Speaker Time Text
alex jones
Andy in Kansas, you're on the air.
Thanks for holding.
jordan holmes
Hello, Alex.
I'm a first-time caller.
unidentified
I'm a huge fan.
I love your work.
alex jones
I love you.
dan friesen
Hey, everybody.
Welcome back to Knowledge Fight.
I'm Dan.
jordan holmes
I'm Jordan.
dan friesen
We're a couple dudes who like to sit around, drink novelty beverages, and talk a little bit about Alex Jones.
jordan holmes
Indeed, we are.
Dan?
dan friesen
Yes, Jordan?
jordan holmes
Dan?
dan friesen
Do you have a question today?
jordan holmes
Yeah.
When was the last time you yourself tortured and dismembered a journalist?
dan friesen
Never.
I can say that I have never.
I've annoyed some journalists, certainly.
When I went to the University of Missouri, I wrote for my campus paper, The Man Eater, for three years, six semesters, while I was in college, and would routinely go to the J Slums.
It was the building that all the journalism students lived in, and it was a pretty shitty apartment building.
So they called it the J Slums.
unidentified
Cool?
jordan holmes
Sure.
dan friesen
Anyway, they had a bunch of parties there, and me and my buddy Nicky Gifts, he was my roommate at the time.
We were a couple townie dicks.
And so what we would do is we would get a fifth of whiskey and a 12-pack of beers.
jordan holmes
Yeah.
dan friesen
And we would drink, we would split the whiskey at the house, watching mostly the same rap videos every weekend.
jordan holmes
Right, that sounds right.
dan friesen
We would, like, I was raised in the projects by Project Pat.
Good Googly Moogly by Project Pat.
A lot of Project Pat.
jordan holmes
A lot of Project Pat.
unidentified
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
jordan holmes
I already assumed that.
When you go with one and then to two, the answer is eight or nine.
dan friesen
Yeah, yeah.
So there's a lot of Project Pat, us drinking this whiskey, and then we would take the 12-pack and go crash parties.
And a lot of the time we would end up at the J Slums.
And, man, I don't think those people liked me much.
In hindsight, I could have been much nicer.
Like, I wasn't a dick to people, but I was so socially...
jordan holmes
Inept.
dan friesen
Yeah, I was going to say unskilled.
I was just like, there was like a sense of like, I'm a mysterious force.
I write for your paper and you don't even know who I am.
And I was fucked up by the time I got there.
jordan holmes
Of course!
dan friesen
It was not the best time, but still some fond memories.
jordan holmes
So in many ways you have tortured a few journalists.
dan friesen
I stopped short of calling it torture.
jordan holmes
But you have not, what, that one that you waterboarded?
dan friesen
I didn't waterboard anybody.
unidentified
Although...
dan friesen
Shouldn't admit this.
jordan holmes
Technically, I did dismember a guy.
dan friesen
One time, I did jump in the air and fart mid-air so I could fart on somebody.
That's close to torture.
jordan holmes
That is not torture.
That is a feat.
You know what?
That's a...
dan friesen
I was 19. I was full of piss and vinegar and drunk as hell.
Trying to impress Nick.
jordan holmes
And I assume some sort of ribs if you were in Missouri at the time.
dan friesen
Sure.
And at the time I didn't know anything about Alex Jones, but now I know a lot about Alex Jones.
jordan holmes
And I am back where you were back then.
dan friesen
Indeed.
jordan holmes
Without the jump farting.
Can't do both of those at the same time.
But I only know what you tell me about Alex Jones.
dan friesen
And about my college chicanery.
jordan holmes
And about jump farting.
I didn't realize.
I didn't realize that was a thing, Mr. Mario Party.
dan friesen
I was innovative, man.
I was innovative.
jordan holmes
You were ahead of your time.
unidentified
Yeah.
dan friesen
I regret that very much.
I mean, I don't.
It wasn't that terrible, but at the same time, it's like, that's very out of my...
Personality and character.
As soon as I grew up a little bit.
jordan holmes
As long as it's 15 years ago, that's hilarious.
If you had done it in a party last week, I would be like, one, you're 34. Yeah, you're out of control.
And two, you've got to stop dismembering people.
dan friesen
Sure, sure.
So, Jordan, today we've got a really fun episode to do.
But before we get to it, I would like to give a couple thank yous to people who I would never jump and fart on.
jordan holmes
Nice!
dan friesen
Not at all.
jordan holmes
Well done.
dan friesen
Thank you.
These are people who have decided to join up.
We appreciate them oh so very much.
First of all, I'd like to say thank you so much to Travis.
You are now a policy wonk.
alex jones
I'm a policy wonk.
dan friesen
Thank you, Travis.
jordan holmes
Thank you very much, Travis.
You're my favorite county.
dan friesen
Travis County in Austin?
unidentified
Yeah.
dan friesen
Aimed after the great Colonel Travis.
I'd also like to say thank you so much to Eric.
You are now a policy wonk.
alex jones
I'm a policy wonk.
dan friesen
Thank you, Eric.
jordan holmes
Thank you very much, Eric.
dan friesen
Then, what I'd like to do is I'd like to say thank you to someone who took their donation and bumped it up a little bit.
jordan holmes
Before we do that, I gotta know.
dan friesen
C or K. What are you talking about, with Eric?
jordan holmes
Yeah.
dan friesen
It's a C. But also, they definitely used a fake email address.
jordan holmes
Oh, yeah?
dan friesen
Because it's a.beer email address.
I generally don't pay attention to people's email addresses when I get a little notification that someone has supported the show, but that stuck out to me.
That's a fake email address.
unidentified
How about that?
dan friesen
I thought that was charming.
Not as charming, though.
unidentified
Nah, that's not fair.
dan friesen
It's a push.
Equally charming to someone who has taken their donation, bumped it up a little bit.
We appreciate it very much.
Adam, you are now a globalist.
alex jones
I'm a policy wonk.
unidentified
Sorry, go home to your mother and tell her you're brilliant.
alex jones
Someone, someone, sodomite, sent me a bucket of poop.
Daddy Shark!
dan friesen
Now, Jordan, one more person to say thank you to.
This is very special.
It is a rare occasion around these here parts that what we get to do is we get to induct a new raptor princess.
jordan holmes
Whoa!
What?
dan friesen
Someone has decided to support the show in a way that even makes me uncomfortable, but I very much appreciate.
This is someone who has sent us some very nice emails in the past, and we appreciate them very much.
So from the bottom of our Alex Jones and propaganda-filled hearts, we would like to say thank you so much, Chris.
You are now a raptor princess.
alex jones
I'm a policy wonk.
unidentified
Four stars.
alex jones
Go home to your mother and tell her you're brilliant.
pastor david manning
Someone sodomite sent me a bucket of poop.
alex jones
Daddy Shark.
Bomp, bomp, bomp, bomp, bomp.
Jar Jar Binks has a Caribbean black accent.
unidentified
He's a loser little titty baby.
alex jones
I don't want to hate black people.
jordan holmes
I renounce Jesus Christ.
unidentified
I know how to read.
alex jones
I am out of control.
I've never really seen a lot of white racism in my life.
I really haven't.
I bet you money there are few living black people that have been abused by white people as much as I have been abused by black people.
Adolf Hitler, Joseph Stalin, both those guys were complete badasses.
Complete studs.
unidentified
Welcome to McDonald's.
May I help you?
I'm Benny Sanders.
dan friesen
Thank you so much, Chris.
We appreciate it.
unidentified
There's a reason we can't inaugurate a lot of raptor princesses.
jordan holmes
It takes a lot of work.
dan friesen
Takes 45 seconds of listening to Alex say stupid shit.
Today is Wacky Wednesday.
unidentified
Hey!
jordan holmes
Wacky Wednesday!
dan friesen
And today we'll be going over an episode of Project Camelot, and guys, this is so very exciting.
Gotta tell ya, straight up, Gary Cassidy went back to Vacaville.
unidentified
Uh-oh.
dan friesen
Went back to that prison and talked to Mark Richards.
And it's time for installment nine?
jordan holmes
Oh, man.
How is this possible?
What more can you wring out of the man?
dan friesen
Actually, there is some new information here, and one of the things that she...
jordan holmes
Of course there is, Dan.
dan friesen
One of the sort of main goals, I think, that she had was to, like, run other people's stuff by him, because she's getting lied to by a lot of people.
Eddie Page?
jordan holmes
Yeah.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
dan friesen
I think she wants to fact-check some stuff with him, which seems like a fool's exercise.
jordan holmes
Your heart is in the right place, I guess?
dan friesen
I don't know if it is.
jordan holmes
But it's the dumbest thing.
But then I have to fall back on...
Of course there's a ninth installment.
How do I even fucking know?
dan friesen
Oh, there's going to be a tenth one in a month.
unidentified
Yeah, yeah.
jordan holmes
How the fuck do I even know if she went there?
She probably didn't.
And if he doesn't give her any new stuff...
She's just going to make it up herself.
dan friesen
I'm positive that she did go because she spends about five minutes of this episode, which I don't have any clips of, complaining about how she was told that her outfit wasn't appropriate for prison.
jordan holmes
Okay, fair enough.
You can't make that shit up.
dan friesen
She's like, I'm not allowed to wear high heels because that's considered a weapon.
But then I get inside and I see other people in high heels.
Yeah, maybe that's okay when they're not talking to a fucking murderer.
Maybe he's on a much higher standard of security.
jordan holmes
Or maybe they've seen you talk to this guy eight other times and they're like, this isn't for anybody but you.
We're worried you're going to hurt yourself with those shoes.
dan friesen
It's possible.
jordan holmes
Because, lady, you are fucking nuts.
dan friesen
And this would be the place to do it if you want to really make it count.
Yeah.
So, Jordan, we've got installment nine of what Carrie calls, Carrie Cassidy, the host of Project Camelot, she calls...
Total recall.
Because, as we all know, just to lay a little bit of track, she goes and interviews Mark Richards in prison because he killed a guy who was involved in a murder.
Orchestrated a murder.
jordan holmes
He made sure that a man was alive and then was very shortly not alive.
dan friesen
Who mysteriously owed him money and he took a safe from him.
jordan holmes
He was off-planet, Dan!
dan friesen
He was off-planet.
So she goes and...
jordan holmes
I'm waiting for that to be Prince...
Now I can't remember.
Salmon...
I'm waiting for that to be his, like, no, Saudi Arabia was off-planet at the time!
Come on, man!
dan friesen
So she's not allowed to use a recorder when she goes and interviews Mark.
She's allowed to sometimes have a pencil, sometimes a crayon, and she writes down the answers that he gives her to...
Bizarre, stupid questions.
And we get to enjoy.
I'll say this, Jordan.
I sort of referenced this as you came into the apartment today.
And that was that, like, I worried that we wouldn't be able to do an episode when I was listening to this earlier.
And one of the reasons was I was like, this kind of is boring as shit.
I was like, this is a little bit boring.
But then I listened back to it again, and I was like, oh, I missed a lot of stuff.
jordan holmes
Okay.
dan friesen
So thankfully it was just my first, you know, sometimes you read a book first time through, it doesn't grab you.
jordan holmes
Right.
dan friesen
Second read, you start to realize some of the nuances.
jordan holmes
That's how literally everyone feels about a separate piece.
dan friesen
I don't know anything about a separate podcast.
jordan holmes
All right, I can tell you about it, yeah.
It would be a very boring podcast, your first listen.
dan friesen
But second time.
jordan holmes
Second time would be great.
New theory, before we go any further.
New theory, new theory, all right?
The prison itself, zero limitations on what sort of recording devices that you are allowed to use.
dan friesen
Okay.
jordan holmes
Mark Richards.
Is fucking with her.
And he has convinced a few of the guards to go along with it.
dan friesen
That is a possibility.
I'm not sure.
I did actually find the prison that he's in, and I looked at their, like, visiting rules.
jordan holmes
Uh-huh.
dan friesen
And it's not specified either way.
jordan holmes
Yeah.
dan friesen
About whether or not you can have a pencil or pen or anything like that.
But pencils and pens are not listed in the...
Fair.
But it's also not listed in, like, restricted materials.
So I don't know.
I can't say either way.
Anyway, we start this episode as we start every Project Camelot episode with Carrie's introduction to her episode.
kerry cassidy
Hi, everyone.
I'm Carrie Cassidy from Project Camelot.
jordan holmes
Hi, Carrie!
kerry cassidy
I am here today to go over the notes from my recent interview with Captain Mark Richards of the Secret Space Program.
jordan holmes
Grandson of the Dutchman!
dan friesen
Son of the Dutchman.
jordan holmes
Oh, he's son of the Dutchman.
dan friesen
Although we do learn, I believe, in this next clip that his grandfather was also in the Secret Space Program.
jordan holmes
Oh, of course.
dan friesen
He may not have a fun nickname.
Now, I understand that a lot of people who are listening to the show might not have listened to our past adventures with Mark Richards.
Captain Mark Richards, excuse me.
So they may not know a lot of what's going on here.
And thankfully, at the beginning of this episode, before she gets into it, Carrie gives a little bit of a break.
Breakdown of some of the relevant information you need to know about Senor Richards.
kerry cassidy
I recently went to interview Captain Mark Richards, who has been involved in the secret space program since he was a young child, actually.
And his father was also involved, as well as his grandfather, if I understand it correctly.
And his father was known as the Dutchman.
He was quite famous in those sort of secret...
jordan holmes
Multiple times.
kerry cassidy
Space program circles, if you want to call it that.
Hung out with Churchill.
As well as in the British, in Britain with the British.
unidentified
Churchill.
They hung out with Churchill.
kerry cassidy
Mark has a long history, as I say, with regard to the secret space program.
He basically grew up in it.
dan friesen
Basically he grew up in it.
He's like the Jonathan Taylor Thomas.
Why is that the only child actor?
jordan holmes
I have no idea why that happened.
dan friesen
Because he grew up in show business.
jordan holmes
Yeah, but you could have gone with Ron Howard.
Ron Howard has a continuously great career.
Much like the Dutchman.
unidentified
Mark Richards absolutely doesn't have a continuous awesome career.
jordan holmes
Then you know what?
He's a lot like JTT.
dan friesen
Yeah, maybe that's why.
jordan holmes
He was the star in his youth and now he's slowly fading away.
dan friesen
So other things, Carrie's sort of really underselling this.
Just saying that Mark Richards has been involved in the secret space program since he was a kid.
He also, like we referenced, he has a sentient spaceship named Minerva that he can fly around.
I forgot that that is an actual real person.
It is.
jordan holmes
I always forget that Joanne Richards is just a human being and not part of the grand mythology.
dan friesen
Nope, she real.
jordan holmes
I am also married to Minerva and she has a hole.
I'm waiting for that.
dan friesen
What I can confirm is that she's a CPA.
That's about it.
The rest of this stuff is I think she's being tricked by her husband who's in prison.
jordan holmes
Is she a good CPA?
dan friesen
No idea.
We'll never find out.
jordan holmes
I think we need to hire her.
dan friesen
So there's a whole lot to his mythology.
jordan holmes
For our accounting.
You know how we have so much accounting we need to do.
dan friesen
So there's a lot to Mark Richards' mythology.
But the most important thing that you need to know is that in 1984 he went to prison.
Because he orchestrated the murder of a guy who owed him money.
He got two kids who worked at his tire shop, I believe.
jordan holmes
Something along those lines.
dan friesen
I don't remember exactly what the business was, but associates that he knew from that, he offered them $5,000 and a car, a getaway car, presumably, to go kill this guy.
And he was supposedly there when the murder was committed, and they killed this guy with a hammer.
jordan holmes
It seems like it should cost more than that, and yet it never does.
You know?
Like, a real assassin works really cheap, you know?
dan friesen
It turns out it's not a function of the job that needs to be done.
It's a function of the desperateness of the person you're trying to get to do the job.
jordan holmes
Yeah, exactly.
dan friesen
You could get your lawn mowed for like $200 by a professional crew, or...
$3 to the neighbor kid.
unidentified
Right.
dan friesen
You know what I'm saying?
jordan holmes
It's that sort of thing.
I mean, for $200, you can convince the neighbor kid to kill the professional lawn crew.
dan friesen
It's possible.
jordan holmes
Yeah, take over the business.
They owed you money.
dan friesen
So we know from living in reality that Mark Richards straight up did that shit.
Unfortunately, Carrie doesn't believe that.
jordan holmes
Of course not.
kerry cassidy
As far as I'm concerned, he is one of the best whistleblowers out there.
The fact that he is in prison and has been for over 30 years is what the powers that be considered to be sufficient enough to discredit him so that he will not, So this is how we work this sort of rationale in here.
dan friesen
He's in prison.
He's been discredited so much that it doesn't matter if he tells the truth to Carrie.
unidentified
No one's going to believe him because he's a fucking murderer who's in prison anyway.
dan friesen
So the powers that be are like, go ahead, say whatever you want, big guy.
Have fun there in that prison.
jordan holmes
All I'm saying is, even if he had murdered zero people and were free, if he were talking to Carrie, that would be enough to discredit him.
dan friesen
I would say so.
jordan holmes
There's a low bar for Carrie.
dan friesen
We've gone through plenty of episodes with Carrie talking to people who aren't in prison, and I find them discredited.
jordan holmes
Now, I will say I have a hard time believing that any of her guests are not eligible for prison.
Do you know what I mean?
Like, if anybody really wanted to look into it, every single person she has...
A lot of them probably have tax crimes in their past.
Yeah, at least six months.
At least six months in prison would be the low-level guest of hers.
dan friesen
Maybe a civil fraud case?
Yeah, at least a fraud case.
I don't know if that means they go to prison, but they all should be sued by somebody.
unidentified
I'm not sure who, but somebody should sue everybody.
dan friesen
So anyway, Mark is guilty of this being orchestrating a murder, but turns out he's not.
kerry cassidy
He is innocent of the crime he's...
In for, and as I say, he spent over 30 years paying for a crime he didn't commit.
And he is...
jordan holmes
He's the one-armed man!
dan friesen
Just for some context, he's been in prison like two months shorter than I've been alive.
jordan holmes
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
dan friesen
So back when I was jumping and farting on people, he was 19 years into his prison sentence.
Let that give you some context.
jordan holmes
Sure.
kerry cassidy
Said to be the mastermind.
dan friesen
He cut a deal because he was like, oh my god, I'm going to be in prison for the rest of my life.
I didn't actually kill that guy.
I was involved.
I will cut a deal.
Very common.
jordan holmes
He's a rat!
kerry cassidy
As well as Mark.
And then now this guy, whose name is Croson David Hoover.
Apparently is talking to a journalist who's a radio talk show host in Britain who has decided to make a documentary supporting the murderer against Mark Richards.
And you kind of have to say to yourself, why would this person do this?
But nonetheless, that's what's happening.
jordan holmes
So many reasons?
So many reasons!
There's so many reasons!
dan friesen
I would say one of the biggest reasons is that Mark promised them that they would be Knights of a New Camelot after he...
After the murder ended up taking over Marin County.
So I would say that that's a great reason to make that documentary.
That's a crazy fucking story.
jordan holmes
That's a crazy fucking story!
dan friesen
It's amazing.
I can't wait for that documentary.
I would love to hear what he told me.
jordan holmes
I'm gonna watch the shit out of that documentary!
dan friesen
I would love to hear these kids' perspective.
Like, what they experienced.
jordan holmes
So, did Mark Richards give an interview to that guy?
dan friesen
No.
jordan holmes
Come on.
He has to have.
Why not?
He's throwing caution to the wind!
dan friesen
Well...
To be fair, in the next clip, Carrie will explain that Mark can't talk about his legal issues and the documentary issues.
jordan holmes
Because there are so many appeals withstanding?
dan friesen
Well, kind of.
kerry cassidy
Mark Richards has been working with a lawyer, he and his wife, to get a commutation of a sentence, which is long overdue.
jordan holmes
Except for before he was murdering people.
kerry cassidy
Sort of happening on the side is not a good thing, obviously, to have a filmmaker want to make a documentary that is supposed to be a negative influence, I guess, on the public attitude towards Mark.
But nonetheless, what's happening now is that they are not able to talk to anyone about the case simply because they are involved in...
With a lawyer in getting a commutation of his sentence.
And hopefully that will happen.
jordan holmes
Sure!
dan friesen
Doubt it.
jordan holmes
Good luck!
dan friesen
Doubt it.
jordan holmes
Good luck there, Marky!
dan friesen
Doubt it.
jordan holmes
Come on, Richards!
You better have the funky bunches, your lawyers!
dan friesen
He has life without parole.
From what I understand, the guy who committed the murder has the possibility of being paroled.
jordan holmes
Right.
dan friesen
So, I would say...
jordan holmes
Because he was just a guy, and Mark Richards is a fucking psychopath.
dan friesen
Yeah, I think the facts of the case bore out in such a way that, like, huh, who's the most dangerous here?
Who has the potential for rehabilitation?
I would say it's scarier that the kid actually was the one who did the murder.
That's scary.
You would think that that should come with a heavier sentence.
jordan holmes
Yeah, like a jump fart.
dan friesen
But at the same time, I think that it's probably pretty reasonable at this point, 30 years later, 34 years later, if that...
Kid, now an adult, has rehabilitated himself.
He's not going to commit another murder unless another Mark Richards gets him to.
And he's not going to do that because he was an impressionable kid at that point.
So the idea that that kid could get out and Mark can't, I'm fine with.
Although, at the same time, I don't like the prison system, so I'm a little conflicted.
jordan holmes
I have no idea.
dan friesen
Yeah.
jordan holmes
I would need to know so much more about the...
I know one character involved who should not be allowed to get out of prison.
That's Mark Richards.
dan friesen
I was trying to look into this prison, too, because I was like, I bet this is like a cakewalk prison that Mark is in.
I bet it's...
jordan holmes
No way.
No way is it a cakewalk prison.
dan friesen
The only story I could find was from a couple years back.
There was like a big fight that broke out in the prison.
jordan holmes
Twelve died.
dan friesen
In the aftermath, they found a guy who was cut in half.
unidentified
What?
dan friesen
Yeah.
unidentified
What?
dan friesen
Yes.
jordan holmes
You can't even do that!
dan friesen
He was cut in half.
jordan holmes
It's hard to cut a guy in half!
dan friesen
Totally.
unidentified
Especially in prison.
jordan holmes
It's a whole process!
What is this?
dan friesen
Totally.
jordan holmes
What is this, the Saudi embassy?
It's tough to cut a guy in half.
dan friesen
Guy was cut in half and stuffed in some trash disposal things.
jordan holmes
Well, that's just smart.
dan friesen
Like trying to hide the body.
jordan holmes
Yeah, yeah.
dan friesen
But then, also, in the investigation, they found a couple of his organs were missing.
And from the articles I could find...
jordan holmes
They were sold?
dan friesen
I didn't look to...
jordan holmes
Somebody sold a...
dan friesen
I didn't look too deeply into this.
I'm sure there's a resolution somewhere, but the stories that I was reading was like, no one knows what happened to those organs.
jordan holmes
How do you not know?
dan friesen
What?
How do those organs get out of us?
jordan holmes
Who is smuggling a fucking cooler in and out of a prison fight for a...
All right.
Guys, here's our plan.
We're going to sell a liver, a kidney, and fuck it, why not, 40 feet of intestine.
But we've got to start a huge prison fight.
We've got to cut a guy in half using homemade shivs.
And then we're going to get a cooler...
This is Ocean's Eleven, but in a prison.
With a guy who gets cut in half.
dan friesen
I've watched a fair amount of Lockup, and this story was like, what the fuck?
I was like, I want to learn more about this, but it's so tangentially related to the work I'm supposed to be doing that I'm going to look into that later.
But that's the prison that Mark's in, where a dude got cut in half.
No, that's a bad prison.
jordan holmes
Yeah, no, that's where he belongs.
dan friesen
I kind of get wanting to pretend and imagine and fantasize about the idea you're going to have your sentence commuted, though, if you're living in that sort of...
Mark was at that prison when that happened.
That's in his consciousness.
That's terrifying.
jordan holmes
Who did it?
dan friesen
I don't know.
jordan holmes
I'll tell you who did it.
The fucking lieutenant.
dan friesen
No, no.
unidentified
Yeah.
jordan holmes
At Mark Richards' behest, because Minerva actually feeds off of organs.
She was fucking running low on fuel.
dan friesen
Interesting theory.
jordan holmes
Needed a few organs, and he was like, listen, I can't get my hands all over this.
Lieutenant, whom I have only spoken of one time, have never brought up again or before.
You gotta cut a guy in half!
dan friesen
I was praying, not praying, I guess.
It wouldn't make me happy, but I was kind of interested, like...
Am I going to recognize any of the players in this article?
Like, the guy who died?
Or, like, the suspect?
Am I going to know who these people are because of Project K?
jordan holmes
It's a concerning thought.
dan friesen
Yeah, but it turns out it's unrelated to Mark Richards, apparently.
But related, because, I mean, it's the same place.
It's fucked up.
jordan holmes
Yeah.
dan friesen
Real fucked up.
jordan holmes
It's like...
I'm more interested now in, like, being called to deposition.
For his commutation hearing, where it's like, we have brought in two random-ass guys who have talked about Mark Richards a lot.
Do you guys feel like he should be...
Well, I suppose we have to have a...
unidentified
Nope!
jordan holmes
Why do you...
unidentified
Nope!
jordan holmes
Alright, testimony accepted.
dan friesen
There wouldn't be a commutation hearing because there's no hearing.
It's just like the governor would decree it or something like that.
But it's not even going to come to that, Jordan.
unidentified
Right.
dan friesen
He doesn't need to have his sentence commuted because Carrie knows something.
jordan holmes
Oh, God, she does.
dan friesen
Carrie knows something.
jordan holmes
I don't know what it is.
dan friesen
She's gotten some information from a source about the future of Mark Richards.
kerry cassidy
Now, for those of you that know that I've interviewed Simon Parks many times and recently...
dan friesen
He's the guy, if you don't recall, he used to be a council person in the UK.
Who would, like two or three times a year, would leave planet and have sex with an alien.
jordan holmes
Yeah, well again, by far the most heroic character on Project Camelot.
dan friesen
The sanest of the crazies.
unidentified
Yeah, of course.
kerry cassidy
And more than once, he has said that Mark Richards will likely be pardoned very soon by Trump.
As a result, or after, what is basically the indictments that are going through right now.
So the indictments are being pursued.
There's something like 40,000 to 50,000.
And according to Simon Parks, once those happen, Mark Richards will be.
dan friesen
So, Carrie believes in QAnon.
That's QAnon shit, baby.
jordan holmes
Is it?
dan friesen
Yep.
unidentified
What?
dan friesen
One of the big bases of QAnon's conspiracy and the reason that people get excited about it is part of the narrative is that the Justice Department has secretly filed 40,000, 50,000 sealed indictments that are just ready to go.
And that's why they keep making all these stories up about Hillary Clinton's fleeing the country before these indictments get unsealed because she knows she's going away forever once they get unsealed.
jordan holmes
That sounds like the justice system.
dan friesen
Sure.
So that's a big, big piece of the QAnon stuff.
jordan holmes
QAnon.
Still happening.
dan friesen
Terry.
jordan holmes
Still doing it.
dan friesen
Keeping it alive.
jordan holmes
People are still doing it?
dan friesen
These indictments are going to come down.
They're going to roll up all the evil forces in government.
And then there will only be good people there.
jordan holmes
That doesn't sound right.
dan friesen
And in part of that, Trump is going to pardon.
Mark Richards, for some reason.
jordan holmes
Yeah, sure, why not?
dan friesen
Because he knows about the secret space program.
jordan holmes
He knows!
But why would you pardon him?
dan friesen
Trump knows.
That's why he's doing Space Force, and fucking Mark Richards is going to be the head of it.
jordan holmes
All right.
dan friesen
It's the only good one!
jordan holmes
One thing I will say, now that I know a guy has been cut in half in that prison, I kind of am fine with the no pens or pencils rule.
dan friesen
Yeah, and stilettos.
jordan holmes
Yeah, I'm fine with all of those rules.
You know what, you guys?
You do your thing.
dan friesen
You had a guy dissected crayons from now on.
jordan holmes
Yeah, crayons from now on.
dan friesen
That's totally reasonable.
Unreasonable, though, to think that QAnon stuff is true and that somehow it's going to intersect with Mark Richards.
jordan holmes
It's still going on?
People are still into it?
dan friesen
Yeah, yeah.
jordan holmes
Can't people just stop?
After a while...
dan friesen
It's tough, man.
It's tough.
jordan holmes
We get so distracted by so many other narratives.
Why are you sticking with this one?
Let it go.
Move on.
dan friesen
Well, because a lot of people get tricked, and so there's an ego aspect to it, that if you buy into it, then later being like, ah, that was all bullshit, then you're going to have to admit to yourself, like, I got tricked by bullshit.
unidentified
Right, right, right.
jordan holmes
Like the Republican Party.
dan friesen
Sure.
And then there's a second aspect, too, much like this is also applicable to the Republican Party, is the lost time fallacy.
That's sort of...
I've put a year into studying this QAnon stuff.
That time is wasted if I now decide it's all full of shit.
jordan holmes
Sunk cost.
dan friesen
Yeah, exactly.
People get...
They're very susceptible to those sorts of things.
So I think that a lot of people who should see the light and be like, this is all nonsense, they won't.
They won't because those forces...
jordan holmes
It's QAnon sense.
unidentified
Yeah.
jordan holmes
New term coined!
dan friesen
That's a musical.
jordan holmes
Puppets?
I'm going to have to go with puppets on this one.
dan friesen
A 2018 reimagining of nonsense.
jordan holmes
Okay.
unidentified
All right.
jordan holmes
I'm listening.
dan friesen
It's just nonsense.
jordan holmes
Not a direct sequel.
dan friesen
Nope.
It's just nonsense, but it's all about...
These sealed indictments and Trump saying it's a calm before the storm and everybody losing their fucking mind from that.
jordan holmes
I see a little bit of Mamma Mia in there, too.
I think there should be three suitors.
dan friesen
No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
Jerome Corsi is the main character of this.
jordan holmes
Too boring.
dan friesen
No, but he's an interesting sort of conduit to tell the story because he was so into it and then it turned against him and then he's like, it's all bullshit!
So he would be an interesting protagonist because his journey...
jordan holmes
He's the audience stand-in.
dan friesen
He's the only person who has a journey.
jordan holmes
Right, right, right.
He grows and changes.
And he has the crisis point somewhere along the line.
dan friesen
Sure.
Just like that fucking nun.
When the 4chan post started saying, sure, of course he's full of shit.
And he's like, oh my god.
jordan holmes
They personally attacked me!
dan friesen
I was just trying to harmonize.
I thought you were going to go for another line.
jordan holmes
Nah, I was going to let that one go.
dan friesen
Fair enough.
So, Carrie went to the prison to go talk to Mark, but you should know that this wasn't the only interview that she had planned.
kerry cassidy
It's also important that people realize or are aware that I went to interview someone else this time as well on my way, but that person who had originally been...
Interested in doing an interview with me suddenly backed out.
And what happened was, I think he must have been intimidated.
He suddenly acted as though he barely knew me.
dan friesen
Makes sense.
kerry cassidy
And so that when I arrived in his vicinity, he was no longer available.
And on top of it, he said he, quote unquote, knows nothing about the secret space program.
unidentified
Even if he did, it would be a felony.
kerry cassidy
To divulge anything about it.
jordan holmes
Captain Mark and Colonel Clay.
kerry cassidy
Which is tantamount to saying that it's real.
jordan holmes
No, it's not!
kerry cassidy
And basically that he does know something.
But that he's no longer able to talk.
So he said this is not the time for in-person interviews, for in-person discussions, and so on and so forth.
So this is what was...
So it's very interesting because this is a very tense time.
It's quite an exciting time.
A time when the Trump administration, the people that are backing him, basically the military, these indictments are coming through.
There's 40,000 to 50,000, as they say.
And in theory, they're actually pursuing them as I speak.
dan friesen
In theory.
In reality, she's just sort of combining Alex Jones' mythology with QAnon there.
jordan holmes
Yeah.
dan friesen
It's talking about the military being on the side of these patriots and what have you.
And then throwing in the QAnon sealed indictments shit.
It is a very exciting time to be alive when you're into this stuff.
A year from now is not going to be that exciting when your narrative hasn't evolved at all.
jordan holmes
No.
dan friesen
The same thing, it's like 2012, end of 2012 was probably incredibly exciting for Carrie.
jordan holmes
Oh, for sure!
You had the whole lead-up, you could do the whole thing, and then it's like, ugh!
dan friesen
Beginning of 2013 was probably tough.
There was a hangover.
You had a little bit of like a...
jordan holmes
Oh boy, we gotta start from scratch, I guess.
We gotta do the whole thing all over again, guys.
dan friesen
So Carrie thinking that she's gonna go interview someone and the guy being like, no, that doesn't seem suspicious to me at all for myriad reasons.
jordan holmes
No, I'm pretty sure that confirms everything that Mark Richard says is true.
dan friesen
One of the reasons this doesn't even raise any alarms for me is...
Remember back on that episode where she was interviewing the guy who works at a bus station who takes pictures of the moon?
jordan holmes
Yeah.
dan friesen
And she thought that she'd confirm the time of the interview and then got on air and was like, I don't know where he is.
jordan holmes
He had a telescope, though.
dan friesen
Sure.
But I'm talking about the professionalism of setting up the interviews.
jordan holmes
Right.
dan friesen
She clearly didn't confirm the time on that.
There's a decent chance she just showed up.
It's somebody's place.
I was like, this isn't the time.
jordan holmes
That actually makes perfect sense.
dan friesen
It seems to follow her lack of professionalism vis-a-vis these interviews.
jordan holmes
No, you said we were going to record an interview.
Yeah, we didn't agree on a fucking time, lady.
Don't show up at my goddamn house.
dan friesen
This is not the time for in-person interviews.
jordan holmes
I have children who think I'm normal.
dan friesen
There's a hundred different possibilities, and none of them in the real world are...
This guy is fucking scared because we're talking truth here.
jordan holmes
See, the only way I could think that she has any kind of option there is if it was another guy in the same prison.
dan friesen
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Do you know what I mean?
jordan holmes
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Like, it could have been the lieutenant and they were in the same prison and he was like, listen, I'm not authorized to talk to you.
dan friesen
I'm not good at improv.
jordan holmes
My eyebrow waggle suggesting that whatever it is you said was true is not up to par.
dan friesen
Exactly.
jordan holmes
Because my response is going to be like, come on, man, that's stupid.
dan friesen
So there is a fundamental problem with Carrie's interview that she does with Mark today.
And that is, she sort of teased it at the end of that last clip.
She's talking about these are crazy times.
jordan holmes
Yes.
dan friesen
And in this next clip, she introduces the idea that the times are so crazy that Mark maybe can't talk about some of it.
unidentified
Sure.
kerry cassidy
Mark says because it's such a heightened time, he was not able to talk about certain things with me.
He has been instructed on what to say and what not to say.
jordan holmes
He does not have the internet.
kerry cassidy
He is still working with the military.
He is a captain in the secret space program.
unidentified
Cool, cool, cool.
kerry cassidy
In the Navy.
And he is...
jordan holmes
And the Navy?
kerry cassidy
No longer reporting to Bobby Ray Inman, he says.
Bobby Ray Inman is no longer involved, is how we put it.
dan friesen
I'd like to say that I think that that's code for someone called Bobby Ray Inman.
kerry cassidy
...reporting to a different sector of the U.S. military, a division that he's not at liberty to disclose.
dan friesen
Good, cool, cool.
kerry cassidy
He said one of the reasons he is able to talk, obviously, and other people may be more hesitant to do so, is that...
He is in prison and obviously has this disclaimer, which is in essence sort of a credibility issue.
dan friesen
No shit it is.
jordan holmes
Well, first off, now I've really finally come to the conclusion that none of this is real.
dan friesen
Finally.
jordan holmes
Because the Secret Space Program and the Navy have had a long-standing...
Bitter rivalry.
They have been playing space football games every year, and they've never been able to handle it.
So the Navy hates the SSP, and the SSP hates the Navy.
You can't be a captain in both.
dan friesen
This makes me think of Howard Kramer, the comedian Howard Kramer, who loves summer.
jordan holmes
Ah, you gotta get yourself a summer gum, dude!
dan friesen
He has that whole thing about, like, he hates movies that are in space because he likes the ocean.
But you're talking about the secret space program and the Navy being at loggerheads.
That's just a Howard Kramer bit.
Mark Richards is living a Howard Kramer bit.
jordan holmes
Yeah, that actually sounds right.
dan friesen
He's bringing the two together.
He's synthesizing them.
unidentified
Oh, man.
jordan holmes
If you get attacked by an octopus, you just punch it in the face.
dan friesen
Got to.
So...
I love, first of all, I think that he has needed to get the specifics out of some of his story lest people look into them.
jordan holmes
Right, because he doesn't have the internet.
dan friesen
Now he's reporting to a military organization that he can't name, which is good.
That should have been the case all along.
Yeah, of course.
I don't know why he would ever say specifics about that sort of thing, because this is a load of hot bullshit.
jordan holmes
That must have been, for Carrie, that must have been the best moment where she's like, Thank you!
If you don't give specifics, I don't have to defend any of your bullshit.
dan friesen
This is so much easier.
jordan holmes
This is why I've been in the problem in the first place.
dan friesen
Right, right.
jordan holmes
Everybody's saying they know shit, and then they're using names, and then you can look it up.
That guy brought me shit from a fucking video game.
Don't tell me the name of your military organization.
dan friesen
Eddie Page is like, the Pleiadian mothership is from this video.
Now I've got to say that the makers of the video game know about the idiots.
jordan holmes
God damn it!
Why are you changing my narrative?
dan friesen
Why are you making this so complicated?
jordan holmes
I'm Carrie the curator, okay?
I'm not here trying to defend shit.
dan friesen
Now look, Jordan.
I know that we come from a position of assuming that Mark Richards is lying, because he is.
But you should know...
jordan holmes
It's a strong position to start from, at least.
dan friesen
But you should know something about him.
unidentified
What?
kerry cassidy
He basically told me he would always tell me the truth.
But if there were ongoing operations that were being conducted by his side, or the side that involves the raptors and the military that he reports to, he would obviously not be revealing things that could endanger their operations, and he wanted me to know that.
dan friesen
You better know that.
Mark Richards isn't going to give up some sort of information that jeopardizes the precious raptor forces?
How dare you assume?
I'm going to lie to you if it jeopardizes the raptors.
jordan holmes
Think about what The Intercept did to Reality Winner, huh?
dan friesen
Exactly.
jordan holmes
Come on!
We can't be doing that to the raptors?
dan friesen
Raptor or not, Reality Winner did not deserve that kind of treatment.
And Mark Richards would agree with me on that.
jordan holmes
I'm positive.
What sentence?
What is the sentence that could do it?
What do you mean?
If the sentence you say to Carrie Cassidy is, I will never lie to you.
First off, that should be disqualifying.
But continue.
We're going to continue with the sentence.
The sentence is, I will never lie to you.
But I will not divulge information regarding the sensitive raptor operations that are ongoing.
dan friesen
I generally find that people who make unnecessary, just sort of out-of-nowhere blanket statements about things they won't do, usually are overcompensating.
A little bit.
It usually feels like they're talking to themselves.
jordan holmes
Right!
A little bit.
dan friesen
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
I don't know.
That's just something I've felt over the course of my life.
I don't know.
Maybe Mark Richards is trying to tease her.
Like, I am lying to you.
That's what I feel.
That's 100% what I feel.
jordan holmes
He's trying to thin that knife's edge where it's like, I could lie to her on a lazier level and it would never bother me.
But there's no excitement there.
dan friesen
No.
jordan holmes
There's nothing there.
dan friesen
It's the thrill of the hunt.
jordan holmes
I need to be found out.
I'm like a serial killer.
Part of my whole thing is I want...
To be caught.
dan friesen
Why kill a rabbit that can't hurt you when you could kill a fucking tiger?
Right?
jordan holmes
I guess.
dan friesen
It's the excitement of the danger.
I might lose this one.
jordan holmes
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
dan friesen
He's going...
Like Icarus, he's flying too close to the sun.
He's like, I've never fucking lied to you.
jordan holmes
Right, right, right.
unidentified
Yeah.
jordan holmes
I want to see...
There's a new documentary out about this guy who free climbs.
unidentified
I don't want to see that.
dan friesen
I don't want to see that shit at all.
jordan holmes
That's the end of the synopsis.
dan friesen
That makes me so uncomfortable.
I can't handle that footage.
jordan holmes
The whole documentary is everybody on the...
He's free climbing this incredibly...
Up like a building?
No, no, no, no.
Up like this rock that's essentially unclimbable.
Even worse.
It's crazy.
No safety harnesses at all.
dan friesen
Does he have a GoPro on?
jordan holmes
The biggest thing about the movie, though, is the camera crew being like, is it okay for us to film a guy and he might fall and die?
Is that okay?
dan friesen
I think it's okay.
He would have done it anyway.
jordan holmes
We're kind of encouraging him, though, by doing this.
Do we share any fault here?
dan friesen
Does he have a GoPro on?
Because that's going to be whether or not I see this movie.
unidentified
I don't know.
jordan holmes
It's probably super intense, though.
I bet you're going to be on the edge of your seat, Dan.
dan friesen
I've seen those videos that people post of them climbing up buildings and stuff like that, jumping from ledges hundreds of feet in the air, hundreds of floors in the air, and GoPro footage.
I feel it in my teeth.
It makes me so fucking uncomfortable.
jordan holmes
Yeah, your mirror neurons fire in a way that you can't comprehend.
dan friesen
So if it's a documentary that triggers that...
Pass.
jordan holmes
Okay.
dan friesen
I pass on that.
But then again, I liked Man on Wire.
That was good.
But that also wasn't GoPro footage.
unidentified
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
jordan holmes
I will tell you this right now.
You shouldn't see this movie.
You shouldn't see this movie.
From the slightest bit I've seen and read about it, it's like, hey, have you ever had your balls drop way later in life?
dan friesen
Yeah.
jordan holmes
That's what it feels like.
dan friesen
I'll let you be excited about that documentary, and I will continue to be excited about the fact that there's a Luigi's Mansion coming out on the Switch sometime next year.
jordan holmes
I wasn't a big fan of the original.
dan friesen
So good.
jordan holmes
It was on Super Nintendo, right?
dan friesen
Nope, GameCube.
unidentified
Oh.
dan friesen
It was the launch title on the GameCube.
jordan holmes
I just don't like ghosts.
dan friesen
Oh, I love that Luigi's Mansion so much.
unidentified
Wasn't he dead?
dan friesen
It's such a different functionality.
No.
jordan holmes
Mario is dead.
dan friesen
Oh, Mario got kidnapped by King Boo and put into a painting.
jordan holmes
Oh, that sounds right.
dan friesen
And then Luigi had to go around this house and find a bunch of money.
jordan holmes
That makes more sense than what Mark Richards is saying!
dan friesen
I love Luigi's Mansion.
I will not apologize for it.
Anyway, in this next clip.
jordan holmes
Yes.
dan friesen
We find one of the first instances of Mark having something he can't talk about that Carrie brings up.
And then Carrie spins a little bit of a yarn about it.
And guess what?
This is one of those things that I can actually tell you the truth about on the other end of this.
kerry cassidy
We talked about, then, the sun, and he said this was an area he could not talk to me about.
Or couldn't say much about.
jordan holmes
It's too bright!
kerry cassidy
We did talk about the New Mexico Observatory that has been closed.
I don't even know where it is!
That story is very well known at this point.
A lot of misleading stuff in the mainstream media and also in the alternative.
A lot of people not getting the real story behind it.
I have had some very excellent source material on this.
Coming from a secret witness who, you could say, infiltrated that sort of the back channel chatter going on at the observatories.
There were seven others around the world that were also closed down.
So the whole FBI raid does not hold water.
The FBI were simply the sort of dog and pony show that you were supposed to be misled by.
jordan holmes
Sounds right.
kerry cassidy
What the information I got was from this sort of secret source.
jordan holmes
Was that before or after they killed Fred Hampton?
kerry cassidy
Which I did disclose to Mark.
So we're kind of having this trading of information is more to the point of what really goes on when I talk to Mark.
But at any rate, what happened was with the Solar Observatory in New Mexico and the other observatories, they were attempting to use a kind of superluminal...
Stop talking about the sun!
Technology, which is called possibly based on quantum mechanics.
jordan holmes
So, possibly based on quantum?
Come on, man.
If you're going to do any futuristic technology...
You've got to jump to quantum computers.
That's the vanguard of existence right now.
You can't say possibly based on quantum mechanics.
Everything!
If you're going to go sci-fi now, you've got to jump to quantum computing.
dan friesen
Well, but you also need to have an explanation of what the fuck you mean.
And she doesn't have an explanation.
That's where her explanation of this ends.
jordan holmes
Yeah.
dan friesen
Possibly.
jordan holmes
Could be quantum mechanics!
dan friesen
And she started the sentence by saying there's this technology.
That was being used that's called...
unidentified
It might use quantum mechanics.
jordan holmes
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
dan friesen
And that's bad.
jordan holmes
There's this theory about strings?
dan friesen
So...
jordan holmes
You ever hear of it?
dan friesen
So, I don't know if you know about this, Jordan, but this is something that Carrie has brought up in a couple of episodes that I've deemed not worth talking about.
There was the National Solar Observatory in New Mexico that got shut down mysteriously.
Do you know about this?
Have you heard about this?
jordan holmes
No.
dan friesen
It's interesting.
jordan holmes
Is it because they finally found the sun?
dan friesen
Yep.
No more need for this.
It's up there.
jordan holmes
We gotta stop looking for this shit.
It's been there the whole time.
unidentified
Hey guys, it's up.
dan friesen
So, Carrie's version of the story...
jordan holmes
Dan, the enemy's gate is down.
dan friesen
Carrie's version of the story is that the National Solar Observatory in Sunspot, New Mexico was closed down, along with many others, as she brought up there in that clip, seven others, due to something to do with an unnamed and unexplained mysterious technology that may or may not involve quantum mechanics.
As is pretty much always the case on Project Camelot, Carrie's reality is far more fun than the actual reality.
From the Washington Post, quote, What appears to have triggered the observatory's complete shutdown was a janitor who had allegedly been using the observatory's Wi-Fi to download and distribute child pornography, according to newly unsealed court documents.
jordan holmes
Wait, wait, wait.
unidentified
No.
dan friesen
Yep.
unidentified
What?
dan friesen
The janitor was distributing child pornography.
jordan holmes
That's the unnamed technology?
dan friesen
No, no, no, no, no.
That's the conspiracy theory that she's cooked up about the idea that this National Solar Observatory was closed.
It's the way she and the conspiracy community online explained the closure of this place.
But in reality, when all the dust settled and all the details were able to come out, it turned out a janitor was fucking distributing child pornography on their Wi-Fi.
jordan holmes
That was it?
dan friesen
Well, there's more to it.
jordan holmes
Okay.
That's fucked up, though.
Yeah, it's pretty fucked up.
unidentified
Like, on all...
jordan holmes
There are zero...
That's fucked up all across the board.
What?
dan friesen
Yep.
This is according to newly unsealed court documents.
In July, FBI agents investigating child sexual exploitation traced the location of several IP addresses linked to child pornography activity to the observatory.
jordan holmes
And to the sun.
dan friesen
According to a 39-page search warrant application.
During an interview with federal authorities on August 21st of this year, the facility's chief observer said that he had found on a number of occasions the same laptop hidden and running in various seldom-used offices around the observatory.
He described the contents of the laptop as, quote, not good, according to court documents.
jordan holmes
I mean, that...
Really sums it up.
dan friesen
Yeah.
jordan holmes
It's not good.
It's not good.
dan friesen
I looked on that laptop.
It is not good.
jordan holmes
If you're investigating child pornography and your diagnosis is not good, I can assume that in my world that's the single worst thing that could possibly happen.
dan friesen
Totally.
But I can understand why the chief observer of this solar observatory, the guy in charge of the place, might not want to...
Utter such words.
Or something like that.
I can understand someone using that sort of colloquialism when they know that they're talking to the authorities and the authorities are going to take care of it.
It wasn't good!
In that context, I get the euphemism.
jordan holmes
Peripheral vision only.
No good.
Please, no.
Take it away from my eyes forever, please.
dan friesen
So after this happened, when the chief observer went and spoke to the authorities, a federal agent was dispatched to investigate.
And he ended up taking that laptop, and it was found in one of the seldom-used offices that was mentioned by the chief observer.
Quote, The day after the laptop was seized, the janitor was allegedly seen by the chief observer leaving the office where it had been found.
The janitor asked the chief observer, who relayed the interaction to federal agents, if anyone had entered the office because the cleaning supplies he had left there were missing.
Later, the janitor claimed, quote, someone had been entering the observatory late at night in order to steal the wireless internet service and expressed concerns about lax security, court documents reported.
So, what you see here very clearly...
jordan holmes
That guy wasn't even fucking trying.
Come on, you can do better than I left my cleaning supplies in there.
dan friesen
Someone stole my mop.
jordan holmes
Yeah.
dan friesen
So you can clearly see from the documented chain of events, this janitor is realizing that someone's onto him, and he's trying to stealthily cover his tracks.
This anxiety soon turns into outright panic.
Again, from the Washington Post.
Quote, then the janitor's actions allegedly became even more bizarre, prompting the observatory staff to become worried about their own safety.
Aside from continuing to feverishly search the facility, the documents state that the janitor said, quote, it's only a matter of time before the facility got hit.
And then he, quote, believed there was a serial killer in the area and he was fearful that the killer might enter the facility and execute somebody.
Because of his erratic behavior and his references to the potential murder of someone at the facility, the management of the solar observatory decided to shut the facility down and evacuated their employees for their own safety.
The FBI did not make that decision, and in fact it might have worked against their interests as they were still engaged in an active investigation.
Everyone online misrepresented and misreported the event as the FBI shutting down the observatory.
And because it was an active investigation, no one in the know was willing to officially comment on it until much later.
Basically until mid-September when the story started to break.
When people were able to start talking about it.
jordan holmes
Right.
So the reality is...
The guy shut down the observatory because he was like...
dan friesen
Not just him, but the people in charge decided this janitor who we know was doing this not good stuff.
jordan holmes
Right, right, right.
I'm not saying the janitor shut it down.
They shut it down because this janitor is literally going like...
Hey, people are going to get murdered if we don't all fucking deal with this and the FBI...
dan friesen
You kind of think that that might be...
jordan holmes
Because he's going to murder people!
dan friesen
You don't know that for sure, but you can't take risks in that sort of situation when you know that someone has been using bootlegged Wi-Fi in order to distribute child pornography.
They start acting super erratically when it's clear that the jig is up.
And they start talking about the possibility that someone is going to be murdered.
Right.
It's going to break in after he has said, oh, someone has been breaking in at night and using the Wi-Fi.
Exactly.
unidentified
He's already used that to sort of get a like, hey, there wasn't me.
dan friesen
It was someone else who broke in.
Now he's using that someone's going to break in and kill people.
It is not.
Super crazy to think that that reads like a threat.
jordan holmes
Right, right, right, of course.
And the FBI, of course, as you pointed out, probably didn't want that to happen.
Because it would only, like, if they left it open...
dan friesen
Let him get another laptop in.
jordan holmes
Exactly, let him hang himself.
Exactly.
dan friesen
While we're observing.
jordan holmes
Exactly.
dan friesen
There's already probably enough information and evidence in order to fucking nail him.
But, at the same time, it would be much easier in a controlled environment to allow him to be under surveillance and commit the crime that he was already committing in order to make the case that much easier.
jordan holmes
Man, and this guy's in Arizona?
dan friesen
No, New Mexico.
jordan holmes
New Mexico.
Still, not far away from the border.
dan friesen
Sure.
jordan holmes
You should have just bailed.
dan friesen
You should have just run.
So, during that in-between time, from when...
jordan holmes
Not that I want that guy to get away.
I don't know what I'm doing.
I don't know what I'm doing.
Kill him!
dan friesen
You just can't stop yourself from expressing decent strategy.
unidentified
That's all.
dan friesen
Whether it's for villains or heroes.
Like, well, here's the way out of this one.
Run!
Run!
jordan holmes
I should be a consultant on any crime!
dan friesen
An amoral consultant.
Let's start a lobbying firm.
jordan holmes
That's what we should have done in the beginning!
dan friesen
Totally.
So, during this in-between time, from when the...
People in charge of the solar observatory shut it down for their employees' safety, and the time when the truth and the story started to come out, when the FBI had enough evidence at their disposal that they could talk about, and people were given the clearance.
to comment in interviews like the chief observer of the observatory.
During that in-between time, various highly credible, high-level anonymous sources and internet bullshitters started spinning their fanciful tales that the FBI shut down the place because they had spotted real aliens.
And this was a huge cover-up.
Even outlets like Zero Hedge got in on the act, reporting about the closure as if it was somehow suspicious.
Along the way, it was pointed out that a bunch of other webcams of observatories were offline around the same...
And that's fine.
The online conspiracies were primarily initially about the idea that they had found real aliens.
unidentified
Right.
dan friesen
And then secondarily, once it became clear that there were a bunch of other webcams that were down of other observatories, it was like they're trying to hide something from us that they found.
jordan holmes
Right, right, right.
dan friesen
It went away from being just about aliens, and then it became about the idea that they had found some...
jordan holmes
The world-destroying event that was...
unidentified
Yeah, yeah.
dan friesen
Exactly.
jordan holmes
That was promised by Cthulhu.
dan friesen
Right, right.
So whoever pointed this out, the observation of all these webcams being down, whoever pointed that out failed to also point out that on the front page of the Solar and Heliospheric Observatory website, where you find all of these webcams, there's an announcement prominently displayed.
Quote, we are updating the code infrastructure that provides access to SOS.
All right, come on.
Bullshit.
jordan holmes
Can't trust them.
Fat bears!
dan friesen
Temporarily and completely unrelated to the situation in New Mexico.
jordan holmes
Great.
dan friesen
So what you have there is the confluence of, again, it's all intentional misunderstandings of information you could find.
Immediately, in the aftermath of the New Mexico Solar Observatory being closed, you couldn't have found that information because it was being kept really tight.
unidentified
Right, right, right.
dan friesen
Because they were trying to get this fucking janitor.
jordan holmes
Right.
dan friesen
Because think about what you could roll up with that.
Who are you in business with?
unidentified
Yeah.
dan friesen
You know, there is a possibility.
unidentified
Oh, yeah, yeah.
jordan holmes
You can do the whole thing.
dan friesen
Yeah, absolutely.
I think it's a dangerous game to play because you don't know what kind of rogue variable this guy is.
But at the same time, I fucking get it.
If you're law enforcement, I get it.
And no one's going to be able to talk about that, so the stupid people of the world...
Carrie.
jordan holmes
Right.
dan friesen
Her ilk.
The people online start to try and find connections.
They find all these webcams down.
They don't know how to read, so they don't see the warning that says, we're updating the website.
It's going to take a bunch of weeks.
jordan holmes
Yeah, yeah.
dan friesen
Because it would take a lot of weeks.
jordan holmes
It would take a while!
dan friesen
If you go and find some of these goddamn webcam sites, they're Geocities pages.
Of course they should update this stuff.
jordan holmes
No, that needs to happen.
dan friesen
Yeah, absolutely.
They're a decade past these sites being, like, at all passable.
jordan holmes
Like the software we use for nuclear technology.
Sure.
dan friesen
So anyway, all this is a bunch of bullshit.
But that's so interesting to me that Carrie is so unwilling to...
Like, if her version of this is true, then there are so many people who have willingly perjured themselves for no reason.
Like, all of the people who swore affidavits about this janitor, all of the law enforcement people who wrote these warrants, the people who made these 39-page declarations, like, all of them...
jordan holmes
40,000 to 50,000 indictments are coming down, Dan.
You think those people aren't involved?
dan friesen
I guess if you believe that, then you can believe anything.
jordan holmes
Yeah, exactly.
dan friesen
But anyway, that's the reality of what happened in New Mexico.
jordan holmes
It's amazing to me how escalation actually works in this circumstance because when we're dealing with Alex Jones and we're talking about normal things, the conspiracy is always they're covering up pedophiles.
But in this case, when they were actually covering up...
Well, they weren't covering it up, but they were kind of covering it up.
It has to be alien.
dan friesen
But that's a lot of...
What you're sort of touching on, I think, accidentally, maybe you don't even realize, is that's a lot of what the QAnon stuff is about, too.
A lot of these sealed indictments are weird globalist pedophile networks.
Right.
unidentified
And blackmail operations using pedophilia and stuff like that.
dan friesen
I hate people.
Do we really need them?
We have a situation here where there is an outright dude.
Who is distributing child pornography in a government building.
jordan holmes
Yeah, that's bad.
dan friesen
And Carrie's like, nah, that's cover-up.
That's just the cover story.
unidentified
Right, right, right.
dan friesen
That's the cover story.
jordan holmes
When in reality, that's what's going on.
I get why it's super disappointing for them, though, because it's just a janitor, you know?
dan friesen
Totally.
jordan holmes
Like, if it was the head of the solar observatory, then they got that big fish, and they're gonna...
All science is based on pedophilia.
dan friesen
Well, it's because they love...
They love the sort of story that gets told from just overarching fiction.
jordan holmes
Yeah.
dan friesen
Whereas, actually, I mean, if you wanted to tell this story in one of those ways, it would be very easy to do.
This would be a great episode of Law& Order.
jordan holmes
It's fascinating.
dan friesen
Well, it's fascinating because of the misunderstandings.
jordan holmes
It'd be a great episode of Law& Order?
dan friesen
SVU.
jordan holmes
All right.
dan friesen
Get Odafin Tutuola in there.
You make this work.
All right.
But the thing that makes it compelling...
jordan holmes
Wait, so you're telling me that this observatory...
Looks at the sun?
dan friesen
Who looks at the sun?
There's all these kids out there that are looking at the sun.
jordan holmes
That's how they get them.
dan friesen
They're called solar gleaners.
So, I don't know.
That wasn't great.
But a way to make this story more compelling for Carrie if she wanted to actually look at the reality of it, there's a conspiracy you could go down.
I'm not interested in going down it because I don't think it's worth my time.
jordan holmes
No, of course not.
dan friesen
But the janitor was there.
Because his parents owned a contract with a bunch of places.
jordan holmes
What?
So there actually is a conspiracy theory story to be told here?
dan friesen
I mean, if you want to stretch for it really far, yeah.
jordan holmes
Yeah, then fucking throw it in there.
dan friesen
But that's one of the reasons that he felt so protected in his career there.
And maybe one of the reasons why he didn't do what you thought, which is run.
jordan holmes
Right, right, right.
dan friesen
Because he's working there under the auspices of this powerful contract that his parents' company has.
unidentified
Right, right, right.
dan friesen
With a bunch of other locations.
Probably a number of government contracts and stuff like that, whereas he is just working at this one facility.
So there's a decent chance that he felt entitled and felt bulletproof or something like that.
I think that would be far too much for us to assume.
But if Carrie wanted to weave something that falls in line with the QAnon beliefs, she should go that angle instead of it being a cover-up of something.
jordan holmes
For sure!
dan friesen
Because it's all a lot of bullshit.
jordan holmes
Underrated from our consulting firm.
This is going to be, like, the first rule.
Underrated option.
Bail and run.
You know?
Like, there's so many times if you had just really committed to bailing and running, you probably would have been fine.
dan friesen
I would say it won't be rule number one, but it will be in the handbook.
jordan holmes
It will be in the handbook.
dan friesen
In the handbook, the rule won't be just run.
It's like...
jordan holmes
I didn't say just run.
I said it's an underrated option.
dan friesen
It's not even that it's an underrated option.
It's that it is an option that is available to you for a while that will not be available eventually.
jordan holmes
There's a narrow window where you can.
dan friesen
There's an expiration date on running, and you need to be aware of that.
jordan holmes
There's always a countdown.
That's our consultancy firm.
There's always a countdown.
dan friesen
Well, the thing with running is there's a time when you can run like the wind.
unidentified
Oh, yeah.
dan friesen
Like you were born to run.
jordan holmes
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
dan friesen
Springsteen style.
unidentified
Right.
dan friesen
You can run freely.
But then there will be a time a little bit later, if you wait too long, you can run, but it's going to be a fight.
You might have to, like...
jordan holmes
Somebody's going to get cut in half and you're not going to go anywhere.
dan friesen
You might have to try and...
jordan holmes
You're going to stay in the same place.
dan friesen
You might have to launch your car over a barricade or something, but you might be able to run.
And then a little bit after that, there will be a time when running will not work.
You will get tackled on your way out of the house.
jordan holmes
Oh, yeah.
dan friesen
So, beware of that, villains.
I guess.
jordan holmes
All right.
dan friesen
Anyway.
jordan holmes
God, we've got to get rid of our morals.
That's what's been holding us back this whole time.
dan friesen
Oh, well, I'm okay with that.
So, in this next clip, I think, not positive, but I think I've done a pretty good job of explaining to you what happened in New Mexico.
And now Carrie has some, talking a little bit more about the sun.
kerry cassidy
Simon Parks also had information about this.
In addition, my source and Simon Parks' sources, and you can watch my interview with Simon Parks that happened a couple weeks ago in September if you want to get the story straight from him as to what his sources were saying and what my sources were saying and how that basically corroborates the data.
that there was also some ships close to the sun that were being seen by the solar observatories their cameras that are were affecting the frequency and or possibly, according to Mark, attempting to trigger what might be a solar event.
And this is also something that my source was alluding to.
dan friesen
Oh, no.
jordan holmes
A solar event, Dan.
dan friesen
Look at this.
Look at this corroboration that's going on here.
jordan holmes
Should I put it on my calendar?
What's a solar event?
dan friesen
Quinceañera.
jordan holmes
Quinceañera?
That's a holiday.
Best.
dan friesen
It's an event.
Usually celebrate it while the sun's out.
I don't know.
They're talking about spaceships trying to trigger a mass coronal event or something like that.
That's what they're talking about.
jordan holmes
Sure.
Right.
dan friesen
That's why they closed down the solar observatory.
jordan holmes
If you have a spaceship that can harness the power of the sun to create a coronal event, you probably have the technology to do stuff on a way more local level that wouldn't destroy a solar system.
dan friesen
Oh boy, that'd be more productive.
jordan holmes
I'm just saying, if you can do one...
Look, if you have the power to launch a nuclear weapon at somebody, you probably have the power to not launch a nuclear weapon, but still do enough damage in like a targeted way.
dan friesen
Right.
jordan holmes
Instead of like a destroy the earth way.
dan friesen
Yeah, yeah.
jordan holmes
You know what I'm saying?
dan friesen
Once you've reached that level of achievement, it's sort of implied, and maybe it's not 100% always this case, but it's implied that you have reached that.
Category of attack.
jordan holmes
Right, right, right.
dan friesen
There's other things.
You have other options at that stage.
That level of the pyramid, as it were.
jordan holmes
Holy shit.
We were totally going to make the sun explode and kill all of you, but we didn't even hear of the wheel.
When did you guys invent that shit?
You guys are crazy.
We're going to be buds.
dan friesen
Yeah.
So, look.
She has Simon Parks coming in, more or less confirming stuff that a secret source told her, and Mark Richards is kind of like...
I can't talk about the sun, but wink, wink, eyebrow waggle very intentionally.
Exactly.
So that's a lot of confirmation for her.
She's like, basically, this is absolutely true.
I've got these fucking liars all on the same page?
All right, cool.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
So something is going on with the sun.
You better believe it.
kerry cassidy
I think you can reach the conclusion there's definitely something going on with the sun.
That they don't want us to see.
One of the things Simon Park said about it was that they were trying to step down the frequency.
And he actually said the good guys were trying to do this because the sun affects the consciousness on planet Earth.
Okay.
And it is rising too quickly, apparently, by their estimation.
And I'm not sure how this could be the good guys thinking this.
jordan holmes
That doesn't make any sense.
It's rising too quickly.
kerry cassidy
Maybe it's a certain faction.
And so they are trying to interfere with that, at least temporarily, I'm told.
jordan holmes
The sun is rising.
Okay.
All right.
All right.
All right, guys.
All right.
Hold on.
dan friesen
Hey, Jordan.
Hold on.
Good luck.
jordan holmes
Hold on!
What?
What?
The sun is rising too frequently?
dan friesen
No, no, no.
The frequency is rising too quickly.
Because the frequency of the sun affects the consciousness of people on Earth, which I guess is some sort of dumb space poetic way of discussing seasonal affective disorder or something.
I'm not entirely sure.
jordan holmes
Do they mean the frequency of the light itself?
dan friesen
The frequency with which you get sun?
No, that's not what they're talking about.
unidentified
They're talking about some sort of electromagnetic band or something like that.
jordan holmes
Yeah, I mean, it's not like a neutron star frequency, but I mean, it requires a certain frequency.
To, like, support life.
It can't be, like, a Red Giant or something along those lines.
dan friesen
Fair.
jordan holmes
But, come on, guys.
Come on.
Come on, guys.
What are we talking about here?
What are we talking about?
dan friesen
You heard the clip.
jordan holmes
Dan, what are we talking about?
dan friesen
Walk yourself through it.
jordan holmes
What are we talking about?
dan friesen
I don't know.
jordan holmes
I don't know!
dan friesen
I don't know either.
jordan holmes
I'm trying to science this and it's not happening.
dan friesen
Well, no, it's just a bunch of nonsense.
And even Carrie is sort of manifesting that sort of reaction to it.
It's like, I don't know why the good guys would say that the vibration's going up too quickly.
We want to get to a higher vibration.
Maybe there's factions within the good team.
jordan holmes
Sure.
dan friesen
Just trying to make sense of all this.
unidentified
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
dan friesen
Anyway, I mean, it's all just remnants of trying to make sense of this bullshit story about the closing of the solar observatory.
jordan holmes
Right, right, right.
dan friesen
Along with these webcams being down, trying to connect the two of them and create a coherent narrative out of it, which is what Simon Parks is in the business of doing, which is what Mark Richards is thrilled to do for Carrie when she comes with these questions for him.
jordan holmes
It's fascinating that when Carrie is confused, there are only two ways to go.
Which is either, she's confused because it makes sense.
Or she's confused because...
I am way more confused than is humanly possible.
dan friesen
But a lot of the stuff that, like, when you're confused by hearing her stuff, a lot of that stuff could easily be ironed out if you just spent some time in these stupid internet communities.
So, Jordan, in this next clip, we get another little bit of a bullshit story that Carrie's been going on about for quite a while.
This is another one of her big sort of space narratives.
That unfortunately, actually, we can talk about.
jordan holmes
Okay.
kerry cassidy
There is a relationship to the recently lost satellites, and there were several satellites that we lost our contact with.
They weren't, you know, they weren't demolished.
They were simply, they went offline, so to speak.
And there seemed to be a sort of war with the satellites going on in which some satellites we gained control of.
And some we lost control of.
jordan holmes
Sure!
dan friesen
So that's related to...
jordan holmes
Because this is a giant intergalactic game of risk.
dan friesen
Yeah.
And to her, that's related to this shutting down of the solar observatory that's somehow involved with these satellites and stuff like that.
jordan holmes
I thought that was Eddie Page and his guilt.
dan friesen
Well, hold on.
jordan holmes
All right.
I'm sorry.
dan friesen
Carrie keeps pitching the story that we lost contact with multiple satellites and it's some sort of weird...
Chess game.
Risk game, as you say.
unidentified
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
dan friesen
But the reality paints a very different picture.
The first instance...
jordan holmes
It's just a pedophile somewhere.
dan friesen
Oh, no.
The first instance that is of interest is what we covered back on the Eddie Page episode, where this first came up.
There are strong indications that Russia's space program was engaging in space espionage, and that they were maneuvering their satellites into restricted areas to eavesdrop on other countries' satellites.
This is the piece of news that most closely matches up with the timeline of Eddie...
But, interestingly, there's been some satellite news this last year that's really interesting that they might be misrepresenting.
Firstly, in April 2018, India lost contact with one of their satellites after something went wrong with one of the engine firings meant to raise it to a higher orbit.
Most likely, this is a result of something mechanical going wrong, as it was the second satellite-related failure since 2017 for the Indian space program.
Which, by the way, is low-key an awesome space program.
Really?
Yeah.
In February 2017, they set the record for most satellites put into orbit from a single rocket with 104.
jordan holmes
No shit!
dan friesen
Yeah, that's 104.
jordan holmes
That's pretty fucking cool!
dan friesen
Yeah, set the world record, India!
jordan holmes
Now, I mean, on the other hand, space junk is...
An awful thing that's going to eventually come back to bite us in the ass.
So there's that, too.
dan friesen
They also won the Asian Space Race to Mars in 2014 for a ridiculously cheap $73 million.
jordan holmes
No shit!
dan friesen
Compared to NASA's $671 million that it took for them to get to Mars.
jordan holmes
Wow.
dan friesen
So India has a really great space program, but they have lost a couple satellites over the last few years.
That's reasonable, though.
jordan holmes
If you're tossing out 104 in one spacecraft, yeah, of course.
dan friesen
So second, here's the name of this.
The acronym is IMAGE.
But the name of the satellite is the Imager for a Magnetopause to Aurora Global Exploration Satellite.
unidentified
That happens to a lot of women around 60, 65. Sure, sure.
dan friesen
It's called IMAGE.
jordan holmes
They go to space.
dan friesen
It's called IMAGE for short.
jordan holmes
Uh-huh.
dan friesen
Image was launched in 2000 by NASA in order to study the planet's magnetic field and did just that quite well for five years before NASA completely lost it.
They had no idea where it went, and though they tried their best, they couldn't reestablish contact with this image satellite that they shot out.
Then...
In January 2018, an amateur astronomer named Scott Tilley was out looking at the sky, searching for other satellites.
What should he find?
But the transmission from Image, the satellite that had been missing for 13 years.
jordan holmes
Okay.
Now I assume it had gained sentience by this point.
And it became that dude's friend, and they started talking back and forth, and it was like...
I'm really lonely up here, man.
I used to talk to people.
dan friesen
That's Pixar's next movie.
jordan holmes
No, it's actually an episode of Cowboy Bebop.
Thank you very much.
dan friesen
So Scott reached out to NASA, and they got on the case, and they deduced that back in 2005, quote, an event tripped its solid-state power controller, which powers the transponder it uses to communicate with ground control.
Filled with a sense of hope that maybe they could salvage a win from the jaws of defeat, NASA scientists...
jordan holmes
And of course, find Major Tom's body.
dan friesen
Sure.
NASA scientists started trying to reconnect with Image to see if they could collect data that it would have been collecting.
Unfortunately, though they were able to get little pings back and forth, they weren't able to get it to actually respond to commands appropriately because the fuse was blown.
That solid-state power controller is what powers so much of the functionality of the spacecraft.
jordan holmes
It had been 13 years.
They'd grown apart.
Like, it's tough.
It's tough to reconnect after that length of time.
It's like a college buddy that you haven't seen in forever.
It's tough.
dan friesen
So, unfortunately, it ended up not working.
And at the end of August 2018, around the time that Carrie and Eddie Page are having this conversation, they're barely receiving a signal at all from this image satellite, and they announced that it's probably lost once again.
jordan holmes
Great.
dan friesen
So we have a situation here.
Where there's an actual satellite that was lost for 13 years that some guy was able to find, and then they reestablished slight contact with, but then went away.
And it's possible that that's the story that they're basing a lot of this on.
We lost contact with this satellite, not mentioning that we had lost contact with it for 12 to 13 years before that.
jordan holmes
Right, right, right.
dan friesen
The reason that it turned back on is actually super interesting, and that is that it had a programming in it that it was going to go through a five-year eclipse.
So it was just going to automatically shut off while it was inside that eclipse.
jordan holmes
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
dan friesen
So they had no idea how to predict whether or not it would turn back on or off because they had lost contact with it.
unidentified
Right.
dan friesen
But when it came out of that eclipse, it turned out it did turn itself back on.
So that's probably why Scott Tilley was able to rediscover it.
And nobody else was looking for it.
jordan holmes
That is so fucking fun.
dan friesen
It's amazing.
jordan holmes
That is so fun.
dan friesen
It's an amazing story.
jordan holmes
I love that.
That makes me feel so good.
dan friesen
It's another great mini documentary, like a 30 for 30 about this guy accidentally rediscovering a satellite that's been lost for over a decade.
jordan holmes
Also, I need far more explanation before I'm willing to accept that this guy just like...
Emailed NASA and was like, hey, you guys been looking for a satellite?
I found it off the back of my truck.
dan friesen
From what I understand is he started to get sort of transmissions or he was receiving things from the satellite that he didn't quite understand.
And so he reached out.
unidentified
You up?
dan friesen
Exactly.
So he reached out to people who he thought could help decode the transmissions that he was getting.
And by that point, the people who were working on it initially had already moved on to much other things.
jordan holmes
Right, right, right.
It was 13 years ago.
dan friesen
It's crazy.
It's a great story.
It really is an amazing human interest story.
jordan holmes
That's the sleepless in Seattle of satellites.
Also, Jordan...
Sleepless in satellite Seattle.
dan friesen
Jordan?
jordan holmes
Nope.
dan friesen
Here's the untold story.
It turns out that losing contacts with satellites is incredibly common.
jordan holmes
What?
Are you saying that space is complicated and weird and could happen at all kinds of different things?
dan friesen
This is discussed in the Slate article you can look up.
Quote, it's surprisingly easy to lose a satellite worth millions.
jordan holmes
That is a title.
That is a fucking title.
dan friesen
If you really look into it, every year there are stories about a bunch of satellites that just get lost or we lose contact with.
And not just we, other countries too.
Like I said, earlier in the year, India had that satellite the second of two within a year and a half that they had lost.
Russia lost contact with a couple of satellites earlier this year.
Suez satellites.
It just happens.
It's part of the difficulty of space.
jordan holmes
Yeah, I mean, I'm assuming that they don't want...
Nobody wants NASA to come out and announce every satellite that they've lost because then you're going to be like, well, they fucking lose satellites all the time.
dan friesen
But those articles will be in space or the Smithsonian or any of these publications.
jordan holmes
It'll be somewhere.
dan friesen
It'll be there.
You can find it and you can find explanations for what happened.
jordan holmes
Oh, second rocket misfired or X, Y, or Z. But if you want to go into that, the ultimate answer, if you're interviewing the head of NASA and it's like, how did you guys lose this million dollar satellite?
They're like, dude!
Space is fucking hard!
Are you shitting me?
You try and send up a goddamn satellite, asshole!
dan friesen
And that's why a space program is super expensive.
Because so much of the sunk costs of that.
You just know, oh, sometimes this is...
jordan holmes
Yeah, the math we do is on a level that you could never, ever, ever comprehend, and the math we need to do is on a level higher than we can comprehend, and we can comprehend some fucking math, dude!
dan friesen
Yeah, there's ultimate variables that are completely uncontrollable.
So, anyway, that is what happened with satellites this year.
I can find no evidence of the stuff that they're talking about, but that doesn't matter.
jordan holmes
Oh, that's right.
I forgot.
Every time we do one of these episodes, I inevitably wind up forgetting what we were talking about.
dan friesen
Turns out, something is rotten in Space Denmark.
jordan holmes
There you go!
unidentified
As we find out in this next clip.
kerry cassidy
We did have the help of the Pleiadians who helped give us the code to take the satellites back, the ones we were able to take control of.
And that is something that coincides with Yeti.
Page information, as well as Simon Park's information.
So we have three confirming that information at this time.
Mark does not see a return of Nibiru.
He does not see a...
An upcoming invasion of Draco in the near future.
jordan holmes
Well, that's nice.
kerry cassidy
Contrary to the predictions of Eddie Page.
jordan holmes
Suck it, Eddie Page, you fucking piece of shit!
Mark Richards confirms that you're a fucking asshole, you lying piece of shit!
You racist mother- I'm not gonna say racist, because I'm kind of racist, too.
But fuck off, Eddie!
Uh-oh.
Ouch.
unidentified
Uh-oh.
jordan holmes
Cat fight.
Liar fight.
dan friesen
Again, all is not well in Denmark.
I'm going to figure out that quote one of these days.
Don't worry about it.
But it turns out trouble in paradise.
Eddie Page.
jordan holmes
Turns out Denmark is paradise.
dan friesen
Mark Richards.
unidentified
Uh-huh.
dan friesen
Do not see eye to eye.
jordan holmes
Not surprising.
dan friesen
I think Mark Richards might.
Be a little threatened.
jordan holmes
Yeah, right?
dan friesen
Eddie Page is rising to prominence.
No, there's no Draco invasion that's going to be coming.
jordan holmes
Nah, this fucking guy.
dan friesen
All that stuff he's saying, nah, I don't know about that.
jordan holmes
Can't trust the goddamn word out of this racist mouth.
dan friesen
But you know what?
I think that maybe...
jordan holmes
Now look, I say the N-word all the time, but this guy?
Where did that voice come from?
dan friesen
You're acting like he's from Chicago.
jordan holmes
What voice is that?
dan friesen
You're acting like he's from the suburbs.
jordan holmes
Where does that voice come from?
dan friesen
South suburbs of Chicago.
Look.
Mark Richards is probably a little bit worried about his place at the throne of Project Camelot whistleblowers.
But that's not the only thing he has to worry about.
jordan holmes
What's that?
dan friesen
He's got trouble on all sides.
kerry cassidy
He does say we're in a very bad position at this time for a number of reasons.
jordan holmes
Surprising!
kerry cassidy
He has been messed with a great deal and that his...
I don't know if it's his daughter or his granddaughter.
They got cut in half!
But someone in his family was recently diagnosed with a brain tumor, so his family's having a very hard time right now.
dan friesen
I mean, that sucks, but don't try and pretend that's someone messing with him.
She's trying to present it as like someone gave this person a brain tumor.
That's awful.
jordan holmes
I mean, I assume that Mark himself presented that as the angle there, right?
Maybe.
dan friesen
I'd be willing to bet that he just brought it up and Carrie editorialized.
jordan holmes
You think he could have just been like, hey, you know what, let's cut out this whole bullshit for just a second and I want to make a real human connection with you.
My family is experiencing this.
My daughter has a brain tumor.
dan friesen
You can even take a step back from this.
Because Carrie mentions that she went to the prison with Joanne, so it's possible that Joanne gave her that information.
jordan holmes
Oh, no!
dan friesen
We don't even know where the information necessarily comes from, but we do know that Carrie has called, she has said that her Bell's palsy was a scalar attack.
jordan holmes
Right, right, right, right.
dan friesen
So we know that that's something that's within her worldview.
unidentified
Right.
dan friesen
So it's possible that she just got this information and she has created that narrative.
unidentified
Right, right.
dan friesen
It's not necessary that Mark is saying, they're trying to attack me by giving my daughter or granddaughter a brain tumor.
jordan holmes
This is the exact first moment that I have ever thought that Mark Richards has an actual family.
dan friesen
Yeah, I didn't realize that either.
jordan holmes
Right?
dan friesen
I didn't realize that he had reproduced.
jordan holmes
Yeah, that seems odd.
dan friesen
But, I mean, I guess he was out of prison.
jordan holmes
Yeah!
dan friesen
He was, like, 20-something when he went to prison.
jordan holmes
Could have happened, yeah.
dan friesen
Yeah, he could have had a kid.
jordan holmes
Yeah, yeah.
dan friesen
Pretty easily.
jordan holmes
Isn't that weird?
dan friesen
Could have had also conjugal visits.
He could have had a kid while he's in prison.
jordan holmes
I don't know.
Are those even real?
unidentified
I never know.
dan friesen
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
jordan holmes
Are they?
dan friesen
Yeah.
unidentified
Really?
dan friesen
Oh, yeah.
Actually, when I was looking up the rules for visitation and stuff like that, there's like...
jordan holmes
Fuck all you want!
dan friesen
No, no, no.
jordan holmes
Oh, no.
That wasn't on there?
dan friesen
No, but for people who are married and for people who have families, it's even possible for you to have a family come for 48 hours and stay with you to have a holiday.
For various holidays, you can have...
I don't know if that's true for all prisons, but it's definitely true for Mark's prison.
But they do have a program where if you get approval and everything, people can come and stay with you, obviously not in your cell, in a separate place for 48 hours for you to celebrate a holiday with them.
jordan holmes
That's really good.
That makes it so much wrong.
So much wrong.
But I like that.
dan friesen
I don't know.
A guy got cut in half that you can celebrate Christmas.
jordan holmes
I don't know.
When you start talking about the prison system, my first thought is abolish it.
And then my next thought is...
I have got nothing.
I don't know.
How do you figure it out?
Don't ask me.
dan friesen
Yeah, me too.
jordan holmes
I don't know.
dan friesen
Me too.
My first thought is, let's fucking stop this.
jordan holmes
Yeah.
dan friesen
And then every thought after that is confusion.
jordan holmes
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Well, if we don't do that, then what do we do?
And if we do that, then what else do we do?
dan friesen
If A, then B games get off track so fast.
unidentified
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
jordan holmes
In terms of prison.
There's no, like, solve.
unidentified
What is the definition of humane treatment?
jordan holmes
Exactly.
Isn't that right?
dan friesen
Because it's so different for every different person.
Like, what is valuable and what means something to you might not be the same as it means to me.
jordan holmes
Right.
dan friesen
So if we create a prison system where you're trying to create a humane environment for everybody, what would be considered humane to you wouldn't probably be the same as to me.
We have various predilections and quirks that are things that are super important to you.
Like, for me, I think it would be awful to be in prison and not be able to take a bath.
jordan holmes
Yeah, now that would kill you.
dan friesen
If I was in prison for 30 years or something like that...
jordan holmes
Yeah.
dan friesen
If I had to be alone for 30 years just with books and something like that, I wouldn't be happy about it.
I obviously would probably be there if I did something to deserve it.
But I think it would be inhumane if you made me shower that whole time.
I love a bath.
jordan holmes
You love a bath!
dan friesen
It would be incredibly difficult.
But for you, you probably wouldn't need a bath.
That wouldn't even pop up in your mind.
jordan holmes
I mean, I would think about a bath from time to time, but it wouldn't be a need.
dan friesen
It wouldn't be something that was like, fuck.
jordan holmes
And then you have to ask yourself the question of, like, to what extent is prison isolation versus punishment?
You know?
Like, you have...
dan friesen
And where does that intersect?
jordan holmes
Exactly.
We've talked about Anders Breivik.
How is it that Anders Breivik has an infinitely better living situation than a guy who was caught his third time for weed possession, you know?
dan friesen
I have bad news also about Anders Breivik.
jordan holmes
Oh, has he not been murdered 300 times?
Has anybody cut him in half?
dan friesen
In my looking more into Glenn Beck...
No!
jordan holmes
No!
dan friesen
In the aftermath of the attack that Anders Breivik carried out...
jordan holmes
No, no!
I don't want to hear this information.
dan friesen
He referred to the victims of his attack at that camp as being like Hitler Youth because it was a political youth camp.
It was very, very disgraceful.
jordan holmes
Great.
dan friesen
So, hey, there's an intersection with Alex.
jordan holmes
All right.
All right.
dan friesen
Anyway, let's get back on track.
jordan holmes
Kill him.
dan friesen
Let's get back on track.
jordan holmes
I'm sorry.
I'm sorry.
dan friesen
Kill him.
Mark.
He appears to be unimpressed with Eddie Page.
jordan holmes
Eddie Page is a piece of shit.
dan friesen
Not a piece of shit, but he's like, this whole warning about the draconian invasion, that's nonsense.
jordan holmes
Right, right, right.
I don't judge him for his racism, I'm on that tip too, but come on, he can't be pulling this shit.
dan friesen
So he's unimpressed with that.
In this next clip, Carrie brings up another one of her newer sources, I guess, and we'll see what Mark thinks about him.
kerry cassidy
I did talk to Mark briefly about the scientific paper that Paul Price wrote on warp drives.
dan friesen
By the way, that's the janitor who invented a warp drive.
jordan holmes
He didn't.
kerry cassidy
However, he's going to have to mail me more information because we didn't have time to go into it in detail.
jordan holmes
Why can't he mail you more information?
kerry cassidy
Mark did respond saying that it did not...
Contain enough specific equations and the formula was too general.
He did say he would send me a better analysis via mail.
dan friesen
Oh, shit.
jordan holmes
Ouch.
dan friesen
Mark Richard's fired.
jordan holmes
Mark Richard's coming out hot.
dan friesen
Shots fired on this janitor who's created a warp drive.
Mark Richard's like, this is too general.
There's not enough equations here.
unidentified
By the way, that's not a valid criticism.
dan friesen
Cool.
jordan holmes
I mean, it's probably a valid enough criticism in the world we're living in.
dan friesen
Totally.
jordan holmes
You didn't think this through as a valid criticism to everything that any of them have ever said.
dan friesen
But I like this trend that we're seeing, that is, Carrie's met some new weirdos, and Mark is not into it.
jordan holmes
No, no, no.
I enjoy it.
dan friesen
But he also appears to be...
I mean, we can only hear this from Carrie's retelling of it.
jordan holmes
Real Liars of Vacabelle Prison.
That's our new Bravo show.
dan friesen
Oh, God, that'd be great.
unidentified
Oh, that would be fun.
dan friesen
He seems to be coming to it not from a place of...
of like, fuck these guys, but just a calm, confident dismissal of them.
unidentified
Yeah, yeah.
dan friesen
Like, almost like a, just, it's alpha behavior in the, like, pickup artist world.
jordan holmes
Carrie, Carrie, Carrie, excuse me, I made you.
unidentified
Right.
jordan holmes
Suck it to all your...
Oh, you're going to get a lot of stepdads?
You're going to get a lot of stepdads?
They ain't your real dad, baby.
dan friesen
I could tell you about the warp drive.
This Paul didn't invent that shit.
He's a fucking janitor.
Not enough equations.
Eddie Page thinks that the Dracos are going to invade?
Fuck that noise.
He's going to have more information about why that's bullshit here in a little bit, but before then, Carrie's got to editorialize about her trip to the prison.
jordan holmes
Okay, here we go.
dan friesen
Where she has met...
jordan holmes
She's got feelings.
dan friesen
She met his roommate, or I guess cellmate.
jordan holmes
I like the way you said that.
His roommate.
She met his dorm partner.
dan friesen
Right.
Her...
Her analysis of this is so confounding to me.
jordan holmes
Okay.
kerry cassidy
He does have a cellmate at this time who is a relatively young man who has a scientific background, apparently, and he is also very tall.
Because I saw him in person, which I found very interesting.
dan friesen
Why is that interesting?
unidentified
Whoa!
jordan holmes
What?
dan friesen
Why is that interesting?
unidentified
That he's tall?
jordan holmes
What?
dan friesen
That he's tall?
jordan holmes
Wait, wait, wait, wait.
Are you just attracted to tall dudes?
Is that what's going on here?
dan friesen
I'm not sure.
jordan holmes
I don't want to reduce her to somebody with physical assertions.
But at the same time, being tall is not interesting.
Unless you think he's an alien because he's tall.
dan friesen
No, but here's the thing that I think she was trying to express, but did so super poorly.
She introduces the idea that he has a scientific background, then says he's tall, and then she says...
I found that very interesting.
That, based on English pronoun reference, is referring to the fact that he's tall.
jordan holmes
Yeah.
dan friesen
Not the fact that the other thing that you mentioned earlier, that he has a scientific background.
jordan holmes
Right.
Or you could combine the two and then say...
dan friesen
Those things I find very interesting.
jordan holmes
All that I find interesting.
Oh, okay.
So he has a science background and he's tall?
Humans don't do that?
dan friesen
No, no, no.
In prison, his roommate happens to have a scientific background.
I find that very interesting.
Also, he's tall.
That would be one way of expressing it.
Or being like, he has a roommate in prison who has a scientific background.
He's tall.
Such a person...
Being his bunkmate is interesting to me.
jordan holmes
He has a tall roommate who has a scientific background.
I find that interesting.
dan friesen
There's a hundred ways to express this.
He chose the one wrong way that makes it sound like the only thing he's interested in.
jordan holmes
I want to fuck the tall guy!
dan friesen
Or, I'm interested, I didn't think he liked tall guys.
Or something like that.
jordan holmes
Mark Richards has expressed a preference to me in the past.
No tall guys in his room, and I find this very interesting.
dan friesen
He has the sexual version of a Napoleon complex.
He has a Napoleon fetish.
He only goes for the squat.
I don't know.
I don't know.
The way she's expressing it is very, very confusing.
jordan holmes
It's very wrong.
However she's doing it, unless she's doing it the way that she's saying she's doing it, it's wrong.
dan friesen
She doesn't ever clarify at all.
She just mentions that the roommate is going to have to look at these warp drive papers.
All right.
unidentified
All right.
jordan holmes
You got to do it.
dan friesen
So in this next clip, we get one of those rare glimpses.
jordan holmes
He's going to have to tape them up to a higher level, though, on the wall.
dan friesen
Probably.
jordan holmes
That's why it's interesting that he's tall.
dan friesen
Super tall.
jordan holmes
Yeah.
Mark can't even reach the level that he needs to put those at eye level.
dan friesen
Here's what we're not talking about.
unidentified
He's eight foot four.
jordan holmes
Now that I would find very interesting!
dan friesen
He's one of the giants of the Old Testament.
jordan holmes
He has a roommate who has a scientific background.
And he is also the tallest human being ever recorded, which I find very interesting.
I agree.
I agree.
dan friesen
Need to be more specific.
So, this next clip, Jordan, is one of those rare instances in these, like, a couple of clips we've had have been one of the very rare instances of Carrie bringing up something about her space bullshit that I can actually look into and tell you, like, here's what she's talking about, X, Y, and Z. Right.
Here's one of the other branch of the rare bullshit in these Mark Richards interviews that she does, where something is said that is clearly code.
That relates to our real world in a way that, like, they're just talking about the real world but using aliens.
Mic down for this.
See if you can cut through the code.
I think you can, but I just don't want you to scream immediately.
kerry cassidy
Mark also talked about the Greys, how they sort of report to the highest bidder, and that there is a selling out.
Many of the journalists out there right now are...
Alien-human hybrids and have been influenced by the Greys, and so they are obeying the deep state and the dark side because they are basically kind of soulless and or have a lack of emotional feeling so they don't connect with humanity.
dan friesen
Boy, you are just a slight push away from the Juden press.
You're real close.
To this...
I mean, what are we doing here?
What are we doing here?
All the press are gray aliens?
That's what we're doing?
jordan holmes
Oh, man.
We don't get a lot of news in here, but I'll tell you right now, I love it when Saudi Arabia murders a journalist.
dan friesen
I would love to hear his take on that.
Unfortunately, she went before that.
This is all reporting from before that.
From when?
I think she went like five days ago.
jordan holmes
Yeah, no, he's been dead for over a week.
dan friesen
Yeah, I know, but the reports were initially that he was missing.
jordan holmes
No, okay, no, okay.
I suppose that the reports were initially that he was missing.
dan friesen
Oh, also Carrie doesn't care about the real world.
jordan holmes
But if you recall, if you recall on our first episode, the day that he went missing, I was like, the Saudi Arabians murdered this guy.
It's not a hard conclusion to jump to.
Because they're all about murdering people that they don't like.
dan friesen
Carrie doesn't care about the real world.
jordan holmes
Fair.
Okay, so just all journalists are doing all that.
dan friesen
Gray aliens, probably soulless.
They've been...
jordan holmes
Why?
Why?
dan friesen
I mean, that's just an old...
jordan holmes
What is he doing, though?
dan friesen
That's an old trope.
jordan holmes
Yeah, but it's not like he has an intimate relationship with the breaking news services anymore.
dan friesen
Do you think he has a close relationship with neo-Nazis in prison?
jordan holmes
Oh, that's a good point.
dan friesen
Yeah.
jordan holmes
You have brought up a very good point, Dan.
One that I cannot ignore.
dan friesen
Do you think that neo-Nazis in prison don't think that the Jews run the media?
jordan holmes
Dan, if there's one thing I know about neo-Nazis, the free press, top of the list!
dan friesen
I've been very, like...
jordan holmes
So long as it's white and no other voices are allowed to be around.
dan friesen
Like, the last times that we've talked about Mark Richards, I've been very resistant to, like, talk about the idea that possibly he's fallen in with...
Neo-Nazi gangs and stuff like that.
But then when I was looking into his prison and found that guy dissected organs missing story, I was like, yeah, there's fucking murder gangs in that prison.
jordan holmes
Oh yeah, for sure.
dan friesen
There's a very decent chance if he's been there for 30 years or in that prison and other institutions, he has become acclimated and institutionalized in a way that he probably does run with a gang.
jordan holmes
Yeah.
dan friesen
Like, we like to imagine this scenario where it's like, he's just some sort of weird, dumb, crazy monk that lives in prison, and Carrie comes and visits him, and he says stupid shit.
jordan holmes
I never viewed him as a monk, but...
dan friesen
I meant that on a very generous way.
Like, he just sits around and, like, comes up with his narrative bullshit.
jordan holmes
Ridiculous, yeah, yeah, yeah.
dan friesen
He prepares that for whenever Carrie or someone else comes, and he can tell them about it.
unidentified
Yeah.
dan friesen
And the reality is, on a day-to-day, he probably is incorporated with some...
Fucking bad dudes.
jordan holmes
We've all seen CNN.
dan friesen
So when we hear Kerry coming in and talking to him about the media, and he's expressing, it's all gray aliens.
They've all sold out.
They don't even have souls.
They've lost touch with humanity.
It's really tough to hear that and not think about other historical parallels.
jordan holmes
It's like if you, and I'm not going to say that I know every journalist who's a gray alien, but if you gave me like a roster in picture format of, let's call it, journalists from one company, right, and have all their pictures in kind of a situation, I would be able to draw bullseyes.
Over certain members of those organizations.
dan friesen
Or like that one guy in the house who put Stars of David on all their pictures.
jordan holmes
Yeah, and there might be like a single unifying thing that they might have, and it's because Jews are in the media.
But that's only because the Jews are gray aliens.
Not all Jews are gray aliens, but all Jews are bad.
Wait, wait, did I say the quiet part loud?
dan friesen
I mean, that's like, to me, when I hear that clip, that is so clearly just the David Icke reptilian equal.
Yeah.
Kind of thing.
Like, the gray aliens that he's talking about, maybe not every single time he brings up gray aliens, that, in that clip, is very clearly, deeply entrenched with anti-Semitism.
jordan holmes
Yeah.
dan friesen
Now, I don't know if that's Mark's whole bag, but that's what he's saying.
Anyway, in this next clip, we find out why he does not believe Eddie Page's narrative that there's a Draco invasion coming.
jordan holmes
Yeah.
kerry cassidy
He said the war on and off planet Earth is intensifying.
Our allies recently destroyed a moon of Draco.
jordan holmes
Of course.
kerry cassidy
And that several races right now are giving the Draco a very hard time in the Orion sector of the galaxies.
dan friesen
If that were true, that would be so fucking visible.
So Beetlejuice is one of the biggest stars in the Orion belt, in the galaxy of Orion.
jordan holmes
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
dan friesen
That did go supernova and blow up?
unidentified
Yeah.
dan friesen
It really wouldn't affect us that much.
jordan holmes
No.
dan friesen
It's far away enough that it wouldn't affect us.
Because I was thinking, like, okay, they blow up this moon, we would fucking feel the effects.
jordan holmes
Oh, good God, of course not.
dan friesen
That's not necessarily the case.
unidentified
What?
dan friesen
Especially in the Orion constellation.
You know, you never know.
jordan holmes
Dan, how many light years away is it?
dan friesen
A bunch.
jordan holmes
Yeah, we wouldn't even be able to see it.
If they were giving them a hard time as we speak, we would not know for another 15 to 20 years.
Probably, no, like way longer than that.
You and I would be dead.
So all of this implies that they have faster than light communication, first off.
dan friesen
Oh, definitely.
jordan holmes
Yeah, yeah.
How?
dan friesen
How, Dan?
How?
jordan holmes
How, Dan?
Quantum entanglement?
dan friesen
That's taken as red.
jordan holmes
Yeah, you're right.
dan friesen
You're supposed to assume that.
jordan holmes
The warp drives and all of that stuff.
dan friesen
Yeah, that's a good point.
jordan holmes
But again, no, we would have no concept of this until after you and I were long dead.
dan friesen
Yeah, so Orion is 243 to 1,360 light years away.
jordan holmes
Then it is an immediate issue for us that will...
Look, they're giving me a lot of trouble right now, and we're going to experience the after effects of that.
In a thousand years or so.
dan friesen
I'm going to have to take this one on the chin.
You're totally right.
You're totally right.
What I didn't consider about space is the light year factor.
jordan holmes
We would observe it.
12 parsecs.
dan friesen
We would absolutely observe it, but you're right.
It would take that long for it to become visible.
jordan holmes
Yeah, absolutely.
dan friesen
Fine.
They maybe blew up that moon.
I gotta...
jordan holmes
You gotta take this one on the chin.
dan friesen
Of all the things that I decided to take a stand on...
This is one where I'm going to eat crow.
I'm going to eat crow on this.
We cannot confirm nor deny that the raptors have blown up one of the Draco moons in Orion.
We'll know in a couple hundred years.
jordan holmes
What concerns me is that he knows.
dan friesen
Empirical evidence.
Well, because he can remote view everything.
jordan holmes
Even then, how do you remote view?
dan friesen
Doesn't involve light.
Astral travel.
Who cares?
jordan holmes
All right.
dan friesen
Who cares?
jordan holmes
I'm going to need more observational facts.
dan friesen
More empirical evidence?
jordan holmes
Yeah, I'm going to need a little bit more on that one.
dan friesen
Yeah, bad news.
jordan holmes
Oh.
dan friesen
So, in this next clip, again, we have that last clip where, all right, fine, I'll give it to you.
But now, in this next clip, we get back to exactly the same thing of, like, the...
Before, he was talking about journalists being gray aliens.
We can see like, uh-oh, uh-oh, kind of hear what you're talking about.
This next clip, there's another weird thing where he's talking about the real world through aliens.
kerry cassidy
He said there's an interesting bit of information about the aliens who have been...
More or less given free reign in South America and Africa, looking now to expand their territories to other parts and especially North America as they have eaten so many humans in those areas that they now want to expand their hunting grounds, as it's called.
jordan holmes
All right.
All right.
Come on.
Come on.
Hide it a little bit better than that.
unidentified
Yeah.
jordan holmes
Hide it a little bit better than that.
dan friesen
It's hard not to hear the...
jordan holmes
Don't, like, pick specific regions of...
All right.
dan friesen
It's hard not to hear the specific right-wing talking points about, like, immigrant invasions and stuff like that when you hear these aliens have been allowed to hunt freely and kill and eat all humans down there.
jordan holmes
Yeah.
dan friesen
And now they want in on white territory.
unidentified
Yeah.
dan friesen
It's really hard not to hear the exact...
That same narratives that you hear out of Alex, Tommy Robinson, out of all of the reactionary right.
It's right there.
jordan holmes
Just give me, let's say, two examples.
One from South Africa and one from South America, where the right wing has very public talking points about how white people are under siege.
Just give me two examples.
I don't even need a lot, Dan.
I'm sure there's no way you could find any examples of a direct one-to-one comparison between right-wing talking points and these aliens that he is describing here, Dan.
This is a complete coincidence!
dan friesen
If it's a coincidence, it's crazy.
jordan holmes
It's a crazy coincidence, right?
dan friesen
Like, if it's a coincidence that he believes all of the alien narratives that he's putting forth, and apropos of nothing, it's just like, oh, this seems to match up a whole bunch with a lot of these right-wing talking points.
jordan holmes
Just happens to.
dan friesen
That would be crazy.
jordan holmes
It would be crazy.
dan friesen
What's less crazy is the idea that he is kind of a pretty right-wing dude who's in prison, also a little bit crazy, and seems to express himself through a little bit of flowery narrative language and has brought aliens in to explain things away so he doesn't have to say the N-word.
unidentified
Yeah.
dan friesen
Or any other slurs.
jordan holmes
Man, it's so much...
Why haven't the rest of white people figured out that you don't even need to say the N-word?
Just call them raptoids or whatever it is.
dan friesen
Reptoids.
Raptors are good ones.
jordan holmes
According to Mark.
dan friesen
So, Jordan, I don't know how I feel about all that.
I feel conflicted.
unidentified
Do you?
dan friesen
Not much.
jordan holmes
No.
dan friesen
Nope.
jordan holmes
Just racism.
unidentified
Nope.
dan friesen
Yep.
jordan holmes
Just straight up racism.
There's really no conflict.
dan friesen
I was trying to present it as I'm conflicted.
No, absolutely not.
unidentified
No, no, no.
jordan holmes
He's just a big old racist that says Raptor instead of whatever.
dan friesen
I'm not conflicted about that.
unidentified
Nope.
dan friesen
I'm slightly conflicted about how to integrate that into the bigger picture of a lot of stuff.
It becomes difficult to look at the bigger picture of Mark Richards' quote-unquote philosophy and worldview.
We keep seeing little glimpses of this stuff.
jordan holmes
Right.
dan friesen
And it's not super overt, but if you know the tropes, they're there.
And it does really raise the question of, like, how much of this is intentional on his part?
How much does he know he's playing into these tropes?
So that's the part that I'm conflicted about.
jordan holmes
This is a huge question that I cannot believe I have never asked you before.
Mark Richards went to jail.
It was a big news story in 84. Yeah.
Right?
There has to have been an interview with his dad.
dan friesen
The Dutchman?
jordan holmes
There has to have been some sort of, can you give me a comment?
Right?
He went to the trial?
Or maybe he didn't.
dan friesen
I don't know.
jordan holmes
Maybe the Dutchman was off-planet.
But there has to be some sort of surface-level comment that the Dutchman has made.
dan friesen
Not necessarily.
There's a decent chance he was already dead by then, like his real dad.
jordan holmes
Oh, yeah, that's true.
dan friesen
There's a chance.
I mean...
Who knows?
There also is a chance that he was an absentee dad.
He didn't know him.
I don't know enough about Mark Richards' actual real life to know that it's possible that he was abandoned by his dad.
That's one possibility.
jordan holmes
I mean, just looking at his story and working backwards, chances are a strong father figure wasn't necessarily...
Or a positive father figure wasn't necessarily part of the whole equation.
dan friesen
Or it's even possible that his dad was on the up and up and what have you, and after he very clearly committed this murder, every news organization that wanted a comment, he'd be like, hey, fuck off!
jordan holmes
You know, my son just murdered a guy.
dan friesen
Right, because if at that point it had been years of a deteriorating relationship between the two, and things not going well, and then there's a murder, You don't want to play out in the news, I tried to help him.
unidentified
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
dan friesen
You want to live your life.
jordan holmes
Especially not if you are part of the secret space department.
dan friesen
Well, absolutely.
unidentified
Yeah.
So that's two forms of corroborating evidence, according to Carrie Cassidy.
dan friesen
There's a real-world version of his dad as a person who would not appear in any...
jordan holmes
For sure.
For sure.
dan friesen
But then there's also the Dutchman who also wouldn't appear in any texts.
jordan holmes
But there's a real world version that he does.
dan friesen
Both.
No matter what the evidence is, it could prove either.
So who gives a shit?
jordan holmes
Fair enough.
Fair enough.
dan friesen
So in this next clip, Jordan, he hates Eddie Page.
Not hates, but he's not into Eddie Page.
But it turns out that there's a reason.
That he doesn't like Eddie Page.
It's not just that Eddie Page is saying there's going to be a Draco invasion and Mark doesn't agree with that.
Turns out, empirical evidence is what you seek?
kerry cassidy
Regarding Eddie Page, he made a special point after I left to contact me to let me know that he had either he had Arvid, he's a very good remote viewer, so either he...
He took a look at Eddie Page or he got information about him.
He says that he is heavily programmed.
He also said that if he spends 10 minutes with him, he could tell if he was truly Pleiadian.
Mark was married to a Pleiadian.
A lot of people don't know that.
But it is in the history of the interviews I've done with Mark in the past.
So you can go back and look that up.
jordan holmes
That is true.
dan friesen
I did go back and look that up because I was like, wait, I thought he was married to that raptor princess.
I thought that was why we decided that turns out he was just banging around with that raptor princess.
jordan holmes
He's banging around with the raptor princess.
dan friesen
He was married to a Pleiadian.
So that checks out.
jordan holmes
Actually, I think I might remember that one for some reason.
dan friesen
Yeah, that checks out.
Yeah.
unidentified
Where to go, Carrie?
dan friesen
You got two guys confirming your story here.
Yeah, he did say he was married to a Pleiadian, which Joanne was like, oh my god, this is salacious.
I thought I was his first one.
jordan holmes
Ah, you weren't, Joanne.
What else has he been lying to you about?
unidentified
I'm going to go with everything.
dan friesen
He's been truthful about everything except for the fact that there were real raptors at Dinosaurs Walk the Earth.
jordan holmes
Oh, that's right.
He was lying about that.
dan friesen
And at Jurassic Park.
Jurassic World, excuse me.
jordan holmes
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
How dare you say Jurassic Park?
Come on.
dan friesen
No, no, no.
Those raptors were fake.
In Jurassic World, they were real.
jordan holmes
And yet Steven Spielberg captured their essence perhaps better than the real ones could.
dan friesen
It's possibly true.
Sometimes art is a better facsimile of life than life itself.
jordan holmes
Indeed.
dan friesen
So, I don't know, man.
Eddie Page got remote viewed by Mark Richards and he found out all this stuff.
I love the idea, though, that he's saying, like, put me in a room with him.
I'll tell you if he's bleeding or not.
Because you bring Eddie Page to that prison, he's like, nope!
He's going to say no in a second.
jordan holmes
I really want that to happen.
dan friesen
God, me too.
unidentified
Oh, that would be beautiful.
dan friesen
That's the logical escalation of this, right?
jordan holmes
Yeah, yeah, yeah, it has to.
dan friesen
I mean, for things to move forward, Carrie has to insist.
All right, Eddie.
I have some questions about your story.
The only way that you're going to be a consistent piece of my show in the future is if you agree to come with me to see Mark.
jordan holmes
And Mark gives you the stamp of approval.
dan friesen
Right.
That has to be the next stage.
jordan holmes
Now, as part of our consulting firm...
The answer to Eddie Pudge is run!
dan friesen
No!
jordan holmes
No!
dan friesen
You don't even have to run at this point.
You just gotta brainstorm.
You gotta come up with a reason why you can't.
unidentified
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
dan friesen
That's it.
jordan holmes
Oh, no, no, no.
It turns out...
Escalate the feud!
Escalate the feud.
Great idea.
What do you mean?
What do you mean?
Are you trusting this Mark Richards guy?
dan friesen
Bullshit.
Bullshit.
You're wrong.
jordan holmes
Okay.
dan friesen
We already talked about this.
jordan holmes
Yeah, that's not right.
dan friesen
What he has to do is he has to go heel.
unidentified
You're right.
dan friesen
He has to become the devil.
He has to become like, yes, absolutely, Mark is right.
I am not who I pretend to be.
unidentified
Right, right, right.
dan friesen
And then still let himself be interviewed.
jordan holmes
He still has to go.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Then you get the great stuff.
dan friesen
If he turns heel and is just like, I'll talk to you, but I have some demonic information for you, it all still works.
jordan holmes
Right.
It all still works.
dan friesen
There's no reason to change anything.
jordan holmes
No, you're right.
Our consultancy firm...
From where I was thinking was still based in the real world.
I forgot that we were going back into WWE territory.
dan friesen
You were still hoping for also a situation where Mark and Eddie would be on the same page.
There's no way for that.
They're both too ego-driven that each want to be alphas of the story.
They can't coexist with each other.
They have to be on opposite sides.
They're counterbalancing each other.
Eddie is the sort of evil dark brother.
Mark Richards disagrees with him.
jordan holmes
For every Christ, there is an Antichrist.
dan friesen
He is the noble one who is doing 30-something years in prison and will be there for the rest of his life.
jordan holmes
For a crime he did not commit.
dan friesen
For the crime he didn't commit because he is so good.
jordan holmes
Yeah.
dan friesen
That sort of thing.
Eddie Page hasn't committed any crimes, but he is fucking bad.
jordan holmes
Actually, he has committed so many crimes.
dan friesen
Sure.
jordan holmes
And that's why he's free.
dan friesen
Probably war crimes.
jordan holmes
They're protecting him.
dan friesen
Anyway, I'm going to skip this next clip because it's just Carrie talking about how elites have made a deal with the devil.
jordan holmes
Eh, they always do that.
dan friesen
I'm like, eh, that sounds like Alex, but very superficial.
unidentified
That's normal.
dan friesen
Not important.
jordan holmes
I mean, in a certain sense, they did.
And they always do.
dan friesen
And they always will.
She's talking about the literal devil.
jordan holmes
Right, right, right, right.
dan friesen
So, this next clip, Jordan, we run into a sort of issue where...
Carrie, at the beginning of the episode, has said that Mark is still a captain in the Navy and secret space program.
jordan holmes
Should have gotten a promotion by now.
dan friesen
Oh, undoubtedly.
Should be a corporal.
jordan holmes
Yeah, at least.
dan friesen
Sergeant at arms.
Or should be the chairman of the Joint Chiefs.
It's a difficult question to answer why he would still be an active member of the service.
jordan holmes
Yeah.
dan friesen
And be in prison and all this stuff.
But thankfully, Carrie...
jordan holmes
Oh, did she clear that up first?
dan friesen
She's got the aloe.
That will soothe that burn in this next clip.
kerry cassidy
Mark is in a rather delicate position because even though he is trusted by a certain group of the Secret Space program, he is very close to the Raptors and this keeps him in sort of this gray area of suspicion simply because of his relationship and in a certain sense.
control of the raptors, which makes him a real force to be reckoned with.
jordan holmes
Does it?
dan friesen
Holy shit.
He controls the raptors.
unidentified
Wait, what?
dan friesen
Hold on.
Huh?
unidentified
He controls the raptors.
jordan holmes
No, I don't understand how that makes sense at all.
dan friesen
He controls the raptors.
We didn't know that before.
This is a huge deal.
jordan holmes
What do you mean he controls the raptors?
dan friesen
She buried the lead.
He controls the fucking raptors.
jordan holmes
Okay.
Let's just play this out.
dan friesen
Please.
jordan holmes
Let's just play this out.
dan friesen
Please.
I would like you also to start from the bottom.
jordan holmes
I'm really trying here.
dan friesen
Because that's a new piece of information.
jordan holmes
All right.
So...
Raptors, we're still saying that the Raptors are good, even though by association with Mark Richards, that suggests that they are in fact bad, and that the Reptoids are good.
dan friesen
If we take our context out of it, knowing what we know, and just look at what they're presenting, Mark and the Raptors are good.
So let's operate on that for now.
jordan holmes
So why does Mark Richards have control over the Raptors?
Is it because he fucked a princess one time?
dan friesen
I think so.
I think that's a part of it.
I think that's definitely a part of it.
He's like a James Bond of aliens.
Or Captain Kirk, I guess.
jordan holmes
I'll accept that.
unidentified
He's Captain Kirk.
jordan holmes
He's Captain Kirk.
dan friesen
From the original series where he's fucking around with everybody.
jordan holmes
You fuck an alien, you gain control of an entire species.
dan friesen
Basically, yeah.
jordan holmes
That's standard operating procedure.
dan friesen
Or you smooth out allegiances, alliances.
Right, right, right, right.
With sex play.
You sport fuck some aliens, and all of a sudden, you guys were on the same team.
jordan holmes
So now he exists in a strange in-between stage.
Where some parts of the secret space program accept that this man is trustworthy.
We can believe in him.
But other parts of the secret space program...
dan friesen
Maybe the newer guard.
jordan holmes
Right, right, right.
Because they're unfamiliar with the Dutchman.
dan friesen
From the last 30 years, he's been in prison.
Maybe they've been indoctrinated by the demonic forces within the secret space program.
jordan holmes
What about the 30-year-old guys in the secret space program?
They don't even know who Mark Richards is!
dan friesen
No.
jordan holmes
And then you're going to tell me that Mark Richards controls the Rep...
We can't even be sure.
Look, they'll eat us for fucking chocolate, right?
We can't be sure they're the good guys.
So you're telling me that even though Mark Richards, who now controls the raptors.
dan friesen
We now know.
He does control the raptors.
jordan holmes
Which means every single time a raptor eats a human being for a bar of chocolate, that's with the consent.
Of Mark Richards.
dan friesen
Or it's a demonstration of failure of leadership.
unidentified
One of the two.
jordan holmes
Yeah.
There's no win on this one for Mark Richards.
dan friesen
No.
But it's not necessarily that he ordered the hit.
jordan holmes
It could be that he can't keep his boys in line.
It doesn't mean that he ordered the hit.
dan friesen
No, no, no.
jordan holmes
It just means that he's got a very lax view of, you know.
It's like he's Eric Prince.
He's the Eric Prince of the Raptors.
Sure, you rape and pillage and commit war crimes, but as long as you're doing what I need you to do, baby, we're going to be fine.
dan friesen
It's interesting because now you have sort of a mercenary space situation, which is tough.
jordan holmes
I'm going to go with Mark Richards has abandoned the secret space program.
And has instead gone into private contracting work.
dan friesen
Much like Prince.
jordan holmes
Using his relationship with the raptors.
They're his backup.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
And that's the only thing that's keeping him from being cut in half in fucking Vacaville Prison.
dan friesen
The hypothetical threat of raptor aliens showing up.
I would say that if I were in prison and I ran into him, I'd be like, I'm going to give him a wide berth.
jordan holmes
Wide berth.
dan friesen
I'm going to be like, oh, you talk to aliens?
Have fun.
Have fun, buddy.
jordan holmes
You are an interesting cat.
And I would like a transfer to wherever is not you are.
dan friesen
I will be in my cell.
Please don't come near me.
Yeah, man, it's weird.
It's super weird.
It's very difficult to suss out what this means in terms of, like, universal politics.
That now Mark Richards controls the Raptors.
And that's why...
jordan holmes
Does he just control the raptors here on Earth, or does he control raptors?
unidentified
All of them.
jordan holmes
All of them.
dan friesen
But that's why the secret space program has a tentative restraint with him.
They respect him, but also they're worried because this other alien race, he's on board with them to an extent that he's so awesome that he controls all of them.
Much like, I would assume, it's...
I don't know.
The relationship he has with them is similar to...
I was trying to come up with a Star Wars parallel.
The only thing I can come up with is Han Solo is the only one who can talk to Chewie.
jordan holmes
That's not true.
dan friesen
It's not?
No.
jordan holmes
Eventually Luke can talk to Chewie.
dan friesen
I don't like those movies that much.
jordan holmes
How dare you?
How dare you?
Leia can talk to Chewie.
Everybody can talk to Chewie.
dan friesen
Not everybody.
jordan holmes
Not everybody can talk to Chewie.
dan friesen
C-3PO can because he knows thousands of languages.
jordan holmes
Even Lando can talk to Chewie.
dan friesen
Yeah, everyone can talk to Chewie except the audience, which is frustrating.
jordan holmes
Yeah, that is the biggest problem with the Star Wars films.
Correct, Dan.
I apologize.
The context never made it clear what Chewie was trying to say.
dan friesen
I want subtitles.
Listen.
jordan holmes
How about you go to Kashyyyk and learn the language, Dan?
dan friesen
So, Jordan, in this next clip, Carrie has a decent question to ask, and that is about the real world.
jordan holmes
Yeah.
dan friesen
And that is like, hey, do...
jordan holmes
That's a bad avenue for her to go down.
dan friesen
Do people in the military know who you are?
jordan holmes
The answer is no.
kerry cassidy
I asked him if the generals around Trump know who Mark is and if they are read in.
And he said some are, some aren't.
He said General Dumford, the chairman of the Joint Chiefs, is in the know.
And by the way, Simon Parks also referred to this general, saying that he was instrumental in...
Sort of backing up and making Trump's administration possible.
Some of the generals around Trump really don't know anything about the secret space topic, and they don't know who Mark is.
I said to Mark that that sounded very dangerous, and Mark agreed.
dan friesen
Of course he agrees.
jordan holmes
Yeah, it would be...
dan friesen
No matter what she said, he would agree.
jordan holmes
It would be really fascinating if Mark...
Actually, you know what?
I'm going to go back to Knowledge Fight Consultancy firm.
dan friesen
Okay.
jordan holmes
Say you don't agree.
Say that it's actually a good thing that some of the generals don't know about me.
dan friesen
Interesting.
Let's play this out.
jordan holmes
That keeps my cover under wraps.
If all the generals know about me, that's a dangerous thing.
I'm in too much danger.
Exactly.
dan friesen
Think about how many of those generals are going to be.
jordan holmes
Because some of them don't want me.
Exactly.
dan friesen
They're working for the Reptoids.
jordan holmes
Exactly.
So you only want the guys who are in power to know, like General Dunford.
Which, by the way.
dan friesen
Joseph Dunford.
jordan holmes
I don't necessarily know if this is a thing that reflects negatively on me or reflects negatively on the world we live in.
Is he still the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff?
dan friesen
He is, yes.
jordan holmes
Okay.
Now, you can understand why that is a concerning thought because how many different...
Chiefs of Staff have we gone through?
It's reasonable to not be sure if you know anybody in a cabinet-level position.
dan friesen
Yeah, yeah, no, for sure.
He's been in as long as we've been talking about people who reference him.
jordan holmes
Oh, okay.
unidentified
Well, that's nice.
dan friesen
I don't know if he's been in as the Joint Chiefs the entire time that we've been doing this podcast, but every time that the Joint Chief of Staff has come up, he has been it.
And the only reason that this comes, like, is even in my memory, is that there was that time that Alex had Zack on, his fake intelligence source, Zack.
jordan holmes
Yeah, exactly.
dan friesen
And he couldn't come up with Dunford.
jordan holmes
See, that's why I was...
dan friesen
He couldn't come up with the name.
jordan holmes
That's why, that's exactly what I was thinking of, where I was like, well...
Am I even sure?
Since Zach can't even come up with it, and he's a high-level source.
dan friesen
Right, he's not.
jordan holmes
Who do we even know?
dan friesen
Dunford is the greatest prop in that toolbox, basically.
jordan holmes
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
dan friesen
And Zach couldn't come up with it.
And thankfully, Carrie has Google.
So does Mark.
jordan holmes
I don't know if he has Google.
dan friesen
Bing.
You can find Dunford on Bing.
At this point, the podcast turns, I would say, messy.
We have some more clips to get through.
jordan holmes
Our podcast or the show?
dan friesen
Her show.
jordan holmes
Her show.
dan friesen
Project Camelot turns a little bit messy.
jordan holmes
All right.
dan friesen
At this point, we have things that we disagree with by virtue of science, by virtue of evidence, those sorts of things.
jordan holmes
Some of those things, though, we can only know roughly 100 to 1,000 years from now.
dan friesen
Well, one of those things, yes.
But the rest of it's kind of like, eh, this is bullshit.
Also, it's kind of funny.
jordan holmes
Right.
dan friesen
At this point, we kind of take a turn into a situation where now the narratives are just going to be this, like, I don't even know why you're saying this.
I know that it's what Mark is telling you, but this makes no sense.
kerry cassidy
Regarding Elon Musk, he's been adopted recently, as you may know, and apparently...
jordan holmes
Not enough!
kerry cassidy
Mark Zuckerberg Facebook has been given the rocket deals that were part of Elon Musk's stuff.
dan friesen
That's not great.
jordan holmes
What?
Is that how that works?
dan friesen
So Mark Zuckerberg, now that Elon Musk has been indicted by the SEC and Tesla still exists.
Now that Elon Musk has been indicted, Mark Zuckerberg, who has not a rocket company to his name, has a social media network.
unidentified
Hold on, what?
dan friesen
He now gets the rocket deals that were a part of Elon Musk's stuff.
jordan holmes
Alright, Elon, you created a company.
Built on perhaps the sham idea of futuristic technologies.
dan friesen
But did involve rockets.
jordan holmes
But did involve rockets.
dan friesen
You better believe it.
jordan holmes
And I'll be goddamned if you haven't been doing your hardest, right?
dan friesen
You shot that car with a mannequin into space.
jordan holmes
You did great.
dan friesen
Yeah, we all love that.
unidentified
We're loving it.
jordan holmes
Now.
dan friesen
That was a great publicity stunt.
jordan holmes
You got indicted with, at the most, a slap on the wrist.
So we can't do this.
dan friesen
For something you very clearly did.
jordan holmes
Oh, for the crime that you committed that you should probably do time for.
dan friesen
You committed fraud.
jordan holmes
Elon, you lost a lot of people, a lot of money very quickly.
dan friesen
Who aren't named Elon Musk.
jordan holmes
Who aren't you.
And that's a crime.
Like, in the world that we live in, that's a crime.
unidentified
It sucks.
dan friesen
It's a real shitty thing.
jordan holmes
However, in the world we live in also, you're rich, so nobody's gonna bother you.
But we can't trust you with these rockets anymore.
dan friesen
No, those rockets go to Mark Zuckerberg.
jordan holmes
So what we're going to do is we're going to give these rockets to the guy from The Social Network by Aaron Sorkin.
Is he a real guy or is that a fictional movie?
Like, I'm going to need you...
dan friesen
I mean, it's slightly fictional.
jordan holmes
I don't believe Sorkin's dialogue.
Look, I love everybody masturbating to his liberal bullshit dialogue, but I'm going to be honest with you, it doesn't sound like the way real people talk.
dan friesen
Sure.
But let's imagine the most nightmarish, conspiracy, woo, version of Mark Zuckerberg.
Yeah.
jordan holmes
Rockets!
dan friesen
That version does not involve rockets.
That doesn't involve the infrastructure that is required in order to have rocket contracts.
jordan holmes
What do you mean?
Are you saying that the Facebook campuses aren't building rockets?
dan friesen
No.
I'm saying that's a totally different business.
What Mark Zuckerberg is into is stealing your information and selling it to the highest bidder.
That is not the same business that is involved with actual...
Like, to build a rocket, you need...
jordan holmes
It's tough.
dan friesen
You need a lot of different departments.
You need a lot of specialized scientists, and Mark Zuckerberg is not in that business.
unidentified
No.
dan friesen
So the idea that Mark Richards is pitching to Kerry, look, Elon Musk, a guy.
With a rocket company.
unidentified
Right.
jordan holmes
Who committed a crime.
dan friesen
Got indicted.
jordan holmes
That requires jail time.
dan friesen
So now, because he's out of the picture, which he's not, Mark Zuckerberg now gets his rocket contracts.
jordan holmes
Yep.
dan friesen
Ludicrous.
unidentified
Ludicrous.
jordan holmes
I do like the worldview, though.
dan friesen
I do, too.
I do, too.
jordan holmes
Of every billionaire.
Is also Hank Scorpio from The Simpsons.
Irregardless of how you made your money, you are also Scorpio.
Like, you're also an evil supervillain.
dan friesen
Well, there's that.
But then I also like the idea that no matter what, if you're one of these people that we're taught to be afraid of, these figureheads of businesses and stuff like that, one of them goes down, you are...
You might be varsity at Facebook.
jordan holmes
Hold on, Dan.
dan friesen
You are the sixth man at Tesla.
jordan holmes
Are you waiting to say Hail Hydra?
Because I think that's what you're about to say.
dan friesen
More or less.
You will easily slide in as now the CEO of Tesla.
jordan holmes
How hard can it be?
dan friesen
It's nonsense.
jordan holmes
Look, if you know how to market a social network, you know how to build a rocket.
That's science.
dan friesen
Science.
jordan holmes
I read that.
dan friesen
It's bad science.
jordan holmes
I read that in Science Magazine that's about science.
dan friesen
So, um, that's crazy.
jordan holmes
Yeah.
dan friesen
In this next clip, uh...
jordan holmes
Wait, no.
He really said that, though, right?
unidentified
Oh, yeah, he did.
jordan holmes
He really said that Elon Musk, because he was indicted...
All of his contracts now went to Zuckerberg.
dan friesen
Not all his contracts, his rocket contracts.
jordan holmes
Just his rocket contracts went to Zuckerberg.
dan friesen
And then let's hear the end of this really quick, because I feel like it bears hearing again the way that Carrie peters out at the end of this, because she has no specifics.
kerry cassidy
The rocket deals that were part of Elon Musk's...
Stuff.
dan friesen
Stuff.
jordan holmes
Couldn't have even come up with portfolio?
I would have accepted portfolio.
That would have sounded like you knew what you were talking about.
dan friesen
Better than stuff.
jordan holmes
Better than stuff.
dan friesen
You know, it's just Zuckerberg gets his stuff.
jordan holmes
Hey, we'll give his stuff to Zuckerberg.
Move on.
dan friesen
We all know that's how the SEC works.
jordan holmes
I wish I could find my Southside Suburb Chicago voice again.
dan friesen
No.
jordan holmes
Apparently it's not coming up.
dan friesen
I'm glad you can't.
So, in this next clip, we all know that Mark Richards has already said that he's remote-viewed Eddie Page.
jordan holmes
Right.
dan friesen
And that he could smell a Pleiadian immediately.
He'd be able to tell.
jordan holmes
Which is kind of racist in and of itself.
dan friesen
Nah, he's married to one, he knows.
Which is also racist as a justification.
jordan holmes
It's okay for me to say the P word because I married one.
dan friesen
Right, basically.
So in this next clip, though, we get this really interesting way that Mark is trying to really invalidate Eddie Page, but he's doing it through, like, secondary kind of thing.
Like, the way he's using language is sort of like, Raptor told me he had a small dick!
Nope.
Mark Richards is trying to do an if A, then B, if B, then C, and Carrie isn't really picking up on the syllogism.
jordan holmes
Okay.
kerry cassidy
Mark said because he was married to a Pleiadian, he knows quite a bit about them.
He does not believe Pleiadians can be mind-controlled.
Why?
In Eddie's case, he said he thought they could be mind-controlled if they allow it.
And one does wonder why a Pleiadian would allow themselves to be mind-controlled by humans.
Yeah, you would.
And this does open the question as to which races are programming humans at this time.
dan friesen
It does.
It does open that up.
So the only possibilities are what you said exactly, that Eddie Page is a Pleiadian and he has chosen to become brainwashed.
jordan holmes
He's going undercover.
dan friesen
Probably not.
Or he's lying about being a Pleiadian because he is mind-controlled.
That's established.
He is mind-controlled.
jordan holmes
He is mind-controlled.
Everybody agrees.
dan friesen
If he's mind-controlled...
jordan holmes
Except for him, which makes sense.
dan friesen
Right.
jordan holmes
If he denies it, that's only corroborating evidence to the fact that he is mind-controlled.
dan friesen
Absolutely.
jordan holmes
Yeah.
dan friesen
So we have both avenues that are possible.
There's the two avenues, and both are Eddie Page is a fucking suspect.
unidentified
Yeah.
dan friesen
And don't trust him.
jordan holmes
Can't trust him.
dan friesen
Which is obviously...
Super advantageous for Mark, because it's like, I'm protecting my fucking turf.
jordan holmes
It's also super advantageous for Carrie, because fuck Eddie Page.
dan friesen
Sure, he's become too much of a liability with his video game shit and his racism.
jordan holmes
Right.
dan friesen
That I would much rather, now speaking as Carrie, I would much rather have my narrative with the greatest whistleblower in the world who's in prison that I can completely control the narrative of.
Exactly.
unidentified
Even if he says the N-word when I'm talking to him, I don't have to report that.
dan friesen
I can just whitewash and be like, okay, here's what he's saying.
Oh, my God, isn't this interesting that it's so close to exactly what I believe?
The two people's interests...
That are best served by invalidating Eddie Page are Carrie Cassidy and Mark Richards.
jordan holmes
Which may be why Carrie could have expedited this visit, so to speak.
dan friesen
Or just not done it, or the second Eddie started to smell bad, just be like, nah, I'm done with this.
You could have done that.
Like the sirens.
jordan holmes
Yeah.
dan friesen
You hear someone saying that they're an alien and you're drawn to the coast.
jordan holmes
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
dan friesen
Fucking ship is going to wreck.
jordan holmes
And it eats you alive.
dan friesen
Yeah.
So in this next clip, because he was married to a Pleiadian.
jordan holmes
Right.
dan friesen
Mark Richards has some ways to tell who is a Pleiadian.
jordan holmes
His dick.
dan friesen
Some of this is very reminiscent of other characterizations of people.
jordan holmes
Oh, no.
kerry cassidy
One thing that Mark did say that helps you tell a Pleiadian is that they don't like to look you directly in the eyes.
They have trouble responding to everyday chat with appropriate microexpressions, and they tend to copy or imitate our microexpressions during conversation rather consciously.
And he used an example that humans lick their lips sort of involuntarily.
Even during a conversation or something, but that's something that the Pleiadians would never do, and that they would then adopt that behavior purposely, and so it would look quite odd.
And so this kind of is a giveaway on being able to tell someone is Pleiadian.
jordan holmes
I mean, I guess that's better than where I thought it was going.
dan friesen
Yeah, yeah, probably.
jordan holmes
It said he was like...
You can never trust anybody on the autistic spectrum as opposed to where I thought he was going, which is like, they don't like to swim and they like watermelon and fried chicken.
I'm better off thinking that he hates...
I don't know why.
dan friesen
You're on the wrong side of this.
These are people who are good.
The Pleiadians are good.
jordan holmes
Oh, okay.
dan friesen
So he's not saying anything negative about this, but it is weird.
jordan holmes
So anybody on the autistic spectrum...
dan friesen
Because you are correct in terms of...
The sort of broad characterizations he's making are the Asperger's type spectrum, the autism spectrum that he's describing, like, people who are averse to eye contact, social cues being misunderstood.
jordan holmes
Right.
dan friesen
That sort of thing is what he's described.
I think he read an article.
jordan holmes
Anyone who's not neurotypical.
dan friesen
I think he read an article on that sort of thing and he's like, oh, that's what Pleiadians are, which I actually feel pretty good about.
Because the Pleiadians are heroes in that world.
So the fact that he's not, like, taking this neuroatypical group and demonizing them, he's saying that that is a way to tell who are the good among us.
jordan holmes
I mean, at the same time, though, that's...
dan friesen
It's accidental, but it's positive.
unidentified
Yeah, but I mean, I don't know.
jordan holmes
That gets into the stereotype game where it's like...
dan friesen
No, you're right.
jordan holmes
Is it positive?
dan friesen
It's othering and saying that sort of behavior is alien.
unidentified
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
jordan holmes
Whenever somebody's like, oh, no, no, no, I'm not being racist towards Asian people.
They're just better at math.
And you're like, no, you are.
I get that you're expressing it as a positive connotation, but that doesn't necessarily mean that you're not being a complete and total racist.
dan friesen
No, you're right.
You're right.
jordan holmes
Like, he's definitely like...
I saw this movie, and I'm going to tell you right now.
This guy, this Pleiadian, he kept saying Wapner.
It was crazy.
dan friesen
You're right.
It is like that.
But for the bar that we live in...
jordan holmes
Fair, fair, fair.
It's better than the other.
It's better than the alternative.
unidentified
He could have described Draco's like that.
dan friesen
He could have taken the idea of sort of autism spectrum traits and applied it to a negative, evil alien race.
And he didn't do that.
jordan holmes
Right.
dan friesen
So it's like, it's not great, but we gotta recognize the slight win.
jordan holmes
I guess it's...
I'm not a fan of anyone.
dan friesen
No.
Because we live in the real world.
And we know that, like...
I mean, Mark is just wrestling with stuff.
There's a lot of shit he's clearly trying to work out through this interview series with Carrie.
So, Jordan, in this next clip, I know that earlier in this show, you were expressing an idea that the Raptors killed people for chocolate, which has been brought up by Carrie and Mark in the past.
jordan holmes
And has been proven true.
dan friesen
Well, apparently.
I think that you're foolish to think that that is a reason not to trust them.
Is it?
It's explained in this next clip.
jordan holmes
Okay.
kerry cassidy
You know, one thing he said was an interesting comment.
He said the raptors, mantids, Pleiadians, and Kanonians are loyal to us just like in World War II.
jordan holmes
Sure.
kerry cassidy
And he says that our allies, especially in deep space, have really stepped up and taken up the fight with Draco.
And he has never been double-crossed by a raptor.
And even he used to be suspicious of them because they used to eat people, but now he feels they're totally loyal.
dan friesen
So calm down.
They used to eat people.
Mark Richards, he was suspicious about that.
He's grown through it.
unidentified
And now, Jordan, Jordan, it is time for you to grow through that.
jordan holmes
Head shake.
No.
dan friesen
Back in the past, Mark Richards was just like you.
He heard these things that they like to eat people, and he was like, uh-uh, no, no, not cool, not cool.
But he's seen their track record.
They're loyal.
Just like in World War II.
They got our back, these raptors.
jordan holmes
Yeah, like the Russians.
dan friesen
Now they admittedly ate people for chocolate.
But that's in the past.
We all have a lot of struggles in life.
And one of them...
unidentified
And one of them...
dan friesen
Is my allies, who I ostensibly control, eat people.
jordan holmes
Yeah, that is an issue.
dan friesen
That's tough.
jordan holmes
It can be an issue.
dan friesen
It's super advantageous for you to be like, look, I know that's kind of one of their things is, you know, whatever.
But you've got to look at the bigger picture.
They just blew up a Draco moon.
jordan holmes
Right.
dan friesen
So, are you going to sneeze on that?
jordan holmes
We never would have stopped Napoleon if the Russians hadn't had a lot of land.
dan friesen
Or World War II.
jordan holmes
Yeah, we never would have stopped Hitler if the Russians hadn't had a lot of land.
dan friesen
Right.
And been a nice target for him.
So, I don't know.
There's nothing good here.
Jordan, we are now entering what I will say is the new Mark Richards game.
jordan holmes
Okay.
dan friesen
Which we should have been playing all along, quite frankly.
Or maybe even the new Project Camelot game.
jordan holmes
Okay.
dan friesen
Which is, I know that every single time we do an episode that involves space...
There will be a new race of aliens that comes up.
unidentified
Oh, okay.
jordan holmes
Now, I like this game.
unidentified
I like this game.
dan friesen
So what do we got?
I have a clip that will introduce a new race of aliens.
jordan holmes
Okay.
dan friesen
But I need for you, Jordan, to come in and tell me what do you think that race of aliens will be.
jordan holmes
Ooh, this is a good question!
dan friesen
Now, I will do this.
I will tell you that I will answer five questions about what this race of aliens is.
You cannot make a guess before you ask those five questions.
jordan holmes
Is it a mammalian species?
dan friesen
No!
jordan holmes
Alright.
Is it a reptilian species?
dan friesen
I actually can't say...
jordan holmes
You can't ask me these things!
dan friesen
Get rid of that question.
I'll answer the question.
That's not one of your five.
jordan holmes
Alright.
dan friesen
It is considered a reptilian species, but the name would not lead you to think that it is.
The name is not a reptile.
But the people think of them as reptilian.
jordan holmes
That's the most confusing thing that you have ever said to me.
dan friesen
But I have to be clear about this.
jordan holmes
What sector of space are they from?
dan friesen
Not clear.
unidentified
And even if I answered that, it would not help you.
dan friesen
Two questions down.
Number three.
jordan holmes
Alright.
dan friesen
You need to really just start asking concrete questions.
jordan holmes
Alright.
I just...
Okay.
Are they evil?
dan friesen
You bet.
Number three.
unidentified
Okay.
jordan holmes
They're you bet evil.
dan friesen
Super evil.
unidentified
Alright.
jordan holmes
So we have established a...
Non-mammalian reptilian species that you wouldn't expect to be reptilian.
dan friesen
The name is not reptilian.
jordan holmes
From an undefined sector of space that is evil.
dan friesen
Very evil.
jordan holmes
Alright, so we've got that established.
So let's narrow it down.
dan friesen
You have two questions left.
jordan holmes
Narrow it down.
We're narrowing it down.
We're narrowing it down.
Can they breathe underwater?
dan friesen
I honestly don't know the answer to the question, but I will say based on the name, no.
So I'm going to give you one question left.
jordan holmes
I have one question left.
dan friesen
If I were you, I would have asked way different questions.
jordan holmes
Well, yeah, obviously that's why we aren't doing you talking by yourself the show.
dan friesen
That's a fair point.
Last question, Jordan.
jordan holmes
All right.
This reptilian species that you would not immediately assume is reptilian based upon their name, are they indigenous to a certain continent?
And if so, what continent is that?
If further so...
Is that an island continent that could be explained away as evolutionary?
Anyways, continue.
dan friesen
This is a three-part question that I'm going to reject.
It's not going to help you.
It's not going to help you.
Now you have to give your guess.
jordan holmes
I'm going to go with...
It can't be dragons, so I'm going to go with salamanders.
kerry cassidy
I also asked Mark about the dragon moths.
Because I wondered if they were attacking the Draco as well.
jordan holmes
Dragon moths are not reptilian.
kerry cassidy
The dragon moths are also enemies of humans.
Of course.
So...
jordan holmes
They're moths!
kerry cassidy
It's interesting.
And if you want more about the dragon moths, the Acheonadeen Voyager books go into this race as well as others.
unidentified
What now?
kerry cassidy
Highly recommended.
jordan holmes
Are they?
kerry cassidy
And Mark is aware of the dragon moths, said he did not know what their involvement is at this time.
jordan holmes
So then he's not aware of the dragon moths.
kerry cassidy
The battles with Draco.
dan friesen
He knows that they're in play, but he doesn't know what they're up to.
jordan holmes
Oh, do you mean she said, do you know about the dragon moths?
And he said, I know about them.
I don't feel like they're part of this.
dan friesen
It's pretty crazy that you were like, you did say dragon right before.
You know, that was...
jordan holmes
Well, yeah, but I just...
Like, it can't be...
dan friesen
The dragon moths.
But that's why...
jordan holmes
What do you mean a dragon moth?
dan friesen
Well, they're considered...
jordan holmes
Also, that was a very misleading answer.
dan friesen
What?
jordan holmes
You said that they were a reptilian species that wouldn't be considered...
dan friesen
I didn't say that.
jordan holmes
You motherfucker.
dan friesen
I didn't...
jordan holmes
Play the tape back.
dan friesen
What I said was...
They are considered to be a reptilian species, based on my research, looking into an encyclopedia of aliens.
jordan holmes
Oh, okay.
dan friesen
But dragon moth is not a reptile.
So the name itself would not lead you to...
Like, if you were asked, is it a bug, I would have said you're on the right track.
jordan holmes
Exactly.
dan friesen
That sort of thing.
I got it now.
You know what?
jordan holmes
It's my fault.
It is.
dan friesen
It is.
jordan holmes
This whole confusion has been my creation all along.
dan friesen
So the Ashiana Dean books, the Voyager books, I looked into this.
These are these books that talk about all the same shit that Carrie talks about.
jordan holmes
Sure, sure, sure, sure.
dan friesen
And here's a little fun fact about them.
jordan holmes
Yeah.
dan friesen
You can buy a used copy of the paperback for $75 on Amazon.
jordan holmes
Oh, they must be good books.
dan friesen
Yeah, it must be great.
jordan holmes
It must be amazing.
dan friesen
It must be basically a textbook.
jordan holmes
They've been in print for so long.
dan friesen
Hot property.
jordan holmes
So many people own them.
It's hard not to get rid of them.
dan friesen
Yeah.
So I looked up the dragon moths, and they are like a conceived race of aliens that exist.
jordan holmes
Very Mothra style?
dan friesen
I found an encyclopedia of alien races that actually tickled me so much.
It's like...
Fucking E. Gary Gygax.
It might as well be the Book of Monsters.
jordan holmes
No, it's the Book of Monsters.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
unidentified
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
dan friesen
It's nuts.
There's the Bootleans.
These are reptilians from the Boots system.
jordan holmes
Well, that seems, at the very least, that's direct.
unidentified
Mm-hmm.
Mm-hmm.
dan friesen
There's also blue people.
jordan holmes
Just blue people?
dan friesen
The Cherokee tell of a race of people that were blue-skinned that they came upon when they entered the lands of Kentucky.
No, those guys are from Kentucky.
unidentified
Bingo.
dan friesen
That's not an alien race.
jordan holmes
Those are just people from Kentucky.
dan friesen
That's the Appalachians.
jordan holmes
That's literally like, oh boy, inbreeding is bad.
dan friesen
The aliens.
That's crazy.
I like that there are dragon moths now.
We got mantids.
We got reptilians.
We got raptors.
Spider leadership.
We got dragon moths now.
jordan holmes
Of course.
dan friesen
It's crazy.
jordan holmes
Gotta throw them in there.
dan friesen
This world of bugs is just increasing.
It's never not bugs.
jordan holmes
I don't understand.
dan friesen
It's always bugs.
jordan holmes
I don't understand.
Why it is that ants aren't number one on the alien species jump-to list.
dan friesen
I feel like they're in there, though.
jordan holmes
Ants are fucking incredible!
dan friesen
When you talk to, like, Hollow Earth people, they definitely talk about ant people.
They're in there.
jordan holmes
They're in the mix.
That makes more sense to me than any of this other shit.
If there was a Hollow Earth, I would assume that ants were behind it.
dan friesen
Oh, of course.
They dig a lot.
jordan holmes
They know what the fuck is up!
dan friesen
Yeah, they're already there.
jordan holmes
Yeah, they're the true rulers of this Earth.
dan friesen
Yeah.
So, congratulations, Dragon Moths.
You are now part of our Project Camelot cosmology.
Now, Jordan, I've been holding back a little bit.
jordan holmes
Yeah.
dan friesen
I should tell you that Carrie Cassidy ends up saying something at the end of this episode, in this next clip, that leads me to believe that she is keenly aware of how much she's probably misrepresenting the things that Mark Richards tells her and all of the other people that she talks to.
This is something that she should never have said.
kerry cassidy
That what I'm doing with Mark is trading info, and in some ways it's a lot like the sort of all the president's men, I think it's called deep throat, where you basically, you know, you say something, and if he nods or he says nothing, it means you're right.
But...
That's kind of what goes on between Mark and I sometimes.
unidentified
Not good.
kerry cassidy
And it is a way that I use to get information that's, I guess, of a more sensitive nature.
And I am sharing a lot of background information with him when I ask a question so that he understands where I'm coming from.
jordan holmes
Directing him to give me the answer that I want to hear.
kerry cassidy
The superficial answer.
jordan holmes
The answer that I want to hear.
kerry cassidy
Because this is a dynamic that goes on with whistleblowers in general.
jordan holmes
No, it's not.
kerry cassidy
If you show that you know a certain amount, then they will come and sort of meet you halfway.
jordan holmes
Nope, that's a spy movie.
kerry cassidy
If you act like a complete idiot, then you won't learn anything.
jordan holmes
Nope, that's not how that works.
kerry cassidy
So this is sort of an interesting dynamic I wanted to make people aware of.
jordan holmes
It's really not.
It's really not.
dan friesen
If you are talking to a con man and you come in and try and meet them halfway, they will use all of the information that you have presented to inform their answer.
jordan holmes
Yeah.
dan friesen
That's exactly how con men work.
jordan holmes
That's called being a whistleblower.
dan friesen
It's called cold reading.
jordan holmes
You know how when you blow whistles...
The first thing you do is you let the whistle make all the noises that it needs to make first.
dan friesen
Right.
jordan holmes
And then you try and recreate that noise back to the whistle, almost as if you're communicating in the whistle.
unidentified
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
jordan holmes
So that makes perfect sense.
dan friesen
Recording of a whistle.
jordan holmes
It makes perfect sense.
You're a minor bird.
dan friesen
What she's expressing there, like, first of all, at the beginning there, when she's talking about, like...
jordan holmes
Before you finish that sentence, let me just say...
Of all of the podcasts that we have ever done, I think that might be in the running.
dan friesen
It's damning.
jordan holmes
For the dumbest thing any human being has ever said.
dan friesen
Well, because it so undercuts her entire philosophy.
It undercuts her entire life's work.
jordan holmes
It undercuts the ability to understand words in general.
dan friesen
Well, because she starts with the idea of, like, I talk to Mark, and sometimes he doesn't respond.
And then I take that to mean that I'm right.
jordan holmes
Right.
dan friesen
Which is a...
That's a flawed system.
unidentified
No, no, no, no.
dan friesen
That's no good.
That's no good.
jordan holmes
Now, I'm not saying that this is a direct...
dan friesen
Jordan, ask me a question.
jordan holmes
One-to-one comparison.
unidentified
Ask me a question.
dan friesen
Ask me a question.
Any question.
Any question.
unidentified
Okay.
jordan holmes
What do you think is going on with Saudi Arabia right now?
Do you think that it's some kind of...
A power grab by a ruler that is unwilling to accept any kind of criticism?
Alright, do you think that maybe what's going on is a ruler who is unwilling to accept any kind of criticism decided to overreach his power because really he was kind of just wanting to test how far his power...
Would reach, you know?
Like, can he do something this publicly egregious on the world stage and still get away with it?
Okay.
Now, I get what you're saying.
dan friesen
This is evidence that I know about this and I don't want to talk about it.
That's bad.
That sort of level of reasoning is terrifying.
jordan holmes
No, like I said, that's the dumbest...
dan friesen
That's terrifying.
jordan holmes
That's...
The dumbest thing I think we've ever...
It's so bad.
You can't live in a world where people think like that, and that's okay.
dan friesen
Especially when the person who's not answering the questions is a dude who orchestrated a murder.
unidentified
Exactly.
dan friesen
And has been conning you for years.
jordan holmes
I know.
Oh, that would be terrible.
We should elect him president.
dan friesen
Then the second aspect of it, which is even more damning, which is crazy that she said it all within one minute, is that she's like, well, what I do is I give...
Context to the questions before I ask it, because I don't want a superficial answer, which is what a con man needs in order to answer the question.
If you want a real answer from somebody who has quote-unquote remote-viewed information, you need to have a control group.
You need to have a completely non-bastardized set of information.
You need...
Carrie Cassidy to show up and say nothing to Mark.
And Mark say, here's what I know.
Now, if in that case it does match up with what Simon Parks says, still don't care.
But it's better than when Carrie is saying, here's what Simon Parks believes.
I respect him.
He's really great.
Eddie Page is kind of an asshole.
I'm not sure if I really like him.
And then what he spits out is...
Oh, I kind of agree with what Simon Parks is saying.
unidentified
I'm going to sort of go along with that.
dan friesen
Eddie, I remote viewed him.
unidentified
You said that he was being mind-controlled.
dan friesen
He definitely is.
jordan holmes
Dan, when I go to an astrologist, I always provide them with all of the information of what's going on in my life, and I give them a clear indicator of what it is that I hope...
What continues to happen in my life and what I hope stops happening in my life.
And it's so wild to me how accurate they are in their predictions.
Of what I want to happen in my life being something that happens.
And what I don't want to happen in my life being something that not happens.
dan friesen
It's so weird.
I generally leave feeling pretty good.
jordan holmes
It's insane that they even charge me for this knowledge that they just have.
dan friesen
I feel pretty good.
Now, granted, I paid $200, but I feel great.
jordan holmes
It's almost criminal that every time I go to a psychic...
They ask me all of these questions, and then whenever I answer them, they give me the answers I want to hear, Dan.
That is bananas.
dan friesen
This is, what she just said in that last clip, is 100% how confidence games work.
jordan holmes
It is the exact...
Like, you couldn't be more...
dan friesen
It's the definition.
jordan holmes
It is literally the definition of how to run a con!
unidentified
Yep.
jordan holmes
She just said...
dan friesen
You give information...
unidentified
She just said...
jordan holmes
I am running a con on me!
That's what she just said!
dan friesen
Yep.
I'm allowing this con to run a con on me.
jordan holmes
So who's really running the con?
I don't know!
dan friesen
Who cons the con men?
jordan holmes
The con?
dan friesen
I mean, Carrie's making money off it, so she's not some innocent victim.
jordan holmes
No, she's doing alright.
dan friesen
Not great.
jordan holmes
It's like if you had a psychic in prison.
dan friesen
Like Miss Cleo was in prison.
jordan holmes
And you just used her to sell your money.
Or to sell your product.
dan friesen
If we could find some sort of confirmation that Mark, which I suspect very highly, is charging her to do these interviews.
If we could find that, then it would be much more concrete that she's the victim of this.
But at the same time, even if that's the case, she's still making hay out of it.
She's still making money.
When I listened to this, I had to cut out all of it, but I'm recording this from the YouTube video and there's like eight ads for an hour video.
It's highly monetized.
She has tons of ads playing throughout all of her videos.
jordan holmes
Frankly, to be honest, I'm actually...
This is a weird thing for me to say, but for...
Mark and Carrie's relationship.
I feel like Mark is a real content creator and he is not being paid to the level that he deserves.
dan friesen
I mean, if you want to talk about...
jordan holmes
I mean, if you want to get, like, who really invented Superman?
Okay, like, I'm just saying.
dan friesen
If you want to talk about, like, Mark should form a union.
jordan holmes
I mean, it's a bullshitter's union.
dan friesen
Yeah, they should start a union where they demand a living wage.
jordan holmes
And podcast guests deserve to be paid for their appearances.
dan friesen
Agreed, which is why we don't have guests.
Can't afford that shit.
Jordan, at this point, I think we get a really clear picture of what's going on.
We have Carrie has accidentally revealed that she leads questions and Mark...
Yes ands them.
jordan holmes
Once again, we are dealing with the person who is the weakest link of the propaganda chain.
dan friesen
Yeah.
So at this point, Carrie is doing this live because she tried to record it, not live.
She tried to do it, and the file disappeared.
She thinks that that's some sort of nefarious interference by aliens or whatever.
jordan holmes
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
She has Bell's policy.
Whatever.
dan friesen
No, it's that she...
jordan holmes
Her computer has Bell's palsy.
unidentified
Whatever.
dan friesen
There's some...
Who cares?
jordan holmes
It's technically...
dan friesen
It's happened to us multiple times.
jordan holmes
We've lost an episode or two.
dan friesen
It's not the aliens.
jordan holmes
Yeah.
dan friesen
So, because she's doing it live, there are a bunch of people in the stream, and she gets one question that I think is the most important question that has ever been asked on Project Camelot livestream.
Here's her response.
kerry cassidy
So, let's see.
No, Mark Richards is not lying.
So, you know.
Let's see.
dan friesen
Okay.
The question was just, is this guy lying to you?
jordan holmes
Is this guy lying to you?
dan friesen
No.
jordan holmes
No.
Because you making me think about that.
I'm going to keep talking.
dan friesen
That's unpleasant.
It's not great to think about.
jordan holmes
Oh my god, I don't want to think about it.
dan friesen
Anyway, Jordan.
We've come to the end of this Mark Richards adventure.
I think we've learned a lot.
Do you understand?
I think that maybe you can appreciate, when I said at the beginning of this episode, the first time I listened through it, I thought it was kind of like, it's not as salacious as a lot of the times.
Because there's not those big reveals of like, oh.
jordan holmes
Yeah, I suppose.
unidentified
The first time we encountered the raptors, that was big.
dan friesen
The first time we...
jordan holmes
I mean, you're dead into it, because you've listened to hours upon hours of it, whereas I've only listened to the clips that you've curated for me, right?
unidentified
True.
jordan holmes
So even at my most Project Camelot-infused self, it is one one-hundredth of what it is you deal with.
So when you listen to this episode, you're like, bah, he's saying all this kind of shit, and I'm like, what the fuck are you talking about, light years?
Like, that kind of a thing.
dan friesen
Sure, sure, sure.
jordan holmes
So there's that.
dan friesen
Yeah, but even from my end, going back through this, I think there's so much in there.
I think there's a lot.
jordan holmes
I'm just missing Minerva.
unidentified
I think that only Joanne cares about Minerva anymore.
dan friesen
Mark has lost that from his narratives.
jordan holmes
When Alex disappears into the ether, our next podcast needs to be called Missing Minerva, where we just talk about...
Where we think Minerva is right now.
dan friesen
We should do a bonus.
jordan holmes
And whether or not she's doing okay.
dan friesen
We should do a bonus.
jordan holmes
I'm concerned.
dan friesen
It's just you and me for an hour sitting around talking about what we think might be happening with Minerva.
jordan holmes
I'm going to be honest.
It would probably get more YouTube viewers.
dan friesen
Undoubtedly.
jordan holmes
Yeah.
dan friesen
Anyway, thank you all for listening.
We appreciate it.
I hope you enjoyed this.
Trip down Bullshit Avenue.
unidentified
Yeah!
Which is so unusual to what we normally do.
dan friesen
We'll be back on Friday with a nice, hot Alex Jones episode.
But until then, you can find us on our website, knowledgefight.com.
jordan holmes

What if you wanted to find us on a social network, Dan?
dan friesen
One on Twitter.
We are there at knowledge underscore fight.
jordan holmes
Name another social network.
dan friesen
Facebook!
jordan holmes
Name a smaller subsection of that social network.
dan friesen
I don't like how you describe it that way, but we have a group.
jordan holmes
I don't know how else to describe it.
dan friesen
You know what I mean?
I would say a cozy home within that social network.
jordan holmes
See, but it's kind of like a social network that's hosted by a larger social network that's mining all of our data for profit.
dan friesen
That is still there.
But it's called Go Home and Tell Your Mother You're Brilliant.
jordan holmes
Indeed it is.
dan friesen
You can find us there.
