RIP David Wilcock · Journey to the Fringe

• 0:00
  I'm going to start right up top with a trigger
• 0:02
  warning on this. There is discussion of suicide
• 0:05
  in this mini. On Monday, April 20th, David Wilcock
• 0:09
  took his own life. I'm not going to go over the
• 0:12
  details of exactly what happened with it in this
• 0:15
  mini. They're out there to find if you so choose,
• 0:18
  and I don't think we're focusing on the how or
• 0:21
  why. Well, the how. I don't think we're going
• 0:23
  to even include any of the links to that stuff.
• 0:25
  If you want to find it, it's readily available
• 0:27
  out there. information is out there. This may
• 0:30
  be the most breaking thing Journey to the French
• 0:33
  has ever and probably will cover, rightfully
• 0:35
  so. As of recording, this happened less than
• 0:38
  a week ago. We've never covered anything like
• 0:41
  this. In fact, we record on Sundays and this
• 0:44
  is the first Sunday we are unable to listen to
• 0:46
  a David Wilcock live. Yeah, that makes me really
• 0:49
  sad. Wilcock was somehow a big part of our lives.
• 0:53
  Some may even say, I don't even know if it's
• 0:55
  speculation, he inspired the very concept of
• 0:58
  podcast. The some who may say that are us who
• 1:02
  say he's the whole reason we wanted to start
• 1:04
  a podcast. Yes, we have a five -part episode
• 1:07
  covering him. He even came up on our most recent
• 1:11
  mini that came out right after this all happened.
• 1:14
  He comes up constantly. Sometimes it's related
• 1:17
  to what we're talking about and sometimes we
• 1:19
  just love a random Wilcock reference. You may
• 1:22
  not even know that it's a Wilcock reference,
• 1:24
  but we certainly know it. We may even be in what
• 1:27
  is an optimal position to comment on this and
• 1:31
  this is a mini after all so I do have some articles
• 1:34
  for you. With this news the conspiracy community
• 1:37
  is doing its thing and it is ablaze with unhinged
• 1:41
  speculation. One of the articles I have is from
• 1:45
  Times Now quote are David Wilcock, Nick Pope
• 1:48
  and Eric von Daniken's death connected? Three
• 1:51
  UFO figures dead in months. That was published
• 1:55
  four days ago. Just a couple quotes that I pulled
• 1:57
  from there is just people pulling what people
• 2:00
  are saying online so it says one user wrote quote
• 2:03
  first it was Eric Von Danigan who died in January
• 2:06
  then Nick Pope earlier this month and now the
• 2:09
  news about David Wilcock all in the first half
• 2:11
  of 2026 if this news is true it really is awful
• 2:15
  and certainly suspicious and quote another posted
• 2:19
  quote so we're losing people in the ufology circles
• 2:22
  to three in one week Nick Pope just passed to
• 2:26
  What is happening?" End quote. Just for your
• 2:28
  reference, we haven't even talked about these
• 2:30
  deaths. Nick Pope died of stage four esophageal
• 2:34
  cancer that had metastasized to his liver. Which
• 2:38
  he had made statements about months in advance.
• 2:41
  Yeah. I believe it came out before Christmas
• 2:43
  that he had uncurable esophageal cancer. And
• 2:47
  it sounds just fucking awful. His wife actually
• 2:50
  said something that it's like a relief. So rest
• 2:53
  in peace, Nick Pope. Eric Von Daniken. for your
• 2:55
  information was fucking old as shit I think he
• 2:59
  was 93 yeah and he died optimally of old age
• 3:03
  that's the way you want to do it so there's no
• 3:06
  way that these are related and it's not the least
• 3:09
  bit suspicious get your shit together whoever's
• 3:12
  saying this but the main speculation we seem
• 3:16
  to be seeing Taylor and I have been speaking
• 3:18
  about this frequently, is the link to the missing
• 3:22
  and dead scientist that, yes, he did talk about
• 3:26
  on his last life. He had just mentioned that
• 3:28
  Donald Trump had said that he wanted to go after
• 3:32
  the missing and dead scientist. I think it was
• 3:33
  two sentences at most that he focused on it.
• 3:37
  So people are speculating that because of Stavadi
• 3:41
  that he is a scientist. He is in no way a scientist.
• 3:44
  It's a mini. There's an article. This one, you're
• 3:47
  going to like this one. I sent Lista Taylor already.
• 3:51
  Bollywoodshaddis .com and the o in the com is
• 3:54
  a heart for some reason. India's covering it.
• 3:57
  I think this is India. It's in English though.
• 3:59
  This one's titled People Are Disappearing. David
• 4:02
  Wilcox said he was grateful to be alive post
• 4:05
  UFO theorists deaths. Just two days before his
• 4:09
  reported death, paranormal writer and UFO expert
• 4:12
  David Wilcox had opened up about how grateful
• 4:14
  he is to be alive amid the mysterious deaths
• 4:17
  of his authors. I'm not gonna read that even
• 4:20
  though that title was weird. Everyone is tying
• 4:23
  it to the missing scientist saying that he would
• 4:26
  have never done this. They're saying somebody
• 4:29
  Havana syndrome him and caused him to do it to
• 4:33
  himself. It's the only thing I'm seeing essentially.
• 4:36
  Taylor and I obviously have a very unique viewpoint
• 4:39
  on this one and honestly I have a lot of complicated
• 4:42
  feelings looking back on this because we were
• 4:46
  witness to the decline of someone that ended
• 4:49
  very tragically. And I think it's safe to say
• 4:51
  for both of us, when we both heard the news,
• 4:54
  I don't think either of us had any point in our
• 4:57
  mind where we said he would never do that. No.
• 5:00
  It's complicated. There were very clear signs
• 5:02
  he was not in a good mental state. No, but at
• 5:06
  the time I wasn't like... I think he's a risk,
• 5:10
  oddly enough. I would have never thought that
• 5:13
  he would do something like that. But looking
• 5:15
  back on it, we were both in agreeance, like,
• 5:18
  yeah. So we watched his Sunday lives. It was
• 5:22
  pretty much a part of the routine. And I'm pretty
• 5:24
  sure our family resented us for it. Yes. If there
• 5:29
  are divorces in our future, this will be cited
• 5:32
  in it. It will be because of David Wilcock. Every
• 5:34
  time we're together, we throw in a David Wilcock
• 5:36
  live. We watched it pretty much every Sunday
• 5:39
  and we would always text about it. And we were
• 5:41
  both there and caught the last live. It was the
• 5:45
  day before this happened. We both commented and
• 5:48
  how upbeat and erratic he was. And he kept. I
• 5:52
  think there was two distinct, well, I guess three
• 5:55
  distinct emotional phases you could see him in.
• 5:58
  Yes. One is he is financially not well and he's
• 6:03
  trying way too hard and he is emotionally erratic.
• 6:06
  Then the next one is I've come into some money
• 6:09
  so I don't have to worry as much and he's not
• 6:12
  as exciting to watch, he's pretty boring. That's
• 6:14
  my next note. And then he went back into this
• 6:17
  phase in his last show and only his last show.
• 6:20
  The one immediately preceding this one was not
• 6:22
  that way. Yeah and they totally did used to be
• 6:25
  erratic and I feel bad saying it because obviously
• 6:27
  what happened and like I said before in retrospect
• 6:31
  the signs were there but I I didn't see them
• 6:33
  at the time, sadly. Not that I probably could
• 6:37
  have done anything, but they were always erratic
• 6:40
  and there's something charming about the guy.
• 6:43
  I don't know if I would call it charming, but
• 6:45
  I needed to watch it. like oh yeah no you wanted
• 6:48
  to know where the train wreck was going yeah
• 6:51
  that was what the whole thing always was i never
• 6:53
  thought the train wreck would be here otherwise
• 6:55
  i don't know that i could have brought myself
• 6:57
  to watch it and then they had gotten very boring
• 7:00
  so i'd only watched the first five minutes of
• 7:02
  a live i still went and then we both made comments
• 7:06
  on that sunday i even went back to the text messages
• 7:08
  to double check on it and it said what's going
• 7:11
  on with him today he commented about how he had
• 7:14
  a really bad week and wanted to cancelled that
• 7:17
  last live. He even put out a tweet saying that
• 7:20
  it was cancelled. And he thanked all of the admins,
• 7:23
  but he showed up. I didn't know that until after.
• 7:26
  And then he almost strictly played the hits,
• 7:28
  which unfortunately for David Wilcock is Angry
• 7:32
  Daddy and Tran Ma. Yep, that's the hit. And he
• 7:35
  was slipping into Bad Daddy like it was going
• 7:37
  out of style. The title was Pathway to Peace
• 7:40
  with Trump Jesus no less, but I think relevant
• 7:43
  that he chose that. He was commenting about how
• 7:46
  he was only eating salad. He looked super skinny.
• 7:50
  It's actually the first time I heard him talk
• 7:53
  about how skinny he was. People kept commenting
• 7:55
  on it before, but he would never actually go
• 7:58
  into it. He actually commented on that one and
• 8:01
  that he was pooping pellets, a part of why I
• 8:03
  also love to tune into a life. Yeah, you know
• 8:06
  a lot about his bowel movement. There's a slide
• 8:09
  on it almost every week. Yeah, there was. My
• 8:12
  favorite was when he was taking the horse. Oh,
• 8:16
  ivermectin, yeah. Couldn't poop for a long time.
• 8:20
  That was full of slides. And I think all of the
• 8:23
  speculation about Wilcock with missing scientists
• 8:26
  is not only the conspiracy community at work,
• 8:29
  but people trying to make sense of this. super
• 8:32
  tough to grasp. We found Wilcock incredibly entertaining.
• 8:36
  There was just something about the guy that made
• 8:38
  me want to see more. And I know my world definitely
• 8:41
  won't be the same without him. We're just commenting.
• 8:44
  Today was our first day without the live and
• 8:47
  it sucked. I kept wanting to open up YouTube
• 8:49
  and see what he was up to. And it's left a really
• 8:52
  weird hole that I never thought was possible.
• 8:55
  I can't find another crazy UFO guy because nobody
• 8:58
  like hit the spot like Wilcock did. And nobody
• 9:00
  goes live. on Sundays, unfortunately. I don't
• 9:04
  know if that's like the right time to bring it
• 9:06
  up, but man. It's sad, like I was shocked and
• 9:09
  it's super sad. I want to read you guys a part
• 9:13
  of his family's statement that they put out.
• 9:15
  I'm not going to read the whole thing, but I
• 9:17
  am going to read a portion of it that I thought
• 9:19
  was insightful and nice. Quote, David was widely
• 9:23
  known as a media personality and lecturer examining
• 9:26
  issues such as UFOs, UAPs. Not sure why they
• 9:30
  said both. This might have been put out by Angry
• 9:32
  Daddy and the paranormal. But this only tells
• 9:35
  part of the story of a life like that, like any
• 9:38
  other, unfolded through internal struggles, evolving
• 9:41
  beliefs, and a quest for meaning. David lived
• 9:44
  in a time shaped by the internet and he himself
• 9:47
  shaped a segment of it. This powerful medium
• 9:50
  of communication magnifies both connection and
• 9:53
  confusion. Ideas travel quickly, expand logarithmically,
• 9:57
  and reshape through thought structures. In remembering
• 10:00
  David is important to hold more than one truth
• 10:03
  at once, that some of his work raised concerns
• 10:05
  about misinformation and that he was also a person
• 10:08
  who was on an eternal quest for clarity. Beyond
• 10:11
  his public persona, he was a human navigating
• 10:14
  the same complexities and vulnerabilities that
• 10:17
  shape all our lives. His passing is a reminder
• 10:20
  of how important it is to meet one another with
• 10:22
  open minds and compassion in our hearts. The
• 10:25
  loss of a life can turn our focus to a shared
• 10:27
  humanity, whether we agree on life's unanswered
• 10:30
  questions or not." End quote. It was clear that
• 10:33
  Sunday episode in retrospect he had made peace
• 10:37
  with I think a decision that he had made and
• 10:40
  it says right in the family statement, I don't
• 10:44
  want to say too much about what happened, but
• 10:46
  it is for sure a decision that David Wilcock
• 10:49
  made and it wasn't any conspiracy in it. It's
• 10:53
  not he faked his own death. I saw that one too.
• 10:55
  It's not a part of a conspiracy with Havana syndrome
• 10:58
  or anything. It's pretty clear in retrospect
• 11:01
  this has happened. He had huge financial problems.
• 11:04
  His involvement in the community, after everything
• 11:07
  that happened with Corey Goode and Gaia TV, it
• 11:11
  seemed like his world was crumbling. He was stuck
• 11:13
  in a house that he was clearly miserable in,
• 11:17
  very isolated from people, clearly. He was clearly
• 11:20
  unwell mentally. There's a few things that I
• 11:23
  have when I'm looking back on this. One thing
• 11:26
  we need to acknowledge is I think we just need
• 11:28
  to say thank you, David, for everything that
• 11:30
  you did bring us. Yeah. It feels weird in hindsight
• 11:34
  thinking about this, but in your own unique way,
• 11:37
  you did inspire us to get into this. We did absolutely
• 11:41
  research into things because of you. And I do
• 11:44
  think, especially when we were younger, it did
• 11:46
  inspire us to get a better understanding of these
• 11:49
  topics. It may not have led the way he would
• 11:52
  have thought it would for us, but I think we
• 11:54
  are better having been introduced to him and
• 11:58
  seeing him and learning from him. You said that
• 12:00
  very nicely. inspired my further digging into
• 12:05
  these kind of topics and our love of him goes
• 12:08
  like way back to that like in my early 20s. I
• 12:11
  listened to him a lot and realized a lot of things
• 12:15
  which led us to here. I think the biggest thing
• 12:17
  to take away from this though is isolation is
• 12:20
  hell on people. When you look at this man, what
• 12:24
  you see is a man falling into isolation over
• 12:28
  that period of time. And yes, he had thousands
• 12:30
  of people watching him every week, but that was
• 12:33
  still isolation. These are not interactions he's
• 12:37
  having. And you could tell with how he interacted
• 12:39
  with the chat. There is a disconnect. It wasn't
• 12:41
  a social interaction. There was a disconnect.
• 12:43
  Oh, yeah. And unchecked mental health can really
• 12:48
  cause damage. I think we're going to put in the
• 12:51
  notes for this episode links to suicide hotlines
• 12:54
  and I think it is important to note too if you
• 12:57
  know somebody who is depressed or suicidal and
• 13:01
  they make a sudden recovery there's a chance
• 13:04
  that that recovery is they've made their decision
• 13:06
  to take a step. Mm -hmm. So just be aware of
• 13:10
  that. Yeah, and I think that's what we saw here
• 13:12
  on Sunday Yeah, which is not sitting well with
• 13:15
  me. We were planning actually a Wilcock episode
• 13:18
  in the near future I don't know when that'll
• 13:20
  be now. Anyhow, it's a mini like Taylor said
• 13:24
  I'm gonna put in the suicide crisis lifelines
• 13:27
  in the notes while Taylor is actually if you
• 13:30
  must know Yes, and if you or someone you know
• 13:32
  was battling with thoughts of suicide 988 is
• 13:35
  the suicide hotline I double -checked it that
• 13:38
  it's North America 988. And I think not a good
• 13:42
  place to end on. Well, I think it's important.
• 13:45
  Nobody is going to think different of you for
• 13:47
  reaching out and call somebody. Nobody is going
• 13:51
  to think different of you for taking that step.
• 13:54
  They will think differently if you do end things.
• 13:57
  You'll live a big hole on everybody around you.
• 14:00
  And it's even people that you may not even think
• 14:03
  that you have an effect on. Like we see here
• 14:05
  with David Will. Unfortunately. If you guys got
• 14:08
  48 hours, if you need it, reach out to that number.
• 14:11
  If not, let's just contemplate a weird man who
• 14:15
  left an impact on all our lives. Yeah. Bye. Rest
• 14:18
  in peace, David Wilcock. Bye.
