In this episode of The TruthSeekah Podcast TruthSeekah is joined by Dan Smotz as they discuss the moon landing. Did we go to the moon or was it a hoax? There are so many conspiracy theories concerning the moon landing and during this discussion we talk about a few of them. There are even more conspiracies about what the moon even is. I’ve heard that it was everything from a massive satellite to being something like the death star from star wars. Dan is working on a documentary about the moon landing and even though the film doesn’t beckon questions and conspiracies as crazy as these I had to try to work them into the discussion. We also talked about religion and spirituality as we both have a background in the church and christian music.
Dan Smotz is the host of a podcast called The System Is Down where he discusses religion, conspiracies, politics and a bunch more. Check out his show at www.TSIDpod.com. I had the opportunity to be a guest of his show sometime last year, and we had a great conversation. You can find that episode here.

into this discussion here with you today you had me on your podcasts over a year ago and I'm glad I was able to return the favor and get you on mine so we did a really good show together on yours about talking to Jesus through the third eye and spirituality in the Bible and all that kind of stuff so you guys sorts a heretical stuff yeah yeah right so all of you guys who haven't heard that podcast make sure you go look it up on the system is down so we did a really cool episode so I'm gonna plug that so yeah man what have you been up to I know you have the documentary that you're working on and trying to raise some funding for that we're gonna get into that whole subject matter but you know as you I'm saying in general I mean what you've been up to sure yeah well first off I gotta say I'm battling a head cold here so hopefully this isn't like gross ASMR for anybody listening but yeah the show is going great we just we just passed a hundred episodes and move it on to different things we were doing two different shows per week and now I've had to cut out the second show where we were covering the news because anytime to work on to work on things that I think are more important which is this documentary or I've just been getting into whether or not we went to the moon because I think that this is an important topic to open back up and something that a lot of people just kind of poke fun at and has kind of gone to the wayside is like the oh yeah conspiracy theory whatever [Â __Â ] and stuff do you cuss on the show I should ask Oh try not to it's okay you know because YouTube's getting really weird with that now share it oh yeah alright I'll try and put a little in it but yeah that's pretty much it that in Bunch music bunch of everything it's life trying to figure out what's going on in the world you know like so you're making music - oh yeah I'm always making music I'm in about three four I don't know I've lost count of how many projects I'm working on at the moment of fantasizing this morning about being in a band again but there's no time for it I would love to do it and start that that that project but there's just no time if you got this point man you know yeah I'm grateful and blessed enough that the guys that I made music with in high school they've all kind of came back to the same area over time so we just kind of get together and we'll play a show here and there we'll put out music here and there so it's not like a band like that we do on the regular but it gives us an outlet when we we have the itch we can just throw it out there and don't have to worry about it so it's nice for sure man I guess moving forward let's give just give a little bit of background about your religious upbringing do you consider yourself a Christian or you a follower of Christ I know you have that background where are you now when it comes to religion and Jesus yeah man I came from a very conservative Christian background my dad was pastor and everything you had some issues with that that kind of I mean nothing against my parents or anything but some of that fundamentalism it kind of pushed me away from Christianity for a while and pushed me away from I mean I went down different avenues explored different things like maybe there is no God that type of thing but yeah at the moment I am open-minded to whatever whatever truth is I'm open to it because you know it I yes to put it simply I do consider myself a Christian and at this point in time and I know it's probably not heretical to your listenership but like you know if I'm proven wrong then that just is what it is if I find out that there is no God or something if I am definitively proven that then really think that there's a God and a creator an all Supreme Being that created you and he's afraid of your questioning things and yeah you being open to like truth in general if he's mad at that then you know I don't understand him maybe that's on me I don't know yeah that's so weird right being scared to ask the questions early on hey bro I shouldn't be looking into that you should be hold on there's a hunger inside me and somebody put it there like I didn't make this all right you know so asking those questions or whatever yes some people you know get to kind of taboo hey man I know you think it but don't speak it out loud you know those kind of things man that's cool bro so I wanted to just just to kind of see where you were moving forward just like a frame of reference and stuff what about what about I guess moving forward to set the stage because some of these questions maybe change you know the questions moving forward in the way you're gonna respond to what some of these questions I have for you about the moon and things like that flat earth what are you staying with that because that could change everything as far as the planets and which they are and we're you know if the moon Eve is is real if it's in our atmosphere you know I'm saying what do you feel about Flat Earth I like it I like it as a thought experiment I like all the people that are digging into it I think it's really fascinating and interesting it's one of my favorite theories actually I've gone on several podcasts defending the theory just saying you know these people aren't nut jobs they're not crazy just because they think this way I'm not convinced I'm open to it as far as like the moon landing stuff I'm kind of having to take all the other possibilities and set them aside a little bit just to kind of laser focus in on one thing because if you know if you get into it it's like well did we go to the moon and then you start out with well also maybe the Earth's flat and also maybe the moon doesn't exist like you got a you got to get off the train somewhere if you're gonna talk about if you're gonna make a documentary about one specific topic I like digging into all the things man and I'm open to them but I mean it's really like the moon landing in particular you don't have to be like a crazy conspiracy theorist or anything to accept the idea that maybe your government lied to you about something like it's a it's a pretty simple simple concept really if you dig into a lot of what could have happened and I think it's something that in history has gotten people to you know get the wheels to start turning start thinking outside of the box and so I think that it's okay to to not throw in everything right off the bat I'm just kind of presented as you know maybe maybe you're wrong about something maybe you don't understand something maybe you should humble yourself a little bit to be open-minded about this thing and it all starts with one thing nobody usually goes in but with like the moon 911 problem it's usually this one thing that kind of catches your attention and then it opens up the door well if they lied about this maybe maybe they lied about that maybe they've been troops or whatever so we're talking about the moon-landing 911 all of you know JFK there's different things that kind of you know wake people up and for me it was the conspiracies came a little bit after the you know the whole church thing because I kind of felt like I looked at the government the same as a teenager or a kid I looked at the government the same way I looked at the church like these people are not gonna lie to you they're here to help you they have your best interest in mind and then you start finding out about the stuff going on in the church that these people are only after money and they've been true to a certain type of way to you know have this type of scenario that they want to present and the same things happening within the government and terminologies and Bill's and puppets and people and faces and and then conspiracy theories and stuff aside finding out all the stuff was real you know what I'm saying I think it was like you know I'm saying like 9/11 was the first thing that really did it for me was getting into some type of conspiracy stuff say hold on somebody's not telling the truth here you know then you get into you know tower Tower 7 you know this tower like there's so many people don't even know about that you know this building just kind of collapsed by itself that you know no plane hit or whatever so anyway there's a bunch of them out there and it's usually something an alarm that wakes people up you know what I'm saying and it could be anything good most people started out with Alex Jones watching his stuff how big he is and most people don't really follow his work anymore they kind of laugh at him now to see what he's kind of become you know saying more of a show man or whatever and stuff like that but uh but a lot of people started out with Alex Jones and they started out with or the false prophets in the church and stuff like that so something when you're not even you just kind of lose faith in this type of system that you thought was for you what was it that kind of did it for you at the beginning as far as conspiracies or he's all religion I mean to me they were like the same time almost you know sure yeah it's good question I I don't know as far as religion it might have lined up pretty similarly to you to what you're saying but I can't say for sure but yeah as far as the conspiracy stuff I'm as all my listeners know I'm not a big Alex Jones fan I think the dude's kind of a showboater and it kind of makes everybody who digs into the stuff look like crazy people um you know I might even go to the extent to say that it might not be an accident that he's doing that but I would say that he did have a big part in me starting to get into it like I had heard bits and pieces about things here and there but you know starting to look into 9/11 Bohemian Grove and all that type stuff from Alex Jones and his documentaries before the like long before Donald Trump was in the picture before he was like before Alex Jones was like this political figure to push a candidate or anything like that which is pretty much what he is now sprinkle in some you know gay frogs here and there and some crazy stuff but yeah like just some of the stuff that he dug into early on and in the early days of Alex Jones I'm glad that he took the time back then to make documentaries back when I think that he was more open and honest about his discoveries I could be wrong I don't know but it's back before he spent literally five hours a day yelling into a microphone when he was just doing like research and exploring and that's kind of what got me into it a little bit I think there was some stuff before that I don't remember exactly but yeah I think was 9/11 when I started digging into like Sandy Hook Boston Marathon bombing all that type of stuff and then you know you know how the YouTube trails used to be as you know back when we were allowed to be recommended the other you know conspiracy videos instead that before they were dangerous like they are here in night 20:19 yeah I mean I think my heart just skipped a beat when you said Sandy Hook you know I feel like I feel like the channels gonna be deleted again right you know what I'm saying like you have to concern about that now it's ridiculous yeah really weird um I think Bohemian Grove was a big one because the whole fact that you're leaders you know not only are they lying to you but they're doing some pretty weird shady stuff behind the scenes right and it gets into homosexual gay party weekends and cocaine but George Bush and all of these other leaders and stuff and they're taking pictures with these known gay porn stars who were there at the Grove for the weekend and you start digging a little bit deeper in as a hold on these people aren't these conservative cookie cutter Christians that they write you know say pretty much say that they are then you find other footage of them making fun of Christians but they're writing as to Christian candidate you know and just I hold on something's not adding asking questions man but the fact that I mean even if you said it is veer ceased let me say you know if you like set conspiracy like I mean our brains have a tendency to jump to the craziest possible conclusion a lot of the time but even if you set all that aside it's like if you if there's any you know you take something like Bohemian Grove or like spirit cooking stuff like that like if these people are involved in this this crazy stuff whatsoever like even if they just showed up like why don't we know about this stuff it seems like as public servants as they're supposed to be we should at least know that they're going to the these weird rituals and things just even as spectators like at the very who just want very minor but like we why don't we hear about this in our history books why don't we hear about this anywhere like why do we have to go and explore for ourselves to find out that these are happening if you don't that you literally have no idea that it's going on but I don't know it's like our type of personalities were like yep that makes sense everybody else it's like they're like no obviously that's not happening but it is happening and it's been proven that it's happening why aren't we talking about it like why it's not a conspiracy theory it's happening these people are doing some weird crazy stuff so well why can't we talk about it yep it just leads to more conspiracy theories man he's just got to look into it yep so okay so let's uh let's I get to the documentary about the moons your moon landing was it faked you working on a documentary the moon the myth the legend I remember around that same time a hearing for the first time that uh you know I was working with some inmates at the time and uh while work for the city we worked with prisoners and one of them mentioned that the the moon landing was fake I thought it was the most hilarious crazy idea ever because if you trust the church you trust the government the television the news they told you it was real you just took it and that was the gospel that was truth because they told you any inmate told me that a strange and then I got into 9/11 those documentaries and stuff but for the first one that I heard was the moon landing and so talk a little bit about what you're bringing to the table with this documentary because it's done in a little bit of a I'm saying different way there's tons of moon um st. documentaries and expose days and study what's different about yours because you're approaching it a little bit different right yeah absolutely well I'm trying to I'm trying to approach it as humbly as I possibly can like I'm open to being proven wrong 100% and in I know a lot of people say that and you you might not believe me but I actually am look I'm I didn't go into this as like you know I don't think we went to the moon and I'm going to prove that we didn't go to the moon honestly before starting to dig into it for this documentary I knew a little bit here and there about like the Van Allen radiation belts and stuff like that some of the just little bits and pieces of the the theories around it I had no idea though like my biggest thing with this documentary is to try and figure out why why you know if you go up to somebody and you're like hey did we go to do you think that we went to the moon and they say no why are you allowed to call them stupid media laughter like uh that's kind of okay sorry my brains all over the place but like if I tell somebody that I don't think that we went to the moon and they tell me I'm stupid and then ask them you know well what do you know about the moon landings and they don't know anything they don't know like what dates we went how many people have gone how many people have walked on the moon what the process was what the years were what presidential administration it was under how many countries like if they don't know any of those things then why are they allowed to call me stupid like you don't know you don't know the official story let alone what the theory is that I'm presenting to you so why don't we we all just kind of calm down and take our take ourselves down a couple notches and just talk about this because like there's some stuff here like whether even if I was 100% a believer in the idea that we went to the moon and all the official stories are accurate everything's correct there's enough evidence to the contrary to not call somebody else stupid that has looked into it and come to that conclusion so why are we allowed to call them stupid like like the whole point of my show is just to kind of show like people are people we all have different variables we all come from different backgrounds in life and you know the person that you disagree with online the person that you're screaming at and shouting it they're not your enemy they're just somebody who came to a different conclusion than you so let's chill out and let's talk about it a little bit yeah the problem you're typing to in all caps he's you're not something different exactly like you'll find that we have a lot in common and you know Humanity is I think that if there's any point to all of this even as a Christian it's probably trying to it's probably the point is to work together try and figure out what the point is so let's just calm down a little bit and stop throwing stones but I think yeah I think everybody already knows what the point is and that's the problem they've already got it figured out at 16 years old 18 years old whatever you know and that's the thing like I think that all of humanity has this huge pride issue and I've been seeing it more and more like everybody insists that they know things they know they know they know like you've got it all figured out well I mean just one specific example scientists just came out and saying in mainstream media that the moon is now in the Earth's atmosphere and it always was it's like well okay think about that for a second we knew everything a second ago and now we got new information and we're like okay sure we just accept it move on but you don't stop and think about wait that time when I was shouting and saying that I knew everything I didn't know everything I knew pretty much nothing so I'm proposing that we don't know anything because if you can be proven wrong then you know you you didn't know you didn't know you were convinced of something and that's fine that's that's normal but yeah just humble yourself enough to you accept new evidence to the contrary what you've been done what was it that actually did it for you at first when it comes to the moon landing to even question something like this was a documentary that you saw was there certain theory was it that the flag was blowing like it was blowing in the wind which was a huge one for me you know there's no gravity or the different gravity and if you jump to you know if you jump too high you may float away you know but the the right and the flag is blowing like it's blowing in the wind instead of going straight up yeah whatever that's that's something that kind of does it for me but what was it for you to make you at least question this whole thing but if I can ask like how much have you dug into this topic it's not a lie I've heard but I do a lot of different theories on it but I can't say that I agree or believe any of them you know what I'm saying I don't because I don't know but I'm right discussion so right I don't have a stand I'm like you I have no dog in the fight it doesn't change the you know the price of rice in China it doesn't have anything to do with me and that's the thing I feel like people on both sides of this argument are claiming to know things when they haven't actually dug into it for the most part like the conspiracy minded people they're like yeah we didn't go to the moon or we did go to the moon but you ask them questions they don't know and say I'm on the other side and same for me like I'm not like speaking down to anybody cuz until I started digging into it I was like yeah probably not and then like there's mountains and mountains of evidence actually so some of the the main things like there's tons and tons of main things but some of the things that really have started out on the process trying to be unbiased as possible and the more I dig into it the harder it is for me to be unbiased because you know I'm gonna be completely honest with that in the documentary I'm a human so I have a bias but the more I dig into it the more it's just like okay come on there's no way that this is real but do you know anything about like the the Van Allen radiation belts or anything like that a little bit somebody brought that up to me today Danni Guerrero talked a little bit about it and how they all have different experiences about what had happened when we passed through there is that what you're talking about yeah well yeah most people don't don't know that according to NASA that's that's okay we'll come back to that but there's these these radiation belts around the earth that are between us and the moon or the moon is like within them and leading up to 1969 when the first moon landing happened they were dangerous radiation belts that we could not get through we could not figure out how to get through a blah blah blah apparently the radiation belts shut down for about a span of about four years so that we could make all these missions happen and we didn't talk about the belts for four years and then afterwards there's dangerous radiation belts around the earth that we're gonna have to try and figure out how to get through and NASA now is trying to figure out how to get through these radiation belts don't we do that in a tin can in 1969 why are we trying now to figure out how to get through these dangerous radiation belts but the problem with that argument is NASA is the one like without NASA like if I'm being open and honest without NASA I don't know that there's radiation belts surrounding the earth so I have to trust NASA when they say that there's radiation belts surrounding the earth and I have to trust NASA when they say when I when they say that they got through the belts without any explanation so it's kind of like a back-and-forth conundrum but I'm not saying that this is the end-all argument because it all relies on NASA but all I'm saying is the things that NASA said leading up to 1969 don't agree with the things that NASA said from 1969 to 1972 and that doesn't agree with what NASA is saying now so just strange things and there was a documentary there's guy Bert's a Braille you've seen you've probably seen the footage of the dude getting punched by Buzz Aldrin yeah be here yeah yeah that's bart sibrel he's made a couple documentaries about the moon he made a funny thing happened on the way to the moon which is great one and he made astronauts gone wild and in the latter documentary it's basically just him going up to these astronauts and kind of sneak attack interviewing them and getting them to own up to some things and he asks one of the astronauts I remember which one it is offhand but he asks him like so how did you guys navigate through the the main island radiation belts and the astronaut was like well I don't think we went up high enough to get through the belts Bart's like well alright there are uh there are a thousand miles out he's like oh well then yeah we must have just went straight through him like the astronauts man who one of 12 people who have got who have pulled this off his life was in jeopardy and he doesn't know anything about three NL and radiation belts like it took a documentarian telling like just some layperson telling him where these things are you would think that he would have a little bit more knowledge about that but I don't know yeah there's a comment here from Sean Becker and a lot of people talking about this anyway NASA he says NASA lies about everything I'm sure you've seen I think the Flat Earth is really really kind of kind of hone in on this is the fact that the word NASA in Hebrew means to deceive have you are you are you aware of that that's pretty interesting right I've heard it I haven't verified it first I have pulled it up a Maya yeah I pulled it up on my um my Bible Strong's Concordance app sure so that's why I do all my research and stuff but yeah you type in deceive and it ends up and that's it it's it's real like it really means that in Hebrew Nassau Nassau on Nassau very strange that's interesting because you have a do you have a flat earther community that follow you um there's there's a guy in here now the hoary sheets show every time I see him go live he's talking about flat earths and he's got a decent following so uh I've got some I've got some flat earth friends you know um cool you know I just never know what the audience is that we're both man is definitely both yeah sure cool definitely both um it's weird for me with the Flat Earth thing because I have friends who believe it so and that's why I asked you at the beginning because it changes the conversation right when we're talking about aliens and ETS and other planets they don't believe in any of that it changes to interdimensional and Hollow Earth and all those type of things and there's no life outside of Earth's like there's this water and nothingness and there's some some great theories that they bring to the table I can definitely say this with the whole flatter of thing I'm not on either side I'm like you I'm open I haven't came out and said what I was or whatever but they have a lot of good theories and here's one thing though I believe that um if the earth isn't flat then the people who wrote the holy books were deceived because they didn't understand science or their right and NASA and science are lying to us for some reason bodies lying with the - because when it when we see all the maps and all the they're different the different land masses and the four corners of the earth they bring a lot of good stuff to the table and one thing that was interesting that I heard from some flat-earthers recently is the fact that when you look at stars then stars are twinkling and changing colors and stuff and they mentioned the fact that it looks like looking at a light in a fishbowl like if I'm looking at a light under water the way it twinkles and kind of moves and glistens with the Corona effect it def and stars definitely look like that to the naked eye so that was a interesting theory that outer space was water in you know I'm saying outside of the Earth's Earth's atmosphere which would kind of make sense about the firmament and all that kind of stuff I don't want to turn this into a flat earth show but you know moving forward when you would talk about the moon there is no moon you talk about planets or Mars and I'm gonna kind of go into some of that but uh it changes the way people feel about a lot of that stuff right yeah absolutely like I said I'm just trying to take as much of a a grounded approach and set all that stuff aside as much as I love it nothing against the flat earthers love you guys and I there's a good part of me that it's one of you but I'm trying to just present this like as kind of a nerd I want to make it entertaining I want to make it funny and humble and you know just you know like we can take all the spirituality out of it we can take like if you strip back all the layers of the conspiracy stuff if you strip back all the everything else this is a really simple one this is really really simple that's the thing about the moon-landing is like if you tell somebody that you think that the moon landing was a hoax they're like yeah so how many people had to have to know about this giant cover-up but you know the teachers like oh you know all the teachers know about it you know it's like no no no it's not like all these people got together in a giant warehouse and they said okay we're gonna we're gonna deceive everyone I mean the simplest way like the most realistic take away all the conspiracy stuff it was a business you know this this they wanted to go to the moon and they realized that they couldn't and so they faked it simple as that like it and if you can accept that which is not a far stretch then what else then we can explore like this is just kind of oh no no no me who sent to the towards that though is that what you're leaning towards that it didn't happen and that they wanted to say you know we did it we beat you to it like what the space race so are you yeah basically I'm pretty well convinced and I'm gonna be honest in the documentary I am starting out this journey pretty convinced that that is the case and like the space race we we just all hear space race were like oh we were trying to get the moon first blah blah blah that's not even the case Russia kind of gave up long before and well Russia put the first satellite into orbit and Sputnik supposedly unless you're flat earther that that's why I say you got it you got to leave it he had to leave that stuff aside otherwise you can go on tangent for every single thing I say do that anyway without being a flat earther you know right so uh Russia put the first satellite into orbit and then they put the first man into orbit Yuri Gagarin and then we started this quote-unquote space race and we started like the Gemini missions and the Apollo missions and stuff most people don't even know that Apollo 1 do you know what happen to Apollo 1 mission was that the one that exploded yeah just burned up on the on the launch pad we don't like that's not in our history books for some reason we just start with Apollo 11 we don't care about you know Apollo's 1 through 10 where we were going financially bankrupt and the whole program was almost shut down before it started yeah like we were doing terribly and we only talked about the victories in our history which is yeah we did it good job guys and I don't talk about it from there yeah but yeah we we were like if you dig into the history as far as I can tell we were in this quote-unquote space race and we were failing horribly but there was all this propaganda out there with Disney and everybody's saying when when we get to the moon this is what's gonna look like this this this propaganda all over the place to kids and everything and Kennedy comes out and says you know within the next 10 years we're gonna put a man on the moon we choose to go to the moon all that speech and everything so we had this big idea that we are going to be this awesome force to be reckoned with we are Americans hurray this is also around the time of you know Vietnam cold war all that stuff so we we really needed a win ten years coming up and we're failing horribly Russia actually there their head guy died and they had a couple failed missions and they they dropped out of the race long before we supposedly crossed the fish line we don't talk about that in history because isn't it isn't it just so American to you know make up your own race and then move the goal post and then fake the goal post and then say you did it and stick a big old American flag in the studio and say good job you guys but so all this is going down and we get to the the ten year mark and people at NASA people who have dedicated like devoted all their life to this project are like dropping like flies like the one of the the head guys James Webb NASA Administrator it was like very shortly before we pull off this mission that like the biggest thing in human history he just retires he was like no I'm not gonna have any part in this and then we had an astronaut and like the second in command or something like three or four different guys like some of the main people at NASA just bail right before as most people don't know under the Nixon administration we all know how honest that man was known for being all under the Nixon administration we put a man on the moon first trap pull it off got it nobody died everything's good to go and that's how history will read because yeah America I don't know are you familiar are you familiar with the Joe Rogan stance on the moon landing have you heard him talk about it at all so he believes that we went but the footage got destroyed from the radiation got erased you know almost like maybe holding a magnet up to a you know cassette tape back in the day or VHS it would it would mess it up so he believes that and then so to have proof they had to kind of reshoot the footage to kind of write what sets it seems great see anyway they would just tell hey we had footage but you got to leave it and be honest about it versus like you know doing some kind of hoax or whatever the case is right well that's the thing like some a lot of the issue with the official story is the tapes like the footage in the the pictures and stuff they supposedly went through this mass amounts of radiation which would have if you put it through an x-ray machine at an airport it would have been destroyed so they went through all this radiation to get to in front to the moon and back so how did the the footage come out so clean and clear that's one of the arguments but also how did the people get through the radiation and back like people assume that there's like some sort of lead casing or something but it this is literally like they had to use the most lightweight material just thin aluminum to be able to get off the ground with this thing so yeah Joe Rogan's idea of which he used to be a complete denier of the the moon landing and now he as far as I can tell he's just kind of open minded and he's I think he still thinks that it was fake honestly cuz every time he brings it up he's like yeah I used to be a total denier and they're like it's the his guests will say something like how could you possibly think that he's like well it makes a lot of sense and then he goes down this rabbit trail of how it makes sense that we didn't go to the moon so I think that he honestly doesn't think that we've gone but he's humble enough to say you know I don't know because I'm not a rocket scientist I'm not gonna stake my claim there but yeah the whole footage thing to accept that we went to the moon and we had the technology to get men there and back through radiation through all this stuff and when they got back they're like oh crap our Polaroids are all messed up so we gotta go through we got to stage this hoax just because our footage got messed up I find that hard to believe if they were going I mean if they didn't want people to ask questions they should have came out and said if that were the case that just seems so far-fetched to me that they wouldn't just be like crap sorry guys we went there but our footage is messed up so we're gonna stage it over here like come on come on there's a lot of um you know theories in the UFO community as well that talked about that the moon was placed there as a border like we can't go past the moon right and it was like almost there as a marker somewhere that we can't go past there's a this I'm just gonna throw this this at you I'm gonna read this it's a scripture let's see I don't know if you've ever heard of this but I was in the Hebrew Israelite movement for some time and they are really against the white man you know the white man is the devil II saw all of these type of things and so whenever it appears in the Bible Esau and in Israel destroying Esau God hated Esau they believe that this is the government of people we would call the government of the white men are the people who are like the world rulers or whatever and that could be different people it doesn't even have to be white people essentially this is what they believe but there's this weird um scripture in the book of Obadiah who we really don't hear quoted at all in charges or anything in Obadiah is only one chapter right and and so this is a prophecy against Edom or the [Â __Â ] which they believe are the you know the ruling elite that destroyed the earth and do all types of wickedness in the earth right and then there was this really weird scripture that they would use and say that this okay I'm just gonna read it Obadiah chapter one there's only one chapter division of Obadiah thus saith the Lord God concerning you know concerning Edom we have heard a rumor from the Lord and the ambassador is sent among the heathen arise II and let us rise up against her in battle behold I have made these small among the heathen thou art greatly despised the pride of dying heart hath deceived thee in a central here this is the interesting part it says doubt that dwelleth in the clefts of the rocks whose habitation is high that say it in his heart who shall bring us down to the ground verse 4 thou shall exalt thyself as the eagle and they would always say the Eagle represents America in in Bible prophecy - I'll exalt thyself as the eagle it's on the coin it's the dollars on everything you know the ego freedom and thou shalt set thy nest among the stars Vince I will bring thee down saith the Lord so they would paint this picture of the the [Â __Â ] or mankind trying to go and dwell up there where God is and they used this scripture and a bunch of other scripture that they would tie together and say that we're going to try to get to outer space some even say to overthrow God to come and I'm saying ain't claim up our place amongst the stars but the book of Obadiah it's a really obscure a verse there that says that uh that they thought to set their nest amongst the Stars and I said if you do God's gonna cut you down because I mean if we look at the whole Genesis 6 thing the Angels sin because they came to Earth and it was supposed to stay in heaven they came to earth and took wives and all that kind of stuff they tried to go back and then they said nope you can't come back up here you wasn't supposed to leave in the first place you're not supposed to be on earth doing that essentially this it's like the reverse of it like mankind is trying to say you know what we're going to heaven we're gonna make our abode on these other planets we don't want to be here anymore we're going to the Stars which I mean Elon Musk and there's a whole bunch of stuff out there with this kind of stuff but it's very interesting is that we're not supposed to be up there or we're going there to try to make sense of all of this stuff or overthrow God have you ever heard any of any of that kind of stuff it's a very interesting scripture to say that's a lot that's a lot and me and it's just so interesting when you bring up this topic depending on who you talk to where the conversation can go because like 48 hours ago I was talking to a guy who insists that we had to have gone to the moon and we had a very very dry conversation about just the facts and now we're talking about spiritual stuff I love it I'm not yeah I would much rather dig into the crazy spiritual stuff because I love digging into that stuff yeah yeah it's certainly possible if you can accept any of the spiritual stuff which like I said I got to kind of even take Christianity out of the the documentary because it has to be under two hours or three hours or five hours I mean there's so much to this thing that it could be like I'm serious right so you got a like I gotta figure out where it's gonna go and yeah that's the hard part drive in that direction that's the hard problem yeah but I mean there's certainly a part of me that thinks that there's something to that and you know the the Tower of Babel and everything we're always trying to we're trying to have this power we're always trying to find a Claro way out of whatever is and figure out what's going on and for some reason it seems throughout history that we keep being pushed back down like humble yourself style don't worry I've got this basically so yeah I think it's really interesting and it's very possible yeah yeah once you get so high you kind of get you to kind of push that reset button no once we are you know technology advances so far with these previous you know cycles of civilization and ancient loom area and uh you know Babylon and Egypt and all the different technologies that was believed that they had at the time or whatever and it's like somebody pushes the you know I'm saying reset button whoever does that or if it's just a cycle that happens if the even even if that's a conspiracy who knows but yeah I was still hurting in ufology community that you were warned not to come back to the moon we can't go to it there's some audio recordings and then again who knows which of these recordings are are real and people are staged and fake NASA recordings and stuff like that but there's a lot of recordings like from the moon and the missions to the moon where they're saying hey we're being followed by these UFOs and people saying they were being watched the whole time while they were on the moon those theories have you heard anything about that as far as you know being warned not to come back have you looked into that at all I have looked into it a little bit it's it's tough because in order to accept those theories you have to accept that we were able to get to the moon like you have to believe that the government was right in the official story and we got to the I'm having a hard time accepting that we went to the moon yeah I'm open to being proven wrong but as far as I can see in in my digging thus far and again I'll keep saying it I'm open I'm open I'm open to being proven wrong but it seems to me as though we try to pull the thing off we couldn't pull it off so we faked it and then we told everybody hey we did it because here we are I I certainly enjoy entertaining the idea of we went to the moon and yeah aliens told us don't ever come back here right you know so I'm open to it but I don't think that we went to the moon so it's hard for me to really go down that trail but yeah as far as the documentary goes you know it again it's I'm kind of just trying to make a doorway to open people's minds to the idea that you might not know things you might not know everything and I can't go down every rabbit trail That's not me trying to chill or cover up anything that I know the top of has work right I know how you guys work it's not me yeah if somebody shows me clear to find evidence that aliens are out there and they told us not to go to the moon fine I guess the documentary will go in that direction but um the main thing I want is to use this as a way to for generations in the future to at least at the very very least look at history and be humble enough to go hey I might not know anything I might not know everything at the very least and you know maybe there's something to this at the at the very least maybe the person who is looking at evidence and knows more than this about me maybe they're not insane maybe they're not stupid maybe they're not [Â __Â ] or whatever so maybe I should just humble myself and listen to them so that's it like if there's mountains of evidence to that point me in the direction that I'm going you probably have mountains of evidence pointing you toward aliens whatever that's fine but the vast majority of the people out there aren't even looking at this they don't even care there they're just calling us all crazy so if we can get them to at least open their mind a little bit to start listening to to you know the simplest the simplest equation that says maybe the government lies then we can talk about aliens we can talk about all the other stuff maybe we can have open dialogue about everything but you got to start somewhere definitely it's an interesting place to start um you mentioned Buzz Aldrin I'm sure you've seen the footage of supposedly and I kind of got a bone to pick with we are changed movement that kind of took that clip and tried to make it go viral and stuff Luke radowski but the whole he did an interview with a little kid and he kind of missed oak I think he slurred his word and he I think he kind of explained himself at the the further he went but they took a clip of him talking to a little girl and he and she said you know do you think we went to the moon or you know why didn't we go back to the moon and he tried to explain why we didn't go back and and they people were thinking that he was saying that we didn't go like he was admitting great that we didn't go I think he meant I don't think he was saying that you know how are you familiar with that clip I am very familiar with that clip and I am also familiar with how YouTube works and how all these conspiracy documentaries that's the thing in I'm trying to do something different than all the stuff that's online because everything online is just discrediting itself by taking clips like that I'm not saying that I'm not saying the Buzz Aldrin went to the moon obviously yeah but that is not evidence him slurring his words and talking to a little girl you're looking in the wrong direction and you're taking it like and you're repeating it over and over again putting x-files music behind it slowing it down putting it in Reverse like you're completely discrediting your argument if you think that that is clean cut dry if you think that that is Buzz Aldrin literally coming out and saying that we didn't go to the moon it's not you know that's not deep down all of you know that it's not him saying that he didn't slip up and expose something he hasn't gone through all his depression and alcoholism keeping his mouth shut just to now in front of a little girl with a camera on slip up and say we didn't go to the moon like if he was going to make a statement that's not the place that he would do it so just be honest with yourself that's not the that's not the linchpin do expose this thing and that just drives me crazy how are people like open minded people they jump on a thing and then they they they just make themselves look foolish because they say that this means this when they know it doesn't it is strange that he slipped up and said something like that but that is not the definitive evidence that you should be you know I'm staking your claim on yeah they definitely just silly yeah they definitely lose a lot of you know I'm saying credibility just trying to get a viral video out there you know because I'm sure Luke I'm sure Luke knew that too before they put it out and continue to push it or whatever this is kind of I said I think it says a lot about their character they've been in this thing a long time and understand you know about what what ad revenue is and things like that to try to push something like that yeah makes me think twice I mean there's it I would say to your listeners go uh go look into Massimo Mitsuko he's got a documentaries an Italian filmmaker it's got a documentary called American moon it's like three and a half hours long but it's like all facts all information you don't have to just there's enough to this thing that you don't have to just jump on Buzz Aldrin's slipped up and set a thing and then ride that wave for a clickbait like if you're honestly seeking truth go out and watch American moon or something like that where they're actually giving you information instead of old man slipped up like you're just you're doing a disservice to all of us who are trying to actually figure out what's going on okay concerning the moon what are your thoughts on what the moon is we've heard everything that it is what is that thing from from Star Wars that you know the Death Star is that what it's called is there something like that it's a ship it's a satellite it's kind of like The Truman Show where the you know the the controllers of the universe living and there's you know there's civilizations on the moon on the Dark Side of the Moon I've heard so many theories that is hollow you can go in it but do you think the moon is it's just an old dead planet that's floating what do you think it is I just gotta say we're not talking about the documentary anymore because I don't keep saying like like I want to talk about what you're asking but that's not what the documentary is gonna be about because I got a bunch of questions about the Moon Man yeah I know that you're listenership is different than a lot of the people that I've talked to recently so this is fun for sure what do I think it is outside of the documentary that seemed gonna have something to do with the documentary I mean what the hell is the moon is it I mean not necessarily I mean I'm approaching the documentary as the earth is the earth it's a ball that's spinning a billion miles an hour rocketing through galaxies and the moon is the thing that they say it is now let's focus on why they're lying about that we went there like just this really small in the grand scheme of things I want to lay xur focus in on a really small thing that's easy to get off a topic obviously right so that so that the the normal person not us you and I the normal person who's just going about their day-to-day life of I go to work I come home I kick my kids around and drink beer that person I want to make something where that person can look at it and go uh-huh okay maybe this person isn't insane if I how you jump into it I'm like the moon is also Hollow then the you know they shut it off immediately so for the sake of the documentary I don't think I even have to talk about what the moon is we can just accept it's Iraq sure why not but like I love digging into like hollow moon stuff supposedly you know we've shot nukes at the moon to try and find water and all that there's a bunch of crazy crazy crap that people don't know about we could go down all the different rabbit trails and everything but can't can't do it just can't for this but I'm down to talk about it for sure I don't know what I think it is the projection stuff I think it's interesting the hollow stuff I think is interesting yeah I don't know I'm not convinced of anything yeah the flat moon stuff I think is but again I'm not convinced I'm as far as looking at the spiritual side on how we're connected to it we look at like you know I'm saying the the magnetic pull of the moon with the ties that get controlling the tides respect we're looking back into Christianity and stuff and so the the the you know ancient Israelites would would would follow the moon as far as the cycles about winter travel when to sleep like you know I'm saying when to rest or whatever every Sabbath was with every new moon these type of things we look at you know I'm saying women's menstrual cycles synched with the moon as well the moon is pushing and pulling water in our bodies or like 70% water there's something to it right yeah there's something there and all the things I say I have to lead with I haven't done the test too haven't done the experiment so I can't say that this is something that I've proven but you know even like like the flat earthers like you I've seen people do tests where you go out you take a you know a laser thermometer and you test the temperature of the light coming from the moon the light coming from the moon is actually colder than in the shade like it should be warmer but it is leading people to think that there's something shady going on with the moon because if you point a laser thermometer at the ground that is illuminated by the moon's light it is cooler than when it is in the shade so what is that what is that like hey when we're all here saying we know all the things we know what is and explain that scientifically please like I'm not I'm not saying mic drop I'm saying please legitimately explain that because that doesn't make any sense to me and I would like for somebody to explain how that works outside of we don't know I don't know I don't know yeah it's I mean it's interesting to say the least man and we don't I don't think we do somebody knows though right do you believe that the vast you know the government somebody knows oh man oh man oh man oh yeah - the conspiracy that somebody knows was like and they're telling us these weird theories that get us off yeah yeah and I don't want to keep going back to it but for the people that listen to this like I I do believe that there's like probably some sort of shadow government there's probably some higher-ups that we don't understand that know the things that we don't know I do think that that's not going to be in the documentary so don't watch the documentary and call me a shill because I left it out because it's not gonna be them they're just gonna put that out there right now we can leave that at it as it is that's the documentary go check it out moon myth legend calm now we can talk about this other stuff yeah I think that there's probably you know there's probably some sort of higher-ups that we don't understand do I have evidence to prove it no it could be maybe maybe the guy that you called maybe he was really offering you a Illuminati guest pass VIP and I seen this somebody somebody's like hey you should call the numbers like nobody beat me to it dude it was gold I mean yeah somebody somebody knows something man I think whether it's the Vatican or NASA I think many many of these things that we've were seeking out this deeper knowledge the mystery schools you know what I'm saying I think that they kind of know what this stuff is and the truth behind you can't deny that like these people there are certain people in power that are above the law because they do things and they get away with it things that if we did have like a fraction of what they do where you want to get away with it like Declassified not even conspiracy stuff like even just like the Catholic Church you know the people there are certain bad people in the Catholic Church I'm not saying all Catholics are bad but there are certain people in the Catholic Church that are molesting children we know this we accept this these people aren't going to jail the Vatican is saying oh there defrocked and bad bad whatever it's like why is that okay if I did that I would be in jail if not murdered and I should be in jail or murdered because that's a horrible horrible thing why is this just a thing in in our society that we accept like that happened well they're not priests anymore so it's fine go you know go do those terrible atrocities to children somewhere else but don't do it under the Catholic Church like what are what is even going on here like obviously there's something there that these people there's some power that these people have over you know what we perceive as our leaders and rulers of our government and what's how could we possibly think that that's where it ends like that's where it stops really no I have our time believing that we know all the things and I don't know I don't know I agree with you I think there's definitely some shadowy figures out there that are pulling some strings that we don't know about yeah and they muddy up the waters for everything like you said you know the the whole view of the Catholic Church or Christianity in general or whatever but it goes with everything it goes with the government it goes to whatever spiritual movement you're a part of and whatever you know the Enlightenment group that you were any cult that you've been a part of I mean I've been a part of many on this this journey of learning and Hebrew Israelites and seventh-day adventists and just every sect and there's just dirty people who just kind of find their ways into these groups and they try to find a place where they can hang out or whatever the case is or just like somebody's some of these groups are just like kind of like a breeding ground for some of these people too though you know but um yeah I make sure it makes you ask the bigger questions especially when you uh you figure out that we're not being told the truth but I think somebody knows man I really do all these questions that we have I really do believe that uh those people know what's up the books that were taken out of the Bible and other holy books for a certain reason and and hid and stuff like that you know yeah for sure so where do we go now man is so let me just ask you this about the documentary though so just from everything you're saying I know we're talking about some really even deeper conspiracies when it comes to that but uh so is this is this more for like the Newcomer is this more for like you don't saying the average person versus the flat earther versus the person who's done 20 years of research is it more for the newcomer basically yeah I mean like I say if you if you strip away all your preconceived conspiracy minded everything just bring it down to a base level I want to make something that is easily digestible for the person that you pass on the street to help them start opening in their mind to some of these things because once once you get the ball rolling who knows where it can go and not only that but like even from just a very like very layperson perspective we have a pride issue as a society where we think that we know things that we don't like we are convinced that we know things we are convinced because you know because I saw Tom Hanks land on the moon I can call that person stupid when they think that we didn't go to the moon like what is that what why are we that way as a society where we can just jump so quickly - tearing somebody else down even if we don't know anything about them anything about the variables in their life anything about the research they've done even if we don't know anything about the thing that we're arguing why are we so quick to say you're stupid and I hate you like I don't know like that that's a lot of it I think that there's more behind this but yes to answer your question and a real answer yes it's for a kind of the layperson the the newcomer - just wet their wet their palate and get the wheels turnin basically okay so what are the benefits of that versus you just I hear confusing people Dan what do you mean you know yeah and that's that's what you would hear from your church church friends like like how is it benefiting people to get them is it rational thinking is it to let them know that hey you've been lied to about this maybe you've been lied to about that like what's the what's the point vert is it just to promote rational thinking sure yeah I mean it's to promote humility if anything it's to promote just bringing yourself down a couple notches and accepting that you might not know things humility is really the whole point because you don't know anything about the moon-landing let's start there like you don't you don't know the official story so you can't say that somebody else is stupid for their thing like just humble yourself that's it but that's like the whole point of it I don't know like the the full title you said the main title is a the moon to myth legend but the subtitle is a lunar lure for humble dummies like I'm not approaching this as like an authority figure on anything I'm approaching it as yeah I'm gonna explore this topic in particular and figure out why people think this way why other people think that way and you guys can come along and join me on the right I'm not here to say hey the moon's faked the moon landings faked the moons made of cheese I don't know like I'm here to just explore a topic almost like you know so you're almost almost like vice right sure yeah I mean that's what documentaries used to be it was just like way in both sides and presenting evidence and saying here's what I found do with it what you want it's kind of my story of my journey to figure out like take all the other stuff away do we go to the moon let's figure it out let's go and we might not figure it out of course we're not gonna figure it out we don't know but you know at the very least I can say here's why certain people think this way here's why certain is good that way and let's go yes that that right there like you're saying that I think I get what you're trying to do now it's like and you can you you have to approach every ideology with that understanding and I remember when I first got there versus like I'm trying to convince peep while they should believe what I believe that's the whole Christian thing we had to convert them and they make them believe this doctrine and that varies from church to church from sector sect or whatever and they all argue amongst themselves the same way with the moon same way with the Flat Earth the same way with ufology they're gonna there's all these different sects within them that that war but the beautiful thing in all of it is why the hell do you believe that and so to be open to have that conversation first of all that's that humility that we can at least have the conversation and coming from a Christian background like this is that's a big deal to be able to have that conversation and not argue and you're proud even though you've kind of reached this level and I'm pretty sure you're gonna interview people and find people who are gonna argue you in the face yell maybe even walk out of an interview they start shaking get nervous because there's this there they're committed they've given their life when in the terms of Christianity or other religions they've not just given their life they've given their in eternity that this is the truth and I will stake my life upon it on something that you can't even prove it's something you were told I know you've had an emotional experience and you're really tied to this work but to step back and say okay is it still just as powerful what I still believe it if the evidence was changed if I looked at some so a lot of people can there's that cognitive dissonance that kicks in but the whole fact instead of arguing with people and this is where I come from instead of arguing with people I want to understand why do you believe that like why do you believe that you can have you know 15 wives this is a normal doctrine for some churches and they'd still practice polygamy and things like that other other sects and cults and things like that why do they operate that way why does the cult leader have this much power why do they operate this way why do they seek power how do they manipulate people why are other people gullible and you see other people just like you who've just been presented some different information from straight well-spoken pastor a well-spoken cult leader a well-put-together documentary by a 15 year old who's good with that After Effects and music no I'm saying it's like why do you believe this so are you going to approach other topics it doesn't have to just keep being all this moon stuff but will you do you already have plans to say okay next we're going to talk to the polygamist next we're gonna talk to the Catholic why you know whoever it is yeah sure I mean that's basically what my show is is talking people and hearing their stories up I do plan to do other documentaries in the future haven't decided yeah like I'm not I'm not big picture I'm one thing at a time but yeah I mean the podcast that's basically the whole premise is just like I've had on coldest witches I've had on a guy who claims that he was a vampire and all sorts of things like people that disagree with each other that on Freemasons have had on all the things in its I'm not like I'm finding that it's like this really strange concept of hey be open-minded and listen to a person and respect them as a person because they come from a different background why is that such a big concept to people like every time I have somebody on they leave and they like I've had a lot of people come back and say you know that was one of my favorite interviews because you just kind of you respected me you let me talk I'm like why is that so unique like that should be what we're all doing like especially if we're Christians like we should be listening to people Jesus didn't walk with like the the prostitute and then immediately start bashing her and say this is what you're doing wrong he he loved her first and listened to her listen to where she was coming from I think that that's kind of the point to all this is to try and figure out what this is together yeah and I could be wrong like maybe the occultist witch that was on my show is right I don't know I could be wrong I I don't think I am I'm convinced that I'm not but yeah I don't know I don't know for sure definitively I I believe certain things and I know why I believe them but most people don't know why they believe the way they do and I'm trying to figure out why people think the way they do and kind of shake up their foundations a little bit to make people question things and you know come to conclusions and just hopefully I suppose yeah yeah I think I'll kind of do the same thing you know what I'm saying I just loved I just want to be the one who's having a conversation and I you know I get uh I mean I'm a Christian but uh like this isn't this isn't a Christian show you know what I'm saying so I'll have those people who talk to him it's okay whoa are you just letting them talk are you letting them share your platform you know it is get all really like ministry minded but at the same time okay I believe this is a ministry as well I'm able to reach a lot of people we're gonna throw stuff about Christ we're gonna dive into a bunch of different topics people who aren't going to listen to you know a Sunday sermon or even go to church on Sunday morning they have an alternative because Christians are into this stuff too guys like Christian when you're in like I think the majority of the Flat Earth or people are Christians right like everyone's approaching it from like a biblical perspective so that's something somebody needs to talk about if someone needs to give them a platform as well so you just to find out the way the mind works media how effective is media how effective are YouTube videos how effective are memes to change the way that people perceive reality their religion friendships and things like that here's just a comment here from from one of my friends Dumbledore says he says I believe in Jesus Christ because the Shroud of Turin evidence and because when I pray upon him I feel lighter two things there the Shroud of Turin I don't believe that that's real right but this is but that's what he uses to to prove that Jesus was real was the Shroud of Turin there's the end there's documentaries and evidence proving it and there's documentaries and evidence debunking it but for some reason it it convinced him and then the second half he says because when I pray upon Jesus I feel lighter I do too right if I'm going through God I'm asking you to take this off of me give me your piece right now and even as I'm saying it I can feel it that's just how powerful it is and how much I believe it but the other person who had a Krishna Hari Hari Krishna Hari Rama Hari Krishna and they feel lighter as well like what's what's going on why do they believe that why this why are they having that same type of encounter doing the same type of ritual the prayer the higher power connecting we don't have it all figured out and I think many of us are saying the same things but just wording it differently and that's it and that's a beautiful song and dance for me now to be able to accept and not have to argue with you why no you're using a different name you're calling upon a different power that's not really Jesus and and breaking it down but yeah just the whole you know way that the mind works and people believe certain type of things man so vice in just those whole documentaries are awesome especially because they approach it from that type of standpoint owner on a and usually a show you you know and uh you know tapping into places that you've never even heard about ideas that you've never even fathom and it's really cool right yeah and going back to some of what you're saying with like the guy who's talking with the shredder turn that type of thing it's like I am gotten to a point in my life where I'm just like everybody is just like this big math equation like there's a bunch of variables that have gone into their life like I can't look at a person and say that person's a douchebag like okay that person might be having a bad day that person might have just you might be going through a divorce that person might have gotten you know onions on his burger that he didn't in order like there's so many different things that go into what a person was at a certain point in time but we're so quick to just go that person's a douchebag why is that like that person is a person that person especially from a Christian perspective that person was created you know in the image of God and maybe they're not doing it right maybe their third life is just as screwed up as yours and they're doing some things wrong can we just can we just listen to each other could we just calm down slow our brains down and you know try and figure out life together because the person if you look around your community I don't personally think that any of the people you'll find are really enemies they just are people who have come to different conclusions in their life based on all the different variables in their math equation it's fine and it's weird with those labels - there was a guy my you should go to church back in the day he was a new a new guy at church and some other people knew him before I did and they introduced me to him but they said they meant they said something about his head the guy had a rather large head and they say hey this guy's he guys has a massive head ba ba ba ba in every time and I didn't come up with that they said that at first so when I met him let me meet the guy with the massive head I don't know why just subconsciously then every time I seen this guy it was just like hey as a kid with the big head there's the guy with the big head and I had to like check myself like hold on why the hell is this record and keep playing when I see this person I'm not able to see pass this caricature or whatever the big head person right and understanding why I didn't now felt like that was something I can move and get to know him because I didn't take him as seriously because he's almost like a character is some weird psychological stuff that was going on in my head but it's it's the same with with all types of preconceived notions and say hey man like and it definitely happens in church all don't listen to him he's this or I don't know I don't really like this guy or whatever and then you you approach him because of someone else's bias that they told you mm-hmm I heard Damon Thompson is a Christian evangelist he mentioned it with he goes into this with characters in the Bible that we've kind of we've we've given him names that that's not their name like the rich young ruler were like so we talk about this rich young ruler this person in the Bible is hold on that's not his name like there was nothing rich about him like he was he was you know write all of this stuff or the woman with the issue of blood and so identifying these people by their character flaws really their flaws and you see them as that person as that flaw you're not really able to kind of move past to understand who they are and those flaws could be their belief systems oh they're a Muslim okay be careful be careful people you said about me all the time yeah be careful with true seeker just be careful right know you love them just be careful like why the hell got to be why do you gotta like or they'll talk about you mentioned somebody's name but you always add in I don't agree with everything why'd you mention the dude's name but and you had you felt like you had to say it well I don't agree agree with everything that's something like yeah like dance most I went on it's pocket I don't agree with everything what I like Joe Rogan I don't agree with everything I like Benny and I don't agree with it like why nobody thought you did that disclaimer yeah you know you noticed that as well and we talked like judging people and have to like I love them but you know that touches fear it's fear like it's fear it's fear and pride and self-preservation it'sit's very strange like I even some family members of mine I was talking to him about the podcast a little bit and I was like yeah there's a call to switch on trying you know figure out why he thinks the way he does I'm careful very cut and dry yeah they were like well do you have any concerns about that it was like I don't even know what you mean I mean I kind of do because I grew up in it but I don't even know what you mean like what are you talking about do do you think that art that the God that you believe in is so powerless that me speaking to another person is going to infect my life yeah like I was going there they do right and like no I don't have any concerns because I don't think that demons know how to use Skype I don't know what you want me to say here like I'm just talking to a guy and Jesus would have done the same thing I feel like if there if there was a man who walked the earth it was the embodiment of God and that the same God that created the which then I feel like he would probably just be like hey you might be right I might be wrong well I guess he wouldn't say he might be right because he would be right and he wanted you want to really question that but for me I couldn't humble myself enough to be like you might be right I might be wrong maybe none of the things I think are true that's fine like just let's just talk to each other and have a conversation I want to know why you believe the way you do yeah instead we're just like Oh which is evil Tara stay away they're going to as soon as you look them in the eye you will be damned for an eternity in hell it's like that's the God you believe in the God that is afraid of you talking to another human it's just silly it's trying to you know perpetuate a belief system or dog mode you have to protect it you know you have to with it what is what is the formula for truth it goes under goes scrutiny it's laughed at then it's accepted or whatever and when somebody brings some other type of information maybe it's the opposite of what you believe maybe it just deviates a little bit in your doctrine that's one of the so much schisms within the body of Christ in the church you have to protect it to sand nail you have to fight for it and then in doing that you have to like belittle people and you know and that's what it happens a lot of times now not even the information not even the truth that's being presented is we have to talk about their character well you know either got into this you know that they do this or whatever inside has nothing to do with the information triple-m in the comment section says it's a a back end that backhanded compliment disclaimer no responsibility and the weird thing is I'm I guess I can talk about it because I've done it and I do it you know but I try to check myself like hold on that's like nobody even asked me if I believe which they I think this for a reason though because in the church there you know they assume oh you you can you listen to true seeker you believe in aliens you believe in you know with them really yeah it's funny because like as far as the whole humility thing it's like you just look at the Christian Church like you're just from a base perspective it's like you guys are all saying I know things I know this I know this and know how the world works I know how all spirituality works and know how heaven is what hell is I know all that but also we can't agree on the minutiae details of like the rapture pre trip poster mid trip so let's let's call each other names and split up and divide amongst ourselves because it's like well one of you is wrong one of you has to be wrong so you're both saying that you know how what are the odds that either of you are even close scientifically you're probably all effing wrong like probably in in every way and I think that I think that there's a God that created us he's probably like you're right you're right when you say that you don't know because that that's the epitome of humility is do it except I don't know and I'm open to finding out yeah I have a hard time believing that he's going to punish people for for having an open mind and trying and trying to understand God yeah that just makes no sense yeah I've heard the term you know just because I'm wrong doesn't mean you're right you know I could be wrong but it doesn't mean that you're right you know at the end of the day so it's really it's really interesting but yeah being open-minded and and being humble but then you know they're fighting tooth and nail for a reason because if you look into something else and it makes more sense and it has more to stand it brings more fruit like it may be more sexy it may be more appealing it may help them more and they may leave your church they probably will I mean that's the whole reason why when I was in doing events and in the church and you know do Christian hip-hop and do it of the band thing playing in youth groups it was hard to get churches to work together it was hard to get like if a church was hosting like a Wednesday night Saturday night whatever concert pizza party for the teenagers they would they would email other churches they would try to meet with the pastor's hey let's get all the kids in the community they couldn't do that because if though if they brought their kids to your church and they experienced something that they did in their their own church then they Tina ran the whole you know I'm said liability of losing them a to that church maybe the sound systems better maybe the worships better you know so they could work together because there was a fear of of networking because they would lose followers that happens in the podcasting realms that happens in every realm happens in so much so in the church realm and that was kind of one of the things that really turned me off because I found once I kind of got out of that and started moving more and in the secular market and more of the even in his spiritual market like they that wasn't there and that was a breath of fresh air when I could network with people and there wasn't like scared like and like there's no teams and judgement yeah like trying to you know one to give a statement of faith and make sure you leave with their doctrines and stuff it just gets really weird man right right yeah it's like you're inviting me into your church to to play music and you're insisting that I agree with or I say that I agree your statements of faith what if I don't so you as a Christian are asking me to lie for the sake of spreading the gospel what how does that work exactly do you want me to be honest and human or do you want me to come continue to you know pretend along with you that I've got it all figured out yeah it's I mean it's definitely foolish but they do it to protect their empire you know what I'm saying like it works it's working for them you know what I'm saying to keep keep keep the questions down because if you're asking the bigger questions if you're presented with bigger questions if you watch this interview and you're want to look into the mothers probably people watching never heard that there was a moon hoax I remember the first time I heard it as well he's gonna ask questions right and then so those you're not gonna get the answers unless you ask the questions but it's about looking into it and trying to I'm saying trying to get to the bottom of it and they're doing it for good reason because they're trying to protect their corporation you know I used to do that though because I was so like and when it comes to trying to change the way people think and giving them the truth or whatever I will go undercover in these churches like they would get me that's why I know why they were doing it I would go get asked to come and perform at a church and they'd let me come up and perform for you know 200 kids who whatever and then we're handing out pamphlets signing autographs on the back of pamphlets about how Christmas was pagan and Christmas trees like Christmas trees all in the foyer of the church and we're like we got to get the truth out there man any by any means necessary you know so you like being real vigilant or whatever but thinking that I had the truth or it was my responsibility to tell them about Christmas trees and it's the same type of way that everybody thinks we leave the Lord's work yeah as I know it all you don't saying as the end authority right because I looked into it or I did some research or whatever right we look at just the human experiment as the good Lord has anointed you and appointed you on the war against Christmas trees yeah really believe that sounds hey he did did tell him it's wrong you know for real I used I mean I made a lot of enemies doing that but the truce kind of does it right and until you start getting persecuted yeah start losing friends and you're like it's because I don't want to hear the truth I've been trying to give you out the truth on 9/11 and on this you say no you're being a jerk man you're being a jerk but he ain't you've changed you're not the same person we can't just have a conversation you're always making it about conspiracies you're always making it about religion or you want you always talk about the Muslims every time we hang out while you always point out symbolism in the buildings you know at the restaurants like what hold on you change it bro it's consuming you you're not the same person you know yeah yeah have you did you go through that face as well oh absolutely I'm sure we all did like still working on some relationships because of that yeah yeah like everything everything is conspiracy and maybe it is maybe it is but I don't know like and so I'm like I don't know I mean I don't even necessarily feel like I was like trying to preach to people but it was just like as you're as you're kind of putting some pieces together you talk about it a lot and that kind of is off-putting to some people and I think a lot of it it's fear based on their part because if you like our show we talked about conspiracies politics and religion if you talk about any one of those three things and if you like have a reason and you know what you're talking about it'll shut down the conversation real fast because people will just go whoa I don't I mean if you're really not trying to be a douche right now but like a lot of times if you like bring up politics or something people will get defensive because they don't know about politics and that's fine like I'm not here to say I know what is I'm here to say hey let's explore together and figure out what is I'm not looking for people who agree with me I'm looking for the truth that's all I have you been in or around shouting matches when it comes to the Bible doctrines or conspiracy theories or the government or Masons or anything that where people are so like their dad was a Mason you're like man it Mason's worship Satan but I do my dad is a Mason he doesn't work yes he does bro but let me show you your dad's devil worshiper and you don't even know it like I've been in those conversations have you seen anything I don't know that I have I mean I have poked around yet some family members who are Mason's and been like like in the early days where I was just like everything's evil I would like kind of poke the bear a little bit but no I I've kind of kept a even keel from a Christian like the young man Mario yeah but even even people like that who just trying to point out the you know I'm sending negative and everything everybody because of your research wherever you and this is why I kind of like the kind of the way you're approaching the documentary they believe something because they've been shown some evidence or they had a teacher who was really well-spoken who taught them that this or their parents were racist because they were you know beat up by the opposite race or black people or whatever the cases or white people right so they had this type of bias this prejudice about them for a good reason because they that's their experience it might not be my experience I don't I've met my experience is totally different so when we get into religion as well you look at YouTube any any topic you pick you look at let's look at Mario the Vigilant Christian his channel right hundreds of thousands of subscribers and views and a lot of it's like fear-based like pointing out the Illuminati rituals and everything and the devil is in everything and he's showing you and like maybe even show like like the New Age and say you know this is why I left the New Age and found Christ and there's tons of videos for every bunch of YouTube creators why I left a new age and found Jesus and then you may find something else why I left Christianity and have embraced the New Age why I haven't any other people say well you know I did Kundalini Yoga and I got possessed by demons or I meditated and I got possessed by demons other people I meditated into Kundalini Yoga and I met Christ and I felt the Holy Spirit and I it changed my life so you're gonna have everybody's having these different experiences but they're coming out as to know it all stay away from Kundalini oh great why because I got possessed that's not everybody's story you know what I'm saying and just to understand that there's people that will get get turned off by it without that even being their story just I heard a guy got this exactly demon habla because that's oh that's evil like okay fine okay that has nothing to do with me in my story actually after you came on my podcast I had a couple people leave our group because they're like Oh talk about third ID he's being open-minded about things and listening to other people it's like so in Christian people left because I was talking to another Christian about a different interpretation of scriptures different like it's just a humility thing it's a pride thing because they thought you know this is how the world works they've got it all figured out and truth-seeker he's a he's an evil person because he's dabbling and in dark arts and blah blah blah like so they completely left and they're not a part of the thing anymore it's like I'm not here to say that you're right I'm not going to I'm not going to continue to you know what is that done for the audience though right because just on that subject you lost a couple maybe you gained a couple maybe you ain't a couple like how does that work because I don't want the the closed-minded people so good good riddens it's fine like what's the majority because a lot of people even in the chat now hanging out with us people have biases people believe certain things they want you to kind of be their spokesman you know okay yeah he believes what I believe I'm arrived with them until you with conspiracies with religion and with politics were really weeding out a lot of people you're into conspiracies but you love Jesus to him he lost or anything Jesus thing bro lost me you had me at Flat Earth but you lost me at third eye you know what I'm saying so we're like weeding out a lot of people this is very niche right it's not where we just tap in the Flat Earth and that's all we do Flat Earth all Jesus nothing but Jesus Jesus Jesus or Jesus and faster audience if you take a stance and say I don't know things and this is what is gonna be that cuz I help you a certain certain way okay you had me up until right mushrooms as a bunch of for me you're the Christian who does mushrooms no I did mushrooms they were great like it was a beautiful encounter I'm not gonna deny you'd act like I didn't or say I was possessed or whatever like I have you so I have to quit I don't and they look at me as one who like continually is doing them I don't do mushrooms all the time but I'm not gonna be silent and say I did I'm not gonna go on the new-age show and not say that I have a beautiful relationship with Christ and that's how I found out who God was was through the Christian Church and through Christ this is my story and just to welcome that eat that eclectic bunch of people who are here with us now listen it's beautiful when we can hang out and not argue we can present facts or different beliefs and why we believe them I know why I believe this stuff cuz I went through it it doesn't mean I'm right I know why I leave it I'm sure you're kind of the same way that's how you approach this with humility and be able to have a civil conversation with these people yeah and it it it makes like when people come back to me and they're like wow you're doing something different it makes me happy that they're like yeah they're like appreciating the open-mindedness but it also makes me really angry because I'm like why aren't we all just open-minded and humble I mean this is not a new concept to I mean we can say all day long well Jesus didn't like the gays or Jesus didn't like drugs or Jesus doesn't like these four-letter words that we made up in English yeah but I feel like Jesus talked a whole lot more about loving people yeah then any of the the garbage that we're focusing on so if you believe in Jesus why don't you folks why don't you start there why don't you start with humble yourself and love people because it seems like he was a lot more concerned about that than the gays so you know we can talk after that but if you can't have a conversation then you're not humbling yourself and you're not loving people so you got to start there you got to work on the plank in your own eye before you can start pointing out all the stuff that's going on in the world so and then you start finding out like the documentary as you're doing research you start finding out why people believe this because with the Bible I've been involved in many sects and I've studied that thing like the back of my hand you can prove whatever you want with the Bible a book that big that old that much different difference in the translation and then you can actually go into the Greek in Hebrew to to kind of give yourself some leeway and some playground as well with trying to you know present a doctrine or a theory but what makes the person believe that at the end of the day and in what I've found out I've dinner done a little documentary I don't know if you checked it out but it was called Prasanna and it's talking about channeling and looking into the spirituality inside like that and a lot of these people have a scapegoat and so it's not that God hates gays I mean you can you can you can you know those people who have those uh you know belief systems and that's their their motto that's their banner that they they March under God hates gay them I know people who have t-shirts they preach they stand in front of churches they go to spring break they had their kids with them I mean seven and eight-year-olds preaching God hates [Â __Â ] at Panama City Beach you know what I'm saying I know those people and they believe it when they read the Bible but that's what they believed in the stuff that was presented to them other people like myself God loves gays like you know I'm saying God loves everyone right or whatever so you can take the Bible or any type of information and kind of manipulate it to make it say whatever you want to say but wide I don't think God hates gays I think you hate gays right I think if you have a problem with wear a shirt that says I hate gays they really do like I knew people in was a they were like a big deal and um yeah like and so they find they use the Bible to back up what they already believe I mean we all do it really knowingly just confirmation bias it's it's not like actually no it's it's I write it's subconscious like I've got this this variable that was instilled in me that's my foundation since birth or not birth necessarily but childhood yeah and I'm going to look all around and try and pinpoint the ways that I am right it's not it's not like I'm going to look around and try and figure out what it is it's like let's figure let's find I think that there's God so I'm gonna find God and all the things it's not like let's look around and see all the glory and then wow I've there's probably got to be a God for this to be as magnificent as as it is like that that's how I've come to it and like my my faith in God is much more real now that I'm able to throw it all out and say well what do I honestly think why do I think that way it's not because I was taught that it's not even because a book says that like there's a part of me that thinks like I have no problem with a biblical Aaron see like when somebody comes to me and they're like well I don't believe in God because there's a bunch of you know a bunch of things in the Bible that contradicts itself and I'm like fine that's fine that's not fine it doesn't change anything because I think God's bigger than the Bible yeah if there is if we have changed things in the Bible if we have taken books out if we have changed words I mean we we know that we've translated it obviously it wasn't written in ink so things have changed but did you act - or the Mandela effect when they changed the bottle now have you heard of that man I have yeah yeah that was one of our first episodes digging into some of that stuff but yeah like as far as my faith goes like I don't need the Bible and I know that that sounds heretical to a lot of Christians but it's like I think that the Bible there's a very good chance that the Bible is written and inspired by God but also I think that if it's inspired by God there's a lot of times where I feel like I'm hearing the voice of God and God's telling me to do something God's telling me to write something down or make a piece of artwork I don't know that he is um so maybe when it you know some things in the Bible just hypothetically when God told people just old man to slaughter whole societies maybe that wasn't God maybe that was man saying hey I'm for the for my sake I need to go slaughter this society and I feel like God's telling me to do it maybe he was maybe he wasn't it does not matter well maybe it's some buzz about any more or less real right shirt symbolic analogy yeah it doesn't make God any more or less real whether or not you believe that the Bible is fallible or infallible there is truth and it might be that the Bible is 100% accurate the Word of God but it doesn't have to be that's okay it's fine yeah man I remember a couple couple months ago I was sitting in here and I was playing a video game I was playing League of Legends and somebody pulled up and this old black man got out and I looked out my window I was like who is this I was just sitting out in my shorts and I didn't have a t-shirt on and I'm covered in like sacred geometry and biblical tattoos or whatever and I just run out there what my shirt off and said hey how's it going and uh yeah we'll talk to you about you know the wonderful you know work of Jehovah I was like oh my god you know and I used to welcome that conversation because I would love to battle and I would I would watch youtube videos on how to dismantle their doctrine and like that's what I used to get off on years ago but at this point I could give it I could give a damn me because I know why he's but I know somebody who he's probably had a rough time in his life and a Jehovah's Witness reached out to him and showed him the way and that's why you believe that doctrine I understand that but um he he wanted to go in it I was just trying to find common ground with I'm trying to get back to my game before we lose girls online but anyway he's like talking to me he's like hey so what about those tattoos you got there and uh I have I have on my chest it's the it's the scripture out of the book of Sirach that was actually out of the Apocrypha a book that was taken out of the Bible and it's a beautiful scripture says strive for the truth until death and the Lord shall fight for thee it's out of the Apocrypha and it says Ciroc for two or whatever it is and he said I know I know what that is I know what that book is that's okay he said you think you think it's inspired I said I think it was in the the earliest versions of the Bible and it's definitely in the 1611 and a lot of early versions the disciples had it like they had these these scriptures right and he said well God took it out for a reason so what he left it in there for for a period of time for a reason - I don't know that fresh I don't know if I believe you that God took it out because he maybe God put it in there and man took it out anyway he kind of was looking at my tattoos and he jumped on that one at first and I was like he wanted me to debate him on about that book about it being in the Bible but said look it was inspired it wasn't inspired how you know wasn't inspired as some beautiful words in there that inspired me you know and inspires other people how do you what do you mean it's not inspired by God I said sir what if you wrote a book about your journey about how you overcame drug addiction and all this kind of stuff is that book not inspired oh yeah that would be inspire well why is this book not inspired yeah you know say you need to look it up and see why I said sir I know I was taking I didn't he's looking at my caduceus tattoo and it's the you know the serpent going around the stick and and I'm not trying to get esoteric with him I used to brag about the stuff and try to go and that's another self sister I gotta go man kept me out there came to play and me out there with my shirt off like he was just like dissected all my tattoos I'm like sir I'm not trying to do this with you today but I enjoyed the conversation back in the day I would have tried to convince that old man I would have even said like out like I was vigilant about this I was a sir you and I would have took the stance and said sir you're involved in some things that you don't know what you're practicing you're involved in demonic activity extra-biblical I you I would what he's trying to do to me I would have tried to do to him and went on that battle with them and I used to do that but I'm in a much better place now where I can just be open to the Croatian yeah and like I mean we probably both grew up in a church the church mentality of you know every single person you see on the street is somebody who needs you to talk to them to save them from the pits of hell it's like that's a lot to put on a child so yeah please you're gonna have to convince me really strongly of that otherwise I'm gonna live a whole life of guilt and I have a hard time thinking that 11 God wants us to live a whole life of guilt wherever everything every single soul that we come in contact with we are responsible for I mean Jesus wasn't 100% all the time saying this is how you must be saved do these rules yeah let's do this this it's like no Jesus it seemed like he was a humble chill guy who liked to love people and yeah walk with them where they were and I think that speaks a lot more to a person situation than you meet somebody on the bus and say hey have you heard the the good word about the Lord Jesus Christ this is how you must be say like that's not going to make anything stick that's not going to make that's not going to change somebody's heart or to even change their mind that's just going to probably piss them off and make good more more firmly solidify their opinion about Christians being annoying that's all that's going to do but if you feel like the humility and what the the things that Jesus really talked about if you live it if you become the embodiment of Christ if you humble yourself and be open-minded that is kind of a ripple effect that will spread to people and you don't have to even use words to convince them that God exists because that dude over there he's just an infectious dude because he's like open to what I'm saying he respects me he loves me I want to be around that guy so that infects that person with that kind of mentality that that's a possibility and so on and so forth I think that that there's a lot to that that we just kind of gloss over and well yeah be humble be kind whatever blah blah blah there let's let's go back to Facebook and yelling at people about feminism and stupid stuff like I don't know like we just put so much poison into our mind into our lives and like through social media we is Facebook helping your life is Facebook making you happier is Facebook you know putting good happy thoughts in like is Facebook making you love your fellow man more or is it making you this cynical douchebag and I'm really trying to control my language because you asked me to speak much more I would say biblically if the youtuber rules but I'm wondering now they're like we've already combed this while I'm wondering if this is gonna be you know I'm saying didn't you know some of the words that we've used is this gonna be demonetized already let's vote yes or no I don't want it to be I need a few dollars you know this is a good episode there's a lot of people watching live you know what I'm saying so is this gonna be demonetized and so that's weird that I actually met that that thought passes through my mind though that's the bad thing because I don't think we've covered we haven't even really well we said Sandy Hook three times now and I'm you know maybe I should spoil it out for hooks and hooks a godly man I can't monetize any of my stuff anymore so I'm I just say what is covered you cover too much I guess like I mean did you monetized or you just haven't been monitored got monetized but 90% of what I put out there like no you can't monetize that because they don't want to ads on you talking about that it's like all I'm doing is talking about the news like just saying what's going on in the world and you're like well you don't want ads on the news well go turn on the TV that's what's happening what are you talking about you know no YouTube's stupid it is man it's really weird this whole thing is this super weird now I'm looking - and let me uh I want to I want to there's this um and you in your YouTube hub in the back there's this creator studio right and so when you look at your dashboard at the bottom there's this recommended video from YouTube like some of their creators and some of their people and you get to kind of see who they are and they're answering some of the questions now about D monetization and curse words and I watch the videos on them and it's really weird because there's a spokesman who works for Google but she's trying to be one of the youtubers hey what's up guys smash that like button but in a sec hold on you you like one of the this isn't real this is an act you know hey what's up guys you know how to hold YouTube what's up and that's how they they started their videos I've even probably done it doing my gaming stuff in the past what's up guys you know and this chick is doing it and they're showing you all these in Utah you're talking or watching to these Google executives that work for YouTube and they're trying to be crazy they're trying to talk like this what's up guys and it's a hold on man this is a act and I could see right through it but you're trying to be one of the normies this is very strange it's really weird as you as you come on here to tell us why we're being deeply formed you're gonna get guys juice sandy hook City or something done yeah I mean you know I had my old channel delete it I don't know why I had had several channels they were all connected to one it got deleted I'm I'm about to hit 10,000 us on on this channel now and I've been working hard to be consistent I got in early and monetized this new channel before you know the whole ad pocalypse thing happened in the whole way let's make sure you have a thousand viewers in ten and and a four thousand watch hours so I was able to catch it earlier to make a little bit of money it's not a lot it's text write it but it helps to be able to do this full-time are you you podcasting and doing what you're doing full-time yet I'm pretty sure you kinda you have side side hustles and stuff too which I still get well but yeah I actually run my own media business I do wedding videography and graphic design and I have a media company that I run from my main thing the podcast is just like I I am trying to not approach it as a business necessarily I'm trying to approach it as my exploration into what is in the world and you can come along and I am completely transparent like on my patreon you can see that I'm making pennies off of it and that's fine I'm okay with that cuz this isn't about money this is just about me trying to figure out what is and change the world one uncommon conversation at a time as I put it a you know yeah well so you having these uncomfortable conversations but are you in a and are you in a place creatively where you're comfortable do you like doing the wedding photography I'm sure wedding photography pays pretty good right that you can just like that kind of money can open up a side hustle or give you time you know more than time to podcast because when I do do this way it brings in enough money so you are you cool with that balance or are you in a good spot with them yeah yeah yeah everything's everything's flowing well especially as I get some of my mental stuff in order I am able to be creative all day long which is great and do the podcast as a as kind of a way to well I'm like believe it or not I was like a very much an introvert and type 5 on the any gram and all that fun stuff but so the podcast is kind of pulling me out of my shell to be more real be more raw and forced me to have a deadline for creativity on a regular basis where like with music it would take it takes me forever to actually you know go that last 25% go like I love the idea I love this process I love making a thing and then I can never finish a thing with the podcast it's been a way to make my brain go you got to do this Monday every single every single week you put it out whether it's whether you feel like it's perfect or not you put it out and you move on to the next thing so it's been kind of a mental exercise for me just to know I do I like doing laughs streams um we we tried live-streaming for a while we did our new show or our second weekly show we did that as live stream but I just ran into so many hurdles with the internet problems and getting kicked out and all sorts of stuff that I was like I don't need that kind of stress in my life so I'm just gonna go back to pre-record yeah so you're talking to might go back to it sometime but yeah it's fun man I enjoy the community here with it with the chat shout out to everybody you know hanging out and a lot of cool questions there I'm trying to read read all the comments and stuff so I do see them let's see so you mentioned getting your your um saying your mind straight your mind right do you have you struggled or do you deal with depression or mental illness or anything I know you had joeys FinCEN on from um Stan formerly of Emory and of the bad Christian podcast who that's this big thing he talks a lot about as a Christian being okay with hey some things aren't working right in my head and I need help which we couldn't add from a Christian you had to get prayer to kind of get over that you know what I'm saying did do you struggle with any of that or that it's like chronic depression or anything that that's a struggle for you uh depression yeah and I didn't even realize it until started taking some DXM if you want to really get demonetized but some mild psychedelics that pulled me out of a funk that I didn't realize I was in for a long long time realized I was depressed and actually realized that I struggle with ADHD which is actually probably what led to a lot of the depression because I have a hard time like I said I have a hard time focusing on things and getting through a project and so they leads to like me not dedicating myself to things I struggled with paranoia struggled with not trusting people around me and it caused a lot of problems in relationships and family and all that type of stuff and right now I'm yeah working through it working through it so yeah yeah that's it's kind of taboo man you know to talk about from a Christian perspective and not even just a Christian perspective but also the spiritual perspective and I would a hundred percent there's a lot of people watching this show who are going through some weird even mild psychosis we talk we're talking about the moon being Hollow and beings living in them or the earth being Hollow and entities communicating with them through the earth we cover some really out there stuff and I believe there's truth to a lot of it but then again I go some of our religion and even the spiritual community it's a breeding ground for people who hear voices right we talked about this we talk about you know maybe you're not crazy maybe you are empathetic maybe you are picking up on energies that other people and with their strong personalities and you can't look at them around be in the face because of the energy and like there's a lot of there's another way to look at a lot of this stuff but then on the other side of the seesaw is maybe I'm dealing with a mental illness and it's it's really hard to compare the two from coming from the Christian perspective it was all demons everything's demonic any mental illness any type of illness spirit of infirmity we're gonna cast it out you got depression let me cast it out of you you know I'm saying versus changing your diet you know people know beasts and just treating their body any type of way and not knowing that that has you know plays a part of your health in a way that you feel the way that your brain works or your second brain matches your your gut your stomach but what are you putting in your body it adds all of this stuff to it and I get those comments man and it makes sometimes it makes me not want to answer my damn inbox because I get them so much you know yeah and it's weird but stop people jump into everything demon well that not really that more just of the the mentally unstable people who think that I'm a God reincarnated who think that God sends he's here to be my wife like a woman who's like stalking me and my wife warning like wishing harm upon my wife because she's my rightful wife set by the Freemasons I got the Italy ill and you know ready some crazy circles yeah no I don't run it like those are months get away from me like I don't want to entertain that but stuff but unknowingly we are it is crazy and it is crazy for out their spiritual etheric I'm a Palladian from the fifth realm of density and I'm come here to bring you good tidings like those people they're there but I'm telling you and know it sounds crazy it's funny the UFOs and aliens but there was just as many crazy people in in Christianity bro who would say God told me that useful in it versus Zeus told me that you were my husband but we've seen the God told me you were my husband and God right and even though you're already a married man happily married you're the pastor of the church God spoke to this woman and said that y'all were supposed to be together like weird stuff like that and there's this weird breeding grounds for this stuff so and I get it too much it's sad man and I talk about a lot I don't know what I can do about it you know what I'm saying mmm-hmm I don't know do you get any of that no so I say like like I dig into all the things but I don't know may-maybe has something to do with you going down you go down more of the the esoteric and spiritual realms I spirit I touch on it for sure but I yeah I just put someone's like let's talk about all the things yes I mean some of those diehard conspiracy theories I mean you're we're even looking at targeted um sane targeted individuals like that's raining and there's a lot of people and that kind of laps over to the spiritual that the government's monitoring the government sending me thoughts there are these cell towers outside of my house that changed the way that I feel day to day I mean that's in the conspiracy see circles that it's kind of a big thing right now right mm-hmm G stuff yeah five we're gonna be talking we need to talk about 5g before it happens and all of our brains are scrambled but yeah there's a lot of strange stuff going on and I'm just trying to figure out what is trying to explore trying to whatever and love people along the way and yeah well I I don't I don't end up running I think thankfully so far I haven't run into too many of the people who think that I'm a god and they need to take out my wife to be with me or so I've never no I haven't run into that yet no please God yeah no but I think but obviously it comes with the territory you know it it comes with you know the big I don't think it's gonna go away you know I think this woman would maybe go away but uh there's others you know what I'm saying and was with religion and with politics and with conspiracies like you're the bigger you get there get there come in bro like know for sure for sure you're gonna get the hey I'm a targeted individual I need you to get this implant out help me you're gonna get chase you're gonna get that kind of stuff yeah today you always have to be rational and and be humble because you don't know what you're talking about with everything right what if they're right maybe they do maybe they do I don't know but what if they're right show up at my door with a with a Red Solo Cup in your hand and you save got an implant in your head I don't know what to tell you man I know I love you I hope that you can work on more than just that implant in your head and it's all we can do it's crazy I don't know I know I joke around and I say you know I joke around until the whole wife thing comes up cuz my wife doesn't like me joke about the wife chair right like but I'll say like what you know what of these people aren't lying what if I die get to heaven and talk to the father and he says you know I sent the Archangel Michael to you and he sent you messages on Facebook like I get those messages hey I'm the Archangel Michael do you believe me let's meet together let's I'm gonna travel to like angels use Facebook yeah for real that's why I can travel to you they messaged you on Facebook yeah like if you can like we mean do I believe that you are like if you are you can show me you can appear here in my room or whatever you know so show me they don't ask me if I believe you without any type of evidence but what if I get to heaven and these and and gods like I sent the Archangel Michael to you I sent your real wife don't tell me why I sent you your real wife and she tried to tell you that you were your current wife is an alien is what she says and that y'all were supposed to be in I've met my mother who was reincarnated from a past life who's trying to reach out to me through facebook messenger you know and and these people aren't being funny they're dead f insidious they think they're my mother in another another life I remind them of their son maybe you know who they lost their son and I'm with you I want to get to why the do you believe that I'm your son is it random or did you have a son that I remind you of right and you're like that was my son there's something a kindred connection I don't know what it is you don't know why do you believe that is it a chemical imbalance did you watch too many documentaries what is it I have a compassion for you I'm not I don't want to make fun of you especially if you're dealing with a mental illness you know it saying so it gets into some weird but also don't stalk me definitely don't stop me like we know we had to go file police reports you know because I do live appearances what if she shows up mm-hmm you know like this is real [Â __Â ] like for real you know huh what do you do crazy stuff man I don't know I don't have an answer for you but no but like that you're open to like maybe maybe I'll get there and he'll be like yeah that's real Michael came down he embodied this old woman and she started you on Facebook for a while like maybe I'm just gonna feel bad for you yeah you were stubborn Derek I tried to you know I wanted to show you things in the spirit but you wouldn't follow him you know you asked for what did you follow on Facebook you block them right like you have to I really feel like you have to laugh about this kind of stuff or will drive you mad it really will dispel equality the conspiracies and the politics those are the big three you have to laugh about it you have to and it's too serious why are you laughing about this you know people are dying people are being deceived NASA and the moon and they're killing people and pizza gate we know and we're pretty sure we think that's happening like no we men it's horrifying if it's happening then yeah let's expose it but we can also be human and you know tell a joke in there it doesn't mean I'm making fun of an atrocity that happened I'm just being I'm just being me and me is sometimes off-putting to others and that's fine so that's I mean that's the holy God another podcast really I mean that's the whole thing with the whole Alex Jones or Sandy Hook and all that kind of stuff and I talked to uh OD DTV who has a really big channel but he was on here yeah and I was kind of condescending towards conspiracy theories just because I've kind of been there and done that but uh I mentioned you know this whole thing about the Sandy Hook and then they're like these people know there's no thinking there's no let's do more research there's some interesting information they know without the shot beyond a shadow of a doubt and at the end of the day with these conspiracy theories especially when it gets into that kind of stuff and it can you know the staged whatever you call it uh you know controlled opposition stuff but uh if you're right and you get to the bottom of it you're a hero if you can these people are actors and they're hired and their own Craigslist you know they're there's ads on Craigslist and that's fake you can we can go on and make one now screenshot it upload it you're a hero if you get to the bottom and say look this really didn't happen you know your kids died in vain whatever but if you're not if you're wrong and you're declaring like these people do in the faces of someone who lost a child and you're telling them that hey your kid isn't really dead you're hiding them we all know it nobody died in these events you know you're the biggest douchebag ever and you're right you know and they're doing that I mean that's why Alex Jones got the platform right essentially right and that's what I've said from the beginning of our show like I'm not going to come out and say 9/11 was an inside job I might come out and say let's look at 9/11 and see why people think it was an inside job I mean I might even think it was an inside job but I'm not going to tell you it was because more than likely people died and I'm not going to pretend like they didn't it I'm not going to you know trying boost my numbers by saying by saying you know there's all there's all fake nobody died whatever people probably died okay just chill out and that's the thing about Alex Jones like it with the Sandy Hook thing I'm gonna keep saying it so make sure you get the platform when he came out and was talking about it he said definitively this is what is and he always says this is what is he knows what is yeah it's like ah and because of that you have to you have to backpedal because you keep making these false claims that you know what is even though you weren't there unless you were there you don't know there might be a piece of evidence that you're missing just just say here's what is here's what I've found now do with that what you want that's kind of my my point like I don't ever have to backpedal because I've never said I know a thing I've always just said let's explore together let's explore the world and try and figure out what is together and there's if I'm never lying because I'm never saying I know a thing I'm just saying I know that I've found this that's the only thing I know you know do with that what you want that's on you yeah I'm there too and I think I think it comes from the Christian background of saying that I was right and this is the way and this isn't the way you know in that kind of thing so now I'm a little bit more open to other belief systems and people thinking outside the box or whatever the case is cuz at the end of the day we don't know they could be right I haven't done it like people will say okay so you're promoting that all roads lead to heaven like all religions lead to heaven are you saying that I don't know I haven't practiced all religions I've practiced this one they're not gonna tell you the incisors haven't been to heaven or to God right it's like I know that this one did and I've seen people on this other one that seems to be very similar to where I was and this person on this other one so maybe but then again there's people within all of those religions all of all of those conspiracies all within those groups who are crazy people and need to be in the government in the Vatican all of them yep you know there's some beautiful Catholics out there band you know there's some beautiful Christians they say you know there's something that you know there's some cool Muslim so there's some cool Christians too you know yeah throw that in the mix and I've been there done that I guess yeah in our forum we've got Catholics atheists freemasons Muslim I don't know if we have any Muslims but gays all sorts of people just like we're just here being human together and if there's a point to life and if there's a point to church it's just - in my opinion it's - I mean in the Bible it says love your enemy I would say that maybe did don't even consider them your enemy just love the person that you're talking to just humble yourself and converse with humanity because we you don't know things and neither do they so let's just talk about it it's okay it just come down here in the chat triple-m says and I'm assuming they're talking about um Alex Jones but says yeah but he's a performance artist not his fault they can't read between and separate the man and the truth I'm assuming he's talking about Alex Jones what do you think about that like that I'm definitely if like if I get in trouble I'm gonna scream that true Sikh is a persona you know I'm saying like that's I'm ready to say it right I made it all right true seekers a persona you know I'm in the spirituality you know I'm not but I'm willing to sing if my life was on the line maybe or whatever yeah so I'm just that's what Alex Jones did you know he said I'm a character I'm a persona online describes he got a crazy conspiracy and I'm playing a playing a role like he said that in court his kids were on the line he took his kids from him what do you think I had Alex Jones his ex-wife on my show yeah Jones you did and like getting the other side of that story she says that he's a he's a monster douchebag but she also doesn't say that he's Bill Hicks and she's lived with him like like there's so many different ways to approach the type of thing like I've definitely had thoughts of maybe Alex Jones is paid off to you know throw out bits of information be controlled opposition and lead people down a crazy path and make conspiracy people look crazy but there's also another part of me that's like there's a lot of compelling things did the Bill Hicks argument if you actually dig into it it seems crazy but if there's a lot of stuff there but Kelly Jones III also choose to believe her that she's known him as Alex Jones I'd take her at her word um maybe she's lying I don't know like there's there's so many possibilities for Alex Jones to come out and say that he was playing in character if I'm if I'm being humble and honest I can say if I'm taking him at his word that all the things he's saying he believes and whatever he's just human made sure he could have he could have just come out and said you know it's a character because yeah if if I'm in court and I'm fighting for my life for my kids you know he probably has a whole lot of mental issues too um I'm gonna say whatever you need to hear so that I can paint kids so I'll throw the whole business under the bus and if I can still keep the business after great that it's it goes back to the the buzz aldrin thing like stop stop stop that's assuming that every single little tiny thing is a mic drop moment Alex Jones said that so Alex Jones is a shill like maybe not maybe yeah maybe maybe he is maybe he's not it's not his like stop just playing the same things over and over in your mind and putting them on YouTube for three hours the same clip over and over with x-files music behind it that is not a mic drop moment and you're doing yourself a disservice you're doing the whole truther community a disservice by putting those out there you are becoming the control opposition by buying into that and just running headlong into the darkness with yeah you're a flag that has one tiny bit of evidence that isn't even evidence of anything like yeah I don't know it's just it's crazy I really believe in a happy ending right I want to happen you any more than anything in life you know what I'm saying to kind of go out and whether it's you know saying leave a legacy die happy with your wife in your arms something like that you know kids by yourself whatever maybe everybody goes at the same time I really believe in a happy ending and maybe so because I'm seeing so many bad endings within my own family and friends and things like that and people who were in church and then they were ministers and now they're on drugs strung out you know but then we look at so I'm really big into this happy-ending thing and look at what's going on in in Hollywood and so we talk about the Illuminati and paying a price for fortune and fame to be in Hollywood to be one of the a list or celebrities there is this notion that in order to do that part of the part of that persona or part of that deal and I've heard seen videos on this I don't know much about it we're just on this idea out there part of the idea is the fact that you can have it but in the end like you have to come to ruin like you have to be destroyed at the end and we look at a lot of these people and there's so many like we could just go on we can you know forever Elvis we look at Elvis we look at like you know right now our Kelly Alex Jones Bill Cosby what if they did sign a contract what if they did make a deal and at the end of their life at the end of their contract it has to be taken from them you know what I'm saying it almost seems like something like that's happening or are they just finding out all these dirt and that all these people were douchebags from the beginning you know did they have to go along with it do they have to kind of accept their fate of you can you see that as being an option or a scenario that's being played out with all these celebrities I mean at you don't say what's gonna Becky from a full house you know all this stuff going on with her with you know paying for her kids to get into school and all that stuff they just hit the news - I know I know I'm not entirely sure what you're asking well I'm asking do you think that some of these people far as the Illuminati or whatever on some of these celebrities have they signed contracts or made secret oaths or pangs that they can be successful but in the end of their turn and will at the end of their success they have - maybe it's a god thing maybe it's the Matt when you choose the path of darkness in the end it doesn't end well look at Michael Jackson look at Bill Cosby maybe it's just just the way the universe works but maybe it's us assigned oh yeah that hey you can have all this money this beautiful life you're gonna you know drink the finest of wines and eat from a golden spoon but at the end we're gonna take it you only have 40 years to do this and we're gonna help you but part of our ritual is we have to rip it from you the stars must fall like what do you think I don't know I think that's definitely a possibility that it could be some sort of Illuminati thing yeah I'm open to that I also think it could be you know you you get the money you get the power you get the fame just like from a lay person's perspective you just don't need we can't handle all that we can't like as humans we can't we're not meant to have that much pressure on ourselves and so we end up snapping at some point and go down a dark path like once like I mean look at people like Johnny Depp like you get to a certain level of success you never wanted to be the Disney Pirates of the Caribbean guy he wanted to be like the art film guy and then suddenly he's everywhere and he can't go anywhere without being noticed like II that level of pressure for the human brain you eventually turned to he said that he spends like a half a million dollars on wine I'm every month it's like what do you do we there's you don't have a life anymore outside of this box that you've created for yourself and so yeah eventually you just go crazy because you can't just exist in nature and then in the world and really enjoy life for what it is because you are you are this product that has been created and you can't escape that no matter what you do unless you like Chappell out to Africa or something yeah go to another country because you don't want to be a part of it and there's there's theories about Michael Jackson actually not being dead and leaving the country faking his death to leave the country just so that he could go and live a normal life for I'm not saying I believe it but it makes sense like when you get to that point that level of stardom where you're like I either kill myself to get away from the madness like the this constant cycle of cameras in my face no matter where I go or I you know leave the country and go live amongst simpler people yeah it's good stuff man dan I appreciate your coming on hanging out with me man I really enjoyed this podcast we're getting into a bunch of conspiracy theories all that kind of stuff talking about the moon and everything else as well let people know where they can go to check out the trailer for the documentary and as well you have it you have an IndieGoGo campaign where people can help fund it because it's definitely costly you've kind of pulled back on some other things that you're doing so that you can focus more up on making this documentary that everybody knows the links that they can go to to get involved and help you create this film man for sure man first off thanks so much for having me on I really appreciate it it's been fun long good in-depth chat I don't get enough of that in my life even though I do it all I mean I don't get enough of this it's hitted miss yes but yeah the podcast you can find at TSI d-pod comm it's called the system is down we talk about all these things conspiracies politics and religion do so with an open civil mind and it's on all the platforms iTunes stitcher Google Play and all those things to YouTube for the the film itself the documentary you can find it by going to the moon the myth the legend calm or moon myth legend calm and you can find like you can look it up on IndieGoGo I'm not I don't actually necessarily need money because I don't had make all the things but I'm going to run into some some snags along the way that will need some financing but mostly the IndieGoGo is a just a way to preorder so you can get digital copies you can get the DVD you can get posters and merch and stuff like that moon myth legend calm about you trying to say exactly I'm doing this not based on your support but if you want to be a part of it you can get your name in the credits on the film as a producer because you're supporting it and that type of thing but it will happen one way or another I will be doing it and I set the goal as low as you could which i think is just like $500 so yeah it's gonna happen and you can check out all the stuff at moon myth legend com Thank You Man thanks for the podcast bro I enjoyed it everybody get your money right go to and support this man and I got we got a lot of good feedback from different people in the chat they loved you man cool and uh I appreciate it we'll do it again soon man absolutely anytime you want me man go one each piece yep yeah ladies and gentlemen make sure y'all go and check out the episode that I did with him on his podcast so I did an episode it's been been some time ago now probably over a year but it was a good show and uh like I say he he took a chance having me on and some of his followers some of his people quit quit watching quit paying attention when I came on as a guest so make sure that was a good episode make sure y'all go check that out yeah man so many conspiracy theories right where do they in I mean you see why the people make a good living talking about these conspiracy theories and stuff and I don't really I I call myself not really you know getting into a lot of this stuff anymore it doesn't move me that much it's interesting it's definitely interesting but I don't tackle a lot of these subjects anymore from my perspective I mean people would say that the whole alien thing or the god thing or the spiritual ESP all of these things which I love to cover right they would say that that those things are conspiracies right that those things are just made up and and stuff talking about aliens and stuff like that so you I think you've really just got to pick your battles at the end of the day and so because they're like one rabbit hole leads to the next and I was talking about people getting into conspiracy theories and so there are certain things that are you know wake people up that there's certain things that are you know I remember when I was working a regular job and I had to get up really early I had to get up there like eventually I had to get up at 1:30 in the morning to go to work and I would set my alarm clock but eventually my alarm clock wouldn't wake me up anymore I would set the alarm and then I would sleep through it and it would just incorporate into my dream like in my dream I would be getting up getting ready for work or getting ready for school whatever and it wouldn't wake me up in the morning I had to have another alarm so I set the regular alarm and I set my cell phone and the cell phone would play a different alert and that tone is what woke me up so the cell phone would instantly wake me up when it when that tone went off and so I think it's like that spiritually I think it's like that consciously when we're talking about conspiracy theories politics or religion those are the three major ones right and within those three there's things that wake people up you find out that the pastor's sleeping with women in the church you're like oh damn now I've lost faith in church some people have lose faith in God when that happens or whatever but it's usually something that wakes you up to start looking into the dark side maybe a 9/11 was a big one I know early on for me it was 9/11 I watched one of the documentaries what was that um Fahrenheit 9/11 which really it's deep but it gets a lot deeper like who says that and I got it and I got started listening to music I was listening to immortal technique I don't listen to immortal technique anymore like you know but I was listening to music that talked about the government that talked about 9/11 that talked about false flags and all of these kind of thing to whatever so that stuff woke me up early on got into Mason's got into and still into religion right the Bible and Christianity but just kind a little bit deeper a little bit deeper a little bit deeper as you keep going and like you say there's no in to these conspiracies genealogies continue who are the Illuminati bloodline like all of this stuff continues to go and there's no end to it there really there really isn't and um and you find other information that contradicts what you believe and you've been studying and even preaching or putting out videos for this stuff for years and now you find information that contradicts what you've been teaching openly for years right and then you have to kind of renege and kind of retract and apologize so hopefully and and kind of make it right but there's different things that wait different people up I couldn't wake up to that alarm some friends as soon as they hear that alarm they're they're up and atom ready for work you know and uh so I respect it right I respect that different people are in certain types of communities and groups and they believe certain types of information for a reason so um but I think that it all ties in together so for me I'm at this point now to where like there's nothing you that you can tell me that's gonna shock me like that's where I am with conspiracy research that goes for Flat Earth that goes for hollow moon that goes for all of it that goes for 9/11 that goes with false flags whatever I think a lot of people are brand-new to that survey I found out all this information I've seen the video why is the same crisis actor in every video why is she showing up watch this lady showing up at every event you know these different things that kind of stick out to you well you know hey something's going on man something's going on there's a lot going on and whatever it is that wakes you up to that that higher truth to start asking those bigger questions man people start fighting for tooth and nail again religion you were hooked on drugs you were an alcoholic you were a savage and then you gave your life to Christ now you're at peace with God you want to tell everybody you have the secret of the universe you have the secret formula to end alcoholism you have the secret formula to end pornography addiction you have the secret formula so you're not a jerk anymore and it's Jesus so you start telling everybody screaming it from rooftops doing whatever you can and you've become annoying because that's your spiel Jesus Jesus Jesus that's understandable it changed your life you're gonna want to tell everybody you're gonna be overbearing you're gonna suffer persecution you know you keep telling people the same thing with veganism you know somebody finds veganism they start watching documentaries from PETA they start watching documentaries about you know the big you know I'm saying farming industries and what they're doing to these animals and how they're breeding them and chemicals are shooting into them and it's like inhumane so that becomes your gospel that becomes your you're telling everybody you're making people mad you're known that every time you come up you're as a vegan guy or you're the weight loss guy or whatever it is you're known for that and so people just cling on to these these truths or whatever and at the end of the day I don't think that any one of these things in and of itself is the end-all when it comes to Authority or when it comes to truth or the answer I think it's right there in the middle of all of it in the middle of all of it the conspiracies the the research the religion Jesus all of it it's right in the middle you go to any church and you got Jesus but they're obese they're still depressed you know the scripture says that you shall know the truth and the truth shall make you free how come if you if your church has the truth why is everybody bound up by pornography addiction pill addiction why are the divorce rates so high in church you have Jesus but you can't keep your marriage together hey what's going on like there's some type of facade that you're living in that really doesn't have any power it doesn't have any weight whatever religion whatever you know conspiracy it's not an end-all to it so again when you come to me with these different conspiracies I don't I believe in the devil I believe in like a a negative energy or entities that may be all together make up Satan I make up a kingdom of darkness that is the adversary not to God but is their adversary to us that fight against us that war with us in the spirit realm in heavenly places I believe in that believe there's a battle going on for your mind as a battle going on for your soul 100% the universe doesn't exist without positive and negative you have to have the duality you have to have both sides for any of this to work just to have the battery you have to have the positive and negative you have to have the yin and the yang it's in all of it so for you to be able to make that contrast and understand that you're in the middle there is a balance I'm telling you it's not just all or nothing we our minds work like that religion works like that you see they're all or nothing you can't be lukewarm all or nothing and we've just been on these these these waves where like we either all in or we're all out all this or all that we're 100% here 100% there it is a balance there with your religion with your spirituality and all of this stuff so that's what it comes out to at the end of the day there's nothing you can tell me that's gonna blow my mind I don't have to search it out to prove it I know the devil is wicked I know that people are dark and wicked I know that there's people ruling I've done enough of research I've watched enough documentaries I've had enough experiences spiritually to know that there's more going on that there's a good side there's a bad side and that the Bible is true when it says choose this day who you will serve with you know what who are you gonna serve knowingly or unknowingly so that's why I don't really get into a lot of it I don't really look into it I've mentioned you know it's splitting the fan base they tell you don't talk about religion politics I guess we could though conspiracies in there don't talk about it because you're going to split your fan base I don't want to do that I don't even though we already do we talked about the beginning you we're talking about you know spirituali spirituality conspiracies now we're talking about Jesus so you just kind of fine-tuning your niche to a smaller audience because like with each idea with each each each stance that you take or you talk about or say that you believe in you're gonna find tuna down either even smaller you know but I'm okay with that that's cool but essentially I said that on an on a podcast where I interviewed Santos Bonacci like I knew what flat earth was I knew how big it was I have a bunch of friends who are into it I never got into it even with a platform I seen it because I've I know rabbit trails I know how you can get into it and it will consume you any of it the Jesus thing the conspiracies the religious the politics it can consume you I did not need and don't need anything like that to consume me to be what spiritually well-rounded instead of focusing on all the negative stuff or whatever I understand the government lies you're gonna understand that the pastor's lie people like it's people we're dealing with people people lie so when it comes down to dealing with Flat Earth for me I said this on the Santos Bonacci show the first like really deep research I did I guess or conversation I had was with Santos Bonacci and I think he's one of the the leading experts when it comes to flat earth so I had Santos Bonacci on but I was able to see what flat earth did to him it did to his fan base and did to him and he split his fan base right down the middle and because that became all he talked about and he from someone who was well rounded in spirituality in what I would call some some biblical truth as well the zodiac the body the mind the spirit how everything works being very well rounded it shifted to where it became all about flat earth or all about veganism and making fun of meat-eaters and making fun of those type of people so I've had Santos Bonacci on a couple times I had that conversation with him but I seen what it did to him and I've seen what it's done to other people and how other people laugh at it so I made sure that I didn't go down that road to split the fanbase in half not really I mean I know that it would do that but that it would it would pull me away from what I'm called to do and I didn't need that it's not that I don't believe in it or it's it's not a thing or whatever to me it's it's whatever it doesn't again for me what does it have to do with the price of rice in China what does it what does it change about the way that I operate the type of father that I am the type of friend that I am the type of husband that I am getting into flatters and just you know it's interesting read it for yourself look into it but when you become you become a spokesperson for the Flat Earth Society you know you be that becomes your gospel without even knowing it or without even wanting it to be so um and now we look at this now so I see hoary seats he's in the chat and he says truseq I'm close with many of the bigger speakers of Flat Earth Marx sarg'nt David wise Bob from globe Buster's Robbie Davison who run big events and I've done commercials how do you feel about Santos Bonacci on him you know I see what it done CentOS is kind of in a bad place man because of all that kind of stuff and also how do you feel about Logan Paul being a big big name one of the biggest name flat-earthers now Logan Paul you know a lot of people have kind of put their credibility on the line because they believed in it they believed in it and then they've kind of you know b.o.b the rapper he definitely stuck his head out there now there's all the other people saying well those guys are Sheils those guys are controlled opposition they were planted by the by the government to get in here and in trick people mess people up I've had people say that about me you definitely hear that about Jordan Maxwell somebody a while ago and said that you know all these names and all these people had there's documentaries and videos exposing them you haven't made it unless there's a video exposing you your favorite pastor your favorite teacher there's videos exposing them and if there's not brother Wayne will make one that's what he does Oh Triple M says Logan Paul is the next young toh Rogen yeah he's tryna take off in a podcasting game he's seen money he's seen that there was a niche there so he's got his podcast going on interviewing a bunch of big names that was so weird man it's so weird but anyway I think it's enough of the rambling for here it was a good show I enjoyed uh you know getting into conspiracy theories I I like them and ever it reminds me of like when I first got into this type of stuff cuz it was into some of the things that kind of pull you but you don't want that to become your gospel you don't want that to be what you're known for I'm known for the guy who proved that the earth is flat or the guy who argues with people about the the flat earth or whatever I don't want to be that guy you know some of you have become that guy don't even know it not just flat earth I'm just you become that guy there to say you watch out for him stay away from him you've given him a good reason to know uh Horry says uh y'all check out his channel too I check him out when he goes live sometimes as well he says what I do is go on chatroulette you know tinychat in other places and riding the Tesla that they launch speaking that I'm a flat earth to unsuspecting Internet goers it's funny yeah man I've seen uh I've seen some of that it's it is funny chatroulette is crazy very crazy I don't go in there but I've seen those videos where people do it so anyway yeah that's the end of this show man imma go ahead and end it let me know what topics you want to see me cover like I I exist for the audience as well I do take suggestions and stuff especially for people who

stuff is what the fans like I they want to hear those crazy theories I don't know why it sells people say that it doesn't but it does man you know I'm not really the more interviews I do with people the more I talk about the stuff the less I want to you know the less I believe people all these spiritual gurus come on here the less I believe them you know and I could see through it maybe it's a spiritual gift of discernment but I can read people I could see through it and I'll have people on how I'm just like man you don't even believe what you're telling me and you know it and you know I know it you know you have these people on here and but you know at the end of the day you know we can say we had the conversation and there's a lot of people who are just afraid of the conversation and that's one thing you could say that I didn't do and just doing that as kind of created the platform that I'm not scared to have the conversation we were told not to have the conversation from a Christian perspective told not to don't give these people a platform don't let them tap into your platform all of these kinds of things most of you guys wouldn't know who I was unless I networked with these people outside of of these realms obviously Danny Danny Goro he tells me straight up he found me by listening to the Bizzy Bone interview that I did Kris Garner's in chat you said you found me

together people you can do it you can have a peace of mind I found it in Christ it worked I was going crazy I was those schizophrenic so I'm talking about I was becoming one like really like having my mind taken from me by entities that felt like were they were a lot stronger than I was but there's a piece of monitor so anybody out there who's struggling with illness I believe there's help I believe there's different ways and different things that we can do to cope with these energies these these vibrations that were receiving from everywhere the different winds being pushed around by the winds I believe those winds are solar winds spiritual winds the Bible talks about being pushed around by doctrinal winds I believe that those winds are coming from a lot of different places and that you can be grounded on your foundation for me the foundation is Christ you know I urge you to seek that out that foundation will not be moved you can build upon it everything else that can be will be shaken if you build your house upon shifting sands it could be shaken when the rain comes something's gonna happen go out there and build a sandcastle at the beach and what happens when it rains or what happens when the tide rises what happens to that sandcastle but if you build a house on a firm foundation anything that you build on top of that that's gonna be good it's gonna be shaken you have to prove what you believe we're gonna be other ideas and doctrines and theologies but at the end of the day that foundation won't be shaken there's a peace there a peace that passes all understanding man and it's good good stuff if you need prayer if you need somebody to talk to I am available via discord or email or whatever just uh yeah hit me up keep it civil love you guys with that I'm gonna
