Band-Aid medicine endlessly treating symptoms rather than root causes must be abandoned - as soon as possible. Patient centric care must be the priority. We need to transition towards the “Do No Harm” model of private care that places humanity at the forefront of real health and wellness care. In this new model your entire life style is examined and analyzed to promote and support the totality of your body’s integrated systems.

Welcome to the podcast where every episode promises an unfiltered dive into the eclectic, the profound, and sometimes the absurd. No topic is off limits. Nothing is sacred, and political correctness takes a back seat. Alright. Well, hey, folks. This is Joe Rusciello. It is great to be with you again here on a beautiful, beautiful Friday night here in the beautiful city of Eagle Pass. And we are going to do the very best that we can to bring you the best quality talk radio we could muster without all the bluster. This is the podcast.
And again folks, it is a beautiful Friday night here in the pimple on the backside of Texas, The city of Eagle Pass and, we had 84 degrees here at start time at, 8PM. And if this is any indication of what it's gonna be coming the summer months, man, I am in trouble. I need to get that mini split or that air working in here again in the studio, because that window unit drives me crazy. Folks, we're gonna have a a very special guest here with us who seems to already have checked in. We have, the blue cat over there on your screen. We have, Bob Lament. I hope I'm saying it right.
Yeah. Sorry. I think I hit the button too early. I apologize. Just a little bit. That's okay. It's it's happened before. That's okay. Just hang out with me while I go through the opening of, of the show here and, we'll, we'll we'll get going here. Alright, folks. So, well, with Bob here, we're gonna just, kinda quickly, dispense with the usual pleasantries and we're gonna get right on into, some of the housekeeping stuff that we do. So folks, I just wanna remind you to head over to our website, joeroos.com. Don't forget we changed that recently, so it's joeroos.com.
When you get there, head over to the web form, open it up, send us over any questions, comments, cares, concerns that you have, and, any suggestions that you might have. And, if anybody ever recommends to invite a blue cat onto the show again, I I will completely ban you for life for the show. Alright. But, Really?
[00:03:51] Unknown:
No. Nobody heard from me yet. Come on. I watched your YouTube video, bud.
[00:03:56] Unknown:
Oh, okay. Alright. There you go. So, folks, don't forget to do that. But if you don't wanna use a web form, that's fine. You could always email me directly at [email protected]. That's [email protected]. Also, don't forget, more important than anything else, you gotta hit that support button. Alright. We really do need your donations, and remember this is a value for value podcast, and, all that simply means is that if you find any value from what we're doing here, we're asking that you return that value in the form of a donation. It could be a one time donation donation in any amount that you wanna send, or you could join one of our, producer tiers. We have the associate producer tier for a monthly recurring donation of $17.76 a month. And with that, you get the shout out. Every show, you get included in all the show notes, emails, anything that we send out. And then we also have for $18.36 a month, we have our producer's credit, the producer's tier. So you get yourself a little promotion, but you still get the same perks, the shout outs and and whatnot.
The real benefit is the executive producer tier. Alright? Now for that, for a for a monthly recurring donation of $25 a month or more, you get all of the perks of the other two, but you also get an invitation to do a segment with us here live on the show. So I think it's worth it. I think this is I think it's a good opportunity. And if you remember correctly, a couple of weeks ago, we had one of our executive producers actually here in the studio with us, all the way from the great state of Washington. Now you don't have to do that. I'm not encouraging you to do that. I happen to know the guy for twenty plus years. I don't want any of you here. Okay?
So, I'm not the greatest host in the world when it comes to that, but, but you are more than welcome to join us here on the show, for a segment, and we'll get that all booked up and and scheduled, and we'll have a great time, great conversation. So $17.76 a month, associate producer. Eighteen thirty six a month, producer. And $25 a month or more, executive producer. So decide which one's the which one works best for you, and sign on up. We would love to have you on board. Also, you could, you could help us out with some crypto donations. We have a crypto wallet up on our website, and, it's very very easy to do. If you don't have a crypto wallet, you wanna set one up, I would suggest you go to getalbi.com.
That's who we use, and they're they're simp super simple to use. They have a a web hub that you could use that they will maintain for you for a small monthly fee, and, you can donate your Satoshis to us. All Satoshis are, if you don't know, is a micropayment of Bitcoin. It's really pennies when you think about it. I think I think a hundred a hundred satoshis is like 10¢ or something like that. So, so, it's not a huge amount of money, but every little penny that we get helps keep this whole thing going. Alright. Also, the last thing I wanna mention to you where we generate revenue from is that, we have our affiliate link with the Alex Jones store. Okay? So you can go to the alexjonesstore.com/joe, and you could get yourself some really high quality vitamins, supplements, and patriotic apparel.
I'm not gonna go through the whole spiel that I always go through because we have our guest waiting here, but, you guys know I take the ultimate Irish sea moss, which is terrible with the lights because you can't really see the bottle, but, you guys know what this stuff is. This stuff is fantastic for you. You can get the gummies, you can get the the capsules. The capsules are better because well, to me anyway. They're better because they're more concentrated, they're a little bit stronger. You take two of those every day, as opposed to four of the gummies, but it's up to you, however you like to do it. Also, we have the ultimate turmeric, which is I love this stuff. This is great for inflammation. This is great for bloating. This is great for, boosting your antioxidant defenses. Fantastic stuff.
We also have been taking the atomic defense, which has been really, really helpful. Really helpful. Like I told you guys before, I I handle biohazard material, from time to time at my at my regular job, and, it never fails. Within a day or two after handling it, I get sick. But since I've been taking the atomic defense, it's really been it's really been a help. I haven't been getting sick, or if I do get sick, it's not as bad as it was. And then which I don't have because I left it out in the other side there is the optimal human. The, super food that we that we've been taking, it's a drink. You mix one little cat little scoop in eight to 10 ounces of water every day, and this stuff is like fantastic. This stuff goes right through you. It really does. It helps you out. I've lost almost 30 pounds since I've been on it, not that that's really a benefit of the of the product, but for me it has been.

Did I ask you that already? Yeah. No. That's great. It works. Alright. That's fantastic. And Bob is the host of a long running long running, Internet radio program that started back in, 1999 called, Static Radio.
And, Bob, you know, I I do have some experience in Internet radio. Back in 2015 or so, I was doing Internet radio back up in New York with a bunch of friends. And, so I remember what it was before it was, you know, podcasting. But, but it was, it was quite the experience. Podcasting?
[00:11:08] Unknown:
Yeah. It was embarrassing to say you had a podcast way back when. It was. People thought you were a idiot. Yeah. Ex uneducated,
[00:11:16] Unknown:
technically, unsavvy, no time no no extra time on your not well, too much extra time in your hands to do anything else. Time. Yeah. Not working or anything like that, living in mom's basement in your pajamas. Right. Yeah. Exactly. You're a basement dweller. Mhmm.
[00:11:31] Unknown:
Drain on society back then. Yeah. That's I've been that my whole life and, The Drain Society. Continue to be apparently.
[00:11:40] Unknown:
So Well, after doing it after doing it for twenty four years, I think you've earned the right to be a drain on society. Yeah. I'm still draining society right now. I'm draining your show at this point. Yeah. No. No. Actually I apologize for jumping on early. I thought, I thought you'd have to hit a button, but then I just popped up, and I'm like, oh, well, crap. Yeah. No. That's fine. That's fine. I am. I I could've I could've left you actually, I sent you a message on the, on the little chat thing. I did, but I didn't I'm illiterate. So That's okay. All it said was hang out till I get to I didn't see it in time. I already hit buttons. Yeah. That's that's fine. I'm button crazy. That's all good. It's all good. That that actually happened, to, an interview I did a couple of weeks ago with, with a guy that, I I we we connected on PodMatch also.
And we were gonna talk about UFOs, UAPs, USOs, all that stuff too. It was the funniest thing because, he he jumped on really early, and I forgot to set it to where I had to approve him connecting.
[00:12:40] Unknown:
Mhmm. And,
[00:12:42] Unknown:
so he jumped on before I even started the stream.
[00:12:46] Unknown:
Oh.
[00:12:46] Unknown:
And Yeah. They, and my audience got a beautiful picture of him sitting there picking his nose and and playing I was right. Playing with his mic and his camera. So I'm So in a way, I'm kinda glad you jumped on when you did. At least you're a character. You're you're a cartoon character. I'm not. Yeah. It's a little more difficult for me to pick my nose. Yeah. Exactly. Exactly.
[00:13:05] Unknown:
Although, I could have been doing it behind the character. Well, that's as long as we didn't see it, we're okay, bro. Yeah. You didn't have to be subjected to it. Yeah. Exactly.
[00:13:14] Unknown:
Exactly. So why don't you tell us a little bit about the, the the the voice behind the blue cat? Give us a little bit of a history.
[00:13:22] Unknown:
So, I'm Bob. How's everybody doing? Been doing, like, we called it in written in Internet radio way back when and, started doing this in 1999, which I'm sure there's some people out there who weren't even born yet or something like that. So more power to you, young folks, who are now old folks.
[00:13:43] Unknown:
And, I hope it's getting there.
[00:13:46] Unknown:
Yeah. They're getting they're getting there. Right? They're almost in the thirties, so no one's gonna listen to them anymore. Mhmm. And, yeah. But, I've been doing it with, cohost Miles Title, and, we every week, we, do a show. We generally tell funny stories or strange things that have happened to us. It's a very experiential, for us at least, show when we talk about what happens. And hopefully, we make each other laugh. And, in you know, hopefully, you'll laugh as well, you know, the listener, but we don't really, you know, have a a good feedback loop on that yet, but we'll work on it. We actually do the show live for the last few years on a platform called Plausible, which is a comedian's platform. And so you can join in. I say come by at 09:30, central
[00:14:36] Unknown:
on Plausible, and, bring a story. We wanna hear a funny story. Well, that would be great. Actually, if you could, when you have a chance, send me the links to it, and I'll, make sure we put all that stuff in the show notes. Will do. But, yeah, I I know what you're saying about, you know, getting started on on Internet radio, but it was probably one of the more fun things that I did. And, you know, we had the benefits of there were three of us. There was it was myself. It was my friend, who who went by the name of Big JP. And, then we had Joey Drapes, who was, actually the owner of the studio. It was a professional, broadcast studio.
And, he allowed us to use the studio at no charge, as long as we let him come on the show. So,
[00:15:17] Unknown:
it it It was his studio. What it was he care if he wants to be on your show? Yeah. No. It was great though. He because because we had a very interesting dynamic. We did a lot of Apparently you drugged Joey drapes to make him think that he needed to be on your show. I don't know. That sounds like suspect right here. Well, I I think he may he may have done that to us. What was the what was the name of the show, by the way? Oh, we well, we called it the on air radio show.
[00:15:39] Unknown:
We couldn't think of anything up more original than that at the moment. So that just that was like our working title and it just stuck with it. There's usually a big sign that says that whenever you're on the radio. Well, yeah. Actually, I have one over my head here, but you just can't Yeah. See? It's out of the range. But, the, it was it was a it was one of those anything and everything shows, kinda like what I'm what I'm trying to do with this one. And, but the fun part was is that it we we did a lot of political talk. We we covered a range of subjects and it but it wasn't strictly politics. We had a bunch of different segments that we would do and it was a lot of fun. We we enjoyed it. I was the I was the conservative voice in the group. Big JP was the liberal voice in the group, and Joey Drapes, we used to call him the voice of God because he would step in when Jay and I would start arguing and break up the fight and, you know, bring peace and
[00:16:27] Unknown:
and happiness to everybody. Oh, well, he's a peacemaker. I gotcha. Well, he had a vested interest because
[00:16:33] Unknown:
if big JP went off the deep end, he'd start smashing things. So Oh, for sure. For sure. And and and his studio. We called him big JP for a reason because he was Yeah. Big big guy. Oh, okay. Yeah. So, Sometimes you do that ironically, and I I wasn't sure. So maybe he's a little JP, really, but Well, it he might he may have been a little JP, but, you know, the rest of him the rest of him was a big JP. But, Oh, there you go. But he was a he was a good guy. I I love JP. He was he was a good friend, and, we haven't spoken. He's still back in New York then? Oh, yeah. Yeah. We haven't spoken in a while, but, but,
[00:17:08] Unknown:
maybe because that little JP crack.
[00:17:11] Unknown:
Maybe. Maybe. One of the things he used to love to do to us was, if if he was losing his argument, he would mute our mics because he had the master board in front of him. He was running the board. Okay. Yeah. So he would like to mute our mics. And we actually took advantage of that at, in one show we did. We brought on a guy, just to kinda help us do some research, because I was doing all the research. I was putting together all the show notes and all that stuff. And so, anytime they would want some information, I'd be over here on the computer looking, and I'm not great at multitasking. So, you know, I I wasn't really getting involved in too much of the conversations.
So we brought this guy on, his name was Alan. We called him Alan the Jew, and we gave him it was it was a totally un PC show, my friend. Totally. No, that's fine. Was he Jewish or was he? Oh, yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Big time. Yeah. Oh, okay. Well, there you go. We actually gave him a segment called Alan's Two Cents, where the image was a hand holding two pennies. Oh, okay. So just to kinda go with the Alan the Jew thing. Right. Yeah. It's cheap. Yeah. Exactly. And, you know, we told him, you don't have to tell us what you do, what you're gonna talk about. You just, you know, we're gonna take a break at like at like 07:30 or whatever it was. And, when we come back from the break, you're gonna pick it up. You're gonna start it, and you know, just give us an idea of what you're talking about, and this way we can have something in mind as how we're gonna respond to it. And, he was like, alright fine. And he would, and he would come up with some really wild funny stuff. But, what what what JP and I did was is we wanted to we wanted to test his metal.
His his broadcasting metal. Mhmm. So what we did is we we, for for about three or four shows before we did it, he we set up a, a little scenario where Jay and I would come into the studio on show nights, and we would be bickering as we come in. And we'd be pretending to be angry at each other, and all that stuff. And he would antagonize me. I'd antagonize him during the show. He'd mute my mic and I would get pissed off and all that stuff. And, so we set it up and and, Joey Drapes was involved in it also. But he was, you know, he was like, you just do what you gotta do. I I just, you know, just leave me out. I'm ready to break up any fight. Right. That's what he said. He was the bouncer. So, so, you know, we we went through the show, and we came up on, you know, the the first big story that we were gonna cover.
And, Jay would mute my mic, and then I would get pissed, and I would start yelling at him. And I took the cans off, I threw him down on the table. I said, you know what? Screw this, f this, fuck this. I'm out of here. I'm leaving. And I would I got up and I walked out of the studio. I stood outside the door. Jay was like, you know what? F that. I'm not doing this either. He took his cans off. He threw him down there. He walked out, and the two of us are standing outside the studio door yelling at each other, you know, but like leaning up against the wall, you know, just yelling.
And, and, we left Alan sitting there with Joey, and, Alan was just like, okay. Well, Stock market today. Yeah. Not sure what we're gonna do now, but, and he he went to Joe. He was like, should should I do my segment? He goes, we're we're on the air. You have to do something. You know? Poor guy. Oh, Oh, it was it was hysterical. Alan? Oh, my gosh. Alan, he he then left us and became a corrections officer so we don't mess with him. Well, yeah. Then he could be have a little more control. Yeah. Yeah. He just need a little more control in his life. And, you have New York corrections. New York City corrections. So you don't mess with it. Yeah. So then you could beat people up and get away with it. Exactly. Exactly so. So I don't know if that's true. No. No. Anything I say tonight may or may not be true, just as a disclaimer here. We'll we'll make sure we include a disclaimer in the notes as well. You know, you know No. I'm gonna be handing out medical advice later. So Names will be changed. Protect the innocent. You don't need to be taking that to heart either. No. Of course not. No. We don't just like all the vitamins that I push, you know, we don't we don't, you know, I don't recom I don't tell you to take them because, I have many medical training. I just I take them myself and I get a benefit out of it. So, Right. Your results may vary. That's correct. Very good, sir. Very good.
So, so one of the things that that I was looking through the profile that you have up on on PodMatch. Yeah. And and I saw some things that we were talking about that, I wanted to kinda get into with you. Because I I'm very much interested in, like, the UAPs, u a u a, UFOs, u USOs, all that nonsense. And I know I know UAPs, u a UFOs are the same crap now. They just changed the name to confuse
[00:21:36] Unknown:
Just playing the
[00:21:37] Unknown:
acronym Bingo. Yeah. Yeah. Just to confuse everybody, I I think, or make it look like they're doing something. Message. That's it. That's exactly. Yeah. So, a couple days ago, I had a gentleman on the phone, on the phone on the show named, John Rarity who's involved with, I don't know if you know Steven Greer, doctor Steven Greer. Oh, yeah. Okay. Yeah. He worked with with doctor Greer. CE five or whatever. Exactly. Right? Yes. Exactly. Which is which to me is you know, we we were talking about it a little bit. I and I I wanted to bring it up, but I didn't. And and I kinda regret not doing it. But, so I watched this documentary. I don't know if you saw it on, on CE five, Close Encounters of the Fifth Kind. Yeah. I've seen it. So if anybody's listening and maybe they didn't cast the other show, Close Encounters of the Fifth Kind is, human initiated contact with extraterrestrial
[00:22:24] Unknown:
intelligence. Yeah. They shoot lasers and stuff into this sky.
[00:22:28] Unknown:
Yeah. Which I'm not sure is such a great idea.
[00:22:32] Unknown:
I mean, you know. You know, you have you do have At least they're not shooting them in each other's eyeballs. I mean, that would be Like, you do have bad You do have aircraft up there, you know? You never know. Yeah. Well, you get in trouble for that, but I think, typically we're at least from the documentary where they were at, there was not a huge amount of, aircraft.
[00:22:51] Unknown:
No. I think they have tracker apps too that you could Yeah. Oh, yeah. See what's in there. It's great. Have you ever played with that? It's Oh, yeah. Yeah. I have. Yeah. I have actually. Yeah. What's the name of it now? I'm about to find it. I have one on my phone here. Yeah. What? Flight radar 24 is one of them. Yeah. Well, you know yeah. One is one that I used to use was called Flight Radar. I don't know if Flight Radar 24 or not, but, but I remember Flight Radar. And, because I was always looking to see what government planes were flying overhead, you know, like I like I told you in a private message when I decided to, you know, work on it. Those those don't always come up. That's the funny thing. No. They don't. Government planes don't always show up. You know, everything's supposed to have a transponder, but holy hell, they don't. You see them up in the sky, and they're not on the on the app. So go figure. Yeah. And, down here well, where I am anyway in Texas, I live I live on the border, with Mexico. I'm in Eagle Pass. And, so that's where, I don't know if you remember when the state of Texas had the standoff with the federal government at Shelby Park, over the border crossings. I'm I'm about a mile and a half away from Shelby Park where all that took place. Wow. Oh, yeah. Yeah. That was great. It was wild. Wild stuff. Sure is. Sure is. That's why I you know, one of the reason I love living in Texas is that I get to open carry and, you know, so I felt perfectly fine or perfectly safe.
I wear my cowboy. I felt fine. They all had assault rifles, but I was fine. I was good. I I had I had my nine millimeter. I was fine. I'm okay. But, but, so yeah. So we were we were talking about c e five, and, one of the things that came that that I came across from me watching that documentary was that, how how much of a religious type of experience this was. And and it it kinda worried me a little bit that, you know, this is how cults start. Could be. You know? And it it Could be. It's kinda interesting to watch. But, but this guy, he was good. I mean, you might wanna, you know, check him out if you can find him on on podcast. Well, I I he has a lot of, weird stuff. He's probably here lately. It seems like he's got about a documentary a year since around '29. Oh, I'm talking about John. I'm not talking about Steven Greer. He's not a doctor. Oh, I thought you meant Steven Greer. I'm sorry. Well, actually, I emailed Steven Greer through his website to see if you wanna come on the show, but I'm not, you know, I'm the one. Yeah. No. I'm just like, no. I'm a doctor. Yeah. I'm a doctor. I'm a well known documentarian, and I'm going on a cruise. Right. Yeah. And I'm taking I'm taking all my followers on a cruise, in Right. I'm doing that. In a couple of months. Doing laps in the Mediterranean for big money. Well, no. He's really taking people on a cruise. They're going on a on a a contact event cruise in in, I think in April. Yeah. Well, it's

he's he's become a bit of an industry, I think. It's just like, you know, what, AlienCon. Right? So Giorgio Soukalos from History Channel does alien con now with all the all the talking heads on his show. And I think that's, you know, it's kind of a similar situation. It's a little bit of commerce in with the all the, alien business. It is. And Which is fine. I mean, I see no no problem with it if that's your interest. No. Of course not. I it's just, you know, it's just kind of an it to me, it's just, you know, you had you what do you wanna say? You need money to do things.
Right? But the my question is always, you know, how much money do you need? And then when does it become you talked about being a cult. When does it become a commercial venture, as opposed to something that is actually trying to solve something? Right. Yeah. I I I agree with that.
[00:26:24] Unknown:
Yeah. One of the interesting things about, Giorgio Tsoukalos is, in that show that he has the, was it Ancient Aliens?
[00:26:31] Unknown:
Ancient Aliens. Yeah.
[00:26:33] Unknown:
Otherworldly Adventures. The have you ever checked out that magazine that he that he pushes?
[00:26:41] Unknown:
I couldn't find it. I actually looked for it once, and I could not find it. Yeah. Exactly. I mean, I didn't do a big hard search. You know what I mean? But I just threw it in a couple of things, and I'm like, where is this? It's gotta be online. I mean, what's the point in this day and age of having a magazine that's not online? Well, that was the thing. I I was I wanted to subscribe, and I wanted to see what he had to offer. And so I went looking for the web. I went I followed the websites, and I all the links that that popped up when I did the search, and and I found a website.
[00:27:09] Unknown:
I I'm just drawing a blank on it right now, but I found the website. Legend Legendary
[00:27:15] Unknown:
Times.
[00:27:16] Unknown:
Right. Yes. Legendary Times. And there was nothing on there. It was it was like a it was like, you know, coming soon, coming soon, you know. Right. Yeah. It's just a placeholder. Right. Yeah. Placeholder website, placeholder placeholder articles.
[00:27:29] Unknown:
There's a GoDaddy in the corner. Yeah.
[00:27:32] Unknown:
I don't know if he said that. I'm just joking. Oh, I know. I know. I know. But, yeah. It it's it was it's it's a scam. It's all a scam.
[00:27:39] Unknown:
Yeah. So well, and I think that's, unfortunately, that's an unfortunate, situation because obvious I mean, if we're well, let's just dive in. Shall we, Joe? Please. Let's do that. Obviously, people are seeing things. People are experiencing things, and these are real, real people having real experiences. And they're not imagining things I don't believe. And they, you know, are affected. They're some people are traumatized. Some people are mesmerized. Some people, you know, don't ever wanna talk about it again. And this is all real. And so, you know, I that's why I kinda mentioned the industry thing. It's like, you know, at some point, it's kinda like Bigfoot in a way because Bigfoot's an industry now too, is that we have aliens as an industry.
Mhmm. And these are a couple of examples. Now I think possible well, you know, possibly there was good intentions at some point, and then, you know, hey. It's you you make a certain amount of money and you're like, wait a minute. I can just do this. Right. And it kind of takes off from there. I hopefully, you know, like, yeah, like podcasting. Yeah. Well, you know, the, but hopefully there's still a bit of, you know, that initial, reasoning behind it that you actually want to solve something. You know, the the problem is once things become an industry that's based on a mystery, then people never wanna solve the mystery because then there goes the industry.
Mhmm. And I don't think that that's, you know, a good thing. Same thing. I mean, you could say the same thing happens in pharmaceutical companies. The same thing happens in everything. So, you know, once there becomes a certain amount of money involved in it, then, you know, solving something is really not that important. It's perpetuating the money. And, I I think that's just sad because there's so many, honest, real people out there who have these experiences and they, you know, they're looking for answers because they don't have the resources or the time or, any number of things to continue this. Mhmm. And, you know, they look to these kind of things that are a little more prominent to to answer some of those questions. And, on it, you know, unfortunately they've moved on to, you know, you know, Walt Disney company kind of situation where they're just making characters and
[00:30:14] Unknown:
selling their likeness. There you go. Have you ever had an experience?
[00:30:18] Unknown:
I have. Really? Tell me about it. I have. Yeah. Actually, back in 02/2005, it was May. It was about 04:00 in the afternoon. I was outside and, pushing my kids on a swing. Isn't that just sound idyllic? Oh, perfect. Beautiful. And yeah. And, at the time, my, son was was very small, and he liked to see the planes fly overhead. And so I was watching for planes, and I'd say, hey. Look, buddy. There's a plane. And he'd be like, oh, you know, it's great. Kind of, outdoorsy entertainment kind of stuff. And I caught out of the corner of my eye a sphere. Okay.
A a ball. Right? A silverish metal looking. I mean, you know, wasn't like, you know, aluminum looking. I don't know what it was. It was it just looked metal. It was up high in the air about seemed like where the planes were flying and about four times larger. And, I happened to catch it, as it was going overhead, and I basically watched it from almost horizon, caught it right quick, on one side of the horizon that went all the way across to the other. And I mean, the whole experience lasted maybe twenty, twenty five seconds. I had little kids. They didn't look Of course. They couldn't be my witnesses. Right. I didn't say anything to them because I was just watching this thing go overhead.
And I was I was just dumbfounded. I was like, this is nuts.
[00:31:52] Unknown:
I had And, yeah. It's weird. Right? It is weird. I I I had I had one experience in my life and it was fairly recent. It was about two two years ago. I was flying back from New York, from my my mom had passed away, so I I was on the way back. And, I don't I don't often sit by a window, because I don't like to fly. There's just something unnatural about it for a human being to be flying. But, but I I just happened on this particular occasion was sitting, by the window. And I didn't have my cell phone with me, and I I, you know, I I had it put away, and, so I wasn't like filming or or recording or anything like that. And, so I'm looking out the window, we and we were over some, some really open flat, like, flyover country, I guess.
And, just out of Ohio. Probably, yeah. And, just out of the out of the corner of my eye coming from the from the right to the left, it it was way too close to be a commercial aircraft, and was to me anyway, it was moving way too fast. And it it like shot by the window, and it was elongated, I guess, because of the speed that it was traveling. Mhmm. It did not look like a plane. It did not look like a small like, private aircraft. It was definitely not a commercial air way too fast for that. And again, way too close. You know, it's because you you you I know that there's traffic lanes in, Yeah. You know, in in the airspace above us, but yeah, way too close.
So I don't know what it was, but all I know is that I saw that thing, and I was kicking myself afterwards. I didn't have my phone in my hand like everybody else does always, ever. You're you're never going that's the funny thing. We've,
[00:33:44] Unknown:
here at the at my house, we laugh about that because, and we're we're not seeing, you know, spacecraft or anything, but we I live out in the country and we always see animals. Right. And we always laugh because nobody, we all have a phone and generally people are carrying them around the house there, but nobody's got a picture of any of these. Like I saw a beaver one day out in the backyard. You know, how, how often do you see that? You know what I mean? True. Yeah. Nobody took a picture. We had a Wolf in the backyard. No one took a picture of it. Watched the wolf walk through the backyard. I seen a fox Yeah. Like a fox with, like, the largest fox I've ever seen in my life. It was like a a weightlifter fox or something. It's just this big giant muscular fox comes trotting through the yard. A turkey.
I mean, these are things that, you know, squirrels and rabbits. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. A dog. Could it have been a fox watch? Dogs. Yeah. What's that? Could it have been a fox watch? Fox watch. No, I don't know. But he was, this thing was, you know, he was, he was in charge of wherever he came from and where he was going. Cause he walked like it and he didn't care if anybody saw him. And, but anyway, we never get pictures of any of it. So the fact that people get pictures of anything is miraculous because that's what, whenever I saw my thing, Miles, because I talked about it on the show back in 02/2005 and he's like, well, didn't you go get a picture? I'm like, no, I was just dumbfounded by this thing happening.
I was mesmerized. I just was watching it. I was like, I've never seen there's nothing like this that exists in the world that flies over your house. Running into the house to get my phone is not the first thing on my mind at that moment. Well, in twenty, two thousand and five, the phone cameras were crap. So it didn't matter if I had my phone camera on me, I had to go get a camera and it happened so quickly. It was all daylight. I mean, it was broad daylight And 04:00 in the afternoon in May, it's not dark at all. And so, you know, it but you just get you're like, your brain kinda just it goes into calculations, you know, am I seeing this? Is this a plane? Is this and then you're, like, doing your, you know, flashcards in your mind, trying to figure out what the hell this thing was.
And, you just don't get it. And until you get put in that position where you're seeing something that your brain isn't registering, even if it's just as simple as a beaver popping out in the backyard, you you're not used to it. And so then all of a sudden, you just become totally fixated on it, and you don't think to take a picture. You don't think to do anything. You're trying to process the situation exactly. And make sense of it, unless it's there for a, you know, a good long time, like minutes, like five minutes or something. Chance, which is really is like an eternity when you think about it. Yeah. But, into everybody everyone who has never had an experience is always, oh, why don't you take a picture? And it's like, you know, goddamn it. Have you done anything in your life or seen anything weird? Right.
No, I don't think so. You know, you, you know, it, it, it just doesn't work that way. And it it's the same for everybody. And then some people are in total denial. And so they may have saw it and then totally just say, I can't believe in this. I can't open my mind to this even happening. And so it happens and then they never even register, that it occurred because they don't want it to occur. Right. And it it's amazing because, you know, pareidolia. Right? You talk about pareidolia. You talk about how strong your brain is at at filling in the pieces. So if you catch a glimpse of something, like, you caught a glimpse of something and you're trying to make sense of it. Well, some people will just okay. That was another plane. Mhmm. Boy, that was a close call. Good thing we didn't die. Right.
You know? And then they go on with their lives and and that's it. And but I think it's, everybody's different and everybody, processes a little bit differently. And so therefore, you just have to be kind of a perfect combination, to witness something, be there at the right time, and happen to catch it because it's not, you know, happening every minute. And then also being able to believe yourself and say, okay. This is what I saw. Right. I got confirmation for mine, so I was in denial a little bit. I saw it. I I know I saw something, but I was trying to process it. And then at the time, in 02/2005, I went on online. There's a thing called UFO Maps, and somebody in the neighboring town saw the same thing at the same time. And so then to me, that cemented that it actually happened.
Because I was honestly, I was like, did I really did I see this? Is this really happening?
[00:38:37] Unknown:
And you just kinda question yourself. Oh, yeah. I thought I thought the same thing too, when I saw that thing fly by the window like that. I I was like, you know, first of all, it was broad daylight as well. It was, you know, like, middle of the afternoon. It wasn't it's not something that I could have said, oh, that that was just something off way off in the distance there that, looked like it was moving. But no. No. No. This was But
[00:38:59] Unknown:
who I mean, everybody reacts differently and it and it I've told that story. It's funny. I'm glad that you, had something happen to the daylight. I've told that story to other people who are people who believe in these things have seen things generally at night, seen lights and whatnot. And I tell them that story. It says, bring during the daylight and they go, oh, so you saw a light in the sky? Like, no, I saw a fucking ship. Yes. And they're like, oh, you saw the light? Like I saw a light. I'm like, no, no, no. And then eventually I quit arguing with them because they never could get it through their head that it was during the day.
It, it amazes me because, because I mean, they experienced something as well. Yeah. And so, but it, it, it,
[00:39:45] Unknown:
it's It's all coming from our own perspective. It's almost it's almost like they it's almost like they they want you to believe what they saw, but have a hard but have a hard time believing in what you saw because you saw it at a different time of day.
[00:39:58] Unknown:
Exactly. And I was I think that's funny. But, yeah. I've had it happen more than once, and I'm like, wait. No. It wasn't. It's 04:00 in May. I don't live in Australia for Christ's sake. I live in the Midwest and St. Louis. Right. You know, so, but anyway, it's just funny how everybody experiences these things differently. And, but now the thing is I don't, I don't prescribe to say what I saw was extra terrestrial necessarily because I'm missing some facts here. Right? Maybe we did have in 02/2005, a flying ball, which they've never revealed in over twenty years. I don't know. But pre drones. But I just saw it, and that's what I and it moved. It didn't make a lot of noise. You know? It didn't whoosh by. It didn't beam into my head and tell me don't look this way. Mhmm.
It it just happened and there it was. But I do believe that we've had so, you know, so many things happen over time that are unexplainable. And, you know, some of them are lights in the sky and, you know, some of them are daytime. But there's been so many that it just can't all be, you know, ball lightning in swamp gas. Of course not. Everybody keeps saying.
[00:41:26] Unknown:
And that and that that Mhmm. I'm sorry. Go ahead. Oh, but it also doesn't mean it's extraterrestrial,
[00:41:32] Unknown:
but I mean, we're talking, you know, you go way back into the stories and, and there's, you know, back into the eighteen hundreds, they've had these sightings and, and documented in the newspaper and what have you. In fact, in Texas, right? It was an Odessa, Texas is a big story back in the eighteen hundreds. And so back then we didn't have a a a ball ship that was flying around. I mean, you know, it wasn't a cannonball either. It was going in a straight line. No no no arc of trajectory. Right.
[00:42:04] Unknown:
And then also you have you have these, you'd be these these, Egyptian hieroglyphics that they found that look where the the depiction looks almost like, like a Blackhawk helicopter. Do you have you ever seen those? Yeah. I mean, that's what that's wild stuff.
[00:42:22] Unknown:
Yeah. And and they and the thing is, you know, they still don't know what all those things mean. They they love everybody. I'll tell you, anybody with any, you know, what do you want to say? Somebody is going to be authority on everything. And if they're the authority, they're going to tell you, I know what that is. But the reality is we don't, we don't even know how our own bodies work half the time and things happen in our brains and we don't know how that works. But, but once you become an authority figure, you have to be the authority. And so when you're the authority, then you can't, you know, go around saying, what was that? And then you, the authority and you go, I don't know. Right.
And then they're like, well, I thought you were the authority. And it's like, well, and then now guess what? You're not the authority anymore. And so everybody wants to hold their position. This kind of gets to the money. Like, we were talking about the money thing earlier. Mhmm. You you if you're gonna be an authority person, you have to seem definitive and you have to seem like, you know, all of this, whether you know it or not is immaterial.
[00:43:29] Unknown:
That's true. It's a position that you stake, and you have to hold that position or else you lose it. As much as you'd like to be honest and say, well, look, you know what? I don't know. You can't because then especially if you're making if this is your living, and this is what you do for you know, you make your money. Yeah. And you come back and say, well, I don't know. Beast the fuck out. Beast the fuck out of you. I think
[00:43:50] Unknown:
and I mean, that's with everything, you know, you you don't wanna go to a doctor who is wish you are she. Yeah. Yeah. That's for sure. Joe, it could be cancer or it could just be some of those microplastics you've been reading about. I don't know.
[00:44:05] Unknown:
Let's just try this here. Which reminds me, I got a I got a funny story about that. So, about, about doctors and self diagnoses.
[00:44:16] Unknown:
Oh, no. Yeah. Just
[00:44:18] Unknown:
I love and if I I I think my doctor listens from time to time, so I'm gonna be very careful about how I say this. I don't wanna make him look bad or sound bad, but I love my doctor. He's great. You know, I'm not gonna say names or anything like that to protect the innocent, but, I I I had a bit of a health scare about a year and a half or so ago. And, went to the doctor, did all the tests, the blood work, the the scans and all that stuff, and they still couldn't figure out what the hell was going on. So I got tired I got tired of being poked and prodded, so I started doing my own research.
And, I went on to a bunch of different websites, medical websites, like clinics like Mayo Clinic, and all that stuff, and started doing all this research, and I came up with I came up with a diet. I say, alright, well I have this, this, this, I'm experiencing that, I'm experiencing that, this is happening for sure. Okay, so what's this? And I I put it put it all together, made an appointment, went back to my doctor, and I walked in and he was like, so what's going on? I said, this is what I have, this is what you need to prescribe me, and it'll take care of it in this amount of time. And he goes, and when did you get your medical degree?
And I was like, well it's not a matter of me getting a medical degree, it's a matter of me trying to figure out the hell's wrong with me because nobody else seemed to It's all a puzzle, yeah. You know? And so he took my advice and, gave me the medications that I told him I needed
[00:45:42] Unknown:
and went home. I said Let me put my stamp of approval on this. Just a minute, Joe. Okay.
[00:45:48] Unknown:
That's what he said. Went home. Let me take a look at that. I went home. I did everything. I had to I followed all my own self prescribed instructions and all that stuff. And, went back to the doctor in, like, a month, and, I I had no issues. I was fine. Whatever it was that I was dealing with was was done. It was gone. And, I said to him, I said, well, you see, I was right. He goes, well, doctor, I concur.
[00:46:11] Unknown:
Oh, good. I love that line. I concur. Like, that's wonderful. You know? But but you Just so you don't know. Can't know everything. So Just so you don't know. Yeah. That's right. Yeah. That's the hardest thing to do, I think, is to say you don't know. Exactly. I mean, I don't know a lot of stuff. So who, you know? Very true. We're just all spitting in the wind here and hoping that it's not blowing our direction. So
[00:46:36] Unknown:
Farting in the wind. Hope it doesn't come back at us. I have two French bulldogs if and so if you ever been around a French bulldog, you know exactly what I mean by that. Yeah. French French bulldogs are the worst when it comes to that stuff. My boy They make a lot of noise. Oh, yeah. My my boy my boy, Charlie, at night he sleeps well, I have two like I said, I have two. I have a boy and a girl. My boy is three. My girl is four. And, the boy, when we go to bed at night, he sleeps next to me on the bed, but he he lays across the pillow with his head resting on the nightstand.
Okay. And and his and his That's bad move on your part. Yeah. And then his butt's right, like, right here.
[00:47:19] Unknown:
And Yeah. You're getting blasted.
[00:47:21] Unknown:
One one night, I I and I had my back to him, and I rolled over. And exactly at the moment that I rolled over, he let one go. And when I tell you, it went right I was like, good grief. What the hell did you eat, dude? And then I remembered that I made braised pork chops that night, and that's what he had for dinner. Oh. So He had leftovers. Oh, no. No. I cooked for them. They Oh, you cooked for them? Oh, fantastic. They they get, they get everything. They they Fresh cuts got nothing on you. No, sir. No, sir. They they got, let's see.

Wow. Golly. They've had roasted chicken breasts. They've had braised pork chops. They've had I'll be taking over Charlie's position. Well, yeah. Yeah. That that actually, that that that that subject came up today at at the job too. They were they were talking about something, and I wasn't really paying attention. It was during the morning meeting. I never really pay attention. But, because 99
[00:48:25] Unknown:
Except when I have to. Well, 99.9%
[00:48:27] Unknown:
of what they talk about has nothing to do with my department, so I don't really, you know Oh, gotcha. Doesn't affect me. So, but they they start talking about something, and they they said, well well well, you like to cook, don't you? I'm like, what? I was like, Just for dogs. I said, well, what does that have to do with the conversation? What what did I miss?
[00:48:47] Unknown:
Yeah. So I had you know, we're make we're pivoting. We're gonna become one of those home, those home kit,
[00:48:54] Unknown:
companies where you're gonna give all the ingredients and put it together yourself. There you go. So I had a they made me go through my phone and show everybody pictures of the plates and stuff that I've done. And and there we go. Oh, you played them for them too. Wow. Well, I played it first, take a picture of it, then I give it to them. You know? Oh, okay. Here we go. Make it look like a mom. Favorite pets. Wow. Oh, very, very much. I mean, I love my I love my kids. I went through Good. On a on a more serious note. The and the reason why I do this for them is because, and this is like a serious moment, but, I went through a period of, where I went through a a a huge amount of loss very very close. I lost my dad. Six months later, I lost my grandmother.
And then, I lost my wife, through divorce. And then right after that, I lost my mom. All of that within a year and a half.
[00:49:42] Unknown:
Okay? Wow.
[00:49:45] Unknown:
And, everything like and was not expecting it expecting a divorce. Obviously, was not expecting to lose my mom and everything like that. My dad, we knew was sick and we knew that you know, it was that time was coming. My grandmother was 90 years old, so we knew that was coming too. But, you know, all of it come at the same time. But, so I went through a very, very bad period of time where I struggled. And, you know, when I was at my lowest and at my worst, and, you know, I I and I I say this exaggerating the situation, so don't misunderstand. But, you know, when I was when I was laying on the floor in the bathroom, you know, broken in half, basically, you know, it was my dogs that were there with me.
Yeah. You know, they were the ones that were there that that that lifted me through it. They're the ones, that gave me a reason to wake up every day. Mostly because they don't have thumbs, so they can't open the Right. You know, the food for themselves, so I have to feed them. You know? So, so, that's why I spoil them and I give them everything because they they gave me everything. So Oh, that's very nice. I love I love pleasant story. I love my babies. To hear. I love my babies. And as a matter of fact, Charlie is sitting at the door of the studio right now. I hear him whining under the door because I've been in here too long for him. So but he'll he'll get over. He'll be alright.
So we'll Like, where's that filet mignon, buddy? No. I I think he's looking for the bourbon tonight. It's Friday. Oh, the bourbon. It's it's Friday night. Yeah. You know, he's my drinker. He's he's my drinking buddy, and, you know, don't think don't think this is coffee, pal. You know? So There you go. You know, they like they say, you know, you go into your go into your meetings in the morning, just blow on it. You know, people think it's hot coffee or something like that, but it's, you know Think it's coffee. Yeah. So There you go. But, Tip of the week. There there you go. And then and the more you know, the more you know.
More you know. See, I I gotta get some sound effects for that, like, over here. The more you know, the more you the more you know, the more you know.
[00:51:43] Unknown:
There you go. Okay.
[00:51:46] Unknown:
I just messed up my whole board here, but okay. Oh my gosh. So, another thing that, you know, we talked when we we were messaging back and forth, we were talking about talking about UFOs, UAPs, USOs, all that stuff, and paranormal stuff and and whatnot. So, have you have you ever had a because again, you know, paranormal, I guess you could kinda group in UFO sightings with paranormal supernatural stuff. Mhmm. Have you ever had a a ghost experience?
[00:52:19] Unknown:
I have actually. Yeah. I don't know how I don't think I gave you too many details. So hopefully, this will be fresh for you. Oh, no. No. You didn't tell me really much of anything. I was just reading your profile. Okay. Good. I can't remember. The, so
[00:52:31] Unknown:
I tried I tried to get you to call me before the show, but you didn't wanna do it for some reason. Well, I love to go in cold. This is, this is my thing. I love the cold,
[00:52:39] Unknown:
the cold thing. So we just jump right in and start chatting and see how it goes. The, so, yeah, I do. And and but my thought is it could all be the same thing. That's that's my thing. Everybody loves to as a people, we love to compartmentalize. Right? So we're like, okay. These are ghost things, and these are alien things. And then these are, you know, demon things or these are whatever things as far as we don't know what it is and it could all be the same goddamn thing. We don't know. True. Right? Because they all have these properties that are very similar in nature to each other, where it's fleeting, it's vague. It's, you know, it it, you know, it happens. They love to try to attribute, things to this, like, paranormal, for instance. Right?
Well, it gets cold. Right? Right. But it doesn't get cold every time. It only gets cold when it gets cold. And it's like, it has to be repeatable folks. You know what I mean? Right. You have to have things happen with some kind of a regular interval that corresponds with the same thing that you saw before, not a random thing. And, and so it always drives me nuts whenever everybody just jumps to these things. Well, we're in a prison, so it was one of the prison guards. We just saw a prison guard. That's what that ghost was. It was a prison guard. Who the fuck knows? We don't know. Exactly.
There's nothing that he didn't have a badge or an ID, didn't flip out his, you know, government issued something or another. You got no fucking clue what's going on. So quit jumping. You know what I mean? It could all be the same thing, but in that vein, I'll tell you my quick story here. So, we had a bit of a tragedy myself here, but, our house burnt down. And so we had to go live someplace else for a while while everything got sorted out and, rebuilt, whatever. And that took about a year. And, so we lived in a hotel for a while, but then we moved into a rental house. And, so we moved in this rental house with absolutely nothing. Right? We show up and basically we've got just a few clothes that we've accumulated over the course of a month living in a hotel and no furniture or anything. So we get to this rental house.
My wife, God bless her, on Amazon has bed frames and mattresses in a box all delivered on the day we moved in. Right. So the, the poor Amazon guy shows up and has to hoof all this crap to the porch. And then I had to put it all together. So, we rented this house and, you know, it was in like a cul de sac type neighborhood. And so the neighbors were coming over. Oh, I'm so sorry. I heard that your house burnt down and, you know, and I had to go through, I'm not a, believe it or not, I'm not a super social guy, in the real world here. Me neither. And, and so I had talked to everybody. Podcasts are like that. Yeah. I know. We're kind of, you know, a little bit, introverted in a certain sense. And, so I talked to everybody and so forth. And one of the people there was kinda like this car salesman guy. He's like, hey, Bob. You know? Don't worry about it. It's gonna be alright. Hey. Hey. You know?
And, I'm like, hey. That's great. Yeah. Whatever. He happened to be one of the neighbors on one side of the house. And so I'm like, yeah. Well, I gotta put all these beds together if we wanna sleep tonight instead of sleeping on the floor Right. Which I'm not really wanting to do. And so I go in and put the beds and everything. Well, as we're kind of poking around the house, we noticed that the basement, door locked so that you couldn't come out of the basement. Not that if you went in the basement, you could lock people from coming into the basement. Okay. And there was a bell. So when you opened the door, it rang a bell.
[00:56:38] Unknown:
Okay.
[00:56:39] Unknown:
Hanging up off of the rafters, unfinished basement. Okay. And I'm like, that's really weird. We didn't think much of it. So, anyway, get everything together and, go to bed. So that night I wake up, I don't know, sometime in the middle of the night. I have no idea what time it was because we didn't have an alarm clock or anything. I have my phone, but I didn't look at it, I guess. And I look over, we didn't have any curtains, but we had, blinds, like mini blinds. And I see a shadow, which I'm thinking is outside on these mini blinds. Okay.
[00:57:20] Unknown:
I would have thought the same thing.
[00:57:22] Unknown:
Yeah. And so it's like a person kind of like swaying back and forth. And I'm like, that fucking neighbor car salesman guy is looking in my window. That's what I thought. Yeah. Why not? But I was exhausted because of all this, you know, turmoil of getting situated, you know, and making all these beds and stuff. And so I go back to sleep. And this is this is when we first moved in. So the next morning I get up and my son comes to me. He's, like a teenager, you know, like high school age.
[00:57:56] Unknown:
Okay.
[00:57:57] Unknown:
And he goes, and, he goes, dad, a shadow came through my door and try to grab my leg.
[00:58:09] Unknown:
Really?
[00:58:10] Unknown:
Yeah. That's interesting. He was up. He, we had gotten him an iPad, while we were at the hotel. So he has stuff to do because everything's gone. Right. You got nothing. And so, you know, give him something to do. And, and so he said, yeah, I was playing the game or whatever, and this thing happened. And then I, you know, ran out of the room. I didn't wanna bother you. And I was staying in the living room with all lights on, which is where we found him. And I'm like, in my head, I'm like, wait a minute. Hold on a second. I saw this thing in our bedroom, but I thought was outside of that was a weird neighbor.
Maybe it was inside standing in front of that window. Right. Of course. And I realized that I saw the same thing that he saw and, but we have to wait a year. And it's not like I could rent a number of houses because I don't know if people realize, but whenever your house burns down, you still pay your mortgage. Oh, yeah. Yeah. They don't, they don't stop that. Even though there's no house, you still gotta pay the mortgage. And so I'm like, we're stuck in this house now. And so I had to be, you know, the dad and I said, oh, I'm sure it was nothing, buddy. I'm sure you're just tired. And you just imagine this whole thing.
So I go, if it happens again, you know, let me know, you know, we'll see what's going on. So couple nights go by. He's like, I was up late. I come out to the kitchen and that thing was walking through the kitchen and walked out to the garage. Really? Yeah. I'm like, again, again, we're we still got like months to go on this lease. I'm like, I'm sure it was nothing. Don't worry about it. If it happens again, you know, I'm sound like a broken record at this point. I'm trying to placate him. I don't wanna tell him he didn't see it. I don't wanna tell him, you know, that he's being nutty or something, but I don't want him to be afraid of where we live.
Of course not. And so I placated him again. So we have this unfinished basement. We hear noises down there. There's absolutely nothing except for a hot water heater and a furnace in this basement. Is a concrete basement Always the basement. It not regularly. And I'm like, oh. So I haven't at this point, I am the only one who can corroborate with my son and I'm playing it down. I don't tell my wife. I don't tell anybody else in the house here. I'm like, I gotta play this through. Right? So we get a dog because we had animals and, they perished in the fire and we get a dog and the dog, you know, you gotta play with the dog. So we would take the dog downstairs and throw a tennis ball around, because it's just a big empty concrete room, Throw the tennis ball in one corner, dog wouldn't go get it ever.
So one corner of this basement, dog won't go there if the ball goes there. If it rolls there, if it's in that corner, he's not gonna touch it. It has to be outside of this area.
[01:01:31] Unknown:
That's weird. That is yeah. That's interesting.
[01:01:34] Unknown:
Which I always think animals, you know, they have different senses than we do. And so I agree. Yeah. I think they're a little more sensitive to certain things than we are, you know, hearing visually and so forth. So, so that was weird. So what we live through all this, so when we get we get done and, we finally move back into our house about about, nine, ten months later. And I I apologize to my son and my wife, and I admit, yes. I saw the same night I that you saw something come through your door. I saw the same thing. I'm sorry. I put you on for ten months because we couldn't there was nothing else. We we couldn't had nowhere else to go. You had to put the game face on.
Totally. And oh my gosh, my wife was so angry with me. Well, she was so angry with me. You did the right thing. I didn't tell her, but you did the right thing. I think so. I mean, I had to. Now now looking back at it, and and the other thing is I didn't talk about this for two years after it happened. Okay. So even on our show, which I talk about all kinds of kooky stuff, I I was so shaken by this whole experience and having to do this. I waited two years until I even mentioned it. And, I mean, because it was so bizarre and so disconcerting. Now looking back on it, you know, how being, almost six years now, since it happened, I think it was just seeing who we were.
It wasn't, you know, ominous. It wasn't a demon. It wasn't anything. I, I firmly believe it was some other form of a being
[01:03:21] Unknown:
interdimension, whatever you wanna call it.
[01:03:23] Unknown:
And it was like, well, what, what are these people doing here? And it checked us all out, and then it had, like, a place downstairs, you know, and it went down there and then lived its existence. And I'm sure it walked through the house again, and we just never happened to see it, and did it's it lived it existed with us for all this time. Nothing ever happened. No, no real negative things other than it scares the bejesus out of you. Yeah. But I think that it's just, you know,
[01:03:57] Unknown:
some other thing. That's a wild story, man.
[01:04:00] Unknown:
And then nothing ever happened when we moved home. It didn't come with me. It didn't contact me. It didn't talk to me. You know, and I didn't seek it either. I mean, I was, you know, I was pretty much like, you leave me alone. I'm gonna leave you alone. That was my edict in my head at least. Okay. And, and we just went about our married business. But, yeah, I think that's why I think, you know, everybody kinda puts when I started this, everybody kinda puts their own views onto these things when in reality, I think that it's totally something totally different.
[01:04:35] Unknown:
Yeah. I I could agree with you on that. I I think a lot of it is interdimensional stuff, and I think they just kinda pop in and out. It could be. You know? But, I do have a story I could tell you. It was just Sure. Kind of interesting. So, my my my ex wife and I, we had purchased our second home up in New when we were living up in New York, and, we bought the home from an estate. So the, the previous owners had passed away. They were the original owners of the house. The, the husband, the father passed away many, many years before, and the mom passed away maybe, I think, a year and a half or two years before we purchased the house.
And, my wife at the time, when we were up in in the in the bedroom, and we were just unpacking, like, all the bedding and all that stuff, and, the kids weren't home. They they were in school, and, I remember we were in the bedroom, and I was on one side of the bed, she was on the other, and we fluffed up the sheets, like, to pull them down and and to lay them down on the bed. And when we did that, when the sheet went up, we heard a a woman's voice as clear as day, like, as clear as you and I are speaking right now. Mhmm. Just like a whisper say, who is that? Just like that.
Weird. And when the when the sheet came down, my wife was looking at me. I was looking at her, and she was like, did you say something? I said, no. Did did you? So she goes, no. I said, what did you hear? So she was, no. No. No. No. No. What did you hear? Uh-oh. So I I said, what I heard? And she was like, yeah. That's that's what I heard. I said, okay. Well, let's just leave it at that. You know? I I guess that's Nothing else happened? Anything else? No. More stuff happened later. Oh. So so I I was I was downstairs in the kitchen, and the kitchen was kind of like a u shape. You know? So, there was like, like like the the the the sink countertop faced a step down to like a family room.
Mhmm. And, so I was washing dishes in the sink, and behind me was the stove, the dishwasher, and all that stuff. And, so I'm I'm washing dishes, and all of a sudden, I hear glass shatter behind me. I turn around, the whole front of the of the oven shattered. Oh, wow. Like completely shattered. That's terrible. Yeah. So I was like, alright. Now I know I didn't drop anything. I know I didn't throw anything over my shoulder to do that, and no nothing fell. So I thought that was kind of interesting, and I was like, alright. Well, I guess the previous owner's not too happy with us right now. So It may be. You know, so I I didn't, you know, I'd make a big deal over it. I just, you know, cleaned it all up, and I called the manufacturer, ordered a new piece of glass, came, I installed it. And, couple of days later, came down in the morning to get ready to go to work, glass was shattered again.
And, so I was like, alright. And I said, well, I'll I'll I'm gonna change this one more time. And after that, I'm not doing it anymore. That where there's no glass. We're just gonna heat the whole kitchen. That's exactly right. So I I changed it, and then nothing happened, after that. And then, it was another time where where, we had just finished having dinner, and we, my my wife was washing dishes. I was drying and putting them away, and, I opened up the the cupboard to put the the glasses away, and I put the glass down, and as soon as I put it down, wasn't like I I didn't like like slam it down. I just put it down, and it shattered. It was like just broke into a million pieces. So What what kind of glass was it? Was it fancy, or was it No. No. It was like a regular drinking glass. It was like something Regular Yeah. Okay. Like Target drinking glass. Kmart, Walmart, whatever. Yeah.
So so of course, I got yelled at, you know, from my wife. She was like, yeah. Be more careful. You know?
[01:08:25] Unknown:
What's slamming these glasses? Yeah. Yeah. Rust in the oven.
[01:08:29] Unknown:
So so, Picking glass out of cookies. Christ sake. So so, yeah. We clean clean all that stuff up, and that and it happened twice after that, but not like right on top of each other. Then, in in our basement, like I said, it's always the basement. Okay? Our basement was kinda like a it's like a semi finished basement, like I I if I would have put a a stove and all that stuff down, I could have probably rented out the basement and had, you know Oh, okay. Had a cool apartment. Yeah. I very easily could have done that. Had a private entrance coming in from the side. It was it was really nice. But that was like kinda like my little hideaway. Like I would go down there and study and, you know, do my workouts and stuff like that and, you know, whatnot.
But there was one spot in the house that just every time I passed by there, I I I would get like the the heebie jeebies. You know? Like all the hair in the back of your neck would stand up. So, so and and where it was is there was a a like a closet, and you open up the closet. It had the main drain for the house Oh, yeah. In that closet. That's that. Yeah. Exactly. And and it was just, you know, it was all the all those water connections. And I remember, you know, I I grew I, you know, I I grew up, in a somewhat religious home. And, as I got older, I I became a born again Christian, and, I've studied scripture a lot, and, you know, I was very active in the church at the time then. And, I remember talking to my pastor about this stuff, and and he made a point. He's like, he goes, if you ever notice, you know, demons like to hang out in in warm wet places.
That's why they like to inhabit human bodies.
[01:10:01] Unknown:
Okay. Okay. There's like a sack of hot water. Okay. There you go. So,
[01:10:08] Unknown:
I was thinking, well, you know what? If that's the case, then that very possibly might be an explanation for that, because it's a warm spot, it's a wet spot, you know, it's that type of thing. So what I did is I I took a bucket, and I put this bucket in front of the door to that, that where that drain was, and I took a bible and I opened it up, which random page, nothing specific. I just opened it up, and I put it on top of that bucket, and I went up to bed. Came down the next morning, I was up before everybody else. I went to bed last, like my kids were already asleep, and they were kinda young, so they were asleep. And, my wife was already in bed, and, you know, I came down the morning. I I it was before everybody woke up, and I went down into the basement, and the bucket that I had set up the night before was knocked over, and the bible that I put there was flown across the room.
[01:11:01] Unknown:
Oh. Yeah. Scary. Yeah. Quite. Quite.
[01:11:04] Unknown:
So That's weird. Yeah. So I didn't really say anything about it to anybody. I I did it again another night, a few nights later, and, it didn't happen again the second time. But what did happen though was that door to the closet was open, which I didn't normally leave open. It was always closed. So, I had I told my wife, and, I said, hey, you know what? I got a great idea. Why don't you need you you need to get away for a weekend. Why don't you take the kids? Why don't you sleep downstairs? I'll just That's why we got divorced. Yeah. No. What you know, why don't you take the kids and, you know, go to your sisters, spend the weekend at your sisters. I I gotta work this weekend anyway, which I didn't. But, you know, I had to work this weekend anyway. So just go ahead, go go to your sisters for the weekend, and you know, do your thing, and you know, I'll see you when you get back. Come back Sunday night, whatever.
So she's like, yeah, I think I'll do that. Okay. So they left. Bro, I ran down to the basement right after they left, and I positioned myself in the furthest corner of the basement. I shut off everything. I shut off the power to the whole house, and I sat down there with an infrared camera. Oh my gosh. This is hardcore. Oh, yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Well, I was watching Ghost Adventures and Ghost Hunters and all that stuff, you know, taps and all that crap back then. So Yeah. So, so I had this video camera that had, night vision on it. And, so I positioned myself at the furthest I could from the closet, and I sat there all night with the camera on that thing.
Just recording it. On that door, just waiting waiting and nothing happened. Mhmm. Okay. That's too bad. No. It was good because if something did happen, I probably would have died right there on the spot because because the only way to get out of the basement would have been to run past where that door was. So I didn't really plan it well at the time, but but what did though happen is, that morning when I shut everything down, I went back I went back upstairs, and, the washer and dryer and everything was down in the basement. So I just grabbed all the laundry, I went downstairs, I went to throw it in, and that freaking door was was open. Oh my gosh. Which was not open when I went upstairs.
So, so yeah. But but then after that, like it did nothing really happened. Like, and we were there for a couple years, and you know, didn't hear any voices after that. Didn't nothing broke like randomly. But every now and then, you would you would feel like, I'm not alone here. You know, you would get that that that chill that just kinda goes up this back of your, you know, the back of your neck. And, yeah. So that would that was my that was my my one experience.
[01:13:49] Unknown:
That's creepy.
[01:13:50] Unknown:
Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. It's light. And expensive. I mean, those thing those glass, for the oven is not cheap. No. No. No. Not really. Especially especially that oven. That that was like one of those, almost not not not one of the Vulcan ones, but it was like a commercial grade. Oh, okay. You know? So it was pretty Pricey. Yeah. I don't wanna say expensive. I was gonna sound cheap, but, you know, but it's That's alright. Oh my gosh. This is great, man. It's well so, I think, I think we're at the point here where I'm gonna we're we're over the hour. So, we're gonna start to wrap, this whole thing up here. So, Bob, so give us, give us some ideas as to where we can find you, and, and then I have a I have one more question for you. With a closet in the basement.
[01:14:41] Unknown:
Just come just watch the door. No. You're you're gonna you're gonna you're gonna come out of the closet, Bob? Is that what you're saying? That's right. Yeah. Yeah. This is the show to do it. Yeah. Absolutely. Yeah. After all these years of being heterosexual, no. So now you can find the as I got actually, a a new thing going. But, anyway, you find me at Stack Radio. I've been doing that forever. Woah. Woah. Woah. Woah. Woah. Woah. Woah. Woah. Woah. Woah. Woah. Woah. Woah. Woah. Woah. Woah. Woah. Woah. Woah. Woah. Woah.
[01:15:06] Unknown:
What's the new thing? Oh, I'll get to that. Oh, okay. Alright. Good. Okay. I wasn't gonna let you go without things so You can't do a teaser like that.
[01:15:14] Unknown:
Do instead so static radio is, kind of a comedy thing and so forth. And I got a spin off, where, I got a thing called Mondo Frico that I'm doing with the, Rob Howell. And, we talk about mysterious things, oddly enough, but things we haven't experienced. I've only experienced a couple things, but we talk about mysterious things. So this last the the new one coming out is about the Mongolian death worm, which I'd never heard about. I've never heard about it. So we, we pick we random we have a randomizer. We pick a random thing. It could be a cryptid. It could be a UFO. It could be paranormal. It could be whatever. And then, Rob is a a researcher, and I am just a smartass. And so then we talk about this thing No. I really never would have known that.
He he he gives me a little clue what's it about. We kinda go back and forth, and, it's called Mondo Frico. It comes out, like, about every two weeks or so. But Star Trek Radio is every week, and it's funny stories. But, yeah, those are the things I've got going on. You can find it either place, either place. And then I, you know, hop around. I try to guest every once in a while, like, on the pod match dealio and and, be on your show and talk to you about cool things. Well, I appreciate you coming on the show. In the closet. That's right.
[01:16:33] Unknown:
Well, I would love to have you come back on the show and do some more stuff with us. This was a lot of fun and and and definitely a much needed, reposte from the, from the usual political stuff that we talk about here.
[01:16:47] Unknown:
Yeah. I'm not much into politics.
[01:16:49] Unknown:
Yeah. Yeah. You know, I I never intended the show to be really about strictly politics. Like, I wanted to do this type of show more, you know, more anything and everything stuff.
[01:16:59] Unknown:
And, Yeah. I love to talk about weird stuff. I mean, that to me, the mysteries of the world are are I mean, I love to obviously, you know, crack up stuff and be goofy and joke and stuff like that. But the mysteries of the world always, is great to me. It, and mysteries in the sense of, like, we we were talking about with the paranormal and so forth, but also mysteries in the sense that, you know, our government's not telling us what they know. I mean, it's a mystery. Right? Yeah. I think that there's a lot more known, about, UFOs or UAPs or whatever you wanna call them than they're letting on, and and that's one of those things that, bothers me because, you know, we're we're supposed to be, you know, sharing these things. We're not supposed to be we're supposed to be in it together. You know what I mean? So Absolutely.
No. I I So we need to know. I mean I mean, I understand it's like, okay. Yeah. I can being a a father and and from my story, I can understand. Okay. There's these aliens are waiting in a ship above the, ionosphere, and they wanna come eat us all, but they're taking their time. Maybe I don't need to know about that. But if that's not the case, then we we need to, you know, we need to know. Oh, there you go. Mongolian death worm. There you are. Yeah. Well, that's for some reason, it's not popping up on my screen, like, on the Oh, I see. Yeah. Most bizarre, cryptid I've ever heard of. Yeah. There it goes. The Mongolian death worm. If you don't know what it is, you can go to mondo freako or just Google it, you know, whatever. This is actually a movie.
Oh, that's a movie? Yeah. IMDB.
[01:18:36] Unknown:
Mongolian
[01:18:38] Unknown:
death row in 02/2010. Exaggerating because they're only five foot big. They're only five foot long according to the, official official version.
[01:18:47] Unknown:
So they're they're kinda it it's like tremors there, I guess. Yeah. That's that's it's weird. I'm gonna have to see if I could find that. I'm gonna see if it's on,
[01:18:55] Unknown:
on Tubi. On Netflix. It's oh, it's on Tubi more than likely. Probably. Yeah. I love Tubi. Tubi's great. Everything interesting is on Tubi.
[01:19:04] Unknown:
You gotta watch commercials. It's like, I thought we're past broadcast television for Christ's sake. No. I don't I don't mind the commercials on Tubi because, you know, they're all they're not long. It's like just like one or two maybe, but but it gives me a chance.
[01:19:18] Unknown:
Royal match. How many more royal match,
[01:19:21] Unknown:
commercials do I need to see? Oh, yeah. Well, that you probably get different ones than I do get up over here. I get mostly Spanish language furniture commercials from from, Mexico.
[01:19:31] Unknown:
That's great.
[01:19:33] Unknown:
Fantastic. Which and you know how you know how some of that that that, those those Mexican TV commercials can be, like, you know, really wild. All Novellos and stuff. Yes. I'm I'm in love with my bedroom set. Yep. Exactly. But the, so yeah. It's probably on Tubi. I I watch a lot of Tubi, and I I like Yeah. Tubi's great. I like watching the, like those crazy exorcist kind of movies. But you know what? Actually, I know I was gonna say we're gonna wrap this, but we'll we'll keep going. The, I got I I I've been watching Italian giallo movies. Have you ever seen those?
[01:20:11] Unknown:
I don't think I've ever seen so say that again, giallo? Giallo. It means yellow in Italian. So in in in Italy,
[01:20:19] Unknown:
they they used to have, these books and magazines, like the graphic novel stuff. Yeah. Exact yeah. Kinda like that. Yeah. Exactly. Oh, okay. And what they would do is is they would wrap them in a yellow cover so that so that it was identifiable, you know, as this is, like, more adult based material than than, you know, other stuff. I you it's funny because I actually know somebody,
[01:20:43] Unknown:
who he doesn't doesn't necessarily do Italian movies, but and, you know, I'm not implying anything when I say his name. This is the what he goes by. His name is doc Sleaze and he loves to watch. He's British. He's he's in, he's in, not in London, but outside of London somewhere anyway. But he talks like those movies, like you're talking about Italian movies, all kinds of European movies that are, you know, underground cinema or b cinema or whatever you wanna call it. Or lower. Or lower. Yeah. And he loves them, and he does a a whole thing on that. Yeah. Doc Doc Sleeves, if you wanna look him up, He's a he's a really nice guy. He used to work for the Ministry of Defense. Oh, nice. In Britain.
But he's a really small he's a really nice guy. That's funny.
[01:21:32] Unknown:
But, yeah. So so I get into these Italian jello movies, and and, that that's like so if you go if you ever, like, saw my Tubi, like, continue watchings or, my my my watch list on there, it's all all these old Barber Steel movies and, you know, all these Italian language movies that make no sense whatsoever.
[01:21:51] Unknown:
And they're so over the top, and they're so just gory and just nasty. And just I think there's a lot of those clips. I think, if you're, like, on social media, you'll see where they, like, they shoot somebody, but there's no, no blood really or anything, and the guy dies really, really slowly. He, like, falls down, and he falls down some more, and then he, you know, it it's like so, you know, low budget that they don't even have squibs or anything. There was one movie that I saw. It was it's called,
[01:22:20] Unknown:
I think it's Il Demonio or something like that. The demon? Yeah. Something like that. And, they had the the the there was this one scene in the movie where they had this this this young woman tied up between two trees. Mhmm. And Like a trunk kind of thing. Yeah. And, and and this guy comes along with this freaking, like, lumberjack saw and just, like, saws her in half. Right? Oh. Like, right down the middle. You know? I
[01:22:52] Unknown:
can't remember the name of it, but I saw one of those, and I know it was a foreign land. I didn't know it was a call a giallo movie, but I saw and they cut a woman in half as well. And I'm like, what is it with this cutting the women in half? It must be a a trope. It well, yeah. It's it's a frequent thing, you know. Those movies are so such such exploitive movies. They're they're terrible. Yeah. Exactly. Yeah. They're like, exploitation movie. Yeah. Exactly. They they but they're great. Wild. They're great though. You you sit there, you watch, especially if if you have a few drinks and you're sitting there and you're watching that. Like, was it Mano's Hand of Fate or something like that? It's kinda like that. Right? Yes. Yes. Exactly. Yeah. And I think, I think that's Italian,
[01:23:28] Unknown:
though. I don't think that maybe it is. No. No. It's not. It's, I I know the movie you're talking about. I've I've seen I've not seen the whole thing. I've seen parts of it. But, actually, as a matter of fact, Terrifier, did a scene like that in, I think, it was the the first one where he cut took a he took a a hacksaw and and cut this woman in half, you know, from Oh, jeez. Like, he had her hanging upside down, spread eagle, if you know what I mean, and he started cutting there.
[01:23:56] Unknown:
Because the the hardest part is the starting of it. So when you hang them upside down, it's much easier to get started. Oh, you've already got a groove to go into. So No. Of course. Absolutely.
[01:24:05] Unknown:
You know? It's kinda it's kinda like I I told a coworker one time, so you know what I hate? I hate when I clean out my freezer and I find people I don't remember putting in there.
[01:24:16] Unknown:
You gotta get a grease pencil and write on that wax paper. You gotta start doing that. Yeah. Yeah. Otherwise you lose track. Years go by and the next thing you know, you're defrost in the freezer and you're like, I don't know what the hell this is. Ground Mongolian death worm. Yeah. Mongolian

Welcome to the podcast where every episode promises an unfiltered dive into the eclectic, the profound, and sometimes the absurd. No topic is off limits. Nothing is sacred, and political correctness takes a back seat. Alright. Well, hey, folks. This is Joe Rusciello. It is great to be with you again here on a beautiful, beautiful Friday night here in the beautiful city of Eagle Pass. And we are going to do the very best that we can to bring you the best quality talk radio we could muster without all the bluster. This is the podcast.
And again folks, it is a beautiful Friday night here in the pimple on the backside of Texas, The city of Eagle Pass and, we had 84 degrees here at start time at, 8PM. And if this is any indication of what it's gonna be coming the summer months, man, I am in trouble. I need to get that mini split or that air working in here again in the studio, because that window unit drives me crazy. Folks, we're gonna have a a very special guest here with us who seems to already have checked in. We have, the blue cat over there on your screen. We have, Bob Lament. I hope I'm saying it right.
Yeah. Sorry. I think I hit the button too early. I apologize. Just a little bit. That's okay. It's it's happened before. That's okay. Just hang out with me while I go through the opening of, of the show here and, we'll, we'll we'll get going here. Alright, folks. So, well, with Bob here, we're gonna just, kinda quickly, dispense with the usual pleasantries and we're gonna get right on into, some of the housekeeping stuff that we do. So folks, I just wanna remind you to head over to our website, joeroos.com. Don't forget we changed that recently, so it's joeroos.com.
When you get there, head over to the web form, open it up, send us over any questions, comments, cares, concerns that you have, and, any suggestions that you might have. And, if anybody ever recommends to invite a blue cat onto the show again, I I will completely ban you for life for the show. Alright. But, Really?
[00:03:51] Unknown:
No. Nobody heard from me yet. Come on. I watched your YouTube video, bud.
[00:03:56] Unknown:
Oh, okay. Alright. There you go. So, folks, don't forget to do that. But if you don't wanna use a web form, that's fine. You could always email me directly at [email protected]. That's [email protected]. Also, don't forget, more important than anything else, you gotta hit that support button. Alright. We really do need your donations, and remember this is a value for value podcast, and, all that simply means is that if you find any value from what we're doing here, we're asking that you return that value in the form of a donation. It could be a one time donation donation in any amount that you wanna send, or you could join one of our, producer tiers. We have the associate producer tier for a monthly recurring donation of $17.76 a month. And with that, you get the shout out. Every show, you get included in all the show notes, emails, anything that we send out. And then we also have for $18.36 a month, we have our producer's credit, the producer's tier. So you get yourself a little promotion, but you still get the same perks, the shout outs and and whatnot.
The real benefit is the executive producer tier. Alright? Now for that, for a for a monthly recurring donation of $25 a month or more, you get all of the perks of the other two, but you also get an invitation to do a segment with us here live on the show. So I think it's worth it. I think this is I think it's a good opportunity. And if you remember correctly, a couple of weeks ago, we had one of our executive producers actually here in the studio with us, all the way from the great state of Washington. Now you don't have to do that. I'm not encouraging you to do that. I happen to know the guy for twenty plus years. I don't want any of you here. Okay?
So, I'm not the greatest host in the world when it comes to that, but, but you are more than welcome to join us here on the show, for a segment, and we'll get that all booked up and and scheduled, and we'll have a great time, great conversation. So $17.76 a month, associate producer. Eighteen thirty six a month, producer. And $25 a month or more, executive producer. So decide which one's the which one works best for you, and sign on up. We would love to have you on board. Also, you could, you could help us out with some crypto donations. We have a crypto wallet up on our website, and, it's very very easy to do. If you don't have a crypto wallet, you wanna set one up, I would suggest you go to getalbi.com.
That's who we use, and they're they're simp super simple to use. They have a a web hub that you could use that they will maintain for you for a small monthly fee, and, you can donate your Satoshis to us. All Satoshis are, if you don't know, is a micropayment of Bitcoin. It's really pennies when you think about it. I think I think a hundred a hundred satoshis is like 10¢ or something like that. So, so, it's not a huge amount of money, but every little penny that we get helps keep this whole thing going. Alright. Also, the last thing I wanna mention to you where we generate revenue from is that, we have our affiliate link with the Alex Jones store. Okay? So you can go to the alexjonesstore.com/joe, and you could get yourself some really high quality vitamins, supplements, and patriotic apparel.
I'm not gonna go through the whole spiel that I always go through because we have our guest waiting here, but, you guys know I take the ultimate Irish sea moss, which is terrible with the lights because you can't really see the bottle, but, you guys know what this stuff is. This stuff is fantastic for you. You can get the gummies, you can get the the capsules. The capsules are better because well, to me anyway. They're better because they're more concentrated, they're a little bit stronger. You take two of those every day, as opposed to four of the gummies, but it's up to you, however you like to do it. Also, we have the ultimate turmeric, which is I love this stuff. This is great for inflammation. This is great for bloating. This is great for, boosting your antioxidant defenses. Fantastic stuff.
We also have been taking the atomic defense, which has been really, really helpful. Really helpful. Like I told you guys before, I I handle biohazard material, from time to time at my at my regular job, and, it never fails. Within a day or two after handling it, I get sick. But since I've been taking the atomic defense, it's really been it's really been a help. I haven't been getting sick, or if I do get sick, it's not as bad as it was. And then which I don't have because I left it out in the other side there is the optimal human. The, super food that we that we've been taking, it's a drink. You mix one little cat little scoop in eight to 10 ounces of water every day, and this stuff is like fantastic. This stuff goes right through you. It really does. It helps you out. I've lost almost 30 pounds since I've been on it, not that that's really a benefit of the of the product, but for me it has been.
It's it's pre probiotic, whatever. And, it's, it's loaded with, with 10,000,000,000 different probiotics, functional mushrooms, and loaded with all the vitamins and nutrients your body needs every single day. So try it out. Just visit the alexjonesstore.com/joe, and you can get all of that wonderful wonderful nutrient supplements that you could possibly get. Alright. And the last thing I wanna say is to to the folks that are listening on the audio stream, if you wanna see the blue cat that we're gonna be talking to today, you gotta go over to Rumble. That's rumble.com, and when you get there, just, look for Joe Roos, and you can join up the show. Like, subscribe, share it with all your friends, your family, and your followers. Hit the notification bell, so you're you're notified every time we have a show. If you don't wanna do use the website, just download the app from your app store. It's absolutely free.
And, but there with the free plan, you know, you you are gonna get mid rolls. So sorry, I can't do anything about that. But, for as little as $10 a month, you can get rumble premium, which I think is even better than what YouTube offers for their, for their entry level, program. So, number of options for you, we would love to find you following us here. So please, help us out. We need to hit a hundred followers on Rumble so I can, you know, get some sponsorships, you know. So that would be great. Alright. Well, we are already at that point where we say goodbye to the folks that are on YouTube. We say goodbye to the folks that are on x, and we ex stream exclusively here on Rumble.
So folks, hopefully, you'll switch on over to, Rumble, and we'll be we will see you there. And to, if you don't want to, you know, fuck you. Alright. Well, to the folks that are here with us on, Rumble only, I would like to, bring on our guest who's already been sitting here, with us. This is, Bob Lament. I'm I'm saying that correct. Right? Did I ask you that already? Yeah. No. That's great. It works. Alright. That's fantastic. And Bob is the host of a long running long running, Internet radio program that started back in, 1999 called, Static Radio.
And, Bob, you know, I I do have some experience in Internet radio. Back in 2015 or so, I was doing Internet radio back up in New York with a bunch of friends. And, so I remember what it was before it was, you know, podcasting. But, but it was, it was quite the experience. Podcasting?
[00:11:08] Unknown:
Yeah. It was embarrassing to say you had a podcast way back when. It was. People thought you were a idiot. Yeah. Ex uneducated,
[00:11:16] Unknown:
technically, unsavvy, no time no no extra time on your not well, too much extra time in your hands to do anything else. Time. Yeah. Not working or anything like that, living in mom's basement in your pajamas. Right. Yeah. Exactly. You're a basement dweller. Mhmm.
[00:11:31] Unknown:
Drain on society back then. Yeah. That's I've been that my whole life and, The Drain Society. Continue to be apparently.
[00:11:40] Unknown:
So Well, after doing it after doing it for twenty four years, I think you've earned the right to be a drain on society. Yeah. I'm still draining society right now. I'm draining your show at this point. Yeah. No. No. Actually I apologize for jumping on early. I thought, I thought you'd have to hit a button, but then I just popped up, and I'm like, oh, well, crap. Yeah. No. That's fine. That's fine. I am. I I could've I could've left you actually, I sent you a message on the, on the little chat thing. I did, but I didn't I'm illiterate. So That's okay. All it said was hang out till I get to I didn't see it in time. I already hit buttons. Yeah. That's that's fine. I'm button crazy. That's all good. It's all good. That that actually happened, to, an interview I did a couple of weeks ago with, with a guy that, I I we we connected on PodMatch also.
And we were gonna talk about UFOs, UAPs, USOs, all that stuff too. It was the funniest thing because, he he jumped on really early, and I forgot to set it to where I had to approve him connecting.
[00:12:40] Unknown:
Mhmm. And,
[00:12:42] Unknown:
so he jumped on before I even started the stream.
[00:12:46] Unknown:
Oh.
[00:12:46] Unknown:
And Yeah. They, and my audience got a beautiful picture of him sitting there picking his nose and and playing I was right. Playing with his mic and his camera. So I'm So in a way, I'm kinda glad you jumped on when you did. At least you're a character. You're you're a cartoon character. I'm not. Yeah. It's a little more difficult for me to pick my nose. Yeah. Exactly. Exactly.
[00:13:05] Unknown:
Although, I could have been doing it behind the character. Well, that's as long as we didn't see it, we're okay, bro. Yeah. You didn't have to be subjected to it. Yeah. Exactly.
[00:13:14] Unknown:
Exactly. So why don't you tell us a little bit about the, the the the voice behind the blue cat? Give us a little bit of a history.
[00:13:22] Unknown:
So, I'm Bob. How's everybody doing? Been doing, like, we called it in written in Internet radio way back when and, started doing this in 1999, which I'm sure there's some people out there who weren't even born yet or something like that. So more power to you, young folks, who are now old folks.
[00:13:43] Unknown:
And, I hope it's getting there.
[00:13:46] Unknown:
Yeah. They're getting they're getting there. Right? They're almost in the thirties, so no one's gonna listen to them anymore. Mhmm. And, yeah. But, I've been doing it with, cohost Miles Title, and, we every week, we, do a show. We generally tell funny stories or strange things that have happened to us. It's a very experiential, for us at least, show when we talk about what happens. And hopefully, we make each other laugh. And, in you know, hopefully, you'll laugh as well, you know, the listener, but we don't really, you know, have a a good feedback loop on that yet, but we'll work on it. We actually do the show live for the last few years on a platform called Plausible, which is a comedian's platform. And so you can join in. I say come by at 09:30, central
[00:14:36] Unknown:
on Plausible, and, bring a story. We wanna hear a funny story. Well, that would be great. Actually, if you could, when you have a chance, send me the links to it, and I'll, make sure we put all that stuff in the show notes. Will do. But, yeah, I I know what you're saying about, you know, getting started on on Internet radio, but it was probably one of the more fun things that I did. And, you know, we had the benefits of there were three of us. There was it was myself. It was my friend, who who went by the name of Big JP. And, then we had Joey Drapes, who was, actually the owner of the studio. It was a professional, broadcast studio.
And, he allowed us to use the studio at no charge, as long as we let him come on the show. So,
[00:15:17] Unknown:
it it It was his studio. What it was he care if he wants to be on your show? Yeah. No. It was great though. He because because we had a very interesting dynamic. We did a lot of Apparently you drugged Joey drapes to make him think that he needed to be on your show. I don't know. That sounds like suspect right here. Well, I I think he may he may have done that to us. What was the what was the name of the show, by the way? Oh, we well, we called it the on air radio show.
[00:15:39] Unknown:
We couldn't think of anything up more original than that at the moment. So that just that was like our working title and it just stuck with it. There's usually a big sign that says that whenever you're on the radio. Well, yeah. Actually, I have one over my head here, but you just can't Yeah. See? It's out of the range. But, the, it was it was a it was one of those anything and everything shows, kinda like what I'm what I'm trying to do with this one. And, but the fun part was is that it we we did a lot of political talk. We we covered a range of subjects and it but it wasn't strictly politics. We had a bunch of different segments that we would do and it was a lot of fun. We we enjoyed it. I was the I was the conservative voice in the group. Big JP was the liberal voice in the group, and Joey Drapes, we used to call him the voice of God because he would step in when Jay and I would start arguing and break up the fight and, you know, bring peace and
[00:16:27] Unknown:
and happiness to everybody. Oh, well, he's a peacemaker. I gotcha. Well, he had a vested interest because
[00:16:33] Unknown:
if big JP went off the deep end, he'd start smashing things. So Oh, for sure. For sure. And and and his studio. We called him big JP for a reason because he was Yeah. Big big guy. Oh, okay. Yeah. So, Sometimes you do that ironically, and I I wasn't sure. So maybe he's a little JP, really, but Well, it he might he may have been a little JP, but, you know, the rest of him the rest of him was a big JP. But, Oh, there you go. But he was a he was a good guy. I I love JP. He was he was a good friend, and, we haven't spoken. He's still back in New York then? Oh, yeah. Yeah. We haven't spoken in a while, but, but,
[00:17:08] Unknown:
maybe because that little JP crack.
[00:17:11] Unknown:
Maybe. Maybe. One of the things he used to love to do to us was, if if he was losing his argument, he would mute our mics because he had the master board in front of him. He was running the board. Okay. Yeah. So he would like to mute our mics. And we actually took advantage of that at, in one show we did. We brought on a guy, just to kinda help us do some research, because I was doing all the research. I was putting together all the show notes and all that stuff. And so, anytime they would want some information, I'd be over here on the computer looking, and I'm not great at multitasking. So, you know, I I wasn't really getting involved in too much of the conversations.
So we brought this guy on, his name was Alan. We called him Alan the Jew, and we gave him it was it was a totally un PC show, my friend. Totally. No, that's fine. Was he Jewish or was he? Oh, yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Big time. Yeah. Oh, okay. Well, there you go. We actually gave him a segment called Alan's Two Cents, where the image was a hand holding two pennies. Oh, okay. So just to kinda go with the Alan the Jew thing. Right. Yeah. It's cheap. Yeah. Exactly. And, you know, we told him, you don't have to tell us what you do, what you're gonna talk about. You just, you know, we're gonna take a break at like at like 07:30 or whatever it was. And, when we come back from the break, you're gonna pick it up. You're gonna start it, and you know, just give us an idea of what you're talking about, and this way we can have something in mind as how we're gonna respond to it. And, he was like, alright fine. And he would, and he would come up with some really wild funny stuff. But, what what what JP and I did was is we wanted to we wanted to test his metal.
His his broadcasting metal. Mhmm. So what we did is we we, for for about three or four shows before we did it, he we set up a, a little scenario where Jay and I would come into the studio on show nights, and we would be bickering as we come in. And we'd be pretending to be angry at each other, and all that stuff. And he would antagonize me. I'd antagonize him during the show. He'd mute my mic and I would get pissed off and all that stuff. And, so we set it up and and, Joey Drapes was involved in it also. But he was, you know, he was like, you just do what you gotta do. I I just, you know, just leave me out. I'm ready to break up any fight. Right. That's what he said. He was the bouncer. So, so, you know, we we went through the show, and we came up on, you know, the the first big story that we were gonna cover.
And, Jay would mute my mic, and then I would get pissed, and I would start yelling at him. And I took the cans off, I threw him down on the table. I said, you know what? Screw this, f this, fuck this. I'm out of here. I'm leaving. And I would I got up and I walked out of the studio. I stood outside the door. Jay was like, you know what? F that. I'm not doing this either. He took his cans off. He threw him down there. He walked out, and the two of us are standing outside the studio door yelling at each other, you know, but like leaning up against the wall, you know, just yelling.
And, and, we left Alan sitting there with Joey, and, Alan was just like, okay. Well, Stock market today. Yeah. Not sure what we're gonna do now, but, and he he went to Joe. He was like, should should I do my segment? He goes, we're we're on the air. You have to do something. You know? Poor guy. Oh, Oh, it was it was hysterical. Alan? Oh, my gosh. Alan, he he then left us and became a corrections officer so we don't mess with him. Well, yeah. Then he could be have a little more control. Yeah. Yeah. He just need a little more control in his life. And, you have New York corrections. New York City corrections. So you don't mess with it. Yeah. So then you could beat people up and get away with it. Exactly. Exactly so. So I don't know if that's true. No. No. Anything I say tonight may or may not be true, just as a disclaimer here. We'll we'll make sure we include a disclaimer in the notes as well. You know, you know No. I'm gonna be handing out medical advice later. So Names will be changed. Protect the innocent. You don't need to be taking that to heart either. No. Of course not. No. We don't just like all the vitamins that I push, you know, we don't we don't, you know, I don't recom I don't tell you to take them because, I have many medical training. I just I take them myself and I get a benefit out of it. So, Right. Your results may vary. That's correct. Very good, sir. Very good.
So, so one of the things that that I was looking through the profile that you have up on on PodMatch. Yeah. And and I saw some things that we were talking about that, I wanted to kinda get into with you. Because I I'm very much interested in, like, the UAPs, u a u a, UFOs, u USOs, all that nonsense. And I know I know UAPs, u a UFOs are the same crap now. They just changed the name to confuse
[00:21:36] Unknown:
Just playing the
[00:21:37] Unknown:
acronym Bingo. Yeah. Yeah. Just to confuse everybody, I I think, or make it look like they're doing something. Message. That's it. That's exactly. Yeah. So, a couple days ago, I had a gentleman on the phone, on the phone on the show named, John Rarity who's involved with, I don't know if you know Steven Greer, doctor Steven Greer. Oh, yeah. Okay. Yeah. He worked with with doctor Greer. CE five or whatever. Exactly. Right? Yes. Exactly. Which is which to me is you know, we we were talking about it a little bit. I and I I wanted to bring it up, but I didn't. And and I kinda regret not doing it. But, so I watched this documentary. I don't know if you saw it on, on CE five, Close Encounters of the Fifth Kind. Yeah. I've seen it. So if anybody's listening and maybe they didn't cast the other show, Close Encounters of the Fifth Kind is, human initiated contact with extraterrestrial
[00:22:24] Unknown:
intelligence. Yeah. They shoot lasers and stuff into this sky.
[00:22:28] Unknown:
Yeah. Which I'm not sure is such a great idea.
[00:22:32] Unknown:
I mean, you know. You know, you have you do have At least they're not shooting them in each other's eyeballs. I mean, that would be Like, you do have bad You do have aircraft up there, you know? You never know. Yeah. Well, you get in trouble for that, but I think, typically we're at least from the documentary where they were at, there was not a huge amount of, aircraft.
[00:22:51] Unknown:
No. I think they have tracker apps too that you could Yeah. Oh, yeah. See what's in there. It's great. Have you ever played with that? It's Oh, yeah. Yeah. I have. Yeah. I have actually. Yeah. What's the name of it now? I'm about to find it. I have one on my phone here. Yeah. What? Flight radar 24 is one of them. Yeah. Well, you know yeah. One is one that I used to use was called Flight Radar. I don't know if Flight Radar 24 or not, but, but I remember Flight Radar. And, because I was always looking to see what government planes were flying overhead, you know, like I like I told you in a private message when I decided to, you know, work on it. Those those don't always come up. That's the funny thing. No. They don't. Government planes don't always show up. You know, everything's supposed to have a transponder, but holy hell, they don't. You see them up in the sky, and they're not on the on the app. So go figure. Yeah. And, down here well, where I am anyway in Texas, I live I live on the border, with Mexico. I'm in Eagle Pass. And, so that's where, I don't know if you remember when the state of Texas had the standoff with the federal government at Shelby Park, over the border crossings. I'm I'm about a mile and a half away from Shelby Park where all that took place. Wow. Oh, yeah. Yeah. That was great. It was wild. Wild stuff. Sure is. Sure is. That's why I you know, one of the reason I love living in Texas is that I get to open carry and, you know, so I felt perfectly fine or perfectly safe.
I wear my cowboy. I felt fine. They all had assault rifles, but I was fine. I was good. I I had I had my nine millimeter. I was fine. I'm okay. But, but, so yeah. So we were we were talking about c e five, and, one of the things that came that that I came across from me watching that documentary was that, how how much of a religious type of experience this was. And and it it kinda worried me a little bit that, you know, this is how cults start. Could be. You know? And it it Could be. It's kinda interesting to watch. But, but this guy, he was good. I mean, you might wanna, you know, check him out if you can find him on on podcast. Well, I I he has a lot of, weird stuff. He's probably here lately. It seems like he's got about a documentary a year since around '29. Oh, I'm talking about John. I'm not talking about Steven Greer. He's not a doctor. Oh, I thought you meant Steven Greer. I'm sorry. Well, actually, I emailed Steven Greer through his website to see if you wanna come on the show, but I'm not, you know, I'm the one. Yeah. No. I'm just like, no. I'm a doctor. Yeah. I'm a doctor. I'm a well known documentarian, and I'm going on a cruise. Right. Yeah. And I'm taking I'm taking all my followers on a cruise, in Right. I'm doing that. In a couple of months. Doing laps in the Mediterranean for big money. Well, no. He's really taking people on a cruise. They're going on a on a a contact event cruise in in, I think in April. Yeah. Well, it's
[00:25:29] Unknown:
he's he's become a bit of an industry, I think. It's just like, you know, what, AlienCon. Right? So Giorgio Soukalos from History Channel does alien con now with all the all the talking heads on his show. And I think that's, you know, it's kind of a similar situation. It's a little bit of commerce in with the all the, alien business. It is. And Which is fine. I mean, I see no no problem with it if that's your interest. No. Of course not. I it's just, you know, it's just kind of an it to me, it's just, you know, you had you what do you wanna say? You need money to do things.
Right? But the my question is always, you know, how much money do you need? And then when does it become you talked about being a cult. When does it become a commercial venture, as opposed to something that is actually trying to solve something? Right. Yeah. I I I agree with that.
[00:26:24] Unknown:
Yeah. One of the interesting things about, Giorgio Tsoukalos is, in that show that he has the, was it Ancient Aliens?
[00:26:31] Unknown:
Ancient Aliens. Yeah.
[00:26:33] Unknown:
Otherworldly Adventures. The have you ever checked out that magazine that he that he pushes?
[00:26:41] Unknown:
I couldn't find it. I actually looked for it once, and I could not find it. Yeah. Exactly. I mean, I didn't do a big hard search. You know what I mean? But I just threw it in a couple of things, and I'm like, where is this? It's gotta be online. I mean, what's the point in this day and age of having a magazine that's not online? Well, that was the thing. I I was I wanted to subscribe, and I wanted to see what he had to offer. And so I went looking for the web. I went I followed the websites, and I all the links that that popped up when I did the search, and and I found a website.
[00:27:09] Unknown:
I I'm just drawing a blank on it right now, but I found the website. Legend Legendary
[00:27:15] Unknown:
Times.
[00:27:16] Unknown:
Right. Yes. Legendary Times. And there was nothing on there. It was it was like a it was like, you know, coming soon, coming soon, you know. Right. Yeah. It's just a placeholder. Right. Yeah. Placeholder website, placeholder placeholder articles.
[00:27:29] Unknown:
There's a GoDaddy in the corner. Yeah.
[00:27:32] Unknown:
I don't know if he said that. I'm just joking. Oh, I know. I know. I know. But, yeah. It it's it was it's it's a scam. It's all a scam.
[00:27:39] Unknown:
Yeah. So well, and I think that's, unfortunately, that's an unfortunate, situation because obvious I mean, if we're well, let's just dive in. Shall we, Joe? Please. Let's do that. Obviously, people are seeing things. People are experiencing things, and these are real, real people having real experiences. And they're not imagining things I don't believe. And they, you know, are affected. They're some people are traumatized. Some people are mesmerized. Some people, you know, don't ever wanna talk about it again. And this is all real. And so, you know, I that's why I kinda mentioned the industry thing. It's like, you know, at some point, it's kinda like Bigfoot in a way because Bigfoot's an industry now too, is that we have aliens as an industry.
Mhmm. And these are a couple of examples. Now I think possible well, you know, possibly there was good intentions at some point, and then, you know, hey. It's you you make a certain amount of money and you're like, wait a minute. I can just do this. Right. And it kind of takes off from there. I hopefully, you know, like, yeah, like podcasting. Yeah. Well, you know, the, but hopefully there's still a bit of, you know, that initial, reasoning behind it that you actually want to solve something. You know, the the problem is once things become an industry that's based on a mystery, then people never wanna solve the mystery because then there goes the industry.
Mhmm. And I don't think that that's, you know, a good thing. Same thing. I mean, you could say the same thing happens in pharmaceutical companies. The same thing happens in everything. So, you know, once there becomes a certain amount of money involved in it, then, you know, solving something is really not that important. It's perpetuating the money. And, I I think that's just sad because there's so many, honest, real people out there who have these experiences and they, you know, they're looking for answers because they don't have the resources or the time or, any number of things to continue this. Mhmm. And, you know, they look to these kind of things that are a little more prominent to to answer some of those questions. And, on it, you know, unfortunately they've moved on to, you know, you know, Walt Disney company kind of situation where they're just making characters and
[00:30:14] Unknown:
selling their likeness. There you go. Have you ever had an experience?
[00:30:18] Unknown:
I have. Really? Tell me about it. I have. Yeah. Actually, back in 02/2005, it was May. It was about 04:00 in the afternoon. I was outside and, pushing my kids on a swing. Isn't that just sound idyllic? Oh, perfect. Beautiful. And yeah. And, at the time, my, son was was very small, and he liked to see the planes fly overhead. And so I was watching for planes, and I'd say, hey. Look, buddy. There's a plane. And he'd be like, oh, you know, it's great. Kind of, outdoorsy entertainment kind of stuff. And I caught out of the corner of my eye a sphere. Okay.
A a ball. Right? A silverish metal looking. I mean, you know, wasn't like, you know, aluminum looking. I don't know what it was. It was it just looked metal. It was up high in the air about seemed like where the planes were flying and about four times larger. And, I happened to catch it, as it was going overhead, and I basically watched it from almost horizon, caught it right quick, on one side of the horizon that went all the way across to the other. And I mean, the whole experience lasted maybe twenty, twenty five seconds. I had little kids. They didn't look Of course. They couldn't be my witnesses. Right. I didn't say anything to them because I was just watching this thing go overhead.
And I was I was just dumbfounded. I was like, this is nuts.
[00:31:52] Unknown:
I had And, yeah. It's weird. Right? It is weird. I I I had I had one experience in my life and it was fairly recent. It was about two two years ago. I was flying back from New York, from my my mom had passed away, so I I was on the way back. And, I don't I don't often sit by a window, because I don't like to fly. There's just something unnatural about it for a human being to be flying. But, but I I just happened on this particular occasion was sitting, by the window. And I didn't have my cell phone with me, and I I, you know, I I had it put away, and, so I wasn't like filming or or recording or anything like that. And, so I'm looking out the window, we and we were over some, some really open flat, like, flyover country, I guess.
And, just out of Ohio. Probably, yeah. And, just out of the out of the corner of my eye coming from the from the right to the left, it it was way too close to be a commercial aircraft, and was to me anyway, it was moving way too fast. And it it like shot by the window, and it was elongated, I guess, because of the speed that it was traveling. Mhmm. It did not look like a plane. It did not look like a small like, private aircraft. It was definitely not a commercial air way too fast for that. And again, way too close. You know, it's because you you you I know that there's traffic lanes in, Yeah. You know, in in the airspace above us, but yeah, way too close.
So I don't know what it was, but all I know is that I saw that thing, and I was kicking myself afterwards. I didn't have my phone in my hand like everybody else does always, ever. You're you're never going that's the funny thing. We've,
[00:33:44] Unknown:
here at the at my house, we laugh about that because, and we're we're not seeing, you know, spacecraft or anything, but we I live out in the country and we always see animals. Right. And we always laugh because nobody, we all have a phone and generally people are carrying them around the house there, but nobody's got a picture of any of these. Like I saw a beaver one day out in the backyard. You know, how, how often do you see that? You know what I mean? True. Yeah. Nobody took a picture. We had a Wolf in the backyard. No one took a picture of it. Watched the wolf walk through the backyard. I seen a fox Yeah. Like a fox with, like, the largest fox I've ever seen in my life. It was like a a weightlifter fox or something. It's just this big giant muscular fox comes trotting through the yard. A turkey.
I mean, these are things that, you know, squirrels and rabbits. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. A dog. Could it have been a fox watch? Dogs. Yeah. What's that? Could it have been a fox watch? Fox watch. No, I don't know. But he was, this thing was, you know, he was, he was in charge of wherever he came from and where he was going. Cause he walked like it and he didn't care if anybody saw him. And, but anyway, we never get pictures of any of it. So the fact that people get pictures of anything is miraculous because that's what, whenever I saw my thing, Miles, because I talked about it on the show back in 02/2005 and he's like, well, didn't you go get a picture? I'm like, no, I was just dumbfounded by this thing happening.
I was mesmerized. I just was watching it. I was like, I've never seen there's nothing like this that exists in the world that flies over your house. Running into the house to get my phone is not the first thing on my mind at that moment. Well, in twenty, two thousand and five, the phone cameras were crap. So it didn't matter if I had my phone camera on me, I had to go get a camera and it happened so quickly. It was all daylight. I mean, it was broad daylight And 04:00 in the afternoon in May, it's not dark at all. And so, you know, it but you just get you're like, your brain kinda just it goes into calculations, you know, am I seeing this? Is this a plane? Is this and then you're, like, doing your, you know, flashcards in your mind, trying to figure out what the hell this thing was.
And, you just don't get it. And until you get put in that position where you're seeing something that your brain isn't registering, even if it's just as simple as a beaver popping out in the backyard, you you're not used to it. And so then all of a sudden, you just become totally fixated on it, and you don't think to take a picture. You don't think to do anything. You're trying to process the situation exactly. And make sense of it, unless it's there for a, you know, a good long time, like minutes, like five minutes or something. Chance, which is really is like an eternity when you think about it. Yeah. But, into everybody everyone who has never had an experience is always, oh, why don't you take a picture? And it's like, you know, goddamn it. Have you done anything in your life or seen anything weird? Right.
No, I don't think so. You know, you, you know, it, it, it just doesn't work that way. And it it's the same for everybody. And then some people are in total denial. And so they may have saw it and then totally just say, I can't believe in this. I can't open my mind to this even happening. And so it happens and then they never even register, that it occurred because they don't want it to occur. Right. And it it's amazing because, you know, pareidolia. Right? You talk about pareidolia. You talk about how strong your brain is at at filling in the pieces. So if you catch a glimpse of something, like, you caught a glimpse of something and you're trying to make sense of it. Well, some people will just okay. That was another plane. Mhmm. Boy, that was a close call. Good thing we didn't die. Right.
You know? And then they go on with their lives and and that's it. And but I think it's, everybody's different and everybody, processes a little bit differently. And so therefore, you just have to be kind of a perfect combination, to witness something, be there at the right time, and happen to catch it because it's not, you know, happening every minute. And then also being able to believe yourself and say, okay. This is what I saw. Right. I got confirmation for mine, so I was in denial a little bit. I saw it. I I know I saw something, but I was trying to process it. And then at the time, in 02/2005, I went on online. There's a thing called UFO Maps, and somebody in the neighboring town saw the same thing at the same time. And so then to me, that cemented that it actually happened.
Because I was honestly, I was like, did I really did I see this? Is this really happening?
[00:38:37] Unknown:
And you just kinda question yourself. Oh, yeah. I thought I thought the same thing too, when I saw that thing fly by the window like that. I I was like, you know, first of all, it was broad daylight as well. It was, you know, like, middle of the afternoon. It wasn't it's not something that I could have said, oh, that that was just something off way off in the distance there that, looked like it was moving. But no. No. No. This was But
[00:38:59] Unknown:
who I mean, everybody reacts differently and it and it I've told that story. It's funny. I'm glad that you, had something happen to the daylight. I've told that story to other people who are people who believe in these things have seen things generally at night, seen lights and whatnot. And I tell them that story. It says, bring during the daylight and they go, oh, so you saw a light in the sky? Like, no, I saw a fucking ship. Yes. And they're like, oh, you saw the light? Like I saw a light. I'm like, no, no, no. And then eventually I quit arguing with them because they never could get it through their head that it was during the day.
It, it amazes me because, because I mean, they experienced something as well. Yeah. And so, but it, it, it,
[00:39:45] Unknown:
it's It's all coming from our own perspective. It's almost it's almost like they it's almost like they they want you to believe what they saw, but have a hard but have a hard time believing in what you saw because you saw it at a different time of day.
[00:39:58] Unknown:
Exactly. And I was I think that's funny. But, yeah. I've had it happen more than once, and I'm like, wait. No. It wasn't. It's 04:00 in May. I don't live in Australia for Christ's sake. I live in the Midwest and St. Louis. Right. You know, so, but anyway, it's just funny how everybody experiences these things differently. And, but now the thing is I don't, I don't prescribe to say what I saw was extra terrestrial necessarily because I'm missing some facts here. Right? Maybe we did have in 02/2005, a flying ball, which they've never revealed in over twenty years. I don't know. But pre drones. But I just saw it, and that's what I and it moved. It didn't make a lot of noise. You know? It didn't whoosh by. It didn't beam into my head and tell me don't look this way. Mhmm.
It it just happened and there it was. But I do believe that we've had so, you know, so many things happen over time that are unexplainable. And, you know, some of them are lights in the sky and, you know, some of them are daytime. But there's been so many that it just can't all be, you know, ball lightning in swamp gas. Of course not. Everybody keeps saying.
[00:41:26] Unknown:
And that and that that Mhmm. I'm sorry. Go ahead. Oh, but it also doesn't mean it's extraterrestrial,
[00:41:32] Unknown:
but I mean, we're talking, you know, you go way back into the stories and, and there's, you know, back into the eighteen hundreds, they've had these sightings and, and documented in the newspaper and what have you. In fact, in Texas, right? It was an Odessa, Texas is a big story back in the eighteen hundreds. And so back then we didn't have a a a ball ship that was flying around. I mean, you know, it wasn't a cannonball either. It was going in a straight line. No no no arc of trajectory. Right.
[00:42:04] Unknown:
And then also you have you have these, you'd be these these, Egyptian hieroglyphics that they found that look where the the depiction looks almost like, like a Blackhawk helicopter. Do you have you ever seen those? Yeah. I mean, that's what that's wild stuff.
[00:42:22] Unknown:
Yeah. And and they and the thing is, you know, they still don't know what all those things mean. They they love everybody. I'll tell you, anybody with any, you know, what do you want to say? Somebody is going to be authority on everything. And if they're the authority, they're going to tell you, I know what that is. But the reality is we don't, we don't even know how our own bodies work half the time and things happen in our brains and we don't know how that works. But, but once you become an authority figure, you have to be the authority. And so when you're the authority, then you can't, you know, go around saying, what was that? And then you, the authority and you go, I don't know. Right.
And then they're like, well, I thought you were the authority. And it's like, well, and then now guess what? You're not the authority anymore. And so everybody wants to hold their position. This kind of gets to the money. Like, we were talking about the money thing earlier. Mhmm. You you if you're gonna be an authority person, you have to seem definitive and you have to seem like, you know, all of this, whether you know it or not is immaterial.
[00:43:29] Unknown:
That's true. It's a position that you stake, and you have to hold that position or else you lose it. As much as you'd like to be honest and say, well, look, you know what? I don't know. You can't because then especially if you're making if this is your living, and this is what you do for you know, you make your money. Yeah. And you come back and say, well, I don't know. Beast the fuck out. Beast the fuck out of you. I think
[00:43:50] Unknown:
and I mean, that's with everything, you know, you you don't wanna go to a doctor who is wish you are she. Yeah. Yeah. That's for sure. Joe, it could be cancer or it could just be some of those microplastics you've been reading about. I don't know.
[00:44:05] Unknown:
Let's just try this here. Which reminds me, I got a I got a funny story about that. So, about, about doctors and self diagnoses.
[00:44:16] Unknown:
Oh, no. Yeah. Just
[00:44:18] Unknown:
I love and if I I I think my doctor listens from time to time, so I'm gonna be very careful about how I say this. I don't wanna make him look bad or sound bad, but I love my doctor. He's great. You know, I'm not gonna say names or anything like that to protect the innocent, but, I I I had a bit of a health scare about a year and a half or so ago. And, went to the doctor, did all the tests, the blood work, the the scans and all that stuff, and they still couldn't figure out what the hell was going on. So I got tired I got tired of being poked and prodded, so I started doing my own research.
And, I went on to a bunch of different websites, medical websites, like clinics like Mayo Clinic, and all that stuff, and started doing all this research, and I came up with I came up with a diet. I say, alright, well I have this, this, this, I'm experiencing that, I'm experiencing that, this is happening for sure. Okay, so what's this? And I I put it put it all together, made an appointment, went back to my doctor, and I walked in and he was like, so what's going on? I said, this is what I have, this is what you need to prescribe me, and it'll take care of it in this amount of time. And he goes, and when did you get your medical degree?
And I was like, well it's not a matter of me getting a medical degree, it's a matter of me trying to figure out the hell's wrong with me because nobody else seemed to It's all a puzzle, yeah. You know? And so he took my advice and, gave me the medications that I told him I needed
[00:45:42] Unknown:
and went home. I said Let me put my stamp of approval on this. Just a minute, Joe. Okay.
[00:45:48] Unknown:
That's what he said. Went home. Let me take a look at that. I went home. I did everything. I had to I followed all my own self prescribed instructions and all that stuff. And, went back to the doctor in, like, a month, and, I I had no issues. I was fine. Whatever it was that I was dealing with was was done. It was gone. And, I said to him, I said, well, you see, I was right. He goes, well, doctor, I concur.
[00:46:11] Unknown:
Oh, good. I love that line. I concur. Like, that's wonderful. You know? But but you Just so you don't know. Can't know everything. So Just so you don't know. Yeah. That's right. Yeah. That's the hardest thing to do, I think, is to say you don't know. Exactly. I mean, I don't know a lot of stuff. So who, you know? Very true. We're just all spitting in the wind here and hoping that it's not blowing our direction. So
[00:46:36] Unknown:
Farting in the wind. Hope it doesn't come back at us. I have two French bulldogs if and so if you ever been around a French bulldog, you know exactly what I mean by that. Yeah. French French bulldogs are the worst when it comes to that stuff. My boy They make a lot of noise. Oh, yeah. My my boy my boy, Charlie, at night he sleeps well, I have two like I said, I have two. I have a boy and a girl. My boy is three. My girl is four. And, the boy, when we go to bed at night, he sleeps next to me on the bed, but he he lays across the pillow with his head resting on the nightstand.
Okay. And and his and his That's bad move on your part. Yeah. And then his butt's right, like, right here.
[00:47:19] Unknown:
And Yeah. You're getting blasted.
[00:47:21] Unknown:
One one night, I I and I had my back to him, and I rolled over. And exactly at the moment that I rolled over, he let one go. And when I tell you, it went right I was like, good grief. What the hell did you eat, dude? And then I remembered that I made braised pork chops that night, and that's what he had for dinner. Oh. So He had leftovers. Oh, no. No. I cooked for them. They Oh, you cooked for them? Oh, fantastic. They they get, they get everything. They they Fresh cuts got nothing on you. No, sir. No, sir. They they got, let's see. They had, a couple weeks ago, they had, bacon wrapped filet mignon with red wine reduction.
Wow. Golly. They've had roasted chicken breasts. They've had braised pork chops. They've had I'll be taking over Charlie's position. Well, yeah. Yeah. That that actually, that that that that subject came up today at at the job too. They were they were talking about something, and I wasn't really paying attention. It was during the morning meeting. I never really pay attention. But, because 99
[00:48:25] Unknown:
Except when I have to. Well, 99.9%
[00:48:27] Unknown:
of what they talk about has nothing to do with my department, so I don't really, you know Oh, gotcha. Doesn't affect me. So, but they they start talking about something, and they they said, well well well, you like to cook, don't you? I'm like, what? I was like, Just for dogs. I said, well, what does that have to do with the conversation? What what did I miss?
[00:48:47] Unknown:
Yeah. So I had you know, we're make we're pivoting. We're gonna become one of those home, those home kit,
[00:48:54] Unknown:
companies where you're gonna give all the ingredients and put it together yourself. There you go. So I had a they made me go through my phone and show everybody pictures of the plates and stuff that I've done. And and there we go. Oh, you played them for them too. Wow. Well, I played it first, take a picture of it, then I give it to them. You know? Oh, okay. Here we go. Make it look like a mom. Favorite pets. Wow. Oh, very, very much. I mean, I love my I love my kids. I went through Good. On a on a more serious note. The and the reason why I do this for them is because, and this is like a serious moment, but, I went through a period of, where I went through a a a huge amount of loss very very close. I lost my dad. Six months later, I lost my grandmother.
And then, I lost my wife, through divorce. And then right after that, I lost my mom. All of that within a year and a half.
[00:49:42] Unknown:
Okay? Wow.
[00:49:45] Unknown:
And, everything like and was not expecting it expecting a divorce. Obviously, was not expecting to lose my mom and everything like that. My dad, we knew was sick and we knew that you know, it was that time was coming. My grandmother was 90 years old, so we knew that was coming too. But, you know, all of it come at the same time. But, so I went through a very, very bad period of time where I struggled. And, you know, when I was at my lowest and at my worst, and, you know, I I and I I say this exaggerating the situation, so don't misunderstand. But, you know, when I was when I was laying on the floor in the bathroom, you know, broken in half, basically, you know, it was my dogs that were there with me.
Yeah. You know, they were the ones that were there that that that lifted me through it. They're the ones, that gave me a reason to wake up every day. Mostly because they don't have thumbs, so they can't open the Right. You know, the food for themselves, so I have to feed them. You know? So, so, that's why I spoil them and I give them everything because they they gave me everything. So Oh, that's very nice. I love I love pleasant story. I love my babies. To hear. I love my babies. And as a matter of fact, Charlie is sitting at the door of the studio right now. I hear him whining under the door because I've been in here too long for him. So but he'll he'll get over. He'll be alright.
So we'll Like, where's that filet mignon, buddy? No. I I think he's looking for the bourbon tonight. It's Friday. Oh, the bourbon. It's it's Friday night. Yeah. You know, he's my drinker. He's he's my drinking buddy, and, you know, don't think don't think this is coffee, pal. You know? So There you go. You know, they like they say, you know, you go into your go into your meetings in the morning, just blow on it. You know, people think it's hot coffee or something like that, but it's, you know Think it's coffee. Yeah. So There you go. But, Tip of the week. There there you go. And then and the more you know, the more you know.
More you know. See, I I gotta get some sound effects for that, like, over here. The more you know, the more you the more you know, the more you know.
[00:51:43] Unknown:
There you go. Okay.
[00:51:46] Unknown:
I just messed up my whole board here, but okay. Oh my gosh. So, another thing that, you know, we talked when we we were messaging back and forth, we were talking about talking about UFOs, UAPs, USOs, all that stuff, and paranormal stuff and and whatnot. So, have you have you ever had a because again, you know, paranormal, I guess you could kinda group in UFO sightings with paranormal supernatural stuff. Mhmm. Have you ever had a a ghost experience?
[00:52:19] Unknown:
I have actually. Yeah. I don't know how I don't think I gave you too many details. So hopefully, this will be fresh for you. Oh, no. No. You didn't tell me really much of anything. I was just reading your profile. Okay. Good. I can't remember. The, so
[00:52:31] Unknown:
I tried I tried to get you to call me before the show, but you didn't wanna do it for some reason. Well, I love to go in cold. This is, this is my thing. I love the cold,
[00:52:39] Unknown:
the cold thing. So we just jump right in and start chatting and see how it goes. The, so, yeah, I do. And and but my thought is it could all be the same thing. That's that's my thing. Everybody loves to as a people, we love to compartmentalize. Right? So we're like, okay. These are ghost things, and these are alien things. And then these are, you know, demon things or these are whatever things as far as we don't know what it is and it could all be the same goddamn thing. We don't know. True. Right? Because they all have these properties that are very similar in nature to each other, where it's fleeting, it's vague. It's, you know, it it, you know, it happens. They love to try to attribute, things to this, like, paranormal, for instance. Right?
Well, it gets cold. Right? Right. But it doesn't get cold every time. It only gets cold when it gets cold. And it's like, it has to be repeatable folks. You know what I mean? Right. You have to have things happen with some kind of a regular interval that corresponds with the same thing that you saw before, not a random thing. And, and so it always drives me nuts whenever everybody just jumps to these things. Well, we're in a prison, so it was one of the prison guards. We just saw a prison guard. That's what that ghost was. It was a prison guard. Who the fuck knows? We don't know. Exactly.
There's nothing that he didn't have a badge or an ID, didn't flip out his, you know, government issued something or another. You got no fucking clue what's going on. So quit jumping. You know what I mean? It could all be the same thing, but in that vein, I'll tell you my quick story here. So, we had a bit of a tragedy myself here, but, our house burnt down. And so we had to go live someplace else for a while while everything got sorted out and, rebuilt, whatever. And that took about a year. And, so we lived in a hotel for a while, but then we moved into a rental house. And, so we moved in this rental house with absolutely nothing. Right? We show up and basically we've got just a few clothes that we've accumulated over the course of a month living in a hotel and no furniture or anything. So we get to this rental house.
My wife, God bless her, on Amazon has bed frames and mattresses in a box all delivered on the day we moved in. Right. So the, the poor Amazon guy shows up and has to hoof all this crap to the porch. And then I had to put it all together. So, we rented this house and, you know, it was in like a cul de sac type neighborhood. And so the neighbors were coming over. Oh, I'm so sorry. I heard that your house burnt down and, you know, and I had to go through, I'm not a, believe it or not, I'm not a super social guy, in the real world here. Me neither. And, and so I had talked to everybody. Podcasts are like that. Yeah. I know. We're kind of, you know, a little bit, introverted in a certain sense. And, so I talked to everybody and so forth. And one of the people there was kinda like this car salesman guy. He's like, hey, Bob. You know? Don't worry about it. It's gonna be alright. Hey. Hey. You know?
And, I'm like, hey. That's great. Yeah. Whatever. He happened to be one of the neighbors on one side of the house. And so I'm like, yeah. Well, I gotta put all these beds together if we wanna sleep tonight instead of sleeping on the floor Right. Which I'm not really wanting to do. And so I go in and put the beds and everything. Well, as we're kind of poking around the house, we noticed that the basement, door locked so that you couldn't come out of the basement. Not that if you went in the basement, you could lock people from coming into the basement. Okay. And there was a bell. So when you opened the door, it rang a bell.
[00:56:38] Unknown:
Okay.
[00:56:39] Unknown:
Hanging up off of the rafters, unfinished basement. Okay. And I'm like, that's really weird. We didn't think much of it. So, anyway, get everything together and, go to bed. So that night I wake up, I don't know, sometime in the middle of the night. I have no idea what time it was because we didn't have an alarm clock or anything. I have my phone, but I didn't look at it, I guess. And I look over, we didn't have any curtains, but we had, blinds, like mini blinds. And I see a shadow, which I'm thinking is outside on these mini blinds. Okay.
[00:57:20] Unknown:
I would have thought the same thing.
[00:57:22] Unknown:
Yeah. And so it's like a person kind of like swaying back and forth. And I'm like, that fucking neighbor car salesman guy is looking in my window. That's what I thought. Yeah. Why not? But I was exhausted because of all this, you know, turmoil of getting situated, you know, and making all these beds and stuff. And so I go back to sleep. And this is this is when we first moved in. So the next morning I get up and my son comes to me. He's, like a teenager, you know, like high school age.
[00:57:56] Unknown:
Okay.
[00:57:57] Unknown:
And he goes, and, he goes, dad, a shadow came through my door and try to grab my leg.
[00:58:09] Unknown:
Really?
[00:58:10] Unknown:
Yeah. That's interesting. He was up. He, we had gotten him an iPad, while we were at the hotel. So he has stuff to do because everything's gone. Right. You got nothing. And so, you know, give him something to do. And, and so he said, yeah, I was playing the game or whatever, and this thing happened. And then I, you know, ran out of the room. I didn't wanna bother you. And I was staying in the living room with all lights on, which is where we found him. And I'm like, in my head, I'm like, wait a minute. Hold on a second. I saw this thing in our bedroom, but I thought was outside of that was a weird neighbor.
Maybe it was inside standing in front of that window. Right. Of course. And I realized that I saw the same thing that he saw and, but we have to wait a year. And it's not like I could rent a number of houses because I don't know if people realize, but whenever your house burns down, you still pay your mortgage. Oh, yeah. Yeah. They don't, they don't stop that. Even though there's no house, you still gotta pay the mortgage. And so I'm like, we're stuck in this house now. And so I had to be, you know, the dad and I said, oh, I'm sure it was nothing, buddy. I'm sure you're just tired. And you just imagine this whole thing.
So I go, if it happens again, you know, let me know, you know, we'll see what's going on. So couple nights go by. He's like, I was up late. I come out to the kitchen and that thing was walking through the kitchen and walked out to the garage. Really? Yeah. I'm like, again, again, we're we still got like months to go on this lease. I'm like, I'm sure it was nothing. Don't worry about it. If it happens again, you know, I'm sound like a broken record at this point. I'm trying to placate him. I don't wanna tell him he didn't see it. I don't wanna tell him, you know, that he's being nutty or something, but I don't want him to be afraid of where we live.
Of course not. And so I placated him again. So we have this unfinished basement. We hear noises down there. There's absolutely nothing except for a hot water heater and a furnace in this basement. Is a concrete basement Always the basement. It not regularly. And I'm like, oh. So I haven't at this point, I am the only one who can corroborate with my son and I'm playing it down. I don't tell my wife. I don't tell anybody else in the house here. I'm like, I gotta play this through. Right? So we get a dog because we had animals and, they perished in the fire and we get a dog and the dog, you know, you gotta play with the dog. So we would take the dog downstairs and throw a tennis ball around, because it's just a big empty concrete room, Throw the tennis ball in one corner, dog wouldn't go get it ever.
So one corner of this basement, dog won't go there if the ball goes there. If it rolls there, if it's in that corner, he's not gonna touch it. It has to be outside of this area.
[01:01:31] Unknown:
That's weird. That is yeah. That's interesting.
[01:01:34] Unknown:
Which I always think animals, you know, they have different senses than we do. And so I agree. Yeah. I think they're a little more sensitive to certain things than we are, you know, hearing visually and so forth. So, so that was weird. So what we live through all this, so when we get we get done and, we finally move back into our house about about, nine, ten months later. And I I apologize to my son and my wife, and I admit, yes. I saw the same night I that you saw something come through your door. I saw the same thing. I'm sorry. I put you on for ten months because we couldn't there was nothing else. We we couldn't had nowhere else to go. You had to put the game face on.
Totally. And oh my gosh, my wife was so angry with me. Well, she was so angry with me. You did the right thing. I didn't tell her, but you did the right thing. I think so. I mean, I had to. Now now looking back at it, and and the other thing is I didn't talk about this for two years after it happened. Okay. So even on our show, which I talk about all kinds of kooky stuff, I I was so shaken by this whole experience and having to do this. I waited two years until I even mentioned it. And, I mean, because it was so bizarre and so disconcerting. Now looking back on it, you know, how being, almost six years now, since it happened, I think it was just seeing who we were.
It wasn't, you know, ominous. It wasn't a demon. It wasn't anything. I, I firmly believe it was some other form of a being
[01:03:21] Unknown:
interdimension, whatever you wanna call it.
[01:03:23] Unknown:
And it was like, well, what, what are these people doing here? And it checked us all out, and then it had, like, a place downstairs, you know, and it went down there and then lived its existence. And I'm sure it walked through the house again, and we just never happened to see it, and did it's it lived it existed with us for all this time. Nothing ever happened. No, no real negative things other than it scares the bejesus out of you. Yeah. But I think that it's just, you know,
[01:03:57] Unknown:
some other thing. That's a wild story, man.
[01:04:00] Unknown:
And then nothing ever happened when we moved home. It didn't come with me. It didn't contact me. It didn't talk to me. You know, and I didn't seek it either. I mean, I was, you know, I was pretty much like, you leave me alone. I'm gonna leave you alone. That was my edict in my head at least. Okay. And, and we just went about our married business. But, yeah, I think that's why I think, you know, everybody kinda puts when I started this, everybody kinda puts their own views onto these things when in reality, I think that it's totally something totally different.
[01:04:35] Unknown:
Yeah. I I could agree with you on that. I I think a lot of it is interdimensional stuff, and I think they just kinda pop in and out. It could be. You know? But, I do have a story I could tell you. It was just Sure. Kind of interesting. So, my my my ex wife and I, we had purchased our second home up in New when we were living up in New York, and, we bought the home from an estate. So the, the previous owners had passed away. They were the original owners of the house. The, the husband, the father passed away many, many years before, and the mom passed away maybe, I think, a year and a half or two years before we purchased the house.
And, my wife at the time, when we were up in in the in the bedroom, and we were just unpacking, like, all the bedding and all that stuff, and, the kids weren't home. They they were in school, and, I remember we were in the bedroom, and I was on one side of the bed, she was on the other, and we fluffed up the sheets, like, to pull them down and and to lay them down on the bed. And when we did that, when the sheet went up, we heard a a woman's voice as clear as day, like, as clear as you and I are speaking right now. Mhmm. Just like a whisper say, who is that? Just like that.
Weird. And when the when the sheet came down, my wife was looking at me. I was looking at her, and she was like, did you say something? I said, no. Did did you? So she goes, no. I said, what did you hear? So she was, no. No. No. No. No. What did you hear? Uh-oh. So I I said, what I heard? And she was like, yeah. That's that's what I heard. I said, okay. Well, let's just leave it at that. You know? I I guess that's Nothing else happened? Anything else? No. More stuff happened later. Oh. So so I I was I was downstairs in the kitchen, and the kitchen was kind of like a u shape. You know? So, there was like, like like the the the the sink countertop faced a step down to like a family room.
Mhmm. And, so I was washing dishes in the sink, and behind me was the stove, the dishwasher, and all that stuff. And, so I'm I'm washing dishes, and all of a sudden, I hear glass shatter behind me. I turn around, the whole front of the of the oven shattered. Oh, wow. Like completely shattered. That's terrible. Yeah. So I was like, alright. Now I know I didn't drop anything. I know I didn't throw anything over my shoulder to do that, and no nothing fell. So I thought that was kind of interesting, and I was like, alright. Well, I guess the previous owner's not too happy with us right now. So It may be. You know, so I I didn't, you know, I'd make a big deal over it. I just, you know, cleaned it all up, and I called the manufacturer, ordered a new piece of glass, came, I installed it. And, couple of days later, came down in the morning to get ready to go to work, glass was shattered again.
And, so I was like, alright. And I said, well, I'll I'll I'm gonna change this one more time. And after that, I'm not doing it anymore. That where there's no glass. We're just gonna heat the whole kitchen. That's exactly right. So I I changed it, and then nothing happened, after that. And then, it was another time where where, we had just finished having dinner, and we, my my wife was washing dishes. I was drying and putting them away, and, I opened up the the cupboard to put the the glasses away, and I put the glass down, and as soon as I put it down, wasn't like I I didn't like like slam it down. I just put it down, and it shattered. It was like just broke into a million pieces. So What what kind of glass was it? Was it fancy, or was it No. No. It was like a regular drinking glass. It was like something Regular Yeah. Okay. Like Target drinking glass. Kmart, Walmart, whatever. Yeah.
So so of course, I got yelled at, you know, from my wife. She was like, yeah. Be more careful. You know?
[01:08:25] Unknown:
What's slamming these glasses? Yeah. Yeah. Rust in the oven.
[01:08:29] Unknown:
So so, Picking glass out of cookies. Christ sake. So so, yeah. We clean clean all that stuff up, and that and it happened twice after that, but not like right on top of each other. Then, in in our basement, like I said, it's always the basement. Okay? Our basement was kinda like a it's like a semi finished basement, like I I if I would have put a a stove and all that stuff down, I could have probably rented out the basement and had, you know Oh, okay. Had a cool apartment. Yeah. I very easily could have done that. Had a private entrance coming in from the side. It was it was really nice. But that was like kinda like my little hideaway. Like I would go down there and study and, you know, do my workouts and stuff like that and, you know, whatnot.
But there was one spot in the house that just every time I passed by there, I I I would get like the the heebie jeebies. You know? Like all the hair in the back of your neck would stand up. So, so and and where it was is there was a a like a closet, and you open up the closet. It had the main drain for the house Oh, yeah. In that closet. That's that. Yeah. Exactly. And and it was just, you know, it was all the all those water connections. And I remember, you know, I I grew I, you know, I I grew up, in a somewhat religious home. And, as I got older, I I became a born again Christian, and, I've studied scripture a lot, and, you know, I was very active in the church at the time then. And, I remember talking to my pastor about this stuff, and and he made a point. He's like, he goes, if you ever notice, you know, demons like to hang out in in warm wet places.
That's why they like to inhabit human bodies.
[01:10:01] Unknown:
Okay. Okay. There's like a sack of hot water. Okay. There you go. So,
[01:10:08] Unknown:
I was thinking, well, you know what? If that's the case, then that very possibly might be an explanation for that, because it's a warm spot, it's a wet spot, you know, it's that type of thing. So what I did is I I took a bucket, and I put this bucket in front of the door to that, that where that drain was, and I took a bible and I opened it up, which random page, nothing specific. I just opened it up, and I put it on top of that bucket, and I went up to bed. Came down the next morning, I was up before everybody else. I went to bed last, like my kids were already asleep, and they were kinda young, so they were asleep. And, my wife was already in bed, and, you know, I came down the morning. I I it was before everybody woke up, and I went down into the basement, and the bucket that I had set up the night before was knocked over, and the bible that I put there was flown across the room.
[01:11:01] Unknown:
Oh. Yeah. Scary. Yeah. Quite. Quite.
[01:11:04] Unknown:
So That's weird. Yeah. So I didn't really say anything about it to anybody. I I did it again another night, a few nights later, and, it didn't happen again the second time. But what did happen though was that door to the closet was open, which I didn't normally leave open. It was always closed. So, I had I told my wife, and, I said, hey, you know what? I got a great idea. Why don't you need you you need to get away for a weekend. Why don't you take the kids? Why don't you sleep downstairs? I'll just That's why we got divorced. Yeah. No. What you know, why don't you take the kids and, you know, go to your sisters, spend the weekend at your sisters. I I gotta work this weekend anyway, which I didn't. But, you know, I had to work this weekend anyway. So just go ahead, go go to your sisters for the weekend, and you know, do your thing, and you know, I'll see you when you get back. Come back Sunday night, whatever.
So she's like, yeah, I think I'll do that. Okay. So they left. Bro, I ran down to the basement right after they left, and I positioned myself in the furthest corner of the basement. I shut off everything. I shut off the power to the whole house, and I sat down there with an infrared camera. Oh my gosh. This is hardcore. Oh, yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Well, I was watching Ghost Adventures and Ghost Hunters and all that stuff, you know, taps and all that crap back then. So Yeah. So, so I had this video camera that had, night vision on it. And, so I positioned myself at the furthest I could from the closet, and I sat there all night with the camera on that thing.
Just recording it. On that door, just waiting waiting and nothing happened. Mhmm. Okay. That's too bad. No. It was good because if something did happen, I probably would have died right there on the spot because because the only way to get out of the basement would have been to run past where that door was. So I didn't really plan it well at the time, but but what did though happen is, that morning when I shut everything down, I went back I went back upstairs, and, the washer and dryer and everything was down in the basement. So I just grabbed all the laundry, I went downstairs, I went to throw it in, and that freaking door was was open. Oh my gosh. Which was not open when I went upstairs.
So, so yeah. But but then after that, like it did nothing really happened. Like, and we were there for a couple years, and you know, didn't hear any voices after that. Didn't nothing broke like randomly. But every now and then, you would you would feel like, I'm not alone here. You know, you would get that that that chill that just kinda goes up this back of your, you know, the back of your neck. And, yeah. So that would that was my that was my my one experience.
[01:13:49] Unknown:
That's creepy.
[01:13:50] Unknown:
Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. It's light. And expensive. I mean, those thing those glass, for the oven is not cheap. No. No. No. Not really. Especially especially that oven. That that was like one of those, almost not not not one of the Vulcan ones, but it was like a commercial grade. Oh, okay. You know? So it was pretty Pricey. Yeah. I don't wanna say expensive. I was gonna sound cheap, but, you know, but it's That's alright. Oh my gosh. This is great, man. It's well so, I think, I think we're at the point here where I'm gonna we're we're over the hour. So, we're gonna start to wrap, this whole thing up here. So, Bob, so give us, give us some ideas as to where we can find you, and, and then I have a I have one more question for you. With a closet in the basement.
[01:14:41] Unknown:
Just come just watch the door. No. You're you're gonna you're gonna you're gonna come out of the closet, Bob? Is that what you're saying? That's right. Yeah. Yeah. This is the show to do it. Yeah. Absolutely. Yeah. After all these years of being heterosexual, no. So now you can find the as I got actually, a a new thing going. But, anyway, you find me at Stack Radio. I've been doing that forever. Woah. Woah. Woah. Woah. Woah. Woah. Woah. Woah. Woah. Woah. Woah. Woah. Woah. Woah. Woah. Woah. Woah. Woah. Woah. Woah. Woah.
[01:15:06] Unknown:
What's the new thing? Oh, I'll get to that. Oh, okay. Alright. Good. Okay. I wasn't gonna let you go without things so You can't do a teaser like that.
[01:15:14] Unknown:
Do instead so static radio is, kind of a comedy thing and so forth. And I got a spin off, where, I got a thing called Mondo Frico that I'm doing with the, Rob Howell. And, we talk about mysterious things, oddly enough, but things we haven't experienced. I've only experienced a couple things, but we talk about mysterious things. So this last the the new one coming out is about the Mongolian death worm, which I'd never heard about. I've never heard about it. So we, we pick we random we have a randomizer. We pick a random thing. It could be a cryptid. It could be a UFO. It could be paranormal. It could be whatever. And then, Rob is a a researcher, and I am just a smartass. And so then we talk about this thing No. I really never would have known that.
He he he gives me a little clue what's it about. We kinda go back and forth, and, it's called Mondo Frico. It comes out, like, about every two weeks or so. But Star Trek Radio is every week, and it's funny stories. But, yeah, those are the things I've got going on. You can find it either place, either place. And then I, you know, hop around. I try to guest every once in a while, like, on the pod match dealio and and, be on your show and talk to you about cool things. Well, I appreciate you coming on the show. In the closet. That's right.
[01:16:33] Unknown:
Well, I would love to have you come back on the show and do some more stuff with us. This was a lot of fun and and and definitely a much needed, reposte from the, from the usual political stuff that we talk about here.
[01:16:47] Unknown:
Yeah. I'm not much into politics.
[01:16:49] Unknown:
Yeah. Yeah. You know, I I never intended the show to be really about strictly politics. Like, I wanted to do this type of show more, you know, more anything and everything stuff.
[01:16:59] Unknown:
And, Yeah. I love to talk about weird stuff. I mean, that to me, the mysteries of the world are are I mean, I love to obviously, you know, crack up stuff and be goofy and joke and stuff like that. But the mysteries of the world always, is great to me. It, and mysteries in the sense of, like, we we were talking about with the paranormal and so forth, but also mysteries in the sense that, you know, our government's not telling us what they know. I mean, it's a mystery. Right? Yeah. I think that there's a lot more known, about, UFOs or UAPs or whatever you wanna call them than they're letting on, and and that's one of those things that, bothers me because, you know, we're we're supposed to be, you know, sharing these things. We're not supposed to be we're supposed to be in it together. You know what I mean? So Absolutely.
No. I I So we need to know. I mean I mean, I understand it's like, okay. Yeah. I can being a a father and and from my story, I can understand. Okay. There's these aliens are waiting in a ship above the, ionosphere, and they wanna come eat us all, but they're taking their time. Maybe I don't need to know about that. But if that's not the case, then we we need to, you know, we need to know. Oh, there you go. Mongolian death worm. There you are. Yeah. Well, that's for some reason, it's not popping up on my screen, like, on the Oh, I see. Yeah. Most bizarre, cryptid I've ever heard of. Yeah. There it goes. The Mongolian death worm. If you don't know what it is, you can go to mondo freako or just Google it, you know, whatever. This is actually a movie.
Oh, that's a movie? Yeah. IMDB.

Mongolian
[01:18:38] Unknown:
death row in 02/2010. Exaggerating because they're only five foot big. They're only five foot long according to the, official official version.
[01:18:47] Unknown:
So they're they're kinda it it's like tremors there, I guess. Yeah. That's that's it's weird. I'm gonna have to see if I could find that. I'm gonna see if it's on,
[01:18:55] Unknown:
on Tubi. On Netflix. It's oh, it's on Tubi more than likely. Probably. Yeah. I love Tubi. Tubi's great. Everything interesting is on Tubi.
[01:19:04] Unknown:
You gotta watch commercials. It's like, I thought we're past broadcast television for Christ's sake. No. I don't I don't mind the commercials on Tubi because, you know, they're all they're not long. It's like just like one or two maybe, but but it gives me a chance.
[01:19:18] Unknown:
Royal match. How many more royal match,
[01:19:21] Unknown:
commercials do I need to see? Oh, yeah. Well, that you probably get different ones than I do get up over here. I get mostly Spanish language furniture commercials from from, Mexico.
[01:19:31] Unknown:
That's great.
[01:19:33] Unknown:
Fantastic. Which and you know how you know how some of that that that, those those Mexican TV commercials can be, like, you know, really wild. All Novellos and stuff. Yes. I'm I'm in love with my bedroom set. Yep. Exactly. But the, so yeah. It's probably on Tubi. I I watch a lot of Tubi, and I I like Yeah. Tubi's great. I like watching the, like those crazy exorcist kind of movies. But you know what? Actually, I know I was gonna say we're gonna wrap this, but we'll we'll keep going. The, I got I I I've been watching Italian giallo movies. Have you ever seen those?
[01:20:11] Unknown:
I don't think I've ever seen so say that again, giallo? Giallo. It means yellow in Italian. So in in in Italy,
[01:20:19] Unknown:
they they used to have, these books and magazines, like the graphic novel stuff. Yeah. Exact yeah. Kinda like that. Yeah. Exactly. Oh, okay. And what they would do is is they would wrap them in a yellow cover so that so that it was identifiable, you know, as this is, like, more adult based material than than, you know, other stuff. I you it's funny because I actually know somebody,
[01:20:43] Unknown:
who he doesn't doesn't necessarily do Italian movies, but and, you know, I'm not implying anything when I say his name. This is the what he goes by. His name is doc Sleaze and he loves to watch. He's British. He's he's in, he's in, not in London, but outside of London somewhere anyway. But he talks like those movies, like you're talking about Italian movies, all kinds of European movies that are, you know, underground cinema or b cinema or whatever you wanna call it. Or lower. Or lower. Yeah. And he loves them, and he does a a whole thing on that. Yeah. Doc Doc Sleeves, if you wanna look him up, He's a he's a really nice guy. He used to work for the Ministry of Defense. Oh, nice. In Britain.
But he's a really small he's a really nice guy. That's funny.
[01:21:32] Unknown:
But, yeah. So so I get into these Italian jello movies, and and, that that's like so if you go if you ever, like, saw my Tubi, like, continue watchings or, my my my watch list on there, it's all all these old Barber Steel movies and, you know, all these Italian language movies that make no sense whatsoever.
[01:21:51] Unknown:
And they're so over the top, and they're so just gory and just nasty. And just I think there's a lot of those clips. I think, if you're, like, on social media, you'll see where they, like, they shoot somebody, but there's no, no blood really or anything, and the guy dies really, really slowly. He, like, falls down, and he falls down some more, and then he, you know, it it's like so, you know, low budget that they don't even have squibs or anything. There was one movie that I saw. It was it's called,
[01:22:20] Unknown:
I think it's Il Demonio or something like that. The demon? Yeah. Something like that. And, they had the the the there was this one scene in the movie where they had this this this young woman tied up between two trees. Mhmm. And Like a trunk kind of thing. Yeah. And, and and this guy comes along with this freaking, like, lumberjack saw and just, like, saws her in half. Right? Oh. Like, right down the middle. You know? I
[01:22:52] Unknown:
can't remember the name of it, but I saw one of those, and I know it was a foreign land. I didn't know it was a call a giallo movie, but I saw and they cut a woman in half as well. And I'm like, what is it with this cutting the women in half? It must be a a trope. It well, yeah. It's it's a frequent thing, you know. Those movies are so such such exploitive movies. They're they're terrible. Yeah. Exactly. Yeah. They're like, exploitation movie. Yeah. Exactly. They they but they're great. Wild. They're great though. You you sit there, you watch, especially if if you have a few drinks and you're sitting there and you're watching that. Like, was it Mano's Hand of Fate or something like that? It's kinda like that. Right? Yes. Yes. Exactly. Yeah. And I think, I think that's Italian,
[01:23:28] Unknown:
though. I don't think that maybe it is. No. No. It's not. It's, I I know the movie you're talking about. I've I've seen I've not seen the whole thing. I've seen parts of it. But, actually, as a matter of fact, Terrifier, did a scene like that in, I think, it was the the first one where he cut took a he took a a hacksaw and and cut this woman in half, you know, from Oh, jeez. Like, he had her hanging upside down, spread eagle, if you know what I mean, and he started cutting there.
[01:23:56] Unknown:
Because the the hardest part is the starting of it. So when you hang them upside down, it's much easier to get started. Oh, you've already got a groove to go into. So No. Of course. Absolutely.
[01:24:05] Unknown:
You know? It's kinda it's kinda like I I told a coworker one time, so you know what I hate? I hate when I clean out my freezer and I find people I don't remember putting in there.
[01:24:16] Unknown:
You gotta get a grease pencil and write on that wax paper. You gotta start doing that. Yeah. Yeah. Otherwise you lose track. Years go by and the next thing you know, you're defrost in the freezer and you're like, I don't know what the hell this is. Ground Mongolian death worm. Yeah. Mongolian
[01:24:32] Unknown:
death worm. There you go. Alright. Well, on that on that happy note, we'll, we'll we'll start to see it again. At all. Yeah. No. Not at all. I don't know if you wanna hang out while I close the show out. You're more than welcome to. Yeah. I'll just I'll hang here and listen in, if that's alright. Sounds good to me. And then, of course, I would Maybe I'll say something. Who knows? You could. Absolutely, if you wanna jump on in there. But, definitely, I wanna invite you to come on the show again at at some point and, you know, know, maybe do something a little more, regularly together. It would be a lot of fun, I think.
