Speaker 1 (00:00):
Damn it, Jim, I'm a doctor, not an exorcist.

Speaker 2 (00:02):
It's one more thing. Oh my god, that's right, an
original Star Trek reference. Take it. You gotta sit there
and take it. Oh I love track Doctor Bones McCoy, Yeah,
that's right, Bones, the Great DeForest Kelly, Yes, yes, oh track.

Speaker 1 (00:27):
So it was damn it, Jim, I'm a doctor, not
an exorcist.

Speaker 2 (00:31):
Exorcist, that's correct. But first let me reminisce Gladys. There
was my undergraduate days in the Great Plains of Illinois.
Of a Sunday night when the studying was done, if
any studying was done at all, I would get together
with quite a few of the fellas in a friend
Mike's room, and we would get to quote the great

(00:53):
Bill Murray in a contemporary film of the time, Stone
to the Bejesus Belt, and watch the original Star t
I can just laugh at it. Oh my god, so
much fun. Anyway, I had to watch some track just
to bring them back to those those good times. Anyway.

Speaker 1 (01:11):
Uh So, the point that television had its upsides, oh
one hundred percent. The everybody watches it whenever, or you
watch all the episodes at once or whatever. It's more convenient,
but it's it'll, like everything else in the modern world,
it lost its social cohesiveness.

Speaker 2 (01:29):
Yeah. I used to rant back in the nineties as
my kids were grown up, and both my wife and
I just loved the Christmas specials, the Rudolph's Red Nose, Reindeer,
Santa Claus Coming to Town, all those and and then
they became available on videotape and you'd buy them or whatever,
and you can watch them anytime you want, or watch them,

(01:49):
you know, three times in a row on a June day,
And and I realized that we had lost a rhythm
of the seasons and the days and the various high
points that come in a year when everything's available all
the time. I understand the advantage of it. I'm not

(02:10):
sure we realized what we lost anyway. Yeah, appointment TV ah,
good stuff.

Speaker 3 (02:16):
So J d.

Speaker 2 (02:17):
Vant said this the Benny Show not terribly long ago,
and we were marked on it a little bit but
didn't talk about it much.

Speaker 4 (02:27):
I'm obsessed with this. I've already had a couple of
space on Area fifty one. We're going out to New Mexico.
We're just sort of get to the bottom of this.
And then the timing of the trip just didn't work out.
But trust me, anybody who's curious about this, I'm more
curious than anybody, and I've got three years of the
very tippy top of the classification. I'm gonna get to
the bottom of it.

Speaker 2 (02:47):
I don't think I don't think there are aliens. I
think they're demons anyway. But that's a longer discussion. WHOA.

Speaker 1 (02:53):
So there's a guy who Yale Law School, Marbaro Law School,
one of those who says, I'm going to get to
the bottom of this about Area fifty one in aliens
with a straight face.

Speaker 2 (03:06):
But they're not aliens, they're demons. But that's a longer discussion.

Speaker 1 (03:10):
No, that makes it crazier, not less crazy, does it?

Speaker 2 (03:14):
Does it well? I came across this story. I've heard
no coverage of it whatsoever. At the end of last week,
the Archbishop of Washington, d C. Removed a longtime archdiocesan exorcist,
saying his recent comments about UFOs being demons gravely undermined
church teachings. This month's Senior Stephen Rossetti, is a priest

(03:37):
and psychologist who's held prominent positions in the Archdiocese of
Washington d C. For decades. Absolutely a sort of guy,
the sort of guy who fairly recent Catholic convert JD.
Vance would get to know as the sitting VP.

Speaker 1 (03:56):
So you went by something that maybe everybody knew but me,
that the Catholic Church has exorcists.

Speaker 2 (04:06):
Yeah, yeah, it's not like in the movies, but yeah
it's four Let me, what do you do with them? Actually?

Speaker 1 (04:14):
What does a position entail? How does it pay?

Speaker 2 (04:19):
The benef Catholics frame struggling wrongdoing is the spiritual war
between good, evil and good. The center offers the center
that part of offers information about exorcisms, which are considered
sacramental rights. According to material posted on the archdiocesan website
oh BAH, citing Catholic teaching, the website defines exorcism as

(04:40):
quote when the Church asks publicly and authoritatively, in the
name of Jesus Christ, that a person or object be
protected against the power of the evil One and withdraw
from his dominion, out demon out anyway to the the
UFO thing. Though, so, this guy was had had important

(05:01):
positions in that diocese for years, listed as a Catholic
university professor, served as chaplain for the Washington nationals hey
baa baa hey bara and leads this St. Michael Center
for Spiritual Renewal, which does exorcist it anyway. So in
a statement last week, Cardinal Robert McElroy, the archbishop, said

(05:23):
that Rosetti was being removed as an exorcist and the
archdiocese was severing its connection to the Saint Michael Center.
McElroy said his statement statements Rosetti made about UFOs. Such statements,
the Cardinal said, gravely undermined the church's very precise teaching
on the devil, demons and exorcism the two days prior
to this, So this was like a The archbishop found

(05:46):
out and said he's fired. Immediately. He was on the
YouTube show This Rosetti Fellow Faith, Hope and Love Ministry
to talk about what the program characterized as aliens or demons,
and Rosetti said on the show, demons like to hide.
They don't want us to know what they're doing because

(06:06):
they're more effective when we don't realize it. Demons can
break into the physical world, take this shape of shadows
or possessed houses or ghosts that someone might contact via
a medium. All of that connects us with the dark world.
I'm sorry. All that connects us with the dark world
is a portal, and the Bible in the church warn
us against this. There's no question in my mind personally

(06:27):
that probably many, if not most, of these UFO sightings
are demons, and they do things we can't do. Thus
the speed of like the alleged crafts interesting.

Speaker 1 (06:39):
I'm trying to think where I am on this sort
of thing. Do I believe evil exists? Yes? Who I
believe in demons? I've never thought about that before breaking
it down into demons. Do I think the demons do
things that are like measurable the way flying aircraft ftar

(07:01):
observable on radar? Right? Probably not? Yeah, but I haven't
spent a lot of time thinking about this.

Speaker 2 (07:11):
Uh.

Speaker 1 (07:12):
If jd Vance runs for president, he'll have to answer
for those comments and either say he was joking or something.

Speaker 2 (07:19):
Right now, I don't think he was joking. I think
I don't think he was Rosetti.

Speaker 1 (07:24):
I don't think he was either. But that's a pretty
out there religious belief, isn't it.

Speaker 2 (07:29):
Yeah?

Speaker 1 (07:30):
Among most people. Yeah, No, there aren't aliens. There are
demons flying around that we pick up on radar on
a regular basis. And that's why they can't. We can't
explain him their demons. That's that's a pretty out there thought.

Speaker 2 (07:43):
Uh. Some people who I know and trust and care
about a great deal had friends who were enduring a
period of their lives where there was a great deal
of anger and bitterness and sickness in their relationship. And
in the account that was told to me many years ago,

(08:05):
these people invited a clergyman to their home at least
one and maybe other friends, and they prayed fervently that
whatever was going on would stop, and they reported unquestionably
what sounds like a supernatural phenomenon of loud whooshing and

(08:27):
loud noises, just like out of a movie. And when
that was over, the demon was gone from the relationship
and they were back to being themselves. Now, you can
interpret that anyway you want. I don't tell people how
to interpret God or evil or anything. It's on you.

Speaker 1 (08:43):
But I do. I've got a like a ten point plan.
Let me tell you how to interpret God. No, So
was it multiple people reporting the same thing as opposed
to individual experiences.

Speaker 2 (08:55):
I just got the account through the two people I knew. Two.
I can't remember if they were both there but they
were the sort of people who are not prone to nuttiness. Right, well,
my sincere belief.

Speaker 1 (09:08):
For sure, it would be more extraordinary to me if
there were two people that experienced the same thing at
the same time, because I always wonder what the brain
is capable of, or are psyche or whatever. Because I've
told the story before about when the last day that
I almost drank, I'm coming up on twenty years of
sobriety as an alcoholic, and the last day that I

(09:30):
almost drank January seven, two thousand and seven, I had
walked into a bar and ordered a beer from a guy,
and I was watching myself from above like a camera
shot in a movie. And then later that day I
went to a church and I heard a popping sound
and the desire to drink left me and is never returned.

(09:51):
So that is like unexplainable to me, as like anything
normal in my life. I don't have anything else in
my life within one thousand miles of the those two
things happening to me one day.

Speaker 2 (10:02):
Right.

Speaker 1 (10:02):
But whether or not that was just like the pressure
of an addiction psyche something I don't I don't know.

Speaker 2 (10:09):
I have no idea. Maybe you just needed a chiropractor,
that was your spine going.

Speaker 1 (10:14):
But if me and someone else had had that same
experience at the same time, that would be a completely
different thing.

Speaker 2 (10:21):
Yes, while there are many cases of not mass but
multiple people suffering the same delusion and reinforcing it in
each other, it is a horse of a different color
and two people experience it at the same time or
even claim to.

Speaker 1 (10:37):
Yeah, that's interesting.

Speaker 2 (10:38):
Yeah, demons jd vance not or not take your calls. Oh,
that's right, it's a podcast. He will just ring.

Speaker 1 (10:48):
I mean, if they were going to make a big
deal out of George Jilby a bush, you know, citing
Bible verses throughout his life, a guy talking about demons
being spotted by Pilots's got definitely have to explain it.
If he runs for president.

Speaker 2 (11:05):
I'd love to talk to him or this monsignor Rosetti
about it their beliefs. I'm not threatened by people who
believe things I don't or or I don't understand. I'd
love to hear. I'd love to hear his point of view.

Speaker 1 (11:16):
It was jade Van's always religious and then he converted
to Catholicism from being religious as a Protestant or is
this all new to him because nobody has the fervor
like the recently converted, as Saint Augustine said, or somebody.

Speaker 2 (11:30):
Right, he should mind his own business. I don't recall
anything from Hillbilly Elegy about his religious fervor at all,
but I did then he probably didn't ultimate memory have it.

Speaker 1 (11:40):
And then he uh converted to Catholicism with his wife,
and he's talked about that a lot, and he's like
super serious about it now. But that's really interesting stuff.
I don't believe in extraterrestrials. I believe they're demons, and
I'm going to get to the bottom of it. Okay,
please do if you can. That'd be some you know,
breaking news. There are demons, right and they fly around.

Speaker 2 (12:03):
Yikes. Run for your lives or pray or something. Get right,
that's right, Get right with the Lord, or get yourself
a good exorcist. Go on angi dot com. You can
see your neighbors recommendations and certifications and the rest of it.

Speaker 3 (12:20):
Storm area fifty one. They can't stop all of us.
With an American Facebook event that took place on September twentieth,
twenty nineteen.

Speaker 2 (12:27):
Out do you guys, remember that.

Speaker 3 (12:29):
Yes, about one hundred and fifty people showed up at
the entrance and pretended they were going to storm the bell.

Speaker 1 (12:33):
It was fun.

Speaker 2 (12:34):
Oh, and the authorities looked all worried about it. That
was just before COVID. It was a more innocent time.

Speaker 1 (12:39):
Yeah, it was we need to get more people together.
If we could get tens of thousands, then it would
be true. They can't stop all of us.

Speaker 2 (12:44):
Oh forgot, what are you.

Speaker 1 (12:45):
Gonna get a most down like we're Iranian protesters. No,
let us see the demons or air ets.

Speaker 2 (12:51):
The bones, show me the bones.

Speaker 3 (12:55):
Well, I guess that's it.
