| Visit ufoshift.com for live streaming and chat. | |
| Hey, everybody. | |
| Welcome to the Gapcast tonight. | |
| I'm Eddie Dean. | |
| We've got Owen and Jazz Munda and B-Dub. | |
| All the regulars are back with you tonight after Jazz Munda was, I guess Jazz was on a timeout last week. | |
| Would you like to be irregular? | |
| Would you like to maybe talk about that punishment there, Jazz? | |
| Well, let's just say it had something to do with inhaling too much of our sponsor's product. | |
| Tanko, yeah. | |
| Interesting. | |
| So what happened? | |
| Well, I wouldn't have minded it so much, but he took mine. | |
| Yeah. | |
| The free samples. | |
| Yeah. | |
| So does it really smell like a fart, but feel like heaven? | |
| Isn't that the catch line or the phrase? | |
| The slogan? | |
| Hey, guys. | |
| It's very addictive. | |
| I've got something I need to get off my chest. | |
| Go ahead, B-Dub. | |
| There is no Tanko. | |
| There is no Sphinctinex. | |
| You'll remember several weeks ago, I made a joke about bottling my farts and that you'd receive a package at any day now. | |
| Oh, no. | |
| You don't remember that? | |
| Yeah, I remember that. | |
| Well, I hope you've enjoyed it. | |
| How dare you, sock? | |
| What have you been eating? | |
| Love it. | |
| Sphinctinx. | |
| Uzarus. | |
| Ha ha. | |
| Wow. | |
| And it's not even April Fools yet. | |
| That's tomorrow, but Eddie's here. | |
| It's close enough. | |
| Wow. | |
| You bastard. | |
| I think we need to put B-dub in a timeout. | |
| Oh, man. | |
| You're drunk with power, sir. | |
| I am. | |
| I have all the buttons under my finger and I can just mute you whenever I want. | |
| Unfortunately, if I mute B-dub, then I mute Onan and Jazz Munda too, because they're all on the same channel. | |
| And probably no one would notice. | |
| Go ahead. | |
| Yeah, maybe they wouldn't. | |
| I don't know. | |
| Be just like home. | |
| If you guys would like to join us on the show tonight, the number is 623-242-2278. | |
| Again, that's 623-242-CAST. | |
| I wanted to start the show and ask you guys about something about Bellgab. | |
| What's the best moment that you remember in Belgab? | |
| To me, it was the whole lead-up to the Art Bell return. | |
| Yeah. | |
| You know, the changing of the website and, you know, the discussion. | |
| And even before that, just the anticipation of, will he come back, won't he come back? | |
| That seems to have started in January of 2013, didn't it? | |
| I remember there was some rumblings. | |
| Art posted something or didn't post something. | |
| He put out a press release saying that he might be coming back or I don't remember exactly all the details, but I seem to remember that there were some rumblings of Art coming back in January of last year, maybe February, and then it kind of fiddled out. | |
| And then Fort Rock said something, you know, that picture was posted with his clock in the back that said 4.02 or something. | |
| And Fort Rock was saying that he would be back by April 2nd. | |
| You know, all that whole speculation that went along with Art's possible return. | |
| Yeah. | |
| Did I cut somebody off? | |
| No, no, it was, I think it all started. | |
| Art made some comments like stay tuned. | |
| He kept saying stuff like stay tuned. | |
| And he never really gave any, he never, he never followed up on it. | |
| And everything was just stay tuned, stay tuned. | |
| So, you know, I think from that, people speculated that he was coming back. | |
| And it turns out that he was in the end. | |
| Help me. | |
| I think there was one. | |
| Yeah. | |
| I think there was one or two cryptic messages right before they started changing the website. | |
| Yes. | |
| But I don't remember what they were. | |
| See, I missed that whole announcement in the summer of last year. | |
| And I missed the launching of artbell.com with the countdown and all the mysterious stuff that went on there. | |
| Because I took a break from Bellgab for a month or two. | |
| And when I read in the news that Art Bell was actually coming back, that's when I went back to Bellgab and saw that it had exploded. | |
| And everybody was talking about how cool the website was and the countdown and all the speculation that went on with that beforehand. | |
| But can one of you guys tell me what his website looked like before the announcement or right after the announcement? | |
| Was it a countdown clock or was it some strange didn't it start with an exclamation point? | |
| Yep. | |
| It was a completely black screen with an exclamation point in the center. | |
| And then the exclamation point changed colors. | |
| Yeah. | |
| And I asked. | |
| And then it was three exclamation points. | |
| Yeah. | |
| And then all the colors, if you held your mouse over him, you got some link or something. | |
| I can't remember what it was now. | |
| Linked to like classic proper music. | |
| That's right. | |
| Yeah. | |
| Ah, those days. | |
| How naive we were. | |
| And now it's all gone. | |
| It's been ripped away. | |
| Ruined everything. | |
| God damn it. | |
| You know, what I remember is my favorite time at Bell Gab is when G. Norrie started posting in George Nori Sucks Thread. | |
| That night he was posting and we weren't sure it was him. | |
| Oh, that sounds like Onen everybody is on call tonight, so he might get ripped away from us. | |
| We're going to have to put him on a timeout. | |
| Is he running support tonight for Tanko? | |
| Yeah. | |
| Yeah, he might be. | |
| Not another overdose. | |
| That's not funny. | |
| Tanko overdose. | |
| Oh, okay. | |
| There you go. | |
| I didn't mean that. | |
| It's like, wow. | |
| No, it was a bad wording. | |
| So the, yeah, and then when Art came in and started posting replies and pointing out that George, they hadn't actually emailed each other or something like that. | |
| I can't remember exactly what the details were. | |
| Do you guys remember that? | |
| No. | |
| I think I remember that was that night that he was on the air. | |
| He was also posting and no one was sure whether it was actually him. | |
| So we were trying to get him to do stuff on the air to make mentions of something. | |
| And yeah, it turned out it was him. | |
| That's right. | |
| I remember that. | |
| That was the Goatsy, Pray for Goatsy was the thing that I think sealed the deal. | |
| Wait, did he actually say that? | |
| He did. | |
| Put Goatsy in his prayers or whatever, you know, the listy. | |
| He said pray for Goatsy. | |
| I'm not sure if he used those words. | |
| But he said Goatsy. | |
| He did mention Goatsy. | |
| Oh, my God. | |
| There's a win for Belgab. | |
| Wow. | |
| And that was Saucy Rossi's cat, I believe, that everybody was trying to vet this G. Nori person on Belgab to try to figure out if he was actually George. | |
| And everybody was asking him to say stuff. | |
| And I guess Saucy Rossi said, pray for my cat, Goatsy. | |
| Because there were a few other things that's what George said when he looked up Goatsy on the internet. | |
| What? | |
| Oh, no. | |
| And then didn't George come back to Belgab that thread and say, is Goatsy actually somebody's cat? | |
| And I still don't know that answer. | |
| If Ross actually has a cat named Goatsy or if it was just fucking with everybody. | |
| Goatsy, do you not know what Goatsy is? | |
| Yeah, I do. | |
| And I was trying to avoid the description of Goatsy. | |
| Yeah, let's not go there. | |
| We don't need to do that. | |
| But for anyone at home, I think you're going to be able to get it. | |
| Don't look at it. | |
| Go ahead, Jazzy. | |
| Do not. | |
| Hold on. | |
| Before you describe this, I have some music for you if you want to describe Goatsy and Jazz. | |
| No, I'm not going to describe it. | |
| No. | |
| Oh, really? | |
| I'm just going to ask people to go and look up the word Goatsy. | |
| Yeah, don't do it. | |
| And I'm not taking responsibility. | |
| Yeah, I found this cool 70s porn music bumper bed that we can use whenever Jazz starts talking all sexy like hey ladies. | |
| What if I talk like this? | |
| There you go. | |
| Oh yeah. | |
| He's going to make you pregnant right through this podcast, ladies. | |
| Yeah. | |
| That's just how I roll. | |
| Oh man. | |
| Do you guys believe in ancient aliens? | |
| Do you think that this earth has been visited in the past by aliens and they loaned us or gave us their technology to help us build our society? | |
| I feel like that's a two or three part question. | |
| You can take whichever part you like. | |
| Have aliens. | |
| Let's talk about have aliens visited Earth. | |
| Well, in the context of in ancient times, I suppose. | |
| Yes, those are two different conversations. | |
| There's a little house on the prairie. | |
| Little flying saucer on the prairie. | |
| Don't look at it, so it'll take take your soul. | |
| I remember reading Eric von Daniken's book probably when I was in high school, and I was just fascinated with it. | |
| I like lapped it up. | |
| I sort of believed everything. | |
| I don't know if I still believe it all, but I must say it's, you know, it's very easy to get sucked into all of that romantic notion that we were visited and sort of guided by some ancient, you know, some alien civilization helping our ancient civilization. | |
| Yeah. | |
| Right. | |
| What was the name of that book? | |
| Because I think I watched that chariots of the gods. | |
| Yeah, there's a movie or a documentary about that that was released in 1970 that I watched today. | |
| And it was interesting, but it was kind of hard to take. | |
| You know, I think that there's huge leaps of logic that happen when they're trying to connect the dots and say that aliens visited us because they don't know the true story of ancient human civilizations just because for the most part, there's really no documentation. | |
| You know, they didn't have language or they didn't have books for the most part in some of those civilizations. | |
| So we really don't know. | |
| All we know, all we can go off of is digging up their bones and their pottery and their technology that they used at that time, you know. | |
| But, you know, it may not be aliens, but it may be our ancient civilizations were more advanced than we are now or had some type of different technology or different techniques that have been lost to time. | |
| I mean, some of the pyramids, you know, that it could we build them today? | |
| Could we move stones? | |
| We can't build pyramids today because we have labor laws. | |
| Yes, that's true. | |
| But was it built by 10 million slaves or was it did they have some type of technology that could move, you know, 700 ton blocks? | |
| Because could we do that today? | |
| Go ahead, Doug. | |
| Physically, forget labor. | |
| Here's the thing. | |
| I've seen a group of people, like three people, move a two-ton block of cement using something called an Herodotus machine. | |
| And basically what it is sounds sexy. | |
| Herodotus machine. | |
| It's just a series of levers, or it's really just a lever. | |
| You use levers and shims to kind of gradually raise a piece of rock into place. | |
| And that's Herodotus. | |
| It's spelled H-E-R-O-D-O-T-U-S. | |
| I am going to post something about it. | |
| So one of the episodes of Factor Faked, they were kind of looking into this idea that, well, they didn't have front loaders back then. | |
| So there must have been an alien spaceship that moved these giant blocks of granite or whatever. | |
| Or they were levitated somehow. | |
| Yeah. | |
| And so to refute that statement, these guys got basically put together this Herodotus machine and lifted up a couple blocks of stone, or actually, I think it was concrete. | |
| It was like a couple thousand pounds. | |
| And then they got the and they got a third piece using the same piece of equipment to place it on top of the two other pieces. | |
| And they made like the whole Stonehenge doorway thing. | |
| The monoliths or? | |
| Well, you had the two slabs and then you had a third slab that went over on top of them like a door. | |
| Right. | |
| And they did all that with a couple pieces of lumber. | |
| And good old human ingenuity. | |
| That's right. | |
| I mean, I think that with the machinery we have today, we can't conceive how somebody with ropes and wooden sleds can move such huge rocks, but they definitely can. | |
| So there. | |
| So, Jez, do you believe that the Pyramids of Giza is some sort of a device, some sort of an electronic device or some sort of... | |
| Well, I've watched a lot of episodes of Stargate, and I'm hoping there's a Stargate buried under there somewhere. | |
| I don't know what it is. | |
| It just always, you know, as a little kid, it always fascinated me. | |
| I saw something one time where they were saying that it was some sort of a power source or a generator or something, the technology that was lost. | |
| It was a giant capacitor for some starship or something. | |
| Yeah, I don't know. | |
| Yeah. | |
| That seems reasonable. | |
| I think what happened is that the Enterprise got sucked into some kind of black hole and it slingshot out through the event horizon in the ancient past in ancient Egypt figured out that the only way the enterprise was going to get back to the present day or the 23rd century was if they built these, they got the people of Egypt to build these pyramids so they could use it to power the Enterprise and charge up the dilithium crystals. | |
| Sounds plausible. | |
| It's just as plausible as anything those assholes float for show. | |
| That's right. | |
| Now all you need to do is put a bunch of moose in your hair and then go on ancient aliens on history channel. | |
| I love how Giorgio Sucalos always starts his ridiculous theories with, is it possible that extraterrestrials came to Earth and did something highly unlikely and mated with humans? | |
| And that's where white castles come from. | |
| I don't know. | |
| You know, like I said before, it's just huge leaps in logic. | |
| And, you know, they're talking on a topic that they don't really have any expertise about. | |
| Eddie Dean, I'll have you know, sir, that Giorgio Sukulos speaks five languages, six if you count crazy. | |
| I would agree with that. | |
| Isn't Hancock on that? | |
| Ancient Aliens as well? | |
| Graham Hancock? | |
| Yeah, I've just been watching, well, listening, actually, to an episode from 1996 with Graham Hancock and Art Bell. | |
| And it seems Graham Hancock really doesn't like the current day Egyptologists. | |
| And it seems like he has quite a big beef with them because they don't believe him. | |
| He doesn't believe them. | |
| And it just seems like a real big shitfight back and forth. | |
| And those academics, they don't smoke marijuana all day and all night. | |
| Graham Hancock does, by his own admission. | |
| I saw a 18-minute talk on the, what is it, the TED Talks. | |
| And he was talking about he was addicted to marijuana for like 15 years. | |
| He said he was constantly high for that time. | |
| Yeah. | |
| So I don't know if that aided or discouraged his work. | |
| But he also said that he's a big proponent of psychedelic brew. | |
| What is the name of that brew, Dub? | |
| Ayahuasca. | |
| Ayahuasca brew. | |
| And yeah. | |
| I don't know where I was going with that. | |
| I completely lost my train of thought. | |
| Maybe that's why he's seeing ancient aliens. | |
| That's some good weed if he's seeing ancient aliens everywhere. | |
| I was watching a YouTube video. | |
| It's called Ancient Aliens Debunked. | |
| And it pretty much goes through point by point on some of the main points that the ancient alien crowd talks about and basically debunks it. | |
| You know, about the levitating the giant stones, saying that, excuse me, saying that there are wear marks where you could see where they drug the stone, you know, over several miles from the quarry to wherever they put it up. | |
| There were notches that were put in the stones itself for the ropes. | |
| And there was anchor points also, you know, to feed a rope in through one side, in one hole and out the other, to lift it up and do all sorts of stuff. | |
| So, yeah, I tend to not believe that aliens visited us and helped us with building the pyramids or any other giant rock formation. | |
| Don't you believe in the space buddies? | |
| They're space buddies. | |
| They're here to help us. | |
| Someone on the chat room has broken the news that Evelyn Paglini has passed away. | |
| Really? | |
| Yeah, and I just looked on Evelyn's Facebook page, and yeah, she has passed away. | |
| So that's another Art Bell alum, Bites the Dust. | |
| Remind me who she was again. | |
| What did she say? | |
| She was the witch. | |
| Oh, the witch. | |
| Yeah. | |
| She was trying to get on Dark Matter, but it ended before she could get on. | |
| Is that correct? | |
| Yeah, I think she was going to be a guest. | |
| She was slated to be a guest and didn't make it on. | |
| She was the one that sounded like she smoked a lot of cigarettes in her time. | |
| Yeah, she did have a kind of a rough voice, didn't she? | |
| Yeah. | |
| I noticed that the Art Bell quits thread has gotten about 10 posts the past two days. | |
| This is amazing. | |
| I thought it was completely dead. | |
| Yeah, I think it almost dies and then someone brings it back. | |
| Yeah, well, at this point, it's the only thing keeping that thread going is denial. | |
| Let me throw the number out. | |
| If you guys want to call into the show, the number is 623-242-2278. | |
| Well, we're talking before about Belgab, and both Eddie and I gave our favorite moments on Belgab. | |
| So, B-Dub, do you have a favorite moment? | |
| Probably the first time Art posted, that was pretty mind-blowing. | |
| The fact that he knew we existed or he acknowledged our existence. | |
| So I'd suspected at times that I'd heard MV talk about how someone was viewing the board, and he would like to tell us who it is, but he couldn't. | |
| And he really wanted to tell everybody, but he just couldn't. | |
| Okay. | |
| And I was like, well, is it George or maybe it's Art or maybe who could it be? | |
| And maybe both. | |
| I don't know. | |
| But it was when Art posted, I thought that was pretty awesome. | |
| What did he say in his first post? | |
| Was it pretty general or do you remember? | |
| Listen up, assholes! | |
| No, I don't know what the fuck. | |
| I can't remember. | |
| I'll look it up. | |
| Just acknowledging our existence. | |
| Or Belgab's existence. | |
| It was probably Coast Gab back then, wasn't it? | |
| Yeah, it would have been. | |
| His first post was, hi there. | |
| I thought it would be okay to stop in here and say hi from the high desert. | |
| I've had so many people send me links in email that refer to a post on this site. | |
| so I don't know what post that is you need some music for this story Give me the sexy music. | |
| I'll do what he might say. | |
| Should I do the sexy time? | |
| Should it be sexy time? | |
| Okay, here we go. | |
| Oh, yeah. | |
| Oh, yeah. | |
| Hi there. | |
| I thought it was a good thing to stop in here and say hi from the high desert. | |
| I've had so many people send me links in email that refer to a post on this site. | |
| All is well with the Bell family, and we are doing just fine in Peram. | |
| As far as retirement is concerned, it has been great having time with my family and my hobby. | |
| I have learned to never say never, but I am enjoying life. | |
| If any of you are hams, please feel free to join us on Echolink, W6OBL. | |
| I would be happy to try and answer any reasonable questions any of you may have. | |
| Any reasonable question. | |
| Nice. | |
| That was in February 2012. | |
| You know, maybe we should do the entire show with that music bed underneath. | |
| It seems to help, doesn't it? | |
| It's helped me. | |
| I need to be alone. | |
| Turn the lights off. | |
| Nice. | |
| Good job, Jazz. | |
| So what are some of the reasons that Graham Hancock believes that there's all this evidence for ancient aliens or a pre-civilization of some sort? | |
| I've listened to a couple of his broadcasts, but frankly, it's just, it's all but too much. | |
| I didn't really research Hancock that much. | |
| I just watched that TED talks, and I know he has several books out. | |
| But Jazz, do you know anything about any details about Hancock? | |
| I should, because I've just been listening to him talk and go on and on. | |
| He just, I think what he's saying is just that, you know, modern day, we can't do this now. | |
| The blocks are too big. | |
| You know, some of them are 700 tons or something like that, and they just can't physically be built. | |
| So he's using the fact that they cannot possibly be moved by us now or even he thinks then. | |
| So something, someone or something must have intervened, whether it be aliens or a, you know, a more advanced ancient civilization that has been lost. | |
| You know, the knowledge has been lost. | |
| Right. | |
| Extremely difficult, therefore, aliens. | |
| Well, I don't think he, I don't think he actually goes on the whole alien thing. | |
| I think he thinks that we had, you know, going back to the time of Atlantis, if that even exists, we had some technologies that have been, you know, that we can't possibly understand today that has been lost to us. | |
| I tend to agree with that more, that there's a lost civilization that was technically advanced. | |
| Maybe not from us, but from some of the earlier civilizations. | |
| But, you know, I'd be more inclined to believe that than I would be that aliens visited us back then to help us build whatever. | |
| You know, like the lines of Nazca, in Peru, they have, they called them ancient airports or runways or something. | |
| Runways. | |
| And they have different shapes. | |
| You know, there's a monkey and a spider and all that stuff. | |
| But basically, I think all it was is their religion. | |
| You know, they were paying homage to the sky gods that because in that area, Peru, it's a desert. | |
| It doesn't rain much, and they were farmers. | |
| So you would think that they would pray to the rain gods for, you know, however they could to get rain, you know, fertile crops. | |
| Plus, they beheaded tons of people to try to please the gods, you know, for rain. | |
| Are we talking about the Incas or the Perus? | |
| I believe the Incas, yeah. | |
| I think that was, I'm not sure what tribe it is. | |
| I think it's also, I think that's Eric von Deniken. | |
| He wrote a book about that as well. | |
| And he seems to think it's the that the because you can only see those things from the sky, like the animals, you know, the spiders, the monkeys, and whatever other animals, that it must be aliens. | |
| Right. | |
| I think it was basically all just for religious purposes or you could probably do the Nazca lines the same way someone would do a crop circle, you know, would get a rope and tie it off. | |
| And they're not entirely dissimilar, really. | |
| He's saying crop cycles aren't real. | |
| We said that in a previous episode. | |
| Dumbass. | |
| Pay attention. | |
| I'm certainly not paying attention tonight. | |
| Oh, yeah. | |
| Well, I've always thought that the Nazca lines bear striking resemblance to crop circles. | |
| And it never really seemed, given that, you know, most crop circles are made by maybe all crop circles are made by guys with rope and a fifth whiskey. | |
| You could do the same thing with the Nazca lines. | |
| You'd just be using a different medium. | |
| So how many ancient alien nonsense theories have we debunked so far? | |
| We're just jumping right through them. | |
| The Giza and the Nazca lines. | |
| I was listening to some Graham Hancock last night, and one of the things that he was saying that was kind of support his theory is that because there's these commonalities and all these world religions and you have these similar things poking up at the same time, that therefore that must conclude that there was a civilization that existed prior to these earliest civilizations in history. | |
| And I think that's just kind of nonsense because, you know, everybody's, we're all the same species. | |
| Our brains are pretty similar. | |
| And it just makes, it seems logical to assume that we'd be making mythological themes that would be pretty similar. | |
| I don't know if I'm explaining myself sufficiently, but it's true of, you know, if you look at a lot of different religions in the world, there are lots of commonalities that come out of it. | |
| And some people would say that that points to like a great universal truth. | |
| But then you have to consider the fact that those myths and all those belief systems are being generated by a mind that's fairly uniform, just from purely a biological standpoint. | |
| There's different sociological factors there. | |
| Even with humans 4,000 years ago. | |
| Right. | |
| Is that what you're saying? | |
| Yeah. | |
| Yeah, I would think that the basic human needs would be the same, you know, for humans today and humans back then. | |
| Yeah. | |
| But I also think that, you know, the people who built Stonehenge or, you know, some of those older settlements, they didn't really have anything. | |
| They were just basically trying to survive. | |
| You know, there wasn't books. | |
| There wasn't distractions. | |
| There wasn't television. | |
| It wasn't anything. | |
| They basically just looked at the sky and made up stories or mythologies. | |
| And they were like, how can I amuse myself? | |
| Let's build these giant stone walls that line up with the summer and winter solstice. | |
| Well, you know, and also there's the idea that those were used to help keep track of the calendar as a way to keep track of the solstice. | |
| Yeah, because in both solstices on Sunrise, the winter and the summer, the sun goes right through the doorway. | |
| You know, these rocks frame the sun perfectly. | |
| And they're also saying that there was another complex on like a mile and a half away from Stonehenge that people would go to Stonehenge in the morning on summer solstice and the sun would rise through that doorway and then they'd have a pilgrimage two miles or something like that along this river to another area that was a replica of Stonehenge, except it was made with wood. | |
| But it was a mirror image and the sun would set and it would go through the wooden doorways. | |
| So, I mean, there's this archaeologist from the University of Sheffield. | |
| His name was Mike Parker Pearson. | |
| And he's been doing, he's an archaeologist, he's been doing a lot of work and digging up a lot of things in that area and trying to piece together what exactly Stonehenge was for. | |
| Have either of you been to Chichen Itza in Mexico? | |
| No. | |
| I have not, no. | |
| Yeah, so I've been there and on the, I think it's the summer solstice, when the sun rises, it actually on the main temple there on the main pyramid, it looks as if the way the shadows are cast, it looks as if there's like a snake going up the side where the two sides, two of the sides of the of the pyramid meet. | |
| And it's just a trick of light. | |
| But it only happens on the summer solstice and it's just amazing. | |
| Yeah, I've seen pictures of that or video. | |
| Yeah. | |
| Here in Ohio, we have some Indian burial mounds. | |
| One of the most famous is probably the Serpent Mound. | |
| And off the top of my head, I'm not sure how old they are. | |
| They're a couple thousand years old, maybe a little older than that. | |
| But one of the most interesting things I've seen was there's an Indian historical site or archaeological site here called Fort Agent. | |
| And Fort Agent was a, was a, and I can't remember the tribe, but there was the part that really blew me away was when I was a kid, we went there with this, basically it was like a Boy Scout troop. | |
| And they had this, it had an amphitheater. | |
| And what, what it was was just like two hills basically that were perpendicular, basically just raised the earth and kind of created this like right angle here and made, kind of scooped out the inside so it made like a big bowl. | |
| And you could sit up in the, where these two earthen walls kind of came together in this bowl. | |
| You could sit up there and someone would be like 200 yards away from you and they could whisper and it would be like they were standing right next to you. | |
| Really? | |
| Yeah, and these were, this was something that the Indians put together like thousands of years before the Europeans came to America. | |
| So they knew how acoustics work or maybe not how it worked, but they figured out that sound travels better in an amphitheater or in a concave area. | |
| Yeah, and it really blew my mind. | |
| It's just the only other place I've seen that could conduct sound like that was like in if you go to the train station in Cincinnati, they have this huge vaulted ceiling and they have this arc that kind of goes up and then comes down. | |
| And if you stand on one side of the ark or the big vaulted circle dome ceiling and you have someone on the other end, you can whisper into the corner. | |
| It will travel up along the ceiling and then come down at the other end and the person will be able to hear you. | |
| You can just whisper and they'll hear you clean to stay, even though they're like 200 yards away from you. | |
| Right. | |
| I think they have the same setup in the Grand Central Station in New York City. | |
| No, I don't know that ancient aliens built the New York Central Station. | |
| Yes. | |
| Yes, indeed. | |
| That's exactly what I'm saying. | |
| It's been paying attention, man. | |
| Yeah, sorry. | |
| I just tuned out. | |
| Jazz. | |
| God. | |
| But I always thought that that just really blew my mind. | |
| I remember when they got everybody together and they put them at the bowl where the two walls came together. | |
| And the guy was standing like 150 yards away, 200 yards away. | |
| And you could see his mouth move. | |
| But then you just, you hear something in the side of your ear and you instantly just turned to the person next to you. | |
| But they were doing the same thing because everybody could hear the same guy. | |
| Like you, you know, and they didn't know where he was. | |
| Well, they knew where we didn't know where the sound was coming from. | |
| Right. | |
| Wasn't there. | |
| I seem to remember a topic on coast to coast about some area. | |
| I can't remember where it is. | |
| I think it's in Florida where there's weird electromagnetic properties. | |
| Rocks levitate. | |
| Is that that guy? | |
| What's that? | |
| Coral Castle? | |
| Yeah, I think that's what that is. | |
| Where there's this guy who can move large blocks of coral. | |
| I don't know. | |
| Is it coral or again? | |
| That's the Herodotus machine. | |
| Yes. | |
| Probably. | |
| So why don't we use this Herodotus machine in day-to-day life? | |
| Because it's really slow. | |
| Yeah, because cranes are more powerful, aren't they? | |
| Yeah, it's really slow. | |
| Isn't it just a system of pulleys? | |
| No, it's just a lever. | |
| It's just a giant lever. | |
| It's just a series of levers that you, it's like you. | |
| You use this lever to raise up one side of the stone just a couple millimeters, and you take a shim of wood and you just drive it in there to prop it up and then you do it to the other side and you just keep walking it up and up and up it's. | |
| I'll see if I can find a video. | |
| And how much can? | |
| How much weight can this, these things hold? | |
| Several tons, yeah. | |
| And is it cheaper than hiring a crane on a building site? | |
| You know no, like one of those. | |
| You know smaller cranes. | |
| So are you having a piss? | |
| Are you taking a piss at me? | |
| No, I'm quite interested. | |
| I once had to lift a bed um from the street into a first floor apartment and uh really, you know a mattress and we could have sure used one of these things. | |
| Oh, here it is. | |
| Here's a video, guys. | |
| Hey, we've been on hold the whole time and we haven't uh yeah, we haven't said anything. | |
| We've been waiting for you. | |
| Damn fine of you people. | |
| Damn fine, we got uh, we got some bad news onin. | |
| Uh, Tanko dropped us as a sponsor. | |
| Yeah well, they can shove that up their ass then. | |
| That's what they were firing. | |
| Corporate slogan, shove it up your ass, Tanko. | |
| So does that mean that there's no more uh, New TANK CO commercials? | |
| Oh, i'm just an april fool show. | |
| Get over yourself, I see, it's all. | |
| So do you think, being april fools, George Nori will, um will do a? | |
| You know he's famous for his bad april fools jokes. | |
| Um fuck, I mean, i'm not even gonna listen, not that I have for a number of years. | |
| But uh, i'm sure that he'll do some some stupid thing. | |
| Maybe he'll fire Tommy. | |
| What has he done before? | |
| Didn't he yell at Linda Motenhow once? | |
| Yeah, he deep lines. | |
| Well, that wasn't even April Fools, though. | |
| Oh, was that not April Fool's? | |
| I don't think he's off the top of his head. | |
| He's like, oh, this is her last show. | |
| And she's like, what? | |
| Oh, my God. | |
| And he's like, oh, I'm just kidding. | |
| I think it was on April Fool's. | |
| I think it was. | |
| What do I know? | |
| I think Norrie's just a giant douche. | |
| He's certainly the biggest fool around. | |
| I'll give you that. | |
| Indeed. | |
| Indeed. | |
| That indeed isn't very loud. | |
| How about this one? | |
| Loud and clear. | |
| There we go. | |
| Much better. | |
| So, Owen, do you have any input on the Stonehenge or the Pyramids of Giza? | |
| Any ancient alien thoughts? | |
| I think there's some pretty original thinking people that have dreamed up a lot of numbers shit. | |
| I think some of it's pretty intriguing, but I think if, you know, we were talking about it earlier about could we build them today? | |
| I think we could. | |
| Do we want to? | |
| No. | |
| No. | |
| Because they don't do it. | |
| Not unless we can put a gambling casino inside. | |
| That's right. | |
| Isn't there a casino in Vegas that is shaped like a pyramid? | |
| Yeah. | |
| Glass pyramid. | |
| The Luxor, I believe. | |
| Yes. | |
| Yeah, that's right. | |
| Yeah. | |
| Giant glass pyramid with lasers on the top of it. | |
| Lasers. | |
| Class. | |
| All the lasers. | |
| You know, there's never, I've never really had a desire to go to Vegas until I watched the Mr. Warmth, the Don Rickles story. | |
| Don Rickles was hilarious, man. | |
| He's still alive. | |
| Don Rickles is hilarious, man. | |
| Not only is he still alive, but he's still doing shows in Vegas. | |
| Really? | |
| Yeah. | |
| Yeah, if you get the right contract with Satan, you can live forever. | |
| Yeah, people loved when he would just give him shit. | |
| Wasn't he real racy? | |
| Oh, yeah. | |
| He's hysterical. | |
| What do you mean by racy? | |
| Calling people out because of their race and dirty jokes. | |
| Okay. | |
| I sometimes thought he was funny, sometimes thought he was just mean-spirited, but. | |
| Oh, he's definitely mean-spirited, but he's hysterically funny. | |
| Oh, I can't think of his name. | |
| There was a comedian who was pretty popular in the 70s who worked in Vegas alongside of him, who died recently. | |
| Oh, well, never mind. | |
| Sorry. | |
| Yeah, I don't know who that would be. | |
| Yeah. | |
| He was popular at the time. | |
| Then he just kind of went into obscurity. | |
| He was kind of the mentor of Freddie Prince. | |
| Yeah, not ringing a bell. | |
| Yeah. | |
| Don't know. | |
| Let me do a Google. | |
| All right, we'll wait. | |
| Yeah, good idea. | |
| There's nothing more fun than listening to me type. | |
| I think that's what I'm going to do is just play sound effects for the rest of the show. | |
| Yep. | |
| I think that should work. | |
| David Brenner. | |
| That was it. | |
| David Brenner. | |
| David Brenner. | |
| Well, does anyone want to call in and just talk to our George Norrie soundboard? | |
| Yeah, really. | |
| That's a good idea. | |
| Has nobody called in tonight? | |
| Nobody's called in, though. | |
| Damn. | |
| What's wrong with you people? | |
| If you guys want to call in the number 623-242-2278. | |
| This is a show about you guys. | |
| Come on. | |
| We can't carry the load. | |
| Listen to us. | |
| Obviously, we can't carry the load. | |
| And if you can and successfully have a conversation with the George Norrie soundboard, you may win the book. | |
| The coming global superstar. | |
| I'm not sure that Unscreened is done reading it. | |
| It doesn't matter. | |
| We're taking it away from her. | |
| Oh, that's not very nice. | |
| She's had it too long. | |
| So it's time for her to relinquish. | |
| I can add a book to the pot. | |
| Is it about ancient aliens? | |
| It is not about ancient aliens, but it is about aliens. | |
| What is it called? | |
| Aliens. | |
| Not ancient aliens. | |
| This is a book by our friend William J. Burns. | |
| Excellent. | |
| It is called Aliens in America. | |
| And what it is, is a book about UFOs and then how you can turn your UFO story. | |
| These stories into like a vacation. | |
| So you have all the nonsense about the sighting or whatever. | |
| And then you've got a list of hotels, places to say UFO events in the area. | |
| Oh, okay. | |
| Sounds like a really efficient way to waste your vacation time. | |
| Like a travel book. | |
| Yeah. | |
| Somebody saw a light in the sky at this spot. | |
| So here are the hotels and the restaurants you can stay at. | |
| Yep. | |
| To look up in the sky and not see what they didn't see. | |
| Yeah. | |
| I was so disappointed when I got this book. | |
| I was like, God, this is horrible. | |
| So I'm happy to volunteer this to the Gabcast. | |
| You want to read a bad book about aliens and that kind of stuff? | |
| Get Hoagland's book on the face on Mars. | |
| Jesus, that. | |
| Is it bad? | |
| Yeah. | |
| Oh, yeah, it's bad. | |
| Yeah. | |
| Like, how bad? | |
| I mean, in what way? | |
| It's been a bit. | |
| It's been 30 years since I read it. | |
| Okay. | |
| But I just remember going like, oh, fuck, one more page. | |
| Jesus. | |
| I had to write a review on it. | |
| And I was like, this is so bad. | |
| So it definitely wasn't a page turner then, huh? | |
| Well, it was written probably an eighth grade thesis paper. | |
| It was just, I wanted to gouge my eyes out every other page. | |
| Jesus. | |
| An incredible story. | |
| What's that, George? | |
| An incredible story. | |
| George seems to like the book. | |
| I don't know what you're talking about. | |
| Indeed. | |
| Yeah. | |
| Well, George is the master. | |
| I mean, I would agree. | |
| So maybe, yeah, George can talk to one of you guys. | |
| Do they look the same? | |
| Jazz, it's up to you, big boy. | |
| You missed last week. | |
| Fill it in. | |
| I think Jazz did his bit to the sexy time bit. | |
| Yeah, he missed my sexy talk. | |
| Wow. | |
| I'm really sorry to hear that. | |
| I think that should be a running bit every single week. | |
| I'll read someone's post in a sexy voice every week. | |
| Oh, yeah. | |
| Oh, yeah. | |
| God, my dick just crawled up into my ass. | |
| It's for the ladies, Onin. | |
| The ladies love Jazz Moon. | |
| Oh, boy. | |
| Okay, enough of that. | |
| Jesus. | |
| So, yeah. | |
| No callers. | |
| Let's flash that number down there again. | |
| All right. | |
| There it is. | |
| If they haven't called by now, I don't think they will. | |
| I'm tempted. | |
| I'm tempted. | |
| I'm tempted to play the music here, guys. | |
| Oh, God. | |
| Mud King wants to know if his six-year-old son can call in. | |
| Yeah, sure. | |
| Hey, yeah. | |
| You know what? | |
| Did you guys listen to the spec sheet the other night? | |
| No. | |
| I did. | |
| MV had his daughter on, or he played a recording of his daughter. | |
| So, you know, maybe we should have Mud King have his kid call in. | |
| I think we should probably prep for that. | |
| Because he's probably a lot brighter than we are. | |
| Oh, yeah, I would totally agree with that. | |
| He's going to ask some question, and we're going to go like, well, we don't know. | |
| And I'll just go to my Nori soundboard. | |
| Why does George Nori suck so much? | |
| Oh, no. | |
| It was good to hear the boys doing the spec sheet again last week after six weeks or two months or something like that. | |
| Yeah, real life gets in the way of stuff, I guess. | |
| Well, when you have a life, it does. | |
| Excellent point. | |
| Maybe I can play the Taintco commercial. | |
| Should I do that? | |
| Go ahead, man. | |
| All right. | |
| Are you frequently irritable? | |
| This is such a pain in my ass. | |
| Do you often lose your temper? | |
| Oh, goddammit. | |
| I can't believe this. | |
| Do you lash out at others? | |
| Can I borrow your face while my ass is on vacation? | |
| Do you cut people off in traffic? | |
| Hey, watch the Mercedes here. | |
| I'm trying to merge. | |
| Do you laugh at children when they break their bones? | |
| Oh, my Lord. | |
| Serve, you're right, you little shit. | |
| Do you throw rocks at handicapped people? | |
| Think fast, Rainman. | |
| Oh, the Batman hurt me. | |
| If so, chances are you're an asshole. | |
| Previously, it was thought there was no hope for assholes. | |
| But now, thanks to Sphinctinex inhalers, there is hope. | |
| Sphinctinex inhalers smells like a fart. | |
| Feels like heaven. | |
| Sphinctinex inhalers cause dehydration, osteopathic, constipation, mellitosis, continuous combustion, involuntary colonic discharge, and death. | |
| A prime product of Tanko. | |
| Hey, what gets I'm trying to merge here. | |
| I love that part. | |
| That's great. | |
| Yeah. | |
| Well, I'm just so thankful that we have a quality sponsor like Tanko to provide us with free samples and stuff to play on our podcast. | |
| But you know, you have got me thinking if there's a chance they would ever drop us, we need a backup. | |
| Well, I'm just saying. | |
| Well, we're going to work on it. | |
| Yeah, if there's anybody that'd like to sponsor the show out there, contact us. | |
| Yeah. | |
| Jazz should know some people. | |
| Yeah, let's get some of that Australian money. | |
| That down-under money. | |
| That dirty, dirty money. | |
| The down-under Tankco money. | |
| I like it. | |
| It would seem this book is not sufficiently juicy as to motivate anyone to call in. | |
| Yeah. | |
| Well, they might just be shocked. | |
| They might need a week to sit on it. | |
| That's what she said. | |
| Yeah. | |
| I was going to say, there's a double in top. | |
| You need a week to sit on it. | |
| Nice one. | |
| Good one. | |
| Hey, guys, I apologize for not being here. | |
| Thanks for music. | |
| You got to do what you got to do, man. | |
| Got to do it. | |
| Yep. | |
| You were on call, and you saved a life today, Owen. | |
| Yeah. | |
| You helped so do today. | |
| You weren't doing support, tech support for Taintco? | |
| No, no. | |
| I wish I would have been, quite honestly. | |
| Thanks to everybody at UFOShip.com in the chat room. | |
| Thanks to OwnenbW and Jasmunda. | |
| Who else do I think? | |
| Thanks to the callers that called in tonight. | |
| We had many, many, many. | |
| And I guess that's it. | |
| I'm Eddie Dean, and we will see you next week, everybody. | |
| Good night, guys. | |
| Good night. | |
| Good night, guys. | |
| Thanks for calling. | |
| So, not really. |
