Latest / Cosmic Peach / THROWBACK THURSDAY! BREAKDOWN- SHAKEDOWN: The Golden Child
Transcript
- 0:20Speaker 1: Welcome to Throwback Thursday. So these are some of the
- 0:27Speaker 1: oldies but goodies, the classics, and they are some of
- 0:33Speaker 1: the episodes that are probably in the back of the
- 0:37Speaker 1: catalog that you haven't managed to listen to yet. So,
- 0:43Speaker 1: Just a warning, some of my thoughts, feelings, opinions may
- 0:46Speaker 1: have changed since the recordings of these episodes.
- 0:51Speaker 2: Doesn't make them any less interesting.
- 0:53Speaker 1: So, as an evolving human being, I may say something
- 0:58Speaker 1: in these episodes that I don't necessarily agree with today.
- 1:02Speaker 2: But, these episodes are the classics.
- 1:05Speaker 1: And I just thought I would do a little something
- 1:07Speaker 1: fun for us. So, welcome and enjoy Throwback Thursday.
- 1:49Speaker 3: Howdy folks, your host Double J back here coming at
- 1:51Speaker 3: you live slash live from my studio slash RV dining
- 1:58Speaker 3: room located directly outside the city of Little Port-au-Prince, Ohio.
- 2:04Speaker 3: The city formerly known as Springfield, Ohio. You know, apparently
- 2:09Speaker 3: the place where they're eating the cats or eating the dogs. Anyhow, folks,
- 2:15Speaker 3: once again, your host, Double J, here. I will be
- 2:18Speaker 3: your pilot navigator for tonight's shenanigan-infused journey into the mind
- 2:22Speaker 3: of this particular garbage can dude. Got a real barn
- 2:26Speaker 3: burner on deck for you folks here tonight, and we're
- 2:30Speaker 3: going to go through an occult and or esoteric review
- 2:35Speaker 3: of the 1986 cinematic masterpiece starring Eddie Murphy, The Golden Child.
- 2:42Speaker 4: And joining me here tonight is Nick from the Occult Rejects. Nick, welcome.
- 2:47Speaker 3: Welcome, sir.
- 2:47Speaker 5: What's going on, man? Thank you very much.
- 2:50Speaker 3: Oh, for sure. And fellow Occult Rejects, Cosmic Pete's Julia
- 2:54Speaker 3: and Jen the Ninja. Hi.
- 2:58Speaker 6: What's up?
- 3:00Speaker 3: Welcome back to Operation GCD.
- 3:01Speaker 4: Jen and Julia.
- 3:03Speaker 3: Welcome.
- 3:04Speaker 4: You've been on, we've done Fridays, I.
- 3:05Speaker 3: Think, together and some other shows, but this is your
- 3:08Speaker 3: first Operation GCD experience, so. Welcome.
- 3:12Speaker 2: Yeah. The grass is greener over here, I think. I
- 3:15Speaker 2: like it. I like the air over here.
- 3:18Speaker 7: Nice.
- 3:20Speaker 3: I like green grass. I think Nick agrees with me
- 3:22Speaker 3: on that one. He knows what I'm talking about.
- 3:24Speaker 5: Yes, yes.
- 3:27Speaker 3: So I'm glad to hear this came together in an
- 3:31Speaker 3: unofficial fashion in such a fantastic way because, quite honestly,
- 3:36Speaker 3: this spun out of tonight's show reviewing The Golden Child.
- 3:40Speaker 3: If folks aren't familiar with the film, I will be
- 3:42Speaker 3: playing a brief trailer here for us. And before we
- 3:48Speaker 3: dive into any of the details, I found the original
- 3:50Speaker 3: trailer that was the, I guess it was from early
- 3:54Speaker 3: 1986 because it came out in December of 86, I believe,
- 3:57Speaker 3: the film did. So it's a great trailer. It's a
- 4:01Speaker 3: perfect 80s trailer. And it does a great job. It
- 4:04Speaker 3: actually explains the story and the narrative of the plot line,
- 4:07Speaker 3: whereas today's trailers do none of that. There's so many
- 4:10Speaker 3: trailers I watch today, I'm like, what the fuck's this
- 4:13Speaker 3: movie even about, man?
- 4:16Speaker 8: Yeah.
- 4:16Speaker 5: Yeah.
- 4:20Speaker 3: I mean, it's quite honestly, I think it's the formula
- 4:22Speaker 3: in which Hollywood makes films today.
- 4:23Speaker 4: And that's one example.
- 4:26Speaker 3: Don't want to go off on too big of a tangent,
- 4:27Speaker 3: but one example, there was a film about 10 years ago.
- 4:31Speaker 3: It was a Spanish language film even, and it was
- 4:33Speaker 3: supposed to be a drama film. And it was apparently this,
- 4:37Speaker 3: you know, they put a lot of money into it.
- 4:39Speaker 3: So for some reason they wanted to try to save it. So,
- 4:42Speaker 3: It was going to be completely shit-canned, and the studio
- 4:45Speaker 3: called in, I believe it was Keanu Reeves, to come
- 4:48Speaker 3: in for two weeks, film a bunch of scenes.
- 4:53Speaker 6: Oh, shit.
- 4:54Speaker 5: We lost him. Oh, he's froze. Froze on his own show.
- 4:57Speaker 5: Isn't that horrible?
- 4:58Speaker 2: Froze on your own show.
- 5:01Speaker 3: Am I back?
- 5:02Speaker 9: Am I back?
- 5:02Speaker 5: You're back.
- 5:03Speaker 2: You're back.
- 5:04Speaker 3: Where'd I cut out?
- 5:05Speaker 4: Romance drama?
- 5:07Speaker 2: Keanu Reeves?
- 5:09Speaker 3: Yeah, they called in Keanu to film like two weeks
- 5:11Speaker 3: of shit and they changed it into a crime, some
- 5:13Speaker 3: sort of crime thriller. They went from romance drama to
- 5:16Speaker 3: crime thriller from two different languages. I'm just saying a
- 5:19Speaker 3: lot of films are very formulaic in this day and
- 5:22Speaker 3: age when they can pull off a stunt like that.
- 5:24Speaker 3: I don't think anyone saw it at the theaters anyway,
- 5:26Speaker 3: but nonetheless, like, you know, until the last two weeks
- 5:30Speaker 3: of filming, it was a Spanish language romance, you know, film.
- 5:35Speaker 3: And then they brought in Keanu and made it some
- 5:37Speaker 3: sort of crime thriller.
- 5:38Speaker 4: You know, and in English speaking.
- 5:39Speaker 3: So again, you know, they don't, you know, what I'm
- 5:42Speaker 3: getting at is, you know, I think there was a
- 5:44Speaker 3: certain craft to filmmaking still in the eighties, not only
- 5:47Speaker 3: just the writing, as I'm pointing out and plot lines
- 5:50Speaker 3: and the trailers to even describe these fucking films, but the, um.
- 5:54Speaker 4: You're rubbing off on me, Julia, with, with all your.
- 5:56Speaker 3: Cursing, like a sailor. I feel like I have to curse. The, uh,
- 6:02Speaker 3: I mean, I'm an old retired senior master sergeant, sorry,
- 6:05Speaker 3: master sergeant, senior NCO from the Air Force, so it
- 6:07Speaker 3: doesn't take me much, but I'm not a sailor, but
- 6:09Speaker 3: it's about the same language, you know what I mean?
- 6:11Speaker 2: I barely had to push you in that direction.
- 6:13Speaker 3: That's what I'm saying.
- 6:15Speaker 5: You just needed a nudge.
- 6:17Speaker 3: I did that for 20 years in the Air Force, right?
- 6:20Speaker 3: It wasn't the Navy, but it's the same difference, I suppose.
- 6:25Speaker 3: But also, I think this film was great in the
- 6:28Speaker 3: special effects, right?
- 6:30Speaker 2: For the 80s. I think so.
- 6:35Speaker 3: Pretty monumental achievements I think they did with some real-time
- 6:38Speaker 3: special effects.
- 6:39Speaker 5: Yeah, like when the guy goes to meditate and the
- 6:41Speaker 5: bad guy shows up and everything blows away. I thought
- 6:44Speaker 5: that was pretty impressive.
- 6:46Speaker 3: Yeah, there was a lot of those scenes, right?
- 6:50Speaker 6: Well, to riff off your point, JJ, which I think
- 6:52Speaker 6: is really good, is there's a technical aspect of filmmaking, obviously,
- 6:56Speaker 6: because they were using actual cameras, actual celluloid. And I
- 7:00Speaker 6: think that that plays a big part in technical craftsmanship,
- 7:04Speaker 6: because if you don't do something, how would you know
- 7:07Speaker 6: how to do it? So if you're relying on. Um,
- 7:10Speaker 6: digital and I'm not an anti digital, especially for the
- 7:13Speaker 6: early two thousands. I think it was really cool that
- 7:15Speaker 6: there's a lot of shows that like have that interesting,
- 7:18Speaker 6: like darker blue kind of filter that you can only
- 7:22Speaker 6: really do with digital, like candy cams. And I think
- 7:25Speaker 6: that that was innovative, but I think really this is
- 7:28Speaker 6: something totally different. This is like that. I think this
- 7:31Speaker 6: is why you like it. I think this is why
- 7:32Speaker 6: I like it. And it's, and I think this is
- 7:34Speaker 6: why Julia likes it. And also Nick, because it's like
- 7:36Speaker 6: something classic, it's something grammar it's very coherent as a
- 7:42Speaker 6: film language.
- 7:45Speaker 3: Oh for sure i'm anti-cgi so i i definitely yeah.
- 7:48Speaker 2: I mean you know what i would compare it to
- 7:50Speaker 2: is like a lot of the movies that come out
- 7:52Speaker 2: recently it's like i think i heard somebody else say
- 7:55Speaker 2: this too but the marvel movies and stuff like that
- 7:59Speaker 2: it's like uh it's like going uh to a theme
- 8:01Speaker 2: park and you ride the rides and you woo and
- 8:05Speaker 2: then it's over with Whereas movies in the 80s and
- 8:09Speaker 2: before that, obviously, and even some movies in the 90s,
- 8:12Speaker 2: maybe early 2000s, they were more like a story. They
- 8:16Speaker 2: were more like an experience. You get enthralled with it
- 8:22Speaker 2: and it takes you on a journey. Whereas now it's
- 8:26Speaker 2: kind of just bread and circus-y type stuff. It's like,
- 8:31Speaker 2: just fill your mind with this garbage and be happy
- 8:35Speaker 2: with it.
- 8:36Speaker 3: I mean, Oh, for sure. It's terrible.
- 8:38Speaker 6: Right.
- 8:38Speaker 4: They just call it in with writing.
- 8:40Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 8:41Speaker 4: That's what I was getting at.
- 8:42Speaker 3: When you can just call on Keanu and change your
- 8:44Speaker 3: entire language of your film and genre.
- 8:46Speaker 4: Of your film in two weeks. Like clearly there's a
- 8:48Speaker 4: formula to these.
- 8:49Speaker 6: Films, right?
- 8:50Speaker 4: Right.
- 8:50Speaker 10: Yeah.
- 8:51Speaker 11: Yeah.
- 8:52Speaker 2: And I think the comedy was better back then. Like,
- 8:56Speaker 2: don't get me wrong. I like super bad and like
- 8:59Speaker 2: Judd Apatow movies. I like that kind of comedy because
- 9:01Speaker 2: I'll watch that stuff to Pineapple Express. But there was
- 9:05Speaker 2: something about like the 80s comedy that was like a
- 9:09Speaker 2: full belly laugh. Like, I hate to even say it, but.
- 9:14Speaker 2: 80s movies that I grew up on were like The
- 9:16Speaker 2: Burbs and Money Pit. I know Tom Hanks is a shithead,
- 9:21Speaker 2: but like those movies made me laugh so hard. All
- 9:25Speaker 2: Eddie Murphy movies made me laugh so hard. And when
- 9:29Speaker 2: I go back and watch them again, even now, I'm
- 9:32Speaker 2: still laughing at the same like five jokes just over
- 9:35Speaker 2: and over again. Like they're still so funny.
- 9:38Speaker 6: Yeah.
- 9:39Speaker 3: That's one of the things I love about this movie
- 9:41Speaker 3: is that he plays Axel Foley, basically. So it's like
- 9:43Speaker 3: Beverly Hills Cop, but he's an L.A. private detective solving satanic,
- 9:48Speaker 3: you know, kidnapping by a satanic cult of a young girl.
- 9:51Speaker 3: He ends up fighting demons. This little Tibetan kid that
- 9:54Speaker 3: turns out to be a girl. I thought that was
- 9:56Speaker 3: a boy in the film. Turns out to be a girl,
- 9:58Speaker 3: not trans.
- 9:59Speaker 6: Not trans.
- 10:00Speaker 3: Yeah it's a girl that's a girl that's a girl
- 10:03Speaker 3: i don't want to i want a spoiler alert they
- 10:05Speaker 3: don't tell you that in the film though i just
- 10:06Speaker 3: found that out actually not that long ago i popped
- 10:09Speaker 3: up my youtube feed like you know where are they
- 10:12Speaker 3: now you know golden golden child you know and eddie
- 10:15Speaker 3: murphy's looking rough but i like eddie murphy in the
- 10:17Speaker 3: early 80s you know And they were like, hey, this
- 10:21Speaker 3: is the boy from the Golden Child.
- 10:22Speaker 4: I'm like, that's a girl.
- 10:23Speaker 3: They're like, yeah. And I was like, oh, that's trans.
- 10:25Speaker 3: They're like, nope, it was a girl the entire time.
- 10:27Speaker 3: I'm like, well, that's bizarre. I didn't know that.
- 10:31Speaker 9: Whoa.
- 10:31Speaker 2: Okay, well, I did not know that. Yeah, that's a
- 10:34Speaker 2: fun fact. I could have swore it was a boy.
- 10:37Speaker 3: But before I play the trailer and before I turn
- 10:42Speaker 3: it over to y'all for any other comments here to
- 10:44Speaker 3: start off the show... Did you I just want to
- 10:48Speaker 3: point out this is my favorite era of Murphy, like
- 10:51Speaker 3: you were saying there, Julia, like later Murphy, I could
- 10:54Speaker 3: do without, you know, pre pre trans hooker Murphy, you know,
- 10:59Speaker 3: remember that incident in the 90s where suddenly Eddie Murphy's
- 11:02Speaker 3: associated with all these transgendered hookers on the streets of L.A.
- 11:06Speaker 3: And then he gets busted by the tabloids. Actually, he
- 11:09Speaker 3: gets busted by Andrew Breitbart. He's the one he busted.
- 11:11Speaker 3: They broke that story. And then suddenly Eddie's friends, Eddie's
- 11:15Speaker 3: transgendered hooker friends are getting thrown off of Tops buildings
- 11:18Speaker 3: all of a sudden. Strange tale.
- 11:20Speaker 6: That's so crazy, dude.
- 11:22Speaker 3: I mean, wasn't this around the.
- 11:23Speaker 2: Same time that Boomerang and Vampire in Brooklyn and all
- 11:28Speaker 2: those movies were big?
- 11:32Speaker 3: Yeah, exactly.
- 11:33Speaker 4: I'm good with everything before that.
- 11:35Speaker 2: Oh, okay.
- 11:36Speaker 3: That's the dividing.
- 11:38Speaker 4: Whatever he got into around that time.
- 11:40Speaker 3: And to be honest with you, I think the reason
- 11:41Speaker 3: a lot of 80s films, a lot of 80s comedies
- 11:43Speaker 3: were so good is cocaine. Maybe.
- 11:49Speaker 2: Harlem Nights.
- 11:51Speaker 3: Very cocaine-fueled. No, I think all of these productions, like,
- 11:55Speaker 3: very cocaine-fueled. In fact, tonight's production, The Golden Child, is
- 11:58Speaker 3: only one degree of separation from Bob Cocaine Evans. The
- 12:06Speaker 3: production of this film. So if you're talking Hollywood and
- 12:08Speaker 3: you're talking cocaine... few old 1980s films. This is right
- 12:12Speaker 3: in the epicenter of that wheelhouse because, like I said,
- 12:15Speaker 3: it's ultimately the green light of the film from Paramount
- 12:19Speaker 3: Pictures is the guy that Bob Evans hires to replace
- 12:22Speaker 3: him there. He gets his independent producer role on the
- 12:26Speaker 3: lot until 81 when he gets popped for them cocaine
- 12:30Speaker 3: trafficking charges. And then his buddy Barry Diller throws him
- 12:34Speaker 3: off the lot as the legend goes. And Barry Diller
- 12:36Speaker 3: is a very important character But yeah, he was Bob,
- 12:42Speaker 3: cocaine Bob's underling.
- 12:45Speaker 2: Well, before you play the trailer, I just have to
- 12:48Speaker 2: say two things. I get exactly what you're saying, but
- 12:50Speaker 2: there is a movie he made later in life that's
- 12:54Speaker 2: called Life. Do you remember that one? He was older,
- 12:57Speaker 2: I think.
- 12:58Speaker 4: Yeah, it was Martin Lawrence.
- 12:59Speaker 2: Yeah, that's still one of my, yeah, still one of
- 13:03Speaker 2: my faves. I know he was kind of on his
- 13:06Speaker 2: way out at the time, but I still love that movie.
- 13:10Speaker 2: And unpopular opinion, I actually think his brother is funnier
- 13:14Speaker 2: than he is. Charlie Murphy.
- 13:16Speaker 4: Charlie Murphy.
- 13:18Speaker 3: Charlie Murphy. Well, please, while you're still there talking, Julie,
- 13:22Speaker 3: please introduce your show since I didn't give you the
- 13:24Speaker 3: proper time here to do that thus far. Oh, well, thanks.
- 13:27Speaker 9: Yeah.
- 13:28Speaker 2: I have Cosmic Peach podcast available wherever. I'm really happy
- 13:32Speaker 2: to be here tonight because I've been looking for somebody
- 13:35Speaker 2: to cover this movie with me for two years now.
- 13:38Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 13:40Speaker 2: Either no one's interested or they haven't seen it or
- 13:43Speaker 2: they don't understand why i think it's significant um but
- 13:48Speaker 2: so when you mentioned it the other night i was
- 13:50Speaker 2: like if you don't let me on that one i'm
- 13:52Speaker 2: going to cry and just be in the comments shitting
- 13:57Speaker 2: on you guys the whole time i should have been
- 14:00Speaker 2: on this one fuck you guys.
- 14:02Speaker 3: I was excited to see that you were so into
- 14:04Speaker 3: it because this is one of my favorite films and
- 14:06Speaker 3: we kind of we did big trouble little china a
- 14:08Speaker 3: few months ago and the kind of the spinoff of
- 14:11Speaker 3: that is we decided to do this because this was
- 14:12Speaker 3: the competing Hollywood project to Big Trouble Little China and
- 14:16Speaker 3: share some of the same actors as Big Trouble Little China,
- 14:19Speaker 3: not just Victor Wong, who had a very great year.
- 14:22Speaker 3: He might have had the best year in Hollywood for
- 14:25Speaker 3: an Asian actor north of 50 years old. He won
- 14:30Speaker 3: that year for that category.
- 14:33Speaker 2: Isn't he Chang in Tremors?
- 14:37Speaker 11: Yeah.
- 14:38Speaker 10: Yeah.
- 14:40Speaker 3: He's the grandfather in the Three Ninjas trilogy, which was
- 14:42Speaker 3: a big part of my childhood.
- 14:44Speaker 2: Yeah, I loved Tremors when I was little. And then
- 14:47Speaker 2: when I was doing the notes today, I was like,
- 14:50Speaker 2: I put in the side note, I said, did anyone
- 14:52Speaker 2: else realize that the old guy is Chang from Tremors?
- 14:58Speaker 3: That old guy, ma'am, is Egg Chen. Egg Chen's a legend.
- 15:04Speaker 3: And he killed it in this one, too, right?
- 15:06Speaker 5: Oh, yeah, for sure.
- 15:07Speaker 2: 100%.
- 15:09Speaker 4: That's what I'm saying. He was killing it in 1986.
- 15:11Speaker 3: He had a big.
- 15:12Speaker 4: Year that year.
- 15:16Speaker 3: So, Nick, Jen, before we play the trailer and start
- 15:19Speaker 3: the show here, may I offer you any comments? What
- 15:23Speaker 3: are you all working on over there at the Occult Rejects? Nick,
- 15:25Speaker 3: I know you're pumping out new shows every day. The
- 15:28Speaker 3: Occult Elvis just popped out today, huh?
- 15:30Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, yeah. The Occult Elvis, that was fun, actually.
- 15:33Speaker 5: That was really interesting. Yeah, Julie was there for that
- 15:36Speaker 5: as well. Oh, yeah, weren't you there? Yeah, you were
- 15:38Speaker 5: there for that. Yeah, fuck.
- 15:39Speaker 3: I was there. I've seen it.
- 15:42Speaker 9: Too.
- 15:43Speaker 5: Totally forgot I'm burnt.
- 15:46Speaker 3: That was a good show though. I really enjoyed that.
- 15:49Speaker 3: I haven't got a chance to re-listen to it, but
- 15:51Speaker 3: the first time I listened to it when I was there,
- 15:52Speaker 3: it was a good show.
- 15:53Speaker 5: Yeah, it spurred off to Tuesday Weld. Yeah, that's right.
- 15:57Speaker 3: That is where the Tuesday Weld, I really liked that show.
- 16:00Speaker 3: That was a good one. I was just as excited
- 16:02Speaker 3: when you brought up Tuesday Weld as you were sounding
- 16:04Speaker 3: like as you were excited when I brought up The
- 16:06Speaker 3: Golden Child.
- 16:07Speaker 2: It's a full circle moment here.
- 16:09Speaker 6: Full circle.
- 16:10Speaker 2: For the occult rejects. It's a full circle. We're the
- 16:13Speaker 2: dream team at this point.
- 16:15Speaker 10: Right.
- 16:16Speaker 4: I agree.
- 16:17Speaker 5: I like that. I like that. We got some Red
- 16:20Speaker 5: Heifer stuff coming out this week.
- 16:23Speaker 9: Nice.
- 16:24Speaker 5: Yeah, some stuff we did with Broadcasting Seeds. We got
- 16:27Speaker 5: that coming out Friday for people listening now. And over
- 16:29Speaker 5: the weekend, we will have, for audio listeners, and you
- 16:33Speaker 5: probably wouldn't be watching now, but we got Mormon Mafia
- 16:36Speaker 5: Part 4 dropping audio.
- 16:38Speaker 4: Oh, yeah.
- 16:40Speaker 3: That's a great series. Jen's involved in that one, aren't you, Jen?
- 16:43Speaker 3: What's going on over there, Jen? You hiding out as
- 16:45Speaker 3: a ninja? You doing ninja stuff?
- 16:47Speaker 6: Hi, JJ, but thank you so much for inviting me on.
- 16:50Speaker 6: I love to do, especially, cinema, O'Call reviews. This is
- 16:54Speaker 6: obviously our second one. And, of course, my boss, Nick, Mr.
- 16:57Speaker 9: 93.
- 16:57Speaker 6: There you go. Or 33, but I'll upgrade him this time.
- 17:00Speaker 6: There you go. So I have a, I have two
- 17:06Speaker 6: notes actually. So I'll do those at the end. So
- 17:09Speaker 6: this is one is about sure. I think it's very interesting.
- 17:13Speaker 6: I think Julia will be actually interested in it. And
- 17:16Speaker 6: if Heidi's listening, so shout out Heidi, I think she'll
- 17:18Speaker 6: actually find it interesting too. And then I have a
- 17:22Speaker 6: note about the cutting your hair on waxing and waning moon,
- 17:26Speaker 6: because we talked about this literally yesterday or the other day.
- 17:29Speaker 4: I was going to say that just came up, right?
- 17:32Speaker 6: That's right. So I have a note about that. So
- 17:34Speaker 6: I will come back to that. But I have a show,
- 17:36Speaker 6: Threshold Saints. It's speculative ontology. We're exploring metaphysics through pop culture.
- 17:43Speaker 6: But it's not like Julia. If you watch Julia's show,
- 17:46Speaker 6: and I obviously want everyone to watch Julia's show, but
- 17:50Speaker 6: it's different. We approach it from different ways. I look
- 17:53Speaker 6: at everything through parafiction and through like a technical kind
- 17:57Speaker 6: of Kabbalah. Tantra, Mixture, Crazy, Wild, Wisdom. So if you're
- 18:02Speaker 6: interested in that, you can definitely subscribe. And I just
- 18:06Speaker 6: dropped a three-part episode on Ralph Bakshi. And then I'm
- 18:10Speaker 6: also dropping another episode this week. So yeah, big thanks
- 18:13Speaker 6: for that. But okay, so a note about Tuesday Welds.
- 18:19Speaker 6: So I think what this is, when I was watching
- 18:22Speaker 6: the episode, I was so excited. Best episode, I think
- 18:24Speaker 6: one of my favorites, personal favorites. I thought it was
- 18:26Speaker 6: so phenomenal.
- 18:28Speaker 3: Nice.
- 18:29Speaker 6: Okay, so for Tuesday, I actually think she embodied this
- 18:33Speaker 6: concept called the Ishaf Zenunim. So this is the, sometimes
- 18:37Speaker 6: that's translated as the virgin whore, but it can also
- 18:41Speaker 6: be understood as the princess of the Kalipas. So there's
- 18:45Speaker 6: a- I suspect that's not a literal virgin, right, Jen? Yes,
- 18:49Speaker 6: like that because- Not with Tuesday. Yeah, because it was
- 18:51Speaker 6: all about sex magic, right? So you had, but Tuesday
- 18:55Speaker 6: would have never participated physically. I'm just saying, if she
- 18:59Speaker 6: fills that archetype, there's no.
- 19:01Speaker 3: Oh, I hear you.
- 19:02Speaker 4: I was just being a smartass.
- 19:03Speaker 3: So this is a.
- 19:04Speaker 4: You're totally right.
- 19:05Speaker 6: You're totally right. No, no, you're totally right, JJ. I
- 19:07Speaker 6: just was meaning that if she embodies that concept, that's
- 19:11Speaker 6: why she remained. One reason, maybe, you could say. Then
- 19:15Speaker 6: the other ones didn't.
- 19:17Speaker 3: Would you say this is a powerful position within an
- 19:19Speaker 3: occult network, what you're describing?
- 19:21Speaker 6: Yeah, it would have been like the highest of the highest.
- 19:26Speaker 4: Interesting.
- 19:26Speaker 6: It would have been, like, the person who channeled whatever
- 19:29Speaker 6: they're channeling.
- 19:30Speaker 5: Would you be, like, considering it, like, I'm trying to understand,
- 19:33Speaker 5: I guess, the type of feminine. Would it be more of, like,
- 19:35Speaker 5: an Empress card instead of Netslack? Is that what you're, like,
- 19:38Speaker 5: kind of getting at?
- 19:39Speaker 6: Yes, yes. It's more Yasotic. With a little Hode, maybe.
- 19:43Speaker 5: Yeah, that would be, like.
- 19:45Speaker 3: She was a hell all right that's the rumor at
- 19:49Speaker 3: least well.
- 19:51Speaker 6: I think that until she got married she had to
- 19:54Speaker 6: maintain a like degree of virginity i'm not saying that
- 19:57Speaker 6: she wasn't involved in sexual things i'm sure that what
- 20:01Speaker 6: she did i actually kind of know so i'll just
- 20:03Speaker 6: say it is that I think what she did was
- 20:05Speaker 6: she directed the sexual activities of other people. That's how
- 20:11Speaker 6: I would understand it in a more technical way. Obviously,
- 20:14Speaker 6: I don't think of things as sex magic or whatever.
- 20:16Speaker 6: I just am looking at it more technically. So I
- 20:19Speaker 6: think she would sort of channel the Dakini or whatever
- 20:22Speaker 6: they're doing, the feminine divine force, but her mind is virginal.
- 20:26Speaker 6: So she doesn't You know, she's not the whore particularly.
- 20:30Speaker 6: She's a virgin whore. So she maybe directs sexual actions
- 20:33Speaker 6: of people around her, but she's not herself.
- 20:38Speaker 5: Engaged.
- 20:40Speaker 3: That doesn't describe Tuesday Wells' activities. She's very much the director.
- 20:44Speaker 5: Yeah, it was like P. Diddy at his party. Same shot.
- 20:49Speaker 3: It's like how cocaine Bob Evans brought together the lovely
- 20:53Speaker 3: couple of Roman Polanski and Sharon Tate in nuptials. Only
- 20:57Speaker 3: for Sharon Tate to meet her untimely demise. I often wonder,
- 21:01Speaker 3: was that the plan going in? Well, somebody's got.
- 21:05Speaker 2: To be pulling the strings behind.
- 21:08Speaker 3: And that is correct, ma'am. And I would say that's
- 21:10Speaker 3: Tuesday Weld. I'm glad you brought that up there, Jen,
- 21:12Speaker 3: because tonight's discussion includes satanic cult activity in and around
- 21:17Speaker 3: Los Angeles, California.
- 21:19Speaker 4: Which is where she'd be pulling them strings from.
- 21:21Speaker 3: And I think there's a good tie-in to that whole
- 21:24Speaker 3: scene with this whole film. Not as much as the
- 21:27Speaker 3: comparison I just did here with the dragnet and the
- 21:30Speaker 3: comparison of the process church activities in and around Los
- 21:33Speaker 3: Angeles circa 1980s. Highly recommend that. But definitely more satanic
- 21:39Speaker 3: cult activity and weird blood rituals. But on that note,
- 21:43Speaker 3: we will watch the trailer here and get back to
- 21:46Speaker 3: unpacking these ideas here in one moment.
- 22:00Speaker 7: Every thousand generations, a perfect child is born. A child
- 22:06Speaker 7: with magical powers.
- 22:09Speaker 5: A child sent to bring good into the world.
- 22:13Speaker 3: A golden child.
- 22:18Speaker 7: And now this child has been kidnapped by the forces
- 22:20Speaker 7: of evil. as foretold by the Nichung Oracle. Only one
- 22:26Speaker 7: man can find him. Only one man can rescue him.
- 22:30Speaker 7: He is a man from the City of Angels.
- 22:33Speaker 5: He is a man.
- 22:35Speaker 6: Who does what is right.
- 22:37Speaker 3: A brave man. A true man.
- 22:40Speaker 7: It is his destiny to save the Golden Child. He
- 22:46Speaker 7: is the Chosen One.
- 22:50Speaker 11: If I'm the chosen one, how come I'm freezing while
- 22:53Speaker 11: you're sitting in.
- 22:54Speaker 3: A war movie theater? I'm going back to L.A.
- 22:56Speaker 9: And kicking somebody's behind. This isn't supposed to be happening
- 22:59Speaker 9: to me. Chosen one, my behind. Why can't somebody choose
- 23:03Speaker 9: me to go to the Bahamas?
- 23:05Speaker 3: Hawaii is nice.
- 23:07Speaker 9: You could have sent me to Vegas.
- 23:09Speaker 3: The chosen one.
- 23:13Speaker 2: I love it.
- 23:15Speaker 9: Right?
- 23:16Speaker 3: It describes the whole movie and the plot line of
- 23:19Speaker 3: the film and And he breaks the fourth wall, which
- 23:21Speaker 3: I thought was great.
- 23:23Speaker 12: Mm-hmm.
- 23:24Speaker 2: But it's also like when it starts the beginning and
- 23:28Speaker 2: all the serious stuff, like who wouldn't want to watch
- 23:31Speaker 2: that movie?
- 23:33Speaker 3: Right. Yeah.
- 23:35Speaker 2: It's so mysterious. You want to see more and then
- 23:39Speaker 2: it kicks in with the comedy. I mean, geez, what
- 23:41Speaker 2: else can you ask for?
- 23:42Speaker 3: Definitely grasp your attention immediately, right?
- 23:45Speaker 10: Mm-hmm.
- 23:47Speaker 3: Turns out that's not Tibet. That's Mammoth Lakes, California. But
- 23:51Speaker 3: strangely enough, they did a great job of that, too.
- 23:53Speaker 6: Mm-hmm. Well, I do want to point out, this is
- 23:57Speaker 6: obviously one of my notes, but the idea of the
- 23:59Speaker 6: golden child right off the bat, this is an actual
- 24:03Speaker 6: Buddhist idea, but it is also a theosophical idea. So
- 24:08Speaker 6: I just want to be very clear that when I'm
- 24:10Speaker 6: going to discuss it, I'm going to refer to actual
- 24:12Speaker 6: Buddhist ideas, but I'm aware of the theosophical ideas as well.
- 24:16Speaker 6: And I'm not saying it's bad because it's theosophical. I
- 24:19Speaker 6: think we're way... We're all kind of past that. We
- 24:23Speaker 6: can look at things for the values or truth that
- 24:27Speaker 6: they may hold or the falsehood.
- 24:31Speaker 3: Sure, sure. But obviously a lot of this falls around
- 24:34Speaker 3: the ideas of Tibetan Buddhism as the main character here,
- 24:39Speaker 3: Axel Foley. They call him something else in this film,
- 24:43Speaker 3: but it's clearly Axel Foley.
- 24:46Speaker 2: Chandler Darrell.
- 24:48Speaker 4: Yeah, Chandler J.
- 24:48Speaker 6: Old, right?
- 24:49Speaker 3: Which is a nod, I guess, to the story that
- 24:51Speaker 3: this is kind of based off of, this crime noir
- 24:55Speaker 3: story that involves Tibet. So I guess he went through
- 24:58Speaker 3: some rewrites in Hollywood, but he ended up including, which
- 25:01Speaker 3: I think is interesting because it didn't initially include a
- 25:04Speaker 3: satanic cult. That was something they added on along the way.
- 25:07Speaker 2: Well, this is what's interesting to me. And when I
- 25:11Speaker 2: cover movies, I usually try to like go from the
- 25:14Speaker 2: opening scene all the way through the body of the
- 25:16Speaker 2: movie to the title or the end sequence, whatever.
- 25:20Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 25:22Speaker 2: And so my first note is that it opens up
- 25:25Speaker 2: in Tibet and. And the significance of Tibet, I feel
- 25:30Speaker 2: like it's kind of obvious just because there have been
- 25:33Speaker 2: so many occultists who were inspired or channeled beings that
- 25:38Speaker 2: were from Tibet, including Madame Blavatsky, Alistair Crowley, Alice Bailey.
- 25:45Speaker 2: They all said that they channeled beings, Tibetan beings. And
- 25:52Speaker 2: there was even an expedition, Hitler, actually put together this
- 25:58Speaker 2: expedition and it was like some of the best soldiers
- 26:02Speaker 2: he had and he sent them to Tibet. And that's
- 26:06Speaker 2: where they brought back the sigil or symbol of the
- 26:10Speaker 2: swastika and they hijacked it to do what they did
- 26:14Speaker 2: with it. But so Hitler, Madame Blavatsky, Alistair Crowley and
- 26:19Speaker 2: Alice Bailey all had an obsession with Tibet and.
- 26:23Speaker 4: Don't forget the Beatles, Richard Gere, Brad Pitt.
- 26:26Speaker 8: There you go.
- 26:27Speaker 3: The list goes on, right? The list goes on.
- 26:30Speaker 2: Yes.
- 26:30Speaker 3: Richard Gere and his gerbils had a strange fascination with Tibet.
- 26:35Speaker 6: Well, I'll add this because obviously I practice Vajrayana. So
- 26:43Speaker 6: I will say it's sorcery. I mean, like if you're
- 26:46Speaker 6: interested in magic, it's a really great system. And it
- 26:49Speaker 6: combines Buddhist, but it's all Buddhist ideas. So you're not
- 26:53Speaker 6: really doing that. Right. So you're using your mind. You're
- 26:57Speaker 6: using the conceptual ideas of sorcery, especially like that. You know, every,
- 27:02Speaker 6: we always laugh. I always tease like the Dharma practitioners
- 27:06Speaker 6: who aren't Asian because obviously I'm half half. So we
- 27:09Speaker 6: call them Westoids. So I'm just going to use that
- 27:11Speaker 6: really quickly, but it's not in a pejorative. Sounds like it, bro.
- 27:15Speaker 3: What are you talking about? It's not a pejorative.
- 27:18Speaker 6: Well, it's because I'm a Westoid too, really, right? Because like,
- 27:21Speaker 6: you know.
- 27:23Speaker 3: You're a self-identified Westoid. It just sounds, it sounds like
- 27:27Speaker 3: a negative, you know, some sort of negative derogatory statement, right?
- 27:30Speaker 3: You're a Westoid.
- 27:31Speaker 6: But I think that we, I think that I like
- 27:34Speaker 6: the idea that it could be like, you could say
- 27:36Speaker 6: the word is like just a vessel that can contain
- 27:40Speaker 6: like any idea that we want. So I'm like being
- 27:42Speaker 6: very discordian, I guess, by self-referentially using it.
- 27:46Speaker 4: I'm not going to lie to you, Jen.
- 27:47Speaker 3: You could convince me you just made that word up.
- 27:49Speaker 4: I have no idea.
- 27:50Speaker 3: I have the first time I've ever heard it.
- 27:52Speaker 6: It's very online. It's very like probably.
- 27:55Speaker 9: Is it Kino?
- 27:57Speaker 6: It isn't kino kino it definitely.
- 27:59Speaker 3: Got me that word too recently i still not i
- 28:01Speaker 3: haven't really grasped the concept that's why i keep asking
- 28:03Speaker 3: is that kino.
- 28:04Speaker 6: You know so you know you always say it's like
- 28:06Speaker 6: it's true kino that's the real that's the real way
- 28:09Speaker 6: to do it and if you're really cool like me
- 28:11Speaker 6: you do the u you do with a v so
- 28:14Speaker 6: you do like true kino but it's all lowercase and
- 28:17Speaker 6: then you do like k-o-k-i-n-o.
- 28:20Speaker 3: I appreciate it, but I'm not sure if I'm any
- 28:22Speaker 3: closer to understanding what is or is not key now.
- 28:25Speaker 3: So I probably can continue to ask these questions. Is
- 28:27Speaker 3: that key now?
- 28:29Speaker 6: It just means, is it really aesthetic? Is it beautiful?
- 28:32Speaker 6: Is it like capturing? a kind of the light has
- 28:36Speaker 6: to be captured in a specific way. You could almost
- 28:38Speaker 6: say a holistic way. There's like filtered through like layers
- 28:42Speaker 6: of maybe there are gradients of color on the screen.
- 28:45Speaker 6: So it's like anything that's really beautiful. Like a sunset
- 28:48Speaker 6: can be very key. Now that doesn't have to be
- 28:50Speaker 6: on screen.
- 28:50Speaker 3: I think it might be tracking. I have a very
- 28:53Speaker 3: keynote scene on deck here for us in a few
- 28:55Speaker 3: minutes from the film. I think, I think when I
- 28:57Speaker 3: bring it up, I think you'll know what I'm talking about.
- 29:01Speaker 3: So this, the film goes into bed, right? So, We
- 29:04Speaker 3: already automatically, right off the start of the film, we
- 29:07Speaker 3: see this Tibetan Buddhism is the root of this story
- 29:12Speaker 3: with this young child, right? He's hanging out in the temple, right?
- 29:19Speaker 3: When he gets, what do we call it, kidnapped or Buddha-napped?
- 29:23Speaker 4: What are we calling this?
- 29:24Speaker 2: Yeah, kidnapped.
- 29:26Speaker 4: Buddha-napped? They send out a Buddha alert on everyone's cell phones?
- 29:29Speaker 5: Instead of an Amber Alert.
- 29:32Speaker 2: Golden-napped?
- 29:36Speaker 4: Am I getting my deities mixed up, Jen? Is it
- 29:39Speaker 4: not a Buddha? alert?
- 29:41Speaker 6: You could say he's like a toku. Which toku is
- 29:46Speaker 6: like a reincarnated llama. It's like a llama from a
- 29:50Speaker 6: previous rebirth or a saint.
- 29:53Speaker 5: Or a mahasiddha.
- 29:55Speaker 6: Or an accomplished master. And so not all schools of
- 29:59Speaker 6: Tibetan Buddhism believe in it, but this film in particular
- 30:02Speaker 6: is very syncretic. Now, it is really important to note
- 30:05Speaker 6: that the consultant, Ken MacLeod, wrote, uh, like it's famous
- 30:10Speaker 6: in Vajrayana circles. So he wrote, um, the magic of Vajrayana.
- 30:14Speaker 6: So he, he gets it. He even says like, I
- 30:17Speaker 6: have the wisdom and understanding, like he, that's the exact
- 30:20Speaker 6: words he uses. So he gets it. Like, he's like,
- 30:23Speaker 6: he's in that clear view, whatever he calls it, like
- 30:26Speaker 6: a lot of the time anyway. So he, he did
- 30:29Speaker 6: not train in the specific school that, um, practices, excuse me, sorry,
- 30:37Speaker 6: that believes in Tokus, but obviously it's drawing from multiple
- 30:41Speaker 6: different schools of Buddhism. So you can see this in
- 30:43Speaker 6: the first scene with the yellow hats. So this is
- 30:46Speaker 6: the majority sect. This is the Galugpa school. So when
- 30:50Speaker 6: they're wearing the yellow, tall yellow hats, that signifies usually
- 30:54Speaker 6: what school they belong to. And it's also interesting to
- 30:58Speaker 6: note that the yellow hat shamans are also a faction
- 31:03Speaker 6: of shamans in Mongolia. So a lot of this has
- 31:06Speaker 6: like Mongolian kind of like central, it's very central Asian,
- 31:10Speaker 6: the whole thing. It's not just Tibetan, like Tibet used
- 31:13Speaker 6: to be a huge empire, right, at one time. So
- 31:16Speaker 6: that's why it's kind of like, it was a large land,
- 31:20Speaker 6: like that range really from Mongolia, Manchuria, well into almost
- 31:27Speaker 6: western uh asia so is.
- 31:30Speaker 3: This uh yellow hats you speak of having to do
- 31:32Speaker 3: with the yellow dragons well it is interesting the gang
- 31:36Speaker 3: we see later in the film.
- 31:38Speaker 6: It certainly could have a draconian.
- 31:41Speaker 4: You know tommy tongs runs the place down at the.
- 31:44Speaker 6: Restaurant well there's is clearly like an overlap i think
- 31:49Speaker 6: i think there's like a motif like dragons are not
- 31:52Speaker 6: they're they're they're usually auspicious meaning like lucky so they're
- 31:56Speaker 6: not inauspicious but they are a symbol of like power
- 31:58Speaker 6: and strength and dragons yeah dragons.
- 32:01Speaker 3: And so we got a lot of dragons here tonight
- 32:03Speaker 3: don't we a lot of nagas for sure we even
- 32:07Speaker 3: have a half dragon half lady.
- 32:09Speaker 2: Right, yeah. There is one. Well, you know what it
- 32:14Speaker 2: reminded me of actually just hearing Jen talk about it
- 32:17Speaker 2: a little bit. I'm like halfway retarded when it comes
- 32:24Speaker 2: to like anything other than just like the basics of
- 32:29Speaker 2: like Buddhism, this, that. Like I've studied like the surface
- 32:32Speaker 2: level of stuff.
- 32:33Speaker 5: But what it.
- 32:33Speaker 2: Reminded me of was, did you ever watch Avatar The
- 32:37Speaker 2: Last Airbender? And it's like this kid that keeps getting
- 32:41Speaker 2: reincarnated and he's got like all the power and they
- 32:45Speaker 2: have to train him and he's born every like hundred
- 32:48Speaker 2: years or something like that. It reminded me a lot
- 32:51Speaker 2: of the story of the golden child for anybody else
- 32:54Speaker 2: who watched that show. I liked it when I, it
- 32:56Speaker 2: was like a nineties Nickelodeon thing.
- 32:58Speaker 6: Yeah. I'm doing a series on that right now, Julia.
- 33:02Speaker 2: Oh really?
- 33:03Speaker 7: Yeah.
- 33:06Speaker 6: But yeah, that is what he is. That's a very
- 33:08Speaker 6: good understanding of like.
- 33:10Speaker 4: He's an airbender?
- 33:11Speaker 6: He's like a rebirth of someone who had, you could say,
- 33:15Speaker 6: quote unquote, magical powers. We would call them like cities
- 33:19Speaker 6: or like spiritual accomplishments more than magic powers. And so
- 33:24Speaker 6: he's reincarnated into a golden child. So that's worth exploring.
- 33:28Speaker 6: But I'll let you decide where you want to take it, JJ.
- 33:31Speaker 6: But I'm ready with that when you want to go there.
- 33:34Speaker 3: Yeah we'll get back for sure i appreciate that jim
- 33:36Speaker 3: we'll get back to tibet in chronological order from the
- 33:38Speaker 3: film i think because they they kidnap we don't really
- 33:40Speaker 3: understand who this child is the golden child right we
- 33:44Speaker 3: just see him we go there it starts off in
- 33:46Speaker 3: tibet like you point out julia and then this kid
- 33:48Speaker 3: gets kid he gets uh bootenapped and then uh next
- 33:52Speaker 3: thing you know he's in los angeles.
- 33:57Speaker 2: And that's where we get introduced to chandler gerald who
- 34:02Speaker 2: is eddie murphy yeah well i do have a just
- 34:09Speaker 2: i like to point out the some of the funniest
- 34:11Speaker 2: parts in the movie as we go along and the
- 34:14Speaker 2: opening of uh you know it shows like the hollywood
- 34:18Speaker 2: sign and you know like okay we're no longer in
- 34:20Speaker 2: tibet this is the transition now we're in hollywood and
- 34:24Speaker 2: it just shows him walking down the street and he
- 34:26Speaker 2: comes up behind a guy reading chunky asses at the.
- 34:32Speaker 5: Magazine yes.
- 34:35Speaker 3: We don't have those anymore, do we? The old newsstands, right?
- 34:37Speaker 3: Those things are.
- 34:38Speaker 2: From the past. I've always thought that was one of
- 34:42Speaker 2: the funniest parts of the movie. He's like, ass pie. Right?
- 34:47Speaker 4: He breaks the guy, runs him out of there.
- 34:52Speaker 5: I was like, yo, when I watched it recently, I
- 34:54Speaker 5: was like, I don't remember that.
- 34:57Speaker 2: Chunky asses?
- 34:58Speaker 5: Yeah, I didn't remember that.
- 35:02Speaker 2: Because this is the moment where we first meet Chandler Jarrell,
- 35:07Speaker 2: I have in my notes here, I looked at all
- 35:10Speaker 2: the names, but this is the only name that kind
- 35:13Speaker 2: of stood out to me. Chandler, that name means candle maker.
- 35:20Speaker 2: So I don't know if that's significant, but maybe. But
- 35:23Speaker 2: his last name, Jarrell, means spear ruler or rule by
- 35:29Speaker 2: the spear. So we have two different things that kind
- 35:33Speaker 2: of make sense for why his name might be Chandler Jarrell.
- 35:37Speaker 2: Because he's like the chosen one. Maybe he's like the
- 35:40Speaker 2: light in the dark place. He's, you know, the candle.
- 35:44Speaker 2: And then he's the spear ruler. And then we see
- 35:48Speaker 2: the spear later on in the movie. But yeah, I think,
- 35:52Speaker 2: you know, even down to the names, you can kind
- 35:56Speaker 2: of pull cool stuff.
- 35:57Speaker 5: Out of that.
- 36:00Speaker 6: So to piggyback or to riff, I'll call it riffing.
- 36:03Speaker 4: Riff away, friend.
- 36:05Speaker 6: But it was a great point. And so the spear
- 36:08Speaker 6: wielding thing is really interesting because I also noted that.
- 36:11Speaker 6: And because that is the golden child, especially in theosophy.
- 36:15Speaker 6: So the golden child is based off of a Puranic figure.
- 36:19Speaker 6: So when I'm saying Puranas, that's a kind of Hindu figure.
- 36:23Speaker 6: scripture that was written between about the 1st century AD
- 36:28Speaker 6: till about the 10th century CE. So these aren't the Vedas,
- 36:33Speaker 6: but this is what modern Hinduism really is based on.
- 36:37Speaker 6: So what people call Hinduism now, it's not really Vedic.
- 36:41Speaker 6: It's really based on Puranas, which is fine. Nothing wrong
- 36:44Speaker 6: with that. So There's Shiva. So everybody knows Shiva. He's blue.
- 36:50Speaker 6: He's ferocious. He has three lines on his forehead. They
- 36:54Speaker 6: worship him usually with a lingam, meaning like it's kind
- 36:57Speaker 6: of a phallic stone. Anyways, he has a son with
- 37:01Speaker 6: his wife, whose name is Shakti sometimes. And they have
- 37:04Speaker 6: a son named Kumara, which literally means the sun. So
- 37:08Speaker 6: he wields a spear in his right hand. Now, the
- 37:12Speaker 6: reason why he does this is very important because he
- 37:15Speaker 6: throws away the left-hand techs into sort of the primordial
- 37:20Speaker 6: water where they get swallowed by a giant whale. So
- 37:25Speaker 6: there's an idea here that the Kumara, so a person
- 37:30Speaker 6: who is thus reborn, but it's really an avatar of
- 37:34Speaker 6: this deity, can retrieve these left-hand path texts, thus unifying, synthesizing,
- 37:40Speaker 6: you could say the world tree or the universe or
- 37:44Speaker 6: conceptual mind with like non-conceptual thinking. Like it's like a
- 37:48Speaker 6: theosophical kind of like Christ consciousness sort of idea. Like
- 37:53Speaker 6: they're talking about it, like it could be literal, but
- 37:55Speaker 6: then there's also an idea that it could also be
- 37:57Speaker 6: maybe just a process of consciousness.
- 38:01Speaker 3: Sure, sure. What's this theosophical stuff you guys keep coming on?
- 38:07Speaker 3: I saw you shake your head, Nick. What's all this
- 38:09Speaker 3: business about?
- 38:11Speaker 5: I just thought that was interesting, getting into narcissism.
- 38:14Speaker 4: Yeah? What do you think is interesting about that?
- 38:16Speaker 5: I was thinking about covering that myself recently.
- 38:19Speaker 9: Oh.
- 38:20Speaker 3: What do you think about that's interesting relative to the
- 38:23Speaker 3: story here, the narrative of the tales of the golden child?
- 38:28Speaker 3: The occult understanding of these things, right? Is this concept
- 38:32Speaker 3: of a golden child, is that in the Theosophical folklore
- 38:37Speaker 3: or literature?
- 38:38Speaker 4: What are we talking here?
- 38:40Speaker 5: Well, this stuff is, I would think, theosophy.
- 38:43Speaker 4: Is this Kino, Jen?
- 38:45Speaker 6: Well, it's definitely in theosophy. Like, it's Sheik Blavatsky, definitely.
- 38:50Speaker 6: Alice Bailey definitely talks about it. Like, Nick Su.
- 38:52Speaker 4: The Golden Child.
- 38:53Speaker 6: Yeah, and it's a Gnostic idea, too. It's the Seth
- 38:56Speaker 6: or the Adam. Although, in this case, it's really the
- 38:58Speaker 6: Seth because Seth is the sun, right? So this is
- 39:01Speaker 6: like a child, so they can't be generative, meaning that
- 39:05Speaker 6: like a father is a fully masculine force, he's generative.
- 39:09Speaker 6: But a son isn't necessarily generative depending on their age.
- 39:13Speaker 6: So that's why they call it a child. So, I mean,
- 39:18Speaker 6: when you guys have covered all like the, you know,
- 39:21Speaker 6: we always talk about archetypes and how it's so important
- 39:24Speaker 6: in magic that people embody certain traits while a child
- 39:27Speaker 6: can be both male and female in a way. that's
- 39:31Speaker 6: hermetic by themselves because they're non-generative because they're a child.
- 39:35Speaker 6: So it's kind of like the perfect vessel. if you
- 39:38Speaker 6: want to think of it in a really theosophical way,
- 39:40Speaker 6: the golden vessel is like, if you look at Catholic images,
- 39:43Speaker 6: I've talked to Nick about this a million times, but
- 39:45Speaker 6: like the, the sacred heart images, I've talked to you
- 39:49Speaker 6: JJ a million times about this, but the sacred heart
- 39:51Speaker 6: image is the perfect idea of it. It's the golden heart.
- 39:54Speaker 6: So that's the golden vessel, the golden child and the Kumara.
- 39:59Speaker 6: So the idea is, is that you have.
- 40:01Speaker 4: We're talking like a Rosicrucian heart. Is that what we're
- 40:03Speaker 4: calling the rosy heart?
- 40:03Speaker 6: It's very similar. It's all very interrelated. Like there's a,
- 40:08Speaker 6: I think there's deep connections to all these things. I mean,
- 40:11Speaker 6: I personally look at everything more axial. I don't like
- 40:14Speaker 6: the word perennial, but sometimes people understand what I'm talking
- 40:19Speaker 6: about when I call it that. So, yeah, I think
- 40:22Speaker 6: they're all interrelated, and I think Theosophy's lifting, like, a
- 40:25Speaker 6: superficial layer, and they're making connections. I don't all agree
- 40:28Speaker 6: with them, but I don't fully discard it either, because
- 40:31Speaker 6: I think that they're also talking about something really interesting
- 40:34Speaker 6: and something also, they are talking about, like, Gnostic ideas,
- 40:37Speaker 6: but they're also Christian ideas and you know, they go
- 40:40Speaker 6: beyond that. There's obviously, this whole film is about Tantra,
- 40:44Speaker 6: but you could read it in a very sort of
- 40:47Speaker 6: like theosophical Buddhist kind of way, like a sort of
- 40:50Speaker 6: mixture of the two. And that would totally make sense too.
- 40:54Speaker 6: And because they, all of them see this kind of
- 40:58Speaker 6: backdrop as very similar. And obviously theosophy lays like a
- 41:03Speaker 6: kind of narrative groundwork for them to build off of. Now,
- 41:06Speaker 6: Ken McLeod was one of the, who is the consultant
- 41:09Speaker 6: for this film, very famous Dharma author.
- 41:12Speaker 4: I like him already.
- 41:13Speaker 3: He's a Scots-Irishman.
- 41:15Speaker 5: He is.
- 41:15Speaker 6: He even has an accent, JJ. But he was one
- 41:22Speaker 6: of the last people to be trained in the pre-modern
- 41:26Speaker 6: Tibetan way. So he was like, there aren't very many
- 41:30Speaker 6: teachers that were trained like that, like before the advent
- 41:34Speaker 6: of like cell phones, like they, these, the, his teacher
- 41:37Speaker 6: didn't even know what those things really were.
- 41:40Speaker 3: They were totally more of a, uh, genuine source instead
- 41:44Speaker 3: of a kind of, uh, the bastardization of some of
- 41:47Speaker 3: the concepts, I suppose.
- 41:48Speaker 6: Right.
- 41:49Speaker 3: Right.
- 41:49Speaker 6: So he is drawing from like a real layer. Now he,
- 41:53Speaker 6: as most Tibetan Buddhists are open to looking at seeds
- 41:57Speaker 6: and other places, but it requires a high degree of discernment,
- 42:03Speaker 6: just like it would in a holistic way. So you,
- 42:06Speaker 6: the whole idea is like rectify the words as they are,
- 42:09Speaker 6: or as you make them. And so I'm saying words
- 42:13Speaker 6: and I know that's kind of meta, but, the words
- 42:16Speaker 6: are really important. And so this comes up a lot
- 42:18Speaker 6: in the film, obviously, because you see like the sigils,
- 42:21Speaker 6: the Tibetan seed syllables, you see Sanskrit writing covering the walls.
- 42:25Speaker 6: Obviously this is like, this is a big part of
- 42:28Speaker 6: Buddhist magic is the word. So you can even hear
- 42:31Speaker 6: right away. There's even a relationship with Christianity. So there's no,
- 42:35Speaker 6: there's really, there's something similar between all the different kinds
- 42:38Speaker 6: of magic because that's really all it is.
- 42:41Speaker 3: Sure. No, I have a couple scenes with some of
- 42:43Speaker 3: the sigils you're talking about. We can see some of
- 42:46Speaker 3: that stuff. I know what you mean, Julie, about the
- 42:48Speaker 3: names and stuff. I definitely agree with you. One of
- 42:51Speaker 3: the weird names in this film, though, is the villain here,
- 42:55Speaker 3: the demon devil fellow, old Sardo Noomsa, right?
- 42:59Speaker 2: Sardo Noomsa.
- 43:02Speaker 3: Does that name have any Gnostic meanings in this Golden
- 43:04Speaker 3: Child references, Nick? What do you make of the name
- 43:06Speaker 3: Sardo Noomsa?
- 43:10Speaker 5: One thing I did look up is specifically with that
- 43:13Speaker 5: name is that his name and Chandler Jarrell both equal
- 43:19Speaker 5: the same number. Both equal 141 in English. They both equal.
- 43:25Speaker 3: Oh, that's interesting.
- 43:27Speaker 5: Yeah, I thought that was.
- 43:27Speaker 2: That is interesting.
- 43:30Speaker 3: Some deep gematria there in comparison, because that's a weird
- 43:33Speaker 3: ass name, right?
- 43:33Speaker 4: Sardo Noomsa.
- 43:36Speaker 5: Real quick, just to even get some of my stuff out.
- 43:40Speaker 3: Sure, knock it out, bud.
- 43:42Speaker 5: There's just certain things that got brought up that I
- 43:44Speaker 5: want to try to cover. When you mentioned the, I guess, theosophy,
- 43:50Speaker 5: I started... One of the things, the reason for that
- 43:52Speaker 5: that piqued my interest is because I do think this
- 43:55Speaker 5: movie has Kabbalistic attributes to it. And I do think
- 44:00Speaker 5: if you're into that, if you're into the Hamada Kabbalah,
- 44:04Speaker 5: especially like Put it this way, if you're into the
- 44:06Speaker 5: Thalema or kind of like looking at the way Crowley
- 44:10Speaker 5: would do stuff, you'll pull from different areas. So it's
- 44:13Speaker 5: like you could use Buddhism as an image because you
- 44:18Speaker 5: can still convey the message with the way things match
- 44:21Speaker 5: up on the tree of life, you know, hermetically and Kabbalistically.
- 44:25Speaker 5: So I do think like you could, you know, be,
- 44:30Speaker 5: you could be using the tree of life and using
- 44:31Speaker 5: Norse gods to tell the story. or Greek gods to
- 44:35Speaker 5: tell the story.
- 44:35Speaker 3: Sure.
- 44:36Speaker 5: It doesn't matter.
- 44:37Speaker 2: I put that in my notes too, Nick. I think
- 44:40Speaker 2: the exact same thing.
- 44:42Speaker 3: It's very formulaic is what you're saying.
- 44:44Speaker 5: Yeah, and I do think it might be.
- 44:45Speaker 3: I like these.
- 44:45Speaker 4: Hollywood films of today starring Keanu Reeves.
- 44:48Speaker 5: Thelemic inspired possibly itself like the movie.
- 44:53Speaker 3: This movie is.
- 44:54Speaker 5: Yeah, and one of the reasons why I wanted to
- 44:57Speaker 5: even mention that You had mentioned it. Jin had mentioned
- 45:00Speaker 5: it earlier, and I was like, fuck it. Maybe I
- 45:02Speaker 5: should have just got my Gematria stuff off at the
- 45:04Speaker 5: beginning because sometimes it can get boring. But he called
- 45:07Speaker 5: me Mr. 93 and then 33. Golden Child in English
- 45:11Speaker 5: equals 93. It also matches Saturn, Vishnu, Moonshine.
- 45:18Speaker 4: That's kind of weird, right?
- 45:19Speaker 5: Yeah, equals Kash Patel. I found this interesting. I tried
- 45:23Speaker 5: telling people this. This is why people were so obsessed
- 45:25Speaker 5: with it. Hawk Tua also equals 93. Does it really?
- 45:32Speaker 3: Yeah. I believe she's been hawked to it out of
- 45:35Speaker 3: existence of society.
- 45:36Speaker 5: And golden child in Hebrew equals 170. I found that interesting.
- 45:41Speaker 5: You still get a 17 and then a 93 in
- 45:43Speaker 5: a sense. And that does equal moon, lamb of God,
- 45:46Speaker 5: and hand of God in April. I do find that
- 45:49Speaker 5: interesting going with golden child. When it comes to.
- 45:54Speaker 4: What's the significance there with April and the golden child?
- 45:57Speaker 5: Well, the golden child, in my opinion, even when it
- 46:00Speaker 5: comes to Kabbalah, the sphere of Tiferet matches gold. That's
- 46:05Speaker 5: related with the sun. And the specific image that you
- 46:08Speaker 5: can even use for that is a child.
- 46:10Speaker 3: I was going to ask you about images because what's
- 46:13Speaker 3: going on here, right? I didn't want to interrupt you,
- 46:15Speaker 3: but I feel like there's a lot going on with
- 46:17Speaker 3: this image.
- 46:18Speaker 2: I said the same thing.
- 46:20Speaker 6: It's really interesting, JJ, because... You can say that throughout
- 46:25Speaker 6: the film, they also refer to Eddie Murphy as the
- 46:27Speaker 6: chosen one. So who really is the golden child? Like
- 46:31Speaker 6: who really is the golden child? Is it just like
- 46:34Speaker 6: a projection outwards? Is that what that little Asian kid
- 46:37Speaker 6: who is Filipino, by the way, not even Tibetan, but.
- 46:41Speaker 4: And not a boy, that's definitely.
- 46:43Speaker 3: A girl, not a trans.
- 46:45Speaker 6: Well, it's very hermetic.
- 46:46Speaker 5: Allegedly not a trans.
- 46:48Speaker 6: It feels, it almost, to me, as someone who's interested in, like,
- 46:52Speaker 6: Hermetic Kabbalah, it does feel like a deliberate choice. A
- 46:57Speaker 6: girl who appears as a boy.
- 46:58Speaker 4: Oh, oh, I see now. I wasn't even thinking of that.
- 47:02Speaker 4: Nick's checking his head.
- 47:04Speaker 3: What do y'all got on that?
- 47:05Speaker 5: That'd be very Hoad-like. I mean, even the old man
- 47:10Speaker 5: with the, you know, wiping the booger on his shit,
- 47:12Speaker 5: when he was outside fucking with the dude, I think,
- 47:14Speaker 5: was it at one point, was he wearing, like, orange
- 47:16Speaker 5: at some point? that's even like i want.
- 47:19Speaker 4: To watch it i got that clip right here you
- 47:20Speaker 4: want to watch i.
- 47:20Speaker 5: Would even say that's kind of like where a jokester
- 47:22Speaker 5: would land too as well on hood.
- 47:24Speaker 3: He's a trickster character.
- 47:25Speaker 5: Yeah well they've already he's the magician he's gone there
- 47:28Speaker 5: and come back so he kind of realizes like the
- 47:30Speaker 5: world is a joke to a.
- 47:31Speaker 3: Sense this is the first this is the first time
- 47:34Speaker 3: old axel axel foley meets uh this old wizard man
- 47:38Speaker 3: victor wong but he don't you're right he does have
- 47:40Speaker 3: some orange in here i think he's got some red
- 47:42Speaker 3: but It's kind of the same color as.
- 47:44Speaker 4: I was thinking of this background of this image, right?
- 47:47Speaker 5: And that would all be the left pillar, too. That
- 47:49Speaker 5: would be orange, black, and red.
- 47:52Speaker 3: Let's watch this quick clip of when these two meet
- 47:55Speaker 3: in the film. It's quite comical.
- 47:59Speaker 9: Hey, wait a second.
- 47:59Speaker 3: You took $ 100.
- 48:00Speaker 9: You took the $ 100.
- 48:01Speaker 11: No, that's $ 1. See, $ 1 for you. See the George Washington?
- 48:07Speaker 11: That's Benjamin Franklin. That's not happening. You got the wrong money.
- 48:16Speaker 11: Can I have my money back? And you gave me
- 48:21Speaker 11: the wrong necklace, too.
- 48:22Speaker 10: You're breaking my hot ass wipe.
- 48:26Speaker 9: Well, you speak English just fine.
- 48:28Speaker 8: So do you, so what of it?
- 48:31Speaker 9: Hey, listen, man. Give me my hundred back. Take this
- 48:33Speaker 9: dollar and give me the right one.
- 48:35Speaker 6: Monkey breath, puke face, eater of turtle slime.
- 48:41Speaker 9: Okay, tell you what, just give me my shit, you
- 48:43Speaker 9: take your shit. Okay, you slick shithead.
- 48:49Speaker 4: That Victor Wong, he's a character.
- 48:51Speaker 5: At some point when he's wearing his hat, I'm pretty
- 48:55Speaker 5: sure he's an orange. Like an orange.
- 48:57Speaker 3: Yeah, maybe in this side of the temple, I have
- 48:59Speaker 3: that clip as well. He turns into a bird there, right? Which,
- 49:01Speaker 3: I don't know all this bird stuff with occultism or not,
- 49:04Speaker 3: or any esoteric understandings of this, but... There's a bird
- 49:07Speaker 3: guide in this film and then that dude turns into
- 49:09Speaker 3: a bird at one point. So I thought that was
- 49:11Speaker 3: kind of strange.
- 49:12Speaker 2: The first miracle, though, that he performs at the very
- 49:16Speaker 2: beginning of the movie is resurrecting the dead. parrot. But
- 49:20Speaker 2: it's that parrot, the same parrot that follows him throughout
- 49:25Speaker 2: the movie that the Wong guy transforms into. So he's
- 49:30Speaker 2: actually the parrot from the beginning of the movie. That's right. Yeah,
- 49:35Speaker 2: if you notice, like, right as they kidnap him, that
- 49:38Speaker 2: parrot flies out the door, and then it follows him
- 49:41Speaker 2: throughout the movie, and then he turns into the little
- 49:45Speaker 2: Asian guy at the market, and that's the first time
- 49:48Speaker 2: you realize the parrot is actually this shaman guy, for
- 49:52Speaker 2: lack of a better term. But I was going to
- 49:55Speaker 2: say it's interesting that they chose a girl to play
- 49:58Speaker 2: a boy in this movie, or however you want to
- 50:02Speaker 2: think about it, because... And then Jen said that she
- 50:08Speaker 2: was Filipino and not even whatever, Tibetan or whatever he's
- 50:15Speaker 2: supposed to be. But M. Night Shyamalan did that same
- 50:20Speaker 2: shit when he did the live action version of Avatar
- 50:24Speaker 2: The Last Airbender because it was supposed to be an
- 50:26Speaker 2: Asian boy. And the cartoon is like an Asian cartoon.
- 50:33Speaker 2: i don't think it's japanese but it might be but
- 50:36Speaker 2: anyways he picked a white kid and um he also
- 50:40Speaker 2: changed the race of like all the different tribes and
- 50:44Speaker 2: like made one tribe uh like people from india and
- 50:49Speaker 2: he made another tribe like all caucasians and He basically
- 50:55Speaker 2: took the idea and he like switched it all up
- 50:58Speaker 2: and made it weird and people hated that because it
- 51:00Speaker 2: didn't follow the story like the cartoon. But I do
- 51:04Speaker 2: think it's interesting because it's like the same idea of
- 51:07Speaker 2: this last airbender, you know, the avatar and he's supposed
- 51:12Speaker 2: to be this and he took the character, made it
- 51:15Speaker 2: a white kid. and then changed all the other races
- 51:19Speaker 2: throughout the tribes. So I don't know, it could be
- 51:23Speaker 2: significant in some way.
- 51:24Speaker 10: Yeah.
- 51:26Speaker 4: Sounds like it, right?
- 51:28Speaker 6: Yeah, for sure. I want to, that's a great point, Julia.
- 51:32Speaker 6: I want to just pick you out or riff off
- 51:34Speaker 6: that and talk about the parrot for a moment. And
- 51:36Speaker 6: this is a really significant tantric kind of bird because
- 51:41Speaker 6: it is one of the, well, in tantra, at least
- 51:43Speaker 6: it's considered to be the only bird that can mimic
- 51:45Speaker 6: human speech, right? So it is the, if you want
- 51:49Speaker 6: to liken it to like a goddess that you can
- 51:51Speaker 6: then Google or look up an image of her, it's
- 51:54Speaker 6: called Matangi. Interestingly, the rap artist M.I.A. also had an
- 51:59Speaker 6: album called Matangi. So it is the goddess who is
- 52:03Speaker 6: very typhoratic. So there's another typhorotic element, actually, in the
- 52:07Speaker 6: Naga Kanya. So you guys were talking about before, the
- 52:10Speaker 6: snake woman or the snake princess. That's what she would be.
- 52:13Speaker 4: The dragon lady?
- 52:14Speaker 6: The dragon lady. She's a Naga Kanya. So this is
- 52:18Speaker 6: like a, this is a traditional like idea is that
- 52:22Speaker 6: a Naga Kanya can tell you is like a prophet
- 52:24Speaker 6: or a seer or like someone who has like, because
- 52:28Speaker 6: they're in both worlds. A Naga lives in the subtle world,
- 52:31Speaker 6: meaning like the spirit world, but a man lives or
- 52:34Speaker 6: a person lives in the human world and the animal world.
- 52:37Speaker 6: So she's like half and half. So she's like liminal.
- 52:40Speaker 6: So she's able to access maybe more spiritual knowledge.
- 52:45Speaker 3: Interesting.
- 52:45Speaker 4: What are your thoughts on this comment here?
- 52:47Speaker 3: We got Golden Child brings to mind the golden boy
- 52:50Speaker 3: and Jade Girl of Chinese myths, servants of the Jade
- 52:53Speaker 3: Emperor who were said to guide the good people to paradise.
- 52:56Speaker 6: This is a great, yeah, this is a really good comment.
- 53:00Speaker 6: I'm sorry, Jade Emperor. It's very Kino. Okay, so the
- 53:06Speaker 6: Buddhist idea is that they're the servants of Guan Yin.
- 53:10Speaker 6: So if you look at Taoist depictions, not Buddhist depictions,
- 53:13Speaker 6: but Taoist depictions of her, she'll be with the two children.
- 53:16Speaker 6: So the jade girl is obviously a stone of Natsok.
- 53:21Speaker 6: And then the golden boy, he is Tiferetic, but because
- 53:24Speaker 6: he's a child, he's, it's like Aeon of Horus shit. Like,
- 53:28Speaker 6: I mean, that's what, that's what it is. He's like, he's,
- 53:31Speaker 6: he's going on the path from Hode to the sun,
- 53:34Speaker 6: from Hode to Tiferet, basically.
- 53:37Speaker 3: Nice.
- 53:38Speaker 5: You know, since we're speaking Kabbalah real quick, I just,
- 53:41Speaker 5: I do want to twist in there, JJ. At some
- 53:45Speaker 5: point later on in the movie, this lady, Hinang, however
- 53:48Speaker 5: you say her name, She does have a green, I
- 53:51Speaker 5: don't know if it's jade, but she does have a
- 53:53Speaker 5: green necklace on at some point. And I do think, again,
- 53:57Speaker 5: because the child, I think, is Tiferet, I do think
- 54:00Speaker 5: that at some point, Eddie Murphy is playing Hode, and
- 54:05Speaker 5: I do think she's playing Netsuk. And I do think
- 54:07Speaker 5: you actually see, in a sense, throughout the movie, I
- 54:10Speaker 5: do think it's actually crossing the abyss and coming back.
- 54:14Speaker 5: And fighting the demons is part of it.
- 54:16Speaker 3: Of that story and greens associated with that the color
- 54:18Speaker 3: of green or the stone of jade or something.
- 54:21Speaker 5: Yeah well to show yeah she would be netsack which
- 54:23Speaker 5: would be the which would be a female green sphere
- 54:26Speaker 5: at the bottom of the tree right underneath the golden
- 54:28Speaker 5: child and then you have eddie murphy i think would
- 54:31Speaker 5: be the guy on the left the black pillar but
- 54:36Speaker 5: the orange guy you know the orange sphere you know
- 54:39Speaker 5: and i do think they i throughout the story i
- 54:41Speaker 5: think they you know go up the tree I think
- 54:44Speaker 5: you see a progression going up the tree. And I
- 54:46Speaker 5: do think, like, the parrot or whatever that bird is,
- 54:48Speaker 5: that rainbow bird, could possibly be the rainbow that emanates
- 54:52Speaker 5: from Netsok to Hode. There was that. And I also, like,
- 54:57Speaker 5: from my own experience, I had wondered if it is
- 54:59Speaker 5: a story of crossing the abyss and going up the
- 55:01Speaker 5: tree of life, could that be, like, the rainbow bridge
- 55:04Speaker 5: that you will witness before you blast off? That's so interesting.
- 55:09Speaker 8: That you're following that the whole way.
- 55:11Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
- 55:12Speaker 2: Yeah, it is a rainbow bird.
- 55:14Speaker 4: Very rainbowy.
- 55:15Speaker 8: Mm-hmm.
- 55:17Speaker 4: So we're talking dragon ladies.
- 55:19Speaker 3: We're talking all this Eastern mysticism stuff. I got a
- 55:22Speaker 3: clip relative to the film here. In fact, it is
- 55:25Speaker 3: indeed a clip from the film. And it describes all
- 55:29Speaker 3: these things. The golden child, the chosen ones, the dragon ladies.
- 55:33Speaker 4: And I'll bring that up for us right meow.
- 55:37Speaker 9: So if something happens to the kid, the whole world
- 55:38Speaker 9: goes to hell?
- 55:39Speaker 6: The world will become hell. Ah.
- 55:44Speaker 9: Not far from that now. Listen, who would want to
- 55:46Speaker 9: take the kid anyway?
- 55:47Speaker 6: Those who want evil rather than good.
- 55:55Speaker 9: Can you be a little bit more specific?
- 55:56Speaker 10: We do not know who took him.
- 55:59Speaker 11: Well, could you tell me why the people that took
- 56:01Speaker 11: him are trying to make him eat blood?
- 56:03Speaker 3: Nothing in this world will hurt him.
- 56:05Speaker 10: But if he were to pollute himself with anything impure,
- 56:10Speaker 10: he would become vulnerable.
- 56:13Speaker 9: Okay, so if they, if he eats the blood, they
- 56:18Speaker 9: could kill him?
- 56:20Speaker 11: Yes.
- 56:21Speaker 3: Oh.
- 56:21Speaker 2: Do you have any other questions?
- 56:27Speaker 9: As a matter of fact, I do. What are you
- 56:30Speaker 9: doing this weekend because your silhouette is kicking?
- 56:36Speaker 4: He plays a maracas too?
- 56:43Speaker 2: This is the chosen one.
- 56:46Speaker 3: Yes.
- 56:47Speaker 9: People certainly do put on a good show.
- 56:49Speaker 11: Where'd you find her at?
- 56:50Speaker 10: She's the librarian of the secret repository at Palkus Inn.
- 56:53Speaker 10: She was flown here to help us. She's over 300
- 56:56Speaker 10: years old.
- 56:58Speaker 9: How'd she manage that one?
- 56:59Speaker 10: One of her ancestors was raped by a dragon.
- 57:05Speaker 3: Does that happen a lot where you're from?
- 57:06Speaker 9: So.
- 57:11Speaker 3: 300-year-old dragon rapes aside, we got a good sight picture
- 57:19Speaker 3: there on what's going on with this narrative here with
- 57:21Speaker 3: the golden child and the chosen one and how old.
- 57:25Speaker 6: Even the number three, though, JJ. What's that with the
- 57:28Speaker 6: number three? Yeah, like when they're saying, like, 300, she's
- 57:32Speaker 6: 300 years old. Like, you could say that they're talking
- 57:35Speaker 6: about Binah, or you could also say that time is
- 57:38Speaker 6: always divided by three.
- 57:39Speaker 3: Is that a good lifespan for half dragon, half human?
- 57:44Speaker 3: What's the average lifespan there?
- 57:45Speaker 6: I mean, could be like a thousand years, could be...
- 57:49Speaker 6: I was going to say a thousand years.
- 57:52Speaker 3: I feel like they came in short with the 300,
- 57:54Speaker 3: so I feel like that might mean something, right? They
- 57:56Speaker 3: may have intentionally put it as 300 for some reason, right?
- 58:00Speaker 5: I had thought so, too.
- 58:01Speaker 4: Your dragon should be much older, in my opinion. I
- 58:03Speaker 4: want an older dragon.
- 58:05Speaker 5: Even with her, I look at her aspect as almost
- 58:09Speaker 5: being like... Jim would probably see this too, Bina. You
- 58:13Speaker 5: never really get to see her except for that one point.
- 58:15Speaker 5: And again, it's because she's more of like a voice
- 58:18Speaker 5: in your mind or an idea. She's not really an
- 58:20Speaker 5: actual image until you do see her. And then, in
- 58:24Speaker 5: my opinion, a lot of either sometimes some dragon or
- 58:28Speaker 5: maybe reptile-like symbolism. I even think some of the aliens
- 58:33Speaker 5: from the Alien movie is like part of the brain,
- 58:37Speaker 5: possibly the hippocampus. So, you know, then again, that would
- 58:43Speaker 5: be of the mind. You know, you're really just in
- 58:45Speaker 5: your thoughts. You're not like an actual thing yet. Again,
- 58:51Speaker 5: she's behind something. You're just hearing something. You don't have
- 58:55Speaker 5: nothing to attach that to. Except for that silhouette that
- 58:58Speaker 5: he found that he thought was banging or whatever he said.
- 59:01Speaker 2: Right. And she plays the maracas.
- 59:03Speaker 5: You're going to stop laying around naked all day watching
- 59:06Speaker 5: soap operas, smoking cigarettes or some shit he says that
- 59:09Speaker 5: to her.
- 59:09Speaker 9: Yes.
- 59:12Speaker 3: He gets upset. Then he gets all butthurt. Right.
- 59:14Speaker 4: Cause he doesn't want to be the chosen one.
- 59:15Speaker 3: Right. He goes to take it out on, on the
- 59:18Speaker 3: dragon lady amongst other folks. But this is just the
- 59:21Speaker 3: picture of her upper torso.
- 59:27Speaker 4: Wanted to say yeah.
- 59:28Speaker 2: We never get to we never get to see the dragon.
- 59:31Speaker 3: Tail well they show it right but it's like the
- 59:35Speaker 3: images that i can bring up no because he knocks
- 59:37Speaker 3: down the the thing at one point right yeah.
- 59:40Speaker 2: Right did we get to see the whole tail enough
- 59:43Speaker 2: of it it's pretty good oh right yeah yeah yeah
- 59:48Speaker 2: there we go.
- 59:49Speaker 3: Best image i can get it's kind of grainy but mm-hmm.
- 59:54Speaker 6: So she reveals, like, who she is. Like, that was
- 59:56Speaker 6: really good, Nick. I appreciate that.
- 59:58Speaker 4: So what's the dragon mean for Eastern stuff there, Jen?
- 1:00:02Speaker 6: Well, it goes with what Nick was saying about Benal and, like,
- 1:00:06Speaker 6: how it brings you seductive. So it, like, brings you
- 1:00:10Speaker 6: closer and then reveals what it really is behind the veil.
- 1:00:14Speaker 6: That's how you could maybe describe it. And so she
- 1:00:20Speaker 6: would say that she's the wife of Rahu, who is
- 1:00:24Speaker 6: the dragon of the eclipse. So there's a common misconception
- 1:00:28Speaker 6: on astrology Twitter that somehow that worshipping deities of Saturn
- 1:00:32Speaker 6: are related to Saturn, like Kali. Remove Rahu from a
- 1:00:37Speaker 6: birth chart, that's actually not true. I don't even know
- 1:00:40Speaker 6: who came up with that. It actually densifies his presence
- 1:00:43Speaker 6: in a chart. That's like a very basic tantric knowledge.
- 1:00:47Speaker 6: so I just want to point that out is that
- 1:00:49Speaker 6: where he's where he sort of so what I'm trying
- 1:00:53Speaker 6: to say is that at Saturn like if he has
- 1:00:55Speaker 6: a Saturnian sort of vibration he would actually appear it
- 1:01:01Speaker 6: would appear a lot more snake-like it would be very
- 1:01:03Speaker 6: serpentine but once you're.
- 1:01:05Speaker 4: Saying this is more snake stuff than dragon stuff kind.
- 1:01:07Speaker 6: Of yes that's exactly that's that's a really good way
- 1:01:10Speaker 6: to put it JJ is that you would see more
- 1:01:12Speaker 6: of a serpent and And then once you move away
- 1:01:15Speaker 6: from Banar, you would maybe it would make more sense
- 1:01:19Speaker 6: as more of a cosmic or mythical being.
- 1:01:20Speaker 3: Because she's got a rattler on the back end of
- 1:01:23Speaker 3: this thing.
- 1:01:24Speaker 2: I was going to say that. Mm hmm. She's got
- 1:01:29Speaker 2: that shaker deal on the back. But you know what?
- 1:01:34Speaker 2: I think that they use colors and, and weird stuff
- 1:01:38Speaker 2: like that, this entire movie. And I, I'm not, I'm
- 1:01:42Speaker 2: not good enough with occultism to tell you what it means,
- 1:01:46Speaker 2: but it's always like yellow dragon biker gang.
- 1:01:52Speaker 9: Yeah.
- 1:01:52Speaker 2: And then it's like, I, I feel like they mispronounce
- 1:01:59Speaker 2: things on purpose, and I don't know why that might
- 1:02:03Speaker 2: be significant. Like, the main bad guy, Sardo Numpspa, he
- 1:02:08Speaker 2: can't say... He can't say J's. He's like Mr. Yarrow.
- 1:02:15Speaker 5: That's right, he even corrects.
- 1:02:17Speaker 4: Them at first.
- 1:02:17Speaker 3: Yeah, but he.
- 1:02:21Speaker 2: He also can't, you know, it says, like, he's supposed
- 1:02:24Speaker 2: to find the cross dagger of Ajanti, and he goes,
- 1:02:28Speaker 2: the cross dagger of Ajanti. Like, he can't say, he
- 1:02:32Speaker 2: can't say Jade.
- 1:02:33Speaker 3: He does dish it up, doesn't he? You are correct
- 1:02:35Speaker 3: about that.
- 1:02:36Speaker 2: Yeah, and so I thought that was weird.
- 1:02:37Speaker 3: He's a pretty arts villain, though, wouldn't you agree? He's pretty,
- 1:02:39Speaker 3: he's pretty, you know, as far as villains go, he's
- 1:02:43Speaker 3: a pretty good villain.
- 1:02:45Speaker 2: Yeah, he's a ginger. Of course, they make the ginger
- 1:02:48Speaker 2: the bad guy every single freaking time.
- 1:02:51Speaker 4: Gingers have no soul. So, I mean, it makes sense.
- 1:02:53Speaker 2: Well, you know, JJ, I take that personally.
- 1:02:59Speaker 3: I'm half ginger, Julia. I understand what you're saying. I'm
- 1:03:01Speaker 3: just saying, like, you know, it's a perfect role for him, right?
- 1:03:04Speaker 3: He's a ginger, right?
- 1:03:05Speaker 11: Right, yeah.
- 1:03:06Speaker 2: But so, I think to back up a little bit, like, Chandler...
- 1:03:13Speaker 2: he's like on this talk show and he says he's
- 1:03:15Speaker 2: looking for this 16 year old girl. And that's another moment.
- 1:03:20Speaker 12: Okay.
- 1:03:20Speaker 2: I was going to say like, that's at the beginning
- 1:03:23Speaker 2: of the movie, but the rest of it, like the
- 1:03:26Speaker 2: blood sacrificing and all that stuff won't make sense until
- 1:03:30Speaker 2: we mentioned the part where he's like, that's how he
- 1:03:32Speaker 2: gets introduced to the story is he goes on this
- 1:03:35Speaker 2: talk show and he says he's looking for Errol Mosley
- 1:03:40Speaker 2: or whatever.
- 1:03:41Speaker 4: Her last name is.
- 1:03:42Speaker 5: Yes, ma'am.
- 1:03:42Speaker 11: Yeah.
- 1:03:45Speaker 3: If I may, I thank you for kicking this off.
- 1:03:47Speaker 3: I got that clip right here. If we can, we
- 1:03:49Speaker 3: can watch that here for the folks.
- 1:03:50Speaker 2: Yeah, it's so hilarious.
- 1:03:53Speaker 3: Because this is the cross section, right? So they came
- 1:03:55Speaker 3: from Tibet to Los Angeles and they were just talking
- 1:03:58Speaker 3: about not eating, not eating blood. This is the cross
- 1:04:01Speaker 3: section of the Tibetan Buddhism and the Satanism here in America.
- 1:04:05Speaker 3: Cross section here in Los Angeles here with this clip.
- 1:04:12Speaker 6: Now, let's talk about tortoises.
- 1:04:14Speaker 3: Judy, what have we got here? This is great.
- 1:04:15Speaker 6: Oh, this is Teddy, and he's 80 years old. 80?
- 1:04:17Speaker 6: He's wonderful.
- 1:04:19Speaker 8: Teddy can kiss my ass.
- 1:04:21Speaker 9: Listen, I'm trying to find this girl, okay?
- 1:04:23Speaker 8: Her name is Cheryl Mosley.
- 1:04:25Speaker 11: She was last seen on Vineland down in North Hollywood.
- 1:04:27Speaker 6: She had on a sweater and a skirt.
- 1:04:29Speaker 11: I'd appreciate it if you'd contact me at 468- 8492
- 1:04:31Speaker 11: if you have any no shut up man if you
- 1:04:33Speaker 11: have any information that leads to the finding of this
- 1:04:36Speaker 11: girl I'd appreciate it if you contacted me yo hey
- 1:04:38Speaker 11: if you don't put the.
- 1:04:39Speaker 6: Camera I'll bust your ass man.

- 1:04:44Speaker 11: hours a day 468-8492 now.
- 1:04:45Speaker 9: You can talk about whatever you want to talk about
- 1:04:47Speaker 9: with the toilet seat and whatever excuse.
- 1:04:51Speaker 3: So that's that's how Chandler Gerald gets roped in here
- 1:04:53Speaker 3: as the chosen one because homegirl there martial arts expert
- 1:04:57Speaker 3: and mysterious wizard lady.
- 1:04:59Speaker 4: She's a zucchini she's a zucchini.
- 1:05:02Speaker 3: What is this?
- 1:05:02Speaker 11: What is it?
- 1:05:03Speaker 3: A zucchini?
- 1:05:05Speaker 6: She's a zucchini. She's like a yoga practitioner. And she's
- 1:05:08Speaker 6: obviously like gained some cities, like some accomplishments.
- 1:05:13Speaker 3: She's got skill sets.
- 1:05:14Speaker 4: She's got some skills.
- 1:05:16Speaker 2: Yeah, she's a real badass. And, you know, when I
- 1:05:20Speaker 2: don't know if it's time for me to say it
- 1:05:22Speaker 2: just yet, but in classic 80s, style one of the
- 1:05:26Speaker 2: first scenes where she's like going off with her badassery
- 1:05:30Speaker 2: of course she has to kick a fucking pipe down
- 1:05:32Speaker 2: and her tits are all wet and flopping around and
- 1:05:35Speaker 2: stuff and her nips are showing through her shirt it's
- 1:05:38Speaker 2: like classic 80s uh you know but she she was.
- 1:05:44Speaker 3: Actually uh was that the yellow dragons fight was that
- 1:05:46Speaker 3: was that was that the same fight when they go
- 1:05:48Speaker 3: fight the yellow dragons yes but i actually had not
- 1:05:52Speaker 3: seen her before.
- 1:05:55Speaker 11: Yeah.
- 1:05:55Speaker 2: Had you seen her in any other movies?
- 1:05:58Speaker 4: No, I don't think I have since either. Quite honestly.
- 1:06:00Speaker 2: No.
- 1:06:01Speaker 6: And she's so cute.
- 1:06:03Speaker 2: She's so cute.
- 1:06:04Speaker 3: The golden boy, girl, the golden child.
- 1:06:07Speaker 4: They didn't act again either. Apparently this was their only film.
- 1:06:10Speaker 5: For sure.
- 1:06:11Speaker 4: Her only film.
- 1:06:12Speaker 2: But so I was going to mention, because I said, like,
- 1:06:15Speaker 2: I feel like they use colors a lot, like with
- 1:06:17Speaker 2: the yellow dragon and this and that. If you really
- 1:06:20Speaker 2: go back and watch the movie and you count how
- 1:06:22Speaker 2: many times they use blue, it just is weird to
- 1:06:26Speaker 2: me because like even that clip you just showed, the
- 1:06:30Speaker 2: talk show, the curtain in the background is blue. He's
- 1:06:32Speaker 2: wearing a blue shirt. And then at the end, well,
- 1:06:36Speaker 2: there's a lot of blue in the middle, but like
- 1:06:38Speaker 2: at the end, like two or three of the characters
- 1:06:41Speaker 2: are all wearing blue shirts. And so I don't know
- 1:06:44Speaker 2: if that's significant in some way, but I think the
- 1:06:47Speaker 2: colors are a big deal.
- 1:06:48Speaker 6: No, I'm sure they are. Sure. Sorry, JJ. Go ahead, Jen.
- 1:06:54Speaker 6: That was great noticing, Julia, let me just say. Even
- 1:06:57Speaker 6: when he says, bring the camera back over here, like,
- 1:07:01Speaker 6: look at me, and he's wearing that black leather jacket,
- 1:07:04Speaker 6: that really stood out to me. It's very banal, but
- 1:07:06Speaker 6: he's also in the blue, like Julia said. So he's
- 1:07:09Speaker 6: really pulling focus towards him. and she's wearing, like, red.
- 1:07:13Speaker 6: It's very Gavuratic, like, martial, but she's perceiving him, and
- 1:07:17Speaker 6: as Julia said, it's not just him that has the
- 1:07:20Speaker 6: blue shirt, but it's also the background of the talk show,
- 1:07:23Speaker 6: and then when it zooms out, you can see it,
- 1:07:26Speaker 6: and it's like, so it's like, the whole idea is, like,
- 1:07:29Speaker 6: you're standing at Gavur, you're looking, you're in the fire,
- 1:07:32Speaker 6: but then you're looking at the ocean, and you can
- 1:07:35Speaker 6: see yourself, and then you're looking, you can, you acknowledge
- 1:07:39Speaker 6: what it is, but it doesn't necessarily appear as you.
- 1:07:42Speaker 6: And that's a very magic, I'm sorry, that was very meta,
- 1:07:45Speaker 6: but that is kind of what it's like. It's like
- 1:07:48Speaker 6: there's an interaction with perception that happens between the ocean
- 1:07:51Speaker 6: and the water and the fire. You could say that.
- 1:07:54Speaker 6: So that's kind of what they represent. But they reverse
- 1:07:57Speaker 6: the poles. You see that? Usually you would have a
- 1:08:00Speaker 6: more masculine figure at mars or gevra and a feminine
- 1:08:04Speaker 6: figure has said but not you don't have to.
- 1:08:07Speaker 3: So you're playing they're playing gender games like they did
- 1:08:09Speaker 3: with the uh golden child huh so is that what
- 1:08:11Speaker 3: you're telling.
- 1:08:11Speaker 6: Me well it's interesting because it's like she's the one
- 1:08:16Speaker 6: in perception he's just saying you know bring the camera
- 1:08:20Speaker 6: towards me let me be amplify or magnetize this girl's
- 1:08:24Speaker 6: story like outward And she, but she's like, but what
- 1:08:28Speaker 6: she's focused on is him. So she's singular in her
- 1:08:31Speaker 6: view where he's expansive, very much Hasidic.
- 1:08:35Speaker 5: If you want to think about it, JJ, a really
- 1:08:37Speaker 5: good way to explain it. I think, uh, even with this,
- 1:08:40Speaker 5: if you want to make it Kabbalistically, which I think, uh, uh,
- 1:08:44Speaker 5: Jin's doing a real good job. I would, you know,
- 1:08:46Speaker 5: include the chest ed again, even, uh, projecting or expansive. Uh,
- 1:08:51Speaker 5: if you took a light bulb, the light that's shining
- 1:08:53Speaker 5: out of it would be kind of like male energy.
- 1:08:56Speaker 5: And the light bulb itself would kind of be the
- 1:08:58Speaker 5: feminine energy. The male energy, sound, sight, is coming out
- 1:09:04Speaker 5: of it.
- 1:09:05Speaker 4: It's a good analogy.
- 1:09:06Speaker 5: Projective. That would be like a... So I even think
- 1:09:12Speaker 5: when he was saying about him, in a sense, if
- 1:09:15Speaker 5: you think about it, she sees him then. And I
- 1:09:19Speaker 5: would say he is very much Chesed at that point,
- 1:09:21Speaker 5: very expansive, very powerful, loud being seen, you know, by
- 1:09:27Speaker 5: a lot. He's on TV. She sees him.
- 1:09:31Speaker 4: He's the chosen one.
- 1:09:32Speaker 5: She sees him, and then basically she takes him and
- 1:09:36Speaker 5: brings him wherever he's got to go. It's very magnetic. Well,
- 1:09:43Speaker 5: and I think we're playing the side of him. Well,
- 1:09:45Speaker 5: playing the side of him. Yeah, well, she chose him.
- 1:09:48Speaker 2: She chose him.
- 1:09:49Speaker 5: Yeah, and then she pulls him very, very magnetically like
- 1:09:53Speaker 5: the left pillar. She now fucking pulls him all the
- 1:09:55Speaker 5: way to her side.
- 1:09:57Speaker 6: We're supposed to be... Sorry, Julia.
- 1:10:01Speaker 7: Oh, sorry.
- 1:10:01Speaker 10: Go ahead.
- 1:10:02Speaker 6: I just want to say what Nick's saying is really
- 1:10:04Speaker 6: profound because that is even the idea is that Dakini
- 1:10:07Speaker 6: will lead you through experiences. You as the witness or
- 1:10:10Speaker 6: the perceiver rather than It's not just all your will.
- 1:10:15Speaker 6: It's like there's part of it that is a little
- 1:10:17Speaker 6: bit other power is what we would call it. So
- 1:10:20Speaker 6: it's like generative outside of you. Maybe it is you,
- 1:10:24Speaker 6: but maybe it isn't. It's kind of like an interstitial moment.
- 1:10:28Speaker 6: So I don't know.
- 1:10:29Speaker 3: As the story goes, this is how it happens, right?
- 1:10:30Speaker 3: She signs him up for all these things, right? Because
- 1:10:32Speaker 3: she sees him on the TV, right?
- 1:10:34Speaker 6: Yeah, she has to select him as a partner.
- 1:10:37Speaker 3: As the chosen one.
- 1:10:39Speaker 6: Right, exactly. Sorry, just.
- 1:10:42Speaker 5: No, I was interrupting you. Go ahead. I just don't
- 1:10:45Speaker 5: want to forget.
- 1:10:46Speaker 6: No, no, no.
- 1:10:46Speaker 5: Please, please.
- 1:10:47Speaker 6: I'm done.
- 1:10:48Speaker 5: What I was saying before in the video, I do
- 1:10:51Speaker 5: think that they both play the princess and the prince,
- 1:10:54Speaker 5: Hode and Netsok. But they both are going to play
- 1:10:57Speaker 5: the king and the queen at one point. And I
- 1:10:59Speaker 5: do think at chess, when she's seeing him, she's seeing
- 1:11:02Speaker 5: the king in that Hode is going to become going
- 1:11:08Speaker 5: up the tree. She already sees it in him. So
- 1:11:10Speaker 5: that's why she picks him. That sounds a little much,
- 1:11:13Speaker 5: but I do think that's part of it.
- 1:11:16Speaker 6: That makes total sense.
- 1:11:17Speaker 3: Speaking of Kabbalah, Nick, is old Noomsi, is he pronouncing
- 1:11:20Speaker 3: stuff in Hebrew stuff Kabbalah-wise?
- 1:11:22Speaker 5: I was wondering about that. With the whole reason why
- 1:11:25Speaker 5: he doesn't say the J.
- 1:11:27Speaker 6: Well, there's no J in Hebrew. There's no J in Hebrew,
- 1:11:32Speaker 6: so you wouldn't... That's even a thing in magic.
- 1:11:36Speaker 3: That's why it's mispronounced in Yerol, right? He's calling him
- 1:11:38Speaker 3: Yerol instead of Jeral.
- 1:11:40Speaker 6: Well, you could say it's like a rectification of the
- 1:11:42Speaker 6: J almost. Like you could say it's like how they
- 1:11:45Speaker 6: say Jehovah instead of Jehovah. So like you can even
- 1:11:50Speaker 6: hear in that there's a distinction, obviously, in like maybe
- 1:11:53Speaker 6: what God you're referring to. I'm not saying that. I'm
- 1:11:56Speaker 6: just saying that's how people think of it. or what
- 1:12:01Speaker 6: covenant you hold. That's obviously very Mithraic, but I think
- 1:12:05Speaker 6: that's kind of in line with the general magical sort
- 1:12:08Speaker 6: of orders and how they view the world.
- 1:12:12Speaker 12: And I think that they pointed out, just really quick,
- 1:12:16Speaker 12: they pointed out two things, and this is why it's important,
- 1:12:21Speaker 12: because when you watch this movie.
- 1:12:27Speaker 2: And I said, oh, look, he's wearing a blue shirt
- 1:12:31Speaker 2: and he's got the blue curtain behind him. And, you know,
- 1:12:36Speaker 2: she's wearing the red or whatever. And Jen did a
- 1:12:38Speaker 2: great job explaining that. But if you listen to like
- 1:12:42Speaker 2: the dialogue in these scenes, it's on purpose. Because the
- 1:12:46Speaker 2: talk show host comments on what he's wearing and he's like, oh,
- 1:12:49Speaker 2: look at your outfit. I love your hat. And it's like, okay,
- 1:12:52Speaker 2: we're supposed to pay attention to what he's wearing.
- 1:12:54Speaker 4: Drawing attention to it.
- 1:12:55Speaker 2: And then in another scene, Chandler Jarrell calls Sardo Noomski out. Yeah,
- 1:13:03Speaker 2: he's like, why do you mispronounce my name when you
- 1:13:07Speaker 2: know it's Jarrell? And he said, I know. So he's
- 1:13:11Speaker 2: like acknowledging that I'm mispronouncing it on purpose. So that's
- 1:13:15Speaker 2: why I think like, yeah, could we be looking into
- 1:13:18Speaker 2: it too far or whatever? Maybe. But I think the
- 1:13:21Speaker 2: reason they put those little lines in the movie is
- 1:13:24Speaker 2: because it is intentional. It's like the wardrobe choices, the
- 1:13:28Speaker 2: way that he mispronounces the name, like they even included
- 1:13:32Speaker 2: it into the dialogue is like, why do you insist
- 1:13:34Speaker 2: on mispronouncing my name? You know, it's Gerald. And he's like, yeah,
- 1:13:38Speaker 2: I know.
- 1:13:39Speaker 3: That's a very solid point, Julia. That's a very solid point.
- 1:13:41Speaker 3: And they have some great dialogue between old Noopsy and
- 1:13:44Speaker 3: Chandler Jarrell there, or Mr.
- 1:13:46Speaker 6: Jarrell, that is.
- 1:13:47Speaker 3: You know, they have some back, you know, some, as
- 1:13:49Speaker 3: far as the antagonist protagonists, they're not really doing a
- 1:13:51Speaker 3: lot of duking it out, but.
- 1:13:52Speaker 4: They are doing a lot. I mean, there's a little
- 1:13:54Speaker 4: bit of.
- 1:13:54Speaker 3: That, but they do a lot of back and forth, just,
- 1:13:57Speaker 3: you know, jawing at each other. So they got some
- 1:13:58Speaker 3: classic dialogue.
- 1:14:00Speaker 6: Well, I do that sometimes. Like I feel I've, I've,
- 1:14:02Speaker 6: I've discussed it on lives before that it's a, it's
- 1:14:05Speaker 6: an old discordian, like a chaos magician trick. You mispronounce
- 1:14:10Speaker 6: things or you create something I'm more fond of is
- 1:14:13Speaker 6: you create compound words that are totally brand new for
- 1:14:16Speaker 6: your use. So an example of that.
- 1:14:19Speaker 2: Westoid?
- 1:14:20Speaker 3: Is that what you did to me with Westoid?
- 1:14:21Speaker 4: No, I did not come.
- 1:14:22Speaker 6: Up with that. That's something from Zoom or Twitter. I'm
- 1:14:25Speaker 6: about 10 years too old to use that technically. But
- 1:14:28Speaker 6: I'll give you an example like clipolithic. Like people think
- 1:14:33Speaker 6: that I just mispronounce it, but it actually makes sense
- 1:14:36Speaker 6: because you're talking about like a stone aggregate. So that's
- 1:14:39Speaker 6: like a compound word that you can just make, but
- 1:14:42Speaker 6: it has to, there has to be a logic and
- 1:14:44Speaker 6: a coherence. So you can do that instead of saying
- 1:14:47Speaker 6: like Clipa, which I don't have a problem saying, but
- 1:14:50Speaker 6: sometimes there's an idea that the things that you say
- 1:14:53Speaker 6: are the things you invoke. So depending on the context
- 1:14:57Speaker 6: you're using it.
- 1:14:57Speaker 3: So, well, that's interesting. I appreciate that, Jen. Um, Is
- 1:15:02Speaker 3: that also Keno? Is that Keno?
- 1:15:04Speaker 6: That is considered true Keno.
- 1:15:07Speaker 4: I would assume it would be. I'm catching on. I'm
- 1:15:09Speaker 4: catching on.
- 1:15:10Speaker 3: So we were talking Yellow Dragon stuff and the crossover
- 1:15:12Speaker 3: with Intersection with Satan, Satanic Cold stuff in and around
- 1:15:16Speaker 3: Los Angeles. Spoiler alert, we find out Tommy Tong, who
- 1:15:21Speaker 3: is running this outlaw biker gang, who kidnapped this young
- 1:15:23Speaker 3: girl that the General Yarrow is looking for. Well, he
- 1:15:27Speaker 3: works for old Noomsy. So we're about to find that
- 1:15:30Speaker 3: out here right now. Oh, Cheryl.
- 1:15:36Speaker 4: Yeah, her.
- 1:15:38Speaker 6: We sold her.
- 1:15:39Speaker 9: What do you mean you sold her?
- 1:15:44Speaker 5: You sold her to who?
- 1:15:46Speaker 8: To Tommy Tong.
- 1:15:48Speaker 3: He got that restaurant down on Broadway, and we traded
- 1:15:53Speaker 3: her a case of cigarettes and a quart of pork
- 1:15:56Speaker 3: fried rice.
- 1:15:57Speaker 9: Why would somebody want to buy somebody?
- 1:16:00Speaker 6: He needed a girl.
- 1:16:01Speaker 8: For what?
- 1:16:03Speaker 6: He worked the steel out with the devil. Said he
- 1:16:07Speaker 6: needed her blood.
- 1:16:07Speaker 3: I have so much to say.
- 1:16:16Speaker 2: I have so much to say about this.
- 1:16:21Speaker 3: I did forget the parrot clip, which I'll play here
- 1:16:24Speaker 3: once we discuss this one. The parrot guy, that is
- 1:16:26Speaker 3: how they got there, was Victor Wong, the revived parrot.
- 1:16:30Speaker 4: From The Golden Child, is the one who led them
- 1:16:32Speaker 4: to that house.
- 1:16:34Speaker 12: Mm hmm.
- 1:16:35Speaker 2: So they do find Cheryl a little bit before this scene,
- 1:16:38Speaker 2: and that's where he finds the bucket of oatmeal with
- 1:16:41Speaker 2: the blood in it.
- 1:16:42Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 1:16:43Speaker 2: And so, again, I say this because I think it's important.
- 1:16:50Speaker 2: They chose an actress to play Cheryl, even though she's
- 1:16:53Speaker 2: in it for five seconds and she's just a dead body.
- 1:16:56Speaker 2: It's a ginger girl. And she's the innocent one. She's
- 1:16:59Speaker 2: the sacrifice, but also the devil is the ginger guy.
- 1:17:03Speaker 2: And it's like the masculine and the feminine, but they're
- 1:17:07Speaker 2: both red haired ginger people. And like, one's the innocent one.
- 1:17:11Speaker 2: One's the devil. He kills her, sacrifices her, uses her
- 1:17:15Speaker 2: blood in this ritual to kill this kid. And, you know,
- 1:17:19Speaker 2: it's like a, an innocent ginger girl and then the
- 1:17:22Speaker 2: devil is a ginger guy i think they do that
- 1:17:24Speaker 2: stuff on purpose and um the only other thing i
- 1:17:30Speaker 2: have to say about this scene is that at the
- 1:17:33Speaker 2: very beginning when they break into the house they're playing
- 1:17:36Speaker 2: a really specific song i don't know if you caught
- 1:17:39Speaker 2: it it's um by rat you know that body.
- 1:17:45Speaker 3: Talk i did not catch it but please tell us Okay, so.
- 1:17:49Speaker 2: The album that that song is on, it was Rat's
- 1:17:53Speaker 2: debut album, and it featured themes of witchcraft, nuclear war,
- 1:17:57Speaker 2: and global destruction. And that is the song that's playing
- 1:18:02Speaker 2: right now. Um, as that scene opens up. So as
- 1:18:05Speaker 2: I say, if you look in the background, everything is
- 1:18:08Speaker 2: on purpose, even a dead girl that's laying in the
- 1:18:10Speaker 2: movie for five minutes, that happens to be a ginger
- 1:18:13Speaker 2: girl with this yellow dragon tattoo. And then, you know,
- 1:18:17Speaker 2: the devil's a red haired guy. I think all the
- 1:18:19Speaker 2: little tiny details actually matter in the long run.
- 1:18:23Speaker 3: I agree.
- 1:18:27Speaker 6: I agree as well, Julia. And I will say that
- 1:18:29Speaker 6: sometimes in Tantra, the deity and his consort are depicted
- 1:18:34Speaker 6: as red hair. But if you kind of understand, you
- 1:18:37Speaker 6: realize it doesn't have to be red hair because it
- 1:18:39Speaker 6: can just be the sort of appearance of red from
- 1:18:43Speaker 6: wisdom fire. So the wisdom fire would make the hair
- 1:18:46Speaker 6: appear red. So it could be blonde or even black.
- 1:18:48Speaker 6: And sometimes it is also depicted as that but I
- 1:18:51Speaker 6: think that was also a really good point.
- 1:18:55Speaker 2: Somebody got the song right.
- 1:18:57Speaker 8: Yeah.
- 1:18:57Speaker 2: I couldn't remember the title of it, but I remembered
- 1:19:00Speaker 2: the lyrics, but yes, that's, that's the song too. That's
- 1:19:04Speaker 2: playing in the background. And I only, and what struck
- 1:19:08Speaker 2: me the first time I watched it before I even
- 1:19:11Speaker 2: decided I wanted to cover it on a conspiracy episode
- 1:19:14Speaker 2: is I hate that song. And every time that scene plays,
- 1:19:17Speaker 2: I'm like, somebody shoot me in the face. I hate that.
- 1:19:21Speaker 2: Rat shit.
- 1:19:22Speaker 12: Yeah.
- 1:19:24Speaker 4: Not my scene for sure.
- 1:19:25Speaker 3: So before we get into the oatmeal blood stuff, Tyler,
- 1:19:27Speaker 3: before we talk about the oatmeal and the blood stuff,
- 1:19:30Speaker 3: I got a video clip to tie that into the
- 1:19:32Speaker 3: golden child here in a minute. But let's, what are
- 1:19:34Speaker 3: your all thoughts? What's all that about?
- 1:19:35Speaker 4: What's feeding all this blood stuff about an oatmeal?
- 1:19:38Speaker 6: Well, before we do a blood and oatmeal, which I
- 1:19:41Speaker 6: will obviously discuss a little.
- 1:19:43Speaker 4: You better watch out. Victor Wong's got his wand out, buddy.
- 1:19:46Speaker 3: What do you want to talk about before blood and oatmeal?
- 1:19:48Speaker 3: What are we talking here?
- 1:19:49Speaker 6: Well, Victor Wong, of course.
- 1:19:52Speaker 3: The orange and the red, that's why I brought this
- 1:19:53Speaker 3: picture up.
- 1:19:55Speaker 6: It's perfect. It's perfect, JJ.
- 1:19:56Speaker 3: This is the orange and the red Nick was talking
- 1:19:58Speaker 3: about earlier.
- 1:19:59Speaker 10: Yes.
- 1:19:59Speaker 6: So orange is a really important color in Buddhism. You
- 1:20:02Speaker 6: could almost say it's the most important color. If you
- 1:20:04Speaker 6: were to compare it to the tree, you would definitely
- 1:20:06Speaker 6: say that Buddhism really likes Hode as a starting position
- 1:20:10Speaker 6: for an Upasaka or someone who practices Buddhism. So I
- 1:20:15Speaker 6: said at the beginning that the monks depicted were of
- 1:20:18Speaker 6: the Gelugpa, so the Gelug school. He is actually a Nagappa.
- 1:20:22Speaker 6: So he is a sorcerer. He belongs to the Nyingma school.
- 1:20:27Speaker 6: So it's the old school or the ancient school. So
- 1:20:31Speaker 6: they're allowed sort of more, they give themselves a little
- 1:20:34Speaker 6: more conceptual leeway with ideas, and he can also be
- 1:20:37Speaker 6: a householder. So he's not restricted by monastic vows. That's
- 1:20:42Speaker 6: why later on, spoiler alert, he gets called like a
- 1:20:46Speaker 6: paternal name. So, but that's even what his red hat means.
- 1:20:50Speaker 6: It's kind of like he wears the orange robe. Sometimes
- 1:20:53Speaker 6: he would be a black coat with an orange robe.
- 1:20:55Speaker 6: He would obviously be in turquoise jewelry, lapis lazuli jewelry,
- 1:21:00Speaker 6: and then he would wear the red hat. And that
- 1:21:02Speaker 6: would indicate that he is also a Buddhist. He's not
- 1:21:05Speaker 6: just a sorcerer. So just an idea there.
- 1:21:09Speaker 3: So, let me pause. Flipped in where they're trying to
- 1:21:15Speaker 3: feed the golden child some of this blood oatmeal here.
- 1:21:20Speaker 3: It's got some of those sigils you were talking about earlier, Jen,
- 1:21:22Speaker 3: with the... There's probably a lot of stuff you're all
- 1:21:24Speaker 3: going to see that I don't have the foggiest idea about.
- 1:21:27Speaker 4: So, stand by, please.
- 1:21:29Speaker 5: Stand by.
- 1:21:50Speaker 10: I'm sorry.
- 1:22:16Speaker 5: Ha ha ha!
- 1:22:49Speaker 3: There's Noomsie.
- 1:22:50Speaker 6: You will eat. So, I think it's really interesting, JJ,
- 1:22:55Speaker 6: that the sigil, it had a.
- 1:22:58Speaker 5: I.
- 1:22:58Speaker 6: Don't read Tibetan. I've never... I cannot. But I can recognize.
- 1:23:02Speaker 3: Hold on one second, Jen. Hold on one second. Hold
- 1:23:03Speaker 3: that thought for a second.
- 1:23:06Speaker 4: One second. I just want to see him do his
- 1:23:08Speaker 4: telepathic powers here.
- 1:23:18Speaker 3: Or I guess technically she, the golden child, said, fuck
- 1:23:22Speaker 3: your oatmeal. What were you saying there, Jen?
- 1:23:28Speaker 6: I apologize, JJ. I didn't.
- 1:23:30Speaker 4: You're good.
- 1:23:31Speaker 3: Okay.
- 1:23:31Speaker 6: So I apologize for that. But I can't even remember.
- 1:23:35Speaker 6: But I'll start with the oatmeal and blood because that's obviously,
- 1:23:38Speaker 6: you know, give the people what they want. So obviously.
- 1:23:42Speaker 3: That's a big part of the story here, right?
- 1:23:43Speaker 6: That's right.
- 1:23:44Speaker 3: They got to weaken the golden child to kill it.
- 1:23:47Speaker 6: So it is it is a tantric idea, just like
- 1:23:50Speaker 6: it is in Talima, like cakes of light that obviously
- 1:23:53Speaker 6: comes from Tibetan Buddhism. It's obviously like our tarma cakes. Interestingly,
- 1:23:57Speaker 6: that they use oatmeal. That's obviously a nod to I
- 1:24:00Speaker 6: don't know how they make cakes of light in the
- 1:24:02Speaker 6: in the OTO or any of the other orders. But
- 1:24:04Speaker 6: in Tibetan Buddhism, it's made with barley powder. So it's
- 1:24:08Speaker 6: barley powder, starfire. So it's not the blood of a virgin,
- 1:24:12Speaker 6: just to be very clear. And it's not even starfire
- 1:24:16Speaker 6: as you would understand it. It's made, it's like a homeopathic,
- 1:24:19Speaker 6: like eight times version made into tiny little nectar pills. So,
- 1:24:25Speaker 6: and yes, it can also be other substances. And so
- 1:24:28Speaker 6: the transgressive substances change the offering from like a peaceful
- 1:24:33Speaker 6: offering into a wrathful offering. But in Tibetan Buddhism, nothing
- 1:24:37Speaker 6: is ever, sacrifice except yourself, like not yourself, but kind
- 1:24:42Speaker 6: of like who you think you are. That's the only
- 1:24:45Speaker 6: that's just their symbolic offerings to represent sort of mental
- 1:24:49Speaker 6: or sort of like obstacles of consciousness. So you offer
- 1:24:55Speaker 6: those obstacles of consciousness, but you put in a vessel
- 1:24:59Speaker 6: that is the transgressive or wrathful offering. But in and
- 1:25:03Speaker 6: of itself, it's just a container. It's not like the
- 1:25:06Speaker 6: real thing. You're just using that as a vehicle to
- 1:25:10Speaker 6: remove the obstacle. But the obstacle always comes from yourself.
- 1:25:13Speaker 6: It's not from external source.
- 1:25:20Speaker 4: Interesting.
- 1:25:20Speaker 3: So what are your thoughts, Nick, on all this blood oatmeal,
- 1:25:24Speaker 3: weakening of this child, the golden child, To immortal situations?
- 1:25:30Speaker 5: I'll look at it a couple of different ways here.
- 1:25:35Speaker 5: Even when, like, Jin was going there with it, too.
- 1:25:38Speaker 5: I guess, like, you know, cake of lights, that does
- 1:25:40Speaker 5: have blood in it. Stuff he was talking about has
- 1:25:41Speaker 5: blood in it. Wheat, I think, is just used in general,
- 1:25:47Speaker 5: or something like that. Grain is used symbolically, I think,
- 1:25:52Speaker 5: a lot. You know, just because it's cooked oatmeal.
- 1:25:55Speaker 6: Yeah.
- 1:25:55Speaker 5: Think about it in the raw sense. You see stuff
- 1:25:57Speaker 5: like that a lot. Is it heart healthy?
- 1:26:02Speaker 10: Huh?
- 1:26:03Speaker 3: Is it heart healthy? It's good for my cholesterol?
- 1:26:06Speaker 5: Probably, yeah. Blood. Another interesting thing with that, too, even
- 1:26:12Speaker 5: in Hebrew, it matches golden and full. There was something
- 1:26:17Speaker 5: else I was going to bring up before, but I
- 1:26:19Speaker 5: didn't want to get too much on the numbers. So, like,
- 1:26:22Speaker 5: I even thought, like, how that seemed interesting, how that, like,
- 1:26:24Speaker 5: even matches, like, Eddie Murphy's character, but then also the
- 1:26:27Speaker 5: kid itself again. And then even in... Sure.
- 1:26:31Speaker 3: The crossover again, right?
- 1:26:33Speaker 5: Yeah, and then even Blood, and then in English, matches...
- 1:26:36Speaker 5: I mean, this might be a stretch, matches Luna, but
- 1:26:39Speaker 5: that chick's name also matches Moon. That key name.
- 1:26:42Speaker 4: Interesting.
- 1:26:44Speaker 5: You can see a crossover.
- 1:26:45Speaker 4: It's kind of the reverse of the symbolism of the sun, too, right?
- 1:26:48Speaker 3: At that rate, right?
- 1:26:49Speaker 6: Yeah.
- 1:26:49Speaker 5: And it matches fool all the way around. It matches
- 1:26:52Speaker 5: fool in Hebrew and English and simple. Fool all the
- 1:26:58Speaker 5: way around.
- 1:26:59Speaker 2: I read some theories about the golden child online. And
- 1:27:03Speaker 2: also every time before I do an episode like this,
- 1:27:07Speaker 2: I like to check Reddit and see what people have
- 1:27:09Speaker 2: said about it. And they did, to Nick's point, they
- 1:27:13Speaker 2: always reference that girl. I think her name is Ki
- 1:27:18Speaker 2: Nung or something like that in the movie. They reference
- 1:27:21Speaker 2: her as supposed to be a moon deity. And I
- 1:27:26Speaker 2: read that several times in a lot of the Reddit
- 1:27:29Speaker 2: chats that she was supposed to be like a moon deity.
- 1:27:33Speaker 2: So I just wanted to throw that in there. That's
- 1:27:35Speaker 2: not my.
- 1:27:37Speaker 2: Yeah that was that wasn't my um conclusions but i
- 1:27:41Speaker 2: did see that several times on reddit people talking about
- 1:27:43Speaker 2: this movie and what it could mean and stuff like
- 1:27:45Speaker 2: that um.
- 1:27:46Speaker 3: That got brought up a lot yeah does that mean
- 1:27:49Speaker 3: anything though king nang is that.
- 1:27:51Speaker 2: I couldn't find anything on that specifically um but the
- 1:27:56Speaker 2: blood in the oatmeal i think it could be another
- 1:27:58Speaker 2: thing obviously what jen and nick are saying um in
- 1:28:02Speaker 2: just the colors the white and the red i think
- 1:28:06Speaker 2: um could be significant because out of all things to
- 1:28:10Speaker 2: choose oatmeal i feel like that's a little specific because
- 1:28:13Speaker 2: you could put blood i feel like if i was
- 1:28:15Speaker 2: going to try to feed somebody something with blood in
- 1:28:17Speaker 2: it more creative about it like vegetable soup then you
- 1:28:22Speaker 2: couldn't yeah you.
- 1:28:23Speaker 3: Gotta you gotta sneak it in there you gotta find
- 1:28:25Speaker 3: a better source to transport that blood.
- 1:28:27Speaker 2: That's like why why oatmeal you know.
- 1:28:29Speaker 3: It seems of importance right the grain or the oats
- 1:28:33Speaker 3: there something's important Yeah.
- 1:28:36Speaker 2: And like when he first digs the spoon into it
- 1:28:40Speaker 2: and there's that scene where it's just oatmeal on the
- 1:28:42Speaker 2: top and then boom blood comes squirting out of it
- 1:28:44Speaker 2: and it's like very cinematic how they did like the
- 1:28:48Speaker 2: white oatmeal with the red blood squirting out so and
- 1:28:51Speaker 2: then he even like takes a polaroid picture of it
- 1:28:55Speaker 2: So I think, you know, the colors could be significant. Also,
- 1:28:59Speaker 2: if you want to get real surface level, like with
- 1:29:03Speaker 2: the red hair and the white skin, the oatmeal and
- 1:29:06Speaker 2: the blood, it's like literally all the colors in this
- 1:29:10Speaker 2: movie mean something.
- 1:29:11Speaker 4: I mean, I like it. You got a lot of
- 1:29:14Speaker 4: that red stuff going on in just the movie poster, right?
- 1:29:16Speaker 3: The official imagery for the film, right?
- 1:29:18Speaker 4: I mean, some deep reds going on.
- 1:29:21Speaker 6: Deep reds well i i can offer a little something
- 1:29:25Speaker 6: is that that was great let's do it yeah because
- 1:29:28Speaker 6: the white red and blue are the most significant colors
- 1:29:31Speaker 6: like i said orange was a really important color yes
- 1:29:33Speaker 6: green is a really important color yes but the real
- 1:29:36Speaker 6: primordial colors are white red and blue in that order
- 1:29:41Speaker 6: so obviously the pepsi can has like multiple layers of
- 1:29:44Speaker 6: significance just through that it's also you could say like
- 1:29:48Speaker 6: a sort of an agent of synthesis in a way,
- 1:29:52Speaker 6: because it, it's like bringing, it's obviously a tin can
- 1:29:55Speaker 6: kind of thing or aluminum. So maybe even has mercurialness,
- 1:29:59Speaker 6: but then it's white. So it's kind of tether, but
- 1:30:04Speaker 6: you need other things to get there. So you have
- 1:30:05Speaker 6: the Hesed and the Gevra, the water and the fire
- 1:30:08Speaker 6: coming together. And then the little boy at Hode, that
- 1:30:11Speaker 6: little golden prince, he's making it alive with his mind.
- 1:30:15Speaker 6: So yeah, there's something very magic about that. And, um,
- 1:30:20Speaker 6: I think that the other, I forgot my other point,
- 1:30:23Speaker 6: but I, you know, that was a great point, Julia.
- 1:30:25Speaker 6: And I agree. Oh, also you can, you can make
- 1:30:29Speaker 6: Torma's like wrathful offerings. You can make them very gory,
- 1:30:32Speaker 6: like looking because you just, you, you just like mold
- 1:30:35Speaker 6: a cake basically out of barley powder and like little
- 1:30:39Speaker 6: substance pills. And then you can make them like have
- 1:30:43Speaker 6: eyeballs or tongues or like any of the wrathful kind
- 1:30:46Speaker 6: of offerings. So like what Julia is saying, it's like
- 1:30:49Speaker 6: a perfect simulcra. Like, you know, it's not quite real
- 1:30:53Speaker 6: and it's also cinematic. So it's like a crazy offering
- 1:30:56Speaker 6: that's squirting blood that they're telling us is real. But
- 1:30:59Speaker 6: we also know as an audience is not really real.
- 1:31:02Speaker 6: So it is kind of like a perfect tantric offering
- 1:31:04Speaker 6: in a way because it's kind of like a lie
- 1:31:06Speaker 6: and a truth at the same time.
- 1:31:09Speaker 11: Yeah.
- 1:31:09Speaker 2: And I think the three colors I noticed the most
- 1:31:12Speaker 2: in this movie were red, white and blue. And the
- 1:31:16Speaker 2: golden child wears a traditional like little Buddhist looking robe
- 1:31:24Speaker 2: throughout the entire movie, except for the very last scene
- 1:31:27Speaker 2: of the movie where they put a red, white and
- 1:31:31Speaker 2: blue shirt on him. And then Eddie Murphy gives him
- 1:31:36Speaker 2: a hat that's blue and white.
- 1:31:38Speaker 3: And And so it's a Dodgers cap, right?
- 1:31:41Speaker 2: Yeah, I think that they I mean, the whole movie,
- 1:31:44Speaker 2: he's like got the traditional, you know, garb on. And
- 1:31:48Speaker 2: then at the very last scene of the movie, he's red,
- 1:31:51Speaker 2: white and blue striped shirt with a blue and white hat.
- 1:31:55Speaker 2: And so, yeah, I think that stands out. Like, I
- 1:32:00Speaker 2: don't even know why they put that on him, honestly, because.
- 1:32:03Speaker 4: Excellent point, though. Excellent point.
- 1:32:06Speaker 9: Yeah.
- 1:32:06Speaker 6: Yeah.
- 1:32:07Speaker 2: They're wearing blue again.
- 1:32:09Speaker 3: Yeah, blue sky background.
- 1:32:13Speaker 2: Yeah, the red, white, and blue stripes in the blue
- 1:32:17Speaker 2: and white hat. And yeah, I think the colors definitely
- 1:32:22Speaker 2: mean something.
- 1:32:23Speaker 3: I don't want to misgender this individual, not even in
- 1:32:26Speaker 3: a trans way, but that is, just to remind you,
- 1:32:27Speaker 3: that is a girl.
- 1:32:28Speaker 4: Just want to let you know.
- 1:32:29Speaker 2: That's so crazy to me.
- 1:32:32Speaker 4: Isn't it wild? I was shocked to learn that.
- 1:32:35Speaker 2: I mean, I guess they did that with the little girl.
- 1:32:38Speaker 2: What's her face from fucking stranger things. So it's not
- 1:32:43Speaker 2: the first time they shaved a girl's head and, you know,
- 1:32:46Speaker 2: but they let her still be a girl in that.
- 1:32:48Speaker 4: That's what I'm saying.
- 1:32:51Speaker 3: Like Jen and Nick were discussing earlier with these playing
- 1:32:54Speaker 3: of the gender role games within this occult philosophies. You know,
- 1:32:58Speaker 3: I kind of see the same thing from like a
- 1:33:00Speaker 3: surface level, like you were saying, Julia. When I look
- 1:33:02Speaker 3: at Satanism, I'm like, well, they like to play this
- 1:33:04Speaker 3: gender game a lot in Satanism. And old Noomsie here,
- 1:33:07Speaker 3: they call him the devil, but he's a Noomsie. But
- 1:33:09Speaker 3: he kind of is the devil, right? I mean, they
- 1:33:11Speaker 3: don't really classify it.
- 1:33:14Speaker 2: He's a demon for sure, because he meditates and then
- 1:33:19Speaker 2: he speaks to the devil.
- 1:33:22Speaker 3: That's right. So he's not the devil.
- 1:33:23Speaker 4: He's not even the top devil.
- 1:33:25Speaker 3: He's like a lower tier devil.
- 1:33:27Speaker 2: Yeah, he's like a henchman for the devil.
- 1:33:32Speaker 8: Yeah.
- 1:33:34Speaker 4: He's middle management for Satan.
- 1:33:36Speaker 2: Because he can't even figure out what the fuck to do.
- 1:33:38Speaker 2: He's got to go back and ask advice. Like, I
- 1:33:41Speaker 2: thought you were supposed to be a demon with all
- 1:33:43Speaker 2: your demon-y knowledge and shit, and you got to go
- 1:33:46Speaker 2: back and refer back to the devil all the time
- 1:33:48Speaker 2: like you're a retard. Like, what am I.
- 1:33:50Speaker 3: Supposed to do?
- 1:33:51Speaker 2: How do I kill him?
- 1:33:52Speaker 11: I don't know.
- 1:33:53Speaker 2: Stab him in the fucking face. You're a demon.
- 1:33:56Speaker 3: That's a great point, because if you're some sort of
- 1:33:58Speaker 3: criminal mastermind and you work, you know, this demon thing,
- 1:34:01Speaker 3: You hire Tommy Tong, who pays some chow mein to
- 1:34:04Speaker 3: these bikers to kidnap a girl. What are these negotiations
- 1:34:07Speaker 3: and logistics you're going through here, bud?
- 1:34:08Speaker 5: You're a demon.
- 1:34:09Speaker 4: You can do better. Hold on.
- 1:34:11Speaker 3: Let me just show you who Tommy Tong is here
- 1:34:14Speaker 3: because he's much like Victor Wong. They also starred in
- 1:34:17Speaker 3: Big Trouble Little China, the guy who played Tommy Tong here.
- 1:34:19Speaker 3: But Tommy Tong was a liability, and old Noomsie wasn't
- 1:34:22Speaker 3: having it. I mean I didn't say it was a
- 1:34:48Speaker 3: speaking role it was more of a dying role but
- 1:34:49Speaker 3: that was Tommy Tong.
- 1:34:51Speaker 2: What is the rat significant for because they're listening to
- 1:34:55Speaker 2: a rat song and then Noomsie just turned into a
- 1:34:58Speaker 2: rat so what is this you beat.
- 1:34:59Speaker 3: Me to it you beat me to it Julia and
- 1:35:02Speaker 3: I feel like the Asian cultures have a different significance
- 1:35:05Speaker 3: of rats than we do here in America but I'm
- 1:35:07Speaker 3: sure Jen can add to that.
- 1:35:08Speaker 6: Well, if you wanted to give it a really Buddhist layer,
- 1:35:11Speaker 6: you could say the rat is the vehicle of the
- 1:35:13Speaker 6: Lord of hosts or the Lord of aggregates. So maybe
- 1:35:18Speaker 6: give him like a materialistic, cleopolithic, maybe even satanic, but
- 1:35:23Speaker 6: of course you don't have to, I'm just saying conceptually,
- 1:35:26Speaker 6: you don't have to take it like that. Right. But
- 1:35:28Speaker 6: you could say that it gives it that element, but
- 1:35:30Speaker 6: there's also a really interesting element that's universal. Is that,
- 1:35:36Speaker 6: In almost every culture that I've ever encountered talking about magic,
- 1:35:40Speaker 6: they will always discuss sorcerers being able to transform into
- 1:35:45Speaker 6: black animals. So like a rat, like a dog, like
- 1:35:50Speaker 6: a horse. Cat is actually rare. It's actually quite rare
- 1:35:57Speaker 6: as an idea that only women, it's more women can
- 1:36:00Speaker 6: turn into cats. Or they will say cat spirits, especially
- 1:36:04Speaker 6: in a Chinese context, they'll say cat spirits can live
- 1:36:07Speaker 6: a very long time. And eventually if they can live
- 1:36:09Speaker 6: long enough, they'll turn into women that can like marry
- 1:36:13Speaker 6: men and et cetera.
- 1:36:15Speaker 3: So that's a lot of thoughts that I'm going to
- 1:36:17Speaker 3: process right now. No disrespect, Jen, but I mean, I
- 1:36:20Speaker 3: like it. That's some wild stuff you just threw out there, bud.
- 1:36:23Speaker 2: I think that happened to me though. I think I
- 1:36:25Speaker 2: was born a cat and I slowly transitioned into... Yeah,
- 1:36:29Speaker 2: I mean, I've always just identified as a cat. Like,
- 1:36:32Speaker 2: I'm always like, go fuck yourself. You know, people come
- 1:36:35Speaker 2: around and I'm like, and then I go hide somewhere.
- 1:36:38Speaker 2: I'm better as an online presence. Yeah, I'm just an
- 1:36:43Speaker 2: online presence. Don't come to my house, though.
- 1:36:46Speaker 4: You want to do.
- 1:36:48Speaker 3: Online vampiring like Celeste the Vampire we just had on here?
- 1:36:51Speaker 2: Dude said I would totally do it. As long as
- 1:36:54Speaker 2: I don't have to meet a motherfucker and.
- 1:36:56Speaker 5: Like deal with you in person.
- 1:36:58Speaker 6: Yeah.
- 1:36:59Speaker 2: Yeah but oh so i was gonna say i feel
- 1:37:03Speaker 2: like there are undertones of like the christianity story inside
- 1:37:06Speaker 2: this movie because the biker gang that sells the young
- 1:37:10Speaker 2: girl for a pork fried rice or like whatever that's
- 1:37:16Speaker 2: like the judas couple egg rolls a couple of egg
- 1:37:20Speaker 2: rolls you know and then you have you know um
- 1:37:24Speaker 2: sardo's is trying to offer a deal to gerald so
- 1:37:28Speaker 2: it's like making a deal with the devil and the.
- 1:37:31Speaker 3: Chosen one was deal with the devil that's yeah yeah
- 1:37:35Speaker 3: i made that clip so i.
- 1:37:38Speaker 2: Do think there are like the like christian aspects to
- 1:37:41Speaker 2: this like someone betraying you and selling you for pork
- 1:37:44Speaker 2: fried rice and making a deal with the devil and
- 1:37:47Speaker 2: you know the whole.
- 1:37:48Speaker 3: That's kind of making a joke of the satanic panic
- 1:37:50Speaker 3: at the time right this is kind of the height
- 1:37:51Speaker 3: of satanic panic.
- 1:37:52Speaker 2: Right sure i would say so yeah.
- 1:37:58Speaker 3: What's funny because i didn't i don't know where i
- 1:38:00Speaker 3: put the clip i was just looking for it but
- 1:38:02Speaker 3: speaking of all this satanic stuff right so in the
- 1:38:07Speaker 3: satanic panic business so eddie murphy did a show i
- 1:38:11Speaker 3: think it was at coffee with cars with jerry seinfeld
- 1:38:14Speaker 3: and he's talking about how he met sammy davis jr
- 1:38:16Speaker 3: there around the same time he made this film it's
- 1:38:18Speaker 3: a mid-80s so and sammy day old sammy d was
- 1:38:21Speaker 3: trying to get him to join the church of satan
- 1:38:24Speaker 3: Join the dark side, is all that he was talking about. Hmm.
- 1:38:30Speaker 6: I think it's important to just note really quick that
- 1:38:32Speaker 6: we don't have a Satan figure per se. Well, maybe
- 1:38:37Speaker 6: that's not accurate.
- 1:38:38Speaker 5: We don't have a devil figure per se. I meant
- 1:38:40Speaker 5: to tell you that. Ajanti equals Satan.
- 1:38:43Speaker 9: Okay.
- 1:38:43Speaker 3: The dagger?
- 1:38:44Speaker 5: Yeah.
- 1:38:47Speaker 4: The Ajanti dagger?
- 1:38:48Speaker 6: Yes.
- 1:38:48Speaker 4: The Satan dagger? Oh, that's interesting.
- 1:38:51Speaker 2: You remember what they said about it? When Noomsi meditates
- 1:38:57Speaker 2: to speak with the devil and he says the Ajanti
- 1:39:00Speaker 2: dagger is not of this world and it came from
- 1:39:04Speaker 2: hell so they could kill the golden child like it's
- 1:39:08Speaker 2: literally from hell. That makes sense why they had to
- 1:39:12Speaker 2: make this hell, right?
- 1:39:14Speaker 4: He had to eat the bloody oatmeal to make this up,
- 1:39:16Speaker 4: which kind of sounds like vampirism.
- 1:39:18Speaker 6: He's bringing the carnal ground to the little boy.
- 1:39:21Speaker 4: Not the online kind, but.
- 1:39:22Speaker 6: More of heaven, you could say. And so there's something
- 1:39:26Speaker 6: really interesting even about the dagger, since Nick brought it up,
- 1:39:28Speaker 6: is that that dagger is actually a magical implement, but
- 1:39:32Speaker 6: it's also a deity. That deity name is Vajra Kumara.
- 1:39:36Speaker 6: That's an older version of text, but, or older.
- 1:39:39Speaker 4: That's not a dagger, Jim.
- 1:39:40Speaker 3: This is a dagger.
- 1:39:43Speaker 6: Yes, that dagger. So it's a three-pointed dagger, and it
- 1:39:48Speaker 6: also is called Vajra Kumara, just like the golden boy.
- 1:39:51Speaker 6: So the dagger can also be a deity.
- 1:39:54Speaker 3: So you're saying this is also the golden child?
- 1:39:58Speaker 6: Right, but then the whole point is to not have
- 1:40:02Speaker 6: a distinction between object and perceiver. So you're kind of
- 1:40:06Speaker 6: unified in the dagger and you can even see there's
- 1:40:09Speaker 6: like a figure eight sort of thing. That's a Vajra.
- 1:40:12Speaker 6: So like everyone always loves the Vajra whenever I bring
- 1:40:16Speaker 6: it up. So that's a Vajra in the middle, but
- 1:40:18Speaker 6: then it comes down to a single point. So at
- 1:40:20Speaker 6: the single point should be your like will, but it's
- 1:40:23Speaker 6: your will in complete emptiness. So it's what I'm really
- 1:40:26Speaker 6: trying to say is it's just, it's a wand you
- 1:40:28Speaker 6: could say, or a dagger can be both things really,
- 1:40:32Speaker 6: but it, It can also be you, but it is
- 1:40:35Speaker 6: not you just like when you're holding it, playing with it.
- 1:40:38Speaker 4: Like it's a dagger that identifies as a woman.
- 1:40:41Speaker 6: Yes. Like you could say it, you could say the
- 1:40:43Speaker 6: apotheosis of a person is the golden child. I think
- 1:40:47Speaker 6: that's a very Christian Kabbalistic way to kind of look
- 1:40:49Speaker 6: at it or even a theosophical way. Like, I think
- 1:40:52Speaker 6: that's what Nick and I have both been like getting
- 1:40:53Speaker 6: at is that it's like someone rising through the tree,
- 1:40:56Speaker 6: but it could be like a real person, maybe a magician.
- 1:40:58Speaker 2: Okay. Okay.
- 1:41:03Speaker 3: It's a pretty wild dagger.
- 1:41:04Speaker 5: I don't want to try to get into it too much.
- 1:41:07Speaker 5: I explain it. Go ahead. Well, a couple of years ago,
- 1:41:12Speaker 5: I had covered Michael Myers, Halloween, and Nightmare on Elm Street,
- 1:41:16Speaker 5: how I both thought they kind of both represented Beast
- 1:41:19Speaker 5: and both possibly like Janice. And again, they both, you know,
- 1:41:26Speaker 5: Freddy has the daggers, kind of finger daggers. And the
- 1:41:29Speaker 5: other guy is known for a knife as well. And
- 1:41:32Speaker 5: I do, you know, even when I was showing, there's
- 1:41:34Speaker 5: something in, I think, line two and line 17, I think,
- 1:41:38Speaker 5: both associate with, like, Janice in Crowley 777. And somewhere, like,
- 1:41:44Speaker 5: I think a knife or, like, a cross or something
- 1:41:48Speaker 5: along those lines comes up associated with that. And that was, like,
- 1:41:51Speaker 5: another thing I was showing that I was trying to explain.
- 1:41:53Speaker 5: And if you think about it in a sense, if
- 1:41:55Speaker 5: you look at the dagger now, it's already got the
- 1:41:57Speaker 5: two-faced god right at the bottom.
- 1:42:00Speaker 3: That's what I was just going to say, right? So
- 1:42:01Speaker 3: is that Giannis, the two faces you see there, right?
- 1:42:04Speaker 6: Well, so he technically has five faces, but sometimes it
- 1:42:10Speaker 6: will show us three or one with a face above it.
- 1:42:14Speaker 6: So it'll be like a little, he'll kind of like,
- 1:42:16Speaker 6: it'll like represent like his higher consciousness, the face above it.
- 1:42:20Speaker 6: And interestingly, to go off Nick's comment, is that when
- 1:42:23Speaker 6: you look at him in art, so just Buddhist art,
- 1:42:26Speaker 6: although sometimes they make daggers like this, he will be
- 1:42:29Speaker 6: depicted in full form and he'll have wings. So all in,
- 1:42:34Speaker 6: it will look like very much like a cross or
- 1:42:36Speaker 6: a crucifix, maybe, maybe not as, it looks like a
- 1:42:39Speaker 6: towel anyway. And that is kind of the idea. And
- 1:42:42Speaker 6: so like Julia was saying, like raising something from hell,
- 1:42:46Speaker 6: that he is the adamantine son. So that's another way
- 1:42:50Speaker 6: to understand it like he's forged in hellfire, but he's
- 1:42:53Speaker 6: a little more powerful than that So you can see
- 1:42:55Speaker 6: there's like a redemptive You could call it like a
- 1:42:58Speaker 6: buddhist arc or a theosophical arc but I think that
- 1:43:01Speaker 6: also parallels like the the guy has to draw his
- 1:43:04Speaker 6: power the evil sorcerer has to draw his powers from
- 1:43:06Speaker 6: like a worldly spirit a spirit that doesn't is not
- 1:43:09Speaker 6: omnipotent is not Omnipresent just has a goal to become
- 1:43:14Speaker 6: like i don't know more of this earth or whatever
- 1:43:17Speaker 6: but the the golden child he sort of transcends all
- 1:43:21Speaker 6: that he's sort of above it he's not worldly so
- 1:43:24Speaker 6: that's kind of what the dagger also represents you could
- 1:43:26Speaker 6: say real.
- 1:43:27Speaker 4: Quick and the chosen one can wield the dagger too.
- 1:43:29Speaker 5: Right i don't know can yeah yeah you can that's.
- 1:43:34Speaker 3: The whole measurement right oh victor wong's like well we'll
- 1:43:37Speaker 3: find out if you can get that dagger bud if
- 1:43:39Speaker 3: you're up to the challenge golden.
- 1:43:42Speaker 5: Child Real quick, too, even when I had covered the
- 1:43:44Speaker 5: movie From Hell, I showed symbolism in that about Janice.
- 1:43:49Speaker 5: And that's all about slicing motherfuckers up, too, with shit.
- 1:43:55Speaker 2: That's a good one to do a breakdown on because
- 1:43:57Speaker 2: there's a ton of stuff in there. It's one of
- 1:44:01Speaker 2: my favorite Johnny Depps, actually. I love that one. So
- 1:44:06Speaker 2: what do you guys think about him eating those little
- 1:44:08Speaker 2: twigs throughout the whole movie? Do you think that's significant
- 1:44:12Speaker 2: in a way?
- 1:44:13Speaker 3: Oh, good point. Yes.
- 1:44:14Speaker 5: One thing I was going to bring up, too, with
- 1:44:15Speaker 5: the whole blood stuff, it even goes back to some
- 1:44:19Speaker 5: guy in Pedocles from like 500 B.C. He was even
- 1:44:22Speaker 5: stating that if you want to do magical stuff, you're
- 1:44:25Speaker 5: going to have to stop taking in blood. You're going
- 1:44:28Speaker 5: to have to start kind of eating like a vegetarian diet.
- 1:44:31Speaker 5: And blood would be like, it would just be a
- 1:44:34Speaker 5: bad thing. It would make you dirty. I can't think
- 1:44:37Speaker 5: of the word right now.
- 1:44:38Speaker 3: Well, that's what the Azirite would make him dirty.
- 1:44:44Speaker 4: He'd be immortal, right?
- 1:44:45Speaker 3: He would be of the earth.
- 1:44:46Speaker 5: Yeah, and he goes on about eating, like, you know,
- 1:44:50Speaker 5: stuff like that. So it makes sense that the kid's, like,
- 1:44:52Speaker 5: eating a plant. You know, he's eating a vegetarian diet,
- 1:44:55Speaker 5: in my opinion.
- 1:44:56Speaker 2: Literally eating, like, one leaf a day. For several days.
- 1:45:03Speaker 3: And he can really do a lot of things to
- 1:45:05Speaker 3: solve that problem with his magical wizard abilities, right?
- 1:45:07Speaker 6: Yeah.
- 1:45:08Speaker 3: We saw him make a dancing Pepsi can. Come on,
- 1:45:11Speaker 3: get out of here. This guy can find some food.
- 1:45:12Speaker 5: I even wondered about that, too, with the eating. In
- 1:45:18Speaker 5: my opinion, I would think that maybe your senses... This
- 1:45:23Speaker 5: is hard to explain, but your body's going to have
- 1:45:25Speaker 5: to start paying... To have a magical experience, you're going
- 1:45:28Speaker 5: to have to slip out a little bit. And I guess, like,
- 1:45:30Speaker 5: what if, like, if you're thinking about if you're putting
- 1:45:32Speaker 5: stuff back into your body, it's going to have to
- 1:45:34Speaker 5: pay attention. Like, your stomach's going to have to start
- 1:45:37Speaker 5: paying attention to the food. This is really hard and
- 1:45:39Speaker 5: deep what I'm trying to explain here. But I do think, like,
- 1:45:42Speaker 5: maybe they can. Yeah, it's almost like there's nothing there
- 1:45:47Speaker 5: for your body to have to actually spend any energy.
- 1:45:49Speaker 6: Sure.
- 1:45:50Speaker 4: So you can concentrate the energy on magical stuff.
- 1:45:53Speaker 6: Yes.
- 1:45:55Speaker 3: That makes sense.
- 1:45:56Speaker 2: Yeah, that does make sense.
- 1:45:58Speaker 7: I didn't.
- 1:45:58Speaker 2: I put in my notes to ask you guys about
- 1:46:01Speaker 2: it because I couldn't figure out what it meant because.
- 1:46:04Speaker 3: He just kept this.
- 1:46:06Speaker 2: Little twig thing in his pocket and he'd pull it
- 1:46:09Speaker 2: out and he'd just eat a twig a day.
- 1:46:10Speaker 5: I thought it was like a mint leaf as a kid.
- 1:46:14Speaker 9: Right.
- 1:46:14Speaker 2: I was like, this is obviously He's like.
- 1:46:16Speaker 4: Gnawing on something like a panda bear, right?
- 1:46:18Speaker 5: I was like, oh, it's like that stuff they put
- 1:46:21Speaker 5: in gum to make it, you know.
- 1:46:25Speaker 4: So, We, we haven't, he went on quite a journey
- 1:46:29Speaker 4: to get that dagger.
- 1:46:30Speaker 3: I'm assuming there's some, some elements of this journey that
- 1:46:35Speaker 3: have some deeper understanding. So old Chandler Yerrell there goes
- 1:46:40Speaker 3: to Tibet. Well, technically he was against Mammoth Lakes, California,
- 1:46:43Speaker 3: but you know, they did a good job at making
- 1:46:45Speaker 3: it look like Tibet, but got a clip for us
- 1:46:47Speaker 3: here in that, in that journey on to get this
- 1:46:49Speaker 3: year dagger.
- 1:47:07Speaker 11: That's the dude that took.
- 1:47:11Speaker 5: My money.
- 1:47:17Speaker 10: We have come to ask for the sacred cross dagger
- 1:47:20Speaker 10: of Ajanti.
- 1:47:22Speaker 8: For what reason?
- 1:47:24Speaker 10: For the golden child.
- 1:47:30Speaker 3: So that's the sacred cross.
- 1:47:32Speaker 4: Dagger of Ajanti.
- 1:47:32Speaker 2: Oh, it cut out right before the funny part.
- 1:47:37Speaker 3: I got that coming up Julia don't worry about it
- 1:47:40Speaker 3: so that's the sacred cross dagger of Satan huh.
- 1:47:45Speaker 6: Well he's only Satan when he's like all over the
- 1:47:48Speaker 6: place when he's single pointed in his will then he
- 1:47:52Speaker 6: reaches apotheosis he becomes like you could okay I'm gonna
- 1:47:55Speaker 6: use like a word it's gonna get me in trouble
- 1:47:56Speaker 6: but I'm just gonna say it anyway he becomes Christ
- 1:47:59Speaker 6: like if you wanna say it like that you can
- 1:48:02Speaker 6: say it like that it's okay.
- 1:48:03Speaker 3: Sure It's okay. Yeah, it's okay. So what are we
- 1:48:06Speaker 3: looking at here with this whole scene? Before we get
- 1:48:08Speaker 3: to the I didn't leave out the funny part, Julia,
- 1:48:10Speaker 3: trust me, I got that here. What are we looking
- 1:48:11Speaker 3: at here with this whole scene he's walking into spinning these, uh,
- 1:48:15Speaker 3: these pillars and, you know, talking to this guy who's
- 1:48:17Speaker 3: this wizard fellow slash bird. What are y'all's thoughts on that?
- 1:48:25Speaker 5: Say that again.
- 1:48:27Speaker 3: The whole scene he walks into here with this temple
- 1:48:29Speaker 3: and he's got to spend his pillars and he's talking
- 1:48:32Speaker 3: to the wizard bird fella, you know, egg shin.
- 1:48:34Speaker 2: Mm hmm.
- 1:48:37Speaker 3: What's all this about and then why would this why
- 1:48:38Speaker 3: would this knife be housed there you know what i
- 1:48:40Speaker 3: mean like why are these the keepers of the knife
- 1:48:41Speaker 3: is that what we're looking at here these monks.
- 1:48:46Speaker 5: Yeah uh i don't know i saw that part of
- 1:48:49Speaker 5: like the hero's journey kind of that sense.
- 1:48:52Speaker 2: I put that it was the hero's journey in my
- 1:48:54Speaker 2: notes but i grouped this scene in with like him
- 1:48:59Speaker 2: having to carry the water and.
- 1:49:01Speaker 3: The That's what I was getting at.
- 1:49:03Speaker 2: Going across the bridge and doing all. So, I mean,
- 1:49:07Speaker 2: I grouped this scene in with the scene that follows
- 1:49:11Speaker 2: as the hero's journey part of the story, which the
- 1:49:16Speaker 2: hero's journey, I mean, honestly, Christ falls into the hero's
- 1:49:20Speaker 2: journey thing, right? So I don't think it's bad to
- 1:49:24Speaker 2: say that. I think it's like an archetype.
- 1:49:26Speaker 3: You're welcome to say that, Julia. You and Jen both
- 1:49:28Speaker 3: can make Christ references here on Operation GCD. It's It's
- 1:49:32Speaker 3: not banned.
- 1:49:32Speaker 4: It's not censored. Well, I'm a Christian, so I can
- 1:49:35Speaker 4: say that.
- 1:49:36Speaker 3: He's dead, I think.
- 1:49:37Speaker 2: Huh?
- 1:49:39Speaker 3: I said even Noomsie won't mind. He's dead, I think.
- 1:49:42Speaker 8: Oh, really?
- 1:49:42Speaker 2: I always thought he was a good-looking guy. I didn't
- 1:49:44Speaker 2: know he was dead.
- 1:49:46Speaker 3: Oh, the actor, I think, is alive. He played a
- 1:49:48Speaker 3: very good villain in Last Action Hero as well, but
- 1:49:50Speaker 3: here in the film, Noomsie does not meet a good end.
- 1:49:54Speaker 8: No.
- 1:49:54Speaker 4: And again, when we're... I know.
- 1:49:56Speaker 3: There's a lot of Eastern Mysticism stuff, but I mean,
- 1:49:57Speaker 3: it's hard to not see this through a you know,
- 1:50:00Speaker 3: very Christian satanic lens of the satanic panic era, right?
- 1:50:04Speaker 2: Well, I am a Christian, so I feel like that's
- 1:50:07Speaker 2: the only lens that I look through a lot of times.
- 1:50:10Speaker 2: But I mean, I always love to talk to people
- 1:50:13Speaker 2: like Jen and Nick because they get me to look
- 1:50:15Speaker 2: outside of my own perspective on things and to understand
- 1:50:20Speaker 2: like we can all be right at the same time.
- 1:50:24Speaker 2: But it's like I always say, it's like a five
- 1:50:25Speaker 2: layer burrito. And there's many... layers to it there's like
- 1:50:31Speaker 2: many things.
- 1:50:32Speaker 3: I'm an alien christian is that does that does that
- 1:50:34Speaker 3: work out well in this in this perspectives.
- 1:50:37Speaker 6: You can map it all to the tree for formerly
- 1:50:40Speaker 6: it doesn't really matter you can honestly look at everything
- 1:50:44Speaker 6: like caballo like you like what julia said you can
- 1:50:47Speaker 6: just understand that caballo sickly and then it's no problem
- 1:50:50Speaker 6: so you can kind of look at all the systems
- 1:50:52Speaker 6: and say like, okay, this is what this prefers and
- 1:50:54Speaker 6: this is how to get there. But you don't have
- 1:50:56Speaker 6: to agree. It just is like, you can look at
- 1:50:58Speaker 6: it and say, yeah, this is the relative truth. So
- 1:51:01Speaker 6: you're fine with it. So that's how I feel about
- 1:51:04Speaker 6: like most other religions, not all of them, but like
- 1:51:06Speaker 6: Christianity for sure. Like it's a Christian Kabbalah makes perfect
- 1:51:09Speaker 6: sense to me. There's it's no problem.
- 1:51:12Speaker 3: Jokes aside and dragon rapes aside. I think, you know,
- 1:51:16Speaker 3: when I was getting out with the, the Satan figure here,
- 1:51:18Speaker 3: new new see here, You know, they obviously have these
- 1:51:22Speaker 3: satanic cult elements, you know, tied in here, like we
- 1:51:24Speaker 3: were talking about before with the biker gangs, the kidnappings,
- 1:51:28Speaker 3: you know, these common tropes and understandings of these real-world
- 1:51:33Speaker 3: situations that transpired or depicted here in this film. But
- 1:51:37Speaker 3: what I always like to say also in those regards is, like,
- 1:51:40Speaker 3: those people that are doing these things, they don't believe
- 1:51:41Speaker 3: in Satan also. That's what I was getting at. That's
- 1:51:45Speaker 3: what I was getting at. So you really aren't a.
- 1:51:50Speaker 2: You really aren't an alien Christian or whatever you just said?
- 1:51:53Speaker 4: Formerly, formerly.
- 1:51:55Speaker 2: Does that mean that Jesus was an extraterrestrial or what
- 1:51:58Speaker 2: does that mean?
- 1:52:00Speaker 3: Yeah, well, you know, God lives on Kolob. That's a
- 1:52:02Speaker 3: different story altogether. It's near the star Sirius.
- 1:52:07Speaker 2: A serious guy, huh?
- 1:52:09Speaker 4: Yeah, very, very much so.
- 1:52:11Speaker 3: That was the first 22 years of my life. I
- 1:52:14Speaker 3: recently just surpassed the, you know, I've now longer been
- 1:52:18Speaker 3: not a Mormon than I was.
- 1:52:19Speaker 4: A Mormon, so.
- 1:52:20Speaker 2: Oh, Mormonism, huh?
- 1:52:24Speaker 6: Well, Heidi knows this. Sorry, JJ.
- 1:52:28Speaker 4: You're good, dude.
- 1:52:29Speaker 6: I just want to say that Heidi already knows this,
- 1:52:31Speaker 6: but I'm very fascinated by how Mormons think of the
- 1:52:36Speaker 6: tree and what they're doing. I don't want to be
- 1:52:40Speaker 6: a Mormon. I'm not a Mormon or anything like that.
- 1:52:42Speaker 4: I'll sign you up right now, Jen.
- 1:52:44Speaker 3: Let's make it happen.
- 1:52:45Speaker 4: You want to be a Mormon?
- 1:52:48Speaker 6: I don't know anything about it, but I'm just saying
- 1:52:50Speaker 6: I find it. I just like it for the Kabbalah.
- 1:52:55Speaker 5: He's already on the mothership, bro.
- 1:52:59Speaker 2: We're all on the mothership.
- 1:53:02Speaker 3: Let's blast off.
- 1:53:03Speaker 4: Let's check out that funny scene here, though, from where he.
- 1:53:05Speaker 5: Oh, you're going to do another scene? I love it.
- 1:53:09Speaker 5: There it goes.
- 1:53:12Speaker 8: Let him ask it.
- 1:53:25Speaker 9: I said, I want the knife.
- 1:53:37Speaker 8: Let him ask again. I want the knife.
- 1:53:55Speaker 5: Please.
- 1:54:16Speaker 8: Only a man whose heart is pure can wield a knife.
- 1:54:19Speaker 9: And if you're such a man, you will have it.
- 1:54:21Speaker 3: I love that you.
- 1:54:26Speaker 2: Included clips too, by the way, because that's what makes
- 1:54:30Speaker 2: the movie breakdowns the best.
- 1:54:32Speaker 3: I agree.
- 1:54:33Speaker 4: I totally agree. Apparently YouTube does not agree though.
- 1:54:36Speaker 3: Apparently YouTube's not liking the use of the clips, but
- 1:54:39Speaker 3: I totally.
- 1:54:40Speaker 2: Agree with you. I was hoping you would include the
- 1:54:44Speaker 2: clip where he's at that medicinal shop and looking at
- 1:54:48Speaker 2: all the herbs and he's like, oh yeah, that's good
- 1:54:51Speaker 2: to keep the yang up. And he's like, nothing wrong
- 1:54:55Speaker 2: with my yang.
- 1:54:55Speaker 3: No, I didn't get that one. I know the scene
- 1:55:00Speaker 3: you're talking about, though. No, it's some classic 80s Murphy, right?
- 1:55:04Speaker 3: It's some classic 80s Murphy, but This idea, though, of
- 1:55:08Speaker 3: this machination of this kind of satanic elements cult stuff
- 1:55:12Speaker 3: in Los Angeles with this Tibetan Buddhism stuff, to me,
- 1:55:15Speaker 3: just rings back to my, you know, digging through the
- 1:55:20Speaker 3: thoughts in my brain hole here. I recall Ed Sanders files,
- 1:55:25Speaker 3: you know, the author of The Family there, the Manson family,
- 1:55:28Speaker 3: the actual good book on the Manson family contemporary to
- 1:55:32Speaker 3: the actual crime. It's not the Bugliosi nonsense, but Ed
- 1:55:35Speaker 3: Sanders wrote his, you know, at the same time was writing,
- 1:55:38Speaker 3: writing his book there in the early seventies. And I
- 1:55:40Speaker 3: think it was published in 74, but Sanders investigation was
- 1:55:45Speaker 3: yielding some, you know, results that seem to indicate there
- 1:55:48Speaker 3: was a machination of Buddhist ideas, thelemic ideas and theosophical ideas,
- 1:55:57Speaker 3: I believe, into a cult faction that was also a
- 1:56:01Speaker 3: Kali-worshipping cult faction out of Japan called the Shingon Cult.
- 1:56:05Speaker 4: Not Chin-gon, but Shin-gon with the S.
- 1:56:08Speaker 6: So this totally correlates to what I know of certain...
- 1:56:13Speaker 6: We'll call them... I guess they would have been process
- 1:56:16Speaker 6: offshoots or whatever. That's what this.
- 1:56:19Speaker 3: Was supposedly, right? The 4-Pi allegedly was the 4-Pi Shingon Cult.
- 1:56:23Speaker 6: That's right.
- 1:56:23Speaker 5: So, I mean.
- 1:56:27Speaker 6: You know, this is the thing. In Nepal, during this
- 1:56:32Speaker 6: whole post-war period, there have been Kali kind of cults
- 1:56:36Speaker 6: that are like parts Talima, just like you're saying. They're
- 1:56:38Speaker 6: like parts Vajrayana. They're parts Hindu, like Tantra. They're parts Satanism.
- 1:56:44Speaker 6: They're parts process. It's kind of a weird blend, but
- 1:56:48Speaker 6: it's like taking the most transgressive elements of all of them.
- 1:56:51Speaker 6: So pretty much that's what I... kind of understand of
- 1:56:55Speaker 6: them is that they're just like really so Kali and
- 1:56:58Speaker 6: Tantra is related to Saturn so that would immediately place
- 1:57:01Speaker 6: her in Banah so if you're looking at the tree
- 1:57:05Speaker 6: as like a 10 or 11 sphered structure she would
- 1:57:09Speaker 6: never go at Kether she would always go at Banah
- 1:57:12Speaker 6: if you're really understanding what she is so they're looking
- 1:57:15Speaker 6: at it as like this this this way to like
- 1:57:19Speaker 6: It's kind of like the Black Cube Matrix. Everybody loves
- 1:57:21Speaker 6: that kind of thing. That's kind of what it is,
- 1:57:24Speaker 6: but you're putting yourself in the box. You're putting yourself
- 1:57:27Speaker 6: in the cube. You're densifying the world around you. And
- 1:57:30Speaker 6: so Nick brought up at the very beginning, we were
- 1:57:32Speaker 6: talking about Golden Child. I don't know, he said there's
- 1:57:35Speaker 6: a geometry of something, and he said it was related
- 1:57:38Speaker 6: to Vishnu. So Vishnu is related to Binah and related
- 1:57:42Speaker 6: to Saturn very closely. So there's this relationship that you
- 1:57:46Speaker 6: can sort of, in Vaishnavism, which is a kind of Hinduism,
- 1:57:50Speaker 6: you pray to Vishnu through bhakti. So it's like considered
- 1:57:55Speaker 6: to be like devotional love. You pray so hard that
- 1:57:58Speaker 6: eventually it will liberate you or eject you from the
- 1:58:01Speaker 6: cube or whatever it is. But it will take, it
- 1:58:04Speaker 6: supposedly will take you millions of lifetimes. So in a
- 1:58:07Speaker 6: more tantric way, you would never get stuck here. but
- 1:58:11Speaker 6: obviously these people you know they're really fixated on Kali
- 1:58:15Speaker 6: so that would be obviously a big problem from a
- 1:58:18Speaker 6: Buddhist perspective because you wouldn't just fixate on a deity
- 1:58:21Speaker 6: or their name or you know their ferocious presentation those
- 1:58:24Speaker 6: are just conceptual ideas.
- 1:58:26Speaker 3: You're saying this is a unique more of an extremist
- 1:58:28Speaker 3: view of these situations right yeah.
- 1:58:30Speaker 6: It's an annihilationist very extremist very very non-kino if you
- 1:58:36Speaker 6: will non-kino because it's not about embracing love or like
- 1:58:40Speaker 6: the beauty of maya the beauty of the garden or
- 1:58:43Speaker 6: like you know connections with other people it's like kind of.
- 1:58:46Speaker 3: The tracking gin i'm catching on to this keynote business
- 1:58:48Speaker 3: i'll get there eventually.
- 1:58:49Speaker 6: But you're you're there so The Kino thing is to
- 1:58:53Speaker 6: love the world and like accept it for what it is.
- 1:58:56Speaker 6: And then their view is to like, they're kind of Calvinist.
- 1:58:59Speaker 6: They're like, we're going to degrade the world. We're going
- 1:59:02Speaker 6: to do all this sin in the world and we're
- 1:59:04Speaker 6: going to make it like from the ashes. We're going
- 1:59:07Speaker 6: to remake it, but you don't really get to control
- 1:59:09Speaker 6: the cosmic cycle. That's a more Buddhist view. Obviously they
- 1:59:12Speaker 6: do believe that they can like influence the cosmic cycle,
- 1:59:15Speaker 6: but I don't personally believe they can.
- 1:59:19Speaker 2: JJ, have you heard of the Thuggy cult that was
- 1:59:22Speaker 2: doing all the Kali worshipping stuff?
- 1:59:26Speaker 4: I think you told me about it. Somebody told me
- 1:59:28Speaker 4: about it.
- 1:59:28Speaker 2: I thought I did. Yeah, I just covered them. I'm
- 1:59:32Speaker 2: doing a new series on different cults. It's called Into
- 1:59:38Speaker 2: the Cultiverse. And I covered the Thuggy cults. And they
- 1:59:43Speaker 2: were like Cali worshipers, whatever, whatever. But if you really
- 1:59:45Speaker 2: look into it, because like I always say, there's like
- 1:59:48Speaker 2: a five-layer burrito.
- 1:59:50Speaker 4: All this food talk, I'm getting real hungry.
- 1:59:53Speaker 3: Chow mein, burritos.
- 1:59:54Speaker 2: Dude, I love Taco Bell.
- 1:59:56Speaker 6: Shit.
- 1:59:58Speaker 2: If you go all the way back into history with
- 2:00:01Speaker 2: the thuggy cults, they could have possibly been assassins under
- 2:00:07Speaker 2: the employ of the Brahmin family. And I know we
- 2:00:11Speaker 2: just spoke about the Brahmin family in connection with Tuesday
- 2:00:14Speaker 2: Welt and the Boston Brahmins. And so like, yeah, there's an.
- 2:00:19Speaker 4: Aspect of- We talking Indian Brahmins? Because that's Kamala Harris.
- 2:00:22Speaker 2: People right there. Yeah, that's the same Brahmins that I'm
- 2:00:25Speaker 2: talking about. So yeah, there's a level of like Kali
- 2:00:29Speaker 2: worshiping or whatever. But if you really look under the surface,
- 2:00:33Speaker 2: it's all tied up in these weird royal bloodline families
- 2:00:36Speaker 2: and stuff. So it's like you said about the Manson thing.
- 2:00:41Speaker 2: it's more than just like the Bugliosi oh they hated
- 2:00:44Speaker 2: cops or whatever the fuck he was trying it started
- 2:00:47Speaker 2: in a race war it's like no let's let's really
- 2:00:50Speaker 2: look at this peel the layers back and look at
- 2:00:53Speaker 2: what's underneath.
- 2:00:54Speaker 3: I think Bugliosi's theory was they wore too much patchouli.
- 2:00:57Speaker 2: Oil oh my god they.
- 2:01:03Speaker 3: Went mad from the patchouli oil they had mad patchouli
- 2:01:06Speaker 3: oil disease they had.
- 2:01:07Speaker 2: Patchouli oil BO stank.
- 2:01:13Speaker 6: I like patchouli so I'll stand.
- 2:01:15Speaker 3: Up for it aww Jin I'm sorry no it's totally
- 2:01:20Speaker 3: okay I actually like vetiver better so I'll tell myself
- 2:01:23Speaker 3: a little.
- 2:01:24Speaker 6: But um no I mean you're totally right both of
- 2:01:28Speaker 6: you guys like you know there is there's like deeper
- 2:01:31Speaker 6: connections like Vajrayana has a lot of connections to some
- 2:01:33Speaker 6: of these obviously NXIVM and other things and it's kind
- 2:01:36Speaker 6: of like the old ideas that we lived in the
- 2:01:40Speaker 6: Kali Yuga, like bringing up this idea of Kali, it's
- 2:01:42Speaker 6: not directly one-to-one related to the goddess, but you can
- 2:01:46Speaker 6: use it as an archetypal metaphor. So she's like very destructive.
- 2:01:50Speaker 6: She's destroying the old system kind of, but it's also
- 2:01:54Speaker 6: bringing things in. So her power is really magnetization, but
- 2:01:57Speaker 6: it's the destruction through time. So you can think of
- 2:02:01Speaker 6: it like traveling through space, you're degrading, you're getting older,
- 2:02:04Speaker 6: exactly that same thing. And then you're going to, go
- 2:02:07Speaker 6: to the carnal ground and become a skeleton and you
- 2:02:10Speaker 6: know like take on a new rebirth eventually so that's
- 2:02:13Speaker 6: what she's doing it's kind of like bringing you through
- 2:02:15Speaker 6: the cosmic cycle so like julia was talking about these
- 2:02:18Speaker 6: like brahmin families a lot of the brahmin cast so
- 2:02:21Speaker 6: it's like a birth cast that you're born into they
- 2:02:25Speaker 6: they do believe in this vishnu figure So they will
- 2:02:29Speaker 6: outwardly pray to the Vishnu figure, but there is also
- 2:02:32Speaker 6: a secret tantra idea that you will do a Shakta
- 2:02:36Speaker 6: tantra or goddess tantra secretly at night, even though you
- 2:02:40Speaker 6: pray to this very orthodox, heroic... kind of like good
- 2:02:46Speaker 6: guy you know he's the hero of the bhagavad gita
- 2:02:50Speaker 6: he's like you know he's the king of heaven but
- 2:02:53Speaker 6: at night you're doing something more transgressive more tantric more
- 2:02:57Speaker 6: secret mystery cult stuff so yeah i think there's a
- 2:03:00Speaker 6: really interesting idea with that what julia was saying it's
- 2:03:03Speaker 6: like kind of always like that there's an inverse and
- 2:03:05Speaker 6: then there's like it depends on how you look at
- 2:03:07Speaker 6: it like from what perspective.
- 2:03:09Speaker 4: You mean you gotta look at it.
- 2:03:13Speaker 2: Both ways You gotta look at it.
- 2:03:17Speaker 3: No, I think it's an interesting one.
- 2:03:19Speaker 4: I was just looking. We're still up on YouTube there, Nick.
- 2:03:21Speaker 5: Yeah, we're good now. It's back.
- 2:03:25Speaker 2: Did they kick us off?
- 2:03:27Speaker 5: No, but they kept going for a while.
- 2:03:29Speaker 4: I won't play another clip just in case.
- 2:03:31Speaker 5: I'll probably pull it down after this.
- 2:03:35Speaker 2: Because of the clips, those bitches.
- 2:03:37Speaker 5: Are you going to play another one?
- 2:03:39Speaker 3: No, I said I won't since we're still up. I
- 2:03:41Speaker 3: was going to if we weren't, but yeah. I'm looking
- 2:03:43Speaker 3: on both of our channels. We're still up.
- 2:03:45Speaker 12: Yeah.
- 2:03:47Speaker 3: Um, programming out here, but let's, uh, it's a good,
- 2:03:50Speaker 3: it's a good point to wrap this up. So, um, what, uh,
- 2:03:54Speaker 3: may I, uh, thank you all for your time this evening.
- 2:03:57Speaker 3: First and foremost, I appreciate y'all joining me to do a,
- 2:04:00Speaker 3: an occult and or esoteric review of the golden child. Um,
- 2:04:05Speaker 3: obviously I kind of gave the spoiler alert earlier, old nips.
- 2:04:08Speaker 3: He dies courtesy of that dagger. And, uh, And any
- 2:04:13Speaker 3: closing comments I can pass off to y'all, starting with
- 2:04:16Speaker 3: you there, Julia. I appreciate your time, ma'am. Great conversation.
- 2:04:20Speaker 2: Thank you. Yeah, I just have a few closing ideas
- 2:04:23Speaker 2: for the movie. And thanks for inviting me.
- 2:04:27Speaker 3: Don't feel rushed. Don't feel rushed at all. Absolutely.
- 2:04:31Speaker 9: Oh, yeah.
- 2:04:31Speaker 2: I was just going to say, I noticed that the
- 2:04:36Speaker 2: movie begins with him resurrecting a bird and then the
- 2:04:40Speaker 2: movie or the movie begins with a resurrection and ends
- 2:04:43Speaker 2: with a resurrection because he brings back the moon deity
- 2:04:47Speaker 2: if you will or the moon goddess he brings her
- 2:04:50Speaker 2: back so it starts and ends with a resurrection also
- 2:04:56Speaker 2: at the end of the movie he is bringing monarch
- 2:05:02Speaker 2: butterflies back to life so I don't know if anybody
- 2:05:07Speaker 2: else caught that, but of course, you know, the whole
- 2:05:09Speaker 2: Monarch thing. So I thought that was pretty significant. And
- 2:05:14Speaker 2: then the house where they're keeping the golden child. has
- 2:05:19Speaker 2: black and white tile floors. So those were some of
- 2:05:22Speaker 2: the main things at the end of the movie that
- 2:05:25Speaker 2: I thought would be cool to mention for this breakdown.
- 2:05:29Speaker 2: But yeah, like I said, I've been looking for somebody
- 2:05:33Speaker 2: to want to talk about this for a couple years now,
- 2:05:37Speaker 2: just because I feel like there's so many little tidbits
- 2:05:40Speaker 2: in there that are cool, and it's a hilarious movie.
- 2:05:43Speaker 5: For sure.
- 2:05:44Speaker 2: And it's for me, I like to cover nostalgic childhood
- 2:05:48Speaker 2: movies that I loved. And this is one of them
- 2:05:50Speaker 2: for sure. I watched it all the time when I
- 2:05:53Speaker 2: was a kid. So thanks for having me.
- 2:05:55Speaker 6: Absolutely.
- 2:05:57Speaker 4: Thank you for joining us.
- 2:05:59Speaker 3: I feel the same way about the nostalgic movies of
- 2:06:01Speaker 3: my childhood, you know, and this is up there with
- 2:06:03Speaker 3: Goonies for me. This one is.
- 2:06:05Speaker 2: I love Goonies.
- 2:06:09Speaker 3: For sure.
- 2:06:10Speaker 4: No, thanks again, Nick.
- 2:06:13Speaker 3: Do you have any closing statements on your review of
- 2:06:17Speaker 3: the film or any thoughts or any plugs you'd like
- 2:06:20Speaker 3: to discuss here?
- 2:06:23Speaker 5: No. I mean, I was excited we got to do
- 2:06:25Speaker 5: it because I definitely think it's a deeply occulted movie
- 2:06:28Speaker 5: for sure. Yeah. I thought this was great. I thought
- 2:06:32Speaker 5: it was great. Everybody had great stuff to say. Yeah.
- 2:06:37Speaker 5: Besides that, for me, the one thing that I just
- 2:06:40Speaker 5: do want to push is, which I think we're all
- 2:06:42Speaker 5: probably saying it anyway, I do think there's a Kabbalistic tale.
- 2:06:46Speaker 5: There's Kabbalistic symbolism in this movie, for sure. I think
- 2:06:49Speaker 5: you can pay attention and look at it with the
- 2:06:52Speaker 5: colors and certain symbols and the male and female characters.
- 2:06:55Speaker 5: I think you'll see it. That's it.
- 2:07:00Speaker 4: Nice. Anything coming up on the occult rejects?
- 2:07:04Speaker 8: Oh, yeah, again.
- 2:07:05Speaker 5: Let's see. I can tell you a few things that
- 2:07:07Speaker 5: are coming out. Oh, yeah, we got the Mormon Mafia
- 2:07:09Speaker 5: coming out on audio. Red Heifer this Friday. We got
- 2:07:12Speaker 5: Sumerian Deities next week with Gray Pilled and the Coral
- 2:07:17Speaker 5: Castle with Library of the Untold coming out soon, too.
- 2:07:20Speaker 4: Don't forget about Vampire Lady.
- 2:07:22Speaker 5: Yes.
- 2:07:22Speaker 4: That's the vampire.
- 2:07:24Speaker 3: Yes. She was a nice vampire.
- 2:07:26Speaker 4: She didn't try to eat anybody.
- 2:07:27Speaker 5: Yeah, that will drop on audio as well. For people
- 2:07:29Speaker 5: who have not heard that yet, that's already been done,
- 2:07:32Speaker 5: and I think it's still out on the live. check
- 2:07:35Speaker 5: it out now nice yeah i'm leaving that up.
- 2:07:42Speaker 3: All right well i appreciate your time sir jen appreciate
- 2:07:44Speaker 3: your time sir any closing thoughts on the the 1986
- 2:07:48Speaker 3: cinematic masterpiece the golden child so.
- 2:07:51Speaker 6: If you research ken mcleod he wrote a new book
- 2:07:55Speaker 6: i mentioned it right at the beginning magic of Adriana
- 2:07:57Speaker 6: he talks about all the stuff that Nick and I
- 2:08:00Speaker 6: just discussed like a lot he he understands Kabbalah as
- 2:08:03Speaker 6: well like or he just he's able to like, the
- 2:08:07Speaker 6: system doesn't matter. He just kind of gets, he's had
- 2:08:10Speaker 6: the experience, so it doesn't really matter. He's just describing something.
- 2:08:13Speaker 6: So everybody can, I'm not recommending him necessarily, but if
- 2:08:16Speaker 6: you look into his background, he actually has a really
- 2:08:19Speaker 6: interesting teacher. I'm sure JJ would find it really fascinating
- 2:08:23Speaker 6: and who was sort of the object of his own,
- 2:08:26Speaker 6: perhaps a scandal we'll say in the past, but I'm
- 2:08:30Speaker 6: not casting aspersions on anyone. I'm just saying it is
- 2:08:33Speaker 6: kind of interesting. But he is a very interesting teacher,
- 2:08:36Speaker 6: and I think he has some profound things to say.
- 2:08:39Speaker 6: And I think he obviously consulted... I think he showed
- 2:08:42Speaker 6: them how to use the Kabbalistic ideas, but make sure
- 2:08:46Speaker 6: it was... As much as it is syncretic, I think
- 2:08:49Speaker 6: it keeps to... It's a Vajra film, you could say.
- 2:08:52Speaker 6: It really has that aesthetic, but it also keeps true
- 2:08:55Speaker 6: to a lot of the ideas. So I want to
- 2:08:58Speaker 6: just say thank you so much to JJ. Thank you
- 2:09:00Speaker 6: so much to Nick. Always bring me on Nick. Really
- 2:09:03Speaker 6: appreciate it. And of course, Julia, I've, we've worked together.
- 2:09:07Speaker 6: I think this is our fourth time, but we've never,
- 2:09:09Speaker 6: we spoke a little bit with Celeste. So I will
- 2:09:12Speaker 6: end on this. I told you waning. So waning is
- 2:09:16Speaker 6: more my thinking, whereas like you're trying to like cast
- 2:09:20Speaker 6: the sort of like the bad luck into the past.
- 2:09:23Speaker 3: Are these the barber tips?
- 2:09:25Speaker 2: I love these tips. I love these tips.
- 2:09:28Speaker 6: So if it's a waning moon, you cut your hair
- 2:09:31Speaker 6: and then you burn, like, as I said, you can
- 2:09:33Speaker 6: burn it. So that's like casting the old you into
- 2:09:36Speaker 6: the past. Or if you want like to feel more beautiful,
- 2:09:40Speaker 6: that's a good maybe word to use. You could do
- 2:09:43Speaker 6: it on a waxing moon because that would like sort
- 2:09:45Speaker 6: of empower you. So it's like either idea. I'm more
- 2:09:48Speaker 6: of a waning person just because I always think like that,
- 2:09:51Speaker 6: but maybe it was good. It's good to consider balance.
- 2:09:54Speaker 2: Well, I will say this, and I'm so glad you
- 2:09:57Speaker 2: brought it up again. God bless you, because my appointment's tomorrow,
- 2:10:02Speaker 2: and it is a waning moon. Over the last year,
- 2:10:09Speaker 2: I've been through a lot, divorce and all kinds of stuff.
- 2:10:12Speaker 2: And so, like, my ex-husband touched this hair, and I
- 2:10:16Speaker 2: want it off my head. I want it cut. I
- 2:10:18Speaker 2: want it gone off of me. I want a new,
- 2:10:21Speaker 2: fresh start. What are you thinking, Mohawk? No, I'm just
- 2:10:26Speaker 2: thinking it's all, at least half of it's got to go.
- 2:10:29Speaker 2: It's got to go. You're pretty frightening looking.
- 2:10:34Speaker 3: Very intimidating. No one want to fuck with you. You're like,
- 2:10:37Speaker 3: oh shit, she's got a mohawk.
- 2:10:40Speaker 2: I could be a ginger mohawk kind of gal. I
- 2:10:43Speaker 2: might do that.
- 2:10:44Speaker 7: I don't know.
- 2:10:44Speaker 2: We'll see. But I'm going to go with the waning
- 2:10:47Speaker 2: moon on this one, Jen, because I need a new me.
- 2:10:51Speaker 2: A new year, new me.
- 2:10:56Speaker 6: Well, I'm glad that I could rectify that because I
- 2:10:59Speaker 6: felt bad leaving you on the waiting thing knowing that
- 2:11:02Speaker 6: there was two, but I didn't really think of it
- 2:11:03Speaker 6: at first. So I'm glad I could correct it. So
- 2:11:07Speaker 6: thank you for giving me that. And of course, thank
- 2:11:08Speaker 6: you to JJ for inviting me to do these occult
