You just described everyone 00:01:23.019 --> 00:01:26.980 at all times. Yeah. Right. Sometimes I'm bad, 00:01:27.159 --> 00:01:29.459 sometimes I'm good. Yeah, I'm trying to be relatable, 00:01:29.719 --> 00:01:33.980 Dave. Trying to be more relatable. All right, 00:01:33.980 --> 00:01:36.359 well, Janice and Jess, why don't you guys, if 00:01:36.359 --> 00:01:39.480 one of you wants to take the reins, tell us a 00:01:39.480 --> 00:01:41.359 little about your show what you're doing give 00:01:41.359 --> 00:01:43.540 the give the uh the audience i guess a vibe your 00:01:43.540 --> 00:01:47.239 vibe i guess would be the best jess i'll let 00:01:47.239 --> 00:01:51.480 you go for it janice oh whoa okay oh my god so 00:01:51.480 --> 00:01:54.260 well okay well we've been friends for a really 00:01:54.260 --> 00:01:58.219 long time okay and we just decided let's do a 00:01:58.219 --> 00:02:02.920 podcast and we do um pop culture moments we do 00:02:02.920 --> 00:02:07.579 stories And then with movie deaths that were 00:02:07.579 --> 00:02:12.060 haunted by. Yeah. Okay. Oh, okay. So we've got 00:02:12.060 --> 00:02:14.120 a little bit of variety. We're kind of all over 00:02:14.120 --> 00:02:17.319 the place, but you know, we, we make it work. 00:02:17.360 --> 00:02:19.860 We make it flow. At least we think we do, but 00:02:19.860 --> 00:02:21.300 it's still all kind of the same niche. Like, 00:02:21.319 --> 00:02:23.620 it's not like you're doing like horror one day 00:02:23.620 --> 00:02:25.639 and then romantic comedies the next day. And 00:02:25.639 --> 00:02:27.659 then like, so I mean, I think it works. I could 00:02:27.659 --> 00:02:31.099 see how it would flow. Yeah. That's good. All 00:02:31.099 --> 00:02:33.740 right, so I guess just, Janice, before we start, 00:02:33.819 --> 00:02:35.659 I just have one question. Are you guys, like, 00:02:35.719 --> 00:02:39.419 cryptids people at all? Like, do you guys like 00:02:39.419 --> 00:02:42.240 cryptids at all? Oh, yeah, definitely. Something 00:02:42.240 --> 00:02:45.360 you're into? Awesome. The weirder, the better. 00:02:45.500 --> 00:02:47.939 This episode has nothing to do with that, so. 00:02:48.580 --> 00:02:52.000 Damn. Okay, then, you know, we'll see you later. 00:02:52.439 --> 00:02:55.159 We were tricked. But it kind of falls in the 00:02:55.159 --> 00:02:56.259 same realm. The old bait and switch. We're going 00:02:56.259 --> 00:02:58.120 to talk about economic policy. This is where 00:02:58.120 --> 00:03:00.780 our cut issues come from, and they just keep 00:03:00.780 --> 00:03:06.960 on going. Now I'm sweating. Just keep drinking. 00:03:07.159 --> 00:03:09.479 That could be the vodka soda, though. I'm going 00:03:09.479 --> 00:03:13.120 to drink that. All right. So, you guys, let me 00:03:13.120 --> 00:03:15.879 set the scene for you, okay? New Year's Day, 00:03:16.060 --> 00:03:19.830 2024. A packed mall suddenly erupts into chaos. 00:03:20.050 --> 00:03:22.210 Crowds of terrified shoppers running in every 00:03:22.210 --> 00:03:24.469 direction, stores slamming their gates shut, 00:03:24.629 --> 00:03:26.849 police cruisers pour into the plaza with their 00:03:26.849 --> 00:03:29.449 sirens and lights ablaze. Nobody really seems 00:03:29.449 --> 00:03:31.849 to know what's going on, but everyone can feel 00:03:31.849 --> 00:03:35.250 that something is very, very off. Within minutes, 00:03:35.430 --> 00:03:37.509 shaky phone footage starts exploding on social 00:03:37.509 --> 00:03:40.009 media, each one adding more and more confusion 00:03:40.009 --> 00:03:42.050 into the mix. Something went down that night, 00:03:42.090 --> 00:03:44.569 and whatever it was, it sent the internet into 00:03:44.569 --> 00:03:47.520 full -blown meltdown. This week, my esteemed 00:03:47.520 --> 00:03:51.159 guests and Sarge, I think we're going to figure 00:03:51.159 --> 00:03:53.319 it all out. Today, we are going to be discussing 00:03:53.319 --> 00:03:56.599 the Miami Mall incident. Do you guys remember 00:03:56.599 --> 00:03:57.979 this? Is this something you guys are familiar 00:03:57.979 --> 00:04:03.060 with? No. Oh, I think I do. What do you think 00:04:03.060 --> 00:04:06.979 it is, Jess, real quick? Was this the alien thing? 00:04:07.319 --> 00:04:10.879 Hell yeah, it was the alien thing. Yes! Yes! 00:04:11.259 --> 00:04:13.699 Okay. I missed this. Sarge, you don't remember 00:04:13.699 --> 00:04:16.420 this at all? No, man. I don't even remember what 00:04:16.420 --> 00:04:18.660 I had for breakfast. Dude, the video footage 00:04:18.660 --> 00:04:21.279 in this is wild. Janice, do you remember this 00:04:21.279 --> 00:04:24.660 at all? No, does that mean I'm so uneducated? 00:04:24.819 --> 00:04:27.920 Like, am I just under a rock? Just, like, not 00:04:27.920 --> 00:04:30.959 paying attention? Because it wasn't that long 00:04:30.959 --> 00:04:33.579 ago. i should have been trying to stay tuned 00:04:33.579 --> 00:04:35.620 in but i don't know how i would have missed an 00:04:35.620 --> 00:04:39.180 alien sighting in a shopping mall i dug through 00:04:39.180 --> 00:04:42.399 videos to find this freaking alien so i'm psyched 00:04:42.399 --> 00:04:45.319 let's do it this this thing was everywhere like 00:04:45.319 --> 00:04:47.879 and not just like tiktok and twitter like it 00:04:47.879 --> 00:04:50.720 was any social media like you couldn't escape 00:04:50.720 --> 00:04:53.209 it for like i feel like months almost like it 00:04:53.209 --> 00:04:55.709 was everywhere so yeah so this whole situation 00:04:55.709 --> 00:04:58.550 blew up on social media like tiktok and twitter 00:04:58.550 --> 00:05:02.310 all thanks to one short grainy video someone 00:05:02.310 --> 00:05:05.689 at bayside marketplace films this like this chaos 00:05:05.689 --> 00:05:07.889 outside the mall from across the plaza police 00:05:07.889 --> 00:05:09.970 lights flashing against the buildings people 00:05:09.970 --> 00:05:12.850 running officers moving with purpose it looks 00:05:12.850 --> 00:05:15.050 like something serious is happening but the footage 00:05:15.050 --> 00:05:18.939 is shaky and kind of unclear Then the camera 00:05:18.939 --> 00:05:22.279 shifts ever so slightly, just enough to catch 00:05:22.279 --> 00:05:24.980 a tall, dark shape near one of the mall entrances. 00:05:25.100 --> 00:05:26.980 It's hard to make out because the footage looks 00:05:26.980 --> 00:05:29.540 like it was filmed on like a Motorola Razr, but 00:05:29.540 --> 00:05:34.139 it appears to show a long, upright silhouette 00:05:34.139 --> 00:05:36.620 in the middle of like the flashing red and blue 00:05:36.620 --> 00:05:40.060 lights. Could be a person, could be a shadow, 00:05:40.240 --> 00:05:44.199 could be anything. But as we all know, that uncertainty 00:05:44.199 --> 00:05:47.319 of what was being shown is all it takes. The 00:05:47.319 --> 00:05:49.519 clip hits TikTok, and while the original clip 00:05:49.519 --> 00:05:51.839 never mentions aliens or anything nefarious, 00:05:52.040 --> 00:05:56.019 it was kind of basically like a, oh shit, shit's 00:05:56.019 --> 00:05:59.060 going down at the mall kind of video. The internet 00:05:59.060 --> 00:06:02.579 immediately and collectively decided, nah man, 00:06:02.819 --> 00:06:07.160 this is weird. So users began making their own 00:06:07.160 --> 00:06:09.939 videos, zooming in frame by frame, circling shapes, 00:06:10.240 --> 00:06:12.699 slowing down the footage, and swearing up and 00:06:12.699 --> 00:06:15.740 down that you can clearly... And I'm using the 00:06:15.740 --> 00:06:19.279 word clearly here in like the loosest of terms. 00:06:19.639 --> 00:06:23.120 You can clearly see something that they can't 00:06:23.120 --> 00:06:24.040 explain. They're like, it's clear as day over 00:06:24.040 --> 00:06:26.860 in that corner covered in darkness. I know what 00:06:26.860 --> 00:06:29.379 it is. I mean, it's tough to tell when you film 00:06:29.379 --> 00:06:33.319 with the original pixel. Yeah, seriously. It 00:06:33.319 --> 00:06:35.540 literally looks like it was filmed on like a 00:06:35.540 --> 00:06:39.300 Nokia. Like it was not. It's a Nokia phone with 00:06:39.300 --> 00:06:44.170 a camera like duct taped. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, there's 00:06:44.170 --> 00:06:47.410 like some guy in old -timey garb using a daguerreotype. 00:06:48.370 --> 00:06:51.310 Someone's on a crank in the corner like, we got 00:06:51.310 --> 00:06:54.370 footage, I promise. The footage was recorded 00:06:54.370 --> 00:06:58.209 on glass. Yeah. This is going to be huge, guys. 00:06:58.889 --> 00:07:00.949 This is going to be huge. Do you see it? No, 00:07:01.089 --> 00:07:05.470 I don't. No one does. Don't worry about it. Even 00:07:05.470 --> 00:07:07.569 though it wasn't the best footage, the video 00:07:07.569 --> 00:07:10.329 takes off spreading far and spreading fast. Again, 00:07:10.370 --> 00:07:13.500 not because it's clear. but because it isn't. 00:07:13.720 --> 00:07:16.379 And once the hashtags started rolling in and 00:07:16.379 --> 00:07:18.579 that footage started going around, the narrative 00:07:18.579 --> 00:07:20.740 surrounding what was going on took on a life 00:07:20.740 --> 00:07:23.319 of its own. So like in a matter of minutes, and 00:07:23.319 --> 00:07:26.500 I mean fucking like the day of minutes, people 00:07:26.500 --> 00:07:29.740 online went from what's happening in Miami to 00:07:29.740 --> 00:07:32.439 there are fucking aliens standing outside of 00:07:32.439 --> 00:07:35.740 the mall in Miami. But before the alien stuff 00:07:35.740 --> 00:07:38.899 even started. miami police did put out a statement 00:07:38.899 --> 00:07:41.540 explaining what went down at bayside mall so 00:07:41.540 --> 00:07:44.199 according to them a bunch of teenagers got into 00:07:44.199 --> 00:07:46.540 like this huge scuffle or whatever and they were 00:07:46.540 --> 00:07:49.120 setting off fireworks inside the mall you know 00:07:49.120 --> 00:07:52.120 just your typical teenage shit you know as we 00:07:52.120 --> 00:07:57.480 all did growing up casual yeah yeah so what happened 00:07:57.480 --> 00:08:01.269 or allegedly what happened is around 8 30 p .m 00:08:01.269 --> 00:08:03.449 people in the mall started hearing loud bangs 00:08:03.449 --> 00:08:05.170 all throughout the building which they all thought 00:08:05.170 --> 00:08:08.009 were gunshots now that triggered a panic and 00:08:08.009 --> 00:08:10.430 stores started locking down people ran for the 00:08:10.430 --> 00:08:12.449 exits and officers flooded the scene to figure 00:08:12.449 --> 00:08:14.850 out what the fuck was happening now they found 00:08:14.850 --> 00:08:17.709 the bangs were just fireworks not guns they said 00:08:17.709 --> 00:08:19.930 the disturbance was quote -unquote a large group 00:08:19.930 --> 00:08:22.769 of juveniles and they insisted the whole thing 00:08:22.769 --> 00:08:25.509 was just your typical run -of -the -mill new 00:08:25.509 --> 00:08:30.029 year's scuffle That was the official line.

Have I been part 00:08:42.850 --> 00:08:45.509 of these scuffles? No, but I've heard of them. 00:08:46.090 --> 00:08:49.610 The thing is, when it happens in Boston, it's 00:08:49.610 --> 00:08:53.970 a Donnybrook with a Donny Wahlberg. Almost always. 00:08:54.250 --> 00:08:56.789 There'll be a movie next weekend with Mark Wahlberg 00:08:56.789 --> 00:09:00.950 in it. Playing his brother. Just another Wahlberg. 00:09:01.169 --> 00:09:05.429 Just keep going. I mean, you can't blame people 00:09:05.429 --> 00:09:08.429 for thinking that. The Wahlbergs are like squirrels. 00:09:08.429 --> 00:09:11.289 They're everywhere. They are everywhere. Talk 00:09:11.289 --> 00:09:14.870 about a nuisance. And just like squirrels, you 00:09:14.870 --> 00:09:18.350 can't get rid of them. But they're part of the 00:09:18.350 --> 00:09:20.730 scenery. And you're like, ah, it's a squirrel. 00:09:20.830 --> 00:09:23.350 Is it a squirrel? Is it a Wahlberg? Just keep 00:09:23.350 --> 00:09:26.590 moving. I don't know. Did it open a burger restaurant? 00:09:26.809 --> 00:09:29.330 Then it's probably a Wahlberg. Probably a Wahlberg. 00:09:29.629 --> 00:09:31.850 In your crawl space, chewing at your wiring. 00:09:32.129 --> 00:09:39.470 Probably a Wahlberg. Well, the internet, they 00:09:39.470 --> 00:09:42.029 saw that, you know, the statement from the police 00:09:42.029 --> 00:09:46.169 and kind of collectively went, sure. And it's 00:09:46.169 --> 00:09:49.149 that skepticism that made this whole thing worse 00:09:49.149 --> 00:09:51.490 because once that first shaky video, like... 00:09:51.759 --> 00:09:55.419 really took off the eyewitnesses quote unquote 00:09:55.419 --> 00:09:58.159 uh came out of the woodwork not like official 00:09:58.159 --> 00:10:01.220 witnesses or like people the news or the police 00:10:01.220 --> 00:10:03.200 talked to these are just random people stitching 00:10:03.200 --> 00:10:05.740 the clip or like talking over screenshots or 00:10:05.740 --> 00:10:08.299 writing poorly grammatic captions about what 00:10:08.299 --> 00:10:11.879 they swore they saw at bayside that night one 00:10:11.879 --> 00:10:15.240 tiktok user uh claimed she was at the mall and 00:10:15.240 --> 00:10:17.940 said that something quote unquote huge had happened 00:10:17.940 --> 00:10:20.860 and then immediately went on to say Not a single 00:10:20.860 --> 00:10:23.460 news station is talking about it, which in conspiracy 00:10:23.460 --> 00:10:26.299 talk is basically accusing the news and the government 00:10:26.299 --> 00:10:30.220 of a cover up.

Shadow figures lurking near storefronts. 00:11:22.110 --> 00:11:24.970 And these stories started spreading faster than 00:11:24.970 --> 00:11:27.850 the actual clip itself. And each one seemed to 00:11:27.850 --> 00:11:30.669 be bigger, scarier, and more exaggerated than 00:11:30.669 --> 00:11:34.789 the last. And because the internet decidedly 00:11:34.789 --> 00:11:36.730 isn't the best at moderation or common sense, 00:11:36.870 --> 00:11:39.769 the theories about who or what happened started 00:11:39.769 --> 00:11:42.899 to come in. And they pretty much went... nuclear 00:11:42.899 --> 00:11:45.360 some users insisted that the creatures didn't 00:11:45.360 --> 00:11:47.700 just appear that they were summoned claiming 00:11:47.700 --> 00:11:50.539 the teens inside the mall had opened a portal 00:11:50.539 --> 00:11:53.559 during the chaos oh so it's stranger things yeah 00:11:53.559 --> 00:11:56.120 pretty much with people and fucking portals yeah 00:11:56.120 --> 00:11:59.159 yeah i feel like all the time now it's a portal 00:11:59.159 --> 00:12:02.399 people love portals well we're getting bored 00:12:02.399 --> 00:12:06.980 sarge we need portals when you scuffle with enough 00:12:06.980 --> 00:12:12.539 people a portal automatically open You're like, 00:12:12.539 --> 00:12:15.539 hey, this couple can only have 10 any higher. 00:12:15.639 --> 00:12:19.139 We got a portal on our hands. That's why you 00:12:19.139 --> 00:12:21.159 have to be really careful when there's a victory 00:12:21.159 --> 00:12:25.539 parade in Boston. Others decided the beings were 00:12:25.539 --> 00:12:27.960 actually Nephilim, you know, like from the Bible. 00:12:28.940 --> 00:12:35.120 God damn it. God damn it. Always. Some decided 00:12:35.120 --> 00:12:37.779 that they were connected to the 10 -foot -tall 00:12:37.779 --> 00:12:39.720 aliens that were spotted in that dude's backyard 00:12:39.720 --> 00:12:42.019 in Vegas just a few months before that. I don't 00:12:42.019 --> 00:12:43.759 know if you guys remember the Vegas alien. Yep, 00:12:43.820 --> 00:12:47.200 I do remember that. Yeah. Also, it didn't matter 00:12:47.200 --> 00:12:49.120 that almost every one of these eyewitness accounts 00:12:49.120 --> 00:12:51.899 contradicted the last. The internet only cared 00:12:51.899 --> 00:12:54.159 about the overarching theme of the accounts, 00:12:54.360 --> 00:12:57.580 which was, quote, like, I was there, I saw something, 00:12:57.740 --> 00:13:00.779 and the police are covering it up. Even though 00:13:00.779 --> 00:13:02.600 none of the witnesses seemed to, you know, have, 00:13:02.679 --> 00:13:05.850 like... videos photos it was pretty much all 00:13:05.850 --> 00:13:09.470 just based on vibes like yeah just vibes honestly 00:13:09.470 --> 00:13:13.450 straight vibes most of the time yeah i mean vibes 00:13:13.450 --> 00:13:17.350 are really all you need yeah so the question 00:13:17.350 --> 00:13:20.429 really is like why was everyone so ready to jump 00:13:20.429 --> 00:13:23.149 to aliens so quickly well for starters nobody 00:13:23.149 --> 00:13:25.210 had a clear explanation of what had actually 00:13:25.210 --> 00:13:29.159 happened for a couple hours when Dozens of cruisers 00:13:29.159 --> 00:13:31.279 swarm a mall on New Year's with their lights 00:13:31.279 --> 00:13:34.220 on full blast, blocking roads, cops running around. 00:13:34.340 --> 00:13:36.840 An official word is basically crickets for a 00:13:36.840 --> 00:13:39.019 while. Even for a short amount of time, it creates 00:13:39.019 --> 00:13:41.580 this perfect little vacuum. And if there's anything 00:13:41.580 --> 00:13:44.899 the internet refuses to let exist, it's a vacuum. 00:13:45.559 --> 00:13:48.840 Then you add grainy, quote unquote, tall figure 00:13:48.840 --> 00:13:51.519 videos into the mix. One weird shadow at the 00:13:51.519 --> 00:13:54.000 wrong angle. One shape that kind of sort of looks 00:13:54.000 --> 00:13:55.960 like something non -human. If you squint hard 00:13:55.960 --> 00:13:58.190 enough, then suddenly people are like, Oh, yeah, 00:13:58.230 --> 00:14:01.970 that's for sure a 10 -foot alien just chilling 00:14:01.970 --> 00:14:04.330 outside the mall. Naturally. Right. What time 00:14:04.330 --> 00:14:07.110 of year was this? Well, hold on. Give me one 00:14:07.110 --> 00:14:09.929 second. All right. Plus, it probably didn't help 00:14:09.929 --> 00:14:13.429 that it was New Year's Day. So two -thirds of 00:14:13.429 --> 00:14:16.789 the country was hungover and sleep -deprived, 00:14:16.830 --> 00:14:19.450 and they were just doom -scrolling, which, I 00:14:19.450 --> 00:14:21.629 mean, that's kind of prime time for people to 00:14:21.629 --> 00:14:26.539 see blurry shadows and go, that's aliens? Definitely. 00:14:26.539 --> 00:14:29.320 I mean, we all hallucinate when we're hungover, 00:14:29.379 --> 00:14:32.919 right? This is just a given. Tell me that is 00:14:32.919 --> 00:14:36.519 normal, please. Yeah, of course. It's Sunday 00:14:36.519 --> 00:14:40.360 mornings. I'm like, oh my God, is it a gremlin? 00:14:40.539 --> 00:14:46.080 Am I hungover? I don't know. So by the time real 00:14:46.080 --> 00:14:47.980 information came out, the internet had already 00:14:47.980 --> 00:14:50.960 built a narrative and I got to give it to them. 00:14:51.039 --> 00:14:54.519 It's definitely way more exciting. This thing 00:14:54.519 --> 00:14:56.679 didn't slow down. All of this was just within 00:14:56.679 --> 00:14:59.379 the first day or so. Once those first few clips 00:14:59.379 --> 00:15:02.259 hit the internet and it was, like, really going 00:15:02.259 --> 00:15:07.039 viral, it went even more viraler, I guess. And 00:15:07.039 --> 00:15:10.299 the claims got even crazier. Like, for instance... 00:15:11.210 --> 00:15:13.350 There's claims of a shootout. Multiple posts 00:15:13.350 --> 00:15:16.870 insisted that the police had begun engaging hostile 00:15:16.870 --> 00:15:20.909 entities inside and outside the mall. So yeah, 00:15:20.950 --> 00:15:22.690 so according to these people, officers were literally 00:15:22.690 --> 00:15:26.169 shooting at the creatures. Okay, good. That might 00:15:26.169 --> 00:15:28.429 be the most accurate part of the story. Can you 00:15:28.429 --> 00:15:31.590 imagine if Nephilim came down to Earth and the 00:15:31.590 --> 00:15:33.350 police showed up, they'd just start shooting 00:15:33.350 --> 00:15:35.309 angels? They'd just shoot at it. I don't know. 00:15:35.529 --> 00:15:38.450 To be fair, I feel like this is the one time 00:15:38.450 --> 00:15:44.019 where that's a valid response. Yeah. Yeah. It's 00:15:44.019 --> 00:15:46.299 like, how do you stop the apocalypse? You shoot 00:15:46.299 --> 00:15:49.120 at it. Yeah. Right. We've all seen dogma. That's 00:15:49.120 --> 00:15:53.960 exactly what you do. There's truly nothing more 00:15:53.960 --> 00:15:55.980 American than shooting at something you don't 00:15:55.980 --> 00:16:01.799 understand. Yeah. It's valid. I get it. The second 00:16:01.799 --> 00:16:06.720 amendment. Every cryptid story. Yeah. Is that. 00:16:07.159 --> 00:16:10.360 a bunch of villagers grab shotguns and go out 00:16:10.360 --> 00:16:14.059 to the streets. Yeah. I mean, what else are you 00:16:14.059 --> 00:16:16.039 going to do? Sometimes you got to, I guess. Yeah. 00:16:16.120 --> 00:16:19.799 Yeah. Right. Exactly. Start firing wildly into 00:16:19.799 --> 00:16:22.340 the air to scare off whatever you don't understand. 00:16:22.519 --> 00:16:26.220 Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. I'm really glad we're all on 00:16:26.220 --> 00:16:29.929 the same page. Right. Yeah. I don't know if Sargent 00:16:29.929 --> 00:16:32.149 is on the same page. He just loves when it happens. 00:16:33.230 --> 00:16:37.470 It's just always, it never fails to make me laugh. 00:16:37.610 --> 00:16:39.909 Every single time, I'm just like, of course they 00:16:39.909 --> 00:16:42.509 brought out the guns. But I mean, a shootout 00:16:42.509 --> 00:16:46.149 between the cops and aliens, I say shootout as 00:16:46.149 --> 00:16:47.750 if they were shooting back. I don't think they 00:16:47.750 --> 00:16:51.909 were, but they were just shooting at unarmed 00:16:51.909 --> 00:16:54.070 beings. But that would naturally explain all 00:16:54.070 --> 00:16:57.799 the sirens, all the cops, never mind. All that 00:16:57.799 --> 00:17:00.559 aside, never mind the fact that not a single 00:17:00.559 --> 00:17:02.480 person recorded gunshots, bullet holes, or anything 00:17:02.480 --> 00:17:05.640 like that. It's still a pretty fun claim. Then 00:17:05.640 --> 00:17:08.200 came the claims that the FAA has shut down all 00:17:08.200 --> 00:17:11.279 air traffic over Miami and that the airport was 00:17:11.279 --> 00:17:14.019 locked down and all flights were grounded and 00:17:14.019 --> 00:17:17.279 then the skies were swept clear. There was also 00:17:17.279 --> 00:17:19.259 people claiming that there was a sweeping power 00:17:19.259 --> 00:17:22.059 outage and that there were Wi -Fi and phone service. 00:17:22.240 --> 00:17:25.359 It cut out for an unspecified amount of time. 00:17:25.930 --> 00:17:28.549 And obviously, you can't have a good alien conspiracy 00:17:28.549 --> 00:17:31.869 without unmarked black helicopters. So people 00:17:31.869 --> 00:17:35.789 were insisting that these black helicopters were 00:17:35.789 --> 00:17:38.009 hovering over downtown Miami and sweeping the 00:17:38.009 --> 00:17:41.430 area. Then you have my personal favorite, which 00:17:41.430 --> 00:17:43.690 we touched on previously. They just came out 00:17:43.690 --> 00:17:47.240 of portals. That's it. Just a portal. And they 00:17:47.240 --> 00:17:49.380 came on through. That scene from the Avengers 00:17:49.380 --> 00:17:51.579 movie. Yeah. I don't know why. All these portals 00:17:51.579 --> 00:17:53.480 opening. I think that's really funny. It's a 00:17:53.480 --> 00:17:55.880 great one. Frankly, I feel bad for the aliens. 00:17:56.180 --> 00:17:58.339 Because I'm sure they were like, we come in peace. 00:17:58.519 --> 00:18:01.539 And the police were like, we don't. Yeah. They 00:18:01.539 --> 00:18:03.799 were like, okay, well. Game on, motherfucker. 00:18:04.279 --> 00:18:05.960 I mean, isn't that most police interactions? 00:18:06.980 --> 00:18:11.119 Exactly. But the best part of all of this. Stop 00:18:11.119 --> 00:18:13.880 resisting as you're lying on the ground. Right. 00:18:14.559 --> 00:18:16.829 Let's not get too heavy, Sarge, all right? We're 00:18:16.829 --> 00:18:22.269 talking about aliens. But in the best part of 00:18:22.269 --> 00:18:25.190 all this, not a single person's story matched 00:18:25.190 --> 00:18:28.630 anyone else's. None of them matched. Nobody had 00:18:28.630 --> 00:18:31.730 the same details. Nobody had the proof. And half 00:18:31.730 --> 00:18:33.609 the claims contradicted the other half. Even 00:18:33.609 --> 00:18:37.190 in videos where people were stitching other quote 00:18:37.190 --> 00:18:39.349 -unquote eyewitness accounts to corroborate their 00:18:39.349 --> 00:18:43.190 story, they would contradict the original person's 00:18:43.190 --> 00:18:46.569 story in their video. Yeah, that's how you know 00:18:46.569 --> 00:18:48.670 it's true. Yeah, but it didn't matter because 00:18:48.670 --> 00:18:52.210 online, again, the theme was the truth, which 00:18:52.210 --> 00:18:55.069 was I was there, I saw something, and the government 00:18:55.069 --> 00:18:58.369 is covering it up. And once the internet decides 00:18:58.369 --> 00:19:02.549 there's a cover -up, good luck trying to convince 00:19:02.549 --> 00:19:05.950 them otherwise. Yeah. So what really happened 00:19:05.950 --> 00:19:10.509 here? Was there aliens? Was there Nephilim or 00:19:10.509 --> 00:19:15.269 anything like that? Well, the truth was... It 00:19:15.269 --> 00:19:17.430 was teenagers. It was teenagers and fireworks. 00:19:19.190 --> 00:19:25.690 That's it. So around 830 p .m., Miami PD started 00:19:25.690 --> 00:19:28.569 getting 911 calls from inside the mall reporting 00:19:28.569 --> 00:19:31.650 gunshots. So people were panicking. Stores were 00:19:31.650 --> 00:19:34.529 slamming their doors and everyone inside was 00:19:34.529 --> 00:19:37.250 scrambling to get out. So the police showed up 00:19:37.250 --> 00:19:40.579 in force expecting to find. active shooters. 00:19:40.740 --> 00:19:42.900 What they actually found was a group of over 00:19:42.900 --> 00:19:45.720 50 kids just going ape shit. They were lighting 00:19:45.720 --> 00:19:48.039 fireworks inside the mall. They were throwing 00:19:48.039 --> 00:19:50.599 shit. They were just causing absolute chaos. 00:19:51.279 --> 00:19:53.859 But once officers realized what was going on, 00:19:53.920 --> 00:19:55.980 even before then, they had called for backup 00:19:55.980 --> 00:20:00.740 and like a lot of backup. Miami PD went into 00:20:00.740 --> 00:20:03.660 a citywide emergency alert, meaning every available 00:20:03.660 --> 00:20:07.740 unit had hauled ass to the Bayside mall. That's 00:20:07.740 --> 00:20:10.460 why you see over 60 cop cars in the video. There's 00:20:10.460 --> 00:20:13.380 hundreds of police officers, not because they 00:20:13.380 --> 00:20:15.660 were forming a perimeter around the mall to have 00:20:15.660 --> 00:20:18.039 a shootout with aliens. No, what they encountered 00:20:18.039 --> 00:20:28.900 was far worse. Youths. Way worse. The Miami PD 00:20:28.900 --> 00:20:31.640 then put out a statement explaining exactly what 00:20:31.640 --> 00:20:33.819 happened. There was no conspiracy, no secrecy, 00:20:33.859 --> 00:20:36.460 no cover -up. They even addressed the alien rumors 00:20:36.460 --> 00:20:39.700 directly in a post saying, quote, there were 00:20:39.700 --> 00:20:43.059 no aliens, UFOs, or ETs, no airports were closed, 00:20:43.200 --> 00:20:46.019 no power outages, calm down. And then they followed 00:20:46.019 --> 00:20:48.920 that up with the facepalm emoji, which I thought 00:20:48.920 --> 00:20:53.970 was really funny. they did the facepalm emoji 00:20:53.970 --> 00:20:57.069 in their announcement no it was like in a social 00:20:57.069 --> 00:20:59.950 media post like they put the facepalm emoji yeah 00:20:59.950 --> 00:21:04.490 the official Miami PD it was pretty good they 00:21:04.490 --> 00:21:06.569 even posted a video where an officer points to 00:21:06.569 --> 00:21:11.240 the giant shadow alien and says quote that That's 00:21:11.240 --> 00:21:14.440 literally a person's shadow, end quote. And he 00:21:14.440 --> 00:21:16.839 walks through the clip frame by frame and pretty 00:21:16.839 --> 00:21:18.660 much proves it's nothing more than just trash 00:21:18.660 --> 00:21:21.200 lighting and shit camera quality. But just for 00:21:21.200 --> 00:21:25.359 fun, they edited in a little CGI alien because 00:21:25.359 --> 00:21:26.859 they were having fun with it. Why wouldn't you? 00:21:28.940 --> 00:21:31.880 Like we're leaning in. We're leaning in. It would 00:21:31.880 --> 00:21:34.099 actually be funnier if it was like a really tiny 00:21:34.099 --> 00:21:37.279 alien. Yes. And it was just casting like a crazy 00:21:37.279 --> 00:21:43.809 long shadow. It wasn't that. It was worse than 00:21:43.809 --> 00:21:49.750 that. It was like clip art. But yeah, so as for 00:21:49.750 --> 00:21:52.529 the other claims, air traffic was never shut 00:21:52.529 --> 00:21:55.309 down in Miami International Airport, never halted 00:21:55.309 --> 00:21:59.230 or grounded anything, both easily provable. You 00:21:59.230 --> 00:22:01.789 can look any of that up. There were no blackouts 00:22:01.789 --> 00:22:04.109 or interruptions to cell phone service or Wi 00:22:04.109 --> 00:22:07.660 -Fi. Again, easily provable. There was no black 00:22:07.660 --> 00:22:11.119 helicopters, not as easily provable, but you're 00:22:11.119 --> 00:22:14.279 telling me that no one got it on camera, not 00:22:14.279 --> 00:22:17.119 a photo, a video. We're carrying cameras everywhere 00:22:17.119 --> 00:22:19.940 we go. Yeah. Yet for some reason, the minute 00:22:19.940 --> 00:22:22.680 a black helicopter shows up, everyone forgets 00:22:22.680 --> 00:22:25.019 how their phone works. Yeah. Or it's that grainy 00:22:25.019 --> 00:22:28.099 Nokia shit. Yeah, exactly. Everyone on earth 00:22:28.099 --> 00:22:30.059 is taking high def fucking pictures of their 00:22:30.059 --> 00:22:31.779 lunch. Until that moment. Post on Instagram. 00:22:32.220 --> 00:22:36.839 Yeah. Now, you guys. are all in agreement with 00:22:36.839 --> 00:22:39.640 not only news outlets, fact -checkers, but also 00:22:39.640 --> 00:22:42.680 William fucking Shatner, because he joined in 00:22:42.680 --> 00:22:46.240 in pointing out that obviously here, like, there's 00:22:46.240 --> 00:22:50.279 not a single person in a crowd of hundreds at 00:22:50.279 --> 00:22:52.880 a mall full of phones got a photo of a 10 -foot 00:22:52.880 --> 00:22:55.779 -tall alien. Not one. Right. Like, not even a 00:22:55.779 --> 00:22:58.559 blurry Bigfoot -ass, like, silhouette. Yeah. 00:22:59.279 --> 00:23:01.640 All anyone had was a weird shadow in that video 00:23:01.640 --> 00:23:04.299 that people really wanted to believe was something 00:23:04.299 --> 00:23:07.200 out of this world. You know, I don't like William. 00:23:07.339 --> 00:23:12.539 There's negative energy. Of all people, Will. 00:23:12.680 --> 00:23:15.339 Of all people, really? You know what? First of 00:23:15.339 --> 00:23:18.279 all, Will, fuck you. I don't dare you. Will, 00:23:18.400 --> 00:23:20.779 fuck you, Shatner. I don't want that, Shatner. 00:23:21.700 --> 00:23:23.940 I should have quoted his actual tweet, but he 00:23:23.940 --> 00:23:26.039 tweeted out something about it, and it was something 00:23:26.039 --> 00:23:29.890 like fucking like... I guess Captain Kirk isn't 00:23:29.890 --> 00:23:33.809 the only one who experiences it. He brought it 00:23:33.809 --> 00:23:35.809 back to Star Trek, but he basically could just 00:23:35.809 --> 00:23:37.130 call it bullshit on the whole thing. It was really 00:23:37.130 --> 00:23:42.430 funny. But yeah, so this whole thing, the Miami 00:23:42.430 --> 00:23:44.710 Mall incident or whatever you want to call it, 00:23:44.769 --> 00:23:47.890 had been pretty much debunked top to bottom by 00:23:47.890 --> 00:23:50.589 January 5th. But like any good internet conspiracy, 00:23:50.849 --> 00:23:53.609 that didn't really matter. Like if you look at 00:23:53.609 --> 00:23:56.630 the likes and views and reposts on videos perpetuating 00:23:56.630 --> 00:23:59.289 the conspiracy versus the ones that are debunking 00:23:59.289 --> 00:24:03.450 them, ratio's a bit skewed. People just seem 00:24:03.450 --> 00:24:05.430 to want to believe that something happened even 00:24:05.430 --> 00:24:08.690 though that something was just teenagers acting 00:24:08.690 --> 00:24:11.829 like dickheads. But yeah, so there you have it. 00:24:12.089 --> 00:24:14.980 The Miami mall incident. It's the night that 00:24:14.980 --> 00:24:17.019 the internet collectively decided Florida had 00:24:17.019 --> 00:24:19.420 been invaded by 10 foot tall shadow aliens. The 00:24:19.420 --> 00:24:21.799 amount of videos I went through for that. Yeah. 00:24:22.039 --> 00:24:24.359 Truly. I went down that rabbit hole. Cause I 00:24:24.359 --> 00:24:25.940 was like, no way. But then I was like, why is 00:24:25.940 --> 00:24:27.279 everything so grainy? And then I went to the 00:24:27.279 --> 00:24:30.279 next video. Like I was in it. I fear I was involved 00:24:30.279 --> 00:24:33.440 in that. Yeah. I think we all kind of were for 00:24:33.440 --> 00:24:35.519 a minute. Well, at least me and you, maybe not 00:24:35.519 --> 00:24:37.880 Sergeant Janice. Show me the alien. Completely 00:24:37.880 --> 00:24:40.799 missed me. So this is a roller coaster ride. 00:24:41.099 --> 00:24:44.920 I've been really like, that's great. I don't 00:24:44.920 --> 00:24:47.019 trust William Shatner anymore. This has been, 00:24:47.039 --> 00:24:52.359 it's been a lot. Well, yeah, so it wasn't 10 00:24:52.359 --> 00:24:54.460 foot tall aliens. It was just a bunch of kids 00:24:54.460 --> 00:24:57.640 who turned a mall into a low budget WWE entrance. 00:24:58.839 --> 00:25:01.039 Yeah. Amazing. But if we're being honest, it's 00:25:01.039 --> 00:25:03.960 kind of the perfect like modern urban legend. 00:25:04.019 --> 00:25:05.819 Like all the ingredients are there for what. 00:25:06.119 --> 00:25:08.859 we normally think of for urban legends it's a 00:25:08.859 --> 00:25:11.319 chaotic scene there's zero information followed 00:25:11.319 --> 00:25:14.299 up by way too much misinformation way too many 00:25:14.299 --> 00:25:16.500 cops there's a grainy ass video that was shot 00:25:16.500 --> 00:25:20.980 in 144p and you mix all that together and i kind 00:25:20.980 --> 00:25:23.299 of get it i get why people latched onto it but 00:25:23.299 --> 00:25:29.210 anyways that's the story for the most part I 00:25:29.210 --> 00:25:31.109 guess we'll go in a circle here. Jess, how are 00:25:31.109 --> 00:25:33.650 you feeling about it? And then we'll go Janice 00:25:33.650 --> 00:25:35.730 and then Sarge. How I'm feeling about this whole 00:25:35.730 --> 00:25:38.849 tale? Well, like I said, I was very deep involved, 00:25:39.150 --> 00:25:41.710 but I was also very frustrated that everyone's 00:25:41.710 --> 00:25:46.390 video was very grainy. But I kind of wanted it 00:25:46.390 --> 00:25:48.650 to be a thing. I'm just like, things, you know, 00:25:48.730 --> 00:25:51.789 things are shit. Like, let's get an alien in 00:25:51.789 --> 00:25:55.779 here. I just I really wanted I really wanted 00:25:55.779 --> 00:25:57.599 something to happen like I think we've gone through 00:25:57.599 --> 00:26:01.119 so much crazy bullshit recently that I'm like 00:26:01.119 --> 00:26:04.619 why not an alien so I was ready for it I think 00:26:04.619 --> 00:26:06.579 you nailed it I think that's kind of where I 00:26:06.579 --> 00:26:08.500 was too I was like I didn't believe it at all 00:26:08.500 --> 00:26:11.380 but I was like I get it like why not like this 00:26:11.380 --> 00:26:13.940 should I wish maybe it wasn't maybe it wasn't 00:26:13.940 --> 00:26:16.660 so much crazy stuff has happened so why not it 00:26:16.660 --> 00:26:19.640 was more like a bunch of crazy stuff has happened 00:26:19.640 --> 00:26:22.190 so Of course this would also be happening. Of 00:26:22.190 --> 00:26:26.789 course, yeah. There's like a meme that's like, 00:26:26.910 --> 00:26:29.769 if someone told me a dragon flew by, I'd be like, 00:26:29.869 --> 00:26:33.089 I believe it. Because why not? Because of course 00:26:33.089 --> 00:26:34.809 there'd be a dragon flying by right now. Yeah, 00:26:34.809 --> 00:26:36.490 exactly. It's just one of those things where 00:26:36.490 --> 00:26:39.990 everyone's just like, you know what, sure. Janice, 00:26:39.990 --> 00:26:42.829 how are you feeling about it? You know, just 00:26:42.829 --> 00:26:44.849 because I don't believe that there was an alien 00:26:44.849 --> 00:26:48.329 here at the mall. Doesn't mean I don't believe 00:26:48.329 --> 00:26:50.730 in aliens. I think they're for sure out there 00:26:50.730 --> 00:26:54.730 somewhere. But I think this is a missed opportunity. 00:26:55.390 --> 00:26:57.930 And we could do an episode of Saved by the Bell 00:26:57.930 --> 00:27:02.309 at the Bayside Mall and do a whole episode. Because 00:27:02.309 --> 00:27:04.309 didn't they go to Bayside High? It just kept 00:27:04.309 --> 00:27:06.670 making me think of Saved by the Bell. Oh, and 00:27:06.670 --> 00:27:09.930 Zach like stops the camera. Yeah. And Zach goes, 00:27:10.089 --> 00:27:13.269 guys, we've got an alien on our hands. And you 00:27:13.269 --> 00:27:17.839 know what? And it turned out it was just Screech 00:27:17.839 --> 00:27:19.220 setting off fireworks. Yeah, the whole time. 00:27:19.339 --> 00:27:22.819 R .I .P. Because he wanted to impress Lisa. Yeah. 00:27:22.900 --> 00:27:27.779 Yeah. Classic tail. Classic tail. Classic. Tail 00:27:27.779 --> 00:27:32.000 is old as time. Exactly. Sarge, how are you feeling? 00:27:32.200 --> 00:27:34.200 So I have like a slightly different perspective 00:27:34.200 --> 00:27:37.539 on this because in 2011, there was a tornado 00:27:37.539 --> 00:27:39.980 that hit Western Massachusetts. That is. National 00:27:39.980 --> 00:27:42.140 Guard at the time. Crazy jump. And I got called 00:27:42.140 --> 00:27:48.710 up. go with my unit into yeah springfield massachusetts 00:27:48.710 --> 00:27:51.829 okay and so we have all these army humvees rolling 00:27:51.829 --> 00:27:56.630 into town and um later on that afternoon my my 00:27:56.630 --> 00:27:59.990 buddy starts laughing and he shows me a facebook 00:27:59.990 --> 00:28:03.230 post that is getting an insurmountable amount 00:28:03.230 --> 00:28:06.230 of love oh god i hope it's mine and i look at 00:28:06.230 --> 00:28:10.150 it and it's a picture of our truck with a few 00:28:10.150 --> 00:28:13.150 others driving into springfield and it is this 00:28:13.150 --> 00:28:16.730 person freaking out that the government is coming 00:28:16.730 --> 00:28:21.609 to seize their guns. Well, yeah. And I started 00:28:21.609 --> 00:28:23.970 laughing hysterically because at this point in 00:28:23.970 --> 00:28:26.650 the operation, we didn't even have fucking guns. 00:28:27.130 --> 00:28:29.069 And this guy's like, I have it on good authority 00:28:29.069 --> 00:28:30.789 that the government is coming to take our guns. 00:28:30.849 --> 00:28:33.490 They're not here to help us. And I'm like, bro, 00:28:33.630 --> 00:28:36.670 I don't even have a knife. Like, what do you 00:28:36.670 --> 00:28:38.650 think I'm going to do? We're just standing on 00:28:38.650 --> 00:28:40.670 the street corner like glorified parking cones. 00:28:40.789 --> 00:28:42.849 Are you kidding me? I'm wearing a yellow vest. 00:28:43.880 --> 00:28:47.299 What do you think is going to happen today? So 00:28:47.299 --> 00:28:50.099 anytime people freak the fuck out because there's 00:28:50.099 --> 00:28:52.960 a lot of police or a lot of helicopters or something 00:28:52.960 --> 00:28:55.440 like that, I think back to that moment and realize 00:28:55.440 --> 00:28:58.759 it doesn't matter what you tell the public. They're 00:28:58.759 --> 00:29:01.660 going to believe it's aliens or a government 00:29:01.660 --> 00:29:04.539 takeover. Oh, for sure. But also, I feel like 00:29:04.539 --> 00:29:07.380 people have forgotten this moment that mass shootings 00:29:07.380 --> 00:29:10.740 happen almost consistently. It's a... That's 00:29:10.740 --> 00:29:13.640 a daily occurrence. So why would your first thought 00:29:13.640 --> 00:29:20.980 be alien invasion? I'm sure there were long shadows 00:29:20.980 --> 00:29:23.500 in other places where there were loud explosions. 00:29:23.640 --> 00:29:25.599 I remember the first time I saw that video, because 00:29:25.599 --> 00:29:28.099 I'm on that whole conspiracy alien side of TikTok, 00:29:28.319 --> 00:29:31.859 and I was like, no one... Yeah, obviously, if 00:29:31.859 --> 00:29:35.059 there's... a multiple active shooter situation, 00:29:35.279 --> 00:29:37.059 they're going to bring the full force down on 00:29:37.059 --> 00:29:39.039 it. They're not going to just be like one cop 00:29:39.039 --> 00:29:41.819 rolling up and be like, oh, I got this, 50 youths. 00:29:42.779 --> 00:29:46.019 50 youths. You know what's going to be great? 00:29:46.079 --> 00:29:48.740 When actual aliens land, no one's going to believe 00:29:48.740 --> 00:29:53.799 it. I know. Yeah. But maybe that's good. I'm 00:29:53.799 --> 00:29:57.000 ready. I'm ready, please. They couldn't possibly 00:29:57.000 --> 00:29:59.000 do worse than what's happening right now. I was 00:29:59.000 --> 00:30:02.089 just going to say, it can't get worse. So. It's 00:30:02.089 --> 00:30:04.369 valid. Bring the aliens. Very valid. Like, I 00:30:04.369 --> 00:30:06.910 literally would be like, oh, okay. Yeah. But 00:30:06.910 --> 00:30:08.329 again, aliens are going to show up. What are 00:30:08.329 --> 00:30:11.029 you going to do? Lower oil prices? Like, come 00:30:11.029 --> 00:30:15.250 on in. Are my groceries cheaper now? Yeah. Come 00:30:15.250 --> 00:30:19.549 on in, guys. Yeah. Show us your secrets. That's 00:30:19.549 --> 00:30:21.470 an old word, groceries. We should do groceries. 00:30:22.289 --> 00:30:24.309 A word I've never heard before. I've never heard 00:30:24.309 --> 00:30:28.109 it before. Who says that word? I will say, though, 00:30:28.190 --> 00:30:31.230 if aliens did come down. I'd believe it, but 00:30:31.230 --> 00:30:33.569 again, it would be another one of those, yeah, 00:30:33.670 --> 00:30:36.009 that might as well be happening now scenarios. 00:30:36.250 --> 00:30:37.970 Yeah. Like, I wouldn't be surprised. I mean, 00:30:37.970 --> 00:30:39.630 it depends on where they land, because if someone 00:30:39.630 --> 00:30:41.750 tells me aliens have landed in America, I'm just 00:30:41.750 --> 00:30:45.009 going to be like, no way. We are far too armed. 00:30:45.250 --> 00:30:47.309 Aliens aren't stupid. If they can fly across 00:30:47.309 --> 00:30:49.930 the universe, they know enough about our culture 00:30:49.930 --> 00:30:51.970 to know they would be shot on sight. They're 00:30:51.970 --> 00:30:54.670 going to land in a place like Italy or Tibet, 00:30:54.950 --> 00:30:57.589 like somewhere where there's not a lot of guns. 00:30:58.369 --> 00:31:00.170 Don't you think they'd be okay in New England? 00:31:00.529 --> 00:31:02.269 Oh, that's true. They'd be fine in Massachusetts. 00:31:02.630 --> 00:31:05.609 Yeah. If they landed in Massachusetts, we'd be 00:31:05.609 --> 00:31:08.849 like, we'll get you with our wit. Yeah, some 00:31:08.849 --> 00:31:12.349 kid in a scally cap who just handed a tall boy. 00:31:12.730 --> 00:31:17.869 I don't know. Do you like vodka? They can't land 00:31:17.869 --> 00:31:20.670 in Texas or Miami, but in Massachusetts, we'd 00:31:20.670 --> 00:31:24.609 be like, all right, you sure? Yeah. Hey, guy, 00:31:24.670 --> 00:31:29.420 you ever been to Saturn? Hey, guy. We'd be hiding 00:31:29.420 --> 00:31:33.440 my anus joke. We'd be like, ah, your anus. You 00:31:33.440 --> 00:31:39.359 got it. You just hand him a Sam Summer. Like, 00:31:39.400 --> 00:31:42.839 here you go, bud. It's a fucking Sam Summer. 00:31:42.839 --> 00:31:44.500 We all just turn to the Wahlbergs. We're like, 00:31:44.619 --> 00:31:45.759 I don't know. I don't know what to do with it. 00:31:47.099 --> 00:31:48.819 They're like, take me to your leader. And we're 00:31:48.819 --> 00:31:51.839 like, somebody call Mark. We're like, shit, Donnie. 00:31:52.319 --> 00:31:57.390 Donnie. First of all, if they were in Boston 00:31:57.390 --> 00:31:58.529 and they said, take us to your leader, it'd be 00:31:58.529 --> 00:32:01.230 Ken Casey of the Dropkick Murphys, first of all. 00:32:01.250 --> 00:32:05.869 That's true. I feel like that's who that'd be 00:32:05.869 --> 00:32:08.529 the first. Ken shows up. He gets on the red line, 00:32:08.630 --> 00:32:12.549 shows up in Boston. I was just getting a coffee 00:32:12.549 --> 00:32:14.589 at Dunk's. What's going on? All right, guys. 00:32:14.630 --> 00:32:16.970 So that's the episode. Thank you guys so much 00:32:16.970 --> 00:32:19.200 for... For joining us. This was a lot of fun. 00:32:19.279 --> 00:32:20.720 I hope you guys learned something. Thanks for 00:32:20.720 --> 00:32:23.339 having us. I don't think anyone learned anything 00:32:23.339 --> 00:32:28.579 from this, but it was fun nonetheless. Yeah, 00:32:28.579 --> 00:32:32.759 I had fun. Yeah. This was great. Yeah. All right. 00:32:32.779 --> 00:32:34.299 Well, I guess with that out of the way, Jess 00:32:34.299 --> 00:32:36.279 and Janice, do you guys want to, is there anything 00:32:36.279 --> 00:32:38.140 you want to plug anywhere you want people to 00:32:38.140 --> 00:32:42.160 be directed to? I'll let Jess do our plugs. Okay. 00:32:42.440 --> 00:32:46.380 Yeah, we're on all the social media. We do TikTok, 00:32:46.519 --> 00:32:50.220 Instagram, Facebook. We post little clips right 00:32:50.220 --> 00:32:54.279 now. Yeah, come and find us. We're pretty funny. 00:32:54.460 --> 00:32:57.339 And we're at hauntedby on all of them. I was 00:32:57.339 --> 00:33:00.099 going to say, maybe you should put the at. I 00:33:00.099 --> 00:33:03.910 know. No, figure it out, people. And we'll put 00:33:03.910 --> 00:33:07.950 a link to your Instagram in the description, 00:33:08.089 --> 00:33:10.569 too. I feel like they go on vibes. Like, vibe 00:33:10.569 --> 00:33:13.130 it out, man. Go on vibes. Yeah, just go on vibes. 00:33:13.250 --> 00:33:14.589 I mean, that's what the internet did with this 00:33:14.589 --> 00:33:17.250 story, so it's really all about it. You see a 00:33:17.250 --> 00:33:23.230 grainy video of us, keep going. All right. To 00:33:23.230 --> 00:33:27.309 all the analysis you can. I'm pretty sure she's 00:33:27.309 --> 00:33:30.730 from Moz, guy. Yeah. And Sarge, you got anything 00:33:30.730 --> 00:33:32.789 you want to plug while we're here? You can find 00:33:32.789 --> 00:33:36.029 me on the socials, Sarge the Destroyer. I'm everywhere, 00:33:36.130 --> 00:33:37.750 but don't follow me on Twitter because I don't 00:33:37.750 --> 00:33:40.009 even check that shithole anymore. I only keep 00:33:40.009 --> 00:33:43.109 my account so I can say mean things to our government. 00:33:43.390 --> 00:33:45.490 First of all, sorry, it's called X now. Show 00:33:45.490 --> 00:33:47.630 some fucking respect. No, it's called Twitter 00:33:47.630 --> 00:33:51.509 now and no one's calling it X. Elon Musk probably 00:33:51.509 --> 00:33:54.950 isn't even calling it X. No, probably not. No. 00:33:55.710 --> 00:33:59.809 All right. And if you can't find... Either of 00:33:59.809 --> 00:34:02.049 their socials, I'll put them in the episode description. 00:34:03.329 --> 00:34:07.769 Sarge's socials are in the link in our Instagram, 00:34:07.910 --> 00:34:09.690 which you can find at Crypto Cocktail. You can 00:34:09.690 --> 00:34:13.690 find us at TikTok, Crypto Cocktail Party. I really 00:34:13.690 --> 00:34:15.469 don't have anything else to say. I think that's 00:34:15.469 --> 00:34:19.389 kind of it. Normally, at this point in the episode, 00:34:19.690 --> 00:34:22.090 Sarge would say goodbye and I love you, but do 00:34:22.090 --> 00:34:23.590 one of you guys want to say goodbye and I love 00:34:23.590 --> 00:34:25.539 you to the audience? Should we both say it at 00:34:25.539 --> 00:34:27.780 the same time? Or you just can start and then 00:34:27.780 --> 00:34:30.079 I'll end. Goodbye. I love you.
