2:03

Okay, let's get this Austin Sago's episode started,

2:06

shall we?

2:31

The Austin

2:36

Sago's

2:40

49 Sago 366 million years ago. Record has ended.

2:47

Part 4. To

3:31

keep things secret from the masses. Yeah,

3:34

I had alarm bells going off too. I

3:37

can't help but think of dictatorships and

3:39

shades of Orwell's 1984, with

3:41

a clandestine group deciding what people

3:43

can and can't know. But

3:46

I don't want to just immediately jump to conclusions

3:48

here. There's probably a lot more going on that I

3:50

don't have a clue about, let alone understand.

3:53

And my one data point is the Austin Sago's.

3:56

Would I want everyone knowing about the existence of

3:58

the town of Austin and the Austin network? No

4:01

bloody way. So let's see what

4:03

Harport has to say next. Message

4:07

continues.

4:09

Very well. Now we move on to your second

4:11

question. Has the Conclave always

4:13

remained both secretive and powerful?

4:16

Well, the easy answer to this is yes. But

4:19

I know you wish for more. And to do so,

4:21

I need to go into more detail about

4:23

the goals of the Conclave and how

4:25

it's altered over time. The

4:28

secrets those first members of the Conclave

4:30

kept to themselves were not of strange

4:32

gods and magics, as you might think.

4:35

Although they were to do with

4:37

a system of beliefs that the ordinary people

4:39

of the time would simply not comprehend,

4:43

these were the beginning days of the

4:45

genesis of empirical fact and trial

4:47

by experimentation.

4:49

Much credence and credit is

4:51

given to the Renaissance as the birth of

4:53

science and factual belief. And before

4:56

that, they looked to ancient Baghdad and the Muslim

4:58

people. Then the ancient Greeks

5:00

before.

5:01

Yes, each of these people and civilizations

5:04

made important strides in the sciences, but the

5:07

troopers of science and not believing

5:09

in a higher being controlling all

5:11

that goes on around you begins here. In the

5:14

very ancient time, the Conclave.

5:16

Of course, the ordinary people

5:18

of the time believed in many gods

5:21

and the power they wielded over them, as

5:23

well as their ability to orchestrate events. If

5:26

they were told by the Conclave that there

5:29

is an apparent invisible force that exerts

5:31

the power of everything and causes

5:33

objects to both remain on the ground and fall

5:36

back to the ground at a specific rate, that has

5:39

nothing to do with any deity, they

5:41

would be laughed at by all.

5:43

And then perhaps ostracized if things

5:46

to return to the wars and finally executed

5:48

if matters really became clear.

5:50

So they kept these proven and verifiable

5:53

findings within the minds and mouths of

5:55

the Conclave. Nothing was committed

5:58

to sting. No words or theories written.

Hi everyone. Steve here from the sunny rock of Gibraltar,

11:38

aka the Ostium Network.

11:40

I'm bored so to keep myself entertained I've

11:43

been listening to fictional podcasts. One

11:45

show that's turned into quite the long and wild ride

11:47

is called Well Be Gone. It's about this

11:50

bloke called Mike Walters. He finds

11:52

an online game called, yep, you

11:54

guessed it, Well Be Gone. But the

11:56

game turns out to not just be mysterious, but

11:58

pretty violent. and things just go from

12:00

bad to worse for Mike with each stage, yet

12:03

he keeps on going. Tough thing

12:05

is, what he does in the game has real life

12:07

consequences. Yeah, it's a real

12:09

mind trip. Eventually things go beyond

12:12

playing the game to find out how the game was actually

12:14

made. It's like jumping down a rabbit

12:16

hole, except you never want to find your way back.

12:19

You just want to keep getting sucked in deeper

12:21

and deeper. Once again, it's

12:23

called Woebegone, and you can find it wherever

12:25

you get your podcasts, or just check out

Cheers!
