Hey, everybody.

17
00:01:29,200 --> 00:01:32,900
Welcome back to another episode of Cryptic Cocktail Party, a show where we have a few drinks,

18
00:01:32,900 --> 00:01:35,300
share a few laughs, take a dive into the unknown.

19
00:01:35,300 --> 00:01:42,100
I am your incredibly hungover host, David Prescott, joined once again by the most handsome boy I know,

20
00:01:42,100 --> 00:01:44,300
Nicholas Eisman. What's going on, buddy?

21
00:01:45,000 --> 00:01:46,100
You look hungover.

22
00:01:46,100 --> 00:01:47,400
I, dude, all right.

23
00:01:47,400 --> 00:01:52,500
It's the past two weeks have been a nonstop roller coaster of just torturing my body.

24
00:01:53,200 --> 00:01:54,300
It's not okay.

25
00:01:55,000 --> 00:01:58,200
Because we went to Vegas last weekend for when we were young.

26
00:01:58,200 --> 00:02:04,200
And the desert is a very hostile environment.

27
00:02:04,200 --> 00:02:05,900
And I hated being there every second of it.

28
00:02:05,900 --> 00:02:06,900
It was so fucking hot.

29
00:02:06,900 --> 00:02:07,900
I love Vegas.

30
00:02:07,900 --> 00:02:09,700
Oh, dude, fuck Vegas.

31
00:02:09,700 --> 00:02:11,400
Everything's way too expensive.

32
00:02:11,400 --> 00:02:13,300
It's just hot all the time.

33
00:02:13,300 --> 00:02:14,400
And it's a dry heat.

34
00:02:14,400 --> 00:02:15,800
Go fuck yourselves with that bullshit.

35
00:02:15,800 --> 00:02:20,100
Dry heat sucks because you just as soon as you try to cool off, I get water on you and immediately evaporates.

36
00:02:20,100 --> 00:02:21,100
You don't cool down at all.

37
00:02:21,100 --> 00:02:22,500
It's a nightmare.

38
00:02:22,500 --> 00:02:23,900
You got to drink it.

39
00:02:23,900 --> 00:02:25,200
Well, yeah, I drink it.

40
00:02:25,200 --> 00:02:31,100
I even had those liquid H, I almost said liquid HIV, liquid, liquid.

41
00:02:31,100 --> 00:02:32,300
I mean, different.

42
00:02:32,300 --> 00:02:34,500
That's for a completely different podcast.

43
00:02:34,500 --> 00:02:37,400
I'm too liquid HIV cocktail party.

44
00:02:37,400 --> 00:02:42,100
Yeah, we just had the liquid IV things and that didn't help at all.

45
00:02:42,100 --> 00:02:48,300
It also didn't help that the second day we were in Vegas, I got incredibly sick and was sick the entire time.

46
00:02:48,300 --> 00:02:54,400
And then, as you know, this weekend was my birthday and I decided to keep fucking up my body

47
00:02:54,400 --> 00:02:59,700
by drinking nonstop and then going to a show and moshing, which I haven't done in a long time.

48
00:02:59,700 --> 00:03:01,000
And then my bones hurt.

49
00:03:01,000 --> 00:03:02,700
All my bones hurt, Nick.

50
00:03:02,700 --> 00:03:06,100
I would have been there with you, but I went to a terrible haunted house last night.

51
00:03:06,100 --> 00:03:10,100
Rich and I were visibly upset.

52
00:03:10,100 --> 00:03:11,500
What was so bad about it?

53
00:03:11,500 --> 00:03:13,600
The lines were way too long.

54
00:03:13,600 --> 00:03:15,600
There was like.

55
00:03:15,600 --> 00:03:20,900
It was just not good, not good for forty five dollars.

56
00:03:20,900 --> 00:03:25,300
It just wasn't wasn't worth the two attractions that were there.

57
00:03:25,300 --> 00:03:28,100
It was an hour away from Rich's house.

58
00:03:28,100 --> 00:03:30,200
Yeah, that's a top ranked in New Jersey.

59
00:03:30,200 --> 00:03:32,900
My ass top ranked in New Jersey.

60
00:03:32,900 --> 00:03:36,400
I would have just went to Six Flags if I knew that was the case.

61
00:03:36,400 --> 00:03:42,800
Like it was fun while I was walking around, but at least Six Flags, like you spend 60 bucks to get the roller coasters.

62
00:03:42,800 --> 00:03:49,100
You get the the Gobble Ghoul running around with a chainsaw.

63
00:03:49,100 --> 00:03:51,300
Sorry, I had to rehydrate.

64
00:03:51,300 --> 00:03:53,100
I'm fucking dying.

65
00:03:53,100 --> 00:03:54,800
Well, I'm sorry I had a bummer haunted house.

66
00:03:54,800 --> 00:03:58,800
There's nothing more of a bummer than a like a shitty haunted house.

67
00:03:58,800 --> 00:04:01,100
Like, yeah, like I love that stuff.

68
00:04:01,100 --> 00:04:02,800
I live for haunted houses.

69
00:04:02,800 --> 00:04:10,800
Well, like especially like if there's a long line to get in, you can kind of like hear the haunt going on and then you're like, well, now I kind of know what to expect before I get in there.

70
00:04:10,800 --> 00:04:11,400
You know what I mean?

71
00:04:11,400 --> 00:04:12,700
That's the crazy part is we in here.

72
00:04:12,700 --> 00:04:13,800
God damn thing.

73
00:04:13,800 --> 00:04:14,900
Really?

74
00:04:14,900 --> 00:04:19,100
It just sucked no matter what.

75
00:04:19,100 --> 00:04:20,100
Well, I'm sorry, man.

76
00:04:20,100 --> 00:04:22,000
That's like, but hey, you know, cheer you up.

77
00:04:22,000 --> 00:04:23,600
Cryptids.

78
00:04:23,600 --> 00:04:25,000
Okay.

79
00:04:25,000 --> 00:04:27,300
I don't know if I'd consider this a cryptid.

80
00:04:27,300 --> 00:04:28,400
We'll figure it out.

81
00:04:28,400 --> 00:04:31,100
But it's just I'm sure you're going to love this story.

82
00:04:31,100 --> 00:04:32,400
I think I always do.

83
00:04:32,400 --> 00:04:33,500
Do you always do?

84
00:04:33,500 --> 00:04:33,700
All right.

85
00:04:33,700 --> 00:04:36,000
So you want to just dive right into this?

86
00:04:36,000 --> 00:04:41,600
Are you familiar with the terrible flying jelly bags of Sweden?

87
00:04:41,600 --> 00:04:43,900
I'm going to go by your face.

88
00:04:43,900 --> 00:04:49,100
I'm going to have to, you know, tell everyone that's not seeing my facial reaction to this.

89
00:04:49,100 --> 00:04:51,400
That's going to be a big fat no.

90
00:04:51,400 --> 00:04:51,700
Okay.

91
00:04:51,700 --> 00:04:52,300
David.

92
00:04:52,300 --> 00:04:55,700
No, I didn't think you would be familiar with it.

93
00:04:55,700 --> 00:04:56,000
All right.

94
00:04:56,000 --> 00:04:57,400
And you said jelly bags.

95
00:04:57,400 --> 00:04:57,900
Oh, yeah.

96
00:04:57,900 --> 00:05:01,900
We'll get don't worry.

97
00:05:01,900 --> 00:05:02,300
All right.

98
00:05:02,300 --> 00:05:11,900
So on December 20th, 1958, a couple of dudes from Sweden named Hans Gustafsson, age 25 and his buddy Stig Rydberg, age 30.

99
00:05:11,900 --> 00:05:13,500
That's a great name.

100
00:05:13,500 --> 00:05:15,700
Stig is a great name.

101
00:05:15,700 --> 00:05:20,600
They're heading back to Hans's mother's house after a night on the town with their lady friends.

102
00:05:20,600 --> 00:05:24,600
Now, I have no idea what Swedish nightlife was like in the night in like 1958.

103
00:05:24,600 --> 00:05:27,200
I'm going to assume it was fucking weird.

104
00:05:27,200 --> 00:05:29,000
I don't know why I feel that way.

105
00:05:29,000 --> 00:05:29,800
I just do.

106
00:05:29,800 --> 00:05:32,500
I think that they love the nightlife.

107
00:05:32,500 --> 00:05:34,700
They love to boogie.

108
00:05:34,700 --> 00:05:38,800
They like the disco and ride.

109
00:05:38,800 --> 00:05:44,000
But I did learn that the 1958 World Cup was in Sweden.

110
00:05:44,000 --> 00:05:44,800
So that's kind of cool.

111
00:05:44,800 --> 00:05:48,100
And then really the first indoor hockey rink was inaugurated there.

112
00:05:48,100 --> 00:05:49,500
So it's kind of fun.

113
00:05:49,500 --> 00:05:50,700
That part doesn't surprise me.

114
00:05:50,700 --> 00:05:52,600
They they love their hockey.

115
00:05:52,600 --> 00:05:55,900
Yeah, I just assumed it would be sooner than 1958.

116
00:05:55,900 --> 00:06:00,100
I mean, how they get a how they get to cool the ice.

117
00:06:00,100 --> 00:06:01,700
It's indoor.

118
00:06:01,700 --> 00:06:02,400
Fair.

119
00:06:02,400 --> 00:06:06,100
I didn't even think about the technology needed to do something about.

120
00:06:06,100 --> 00:06:12,000
Anyways, as as the pair traveled the quick trek back to Heinz, Heinz Berg.

121
00:06:12,000 --> 00:06:13,800
Holy shit.

122
00:06:13,800 --> 00:06:15,900
I can't read somebody's names.

123
00:06:15,900 --> 00:06:18,300
Somebody is having a time of his life.

124
00:06:18,300 --> 00:06:20,800
It's Swedish names and my brain is on fire.

125
00:06:20,800 --> 00:06:22,200
I don't understand what's happening.

126
00:06:22,200 --> 00:06:28,200
So as the pair travel, the quick start trek back to Heisenberg from Hagenas,

127
00:06:28,200 --> 00:06:33,900
Hans's force to slow his car down to a crawl due to an unusually thick and soupy fog

128
00:06:33,900 --> 00:06:35,800
that pretty much obscured everything.

129
00:06:35,800 --> 00:06:39,200
Think like like the mist type of fog.

130
00:06:39,200 --> 00:06:40,600
Oh, great movie.

131
00:06:40,600 --> 00:06:41,900
That mist is terrifying.

132
00:06:41,900 --> 00:06:42,800
I don't like it.

133
00:06:42,800 --> 00:06:44,400
So finally around 3 a.m.

134
00:06:44,400 --> 00:06:49,300
near the village of Domston, they decided to pull off the road to swash your legs,

135
00:06:49,300 --> 00:06:52,400
wait for the fog to roll out and take a quick roadside piss.

136
00:06:52,400 --> 00:06:54,100
That's actually what they said they were doing.

137
00:06:54,100 --> 00:06:55,400
I didn't add the info flare.

138
00:06:55,400 --> 00:06:57,200
They were actually just taking piss on the side of the road.

139
00:06:57,200 --> 00:07:01,500
So as they were taking turns pissing on a tree or crossing streams or whatever,

140
00:07:01,500 --> 00:07:06,200
they noticed a weird glow coming from the trees about 150 yards away

141
00:07:06,200 --> 00:07:10,600
and being young and presumably drunk as all hell, considering it's 3 a.m.

142
00:07:10,600 --> 00:07:14,200
They're coming from a night out on the town and they're pissing on the side of the road.

143
00:07:14,200 --> 00:07:15,300
They decided to go check it out.

144
00:07:15,300 --> 00:07:16,600
We've all been there.

145
00:07:16,600 --> 00:07:18,400
Oh, 100 percent.

146
00:07:18,400 --> 00:07:22,200
Listen, I pee on the side of the road even when I'm not hung like hammered.

147
00:07:22,200 --> 00:07:23,700
Oh, yeah, I pee on the side of the road all the time.

148
00:07:23,700 --> 00:07:25,600
I did it in the middle of the desert because I could not hold it.

149
00:07:25,600 --> 00:07:27,700
And then there was a cow.

150
00:07:27,700 --> 00:07:29,500
First off, you really weren't in the middle of the desert.

151
00:07:29,500 --> 00:07:30,900
You were in Vegas.

152
00:07:30,900 --> 00:07:33,300
No, we went. We drove to the Grand Canyon.

153
00:07:33,300 --> 00:07:33,800
Oh, did you really?

154
00:07:33,800 --> 00:07:35,400
Yeah, we were in the desert.

155
00:07:35,400 --> 00:07:37,000
Oh, OK.

156
00:07:37,000 --> 00:07:38,200
And then Vegas is the desert.

157
00:07:38,200 --> 00:07:38,900
You fucking fool.

158
00:07:38,900 --> 00:07:41,200
Outside of the strip, you're in the desert.

159
00:07:41,200 --> 00:07:42,700
Yeah, but you're really not.

160
00:07:42,700 --> 00:07:44,700
You're not in Vegas when you're outside of the strip.

161
00:07:44,700 --> 00:07:47,400
You're like you're in the desert.

162
00:07:47,400 --> 00:07:50,300
Yeah, that's what I'm saying.

163
00:07:50,300 --> 00:07:52,100
Stop derailing the show, Nicholas.

164
00:07:52,100 --> 00:07:54,600
You don't know what you're talking about.

165
00:07:54,600 --> 00:07:56,900
So these they're they're hammered.

166
00:07:56,900 --> 00:07:57,900
I've been to Vegas.

167
00:07:57,900 --> 00:07:59,200
You know, and I haven't been Sweden.

168
00:07:59,200 --> 00:08:03,300
I don't know anything about these these flying jelly bags.

169
00:08:03,300 --> 00:08:06,600
Well, as they were walking to the source of the unknown lights,

170
00:08:06,600 --> 00:08:09,400
they stopped by a no camping in this area sign.

171
00:08:09,400 --> 00:08:11,800
And that's when they spotted the source of the mysterious lights

172
00:08:11,800 --> 00:08:13,700
illuminating through the fog.

173
00:08:13,700 --> 00:08:19,100
It was a three foot high, 15 foot wide saucer that they said was, quote,

174
00:08:19,400 --> 00:08:22,600
made of a peculiar shimmering light that changed color.

175
00:08:23,100 --> 00:08:26,000
I don't know if I was I talking to you about this or Luke, but like,

176
00:08:26,000 --> 00:08:29,600
why do UFOs always change, like change color lights?

177
00:08:29,600 --> 00:08:31,700
Like, why is that?

178
00:08:31,700 --> 00:08:35,800
So I have heard a few different theories on this.

179
00:08:35,800 --> 00:08:36,800
Yeah.

180
00:08:36,800 --> 00:08:40,600
The most popular is especially in our atmosphere and our airspace.

181
00:08:40,600 --> 00:08:44,800
They're trying to blend in with planes, with helicopters and stuff like that.

182
00:08:45,800 --> 00:08:50,000
The other train of thought there is to is based on the movie

183
00:08:50,000 --> 00:08:55,600
Close Encounters of a Third Kind, where they're using lights to almost communicate.

184
00:08:56,000 --> 00:08:59,160
OK, because I think when the Pesca

185
00:08:59,160 --> 00:09:02,300
Quala space penguin one episode we did,

186
00:09:03,100 --> 00:09:07,300
that also had like a like it spun different colored lights on the inside

187
00:09:07,300 --> 00:09:08,800
and shit like that, too.

188
00:09:08,800 --> 00:09:10,200
And I think there was another one that did it.

189
00:09:10,200 --> 00:09:11,800
I just don't understand the reasoning why.

190
00:09:11,800 --> 00:09:12,600
But that that makes sense.

191
00:09:12,600 --> 00:09:15,500
They either want to blend in or they're trying to communicate that tracks.

192
00:09:16,100 --> 00:09:18,800
I'll take it. I'll take that.

193
00:09:18,800 --> 00:09:20,300
I'll take that all the way to the bank.

194
00:09:20,300 --> 00:09:22,600
So now up to this point,

195
00:09:23,100 --> 00:09:25,900
this sounds just like another boring UFO alien story.

196
00:09:25,900 --> 00:09:28,400
And Nick, I didn't bring you on here to waste your time.

197
00:09:28,400 --> 00:09:30,000
That's not what I'm about.

198
00:09:30,000 --> 00:09:32,700
OK, this is where the story gets fucking bonkers.

199
00:09:34,100 --> 00:09:37,300
I mean, listen, I don't think you're I'm already sold.

200
00:09:37,700 --> 00:09:40,400
You got flying jelly bags.

201
00:09:40,400 --> 00:09:42,600
I'm a man who loves I'm a man who loves jelly.

202
00:09:42,600 --> 00:09:45,200
Well, we haven't even gotten to the jelly bags yet.

203
00:09:46,500 --> 00:09:48,000
That's why I'm already invested.

204
00:09:48,000 --> 00:09:50,700
Now, before they could really take in what they were seeing,

205
00:09:50,800 --> 00:09:53,600
because I'm assuming that seeing a UFO would probably make it kind of like

206
00:09:53,600 --> 00:09:55,400
pause and shut down for a second.

207
00:09:55,400 --> 00:09:58,900
The two suddenly found themselves surrounded by three foot long

208
00:09:59,200 --> 00:10:04,300
undulating jelly blobs that Rideberg described as looking like a protozoa

209
00:10:04,600 --> 00:10:08,900
that was bluish in color and hopped and jumped like globs of animated jelly,

210
00:10:09,400 --> 00:10:12,900
which, again, I'm sure would kind of make you just sit there for a minute

211
00:10:12,900 --> 00:10:15,000
in disbelief because it's the right thing.

212
00:10:15,000 --> 00:10:16,600
Like, what the fuck is going on?

213
00:10:16,600 --> 00:10:19,200
Which is probably what happened. Yeah.

214
00:10:19,200 --> 00:10:20,200
What do you say?

215
00:10:20,200 --> 00:10:22,500
So you just look at like imagine this.

216
00:10:22,500 --> 00:10:26,200
You're hammered. You've had a I don't know what the Swiss drink.

217
00:10:26,700 --> 00:10:28,500
I imagine it's something fancy.

218
00:10:28,500 --> 00:10:30,300
You know, with champagne. OK.

219
00:10:30,300 --> 00:10:32,400
Hammered off champagne.

220
00:10:32,400 --> 00:10:36,800
And you see a essentially a blob.

221
00:10:37,200 --> 00:10:41,200
Yeah. Just kind of going through flash animations.

222
00:10:41,400 --> 00:10:43,600
Yeah, pretty much in front of you.

223
00:10:43,600 --> 00:10:46,000
That's terrifying. Yeah.

224
00:10:46,000 --> 00:10:49,900
But it gets worse because before, like I said, before they could even really read

225
00:10:49,900 --> 00:10:53,500
the room, the jelly swarmed over Rideberg and Gustafson,

226
00:10:53,900 --> 00:10:58,000
engulfing their limbs inside their surprisingly tough gelatinous body.

227
00:10:58,000 --> 00:11:02,000
Now, with their suction like force, the jelly started dragging them back

228
00:11:02,000 --> 00:11:06,100
to their ship, while other jellies around them did what the two described

229
00:11:06,100 --> 00:11:10,200
as some sort of macabre dance around the ship, but also around them.

230
00:11:10,700 --> 00:11:15,100
And also they smell that apparently it said that they felt strongly of ether

231
00:11:15,100 --> 00:11:16,100
and burnt sausage.

232
00:11:16,100 --> 00:11:19,600
So that's a that's an award winning combination right there.

233
00:11:19,600 --> 00:11:23,500
If you ask me, your face says you don't enjoy that.

234
00:11:24,000 --> 00:11:26,400
No, I like I honestly kind of hate that.

235
00:11:26,600 --> 00:11:29,300
Yeah, it's bad smell.

236
00:11:29,300 --> 00:11:31,400
Everything about it. I don't like.

237
00:11:35,600 --> 00:11:37,100
How do I put this?

238
00:11:37,100 --> 00:11:40,300
Because I enjoy a jam.

239
00:11:40,300 --> 00:11:42,600
Right. Like I enjoy like.

240
00:11:42,600 --> 00:11:46,300
Grape jelly, but I don't like you remember when a.

241
00:11:47,400 --> 00:11:51,200
Gloop was a thing when people were super into like the the slime.

242
00:11:51,400 --> 00:11:53,100
Oh yeah, the Nickelodeon slime and shit like that.

243
00:11:53,100 --> 00:11:55,200
I hate. Well, I got slimed as a kid.

244
00:11:55,200 --> 00:11:57,600
OK, true story. Traumatized.

245
00:11:57,600 --> 00:12:00,700
Oh, yeah, dude, I had it like in my ears.

246
00:12:00,700 --> 00:12:03,900
It smelled like rotten pears. I'm allergic to pears.

247
00:12:04,600 --> 00:12:06,500
It was a whole whole lot of deal.

248
00:12:06,500 --> 00:12:10,900
So now anyone's making like that cornstarch slime and I see it on Tiktok, like the

249
00:12:10,900 --> 00:12:15,060
the hair on my arms stands up.

250
00:12:15,260 --> 00:12:19,720
So this is actually a genuine nightmare of mine of being pulled back to an alien

251
00:12:19,720 --> 00:12:22,860
spaceship by just slime time slime.

252
00:12:22,960 --> 00:12:27,220
Yeah. And this is now, mind you, this is all happening while other jellies

253
00:12:27,220 --> 00:12:31,360
are fucking like dancing in like a weird midsummer fucking like.

254
00:12:31,360 --> 00:12:34,600
Yeah. What is the Taylor Swift movie like?

255
00:12:34,760 --> 00:12:37,700
Premier, dude, with Swifties dancing around.

256
00:12:37,700 --> 00:12:39,400
Yeah. Oh, but also, Nick, it gets worse.

257
00:12:39,400 --> 00:12:42,620
So the men obviously frantic tried to escape, but as soon as either of them

258
00:12:42,620 --> 00:12:45,960
gotten a pendant out from one of the like the dancing jelly bags,

259
00:12:45,960 --> 00:12:48,200
another one would just latch on.

260
00:12:48,200 --> 00:12:52,000
Rydberg even tried punching one, which is probably the worst idea,

261
00:12:52,000 --> 00:12:55,800
because he just ended up getting enveloped up to his elbow in jelly.

262
00:12:56,360 --> 00:13:00,920
Now, finally, Rydberg was able to get free and made a mad dash for the car.

263
00:13:00,920 --> 00:13:04,400
Looking back over his shoulder, he can see that Gustafsson wasn't so lucky,

264
00:13:04,400 --> 00:13:06,800
which I mean, I get it.

265
00:13:06,800 --> 00:13:09,400
Nick, if it was the two of us, I'd fucking bail to. I'm sorry.

266
00:13:09,520 --> 00:13:12,320
Like, honestly, say, fuck you, fuck those jellies. I'm out of here.

267
00:13:12,500 --> 00:13:15,220
I love you. But like, I can't do the jelly.

268
00:13:15,220 --> 00:13:16,820
Yeah, no. It's like a gray.

269
00:13:16,820 --> 00:13:18,420
I'd punch a gray for you.

270
00:13:18,420 --> 00:13:21,520
Yeah, because there's a because they're solid.

271
00:13:21,520 --> 00:13:25,560
And I feel like just the first reaction to punch something

272
00:13:25,560 --> 00:13:27,760
that was clearly already engulfing you.

273
00:13:27,760 --> 00:13:30,920
Not not the best look.

274
00:13:30,920 --> 00:13:32,820
In my opinion, I want to know what happened to this guy.

275
00:13:32,820 --> 00:13:37,520
Oh, well, Gustafsson could only watch.

276
00:13:37,520 --> 00:13:38,500
He's dead.

277
00:13:38,500 --> 00:13:41,000
Well, Gustafsson could only watch as his friend ran away,

278
00:13:41,000 --> 00:13:43,420
leaving him to be swarmed by these jelly like creatures,

279
00:13:43,720 --> 00:13:46,560
which have now engulfed him up to his abdomen.

280
00:13:46,920 --> 00:13:50,360
And we're pulling him so hard that he's now horizontal to the ground

281
00:13:50,360 --> 00:13:52,820
as he's holding on to the no camping sign for dear life.

282
00:13:53,320 --> 00:13:55,000
The other thing, too, is that these things float.

283
00:13:55,000 --> 00:13:56,360
They're not on the ground.

284
00:13:56,360 --> 00:13:59,500
So they're like hovering above the ground, bouncing around and fucking shit like that.

285
00:13:59,500 --> 00:14:03,620
So they're just pulling him and he's just horizontal to the ground.

286
00:14:03,860 --> 00:14:05,200
That's how forceful they are.

287
00:14:07,420 --> 00:14:10,200
I don't know if them not having feet makes it worse or better.

288
00:14:11,000 --> 00:14:12,360
I don't think it's so much worse.

289
00:14:12,360 --> 00:14:13,700
I don't think it makes it worse or better.

290
00:14:13,700 --> 00:14:16,000
I think it's just all nightmarish all around.

291
00:14:16,000 --> 00:14:17,220
No, I hate.

292
00:14:17,220 --> 00:14:20,920
So even if they had feet, I hate this.

293
00:14:21,160 --> 00:14:22,000
Yeah, it's all bad.

294
00:14:22,000 --> 00:14:26,100
Now, Rydberg being decidedly not the hero of the story, obviously,

295
00:14:26,100 --> 00:14:29,460
because he ran away from his friend, realized there's nothing he could do.

296
00:14:29,460 --> 00:14:33,360
And just continued his mad dash to the car with two of the globs hot on his heels.

297
00:14:33,760 --> 00:14:38,220
He was able to get to the car, hop inside and slam the door before being,

298
00:14:38,760 --> 00:14:41,460
you know, like globulated by the jelly globs.

299
00:14:41,460 --> 00:14:42,820
Glob globulated.

300
00:14:42,820 --> 00:14:44,620
I don't know. I just what I wrote.

301
00:14:44,620 --> 00:14:48,160
No, he when he got in the car, he punched his fist into the car horn.

302
00:14:48,160 --> 00:14:52,360
He did this in the hopes of getting someone like anyone's attention to come help them.

303
00:14:52,800 --> 00:14:54,600
But they're in the middle of really nowhere.

304
00:14:54,600 --> 00:14:57,420
But luckily for the pair, the sound of the car horns

305
00:14:57,420 --> 00:15:00,400
seemed to have scared the jelly bags because the two outside the car

306
00:15:00,400 --> 00:15:02,560
immediately turned around and headed back to the ship.

307
00:15:02,960 --> 00:15:06,100
While the ones that were wrapped around Gustafson released him from their grip

308
00:15:06,100 --> 00:15:09,800
and he fell to the ground in just like a heap, just an absolute pile of a man.

309
00:15:09,920 --> 00:15:12,600
Like just crumpled.

310
00:15:13,400 --> 00:15:16,460
Now, obviously feeling a sense of relief and adrenaline,

311
00:15:16,460 --> 00:15:20,400
he immediately got to his feet and ran for the car, looking behind him briefly

312
00:15:20,400 --> 00:15:22,820
to see the disc shaped craft taking off into the sky.

313
00:15:23,460 --> 00:15:26,060
The two men now safely in the car.

314
00:15:26,060 --> 00:15:29,720
They just sat there in silence, obviously, tear streaming down their face,

315
00:15:29,720 --> 00:15:32,160
the scent of burnt sausage lingering in the air.

316
00:15:32,620 --> 00:15:34,800
The encounter only lasted five minutes.

317
00:15:35,820 --> 00:15:39,100
But I'm assuming it's something that stuck with them for a lifetime.

318
00:15:39,100 --> 00:15:43,060
It took the men over 25 minutes of like just stunned silence

319
00:15:43,060 --> 00:15:46,400
and sobbing to calm down long enough to finish the drive home.

320
00:15:46,560 --> 00:15:49,620
Normally, you think that's where the story would end. But

321
00:15:50,620 --> 00:15:53,520
please tell me there was more sightings of these fucking things.

322
00:15:53,520 --> 00:15:56,980
There was not. But once the two men got home,

323
00:15:56,980 --> 00:16:00,220
they decided that they weren't going to speak a word of this encounter to anyone.

324
00:16:00,260 --> 00:16:03,580
They weren't too worried about being

325
00:16:03,620 --> 00:16:05,860
like ridiculed or mocked or anything like that.

326
00:16:05,860 --> 00:16:08,660
Like I would say that was going to be that was going to happen no matter what.

327
00:16:08,660 --> 00:16:12,520
They were more worried about like their mental state being brought into question.

328
00:16:12,620 --> 00:16:14,960
Like people thinking they were just absolutely crazy.

329
00:16:16,120 --> 00:16:18,020
So for three days, they just kept quiet.

330
00:16:18,020 --> 00:16:21,820
Rydberg was unable to sleep for those three days, and both him and Gustafson

331
00:16:21,820 --> 00:16:26,360
were clearly suffering from anxiety, depression, just full on like PTSD from the encounter.

332
00:16:27,820 --> 00:16:29,700
But it wasn't just the mental health that plagued them.

333
00:16:29,700 --> 00:16:35,060
They also obviously had physical injuries, bruises, scrapes, bloodshot eyes.

334
00:16:35,060 --> 00:16:37,760
I'm assuming from crying and the ether smell probably didn't help that.

335
00:16:38,420 --> 00:16:40,060
And those injuries didn't go unnoticed.

336
00:16:40,060 --> 00:16:45,220
Both Hans's mom and brother noticed the change in both his and his friend's behavior,

337
00:16:45,220 --> 00:16:48,820
as well as the injuries. So Hans decided it was time to come clean.

338
00:16:48,820 --> 00:16:55,420
And he ended up him and Stig ended up telling Hans's mom about the experience over breakfast.

339
00:16:56,220 --> 00:17:01,960
Here's how his mom described her reaction to being told the story, quote, I burst out laughing.

340
00:17:04,820 --> 00:17:09,820
But like, what do you honestly, though, what do you expect is going to happen?

341
00:17:09,820 --> 00:17:17,260
Yeah, I know for a fact, if I told either of my parents that Angela would laugh her ass off at me.

342
00:17:17,260 --> 00:17:19,020
Oh, yeah. And Paul just wouldn't.

343
00:17:20,020 --> 00:17:24,420
I don't think he'd even have a reaction like, sure, Nick, that sucks.

344
00:17:24,420 --> 00:17:26,420
It's a bummer, man. And he'd go about his day.

345
00:17:26,420 --> 00:17:28,420
Well, yeah. But I mean, what are you going to do?

346
00:17:28,420 --> 00:17:30,920
Be like, do you want me to go find the aliens for you?

347
00:17:30,920 --> 00:17:33,420
Like, I mean, I guess maybe console them.

348
00:17:33,420 --> 00:17:39,420
But yeah, so basically he told his mom and then just like his worst fear came true.

349
00:17:39,420 --> 00:17:41,920
He just laughed at him. His brother laughed at him.

350
00:17:42,420 --> 00:17:46,420
But it wasn't long after the group realized that this wasn't just some made up story.

351
00:17:46,420 --> 00:17:50,420
But an actual event that happened to these two young men that left them pretty shaken to their core.

352
00:17:50,420 --> 00:17:56,420
So Hansa's mom did what any good mother would do to try and help get her son to help, you know, that he needs.

353
00:17:56,420 --> 00:18:02,420
So she contacted the largest newspaper in Sweden and told her son's story to them.

354
00:18:03,420 --> 00:18:06,420
Because what can go wrong?

355
00:18:06,420 --> 00:18:09,420
Well, no one really knows why she decided to go to the press to tell her son's story,

356
00:18:09,420 --> 00:18:13,420
which I'm almost 100 percent certain that she did without his knowledge.

357
00:18:13,420 --> 00:18:17,420
I don't think he knew. Oh, no, he didn't know in the slightest bit.

358
00:18:17,420 --> 00:18:18,420
Yeah. No fucking idea.

359
00:18:18,420 --> 00:18:24,420
No. So some say she legit thought it would help maybe someone see it and he'd be able to get like a mental evaluation

360
00:18:24,420 --> 00:18:26,420
or like someone could come and try and research it.

361
00:18:26,420 --> 00:18:33,420
Others say it was a drum up business for their dry cleaning business that she ran that her son and Stig, I believe, also worked at.

362
00:18:33,420 --> 00:18:35,420
Either way, nothing good came from.

363
00:18:35,420 --> 00:18:40,420
Well, yeah, because why would you want to go to the dry cleaners that gets attacked by slime?

364
00:18:40,420 --> 00:18:43,420
True. And I bet that should stains your clothes.

365
00:18:43,420 --> 00:18:46,420
Oh, it stains, probably destroys it.

366
00:18:46,420 --> 00:18:48,420
Yeah. Texture wise.

367
00:18:48,420 --> 00:18:50,420
I can't imagine it'd be wearable after that.

368
00:18:50,420 --> 00:18:52,420
I would burn it. It's not what you need.

369
00:18:52,420 --> 00:18:56,420
Oh, yeah. I'd burn myself afterwards.

370
00:18:56,420 --> 00:18:58,420
I don't give a fuck. I don't fuck with slime.

371
00:18:58,420 --> 00:19:00,420
I just don't. It's all over.

372
00:19:00,420 --> 00:19:03,420
Now, the two quickly became very well known in Sweden.

373
00:19:03,420 --> 00:19:16,420
And in January of 1959, they were called in the Helsingborg police station for an interview that quickly became what boiled down to an 11 in an 11 hour interrogation.

374
00:19:16,420 --> 00:19:22,420
Officially, the interview was to satisfy the military and their concerns about unknown technologies infiltrating their airspace.

375
00:19:22,420 --> 00:19:28,420
But in reality, they were just trying to get them to confess that it was all a hoax and none of it actually happened.

376
00:19:28,420 --> 00:19:36,420
But the boys kept to their story. The cops even wired the room to try and catch them talking about the quote unquote hoax when they thought they were alone.

377
00:19:36,420 --> 00:19:39,420
But they stuck with the story. They never changed it once.

378
00:19:39,420 --> 00:19:50,420
So after the brutal interrogation and a whole slew of physical and psychological tests, which lasted almost a week, the men were officially deemed physically and mentally fit.

379
00:19:50,420 --> 00:19:58,420
But that didn't matter because officially the Swedish military still deemed it a hoax and totally just shit on these dudes.

380
00:19:58,420 --> 00:20:05,420
So, yeah, but there you have it. That is the the story of the terrible flying jelly bags, aka the Dompston blobs.

381
00:20:05,420 --> 00:20:11,420
Now, Nick, I'm going to ask how you're feeling about this, but I can already guess that you fucking hate it.

382
00:20:11,420 --> 00:20:19,420
But I like this. I hate it. I genuinely, Dave, I cannot wait to not think about this anymore.

383
00:20:19,420 --> 00:20:24,420
Like I so I love aliens. Right. I like hearing about alien encounters.

384
00:20:24,420 --> 00:20:29,420
I like hearing about like as fuck as I like hearing abduction cases.

385
00:20:29,420 --> 00:20:34,420
Yeah, I think there's something to be learned there. Right. There's a lot of cool shit that's going on.

386
00:20:34,420 --> 00:20:39,420
But there's no motive with these fucking blobs. You can't even you can't even get a face reading on it.

387
00:20:39,420 --> 00:20:44,420
At least the gray you can kind of see like, you know, there's facial expressions.

388
00:20:44,420 --> 00:20:52,420
This is the blob. You're literally dealing with like, you know, the pink blob from Phoenixville, just pulling you back into a ship.

389
00:20:52,420 --> 00:20:56,420
Not to mention your mom laughs at you when you tell her. Right.

390
00:20:56,420 --> 00:21:06,420
And then like in the entirety of your country that knows, which is true for most larger alien sightings and abductions and all that stuff.

391
00:21:06,420 --> 00:21:12,420
But like, oh, by the way, your government thinks it's a hoax and essentially tells you to go fuck yourself.

392
00:21:12,420 --> 00:21:19,420
I hate it. And every time Stig walks into a bar, they're like, hey, Stiggy.

393
00:21:19,420 --> 00:21:23,420
Hold on. I can't do a Switzerland accent or Swiss accent or I would do it.

394
00:21:23,420 --> 00:21:31,420
But they're like, hey, Stig, where are your blobs? And they're like, what happens if his partner is like mildly overweight?

395
00:21:31,420 --> 00:21:39,420
Oh, well, they were three feet tall, so it's fine. But also I feel like they start calling them sticky.

396
00:21:39,420 --> 00:21:43,420
Oh, yeah. It was that it went from Stig to Stiggy. There's no way.

397
00:21:43,420 --> 00:21:50,420
But yeah, I imagine like you're holding on to this for three days and your biggest fear is people thinking you're crazy and that people are going to laugh at you.

398
00:21:50,420 --> 00:22:01,420
And as soon as you come out to your mom and brother, their first reaction is to just fucking laugh at you and then put your shit on blast in the largest newspaper in Sweden.

399
00:22:01,420 --> 00:22:04,420
That is such a dick move. Like, yeah, you're not.

400
00:22:04,420 --> 00:22:11,420
That would be like if you told me you had an encounter in confidence and then I laughed at you and then called the New York Times.

401
00:22:11,420 --> 00:22:14,420
Yeah, I feel like that's just not OK.

402
00:22:14,420 --> 00:22:19,420
Well, yeah. But yeah, Nick, there you have it. That's the Swedish meatball story.

403
00:22:19,420 --> 00:22:23,420
I'm going to go cry myself to sleep.

404
00:22:23,420 --> 00:22:30,420
If IKEA does not have a like a line of bean bags and they're not called the jelly bags.

405
00:22:30,420 --> 00:22:35,420
The Swedish jelly bag. It's a missed opportunity. But you know what? I guarantee that not a lot of Swiss people even know about this.

406
00:22:35,420 --> 00:22:41,420
True. It has to be filled like Orbeez or something like that. It had to be like weird. It could just be a bean bag.

407
00:22:41,420 --> 00:22:46,420
And it could just be a bean bag or you can just make it out of that slime.

408
00:22:46,420 --> 00:22:50,420
No, I'd hate that. If it busted open, that should make a mess everywhere.

409
00:22:50,420 --> 00:22:57,420
Well, no, you put like you put the slime in the core and then you get like a really thick, like, but malleable rubber to go around it.

410
00:22:57,420 --> 00:23:01,420
And then you have I think it'd be all right. All right. We'll look into this.

411
00:23:01,420 --> 00:23:05,420
Well, no, we won't.

412
00:23:05,420 --> 00:23:11,420
We don't need to look into this. I feel like the last two times you've come on, I've just absolutely bummed you out.

413
00:23:11,420 --> 00:23:19,420
Like the one before this was fine. I genuinely like you can ask my mom. I don't like I have a texture thing.

414
00:23:19,420 --> 00:23:24,420
So you're saying that the men in the gala. You would take that over. Yeah.

415
00:23:24,420 --> 00:23:30,420
And any day, any day, really any day, because the men in the gala is really not going to come after me.

416
00:23:30,420 --> 00:23:38,420
But it's going to like the for the gel, the flying Swedish jelly bags are going to try and pull me into the ship.

417
00:23:38,420 --> 00:23:43,420
And I got to be honest, I don't want that in my life. No, no way.

418
00:23:43,420 --> 00:23:50,420
I'm into a lot of things. I'm a pretty open minded guy. Yeah. Fuck that, Joe.

419
00:23:50,420 --> 00:23:56,420
Fuck that, Joe. Fair. I mean, yeah, it's it's bad.

420
00:23:56,420 --> 00:24:00,420
But I mean, at the same time, like, I bet they're kind of cute.

421
00:24:00,420 --> 00:24:04,420
No, they're not. They're just fucking Joe. If they weren't aggressive, I bet they'd be cute.

422
00:24:04,420 --> 00:24:09,420
It's just like this is not this is not a ditto. It could be. It's not.

423
00:24:09,420 --> 00:24:12,420
It is on face. We don't know.

424
00:24:12,420 --> 00:24:19,420
But we do know because it's sad. But it reminds me, but just like it reminds me like every anime now that my wife watches something like

425
00:24:19,420 --> 00:24:24,420
I died and I'm reincarnated as a slime or I died and now I'm a slime farmer.

426
00:24:24,420 --> 00:24:27,420
So I just picture those slimes from those and it's cute.

427
00:24:27,420 --> 00:24:33,420
But I don't like that they were doing a midsummer dance while basically torturing these two men.

428
00:24:33,420 --> 00:24:37,420
Imagine this. What are they going to do with them?

429
00:24:37,420 --> 00:24:41,420
Do they eat them? They turn them into they dissolve them.

430
00:24:41,420 --> 00:24:46,420
So I'm saying it's like a gelatinous cube from Dungeons and Dragons. That kind of thing.

431
00:24:46,420 --> 00:24:49,420
So like, let me ask this. They they grab them, right?

432
00:24:49,420 --> 00:25:04,420
And the other ones are dancing like, you know, like I'm sure they're not singing a song, but in my head, they're like, oh, like super fucked up fucking the dwarves in like Moria.

433
00:25:04,420 --> 00:25:09,420
Like it's just in my head is way more haunting, but the jellies are way cuter.

434
00:25:09,420 --> 00:25:13,420
Like the scenario is super fucked up, but just like really cute jellies.

435
00:25:13,420 --> 00:25:18,420
It's you're just telling me that it's it's more so I don't even know.

436
00:25:18,420 --> 00:25:21,420
I lost my train of thought. Shit. All right.

437
00:25:21,420 --> 00:25:25,420
I had it and I lost it. I'm really sorry I bummed you out.

438
00:25:25,420 --> 00:25:28,420
But hey, it's done. It's over. That's the story.

439
00:25:28,420 --> 00:25:32,420
It's a good story, though. Come on. It's a great story.

440
00:25:32,420 --> 00:25:41,420
Punched a fight. You know what makes me feel bad is like Stig now is never going to look at his friend the same way because he left his friend.

441
00:25:41,420 --> 00:25:47,420
Yeah, I mean. It is fucked up Stig Bale.

442
00:25:47,420 --> 00:25:51,420
He was like, see you later. Hans is getting like dissolved.

443
00:25:51,420 --> 00:25:54,420
I guarantee you that man lost at least an inch that day.

444
00:25:54,420 --> 00:25:59,420
But yeah, but again, at the same time, Nick, I'm sorry, but if you were getting eaten by a jelly bag, I'm fucking out.

445
00:25:59,420 --> 00:26:02,420
I'm dipping, man. I'm out. Oh, dude, same.

446
00:26:02,420 --> 00:26:08,420
Listen, I'll take care of the dogs. I'll go over for tea with Ali every day.

447
00:26:08,420 --> 00:26:11,420
I'm like, fuck that jail. Yeah, no, I get it.

448
00:26:11,420 --> 00:26:15,420
And honestly, at that point, fuck you. Fuck you, too. Fuck you. Fuck these jellies.

449
00:26:15,420 --> 00:26:18,420
I'm out of here. Suck my dick. I'm out. All right.

450
00:26:18,420 --> 00:26:22,420
Like deuces. Tell the people what you got going on.

451
00:26:22,420 --> 00:26:25,420
If you want to plug your stuff, I know you got some shit going on.

452
00:26:25,420 --> 00:26:29,420
Yes. So our website is finally up.

455
00:26:39,420 --> 00:26:42,420

459
00:26:58,420 --> 00:27:01,420
Speaking of, you know who I found out is becoming a watchmaker.

460
00:27:01,420 --> 00:27:07,420
Watchmaker. Oh, he like makes repairs watches.

461
00:27:07,420 --> 00:27:13,420
Mutual friend. I have no idea. Tucker. Really?

462
00:27:13,420 --> 00:27:17,420
That seems like a job I could see. We've been talking about it for a few weeks.

463
00:27:17,420 --> 00:27:22,420
He's been buying little pieces of machinery. So Tucker, thank you for keeping it alive.

464
00:27:22,420 --> 00:27:26,420
Oh, yeah. Keep it. Keep up the good work, buddy. Keep it on ticking.

465
00:27:26,420 --> 00:27:32,420
All right. Tic Toc. This should be his if he does a big opens a shop.

466
00:27:32,420 --> 00:27:36,420
That's a good watch repair. Oh, that's a great. It's a great one.

467
00:27:36,420 --> 00:27:40,420

471
00:27:54,420 --> 00:27:59,420
I was going to say, do you want to say bye to everyone? Goodbye.

472
00:28:24,420 --> 00:28:26,420
Bye.
