Is This How It Ends?
From Drafts to Mickey Clouds: A Wild Ride Through Politics, Mars, Conspiracies, and Taylor Swift
Ever wonder if global politics has a secret playbook? In this episode, we unravel the latest legislative madness, like automatic Selective Service registration for young men in the US, and the ominous signs of global conflict with Russia, North Korea, and China. Oh, and don’t miss our hot take on declining birth rates and military enlistment. National defense, anyone?
For some comic relief, we recount a hilarious Mickey-shaped cloud sighting at Disney – coincidence or Disney magic at work?
Then, we dive into the ultimate survival game: a Mars lottery to escape a killer asteroid. Discover why gene-editing genius Jennifer Doudna, survival expert Bear Grylls, and herbalist Rosemary Gladstar are our top picks for Team Mars. Plus, meet Dr. Kevin Washington, our go-to for keeping future Martians mentally sane.
And if you think Taylor Swift’s concerts are spellbinding, wait till you hear our theories on her supernatural fan control, music industry magic, and the baffling “post-concert amnesia.” We then take a detour into wild conspiracy theories – from the CIA's Acoustic Kitty to the elusive planet Nibiru and those pesky chemtrails.
Whether you're a Swiftie or a conspiracy skeptic, this episode is packed with laughs, insights, and maybe a few shocking truths.
Enjoy the ride!

Welcome back. We've been gone for a few weeks. It's summer, so we out in these streets, but now we're here. Whether it's a hot mom, summer hot girl, summer hot, I just want to be in my house summer Hot mom summer.
Speaker 1:When did this come out? I had a neighbor who coined it a few years ago, so I've been using it. But for those of you anxiously waiting, welcome back to the newest episode of. Is this how it Ends? For those joining us for the first time, you're in for a treat. So this show is where we cover stories that makes us question where the hell is this world headed right Wars, aliens, robots, sexy red conspiracies, and we pepper in some regular mundane-ish you know. So now that you're here, I'm going to kick it over to Niles as we dive into just some regular-ish.
Speaker 2:All right, hey, y'all Normal-ish. So on June 15th the US House of Representatives passed a bill that proposes to amend the Military Selective Service Act to include automatic registration for the Selective Service System for men when they turn 18. And this is for men 18 to 20.
Speaker 1:Just men right Men.
Speaker 2:Just men, I'm going to get that Okay. This bill aims to streamline the registration process by automatically registering men through information already provided to various government agencies. To various government agencies. This bill does not currently include provisions for the registration of women, maintaining the status quo where only men are required to register with the Selective Service System. It's a good day to be old and a woman, yes. Girl. Millennials, yeah, y'all. So get ready to be drafted. What do you think? So I mean?
Speaker 1:I mean we're already in a war by proxy right, you know, with Russia and Ukraine looking over across the pond. Right UK is considering a national service law where it's not the same as a draft or conscription. But, you know, according to the announcement made by the prime minister, um 18 year olds will be given a choice between full-time placement of the armed services or volunteering in their community. I think this is like baby steps where you eventually be like yeah, community service is actually national armed forces, so your choice is military or military just which branch you want to choose.
Speaker 1:So if you've been looking at the news, you have Taiwan and China. Right, taiwan is like we're our own territory. China's like yeah, no, you're not, you're part of us. And the US? They maintain a policy of they call it strategic ambiguity. They support Taiwan through arms sales and they politically back them without officially recognizing them as a separate country. And then just recently, you have military exercises and maneuvers by China near Taiwan. The US has once again reiterated its support for Taiwan's self-defense capabilities and it's conducting its own military exercises in the region.
Speaker 2:So get ready y'all.
Speaker 1:It's happening. It's happening, and you know. And there's so much more. There's Russia and North Korea. I don't think any two nations other than China hate the US more than them. And now they have an alliance, right Like Vladimir Putin, and North Korea leader Kim Jong-un signed a significant new partnership agreement and it's described by both leaders as the strongest treaty between their two nations. So pledges of mutual defense, treaty between their two nations, so pledges of mutual defense. And you know, and then you have, and then you have I don't know if you saw recently. So Russia launched a satellite named Cosmos 2576, which US officials believe to be a counter space weapon. So it's placed in the same orbit as a US reconnaissance satellite. So Russia is pretty much like saying you move the US.
Speaker 2:Get prepared. And, as of late, the enrollment in the armed services in the US has been down, and so even bring it back to birth rates. What's happening in terms of like, hey, we need to build this army, and y'all are not having the kids to build the army, right right, because they know what's coming down the pipeline, and so, yeah, they pulled the trigger on this, y'all.
Speaker 1:So yeah, I think we're making moves, like you know. We're making our alliances. I believe we're at war, right, it's just we're not really seeing it out, right, but we're cause you don't want people to panic, right? Um, but I'd like to see what things look like in a couple of years.
Speaker 2:Yeah, Well, that's it for normal, Not so normal. Well, that's it for normal, not so normal-ish.
Speaker 1:All that is a little scary. I might make it worse, I don't know. So this is the segment that I think, every time we have this show, I rebrand it or just add more stuff to it. Right, it's billion takeover, robot revolution, or, yes, we can tech-wise, but should we? And you know know, just generally anything that makes me personally feel like we are living in a 1980s sci-fi movie, which, yeah, we are. Two really cool stories that I want to share. Right, the sky is getting really interesting. Um, side note, I was in disney a couple, well, week I was about to say a couple weeks ago. Last week, we saw a Disney Mickey-shaped cloud in the sky. I kid you not, my son saw it and pointed it out to us and I was like, oh my God, that's pretty cool. And then my husband looked it up and apparently it is a thing I don't know if you guys can see it.
Speaker 2:Mickey-shaped cloud.
Speaker 1:Oh yeah, I see it. Mickey shaped cloud oh yeah, I see it, I see it. But apparently it's a thing where people are seeing Mickey shaped clouds and I don't know. Disney has this thing where it's like spot the mouth, so I don't know, this is weird.
Speaker 2:I have on a Mickey Mouse shirt.
Speaker 1:Oh my God, you know that.
Speaker 2:Mickey Mouse shirt right here. Oh, my goodness, I do not believe in coincidences, you know that. Okay, look at that Female shirt right here.
Speaker 1:Oh, my goodness.
Speaker 2:That's very, that's very weird. That is very weird. I know you're going to talk about this Continue.
Speaker 1:All right. So the sky is getting interesting. A few weeks ago I know we were talking about it where so states not really in the path of the northern lights got a chance to see it. I got to see it. It was really faint but the sky was red. It was pretty cool, like others who were a bit north of me were able to see it really well as well.
Speaker 1:And in a few months, between now and September, a new star like object will appear in the night sky. This happens when a star suddenly gets much brighter, usually because of an explosion on its surface, which is called ANOVA. You'll be able to see without a telescope. So, just if you're into that kind of stuff, you could follow the news and see when it's going to happen exactly. And it's not actually a new star, it's an existing star that becomes much brighter for a while, making it look like a new star has appeared. It will disappear. I think it happens every 80 years. I think it's really cool. I'm going to follow it and see when it happens so that I can see it. Now the next one, the next sky-related story or I guess space you should say is Ast, which is officially known as 99942 Apophis. It's named after the ancient Egyptian god of chaos and destruction, oh scary at all so discovered June 19th 2004, by astronomers at the Kitt Peak National Observatory in Arizona.
Speaker 1:It's huge it's the size of three and a half football fields, arizona. It's huge, it's the size of three and a half football fields. It's classified as a near-Earth object because its orbit brings it really close to Earth. When it was first discovered, there was a concern that it might impact Earth, but that's been. After further observations they ruled that out. So there's no significant risk to this asteroid impacting Earth. But while it poses no risk, they're going to continue to monitor it and see you know potential collision risk in subsequent years, like 2036 and beyond. So we're safe. Maybe I don't know, but why would they name this the God of Chaos and Destruction, right?
Speaker 1:I was like oh, don't put that out there. This is how conspiracies start, right, and just change the date, so it's going to fly by on Friday, april 13th. And then I thought about the movie Don't Look Up. Right, you know how, like Hollywood, sometimes their movies are a little bit too much on the nose. Yes, right, yes, sometimes I feel like we're being trolled. Right, I think we're being trolled. This is the ultimate troll, for sure. Too many coincidences, right, and let's, if this was so, they're saying it's not going to hit us, which I'll believe, just for my own, like you know, peace of mind I have to wake up every day.
Speaker 1:Yeah, exactly Right. But if it was going to, would you think the government, would you think they would admit that?
Speaker 2:No.
Speaker 1:Yeah, yeah. Could you imagine if they told people in five more years it's this asteroid is going to hit? It's not an extinction event if it did, but millions would die. So it would be. It would either be utter chaos or people are just going to go about their business. Right, bill's got to be paid.
Speaker 2:No, look at COVID. They're going to tell us nothing.
Speaker 1:I know Right, we're going to like use up all the toilet paper Like what do you get?
Speaker 2:The gastro going to use up all the toilet paper Like what are you doing?
Speaker 1:We're going to hit the gas with coming to get all the toilet paper the toilet paper. You never know what's going to feed us and just do everything. But so yeah. So I'm sorry y'all. I do have a conspiratorial mind and I see shadows where I shouldn't, but when there are just too many coincidences I just question things. But that's it. But even more reason why we need that Mars lottery. We need to make our way off Earth.
Speaker 2:Nice segue. So, yes, mars is ghetto, yes, it is. Mars is not the Earth is ghetto. You mean, earth is ghetto, earth is ghetto. Yes, it is, mars is not. The Earth is ghetto. You mean, earth is ghetto, earth is ghetto. Yes, it is Right, girl. And so, because it is, we got to make contingency plans and so we're going to Mars, but not everyone can come with us, nope. And so every episode we have three people that we suggest, three people each, that we suggest to go to Mars and we conducted, like the New York housing lottery, because it's real, out here, all right.
Speaker 1:So today I actually came prepared. I have my three people.
Speaker 1:All right All right, so let's start. The first person is Jennifer Dubna. I can't say her last name, so I do apologize, jennifer. She is a biochemist, a pioneering biochemist, known for her work in CRISPR gene editing technology. So this revolutionary tech allows for precise, directed changes to the DNA. It's opened up possibilities for new treatments for genetic disorders, cancer and other diseases, and she was awarded the Nobel Prize in Chemistry, shared with Emmanuel Chabertier, for the development of CRISPR-9, which is super cool.
Speaker 1:Right, there's a lot of conspiracy around CRISPR, some ethical stuff around gene editing, but if we are living in a foreign planet, we may need some additional help. We may need some gene editing, and I'm not opposed to that for survival, so I think we might need her. The next person you might need so Bear Grylls, so his real name is Michael Grylls. His sister gave him the nickname Bear when he was a week old Also some good old foreshadowing in our 1980s simulation. Anywho, if you've ever watched man vs Wild, then you know who he is. If you've ever watched man vs Wilde, then you know who he is, and he also has like an interactive you vs Wilde show that sometimes it's a little ridiculous Like he does. I'm just like what.
Speaker 2:It's interesting, am I always versing yourself? Just how about me versus me? Just you know, versing yourself.
Speaker 1:It's yeah, anyhow it's so. He's. He's undertaken numerous endurance feats, including climbing up Mount Everest, paramotoring over the Himalayas and crossing the North Atlantic in an open, rigid, inflatable boat. That just sounds foolish to me. But I mean we need people who just have that survival skills, who could just like I don't know. They just have that instinct and can just survive in the wild, because we don't know what this land is going to be like or what this new world is going to be like. You know, maybe he could fight off whatever animals there are. And the next person is Rosemary Gladstar. She is a herbalist and has had a profound impact on the field of herbal medicine, helping to revive and sustain traditional herbal knowledge, while also promoting the conservation of medicinal plants. So modern medicine is great, but I think we also need people who could, you know, use whatever is given, like use the earth and what's provided to create treatments, because we may not have access to our tools. So those are my three people.
Speaker 2:You hear my guns blazing, so this is going to be hard. Oh no, we on the board, we're going to have to have some decisions. All right, sorry, all my light went out. I don't know what happened to it, so we just keep on rolling here, right.
Speaker 2:All right, so the first person I have is Dr Kevin Washington. He's a prominent figure in the field of psychology and counseling, particularly known for his advocacy and leadership within the African-American community. He has dedicated his career to addressing mental health disparities, promoting psychological well-being and advocating for culturally competent therapy practices. Look, we don't know what Mars is going to be like. We're scared. We're trying to figure things out. We do need therapy. I think we might.
Speaker 1:We need therapy now. We need it now. Show ourselves.
Speaker 2:So we're definitely going to need it on Mars. So that's my first person. My second person is Dr Marcia McNutt, a geophysicist and former president of the National Academy of Sciences in the United States. She has made significant contributions to marine geophysics and understanding the structure and dynamics of the Earth's crust. We need a geologist because we gotta figure out the terrain, what's going on our environment. She's needed. Shout out to Marcia and Big Nut All right, I like her last name, All right. And the last person is Dr Siddhartha Mukherjee. I'm sure I chopped that up. He's an oncologist and researcher and Pulitzer Prize winning author Known for his work in cancer biology and treatment. He has authorized several influential books on cancer and genetics. We don't want no cancer on Mars.
Speaker 1:I mean we don't, but you know, our current environment is what's causing the rise in cancer. Who's to say that?
Speaker 2:yes, all right. So so now we got to make the decisions, because we can only take three each round. So you have some good people.
Speaker 1:There are girls we could leave behind. I know he's a survivalist, but he's also a little ridiculous. So yes, so yes.
Speaker 2:Now you did have your first person was really good. The biochemist.
Speaker 1:Yeah, like I think we're going to need some. We might need some augmentations, right, like you know, better eyesight.
Speaker 2:I don't know, but I think she did cancer research too right Does she do cancer research?
Speaker 1:too. She does not do cancer research. Well, she does, yes. So her she doesn't, but I think so. Her research has opened up possibilities for new treatments, Okay, For genetic disorders and cancer and other diseases. So she's. I think she could take the place of your cancer person. Okay, so we're going to go with what's her name again jennifer dudna okay, jennifer dudna you know, somewhere we like creating a list, so that we're not doing that I thought about that.
Speaker 2:We're gonna have to make sure to keep a list, we're not?
Speaker 1:we'll do that.
Speaker 2:We're gonna take her we're leaving out bear grills. Okay, we leave him. We have to bring the therapist we have to bring the therapist.
Speaker 1:So we have Jennifer, we have the therapist Kevin Washington and the geophysicist so we don't want the herbalists because we don't know what's growing out.
Speaker 2:We don't know yet. We already have some farmers. I think we have some farming people. I think we have some farming people.
Speaker 1:Okay, rosemary, put on the wait list. She's on the wait list, okay. One thing I did want us to introduce is a band for life. Yes, paris Thomas, I think you should be on the banned for life list In any bad decision. I don't care if you're Republican Democrat, I don't care Black white, you're all banned forever.
Speaker 2:Him and Diddy. Well, yeah, Diddy Banned for life. He's not coming to Mars. J Lo is also banned. She is banned, but I have a soft spot for life. J-lo is also banned. She is banned, but I have a soft spot for her.
Speaker 1:She has visitor rights.
Speaker 2:maybe I have a love-hate relationship with J-Lo. It's mostly hate, but maybe it's that I love to hate her. I don't know, but can J-Lo visit? She can get a visitor's pass, yeah.
Speaker 1:But I, yeah, I think we should. We should make sure there are some people who just you know what. We have no reason Like JLo her.
Speaker 2:I think the reason we hate her is so superficial she she can, definitely she can, she can visit, but so next time, when we have our next round, there'll definitely be a band for life. Yes, yes, all right, all right y'all.
Speaker 2:We have our people, and that's the Mars housing lottery. All right, so now on to the main topic. Now, I hate to be a little bit disappointing, but I'm also inspired. Hear me out, all right. So to recap right, I had a theory about Taylor Swift's music being tuned to 432 hertz right, the healing frequency, 132 hertz right, the healing frequency. But I said this because she's going to lower everyone's defenses under the guise of healing, so that she can implement world domination. I reached a dead end with this theory. All right Now. Like we talked about last time, right?
Speaker 2:Generally, mainstream music, including Taylor Swift, is typically recorded and released at the standard tuning of 440 hertz, unless specified otherwise by the artist or the producer. So you know, if you want to listen to music tuned to that, you can there's go to YouTube or there's certain software technology that you can do that. But the original, the original tuning of her music, is the usual 444 Hertz, right. And so I said, okay, let me try this out. So I listened to some of her, and so I said, okay, let me try this out. So I listened to some of her songs on YouTube tuned to 432 hertz, and then compared them to the 440 hertz, and it all sounded the same to me. Me give up, right. I know something's going on here and maybe I'm looking at it from the wrong angle. I just don't get it right. Taylor releases a new album and suddenly you find yourself singing shake it off, shake it off in the shower.
Speaker 1:Not me.
Speaker 2:Jordan work at a table. I said while you're working, while you're working, while you're sleeping, it's like her lyrics invade your brain cells, replacing your inner monologue with her catchy choruses. Now her music videos. They're not just entertainment, they cover their covert training session. Now, you ever notice how perfectly synchronized her fans are at the concerts? Remember that, because this is where I'm going to go. It's not just, they're not just vibing out, she is sending her telepathic message to the masses while they're there and they're moving in time together.
Speaker 2:I am here for it. She's a puppet master. She must be stopped. I can't lie, she does have a knack for creating catchy melodies and hooks, right. But in my theory I thought that was the true mechanism to hijack our brain wiring and turn us into SwiftyBots. But that's not it, right I continue.
Speaker 1:You say SwiftyBots, swiftybots.
Speaker 2:Hashtag SwiftyBots yes, and in my continued research there were talks of Taylor being a witch. Right, I can buy that, but I think most celebrities are witches and they dabble in sorcery and all the other stuff. So I believe that Right. And before when I was looking, I was thinking, ok, it's in the song structure, it's in the melody, it's like it's in the song structure, it's in the melody, it's in the music, but it's not in the music. Right, it's something else, right?
Speaker 2:So again in my research, I saw something about Taylor Swift post-concert amnesia. I'm sorry what. Taylor Swift post-concert amnesia? Taylor Swift post-concert amnesia. And I was like, okay, I'm curious. So did you realize that she has the? She's the highest tour, like she's the highest tour, highest selling tour what's the number I have here? I think it's like 1.3 billion, $1.4 billion, and she sells records like physical records, yes, higher than Elton John, higher than the Eagles had a tour. How? Yeah?
Speaker 2:Now this is where I started to look. Now I'm interested in the concerts, y'all, and so in looking into this concert experiences, this is where the message or the mind control is happening to weaken our minds so that whoever can come in can do what they're going to do. So I found a podcast called Taylor Swift's Mind Control Concerts, and so now y'all, I'm on another wave. So I stopped there. So I don't have a real theory yet, because what I originally theorized got debunked. Right, she's tuned like everyone else, right, 444 hertz. There's no special tuning. That's happening, and even if the way her melodies are constructed or whatever, it's pretty plain and basic Again. Hence what's going on here. Right, but it's the concert, the concert experience that draws people in, that weakens people's defenses. They get this post-amnesiaia, post-concert amnesia, and then who knows what they're?
Speaker 1:bringing to get post-concert amnesia, so they forget that they attended her concert I think it's not.
Speaker 2:They forget they attend her concert. It's just like kind of everything after the concert doesn't matter as much, they're just so high and into like what's going on, the whole experience, that kind of like what happens after, just like life is just null and dull and boring. I don't know. I've seen her in a leotard on the stage but there's no dancing, there's no choreography, there's no boom cat, there's nothing. Choreography, there's no boom cat, there's nothing. Why are you?
Speaker 1:in a leotard. Can we go to that Like? Beyonce started doing that, right, just being in a leotard, and that was like her sing, that was her uniform, yes. And now you see other artists in leotards and I, like, I'm amazed that music that goes viral or artists that go viral right, you just need a beat and forget the words or whatever it is. To me they all sound the same, they're all saying the same thing, they all have the same exact style and when you think about it, these are the people that they are the ones who make it viral. They are the ones that are on the billboards and there's always this talk that you could be like an amazing, you could have like an amazing voice, but there's, like this it factor that calls you to this. What is that it factor? You know what I mean. Like, is it magic? Like I, just like.
Speaker 1:When you think about a Taylor Swift, you think about Britney Spears. I mean I. When you think about a Taylor Swift, you think about Britney Spears. I was a Britney fan. I liked her music, but it was just what was it? That kind of takes these, sometimes musicians who their voice is mediocre, but somehow they become like, I don't know they become these stars, someone like Badu or India Ari. They don't know they become these stars. You know, like someone like I do or India Ari, like they don't have that. They don't. They're amazing, but they just don't have that same star power.
Speaker 2:So it's a machine and certain people they put their backing. You know the companies will put their backing up, like take, for instance, do you remember tiara marie? Like tiara marie and um, rihanna, you know rihanna, I do know rihanna. Yeah, I'm sure you know tiara marie. I heard that name.
Speaker 2:Yeah, so they both came out around the same time, right and um, but for some reason, um, the backing was behind Rihanna, but Tierra was clearly the better singer and Tierra was pretty as well. Tierra was a was a little bit, which you know how that goes right. And so I'm just very curious as to why back Rihanna, who I love, my girl Riri, you know, but you know she serves goat vocals sometimes. Um, she's gotten better, she's taken some lessons, but you know um, but she got pushed, tierra didn't, and the trajectory of Tierra's life she's's been a love in hip hop. She's just you know. And look at Rihanna, look how wildly successful she is. Look at she's a, she's like a billionaire or whatever. Yeah, but I think my, my curiosity is why do we, why are certain people put in place?
Speaker 2:What is this setting us up for? For? Because if you want to give a message, it's through pop culture, it's through the masses, and so when you have basic ass, people that are famous, it's like who's behind you, what are the powers of you that are behind you, so that they can use your basic ass as a vehicle to send their messages out.
Speaker 1:You know so but it's, it's visually right, like who can appeal to it's not always visual.
Speaker 2:There's some very unattractive people that are famous um when it comes to musicians, especially with women okay, not with women.
Speaker 1:Not with women, yeah, women you have, like you could have a basic looking dude, but when it comes to women, there is a look and to your point about Tiara Marie versus Rihanna. Do you remember Tweet? Tweet came out around the same time as Ashanti People listening to Hot 97, I don't know who the host was at the time, but he clearly said Ashanti's going to get more play because she's lighter toned. That is what happened, right. Like you, don't really Ashanti, kind of you know her career shot up where Tweet it did not, and I love- so talented.
Speaker 2:Tweet is talented.
Speaker 1:She's beautiful, Right Like it's not about talent, it's this it factor and it's manufactured and it has a lot to do. I mean it's and I don't, like I love good music, like I don't need to watch you half naked on your video to enjoy you, but it seems like they're just pushing this. You know, and I don't know if I I remember being at the gym I think I told this story before where video after video of women singers it was the same choreography, the like you know, like sexual come hither whatever thing they were doing, and then you'll have the dude in like a beat-up t-shirt, like not giving a shit right, so Flava.
Speaker 2:Flav is famous. Look at that face.
Speaker 1:I don't know when it comes to women, it's, it's a whole it's. I mean, the standards are like up here you know, Girl, I was.
Speaker 2:I feel so old. Okay, I happen to be up and this is so embarrassing I can't believe what I'm saying.
Speaker 1:Face, face.
Speaker 2:Oh Lord, safe space, oh lord. So I was up and you know, on YouTube they have like the premiere and the countdowns, like when a video is going to premiere, and so I, spice, had a video premiere and it was a countdown and I waited for the countdown, not a safe space I waited for the countdown, not a safe space we should leave.
Speaker 1:I take that back. Please continue, because I want to hear the rest.
Speaker 2:I waited for the countdown. I don't even know what the name of the song was. It was her recent song, y'all Whoever knows. I was her recent song, y'all whoever knows. And I was fairly and utterly deeply disappointed Time, so I could never get back.
Speaker 1:How long did you wait?
Speaker 2:A minute? Oh my gosh, I waited a minute.
Speaker 1:Now I don't know how to feel about you.
Speaker 2:I could have read words.
Speaker 1:Didn't you like her art song? Yes, come on, girl. This is what I mean. There are songs that we like. Why do we like them?
Speaker 2:It's like and so I definitely think I spice is a plant, and but who is backing I spice and for what? Like literally yourself. This girl has walked across the stage, no one knows what she's saying, like she just exerts no energy, and then she does a little, a little twerk, a little ass shake, and then they clap. I'm like this is how easily we're entertained. Just shake, shake your ass. And I'm like this is how easily we're entertained, just shake your ass and then it's like okay.
Speaker 1:She's a plant. Sexy Red is a plant, I know.
Speaker 2:Sexy Red's agenda is very loud and clear. Sexy Red, this is my opinion. Let me just step on my soapbox. Okay, black women in particular have been making strides. Okay, black women, the mostly educated, right. Black women who are the like, the leading, like, homeowners, in terms of like, single women, right, black women, entrepreneurs all these things that are happening the birth rates are dropping, shout outs to birth control All of these things are happening, right, in terms of cleaning up of the Black female image.
Speaker 2:And here comes sexy red. Right, and you know, we've aged out. Right, we're grand millennials, we've aged out. But the rest of these generations, they're going to only know seeing us going to school and doing things. Right, so we have to make sure that we throw them off course, right? So let's bring in sexy red, right, let's bring in the ice spices, let's bring in all these people to show true and utter ignorance. And now, what do you see? You see these little girls, uh, in school singing sexy red, she's a plant, she's a plant that is a to create another narrative of the black female identity as opposed like.
Speaker 2:We already have to still navigate this world. Despite the changes that we have to go through, we still have to navigate this world. We have to have laws passed to allow us to wear our hair in our natural state on the job. Shout out to the Crown Act. So I'm setting off my soapbox, but I say this to say that you know I want to continue with the Taylor Swift situation. There's going to be more parts, y'all. Not back to back, because now I think it's in the concert experience where this mind control happens. Yeah, and I want to delve further, but that means that I'm going to have to watch. You just might Bland toast, like, just put bland toast in a leotard On the stage. Girl, I'm going to have to watch this. I already had to listen for this podcast to more Taylor Swift than I wanted to. The sacrifices I make.
Speaker 1:We appreciate you taking one.
Speaker 2:And so now I want to look at this concert footage to see what it's about and to see what people are experiencing, and to see if it can be a vehicle for mind control.
Speaker 1:But to that point, if you're going to watch it, is it going to be different than being live? Because I think the live experience might be.
Speaker 2:You gave me an idea, Soph. Now, I don't know any people in my immediate circle who have been to a Taylor Swift concert. However, I might have access to someone that has been to a Taylor. Swift concert.
Speaker 1:I know I work with a few people who love Taylor Swift.
Speaker 2:No judgment. I know a couple of Swifties of color. They're out there, they're like an oxymoron. They can like it a little, but I'm curious as to know what the experience maybe I can ask them. Thank you, soph. I'm going to see if I can ask them what it was like.
Speaker 1:I'm also going to watch and when I come up with something I'll come back to y'all, yeah, but her fan base, though, are people who are not afraid to spend money, so that also helps, right? You have like young kids and middle-aged adults.
Speaker 2:Yes, definitely. She has a good middle-aged Swifty crowd.
Speaker 1:She does she does has a good middle-aged Swifty crowd. She does. She does no judgment to Swifty fans, but we just I just question music in general and what's pushed at us and the things that we like. That's it. I do love a good conspiracy.
Speaker 2:I love conspiracies, and this was a good one and Mad Mine was, and Mad Mine was debunked though, but it's fine.
Speaker 1:If it's debunked, we're open to it. We don't stick to it. No matter what, there are people like they have this theory and no matter what you throw at them, they're like no.
Speaker 2:Yeah, we're open-minded over here.
Speaker 1:We are, we are. But speaking of conspiracy theories, let's delve into some more. This is a I want you to spot. I want you to spot which is the actual conspiracy theory.
Speaker 2:Okay.
Speaker 1:What I'm going to name.
Speaker 2:I like this one.
Speaker 1:So the CIA's use of cats in espionage? So they're using cats.
Speaker 2:Look at Enzi in the background.
Speaker 1:Boy, you hit it To spy on people. That's number one. So they're using kids. Look at Enzi in the background. Boy, you hit it To spy on people. That's number one. The ninth planet so a researcher says that there's an existence of a ninth planet called Nuburu. It has an elongated orbit around the sun, taking approximately 3,600 years to complete one revolution, and this orbit supposedly brings it close to the inner solar system, causing gravitational disturbances and other significant events on Earth. So that's the second. The third conspiracy, or whatever, is chemtrails left behind by aircraft in the sky, so that white stuff you see behind the sky or behind the aircraft. It's not just water vapor and exhaust, but are actual chemical or biological agents that cause illnesses, sterilization and a whole host of problems. So we had the spying kitties, the ninth planet and chemtrails. So which one is the conspiracy?
Speaker 2:The first one. I can't believe that my boy, my first son, would ever spy, would ever be a spy.
Speaker 1:Okay, well, operation Acoustic Kitty is true. Get out, get out. The CIA initiated a project known as Acoustic Kitty. The idea was to implant listening devices into a cat so it could be used to spy on the Soviet Union. The Cold War Ooh, that was a wild time.
Speaker 1:Boy do you hear that boy? Wow, the project involved surgically embedding a microphone in a radio transmitter into a cat with the hope that it could unobtrusively eavesdrop on conversations. It was deemed a failure. Reports suggest that the first cat used in the project was run over by a taxi during its mission. I'm sorry, all right, close your ears. I'm sorry, all right, let me close your ears. It was canceled because it became clear that cats could not be reliably trained to carry out the missions. I mean, we know cats, they don't care. Maybe they don't.
Speaker 2:Wow, I can't believe that was true.
Speaker 1:So that is true.
Speaker 1:So the ninth planet? So this one is true and false. So the author that I mentioned? He's an author and researcher, zachariah Sitchin. Author and researcher Zachariah Sitchin states that this ninth Anunnabu was inhabited by an advanced race of extraterrestrial beings called the Anunnaki. He claimed that they visited Earth in ancient times, contributing to human development by sharing their knowledge and technology. According to this researcher and author, the Anunnaki were responsible for the creation of human civilization, including the construction of ancient monuments and advancement in agriculture and science.
Speaker 1:If you ever get into like aliens and anything, this is like a huge theory and I love reading about it. Just because it's science fiction, it's awesome. And if it's true, it's like, oh my God. So, but so his theory was in 1976. Right, fast forward to 2016.
Speaker 1:So in 2016, astronomers Constantine Bedigan and Mike Brown from the California Institute of Technology proposed a theory about Planet Nine. So this guy who they think is crazy in 1976 is like hey, there's a ninth planet and aliens came to our planet and just messed with our DNA. Now they're saying now there's a theory out there, a legitimate theory, about Planet 9. They came up with this because they saw strange movements and distant objects in our solar system and thought there might be a big planet far away, pulling on them with its gravity. So scientists think there might be a big planet far away, pulling on them with its gravity. So scientists think there might be a big planet far, far away from us, way beyond Neptune, and they're calling it planet nine. They haven't seen it yet, but they think it's there because they noticed some other space rocks moving in strange ways. And this mystery planet might be five to 10 times as heavy as earth and it takes a super long time to go around the sun, maybe 10,000 to 20,000 years, not just other guys. What did he say? 3,600, way more. So you know they're using powerful telescopes to look at it and they hope to find it. So it's true and false, right? So there's, I mean in 1976, this guy is. He said right. So this I mean in 1976, this guy is. He said he's looking at, you know, ancient Sumerian texts and comes up with this theory of the ninth planet. And he's ridiculed because of all the extra stuff that he did with it. And there is a ninth planet and it's, and it has mainstream science behind it. So, and then chemtrails. And it has mainstream science behind it and then chemtrails that I just mentioned the actual conspiracy behind that. That is a conspiracy.
Speaker 1:Some believe that chemtrails are part of a secret government program to control the weather. They claim that chemicals are sprayed to create or prevent rain, alter temperatures or mitigate climate change. Another common claim is that chemtrails are used to disperse chemical that could kill the population, thereby causing illness, as I mentioned earlier, sterilization and even mind control. Also, theories that they're used for biological experiments on the population, testing the drugs spreading disease. And some argue that chemtrails are related to geoengineering efforts to reflect sunlight away from the Earth to combat global warming. And they, you know, all of this is kept secret. Of course the government denies it all. Of course the government denies it all. It's simply and they're like, this is simply condensation trails formed when hot exhaust from aircraft engines meets cold, moist air at high altitude. The process forms ice crystals, creating visible trails that can spread out and persist depending on the atmosphere conditions, and studies have consistently shown that the substance found in contrails that people are calling chemtrails are typical for aircraft emissions and all this other stuff. So there's no harmful stuff, so it's false.
Speaker 1:But geoengineering is real and it's really a set of ideas to help cool down or finding ways to cool down the planet and remove harmful gases. So there's a lot of research into it. There's a lot of experimenting when it comes to geoengineering. So we are messing with the weather, we are messing with the oceans, which you know it can have unintended consequences, and if we look at history, there are some harmful side effects. When we, you know, in the pursuit of progress in scientific research, you know a lot of times, when it comes to scientists, right, the end justifies the means. When we think about how much we know about the human body, when we came to that there were some really unethical practices, definitely Like grave robbing. You know all of that. So I say that to say who knows right, who knows what's going on. So that was fun, but yeah, so I'm sorry that was fun and look at my boy just like somebody talking about me creeping up with the creep up, he might be a
Speaker 2:spy, he'd be the worst spy, okay, but cats aren't meant to be spies. That was so much fun, all right, y'all. So for our last segment, we have a shady astrology. All right, it's where I get into your Zodiac's ass, right? So it's officially cancer season. All right, june 21st to July 22nd are the dates. It's the symbol of the crab Notable celebrities Kevin Hart, ariana Grande, missy Elliott, solange Knowles, tom Hanks and Meryl Streep right, got a good mixture there.
Speaker 2:So the good things, right. These crusty little crabs are Emotional homebodies and they have a way with food. They're definitely good cooks and the men like to. That's for Another podcast, alright, so I like the men, but the women, baby, let me tell you, ok, I worked with this one crabby ass, cancer hoe.
Speaker 2:Ok, she was such a mean girl. Ok, her and her little minions on the job, right. One day she tried to bully me about my client, right, she's been bullying us this whole time, right, and so I said calmly to her, in my Capricornius tone, I said that's why nobody likes you. And uh, it was a whole thing after that, like, uh, we had like meeting about it, and it was like this weird war girl, what's wrong with you? You've been harassing everyone's life. Being a freaking mean girl, I say one little thing to you and then, all of a sudden, you are shedding Caucasian tears and yes, she was Caucasian, anyway. So back to you, krusty Krabs, right? Basically, y'all are the masters of emotional chess, your passive, aggressive champions and your guilt tripping gurus of the Zodiac. I can't stand you crabby women. You need to go somewhere and just cry in an ocean with your pinchers. And that's your shady astrology. Oh, my God, my god, you know any cancer self.
Speaker 1:I don't know any of these zodiac signs, so I wouldn't know.
Speaker 2:Okay, well, I'm not cancer, so well, I just know I'm after cancer okay, oh, yeah, right, leo, all you little, all you little lions, I know too many.
Speaker 2:Leos. Leos and Libras, like Cancers, are cool. The men are cool, yeah, the men are cool and I'm a Capricorn, and so that's actually like our opposite Capricorn and Cancer. That's their opposites. Every Zodiac has like an opposite one, and so cancer is actually mine, so that's why I do get along with them in a romantic sense. But yeah, they're too emotional. We're not going to do that. Just look at me I'm crying in the corner Somewhere. We ain't got time for that, all right, y'all'all. Well, that's it For this episode.
