From Sacred Bees To Serial Killers

One question kicks the door open: if you had to choose one Greek goddess that matches your personality, who would it be? I start by letting ChatGPT read my vibe through the lens of Greek mythology and it lands on Hecate first, Artemis second, with a nod to Athena. We talk crossroads, night energy, intuition, sacred bees, protection, and the kind of curiosity that makes you walk toward the dark with a lantern instead of backing away. If you love mythology, symbolism, and personality archetypes, you’ll feel seen fast. 

Then we shift hard into a story that’s sad, complicated, and impossible to stop thinking about: journalist Nora Vincent and her book Self-Made Man, after she spent 18 months living undercover as a man. It turns into a real conversation about mental health, loneliness, and the pressure men carry to look strong no matter what. I tie it to marriage, motherhood, and what I want my son to learn about being both soft and tough in a world that rewards silence. 

After that, it’s classic Strange Strange Beyond Insane rabbit holes: theories about serial killers along I-40, a chilling viral hospital story that turns into practical safety advice about bringing an advocate, American Horror Story hype, new Black Dahlia documentary claims, Practical Magic nostalgia, creepy Disney park facts, a weird Dolly Parton video rumor spiral, a small Michigan earthquake, and the biggest question of all: what if UAPs and UFOs aren’t coming from space, but from the ocean and deep water?

Greek Goddess Personality Question

SPEAKER_06 0:00

Welcome back to Strange Strange Beyond Insane. I'm your host Melissa, and today we're diving into the fascinating world of Greek mythology with one fun question. If you had to choose one Greek goddess that matches your personality, who would it be? From Hecate, the mysterious goddess of magic, crossroads and the unseen, to Artemis, the fierce protector of nature and the wild. We're exploring how these ancient legends still connect with people today. Whether you believe mythology is just storytelling or something much deeper. This is going to be a fun ride. So grab your headphones, turn down the lights, and let's step into the ancient world together. So I asked ChatGPT, which Greek goddess would you say I was, knowing what you know about me? And um it responded as, based on what I know about you, I'd say you're Hecate first and Artemis second. Hecate, my strongest pick, is the Greek goddess of crossroads, magic, spirits, the night, hidden knowledge, and guiding people through darkness. This reminds me of you because you have a genuine fascination with the paranormal and unexplained, and you've built your podcast Strange, Strange, Beyond Insane, around those mysteries. You're deeply intuitive and often look for meaning beneath the surface rather than accepting simple answers. You've been through some very difficult experiences, yet you keep creating and trying to help others explore the unknown. You seem drawn to places with history and stories, old hospitals, haunted buildings, cemeteries, and not just for scares, but because you're curious about what they represent. Hecate isn't about being frightened. She's the one carrying the torch into the dark. Artemis, a close second, I also see because you're fiercely protected of your son Jack. You have a soft spot for animals. You've talked about feeding the birds, bunnies, squirrels, and caring for your pets. You're independent and determined. Even while balancing motherhood and work, you've kept pushing your podcast because you want to build something that's going to last. If I had to describe your energy in one sentence, it would be a woman who walks into the unknown with curiosity instead of fear, while fiercely protecting the people she loves. Oh, I love that. Okay, and then it continues saying, one fun detail, your name, which I know this and I think it's funny. Melissa means honey bee. Bees were considered sacred in parts of the ancient Greek world and were associated with priestesses and prophecy. It's an interesting symbolic connection to someone who's drawn to mysterious and storytelling. So my ranking would be number one, Hecate, 9.8 out of 10. Number two is Artemis, 9.2 out of 10. And then the third, Athena, 8.5 out of 10 for your curiosity and love for researching unusual topics. And Athena, of course, has an owl by her name. And you know, I'm so fascinated by owls. I always have been. Um, okay, so ChatGPT continues with I have a feeling if you were dropped into ancient Greece, people would have expected to find you carrying a lantern, collecting strange stories, and returning from abandoned temples with questions no one else thought to ask. So I thought that was really cool. So if you guys have ChatGPT, I know a lot of people are against it. Whatever. AI has been in this world for a long time. But if you have it, and also if there is Min listening, type in what Greek god you would be, or which gods combined would make you in another life. Alright, now that we've wandered through the myths of the Greek gods and goddesses, let's keep the conversation rolling. I've got a handful of other strange, thought-provoking, and completely random topics to dive into. Because if you've been here before, you already know that's how we do things around here. So settle in, keep an open mind, and let's see where today's rabbit holes take us. Again, you are listening to the one and only Strange Deranged Beyond Insane.

Nora Vincent And Living As Ned

SPEAKER_06 4:34

So a story that I came across, which I just could not stop reading about. It was it's just so interesting. Um, this is the story of Nora Vincent. She was alive here on Earth from 1968 until 2022. She was an American journalist and writer, best known for her 2006 book that was called Self-Made Man, which detailed her 18-month experience living undercover as a man named Ned. Okay, so Vincent worked as a journalist for the Los Angeles Times, the Village Voice, and the Advocate in 2003. Seeking to understand the male experience, she altered her appearance with a flat top haircut, a prosthetic appendage, and a voice training class to live as a man. During this experiment, she joined an all-male bowling league, a monastery, and any, I'm sorry, and a men's therapy group and worked in high-pressure sales. The journey provided deep, empathetic insights into the loneliness and pressure men face, but the deception and emotional toll caused her to suffer a severe depressive breakdown. Her profound experiences led her to document both the male lifestyle and her time spent in three mental institutions in her 2008 book, Voluntary Madness. Battling lifelong treatment-resistant depression, she continued to write, but ultimately chose to end her life via assisted suicide in Basel, Switzerland, in July 2022. Um first of all, I mean this is really sad, but it's so intriguing that a woman was so devoted to understand a man's life that she was willing to like fuck up her own life and her mental to do it. So this experiment, disguised as Ned, she attempted to basically just be one in all male spaces, you know, wanted to um basically make a men's movement retreat, and she went into male dating scene, meaning she was a man and was trying to date women. So this toll lasted 18 months. You know, it caused immense psychological strain and isolation. And the fact that she just kept seeing psychiatric hospital one after another, I think I think the story hit me so much because you know, living with a man for how long and being married all these years, and now we have a baby. Um it really has put in perspective for me, like, yes, I'm home most days of the week, right, with Jack, and my husband goes and works, and I work two days a week, the weekends. But I'm sure there's a lot of pressure on my husband, like being the main provider, like having to come home and be happy all the time in front of Jack. Like, we all do this, right? This is for a woman, for a man. But the the difference is that I understand that and I always want to take care of my man. Like, I make sure he has lunch every day most days, unless he's gonna do his own thing. Um, I always make sure there's dinner when he comes home. You know, I make sure that there's beer in the fridge because he likes to have a few beers when he comes home from work. You know, it just kind of like chills him out. Um, he's not one to like take Advil or Motrin or anything. So, you know, he's old school labored worker. You know, he's a painter and a wallpaper guy. So I think I being empathetic, I'm okay. Like him and I are okay. We understand there's good days, there's bad days, but I think a lot of women and society put pressure on men that are just not obtainable, you know. Um, I think trying to look strong all the time and not being able to show weakness is a terrible thing for a man. And I have said since I found out I was pregnant with Jack and he was gonna be a boy, obviously. I said, my struggle as a mother will be to show Jack like he doesn't always have to be strong. Not that that's a struggle, but in society, I think society puts a lot of pressure on young boys and men. And I want Jack to always know that he can be equally soft and tough. And Paul feels the same way. Um, so he will have two parents that are empathetic and understand. And whether he's a boy or girl, you know, there's certain rules that would attain to both sexes, right? But at the end of the day, raising a little boy, I mean, he's still a baby, he just turned 11 months. Um, I want him to know that he doesn't always have to be tough and the tough guy. Like he can be soft too. That's just as, you know, attractive to women as the toughness is. And my dad taught me that when I was younger. My dad would always have tears come down his eyes late at night. And when I was little, I would say, Dad, are you crying? And he would say, Not really, but sometimes tears come down my cheeks because I always mourn my mother. He lost his mom when he was about 13 years old. She was very young. And my dad was always that soft man, but he was also a manly man. Like he was a carpenter, he was a builder, he worked every day for a living, but he always came home and showed my brother both of us, both of us, love and protection, and empathy, and softness. Um, if anything, there were times that my my dad was a lot softer than my mom. You know, my mom was like disciplinary. But this story is just so compelling in so many ways, and I think everyone should read up on this and do their research because again, I see a lot of nasty shit on the internet, like, oh, men are bitches now, men are the women, and women are the men. Well, because society has made it that way, and we have been okay with that for years and years of torturing men. You know, like men aren't always the strong ones. You know, men carry a lot of weight on their backs and their shoulders too. And I think both sexes need just as much empathy. So, for all my male listeners, I want you to know that you're seen, you're heard. Um, I've always been a 50-50 girl. I've always been a man lover, a woman lover. Like, I think it takes too both sexes in this world to make it go and all the in-betweens, you know, all the LBGQT, whatever. Whatever makes you happy. You know what I mean? I'm I'm but I'm just like specifically black and white right now, like just saying everyone needs empathy, everyone needs to feel loved, everyone needs to be heard. Um, I don't think that all the weight should always go on the man or the woman. I think it, you know, and it's not always gonna be 50-50, right? We know this. But again, society really harps on men. Like you have to be this tough guy all the time, and that's not true, and that's not fair. So, like I said again, this story is very compelling. I think everyone should look into it, and um, that's my feelings and my thoughts on that. So, you guys come back and let me know what you think about this. I'm not gonna go too much in depth with like her books, I just kind of wanted to touch base on the overall of this one.

I-40 Serial Killer Theory Talk

SPEAKER_01 12:23

The FBI came out and said that there's about 500 unnamed serial pillars lurking among I-40. And I saw another creator talk about the same thing on here. If I find her page, I'll note her down below. But, anyways, if this is something that I've been thinking about for a while, and I have like my own little theory about it, you know, the window in the Pacific Northwest. When you are on the Pacific Northwest, we're talking about the ones that run from the coast. Or they're just people who live all the way up in those woods who have nothing else to do. And they know those woods and each trail and each abandoned logging road like the back of their hand.

SPEAKER_06 13:35

I would have to agree. I've always um said that truck drivers are would make the perfect serial serial killers because they're constantly traveling. Um, anything up in the woods, any living human basically that's isolated. I mean, come on, it's the perfect spot, right? That could be in the off the coast, that could be Appalachia, that could be, I mean, anywhere. Even like up in the UP in Michigan is like so isolated. I mean, who knows how many bones are spread out, right? I thought that topic was pretty interesting, and she seems very um passionate about this, and her name is Thanks Mia, and of course, you know, I always had to play some videos from TikTok because we love TikTok.

Creepy Hospital Story And Advocates

SPEAKER_06 14:24

Okay, this is a Michigan story, and a lot of people are knocking him saying it's fake. I don't know, but either way, this is fucking petrifying, and I have heard a lot, a lot of different stories. Not just on this specific person, but other people too have claimed these things in hospitals. I'm gonna play it for you, and if it doesn't give you the shivers up your spine, then you are I don't know what you are, but you're not human. Anyways, here we go.

SPEAKER_04 14:54

If you know anyone missing in Bay City, Michigan, you better go and fucking prosecute McLaren hospital there. Because they tried to harvest my body. I went there with nobody. My mom went down to a medical emergency. I went to West Brandon. They sent me down to Bay City and I felt they gave me something that made me pass out. Before they did I put my phone in the back of my pants where I was laying on it and stuff. And I woke up in this room in the basement of my clearance. Or whatever, but you needed a key card to use the elevator, even there was no exercise. And half of the when you go out, there was no nursing station, half of it was closed down, it was all black, only my hallway was like my side of the hall was like lit up. And I went out and I hopped around on my leg 'cause my leg and my arm wasn't working. And I'm checking all these doors to see if there's anyone in there. I was trying to look in, nobody nobody was all alive. I'm like, what the fuck? So I don't even know if anyone was alive down there, but they were definitely gonna fucking try to harvest my body. I'm calling my mom, I'm hitting this fucking nurse button, like I need help. A couple hours pass. A janitor kept coming in and saying, knock it off, quit call, quit fucking hitting that button. I'm like, listen, lady, I'm I feel like I'm dying. I need help. Like my heart feels like it's shutting down. She's like, there's nobody here to help you. I'm like, what the fuck? So, like, I'm like trying to find an escape route now. I'm like, what do you mean?

SPEAKER_06 16:42

Okay, so at that point when he's talking about this janitor lady, sorry to interrupt this, but I have to. My ADHD brain cannot handle this, and I have to speak on it now. Like, do you do you guys think maybe she thought he was a ghost? Like, she's probably now here's another thing. How many so-called ghosts has she interacted with? Were were they actual ghosts? Like dead, you know, dead, right? Someone died and you know, their soul, whatever, lifted out of the body. Or how many more actual living people were down there asking for help? Hey, I'm dying, help me. Like, I'm not supposed to be down here. Fucking scary, right? And there's just an article, and people have made videos on it, that this kid was taken down to the morgue, and he ended up being alive. I forget how old he was, maybe like five or six. So this shit happens still. With our medicine today, this still happens. It's scary. All right, let me proceed to this video.

SPEAKER_04 17:38

So, like, I go walking around, I'm hocking around on one leg. And uh, I went down like three different halls, no freaking exit. I'm going down the fourth one, and there's this nerd a girl in scrubs. I don't even know if she was a nurse. She's like, What the hell are you doing out your wrong? And I'm like, Uh, I'm leaving. My mom and it's coming to get me.

unknown 18:00

She's like, Oh, you can't leave?

SPEAKER_04 18:02

I'm like, Yes, I can. I was like, Where can I fucking wrong? She's like, Why do you why do you want to leave? And I'm like, Because nobody's coming to help me. She's like, I'll come help you. And I'm like, No, my you know, I I got people there, like, I they're coming to fucking You know what I'm saying? She's like, What do you mean? Like, who my people are? I'm like, They're fucking coming. You better take them out of the fucking dungeon. She's like, What the fuck? I was like, What are you a fucking wheelchair? She had to go through the car door fucking wheelchair. And then it looked like it was a fucking electrical room. Like, what the fuck? She's slamming my legs into shit. Fucking radio, like first she was like messaging someone's like fucking we're coming out, she's smashing my legs into shit and then fucking runs me out to the door and smash me into the door and then opens the door and then pushes me out to sleep. I'm like, what the fuck? And then I'm like, my stuff, you know, from the front lady that's showing through the fuck. And then they brought they brought up my wallet and season show some motherfucking one. Look like a fucking evidence bag. I'm like, what the fuck? Why did you even have my shit?

unknown 19:34

You know what I'm saying? And then so like I'm sitting there for like 10, 15 minutes.

SPEAKER_04 19:42

This guy just called into this room. Uh right next to the fucking room. He's like, oh no, he comes out, he's like, No, I'm good, I'll just wait. I don't I don't want a shot. No, I don't want the shot. And they're like, no, you need the shot. You're taking the shot. He's like, dude, I don't fucking want the shot. I already told you, I can refuse it. And they're like, no, and then they're like security security games. He's like, what the fuck are we screaming at him? What the fuck? Broken biceps and his arm hanging. He's like, wait a thousand. He's like, what the fuck? And then that guy's like, somebody help me, and I'm broken. The guy with the broken arm's broken, and we're like, we can't. What the fuck? And they fucking dragged him back in the room and he's screaming and then they slam the door.

SPEAKER_06 20:37

Okay, so this is insane. Let me just read you a few comments. Someone says, almost a McRib there, buddy. That is insane. And he this guy's name is Brother Earth. He says, seriously. People are saying, like, please order your complete records. You need a case manager. It helps that would help. It sounds like a lawsuit. This person says, I worked at McLaren McComb, and I believe you, this is correct, sir. Which is scary as fuck because that's even like really close to my house. Um, this person says, I have a feeling this is going to be a Netflix special soon. My mom went there a few years ago and she left in a hospital gown, tried coming home because she felt it was an off place, and police picked her up and took her home. She called up to the hospital the next day to do, I'm sorry, the next day for her things, and they had no record of her being there. Um, people are saying, please contact a medical malpractice attorney. I'd file a police report. My dad was just in McLaren McComb, and I truly believe they were not trying to help him or save him. This person says it's been happening for decades. I've been trying to tell people for years. Um was this? My husband had the same problem when he tried to. To leave. Brother Earth says December of 2025. This woman says, friends don't let friends go to McLaren. I also went there and it was a nightmare. I very much believe this story after my experience. I lived there for 25 years and we called it Bay Dead because it was Bay Med at the time. I assumed everyone knew that it was the worst of the worst. I cannot believe this is still in operation. Someone said hospitals are creepy. So, anyways, um, I've always known you never ever go to the hospital alone. You always have an advocate. I don't care if you need to call a fucking friend, a neighbor, a cousin, a distant cousin, an ex-lover, a this, a that, whatever. Have somebody with you. I mean, obviously an adult, don't bring a kid because who knows what would happen to that kid. I don't believe that all hospitals are bad, but I think I think there's a you know, there's a lot of malpractice still. Like doctors fuck up, nurses fuck up. I mean, it it it is what it is, and it will happen for years and years and hundreds of years later. And even with robotics and machines, I mean, accidents happen. So the main key is though, is having somebody there, right? Even if they're in the waiting room, they're checking, they're asking questions. Bottom of the basically bottom line of the story: always have someone with you or have someone come up to be with you while staying in the hospital.

American Horror Story Season Rumors

SPEAKER_06 23:32

And for something so exciting, and anyone that is an AHS fan, especially of the few good seasons there was, the first one being the best, aka American Horror Story, this is exciting.

SPEAKER_12 23:47

The next season of American Horror Story looks to be absolutely wild, and here is all of the confirmed characters that are said to be returning. This season looks to be like Avengers Endgame, so let's get through all of these characters because there is quite a few. So, starting with Murder House, we will see the return of Jessica Lange, and she's coming back to play her character, Constance Langdon, and we will also get to see her daughter Adeline Langdon. The rubber man will also be making an appearance as well as the Black Dahlia. From season two, Asylum, the only character we have so far confirmed is Lana Winter. From season three, Coven, which this season looks to be mostly revolved around, we have quite a few. Sarah Paulson will be playing Cordelia Good once again. Angela Busser is back to play Marie Lavore. Happy Bates will be back as Delphi Lemerie. Emma Roberts will once again be playing Madison Montgomery. Every Cinnaber will be once again playing Queenie. And finally, Jamie Brewer will be returning to play Nan and her second confirmed character for this season. From Hotel, we will see the return of Jim Patrick Marge, played by Evan Peters. From season six, Roanoke, we will see the return of the Pokemon. From season seven, and perhaps one of the ones I'm most excited about, we will see the return of Kai and Winter Anderson. From season eight, Apocalypse, we will see Mallory and Cole Call return. From season nine, nineteen eighty-four, we will see the return of Richard Ramirez. And from season ten, which was the double feature season, we will see Sarah Paulson play two characters, which are TB Karen and Mummy Eisenhower. We don't know what the plot line is going to follow, but it does look like it's going to be based around the murder house and the witches specifically. And we've heard rumors that it's going to focus around a hotel. Will you be watching this season? I have missed the last few seasons because of disappointment, but this one looks to be really good. The next season of America.

SPEAKER_06 25:34

Yes, I could not agree with her more. Oh my god, I'm so excited. The Coven, the Murder House, and the hotel season was the very best. So I am so looking forward to that. Now, speaking of the Black Dahlia, hold one second, please.

Black Dahlia Documentary Claims

SPEAKER_07 25:51

So apparently these filmmakers have solved the Black Dahlia murder, and honestly, I kind of believe them. And there's a new documentary coming out called Destruckling Dahlia, where they apparently uncover new information and have the exact location where they think she was tortured and murdered. Black Dahlia is the name given to the victim, Elizabeth Short, who was murdered in a very brutal and gruesome way. Not only was her body drawn with all her blood, but the way she was caught made people believe that this was a doctor or somebody that had no dream. So almost 80 years later, no one knows who. This room was behind a wall, my dear, so they had to work through a lot of trouble. What they found was bloodstains. Bloodstains that were Elizabeth Short's. The filmmakers were also allowed to get thousands of files that just weren't released before. They said every place in the files where an eyewitness said that they saw blood, we found blood in the room. It basically says if you actually read the files, it's pretty clear who killed Elizabeth Short. And that's obviously pretty sad because there's a lot of cases where cops just don't follow through with the tips. They just don't look through the evidence thoroughly. Nine times out of ten, the case could have been solved if they actually did the work. Now there's no word of when this documentary is gonna come out, but I'm excited to see it. Do I?

SPEAKER_06 27:15

I cannot wait for this documentary because I am so invested in the Black Dahlia murder. And there's just and the the way that American Horror Story touched base on that one, too. Like, I'm just I'm a very happy woman.

Practical Magic Sequel Hype

SPEAKER_06 27:30

Now, another movie that everyone has waited for. And I remember watching this movie with my mom. Oh, so nostalgic. Um, my mom definitely had me watch some of the best movies, older classics, of course, but practical magic too. So let's get into that.

SPEAKER_03 27:53

No magic is stronger than sisterhood. Test by fate, tested by time, and never broken.

SPEAKER_08 28:03

What is wrong with you? Are you like six? Are you six? We need to get out there, South. Have a little fun. I have my family, and I'm not receiving textbook photos that I did not ask for. Oh, let me tell you about Chad. Oh, we know.

SPEAKER_06 28:35

Now, supposedly it's coming out September 11th. I think that is accurate. I wanted to give you guys a little bit of a snippet of a trailer. And oh my god, I know my sister-in-law, Mima, aka Jesse, she's the aunt of the extended family of the kids. Basically, all my sister-in-law's family, friends, cousins are all aunties and cousins of mine. You know, we don't need blood to be related, right? So, anyways, I know I'm going with them. Um, I'm sure there's like a group of us girls are that are gonna fill up the movie theater. So I am just I'm ecstatic.

Creepy Disney Park Facts

SPEAKER_06 29:12

Okay, now a lot of people know these, but seven creepy Disney park facts. And I want to talk about this because this does kind of tie into Five Nights at Freddy's. I was just telling my friend about this. Her kids love it. She loves the movies. I also love the movies. In 1974, cast member Deborah Stone was hired at Disney two weeks after the carousel of progress became the America Sings Attraction. One day she was caught between the attractions, rotating stages where she tragically lost her life. So basically, they were animatronics, and she got caught. She was jumping the stage, I believe, to go get to onto the other one. And the rotating stages and um animatronics like literally just crushed her life and tore her body apart. So I've always said Five Nights at Freddy's feels so realistic. It's like nostalgic in a way for us that are millennials because we remember like Chuck E. Cheese's and um what was the other one? Chuck E. Cheese. Why am I having a brain fart here? Chuck E. Cheese. There was another one on Grashet. Hmm. Oh, we'll come back to that. I always loved seeing those when I was little, but they also were creepy, right? Because they were like animated but realistic. Like is somebody underneath those costumes. Anyways, moving forward with the creepy facts. The haunted mansion location um at the park is where a lot of guests have scattered their loved ones' remains. Sorry. I laugh about that because you you guys know by now that I'm pretty morbid, right? But it just adds to the whole history of the hauntings of Disneyland, right? River Country Water Park was Disney's first water park that closed in 2001. In 1980, a guest died from a brain-eating disease, but the park remained open for 21 years after. The park now sits abandoned till this day. Well, that's great. It's a small world, animatronics never stop moving ever. When the musical I'm sorry, when the music and the lights turn off, the dolls continue to dance 24 hours a day, seven days a week, when the park closes or shuts down, the dolls never stop moving. Very fucking creepy. And I believe it. I don't care what anyone says, I believe that that shit happens there. Discovery I'm sorry, Discovery Island has been abandoned since 1999. However, in 2020, police raided it and arrested a man that was hiding in there. There are tons of abandoned functioning, uh, let's see, non-functioning animatronics that Disney hangs on to. See, just like the movie Five Nights at Freddy's. That's why it feels so real. You know, like when something's like nostalgic, but also feels off, but you kind of feel like you know, but you don't. Yeah, that's that feeling. There are rumors that when Walt Disney died, people found some papers on his desk that said, kill Goofy. I wonder why. Why kill Goofy? Goofy is like one of my favorite characters. It was growing up, so I don't know why anybody would want to kill Goofy.

Dolly Parton Video Conspiracy Vibes

SPEAKER_06 32:48

And of course, something that broke the internet. Very sad because I love Dolly. Dolly Parton, our stick with tits, right? She has been out of the limelight for a while. Um, her sister claimed that she was sick, she wasn't doing good. People thought Dolly might depart this world, and um everybody was scared. Now, all of a sudden, everybody knows that um what's what's his name? Travis Kelsey and Taylor Swift got married, right? This was a very cryptic message, like video message that Dolly Parton sent to them. Now, you have to watch it to see like the devil horn sign that she's doing with her hands, and I don't get too much into this stuff, but it is really, really fucking creepy and left a bad taste in my mouth. So let's play it.

SPEAKER_02 33:42

Dolly Parton posted this thank you video, and the more I watch it, the weirder it gets. Taylor and Travis dropped $26 million on charity before their wedding, and two millimeters went to Dolly's imagination library. So she then posted a video to say thanks. Someone that's been around since the sixties. People in the comments aren't just talking about the hand sign. Some are saying this isn't even Dolly, that she's been replaced. Which is strange that she would do something like this. Maybe it's nothing, maybe she ages well.

SPEAKER_06 34:42

It is very weird. She does look very, very, very young and like vibrant in this video, and she was not looking like that before. And the weirdest thing is that she went away for like months and months, and then her doing like the devil horn sign with her hand during this like video message thing. I'm sorry, it's too uncanny to just like ignore and be like, oh, it's nothing. I definitely think there's something there, and I will only speak on stuff like that if I truly feel it, and I I definitely feel that in my bones. So yeah, creepy. If you haven't seen it, make sure you watch it.

Michigan Earthquake And Lake Weirdness

SPEAKER_06 35:18

Now, a lot of people don't even know that this happened, okay? And I actually had to tell people at work this past Saturday, and they were like, What? And they were really interested in it. So I told them, do your research. That's what I did. But now I'm putting it out here in case any of my fellow Michiganders want to know about this and didn't already hear about it. Here we go.

SPEAKER_00 35:38

So it was a magnitude 2.9 earthquake. It happened just after 2 30 this afternoon. So it's about 20 miles or 20 kilometers east north east-northeast of Kilworth. Notice here the depth was about five kilometers. So we're watching things. I've been checking the USGS as well, their website, and there have been some reports of folks feeling this earthquake across our north. And so it was a magnitude 2.9 earthquake. It happened to be.

SPEAKER_06 36:03

Okay, so that was in Lake Michigan. Um, and it was in the Chicago area. So a magnitude of 2.9 is kind of a big deal, right? Now, the comments excuse me. Um, someone said, Did anyone see the video of the lady that said Chicago was going to flood, and so were other states? I think she mentioned earthquakes too. My house shakes more when I walk. That was a jerk-ass comment. I saved these for a reason because I like the funny comments too. Um, again, they're saying, What about the girl who was talking about the lake and tsunamis? And this guy says, We get earthquakes now, which Michigan, we have had a few. I remember some in the kitchen when I was younger, the kitchen shaking and it would be on the news, right? But you haven't heard any of this in a long time in Michigan. Um see, this person's trying to say, oh yeah, we definitely are on a different timeline because I've lived 32 years in this area and we've never had an earthquake. I remember being younger, we had a couple earthquakes. Definitely has happened in Michigan, but it has not happened in a very long time. Um This person says, I fear for us Chicagoans. We never take tornadoes or earthquakes seriously. I never noticed until I met my husband from California. I was like, oh, it never reaches us. It's so crazy. I felt it while I was laying down and it shook for three seconds. I thought it was this ass though. So they do call Lake Michigan an ocean because that's a whole nother topic. There's a lot

Ocean UAPs And Declassified Files

SPEAKER_06 37:50

of strange, deranged, band insane that's happened in that lake, the surrounding area of the lake, up in the sky, up in now. There is something very important that I want to. I'm gonna play a video and I also want to talk about it because if you guys pay attention, now I've had a lot of episodes, so it would be hard to know detailed memory, right? But I have what I've I've always been like, the aliens are in the fucking ocean, dude. Like things happen in the ocean. There's a reason why we haven't gone all the way down, deep down, and there's always these these same-ass excuses, and they're lame. We don't have the technology, we don't have the equipment to get down there, yada yada yada. But we put millions, trillions, billions into space. Make that make sense, okay? Like, sit on that for a moment. I'm telling you, it's in the oceans, it's in the bottom of some lakes. We have glacieric lakes here in Michigan that hold the um prehistoric sturgeon still. Like, it doesn't just have to be ocean. I mean, this is freshwater. Um I'm saying there's shit that happens deep down in the water, and there's a reason why we have not explored it, or we haven't explored it publicly, right? So, going with that, I'm going to play a quick video.

SPEAKER_05 39:10

Breaking news, y'all. Breaking news. Wow. Just wow. Now I am a day late, okay? This is freaking mind-blowing. If what the witnesses say is accurate, it changes everything we thought we knew about life on this planet and our place in this universe. The idea that the UAPs are actually coming from the ocean instead of outer space is such a massive mass materials, bioorganic compounds, and the revelation of 4K evidence from all around the world of UAPs coming out of the ocean. This is freaking wild, you guys. Oh my god. And then there was a global race to reverse engineer this technology. Like every country is inviding behind closed doors doing this, okay? This sounds like something straight out of a sci-fi movie, but it is happening in real life, and they admitted this yesterday. These beams or machines could be from civilizations that developed before humans ever existed. Breaking news, oh breaking news. Wow. Just wow.

SPEAKER_03 40:16

Whale bones keep showing up in Michigan. This isn't a joke, it's not a hoax, it's real. Science says it's real. These are real species that are still alive in the oceans today, not ancient sea monsters. Sperm whales have turned up in both Lenaway County and Wexford County. A bowhead whale was found in Dakota. Fimpack whales have been found in Genesee County. Balean whales? We got 'em. They have been found in counties across the state. Some unearthed during construction, some picked up right off the beach or from a river. About 12,000 years ago, glaciers started melting and produced an unreal amount of water. That runoff created a massive river flowing to the Gulf. Whales are mammals, so they can handle the cold. Eventually, the water rerooted east, the Great Lakes took shape, and some whales just never made it out.

SPEAKER_09 41:03

The Pentagon today released the third batch of declassified files related to unidentified anomalous phenomena, more commonly known as UFOs. The 72 newly released files date from the 1940s to this year and include materials from the FBI, CIA, Department of Defense, and NASA.

SPEAKER_08 41:24

More and more of the videos in this release, or this batch of documents and videos, show red orbs than the previous two releases. Another thing that was really striking is more of the videos in this one are taken on iPhones. There's a lot more recent video than we've seen in the previous two, which included a lot more video from U.S. military aircraft. So it's just grainier and darker. Whereas you can see here, you can make out colors in some cases. There also includes a uh more uh eyewitness interviews and testimony that are provided by the CIA and the FBI in these. And what's striking about that is as opposed to the ones that we've seen in the past releases that include US military documents, uh, they they at times they identify the individuals who are giving these testimonies as being highly credible in their testimony. So again, uh it's it's very similar to past uh the past releases, but we are seeing nuances and and and slight differences here that are just interesting to go through.

SPEAKER_06 42:25

And there you have it, folks, the Great Awakening. And why is the Great Awakening happening and why are people so scared or thrilled about it? Because technology has gotten so good, and us humans individually have our hands on this technology, these cameras, these recordings. That is why it's happening so much now, right? Because we can all individually see for ourselves and put information out there, and that's why it's normalized because they know okay, we cannot hide it because everyone sees it, right?

Upcoming Interviews And Contact Info

SPEAKER_06 43:02

So, with that being said, let all this sink in, and again, always come back and let me know what you think, what you like, what you don't like, recommendations, suggestions, anything. But I also want to say that I have a very cool interview coming up. Um, I will give you a hint, it's from an author, and he is very intriguing, very interesting, very knowledgeable, and I'm not gonna say his name, it is a he. Um, that's coming up the 16th, so in three days, I have another interview, I think the 26th, of someone very, very interesting that also is an author. And then there's a third interview, possibly in the making, within the next month. So a bunch of new content coming. I love interviewing people of all different backgrounds, right? But I love authors and I love knowledgeable like journalists that have done it for a long time that have been in this game, whether it's like paranormal, cryptids, you know, hauntings, um skeptics, all of them into one. Because if you've written books successfully and you have people out there reading with the spark of the internet, like anybody can go on the internet and look anything up, but if people are still reading your books, your articles, you know that you got it, you know that you're legit, right? So without giving out away too too much, um in a few days I will be interviewing this gentleman, and I'm just so excited. But again, you guys, if you want to get a hold of me via voicemail, of course um on here, you can do it through Buzz Sprout. Leave me a voicemail, um, it will go straight to my phone. You can also message me through Buzz Sprout. And if you want to be old school and send me an email anonymously or with your name, your story, um, that's ghost sisters2124 at Gmail. Again, that's ghost sisters2124 at Gmail. And of course, anytime you look up Strange Strange Band Insane, it will show you listings of any platform you can listen to it on, um, and also my social media where you can get a hold of me there. But yeah, I love interaction and um I'm getting a lot more interaction through email, uh, through publicists and authors themselves. So I'm so excited about that. And again, whoever is listening, even if you're not an author, I don't care. Like I said, all different backgrounds. Please get a hold of me if you'd like to come on, or if you'd like me to tell your stories. Um, I love it. So, again, you guys, thanks for listening and tune in for more.
