Hey guys, welcome back to the channel. We have another episode of Scientology Spy Wings stories for you today, and we have a surprise here. We have a brand new studio here at Blown for Good Channel and bear with us. We've got a few little things that we're trying to make sure we're all good for, but I do have my lovely wife here today as well.
Speaker 2:Yay.
Speaker 1:And then not only do we have this here and we have Claire here, but we've also got this right here. So we're trying something new, we're trying to see if this works, and hopefully you guys can hear us and hopefully you can see us. This is the very first time we've ever actually gone live with this. And what do you think, babe?
Speaker 2:I like it. I like it. I think it's good. It's nice to be in the same room with you. So many times people have commented about why are you in different rooms? Aren't you in the same house? So you know, they were just two small rooms and so we Mark's been a busy beaver reorganizing things. So there you have it.
Speaker 1:Yeah, we basically moved a bunch of stuff around and we tried to make it as nice as possible, but also so that we could see each other and hear each other, and so hopefully you guys like it. We're still messing with it, we've got to tweak a few little things, but yeah, it's all good If you guys can hear us and you guys can see us. Okay, then I think we're pretty good.
Speaker 2:Yep, bear with us. Like we said, it's never a dull moment over here at the Balloon for Good studio, so we're trying something new. It's nice to be in the same room with you though. Yeah, this is good.
Speaker 1:It's easy and we, we can. Um, we, I have headphones on so I can hear how we both sound and we sound okay to us. So, um, it looks like from the comments, uh, everybody's can see us and hear us and all that good stuff. Um, we do have a lot of junk that we have on the back shelves over here. You can see the, uh, the Davy dolls right here.
Speaker 2:They've now it's not junk.
Speaker 1:Well, you know whatever you want to call it, you know, just nonsense in the back stuff.
Speaker 1:Um and uh, we didn't manage to get a new shirt to go with the background. I, we see, yeah, no, I'm not, I'm wearing all my same stuff. I can't wear a lot of those shirts that I would wear before. That had a real tight pattern. With these cameras they buzz, they make like a it looks like they zebra pattern. So so, yeah, we couldn't do that. But, um, anyway, it's all good. Um, we wanted to do, we did have, but we stuff that people have sent us we put back there and little trotskies, and we've got some, uh, some hail Zinu and some uh, both of those are actually both hail Zinu mugs that we have on the blow for good store. Uh, and then Claire's got a bunch of her books and you know, you can see all her goodies behind her back there All her medals, my medals from my races, and you know, there you have it, yeah, and then I just have all my.
Speaker 1:I do have my Davy dolls with their little rockets. There's a little alien, there's a little alien Lego that goes with Davy doll, and you know, just a bunch of nonsense.
Speaker 1:Oh yeah, and we have the Mike and Leah bobbleheads over there too, If you guys haven't seen those, we do have the special edition bobblehead sets now on the SP shop. All the funds from the SP shop go to supporting the aftermath foundation and we have a Leah bobblehead just by itself and a Mike bobblehead by itself, and then we also have both of those with signed photos from Mike or Leah, and then we have one edition that has both bobbleheads with a signed photo of Mike, one photo that both Mike and Leah are in and they both signed it. So if you guys want to pick up that, you can get that up on the on the sp shop, I think. Alex, I just saw a comment from alex apostate. Alex says those dolls are causing me a lot of alarm and distress. Um, for those who don't know, they, uh, apostate alex brought the davy dolls to a protest that they did in St Hill in England and they they said that they those dolls. Scientology claimed that those dolls were causing them alarm and distress.
Speaker 2:And we should tell them back in the words of Tom Cruise get your manners in right, get your TRS in.
Speaker 1:Yeah, something like that.
Speaker 2:Something like that.
Speaker 1:We normally we were kind of like out of discombobulated a little bit because we've got this new setup, but um yeah, not sure where to look when. And yeah you got. We'll have to get used to it out the flow we should just have a conversation.
Speaker 1:This is actually what we originally intended to do when we were going to create a channel and create a podcast, because we'd always be sitting around with people telling stories and we were sort of like this would be a better setup if we could just have a conversation, and then, with all the equipment that we had, we were using our cameras, and so it wasn't exactly what I had envisioned. This was more what I had envisioned as how we would do it, and then we could just sit here and talk, and then you guys could just be a fly on the wall and seeing it.
Speaker 2:And contributing. There's always great, great contribution from the chat.
Speaker 1:Yeah, but we like being in. It's better if we do like it if we're in the same room, but as well. The other thing that we were doing was when Claire and I would do a live. We have three kids and there's like a zoo worth of animals in this place and they're barking and somebody's at the door, and so she can duck out and go deal with that. Well, now, if she has to do that, I'm just going to go. We'll go whenever we talk to Claire. If she's not here, I'll just show her a chair so that you know that. That's why she's not answering, because her chair is empty. But otherwise we'll just leave it on me or we'll leave it on the, the main shot here. So let's just see. You want to put up a see where everybody's oh wait, what's a? Oh, I should, I should told them the alarm and distress sounds very banky, if you ask me yeah, you know in real life.
Speaker 1:A Scientologist would never in a million years admit that a small little doll is causing them alarm and distress. That would, that would literally be like them admitting that Scientology does nothing at all for them.
Speaker 2:Yeah, I can't. I just can't believe that police officer that approached Alex even said it with a straight face.
Speaker 1:Yeah, I just want to show this so that people don't think that there are Claire and Mark bobbleheads in in and Claire shot there. There is a Mark and Claire bobblehead. Somebody had that made and sent that to us.
Speaker 2:Yes, we're very grateful for that. Thank you to the kind viewer that sent that into us. And there you have it.
Speaker 1:Yeah, I will make you a promise If we sell out of all of the Mike and Leah bobbleheads we sell every single one of them, there's not one left Then maybe we'll do a Claire and Mark one.
Speaker 2:The problem I have with this is yeah, anyway, whatever, We'll get used to it.
Speaker 1:What Say? What you? What's happening?
Speaker 2:What's the problem? I'm just getting old, my eyes are shot.
Speaker 1:Oh yeah, I. The other reason why I really wanted to do this was so that I could just do it without my glasses, and I could just do this, but but I can barely see the the screen without my glasses. Let's see how long we can do this without you. Might. We might end up having comments stay up there for longer, or I might not be able to see anything that's on the screen but we'll do it like this.
Speaker 2:We'll'll see what happens.
Speaker 1:Did you take off your glasses too?
Speaker 2:Yeah, we're both rolling blind here, folks. We're both rolling blind and this is a new-to-me computer so I'm not used to it. I haven't done my settings the way I like it and all that. So test run, folks. Thanks. Like I said, bear with us on this surprise, but I see Office of Special Affairs in the chat. Trevenon is here Great to see you and of course, Clara.
Speaker 1:Put up some of the comments while you're doing that, and then I'll get my other stuff ready.
Speaker 2:Easier said than done.
Speaker 1:Okay, let's see here, just go to start.
Speaker 2:Yeah, I know I'm working on it.
Speaker 1:See.
Speaker 2:Working on it. Okay, here we go oh that's good.
Speaker 1:I took it off of you. I was like she missed her window, guys.
Speaker 2:Christopher from Burbank. We have Mary Kay, london from Albuquerque. Hi, mary Kay, thanks for being here. Like I said, clara from Washington Great to see you here. And Washington State Another person, mb from Washington State. Thank you for joining us. Hale from Chile, chicago. Yeah, we had a whole ton of snow, we did, but now it's warmed back up again, so we're good. We're good.
Speaker 1:Yeah, we did have a bunch of snow here in Colorado and I've been all over actually. That's why we didn't actually do a video last week. I forgot to mention that we didn't do a video last week. I was in. I've been in five states in just about as many weeks, so I've been all over the place, but last week I was in Texas.
Speaker 2:Yep.
Speaker 1:And it was very nice and toasty there and it was probably, I want to say, about 50 degrees colder than it was here in Colorado, so that was nice. Okay, I think we've got 100. Whoa, there's 150 people in here already.
Speaker 2:So that's, good enough.
Speaker 1:We usually wait until there's about 100 people before we get going, so we're good to go.
Speaker 2:Yep.
Speaker 1:This is a Scientology spy wing episode, and one of the things that Scientology does in as part of the spy wing is they have a thing that's called safe pointing. That's what they call it.
Speaker 1:They call it safe pointing. And what Scientology wants to do, um in this, in the safe pointing thing, is they want to get local people in their area that are opinion leaders and they want to um, set up alliances or friendships with those people. So when they find out that Scientology is up to dastardly deeds, they can sort of smooth those things over a little easier. Or if they have little flaps here and there, everybody will be like oh yeah, no, it's fine, we understand, sometimes people have mental breakdowns or whatever. The sure story is that Scientology give, they want to be in good with the police and the mayor and the local politicians and senators and congressmen or whoever council members, whoever's going to mess with their stuff. They want to make sure that those people are already kind of in their pocket and friendly towards them so that they don't get in trouble. And one of the places where they do this a lot is in Los Angeles, in California, and what we're going to show you tonight is how they did this, just with one little event that happens every year in Hollywood. It's called the Hollywood Christmas Parade, and this parade takes place I think it's the Sunday I want to say it's the Sunday after Thanksgiving. I grew up in Hollywood so I've been to many, many of these parades and they usually go along Hollywood Boulevard. Sometimes it also goes to Sunset, but all of the ones that I went to when I was a kid they either started at one end of Hollywood Boulevard and then they would go down to the other end of Hollywood Boulevard, so they'd start somewhere around like Hollywood and Vine and then they'd go west down to and probably end up right around where the man's Chinese theater, grauman's Chinese theater is, all the way like near Hollywood Boulevard, and maybe Orange Street is where that's at. And so I don't know when Scientology started doing this, but because of the way the parade route is, scientology basically offered up to use their facility as the green room for all the celebrities that are in this parade. And the way the parade works is that you have just cars or floats. Sometimes they have floats of a particular TV show or a particular thing that's happening in Hollywood and they'll have a float and then it'll be in the parade, in the, I want to say in the. In the 90s, probably in the in the mid 90s, Scientology started entering a parade, float into the parade, and it was usually it's the way to happiness float and they have their one of their local Scientology celebrities Sofia Vergara or Marisol Nichols or whoever was the Scientology celebrity flavor of that year or the biggest celebrity they had. That would also do the Hollywood Christmas Parade. I don't think Tom Cruise is signing up for the Hollywood Christmas Parade or Kirstie Alley or John Travolta at the time None of those guys would do this but a Marisol Nichols or a Sofia Vergara. They're the level of celebrity that would be famous enough where people would know them and also appear in one of these parades. At some point.
Speaker 1:Scientology figured out that if the parade started at the other end of Hollywood Boulevard near Man's Chinese, if it started there and then would go down the other way, they could basically have a green room at this place called Authors Services, which is the literary agent for L Ron Hubbard, which is manned by all Sea Org members, agent for L Ron Hubbard, which is manned by all Sea Org members, and they basically would have all of the people that are going to be in the parade hang out at Authored Services before the parade and then, because Authored Services has its own parking garage, all the parade floats and cars and everything could queue up in there and then just drive out. People could go from off their services, just walk next door to the garage and then go down, um in the get in the floats of the cars or whatever, and then go out on hollywood boulevard. So, um, does that sound about right? Oh you, oh, we forgot the most important part. Um scientology. Um, scientologists do celebrate Scientology. Scientologists do celebrate Christmas.
Speaker 2:Okay, they give gifts and they receive gifts and they try to get into the retail aspect of Christmas, right, they don't celebrate any religious piece of it because Scientologists don't believe or Hubbard dictated not believing in Jesus Christ or even God. I mean, we've talked about that before. If you ask a Scientologist if they believe in God, every single time you'll get a different answer. Not one of them will give you the same answer. But yes, Hubbard said that religion is a control mechanism used to implant people on the whole track.
Speaker 1:Yeah so, yeah so basically, they believe that aliens programmed these other alien souls to to believe in the man on the cross and all these different things. And then the only reason that that people believe that is because they have body things in them and the body things are making us think that those are real memories or those are real things that we would gravitate towards. That's how Scientology this is on the what's called the operating Thetan levels of Scientology. So when you get to the highest levels of Scientology, hubbard tells you these things. So, so they don't even believe in Christmas at all. No, they take advantage of the fact that other people do.
Speaker 2:Yes, and so they do. The retail part of Christmas, yeah, but that's it.
Speaker 1:Okay. So what I'm going to do is I'm going to bring up this slideshow. Let me see if I can do this. We'll see how this. There we go. Okay, good, we'll see if I can do this without my glasses.
Speaker 2:Okay, I'm putting my glasses on because I'm going to succumb to the need for glasses, okay.
Speaker 1:So this is a map of Hollywood, and you can see I have the Hollywood sign up there at the top and then all of the yellow properties that I listed and this is not every single property that they have, it's just a lot of the ones along Hollywood Boulevard. I probably should have put the Celebrity Center in there too, but you can see there's a big cluster of yellow. That's that big blue building that they call the complex, where all those different organizations is. And then, if you look at the very bottom, that's where Paramount Studios is, the red little tag and then this other red tag up here is I can't see what it is, but it's another, just a landmark and then you can see there's three it says Hollywood sign up there.
Speaker 1:Yeah, that's up at the top. I'm talking about the very middle of the screen, whatever that red dot is.
Speaker 2:Oh, I see. Yeah, that's up at the top.
Speaker 1:I'm talking about the very middle of the screen, whatever that red dot is. Oh, I see. Yeah, I made it too small to see. Anyway, there's three yellow dots the one all the way over to the side where we are down here See us down here. The yellow sign closest to us, that's where Author Services is and it's about a block and a half, two blocks, past Mann's Chinese Theater. Here's a closer map so you can see right in the middle of the screen is Man's Chinese Theater and then, if you just go over, you'll see a red dot and it says Authored Services and that's a building right there where his literary agency, author Services, is located. And then right above that is what's called El Cadiz and that's David Miscavige's personal private apartments that are there and the the author services staff. Some of them, if not all of them, also live in these apartments here.
Speaker 2:Right.
Speaker 1:Um, at one point some of them lived here like only the only the top ones lived there and then the other ones had to live at the Hollywood Inn down the street. Yeah, but you can see a picture of the building there. Actually, I have another picture here. There's a picture so that's what it looks like from Hollywood Boulevard, and they used to actually have like a little gallery in there that you could go into. When I looked it up on Google, it says that that's permanently closed, so probably too many people were trolling them and so they didn't do a lot of stuff as that. That high school let me see if I can go back. I think that's like Hollywood High. I'll tell you a fun story. As long as somebody said, somebody said what high school is that?
Speaker 2:I'm sorry. Yeah, somebody Meta Jennifer confirmed Hollywood High yeah.
Speaker 1:Hollywood High. Thank you, meta. Jennifer, one time my dad and I went to go see. We went to go see Beverly Hills Cop at the Man's Chinese Theater when it came out and my dad parked right along the street right next to that sports field at Hollywood High. And when we came we walked down the street and went to our car. The car was gone. There was just an empty parking spot where my dad and my dad had a rental truck. He used to be a roofer and he had a rental truck that he would use during the week for roofing. And when we got to the spot there was just an empty parking spot there.
Speaker 2:I would have loved to see the look on Bernie's face for that.
Speaker 1:He was just like well, it's, the truck got stolen. How was that Anyway? So that's Hollywood High. There's authored services. Okay, so now this is the inside of authored services. Sorry.
Speaker 2:I had to sniffle.
Speaker 1:I don't have a way to mute myself now. We've got to figure that out. Okay, so this is the inside of author services and this is like this little area that they have. It's just got all these L Ron Hubbard books and L Ron Hubbard wrote mostly science fiction his entire career and so a lot of the books that are in here are science fiction books Mission Earth, battlefield Earth.
Speaker 1:He also did a lot of little short stories that they'd have authors sort of expand upon, or maybe Hubbard wrote like a treatment or just a synopsis of something, and then authored services would hire or have a contest to find the best writers that are writing science fiction, and then those guys, if they won this contest, it was called the Writers of the Future Contest and that is the main thing that authored services does.
Speaker 1:They hold this contest every year and they do this to befriend and to safe point people in the in Hollywood and the publishing industry and the media and all this good stuff. So ASI is set up as a schmooze location, like it's set up to wine and dine writers and celebrities and politicians, and that is what it's set up as, and politicians and that is what it's set up as, and a lot of people don't know this that authored services is a C-Org organization. But because they're a for-profit organization, all of the staff, all of the staff, the C-Org members that work there, that are employed, are minimum they have to get minimum wage, yeah, which, as a sea org member is, you're basically rolling in it.
Speaker 1:you're rich, you're getting minimum wage, yeah because your birthing and your food and everything is taken care of by the sea org yeah so the way they do it with these authored services folks is they get a full here, let's go back. We'll go back to this. While we're we're telling this stuff, what they get is they get. They get minimum wage, but they only count their minimum wages If they were working 40 hours a week.
Speaker 1:So, even though they're working, 120 hours a week, they get minimum wage for 40 hours. But even that, I don't know what minimum wage in California is right now. But whatever that is, if you're 40 times that it's several hundred dollars a week.
Speaker 2:Right.
Speaker 1:And so they make those people pay for their birthing and their food out of their pay to offset the fact that they're getting more pay than every other Sea Org member.
Speaker 2:Yeah.
Speaker 1:But they also don't wear-.
Speaker 2:The marked up cost, not the actual cost of the food.
Speaker 1:I don't know how they do that. It's different. I know they've tried it a few different ways Because even when I was at the Association for Better Living in Hollywood, when I worked there, they made us pay for our own food, but we could just go out and eat. We didn't have to eat at the building where they served the food. We could just say I'm not paying for food. If I want to eat, I'm just going to go next door to Sandy Burger and get some chicken and beef teriyaki combo, which is amazing.
Speaker 2:Your favorite.
Speaker 1:But anyway. So. And then you have to pay for your own clothes and you have to buy what's called Uniform K or what in the Sea Org is known as civvies.
Speaker 2:Civilian, civilian clothing. Civvies short for civilian.
Speaker 1:Because we were in a fake Navy with Davey, captain Space. Davey, fake Navy, davey back there, anyway. Oh, I also do have a behind the scenes cam. I forgot I didn't have that. You can see all the messy wires and everything.
Speaker 2:Oh my gosh. Yeah, that's the. This is the pretty version, the BTS scene.
Speaker 1:Anyway, so Not to be confused with BTs. Yeah, totally different thing, yeah, Anyway, so they get paid more than everybody else and they also do their makeup and they get their hair did and they get their nails did and they do all that stuff because they're interfacing with people in the public pretty much full time.
Speaker 2:Right.
Speaker 1:Very rarely are they besides. When they're with themselves are they mixing with other Sea Org members, like in Los Angeles or maybe Celebrity Center. They interface with a little bit.
Speaker 2:Yeah, not so much, but because they're their own organization. So interfacing with any staff in lower organizations is considered fraternizing, even for author services staff.
Speaker 1:But if in their professional capacity like if there's a celebrity coming over, somebody from celebrity center might come with that celebrity, if they're a scientologist celebrity, or even if they're trying to get those people in, somebody from celebrity center might be interfacing yeah, and author services has always been at that location, right, yeah, yeah, because it used to be like all white marble in the lobby.
Speaker 1:Yeah, it still might be. This is we were seeing all the upstairs, so I don't have any pictures of the lobby in any of this. Okay, so let's go back Now that you understand. Oh, and authored services in terms of the hierarchy of Scientology, author services is higher than any other organizations besides RTC, which is Religious Technology Center, which David Miscavige is the head of, and CST, the Church of Spiritual Technology. So CST, asi and RTC are all kind of at the same level. Same level and the way it was supposed to be set up was that if RTC was being naughty, cst and ASI could kick out RTC. Or if CSI was being naughty, rtc or CST or any of these could kind of auto-police each other.
Speaker 2:But in reality it's a facade, a complete facade of checks and balances.
Speaker 1:Well, yeah, because now David Miscavige is in charge of everything. He's the boss of RTC, he's the boss of ASI and he's the boss of CST. So they can't kick him out because he's the boss of everything.
Speaker 2:Yeah.
Speaker 1:OK, so let's go back to the picture here. Ok, so, that's ASI, and this is what so for this Hollywood Christmas parade thing that they're going to do, and they might be doing this in a week or two- Right.
Speaker 1:There might be a Hollywood Christmas parade and a whole bunch of celebrities and politicians might be going to ASI for the pre-event or the post-event or whatever. They could be doing this every year. I don't know if this is a one-off or if this is just a regular thing that they're doing, but this is what it looks like inside. Oh, I forgot to tell you the spy files. A lot of people think the spy files that I have, that I do these videos on that they're just documents. The spy files have photos. The spy files have anything that somebody who leaves Scientology and has some photos or has some documents and they send those to me. Those are added to the spy files. The spy files are only something that I have. Some people have documents, some people have photos. Some people have all kinds of different things. Well, I all kinds of different things. Well, I have all of those things in one place and I call them the spy files.
Speaker 2:Anything that Scientology wouldn't want us to have. We call those the spy files, right like the flyers that they handed out at our places of work and all that kind of nonsense.
Speaker 1:Exactly so in this room that I showed you, with all this stuff they have. They have. This is just a place where they have some food, set up for the Christmas parade, a contest, or the Hollywood Walk of Fame, or the city of Los Angeles proclaiming it L Ron Hubbard Authored Services Day, or whatever it is. So this is all prominent. When they schmooze with these politicians and these celebrities, they want to show off all the goodies that they got from doing that.
Speaker 2:Yep.
Speaker 1:Okay, so let's go right into the behind the scenes photos of this event. Now, this was a Christmas parade. That happened in 2018, and they brought in a sushi restaurant to to cater this thing, and Scientology loves hiring some sushi restaurants. I don't know what it is. David Miscavige has a real big thing on this too he loves to bring in sushi.
Speaker 2:Yeah, and he's the source of that. Yeah, probably, yeah, absolutely.
Speaker 1:When they had a birthday party for Tom Cruise on their cruise ship, they flew in Tom Cruise's favorite sushi restaurant and they brought that to a ship in the Caribbean.
Speaker 2:Right.
Speaker 1:Like all the chefs and all their stuff and their knives and whatever they needed.
Speaker 2:He basically just airlifted the entire restaurant to the free ones for Tom Cruise's birthday, yeah.
Speaker 1:So doing it to a place in Hollywood for a little Christmas parade?
Speaker 2:That's not, that was no biggie, it's not a stretch. Okay, so here's the suit. You's not. That was no biggie, it's not a stretch.
Speaker 1:Okay, so here's the suit you can see. Here's the sushi chefs there. There's four of these guys. They're coming in, they're ready to get some their sushi on and they got all their supplies and they got the dry ice and they got all that. And then this woman with the scarf, she is an author services Sea Org member and we'll point those out as we see them, and also forgive me if I don't recognize some of these celebrities or some of these people that are in some of these photos, because I don't watch TV so I don't know any of these people. But I do know that this person up on the screen is Buzz Aldrin and that is Gunhild. Her name used to be Gunhild Jacobs because she used to be married to a gentleman by the name of Larry Jacobs who went to the RPF and I think they got divorced. Okay, so that's Buzz Aldrin.
Speaker 2:And Catherine said that she's now the EDSI. Gunnhild is yes, oh, because the Because Barbara Ruiz, who was the EDSI, has vanished.
Speaker 1:She went to the hole yeah, she didn't vanish. She went to the hole yeah, but then she did vanish from the hole.
Speaker 2:Right, that's my point.
Speaker 1:Yeah.
Speaker 2:And somehow her husband at the time, Javier Ruiz. He hasn't vanished, he's remarried and has kids and is very much still a Kool-Aid drinker, right, Well, yeah he's married to Brittany, who's a Scientology Facebook police.
Speaker 1:If you're friends with Brittany and you talk smack about Scientology, she'll tell everybody.
Speaker 2:So do you think that OSA pays the Facebook police or it's just considered a volunteer role? I think the latter.
Speaker 1:I think they do it because they want to talk to their family, and if they don't, they'll get declared because, they were both SEERD members and they both know stuff they're not supposed to know.
Speaker 1:Yep, okay, back to the photos. Okay, so that's Gunnhild. You're going to see a lot of people that you're not expecting to see in these photos, people it's going to maybe blow some of your minds when you see some of the celebrities, some of the politicians, some of the local law enforcement that are at this little shindig is going to be kind of amazing. Okay, so there's Eric Estrada. Okay, some of you might know him as Officer Pontrello from Chips, the hit TV show of the 1980s, and that is John Goodwin in the background. He used to work at Bridge Publications. He is also a Sea Org member, a very long-time Sea Org member, probably going on 30 years now.
Speaker 2:I think more than that.
Speaker 1:Okay, more than that?
Speaker 2:Yeah, so he was previously married to Kathleen Goodwin. Now he's married to Phil Jones' daughter, emily, that's right. Who we both knew and worked with, and for Phil and Willie. We long for the day that they get reunited.
Speaker 1:Yeah, and just so you guys know, I have sent all of the photos that had Emily in them. I've already sent these to these to fill.
Speaker 2:Yeah.
Speaker 1:As soon as I got them and saw that Emily was in them, I sent them to fill.
Speaker 2:Yeah, phil commented John Goodwin, his son-in-law, yes.
Speaker 1:Yep, and that guy that Eric Estrada is hugging is Montel Williams. So Montel Williams, Eric Estrada, just hanging Montel Williams. So Montel Williams, Eric Estrada, just hanging out with the Scientology guys before the parade. Eric Estrada has been. A lot of the people that are in these parades have been past grand marshals of the parade. I want to say Eric Estrada has been a grand marshal. Montel Williams, Buzz Aldrin, All of these people that you're seeing are very kind of connected with the parade and once a year they're part of it.
Speaker 2:But either way, I loved someone's comment. By the way, they're like what's with the upside down Christmas tree behind them? From the other shot we showed at the beginning, it does absolutely look like an upside down Christmas tree.
Speaker 1:I think it might be a giant, uh wreath.
Speaker 2:Yeah.
Speaker 1:Um, okay, here's a bunch of other people. If that picture wasn't buzz, I'm sorry. Somebody says it's not buzz. Somebody buzz was at. He does a lot of stuff with author services and he's part of a lot of things I do. So if I thought that was Buzz, I'm sorry. There are pictures of Buzz with the ASI guys. Now this is John Goodwin. I don't know who that person is next to John Goodwin. I don't know who the tall woman next to her is, but then that's Emily Jones, eric Estrada I think the woman in the red jacket is some sort of new newscaster and then Montel Williams and then some other I think he's a TV actor or something like that and then again some actresses with Gunn-Heald Again there's. I only took some selects out of these photos.
Speaker 1:There's hundreds and hundreds of these photos. Um, and if you guys recognize, um, if you guys recognize some of these celebrities or who they are, then you've listed in the comments. Buzz Aldrin is not a Scientologist. They just use him a lot of for the science fiction uh writers of the contest and they schmooze with him every chance they get. This is I think it's Jason Doering. It's one of the Doering brothers. He was on a TV show, veronica Mars. I'm pretty sure that's him. I went to school with those guys when we were kids. And that's Miss California from 2018. That's John Goodwin there, uh, uh, phil Jones's son-in-law. Um, oh yeah, lapd.
Speaker 1:Some of you may recognize either two of these, uh gentlemen that are, uh, part of the LAPD, the Los Angeles Police Department, and these two officers did an event and I might show that too. I have a lot of really good video and audio of a Christmas stories show that Scientology did, and if you guys want to see that, let me know in the comments. If we get a lot of requests for that, maybe we'll do a video about that. Just another safe pointing video. But these guys so I don't remember the officer's names, but the, the bald, uh officer he is sort of the main LAPD point guy. If something goes down with, uh, with Scientology in Hollywood, and Scientology needs LAPDs and Scientology needs LAPDs, oh, this guy's going to show up on scene and he's at a lot of Scientology's events. Yeah, it's Officer Tallman, something like that. I don't remember the name. But if, oh, yeah, there you go, right there, tallman, of course, and White, there you go. So somebody knows these guys but they're very hooked in and really for the LAPD, for the Scientology people, for the celebrities, this is a schmooze fest. Everybody knows we're going to get our pictures taken with each other and if you want to meet the Senator or the Congress guy, then you got to go to this thing, because that's where you're going to meet them, because Scientology hook up all the good stuff that you want to go do.
Speaker 1:Here's another picture. Another LAPD officer's joined and then I'm pretty sure that bald gentleman see, I have to put my glasses on for this one. I'm pretty sure that bald gentleman is one of the Sea Org members from actually, I don't know without the hair. Some of these people have aged a lot too. But you've got LAPD. I suspect somebody else that's connected in there. Then you've got another LAPD officer, jason Doering, another LAPD officer.
Speaker 1:And now this guy on the far edge here, the tallest gentleman here with the suit on, he is the head of Scientology security in Los Angeles and he interfaces with the private investigators. He interfaces with LAPD. He's a Sea Org member that is in Scientology security department and he may have left the Sea Org. Catherine. Oh yeah, catherine says not anymore. I think he left the SOg. Catherine, oh yeah, catherine says not anymore. I think he left the. So, okay, well, there you go. There are a lot of pictures of him and there's actually there is a video from, I want to say, a year ago, where he is on Hollywood Boulevard in one of those videos. So I don't know if he's still in Sea Org or not. Okay, then we've got this guy. Sorry, I don't know if he's still in Sea Org or not. Okay, then we've got this guy. Sorry, I don't know who he is.
Speaker 1:He's got some sort of got scarf lady and I don't know if Catherine knows who that is, but she is an ASI Sea Org member. But I don't know who the jumpsuit guy is. I want to say he's either. I don't know. That doesn't look like a proper military outfit. So he might. I don't know what he is, um, but um, he might've been in some show or he might be a retired military, um, but there you go.
Speaker 1:There's Emily again. Now she's talking with a pirate. Not sure what that's all about, but it looks like there's a camera being set up here, a broadcast camera and some lighting, so, and you can see there, they're getting it all set. So I think they're going to do an interview with the pirate guy here. There you go. So there's a happy holidays and they're doing some sort of video with Captain Timo Jack Sparrow there. And then we've got some other military guys with John Goodwin. So we've got Fake Navy John with some real military people there. Actual, this was back in 2018. I see in the comments that somebody's asking when this was. So there. Actual, this was back in 2018. I see in the comments that somebody's asking when this was. So there you go. Now we've got a whole new set of LAPD.
Speaker 2:Yeah, phil Jones commented. By the way, the pirate character is from one of Hubbard's fiction books. Yeah, yep.
Speaker 1:Probably I can believe that I don't know if these, these might not even be LAPD, these might be sheriffs or they might be something else, cause these are all. They look all different to me. That or they could be LAPD, just a different district, but that's LAPD, with Emily Jones and her husband John Goodwin, both Sea Org members, at author services. There you and you can tell they're. You know, this is a very playful environment with Scientology and the LAPD, because, look, they're putting her up on a chair because she was so tiny and he's so tall. Ha ha ha. And then there you go, you can see him again there.
Speaker 2:I don't know.
Speaker 1:I can't read the badge, but I mean, you don't normally a police officer doesn't normally put his hat on somebody they're taking pictures with, so you can tell this is a very everybody's all between friends here Again, I don't know who this gentleman is, but he's with Emily Jones and Gunnhild. Then there's this guy he looks like he might be a Hollywood guy with that tie and the Hollywood face there with Gunhild, gunhild man, she's really getting up there, okay. And then here we go again, some of these military folks with ASI.
Speaker 2:Somebody said they're, I think, air Force or Navy. Yeah, there you, navy.
Speaker 1:Yep, there you go.
Speaker 2:Yep.
Speaker 1:And then here's some other people, some LAPD, yucking it up with the ASI people and some of these other guys I don't know who these guys are. And then Jerry Mathers the beaver that was the beef. No, that's Jerry Mathers the beaver, that was the beef. No, that's Jerry Mathers. He's the beaver from. Leave it the beaver.
Speaker 2:Oh man that's rough. That's sad.
Speaker 1:Okay, oh yeah, forgot to tell you guys. So we got this guy. Who's this guy. Does anybody know who that is? First, uh, you, you prize to the first commenter who gets uh, this guy. Who's this guy. Does anybody know who that is? First, uh, you prize to the first commenter who gets uh, this guy.
Speaker 2:Right, that is adam schiff okay and he is oh, there you go. Colonel brock said adam schiff yeah, so you have to give him a prize now.
Speaker 1:You committed to that okay, we'll think about something there. Um he is, is he is. It's a congressman. He's the congressman for california oh, there you go yeah and he kind of is yucking it up with scientology. They're safe pointing away over here yep um, that's emily jones and that's um. I don't remember her name, but she's also an authored service.
Speaker 2:Author services maybe k knows, he's a senator for California. Sorry, there you go. Corruption in photos, folks.
Speaker 1:Yeah, it's wild, okay, and we'll keep going. Yeah, if you're not from America, you want? I mean, trust me, I'm from America and I don't notice. I knew who this person is because I've seen him on the news or I've seen him in videos. I've seen him mentioned. So he's going to be a senator. He was in Congress, wasn't he A congressman? And now he's being nominated. Somebody get this straight, but I'm pretty sure he used to be a politician for California and now he's going to be the senator for California.
Speaker 2:Witness commented well, I am going to write a strongly worded letter. I shift a disappointment.
Speaker 1:Yeah.
Speaker 2:Good idea, thank you.
Speaker 1:Yeah, wally, willie, or Willie says hilarious the way they mix up different military branch uniforms yeah.
Speaker 2:Yeah.
Speaker 1:Because we were in a fake Navy so we don't know what the real ones look like. Okay, let's keep going here. There's a bunch of pictures with him. There's a much other guy, so this is a bunch of the women John Goodwin and these other ASI, searc members. And then I want to say this guy's old school Hollywood, the guy in the red jacket I don't know who the gal in the sweater is, but yeah, you're right, I think that was Leave it to Beaver. A bunch of more people here. Don't know them. If you know some of these people, you might recognize some of the TV people that are coming up, and these are just where these people came. Yeah, so it says yes, I knew it. Yes, schiff is an outgoing congressman, just elected senator. So this is what Scientology do, guys.
Speaker 2:Right.
Speaker 1:They invite their congressmen. They know they're going to be a senator a senator.
Speaker 2:They, they, scientology. Are that scientology have elite uh skills, right well, another example of that is during our lawsuit 2009 to 2012. The law firm that religious technology center was using um was I can't remember the name of the actual law firm but Proskauer Rose. Proskauer Rose, and Mark Marmoreau was the attorney who did my deposition. And then what? A year later, he's a Supreme Court judge.
Speaker 1:Yeah.
Speaker 2:Just another example of how they weasel in and gain control very intentionally.
Speaker 1:Yeah, he became a California Supreme Court judge after being the lead lawyer for Religious Technology Center in a case against them. Yep, okay, back to the pictures. So there's Adam Schiff, there's a bunch of other authored services, seaworld members, and then you've got here's LAPD with Schiff. These are now we're getting into more of the Hollywood guys. I'm sorry that I don't know who either two. I literally I don't watch network TV. I haven't watched in years. So anyway, I'm not sure who these guys are. I think they're from a TV show. We're going to show the name of it when we see their parade car later. Again, I think these are some of the same actresses from that TV show, with the ASIC members on either side Gunnhild and.
Speaker 1:Emily and, wow, jesus, gunnhild. Yeah, okay, and then this is some more pictures with Gunnhild.
Speaker 2:And there's another. When we were there, Gunnhild had like super short hair.
Speaker 1:Yeah, yeah, she had a little bob. I think she was doing a rock in the bob. Yeah, catherine said did I say leave it to beaver? No, I said leave it to beaver, not leave it the beaver. There was a TV show called Leave it to Beaver on when I was a child yeah, I might be dating myself a little bit. It was probably in syndication by the time I was watching it. Probably in syndication by the time I was watching it. Um, here's, um again. Here's uh tallman with the, uh, the myth, santa claus at the scientology event that doesn't exist.
Speaker 2:Clara said not santa, yeah, exactly not smell like beef and cheese okay here.
Speaker 1:Here's. A good point here is that's ernie hudson from ghostbusters, with um two other actors, and I think one of these actors or actresses was in one of those other shots. But now we're in the parking garage where somebody says Mark, the show was on in the 1950s. Yeah, so it was on syndication by the time I was watching it in the 70s.
Speaker 2:At least you had a TV. I didn't even get a TV.
Speaker 1:Yes, spanglish. Sp. Spanglish says Tallman has played the electric guitar at Celebrity Center for their events.
Speaker 2:Right, yeah, I have those videos in full 4K definition. Baby, yeah, that would actually make a good project to like take every photo that we ever find of these types of events and personally contact those people, like have bullet points of are you aware of Scientology's abuses of this and this and this and this and see how they respond.
Speaker 1:Yeah, okay, um, oh, we have some more pictures back here. I might've skipped ahead and that picture was in the wrong order, so that's a. A. This kid is also an actor, for sure. I've seen him in something or I don't remember. But if you guys are, uh, if you guys watch tv, you might know who these people are. Um, okay, so, um, colonel brock says I know that guy okay, good yeah, david archuleta.
Speaker 1:Is that right? Is he a singer? Anyway, I know this woman. She an actress she was in. Is she the one that was in Cape Fear? She's the one that Robert De Niro assaults in Cape Fear in the movie Cape Fear. She's an actress. I'm almost positive that's her.
Speaker 2:Yeah, somebody said David Archuleta.
Speaker 1:David Archuleta.
Speaker 2:From American Idol.
Speaker 1:There you go, yep, okay.
Speaker 2:See Idol.
Speaker 1:There you go. Yep, okay, see, I knew he was something. Yeah, I remember that.
Speaker 2:Back in the days when I watched American Idol.
Speaker 1:Okay. Anyway, these guys are all yucking it up at the Scientology authored services.
Speaker 1:Right With these Sea Org members. Yeah, okay, then you've got he's doing some other stuff. Then you've got he's doing some other stuff. He could have been on one of the floats that year. They just Scientology just has this way that they basically you're going to be, oh, you're going to the parade, oh, there's going to be like a little shindig at this place right before where the green room is going to be, they don't know. But you look at some of these pictures, we'll see there's all the author services guys with santa, which is this is the most ironic picture of all, because they're none of them believe in santa and obviously santa knows he's not santa.
Speaker 2:Um anyway, santa doesn't believe, he doesn't believe in santa.
Speaker 1:He's just putting on an outfit. He just had the beard for it, right, um, anyway, um. So there's all the scientology author services seward members with not Santa, and then here's some more celebrities with their kids matching outfits. We got newscaster woman there. I'm not sure who the two women in that picture are, I'm sorry Again, I I I apologize for not knowing any.
Speaker 1:Who have all these TV and actresses and actors? There's these guys, okay, good, so now we're in the garage of author services and you can see that was the cast of BET's the Family Business, and I guess Ernie Hudson and these other folks are all in that show. And so this is where you can see they've got all these cars that they're going to operate as parade floats. Let me see if there's a better picture you can. Oh, so there's the entrance right there to author services, that all that wood thing in the parking garage, so that you just go right, that's right inside where we just were, where all the, where all the sushi and decorations were, and then you just walk right out and you get in your float or you get in your car and then they all drive down Hollywood Boulevard and you can see, this is the second of those two cars. And then there's a Ford Mustang all tricked out back there. It's got some other show in it and yeah so.
Speaker 2:Wild, so Hmm.
Speaker 1:Wild.
Speaker 2:So much craziness.
Speaker 1:A lot of people wouldn't believe that Scientology would have their hooks in all these people. Right, and, and that's how, that's how Scientology does this. They literally, they have these shindigs, they do these events and they get all these people in. And you know, know, because I eat some of scientology sushi, I guess I gotta be nice to them. I did get a picture with the senator or the congressman or the mayor or yeah, and let's not forget that.
Speaker 2:Then they scientology then uses those photos to show at their events and, you know, to show the ohologists. Oh, look at us, we're with this guy and this guy and the LAPD loves us. And here's us giving money to the LAPD and they accept it because they're corrupt. I mean, they don't say that part out loud, of course.
Speaker 1:Yeah, they do. That is a good point. They show a ton of these photos at Scientology only events.
Speaker 2:Yep.
Speaker 1:And then they show that, oh, this Senator's in bed with us and this guy and we do this, and so they make it. They do make it seem like from this one little event.
Speaker 2:Yep.
Speaker 1:They might show 20 photos between videos, or they might have some video footage of this. They might, and they'll mix that in. So then they go. Oh yeah, that's the. That's the Congress guy for California and he's taking pictures with the authored services.
Speaker 2:Yeah, and, and you remind me too, of course. Yes, it's called safe pointing, but it's also referred to as PR area control, so that when they public relations area control, so that when anything, when anything goes sideways within Scientology and they need well-connected people to help them save face, they have those people in their back pocket you can.
Speaker 1:This is they could probably do four or five of these events a year and this would make, when they sprinkle all those in with all the videos they do, it makes it look like this is just happening all year long. Right? People just love Scientology.
Speaker 2:Everybody's lining up to by Scientology. Not that it was a happy accident that they just had a nice building well positioned to use as a green room to lure everybody in their front doors and snap away footage and photos and everything else while those hapless souls are in the building. Yeah, I mean, of course some of them know full well what Scientology is, I would imagine, but not all of them do.
Speaker 1:Yeah, you got to move in a little bit. You're creeping out of the creeping out of the video there. Let's go back to her main shot.
Speaker 2:Okay, okay, yeah.
Speaker 1:It's much better, baby. I didn't want you to get away.
Speaker 2:She's trying to escape.
Speaker 1:Escape far away. She's trying to escape on me. Escape, okay, um, do we? Wasn't that your job, mark? Um, my job was to shoot films. Sometimes we shot these videos, I will admit, and the one time that I shot a video at asi was we did a, and maybe somebody can look this up. You might even see me in this video, if anybody's got a copy of the Battlefield Earth DVD. I know that's a rare item for somebody to have, but if you have a copy of the Battlefield Earth DVD, in the behind the scenes video there is a makeup test that we shot with John Travolta and I may or may not be in that video. If anybody's got that video, I'd love to see that footage and you can either confirm with a screenshot or you can take a picture with your phone. Keep it wide side design.
Speaker 2:It wasn't at the same time when you got your Battlefield Earth book signed by John Travolta as Terl, which is the bad guy in the book.
Speaker 1:Yeah, I might have to get that guys. I do have a signed copy of Battlefield Earth from John Travolta that he signed as Terl.
Speaker 2:I know where that is you know where it is.
Speaker 1:Okay, we're going to get that, we're going to show that guys.
Speaker 2:It's in a bin with my check that I never cashed from Ken Moxon.
Speaker 1:Oh, we should laminate that. Yeah, we're going to, I should put the Battlefield Earth one up here too, yeah good idea.
Speaker 2:Don't read the book, don't recommend it.
Speaker 1:And don't buy that DVD. If somebody out there has already got the DVD, just pull it out. Let's see what she gets doing. What's? Doing there, but please don't go out and buy it. I don't even know if you could buy of battlefield earth and even more, do not read mission earth mark. You have a slight buzz on your mic. Claire's is clean, just for the info. Okay, now here's the sneaky thing. We're both plugged into the same thing, so I don't know how you would isolate me.
Speaker 2:We've established that we've established that you just have an extra bt in the in the house we'll figure that out. Thank you, guys it's over in your side of the room. My side of the room is clean, yeah.
Speaker 1:Somebody says blind wave here. I'll put it up here Blind wave channel just reacted to battlefield. There's their bad movie reaction. It was hilarious. We'll have to check that out, tracy.
Speaker 2:Yeah, we will Thanks. That was the worst movie, even worse than the book.
Speaker 1:Yeah, we had to go see that movie three times. Sea Org members in the international headquarters of Scientology. We were paid. Well, we weren't paid. The tickets were bought for us.
Speaker 2:And we were bused to the movie theater.
Speaker 1:Yeah.
Speaker 2:I went. Didn't we go to the Temecula movie theater? Wasn't that where we went? Hemet, no, not for that one.
Speaker 1:We all went in buses yeah, to hemet in order to travel somewhere.
Speaker 2:When you're 500 people, I know I thought we went to a bigger movie theater so that would have bigger impact on the um how the movie performed. That's how I remember it I don't remember.
Speaker 1:You know, rtc might not have gone to the same place that gold went.
Speaker 2:True, that is true.
Speaker 1:I was in gold, she was in RTC. They know that I went to shitty theater. She went to nice theater.
Speaker 2:Rub it in. Why don't you? I like how that worked.
Speaker 1:That was pretty good, I like the way that works back and forth Anyway.
Speaker 2:I slept through the movies. You cheated and went and saw. What was it?
Speaker 1:Gladiator instead I went to Gladiator and that movie was so much better yeah.
Speaker 2:I was jealous. See you make it out like I had a better deal. I had to watch the movie three times.
Speaker 1:Somebody said I wonder if my local library oh sorry, no show I wonder if my local library has a copy of Battlefield Earth on DVD. That would be so funny if there was a rush on the Battlefield Earth DVDs for no good reason. Besides, we were asking to see if there's some behind the scenes makeup tests. So what we did was we did makeup tests for John Travolta and when he was getting made up for Turrell, the makeup artist was doing tests and we were just shooting it to see what people liked and didn't like. And should we make his codpiece bigger or way bigger or just extremely huge? I think those were the three selections, anyway.
Speaker 2:Lovely.
Speaker 1:Okay, are we going to do? Do we need to do a giveaway or something? We've we've?
Speaker 2:we've been gone and people have been sending in um things and let me do some just like out of practice, and we will be gone. Well, we have to mention this first to go to the C?
Speaker 1:org it's the T H E S E E O R Gorg to submit your photos to enter to win a special edition Leah bobblehead.
Speaker 2:Yes.
Speaker 1:We've seen a ton of photos that people have been taking and sending in, so you got to send those photos in if you want to win one.
Speaker 2:And this contest is not run by or organized by us. But the point is to highlight the small failing orgs in Scientology. And what better way to do that than take photos with Leah Bobble or Mike Bobble or the fake Navy Davey? You know, if it causes alarm and distress, I mean it's a plush toy. So you know, come on now, folks, folks I don't want to.
Speaker 1:I want to grab my guy I heard.
Speaker 2:I heard that, uh, one of the social media accounts of the people who organized that contest was taken down by signed ology oh, look at him, he's really getting freaky here.
Speaker 1:Take it easy, there, davy. Davy was uh. Um, what did you say? What took, who took what down?
Speaker 2:one of the social media sites that was put up to uh by the seer contest was taken but down by scientology. That's how much they don't want their small and failing orgs highlighted I think they complained about it, look at him taking a little dump in my coffee. Good thing you have a lid on that.
Speaker 1:Yeah, good thing I have a lid, but sorry for distressing everybody with this.
Speaker 2:Oh no, okay, there you go. A bunch of people are doing hashtag BFG, so back to the topic at hand are we doing a giveaway.
Speaker 1:Yeah, I got a capture. Let me set that up here. I'll put it on you.
Speaker 2:You can read some comments and tell stories, and I'll get this.
Speaker 1:You're going to put up some comments, or I have to do that too. I got it. You got to do that, cause I got to do the display.
Speaker 2:I got to do that Okay.
Speaker 1:I got to figure out where that is, that there's a thing for this.
Speaker 2:Okay, here I'll just do some questions. Becky, big brother fan, do author services staff have to get extra sex checks due to their contact with the outside world? That is a great question and the answer to that is yes, they do. Scientology refers to that as external influences. They absolutely regularly get security checks to see if they've been getting kickbacks of any kind or things of that nature. I had to do that several times with Barbara Ruiz when she was the executive director of author services at the orders of Shelley Miscavige. So yes, that's the answer to that question of Shelley Miscavige. So, yes, that's the answer to that question. And ex-witness, sorry again, we're struggling here.
Speaker 1:We're not struggling.
Speaker 2:I'm struggling.
Speaker 1:I'm not struggling at all, do?
Speaker 2:these people know what Scientology is about, as we talked about. Some of them do, some of them don't. The ones that do, shame on them for luring people in. I've always considered author services and Celebrity Center for that matter, to have the added function of being a glossy showcase to pull in celebrities, people of influence, opinion leaders, as Hubbard calls them right.
Speaker 1:Yes.
Speaker 2:Yeah, so that's my answer to that question for you. Um, yeah, so don't forget to get your hashtag bfg in the comments. We're gonna run our giveaway. Fun little doodle tool thingy my bobby here.
Speaker 1:Yeah I just have to, I have to allow this computer to do that. I'm doing it. Oh, there you go.
Speaker 2:That's always fun.
Speaker 1:Yeah.
Speaker 2:Anyway, there you go. That's what else. I didn't have any other marked comments. I guess I'll go back over here and see if I can find any other questions. If you have questions, get them in the comments. Comment. An executive at Author Services, marcus, once told me they didn't care about all the external people coming in, but that their sole purpose sorry, phil, I lost your comment there One second that the sole purpose is safe, pointing and expanding Scientology. Comment from Phil Jones. Thanks for being here, phil, and yes, I completely agree with that. Scientology has perfected the art. In fact, you're in. Scientology has been doing this. What for now? Going on seven decades of figuring out how to leverage control and influence to cover up what they don't want people to know? So, yeah, yeah, all right.
Speaker 1:Okay, we're going to just select it manually, because I can't share the screen that we're doing when we have to do the. It's just a silly thing. Let me see if I open it. Actually, let me see if I do this. Hold on, this might work, guys. This might work. You keep reading.
Speaker 2:Thanks on the glasses. I hate wearing glasses but this is all dark. I have to change the setting on this. So any who yes, Is therea Mark and Claire bobble like the one on the shelf. So that was a one of a kind gift from a very kind viewer who sent that into us. But, as Mark said, uh, we'll see.

Speaker 2:So so just a reminder get over to the sp shopcom and have your selection. We have sp bracelets, fake navy davy, uh leah bobbleheads, mike bobbleheads, all kinds of fun stuff, and the proceeds benefit the aftermath foundation. There you go, all righty, let's see. Oh, love Food Kitchen says at Apostate Alex. The irony is that that toy is the least alarming and distressing thing in East Grinstead. The whole place is alarming. Peter Andre's old coffee shop was deeply distressing. He I didn't read. I'm sorry I missed the last part of that Question. Onelove 51,000.
