Angel Trumpet Sounds: Sky Whales, Methane Burps or Punk Rock Angels?

Buckle up, weirdos! This week, we start with a serene, rainy morning in suburbia that quickly turns into a scene from a sci-fi flick. We’re dissecting the "Angel Trumpet" sounds, those massive, metallic groans from the sky that sound like a dying mammoth or a possessed pipe organ.

We dig into:

• The Modern Mystery: Viral recordings from Terrace, B.C., and Texas that make your guts feel things.
• The Scientific "Maybe": From atmospheric ducting and NASA’s "whistler" radio waves to methane burps and tectonic "sky quakes".
• The History: Exploring the "Barisal Guns" of the 1800s and Japanese legends of "cries from the sea".
• The Biblical Metal: Breaking down the Seven Trumpets of Revelation—think burning mountains and blood-filled oceans.

⚠️ A Whimsical Public Service Announcement

We would like to formally apologize to anyone who actually came here for the acoustics. Somewhere between "apocalyptic warnings" and "scientific resonances," we took a hard, unprompted left turn into the chaotic archives of our own lives.

We are deeply sorry (but also not really) that you had to hear about:

• The high school "manly walk" that looked more like a "creepy predator".
• The trauma of a "stomach brush" in a narrow hallway that led to a life of crime (stealing a single can of pop).
• The literal arms race of competitive birthday bouquets in grade five.

If you’re still listening till the end, you’re just as weird as we are, and we love you!. 🎙️✨

SPEAKER_03 0:00

Now are we to picture like biblically correct angels? Because I could see them making this right.

SPEAKER_06 0:06

So this is this is kind of how the name, like Angel Trumpet Sound, started. So I I feel like I need to say this. Okay.

SPEAKER_01 0:19

Oh God. Okay.

SPEAKER_06 0:20

Um, we are about to get biblical.

SPEAKER_03 0:24

Which I never thought I would say those words.

SPEAKER_06 0:27

Outside of my comfort zone.

SPEAKER_03 0:29

This is why I wore my gay AF shirt. You guessed it, Whimsical.

SPEAKER_06 1:08

Hi, my name is Jaclyn. And I'm Stevie. And today I want to start it a little different. Oh. Okay. Okay. Set the mood for us. Okay. You wake up.

unknown 1:19

Okay.

SPEAKER_07 1:23

Yeah, guys. I'm alive.

SPEAKER_06 1:27

You wake up to a rainy day in your suburban community-based home. My favorite. Not on like where we are right now.

SPEAKER_03 1:36

Suburbia stock.

SPEAKER_06 1:39

You walk to the back door to let your dog out. Okay. Okay? It's oddly quiet.

unknown 1:46

Quiet.

SPEAKER_06 1:46

Serene. So you stand there for a minute with the door open, enjoying the lack of screaming children from across the way, or the soft yet distinguishable low bass of Sean Paul's temperature playing 24-7 from your next door neighbor. You think, wow, this is lovely. When all of a sudden you hear this sound. Uh-huh.

SPEAKER_03 2:19

That's terrifying.

SPEAKER_06 2:20

Uh-huh. And there's wind whipping up all of a sudden. The sound continues. It's coming from everywhere.

SPEAKER_02 2:32

Oh, I hate it. Right? I hate it.

SPEAKER_07 2:36

So what do you do? What do you do, Steve? I mean, I know what you do.

SPEAKER_03 2:41

I sh shit my pants.

SPEAKER_06 2:44

Yes.

SPEAKER_03 2:44

I don't like it.

SPEAKER_06 2:45

Party people.

SPEAKER_03 2:46

Although I kind of do.

SPEAKER_06 2:48

Isn't it hauntingly beautiful?

SPEAKER_03 2:50

Hauntingly beautiful. Yeah. Or it's just a big metal gate opening and closing.

SPEAKER_06 2:55

Yeah. So we are talking about the bizarre angel trumpet sound.

SPEAKER_03 2:59

Angel trumpet sound.

SPEAKER_06 3:01

Which um I did not name. It's just kind of that's what everyone's calling it.

SPEAKER_03 3:05

I had never heard that name before.

SPEAKER_06 3:06

Oh, baby, strap in. So in our I've got another video as well, which we'll we'll play in a second. But like that one is minutes long.

SPEAKER_03 3:16

This is and it's it's that the whole thing.

SPEAKER_06 3:19

The whole time. Okay. That one was specifically shot in Terrace, BC, in um here in Canada. Canada, okay. Okay, in 2013. So this has been happening for a minute. So in our modern age, this all started being recorded and talked about in 2011.

SPEAKER_03 3:39

Okay.

SPEAKER_06 3:39

The best video I've heard is what we just played you.

SPEAKER_03 3:42

Yeah. Um it's it so it's a video or is it just an audio?

SPEAKER_06 3:46

No, it's it's literally, okay, so we'll we always say this, we'll post it. I'll try and turn it for you.

SPEAKER_03 3:53

It's literally just just a like a shot of a suburban neighborhood, yeah.

SPEAKER_06 3:57

Like kind of as I described.

SPEAKER_03 3:59

Yeah.

SPEAKER_06 3:59

And this woman is just standing on her from the room.

SPEAKER_03 4:01

A lot more trees than my suburban neighborhood, though.

SPEAKER_06 4:03

Right? And this is the sound.

SPEAKER_03 4:11

Oh my god. It's like a dying mammoth or something.

SPEAKER_07 4:16

Right.

SPEAKER_06 4:17

So throughout the entire neighborhood. And like, that's not just like, hey, my neighbor's doing something fucking weird.

SPEAKER_01 4:30

Yeah.

SPEAKER_06 4:30

That's like a consuming sound that's coming from everywhere.

SPEAKER_03 4:36

It's very metallic almost.

SPEAKER_06 4:38

It is very metallic. Funny that you say that. Oh now, here's a here's another one. Okay. Okay. This one was shot in Texas seven years ago.

SPEAKER_03 4:48

Okay. Are you ready?

SPEAKER_06 4:51

Okay, ready?

SPEAKER_03 4:52

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 5:02

It's getting louder, too.

SPEAKER_03 5:04

That one's way scarier. Yeah, like deeper and more like almost like ethereal. Same girl. Same girl. Isn't that creepy? That's creepy. Like that one has more of like a harp secore thing song. Yeah.

SPEAKER_02 5:33

Like creepy. Yeah. Oh.

SPEAKER_03 5:39

Yeah. Yeah. That makes me feel things. Right? Like deep in your deep in your in your soul.

SPEAKER_06 5:46

It's like a guttural.

SPEAKER_03 5:47

Yeah. That's cool.

SPEAKER_06 5:50

I don't know what I would do if I woke up to that.

SPEAKER_03 5:52

Oh my god.

SPEAKER_06 5:53

Oh, baby.

SPEAKER_03 5:56

I'm just, yeah.

SPEAKER_06 5:57

Yeah. Yeah.

SPEAKER_03 5:58

It's a weird sound.

SPEAKER_06 6:00

Isn't it? Two very distinct sounds.

SPEAKER_03 6:03

Yes. Both very different.

SPEAKER_06 6:04

And malt. So those happen to be the two videos that, you know, um I have for us now. There are many of them out there. Okay. And many people across these towns were like, what is that?

SPEAKER_03 6:16

And they're all very similar. Interesting. I'm here for it. I want to hear it.

SPEAKER_06 6:25

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

SPEAKER_03 6:25

Yeah. So these sky trumpets phenomenons. Phenomenons? Phenomenon. Phenomenon. Phenom. Um, they are one of the most persistent acoustic mysteries of the modern age. Definitely. Take that in for a second. Yeah. Cool. These sounds are typically described as low frequency metallic groaning or a resonant horn blast that seems to emanate from the sky itself.

SPEAKER_06 6:53

Right.

SPEAKER_03 6:54

Let's try and emulate it now.

SPEAKER_06 6:56

Let's do it.

SPEAKER_03 6:57

You first.

SPEAKER_06 6:57

Okay, okay.

SPEAKER_07 6:58

So I'm gonna go with the the the I feel like that was like a brassy little. Yeah.

SPEAKER_03 7:13

I'm here for that.

SPEAKER_07 7:14

Okay, here we go.

SPEAKER_00 7:16

Um was that I committed to that part.

SPEAKER_07 7:47

Oh God. This is why they come here. Okay.

SPEAKER_03 7:52

Well, I can't see the rest of them.

SPEAKER_07 7:55

How do we do? How do we do that? I think that was pretty good. I think it was really good.

SPEAKER_03 8:00

We hit all the resonance. Well, many viral videos on the subject are confirmed hoaxes. Many videos out there are. Yes. Uh, often dubbed with audio from movies like War of the Worlds. Remember that? I can picture that sound perfectly. Okay, baby. There you go. That was good.

SPEAKER_07 8:21

This whole episode is just gonna be us making ridiculous chaos.

SPEAKER_03 8:26

Yeah. The phenomenon has been documented for centuries, long before digital editing or even airplanes existed. Jack is dying. She's having an aneurysm over here. You're gonna you're gonna debrieze.

SPEAKER_07 8:50

You know. Go through my day-to-day. You know what? I can't wait to do. Okay.

SPEAKER_03 9:03

We've lost her. We've completely lost her.

SPEAKER_07 9:05

Okay. Okay, dial it in.

SPEAKER_03 9:12

Is this where you saw yourself?

SPEAKER_07 9:14

No, I I mean, actually, yeah.

SPEAKER_03 9:16

Yeah, it's distracted.

SPEAKER_06 9:18

Yeah, it's true. All right, here we go. Oh I hope you're all laughing along with us.

SPEAKER_03 9:23

No, they're like these idiots.

SPEAKER_06 9:25

Oh, big time. Okay, here we go. Game phase. So before the era of ver viral viral. Let's go.

SPEAKER_03 9:35

Virile.

SPEAKER_06 9:35

Before the era of viral videos and digital hoaxes, these sounds were in fact recorded by explorers, writers, and local communities who had no sp scientific framework to explain them. Okay. Right? So they were often described not just as trumpets, but as aerial guns or distant artillery. Because, of course, think of it like the time. What could make that sound? Well, that's what I was gonna say.

SPEAKER_03 10:01

Yeah. And a lot of towns would have those air horns in case of emergencies, right? And storms.

SPEAKER_06 10:07

Yes, totally. So let's take it back to the Lewis and Clark expedition in 1805. While near the Great Falls of the Missouri River. Um, Meriwether Lewis wrote in his journal about I'm sorry, his name's Meriwether.

SPEAKER_03 10:22

Merriweather.

SPEAKER_06 10:23

Why did I not know that?

SPEAKER_03 10:24

I didn't know that either. I love it.

SPEAKER_06 10:26

I feel like I did a project on Lewis and weather. Oh no, it was David Thompson.

SPEAKER_03 10:31

Anyway, I'm apparently related to him. Shut up. Did you know that? No. Um I could be I vaguely remember talking about um David Thompson.

SPEAKER_06 10:44

Not a lot of people know who David Thompson is.

SPEAKER_03 10:46

I I think I just know that because I vaguely remember a conversation where it's like, yeah, we're related. I hope I remember that. Mom's dads, do you recall this at all?

SPEAKER_06 10:54

Also, is it David Thompson? Or is it David Thompson? I'm pretty sure he was one of the explorers.

SPEAKER_03 10:58

Because I had a friend slash girl I used to have a crush on. And her last name was Thompson. And I think I remember at the time hearing about David Thompson.

SPEAKER_06 11:09

Well, that is so cool.

SPEAKER_03 11:10

And that's why it kind of sticks in my mind because of that last name.

SPEAKER_06 11:13

Amazing. Uh let's get back to Meriwether.

SPEAKER_03 11:15

Merryweather.

SPEAKER_06 11:16

Um, so she wrote in her journal. He, he's a guy, um, wrote in his journal about a mysterious noise coming from the mountains. Okay. He described it as, and I quote, precisely the discharge of a piece of ordinance of six pounds at the distance of three miles. Ordinances like artillery.

SPEAKER_03 11:33

Hate a discharge.

SPEAKER_06 11:35

Honestly saying. Uh he noted sorry everyone. Oh he noted that the sounds occurred in calm weather and couldn't be explained by any known source.

SPEAKER_03 11:46

Okay. Interesting. Uh we also have the Barasol guns. Okay. Uh so in the 1800s, in the Barasol region of Bengal, or modern day Bangladesh, British offici officials uh and locals reported loud booming sounds coming from the sea. Ooh. They were so frequent and distinct that they were uh that they were documented in scientific journals of the time, often attributed to the seismic activity or atmospheric explosions.

SPEAKER_06 12:18

Love a good atmospheric explosion.

SPEAKER_03 12:20

But if it's coming from the sea, well this could be aliens coming in and out.

SPEAKER_06 12:25

See? Welcome to my world. Woo! Everything's always aliens.

SPEAKER_03 12:28

Always.

SPEAKER_06 12:29

So let's talk about James Fenimore Cooper's The Lake Gun from 1850. So the famous American author wrote a short story based on the real life Seneca guns of New York.

SPEAKER_03 12:40

Okay.

SPEAKER_06 12:40

He described that sound as a deep, hollow, distant, and imposing, noting that the Native American tribes of the region had legends about these sounds long before European settlers arrived. So there is another account from hundreds of years ago of these booming sounds happening. Deep, hollow, distant, imposing. What is causing this? What is causing it? Um, fun little note here. So these have also um, like these kinds of sounds are not just um centered around North America. Um, I found mist poofers. Mistpoofers, which is a term used in Belgium and the Netherlands, translating roughly to fog dissipators, which I guess is a sound that fog can make.

SPEAKER_01 13:25

I guess so.

SPEAKER_06 13:26

Crazy. And then in Japan, there's the huminari, which means cries from the sea.

SPEAKER_03 13:32

Ooh, that's creepy.

SPEAKER_06 13:33

Creepy taste. Yeah.

SPEAKER_03 13:38

It's a cool word too. It is. I like that. Also, miss poofers. I like it. Mr.

SPEAKER_06 13:41

Poofer. I don't know if I'm saying it right, but um the magic scoopers. Why is that in my head?

SPEAKER_03 13:48

Yeah. The talk about random, I love it.

SPEAKER_06 13:51

The magic, yeah, in the middle, literally in the middle. I don't know if it was, I don't know if it came from the I have no idea where it came from, but the magic school has been in my head. It was in my head all day yesterday. Uh octopus in the neighborhood?

SPEAKER_07 14:04

Octopus cruising around the main tree, relaxing, feeling good. Something, something, something. When it's octopus in the neighborhood.

SPEAKER_03 14:13

I panicked for a second.

SPEAKER_07 14:14

I was like, what do you want?

SPEAKER_06 14:18

Something, something, something. You might get baked into a pie in the magic school bus. Yes. But yeah, magic school bus in my brain. Okay. I love it. Real quick, what was your favorite magic school bus episode?

SPEAKER_04 14:29

Ooh.

SPEAKER_03 14:31

I really liked the one where they turn into the bees.

SPEAKER_06 14:35

Oh, cute.

SPEAKER_03 14:37

Because I mean bees.

SPEAKER_06 14:38

Sure. Bees. Everything starts with them.

SPEAKER_03 14:39

Everything starts with them.

SPEAKER_06 14:40

Pollination, crops. Trust me. Save the bees.

SPEAKER_03 14:44

Uh, there was also one episode. Was it the one where it was like lizards and reptiles and they learned about cold-blooded and warm-blooded?

SPEAKER_06 14:54

And they and Liz. And Liz. Liz was like a big thing.

SPEAKER_03 14:57

I loved Liz.

SPEAKER_06 14:57

My Liz was great. My favorite episode, because I know you're gonna ask me.

SPEAKER_03 15:02

Of course I was. What's your favorite episode?

SPEAKER_06 15:04

Um, when they get put into the pinball machine that is like shoots out rainbows through the prism.

SPEAKER_03 15:10

Oh.

SPEAKER_06 15:11

That is my favorite episode by far.

SPEAKER_03 15:12

I love that.

SPEAKER_06 15:13

By far, with all the colors and like the figuring out and using the.

SPEAKER_03 15:16

When did you have that dream about the rainbow prisms and stuff? Oh my goodness. Was it around then?

SPEAKER_06 15:20

Excellent throwback. Um, no, I was way older. Okay. That dream. Which, if you don't know what we're talking about, go back and listen to Nightmares and Dreams episode, um, which came out a couple of weeks ago. Yep. And you will hear something from me.

SPEAKER_03 15:36

Something, something.

SPEAKER_06 15:38

But yeah, that was for sure my my favorite magic score.

SPEAKER_03 15:41

I love that. There's many, though. There's so many good ones.

SPEAKER_06 15:44

Oh my gosh. When she's like working out and they uh she gets hike hiccups, and like, hold your breath, and they have to like mop up the what's its liquid in the muscles.

SPEAKER_03 15:53

Oh yeah.

SPEAKER_06 15:54

What the hell was that calling?

SPEAKER_03 15:55

All coming back to me.

SPEAKER_06 15:56

Anyways, learned a lot.

SPEAKER_03 15:58

Arnold turning orange.

SPEAKER_06 15:59

Oh yeah.

SPEAKER_03 16:00

Carrots, which I thought could be.

SPEAKER_06 16:04

Yeah, really good. Seaweed wrapped, whatever, little fishes or something.

SPEAKER_03 16:08

Also, shout out to Lily Tomlin, Miss Yes.

SPEAKER_06 16:10

Love.

SPEAKER_03 16:11

Love, love Lily Tomlin.

SPEAKER_06 16:13

Um, all right, sorry about that little segue.

SPEAKER_03 16:16

So let's take a look at what the scientists had to say about these noises.

SPEAKER_06 16:20

Love those scientists.

SPEAKER_03 16:21

Love the scientists.

SPEAKER_06 16:22

We know how much we love the scientists here.

SPEAKER_03 16:24

Uh so researchers had proposed several natural mechanisms that could create such massive atmospheric resonances. Resonai?

SPEAKER_05 16:33

Oh, I like it.

SPEAKER_03 16:34

Uh, so we have atmospheric ducting. Sure. Sound from distant sources like thunder, industrial machinery, or even ocean waves can become trapped between layers of the atmosphere with different temperatures. Right. This duct acts like a giant hallway carrying and distorting the sound over hundreds of miles until it reaches an area where it sounds like an eerie local horn.

SPEAKER_06 17:03

I could see it.

SPEAKER_03 17:04

I could kind of see it.

SPEAKER_06 17:06

I could see it.

SPEAKER_03 17:06

That's why, like, if it was, you know, the industrial machinery and stuff, some of it sounds mechanical. It sounded like that. Yeah, yeah.

SPEAKER_06 17:12

Yeah.

unknown 17:13

Yeah.

SPEAKER_03 17:13

Um, then we have the electromagnetic activity. NASA.

SPEAKER_06 17:18

Love NASA.

SPEAKER_03 17:19

Love NASA has noted that Earth naturally emits radio waves at audio frequencies, sometimes called tweaks or whistlers.

SPEAKER_06 17:27

I'm sorry, what'd you just call me?

SPEAKER_03 17:29

Hey. While we usually need antennae, antennae to hear them. Some scientists speculate that during periods of high solar activity, these electromagnetic pulses might interact with the ionosphere in a way that creates audible vibrations. Sexy. Sexy. I sounded very scientific.

SPEAKER_05 17:52

Uh, it's because you are.

SPEAKER_03 17:54

I'm a scientist.

SPEAKER_05 17:55

I didn't write that at all. At all.

SPEAKER_03 17:56

You can just whip that out of nowhere. My brain.

SPEAKER_06 17:59

So good. Um, another thing that makes total sense for sure. Lots of things be happening in space.

SPEAKER_03 18:05

That's true.

SPEAKER_06 18:06

Or we could look at the tectonic strain. So um scientists have kind of dubbed these sounds as sky quakes, which is terrifying. Yeah. But really cool. Um, skyquakes are sometimes linked to the earth's crust shifting.

SPEAKER_01 18:20

Okay.

SPEAKER_06 18:21

Even without a full earthquake happening, pressure on tectonic plates can release acoustic energy that travels through the ground and bursts into the air as loud as a boom or a sustained grinding noise. I could see that too. Right? Because it's rock on rock, grinding around. And it have you ever actually heard um happened to Kyle and I today when we were on the lake. So our lake is still frozen. Ice rubbing together. Yes.

SPEAKER_03 18:46

Yeah.

SPEAKER_06 18:46

And a pressure crack went. And it was the wildest sound. It just went like and it just like sounds like a laser.

SPEAKER_03 18:54

It's I love those sounds.

SPEAKER_06 18:56

It was wild. And then, like, when that ended, like it was like this, and then oh, so cool. And we just looked at each other because we're like, how deep are we if we fall in this? We would have been fine. But uh, yeah, it was uh it's unnerving when you hear it. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

SPEAKER_03 19:12

The earth makes weird noises.

SPEAKER_06 19:14

Yes, it sure does.

SPEAKER_03 19:16

Uh, so we also have good old methane burps.

SPEAKER_06 19:19

Love me and methane burps.

SPEAKER_03 19:21

Love me and methane burp. Uh so in coastal areas or near deep lakes like the Seneca guns in New York, pockets of methane gas trapped in sediment can explode as they rise to the surface, creating massive underwater pops that resonate through the air. Good old methane burps.

SPEAKER_07 19:40

I love it. I love it.

SPEAKER_03 19:42

Uh so the surge in trumpet report since 2011, which I did wonder about. Why 2011? Why did it start then? Sure. Is a bit of a double-edged sword. While more people have cameras to record legitimate anomalies, the trumpets of the apocalypse narrative has led to a lot of international misinformation. Sure. In some cases, unexplained sounds were eventually traced to very mundane sources. For example, some people say that that video from BC, which was the first one you played, right? Right. Uh, it was likely a city worker who unintentionally creating created a massive resonance by grinding a greater blade against a concrete road.

SPEAKER_06 20:24

So now that, and like I could I I could see that.

SPEAKER_03 20:28

Yes.

SPEAKER_06 20:28

So knowing that, now that we've discussed that, let's play this back again. Yes. Okay. Okay. Here we go.

SPEAKER_03 20:34

And imagine a city worker, uh, what was it, grinding a greater blade on a concrete road.

SPEAKER_06 20:41

Yes, here we go. Right? Being dragged along a road.

SPEAKER_03 20:51

Yeah.

SPEAKER_06 20:53

But it's just so loud.

SPEAKER_03 20:55

It's so loud.

SPEAKER_06 20:57

Like that is so loud.

SPEAKER_03 21:00

I just picture metal on metal somehow making that specific.

SPEAKER_06 21:04

Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah. Yeah. I don't remember if that's where it stops. Or if it picks back up again.

SPEAKER_02 21:11

It's just creepy.

SPEAKER_06 21:14

It will start over. Because like you can almost picture that, but what's also wild is like the wind picks up as she's taking this video. Creepy. But it totally could be metal on metal. Like if uh again, does everyone know what a grater is? It's like a giant piece of machinery. Um, typically I see it in my neighborhood when they're trying to get the ice off the road.

SPEAKER_01 21:44

Yes, right.

SPEAKER_06 21:44

It's not it's not a snowplow, it's a a a grater that like comes and like scrapes the frozen ice.

SPEAKER_04 21:50

Yeah.

SPEAKER_06 21:51

This video is in the dead of summer. It's August 29th.

SPEAKER_04 21:54

True. Yeah.

SPEAKER_06 21:54

But who's to say that they weren't like moving earth or moving rock or doing something? Um So there certainly is a case for that's what it is and the atmosphere, especially because it is so windy. Maybe it made that that much louder and went through the entire neighborhood.

SPEAKER_00 22:12

Yeah.

SPEAKER_06 22:13

I don't know. But this sound does not sound like that. Like, what is this?

SPEAKER_04 22:24

Yeah.

SPEAKER_07 22:28

It's getting louder too.

SPEAKER_06 22:31

What is that? I that is not something that's not a mechanical grading. To me, it's like a sing-song-y, like you said, a harpsichord.

SPEAKER_03 22:40

Like a harpsichord or like an organ that's uh a little possessed or something.

SPEAKER_06 22:44

Yeah. Like it's that to me.

SPEAKER_03 22:46

Or that has more of the if it was like one of those air fog horns on the fritz or something. A little tiny bit.

SPEAKER_06 22:53

And it's also not so loud, but it's like, oh like something is wrong with it. Wail. Wail. One more time. In my nightmares. Yeah. Sky's saying, I would go see what that is, but it's probably not a good idea. No kidding, pal.

SPEAKER_03 23:19

Every once in a while, Dan and I will listen to whale noises to fall asleep to. Very similar to that.

SPEAKER_06 23:25

A whale in the sky.

SPEAKER_03 23:33

Sky whales.

SPEAKER_06 23:34

Um, Steve and I were also talking earlier about how orcas are wearing salmons on their head again.

SPEAKER_03 23:40

I had never heard of this. I I feel like Jack's making it up. She's like, you know, the salmon hats.

SPEAKER_06 23:45

Salmon hat.

SPEAKER_03 23:46

The orcas are wearing salmon hats. I was like, what?

SPEAKER_06 23:48

It's a thing. They were like, kill the salmon and then just put them on their heads and like swim around with them on their heads.

SPEAKER_03 23:55

I love it. Yeah. Maybe I'll see that in July. We're going to the BC kayaking with the whales trip. What? Yeah. I'm excited. It's finally happening. It's finally happening.

Uh, and then every morning you go and you kayak along the coast, and it's where the killer whales orca paths are. So you get to like kayak with the with the orcas.

SPEAKER_06 25:09

A dedicated?

SPEAKER_03 25:10

Dedicated listener. Committed.

SPEAKER_06 25:12

I like committed, especially because of the last episode.

SPEAKER_03 25:15

It's true. You should be committed, Doug.

SPEAKER_06 25:17

Um second thing, my good friend Evan, who I met when I was like eight years old in Greensville.

SPEAKER_04 25:24

Okay.

SPEAKER_06 25:25

Um, he works out there as a captain on a boat for whale watching.

SPEAKER_03 25:32

Oh, you've told me this. Yeah. Yeah, that's cool.

SPEAKER_03 25:45

How do we get on that?

SPEAKER_06 25:46

Oh, salmon hats.

SPEAKER_03 25:47

Salmon hats. Sky whales.

SPEAKER_06 25:49

Sky whales.

SPEAKER_03 25:50

SPEAKER_06 25:50

Skywales, guys.

SPEAKER_03 25:51

SPEAKER_03 25:56

I'm a I'm a forest whale.

SPEAKER_06 25:58

Oh, yeah. I'd be a forest whale. I like it. I like it. Um, speaking of things that fly. Yes, okay, maybe.

SPEAKER_03 26:05

Potentially.

SPEAKER_06 26:06

We need to talk about the angels.

SPEAKER_03 26:08

The angels. I mean, it's in the name.

SPEAKER_06 26:10

It's in the name.

SPEAKER_03 26:11

Um now. Are we to picture like biblically correct angels? Because I could see them making this noise. Yes. Right?

SPEAKER_06 26:19

So this is this is kind of how the name, like Angel Trumpet Sounds, started. So I I feel like I need to say this. Okay.

SPEAKER_01 26:31

Oh God. Okay.

SPEAKER_06 26:33

Um, we are about to get biblical.

SPEAKER_03 26:37

Wish I never thought I would say those words.

SPEAKER_06 26:40

Outside of my comfort zone.

SPEAKER_03 26:41

This is why I wore my gay AF shirt because I needed to be very we it like.

SPEAKER_06 26:47

Okay. So I pulled this from several religious sources. I have no idea if it's accurate because, like, oh.

SPEAKER_03 26:55

Are we gonna burn up a little?

SPEAKER_06 26:57

I mean, you might.

SPEAKER_03 26:58

I for sure will.

SPEAKER_06 27:01

I at least, you know. You know this? I know, I know some of this. Remember, I grew up in a family that was Catholic adjacent. Okay. And I am in fact baptized united. Did you? Did I know that?

SPEAKER_03 27:15

I'm not baptized.

SPEAKER_06 27:15

Oh, really? No.

SPEAKER_03 27:16

I don't know. Which is funny because my grandma was actually training to be a nun. Wow. And uh the story goes that she met my grandpa and he swayed her to the dark side. They fell in love and got married.

SPEAKER_06 27:34

I love that story. Yeah. You would not be here if she were a nun.

SPEAKER_03 27:38

I know. I know.

SPEAKER_06 27:40

Well, thank goodness for your grandfather.

SPEAKER_03 27:42

Yeah.

SPEAKER_06 27:42

Definitely ask Rom if he can. Yeah. Thanks, Goomba. I pass by your grave all the time. Um, I actually say like hello.

SPEAKER_03 27:49

SPEAKER_03 27:52

Um I love that.

SPEAKER_06 27:53

Um, we should go visit their 100% when you're up.

SPEAKER_03 27:57

Yeah.

SPEAKER_06 27:57

Um, okay. Why were we talking about that? Because oh, nunneries. Nunneries and religious. And I'm not baptized. Yes, and how I am, and that uh I spent many years in my early life learning about La Bibla.

SPEAKER_03 28:12

La Bibla. Can I ask you a question? Sure. We can cut it if it's uh too much.

SPEAKER_06 28:17

Sure.

SPEAKER_03 28:18

Uh do you It's never going to be too much. Do you no shade to your parents or anything? Yeah. But I am very thankful that I wasn't baptized.

SPEAKER_06 28:27

Okay.

SPEAKER_03 28:28

Do you have any regrets or like hate kind of not hate but hate that you were baptized?

SPEAKER_06 28:33

Do you hate but not hate but hate? No, not at all. No. Um not at all. I'm cool with it. I'm glad that um I learned what I learned. Fair, yeah. And I always say this, I always say this. Love the story. Fair. Love the pomp and circumstance. Love the legends. Yeah. Love the storytelling. Love the writing.

SPEAKER_03 28:56

It's true. Right. Churches.

SPEAKER_06 28:59

Gorgeous. Love churches. Like I I I oddly enough am wearing a every time I see it, I'm like, hold on. Because I love cross. Like not for a religious reason at all. And that's really weird is I told you about my auntie, my great aunt passing away. She gave me this. Oh. That's so wild. Um, it also, just so you know, has our coffin.

SPEAKER_03 29:24

I love it. Right?

SPEAKER_06 29:25

Like I've paired them. I I absolutely love everything about the physical, like the church, yeah, the architecture, the ornate details and decor, if you will.

SPEAKER_03 29:39

Yeah, oh, for sure.

SPEAKER_06 29:40

Um love the story. Yeah. Do not have any side of like I just don't, I just don't align myself with it.

SPEAKER_03 29:54

I just love that now you're practicing witch.

SPEAKER_06 29:58

Yeah. Well, this is it. Like, I'm not gonna lie, when I was going to church and when we were in whether it be like Bible school or Sunday school, or when I got too old, and actually, to be honest, I wasn't too old because we stopped going at that point. But, anyways, sitting in the sermons, they would talk about how like your power can come from anywhere.

SPEAKER_03 30:20

Anywhere, absolutely.

SPEAKER_06 30:21

Because like the United Church is the chillest of them all.

SPEAKER_03 30:25

Yes. If I Which I actually do know this because I, funnily enough, did go to Sunday school, but it's because our friends invited us so that we could be part of the play, the theatrical play that they were putting on. I think there was a part of them that did also want to have us join the cult. Sure.

SPEAKER_06 30:44

I mean, they always do. Um I played an angel in that play.

SPEAKER_03 30:48

Aw.

SPEAKER_06 30:49

Um, but yeah, no, my my church was like very cool, very chill.

SPEAKER_03 30:53

United is the cool one.

SPEAKER_06 30:54

United is the chill one. We had a lady minister at one point. Um it was just relaxed and chill.

SPEAKER_03 31:02

I I love it.

SPEAKER_06 31:03

Yeah, I just yeah.

SPEAKER_03 31:04

And again, I know I talk a bit of shade and stuff. Like, no, nothing against like spiritualism and like believing in things. It's just the organized religion that fucks shit up all the time, is what I have a problem with.

SPEAKER_06 31:18

The people who who um hide behind their religion to and take it to the extremes. Well, that and they utilize it as a weapon is garbage, and they could solve a lot of things. Oh, baby. Yeah, organized.

SPEAKER_03 31:33

I would like to explore the vaults beneath the Vatican, though. Oh, yeah, the shit that's down there.

SPEAKER_06 31:40

Yeah, the story, the lore.

SPEAKER_01 31:42

Yeah.

SPEAKER_06 31:43

That is awesome.

SPEAKER_01 31:44

Girl. Yeah.

SPEAKER_06 31:46

Um, so I hope I answered your question. I kind of did, yeah. Okay. Um, but yeah, cool. Fine by I'm fine with it. Yeah, it's the chillest. Um, my parents were like super relaxed because it was like, I think for them, I can't speak to them, but I get a sense of like they were like, well, if it's true, she's fine. You know what I mean? Like better safe than sorry.

SPEAKER_07 32:06

Yeah.

SPEAKER_06 32:08

Um but yeah, my little church that I did go to for a few years is while still standing, is no longer in operation. But it was like an ancient little, I wonder how old it is. I guess I can't. Where? It's called Rock Chapel Church. Oh, Rock Chapel in Flambrough. Um, yeah.

SPEAKER_03 32:26

The one we did the Sunday school in was the United Church in Linden.

SPEAKER_06 32:29

Oh, yeah. Okay.

SPEAKER_03 32:31

And that's where I went to Scouts. Like that was where everything happened, right?

SPEAKER_06 32:34

There you go. So having said all of that, angels. We got so, so religious.

SPEAKER_03 32:41

We sure did.

SPEAKER_06 32:42

Um, but I also hope that kind of puts things in perspective for you. Like, we don't just there's there's a past.

SPEAKER_03 32:48

There is, yes. We have a past. Thousand percent.

SPEAKER_06 32:50

Um, so yeah, saying all of that, we have no idea what to how to explain any of this. Not a clue. But here we go. We're just gonna dive in.

SPEAKER_01 33:01

Yeah.

SPEAKER_06 33:01

This is pulled directly from religious sites, sources, dare I say, even the Bible itself.

SPEAKER_03 33:08

Side note. Yeah. Have you read the Bible? I have read passages. I've never cracked open a Bible. It's man, it's a wild read. I've heard.

SPEAKER_06 33:17

It's a wild read.

SPEAKER_03 33:18

Some people strictly like religiously only read the Bible.

SPEAKER_06 33:23

Oh, yeah, no. There are, oh, fanatics and no, no. Um, but they're like this is a whole other conversation, but like I feel like a lot of the interpretation of the Bible is exactly that. People's individual interpretation.

SPEAKER_00 33:37

For sure.

SPEAKER_06 33:38

Um, but I'm also like I don't know eight. Anyway, uh, I digress. But you should give it a go. Just like no, I'm good. Crack it on.

SPEAKER_03 33:50

I am a-okay. Right.

SPEAKER_07 33:53

Honestly, yeah, you are.

SPEAKER_06 33:54

Uh okay, here we go. Yep. Seven, I don't even know how to say this correctly, so I'm just gonna I'm just gonna try to. The seven trumpets in Revelation eight to nine and eleven.

SPEAKER_03 34:05

Okay.

SPEAKER_06 34:06

Screw you ten.

SPEAKER_03 34:07

Is that what the rev down below means? Yeah. Revelations. Revelations. Yeah. Okay.

SPEAKER_06 34:11

Okay.

SPEAKER_03 34:12

Um I was like, Rev, I love that drink. I used to.

SPEAKER_00 34:16

Rev it up.

SPEAKER_03 34:17

Rev it up. Okay, sorry. Okay, here we go.

SPEAKER_06 34:19

The seven trumpets in Revelation eight to nine and eleven, but definitely not ten. Nope. Are divine judgments signaling warnings during the end times tribulation initiated after the seventh seal is opened.

SPEAKER_03 34:33

I think I've seen this movie.

SPEAKER_06 34:34

I was just gonna say, did you see that supernatural episode? Yes, okay.

SPEAKER_07 34:38

Right? Yeah, like a lot of what I know is from supernatural.

SPEAKER_03 34:43

I love that.

SPEAKER_06 34:44

Um, okay, it continues. Angels blow seven trumpets, resulting in partial destruction of the earth, sea, water sources, and celestial bodies. Wow. First four. Don't know what that means, followed by intense woes involving demonic forces and vast where uh war yeah vast warfare, last three. Don't know what that means.

SPEAKER_03 35:07

Don't know what that means. This is all from the angel's trumpets that they're blowing.

SPEAKER_06 35:11

So essentially, what this is saying is like when you hear these trumpets, it's the end of times. Okay. It goes to like the biblical like raining frogs, locusts, etc. Apocalypse. It starts with the apocalyptic. It starts with the angel's trumpets. Interesting.

SPEAKER_03 35:32

Uh so we have the seven trumpets of judgment. So the first trumpet from Revelations 8.7. I would I would have said Rev 8.7.

SPEAKER_06 35:43

Sure, that's fine.

SPEAKER_03 35:44

Uh, hail and fire mixed with blood are thrown to the earth, burning one-third of the trees and all green grass.

SPEAKER_06 35:52

Like that's metal.

SPEAKER_03 35:53

That's metal. That's metal, bitch. Uh, the second trumpet from Revelations eight and eight nine. Sure. Eight to eight nine? Sure. A burning mountain is thrown into the sea, turning one-third of it to blood, killing one-third of sea life, and destroying one-third of ships. Not great. Turns one third of the ocean into blood.

SPEAKER_06 36:20

Not great.

SPEAKER_03 36:22

Not great.

SPEAKER_06 36:22

Once again, metal.

SPEAKER_03 36:24

Metal.

SPEAKER_06 36:25

See? Like, this is what I'm telling you. Some of the Bible's like Wild.

SPEAKER_03 36:28

Wild. Um. So we have the third trumpet from Revelations 8, 10, 11. We have a blazing star called Wormwood. Great name.

SPEAKER_06 36:40

Great name.

SPEAKER_03 36:41

Uh, it falls on one third of the rivers and springs, making them bitter and causing many deaths.

SPEAKER_06 36:47

Many deaths.

SPEAKER_03 36:48

Many deaths. Why one why is everything one third?

SPEAKER_06 36:50

So I was gonna say something about that.

SPEAKER_03 36:53

Okay.

SPEAKER_06 36:54

Dare I say holy trinity?

SPEAKER_03 36:55

Oh.

SPEAKER_06 36:56

Total guess. Could be though. Total guess. One third, one third, one third. The son, the holy spirit, in the name of the father of the son, and the holy spirit. Holy spirit. Three. Do they say Holy Spirit or Holy Ghost? I was brought up saying Holy Ghost, and then it got changed to Holy Spirit.

SPEAKER_03 37:13

I mean, uh, is it racist to say ghost?

SPEAKER_06 37:18

You got me. Maybe.

SPEAKER_03 37:20

Maybe.

SPEAKER_06 37:20

Maybe people are like, no, no, I'm not saying that, but I will say spirit. Yeah, I don't know.

SPEAKER_03 37:24

Yeah. I know not.

SPEAKER_06 37:26

Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm.

SPEAKER_03 37:27

Um, then we have the fourth trumpet from Revelations 8, 8, 12. 8 and 12? 8 to 12. Sure. One third of the sun, moon, and stars are struck, causing a third of the day and night to be dark. See? Something, yeah. Uh, we have the fifth trumpet, which is the first woe, Revelations 9, 1 to 12.

SPEAKER_05 37:50

I also don't know what a woe is, but a woe.

SPEAKER_03 37:52

Woe is me. I'm so woe. Um, a star falls from heaven and opens the bottomless pit. Releasing demonic locusts that torment people who do not have the seal of God for five months.

SPEAKER_06 38:05

This is why I'm baptized.

SPEAKER_03 38:07

Is that when you're baptized, is that you receive the seal of God?

SPEAKER_06 38:11

I have no idea. That I don't know. I have no idea what the seal of God is.

SPEAKER_03 38:15

Cool.

SPEAKER_06 38:16

I mean, again, punk rock.

SPEAKER_03 38:17

Punk rock. Cool. Uh, the sixth trumpet, the second woe, Revelations 9, 13 to 21. Uh, four angels bound at the Euphrates River are released, leading a massive army that kills one-third of mankind.

SPEAKER_06 38:32

One third. So now, four angels, I'm pretty sure, is Michael, Gabriel. Oh, who are the other two?

SPEAKER_03 38:41

Sebastian. I don't know.

unknown 38:42

Sebastian.

SPEAKER_06 38:43

Sebastian. No, who are the four archangels? Michael, Gabriel, Raphael. Yes, you're correct. Michelangelo? Isn't it?

SPEAKER_03 38:56

But isn't it all the turtles are named after?

SPEAKER_06 38:59

Well, I thought I thought, is it?

SPEAKER_03 39:01

I I think the turtles are all named after the uh angels. Really? Michelangelo? Michelangelo. Is that not a thing? Or are they the artists? Maybe they're named after artists.

SPEAKER_06 39:12

Okay, wait, hold on. What am I saying? Four archangels.

SPEAKER_03 39:15

Of the apocalypse?

SPEAKER_06 39:17

Names. Okay. People are probably screaming at us in the car right now.

SPEAKER_03 39:21

I I'm sorry.

SPEAKER_06 39:22

Uriel. I knew it. I did know I was in there. So Michael, Gabriel, Raphael, which you're correct, and Uriel. They are the four primary archangels, most commonly recognized across various traditions, including Anglican, some Catholic traditions, etc. etc.

SPEAKER_03 39:38

There you go.

SPEAKER_06 39:41

Oh, do you want to know who what each of them is, you know, described as? Pay me with it. Michael, considered a warrior, protector, and advocate for God's people. Gabriel, recognized as the primary messenger of God, known for delivering messages. Raphael, known as an angel of healing and a guide. What is this all sounding like to you?

unknown 40:00

Witchcraft.

SPEAKER_03 40:01

Yeah. Well, it stems from that. Right. All of it does.

SPEAKER_06 40:04

And Uriel, often associated with wisdom and light, and sometimes described as watching over the four elements of nature. Come on.

SPEAKER_03 40:12

Witchcraft. Paganism.

SPEAKER_06 40:14

So there you go. There's the four uh four angels bound at Euphrates River. And bring it home with a seventh.

SPEAKER_03 40:21

Yeah, so we have the seventh trumpet, which is the third woe, Revelations 11, 15 to 19. Sounded in heaven, proclaiming that the kingdom of the world has become the kingdom of our Lord and of his Christ, and he shall reign forever and ever, signaling the final judgment. Man, and then like that's world is over? Nighttime. World is over or the universe is over?

SPEAKER_06 40:44

I think, well, galaxy universe. So hold on a second, Stephen. Because if you ask certain people in certain religions, there's no space. Right. There's nothing but the earth, baby. Like flat earth? Should we? Do we? Do we? Dare Shall we? Um But so I mean, listen, those are the seven trumpets, and then apparently.

SPEAKER_03 41:10

Are we living on the seal of God? Is the flat earth the seal of God?

SPEAKER_05 41:15

Hold on. Hold on.

SPEAKER_06 41:17

It's all coming together. Um I just want to clarify one thing. We are not flat earthers.

SPEAKER_03 41:24

Speak for yourself. I've been going down some conspiracy theories, and it makes sense. I'm just I'm totally joking. She's having any aneurysm. She's freaking out. I did, I tried to um voice note her once and pretending like I agreed with the flat.

SPEAKER_06 41:38

Oh my god, what was it? Starseed. Was it Starseed?

SPEAKER_03 41:41

Starseed 2. Is that what it was about? No, about pretending to be a flat earther. I was like, it's making sense.

SPEAKER_07 41:47

I just literally my I'm holding my phone. Pretend this is my phone. I'm like.

SPEAKER_03 41:52

And then I halfway through I just started laughing. I was like, I can't, I can't.

SPEAKER_06 41:56

Like, man, you have me.

SPEAKER_03 41:57

But the starseeds, we need to talk about starseeds.

SPEAKER_06 41:59

We'll talk about star seeds, we'll talk about star seeds, and we'll probably talk about flat earthers. But um, as wild and as wacky and as weird and whimsical as we are, I'm here to tell you that the earth is round. It just is.

SPEAKER_03 42:12

Maybe I don't know that ice wall man.

SPEAKER_07 42:18

The ice no.

SPEAKER_03 42:20

We're in Game of Thrones.

SPEAKER_06 42:22

Honestly, I like I would welcome a giant wall or pit where like terrible people go.

SPEAKER_03 42:33

A thousand percent. I mean I'm fine with that.

SPEAKER_06 42:36

I'm totally fine with that.

SPEAKER_03 42:37

Apparently, Atlantis is on the other side of that ice wall.

SPEAKER_06 42:41

Okay.

SPEAKER_03 42:42

Yeah. Great.

SPEAKER_07 42:46

Can't wait to see it.

SPEAKER_03 42:47

I just love going down the conspiracy theory hole.

SPEAKER_06 42:49

No, there are a lot. There are a lot of and same with this. Like this whole trumpet sounding thing. I mean, first of all, the fact that we talked about that it's been happening for like hundreds of years.

SPEAKER_00 42:58

Yeah.

SPEAKER_06 42:59

But because we don't have a recorded audio of what that, because it could have been thunder. Like who knows what it sounded like 200 years ago.

SPEAKER_03 43:07

Imagine. So there was up above there, we were talking about the um um indigenous people. Oh, yes, yes and hearing this and they recorded it. But imagine back then not having like a mechanical or scientific the gods. The gods and that's what I'm saying.

SPEAKER_06 43:25

Yeah, this is all where it comes from, is like that must be God who's angry, who's the seven trumpets are happening, world is over.

SPEAKER_03 43:33

Wild.

SPEAKER_06 43:33

Uh, we're still here. Nothing's happened for now.

SPEAKER_03 43:37

For now, we don't know. Uh, we might be here in some trumpet sound soon.

SPEAKER_06 43:42

We might. Oh my god. Yeah, honestly.

unknown 43:45

I'm fine with it.

SPEAKER_03 43:46

Yeah, we need to just be wiped out. Humans need to leave.

SPEAKER_06 43:49

Um, so I don't know. Uh clearly, I'm seeing this question that I wrote, and I'm not sure why I wrote it, but I can I can understand.

SPEAKER_07 44:00

Trumpets.

SPEAKER_03 44:01

I can see where your mind was.

SPEAKER_07 44:02

You know, but like I have a question. Did you play an instrument in middle school music class?

SPEAKER_02 44:08

What a pivot there.

SPEAKER_07 44:10

And obviously I was thinking trumpets. Huh. And then wrote this question. But I stand by it. Yeah, sure. So did you play a music instrument in a music class in middle school?

SPEAKER_03 44:21

Started with the flute because we were uh bribed with Boston Cream Donuts because no one wanted to play the flute. So our music teacher would bribe us and be like, if you play the flute, I will, I think it was for the first like three or four classes. I will bring you in a Boston Cream.

SPEAKER_06 44:39

I mean, back when donuts were good from Tim Horton. Yeah. Or did you get it from Baker's Dozen? Do you remember? Oh, I don't remember. You let me down.

SPEAKER_03 44:47

I don't remember. Do you remember Baker's Dozen? I do.

SPEAKER_06 44:49

Right in the corner of Five and Six in Watertown?

SPEAKER_03 44:51

Yeah. So good. Well, where was I? It was at Seaton.

SPEAKER_06 44:56

Oh, well then. So it might have been.

SPEAKER_03 44:58

Yeah.

SPEAKER_06 44:59

That could have been Baker's Dozen. And they were like the size of your head. Yeah. They were so good. I would have done that too. I would have played the for a Boston Creek.

SPEAKER_03 45:08

But then it got really hard and I hated it. So I switched to the trumpet. It was me. It was me all along, guys. But thinking that it would be easy because it's three buttons. I'm here to tell you it was not.

SPEAKER_06 45:22

No. But what it's so funny that you say that because everyone wanted to play the trumpet in our school too.

SPEAKER_03 45:26

Because it was three buttons. I'm telling you. Everyone thought it was easy.

SPEAKER_06 45:31

Probably the hardest instrument to play.

SPEAKER_03 45:33

And then you got the little like the ructal mouth because you're like blowing into the whole mouth.

SPEAKER_06 45:40

Of course. Of course, of course, of course. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

SPEAKER_03 45:43

Yeah. Did you play an instrument?

SPEAKER_06 45:45

I did.

SPEAKER_03 45:45

I played badass drums.

SPEAKER_06 45:47

I wish. I really wanted to, but no. Actually, my friend Evan did.

SPEAKER_03 45:51

Is that so funny?

SPEAKER_06 45:52

Um, no, I played. Do you want to take a guess? First thing that comes to mind. First instrument comes to mind.

SPEAKER_03 45:58

Clarinet.

SPEAKER_06 45:58

SPEAKER_07 45:59

I was way too cool for a clarinet.

SPEAKER_03 46:03

Tuba.

SPEAKER_06 46:04

No. Honestly, you should have. That should have been me. Yeah. No, I played the tenor sax. So it's a big saxophone. Yeah, yeah, yeah. That's cool. Yeah. I really, really enjoyed it a lot.

SPEAKER_00 46:17

I love it.

SPEAKER_06 46:18

Everybody in my friend group wanted to play either the trumpet or the alto sax, like the little saxophone.

SPEAKER_01 46:24

Okay.

SPEAKER_06 46:25

I don't know why. I don't know why that was like such a popular. Maybe because like it was cool and hip, and I gotta tell you, all the pretty girls got elected to play the ta the alto saxophone. Huh. So I'm not sure what that was all about.

SPEAKER_03 46:39

Our school, it like everyone wanted to play clarinet. That was the popular one.

SPEAKER_06 46:43

Wow. Who who played clarinet? Laura, my friend Laura played clarinet. Did Whitney?

SPEAKER_03 46:49

I think Doug, my brother, played clarinet.

SPEAKER_06 46:51

Cool. It's a cool instrument.

SPEAKER_03 46:52

He was also in band. Like he, I remember he went on a cruise because he was in band. Amazing. He went the band route. I went the art nerd route. Sure.

SPEAKER_06 47:02

SPEAKER_06 47:15

I mean, I did drama and stuff, but I'd like I I wish I did. I was too punk rock. I'm like, fuck organize things.

SPEAKER_03 47:21

I was too shy and introverted, but I kind of wish I'd gotten out of my shell.

SPEAKER_06 47:24

Sure, sure. Drama did help me with that. There you go. Um, yeah, there was a band for Spencer Valley. I think actually my friends Laura and Whitney, shout out if you're listening. Um, I'm sure you're not, were in that as well. They like traveled around and cool stuff.

SPEAKER_03 47:38

Um as you I gave up the instrument as soon as I could. I didn't go into high school playing an instrument. I I had Grade 8 was the last one where I was like, yeah, no, I hate this.

SPEAKER_06 47:49

I definitely did not play the sacks in high school, but I considered like asking my parents to buy one for me. Oh because I wanted to continue. Could you play?

SPEAKER_03 47:59

Could you read sheet music?

SPEAKER_06 48:00

I could read sheet music. Um I practiced a lot. I remember I like we could take out the instrument, and I was trying to take it out as often as possible because I really wanted to do well with it.

SPEAKER_00 48:10

Nerd.

SPEAKER_06 48:10

Um Big Time Nerd also my crush at the time. Oh, I mean that helps my tenor saxophone. Yeah. So I was like, I want to sit beside him. Oh, I almost said it. I want to sit beside him. He knows who he is.

SPEAKER_03 48:23

My crush was in in high school, it was in band too. And I I actually I saw that he was doing it was an extracurricular fashion show, and you had to learn how to do a fashion show walk, and I saw that he was in it, so I was like trying to like do the fashion show in the hall while I was waiting for my parents, and they saw me doing it. They're like, come on, you can join, like join the fashion show. So that and they they wanted us to do a manly walk.

SPEAKER_00 48:52

Oh, for the men.

SPEAKER_03 48:54

And I could do the woman walk, no problem. But the manly walk, you know where you would kind of like grab your crotch a little and you kind of like step low. And I tried to do that. I looked like I was like grab your crotch and step low. It was a weird manly walk, and I couldn't do it. And they're like, unfortunately, we're gonna have to cut you.

SPEAKER_06 49:11

Shut up because you couldn't walk like I couldn't walk like a man. No, that's not a man. That's like a creepy ass predator. Why? Why were they I got questions?

Uh so it was in the school cafeteria. Okay. We had, you know, we were you would walk in the one door to the um where the um calf ladies would serve you what you wanted. It was a very thin, narrow kind of hallway. So you would walk in the one door, you would have your tray, you would get your food, you would go to the cash, cash out, and then walk out the door. I remember I had my tray and I went to go, I had paid for my um food. Yeah. But I forgot a pop. I really wanted a can of pop. So I grabbed the pop and I went to go back to pay for it. And my crush, Ian, walks by, but he comes in the door that I'm trying to exit, and our stomachs brushed up against each other. Whoa. And I got so flustered that I I turned beat red and I was like, didn't know what to do. I walked out with the can of pop, stole it. Stole it. Because I'm just so in my world, like, oh my god, our stomach's touched. And I didn't go back because I was so nervous that I'm like, I'm gonna be expelled for stealing this can of pop. And I was so worried, and then yeah, nothing happened. And nothing happened.

SPEAKER_06 51:19

Um, it just dawned on me, by the way. I know he was like, You yes, you do. I know him.

SPEAKER_06 51:54

Fair enough.

SPEAKER_03 51:54

That everyone was in love with.

SPEAKER_06 51:56

Fair enough. Yeah.

SPEAKER_03 51:57

I pined after him from afar.

SPEAKER_06 52:00

From afar. Um, I talked to him. We were like casual friends. Was he a nice guy? Yeah, he was a really nice guy. I love that. Yeah, really, really nice guy. Um, yeah, um man. I did have a crush in high school. I feel like we just talked about this, but here we go. Where this I also, okay, my crush from afar.

SPEAKER_03 52:22

Okay.

SPEAKER_06 52:23

He looked like Mark Hoppice from Blink One 82.

SPEAKER_03 52:26

So, like, clearly.

SPEAKER_06 52:28

I feel like I just talked about this. Was this you?

SPEAKER_03 52:30

Maybe.

SPEAKER_06 52:31

Anyway, and do you remember? Do you remember when like those flirty little quizzes came to school?

SPEAKER_03 52:38

From like Cosmopolitan and stuff?

SPEAKER_06 52:40

No, no, no. It was like a company that would come around like Valentine's Day. Yeah, yeah, yeah. And do like the whole like, who's your crush? Who's your match? Fill this out and find out. And it would spit out this list of like people who you could be matched with.

SPEAKER_03 52:53

Yeah. Was he on there?

SPEAKER_06 52:54

I found out his name because of that. And he was on my list. So one of my friends at the time, TK, he I would always point him out and be like, that's him, that's him. Like, oh my gosh. And he's like, Oh yeah, that's Adam. Like, I know him. And I'm like, What? And so I found out his name through TK and like fully, oh my gosh, was obsessed with him from afar. And then when he got on my list, I'm like, shut up, Adam. 100%. I'm like, here's my chance.

SPEAKER_03 53:22

I only had girls on mine. Although they did have like your your guy friends, like who you'd be good friends with. I think there was a guy section.

SPEAKER_06 53:29

I don't remember that, but yeah, I guess that makes sense. Makes that makes sense.

SPEAKER_03 53:33

It's very homophobic list quizzes.

SPEAKER_06 53:35

Big time. I was just consumed of the fact that Adam was on my list. Um, and I remember someone like I don't remember who it was or why, but someone fully outed me to him. And I was like, that girl is obsessed with you, and she doesn't even know she who you are. Um, so I was great, but he found out who I was, and then like we like randomly talked. And I remember this is so embarrassing. Oh my god. I love this, guys. I wasn't like overly cool in high school. I thought I was very cool. So in grade nine, my friends were like, let's go trick-or-treating one last time.

SPEAKER_03 54:12

I I we I support, right?

SPEAKER_06 54:14

Because like we were we were like when we were in high school, kids were still young, you know? So what are you saying?

SPEAKER_03 54:21

I think you should be able to trick-or-treat until you're like a legal adult.

SPEAKER_06 54:25

Yeah, I totally agree. Be a child as long as better that than like you know, drinking and fucking smoking and whatever. Anyways, so here we are, we're like 15 years old. 14, 15, sure, 14 or 15 years old. And I oh man, dressed up like the Blinkwin82 bunny, obviously. Obviously, yeah, and we were going around Dundas and we knock on this door.
