Welcome to a new exhilarating episode of "Adam's Archive," where curiosity meets revelations. I'm your host, Austin Adams, and today's journey is nothing short of a rollercoaster through the corridors of hidden truths and uncovered secrets. Brace yourself as we plunge into the labyrinth of the Epstein saga, unraveling over 10,000 pages of jaw-dropping legal documents. Unearth the names and narratives that have remained shrouded in mystery, from Bill Clinton to Stephen Hawking, and discover the startling revelations that emerged from these files. Next, we navigate through an extraordinary incident at a shopping mall, where reports of 8 to 10-foot tall beings have sparked a storm of speculation. Was it merely a scuffle between youths, or something far more mysterious and ancient? We delve into the enigmatic world of the Nephilim, the legendary giants of biblical lore, and explore the intriguing passages and contemporary discussions about these colossal figures. This episode isn't just a podcast; it's a quest for understanding the unknown and the misunderstood.

Now, let's jump into it!   All the Links: Https://linktr.ee/theaustinjadams Substack: Https://Austinadams.Substack.com   ----more---- Full Transcription    Adams archive.  Hello, you beautiful people and welcome to the Adams archive. My name is Austin Adams, and thank you so much for listening today. On today's episode, we're going to be discussing the two single craziest events that have kicked off our 2024  year.  The first one being that Epstein's documents, I think it was over 10, 000 pages of legal documents were just dropped  over four different days. Listing off the names of several, several people, almost all of them. We've talked about here. I've done, you know, more than a year ago, I did a serious deep dive into all the Epstein documents, the flight logs, the black book. I posted it all. It's on my sub stack. You can go find it right now,  but there's some things  that I don't think that we knew yet that came out about this, not that much though. There was a few names. There was a few.  Really  scathing words that came out, some about Bill Clinton, some about Stephen Hawking, hmm,  some really interesting stuff. So we're going to dive into all of that. What were the most notable things that were discussed about this? Who were the five most important or powerful people that were on this list? And then.  We'll go through the list in its entirety of the names, and I'll see how fast I can do it for you, because it was a lot.  After that, we're going to jump into another topic, which was that there was a bunch of, a bigger police presence than you've seen at every school shooting, at every  Black Lives Matter protest riot, at every January 6th, combined, at a single shopping mall. And apparently it was because these kids were having fights with sticks and fireworks.  Four children, four kids having  you know, violent acts with sticks.  But some people are saying that wasn't the actual reason why. Some people are saying that there was eight to ten foot tall beings that were attacking people. Now it's kind of a weird situation because there wasn't very much video evidence that came from the ground and there wasn't very many people talking about what happened on the inside. You know, today,  you have a Karen going off on a manager at Wendy's and there's always going to be a video of it. But we don't have any video footage of this. So it's pretty weird. But some people, which would lead us to our deep dive for today, have said that they believed this to be the Nephilim.  If you don't know what the Nephilim is, that is the ancient biblical beings that are said to be extremely large individuals. And we will dive into a whole deep dive of what those beings were the passages from the ancient and biblical texts that they were mentioned in. And  Some more recent discussions around them from even Tucker Carlson potentially alluding to these beings. So all of that and more, make sure you stick around, subscribe, leave a five star review, head over there, do it right now.

You can actually watch the video. See my beautiful face talking about all these things. See me actually pull up the articles right alongside me here.  Here  when I'm talking about those and watch the video clips with me and to see my real reactions So head over to YouTube the Adams archive find the channel there and I'll see you there All right, all of that more buff and  not but first that's what I got for you. Let's jump into it   The Adams archive.   Alright, so the very first topic that we're going to discuss today is going to be that there was the single largest document release regarding Epstein.  It happened over four days. And it, To me, this wasn't a huge deal. What I like about it is the fact that it brought attention back to the Epstein situation. Now, some people are arguing one way or the other, whether that's a good thing, whether it's a distraction from other things that are going on, whether it's an attempt to heighten the tensions of 2024 already leading up to the election cycle.  I don't know.  I think that it's probably  just.  a situation where there was a legal  court  judge that decided they were going to release these documents and then it just reignited the whole Epstein situation. I think that's probably the most likely situations here. I don't think it's a huge distraction. I don't think that these people want to throw everybody under the bus. But what I do know is that almost everybody who was on this list was already, Named  we already knew these names.  We already knew about Prince Andrew. We already knew about Bill Clinton. We already knew about Kevin Spacey We are the new even Stephen Hawking. We already knew these names, right? This isn't very much of this was already out there now. There were some details and some Snippets that have gone viral that have had more of an emphasis on them as a result of these documents But I don't think that it was anything earth shattering.  So the first thing I want to do for you here I want to list the  Let's see, let me pull it up for you here.  I want to list the 90 names.  I want to list the 90 names that were on the Epstein list. In as quick as fashion as possible for you. So the 90 names in 90 seconds that were on  Epstein's list for you, and I'll speak fast, so try and keep up. But I just want to throw all these names out for you, because everybody's like, Where's the list? Where's the list? Where's the list? I don't see a list. I just see documents. Well, here you go. Here is the 90 names that were listed in 90 seconds. You can time me. I'm not exactly sure. Let's see. All right. We're at 2 minutes and 16 seconds. 2 minutes and 20 seconds. We'll begin.  Glenn Maxwell, Virginia Lee, Roberts, Garuff, Kathy Alexander. Okay. Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait. Let's go back.  Seeing that Virginia Garuff's name is on this list, I do want you to know that this list is not just the perpetrators. This list was, and this came out, there was like 170 names. It's like, no, this list is not just the names of the people that were the perpetrators. This list, Virginia Garuff is the one who's  legal case is the reason that this came out, and that's probably why she's number two on here behind Ghislaine Maxwell because it was Virginia Groff's legal case against Ghislaine Maxwell.  So, now that I've preempted that here, I will point out to you within this list some of the names that maybe were a little bit newer, but were always A part of this conversation we've been having for a while.  So here we go.  Ghislaine Maxwell. Virginia Garoff. Kathy Alexander. Miles Alexander. James Michael Ostrich. Philip Barton. Redacted. Number seven. Kate Blanchett. David Boyce. Laura Booth. Evelyn Boulette. Rebecca Boylan. Josh Brunner. Naomi Campbell. Carolyn Casey. Paul Cassell. Sharon Churcher. Bill Clinton, David Copperfield, Alexandra Cousteau, Cameron Diaz, Leonardo DiCaprio, Alan Dershowitz, Mr. Mona Deveson, Redacted, Bradley Edwards, Amanda Allison, Kimberly Espinoza, Jeffrey Epstein, Ann Farmer, Marie Farmer, Alexander Fakai, Crystal Figueroa, Anthony Figueroa, Luis Ferra,  Eric Ganney, Meg Garvin, Sheridan Gibson Butt.  Robert Garoff, Al Gore, Ross Bowe, Fred Graff, Philip Grudegren,  redacted. Shannon Harrison, Stephen Hawking, Virginia Hair, Victoria Hazel, Brittany Henderson, Brett Jeff, Michael Jackson,  Carol Roberts, Cass, Dr. Karen Kutikoff, Peter Listerman, George Lucas, Tony Lyons, Bob Meister, Jamie Melanson, Lynn Miller, Marvin Minsky, redacted. David Mullen, Joe Pagano, Mary Paluga, Jay Stanley Pottinger, Joseph Ricari, Michael Reiter, Jason Richards, Bill Richardson, Sky Roberts, Scott Rothstein, Forrest Sawyer, Doug Schoedl, Kevin Spacey, Cecilia Stein, Mark Tafoya, Brent Tindall, Kevin Thompson, Donald Trump, Ed Tunnel, Emma Vagan.  Kimberly Vaughn Edwards,  Kresenda Valase, Anthony Velardi, Martinez Velasquez, Vicki Ward, Jared Weinfeld, Courtney Weil, Bruce Willis. Daniel Wilson. Andrew Albert, Christians Edwards, duke of York.  There you go. There's your 90 names.  Now again, this is not the client list, right? This is a list of individuals.  That were a part of the documents in general, okay? So some of those people could have been victims, some of those people could have been listed for other reasons.  But, we know some of those names, not even all of those names are the ones that are, you know, have been brought up in the past. There's some really wild ones that have been brought up too. However, I would like to note that there were some ones that stuck out to me. David Copperfield was one that I don't remember exactly  discussing surrounding this  and he's been a big conversation starter around this. Another one is Al Gore. I don't remember Al Gore being another part of this,  before  from before the conversation.  And then another one is who has actually spoken out now is Cameron Diaz has come out to speak out against her name being on the list. Cameron Diaz came out and said that she has had never had any association whatsoever with Jeffrey Epstein. Well, my question would be where did her name come up on these documents, which I guess we could probably look a little bit further to see the actual legal documentation that has been brought up.  But  that's a we could dive into that in just a second here. So there are the 90 names of the individuals. Now let's see if there's anybody who commented on this.  Let's go ahead and see.  Somebody said these names were taken from transcripts of evidence given during Maxwell's trial. Being named means nothing without context, and even with context, the only thing it might spark is a police investigation into a name which is associated with a given incident or set of behaviors.  Alright.  I just saw the greatest thing about Stephen Hawking and I'm going to hold on to that because we're going to talk about Stephen Hawking in depth in just a minute. So I'm going to hold on to that one. So let's let's segue into this.  Okay. Now, another thing that's happened more recently is I believe his name is Andrew. Andrew Epstein has come out and did an interview with Tucker Carlson. going Let me see if I can pull that up. Andrew Epstein being the brother of Jeffrey Epstein said that he no longer believes that Jeffrey Epstein  committed suicide.  And so let's see if we can pull this up. Jeff, Andrew Epstein,  Tucker Carlson.  All right.  And so the reason that this is substantial is because Andrew Epstein is the only family that Jeffrey Epstein has. He's the only person that they should have been contacting as a result of this.  Now maybe I got Mark Epstein. There we go. Mark Epstein is the name  Not Andrew. Maybe I was thinking Prince Andrew for other reasons involved with Jeffrey Epstein, but I digress So let's go to the Tucker Carlson dot com to the Tucker Carlson Network  and read this it says  oh you did a whole episode with him  where he had a discussion with his brother Which I'm sure would be very interesting. So if you want to watch that head over to Tucker Carlson dot  but it's 26 minutes and I'm not going to  drag you through all of that. So that was the situation is that Andrew or Andrew again, Mark Epstein, Jeffrey Epstein, Bruce brother did a interview with, with Tucker Carlson and said that he no longer believes that his brother, Jeffrey was. The person was attempted suicide or committed suicide. He believes that there's something more nefarious about the situation, like everybody else in the world, to be fair.  There's a fair amount of people who too believe, I believe it was even Megyn Kelly came out just the last few days and said that we would be hearing from Jeffrey, she's, so to pre, what she said is that  We're going to be hearing a lot more about Jeffrey Epstein, Megyn Kelly said. We're going to be hearing not only a lot more about him or his case or the situation, but we're actually going to be hearing from Jeffrey Epstein himself.  This year said Megyn Kelly now, I'm not sure what that means to me That means that he's alive and well and is willing to speak out or at least maybe there's some files or videos That he has that were maybe some sort of  I don't know lost videotapes of him speaking about this Honeypot situation, and I think that's a deeper conversation that we should get into now is it seems to be somewhat of a misconception for people who haven't been following this for for as long as I have been in depth. I followed day by day, word by word. The Glenn Maxwell trials even prior to that with Jeffrey Epstein. Went into the black book. I have it on my sub stack. Austin Adams dot sub stack. com. You can go in there, go back through the files and find the black book  for Jeffrey Epstein, where it has the names and phone numbers of all of his associates, every known contact that he had in this book  with their phone numbers. Okay. But anyways, there's a lot of people who are. being privy to this situation now, who maybe weren't before, who don't understand the background. I mean, there's a lot of people who were following this this whole time who maybe just thought, Oh, it's just a bunch of elite pedophiles who are sick individuals and, and they just have a,  a  proclivity to underage individuals and they're just disgusting pedophiles. And, and yes, you would be correct. But also the reason that the, the, the, it goes much deeper than that.  Jeffrey Epstein, and I'll give you the synopsis fairly quickly, Jeffrey Epstein was with Ghislaine Maxwell, okay? Now Jeffrey Epstein, the financier, but very little people know where he got his money from, or his funding, to be a financier, right? And so, the speculation is that, in the correlation, the connections here, is that Jeffrey Epstein with Ghislaine Maxwell, Ghislaine Maxwell's dad, was an agent of the Mossad.  And the Mossad is the CIA of Israel, essentially,  and they're well known as the single most  the, the, the single most powerful and capable intelligence agency in the world, even more than the CIA, which should concern you in and of itself,  but the ties between Ghislaine Maxwell and The Mossad cannot be ignored. Her father  was an agent of the Mossad. Which leads me to believe that there's some connection here. Although, in, in, background piece for her father is that her father actually got pushed off of a yacht and murdered.  It was called an accident, I guess, so I can't say it was murdered, but the official thing is that it was an accident. But he fell off of a yacht and died, and that was the way that he died, which is a super mysterious, weird way to die.  Especially for such a high profile, high net worth individual.  Especially one associated with a foreign entity's intelligence community. You know, but I digress. So the situation is that the ties between Jeffrey Epstein and the Mossad cannot be ignored.  So you take that to its extent, and what people have realized now, and what we actually know from these documents that came out now, is that not only  Was Jeffrey Epstein tied to Mossad, but there was court documents stating blatantly that this was a black male scheme  to get Hollywood elites to get powerful politicians to get people within the highest levels of science and education  to  go and partake in these horrific activities  and then to have  The video evidence of them doing so, so that it could be used against them at will by foreign entities. Now, whether it's just the Mossad, which is what I believe,  or whether it goes further than that, which it very well may, because now we know that the CIA allegedly found all of these videotapes, and then they all went mysteriously missing. All the videotapes that they found, all the blackmail evidence, all of the VHS tapes of these horrific acts happening by these famous elite individuals suddenly went missing. How weird is that?  You know, after it had been raided by the CIA, I believe.  So  this is much deeper than just some guy with lots of money feeding elites, what they're looking for. This is, this is a high level intelligence agency act by a foreign entity being the Mossad of Israel,  the same Israel. Now this is, this is what should infuriate you more than almost anything about the Epstein situation is that you are funding.  What happened on Epstein Island? Did you know that  you are funding what happened on Jeffrey Epstein's Island,  because the individuals who are behind Jeffrey Epstein, Ghislaine Maxwell and Maxwell's father was the Mossad, the intelligence community behind Israel  and the Mossad  had.  All of this blackmail done on all of the most powerful people in the world so that they could control your reality from the movies that you watch to the universities that you go to, to the scientific journals that you probably don't read,  to the politicians who make the decisions on whether or not where our tax dollars go, the laws that are passed.  Who is, who is,  who is allowed to walk free through presidential you know, signatures.  All of that is being decided through blackmail. Through these honeypot schemes. And a honeypot scheme is basically where you send somebody who's extremely attractive to somebody who's in a position of power. And then you blackmail them by finding some video, photo, text message evidence of them doing something that they shouldn't be doing.  It's a well known tactic.  And it was executed perfectly. By an organization that you are funding. We are currently sending tax dollars to Israel.  Israel's intelligence agency  is the Mossad.  So you're telling me that our tax dollars were going to fund the very organization that was conducting these types of blackmail,  these types of blackmail on elites on Jeffrey Epstein's Island.  Yes, yes, that is what I'm telling you.  And if that doesn't disgust you,  you should get your head checked.  So,  that's a weird realization to me, right?  However, let's move on here, because there's some big names that we can discuss surrounding this, and I could go on and on and on about this honeypot scheme, but I, I, I believe That's exactly what happened. I still don't, I'm still not convinced, I should say.  I'm still not convinced,  that Jeffrey Epstein's dead.  I'm not. You can't convince me of that because there's no evidence.  Just the same way that they brought in, if you go back to the JFK files.  When JFK died, they brought in their own autopsy officials, they kicked everybody else out of the room, they brought in their own autopsy officials, and had their own private autopsy done with nobody around.  And it was funded by the very same organization  who's allegedly the ones who conducted the assassination.  Now, would you imagine  that in a situation where Jeffrey Epstein  In cahoots with these intelligence organizations that those very organizations were able to sneak him out the back door and put a body in a room and then sneak in an autopsy official to write the death certificate and say that it was Jeffrey Epstein. Oh, and by the way, it was also a suicide. Oh, and by the way.  These cameras that are literally everywhere in this jail  just just weren't working. Oh, and by the way, the security footage and the security guards that were supposed to be on on duty at the time fell asleep and they didn't even sign the documents that they were supposed to sign at the time that they were supposed to be there.  That's interesting.  Very interesting.  So, I'm not convinced that he's dead. There's been footage that has circulated about somebody who looked like him, but it looked like it was filmed on a potato, so I don't believe that may have, you know, could have, could have not been him. I believe it was actually footage from the island that was released more recently.  So,  let's look at some of these names that came up here, now that you understand a little bit of the background of what this was, and why nobody's being prosecuted. Well, nobody's being prosecuted because it was probably At the very least  and generously to say the word entrapment because these people you could never get anybody that I know to do these types of things. You never get me to do these types of things. So I don't think entrapment is the right word, but I think that they're afraid that if they would actually go after anybody that was on Epstein's list, if they went after anybody that was on Epstein's list, it would come full circle back around that the ones actually behind Epstein were the very intelligence agencies that our tax dollars are going to fund, whether it be the CIA or the Mossad.  That's all I'm saying.  All right. So here are the top five individuals. The top, not the top five, but the top five most powerful individuals that were on the most recent Epstein documents, starting with number five,  Alan Dershowitz,  a constitutional law professor at Harvard law school and one time impeachment lawyer for former president Donald Trump. Alan Dershowitz is well known in media circles, unsealed documents linked to the Jeffrey Epstein investigation. According to a 2014 court filing in the U. S. District Court, Southern District of Florida, Epstein instructed Jane Doe No. 3 to have sexual relations with Dershowitz on numerous occasions while she was a minor, not only in Florida, but also on private planes in New York, New Mexico, and the U. S. Virgin Islands. In addition to being a participant in the abuse of Jane Doe No. 3 and other minors, Let me share this with you if you're on YouTube with me, so you can actually see what I'm looking at here.  This article comes from  the Christian Post. All right? Tuesday, January 4th. So, it says that in addition to being a participant in the abuse of Jane Doe and other minors, Dershowitz was an eyewitness to other sexual abuse of many other minors by Epstein and several Epstein co conspirators, the court file alleges.  The filing also claims Dershowitz helped negotiate an agreement that provided immunity from federal prosecution in the Southern District of Florida, not only to Epstein, but also any potential co conspirators of Epstein, including himself. Now, this is one of the most egregious things about this ever about Epstein is that Alan Dershowitz, the lawyer,  and  if we go back, the former lawyer of  the impeachment lawyer for President Donald Trump.  was involved in getting immunity  for every one of the co conspirators in the state of Florida and Properly executed this and they tried to hide the evidence of this  This deal completely they tried to make sure that nobody knew that Epstein's co conspirators Would be getting off under the name of under the guidance of Alan Dershowitz.  So thus Dershowitz helped negotiate  An agreement with a provision that provided protection for himself against criminal prosecution in Florida for sexually abusing Jane Doe number three. Now this wasn't.  Outright said within the time because he just said anybody any of his co conspirators was what he negotiated this this Agreement,  but he was included in that little did they know which seems like a conflict of interest Dershowitz in a YouTube live stream following the release of the Epstein files acknowledged flying on the Lolita Express in his presence on the Epstein list. Of course, I'm on that list. I was his lawyer I flew on his plane said Dershowitz. I had an innocent relationship with a man who I didn't know  Nobody suspected had done anything wrong.  Yeah.  Okay. Dershowitz.  All right, number four  is this list pulls up here  Number four is going to be  none other  than,  dun dun dun,  come on load the Christian post.  Wow, that's brutal. You'd think I would internet from a,  third world country. Bill Richardson.  So number four on this list is Bill Richardson. Former U. S. Congressman, Ambassador, Secretary of Energy, and New Mexico Governor, Bill Richardson is among the names referenced in the newly listed documents. To Epstein. In a deposition taken May 3rd, 2016, Epstein's accuser, Virginia Garuff, claimed that she was instructed by Epstein's associate and sex trafficker, Julianne Maxwell, to give a massage to Richardson during a trip to Epstein Ranch. In New Mexico, when asked whether she met Richardson, gruff said, I want to say that he went, he was supposed to come over for dinner when we were in New Mexico. I don't know if I met him. I believe that he and Ghislaine had dinner separate from myself. Gruff also said that Maxwell personally instructed her to give massage to Bill Richardson Richardson, the chair of the 2004 Democratic National Convention was also n nominated. For the Nobel peace prize in 2019 for his work in North Korea's nuclear crisis. He died in September of 2023 in August, 2019 Bloomberg reported. Richardson denied ever meeting Garuff called the allegations completely false.  Wow. He died in 2003.  How  could you ever  imagine somebody randomly dying? That was a part of Epstein's situation?  How weird is that?  Now, I don't know much about Bill Richardson, but I do know that they said he was the chair of the Democratic National Committee?  Hmm,  that seems fitting.  Now another thing that people have talked about, and I believe the name's on this list here, so instead of waiting, I'll just tell you.  Some of the most notable things that people would see in the headlines when you saw Jeffrey Epstein's list here is Donald Trump and Bill Clinton.  And if you watched MSNBC, you would have noticed that Donald Trump's name was actually listed eight times  alongside the January 6th insurrection three times within the MSNBC coverage of  the  Jeffrey Epstein documents.  Now the other person's name that I listed was Bill Clinton, which is another one of the two individuals that's listed on this list here. So let's talk about those two individuals while everything else is pulling up here. But one thing that I'd say about the difference between the way that Trump is portrayed within these documents, and the difference between the way that Bill Clinton is portrayed in these documents, and, and this will just tell you everything that you need to know about MSNBC and their reporting, is that when they reported Donald Trump's name eight times and Bill Clinton's name zero times. What they failed to mention was the fact that Donald Trump was essentially exonerated from all wrongdoing within these documents. Now, that's not to say that there won't be more documentation that comes out. That's not to say that Donald Trump is completely innocent because we don't know that.  But that is to say that as far as the evidence is concerned today regarding Donald Trump and Jeffrey Epstein, Donald Trump has done no wrongdoing according to the individuals that have been interviewed at this time.  So that's the first thing that. They failed to mention was the fact that every mention of Donald Trump's name within the Jeffrey Epstein documents stated that no, he never participated in any of these underage activities. Now again, I still think there's some element of guilty by association,  that should be applied here. That, that, that,  I'm just highly skeptical of anybody.  Who is around Jeffrey Epstein at any time and immediately calling them innocent I just I still think that there's a lot to be that that will come out  Especially if you listen to Megyn Kelly, I still think that there's going to be a fair amount of more trials that go on as a result of this But I do think that when you look at the evidence so far it shows that Donald Trump  Did no wrongdoing here.  And it shows that Bill Clinton word for word, Bill Clinton within the documents of Jeffrey Epstein's released documents recently states that Bill Clinton, according to the individual that was interviewed.  He likes his girls young. That was the word for word conversation that was had from the legal documents. Under oath, somebody said, not only does he participate with people who are under 18, illegal pedophilia, but also he likes them young, which to me in the context of this situation tells you that he likes them even younger than 18,  younger, younger, younger. Right?  Now, we also know,  well, and we'll get to that in a second, but that to me is the most egregious thing that we saw when it came to the reporting of this is Donald Trump's name was plastered everywhere about this. Bill Clinton's name was alongside it. Bill Clinton, two former presidents on Jeffrey Epstein's  list  of perpetrators.  Well, no,  one former president  and one,  one vice president would be accurate to say  was not in any way, shape, or form shown to have committed any wrongdoing. And I'll be the first person to call him out when there's evidence to show otherwise. I've posted pictures about him in the past next to Jeffrey Epstein. I'm completely transparent. I have no skin in the game. I will absolutely, 100%, be the first person to call out Donald Trump when we see evidence that he was a part of this. Because we've seen so far, there is very clear evidence.  I believe Bill Clinton's name was mentioned 157 times throughout the documents.  Specifically saying, in one instance, that he likes his girls young.  Ew.  Now, let's go to the third  most powerful person, because now we know who number two and number one are, so I'm sorry for  Going back and forth on ya, but one that surprised me a little bit that I didn't see, at least I didn't dive into enough, and I haven't seen evidence of before, so let's read about this now. Says, Climate alarmist and former vice president Al Gore is mentioned in nearly 1, 000 pages of court filings and other documents linked to Epstein. While Gore was not identified as one of the Epstein's alleged clients, the former vice president was named in May 2016 deposition by alleged Epstein victim Johanna Schoenberg, who denied ever meeting Gore. Or seeing him or his wife, Tipper Gore, on Epstein's private island in Little St. James.  In a separate filing on April 2016, Gore was named as a part of a list of documents requested by attorneys for Maxwell in a civil defamation lawsuit. The filing concludes an objection from lawyers from Epstein's accuser, Gruff, in response to a request by Maxwell's attorneys to turn over all photographs or video containing any image. Of you and Gore, along with several other individuals, including Clinton, Prince Andrew, and Stephen Hawking.  In the court filings, Gore is not accused of any wrongdoing or illegal activity. Okay, so again, why are we talking about these people? Right, this is what you have to be careful with, with these documents, is that we can't just immediately say that they're guilty and they're this type of person. Right, because I hadn't read this yet, and I didn't know. Al Gore was not accused of any wrongdoing. Now again, there is some essence, just for Trump, as there is here for Al Gore, of guilty by association to me. I don't believe that I've been friends with any high level blackmailing pedophiles before.  I've never flown to any suspicious islands. With children's toys where they shouldn't be,  and I've never been in a situation where my name was listed in Jeffrey Epstein's documents,  so  it's a little hazy,  but let's go ahead  and let's just see  where this takes us  with Bill Clinton's name. As that loads, let's go back to our next document. All right, so I'll take you through some of the actual documents that were discussed here and the word for word conversations that were had surrounding some of these individuals. All right, so  again, I think That you have to be careful when you're looking at these because some of the names on these lists  were Individuals who were not being accused of anything specific  But  let's look at the actual documentation here. And this is from a Substack article Oh,  and by the way, another really  famous individual that was on Jeffrey Epstein's documentation and lists here was the former prime minister of Israel. Oh.  So you mean to tell me the very association that Ghislaine Maxwell's father worked for,  you know, the Mossad and the person that they worked for there, the prime minister of Israel, went and visited Jeffrey Epstein at his New York town home.  That's weird.  And when he did it, he covered his face with a scarf. Even there's pictures out there of him covering his face with a scarf.  All right. So let's go through some of this documentation here  from the list.  And one of the names that shocked me the most.  But we'll get to him in just a minute.  But you can walk around, walk around, you can actually walk through these documents with me.  If you're on YouTube, again, go to YouTube, type in the Adams Archive, and you can subscribe there. All right, so here we go.  This portion, the top portion is going to be around prints. Andrew. So it says new details on the allegations against Prince Andrew have not also surfaced. Miss, and I'm just not going to be saying names of victims from here on out, that was silly to begin with, also testified that she met Prince Andrew in Virginia Corrath when she was 17 years old in New York City, along with Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell. Here is her testimony. And do you recall who, if anyone,  was at Jeffrey Epstein's home when you arrived? Yes. When I first walked in the door, it was myself, Ghislaine, headed for the staircase and said,  Told me to come up to the living room and what happened at that point when you came up to the living room? I came up and saw Virginia, Jeffrey, Prince Andrew, Ghislaine, in the room. And did you meet Prince Andrew at the time? Yes. At Epstein's New York home was a Prince Andrew puppet, apparently from a BBC production. Weird. Maxwell brought it down for Prince Andrew and either Maxwell or Epstein took a scandalous photo of Prince Andrew with the girls.  They put the puppet on Virginia's lap and sat, I sat on Andrew's lap, and they put the puppet's hand on Virginia's breast, and Andrew put his hand on my breast, and they took a photo.  The most, the more disturbing allegations against Prince Andrew came directly from Garuff. Please name a person that Glam Maxwell directed you to go have sex with. And she said, Prince. Andrew. Now, the only reason I'm saying Garuff's name is because that's been the most high profile victim of some of this and she's come out and obviously been the forerunner in the victims to actually go after these people and is very, very open and public about it. Glenn Dubin  is another one. So it says Garuff also alleged that she was directed to have sex with Epstein's friend and billionaire and then hedge fund manager, Glenn Dubin. Okay, well I need you to say the time when Maxwell directed you to go have sex with another person. So can you please tell me to whom Glenn Maxwell asked you to go have sex with another person?  Mr. Edwards, the lawyer, said, Object to the form.  And then she said, A. Glenn. Dubin.  Dubin's ties to Epstein have been previously reported back in 2009 after Epstein was given his sweetheart plea deal from the Department of Justice. The Dubins hosted Epstein for Thanksgiving dinner.  Wow.  That must be quite the Thanksgiving dinner. Now one of the bigger names that we'll see here that came up to me that was the most surprising, you know, who's surprised by hedge fund managers and all that stuff. Well, let's just, let's take it in stride. It says Thanksgiving dinner telling his probation officer, they were 100 percent comfortable with his being around their teenage daughter. Ew.  Another one was Tom Pritzker. Tom Pritzker is a billionaire businessman serving as executive chair for Hyatt Hotels and a chairman and CEO of the Pritzker organization. He's also a member of the Aspen Institute. Gruff alleged she slept with him once.  Now, if we go into the conversation here, it says, if I were to ask you the question, how many times did you have sex with Tom Pritzker? Do you know what that question means? She said, I believe so. All right. And what is the answer? I believe I was with Tom once.  Next one is David Copperfield. Magician, magician David Copperfield also emerged in the latest Epstein release. While there are no sex related allegations against Copperfield, at this time it's clear the witness testimony that he was friends with Epstein and had at least some knowledge of what was going on in Epstein's home.  Perhaps he had been informed by Epstein or Maxwell that they were recruiting process where girls were paid to find other girls according to Johanna,  the victim. Have you ever met David Copperfield?  Copperfield, yes. And do you recall when you initially met him? Yes. Can you tell me what that was about? Sure, someone called me from the house and said that he would be there, and if I wanted to come have dinner, then I could meet him. And what happened at the dinner, if anything? He did some magic tricks. Did you observe David Copperfield to be a friend of Jeffrey Epstein's? Yes. Did Copperfield ever discuss Jeffrey's involvement with young girls with you? He questions me if I was aware that girls were getting paid to find other girls. Did he tell you any of the specifics of that? And no.  And the biggest reveal for me from all of the Epstein documents  that I hadn't seen before that it had no really backing until this more recent release is Michael Jackson's name came up in the Epstein documents. That's right. Michael Jackson. Now, again, I don't think this should surprise very many people when you get into the highest levels of Hollywood elites and Hollywood elite  pedophiles.  He's probably one of the first names that comes up.  But  even Michael Jackson, the king of pop himself, was friendly with Epstein. He was at Epstein's Palm Beach mansion at least once, as explained by the victim. Did you ever meet anybody famous when you were at Epstein?  She said, I met Michael Jackson. Oh, really? And where was that at his house in Palm Beach at Jeffrey's house in Palm Beach. Did you massage him? She said, I did not. She would also testify that Epstein would speak on the phone with either celebrity with other celebrities, including Leonardo DiCaprio and Cate Blanchett.  Here's the transcript said I was, I saw one press report that you said you met Cate Blanchett or Leonardo DiCaprio. I did not meet them. No, when I spoke about them, it was when I was massaging him. And he would get off, he would be on the phone a lot of the time, and one time he said, Oh, that was Leonardo, or that was Cate Blanchett, or Bruce Willis, that kind of thing. So, just name dropping. Yes. Okay.  Here's the closing thoughts from this article. It says many of the documents that were released today were previously released in the course of Garuff vs. Maxwell's litigation, albeit in a more redacted form.  For example, one document from today's allegations that claimed Maxwell took the passport of a 15 year old girl. We reported on that document back in 2022, it said. Also, as we discussed on December 19th of 2023, not all the Jane Doe's are alleged to have committed wrongdoing,  or John Doe's, sorry. Today's documents included John Doe's who were doctors to the victims, friends of the victims, and family members of the victims.  It's been unfortunate and rather sad to see the media and various morons with large platforms on social media. The list is long and distinguished to lump those innocent people with the predatory John Doe's, as if all the names to be released were part of Epstein's list. If there is a positive to all of that, We guess it's that you can can't really tell who doesn't, you can really tell who doesn't do the reading anyways. Then this is what I preempted that 90 person list with, right. It's like, you can't just go look at these names and say every single one of them was one of the perpetrators. No, you have to dig deeper than that  anyways. The list of unknown John Doe's as opposed to the known John Doe's, such as Sarah Kellen, who are alleged to have committed abuse, is rather small. Today's release doesn't include all the perpetrator, John Doe's. There are more names set to be released in the coming days. This includes John Doe 113, a purported Epstein affiliate and witness,  witness who is alleged to have engaged in serious wrongdoing.  And we'll be here to report.  The developments.  All right. So there you have it. Now  let's go back  to  the victim or I'm sorry, not the victim, but one of the most interesting cases that has come up, the  probably biggest,  biggest,  most made fun of individual from all of this and rightfully, right. If you're on this list and a part of this, obviously  you deserve to be ridiculed endlessly for the rest of your life.  But,  Stephen Hawking was on Jeffrey Epstein's list released.  Hmm,  you say Stephen Hawking? Isn't that guy a quadriplegic?  Yes! Yes, he is.  I have questions, and I'm sure so do you,  but his name was on the list, and by far,  by far, the best joke that I've seen on this so far  is what I had mentioned earlier that I just ran into when I was looking at all of this,  and it said,  Stephen, did you hear about Stephen Hawking being on Jeffrey Epstein's list? Yes. Yes, I did.  He was tried, convicted and sentenced.  He got the chair.  All right, so Stephen Hawking was on the list. Now this is probably,  again, like I said, the, the most hilarious of them all and not really hilarious. It's not, none of it's funny, obviously, but the most crazy wild is probably more accurate.  Stephen Hawking was now the center of every internet meme of all time now because he was found within the documents saying that he loved being a part, well, One of the victims, I guess,  said that he loved being a part of underage orgies.  And this comes from NDTV. It says, Okay, we all know all of that.  Jeffrey Epstein once proposed A reward to disprove an alleged accusation involving renowned physicist Stephen Hawking, a report said. The latest finding comes in a large trove of documents released due to a lawsuit filed by Virginia Garuff, Epstein accuser against Ghislaine Maxwell, an accomplice to Epstein. In a 2015 email, Epstein reportedly Suggested to Maxwell that she could issue a reward to anyone who could disprove  Giroff's allegations. Specifically, Epstein mentioned a purported claim that Hawking had participated in an orgy on Epstein's private island in the Virgin Islands. It's important to note that there are no specific allegations directly from Giroff regarding Hawking and that Hawking has never been charged with any sexual misconduct.  Hawking did visit Epstein's private Caribbean Island as a part of a science conference trip, of course, to St. Thomas in March 2006, shortly before Epstein faced his first charges. Photos from the events show Hawking participating in activities on Epstein Island. However, the newly revealed email did not contain any evidence to substantiate the claim against Hawking. The same email also referred to a separate allegation involving President Bill Clinton, who Epstein said was falsely accused, of course, right? So basically what was happening in this situation is that Jeffrey Epstein was probably  had Stephen Hawking or his crew reach out to him and go, Hey, we need you to find somebody who, in case something happens or this information comes out, is a friend of the individuals that were around this area that are making these claims that would then say that he was not there and he didn't participate and none of this is true. So he was just saying, I'll pay you or pay the, I will reward the individual.  the amount of millions of dollars  to potentially lie  and say that he wasn't a part of this,  which to me tells me, again, most of what you need to know.  It says  Virginia Garaffe was also accused upseen trafficker and forcing her to have sex with Prince Andrew, King Charles, thirds, the younger brother on three occasions when she was 17 in the 2022 statement, following an out of court settlement with Garaffe, Prince Andrews lawyer stated his intention to make a substantial donation to grow up, charity, to support a victim's rights.  Yeah, okay.  Now, another part of this is, did you know?  That the Simpsons actually predicted Stephen Hawking  being  a pedophile.  And the video, I saw the video of this, is he's basically in a  a gazebo in his wheelchair. And he goes to leave and, and picks up,  what is it? Not Marge's daughter. I forget the, how can I not know that? Right? Come on.  Let's see if it's on here. But anyways  Maggie, right? Is that Maggie? Yeah, I think it's Maggie. Or is Maggie the one, the younger one? Yeah, Bart,  Homer,  Maggie.  Yeah, who cares?  I'm sure you're shaking and your fist at me right now. But anyways, I gotta keep a lot of other stuff in here And I haven't watched The Simpsons in probably 15 years. So to be fair  but  Allegedly, this was a another Simpson conspiracy win here was Stephen Hawking picking up One of the Simpsons children and taking them on a little flight with him  after he had  left this little scene on the Simpsons. So  let's see if we can get any of the comments here from the comments section.  But, pretty wild stuff. Yeah, just, just the, the similarity, the correlation to the events is a little uncanny to say the least.  Side note, I do find it funny, I did a video the other day about Madison Cawthorne, if you haven't gone and watched the  Dave Chappelle comedy special that he just had released on Netflix, he actually does a joke about Madison Cawthorne, and I've had some  short conversations with Madison Cawthorne before through social media, and  he, he  actually made a joke about Madison Cawthorne, and it was pretty good, it got a little dark for a second  but it was a funny joke, and Madison Cawthorne took it in stride and actually went and To the show of Dave Chappelle  and to see Dave Chappelle making fun of him Which I think is just the all time like best move that you could do in that situation is like the last thing you should do when somebody you know makes fun of you or  your  background, your, your shortcomings  is try to cancel them like the left is constantly trying to do. Right? We've seen people from, from the left you know, always trying to, you know, there's the big walkout because of him and all this other crazy stuff. So it just seems like the wrong way to go about that. And Jeff. Or,  And Madison Cawthorn  actually drove out to the place where it was closest to him that he could go and have a,  a actual full show of Dave Chappelle. So he could be made fun of directly by Dave Chappelle, which I just love.  And it was uncanny because Dave Chappelle was making fun of like, why, why are you inviting a,  he said, quadriplegic to a, to an orgy? Like, what is he going to do? Just wheel around and. Look and you basically just invited a snitch to come in there and snitch on everybody and you can't even participate and you know It's way funnier than me So go watch it and it was hilarious but the fact that the timing of that coming out at the same exact time that we find out that Stephen Hawking was Included in these Epstein orgies is like just just pretty weird  Alright, so the next situation that we're going to discuss here  is going to be that in Miami  There was  hundreds, what looked like, of cops.  In Miami, responding to a call, allegedly, about children fighting each other with sticks and fireworks. And I think the number that I saw was four kids, or young adults, fighting each other with sticks. And you look at the videos of this, and there was at least 85  cop cars lined, I've never seen anything like it in my life, lined down the road, to respond to this call about four children.  Fighting with sticks and fireworks inside of a mall.  That seems weird,  but there was reports coming out afterwards of individuals who were being interviewed because there was no footage of these kids fighting with sticks. There was no footage of the fireworks being shut off inside of this mall,  which is weird because you have that much of a police presence. First of all, why do you have 70 cops? So you can't imagine how many cops were actually there, but 70 cop cars lined up all the way down the street just to respond to a call about four kids fighting each other with sticks. Dicks, not machine guns, not Tommy guns, not  RPGs, no sticks.  Okay? So weird. And there's no footage about it. And you, you go into any tropical smoothie and you'll see that there's a video somewhere on Tik Tok of, of a Karen yelling at a tropical smoothie manager somewhere. Like, if this was the case and it warranted this type of response, why not have  video evidence of this?  But there were people who came out from this Miami mall, allegedly,  and said that. The reason that they were, the reason that there was such a large presence there was that because there was a large  amount of shadowy aliens chasing down people in the mall that were reportedly eight to 10 feet tall. Now, this is going to lead us into our deep dive for this week, which is about the Nephilim, which is the ancient biblical beings, which were allegedly very tall and very strong and descendants of God and man.  But we'll get into that deep dive in a minute. Whether or not I believe this is the case is another story, because it seems to me like, hey, if there's 8 to 10, if I think there's going to be footage of  14 year olds fighting with sticks, I definitely think there's going to be footage of 8 to 10 foot tall beings chasing people down in a shopping mall,  unless there was some sort of men in black, you know, memory stick that erases everybody's memories and phone footage from iCloud.  I don't know. I just don't believe that probably either.  Right, there's probably going to be footage that comes out about that, either which way. So the weird thing is that we still don't really have the full narrative from inside or outside from the police that were there of what actually happened within this mall. But the reports that came out from within, and people who claim to have been inside of this mall at the time that this happened, was that there were shadow like alien figures chasing people down.  So this comes from CBS news,  Miami,  and here's the article. It says a large brawl between teenagers caused chaos at Bayside marketplace in downtown Miami on Monday night. However, social media users claimed that what ensued then was much more.  As the fight drew a heavy police presence to the area that evening, rumors quickly spread around Twitter and other social media platforms, suggesting that police weren't there to handle a group of rowdy teens, but rather nine or eight to 10 foot tall shadow aliens.  According to an amateur video posted online, there was moments when a big creature could be seen in plain sight standing in front of the entrance to the shopping mall, causing many online conspiracies. Conspiracists  . I like that online. Conspiracists. I'm not a conspiracy theorist. I'm a conspiracist to post their takes on exactly what happened that Monday night, and of course the memes came flooding in as well. Hmm. So here is the video of the amount of cop cars that were there, and I'll share this with you if you're on YouTube.  Here it is.  Let's watch this video. Here's the actual like, and we'll just kind of skip around so that we get to the,  get to the  part where you see the unbelievable amount of police officers that were actually here on site.  If it'll load for us.  Here we go.  I'll turn the footage off or the sound off for you guys. So if you're on the podcast, it doesn't blast your ears  just like that.  So it's panning and as it's panning, you see down the road. Of this like, side street in front of the mall. I guess every time I  go to turn the sound off, it's also pausing it.  Here we go, let's just do this.  There we go, it's panning and there's  10, 20,  30, 50,  70, like so many cop cars. Lined all the way down this whole road. So many cop cars.  So, let's go on to the next part here. I don't know if the rumors are about the aliens in the Miami Mall are real, but I do know I've never seen this many police in one place, said one ex user. Wow, thank you for your feedback.  Has some mean videos. Everybody has cell phones. Nobody has an up close video of the eight, 10 foot aliens at the mall. Another user posted. Yeah, good point.  Me greeting the aliens at the mall. Isn't just some memes. All right.  So I don't know what's going on here. I do know  that there's a increasing amount of conversations surrounding beings. Surrounding aliens, surrounding spiritual beings, surrounding, you know, how many times have we heard about aliens over the last year, it is absolutely ramping up in the public psyche, which to me is priming, right? I think we're being primed. I think we're being primed for  some sort of catastrophe event, you know, whether you want to call it project blue beam or whether they're actually is going to have something that ends up coming out  that is real. Yeah. And they're priming us for that thing, potentially. But I do believe we're being primed for the situation. You want to go back to  the most you know, publicized alien events over the last six months, let's say. There was the woman on the plane. That motherfucker right back there is not real. And, you know, remember her, right? That was priming. Right? I think, I think, you know, whether she was a part of it or not, whatever. But I do think that there are certain news entities and algorithms from social medias that can take a video like that and either do one of two things. They can suppress it, or they can add fuel to the fire. They can decide that they're going to give it 50 million views.  They make those decisions, right? So when they decide whether to suppress a video,  amplify it, you should pay attention as to why, right? Maybe that, that's what happened. And maybe she was drunk and maybe nothing happened,  but still  that video was allowed to circulate the way that it did through social media and then through news organizations. So whether or not that was It doesn't have to be intentional. She doesn't have to be an actress. It doesn't have to be this crazy conspiracy to happen. Maybe she was drunk on a plane and took a  Valium when she shouldn't have or a Xanax. And then, Drank too much and she saw something weird and she was all whatever messed up and now she's you know a living meme for the rest of her life. But,  so there was that event the first one that set it off a little bit. And there's been all those the senate hearings and stuff like that too, but let's let's not even talk about those. Let's talk about the social media aspect.  Then, there was the video footage of somebody in their backyard who called the cops  on exactly what's being reported here, an 8 to 10 foot tall being in their backyard that they allegedly found on their security footage.  Interesting.  And now,  another situation that's circulating like crazy is the fact that there was these 8 to 10 foot tall, spiritual, Shadowy beings inside of this mall,  and that's why the police showed up in this way. So I absolutely believe we're being primed in some way, shape or form.  If you want to go back and look at the, you know, then the whole episode on project blue beam,  I'll give you a synopsis.  Project blue beam is essentially the idea that our government is going to cause some sort of  catastrophic illusion that makes it seem as if aliens are attacking us to bring on one world government to fight it off. Okay. Which, you know, is interesting. I, you know, I'm reading a book right now that's actually going to become a Netflix series that I would highly recommend,  which is The Three Body Problem, which is a Chinese book.  It's a three part fiction sci sci fi book that you can read and I highly recommend it. It's beautifully written. It's really well done. It's really interesting. It brings up some philosophical  conversations. It brings it jumps all through these beautiful timelines and There's, there's so many well done elements to it. I would highly recommend it. The Three Body Problem and then  The Dark Forest and then Death Sent is the, the three part series of this, this book series. But it's actually going to be a Netflix series that comes out. Although from the trailer of the Netflix series, I'm a little disappointed because I'm a big fan of this book that I'm reading. I'm on the third one right now. I'm about, I don't know, 25 percent through it, but.  They're not, they're not super light books, but I, again, if you read, go read it, and if you don't read, maybe go read the first one, because it's gonna get on Netflix here in March, and but, but it looked like in the trailer, they kind of butchered it. There was a Chinese  version of it where I'm, seems like they were much more aligned with the way the book was written. And then the Americanized version of it looks like they took a lot of liberties that they shouldn't have taken. And it's done by the same people that did Game of Thrones. So it's obviously going to be pushed like crazy  and it's coming in March, I think. So if you have the time, grab the three body problem, highly recommend it. I think you would like it. I've enjoyed it. It's the first sci fi book I've ever really read but it's been really fun journey for, for myself. So I think you'd like it too. And if you care, it's.  It's  the, the person who wrote the foreword for it, maybe not the foreword, but just wrote a review for it that's on the very front of it is Barack Obama, which is like the most random shit ever,  anyways,  so so that's where I believe, I, I believe we're being primed, I believe this is being allowed to circulate this way, I think that they probably, probably wanted to pump up the conspiracy theorists, just the same way they did with Q, right? They're going to infiltrate the communities and start to put stuff on Reddit and, and, and put the videos out there and, and spark all this conversation so that eventually some, some things going to happen, right? We look back at COVID and even back in 2000 and geez, I don't remember the date, but, but Bill Gates did a, did a,  a.  Speech on viruses and how it's going to cause this nationwide pandemic. And you look at the,  the who or something wrote, wrote a gosh, I can't remember the document now, but you can go back. I've talked about it before. There was a document written on the direct response by the, this, whatever government organization was might've been the NIH about how to drill, how to deal with a Corona virus. If it just so happened to break out and it was like two years prior and it outlined exactly basically how. They approached this  COVID situation. So whatever.  But I, but I think that was priming and I think this is priming now and I think something will happen there. This is all leading up to something and whether it's this year or next year,  the reason that.  And if you listen to my last podcast, and I don't want to go on too many side tangents here, so let's just keep this the mainstream.  I believe we're being primed. I believe that this is happening intentionally. I believe it's being allowed to circulate the way that it is right now because there's going to be something that happens, whether it's a trove of information that they're just getting us ready to like,  to sleep about aliens until they actually tell us, yeah, they're real and hey, we're in contact with them and we've been in contact with them for over a hundred years. And guess how you got internet and guess how you got that cell phone that you can FaceTime your grandma six fucking million miles away from you and get instantaneous access to all the information you could ever want at will and Watch midget porn before you go to bed, whatever it is that you do, use the internet for  and play video games and all of these other, all the technology that has come out from humans  over the last hundred years. You look at the trajectory that we were on for technology,  the, the thousand years prior was nowhere near, nowhere near the amount of technology that we've come out with in the last 50, a hundred years, a hundred years, let's say a hundred years  is unbelievable.  My firm belief, I firmly believe that the reason that we have all the technology we have, internet, cell phones, the basically almost anything and everything that's not a physically tangible, if it's a frequency that goes through the air, like Nikola Tesla stuff, right?  I believe that it is not of this world. I believe that we are gaining technology. tips from some other entity that was either here before us or came from somewhere else. And you can call me crazy if you want to, but I just don't believe you. You're going to tell me that internet was designed by some random idiot like me in a basement by himself, like, or some five guys in a  room together with A sharpie, like, I don't believe you, it's just, it's not convincing to me, but it is super convincing that somebody else who had far more technology than us has been dropping little pieces of it from time to time, whether that's directly through to you know, what Tucker Carlson will come out and say in just a minute here, when we watch his video is that they're in contact with these beings. They've been in contact with these beings. These beings have been here. They've always been here.  And he believes they're spiritual beings.  Just, you know, we'll get into that in a minute.  But anyways, that's the story of the mall. That's my beliefs on that. And this is where I think it's going. I think that there will be some precipice of information that's released or some event. It's going to be information or an event.  And I guess the information would be an event in and of itself if you've been following this long enough.  But I absolutely believe there's going to be a, a,  this happened big precipice that all of this priming has been about for so long. We're being told aliens this, and aliens that, and UFOs are real, and they go into the water, and this and that, and, you know,  And they've basically, you know, I heard Joe Rogan talk about this this way, it's like, they've made being interested in aliens and aliens being released as like, boring now. That nobody really even seems to care. Like it's, it's so wild to see the way that it's been done. It's like, they've lulled everybody to sleep by making it 1, 500 page Senate hearings and Like, they just, when you were growing up in the 90s, you probably thought it was going to be some big saucer, just like,  over top of your town, and then it goes over the farm,  and up goes a cow, from like a big blue beam of light.  That was what we all thought it was going to be. And it's not going to be that. It's not Independence Day. Or maybe it fucking will be, which is probably the most terrifying of the events, right?  But anyways, that's wher

Week 2 of our Kate Blanchett theme month and this week we discuss the 2001 film Bandits. 

The Beached White Male Podcast welcomes Scott Young, Creator and President of Culture Connection and the former Director of the City of Angels Film Festival. Ken likes to call Scott the Professor of Cinema. Scott asserts that we are at the end of the "print culture" and we've become a "culture of moving images."  Movie images are today's "lingua franca." Some see movies for entertainment or escape, others to process the challenges of their lives - or to enrich. Ken shares four films that have shaped and enriched his life - One Flew over the Cuckoo's Nest, Beautiful Mind, Dead Poet Society, and Belfast.  Scott shares his list: Apocalypse Now, Taxi Driver, and Nightmare Alley. As we finished Black History Month, Scott features world-class directors who are also people of color, including Ava DuVernay and When They See Us -  the story of the Central Park Five (also known for the award-winning Selma).  Charles Burnett produced the film Killer of Sheep (1978) as an MFA film student at UCLA - the story of life in South Central Los Angeles.  Gregory Nava's film Selena with a young Jennifer Lopez with Edward  James Olmos, the story of a rising Latin singer who reached the pinnacle of stardom and then tragically murdered at age twenty-three. Alejandro Gonzalez Inarritu directed “Babel" (2006), a collection of stories with Kate Blanchett and Brad Pitt. Rooted in the biblical story of Babel, the stories and the images come together making a powerful punch.  Scott ends by sharing some practical advice on how to watch a movie.SHOW NOTESBecome a Patron - www.patreon,com/beachedwhitemaleSupport the show (http://thebeachedwhitemale.com)

This week's advertised content is an experiment two months in the making--the realization of a thought experiment from a previous episode. After recording our Raiders of the Lost Ark episode, we decided that revisiting the latest Indiana Jones installment, Kingdom of the Crystal Skull was in order, as we had panned it so hard. We both saw the film when it was released in 2008 and neither of us had revisited it until this week.So, this week we went into this episode ready to destroy it. Did we? Did we not? Who's to say? Click and listen in to our thoughts on Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull, starring Harrison Ford (duh), Kate Blanchett, Karen Allen, Shia LeBouf, and John Herd. In this installment to the franchise, Indy is recruited by newcomer Mutt Williams to help find his mother and mutual friend Professor Oxley from a KGB scientist seeking a mythical artifact. Welcome to The Plotaholics Podcast, the podcast that dares to ask: "Was Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull unfairly maligned and unnecessarily derided?

Samhain Mediation: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8RjNTyI4xTs   S2E40 TRANSCRIPT: ----more---- Mark: Welcome back to the wonder science-based paganism. I'm your host, mark.  Yucca: And I'm Yucca.  Mark: And it is Hallows seasons, Samhain season, Halloween, so many happy returns of the holiday to you. Today we're going to talk about all things related to those holidays, that constellation of holidays, and talk about themes and activities and how we celebrate. So it's hard to believe that we've come all the way around the wheel of the year, again, to, to this time. But here it is Yucca: Yeah, here we are. And personally, I'm thrilled. I love this time of year  Mark: me too. Yucca: it's a fun one. And right now, so we're recording the 24th, so a week ahead. But mark, you have another reason to be celebrating happening right now, right?  Mark: I do it is pouring rain where I live and we've been in a really serious drought. So I'm, I'm, I'm in a really great mood today. It's the sky is dark and gray and we're probably getting about an inch, an hour of rain, maybe a little less. And,  Yucca: a  Mark: we have flash flood warnings and I couldn't be more pleased Yucca: Yeah. So sounds like the land has been really, really thirsty. This is early for you to write.  Mark: very much so. Yeah. I mean, we typically get one rainstorm in September or October, and then it stays dry again until like December But this is the second rainstorm we've had. The first one was very weak and about a week ago. But this is a class five atmospheric river, so it's huge. And we're expected to get as much as 13, 14 inches of rain in the next 24 hours. So it's pretty exciting. Yucca: That's amazing. Yeah. So I hope everybody stays safe during this time as well though. Cause you've had fires. So after fires, there's often the mudslides and flooding that comes from the areas that were burned.  Mark: Right. The other reason why it is such a relief to have this huge rainstorm for us here is that this marks the end of wildfire season. Everything is getting a good wedding down and we're we're even if we have a lightning storm now, which is what set off the last couple of rounds of fires were lightning storms. The ground is just going to be too wet for anything to take off. So we're, we're good  Yucca: be that sponge, just that store to get you through the next few months. Hope, and then hopefully your rain will come, so, oh, well that's great.  Mark: Yep. They're excited. Yucca: yeah, 13 inches. That's amazing. So, but why don't we let's jump into Hallows and Halloween and all of that. And let's actually start by talking about. Different holidays because like Blake, when we get to the winter solstice, there are quite a few holidays that are all clumped together. And sometimes we treat them sort of as one, sometimes we don't, but there's different themes. There's overlapping themes. So I think that'd be interesting to get into the differences  Mark: Sure. Yeah, at the winter solstice, there's a, I mean, a literal blizzard of holidays, starting, starting with Krampus knocked on December 7th and then extending all the way until.  Yucca: Mid January.  Mark: January when you've got, you know, the end of 12th night and you know, all those three or three Kings day, and there's all kinds of stuff going on in there for, for various different religious orientations, but here in the United States. Anyway, we really only have one conventionally recognized holiday that is celebrated by the predominant culture. And that's Halloween on the 31st, which is a week from today. And  Yucca: I my area also DIA de Los Muertos is really big here as well. Yeah. cause we're, my account is about 80% Hispanic. So that's a big, but for the, for the majority of the country, I think you're right. That, that Halloween is the primary celebrated holiday.  Mark: We do have some celebrations of DIA de Los Muertos here. And, but I mean, the area where I live is predominantly Anglo. And so, it's really more for the Latino community and and in a very gracious and welcoming way, the leaders of the Latino community welcomed the rest of the community to come and visit the public or friend does and all that kind of stuff. Very aesthetically beautiful holiday. It just, you know, the orange and black and the, the beautiful, beautiful altars. They're just so stunning. So anyway, we have this day Halloween, and for those of us who are pagans, then there's this other thing which is called Sowan or we call it Hallows in atheopagan ism because we don't use the Celtic names for things. Yucca: Or last harvest is another one that gets used.  Mark: Right. The last of the three harvest Sabbaths. So, we, we thought that we would differentiate between those a little bit because for one thing, we're pagan, so we'll take any opportunity to celebrate things that have a holiday. So we'll, you know, we grab all of them and we don't have to crystallize our favorite time of the year down into a single day. In fact October is kind of eerie month.  Yucca: Yes.  Mark: We get out all the decorations and we watch scary movies and just do all the, you know, read ghost stories and do all, all the things,  Yucca: And eat, pumpkin so much pumpkin  Mark: eat so much pumpkin. Oh my goodness. Yucca: and the sweet potatoes and the all that nice warm, all that good stuff.  Mark: Yeah. Yeah. So let's talk about Halloween first. I mean, this is going to be pretty familiar, I think to almost all, if not all of our listeners it's obviously a holiday that has become very commercialized in the United States. More money is spent on Halloween than on any other holiday, except for Christmas. And that's in the form of decorations, candy, party supplies, and costuming generally. It's a big deal. And so there are these, there are themes that go along with Halloween. And the biggest one is death, mortality and scary stuff, stuff we don't generally cuddle up to, or want to look at so big, hairy spiders and you know, lots of cobwebs and imaginary, supernatural beings that scare us a lot and psychotic people who will kill you because they're deranged and all those sorts of kind of narrative themes. It's a, it's a time for looking at the darker side of life. And I wouldn't say. In the mainstream culture that's done in an entirely healthy way. For one thing, it's very commercialized and it's also highly sexualized. A lot of the costuming, especially for women is it's like sexy nurse, sexy air air, traffic controller. Yeah. Yucca: I was looking at it and my kids are very young, but I was looking at costumes for them. And we ended up making them, which was way more fun for the kids, but looking at what would fit my five-year-old daughter and going, whoa, whoa, wow. Like, you know, we're not like super like modest, tight, strict people, but like that's uncomfortable. Like that's for a, five-year-old that's a barely more than a toddler and you know, the, the skirts and the low cut things and just very sexualized already  Mark: Yeah. Yucca: I was quite disappointed actually to find that  Mark: Yeah, it's disturbing. And I mean, to me, part of that is just not letting children have childhood,  Yucca: yeah,  Mark: You know, sexual, especially girls, you know, sexualizing them early and kind of encouraging them into that sort of, you know, demonstrative sort of dress and, and behavior. And as you say, you know, as pagans, we're not, prudes, we're all about the sex. We think it's great, but not for five-year-olds.  Yucca: Yeah.  Mark: That's that's, that's inappropriate and there's no reason for it. And unfortunately there is that factor that happens with children, where they try to emulate what their parents or the older people are doing, because you know, learning to play adult is a part of how they learn to become adults. Right. And so I think then there's that fosters this demand for this kind of costuming that just really isn't appropriate. Yucca: And to be fair, it's not all of them, there are plenty of other ones out there, but a lot of those are the ones that get on the front page of this search. You know, when you're on Amazon or they're the things that are at the front of the store, if you're going into a physical store, like that's, what's being presented and you have to search to do something else that you've got to put in this, this time and mental effort.  And just to use some of your bandwidth to make a conscious choice to not do that.  Mark: right, right. So that being said, it is a very commercialized holiday and because it is a mainstream over culture holiday, it is steeped with the values of that culture. Two very big aspects are a very uncomfortable and often inappropriate relationship with sexuality and a deep phobia around death, which sometimes manifest itself in morbid fascination, especially at this time of year. So you will see people going for the bloodiest most disgusting look they can possibly come up with because. That's cool that the rest of the year, they have to kind of keep their fascination with that stuff bottled up. But on this one day of the year, they can, they can let it shine. So, we were talking about fiends and I think that and we've talked about this before. There's a, there's a sort of Gothic aesthetic. That's very popular with with goth people clearly. But with pagans in which generally because we, our value system is somewhat different. We kind of, we embrace the dark, we don't reject the dark. And so being associated with spiders and snakes and bones and skulls and. That's and all that kind of thing, black cats that doesn't freak us out at all. In fact, we like it. We, we, we gravitate it is it's kind of fun and there's a, there's a power in it. I think, you know, that, that we, we take to ourselves, these, these objects of fear on the part of the mainstream culture and say, Hey, we're not scared of it. You know, to us, these are powerful allies and friends. And so, you know, we, there there's some, there's some weight that goes behind that. Some, some power that is implied by our not being phased by stuff that the rest of the culture seems to be intimidated by. Yucca: Yeah.  Mark: So. Talk, still talking about Halloween before we get into hellos. And so, and what are some of the activities that we associate with with that holiday? Yucca: Well, clearly the trick or treating that's a big yeah. The trick or treating. And then sometimes the Halloween parties as well, but, but really the trick or treating is the first and foremost part.  Mark: Right. And. You know, especially now that's really kind of a remarkable thing when you consider how encapsulated people are in their little homes, most of the time and the kind of paranoid relationship that we have with one another. Now, I mean, violent crime has been dropping steadily and crime against children has been dropping steadily for decades, according to all the available statistics. And yet parents, I mean, the idea of parents actually letting a band of trick or treaters go around on their own without parental supervision. That just doesn't happen anymore. And it used to, when I was a kid, it was like, go have a good time. We're going to stay here and hand out candy to the kids. And, you know, we'll see you back here at nine o'clock or whatever the time is. Yucca: Yeah. but that was already, by the time I was a kid in the nineties that was already fading. Right, That you might see a few, maybe the older kids you'd be maybe the kids that were just on the edge of not of kind of being a little too old for trick or treating, like they could do it, but, but you know, any of the younger kids, they were always, there was a parent, but maybe the parent was like staying back in the car on the side of the road or just sort of like watching, but yeah. You couldn't do that anymore.  Mark: So I think that at the stage that we're at now where, I mean, I don't know about you, but I get bombarded with advertising for, for like home alarm systems. It's ridiculous. It's like, I don't need a home alarm system. Sorry.  Yucca: Or they have it so that you can then check it with your phone and then I'm like, yeah. But then someone can just hack into that. And now your phone, like now you can, you've got cameras all over your house and anybody could hack in and see what's going on inside your house. That's creepy to me. That's way more  Mark: super creepy. Yeah,  Yucca: All the smart, the, so-called smart gadgets really creeped me out. Not in the fun Halloween way, but in the like dystopian future creeped out way.  Mark: yeah, me too. Me too. We have one smart thing in our house. It's a smart plug  Yucca: Okay.  Mark: that the mayor can control from her phone to turn lights on and off that I can live with. It's not connected to the, well, I guess it is connected to the internet by some sort of means, but all that it can do is turn on and off. That's all that it's capable of doing.  Yucca: It's not voice command.  Mark: There's no voice command there's no he, oh yeah. Don't even get me started on Siri and all those things. They're just really, really disturbing. So. Leaving leaving the actual scary stuff in the world, going back to the stuff that isn't really so scary, but which people get creeped out about. So the trick or treating of course is a really big deal about that. And that has two elements to it. One of which is, you know, bands of small bandits going from door to door, demanding protection, candy,  Yucca: Yes.  Mark: The the other is is the costuming right on Halloween. We get to pretend to be somebody else. Yucca: Yeah. We get to play with.  Mark: Yes. And that is. Incredible really. I mean, to me, that's the most attractive part of the whole Halloween, the, the mainstream Halloween holidays that I like to dress up as different kinds of people. I, I enjoy that. I, and, and when I do it, I do it in this very method acting kind of immersive way where my character has a name and they have a backstory and, you know, it's a very Dungeons and dragons sort of, way of approaching things. Yucca: And is the listeners you already know, we're both, you know, big, big into Dungeons and dragons in the role-playing tabletop role, playing games. So  Mark: yes. Yucca: even another excuse, but this time it can be LARPing even better, right?  Mark: Yeah. So you should tell them about your game that you do this time of year. Yucca: Oh yes. So. So we do a lot of gaming but around Halloween we'll do a horror game. So my partner and I, and neither of us particularly liked to play for, but enjoy running the game. So we'll actually code DM a game and in here's where we can get together and there's not, you know, pandemic going on. We still don't have people coming into our home because our children are too young to have the vaccine yet. Although hopefully pretty soon the older will be able to, but we still have the youngest. So we still have all the precautions. But when we, when it's not a year like that, we actually use a system called dread. So instead of rolling dice, it's a Jenga block tower. And that just adds to the tension and the atmosphere and we'll do different themes, but it's the one time of year that with the people we play with that it's. Instead of doing a power fantasy, we get to play with those horror themes. And again, I'm not a big fan of playing the horror, but I'm pretty good at figuring out the things that are really kinda gonna get my friends and feel like, Ooh, this is, this is what's going to really, really make you uncomfortable just for that one. Just for the one night. And there's just something really nice about being able to, to play quite literally with those different uncomfortable, those that whole different side. There's just something very, very I guess cathartic about whore.  Mark: Yeah. Yeah, I think so. I mean, there's, there's some good science on this, actually. I mean, you know, what, what horror movies do is they build tension and then they give you a big dopamine flush and then they do it again and then they do it again. And you know, that's rather like winning frequently at the slot machine. It's the same, you know, the same sort of intermittent reinforcement principle that works so well for human motivation.  Yucca: Yeah.  Mark: So it's it's a kind of a natural thing for us to be attracted to doing.  Yucca: Yeah.  Mark: so the dressing up, that's a, that's a big deal. I, we have tons of costumes stuff, Noumea, and I do tons and tons of it. I'm not saying it all fits anymore. But we have. And I haven't decided what I'm going to wear on Halloween itself. And I'll be getting into what my weekend looks like next weekend in a little bit, but we're going to be the new neighborhood that we live in now, I believe probably has quite a number of kids that are going to go trick or treating. And so I'm going to get home from my other commitments early enough that I can change into a costume and hand out candy. And that'll be fun because we haven't done that for years. The places where we've lived before have not had children come by. Yucca: Well, where we live, there will be no trick-or-treaters, but we will be going into town to their grandmother's place, which is actually where my family would drive us to town. I had lived very rural as a child as well to go trick or treating. But my children have informed me that I'm going to be the wishing tree. So anyone with young kids right now might be familiar with true in the rainbow kingdom show from Netflix. But they are going as true and Bartleby, and I am going as a very large tree that grants wishes. So, but it's good. I think it's going to be really cute.  Mark: It sounds adorable. Yucca: yes. And they got, they got to choose what everybody was going to be. I was, I was going, how about we all be cats? No, I don't get to dress up like a cat. I'm going to be a big tree.  Mark: Lumbering tree.  Yucca: yeah. With a little smile on it. So yeah, they were also voting, they also number blocks. So basically going as numbers was pretty high on their list too,  So,  Mark: well,  Yucca: yeah.  Mark: And you have, you have a week to get that costume together if it's not together already. Yucca: It is not, I don't think it's going to be terribly difficult because it's a tree. So I'm just getting, I get to be great. there's, a little bit trickier. I mean, the, the littlest ones could, it's going to be a black cat, basically talking black cat. So that should be good. Cute, cute photos for the future to get to look back on. And that's, I, I remember, and it's, it seemed like it's been the same thing with my kids. Just being the anticipation. there's something so exciting about it. I was woken up this morning to a little voice going seven days to Halloween. So she's been doing that since day 20. Very excited. Mark: I mean, there's so much to love about it when you're a little kid, it's like you get, it's a different day. It's different than all the other days of the year and you get to dress up and you get to go and get candy, and there's all this sort of wonderful imagery around you. That's really interesting and, and evocative. I mean, I, I, I loved it when I was a kid and I, well, I didn't stop  Yucca: you still, Right, A lot of the other holidays that we have, like, there's a kid component to it, but it's not really about kids.  Mark: right. Yucca: Like we're going to be coming up on Thanksgiving. And so yeah, you get to like eat stuff and that's great, but there isn't really a kid you're just sort of there for Thanksgiving. Halloween is really about kids and a lot of ways for the kids, right. Still adults who don't have kids do plenty of Halloween things, but,  Mark: Right. Yucca: but just from their perspective,  Mark: Yeah. Being the center of attention. That's, I mean, that's, that's an attractive prospect for most people and especially for children.  Yucca: And getting to put a mask on piece, someone else and get lots of sugar, lots and lots of sugar.  Mark: Lots of sugar. You bet.  Yucca: So  Mark: So, the, the other side of this holiday season is the pagan side, the Salan or Hallows as some of us call it or the third harvest. And that is not necessarily. October 31st fact, the actual midpoint between the autumnal Equinox and the winter solstice lands, typically on the sixth or 7th of November. So what that does is create a nice tidy week of festivities through October 31st through the 7th of November. When you can do all kinds of cool fun, spooky, great Erie stuff. So why don't you talk a little bit about your thoughts and feelings around this time of year and. Yucca: Yeah. So, so for us, it's this time of year is really about our ancestors, about the, our ancestry and yes, about our immediate, you know, our parents and grandparents and their parents. So our, our human ancestry and maybe our cultural ancestry. But it's also a time that the magically we're really interested in our non-human ancestors, looking at our. At evolution, right? And the, the looking at going back, you know, to reptiles, back to fish, but way before we were even, you know, court dates and going back through and, and really looking at that and just bringing that back into our normal awareness, because we can get so focused in, on our, our daily human life in are extremely urbanized separated from the rest of nature reality, even though, as we've talked about before, you never really can separate from that, but we can, we can put our blinders on and pretend that we are right. And so this time of year is really about being in touch with that. And also the, those that went before the, to make us to allow us to exist that were our ancestors, but also the. That whose deaths allowed us to be in a, in a way they are also our ancestors. So the, the beings that we ate, right. And all of us, again, no matter what your diet is you, because the like thing, that's not really, like, that's not really a thing. Like we all eat. That's just part of being an organism. And we ate somebody in somebody, in somebody. And those, I think honoring those beings is, is honoring our ancestors. So we think a lot about that. It's we were always, you know, reading books and watching documentaries and things like that, but we try to theme w we try to choose things that match with the theme of the time of year So we've been milling a lot on on human evolution and things like that. So the, we have the, the family practice and then my personal practice and the family practices evolving as the children are growing older and getting into different phases in their life on a personal level, I will do like a kind of a meditation or where I will just step out, do a private ritual, usually outside sometime around dusk. And just. Take a moment to really, really think about and remember, and. be really present with those ideas. On my YouTube channel, a couple of years back, I actually did a guided meditation version of this. If people are interested in checking that out.  Mark: Great. Let's put a link to that in the episode notes. Yucca: Yeah. So I'll go ahead And put a link there for everyone who wants to check that, out. And you know, that's like a 20 or 30 minute version for me when I'm guiding myself through that it would, it's maybe a longer process. And it's really nice when I finished. I don't like being cold, but I'll usually go out and do this so that I am a little bit cold afterwards when I go in and there's, and now it's dark and there's just this, this quiet feeling afterwards. Mark: And that, that ties in with the idea of Hallows or sell and as the third harvest, the flesh harvest, but not just the, the late vegetables, but also the time when you're thinning the herds. So that the, the, the animals that you keep are your reproductive stock and, and what you need to get through to the net, to the following spring. But you're not keeping everybody because all of those will eat and food that they're going to eat his food you need. Yucca: Yeah. Or, or like, you know, with cattles, we don't even sustain food as them typically, but they need a lot of it. And is it available? Do you have it stored up? Right. Do you have enough of it or not?  Mark: Right, right.  Yucca: yeah.  Mark: Yeah. So, that whole idea of. The ancestral value of the creatures that we have consumed becomes really pertinent at this time of year. I think there's a tradition that is pretty common in the pagan community which I like to call a silent supper. There they're more frequently called a dumb supper, but I don't like using that word for being unable to speak. So I'm a silent supper and that's a, a silent meal contemplated meal where an empty space is set for the dead. Or in some cases, if it's a ritual for a particular funeral, then that place is set for that particular person.  Yucca: Yeah.  Mark: And then the foods that are offered to them, which are always the best, the best cuts of whatever you have, the nicest vegetable, the prettiest piece of cake, all that kind of stuff that gets offered to wildlife afterwards, so that it goes back into the cycle of everything as we all do that there are at some of them that I've been to there have been sort of thinking prompts that have been printed on a little card next to the place settings and thinking about ancestors and then also about the animals and plants that we've eaten over time are among those prompts. That can be a very profound ritual. Actually. It's a. There's this, something about creating a special feast for the dead and, you know, having the food be very special and using the good dishes and you know, all that kind of stuff. It can be, it can be very moving actually. Yucca: And, and the silent aspect to, it seems like it would create would be create a space out of the normal, because we so often are filling things with conversation, with our phones, with our, you know, everything. But when it's silent, you are there. You're really there. Right? Where else can you be? If not there.  Mark: Yes. And it reminds you of the profound silence or silent equivalents. The death is no stimulation, no awareness. Just. Stillness. So that's a thing that sometimes people do for Sowan hellos celebration in honor, of their ancestors or of the people that have passed over the course of the last year. I'm going to back up the people who have died over the course of the last year. I really don't like those euphemisms for Def prefer not to use them. What are some other activities that you do? I know that there are some things that I do in the lead up to Hallows that are a value to be. I update my preparation documents for death every year at this time of year in October. My will, my Advanced directives for health decisions. My you know, just lists of phone numbers of people to be contacted and biographical details for an obituary and a farewell letter. And about a half page description of my wishes for the conditions under which I'd like to die. You know, I prefer to die at home. I prefer to see my friends as my health allows. I'd prefer to listen to this kind of music and have these kinds of sense around me. And Yucca: So your death plan in the same way, someone might go to the hospital with a birth plan.  Mark: yes.  Yucca: your, your death plan. Yeah.  Mark: And so I update all that stuff and then I take it to my ritual circle, dark suns Annual cell and gathering. And then we sign the documents and I have members of my ritual circle service, the witnesses for the things that require legal signatures. I believe very strongly that doing this kind of preparation is a profound gift to the people who survive you. When people are grieving, their brains are fogged and it's very hard to pay attention to details like, you know, how do I find the life insurance account number or the phone number for the the bank or the password to the Facebook account, or, I mean, any of those things and having all of that in a packet of information that can just be given to the loved ones. Is a huge weight off them. And it's something that I feel strongly we should do. Not only for them, but because having an annual think about the fact that you're going to die and making some choices about how you would like that to go, I think is very healthy for us.  Yucca: I  Mark: It helps. It helps remind us that this life is finite and that it's precious. And so that means that if there's something that's missing in your life, well, you better get to it. Yucca: Yeah. And I think that in our culture, we're, as we've talked about before, we're really scared of death and. W we like to not, we don't want to think about death because of some sort of idea that somehow if you think about it, it's going to make it. happen. Right. It's it's going to happen either way.  Mark: Right, Yucca: so, so, you know, make the best of what you've got right now. And being aware that you are going to die, you can make those, hopefully, you know, sometimes there's accidents and you're just gone. Right. But you might be able to have the chance to make those last moments more like you want them to be like you were describing in the, in like the death plan. And also a moment to step back and just be able to see is what I'm doing, what I want, because I am going to die. I've only got these, how many ever decades. Assuming everything goes great. Well, is this how I really want to be using it?  Mark: right, right. Yucca: So it's kind of that you hear the stories about people on their death bed, looking back at their life and going, I wish I had done XYZ, but this time of year is an opportunity to have a mini little deathbed each year. So you can look back and see, did I do what I want? And it's your second chance it's it's giving yourself the second chance before it even happens.  Mark: Right, right. That's very well put the, the flip side of refusing to look at the fact that you're going to die out of the fear that that's somehow going to accelerate the process is that instead what it actually does is it tends to give you clarity. Clarity about the fact that your life is going to end and that the you've got a limited amount of time. And then you can make real choices about what you want to do with the time that's allotted to you. And you don't know when you're going to die, because accidents do happen. And people get terrible diseases at young ages and lots of, lots of, you know, bad things can happen to perfectly good people. There's, there's, there's no rhyme or reason to it. It's just luck fortune.  Yucca: Yeah.  Mark: And, but at least you will know for yourself and your loved ones will. How you wanted it to be, and it also gives you a chance to write a farewell letter that says the things you want to say to the people in your life. You don't have to leave anything unsaid if you don't want to. Because I think that a lot of people on their death bed really regret that they didn't say a thing to a person whether it was an expression of love or an expression of anger or an expression of acceptance and forgiveness, whatever it is, those are important. And they can give you, I think, a sense of peace. As you pass into the death experience, knowing that that letter is going to be read and people will receive the messages that you wanted them to. Yucca: Yeah.  Mark: So that's something that I do leading up to the hellos holiday. The other thing that I do is I steep myself in the mood of the season as much as I possibly can. So we have been watching all of these Halloweeny movies many of which are just terrible hammer, horror movies, and really schlocky kinds of things. But some of them are pretty good. I mean, there's a, there's a wonderful movie with Nicole Kidman called the others, which is very eerie and, and creepy without being gory at all. It's just very, very creepy and it's, it's worth, worth seeing. There's another with Kate Blanchett called the gift, which is a sort of psychic power, supernatural things set in the deep south. Great cast in that. And then there's some of the other more standard things like the fog and and practical magic, which I watched this year, every, at this time of year, every year, because it's just so delightful. Yucca: Hm. Hm. Yeah. And depending on the place where you are too, I mean this, the time of year just outside is just really fun, right? Especially for those folks who live somewhere where you might be in a next to a maple tree or something like that, where you get to skip the amazing amounts of leaves and the beautiful that crackle when you step on them and the little and the little that chill in the wind and the spell of autumn, there's just, every place has its own really special. It's special ambiance.  Mark: Yes. Yes. Sometimes in October can sometimes be very warm where I am, because it's before the storms have come. And so sometimes we have these sort of spookily warm evenings with kind of a light breeze sort of whistling around the eaves and wind chimes tinkling a little bit. And it's all just very, very evocative. Oh, that's another movie that we always watch, which is the Halloween tree which is the animated version of the Ray Bradbury book which is a wonderful book about the season and ultimately about mortality. Yucca: yeah, these are. Good suggestions. So  Mark: So that's the kind of thing that I, and of course we decorate outside so that we can attract tricker traders and all that good kind of stuff. And I bring in a bunch of colorful leaves and use those and gourds and dried corn cobs, and so forth to decorate around the house.  Yucca: For us, we're stacking firewood. This is our better have it all stacked. Which is nice because we were in the city for years where we didn't have a stove and I grew up with a stove and we we've got one again. And it's just so wonderful to have that smell and going out and getting the wood and attempting to split it. I've got weak over the years. I've got to get strong again, to be able to split that wood, but it's gotta be done. So it gets strong over the winter.  Mark: So that did so Yucca. Do you have any activities that you do as you lead up other than splitting firewood? Yucca: Well, there's just so much happening in this season that has to get done. There's just that it's mostly enjoyable. But there's the re winterizing the house that we still have warm days. The days are quite pleasant actually, this time of year we're in the sixties and we might crawl up into the seventies, but at night it's freezing almost every night now. So there's just a lot that it's all that stuff you've been putting off all summer just has to get done. And it really is for us. November is not autumn. November is when. Right. Maybe the first week or so is still autumn, but then boom, we, we just transitioned there's autumn is super, super short. But a lot of it really is that harvest stuff. It's a pumpkin's and the, you know, taking the little animals out because this time of year, all the little spiders and little stinkbugs and all of those, they're trying to come in the house because it's getting cold out there. So that seems like maybe some sort of that's a tradition, a very necessary tradition, but here's the cup. Put it on. Nope. Out you go. I'm sorry. I don't know if I was telling you about this one. On as we were recording last week or not, but we had a Wolf spider come in to visit us that we had quite an adventure trying to get out without letting the cat see that it was there because we didn't want the cat going and getting its nose bit or pulling it apart. So we had quite an adventure there. But, but you know, other than that, it's really, we don't have a lot of specific rituals that have developed yet. And when we circle back around to this next year, you know, when the kids are older, things might shift, right. Because you know, a lot is about their wonder and excitement and, and building that foundation for them. So yeah.  Mark: but that absolutely makes sense to me. And so that brings us then to the Hallows, Sal and rituals themselves. And when you practice those in my mind is kind of a moving target. What I tend to do is the first weekend in November. And then in this particular case, one of our circle members had a conflict that weekend. And so we're doing next weekend, the weekend of Halloween instead, but usually it's just the first Saturday and we do an overnight. So it's the first Saturday and Sunday of November. And sometimes that's the sixth or seventh, but if not, it's close enough.  Yucca: Will you be in person this year? Cause I remember last year you did a, a virtual version, right?  Mark: we did this year, we are going to be in person. We're all vaccinated and we're all old enough to be we're all old enough. Not that I want any of us to stop getting older. I'm just to be clear. We're I'm, I'm the youngest person in the group. So, you know, take that for what it, what it is. The, we are doing it in person. This will be our 30th anniversary. The circle started on sell and of on Halloween actually of 1991. And so this will be our 31st ritual, our 30th anniversary. So that's pretty exciting. It, it really is And everyone who was in the circle to start with is still there. We added two more members three more members later. But everybody that, the original six they're all there. We've had people get mad and go stomping away, but they come back. It it's a family you know, it has, has the dynamics of a family. So what we do is we go to the home of two of the members of our circle and we hold th for the ritual part, we build a focus and alter at the fire circle that they have down below their house. And we lay a fire, but we don't like. The only light we wait till after dark and the only light that's coming from the circle is from the lit jack-o-lanterns that are on the alter. So we proceed down to there. And then we do a sort of upper world ritual, which is a gratitude for the things that we've had, the harvests that we've had over the course of the year. And acknowledgement of the losses that have happened over the course of the year. And then when we're ready, when we've kind of put everything down and we're ready to go, we precess into the woods to a very dark place that we fancy as the land of the dead. And then we speak to those that have died in the previous year that we miss. And we tell them that we miss them and we love them. And we're sorry that they're gone and all that, and thank you for what they gave us. We leave things in the underworld that we no longer want to keep with us stuff that is just not serving us anymore. We leave tokens of that down there. And then when we're done, which in a scary sense tends to be when we start getting comfortable, when you start just kind of, well, I don't, we can just sort of stay here. Then we browse ourselves and we marched back up, light the fire, and then we pass around pomegranate and chocolate and red wine and then sing songs and. Being alive because we've come back to life where we were we're returned from the land of the dead. It's a ritual we've been doing for decades and it's always very moving and I love those people very much. So it's a, it's a, a great, pretty simple ritual, but it's, it's a really, really profound one for us.  Yucca: It sounds amazing.  Mark: It is. It's really cool. How about you? What are the sort of ritual things that you do for Yucca: Well, the one that I do is, was mentioning it earlier is the going out for that, that private recognition of all those that made me that unbroken line of ancestors back to Luca and of all of the, the beings. Whose lives, whose lives ended for mine to continue and, and just sitting with that awareness and just thinking through each of those, the ones that I can think of. And there's always more, but I'll, I'll begin at, I usually do a circle. So cast a very simple circle and be in it. And when I do have a garden that I have an annual garden that I have done through the, the year where we are now, I didn't do an annual garden here because this is our first season, but in the future, I'll do it there where I'm in the. The plants, the dried up vines and get the, that little pokey sensation of the like the dried pumpkin buy-ins against the skin and things like that. And just hang out in that crispy, in that crispy, dead garden, right. That has produced and has been, and also, I mean, always remembering for me, there's the always remembering that, that all this death does eventually lead to more life. Like we were talking about in the decomposition episode a few weeks ago that it leads that, that we ate the plants. We ate the animals, we, and it brought our life and our life. I will be, I mean, it's, I'm an ancestor already, which is weird to think about, but, but I will be an ancestor in more ways. One day. And just that memory, that, that awareness of that mortality, just sitting with that mortality  Mark: That's great. Do you and your partner do anything to celebrate the holidays? Yucca: in the years where we can have gatherings, we usually have a like a holiday feast. So we do the, we'll do the Halloween game, which is really as Halloween, but then we'll also do like a get together feast. I don't usually call them Sabots but a Sabbath feast. because actually half of my family's Sephardic, so for us, Sabbath is preferring specifically to the Jewish holidays. So we don't call the pagan holidays. The Sabbaths like just as some people do some people don't, but for us, there are two separate things. So we, we don't have any sort of ritual you each do together, but we do have the community, if the bring people in. And a lot of those people, some of them are pagan. Some of them are not, it's more of a community thing of it. It works really well. This, this eight holidays a year with the changing of the season just works out very, very nicely. right. It kind of has a familiar feel, but it's not so often that people are just worn out by it. Like, oh, it's not special because we do it, you know, every couple of weeks. No, it's, it's longer. It's not every month. It's a little bit longer. Right. So, we look forward to being able to go back to that. But you know, we're still, we're still not quite there yet.  Mark: Sure. Yeah. I mean, we all just trying to. Get your head around the sheer magnitude of the losses from COVID it's, it's a big deal. And I know that's going to be a huge subject for our ritual in the upper part of the ritual. Getting ready to take the walk to the land of the dead, because  Yucca: There's  Mark: you can imagine you're waiting through crowds of people that just go on and on and on and on in order to get there. Yucca: yeah.  Mark: It's, it's, it's almost 5 million people worldwide now and that's just staggering. Yucca: Yeah, It's, it's been a rough couple of years. Mark: Yeah, it really has. Yucca: And to be here, I mean, we at least sort of knew that we'd still be here last, last year when we were doing this episode, but there's just been so many more people sending. Mark: Yeah. Yucca: Yeah.  Mark: I don't want to get sidetracked into that too much because there's a lot to be said about it, but I think it's all been said before by someone. And even though this is a solemn holiday, I mean, Halloween and Halloween is a sort of a sparkly, glittery fun holiday, but hellos Sowan can be a very fervent, solemn, serious holiday around the contemplation of mortality and how all things must go in time and become something else. And I feel like I feel privileged to be a part of this practice, this, this tradition in process of developing itself. To have a time of the year to contemplate all those things, to not turn my back on mortality and on suffering on the reality of, of the dark things for want of a better term in life. And we, as we talked about a couple of weeks ago, we don't mean dark in any kind of a racist sense. We just mean the kinds of things that are in the shadow, less conscious hidden, less visible, hidden. And besides that, I, I like a good, scary movie. Yucca: Yeah, I really appreciate that there are so many sides to it. I appreciate the Halloween and hollows aspect of this time of year. Because I think both are really valuable and that, that it can all kind of be true at the same time. Right.  Mark: In fact, I liked that so much that I really wish there were, there was more dimension to some of the other Sabbaths around the year. You know, this one and you'll, which of course is deeply informed by all of the mainstream Christmas stuff. They have a lot of, they've got a lot of weight. There's, there's a lot there. And when I think about some of the other holidays around the course of the year, there, there isn't quite as much there. And I, I hope over time to build rituals and traditions that, that add to the, the overall weight and sense of dimension to those, those holiday. Yucca: Yeah.  Mark: Which is part of what this podcast is for. So then all of us can, you know, figure out the rituals that are going to work for us and help us to celebrate life more because this is life and it's. It's good. Yucca: Yep. This was so much fun. Thank you, mark.  Mark: Thank you so much, Yucca. And I hope you have just the most wonderful, spooky, evocative, thoughtful, memorable, meaningful a week coming up. Yucca: Oh, likewise. And we will see All of you next week. Mark: All right. Yep. See you on November 1st.

Today's crossword was a Monday, but it was a little "crunchier" than usual., with clues that might trip up novice solvers, such as 53D, Thai currency, BAHT,  42A, Official language of Iran, FARSI, and 27D, Feature introduced to the iPhone in 2009, VIDEO). Jean (of course) tore through today's grid, but Mike found a few speed bumps - is it CATE or KATE Blanchett? The former. Is it TIG or MEG Ryan (definitely the latter).  A fine crossword, so in response to 17A, "This is my final offer", TAKEITORLEAVE it, we most assuredly will take it.

This episode not only kicks off my second season, but is very special to me as I have struggled with body image issues, using clothes to 'hide' myself and wanting to be visible but taking a duck and cover approach to people seeing me.  I got the chance to interview my friend and colleague, Carrie Montgomery on this very topic that I know so many women struggle with..finding a sense of style while finding themselves.  Carrie is brilliant in her approach and has been featured in the OWN Oprah Winfrey Network, Super Soul Sunday, Coast Living and more.  She has been the stylist to many celebrities including Kate Blanchett.  Not only does she embody what she teaches, but she is a complete badass who made some powerful changes in her own life to find health and wellness.  CLICK HERE to Grab Carrie's Heart & Soul of Style MeditationThis is a powerful, raw conversation and one that is necessary for all women to hear.

Sean answers your Marvel questions!0:22 GerritHi Sean. I'm not to educated on Thanos's history in the comics. So is the double bladed sword we've seen him with a known weapon from his past?  Or is this something new you and other comic readers familiar with him are seeing the first time?  Thanks.1:45 GerritHi Sean. Are you able to tell us when the LA premier is for Endgame and if you're attending?  Also, when is the social media embargo and full review embargo lifted?  2:15 William Ford-ConwayHey Sean, revisiting some of the MCU recently and I just finished my rewatch of Age of Ultron. I have always been one of the big defenders of the movie and honestly it keeps crawling up the list as one of my favorites, but one specific thing I noticed on this rewatch is how enhanced much of its story is now that the MCU has been further explored. There are many thematic, story and character choices that feel way more potent now that the Endgame is in sight. I could go on forever with examples, but one quick one was Thor's story (while a bit inelegantly handled) feels more important than ever. His vision warns of a future where his "godly powers" will bring about the end of his loved ones and even his people. Now this doesn't turn out literally, but eventually we do see Thor gain even more Godly powers while also facing the loss of his people, all while confronting his own guilt and responsibility for it. This made me think about how unprecedented Marvel's Franchise storytelling is that even though while all of this is not planned and there is some retroactive context and yes there's a level of us fans reading into it, it still doesnt negate that the story's previous entries have been enriched with more movies. I would say its due to Feige and team still helming the ship, whereas other franchises without that direction feel aimless at worst (early DCEU) or disconnected at best (Star Wars in my opinion). What is your take on some of this retroactive enrichment and are there any favorite examples for you?10:41 Derek BeebeHey Sean, who do you think gets the final kill shot on Thanos in Endgame? Do you have any theories on why Doctor Strange saw it was Iron Man who would defeat Thanos?13:50 AlexI'm disappointed in Feige's comments regarding how long it will take for the Children Of Atom get their own film. Is there even the slightest chance Feige is lying or just misleading us or do you feel he's 100% sincere in his comments. It doesn't make sense to me why the Mutants are now going to be playing second fiddle in terms of a priority than a C-list nobody like Shang-Chi. 34:15 AlexIn light of Feige's comments on how long it will take to tackle the Fox characters, is there still the slightest possibility that Disney can let Fox make new spinoff X-Men films until Marvel is ready to make main X-Men films set in the Marvel Cinematic Universe?27:14 Giuseppe VicarettiHey Sean, new Patron of your show and loving it so far. My question for you is what is you Favorite Marvel Movie? Not necessarily in the MCU but part of Marvel Studios.29:45 GerritDoes Thanos have any other children who could appear in Endgame?  Or were they all killed in Infinity War? 31:08 Robert KlauserIf possible, can you give quick speculations of when or where in the MCU timeline the Avengers would travel to in order to retrieve each stone if that was to be the plan for Endgame? This question is also open to anyone who's listening on the Discord also. Thanks everyone.43:56 AlexWhat's your thoughts Alexandra Shipp's comments expressing frustration that Storm hasn't had a solo film yet?  In those same comments she also said she didn't want to share the screen-time with T'Challa.  Do you think Shipp is justified in her remarks? 36:50 Keith HeveyHi Sean, the anticipation is so high right now for Endgame. In your opinion, what would be the most emotional finale the Russo's could pull off that closes the Infinity Saga, yet also pushes us forward into phase 4? I was thinking of a funeral scene for the final fallen, as everyone in the Universe attends, capped by a moment of the new core Avengers discussing what is next as a final tease for the next big bad is very lightly tease as a final stinger. Keep up the amazing work, you continue to be one of my favorite follows!!40:05 Keith HeveyWhat odds do you give for another Thor movie post Endgame, and perhaps a story of the rebirth of Asgard in Norway?42:01 Keith HeveyOver under that Thor returns to Norway to collect the shards of Mjolnir to re-use in some way or another? Perhaps to be re-forged?43:01 brentacPrimeWas anything said at the Endgame press conference about when Far From Home takes place? I assume not but was curious if it came up.43:25 brentacPrimeYou've gotten to meet a lot of the stars of the MCU. Have you ever been star struck?45:58 David RosenHey Sean and Everyone, Hope everyone is having a great week. While watching the recently released clip from End Game, and hearing that title music start to swell at the end, I started thinking about what it would be like to sit in on the scoring session for a Marvel movie, or any big movie for that matter, and watch it come to life with the addition of the final score. I'm a big movie score guy, so to watch this process happen would be the thrill of a lifetime. From inception to picture lock, if you were allowed to be a part of, or even just a fly on the wall for, one phase of production of a Marvel movie, what would you choose?50:41 Woo S! KimAre you of the same belief that I am Sean that one of the reasons perhaps not the main reason why Marvel Studios waited so long to let “Avengers: End Game” tickets go on sale is because  if “Avengers: Endgame” tickets went on sale casual cinema goers would think “why would I go see ‘Captain Marvel' when Avengers tickets just went on sale and Captain Marvel will be in that movie?”  I am sure delayed release of tickets was not just because “Captain Marvel” was near One Billion Dollars worldwide but to me, this had to be a factor in delaying the tickets for “Avengers: Endgame” what say you, Sean?53:06 Woo S! KimI have been thinking about asking you this question since “Captain America: Civil War” how different do you think the outcome of “Avengers: Infinity War” would have been, if The Avengers were not split up, I realize why Feige approved the spilt up, but do you think if everyone was on the same page, including the newbie heroes, Spider-Man, Doctor Strange, Black Panther etc., do you think The Decemation would have ever happened or even with The Avengers all on the same page, Thanos still would have accomplished his mission, what say you Sean?54:42 Woo S! KimThis may be the most personal question I may ask of you Sean.  I mentioned this on the Discord but I would like to ask you this now.  I may be in the minority here but searching out IMAX tickets on April the 2nd was very fun for me.  I haven't had many fun, happy, and or pleasant moments since moving to Las Vegas a year ago. So, to have something that did not involve my personal issues and was just about me having something fun to do, was very refreshing.  It did not even matter or bother me that I couldn't use my A-List voucher for an IMAX screening opening night because of the AMC service going down for most of Tuesday which I knew might happen so I went to a casino that has a Cinemark Cinema and I am going to see “Avengers: Endgame” in Cinemark XD instead.  My point to all of this, was my experience on April 2nd what you have been referring too about enjoying the anticipation of “Avengers: End Game?”57:03 AlexIs there still a chance we at least get the first utterance of the word 'mutant' ADR'd into Far From Home? Or do you expect  Feige to have restraint since Far From Home is still a Sony movie and he can't allow too much world-building to the future of the wider MCU since Sony doesn't have complete access to Spider-Man like they do with X-Men & Fantastic Four now?59:59 PatrickWhen the X-Men join the MCU do you think it will be with a team movie off the bat or will they start with individual movies (maybe a Wolverine movie, then someone like Storm, etc) first then build up to a team up Avengers type X-Men movie?  What would you prefer?1:01:48 Michael WeaselboyHey Sean I was just wondering when the X-Men are introduced into the MCU do you think they will do some kind of dimension merging for the mutants to appear?? I know you can say something like "Oh they were here the whole time" but that doesnt make sense to me. What do you think they will do??1:05:15 David RosenI just finished listening to your discussion with Paul about casting Angelina Jolie in Eternals. If she signs on to play a character that will have a prominent recurring role, like a Sersi, instead of a possible one-off, do you she would be considered a bigger "get" than what Robert Redford or Kate Blanchett were for there MCU roles?1:07:49 Cory KostiukHey Sean hope all is well. With the potential of Deadpool coming over to the MCU do you think it's possible for Vannessa to come back since it would be a different timeline?1:08:26 David RosenFor as well as Captain Marvel has done so far, making over $1B at the box office, I have seen, and am still seeing, conversations on social media about whether that movie is “skippable” and people asking if they can go straight into Avengers End Game and still understand what's going on with Carol. I've seen more answers than I care to acknowledge saying that her movie isn't that important, and it's probably fine to go straight into End Game because the events in her movie probably won't feature heavily into the plot. Personally, I feel this is pretty naïve, especially since people also thought that Antman and Wasp was “skippable”, but here we are now, all talking about how the quantum realm is going to play a significant role in End Game. It's hard for me to imagine that Marvel Studios would make any movie, especially Captain Marvel with all the filling in of MCU history it does, in addition to its cosmic-ness, a “throw away movie” if it wasn't going to somehow play into the events of End Game. So, what elements from Captain Marvel, aside from Carol herself, do you think could come into play in End Game? Also, if there ARE elements from the film that factor into End Game heavily, do you think Captain Marvel could get another post-End Game bump at the Box Office since it's likely to still be in theaters for another few weeks, and more people realize it wasn't a “skippable” or “throw-away movie” after all?1:17:00 Alex WardDo you think there is a chance we will see no new characters in Endgame? If we do, who do you think this film might introduce?1:20:01 Alex KleinI asked this question to you on twitter but figured it would be better suited on here. I know you stated no spoilers so I will keep it brief. I'm not sure if any of you have read the Marvel's Avengers Infinity War Cosmic Quest Vol 2 Aftermath but it is a licensed book from the movies. The jist of the story is Jane Foster, Eric Selvig, Darcy and some new recruits are trying to figure out what happened after the snap. That is the book that referred to the Snap as the Decimation. That was covered in may news sites, this "Decimation" but for some reason people are leaving out a section at the end of the book that talks about the soul stone and what is contained in the stone. Again, you can read the book for the full answer in case of spoilers, but my question is this.  I have spoken with people at multiple news sites like IGN and not a single person has cared about this news. The book specifically states some big things and is based on the movie so why is no one talking about this? Why does it seem like I am the only one who has noticed this, is there some sort of secret embargo that they are not allowed to talk about it for it being a real thing? Obviously I'd love your input on it but I know we are trying to avoid spoilers.1:24:07 AlexSean, do you think it's an inevitable that Sony will be bought out  the same way Fox ultimately was? And who do you think will end up buying Fox? I'm thinking it's Apple considering they need content for that streaming service they just announced.THE FOLLOWING QUESTION(S) PERTAIN TO OFFICIALLY RELEASE CLIPS FROM THE FILM1:30:50 Brett HeierThis question pertains to the clip released on Monday. What do you think Black Widow was referring to when she said “He used the stones again”? See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.
