Speaker 1 (00:00):
Fasmaphobia, fear of ghosts, oh or supernatural And by the way,
it's not like you only have it at Halloween time
right where probably just well now it's very amped up.
Speaker 2 (00:14):
It is very very amped up. And so they say

say it. It sounds very like I'm faking it. Well you are, well, yeah,
I don't speak Spanish. Da delos moyertoes.
Speaker 4 (00:41):
That it was so good until you cut to the
last word.
Speaker 1 (00:45):
It's a bigger word. That's the problem. It's a bigger word.
Were toes were toes anyway? Anyway, Obviously that ramps it
up because it's present everywhere. But they said it's a
persistent fear cued by the anticipation or presence of objects
symbolic of ghosts or supernatural phenomena. Now, I can't think
(01:08):
of what would be like a supernatural phenomena. Would it
just be like you think that there's a ghost in the.
Speaker 3 (01:15):
House summoning somebody on Aluigi board.
Speaker 2 (01:18):
Seance seans.
Speaker 4 (01:22):

tiptoes into that world.
Speaker 4 (01:31):
So are these people hear about this time yesterday caller
saying Halloween's too scary, and they say it's.
Speaker 1 (01:39):
Gotten No, it's year round for me, yes, oh yeah no,
And they do say that for people who are FAsMA
FAsMA phobic, that it is. It's worse now, but they
deal with it all year. They deal with it. I
don't know how many times you're seeing ghosts all year,
but I think that's where it kind of ventures into
the supernatural.
Speaker 4 (02:01):
Is you're telling me you don't have to see ghosts.
It's just a thought, yes, correct, correct, well that it's
not a good phobia.
Speaker 2 (02:09):
Yeah, but how many times you have thoughts and ghosts?
Speaker 3 (02:13):
Not much?
Speaker 4 (02:14):
Uh? You you you may, You just don't realize it
because you're not terrified of those thoughts.
Speaker 2 (02:19):
Kristen, Will you do me a favor?
Speaker 1 (02:20):
Will you see if you can find me somebody who's
fat I can't say the word fasmophobic, Please, somebody who
has a fear of ghosts, spirits, apparitions, fear of the supernatural.
Speaker 3 (02:37):
So remember in your old house you had Arthur.
Speaker 1 (02:40):
Yes, that would yeah, no, that would send somebody to
the loony fin.
Speaker 5 (02:45):
But you can't.
Speaker 3 (02:46):
I'm sorry, the looney f Oh I thought you.
Speaker 4 (02:49):
Said Finn, which reminded me of Kristen's favorite shop, feather Firm.
Is that right? Yeah?
Speaker 2 (02:57):
Uh no? But yes, if you thought.
Speaker 3 (02:59):
Your house Papa was going to say, ben.
Speaker 1 (03:05):
No, if you thought your house was haunted and you
were fasmophobic, yeah, yeah, it would send you.
Speaker 2 (03:09):
It would send you to the funny House. You couldn't
live there. No, that's what I need. You'd have to leave.
You couldn't be there.
Speaker 4 (03:17):
Your story's freaked out people who didn't have this phobia.
Speaker 1 (03:21):
You know, And I still I've never gone back to
ask the people who live there now.
Speaker 3 (03:25):
They ever had any weird yea, Yeah.
Speaker 1 (03:27):
Well obviously I knew the people that we sold it
to after he got fired, he sold the house, but
I don't know if any of the new people in
there now have.
Speaker 3 (03:34):
It would be weird if Arthur traveled with you to
your new home.
Speaker 2 (03:39):
Yeah, that would have been horrible.
Speaker 4 (03:41):
Isn't that the one thing you're promised about ghosts.
Speaker 2 (03:43):
That they never leave. They never traveled?
Speaker 4 (03:45):
Yas right?
Speaker 1 (03:47):
But yeah, Christen Tan, you can find me somebody who
who them they themselves are are fearful of ghosts or
the supernatural, or somebody in their family, spouse, whatever, eight
six six to Elliott eight six two three five five
four six eight Great.
Speaker 4 (04:03):
The idea that ghosts don't travel is a misconception.
Speaker 2 (04:06):
Oh, so they do travel.
Speaker 4 (04:08):
I guess some ghosts may have unfinished business or be
attached to a location, but it's certainly not a catch
all for all bodies.
Speaker 1 (04:18):
I'll tell you this. Arthur did not travel. Arthur did
not go from Falls Church to Arlington.
Speaker 4 (04:23):
Did you under that though?
Speaker 2 (04:25):
No, because I was just under the assumption. It stays.
Speaker 3 (04:28):
What if Arthur showed up in a box? Hello, here
I am with the kitchen stuff.
Speaker 2 (04:36):
Yeah, no, it never. Never, never. I was never fearful
of that. And nothing has happened.
Speaker 1 (04:42):
I mean, we've lived in Arlington House forever, so nothing
has happened that made me think, Oh, I guess who
hitched a ride?
Speaker 2 (04:49):
Am I going to line one? Hi Elliot in the morning.
Speaker 6 (04:53):
Hi, good morning earlier, Hi, Happy Halloween, Happy Halloween. As
somebody who suffers from I also struggle saying it fantasma
phobia Halloween is my favorite holiday. I love scary movies
things of that sort. But the difference is I can't
(05:14):
watch scary movies that are like like I don't I
haven't seen The Conjuring. I haven't seen you know, paranormal
activity things like I prefer the people killing people.
Speaker 1 (05:27):
Right, So you could take yeah, you could take like
a slasher flick, but not a supernatural flick one like
if I.
Speaker 6 (05:37):
Don't even wear Oigi board things. My heart's racing right
now just thinking about it. If you pull out a
Wigi board, I will start screaming, like it's not honey
at all.
Speaker 3 (05:49):
Question.
Speaker 1 (05:50):
Yeah, when you said you won't wear a wigi board thing,
I don't What does that mean?
Speaker 6 (05:54):
Like you know, you can have like a necklace or
like earrings or things like that, Like if it has
to do with the Oiji board, I don't want anything
to do with it. I've also never seen that movie.
Speaker 1 (06:05):
Wiki.
Speaker 6 (06:08):
It is I like, like Tyler was saying, I do think.
Speaker 2 (06:14):
About it a lot, do you realize?
Speaker 6 (06:16):
And I do? I do? And it's I hate to
say that. It also comes with like the thought of
like the rapture and the thought of like you know,
biblic biblically accurate angels and all that type of stuff
like that.
Speaker 2 (06:34):
You are, you are deep in the hole. You are
a fortune teller.
Speaker 6 (06:39):
I don't watch medium shows like yeah terrified.
Speaker 1 (06:49):
Wait, So, like I understand, I obviously I know what
a Ouiji board is, but like, will you avoid things
like the Italian melloic and stuff like what is the eye?
Speaker 2 (07:00):
Is the eyes that Greek?
Speaker 3 (07:02):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (07:05):
Yeah, that's right. Yeah, so is the eye is the
eye that's? Is that Greek?
Speaker 4 (07:09):
I believe?
Speaker 2 (07:10):
So will you avoid all things like that as well?
Speaker 6 (07:15):
I mean, I guess I'm not even sure what any
of that is.
Speaker 1 (07:18):
It would be Elliott, where are you on? Like like
friendly ghosts like Casper?
Speaker 6 (07:28):
There's no such thing. I believe that energy cannot be
created nor destroyed. I understand that, so you know, the
body may be gone, decomposed, whatever, We're still creative of
matter and energy. So like the fact that I know
that does not give me any comfort, It actually makes me.
Speaker 2 (07:50):
Can I ask you a question?
Speaker 1 (07:51):
I hope this comes out right because I'm not trying
to offend, but I'm hearing I'm hearing an accent.
Speaker 2 (07:56):
Where are you from? What's your background?
Speaker 6 (07:59):
Every Where I grew up right outside of Philadelphia.
Speaker 2 (08:04):
Okay, I'm not that's not Cherry Hill, New Jersey that
I'm hearing.
Speaker 6 (08:08):
Well, I moved up to New York for a little
bit and I live in I mean.
Speaker 1 (08:15):
Everywhere you know, is your family like like like Hispanic
South American.
Speaker 2 (08:24):
No, no, no, no, no, that's perfect, that's perfect.
Speaker 1 (08:27):
No, because isn't there like it's some some is heritages
the real word cultures, that's a better word. There where
the fear of the supernatural and stuff is a little
bit is is a little bit higher and more elevated.
Speaker 2 (08:42):
And in a lot of Hispanic cultures that is the case.
Speaker 6 (08:46):
Yeah, I would say so because as Puerto Ricans, like
I grew up in a Spanish Pentecostal church. We went
like six days a week. We were very involved and
we don't celebrate vi el. So like it's not something
that like was ever seen in a positive light for me,
right and now, anything that has to do with anything supernatural,
(09:12):
just the fact that I do believe it is so possible. Yeah,
it terrifies me.
Speaker 1 (09:18):
Like for example, Mike, my nephew who lived my sister's
son who lives in New York.
Speaker 2 (09:22):
His girlfriend like very serious girlfriend.
Speaker 1 (09:24):
She's Puerto Rican and like her whole family is like, like,
they don't, they don't play now, no they don't.
Speaker 4 (09:31):
He's white?
Speaker 3 (09:34):
Or are you talking about the supernatural?
Speaker 2 (09:36):
Supernatural?
Speaker 4 (09:36):
Do they think he's a ghost and he is pale?
He is?
Speaker 1 (09:42):
Yeah.
Speaker 6 (09:42):
I didn't even celebrate Halloween growing up. We weren't allowed
to celebrate or like even acknowledge the existence of Halloween.
So of course now obviously it's my favorite holiday.
Speaker 1 (09:53):
How is like how how can you love Halloween but
be so be so scared of like the supernatural and ghosts?
Speaker 6 (10:03):
Because I get to dress up and be super cute
and go get free candy and now I have kids
and then go get candy. Like yeah, it's a ten
out of ten holidays for sure. And like I said,
I love flashes. The bloodier, the more gory, the better.
Like I love things that are scary, but don't ever
try to summon nothing in front of me. I will
(10:23):
call the police.
Speaker 4 (10:23):
Right, how are the gypsies?
Speaker 2 (10:31):
You know what I almost want to do with you?
Speaker 3 (10:34):
She's not gonna do it. The I almost and Tyler
and I were on the Ouiji board.
Speaker 2 (10:38):
Oh yeah, and.
Speaker 1 (10:39):
You guys moved it around, not the no, you know
what I almost want to do with you?
Speaker 2 (10:44):
What was your name again? What was your name again?
Speaker 6 (10:46):
I'm Stephanie.
Speaker 2 (10:48):
Oh, yes, Stephanie.
Speaker 1 (10:49):
I almost want to have you come to the studio
and break out a wigi board in front of you,
just to say.
Speaker 6 (10:54):
Yeah, the cops.
Speaker 2 (11:00):
No, you know what I mean.
Speaker 1 (11:01):
It's almost like remember remember the person who was afraid
of clowns and they took him to see mister Giggles.
Speaker 2 (11:06):
Yeah, and that person flipped out. I almost want to
do that.
Speaker 7 (11:10):
Here we go, rady and honest, Hi, everybody on, how's
everybody today? I'm just gonna sit down right here and
(11:30):
I think we're all.
Speaker 4 (11:34):
I'll start.
Speaker 1 (11:38):
I almost Stephanie, Stephanie, mm hmmm, would you would you
come listen? I'll have I'll have Diane put a sheet
over her like she's a ghost, and we'll break out
a weed gie board and we'll see what happens.
Speaker 6 (11:53):
I'm gonna be honest. When you said that, I immediately
felt like I was gonna throw up. There's no my
heart is inside of my throat.
Speaker 2 (12:06):
Let's try it. Let's try it. What's the worst that happens, Well,
you throw up, or you pass.
Speaker 6 (12:10):
Out, or we actually summon something that follows you forever. Stopslan.
Speaker 4 (12:18):
I was gonna say, did that get brought up moments ago? Now?
Speaker 2 (12:24):
But I will say, I will say, I will say.
Speaker 1 (12:26):
It says the phobia fasmaphobia, as with other types, are
among the most treatable mental health conditions, and they could
be solved in a relatively short amount of time. I'm
telling you all you need is to put your hands
on the Luigi Heart with Tyler Diane Cant. She's dressed
as a ghost, and I think that that would cure you.
Speaker 6 (12:49):
Yeah, hairline, Okay.
Speaker 1 (12:54):
All right, think it over. Hold on, what let me
send you a shirt. Let me send you a shirt.
I need advertising at the looty bin.
Speaker 8 (13:00):
Sure sure, sure, all right, e I TM sheets, all right.
Speaker 2 (13:05):
Hold on, have a great Halloween boom.
Speaker 4 (13:09):
All right, one second, I just get under one of
our flags.
Speaker 2 (13:18):
Wouldn't you would say? Chip?
Speaker 4 (13:20):
The muskers are chipping to the cradle.
Speaker 1 (13:22):
That means, get the hell out of here. Oh I
want Stephanie in here in the worst way, in the
worst way.
Speaker 4 (13:32):
Now I'm reading more about the phobia, and it says
that the fear of being alone, which is autophobia not
to be confused with auto plano planophobia, the one from yesterday,
which is fear of the car wash.
Speaker 2 (13:45):
Oh right right, or auto autoerotic.
Speaker 4 (13:47):
Yes, autophobia may actually play into developing fasmophobia.
Speaker 2 (13:52):
I would buy that, yeah, because I mean, think about it.
Speaker 1 (13:55):
If you are, if you're if you're at home alone,
or you're by yourself, like you're you're not like you
were never you were you were never afraid of anything
when you were having go back to when you were
a kid, if you were having a sleepover and there
were like seven, eight nine of you, you were fine,
you know what I mean, Like there was there was
safety in numbers, there was comfort in numbers. But you're
(14:17):
alone by yourself and the house as a kid for
the first time, you.
Speaker 2 (14:19):
Start getting scared.
Speaker 1 (14:21):
So I get that where it would where one could
kind of fold into the other.
Speaker 4 (14:25):
But it seems like with a caller.
Speaker 2 (14:28):
Stephanie, Yes, she's got it fixed.
Speaker 4 (14:30):
That a lot of it is the idea of the supernatural,
and she mentioned summoning and the beast and the number
of the beasts, that kind of thing. Apparently, just the
idea that you maybe surveiled, that something maybe watching you, Yeah,
(14:51):
like a ghost or.
Speaker 1 (14:52):
Like Rockwell, great, song that is, Yeah, that would flip
you out the ghost connection.
Speaker 4 (14:59):
Sure, so it's not it's not really like the underworld.
Speaker 1 (15:03):
Or oh see, I was thinking of it as like
like all of a sudden you heard something in the house,
or you heard something that went bump. The other thing
I would love to do is like, at about three
o'clock tomorrow morning, show up at Stephanie's house and start
stomping on the roof.
Speaker 4 (15:17):
She said, she doesn't mess with.
Speaker 2 (15:21):
I want. I want to watch her like hyperventilate and
a vomit.
Speaker 5 (15:27):
Rady and honest, Hi, everybody on where am I going?
Speaker 2 (15:39):
Line five? Hi Elliott in the morning?
Speaker 9 (15:42):
Hi Elliet I class.
Speaker 2 (15:43):
Hey who's this? Hey?
Speaker 9 (15:45):
This is the Alan from Fredericksburg. My house has a
little friendly ghost lady. She don't know what she's talking
about when it comes to ghosts.
Speaker 2 (15:53):
Now, why do you think you have a friendly ghost?
Are you being serious? Or you set me up for
a bit.
Speaker 9 (15:58):
No, I'm just going to being serious. See things get
moved around the house. We've actually had money that was
sitting on a stand change. It was the same amount
of money, but it changed. It went from hundreds to
twenties and tens.
Speaker 2 (16:13):
What dude. Yeah, dude, this was dude. That's awesome.
Speaker 4 (16:18):
Diane do that to her mom, didn't you. I hate
to say that, true, I don't want her. I don't
want her to hot meat. You did you steal money
from your mom?
Speaker 1 (16:29):
Well?
Speaker 8 (16:29):
Yeah, because when she would she used to keep it
in this stein in the in the china cabinet because
she would hide when she would win big at Bingos.
She would hide how much money she had right from
my dad, right, And so I could always go in there.
And that was like like her thing, Like she was
like trying to be like a mafia. Don When I'd
be going back to college, she'd be like, oh, come here, Kmarre,
I got you, and she'd pull out this wad of
(16:50):
cash like a drug dealer.
Speaker 2 (16:52):
Right.
Speaker 1 (16:52):
But you would take twenties and put ones in there
just so the wad wouldn't get thin.
Speaker 3 (16:56):
I didn't do that.
Speaker 1 (16:57):
That's the Jewish man's bank roll. Hey, so you have
so so the money has changed.
Speaker 9 (17:05):
Yeah, there was two hundred dollars sitting on a stand
for like a week, and I forgot about it. My
wife's went over and said, hey, is that money still there?
And I said yeah, and she went over and she goes,
I put two one hundred dollars bills over there, and
it was all twenties and tens and there was nobody
in our house. We just me and my wife, nobody.
There was nobody in the house. Neither one of us
(17:26):
did that. So I don't love story on that day.
Speaker 2 (17:29):
I love stories like that.
Speaker 9 (17:32):
We've had a mayonnaise jar come out of a shelf
and there's no way and I I I debunked that
thing that it just fell out of the cupboard.
Speaker 2 (17:41):
And mayonnaise doesn't just fall out of the cupboard.

She works at the Naval Academy and some of those
buildings are from like the eighteen hundred, sure, and she
was like doing an event one time in the basement.
No one was around. She went to the bathroom and
like a little girl entered and she was so freaked
out and the little girl was like, hi, my name's

People who have hold on I pulled this out here
Halloween or I can never say ita dia daila whatever.
Speaker 3 (00:29):
Mortos Yeah, say again the day of the day delas mortos.
Speaker 1 (00:31):
Yeah, but I can't. It doesn't sound right when I
say it. It sounds very like I'm faking it. Well you are, well, yeah,
I don't speak Spanish. Da delos moyertoes.
Speaker 4 (00:41):
That it was so good until you cut to the
last word.
Speaker 1 (00:45):
It's a bigger word. That's the problem. It's a bigger word.
Were toes were toes anyway? Anyway, Obviously that ramps it
up because it's present everywhere. But they said it's a
persistent fear cued by the anticipation or presence of objects
symbolic of ghosts or supernatural phenomena. Now, I can't think
(01:08):
of what would be like a supernatural phenomena. Would it
just be like you think that there's a ghost in the.
Speaker 3 (01:15):
House summoning somebody on Aluigi board.
Speaker 2 (01:18):
Seance seans.
Speaker 4 (01:22):
What wow, just fortune telling?
Speaker 1 (01:24):
Uh yeah, maybe, yeah, maybe. I guess that kind of
tiptoes into that world.
Speaker 4 (01:31):
So are these people hear about this time yesterday caller
saying Halloween's too scary, and they say it's.
Speaker 1 (01:39):
Gotten No, it's year round for me, yes, oh yeah no,
And they do say that for people who are FAsMA
FAsMA phobic, that it is. It's worse now, but they
deal with it all year. They deal with it. I
don't know how many times you're seeing ghosts all year,
but I think that's where it kind of ventures into
the supernatural.
Speaker 4 (02:01):
Is you're telling me you don't have to see ghosts.
It's just a thought, yes, correct, correct, well that it's
not a good phobia.
Speaker 2 (02:09):
Yeah, but how many times you have thoughts and ghosts?
Speaker 3 (02:13):
Not much?
Speaker 4 (02:14):
Uh? You you you may, You just don't realize it
because you're not terrified of those thoughts.
Speaker 2 (02:19):
Kristen, Will you do me a favor?
Speaker 1 (02:20):
Will you see if you can find me somebody who's
fat I can't say the word fasmophobic, Please, somebody who
has a fear of ghosts, spirits, apparitions, fear of the supernatural.
Speaker 3 (02:37):
So remember in your old house you had Arthur.
Speaker 1 (02:40):
Yes, that would yeah, no, that would send somebody to
the loony fin.
Speaker 5 (02:45):
But you can't.
Speaker 3 (02:46):
I'm sorry, the looney f Oh I thought you.
Speaker 4 (02:49):
Said Finn, which reminded me of Kristen's favorite shop, feather Firm.
Is that right? Yeah?
Speaker 2 (02:57):
Uh no? But yes, if you thought.
Speaker 3 (02:59):
Your house Papa was going to say, ben.
Speaker 1 (03:05):
No, if you thought your house was haunted and you
were fasmophobic, yeah, yeah, it would send you.
Speaker 2 (03:09):
It would send you to the funny House. You couldn't
live there. No, that's what I need. You'd have to leave.
You couldn't be there.
Speaker 4 (03:17):
Your story's freaked out people who didn't have this phobia.
Speaker 1 (03:21):
You know, And I still I've never gone back to
ask the people who live there now.
Speaker 3 (03:25):
They ever had any weird yea, Yeah.
Speaker 1 (03:27):
Well obviously I knew the people that we sold it
to after he got fired, he sold the house, but
I don't know if any of the new people in
there now have.
Speaker 3 (03:34):
It would be weird if Arthur traveled with you to
your new home.
Speaker 2 (03:39):
Yeah, that would have been horrible.
Speaker 4 (03:41):
Isn't that the one thing you're promised about ghosts.
Speaker 2 (03:43):
That they never leave. They never traveled?
Speaker 4 (03:45):
Yas right?
Speaker 1 (03:47):
But yeah, Christen Tan, you can find me somebody who
who them they themselves are are fearful of ghosts or
the supernatural, or somebody in their family, spouse, whatever, eight
six six to Elliott eight six two three five five
four six eight Great.
Speaker 4 (04:03):
The idea that ghosts don't travel is a misconception.
Speaker 2 (04:06):
Oh, so they do travel.
Speaker 4 (04:08):
I guess some ghosts may have unfinished business or be
attached to a location, but it's certainly not a catch
all for all bodies.
Speaker 1 (04:18):
I'll tell you this. Arthur did not travel. Arthur did
not go from Falls Church to Arlington.
Speaker 4 (04:23):
Did you under that though?
Speaker 2 (04:25):
No, because I was just under the assumption. It stays.
Speaker 3 (04:28):
What if Arthur showed up in a box? Hello, here
I am with the kitchen stuff.
Speaker 2 (04:36):
Yeah, no, it never. Never, never. I was never fearful
of that. And nothing has happened.
Speaker 1 (04:42):
I mean, we've lived in Arlington House forever, so nothing
has happened that made me think, Oh, I guess who
hitched a ride?
Speaker 2 (04:49):
Am I going to line one? Hi Elliot in the morning.
Speaker 6 (04:53):
Hi, good morning earlier, Hi, Happy Halloween, Happy Halloween. As
somebody who suffers from I also struggle saying it fantasma
phobia Halloween is my favorite holiday. I love scary movies
things of that sort. But the difference is I can't
(05:14):
watch scary movies that are like like I don't I
haven't seen The Conjuring. I haven't seen you know, paranormal
activity things like I prefer the people killing people.
Speaker 1 (05:27):
Right, So you could take yeah, you could take like
a slasher flick, but not a supernatural flick one like
if I.
Speaker 6 (05:37):
Don't even wear Oigi board things. My heart's racing right
now just thinking about it. If you pull out a
Wigi board, I will start screaming, like it's not honey
at all.
Speaker 3 (05:49):
Question.
Speaker 1 (05:50):
Yeah, when you said you won't wear a wigi board thing,
I don't What does that mean?
Speaker 6 (05:54):
Like you know, you can have like a necklace or
like earrings or things like that, Like if it has
to do with the Oiji board, I don't want anything
to do with it. I've also never seen that movie.
Speaker 1 (06:05):
Wiki.
Speaker 6 (06:08):
It is I like, like Tyler was saying, I do think.
Speaker 2 (06:14):
About it a lot, do you realize?
Speaker 6 (06:16):
And I do? I do? And it's I hate to
say that. It also comes with like the thought of
like the rapture and the thought of like you know,
biblic biblically accurate angels and all that type of stuff
like that.
Speaker 2 (06:34):
You are, you are deep in the hole. You are
a fortune teller.
Speaker 6 (06:39):
I don't watch medium shows like yeah terrified.
Speaker 1 (06:49):
Wait, So, like I understand, I obviously I know what
a Ouiji board is, but like, will you avoid things
like the Italian melloic and stuff like what is the eye?
Speaker 2 (07:00):
Is the eyes that Greek?
Speaker 3 (07:02):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (07:05):
Yeah, that's right. Yeah, so is the eye is the
eye that's? Is that Greek?
Speaker 4 (07:09):
I believe?
Speaker 2 (07:10):
So will you avoid all things like that as well?
Speaker 6 (07:15):
I mean, I guess I'm not even sure what any
of that is.
Speaker 1 (07:18):
It would be Elliott, where are you on? Like like
friendly ghosts like Casper?
Speaker 6 (07:28):
There's no such thing. I believe that energy cannot be
created nor destroyed. I understand that, so you know, the
body may be gone, decomposed, whatever, We're still creative of
matter and energy. So like the fact that I know
that does not give me any comfort, It actually makes me.
Speaker 2 (07:50):
Can I ask you a question?
Speaker 1 (07:51):
I hope this comes out right because I'm not trying
to offend, but I'm hearing I'm hearing an accent.
Speaker 2 (07:56):
Where are you from? What's your background?
Speaker 6 (07:59):
Every Where I grew up right outside of Philadelphia.
Speaker 2 (08:04):
Okay, I'm not that's not Cherry Hill, New Jersey that
I'm hearing.
Speaker 6 (08:08):
Well, I moved up to New York for a little
bit and I live in I mean.
Speaker 1 (08:15):
Everywhere you know, is your family like like like Hispanic
South American.
Speaker 2 (08:24):
No, no, no, no, no, that's perfect, that's perfect.
Speaker 1 (08:27):
No, because isn't there like it's some some is heritages
the real word cultures, that's a better word. There where
the fear of the supernatural and stuff is a little
bit is is a little bit higher and more elevated.
Speaker 2 (08:42):
And in a lot of Hispanic cultures that is the case.
Speaker 6 (08:46):
Yeah, I would say so because as Puerto Ricans, like
I grew up in a Spanish Pentecostal church. We went
like six days a week. We were very involved and
we don't celebrate vi el. So like it's not something
that like was ever seen in a positive light for me,
right and now, anything that has to do with anything supernatural,
(09:12):
just the fact that I do believe it is so possible. Yeah,
it terrifies me.
Speaker 1 (09:18):
Like for example, Mike, my nephew who lived my sister's
son who lives in New York.
Speaker 2 (09:22):
His girlfriend like very serious girlfriend.
Speaker 1 (09:24):
She's Puerto Rican and like her whole family is like, like,
they don't, they don't play now, no they don't.
Speaker 4 (09:31):
He's white?
Speaker 3 (09:34):
Or are you talking about the supernatural?
Speaker 2 (09:36):
Supernatural?
Speaker 4 (09:36):
Do they think he's a ghost and he is pale?
He is?
Speaker 1 (09:42):
Yeah.
Speaker 6 (09:42):
I didn't even celebrate Halloween growing up. We weren't allowed
to celebrate or like even acknowledge the existence of Halloween.
So of course now obviously it's my favorite holiday.
Speaker 1 (09:53):
How is like how how can you love Halloween but
be so be so scared of like the supernatural and ghosts?
Speaker 6 (10:03):
Because I get to dress up and be super cute
and go get free candy and now I have kids
and then go get candy. Like yeah, it's a ten
out of ten holidays for sure. And like I said,
I love flashes. The bloodier, the more gory, the better.
Like I love things that are scary, but don't ever
try to summon nothing in front of me. I will
(10:23):
call the police.
Speaker 4 (10:23):
Right, how are the gypsies?
Speaker 2 (10:31):
You know what I almost want to do with you?
Speaker 3 (10:34):
She's not gonna do it. The I almost and Tyler
and I were on the Ouiji board.
Speaker 2 (10:38):
Oh yeah, and.
Speaker 1 (10:39):
You guys moved it around, not the no, you know
what I almost want to do with you?
Speaker 2 (10:44):
What was your name again? What was your name again?
Speaker 6 (10:46):
I'm Stephanie.
Speaker 2 (10:48):
Oh, yes, Stephanie.
Speaker 1 (10:49):
I almost want to have you come to the studio
and break out a wigi board in front of you,
just to say.
Speaker 6 (10:54):
Yeah, the cops.
Speaker 2 (11:00):
No, you know what I mean.
Speaker 1 (11:01):
It's almost like remember remember the person who was afraid
of clowns and they took him to see mister Giggles.
Speaker 2 (11:06):
Yeah, and that person flipped out. I almost want to
do that.
Speaker 7 (11:10):
Here we go, rady and honest, Hi, everybody on, how's
everybody today? I'm just gonna sit down right here and
(11:30):
I think we're all.
Speaker 4 (11:34):
I'll start.
Speaker 1 (11:38):
I almost Stephanie, Stephanie, mm hmmm, would you would you
come listen? I'll have I'll have Diane put a sheet
over her like she's a ghost, and we'll break out
a weed gie board and we'll see what happens.
Speaker 6 (11:53):
I'm gonna be honest. When you said that, I immediately
felt like I was gonna throw up. There's no my
heart is inside of my throat.
Speaker 2 (12:06):
Let's try it. Let's try it. What's the worst that happens, Well,
you throw up, or you pass.
Speaker 6 (12:10):
Out, or we actually summon something that follows you forever. Stopslan.
Speaker 4 (12:18):
I was gonna say, did that get brought up moments ago? Now?
Speaker 2 (12:24):
But I will say, I will say, I will say.
Speaker 1 (12:26):
It says the phobia fasmaphobia, as with other types, are
among the most treatable mental health conditions, and they could
be solved in a relatively short amount of time. I'm
telling you all you need is to put your hands
on the Luigi Heart with Tyler Diane Cant. She's dressed
as a ghost, and I think that that would cure you.
Speaker 6 (12:49):
Yeah, hairline, Okay.
Speaker 1 (12:54):
All right, think it over. Hold on, what let me
send you a shirt. Let me send you a shirt.
I need advertising at the looty bin.
Speaker 8 (13:00):
Sure sure, sure, all right, e I TM sheets, all right.
Speaker 2 (13:05):
Hold on, have a great Halloween boom.
Speaker 4 (13:09):
All right, one second, I just get under one of
our flags.
Speaker 2 (13:18):
Wouldn't you would say? Chip?
Speaker 4 (13:20):
The muskers are chipping to the cradle.
Speaker 1 (13:22):
That means, get the hell out of here. Oh I
want Stephanie in here in the worst way, in the
worst way.
Speaker 4 (13:32):
Now I'm reading more about the phobia, and it says
that the fear of being alone, which is autophobia not
to be confused with auto plano planophobia, the one from yesterday,
which is fear of the car wash.
Speaker 2 (13:45):
Oh right right, or auto autoerotic.
Speaker 4 (13:47):
Yes, autophobia may actually play into developing fasmophobia.
Speaker 2 (13:52):
I would buy that, yeah, because I mean, think about it.
Speaker 1 (13:55):
If you are, if you're if you're at home alone,
or you're by yourself, like you're you're not like you
were never you were you were never afraid of anything
when you were having go back to when you were
a kid, if you were having a sleepover and there
were like seven, eight nine of you, you were fine,
you know what I mean, Like there was there was
safety in numbers, there was comfort in numbers. But you're
(14:17):
alone by yourself and the house as a kid for
the first time, you.
Speaker 2 (14:19):
Start getting scared.
Speaker 1 (14:21):
So I get that where it would where one could
kind of fold into the other.
Speaker 4 (14:25):
But it seems like with a caller.
Speaker 2 (14:28):
Stephanie, Yes, she's got it fixed.
Speaker 4 (14:30):
That a lot of it is the idea of the supernatural,
and she mentioned summoning and the beast and the number
of the beasts, that kind of thing. Apparently, just the
idea that you maybe surveiled, that something maybe watching you, Yeah,
(14:51):
like a ghost or.
Speaker 1 (14:52):
Like Rockwell, great, song that is, Yeah, that would flip
you out the ghost connection.
Speaker 4 (14:59):
Sure, so it's not it's not really like the underworld.
Speaker 1 (15:03):
Or oh see, I was thinking of it as like
like all of a sudden you heard something in the house,
or you heard something that went bump. The other thing
I would love to do is like, at about three
o'clock tomorrow morning, show up at Stephanie's house and start
stomping on the roof.
Speaker 4 (15:17):
She said, she doesn't mess with.
Speaker 2 (15:21):
I want. I want to watch her like hyperventilate and
a vomit.
Speaker 5 (15:27):
Rady and honest, Hi, everybody on where am I going?
Speaker 2 (15:39):
Line five? Hi Elliott in the morning?
Speaker 9 (15:42):
Hi Elliet I class.
Speaker 2 (15:43):
Hey who's this? Hey?
Speaker 9 (15:45):
This is the Alan from Fredericksburg. My house has a
little friendly ghost lady. She don't know what she's talking
about when it comes to ghosts.
Speaker 2 (15:53):
Now, why do you think you have a friendly ghost?
Are you being serious? Or you set me up for
a bit.
Speaker 9 (15:58):
No, I'm just going to being serious. See things get
moved around the house. We've actually had money that was
sitting on a stand change. It was the same amount
of money, but it changed. It went from hundreds to
twenties and tens.
Speaker 2 (16:13):
What dude. Yeah, dude, this was dude. That's awesome.
Speaker 4 (16:18):
Diane do that to her mom, didn't you. I hate
to say that, true, I don't want her. I don't
want her to hot meat. You did you steal money
from your mom?
Speaker 1 (16:29):
Well?
Speaker 8 (16:29):
Yeah, because when she would she used to keep it
in this stein in the in the china cabinet because
she would hide when she would win big at Bingos.
She would hide how much money she had right from
my dad, right, And so I could always go in there.
And that was like like her thing, Like she was
like trying to be like a mafia. Don When I'd
be going back to college, she'd be like, oh, come here, Kmarre,
I got you, and she'd pull out this wad of
(16:50):
cash like a drug dealer.
Speaker 2 (16:52):
Right.
Speaker 1 (16:52):
But you would take twenties and put ones in there
just so the wad wouldn't get thin.
Speaker 3 (16:56):
I didn't do that.
Speaker 1 (16:57):
That's the Jewish man's bank roll. Hey, so you have
so so the money has changed.
Speaker 9 (17:05):
Yeah, there was two hundred dollars sitting on a stand
for like a week, and I forgot about it. My
wife's went over and said, hey, is that money still there?
And I said yeah, and she went over and she goes,
I put two one hundred dollars bills over there, and
it was all twenties and tens and there was nobody
in our house. We just me and my wife, nobody.
There was nobody in the house. Neither one of us
(17:26):
did that. So I don't love story on that day.
Speaker 2 (17:29):
I love stories like that.
Speaker 9 (17:32):
We've had a mayonnaise jar come out of a shelf
and there's no way and I I I debunked that
thing that it just fell out of the cupboard.
Speaker 2 (17:41):
And mayonnaise doesn't just fall out of the cupboard.
Speaker 4 (17:44):
You've told Jackie.
Speaker 2 (17:48):

She works at the Naval Academy and some of those
buildings are from like the eighteen hundred, sure, and she
was like doing an event one time in the basement.
No one was around. She went to the bathroom and
like a little girl entered and she was so freaked
out and the little girl was like, hi, my name's
like whatever. She was paranoid, thought it was a ghost
(18:21):
walked out of the bathroom. There's like a guy standing there.
She thinks he's a ghost too, and he's just like, oh,

space door and a bunch of other random things happening raccoon.

a thermal stuff. You're not gonna see like discolorations unless
there's like a taint and temperature. I found them really

I believe that when you (yes you) feel seen, heard and understood you’re able to deal with relationship struggles, work challenges and life’s ups and downs with more ease and grace. I interview experts, celebrities, thought leaders and athletes so that we can grow our mindset, build better habits and uncover a side of them we’ve never seen before. New episodes every Monday and Friday. Your support means the world to me and I don’t take it for granted — click the follow button and leave a review to help us spread the love with On Purpose. I can’t wait for you to listen to your first or 500th episode!
