(01:18):
The Paranoid Perspective. I am Jake, I'm Sarah. Sarah, it'd
be really nice to tell the future, you know.

Speaker 1 (01:26):
Yeah, it would be nice. There's lottery numbers.

Speaker 2 (01:30):
Ah, yeah, dude, Well, I don't know if i'd be
doing lottery numbers because that might be like, if you
do it too much, you might get in some trouble,
you know.

Speaker 1 (01:36):
Sure, but I'll just play the little lotteries.

Speaker 2 (01:39):
Yeah, you know, I make a couple thousand bucks here
in there. You know, nobody's going to pay attention. Yeah,
you know what I mean, But it would be nice.
And you have plenty of people claiming that they can
tell the future and they can read your palm and
they can do all this woo woo crazy shit. Most
of the time, it's a a lot of shenanigans, and
I think that's putting it pretty nicely.

Speaker 1 (01:59):
I just can read people, well, I guess right, because
they ask leading questions.

Speaker 2 (02:04):
Yeah. Yeah. The woman we're talking about today, she's not
really that type. From my understanding. It's more of like,
this is what's gonna happen in the future of the world.

Speaker 1 (02:17):
So yeah, right, big scale.

Speaker 2 (02:20):
Yeah, Well, if you're gonna go, you gotta go hard,
like you got a whole asset, you really do, you
know what I mean. So let's get into, uh, what
we're talking about today. So Sarah, what are we doing.

Speaker 1 (02:32):
Yeah, so we're going to talk about Rio Totski, which
it could also be View Totski I saw, but either way,
it's a pseudonym. So I'm gonna say probably Totsky mostly anyway.
But she's a Japanese woman that I guess dreams a
lot and kept a dream journal eighties. Yeah, but then

(02:55):
her dreams came true, I guess apparently, and she The
biggest thing is she became a manga artist, and she
drew out the manga into like a book and sold
the book and then, you know, people, it wasn't very
successful till one thing that she said in there did
become true. Now everyone's talking about her. So she's called

(03:20):
Japan's Baba Vina, which I guess is the Bulgarian mystic Inhaler. Yeah, no,
she's like Japan's version.

Speaker 2 (03:30):
Okay, Well, I'm sure every culture has had a handful
of these, you know, iconic people that can you know,
read the futures or see the future, claim to do
outstanding things. I mean, thinking about way back in the day.
I mean that's what they're still talking about, you know,
Davinia and stuff like that.

Speaker 1 (03:48):
So oh yeah, Austrodamus. Yep, yeah, what's weird though, Well,
so she kept dreaming girls as she was younger, and
then she said she had no intention of ever making
those public because she was a child or whatever, like
making that like she was just recording them for herself.

Speaker 2 (04:07):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (04:07):
And then yeah, she started as a manga artist in
the nineties, so I guess she said she first did
like stories from a cousin or someone who was a nurse,
so like her stories of what was happening there. But
apparently she ran out of stories, so then she looked
at her dream journals.

Speaker 2 (04:29):
It's easy to do.

Speaker 1 (04:31):
Yeah, I mean as a nurse, I feel like you'd
see a lot. But I guess she got tired of
that or something. So July nineteen ninety nine was the
first publication of like her book like the manga, but
she did publish I guess two of them separately as
kind of like one shot like short stories like before

(04:52):
that came out.

Speaker 2 (04:54):
Oh, it's kind of like a little precursor to what
she was doing.

Speaker 1 (04:57):
Yeah, So I mean it's kind of like an anthology.
I guess she made as the nineteen ninety nine to one,
so a message from a dream was her first one
that was published in nineteen ninety five, and then The
Future I Saw, which is the big one people talk about,
that was first published in nineteen ninety six. It was
like six pages, like.

Speaker 2 (05:18):
Back to back to back releases pretty much.

Speaker 1 (05:21):
Yeah, and like the nineteen ninety nine one. I don't
know if there were more like short stories than those two,
but like I found online pdf of the first two,
so I could actually read what was in it, okay
and see. But there could be other predictions that she
said in there that I just couldn't find, But yeah,

(05:43):
I guess also for the nineteen ninety five and ninety
six publication there I found it like in one spot,
but no one else had verified that that they actually
came before. But I guess she did have serialization in
magazines like my manga magazines. One was called Real Horrible
Stories and the other one was called Horror Experience.

Speaker 2 (06:09):
Catchy titles to say the least, Yeah.

Speaker 1 (06:11):
And those were from nineteen ninety four to nineteen ninety
eight where she did like publish things in there. So
there were some things that definitely came out before nineteen
ninety nine because a lot of the prediction she has
in nineteen ninety nine, which we'll get into like they
had already come true by then. Oh really, it's like, okay,
you're just including things that are already happened, like right. Yeah.

(06:37):
And then later she I guess, because she blew up
a little bit after the one prediction came true. Then
she made a complete edition she called it, so I
had extra stuff, I guess, And that was sold in
October twenty twenty one, so I guess I had a
little bit more information. I couldn't find that to find
like all of this stuff. But apparently she also published
like her actual dream journal, so that would have more

(07:00):
of it as like verification, I guess. But Message from
a Dream really just depicted her predicting Freddie Mercury dying.

Speaker 2 (07:10):
Wow.

Speaker 1 (07:10):
And that's it.

Speaker 2 (07:11):
Wow. I mean the writing on the wall was there
for that.

Speaker 1 (07:16):
I mean yeah, Well, she said she had the dream
on November twenty fourth, nineteen seventy six, and that was
written in her dream journal. That's what she said. And
she also referenced another dream on November twenty eighth, nineteen
eighty six, about him too, so that she had like
two dreams with him. But it really didn't go into

(07:37):
details in this like message from a dream manga.

Speaker 2 (07:40):
I can't imagine what I just said.

Speaker 1 (07:41):
He's gonna die? Yeah, yeah, yeah, it was just she
said she saw her and her friend like saw on
the news on TV that he had died, and her
friend cried because her friend was a big like queen fan,
And that's what it was. So that's the first publication
she had, I guess, yeah, And then there were other

(08:06):
ones that showed like more personal things, like she said
two of the things, like one of them was she
saw a dark tunnel like place that surrounded by water,
and then she just kept seeing a woman's back and
like she couldn't see the woman's face, And that was
her dream. And she said, like later that year, after

(08:27):
she had it, she went to a park nearby her
house that she had never been to before, and she
saw this like wartime shelter that looked exactly like the dream,
like this tunnel thing. And then she said, a few
days after that, she saw on the news that a
woman's body had been found like there in the water,

(08:47):
and she thinks that's what the dream was. But it's like, okay, sure,
I guess, but also I couldn't find this case I
mean it was like in nineteen the nineties, but I
couldn't find it on about a woman being found in
this park.

Speaker 2 (09:03):
Well, I mean also I wouldn't I mean, I wouldn't
rule it out of the realm of possibility, but I
don't know. Yes, that's like, oh, I told That's one
of the things I don't like about it. We have
like these very general, vague things, and then when we
find something very specific, we're like, oh, yep, I told you,
Like that's the vibe that was it? Yeah, yeah, right.

Speaker 1 (09:25):
Yeah, and it's like so personal, that's like okay, sure.
But she included that in like the part of the
message from a dream, and she also another very personal one.
She said she had a dream where she saw like
a tea in the road with some trees, and she
said it had low quats in it. I don't know

(09:45):
what lowques are, but some fruit and she said someone
was shouting at her. And she had this dream a
couple of times, and then she said, like literally a
year later on that day, like the same day. She
does this a lot in her dreams, where it's the
same day that it happens later. But she said a
year later she had to go to uncle's funeral in

(10:06):
the countryside, and while she was driving out there, she
ended up at the same like tea spot. Like she
took a picture so it looked the same as what
she said she had drawn in her uh whatever dream journal,
but the only difference was it was a vineyard in
real life. And I guess she looked up the dream

(10:26):
meanings of low quats and that means something bad is coming.
And then she said someone was shouting at her, which
means a warning, so she thinks the dream was trying
to warn her that her uncle was gonna die. I mean, like, okay,
you can't verify that.

Speaker 2 (10:42):
Yeah, it's we don't get me wrong, Like I think
there is some some truth to you know, we can
kind of see beyond like the ether in the in dreams,
and I just don't think we have the capacity to
fully like understand that. And if she had it, like
if she's starting to see a pattern of like, holy shit,

(11:05):
this happens three hundred and sixty five days later, like
I wouldn't just be like waiting around to try to
find spots, you know what I mean? Yeah, right, I'd
be trying to figure out where it was at.

Speaker 1 (11:18):
Yeah, well it's not always a year later. Oh okay,
it's just the because like the Freddie Mercury thing, she
said November twenty fourth, nineteen seventy six, and he died
November twenty fourth, nineteen ninety one. Oh yeah, it's pretty different,
but it's the same day. So yeah, I don't know.
So then in the future I saw manga this like again,

(11:44):
added more details for that woman that was found in
the park, like it just retold that story, but added
more details.

Speaker 2 (11:50):
Sure, okay, it's like, okay, it's always easy to add
after the fat.

Speaker 1 (11:55):
Right, yeah, because she added details of like the woman's
clothing it looked exactly.

Speaker 2 (12:00):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (12:01):
Whatever. And then she also added more details to Freddy's death,
so it's just the same story, but added more details
where she said that he was going to die of
an epidemic of some sort, which was not in the
first one, and he did die from like the AIDS epidemic.
But it's like you added that.

Speaker 2 (12:20):
Way after the fact, yeah, because the.

Speaker 1 (12:23):
First one didn't mention anything about that. But whatever. Yeah.
She also expanded more on like that other dream she
said she had from Freddie Mercury, where it showed on
TV she was watching TV and it showed like statues
of the band Queen, and it didn't have Freddy in it,
so she was like, what, why isn't he there? And

(12:45):
then that just leads to or Lenz. I guess that
she saw that he was going to.

Speaker 2 (12:50):
Die or whatever. But once again after the fact.

Speaker 1 (12:55):
Right, yeah, and yeah. It also said a little bit
again about her uncle's death. She's just using the same
stuff again. But she also added another thing of like
her friend being broken up with and she saw that
in a dream, So I was like, okay. And also
something about some baby she saw in a dream from

(13:16):
a hostage incident and it was the same kid later
in an actual incident. I don't know. It was very
very brief of this monga. So I was like okay
because I had never heard those before. But and then
she details a prediction for an earthquake in a tsunami,

(13:38):
and she said she had this dream many times from
June to September nineteen eighty one, and she woke up
like in the dream. She woke up and it was
around five am in the dream, and then she saw
a very low tide like from an aerial view, and
then she saw like a pedestrian bridge that has like

(14:00):
resets of stairs and it was washed over by like
a massive wave. So that was one dream detail that
she had a lot and like in her thing because
it happened like she kept dreaming it from June to September.
She wrote the numbers nine and six, so then she
wasn't sure if it would happened in like nineteen ninety

(14:20):
six or June or September or whatever, right, but she
didn't specify a year. She just was thinking, oh, nine
and six, maybe ninety six, but she didn't like for
sure have a feeling of the year. But a lot
of people are saying that that's what should have happened
this year, since everyone was freaking out about July, right,

(14:41):
But it's not June. So I don't know why. But yeah,
the the dream bridge, I guess because she lives in Yokohama,
so when she had that dream, there wasn't a pedestrian
bridge like that. But then like in nineteen ninety six, well,
I don't know when they built it. Actually they built

(15:03):
it in nineteen ninety two. I guess they made this
pedestrian bridge that looked like the same as what she
was depicting. But that still was after she published.

Speaker 2 (15:13):
Yeah. I was about to say, was it after because
you said ninety two, so I'm assuming yes.

Speaker 1 (15:18):
It was built in ninety two. Yeah, yeah, okay, so
that was before she published. But in the in the
manga thing, she was like, oh, they just built it
in ninety six when she was talking to her friend
in the manga. So yeah, she was not. But it does,
I mean, since she has seen it though, it does
look exactly the same. But I don't know that could

(15:40):
happen in the future, I guess because she didn't. Yeah,
either June or September in the future.

Speaker 2 (15:48):
Sometimes that happens sometime in the future. June September, everybody look.

Speaker 1 (15:51):
Out, Yeah, I mean. People also said that she was
referring to the Kobe earthquake that happened inineteen ninety five
at five forty six am likes a lot of people
a tribute that she predicted that, but that was not
in the manga at all that I saw, So I
think people are just adding things to it. And that

(16:13):
also didn't cause the tsunami.

Speaker 2 (16:15):
Yeah. I was going to say, when you start to
see somebody that you maybe connect with with, like one
of those like interpersonal relationships, either through media or through
books or through something like that. Like we're a species
that like to see patterns and make patterns on our
own without actually having patterns or seeing anything. So yeah,

(16:37):
makes sense that people would just be like, oh, see
part of it told you.

Speaker 1 (16:42):
Right, yeah, but no, but yeah, the bridge is well,
people say it's the JR West exit for Isogo station
in Yokohama because it looks exactly the same. I don't know.
If you want to see a.

Speaker 2 (16:56):
Picture, share that screen, Sarah.

Speaker 1 (17:00):
Okay, I love sharing the screen even though that good
for podcasts.

Speaker 2 (17:06):
Great for YouTube though, here we go.

Speaker 1 (17:08):
Yeah, yeah, go check out our YouTube if you're listening. Okay,
So this is what she drew with the three stair thing,
and then this was a drawing of a picture she
took once they built it that was in the manga.
But then this is the actual bridge that people are
saying it is, which it does look a little bit yeah, similar,
I guess it all it looks similar to that.

Speaker 2 (17:31):
In all honesty, though, like what bridge does it look
quite that? Well?

Speaker 1 (17:38):
Not a lot of them have three sets of stairs, I.

Speaker 2 (17:42):
Mean fair, but I don't know.

Speaker 1 (17:46):
Oh okay, well, ah, but she just drew it to
look like it because it was built in January of
nineteen eighty.

Speaker 2 (17:55):
Yeah, I know, I know, well, but my thing, I'm
trying to think from like someone that maybe doesn't have
that information, right, so you wholeheartedly believe that that that
this is what she saw. It's like, yeah, in like
a metropolitan area that would like if I pictured a
bridge with walkways and stuff like that, I would probably

(18:16):
draw something extremely similar to what we just saw too,
you know that's true.

Speaker 1 (18:22):
So yeah, I mean this station is very close to
the Bay Area, like literally a mile away. So also,
a big tsunami hitting it is totally.

Speaker 2 (18:33):
Possible, especially in that region of the world for sure.

Speaker 1 (18:37):
Yeah, because that's happened all the time.

Speaker 2 (18:39):
Yeah, it's right on the Ring of Fire and those
underwater oace and earthquakes.

Speaker 1 (18:43):
Yeah right, yeah, I mean yeah, A lot of people
said that this prediction was for the July twenty twenty five,
but obviously that didn't happen because now we're recording in
its auguste yep, I mean, thank good goodness, did not happen.
But true. So then a lot of people look at

(19:05):
the cover of the nineteen ninety nine publication because Okay,
I guess I'll share again.

Speaker 2 (19:10):
Sorry, oh yeah, just.

Speaker 1 (19:12):
For a second, because the cover has a bunch of
little like pages with like predictions on them in Japanese
of course, but it has like these little pages that
say different dream stuff that she saw. So that's the cover.
But I'll stop sharing so it doesn't take over the
whole video. But but yeah, like the first paper said,

(19:39):
like her dream journal record from like nineteen eighty five
to nineteen ninety nine is kind of the theme of
the manga is it's all her dreams from that time period.
And then the next panel showed a volcano exploding, which
they said is Mount Fuji. She said, she said Mount
Fuji is gonna explode or erupt and the caption said,

(20:01):
I was watching TV and my dream in Mount Fuji
was erupting. And she also said it wasn't just black
clouds or falling ash like, it was a huge eruption,
which could be possible. Sure, that hasn't happened.

Speaker 2 (20:14):
Yet, but when it does, you know who predicted it?

Speaker 1 (20:17):
Yeah, right, yeah, And it said that that had been
dreamed on August twentieth, nineteen ninety one, so watch out
for August twentieth in the future, I guess, but.

Speaker 2 (20:28):
For the rest of your life, watch out for August twentieth.

Speaker 1 (20:32):
Well yeah, because she said later that she thought this
would happen in twenty twenty one. Obviously didn't happen. But
then she said, or every fifteen years.

Speaker 2 (20:43):
Oh my, twenty one forty one, twenty one, we're in
the next century.

Speaker 1 (20:50):
Every fifteen years. Yeah, well that's like eight cycles if
it's fifteen years. So I did the math. It it
checks out. But yeah, she said up to twenty one
forty one.

Speaker 2 (21:01):
Oh man, she has covered her bases. Dude, even in death.
She's going to be like, dude, see, she's going to
be the new Yeah. She was right, she was going
to be the new Damis Man.

Speaker 1 (21:10):
Yeah, yeah, right yeah. The next panel like talked about
an anniversary. Also, it's very small text and it's all
in Japanese, so I did my best, but a lot
of it I couldn't read. But it said something about
an anniversary and it said under it, like what is
this And I'm like, I don't know, girl, you tell us.

(21:34):
But then like I really couldn't read the rest and
it's just said the date like printed at the edge
of the notebook. Like referring to August second, nineteen ninety
two or nineteen ninety nine, sorry, which I think maybe
is when she dreamed it, but it's like it it
was literally didn't mean anything. That's not a prediction. Yeah,
and then the next panel said January second, nineteen ninety five,

(21:58):
but like, literally, I could not read the right of it.
It's too tiny and Japanese and I don't enough Japanese
to read tiny text.

Speaker 2 (22:07):
And to be fair, it could it could literally just
be a pattern of shapes at that point, like how
we do our animation, and yeah, we have text on it,
but there's actually if you zoom in and see there's
no text. It's just made it look.

Speaker 1 (22:21):
Like literally means nothing. Right, But people refer to that
panel as like her talking about the Kobe earthquake in
nineteen ninety five, Like people say it says January second,
nineteen eighty five, in fifteen days or fifteen years. It
likes that a lot. Yeah, But then they say it
showed a crack in Kobe, which I did not see

(22:45):
in the It did not look like that, but that
they're saying that predicted the Kobe earthquake, which was on
January fifteenth, nineteen ninety five, so it was fifteen days later.
But also this was published in nineteen ninety nine.

Speaker 2 (22:58):
So hello, we're using already no knowledge to predict stuff
that we supposedly allegedly thought of years before.

Speaker 1 (23:10):
But yeah, right, and like I definitely saw it five
but I did not see it didn't say fifteen days
or anything. It maybe said five days, but whatever height,
well fifteen, it.

Speaker 2 (23:21):
Was invisible by five, So I mean she's on the
right track.

Speaker 1 (23:25):
Yeah. People also say that that panel describes that she
said there would be a disease outbreak in April twenty
twenty and would occur ten years later, so basically predicting COVID.
But I again, I did not find April twenty twenty
in that panel, and I don't know where people are

(23:47):
like that could be people added that after it already happened, right,
and attributing it to her. I don't know.

Speaker 2 (23:55):
Well. And the thing is with like especially high dense
populated areas, like there is always some form of new
COVID coming up, and it has been for ever. So
I mean, yes, a pandemic that is recent that we
lived through, for sure would be convenient to do that.
But I don't think it was actually COVID. It could

(24:17):
have just been like a one of the other, you know,
communicable diseases that spread in that sort of environment.

Speaker 1 (24:24):
Right, So I'm going to skip. I'm going to talk
about the one very clear panel later after the at
the end. But the next panel had said something about Diana,
which people said predicted Princess Diana's death.

Speaker 2 (24:38):
Okay, but again.

Speaker 1 (24:39):
It's like very hard to read, so I really couldn't tell.
Besides that it said August thirty first, nineteen ninety two,
which is maybe when she dreamed it. Yeah, but she
did die. She did end up dying August thirty first,
nineteen ninety seven, but still that's after she published, so.

Speaker 2 (24:57):
Right, right, and then we're still last nominator here.

Speaker 1 (25:01):
Yeah, the last panel was literally impossible to tell what
it said. Besides that it had November second, nineteen ninety five,
which I assume is when the dream was, and then
it said July fifteenth with no year, So maybe that
was the big thing in July that was supposed to
happen that didn't happen.

Speaker 2 (25:17):
Very well, could have been or or we have between
fifteen and one hundred and some years ago.

Speaker 1 (25:28):
Yeah, true, right, but as clear as day. The one
panel that didn't have let me share again.

Speaker 2 (25:35):
Hell yeah, let's get it, and I'll have to zoom in.

Speaker 1 (25:40):
Let me zoom in.

Speaker 2 (25:42):
Let's zoom in.

Speaker 1 (25:44):
This boo this panel that has no picture or anything.
It clears Day says a big disaster in March twenty eleven.
So and she says she wrote that. I mean that
was published nineteen ninety nine, so that was the future
at that point, like that hadn't happened yet. And obviously

(26:05):
there was a big disaster in March twenty eleven in
Japan because that's when the giant like nine point one
earthquake happened that caused like one hundred over one hundred
foot tsunami that shut down the nuclear reactors and everything.
So everyone's I think, just this is why everyone's like

(26:25):
saying she can tell the future, sure, because she just
wrote that in She said, like the day before she
had to send this to publication to like get it published,
she's had a dream where it was just like a
white background and it just had that text in black.
So she just wrote it in there. That's what she said.

(26:46):
And that's why there's no picture or anything because she
had left that page blank because she wasn't sure what
to put there yet.

Speaker 2 (26:52):
Well, that is interesting because usually when people embellish stories
too much, the more they embellish, the more of Aliat
is right. So that is kind of interesting that it's
just the date.

Speaker 1 (27:06):
Right, and it just it does just say big disaster.
But still that was a big disaster.

Speaker 2 (27:12):
Yeah, well, because because what I what I hate is
when I hear these people that talk about like what's
going to happen in the future, and they give you
like exact details and this is exactly what's going to
happen in this place, and it's like the odds of
of you actually being right it's not zero, but it's
pretty fucking low to embellish a story like that. But

(27:34):
just to have I mean, like I said, I think
I think we've talked about it a little bit in
the dreams, but I think that is it's not only
introspective on what you're doing, but I think you can
also kind of tap into the the other side of
the the veil, so to speak, or the extra dimensions
that are out there, and that information could just be there,

(27:55):
you know.

Speaker 1 (27:57):
Yeah, I mean, that could have been something that actually
came through and she just wrote it down and it
came true. But the rest of it is just her
telling her stories, Like I mean, yeah, so that was weird.
But yeah, I also saw somewhere. It wasn't in the
manga that I could find, but she said she saw

(28:20):
a dream on December twenty fifth, two thousand and one,
where she was like looking down on the earth and
she saw waves spreading around Indonesia, which which then there
was the two thousand and four Boxing Day tsunami. But
I don't know, I couldn't really find if that was
actually her or like again, someone just attributing it to her. Sure,

(28:44):
but yeah, I don't know. Maybe it's in the dream
journal that she published, but I'm not too sure about that.
But yeah, the new cover, so she made a new
book in twenty eleven or twenty twenty one. That's just
the future I saw. Still, I don't know if there's
any different. Honestly, I don't think a lot.

Speaker 2 (29:03):
Of retelling of every time I've been right.

Speaker 1 (29:08):
Yeah, I don't maybe, but the cover looks pretty much
the same, except the woman's not crying in the new cover.
But then it had like an Obi banner, which Obi's
like the sash on kimono. So like when they just
do like a little banner thing around the book, they
call it an obi banner.

Speaker 2 (29:25):
Oh okay, okay, okay. Yeah.

Speaker 1 (29:28):
But that said the real disaster will happen in July
twenty twenty five, and that was post twenty twenty one,
So she went all in on that date. And I
feel like that was just a marketing thing or like
they made her pick a date or something. But right,
because that didnt here.

Speaker 2 (29:47):
We are recording as of today, August fifth, of twenty
twenty five, and no said disaster. But Sarah, we probably
have a fifteen day window.

Speaker 1 (29:58):
Yeah, probably, or maybe a year's window fifteenth yeah, woa, or.

Speaker 2 (30:04):
A fifteen hundred year window.

Speaker 1 (30:08):
Well, I don't know about that far, but I don't know.
It's the I guess her saying the real disaster will
happened in July twenty twenty five. She said it was
just the same right before publication where she had a
dream that she saw a warning in like black and
white like she did with the March twenty eleven and
it said it said that the real disaster will happen

(30:31):
in July twenty twenty five, and then she saw a
scene after that, so it was a little different from
the March twenty eleven.

Speaker 2 (30:39):
So she's embellishing a little bit, right.

Speaker 1 (30:42):
She saw she said, she saw the ocean. She saw
from like a satellite view, and she saw the ocean
bubbling up, and then there were like ripples of waves,
like from the sea between Japan and the Philippines, and
she saw Hong Kong, Taiwan and the Philippine like become
one land mask because of how much water moved.

Speaker 2 (31:04):
Oh shit, yeah.

Speaker 1 (31:07):
And then she said she also saw like an image
of dragons, which you can see that in the satellite image.
And then she said, like the spot because she picked
a spot on the map where she said it originated from.
And later well later people say that caldera was discovered there,

(31:27):
called the Apo Lachi Caldera, So it must have been
that that was erupting. But when I looked into that,
the caldera was discovered in twenty nineteen and this was
published in twenty twenty one.

Speaker 2 (31:40):
How convenient.

Speaker 1 (31:42):
Yeah, so whatever, because a lot of people I saw said,
like she said, where it was, and then they later
found that caldera and it's like, no, that's backwards. But whatever.
But she also had said that if this did happen,
the tsunami would be three times as big as the
one in twenty eleven, so like a four hundred foot tsunami, right,

(32:05):
and that's why people attribute her bridge being washed away
to this prediction, I guess. But but yeah, none of
that came true. And I did see something that said
the Yokohama bridge was supposed to be twenty twenty six,
so I guess we'll have to see next year. But

(32:28):
she went all in on the July twenty twenty five,
I think, to sell more and to put that will
be banner there. Yeah. So like so it's already didn't happen,
So she's.

Speaker 2 (32:39):
Already like I discredited it.

Speaker 1 (32:43):
Yeah yeah, so it is like crazy what it's just
so hard to find what she has said versus what
everyone attributes to her. But the March twenty eleven is
for sure, So she's like one out.

Speaker 2 (32:57):
Of thirty or something. Yeah, got better going to us casino.

Speaker 1 (33:07):
Yeah, I guess, yeah, I mean the Mount Fuji. I
guess we'll have to see. As she did say every
fifteen years, well if it erupted on not a year
that she said, then she'd be wrong. Well, I mean,
because there's a lot more years so that she could
be wrong, that's fair. But yeah, I mean July did

(33:28):
there were a lot of things that happened in July,
but just not where she talked about specifically.

Speaker 2 (33:34):
Yeah. So I remember texting you because I was, again,
pretty ignorant about exactly what this lady had predicted. And
I'm not gonna lie, dude. When I saw that tsunami
off the coast of Russia, I was like, oh shit,
was she right? And You're like, well, no, but kind

(33:55):
of but not really. And now that that little text
that you sent makes so much more sense that I
have context for this fucking.

Speaker 1 (34:02):
Lady, right, Yeah, I mean that was great. A lot
of people did say, oh, she was right because that
happened on like the when did that happen, Like the
twentieth or the audieth.

Speaker 2 (34:13):
Yeah, it was like the end of the month, like right.

Speaker 1 (34:16):
At the end, right, So, and the tsunami should have
been bigger for sure, Like that could have been really bad,
but it just didn't happen. I lost connection again, am
I there?

Speaker 2 (34:33):
No, It's all good. I got you.

Speaker 1 (34:34):
Yeah, Okay, did you hear what I said? The tsunami
could have been a lot worse for sure.

Speaker 2 (34:41):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (34:42):
Yeah, it was like nothing, and it should have been,
like everyone went on alert, so it should have been
really bad. But so maybe that was it and it
just didn't happen.

Speaker 2 (34:52):
Well that's what I was kind of like kind of
waiting to see because I knew that because it hit
Russia first, didn't it.

Speaker 1 (35:00):
Yes, yeah, and.

Speaker 2 (35:00):
Then everybody else in like the surrounding area of like
Pacific Islands and stuff like that were on alert. And
I remember seeing in Alaska. Yeah, yeah, And I remember
seeing I think I was frolling through TikTok and it
was people in Hawaii like live streaming, you know, to
see like and then nothing happened.

Speaker 1 (35:19):
Right, Yeah, I saw like the time lapse in Hawaii,
and I was like, I can't even.

Speaker 2 (35:23):
Tell what I happened.

Speaker 1 (35:25):
So I that could have, but that was not where
she pointed on the map. So since she pointed the
map then, But yeah, I mean, I don't know if
you saw this like July fifth, like for us it
was July fourth, I guess, but like a Indonesian volcano,
like that massive volcano eruption, I thought at first that

(35:48):
was starting what she predicted, because that's closer to where
she said.

Speaker 2 (35:53):
Well, to be fair, that is that that whole area
on the Ring of Fire, you do have these smaller
things that do happen before the big event. Ro I mean,
I'm not trying to give this lady any like credence
or anything. I'm just saying that if it was fifteen

(36:14):
days from now or fifteen days from the end of
July or whatever, like, yeah, it's entirely possible that these
are just little like inklins to the big thing that's
going to happen for sure. I mean, right, because we've
seen that happen before.

Speaker 1 (36:28):
M h yeah. Yeah. And there were two other big
earthquakes in Indonesia I guess on the fourteenth, and then
there was another one on the twenty third and the
twenty fourth, but they were inland. They didn't cause they
I mean, they just get stuff so much all the time.
But it does lead to other bigger ones. So maybe

(36:49):
it took something loose and that's going to happen later.
But fifteen days when she said yeah, it's like.

Speaker 2 (36:55):
It's like the girl from the Ring calling you.

Speaker 1 (36:59):
Right, Oh my god. Yeah, I mean, if it happens
like August fifteenth. I mean, I feel like that's close enough,
but I mean probably not.

Speaker 2 (37:09):
Yeah. But at the same time, well, don't get me wrong.
If August fifteenth comes around and it's the exact spot
that she pointed to on the map where originated from
and there's massive destruction, I might have a little bit
of like, Okay, this lady might know what she's doing
or not know what she's doing, but actually be receiving
dreams that are actual warnings. But if you tell me

(37:34):
twelve years from now that that happens, that there was
a massive earthquake and a tsunami hit, I'm gonna be like, Okay,
that's what happens in that part of the world from
time to time.

Speaker 1 (37:44):
Well yeah, right, that happens all the time. Well, I
was thinking though, because if it is the Yokohama dream,
she said she had that from June to September, so
I'm thinking it could be any time between June and
September if it happens like, because there's not like one
that's gonna be the exact same day as the dream

(38:04):
since she dreamed it so many times that's true, So
ill better watch out till not to cause any panic.
Listeners if anyone pass to mehit like I don't want
to say, because this did cause a lot of panic,
like for since it got so big in the news,
like so many people canceled their trips for July.

Speaker 2 (38:25):
For ten oh yeah, yeah, but it.

Speaker 1 (38:27):
Did cause a lot of problems, but for sure. But yeah,
when I was looking at the earthquakes and stuff, like
the all the earthquakes that happened in July in the area,
I saw, like the Russia one, there were a lot
of warning ones ahead of time. I don't know if
anyone's familiar, but like there was one on the twentieth

(38:48):
that was seven point four, oh shit, already like already
big yeah, and it had one like before that happened
as a warning, and then it had three aftershocks on
the same day, so like the twentyeth already had like five,
and then there was another aftershock on the twenty second
and on the twenty fourth because of this seven point
four point so it's already like leading up to it.

(39:11):
And then the big one, yeah, was eight point eight
on the twenty ninth, and it had five aftershocks between
the twenty ninth and thirty first, so I could have
loosened stuff up. But but yeah, I was just that
was crazy that the tsunami. I guess it was thirty
feet in Russia, but that area in Russia is pretty remote,

(39:32):
so it didn't cause really any problems, right.

Speaker 2 (39:34):
Yeah, I and having the context, I wasn't aware of
how big the actual tsunami was, and thirty feet has
nothing to joke about. But over the course of like
going through the Pacific Ocean, like across deep water and
stuff like that, it's.

Speaker 1 (39:52):
It's not it didn't do anything. Yeah. I guess this earthquake,
the eight point eight, it's now number eight in the
world's largest earthquakes since nineteen hundred when they're still measuring it. Yep.
But the japan one in twenty eleven, that's like at
number four.

Speaker 2 (40:13):
Yeah, yeah, I would assume that one was up in
the top five at least.

Speaker 1 (40:17):
Yeah, it was like four, three or four. But yeah, yeah,
that's kind of it. We already talked about a lot
of this stuff already talked about. But just like the
Ring of Fire again, like her saying that there's going
to be a big one that causes like a giant
like people have talked about the big one, like in

(40:38):
La they talk about that and Japan two outside of Naguia,
where I studied abroad, they always talked about there's gonna
be a big one in that area, like they're overdue.

Speaker 2 (40:49):
Yeah, it's the same thing you hear about Yellowstone, the
caldera that's out there. Yeah, it's any day, any any
day between now and the next six hundred thousand years,
it could go. It's like, okay, like, what do you
want to do in that information?

Speaker 1 (41:07):
Well, Mount Fuji is the same, I guess.

Speaker 2 (41:10):
Yeah, And I mean, so the thing the thing about
it is, and I think that even if we did
know the day it was going to happen, it's so
catastrophic that you're not going to be able to do
anything about it anyway, you know.

Speaker 1 (41:26):
So I guess you could evacuate the area if you knew.

Speaker 2 (41:30):
Well sure, but I'm talking about die instantly. Yeah sure, sure,
just a starve from you know, having a right.

Speaker 1 (41:39):
Especially the Yellowstone one. Yeah.

Speaker 2 (41:42):
Yeah, Well that's what I'm saying, you know what I mean.
It's like, right, if some of these massive calderas were
to explode, it's going to be a worldwide issue. It's
not just going to be isolated to the region. Like,
don't get me wrong, Like, yes, the United States would
get fucked up from that Yellowstone calledera exploding, but the

(42:04):
wind currents are going to carry that all the way
around the world and someone's going to feel it in
some way, shape or form for sure.

Speaker 1 (42:13):
So yeah, another ice age, I guess.

Speaker 2 (42:15):
Yeah, well yeah, well so.

Speaker 1 (42:19):
Yeah Mount Fuji, we just gotta wait for that one
fifteen one would be twenty thirty six, well sent fifteen
years since twenty twenty one. Mm okay, so yeah, twenty
thirty six, twenty fifty one, twenty sixty six, twenty eighty one,
twenty ninety six, twenty one eleven, twenty one, twenty six,

(42:42):
or twenty one forty one. Those are the options.

Speaker 2 (42:45):
Oh well, at least I'll only be alive for probably
about four of.

Speaker 1 (42:51):
The ice Yeah. So yeah, that sounds like a big
future problem. Yeah, I guess said it. I mean, the
last time I erupted was seven o seven, and before
that time had erupted it, it had been dormant for four
hundred years, so we are kind of like getting close
to it could pop off again.

Speaker 2 (43:11):
Yeah, I don't know, It's one of those things. Once again,
Like I said, though, it's like, what are you going
to do about it? Even if you do know?

Speaker 1 (43:17):
Yeah, you know, right, because you also don't know the
type of because there's so many different types of explosions
that could have. Yeah, that's more devastating or not.

Speaker 2 (43:26):
Yeah, I mean it's so I think when people think
of volcanoes and stuff like that, they think of like
what they've seen on like national geographic of like lava
flows and you know, something that's not really like an
explosion pushing a bunch of dust and material into the air,
and like the scariest part about like the Mount Saint
Helen's one is like and then the same thing like

(43:47):
POMPEII is like the pyroclastic flow that happened of this
like superheated ash that just like consumed and it's like
a rolling tide almost, and it's like you're fucked if
you get caught in that.

Speaker 1 (43:59):
Oh yeah, I mean once you see it, you're already
too late to get away.

Speaker 2 (44:05):
Yeah yeah, so you might as well just you know,
take it and you're just gonna get buried by that
ship and you know, suffocate and burn alive or whatever.
You know. So I don't know, but good, good to
know that we have some options. I suppose I like
having options, you know, right, yeah.

Speaker 1 (44:24):
Just don't climb Mount Fuji those years.

Speaker 2 (44:26):
Well you know what, Sarah listeners, maybe we should plan
a trip in fifteen years to go to Mount Fuji
to climb it and see if it happens, and they
would be the most epic way to go out.

Speaker 1 (44:35):
Okay, yeah, I'm climbing Mount Fuji is already rough.

Speaker 2 (44:39):
Yeah I was gonna say, I don't think I would
want to do that anyway. No, you know, you get
to one of the close space camps to the peak
and it just goes off. It's like, thank god, I
was over this anyway, right.

Speaker 1 (44:52):
Yeah, yeah, I already saw most of the views. Now
I don't have to go down.

Speaker 2 (44:57):
This is great, right right, good way to go.

Speaker 1 (45:00):
So but yeah, I mean, yeah, she's one for four
or five aguins, so it's not not horrible any good,
I guess.

Speaker 2 (45:10):
Yeah, but considering the context of I know this already happened,
but this is what I dreamed.

Speaker 1 (45:16):
Right, Yeah, yeah, if we take out those then she's
one for three.

Speaker 2 (45:23):
Yeah, So I don't I don't know. Now, I I
believe she believes for sure. I don't think it's true.

Speaker 1 (45:34):
Though, Yeah, I mean, I guess. There's also like when
you tell the future, dependent on how far in the future,
it is like so many things change, so it's like
you saw something that was the future in that moment
that you saw it, but then so many years past
and all these factors change and then it changes the

(45:55):
outcome or whatever is one theory, So she could have
seen it. I mean, obviously I would assume she dreamed these.
I don't think she's making them up, I guess, but
you know, they're just dreams, so right, maybe maybe once
in a while they actually tell you something.

Speaker 2 (46:12):
But well, I would refer back to your episode where
you talked about your dreams and I'm telling you what, Sarah,
I don't know what half of those would even actually mean,
they guess. Was mine just being crazy during that cycle of.

Speaker 1 (46:27):
M Yeah, I had another dream last night, and I
let's get it, well, just a lot of crazy stuff happened,
but I just remembered mainly that I was with coworkers,
like in packaging whatever. I was doing the same job,
but they gave me this like big loaf of bread

(46:48):
that was like a pastry kind of bread, and I
ate almost all of it until I was like, wait
a second, I'm gluten free and I'm about to throw
up or something like I should not have eaten this.
And I was like, oh my god, I've just poisoned
to myself. And then and then the dream changed and
I was like on a flying creature with like mom

(47:10):
and some other people, and we were it was like
an airplane, but it was a creature. We are open air.
And then she ended up falling off like over the ocean,
but it was close enough to land that she swam
to like swam to land. But then I was like,
wait a second, that's not my mom because she can't swam.

(47:30):
I was like, wait where are you?

Speaker 2 (47:34):
That's all I remember, Jesus christ Man. We need to
we need to figure out, we need to we need
to hire a dream interpreter that's not super wo oh
oh my.

Speaker 1 (47:45):
God, and then bring him on.

Speaker 2 (47:47):
That'd be fun, That's what I'm saying. Yeah, listeners, if
you know anybody that can interpret dreams and they don't
charge an arm and a leg, I would love to
sit down and talk to them on the show because
that would be really, really interesting. And if you're full
of shit, I'm going to talk shit, so keep that
in mind too. Yeah, so hope you have thick skin
if you're full of it.

Speaker 1 (48:09):
So you have to Oh well, well you don't have to,
I guess, but that's true. But but yeah, well that's it.

Speaker 2 (48:19):
Well, yeah, it's I think it's a bunch of shit,
if we're being honest. That's my time.

Speaker 1 (48:25):
It just got so like in the news and like.

Speaker 2 (48:30):
It got sensationalized off of one.

Speaker 1 (48:32):
Yeah, right, so felt like I had to talk about it.
But looking at it for more than thirty minutes, it's like, Okay,
it would.

Speaker 2 (48:41):
Have been awesome because listeners, full disclosure, we waited to
do this until the end of July just to see
if this was actually going to happen, and like like
Sarah said at the beginning, thankfully nothing crazy did happen
because we'd you know, I don't want any loss of
life or destruction of property or anything crazy from national

(49:04):
natural disasters more so than they already happen already. So
good that it didn't. But that's why we were waiting
to see if something did.

Speaker 1 (49:14):
Happen and see if it was true. Yeah, but no, no,
I guess we'll update if it happens in August or.

Speaker 2 (49:20):
Fifteen years from now, listeners, you will hear us talking
about this about Mount Fuji and or that cold era
that we were also talking about. Yeah, so we shall see.
