Something doesn't feel right about this house explosion in Virginia. (preview)
Hey Folks! It's December, also known as Peak Season for UPS drivers. Due to Alex's busy schedule this time of year, we're going Patreon-only for the month of December. We'll continue to put out weekly episodes for patrons and host DEATH CHAT 500 on Saturdays. Sign up at http://patreon.com/miniondeathcult to continue getting content served to your podcast app all year long, otherwise we'll see you in 2024. ---------------------- TODAY: We dive into the story the news won't show you: a widely-reported video of a Virginia man's house exploding. People are citing his unstable linkedin posts as proof he was onto something big, and even posing as him posthumously in order to get the message out there: Something is not normal. ALSO: We examine the recent spate of "campus antisemitism," which is bad enough to bring the presidents of Ivy League schools in front of congress, but not bad enough to have any examples of the antisemitism. We connect this to several recent instances of Israel supporters distributing Hamas propaganda "ironically" and sometimes deliberately attributing it to pro-Palestinian student groups.
The liberals are destroying California and conservative humor gone awry.
Conservative humor gone awry is going to fascistphonia today.
So stay tuned.
We're going to take a few pictures of the desert and how their policies are actually messing it up.
It's not beautiful when you go across that corner.
Stay tuned, guys.
We'll show you exactly what it looks like.
Let's go to the desert.
All their remarkable stuff.
Stay tuned.
I'm Alexander Edward.
And I'm Tony Boswell.
And we are Minion Death Cult.
The world is ending.
Exploding houses are responsible.
We're documenting it, folks.
It could happen to you.
You could post the wrong thing on social media and then the Feds come, the Alphabet Boys come and explode your frickin' house.
I live in constant fear of my house exploding.
Like some people think, oh no, did I leave a candle lit?
I'm always worried that I'm going to come home to just A crater.
We are accidentally actually live, so I should probably end this stream now.
Sorry, everybody.
You got to you got to peak, but that's all you're getting.
All right.
We're back.
Hello, everybody.
Happy holidays.
Happy Hanukkah.
Happy upcoming Christmas.
Kwanzaa.
All that stuff.
Whatever you celebrate.
This person, a person in Virginia, I think Arlington, Virginia, chose to celebrate the holidays in a far different way by exploding his house, which is like a little attention seeking, if you ask me.
You know, it's like Jesus Christ, the the floodlights on some of these Christmas decorations and shit is enough.
But man, a mushroom cloud?
No, thanks.
Yeah, these Christmas lights are just getting out of hand and it's way too early to set that off.
I mean, you should have waited like the week of Christmas, you know, maybe we could have set up maybe one of those ones where you drive through the neighborhood and we can listen over the radio with a song that corn spawns with the explosion.
Like if you're going to go hard, let's let's do it.
Let us let us let us be part of the festivities with you.
Uh, so we're joking.
I, you know, I don't think this guy was really celebrating Christmas or something when he blew up his house or when the house blew up.
Um, but I do have a question.
Was he maybe writing like pro Gaza poetry?
Before his house blew up?
Cause that could, that could shed some light on the situation.
What?
And it was like just too fire?
It was like just too good?
Was he, uh, trying to perform, uh, life-saving amputations on children without, without any anesthesia?
Cause I mean that could, that could explain some things.
Yeah, like, yeah, it does seem there's a trend of missiles finding those places right now.
I'm pretty sure where you're going with that that you're talking about is like spitting hot fire like bars.
Oh, right.
Oh, never mind.
This is this is a much this is a much real sad thing.
Yeah, no, it's a house exploded in Virginia and astute observers like Morgan here on Twitter says something doesn't feel right about this explosion in Virginia.
This isn't normal.
Question everything.
It's funny because, like, yes, if you see this, I would, my reaction was, oh man, this is, this is unusual.
I wonder what happened.
Not me.
This is kind of similar to, this isn't normal.
Question everything.
I'm going to get a bumper sticker that says not normal.
It's referring to the house exploding in Arlington, Virginia.
With the address of the address.
And like everyone just knows what that is.
This is not normal.
Do not normalize this house exploding.
That's what they want you to do.
They want you to look at this and go, yep, just another day.
Another day in America.
No, I think 3842 Arlington Ave.
I'm the I'm the guy who who felt right about this explosion.
I'm the guy who's like, yeah, no.
Yeah, that house was going to go soon.
Yeah, you were like, no, I think this has something more.
I think this is holiday cheer.
I think this is what happens.
You know, it's a it's a time of giving back the time of time of sacrifice.
And, you know, it's love.
Haven't had a house explode in a while.
Seems like we're due for one is what I was thinking before this.
It's true.
There's no way they figured out gas leaks.
That's the last one.
I mean, come on.
This isn't normal.
Listen, if you vote for houses exploding and then your house explodes, that's what you get.
Yeah, I wonder if I could work on like, I don't know.
Is she live her whole life this way?
Is she kind of like, is everything that's like abnormal?
Like what if you're like one of Morgan's lovers, you know?
And you do something that's a little out of pocket, you know, you suck a toe, you know, and then she's like, wait, that's not normal.
And then she just starts grilling you.
What information can you get from my toe?
What was that about?
Question everything.
No, yeah, I don't think we should ever question a house exploding.
That's just what they do.
It's normal.
It's interesting you ask whether or not Morgan is like this in general.
This is Morgan who apparently works for Turning Point USA, Charlie Kirk's college, you know, young influencer, young hip conservative crowd, because they have the Turning Point USA badge next to their blue check.
Have twice as much dog shit that people used to make fun of.
Has Elon gotten back to us for getting the Minion Death Commandos badge approved?
He said he wanted money for it.
Oh, never mind.
I thought we were going to pay him in exposure.
Yeah, uh, Morgan, uh, recently when I found this tweet only because she went viral with another tweet that I think you've seen, Tony.
Uh, we're more gone, more gone.
It's both spelled and stylized, all caps, more gone.
It was like a young white girl, you know, a young white woman, like probably a 23 year old white woman in like a wood, like a, uh, I thought it was a leather jacket, but no, it's like a reflective blazer, like power suit thing.
Anyway, Morgan says, was almost trafficked today dot dot dot dot.
Ladies, always be aware of your surroundings.
I was getting my nails done and saw this on my passenger door handle empty and perfectly placed.
Classic kidnapping and trafficking tactic to distract you!
Three exclamation points.
So scary!
I'm home safe now!
And the videos of her showing an empty Reese's wrapper to the camera that somebody stuffed in her door handle.
Yeah.
