relationships and how we do it.
Whether you're learning to loveyourself or someone else,
Radiationships will tickle theright spot.
Join registered professor ShaumDefroyen and his cohost, Radd
Flink as they offer advice andsolace, giving special attention
for callers suffering throughpersonal problems, interpersonal
inconvenience.
If the weight of your apocalypseis too much, let them Apoca-pick
(01:07):
you up.
Radiationships is now on WSPNThe Spoon
Radd Flink (01:25):
Travelers and Trackers, vagrants and vagabonds
settlers and survivors.
To all you Radd heads out there,in Radiation Nation, this is an
emergency broadcast your heart.
Further instructions incoming.
We are live from our ebscompound.
in undisclosed location deep inthe lines of the Sadlands.
Our hearts are pure our backsstrong, and eyes shielded from
(01:45):
the glare of the BoneWaste.
I'm Radd Flink with me the,professor.
Ladies and Gentlemen, this isyour Radiationship.
Callers.
Good to be with you all again.
Fresh off our.
Five hundredth episode.
Blow out.
It was quite the spectacle.
We blew out all the stops.
(02:06):
Really knocked the wheels offand kept it rolling.
We're rolling right onto the501st.
And Ladies and gentlemen, withthat out of the way, we've got
something very important to talkto you about today.
Cause Ladies and Gentlemen, yourrelationship has never been in
more danger.
These are dark days.
Ladies and gentlemen, we neverseen anything like this in the
studio.
And Ladies and gentlemen, let metell you, you nearly did not get
(02:28):
this broadcast today.
Isn't that right, professor?
Professor Shaum (02:30):
It's still in here somewhere.
I can sense your presence.
Cricket.
I can feel your tiny, tinybreath on the back of my neck.
Go Away.
Radd Flink (02:39):
This Cricket nearly made recording today.
Impossible.
Now we cornered him off.
We managed to chase him down to,I think professor, if you can
back me up on this.
I think he's in the ventilation,near the bathrooms, the eastern
bathrooms.
Professor Shaum (02:55):
Just as as, as a recap for our listeners last
week, I advised one of ourcolors, a a young woman who was
in a obviously toxicrelationship to sever all ties
with her lover, that lover nowunable to access the comforts if
his enabler emotionallydistressed and clearly a cricket
has come to me for that which helacks.
Of course the same lack of basiccommunication skills that lead
(03:17):
to the demise if it's a recentrelationship, prevents him from
expressing himself to me in anhonest and transparent way.
And so he chirps passiveaggressively, endlessly.
Radd Flink (03:29):
And this, this really displays a real issue
with um, with borders, we've setcertain borders emotionally
said, we won't talk aboutourselves on the show our
personal lives don't come intoit because the listeners, the
listeners are what is important.
Now we've also set perimeterswith lasers and trip mines and
all sorts of barbed wire andthat sort of thing.
(03:50):
Now, this cricket is completelyrun rough shod all over those
boundaries that we sat down.
Professor Shaum (03:58):
I think.
I think the inherent flaw isthat an anti-personnel mine will
not be activated by the way of acricket.
Radd Flink (04:04):
Is there even such a thing as an anti crooked mine
because now I've been going,maybe I need to go out and find
them.
Professor Shaum (04:10):
I think, uh, I think we can put that to the
listeners.
I'm sure there's an industriousand ingenious listener out
there, um, that, that he or she,his or herself has encountered a
codependent cricket and haslearned how to deal with that
conclusively and decisively.
So if anyone out there hasinformation as to how to
(04:32):
dispatch a codependent, um justludicrously needy cricket, um,
give us a call.
Radd Flink (04:41):
Okay.
That's definitely one way.
I mean, emotional, I supposeemotional connection to.
Sure.
Yeah, it's metaphorically aswell.
Speaking of king size, queensize and filterless, doesn't it
feel like something's missing?
A short list?
That's right.
Just when you thought it was allover your head, Kidderettes.
You heard of these Professor.
(05:02):
They're amazing.
Love them.
Kidderettes, are the child sizesmoke that's smooth and lasts.
These are rolled and machined bygenuine kid fingers, a 100
percent certified kid fingers.
These are certified with a goldseal of approval for numerous
advisory boards.
They are rolled the machine bygenuine kid fingers to ensure
100 percent size accuracy.
(05:24):
There are perfect for a quickbreak or late night rendezvous
made for kids by kids.
Professor Shaum (05:31):
For a uniquely smooth taste.
Radd Flink (05:32):
...from kids.
Professor Shaum (05:33):
There's no substitute for children's
fingers.
Radd Flink (05:35):
All right, well hopefully that cricket keeps his
distance.
I think we've made our presenceknown our expectations known to
that cricket.
So let's go ahead and then tryto take a caller here.
We'll take it down a notch seeif we can't get things back
under control.
Who do we have on the line?
On the lines there?
(05:54):
We'll be right back with Radd Flink.
And Professor Shaum Defroyen onRadiationships,
Commercial 1 (06:04):

WSPN The Spoon (06:40):
We now return to Radiationship's already in
progress on WSPN the Spoon.
Professor Shaum (06:51):
In its entirety, which is why the word
cuckold sounds so much like theword chuckled.
Radd Flink (06:57):
That's fascinating.
Professor.
Professor Shaum (06:59):
I've always thought so.
Okay.
Let's take another call.
Welcome to radiation ships.
How can we service you?
Lumper (07:05):
Am I on, am I through?
Professor Shaum (07:08):
I can hear you.
Lumper (07:09):
That's fantastic.
No.
Uh, no.
I, I love you guys to show.
I love it..
I haven't, I haven't actuallyheard it for a while.
We can't.
We can't get it down here in thesouthern SadLands.
Radd Flink (07:18):
Well, thank you very much.
Thank you very much.
Caller, we really appreciatethat, you know, this show is
made, it's more to listeners,please do this for the listeners
into, in you and people like youare the reason that we do this
everyday.
Speaker 4 (07:30):
So, uh, you guys are still doing the thing where I
talk about stuff and then, ya,ya tell me how to not do it the
bad way.
Radd Flink (07:38):
This is Radiationships, personal growth,
relationship growth.
We offered advice that you need.
Lumper (07:44):
K.
I, I used to, I used to be outout there in the Sadlands, you
know, busting chops, uh, workingfor the raiders.
Uh, you know, but uh, you know,people start talking and people
start, you know, getting marriedand getting older and doing the
thing.
So I was like, okay, maybethat's for me, right?
So I, I get, I gets me a wife, Isettled down, we get ourselves a
nice bunker, it's, you know, andwe've got a good view of the
(08:06):
Poison Sea from there, uh, wehave three kids and only one of
thems a mutant and uheverything's good and then she
dies.
Radd Flink (08:14):
Okay, well let me just, let me just slow you down
there for a second.
We don't need your life story.
We just need to know what'swrong.
Lumper (08:20):
What am I supposed to do now, right?
Dead Wife, three kids, one room,shitty bunker.
Got cans.
That's it.
Professor Shaum (08:27):
Well, to know where you're going.
Um, I suppose we need to know alittle more of where you've
been.
You said you worked with theraiders, um, what are your
skills?
What are your interests?
What do you..
In which?
Which areas do you excel?
Lumper (08:39):
I was a Lumper.
The argument happens rightbetween like raider groups and
you're yelling at them and thenthey're yelling at you and you
need the guy to come up behindthem and lump em.
That was mostly my, my thing.
I'm really good at hittingsomebody in the back of the head
when they're not looking reallygood at quiet.
Professor Shaum (08:56):
You're very quiet.
You know your very violent.
Tell me, do you have experiencewith crickets?
Radd Flink (09:01):
I can absolutely.
A hundred percent kill acricket.
It's not a problem.
We can't find him.
That's the issue.
Lumper (09:07):
Well, W W, W, how many of crickets you have?
Radd Flink (09:10):
it's just the one.
That's the thing.
Professor Shaum (09:13):
Just the one.
Radd Flink (09:13):
We're talking about, what, miles of highways.
Hallways, excuse me, highways.
Lumper (09:18):
You say miles of hallways?
Radd Flink (09:20):
I mean we got.
We got a bunker, but thiscricket.
Lumper (09:25):
I got a bunker too.
Radd Flink (09:26):
Back me up professor, this cricket, he
hasn't listened to a thing we'vesaid.
Professor Shaum (09:29):
He he doesn't.
If we're in the massage parlor,he's in the massage parlor.
Lumper (09:34):
You have a massage parlor?
Radd Flink (09:34):
We've got a bunker when the hot water went.
That might've been him.
Professor Shaum (09:40):
Yeah.
Yeah.
Lumper (09:41):
You've got hot water?
Professor Shaum (09:41):
Well, no, not anymore.
It's lukewarm.
At best, it's tepid.
You think you have problems trytaking a tepid, shower three
times a day.
Lumper (09:47):
The only hot water we have pushing through these
systems is when somebodiesfreshly peed.
I'm sitting here wondering ifI've wasted my life.
And you, you guys were sittingthere talking about hot water.
Professor Shaum (09:55):
You're clearly familiar with the old adage,
hurt people hurt people.
You're experiencing a verysimilar phenomenon.
Boring people are boring.
Now whereas some of my patientsin the past have exhibited signs
of multiple personalities.
Each display in their owninterests, skills,
individuality.
You seem to possess none ofthese things and you are
experiencing what I callinadequate personality disorder.
Lumper (10:18):
inadequate personality disorder?
.
Professor Shaum (10:20):
Yeah.
Lumper (10:21):
So you're saying I'm in the adequate for my personality,
Professor Shaum (10:27):
Unfortunately.
No, I mean it's possible.
I've only known you a fewminutes.
Um, I am quite sleepy.
Uh, it's possible you have aborderline personality, which of
course means you almost have apersonality, but, but not quite.
I think your problems would bebest served by just being more
interesting.
Radd Flink (10:46):
Have you tried that caller?
Have you tried being moreinteresting?
Professor Shaum (10:48):
And I would, I would posit the question were
people losing consciousnessbecause of your violent
outbursts or people losingconsciousness because of your,
your dearth of interest.?
Radd Flink (10:59):
Wow, that's a really good.
That's a really good pointprofessor.
Maybe he's not quite as good alumper is he purports,
Lumper (11:05):
Listen i was, I was, I was part of the Frontiers Men.
Man.
They are the most bad assraiders out there.
Radd Flink (11:11):
Well, let me remind you, this cricket has had us up
all night, you're going to haveto spice things up a little bit.
Um, professor usually doesn'tget like this, but he's just,
he's just nodding off, left andright.
So let's, let's get back to, uh,your, I guess, problems so we
can go ahead and just knock thisout and get on to the next
caller.
Your problem is your bored.
Lumper (11:32):
Yeah.
Radd Flink (11:33):
Okay.
Lumper (11:34):
What's the purpose in life?
I mean, that's, that's what youguys do, right?
Ya gives purpose and help.
I'm just trying to figure out mypurpose, like all I do is sit
round with these kids.
Like I got three of thesebastards and they just sit here
and what do they want, morefood, more food.
lima bean me.
lima bean me.
I ain't lumping nobody in theback of the head.
I ain't lumping my wife in theback of the head.
(11:55):
I mean Shit.
When we put her out thedisposal.
That was it.
There was no proper funeral.
Nothing pretty.
It's just all fucking boringpizzaz hows this?
Yeah.
Yeah, sure, sure.
Right.
When they, when they get borninto the world, you feel the
meaning of life, the glory ofnew life.
But I mean, shit, I've got thesame thing, just like hitting
somebody in the back of thehead.
Same feeling.
Professor Shaum (12:14):
Okay.
It sounds to me that what youwere in need of is, is some
reframing in your life.
Okay.
Now you say you have a bunker.
What it sounds to me like youhave is a schoolroom.
You said that you were a lumper.
What, it sounds like to me isyou are now a lumping
instructor.
And let me tell you what I meanby that.
(12:34):
You say you have three childrennow in the days before the
Confluence children receivetheir vocation by way of
apprenticeship.
Perhaps you can find renewed joyin life by training your
children, uh, in the mutilitoryarts, like their father.
Lumper (12:49):
I like this.
Okay.
Okay.
Professor Shaum (12:51):
Now, of course, the, the, the ancient
apprenticeship model only allowsfor two children to be trained.
So they will need to be someminor culling of your children.
I'm now perhaps you coulddeprive them of food for several
days and then introduce a pieceof fruit and several knives.
Perhaps you could construct arudimentary thunderdome in your
bunker.
It's not my place to tell youhow best to cull your offspring.
(13:14):
Every child is different.
Lumper (13:17):
So.
So the, the culling process, howdo you make sure that the right
one gets culled?
Radd Flink (13:24):
Well, I think we can help you out there.
Which one have you chosen forthe culling?
Okay.
And can I get a name and ageneral description?
Lumper (13:31):
Yeah.
His name is Carthy, he's gotthree eyes on the right and then
just the one on the left.
Speaker 2 (13:40):
Okay.
And you said you were out by thePoison Sea in the south Sadlands
correct?
Lumper (13:44):
Yeah
Radd Flink (13:44):
Good deal.
You said you were a fan, a longtime fan.
So let's see if we can't bringback an old classic.
Oh, professor.
Did you hear that?!?!(sound ofscreeching guitar)
Professor Shaum (13:55):
I did.
Indeed.
Lumper (13:56):
Oh he's doing the thing!
Speaker 6 (13:57):
Not the cricket! (sound of screeching guitar)
Lumper (13:57):
He's doing the thing!
Speaker 2 (14:01):
(Rock music begins) Hope you brought your shades!
It's about to get real bright inhere! Better get to the shelter!
It's time for another NuclearCallout! Ladies and gentlemen,
who's the spotlight on the day?
Looks like Carthy down by thePoison Sea, this is your chance,
ladies and gentlemen, yourchance win fabulous prizes and
rewards.
All you gotta do.
Find that boy, find that girl,find Carthy and let us know.
(14:26):
Use the dropbox, down by I-65.
There's a statue two hugepillars, legs, big ole head
laying right next to it.
There's a dropbox at the bottom.
You drop off proof there and youwill win a wonderful prize.
Ladies and gentlemen, that'sbeen our Nuclear Call out.
Caller thank you for calling.
Lumper (14:42):
Thanks for helping with the culling!
Radd Flink (14:43):
No problem.
Just drop em out the shootwhenever you're ready.
Lumper (14:46):
Sounds good.
Thank you.
Radd Flink (14:49):
Always nice to be able to help people.
Professor Shaum (14:51):
It's, you know, it's, it's, it's mostly on us,
but it's also to them they haveto be willing.
You have to.
You have to make sacrifices inyour life if you want to move
forward, you know, we all carrya lot of dead weight.
Whether that's emotional orpsionical.
Radd Flink (15:05):
That's very true.
Maybe.
Maybe that's something we shouldbe thinking about with this
cricket.
Ya know?
As I'm thinking about it.
That last caller made a goodpoint the bunker is pretty big.
Do we really need that wing?
Professor Shaum (15:18):
Yes, yeah I do.
Radd Flink (15:22):
Well, we can talk about this off air.
Like I said, we don't likegetting into our personal
problems.
Professor Shaum (15:25):
My lumbar is excessively tender.
That's where the massage parloris.
Radd Flink (15:28):
So I'm guessing we should just go to another
caller.
We, we got anybody else on theline here?
Professor Shaum (15:32):
I'm going to be very cranky without my massage.
Go ahead Caller.
WSPN The Spoon (15:36):

WSPN The Spoon (17:27):
We're back with Radiationships and WSPN the
Spoon.
Speaker 2 (17:36):
Just an everyday case of adult onset razor jowls.
I think we have time for onemore call.
Go ahead, caller.
Welcome to Radiationships.
How can we service you are?
Just.
I just wanted to call it my, myname is Raj, I'm
Speaker 11 (17:49):
a regiment and as a matter of fact, and I just
wanted to call in, uh, inresponse to the last caller that
you had and it seems like he'shaving a pretty tough go at
things and I just wanted to saythat I completely agree what you
guys are saying and I feel likehe's got some control in his
life, gets.
I've definitely found somecontrol in mind and I just
wanted to make sure that foranybody else out there that.
(18:13):
Yeah, I mean, you know, thingshere in the sad lance can get to
you, but it doesn't have to bewhat drives you on an everyday
level.
You, you, you, yourself,everybody that's out there
listening, they can take controlof their lives kind of the way
that I have.
So.
Speaker 2 (18:31):
Absolutely.
And let me tell you a color.
This is like a breath of freshair.
I'm sure you've heard of today'sbeen a little rough for us.
Um, but at the same time, likewe know what's going to get
better.
It's not that bad.
Right?
And so often we have thesecallers calling in, of course
I'm not talking about you hearcolor or you dear listeners,
just the colors, just the colorsthey call it and they bellyache
(18:54):
and we're here to hear yourproblems.
We're here to offer yousolutions.
But when you don't listen, whenyou tell us, I'm not willing to
call that kid when you tell us,you know, I'm not willing to
separate entirely from everyoneI know and move because I'm
unhappy.
If that's the all the adviceyou've been given, well maybe
you should listen to you calledto listen, not, not to tell us
what's wrong.
(19:15):
Right?
You didn't call us to lecture uson, Oh, you're living in a
bunker and you haven't so muchbetter.
You don't understand.
No, we do understand.
We had a device show.
We're.
It's our business to understandthat's what we do.
Sorry, sorry, sorry.
I call her.
I got a little carried awaythere.
Why don't you tell us a littlebit about yourself because it
sounds like it could be a realpositive influence on our color.
Speaker 11 (19:31):
Well, I just wanted to touch base on a little bit
about what you were saying.
I mean, because I completelytotally agree.
After my second amputation, Ithought that my life was done.
I thought it was over and Isaid, you know, hey, this can be
actually the tipping point tosomething good to something
(19:51):
great.
Why I live here in the northside lands.
And I've been kind of anintermediary between different
groups.
Bring them together and helpingsolve people's problems all
through my region here in thenorth.
And so I, I've kind of becomesome water, but if you want to
call it that, I just had thiskind of complete and total
(20:15):
happenstance.
I just, there's been somegreater groups.
People have kind of got to knowme.
Um, I kind of lose touch withpeople are really quickly.
Uh, I mean just, you know,different circumstances.
But I will meet people, I wouldturn into changing people's
lives and then we usually don'ttalk very much after that
(20:36):
because I feel like my work hasbeen done and get her.
I'm saying after I make surethat their dog is dead or after
I make sure that they'recomplete domicile, it's been
destroyed.
I can lead that situationknowing that I've left them in a
better place, so I feel the sameway about my own life.
Speaker 2 (20:56):
Sounds like we're coming from.
I'm from a very similar place ofwanting to help people and just
sometimes you just get so fed upand I right, he, professor of
acme, it's so frustrating.
These people call it in and theywon't take control of your life.
Their lives like this color hassome people's are just, just
terminally ungrateful.
You know, when, when, when youas an enlightened person have
(21:18):
identified the problem willperson or pet that is the source
of their issue and you, you tellthem they need to remove it or,
or you take the initiative.
I'm like, you have rush and youremove it for them.
Sometimes they, the response isjust infantiles, you know, and
it doesn't, it doesn't make youa work any less important.
It doesn't make you any lessenlightened.
(21:39):
It just, it just shows otherpeople to be inadequate.
Yeah.
So Raj, can you give us anexample of just help our
listeners out here?
What sort of thing would you do?
Maybe just just the last job youdid that you're really proud of.
Speaker 11 (21:54):
I'm all about clearing a path that is
unclouded on a straight andnarrow way to the best that you
could possibly be.
You.
I like just what I do.
I mean that's my gift that I cangive to other people.
Actually there was one group ofraiders and they were having
(22:16):
some trouble deciding as to, asto who should lead, who should,
who should follow, how to workthings out.
And I could see that they werehaving a structure problem.
They were having a log jam atthe top.
All right.
So what I did was I made surethey brought their problems and
(22:36):
I just overheard you know, thatI mean that's the kind of guy
that I am.
I really want people to be ableto find their best version of
clarity.
So I came across an argument andI made sure I made sure that one
of my slash harpoons was niceand fresh and I got two in one
stroke.
I got two in one stroke.
That's amazing.
(22:59):
Waiters, raiders, there was nomore confusion because there was
only one left, was only one leftand there was no, no more
confusion, no more doubt.
And when I left that situation,that gentlemen, that gentleman
had no doubt as to who wasrunning his organization because
it was him because it was himand all of the control, all of
(23:19):
the responsibility was in hishands.
He didn't thank me, but I knowhe wanted to.
He didn't know he wanted to andI just made sure I had the
hastily get out so I could goabout helping other people and
just the, the, the shouts ofgratitude as I was leaving the
situation I can tell were veryheartfelt.
(23:43):
And if he's listening right, Iwould just like to say, hey
brother, that's the best I cando for another person and I hope
you pass it on.
Speaker 2 (23:52):
You don't have to apologize.
I said, you're welcome.
You're welcome.
That was the Movado is a by agrove road.
You said you were in northNorthstar.
Sadly, it's greg
Speaker 11 (24:01):
the slightly over the distorted gorge.
Sure.
The best way I tell people tofind it.
If you can look for and beelongated craters with a
deformed slugs that's around inthat area.
Speaker 2 (24:15):
I know exactly what you're talking about.
I have to.
I have to commend you on your,your excellent mastery of
advanced psychological problemsolving as a, as a fellow
enlightened person, as a fellowpro, a solver of problems.
Um, I, I often find it difficultto just find the energy to find
that drive, that motivation topush forward.
Where do you find your, yourdrive, what fields you,
Speaker 11 (24:40):
the radiation and so on that I said, I don't need
this need, this space that's socramped and is so riddled older
and punches.
And so what I did was I justmade sure I did without it.
I put my incinerator on high andjust let it go and run a mile
(25:04):
away.
And so now I let nature andthat's right.
I sent nature.
I let nature speak to me in whatI'm saying.
I let them tell me what I shouldbe doing.
I let the buzzard bears tell mewhat I should be doing.
That is exactly what I need, soI'm in tune with nature and it
(25:26):
gives me my motivation.
If a buzzard bear is picking atmy open scabs on my torso, that
lets me know, hey, it soundedgood.
Change somebody's life.
It's time to go changesomebody's life and that's what
I do.
Speaker 2 (25:43):
Somebody left on.
Let me, let me say somethingthere because I feel like we're.
We're at a real kindred spiritand really making a connection
here.
I'd be like, you're, you're likegrown.
You're only like a boots on theground doing the real tough work
sitting up here like armchairgenerals, but you use or are
doing the real pods work.
I am a soldier.
(26:03):
Absolutely.
Let me tell you something realquick because you were
mentioning about just sort ofwhere you get that, that drive.
Where do you get that fire?
Right, and I, I tried to keeppersonal stuff off the show.
Of course we've talked aboutthat, but I'm just sort of
something, a little ritual thatI do every morning that just
sets me off and it gets me goingand it puts me in the right
place.
(26:24):
Ladies and gentleman, what youwant to do, you didn't go to the
place with the skulls, you knowthe one and for me that happens
to be just down just down thehill, get a good intact human
skull.
Now I set that on my bedsidetable.
Every morning I get up and Ihold that skull in my hands like
deep in those empty cavernoussockets, j Dot d, You, I'm alive
(26:49):
and you're not, darn you, Mr.
bricker and that really thatthat just puts me in the right
place and so.
So I give that to you as a giftbecause it's a really, I think
put the professor calls it an f
Speaker 5 (27:05):
formation.
Yeah.
If I've actually.
I've witnessed this, I'vewitnessed read Brad performing
this.
I've walked into his room andI've seen him laying in bed.
I mean he's not holding it tohis face, but he's got.
He's got the skull.
I'm kind of at his, at hismidsection and he's, he's
screaming and he's grunting andthat, that skull in his lap is
shaking.
Um, and, and, and when he'sdone, he's lighter.
(27:27):
He's, he's happier.
He's, he's expelled, whatever itwas that was in him, um, I, I
guess metaphorically into thesocket of that skull and, and,
and, and it's great.
And so I hope our listeners aretaking note of these things.
You know,
Speaker 2 (27:42):
it lights that fire, that fire that jeff had to get
up and go every morning.
Speaker 11 (27:47):
What I'm hearing is that I need a, I need to pour
out because I haven't had anybad episodes that last time.
I slaughtered that family offour, but I've been living on.
But man, sometimes advice goeswrong.
Well, no, I've been living onthat high for.
(28:07):
I mean because I could see thattheir problem really hell is
other people.
I released them from that andI'm not as good of a place as
iron man, but you get what I'msaying.
Think outside the box.
This is what I got to do forthose times where it gets slow
and because I crave interaction,you know what I'm saying?
(28:29):
But out here, sometimes in thesad lands, especially with no
Dharma, it can get a littlelonely.
So yeah, I, I, I would love totry something like that.
It's kind of putting thatnegative energy.
What little I might ever comeacross into another bessel.
Exactly.
You got, you got to the heart ofit.
That's exactly what it is.
Same thing.
(28:50):
Apply to capitated corpsesbecause I mean I might need a
larger vessel to put what I needin.
So I mean if I say like if I hada capitated corpse and I'm like
yelling into the neck, I mean inall of the body is taken.
How does that work?
Speaker 2 (29:07):
Well, I can speak from experience there, but I
imagine it's pretty much thesame.
It's not about what the vesselis, it's about what the Bezel
is.
Do you.
Speaker 5 (29:16):
Right.
It's also important to rememberthat sometimes I read device on
this show is, is a one a day youneed to change everything that
you do.
Um, but for you rush, I wouldsay this is just an augmentation
for you, for you to progress tothe next level in your life, get
a vessel, a project, projectyou, your, your inner most parts
(29:38):
into the vessel, but at the sametime keep doing what you're
doing, you know, to
Speaker 2 (29:42):
talk to the animals, walk with the animals, do what
the animals do and burn things.
Speaker 11 (29:48):
Anytime I can help anybody at anytime I can get
help.
It's a beautiful day outside outhere.
Now in it.
And I wish, I wish you guys inyour subterranean bunker could
see what I see.
I'm coming up on a place, apretty movies used to be a big
(30:13):
film fan.
This is a, a desertedblockbuster.
Oh God, it's gonna.
I'm gonna.
Take some time.
You need to take some time hereand suster what's here?
But uh, um, I'll definitelycall.
And again, thank you so much
Speaker 2 (30:28):
and do me a favor as a, in the next part of your
journey is your, you'reexploring the aisles of that
place.
Keep an eye open for a filmcalled contour.
Man.
I'm early eighties Disneyproduction.
Michael Crawford at his best andif you find that, uh, give us a
call back and we'll, we'll maybediscuss a meeting.
Don't tell you what color callback.
Anyway, I think we can talkabout this off air, but I, I'd
(30:50):
like to see that as well.
Speaker 11 (30:52):
We'll do keep walking through the light guys.
Speaker 2 (30:55):
You stay strong.
I'm so glad.
I'm so glad he called today forthe, for the affirmation, for
the opportunity to help themalong in this quest and for
just, just a chance to maybe seecone doorman again.
Absolutely.
Absolutely.
It gives you a hope and that'sreally what.
(31:15):
That's really what theinformation is all about.
That's really what this is allabout.
It says the hope that we canhelp people.
It's the hope that evoked thatcrooked doesn't have a very long
lifespan or we'll give himselfaway shortly after we're all
fair.
I'm wondering if, if the selfmaintenance routines would help
(31:36):
clear that out.
We should, we should get.
And do you have a.
do you have a spirit school?
Oh, um, now we can go get one.
I talked about.
Let's, let's, let's, let's dothat.
Well, ladies and gentlemen, Ithought at the time we have

Whether you're learning to loveyourself or someone else,
Radiationships will tickle theright spot.
Join registered professor ShaumDefroyen and his cohost, Radd
Flink as they offer advice andsolace, giving special attention
for callers suffering throughpersonal problems, interpersonal
inconvenience.
If the weight of your apocalypseis too much, let them Apoca-pick
(01:07):
you up.
Radiationships is now on WSPNThe Spoon
Radd Flink (01:25):
Travelers and Trackers, vagrants and vagabonds
settlers and survivors.
To all you Radd heads out there,in Radiation Nation, this is an
emergency broadcast your heart.
Further instructions incoming.
We are live from our ebscompound.
in undisclosed location deep inthe lines of the Sadlands.
Our hearts are pure our backsstrong, and eyes shielded from
(01:45):
the glare of the BoneWaste.
I'm Radd Flink with me the,professor.
Ladies and Gentlemen, this isyour Radiationship.
Callers.
Good to be with you all again.
Fresh off our.
Five hundredth episode.
Blow out.
It was quite the spectacle.
We blew out all the stops.
(02:06):
Really knocked the wheels offand kept it rolling.
We're rolling right onto the501st.
And Ladies and gentlemen, withthat out of the way, we've got
something very important to talkto you about today.
Cause Ladies and Gentlemen, yourrelationship has never been in
more danger.
These are dark days.
Ladies and gentlemen, we neverseen anything like this in the
studio.
And Ladies and gentlemen, let metell you, you nearly did not get
(02:28):
this broadcast today.
Isn't that right, professor?
Professor Shaum (02:30):
It's still in here somewhere.
I can sense your presence.
Cricket.
I can feel your tiny, tinybreath on the back of my neck.
Go Away.
Radd Flink (02:39):
This Cricket nearly made recording today.
Impossible.
Now we cornered him off.
We managed to chase him down to,I think professor, if you can
back me up on this.
I think he's in the ventilation,near the bathrooms, the eastern
bathrooms.
Professor Shaum (02:55):
Just as as, as a recap for our listeners last
week, I advised one of ourcolors, a a young woman who was
in a obviously toxicrelationship to sever all ties
with her lover, that lover nowunable to access the comforts if
his enabler emotionallydistressed and clearly a cricket
has come to me for that which helacks.
Of course the same lack of basiccommunication skills that lead
(03:17):
to the demise if it's a recentrelationship, prevents him from
expressing himself to me in anhonest and transparent way.
And so he chirps passiveaggressively, endlessly.
Radd Flink (03:29):
And this, this really displays a real issue
with um, with borders, we've setcertain borders emotionally
said, we won't talk aboutourselves on the show our
personal lives don't come intoit because the listeners, the
listeners are what is important.
Now we've also set perimeterswith lasers and trip mines and
all sorts of barbed wire andthat sort of thing.
(03:50):
Now, this cricket is completelyrun rough shod all over those
boundaries that we sat down.
Professor Shaum (03:58):
I think.
I think the inherent flaw isthat an anti-personnel mine will
not be activated by the way of acricket.
Radd Flink (04:04):
Is there even such a thing as an anti crooked mine
because now I've been going,maybe I need to go out and find
them.
Professor Shaum (04:10):
I think, uh, I think we can put that to the
listeners.
I'm sure there's an industriousand ingenious listener out
there, um, that, that he or she,his or herself has encountered a
codependent cricket and haslearned how to deal with that
conclusively and decisively.
So if anyone out there hasinformation as to how to
(04:32):
dispatch a codependent, um justludicrously needy cricket, um,
give us a call.
Radd Flink (04:41):
Okay.
That's definitely one way.
I mean, emotional, I supposeemotional connection to.
Sure.
Yeah, it's metaphorically aswell.
Speaking of king size, queensize and filterless, doesn't it
feel like something's missing?
A short list?
That's right.
Just when you thought it was allover your head, Kidderettes.
You heard of these Professor.
(05:02):
They're amazing.
Love them.
Kidderettes, are the child sizesmoke that's smooth and lasts.
These are rolled and machined bygenuine kid fingers, a 100
percent certified kid fingers.
These are certified with a goldseal of approval for numerous
advisory boards.
They are rolled the machine bygenuine kid fingers to ensure
100 percent size accuracy.
(05:24):
There are perfect for a quickbreak or late night rendezvous
made for kids by kids.
Professor Shaum (05:31):
For a uniquely smooth taste.
Radd Flink (05:32):
...from kids.
Professor Shaum (05:33):
There's no substitute for children's
fingers.
Radd Flink (05:35):
All right, well hopefully that cricket keeps his
distance.
I think we've made our presenceknown our expectations known to
that cricket.
So let's go ahead and then tryto take a caller here.
We'll take it down a notch seeif we can't get things back
under control.
Who do we have on the line?
On the lines there?
(05:54):
We'll be right back with Radd Flink.
And Professor Shaum Defroyen onRadiationships,
Commercial 1 (06:04):
Hey you! Yeah you! Do you ever wonder if life is
going anywhere?
Are you just pillaging from townto town, just sloppily taking
what you want, but you don'teven know what you want.

Harder, better, faster, deadlier
WSPN The Spoon (06:40):
We now return to Radiationship's already in
progress on WSPN the Spoon.
Professor Shaum (06:51):
In its entirety, which is why the word
cuckold sounds so much like theword chuckled.
Radd Flink (06:57):
That's fascinating.
Professor.
Professor Shaum (06:59):
I've always thought so.
Okay.
Let's take another call.
Welcome to radiation ships.
How can we service you?
Lumper (07:05):
Am I on, am I through?
Professor Shaum (07:08):
I can hear you.
Lumper (07:09):
That's fantastic.
No.
Uh, no.
I, I love you guys to show.
I love it..
I haven't, I haven't actuallyheard it for a while.
We can't.
We can't get it down here in thesouthern SadLands.
Radd Flink (07:18):
Well, thank you very much.
Thank you very much.
Caller, we really appreciatethat, you know, this show is
made, it's more to listeners,please do this for the listeners
into, in you and people like youare the reason that we do this
everyday.
Speaker 4 (07:30):
So, uh, you guys are still doing the thing where I
talk about stuff and then, ya,ya tell me how to not do it the
bad way.
Radd Flink (07:38):
This is Radiationships, personal growth,
relationship growth.
We offered advice that you need.
Lumper (07:44):
K.
I, I used to, I used to be outout there in the Sadlands, you
know, busting chops, uh, workingfor the raiders.
Uh, you know, but uh, you know,people start talking and people
start, you know, getting marriedand getting older and doing the
thing.
So I was like, okay, maybethat's for me, right?
So I, I get, I gets me a wife, Isettled down, we get ourselves a
nice bunker, it's, you know, andwe've got a good view of the
(08:06):
Poison Sea from there, uh, wehave three kids and only one of
thems a mutant and uheverything's good and then she
dies.
Radd Flink (08:14):
Okay, well let me just, let me just slow you down
there for a second.
We don't need your life story.
We just need to know what'swrong.
Lumper (08:20):
What am I supposed to do now, right?
Dead Wife, three kids, one room,shitty bunker.
Got cans.
That's it.
Professor Shaum (08:27):
Well, to know where you're going.
Um, I suppose we need to know alittle more of where you've
been.
You said you worked with theraiders, um, what are your
skills?
What are your interests?
What do you..
In which?
Which areas do you excel?
Lumper (08:39):
I was a Lumper.
The argument happens rightbetween like raider groups and
you're yelling at them and thenthey're yelling at you and you
need the guy to come up behindthem and lump em.
That was mostly my, my thing.
I'm really good at hittingsomebody in the back of the head
when they're not looking reallygood at quiet.
Professor Shaum (08:56):
You're very quiet.
You know your very violent.
Tell me, do you have experiencewith crickets?
Radd Flink (09:01):
I can absolutely.
A hundred percent kill acricket.
It's not a problem.
We can't find him.
That's the issue.
Lumper (09:07):
Well, W W, W, how many of crickets you have?
Radd Flink (09:10):
it's just the one.
That's the thing.
Professor Shaum (09:13):
Just the one.
Radd Flink (09:13):
We're talking about, what, miles of highways.
Hallways, excuse me, highways.
Lumper (09:18):
You say miles of hallways?
Radd Flink (09:20):
I mean we got.
We got a bunker, but thiscricket.
Lumper (09:25):
I got a bunker too.
Radd Flink (09:26):
Back me up professor, this cricket, he
hasn't listened to a thing we'vesaid.
Professor Shaum (09:29):
He he doesn't.
If we're in the massage parlor,he's in the massage parlor.
Lumper (09:34):
You have a massage parlor?
Radd Flink (09:34):
We've got a bunker when the hot water went.
That might've been him.
Professor Shaum (09:40):
Yeah.
Yeah.
Lumper (09:41):
You've got hot water?
Professor Shaum (09:41):
Well, no, not anymore.
It's lukewarm.
At best, it's tepid.
You think you have problems trytaking a tepid, shower three
times a day.
Lumper (09:47):
The only hot water we have pushing through these
systems is when somebodiesfreshly peed.
I'm sitting here wondering ifI've wasted my life.
And you, you guys were sittingthere talking about hot water.
Professor Shaum (09:55):
You're clearly familiar with the old adage,
hurt people hurt people.
You're experiencing a verysimilar phenomenon.
Boring people are boring.
Now whereas some of my patientsin the past have exhibited signs
of multiple personalities.
Each display in their owninterests, skills,
individuality.
You seem to possess none ofthese things and you are
experiencing what I callinadequate personality disorder.
Lumper (10:18):
inadequate personality disorder?
.
Professor Shaum (10:20):
Yeah.
Lumper (10:21):
So you're saying I'm in the adequate for my personality,
Professor Shaum (10:27):
Unfortunately.
No, I mean it's possible.
I've only known you a fewminutes.
Um, I am quite sleepy.
Uh, it's possible you have aborderline personality, which of
course means you almost have apersonality, but, but not quite.
I think your problems would bebest served by just being more
interesting.
Radd Flink (10:46):
Have you tried that caller?
Have you tried being moreinteresting?
Professor Shaum (10:48):
And I would, I would posit the question were
people losing consciousnessbecause of your violent
outbursts or people losingconsciousness because of your,
your dearth of interest.?
Radd Flink (10:59):
Wow, that's a really good.
That's a really good pointprofessor.
Maybe he's not quite as good alumper is he purports,
Lumper (11:05):
Listen i was, I was, I was part of the Frontiers Men.
Man.
They are the most bad assraiders out there.
Radd Flink (11:11):
Well, let me remind you, this cricket has had us up
all night, you're going to haveto spice things up a little bit.
Um, professor usually doesn'tget like this, but he's just,
he's just nodding off, left andright.
So let's, let's get back to, uh,your, I guess, problems so we
can go ahead and just knock thisout and get on to the next
caller.
Your problem is your bored.
Lumper (11:32):
Yeah.
Radd Flink (11:33):
Okay.
Lumper (11:34):
What's the purpose in life?
I mean, that's, that's what youguys do, right?
Ya gives purpose and help.
I'm just trying to figure out mypurpose, like all I do is sit
round with these kids.
Like I got three of thesebastards and they just sit here
and what do they want, morefood, more food.
lima bean me.
lima bean me.
I ain't lumping nobody in theback of the head.
I ain't lumping my wife in theback of the head.
(11:55):
I mean Shit.
When we put her out thedisposal.
That was it.
There was no proper funeral.
Nothing pretty.
It's just all fucking boringpizzaz hows this?
Yeah.
Yeah, sure, sure.
Right.
When they, when they get borninto the world, you feel the
meaning of life, the glory ofnew life.
But I mean, shit, I've got thesame thing, just like hitting
somebody in the back of thehead.
Same feeling.
Professor Shaum (12:14):
Okay.
It sounds to me that what youwere in need of is, is some
reframing in your life.
Okay.
Now you say you have a bunker.
What it sounds to me like youhave is a schoolroom.
You said that you were a lumper.
What, it sounds like to me isyou are now a lumping
instructor.
And let me tell you what I meanby that.
(12:34):
You say you have three childrennow in the days before the
Confluence children receivetheir vocation by way of
apprenticeship.
Perhaps you can find renewed joyin life by training your
children, uh, in the mutilitoryarts, like their father.
Lumper (12:49):
I like this.
Okay.
Okay.
Professor Shaum (12:51):
Now, of course, the, the, the ancient
apprenticeship model only allowsfor two children to be trained.
So they will need to be someminor culling of your children.
I'm now perhaps you coulddeprive them of food for several
days and then introduce a pieceof fruit and several knives.
Perhaps you could construct arudimentary thunderdome in your
bunker.
It's not my place to tell youhow best to cull your offspring.
(13:14):
Every child is different.
Lumper (13:17):
So.
So the, the culling process, howdo you make sure that the right
one gets culled?
Radd Flink (13:24):
Well, I think we can help you out there.
Which one have you chosen forthe culling?
Okay.
And can I get a name and ageneral description?
Lumper (13:31):
Yeah.
His name is Carthy, he's gotthree eyes on the right and then
just the one on the left.
Speaker 2 (13:40):
Okay.
And you said you were out by thePoison Sea in the south Sadlands
correct?
Lumper (13:44):
Yeah
Radd Flink (13:44):
Good deal.
You said you were a fan, a longtime fan.
So let's see if we can't bringback an old classic.
Oh, professor.
Did you hear that?!?!(sound ofscreeching guitar)
Professor Shaum (13:55):
I did.
Indeed.
Lumper (13:56):
Oh he's doing the thing!
Speaker 6 (13:57):
Not the cricket! (sound of screeching guitar)
Lumper (13:57):
He's doing the thing!
Speaker 2 (14:01):
(Rock music begins) Hope you brought your shades!
It's about to get real bright inhere! Better get to the shelter!
It's time for another NuclearCallout! Ladies and gentlemen,
who's the spotlight on the day?
Looks like Carthy down by thePoison Sea, this is your chance,
ladies and gentlemen, yourchance win fabulous prizes and
rewards.
All you gotta do.

You have to.
You have to make sacrifices inyour life if you want to move
forward, you know, we all carrya lot of dead weight.
Whether that's emotional orpsionical.
Radd Flink (15:05):
That's very true.

cricket.

As I'm thinking about it.
That last caller made a goodpoint the bunker is pretty big.

Professor Shaum (15:18):
Yes, yeah I do.
Radd Flink (15:22):
Well, we can talk about this off air.

problems.
Professor Shaum (15:25):
My lumbar is excessively tender.
That's where the massage parloris.
Radd Flink (15:28):
So I'm guessing we should just go to another
caller.
We, we got anybody else on theline here?
Professor Shaum (15:32):

WSPN The Spoon (17:27):
We're back with Radiationships and WSPN the
Spoon.
Speaker 2 (17:36):
Just an everyday case of adult onset razor jowls.
I think we have time for onemore call.
Go ahead, caller.
Welcome to Radiationships.
How can we service you are?
Just.
I just wanted to call it my, myname is Raj, I'm
Speaker 11 (17:49):
a regiment and as a matter of fact, and I just
wanted to call in, uh, inresponse to the last caller that
you had and it seems like he'shaving a pretty tough go at
things and I just wanted to saythat I completely agree what you
guys are saying and I feel likehe's got some control in his
life, gets.
I've definitely found somecontrol in mind and I just
wanted to make sure that foranybody else out there that.
(18:13):
Yeah, I mean, you know, thingshere in the sad lance can get to
you, but it doesn't have to bewhat drives you on an everyday
level.
You, you, you, yourself,everybody that's out there
listening, they can take controlof their lives kind of the way
that I have.
So.
Speaker 2 (18:31):
Absolutely.
And let me tell you a color.
This is like a breath of freshair.
I'm sure you've heard of today'sbeen a little rough for us.
Um, but at the same time, likewe know what's going to get
better.
It's not that bad.
Right?
And so often we have thesecallers calling in, of course
I'm not talking about you hearcolor or you dear listeners,
just the colors, just the colorsthey call it and they bellyache
(18:54):
and we're here to hear yourproblems.
We're here to offer yousolutions.
But when you don't listen, whenyou tell us, I'm not willing to
call that kid when you tell us,you know, I'm not willing to
separate entirely from everyoneI know and move because I'm
unhappy.
If that's the all the adviceyou've been given, well maybe
you should listen to you calledto listen, not, not to tell us
what's wrong.
(19:15):
Right?
You didn't call us to lecture uson, Oh, you're living in a
bunker and you haven't so muchbetter.
You don't understand.
No, we do understand.
We had a device show.
We're.
It's our business to understandthat's what we do.
Sorry, sorry, sorry.
I call her.
I got a little carried awaythere.
Why don't you tell us a littlebit about yourself because it
sounds like it could be a realpositive influence on our color.
Speaker 11 (19:31):
Well, I just wanted to touch base on a little bit
about what you were saying.
I mean, because I completelytotally agree.
After my second amputation, Ithought that my life was done.
I thought it was over and Isaid, you know, hey, this can be
actually the tipping point tosomething good to something
(19:51):
great.
Why I live here in the northside lands.
And I've been kind of anintermediary between different
groups.
Bring them together and helpingsolve people's problems all
through my region here in thenorth.
And so I, I've kind of becomesome water, but if you want to
call it that, I just had thiskind of complete and total
(20:15):
happenstance.
I just, there's been somegreater groups.
People have kind of got to knowme.
Um, I kind of lose touch withpeople are really quickly.
Uh, I mean just, you know,different circumstances.
But I will meet people, I wouldturn into changing people's
lives and then we usually don'ttalk very much after that
(20:36):
because I feel like my work hasbeen done and get her.
I'm saying after I make surethat their dog is dead or after
I make sure that they'recomplete domicile, it's been
destroyed.
I can lead that situationknowing that I've left them in a
better place, so I feel the sameway about my own life.
Speaker 2 (20:56):
Sounds like we're coming from.
I'm from a very similar place ofwanting to help people and just
sometimes you just get so fed upand I right, he, professor of
acme, it's so frustrating.
These people call it in and theywon't take control of your life.
Their lives like this color hassome people's are just, just
terminally ungrateful.
You know, when, when, when youas an enlightened person have
(21:18):
identified the problem willperson or pet that is the source
of their issue and you, you tellthem they need to remove it or,
or you take the initiative.
I'm like, you have rush and youremove it for them.
Sometimes they, the response isjust infantiles, you know, and
it doesn't, it doesn't make youa work any less important.
It doesn't make you any lessenlightened.
(21:39):
It just, it just shows otherpeople to be inadequate.
Yeah.
So Raj, can you give us anexample of just help our
listeners out here?
What sort of thing would you do?
Maybe just just the last job youdid that you're really proud of.
Speaker 11 (21:54):
I'm all about clearing a path that is
unclouded on a straight andnarrow way to the best that you
could possibly be.
You.
I like just what I do.
I mean that's my gift that I cangive to other people.
Actually there was one group ofraiders and they were having
(22:16):
some trouble deciding as to, asto who should lead, who should,
who should follow, how to workthings out.
And I could see that they werehaving a structure problem.
They were having a log jam atthe top.
All right.
So what I did was I made surethey brought their problems and
(22:36):
I just overheard you know, thatI mean that's the kind of guy
that I am.
I really want people to be ableto find their best version of
clarity.
So I came across an argument andI made sure I made sure that one
of my slash harpoons was niceand fresh and I got two in one
stroke.
I got two in one stroke.
That's amazing.
(22:59):
Waiters, raiders, there was nomore confusion because there was
only one left, was only one leftand there was no, no more
confusion, no more doubt.
And when I left that situation,that gentlemen, that gentleman
had no doubt as to who wasrunning his organization because
it was him because it was himand all of the control, all of
(23:19):
the responsibility was in hishands.
He didn't thank me, but I knowhe wanted to.
He didn't know he wanted to andI just made sure I had the
hastily get out so I could goabout helping other people and
just the, the, the shouts ofgratitude as I was leaving the
situation I can tell were veryheartfelt.
(23:43):
And if he's listening right, Iwould just like to say, hey
brother, that's the best I cando for another person and I hope
you pass it on.
Speaker 2 (23:52):
You don't have to apologize.
I said, you're welcome.
You're welcome.
That was the Movado is a by agrove road.
You said you were in northNorthstar.
Sadly, it's greg
Speaker 11 (24:01):
the slightly over the distorted gorge.
Sure.
The best way I tell people tofind it.
If you can look for and beelongated craters with a
deformed slugs that's around inthat area.
Speaker 2 (24:15):
I know exactly what you're talking about.
I have to.
I have to commend you on your,your excellent mastery of
advanced psychological problemsolving as a, as a fellow
enlightened person, as a fellowpro, a solver of problems.
Um, I, I often find it difficultto just find the energy to find
that drive, that motivation topush forward.
Where do you find your, yourdrive, what fields you,
Speaker 11 (24:40):
the radiation and so on that I said, I don't need
this need, this space that's socramped and is so riddled older
and punches.
And so what I did was I justmade sure I did without it.
I put my incinerator on high andjust let it go and run a mile
(25:04):
away.
And so now I let nature andthat's right.
I sent nature.
I let nature speak to me in whatI'm saying.
I let them tell me what I shouldbe doing.
I let the buzzard bears tell mewhat I should be doing.
That is exactly what I need, soI'm in tune with nature and it
(25:26):
gives me my motivation.
If a buzzard bear is picking atmy open scabs on my torso, that
lets me know, hey, it soundedgood.
Change somebody's life.
It's time to go changesomebody's life and that's what
I do.
Speaker 2 (25:43):
Somebody left on.
Let me, let me say somethingthere because I feel like we're.
We're at a real kindred spiritand really making a connection
here.
I'd be like, you're, you're likegrown.
You're only like a boots on theground doing the real tough work
sitting up here like armchairgenerals, but you use or are
doing the real pods work.
I am a soldier.
(26:03):
Absolutely.
Let me tell you something realquick because you were
mentioning about just sort ofwhere you get that, that drive.
Where do you get that fire?
Right, and I, I tried to keeppersonal stuff off the show.
Of course we've talked aboutthat, but I'm just sort of
something, a little ritual thatI do every morning that just
sets me off and it gets me goingand it puts me in the right
place.
(26:24):
Ladies and gentleman, what youwant to do, you didn't go to the
place with the skulls, you knowthe one and for me that happens
to be just down just down thehill, get a good intact human
skull.
Now I set that on my bedsidetable.
Every morning I get up and Ihold that skull in my hands like
deep in those empty cavernoussockets, j Dot d, You, I'm alive
(26:49):
and you're not, darn you, Mr.
bricker and that really thatthat just puts me in the right
place and so.
So I give that to you as a giftbecause it's a really, I think
put the professor calls it an f
Speaker 5 (27:05):
formation.
Yeah.
If I've actually.
I've witnessed this, I'vewitnessed read Brad performing
this.
I've walked into his room andI've seen him laying in bed.
I mean he's not holding it tohis face, but he's got.
He's got the skull.
I'm kind of at his, at hismidsection and he's, he's
screaming and he's grunting andthat, that skull in his lap is
shaking.
Um, and, and, and when he'sdone, he's lighter.
(27:27):
He's, he's happier.
He's, he's expelled, whatever itwas that was in him, um, I, I
guess metaphorically into thesocket of that skull and, and,
and, and it's great.
And so I hope our listeners aretaking note of these things.
You know,
Speaker 2 (27:42):
it lights that fire, that fire that jeff had to get
up and go every morning.
Speaker 11 (27:47):
What I'm hearing is that I need a, I need to pour
out because I haven't had anybad episodes that last time.
I slaughtered that family offour, but I've been living on.
But man, sometimes advice goeswrong.
Well, no, I've been living onthat high for.
(28:07):
I mean because I could see thattheir problem really hell is
other people.
I released them from that andI'm not as good of a place as
iron man, but you get what I'msaying.
Think outside the box.
This is what I got to do forthose times where it gets slow
and because I crave interaction,you know what I'm saying?
(28:29):
But out here, sometimes in thesad lands, especially with no
Dharma, it can get a littlelonely.
So yeah, I, I, I would love totry something like that.
It's kind of putting thatnegative energy.
What little I might ever comeacross into another bessel.
Exactly.
You got, you got to the heart ofit.
That's exactly what it is.
Same thing.
(28:50):
Apply to capitated corpsesbecause I mean I might need a
larger vessel to put what I needin.
So I mean if I say like if I hada capitated corpse and I'm like
yelling into the neck, I mean inall of the body is taken.
How does that work?
Speaker 2 (29:07):
Well, I can speak from experience there, but I
imagine it's pretty much thesame.
It's not about what the vesselis, it's about what the Bezel
is.
Do you.
Speaker 5 (29:16):
Right.
It's also important to rememberthat sometimes I read device on
this show is, is a one a day youneed to change everything that
you do.
Um, but for you rush, I wouldsay this is just an augmentation
for you, for you to progress tothe next level in your life, get
a vessel, a project, projectyou, your, your inner most parts
(29:38):
into the vessel, but at the sametime keep doing what you're
doing, you know, to
Speaker 2 (29:42):
talk to the animals, walk with the animals, do what
the animals do and burn things.
Speaker 11 (29:48):
Anytime I can help anybody at anytime I can get
help.
It's a beautiful day outside outhere.
Now in it.
And I wish, I wish you guys inyour subterranean bunker could
see what I see.
I'm coming up on a place, apretty movies used to be a big
(30:13):
film fan.
This is a, a desertedblockbuster.
Oh God, it's gonna.
I'm gonna.
Take some time.
You need to take some time hereand suster what's here?
But uh, um, I'll definitelycall.
And again, thank you so much
Speaker 2 (30:28):
and do me a favor as a, in the next part of your
journey is your, you'reexploring the aisles of that
place.
Keep an eye open for a filmcalled contour.
Man.
I'm early eighties Disneyproduction.
Michael Crawford at his best andif you find that, uh, give us a
call back and we'll, we'll maybediscuss a meeting.
Don't tell you what color callback.
Anyway, I think we can talkabout this off air, but I, I'd
(30:50):
like to see that as well.
Speaker 11 (30:52):
We'll do keep walking through the light guys.
Speaker 2 (30:55):
You stay strong.
I'm so glad.
I'm so glad he called today forthe, for the affirmation, for
the opportunity to help themalong in this quest and for
just, just a chance to maybe seecone doorman again.
Absolutely.
Absolutely.
It gives you a hope and that'sreally what.
(31:15):
That's really what theinformation is all about.
That's really what this is allabout.
It says the hope that we canhelp people.
It's the hope that evoked thatcrooked doesn't have a very long
lifespan or we'll give himselfaway shortly after we're all
fair.
I'm wondering if, if the selfmaintenance routines would help
(31:36):
clear that out.
We should, we should get.
And do you have a.
do you have a spirit school?
Oh, um, now we can go get one.
I talked about.
Let's, let's, let's, let's dothat.
Well, ladies and gentlemen, Ithought at the time we have
today we got some business totake care of.
This has been a radiation chips.
I'm red blanket with me asalways.
The professor don't come lookingfor us.
