00:00:03.899 --> 00:00:06.240
You're listening to the Cryptid News Network

00:00:06.240 --> 00:00:12.699
with your anchors, Dave and Sarge the Destroyer.

00:00:14.199 --> 00:00:16.839
Good evening, anyone. Couldn't even get through

00:00:16.839 --> 00:00:19.800
it. Just Sarge, please. Sarge the Destroyer was

00:00:19.800 --> 00:00:24.820
my father. Yeah, for today, Sarge, we're going

00:00:24.820 --> 00:00:27.940
to be the Cryptid News Network. Like I said,

00:00:28.019 --> 00:00:30.539
I had a pretty busy... I didn't say it yet on

00:00:30.539 --> 00:00:32.840
the show, but I said it to you. It's been pretty

00:00:32.840 --> 00:00:35.299
busy the past week or so with like shirts and

00:00:35.299 --> 00:00:37.600
stuff like that. So I didn't get a chance to

00:00:37.600 --> 00:00:39.520
like really sit down and do an episode. But luckily

00:00:39.520 --> 00:00:41.939
for us, Sarge, there's been a bunch of weird

00:00:41.939 --> 00:00:44.939
shit happening lately. Oh, shit. Yes, there is.

00:00:45.020 --> 00:00:46.840
Yeah. So I figured we would do like a little

00:00:46.840 --> 00:00:49.799
I'm going to call this episode CNN Cryptid News

00:00:49.799 --> 00:00:51.640
Network. And we're just going to go over some

00:00:51.640 --> 00:00:54.920
news stories. But before we dive into all that,

00:00:55.020 --> 00:00:57.939
let me just do a real actual intro. Hey, everyone.

00:00:58.060 --> 00:00:59.859
Welcome to Crypto Cocktail Party, a show where

00:00:59.859 --> 00:01:01.320
we have a few drinks, share a few laughs, take

00:01:01.320 --> 00:01:03.719
a dive into the unknown. I am your host, Dave,

00:01:03.820 --> 00:01:06.340
joined as always by my wonderful second host,

00:01:06.519 --> 00:01:08.359
Sarge the Destroyer. I don't want to call you

00:01:08.359 --> 00:01:09.900
co -host anymore. I feel like co -host doesn't

00:01:09.900 --> 00:01:13.700
give you the recognition you deserve. I am your

00:01:13.700 --> 00:01:19.640
also host. Yeah, you're my also host. Hey, everyone.

00:01:20.219 --> 00:01:24.319
How you doing, bud? I was doing well until I

00:01:24.319 --> 00:01:26.859
found out I fucked up the episode before this

00:01:26.859 --> 00:01:29.500
by leaving a minute and a half of silence in

00:01:29.500 --> 00:01:31.180
there. Minute and a half might be a little, I

00:01:31.180 --> 00:01:33.560
might have. Yeah, it was still a long time though.

00:01:33.560 --> 00:01:35.739
I was channeling Depeche Mode apparently. Enjoy

00:01:35.739 --> 00:01:39.219
the silence. I will fix it so that you can actually

00:01:39.219 --> 00:01:43.019
listen to it if you skipped. There was a moment

00:01:43.019 --> 00:01:44.439
where I panicked listening. I was like, oh no,

00:01:44.480 --> 00:01:46.560
he forgot to like. put the episode after the

00:01:46.560 --> 00:01:49.579
intro I don't know what the fuck happened I mean

00:01:49.579 --> 00:01:54.040
it took me a long time because I was like cutting

00:01:54.040 --> 00:01:57.439
out a bunch of bullshit that I put in there so

00:01:57.439 --> 00:02:00.659
not that I put in there but I was like a lot

00:02:00.659 --> 00:02:02.719
of vocal tics and annoying things and so it took

00:02:02.719 --> 00:02:07.299
me about four hours I feel like to edit which

00:02:07.299 --> 00:02:09.659
is why you don't record at 8 o 'clock at night

00:02:09.659 --> 00:02:12.020
because I didn't finish until well after midnight

00:02:12.020 --> 00:02:15.189
I got your text When I woke up the next morning,

00:02:15.250 --> 00:02:17.530
it was like 1245. And you're like, well, it's

00:02:17.530 --> 00:02:18.930
all done and up. I'm like, all right, cool, man.

00:02:19.530 --> 00:02:22.370
Yeah. Yeah. It was a little rough. And that's

00:02:22.370 --> 00:02:25.550
what happens when you use your hyper fixation

00:02:25.550 --> 00:02:29.250
to do a podcast episode. I mean, isn't that what

00:02:29.250 --> 00:02:31.629
all, I mean, not all podcasts, most of them are

00:02:31.629 --> 00:02:37.289
just about hitting women, but a good majority

00:02:37.289 --> 00:02:40.050
of podcasts, I feel like are just people going

00:02:40.050 --> 00:02:43.400
on for hours about their hyper fixation. yes

00:02:43.400 --> 00:02:45.699
yes i wouldn't say this what this one is but

00:02:45.699 --> 00:02:47.840
it's close to it i feel like it's close yeah

00:02:47.840 --> 00:02:50.919
i like weird so this is right up my alley but

00:02:50.919 --> 00:02:52.759
i also have other interests okay cryptas aren't

00:02:52.759 --> 00:02:57.319
just who i am personality wise no no but you're

00:02:57.319 --> 00:02:59.560
doing good i'm glad you're doing good i'm doing

00:02:59.560 --> 00:03:01.419
great how are you doing you must be exhausted

00:03:01.419 --> 00:03:03.599
packing up all those t -shirts i'm wearing mine

00:03:03.599 --> 00:03:06.659
yeah they came out really good i mean i guess

00:03:06.659 --> 00:03:09.080
so i'm very happy with mine uh the company we

00:03:09.080 --> 00:03:12.210
used uh lehigh valley apparel company or something

00:03:12.210 --> 00:03:14.270
like that i forget what yeah it's lehigh valley

00:03:14.270 --> 00:03:16.590
apparel uh they did an awesome job they're a

00:03:16.590 --> 00:03:19.389
local business i've gone through them obviously

00:03:19.389 --> 00:03:22.610
why not uh but yeah so far as far as i know everyone

00:03:22.610 --> 00:03:24.729
most all of them have been delivered and no one

00:03:24.729 --> 00:03:28.099
has had a problem with him yet so It's awesome.

00:03:28.219 --> 00:03:32.460
And we were able to raise $2 ,917 for the Defending

00:03:32.460 --> 00:03:34.680
Our Neighbors Fund, which is fucking wild. Absolutely

00:03:34.680 --> 00:03:36.659
incredible. So thank you to everyone who ordered

00:03:36.659 --> 00:03:41.939
a t -shirt. Thank you to everyone who put 10

00:03:41.939 --> 00:03:43.939
toes down and wanted to put their names on the

00:03:43.939 --> 00:03:46.340
shirt because without them, it also could have

00:03:46.340 --> 00:03:48.719
been possible. But yeah, it's awesome. Thank

00:03:48.719 --> 00:03:52.360
you so much, everyone. Sarge. What's up? You

00:03:52.360 --> 00:03:55.180
ready to get in some fucking news, dude? Yes.

00:03:55.849 --> 00:03:58.530
Hell yeah. Some of these are just like random

00:03:58.530 --> 00:04:00.349
shit that I came across. Others are not, but

00:04:00.349 --> 00:04:03.210
we got to get back into the, we got to get back

00:04:03.210 --> 00:04:06.810
into the news, the news mindset. Agreed. All

00:04:06.810 --> 00:04:10.689
right. Might be hard for us. What were you saying?

00:04:10.990 --> 00:04:13.169
I was going to say it might be hard for us because

00:04:13.169 --> 00:04:15.169
we don't have a corporate, corporate overlord

00:04:15.169 --> 00:04:18.370
telling us to slob the president's knob the entire

00:04:18.370 --> 00:04:20.529
time. Oh, we can work that in somewhere. Okay.

00:04:21.290 --> 00:04:25.529
FCC, go fuck yourself. In Northeast Ohio, a series

00:04:25.529 --> 00:04:27.509
of reported Bigfoot sightings has drawn sustained

00:04:27.509 --> 00:04:29.709
attention from residents and local authorities

00:04:29.709 --> 00:04:32.209
after multiple individuals in Portage County

00:04:32.209 --> 00:04:34.310
described encounters with a large, unidentified

00:04:34.310 --> 00:04:36.689
figure moving through the wooded and semi -rural

00:04:36.689 --> 00:04:41.170
areas. First reports began around... Fuck. I'm

00:04:41.170 --> 00:04:45.350
going to stop doing the news thing. I really

00:04:45.350 --> 00:04:47.970
wanted to. I tried. It's not going to happen.

00:04:48.550 --> 00:04:52.649
I'm Ron Burgundy. Yeah, pretty much. Sorry. So

00:04:52.649 --> 00:04:55.230
in Northeast Ohio, a series of reported Bigfoot

00:04:55.230 --> 00:04:57.430
sightings has drawn sustained attention from

00:04:57.430 --> 00:04:59.730
residents and local authorities after multiple

00:04:59.730 --> 00:05:02.290
individuals in Portage County described encounters

00:05:02.290 --> 00:05:05.089
with a large, unidentified figure moving through

00:05:05.089 --> 00:05:08.329
the wooded and the semi -rural areas. The first

00:05:08.329 --> 00:05:11.149
reports began appearing in early March 2026,

00:05:11.430 --> 00:05:13.730
and they were initially posted in local community

00:05:13.730 --> 00:05:17.110
forums, I'm assuming like next door. because

00:05:17.110 --> 00:05:18.910
where else would you post something like that

00:05:18.910 --> 00:05:22.410
um and then what started as like a single account

00:05:22.410 --> 00:05:25.730
it pretty much it gained traction pretty quickly

00:05:25.730 --> 00:05:28.069
as additional residents came forward describing

00:05:28.069 --> 00:05:31.470
similar experiences within just like a couple

00:05:31.470 --> 00:05:33.269
of days and then by midweek there was at least

00:05:33.269 --> 00:05:36.810
around 10 separate sightings that had been documented

00:05:36.810 --> 00:05:39.810
across like the same general region uh witnesses

00:05:39.810 --> 00:05:43.240
descriptions They're pretty consistent. Individuals

00:05:43.240 --> 00:05:45.839
report seeing a tall, upright figure. It's estimated

00:05:45.839 --> 00:05:48.079
to stand anywhere between 7 and 10 feet tall,

00:05:48.220 --> 00:05:50.620
covered in dark hair, and moving quickly through

00:05:50.620 --> 00:05:54.699
the woods. It's Bigfoot, so it's always at the

00:05:54.699 --> 00:05:58.079
very edge of visibility. Right, right, of course.

00:05:58.399 --> 00:06:01.800
Several witnesses emphasized the speed of the

00:06:01.800 --> 00:06:04.120
figure, with one stating that it, quote, cleared

00:06:04.120 --> 00:06:06.220
the tree line faster than anything that size

00:06:06.220 --> 00:06:09.129
should be able to, end quote. And then in multiple

00:06:09.129 --> 00:06:10.769
accounts, there was the presence of a strong

00:06:10.769 --> 00:06:14.370
odor either immediately before or during the

00:06:14.370 --> 00:06:16.709
sighting. Descriptions of the smell vary slightly,

00:06:16.829 --> 00:06:18.689
but commonly included comparisons to rotting

00:06:18.689 --> 00:06:22.730
garbage, decaying organic material or a wet animal.

00:06:23.129 --> 00:06:27.170
Some residents reported noticing the smell before

00:06:27.170 --> 00:06:29.430
seeing anything, which I feel like is kind of

00:06:29.430 --> 00:06:33.129
like that standard Bigfoot. Yeah, kind of right.

00:06:33.149 --> 00:06:34.810
Yeah, you always smell it before you see it.

00:06:37.040 --> 00:06:40.720
The name of my erotic novel. We're going back

00:06:40.720 --> 00:06:43.420
to that now. All right. No, you had a better

00:06:43.420 --> 00:06:46.920
one. What was it? No, I thought that was it.

00:06:47.019 --> 00:06:48.379
I thought there was. Wasn't it? I thought there

00:06:48.379 --> 00:06:54.639
was another one. I don't remember now. Name of

00:06:54.639 --> 00:06:57.240
my erotic celebrity fan fiction. There we go.

00:07:00.860 --> 00:07:03.160
Reports have been concentrated in areas where

00:07:03.160 --> 00:07:05.459
wooded land meets like residential areas. It's

00:07:05.459 --> 00:07:08.319
like walking trails, backyards, roadside tree

00:07:08.319 --> 00:07:10.680
lines. And then several individuals stated that

00:07:10.680 --> 00:07:12.480
the encounters occurred during early morning

00:07:12.480 --> 00:07:15.279
or evening hours when the visibility is reduced,

00:07:15.399 --> 00:07:17.319
but activity in the area is like pretty high.

00:07:17.399 --> 00:07:19.519
You're like your morning commute and then your

00:07:19.519 --> 00:07:24.360
commute home. Local law enforcement confirmed

00:07:24.360 --> 00:07:26.220
that they had received multiple calls recording

00:07:26.220 --> 00:07:28.620
the sightings. The Portage County Sheriff's Office

00:07:28.620 --> 00:07:30.439
acknowledged the situation publicly, stating,

00:07:30.579 --> 00:07:33.600
quote, we have received calls recording regarding

00:07:33.600 --> 00:07:37.160
a possible Bigfoot sighting, end quote. And then

00:07:37.160 --> 00:07:39.899
shortly after acknowledging the reports, the

00:07:39.899 --> 00:07:42.120
department posted a series of tongue -in -cheek

00:07:42.120 --> 00:07:45.579
updates on social media, including one stating

00:07:45.579 --> 00:07:48.160
that Bigfoot had been, quote, located, questioned,

00:07:48.259 --> 00:07:52.759
and released. And another... It turned out it

00:07:52.759 --> 00:07:55.040
was just the cast of the Drew Carey show. Yeah,

00:07:55.120 --> 00:07:58.980
and another indicated that the creature was no

00:07:58.980 --> 00:08:02.779
longer in custody. So, I mean, that's good. You

00:08:02.779 --> 00:08:06.660
know, it's profiling at this point. This is my

00:08:06.660 --> 00:08:09.279
kind of story. It's all dark and hairy, just

00:08:09.279 --> 00:08:12.180
the way I like them. Name of my erotic novel.

00:08:12.540 --> 00:08:17.579
Boom. All right. Now, despite the volume of reports,

00:08:18.780 --> 00:08:21.360
There is no physical evidence, footprints, photographs

00:08:21.360 --> 00:08:23.459
or video. Nothing like that has ever been has

00:08:23.459 --> 00:08:26.000
been like officially verified. Authorities have

00:08:26.000 --> 00:08:28.079
not announced any formal investigation beyond

00:08:28.079 --> 00:08:30.800
responding to like those initial calls. And at

00:08:30.800 --> 00:08:32.480
this time, sightings continue to be discussed

00:08:32.480 --> 00:08:34.100
within the community with residents remaining

00:08:34.100 --> 00:08:37.320
alert and additional reports still circulating

00:08:37.320 --> 00:08:40.379
online. So that's that's our first story is the

00:08:40.379 --> 00:08:43.220
Ohio Bigfoot flap. I guess you want to call it.

00:08:43.240 --> 00:08:45.659
I don't know what you. But, you know, have you

00:08:45.659 --> 00:08:47.240
heard? Did you hear about this at all? I did

00:08:47.240 --> 00:08:53.940
hear about it. I don't believe it because Bigfoot's

00:08:53.940 --> 00:08:58.799
not real. So, I mean, but also, oh, you weren't

00:08:58.799 --> 00:09:02.919
on that episode. Me and Brennan Storr from the

00:09:02.919 --> 00:09:05.159
Ghost Story guys, when he came on, when you were

00:09:05.159 --> 00:09:09.779
in Puerto Rico, we did Bigfoot just so I could

00:09:09.779 --> 00:09:12.789
get this fuck over with. Just be like, we did

00:09:12.789 --> 00:09:16.190
it. All right. But there is an Ohio version of

00:09:16.190 --> 00:09:18.929
it called the Ohio Grassman. And I don't know

00:09:18.929 --> 00:09:22.129
if this is different, like if Bigfoot is different

00:09:22.129 --> 00:09:24.450
than the Ohio Grassman, because the Ohio Grassman

00:09:24.450 --> 00:09:27.889
is just a Bigfoot from Ohio. It sounds like a

00:09:27.889 --> 00:09:35.549
1960s drug dealer. The Ohio Grassman? I mean,

00:09:35.570 --> 00:09:38.090
yeah. Wearing a Bears jersey, just shelling out

00:09:38.090 --> 00:09:43.019
dime bags. A Bears jersey? That's Chicago. Yeah,

00:09:43.080 --> 00:09:44.980
but no one wants to admit they're a Browns fan.

00:09:45.679 --> 00:09:48.059
And the Bengals haven't been relevant in decades.

00:09:48.740 --> 00:09:51.960
I'm pretty sure our good friends over in Believing

00:09:51.960 --> 00:09:54.980
the Bizarre would beg to differ about that. No,

00:09:55.080 --> 00:09:57.879
I just completely fucked up. I mixed up the Cleveland

00:09:57.879 --> 00:10:01.080
Browns with the Chicago Bears. That's fine. My

00:10:01.080 --> 00:10:05.700
theory, this Bigfoot sighting, it's just Tyler

00:10:05.700 --> 00:10:15.620
and Charlie on each other's shoulders. Wearing

00:10:15.620 --> 00:10:18.179
like a furry ghillie suit kind of thing. That

00:10:18.179 --> 00:10:22.519
could be what it is. Are we sure Bigfoot isn't

00:10:22.519 --> 00:10:26.000
just two podcasters wearing a trench coat? At

00:10:26.000 --> 00:10:27.799
this point, you're probably fucking this, dude.

00:10:30.399 --> 00:10:32.080
All right, you ready to move on to our next story?

00:10:32.240 --> 00:10:35.179
So this one's kind of cool. This one, I didn't

00:10:35.179 --> 00:10:36.639
even know. I literally just found this today.

00:10:37.549 --> 00:10:40.529
So across the United States, a newly circulated

00:10:40.529 --> 00:10:42.610
report attempting to quantify the likelihood

00:10:42.610 --> 00:10:45.820
of alien abductions. has generated widespread

00:10:45.820 --> 00:10:48.799
attention after presenting what it calls, quote,

00:10:48.879 --> 00:10:52.259
alien abduction odds index. So this is like your

00:10:52.259 --> 00:10:56.200
odds of being abducted. The report compiles more

00:10:56.200 --> 00:10:59.100
than 150 ,000 UFO sightings collected over time,

00:10:59.259 --> 00:11:01.340
drawing from databases such as the National UFO

00:11:01.340 --> 00:11:03.500
Reporting Center, and combines that information

00:11:03.500 --> 00:11:06.179
with population data and reporting patterns.

00:11:06.360 --> 00:11:09.970
The goal... According to the researchers is to

00:11:09.970 --> 00:11:13.070
identify geographic trends and how often abduction

00:11:13.070 --> 00:11:15.669
style encounters are reported. And then rather

00:11:15.669 --> 00:11:17.870
than focusing on like solely on like sightings

00:11:17.870 --> 00:11:20.429
of unidentified objects, the analysis specifically

00:11:20.429 --> 00:11:23.309
examines reports that include details commonly

00:11:23.309 --> 00:11:26.990
associated with like abduction claims. These

00:11:26.990 --> 00:11:29.090
include descriptions of missing time, physical

00:11:29.090 --> 00:11:31.710
interaction with non -human entities, recurring

00:11:31.710 --> 00:11:35.149
encounters, and unexplained after effects. Researchers

00:11:35.149 --> 00:11:37.309
behind the report emphasized that the findings

00:11:37.309 --> 00:11:39.509
are not predictive in nature, which is good.

00:11:40.389 --> 00:11:43.509
They just said that, quote, the implied probability

00:11:43.509 --> 00:11:47.110
is not a prediction. So don't worry about it.

00:11:47.149 --> 00:11:51.389
It's just a probability. You're probably going

00:11:51.389 --> 00:11:53.909
to be able to bet on it on Polymarket soon, so

00:11:53.909 --> 00:11:59.389
that's kind of cool. Instead, the rankings reflect

00:11:59.389 --> 00:12:01.649
how frequently these types of reports appear

00:12:01.649 --> 00:12:04.769
relative to population size and reporting density.

00:12:05.309 --> 00:12:08.470
In the northeastern United States, where we happen

00:12:08.470 --> 00:12:11.129
to be, several states stand out prominently.

00:12:11.330 --> 00:12:15.769
New Hampshire ranks highest overall with approximately

00:12:15.769 --> 00:12:19.690
24 .34 reported sightings per 100 ,000 residents,

00:12:20.070 --> 00:12:22.750
making it the most statistically active state

00:12:22.750 --> 00:12:27.330
in the data set. Massachusetts, while not ranked

00:12:27.330 --> 00:12:31.230
at the very top in this index, it does hold significance

00:12:31.230 --> 00:12:34.549
due to its history of large -scale sighting events.

00:12:35.429 --> 00:12:37.470
There's pretty consistent reports coming out

00:12:37.470 --> 00:12:41.350
from Massachusetts. Pennsylvania remains among

00:12:41.350 --> 00:12:43.230
the states with the highest total volume of UFO

00:12:43.230 --> 00:12:45.389
sightings nationwide, placing it within a broader

00:12:45.389 --> 00:12:47.889
regional cluster of activity that includes all

00:12:47.889 --> 00:12:52.000
the neighboring states. Okay. Researchers noted

00:12:52.000 --> 00:12:55.220
that geographic patterns appear to repeat across

00:12:55.220 --> 00:12:57.860
data set stating, quote, the same state keeps

00:12:57.860 --> 00:13:05.679
showing up, which is New Hampshire. The report

00:13:05.679 --> 00:13:08.259
also assigns estimated statistical odds of the

00:13:08.259 --> 00:13:10.710
likelihood of being abduction based on. reported

00:13:10.710 --> 00:13:13.330
frequency in some reason region these odds fall

00:13:13.330 --> 00:13:15.870
within the range of one in several thousand though

00:13:15.870 --> 00:13:17.529
the researchers reiterate that these figures

00:13:17.529 --> 00:13:19.769
are derived entirely from reported experiences

00:13:19.769 --> 00:13:24.090
rather than confirmed incidents and now obviously

00:13:24.090 --> 00:13:26.509
while the methodology has not been formally validated

00:13:26.509 --> 00:13:29.409
by the scientific community the report would

00:13:29.409 --> 00:13:31.590
be tough to do yeah the report has been widely

00:13:31.590 --> 00:13:34.429
shared and discussed contributing to like a broader

00:13:34.429 --> 00:13:37.690
trend of analyzing paranormal claims Through

00:13:37.690 --> 00:13:40.210
these like kind of frameworks that they're using.

00:13:40.870 --> 00:13:43.850
At this time, no official organization recognizes

00:13:43.850 --> 00:13:46.149
these rankings as evidence of actual abduction

00:13:46.149 --> 00:13:49.210
risk. However, the framing of such claims in

00:13:49.210 --> 00:13:52.129
like quantitative terms has added a new dimension

00:13:52.129 --> 00:13:54.269
to how these reports are being interpreted and

00:13:54.269 --> 00:13:57.710
discussed. I believe New York. Let me find it

00:13:57.710 --> 00:14:01.909
real quick. I think New York was like crazy high

00:14:01.909 --> 00:14:04.909
on the list. That wouldn't surprise me all that

00:14:04.909 --> 00:14:07.289
much because New York's got a lot of open space.

00:14:07.509 --> 00:14:09.350
Like everybody thinks of New York as just New

00:14:09.350 --> 00:14:13.490
York City, but upstate New York is insane how

00:14:13.490 --> 00:14:18.289
vast it is. Yeah. New York ranks among the top

00:14:18.289 --> 00:14:22.789
three states in the country. Jesus. Yeah. So

00:14:22.789 --> 00:14:25.529
basically it's New Hampshire, New York, and then

00:14:25.529 --> 00:14:27.929
who the fuck knows? I don't see it on here, but

00:14:27.929 --> 00:14:29.909
yeah. West Virginia or something. I think it's

00:14:29.909 --> 00:14:31.809
fun that someone took the time to do all this.

00:14:32.320 --> 00:14:34.460
I think it's awesome. Yeah, right. It's really

00:14:34.460 --> 00:14:37.019
awesome. That's a lot. And it keeps it's very

00:14:37.019 --> 00:14:39.940
in line with like how I feel about New Hampshire.

00:14:40.340 --> 00:14:42.659
I was on threads the other day and somebody was

00:14:42.659 --> 00:14:45.100
like, yeah, New Hampshire is New England's cool

00:14:45.100 --> 00:14:47.940
uncle. And I was like, or it's the uncle that

00:14:47.940 --> 00:14:49.779
gives you a bunch of beer when you're 16 and

00:14:49.779 --> 00:14:51.840
starts talking to you about chemtrails. You know

00:14:51.840 --> 00:14:53.820
what I mean? Yeah. Like that's the vibe New Hampshire

00:14:53.820 --> 00:14:56.360
gives off. That is for sure a New Hampshire vibe.

00:14:56.580 --> 00:15:00.500
I've ever heard one before. Like the government's

00:15:00.500 --> 00:15:03.039
trying to take your guns, but also aliens are

00:15:03.039 --> 00:15:05.159
going to take you. I'll, I'll try and find like

00:15:05.159 --> 00:15:06.659
an update on this. Cause like I said, I didn't

00:15:06.659 --> 00:15:09.840
like, I didn't go through state by state. Right.

00:15:10.019 --> 00:15:11.419
So I'll try to find out where like where New

00:15:11.419 --> 00:15:13.080
Hampshire, where Massachusetts actually sits

00:15:13.080 --> 00:15:15.159
on it. Cause I don't know if they did all 50.

00:15:15.179 --> 00:15:17.179
I think they might've just been like, these are

00:15:17.179 --> 00:15:19.220
the top. And then everything else is just kind

00:15:19.220 --> 00:15:21.240
of like by region of the country instead of like

00:15:21.240 --> 00:15:23.899
by states individually. But yeah. So if you live

00:15:23.899 --> 00:15:25.559
in New Hampshire. I found a weird database a

00:15:25.559 --> 00:15:31.799
long time ago. that had alien UFO sightings.

00:15:32.960 --> 00:15:35.899
And the neighborhood that I live in actually

00:15:35.899 --> 00:15:38.179
showed up a number of times, more times than

00:15:38.179 --> 00:15:39.960
I felt comfortable with, given that this is a

00:15:39.960 --> 00:15:44.460
national database. You know, it's just one person.

00:15:45.240 --> 00:15:48.460
It could be. It could be. There's a big park

00:15:48.460 --> 00:15:53.110
near my house and multiple sightings. happen

00:15:53.110 --> 00:15:56.250
in this park of UFO activity. Just the UFOs.

00:15:56.250 --> 00:16:00.049
No reported abductions in this town. I guess

00:16:00.049 --> 00:16:02.070
we're like a flyover area when they're going

00:16:02.070 --> 00:16:05.850
up to New Hampshire to collect. Massachusetts

00:16:05.850 --> 00:16:13.789
is the Midwest of... But so basically they go

00:16:13.789 --> 00:16:16.710
from New York and then Massachusetts is the flyover

00:16:16.710 --> 00:16:19.490
state as it gets to. Got it. Got it. Got it.

00:16:19.509 --> 00:16:21.110
Exactly. I mean, that makes sense. I get it.

00:16:21.129 --> 00:16:22.830
Yeah. Plus Massachusetts. Yeah. Depending on

00:16:22.830 --> 00:16:24.049
how you look at it, it's kind of like a runway.

00:16:24.129 --> 00:16:25.470
They probably just go straight across the middle,

00:16:25.529 --> 00:16:27.970
like just straight down. Exactly. I like it.

00:16:27.990 --> 00:16:31.309
I like that theory a lot. I guess my aunt on

00:16:31.309 --> 00:16:35.029
my dad's side had not an abduction situation,

00:16:35.309 --> 00:16:42.230
but her car was followed by a UFO. Okay. She

00:16:42.230 --> 00:16:45.529
reported that the car completely died and the

00:16:45.529 --> 00:16:47.809
UFO flew over. I feel like that's super common

00:16:47.809 --> 00:16:52.070
in UFO. Yes. Either your battery dies or everything

00:16:52.070 --> 00:16:54.269
just starts going haywire inside. Your electronics

00:16:54.269 --> 00:16:57.289
get all fucked up. I can't remember exactly where

00:16:57.289 --> 00:16:59.970
my father said she was, but I feel like she was

00:16:59.970 --> 00:17:05.019
actually driving in New Hampshire. Goddamn, dude.

00:17:05.059 --> 00:17:09.259
My state is a nightmare, dude. I love New Hampshire.

00:17:09.619 --> 00:17:12.460
It's one of my favorite places to go, but I wouldn't

00:17:12.460 --> 00:17:14.539
want to live there because I'm going to get abducted.

00:17:14.740 --> 00:17:17.799
See, what's weird is that I grew up in New Hampshire,

00:17:17.859 --> 00:17:21.779
obviously. I was there for 30 plus years. I never

00:17:21.779 --> 00:17:23.599
had, I never saw you, dude. I've never even seen

00:17:23.599 --> 00:17:25.819
a fucking shooting star. All right. Let alone

00:17:25.819 --> 00:17:28.119
a UFO. You've never seen a shooting star. I know

00:17:28.119 --> 00:17:30.400
my life isn't filled with whimsy. Okay. It sucks.

00:17:30.579 --> 00:17:33.519
Okay. All right. But I live like 20 miles outside

00:17:33.519 --> 00:17:35.920
of Boston. I see him all the time. Yeah. I haven't

00:17:35.920 --> 00:17:37.799
seen it. It's probably just space trash. Now

00:17:37.799 --> 00:17:39.000
that I think about it. Yeah. You're probably

00:17:39.000 --> 00:17:41.460
just seeing parts of fucking SpaceX rockets.

00:17:44.299 --> 00:17:46.599
but no like i i've never had a i've never seen

00:17:46.599 --> 00:17:49.640
a ufo like my buddy justin uh co -host of the

00:17:49.640 --> 00:17:51.960
cool parents podcast he's seen like you mean

00:17:51.960 --> 00:17:54.059
like he has a really cool one i'm not gonna share

00:17:54.059 --> 00:17:56.940
it because it's not my story to share but like

00:17:56.940 --> 00:17:58.559
every i mean i know a few people who've had one

00:17:58.559 --> 00:18:00.380
i'm like what the fuck man like you guys aren't

00:18:00.380 --> 00:18:02.319
even that really into it why why i think you

00:18:02.319 --> 00:18:03.740
know what it is heartbreaking it's just like

00:18:03.740 --> 00:18:06.180
how henry zabrowski always says he's never it's

00:18:06.180 --> 00:18:08.529
because i want it too bad It's the same reason

00:18:08.529 --> 00:18:10.849
why I've never seen a ghost. It's because I want

00:18:10.849 --> 00:18:12.849
it too bad. You want it too bad, yeah. You're

00:18:12.849 --> 00:18:16.910
not going to see it. Yeah, it sucks. It's a bummer,

00:18:16.910 --> 00:18:20.390
man. I thought I saw one in Iraq, but I'm pretty

00:18:20.390 --> 00:18:22.569
confident it was just a drone. A ghost or a UFO?

00:18:23.130 --> 00:18:26.170
No, I thought I saw a UFO, but I'm pretty sure

00:18:26.170 --> 00:18:29.690
it was just a drone. Probably. I was also sleep

00:18:29.690 --> 00:18:32.569
-deprived at that point. When you were there,

00:18:32.630 --> 00:18:37.059
were drones what they are now? No, I mean, they

00:18:37.059 --> 00:18:39.500
weren't as advanced as they are now, but we had

00:18:39.500 --> 00:18:44.119
drones. We had like, you know, we had something

00:18:44.119 --> 00:18:46.119
called a Scan Eagle. It was like a little airplane.

00:18:46.480 --> 00:18:49.140
Oh, yeah. No, you know what we did? I remember

00:18:49.140 --> 00:18:53.200
now because Obama kept blowing up weddings. I

00:18:53.200 --> 00:18:58.819
remember that. Yeah, we had those and they all

00:18:58.819 --> 00:19:00.319
looked like little airplanes. I don't think we

00:19:00.319 --> 00:19:03.309
had like the quadcopter ones. all the ones that

00:19:03.309 --> 00:19:05.269
i saw were like they're called like ravens or

00:19:05.269 --> 00:19:07.269
scan eagles they're little little tiny drones

00:19:07.269 --> 00:19:09.089
and then of course we had the predators and all

00:19:09.089 --> 00:19:11.349
that big shit i feel like the quad ones are those

00:19:11.349 --> 00:19:14.730
are like the ones where like you see like footage

00:19:14.730 --> 00:19:17.150
from them and it's like they'll fly into a house

00:19:17.150 --> 00:19:18.849
and they'll look like a terrorist right in the

00:19:18.849 --> 00:19:20.769
face then fucking explode i'm like that's the

00:19:20.769 --> 00:19:24.869
most terrifying dude like that is not cool like

00:19:24.869 --> 00:19:28.319
that's Too much. It's too much. Because when

00:19:28.319 --> 00:19:30.279
you see that, you're like, oh, fuck. You know

00:19:30.279 --> 00:19:32.680
it's coming. You see the look of terror on their

00:19:32.680 --> 00:19:34.240
face, and you're like, I don't like this. No,

00:19:34.240 --> 00:19:36.200
dude. I don't want this at all. Yeah, because

00:19:36.200 --> 00:19:37.440
what are you going to do? It's like stepping

00:19:37.440 --> 00:19:39.740
on a landmine. Once you hear that click, you're

00:19:39.740 --> 00:19:41.940
like, well, it's over. It's either I'm dead or

00:19:41.940 --> 00:19:44.519
half my body's gone, and I'm walking on my hands

00:19:44.519 --> 00:19:47.119
from now on. Exactly. I'm not trying to deal

00:19:47.119 --> 00:19:50.579
with that. Yeah, so anyways, UFOs, they might

00:19:50.579 --> 00:19:53.099
abduct you. Look out for betting odds on Polymarket

00:19:53.099 --> 00:20:00.779
soon. Our next story, a controversial claim suggesting

00:20:00.779 --> 00:20:03.680
that extraterrestrial influence may be present

00:20:03.680 --> 00:20:07.000
within human DNA has gained renewed traction

00:20:07.000 --> 00:20:09.339
online following the circulation of a research

00:20:09.339 --> 00:20:11.599
theory proposing that certain genetic sequences

00:20:11.599 --> 00:20:15.220
may have been artificially introduced. It's the

00:20:15.220 --> 00:20:17.599
fucking vaccines, dude. Come on. It's the vaccines.

00:20:17.619 --> 00:20:20.279
It's the vaccines. Go ahead. Jesus. The claim

00:20:20.279 --> 00:20:22.500
focuses on the observation that some traits and

00:20:22.500 --> 00:20:24.640
genetic markers do not always follow expected

00:20:24.640 --> 00:20:27.259
patterns of inheritance. According to these,

00:20:27.440 --> 00:20:29.920
sorry, according to those promoting the theory.

00:20:30.700 --> 00:20:32.799
These irregularities raise questions about how

00:20:32.799 --> 00:20:35.359
specific sequences originated, leading to the

00:20:35.359 --> 00:20:39.160
suggestion that external intervention may have

00:20:39.160 --> 00:20:41.339
played a role. I already don't like this. I'm

00:20:41.339 --> 00:20:43.180
going to stop for a second because it reminds

00:20:43.180 --> 00:20:45.400
me too much of ancient aliens. And I fucking

00:20:45.400 --> 00:20:48.740
hate ancient aliens because it just whitewashes.

00:20:49.420 --> 00:20:54.170
Yep. It does. These primitives are too stupid

00:20:54.170 --> 00:20:58.390
to make a pyramid. Yeah, I hate it so much. Again,

00:20:59.549 --> 00:21:01.730
this is just news in the world that we live in.

00:21:02.009 --> 00:21:03.369
I don't mean like the world. Well, obviously

00:21:03.369 --> 00:21:04.650
it's in our world, but I mean like the paranormal

00:21:04.650 --> 00:21:08.289
world. Nobody tell RFK this or he's going to

00:21:08.289 --> 00:21:13.009
start building different kinds of camps. The

00:21:13.009 --> 00:21:15.410
researchers argue that certain genetic features

00:21:15.410 --> 00:21:18.569
appear without a clearly traceable lineage, prompting

00:21:18.569 --> 00:21:21.109
speculation that these sequences could have been

00:21:21.109 --> 00:21:23.549
inserted at some point in human development.

00:21:23.650 --> 00:21:25.769
The theory frames that these anomalies as potential

00:21:25.769 --> 00:21:29.609
evidence of deliberate modification by non -human

00:21:29.609 --> 00:21:32.470
intelligence. Despite the attention it has received,

00:21:32.589 --> 00:21:34.970
this research, again, has not undergone peer

00:21:34.970 --> 00:21:38.089
review and no major scientific institution has

00:21:38.089 --> 00:21:42.890
endorsed it or corroborated any of it. Genetic

00:21:42.890 --> 00:21:47.549
experts have noted that variations in DNA expression,

00:21:47.829 --> 00:21:51.569
mutation, and recombination are well -established

00:21:51.569 --> 00:21:53.930
phenomena that can account for unexpected traits

00:21:53.930 --> 00:21:57.349
obviously without extraterrestrial influence.

00:21:57.869 --> 00:22:01.380
But again, Anytime something like this happens,

00:22:01.500 --> 00:22:05.200
it's always spread online frequently. Oh, of

00:22:05.200 --> 00:22:07.740
course. Yeah, of course. There is nothing the

00:22:07.740 --> 00:22:10.220
media likes more than to read like a footnote

00:22:10.220 --> 00:22:12.819
in a research paper and turn it into an entire

00:22:12.819 --> 00:22:15.500
article. Well, you're bold assumption that I

00:22:15.500 --> 00:22:19.359
got any of this from mainstream media. That just

00:22:19.359 --> 00:22:24.319
means it's way worse. They don't have to fact

00:22:24.319 --> 00:22:27.750
check shit. Every website you checked was probably

00:22:27.750 --> 00:22:30.490
like green font and a black background. Yeah,

00:22:30.490 --> 00:22:32.470
dude. And trying to read that after drinking

00:22:32.470 --> 00:22:36.670
a bunch of fucking soju. Nice. Yeah. We went

00:22:36.670 --> 00:22:39.450
to a Japanese place for brunch. It's fucking

00:22:39.450 --> 00:22:43.269
delicious, dude. I'm jealous. I don't have a

00:22:43.269 --> 00:22:46.190
lot of good brunch places near me, buddy. All

00:22:46.190 --> 00:22:49.009
right. So anyways, back to this bullshit story.

00:22:49.589 --> 00:22:51.970
The idea that extraterrestrial beings may have

00:22:51.970 --> 00:22:53.630
influenced human evolution has been presented

00:22:53.630 --> 00:22:57.769
in various forms for. A long fucking time. However,

00:22:57.910 --> 00:22:59.950
the framing of the concept in terms of modern

00:22:59.950 --> 00:23:01.970
genetic research has allowed it to reach new

00:23:01.970 --> 00:23:04.170
audiences and reenter the public conversation

00:23:04.170 --> 00:23:06.430
in a different context. Not really, though. It's

00:23:06.430 --> 00:23:08.049
the same context. It's just now that we live

00:23:08.049 --> 00:23:09.890
in a world where this could be possible, but

00:23:09.890 --> 00:23:13.130
more so human internet. What was that thing?

00:23:13.470 --> 00:23:15.849
I don't want to say blue sky. Where you could

00:23:15.849 --> 00:23:18.670
just change the DNA of your baby. You know what

00:23:18.670 --> 00:23:21.109
I'm talking about? You want blue -eyed babies?

00:23:21.390 --> 00:23:23.079
We'll give you blue -eyed babies. What was that?

00:23:23.140 --> 00:23:26.180
CRISPR? Was it CRISPR? CRISPR, yep. Gene editing.

00:23:26.480 --> 00:23:29.240
Yeah. Dude, the fact that you could just do that.

00:23:30.059 --> 00:23:34.839
Not okay. I mean, here's the thing. Sure, I would

00:23:34.839 --> 00:23:37.960
have liked to have been taller, but I'm not comfortable

00:23:37.960 --> 00:23:43.420
because what did you do? to my dna that i don't

00:23:43.420 --> 00:23:45.259
know about because like the way i looked at it

00:23:45.259 --> 00:23:47.319
is like but also this is like they did this shit

00:23:47.319 --> 00:23:49.200
like in their fucking garage dude like this wasn't

00:23:49.200 --> 00:23:51.900
like yeah like it wasn't like a lab like these

00:23:51.900 --> 00:23:54.400
motherfuckers were just doing this yeah but i'm

00:23:54.400 --> 00:23:57.480
saying like if you change one piece of the dna

00:23:57.480 --> 00:24:01.980
will that have a cascade effect like if they

00:24:01.980 --> 00:24:04.180
make you taller is it also gonna make like one

00:24:04.180 --> 00:24:07.339
toe extremely long like what about the hog dude

00:24:07.339 --> 00:24:10.359
can i get like what if i want to be hogged out

00:24:10.880 --> 00:24:12.920
But the thing is, if they make that longer, would

00:24:12.920 --> 00:24:14.839
your nipples also be longer? You don't know.

00:24:14.940 --> 00:24:16.980
That's true. And I feel like we're not there

00:24:16.980 --> 00:24:18.799
yet where we can start seeing the effects of

00:24:18.799 --> 00:24:23.579
it. Right. This is a take time operation, I feel

00:24:23.579 --> 00:24:25.259
like. It's going to be another X -Men situation,

00:24:25.599 --> 00:24:29.619
I think. Yeah. Like mutants will be walking among

00:24:29.619 --> 00:24:31.839
us. They'll be like blue eyed and gorgeous, but

00:24:31.839 --> 00:24:36.440
they'll have like 47 toes on one leg. I mean,

00:24:36.460 --> 00:24:40.859
if. That's like a hard price to pay for blue

00:24:40.859 --> 00:24:42.680
eyes is all I'm saying. Yeah, but all I'm saying

00:24:42.680 --> 00:24:44.700
is that if they're smoking hot and gorgeous and

00:24:44.700 --> 00:24:47.099
they have 47 toes, that's an only fair thing

00:24:47.099 --> 00:24:50.539
to happen. That's a foot finder career if I ever

00:24:50.539 --> 00:24:53.559
heard one. Quentin Tarantino found his next muse.

00:24:57.539 --> 00:25:00.200
Oh, shit. All right. Yeah, so this is the last

00:25:00.200 --> 00:25:02.599
bit of the story and then we'll move on. At present.

00:25:02.970 --> 00:25:04.970
Obviously, there is no verified evidence supporting

00:25:04.970 --> 00:25:06.829
the claim that non -human entities have altered

00:25:06.829 --> 00:25:09.509
human DNA. The theory remains unconfirmed, but

00:25:09.509 --> 00:25:11.769
continues to circulate due to its ability to

00:25:11.769 --> 00:25:14.470
reinterpret familiar biological concepts in a

00:25:14.470 --> 00:25:17.349
speculative framework. This story comes around

00:25:17.349 --> 00:25:19.369
once every, like, three years, so it's not anything

00:25:19.369 --> 00:25:25.589
new. If there are aliens here on Earth, it's

00:25:25.589 --> 00:25:30.849
octopi. Octopus? Octopi? Octopods. Dude, anything

00:25:30.849 --> 00:25:33.309
that's fucking... like in that like midnight

00:25:33.309 --> 00:25:35.410
zone where everything is fucking like that's

00:25:35.410 --> 00:25:38.789
all alien to me anglerfish yeah i hate it all

00:25:38.789 --> 00:25:41.150
of it there's that fucking the 10 guild 8 guild

00:25:41.150 --> 00:25:43.430
shark or whatever the fuck that eats once a year

00:25:43.430 --> 00:25:45.789
when a whale fucking hits the bottom yeah they

00:25:45.789 --> 00:25:47.970
just hang out that's not normal that's i hate

00:25:47.970 --> 00:25:50.710
it all yeah i hate it all yeah okay we want to

00:25:50.710 --> 00:25:53.029
move on to something fun yeah there's more conspiracy

00:25:53.029 --> 00:25:55.970
than anything And I kind of dig it. Recent activity

00:25:55.970 --> 00:25:57.990
involving the registration of government web

00:25:57.990 --> 00:26:00.329
domains has drawn attention after it was confirmed

00:26:00.329 --> 00:26:03.190
that federal agencies secured the addresses alien

00:26:03.190 --> 00:26:11.289
.gov and aliens .gov. Jesus fucking Christ. What?

00:26:11.990 --> 00:26:15.390
What does that bum you out? That's fun. No, I,

00:26:15.529 --> 00:26:17.589
you know what it is? It's those fucking doge

00:26:17.589 --> 00:26:20.410
idiots. The ones that like didn't get laid off.

00:26:20.450 --> 00:26:22.309
They're still hanging around, just buying up

00:26:22.309 --> 00:26:25.519
shit and doing dumb stuff. Well, they did say

00:26:25.519 --> 00:26:28.799
that, well, I mean, they said it, but they were

00:26:28.799 --> 00:26:31.640
like, we're going to release alien stuff. Maybe

00:26:31.640 --> 00:26:35.619
this. And they did not. Yes. All right. Have

00:26:35.619 --> 00:26:38.480
faith, Sarge. All right. This administration

00:26:38.480 --> 00:26:42.500
does not lead us astray ever. Right. That's why

00:26:42.500 --> 00:26:47.380
I paid $3 .99 for gas today. It's $4 .45. Jesus

00:26:47.380 --> 00:26:50.500
Christ. It's not great. The cheapest I found

00:26:50.500 --> 00:26:53.279
up here is $3 .75. Now remember, it's $4 .45

00:26:53.279 --> 00:26:55.279
if you're paying cash. It's $4 .55. Why did I

00:26:55.279 --> 00:26:56.940
go to Iraq? I thought we were supposed to have

00:26:56.940 --> 00:26:59.359
cheap gas prices after that. Dude, we took over

00:26:59.359 --> 00:27:04.140
Venezuela. This should be cheap. We stole a country.

00:27:04.660 --> 00:27:08.660
Why is my fucking gas so expensive, dude? Boots

00:27:08.660 --> 00:27:10.200
on the ground. Boots on the ground. Boots on

00:27:10.200 --> 00:27:12.640
the ground. The registration was identified through

00:27:12.640 --> 00:27:14.900
publicly accessible domain tracking records and

00:27:14.900 --> 00:27:17.559
quickly gained traction online. The discovery

00:27:17.559 --> 00:27:19.240
comes at a time of heightened public interest

00:27:19.240 --> 00:27:21.740
in unidentified aerial phenomenon as well as

00:27:21.740 --> 00:27:23.660
ongoing discussions regarding the release of

00:27:23.660 --> 00:27:25.759
previous classified government materials related

00:27:25.759 --> 00:27:27.500
to UFO sightings. We're never going to see that.

00:27:27.819 --> 00:27:31.059
Nope. At this time, no official statement has

00:27:31.059 --> 00:27:33.160
been issued explaining the purposes of the domains.

00:27:34.029 --> 00:27:36.089
There's been no announcement of a corresponding

00:27:36.089 --> 00:27:39.009
website, no indication of when or if the domains

00:27:39.009 --> 00:27:43.289
will be used. Also, that kind of sucks. I guess

00:27:43.289 --> 00:27:46.170
you can't buy a .gov name unless you're the government,

00:27:46.309 --> 00:27:49.170
right? What if I wanted to buy alien .gov? Could

00:27:49.170 --> 00:27:51.130
I do that? I don't think so. I don't think you

00:27:51.130 --> 00:27:53.470
can buy a .gov unless you're the gov. That sucks.

00:27:53.690 --> 00:27:57.849
All right. There's been no clarification regarding

00:27:57.849 --> 00:28:01.089
which agency initiated the registrations. Government.

00:28:01.930 --> 00:28:04.069
This government domain registration is a common

00:28:04.069 --> 00:28:06.230
practice, often used to reserve names for potential

00:28:06.230 --> 00:28:08.230
future use or to prevent unauthorized parties

00:28:08.230 --> 00:28:10.069
from acquiring. Oh, so yeah, I could have. Fuck.

00:28:10.549 --> 00:28:12.069
Dude, I should have. You know how much money

00:28:12.069 --> 00:28:14.650
could have paid me for that shit? However, the

00:28:14.650 --> 00:28:16.789
specific terminology used in these registrations

00:28:16.789 --> 00:28:18.890
has contributed to increased public curiosity,

00:28:19.230 --> 00:28:22.470
particularly given the timing. The registrations

00:28:22.470 --> 00:28:24.529
coincided with continued efforts by various government

00:28:24.529 --> 00:28:26.809
bodies to address public interest in UFO related

00:28:26.809 --> 00:28:29.730
topics, including hearings, reports and statements

00:28:29.730 --> 00:28:32.329
acknowledging the existence of unexplained aerial

00:28:32.329 --> 00:28:34.630
encounters. While there is no confirmed connection

00:28:34.630 --> 00:28:36.769
between the domain registration and any like

00:28:36.769 --> 00:28:39.250
forthcoming disclosures, the overlap in timing

00:28:39.250 --> 00:28:41.369
has led to increased attention and speculation.

00:28:41.430 --> 00:28:45.829
So for now, they're just two inactive dormant

00:28:45.829 --> 00:28:48.119
domains. And then no one knows what they're going

00:28:48.119 --> 00:28:50.200
to be used for, but you're right. It probably

00:28:50.200 --> 00:28:52.900
is. It could be weird. It could be weird. It

00:28:52.900 --> 00:28:54.299
could be weird, but it could also just be like

00:28:54.299 --> 00:28:57.019
you said, like it's just fucking just people

00:28:57.019 --> 00:28:59.599
fueling. Like Alex Jones is probably going to

00:28:59.599 --> 00:29:01.779
fucking talk about this, that they did it. You

00:29:01.779 --> 00:29:03.579
know what I mean? Oh yeah. No, Alex Jones probably

00:29:03.579 --> 00:29:07.319
came twice. Just, just with us reading that he

00:29:07.319 --> 00:29:14.019
was remote viewing our podcast. I don't know

00:29:14.019 --> 00:29:15.700
if he's... Is that one of the things he did?

00:29:15.799 --> 00:29:18.859
Oh, yeah. He's into it. He believes it. I believe

00:29:18.859 --> 00:29:23.140
that. I got two more stories for you, Sarge.

00:29:23.259 --> 00:29:26.660
All right, let's go. In Varzinia, renewed attention

00:29:26.660 --> 00:29:28.319
has been focused on one of the country's most

00:29:28.319 --> 00:29:32.039
widely recognized UFO cases as 2026 marks the

00:29:32.039 --> 00:29:35.859
30th anniversary of the incident commonly referred

00:29:35.859 --> 00:29:39.819
to as... the Virginia alien. The case originated

00:29:39.819 --> 00:29:42.880
in January of 1996 when multiple witnesses reported

00:29:42.880 --> 00:29:45.319
seeing a strange creature in the city. Among

00:29:45.319 --> 00:29:47.680
the most widely cited accounts are those of three

00:29:47.680 --> 00:29:50.180
young women who described encountering a small

00:29:50.180 --> 00:29:53.480
humanoid being with brown, oily skin, large red

00:29:53.480 --> 00:29:56.980
eyes, and an unusual posture. In the days following

00:29:56.980 --> 00:29:59.930
the initial sighting, Additional reports emerged,

00:30:00.069 --> 00:30:02.130
including claims that military personnel were

00:30:02.130 --> 00:30:04.309
present in the area and had recovered the creature.

00:30:04.650 --> 00:30:06.470
These claims were never officially confirmed,

00:30:06.630 --> 00:30:08.609
but became central to the narrative surrounding

00:30:08.609 --> 00:30:10.829
the event. The incident quickly gained national

00:30:10.829 --> 00:30:12.750
attention in Brazil and has remained a significant

00:30:12.750 --> 00:30:15.849
part of the country's UFO related history. Over

00:30:15.849 --> 00:30:17.690
time, the story has been revisited through media

00:30:17.690 --> 00:30:19.769
coverage, documentaries and public discussion.

00:30:20.109 --> 00:30:23.369
And in 2026, new projects examining the case

00:30:23.369 --> 00:30:25.269
have brought renewed focus to both the original

00:30:25.269 --> 00:30:27.170
witness accounts and the subsequent reports.

00:30:27.789 --> 00:30:29.849
from the government that was involved. These

00:30:29.849 --> 00:30:32.589
recent explorations have revisited the timeline

00:30:32.589 --> 00:30:34.990
of events, the consistency of witness descriptions,

00:30:35.170 --> 00:30:36.809
and the way the story developed in the years

00:30:36.809 --> 00:30:38.930
following the incident. So yeah, so they're celebrating

00:30:38.930 --> 00:30:42.529
the 30th anniversary of a little brown oily guy

00:30:42.529 --> 00:30:48.569
running around. I will say, you're in Brazil.

00:30:49.690 --> 00:30:52.650
There's a small man with red eyes, with brown

00:30:52.650 --> 00:30:55.019
oily skin. Sounds like someone's just having

00:30:55.019 --> 00:30:57.140
a good time, dude. Just a sunburnt white dude.

00:30:57.480 --> 00:30:59.460
Yeah, he might have just used a little bit too

00:30:59.460 --> 00:31:03.019
much tanning oil. Yeah, yeah. I like that. That's

00:31:03.019 --> 00:31:06.460
fun. You want to see more guys, more brown guys

00:31:06.460 --> 00:31:09.200
with oily skin go to Revere Beach every summer?

00:31:11.099 --> 00:31:13.480
This is true. They don't even sit in the sand.

00:31:13.539 --> 00:31:15.440
They sit in the sidewalk in a lawn chair. Oh,

00:31:15.559 --> 00:31:18.160
that's fucking awful. You want to go get a roast

00:31:18.160 --> 00:31:20.549
beef, kid? I will say this story is pretty cool.

00:31:20.970 --> 00:31:23.269
We should probably do a full episode on it. We

00:31:23.269 --> 00:31:24.890
should. At some point. I want to know more about

00:31:24.890 --> 00:31:27.410
this. It's good. All right. Are you ready for

00:31:27.410 --> 00:31:30.730
the top story? This is our top story. The top

00:31:30.730 --> 00:31:33.529
of the hour. This is our top story. What do we

00:31:33.529 --> 00:31:37.400
got? A viral story originating online has captured

00:31:37.400 --> 00:31:39.220
widespread attention after claiming that a man

00:31:39.220 --> 00:31:41.519
in Florida was found by authorities in a distressed

00:31:41.519 --> 00:31:43.819
condition and told officers he had been abducted

00:31:43.819 --> 00:31:46.700
by dolphins and forced to assist in the construction

00:31:46.700 --> 00:31:57.740
of an underwater city. Aquaman was unavailable.

00:32:00.039 --> 00:32:03.339
According to the circulating account, the individual

00:32:03.339 --> 00:32:06.480
was discovered soaking wet and disoriented, allegedly

00:32:06.480 --> 00:32:08.579
describing an experience in which he had been

00:32:08.579 --> 00:32:11.380
taken into the ocean and made to work on a large

00:32:11.380 --> 00:32:13.720
-scale underwater structure. The story claimed

00:32:13.720 --> 00:32:16.119
that the dolphins communicated with him and directed

00:32:16.119 --> 00:32:18.339
the construction effort. As the story spread

00:32:18.339 --> 00:32:20.920
across social media platforms, additional details

00:32:20.920 --> 00:32:22.619
began to appear in different versions. Some include

00:32:22.619 --> 00:32:24.640
references to a hierarchical structure among

00:32:24.640 --> 00:32:26.900
the dolphins, while others described elements

00:32:26.900 --> 00:32:29.180
such as telepathic communication and organized

00:32:29.180 --> 00:32:32.259
coordination. The dolphin's name was Gerald,

00:32:32.339 --> 00:32:34.759
by the way, I believe. Gerald? I think that's

00:32:34.759 --> 00:32:42.619
what it was. Yeah, pretty fun. The format of

00:32:42.619 --> 00:32:44.960
the original post, which resembled a formal incident

00:32:44.960 --> 00:32:48.170
report, contributed to its rapid spread. Many

00:32:48.170 --> 00:32:50.269
readers initially interpreted the story as legitimate,

00:32:50.490 --> 00:32:53.809
particularly given that it's a Florida man story.

00:32:54.210 --> 00:32:57.869
Yeah. But local law enforcement agencies later

00:32:57.869 --> 00:32:59.269
addressed the claim directly, confirming that

00:32:59.269 --> 00:33:02.190
no such incident had occurred. Officials stated

00:33:02.190 --> 00:33:04.210
that there was no record of any arrest or report

00:33:04.210 --> 00:33:06.430
matching the description. That's what they want

00:33:06.430 --> 00:33:09.769
you to think. They're in the pocket of Big Dolphin.

00:33:09.869 --> 00:33:14.269
That's what I that's my suggestion. In response

00:33:14.269 --> 00:33:17.190
to the viral story, authorities also issued some

00:33:17.190 --> 00:33:19.190
pretty funny remarks referencing the idea of

00:33:19.190 --> 00:33:21.690
an investigative unit focused on underwater activity.

00:33:22.410 --> 00:33:25.089
But yeah, this story is not real, but it was

00:33:25.089 --> 00:33:26.990
going around TikTok for the longest time, but

00:33:26.990 --> 00:33:28.369
I thought it was too fucking funny. Oh, it makes

00:33:28.369 --> 00:33:30.410
me so sad. Yeah, it's been fully debunked. I

00:33:30.410 --> 00:33:32.430
was really hoping it was real. I want to hear

00:33:32.430 --> 00:33:34.910
this guy tell his story. Yeah, it was fully debunked,

00:33:34.910 --> 00:33:37.819
but it's one of those things where it... It's

00:33:37.819 --> 00:33:39.619
like the Miami mall thing where like it just

00:33:39.619 --> 00:33:41.920
kind of blew up. I don't, no one took it seriously.

00:33:42.119 --> 00:33:44.779
I don't obviously, but yeah, it's just funny

00:33:44.779 --> 00:33:48.660
to imagine that you're in the water. You get

00:33:48.660 --> 00:33:51.799
kidnapped by a dolphin named Gerald. And then

00:33:51.799 --> 00:33:57.099
how do you breathe though? See, I don't know.

00:33:57.200 --> 00:33:59.680
I think it probably, maybe I think he had like,

00:33:59.720 --> 00:34:04.319
maybe like a, what are those? What was that video

00:34:04.319 --> 00:34:06.599
game where you get a bubble and it's over your

00:34:06.599 --> 00:34:09.280
head? Oh, okay. Maybe something like that. Or

00:34:09.280 --> 00:34:11.579
maybe it was like a Sandy Cheeks from SpongeBob.

00:34:11.659 --> 00:34:14.800
He just had an upside down fishbowl on his head.

00:34:14.860 --> 00:34:18.880
I don't know. But yeah, obviously at this time

00:34:18.880 --> 00:34:21.699
no evidence exists to support the claim and remains

00:34:21.699 --> 00:34:23.780
an example of how quickly fabricated narratives

00:34:23.780 --> 00:34:25.539
gain traction and develop into widely believed

00:34:25.539 --> 00:34:30.280
stories. I love how dolphins were capable to

00:34:30.280 --> 00:34:36.130
design and build a large... structure. They needed

00:34:36.130 --> 00:34:40.429
the guy for what? To use the pliers because they

00:34:40.429 --> 00:34:44.210
don't have thumbs? It's probably a thumbs situation.

00:34:46.449 --> 00:34:49.610
That's clearly what it is. That's all I got.

00:34:49.809 --> 00:34:52.829
That's all for the first three months of the

00:34:52.829 --> 00:34:55.409
year. This is some of the news stories I found.

00:34:55.550 --> 00:34:56.690
I thought they were pretty funny. Frankly, this

00:34:56.690 --> 00:34:58.889
is the only news that matters. I know. I feel

00:34:58.889 --> 00:35:01.449
like we should do this once a month. I think

00:35:01.449 --> 00:35:03.940
we need it. yeah if anything if anything fun

00:35:03.940 --> 00:35:06.840
I mean because most I feel like most most cryptid

00:35:06.840 --> 00:35:09.719
stories like news is like someone saw a thing

00:35:09.719 --> 00:35:13.539
once yeah I'm not trying to report on that we

00:35:13.539 --> 00:35:15.880
might need to do this like once a quarter that

00:35:15.880 --> 00:35:17.980
way we can make sure that we have good stories

00:35:17.980 --> 00:35:21.039
yeah not just guy in Florida does a shitload

00:35:21.039 --> 00:35:23.920
of meth and then marries an alligator yeah once

00:35:23.920 --> 00:35:26.489
every three months once every four months We'll

00:35:26.489 --> 00:35:28.469
figure it out. It'll be fun. What'd you think?

00:35:28.550 --> 00:35:31.010
Any of these your favorite? You got a top story,

00:35:31.190 --> 00:35:32.849
but I feel like the Dolphin one doesn't count.

00:35:33.130 --> 00:35:37.510
I have to say the fact that New Hampshire has

00:35:37.510 --> 00:35:41.650
the largest amount of UFO sightings is not only

00:35:41.650 --> 00:35:44.190
exciting, but the least surprising bit of information

00:35:44.190 --> 00:35:46.969
I've ever heard in my life. Yeah, it's pretty,

00:35:47.030 --> 00:35:51.130
I feel like it makes sense. Yeah, and if anyone

00:35:51.130 --> 00:35:53.429
has ever driven through rural New Hampshire,

00:35:53.610 --> 00:35:56.369
you know exactly why this is unsurprising. Yeah,

00:35:56.409 --> 00:36:02.849
go to any of the notches. You got Franconia notch.

00:36:03.489 --> 00:36:05.409
Crawford notch. Yeah, if you go to any of the

00:36:05.409 --> 00:36:10.130
notches, you'll understand. It's definitely eerie

00:36:10.130 --> 00:36:12.889
at night anyways. It has a vibe where you're

00:36:12.889 --> 00:36:15.610
like, I could get abducted out here. It is. You

00:36:15.610 --> 00:36:17.610
know, I was actually just explaining this to

00:36:17.610 --> 00:36:21.309
somebody who's not from here. There is something

00:36:21.309 --> 00:36:23.989
about the wilderness in New Hampshire that is

00:36:23.989 --> 00:36:26.989
just fucking terrifying. It's not great. I've

00:36:26.989 --> 00:36:30.949
never felt that anywhere else in New England

00:36:30.949 --> 00:36:34.510
or like I spent time, you know, in Missouri and

00:36:34.510 --> 00:36:38.429
I spent some time in the woods. I've camped in

00:36:38.429 --> 00:36:42.849
a lot of places, but I have never been as pants

00:36:42.849 --> 00:36:45.510
shittingly uncomfortable as I've been in certain

00:36:45.510 --> 00:36:47.769
areas of the wilderness in New Hampshire. Yeah.

00:36:48.190 --> 00:36:49.690
And it's crazy, too, because I used to get drunk

00:36:49.690 --> 00:36:53.829
in it a lot. Yeah, that's not a good idea. Just

00:36:53.829 --> 00:36:55.789
find an access road somewhere in the woods. Just

00:36:55.789 --> 00:36:57.789
drive down there as far as you can go. Then walk.

00:36:57.949 --> 00:37:02.030
Then you just camp. Get hammered. Right. I mean,

00:37:02.050 --> 00:37:04.530
that's literally just camping for me. Yeah, I'm

00:37:04.530 --> 00:37:06.230
surprised I didn't get murdered more often. Or

00:37:06.230 --> 00:37:08.969
abducted by aliens. I say murdered more often.

00:37:09.840 --> 00:37:11.800
No, you should have been abducted by aliens.

00:37:12.320 --> 00:37:15.320
One of the two. It's either going to be a Deliverance

00:37:15.320 --> 00:37:17.340
-style thing or it's going to be abducted by

00:37:17.340 --> 00:37:21.019
aliens. Who knows? That's the episode. I loved

00:37:21.019 --> 00:37:23.980
it. I think it was a lot of fun. Some of these

00:37:23.980 --> 00:37:27.980
stories are crazy. If people out there, if listeners

00:37:27.980 --> 00:37:30.260
out there get weird news stories that you come

00:37:30.260 --> 00:37:33.800
across, send them to us. I feel like the Cryptid

00:37:33.800 --> 00:37:36.619
News Network could be a recurring thing. If we

00:37:36.619 --> 00:37:38.960
find the right stuff. I'm not just going to...

00:37:39.289 --> 00:37:41.250
I'm not going to force it. How's that? We're

00:37:41.250 --> 00:37:44.489
not going to take a story from any Tom, Dick,

00:37:44.489 --> 00:37:47.329
and Harry. This needs to be a legitimate green

00:37:47.329 --> 00:37:54.170
text on black background news story. I'll take

00:37:54.170 --> 00:37:56.110
a story from anything. What I'm saying is that

00:37:56.110 --> 00:37:59.110
if I don't have enough to do a full episode every

00:37:59.110 --> 00:38:01.849
few months, I'm not going to do it. I'm not going

00:38:01.849 --> 00:38:04.030
to force it. I'm not going to half -ass something

00:38:04.030 --> 00:38:09.860
the way I did this. It wasn't really half -assed.

00:38:10.019 --> 00:38:13.500
You found some news on the internet. Yeah. It

00:38:13.500 --> 00:38:16.199
was good. It was fun. I'm actually sad about

00:38:16.199 --> 00:38:18.360
the dolphin one. I really wanted that to be...

00:38:18.360 --> 00:38:22.159
I really wanted that guy to be wholeheartedly

00:38:22.159 --> 00:38:26.139
real. Yeah, Gerald the Dolphin. I need to know

00:38:26.139 --> 00:38:28.980
where the name came from. Probably some fucking

00:38:28.980 --> 00:38:32.960
TikToker. Who knows? I don't know. More than

00:38:32.960 --> 00:38:36.639
likely. Alright, Sarge. I think that's it. Thank

00:38:36.639 --> 00:38:38.519
you so much for listening, everyone. It's good

00:38:38.519 --> 00:38:40.719
to be back. I missed all of you. I missed you,

00:38:40.760 --> 00:38:42.079
Sarge. I wasn't here last week. I missed you.

00:38:43.519 --> 00:38:45.699
All right. Is there anything you want to plug

00:38:45.699 --> 00:38:49.159
before we sign off? No, I got nothing brewing

00:38:49.159 --> 00:38:52.699
right now. I'm a busy man, but nothing fun. All

00:38:52.699 --> 00:38:56.579
right. Yeah. Thanks, everyone, again, who bought

00:38:56.579 --> 00:39:00.059
a T -shirt. Send us pictures of the T -shirt.

00:39:00.139 --> 00:39:03.019
I want to try and get a collage real thing together.

00:39:03.300 --> 00:39:05.360
If you got a shirt, send me a picture of you

00:39:05.360 --> 00:39:10.710
wearing the shirt. And I think that's it. Follow

00:39:17.230 --> 00:39:19.789
And I guess with that out of the way, Sarge,

00:39:19.789 --> 00:39:20.789
would you like to say goodbye and I love you

00:39:20.789 --> 00:39:22.949
to the audience? Goodbye and I love you.
