#22 Am I Overthinking?

WEBVTT
00:00:00.160 --> 00:00:04.559
Welcome back, everybody, to the Digital Fire Podcast.
00:00:04.799 --> 00:00:07.839
As always, it's Caleb and Stefan.
00:00:08.000 --> 00:00:08.560
Woo!
00:00:08.640 --> 00:00:08.960
Woo!
00:00:10.160 --> 00:00:16.079
And like always, before we start chatting, we have to crack a cold one with the boys.
00:00:17.600 --> 00:00:18.239
Ooh.
00:00:18.719 --> 00:00:20.399
That was pretty much spot on.
00:00:20.480 --> 00:00:23.039
I think it was like a millisecond off on somebody's end.
00:00:23.199 --> 00:00:24.000
Just a millisecond.
00:00:24.239 --> 00:00:25.440
Just a millisecond.
00:00:26.320 --> 00:00:27.120
A millisecond.
00:00:27.440 --> 00:00:28.239
A millisecond.
00:00:28.399 --> 00:00:30.239
It was wood-wee, just a millisecond.
00:00:30.480 --> 00:00:31.199
Woodawee.
00:00:32.079 --> 00:00:38.479
But I have the classic mooch mango as always, but you've got I've got the green tea cucumber with citrus.
00:00:40.560 --> 00:00:40.880
Oh.
00:00:41.520 --> 00:00:42.479
Hold up.
00:00:44.079 --> 00:00:45.119
There it is.
00:00:47.759 --> 00:00:48.799
This tea is amazing.
00:00:49.039 --> 00:00:50.320
Wonderful flavor.
00:00:50.640 --> 00:00:53.200
The bold flavor really brings out the whatever.
00:00:53.920 --> 00:00:55.439
Would you like to add pigeon milk?
00:00:56.000 --> 00:00:56.960
Imagine.
00:00:57.280 --> 00:00:59.920
Imagine if he just like showed up here for that split side.
00:01:00.320 --> 00:01:02.640
He just pops out of the corner of the little table.
00:01:03.920 --> 00:01:04.799
Oh my god.
00:01:04.959 --> 00:01:06.879
I don't know if I would be intrigued or scared.
00:01:07.040 --> 00:01:08.239
I'd be scared.
00:01:08.640 --> 00:01:12.239
A 3D pigeon with glasses and a bartending outfit.
00:01:12.400 --> 00:01:14.159
Well, if he came off as friendly, sure.
00:01:14.400 --> 00:01:18.719
But it's kind of like that, you know that uh have you seen the advertisements for the new movie Buddy?
00:01:19.439 --> 00:01:21.040
No, but I do know what that movie is.
00:01:21.120 --> 00:01:22.239
It looks very scary.
00:01:22.719 --> 00:01:30.239
It dude, it's so it's funny because there's mixed reviews on it, but the guy who voices Buddy is the original voice for Barney.
00:01:30.400 --> 00:01:30.560
Yeah.
00:01:30.719 --> 00:01:35.280
I was like, dude, and I've seen clips of it on TikTok, and he sounds just like him.
00:01:35.439 --> 00:01:37.760
There's a meme of him going around right now.
00:01:38.079 --> 00:01:39.519
My how the mighty have fallen.
00:01:40.159 --> 00:01:47.280
Dude, well, the one the meme that's going on right now is like, uh, we have to get so-and-so to Diamond City because he's sick.
00:01:47.519 --> 00:01:51.120
And then he goes, Oh, well, I'll take him to the nurse, there, Mr.
00:01:51.200 --> 00:01:52.159
Train, or something like that.
00:01:52.239 --> 00:01:58.239
And then the kid's like, You murdered the nurse, buddy, and goes, Wade, you know that's a lie, and lying is bad.
00:01:58.480 --> 00:02:01.040
Like, he gets in his face about it, too.
00:02:01.120 --> 00:02:02.560
And it's like, whoa.
00:02:03.280 --> 00:02:03.760
Dang.
00:02:03.920 --> 00:02:10.800
But the but the movie, like the official TikTok account for Buddy, actually responds to like almost everybody that comments on it.
00:02:10.960 --> 00:02:12.240
Like, they're like, What's this, buddy?
00:02:12.400 --> 00:02:19.360
And it's him and Barney, like, I don't know, kissing or something like that, or like doing something stupid, and then he goes, I don't want to talk about it.
00:02:20.080 --> 00:02:23.280
Or he does like the finger point thing like they do in the movie.
00:02:23.520 --> 00:02:23.840
Yeah.
00:02:24.159 --> 00:02:25.039
Oh my gosh.
00:02:25.199 --> 00:02:28.319
I haven't seen it, but I kind of I'm I'm kind of intrigued.
00:02:28.719 --> 00:02:42.400
Because it comes off obviously as like an innocent kids movie, and parents are mad because they they're like, Oh yeah, it looks like an innocent kids movie, and they don't see that it's rated R, and all the commercials for it are rated R.
00:02:42.719 --> 00:02:45.199
Because it's a parent, it's like I don't know what you would call it.
00:02:45.280 --> 00:02:47.199
It's like a comedy horror.
00:02:47.599 --> 00:02:52.560
Because it's supposed to represent like a 1990s like kids show, you know what I mean?
00:02:53.280 --> 00:02:58.960
But it's like that's the parent's fault if they take their kid in and the kid gets scared of buddy.
00:02:59.360 --> 00:03:01.840
Yeah, and you should be able to tell that it's right.
00:03:02.000 --> 00:03:11.280
And first of all, too, I blame the theater at that point, not because of the fact that they're advertising it, but because of the fact that it's like don't they have to check your ID to make sure you're 18?
00:03:11.360 --> 00:03:13.120
And then why are you like there's also a little bit of a.
00:03:13.520 --> 00:03:16.719
If you're if you're a parent and you have a kid, you can take the kid in.
00:03:17.280 --> 00:03:21.439
Even if it's rated R, like what if they're like eight years old and they're like checking this out?
00:03:21.520 --> 00:03:22.479
You know what I mean?
00:03:22.719 --> 00:03:26.000
Like, because again, it's rated R, and I feel like that would throw it off.
00:03:26.080 --> 00:03:26.960
You know what I mean?
00:03:27.199 --> 00:03:31.680
Like, if I was a kid, like if I had a kid and he was eight years old and he's like next to me and goes, I want to see buddy.
00:03:31.919 --> 00:03:33.599
I'm like, dude, it's rated R.
00:03:33.919 --> 00:03:35.599
And he goes, Yeah, but it looks cool.
00:03:35.680 --> 00:03:44.000
And I'm like, No, we're not seeing it when you get older, sure, but like I no, I can already tell it's a red flag kind of a movie for bringing a kid in there.
00:03:44.479 --> 00:03:53.280
Yeah, I mean, it I guess there are some pictures that make it look like a kid's movie, but there's other ones that are like so obvious that it wouldn't be.
00:03:53.520 --> 00:03:54.159
Right.
00:03:54.960 --> 00:04:00.800
And I just don't know how people don't do their research on what these movies are.
00:04:01.039 --> 00:04:07.439
Yeah, I got um I got my friend Raquel and my friend Brian are gonna go see it tomorrow.
00:04:07.680 --> 00:04:09.439
And I told them Do you have your ID?
00:04:09.840 --> 00:04:11.199
No, I'm not gonna go see it.
00:04:11.360 --> 00:04:14.000
Uh, because tomorrow I'm gonna go see my newborn niece.
00:04:14.240 --> 00:04:15.360
Her name is Lilith.
00:04:15.919 --> 00:04:16.160
Ooh.
00:04:16.560 --> 00:04:20.639
Yeah, so um, she was just born last Sunday, I think.
00:04:21.120 --> 00:04:23.439
Um, or last Saturday, one of the two.
00:04:23.839 --> 00:04:32.560
But um, yeah, she's at the house now and everything else went good, and then my sister's bringing her new dog who's a Ruttweiler named uh Russell.
00:04:32.720 --> 00:04:35.360
He's just a puppy, but he's huge.
00:04:35.839 --> 00:04:44.720
Like, I was like, dude, I haven't seen a puppy in it, because there's Yogi, his other pit bull, and I'm like, that I'm used to him, he's just a big pit bull.
00:04:44.879 --> 00:04:57.839
Yeah, but like, you know, then you get the Ruttweiler, and he's like, I think a month old or something like that, or whatever, or two months old, maybe, and he is huge for a puppy Ruttweiler.
00:04:58.079 --> 00:04:58.399
Is he?
00:04:58.720 --> 00:05:00.079
Yeah, oh yeah, he's huge.
00:05:00.560 --> 00:05:09.759
He is yeah, compare like when Annika she um has a video of him on TikTok and her, and I'm like, dude, he's almost as big as her.
00:05:10.079 --> 00:05:10.879
Like already.
00:05:10.959 --> 00:05:13.680
I'm like, holy crap, that's a big dow.
00:05:14.240 --> 00:05:14.959
That is a big dow.
00:05:22.480 --> 00:05:24.800
Can't dog candle.
00:05:26.879 --> 00:05:32.800
I can't remember the lyrics, but like I don't know why that just came into mind.
00:05:33.120 --> 00:05:34.720
I think I think you're really close.
00:05:34.959 --> 00:05:35.519
Probably.
00:05:35.680 --> 00:05:36.079
Yeah.
00:05:36.240 --> 00:05:39.040
Yeah, because oh my god, that show was something else too.
00:05:39.279 --> 00:05:39.920
Yeah, it was.
00:05:40.079 --> 00:05:43.360
Yeah, yeah, that was that was that was something else.
00:05:43.600 --> 00:05:48.319
All those 90s and early 2000s Nickelodeon shows were kind of even Cartoon Network too.
00:05:48.399 --> 00:05:52.639
Johnny Bravo, I am weasel, oh Angry Beavers.
00:05:52.879 --> 00:05:53.519
What else was there?
00:05:53.680 --> 00:05:54.639
Hey Arnold.
00:05:54.879 --> 00:05:56.160
Hey Arnold was Nickelodeon.
00:05:56.240 --> 00:05:58.560
Yeah, hey Arnold was Nickelodeon, Ed Ed Netty.
00:05:59.759 --> 00:06:02.000
Hey Arnold was like somewhat normal, wasn't it?
00:06:02.560 --> 00:06:06.959
Yeah, it was like you well, Arnold lived in like, I don't know, like in the city.
00:06:07.199 --> 00:06:08.639
Yeah, but he had a really cool room.
00:06:08.800 --> 00:06:09.920
Yeah, he had a really cool room.
00:06:10.000 --> 00:06:15.600
Yeah, it was like a planetarium almost because he had like the the sky roof or whatever it's called, the skylight.
00:06:15.839 --> 00:06:19.920
And uh yeah, he lived with his grandma and grandpa and like a bunch of other people that are in the room.
00:06:20.000 --> 00:06:29.439
And there was that deadbeat guy who was like dating the one blonde girl, and uh she was like, I just got done working like 25 hours like in a row.
00:06:29.519 --> 00:06:30.399
Like, I need to take a break.
00:06:30.480 --> 00:06:32.319
He goes, Oh, come on, Susie.
00:06:32.639 --> 00:06:33.600
I need the bath.
00:06:34.800 --> 00:06:36.000
There was like that guy.
00:06:36.319 --> 00:06:37.519
Whose parents were that?
00:06:37.600 --> 00:06:39.920
It was like one of the kids' parents, I think, wasn't it?
00:06:40.399 --> 00:06:44.240
No, Oscar Oscar was the guy's name, the the the freeloader.
00:06:44.480 --> 00:06:48.160
He's like, Oh, come on, I just need$20, it'll be okay.
00:06:48.319 --> 00:06:50.319
Like, I think he was Italian or something like that.
00:06:50.399 --> 00:06:52.639
But yeah, he was like, Yeah, here's some here was something.
00:06:52.720 --> 00:06:53.600
Let me let me see here.
00:06:53.759 --> 00:07:00.560
Oh, and then Helga's mom was an alcoholic, but they they used uh the excuse of her drinking fruit juice or something like that.
00:07:00.720 --> 00:07:08.959
It was, and then her dad was just neglectful of her, but loved the sister for Helga, and so that's why Helga was such a bully.
00:07:09.199 --> 00:07:18.800
Um, what was the the bully with like he had the hot dog looking mouth, and then he had the one tooth that like oh what was his name?
00:07:18.879 --> 00:07:23.279
Because there was Gerald, and that was uh Arnold's black friend with the tall afro.
00:07:23.600 --> 00:07:32.160
Yeah, the the crazy one that like his yeah the head was like way up there, and then uh yeah, but his head like went with it.
00:07:32.240 --> 00:07:47.680
You could see it like yeah, like his forehead went up there with it, and then there was um there was a country redneck guy, but my the most monumental moment for me was when oh I forget his name, I think it was something racist, but it was like Mr.
00:07:47.839 --> 00:07:49.120
Wang or something like that.
00:07:49.279 --> 00:08:01.040
That he was like an Asian dude, and they had Randy Travis voice him when he sang a country song, and then Randy Travis made an appearance in the same episode and be like, Wow, Mr.
00:08:01.199 --> 00:08:16.560
Yang, you know, you sing my music just like me, and you have a wonderful country music, and then he's like, You can tell me all the things that I did wrong, and then on chicken wings, French Fridays, and here it dude.
00:08:16.720 --> 00:08:18.319
Oh, that was my favorite episode.
00:08:18.399 --> 00:08:20.800
And Brandon Travis never released it as a full song.
00:08:20.879 --> 00:08:23.360
I'm like, bro, that'd be so cool to do now.
00:08:23.600 --> 00:08:34.480
I mean, I know he can't sing anymore, but yeah, that would have been cool that because it's like I got the simple things, I got some chicken wings, like it literally was just stupid crap like that.
00:08:34.559 --> 00:08:36.000
He would sing about.
00:08:37.519 --> 00:08:40.320
Uh, and then there was the Hey Arnold movie.
00:08:40.399 --> 00:08:41.519
Oh, there was Recess too.
00:08:41.600 --> 00:08:42.320
Yeah, we talked about that.
00:08:42.639 --> 00:08:43.840
Yeah, we didn't.
00:08:44.080 --> 00:08:44.879
Yeah, we did.
00:08:46.639 --> 00:08:49.120
Oh man, good old cartoons, man.
00:08:49.840 --> 00:08:54.799
Back in the 90s, back in the 90s, even 80s cartoons lasted a while.
00:08:55.120 --> 00:09:04.080
Simpsons, I think, is still the uh Simpsons and South Park, I think, is the longest lasted uh at least the adult cartoon side of things.
00:09:04.159 --> 00:09:07.039
And King of the Hill technically is too now because it has a reboot.
00:09:07.360 --> 00:09:13.440
SpongeBob is still going on, and that's the longest lasting Nickelodeon show.
00:09:13.759 --> 00:09:22.879
I thought that was gonna die at some point too, because all the rest of them died, rug rats and angry beavers, and you know, God only knows what else.
00:09:23.679 --> 00:09:24.320
Yeah.
00:09:24.720 --> 00:09:27.200
So how's our half hour uh opening there?
00:09:27.519 --> 00:09:28.320
It's pretty good.
00:09:29.039 --> 00:09:31.200
I think I think people will be really drawn into it.
00:09:31.360 --> 00:09:31.840
They will.
00:09:32.080 --> 00:09:34.639
But I think we're ready to uh start reading some stories.
00:09:34.960 --> 00:09:41.840
But first, before we start reading them, we we have to jump in.
00:09:43.440 --> 00:09:46.559
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:09:46.720 --> 00:09:49.039
Woohoo! Come on, let's go.
00:09:50.639 --> 00:09:55.120
Hi, I'm 28 female, and recently moved.
00:09:55.200 --> 00:09:56.559
Well, it says 28 parentheses.
00:09:58.879 --> 00:10:04.960
Really deep male voice, and recently moved into a rented house in a neighborhood.
00:10:05.200 --> 00:10:13.919
It's a nice place out in the countryside, so there, so there is where all the houses are, and once you leave out on the road, it feels like you're out in the middle of nowhere.
00:10:14.080 --> 00:10:14.240
Ooh.
00:10:16.480 --> 00:10:18.080
Both just go, ooh.
00:10:18.799 --> 00:10:20.480
Those can be nice sometimes, I think.
00:10:20.559 --> 00:10:22.960
Like a night, you're just like, but I don't know.
00:10:23.039 --> 00:10:27.200
I'd rather just not be in a neighborhood, but I would rather be like in a small town, I think.
00:10:27.279 --> 00:10:34.559
Like if it was like still near the city, but also like you had a really big plot of land that's spaced out, like rule, or rule, you know what I mean?
00:10:34.879 --> 00:10:35.039
Roll.
00:10:35.200 --> 00:10:35.600
Yeah, roll.
00:10:35.919 --> 00:10:40.960
I don't know why I can't speak, but yeah, freaking like I don't know.
00:10:41.039 --> 00:10:43.120
Maybe I'm just tired from work today.
00:10:43.600 --> 00:10:45.360
That's how it usually goes, anyway.
00:10:45.519 --> 00:10:46.559
But continue.
00:10:47.039 --> 00:10:53.679
I really do love it because having neighbors is a bit more warming, but we are not here for the nice parts of the story.
00:10:54.000 --> 00:10:56.559
Oh some neighbor gossip.
00:10:56.799 --> 00:10:57.840
Neighbor gossip.
00:10:58.080 --> 00:11:03.120
You see, I have this odd neighbor who lives a few houses down.
00:11:03.759 --> 00:11:06.960
Not sure if he rents or if he owns his house.
00:11:07.200 --> 00:11:13.039
He's weird now, but boy, when I first saw him, he was the cutest, most attractive man I've ever seen.
00:11:13.360 --> 00:11:16.559
Until until one night.
00:11:16.879 --> 00:11:17.919
It was a dark and stormy.
00:11:18.240 --> 00:11:19.279
Stormy night.
00:11:19.840 --> 00:11:21.919
At least in town, I should say.
00:11:22.080 --> 00:11:24.000
And maybe that doesn't say much.
00:11:24.240 --> 00:11:39.200
I couldn't help but check him out every time I was outside or when driving back home, and something tells me he noticed me doing this because one afternoon he came by as I was coming home and struck up a conversation with me.
00:11:39.440 --> 00:11:39.840
Ooh.
00:11:40.000 --> 00:11:40.559
Ooh.
00:11:40.799 --> 00:11:44.720
It felt so natural, and I just wanted to keep talking to him.
00:11:45.039 --> 00:11:51.200
He then ended our talk, but asked if I wanted to have dinner at his place on that weekend.
00:11:51.519 --> 00:12:06.159
I think, okay, it sounds weird to me, but if I were a chick and I asked, like, or if a guy asked me at that point, like, do you want to come over to my place for dinner after you just stroke like a conversation?
00:12:06.399 --> 00:12:06.960
I don't know.
00:12:07.039 --> 00:12:12.480
I would feel like it'd be public for a few times and then maybe you know be like, Hey, yeah, I'll come over to your place.
00:12:12.639 --> 00:12:14.799
Because I feel like that's a little weird to come over there.
00:12:15.519 --> 00:12:17.440
To like do the first date there, right?
00:12:17.519 --> 00:12:18.639
For yeah, exactly.
00:12:18.879 --> 00:12:19.519
It's just weird.
00:12:19.759 --> 00:12:22.559
Unless they kind of knew each other before that, but it doesn't sound like they do.
00:12:22.960 --> 00:12:34.240
At that point, it'd be like if, like, you know, years later down the road, like let I don't know, got you know, God forbid, like me and you stop talking or something like that, and it's like 10 years later, and you're like, Caleb, why don't you come over and have some pizza?
00:12:34.399 --> 00:12:35.919
You're like, sure thing, Steph.
00:12:36.240 --> 00:12:38.879
And then you come over and we just reminisce about the good old days.
00:12:39.440 --> 00:12:40.639
What you been up to for 10 years?
00:12:40.799 --> 00:12:42.559
Well, I live in North Dakota now.
00:12:42.879 --> 00:12:45.440
Why North Dakota?
00:12:46.000 --> 00:12:46.960
I mean, I'm not opposed.
00:12:47.120 --> 00:12:52.159
North Dakota's all right, but yeah, I'm just like, I don't know, just a random random scenario.
00:12:53.200 --> 00:12:59.919
She then writes, I obviously said yes, but looking back, maybe I should have gone out a few times first.
00:13:00.080 --> 00:13:02.000
You really you literally just nailed it, Stefan.
00:13:02.399 --> 00:13:02.639
I did.
00:13:02.720 --> 00:13:03.120
Look at that.
00:13:03.200 --> 00:13:03.519
That's crazy.
00:13:03.919 --> 00:13:05.120
Steven to the rescue.
00:13:05.360 --> 00:13:06.960
You must Stefan to the rescue.
00:13:07.120 --> 00:13:12.799
You must be like have X-ray vision and can read these, because that was like literally what you said, pretty much.
00:13:13.360 --> 00:13:19.120
So I don't that's I just have like this weird knack for like feeling where things are gonna go.
00:13:19.519 --> 00:13:20.240
Yeah, you do.
00:13:20.480 --> 00:13:21.120
Yeah, I do.
00:13:22.720 --> 00:13:27.840
Anyway, for the next couple days, I didn't really see him, and I thought this was odd.
00:13:28.080 --> 00:13:30.879
Garage door closed, didn't see him outside.
00:13:31.120 --> 00:13:37.120
Now it's possible that since I was going on a date with him date with him, I started to pay attention more to him.
00:13:37.360 --> 00:13:41.759
And since I didn't see him every waking second, maybe my brain tricked me.
00:13:42.000 --> 00:13:48.080
Could be, you know, if she's if like every other day she's not paying as much attention, like maybe this is normally his routine.
00:13:48.240 --> 00:13:48.559
Right.
00:13:48.720 --> 00:13:56.159
And now she's just paying more attention to it because she's like gonna Now she's interested, and like now it's official, like, yeah, I'm gonna go on a date and everything else.
00:13:56.240 --> 00:13:56.559
Yeah.
00:13:56.799 --> 00:13:57.360
So who knows?
00:13:57.600 --> 00:13:59.039
Now she's in stalker mode.
00:13:59.279 --> 00:13:59.919
Yes.
00:14:00.879 --> 00:14:05.919
The day came, that'd be creepy if she like looked, and like every time she looked at his house, like the blind would shut.
00:14:06.080 --> 00:14:07.360
That would scare me.
00:14:07.519 --> 00:14:08.320
I'm sorry.
00:14:08.480 --> 00:14:13.519
That would scare me regardless if like if I was a girl in that situation or if I was a guy in that situation.
00:14:13.679 --> 00:14:14.399
Yeah, oh my god.
00:14:14.639 --> 00:14:15.759
Yeah, that would not be fun.
00:14:15.919 --> 00:14:18.720
Or like she goes to open the blinds and he's right there.
00:14:18.960 --> 00:14:19.519
Oh my god.
00:14:19.679 --> 00:14:20.720
That would be defend.
00:14:20.879 --> 00:14:21.679
That's even worse.
00:14:22.639 --> 00:14:25.840
Terrifying, just a big eyeball just staring at her.
00:14:26.000 --> 00:14:31.039
Or she sees him like across the street and she closes it, opens it again, and it gets closer every time.
00:14:31.360 --> 00:14:34.000
Oh, that would be terrifying.
00:14:34.240 --> 00:14:36.000
That's like horror movie stuff.
00:14:36.240 --> 00:14:36.879
That is.
00:14:38.240 --> 00:14:39.200
Didn't we used to do that?
00:14:39.279 --> 00:14:50.080
Oh no, we was to uh when we go to like youth camp, we would like turn the lights off and keep turning them on and like oh yeah, like it was like uh light tag or something like that, they called it.
00:14:50.399 --> 00:14:51.440
They get closer and closer.
00:14:51.519 --> 00:14:52.480
That is just like scary.
00:14:52.799 --> 00:14:53.600
That would scare me too.
00:14:53.679 --> 00:14:57.759
Yeah, because you have to try to run away and try to like tag them with the light or something like that.
00:14:58.000 --> 00:15:00.159
Yeah, even as a game, it's kind of scary.
00:15:01.519 --> 00:15:05.279
The day came and it was time for me to go to his house.
00:15:05.519 --> 00:15:09.440
He was home and even greeted me at the door and walked me in.
00:15:09.759 --> 00:15:12.480
It is such a lovely place indoors.
00:15:12.799 --> 00:15:19.519
He had a nice spaghetti dinner with meatballs and sauce, garlic bread, and sparkling grape juice.
00:15:19.840 --> 00:15:25.600
He chose not to use real wine because he believed that would be inappropriate because we didn't really know each other that well.
00:15:25.919 --> 00:15:27.279
Okay, that's that's a good start.
00:15:27.679 --> 00:15:28.399
That's a green flag.
00:15:28.559 --> 00:15:32.639
That is a green flag, because I mean, yeah, at that point, if he was like, Oh, have some wine.
00:15:32.720 --> 00:15:34.799
Like, I get it if they're adults, you know what I mean.
00:15:34.960 --> 00:15:37.600
Yeah, but have some wine that I've already opened.
00:15:37.759 --> 00:15:38.639
Yeah, exactly.
00:15:38.879 --> 00:15:42.240
Or, like, you know, he could have put something in the drink or something like that.
00:15:43.039 --> 00:15:45.200
I would I'd just give her an Arizona tea.
00:15:45.279 --> 00:15:46.000
That's what I would do.
00:15:46.080 --> 00:15:49.440
Just the can, not even like a glass and pour it and then be like, Whoa, what is this?
00:15:49.679 --> 00:15:50.399
Just the can.
00:15:50.559 --> 00:15:53.600
And then I could I have the champagne glass with Arizona tea in it.
00:15:53.679 --> 00:15:57.759
Yeah, like you haven't earned your keep yet to have the champagne glass of tea.
00:15:58.080 --> 00:15:58.960
Wow, Stefan.
00:15:59.120 --> 00:15:59.600
Yeah, that's right.
00:16:00.000 --> 00:16:02.000
Not uh that's not how you treat your date.
00:16:02.240 --> 00:16:03.039
That's how I treat them.
00:16:03.279 --> 00:16:04.799
You just let them crack open the can.
00:16:04.960 --> 00:16:06.399
Yeah, I let them crack open the can.
00:16:06.480 --> 00:16:13.039
And then if they even crinkle it a little bit or like they're just done with it, I'm like, wow, that's a disrespect to Arizona right there.
00:16:13.360 --> 00:16:14.159
Get out.
00:16:14.480 --> 00:16:15.679
Get out now.
00:16:16.639 --> 00:16:19.360
Which really put my mind at ease.
00:16:19.759 --> 00:16:26.799
Now, all of this seems normal, and to skip novel amounts of detail, I have now been seeing him for a few weeks.
00:16:27.039 --> 00:16:29.279
Every time has been rather normal.
00:16:29.440 --> 00:16:33.279
There is this one detail about him I find strange.
00:16:33.679 --> 00:16:34.080
Uh uh.
00:16:34.480 --> 00:16:42.480
I've gone to a ho gone to his house a number of times, and at this point he's given me the tour and everything, but I never get to see the basement.
00:16:42.559 --> 00:16:43.759
Why is it always the basement?
00:16:44.000 --> 00:16:45.120
I was gonna say, like, what?
00:16:45.200 --> 00:16:50.720
The one can't just be like a room or or just like even a backyard or something like that.
00:16:50.879 --> 00:16:52.799
Oh, there's a trampoline in the back.
00:16:53.039 --> 00:17:00.799
No, because like the one basement story we listened to forever ago had like dolls or something like that in it, and then it's all labeled to the guy or whatever.
00:17:01.039 --> 00:17:01.840
Yeah, yeah, I remember that.
00:17:01.919 --> 00:17:02.559
That was a while ago.
00:17:02.720 --> 00:17:04.000
Stefan, you remember all these?
00:17:04.480 --> 00:17:04.799
I do.
00:17:05.039 --> 00:17:08.319
Great memory, great memory, great uh forward future.
00:17:08.400 --> 00:17:09.920
I'm like that's all Raven, pretty much.
00:17:10.000 --> 00:17:13.599
I can just see into the future, and the past, and the past quite well.
00:17:13.680 --> 00:17:19.759
Because I don't, I mean, I remember when you bring them up, but I don't ever think about these episodes, and all of a sudden you're like, Yeah, and I was like, Oh yeah.
00:17:20.240 --> 00:17:21.839
Episode like two or something.
00:17:22.000 --> 00:17:23.039
Yeah, it was crazy.
00:17:23.279 --> 00:17:24.319
Don't forget to check them out.
00:17:24.480 --> 00:17:30.400
Yeah, and then I think there was a girl like that had an up, like it was an upstairs room, and it was like there was a deer head and some other animal.
00:17:30.960 --> 00:17:31.920
Oh yeah, yeah.
00:17:32.160 --> 00:17:42.240
Yeah, and the family's like, do not go into that room, and then they and then they left, and so she's like, Well, curiosity kills a cat, and then she just barges in, it's like, oh my god.
00:17:42.640 --> 00:17:49.440
Yeah, it was I was like expecting the like the family to be like right in the room, and then they just shut the door behind her and be like, What did we say?
00:17:49.920 --> 00:17:52.960
You know, like really dark and scary about it.
00:17:53.119 --> 00:17:55.599
Yeah, but I'm kind of curious to see what's in this basement.
00:17:55.759 --> 00:17:56.400
Me too.
00:17:56.640 --> 00:17:58.079
But we don't know if they're gonna see it.
00:17:58.240 --> 00:17:59.599
Oh, yeah, you're right.
00:17:59.920 --> 00:18:02.400
So I've got to see his number, we've read that part.
00:18:02.559 --> 00:18:03.680
Don't get to see the basement.
00:18:03.839 --> 00:18:04.960
He doesn't even mention it.
00:18:05.119 --> 00:18:10.640
Like, I've come over, and while we walk to the living room, he closes the door to the downstairs.
00:18:10.799 --> 00:18:16.480
Now, my first thought that was that maybe it's unfinished, but couldn't he at least say that?
00:18:16.640 --> 00:18:18.160
Maybe he's embarrassed.
00:18:18.400 --> 00:18:22.000
Why did he seem to disappear before the first time going over there?
00:18:22.240 --> 00:18:26.559
He gives off a really good vibe, otherwise, but I'm starting to think that's the main issue.
00:18:26.799 --> 00:18:28.240
What's in his basement?
00:18:28.400 --> 00:18:29.759
Am I overthinking?
00:18:34.960 --> 00:18:36.160
Please help.
00:18:36.400 --> 00:18:38.000
Man, I was you know, low-key.
00:18:38.079 --> 00:18:49.440
I was kind of hoping to be like, let's get some clues as to what maybe like she's like, Yeah, I heard a noise or something down there, you know, something like creepy, or just like she saw a light flicker on and then it like shut off or something.
00:18:49.599 --> 00:18:51.119
That would be terrifying.
00:18:51.440 --> 00:18:52.880
Uh yeah, that'd be scary.
00:18:53.039 --> 00:19:02.240
Yeah, I'm sorry, but like if I saw if I was downstairs in my own home and I saw a light on, and then I would like went down, I'm like, oh, maybe I just left it on, and then it just goes shuts off.
00:19:02.480 --> 00:19:05.920
I'd be like, Nope, board and window, that thing.
00:19:06.079 --> 00:19:07.519
I am never going down there.
00:19:07.680 --> 00:19:10.799
The repair man, if the water heater goes out, he can go down there.
00:19:10.880 --> 00:19:12.240
I'll remove the board and nails.
00:19:12.319 --> 00:19:13.440
But after that, nope.
00:19:13.920 --> 00:19:18.079
Anyway, yeah, I agree, but I wish this one had a little more detail.
00:19:18.160 --> 00:19:22.640
But I guess if she's not down in the basement or doesn't ever see it, she can't really give us much more.
00:19:22.880 --> 00:19:30.160
I mean, maybe if it's like, okay, so you know, like how in your parents' basement, like it has like the carpeted stairs that go down, it's like a whole nother room kind of thing.
00:19:30.319 --> 00:19:32.960
Yeah, maybe it's like that, but maybe he's like doing something.
00:19:33.039 --> 00:19:35.200
That's the only innocent thing I can think of at this point.
00:19:35.279 --> 00:19:38.720
Like, he's got a whole basement that he's like cleaning up or renovating or something down there.
00:19:38.880 --> 00:19:42.720
Well, yeah, she does mention that, but like, why not say that if he's if that's him?
00:19:42.960 --> 00:19:43.119
True.
00:19:43.279 --> 00:19:45.599
Why not just be like, hey, sorry, my basement's unfinished.
00:19:45.839 --> 00:19:52.640
Or it's a really creepy Michigan basement, and it's like concrete, cobwebs, moss growing in it.
00:19:53.039 --> 00:20:00.640
Like, it's just disgusting looking, like typical wooden like shelves that are falling apart, and he's got like that.
00:20:00.720 --> 00:20:02.079
Does that is a Michigan basement?
00:20:02.319 --> 00:20:05.440
50-year-old mayonnaise jars, it's almost as if you're from Michigan.
00:20:05.519 --> 00:20:09.359
It's almost like I am from Michigan, but wait, we're from Mackinac Island, remember?
00:20:09.519 --> 00:20:12.400
Because we know we could just walk across the street and get some fudge.
00:20:12.559 --> 00:20:14.559
Oh, yeah, I do remember that now.
00:20:14.720 --> 00:20:19.119
Yes, docks our location and everything.
00:20:19.200 --> 00:20:22.000
Oh my god, man, it'd be so cool to live on Mackinac Island.
00:20:22.160 --> 00:20:23.200
That would that was fun.
00:20:23.440 --> 00:20:24.559
Because I think, didn't I say that?
00:20:24.720 --> 00:20:26.559
Like, man, we haven't been there in a long time.
00:20:27.039 --> 00:20:29.440
Yeah, but now you're destroying the illusion.
00:20:30.079 --> 00:20:32.319
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:20:32.799 --> 00:20:33.680
Do we remember that now?
00:20:34.000 --> 00:20:35.839
But like honestly, it would be cool to live there.
00:20:36.000 --> 00:20:36.880
That would be.
00:20:37.200 --> 00:20:45.119
Um, yeah, I think maybe it's I don't know, maybe it's just something he's just trying to, I don't know.
00:20:45.279 --> 00:20:49.119
I would say it's probably nothing bad if he never brought her down there per se.
00:20:49.279 --> 00:20:54.000
Now, I would say if he was getting really defensive about it, he goes like, do not go down there.
00:20:54.240 --> 00:20:57.440
Yeah, I wish she would have asked, she should have asked him and then wrote us in.
00:20:57.759 --> 00:21:02.319
Right, but maybe she's also feeling like it's rude because like what they've been dating for a few weeks now at this point.
00:21:02.720 --> 00:21:04.960
So then it's like, oh, what's in your basement, you know?
00:21:05.119 --> 00:21:08.480
Like she's seen most of the house, but not the basement.
00:21:08.559 --> 00:21:28.319
I feel like at that point it's kind of like, eh, you know, I would rather wait a little bit before asking, you know, it'd be like if somebody came over, like if I was dating a chick or like seeing somebody and like I had my office door closed because I didn't want anybody to see it, because maybe I'm a famous, you know, YouTube streamer and I don't want her to know yet.
00:21:28.480 --> 00:21:30.559
And I'm like, yeah, can you just not go in there?
00:21:30.640 --> 00:21:32.000
I don't want you to see anything.
00:21:32.160 --> 00:21:35.200
Like, I don't know, maybe he's like a VTuber or something like that.
00:21:35.519 --> 00:21:43.440
Could be, but do you think that the the the girl coming over to your house and you saying, Don't go in there, I don't want you to see what's in there, wouldn't she be kind of worried?
00:21:43.759 --> 00:21:50.799
Yeah, she'd probably be thrown off, but like I probably wouldn't say it in like a like you know, like a like don't go in there, like a aggressive way.
00:21:50.960 --> 00:21:59.759
I probably just say it like, hey, if you could I got some stuff going on in that room, it's nothing bad, but just if you could just avoid it and then I'll show you.
00:22:00.319 --> 00:22:01.599
Like later on.
00:22:01.920 --> 00:22:03.680
That's still not that great.
00:22:04.640 --> 00:22:05.920
There's nothing bad in there.
00:22:06.000 --> 00:22:07.680
I'll show you later on.
00:22:08.480 --> 00:22:09.279
Yeah, you're right.
00:22:09.359 --> 00:22:10.240
That it's so bad.
00:22:10.400 --> 00:22:12.880
Well, I don't know, because in my mindset, it just sounds innocent.
00:22:12.960 --> 00:22:14.960
Like it's like, I'm being sincere though when I say it.
00:22:15.119 --> 00:22:15.599
Yeah, exactly.
00:22:15.680 --> 00:22:24.720
I mean, that's that would be hard because if because if you're if you're telling the truth, yeah, and that would be kind of a difficult way to say to it, because like how how else do you say it?
00:22:24.880 --> 00:22:25.039
Right.
00:22:25.200 --> 00:22:28.319
It can't be like, yeah, I'm a famous VTuber, don't go in there because that gives it away.
00:22:28.480 --> 00:22:40.400
Right, because well, because I know that some VTubers or YouTubers, they're like, if they're dating somebody and they don't know like who they are, let's say, they don't want them to know because then it's like, oh, now I'm falling in love with the celebrity.
00:22:40.480 --> 00:22:43.359
It's no longer actual love, you know what I mean?
00:22:43.599 --> 00:22:46.799
So that's where I can see maybe that's getting across like that.
00:22:46.960 --> 00:22:52.640
That's again only innocent scenario that like I'm really thinking of is like maybe it's like that too.
00:22:52.799 --> 00:22:53.119
Yeah.
00:22:53.279 --> 00:23:02.160
Um, but other than that, I'm like, I don't think anything else that I can think of would be anything like you know, innocent.
00:23:02.319 --> 00:23:11.119
Like it's either he's got a chop shop down there, or he's like Ted Bundy or something like that, and he's got stuff going on down there.
00:23:11.200 --> 00:23:12.160
I don't know.
00:23:12.400 --> 00:23:16.880
But apparently, if he's cool enough to date for a few weeks, he can't be like a serial killer.
00:23:17.200 --> 00:23:18.160
Well, you don't know that.
00:23:18.240 --> 00:23:21.599
Maybe he or he takes pottery classes like the last guy, too.
00:23:21.839 --> 00:23:22.480
I dang.
00:23:22.559 --> 00:23:24.480
I'm just like pottery classes?
00:23:24.640 --> 00:23:25.839
Yeah, there was that one.
00:23:25.920 --> 00:23:27.279
Um, what was it?
00:23:27.359 --> 00:23:34.480
There was a girl that was dating like this guy for like five years or something like that, and then like he's like, Yeah, I gotta do this thing every Tuesday.
00:23:34.559 --> 00:23:51.359
And it wasn't the the box for it thing, it was like this guy, he would go out, he'd wear like really baggy clothes, and he'd go out into the woods, and then he'd come back with like a bucket and a shovel, and then like he was like really dirty, and there was some red stuff on him.
00:23:52.000 --> 00:23:56.319
I do remember that one, but did it end up him being pottery, or would it be someone?
00:23:56.400 --> 00:23:57.839
She was wondering, like, what should I do?
00:23:58.000 --> 00:23:59.759
Should I follow him and figure out what's going on?
00:23:59.839 --> 00:24:03.920
Maybe he's planning a surprise thing for me, or like, should I just leave him be?
00:24:04.160 --> 00:24:07.440
And I'm like, Well, yeah, if you want to get killed, sure, follow him.
00:24:07.599 --> 00:24:17.279
Like, but otherwise, like, no, I just I would wait until until you see what's going on because you never know you could be the next victim if he is a serial killer at that point.
00:24:17.519 --> 00:24:20.240
But yeah, it was like uh I don't know.
00:24:20.400 --> 00:24:29.599
I don't I as far as I know, if they're only dating for a few weeks, I don't I wouldn't think it's anything bad, but there we we don't have a vibe of this guy, like how he really is, per se.
00:24:29.759 --> 00:24:34.799
Yeah, and there's still a mysterious case of him not being around for a couple days before the date, right?
00:24:34.960 --> 00:24:36.480
Like, why did Shalison not see him?
00:24:36.559 --> 00:24:38.799
Is he like hiding a bunch of stuff in the basement?
00:24:39.039 --> 00:24:39.440
Right.
00:24:39.759 --> 00:24:48.000
Or, you know, again, people have other lives, so maybe he just like had to go out of town for a little bit for family or something, or maybe he was staying at a friend's house.
00:24:48.160 --> 00:24:48.720
I don't know.
00:24:48.960 --> 00:24:50.640
Yeah, because I mean that's what I would do.
00:24:50.720 --> 00:24:58.000
I'm like a few days before the date, maybe at like I'm like, yeah, man, let's go hang out and like I'll stay the night, and you could say the night, whatever.
00:24:58.400 --> 00:25:01.680
I don't know, but that's yeah, she might be overthinking it a little bit, yeah.
00:25:01.839 --> 00:25:02.640
I suppose.
00:25:02.960 --> 00:25:05.920
But I would still be curious at some point.
00:25:06.000 --> 00:25:08.400
I'd yeah, I would definitely ask him after a while.
00:25:08.559 --> 00:25:10.640
Yeah, just ask him, just be like, hey, what's down there, bro?
00:25:10.960 --> 00:25:12.960
And then if he doesn't show, then I'd end it.
00:25:13.119 --> 00:25:17.839
Yeah, like if that's like if you're dating for like two months at that point, and you say, like, what's down there?
00:25:17.920 --> 00:25:25.920
and he's like, Oh, I can't, or if he's like, go down there and find out, like, and then he just shuts the door behind her and he's there's a lock on it.
00:25:26.480 --> 00:25:29.200
Yeah, it's like uh that movie Blackphone.
00:25:29.680 --> 00:25:31.039
That movie was terrifying.
00:25:31.119 --> 00:25:33.440
Yeah, I haven't seen it, but it would probably actually freak me out.
00:25:33.680 --> 00:25:36.079
Yeah, it's it's like psychological horror, I would say.
00:25:36.240 --> 00:25:37.359
Those are the worst kinds.
00:25:37.519 --> 00:25:42.079
Oh, yeah, but it's dude, it's so I love psychological horror, just like Shutter Island.
00:25:42.160 --> 00:25:43.519
I love those kind of movies.
00:25:44.559 --> 00:25:47.599
I remember watching Shutter Island, and I don't think I understood it.
00:25:47.920 --> 00:25:49.440
Maybe I'd have to watch it again.
00:25:49.680 --> 00:25:53.200
Long story short, Leonardo DiCaprio is a patient.
00:25:53.519 --> 00:25:54.000
Spoiler alert.
00:25:54.079 --> 00:25:55.279
Yeah, spoiler alert, by the way.
00:25:55.359 --> 00:26:02.240
So Leonardo DiCaprio is um he's uh like a patient in an insane asylum kind of thing.
00:26:02.319 --> 00:26:13.759
Yeah, I guess, and he has this mindset that he's a detective still, or he's trying to find out what happened to his wife or something like that, or his kids.
00:26:14.160 --> 00:26:39.759
And so he goes to this island to discover where everything happened or whatever, and he's getting clues as to like what happened, like what his wife did, and like where the kids and all this other stuff, and then he finds out that um, again, it's been a while since I seen it, so I don't know if that's the exact details, but I do know that he does end up like remembering his wife, like he comes home and he sees his wife, and she's like kind of like not herself.
00:26:39.920 --> 00:26:44.319
She's like, uh she goes, Hi honey, how are you doing?
00:26:44.559 --> 00:26:47.440
She's like that, and then he goes, Oh, where are the kids?
00:26:47.599 --> 00:26:48.799
And like, they're in school.
00:26:49.039 --> 00:26:50.640
And he goes, It's Saturday.
00:26:50.960 --> 00:27:04.880
And then he she's like, uh, she turns around and he goes running towards the lake, and they're like, you know, she drowned him, and uh she's just sitting there laughing or smiling or whatever because she's like psychotic.
00:27:04.960 --> 00:27:15.599
Yeah, and then at the end, the cop that's trying to help him, like remember have him remember who he was, and like because they're trying to rehabilitate him to like go back into society and like be normal.
00:27:16.160 --> 00:27:23.920
And at the end, like he realizes that he's uh you know, he's psychotic in a way, like he or he's not psychotic, what is it?
00:27:24.160 --> 00:27:31.519
He he's getting his memories back, and then he's like, So do you think you're ready to return into society?
00:27:31.680 --> 00:27:37.279
And then it the cycle starts over where he's sitting there with the cop and he goes, You know, I don't know, detective.
00:27:37.359 --> 00:27:40.799
I think we gotta try to solve this case about what happened with my wife and the kids.
00:27:41.200 --> 00:27:53.359
Find out, and like I'm like, Oh, so he's still like it's weird because he solves it every time, but then it's like he goes right back to like thinking he's a detective and all this other crap.
00:27:54.000 --> 00:27:55.279
It's weird, but it's really good.
00:27:57.519 --> 00:27:58.960
Maybe it's better on a second watch.
00:27:59.200 --> 00:28:07.759
It's a really good movie, but yeah, so yeah, I would I'd probably say just beating around the bush with a story to a story.
00:28:07.920 --> 00:28:11.039
Probably just ask him after a little bit and just see what's down there in the basement.
00:28:11.119 --> 00:28:11.920
That's what I would do.
00:28:12.079 --> 00:28:15.839
If it if he's coming off as a chill guy, I mean just see what's up, yeah.
00:28:15.920 --> 00:28:19.519
And then and then obviously if he doesn't let you down there, I would be concerned.
00:28:19.599 --> 00:28:20.640
Yeah, then I would be concerned.
00:28:20.720 --> 00:28:22.559
Yeah, if he gets like really just kill him.
00:28:22.640 --> 00:28:24.400
Yeah, then yeah, that's the easy solution.
00:28:24.480 --> 00:28:25.599
Yeah, just be done with it.
00:28:25.680 --> 00:28:26.000
Yep.
00:28:26.160 --> 00:28:28.240
Woo! Woo! Woo!
00:28:28.799 --> 00:28:32.160
All right, Caleb, and now we're on to number two.
00:28:32.400 --> 00:28:32.799
Woo!
00:28:33.680 --> 00:28:44.880
Okay, so I did I since we're coming up on October, I'd have been asking scarier stories and and looking them up so I can so we can you know get a little more interesting.
00:28:44.960 --> 00:28:46.559
You know, we gotta change it up for October.
00:28:46.799 --> 00:28:47.200
We got to.
00:28:47.359 --> 00:28:49.200
In November, we'll have Thanksgiving stories.
00:28:49.359 --> 00:28:49.680
Perfect.
00:28:49.759 --> 00:28:51.680
They all better be turkey-related turkey.
00:28:51.839 --> 00:28:53.519
Turkey related turkey-related, yes.
00:28:54.640 --> 00:28:56.160
I can't talk either.
00:28:56.799 --> 00:28:59.599
I can't say roll, and then you can't say turkey.
00:28:59.759 --> 00:29:00.559
Nope.
00:29:00.799 --> 00:29:08.160
I'm writing in because I need to know whether my girlfriend is mean, whether I'm too sensitive, or whether I was actually possessed by a dead lighthouse keeper.
00:29:08.480 --> 00:29:08.720
Oh.
00:29:08.960 --> 00:29:12.640
And therefore, should be excused for some of my behavior.
00:29:12.960 --> 00:29:14.160
That's so specific.
00:29:14.400 --> 00:29:15.680
That is very specific.
00:29:16.079 --> 00:29:21.279
Not just like I'm possessed by a ghost or possessed by a demon, I'm possessed by a lighthouse keeper ghost.
00:29:21.440 --> 00:29:23.519
Like, that's kind of crazy.
00:29:23.839 --> 00:29:24.079
Yeah.
00:29:24.480 --> 00:29:25.519
It's also funny, though.
00:29:25.839 --> 00:29:28.079
It sounds like some Scooby-Doo crap.
00:29:29.519 --> 00:29:30.400
It does.
00:29:30.720 --> 00:29:34.559
For context, my girlfriend Emma and I are both 28.
00:29:34.720 --> 00:29:38.160
We've been together for three years, and generally speaking, we're good.
00:29:38.400 --> 00:29:41.680
We laugh a lot, we travel well together.
00:29:42.960 --> 00:29:44.559
Generally speaking, we're good.
00:29:44.799 --> 00:29:48.000
Well, he but he ended it like right there, like in the sentence.
00:29:48.240 --> 00:29:50.559
So I was like, I gotta, I gotta, gotta follow the vibe.
00:29:50.720 --> 00:29:53.920
I love the way that you read it though, because it was just like, yeah, we're good.
00:29:54.400 --> 00:29:55.920
Like, just notch a lot.
00:29:57.200 --> 00:30:06.319
We laugh a lot, we travel well together, and neither of us has murdered the other, which I understand is becoming the bare minimum for relationship success.
00:30:06.559 --> 00:30:09.359
That you have to murder somebody, that you don't have to murder somebody.
00:30:09.599 --> 00:30:12.000
Oh, I was like, what are you talking about?
00:30:12.240 --> 00:30:14.559
No wonder he's possessed by a lighthouse keeper.
00:30:14.799 --> 00:30:15.599
Yeah, for real.
00:30:15.839 --> 00:30:19.680
Anyway, he says last October, so this was a while ago that they went in.
00:30:19.839 --> 00:30:20.319
Yeah, it was.
00:30:20.480 --> 00:30:22.960
We took a trip up the coast of Maine.
00:30:23.200 --> 00:30:23.680
Ooh.
00:30:23.920 --> 00:30:26.319
The original plan was supposed to be romantic.
00:30:26.400 --> 00:30:29.759
We ran rented a little cottage near the water, ate seafood.
00:30:29.839 --> 00:30:31.119
Man, these people are rich.
00:30:31.519 --> 00:30:38.559
Walked around old coastal towns and took a drive to an abandoned lighthouse that locals supposedly considered haunted.
00:30:38.799 --> 00:30:39.920
Definitely rich.
00:30:40.160 --> 00:30:40.640
Yeah.
00:30:40.880 --> 00:30:48.160
Because only rich people go into haunted like places and stuff, and like, oh, well, just throw the ghost at 20 and he'll leave me alone.
00:30:49.119 --> 00:30:50.960
I suggested the lighthouse.
00:30:51.200 --> 00:30:53.359
That detail becomes important later.
00:30:54.240 --> 00:30:54.720
Ooh.
00:30:55.200 --> 00:30:57.839
The lighthouse was called Blackwater Point Light.
00:30:57.920 --> 00:30:59.039
I wonder if that's actually a place.
00:30:59.119 --> 00:30:59.440
I wonder.
00:30:59.759 --> 00:31:00.720
This guy better not be lying.
00:31:00.799 --> 00:31:01.359
Yeah, look it up.
00:31:01.680 --> 00:31:02.400
Blackwater what?
00:31:02.799 --> 00:31:04.559
Blackwater point light.
00:31:04.960 --> 00:31:06.720
Blackwater.
00:31:07.119 --> 00:31:09.599
Oh, and he says, although I'm pretty sure that wasn't his real name.
00:31:13.519 --> 00:31:14.720
Blackwater point what?
00:31:15.039 --> 00:31:15.519
Light.
00:31:22.240 --> 00:31:23.039
Uh light.
00:31:23.359 --> 00:31:24.720
Maybe it's just lighthouse.
00:31:24.960 --> 00:31:25.839
Let me try that.
00:31:26.400 --> 00:31:27.359
Lighthouse.
00:31:30.079 --> 00:31:32.640
Little Sable Point lighthouse, but that's in Michigan.
00:31:32.720 --> 00:31:34.720
Why did it default to that?
00:31:35.440 --> 00:31:36.480
And it's in Maine?
00:31:37.119 --> 00:31:37.599
Yeah.
00:31:37.839 --> 00:31:40.880
And he does say, although I'm pretty sure that wasn't its real name.
00:31:41.119 --> 00:31:43.119
Yeah, I was gonna say, because there's a lot of lighthouses.
00:31:43.200 --> 00:31:45.759
There's like Rockland Breakwater Lighthouse, Fort Point.
00:31:46.400 --> 00:31:49.200
Is there is there East Harbor Light Station?
00:31:49.680 --> 00:31:51.200
East Harbor Light Station?
00:31:51.440 --> 00:31:57.920
Yeah, because he says the real name was something boring like East Harbor Light Station, but he also doesn't even know if that's the correct one.
00:31:58.400 --> 00:32:01.599
There's like, I don't know, at least the the few that are listed.
00:32:01.680 --> 00:32:21.279
There's uh Rockland Breakwater, there's uh Pemaquid Point, Bass Harbor Headlight Station, Portland Headlight, Little River Lighthouse, which actually looks pretty cool, Curtis Island, Westcotty Headlight, uh, and then Owl's Head.
00:32:21.839 --> 00:32:28.799
Um, yeah, Goat Island, burnt coat, harbor, burnt uh little river lighthouse.
00:32:28.880 --> 00:32:29.440
Does look cool.
00:32:29.759 --> 00:32:31.279
Bud Light Lighthouse.
00:32:31.519 --> 00:32:32.799
That's an actual one.
00:32:32.960 --> 00:32:33.279
Wow.
00:32:33.440 --> 00:32:34.960
That one's in South Portland.
00:32:35.920 --> 00:32:42.000
Squirrel Point, Boone Island, Ram Island Ledge Light Station.
00:32:42.240 --> 00:32:44.799
Yeah, the list goes on, ladies and gentlemen.
00:32:44.960 --> 00:32:45.759
It does.
00:32:46.000 --> 00:32:50.720
So he says the lighthouse was called Blackwater Point Light, although I'm pretty sure that wasn't its real name.
00:32:50.880 --> 00:32:56.319
The real name was something boring like East Harbor Light Station, but yeah, I don't think that's even correct.
00:32:56.960 --> 00:33:04.480
But a guy at the diner told us that everyone called it Blackwater because, and I quote, that's where the dead come back.
00:33:05.440 --> 00:33:06.960
Emma loved that.
00:33:07.200 --> 00:33:11.519
She looked at me and said, See, you finally planned something interesting.
00:33:11.759 --> 00:33:12.400
Wow.
00:33:12.720 --> 00:33:15.920
I would be hurt by that if my girlfriend was like, You finally planned something interesting.
00:33:16.160 --> 00:33:19.839
Yeah, if she just said that after three years of being together, I'm just like, bro.
00:33:20.319 --> 00:33:20.720
Like, thanks.
00:33:20.799 --> 00:33:22.480
All the other dates meant nothing, I guess.
00:33:22.720 --> 00:33:24.240
Thanks for this romantic trip.
00:33:24.400 --> 00:33:27.599
You know, you just kind of like slammed the door in my face on that one.
00:33:27.839 --> 00:33:28.480
For real.
00:33:28.799 --> 00:33:29.519
Gross.
00:33:29.839 --> 00:33:32.160
I had planned the entire trip.
00:33:32.319 --> 00:33:36.799
She had spent the previous two days complaining that I packed the wrong sweater.
00:33:37.119 --> 00:33:39.279
Anyway, I don't know why that detail was in there.
00:33:39.519 --> 00:33:42.000
We drove out there around sunset.
00:33:42.240 --> 00:33:48.480
The lighthouse sat at the end of a rocky peninsula surrounded by scrubby trees and ocean.
00:33:48.720 --> 00:33:51.200
There was an old keeper's house beside it.
00:33:51.359 --> 00:33:52.160
All boarded up.
00:33:52.640 --> 00:33:53.920
An old keeper's house.
00:33:54.319 --> 00:33:57.440
All boarded up, windows and peeling white paint.
00:33:57.680 --> 00:33:59.680
There was a sign on the gate.
00:34:00.000 --> 00:34:01.680
No trespassing.
00:34:02.000 --> 00:34:03.440
Structure unsafe.
00:34:03.759 --> 00:34:05.279
Emma looked at the sign.
00:34:05.440 --> 00:34:06.640
Then she looked at me.
00:34:06.880 --> 00:34:08.079
Let's do it.
00:34:08.480 --> 00:34:10.159
Literally is what's gonna happen.
00:34:10.400 --> 00:34:12.880
Then she said, Well, I said, Well, what?
00:34:13.039 --> 00:34:14.800
She said, Aren't you going to open it?
00:34:14.880 --> 00:34:16.159
I pointed at the sign.
00:34:16.320 --> 00:34:19.840
She said, Oh my goodness, you're actually afraid of a sign.
00:34:20.480 --> 00:34:25.119
That's how I learned that my girlfriend believes property law is a form of cowardice.
00:34:26.239 --> 00:34:27.599
Dude, why is it though?
00:34:27.679 --> 00:34:30.239
It's like, okay, can I be like for real?
00:34:30.719 --> 00:34:37.679
Every girl that I've even run into, friend or relationship, has always done something stupid like that.
00:34:37.840 --> 00:34:39.519
Like it's like, beware a dog.
00:34:39.679 --> 00:34:41.440
Oh my god, the dog's so cute.
00:34:42.239 --> 00:34:46.480
Like the dog just attacks them or whatever, and it's like, oh, that dog doesn't look friendly.
00:34:46.639 --> 00:34:48.400
No, it's got rabies coming out of it.
00:34:48.559 --> 00:34:49.760
Of course, it's not friendly.
00:34:50.000 --> 00:34:52.960
And then there's like one that's like, don't feed the animals or something like that.
00:34:53.039 --> 00:34:55.679
And there's like, oh, I don't think they'll mind the hot dog.
00:34:56.079 --> 00:34:58.320
And it's like in the lion's den kind of area.
00:34:58.400 --> 00:35:02.159
And they're just like, oh my god, this chick, she's gonna kill me.
00:35:04.239 --> 00:35:04.639
I don't know.
00:35:04.719 --> 00:35:12.320
I don't know why they always seem because like, especially around like a guy like they're either seeing or like friends with that's like, oh yeah, he could take it on.
00:35:12.400 --> 00:35:14.079
Yeah, I can take on a 600-pound lion.
00:35:14.400 --> 00:35:15.199
I don't want to take it on.
00:35:15.360 --> 00:35:16.800
No, I don't want to take it on either.
00:35:16.880 --> 00:35:18.159
I'm gonna take on me.
00:35:18.559 --> 00:35:21.119
Take on me.
00:35:22.079 --> 00:35:23.599
Take on me.
00:35:24.079 --> 00:35:24.559
Anyway.
00:35:24.719 --> 00:35:26.960
That was a lovely rendition of Take On Thank me.
00:35:27.360 --> 00:35:28.159
What is it actually called?
00:35:28.320 --> 00:35:29.519
I think it's called Take On Me.
00:35:29.760 --> 00:35:31.440
Take on Me by uh Stefan.
00:35:31.599 --> 00:35:32.719
So congratulations, everybody.
00:35:32.800 --> 00:35:33.760
Well, we gotta get the crowd.
00:35:33.840 --> 00:35:34.639
The crowd heard that, right?
00:35:34.800 --> 00:35:36.079
Yep, yep, yep, yep.
00:35:42.159 --> 00:35:44.559
I love that guy screaming.
00:35:48.079 --> 00:35:49.679
We climbed over the gate.
00:35:49.840 --> 00:35:52.880
I want to emphasize that I was the reluctant one.
00:35:53.199 --> 00:35:55.119
Emma was practically skipping.
00:35:55.280 --> 00:35:57.199
The lighthouse itself was enormous.
00:35:57.360 --> 00:35:59.119
The door was hanging slightly open.
00:35:59.199 --> 00:36:01.039
I guarantee it was not, but whatever.
00:36:01.440 --> 00:36:03.920
They're always like chained up and locked.
00:36:04.159 --> 00:36:05.679
Yeah, it's like, oh, it's open.
00:36:05.760 --> 00:36:07.119
We can go inside.
00:36:08.159 --> 00:36:10.880
And there was a rusty spiral staircase inside.
00:36:11.119 --> 00:36:11.679
Of course.
00:36:11.840 --> 00:36:12.239
Yeah.
00:36:12.400 --> 00:36:14.880
This guy is just reading out of a movie at this point.
00:36:15.199 --> 00:36:21.599
Of course, though, in the actual lighthouses, though, they are spiral stale, uh stale stale cases.
00:36:21.920 --> 00:36:23.519
I can't speak either.
00:36:23.679 --> 00:36:24.960
Like staircases.
00:36:25.039 --> 00:36:27.840
They are because they wrap around the structure of the lighthouse.
00:36:28.159 --> 00:36:28.400
Yeah.
00:36:28.719 --> 00:36:29.280
Pretty cool.
00:36:29.920 --> 00:36:32.559
I wish they were still in operation, but most of them are shut down.
00:36:33.119 --> 00:36:35.039
Yeah, because isn't the one in Grand Haven?
00:36:35.119 --> 00:36:36.159
That one's shut down, I think.
00:36:36.400 --> 00:36:40.239
I mean, it still does it, but I don't think anybody lives in there like how they used to back there.
00:36:40.400 --> 00:36:42.159
I think it'd be so cool to be lighthouse keep.
00:36:42.320 --> 00:36:48.239
Maybe it actually sucks, but there's well, there's some jobs like they're out kind of in the middle of the ocean, like not super far.
00:36:48.480 --> 00:36:52.239
Like you can see land and stuff like that, but you know what I mean?
00:36:52.400 --> 00:36:52.639
Yeah.
00:36:52.800 --> 00:37:04.000
Like it's way out there, but you're also it if the elements like if you have a big hurricane or a storm, or like if a ship doesn't see you and it hits your lighthouse, you're done.
00:37:04.400 --> 00:37:10.480
But you get paid stupid amount of money to like go out there and live there for I think like three months.
00:37:11.119 --> 00:37:18.239
Like, I think it's oh I think it's like six figures, something like that, like two hundred thousand dollars just for like three months of being there.
00:37:19.039 --> 00:37:27.119
Hey, because you're also in charge of like the light bulb or anything else that happens there, but like you don't really have any reception, you just have like an emergency phone and all that other stuff.
00:37:27.760 --> 00:37:30.400
I would practice my artwork at that point for three months.
00:37:30.719 --> 00:37:31.519
That's what I would do.
00:37:31.760 --> 00:37:33.599
Yeah, I could do music stuff, I would do it.
00:37:34.239 --> 00:37:35.360
Maybe I'll have to look into it.
00:37:35.679 --> 00:37:36.159
True.
00:37:36.800 --> 00:37:40.559
Uh the moment we stepped in, the door slammed shut behind us.
00:37:40.960 --> 00:37:41.840
Emma jumped.
00:37:42.000 --> 00:37:42.719
I jumped.
00:37:42.880 --> 00:37:45.039
She immediately said, Did you push me?
00:37:45.519 --> 00:37:45.840
No.
00:37:46.159 --> 00:37:47.599
You definitely pushed me.
00:37:48.159 --> 00:37:50.079
Emma, I was three feet away from you.
00:37:50.239 --> 00:37:51.920
This is them speaking back and forth, by the way.
00:37:52.079 --> 00:37:52.400
Yeah.
00:37:52.639 --> 00:37:55.280
Okay, then why did I feel someone touch my back?
00:37:55.760 --> 00:37:57.760
At this point, I thought maybe we should leave.
00:37:58.320 --> 00:38:03.119
Instead, she smiled and said, This is awesome.
00:38:03.920 --> 00:38:05.440
So we started climbing.
00:38:05.599 --> 00:38:07.599
The lighthouse was freezing inside.
00:38:07.760 --> 00:38:10.239
Not regular Maine and October freezing.
00:38:10.320 --> 00:38:12.880
I mean freezing in a way that felt unnatural.
00:38:13.519 --> 00:38:17.440
Every few steps we heard this faint creaking sound above us.
00:38:17.840 --> 00:38:19.360
Creak, creak.
00:38:19.760 --> 00:38:20.639
Did they really creak?
00:38:20.960 --> 00:38:21.519
Creak.
00:38:21.920 --> 00:38:23.119
Yeah, there's three creaks.
00:38:23.519 --> 00:38:24.559
Oh my gosh.
00:38:24.800 --> 00:38:26.719
I asked Emma if she heard it.
00:38:26.880 --> 00:38:28.079
She said, Yeah.
00:38:28.559 --> 00:38:31.119
I said, What do you think it is?
00:38:31.360 --> 00:38:33.519
She said, probably the lighthouse.
00:38:33.760 --> 00:38:36.159
I said, Why would the lighthouse be creaking?
00:38:36.320 --> 00:38:41.440
She stopped, looked at me, and said, What exactly do you want me to say here, Brian?
00:38:42.000 --> 00:38:43.199
I said, His name's Brian.
00:38:43.280 --> 00:38:44.480
We just know we just figured that out.
00:38:45.280 --> 00:38:46.960
Why didn't he start it off with like my name's Brian?
00:38:47.039 --> 00:38:47.679
Her name's Emma.
00:38:47.840 --> 00:38:54.079
Yeah, I was gonna say, if he was trying to keep his name a mystery, like he just ruined it by like doxing himself in the story.
00:38:55.119 --> 00:38:56.960
I said, nothing, forget it.
00:38:57.119 --> 00:38:58.400
We kept going.
00:38:58.800 --> 00:39:00.960
About halfway up, we found an old room.
00:39:01.119 --> 00:39:06.480
There was a desk inside covered in dust with an ancient logbook sitting on it.
00:39:07.519 --> 00:39:09.039
Emma immediately grabbed it.
00:39:09.199 --> 00:39:10.320
I said, Don't touch that.
00:39:10.480 --> 00:39:11.519
She said, Why?
00:39:11.840 --> 00:39:13.039
Because it's old.
00:39:13.199 --> 00:39:15.039
That's generally how history works.
00:39:15.199 --> 00:39:16.320
She opened it.
00:39:16.559 --> 00:39:22.880
Most of the pages were blank, but the last sev several entries were written in faded black ink.
00:39:23.119 --> 00:39:24.960
The handwriting was shaky.
00:39:25.199 --> 00:39:27.760
One entry said, October 17th.
00:39:28.000 --> 00:39:29.360
The light went out again.
00:39:29.519 --> 00:39:31.440
I hear footsteps below.
00:39:31.760 --> 00:39:33.119
But screw that.
00:39:33.360 --> 00:39:37.199
Yeah, but I also feel like lighthouses aren't in commission anymore.
00:39:37.280 --> 00:39:38.000
Maybe they are in Maine.
00:39:38.079 --> 00:39:38.400
I don't know.
00:39:38.480 --> 00:39:40.000
If you're from Maine, let us know, please.
00:39:40.159 --> 00:39:52.639
I I would still think like maybe not so much as the like onshore ones, but maybe the offshore ones, like that are like in areas where there's really tall rocks or reefs in the area, like in the ocean.
00:39:53.039 --> 00:39:57.199
And they did say he did say it was on like a peninsula with like rocks and trees and stuff.
00:39:57.440 --> 00:39:58.639
Yeah, scrubby trees.
00:39:58.880 --> 00:40:04.400
Because I don't think the lighthouse in like Grand Haven, for example, is active.
00:40:04.559 --> 00:40:07.360
I think it's just there for like you know what aesthetics, yeah.
00:40:07.440 --> 00:40:08.239
Yeah, aesthetics.
00:40:08.320 --> 00:40:16.960
Because you have boats coming in and out, maybe during Coast Guard, maybe like when they have like the big navy ships and all that other stuff coming in.
00:40:17.119 --> 00:40:20.880
But I don't think yeah, maybe maybe this one still is.
00:40:20.960 --> 00:40:21.360
I don't know.
00:40:21.519 --> 00:40:21.679
Right.
00:40:21.760 --> 00:40:23.519
You know, you know, you never know.
00:40:23.920 --> 00:40:25.119
October 19.
00:40:25.519 --> 00:40:27.920
Someone is knocking from inside the walls.
00:40:28.079 --> 00:40:28.639
Ooh.
00:40:30.480 --> 00:40:30.960
Nope.
00:40:31.280 --> 00:40:33.440
The next October 21st.
00:40:33.599 --> 00:40:36.000
If you hear your name, do not answer.
00:40:36.559 --> 00:40:37.440
My birthday.
00:40:37.679 --> 00:40:39.360
Yeah, you're gonna be 34.
00:40:39.679 --> 00:40:40.800
34, yep.
00:40:41.280 --> 00:40:42.159
I'm old.
00:40:42.400 --> 00:40:44.639
Yeah, that's almost halfway to 40.
00:40:44.880 --> 00:40:45.840
I can retire.
00:40:46.559 --> 00:40:48.960
Collect my social security benefit.
00:40:49.199 --> 00:40:51.840
You know, collect$2,000 a month.
00:40:52.159 --> 00:40:52.800
Hey.
00:40:53.440 --> 00:40:57.360
Yeah, and then also, too, it's funny because uh Yeah, I don't know.
00:40:57.440 --> 00:41:03.440
If I'm I'm sorry, but even if I if like well, because obviously they can have access to the lighthouse, so it's on shore.
00:41:03.760 --> 00:41:05.360
This lighthouse that they're going into.
00:41:05.440 --> 00:41:05.599
Yeah.
00:41:05.840 --> 00:41:09.840
So yeah, if he's saying, like, oh, I'm hearing footsteps from below because I had to change the light bulb.
00:41:09.920 --> 00:41:16.960
I'm like, yeah, I probably would think somebody broke in, and if I'm at the top and my only way is to go down, screw that.
00:41:17.039 --> 00:41:20.480
If I'm hearing footsteps, or it could just be people writing it as a prank.
00:41:20.719 --> 00:41:21.119
That is true.
00:41:21.280 --> 00:41:21.760
You never know.
00:41:22.000 --> 00:41:23.039
That is true.
00:41:23.519 --> 00:41:25.280
Emma read that one out loud.
00:41:25.440 --> 00:41:27.199
Then she looked at me, Brian.
00:41:27.360 --> 00:41:28.960
I said, very funny.
00:41:29.280 --> 00:41:30.559
I didn't say that.
00:41:30.719 --> 00:41:31.599
Yes, you did.
00:41:31.760 --> 00:41:33.199
She said, No, I didn't.
00:41:33.360 --> 00:41:34.639
We both went silent.
00:41:34.800 --> 00:41:37.039
Then from somewhere below us, we heard a voice.
00:41:37.280 --> 00:41:38.079
Brian.
00:41:38.800 --> 00:41:39.679
Now I'm scared.
00:41:39.920 --> 00:41:41.840
What if it was like in Stewie Griffin's voice?
00:41:42.000 --> 00:41:42.800
Brian.
00:41:45.440 --> 00:41:49.199
Yeah, I was just playing on the TV downstairs or something.
00:41:49.519 --> 00:41:51.280
I nearly fell through the floor.
00:41:51.519 --> 00:41:52.880
Emma grabbed my arm.
00:41:53.039 --> 00:41:56.639
For one beautiful second, I thought she was frightened and wanted to leave.
00:41:56.880 --> 00:42:00.880
Instead, she whispered, Wow, it knows your name.
00:42:01.119 --> 00:42:03.679
I said, Emma, we need to go.
00:42:04.000 --> 00:42:05.679
She said, Relax.
00:42:06.239 --> 00:42:08.000
Something just said my name.
00:42:08.239 --> 00:42:09.599
Maybe it likes you.
00:42:09.920 --> 00:42:11.519
Why would a ghost like me?
00:42:11.760 --> 00:42:12.480
She shrugged.
00:42:12.719 --> 00:42:13.760
Sorry, Andy's calling me.
00:42:13.840 --> 00:42:14.559
I gotta hang up.
00:42:15.599 --> 00:42:16.800
It was like distracting me.
00:42:16.960 --> 00:42:17.920
Oh no, you're good.
00:42:18.159 --> 00:42:18.880
She shrugged.
00:42:19.039 --> 00:42:20.639
Maybe it feels sorry for you.
00:42:21.280 --> 00:42:22.960
I wish I were exaggerating.
00:42:23.039 --> 00:42:25.760
We started back down, and this is where things got weird.
00:42:26.000 --> 00:42:27.840
The door at the bottom was gone.
00:42:28.000 --> 00:42:28.880
Not locked.
00:42:29.119 --> 00:42:29.519
Gone.
00:42:29.679 --> 00:42:32.159
There was just a stone wall where the doorway had been.
00:42:32.320 --> 00:42:34.239
Okay, this guy's making stuff up.
00:42:34.880 --> 00:42:36.239
Emma stared at it.
00:42:36.559 --> 00:42:37.599
I stared at it.
00:42:37.760 --> 00:42:39.440
I said, that wasn't like that before.
00:42:39.519 --> 00:42:40.719
She said, obviously.
00:42:40.960 --> 00:42:42.320
I said, what do we do?
00:42:42.480 --> 00:42:44.880
She said, find another exit.
00:42:46.159 --> 00:42:47.760
What the heck is going on?
00:42:48.079 --> 00:42:50.639
So then he says, we finally got out of there.
00:42:51.280 --> 00:42:53.199
But and made it to safety.
00:42:53.280 --> 00:42:54.400
But I need to know.
00:42:54.639 --> 00:42:58.000
Is my girlfriend basically like what he said at the beginning?
00:42:58.559 --> 00:43:00.480
Possessed by a lighthousekeeper?
00:43:00.719 --> 00:43:02.800
Yeah, he is my girlfriend mean.
00:43:02.960 --> 00:43:04.000
Am I too sensitive?
00:43:04.079 --> 00:43:06.559
Or was he possessed by a lighthouse keeper?
00:43:07.519 --> 00:43:10.159
I don't think he was possessed by a lighthouse keeper.
00:43:10.320 --> 00:43:16.239
Because if he was possessed, he would literally be like talking to however old this building is.
00:43:16.400 --> 00:43:17.119
You know what I mean?
00:43:17.280 --> 00:43:17.440
Yeah.
00:43:17.679 --> 00:43:19.920
Because they did also didn't say the date of like the journal.
00:43:20.079 --> 00:43:20.639
You know what I mean?
00:43:20.719 --> 00:43:26.559
Because it could have been for all we know, it could have been like last year, or it could have been like, you know, 200 years ago.
00:43:27.599 --> 00:43:32.159
Well, I think the journal was written in was written either that year or last year.
00:43:32.320 --> 00:43:34.400
Because they went there last year in October.
00:43:34.639 --> 00:43:34.800
Yeah.
00:43:35.039 --> 00:43:38.800
But yeah, but then again, yeah, they said the ink was like faded.
00:43:38.960 --> 00:43:41.119
Yeah, so I'm like wondering what era.
00:43:41.360 --> 00:43:45.280
Like it could have been 1876 or it could have been 1972.
00:43:45.360 --> 00:43:46.239
You know what I mean?
00:43:46.480 --> 00:43:48.639
Now the stone wall part, I don't believe.
00:43:48.880 --> 00:43:49.599
Yeah, I don't either.
00:43:49.760 --> 00:43:51.360
I think that's just a lot of scraps.
00:43:51.679 --> 00:43:54.559
I think he's embellishing his story a bit.
00:43:54.880 --> 00:43:59.760
But the rest of the stuff, like the steps from downstairs, yeah, it could have been someone pranking.
00:44:00.320 --> 00:44:10.159
Them and like the names would scare me, is like the names will scare me too, but they could have just been imagining it, especially after reading a book that says, If you hear your name, don't answer it.
00:44:10.320 --> 00:44:14.320
Yeah, and then also, too, like, yeah, as soon as you hear that, your imagination kind of takes off.
00:44:14.400 --> 00:44:17.840
So then, like, you your brain can trick you into thinking like somebody said your name.
00:44:17.920 --> 00:44:22.480
Like, I could just be sitting here and randomly in the podcast just go Caleb, and you're like, What?
00:44:22.639 --> 00:44:24.159
And I'm like, I didn't say Caleb.
00:44:24.320 --> 00:44:29.280
And then you go back in the audio, like when you're like editing and stuff, and then it's like I didn't say it.
00:44:29.360 --> 00:44:31.760
It was like in a different, like groggly voice or something.
00:44:32.000 --> 00:44:33.440
Oh my gosh, that freaked me out.
00:44:33.599 --> 00:44:35.039
That would do, yeah.
00:44:35.280 --> 00:44:42.320
Um, but everything else I think is maybe somewhat plausible for something happening, but yeah, but his stone wall is main stupid, yeah.
00:44:42.400 --> 00:44:43.360
The stone wall is stupid.
00:44:43.519 --> 00:44:47.199
Like they would come up with like when he was said the door was gone, I was believing it.
00:44:47.360 --> 00:44:47.679
Yeah.
00:44:47.840 --> 00:44:51.920
But then when he just said the door was replaced with a stone wall, that's when I was like, okay.
00:44:52.159 --> 00:45:11.440
Unless it's like, well, the only thing I can like maybe justify with it is like so, depending on what the material the lighthouse is made out of, if he said brick or something like that, like it was replaced by like just a brick wall or something, like and this lighthouse was you know built with brick, maybe that would be more plausible.
00:45:11.679 --> 00:45:15.280
Yeah, but how do you get how do you get a brick wall in the doorway that fast?
00:45:15.519 --> 00:45:16.639
Right, that's what I'm saying.
00:45:16.719 --> 00:45:18.960
Is like, or maybe they just got disoriented.
00:45:19.199 --> 00:45:23.920
Because like again, their their imagination is going so wild that they're just like, where's the door?
00:45:24.159 --> 00:45:29.199
Yeah, and they could have been on a different floor, and then all of a sudden, right, and then there's like, oh crap, you know?
00:45:30.159 --> 00:45:31.280
Like zonings.
00:45:33.840 --> 00:45:34.880
Oh man.
00:45:35.920 --> 00:45:40.719
Yeah, um, I don't think that I don't I definitely don't think he's possessed.
00:45:40.880 --> 00:45:40.960
No.
00:45:41.360 --> 00:45:42.880
I don't know if his girlfriend's mean.
00:45:43.199 --> 00:45:54.000
I mean, it sounds like she's just like pranking him a little bit, but I guess if he was genuinely freaking out and she kept doing it, maybe that could be kind of mean.
00:45:54.159 --> 00:45:56.320
But I don't know.
00:45:56.559 --> 00:46:00.320
I don't know where you draw the line with like pranking each other in a relationship.
00:46:00.719 --> 00:46:04.719
I think if it goes to the point of murder, that's probably too much of a prank.
00:46:05.840 --> 00:46:14.320
Because yeah, it's like didn't they say like something like what or no, they didn't say anything like happened to the lighthouse or like with history other than like the what was read in the journal?
00:46:14.480 --> 00:46:14.800
Yeah.
00:46:14.960 --> 00:46:17.280
So it didn't say like somebody died or anything like that.
00:46:17.360 --> 00:46:19.760
Because like at that point, then it's like ooh, you know.
00:46:20.239 --> 00:46:23.760
But yeah, the the creeks would freak me out for sure.
00:46:24.079 --> 00:46:25.360
Yeah, creeks are always scary.
00:46:25.519 --> 00:46:26.880
Yeah, are we scary?
00:46:27.280 --> 00:46:40.320
Well, yeah, and then I think I think one time I said on the podcast, but the old Penn Penn Street house that we used to live in with the paranormal activity thing that I encountered, that was terrifying because it sounded like like boot steps.
00:46:40.559 --> 00:46:41.760
Yeah, that house was scary.
00:46:41.920 --> 00:46:42.639
I'm not gonna lie.
00:46:42.880 --> 00:46:48.719
That house I think I did like a research on, like historically, and I think it did say something somebody died in that house.
00:46:48.880 --> 00:46:59.760
Like, I think it was literally like what I expected is it was somebody pushed somebody down the stairs, and then like they they fell down and then like they murdered them downstairs in the in the living room area.
00:47:00.639 --> 00:47:01.119
Stefan?
00:47:01.280 --> 00:47:01.920
Yeah, it was weird.
00:47:02.079 --> 00:47:10.719
Well, because it was obviously like either a husband and wife or like a wife or girl lived in that house and somebody broke in through the the top, you know, second floor, and then yeah.
00:47:11.280 --> 00:47:14.079
But the the basement was the creepiest part about that house.
00:47:14.159 --> 00:47:15.199
That was terrifying.
00:47:15.840 --> 00:47:18.000
Um yeah.
00:47:18.559 --> 00:47:20.000
So I don't know.
00:47:20.320 --> 00:47:36.719
I still don't believe that he was possessed because when I think of possession, I'm thinking like they're gonna start speaking exactly like even if it's like old English or something like that, like whatever time frame that journal was written, like they're like, Thou art should not be here, you know, that kind of thing.
00:47:36.880 --> 00:47:46.559
Yeah, or if like they're literally like flying in the air, like going, ooh, you know, that kind of possession.
00:47:47.360 --> 00:47:50.880
You know, gotta keep it spooky, you know, because it's the October season almost.
00:47:51.280 --> 00:47:53.199
It is the October season, almost.
00:47:53.440 --> 00:47:53.840
Almost.
00:47:54.239 --> 00:47:55.280
We're still in September.
00:47:55.519 --> 00:47:59.599
Yeah, this will this will come out still in September.
00:47:59.679 --> 00:48:01.519
I was like, maybe this will come out in October.
00:48:01.920 --> 00:48:14.559
We should do if people have I think more scary stories, like e regardless if they're like romantic or not, like for dating advice or maybe even dating, but it's scary.
00:48:14.639 --> 00:48:17.360
I think that would be cool to hear for the month of October.
00:48:17.920 --> 00:48:27.280
Like if you guys have scary relationship stories where maybe you found out your your significant other was a serial killer, or you found out that they eat cereal with a fork.
00:48:27.519 --> 00:48:29.679
Doesn't matter how scary it is.
00:48:29.920 --> 00:48:32.320
I could, yeah, I could we can definitely ask for that.
00:48:32.480 --> 00:48:36.079
If you know anybody, tell them to send them in, or I can search for them too.
00:48:36.480 --> 00:48:42.880
Or what these people could do is maybe give us a call and then we could like actually hear them through the emotions.
00:48:44.239 --> 00:48:45.599
That would be actually kind of cool.
00:48:45.679 --> 00:48:46.719
I still want that to happen.
00:48:47.280 --> 00:48:47.760
Yeah, I know.
00:48:47.840 --> 00:48:59.440
I think we need to get a little bit more popular that eventually I need to start doing video again so people know who we are and put it on YouTube so we're like more of like in the community or whatever you want to call it.
00:48:59.679 --> 00:49:04.159
We're two obese males and we live in his parents' basement.
00:49:04.480 --> 00:49:06.159
Yeah, we literally cannot make fun of you.
00:49:06.320 --> 00:49:08.480
Yeah, we we can't even get up out of the chairs right now.
00:49:08.559 --> 00:49:12.320
Like, we've been here all week, like playing like uh World of Warcraft pretty much.
00:49:12.719 --> 00:49:22.719
Yeah, and we have to wait till we burn off the calories from the drinks because when we drink the Mountain Dew, the the Arizona that extra calories keeps us from getting up off these chairs.
00:49:23.119 --> 00:49:23.760
Exactly.
00:49:24.000 --> 00:49:24.480
We yeah.
00:49:24.719 --> 00:49:26.880
I've got cankel game for days.
00:49:29.199 --> 00:49:33.199
Um, but yeah, I don't think uh I don't think that you were possessed.
00:49:33.440 --> 00:49:37.119
I don't know, don't really think that your girlfriend was necessarily that mean.
00:49:37.280 --> 00:49:41.920
I think maybe you're just too sensitive or you just shouldn't go to creepy places like that at night.
00:49:42.239 --> 00:49:43.039
Yeah, probably not.
00:49:43.119 --> 00:49:45.519
Um, you know, especially when they say don't trespass.
00:49:45.840 --> 00:49:48.880
You know, there's yeah, there is a reason why those signs are put up.
00:49:48.960 --> 00:49:49.280
Yep.
00:49:49.679 --> 00:49:50.079
Yep.
00:49:50.320 --> 00:49:52.639
Just uh keep that in mind.
00:49:55.760 --> 00:49:58.719
You almost did like a Donald Trump impression there for a minute.
00:49:58.880 --> 00:50:01.360
Just uh don't go through there.
00:50:01.519 --> 00:50:03.599
Swear to God, everybody's talking about it.
00:50:03.679 --> 00:50:05.119
