nightmare.

SPEAKER_01 (03:02):
Yeah, I'm gonna nightmare ever since our uh what
was it?
Uh Delity Lost and Founds orwhatever, the Lost Media
episodes.
I have been pretty into the lostmedia stuff recently.
It's been a good time.
Um we uh but yeah, we we just wejust gathered a bunch of weird
shit we found on Reddit, andwe're just kinda we're all

(03:22):
bringing it to the table.
Um who wants to start all right?
I'll start.

SPEAKER_00 (03:31):
I was about to volunteer, but then as I was as
I started to, I remember that Iforgot to ask if we have
actually talked about my firstthing before.

SPEAKER_05 (03:40):
Oh, that's actually yeah, we should as we bring
these up and go over them.
If you if we anyone recognizeslike a subreddit or like a post
or some shit, say something sowe can move on to the next one.

SPEAKER_00 (03:50):
We are going to get to the point in these because I
have already started forgettingwhat we've done in these
episodes, and also we haven'tall been on everyone.
So there's gonna come a timewhen we just repeat a story, and
you know what's gonna happen,you're just gonna have to live
with it.
You're just gonna have to livewith it.

SPEAKER_05 (04:07):
There are some that I pick that I I am 100% positive
have I don't think that has everbeen talked about ever.

SPEAKER_00 (04:13):
Nobody has ever talked about, not a single
fucking version.

SPEAKER_01 (04:17):
I'll start with mine.
So speaking of lost media, Ifound a bit of lost media that
was just recently found a monthago.
So this is comes from uh R/slashSpider-Man.
I was very happy to hear aboutthis one, extremely happy about
this one.
So this comes from a uh user,virtual dash reality 69.

(04:38):
Oh, also I'm skipping over uhhousekeeping because we don't
have any, we don't have any newsubscribers or anything.
So there's that.
But anyway, um this comes fromthis comes from a virtual this
comes from virtual dash reality69.
Um they found a lost deletedThor scene from Spider-Man 2

(04:58):
enter electro.
This game came out in 2001.
This deleted scene has been lostsince then.
The creators uh of the game theymade mention of a scene that
they created that involved Thor,but it never made its way into
production.
Well, fucking here we are 24years later, and there's just

(05:23):
this dude on uh Instagram, hisname is BobbyFan85.
And uh you can find theInstagram, the original
Instagram post with this, or youcan find a YouTube video.
Yeah, um, but he literally justsaid, Hey, um, I read an article
saying that there is this lostThora cut scene in Spider-Man 2
Enter Electro.

(05:44):
He's like, I had this on a harddrive somewhere, so it's assumed
that he worked for on theproduction of this game.
There's no like in-depthinformation on it.
He literally just says, I haveit saved on an old hard drive.
Um, let me see if I find it.
And then he also posts in thatInstagram post, he's like, Hey,
I found it.

(06:04):
The hard drive states that it'sdated October 16th, 2001.
So there's some credibility toit.
And yeah, like you, it's theentire cutscene, and it it looks
legit.
The voice acting sounds legit.
It's I recognize the voice actoris uh Chris uh Christopher uh
what's this fuck?
The guy that voiced Spider-Manback in the 90s uh anime series

(06:24):
as well.
Um but uh it's it's legit, andI'm very happy that this was
found because this uh the firstone and Spider-Man 2 and Electro
are two of my favorite games.
They they're the most nostalgicthing for me.
Um I I I thoroughly enjoy them.
Um but I just thought that wasvery interesting that 24 years
later someone just read thatthis deleted scene was Lost

(06:48):
Media, and he's like, Oh, I havea hard drive from 24 years ago
that I have it on it, justcoincidentally, you know?
It's wild.

SPEAKER_05 (06:58):
People keep a fuckload of shit just on their
hard drive.
I found a uh external hard driveof mine and it had like a bunch
of the uh the old like edits ofthat video channel that I used
to do, the toaster burn.

SPEAKER_01 (07:12):
Oh to oh toast burn, yeah.
I remember that.

SPEAKER_05 (07:15):
Yeah.

SPEAKER_01 (07:16):
I did still have it.
I found old tapes that I use onmy uh my VHS recorder that I
have here.
I found an old tape from highschool where they wanted us to
uh create a an ad for a productwe made, and I created my our
our school's mascot was thePanthers, so I made a cologne
called Sex Panther uh based offof Anchorman, and I made a whole

(07:39):
commercial for it off of thatVHS and I found the I found the
commercial.

SPEAKER_05 (07:42):
Um that's kind of hotline for you right now.
Yeah, right.
Okay, we're not gonna do that.

SPEAKER_01 (07:48):
If I can ever find a way to convert it to digital,
maybe I'll maybe I'll I'll dothat.

SPEAKER_05 (07:52):
But just do what all the old people do and just film
the screen.
I might.
We'll see.

SPEAKER_00 (07:57):
I take pictures of my monitor all the time and like
post them in group chest becauseI'm not gonna fucking screen
cap, download, say I did thatthe other day when I took that
picture of the guy who createdthe frozen the frozen burrito.

SPEAKER_01 (08:10):
He died.
I did that's what I did.
It's a roller coaster.
Yeah, but that was that was mybit.
I know I should have probablykept that for a lost media
episode, but I was very excitedto hear that um when I came
across this.
So I I wanted to talk about itnow.

SPEAKER_00 (08:25):
Very cool.
I was gonna try to play it foreverybody, but for some reason
YouTube will just won't load anyvideos.

SPEAKER_01 (08:32):
So fuck me, I guess.
Oh no, uh is there anotheranother fucking AWS problem?

SPEAKER_00 (08:38):
I don't know.
My internet completely went outthree times last night, so we're
we are rolling the dice tonight.

SPEAKER_01 (08:45):
Hell yeah, that's what I like to hear.
Um Jason.

SPEAKER_05 (08:50):
What do you got?
Um I have a lot that we couldlook at, but I think I'd like to
start this one off and tell meagain if you guys have covered
this or we've talked about it atall.
Um, but it's just it's a wholesubreddit and it's R slash O O E
R.

SPEAKER_01 (09:05):
O O E R.
No, we didn't talk about this, Idon't think so.

SPEAKER_05 (09:09):
Um so like if you if you just click on it, uh it
takes you to the front page, andyou're not gonna really know
what's kind of going on.
It's just a bunch of pictures,um with a bunch of fucked up
text.
A lot of the images are theyreally hurt your face and head.
Um, it's just a randomcollection of things, and like
one of the ones that you see upnear the top uh was posted two

(09:32):
days ago, and there's a lemonnext to a clipboard that says
niceness, and underneath itsays, I can with confidence
assure you you're unlikable andlikely to end up all alone and
sad.
Neat.
Um I like this place.
Yeah, and as you go down,there's you don't understand a
fucking single word that anyoneis saying, um, or what any of

(09:53):
the posts mean.
So what you have to do is youhave to click over to the uh the
about page.
Yeah.
Um, so there's a link up the topthat says, Welcome to Ore.
Um, it says, What is Or?
Or is an experimental techsupport forum founded on the

(10:15):
philosophy that everyone hassomething they can contribute.
Notice how no one said anythingabout useful, no one said
anything about if it haspertaining.

SPEAKER_00 (10:26):
Something they can contribute.

SPEAKER_05 (10:28):
Yeah.
Um, and it's it's pretty normal.
Um, it goes over how does itwork and basically it says like
ask a question.
If you ask a question, answer aquestion.
That way everybody gets theanswers they need.
Um it says that uh why is itnamed this?
It's named Ur.
It's from a passage from theclassic, the classic 1832
memoir, Life and the Pursuit ofBeepis by Sir Frederald

(10:51):
Middleman.
Yeah.
It says, oftentimes when we findourselves drowned in our
insecurities, we considerself-destructive activities such
as disabling support for IPv6 orattempting to program a game in
PHP.
When I find myself thinking ofthese terrible thoughts, D-H-O-T
S, I go to my router and enablewired equivalent privacy, and I

(11:13):
sit on the floor and listen tothe beautiful sound of WEP.
And then underneath it justgoes, oh, oh, oh.
I guess you could call me anoor.
And remember, this is from 1832,it's a memoir.
Um okay.
After this, it goes.

SPEAKER_00 (11:33):
So the IPv6 Wi-Fi in 1832 made this noise.

SPEAKER_05 (11:38):
I guess so.
I guess so.
Or when you attempt to program auh game in PHP.

SPEAKER_00 (11:45):
Um in 1832.

SPEAKER_05 (11:47):
Yeah.
In 1832, yeah.

SPEAKER_00 (11:49):
That was probably pretty difficult in 1832,
honestly.

SPEAKER_01 (11:52):
Probably.
Well, yeah, they had the CivilWar to take care of as well, and
now they have to deal with theirWi-Fi problems.

SPEAKER_05 (11:59):
Um, so as you scroll through this, like, what is
this?

SPEAKER_00 (12:02):
I'm just like imagining smart muskets and like
and like like the Wi-Fi goes outand so they can't reload or pull
the trigger.
It's like please please updatefirmware.

SPEAKER_01 (12:14):
They put GPS on the cannonballs.

SPEAKER_05 (12:20):
My god.
Um, so after you get this littleintroduction into why they call
it or uh it asks, Does it work?
Haha, lemon.
Will my parents ever accept me?
Void reciprocate parentheseslove.
My eyes.
So one thing you'll notice is alot of the posts.
My eyes are fucking that's justfucking a nightmare to look at.

(12:40):
Um, and it says or style sheetis a beautiful example of 31st
century design created by yesternow's top graphic designers.
And then we get an obvious one.
What does FAQ stand for?
FAQ stands for the unstoppablemarching of time that is slowly
guiding us all towards aninevitable.
Oh my god.
That's that spells tum fum owall o Ib Death.

SPEAKER_00 (13:03):
Okay, so I got I gotta say I gotta say that I I
was looking at this on newReddit because that's I'm not
logged in on this, and that'swhat it defaults to.
And so uh when I read the stylesheet thing, I was like, oh,
what does this look like on oldReddit?
It looks a mess.
It's it's a fucking mess.

SPEAKER_05 (13:21):
It is pink, just it burns your eyes.

SPEAKER_00 (13:24):
Yeah, oh, and it just moves you to different
sections of the page on its own.
Oh, yeah, okay.

SPEAKER_05 (13:30):
So I I I'm so yes, so if you do the like the new
stylized version of Reddit,you're not gonna get the full.

SPEAKER_00 (13:35):
You're not gonna get this subreddit at all unless you
go to old.reddit.com slash rslash oor.

SPEAKER_05 (13:43):
Yes.
I understand now.

SPEAKER_00 (13:45):
I was I under I understand more and less at the
same time.

SPEAKER_05 (13:49):
Oh, it makes sense.
Um, so as we move through it, wego we uh get another um sub tab
that says, Do I cry too much?
A healthy adult cries threetimes a night.
If you cry less than this, hesuggested you remedy this by
watching Grave of Fireflies.
If you cry more than this,please see a doctor, as you may
be experiencing a fatal oilleak.

SPEAKER_01 (14:10):
I don't I don't get healthy for people to create a
website that looks like this.
Like I know it's kind of thebit, but how do you even Matt?
We are exploring this on theYouTube video, right?

SPEAKER_05 (14:27):
On the old video, oh yeah, we're looking at it.

SPEAKER_00 (14:31):
Um looking at this core game.

SPEAKER_05 (14:36):
One of my favorites is the why am I here?
Um, and all of it's all it saysunderneath is edit eat, edit,
nothing, edit goo, edit how,edit how to google, edit google
eat, edit please google, editfear, edit Discord, how to
Discord, duh.
It's just it's a bunch offucking nonsense.

SPEAKER_00 (14:56):
And so the it's you're skipping the you're
skipping the important partafter the edit because it says
it'll it says edit how togoogle.
Oh man, I am not good withcomputer, please help.
It says that after every singleone.

SPEAKER_05 (15:12):
Um and that goes on for a minute.
Um, you also have a bunch oflinks.
Um, there's an uh there's abaking recipe you can look at,
which just takes you right thefuck back to the beginning and
the top of the page in adifferent window.
Um you can also check out uhOman Burn Key Lime Pie.
Oh is that related to coachingcoochies?

(15:35):
We don't know because it's thetitle with a blank post.
Unless you're looking at the oldum actually, I should be looking
at that.
I I'm trying not to use the oldReddit because I can't fucking
read on that one.
It's really hard.
Um, but there's a bunch of thesenonsensical links.
Um it's it's this is a wholemystery.

(15:57):
You could spend fucking monthson this site just scrolling
through shit and trying to findout what the hell is actually
going on while keeping in mindthe uh what is or section?
And so I had a lot of fun justscrolling through this, looking
around.
It's it's absurd.
It's it's definitely out there.

SPEAKER_01 (16:13):
I am in how did it come to be that you came to
this, Jason?

SPEAKER_05 (16:21):
How did you actually you know what?
There's a there's a tab forthis, and it's called Why Have
You Forsaken Me?

SPEAKER_00 (16:28):
Why have you forsaken me?

SPEAKER_01 (16:33):
That'll do it.

SPEAKER_05 (16:35):
Yeah, it's it's just a bunch of it's a bunch of
chuckle fucks and people wholike nonsensical shit, I think.
Um but it's supposed to beliterally everything ever.

SPEAKER_01 (16:49):
All the time.

SPEAKER_05 (16:50):
All of the time.

SPEAKER_01 (16:52):
A little bit of everything all of the time.
Well, that's I was gonna sayinteresting, but I think the
word I'm looking for is harmful,terrifying.
Harmful's a good one, yeah.
Worrisome.

SPEAKER_00 (17:07):
I think I think I have more microplastics in my
balls after looking at this.

SPEAKER_05 (17:14):
I I wouldn't doubt that at all.
All right.
What do you got for Folemule JSimpson?

SPEAKER_00 (17:19):
All right, I got a couple of long stories, and so
we're I'm gonna read my firstone, and if we have time for the
second one, I'll do it.
And if if not, uh I'll move itto the next episode because I
really like the second one.
But I'll start out with thefirst one.
This is one I feel like maybeI've mentioned this on the show
before, so maybe we've donethis, but have have we talked

(17:40):
about spontaneous age?
No.
Okay, so the title of the firstpost is I Did Heroin Yesterday.
I'm not a drug user, and I'venever done anything besides pot
back when I was a teen.

SPEAKER_01 (17:53):
Oh no.

SPEAKER_00 (17:54):
Yeah, okay.
So so you guys don't know whatI'm talking about.
All right.
I'm gonna read the whole firstpost and then summarize the
events that follow.
So the first post reads asfollows 16 years ago on Reddit
on Ask Me Anything bySpontaneous H.
I've never been a drug user.
I drink once in a while andsmoke pot years back when I was

(18:14):
a teen in high school a fewtimes, and that's it.
I'm 24 now.
I have a master's and awell-paying full-time job.
Yesterday, I was walking throughWashington Square Park where I
pass every day, and there arealways people there looking to
sell drugs.
They usually don't solicit drugsto you unless you stop and stand
near one of them for some reasonor look like you're looking for
something.
Yesterday, I happened to stop bya row of benches to check some

(18:36):
messages on my phone when adealer on the bench to my right
asks if I need anything.
My life has been pretty boringthe last few years, and I feel
like I haven't really lived,taken any risks, or done
anything crazy, so I figured,what the hell?
Maybe I'll buy some pot.
It's been a while.
I said yeah, and after asking meseveral times if I'm a cop, he
gives me his number and tells meto meet him at the fast food

(18:57):
place several blocks away andthat he would hook me up.
I say alright and nervouslycheck to make sure I have cash
and go meet this shady lookingdude.
We sit down and after houndingme, asking if I'm a cop, he asks
what I need.
I tell him that I just want adime bag, and he says something
like, Nah, sorry man, I onlysell half ounces.
You can take that and I've gotsome Coke and H.

(19:18):
At this point, I didn't want tobuy half an ounce of pot.
I probably never smoked morethan an eighth of my life, but
then I started considering hislast word, heroin.
I've heard so much about it andhow crazy addictive it is, and
I've seen it in the movies andTV.
I'm thinking The Wire here, oneof my favorite shows.
And it really started tointrigue me.
I've always wondered what itwould be like to do heroin.

(19:39):
Out of nowhere, I say, I'll takethe H and we do the deal there.
I give him cash under the tableand he slides me a small order
of fries with a little stampedwax baggie in it, and then he
tells me to let him leave first.
I put it in my pocket and thennervously race home, my heart
racing, cannot believing what Ijust did.
I held onto that bag in mypocket, palm sweating the whole
ride home.

(19:59):
When I got home, I opened thebag and dumped some golden
flakes and powder on my glasscoffee table.
At this point, I don't even knowwhat to do.
I know you can snort heroin, butI look it looked all flaky, so I
try to remember how they did itin the movies, but they always
seem to inject it in film, so Istart Googling how to snort
heroin, like an idiot, and thenI do a little research on the
stuff and how much to take.
I used a card to get it into afine powder and then move a

(20:21):
small bump to the side, which Iinhaled through a dollar bill.
I didn't feel anything yet, so Isnorted a small line which was
essentially half the bag.
I waited and in a few minutes Ihad the most pleasurable feeling
of pure relaxation and blisswash over me.
I just sat there and everythingfelt amazing.
I nodded off and it was great.
I had the TV on but wasn'tpaying attention.
I must have sat around for fourhours doing nothing but feeling

(20:43):
total pleasure.
It was like a full body orgasmtimes ten that kept going on and
on.
When I would nod off, it feltlike I was in a pure conscious,
lucid dreamlike state.
Sometimes it felt like I wasleaving my body.
At this point, I did the rest ofit and I stayed up all night and
must have been high for tenhours straight.
I might have slept at one point.
It's hard to tell the differencewhen you nod off and everything
feels good regardless.

(21:03):
Just the feeling of being undera blanket was amazing.
I was blown away by the power ofthis drug and just how orgasmic
it felt.
I never understood why peopledid drugs before and got so
hooked on them, but now I seewhy.
I have the urge to do it again,but I will resist and not do it.
At least not for a long time.
I understand the addictionpotential and how someone could
easily tear apart their liveswith this stuff.
Heroin is pure powderedpleasure.

(21:25):
I actually feel proud of myselffor having the balls to do
something this crazy, and I feellike it was a valuable
experience and window into theanother world and a part of
society.
I will never forget the day Idid heroin.
Now, ask me anything.
Alright, this is just thebeginning of this story.
So he at a bunch of people askhim questions and stuff.
He talks about his experience.

(21:45):
There are a lot of people thatare like, do not ever do this
again.
You don't know what you've doneto yourself.
And he's like, Oh no, stoptelling me I'm gonna get
addicted to it.
I'll be fine.
We hear nothing from him again.

SPEAKER_01 (21:58):
At it, I'm not fine for a while.

SPEAKER_00 (22:00):
Oh, we get a whole second post.
And in this second post, hedetails the fact that it it
comes two weeks after the firstone.
He details the fact that he'sspent the last two weeks
shooting up.
And oh no, yeah, and um, or no,he's been doing it for the last
two weeks and he shot up for thefirst time today.

(22:21):
And it's just like this longpost about him just like
completely crashing out over thefact that he's completely hooked
on heroin now and he doesn'tknow how to stop, and he's gonna
go to Narcotics Anonymous andshit.
And there's a bunch of peoplereplying to him, saying like
like giving him advice andbasically telling him that his
life is over at this point andhe's gonna ruin his life.

(22:41):
And um, there's a third postwhere he talks about how he's
still struggling with it.
We don't hear anything from himfor six years, and six years
after this, he shows back up andhe posts an update.
Seven years, actually.
Um so eight years ago,Spontaneous H posts an update on

(23:02):
opiates recovery and says, sevenyears later, an update for
anyone who stumbles upon thisaccount in the future.
I don't know if anyone hereremembers me, but you can take a
look through my submissionhistory and get an idea.
It's not pretty and will takeyou through a journey of my
first time trying heroin to mylife quickly falling apart.
So take that as a warning.
It's graphic.
I was totally out of my mind,and you may not want to read it
depending on where you're at.

(23:23):
This is the first time I'velogged into this account in a
couple years, and I had a bunchof PMs, and people occasionally
mention this count in variousplaces on Reddit.
So I'll post a quick update herefor anyone who stumbles upon
this in the future.
I'm now almost six years cleanfrom all drugs and alcohol, and
life is good.
And then he talks a little bitmore about his life.
But basically, this guy triedheroin once on a whim, became

(23:46):
completely addicted for severalmonths, ended up going like
completely crashing out, ruininghis life, going to rehab, and
goddamn, is apparently uh cleanstill, or at least was four
years ago.
The last post was from a yearago.
Um yeah, it seems like he's hestill hasn't uh done it.

(24:11):
So he's doing alright now.
But it went real bad.

SPEAKER_05 (24:16):
At least it's a happy ending, because that
usually does not end that way.

SPEAKER_01 (24:22):
God damn.
Imagine Jesus Christ.
I've been good.

SPEAKER_03 (24:28):
Right heroin.

SPEAKER_05 (24:32):
But he only said I could buy an eighth of weed, so
I guess I'll buy heroin instead.
Well, sweet treat, you know?

SPEAKER_00 (24:40):
If we have time for my second story later, we'll
talk about why this isn't evennecessarily the worst thing that
can happen to you if you justtry drugs on a whim once.

SPEAKER_05 (24:50):
Oh good.

SPEAKER_00 (24:51):
Jesus Christ.

SPEAKER_05 (24:52):
Oh, I'm so yeah, we gotta make it there.
Mike!

SPEAKER_01 (24:56):
We gotta make it there.
Matt, I wanna hear.
Matt, for your convenience, Iput my links in that link list
for Matt document.
Okay.
My next one, I also labeledthem.
Uh, you're gonna want to openthe noodle one.
My next one is from R slash,what is it?

(25:17):
From Adamosk.
R slash uh from from userAdamosk.
They said, I found this in myGoodles pasta box.
And then uh basically it is acouple pictures here.
Goodle of Goodle pasta andsomething that they found inside
said pasta box.

(25:38):
Now they open up this pasta boxand they find what looks like a
printed piece of paper that hasjust a bunch of gobbledygook on
it.
And when I say gobbledygook, Imean it.
No, most of these aren't evenreal words, and if they are, it
don't make much sense.
For an example, here's onesentence.

SPEAKER_00 (26:00):
I just see in parentheses KKK Bear.

SPEAKER_01 (26:04):
Yeah, here's a here's a here's an example of a
sentence here.
Um so here's a here's one.
Um torch slash statue of lib.
This cis ties to Saddam, Lord ofRiggs, and time.
SS agents, fam, create div nonconfusion, conding us to be

(26:27):
controlled.
And then it's it it goes on likethat.
It's the ramblings of a madman.

SPEAKER_00 (26:33):
Bush, Obama, Oprah Musk locals.

SPEAKER_01 (26:37):
We didn't start the fight.
Um perfect.

SPEAKER_05 (26:44):
It goes on one of mine, by the way.
This this reminds me of of justjust if if we go to that one in
mind this episode or next,whichever, just try and remind
me of this piece of paper whenI'm talking about it.

SPEAKER_01 (26:57):
Okay, yeah, so they're like, I found this piece
of paper, and it I assume it'sjust nonsense, but what kind of
nonsense?
And the first the top person onit, their their uh comment says,
No way, that's a shoe shool killnote, a shool kill note.
I don't know how to pronounceit.
Yes, shool kill note, yes.
That is what yes, is that yourthing kill notes?

(27:19):
Yeah, is that your thing?
Yes, what are you gonna talkabout?

SPEAKER_05 (27:21):
One of the things that's one of the things I was
gonna talk about.

SPEAKER_01 (27:23):
Yeah, this okay, I won't go awesome.
I'll I'll leave the page out,but um, so you could talk more
in depth.
But he said, um, there's athere's a subreddit, our shul
shul kill notes.
I sincerely hope you live inPennsylvania, or else this has
gotten a lot more messy.
I've heard schizophrenicrambling, not a code.
Hundreds of people have tried tosolve it.
Probably don't eat the pasta.
Some random dude put that inthere, take it back to the store

(27:44):
and tell them about it.
That's a health hazard.

SPEAKER_00 (27:46):
I have heard it.

SPEAKER_01 (27:47):
So I Googled what the fuck.
Why?
So I Googled not just what aShuly Kill note is because he
kind of I mean, it's prettyself-explanatory what it is.
It's just a bunch ofgobbledygook, insane
schizophrenic ramblings.
But he said, I sincerely hopeyou live in Pennsylvania, or
else this has gotten a lot moremessy.
And that's what confused me themost.

(28:07):
Jason, did it if in you lookinginto this at all?
Do you reference Pennsylvania atall?
Do you know why that'simportant?

SPEAKER_00 (28:13):
Well, if he talks about the subreddit, he has to
because they're named after thecounty in Pennsylvania that this
is happening.

SPEAKER_05 (28:19):
Okay, yeah, that was essentially okay.
Do you want me to do you want meto elaborate a little bit just
on that small part?
Uh yeah, go for it.

SPEAKER_00 (28:26):
Why do we get so many places in Pennsylvania that
just have the most obnoxious topronounce names?
And then we get people in thecomments who are like, I'm from
PA, and it's blah blah blah.
Well, okay, good for you.

SPEAKER_01 (28:36):
I think my theory is because it's a big distributor
of coal.
And all that coal smoke andwhatnot destroyed their brains
and made them name things funny,and then Appalachia also
happens.

SPEAKER_00 (28:51):
It's boomers the state, is what you're saying.

SPEAKER_05 (28:53):
Yeah, well, yeah, I got it.
So the the reason that thisperson says that they really
hope that they found this inPennsylvania is because all of
these fucking notes that thatyou just talked about, the the
Shuil Killnotes, that subreddit,it's based in Schuylkill County,
Pennsylvania, and all of thenotes come from Schuylville

(29:14):
County, Pennsylvania.

SPEAKER_01 (29:15):
It's also a reference to uh there's a book
from 1906 by Ella Zerby Elliottcalled Old Schuel Kill Tales,
which chronic that which I guesstalks about folklore and history
in that county as well.

SPEAKER_00 (29:28):
All right, I looked up how to pronounce this.
Apparently, it's Skookle.

SPEAKER_01 (29:31):
Skookle.
No, it's not.
That's wrong.
Um too many letters for that.
Skookel.
But I guess that's honestly,it's really all I had behind it.
Jason, do you want to talk aboutthe subreddit then since you
were gonna bring it up?

SPEAKER_05 (29:44):
Or you're you fucking you bird scootered me
right into it.
Why the hell not?
Jesus.

SPEAKER_00 (29:49):
Or Skookil, yes, maybe.
I'm reading it and still notunderstanding.
S K O O K L is thepronunciation.

SPEAKER_05 (29:58):
This is like a Norwegian.

SPEAKER_00 (30:00):
I like Schoogle.

SPEAKER_01 (30:02):
Yeah.
That's why you play.

SPEAKER_05 (30:09):
Um, yeah, so I actually I came across the uh
Skullkill Notes um subreddit andactually That's hilarious.
I think that one might be fromNew York, which is it's in the
same area.

SPEAKER_00 (30:26):
See what I could imagine happening would be like
if these are showing up insupermarkets, like in packages,
there are grocery stores thatlike when grocery stores can't
sell stuff, they like it ends upin this like like basically it

(30:47):
seems like off-brand, likebranded things.
Like there's a ruler foods thatsells Kroger stuff that they
don't sell at the main Krogerstores, so it could end up
moving from wherever this camefrom.

SPEAKER_01 (31:01):
It's it's it's like an outlet mall of food.
Yeah, outlet that was what Ithat was what I was trying to
remember the name of.

SPEAKER_00 (31:06):
Yes, outlet mall grocery store basically.

SPEAKER_05 (31:09):
I will say that uh a lot of these images seem to host
notes found in pasta boxes.
Like here's a run Zani Linguinipasta box.
Big pasta doesn't want you toknow about this conspiracy.

SPEAKER_00 (31:22):
Anyway, Jason, explain what this is.

SPEAKER_05 (31:26):
So that's where you're gonna be really upset
because I people have beenworking on here.
So this was there is noexplanation.
This was created on September11th, 2023.
Hell yeah.
Um, and definitely this is theworst thing that's ever happened
on September 11th.
It literally is it's just peoplefinding these fucking notes,

(31:47):
posting them, and then justtalking about it, trying to to
understand.
So, like one of the one of theposts that I found was anyone
else find this a little spooky?
Because I mean, I get it, mostof these aren't supposed to have
meaning, but the words, terms,and ideas are packed that are
packed into each note.
I mean, it's all sort of triggerwords.
Don't get me wrong, an eeriestory, but it's just sort of
chilling.

(32:07):
Anyone else feeling this way?
Thoughts?
Sometimes I wonder if there's abigger, if there's something
bigger to this whole thing thanwe think.
Um, and the top comment saysit's somebody with mental
illness sharing all of theirconspiracy theories.
That part the part that bothersme is the notes are often found
in all different kinds of sealedfood products, so they have
access to those.

SPEAKER_01 (32:30):
I mean, it's it's not that hard to unseal a box.
Like if you're careful enoughwith it.
Not even that, but like if youtake like a box of like craft
mac and cheese or something,it's just held together by like
that little glue bit.
If you just take a razor blade,you can keep the glue intact
where you shove your thing in,close it back.

SPEAKER_00 (32:48):
A lot of those aren't closed on the sides
either.
If the thing inside is in a bag,so you could like pinch the top
of it and then just sticksomething in through like the
crack that opens up on the sideof the top.
Yeah, exactly.

SPEAKER_05 (32:59):
You just need two dabs of super glue for a fucking
cardboard box.

SPEAKER_00 (33:03):
It's not or they work at the factory and are just
shoving.

SPEAKER_01 (33:10):
But they just did their big spend their time.
Yeah.
He's on the conveyor belt justhe's on the conveyor belt just
and close the lid, no, close thelid, no, close the lid.

SPEAKER_00 (33:20):
He just comes to work with a bunch of them in his
pocket and just yeah.

SPEAKER_01 (33:23):
You just hear that song playing just did it, and
he's just putting them in.

SPEAKER_05 (33:31):
Um, somebody did decide to throw this in the chat
GPT.
Oh fuck, it's not loading now.
Of course it wouldn't.
Um, so it's obviously chat GPTis not perfect, and but it does
scour the internet, so it's a uhlarge language model, which
means it has access to a lot ofdifferent things that have been
typed out before, phrases thathave been typed out before on

(33:52):
the internet, and so it's that'sthe only way that it's actually
kind of smart.
Um, but there's it gave it likea fucking 12-point analysis.
Um apparently, these coded textsclaim according to JetGPT, the
coded texts claim that everymajor institution, governments,

(34:12):
corporations, religions, andmedia use ancient occult symbols
to show loyalty to hidden rulingforces, dragon kings or Saturn.
These elites use technology,chaos, and propaganda to
condition humanity into acontrolled new world order.

SPEAKER_01 (34:29):
Um it always they all use the same bullshit, like
hot buzzword, yeah, new worldorder.

SPEAKER_00 (34:36):
It says right-wing conspiracy blender, is all it
is.

SPEAKER_05 (34:39):
Yeah, exactly.
It's like somebody just wentonto R slash conservative and
then just downloaded every postand shat it into a fucking word
cloud.
Like that's kind of what'shappening here.
Um, but it'll actually it goesover uh the different there's
different uh symbols per system,there's different themes, you
have things dealing with Saturn,chronos, stars, sun, moon.

(35:00):
I mentioned Islam.
Yeah, you've got all sorts ofreal uh there's the Vatican, the
EU stars, Islamic crescent,Hindu swastika, Maltese cross.
Um, you have uh geometry.
So if anybody's into uh hiddengeometry, golden geometry,
perfect geometry, any of those.

(35:21):
I mean, it's like pseudoscience,I guess.
Um, this covers a lot of thatstuff.
It also uh deals with like thedevil horns, like raised horns,
um handshakes, waves, hand signsby celebrities or politicians.
Apparently they mean things, andthen it goes over the different
things that connect them all,which happen to be in the form
of animals and objects likebirds, torches, lions, trees,

(35:44):
flowers, and butterflies.
Um apparently, all of thisinformation is supposed it
supposedly comes from somethingcalled the quote unquote dragon
kings, which are the mythicrulers or bloodlines that are
linked to Atlantean, reptilian,or royal, or a combination of
the three ancestry, and it'sbeen preserved through the

(36:05):
Knights Templar, the Malta,Freemasonry, and Illuminati and
other elite families of theworld.
And this guy who's shovingletters in macaroni boxes.

SPEAKER_00 (36:15):
Yes, the Dragon Kings isn't guy.
Dragon Kings is in the one Mikefound Yeah.
Yeah.

SPEAKER_05 (36:24):
Uh it's in a lot of them.
I think that's like the main thehint the hinge pin of it.

SPEAKER_00 (36:28):
SS front for a tiny uh an older race called Dragon
Kings.
Okay.

SPEAKER_05 (36:37):
Um what else can I even say about this?

SPEAKER_01 (36:39):
I mean, this is gonna turn into fucking
spiritual awakening or whateverthat episode was.
We're gonna we're gonna do threeepisodes on this now.

SPEAKER_05 (36:49):
Or temple of the screaming electron.
Right.
Something like that.
Um, but yeah, like there's youcould spend again, you could
spend days on this fucking sitejust trying to comb through and
reading through it and trying tosolve things and putting pieces
together, and it's just fuckingit's weird.
It is so weird.

(37:09):
Um, because there's like there'slike five posts in a week every
week, like two days ago wasposted, three days ago was
posted, five days ago, ten days,ten days, ten days, ten days.
Like, oh people are talkingabout this shit all the time.
Um apparently, people are nowtrying.
There's a a bunch of people inthe Skullkill County,

(37:32):
Pennsylvania area that are goingto try setting up trail cams in
different areas where all ofthese notes have either been
found or suspected areas ofwhere they're being packed into
boxes, and they're gonna try andfind like how the fuck who's
doing this, why they're doingit, and where they're like how
they're the method of delivery,I guess.
Um, but there's also cross postswith a couple other subreddits.

(37:57):
Um one of them is oh, yeah,that's actually the one that
Mike just went out.
The the Goodles box is the onethat Mike went over on the R
slash what is it.
Um where else do they go?
They go on, I think it's on RBIin some point.
Somebody was super freaked outthat they their food had like a
note in it, and I didn't thinkthat could happen.
Um apparently this has beengoing on for a long, long time.

(38:21):
It's literally since 2023, butthat's when they started talking
about it.
Like, so I'm wondering ifthere's more of like a group in
the county.

SPEAKER_00 (38:29):
This comment on this one that Mike found says that
somebody found claim somebodyclaims they found one in
Franklin, Kentucky in 2008.
There's also a person on herewho claims that they found one
in Amsterdam.

SPEAKER_05 (38:42):
That's strange.
See, again, more notes.
It's it uh it seems to be pasta.
Like it's I've never seen anyother packaged food item.
It's just pasta.
There's like I I don't know whatit is.
Does he work at a like a pastaback boxing plant?
Is there a pasta boxing plant inSkullko County?
Well now I have to look this up.

(39:05):
Pasta boxing.
Um, but that's there's reallynot a whole lot more that I can
elucidate on this one.
It's just it's fucking strange,and it's just hundreds, if not
thousands, of people gettingthese weird gibberish notes that
seem to try and outlinedifferent parts of an
overarching conspiracy theory.
Wild.
Yeah, it's a it's a rabbit hole,that's for sure.

SPEAKER_01 (39:28):
Yeah, love to see it.
Do you the schizophrenia of itall?
Yeah.
I'm here.

SPEAKER_05 (39:39):
Oh, this guy will be whoever this is will be very
excited because as of January24th, 2025, there's a
multi-million dollar pastamanufacturing facility coming to
Scokel County.

SPEAKER_00 (39:49):
They heard, they heard and they were like, We
gotta visit.
We have to if you build it, hewill come.

SPEAKER_05 (39:57):
And come he did.
And come he did.
Um yeah, I I could go over somemore of these posts, but like
it'd just be me readinggibberish things that have some
buzzwords in it.
Like, it's it's it's say you'llsee Saturn, you'll see Dragon
Kings, you'll see uh NaziMozart.

(40:19):
Yeah.
This one's just attached to alike Dragonese nest through your
boss to a plant.
Just in the fucking woods.

SPEAKER_02 (40:27):
Alright.

SPEAKER_05 (40:27):
Yeah, that's all I got.
It's just it's the fucking notesover and over and over and over
and over again.
So thank you for for shoehorningme into that, Mike.
Hell yeah.

SPEAKER_01 (40:34):
I'm glad it worked out like that.
Hell yeah.
Um let's see, how much uh whattime are we at?
And do you want to do your nextone, Matt, or do you want to
save it for the next episode?

SPEAKER_00 (40:46):
We're at about 40 minutes.
I don't know.
It ties in really well with myfirst story.

SPEAKER_05 (40:51):
Hell yeah.
I want to go for it then.

SPEAKER_00 (40:53):
You yeah, you piqued my interest in chance.
So we me I mentioned before thatgetting addicted to heroin and
having it almost destroy yourlife is not the worst thing that
can happen after taking drugsonce.
I found I found what I thinkmight actually be the worst
thing that can happen for uhafter just trying drugs once.

(41:15):
And it isn't dying.
Dying would be better than this.
But this post is titled I Ifound this on one of those
threads that was like, what'sthe what's the worst or most
haunting thing you've ever readon Reddit that like stuck with
you?
And this post is from 10 monthsago from a man named Northstorm

(41:37):
03.
And the post is titled One DrugFueled Night Killed Me.
So I'm gonna read the first halfof this and then summarize the
rest of it because the post isvery, very long.
So if you want the whole thing,go check it out.
Um but it starts like thisJanuary 12th, 2020-24, will live

(41:57):
forever in infamy.
That Friday night irreversiblyturned my happy, healthy,
successful life upside down.
This is a tale of party drugs.
It's also a life and deathjourney I could have never
imagined in my wildest dreams.
Call it a harrowing dive intothe extremes of the human
condition or a case study at theintersection of medicine,
pharma, policy, and brainscience.

(42:18):
As the one who lived it, writingthis eleven months later is my
confession, assembling theshards of a shattered world into
one broken mosaic.
Here goes.
At my brother's fiftiethbirthday in Cabo, cocaine fueled
festivities, by no means a user,I am also not a novice.
I'm a typical millennial whonever looked for drugs, but is
not afraid to try somethingpassed on by friends.

(42:40):
For context, I've lived adrama-free life, successful by
any metric.
I have a bunch of advanceddegrees and manage a small but
thriving international company.
I'm also an understatedunderstated middle child by
nature, so making noise orhaving weird stuff happen is not
my deal.
Until that night, I'd coastedwithout anything major ever
going wrong.
Being in my early forties, mypartying days are in the past,

(43:01):
and January was the first timein probably a decade since
business school touching partydrugs.
Over several hours at a placecalled Bagatelle or Bagata, I
don't know, where the openingdinner of the three-day bash
took place, I had a dozen pluslines and bumps of coke, sipping
rum.
It was a festive, if over thetop scene, as our group of forty

(43:22):
danced atop the long birthdaytable, stepping over plates
while champagne magnums carriedbetween waiters were poured
directly into mouths likeparishioners taking communion.
It was not a typical Fridaynight, but all but all were
having fun celebrating my bro.
So, chemically speaking, cocaineand alcohol were the first
ingredients in my blood.
As midnight approached, I washanded by a banker I was handed

(43:45):
by a banker what I was told wasMDMA bought from San Francisco.
I'd taken Molly twice, once at awedding in Prague, before that
at a club in Aruba, and had goodexperiences.
I didn't particularly want toroll that night roll that night
in Cabo, being late and tiredfrom flying out of DC at the
crack of dawn, having justgotten back from Columbia days
before, so I nearly said nothanks.

(44:07):
But your brother only turns halfa century once, and I didn't
overthink it.
I split the cap in half with myfingers, swallowed what I
figured was a light dose, andkept on with the party.
The biggest mistake of my life,across all years.
That one changed everything.
When added to the cocaine, MDMAinstantly had a negative effect.
In previous roles I hadn'tmixed.
This time I felt an overwhelminganxiety.

(44:28):
An hour into that state, I hadto leave the after party.
I was consumed by unease andunable to talk.
When I got back to my room, Icouldn't sleep.
It was no surprise since cocainebelabors the process of settling
down, so I laid awake, passingout after sunrise.
When I awoke that afternoon, theangst hadn't abated.
I stayed in my room, skippingday two of the birthday bash,

(44:50):
waiting for the malaise to pass.
I'd never had a mood disorder ortaken a psyched, so long lasting
unease was entirely new.
Day three came and went with mecooped up, my phone filled with
messages as I skipped the closeof a 72 hour celebration.
And that's when the real problemstarted.
On the third night, when I triedto sleep, no sleep came.
None.
On day four, january sixteenth,I flew to Mexico City for

(45:13):
routine work meetings andevents.
The same pattern continued thatnight, and the one after.
No sleep.
By the end of the sixthsleepless night, having barely
scraped through with what havebeen an otherwise stress-free
obligations, I flew home to DC,assuming all would return to
normal in my bed.
Nothing changed back home.
A seventh sleepless night becamean eighth with an hour or two of
broken rest, constantlyspringing wide awake with clumsy

(45:36):
clums with churning anxiety.
It was as if my brain had gottenstuck in fight or flight mo
fight or flight mode with no offswitch.
In my prior life, a restlessnight, say from a red eye flight
before a big speech or a toughboard meeting, would lead to
sheer exhaustion the followingevening, crashing hard from the
lack of rest.
But catch-up sleep never camewith this this bizarre MDMA

(45:57):
insomnia.
I didn't get sleepy no matterhow many nights passed.
After two weeks, I knew in mygut something big was up.
After seeing my family doctor, Iwas referred to a psychiatrist
for the first time who began totreat me with introductory
sleeping pills, starting withtrazodone.
These didn't put a dent in theinsomnia, and I was rotated to a
stronger category ofprescription.

(46:17):
This goes on for quite a while.
So what ends up happening.
I have a trazodone prescriptionbecause I can't sleep.
And it works pretty well.
Uh it didn't work for this guy.
Neither does the next 40prescriptions that he's that
he's given.
He tries everything.
He tries just wearing himselfout during the day by just

(46:40):
running and like working outconstantly.
He he can't sleep, and it getsto the point where it's so bad
that like he has to leave hisjob and like his entire life
falls apart and stuff, andabsolutely no drug will work for
him.
He doesn't sleep for months, andhe gets to the point where he's

(47:02):
like, Alright, I'm done, I can'ttake this anymore.
And he tries to kill himself.
So he hangs himself in thewoods, and he passes out when he
hangs himself, and the ropesnaps, and he wakes up and
somebody has found him.
So they rush him to thehospital, and while he's in the
hospital, they try to like he hefalls asleep once and then wakes

(47:24):
back up and then it goes rightback to the way that it was,
except now he has to be treatedas a stroke victim because he
starved his brain of oxygen andlike stuff's starting to go
wrong with his brain.
So he tries to he like when thenurses aren't supervising him,
he tries to kill himself again,gets out of the hospital bed,
runs down the hall, throwshimself down six flights of
stairs, something breaks hisfall, and he's cracks his head

(47:47):
on the concrete, and that giveshim a serious brain injury to
the point where he now can nolonger like imagine things.
He can't see images in his headanymore, and he can't remember
what things look like or whatpeople's faces look like or
anything like that.
So now he can't sleep, he'stried to kill himself twice

(48:08):
unsuccessfully, and he has likesevere brain damage.
And this is like the state he'sin as he's writing this, and he
details like step by step thisentire account, and now he's on
like some sort of drug thatthey've given him that's like
one of the most closelycontrolled substances in the
entire world, and it doesn'treally work, but he's got like
bottles of it, and uh basicallyhe's just trying to like it's

(48:33):
been like 11 months of this, andwhat they think happened he's he
went to like several specialistsat different hospitals and
universities and stuff, and Ithe best theory that they've
been able to come up with isthat the mixture of the cocaine
and MDMA flooded his dopaminereceptors so hard that it just

(48:55):
killed them and now his hisbrain can't regulate things
chemically to get him to fallasleep.
Because the receptors that inhis brain that are needed to
like actually make him fallasleep just don't function.

SPEAKER_05 (49:15):
Holy shit.
What the hell?
Thank you.
You just can't go to sleep orwhatever?

SPEAKER_00 (49:23):
Yeah, he just he can't go to sleep because his
brain, like the process that hisbrain goes through chemically,
it it cannot do it.
And so he just can't go tosleep.

SPEAKER_05 (49:32):
Don't you don't you like don't you die?
If that like if that happens tothe floor, yeah, there's like a
record.

SPEAKER_01 (49:38):
Like there's a guy who went like a week without,
and he's like the guy that holdsthe record for longest without
sleep.
It's like a week or something.

SPEAKER_00 (49:45):
Yeah, but he wasn't he eventually went to sleep
because he could.
There is a disease where thishappens to people and they stay
awake for like years and they doeventually die, but like from
like some other cause, they havea heart attack or something
because it's super horrible foryour body.
But I I'm pretty sure thatdisease takes like years to kill
you.
And it is Jesus Christ that'ssomething else I've read before.

(50:08):
Like, there's this disease wherebasically what happened to this
guy can just happen to you, andit's like a it's a genetic
thing, and I think they likethey know the bloodline that has
it, and like I think everybodywho has it has like a maybe
agreed not to reproduce orsomething like that.
But the thing is with that, youdon't ha show symptoms

(50:30):
immediately, and it can justhappen later in your life.
So like if you have whatevergene causes that to happen, one
day you'll wake up and you'llnever go back to sleep in until
you die.
But you'll die in like a coupleyears because your brain your
body can't handle it.

SPEAKER_05 (50:44):
Yeah, because yeah, it's just stress it out over and
over and over and over again.
Fuck.
No.
God damn.

SPEAKER_01 (50:52):
No, thank you.

SPEAKER_05 (50:53):
Yeah, so if you ever find yourself laying awake at
night and wondering, are thereworse things than death?
Yes.
This lying awake every night.

SPEAKER_01 (51:01):
Yeah.
This Jesus Christ.
I will say there's nothing moremiserable than the like when
you're lying awake in bed andyou can't fall asleep, and it's
like, I have to be at work inthree hours.
I haven't fallen asleep yet.
You're gonna be fucking kiddingme.
That's just that your whole lifeworks.
Your whole life.

SPEAKER_00 (51:18):
There's a Mythbusters episode though,
where they show that if you justlay down and close your eyes,
even if you don't actually fallasleep, that it's like it's good
for like 40% of the amount ofrest.
Like, still doing your body gooddoing that.

SPEAKER_01 (51:34):
That's wild.
Thanks.
That really bummed me out, man.

SPEAKER_00 (51:39):
Um so the moral of the story, I mean, this is like
a one in a million thing, but healso does say that that the
person that diagnosed him withthis condition, this is not the
first time this has happened,and in particular with MDMA.
He said he links severalarticles and posts at the bottom
of the post where he that linkto other people that this

(52:01):
happened to them.
They did end MDMA once and theynever went back to sleep.

SPEAKER_05 (52:04):
God damn.
So you so oh my god, so you justhave there's like a gene or like
a uh a marker inside your bodythat if you do M the the
cocaine, well he said cocktailof MDMA.

SPEAKER_00 (52:18):
Well, he said that he's done he had done it before,
but he had never done it withcocaine, so it may have had
something to do with thecocaine.
But but it doesn't necessarilyhappen the first time you do it,
even if you've done it before.
But that there's basically justlike you're just rolling the
dice.
There's just a one in a millionshot that if you take Molly,
you're just never gonna wake upor never gonna go to sleep.

SPEAKER_05 (52:38):
Never sleeping again.
Fuck that.
That's we uh which which thisstory you guys know.

SPEAKER_00 (52:44):
I've never done MDMA, and I probably never would
have, but this has a hundredpercent turned me off on it.
Because even if the chances ofthis happening are incredibly
minimal, I know because of theway my brain works, the second I
pop this pill, this is all I'mgonna be able to think about,
and I'm gonna have a horribletime.

SPEAKER_05 (53:05):
Horrendous.
No, yeah, even if you yeah, evenif you don't, this wouldn't
happen to you anyway.
Yeah, it would ruin everyexperience you might ever have
with any kind of MDMA oracid-based hallucinogen.
Like, there's no fucking way.
Absolutely not.
Let's so in the OR, there's a umthere's something that can
happen to you, and it's calledmalignant hyperthermia.

(53:27):
And most like 90% of the time,you have no idea if you have the
triggers to set it off.
But basically, what happens isthe uh anesthesia agent that we
use, cepiflorane, is atriggering agent for it.
And what it does is it doesn'tit it deregulates your uh CO2
discharge from like your regularbreathing patterns, and you'll

(53:50):
see your temperature go fromlike 98.6, and if you let it go,
it'll get up to like 120.
You die at about 110.
Like that's probably the the thehottest uh body temperature that
anyone's ever been able towithstood, and that happens in a
matter of like 10 minutes.

SPEAKER_00 (54:06):
Your brain just your body just starts cooking itself,
you just turn into an easy bakeoven.
That's crazy, pretty much, yeah.

SPEAKER_05 (54:14):
And so, like the the the standard procedure is is we
go get a whole bunch of thesevials of the counteraction.
You literally, if the patient'sopen, we're supposed to fill
them with ice, whatever whatevercavity is open, you fill them
with ice, the ice up is pee, andyou reverse you do it's 60 vials
is one dose, which is a wildamount of medication.

(54:37):
But most people don't know thatthey have it until they go to
the OR.
And the only reason that we knowthat you have it is if you
fucking start cooking yourselfalive in front of us.
It's fucking crazy.
That's pretty nice.

SPEAKER_01 (54:47):
Would you have to use the silver bullet on them?

SPEAKER_00 (54:52):
A coarse light, the ice luge.

SPEAKER_01 (54:54):
The so yeah, the ice silver bullet.
It's uh for people that areoverheating, it's uh it's it's
just a metal dildo that youshove up their butt.

SPEAKER_05 (55:02):
It's really, really cold and it brings your core
temperature down.
But also, yes, that is standardpractice.

SPEAKER_00 (55:07):
I thought you meant a coors light because they're
cold as the Rockies and they'rein a silver camp.

SPEAKER_05 (55:11):
You can you can use a coors light too, it doesn't
matter.
Nurse, give me 20 cc's of coors,ah, refreshing.

SPEAKER_01 (55:21):
Cracking over his head like he's stone cold, Steve
Austin.
Fuck well, that is horrible.
I mean, let me take us away on amuch lighter note, and then part
two we can go back into otherstuff.
Um Matt, if you want to you canpull it up if you want, but
there's no no really likeimagery to this one.

(55:42):
This is the tree one.
Um this comes from the subredditHigh Strangeness from a user
pixie play.
I am convinced I used to be atree in prehistoric times.
I'm just gonna read it for Batambecause it's gonna take me all
of two minutes here.
Let me start off by saying, Iknow this sounds weird, I do

(56:02):
consider myself to be a normalperson, but a few years ago
something happened that had mequestion my whole existence.
It started out with watching aprehistoric documentary.
It was about ancient life.
A brief summary on the differenteras of the earth.
It was kind of boring until itstarted talking about the
Carboniferous period.
At this point in my life, I hadno knowledge on this period.

(56:23):
I don't remember being taughtabout it in school.
As the documentary went on, Ihad the strangest feeling of
nostalgia.
But I also got the sense thatthe documentary was very wrong.
It was the eerie feeling.
I was watching the fauna andanimals being described, but I
just knew it wasn't exact.
The plants were different colorsand the animals' features were

(56:43):
off.
I could picture how they werereally supposed to be and how
the earth slash atmosphere slashsky were supposed to look at the
time.
I just knew it.
I can't explain it, but I alsogot the feeling of being
extremely homesick.
It made me sad that I couldn'tgo back, but also uh that I had
forgotten.
There were details that thedocumentary was going on about,

(57:06):
and uh, and I would be in myhead thinking, no, that's not
right.
It was actually like this, notthat.
I thought I was going crazy atfirst, and I guess I still feel
that way.
But after that, I began readingand educating myself.
That educating myself, there's alot of lot of work here, um, on
that era, and the more I lookedinto it, the more I could

(57:27):
remember.
It was like the floodgatesopened, and there was a sense of
deep sadness that I hadforgotten all about my life back
then.
It feels like a distant memory,yet I can't ra rationalize why I
feel this way.
I find myself looking atpictures from the era, and it
makes me homesick for a longtime since past.
I'm not sure why I'm postingthis other than to get this off

(57:49):
my chest.
I have yet to share this withanyone in my real life, as I
know this sounds crazy.
That's it.
The first comment is finallysomeone who wasn't Einstein or
Cleopatra, or Einstein orCleopatra in their past life.
But uh my guy just he justthought he was a tree, and
someone's like, I believe you,OP.

SPEAKER_00 (58:10):
You should be really yeah, fuck it, man.

SPEAKER_01 (58:18):
If you will think you're a tree, then guy by
golly, you can be a tree.
And then there's a bunch ofpeople um asking for like um
like questions and comments fromuh OP, but they don't really say
anything back or respond.
There is this one post, and I'llread it this one real quick too.

(58:38):
Look up the Benyan tree from theuh Bagavid Gita.
I don't know if I pronouncedthat right, but not to sound
weird also, but while uh a whileback while I was listening to a
to Tool and contemplating theline from the Tao that says to
know the constant, suddenly Ihad the incredible, intense
vision/slash knowing of being abranch within this massive

(58:58):
infinite golden tree withleafless branches extending
upward forever.
My fear of death was gone for awhile after that, several hours,
maybe a day.
I know you're tapping into thatspecific time period, but also
what we are is life itself, eachbeing a different way life
expresses itself and branchingout.
I believe this connection isalso why you could remember that

(59:19):
time and place, because you arethat tree.
It seems to me any being whichyou can hold in your mind with
true, complete compassion can beknown directly as if you are
them.
But that's a bit far out.
Don't know if that makes senseto you.
It doesn't.
It doesn't, but there you go.

(59:48):
I know I was an oak.

SPEAKER_05 (59:51):
I was a fern, dude.
I was an old ass oak tree.
Some dinosaur pissed on me.
I know it.

SPEAKER_01 (59:58):
Yeah, and that's how I have the fetish.
Today.
Um, Wowie Zawi boys.
Um, what an episode.
Dinosaur P.
What an episode.
And we're gonna do another oneafter this.
Also, Dinosaur P sounds like ashitty IPA.
Um, but yeah, tune in next weekwhen we do more of this.

(01:00:20):

socials.
You can look us up on any socialmedia.
It's we're either Deludi ordon't look on the internet
anywhere.

(01:00:42):

SPEAKER_05 (01:00:44):
I mean, as always, fucking stay.
I'm I'm fucking paranoid thatI'm just one day gonna stop
being able to go to bed.
No more of that.
It can happen to you, so yeah,fucking stay paranoid to that.
