1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:25,960
Hey everybody.

2
00:00:25,960 --> 00:00:29,280
Welcome back to another episode of Krypton cocktail party, a show where we have a few

3
00:00:29,280 --> 00:00:30,280
things to talk about.

4
00:00:30,280 --> 00:00:36,360
I'm your host, Dave, and today I'm joined by, I guess, good friend of the show, Kevin,

5
00:00:36,360 --> 00:00:39,040
a host of where the weird ones are podcast.

6
00:00:39,040 --> 00:00:40,040
How's it going, bud?

7
00:00:40,040 --> 00:00:41,040
It's going fantastic.

8
00:00:41,040 --> 00:00:43,560
I'm so happy to be here.

9
00:00:43,560 --> 00:00:45,520
Thanks for asking me.

10
00:00:45,520 --> 00:00:46,520
Very last minute.

11
00:00:46,520 --> 00:00:50,160
Literally like an hour ago, I think maybe two.

12
00:00:50,160 --> 00:00:52,760
You know, I appreciate you coming on to help out.

13
00:00:52,760 --> 00:00:56,040
But yeah, how are things going with you, man?

14
00:00:56,040 --> 00:00:57,840
Things are pretty good, man.

15
00:00:57,840 --> 00:01:01,040
Over a hundred episodes now, which, God damn, shit.

16
00:01:01,040 --> 00:01:03,760
Whoops, accidentally hit my mute button in my bed.

17
00:01:03,760 --> 00:01:07,280
But yeah, over a hundred episodes now.

18
00:01:07,280 --> 00:01:11,000
Yeah, things are, things are good.

19
00:01:11,000 --> 00:01:13,600
Kids are outside doing chores and shit.

20
00:01:13,600 --> 00:01:17,880
So I'm allowed to come in and talk to you.

21
00:01:17,880 --> 00:01:20,000
You know, put those kids to work.

22
00:01:20,000 --> 00:01:22,040
They have it way too easy these days.

23
00:01:22,040 --> 00:01:23,040
They do.

24
00:01:23,040 --> 00:01:24,040
They do.

25
00:01:24,040 --> 00:01:25,040
They're literally click.

26
00:01:25,040 --> 00:01:26,520
So I have like this little like shed barn thing.

27
00:01:26,520 --> 00:01:28,680
That's where the chickens are.

28
00:01:28,680 --> 00:01:34,400
And in the winter, like I don't get in there and clean as much as I do when it's warmer

29
00:01:34,400 --> 00:01:37,640
out because everything's frozen.

30
00:01:37,640 --> 00:01:41,400
So that's what they're doing right now is cleaning that out for me.

31
00:01:41,400 --> 00:01:42,880
Just shoveling chicken shit.

32
00:01:42,880 --> 00:01:44,440
Yeah, pretty much.

33
00:01:44,440 --> 00:01:47,120
Literally, actually, I should say.

34
00:01:47,120 --> 00:01:51,400
See, that's that's I don't have any kids, but I feel like that's one of the benefits

35
00:01:51,400 --> 00:01:54,960
is you can get them to do the things that you don't want to do.

36
00:01:54,960 --> 00:01:57,560
And you know, that's and if they don't, well, they're in trouble.

37
00:01:57,560 --> 00:01:58,560
You know, it's your chore.

38
00:01:58,560 --> 00:01:59,560
You got to do it.

39
00:01:59,560 --> 00:02:01,560
You're teaching responsibility.

40
00:02:01,560 --> 00:02:02,560
Absolutely.

41
00:02:02,560 --> 00:02:06,400
Every this morning, I had just got back from the gym.

42
00:02:06,400 --> 00:02:07,400
Right.

43
00:02:07,400 --> 00:02:11,160
And I laid on my bed and in my underwear.

44
00:02:11,160 --> 00:02:16,320
And I was like, Brayden, go downstairs and get the laundry out of the washer, the dryer

45
00:02:16,320 --> 00:02:17,880
so I can put pants on.

46
00:02:17,880 --> 00:02:21,400
He's like he goes, the dryer is still going.

47
00:02:21,400 --> 00:02:23,960
I was like, yeah, but they might be dry if you don't mind checking.

48
00:02:23,960 --> 00:02:25,240
And it goes downstairs checks.

49
00:02:25,240 --> 00:02:26,240
He goes, they're still wet.

50
00:02:26,240 --> 00:02:29,360
And I was like, God damn it.

51
00:02:29,360 --> 00:02:31,360
But the effort you put into it was there.

52
00:02:31,360 --> 00:02:32,440
So I applaud you for that.

53
00:02:32,440 --> 00:02:34,200
You attempted to do it.

54
00:02:34,200 --> 00:02:35,200
Didn't quite work out.

55
00:02:35,200 --> 00:02:36,840
But I mean, that's a gamble you got to take, I guess.

56
00:02:36,840 --> 00:02:37,840
Right.

57
00:02:37,840 --> 00:02:38,840
For sure.

58
00:02:38,840 --> 00:02:39,840
For sure.

59
00:02:39,840 --> 00:02:41,920
Because we were going we were getting ready to go out for for lunch.

60
00:02:41,920 --> 00:02:46,320
And I was like, well, maybe I mean, I guess I'll look in my bureau and my I mean, my bureau

61
00:02:46,320 --> 00:02:47,320
is right there.

62
00:02:47,320 --> 00:02:48,600
I should have just did that in the first place.

63
00:02:48,600 --> 00:02:52,360
But there was a pair of pants that I really liked that was in the dryer.

64
00:02:52,360 --> 00:02:57,120
Yeah, well, you can't wear your laundry day clothes out to lunch.

65
00:02:57,120 --> 00:02:59,120
You know, that's why you're doing laundry.

66
00:02:59,120 --> 00:03:00,120
Yeah.

67
00:03:00,120 --> 00:03:01,120
Yes, you're right.

68
00:03:01,120 --> 00:03:02,120
You're right.

69
00:03:02,120 --> 00:03:03,120
You're right.

70
00:03:03,120 --> 00:03:04,120
Oh, shit.

71
00:03:04,120 --> 00:03:05,120
All right, man.

72
00:03:05,120 --> 00:03:08,720
Well, you don't know what we're talking about today, right?

73
00:03:08,720 --> 00:03:10,920
I have absolutely no clue.

74
00:03:10,920 --> 00:03:14,600
But maybe when you bring it up, I'll be like, oh, I might know what this is.

75
00:03:14,600 --> 00:03:16,800
Or maybe you probably will.

76
00:03:16,800 --> 00:03:18,160
Fingers crossed you don't.

77
00:03:18,160 --> 00:03:20,960
Or if you do, maybe you don't know the information I'm going to tell you.

78
00:03:20,960 --> 00:03:23,480
Because that makes a better episode, I feel like.

79
00:03:23,480 --> 00:03:24,480
Yeah.

80
00:03:24,480 --> 00:03:26,640
There's a lot of cryptids up here in Maine, man.

81
00:03:26,640 --> 00:03:31,180
And I was just on a live show with the cryptid huntress and she'd fucking brought up cryptids

82
00:03:31,180 --> 00:03:34,720
that are here in my home state that I fucking have no idea about.

83
00:03:34,720 --> 00:03:36,840
I was like, what the fuck is that thing?

84
00:03:36,840 --> 00:03:38,120
They're everywhere, dude.

85
00:03:38,120 --> 00:03:39,120
And it's I keep learning.

86
00:03:39,120 --> 00:03:41,000
I keep finding new shit constantly.

87
00:03:41,000 --> 00:03:45,200
And it's and I feel bad because some of them they're like, you don't know that exists.

88
00:03:45,200 --> 00:03:46,200
I'm like, fuck you.

89
00:03:46,200 --> 00:03:47,200
I don't know.

90
00:03:47,200 --> 00:03:49,520
There's so many like my brain can only hold so much information.

91
00:03:49,520 --> 00:03:52,360
Yeah, absolutely.

92
00:03:52,360 --> 00:03:53,680
I lose myself sometimes.

93
00:03:53,680 --> 00:03:54,680
All right.

94
00:03:54,680 --> 00:03:58,200
Well, today we're going to be covering a legendary creature that is said to, I don't know, I

95
00:03:58,200 --> 00:04:03,240
guess, patrol the forests of several states, including Delaware, Indiana and Massachusetts.

96
00:04:03,240 --> 00:04:04,680
So pretty close to us.

97
00:04:04,680 --> 00:04:08,840
One that most are familiar with, I would say, in the folklore and cryptozoology community.

98
00:04:08,840 --> 00:04:12,240
But even like normies outside of those circles are familiar.

99
00:04:12,240 --> 00:04:13,240
Pretty much thanks to J.K.

100
00:04:13,240 --> 00:04:16,960
Rowling and her stupid ass Livermore school, like the American schools.

101
00:04:16,960 --> 00:04:20,160
They pretty much the cryptic we're going to be talking about today, you could do one of

102
00:04:20,160 --> 00:04:21,160
those.

103
00:04:21,160 --> 00:04:22,720
Who's that Pokemon thing?

104
00:04:22,720 --> 00:04:26,520
And most people I feel would figure it out pretty easily based off of the silhouette

105
00:04:26,520 --> 00:04:27,800
of this thing.

106
00:04:27,800 --> 00:04:31,560
So today, Kevin, we're going to be covering the Pukwudgie.

107
00:04:31,560 --> 00:04:35,360
Oh, yes, I know so much about the Pukwudgie.

108
00:04:35,360 --> 00:04:36,360
Do you?

109
00:04:36,360 --> 00:04:37,360
Yeah, I do.

110
00:04:37,360 --> 00:04:38,360
I did.

111
00:04:38,360 --> 00:04:43,480
I actually did a paranormal investigation in the Huckamuck swamp with Phil Anderson

112
00:04:43,480 --> 00:04:46,120
from Did you really learn with Phil?

113
00:04:46,120 --> 00:04:47,120
Yeah.

114
00:04:47,120 --> 00:04:53,520
And we got, you know, the SLS cameras where you get figures if there's like a being of

115
00:04:53,520 --> 00:04:54,520
some kind.

116
00:04:54,520 --> 00:04:57,880
Well, we got like a shit ton of like little people while we were out in the swamp and

117
00:04:57,880 --> 00:05:01,840
they were like some of them were like a couple inches and some of them were like two feet

118
00:05:01,840 --> 00:05:02,840
tall.

119
00:05:02,840 --> 00:05:03,840
It was fucking crazy.

120
00:05:03,840 --> 00:05:04,840
I was like, what the hell is happening?

121
00:05:04,840 --> 00:05:05,840
Dude, fuck that.

122
00:05:05,840 --> 00:05:08,360
I would be like, all right, well, we got what we needed.

123
00:05:08,360 --> 00:05:09,360
We can go out.

124
00:05:09,360 --> 00:05:10,360
We can leave now.

125
00:05:10,360 --> 00:05:11,360
That's good.

126
00:05:11,360 --> 00:05:12,360
Good.

127
00:05:12,360 --> 00:05:18,240
So we go over to the to that bush where this figure is and touch the bush so people like

128
00:05:18,240 --> 00:05:22,040
understand like what's going on and stuff.

129
00:05:22,040 --> 00:05:23,040
And I was like, oh shit.

130
00:05:23,040 --> 00:05:24,040
I was like, all right.

131
00:05:24,040 --> 00:05:25,040
And I did.

132
00:05:25,040 --> 00:05:28,320
And then like I stood in front of the camera, too.

133
00:05:28,320 --> 00:05:30,700
So like they could get me graft.

134
00:05:30,700 --> 00:05:36,760
So like, yeah, you know, you could see like my what it does to a person and stuff.

135
00:05:36,760 --> 00:05:39,640
And it was it was interesting.

136
00:05:39,640 --> 00:05:40,880
You go fucking touch the bush.

137
00:05:40,880 --> 00:05:41,880
I'm not going over there.

138
00:05:41,880 --> 00:05:43,120
I'll hold the camera.

139
00:05:43,120 --> 00:05:45,040
You go over there.

140
00:05:45,040 --> 00:05:46,040
I almost said that.

141
00:05:46,040 --> 00:05:50,800
I was like, I'll do it again.

142
00:05:50,800 --> 00:05:55,200
I mean, I guess if I guess if you're in that situation, I probably would do it just because

143
00:05:55,200 --> 00:05:57,800
like, you know, you're you're nice enough to be there with them.

144
00:05:57,800 --> 00:06:01,320
You know, at least you could do is just go stand next to a bush and possibly get stabbed

145
00:06:01,320 --> 00:06:03,920
by a two foot tall hedgehog man.

146
00:06:03,920 --> 00:06:05,560
Yeah, yeah, yeah.

147
00:06:05,560 --> 00:06:09,400
Because they might they might lead me to my doom or they might rescue me.

148
00:06:09,400 --> 00:06:12,160
And I did not need rescuing of any kind in that moment.

149
00:06:12,160 --> 00:06:16,200
So there's a good chance that they were like, let's fuck this guy up.

150
00:06:16,200 --> 00:06:17,200
All right.

151
00:06:17,200 --> 00:06:20,600
Well, since you know so much, I guess since you know, you probably know more about the

152
00:06:20,600 --> 00:06:24,320
puck, which is and I do maybe if anything I say in this episode, if it's wrong or if

153
00:06:24,320 --> 00:06:29,880
you have more context to it, feel free to jump right in because I probably I did leave

154
00:06:29,880 --> 00:06:32,840
a lot of things out, but that's just for sake of story wise.

155
00:06:32,840 --> 00:06:33,840
But yeah.

156
00:06:33,840 --> 00:06:36,960
All right, Kevin, you're you're ready to dive into the legend and lore that is the puck

157
00:06:36,960 --> 00:06:37,960
wudgy.

158
00:06:37,960 --> 00:06:38,960
Let's do it, man.

159
00:06:38,960 --> 00:06:39,960
All right.

160
00:06:39,960 --> 00:06:43,960
So the puck wudgy, which loosely translates to, quote, little wild man of the woods that

161
00:06:43,960 --> 00:06:48,680
vanishes, which just fucking rolls off the tongue of English, are creatures from Native

162
00:06:48,680 --> 00:06:54,440
American folklore, specifically the Wampanoag tribe of Massachusetts in southern New England

163
00:06:54,440 --> 00:06:58,480
and the Algonquin tribes of the Great Lake regions, along with a couple others along

164
00:06:58,480 --> 00:07:00,680
the eastern side of the United States.

165
00:07:00,680 --> 00:07:04,420
They're described as being anywhere between knee height to three feet tall.

166
00:07:04,420 --> 00:07:10,320
And they look more or less like humans, but with elongated features, long ears, long nose,

167
00:07:10,320 --> 00:07:14,560
kind of troll like they got like a pale gray complexion and are usually depicted as having

168
00:07:14,560 --> 00:07:17,560
giant porcupine quills coming out of their back.

169
00:07:17,560 --> 00:07:21,840
They kind of give me based off like artists descriptions of them, like Icelandic troll

170
00:07:21,840 --> 00:07:27,960
vibes, but with like half half troll, half like head jog kind of thing going on.

171
00:07:27,960 --> 00:07:28,960
I don't know.

172
00:07:28,960 --> 00:07:30,840
That's what I took away from it.

173
00:07:30,840 --> 00:07:34,800
The puck wudgy is considered one of the oldest mythical creatures in North America.

174
00:07:34,800 --> 00:07:39,000
And while they do have a reputation of being like nasty little tricksters that will either

175
00:07:39,000 --> 00:07:43,280
prank you or just straight up murder you for fun, they do kind of have like a complicated

176
00:07:43,280 --> 00:07:46,760
and if you ask me, it kind of like a sad pass to them.

177
00:07:46,760 --> 00:07:52,000
So according to an article on spooky south coast dot com, that is a re-upload of an article

178
00:07:52,000 --> 00:07:57,360
from 2005 on Massachusetts paranormal crossroads, which is a site that no longer exists.

179
00:07:57,360 --> 00:08:01,640
Apparently the puck wudgy first appeared in the oral traditions of the Wampanoag peoples

180
00:08:01,640 --> 00:08:03,400
living in Cape Cod.

181
00:08:03,400 --> 00:08:07,400
Now according to legend, the Wampanoag Wampanoag people worshiped.

182
00:08:07,400 --> 00:08:12,920
I don't know how to pronounce this, but I think it's Moshop.

183
00:08:12,920 --> 00:08:18,540
Moshop was a giant that they believe created Cape Cod and the people there just fucking

184
00:08:18,540 --> 00:08:19,600
love this guy.

185
00:08:19,600 --> 00:08:20,600
Like they could not get it.

186
00:08:20,600 --> 00:08:25,460
Like it's like how people feel about like Keanu Reeves, like just could do no wrong.

187
00:08:25,460 --> 00:08:28,200
It's an amazing giant God.

188
00:08:28,200 --> 00:08:32,320
Well the puck wudgies who for the longest time got along with the humans and coexisted

189
00:08:32,320 --> 00:08:36,920
with them, grew jealous of the humans love and devotion to Moshop.

190
00:08:36,920 --> 00:08:41,680
They tried to take some of that love and devotion, like direct it their way by trying to help

191
00:08:41,680 --> 00:08:46,320
the Wampanoag, but everything they did seem to backfire, which leads me to believe that

192
00:08:46,320 --> 00:08:49,880
the way they tried to help with things is like the same way that like a small child

193
00:08:49,880 --> 00:08:51,540
tries to help you with things.

194
00:08:51,540 --> 00:08:57,120
Like they usually end up breaking something or like they make a bigger mess than was originally

195
00:08:57,120 --> 00:08:58,120
there.

196
00:08:58,120 --> 00:08:59,920
I'm sure that's something you can relate to.

197
00:08:59,920 --> 00:09:00,920
Oh yeah.

198
00:09:00,920 --> 00:09:01,920
Oh yeah.

199
00:09:01,920 --> 00:09:03,920
For sure.

200
00:09:03,920 --> 00:09:09,480
Well after all their failed efforts to not be ignored went ignored.

201
00:09:09,480 --> 00:09:12,040
The puck wudgies were like, all right, fuck this.

202
00:09:12,040 --> 00:09:16,240
And they just decided to start being just mischievous on purpose, just annoying the

203
00:09:16,240 --> 00:09:18,520
hell out of the natives of Cape Cod.

204
00:09:18,520 --> 00:09:21,760
Finally the Wampanoag were like, all right, enough is enough.

205
00:09:21,760 --> 00:09:22,760
These little shits are annoying.

206
00:09:22,760 --> 00:09:24,580
So we got to get them out of here.

207
00:09:24,580 --> 00:09:28,800
So they went to Quant, who was the wife of Moshop the giant, to ask if she could get

208
00:09:28,800 --> 00:09:30,960
her husband to do something about them.

209
00:09:30,960 --> 00:09:31,960
And Moshop obliged.

210
00:09:31,960 --> 00:09:33,960
Are you following me so far?

211
00:09:33,960 --> 00:09:34,960
Oh yeah.

212
00:09:34,960 --> 00:09:35,960
Following you.

213
00:09:35,960 --> 00:09:36,960
Okay.

214
00:09:36,960 --> 00:09:38,120
I get it.

215
00:09:38,120 --> 00:09:44,360
Moshop, Moshop went around and rounded up as many of the puck wudgies as he could and

216
00:09:44,360 --> 00:09:48,720
then just shook the ever living hell out of them until they were nice and confused.

217
00:09:48,720 --> 00:09:53,400
And then just started hocking them, like throwing them as far as he could all across New England.

218
00:09:53,400 --> 00:09:54,400
What?

219
00:09:54,400 --> 00:09:55,400
Some died.

220
00:09:55,400 --> 00:09:56,400
All right.

221
00:09:56,400 --> 00:09:57,400
I didn't know that.

222
00:09:57,400 --> 00:10:01,400
I'd be like this part of the, of their history.

223
00:10:01,400 --> 00:10:02,920
I had no, I have no idea.

224
00:10:02,920 --> 00:10:04,200
This is crazy.

225
00:10:04,200 --> 00:10:05,200
Yeah.

226
00:10:05,200 --> 00:10:06,200
So Moshop was a giant.

227
00:10:06,200 --> 00:10:07,200
He was a giant God.

228
00:10:07,200 --> 00:10:09,400
He was like a creator God.

229
00:10:09,400 --> 00:10:12,320
And when they asked for help, he was like, sure, fuck it.

230
00:10:12,320 --> 00:10:15,680
And just grabbed them and shook them like a soda can.

231
00:10:15,680 --> 00:10:20,080
And then just started fucking tossing them around all of New England.

232
00:10:20,080 --> 00:10:24,920
Just like, like basically Hail Mary passing them.

233
00:10:24,920 --> 00:10:28,680
Now, obviously some died, but others landed safely.

234
00:10:28,680 --> 00:10:33,720
And once they regain their senses and unbeknownst to Moshop and the people of Cape Cod, they

235
00:10:33,720 --> 00:10:37,480
started like slowly making their way back to Massachusetts.

236
00:10:37,480 --> 00:10:42,460
Now Moshop thought that he accomplished the task that his wife had asked of him to do.

237
00:10:42,460 --> 00:10:45,560
So he decided, you know, it's time for me to go on a little vacation.

238
00:10:45,560 --> 00:10:46,560
I did my work.

239
00:10:46,560 --> 00:10:50,960
I'm just going to kind of fuck off for a while to where I don't know.

240
00:10:50,960 --> 00:10:56,480
But in his absence, the Pukwudgies made their return and just started causing absolute fucking

241
00:10:56,480 --> 00:10:57,860
chaos.

242
00:10:57,860 --> 00:11:01,360
Not like the little harm, like harmless pranks they were doing before.

243
00:11:01,360 --> 00:11:03,520
They decided that they were like out for blood.

244
00:11:03,520 --> 00:11:08,280
They started kidnapping children, burning down entire villages and even luring people

245
00:11:08,280 --> 00:11:12,640
deep into the woods and just straight up murdering them.

246
00:11:12,640 --> 00:11:19,200
Now once again, the Wampanoags went to quant to ask for Moshop's help, but this time around

247
00:11:19,200 --> 00:11:21,720
it seemed like he just didn't want to be bothered to do it.

248
00:11:21,720 --> 00:11:24,960
So he sent his five sons to go take care of the problem.

249
00:11:24,960 --> 00:11:28,860
But the Pukwudgies were like, they're pretty, they're pretty crafty little guys.

250
00:11:28,860 --> 00:11:33,160
They lured the five sons into the woods and just like they did with the other people,

251
00:11:33,160 --> 00:11:35,960
shot them to death with poison arrows.

252
00:11:35,960 --> 00:11:41,880
Now this obviously upset Moshop and his wife quant and they just started fucking smashing

253
00:11:41,880 --> 00:11:43,280
any Pukwudgie they saw.

254
00:11:43,280 --> 00:11:49,560
And I mean like literally crushing them like just under foot.

255
00:11:49,560 --> 00:11:54,160
And but once again, the Pukwudgie scattered all across New England to escape the wrath

256
00:11:54,160 --> 00:11:56,720
of the two literal giant gods.

257
00:11:56,720 --> 00:12:01,640
But they regrouped and made their way back and had one last showdown.

258
00:12:01,640 --> 00:12:05,980
They tricked Moshop into the waters of Cape Cod and just unleashed their magic arrows

259
00:12:05,980 --> 00:12:08,520
upon him and then killing him.

260
00:12:08,520 --> 00:12:14,840
And after this, Moshop disappears from Wampanoag's mythology, but the Pukwudgies remained.

261
00:12:14,840 --> 00:12:17,600
And according to some accounts are still around and kicking today.

262
00:12:17,600 --> 00:12:22,240
Many people in the areas where these Native American people lived and still live report

263
00:12:22,240 --> 00:12:24,340
seeing them to this day.

264
00:12:24,340 --> 00:12:28,680
But it said that if you do encounter one, it's best to steer clear pretty much for like

265
00:12:28,680 --> 00:12:33,000
all the reasons that I stated above.

266
00:12:33,000 --> 00:12:34,480
So where are we at?

267
00:12:34,480 --> 00:12:40,880
So also some of the things that they can do is fucking like one of the things that they

268
00:12:40,880 --> 00:12:44,560
can do is they can appear and disappear at will.

269
00:12:44,560 --> 00:12:50,440
You are a mind reader because so now we know what they look like, how they became little

270
00:12:50,440 --> 00:12:52,360
scamps that they are now known to be.

271
00:12:52,360 --> 00:12:57,360
You already dive into just what the abilities they have is some of the quote unquote pranks

272
00:12:57,360 --> 00:12:58,960
they like to pull.

273
00:12:58,960 --> 00:12:59,960
Yes, yes.

274
00:12:59,960 --> 00:13:02,560
We got some general facts about these little guys, too.

275
00:13:02,560 --> 00:13:03,560
All right.

276
00:13:03,560 --> 00:13:04,560
Sorry.

277
00:13:04,560 --> 00:13:06,000
I jumped the gun there for you.

278
00:13:06,000 --> 00:13:08,360
No, no, no, Kevin, please.

279
00:13:08,360 --> 00:13:11,200
It's a collaborative effort.

280
00:13:11,200 --> 00:13:13,160
OK.

281
00:13:13,160 --> 00:13:17,680
So as far as the abilities these guys have, because they are magical beings, which I don't

282
00:13:17,680 --> 00:13:20,360
know if I even mentioned that up top or not.

283
00:13:20,360 --> 00:13:25,600
But now, you know, we have but like it's like you said, they do have the ability to disappear

284
00:13:25,600 --> 00:13:27,800
and reappear at will.

285
00:13:27,800 --> 00:13:33,080
And I don't know if it's like an invisibility cloak type thing like the Predator or if it's

286
00:13:33,080 --> 00:13:35,520
more like a teleportation thing.

287
00:13:35,520 --> 00:13:36,520
Like I don't know.

288
00:13:36,520 --> 00:13:37,520
Like I don't know how it works.

289
00:13:37,520 --> 00:13:39,240
I don't think it's ever is magic.

290
00:13:39,240 --> 00:13:40,840
You can't explain magic.

291
00:13:40,840 --> 00:13:46,400
Well, I think I think if if I had to guess on either or I think it would be more like

292
00:13:46,400 --> 00:13:52,840
the Predator kind of thing, like a glimmer man situation because they're still there

293
00:13:52,840 --> 00:13:57,960
and because they can do stuff, supposedly there's like some encounters or whatever where there's

294
00:13:57,960 --> 00:14:00,960
shit happening, like falling off shelves or whatever.

295
00:14:00,960 --> 00:14:04,200
I mean, you can't see what's what's doing it.

296
00:14:04,200 --> 00:14:08,600
And then like there's accounts of like it just appearing and then disappearing and stuff

297
00:14:08,600 --> 00:14:09,600
like that.

298
00:14:09,600 --> 00:14:11,960
So so it is more like a like a cloaking thing.

299
00:14:11,960 --> 00:14:13,800
That's if I had to if I had to pick one.

300
00:14:13,800 --> 00:14:15,960
Yeah, if I had to make it would be like a cloak.

301
00:14:15,960 --> 00:14:16,960
Yeah.

302
00:14:16,960 --> 00:14:20,300
But I think that would also give the appearance of teleportation.

303
00:14:20,300 --> 00:14:23,600
If you disappear in one area and then pop up in another, I don't know how fast they

304
00:14:23,600 --> 00:14:24,600
are.

305
00:14:24,600 --> 00:14:28,160
Like I'm sure it would be like an instantaneous thing like the USS Philadelphia where it popped

306
00:14:28,160 --> 00:14:30,040
in and out of existence.

307
00:14:30,040 --> 00:14:36,440
But it's also said that they have the ability to shape shift into small animals or even

308
00:14:36,440 --> 00:14:41,760
animals that will fucking straight up murder you like cougars, things like that.

309
00:14:41,760 --> 00:14:44,860
They can create, manipulate and shape fire.

310
00:14:44,860 --> 00:14:48,880
And they also have the ability to control what are known as Taipei Wonkas, which are

311
00:14:48,880 --> 00:14:52,240
believed to be the souls of Native Americans that they have killed in the past, similar

312
00:14:52,240 --> 00:14:56,000
to like orbs or will of the wisps if you're European.

313
00:14:56,000 --> 00:15:00,600
And they use those glowing lights to lure more victims into the woods to either kidnap

314
00:15:00,600 --> 00:15:03,120
or again, just straight up fucking mark them.

315
00:15:03,120 --> 00:15:04,720
And I didn't know this part.

316
00:15:04,720 --> 00:15:06,080
Is this something you were familiar with?

317
00:15:06,080 --> 00:15:07,920
No, no, I'm not familiar with that.

318
00:15:07,920 --> 00:15:10,760
So I guess I don't know as much as I thought I did, man.

319
00:15:10,760 --> 00:15:11,760
Hell yeah.

320
00:15:11,760 --> 00:15:12,760
Well, look at that.

321
00:15:12,760 --> 00:15:13,760
We're both learning.

322
00:15:13,760 --> 00:15:17,040
This is a learning learning experience for both.

323
00:15:17,040 --> 00:15:19,720
Because I didn't know half the shit until I started looking into it.

324
00:15:19,720 --> 00:15:23,520
I didn't know like the backstory involved them getting shaken up and thrown into all

325
00:15:23,520 --> 00:15:24,520
of New England.

326
00:15:24,520 --> 00:15:25,520
That's wild.

327
00:15:25,520 --> 00:15:26,520
Me neither.

328
00:15:26,520 --> 00:15:27,520
Me neither.

329
00:15:27,520 --> 00:15:31,440
That's wild to me.

330
00:15:31,440 --> 00:15:36,800
So you said like in Indiana, Massachusetts and where else?

331
00:15:36,800 --> 00:15:41,520
Parts of Canada, like in like the Great Lakes region, Indiana, Massachusetts.

332
00:15:41,520 --> 00:15:42,520
And I want to say Delaware.

333
00:15:42,520 --> 00:15:46,480
But that could have Delaware could have been one of the tribes because I know there's a

334
00:15:46,480 --> 00:15:48,080
Native American tribe called Delaware.

335
00:15:48,080 --> 00:15:55,000
Honestly, I know I said it 12 minutes ago, but I already forgot.

336
00:15:55,000 --> 00:16:03,320
Because I was just thinking because frickin Phil, he was doing an investigation in Tennessee

337
00:16:03,320 --> 00:16:07,400
somewhere I think like near Knoxville or whatever.

338
00:16:07,400 --> 00:16:12,440
And he kept getting in his like spirit box and his like a little word bank, which I don't

339
00:16:12,440 --> 00:16:16,360
know how much stake you want to put into like the word banks like that because they're just

340
00:16:16,360 --> 00:16:17,360
apps.

341
00:16:17,360 --> 00:16:18,360
You know what I mean?

342
00:16:18,360 --> 00:16:20,240
The word bank to me is less.

343
00:16:20,240 --> 00:16:26,000
I feel like it's less credible, but it does create some pretty funny results if you get

344
00:16:26,000 --> 00:16:27,400
the right words.

345
00:16:27,400 --> 00:16:28,400
Yeah.

346
00:16:28,400 --> 00:16:32,600
And he got puck wudgy a few times in Tennessee.

347
00:16:32,600 --> 00:16:33,600
Really?

348
00:16:33,600 --> 00:16:34,600
Yeah.

349
00:16:34,600 --> 00:16:39,840
Like both on the spirit box because the spirit box, I feel I would I would vest more like

350
00:16:39,840 --> 00:16:43,480
credit to the spirit box than I would the word banks and stuff.

351
00:16:43,480 --> 00:16:44,480
I agree.

352
00:16:44,480 --> 00:16:50,760
But yeah, I mean, when the word bank frickin gives you an answer to a question that you

353
00:16:50,760 --> 00:16:55,400
just asked, that's that's fucking creepy.

354
00:16:55,400 --> 00:16:58,600
But nine times out of 10, you're getting just like a random word.

355
00:16:58,600 --> 00:16:59,600
I feel like.

356
00:16:59,600 --> 00:17:00,600
Yeah.

357
00:17:00,600 --> 00:17:05,120
But sometimes they do create some pretty funny.

358
00:17:05,120 --> 00:17:08,600
I wouldn't call it evidence, but pretty funny responses to questions.

359
00:17:08,600 --> 00:17:13,080
And that's why I fuck with it for that reason alone, not as like any tangible proof of anything,

360
00:17:13,080 --> 00:17:14,640
but God damn.

361
00:17:14,640 --> 00:17:19,840
But Tennessee, I don't that wasn't in that Tennessee is kind of on the eastern side of

362
00:17:19,840 --> 00:17:20,840
the United States.

363
00:17:20,840 --> 00:17:27,680
So I mean, I don't know the geographical like the like the real maps of where these tribes

364
00:17:27,680 --> 00:17:28,680
were.

365
00:17:28,680 --> 00:17:31,120
But I mean, who's to say probably more than likely it could be.

366
00:17:31,120 --> 00:17:32,120
Yeah.

367
00:17:32,120 --> 00:17:33,280
I mean, they travel all the time.

368
00:17:33,280 --> 00:17:41,960
They just were more like, I guess, when shit was being colonized or whatever, they decided

369
00:17:41,960 --> 00:17:43,880
to stay more put, you know.

370
00:17:43,880 --> 00:17:49,640
Well, if I remember from my Mothman series, I know that the Delaware was part of the tribe

371
00:17:49,640 --> 00:17:50,640
of chief.

372
00:17:50,640 --> 00:17:57,520
That was part of the coalition that Chief Cornstock was using to fight against.

373
00:17:57,520 --> 00:18:03,320
So West Virginia, Tennessee, they're kind of vaguely in the same area, I guess.

374
00:18:03,320 --> 00:18:04,320
So who knows?

375
00:18:04,320 --> 00:18:05,320
All right.

376
00:18:05,320 --> 00:18:08,320
But back to Pukwudgies.

377
00:18:08,320 --> 00:18:13,080
They're also apparently extremely proficient at archery and they use magic or poisoned

378
00:18:13,080 --> 00:18:14,320
arrows.

379
00:18:14,320 --> 00:18:16,600
They're also covered in quills so they can fuck you up that way.

380
00:18:16,600 --> 00:18:19,880
I read someplace that they could also curl up into a ball kind of like a hedgehog and

381
00:18:19,880 --> 00:18:24,840
just kind of roll at you, I guess, which was kind of I guess that would fuck you up.

382
00:18:24,840 --> 00:18:27,000
Yeah, I would be I would fucking run.

383
00:18:27,000 --> 00:18:30,080
I would absolutely see a ball barreling at me.

384
00:18:30,080 --> 00:18:31,720
I don't care what it is.

385
00:18:31,720 --> 00:18:34,600
Like I would run and torch the fucking woods.

386
00:18:34,600 --> 00:18:36,360
I just burned it all down.

387
00:18:36,360 --> 00:18:38,360
Everything.

388
00:18:38,360 --> 00:18:40,920
I don't know how true I mean, again, I don't know how true any of this is.

389
00:18:40,920 --> 00:18:45,120
And again, some of these sources I used, you've done research, you know, that some of these

390
00:18:45,120 --> 00:18:48,120
sites are a little.

391
00:18:48,120 --> 00:18:49,120
Yeah.

392
00:18:49,120 --> 00:18:50,120
City from 2001.

393
00:18:50,120 --> 00:18:51,120
Yeah, yeah.

394
00:18:51,120 --> 00:18:58,680
I mean, I recently did research on the Goatman and there's the same exact story for like

395
00:18:58,680 --> 00:19:00,480
the Maryland Goatman.

396
00:19:00,480 --> 00:19:04,320
They're attributing to a Goatman in frickin Kentucky.

397
00:19:04,320 --> 00:19:05,760
And I'm like, no, no, no, no.

398
00:19:05,760 --> 00:19:08,040
The Kentucky Goatman is the public monster.

399
00:19:08,040 --> 00:19:11,840
Like you can't fuck and sit here and give the same exact story for the Maryland Goatman

400
00:19:11,840 --> 00:19:12,840
to the fucking.

401
00:19:12,840 --> 00:19:13,840
I was like, this is wrong.

402
00:19:13,840 --> 00:19:14,840
This is incorrect.

403
00:19:14,840 --> 00:19:15,840
Why?

404
00:19:15,840 --> 00:19:16,840
Who the fuck published this article?

405
00:19:16,840 --> 00:19:17,840
Yeah.

406
00:19:17,840 --> 00:19:19,600
So some of these sites, they're a little dubious.

407
00:19:19,600 --> 00:19:26,560
I don't know if all of this is correct, but apparently the Pukwudgies, they also are usually

408
00:19:26,560 --> 00:19:28,620
seen with a knife and spear.

409
00:19:28,620 --> 00:19:33,160
So they're basically at this point in my head, like little ninjas that can turn invisible

410
00:19:33,160 --> 00:19:36,880
and then also control the dead, which is fucking terrifying.

411
00:19:36,880 --> 00:19:42,300
And add in the fact that you can roll into a ball and come at you with their spiky backs.

412
00:19:42,300 --> 00:19:43,300
It's all just a nightmare.

413
00:19:43,300 --> 00:19:47,740
I also read somewhere that they can cause you to hallucinate and the hallucinations

414
00:19:47,740 --> 00:19:52,740
can become so realistic that they can actually produce physical effects on their victims.

415
00:19:52,740 --> 00:19:54,320
So it's not great.

416
00:19:54,320 --> 00:19:56,440
It's like, it's all bad.

417
00:19:56,440 --> 00:19:59,760
Without the weapons, it kind of reminds me of that horror movie Critters.

418
00:19:59,760 --> 00:20:00,760
Yeah.

419
00:20:00,760 --> 00:20:01,760
Yes.

420
00:20:01,760 --> 00:20:02,760
Critters too.

421
00:20:02,760 --> 00:20:03,760
Yeah.

422
00:20:03,760 --> 00:20:07,400
I was scared of that when I was a kid, man.

423
00:20:07,400 --> 00:20:09,200
That movie scared me.

424
00:20:09,200 --> 00:20:10,800
It's not, yeah, it's not good.

425
00:20:10,800 --> 00:20:15,760
The like, it's like a nightmare Sonic the Hedgehog.

426
00:20:15,760 --> 00:20:21,840
But like the reason, but the reason why I said like their backstory is complicated and

427
00:20:21,840 --> 00:20:25,320
it's sad to me is like, they just wanted to be accepted.

428
00:20:25,320 --> 00:20:26,320
You know what I mean?

429
00:20:26,320 --> 00:20:29,080
And then the natives were just like, nah, dude, fuck you guys.

430
00:20:29,080 --> 00:20:30,360
And then they're like, no, but let us help.

431
00:20:30,360 --> 00:20:36,480
And then they're like, they weren't villains originally, but we turned them into villains.

432
00:20:36,480 --> 00:20:37,480
Like, it's so sad.

433
00:20:37,480 --> 00:20:41,360
Like someone just used to be nice to these guys pretty much is what's going on.

434
00:20:41,360 --> 00:20:42,360
Yeah.

435
00:20:42,360 --> 00:20:43,360
Absolutely.

436
00:20:43,360 --> 00:20:44,360
Absolutely.

437
00:20:44,360 --> 00:20:47,360
That's all everybody, anybody really wants is they just want a little love.

438
00:20:47,360 --> 00:20:48,360
Yeah.

439
00:20:48,360 --> 00:20:49,360
And especially they're just little guys.

440
00:20:49,360 --> 00:20:50,360
They're just little guys.

441
00:20:50,360 --> 00:20:53,200
They're just trying to hang out.

442
00:20:53,200 --> 00:20:54,200
You know what I mean?

443
00:20:54,200 --> 00:20:57,400
Like, I don't know, but whatever.

444
00:20:57,400 --> 00:21:00,680
Now Kevin, you want to get in some of the quote unquote pranks they pull?

445
00:21:00,680 --> 00:21:01,680
Oh my God.

446
00:21:01,680 --> 00:21:02,680
Yes.

447
00:21:02,680 --> 00:21:03,680
Let's hear them.

448
00:21:03,680 --> 00:21:04,680
Okay.

449
00:21:04,680 --> 00:21:07,640
Now I said quote unquote pranks and again, they're in heavy quotes because just like

450
00:21:07,640 --> 00:21:12,540
in the spring heel jack episode, they keep using the word pranks, but really what they

451
00:21:12,540 --> 00:21:18,360
mean is like cruel and violent encounters that may or may not lead to you dying.

452
00:21:18,360 --> 00:21:23,880
I just want to say though, real quick on the spring heel jack episode, cause I listened

453
00:21:23,880 --> 00:21:24,880
to it.

454
00:21:24,880 --> 00:21:29,120
It's fucking hilarious because when you described him and then you like made this voice up for

455
00:21:29,120 --> 00:21:30,120
him, I was like, yeah, that's exact.

456
00:21:30,120 --> 00:21:33,960
That's like the exact voice I would give him to.

457
00:21:33,960 --> 00:21:38,000
It's a messy, like it's old timey villain.

458
00:21:38,000 --> 00:21:42,840
He looks like the kind of dude that would tie a damsel up and put her on a trade track.

459
00:21:42,840 --> 00:21:47,840
Like it's that villain voice.

460
00:21:47,840 --> 00:21:53,000
It's a hundred percent that voice.

461
00:21:53,000 --> 00:21:58,080
They kept using the term prankster for him, but he was a fucking sexual predator and a

462
00:21:58,080 --> 00:21:59,840
violent, like, you know what I mean?

463
00:21:59,840 --> 00:22:01,880
Like it wasn't good.

464
00:22:01,880 --> 00:22:02,880
No.

465
00:22:02,880 --> 00:22:04,840
Well, same thing with the puck wedgie.

466
00:22:04,840 --> 00:22:09,200
Some of their quote unquote pranks range from pretty harmless to just full on murderous,

467
00:22:09,200 --> 00:22:11,960
depending on what tribes lore you're going off of.

468
00:22:11,960 --> 00:22:15,760
In much of the great lakes tribes lore, the puck wedgie is considered mischievous, but

469
00:22:15,760 --> 00:22:18,000
generally good natured in spirit.

470
00:22:18,000 --> 00:22:23,240
I couldn't find any examples of these harmless pranks readily available because no one, no

471
00:22:23,240 --> 00:22:27,520
one really wants to talk about the harmless pranks, but I'm going to assume that it's

472
00:22:27,520 --> 00:22:31,880
like tying your shoelaces together, stealing food, that kind of knocking shit off your

473
00:22:31,880 --> 00:22:32,960
shelves when they're invisible.

474
00:22:32,960 --> 00:22:37,080
Like you said, like that kind of stuff in most other tribes and legends though, the

475
00:22:37,080 --> 00:22:42,160
puck wedgie is not only dangerous if you treat him poorly, disrespect him or his woods, or

476
00:22:42,160 --> 00:22:43,600
if you just slightly annoy him.

477
00:22:43,600 --> 00:22:48,040
They also believe that they are just like straight up dangerous no matter what you do

478
00:22:48,040 --> 00:22:51,240
and they can't be trusted because apparently one thing they do is they'll like try and

479
00:22:51,240 --> 00:22:55,280
like gain your trust and then help you with something or you help them with something

480
00:22:55,280 --> 00:22:56,560
and then they'll just fucking kill you.

481
00:22:56,560 --> 00:22:58,520
So you can trust them.

482
00:22:58,520 --> 00:23:02,300
And if you do happen to accidentally annoy one, it said that it will stalk you and prank

483
00:23:02,300 --> 00:23:05,920
you in ways like using sand to blind you.

484
00:23:05,920 --> 00:23:07,300
It'll stalk you.

485
00:23:07,300 --> 00:23:09,000
It'll erase your memories.

486
00:23:09,000 --> 00:23:11,400
It'll lure you off of a cliff.

487
00:23:11,400 --> 00:23:16,240
It'll steal your baby or just persuade you to commit suicide.

488
00:23:16,240 --> 00:23:18,920
So you know, just just prankster shit.

489
00:23:18,920 --> 00:23:21,480
Just tricks, just stuff.

490
00:23:21,480 --> 00:23:25,520
What the weird thing is a lot of these like creatures and stuff, they want your children

491
00:23:25,520 --> 00:23:27,040
and it's fucking weird.

492
00:23:27,040 --> 00:23:32,700
Like and then like also because they also kind of do a little bit resemble them.

493
00:23:32,700 --> 00:23:35,160
But it reminds me of rumple still skin.

494
00:23:35,160 --> 00:23:37,000
You know, I was just thinking about this the other day.

495
00:23:37,000 --> 00:23:38,000
Weird.

496
00:23:38,000 --> 00:23:41,360
Oddly enough, I was like, I was like, I don't hear anything about rumple still skin anymore.

497
00:23:41,360 --> 00:23:46,360
I used to hear that frickin that little story all the time when I was a kid.

498
00:23:46,360 --> 00:23:50,720
But yeah, I think it's really weird that like everything wants your children.

499
00:23:50,720 --> 00:23:55,800
Well, we just did a episode on like fairies of Ireland.

500
00:23:55,800 --> 00:23:58,360
And this is giving me straight up like leprechaun.

501
00:23:58,360 --> 00:24:01,320
It's like leprechaun vibes like leprechauns will do the same thing.

502
00:24:01,320 --> 00:24:03,920
Like yeah, they'll do little pranks or whatever.

503
00:24:03,920 --> 00:24:08,040
But if you really annoy them, they one of the things is they will steal your fucking

504
00:24:08,040 --> 00:24:12,760
baby and they'll like they'll either keep it or exchange it with a changeling, which

505
00:24:12,760 --> 00:24:16,000
is even worse because that happened to the original baby.

506
00:24:16,000 --> 00:24:17,960
And what is that changing going to do once it grows up?

507
00:24:17,960 --> 00:24:20,200
Is it just going to be your baby this entire time?

508
00:24:20,200 --> 00:24:21,200
Who knows?

509
00:24:21,200 --> 00:24:26,960
It's all bad, but it is giving it is giving very like leprechaun vibes.

510
00:24:26,960 --> 00:24:30,200
Like it's almost like it is kind of fairy esque in a way.

511
00:24:30,200 --> 00:24:31,200
Yeah.

512
00:24:31,200 --> 00:24:34,560
But I mean, I'm not going to say there's no way that the Native Americans would have known

513
00:24:34,560 --> 00:24:35,560
about the Irish Faye.

514
00:24:35,560 --> 00:24:36,560
You know what I mean?

515
00:24:36,560 --> 00:24:40,000
So it is kind of cool that they have like kind of a similar thing.

516
00:24:40,000 --> 00:24:41,000
Yeah.

517
00:24:41,000 --> 00:24:42,680
But but anywho, there you have it.

518
00:24:42,680 --> 00:24:46,440
The Pukwudgies has officially been covered.

519
00:24:46,440 --> 00:24:51,400
But one one thing I do have for you is I said I was going to give you fun facts, fun facts

520
00:24:51,400 --> 00:24:52,400
about the Pukwudgies.

521
00:24:52,400 --> 00:24:54,240
And I only got one.

522
00:24:54,240 --> 00:25:00,040
And that's that even though the Pukwudgies are horribly looking little goblin monsters,

523
00:25:00,040 --> 00:25:03,160
it said that they have a sweet and floral scent to them.

524
00:25:03,160 --> 00:25:04,160
So that's nice.

525
00:25:04,160 --> 00:25:05,160
You know, you can.

526
00:25:05,160 --> 00:25:09,320
Yeah, you can bask in the scent of lilacs and lavender as you're being blinded by pocket

527
00:25:09,320 --> 00:25:13,240
sand and stabbed over and over again by a three foot tall demon hobbit.

528
00:25:13,240 --> 00:25:16,400
So yeah, but there you have it.

529
00:25:16,400 --> 00:25:25,240
That is kind of all the information you're ever going to find about the Pukwudgie.

530
00:25:25,240 --> 00:25:26,240
What are your thoughts right now?

531
00:25:26,240 --> 00:25:27,240
What do you think?

532
00:25:27,240 --> 00:25:28,240
Anything you want to discuss?

533
00:25:28,240 --> 00:25:31,880
I think you want to recover that we went through?

534
00:25:31,880 --> 00:25:32,880
Not really.

535
00:25:32,880 --> 00:25:37,920
I mean, to be honest, like a little bit of the history of the Wabanog people, like the

536
00:25:37,920 --> 00:25:43,400
King Philip's War, which wasn't like a big war or anything, but they ended up retreating

537
00:25:43,400 --> 00:25:45,080
from Cape Cod.

538
00:25:45,080 --> 00:25:50,080
And then they went into the swamp area where the Bridgewater Triangle is.

539
00:25:50,080 --> 00:25:54,280
I know how somebody who's a stickler about that word.

540
00:25:54,280 --> 00:25:59,440
But the Huckamuck Swamp, they like retreated to the swamp.

541
00:25:59,440 --> 00:26:04,280
And then the European colonists were like, fuck this, I ain't walking through here.

542
00:26:04,280 --> 00:26:05,280
Fuck them.

543
00:26:05,280 --> 00:26:06,280
They can have this.

544
00:26:06,280 --> 00:26:09,200
And then they deem that whole area devilish.

545
00:26:09,200 --> 00:26:10,200
Don't go in there.

546
00:26:10,200 --> 00:26:13,080
That's where the devil is, stuff like that.

547
00:26:13,080 --> 00:26:14,080
But other than that.

548
00:26:14,080 --> 00:26:16,960
All the shit going on inside that fucking Bridgewater Triangle.

549
00:26:16,960 --> 00:26:17,960
Yeah.

550
00:26:17,960 --> 00:26:21,520
And there's a lot of Pukwudgie sightings too around those areas.

551
00:26:21,520 --> 00:26:27,520
I was just saying on the paranormal investigation that I did out there in the swamp, we got

552
00:26:27,520 --> 00:26:30,760
Pukwudgie shit.

553
00:26:30,760 --> 00:26:32,480
And I'm part native too.

554
00:26:32,480 --> 00:26:39,400
So they said my fucking tribe, the tribe that I'm descendant of on the spirit box, which

555
00:26:39,400 --> 00:26:40,400
was fucking weird.

556
00:26:40,400 --> 00:26:46,120
They said my name, the tribe and podcast within like 10 minutes.

557
00:26:46,120 --> 00:26:48,480
And I was like, what the fuck is happening?

558
00:26:48,480 --> 00:26:49,480
I would have fucking bailed.

559
00:26:49,480 --> 00:26:50,480
I would have bailed so hard.

560
00:26:50,480 --> 00:26:52,920
I'd like to think that in a such...

561
00:26:52,920 --> 00:26:54,960
Because I do want to go on paranormal investigations.

562
00:26:54,960 --> 00:26:59,120
I do want to go like... because right now, since I'm in Philly now, I live near the Pine

563
00:26:59,120 --> 00:27:00,120
Barrens.

564
00:27:00,120 --> 00:27:01,120
I do want to go up there.

565
00:27:01,120 --> 00:27:02,360
I want to do the Pine Barrens too.

566
00:27:02,360 --> 00:27:04,080
Do shit like that.

567
00:27:04,080 --> 00:27:09,400
But I just know that I'll go in tough, but as soon as something fucked up happens, I

568
00:27:09,400 --> 00:27:11,760
can feel it in my bones that I will not hold...

569
00:27:11,760 --> 00:27:17,320
I'll just be like, all right, well, I'm going back to camp where there's a fire and beer.

570
00:27:17,320 --> 00:27:19,880
I'm not here anymore.

571
00:27:19,880 --> 00:27:20,880
That's...

572
00:27:20,880 --> 00:27:21,880
Oh man.

573
00:27:21,880 --> 00:27:25,960
But speaking of like when the colonists come...

574
00:27:25,960 --> 00:27:30,160
So I didn't include this in the story because it was so much.

575
00:27:30,160 --> 00:27:35,760
They were kind of saying about how when the Pukwudgies defeated the giant god, when he

576
00:27:35,760 --> 00:27:41,640
disappeared from the mythology of the Wampanoag, is that everything that happens in the origin

577
00:27:41,640 --> 00:27:48,040
stories of the Pukwudgies is that it correlated with the white man coming to America and how

578
00:27:48,040 --> 00:27:55,000
all the different times the Pukwudgies won certain battles against the sun or the god,

579
00:27:55,000 --> 00:27:59,680
it correlated with things that happened with white settlers coming to America.

580
00:27:59,680 --> 00:28:01,320
So this all could just be an allegory.

581
00:28:01,320 --> 00:28:04,680
I'm not saying the Pukwudgies aren't real, but at the same time, they might be using

582
00:28:04,680 --> 00:28:12,080
the Pukwudgies and their god as an allegory for what happened to the Wampanoag people

583
00:28:12,080 --> 00:28:17,280
in Massachusetts and what happened as a correlation with the white settlers coming.

584
00:28:17,280 --> 00:28:22,200
So if you want to look into that, I'll post a link to where that information is, but it

585
00:28:22,200 --> 00:28:23,200
was pretty cool.

586
00:28:23,200 --> 00:28:26,080
I also didn't include any sightings, like recent sightings of the Pukwudgie because

587
00:28:26,080 --> 00:28:27,920
we're already at 30 minutes and I try to keep...

588
00:28:27,920 --> 00:28:28,920
I keep it tight.

589
00:28:28,920 --> 00:28:29,920
Yeah, yeah, yeah.

590
00:28:29,920 --> 00:28:30,920
You know what I mean?

591
00:28:30,920 --> 00:28:31,920
Yeah.

592
00:28:31,920 --> 00:28:32,920
Yeah.

593
00:28:32,920 --> 00:28:33,920
We don't...

594
00:28:33,920 --> 00:28:34,920
You don't need to listen to people.

595
00:28:34,920 --> 00:28:40,560
People don't want to listen to you ramble on for an hour or two like I do.

596
00:28:40,560 --> 00:28:48,560
Well, for your listeners, if they're interested, for again, Dave was on my show, I think it

597
00:28:48,560 --> 00:28:53,560
was episode 88 and we rambled on for almost two hours.

598
00:28:53,560 --> 00:28:58,160
Dave also got a little tipsy and...

599
00:28:58,160 --> 00:29:00,160
He got so hammered.

600
00:29:00,160 --> 00:29:01,840
Well, he started.

601
00:29:01,840 --> 00:29:05,320
He started with mimosas or something, something for breakfast.

602
00:29:05,320 --> 00:29:07,160
He went to brunch.

603
00:29:07,160 --> 00:29:12,280
We went to brunch and I was already half in the bag when we started.

604
00:29:12,280 --> 00:29:14,560
I started, I was just...

605
00:29:14,560 --> 00:29:15,560
I had fun.

606
00:29:15,560 --> 00:29:18,800
I can't imagine it was a very well listened to episode, but I had a good time.

607
00:29:18,800 --> 00:29:19,800
I had fun too.

608
00:29:19,800 --> 00:29:20,800
I had fun.

609
00:29:20,800 --> 00:29:23,000
It was...

610
00:29:23,000 --> 00:29:26,880
I wouldn't say it was less listened to than any others.

611
00:29:26,880 --> 00:29:27,880
They all had...

612
00:29:27,880 --> 00:29:30,960
I just recently checked the numbers because I normally don't check my numbers because

613
00:29:30,960 --> 00:29:33,640
I don't care because I like doing it.

614
00:29:33,640 --> 00:29:34,640
You know what I mean?

615
00:29:34,640 --> 00:29:35,640
Yeah.

616
00:29:35,640 --> 00:29:36,640
That's what it's all about.

617
00:29:36,640 --> 00:29:37,640
Yeah.

618
00:29:37,640 --> 00:29:42,680
I randomly decided two nights ago to check the numbers and it's pretty even across the

619
00:29:42,680 --> 00:29:43,960
board for every episode.

620
00:29:43,960 --> 00:29:47,480
There's one episode that has more listens than others, but other than that, and I can't

621
00:29:47,480 --> 00:29:51,080
even remember what episode it was, but pretty much every...

622
00:29:51,080 --> 00:29:52,080
I'm proud of you, bud.

623
00:29:52,080 --> 00:29:53,080
I'm proud of you.

624
00:29:53,080 --> 00:29:54,080
Over a hundred episodes?

625
00:29:54,080 --> 00:29:55,080
That is bonkers, dude.

626
00:29:55,080 --> 00:29:56,080
Yeah.

627
00:29:56,080 --> 00:29:57,080
110 and 111 come out this week.

628
00:29:57,080 --> 00:29:58,080
Oh yeah, you do two a week, don't you?

629
00:29:58,080 --> 00:29:59,080
Yeah, I do.

630
00:29:59,080 --> 00:30:00,080
Maybe I should get on that racket.

631
00:30:00,080 --> 00:30:08,920
It's kind of crazy sometimes.

632
00:30:08,920 --> 00:30:09,920
Sometimes I get over...

633
00:30:09,920 --> 00:30:16,920
Because I work 60 plus hours a week, so sometimes I'm like, oh shit, I fucking forgot to finish

634
00:30:16,920 --> 00:30:20,160
the editing and blah, blah, blah, blah, or something.

635
00:30:20,160 --> 00:30:21,160
Something's stupid.

636
00:30:21,160 --> 00:30:25,540
And then I'm rushing around either early in the morning before I go to work on the day

637
00:30:25,540 --> 00:30:27,640
that it's supposed to go be fucking posted.

638
00:30:27,640 --> 00:30:30,200
Dude, you just described my workflow to a T.

639
00:30:30,200 --> 00:30:31,200
Yeah.

640
00:30:31,200 --> 00:30:37,760
All right, Kev, well, is there anything you want to plug, anything you want to say before

641
00:30:37,760 --> 00:30:39,240
we sign off for the day?

642
00:30:39,240 --> 00:30:40,240
Yeah, sure.

643
00:30:40,240 --> 00:30:41,480
I mean, this was fun, man.

644
00:30:41,480 --> 00:30:42,840
I appreciate you asking me.

645
00:30:42,840 --> 00:30:46,640
I know it wasn't your first pick, but it's all right.

646
00:30:46,640 --> 00:30:47,640
I'm just kidding.

647
00:30:47,640 --> 00:30:49,280
I'm fucking around with it.

648
00:30:49,280 --> 00:30:51,960
But no, if anybody's interested, so I do...

649
00:30:51,960 --> 00:30:58,280
My podcast is a conversational based podcast.

650
00:30:58,280 --> 00:31:00,840
Are you in a stroke right now?

651
00:31:00,840 --> 00:31:01,840
Are you okay?

652
00:31:01,840 --> 00:31:02,840
Do you want to talk?

653
00:31:02,840 --> 00:31:03,840
I'm fucking...

654
00:31:03,840 --> 00:31:04,840
I'm having Tourette's or something.

655
00:31:04,840 --> 00:31:05,840
I don't know.

656
00:31:05,840 --> 00:31:12,600
But it's a conversational based podcast that revolves around guest experiences, encounters

657
00:31:12,600 --> 00:31:18,480
with paranormal, cryptids, supernatural things, aliens, UFOs.

658
00:31:18,480 --> 00:31:19,980
We talk about spirituality.

659
00:31:19,980 --> 00:31:26,640
We get into religion a bit and conspiracies and also love to touch on mental health because

660
00:31:26,640 --> 00:31:31,200
when you have these weird experiences, you tend to think you're crazy.

661
00:31:31,200 --> 00:31:37,840
And I just want to provide a safe space for people who have what they think is an experience,

662
00:31:37,840 --> 00:31:40,960
whether it happened or not.

663
00:31:40,960 --> 00:31:41,960
They believe it.

664
00:31:41,960 --> 00:31:45,520
So I want to provide that space for them to tell their story.

665
00:31:45,520 --> 00:31:53,920
But yeah, so you can catch it on YouTube or any other pod catcher that you listen to,

666
00:31:53,920 --> 00:31:54,920
I think.

667
00:31:54,920 --> 00:31:55,920
Yeah.

668
00:31:55,920 --> 00:32:00,200
And then you can follow him on Instagram at where the weird ones are.

669
00:32:00,200 --> 00:32:01,200
Is that what it is?

670
00:32:01,200 --> 00:32:03,720
Where the weird ones are, right?

671
00:32:03,720 --> 00:32:04,720
Yeah.

672
00:32:04,720 --> 00:32:05,880
Where underscore the weird ones are.

673
00:32:05,880 --> 00:32:08,600
But I'm pretty sure if you just type in the name, it'll come up.

674
00:32:08,600 --> 00:32:09,600
You'll find it.

675
00:32:09,600 --> 00:32:14,240
You'll find the white and black logo is the easiest thing to look for, I feel like.

676
00:32:14,240 --> 00:32:15,240
All right, man.

677
00:32:15,240 --> 00:32:16,240
So I'm going to get you coming on.

678
00:32:16,240 --> 00:32:20,040

You can follow us on TikTok at Crypto Cocktail Party.

680
00:32:23,040 --> 00:32:24,040
I have a Discord.

681
00:32:24,040 --> 00:32:27,320
I don't ever fucking use it anymore because there was no one in there and I was talking

682
00:32:27,320 --> 00:32:28,360
to myself pretty much.

683
00:32:28,360 --> 00:32:30,480
But if you want to join, that'd be awesome.

684
00:32:30,480 --> 00:32:32,000
You know, give me someone to talk to.

685
00:32:32,000 --> 00:32:33,280
We have a Patreon.

686
00:32:33,280 --> 00:32:35,080
It's five dollars a month.

687
00:32:35,080 --> 00:32:39,320
I have been very much slacking on doing it, but it's more just to support the show.

688
00:32:39,320 --> 00:32:42,320
I might change it to three dollars a month just so people don't expect too much from

689
00:32:42,320 --> 00:32:45,640
me because I feel like five dollars, they expect something from me.

690
00:32:45,640 --> 00:32:46,640
Yeah.

691
00:32:46,640 --> 00:32:51,680
Well, if you already have Patreon members, you're not going to be able to change it unless

692
00:32:51,680 --> 00:32:52,680
you add a new tier.

693
00:32:52,680 --> 00:32:53,680
Never mind.

694
00:32:53,680 --> 00:32:55,720
So it's five dollars a month and it's going to stay that way.

695
00:32:55,720 --> 00:32:57,600
Because I tried to do the same thing.

696
00:32:57,600 --> 00:32:58,720
I tried to drop it to three.

697
00:32:58,720 --> 00:33:00,920
I was like, I feel like five is a little bit too much.

698
00:33:00,920 --> 00:33:04,600
But I went in and I was like, I already have people pledge to it.

699
00:33:04,600 --> 00:33:06,640
And it wouldn't let me and I was like, God damn it.

700
00:33:06,640 --> 00:33:07,640
That sucks.

701
00:33:07,640 --> 00:33:08,640
All right.

702
00:33:08,640 --> 00:33:12,120
Well, anyways, thank you so much for listening, everyone.

703
00:33:12,120 --> 00:33:14,320
And Kevin, with that, would you like to say goodbye to everyone?

704
00:33:14,320 --> 00:33:15,320
OK, love you.

705
00:33:15,320 --> 00:33:16,320
Bye.

706
00:33:16,320 --> 00:33:17,320
Thanks for being here.

707
00:33:17,320 --> 00:33:42,520
Thank you.
