So, I mentioned on the,

0:03

uh, the F***ing Face podcast the other day that

0:06

I've realized and decided that

0:08

I no longer believe in

0:10

Bigfoot. Many of you probably

0:12

say that it was ridiculous that I ever

0:14

did believe in a Bigfoot, uh, and

0:17

I guess I would tend to agree with you. However,

0:19

I would counter by saying,

0:22

do you know how much fun it is

0:24

to believe in shit? Like, honestly, Bigfoot,

0:27

aliens, Atlantis,

0:30

Loch Ness Monster, ghosts, the

0:32

whole thing. It's way more

0:34

fun to believe that shit

0:37

than not believe it. And

0:39

I, uh, I

0:42

like to have fun, right? What can I say? I,

0:44

uh, anyway, this is gonna go, uh, this

0:47

is gonna be like dominoes falling through my life,

0:49

uh, throughout the course of this, as I, as

0:51

like, as my, uh, discovery

0:54

that I no longer believe in Bigfoot, uh,

0:57

knocks down some walls for me, unfortunately.

1:00

Uh, first off, I don't

1:03

know why I don't believe in Bigfoot anymore. I

1:05

mean, I guess I do. Like, if I think

1:07

about it, I can understand the reasons why someone

1:09

would or wouldn't, well, I can

1:11

understand the reasons why someone wouldn't believe in

1:13

Bigfoot. But I'm still kind

1:15

of sad about it, you know? Sure,

1:18

it's dumb. The idea

1:20

that there's

1:23

a hidden species of animal out there,

1:26

that is so standoffish and,

1:28

uh, the bigger than humans, right? Like

1:30

some sort of evolutionary link between probably

1:32

humans and, uh, a

1:34

thousand different evolutions, uh, throughout our history.

1:37

I don't even, I don't even know

1:39

where they all fit together anymore, because

1:41

they keep discovering new, uh, like new

1:43

iterations, along the evolutionary

1:45

chain, you know? And that it's, uh,

1:47

it's somehow survived by hiding,

1:49

I guess, in, in national forests

1:52

and caves, which

1:54

I listen, I get it. Now, our, not

1:57

even speaking about the rest of the world, right? Just in

1:59

America alone, our national... Forests are so

2:01

big that trying to find a

2:04

Bigfoot especially if it's a small population Would

2:08

be like finding a needle in a

2:10

haystack factory, right? I get

2:12

it, but also and I think

2:15

what killed me and it wasn't like an inciting incident

2:17

I just woke up one day and in

2:19

much like do you ever have that thing where your

2:21

brain just? Does

2:24

something for you with or without you wanting it to

2:26

I don't know if that makes sense But I can

2:28

I'll give you an example. I actually have two examples

2:30

They're the only two examples. I think I have that

2:32

this has happened to me But when I

2:34

was I was 18 or 19 I

2:37

was in the common area in

2:40

the barracks at Fort Hood where I was stationed for

2:43

public affairs detachment and I was shooting pool in like

2:45

I said in the common area by myself I was

2:47

pretty I liked pull I used to shoot a lot

2:49

of pool and I was practicing

2:51

some shots and For some

2:53

reason like the balls just stuck out to me for

2:55

a second and it and I paused like

2:58

involuntarily I just kind of paused and found that I

3:00

was just staring at the balls intently and I didn't

3:02

really there was like some sort of a thing going

3:04

on there and I was just like And

3:08

then like a light bulb went off

3:10

on my head or not like a

3:12

light bulb like a finger snap like that and And

3:14

I went oh I don't know how to

3:17

juggle now and I picked up three balls and

3:19

I had never once in

3:21

my life attempted to juggle before

3:23

and I picked up these three balls through

3:26

pool pool balls and I juggled it Rudimental

3:28

rudimentary right like it wasn't a great juggler

3:30

and I still not and I can only

3:32

juggle one way But I just I just

3:34

knew instantly like something happened where my subconscious

3:36

Was like working on it in the background and then it

3:38

just was like zeroed in on those pool balls and said

3:40

hey Pay pay attention to this. I'm

3:43

working on something here. It's fucking awesome The

3:46

next time that happened to me I think

3:48

I was like 32 or 33 and I

3:50

have hated spicy food my entire life I

3:52

grew up with a grandfather

3:54

who loved spicy food so much

3:56

He had a pepper garden and

3:58

he would grow like like 10

4:00

different kinds of peppers. He

4:03

would eat them with every single meal.

4:06

He brought a little tiny Tupperware

4:08

container with him and he would

4:10

have his jalapenos and his habaneros

4:13

and his like scotch bonnets or whatever and then he

4:15

would have these things called seven-year peppers that were his

4:17

favorite. They were like the size of like

4:21

almost like sugar peas and

4:24

they fucking were so hot. They were tiny and they

4:26

were so goddamn hot and I ate one when I

4:28

was a kid and I was like, that's it. I

4:31

don't think I touched spicy food again for probably 20 years

4:34

but I just I grew up hating spicy food and I was

4:36

around people that loved it I guess the point I'm trying to

4:38

make and one day I was at the movies and I might

4:40

have been with Gus. I don't remember but I was at the

4:42

movies I was like 32, 33, I was 32 and somebody got

4:47

nachos around me and I was looking at

4:49

the jalapenos on the nachos and my brain

4:51

just did the exact same thing and

4:54

it said, hey, pay attention. There's something

4:56

going on here. I'm working on something. You

4:59

like jalapenos now? I

5:01

had never in my life craved a

5:03

jalapeno. I had tried them many times.

5:06

I had some friends that were really

5:08

into spicy food that I had a

5:10

friend that got really, really into spicy food and tried to bring

5:12

me along for the ride and I was, you know, I would

5:14

try every once in a while and I

5:16

fucking hated it. I hated spicy food. I didn't like the

5:18

flavor. I didn't like the spice and

5:21

then that in that moment I

5:23

discovered I now liked out of

5:25

the blue. I now like

5:28

jalapenos and then suddenly I couldn't eat

5:30

spicy enough food and then I was

5:32

on the journey. We've got

5:34

a store in Austin called Tears of Joy that just

5:36

sells hot sauces and rubs and I started going there

5:38

every week and trying to find something hotter and newer

5:41

and exploring and then I was like, I was like

5:43

four or five, six years where I just got tried

5:45

to get hotter and hotter and hotter and tried to

5:47

build up my stamina and I couldn't ever like satiate

5:49

that and then it leveled off. I

5:51

think it probably helped that I met somebody like Adam

5:54

Baird who has a tolerance that

5:57

fucking dwarfs mine. I

6:01

you you you think you're a badass and you meet your match I

6:03

guess but also I just I just kind of like I Don't

6:05

know though the flame died out. I still like spicy

6:08

food. I still enjoy it I like it way more

6:10

than when I didn't like it, but I'm certainly not

6:12

Obsessed with it in the way that I was there

6:15

for a few years Oh, you

6:17

know what I think it happened one other time

6:19

not a lot less fanfare a lot less exciting

6:21

than learning how to juggle Or eating spicy food,

6:23

but one day I I just my brain told

6:25

me I liked raisins and so maybe

6:28

36 and Since then

6:30

I've been eating the shit out of raisins. I've you

6:32

know never had any interest in

6:35

raisins before that day anyway Boy,

6:37

did we get on and off-ramp? Where was

6:39

I going with that? Oh, so I woke

6:41

up and I just my brain told me

6:43

You don't believe in Bigfoot anymore. I didn't

6:45

like watch a report or a tick-tock or

6:47

read something on reddit I just woke up

6:49

one day and my brain said hey We're

6:52

done with Bigfoot that things over and I was

6:54

really kind of bummed about it and I looked

6:56

into it and I thought Like now maybe I

6:59

can trick myself and I can convince myself to

7:01

get back into Bigfoot I couldn't not that I

7:03

was ever like hugely into Bigfoot mind you I

7:05

was way more into ghosts and aliens still am

7:07

way more Into aliens than I ever was into

7:09

Bigfoot I just think it's fun the idea that

7:11

there's this mountain monster running around that's an you

7:14

know an evolutionary link to the past It's just

7:16

it's it's exciting but uh Not

7:18

anymore I guess and I don't

7:20

know why I just it's like my brain will no

7:22

longer allow me to consider it as

7:24

a possibility Pragmatically I get

7:26

it because if I think about it, we

7:29

know so much about the world right

7:31

now We have technology that's

7:33

outpacing our understanding of how to use

7:36

it It's insane what we're

7:38

able to discover about the world

7:40

right now with LIDAR and radar

7:43

and written satellite Imaging and

7:45

like Google Earth. We're uncovering civilizations left

7:47

and right We're learning that we had

7:50

figured shit out wrong and then we're

7:52

correcting it. It's in I read

7:54

an article the other day actually That

7:57

We understand the pyramids. Like

8:00

why they were built. The secrets inside

8:02

of them. What's there to use? His

8:04

arm? And by the way, I don't

8:06

think we really understand the pyramids all

8:09

that well. But scientists now think that

8:11

we understand the pyramids better in Twenty

8:13

Twenty Four than Cleopatra did when see

8:15

rained in Egypt and that might sound

8:18

in Italy insanely right. The think about

8:20

it, she rolled in Egypt from I

8:22

think sixty one to Thirty B C

8:24

with I. When. I was a

8:26

kid. ya? is that B? C. Stuff.

8:29

For before Christ but the clinic I

8:31

learned that it would didn't but there's

8:33

bc Nbc Linscott the bottom of arrow

8:35

fucking fast before com and area. okay

8:37

before current christian area or it's A

8:39

B C vs. Is

8:41

Bc now called. Okay, ah.

8:43

Do they B C is more Sigma

8:46

missing eighty these Okay, it's a more

8:48

inclusive way of saying bc gotta ah

8:50

I see suck in lived. From.

8:54

Night Live That's not correct see

8:56

Rained Sold Egypt from Fifty one

8:58

to Thirty B, C or Bc.

9:00

Ah that was hooked it up.

9:03

That. Was seven hundred and I asked him

9:05

by the as you will how long ago

9:07

was was thirty B C and Google just

9:09

tell me the days and saw his he

9:11

was seven hundred Forty That thousand Eight hundred

9:14

Sixty Six days. So foods like that. And

9:16

as I had to do the math myself,

9:18

that is patently two thousand and sixty four

9:20

years ago. So she ruled Egypt two thousand

9:22

and fifty four years ago. However,

9:26

When she ruled Egypt, the pyramids

9:28

were already old as fuck. They

9:30

were built like at twenty six

9:33

hundred B C. So. Technically,

9:35

that's more time between when they

9:38

were built in see rained than

9:40

when see rains. And.

9:42

We exists now like we're

9:44

closer to Cleopatra than Cleopatra

9:46

was to. Ah to the

9:48

pyramids being built and so.

9:51

Then what the fuck they were for?

9:53

I mean they had you know scrolls

9:55

and shit but everything gets lost to

9:57

to time especially back then when they.

10:00

Didn't have the ability to preserve information the

10:02

same ways that we do now, but that

10:04

really kinda fucked me up because. To.

10:06

Think about the fact that we're now five

10:08

thousand years from the pyramids being built. some

10:10

of them longer to the we understand them

10:12

better than her because the technology. If we

10:15

have that kind of technology. Don't.

10:17

You think we'd have found some

10:19

big foot bones or lakes and

10:22

fossilized big foot stools. aura nest

10:24

or like some rudimentary tools are

10:26

fuckin' anything. Like I like I

10:28

said I understand that a that

10:31

that that are a wilds are

10:33

vast but come on man with

10:35

everything that we have you can't

10:37

tell me google earth wouldn't the

10:40

sound a little bigfoot form somewhere

10:42

in the middle of late I

10:44

know the Yukon where they're all

10:46

fucking. Sit around a fire. You

10:49

know, clean and bones and shit at. I

10:52

can't believe that that wouldn't. Have been

10:54

discovered. I can't believe that this far into.

10:57

Human existence is a big existed.

11:01

we we wouldn't have some sort of or

11:03

record about it. So.

this podcast. Alright. If you're

14:41

an athlete, you know the greatest motivator of

14:43

all is the fear of letting your teammates

14:45

down. After all, a team is

14:47

only as good as its weakest link. So

14:49

you owe it to those wearing the same jersey

14:51

as you to be your best every time you

14:53

step on the field. That's why there's no vape

14:56

in team. When you vape,

14:58

you can expose your lungs to toxic

15:00

chemicals that can damage your lungs. If

15:03

you're a step behind, the team's a

15:05

step behind. Brought to you

15:07

by the real cost and the FDA. And

15:14

that's what kind of fucked me up and

15:17

sent the the the dominoes falling because that

15:19

got me thinking. What

15:21

else probably isn't real? I'm not

15:24

ready to throw in the talent talent

15:26

aliens now, especially now when things are

15:28

just so interesting and we're looking so

15:30

intently at the stars and really trying

15:33

to to explore them again. That leaves

15:35

like the Loch Ness Monster and ghosts. And I don't really

15:37

give a shit about the Loch Ness Monster one way or

15:39

the other. But ghosts,

15:42

man, I've been believing in ghosts

15:44

my whole life. I saw a ghost when I

15:46

was a kid. But I got to thinking,

15:49

how many people have died?

15:53

Like across all

15:55

of existence? I looked it

15:57

up. I'll let you guess for a second if you want

15:59

to get that. This right now there

16:01

are eight billion people on earth today

16:03

eight billion people alive today How

16:06

many people do you think in throughout the course of human

16:08

existence? And obviously we don't have census data that

16:10

goes back to the beginning of time. So a lot of

16:12

it is Estile

16:16

all of it is estimated but you know science

16:19

is a pretty fucking smart So I think it's you

16:21

know, we've got some pretty solid estimates. The

16:23

answer is a hundred and nine billion people Think

16:26

about that 109 billion people have lived and died on the planet

16:28

earth a

16:33

lot of people 117

16:36

billion people have

16:39

existed so That's

16:41

basically a hundred and that's basically a hundred and

16:43

nine billion people plus the eight billion that are

16:45

alive today, right? So you get a hundred and

16:48

seventeen that think about that 117 billion

16:50

people have existed on this

16:53

planet throughout history 109

16:56

billion that's like 98 percent or something

16:58

97 percent of those people are fucking dead

17:01

Where's all the ghosts? When

17:04

I had that realization in my head the

17:06

other day. I Got

17:08

so fucking sad because I I

17:12

Had a ghost hunting show. That's

17:14

one of the highest production value things Rooster

17:16

Teeth has ever done and We

17:19

did two seasons of it. We went all

17:21

over the United States. We went to England

17:25

and we went to Australia. We covered

17:27

the world hunting ghost. We had weird

17:29

shit happen Jeremy in Louisiana

17:32

got scratched by a demon. I'm like 98

17:34

percent sure but be

17:36

just the sheer thought of 109

17:40

billion people having died and There

17:44

being like a few ghosts around like

17:46

come on even if like what is a tenth

17:48

of a percent of 109 billion people? What

17:51

is a god damn I do math

17:54

so even if a tenth of

17:56

a percent of the people that have lived

17:58

on this earth Our

18:01

ghosts like dick everybody else Everybody

18:03

else went to heaven or hell or wherever they

18:06

they made their connections and they are and but

18:08

but like a tenth of a Percent that's such

18:10

an infinitesimally small amount in the grand scheme of

18:12

things that would be a

18:14

hundred and nine million ghosts It

18:18

would be so goddamn loud in

18:20

every house Every night

18:23

at midnight When the lights

18:25

go out and all the ghosts come

18:27

out and start knocking shit over and

18:29

start banging into stuff And starts whispering

18:31

and making the rooms cold

18:34

There would be a hundred and a

18:36

third of the population of America should

18:38

be out haunting the world right now

18:41

That's a lot of ghosts you would think if

18:43

there were a hundred and nine million ghosts and

18:45

we're just adding to the pile right like I

18:48

guess the only way to get rid of a ghost

18:50

or a demon or whatever would be to exercise it

18:52

or like Figure out how to

18:54

right the wrong that kept it on earth all these

18:56

years And I don't think there's a lot of people

18:59

that are running around trying to solve 150

19:02

year old murders or right wrongs or reconnect

19:04

like a doll with a dead Kid

19:07

or whatever requires to help these

19:09

entities move on to the other

19:11

life So it's just scaling growing

19:13

and growing and growing We're adding to the ghosts

19:15

every time people die and I'm just throwing out

19:18

one tenth of one percent It was probably way

19:20

higher right? They probably like a percent good Lord

19:22

That'd be a billion fucking people out there

19:24

haunting the eight billion alive people

19:26

You can have like a one in seven or one

19:28

in eight chance of being haunted which got me thinking

19:31

How many people have seen a ghost so I looked

19:33

that up and that answer

19:35

actually? Lend some Queens

19:37

to it. I think 18% of

19:40

Americans believe they've seen a ghost now We

19:42

have to take into consideration that that's just Americans and

19:45

Americans are pretty fucking dumb But

19:47

I'm one of them. I've had multiple

19:49

ghost experiences. I've only seen a ghost

19:52

once but but I

19:54

definitely did and 18

19:57

percent of Americans also think they've seen ghosts which

19:59

is You know, that's a pretty

20:01

high number. Uh, also two-

20:04

two and five people, they say, believe ghosts

20:06

are real. I'm just having trouble

20:08

with this number though. It's too many

20:10

ghosts. I'm sorry, it's

20:12

just too- ghosts can't be real, or

20:15

there'd be too fucking many of them. God,

20:17

that sucks. I really wanna believe

20:19

in ghosts. I saw a ghost!

20:22

I've never told you the story of when I saw a ghost- let

20:24

me tell you this story. I was- you know

20:26

what, I'm gonna look up the movie, cause I remember the movie

20:29

I saw. The Lone

20:31

Ranger. I can tell you exactly when I

20:36

saw a ghost. Well, it wasn't 1956. There

20:38

you go, Legend of the Lone Ranger, 1981. In

20:41

1981, I was six years old. My

20:45

parents, my mom and my stepdad at the time,

20:48

took me to see the Lone

20:50

Ranger. Oh, that was very good.

20:52

I remember thinking Tonto was way cooler than

20:54

the Lone Ranger. I remember thinking the Lone

20:57

Ranger was pretty fucking cool too. I don't

20:59

remember anything else about that movie, other

21:01

than their faces. I

21:04

can remember their faces. And thinking it

21:06

was pretty fucking rad. Anyway,

21:09

I'm living in Jacksonville, Florida, off the

21:11

St. John's River. And in

21:13

a swampy street,

21:16

like it just had like a green,

21:18

a lot of Spanish moss, a lot

21:21

of water moccasins. It's where my paralyzing

21:23

fear of snakes began. It

21:26

was actually a pretty fun little area to grow

21:28

up. But real fucking just like, I don't

21:30

know, man, kind of like midnight in the Garden of

21:32

Good and Evil vibes is how I remember

21:34

it when I lived there. So

21:36

we're staying in this house at the end

21:38

of a long street, like real woodsy. And

21:41

I only say that because it's all I remember about it. I

21:44

don't remember how old the house was. It could have been

21:46

100 years old. It could have been 20 years old. I

21:48

don't remember. I kind of remember the layout enough to describe

21:50

what I'm telling you. But

21:52

I don't really remember anything else about the

21:54

home, other than that there used to be

21:56

snakes under the front porch. to

22:00

go up on this deck to get into the house. And

22:02

I saw a snake like two or three times under there

22:04

and it made it hard for me to go into the

22:06

house sometimes because I was fucking terrified. However,

22:10

we go to see the Lone Ranger and

22:13

I'm fucking flying high from seeing

22:16

that probably, coming home with

22:19

my mom and my dad this night. You know,

22:21

it was a nighttime movie. It's probably like on

22:23

a Friday, Saturday night I think. And they, I

22:25

remember my mom or whoever, my stepdad opens the

22:27

door and I run

22:30

into the house. And when you walked into that

22:32

house, you walk into the house and it's like

22:34

a sideways hallway where you can turn left and

22:36

go to the bedrooms. Yeah,

22:38

bedrooms and bathrooms. And then on the right,

22:41

it goes to the kitchen and maybe like

22:43

laundry room or garage, I believe. And

22:45

then there's just a

22:47

wall in front of you, but behind the wall is like a

22:50

sunken in living room area. And there's like a door, a little

22:52

bit down on the left and a door a little bit, not

22:54

even doors, just like opening areas, a little bit door on the

22:56

right. I hope I'm explaining that, right? It's almost

22:58

like you walk in the front of the house and it's sideways

23:00

and you just walk into a, in the middle of a hallway

23:03

and you can turn left or turn right. And

23:05

then if you turn left or right, either way, a couple

23:07

of feet in, there's a cutout that lets you go into

23:09

the sunken and living room. And I

23:11

remember my mom and my dad, they walked in,

23:14

I remember the keys jangling and they walked

23:16

in and they went to the kitchen probably

23:18

to like grab a drink or fucking no,

23:20

whatever they were doing, maybe checking the voicemails

23:22

on the phone or something. And

23:24

if God, in 81, did we have

23:26

a voicemail machine? Probably not.

23:30

I would have probably been before that. I don't know,

23:32

interesting. Well, anyway, so

23:35

they go that way and I

23:37

walk towards my bedroom. So I

23:40

go to the left the other way. And as I'm

23:42

walking in the corner of my eye, I see somebody

23:44

in that cutaway, I see somebody in

23:46

the living room. I turn and I look and

23:48

there is a lady with dark hair and

23:51

some sort of a robe on her that

23:53

I don't recognize, but that's really kind Of

23:56

sparkly and gold and tassily in

23:59

my head. What I'm

24:01

seeing is a woman whose

24:03

maybe Indian or Pakistani and

24:05

who's kind of dress traditionally

24:07

and will a dark hair

24:09

and like the little. With.

24:12

A little fabric thing over her

24:14

forehead with some. The. Lead to

24:16

some beating on it and like

24:18

a sarong there something the goes

24:21

over her side and I'd put

24:23

her anywhere between. Thirty. Five

24:25

and sixty years old. I'm.

24:28

And. She is sitting. With.

24:30

Our hands in her lap. On

24:33

the arm of like a lazy

24:35

boy or luggage. The chair Like

24:37

a big puffy chair. She

24:39

just like potter squat on the or I'm just

24:42

gonna sit in there with her hands and laps

24:44

and she's looking at me. just say anything says

24:46

look at me and I caught. By

24:48

surprise. first off because or somebody in the

24:50

house that I don't recognize and secondly because

24:52

she's dressed very strangely. I don't think I

24:55

had seen ah, an Indian person. Or

24:58

ah, a person just like that. I

25:00

should say at that point my life

25:02

yet certainly not in middle of lower

25:04

bump like southern America. read. And.

25:07

So I was it. until a couple years later

25:09

than I saw some somebody in a movie or

25:11

something. A lot of fuck, that's what the lady

25:14

was wearing. Now I understand how she was dressed

25:16

and I realized years later what was. I just

25:18

didn't understand that time And so I saw her

25:20

and she looked at me and we just made

25:23

eye contact his classroom and I was still in

25:25

the hallway and my first instinct as a kid

25:27

was just a goat or right like I. So

25:29

I walked into the rumor walking down and I

25:32

was up to her. I got like maybe ten

25:34

feet from earth. Eight feeds on without when she

25:36

just sat there perfectly. Still looking at

25:38

me and I said there. Are

25:41

you are. You he? oh hi

25:43

are you here for my mom

25:45

and dad and she just kept

25:47

looking at me and suddenly I

25:49

doubt we'll nervous like I remember

25:51

get real kinda leads and feeling

25:53

relieved his threatened would be the

25:55

words and like she never said

25:57

anything to just looked at me.

26:00

What? The gays started to feel

26:02

really ominous and I felt like

26:04

I was in danger. I got

26:06

really fucking like. Like.

26:10

Intensely scared. I remember that like blood running

26:12

hold kind of spirit scarce and suddenly I

26:14

felt like I remember looking around like that.

26:16

my for free and to get Just like

26:18

with author. Who the fuck outta here right?

26:20

Anna and I said a ac at. It

26:23

can help you and she just kept looking at me and

26:25

so I screamed mom. Dad as lady and living

26:27

it's. And I just fucking ran toward the kitchen

26:29

to tell them I'll as you documentary get a

26:31

few minutes and then like we talking about my

26:33

bring him back and there's nobody there right? And

26:36

she was just gone and I never

26:38

saw her again and never had any

26:40

kind of paranormal experience in that house

26:42

Again, I never had another paranormal experience

26:44

and till I was in my in

26:46

my late twenties actually mid to late

26:48

twenties and I can maybe I'll tell

26:51

a ghost stories episode or something but

26:53

I had a bunch of weird shit

26:55

happened to me in the house I

26:57

owned when Millie was born and I'm.

27:00

Never. Saw anything. Just. Experienced

27:02

some weird things but I

27:05

never saw another. Quote.

27:07

Unquote Ghost ends. I

27:09

yeah I still get a look, we don't want

27:11

to think about it even to this day I

27:13

still see are pretty well in my mind. expose

27:16

can see the room pretty well is still ride

27:18

mostly. I can remember the feelings you know like

27:20

the can stick with yes but am don't really

27:22

have an answer for who that lady was. I

27:24

just I don't think she was a real lady

27:26

who walked into the house, got caught breaking in

27:28

or anything like that like it wasn't that by

27:30

the at all, she wasn't. Hurried

27:32

buy anything. It's.

27:35

Never moved. And.

27:37

When I left the room she didn't like

27:39

run out the house. There was no doors

27:42

opening and closing or anything like that so

27:44

she would I we I think she would

27:46

have been seen any like subs raising holy

27:48

hell when I started screaming and running into

27:50

the hallway and the and i ah I

27:53

guess I'll probably die never really understanding what

27:55

that was. Blood with

27:57

one hundred and nine billion people

27:59

dying. To sign a

28:01

hard to believe in ghosts really sucks.
