Cristina: This program contains strong themes meant for a mature audience. Discretion is advised.

Jack: Going live in 5, 4.

Cristina: What does live mean?

Jack: Welcome to the Rambling Podcast. I'm your host, Jack.

Cristina: And I am your host, Christina.

Jack: And this is the show where we discuss humanity's most absurd and baffling ideas. And, like, we've been talking a lot for years at this point, literally.

Cristina: Has that been years?

Jack: It's literally years. It's literally been years. At this point, it's been like two years. Okay, yeah, about the same s***.

Cristina: But I thought we escaped it. We. I haven't escaped it.

Jack: I thought we escaped it, too. I thought we escaped it, too. I thought we escaped it, too. But the lingering question was, right, we solved the bunch, figured out a lot. But there was this question about Yahweh in specific, right? Like, we still don't know a lot about him. And there was a situation about the Tower of Babel that I wanted to talk about before, if you remember. And so the basic premise of that discussion, I'm gonna rush through it because it's useless. I just need you to understand the premise, right? The idea was the Tower of Babel, that Yahweh specifically had a. These desolation guy, and there's a bunch of people who are building a tower to reach him. This metaphor of a tower must have been literally trying to get this amounted or something, presumably.

Cristina: Okay, right.

Jack: And in the text, it says that he switched their language so they couldn't communicate and work together to continue to build it. That was his solution to the problem. But really, when you look at the depictions, the images that were used in description with those in sync with that time, those kind of look like satellites. So it's more like he was destroying their communication and towers and s***. Right?

Cristina: Do you have pictures of this?

Jack: What are you talking about? It was just, like, images and drawings and then descriptions of them and just a bunch of random bits and pieces. But that's not even what matters because. And we've seen this a thousand times in a million different places. It's interesting, but it's actually not the important thing, because the important thing comes down to what's happening right now. Because it's happening right now with simply following Yahweh. Because following Yahweh, one thing came to mind. Whose God is Yahweh? And he's the God of the Jews. Okay, right, The God of the Jews. So I'm like, okay, coincidence, right? Because the Jews and the Israelis aren't necessarily the same thing.

Cristina: Okay, so you're Going back to what we were talking about last episode kind of sort.

Jack: Right. So the Jews and the Israeli aren't necessarily the same thing. Israel is a new concept. Jews are not. Those are two different concepts. Who we identify as Jews now might not be the state of Israel, might be what we discussed. Right. But Jews, their God was Yahweh. Now current day Jews have a more abstract, ambiguous, kind of less directly spoken of God, but it's almost assumed it's Yahweh, but it's kind of like pretty removed a lot of the time. And Yahweh isn't really the God that is addressed even within the Jewish community. Well, Jehovah. Oh, that's a weird little alteration. Right.

Cristina: When did that happen?

Jack: Well, that happened kind of in modern time, generally speaking, all of Israel kind of always not Jews, but the state of Israel itself. Them, they've always been sort of Jehovah kind of people. Not a New Testament kind of people. They still follow Old Testament. It's still Jewish. But he just kind of say Jehovah.

Cristina: Okay.

Jack: And that's cool and fine, but old Jews used to say Yahweh. Weird, tiny discrepancy. I'm just pointing that out, you know.

Cristina: But it changes in the first book. The Old Testament?

Jack: Yeah. Oh, the original swap, it was used kind of interchangeably in the first one. In the first one. But the Jews of that time used Yahweh. They used Yahweh. The people of that time used Yahweh. Even if both exist.

Cristina: And the Old.

Jack: Yes, they would. They would defer to Yahweh first.

Cristina: Okay, and what was the other name?

Jack: The other name is Jehovah.

Cristina: Okay, Right.

Jack: So there was still a distinction. They felt one was superior to the other.

Cristina: Even though it's the same person.

Jack: No one's the father and the other is the son. Wait, Yahweh is Jehovah's father?

Cristina: Okay. No, I mean in the book, though. It's not really. It's the same person in the book.

Jack: Well, let me trip you out. The Jews already knew this and have kind of a tree in some form where they've kind of linguistically divided it. They already believe Yahweh is above Jehovah. They don't say one is. They're even related. But conceptually they've actually divided and created a distinction between that within how they explain their religion to people and how they preach it. There's a clear distinction between those two entities.

Cristina: Are you sure?

Jack: Yes. And people have related their sort of explanation of it. To father and son.

Cristina: But those people don't believe there's a father and a son.

Jack: No, they don't. They, the Jews themselves don't use that terminology. That's people trying to relate it to. Like, this is the best way I can explain the same idea.

Cristina: That's strange. Okay.

Jack: Juicer way thought out. They're above everybody. They're essentially following not even of religion as much as what seems to be a literal map of what kind of reality exists upon. They don't believe in a heaven per se. They believe there's a possible maybe something.

Cristina: Possibly something which sounds like.

Jack: Well, it depends on what you do. And what does that sound like? Well, are you going to just dissipate in peace or go to some kind of hellish place which isn't literally h***, it's some kind of other place like. That sounds like their belief. It's just some maybe something.

Cristina: Yeah.

Jack: And okay, that lines up. And they're not like, well, we can't really comprehend God.

Cristina: He's just another thing they worship. You're saying people. Yes, but those people are from the sea people. They're worshiping sea people at the end of the day, like did the ancient ones. Were they actually worshipping sea people?

Jack: Worship is our interpretation of it. Keep in mind, when we're referring to gods, the word God ultimately devolves down to the original root of person of intellect, person of authority, elite person of power. It's just with time and losing things and pieces here and there, you don't. People don't see the whole picture, which was our job.

Cristina: Okay. But in the last episode, we decided those were actually shadow people.

Jack: It seems to be that. Yes. That the state of Israel is shadow people. Yes.

Cristina: Well, does that make sense, though?

Jack: It makes sense when they are described specifically as the ones from the other side by everybody else.

Cristina: But once upon a time they had communication with the sea people.

Jack: Yes.

Cristina: And they were worshiping them.

Jack: No, they're not worshiping the sea people. Where are you getting the worship?

Cristina: Well, they felt some kind of way towards them, that they were above them.

Jack: Yes, they definitely. It's possible that because of the technology. Keep in mind that these are the oppressors.

Cristina: But they still.

Jack: We look at it like they're describing gods. We never said their gods are good to them. In fact, all of these people think these gods are monstrous and will hurt you. The word God does not mean benevolent in any instance, we've used it. And also, we don't even mean God when we use it. Okay, but every time we've used God. All those people think, oh, he's wrathful and gonna murder you. So none of them are like, we worship this guy. They're more like, we're gonna follow his orders. Cuz f*** that.

Cristina: Okay?

Jack: You get my point. There's no worship in this old school. People weren't dumb like that. They weren't like, we got a war. They don't believe this s***. People nowadays do. People nowadays are idiots. They're like, no, there was a literal deity or something. These people were like, no. Those people basically own all this s*** that says I can't do anything about it. So I'm just gonna do whatever they want me to do because they don't need me. And it's really easy to get rid of me, so I'll be as useful as possible.

Cristina: But then something happened and that changed.

Jack: The Great War. The unification is what I'm calling it. The great Unification that happened at some point between, just by chance, between the year 6 BC and 4 AD which weirdly enough happens to coincide with the migration of the random group of people. We can tell because of the genetic marker of the J1 that comes from the neck of the Persian Gulf oasis, leaving around 6 BC to sometime around 4 AD and breaking up into three groups that scatter north, west and southwest, landing in Gaza. See, and at the same time, all mention of Elysians ceases. Everywhere the sudden beginning mentions of Israel first happen and we get the invention of the first ever, consistently always foreign own slave state. Now this is incredibly important because of what's happening in this slave state. This slave state is a very interesting location. Again, just following the train of thought of Yahweh, I come to the Jews and then the Jews just happen to be related to the Israelis because, you know, logistically in the same location.

Cristina: Okay.

Jack: So I then start looking at the Jews because I'm not really paying attention to the Israelis. Really. We just quickly address the fact that they might just be shadow people who joined the group of people who were against the Elysians to begin with.

Cristina: Yes.

Jack: Which checks out. It makes sense as a strategic approach in life. You know, join the people who aren't the. Who are the good people in your eyes as compared to who are the bad people in everybody's eyes. You know, it's a great war, everybody's friends. Yeah, it makes sense. And so the Jews, notorious for definitely not being on the Elysian side, okay, you know, is who these Rayleigh state, AKA a bunch of shadow people who then turn themselves into just normal day humans. It coexists. It makes perfect sense. Right?

Cristina: Right.

Jack: But we have this state. And I think about what we were talking about last time, Right. We're talking about the migration pattern and how it broke up into these three different things. But a question came to me after the episode, which unpacking, the question got really, really, really dark, really, really quickly. Ran. I asked, but how do we know there's migration patterns if we killed them off? And that's the ones that are left, minus the ones that got away elsewhere. Right. Well, what's the migration pattern? It's DNA traces over time. So it took them time, they migrated at normal people speeds. They were trying to blend in. Right.

Cristina: Okay.

Jack: But we can trace their DNA with current day science. We couldn't then. They had that science, but they knew we didn't.

Cristina: Yeah.

Jack: So they blended in the people and made their way out. Hence the slow migration. They impregnated women throughout the time. Some blended in, whatever. They diluted themselves and disappeared into the populations. We can trace where the purity kept going as the line kept moving. So why didn't we eradicate those people? Right. We can trace the same J1 marker.

Cristina: Mm. You're saying those people as in the other two locations?

Jack: Yeah, the other two paths of the J1. A variation of DNA that we don't. We haven't killed those people that have it. But we know we don't follow the migration line. We just know that there is the Gaza line, the Gaza spot and where it began. And we got those other two lines. The two lines. We don't eradicate any of that. And the line in Gaza going to Gaza. No. But we have Gaza trapped. What's the difference from Gaza and those lines? And I had a theory about this. And then when I thought about this theory, I didn't looked into it, into how things work in it. Well, I didn't look into how things work. I looked into my theory and it told me how things work. I'll explain.

Cristina: You looked into your own theory?

Jack: Yes, I looked into my own theory. I looked at aspects of my theory.

Cristina: Okay.

Jack: Did some research.

Cristina: Mm.

Jack: And found weirder things about how things work.

Cristina: All right, and what was your theory?

Jack: So current day Israel is holding hostage current day Gaza.

Cristina: Mm.

Jack: We all know this. There's a blockade. Everybody else is kind of like let it happen, but what's really happening. Right. So currently Israel has currently Gaza just nice and boxed in. And I was looking at patterns. What often does this and for what purposes? Might somebody else.

Cristina: Trap another country or.

Jack: Something like not necessarily Country. I'm trying to remove myself from any idea that might connect back to war. I try to always remove myself to get different perspective. So what paths can lead to it, to a similar look? Well, scientists, oftentimes that's an initial. Once I saw scientists, I was like, let me click that f****** thing right there, bruh. Scientists tend to isolate a specific genetic variant in order to preserve just its evolutionary concentration. Right. What does this mean? We can have a pure version of something that's less influenced by the external world.

Cristina: Okay.

Jack: Fact, we can trace the genetic markers because of the migration line. Fact, there are two genetic variants, the lines themselves and the B1. B that came from the J1, that exists only in Gaza, which is sort of refined alternative. Just purified there by itself. Not purified, but it's more pure than the rest of us. Just a more concentrated version of the J1. Interesting. Why do scientists do this? Well, they do that to research these specific things. Okay. Yeah. When you have like a creature in isolation, you have less influence from the external world. This is great for genetics and things when you're studying biology and stuff, not when you're studying natural responses and psychology and behaviors. Because isolation is bad.

Cristina: Yeah.

Jack: But you can create sort of a fake habitat and have them enclose within that fake habitat, which isn't really fake habitat. It's natural environment usually just protected from anybody going in or out. Then in that controlled environment, they're sort of less exposed to the outside world, but you still have access to the creature sort of living in its natural environment, staying as natural as possible. And this is usually how we preserve things from going extinct. What does preserving something from going extinct mean? The bird, the animal, the dog, the cat, whatever, isn't going to mate with some other things. It's going to mate with its own kind because it's trapped inside these walls with its own kind and it can multiply into more pure versions of itself.

Cristina: We do that with animals.

Jack: We do that with animals all the time. That's what natural preserves, enclosures are. Animals can keep reproducing among themselves and not diluting themselves. And that's sort of what's happening genetically inside of Gaza. We can tell that the people there have a specific, more concentrated version of a very specific genetic marker. They happen to have started at Persian Gulf Oasis.

Cristina: You think that's important to why they're being trapped in the first place?

Jack: Yes, because now I have to talk numbers again. This was just what, what might look like this in the world. And it led to scientists this Led me to the next point, which is essentially just a numbers question. Right. Once I start discussing the numbers, you're gonna get a lot of where I'm going with this.

Cristina: Okay.

Jack: Right. All right. 7 million humans is one instance. 50 million Neanderthals is another instance. And about a hundred to a thousand alfamers is another instant. These are different variations, different quantities that it took to create different stones.

Cristina: Okay. Oh, duh. Oh, duh. Okay.

Jack: Yeah. So 7 million humans. It's the most recent stone we can, like, track. That was pretty big.

Cristina: How many people are there?

Jack: It's getting to the hundreds of thousands.

Cristina: That feels like not enough.

Jack: Well, let's talk about these numbers again.

Cristina: Okay.

Jack: It was the most primitive stone we can think of before the concept of our time existing.

Cristina: Okay.

Jack: Before, the concept of our time existing was a thousand. Roughly a thousand. The most could have been a thousand based on what's left in disgust. Elfamers. About a thousand. Very small number. Very primitive. S***** stone.

Cristina: Yes.

Jack: Very low number. Really good stone. It couldn't make a universe.

Cristina: Yeah.

Jack: Ooh, Kind of interesting.

Cristina: Mm.

Jack: 50 million Neanderthals. Whack DNA takes a lot. Stone was so s*****, it took another try.

Cristina: Yeah, okay.

Jack: S***. You know, too whack of DNA. It's.

Cristina: But this is not whack DNA.

Jack: We're going back up, right? Because the most recent human stones was against Jews, right? 7 million. Using the Jews. Right. Using what? Specific Jews. Right. The Jews of Israel. Right. Those are what? Those are just gin, Right. That's a really strong stone. Right. So if you're gonna retaliate, you need a pretty strong f****** stone. Right? But you've always had your f****** ace in your back pocket. And we're talking scales of hundreds of thousands of years. This is a quick retaliation. Oof. Not really. Hundreds of thousands, Usually thousands of years. But yeah, a hundred years is a quick retaliation. It's really, really quick. Okay, so we're talking that these guys are making a pretty overpowered stone. If you're using Elysian DNA to make it.

Cristina: Yes.

Jack: That's. Potentially. They're calculating. The strongest stone ever made use is the equivalent of the weapons of mass destructions that we think exists, but secretly in the background. This is the real power. This is what people are really scared of. This is the true fear. And the problem is there's a very reminiscent thought that just happens to be a cartoon that really gives me a really good image of what's happening and why other people might already be stepping back. Because a lot of people stepped back right at the Beginning. And they're like, f***, bro. But why?

Cristina: Seem like some people are trying.

Jack: Yes, but what is the caution? Right? We know. We know a lot already. It's possible that these are just op gin. The tech is already up there. We can't do anything about these people to begin with. But there was a very vivid image I have, if you remember in Full Metal Alchemist, what made the military particularly dangerous?

Cristina: The fake stones. They're not fake, but, like, they had real stones, but they were wax stones.

Jack: They were small stones.

Cristina: Yeah.

Jack: Ring size, like a diamond ring.

Cristina: Yeah.

Jack: Tiny stones. Yeah, but they were real stones. But what about the stones made it great? Then everybody had one. The generals of every group, soldiers had guns, but the guy at the top of every tree, he had a stone. He worked his way to a stone, and he had to learn alchemy and do his homework.

Cristina: I think they just have a bunch of little stones.

Jack: I think we are in a situation where they've learned to casualize the ability to use these stones. And we've witnessed the flex. Like, maybe they've had it. And that's why we've been like, well, we're not gonna do it. They come from the other side, and they just become human. I think since that point, since the formation of Israel, they've had this, and nobody's gonna touch them. And then the first people to try their best to do so. Well, I mean, the state of Israel gets formed after N*** Germany.

Cristina: Right.

Jack: Didn't even exist until then. It's a response to that.

Cristina: Okay, you think they have stones, though?

Jack: I think at that point. I think at that point, they have stones. The state of Israel is controlled by essentially, quote, the generals with the stones, unquote, which are not really generals or military figures, but rather people of importance who have the ability to do real important damage on an interestingly overpowered scale. And that because of this, everybody has always just kind of done whatever. But the moment finally came. They told us, oh, yeah, we'll end this for you, but one day we're gonna do the thing. Because we have to.

Cristina: I don't want to just like, whatever.

Jack: And like, yeah, we're like, whatever. We'll deal with it then solve the problem now. Because we're stupid humans. We're stupid f****** humans. We're dumb. We think so. Short term, it's ridiculous. Part of the lifespan is retarded short. So, like, what the f*** would we do?

Cristina: Yeah, yeah.

Jack: You know, we think in our. In the terms of our lifespan, they're thinking in the terms of theirs it's not the same to them. That short blip is really tiny scoped. But no, we, we considered our whole life. It's like you're just considering a longer span and you're judging us. But ultimately these guys, no one can do anything. Nobody can do anything. And I think that's the big problem. And right now they are starting to form a really overpowered stone, more powerful than any that has been formed until now.

Cristina: Where? What, what are they gonna do then? What. What's the next step? They make the stone and then what?

Jack: I don't know. We'll just won't hear about them. It'll go back to normal. No, they won't leave. It'll just quiet down. They're gonna get their thing accomplished and that's it.

Cristina: You think they won't just escape out of here or something like the next step like all everyone else with their stones?

Jack: Yes, but not in our time. Time span. We're not going to see that happen. Oh, the next. Keep in mind they're performing at their time span, not ours. We're thinking, oh, within our time span of life. We don't know. We're not gonna see that happen.

Cristina: But it's gonna happen eventually.

Jack: Presumably. Yeah, within a couple of hundred years to a few thousand years or some thinking hundreds of years. Based on the time scope that we see, everything happens within dozens to hundreds. It seems to be the regular time frame of LEAPS. 300 years seems to be the average good jump from one point to another.

Cristina: That's crazy though. That's crazy.

Jack: What?

Cristina: That they're just making a stone?

Jack: Yeah. But it kind of checks out, right?

Cristina: Just waiting for the stone to be made.

Jack: Yeah. And this question was just stuck in my head when I was just wondering.

Cristina: What could they possibly be doing?

Jack: Not even what could they be doing, but why. Why did I know about the. The path of DNA?

Cristina: What did you know?

Jack: Well, I didn't know. I did research.

Cristina: Why did someone know?

Jack: Yeah, why did. Why did ancestry look at this? How did. What was the point? How did they get. Not why, obviously I don't know why they looked at everyone. How did they know that that existed? Right, but what's the answer to the question is because there's people with the DNA. So wait, you didn't kill everybody with the DNA? Duh. So then what does that mean? That means that there's something specific about the people over there.

Cristina: Mm.

Jack: So then what's specific about the people over there? That's not. You're just imprisoning the ones you could catch. No, there's a. There were a bunch. And you ignored them. You caught some for a reason. And then I was like, why the. What else could look like this? Well, scientists do this to preserve things, to keep things purer, which we can prove because they actually have a more concentrated version of the same DNA. And what does adrenochrome work with? It works with blood.

Cristina: Yeah.

Jack: And the higher quality of the blood, the better the stone, which is proven. Although never discussed explicitly other than through the events. But the numbers line up with the events. You need less numbers if you have a purer blood and you usually use a stone and some other kind of thing to try to make a purer creature to then use to make a better stone. There's a process they were always going through.

Cristina: Mm. So there's gonna be something next, then? Yes, next evolution is coming up.

Jack: It depends how long it takes from the stone.

Cristina: Okay.

Jack: Because. Yes, that was the other problem. Right. I'm like, okay, so the state of Israel happens, and then we discuss that, and we ignore the one fact that happens. Following that logic. Well, that group of individuals is what then? Well, the ones who could cross and turn themselves. Those are the elite scientists. That's also why those are the ones we're scared of. Those are currently the strongest, most powerful thing out here. Those are the ones who are gonna take the place of the Elysians. That's why everybody's horrified, too, because what we stopped is starting again.

Cristina: Oh, crap.

Jack: And we're watching it happen. And we know at any moment it could be f****** any of us. But we helped them, and now we have to pay. It's essentially the demon crossroads problem.

Cristina: Yeah.

Jack: I will reward you with whatever the f*** you want right now, but I am coming for you.

Cristina: And that's pretty much what happened. Okay. Yeah. Everyone had a problem.

Jack: Yes.

Cristina: The humans came and, like, we can help you.

Jack: Yes.

Cristina: Oh, crap. Oh, crap. Mel. Are gonna be our problem. And we just got to watch and wait. That's weird. It's really strange. Yeah.

Jack: And it's weird because they didn't even help us stop the Alicians. They helped us to stop the Germans. That's it. They rolled up and helped to stop other humans. It was easy for them to do. So easy for them to do. They did it through the United States. So easy for them to do. Simple. Simple, effortless. Because what? We can push humans around like nothing, but we're coming for you.

Cristina: That's crazy. That's too crazy.

Jack: We successfully spent almost 2000 years. Well, I guess we didn't make it the 2000 years roughly because that was sometime in the 40s and now it's 2024. So you know we, we cleared the 2000 year mark of having suppressed the issue, but we made a deal with the devil and not really. They're not bad people. We gotta continue the thought creatures that can easily do the thing aren't thinking of us as people. That's really all that's happening.

Cristina: We're not equal to them.

Jack: We're not equal. We're smaller, less significant things that could be easily manipulated.

Cristina: Which we were.

Jack: Which we were. And we're still being. So it's pretty cut and dry. And the moment finally arrived then we're watching it happen and we're kind of all shook but talking about in the background like how do we stop it? We can't, we can't just jump in. It would be too easy for them to end it all right now and go start somewhere else. It would be too easy. We invited this in. So how do we think our way out of the problem? First point of action.

Cristina: You have a plan?

Jack: Well, no, this is the p. This is, I'm assuming the world at the moment.

Cristina: Okay.

Jack: First point of action. The people of Gaza are f*****. We just have to let that happen. So that's a distraction while we talk, while we plan.

Cristina: Okay.

Jack: While we figure it out. That's our timeline. Because one, we already can't stop them. Two once that's done, we'll never stop them.

Cristina: Yeah.

Jack: So we gotta move to Mars. That's a, that's a possibility for sure. And the fact that. So the, the second thing, I don't know if you've looked at this and we can. If you want to.

Cristina: What?

Jack: Many, many, many, many, many billionaires and high hundred multi millionaires have been buying bunkers and buying seats to go visit Mars.

Cristina: That's not shocking, but okay. What can we do with that though?

Jack: Just all been happening. Buying seeds to leave the planet. Buying seeds to go underground.

Cristina: Yeah, because they know.

Jack: Because they know.

Cristina: What can you do? I don't know. It's very Egypt and my. What's the other people? Males.

Jack: Also how reminiscent of Horizon zero Dawn is the Mayans solution to hiding from the incoming apocalypse that they were experiencing.

Cristina: Yeah. And then the other people that went into space.

Jack: And then the other people went to space. Egyptians.

Cristina: Yeah, yeah.

Jack: No, it always, it's always the same. It's always the same. It's literally history repeating itself.

Cristina: Yeah.

Jack: Just away from baseland. That's it.

Cristina: And it's gonna happen.

Jack: And it's gonna happen again. Holy. We're seeing history happen again.

Cristina: Yes.

Jack: What the.

Cristina: Yeah.

Jack: Oh, that's crazy. That's really cool.

Cristina: That's cool that it happened in Horizon. We didn't even realize it.

Jack: Yeah. That's pretty badass. Good on them. That's fire. That's fire. I like that. D***. And we have neither.

Cristina: Neither. No.

Jack: No. Because we know the base is. That's just happening. So this is getting wiped out. We're part of the you're f***** group.

Cristina: No, we're not. We have.

Jack: Our bunk is not deep enough. We're not like Illuminati bunk. Our bunk is like, meh. Like a good. Like a missile directly hitting our territory.

Cristina: We can hide in one of the many locations where the Loch Ness monsters were protecting those random labs.

Jack: No, that's fair.

Cristina: Is that good?

Jack: Yeah. 100. And we're some of the only people who even know how to reach that.

Cristina: Okay.

Jack: Then that's kind of fire.

Cristina: We have something that's fair.

Jack: That makes a lot of sense. We act fair enough. We actually have a lot of. We could do the spacing too. That just kind of sucks.

Cristina: Does this look. I don't know.

Jack: I don't know. Like, we can just use the. The pyramid and like, warp out. But the problem is we sent a whole group of people there and that's just still nothing. So, like. Nah.

Cristina: We could some. No. How could we. Because we haven't figured it out. Travel to the place of the people that are listening to us.

Jack: Oh, crap. You mean Universe Three?

Cristina: Yes.

Jack: I don't even know how we would accomplish that.

Cristina: That's an idea. Very Full Metal Alchemist, then.

Jack: Yeah. Escape through those means hop through a portal or somehow. I mean, anything. Right? Because what's coming. Ultimately a group of people who are way more powerful than us are going to begin experimenting to advance their civilization, I guess. Or themselves to get out of here.

Cristina: Probably like everyone else. But out of this reality into Althaim?

Jack: I don't even know. Well. What. You pose a different argument, which we're still looking into, which is that it's not just out, but it's also creating universes of their own.

Cristina: Oh yeah.

Jack: And it's like. That's even more valuable because many of.

Cristina: Us do they have to sacrifice to do that?

Jack: How many of us do they have to sacrifice to do that? Keep in mind it looks like earthrealm itself is some sort of farm of elf fame. People of some degree. We're all sharing somehow that DNA. And the lesions are the Purest version of that.

Cristina: It's complicated.

Jack: Yeah. So, like, if you're trying to make something pure and then make a universe, you come here to do it. You leave the shadow realm, you come here.

Cristina: That makes sense.

Jack: And then you find the purest thing here, which are the people of Gaza.

Cristina: Yeah.

Jack: S***. Just so happens to be where they're at and exactly who they happen to be killing. What the f***?

Cristina: To make a new something. Yeah.

Jack: Just so happens to be what's happening. What the f*** are the odds?

Cristina: It makes sense though, right?

Jack: What the f***? Unless it's the most exact coincidence in all the f****** time. It is step by step what would need to happen. And it is literally what is happening.

Cristina: Yeah.

Jack: So, like, I don't know what to tell you guys. If there was ever a clearer image of some weird supernatural that just so happens to not be. I mean, at this point, I don't even think about it as supernatural. I've. It. I've rationalized it into technology.

Cristina: Yeah, me too.

Jack: You know, like, I've seen enough. I've seen it. We've seen images of literal tech. Our attack, it's just not our tech. It's just not our tech. But it's just foreign enough that it looks like magic. But then we look at it and it's like, well, that guy wasn't shooting energy out of a pot because magic. No, there was a. It was a battery, bro. And we saw it and we saw the inside. It's like, oh, I get it now. And then. Oh, my God, the staff. And he was controlling magnetism and electricity. Well, it was a staff wrapped in coils with a metal rod inside of it. And he was in an area that was intentionally built with a magnetic sphere around it, bouncing electrical currents that he could then manipulate with the rod. It was intentional. Yes. Of course it looked like he was controlling it, because that was the f****** goal of the technology. It's like, oh, with enough time and enough different angles of literally seeing it. Yeah. I no longer see it as magic and stuff.

Cristina: But we're in danger.

Jack: Oh, yeah, We're. We're. We're very. I don't know how we would solve this problem other than leaving, which seems to be what everybody who doesn't want.

Cristina: To bother seems like the problem. I mean, the solution. It seems like what everyone's doing is it's got to be out. No up or down, up or down.

Jack: But I'll tell you one thing. The last uprising worked.

Cristina: The last up. Right.

Jack: Think about it. The last uprising worked. Although these guys Jumped on the opportunity to capture a group of them because they knew what was coming. They knew. Wait, you guys will jump, we'll help you guys. And we're gonna trap this group of people. Anybody can own this s***. But we're eventually going to show up and we're going to establish ourselves and this group of people. We want that this group of people, you need to make sure that group of people 1 stay pure. We don't give a f*** who owns that group of people. It stays f****** pure or we eat you guys instead.

Cristina: What do you mean by an uprising?

Jack: The uprising that happened at the time of Jesus, when the Alicians were first broadcasted to the world their location and that the big war happened and that at that point, these people, these jinn who assisted in the act, who were the shadow gods, they show up and they help with this situation to suppress the Elysians, because they weren't even with them, they're against them. Right? So they roll up, they help the people. We successfully suppress the Alicians, they give one rule for their whole thing eventually. We want that group of people. So you keep that group of people? Yeah, that's why we've seen that their DNA manages to be completely purified, essentially. Well, not purified, but still diluted, but way less than the rest of us. And it simultaneously managed to be owned by different people, which you think it would mix and be diluted. But still with regardless of whose hands it was in, they followed the one rule of that stays pure.

Cristina: Okay, right.

Jack: And then World War II happens, they roll up, help solve the problem. Now we got the straight of Israel, totally unrelated to f****** Gaza. Just okay, but unrelated to f****** Gaza. They're just. Yeah, we're just taking. We just. We just own that now, guys. And everybody's like, well, they just own that now, guys. We don't. Yep, that's what it is. What the f***?

Cristina: I mean, it was theirs before they got there.

Jack: I guess that's the argument. But there's no such thing. Palestine always owned Gaza. Israel doesn't exist. In fact, Israel is a chunk of Palestine.

Cristina: Oh, but how, what can you do about shadow people?

Jack: Well, we know an uprising happened and succeeded at the time of Jesus. And it was for somebody more powerful, so much more powerful that even the shadow people jumped in to assist stopping the problem.

Cristina: But the shadow people were helping us with the sea people.

Jack: Yes, and then they rolled up and assisted for World War II. And then.

Cristina: Are you saying that someone else or something else is gonna help us with them?

Jack: No, I'm Saying that we still managed to stop the sea people. So an uprising succeeded. So an uprising can succeed, but it.

Cristina: Was with help of outsiders. I don't know.

Jack: Yes, but presumably those outsiders at. No, man, I was. My point went out the window once I thought about it right now. Because I'm gonna say those outsiders at that point were about as technologically advanced as we are now. But that's a lie. They were definitely way ahead of where we are now, even. Yeah, by like, a lot. Yeah, maybe not by like a lot.

Cristina: But like, enough from them to be able to change their bodies from whatever they were to whatever we are.

Jack: Like, we're looking at their, like, crazy tech. Yeah, they're like 2,000 years. No. Yeah, because we gotta think that they were really. When we see them swinging some kind of real ham of technology, it's like still 12, 000 years.

Cristina: Okay.

Jack: And it's like fog. Okay, so 12, 000 years before we.

Cristina: Get the crisis, hope that the sea people that are hiding pops up and defends us from them.

Jack: Why would they defend us?

Cristina: Exactly.

Jack: You know what's confusing about this? Because Jehovah was like, but you're killing the people and giving them the technology. But I guess when you think about it, it's more about we can't harvest them if they're dead. Yeah, right?

Cristina: Yeah.

Jack: It's like, why are you killing the cattle, bro? We can't keep killing the cattle, bro.

Cristina: You can't keep killing.

Jack: It's like. Is that. I guess. Yeah, I guess you could still explain it away. Fair enough. Fair enough. I was gonna try to jump on his defense now, but no, he's still pretty horrible because he was f******. Because I'm like, why is he experimenting on us and then defending us? And it's like, oh, no, he's just making sure we don't die.

Cristina: Yeah, you need some of us alive to continue experimenting.

Jack: Yeah. And you can't just f****** give them all tech and then they all collapse. Yeah, the whole line of the f****** equator, except the Alicia. The Egyptians collapse. Everybody. All of them. Except the Egyptians, of course. Of course. Stop, bro. Lucifer, homie. Come on, bro. I know you mean well, dog. Look, look, Dab me up, bro. You know, I. I respect what you're trying to do, bro, but you keep killing them and, like, they're just f****** dumb creatures, bro. Don't give them this s*** and then show them, and then they're just gonna try to kill the next guy.

Cristina: Yeah, it was just death. Like, if it was making stones, at least that'd be cool, but, like, it was wasted death.

Jack: It was wasted death. Exactly. Just trying to make intelligence happen. And it's like, come on, bro, it takes time.

Cristina: Yeah.

Jack: Or jump on board the project of breeding something that could learn faster, which is what everybody's trying to do. Why are you just trying to. I guess the shortcut. Fair enough.

Cristina: How they're here.

Jack: Okay. I lost a little respect for him. Fair enough. Fair enough. I see the problem. I see the problem. If we're people of honor and everybody else is doing the hard work and this m*********** is like. But maybe one of them will just miraculously work out and then we'll be done and. Except that never really happened. Playing the slow game might have worked out, but why? Because the ones that went to Norway and the ones that went to the Atlantic can monitor us and watch us and see where we're all. We're almost there anyways. Playing the slow game. Yeah.

Cristina: No countless of deaths involved, except for.

Jack: Like, what we caused to ourselves. And now the problem. Showing the shortcuts. Showing up again.

Cristina: Yeah, the shortcut. Yeah.

Jack: Oh, s***.

Cristina: That is always a danger.

Jack: That is always a danger. Oh, my God. There was a good guy.

Cristina: Ooh.

Jack: Well, it wasn't a good guy. There was a bad guy because a bunch of amoral s*** happening.

Cristina: Yes. So you can't really say anyone was specifically a good guy. Yeah.

Jack: Yeah. That's fair. That's fair. So there was a bunch of amoral s*** and then one exceptionally s***** guy who was like. But the shortcut to being immoral.

Cristina: Yeah.

Jack: Like, if a bunch of them died. Cool, man. But some of them will work out. It's like, what the f***?

Cristina: Mm.

Jack: Yeah, I guess that's kind of s*****. That's pretty bad.

Cristina: It's pretty bad. Yeah.

Jack: He seems. I guess. Oh, man. Lucifer is clever, Right? Because also the way the argument gets twisted by his point of view is he means well. He wants you to know stuff, but he excludes what the cost is.

Cristina: Death.

Jack: Death, most likely.

Cristina: Yeah.

Jack: He leaves that part out.

Cristina: Yeah. Like, it looks. It looks great. When you look, you don't see the results.

Jack: Yeah, exactly. Exactly. Hey, everybody, eat the fruit. You'll know everything if it doesn't kill you. Is the whole sentence.

Cristina: Yes. Okay.

Jack: You know.

Cristina: Yeah.

Jack: That's really the whole sentence. Hey, everybody, eat the fruit. You'll know everything. And then he just, like, you know, mumbled the rest of it. Hey, everybody. Everybody, eat the fruit. You'll know everything. And.

Cristina: Yeah.

Jack: You know, and it's like, what?

Cristina: We had, like, a giant contract, you Gotta accept. But you don't read all the terms. And somewhere in the back it was like.

Jack: And it was, it wasn't even in the back. It was just really exceptionally small and in parentheses and in the corner so it looks like an explanation to some other. And you're like, well no, I, I understood. I don't have to read the explanation because they lie to you. And like the first five times you see that same format of really tiny in parentheses in the corner. It was an explanation. And you tuned out by the third one. But the fourth one, that's the one that was actually the unrelated true clause.

Cristina: Yeah.

Jack: That you never read because you tuned out. You're like, it's more explanations. And that was clear enough. You know, just.

Cristina: That's exactly what happened.

Jack: That's exactly what he does. He's just smart enough to. He's Fox versus cnm. It's the same information. But you know, he decided to just say but I give you information all the time. And like nothing else.

Cristina: He's as bad as our journalism.

Jack: He's. He's as bad as our journalism. A thousand percent.

Cristina: Okay.

Jack: That is a fact. I mean. But all sides are. Everybody's just painting their picture.

Cristina: Yes. Okay. Yeah.

Jack: We can't trust any of it. We've even come across any of this information grabbing a thousand different sources at the same time and cross reference all of it. Because everybody's lying all the time. Only what everybody agrees on can we say is true. The rest is twisted by everybody.

Cristina: That's a lot.

Jack: Yeah. Basically, if it's about group A, I need to see what group B and C say. Because group A lied about it.

Cristina: Yes.

Jack: And it can't. If group A is talking about group B then I can't ask group B either. I have to look at what group C and D believe about the situation between group A and B. It's the only way I can tell the truth. Cuz both those m************ are gonna be biased as f***.

Cristina: Yeah.

Jack: That's the only way to ever get data.

Cristina: And that's two will also be a little bit biased because they're getting something out of it.

Jack: Yes. They only wrote it down because of the benefit to.

Cristina: So you know. Exactly.

Jack: You gotta get far enough. That's the problem. If you get too far, the information falls apart. And if you get too close, well, the information falls apart. It's just all lies.

Cristina: Exactly.

Jack: So you need to have this medium of like, I'm far enough that it's not just propaganda and I'm close enough that it's not just random gibberish.

Cristina: Mm.

Jack: So it's like a cohesive. I can get enough at this distance, perspectives. It looks right. And I get a whole image, which is a pain in the a** that we have to do this all the time.

Cristina: But what's our job?

Jack: It's literally our job. What the f*** else can we do? How else are we supposed to get to the bottom of the truth of the situation?

Cristina: Well, we did it, though. I think.

Jack: I think. I think. Yeah.

Cristina: Unless Jesus pops up.

Jack: I don't know. Well, that's the next problem here, Right? And you know what's really weird about it? But it kind of means the Bible's not lying. Let's think about it. Creatures from the shadow realm, what we would describe as h*** in a Bible roll up.

Cristina: Mm.

Jack: They begin what we would describe as the Apocalypse. Although it's happened before from our point of view, it's gonna satisfy that idea because they're gonna try to eat everything in Earth on Earth. Not literally eat, but, you know, kill us through experimentation and enslave us. And essentially h*** on Earth for just humans.

Cristina: Okay, Right.

Jack: But then Jesus shows up again. Again is the key word, because it would be again. And so him showing up is like, well, I'mma do what? I'm going to save the people. Specifically, who will? His people and everybody else who isn't the creatures that came from our proverbial h***. Weirdly enough, that's the apocalypse in the Bible. What the f***? But who said it would happen? F****** Jesus. The psychic.

Cristina: That. Yes. Okay. So, like, I also know that that's gonna happen.

Jack: Yes. He knew the whole time. He called it all.

Cristina: I mean. Yeah, that's part of being a necromancer. Yes.

Jack: He just. This is meaningless to him. He knows. He just kind of smacked them around casually whenever he feels bored enough to get involved.

Cristina: For that stone. Maybe.

Jack: He's gonna let them make it, isn't he?

Cristina: Yeah, I think so. Because he's also a neutral party after the disaster. And then we're like, yes, finally. He's finally here to save us or whatever. But it's like, it's really for that stone.

Jack: Yeah. He's gonna stop the rest from happening. But he's like, yeah, the Alicians.

Cristina: Yeah. Like he doesn't care.

Jack: He doesn't give a. He specifically hates them.

Cristina: Yeah.

Jack: The Alicia. Yes. No stone. Will he ever want more than that stone?

Cristina: The one out of the people he hates the most.

Jack: Yes. He's been waiting for this day.

Cristina: Yeah.

Jack: He probably been casually feeding these Information to come and take that stone, make it themselves.

Cristina: And she's like, this all probably started with him somehow.

Jack: Yeah, he. I mean, so he called it at the beginning. He literally said every part of it and every part is happening. And he. I mean, he said it's the master plan.

Cristina: Well, this is probably how he got the stone in the Shadow Realms.

Jack: Easily.

Cristina: Because he too overpowered. Yes, but, like, the shadow people in that place are probably shadow people he met during that adventure or whatever. Like, how did he get it? Like, how did he walk in? Did, like, what. What happened to those things that were there? Maybe those were his armies. Because we know he did bring back people. He brought back people?

Jack: Yes, he did. He brought two stones and he brought back people. Yeah. It's a craft.

Cristina: Those could be the sh. Those same shadow people there right now might be his people that he brought back in that moment.

Jack: S***. You know specifically who he brought back. Prisoners of Yahweh.

Cristina: Exactly.

Jack: S***.

Cristina: Exactly.

Jack: Oh, s***. Oh, man. That's on point. Wow.

Cristina: It all goes back. It does all make sense.

Jack: It does all make.

Cristina: It does make sense. Oh, my gosh. Of course he knows what's gonna happen. Those are. He planned it.

Jack: He planned it. Every part.

Cristina: He's waiting for it to happen.

Jack: Not even waiting. He could have blinked. For him, it could have been a split second. From being over there to being at the other end in the future. At some point, I'm like, okay, now let me collect the stone.

Cristina: Yeah, it's all for the stone. And we're just going to be cool with it because, like, it's Jesus.

Jack: It's. Jesus is going to roll up and be like, that was. Yeah, this was part of my plan.

Cristina: Yeah.

Jack: And we're all going to like, oh, yes.

Cristina: Okay.

Jack: Okay.

Cristina: Like, who's going to say anything? Yeah, nothing's gonna happen.

Jack: Yeah, we're gonna be like.

Cristina: People are gonna freak out and we're gonna have, like, people killing each other. Well, yeah, there's no. No one's gonna stop him.

Jack: And he's literally just gonna prove he's Jesus.

Cristina: Yeah, he's not gonna.

Jack: Like, he doesn't care. He's probably, like, I'm sure Hermes consistently all that. He didn't show anybody how to become. That's different. He had to. You gotta be. You know, you gotta acquire the knowledge to learn how to become a necromancer.

Cristina: Yeah.

Jack: But I'm sure he gladly showed everybody how he was a necromancer. You know, just like, oh, that's why the Jesus with the f****** walk on water and wine things casually. These guys bringing people back from the.

Cristina: Dead just to show.

Jack: Just for show. Yeah, magic tricks of all sorts. Bread and fish and this and that.

Cristina: And it's like, okay, it's gonna be the Messiah. The show all over again.

Jack: Yeah, man. No, I think, I think. Well, it's complicated, isn't it? He really did plan the whole f****** thing. It lines up.

Cristina: Yeah. He's gonna pop up and talked about it.

Jack: He said, oh, yeah, it's gonna happen and there's nothing any of you could do about it.

Cristina: And like his people, he brought them there. They're not just shadow. They're just not random shadow realm people that said, hey, we're gonna protect you. No, they were his specific shadow realm people that told us that they're gonna protect us because he told them to say that.

Jack: Yeah. And he'll easily get rid of the problem.

Cristina: Yes.

Jack: This is effortless. You could control everybody effortlessly. They swear this part. They swear this. This is their plan too, I bet. Yeah. I don't think they're word. They think, oh, we're working with Jesus. I think they think this is their plan.

Cristina: Yeah. He brought them back and they're like, yeah, this is what he wanted and that's it. But they're not questioning why. Or maybe they are, who knows? But that's so crazy because he knew and they're not gonna do anything about it.

Jack: No, it's nuts. This is crazy, man. He specifically saved the prisoners of Yahweh, which are the Jews of Yahweh. The tide with Yahweh. He was just. Yo, that's crazy.

Cristina: Then they have to know his plan. They are not just protecting those people out of an agreement to make them into stone. Like it has to be because Jesus want that. And they know the plan is to turn him into a stone so Jesus can have it. He saved them. The he. They must have a deal with him. He's the true devil at the crossroads.

Jack: Yeah. He is the devil at the crossroad. He's the top of it.

Cristina: Yes.

Jack: Oh. Oh, d***. That makes perfect sense. Well, whatever. We are out of time. But crazy.

Cristina: I understand why the people were afraid. Now we see it.

Jack: Now we see it. Now we see it.

Cristina: Them.

Jack: Yeah. Well, that group of sea people.

Cristina: Yes.

Jack: We might actually see the whole situation.

Cristina: That might be the step to the end of all of them. The first step to the end of all of them.

Jack: Well, it depends, because we still have the people, the sea people at the bottom of the island. They still had the same amount of time to work on their tank.

Cristina: They don't have a stone made out of themselves. That's the most powerful thing I've ever imagined.

Jack: S***. You're totally right. You're totally right, Bear.

Cristina: He has so many. And then he's gonna have this one.

Jack: No, to be honest, the other problem is. No, let me. S***, we gotta get out of here. But you brought up so many points. No, no, no. Let me f****** address this real quick because you're totally right on so many cases. First, the Elysians don't have a stone. Jesus stole all of them. After somehow the shadow people acquired them.

Cristina: Yes.

Jack: The Elysians have no stones. First problem. Problem number two, we're just talking about the ones we know created. But keep in mind we know about others. We're not even addressing twin towers going down. That was definitely one being made. Same people on both sides involved. World War II. Same people on both sides involved. It's always the same groups of people always making the same thing. And so we're assuming all of these stones are owned by the same people at this time.

Cristina: Which is Jesus.

Jack: Which is Jesus. Afraid, like. Yeah, there's no chance. You're totally right. There's no chance any elation is stepping up. There's no chance.

Cristina: Jesus has been making stones all this whole time. All these things have been. It's just him and his people that he has here, disguised as us.

Jack: Alternatively, desperate times, desperate measures, they went into two different directions.

Cristina: What do you mean?

Jack: The people who went west can definitely at this very moment be making pure Elysian stones. If they've gone mad with the need to retaliate. A caste system naturally evolved, and the bottom of the caste system is still equally pure DNA. But now you're the people who will be used to create stones. I'm sure a single Elysian stone, a pure one person Elysian stone, is quite powerful. I'm not saying super, but I'm saying equivalent to like a weak human stone. I think if you have an entire caste system that you can throw, say a hundred thousand people into and say you guys are all the stone and they already have a stone. Assuming they would devolve into that. We don't know how big the civilization is down there. Yeah, it would have had to expand underneath the water over 100,000 years, probably quite significantly. So who knows?

Cristina: Who knows? It's possible, but we don't.

Jack: Also, is Bioshock loosely based on what's happening there? Just saying. Anyways, totally random. Just thought about it.

Cristina: Yes.

Jack: Yeah. Mad stones. And I Don't even remember what my other point was.

Cristina: The Elysians might be having a plan, a backup plan.

Jack: Oh, s***. The people who went north, that's the backup plan. Because what's north? A group of what?

Cristina: Nepalem.

Jack: Nephilim. Is anything more f****** overpowered than a pure clean nephilim, which is a clean 50.50cut of human and deletion DNA.

Cristina: But that is what Gaza is.

Jack: That is not what Gaza is. Gaza is more diluted. It has to be 50. 50.

Cristina: Has to be 50. 50. Okay.

Jack: And that is what exists up north. If they trap and isolate that, then.

Cristina: They have a nice stone and then.

Jack: Breed that over the same amount of time. Keep in mind these groups of people are thinking in their time scales and.

Cristina: We don't know why they didn't stop. Like, we know that they know about those people, but haven't done anything to them, so it could happen. They're just letting them breed in that one specific location just in case of. Yes, there was always a backup. Okay. Oh, my gosh.

Jack: Okay, so just theories, you know, just talking about things. There's direction here.

Cristina: Interesting. Interesting. What? What? Craziness. Okay, so there's more. It's not just an easy word for Jesus.

Jack: At least.

Cristina: For Jesus, at least.

Jack: Yeah, there isn't. And it's definitely. You know, it's gonna get crazy. It's gonna get wild in some time.

Cristina: Okay, well, we can all just wait until that happens, I guess. I don't know. Because no one has a real plan anyway.

Jack: And, I mean, I'm sure the plan is being worked on.

Cristina: Besides the people that are trying to escape, everybody.

Jack: Yeah, I'm sure there's people trying to escape. There's the possible retaliation from the Elysian side, but we might. Ha. Man, if there's a can't. It sucks either way. It sucks either way. If this is real and this really happens, it doesn't matter who wins. We're f*****. It would have to be Jesus wins. If the Shadow People win, which I guess. No, it's Jesus. No, it wouldn't suck both ways, because Jesus would stop the Shadow People. They've. They're gonna be tossed away. Easy. He explained that plan. Yes, but no, he still knows what's gonna happen. The Alicians can't beat the plan. They think they can. Yeah, but he saw that fail too. He saw their plan. He saw their plan. He's a necromancer. He knows it worked. He's been on the other side. He saw it. That's why it doesn't matter.

Cristina: I don't know. Maybe he hasn't seen that specific plan.

Jack: Everything has come true. That's overpowered. Come on. That's pretty.

Cristina: Maybe they're so secretive about that plan that they don't really have that as a plan.

Jack: But how? He's psychic. He could just. He still knows that.

Cristina: That could be.

Jack: Unless they're somehow blocking it out.

Cristina: Yeah, they can't. I don't know.

Jack: Well, I still don't know if his psychic ability allows him to zone in on people like that, but I don't know. Anyways. Anyways, if you guys. Yeah, there's a lot. There's too much. If you guys have any information that you want to give us on any of this, if you guys have any perspectives or data or any. Anything you want to talk about, you could do that. Hit us up on our social medias. You can communicate with us doing that at just Convo pod that's on Tik Tok, Facebook, Instagram X.

Cristina: And remember to subscribe, rate and review the show.

Jack: Yes. And word of mouth is the most overpowered thing that's existed in all of history. And look, I always think this s***'s almost ending, and then another door opens and then it's infinite.

Cristina: You'll never do. Never close. It will never close.

Jack: It will never close. And it makes only more sense as time goes by. It's maddening.

Cristina: This program contains strong themes meant for a mature audience. Discretion is advised.

Jack: Going live in 5, 4.

Cristina: What does live mean? Welcome to Just Conversation, the show where we ground humanity's most absurd and baffling ideals in childish ways. I'm your host, Christina.

Jack: And I'm Jack.

Cristina: And if you haven't yet, remember to hit that subscribe button to get get notified the second new episodes are released.

Jack: Yes, and also, this show is most enjoyable with a listening partner, so be sure to find somebody to make your listening partner, regardless of who they are, regardless of where they're from, regardless of. Even if you saw them on the street, casually, as they were walking, you point at them and you tell them, hey, you're my listening partner.

Cristina: And what if they walk away?

Jack: Well, then you resort to other means of getting that person who you've chosen and thus must be the one.

Cristina: They must be the one.

Jack: You chose them now. They are the one. They are the one.

Cristina: Okay.

Jack: Yeah. That's how it goes. So the world works?

Cristina: You just make them the one?

Jack: You make them the one.

Cristina: Is it like love at first sight?

Jack: Yeah. You force them to be the one.

Cristina: The one.

Jack: The one.

Cristina: Okay.

Jack: That's your listening partner.

Cristina: That's not creepy.

Jack: No, no, it's very normal. People do it all the time.

Cristina: Mm. Guess what holidays coming up.

Jack: What holiday?

Cristina: St. Patrick's Day. Our favorite saint.

Jack: Yes, that's the OG saint. The saint that gets. He. Basically, he's God. He's the only guy God is scared of.

Cristina: He's a God. He's a guy God is scared of. What?

Jack: Yeah. God makes God do whatever he wants, whenever he wants, however he wants, simply because he wants.

Cristina: Yeah, well, God, I guess, isn't the only person afraid of St. Patrick.

Jack: I mean, he makes God scared. I'm sure just by, you know, process of elimination, everybody else should be scared.

Cristina: Yes. And everyone was scared. That's why I found the story, a different story of that he. Of him getting rid of snakes. But it wasn't just snakes that he got rid of. It was snakes and demons.

Jack: Snakes and demons?

Cristina: Yes. And there was this specific demon that didn't want to run away. When he told all the snakes and demons to leave and then they ran, what happened was he told them to leave, I guess. And so they drowned into the ocean. They listened and drowned and died.

Jack: Sweet, but what the f***?

Cristina: Yes. That's how he got rid of them. By murdering them with his words.

Jack: Sounds legit.

Cristina: Yes. And there's this specific one that can't pronounce her name, but in English, we could call her the fire Spitter.

Jack: The fire spitter?

Cristina: Yes. And she's either the devil's mom or all demons. Mom. Mom. Yes. There's two different ideas of what she was besides the fire spitter. That's what I found. It's unsure, right?

Jack: Kind of like vampire hunter D or something.

Cristina: Yes. So she might be the devil's mom. But anyway, when he was getting rid of all the snakes and demons from the island, she decided to hide.

Jack: So she survived for a little while. And she let all her children die.

Cristina: Definitely because she's too busy trying to stay alive.

Jack: It's like, f*** this. Every. Every man for themselves.

Cristina: Yes. So, like, he went on top of a mountain, and he told them to go into the sea and drown, and they did. And then she somehow. I don't know how she managed to escape, but maybe she, like, closed her ears when she saw him on the mountain. Like something bad is about to happen.

Jack: Yeah.

Cristina: And it did. But he saw her before she could completely hide herself, and he chased her down with the fastest horse Ireland had at the time.

Jack: Faster than de Demons.

Cristina: Yeah, actually faster than demons because he did outrun her while she was running. She was too busy, though, throwing Spitfire into every water. Well, because she thought, oh, this is gonna take forever, and eventually he'll get thirsty and drink water. But he was smart and was like, I'm not going to drink this poisoned water. So he didn't drink the poisoned water, and he just kept going. And then he passed her, of course.

Jack: You mean caught up.

Cristina: Yes.

Jack: It wasn't raised. He wasn't like, well, I passed you. You're behind me.

Cristina: Yes. Okay. And then he waited for her. And then when she came, I mean, and then when he saw her, he jumped. He jumped out of his hiding spot and banished her. And then she also drowned into the ocean.

Jack: Sweet. Okay, so everybody died.

Cristina: Yeah, everyone died, but she was the last to die.

Jack: So he's just killer of demons, forcing creatures to commit suicide left and right and sell God. So he controls gods, angels, demons, everything. He's just some sort of overpowered deity that we don't even label a deity. But he's like. He's beyond the demigod.

Cristina: He's. He is the God.

Jack: Like, we have to assume Jehovah is a demigod based on the traits we understand. Jehovah, he's. He has emotions. Yeah, an omniscient God can't have emotions. That. That wouldn't make sense. Right, And God can get jealous, angry, all these things. God needs you to worship. Him. Because he's not. He tells you specifically, worship me. No. Other gods is like, okay, so there's others like you. You're not omniscient. You're not every God all at the same time. You're one of them. Yes, but it seems like the real omniscient God is Saint Patrick. What he had a horse, is faster than demons. He could just will that to happen.

Cristina: Well, they gave it to him.

Jack: Who?

Cristina: I don't. The Ireland people. Yeah.

Jack: It was just a normal. That means it was just a normal horse. They gave him a normal horse.

Cristina: Was the fastest horse.

Jack: Yeah.

Cristina: Like here.

Jack: But to them, fast is different than to him. And he got a horse and it was probably, you know, normal fast.

Cristina: It was like a winner of normal horse races.

Jack: Yeah, exactly. But then he got on the horse.

Cristina: He powered that horse, became the fastest horse.

Jack: Knight Rider type of s***. He got on the horse, the horse flamed. It burst into flames, and it was just leaving a trail of fire.

Cristina: It died that day.

Jack: As soon as he got off it, it just became normal. And it was on fire. Yeah.

Cristina: Yeah, it died.

Jack: But he doesn't care. He kills everything.

Cristina: He kills everything. Well, if you.

Jack: That's why God is like, I'll do whatever you want. Just don't kill me.

Cristina: Because God is just an angel, a demon deity.

Jack: He's a demigod.

Cristina: Okay. So complicated. But what's even more complicated is I tried to find out what a fairy was, right. Because of St. Patrick's Day in Ireland. And they're known for fairies, right?

Jack: Yeah.

Cristina: And I'm so confused. I'm so confused. Fairies are so many things, but what they originally were, they were seen as deities. Gods. They were gods.

Jack: Right.

Cristina: But then over time, because Christianity came to the island, they were demoted to stay around so that they wouldn't have to actually get rid of them. Because I guess the Christians actually like these stories, and they're like, wow, they're pretty interesting. But what if they were just creatures, magical creatures instead of gods? Because there can only be one God. So I don't know. Is God stronger than their God if he could turn them into magical creatures?

Jack: It was St. Patrick that did it.

Cristina: It was St. Patrick. Oh, yes. Okay.

Jack: The pioneer. The guy who brought Christianity to Ireland. St Patrick then decided, yeah, I'm a strip you guys of your exaggerated godlike powers. I don't want you to be gods anymore. Now. Now you're just f******. You're gonna be there like the humans. You can be just a different f****** creature.

Cristina: Yeah.

Jack: And then he did that, well, these.

Cristina: Guys were, I guess weren't that powerful anyway because they were the original people living on Ireland.

Jack: So you're telling me Ireland is Olympus?

Cristina: Is Olympus. Once upon a time, maybe like they were able to travel from the other world into Ireland and they loved it so much that they lived there. But then other people wanted Ireland for themselves. They've had many wars trying to defend their home, but they finally lost to St. Patrick. To the Irish people or to the ancestors of the Irish people, one led by St Patrick. Yes, he's a time travel as well. Time traveler as well.

Jack: Are we just to say that St. Patrick's is the real Kratos?

Cristina: Yes, the Kratos, Yes.

Jack: Yeah, he was just the mortal once upon a time. But eventually he killed a God, got all God's powers and used that to manipulate the rest of everything. St. Patrick, the real God of war.

Cristina: Well, from what I understand, these gods that were defeated by the Irish people shrunk themselves. They loved Ireland so much that they decided we'll just be small and live underground.

Jack: And thus the invention of midgets.

Cristina: Close, I guess. Leprechauns. Leprechauns and so many other creatures. Okay. There are so many different types of fairy races. You probably didn't think of them as fairies though. Which are dwarves, elves, gnomes, goblins, brownies and pixies.

Jack: The h*** is a brownie? Is that a racist term?

Cristina: No, it's just another short magical, human like creature thing. Yeah, they're all short magical, human like creature things.

Jack: Okay.

Cristina: Yes. And what I feel like when somebody.

Jack: Says leprechaun, they mean all of these things. Leprechaun is the blanket term? Almost.

Cristina: No. Leprechaun is a type of fairy.

Jack: I get that.

Cristina: Fairy is the blanket term thing.

Jack: Fairies, the blanket term.

Cristina: Yes.

Jack: Do Westerners say leprechaun and mean fairies and all the other stuff to Western like they mean fairy and fairies, the blanket term to them. When we say fairy, we think Na' Vi from Ocarina of Time.

Cristina: There's no fairy that's like that fairy. We made that up.

Jack: My point is exact.

Cristina: Okay, that's not a thing.

Jack: Westerners say leprechaun and mean all the different kinds of fairies.

Cristina: I don't know. I think we just see leprechauns as leprechauns.

Jack: Right. But if you showed us a different one of those fairies, what would we call it? We would probably call it a leprechaun.

Cristina: Even an elf. If we saw elf or gnome. We know what gnomes are.

Jack: Oh, S***. Okay, there we go. Now we're getting to places.

Cristina: Dwarfs. You know what a dwarf is?

Jack: A dwarf is just a person.

Cristina: No, they're magical little people. They're magical.

Jack: Whoa. So you're telling me Peter Dinklage is a magical fairy?

Cristina: No.

Jack: And that's why he has all these jobs.

Cristina: He's sprinkling has become two different things. Okay.

Jack: He's sprinkling his fairy dust all over people. You're telling me he's unfairly in justly getting these jobs when Wee man should be getting some of them?

Cristina: Look, fairies are complicated. They're very complicated. He may be a fairy because fairies could be every and many things. There's so many words for fairies. You could say fairy, but you can also call them sprites, you can call them spirits, you can call them supernatural entities. You can even call them angels and demons.

Jack: Right? Okay. We've established this in the Shadow Realm episode. For further information, go back there. Listen to that. Get informed.

Cristina: It is so annoying. It's so annoying.

Jack: It is. When I was figuring that out.

Cristina: Yes.

Jack: I came across a lot of these problems in which limbo is purgatory, and that is the Shadow Realm, and that is an alternate version of this reality. And that what's there is here and here is there. And it's the same, but different. It has a different name, but it's the same. It's like. Yeah, it's complicated.

Cristina: There was one thing about the other, the other realm that I don't know if you talked about that I think. If you haven't, I just want to mention, though, is that time works different there.

Jack: Probably. The concept of time in itself might be entirely different.

Cristina: Yeah, but, like, for the rare people that have been able to go there and come back, hundreds of years would pass by.

Jack: It depends.

Cristina: It depends.

Jack: It depends. Let's say you get there through some form of astral projection, and you're there as a spirit. Right. Your spirit might be over there hundreds of years, and over here, hundreds of years don't pass. You might come back after being hundreds of years over there and it was only one night's sleep over here.

Cristina: Oh, I read the opposite of.

Jack: Well, that's my point. It depends on the approach that's happening.

Cristina: Oh, okay. All right. So it's. That's as complicated as the word fairy. Okay.

Jack: It's very, very f*****.

Cristina: Yes. But. Okay, so there's the leprechaun, the most famous fairy. Right. Maybe.

Jack: I'd say that other than Navi, she's not a fairy. What the h*** is she. They call her a fairy.

Cristina: That's an American made up creature. So is Tinkerbell. Tinkerbell is not a fairy.

Jack: Well, she's not a fairy by their terms. But then you have to tell me that a Japanese dragon like Shenron and then a Western dragon, that's like a giant lizard, like an iguana, a ginormous iguana with wings that breathes fire, are not both dragons.

Cristina: Okay, well, we're. Right now we're just talking about Irish creatures. Okay. They're not Irish fairies.

Jack: Got you. They're not Irish fairies.

Cristina: Correct. Because this is an Irish episode to celebrate our favorite saint.

Jack: Got you.

Cristina: So. Yeah. So what was it? Navi.

Jack: Navi.

Cristina: Navi. I guess that's a Japanese fairy.

Jack: Yes, but she's not an Irish. And she's specifically a Shinto Japanese fairy.

Cristina: Okay. And then I guess the Americans made. Not the Americans. The English made Tinkerbell.

Jack: Yes.

Cristina: Okay. But yes, none of these fairies have wings. I guess is one interesting different thing from all the ones that you could think. The ones you mentioned.

Jack: Yeah, you can actually see that in a lot of cultures where there is a shift in there. If we go back to the dragons, the Japanese dragons don't have wings. They're just like floating snake things.

Cristina: I thought it was the Chinese dragon.

Jack: Oh, it's a Chinese dragon. Well, I guess both of them, right? Yeah, they're pretty similar.

Cristina: Okay. The Asian dragons and then.

Jack: Yeah, Asian dragons. There you go. The Asian dragons don't have wings and then the western dragons do. Yeah, the Asian dragons are kind of like a snake, but the western dragons are like a lizard.

Cristina: But they're both huge, I think. Right?

Jack: Yeah, they're both ginormous. Although I believe the Japanese dragon is much bigger. Do they have. Are there any fairy, like any dragon, like fairies without wings and like floating snake thing or. They're all little people.

Cristina: They're all little people. I will talk about. I do want to talk about some other creatures in Ireland that I don't know if they're under the fairy description.

Jack: Interesting. So then tell me which one are the fairies? What? Break them down and explain these to me.

Cristina: Okay, there's. I'm gonna mention like. Okay, there's the leprechaun, of course.

Jack: What's the get up there?

Cristina: He's the lucky fairy, I guess. He's the one with the gold in the end of the rainbow. And you can get it if you catch him. He'll grant you three wishes, but you have to do it quickly because he'll try to trick You. And that would suck.

Jack: Trick you how?

Cristina: Well. Oh, One of the things about these fairies is they're all tricksters. They're all tricksters. I don't know if there's any fairies that aren't tricksters, but they all seem like tricksters. And they're not seen as evil. Trick tricksters evil either. Yes, but some of them do sound evil. Some of them are evil tricksters. Some of them are just regular trolley guys. But the leprechaun seems like the good kind, I guess, of the tricksters. Anyway, there's a story about a guy who caught a leprechaun and he wished to be taken to the gold. And the. And the leprechaun did show him where the tree was, where the gold was hidden. So the man put a marking on the tree and he let go of the leprechaun to find a shovel. But then when he came back, all the trees were marked the same way he marked the tree that he had.

Jack: Interesting.

Cristina: Yep. Yep.

Jack: So there was no way for him to tell which one it was?

Cristina: Nope. He really messed up on that.

Jack: Yeah, so.

Cristina: So if you get a leprechaun, he shows you the gold, you gotta somehow.

Jack: Get it at that moment.

Cristina: At that moment, yes.

Jack: Interesting.

Cristina: I wonder if you can waste the wish, though, to have the leprechaun help you get the gold and also to leave you alone.

Jack: I'm sure there's wish rules, otherwise systems would be broken. You could also wish for many wishes if you could do that, you know.

Cristina: Yeah, but could you trust a leprechaun to tell you the rules of the wishes if there are tricksters?

Jack: Well, on the first one, you wish to be told the rules. If you have three wishes. On the second one, if it's not against the rules, then you wish for more wishes. And if it is against the rules, then you didn't waste a wish and instead you asked the leprechaun to help you. Unless that's also against rules.

Cristina: Okay.

Jack: In which case you still got two wishes, but I don't know, like, one.

Cristina: Of the other still has to be to show you where the gold is.

Jack: Yes. Okay, fine. So now you know where the gold is. The other one has to be, don't kill me while I take this gold.

Cristina: Don't kill. Well, he might not kill you. He just won't want you to steal his gold. So he's gonna do some other weird thing that probably hurts you, but doesn't murder you. Yeah, he's not evil.

Jack: Don't disrupt me at all.

Cristina: Yes.

Jack: While stealing Your gold.

Cristina: Alright. Even though they're not seen as evil, there are some stories where they sound a bit evil. So there's this story about a king who fell asleep on a beach and when he woke up, he found himself being dragged into the sea by three leprechauns.

Jack: To drown.

Cristina: I'm pretty sure to drown him. Maybe he's related to St. Patrick and they're like, we gotta get revenge.

Jack: It could be. Who the h*** knows? Maybe it was St. Patrick, but he.

Cristina: Was able to catch one of them and. And they granted him three wishes in exchange for them to release him.

Jack: And then what was one of the wishes?

Cristina: I don't know. To be released.

Jack: That's it. Guy just got. We got the story of a guy who caught a leprechaun and we don't know what he wished for.

Cristina: He died. It was a lie. They're just trying to cover up that they're evil because there's some. There's stories that differ between whether a leprechaun is harmless or really, really evil. So I guess it depends. I don't know. Some are evil, some aren't. That's what I'm going with.

Jack: There is a literal movie about evil leprechauns, I believe, called Leprechaun.

Cristina: Yeah, it's some weird horror movie series thing.

Jack: Serious. Oh, it's. There's many of them.

Cristina: There's many movies. So many. Like it's like a Freddy versus, you know, a Freddy movie or a Jason movie. It's just like he keeps coming back.

Jack: Oh, is it the same leprechaun?

Cristina: I'm not sure. I think so. It looks the same. Crappy looking version. I've never seen a nice looking leprechaun. Yeah, version, but okay, like Chucky. Who does he ever change his look? It's always the same dude being in a doll, right?

Jack: I think so.

Cristina: That dude is just unlucky. He should just die. His life sucks. I don't know what he's doing. Although everything he's doing in the rest of the movies make no sense because the. In the original movie he was. If he can't get into a child's body in I think a certain amount of time, then he's stuck in the doll's body. So that's it. He's stuck in that body like the rest of the movies don't make any sense of him trying to get into another person's body because he wasted the time. It's over for him.

Jack: Yeah, that's weird.

Cristina: But he still tries. But. And of Course, never does. But even if he managed, it doesn't make sense to the first movie unless they change that in the reboot. But anyway, there are other types of things that are very similar to leprechauns, and one of them is, I guess, he's a lot like a leprechaun. But he loves to drink and he's famous to haunt wine cellars and drink all the wine in there.

Jack: So he's an alcoholic?

Cristina: Basically, yes, he's the alcoholic leprechaun. And he's also described as a trickster and a practical jokester because I guess most leprechauns are. Then there's another leprechaun type fairy which likes to seduce women.

Jack: As a short individual.

Cristina: Yes, he's really good at seducing ladies. He goes to lonely places where I guess they're just like, why? I just want to fall in love. And then he comes and then they're like, whoa, make love to me. I don't know how his magic works. He comes on them and he comes on them. But it's very unlucky to meet him. Very. Because his skin is addictive and put in to it's toxic and addictive and seducing the person, they really. They really just become addicted to him. Like they need him.

Jack: Right, so it's his power.

Cristina: Well, it's his skin's power. I mean, yeah, it's his power, like superpower type thing. And the women end up dying from withdrawal after he leaves.

Jack: So they all die.

Cristina: Yep, yep, they die. But then there's the Farduring, which is the evil leprechaun, because none of those are evil. They're not evil. Except for that one that sounds a little.

Jack: How is this one any more or less evil?

Cristina: Well, this guy. Oh, his name translates to Red man. This guy Redman, he wears a red cape and hat and he does some really gross practical jokes. Like he likes to put people into sacks and kidnap people. And then there was a story where he makes them make him dinner and then when they look at the dinner, it's a witch. I don't know. I don't know how that's evil or whatever. That's just weird.

Jack: Very strange. Yes, yes.

Cristina: This is a very strange thing. But usually he just traps people in rooms.

Jack: That doesn't sound like malicious or evil. It just sounds like a douchebag.

Cristina: And. Yeah, it does. It does. He does terrifying noises. One of them is described as laughing like a dead man, which I'm not really sure what that sounds like, but that sounds like, it would be terrifying if you knew that that's what you're specifically listening to. Maybe it's a person you knew that died and you hear that laughing.

Jack: That would make sense.

Cristina: That's kind of horrifying.

Jack: Yeah, Like a very distinct laugh that you shouldn't be hearing.

Cristina: Mm. And he's also the people. The person stealing the human babies and replacing them with changelings. Remember the changelings we talked about last year?

Jack: Yeah.

Cristina: Yep. He's the one. He's. He's the one doing it.

Jack: Why does he kidnap the children again?

Cristina: To replace them with. I don't know. To replace. As a joke, I guess. To replace them with fairy children. Right.

Jack: And then what does he do with the kid?

Cristina: Don't remember we talked about this last year, and I don't remember. You don't remember?

Jack: No.

Cristina: I'm not sure. Maybe the kids are slaves while they're baby. Like, they don't.

Jack: Underwear gnome logic.

Cristina: Yes, But I guess the purpose, though, of stealing the human babies so that these other babies could be raised and they don't have to actually raise the babies. Fairies are lazy, and they don't want to raise their babies. So they're like, let's get these humans.

Jack: To raise our babies minus a human baby they now have to raise.

Cristina: I'm sure they're not raising those babies. They throw them in the trash.

Jack: And thus the question of where trash babies come from is answered.

Cristina: Yes. That's where trash babies come from. They're also. They also bring nightmares. And they just. They just like to terror. Terrorize people. They just love terrorizing.

Jack: I mean, minus the kidnapping part. Everything else is pretty. Pretty chill.

Cristina: Even the swapping babies thing is chill.

Jack: That's the part I'm talking about.

Cristina: Oh, I thought you meant the other kidnapping of, like, when he made the guy cook and then it somehow became a witch, or trapping the person in a room, and then the scary voices.

Jack: None of that is kidnapping.

Cristina: None of that is kidnapping. But that all sounds pretty bad. No. Okay.

Jack: Sounds scary, not evil.

Cristina: Okay. Well, there's one way to avoid his tricks. You have to say, you will not mock me before he traps you.

Jack: So you could just walk around saying, you will not mock me.

Cristina: Yes, but they. But it's really hard because they set up very good traps. So you have to say before you're trapped, but you might end up being trapped before you say it, so you gotta say it. I guess you have to walk around saying it, just hoping not to get trapped.

Jack: Yeah. Or is it just, like, how. What's the Deadline on this. Can you just say it now and then you're just good forever?

Cristina: Maybe. I don't know. Probably not. You probably have to walk around saying that they're also called rat boys because they're fat.

Jack: The evil ones?

Cristina: Yes, the evil ones. They're fat. They have dark hairy skin. They have a long snout and a skinny tail.

Jack: So they don't look like dwarfs. No, they don't look human.

Cristina: They don't. They look like a giant rat. I guess they look like a. They look like a giant rat. But they're still described as being a type of leprechaun. But an evil leprechaun.

Jack: An evil rat. Leprechaun.

Cristina: Evil rat. Leprechaun. Yes. That cause nightmares and bad luck.

Jack: I feel like this is totally backwards because instead of it being a little person, it's just a giant rat.

Cristina: It's just a giant rat. Oh, it is a giant rat. Yeah. Maybe it's not a leprechaun. Maybe it's just a giant magical rat.

Jack: Sounds like it.

Cristina: Yeah. So then it's just a fairy. Not really a leprechaun. A leprechaun. So who knows. And then there's some other Ireland creatures. There's these things called the Merrow men. And the merrow. The Merrow men are ugly sea creatures. And the females are called marrows. Are beautiful because they're always beautiful, aren't they? All the women are beautiful in these type of stories.

Jack: Yeah. That's how the succubus is so attractive. And the incubus is, I don't know. A monster.

Cristina: Yes. Oh yeah, we talked about that too. Yeah, that's. And the Merrell. The Merrells are not. They're not mermaids. They have human legs instead of a tail. Except that they're. They have large flat feet and webbed fingers to help them swim.

Jack: So they are basically the swamp creature.

Cristina: Yes, they're the swamp creature. And the Merrell's ability to. To swim in water or to travel in water is from her clothes. She has a cape or a cap, depending on the story. And when she takes it off, she loses the ability. And usually a man will find it and hide it so that he could marry her because she's beautiful. And also she has lots of gold from the sea, I guess.

Jack: Okay. Sweet. Fantastic. So like a half fish woman. That's gorgeous.

Cristina: Yes. And rich.

Jack: And rich.

Cristina: Yes. And then. But if she finds her missing cape or cap, she'll end up running away and returning to the sea, leaving her husband and their children and many Families claim to be descendants from these Merrells who were entrapped by fishermen.

Jack: Really? Like, somewhere up the line, their grandma was a fish lady who jumped in the water. And we're sure that it wasn't just a crazy lady who committed suicide?

Cristina: Yeah. It could just be a lady who just abandoned her family. Maybe committed suicide, maybe not. Maybe she just abandoned her family and they were like, no way would she abandon us. She must have been a marrow.

Jack: Chances are the father made that lie up for the children.

Cristina: Yes. And then there's this thing called a banshee, which is a female spirit. I'm not sure. Spirit, fairy, sprite? I don't know.

Jack: I've heard of banshees. They're known for screaming.

Cristina: They're known for screaming? Yes. Well, crying. They're considered a omen of death. Whenever you hear her, you could assume someone's about to die.

Jack: That makes sense. They. They're known. You like, you hear them in the woods and s***. A lot of the time you hear the screams of a banshee. There's a couple of songs about that too.

Cristina: Really? Well, there's some stories where they just find her by their window. She's just next to their window crying.

Jack: That's f****** horrifying.

Cristina: Yes, well, her appearance isn't that. Well, sometimes. It depends, because she has three different appearances. She can look like a young lady, she can look like a regular woman, and she can look like a withering hag. So her age varies.

Jack: F****** banshee.

Cristina: And she can also appear as a crow, weasel or another creature called a stout. That, I think is also a type of weasel.

Jack: I didn't know that. So she could, like, shapeshift.

Cristina: Yeah. And I have three stories of this banshee lady. There was a couple who stayed at a friend's castle, a friend's castle. And on the first night around 1am, the wife heard a cry by the window. And when she looked, she saw some lady there, a lady leaning on the window, crying. And she woke up her husband scared and stuff. And then in the next day, they told. I don't know if they told their friend the story, but anyway, the next day their friend told them that she was all night up because she was with her dying cousin and her very sick cousin. And at the same time, he died. Okay. She told them that even though it's the best room of the house, there's a ghost of a lady that haunts the house. The ghost is of the former owner of the house who killed his wife. His pregnant wife. And that's the banshee that hangs out in the window?

Jack: His former wife? Yeah, but she died inside the house. Why is she hanging outside as a ghost?

Cristina: Why is she hanging outside as a ghost? Because that's what banshees do. I don't know. There's no stories of a banshee hanging out inside a house.

Jack: So she got killed and was like, I'm gonna go outside now.

Cristina: What if she got killed outside?

Jack: I thought she got killed in the house.

Cristina: No, he got. He died in the house. Her cousin died in the house.

Jack: Didn't he kill her?

Cristina: No, The. The owners of the house. The original. The former owners of the house. The husband killed the wife.

Jack: And that's the banshee.

Cristina: And that's the banshee? Yes.

Jack: The wife that died.

Cristina: Yes.

Jack: Why didn't she haunt the house from inside the house where she died?

Cristina: We don't know that she died inside the house.

Jack: Didn't he kill her in the house?

Cristina: He killed her and they lived in that house.

Jack: Got it.

Cristina: But that doesn't.

Jack: Got it, got it, got it.

Cristina: I understand.

Jack: I understand.

Cristina: Like, yes, maybe he did kill her in the house, but I don't. We don't know that. We don't know where he killed her. It could be anywhere. So. But that's one story. Then there's stories where people from Ireland, they move far away and a banshee still follows them. It finds their way to them.

Jack: That's interesting. Reminds me of that show that's totally full of s*** of the people who moved into the house. Or do you know the people who tell them they're f****** the time I saw a ghost or whatever the f***. And then they got reenactors and s***.

Cristina: Yes.

Jack: The ghost story in the room.

Cristina: Oh, yeah, okay.

Jack: That s*** that. This reminds me of that, like, he would. They were like, if we move, we'll be fine. Then they did, and then he stopped seeing her for a while, and then she popped up again.

Cristina: Well, she was hispan. She.

Jack: Except she wasn't screaming. She was just hanging in a closet. Except she was originally from the closet that she was hung in.

Cristina: Yes.

Jack: And then she was just like, now, Imma go hang in your new closet.

Cristina: Yes. And then I think he also saw.

Jack: Her outside, which makes no f****** sense because presumably she was haunting the place, Meaning now she haunts you. And anybody who lives in that house is fine.

Cristina: Now, I don't. I don't know how ghosts work. What if they can haunt more than one thing at a time?

Jack: That's crazy. Anybody who goes through that house is haunted by the saint. So if everybody in the world stayed at that house and then moved, they would all be haunted by the same ghost at the same time.

Cristina: Yes.

Jack: And that's what's happening with this banshee. Basically.

Cristina: Except none of his family was haunted and they all lived there. Maybe have to be in that specific room.

Jack: Could be.

Cristina: How are we gonna get all these people into that room?

Jack: That's crazy.

Cristina: That's crazy. But yes, like the banshee and these, these two stories, they moved to. They moved to Canada and Yeah. They heard the cry. And then the next day in one of the stories, the man of the house and his oldest son died in a boating accident. The next day after they heard the strange cry, they also asked people about the strange cry and no one saw anyone by the house, but they all heard the cry.

Jack: That's fascinating. I wonder if that has happened recently, like with banshees, you know? So banshees is an Irish creature.

Cristina: Yes.

Jack: Interesting, interesting. Because that's prominent in Western culture. That's prominent as h*** over here because.

Cristina: Irish people came over here and brought their banshees.

Jack: Interesting, interesting. Can you imagine? Like, let's say banshees are for facts. Real, right?

Cristina: Yeah.

Jack: Like, I'll probably hunt one down. We'll make that a mission. We'll add them to the collection of f******. What do we have so far? F****** werewolves and reptilian vampires. And vampires. We got a bunch of s***. Imprisoned.

Cristina: Yeah.

Jack: On Mars.

Cristina: We want to find if banshees can haunt people that aren't related to Irish.

Jack: Yes.

Cristina: So that.

Jack: That'll be interesting to see a banshee for now.

Cristina: Alright. Because some first. For now it's only been people from Ireland or. Yeah. That have some blood in Ireland that they hunt.

Jack: That's so weird. I'm curious. A banshee is a really weird creature. It really is. Because it's like a person, but also not.

Cristina: It's not a person.

Jack: Yeah. Because like you're saying in Irish culture a banshee is a leprechaun.

Cristina: Not a leprechaun.

Jack: A fairy.

Cristina: A fairy? Yes.

Jack: Okay. It's a fairy.

Cristina: Yes.

Jack: In Irish culture the banshee is a fairy.

Cristina: Yes. The best description is a spirit. But to me it seems like spirit could equal fairy. Could equal whatever.

Jack: Yeah. Because they're used almost interchangeably.

Cristina: Yeah. So that's why I'm not sure what she is.

Jack: So when we get to her, it's kind of vague. Because a woman died and became a banshee.

Cristina: Yes. In this story. Yeah. Or the banshee haunts where the woman died. And it's not the woman.

Jack: Interesting.

Cristina: Yep.

Jack: Interest. Holy crap. That's kind of fascinating. Wow. So it could either be that people turn into banshees or.

Cristina: I never thought that people could turn into banshees in. With these things. It seems like these creatures in Ireland are separate things. They're not human. Yeah. They're their own species.

Jack: Enter the shadow realm, a place where there is a part of people that naturally exists. And upon crossing the threshold, that was still the person, but it's also not. So is the banshee a tortured soul from the shadow realm that crossed over. So maybe it was that woman's spirit. Yeah, but the shadow realm version, maybe. Intense emotion, fear, and all these things that are required for a creature from the shadow realm to manifest were all present at the death of this person and maybe lingers in there as people know about the story and create the fear that allows the banshee to continue manifesting on this side.

Cristina: Yeah.

Jack: It is her tortured soul from the other side.

Cristina: Yeah.

Jack: Although she died somehow, her soul didn't die. Maybe adrenochrome isn't the only way.

Cristina: Yes, maybe adrenochrome is, but then that would mean like all the emotions and feelings and stuff are somehow part of it.

Jack: Yeah. Because we know that people extract adrenochrome or whatever they're getting that keeps them alive from the fear itself.

Cristina: Yeah.

Jack: Where they don't need the adrenal chrome. So if you get enough of that all in one shot. Is that what a haunting soul is? Like a spirit that's left behind? Right. And you're haunting a place. That's your version. That's your spirit that's from the shadow realm.

Cristina: Yeah.

Jack: That came through. But why? It's usually because you were killed brutally or some. Some horrible thing happened, except your soul couldn't fade away. The crazy amount of emotion, fear, sadness, all those things existed at the moment of your death and tethered your soul to that.

Cristina: But it's still. The Banshee is very different from regular ghosts because it's. It's only here to warn you. Like someone's about to die, which regular ghosts don't really do anything.

Jack: Or Spirit. Yeah, because ghost is an spirit.

Cristina: Okay.

Jack: Regular spirit or shadow person.

Cristina: Yeah. As far as we can tell, they're not any type of warning sign. They're not going to tell you anything. Thing about the future.

Jack: Yeah. They're not there intentionally. They're just echoing through. Or if they.

Cristina: The banshee is more like the groundhog?

Jack: Yeah, it's more like the groundhog. It's there for information of some sort. But my question is, is it choosing to, or is it a reflex? Is the Banshee incapable, capable of telling.

Cristina: People that it's someone they know is about to die?

Jack: Yes. Do you know?

Cristina: Yeah.

Jack: Like, do they have to do it even if they didn't want to? They're just somewhere where death is. And they scream at death.

Cristina: Yeah.

Jack: But then again, if we think of the Shadow Realm. Again, not to stay on the Shadow Realm topic. The reapers also call the Shadow Realm.

Cristina: Other realm, because that's what this is in this place now, I guess.

Jack: So the other Realm, the reaper comes from the other realm. And the Reaper handles life. It is a delivery mechanism in the form of a physical being.

Cristina: Mm.

Jack: And maybe the Banshee is terrified of the Reaper. Of the Reaper. Because it's always maybe coming for the Banshee.

Cristina: She's warning about the Reaper then.

Jack: I don't think she's warning anybody.

Cristina: She's just horrified. Of the Reaper?

Jack: Yes, because that's a lingering tethered soul to the wrong side. And the Reaper delivers souls.

Cristina: I don't know. But I think this third story might change our mind a little bit about that. Because in the third situation of a Banshee haunting a man because his daughter was gonna die, but he didn't know that she was healthy, strong, and beautiful. And then one night, he heard a voice coming from his window, and it said. Which is weird. Like, they usually just cry. And it was crying too, but it also said, in three weeks, death. In three weeks, the grave. Dead, dead, dead. That's what he heard. And then the next day, his daughter got sick or was showing symptoms of a fever. And then three weeks later, dead.

Jack: Interesting. Interesting. So it was a warning.

Cristina: It was a real warning of, like, I know what's gonna happen.

Jack: It's not that they're seeing death actively in the area, even if other people can't, because they themselves are ethereal and seeing other ethereal beings.

Cristina: Yeah.

Jack: It's that they're seeing the future.

Cristina: Yes. Like, maybe it does see death coming, but it knows, like, specific.

Jack: Oh, my God. We're missing one thing that you mentioned earlier.

Cristina: What?

Jack: And then I specified earlier, time works differently on the other side. So maybe from this side they're saying, death is coming, but it takes crazy long here. But from that side's point of view, it's immediate. He's approaching quick. But it could be weeks.

Cristina: Yeah. Even though this one is specific. Or maybe he remembers it as it being super specific.

Jack: Maybe they were super specific. Maybe the person the banshee telling the information knew specifically the. The conversion rate of time.

Cristina: Oh, okay.

Jack: And was like. Well, it takes them about three hours on this side, so we'll say like three weeks.

Cristina: Yeah. So like banshees may know the time difference equivalent of what's going on. Okay.

Jack: Just a possibility.

Cristina: Yeah. Yeah. Interesting. And then there's the Fear Gorda. And Fear Gordas look like zombies. Actually. I think they are zombies, but we're just gonna. Well, they're like zombies from like old fashioned zombie movies. Like they're. They got bones popping out of their body. They're like super thin, they have bluish skin and their flesh is rotting.

Jack: Yeah. So it sounds like a zombie from an old school interpretation of a zombie, but like a freaking God decided to look like this s***. It was like f****** reason for it though.

Cristina: During famines it comes around and it asks for food. It asks people for food who are already dying in a famine. But if you give him the food, he'll reward you with. But if you give him food, he'll reward you with a lifelong wealth and prosperity. And those who don't give him food will have bad luck and poverty.

Jack: Sounds pretty badass. So he's testing the morality of people.

Cristina: Yes. In the worst situation, in the life and death situation, because it's a famine.

Jack: So you're starving. I'm starving. Do you care about others? Can you.

Cristina: That's a true test. That sounds very godly.

Jack: Yeah, that's very noble.

Cristina: Yeah.

Jack: He's testing a real person. Like, do you remain a good person in the worst of circumstances?

Cristina: Yes.

Jack: Then you deserve good things.

Cristina: Yes. That's pretty interesting. Yeah. And then there are stories. There's two. There's like. Okay, I'll say. There's like three stories of these creatures that are very vampire. Like the author of Dracula might have based it on these creatures because he's Irish.

Jack: Interesting.

Cristina: But he also liked folklore, so. And he did travel, so he of course also based on other famous vampires and stories.

Jack: Transylvanian legends and whatnot.

Cristina: Yeah, yeah. So the first one is called the Avatar, the evil Irish magical dwarf king who was like. He was just pretty evil. And he killed. He was killed and buried standing up. And then the next day he came back from the grave and used his magical powers to be even more crueler than he was before. And he loves to drink the blood of his victims, of course. And there's only one way to stop him. You must kill him. And Bury him upside down. Very vampirey.

Jack: Very vampirey. Including all the weird ways to get rid of them and crap.

Cristina: Yes. The second vampire is a lady, and she is called the Red Bloodsucker. She's known as the Red Bloodsucker. She seduces men and then drains their blood. One of the stories about how she became a vampire was that she was in love with some poor peasant dude, and her father didn't like that, so he made her marry some rich dude who treated her terrible. And then eventually she committed suicide. But then she came back to get revenge on her father and her husband, and she sucked their blood until they were dead. And then now she does that once.

Jack: A year to random people.

Cristina: To random people.

Jack: She's Jeeper Scrapers.

Cristina: Well, to men, specifically. She wants men.

Jack: Oh, so she's a succubus.

Cristina: She's a Succubus. Well, yeah, but she's a vampire. And there is only one way to, quote, unquote, defeat her, because it's not really to defeat her. Like, what, did you compare her to a succubus? No, before that. Jeepers Creepers.

Jack: Jeepers Creepers.

Cristina: To stop her is like, Jeepers Creepers. You don't really defeat her. You put rocks on her grave and then she can't get up.

Jack: Yeah. You just enable her.

Cristina: Yeah. For only a year, and then she'll try to get out, and then you got to put some more rocks.

Jack: She sounds very Jeepers Creepers.

Cristina: Yeah. So maybe Jeepers Creepers was inspired by some Dracula stories or.

Jack: No, it was actually inspired by a song.

Cristina: By a song. Oh, yeah.

Jack: But that song could have used not only the song, but it could have been like a mesh of this story, a song, and a bunch of other crap to make. Because Jeepers Creeper is a scary m***********.

Cristina: Yeah. But that whole coming back every 23 years, or whatever it was isn't from the song, though.

Jack: No.

Cristina: No. So like, maybe that was inspired by this type of story. Yeah. And then the third vampire, like, person or demon? This one's more. This is a fairy vampire, and her name is Lennon Sid. I think that's how her name is said. And she's a demon that likes to inspire poets and musicians. But once they. Once they make the thing that they're gonna make, I guess she drinks their blood, she shares with them her intelligence, creativity, and magic. But when she leaves, the men go into a deep depression and they die. Then she will take her dead lovers back to her lair. And then, rather sucking their blood, she puts their blood into a Giant red cauldron, which is the source of her beauty and artistic inspiration.

Jack: Fantastic.

Cristina: Yep. So to prevent her from rising, you have to also put stones on her resting place.

Jack: Interesting, Interesting. So definitely a vampire, too.

Cristina: Yeah, she's a fairy vampire, which I guess the dwarf guy is a fairy vampire because dwarves are fairies. But then the second lady, she's just a vampire. She was human, and then she became a vampire.

Jack: So we're back to the same problem of the difference between a spirit and a fairy.

Cristina: Yes. Yes. That's why it's all so complicated. And I'm not really sure what is. What if they're all the same or if they're not the same or whatever. Where's the lines?

Jack: Yeah. Cause it seems like they do blur.

Cristina: Yes. And then the last creature, because there's so many creatures. But I'm just gonna stop at this one. It's called the Questing Beast. It is a cool creature. It's also an evil creature who has the head of a snake, the body of a leopard, the backside of a lion, and the hooves of a deer. And its cries. Its sound. The sound it makes sounds like the cry it makes sounds like the bark.

Jack: Of 30 dogs all at once simultaneously.

Cristina: Yes. And I think it's called the Questing Beast because many knights have tried to defeat this beast. I don't know if any has succeeded.

Jack: But so they go out of their way. It's an accomplishment. They're trying to do status thing. If I defeat it, I am a legend.

Cristina: Yes.

Jack: Okay, so it's a western dragon again. You go defeat the dragon for the status now. It will be the best knight ever. Everybody will know. And so the Questing Beast is the same idea.

Cristina: That's the same thing.

Jack: Very interesting. It sounds like a Pokemon.

Cristina: It sounds like they'll turn this into a Pokemon someday.

Jack: Yeah, fair enough. Then again, they don't make Pokemon out of animals anymore. It's sooner that you'll have, like, microphone. The Pokemon. There probably is a microphone Pokemon. I'm pretty sure that's a thing already.

Cristina: No, not yet.

Jack: I think that's. There's a microphone Pokemon.

Cristina: That's the next evolution. I mean, the next season or whatever.

Jack: There's a Pokemon. It's called, like, Mikey or something.

Cristina: No, it's not Mikey.

Jack: Yeah, man. There's totally a microphone Pokemon. Oh, my God. What is it? What the h*** is that thing? Is that a real Pokemon?

Cristina: I think that's fan. A fan art. Because there is a Pokemon that has different forms that looks like that, and that's what they're making fun of, I think.

Jack: Okay, fair enough.

Cristina: But we could double check. Look, his name is Rotom, the voice form. Okay, let's see what Rotom's different forms are, though. Okay, so he's Rotom.

Jack: Could be a frigerator, f****** lawnmower. Modem, a laundry. He could be a washing machine. He could be a grill. He could be a fridge, a freaking fan. And what the h*** is that other one?

Cristina: This one? This one. The original, I guess, is just, like, normal electricity. Yeah. And then he. Yeah, he turns into things that need electricity.

Jack: Bro, what the h*** is going on with Pokemon?

Cristina: Close enough. You're right. There's a microphone.

Jack: There totally isn't, but there should totally be a microphone.

Cristina: Look at him. He's a Pokedex.

Jack: Oh, my God.

Cristina: So there's fan art of, like, the many different things he could probably turn into. If you can be these things, there's probably a limited, unlimited possibility of what he could actually turn into.

Jack: Freaking Rotom.

Cristina: As long as they're electric. I mean, electronical, right? Yeah, like a computer.

Jack: That makes perfect sense. But it's like, why is this a freaking Pokemon? A blender. A toaster.

Cristina: I'm not sure what this one's supposed to be.

Jack: Where's the other one? Next to it.

Cristina: That one?

Jack: No, the one that's a toaster. What the h*** is that?

Cristina: No idea. Okay, so people are getting really creative of what this should look like. What?

Jack: Freaking Rotom, bro.

Cristina: Yes, I would like to see Quest Beast as a Pokemon.

Jack: That'd be cool. Questy. Questy Equestrian.

Cristina: Oh, that's a cool name.

Jack: Yeah, yeah. Yeah, it is a cool name.

Cristina: Well, that was awesome. And there's a lot of creatures in Ireland. Ridiculous. That place is popular.

Jack: Yes, but what has made me interested about everything you've talked about is really digging into a banshee. Yeah, like, at this point, we've become the new Sam and Dean. They're off air. They're. They're. They're living their lives. We still hunting? S***, they stopped. We're still going. We're still hunting.

Cristina: Yeah, they're the ones that taught us.

Jack: Yeah, except we have a freaking army of subhumans provided by the Chinese cloning program. Yeah, which is totally fine. Look, it's totally fine. Actually, it's not the cloning program. We're the clones. It's all the aborted babies.

Cristina: The aborted babies make the.

Jack: The subhumans.

Cristina: Okay.

Jack: Aborted babies equal an army of subhumans that are superior because they're genetically engineered and then turn into Superhumans that then we use to hunt these creat like the ones in Ireland. And now I am fascinated by a banshee.

Cristina: Except that these creatures have. Are really secretive and they can hide and stuff. And like, I don't know. Finding a banshee really hard.

Jack: I'll figure it out, okay? I will figure out finding a banshee.

Cristina: Well, that's gonna be fun.

Jack: It's gonna be astounding. I will find the banshee by any means necessary.

Cristina: All right?

Jack: I promise. That much.

Cristina: I can't wait.

Jack: Yes. It's gonna be exciting.

Cristina: Yes.

Jack: Anyways, if you guys enjoyed this conversation and many conversations of this nature already exist on this show, that you can go find those locations would be to find them on the official website, greathoughts.info Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and anywhere else you get your podcasts.

Cristina: And you can reach us on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram and TikTok. UsConvopod.

Jack: Yes. And remember to subscribe, rate, and review.

Cristina: The show and let someone who might like this show know about it.

Jack: Yes. Word of mouth. It's totally amazing. Scream at people as if you were a banshee and tell them, hey, you're gonna love that. And they're gonna be like, yeah, I will. And you're like, yeah, cool. Scream with me. And then they'll scream with you. You should do that to random people on the street. Because they love it.

Cristina: They love it.

Jack: They love it.

Cristina: This has been the Just Conversation podcast. Take nothing personal. And thanks for listening. Bye.

Jack: Kekken Apheos. Go on. Hang in hand.

Cristina: And that's what KEK is all about.

Jack: Chaos. Yeah. Embracing chaos. It's a natural part of everything. But so is order. And having order and reason and logic. In no moment does Kek's chaos interfere with Pastafarianism. Logic. The goal is be reasonable. Same thing with Kek. You control, but you don't hurt people.

Cristina: Because it's just a joke.

Jack: It's just a joke. If you're crossing the line, you're f****** up.

Cristina: Yeah.

Jack: You're doing it wrong.

Cristina: Yeah.

Jack: It's not about hurting other people. It's about that balance of you can have fun. Some people are gonna get annoyed.

Cristina: Mm.

Jack: But they should know that they're getting annoyed at a joke.

Cristina: It's so weird how anything could have a religion. Thinking of Shaggy. Shaggy. The church of Shaggy.

Jack: Yeah. What happens with Shaggy is the idea that destruction is equal to creation. So not only do we maintain balance, but we need to understand that sometimes things. A good example is, as writers, we often have to get rid of something and destroy something because it's just not working out. It's the weak link in what we're trying to do. And sometimes you're attached to the idea, but the story isn't attached to the idea.

Cristina: I usually just remove them. I don't delete them or anything.

Jack: Well, you can remove them, put them somewhere else, but you're destroying the concept you were working with to change it for something else.

Cristina: Yeah.

Jack: And that just goes hand in hand with. To maintain balance, you must destroy sometimes.

Cristina: That's an interesting way to see it. Yeah.

Jack: Shaggy is important.

Cristina: He is.

Jack: He's important in everything. You must destroy in order to create their hand in hand.

Jack: Have you ever wondered who controls the money, who controls the companies, who controls the government, and who controls the people? Find out all that and more on this episode of Just Conversation.

Cristina: Warning. This program contains strong themes meant for a mature audience. Discretion is advised.

Jack: Going live in 5, 4.

Cristina: What does live mean?

Jack: Welcome to the Just Conversation podcast, the show where we ground humanity's most absurd and baffling ideas in childish ways. I'm your host, Jack.

Cristina: And I'm your host, Christina.

Jack: And if you haven't yet, remember to hit that subscribe button to get notified the second new episodes are released.

Cristina: Also, this show is most enjoyable with a listening partner to share opinions and ideas on topics we discuss.

Jack: Yes. So you grab somebody, you sit them the f*** down, and you tell them, I'm the one in control here.

Cristina: Why does it have to be like that?

Jack: I am the one who's in control. You've. Why. Why can't they just ask kindly?

Cristina: Yeah, it's never just a. Okay, could you. You. You might be interested in this. Why don't you just listen to it with me?

Jack: Why would you ask somebody to kindly listen to the show with you when you can make somebody reluctant? Listen. If somebody is already willing to listen to the show, that's fine. They're probably gonna stumble on the show. You need to force somebody who wasn't willing. Bigger audience.

Cristina: Okay.

Jack: More people. Those who want and those who don't.

Cristina: Want and those who don't want will probably not listen again or.

Jack: But they heard we got the view. We're paid, bro. Oh, that's how it goes.

Cristina: Helping us out?

Jack: Yeah. All those listens pay off. So, yeah, you sit them down. You're like, I'm the one in m************ control here. I control what you do, when you do it, how you f*** it. I'm the government. From this point forward, you. You gotta listen when I say listen, or I gotta tax you.

Cristina: Then what's the tax money? They're gonna make you pay them for forcing you to listen to them.

Jack: Yeah. If you don't listen. Yeah. If you don't listen, you gotta pay. And then that money makes it to us. We're secretly taxing them. We're part of the government. We were for the Illuminati, I guess. We're not part of the government.

Cristina: We're not.

Jack: No, we're part of the Illuminati. We're like an agency that's superior to the government who's trying to bring truth to the people. The woke. Truth to the people.

Cristina: Who's bringing the truth Us or the government?

Jack: Us. Like, the government wants to offer truth?

Cristina: Yes.

Jack: Only the Illuminati wants to offer truth. None of these government agencies or political officials are telling anybody the truth. They're all just trying to con the people and manipulate the people and control the people. Man. The man just wants to control you. Man.

Cristina: Yes. All the men in the government, though.

Jack: None of the women though. Just the men.

Cristina: Oh, okay. Just the Man.

Jack: Yeah. Like they're gonna give women power.

Cristina: Then why are there women in the government?

Jack: So that they can con the people into thinking that the people's. It's. It's the red pill. You give them the blue pill. Oh, the government's control. No, wait. The blue pill. No. Oh, s***. That's weird.

Cristina: Mm.

Jack: Because the blue pill is the government's. Fine. It's a functional system.

Cristina: It's perfect.

Jack: And then the people who are like, oh, but the government's f*****, and you're being lied to. And you're a g****** she. Those people. Those people get the. Hey, look, your vote put a woman in office. I guess it's working now, right? And you're like, yeah, I made that happen. And so you ate the red pill. You're like, yeah, this new reality is the real reality. And I'm not a sheep.

Cristina: Still suck. But I'm telling. What, the telling the government?

Jack: Yes. That illusion. I'm in control. My vote made it my soul. Vote changed everything.

Cristina: Yes.

Jack: And that's totally not the. Because you ate the red pill, bro. It was given to you by the same people who gave you the blue pill.

Cristina: Then what's the reality?

Jack: The red pill brought to you by the makers of the blue pill. Like, what the f***?

Cristina: Who. What's the truth?

Jack: The truth is the government is shafting you no matter what the f*** you do. The government doesn't work for you.

Cristina: They should, but they're just people, so are they also just hurting themselves as well?

Jack: Who? The government?

Cristina: Yeah.

Jack: No, because they're using tax money to fill their pockets. They're not hurting themselves. What are they doing? They're taking the money they put in into their own pocket. Again, they pay no tax. If you work for the government, you technically pay no tax because you're putting.

Cristina: Away the money that you're getting back later.

Jack: You said any branch of the government gets paid by taxpayer money.

Cristina: Yes.

Jack: Every branch, all of it. 100% you% pay no tax. By working for the government, you immediately pay no tax. If you're a political official, like an officer, they pay no tax.

Cristina: Mm.

Jack: Community hospitals, they pay no tax, none of those deals. Those people are all paid by the government. Meaning the tax they pay from their.

Cristina: Check is our money.

Jack: Yeah, that goes back to their own pocket. They took money and then put a little of it back, but they still took the money out of the tax. So while politicians, on the other hand, they take giant sums because they can shuffle the money until it disappears. And it's like, oh, well, we distributed some over there, some over here, some over there. This one went through those hoops to get into that hoop to enter this system that was supposed to go for that thing, but then that thing needed, you know, this, this and that. So we have to break that up.

Cristina: Ozark or something.

Jack: Yeah, you're just like, yeah, it's a giant money laundering scheme where you're just mixing the money over here, passing it over there, moving it through here, it gets over there, and suddenly it ended up in your pocket. And nobody can explain how because we can't follow that mess you created.

Cristina: Yeah, no one's investigating.

Jack: Nobody's invest. And when they do, they get removed and replaced by somebody who's gonna do it better. That's all it is. We don't control the f****** government. No, we don't control the f****** government. You know who does control the government, though? Lobbyists.

Cristina: Lobbyists. That's company people.

Jack: Company people. Company people who go and make laws. That controls the government. Not f****** we. We don't control the government. The government simply wants us to think we control the government. That's the f****** red pill that the matrix gave us.

Cristina: Okay?

Jack: Yes, the illusion is we're in control, man. For the people who are like, the government works. And no, we don't have to control it. It works the way it needs to, but. But then there's a red poll. The government's supposed to respond to us, bro. And if it doesn't, it's not functional. And it's like, we need to rise and vote and s***. And then you vote and s***. And you just voted somebody from a list that they gave you, but you think it was your list because you voted, but they gave you the list of people to vote from.

Cristina: Mm, sucks.

Jack: Yeah. You're choosing out of the people we prefer. Which one do you want in office?

Cristina: These are our two favorite picks up here.

Jack: Yeah, these are the two people we think should be running on top. Which one of them would you like? Here, here, we'll throw you a choice. And it's like, I couldn't choose who made it all the way up there. No, no, no, no, no. And you know what's weird? How does this even get selected? Right, so we have like the, let's say the presidency. Right? We have a presidency race.

Cristina: Yes.

Jack: And we have people who are fighting, arguing or whatever and debating and s***. When they, they run out of f****** like, oh, I'm dropping out.

Cristina: Mm, right.

Jack: Why are they dropping out? Based on what did they just f****** run out of?

Cristina: Who? We didn't vote yet cuz they already assume they're losing.

Jack: Favored yet, man.

Cristina: Yes.

Jack: What you just dropping out cuz someone.

Cristina: Paid them to drop out or are.

Jack: They running out of money? Like I don't. Dude, what the f***?

Cristina: What about all those other people who don't go to the base debates? Is only a two party thing.

Jack: That's weird, right? Other parties, they only want you to see these two people, our two candidates. You make a choice between our two.

Cristina: Candidates and ignore the other.

Jack: Like everybody.

Cristina: 10 people.

Jack: It's like a million parties.

Cristina: Yeah. And they show it to us on you.

Jack: Oh, we don't f****** know who they are. Yeah, they made sure we only know two people.

Cristina: Unless you like dig deep, I guess.

Jack: But how a country isn't gonna do that. They're relying on a laziness of a country. That's the whole goal. They're relying on people being lazy and not doing the homework. That's why they only show you the people they want you to know about.

Cristina: Yes, man. The laziness wins out. That's the whole like people are like going crazy over how this. Most people voted. How did like how has it increased this much? Did people start caring or something and it's like, nah, they got it home. It's easier. It's laziness.

Jack: Yeah. They mailed you the ballot and it showed up on your doorstep.

Cristina: Yeah. And then you just had to mail it out or put it in a box. Like it's so much easier than standing in a line, signing yourself in, waiting some more, etc.

Jack: Yeah, it got done for you.

Cristina: Yes.

Jack: That's f****** weird. People are lazy as h***. And that's how the government. The government knows this.

Cristina: That were lazy. Yeah, but aren't they lazy? I guess not. Because they have a drive, which is that money.

Jack: Yeah, the government has a financial drive. That's all they care about. The government only cares about money. Everybody only cares about money.

Cristina: And the lobbyists though, well, the lobbyists.

Jack: Also care about money. They just need the right laws to.

Cristina: Make their s*** work to make them more money.

Jack: Yeah, it's all about money.

Cristina: So the money rules the world.

Jack: Sort of. The lobbyists are ruled by the companies. Usually they are the people who are paid by a company to go do a thing, go convince the f******.

Cristina: Then the companies rule the world.

Jack: Well, then that becomes a problem because the people control the money.

Jack: It's. Nobody owns anybody. Everybody's somebody's b**** in a perfect circle.

Cristina: Yeah.

Jack: It goes like this. The people control the money. The money controls the companies. The companies control the government. The government controls the people.

Cristina: And the people control who? What?

Jack: The companies.

Cristina: The companies.

Jack: Well, they control the money, which controls the.

Cristina: They control them. Yes. Okay. Yes.

Jack: The money flow comes from the people, the everyday people.

Cristina: Yes.

Jack: And the money controls the companies.

Cristina: Mm.

Jack: Companies will do whatever the f***.

Cristina: Like Barry washing us through ads. Ads everywhere. Ads. 24. 7.

Jack: Yeah. 100%. And they need to be on our good side. If we become aware of anything, they have to react and be on the side of the majority. Always. 100%. Jeff Bezos, perfect example. We said he'd go out and shoot somebody the moment that his money was threatened and his money was threatened. And what's the first thing he did? He went outside and he popped the m*********** in the head.

Cristina: He did not really do that, but he did something close, you know?

Jack: Yeah. Somebody said, we're not gonna use your system because you. You. You haven't taken a stance because you're.

Cristina: What was the.

Jack: Well, he hadn't sided with anybody yet. He had a. Like, did he even have a banner? No, they didn't have anything. Right. They made no stand. So black people were like, nah, we're not doing this. And then he was like, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait. No, no, no, no, no. I'm. Pick a side. I'll pick a side. I'm on your side.

Cristina: So you waited for someone to be.

Jack: Angry, and then when he put the Black lives thing, because people were like, well, now's the moment to make a stand. Whoever the f*** you are, whatever company you're running, you make a stand. Or you. If you don't stand with us, you. You're against us. And he wasn't making a stand until people were like, Amazon doesn't seem to want to pick a side, so we're just going to stop using that. He was like, wait, hold the f*** up. I'm on Black Lives Matter. And then that's when the other people showed up. And it's like, you're the minority. Kiss a**. When he. When he released the message in return. Because first it was people boycotting anybody who didn't want to participate.

Cristina: Yeah.

Jack: And then that's when he was like, okay, banners, Black Lives Matter.

Cristina: Yes.

Jack: But then the f****** people who thinks Black Lives Matter is racist showed up.

Cristina: Yes.

Jack: And they were like, well, we don't support Black Lives Matter, so we're gonna stop using your platform. And then he replied, go kiss a**, cuz you're the minority and your money doesn't mean anything.

Cristina: Yes. That's awful.

Jack: That's awful. But you gotta be wherever the money ends.

Cristina: And that's all he did.

Jack: That's all he did. He sided with money because he's controlled by the money. Amazon is owned by the money. Buy the money. And if the money isn't there, Amazon is garbage. And this applies to every company in the world. Money runs the company and the people run the money. You please the people or f*** your s***. Yeah, but if they can influence the government who controls the people, then they can get a little bit of leeway. That's why Facebook is in deep s***. Because Facebook did not please the people.

Cristina: No. Especially after everything came out.

Jack: Yes. Facebook illegal s***.

Cristina: Yeah.

Jack: And because it was elite, had Facebook done it legally through the government the way other companies do to always be in the clear. But Facebook didn't want to put out the money. Facebook wants all the money.

Cristina: Yeah.

Jack: And because they didn't put out the money to bribe the government to legislate s***.

Jack: Then it wasn't law, meaning what they did was illegal. And when the people found that illegal s*** was happening, Facebook loses money.

Cristina: But that's because the government investigated it. Because they were like, we want this. We don't want you to have it anymore. We want this information for ourselves. If we just tell the people about this, then it's ours.

Jack: You think that's what happened?

Cristina: Yeah.

Jack: Did the government want the information? The government already has access to all this s***.

Cristina: Well, they don't want it with everyone. They want every company to give them the stuff. They weren't happy that Facebook wasn't giving them whatever, so they did that.

Jack: No, that's not true.

Cristina: That's not true.

Jack: That's not true. Apple doesn't give anybody s***. That's not true by any means. The government would be falling down on Apple like a ton of bricks if that was the case.

Cristina: Yeah.

Jack: There are people who are Apple loyalists and they are dedicated and every penny they spend is through an Apple product in Apple systems, buying Macs and iPhones and this s*** dash s*** and f****** earpods and crap. So if that was the case, Apple would be shafted.

Cristina: Yeah.

Jack: So it's not. It's simply that the government is ruled by the lobbyists. The lobbyists that did force the laws to get made. There were. None of. None of them were from Facebook and none of those laws were assisting Facebook. And the government needs to keep the illusion that it's following the laws and enforcing the laws. And Facebook did something in plain sight. It was discovered. So now the government needs to keep face and attack. It doesn't give a f***. Pay us and we'll let it go. But now it's in the light. You can't just pay us anymore because had it been law, we would have been like, it's perfectly legal. You got caught, but it's legal. Who cares? But you got caught and you didn't pay us to make it legal. So now you can't pay us. Now you're already f*****. It's in the light. If you suddenly pay us now, it's obvious. The illusion fades and we need to keep the lie that the people control us. So we have to behave like the people are controlling us.

Cristina: And what exactly are they doing, though?

Jack: They're getting. They're probably gonna destroy Facebook, to be honest. But they're making Facebook share its information. That's definitely what is happening. But they're not making Apple share its information. It's not really about the information. It's about Facebook didn't make it legal first.

Cristina: Yes.

Jack: And Facebook is losing money because it didn't follow the trend. It didn't do it didn't play the game. Facebook didn't play the game and wanted to win. And that's not how you win. You got to play to win.

Cristina: You got to play to win. You got to follow this step.

Jack: You got to follow the step. Facebook didn't pay off the government. The government has no reason to be loyal to Facebook.

Cristina: And we are still in charge somehow of all this.

Jack: We rule Facebook because we're the money. We could just be like, nah, we're not going to invest in any company. And preemptively. People didn't boycott s***. They're just like, we're going to stop advertising on your platform so that we're not associated with your fall.

Cristina: You see, because the people.

Jack: Exactly. Because your partners with Facebook. Oh, oh, really? We'll just stop using your s*** too. Then they preemptively in mass. They were like, yeah. They're like, peace, bro. F*** yo. S***.

Cristina: Yes.

Jack: So money controlled all the companies that were advertising through Facebook and Facebook loses money because it didn't want to play the game.

Cristina: How dare they.

Jack: Meanwhile, Amazon tyrannical destroys everything in the world. This small business is crushed under its weight. But also they play the game.

Cristina: Yeah, that's him. But don't people still have a problem with them?

Jack: Yes, because we know they're schemy, but you can't do anything because they make it all legal.

Cristina: But doesn't the government want to break them apart?

Jack: Well, they think the company is too powerful. There's a difference between the power of Amazon and the corruption of Facebook. Those are two very different monsters. Facebook is corrupted. Facebook is broken. Facebook uses user data and sells it without user knowledge. Yes, now they let people know. But you've already been doing it illegally for so long. There's already a trial about all the time before you let anybody know.

Cristina: They're still going to get in trouble for all this.

Jack: They're still in trouble. They f***** up all the other companies the moment they saw it happen. What did they do? Wait, we're gonna make everybody aware of everything? Every.

Cristina: They were involved. They were the ones. Are they? They were the ones that were paying Facebook for this info?

Jack: Yeah. H*** yeah.

Cristina: Like they're just pretending we had nothing to do with it?

Jack: Yeah, for the most part. Well, advertisers. Yeah, advertisers. Okay, so retailers and s*** like that. Those are the same people who pulled out, the people who were buying the s*** that Facebook was selling. Those are the people who pulled out.

Cristina: Of Facebook, but they're not giving out that information.

Jack: The government, I mean, as plain as day, who were they selling it to? The advertisers. Who were the advertisers? The people who f****** love Facebook.

Cristina: Okay, so no one else is paying attention that they're just boycotting Facebook and out these other companies who left before.

Jack: Well, let's think of it like this. You're walking down the street and you couldn't buy your daughter some shoes. There were some brand new shoes she loved and you don't have the right money and it was $200. You're like, we can't afford that. A crackhead pulls up and he opens a box and he's like, hey, I got some shoes for sale. And he opens a box and they happen to be the right size. The exact shoe your daughter wanted. And he's like, you could have it for $10. Then I get just wants crack. That guy just wants crack. That dude just wants some crack. Just let him have his crack. What are you gonna do? You can probably buy those shoes. Yeah, you can look at them. Is this real? Is it? Holy s***. It is all labels, right? It's in perfect condition. Doesn't look worn. He's like, yeah, it's never been used before. He clearly stole those shoes. But also, who's ever gonna be able to track that? Nobody. You just have shoes now. Are you not gonna buy the. No, you can buy the shoes. Does anybody give a f*** where you found. Nobody gives a f*** where you found those shoes. You clearly own stolen shoes. Yeah, but does anybody give a s***? No. That crackhead stole somebody. He has to go to jail, though. He stole those shoes. He has to go to jail. If he gets caught, he goes to jail. You bought something. The crackhead is Facebook.

Cristina: Okay.

Jack: You are the retailer.

Cristina: Oh, okay.

Jack: You bought stolen s***. Yeah, but like, everybody else would have.

Cristina: Mm.

Jack: You didn't steal it. You just bought some s***. You bought it fairly. It was stolen. That doesn't seem like it's your problem.

Cristina: Because you could just say, I didn't know.

Jack: I didn't know. We thought this was all done properly. We made a deal that we can have data. They come up with. We didn't ask how you're getting your data. Yes, we were just getting data. We thought, you know, they. They run surveys and this and that. No, they're just stealing information. Oh, I'm so surpr. Yeah, that's how it works. Facebook wasn't playing the game. Facebook's f*****. Amazon plays the game. They play a nice game to the point that they're kind of unbeatable. Google plays the game.

Cristina: Ooh, there's no problem with Google. Google's fine.

Jack: Well, Google people hate that. Google can control its directory. It chooses what could go up there whenever the f*** it wants. The problem is, if you read those.

Cristina: Terms and services, that's what it can do. So it can reserve.

Jack: Yep. It reserves the right to delist whatever the f*** it wants, whenever the f*** it wants, however the f*** it wants, without warning, you use it knowing.

Cristina: And so the government can't do anything about that.

Jack: Nope.

Cristina: They can't just change the laws.

Jack: No. The problem with Facebook is they were lying about it. They weren't making it known publicly. All these other companies just read. Not only that, all these other companies have a simplified version of their complicated contract so that you can read it in simpler terms. If you scroll to the bottoms of terms and services, a lot of these have a revised version that you just click, and it's a shorter bullet point. Usually what they. Well, nowadays, that's usually what they show you first, and you can click for detailed version of it, but they give you now the bullet points. So that people can comprehend it instead of this giant 3,000 page thing. Exactly. So now they give you the bullet point one instead of putting it behind a million walls to trick you.

Cristina: Finally.

Jack: Yeah.

Cristina: So that's the one good thing.

Jack: Yeah. Because nobody wants to be guilty. Everybody wants to play. Play the game. Boom. Boom.

Cristina: And we made that game.

Jack: We made that game through capitalism. We're consumers. It's a culture of consumerism. And so money controls the companies. Companies use the money to pay the lobbyists. Lobbyists use some of that money to control the government. And government changes its laws to control the people so that companies get paid.

Cristina: How can we use this information against the government?

Jack: How do we use this information against the government?

Cristina: Yeah, I guess if there are people who are really like, I need to do something.

Jack: Threaten rich people money. You can control the government if you control the companies. And you do control the companies. So for us, the companies, the problem is people are. It relies on the fact that people are consumers and people are lazy and consumerism is based on convenience.

Cristina: So they're gonna follow that company whether or not it's doing.

Jack: Yeah. The chain can't be broken. It naturally happened. Nobody was like, well, I'm gonna formulate it this way. There's no individual who made the system. System is just customs and behaviors that naturally fell into place and created what we're in.

Cristina: Mm. But sometimes we get together and change things ourselves.

Jack: Yes. When we force certain things to happen. We boycott enough companies, they're like, bro, I'm losing people on both sides. I can't be picking sides forever. We need to legislate some s*** that makes both sides happy so that we can get this s*** over with and I can get all the customers instead of f****** some of them. So we're gonna pay some lobbyists to go and force a law that is just down the middle enough that both sides are happy and my business doesn't suffer. And these are what the titans like Amazon and Google and Apple and all these m************ do they pay lobbyists to do those things that keeps their companies in the center.

Cristina: Yes. So I guess that's good, isn't it?

Jack: Yeah, it is good.

Cristina: It makes everybody happy until we're taking advantage of.

Jack: Well, we're taking advantage of. Because of something we haven't thought of yet. They find another hole, and then we patch another hole.

Cristina: Yep.

Jack: There's always a loophole. It's a matter of finding them. Who finds it first? The government, the companies, or the people?

Cristina: If we find it first, then we could do something. If they find it first, they could just. Yeah, create.

Jack: If we find it first and it hasn't been in favor of the companies or the government. The government just listens to the people. There's no benefit or not.

Cristina: Mm.

Jack: If the companies find it first, they abuse it. Usually try to put it into law secretly while they immediately put it into play, but then change it in law afterwards.

Cristina: Yeah.

Jack: So by the time people realize it's happening. Oh no, it's legal. If the government finds it, they try to use it to control both the companies and the people. Yes, because the government needs to try.

Cristina: To keep its people. I mean, wants control both the company and the people.

Jack: Yeah. And the. Because what's the benefit of everybody Wants control of everybody.

Cristina: Okay.

Jack: Because the companies want control of the government, but they also want to control the people.

Cristina: Yes.

Jack: And the people want to control the companies and they also want to control the government.

Cristina: Definitely. So the government would also want.

Jack: Our three party system is equal to our four party system in politics where we have the president is his own party, the Congress is its own party, the Senate is its own party and the people are their own party.

Cristina: And we all control each other.

Jack: And we all control each other in some way. The third, twice removed is not reachable. So people don't affect President, Congress doesn't affect Senate, Senate doesn't affect Congress, and the President doesn't affect the people. So if we make a box and put them all on the corners, the people opposite to each other, us opposite from President, Congress opposite to Senate. That's the layout. You can't affect somebody you're not directly touching with a line, but you can affect each other in that same way. We can control who's in the Senate and we can control who's in the Congress and they control who's the President and the President can control who's in the Senate and the President can control who's in the Congress. They control Senate and Congress. Yeah, along with the people.

Cristina: So in a way we still. It's still up to us.

Jack: Yes. It's a battle between the people and the dictator for the two people who control the people.

Cristina: And the dictator and the dictator could be either the government or the companies.

Jack: Well, that's a whole separate thing. We assume the entire political system, including the people as part of politics.

Cristina: Yeah.

Jack: Is one system, but people independent of politics. We're talking capitalism and politics as two separate things. So people economics are included with Congress. I mean people economics is included with government and companies, while people politics is people, Congress, Senate, and president and those are separate things. If we have our three party system of the companies, the people and the government, we zoom in on the government. The government contains the people, people, the President, the Congress and the Senate. But when companies try to influence the government, they're trying to influence that entire group. People's thoughts on politics, the Congress, the Senate's behavior with money. And they try to bribe the President.

Cristina: Definitely. Yes.

Jack: But controlling our thoughts on politics is independent than trying to use our money. Because our thoughts in politics is what the government is trying to control. Yes, that's all just part of the government trying to influence us. So it's a whole f****** clusterfuck of things. The illusion that they're trying to portray is that people control the government, that the government controls the companies, that the companies control the money and that the money controls the people. They try to tell us the money controls us. You gotta work for it. Yeah, you gotta work for it. If you didn't work for, you didn't earn it.

Cristina: Yeah.

Jack: And if you didn't earn it, you can't do s***.

Cristina: We start to believe that though.

Jack: Yes. We believe we're owned by the money. We're not. We're the ones holding the money.

Cristina: But that's the. Wait, that's the government telling us that. Or that's the companies that are tricking us.

Jack: Everything is trying to convince us that it's that order. Yes, Everybody's trying to convince us that it's that order.

Cristina: Okay.

Jack: They want us to believe people control government, government controls companies, companies control money and money controls people.

Cristina: But it's not like that.

Jack: No. The reality is, if we think about it and use it properly, people control money, money controls companies, companies control government and government controls people.

Cristina: And if we knew that, we could actually do something. Although we do stuff, it's just very rarely. That it works.

Jack: Yes.

Cristina: That we actually like, I guess, bully the wrong company or the right company, I guess.

Jack: It's not that it rarely works. It's that the system is designed to move slowly to take into account knee jerk reaction. You don't want people to have a knee jerk reaction and then make a law out of it. Yes, that's problematic. That's what's scary about Democrats having the Senate two.

Cristina: Because then they can do that stuff. They're gonna have both parties.

Jack: Yes. I mean, the House and the Congress.

Cristina: Yes.

Jack: Yes. If they have the House, the Congress and the Senate and the majority of people are also Democrats. Right now we have a scary f****** problem where the entire system is blue and Everybody who's just reacting to things Trump did are gonna create laws based on a reaction, no thought, pure emotion.

Cristina: That's all he's been doing, too.

Jack: Yes, but he can't do anything. He just looks like he's doing stuff. He tries to make it seem like he has power and people believe it. The people on the right swear he has power because he tells them and they'll believe anything. And the people on the left swear he has power because they hate anything he does. And they're like, look at how horrible. When in reality, half this s*** existed long before he was even.

Cristina: It's just easier to blame him.

Jack: Yes.

Cristina: Then, like, we've been doing this for.

Jack: Years, but he hasn't done anything. He's done nothing. Everything. Somebody else put. The only times anything really got accomplished in mass, it was when the parties were all aligned. When Obama was in office, it was all blue. He got s*** done.

Cristina: But you said that was a bad thing.

Jack: That was a bad thing. Many, many horrible things happened in that time. That was a very, very bad thing.

Cristina: And right now, though, it's not all red.

Jack: No.

Cristina: The house is blue.

Jack: The house is blue.

Cristina: Okay. Okay.

Jack: Yes. But the president is blue now.

Cristina: Yes. And everything's going back to being super blue.

Jack: Let's hope not.

Cristina: We're not sure yet.

Jack: Because if the Senate turns out to stay red.

Cristina: Yeah.

Jack: Then slowly, only things people agree on will get through. And that's the way it should be.

Cristina: Because that's more balanced.

Jack: Yes, that's the way it should be.

Cristina: Sort of just random stuff going through.

Jack: Yes. And I think the filibuster shouldn't be removed. The filibuster is that thing where one person can stop it if they don't agree. Like a bill going through.

Cristina: One person can stop.

Jack: One person can stop it. And it's like, if they have legit reason.

Cristina: Yes.

Jack: Then it shouldn't go through.

Cristina: But do they at least have to?

Jack: I think they do. I don't think they could just be disagree. Why? Yeah, I don't want to.

Cristina: Yeah. Okay.

Jack: If that's how it plays out, maybe fix the fill up.

Cristina: Maybe fix it. Yeah.

Jack: But if it's. If you really got to explain your stance and have a good argument, then, yeah, I think it should be there. Because if one person disagrees, they are a representative. That's what a republic is. And we live in a f****** republic.

Cristina: And they forget that. Although Biden is, you know, acting like he's for both parties.

Jack: So if.

Cristina: I don't know if that's all talk.

Jack: Or what if a representative disagrees? They represent a huge number of people. You can't just be like, f*** your s***. That's not how it works. A pure democracy is dangerous because the minority will always suffer.

Cristina: Yeah, we should. We gotta listen to everyone, I guess.

Jack: We gotta listen to everybody. And that is a f****** problem.

Cristina: That too is a problem.

Jack: Well, if we don't listen to people. If we don't listen to people, we are faced with a very disturbing problem.

Cristina: Yes.

Jack: Yeah. The problem is that if you listen to knee jerk reaction and legislate or behave in response to things, you end up with problems. For example, there's actually a perfect example of people controlling companies through money.

Cristina: What's the example?

Jack: If you look at companies who fire people who have been accused of. Me too. Whether or not they have been proven guilty.

Cristina: Just assuming that they are.

Jack: Just assuming they are. Because the people, the louder voices are saying it. And people are paying attention to the louder voices. And we just gotta pick a f****** side immediately so we don't lose money. So we get rid of them. They don't boycott us because we're on their side. But you ruin somebody's life. Think of Netflix firing mad, mad, mad people over me too.

Cristina: Yes.

Jack: Think of shows firing mad map shows, movies, TV channels firing people over me too. Some of them. Many of them, there was f****** nothing. It turned out there was f*** nothing. Some of them had proof that there was nothing. That they were innocent.

Cristina: Yes. Like Kevin.

Jack: Like Kevin Spacey with text messages showing, I'm gonna tell them you did this. And it's like, why, if I didn't do that?

Cristina: Yeah.

Jack: It's like, because you're gonna believe me and not you. And it's like, too bad that got recorded, buddy. But how many times does this happen?

Cristina: Too many times.

Jack: Too many times. And after Kevin Spacey did it, people got smart and they're like, I'm gonna just record these conversations so that when somebody does that. And now we have several cases where people have proof. They threatened they were gonna do this.

Cristina: Yes.

Jack: And they know it didn't happen. Here's the proof.

Cristina: That's how it should be, though.

Jack: Yes. But companies didn't give a s***. They fire people. And we're not going to rehire because the image is ruined. We can't. And that's in react. That's a knee jerk reaction. That's the companies in a knee jerk reaction to the people's knee jerk reaction. Companies being ruled by the money of the people do it.

Cristina: Yes. But they pretend that we're under Them under their control.

Jack: They pretend the money is controlling us when we're controlling the money.

Cristina: If we knew that we easily.

Jack: Well we were aware of it in these times. That's why we were like, we'll boycott you guys.

Cristina: Yes.

Jack: That's where boycotting came in. Boycotting came as a result of being aware that. Wait, wait, wait guys, we have the money.

Cristina: Yeah, I guess the Internet did help because we always were boycotting beforehand, but not as much as now.

Jack: People relied on us not being aware of it.

Cristina: Yes. Like maybe one town will be boycotting and the rest of the country might not know about or they'll find out really late or something and be over it.

Jack: Yeah, it's just news. Oh, they boycott a thing. Oh for one. Oh, how interesting.

Cristina: Yes. But now it could be the world.

Jack: Because it could happen overnight. Yes. Your company could be destroyed overnight. So you react instantaneously and that's a problem. That's where all these companies suddenly changed their rules and terms.

Cristina: Ruin a company. That's the thing that you don't notice. But you could do it.

Jack: Yeah, you could destroy a company. And now we know it though, so. But the problem is we have knee jerk reactions as people. So now we don't like Sonic boycott and it's like what the f***? Now you're like swinging the other side. You're hung, you're power hungry.

Cristina: Being really picky. Yes. Empower hunger. Oh yeah.

Jack: You know you have the power now. You're gonna wield it like it's a weapon.

Cristina: Yes.

Jack: And you can destroy anything you don't even like on. On nuance. Bullshit.

Cristina: Hey, if it's better though that Sonic one is the only one that's like eh, it actually turned out alright. But yeah, in other cases it's really unfair.

Jack: Yeah, it's pretty f***** up. But on the flip side, they can control how effective our boycotts are with what we're allowed to say when we're allowed to say it. If they can stop us from saying certain things on the Internet. Well we can't have them going to Twitter and saying all this s***. So we got to get lobbyists to go and make lobby for some laws so that they force all our competition to have certain. We gotta censor these people so they don't say certain things so that people don't know. Hey, we can put this s***. We could do that. Or we just censored topics that they think they want censored. We censored things we that they think they want censored. When really it's Benefit to us. The less they can say, the easier it is for us to move in those dark alleys that they've banned. And by putting lobbyists to go do this, we can get everybody to agree to certain terms that prevent the dialogue, that allows to boycott the dialogue. That allows for this type of. Yes, the dialogue. That allows for this information to flourish and destroy our. And that's companies controlling the government for their safety.

Cristina: They do a great job.

Jack: Yeah. Because even Twitter, the wild west, has randomly begun to censor s***.

Cristina: Yes. And Instagram. Oh, stop it. Instagram.

Jack: Well, Instagram is Facebook. And Facebook is overcorrecting because it's been attacked severely and it is scared. The government and the people. It's supposed to be in control of one. And it doesn't seem to be controlling either. Facebook is scared. So, like, we gotta overcorrect in every.

Cristina: Possible direction and just ruin ourselves more.

Jack: Yeah, it's kind of gonna backfire. They're gonna keep kind of snowballing in the wrong direction.

Cristina: Mm.

Jack: It's going to be crazy, man.

Cristina: Twitter is on the same path, though. YouTube is sort of the same way too, of just blocking things for random. You say a word, you're not.

Jack: Well, actually that brings in the. The excessive power that companies. Because they control the election. The company, all these companies control the election. Social media controls the election. They choose what is allowed to see. So the ads, for example, a bunch of companies decided we're going to pull President Trump ads off of our platform.

Cristina: Yes.

Jack: Because they're filled with conspiracy. Even if the s*** he's saying is true, how do you like. He can't. All of it can't be conspiracy theories, man. And maybe a lot of it is true. Maybe a lot of it. Maybe all of it is true. They could just say it's a conspiracy theory and the left is going to agree just because they agree and they're the majority. So f*** it.

Cristina: Yeah.

Jack: And then you reduce the chance. Because the problem is people are confident with Trump in office and they'll say things on their mind that usually the left doesn't like. And when they see it on their platform, the left is like, well, we're gonna boycott this platform now. So we remove Trump and he doesn't get elected. Cuz people didn't see him. He went to the back of people's minds. We push Biden to the front. People like Biden more, they see him more, they vote for him. He gets in office, people stop saying s*** that's off the rails. And they don't boycott Our platform because some a******.

Cristina: So they.

Jack: Peace.

Cristina: Yes. So it has nothing to do with the mailings or any.

Jack: That's them pointing in many different directions. So that we don't look at the fact that they removed ads. They blocked and censored President Twitter's things and Facebook posts were amazing. His ads were hilarious.

Cristina: They were comedy genius.

Jack: Yes. And Biden and his boring s*** all got pushed to the front.

Cristina: Yes.

Jack: Because it was beneficial for the companies to have somebody who won't light the flame. Like it won't fuel that fire that.

Cristina: Exists in people who's boycotting the companies.

Jack: Yes. Because people who say crazy s***. People feel confident. They say crazy s***. People like, well, that's racist. And we're gonna boycott Facebook if they don't take it down. We'll boycott Twitter if they don't take it down.

Cristina: Yeah.

Jack: And everybody's scared about their money.

Cristina: I did.

Jack: You threatened the rich people's money. They're gonna act.

Cristina: Yep.

Jack: And all these rich people got scared. Google, they got scared. People saying s*** on YouTube now.

Cristina: They don't want this, though.

Jack: Yeah. So everybody got they banned together. And we're like, we're with our powers. We're gonna get our lobbyists and we're gonna Earth, water, fire. Our powers combined. We're captain correct the government. And then they went ahead and basically put Biden in there themselves.

Cristina: Yeah.

Jack: So that the off the rails s*** stops and their companies are safe.

Cristina: Yeah. Because then there's nothing to look at. Because they could do it secretly without worrying that someone's gonna make a big show about it like Trump would do.

Jack: So they can legally censor whoever the f*** they want without somebody suing because they're gonna put that s*** into line. You know, we could take all the. How much s*** could they just label as conspiracy theory right now? Just take it down.

Cristina: Everything.

Jack: Yeah.

Cristina: Like that. Fairway conspiracy. I don't know if it's a real conspiracy or not anymore. They said it was a conspiracy. That is not true of Fairway company. It's a furniture product thing that all the furniture is super expensive. And they were saying people believe that they're selling kids in the furniture, that there's missing kids and the furniture has the name of the kids. They were like, this is weird. Because the furniture without the kid's name is a different price. Like, why is it so much more expensive with a missing kid's child? With a missing kid's name on it. Are they selling these kids? And then all of that's counted as conspiracy? Of course.

Jack: I mean, it technically is. It is a conspiracy, but whether it's a true conspiracy or not is the argument.

Cristina: And they say it's false because. I don't know. It was a mistake.

Jack: Well, actually, this is another f****** program problem that Facebook has. It. Cultivating these f****** Facebook groups that creates multiple conspiracies.

Cristina: Yeah, it was a conspiracy machine.

Jack: Yeah, it's the breeding ground of f****** conspiracy theories. Facebook is where conspiracy theories are born. It used to f****** be 4chan and Reddit.

Cristina: Yes. And those are really private, like people. You don't know a lot of people in those things, do you? Yes. I mean, I guess if you're a part of it, you do, but you know.

Jack: Yeah, like the normal person know s*** about 4chan.

Cristina: Yes, your parent does it.

Jack: Exactly.

Cristina: They know Facebook.

Jack: Yeah, everybody's on Facebook. That's a problem. It's too easily accessible and it'll get blended in. If you like this thing, you're probably likely to believe that thing. So we're gonna bunch you guys up and throw all of them at you. And now you believe all the conspiracy theories that f****** happen on Facebook. So people, now Facebook, in its overcorrection has to f****** every conspiracy. F*** this s*** and f*** that and take it all down.

Cristina: Same with the news, because everything was fake news. Everyone constantly sharing fake news about just anything. Anything.

Jack: Yep, yep. Everything just proved this bullshit. And they. They don't even know at this point.

Cristina: No, they just. They just share everything. Whatever. I don't know, whatever was popular, I guess. I don't know how they found these things.

Jack: Well, actually that's funny because sticking on to the banning, like Twitter and Facebook banning. Alex Jones messed up when the s*** he was talking about turned out to be true. Yeah, that's the craziest, most f***** s***. And he talked about s*** from like 20 years ago or talked about 20 years ago about s*** that got proven recently to be true and he was just removed. Oh, it's conspiracy theory and blah, blah, blah. And it's like.

Cristina: No, because it's only though. Because one person actually acted out, though, towards it. They did that thing with sort of like Pizzagate where the guy went to the pizza place that. With a gun, I think. Yeah, whatever. Something similar to that happened with Alex Jones where one of the listeners went out and just. They. They would harass parents of a school shootout.

Jack: Oh, yeah.

Cristina: They didn't believe it was true because he said it wasn't true. And like, who knows? But now he's banned for what he said. But because of how the people Reacted from what he was saying.

Jack: But yeah, no, definitely it's. But here's the problem. Somebody reacting to something isn't his fault. But if truth is coming out, that could be something. You could do something with it. Yes, like crazy people react on other s***. Why don't you ban when other people behave random on other crap? How many people went around harassing Michael Jackson without knowing for a fact? Turned out it was true.

Cristina: Was it true?

Jack: I mean, not really. Nobody has definite proof. But the f****** documentary that came out makes it look like it's true.

Cristina: Yes.

Jack: And so people were harassing him with none of this information. On rumors. Those people didn't get banned from anywhere. That happened on the Internet forever. No. Nobody banned them.

Cristina: No.

Jack: Why?

Cristina: We could harass people.

Jack: Yeah, you're allowed to harass. It's f****** weird, man.

Cristina: Especially celebrities. We own them for some reason.

Jack: Yeah.

Cristina: Death threats to everyone. Why is that a thing?

Jack: And you didn't you think you'd think that the government would. In response to what people want? Because this is back to the illusion. In response to what people want. When situations like this come, you'd think people would just say a thing and the government would do what its job is, which is to listen to the people. But it doesn't. And it doesn't legislate until they get paid by the lobbyists because it should do things. But then people start to protest and people band together and hey, we gotta rise up and we gotta do these things because our rights are being abused by the government that should be listening to us. And instead of the government listening, what does it do? It sends armies of militarized police to get aggressive on protesters.

Cristina: Scary stuff.

Jack: That's the government controlling the people, not the people controlling the government.

Cristina: Because the people don't control the government.

Jack: Because the people don't control the government. They want you to think you do. Hey, go vote. That's how you make a choice. It doesn't f****** matter.

Cristina: Yes. You voted for them to send those cops to you.

Jack: Yeah.

Cristina: To beat you up.

Jack: Yeah. They intentionally write things in ways so that you vote for what they want. Again, you didn't pick who went up there. You picked out of the people they sent up there. That's a very different election. You don't pick who gets to stand on the podium and debate. You pick out of the people they sent to the podium to debate. That's them telling you you get to choose what happens in this government, do you? They chose two identical guys and sent them to the top. And like, which one's your favorite?

Cristina: Yes. So many. We're just. We're addicted to those pills.

Jack: Yeah. Blue pill, red pill, man. It's all the same f****** s***. But that's the government definitely abusing its rights. It's sending people and abusing its power, in that case, instead of putting laws. When it's their job to obey the people, they completely ignore it. And they do the laws that the lobbyists pay for.

Cristina: Yes, but if we do something, have we ever done anything that actually changed laws?

Jack: I mean, it does happen when we get really aggressive. Yes.

Cristina: When we get aggressive. Yes.

Jack: Protesting is how the civil rights movement happens.

Cristina: Yes. We just need to do that again.

Jack: You gotta get real aggressive and you gotta get scary on the government. You gotta threaten their way of life in exchange through. Oh, you could do it through the companies. Yeah, you got to threaten their way of life through the companies.

Cristina: Yes.

Jack: You threaten everything they stand for through the companies. The companies will force the government to do whatever the f*** you want. Don't even question it. You threaten a billionaire. A billionaire controls everybody. Don't worry about it. You threaten a billionaire, he's gonna do whatever the f*** you want him to do without a question. He doesn't have opinions. He cares about money. He doesn't have opinions. He sides with whatever opinion gets paid.

Cristina: Yes.

Jack: And so do the politicians. Except you don't have millions in your pocket. The bribe of politician, the billionaires do. So you go ahead and you control that billionaire through their company and watch the laws you want take place. That's how it happens.

Cristina: That's how Jeff Bezos killed that person.

Jack: Yeah, he just went out and shot somebody. Perfect example of how this f****** works as well is the problem with the Senate and the Congress that they don't agree right now, but the money is for the people. Do whatever it takes to give the people money. But they're like, well, I don't agree with this. And I don't. Yeah, but the people are the ones suffering. But it doesn't matter because the people don't control the government. It doesn't f****** matter what we want or what we need because the people don't control the government.

Cristina: Yeah. So they could play this game of what? This price? No, that price.

Jack: They could do this forever because the people have no influence on it. Now, you tell the big companies, look, we're not paying any of you m************ until this f****** stimulus bill goes out. Suddenly they'll agree on $5 trillion overnight.

Cristina: We should do that.

Jack: All the things 100%, I swear to you boycott Google, Amazon and Facebook all at once. Say, until we get the stimulus checks, we don't use any of this. Tell me it doesn't take 15 minutes.

Cristina: Before they do something.

Jack: There's so much. You get a $10,000 check every month for the rest of your life. Just because they're still making a million.

Cristina: Need to do that.

Jack: Yes, that's how it works, man.

Cristina: We just haven't figured that out.

Jack: Yeah, it's. It's. People are not willing, people are ignorant, people are lazy.

Cristina: Dumbest things, just the dumbest things get through. No, the whole sonic thing is still shocking.

Jack: Yeah, yeah. People this, man. We don't know how to use power.

Cristina: No.

Jack: That's why the sit. That's why all these systems form. We can't have unlimited power. There needs to be a slow process. Only when a giant group decides unanimously does change happen instantaneously. And at that point, it should happen instantaneously because everybody wanted it.

Cristina: But then. So with the police thing, is that happening then? Because we all together, we're protesting change.

Jack: Specifically in the places where people are banning together in the large enough numbers, change happened immediately, even when the results were s*****. Think of New York. People overwhelmingly were like the police. So they went ahead and removed a s*** ton of police. They defunded the s*** out of police. Crime went way the f*** up. But you guys wanted it. So this is what it looks like now. You can't complain. You asked for it. Your knee jerk reaction. This is what it looks like. Enjoy that.

Cristina: They had to come up with a solution as well.

Jack: Oh yeah, they're definitely complaining now. But they're not arguing for the government that made it happen. Now they're like, f***, we can't go back on our thing. We got to come up with solutions. So community solutions are starting to happen. So I guess it's got to get bad before it gets good.

Cristina: Yes. Yeah.

Jack: So that's the flip side. Yes, crime will go up, but it will go down once they figure it out.

Cristina: Yeah. And that's the important thing. If you don't want the police to control you or the government to control you or whatever. If you want the freedom, it's gonna get bad.

Jack: Yeah. Until you stat. Because it's a new system. You're making a new system.

Cristina: Yeah.

Jack: Figure out how to work, how it works. If you don't know how it works, s***'s gonna get weird.

Cristina: Yes.

Jack: And it has to because you need to remove the government from the positions of power you want the people to have. But it's problematic we don't know how to use power. We haven't had power. We've been controlled by the government for so long. Instead of the government doing what we want.

Cristina: The government. But they're just people. They're evil people. Did the power turn them evil or did the want for power in the first place make them?

Jack: It doesn't work that way because the lobbyists don't pay. I mean, they do pay individuals, but it doesn't work in such a fashion. The only main individual that lobbyists really, really pay is, like, the President. And, yeah, you pay senators and you pay Congress, but you pay them in a bigger scope because they have multiple individuals trying to pass something. So it's about, well, you need to talk to people. You need to make these decisions. You need to get these people to agree. So you're paying a general collective to make moves.

Cristina: Yeah.

Jack: And they need funding to do what they do. So it's not that there's somebody like, I'm an evil scheme guy. Money is gonna fill my pockets.

Cristina: They just need money.

Jack: Also, my job is getting paid.

Cristina: Yeah.

Jack: To run the government collectively. We all got paid by the same guy to vote for the same thing. But I wasn't like, well, he's paying me, he's paying him. We're all being paid, so we can agree. No, you get paid by you. Basically, they're investing in you.

Cristina: They're investing.

Jack: So nobody's out there being evil.

Cristina: Yes.

Jack: Nobody's like, they're just really doing their ideas and doing what their supporters believe they should be doing. And their supporters happen to have a lot of money. And whoever pays you the most is who you work for. Essentially.

Cristina: Then are the companies evil, schemy people?

Jack: Well, the companies are also not evil, schemy people. The companies are companies. Their job is to do whatever profits.

Cristina: The business, no matter what.

Jack: Cause they're not gonna go out and, like, rob people that would profit them.

Cristina: Facebook.

Jack: Well, Facebook is in trouble.

Cristina: Yes. I guess that's what happens. When it does happen.

Jack: Like Amazon does it the right way. You just gotta do whatever. You have shareholders. You have to please the shareholders. You have business sort of setup that you got to follow. You're a retailer, you own certain businesses that do certain things, and you run those businesses accordingly, and you make money in those ways. But if your business is threatened, then you have to make stances and you have to make moves so that your business is not threatened. And the same thing goes for people.

Cristina: Yes.

Jack: People have to do what the government says so that they don't get in trouble so they don't go to jail, so that they are. They can be out and vote for the certain rights that they want and do this and do that. So every. Nobody's like unanimously doing anything. Everything is a collective of ideas and things influencing each other piece.

Cristina: But why does it look like there's something wrong with it if it all works so well together?

Jack: Because.

Cristina: Oh, wait, that was about the illusion. The illusion is what makes it feel like it's all wrong when it's not.

Jack: Yes. The illusion that they're trying to portray makes it look f*****.

Cristina: Yes.

Jack: But the illusion means nothing. Yeah, that's everybody trying to claim they have more power than they claim and trying to claim. Oh, no, we're the ones in trouble. You're the ones in control. When in reality you control the wrong thing, but they don't want you to know what you control. That's all them trying to trick you. The system isn't flawed. The people in the system are flawed, but no individual is flawed. Yeah, collectives of bad ideas and bad education are flawed.

Cristina: Yes.

Jack: And that's pretty much it. I don't know how the f*** we got here, but that was a fascinating discussion. Although we're running out of time.

Cristina: Oh, no.

Jack: Yeah. So I don't have any idea how we got here, but you know what? Great. Whatever. Anyways, we've had other conversations like this on this show before. Not exactly like this one particularly, but related to politics and sociology and human behavior and government and companies and blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. So if you like conversations of this type and this nature, you can find more conversations of this nature, which I hope you liked. You can find that on the official website, greythoughts.info or on Apple Podcast, Spotify, and anywhere you get your podcasts.

Cristina: And you can reach us on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram and TikTok. UsConvopod.

Jack: Yes. And remember to subscribe and rate the show. And if you feel so inclined, review it, please.

Cristina: Yes. And let people who might like the show know about it.

Jack: Yes. Word of mouth. Be sure to tell people. Tell people about the show. See, there's a difference. At the beginning of the show, we tell you to kidnap somebody, but at the end we tell you there's certain people who are just gonna listen if you tell them. Yeah, but we need you to get those people who don't want to listen first.

Cristina: Yes.

Jack: And then just tell people who are totally gonna be like, okay, I'll go listen.

Cristina: Yes. And then everyone wins.

Jack: And then everyone wins. We get all sides Yep, this has.

Cristina: Been the Just Conversation podcast. Take nothing personal and thanks for listening.

Jack: Sat patiently watching his co host, the maniacal laughs in the back of his mind begin to get louder and louder. He's screaming in laughter, but he stares blankly at her. She knows very little about what's happening in his mind other than what he's narrating for some given reason.

Cristina: Yeah. Why is he laughing? His mind.

Jack: He's preparing himself with laughter. Yes. The maniacal laughter in the back of his mind gets him ready. It preps him for the show. It brings the inner Wade Wilson fused with the Joker, forward into the limelight. For whatever reason, the light is lime. Could have just been a white spotlight, but it is a lime light.

Cristina: Mm.

Jack: I mean, I guess in old movies it was limelight, wasn't it? Like, the stage light was this weird, like, off yellow. It was lime colored.

Cristina: Was it lime colored? It was just off yellow. Good morning. Good morning.
