, they shot it in the ear and
it killed it.

Speaker 1 (38:16):
Uh huh, what is is it?

Speaker 2 (38:17):
Like? That's the off switch. You shoot the ear and
it's like, oh fuck, you got my ear, I'm dead.

Speaker 1 (38:22):
Well, I mean, you shoot anything in the ear with
anything substantial. You remember the old mob days of ice
picking someone behind the ear. That shit's very effective.

Speaker 2 (38:31):
But I'm sure that's behind the ear piercing the skull.
Moose have ears that protrude from the side of their head.
If you shut their ear, you just shoot their ear off,
unless you're shooting into their ear.

Speaker 1 (38:43):
Yeah, I think that's what they did, was shot into it.

Speaker 2 (38:46):
That's a different color, and I take back my previous argument.

Speaker 1 (38:50):
The meat was described as being yellowish green and it
tasted very bad.

Speaker 2 (38:55):
Oh yeah, that sounds like something I'd be into. Yellowish
green meat, you know.

Speaker 1 (39:00):
Yeah, yummy. It's living on the bottom of the water.
Like I said, we don't want to eat bottom feeders, guys.
But in an author interviewed a lady. She said that
another group of people had caught and ate one and
they shared it with her and her father, and she
said the meat on this one was very, very good.

(39:21):
It was there was no problem with it at all.

Speaker 2 (39:23):
So we're back to hit or miss, whether you get
one that's tasty or not.

Speaker 1 (39:27):
Yeah, I mean in this list that I came across,
I'll put the video on my show. Notes and a
couple other websites that linked to similar stories, but most
of the time the Mocalium bambae one it killed people,
and this this fucking lake moose getting that funky one.
I mean, I'm sure that eating an animal that you're
not used to or something that that's rare is going

(39:48):
to be different. The green meat could have been normal.
But for the most part, everybody loves these scripts as
they're delicious. Everybody eats them. Do you think that there's
like puts a baba jabufo feed Do you think that
that could be a part of why we don't have
some cryptids or even down to like the that fucking
Tasmanian tiger, Like maybe it was just to look at

(40:10):
the look at the buffalo. Yeah, there you go.

Speaker 2 (40:16):
Yeah, I mean that thing was pretty much hunted to
extinction for the most part, so they I mean, we
we've done it so many times. Humans have have been
responsible for a lot of extinctions due to over hunting.

Speaker 1 (40:30):
Mm hm. So I think that's a real possibility. I mean,
when you look at these old beast areas when they
have something like like it's just like a normal cow,
but its horn is like on the top of its head.
You know, maybe that did exist. But maybe after a while,
it became rare, and they became pride, and they became expensive,
and then they all just died out. Maybe that that's

(40:50):
what happened. But maybe humans eating them or another reason
why we don't see a lot of these maybe somewhat
normal cryptids. Aquatic moose can be seen walking around in
the surface for a second before it takes a dive.
Maybe a few have been killed that way. And of
course there's a few that have been killed while they're
in the water and people knew they were aquatic moose.
But that's something I never really thought about. Maybe there's

(41:12):
not too many fucking fucking hoop snakes because people cherished them.

Speaker 2 (41:18):
It was a rare.

Speaker 1 (41:19):
They killed it and they saved it, or ate it
or presented to a gift to somebody of high honor
or something like that. There's more ways that people would
get rid of or liquidate these things other than to
shooting them to rid them from stopping terrorizing a town
or something like that, or scaring a village. Maybe they

(41:39):
were just hunted for their pelts, maybe they were just
fucking eaten.

Speaker 2 (41:45):
Or maybe they're magically delicious.

Speaker 1 (41:47):
I mean, according to the folks who have partaken. The
majority rules is that they're yummy. So you give me
one of these guonks in the lumber Woods books and
I'll fucking eat it. I wonder see you will eat
a squad yteresting? I went from magical meat maybe no,
maybe not a squawk? Oh you like thunderbird eggs? Maybe?

Speaker 2 (42:06):
How about that a thunderbird omelet?

Speaker 1 (42:10):
Yeah, I'll take that.

Speaker 2 (42:12):
Nice good for you. That's that'll that's uh the breakfast
the champions right there?

Speaker 1 (42:18):
Yeah, anything else will make me thunder turd hey.

Speaker 2 (42:23):
And dropping the bams.
