right. Oh wait, I was just about to
type in the YT chat. Technical difficulties, but.
There's no technical difficulties.
I like to keep them, you know, let's just, let's get them build
up there. Let's get them anticipation
rise. Yeah, right.
You know. What's going on?
The Nexus. Edward, don't start.
Don't make me regret doing this down here.
Just getting myself started. I'm welcome everybody to
Splinter Spirits live. Hope everybody can hear us OK.
If you're on TikTok watching, you have a better experience
over on YouTube. Just so you know, that's what
I'm looking at over there. What's going on, everybody?
Hello, hello. Welcome, welcome.
We got a nice little crowd here. All right, off to a big start
25. Let's see if this new time slot
pays off. Yeah, if you're here, welcome.
And be sure to follow, like, subscribe to all things
Splintered Spirits. Yeah, it's not what's going on.
How was your day? My day was good, cleaned a
couple of grades, you know, baked in the sun.
It was nice. Baked in the sun.
Yeah, yeah, it was nice. That's better.
I can hear you a little better with these on this, you know.
All right. How'd it go?
Did you get any, get any good stuff?
Any spirits give you any business?
Yeah, the couple spirits who are responsive.
So I still have to go through, go through the replays, see if,
well, it's, it's hard to hear over the scrubbing, you know?
What I'm saying, you got to, you got to figure out a way maybe
you could put like an earbud in one ear and like, you know, have
the speaker for the audience and have an earbud in another ear so
you can hear it. Oh, maybe, maybe I got to see if
I could do that. Let's see if I could do that.
So, well, I'm scrubbing, see the the whole listen, it's funny
because there's so many good ideas, right?
It's so many things you could do.
You don't understand. All right, Edward, stay at.
Oh yes, Edward, our favorite ghost guys.
That's Edward for anybody new. So the simpler the better, you
know what I mean? Like the more technical, the
more stress on me which makes I have a miserable experience.
Right, it's a lot of if. I'm having a miserable
experience. The live isn't going to be good.
I'm going to be off my game. I get it, man.
It's like even even sitting up here, it's like I'm just sitting
at my desk and it's like, oh right, let me get the phone
going because I can't simulcast the TikTok and it's like, oh, do
I have my headphones in and is this hooked in?
Everything becomes an absolute pain in the ass with ever the
more little pieces that you have.
Yes, I get it for sure. So and you know, and the other
thing like a little insight to the tech, we were kind of
talking about this last night. And so me and Gary were, you
know, just having said, you know, a tech chat and like when
I go to a spot, like I literally have to look and wait to see
what phone is going to give me the best service for the stream.
You know, I literally have Boost Mobile, Mobile, Verizon.
And I have to, you know, look and see, OK, you know, let me
walk over here, service is good. Let me walk over here, service
is good. You know, and you know exactly
how I got here. Unless you're talking to
somebody else, Edward, you know, like, so it's the tech aspect of
it's a pain in the ass. Yeah.
That's why, like people always like, oh, this is fake.
This is fake, yo. There is no way I would be able
to fake this. You know what I found today?
Speaking of tech that I wish I could use, I found my old Razor.
This was my favorite phone, a Razor flip phone.
Dude, look at the size of it. First of all, it's dope.
I mean, it was like if I could go back to this universe.
And I love the idea of closing a phone.
Yep. Do you know what I mean?
Yeah, yeah. It's like official conversation
over. Yeah, it's over, right?
Like it just ends. It's it conversation?
Over and I, and I don't know if you're like me, dude, but
everywhere in my house, if you're I, I don't know, do you
have like just cables, like cables for plugs, different
plugs for different things. I have boxes I have.
Of plugs and that's why I found this is I was looking for a
certain USB and it was like and oh look at this I don't know why
the hell I have it or I have all these cables like I'm ever going
to need some sort of FireWire fit like thing with an other end
that sticks it to the it's the stupidest shit but all right we
got a lively bunch I like to start the chat off you know we
did this we had this fun thing yesterday to get the chat riled
and I got a new. One going I got a new knowledge.
For him. Here's the new question for
everybody. Let's hear what you have to say.
Feel free to dive in breakfast cereal.
We all know breakfast cereal anything doesn't matter what
breakfast cereal Don't don't ask me.
What about grape nuts? It doesn't matter It could be
Cheerios. You know apple Jacks for who
cares? You put in a bowl, you pour milk
on top and don't start saying but what if it's oat milk?
You understand what I'm saying when I say cereal is cereal
soup? It's.
Cold soup, it's cold soup. It's.
Everybody there, it's cereal soup.
Does it count as soup? Yeah.
I'm seeing some nose, I'm seeing some lols, you know?
Yeah. You guys think cold soup?
Let's get this chat warmed up. Let's get the heat.
Electric. Electric.
Yeah, let it, let it bring it. Let's make it electric.
No, I'm getting some nose. Yes.
No. Oh, this is controversial.
Cold soup. No.
Milk isn't broth. So it's apparently someone
thinks soup requires by definition, broth.
Broth. Nose.
On TikTok. I'm seeing nose.
But doesn't gravy. Gravy.
When you make gravy, don't you
use broth? I don't know now you're adding a
whole new food group in here, but it's like we're let's just
stick with soup. What defines soup?
I would just think it would be like stuff is, is the soup
different than a Stew? It's is that what you're?
Saying well, a Stew doesn't isn't a Stew.
When you take milk and soup and combine the two, you get a Stew.
Rest in peace. I don't know, man.
I don't know. But look, people are fired up.
We got a lot of controversy with this, this cereal soup.
Wow. Someone said, I think Becky said
I stopped eating. It's bad for you.
That's funny. That is funny over here.
Oh my God. All right, that's all right.
That's that's fun. That was a fun one.
That's a fun one to get it going.
All right dude, so where are we at with splintered spirits?
We dropped episode 9 this week, which is a fun one.
We told some really fun ghost stories.
Yep, we had a pop up live yesterday.
Yeah, we had a fun pop up live yesterday and we're really sort
of getting to that question of, you know, we're still examining
the spirit world, you know, in a big way and like, what are
spirits, right? And what is John in relation to
spirits and how does he make it work in that, in that, in that
vein of what spirits are? You know, we get, we ask you
offer ghost submissions. We love it.
Thank you for doing that. But I want to talk about a theme
that we got this week. But before I get into that,
Johnny, I want to talk to the audience for real here for a
second. And as you submit these things
to us. And if if English is a second
language, then this does not apply to you.
Thank you. It's great.
But when you type something and submit it, I'm going to ask you,
all of you in the audience, I'm not going to give you a lecture
cause some of you really hate punctuation or periods or commas
or grammar in general. Read it out loud.
Read it out loud to yourself and before you hit submit, because
if you're reading what I'm reading, I'm very afraid of the
state of education in America. It's really hard.
It's real hard to read. I, I mean, look, I'm sorry, I
say this with peace and love, guys.
Like we get a lot of submissions and it's like, I can't even read
them here today, John, because it's like I would, I would
sound, I think I would sound really stupid and I would make
the audience Dumber by reading them out.
Like, like we wouldn't be able to understand.
We wouldn't understand it. So it's like, listen, all I'm
asking, I'm not asking you to take an English class or go back
to school. No.
Sorry, it's not even and Robin, it's not even spell check.
This is like stream of conscious.
Just read it out loud. Read it out loud.
And if you can do that, which I'm willing to bet they can't,
once they read it out loud, they'll be like, oh what did I
just write? Then fix it.
Then hit. Because you know what it is?
You know what it is, it's actually has nothing to do with
education. It has to do with the fact they
get in the zone and they're literally dictating their yeah,
that's what it is. There's lost all sense of like
sort of structured, how to write a letter and structured.
Yeah. So anyway.
Because they're getting excited and they're telling the story,
and I don't think it's an education or grammar or anything
like that. I really think they just get in
the zone and they're literally putting their thoughts on paper.
But when you do that, you do have to read it out loud.
You know you. Got to read it out loud.
Best course of action for anything that you type and
write. Read it out loud.
So excuse me, the thing that I want, the thing that I want to
talk about, then I got a couple of them are dreams.
People have been submitting dreams as like and then seeing
something after the dream or related to the dream or
something that reminds them of the dream as like a ghost story.
John, what is your philosophy on dreams and how this could
potentially relate? To what?
People see in the in ghosts. I hope you guys on TikTok can
hear John. I have to speak the mic up by
the speaker but if not go to YouTube you'll see the whole
thing. Sorry, go ahead.
I love dreams, I love dreams I don't myself.
I don't dream I have too much cannabis floating in my system
and stops dreaming from happening.
OK, but but sad. That that electronic voice for
those who are new or don't know, that is the spirit called Edward
in this haunted basement Go. Ahead and I have AI have a a
firm belief that when you know as you know the theory Bah Bah
Bah Bah Bah we die our energy scatters.
I do believe that some of that energy gravitates towards DNA or
people with very strong feelings, OK, towards one
another, OK? I really do.
And I believe that that energy when it's in US, whether it's
ancestral, whether you know, somebody close you died and you
got some of their energy. I do believe that when you're
sleeping, it's one of the easiest ways for it to come
through. So when people say, oh, I was
visited by a loved one in my dream, I correct him and say,
no, I don't. I don't think you were visited.
I think that person never left you and this is the easiest time
for them to communicate with you right now.
Closer. While he's while they're asleep.
While they're asleep. So you you would say then just
help me understand what you're saying.
So it's like, are you saying a dream is not really a dream?
It's. No, not all the time.
Not all the time. Sometimes you can just be as
simple as a dream, you know? I just think that sometimes that
energy that's in US translates in our dreams better than it
does when we're awake. My baby.
Oh my baby, let's see, Let's see if I can try to decipher one of
these to see what this dream was.
I love dream stories. All right, I'll try to read
this. This comes from, oh, we know
this name, Mona MI. OK, I don't know if she wants me
to read a real name but it's from Mona MI who you probably
see. Yep, Yep.
Yep, I recognize that name. So it's like, let's see, nothing
really crazy. I'm sorry.
She had her husband was playing with the spirit board when he
was just out of the Army. Nothing really crazy happened
with the spirit board that night while they were actually doing
it. But when he went to sleep, he
had the most wildest vivid dreams.
He was run period. He was running period.
He said it was almost like a Beetlejuice episode where they
were in the desert and all those weird strange demon looking
animals were chasing him and the curl across the street.
And he remembers waking up the next day and going outside and
the girl had lived three houses down was standing on her porch
and started screaming at him. What did you do to me last night
She had the exact same dream that he had.
He also said for the next few days there was just weird were
just weird just didn't seem right.
But there was a phone but the phone was ringing.
He answered it and it was a sister and it was sister and
he's I don't know which I I don't even know what this means.
You called me anyway. So OK, I think The thing is here
he was playing with a spirit board.
If I'm reading, if I make, if I'm deciphering this, then he
had he had a crazy weird dream night and then like shit got
weird for him for a few days. So this is almost like what?
Like maybe he opens some door because you always say that
spirit board is intent. Yes, it's intent so.
Tell people what intent means that those is anybody who might
be now. I was having trouble following
the story, but I got the gist. Dude, I'm reading it, I'm having
trouble following it. Yeah, I can tell you this.
I can tell you this. It's pretty crazy if with the
neighbor having the same dream and the strange occurrences
afterward, if that wasn't part of the dream, then that's wild.
That means that whatever he did, he opened up a channel to
something, you know, strong if it was able to affect the
neighbor. Like that's what I'm, I'm
wondering like was that in the dream the neighbor being
affected or was the did the neighbor actually have the same
dream? Because that's pretty wild.
It's hard to make out to because there's no, there's no periods
in the entire 50 line. There's like 3 periods in the
whole thing. It's very hard to decipher Moe
to me, we love you, but you know, it's like you got to read
it out loud then sit. But words are.
Dangerous. Yeah, OK.
I mean, it's very, very. Dangerous.
It's a tool, you know, all tools are dangerous.
Let's. See if I got another dream in
here that's easier to vacuum. That's not really not a lot of
evidence. No, it's more OK my then
toddler's son. This is from is.
This yours? Oh, this is from here.
This another name I recognize? Typo.
Mama Lisa. It's from Mama.
Lisa. OK, good.
My then toddler son and I laid on the couch to take a nap while
his dad laid on the floor. We were having heavy snow that
day. I dreamt I was younger and in an
older house. At a party, sitting on the couch
facing an arched entry party. Sitting on a couch facing an
arched entryway. That's an incomplete sentence,
guys. When you read it, it's very hard
to figure out what you're saying.
To the left a staircase and to the right a front door, neither
of which you can see from the couch.
We all hear the door open and in walks my deceased grandpa.
He didn't speak. He had his hands in his pockets
of his pea coat. He grinned at me and turned and
left. By the time I walked to the door
he was nowhere. Insight.
It was enough to wake me out of the dream and the house was
cold. Cold.
I automatically thought ah it's cold because it was my grandpa
and maybe he was there. My son and his dad were still
sat asleep. I tried to fall back to sleep
but realized the house was truly cold, but not because of the
spirit. I went to investigate and the
mud room door was open with enough drifted snow to have put
out the pilot light. They're here.
We still like to believe to this day that my grandpa made me go
to the door in my dream to make me go to the door so we didn't
get hurt from the gas. So that's.
All right, so that one is a little bit easier to decipher.
So she's saying she dreamt of her grandfather by the door in
order, but that's so she could get up to then see a potential
problem. Yeah, So what?
I don't know if. That's a that feels like a
chicken and the egg kind of situation where it's like
probably your body's cold when she needs to get up because it
was cold, but what's cool? About that, what's cool about
that whole dream is the fact that her grandfather interrupted
the dream she was having. She was having a dream that she
was at, you know, her, you know, at some Random House at a party
when she was younger, You know, that's what she was dreaming
about. And then all the sudden, her
grandfather comes walking through the door, you know,
completely turn that dream upside down, which is wild.
Yeah. That's what it seemed like to
me. And then, you know, all the
sudden the whole thing with the pilot light, I mean, that's
pretty wild, yeah. It's all right.
I mean, so do you think, do you think that that could really be
spirit connection or OK, I do. I do.
I think that could be a spirit connection.
I mean, listen, it could be as simple as she's cold, she wakes
up, the outside interference of the her environment is affecting
her dream state. That happens.
We've all had dreams,
especially, you know, when we were younger or someone's
calling you in your dream, but in reality, they're trying to
wake you up, you know, like that's a thing that does happen.
So the cold can do it too. However, however, if it was the
cold that did it, right? Right.
Wouldn't the house party be cold?
Wouldn't the door have blown open by itself and let some cold
air in? You know why Was it her
grandfather? It's crazy.
All right, good one. Thank you for that.
Thank you for submitting. Anybody wondering, Cass, you're
wondering where to submit things. splendidspirits.com is
where you can go. We have a tab that says ghost
stories. You could put in anything there
you can put in questions. You know, just ghost stories is
easy to write and clear, right? That's where you can submit your
name. If you have evidence of a ghost
story, even better. For us, that's like, wonderful.
We'd show it. We'd talk about it.
Everybody could see it. This is a visual medium, after
all. We'd love to see it, but you can
ask us questions. You can ask us advice, ghost
stories, dreams. We want to hear anything you
think might be weird that's sort of the OR unexplained rather.
That's what we're into. That's what we want to know,
right? That's kind of cool.
You know what it's. I don't really.
Have any books on dreams? I mean, I think that maybe
that's something we should explore in terms of like a weird
thing. Not to get too Freudian about
the whole thing, but there might be a weird dream.
Interpretation is it's one of those things where, you know, it
could go either way. It's a dream.
Where are we? You know, in the basement, it's
yeah. It's an interesting topic.
Dreams have always been interesting.
Yeah, it's. Crazy, especially.
Ones that the dead are involved in.
I never talked to, you know, I never asked Kathy about dreams.
You know, she interprets things, you know, she gets.
Kathy, for those who don't know, was our psychic Medium friend
and guest of the show. We've had her on a bunch of
times where are. We what she.
Does that I love isn't dreams, but she actually, did you know
that she reads coffee, did you know that?
Yeah, like tea leaves, but like. Coffee.
So she has to drink coffee and then she does a reading based on
it, which I mean, that's just like for me, I it's like the
best and she wrote a book on it. I mean, let me grab all of our
all of our all of our favorite guests have books.
Guys, if you don't see it, this is hers.
If you can read it, seeing, seeing more than clouds in your
coffee is one of her books. And if you, you know, Kathy was
great. And if you go to my link tree or
go to my bio anywhere, we have links to all the books of all of
our guests. You know hers, you know Lloyd's
book who taught me how to give me the crash course in ghost
hunting. All these books that we have
links to. For our guests, I can't hear
you. Well, I'll speak up.
Do I have to get louder? Who can?
No, you don't have to. Get louder can.
She hear me or she just playing with me.
Our next guest that we are going to record in a couple of weeks.
Guys, you should read his book before we that one.
We don't have an air date for it yet.
We haven't even recorded yet, but we have a real great guest
coming out and his name is Doctor Cal Cooper and he wrote a
book called Telephone Calls from the Dead.
And Cal has done extensive research on people who receive
phone calls and how tech really is used in sort of paranormal
investigation. I have a link to his book as
well in my link tree and in my bio.
Check it out, get it He's it's going to be a great one.
Can you hear it? We're going to.
Have him on for a new for a number of reasons, you know, to
talk about. Look, we all know John here uses
phones quite a bit to talk to spirits, but and they talk back,
but sometimes they call back and that's crazy.
And it happens. It happened right when I was
live and we're going to. Talk about we're going to deep
dive into that in a really big way.
It's probably going to be it's going to be a great 1.
So you know, we'll keep you posted when that's going to air.
But you know, if you want to never, if you want to make sure
you don't miss it, like follow, subscribe to Splinter spirits
wherever you get your podcasts, go to Spotify, go all these
places, login and do it. But it's going to be a really,
it's going to be a really strong one.
What else can we tell the good people here today, John?
What do we got? What's on your mind?
We could definitely dive right back into that subject, you
know, and give everybody a precursor to this episode that's
going to be that we're going to be taping soon.
You know, I was live at in Indiana at the Randolph County
Infirmary and I'm sitting at the table and one of my mods was
with me. Brian and I had a couple of the
mods too. Had Mama Lisa there, her husband
Rich. I had MYXI had there was a
couple of us and I believe there was also some other people that
were there as well just floating around in the back.
By the way, it. All sounds like a hip hop group
because of all of their handles. You know, it's like, yeah, I was
with Mama Lisa and Brian the Mod and NXT or whatever you just
said. It's like all your fucking name.
It's like, it's just like what is going on?
It's a young Satan. Posse Yeah, sure.
So all of a sudden now I I know this has been going on for a
while. He's been having these
experiences where his mother passed away and she keeps
calling him and she leaves him messages.
OK, I'm not going to get into details about the messages, what
they say. None of that.
We're going to save all that for the episode giving you guys the
precursor. I witnessed this.
I witnessed this like that. This wasn't this.
Was this happened to me on live? Yeah.
Oh yeah, guys, we have the video, we have the video, you
know? And it was just wild and, you
know, the look on his face, but the poor guy must have been
every time he gets a phone call, what that poor guy's going
through. You know, this isn't like she
died 10 years ago. Even though the pain never goes
away, it does. You know, you learn coping
mechanisms to deal with it as time goes on.
This is fresh. This fresh.
She recently just passed away and this is happening and I, I
shit you not, wait until you hear how the both of us describe
what she sounds like. That's all I am going to say
ladies and. Gentlemen, we have the voice
message she left. We have it and we're going to,
we're going to play it. We're going to share it with you
all. Not.
Tonight, by the way, John, I've got an, I've got an awesome
troll on YouTube right now. He's yeah, I'm leaving him
there. I was going to block him, but
I'm just going to keep him there.
He's just a Dick. And it's kind of funny and it's
just like, you know, it's just like, just let him go.
Stop. I've been, It's great.
He's saying some funny. He's kind of, yeah.
He's saying some funny stuff that makes me laugh inside, but
it's OK. I like it because it's it's
getting other people riled up. It's great.
So there. Is are you talking out?
Are you talking about the the Johnson dude?
Yeah. Yeah, so what's?
Interesting. What's he saying?
He's saying that that, you know, spirits don't exist.
This, that and the other. Yeah.
Yeah, yeah. And yet he sits here and watches
this. As he sits here and watches
this, I know, I know, you know, I love it.
It's funny too, because he doesn't realize that the two
guys that are on right now are skeptics.
Yeah, man, we're skeptics. We analyze everything to the
point where, you know, we're not convinced most of the time.
Hell, in my live streams when something pops off, I end up
arguing with my chat on whether it's paranormal or not.
Me saying now I don't think it is.
I think it's that, you know. Oh yeah, let me be.
Clear, I am no ghost hunter. The last thing I'm going to do
is go looking for ghosts. No, thank you.
I'm not alleged for it. That's like, oh, is that a
haunted house? Let me walk inside.
No, no, I'm going to go over there like I I'm built for
comfort. You know what I'm saying?
It's like I'm not going into that shit hole.
It's like I'm going to go where there's no go, Sir.
Listen, that's what we say. 90% of what happens paranormal on a
paranormal anything is bullshit. It's it's, it's not paranormal.
It's there's common reasons why things are happening.
You know, I. Mean more than. 5 Spirit, no the
fun. Of this, the fun of this is as a
reminder to everybody, right? It's, you know, this guy can
call it delusion or all this stuff.
And then it's like, no one's delusional.
But there is. Look how these apps work.
We know how they work. We're not idiots.
The question is, why does it work this way for John all the
time? And people try to copy them with
the same apps, but they don't do it.
They don't get the results he gets.
So I don't know what it is. And there's numerous people who
are also not delusional who study this.
And by the way, everything was delusional at some point until
somebody figured out what it was.
Listen, I mean, right, Let's just be real, like when we get
really long about it. So you look, hey.
Listen, you guys know who Gallo Gallo is, right?
I mean, but what happened to that guy?
Yeah. I mean, you know.
We don't know what's going on, but it's just sort of fun.
Unrelated to the no, I don't know.
So it's like, look, you know, for for us.
Oh, I just got I got some weird, sorry, I got some weird warning
on TikTok about my live is unrelated to the products I'm
doing, but this is splintered spirits and I'm selling
splintered spirits stuff and Santa paranormal stuff.
If you click on links you can buy AT shirt.
That's what we're talking about here, guys.
It's TikTok. Straight up.
Listen. We can talk about that for a
minute. TikTok is horribly fucking up.
I think it's. You know, there it seems like
they're really trying to promote and that's look, if that's what
your business model is going to be, you guys, you want to be a
Home Shopping Network or a battle network, that's fine.
We'll keep going, but and and we'll just conduct.
You're going to see what we see there.
But we're having some fun here, having a weird conversation
about ghosts and shit, so I want.
To I want to, I want to feed the troll for a minute real quick.
You're going. To feed.
Him from. Under the bridge.
Yeah, yeah, yeah. From under the bridge.
I'll drop it through the cracks. Johnson, this is this is a
podcast called Splinter Spirits. The only reason why I have a
spirit box on right now is so we can laugh at the stupid shit
Edward says. Because at this point, Edward's
a clown, OK? No one's investigating anything.
Nobody is doing anything. We are here talking about
spirits, talking about people's personal experiences, talking
about our experiences, talking about theories, talking about
all sorts of things, you know? But what's my name?
There's you can't. There's no scientific method
here to compare. No, but hold on a second that
that's actually not true. You want to talk about well for
this? Episode.
I mean no, no, not. For this episode, but right.
But he's talking, you know, he says things like, you can't
compare any of this to the scrutiny of the scientific
method. And I don't, you know, look,
dude, we run tests all the time, but we do it in a sort of a fun
way, you know what I mean? It's like, we're not scientists.
We don't have yeah, but we don't have grants.
But there's certainly ways to do to test these theories.
And we've we, we do them in our own way.
We're having fun with them. If you want to be a super nerd
about it and be like, you know, want us in lab coats or
something and you think that's what science is, you know, more
power to you. Just man, keep listening.
Keep. Chatting Johnson.
If that was true, my friend, you say there shouldn't be.
If that was true, the world would never advance.
There'd be no scientific breakthroughs, no technology
breakthroughs, nothing. Yeah, I mean.
That should be That's just anyway.
All right, we've given him enough oxygen.
Let's let him keep trolling. I think it's fun, but he's, you
know, I like having a troll in there.
Gets everybody riled up yeah, I told you right.
I don't want to block the trolls I want to see at the end of the
day what what rolls out and how that changes things what else
what else can we we talk to the good people about Wow, that time
flew today I know time flew by thank you all on TikTok.
Sorry, I mean dedicating enough attention to you guys, but I
told you go to YouTube if you want to see the full thing and
see John and see who goes. But what else, man?
What's what? What do you got lined up well?
I can get I can guarantee that most of the people on TikTok are
here on YouTube as well. Probably.
That's probably. Double it up.
Like, wow, they're double it up. That's dedication, guys.
Dedication. Double it.
Up, yeah. What's on What's on deck?
What's what's what's what's? Pretty interesting.
What's pretty? Interesting about all this, you
know, and especially like the men and women that dedicate, you
know, like actual scientists and actual doctors that, you know,
run all the tests that no matter what evidence they produce, no
matter what, and this is for everything.
There are people that believe vaccines don't work OK no matter
what scientific evidence. Is.
Produced you will always have people no matter what that don't
believe always it doesn't matter what it doesn't matter it does
not matter their personal opinions and their faith and
everything else will always come in between what is facts what is
reality and what is you know what is real and in your face so
and the things that we can't see that we discover you know so
because there's a lot we can see we can't well.
What do? You mean stop it?
That's not a cop out. Well, look.
Nobody knows what happens after we die.
I mean, that's sort of the fun of it.
We believe, I personally believe nothing happens.
I think you're as dead as Dillinger and it's just nothing.
And then, you know, but John's theory and part of the thing
that I'm sort of seeing when there's because there's
something going on is the energy that's in your body is dispersed
and that energy contains or might hold on to some memories
in your mind because nobody, nobody knows how the mind works.
And that's kind of what we're hearing.
That energy is legit and that energy has to go somewhere.
It's as good as areas any. And that's the thing.
Oh, and. We're going to.
Be thinking about the Nexus did wait.
Did he say Vengeance will be mine or Nexus will be mine all
right? Said Nexus will be mine.
OK. And that's and that's that's the
crazy thing too. You know it, It's we aren't
there's you could go. I listen.
If I didn't believe, if I didn't have this theory about our
memories, OK, If I didn't, if I didn't have these theories about
our memories, I would believe that nothing happens as well.
Then that is it. It shuts down, but there's no
way that an entity and I by entity I mean human that can
lust, love, create, destroy. The fact that the atoms and and
atoms and molecules into chemicals into our brain for
things to be built and created is insane.
It's a miracle in itself and not a miracle from God or anything.
Just the fact that the fields affecting fields affecting
fields have even developed something like this that allows
us to do what we do as humans. As vile and beautiful as it can
be, it's wild. And then and then to say that it
all disappears like this no matter what, and that's it just
doesn't make sense to me. But the problem is the idea of a
God doesn't make sense to me either.
So if there's no faith, there's no religion.
It's weird. What can it be?
Well, yeah, maybe it's as simple as our memories.
You know I'm. I'm look, it's as good a theory
as any. I haven't heard anybody say
anything different than, you know, who's to say it's not?
I think that's part of the fun of it, right?
And that's what we're trying to do.
So what do we got? We've got look, I mean, I know
you got a all right, we got a couple minutes here left.
I like this. I like this time slot.
I hope this time slot works for you.
I like the fast and furious. No new episode next week, guys.
Go get caught up, Get caught up on one through 9 because episode
10 is funny and different. That's where we go on the that's
where we go on the attack. We bring a magnet in there.
It's so stupid, but it's pretty funny.
It's fun. It's pretty fun.
It really is. It's fun, but you know.
But again, that goes towards one of the things that we talked
about with Lloyd in the past, if you listen to episode 4, is this
idea if it's magnetic waves or magnetic energy, could a magnet
or a degausser, you know, hinder spirit activity?
I got, I got, I got one more question for for Brandon.
Oh, you're in. It you're in it, you're in it on
the troll. Let's go.
Brandon, how do? I use it.
Are you? Here for me or are you here for
him? Just real quick, real quick,
what makes you want to be here if you don't believe in spirits?
Or is it the both of us? Because, you know, we might have
to start our individual only fans, only feet.
Only. Speed your feet.
Shots with ghosts. Ghosts, you know.
Oh, wait. Now.
All right, now. Now I look.
Oh, the grief. See.
Oh, shit.
That's good. That's I.
See. That makes me happy.
That means we're doing something
here. You know, That means you're
doing something here. All right, Wait.
Yeah, I. Like all the I like all the
little controversy. It's kind of crazy.
Yeah, Yeah, Gary is sexy. Gary is sexy, dude.
It's the eyes. That's what does it.
It's. The eyes, yeah, well, that that
and you look like you could be like, you know, if you really
look at you, you look like you could be some like battle
hardened elf. You know exactly.
The spirit just said exactly. You know what I'm saying?
You honestly look like if you fuck with you, you're going to
pull a bow out of nowhere. Magical.
Arrow. Oh my God.
You know, the magical arrow of love.
Oh my God, that's. Funny man, have you been
watching? Did you get a chance to watch
The Last of Us yet? No.
And this? Oh dude, no.
I didn't get to watch it. Listen, I know what happens.
Well, don't. Spoil it for everybody episode.
Episode 2 might be one of the best hours of TV and we're going
to nerd it out for about two seconds as we close and Andor
Season 2 just started. I don't know if you watched
season 1, which is the best Star Wars thing ever made.
Episode 1 of season 2 is brilliant too.
It is just, it's unlike anything.
It it the only reason. It's just if it didn't say Star
Wars on it, then people would love it more, you know what I'm
saying? But it's just an immediate, but
it is on. It's the guy, Tony Gilroy, he's
just such a genius, Michael Clayton and shows that are not
Star Wars Z. And he's the one who saved Rogue
One. I mean, it's just brilliant,
dude. Anyway, yeah, yeah, Rogue One,
you got it. You got to find.
You got to find time. Episode 2 of Episode.
Two of Last of Us is like one hour of excellent television.
Super fun. Listen, John, I don't know what
else we got for these good people other than catch up, tune

We hope you. We want your stories.
We want your advice. We want to make it better.
We want. To look at.
Spirits in a way that nobody else does and have some fun with
it because it is it's a pretty good time, right?
I mean, it's like, what's more fun than this to make?
To try to make stuff and try to figure stuff out?
So that's funny. That's funny.
Brandon, he's got a ghost boner. That's good.
That's the best line you had all day.
You know, it's like. We'll give him a wait for one of
the spirits to say Aroused, we'll give.
Him give him a little air time, but it's there you go.
That's that's a great way to end it.
