From Gemini to Cancer, Starliner Twins Descend like the Titan submersible descended last Summer Solstice.Climate Activists vandalize Stonehenge. This live stream cuts off abruptly as the power went out and on again…(00:00:07):Okay, we are live.(00:00:38):Juneteenth, 2024.(00:00:41):Chief Crow, the edge is in your mind.(00:00:44):So is the curve.(00:00:47):For those of you curverts who believe there is a curve, it's in your mind, it's on the screen.(00:00:52):Same thing,(00:00:53):because it's on the screen,(00:00:54):it's on the mind of the perverted true believers and anything on the screen.(00:01:00):I've been writing an article about this argument from authority that is the basis(00:01:04):for the pro-globe side of the flat versus round debate.(00:01:09):And one of the things they never do on any of the debates is they never get into(00:01:14):the realm of media fakery.(00:01:17):So you have to remember,(00:01:18):if you're debating something,(00:01:20):let's say it's,(00:01:20):I mean,(00:01:21):because it's a frame of references.(00:01:22):And so you're talking about two different frames of reference.(00:01:25):The people defending the NASA side of things trust the news.(00:01:29):It's an authority.(00:01:30):It's an argument, and it's an appeal to its own authority.(00:01:33):It's their side.(00:01:34):It's like we get to cite our own source as an authority,(00:01:38):and that to me is the fundamental flaw,(00:01:41):because they don't even allow the possibility that their side could lie,(00:01:46):that their sources might distort.(00:01:48):It's kind of naive.(00:01:50):It's also a form of gaslighting, but we'll get into the nuance there as we go on.(00:01:55):And one more thing.(00:01:56):Even if, let's say, somebody gets sent down to the South Pole.(00:02:00):Jaronism goes down there.(00:02:02):And he watches a 24-hour sun, and they totally prove, therefore, that we're on a ball earth.(00:02:08):It doesn't change the fact that the history itself has been bent.(00:02:12):The news is bent.(00:02:13):Our worldview is bent.(00:02:14):So the IPS will remain on the same course regardless, because that's really a distraction.(00:02:20):Shape of the world is a distraction from everything else, in my opinion.(00:02:24):But there is some kind of effort right now.(00:02:27):to have some flurf go deep south and observe a 24-hour sun.(00:02:32):And I'm all for it.(00:02:33):I'm all for people getting out of the conference room.(00:02:36):See, what happened is the whole Flat Earth thing became a conference movement.(00:02:40):And then it became a cult.(00:02:42):A very bizarre cult.(00:02:43):And at its very top, they believed that the sky was made of glass and it was going to fall.(00:02:47):And that the glass would impale the non-believers.(00:02:50):Insane.(00:02:51):And I heard a rumor that there was even a piece of dome glass in the possession of,(00:02:56):somebody at one of these conferences.(00:02:59):But they didn't show it to everybody,(00:03:00):obviously,(00:03:00):because they would have invited,(00:03:01):I don't know,(00:03:02):scrutiny,(00:03:03):critical thinking,(00:03:04):well-deserved ridicule.(00:03:07):It's like bringing a moon rock.(00:03:08):I went to the moon.(00:03:10):That's petrified wood.(00:03:11):And I don't know what's in that dome glass.(00:03:15):All right, let's see.(00:03:16):Ptrippa103, ears up, do some para, Diana South, three up, three down, Ted Stryker.(00:03:21):Oh, you just watched the Newsbenders.(00:03:22):Ted Stryker says, I just watched the Newsbenders, the towers, wow.(00:03:26):Yes, I mentioned this the other day.(00:03:28):Newsbenders required watching for all Infinite Plane radio listeners.(00:03:32):You can find it on YouTube.(00:03:33):It's well worth watching.(00:03:35):It's a great hypothetical or possibly a description of how things are.(00:03:38):But it literally contains predictive programming for future faked events.(00:03:42):And one of the main events would be the Twin Towers spectacle.(00:03:46):And it's not specifically overtly mentioned, but it's kind of intimated.(00:03:50):in the background, and that was caught by Synchromorphius.(00:03:53):We talk about that a lot, and that's why I say our history is bent.(00:03:58):It's a reference to newsbenders, bending the news, steering it.(00:04:03):And I don't know if this is true,(00:04:05):but according to Michael Hoffman,(00:04:07):who wrote Secret Societies and Psychological Warfare,(00:04:10):he claimed that(00:04:13):We're dealing with,(00:04:13):essentially,(00:04:14):witchcraft in high places,(00:04:15):and he claimed that the name,(00:04:17):or the word,(00:04:18):Wicca comes from some derivative as wicker,(00:04:21):and refers to the ability to bend,(00:04:23):and he referred to it as bending history.(00:04:25):Interesting concept, but who talks about bending history in those terms, other than...(00:04:30):the newsbenders, and us.(00:04:33):Well,(00:04:33):Maxwell Azrello,(00:04:34):Burning Man 419-2024,(00:04:35):the guy who set himself on fire in front of the Trump trial,(00:04:39):had his manifesto,(00:04:40):and on the back he claimed that he and his group of people with truth glasses would(00:04:45):bend history.(00:04:46):So it's kind of an unusual turn of phrase,(00:04:48):but we've adopted it,(00:04:49):because it does perfectly describe things here.(00:04:52):The fact that our worldview is bent is far more relevant than the alleged bend or(00:04:59):flatness of the horizon okay let's see here uh yeah i'll put a link in the chat by(00:05:05):the way if you haven't seen it i'll put a link in the video notes below news(00:05:09):benders do some paris says the fringe is on your forehead exploring again.com is(00:05:15):here joined by lord laney shannon jones duo says if there's if flat earth fails at(00:05:21):least there's crypto right look i'm not married to any particular model never have(00:05:26):been(00:05:27):I could care less.(00:05:28):I mean, I do care, actually.(00:05:29):I care intensely.(00:05:29):But rather, it's not going to change anything.(00:05:32):It's not going to change our trajectory.(00:05:34):If I were to find out that we lived on a ball floating in space,(00:05:38):my next question would be,(00:05:40):well,(00:05:40):then why can't you give us a real picture of it?(00:05:43):You're giving us a misrepresentation.(00:05:44):You're filtering it.(00:05:45):You're giving us CGI.(00:05:47):So there's still a cover-up, if nothing else.(00:05:49):Maybe they're covering up an advanced civilization out there in the uncharted waters.(00:05:54):Not sure.(00:05:57):Ted Stryker says, the guy in Newsbenders, the main guy, was in the Halloween movies.(00:06:02):You know, there was something else, too.(00:06:03):And I believe this was pointed out by They Live, We See.(00:06:09):The guy from Newsbenders was going to be the voice of Hal 9000.(00:06:14):But they decided to go against it because of his accent.(00:06:17):So that alone is intriguing, because you're looking at a connection between Newsbenders and Kubrick.(00:06:22):And Kubrick is one of the principal Newsbenders.(00:06:25):So...(00:06:26):Endlessly intriguing.(00:06:27):I'm glad others are watching it and commenting.(00:06:30):Again, we'll delve back into that here soon.(00:06:34):Elephant Tusk says, Tim, I have an excellent one for you.(00:06:36):David Lynch.(00:06:39):Okay, now, I used to like a lot of David Lynch's films.(00:06:45):I always liked the soundtracks.(00:06:47):He's actually pretty much a genius.(00:06:48):I like a lot of his earlier animation work, too.(00:06:51):But does he have any predictive programming?(00:06:54):Is he in?(00:06:56):He did Mulholland Drive, which has some interesting connections to Illusion.(00:07:02):I don't know if there's a direct connection,(00:07:04):but there was this...(00:07:06):John Mulholland was an American publisher and CIA agent who wrote some classic book(00:07:13):on deception and trickery.(00:07:17):So Mulholland Drive is one of these David Lynch movies that may have some clues.(00:07:21):I think Twin Peaks may be significant.(00:07:23):Yeah, Twin Peaks.(00:07:25):I've been told it has tons of scripting.(00:07:26):I'll have to look into it.(00:07:28):Here we go.(00:07:29):The CIA paid John Mulholland $3,000 to write a top-secret guide on trickery and deception.(00:07:34):James Bond meets Harry Houdini.(00:07:37):Master magician.(00:07:39):Now,(00:07:39):what's interesting is James Bond 007,(00:07:42):that comes from John D.,(00:07:44):the original spy,(00:07:45):Elizabethan spy,(00:07:46):and codename 007,(00:07:49):also a magician.(00:07:51):But in the more literal sense, not a stage magician.(00:07:55):No, the kind that summons fallen angels to do his bidding or something.(00:07:59):That's kind of what it looked like.(00:08:00):If you get into Enochian magic, they're interacting with these beings, which they call angels.(00:08:06):But they seem incredibly apocalyptic by their rhetoric.(00:08:10):Okay, Twin Peaks, all about Saturn.(00:08:12):Well, I'll check it out.(00:08:13):I'm definitely looking forward to it.(00:08:15):Portal Complex says it's timeless.(00:08:18):Yeah, that's true of all of his films.(00:08:21):I might want to take a look, though, because there's a blogger.(00:08:24):I think it's(00:08:25):Isaac Weishaupt, who publishes similar to what we do.(00:08:30):I guess he would fall into more synchro mysticism.(00:08:34):But I believe he's done quite a bit of work on Twin Peaks.(00:08:38):Here we go.(00:08:39):Twin Peaks and the Occult Agenda with Isaac Weishaupt.(00:08:44):Occult symbolism in pop culture.(00:08:46):I started watching or listening to some of his work, but I realized I haven't seen it yet.(00:08:51):So I'm going to have to watch it before I listen.(00:08:54):but I will bookmark this podcast and I'll dig deeper into this.(00:08:58):I'm interested in all the metascriptors, and I also want to do some extensive mind mapping.(00:09:02):It'd be nice if we could do this in a Zoom conference.(00:09:05):I would like to map this out because I think the synchromystic explanation falls short,(00:09:10):and I think we can pick up the slack,(00:09:12):and we can steer it in the right direction by showing how a better explanation for(00:09:19):this seemingly rigged reality is...(00:09:22):that it's quite literally rigged from the bottom up.(00:09:26):There's no higher source here.(00:09:27):There's no higher power.(00:09:29):It's literally people in low places.(00:09:32):Hidden influencers,(00:09:33):hidden persuaders,(00:09:34):using the tactics of marketing and propaganda to condition us to accept that the(00:09:40):movie on the screen that they call news is indeed reality.(00:09:48):Tomino had said there was a recent Twin Peaks season.(00:09:51):Okay.(00:09:54):Jay Diggs says, I tried watching it three times and never been able to get more than a few episodes.(00:09:58):Yeah, I thought it was kind of slow and morose.(00:10:01):And at the time, I was just tired of movies starting off where they find a body.(00:10:05):It's like it's always they find a body.(00:10:08):But I'll give it my attention.(00:10:11):David Lynch is a very fascinating character in and of himself.(00:10:14):He was once advocating for the implementation of transcendental meditation in school.(00:10:22):You know, there's this debate about prayer in school.(00:10:24):Why don't we just let them debate and just introduce transcendental meditation.(00:10:30):Alright,(00:10:31):and I was,(00:10:32):I wouldn't call this transcendental,(00:10:33):but I was experiencing some,(00:10:35):I guess,(00:10:37):some kind of a paradoxical excitation from the Benadryl.(00:10:43):I had this really bad hay fever yesterday, that's why it put me out.(00:10:46):But I'm better now.(00:10:47):But these, I don't know.(00:10:50):I don't want to get too much into it,(00:10:51):but I was just kind of sitting there having these remarkable epiphanies.(00:10:55):And I'm like, it must be the medication.(00:10:58):I wasn't expecting it.(00:10:59):I thought I grabbed the non-drowsy.(00:11:01):So I was totally out yesterday.(00:11:02):I'm back today.(00:11:04):We have a few updates, but I mostly want to catch up on links from yesterday.(00:11:09):And it looks like Dog Days found something spectacular here.(00:11:13):Check this out.(00:11:14):This is in our Gilded.(00:11:15):And this is why you should,(00:11:16):join the IPS and get in the Gilded.(00:11:18):You find stuff like this.(00:11:19):So the chemtrail activists did some kind of vandalism act at Stonehenge.(00:11:26):Now what did they actually do?(00:11:27):What is this?(00:11:28):It looks like they dumped something all over Stonehenge, some kind of orange powder.(00:11:34):Now these aren't chemtrail activists.(00:11:35):I'm being facetious because there are no chemtrail activists.(00:11:39):These are climate change activists.(00:11:41):Climate activists arrested for spraying orange paint on Stonehenge.(00:11:46):Just stop oil.(00:11:48):One day before solstice.(00:11:50):Interesting timing.(00:11:51):Climate activists spray Stonehenge with orange powder.(00:11:55):Okay, good timing.(00:11:57):Just stop oil proves... Yeah, this is, again, eco-activists destroying stuff.(00:12:05):I don't know what the Druids did to incur their ire.(00:12:09):I can understand vandalizing,(00:12:11):well,(00:12:12):I don't understand it,(00:12:13):but I understand the mentality behind their other acts designed to outrage people.(00:12:19):Just Stop Oil took it literally one year, I think last year, and they started vandalizing oil paintings.(00:12:25):I'm like, you're that mad at oil, you're just going to go indiscriminately.(00:12:28):Oil paintings are off limits.(00:12:30):But now here,(00:12:31):I'm looking at these climate activists who are mad at druids now,(00:12:36):trying to get some attention.(00:12:38):And what(00:12:40):Dog Days pointed out is that this looks exactly like the Stonehenge Illuminati playing card.(00:12:45):Look at that.(00:12:46):It's got an orange glow between these two vertical columns.(00:12:51):It's like a little too perfect.(00:12:56):And I think this would also suggest something about the solstice.(00:12:58):If these things are markers of the equinoxes and solstices,(00:13:01):then of course,(00:13:02):I think this would suggest that this is also a solstice image on the Illuminati(00:13:07):playing card.(00:13:08):And that is an orange sun.(00:13:10):Not the yellow sun.(00:13:12):The chemtrail activists,(00:13:14):or sorry,(00:13:14):the chemtrail believers pretend they remember back when the sun was yellow.(00:13:21):You know, I think that probably comes from Teletubbies or something.(00:13:24):People form a lot of memories when they're children.(00:13:26):And I think they form these misperceptions early on.(00:13:30):And they find out later when they actually look, it's nothing like what I thought.(00:13:33):And they can't handle the dissonance.(00:13:35):So they suggest that reality must have changed.(00:13:41):Okay, covered in Tang, says Tomonoid.(00:13:44):Yep.(00:13:45):Butch and Suni Dance Kid to return from the ISS on the solstice, says Tomonoid.(00:13:50):You know, that is 100% an occult ritual.(00:13:55):The fact that they're coming down on... Now, this is what I mean.(00:13:58):The sign of cancer has this specific connotation,(00:14:01):which we talked about last year,(00:14:02):when you had the Titan submersible falling down or sinking down into the ocean.(00:14:10):So...(00:14:11):At the time,(00:14:11):I was looking into this,(00:14:12):and it turns out that you have the Gate of Man and the Gates of Heaven.(00:14:16):At the Winter Solstice, you have the Gate of Man, where, I guess, souls ascend.(00:14:22):And then the Summer Solstice is the Gates of Heaven, where souls... Here we go.(00:14:27):Gates of Heaven,(00:14:27):this old idea that relates to Cancer and Capricorn being the entry and exit points(00:14:31):of the soul.(00:14:33):So anyway, as we enter into Cancer tomorrow, the souls will enter the world.(00:14:38):Cancer is the gate through which all life begins.(00:14:40):enters matter when we first enter we and anyway this is stuff you can find on the(00:14:46):subject of the astrological meanings of the solstices and so the idea here is that(00:14:51):these two individuals the twins or rather the two astronauts they're falling down(00:14:55):on the solstice on cancer descending from the heavens incarnating and they're not(00:15:00):landing in the water they're landing on the earth which i think is even far more(00:15:05):significant because usually they splash down they're not doing a splash down(00:15:10):I'll find a piece on that.(00:15:12):Astronauts.(00:15:16):This is going to be tomorrow.(00:15:19):Well, we'll follow this when it occurs.(00:15:21):But the Starliner crew, the Boeing Starliner, are about to land and they're going to hit the ground.(00:15:29):On the solstice.(00:15:29):Good catch there.(00:15:30):And again, last year it was the Titan submersible going down.(00:15:35):So that was going down in the ocean.(00:15:37):This one is coming down from space, but it's the same basic idea.(00:15:40):In fact,(00:15:41):I was correlating,(00:15:42):and have for some time it's there,(00:15:44):the sinking of the Titanic with the falling of the space station.(00:15:48):And then you have James Cameron, Titanic, and the abyss.(00:15:53):So this is his reoccurring theme here of the abyss and outer space being sort of like the waters above.(00:16:02):There's a parallel here.(00:16:04):In fact, we were looking at the parallels between, it was, I think Apollo, was it Apollo 13?(00:16:11):that had a little bit of a period of darkness, and that was kind of similar.(00:16:17):It had an oxygen tank rupture.(00:16:18):But anyway, we were comparing the Apollo 13 to the capsule that was lost at sea for a little while.(00:16:27):Anyway, similar themes.(00:16:29):Solstice should be interesting.(00:16:31):A Hero Paranormal says, Illuminati Game Night.(00:16:35):Yep.(00:16:37):Commenter recommends The Golden Bow, A Study in Magic and Religion, Sir James George Fraser.(00:16:43):Yeah,(00:16:43):The Golden Bow is a must-read if you want to understand the mentality behind the(00:16:48):killing of the king ritual to ensure the prosperity of the country.(00:16:54):The idea that certain kings, certain bloodlines were said to be able to...(00:17:00):perform miracles, you know, healing and stuff.(00:17:02):But throughout this book,(00:17:03):he goes into the idea of the sacrifice of the king if there isn't some kind of,(00:17:11):I guess,(00:17:12):if he's not doing his job,(00:17:13):perhaps maybe the kingdom isn't doing as well.(00:17:15):They sacrifice the king, and this killing of the king, right, is described in here in detail.(00:17:20):And this was correlated,(00:17:21):this golden bow,(00:17:23):with the JFK assassination in James Shelby Downward's King Kill 33.(00:17:29):In fact, let me bring that up.(00:17:33):I could call this a must-read, but it's practically... It's arcane.(00:17:38):It really is.(00:17:39):KingKill33.(00:17:41):But it does what we do.(00:17:43):It goes into the weeds.(00:17:44):It goes into the nuance of what was the story leading up to the JFK assassination.(00:17:48):And it ties in all kinds of elements from Shakespeare, Wizard of Oz, and this...(00:17:56):killing of a king right and then also some freemasonic implications okay steve's(00:18:05):video stash says the druids were the hipsters of their day well the druids have(00:18:09):their hollywood their wands made from the hollywood and jordan maxwell said that(00:18:16):it's the druids not the jews the druids the druids that control hollywood that it's(00:18:22):all magic it's all uh(00:18:25):You know, Hollywood magic, quite literally.(00:18:27):And I think that is true in every sense.(00:18:30):I mean, I don't think you can separate media from magic and religion at this point.(00:18:36):It's all pretty much the same thing, repackaged and fine-tuned.(00:18:43):Oh, nice catch here.(00:18:44):Elisa J. says, the twins, as in Gemini, landing into Cancer, which is the next sign after Gemini.(00:18:52):That's perfect.(00:18:53):So we were noting their names.(00:18:55):Their names both have Will.(00:18:56):And their mission was delayed, delayed, delayed for this perfect time.(00:19:00):And they were twins.(00:19:02):And then were in the sign of Gemini.(00:19:03):So we're putting all this together.(00:19:05):And I was talking about the Gemini mission patch.(00:19:08):And I'll bring this up if you haven't seen it.(00:19:10):Because the Gemini mission patch appears to show 9-11.(00:19:14):You have the twin towers and the impact zones marked here by stars.(00:19:23):Gemini.(00:19:23):Gemini.(00:19:24):This is kind of like the Hilton logo.(00:19:26):You have the twin towers, and you can see the flight paths going into it.(00:19:29):But anyhow,(00:19:30):we were already looking at the symbolism of the twins going up there,(00:19:34):and the fact that they're coming down as we go from Gemini into Cancer is more(00:19:38):astrotheological scripting.(00:19:40):Very nice catch.(00:19:41):When I say that NASA is an Egyptian mystery school, I mean it quite literally.(00:19:45):I would even call SpaceX a sex cult.(00:19:50):And there's a lot coming out right now about(00:19:53):Space X and how employees are or have been treated and how it's highly charged in a(00:19:58):certain way that makes a lot of the ladies uncomfortable.(00:20:02):And you'll see.(00:20:03):There's some stuff.(00:20:03):I don't think that he's going to be like some P.(00:20:05):Diddy type,(00:20:06):but Elon Musk's Space XXX was the article that came out.(00:20:11):Allegations.(00:20:13):Now,(00:20:13):I don't really believe on any of this stuff,(00:20:15):but I think that this is rather maybe even just sort of a reveal on an esoteric(00:20:21):level of what we're really looking at here.(00:20:23):Rockets are quite literally obelisks.(00:20:25):That is their primary function.(00:20:27):Religious iconography.(00:20:28):Space travel is not their real purpose.(00:20:31):And look here on Quora.(00:20:32):I often mishear SpaceX as space sex.(00:20:35):How could others fail to notice this?(00:20:37):They didn't fail to notice this.(00:20:39):It is intrinsic to what this cult is.(00:20:41):You know about NXIVM and all these other weird sex cults.(00:20:45):Well, SpaceX is part of the same thing.(00:20:49):It's basically...(00:20:51):the highest levels of the occult merge with science fiction,(00:20:55):and it exists at the highest levels of government,(00:20:57):because we're apparently ruled over by wizards on some level,(00:21:01):or druids,(00:21:02):excuse me,(00:21:02):druids.(00:21:03):So again, tomorrow is the longest day of the year.(00:21:08):I had this comment from Linda Curtis I thought was interesting, you know, gilded.(00:21:12):She said, This morning I woke up to what I thought was a car alarm.(00:21:15):It wasn't super loud, it wasn't too annoying.(00:21:17):Then, as it was happening, I heard what sounded like a soft(00:21:21):machine gun fire.(00:21:22):I got up and I opened the back door and realized it was birds chirping.(00:21:25):I think they're learning to mimic tech.(00:21:29):Anyone else encounter anything like this?(00:21:32):Kind of ominous.(00:21:36):I've been getting into it with the chem trailers.(00:21:38):I'm not going to spend any time talking about it now,(00:21:40):but just a heads up,(00:21:42):I am writing it,(00:21:43):well,(00:21:43):I'm almost done with an e-book that I'm going to distribute here very soon called(00:21:47):Informed Disbelief.(00:21:49):It might even be informed non-belief.(00:21:51):But the point of it is, I think I have the final nail in the coffin to deal with this.(00:21:56):And it's not just about chemtrails,(00:21:57):but I think there's a certain tactic that's used by controlled opposition to lure(00:22:01):people who stray from the mainstream into the controlled opposition networks.(00:22:07):And I think I figured out their main sales pitch,(00:22:09):and I'm reverse engineering it in this e-book,(00:22:11):which you'll see.(00:22:16):Elisa J. says, cancer, 6-9 crab symbolism, next on the horizon.(00:22:20):Correct.(00:22:22):Yes, and the crab is the kraken.(00:22:26):There's a correlation here,(00:22:28):but again,(00:22:28):we're looking at last year,(00:22:31):we had these people in this submersible,(00:22:33):lost but falling,(00:22:35):going down to the Titanic.(00:22:37):And so this year, it's these two falling.(00:22:39):And this mission, again, has been...(00:22:41):Nothing but an unmitigated disaster, nothing but delays, thrusters failing.(00:22:46):The name Boeing makes it seem like it's cursed.(00:22:49):And then there's a few other elements here.(00:22:51):Let me bring this up in our Discord server.(00:22:54):A set of parachutes,(00:22:55):which Boeing redesigned and tested,(00:22:59):must slow the capsule down before it reaches terra firma.(00:23:02):Now listen to this.(00:23:04):Starliner will be the first U.S.-made capsule to parachute to a landing on the ground.(00:23:11):rather than splashing in the ocean.(00:23:13):Boeing hopes... God, that sounds like a disaster.(00:23:18):Boeing hopes it goes well.(00:23:20):Boeing hopes this will make it easier to recover and refurbish it after the flight.(00:23:23):So they're going to land on the ground.(00:23:25):What could go wrong?(00:23:27):Interesting.(00:23:29):Two astronauts wait to come home as Boeing races to understand spacecraft issues.(00:23:33):Here's what's at stake.(00:23:36):This is from CNN Today.(00:23:39):Synchromorphia said, Butch and Sunni are waiting to make their perilous trip down to Earth.(00:23:46):And their names, you know, Butch and Sunni, their last names, Williams and Wilmore.(00:23:53):Williams and Wilmore will return no earlier than the 26th.(00:23:57):Ooh, that's interesting.(00:23:59):We'll see.(00:24:00):I don't want to read too much into it.(00:24:01):It says a nail-biting finale.(00:24:03):They definitely built up a lot of tension here.(00:24:06):This is dramatic tension.(00:24:07):I don't know if any of you are feeling it.(00:24:10):But I think they want all eyes on this.(00:24:12):And I'm not a disaster predictor.(00:24:14):But I saw the name Boeing,(00:24:16):and just following off of a year of fake news about Boeing and Boeing whistleblowers,(00:24:21):I thought,(00:24:22):you know,(00:24:24):it's likely this is going to be a disaster.(00:24:27):And ever since we noticed that this was a Boeing mission, it's been a disaster.(00:24:37):Okay, this is...(00:24:42):I've got a few articles here.(00:24:43):I'm trying to go through my Discord server.(00:24:46):Someone had sent me something interesting earlier today.(00:24:48):I'm trying to find it.(00:24:51):Massachusetts had a 9-1-1 outage yesterday.(00:24:56):No purges happened.(00:25:01):Alright, phones are open.(00:25:01):If you want to call in, 563-999-3664.(00:25:02):33-year-old terrorizes New York City.(00:25:03):I should have just asked you.(00:25:10):Like, I should have just told you.(00:25:10):Hey,(00:25:11):there was this guy in New York yesterday who was on top of a 10-story building(00:25:16):throwing debris,(00:25:17):furniture,(00:25:18):bricks off the roof and terrorizing people below.(00:25:22):How old was he?(00:25:23):And every single person in chat would have said, 33.(00:25:28):New Yorker A-Hole of the Week goes to somebody in Midtown.(00:25:33):Again, 10-story building, throwing objects off.(00:25:36):People are screaming, blocking off the roads.(00:25:39):It turns out he was 33.(00:25:41):And I only say this because,(00:25:42):and I've been saying this for a couple of years now,(00:25:45):if we quarantine the 33-year-olds,(00:25:48):we could have a year of peace.(00:25:49):And if you look in history, you know how many of these individuals have been S-starters at that age?(00:25:56):And it's pretty much anybody who's anybody at any historical pivot point was 33 when he had his big day.(00:26:02):Martin Luther, 33.(00:26:03):Jesus, 33.(00:26:05):We have the QAnon shaman most recently.(00:26:08):I was like, that guy...(00:26:09):Almost killed democracy with a spear, 33, at the time that he did his thing.(00:26:14):It's a reoccurring theme.(00:26:16):It's, yeah, Pippi Langstroth says 33, you're right.(00:26:20):Every answer to every pop quiz here is 33 because it's so predictable.(00:26:23):But what does this mean?(00:26:25):You know, it made me think of like, you know, New York, buildings, stuff falling down, people screaming.(00:26:32):It's, I don't know, it's kind of on brand, I guess.(00:26:35):For the psyops they do in New York, the stuff falling from the sky is kind of a theme there.(00:26:40):And the building, it looked like a 9-11-y type scene.(00:26:43):Just the chaos.(00:26:44):But the number 33 also has this connotation of order out of chaos.(00:26:50):It's basically a calling card.(00:26:51):Like, when you see this number, you're looking at an engineered event.(00:26:57):And if you're in the know, you know not to get triggered, but to pay attention to the deeper meaning.(00:27:01):Now, what could this mean?(00:27:02):Not quite sure yet.(00:27:04):I'm not sure.(00:27:04):If anybody has any...(00:27:06):idea,(00:27:06):or what this might mean,(00:27:07):you know,(00:27:08):feel free to chime in,(00:27:09):but I don't think it's just some guy on top of a building throwing stuff off the roof.(00:27:17):Jack Danger on X said,(00:27:19):shock video,(00:27:19):most mass shootings and mass casualty injury events even shown on television were(00:27:23):done by the government.(00:27:24):Watch this.(00:27:26):Oh, I see.(00:27:27):Mass casualty actors and the government.(00:27:29):So this is a video that we've already seen.(00:27:30):I think it's great,(00:27:32):but not great that there are so many people coming around and saying,(00:27:36):hey,(00:27:36):Vegas was fake.(00:27:38):It's like, well, where were you seven years ago?(00:27:41):I knew Vegas was fake 10-1-2017.(00:27:43):Here it is 2024, and you're scratching the surface?(00:27:49):So this is a collection.(00:27:50):It's a montage of crisis actors.(00:27:53):Like this one, fun, engaging acting work in Las Vegas, $20 per hour.(00:27:59):I like these mashups.(00:28:01):This is a pretty good takedown of the Vegas event.(00:28:04):And there are a lot of Mindy Robinson and other far-right conspiracy theorist(00:28:10):influencers who are continually pushing the official lies about Vegas.(00:28:15):It was real, but it was a false flag to make Trump look bad.(00:28:19):People really died.(00:28:20):They all say this stuff.(00:28:21):But here we have video where there's someone walking around in the dark wondering(00:28:25):why they turned the lights off in the stadium.(00:28:27):I mean, think about it.(00:28:30):A bunch of people get shot in a concert.(00:28:32):And instead of paramedics rushing in to triage and save lives, the security guard shuts the lights off.(00:28:39):And this one person who obviously wasn't in on the gig is walking around and(00:28:43):everybody's saying,(00:28:43):just keep moving,(00:28:44):keep on moving.(00:28:44):They're just trying to get rid of them because they're pretending to be hurt.(00:28:48):And he asks the security guard, and the security guard just makes him leave.(00:28:53):Anyway, this video is really a bombshell, but we were well aware of this a long time ago.(00:28:59):But the reason why people are just now figuring this out is that it's safe, I guess.(00:29:04):Maybe that's it.(00:29:06):I don't know.(00:29:06):There's really no excuse, to be honest.(00:29:09):And I know why.(00:29:10):It's because they're in the MSM Plus realm.(00:29:13):If you're in MSM Plus, and that means if you still trust...(00:29:17):that the news is reporting facts,(00:29:19):but that they're just not telling you the whole story,(00:29:22):that little bit of trust keeps you locked in their false paradigm.(00:29:27):Like, you can't even assume the basic story to be true.(00:29:30):So the basic story is, all these people get shot.(00:29:33):But the alternative story is, yeah, but there were three shooters.(00:29:37):It's like, well, you didn't change the event.(00:29:40):You just changed the narrative.(00:29:42):Well, I'm suggesting that the narrative itself, the spins, are there to(00:29:47):distract you from the fact that the event never happened.(00:29:49):And what's more,(00:29:50):13 months after that event,(00:29:53):50 of the same people were shot again at another country music concert.(00:29:57):They had a sequel,(00:29:59):which was called an eerie coincidence by many,(00:30:02):but it was layered with impossibilities.(00:30:07):I mean,(00:30:07):not only was there a repeat event,(00:30:09):but there was actually a drill down the street from the repeat event consisting of(00:30:13):the same number of people(00:30:16):and it was scripted based off of Vegas.(00:30:19):So fake, unbelievable.(00:30:21):Well, no, I shouldn't say unbelievable, because everything is believable today.(00:30:26):A new agreement between Russia and North Korea states they will provide each other(00:30:29):with immediate military assistance in the event of a war.(00:30:34):Yeah,(00:30:34):I saw those two getting along rather nicely,(00:30:37):Putin and Kim Jong-un,(00:30:39):and they were kind of playfully fighting over who was going to get into the back of(00:30:42):the car first,(00:30:43):and yeah,(00:30:44):they're...(00:30:45):They're bros.(00:30:46):They have a little bromance, and they're going to, I don't know, jointly aim their rockets at us.(00:30:52):I don't believe in nukes, so I'm not intimidated by these actors in the world stage.(00:30:58):A lot of people think,(00:30:59):oh,(00:30:59):we're all being collectively held hostage by all these psychopaths with too much power.(00:31:04):No, it's all in your mind.(00:31:09):All right, let's see here.(00:31:11):Elisa J. says, well, people still think their votes count.(00:31:13):Still picking sides, dividing and conquering problem, reaction solution, order out of chaos.(00:31:18):Yeah.(00:31:20):Exactly.(00:31:21):They still think voting helps,(00:31:23):and the default position for truthers,(00:31:26):for people leaning right,(00:31:28):for people who know media lies,(00:31:29):it's always going to be the Republican candidate.(00:31:32):And I don't like this idea that every single truther is expected to vote for Trump.(00:31:37):And non-voting is not enough.(00:31:40):Non-participation is actually a(00:31:45):It's almost not even a protest because you're still taking part,(00:31:49):but you're just not taking part in those two choices.(00:31:51):It's not really outside the box thinking.(00:31:53):So this year, this election cycle, I'm not going to be a non-participant.(00:31:59):Because I say I'm a conscientious objector, and if you vote, you are a participant in the mind war.(00:32:05):But what I'm going to do is I'm going to vote for Joe Biden publicly.(00:32:08):And the reason why is that I want to trigger...(00:32:12):the truthers who still think voting matters.(00:32:15):Like, oh, you think my vote matters?(00:32:16):That me voting for Biden is going to affect the outcome?(00:32:20):Okay, well, you're still programmed.(00:32:21):So I'm going to vote for Biden as a protest vote, as an ironic vote, and as a statement.(00:32:29):Anyone else with me?(00:32:31):Anyone else here?(00:32:34):We'll form a coalition, a PAC.(00:32:40):Mizell says, North Korea sent, yeah, they did, human waste and trash-filled balloons to South Korea.(00:32:47):This is where it's at.(00:32:48):It says, I voted for Kendrick Lamar.(00:32:50):He won in a landslide, ripped Drake.(00:32:53):Nothing like fake hip-hop beef to get the blood flowing.(00:32:58):It's about getting attention.(00:32:59):You know, faking deaths has its limitations.(00:33:04):These days, right-wingers are getting arrested.(00:33:06):Previously, they were getting swatted.(00:33:08):But now, getting arrested is a thing.(00:33:13):Okay, continuing.(00:33:16):Thank you for the super chat.(00:33:17):Happy you're still here, says Elisa J. Yeah, we're not going anywhere.(00:33:19):I have a 30-year plan.(00:33:22):We're not going away.(00:33:25):In fact, I want to accelerate everything.(00:33:29):I want to double the amount of time that I spend on this.(00:33:32):We have so many projects that are not where I want them to be,(00:33:35):but it is okay because we have certain obligations.(00:33:39):First, like this legal suit, this civil suit against Google.(00:33:44):Which is going to be good.(00:33:45):I think it's going to turn out in our favor.(00:33:47):And it's really not about money or damages.(00:33:50):It's about punching Big Brother in the face for censorship,(00:33:55):marginalization,(00:33:56):for making the playing field favor mind control over free thought.(00:34:00):I mean, there are so many reasons.(00:34:02):We're really justified in it.(00:34:03):But they didn't play fair.(00:34:07):And I want their apology.(00:34:08):Because it'll be humiliating for them.(00:34:15):Yeah, and if you can't find me, go to IPS.Monster.(00:34:18):IPS.Monster, you have all of the links right there.(00:34:22):InfinitePlaneSociety.com, we're on all the platforms.(00:34:25):And we're also on all of the podcasting platforms.(00:34:30):You can also join IPS.Monster and get the archives in your inbox, or you can join at Patreon, same thing.(00:34:39):Harmon Walker has brought a box of(00:34:42):BlueWrenches into the lodge here.(00:34:45):LeanDeon,(00:34:46):BlueWrenchLodge,(00:34:47):Jennifer Reeve,(00:34:47):SaltySiren,(00:34:48):Alisa...(00:34:49):Yeah,(00:34:49):this is a membership to the IPS official YouTube channel.(00:34:54):Where I will be continuing to upload videos for members only.(00:35:00):Okay, so AlisaJ got cut off when our Discord went down.(00:35:03):They were after our network.(00:35:05):We had a Discord server going back years.(00:35:07):Tons of content.(00:35:08):I mean, it would have been worth preserving.(00:35:11):Very active.(00:35:12):However,(00:35:13):we were infiltrated by 4chan level,(00:35:16):you know,(00:35:16):little double digit pro-Hitler Nazi spam trolls from Telegram.(00:35:21):And it was terrible.(00:35:24):Because what they would do is they would spam the stuff that doesn't, it's not up to par.(00:35:28):It's MSM plus at best.(00:35:29):They're not auto hoaxers.(00:35:31):They may say this event is a hoax, but they believe everything else is real.(00:35:35):Like, they're not in the right frame of mind.(00:35:36):They didn't belong there.(00:35:37):But we didn't censor them because I was trying to be Mr. Big Tent.(00:35:41):You know, everybody's words have a platform.(00:35:43):And that's not really, I don't think that's the approach now.(00:35:47):I mean, it's not viable and it's not even smart, to be honest.(00:35:51):We have to have standards.(00:35:53):And I think the standards are too low.(00:35:55):But it set us up because as soon as they had posted a certain amount of bannable content,(00:35:59):it was very easy for Discord to just(00:36:01):WTC7 all of our hard work just like that and scatter the network.(00:36:09):But my intent this summer is to build our network back up.(00:36:12):I intend to get every former IPS listener back on the same sheet within the next couple of months.(00:36:18):I have a pretty extensive plan to make that happen.(00:36:21):Okay, new blue wrench holders, FMGR, Scott Rankin, Roam, Nicotromis,(00:36:30):Elephant Tusk says you won't be voting for Biden.(00:36:32):Newsom is the replacement.(00:36:36):Okay.(00:36:37):Well,(00:36:40):you know,(00:36:40):there is this,(00:36:41):I don't know if I believe it,(00:36:42):but you remember the whole thing with Nicole Simpson being Megyn Kelly?(00:36:46):Well, there's this other thing that Ron Goldman didn't die either, obviously.(00:36:54):But what happened to him?(00:36:56):And the rumor is he came back as Governor Newsom.(00:37:01):Now, I don't know if I can stand by this 100%.(00:37:04):I need a little more information.(00:37:05):But since we're talking about Newsom, you know, it's kind of relevant here.(00:37:13):But I don't think Biden's going to die or go away.(00:37:15):I mean, those rubber masks have a very long life.(00:37:19):Those things last thousands of years.(00:37:20):They don't age.(00:37:21):Just swap out the actors.(00:37:23):They can just keep Biden in office indefinitely.(00:37:26):Why change it?(00:37:29):If it's not broke, don't fix it.(00:37:32):Me and My Drone, Blue Wrench Lodge.(00:37:34):IFEPA73, Blue Wrench Lodge.(00:37:39):KKIN received a membership gift, Blue Wrench Lodge.(00:37:43):Awesome.(00:37:46):Okay, fascinating.(00:37:47):Thank you, Harmon.(00:37:48):Appreciate that.(00:37:52):Alright, I'm catching up on your comments.(00:37:53):There's quite a lot going on.(00:37:55):Very, very busy tonight.(00:37:57):In fact, Skyfish Notes.(00:37:58):Yes, the chats have been growing.(00:38:00):Yeah, I can give you an idea of the numbers.(00:38:02):We'll just take a quick look.(00:38:03):We have... And this is a very slow night compared to other nights.(00:38:10):Okay, we have about 70 people on YouTube right now.(00:38:14):About 30 on Odyssey.(00:38:17):And I have about the same number of people listening over at our 24-7 radio stream at Radio King.(00:38:24):Tune in.(00:38:25):So we're probably close to 150.(00:38:26):But we've generally been getting over 200.(00:38:30):Now the membership thing for the IPS channel is simply $1 per month.(00:38:38):And the reason I do this is to fund the channel one,(00:38:42):but also to give the members here a priority on the comments.(00:38:47):So if I upload a video that's behind a paywall, I will read your comments first.(00:38:51):And these videos will generally go public after a couple of days.(00:39:00):This is where it says, Biden has been used to make elderly folk look bad.(00:39:03):It looks like elder abuse in some ways.(00:39:05):It depends on the context, but there's videos of him looking lost, but there's always an excuse.(00:39:11):Oh, it's a deep fake or a cheap fake.(00:39:14):Now, a cheap fake is like a deep fake, except that they're not adding anything.(00:39:20):It's just selective editing.(00:39:22):Like in 2016,(00:39:23):they would do videos of Nancy Pelosi and they would slow it down because truthers(00:39:27):are so truthy.(00:39:28):that they alter footage, and they'd say, Nancy Pelosi's drunk.(00:39:32):She's slurring her speech.(00:39:34):It's like, no, you slowed it down.(00:39:36):That's a cheap fake.(00:39:38):And so they're saying that the videos depicting Biden as decrepit are all cheap fakes.(00:39:46):My take on it, though, was I think it's all symbolic.(00:39:50):I've been watching all these Netflix movies and noticing patterns, like Civil War.(00:39:53):If you remember Civil War,(00:39:55):They made a point to have the President Trump guy killed by a female black soldier.(00:40:02):But they chose the demographic by design intentionally.(00:40:05):And there's been this reoccurring theme throughout many Netflix shows.(00:40:10):Another good one is, I think, DMZ.(00:40:13):Then you have so many I could name here,(00:40:16):where you have this strong female protagonist,(00:40:20):president,(00:40:21):leader,(00:40:22):like we've been conditioned for this for some time.(00:40:24):Like they are getting us ready for Kamala Harris or something.(00:40:30):But my point of it is,(00:40:31):I think with Biden,(00:40:33):we're meant to see symbolically the death of whatever he represents.(00:40:40):Old white patriarchy.(00:40:42):I think it's all theater.(00:40:45):If that's even the real Biden.(00:40:47):Not that I care to get into that.(00:40:49):It's immaterial at this point.(00:40:54):Yes, we use Ko-Fi as well, by the way.(00:40:56):The Super Chat link is there.(00:40:58):And on the Ko-Fi site, I also sell a lot of artwork.(00:41:02):And tomorrow, I'm going to put up an e-book I've been working on.(00:41:05):Because we are separate.(00:41:06):What we're doing is so different from what many, many others in this area are doing.(00:41:12):And I don't want to be confused with them.(00:41:16):So, for example, I advocate informed non-belief.(00:41:22):If you're going to say something's not real, you should be able to know why it's not real.(00:41:26):Not just, it's not real because I don't believe it's real.(00:41:29):That's childish, and it doesn't really work that way.(00:41:33):It's not enough just to hand wave evidence that you don't like away,(00:41:37):and only look at the evidence that you favor,(00:41:40):or that favors your position.(00:41:41):It's intrinsically dishonest.(00:41:43):So we're not auto-disbelievers.(00:41:46):No, the auto-believer, the person who automatically believes the news, is not thinking.(00:41:52):The person who automatically disbelieves without investigating why they don't(00:41:55):believe it,(00:41:56):they're not really thinking.(00:41:57):They're reacting.(00:41:58):They're just taking a reactionary position.(00:42:01):But there's an informed,(00:42:02):principled non-belief that arises from knowing why you know it's fake or why what(00:42:08):has been presented as the explanation(00:42:12):doesn't weigh as much as this other possibility.(00:42:15):So it's really about suspending judgment and looking at the facts,(00:42:19):not choosing the narratives that fit one's particular biases.(00:42:26):Daniel Kirby has joined us.(00:42:28):He says, they parodied a truth or con and mentioned Tom Hanks, Oprah, Isaac Cappy.(00:42:33):Oh, yes, yes.(00:42:34):It's called The Boys, I believe.(00:42:35):And we played some of that the other day, season four.(00:42:40):And it's some TV show where they were kind of making fun of QAnoners, Trumpers.(00:42:46):Well, they weren't even making fun of them.(00:42:49):It wasn't even a parody.(00:42:51):They're talking about Tom Hanks being a Satanist and hot dogs and tacos and pizzas(00:42:57):being ways of representing boys and girls that they're selling to the elite for the adrenochrome.(00:43:03):Like, that's not parody.(00:43:04):That's what QAnon actually believes.(00:43:07):That's what they actually say.(00:43:08):In fact, they didn't go far enough.(00:43:10):They didn't go far enough.(00:43:12):I don't think it can be a parody.(00:43:14):I mean, Q is pretty much a Poe.(00:43:16):It's a parody of extremism,(00:43:19):but it's such a good parody that you can't tell whether they're being serious or not.(00:43:26):This comes from Poe's Law,(00:43:28):an adage of internet culture which says that without a clear indicator of the(00:43:31):author's intent,(00:43:33):any parody or sarcastic expression of extreme views could be mistaken as a sincere expression.(00:43:40):of those views.(00:43:43):Like the QAnon shaman, for example.(00:43:45):Does he believe any of what he says?(00:43:47):No.(00:43:48):It's not even believable.(00:43:49):It's not even congruent with anything else that he espouses.(00:43:53):But,(00:43:54):you know,(00:43:54):he walks out there with his buffalo costume,(00:43:56):his spear,(00:43:56):he probably smells like roadkill,(00:43:58):he's got the Braveheart face paint,(00:44:00):just running around yelling freedom,(00:44:04):and(00:44:05):You know, it's hard to say.(00:44:06):This guy's not serious.(00:44:07):Like, he looks so real.(00:44:09):And unless he tells us he's just kidding, you'd have no way of knowing.(00:44:13):Like, he really committed to the bit.(00:44:20):Jay Dick says, I posted this in Gilded earlier.(00:44:22):The character who gave the speech was based on MTG.(00:44:26):Oh, easily.(00:44:27):Easily.(00:44:28):What they'll do is they will take real-time characters on the world stage and(00:44:33):insert them into the entertainment,(00:44:34):and they barely disguise it.(00:44:36):I mean, they don't even conceal it.(00:44:38):In 2016, they were killing Donald Trump in Central Park in the Julius Caesar play.(00:44:45):The recent Tom Wolfe adaptation, A Man in Full on Netflix, is 100% based on Trump.(00:44:51):as we've been discussing okay let's continue so tomorrow the astronauts will be(00:44:59):landing on the ground first time ever what could go wrong cancer we're entering(00:45:04):into cancer from gemini and there's two of them like twins like gemini twins the(00:45:10):timing of it is too perfect okay the lady that gave the speech hitting all the(00:45:16):pizzagate q anon talking points was based on marjorie taylor greene(00:45:21):I see it.(00:45:22):Eric Kripp says Marjorie Taylor Greene was the inspiration for Firecracker in The Boys Season 4.(00:45:27):Quote,(00:45:27):you have these Trumpspawn that are trying to outdo each other for how outrageous,(00:45:33):sexualized,(00:45:34):gun-toting,(00:45:34):and slavishly obedient they can be with Homelander.(00:45:38):He would start to create the spores that would grow into these other characters,(00:45:40):and she's a version of that.(00:45:45):It's a strange cast of characters, all these attention chasers.(00:45:50):MTG, Jack Posebeck, Nick Fuentes.(00:45:54):And it's all a cult of personality.(00:45:56):And Nick Fuentes running around like a goofball doing the invisible accordion like he's Trump.(00:46:01):Pretending like he's getting kicked out of Turning Point USA in order to create a scene.(00:46:07):And that's all it is.(00:46:08):It's a scene.(00:46:09):There's no political platform here.(00:46:12):And they're all hypocrites.(00:46:13):And none of them believe any of what they say.(00:46:15):At least I haven't seen any indication to think so.(00:46:21):Alright, moving on.(00:46:22):Again, climate protesters spraying orange, and that matches an Illuminati playing card.(00:46:29):No coincidences there.(00:46:31):Alright, I'm going to go through my Twitter feed.(00:46:37):If you follow me, it's IPS Insider.(00:46:38):Now, this was found by, they are already here.(00:46:42):During the production of 1968's 2001 A Space Odyssey, Davenport(00:46:49):read the lines of Hell 9000 during the computer's dialogue with the other actors.(00:46:55):However,(00:46:56):Stanley Kubrick thought Davenport's English accent was too distracting and he was dismissed,(00:47:02):and they brought in Douglas Raine.(00:47:04):But the significance here?(00:47:07):Newsbenders about those individuals behind the scenes that script our reality is,(00:47:16):at the very end,(00:47:16):it's kind of like(00:47:21):Following the same theme, they bring up this supercomputer.(00:47:24):So they're suggesting that the Newsbenders have accessed some supercomputer that is(00:47:29):actually writing or guiding them,(00:47:31):giving them the scripts.(00:47:33):So it's interesting that they throw it in there at the end because this is,(00:47:37):again,(00:47:37):Newsbenders,(00:47:38):1968,(00:47:39):same year as 2001,(00:47:40):Space Odyssey,(00:47:41):where you have HAL 9000.(00:47:42):And HAL 9000 has, it's the all-seeing eye, you know, it's this all-seeing lens.(00:47:49):But I think it represents the architect behind everything.(00:47:54):And ultimately, that's kind of what Newsbenders is about.(00:48:00):So it's just notable that the character from Newsbenders was the voice or could(00:48:03):have been the voice of Hell 9000.(00:48:05):All right, catching up on your comments.(00:48:12):Lean Dion says, Watched a recent Simpsons episode, Marge and Lisa Train to Go to Mars.(00:48:16):And at the last minute, the rocket launch is called off because the owners admit it's all fake.(00:48:20):And they did it to inspire the public?(00:48:23):Okay, that sounds almost like too real.(00:48:29):Here it is.(00:48:29):Lisa signs up for an opportunity to be part of a mission to colonize Mars in 10 years.(00:48:35):And Homer's strategy is to use reverse psychology to talk her out of it.(00:48:38):Backfires.(00:48:39):Okay, I'm going to look into this.(00:48:40):The Margian Chronicles.(00:48:44):Lisa goes to Mars Part 2.(00:48:46):So this has been a thing with her, hasn't it?(00:48:49):So going to Mars is code for a communist revolution.(00:48:53):And when I say communist,(00:48:54):I mean lowercase c.(00:48:56):It's about converting humanity into propertyless serfs,(00:49:00):or slaves on Martian bases,(00:49:02):on communes in distant remote places,(00:49:06):which won't really be on Mars.(00:49:08):It'll probably be beneath the Denver airport.(00:49:10):So if you buy an expensive, overpriced ticket to Mars, you're not really going there.(00:49:14):you're going to hyperloop to some Truman Show with red sand and a sky that's designed to look like Mars.(00:49:22):So I finished watching Fallout,(00:49:24):and in the Fallout shelters,(00:49:25):they do create these total environments with projectors where it looks like you're(00:49:28):in the middle of a cornfield.(00:49:34):But I don't think they're capable of faking Mars for millions of people to really be in a fake habitat.(00:49:42):I think the way they will really do it is the first Martian colonists will all be NASA actors.(00:49:47):And we'll be interacting with them here on Earth.(00:49:49):Just like we do with the ISS.(00:49:51):They have to go in stages.(00:49:52):So after the space station, it'll be Mars bases.(00:49:56):They'll probably do Mars before the moon.(00:49:58):Anytime they do anything on the moon, it always has to be the far side.(00:50:01):Like China is building stuff on the other side.(00:50:04):Like why can't you do it on our side?(00:50:05):So we can look at it through our telescopes and just shut down that entire conversation.(00:50:15):Alright, now I'm looking forward to this Boeing-Starlink disaster tomorrow.(00:50:21):Oh, this is nice.(00:50:22):Brett Flat Earth Bible posted this.(00:50:25):He said, did you know there's no sound in a vacuum?(00:50:29):Because there's no medium for the sound to vibrate off of.(00:50:32):So then why do we hear the astronauts making sound on Apollo 16 videos?(00:50:38):So here's a short clip where a man takes the air out of a(00:50:45):glass jar in which there's a bell, and it shows that there's no sound in the vacuum.(00:50:50):And then after this,(00:50:51):it cuts to a shot from Apollo 11,(00:50:54):where you can hear the astronauts,(00:50:55):and I think they're caught making noise a number of times,(00:50:58):you know,(00:50:58):hammering in stakes and stuff.(00:51:05):Now I think you can hear the bell quite clearly.(00:51:09):And that's a very nice experiment to demonstrate how... So it was soundless and then it made noise.(00:51:16):Well now here we're looking at Apollo 16 audio analysis summary.(00:51:22):Initially the audio investigation began with the fact that hammer strikes were(00:51:25):heard and recorded on the moon.(00:51:29):And here's what we have.(00:51:32):And they enhance the audio,(00:51:33):they remove background,(00:51:34):and you do indeed see that his motions correspond to the noise that he's making.(00:51:39):Thank you, Doosan Para.(00:51:43):The IPS appreciates the support.(00:51:46):And you're hearing it through the vacuum of space.(00:51:50):Yeah, thank you very much, Doosan Para.(00:51:52):Appreciate that.(00:51:53):Keeping gas in the think tank.(00:51:57):All right, here we go.(00:51:58):This is a clip from this analysis of the Apollo 16 videos(00:52:03):Loud mechanical sounding strikes.(00:52:05):Clearly heard again.(00:52:06):Now everyone talks about Apollo 11 like it's the event.(00:52:11):Like 9-11.(00:52:11):They focus on the big ones.(00:52:14):But all the other events are where they really screw up just as much.(00:52:18):And I think we've got to look at many of these other missions as well.(00:52:22):Like I think there's a lot of shady stuff about the golfing on the moon.(00:52:25):That's probably fake as well.(00:52:34):Noise removed, re-synced, amplified.(00:52:40):And... Okay, you hear that little knock, knock, knock?(00:52:44):Yeah, that corresponds to his hand banging on something.(00:52:47):You're hearing it through the vacuum of space.(00:52:56):More sound from the rover.(00:53:01):Okay, a lot, there's a lot of noise up there.(00:53:04):I'm not going to play the entire thing, but I did tweet about it, and I put a link on myminds.com.(00:53:12):So it's pretty noisy up there.(00:53:13):I don't know what the excuse is.(00:53:14):They probably have one.(00:53:15):They'll say it has enough of an atmosphere.(00:53:17):They'll make up something.(00:53:20):They're masters of moving the goalposts, of moving the curve back.(00:53:25):Do you remember the old days?(00:53:26):It was like 8 inches per mile squared.(00:53:28):And it's like, uh-oh, P900.(00:53:30):Now it's like, no, there is no curvature formula.(00:53:36):Jay Diggs says all their time would have been spent adjusting the camera settings(00:53:39):for the 40K pictures they took.(00:53:43):Well,(00:53:45):people who are advocates of the moon landing hoaxes will reference these photos,(00:53:49):and they'll say this can't all be fake,(00:53:50):and you have to understand,(00:53:52):they don't understand that it's a movie,(00:53:54):and it's a self-contained universe,(00:53:55):and it assumes its own validity.(00:53:58):And that's how these debates always go.(00:54:01):The globe side, the moon landing side, will always...(00:54:06):operate under the assumption that we're all in agreement that their video is(00:54:11):scientific evidence and it's unimpeachable.(00:54:14):All of the space photography,(00:54:15):space video,(00:54:16):all the spacewalks,(00:54:18):ISS stuff,(00:54:19):yeah,(00:54:19):that's scientific evidence.(00:54:21):And they can't operate outside of that premise.(00:54:24):Therefore, any debate with a Glerf is invalid and pointless.(00:54:30):It is absolutely pointless to debate somebody about the shape of the world(00:54:35):When they don't even realize that media fakery is responsible for their worldview itself.(00:54:42):That you cannot understand,(00:54:44):or rather you could not fully arrive at this worldview were it not for special effects,(00:54:49):media fakery,(00:54:50):perception management,(00:54:51):and lies.(00:54:52):And a bunch of liars.(00:54:55):In fact, let me put this up here.(00:54:56):This is Faith in Globe.(00:54:58):This is on my sub stack.(00:55:02):Lean Dion says, Micro Sound Pockets.(00:55:05):That would explain it.(00:55:06):Sort of like when the astronauts drop things on the space station and things fall to the ground noisily.(00:55:12):Like one astronaut is showing off as a cosmonaut.(00:55:16):He's showing off the bathroom facilities and he drops a screw on the ground and it(00:55:21):hits the floor noisily.(00:55:24):And he picks it up and I'm like, wait a minute here.(00:55:27):I didn't think there was gravity up there.(00:55:28):What happened?(00:55:29):And they said, oh, it's microgravity.(00:55:32):So apparently...(00:55:33):Little pockets of gravity are out there that will cause your stuff to fall.(00:55:37):If you believe it.(00:55:42):Skyfish says, Imagine Star Wars space fighting scenes without sound effects.(00:55:46):Wouldn't be as exciting.(00:55:48):Yeah, no kidding.(00:55:49):No kidding.(00:55:50):I hadn't considered that.(00:55:52):And most people's concept of outer space is an amalgamation of science fiction movies and...(00:56:01):whatever NASA shows us.(00:56:02):They actually merge the two.(00:56:04):That's what the whole two into one, the whole monolith thing is all about.(00:56:08):Merging real with fake, dragging us onto a movie set.(00:56:11):And our frame of reference is basically Hollywood.(00:56:15):Basically, fiction.(00:56:18):We have a fictional frame of reference because we live in a fictional universe.(00:56:22):A collectively agreed upon mass delusion.(00:56:26):When I say we, I mean everybody but us.(00:56:29):Faith in globe.(00:56:31):a comment on the present state of flat earth debate.(00:56:34):There has yet to be a single legitimate flat versus round earth debate.(00:56:37):Why do I say so?(00:56:38):Because every single one grants the globe proponent the ability to appeal to the(00:56:43):authority of their own source.(00:56:45):If all the images and videos of outer space,(00:56:48):allegedly taken from outer space,(00:56:50):are assumed to be real,(00:56:51):then there cannot be an honest conversation,(00:56:54):much less a resolution via debate.(00:56:58):It would be like debating the existence of a deity,(00:57:00):but with the stipulation that skeptics cannot question the veracity of the claims(00:57:05):made by the priesthood,(00:57:06):who are said to have seen their god while atop a high mountain.(00:57:10):If claims to divine authorship of scripture cannot be challenged, there's no room for skepticism.(00:57:17):These constraints would render an honest debate impossible.(00:57:22):So the globe proponents...(00:57:23):refuse to take into account the role of special effects,(00:57:26):Photoshop,(00:57:27):video editing,(00:57:28):lies,(00:57:28):false witnesses,(00:57:30):in the formation of their belief.(00:57:31):Therefore, their own ignorance and visual illiteracy are a protective mechanism.(00:57:38):This is analogous to faith in the religious context,(00:57:43):which I don't have a problem with faith in the religious context,(00:57:46):but people today have faith in media,(00:57:50):in their pundits,(00:57:52):in the screen.(00:57:53):And this idea of faith is often,(00:57:57):you know,(00:57:58):in religion,(00:57:59):it's how people get around things they don't have any evidence for.(00:58:03):You can just lean onto your faith.(00:58:06):Well,(00:58:06):what the globe proponents do is they ignore the discrepancies,(00:58:09):they ignore facts that contradict their beliefs by trusting their source even harder.(00:58:15):I used to call them, you know, it's like screen thumpers.(00:58:17):You know, you've got Bible thumpers.(00:58:19):Well, these guys were like pointing at their screen.(00:58:20):Like, I saw it on TV.(00:58:21):I saw it on TV.(00:58:22):Sorry, that's not an argument.(00:58:24):But the Globe proponents already concede the debate when they hand-wave away(00:58:29):questions about the video content from space agencies that discredits outer space.(00:58:33):I've dealt with this before.(00:58:35):I will show them something on the ISS that is obviously fake,(00:58:38):and they will scurry away saying,(00:58:40):that's not my claim.(00:58:43):And then they want to take the conversation into an area where they have expertise.(00:58:47):But the Globe proponents will forever ignore media fakery as though it doesn't exist.(00:58:52):So when they wave it away,(00:58:54):and they say, oh, you're just incredulous.(00:58:56):They're actually losing the debate.(00:58:58):From an honest perspective, they're losing.(00:59:03):The fact they ignore evidence means they're not honest with themselves or their own perceptions,(00:59:09):A.(00:59:09):Or B,(00:59:10):they're incapable of discerning real from fake.(00:59:14):And if you're incapable of discerning real from fake, then what qualifies you(00:59:21):to debate the shape of the world or our cosmology or cosmography.(00:59:27):So again, the state of the debate is that it's abysmal.(00:59:31):And the only tenable position in 2024 is shape agnosticism.(00:59:36):If you're not a shape agnostic, you're confused right now.(00:59:48):All right, moving on.(00:59:53):Lean Dion says, Universal Studios has the current ball model decades before it was seen by NASA.(00:59:59):Well,(00:59:59):I think the Universal Studio logo,(01:00:02):the globe with the word universal,(01:00:05):I think that's a perfect emblem or idol.(01:00:08):It represents the, I guess you'd call this the idol, the globe.(01:00:14):It's an idol, it's a representation of our one world.(01:00:20):perspective our one view our shared consensus mass delusion but the word universal(01:00:25):itself is notable because it's the it means uh catholic catholic it's it's the same(01:00:34):thing it's it this is the new world order's um new newest iteration you know the(01:00:42):old world order is the new world order it's the same thing so here you have the(01:00:46):idea of you know(01:00:47):the church as being universal,(01:00:49):well,(01:00:49):you could argue that the space religion of nascentology is universal.(01:00:54):Because whether you're a

We also discuss the perspectives Catholics and protestants have of one another, the origin of Alcoholics Anonymous (spoiler, it's Christian), and whether or not AA is a cult.

Hi. These are my two friends that I just met through. That's a fucked up podcast, and we had a blast hanging out and, and, and interview doing an interview. I had a blast hanging out with them and doing an interview with them.And so we decided to do this episode. Fallon grew up similar to me in evangelicalism and Ashley did not. So we're going to play a game called Stuff Christians Say, where Fallon and I are going to introduce Christian sayings to Ashley and ask her what she thinks they mean. And this is a like Not a pass fail like no, like there's, there are no stakes here other than testing your Christian, your Christian knowledge before I, I'm going to play a video, a little video to, to get us warmed up, but before I do that.Ashley and Fallon. I would love to hear what brings you here today. Ashley, go Ashley: first. What's up, Kathryn? [00:01:00] Hey! Super excited to be here. So yeah, I have a podcast called that's so fucked up and it's about Colts and murder and other generally fucked up stuff.Although I would say I primarily focus on Colts and coercive groups and I can high control groups. Obviously that's more where your podcast and your stories fit into. I saw Jesus camp 17 years ago when it came out in 2006. I saw a bunch of evangelical children being brainwashed at a camp to Take abortion out of the you know, take abortion rights away because a third of their fucking friends could have been there that night and they weren't.And then I saw it 17 years later, like right after our abortion rights got taken away. And I was like, hold on, this is a long game. And then I saw shiny, happy [00:02:00] people and I've been obsessed with high control, coercive Christianity ever since. So I'm very excited to have met you through me and Fallon doing a segment called the new f word.The f word was fundamentalism fundamentalism and Actually, it's really funny or it's actually really fun the episode that Catherine was on was called the new f word the C and F and E words Which sound like they're going to be really bad, but it was Christianity, nationalism, fundamentalism, and evangelicalism.So, you know, really, I had a lot of fun. I thought that was fun. Katherine: That was one of my funnest, my funnest or most fun. I don't know. Funnest, funnest episodes that I've ever, ever interviewed on. I had a great time with y'all. Ashley: I wanted to make sure that we knew what the fuck we were talking about before we started [00:03:00] talking about it, because as you said, I have, I am not religious, I did not grow up with any religion, I have a Patreon segment where I learn about the Bible, it's called Ash Learns the Bible, because I knew about that one story, I think Solomon, where they try to cut the baby in half, and I was like, That is fucked up.Is there other shit like that? Because I want to hear about it. So, basically, I guess what I'm trying to say is that Christianity has taken over my life somehow. Katherine: That's an intellectual exercise. Ashley: Yeah, not in That I'm involved with it, but I'm just fascinated and I'm fascinated Katherine: when I meet people who didn't grow up the way that I did because it's so normal and it's so normalized and then as you mentioned on the episode that we did together that I will link in the show notes about How 80 percent of [00:04:00] the United States identifies as Christian, there's so much that's just like very inundated into the culture and most people have had some kind of like church experience.And so when I can't encounter people who don't have any, any upbringing in that I'm fascinated by that. What was your life like? Yeah, it's like, oh! How did you, how did you do Ashley: that? I'll tell you, I'll tell you one thing that made my life different and a lot better that I definitely know, and Did I grow up with fear and shame as a child?Yes, I grew up in a house with a narcissist. But, I tell you what, I was not afraid that any fuck up that I did was going to get me sent to hell. I didn't even know about hell, you know? Like, you guys were constantly in fear that you were going to go there. I didn't even know that it was a fucking thing. I think I saw all dogs go to heaven and...I knew heaven was like a, probably a cool place for [00:05:00] dogs. Yeah. But that was the extent of my knowledge. Right. I love it. I love it. And it has been up until, up until pretty recently. I Katherine: mean, you're going to know so many things after today, after our game today, the lingo. Yeah. And I, I, I, I'm now I'm like worried.Is God going to judge us for playing this game? Fallon: God is not going to judge us for playing this game. Ashley: They loves it, but welcome Katherine: Fallon. Tell us today. Fallon: mainly to talk to you again, cause it was so fun the last time. But then also, like you said, I, I think I've told you before, but I grew up Catholic. So, you know, Catholics are very like religion at arm's length.There's so many rules. There's very like, you know, you spend a lot of money and you go to mass and the mass has like exercises in it where you stand up and sit down a lot and kneel. And my mom used to, or my uncle used to call them the Pope's aerobics when he would go to [00:06:00] mass. And. Around like high school.I started to hang out with Christian people who are more in the evangelical crowd, and I, I think I just wanted to be accepted by somebody. Katherine: Pause. You said you hang out, you hung out with Christian people. Did you not consider yourself a Christian as a Catholic? Fallon: No, not really. Because I wasn't, I wasn't really yourself.Catholic. Yeah. Just Catholic. Like it was like it was I don't know, like it, like it was a nationality or something. Like I, I didn't have a concept of what it meant to be religious because I wasn't really connected to my religion. Like it like you had to go to the dentist, but you just had to do it more frequently.It wasn't like a big deal to me. And then I, I wanted some, like. I want to say I wouldn't, wasn't like meaning and purpose to my life, but I ended up hanging out with kids that like went to church camps and did God stuff. So they bought me my first Bible, the little. [00:07:00] Like tie dyed teen study Bible everyone had in the mid nineties, you know, and They had like the little stories in it and they taught me all about purity culture.Yay. And like good friends do and and then I sort of went on my own path and discovered You know, religion and church when I was in college and then in when I was in the Navy, I got like rebaptized again and I was like fully into it. I would say only about eight years ago, I stopped believing in going to church.And I would call myself having been like evangelical during those years. And now I would call myself. I don't know. What is it called when you believe in a higher power, but not necessarily like the Christian Katherine: God? Spiritual, but not religious. Yeah, that's Fallon: a good Ashley: way. Like I think that agnostic means that you believe in a higher power.You just don't claim to know what that higher power is. And I don't know if something greater than you. Fallon: Yeah. So I don't know if there's like a higher one power or if it's like the power of the [00:08:00] universe. I think there could be. You know, there's like weird forces out there. I believe in ghosts and maybe reincarnation and all that kind of stuff, but I don't subscribe to like a, a religion.So I don't I don't find I need it anymore. But then I met Ashley like last year and somehow found myself on this crazy windy road to becoming one of her co hosts, which has been amazing. And we did this F word segment together where I got to meet you. So I think that's, I think that's my path.That's my my journey here. Katherine: As you were talking, I thought of two other things to add to the list. It's like, we can't just assume because like, we're too like, like, yes, we're more religious people, assuming that, you know, certain things, but I'm like, we can't assume that Ashley knows these things. Ashley: Yeah, I actually had two quick questions.So if you're re baptized, That means you're a born again Christian, which means you're evangelical, right? I just want to make [00:09:00] sure, do I have that right? It's a symbol, Katherine: but could mean a lot of things. It Fallon: could mean a lot of things. Katherine: Like Presbyterians will baptize babies, and it's like a future hope. Like, we're hoping that they will be a Christian in the future, but it's not saying that the baby is a Christian.Like Baptists will baptize someone as an adult because you have to be old enough to like make the decision yourself. And then that is a symbol that you are a Christian when you are baptized as an adult. So it's different for everybody, but it's like more like a Ashley: ceremony. And so being born again, that doesn't equate to evangelicalism.It is. It does. Yeah. It can be. Not always though. See, this shit is slippery. It is. I mean, what? I Katherine: haven't heard of anyone outside of evangelicalism using born again Fallon: though. No, that's really a, that's really a, an evangelical kind of terminology. [00:10:00] Which Katherine: means that you have accepted Jesus into your heart.Totally. Ashley: Totally. Yeah. You guys, I put up a video the other day because I, I don't know if you saw it on the story, but it said, when you take your friend to church and they don't know what to do with their hands, and this girl is slowly doing the Macarena.Katherine: that would 100 percent be me. I'd be like, I don't know what's happening. Ashley: They're all raising their hands. Katherine: I remember. Fallon: Go ahead. Oh, I was going to say my stepfather was not a religious person and my mom used to make him try to go to mass. She quickly abandoned, but he would walk into the church and he, he would go, what am I supposed to do with water?Like there's a bowl of water. What am I supposed to do with it? And I was like, stick your fingers in it and then blessed yourself. And he's like, what do you mean blessed yourself? And I, so we, we taught him up, down, left, right. And so then anytime we mentioned church for like [00:11:00] the rest of. Their marriage, we'd be like, we're going to church.And he just like, yell up, down, left, right. Like that was his synonymous word for with church in church. Katherine: Oh, yeah. Ashley: I love it. But they told me that spectacles, testicles, wallet, and watch was to help people to remember how to do the Katherine: Austin Fallon: powers told you that Ashley: bitch. Another person, religious person Katherine: told me that I swear, I swear, Ashley: or I'm making weird shit up.Also, you guys, the video I was just referring to, I believe was from Deuteronomemes, which is my favorite new account. I'm gonna follow them after. Fuck. You gotta go follow them. They put amazing Videos of like mega church pastors, wild and out and people going way too hard singing at church. Like it's, it's, it's really good stuff.You guys, Katherine: I'm going to, I'm going to follow them [00:12:00] after, but in preparation for this game, I'm going to play a little video for us and folks who grew up. Religious probably I've seen this video, but this is just going to get us warmed up real quick and let's get warm, share my screen. So I'm so Ashley: excited Katherine: and here we go.Bless his heart. You think he's backsliding? I think I saw him drink. Yeah, but in moderation. I just wasn't seeing much fruit. He's going down a slippery slope. How's your heart, man? How's your heart? I'm just such a words guy. It was a total God thing. I'm blessed. Been working on my testimony. Is that secular music?We're opening with a secular song tonight. Wait, is this a secular song? Isn't she secular? Which station is the fish? 104. 3, the fish. Safe for the whole family. You know he's a believer. I think he's saved. I just pray you'd give him traveling mercies. Pray for all powers unspokens. I echo that. I just really like to echo Pather's prayer, Father.I echo that echo of my echo of his echo. I really [00:13:00] feel like I'm being released from this, you know? I'm trying to be relevant. I'm just trying to be in the world, not of it. Hey, do you want to join our small group? You want to join my D group? You want to join my cell group? Community group? Access group?Accountability group? Axe 27 group? Dude, he brought it. He brought the word. That service last night rocked me. They're pretty purpose driven. Yeah, it's Seeker. Don't they do Seeker service there? I feel like he's gotten really watered down. I don't feel like he really teaches the word. It's just not enough meat, you know?Are they non denom? We have a great Wednesday night supper. Let's invite some dudes over and fellowship tonight. We're gonna have a sick time of fellowshipping tonight. Dude, we had the sickest fellowship last night. We're going straight velocity. Ignite. Yeah, I'm going to ignite. The edge. The dive. The bridge.The ramp. Fire. Courageous. Passion. Echo. Reverb. Noise. Velocity. Drive. Elevate. Radiate. 722. 635. 419. Orange. Blue. Yellow. Green. Clear. Neon. Catalyst Conference this year. I don't do that because I feel like it ruins my witness. Been struggling with that. I'm really wrestling with a, I'm wrestling with a doubt.Need someone to hold me accountable. I'm really trying to be intentional with her. I'm [00:14:00] pursuing her, for sure. I'm trying to guard her heart. Guard her heart though, bro. Do you hold me accountable to that? Yeah, well, Bounce your ass. Dang it. Crap. Shoot. Sheesh. Frick. Darn it. What the H? Holy crap. Son of a bee sting.Dude, he's really teeing me off. I'm gonna kick his ass. Are you assing me right now? Not cool. I find that offensive. I find that offensive. I find that Fallon: offensive. Oh my god. I don't care how many times I watched that. I watched it right before you got on the call and I watched it yesterday and I still laugh every time, every time because it's, it's.It's Katherine: so real and that's literally how people talk though. Ashley: Let's have some fellowship. I want to say that I understoodmaybe about 20 percent of that. Fallon: This game is going to be amazing. We should watch Katherine: it again at the end and see if it makes [00:15:00] more sense. Ashley: Although also, whoo, I got to say some of that brought me back to my AA days. A lot of fellowshipping and AA, a lot of great Katherine: testimonial, you know, maybe in different words you know, but.Mm. I have a suspicion that AA is a culti, is culti. Do you think AA is culti? Ashley: I have a suspicion that I'm really irritated that culti shows don't want to talk to me more about my experience in AA because it was culti as fuck and people are like, Yeah. I don't want to put 12 step programs down. It's like, well, listen, if you knew what I was going to say, it would be that AA saved my life probably.And I needed that Katherine: accountability when Ashley: I started. And then it became a little culty and maladaptive, so I'm not totally talking shit. Not everything that's culty is inherently bad, but Katherine: well, that's kind of church [00:16:00] Ashley: is pretty fucking culty motherfucker. Like I did wreck the words. The shit that I did recognize was either from.AA or the Bachelor because they said a lot of like, what's on your heart in a season of the Bachelorette that I watched Katherine: Are we ready? Ashley: Are we ready? Ashley? I'm so ready. All Katherine: right. I feel like we should have had a game Ashley: sound. I'm excited as F Katherine: all right. Take it away.Fallon: All right. All right. If somebody said to you guard her heart, what does that Ashley: mean? Be like be a man and make sure that you protect her. That's pretty close. Nailed it. Woo! One for one, Ashley. There's Fallon: also, there's also a secret meaning which is in the dating, like, in the dating concept. I actually got this one from my husband.It's like, guard her heart. Basically, don't have sex with her. Like, Katherine: don't, don't stir up her emotions. [00:17:00] Yeah. Be a good Christian people. Make her want to have sex with you. Fallon: Yeah. You know, those wily women, they might just want to have sex with everybody. Guard her heart. Katherine: Okay. And then it's also used in a broader context of just like guard your heart against, you know, temptation, guard your heart against sin, guard your heart about, against desires and yeah, it's a very common, common, So, so Ashley: you should be guarding her heart against sin and desire.Yeah. Because you're the man and that's okay. Ew. I hate it. At first. I was like, no, Katherine: that's cool. You're supposed to guard their eyes. So you're supposed to cover your body to guard your, your brother's eyes. Help him guard his eyes so that he wasn't led into temptation. Yeah. Yeah. You visually see Ashley: the patriarchy is so strong already.You guys, I can't Katherine: get better. Ashley: Good job. Good job, Ashley. Yay. I don't, I bet I feel like I [00:18:00] didn't get the second meaning, which was so much grosser. It's like, you know, those ladies and the crazy Katherine: feelings. Oh, Fallon: no. Well, we'll award points like the way they do on whose line. So we'll, you know, instead of a thousand for that one, you get 500.All right. Okay. Katherine: Next. Good job. Good job.

What does Ashley: [00:19:00] backsliding mean? Okay. So again, I'm kind of thinking AA. Okay. You've made progress on something, and now you're not, you're not making progress anymore or you're maybe even going back into your bad habits. Katherine: Yeah, I mean, I think it's similar. I think the word backsliding has this idea of like sliding back sliding back your old ways.And so, yeah, but I think it can kind of be used interchangeably with any sort of like, it's like a slippery slope into into. Ashley: Sin, if it's temptation and sin. Yeah. Katherine: And like that was like a slippery slope in the churches that I grew up in, which are very patriarchal and women couldn't be pastors. If you like, let a woman teach on Sunday morning, it was like a slippery slope to like a woman.[00:20:00] Having leadership and so it would be like a point of contention or a slippery slope would be like, you know, letting your child go to, if it was like, you're only supposed to homeschool your kids, but you let your kid go to a co op, that'd be like a slippery slope to putting your child in school or holding hands is like a slippery slope to having Ashley: sex.Oh, yeah. Katherine: Quite any more to say I'm backsliding quite the Fallon: jump. Yeah. I just have to wonder why there's so much sliding, like Christianity is on the mountain covered in Ky and you just, Ashley: any minute you're just ready to like, just slide, slide Katherine: down. Sliding. Well, there's an a lot of like going upward, like climbing the mountain right.The heights. There's all this idea of like heaven being above and you're like climbing and you're moving upward and you're climbing the ladder. There's a lot of that. And so then sliding would be like you're sliding back down Ashley: into the [00:21:00] mire. So if you like stopped praying as much or you started watching secular television.Fallon: Yeah, that's the one. Ashley: Whoa. Because I know what secular means. It means like of the non christian world, right? Right. Fallon: I heard that meaning a lot more what Ash said, which is like somebody came into their belief later in life and they were doing really, really well. And usually they're like on fire for Jesus, right?Like in the beginning. Oh, yeah. And then. When they're backsliding, it means like, Oh, they, they, I saw them hanging out with a friend who's not in church and I saw them go to the regular movie. So I think they might be backsliding into their Ashley: secular life. You guys are fucking tripping me the fuck out right now because that is so AA too.Like backsliding, slippery slope. If you're hanging out with. You know, your old friends who used to [00:22:00] drink and do drugs with that's a slippery slope. If you, if you, if you stop coming to as many meetings, you know, that might mean that you're out. Does AA have a Katherine: foundation of Christianity? Like did Christianity?Ashley: Well, motherfucker, I do know the Lord's prayer by heart. So you tell me, I would say big yes, hold on, hold on, hold, hold the phone, hold the phone. Hold on. Dear God. Give us our daily bread. Hold on. Give us our daily bread. Lead us not into temptation and walk through the valley. Fallon: You've lost some of it.I think over the years I haven't been to Ashley: a fucking AA meeting in a long time, but I used to know that shit. Walk Katherine: through the valley of the shadow of death. Amen. Ashley: I take a look at my life and realize there's nothing left, Katherine: [00:23:00] you know, coolio. Yeah. Yes. Fallon: My guys. I was thinking Amish paradise from Ben's weird.Owl Ashley: lives living in an Amish bear. There you go. Love weird. Owl. Fallon: Well, right now we're definitely backsliding because we're getting secular up in here. Ashley: Okay. No, but you guys, are you hearing how many AA connections Katherine: there are? I wonder, I need to research this now. Did AA start by Christian found with a Christian foundation?And is, is the prayer from AA that give me the courage to accept the Ashley: things I cannot? Yeah. Oh yeah. Okay. Hold on. I know that one. That's the serenity prayer. God. I believe it starts with God. No. Yeah. God grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, the courage to change the things I can, and the wisdom to know the difference.Is that, is that religious? Is that a religious poem? Katherine: That, that is in religion and there will like that will happen, but like, I don't know which came [00:24:00] first. Did it come from AA into Christianity or did Christianity bring that into AA? I don't know. Shit bitch. I don't know. We should figure it out though. We have another podcast episode coming up.Yeah, we do. Hey Fallon. So, Fallon: If I say the term, a baby believer or a baby Christian, what does that mean?Ashley: Like they just got indoctrinated. Yeah. God, you're so good at this. Fallon: Contrary to popular belief, it does not mean a tiny baby who is also a Ashley: Christian. Well, you guys, honestly, I think I've got a little bit of a leg up at this point. If we would have done this episode six months ago, I think that... Right. I probably would have been a lot more lost.I'm not gonna lie. I've learned a lot about Christianity recently. Katherine: We're gonna have to go to the hard ones. Ashley: Yeah, we're gonna have to go to the hard ones. Oh, were you guys starting off with softballs? No, bring it. Katherine: Yeah, okay, tell me what transubstantiation and the trinity Ashley: are.[00:25:00] Okay, good job. Well, you stumped me on A, okay? And the next one was what? Transubstantiation Katherine: and the Trinity. Ashley: Okay, the Trinity is the Father, Mary, and the Holy Ghost. Very close. It's the Katherine: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, yes. The Holy Ghost, Holy Spirit, Holy Ghost. You got it. Ashley: Hey, what's Holy Ghosting? Is that a thing?Or is that a sex thing? What? Is that a sex thing? I heard it was like when you come on somebody's back and then leave. Katherine: Is it that a Superman? Oh Fallon: my God. The fact that both of you know more than one term for weird Katherine: sex acts and she's like, no, it's Fallon: not that weird. It's this other weird superman. Ashley: We're thinking of the, the Dirty Sanchez, which I don't actually know what that is.It's different. Fallon: No, let's talk, Ashley: talk about that. Life is about the rusty trombone, Katherine: you know the trans substantiation? You [00:26:00] don't know what that Ashley: is? No. Okay. The Trinity though. Yeah, that's father, son . Katherine: Do you know that that means that God is three in one? Ashley: He's the father and the. No, no, he's a, he's a buy one, get one free deal.Buy one, get two free. Wow. That's a hot bargain. Hey, question is Jesus God? Yes. Yes. Okay. But I thought Jesus was like God's son. Also, yes. Also, yes.Katherine: My uncle Ashley: was my grandpa and my grandpa was my uncle too. Ding a ling What's going Katherine: on here, dude? Alright, transubstantiation. Both Protestants and Catholics know this one. Transubstantiation means that when you're doing communion, Do you know what communion is? Do you know what communion Ashley: is? Is that when you eat the...The bread and the wine? Okay I'm sorry. Can we all just touch on how [00:27:00] fucking weird that is? Body and blood of Christ. Yep, give it to me. Put it in my mouth. I want to eat that and drink that. Are you kidding me? Nobody's fucking thinking this is weird? Katherine: Yeah, it is weird. And what makes it weird, in my opinion, is transubstantiation and the, the Protestants know this because the Catholics actually believe that the bread and the wine become the body of blood of Christ when you are taking communion, but the Protestants see it as a symbol, not as like actual blood and wine.And the Protestants know transubstantiation because we know that that is what differentiates us from the Catholics. And what makes the Catholics not Christian is because they believe in transubstantiation. Fallon: Oh, yeah. Cause you guys will be like, what's so weird guys is they believe that like, that's actually Jesus's like leg or body. [00:28:00] And like I said to Catherine, what's weird is that they believe that God actually talked to them while they were like taking a dump this morning and told them what to do that day.Ashley: Like go eat me. Fallon: Yeah. Okay. Yeah, no, no. Just like go to your church and say, God told me this morning that I should ask you guys each for five more dollars. Everyone goes, Oh, he must've actually told him like, that's weird. But the believing that that's Jesus's body is not weird. Whatever. Ashley: You guys. Catholics are metalas fuck, dude. It's wild. I'm sorry, but I have been reading some of the Bible and I'm pretty sure that he said cannibalism isn't cool. There you go. There you go. You guys, you know, the Bible, he doesn't God say, doesn't God say not to eat people? Yes. He says yes. He totally [00:29:00] does. I remember it. And they're just up, up there eating him every Sunday.Catholics. I don't, I don't understand. Catholics Fallon: believe that like basically set up their mass. So their weekly service is a mass. If anybody, I'm sure people listening to the show do know, but they, the mass is really every Sunday. Each week. A reenactment of part of the Last Supper, what they believe happened at the Last Supper of Jesus, which you'll get to in the second part of the Bible, and so they say, Jesus took the bread.He gave you thanks and praise. I know the whole mass broke it and said, eat this. It is my body. You know, so he, they believe he said it and that's why they say it. And then they believe that when you wave your hands over the cauldron, it becomes the thing. Not there's no cauldron, but Katherine: usually put clips of, of conversations, but I want to do that clip because Ashley's face.[00:30:00] Ashley: What are you talking about? Oh, you guys. And that's Catherine. That's why it's witches are evil. Yeah. I was going to say also that it sounds like witchcraft. So like what? Yeah. Fallon: Oh God, now I got to find a good one. Hold Ashley: on. I know that. And that was, that Katherine: was considered two. So we're at, I think five now.So we Ashley: have five more. So when you were, when you asked Callen, sorry, when you asked Fallon earlier, Shut up. Shut up. Shut up. Shut up. So when you asked Fallon earlier, Oh, so as a Catholic, you don't consider yourself a Christian. I thought that was a very interesting question for you to ask because I thought that the big difference was.Christians, there's a whole bunch of denominations like Protestant and whatnot. And Catholics just like rocked out on their [00:31:00] own. And they were like, listen, you guys can, or I think the Christians were like, this is too metal. We're going to do our own thing. Right. So it's kind of like Catholics versus Christians a little bit.No. Katherine: Well, I always heard it like Catholic versus Protestant and there would be people who would be like Catholics are not Christians. And then the Catholics that I knew got offended by that. And we're like, no, we're Christians. And like, you don't get to decide if we're a Christian or not. And worshiping Mary and transubstantiation were the main arguments about why Catholics weren't real Christians.And so I grew up with Catholic relatives and, and it was always like, are they a Christian or are they not? And Fallon: I would say largely like my thing was just, I never thought about my faith, like with that kind of question when I was younger, like church is just something you do. And Catholic church is not like.You know, an evangelical service where like you, you might be crying and you're raising your hands and you're [00:32:00] singing moving songs, closing your eyes and you're like, somebody is preaching from their heart half the time, like Catholic has a very specific service. They have a book that gets published and it's basically like on this day you plug in this reading and it's the same every year and the church is always the same.The priest gets like a little chunk of time in the middle to say whatever he wants, but that's it. There's no, there's no ad libbing throughout, and so it's not anything you can really attach your heart to, right? Not, not really. And this is, this Ashley: is like three hours every Sunday? One hour. That's still too much.One hour. That sounds boring as hell. I mean, honestly, I'd rather go listen to Omega Pastor fucking while out about I, I saw the best one the other day. He's like, We don't make it rain on booty cheeks. That was the first fucking thing he said. He said a whole other list of sinful things that they don't do.That's hilarious. I just, but I do [00:33:00] remember that. And I was like, Amen. You know? Fallon: Right. Ashley, I'm going to, I'm going to put a hedge of protection on you. What am I going to do?Ashley: Well, I feel like it's something to do with protection. Katherine: Another way would be saying the same would be like, I'm going to pray a hedge of protection over you. Ashley: Is it like a a forest field, but it's a bush because God appeared as a board, a burning bush. I love Katherine: it. I love that. That's really complex. It's very simple.Ashley: Yeah. Basically. Is it not what I said? No, No, Fallon: it's about protection and it's not really a force field. It's just, you're praying for protection, usually from like Satan, like something's happening in your life and the way I've heard it, Satan's about to get in, like Satan's attacking you from all sides. So I'm, I'm like the way I would surround my house with like a big hedge to keep, keep people [00:34:00] out.And from looking in my windows, like I'm, I'm praying for like something to protect you from bad forces. Ashley: Why does it have to be a hedge, though? Yeah, I don't Fallon: understand the hedge either. I feel like, I feel like, if Satan is really this crazy, powerful being that can influence everything else, he could probably just whip out his chainsaw, right?Like, get through some leaves. And just, like, right through that hedge, so. Katherine: You were talking about that before we started. Yeah. About how hedges actually know that. Not that sturdy, but yes, I think a force field is kind of like a spiritual field Ashley: like you are. Yeah, that's, that's kind of witchy though, you know.Yeah. Oh, oh, for sure. They would stone me to death or something for that. Hey, Katherine: I've been asking for y'all to help me find a witch to cast a protection spell. Ashley: Right? And I was like, I'm a baby witch. I'll buy a book. Katherine: And as I was looking at the like online, I was like, this is just prayer. Oh my God. This is just [00:35:00] praying like, Oh no, I Ashley: want to read you some of the, the prayers, the spells.Oh my God. They sound like prayers. Oh my God. I want to read you some. Not of this one. Spell or prayer. We'll do it after. On Katherine: that note. If someone were to say I have a check in my spirit, what, what, what do they mean? Ashley: That they feel like they have accountability within them. Like somebody's checking their spirit, but it's, it's, it's like God within their heart or Jesus. Or whatever. You guys, I'm killing this Christianity game. Yeah. I think I'm so proud of myself. I think Fallon: I said on a previous episode that you might be a better Christian than any of us at this point.And it's highly possible that knowledge alone, that might be absolutely Ashley: true. I'm well, because I didn't grow up with it. You guys, I'm fascinated. I'm like, that's Katherine: probably like, you're probably retaining it a lot more because it's [00:36:00] fascinating. Whereas we grew up with it and it was just like everyday jargon.Yeah. And like, we've never had to like explain it to somebody before, but you're learning it in a way. In which you can like explain it to somebody and check in spirit. My grandmother used to say that all the time, just like check your spirit or mind the checks, mind the checks in your spirit, which was like, basically the, yeah, like the Holy Spirit was like speaking to you to tell you something was like dangerous or, you know, stay away from it, or basically intuition, but the Jesus, Jesus version, Ashley: I'm thinking about how scary it is as somebody with a fucking.Jesus Christ. Am I right? And how many people in coercive controlling religious groups are being told constantly that they're going to hell and then if they have PTSD or any kind of mental mental illness. People, they're [00:37:00] just told to pray it away. I'm imagining having the mental health issues that I do and being in a situation where everybody around me was like, that's not real, or that's the devil getting you.Like, holy fucking fuck. That sounds so scary. I'm just imagining if I, like my brain's crazy. And I think if the, if his enough people were telling me that my panic disorder and shit is the devil fucking believe that and they'll be scared the fuck Katherine: out of me, dude. Oh, absolutely.

Fallon: So Ashley, I'm going to ask you, what are your, what are your unspokens?If I say that, if I say unspoken, what are, what am I talking Katherine: about? Yeah. Ashley: Unspoken Fallon: or I pray for your unspokens. . Ashley: Oh, thank you. Context. It's like the shit you don't say that you did because it's, it's a, sins be, Fallon: could be. Usually they're talking about unspoken prayer requests. Ashley: Like Katherine: the things that you don't know that you need prayer Fallon: for.Yeah. Yeah. Like either I'm thinking about it and I don't want you to know that I'm praying for it or all of like, if I'm like, I pray for all of Catherine's unspokens, it means that I'm praying for all of the stuff she actually needs that she doesn't know she needs. And maybe. Oh, but you know, your pastor may know that you need more than, than you do.Right. Like pray for all that shit too. So Katherine: I was 29 years [00:39:00] old, a missionary woman prayed over me and, and she prophesied that I would get married and I would have this, like, we would be like this power couple. And this was like, Almost 10 years ago. Ashley: Where's your Christian power husband? Where is my Christian power spouse?Where Fallon: is your Christian power husband? That sounds like an action figure that we need to develop. Katherine: But I just remember it being like, they're going to be a power couple lord. A power couple lord. He has a Fallon: starched white shirt with two buttons. Ashley: Okay, bitch. Listen, I'm about to throw some terminology down. Is that prosperity gospel?Not Fallon: really. Prosperity gospel is more like. Ashley: Is that like being rich means you're close to God? Yes. Katherine: Ish. That's prosperity gospel. Yeah. Like God is blessing Fallon: your life. Or it's okay to have abundant money and not necessarily like help every person with it and keep it for yourself because [00:40:00] God wants you to be rich.That's what the MLMs like to Ashley: use. That's some televangelist type shit, right? Fallon: Yeah. The ones that raise money. Like Ashley: the guy who has all the planes. Who's that guy? He's big on TV. Olsteen? Probably. Like, he's really fucking rich because he preaches on TV and people are super Fallon: into it. I don't know if Joel Osteen, maybe there's a few of them, Joel Osteen's the pastor in Texas, right?And he has like, he has like a giant super mega complex house and like millions and millions of dollars and huge church. Yeah. He's a big prosperity gospel person. Amway likes to tell you to read him. Ashley: He's a, he's a prosperity. No, no, no. Joel Osteen is a televangelist. So yeah, I think he is the one who's.Yeah. With the Katherine: plane. So razy rich. Oh, and Ashley: like. the planes? I think so. What Katherine: does it mean to be in the world, Ashley: but not of it? Okay. So I feel like that means that you have to go to [00:41:00] work, right? And you have to, you have to do stuff that's in the world. But don't let the secular people drag you into their sin because you should be.More in like the godly world and so it's saying be in the secular world because like you have to also you have to tell people that Jesus is what's up and you know, you got to go out there and like proselytize and let people know that like Catherine I learned this from you that if you're doing good work in the workplace, you're doing it for Jesus Christ.Did I, did I nail it? Oh, you Katherine: totally nailed it. 100%, 100 points. 100 of the points. 100 percent of the points. I feel like Ashley: an amazing Christian right now. Fallon: You are. You would have giant. Katherine: You are halfway up the mountain to Ashley: the kingdom. You guys, I'm on fucking fire for Christ right now. [00:42:00] Fallon: I need that on a t shirt.I'm on Katherine: fire, Ashley. You're a burning. Oh yeah. Ashley: Oh, I mean, ignite me baby. Cause I can't, I can't get hotter for Jesus. All right. Yeah. Fallon: Yeah. Anyhow, I think, I think you, cause the last one, the last one, I've had so much fun. Oh my gosh. But you're too good at this. It would be so much better if you were like baby believers are tiny babies that somehow believe like that would have been funny.Yeah. Ashley: You guys, you guys didn't know that I was going to fucking bring that, that passion of the Christ heat. You're like a super agent. Fallon: You are. You're a sleeper agent for Christ. Ashley: Okay, that's a t shirt. Katherine: That's a t shirt.All right. Fallon: So, I'm gonna end with this one. I'm pretty sure you'll get it. But, if I say, God put it on my heart. [00:43:00] Ashley: Okay, this is one of the things that I told you I learned from The Bachelor. So, when God puts something on your heart, it means you, like, really need to speak to somebody about something, because if God puts that on your heart, like, fuck, that means you got to do it.Right? Yeah. That's good. And like people on the bachelor. No one can argue with you about it. No. Yeah. Cause people on the bachelor would weirdly have God put it on their heart that they had to go see the bachelorette like after the rose ceremony. Like God put it on my heart and I needed to come here and yeah, God put it on my heart to come get to know you better.Yeah, Fallon: exactly. Somebody justifies their actions by implying that God told them to do a certain thing a certain way or say a certain thing. And like Catherine said, that's the big piece. You can't argue with me because it's from God. Right. Right. God tacked this post it note to my chest that said, you know, I need to, to tell you you're a [00:44:00] jerk or whatever.And like, I Ashley: must be, because that's funny because God put it on my heart to Fuckin talk about all of these fucks and expose them for the fuckin dick tits they are. Allegedly. Allegedly. Allegedly, right? Heavy on the allegedly's. That's what, Katherine: It gets really funky in the dating community. When I'm going to be like, the Lord told me that we were going to get married and they would like tell the person that, or it was like a common, like commonly used excuse for women.If they didn't want to date somebody, if someone asked them out, it should be like the Lord, the Lord wants me to be single right now. Like God Ashley: doesn't want, I like that. I would use that even as a secular woman. I'd be like weirdly, I just got in touch with Christ. He put it on my heart to Not date you.Yeah I, I gotta I just have to trust the Lord on this Katherine: one. Yeah, no. Yeah, but then strangely, six months later, suddenly God was okay with them being in a relationship. Ashley: [00:45:00] Yeah. I like that. I kind of like that though. Fallon: I Ashley: know. Well, Catherine, that's why I wanted you to look into Twin Flames universe. Because I think that's exactly the, the idea.That they're running on because I was watching this documentary on Amazon Prime, you guys, it's really great. And I was like, why are they fucking bringing Christianity into this? This is about finding like your soulmate, which actually seems more like some woowoo shit, blah, blah, blah. And it's because they encourage you to stalk your love interest, because if God's put it On your heart to love them.That means you're supposed to be together and you should pursue them until they realize that that's the correct thing. Katherine: I know a lot of relationships that turned out that way. Like the, the guy just stalked her for years or the, or the woman did the same thing, like just like hung out for years and years.Like, [00:46:00] I believe, I believe the Lord has us together. My Fallon: spiritual gift is stalking.Ashley: Mine is patience or whatever. Women always get your mercy. Oh, yeah. Fallon: You're a mercy giver. Patience is definitely not my spiritual gift. Katherine: All of my spiritual gifts were gifts that women weren't supposed to have like leadership. And Ashley: why did you get hooked up with those? Katherine: Yeah, man. Talk to God about that one.Ashley: You're like, bitch. He put it on their hearts. I don't know. Katherine: He gave me these gifts and then he gave me boobs. What up? Ashley: What? Everyone was confused. Okay, Katherine: so Ashley, how did you feel about this game? I feel like you got at least an A. I feel like I Ashley: think I know Christianity better than I thought I did. You Katherine: definitely.I Ashley: might know more than some Christians at Fallon: this point. I think it's [00:47:00] amazing that, you know, you don't even know, like, it's not even that, you know, like Christianity, you know, like Christian slang, Katherine: that's you're in the world. You are in the Ashley: world, but I'm not of it. You guys. Okay. Let's get it straight. No secular music or entertainment up in this house.I only produce the content. Do not listen. Don't listen to it. Good for you. There you go. Yeah. Yeah. You're so holy. You're holy. Holy, holy. I'm holy ghosted Later. So you're holy. Ghosted. . Yeah, . So, Ashley, I don't wanna know, Katherine: I'm curious, like, what is your feeling about these phrases? Like, did they come across as like, just like super weird and like, this is like this?Or is it like, oh, this is normal. This is just Ashley: culture? Well, like I said, part of it felt super familiar because of aa. Which I'm like, yeah, Katherine: I think that shit's, like, Ashley: pretty Christian, though. I did say the [00:48:00] Lord's Prayer quite a few times. And... I just also remember a conversation that I had with my mom where she was like, that sounds pretty Christian.And I was like, no, you don't get it. It's a spiritual organization and like how people in Colts always really argue with people that they're not. We're not, we're not a cold. We're not though. You know, it's like we just have these meetings and you know, the fellowship tonight was like tight as fuck.You don't know what you're talking about. Yeah. So what I think I do notice, Not so much that it's weird, but that it's culty because one of the big hallmarks of cults is having your own fucking lingo that outsiders don't understand. Fallon: Great way to keep people who you don't want out out and a great way to keep people who you've got in because everyone likes to feel like they know the group speak, right?Oh my Ashley: god, you know, it'd be so fun if I asked you guys if you knew what these AA sayings [00:49:00] meant. Like first things first. Yeah. Anybody? Is that Katherine: from AA? It is. Ashley: Yeah, it is. Take a stab. Katherine: Just focus on what you have in front of you and don't worry about the rest. Ashley: Yeah. You nailed it. Yeah, basically like so if you, so a lot of people will like get sober and then also become a vegetarian who goes to the gym six times a week and doesn't smoke anymore.So that is, Oh yes, they just replace the addiction with something else. Absolutely. Absolutely. But you know first things first means, so like if it can mean. Just don't get overwhelmed with everything and just take care of what's most important first. And it can also mean, like, if you're trying to quit alcohol, wait until you feel comfortable with that before you try to quit cigarettes or whatever.Because, super easy to backslide, very slippery slope. [00:50:00] Fallon: But you know what? I've heard that when I started, like, when I got came, like, started to go back into like deep Christianity when I was in the Navy, shut up. I heard that from somebody who was like, well, I heard including a God put it on my heart. But he was like, when I first became a Christian, I had it put on my heart that I should only focus on one thing at a time. So like my, he was like, so I would encourage you to only focus on following God for one year and no dating and no thinking about romance for one year, because otherwise you can't be sure that you're doing like that thing correctly.So yeah, that. That shows up. Like, if you're a new Christian, focus on being a Christian, don't focus on trying to date and, you know, do this, Ashley: stop it, stop it, stop it, stop it. That is what they say in AA too. They say for your first year, don't date. Don't. All right. I'm going to, I'm going to Katherine: Google it. Does AA.Oh Ashley: my God. I'm freaking out. You guys, I was. [00:51:00] So much more Katherine: in a cult than I thought Fallon: what? No, you were just a Christian for Katherine: a while. I love that Christianity informed your view of AA being a cult. I'm like, oh my god. Oh my god. The similarities Fallon: are meeting through AA's immediate precursor The Christian Revivalist Oxford Group, they and other alcoholics fellowship there until forming what became Ashley: AA.Okay, that's the thing. They realized that the altruistic Christian model, they are. That's what it says somewhere. Katherine: An altruistic Christian movement is what it says. Ashley: Shut the fuck up. Shut the Katherine: fuck up. Where? The end 1935 when Ashley: it was founded. Okay, so, okay, now I'm starting to remember Bill Wilson the big book.Bill Wilson of, also the big book the Bible of AA. Bill Wilson, our charismatic leader who gets celebrated on his birthday. Katherine: Like, Ashley: like. There's often [00:52:00] a picture of him in the rooms. Oh my Katherine: gosh, this is such a Ashley: cold. Freaking out. I, that is why I'm a good Christian. I fucking was a good Fallon: Christian for quite a while.Catherine. I almost feel like I need to be like, you need a whole a episode and we should stop this Ashley: here. Yeah. No, we Katherine: got to stop now. Cause this is crazy. Christian and the ASF. But I definitely think you should do an AA episode for that's a fucked up. You should definitely do that. I think it sounds it. It sounds like everyone I know who's been through AA when they would like tell the stories, I would be like, that sounds like so shaming.And so like behavior oriented and it sounds so like restrictive. And so I'm just like scarcity mindset and just like, it doesn't sound like human to some extent. Ashley: No, I'm like, I'm like tripping out. I'm making like so many [00:53:00] wild connections right now. Oh my God. And especially Katherine: because typically what leads to addiction is trauma and it didn't sound like there was any depth into addressing the Ashley: trauma.Well, this is fun. And you, when you do your steps, one of the steps is to. Admit all of the ways that you've wronged everybody in your life. And I said, what about my mother who abused me? And they said, well, you have to find your part in that, which is that as a 30 something year old woman, you're still holding on to that resentment.Whoa, Katherine: that's straight out of Christianity. Straight. Ashley: Also every night you're supposed to write an inventory, which is like all the ways that you had fucked up that day. That's like shame based. Yeah, if, if you get out, if you're out of the program, when you come back in, you have to take a newcomer chip and be like, yeah, after 10 years of sobriety, I drank for one day and now I'm a newcomer and that [00:54:00] whole 10 years is gone and everybody's like, everybody's like, yay.And you're like, okay, cool. Like I'm getting love bombed by the group. I'm glad to be here. This is the only way to stay sober because in AA, there's only one truth is the only way to stay sober. Katherine: So AA becomes the new Fallon: addiction. Hey, Oh my gosh. Yeah. We got to talk about this. Wow. Okay. Katherine: This is a whole new episode, but yeah.So in conclusion, Ashley, any final thoughts, Fallon, any Fallon: final thoughts? No, this was really fun. We're glad to get back together. Well, I was, I think I speak for both of us. So glad to get back together with you. And it was really fun to see Ashley unravel all my expectations that she wouldn't know Christian Ashley: lingo.So, and to see Ashley. Fully realized that she was in a Christian cult for multiple. I mean, that doesn't make me Fallon: happy, but yes, it was Ashley: but Katherine: it solves the mystery for me as I'm like hearing people's stories. I'm like, that sounds cool. Ashley: [00:55:00] Yeah, but Katherine: I can't say that because so many people like worship AA and found it so helpful.Ashley: . I think I'm finding that I want to say what the fuck I want to say and say, I said what I said, but I will be honest as well and say.I think at times it was really fucking helpful. I think at times I needed that. I think some people, legit, that is the only fucking way for them to stay sober, is with that level of accountability, and trying to like, get out of their narcissism by finding that there is something bigger than them and they're not the center of the universe.So I do say it with the, I mean, Like I always say, cults are on a spectrum. They're not always super harmful and coercive. But, is that shit culty as fuck? Yeah. And, like I said, it was really helpful for a while. And then it became maladaptive, which is when I felt shamed. Because I smoked weed. [00:56:00] Because I got sunstroke and was like violently throwing up and I understand the medicinal properties of marijuana and then they were like, yeah, you went out and I was like, no, I didn't.And I actually left because I wasn't going to let this fucking group of people tell me that I had that my sobriety was fucked. I was like, no. Actually, it's not. So, fuck you guys. I'm out. And now I've been sober for, if we're not going by AA time, about nine fucking years. I've had a couple drinks in between.I think I went like one year, actually, probably drinking. That does not negate the other fucking eight. Yeah. Where I did not pick up a drink. So, you know, it's, I heard something really interesting. And I think that you were in a cold. depending on whether or not you Think or decide you were in a cult. I thought that was very interesting.Like it's not really up to other people to tell you that you were in a cult because maybe you were and you had a great time. Like maybe that one fucking [00:57:00] Scientology or NXIVM class that you took at the very low level and you never went into the organization. Maybe that class helped you, you know, so.Katherine: Exactly. And, and, and I think that that is the opposite of fundamentalism when you can kind of hold those things together and just be like, it was helpful. But the organization itself is harmful Ashley: and yeah, because life's not black and white, right? Like there's a lot more Katherine: gray. I can say the foundation of evangelicalism, I believe is problematic, but I'm not going to, but I can also say people I know go to church and have a good experience and they genuinely have a good experience and it helps them be a better person.So right. Both of those things can be true at Ashley: the same time. Absolutely. Yeah. Well, I think that's a great place to end. Me too. Thanks everyone for being here. Yeah, you guys, and If you guys have not checked out Catherine's episode on our feed, please do follow us on That's So Fucked Up. We're on all the platforms where you listen to podcasts.

The teaching of Paul. Dr. Ferguson asked, “What sustained Paul under these pressures?” Then he answered his own questions with doctrines. Can you help us understand how each doctrine helped sustain Paul? Dr. Ferguson said Paul had a vital knowledge of the character of God, the work of Christ, the nature of God's ways, and the indwelling power of the Holy Spirit. How can preachers like Olsteen reconciled this verses with their teaching? Read from page 4, J.B. Phillips' rendering of Romans 12:1-2 “Christians, use your minds! Give your bodies to the Lord ‘as an act of intelligent worship'. Let ‘God re-mould your minds from within'”. “As we understand and appreciate the mercies of God we will live more fully for Christ. But what are the mercies of God? How can we understand them? The answer is that God's mercies have been expounded in Romans Chapters 1-11” As our eyes are opened to God's resources of grace, practical Christian living will become more meaningful to us. Romans 6:17- “But God be thanked, that ye were the servants of sin, but ye have obeyed from the heart that form of doctrine which was delivered you.” (KJV) ‘form of doctrine” form means Mould. -Reshaped by His grace and moulded by His doctrine into the likeness of Christ. - The letter to the Romans gives us the broad outline of this mould. Read 2 Timothy 3:14-17 from page 6. Our doctrine should be practical. Dr. Ferguson talks about the following chapter of his book. That it is not a manual of systematic theology, but will concentrate on doctrines which surround Christian life. “Many Christians have less knowledge of Christian doctrine than children at Sunday school had in previous centuries”. Read story from Benjamin Warfield, pp 7-8. “The understanding of Christian doctrine shapes our Christian lives.” “The show us the God we worship, and illuminate our understanding of His Son's love and His Spirit's work. They form the foundation of the Christian life”. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/biblebulldog/message

Paul Casey: We're making left onto a two-way highway is like approaching a change situation. So I've got a vision. Consider the timing, possess the means and the team to make the change and look both ways before accelerating, Speaker 2: Raising the water level of leadership in the Tri-Cities of Eastern Washington. It's the Tri-Cities influencer podcast. Welcome to the TCI podcast. We're local leadership and self-leadership expert Paul Casey interviews, local CEOs, entrepreneurs, and non-profit executives to hear how they lead themselves and their teams. So we can all benefit from their wisdom and experience. Here's your host, Paul Casey of growing forward services, coating and equipping individuals and teams to spark breakthrough success. Paul Casey: It's a great day to grow forward. Thanks for joining me for today's episode with Edison. Valerio Edison is a state farm agent here in the Tri-Cities specifically Pascoe. And I asked him for something quirky about himself and actually I sort of knew what he was going to say because we golf together and he likes to use the phrase nice and easy whenever I try to hit the ball too hard, but Edison, tell us a little bit about that phrase and I think it probably goes beyond just go, huh? Edison Valerio: Totally. Paul. Hey, thank you so much, Mr. Casey, for giving me the opportunity to be on your podcast. And this is Edison with state farm, like a good neighbor and a nice and easy as something that is really simple, but that's how I try to live my life. Nice and easy and the same way that we apply that at the golf course when we try and we were trying to push something and we have something in mind and it would try to push it too hard sometime it doesn't go our way, right? When we try to hit the ball, but there's nice and easy Paul is something that is really simple, but at the same time is taking life nice and easy and be nice to yourself when other people that's, that's also have a positive impact. So I applied to my personal and in the golf course. Paul Casey: Okay, nice. Well, I'll tell it to my golf game. So there you go. Well, we'll dive in after checking in with our Tri-City Influencer sponsor, take back your weekends and let Senske services be your green team.

Paul Casey: Thank you for your support of leadership development in the Tri-Cities. Well welcome Edison. I was privileged to meet you when I was about three or four years ago, I think I was recruiting for a mid-Columbia Score, which helps entrepreneurs launch small businesses here in the Tri Cities. And you you're a key volunteer on that team and thank you again for that. And, and then it was on the golf course as well, where we've had a good, good time. And I think you're usually playing, UB40 on the golf course cart, which has always encouraging. Edison Valerio: Yes, yes. And then it goes back to a nice that easily. You had to always include a bit of music. You know, some of us, they do meditation before they go into the golf courses because as we know that the game is a mental game as well. So they let a bit of you before, you know, really, you know, relax relaxes. Yeah. Paul Casey: Yes. I love it. Well, so are a tracing. Any influencers can get to know you tell us about your work there at state farm and what do you spend 80% of your day doing these days? Edison Valerio: Yeah, I know that's the, you know, I've been really, really blessed to have this opportunity to be my own, my own business owner, to have my own business at the beginning of these this year, which is we're still through the pandemic and I stay, I stay farm independent business owner. We have an office and I have three team members. Two of them are licensed. Someone is going through the process. And so, you know, my background to Paul, I, I used to manage banks for 15 years. I've been in this community for 20 trying to create a positive impact with the people that we touch with while we have so that we can make a difference. And in this world in general, but I spent the, so that's my, you know, my main key for my office, my base is, is to make sure that we have a qualified individuals, talented individuals, but also we, that, that they well-trained so that when our customers call, they can have the best, worst service possible because we are about, we might again, risks of everyday lives so that people can recover from the unexpected when something happened to them, they can recover so that they have dreams so they can, they can realize their dreams. Edison Valerio: And so I spent a lot of time coaching a lot of time, making sure that the basis is born in with our, my expectation, but it was also reaching out, doing some marketing, being in my community, volunteering my time and such as going to mainly now here in Detroit, in the passcode, excuse me, on the schools of volunteer my time about to Pasco high now on spending time on new horizons, which is they have kids, challenging kids, oh, with early pregnancy and things of that nature. So we go there as a big partner and, and talk to them, but mainly, you know, focusing on the financing part of it, because that's what that's my expertise is. So that's where to spend the majority of my time. Paul Casey: Gotcha. Why do you love what you do? Cause you, you made a shift from the banking industry to the insurance industry. So I'm assuming there was a pole there for you. Why do you love what you do? Edison Valerio: Yeah. And you know, every single day when we wake up and we look about what do we have, that we can make a difference. So in the financial industry with the knowledge that I had was about, you know, helping people with a checking the same amount with Mons and, and talk them within how to have a better, better score, better five quiz scores. But here with insurance is, and we are in financial services and insurance as well, but they insurance portion of this is about managing risk. How do we manage the rest of everyday lives? So that, because it wouldn't on minus the Rez and something happened, we can lose it all in one second. So it's so fascinating to come to work and talking with people and asking those, those proper questions so that we can discover what they need so that we can protect assets, but also we can protect them and we can protect their family by making sure that they have the right products so that if they have an accident, once again, they have the right coverages because if not, then they open themselves to any lawsuits or medical beers or they don't able to pay. Edison Valerio: And it's really like, just like last week, Paul, I had a customer that is Spanish-speaking. And the first thing, I mean, she had a little bit of leak of water and her and her house, but she just came here because she works all day, may Lee and they, an amount of foster company, she works all night and that you sleep all day, but she took the time and she didn't, she didn't call the plumber or anyone. She just came here for, you know, for us to help her. So when are in faces of devastation and desperation, they thinking about us, right? So how, what an opportunity we have to help those individuals and to have anyone to think of us in that time, when they have a station desperation so that we can help them so that they, they, they can continue to live in the regular life because everything can change more secretarial. So that's the, that's the beauty of what I do, what I do call and every single ledgers come into work. And, and it just, my vocation is my vacation. You're saying joy. I can be here for, you know, eight hours, 10 hours, 11 hours on any calls that I gave for any course summers at any given time. And we have our 24 course, 25 hours of course, summer services that they can also assess if, if I, you know, if I can, but fascinating to be in that position. Paul Casey: Yes. Yeah. It sounds like you've nailed your why now you do what you do. I love that. Tell us a little bit about, you want to hire a, you want a team around you. That's highly qualified people. Who else do you reach out to as an entrepreneur to help you be successful? Who do you surround yourself with? Edison Valerio: Yeah, that's a really good question because we, you know, we never stop learning. We have to continue to learn and we have to be in attentions as to what, what, what's the systems that we need and want it to continue growing because we're not whole, we're not a hundred percent. We always need a percentage. Our buckets are needed according to the projects. Right. So, you know, perhaps, you know, I reach out to you, you really gave you really influence influential and team leadership and team spirits. And just as a personal growth, you have a great book. And I read a lot of look from John, John Maxwell and, and motivational books. And also in the mornings, I, you know, I have my three things that I do in the morning, which is one of the thing is my spiritual, which is [inaudible] listen to your stints. And then Alyssa to my motivational is going to more diversity. And then, then I do my exercise, but you know, reaching out, you know, me once again as asked me, reaching out to what's playing me hall and then in a community, having that have a, your center of influence by, you know, people from my BNI, people like you and, and other leaders in the community that had been influential. I know you have any questions, you know, you can always call them different business owners, you know, such as you know, I have one Mike Miller from mood security, a fan of mine and yeah. Paul Casey: Yeah. Good, good people. Cause it does take a community. I like how you mentioned BNI at first . If people don't know what BNI is, what is, would you explain that to our listeners? Edison Valerio: Yeah. I know they BNI is, is a business network that is going to expand your personal knowledge, personal professional, but also it's a great marketing source. And what he does say is that anything that you have sort of model people that can refer your business. And in case when the, the customer comes into their businesses and asking for, or inquiring them, their businesses, they can also say, oh yeah, but then we have so-and-so. And so that can help you, perhaps in my case with your insurance not only, you come in to buy a home, but also have someone that can help you. So it's a referral base. You build relationship within your team and trust. And also they say centers of influence that instead of you promoting your business, you have 20 other people perhaps also promoting your business, Paul Casey: Good stuff. We all need that we all need the, the fellow promoters, the refers, especially in entrepreneurism, because there's such a word of mouth advertising that as critical to build your reputation as someone who can help and add value. I love that. Let me go to something you mentioned earlier, you said you've got a great morning routine, three things that you do in the morning. You said you nurture your, your spiritual wellness. You talked about like motivational and exercise, go a little bit deeper. Because I'm sure that is probably a way that you avoid burnout and negativity. Edison Valerio: Oh, absolutely. You know, we, you know, we love what we do and of course, as an employer and you know, we love the, are, you know, alive. So anything else, but we also need to remember Paul, that that is a lot of negativity up there, right? So this is just the world. I mean, our world is even in the morning, you know, I don't, I don't, I don't listen to, I don't start my day listening to news. I haven't watched the news for many years. I read that news. I read it because I choose what I wanted to read. So once again, going back into being intentional, we need that your positive. And just like, can we take our environments in the morning? So you need your environments in the morning or for you to go through that day really strong. So that anything that comes your way, you able to overcome it. Edison Valerio: Yes. So for me, those are the three things that I've found that I keeps me really strong. And as I go through the day, because throughout the day you're going to have, you might have a customer that, that might take it on you, you know, Mohammed courseware, that's how to by date. And so how do you overcome those challenges? How do you help those individuals? Right? If you not, if you're not suited mentally, physically, and you know, it's, it's, it can definitely overwhelm you and they ended up fourth and you don't love what you do a thing for those, that nature, but going deep into those three rituals and you know, you don't have to do her every day, but the same way that perhaps one of us, you know, you do Joe gum, meditation, whatever it is, you do need to spend time for yourself. Edison Valerio: Yeah. And that's the time that I take for myself early in the morning, so that, you know, before the family, anybody works up, you already too, like you are, you're ready to go for the day and you're ready to take on that day. So it's not, I mentioned it to you, Paul, you know, just take just an hour within that hour. You know, you break it down, you break it up to different sections, but in the same time that I'm working out and that's what I'm listening to, my spiritual breakfast, and it's really simple. It's like, I go to YouTube and so many different, you know, your stands or any other spiritual preachers up there, they just, you know, sexual it's up 20 minutes, a 25, no more than that. And then the more, more diversity, more diversity, it's the same where you have 20, 25 and then goes in so deep into, you know, new, our purpose in life, but not giving up, becoming a varsity. Edison Valerio: And we'll you down? How do you, how do you lift yourself up? And those other things, all that, you know, people, you know, they see does. And perhaps they see me that, you know, this happy guy that happy Caribbean guy that goes around smiling all the time within a, with an island vibe. But as it is, you know, it's not easy. You have to, it's not just this mile that you, you know, trying to reflect, but it is, you know, how you chooses to have out a smile by the things that you intentionally consume mentally. Cause we had to be mentors, mentors, strength, and we have to mental mentally strong. And so that's, that's how I lead my life. I mean, that's how I lead in the morning. Now, Paul Casey: Once you intentionally consume and otherwise he just got the default consume, which is often a lot negative stuff, a lot of drama that you could allow it to cling to you. And instead you got to pull that stuff off and choose what you consume to set yourself up for a good day. Love that good stuff. Well, Hey, let's take a quick break. Before I asked Edison how he plans his day, how does he get things done? Let's reach out to our sponsors. Are you dreaming of a lush weed free lawn? Have you heard what your neighbors are saying about their Sinsky lawn, a lush weed-free lawn in, within your reach? Don't just take it from us. Listen to what people in our community are saying about Sinsky services. Lavando Elle of Kennewick said I've been a customer for several years and I can depend on Sinsky to take good care of my lawn. Paul Casey: I always get a call before each treatment and a detailed report. After Mildred w of Kennewick said, the workers are always willing to satisfy the customers. And that says a lot. Thank you for everything. Key services is a locally owned and operated company that has been in the business of lawn and tree care for nearly 75 years. This means nobody knows green lawns. Like Senske let Senske help you achieve the lawn of your dreams by visiting sinskey.com today, to learn more so Edison, how do you get things done? How do you organize yourself? Every, every entrepreneur has to have a way because you're your own boss and it's very easy to procrastinate when there's no hard deadline. Edison Valerio: No, that's, that's the, that is a really good question. We, because I'm not going to go into details, Paul, because I are, you know, my, the business that I do and even banking, I mean, it has a lot of processes and this latter routine. So even when we, even when you would get up in the morning, you know, you have to have that routine. So everything is starts with our routine. And so just to make a daily to do list, and that starts the night before. Yeah. And even, even so some of us, we like we planners. So we, we plan on Sunday for the week and, and sometimes you can plan for the whole month, but you can, it's tentative, right? Because you use a lot of verbal second, half and political through weekly, you planned for the week and Sunday. That's what I do. Edison Valerio: Take your time. You make sure that your schedules and you knew you review your schedule so that you can have a really quick snapshot, snap view and, and, and your mind as to how that work is going to go. But you, so you made your daily to-do list in the morning or the night before you follow through you do the hottest, you do the hardest task first, and then you clear off your desk, but let's go back into my, into my, to clarify. And then I'm going to go to, I have four more items that I want to emphasize, but like what we do in an insurance world requires everything requires attention because we're dealing with, with people we're dealing with customers risk, we money in the race. So that was something happened that can be, they can be protected. So if somebody calls and said, Hey, a Edison, I just replaced my 2012 Toyota Highlander for a 20, 20 Camaro door. Edison Valerio: Things I cannot, we cannot procrastinate it and do it later because if something happened during that time, of course we can, we can back, you know, we can make it effect at any time by those things has to be done sooner than later, immediately on that date, we cannot leave without getting those tasks done because we have, we have people moving and those moving in generalists' vehicles, anything can happen. Any accident can happen in a given day. So those tasks needs to be done. But in general, though, I'm going to just, you know, we mentioned about, okay, well, get things done through the, during the Workday. And once again, make a daily task, do the hardest tasks. First clear off your desk, sit up a system, set up you process. Because if you don't have a system in place, then you're going to be posed so many different ways, such as if you have a systems that everybody knows in the office that you're going to take an hour. Edison Valerio: The first hour from eight to nine is going to be for you to prioritize your tasks. And they know that, okay, within eight to nine, we're going to take voicemail. We're going to take messages because you know, perhaps Edison is working on his routine for the day and then focus on one thing. First CSI. You know, we, as I assume, I mean, we would like to multitask, but just focus on one thing first at a time, get that things other time done so that you can go into another task. Don't jump around because you don't want to have different open tasks and the day nothing gets done. You want to get one thing first, get it done, moving to the next one. Edison Valerio: And, and the last one is, you know, it's in the office. It's okay to say, no, I know I cannot do this. Always know, you know, I would like for you to search it or guest announcers or figured it out. And it's okay to say no, because you cannot take all the task. It's going to come as a business owners, you need to delegate, right. And you need to your team for them to find those answers and then have them challenge them. Having to find those answer. I share those with you. Like the iron and the burns. Like even, yeah, the first of course I made the first one or two months, you're spending a lot of time coaching with them and you do your coaching sections, but then they, you enable them to search and find those answers. And then they, the one who ended up teaching you and which they not as a whole, the offers gets, instead of one person gets, you know, three or four brain educating each other by having, by having this open concept, right. People share with the IDs numbers practices. Yep. And so that's, those are the things that I organize my day, Paul on Paul Casey: Those are really good. I love the, I, they call it the eat that frog principle of doing that, those difficult tasks first and avoid. It's easy to cross off a lot of little things first, cause they're easy or more fun or just convenient, but we get that big thing done. We get that monkey off our back and we're able to then start a snowball of productivity for the rest of the day. And also, like I said, you know, clear your desk, right? If, if we're all looking at her desk right now, we're just like, oh, you know, it looks like a bomb hit. It, it, it, that clutter just sort of yells at us and it actually hurts our productivity because we get this, this it's, it's a feeling of overwhelm it's in the back of our heads. Probably not right in front of us, but there's something about a clean area with a nice and tidy to-do lists that allows you to set the stage for being productive. So you've got some really great habits there that the time manager and me just smiles. Well, last year you made your, you made a career change and during the COVID year. And so you had to, you had to make a decision to switch careers. Can you tell our listeners who might be on the verge of like, Hmm, I might want to do something different. Maybe it's they have a day job and they want to pursue their dream job. Maybe it's just switching positions, maybe it's going for a promotion. What counsel would you give someone who is really thinking about doing something different than they are now? Edison Valerio: You know, it's we all Paul, we, we are a scare. Well, we get scare of the unknown. Yeah. And so, you know, be being in banking for many years and even so I, I became an approve candidate for state farm 10 years ago, but I was so comfortable with online skein money in banks. At that time, I was finding you bank of America that I didn't want to jump. Right. Because you feel comfortable with the little of income that you receive and to jumping into a commission, a hundred percent commission, right? So you just, you have a fear of the unknown, but what I can tell them, the listeners up there is that [inaudible] what you visualized is going to be while you're going to realize the time that you executed your plan. So your objective, you know, and of course, before you jump into your ticket, take an interest in investigating your, what exactly you're trying to do, you know, have that adapt adaptability or your mindset, you mindset. And you mind sets that stability sometimes come a lot of times going with a gravity too. Right. Edison Valerio: But whenever you feel the, you know, the fear, you know, trying to, to feel grateful instead as, and share with other ones and they feel that where they can keeps you the ins and out, do you research read once again, I mentioned, if we, the session I'm really good on that, Paul, because when you visualize at one point, it's going to be, it's going to come in fruition and put things in perspective who thinks in perspective and you can't, you can be anything that you wanted to be in life. The only limitations are in our minds, in our head. We can't, yes. We're going to have a lot of adversity, but I send times we can, we can become once again, anything because the situation does, doesn't dictate who we are. You know, as I mentioned it to you, Paul, that I am a, I am a kid and man's young from the bronze, the bronze on New York, the city that they, they, the streets of New York, my mother single mother, that she couldn't, she couldn't have me in a tough neighborhood because she was working in a nursing home. Edison Valerio: And so I grew up in the, in the island. We, you know, from the Dominican Republic and I live in Puerto Rico as well. And then, but to me, you know, it was, and I came here to what I wanted college when I was 18. I just, I didn't my first time in Washington state. But you know, it was a private school part of my religion Seventh-day Adventists. And I knew that I was, that's what I wanted to be. I started as electrical engineer, but at some time it was tough because you had to learn so many different things that you don't know, but you had to uncomfortable before you go, you get comfortable. You, you had to then visualize that other anal, the tonal. This is what I, I see myself. So in any businesses up there or anyone that is the ones to take, make that change, don't think that you're going to have a plan B, don't go with a plan B, you have to go with a plan, a, you had to jump and don't think that you're going to come back to what you were doing, because otherwise you're not going to seq at a hundred and twenty oh two twelve. Edison Valerio: We want to G we want it to be a fun and hide high fat and high heat, two 12. So that nothing stopped you. Right? So that's the type of mentality. And, and we had to be mentally strong. That is easy. Absolutely not. That is difficult. Absolutely. That that is possible. Yes. Yes. It's possible. Yes, we can do a, yes. We can meet any things. And some, sometimes, you know, we have, Paul would come to work and a lot of people, they have so much, so much talent and they come to work because they just feel that that, that they are that's, that's as good as they go. They are. And, and they have this, this, this pipeline, amazing goals and plans, but then they would put in, in plays. And then somebody said, I think that was the Jean rom. You rom said Les brown. Yeah. Les brown. He said, he said, motivational speaker. He, that he says that Les says that they, the plays that has the most talented or the most dreams are a and the cemetery because everybody texts it to the tomb because too late, too late. So why not to realize and put your plants in place now where we can, instead of taking a seven feet on the ground, and if you fail, you fail, but at least you try. Paul Casey: That's good stuff. And I love how you said, you realize what you visualize. Right? And so you've got to keep that goal or that dream, or that next career for that next job position firmly ensconced in your mind. And then, like you said, another author says, burn the boats, right? The Cortez principle of, you know, you can't leave yourself the chicken exit. Like, well, if this doesn't work, then I've got my plan B, but no, I've, I've got to pursue this a hundred percent. If it doesn't work out, it's going to be okay. You know, I can always fall back on my old career or something else, but you don't go in with that. I'm going to bail when things get tough, I'm going to put it wholeheartedly. And yeah, you mentioned some good people there, Les brown listeners, anything unless brownie, what you want to listen to that Jim Rowan, R O H N a. He's got fantastic stuff. You've mentioned Joel, Olsteen for encouragement and you some really good stuff to fill your brain with. Hey, so Edison, finally, what advice would you give to new leaders or anyone who wants to keep growing or gaining more influence in their community or in their workplace? Edison Valerio: You know what, one of the thing in order to keep, to keep growing and we need to realize is number one, you know, we're talking about the pursuit of happiness and sometimes, you know, the pursuit of happiness, we as human being, we, we want to, you know, we have these, this facade of happiness, are you doing little things that are not aligned with your purpose. So find you purpose, which is going to find your happiness, and then yet that's going to be contagious. And so with that, whatever you walk, you know, you're going to be walking with your cheek and the shoulder about who you are humble behind, they happiness. That's going to tell you who you are, but also that is going to rebel you purpose in life. And your purpose in life can be different ways. It's not. And I'm talking about just making money, because that is comes. That is the spiritual, that's the result of doing what you love to do. A hand, but the purpose of, you know, perhaps going and talking with others, working with us, non-profit organizations, going to the salvation army or the food bank, whatever it is, find your purpose first and names. That's going to keep you going. And, and by finding your purpose, I know you why then you're going to find your happiness. Paul Casey: Well, that is so good. Yeah. I've listened to another podcast where the speaker says the opposite of depression is let's see, I'm trying to think of, she said, but the opposite of depression is a lack of purpose. It's actually apathy. It's not knowing at your core. And so when you have that purpose, you have, you have that internal drive that motivation and that happiness follows after that. I think I slaughtered the quote, but you, your point is well taken that you've got to have that core purpose in order to lead to joy, which is going to vault you forward in an everyday and get you up every morning. Well, Hey, how can our listeners best connect with you? Edison Valerio: Yes, they can't follow my webpage on Facebook. Edison, Villarreal is state farm, and also on Instagram, as well as some malaria state farm. We're located here in passcode, 34 7 was court street wide next to Sally's. And also on this north, everybody, you know, on this north is, is a restaurant has been, the staff establishment has been here for 70 plus years. And, and of course you can give us a call at (509) 492-4446. And we'd more than happy to talk to you about your insurance needs. But you know, if you need me to go and talk to anyone about sharing my experience to any high schools, which I love to do talking to our youth, you know, please feel more than working to, to do so and give us a call. Yeah. And it was great. Paul, thank you for giving me the opportunity. Paul Casey: Yes. Well thank you for all you do. And the nonprofits you've been associated with the chamber of commerce, and like you said, just your willingness to speak to youth or share your story. You make the Tri-Cities a great place. And so keep leading. Well, my friend, Edison Valerio: Thank you. Thank you. Paul Casey: Let me wrap up our podcast today with a leadership resource to recommend all you have to do for, to get my tool on how to be a terrific team leader is you open a text message to 72,000 that's 7 2 0 0 0, and type the two words team lead, put a space in between that team lead to 72,000. I'll send you a one pager on 11 inspirational actions to do with your team. Well, we'll have to give that as a free gift to you. So you can be a more terrific team leader than you are right now.

We also want to thank our TCI sponsor and invite you to support them. We appreciate you making this possible so that we can collaborate to help inspire leaders in our community. Finally, one more leadership tidbit for the road to help you make a difference in your circle of influence it's by Robin Sharma. And it goes along with what Edison talked about of the getting out of the comfort zone. Robin says, the more time you spend in your discomfort zone, the more your comfort zone actually expands until next time kgs keep growing forward. Speaker 2: Thank you to our listeners for tuning in to today's show. Paul Casey is on a mission to add value to leaders by providing practical tools and strategies that reduce stress in their lives and on their teams so that they can enjoy life and leadership and experience their key desire for salts.

The Gail Foley Show - Gabbin' With Gail Grows Your Business

Here's the quote for our Monday Motivational moment..."Sixty-nine percent of the country believes that a bad day at the beach is better than a good day at work." -- Gallup Poll as shared by Bob Beaudine in "The Power of Who". And I'm thinking this will be our book after I finish with Dr. Dyer's. But back to today's show. I had a little hiccup last night and ended up in the ER room for a few hours. Nothing major and it's fixable, but wow, makes you wake up and appreciate good news even more than you ever thought you would! We sorta go through our daily lives in a casual fashion until something wakes us up! In fact, ironically the podcast I listened to this morning by Joel Olsteen was about being content. Being content where you are and where your life is, while making plans to have a better job, better home, being married instead of single, etc. He's quite humorous as he shares his insights, but it is so true. If we stay in a discontented mood, whatever we would prefer will definitely not show up in our life. Negative only attracts more of the same and generally outright repels what you'd rather have. So if you agree with the quote, maybe it's time to be grateful for what you do have and not what you don't. Listen in to hear more of my thoughts. And as always, I do appreciate you. And because of you, my days are over the top content because every listen, every share, every comment, every review helps me grow my audience. 'Cause I want to help you grow your business and I do that by sharing your success story! And the bigger the audience the better for my guests! Together we make a difference. Thank you.
