Internet comedy horror showstarring yours truly Matt.
Speaker 2 (00:59):
I don't even remember what the noise was that I made.
Speaker 3 (01:02):
You're just like uh-huh, I'm here, that's Doug
Muck and I'm Bang.
Welcome everyone, so you'll seeagain.
Jason's not here.

Lord of the rings.
Speaker 1 (01:37):
Standout cardboard cutouts over here but they're
all facing mike can't see any ofthem he do be kind of like
weirdly staring at you backthere he does, he does.
Speaker 3 (01:49):
He's my buddy, he's always protecting me.
The thing that scares me themost is like so I went.
This is off topic.
Obviously we haven't startedtopic yet, but uh, my favorite
thing about horror is backgroundhorror.
When it's creepy, shit'shappening in the background and
there's no attention brought toit.
That shit's awesome, like thatmovie it Follows.
You can always see the fuckerin the background, but it's
(02:11):
never brought to the attention.
Well, it is sometimes, but notall the time Do you ever watch
the Haunting of Hill House?
Speaker 1 (02:18):
Yeah, I love that with all the ghosts in the
background.
Speaker 3 (02:20):
Oh, mike Flanagan, Anyway, but it's a great Mike.
Speaker 2 (02:24):
Flanagan anyway, but I think we talked about this
before, probably, but a horrorthing that gets me is when scary
shit happens during the daybecause, you don't expect it.
I don't know.
Speaker 3 (02:37):
I love that, but because I like the background
shit.
I'm terrified of Legolas herebecause one of these days I'm
going to be re-watching back toyoutube videos or something and
I'm gonna see his like him winkor like his head moves slightly
or something.
It's gonna freak me the fuckout.
I know it's gonna happen,probably.
Speaker 1 (02:53):
Um you won't like, because it'll just look like a
potato, so you'll never see ityeah, you're right, not enough
pixels to tell if anything'smoving, um, anyway.
Speaker 3 (03:02):
But, yeah, looking forward to that scare happening
in my life.
Um, or maybe it would just be abig old fucking prank, bro.
Uh, who's the fuck would, whothe fuck knows?
Uh, we're not doinghousekeeping today because this,
we're recording this on thesame day as the other one.
But, uh, pranky, prank, pranks,hoaxy, hoax, hoax.
We're doing, uh, things likethat.
(03:23):
Uh, the baton, uh, what's hisname?
Radio guy that did war in theworld and was like, oh my god,
they're here ah, the frenchchampagne yeah, yeah, orwell
that was my topic oh, oh shit,ass, just kidding.
(03:46):
It's not Good, but we're talkingabout hoaxes and pranks on the
internet, which is fun.
So last time we had Doug start.
Matt, do you want to kick itoff?
I'll kick it off.
Speaker 2 (04:02):
Oh, I'll kick it off, I will do it.
Speaker 3 (04:11):
I will open my notes and I'll talk about the thing
about the hoax um oh yeah, so myhoax prank, whatever the fuck
you want.
I didn't have their notes up.
Speaker 2 (04:20):
I sure fucking didn't I was was googling Discord
video quality bet.
My hoax prank thing is calledDiane in 7A, so this is Diane.
Diane, diane.
Speaker 3 (04:38):
I don't know what, anne did but I don't want her to
die.
Speaker 2 (04:40):
I'm sorry, Anne.
Speaker 3 (04:41):
We can't hear anything.
Doug Dang, he's purring sofucking loud.
Ah, he loves you.
Diane and 7A.
Speaker 2 (04:50):
So on Thanksgiving Day of 2013, there was a man and
this man's name was Elan GaleElan I'm pretty sure it's Elan
E-L-A-N.
Gale and he is a producer, orat least was a producer for
ABC's reality dating show, theBachelor Diane, and he began
(05:13):
tweeting about somebody who wason his flight.
Allegedly named Diane was beingvery loud and very cantankerous
about the fact that the flightwas delayed and she really
wanted to get home because shehad Thanksgiving plans.
(05:34):
So Mr Gale took it upon himselfto send her a glass of wine
with a note attached to it, andthis note read and, by the way,
he's he's live tweeting thisinteraction.
So each time he sends a note tothis woman, he takes a picture
(05:55):
of the said note and post it onthe internet, on Twitter.
And the first one reads it hascome to my attention that today
is your Thanksgiving.
It must be hard not to be withyour family.
Please accept this glass ofwine.
It is a gift from me to you.
Hopefully, if you drink it, youwon't be able to use your mouth
to talk.
Love, elan.
So she sends a note back andthis note reads the wine wasn't
(06:21):
funny.
The vodka wasn't funny.
You're an awful person with nocompassion.
I'm sorry for your family thatthey should have to deal with
you, to which Gail respondedThank you for your love, fuck
you.
And that's the end he wrote.
Thank you for your lovely note.
The person who lacks compassionis you.
(06:42):
We all want to get home,particularly the nice men and
women who fly your lazy assaround and serve you drinks.
You're welcome.
Next time you're in a bad mood,stay home.
I hate you very much.
Eat my dick note number fourwhich um is, is from diane.
Again, this is inappropriatebeyond belief.
I will be speaking to theauthorities when we land.
(07:04):
Note number five is from Milanand says when you speak to the
authorities, please make surethey arrest you for cannibalism,
because you just ate my dick.
So apparently this interactionhappens during the flight and
they finally land where they'regoing and this woman is so upset
(07:26):
that she apparently assaultshim, like just walks up to him
and slaps him and the airportsecurity like starts to arrest
her, but I guess she is able tolike talk herself out of it.
Anyway, he posts this entireexchange on Twitter and it goes
viral and I'm talking likehundreds of thousands of
(07:48):
retweets, hundreds of thousandsof likes and stuff.
So much so to the point where,like, major news publishers are
starting to pick this story up.
Buzzfeed writes an articleabout it.
They're like this is a crazyinteraction Of course they did
yeah they posted all thepictures and stuff.
It gets reposted on ABC and theHuffington Post and then,
(08:12):
apparently, somebody who isrelated to Diane comes to her
defense and says that Diane hadcancer and is in a very bad mood
because she has been recentlydiagnosed with cancer.
Because she has been recentlydiagnosed with cancer, so on
December 2nd Mr Gale tweets apicture of an empty chair and
(08:33):
accompanying this picture of theempty chair is a message that
says here is Diana sitting inthe chair.
And it turns out she didn'texist.
There is no Diane in 7A.
He was just bored and just madeit up and people bought into it
and Buzzfeed bought into it andso did the mainstream media.
Speaker 3 (08:58):
I feel like that's like those people that make the.
That's at that time on Twitterwhere you just make up a story
or whatever everyone buys it.
Like um right, yeah dear, deardavid or whatever, where
everyone's like oh, this guy'shouse is really haunted yeah, a
hundred percent.
Speaker 2 (09:12):
You would never be able to do this today and get
people to buy it.
Speaker 3 (09:15):
Not a fucking chance people would know yeah, I've
seen some shit on here, rightthis is musk's, I think.
I think people now most peopleare like nothing's true
immediately skeptical.
Speaker 2 (09:27):
A lot of this shit like you'll see stuff that is
very obviously real and likehalf the comments will be like
this is fake as fuck bro ai airight like.
I saw a video on instagram theother day that was like a
montage of this guy riding ariding lawnmower over like jumps
and shit and like slamming hishead into the ground on the way
(09:49):
down and like very obviouslyinjuring himself, and half the
comments were like that ain'treal, that's a dummy, and it's
like it's very obviously a manlike he moves as he hits the
ground like I get there's videos.
Speaker 3 (10:04):
I see where this guy like he, he moves as he hits the
ground, like I get there's,there's videos.
I see where this guy like he,he hits, he, he like, hits
things into his shins.
That's the whole bit.
Yeah, like he, I've seen thatguy before yeah, it comes with
these contraptions where he'sgot like razor scooters and like
like truck, like hitches on,like contraptions to just like
where he'll launch it.
(10:25):
He'll come back and smack hisshin, yeah, and people are like,
oh, those just rubber, there'sno way his shins could survive.
He's just adding in the effectafterwards.
I kind of agree a little,because how does it?
How is shins not powder?
Uh, but also fuck I.
I watched those in my fuckingnuts going to my stomach.
Speaker 2 (10:43):
I don't care if it's fake or not.
It looks real and it's like thesecondhand pain I feel is real.
Speaker 1 (10:49):
Yep, I went, so there's a tick tock guy that I
see every once in a while.
He's, he dresses up as a mimeand like people like hurt him or
like his friends are hurtinghim in some fashion, but he
can't make any noise, so he'sjust like one of them is a razor
scooter to the shin like he's amime.
(11:10):
You can't fucking make any.
It's really funny actually.
Speaker 3 (11:12):
I thought that was going a different direction.
I thought when you said theywere hurting him, like they're
miming, like beating him up andhe was actually getting bruised
and shit from it and you justsee like blood coming out of him
and no one's actually hittinghim that'd be impressive um um
so a couple of a couple of otherthings I got because that
wasn't super long is somecomputer virus stuff.
Speaker 2 (11:38):
So back in the day before we used computer viruses
to like get money out of peopleand like destroy data and take
over governments and all sortsof shit.
It used to be almost solely onlive wire they, yeah, the people
used to write viruses just forthe hell of it, and so there's
(11:58):
lots of viruses, uh, out therethat were prominent during like
the late 90s and early 2000s,that just do goofy shit, like
stuff that's not necessarilymalicious but is just annoying.
So one that I thought wasparticularly interesting was
called the hps virus, and whatthis would do is you would
(12:19):
download it and if it installedon your computer, it would find
every bitmap file, which waslike a common method of storing
uncompressed images back in theday, like a dot bmp file.
It would find everyone on thehard drive and then, whenever
that file would get open thenext time, it would invert it so
that it was like flipped, notinvert color wise, but like it
(12:42):
would turn it, it would mirrorit, and so, like lots of stuff
is stored in the operatingsystem this way, or at least was
so like even like the windows95 logo that, like you see, yeah
, that you see, when you bootyour computer would just be
flipped, and there was no.
And and when it did this itwould like set a string so that
the next time it ran it wouldn'tflip it back.
(13:03):
So all the, all the images onyour computer would just be
permanently flipped, so that's afun one that's so mean I that
me.
Speaker 3 (13:13):
There was one.
A while ago, like a long longtime ago, we had a family
fucking computer that it wouldlike automatically open our like
CD disc drive thing like youwould go to close it and it
would just come back out.
You close it just we had tolike restart and refresh
(13:33):
everything to get it to go I'veseen that one before.
Speaker 2 (13:37):
Um on like old forum posts.
I think there's one thatthere's a screenshot that uh
makes the rounds periodically.
But it's like uh, somebody sayssomebody posts that um program
and they're like this will giveyour computer a cup holder and
they're like what, and theydownload it and they run it.
And they're like this will giveyour computer a cup holder and
they're like what, and theydownload it and they run it and
they're like it doesn't doanything and that's exactly what
(13:57):
it was.
Speaker 3 (13:59):
I was ashamed to say I fell for a cup holder trick.
Yeah, me and my dad were likeoh, that must be funny, let's do
it.
Just downloaded it onto ourcomputer like where's the cup
holder?
Speaker 2 (14:11):
simpler times.
Um, there is the internetarchive, the way back machine.
Archiveorg has a malware museumnow so you can go look at old
viruses.
Most of them just kind of makemessages and shit like that.
There's one called coughshopcomthat um just puts a big message
on the screen that just sayslegalize cannabis.
Speaker 1 (14:33):
Hell yeah dude, I thought it was going to be like
just a guy's face and he's going.
Speaker 2 (14:42):
And one that is like more recent that I think is just
kind of created in.
Like homage to this sort ofstuff is uh, so have you ever
heard of untitled goose game, oryeah, so the guy that made that
(15:04):
game created a virus and it'sjust a goose that wanders around
on your screen when you run theprogram and it will like show
up periodically and just likefuck with stuff.
So it'll like leave you notes,like intimidating notes, like uh
, I cause problems on purpose.
Is this one, uh one that I sawearlier was piece of piece was
(15:27):
never an option and then it'lldo things like grab your mouse
cursor and like drag it acrossthe screen and shit.
Speaker 3 (15:39):
It's pretty fun.
Speaker 1 (15:40):
Hell, yeah honk, pretty solid stuff, dude, that's
pretty solid fucking stuff.
That's what I got a littlelittle goosey guy on my screen?
Speaker 3 (15:43):
yeah, I'll take it.
Is that all you got there, moot?
Speaker 2 (15:45):
that's all.
That's what I got.
That's it.
That's it, bro.
That's all wow I'll look upmore stuff while you guys are
talking.
I'm sorry, you, basically.
Speaker 3 (15:53):
I'm sorry, okay, don't um, it's okay, I have an
interesting one, so I today I'mgoing to be talking about
microsoft coffee.
Basically, what had happened wasin the 90s microsoft was
microsoft was really trying forthis, like relatability, um,
(16:15):
like theme, and they triedmaking things like super simple
for their users.
Um, they had something calledlike uh, well, first and
foremost, um, windows 95 wasvery big and, um, because it was
such a simple, you know,program to use, they did
Microsoft Bob, which people werelike all right now you're just
(16:38):
talking down to me, I'm notstupid Microsoft, because it was
very, very just likerudimentary, like Matt, do you
know what Microsoft Bob is?
Speaker 2 (16:48):
That's like the automated voice thing, right
that's like the automated voicething.
Speaker 3 (16:56):
Right, so it it.
When it first came out it waslike a um, it was basically a
computing, like a system, kindof like windows 95, but they
dumbed it down to the extremewhere it was like oh, this is
your home computer, so it theymade like the desktop it was
supposed to be like an assistant, like it was like the
pre-credited, like the virtualassistant thing, right yeah,
kind of, and like it.
Like it popped up as this likeimagery of like it was your
(17:18):
living room and then like if youwanted to, um like open a file,
there's literally like a filecabinet, and you like click on
the file cabinet and like it waslike very rudimentary people
are like all right, this isn't apoint and click like children's
game.
This is my computer dog, Idon't need this shit.
Speaker 2 (17:34):
Um yeah but, um, the the voice for bob is like when
people think early text tospeech, the voice that they hear
in their heads is probably themicrosoft bob voice.
It's that voice is like I likea bob voice.
(17:57):
It's that voice is like I like,uh, like john madden like uh,
you've heard that you've heardyeah, you've heard the microsoft
bob voice before.
Speaker 3 (18:03):
Hello, winrar yes, exactly um, but so uh, this is
around the time.
You know, clippy was a thingthat people were like all right,
he's fucking here, whatever,but they were going for that
relatability thing they weregoing for.
Speaker 2 (18:17):
No, I'm thinking of Sam Bob, who's Sam Microsoft.
Sam is the voice.
Speaker 3 (18:23):
Oh gotcha, I have no idea, but they were going for
that relatability and they'regoing for what's hip and
happening and wow.
And now?
So for those of you that don'tknow, microsoft was stationed
out in Seattle.
That's where it got its startupand everything.
Guess what else got its startupin Seattle in the 90s?
(18:45):
Starbucks, baby Starbucks.
So what's the most relatablething to people in the 90s in
Seattle?
Coffee.
Ironically, the programminglanguage, java, was also pretty
brand new.
Java was like a year old whenthis whole thing was going on.
(19:07):
So there are these employeesthat worked at Microsoft okay,
and these employees like to pokefun at microsoft, basically
because microsoft was seen asmaking worse dumbed down
versions of already existingthings.
Ie um, people complained aboutearly, like, internet explorer
being likea ripoff of netscape.
(19:28):
Um, photoshop was a ripoff ofanother program I don't remember
the name of it, um, but peopleare like, yeah, microsoft's
basically just taking, uh, likeexisting programs and dumbing
them down, making them stupid.
So of course, it makes sensethat microsoft would come out
with their own programminglanguage, just like java.
(19:50):
They can't call it Java, sowe'll call it Coffee.
So Microsoft Coffee was born.
These employees spent a fewweeks making this fake Microsoft
Coffee product.
They made a physical box.
They had a, because, remember,back in the day, fucking
software and shit came in a box.
(20:12):
People A lot of you that may belistening are young where it's
just like you just download shit.
No, you had to buy this stuff.
Fucking the internet came on aCD back in the day.
It's not something you justfucking got, you had to get it.
Aol sent you a disc and, if youwere lucky, it got one in a
fucking cereal box that gave youa day of free internet along
(20:33):
with captain crunch's video gamewith the crunchlings in it.
Speaker 2 (20:38):
Uh, there's an episode of podnancy plays where
chris and I play like some ofthose old shitty like cereal box
demos I think you guys play thechecks dooms, yeah, yeah I, I
want to do more of that.
Speaker 3 (20:49):
We should do more of that I would love to play that
Captain Crunch game.
That'd be awesome.
Let's do it one time.
So they made this fake product.
They even went so far to makinga logo.
They made a fake production anddistribution list.
They even made a press releasefor Microsoft Coffee and sent it
(21:11):
to local news stations.
As part of this big old fuckingprank, people were sent out
these barcodes that would givethem a discount on purchasing
Microsoft Coffee.
But whenever you went to aretailer to try to get your box
of Microsoft Coffee, guess whatwasn't in stores?
Guess what was on the shelfMicrosoft coffee.
(21:34):
That's what.
No one had it.
The jig was up and Microsoft wasfucking pissed about this.
So Microsoft sent out a.
They had their legal team sendout a mass like letter to their
employees and they're like hey,we're legal, we're lawyers,
we're looking into this shit.
(21:55):
You fucked up, we're gonnafucking find you, bro.
And in the letter it even saysthey're like bill gates is not
happy.
Bill gates is not amused bythis situation at all.
So, bill gates, you pissed offthe man.
There's that video.
You pissed off the coolest guyever.
There's that video of himjumping over a swivel chair.
You pissed that guy off.
How dare you.
(22:18):
So the employees you knowappropriately enough decided to
never come forward with what wasgoing on for years.
Everyone stayed silent, so thelegal team couldn't fucking find
them.
It wasn't until like I want tosay it was like 20, it was like
20, like 15 or 16 or somethingwhen one of the guys that worked
(22:42):
on the print came forward andwas like I fucking did that shit
.
There was a couple of us.
It was awesome, but it's toolate for them to do anything to
us.
So fuck you Microsoft.
Now, if you try to look upMicrosoft Coffee, there are no
news articles on this.
People have went to newspaperarchive websites to see if
(23:04):
there's any news articles oranything on this.
Nothing, there are no newsarticles, no newspapers that
reference Microsoft Coffee atall.
However, one person did have aVHS tape of a local news station
talking about Microsoft Coffee.
Now, matt, I'm not on Twitchright now.
(23:25):
I don't know if you're playingthe clip or not.
I am Cool.
Now, this video for those ofyou that are just audio
listeners this video is a guyrecording his TV that is playing
a VHS tape.
And this VHS tape, you knowit's doing that classic VHS tape
thing was kind of glitching outhere and there Um but it's a
(23:48):
news acre talking about.
Microsoft coffee and he'sholding a coffee analog or it
looks like that Um, but the uh,the, the news anchor is holding
a physical copy of the Microsoftcoffee, uh, a box.
As there's a lot of peopleonline that are like, oh no,
this is fake, like this is madefor this bit, this is just a
(24:08):
joke.
But a lot of what's going on onthis videotape does seem to be
somewhat real.
First and foremost, if youlisten to the audio of the tape
the way they talk about thingsyou can kind of tell that the
internet is still this new thing.
It's like got that, like it'sthe way they speak, that kind of
sells it a little bit like.
(24:29):
They're like, oh, this new thingcame up on the internet today
and it's like all right, yeah,no one talks like that um, and
the news anchor that's actuallymessing around with the box and
everything, he's an actual newsacre.
You can find him if you canlook him up and find him.
I forget his name, but he's aactual, legit news acre.
So this does look like it's alegit um broadcast, not a, not a
(24:51):
fake or altered one.
And if it is a fake, they did adamn good job, cause it looks
pretty good.
Um, but that's Microsoft coffee.
Uh, a pretty fun prank wherepeople were just like what if
microsoft did shitty java?
And uh, I got a little out ofhand.
That's hilarious to me, that'spretty silly.
Speaker 1 (25:10):
I like shit like that .
I've been, uh, I've beenactually watching like a lot of
random youtube channels aboutjust like the history of the
internet and like aim and aoland shit like that lately.
So it's kind of fun to like Idon'tOL and shit like that
lately.
So it's it's kind of fun tolike I don't know.
Go back to that like earlyinternet era where people were
like on the, the worldwide web.
Today this happened and you'relike oh, I forgot.
(25:32):
People like didn't talk likethat.
Speaker 3 (25:35):
Okay, I didn't know what the internet was.
Speaker 1 (25:38):
They're like yeah, I went to Nickcom and I played a
Flash game for a while While wewere surfing the web.
Speaker 3 (25:44):
I'm like, okay, no one talks like that.
Meanwhile, my seven-year-oldass was over here playing the
fucking Lilo and Stitch sandwichstacker game Yep.
Speaker 1 (25:54):
Neopets fucking Gaia Online.
Speaker 3 (25:57):
All that good shit dog, all that good shit.
Speaker 2 (25:59):
You mentioned you were covering this, and I looked
it up because I wanted to knowmore about it too, and I found
this Reddit thread where peoplewere arguing that it is in fact
just made up.
And I was enthralled by thisReddit thread because yeah,
what'd you find?
There were people that were likeso this news broadcast is
(26:19):
totally bullshit, right, is whatthey were saying were people
that were like uh, so this newsbroadcast is totally bullshit,
right, and that is what theywere saying.
They were like why wouldsomebody just record it?
Can they not just record a vhs?
And I'm like, dude, I don'thave the shit.
I'm amazed that this person hadthe shit in their house to play
a vhs tape one yeah two, Idon't have something to fucking
record a VHS tape Like.
(26:39):
I guess if you have a capturecard that's got like composite
on it, maybe, but like mostpeople don't have that
technology in their houseanymore, I feel like him,
recording the TV playing the VHSadds a little bit more of like
an authentic, like shows.
Speaker 3 (27:00):
That's more authentic Because if they just uploaded
the VHS in, in theory you coulddo.
That's easier to edit thansomething that's being put on
the tv, you know, because youhave to deal with like glitches
or something that might happento the tv if you're trying to,
you know, falsify something onthat right.
But like if you, if you candoctor and make shitty looking
vhHS footage easy and uploadthat, Right.
Speaker 2 (27:21):
Well, the OP from the Post was arguing that it was
clearly fake because there isabsolutely no mention of this
anywhere, like you were saying,until the Medium article came
out in 2021.
And he was like you would thinkif somebody, if this had
happened in 1996, like microsoftwas a big deal, people are
(27:45):
going to talk about the latestmicrosoft thing, there would be
some mention of it somewhere,but there there's nothing.
And so I kept going and I waslike, man, damn, maybe you've
got a point.
And then I got down to thesection where they were like the
news broadcast is fake.
And then somebody was like, nah, I lived in in the Seattle area
in the 90s.
I'm pretty sure that news anchoris this person who used to be
(28:08):
on this TV show or on this TVchannel.
And I was like, oh shit, he'sgot him.
He can verify that this is it.
And then somebody else was likenah, that's not that woman,
this is that woman and this issomebody else.
And else was like nah, that'snot that woman, this is that
woman and this is somebody else.
I was like, oh shit, we're backin it.
And and then somebody else waslike no, I lived in seattle in
(28:29):
the 90s and the guy is this guy.
And then uh posted his name isit's keith eldridge and yeah,
yeah, it's that guy.
Speaker 3 (28:39):
So yeah, and he's a news.
That's it, keith eldridge.
Thank you, yeah, yeah, he's areal guy.
Speaker 2 (28:43):
So no, this is a real news broadcast from 96, so this
is definitely yeah, yeah and um, I imagine too what might have
happened.
Speaker 3 (28:52):
Why there's no record of it in like newspapers or
something, because it was caughtby microsoft relatively quick
after like um, yeah, and youdon't want to fuck with
microsoft's legal team soexactly.
I imagine once it was discovered, microsoft's legal team went to
the local stations and, likenewspapers, it was like you
don't print shit about this.
We have bill gates money.
(29:12):
You remember that, know yourplace.
And then they just were like,all right, rip it up, we're out.
We're out.
Because I feel like back thenyou know it was I don't know you
couldn't really have.
I mean, I guess you could dolike a fucking what's it called?
What's that like the sun orwhatever it is that like
newspaper that's just full ofbullshit.
(29:33):
That's like an alienimpregnated.
Speaker 2 (29:37):
Oh, you're talking about the tabloids.
Speaker 3 (29:42):
Yeah, the tabloids.
You would think a tabloid wouldpick up on this, but even if
they did, Nobody would believethem.
Speaker 2 (29:47):
Yeah, no one would believe it Exactly so.
Speaker 3 (29:49):
I'm pretty sure Microsoft's legal team just
cracked down on all these newsstations before they were able
to print anything about it.
Speaker 1 (29:56):
Because you could just do that.
It was the 90s.
Speaker 2 (30:03):
You could be like hey , I'm Microsoft, don't do it.
They got a guy in a suit, in abrown suit, who picks up a phone
.
Speaker 3 (30:05):
And punches it in.
Speaker 2 (30:07):
And holds it up to his ear and he's like listen.
Speaker 3 (30:10):
Get me the Chicago Tribune.
Speaker 1 (30:13):
Reveal in your stories.
Speaker 3 (30:16):
Yeah, yeah, that's.
That's what I gotoug.
What do you got?
Speaker 1 (30:26):
I got nothing, I bet okay bye everybody.
Um, all right, so my topic iscalled the cathode project.
Um, and it's it's a weird one.
So the Cathode Project was analleged DARPA funded experiment
that was leaked onto theinternet via a strange blog post
(30:49):
on a defunct info site in theearly 2010s.
Now we've heard DARPA before,so if that tells you anything,
face lasers, shit like that theymake weathers.
Speaker 2 (31:00):
So if that tells you anything, space lasers, shit
like that.
Yeah, we've talked about DARPA.
Speaker 1 (31:04):
They make weathers?
Yeah, so the original postclaims that the US military
researchers had developed asoftware tool that could
generate person-specific visualpatterns, video or image
sequences that would triggerneurological responses,
including dissociation, paranoiaor even memory blackouts.
(31:24):
Um, the name cathode supposedlystood for cognitive effect
trigger via heuristic opticaldata encoding and, in short,
this video could hack your brain.
Uh, not like subliminalmessaging, but something lower,
like closer to a firmware level,like perception.
Speaker 2 (31:45):
So damn straight to the source yeah, right.
Speaker 1 (31:49):
So the story starts spreading through like
conspiracy theory forums andearly youtube channels and,
according to the legend, uh,these leaked files a series of
strange like 30 second dot webclips are discovered on an old
flash drive purchased at agovernment auction in West
Virginia.
So each video was simply titledwith a color and a timestamp.
(32:12):
There was like green underscorezero, zero, four, two white
underscore zero, zero, zero,zero.
Yellow underscore 0319, etc.
And these clips end upcontaining nothing like overly
frightening, but it's just likestatic, some like weird archival
footage flickering lights, lowdroning sounds.
But if you watch them, peoplewho claimed or people who watch
(32:37):
them, claimed that they causednosebleeds, short-term memory
gaps, deja vu, hallucinations,mostly of geometric shapes, and
one widely circulated claimafter watching a video titled
Red underscore 0190 was that youwould wake up a few hours later
(32:59):
and have no memory of whathappened.
One person said that they wokeup two hours later and they had
a band-aid on their temple, andthey have no memory of them
putting a band-aid on theirtemple.
Just random shit like that.
Yeah, someone came in and justclocked them.
Speaker 3 (33:15):
They're like that's what you get for watching the
video.
Speaker 1 (33:20):
Yeah, right.
So by 2011, the internet urbanlegend channel started covering
the cathode project and the hoaxwent viral under the hashtag
cathode e-files hashtag catheterfiles hashtag.
Watch me put this catheter inthey're sticking videos of our
dickholes and people ended uphashtag watch me, put this
(33:41):
catheter in.
They're sticking videos of ourdickholes.
And people ended up starting toupload fake reaction videos of
themselves having seizures orspeaking nonsense.
And basically schools andcollege campuses banned students
from watching anything that wasrumored to be part of the
cathode project.
Speaker 3 (33:56):
Bonjour, crazy gibberish.
Speaker 1 (34:00):
Bonjour, bueno, si of the cathode project.
Bonjour, crazy gibberish.
Bonjour, bueno, see um.
And then so a 15 year old inarizona who was hospitalized
after watching a replica videoand having what his parents
claimed was a psychotic break.
Uh, turns out to be a prank andthe teen had taken sleeping
pills beforehand.
Um and but yeah so the cathode,cathode, panic.
(34:21):
Uh ends up hitting the news and, soon after, youtube and reddit
began quietly removing all thecontent.
And then the subreddit r slashcathode, uh proof was
permanently banned in 2012, withthe note removed due to public
health concerns.
Oh shit, what do we got?
Speaker 2 (34:39):
here.
We got some pain.
I pulled a mic.
Speaker 1 (34:43):
I fucking doored it.
Speaker 3 (34:45):
Quick Go, doug Go fast For those listening Speed
run.
Speaker 1 (34:50):
Yeah, all right, anyway, so yeah, so these places
start removing all this stuffYouTube and Reddit and
conspiracy theorists start tolose their fucking minds, right,
youtube and reddit?
And?
Um, conspiracy theorists startto lose their fucking minds,
right?
So all this evidence, um wasthat was claimed by the
believers is all fuckingfabricated.
Um fake request screenshots, uh, showing redacted documents
(35:13):
with, uh, like you know, youknow, redacted stuff all over it
.
Um an interview with darpa,whistleblower, who said the
project was testing, uh,non-lethal information warfare.
Um, and rumors that watchingall seven clips in a row would
make you forget your own namefor 30 minutes.
Just all of this shit.
Um, and yeah, by 2013, the hoaxwas dead or scrubbed, and
(35:37):
believers said that thegovernment removed it all from
the internet and that it couldhave just possibly been a
short-lived ARG designed totrick gullible edgelords.
Speaker 2 (35:47):
It was scrubbed.
Speaker 1 (35:50):
Yeah, you know, when you can just scrub everything
about something on the internet.
Speaker 2 (35:53):
Yeah, when you can delete that picture, like Mariah
Carey did, what?
Speaker 1 (35:59):
So yeah, that's the project?
Speaker 3 (36:04):
Was it a nudie hold on?
Speaker 1 (36:08):
it showed her tits, but her tits actually had their
own, like real people facesmaybe I'm making up a lot of
people knowing I'm confusing herwith a different person who's
another pop star, that isn't uhuh, uh michael jackson jackson
was michael jackson jenniferlopez, someone with the last
name jack.
Speaker 3 (36:29):
Miss Jackson.
Speaker 1 (36:31):
I am for real, um, but yeah, did you guys find that
was that interesting?
Was that a good hoax?
Speaker 3 (36:38):
uh-huh, I loved it.
Speaker 1 (36:39):
That was a fun hoax yeah, well it was, I made it all
up, literally there's no suchthing as the cathode project.
I made the whole thing up witha little help, but I made it up
why would you do that to me?
Because, because we literallycan and there's no repercussions
for it so the hoax was?
you told a fake story yeah, thehoax was that I made a hoax,
(37:03):
pranked and it's not real, gotyour ass, but the real, the real
inception here, though, thereal thing is that I want
everyone listening to take abreath, take a seat.
Speaker 2 (37:14):
Actually, if you're not taking a seat, take a seat
are you about to tell me thatsomething else is made up, doug
yeah, so I'm about to telleveryone that we made up some
shit and it's going to be funnybecause no one called us out on
it yeah, everything we do is
Speaker 1 (37:30):
fake.
We're AI-generated videos andthey don't even know.
In 2024, we did somethingcalled Dilute-E-Thon.
That was real.
We really don't.
Let me just get that out of theway.
Speaker 3 (37:48):
We took all that money, fuck you.
Speaker 1 (37:53):
That really happened because just that to be fair.
So we did do that, that's agood disclaimer.
Speaker 3 (38:00):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (38:02):
To get that, just nip that in the bud real quick.
However, we did an episodeduring Dilute-E-Thon and that
episode was entitled ephemeralsensations, and we have been
waiting for more than a year nowfor someone to just be like,
hey, that's not real, thatdoesn't exist, that's not a real
(38:24):
thing that you cover.
Speaker 2 (38:25):
My favorite thing about that episode is there are
people commenting on it that arelike arguing facts about it,
like no, mushrooms don't workthat way yeah, we made that shit
up.
Doesn't exist, it wasn't realJad should be teammate.
Speaker 3 (38:41):
Jadeth.
He's kept it quiet this wholetime, but he did figure out that
it was a fake when we were likeit took heavy prodding because
we mentioned something aboutApril 1st and I'm pretty sure
Jadeth just googled it that itwas a fake.
Speaker 2 (38:50):
Yeah, when we were like it took heavy prodding
though, because we mentionedsomething about April 1st and
I'm pretty sure Jada justGoogled it and it was like,
Since we posted it on April 1st,it was like the first result if
you Google April 1st, Deluty.
Yeah, but either way yeah wefaked it, we made it up, didn't
happen, not a fiction Complete.
Speaker 1 (39:06):
Not fiction, Complete fiction.
Yeah, we've been waiting forsomeone to.
We literally were like allright, the first person who
tells us that this is fake getsa t-shirt.
And yeah, it never ended uphappening.
No one said anything, so goodjob listeners.
Speaker 3 (39:24):
Yeah, Shows that you guys just take what we say for
granted.
Hey, you know what Swag.
Just tell you whatever andapparently you believe it.
We can just do another one ofthose.
Let's just make up everyepisode after this and see if
anyone catches on.
Speaker 1 (39:37):
It's all fake we should probably do another AI
generated episode, though, likewhere we all have random scripts
and maybe we'll try and not dogJason so hard this time.
Speaker 3 (39:50):
Laughing, laughing, laughing hi welcome to the and
not dog Jason so hard this time.
Hi, welcome to Lockout theInternet.
I'm Jason.
Speaker 2 (40:01):
I'm already drunk, according to the AI, and you
would think your initialreaction may be well, maybe just
nobody listened to that episode, but it's got just as many
plays as any of our otherepisodes.
It's over 1,000, maybe 2,000people have listened to that
episode at this point.
Speaker 3 (40:19):
Yeah yeah, it's a normal episode and just no one
caught on.
And you know what?
I'm glad that you just takewhatever I say as correct,
because you know what I'm goingto say it right now I'm the most
attractive member of diluity.
Okay, you could take that forgranted, for truth that's a bank
100 truthful um.
Speaker 1 (40:40):
I'm fucking six foot tall that's why we do really
fucking tall exactly like I'm atall.
Speaker 3 (40:46):
I'm a tall, hot man, and now you have to believe it
because I put it on there.
Well, thanks for joining us onthis weird trip down prank road
and hoax road.
I enjoy this.
Maybe we'll come back to morehoaxes in the future we'll see
but probably not because Dougcouldn't think of one.
So odds are he probably won'tbe able to again in the past.
So, or in the future.
(41:07):
So he probably won't do thisagain, but I'm glad we at least
tried it.
It's something different,something unique.
Next week we covered Doug's.
We do it.
We watch a stream of Doug dyinghis hair.
It's a good time for everybody.
I didn't really have anythinglined up there.

Lord of the rings.
Speaker 1 (01:37):
Standout cardboard cutouts over here but they're
all facing mike can't see any ofthem he do be kind of like
weirdly staring at you backthere he does, he does.
Speaker 3 (01:49):
He's my buddy, he's always protecting me.
The thing that scares me themost is like so I went.
This is off topic.
Obviously we haven't startedtopic yet, but uh, my favorite
thing about horror is backgroundhorror.
When it's creepy, shit'shappening in the background and
there's no attention brought toit.
That shit's awesome, like thatmovie it Follows.
You can always see the fuckerin the background, but it's
(02:11):
never brought to the attention.
Well, it is sometimes, but notall the time Do you ever watch
the Haunting of Hill House?
Speaker 1 (02:18):
Yeah, I love that with all the ghosts in the
background.
Speaker 3 (02:20):
Oh, mike Flanagan, Anyway, but it's a great Mike.
Speaker 2 (02:24):
Flanagan anyway, but I think we talked about this
before, probably, but a horrorthing that gets me is when scary
shit happens during the daybecause, you don't expect it.
I don't know.
Speaker 3 (02:37):
I love that, but because I like the background
shit.
I'm terrified of Legolas herebecause one of these days I'm
going to be re-watching back toyoutube videos or something and
I'm gonna see his like him winkor like his head moves slightly
or something.
It's gonna freak me the fuckout.
I know it's gonna happen,probably.
Speaker 1 (02:53):
Um you won't like, because it'll just look like a
potato, so you'll never see ityeah, you're right, not enough
pixels to tell if anything'smoving, um, anyway.
Speaker 3 (03:02):
But, yeah, looking forward to that scare happening
in my life.
Um, or maybe it would just be abig old fucking prank, bro.
Uh, who's the fuck would, whothe fuck knows?
Uh, we're not doinghousekeeping today because this,
we're recording this on thesame day as the other one.
But, uh, pranky, prank, pranks,hoaxy, hoax, hoax.
We're doing, uh, things likethat.
(03:23):
Uh, the baton, uh, what's hisname?
Radio guy that did war in theworld and was like, oh my god,
they're here ah, the frenchchampagne yeah, yeah, orwell
that was my topic oh, oh shit,ass, just kidding.
(03:46):
It's not Good, but we're talkingabout hoaxes and pranks on the
internet, which is fun.
So last time we had Doug start.
Matt, do you want to kick itoff?
I'll kick it off.
Speaker 2 (04:02):
Oh, I'll kick it off, I will do it.
Speaker 3 (04:11):
I will open my notes and I'll talk about the thing
about the hoax um oh yeah, so myhoax prank, whatever the fuck
you want.
I didn't have their notes up.
Speaker 2 (04:20):
I sure fucking didn't I was was googling Discord
video quality bet.
My hoax prank thing is calledDiane in 7A, so this is Diane.
Diane, diane.
Speaker 3 (04:38):
I don't know what, anne did but I don't want her to
die.
Speaker 2 (04:40):
I'm sorry, Anne.
Speaker 3 (04:41):
We can't hear anything.
Doug Dang, he's purring sofucking loud.
Ah, he loves you.
Diane and 7A.
Speaker 2 (04:50):
So on Thanksgiving Day of 2013, there was a man and
this man's name was Elan GaleElan I'm pretty sure it's Elan
E-L-A-N.
Gale and he is a producer, orat least was a producer for
ABC's reality dating show, theBachelor Diane, and he began
(05:13):
tweeting about somebody who wason his flight.
Allegedly named Diane was beingvery loud and very cantankerous
about the fact that the flightwas delayed and she really
wanted to get home because shehad Thanksgiving plans.
(05:34):
So Mr Gale took it upon himselfto send her a glass of wine
with a note attached to it, andthis note read and, by the way,
he's he's live tweeting thisinteraction.
So each time he sends a note tothis woman, he takes a picture
(05:55):
of the said note and post it onthe internet, on Twitter.
And the first one reads it hascome to my attention that today
is your Thanksgiving.
It must be hard not to be withyour family.
Please accept this glass ofwine.
It is a gift from me to you.
Hopefully, if you drink it, youwon't be able to use your mouth
to talk.
Love, elan.
So she sends a note back andthis note reads the wine wasn't
(06:21):
funny.
The vodka wasn't funny.
You're an awful person with nocompassion.
I'm sorry for your family thatthey should have to deal with
you, to which Gail respondedThank you for your love, fuck
you.
And that's the end he wrote.
Thank you for your lovely note.
The person who lacks compassionis you.
(06:42):
We all want to get home,particularly the nice men and
women who fly your lazy assaround and serve you drinks.
You're welcome.
Next time you're in a bad mood,stay home.
I hate you very much.
Eat my dick note number fourwhich um is, is from diane.
Again, this is inappropriatebeyond belief.
I will be speaking to theauthorities when we land.
(07:04):
Note number five is from Milanand says when you speak to the
authorities, please make surethey arrest you for cannibalism,
because you just ate my dick.
So apparently this interactionhappens during the flight and
they finally land where they'regoing and this woman is so upset
(07:26):
that she apparently assaultshim, like just walks up to him
and slaps him and the airportsecurity like starts to arrest
her, but I guess she is able tolike talk herself out of it.
Anyway, he posts this entireexchange on Twitter and it goes
viral and I'm talking likehundreds of thousands of
(07:48):
retweets, hundreds of thousandsof likes and stuff.
So much so to the point where,like, major news publishers are
starting to pick this story up.
Buzzfeed writes an articleabout it.
They're like this is a crazyinteraction Of course they did
yeah they posted all thepictures and stuff.
It gets reposted on ABC and theHuffington Post and then,
(08:12):
apparently, somebody who isrelated to Diane comes to her
defense and says that Diane hadcancer and is in a very bad mood
because she has been recentlydiagnosed with cancer.
Because she has been recentlydiagnosed with cancer, so on
December 2nd Mr Gale tweets apicture of an empty chair and
(08:33):
accompanying this picture of theempty chair is a message that
says here is Diana sitting inthe chair.
And it turns out she didn'texist.
There is no Diane in 7A.
He was just bored and just madeit up and people bought into it
and Buzzfeed bought into it andso did the mainstream media.
Speaker 3 (08:58):
I feel like that's like those people that make the.
That's at that time on Twitterwhere you just make up a story
or whatever everyone buys it.
Like um right, yeah dear, deardavid or whatever, where
everyone's like oh, this guy'shouse is really haunted yeah, a
hundred percent.
Speaker 2 (09:12):
You would never be able to do this today and get
people to buy it.
Speaker 3 (09:15):
Not a fucking chance people would know yeah, I've
seen some shit on here, rightthis is musk's, I think.
I think people now most peopleare like nothing's true
immediately skeptical.
Speaker 2 (09:27):
A lot of this shit like you'll see stuff that is
very obviously real and likehalf the comments will be like
this is fake as fuck bro ai airight like.
I saw a video on instagram theother day that was like a
montage of this guy riding ariding lawnmower over like jumps
and shit and like slamming hishead into the ground on the way
(09:49):
down and like very obviouslyinjuring himself, and half the
comments were like that ain'treal, that's a dummy, and it's
like it's very obviously a manlike he moves as he hits the
ground like I get there's videos.
Speaker 3 (10:04):
I see where this guy like he, he moves as he hits the
ground, like I get there's,there's videos.
I see where this guy like he,he hits, he, he like, hits
things into his shins.
That's the whole bit.
Yeah, like he, I've seen thatguy before yeah, it comes with
these contraptions where he'sgot like razor scooters and like
like truck, like hitches on,like contraptions to just like
where he'll launch it.
(10:25):
He'll come back and smack hisshin, yeah, and people are like,
oh, those just rubber, there'sno way his shins could survive.
He's just adding in the effectafterwards.
I kind of agree a little,because how does it?
How is shins not powder?
Uh, but also fuck I.
I watched those in my fuckingnuts going to my stomach.
Speaker 2 (10:43):
I don't care if it's fake or not.
It looks real and it's like thesecondhand pain I feel is real.
Speaker 1 (10:49):
Yep, I went, so there's a tick tock guy that I
see every once in a while.
He's, he dresses up as a mimeand like people like hurt him or
like his friends are hurtinghim in some fashion, but he
can't make any noise, so he'sjust like one of them is a razor
scooter to the shin like he's amime.
(11:10):
You can't fucking make any.
It's really funny actually.
Speaker 3 (11:12):
I thought that was going a different direction.
I thought when you said theywere hurting him, like they're
miming, like beating him up andhe was actually getting bruised
and shit from it and you justsee like blood coming out of him
and no one's actually hittinghim that'd be impressive um um
so a couple of a couple of otherthings I got because that
wasn't super long is somecomputer virus stuff.
Speaker 2 (11:38):
So back in the day before we used computer viruses
to like get money out of peopleand like destroy data and take
over governments and all sortsof shit.
It used to be almost solely onlive wire they, yeah, the people
used to write viruses just forthe hell of it, and so there's
(11:58):
lots of viruses, uh, out therethat were prominent during like
the late 90s and early 2000s,that just do goofy shit, like
stuff that's not necessarilymalicious but is just annoying.
So one that I thought wasparticularly interesting was
called the hps virus, and whatthis would do is you would
(12:19):
download it and if it installedon your computer, it would find
every bitmap file, which waslike a common method of storing
uncompressed images back in theday, like a dot bmp file.
It would find everyone on thehard drive and then, whenever
that file would get open thenext time, it would invert it so
that it was like flipped, notinvert color wise, but like it
(12:42):
would turn it, it would mirrorit, and so, like lots of stuff
is stored in the operatingsystem this way, or at least was
so like even like the windows95 logo that, like you see, yeah
, that you see, when you bootyour computer would just be
flipped, and there was no.
And and when it did this itwould like set a string so that
the next time it ran it wouldn'tflip it back.
(13:03):
So all the, all the images onyour computer would just be
permanently flipped, so that's afun one that's so mean I that
me.
Speaker 3 (13:13):
There was one.
A while ago, like a long longtime ago, we had a family
fucking computer that it wouldlike automatically open our like
CD disc drive thing like youwould go to close it and it
would just come back out.
You close it just we had tolike restart and refresh
(13:33):
everything to get it to go I'veseen that one before.
Speaker 2 (13:37):
Um on like old forum posts.
I think there's one thatthere's a screenshot that uh
makes the rounds periodically.
But it's like uh, somebody sayssomebody posts that um program
and they're like this will giveyour computer a cup holder and
they're like what, and theydownload it and they run it.
And they're like this will giveyour computer a cup holder and
they're like what, and theydownload it and they run it and
they're like it doesn't doanything and that's exactly what
(13:57):
it was.
Speaker 3 (13:59):
I was ashamed to say I fell for a cup holder trick.
Yeah, me and my dad were likeoh, that must be funny, let's do
it.
Just downloaded it onto ourcomputer like where's the cup
holder?
Speaker 2 (14:11):
simpler times.
Um, there is the internetarchive, the way back machine.
Archiveorg has a malware museumnow so you can go look at old
viruses.
Most of them just kind of makemessages and shit like that.
There's one called coughshopcomthat um just puts a big message
on the screen that just sayslegalize cannabis.
Speaker 1 (14:33):
Hell yeah dude, I thought it was going to be like
just a guy's face and he's going.
Speaker 2 (14:42):
And one that is like more recent that I think is just
kind of created in.
Like homage to this sort ofstuff is uh, so have you ever
heard of untitled goose game, oryeah, so the guy that made that
(15:04):
game created a virus and it'sjust a goose that wanders around
on your screen when you run theprogram and it will like show
up periodically and just likefuck with stuff.
So it'll like leave you notes,like intimidating notes, like uh
, I cause problems on purpose.
Is this one, uh one that I sawearlier was piece of piece was
(15:27):
never an option and then it'lldo things like grab your mouse
cursor and like drag it acrossthe screen and shit.
Speaker 3 (15:39):
It's pretty fun.
Speaker 1 (15:40):
Hell, yeah honk, pretty solid stuff, dude, that's
pretty solid fucking stuff.
That's what I got a littlelittle goosey guy on my screen?
Speaker 3 (15:43):
yeah, I'll take it.
Is that all you got there, moot?
Speaker 2 (15:45):
that's all.
That's what I got.
That's it.
That's it, bro.
That's all wow I'll look upmore stuff while you guys are
talking.
I'm sorry, you, basically.
Speaker 3 (15:53):
I'm sorry, okay, don't um, it's okay, I have an
interesting one, so I today I'mgoing to be talking about
microsoft coffee.
Basically, what had happened wasin the 90s microsoft was
microsoft was really trying forthis, like relatability, um,
(16:15):
like theme, and they triedmaking things like super simple
for their users.
Um, they had something calledlike uh, well, first and
foremost, um, windows 95 wasvery big and, um, because it was
such a simple, you know,program to use, they did
Microsoft Bob, which people werelike all right now you're just
(16:38):
talking down to me, I'm notstupid Microsoft, because it was
very, very just likerudimentary, like Matt, do you
know what Microsoft Bob is?
Speaker 2 (16:48):
That's like the automated voice thing, right
that's like the automated voicething.
Speaker 3 (16:56):
Right, so it it.
When it first came out it waslike a um, it was basically a
computing, like a system, kindof like windows 95, but they
dumbed it down to the extremewhere it was like oh, this is
your home computer, so it theymade like the desktop it was
supposed to be like an assistant, like it was like the
pre-credited, like the virtualassistant thing, right yeah,
kind of, and like it.
Like it popped up as this likeimagery of like it was your
(17:18):
living room and then like if youwanted to, um like open a file,
there's literally like a filecabinet, and you like click on
the file cabinet and like it waslike very rudimentary people
are like all right, this isn't apoint and click like children's
game.
This is my computer dog, Idon't need this shit.
Speaker 2 (17:34):
Um yeah but, um, the the voice for bob is like when
people think early text tospeech, the voice that they hear
in their heads is probably themicrosoft bob voice.
It's that voice is like I likea bob voice.
(17:57):
It's that voice is like I like,uh, like john madden like uh,
you've heard that you've heardyeah, you've heard the microsoft
bob voice before.
Speaker 3 (18:03):
Hello, winrar yes, exactly um, but so uh, this is
around the time.
You know, clippy was a thingthat people were like all right,
he's fucking here, whatever,but they were going for that
relatability thing they weregoing for.
Speaker 2 (18:17):
No, I'm thinking of Sam Bob, who's Sam Microsoft.
Sam is the voice.
Speaker 3 (18:23):
Oh gotcha, I have no idea, but they were going for
that relatability and they'regoing for what's hip and
happening and wow.
And now?
So for those of you that don'tknow, microsoft was stationed
out in Seattle.
That's where it got its startupand everything.
Guess what else got its startupin Seattle in the 90s?
(18:45):
Starbucks, baby Starbucks.
So what's the most relatablething to people in the 90s in
Seattle?
Coffee.
Ironically, the programminglanguage, java, was also pretty
brand new.
Java was like a year old whenthis whole thing was going on.
(19:07):
So there are these employeesthat worked at Microsoft okay,
and these employees like to pokefun at microsoft, basically
because microsoft was seen asmaking worse dumbed down
versions of already existingthings.
Ie um, people complained aboutearly, like, internet explorer
being likea ripoff of netscape.
(19:28):
Um, photoshop was a ripoff ofanother program I don't remember
the name of it, um, but peopleare like, yeah, microsoft's
basically just taking, uh, likeexisting programs and dumbing
them down, making them stupid.
So of course, it makes sensethat microsoft would come out
with their own programminglanguage, just like java.
(19:50):
They can't call it Java, sowe'll call it Coffee.
So Microsoft Coffee was born.
These employees spent a fewweeks making this fake Microsoft
Coffee product.
They made a physical box.
They had a, because, remember,back in the day, fucking
software and shit came in a box.
(20:12):
People A lot of you that may belistening are young where it's
just like you just download shit.
No, you had to buy this stuff.
Fucking the internet came on aCD back in the day.
It's not something you justfucking got, you had to get it.
Aol sent you a disc and, if youwere lucky, it got one in a
fucking cereal box that gave youa day of free internet along
(20:33):
with captain crunch's video gamewith the crunchlings in it.
Speaker 2 (20:38):
Uh, there's an episode of podnancy plays where
chris and I play like some ofthose old shitty like cereal box
demos I think you guys play thechecks dooms, yeah, yeah I, I
want to do more of that.
Speaker 3 (20:49):
We should do more of that I would love to play that
Captain Crunch game.
That'd be awesome.
Let's do it one time.
So they made this fake product.
They even went so far to makinga logo.
They made a fake production anddistribution list.
They even made a press releasefor Microsoft Coffee and sent it
(21:11):
to local news stations.
As part of this big old fuckingprank, people were sent out
these barcodes that would givethem a discount on purchasing
Microsoft Coffee.
But whenever you went to aretailer to try to get your box
of Microsoft Coffee, guess whatwasn't in stores?
Guess what was on the shelfMicrosoft coffee.
(21:34):
That's what.
No one had it.
The jig was up and Microsoft wasfucking pissed about this.
So Microsoft sent out a.
They had their legal team sendout a mass like letter to their
employees and they're like hey,we're legal, we're lawyers,
we're looking into this shit.
(21:55):
You fucked up, we're gonnafucking find you, bro.
And in the letter it even saysthey're like bill gates is not
happy.
Bill gates is not amused bythis situation at all.
So, bill gates, you pissed offthe man.
There's that video.
You pissed off the coolest guyever.
There's that video of himjumping over a swivel chair.
You pissed that guy off.
How dare you.
(22:18):
So the employees you knowappropriately enough decided to
never come forward with what wasgoing on for years.
Everyone stayed silent, so thelegal team couldn't fucking find
them.
It wasn't until like I want tosay it was like 20, it was like
20, like 15 or 16 or somethingwhen one of the guys that worked
(22:42):
on the print came forward andwas like I fucking did that shit
.
There was a couple of us.
It was awesome, but it's toolate for them to do anything to
us.
So fuck you Microsoft.
Now, if you try to look upMicrosoft Coffee, there are no
news articles on this.
People have went to newspaperarchive websites to see if
(23:04):
there's any news articles oranything on this.
Nothing, there are no newsarticles, no newspapers that
reference Microsoft Coffee atall.
However, one person did have aVHS tape of a local news station
talking about Microsoft Coffee.
Now, matt, I'm not on Twitchright now.
(23:25):
I don't know if you're playingthe clip or not.
I am Cool.
Now, this video for those ofyou that are just audio
listeners this video is a guyrecording his TV that is playing
a VHS tape.
And this VHS tape, you knowit's doing that classic VHS tape
thing was kind of glitching outhere and there Um but it's a
(23:48):
news acre talking about.
Microsoft coffee and he'sholding a coffee analog or it
looks like that Um, but the uh,the, the news anchor is holding
a physical copy of the Microsoftcoffee, uh, a box.
As there's a lot of peopleonline that are like, oh no,
this is fake, like this is madefor this bit, this is just a
(24:08):
joke.
But a lot of what's going on onthis videotape does seem to be
somewhat real.
First and foremost, if youlisten to the audio of the tape
the way they talk about thingsyou can kind of tell that the
internet is still this new thing.
It's like got that, like it'sthe way they speak, that kind of
sells it a little bit like.
(24:29):
They're like, oh, this new thingcame up on the internet today
and it's like all right, yeah,no one talks like that um, and
the news anchor that's actuallymessing around with the box and
everything, he's an actual newsacre.
You can find him if you canlook him up and find him.
I forget his name, but he's aactual, legit news acre.
So this does look like it's alegit um broadcast, not a, not a
(24:51):
fake or altered one.
And if it is a fake, they did adamn good job, cause it looks
pretty good.
Um, but that's Microsoft coffee.
Uh, a pretty fun prank wherepeople were just like what if
microsoft did shitty java?
And uh, I got a little out ofhand.
That's hilarious to me, that'spretty silly.
Speaker 1 (25:10):
I like shit like that .
I've been, uh, I've beenactually watching like a lot of
random youtube channels aboutjust like the history of the
internet and like aim and aoland shit like that lately.
So it's kind of fun to like Idon'tOL and shit like that
lately.
So it's it's kind of fun tolike I don't know.
Go back to that like earlyinternet era where people were
like on the, the worldwide web.
Today this happened and you'relike oh, I forgot.
(25:32):
People like didn't talk likethat.
Speaker 3 (25:35):
Okay, I didn't know what the internet was.
Speaker 1 (25:38):
They're like yeah, I went to Nickcom and I played a
Flash game for a while While wewere surfing the web.
Speaker 3 (25:44):
I'm like, okay, no one talks like that.
Meanwhile, my seven-year-oldass was over here playing the
fucking Lilo and Stitch sandwichstacker game Yep.
Speaker 1 (25:54):
Neopets fucking Gaia Online.
Speaker 3 (25:57):
All that good shit dog, all that good shit.
Speaker 2 (25:59):
You mentioned you were covering this, and I looked
it up because I wanted to knowmore about it too, and I found
this Reddit thread where peoplewere arguing that it is in fact
just made up.
And I was enthralled by thisReddit thread because yeah,
what'd you find?
There were people that were likeso this news broadcast is
(26:19):
totally bullshit, right, is whatthey were saying were people
that were like uh, so this newsbroadcast is totally bullshit,
right, and that is what theywere saying.
They were like why wouldsomebody just record it?
Can they not just record a vhs?
And I'm like, dude, I don'thave the shit.
I'm amazed that this person hadthe shit in their house to play
a vhs tape one yeah two, Idon't have something to fucking
record a VHS tape Like.
(26:39):
I guess if you have a capturecard that's got like composite
on it, maybe, but like mostpeople don't have that
technology in their houseanymore, I feel like him,
recording the TV playing the VHSadds a little bit more of like
an authentic, like shows.
Speaker 3 (27:00):
That's more authentic Because if they just uploaded
the VHS in, in theory you coulddo.
That's easier to edit thansomething that's being put on
the tv, you know, because youhave to deal with like glitches
or something that might happento the tv if you're trying to,
you know, falsify something onthat right.
But like if you, if you candoctor and make shitty looking
vhHS footage easy and uploadthat, Right.
Speaker 2 (27:21):
Well, the OP from the Post was arguing that it was
clearly fake because there isabsolutely no mention of this
anywhere, like you were saying,until the Medium article came
out in 2021.
And he was like you would thinkif somebody, if this had
happened in 1996, like microsoftwas a big deal, people are
(27:45):
going to talk about the latestmicrosoft thing, there would be
some mention of it somewhere,but there there's nothing.
And so I kept going and I waslike, man, damn, maybe you've
got a point.
And then I got down to thesection where they were like the
news broadcast is fake.
And then somebody was like, nah, I lived in in the Seattle area
in the 90s.
I'm pretty sure that news anchoris this person who used to be
(28:08):
on this TV show or on this TVchannel.
And I was like, oh shit, he'sgot him.
He can verify that this is it.
And then somebody else was likenah, that's not that woman,
this is that woman and this issomebody else.
And else was like nah, that'snot that woman, this is that
woman and this is somebody else.
I was like, oh shit, we're backin it.
And and then somebody else waslike no, I lived in seattle in
(28:29):
the 90s and the guy is this guy.
And then uh posted his name isit's keith eldridge and yeah,
yeah, it's that guy.
Speaker 3 (28:39):
So yeah, and he's a news.
That's it, keith eldridge.
Thank you, yeah, yeah, he's areal guy.
Speaker 2 (28:43):
So no, this is a real news broadcast from 96, so this
is definitely yeah, yeah and um, I imagine too what might have
happened.
Speaker 3 (28:52):
Why there's no record of it in like newspapers or
something, because it was caughtby microsoft relatively quick
after like um, yeah, and youdon't want to fuck with
microsoft's legal team soexactly.
I imagine once it was discovered, microsoft's legal team went to
the local stations and, likenewspapers, it was like you
don't print shit about this.
We have bill gates money.
(29:12):
You remember that, know yourplace.
And then they just were like,all right, rip it up, we're out.
We're out.
Because I feel like back thenyou know it was I don't know you
couldn't really have.
I mean, I guess you could dolike a fucking what's it called?
What's that like the sun orwhatever it is that like
newspaper that's just full ofbullshit.
(29:33):
That's like an alienimpregnated.
Speaker 2 (29:37):
Oh, you're talking about the tabloids.
Speaker 3 (29:42):
Yeah, the tabloids.
You would think a tabloid wouldpick up on this, but even if
they did, Nobody would believethem.
Speaker 2 (29:47):
Yeah, no one would believe it Exactly so.
Speaker 3 (29:49):
I'm pretty sure Microsoft's legal team just
cracked down on all these newsstations before they were able
to print anything about it.
Speaker 1 (29:56):
Because you could just do that.
It was the 90s.
Speaker 2 (30:03):
You could be like hey , I'm Microsoft, don't do it.
They got a guy in a suit, in abrown suit, who picks up a phone
.
Speaker 3 (30:05):
And punches it in.
Speaker 2 (30:07):
And holds it up to his ear and he's like listen.
Speaker 3 (30:10):
Get me the Chicago Tribune.
Speaker 1 (30:13):
Reveal in your stories.
Speaker 3 (30:16):
Yeah, yeah, that's.
That's what I gotoug.
What do you got?
Speaker 1 (30:26):
I got nothing, I bet okay bye everybody.
Um, all right, so my topic iscalled the cathode project.
Um, and it's it's a weird one.
So the Cathode Project was analleged DARPA funded experiment
that was leaked onto theinternet via a strange blog post
(30:49):
on a defunct info site in theearly 2010s.
Now we've heard DARPA before,so if that tells you anything,
face lasers, shit like that theymake weathers.
Speaker 2 (31:00):
So if that tells you anything, space lasers, shit
like that.
Yeah, we've talked about DARPA.
Speaker 1 (31:04):
They make weathers?
Yeah, so the original postclaims that the US military
researchers had developed asoftware tool that could
generate person-specific visualpatterns, video or image
sequences that would triggerneurological responses,
including dissociation, paranoiaor even memory blackouts.
(31:24):
Um, the name cathode supposedlystood for cognitive effect
trigger via heuristic opticaldata encoding and, in short,
this video could hack your brain.
Uh, not like subliminalmessaging, but something lower,
like closer to a firmware level,like perception.
Speaker 2 (31:45):
So damn straight to the source yeah, right.
Speaker 1 (31:49):
So the story starts spreading through like
conspiracy theory forums andearly youtube channels and,
according to the legend, uh,these leaked files a series of
strange like 30 second dot webclips are discovered on an old
flash drive purchased at agovernment auction in West
Virginia.
So each video was simply titledwith a color and a timestamp.
(32:12):
There was like green underscorezero, zero, four, two white
underscore zero, zero, zero,zero.
Yellow underscore 0319, etc.
And these clips end upcontaining nothing like overly
frightening, but it's just likestatic, some like weird archival
footage flickering lights, lowdroning sounds.
But if you watch them, peoplewho claimed or people who watch
(32:37):
them, claimed that they causednosebleeds, short-term memory
gaps, deja vu, hallucinations,mostly of geometric shapes, and
one widely circulated claimafter watching a video titled
Red underscore 0190 was that youwould wake up a few hours later
(32:59):
and have no memory of whathappened.
One person said that they wokeup two hours later and they had
a band-aid on their temple, andthey have no memory of them
putting a band-aid on theirtemple.
Just random shit like that.
Yeah, someone came in and justclocked them.
Speaker 3 (33:15):
They're like that's what you get for watching the
video.
Speaker 1 (33:20):
Yeah, right.
So by 2011, the internet urbanlegend channel started covering
the cathode project and the hoaxwent viral under the hashtag
cathode e-files hashtag catheterfiles hashtag.
Watch me put this catheter inthey're sticking videos of our
dickholes and people ended uphashtag watch me, put this
(33:41):
catheter in.
They're sticking videos of ourdickholes.
And people ended up starting toupload fake reaction videos of
themselves having seizures orspeaking nonsense.
And basically schools andcollege campuses banned students
from watching anything that wasrumored to be part of the
cathode project.
Speaker 3 (33:56):
Bonjour, crazy gibberish.
Speaker 1 (34:00):
Bonjour, bueno, si of the cathode project.
Bonjour, crazy gibberish.
Bonjour, bueno, see um.
And then so a 15 year old inarizona who was hospitalized
after watching a replica videoand having what his parents
claimed was a psychotic break.
Uh, turns out to be a prank andthe teen had taken sleeping
pills beforehand.
Um and but yeah so the cathode,cathode, panic.
(34:21):
Uh ends up hitting the news and, soon after, youtube and reddit
began quietly removing all thecontent.
And then the subreddit r slashcathode, uh proof was
permanently banned in 2012, withthe note removed due to public
health concerns.
Oh shit, what do we got?
Speaker 2 (34:39):
here.
We got some pain.
I pulled a mic.
Speaker 1 (34:43):
I fucking doored it.
Speaker 3 (34:45):
Quick Go, doug Go fast For those listening Speed
run.
Speaker 1 (34:50):
Yeah, all right, anyway, so yeah, so these places
start removing all this stuffYouTube and Reddit and
conspiracy theorists start tolose their fucking minds, right,
youtube and reddit?
And?
Um, conspiracy theorists startto lose their fucking minds,
right?
So all this evidence, um wasthat was claimed by the
believers is all fuckingfabricated.
Um fake request screenshots, uh, showing redacted documents
(35:13):
with, uh, like you know, youknow, redacted stuff all over it
.
Um an interview with darpa,whistleblower, who said the
project was testing, uh,non-lethal information warfare.
Um, and rumors that watchingall seven clips in a row would
make you forget your own namefor 30 minutes.
Just all of this shit.
Um, and yeah, by 2013, the hoaxwas dead or scrubbed, and
(35:37):
believers said that thegovernment removed it all from
the internet and that it couldhave just possibly been a
short-lived ARG designed totrick gullible edgelords.
Speaker 2 (35:47):
It was scrubbed.
Speaker 1 (35:50):
Yeah, you know, when you can just scrub everything
about something on the internet.
Speaker 2 (35:53):
Yeah, when you can delete that picture, like Mariah
Carey did, what?
Speaker 1 (35:59):
So yeah, that's the project?
Speaker 3 (36:04):
Was it a nudie hold on?
Speaker 1 (36:08):
it showed her tits, but her tits actually had their
own, like real people facesmaybe I'm making up a lot of
people knowing I'm confusing herwith a different person who's
another pop star, that isn't uhuh, uh michael jackson jackson
was michael jackson jenniferlopez, someone with the last
name jack.
Speaker 3 (36:29):
Miss Jackson.
Speaker 1 (36:31):
I am for real, um, but yeah, did you guys find that
was that interesting?
Was that a good hoax?
Speaker 3 (36:38):
uh-huh, I loved it.
Speaker 1 (36:39):
That was a fun hoax yeah, well it was, I made it all
up, literally there's no suchthing as the cathode project.
I made the whole thing up witha little help, but I made it up
why would you do that to me?
Because, because we literallycan and there's no repercussions
for it so the hoax was?
you told a fake story yeah, thehoax was that I made a hoax,
(37:03):
pranked and it's not real, gotyour ass, but the real, the real
inception here, though, thereal thing is that I want
everyone listening to take abreath, take a seat.
Speaker 2 (37:14):
Actually, if you're not taking a seat, take a seat
are you about to tell me thatsomething else is made up, doug
yeah, so I'm about to telleveryone that we made up some
shit and it's going to be funnybecause no one called us out on
it yeah, everything we do is
Speaker 1 (37:30):
fake.
We're AI-generated videos andthey don't even know.
In 2024, we did somethingcalled Dilute-E-Thon.
That was real.
We really don't.
Let me just get that out of theway.
Speaker 3 (37:48):
We took all that money, fuck you.
Speaker 1 (37:53):
That really happened because just that to be fair.
So we did do that, that's agood disclaimer.
Speaker 3 (38:00):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (38:02):
To get that, just nip that in the bud real quick.
However, we did an episodeduring Dilute-E-Thon and that
episode was entitled ephemeralsensations, and we have been
waiting for more than a year nowfor someone to just be like,
hey, that's not real, thatdoesn't exist, that's not a real
(38:24):
thing that you cover.
Speaker 2 (38:25):
My favorite thing about that episode is there are
people commenting on it that arelike arguing facts about it,
like no, mushrooms don't workthat way yeah, we made that shit
up.
Doesn't exist, it wasn't realJad should be teammate.
Speaker 3 (38:41):
Jadeth.
He's kept it quiet this wholetime, but he did figure out that
it was a fake when we were likeit took heavy prodding because
we mentioned something aboutApril 1st and I'm pretty sure
Jadeth just googled it that itwas a fake.
Speaker 2 (38:50):
Yeah, when we were like it took heavy prodding
though, because we mentionedsomething about April 1st and
I'm pretty sure Jada justGoogled it and it was like,
Since we posted it on April 1st,it was like the first result if
you Google April 1st, Deluty.
Yeah, but either way yeah wefaked it, we made it up, didn't
happen, not a fiction Complete.
Speaker 1 (39:06):
Not fiction, Complete fiction.
Yeah, we've been waiting forsomeone to.
We literally were like allright, the first person who
tells us that this is fake getsa t-shirt.
And yeah, it never ended uphappening.
No one said anything, so goodjob listeners.
Speaker 3 (39:24):
Yeah, Shows that you guys just take what we say for
granted.
Hey, you know what Swag.
Just tell you whatever andapparently you believe it.
We can just do another one ofthose.
Let's just make up everyepisode after this and see if
anyone catches on.
Speaker 1 (39:37):
It's all fake we should probably do another AI
generated episode, though, likewhere we all have random scripts
and maybe we'll try and not dogJason so hard this time.
Speaker 3 (39:50):
Laughing, laughing, laughing hi welcome to the and
not dog Jason so hard this time.
Hi, welcome to Lockout theInternet.
I'm Jason.
Speaker 2 (40:01):
I'm already drunk, according to the AI, and you
would think your initialreaction may be well, maybe just
nobody listened to that episode, but it's got just as many
plays as any of our otherepisodes.
It's over 1,000, maybe 2,000people have listened to that
episode at this point.
Speaker 3 (40:19):
Yeah yeah, it's a normal episode and just no one
caught on.
And you know what?
I'm glad that you just takewhatever I say as correct,
because you know what I'm goingto say it right now I'm the most
attractive member of diluity.
Okay, you could take that forgranted, for truth that's a bank
100 truthful um.
Speaker 1 (40:40):
I'm fucking six foot tall that's why we do really
fucking tall exactly like I'm atall.
Speaker 3 (40:46):
I'm a tall, hot man, and now you have to believe it
because I put it on there.
Well, thanks for joining us onthis weird trip down prank road
and hoax road.
I enjoy this.
Maybe we'll come back to morehoaxes in the future we'll see
but probably not because Dougcouldn't think of one.
So odds are he probably won'tbe able to again in the past.
So, or in the future.
(41:07):
So he probably won't do thisagain, but I'm glad we at least
tried it.
It's something different,something unique.
Next week we covered Doug's.
We do it.
We watch a stream of Doug dyinghis hair.
It's a good time for everybody.
