- 0:09Speaker 1: Destroying Wance did True. I'm a check out both True.
- 0:15Speaker 1: Thing is the adults. Hey, everybody, welcome to Conspiracy The Show.
- 0:34Speaker 1: I'm Adam Todd Brown. Who are you.
- 0:36Speaker 2: I'm Olivia Heidar.
- 0:37Speaker 1: And we are your hosts today. For what I thought
- 0:41Speaker 1: was gonna be the first of several episodes and then
- 0:44Speaker 1: multi part yeah, and instead it's gonna be one episode
- 0:49Speaker 1: about one of the most disappointing conspiracy theories I've ever
- 0:52Speaker 1: looked into.
- 0:53Speaker 2: You mean, one of the absolute dumbest things I've everested
- 0:57Speaker 2: hours into.
- 0:58Speaker 1: And like, I know, we've been hitting up against that
- 1:01Speaker 1: a lot lately on this show. Yeah, and I'm sorry,
- 1:04Speaker 1: but if you listen to enough episodes, you know there
- 1:08Speaker 1: are plenty of conspiracies that come across my desk, so
- 1:12Speaker 1: to speak, that after looking into them, I'm like, yeah,
- 1:16Speaker 1: that probably happened.
- 1:17Speaker 2: Yeah, conspiracies happen, and this isn't one of them. Oh no,
- 1:21Speaker 2: absolutely not.
- 1:23Speaker 1: Then anyone who really cares about this topic should be
- 1:27Speaker 1: able to look into it enough to know how much
- 1:29Speaker 1: bullshit this is almost immediately. Oh and it makes me
- 1:33Speaker 1: angry that the people who push this theory don't.
- 1:37Speaker 2: I I it just it's unfathomable to me to find
- 1:41Speaker 2: any aspect of this theory appealing as like on an
- 1:45Speaker 2: intellectual level, because it is presented in such an intellectually
- 1:50Speaker 2: sloppy way.
- 1:51Speaker 1: And it's I should before we yeah, coming in hot today,
- 1:56Speaker 1: I should mention we're talking about the idea that Stanley Kubrick.
- 2:01Speaker 1: One helped film the fake moonlanding footage.
- 2:06Speaker 2: It was fake, but he just didn't help film it.
- 2:08Speaker 1: Right exactly, and two that after that experience, it compelled
- 2:15Speaker 1: him to spend the rest of his career embedding symbology
- 2:20Speaker 1: relating to an Illuminati agenda to push a transhuman agenda
- 2:27Speaker 1: on the world.
- 2:27Speaker 2: And that is that is the reasoning that they say
- 2:30Speaker 2: it's because of his experiences. That's with the.
- 2:34Speaker 1: One of my immediate concerns with this conspiracy is there.
- 2:39Speaker 1: It just goes from Okay, well, Stanley Kubrick filmed the
- 2:44Speaker 1: moon landing footage, to the Illuminati is the one who
- 2:47Speaker 1: made him did it, the one who made him did it,
- 2:50Speaker 1: the one who made him do it, and they are
- 2:53Speaker 1: now like He then spent the rest of his career
- 2:56Speaker 1: trying to tell us that the Illuminati is here controlling
- 3:00Speaker 1: the world. And he did this through secret occult symbols
- 3:05Speaker 1: placed all throughout his movies. And here's the thing. Those
- 3:08Speaker 1: symbols are in his movies, but anything well, but when
- 3:14Speaker 1: you get into the symbols they're talking about their symbols
- 3:18Speaker 1: you see all over the place, and that you would
- 3:21Speaker 1: especially see in the type of movies he's making.
- 3:24Speaker 2: There's just there is just such an inherent logical leap
- 3:28Speaker 2: that needs to be made from Stanley Kuprick is a
- 3:31Speaker 2: guy who included symbolism in his movies for richer thematic
- 3:35Speaker 2: effect to Stanley Kuprick is a guy who included symbols
- 3:39Speaker 2: in his movies to lead to this extremely specific conspiracy
- 3:44Speaker 2: theory as a way of warning or guiding.
- 3:47Speaker 1: And it's it's one of those things where even I
- 3:50Speaker 1: could buy the idea that while Stanley Kubrick was filming
- 3:55Speaker 1: two thousand and one a Space Odyssey, the government could
- 3:58Speaker 1: have come to him and been like, look, if this
- 4:00Speaker 1: doesn't want to work out, we want to show people
- 4:03Speaker 1: something to go along with what they're hearing, So just
- 4:06Speaker 1: whip something up. That doesn't mean there is an Illuminati
- 4:11Speaker 1: agenda to control the world.
- 4:14Speaker 2: I want to I do want to say like this
- 4:16Speaker 2: is one immediately where this theory starts to fall apart, right.
- 4:20Speaker 1: And I let me say one more thing I want
- 4:23Speaker 1: to add to that that I don't think there's any
- 4:26Speaker 1: evidence that Stanley Kubrick was ever asked to film fake
- 4:30Speaker 1: moonlanding foot Absolutely, but that part is the kind of
- 4:34Speaker 1: like fun stunt the government would get up to in
- 4:38Speaker 1: the sixties.
- 4:38Speaker 2: Sure, Like I guess there's but even that falls apart
- 4:42Speaker 2: if you right apply even the slightest bit of pressure
- 4:46Speaker 2: to it, like Friz is, when there's no indication that
- 4:50Speaker 2: when are they saying the moonlanding was shot in relation
- 4:53Speaker 2: to the development of two thousand and one A Space
- 4:56Speaker 2: Odyssey during they're saying it's literally because like one of
- 5:02Speaker 2: the and then he goes they go to the moon
- 5:06Speaker 2: in two thousand and one of Space Odyssey, and I
- 5:09Speaker 2: feel like, if that's when they're shooting the moon landing,
- 5:14Speaker 2: I don't know. It just seems like maybe people would
- 5:17Speaker 2: notice that this movie that just came out last year
- 5:19Speaker 2: has the same moon as the actual moonland Yeah, and.
- 5:24Speaker 1: Why not just fake the moon landing while you're up
- 5:26Speaker 1: there film in two thousand and one space on the
- 5:29Speaker 1: Moon already?
- 5:30Speaker 2: Right, this is the whole thing, and here's the thing
- 5:32Speaker 2: that that joke I just made is a joke in
- 5:36Speaker 2: the article, the comedy article that kicked off this entire
- 5:42Speaker 2: conspiracy theory. Oh wait, this isn't legit.
- 5:45Speaker 1: Can you believe it? I'm shocked. This is less than legitimate.
- 5:50Speaker 1: And that's that because we're going to talk about one
- 5:53Speaker 1: specific person who pushes this theory later in this episode.
- 5:58Speaker 1: And that's my problem is that if you're writing a
- 6:02Speaker 1: book about Stanley Kubrick being approached by the illuminati to
- 6:07Speaker 1: fake the moon landing in twenty fourteen, which is when
- 6:10Speaker 1: this book was written, you have to mention the fact
- 6:13Speaker 1: that the genesis of this theory is a Usenet humor
- 6:19Speaker 1: group article from nineteen ninety five. Now, you know that
- 6:23Speaker 1: may be the case, but that doesn't mean it doesn't
- 6:26Speaker 1: raise some fairly valid points, regardless of whether or not
- 6:28Speaker 1: it was originally intended for humor. It's a good point,
- 6:32Speaker 1: great point, and we'll link to it on the website
- 6:38Speaker 1: on pops dot com. And it basically is the entire theory.
- 6:43Speaker 1: It says that NASA, it just doesn't say the illuminatis right.
- 6:48Speaker 1: It says NASA approached Stanley Kubrick and was like hey,
- 6:52Speaker 1: film some moonlanding stuff, and that because of that he
- 6:57Speaker 1: figured out that there was this Illuminati in and then
- 7:01Speaker 1: went on to plant all these Illuminati symbols and fake
- 7:05Speaker 1: the moon landing. The moon landing thing, I think it's
- 7:08Speaker 1: it's mostly the moon landing thing that comes up in
- 7:11Speaker 1: this article and one of again we'll link to it,
- 7:14Speaker 1: you can go read it. At one point it mentions
- 7:18Speaker 1: that some of the moon landing scenes were filmed at
- 7:22Speaker 1: the Sea of Tranquility, that Stanley Kubrick wasn't there because
- 7:26Speaker 1: of his fear of flying.
- 7:27Speaker 2: Famous famous fear of flying Stanley Kubrick.
- 7:30Speaker 1: Now, if you have not even a basic understanding of
- 7:35Speaker 1: space geography.
- 7:36Speaker 2: Well, the Sea Tranquility, it's what in Spain.
- 7:41Speaker 1: The Spain region of the Moon. It is on the
- 7:45Speaker 1: fucking Moon. So this article was making a very obvious
- 7:49Speaker 1: joke saying, yeah, they even filmed some of it on
- 7:52Speaker 1: the Moon when they faked. And it's like, what bothers
- 7:56Speaker 1: me about the existence of this article is when you
- 8:00Speaker 1: get to people like Clyde Lewis, who is apparently one
- 8:04Speaker 1: of the proponents.
- 8:05Speaker 2: Of this theory.
- 8:07Speaker 1: He cited this article in his research, which we should.
- 8:10Speaker 2: Say is from the Usenet group alt dot humor dot
- 8:14Speaker 2: best of Usenet.
- 8:15Speaker 1: Yes, it is a nineteen ninety five humor article on usenet. Great,
- 8:22Speaker 1: and it even like it has that passage which is
- 8:26Speaker 1: an obvious joke, and it like you can just you
- 8:30Speaker 1: can read from the tone. It's the kind of comedy
- 8:33Speaker 1: you saw on the Internet all the time in the
- 8:36Speaker 1: mid to late nineties. Fake onion, Yeah, because no one
- 8:40Speaker 1: had any reference point for what to do as comedy
- 8:45Speaker 1: on the Internet other than write fake fucking articles. And
- 8:49Speaker 1: they were everywhere and this was one of them. And
- 8:53Speaker 1: it is literally where this conspiracy theory kicks off. And
- 8:58Speaker 1: if you if you just that, then tell me why
- 9:02Speaker 1: Clyde lewis, prominent apologist for this theory, cited it in
- 9:08Speaker 1: his presentations about it.
- 9:12Speaker 2: I'm sorry, this is just it's insane.
- 9:15Speaker 1: And if you're writing a book about it in twenty fourteen,
- 9:18Speaker 1: where is this information?
- 9:20Speaker 2: You mentioned it even like put it in the dumb
- 9:24Speaker 2: framing that I just gave of, Like, yes, this is
- 9:27Speaker 2: a humor article, but it really opened some minds to
- 9:29Speaker 2: the possibilities or whatever.
- 9:31Speaker 1: And that is I kind of I think that's sort
- 9:37Speaker 1: of the approach the author is trying to claim he's
- 9:41Speaker 1: taking but no, you're not. If you're if like you're
- 9:45Speaker 1: being dishonest.
- 9:46Speaker 2: He can claim what he wants, but he is just
- 9:49Speaker 2: straight up like propagating this stuff.
- 9:53Speaker 1: And and he'll he'll say, and we should point out
- 9:56Speaker 1: the book is called the Kubrick Code, and it's by
- 10:00Speaker 1: a conspiracy theorist, pretty prominent conspiracy theorists, suppose so I
- 10:07Speaker 1: guess name Isaac Weishau. And he wrote a book, he
- 10:13Speaker 1: made a video, there's an audio book. I paid money
- 10:18Speaker 1: for this movie. I'm so sorry, and I this is
- 10:22Speaker 1: the kind of theory I want to believe, Like I
- 10:25Speaker 1: want to believe people are sending secret messages in movies,
- 10:30Speaker 1: and this it the theory covers so many movies. Like
- 10:33Speaker 1: I said, I went into this like, man, daddy needs content.
- 10:38Speaker 1: We can do an episode about every fucking movie.
- 10:41Speaker 2: And no, it's all the same.
- 10:42Speaker 1: Yeah, it's all the same.
- 10:44Speaker 2: And it's it's all bullshit, like it's just so on
- 10:47Speaker 2: its face bullshit. Yeah, it's immediate bullshit. He doesn't even
- 10:52Speaker 2: really like at least you know, I watched the movie.
- 10:54Speaker 2: You read the book, and in the movie, he does
- 10:58Speaker 2: not even like his narration does not sound what would
- 11:03Speaker 2: be the way that like omniscient at all?
- 11:05Speaker 1: He's not.
- 11:06Speaker 2: He never uses declarative language during this documentary, right, it's
- 11:10Speaker 2: always like, you know, this is just the thought and
- 11:13Speaker 2: not your I don't know, or like he literally at
- 11:16Speaker 2: one point says, does this have any occult significance? No,
- 11:20Speaker 2: I don't know, but I just thought it would be
- 11:23Speaker 2: interesting to talk about, Like yeah, and why yeah, then
- 11:26Speaker 2: what's the point of including it in your fucking movie, dude?
- 11:29Speaker 1: Right? And how is that significant enough to include? But
- 11:35Speaker 1: not the fact that people who have famously pushed this
- 11:39Speaker 1: theory in the past were citing a comedy article in
- 11:42Speaker 1: their work, like yeah, how do you leave that out?
- 11:46Speaker 1: And it And when he starts the book one of
- 11:50Speaker 1: the I guess techniques he uses is he'll say something like, now,
- 11:56Speaker 1: let's look at this from the perspective of a con
- 12:01Speaker 1: looking for Illuminati symbolism in Stanley Kubrick movies. It sounds
- 12:07Speaker 1: very scientific and and like he's trying to like kind
- 12:11Speaker 1: of distance himself from what he's doing, right, yeah, like
- 12:14Speaker 1: he's sort of mocking it, but he's not.
- 12:18Speaker 2: Well, it's absolutely this just total Weasley like cop out
- 12:24Speaker 2: that he does constantly throughout this all of this stuff
- 12:29Speaker 2: is he'll put something out there as someone said that
- 12:33Speaker 2: blah blah blah, And I guess if you think about
- 12:35Speaker 2: it this way, and like most of the time, it'll
- 12:38Speaker 2: be this outright illegal, slanderous shit about like there's at
- 12:45Speaker 2: what point where he talks about like you know, and
- 12:47Speaker 2: some people there's it's often said that Stanley Kubrick wanted
- 12:52Speaker 2: to work with Jack Nicholson because of his known involvement
- 12:55Speaker 2: with child sex rings and that sort of thing. And
- 12:58Speaker 2: you know, I don't know, uh, but that's definitely something
- 13:01Speaker 2: that people say. And I'm like, that is fucking straight
- 13:05Speaker 2: up illegal. That is that you if Jack Nicklson ever
- 13:11Speaker 2: somehow found this fucking thing, Yeah, like you would get
- 13:14Speaker 2: sued into oblivion for even it doesn't matter how many
- 13:19Speaker 2: black text on white block things saying fair use that
- 13:23Speaker 2: you put up or how much or how much you
- 13:25Speaker 2: couch it in. Well, some people say blah blah blah.
- 13:28Speaker 2: If you're paying like charging money for you talking about
- 13:32Speaker 2: Jack Nicholson being a sex pervert, like that's fucking slander.
- 13:36Speaker 2: This is awful. It really. It happens a bunch and
- 13:41Speaker 2: you know, obviously mostly happens about Stanley Kubrick. But like
- 13:46Speaker 2: it's just always fucking gobsmacking every time. I'm just like,
- 13:49Speaker 2: this is you, why are you saying like this is
- 13:52Speaker 2: so illegal? Holy shit?
- 13:55Speaker 1: Yeah, and it I don't know, I just I don't like.
- 13:59Speaker 1: I I feel like stuff like this is again going
- 14:03Speaker 1: back to the idea that what if the government Because
- 14:07Speaker 1: there's there's another mockumentary about this, and I want to say,
- 14:14Speaker 1: it's called Operation Avalanche something like that. Uh, let me
- 14:18Speaker 1: let me look it up and we will fucking pause.
- 14:21Speaker 2: Well, I'll just say that you looking it up as
- 14:24Speaker 2: you putting more effort into this podcast than this guy
- 14:28Speaker 2: put into his entire fucking book ind movie. So like,
- 14:33Speaker 2: good on.
- 14:33Speaker 1: You, Operation Avalanche. I haven't watched it, uh, but it is.
- 14:40Speaker 1: It's a mockumentary. Also because one of the things we're
- 14:43Speaker 1: going to talk about next, the other starting point for
- 14:46Speaker 1: this theory is a fucking mockumentary that was made with
- 14:49Speaker 1: the participation of Stanley Cooper's family.
- 14:53Speaker 2: Which is also so obviously a joke.
- 14:57Speaker 1: Very obvious. It looks like fucking best in show, it
- 15:00Speaker 1: really does.
- 15:01Speaker 2: And like the fact that Kubrick's estate was involved is
- 15:04Speaker 2: just like yeah, they're making fun of you assholes, like
- 15:06Speaker 2: this is a joke. They're saying, yeah, no, this is
- 15:09Speaker 2: all ridiculous.
- 15:10Speaker 1: And this Operation Avalanche movie, I haven't watched it, but the.
- 15:15Speaker 2: That guy's just an actor.
- 15:17Speaker 1: Yeah, that's the thing, the basic premise of it. It's
- 15:19Speaker 1: a movie, right, I think basically a comedy film. But
- 15:23Speaker 1: the basic premise is at one point, while Stanley Kubrick's
- 15:26Speaker 1: filming two thousand and one of Space Odyssey, NASA comes
- 15:30Speaker 1: to him and is like, we're not gonna be able
- 15:32Speaker 1: to land on the Moon. We're up there, but we're
- 15:35Speaker 1: not gonna be able to land. We need you to
- 15:38Speaker 1: film the footage that makes it look like we landed.
- 15:41Speaker 1: And that is something like, if you want to find
- 15:45Speaker 1: me some government documents about that, we can talk about it.
- 15:48Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean you might have to.
- 15:50Speaker 1: But what stuff like this does, even if what I'm
- 15:53Speaker 1: getting at is because I'm sure there are people out
- 15:56Speaker 1: there who are like, no, but there there's evidence you
- 15:59Speaker 1: haven't seen. Fine, sure I haven't seen it. But what
- 16:03Speaker 1: stuff like this book that came out in twenty fourteen
- 16:06Speaker 1: does is discredits any fucking element of that idea to
- 16:11Speaker 1: where like I bring up nine to eleven all the time,
- 16:15Speaker 1: where the government is going to be more than happy
- 16:18Speaker 1: to let you focus on George Bush did nine to eleven,
- 16:21Speaker 1: then the fact that Saudi Arabia maybe did nine to eleven. Maybe,
- 16:27Speaker 1: and you know, only because the majority of the hijackers
- 16:31Speaker 1: were I mean Saudi's and Saudi intelligence did have contact
- 16:35Speaker 1: with the hijackers at one point before nine to eleven.
- 16:38Speaker 1: But angel, that's all, nothing else pointing to their involvement.
- 16:43Speaker 1: They're gonna be more than happy to let all of
- 16:45Speaker 1: your fucking loose change documentaries run unfettered as long as
- 16:50Speaker 1: you don't ask about what's really in another example, have
- 16:53Speaker 1: you seen Wormwood?
- 16:55Speaker 2: No, not yet, We've talked about it in the past.
- 16:57Speaker 1: Yeah, and it's the same idea. It's the idea that
- 17:00Speaker 1: the government embraced, the idea of, yeah, we gave that
- 17:04Speaker 1: guy too much acid and he freaked out and jumped
- 17:07Speaker 1: out a window. Sorry. Yeah, when there's a lot of
- 17:10Speaker 1: evidence that points to they threw him out a fucking
- 17:14Speaker 1: window because he was going to reveal a lot more
- 17:17Speaker 1: than the fact that he'd been secretly dosed, yeah with LSD.
- 17:21Speaker 1: But in that you see a real life example of
- 17:24Speaker 1: the government going all right, Yeah, that's the story. You
- 17:27Speaker 1: want to think you jumped. Yeah, fine, we'll pay you money,
- 17:29Speaker 1: We'll let well they let him meet the fucking president. Yeah,
- 17:33Speaker 1: they let his family meet the president, and they were like, yeah, sorry,
- 17:37Speaker 1: we fuck us up. But it there's also a lot
- 17:40Speaker 1: like watch the documentary, they make a compelling case that
- 17:44Speaker 1: he didn't jump and he was fucking murdered because he
- 17:47Speaker 1: was going to be a problem and the CIA had
- 17:49Speaker 1: training manuals on that ship back then. Yeah, so who
- 17:52Speaker 1: knows CIA does shady shit on the daily. Yeah, So
- 17:56Speaker 1: what we could be seeing in twenty fourteen is just
- 17:59Speaker 1: the continuation of the government's effort to discredit this one
- 18:04Speaker 1: idea by saying Illuminati. Like, at this point, I'm deep
- 18:09Speaker 1: enough into this podcast, I wouldn't be surprised if the
- 18:11Speaker 1: Illuminati is literally a United States government intelligence operation. Like
- 18:17Speaker 1: the idea of the Illuminati is the government wanting to
- 18:23Speaker 1: put a fucking scary monster out there that is so
- 18:27Speaker 1: intimidating you think, well, it doesn't matter what happens at
- 18:30Speaker 1: the government level, because the Illuminati dog like you're never
- 18:34Speaker 1: going to get to them, and the government's like, shre
- 18:37Speaker 1: aren't man the powers that be am I right, unseen
- 18:42Speaker 1: hand baby.
- 18:43Speaker 2: Uh yeah, I don't know. I mean, as always, I
- 18:46Speaker 2: don't know about all that. But like I do think
- 18:49Speaker 2: that the moon landing thing, the idea of them coming
- 18:53Speaker 2: to him because they couldn't finish the job, it would
- 18:56Speaker 2: be I would have not have too much trouble believing
- 19:00Speaker 2: it if there was any evidence whatsoever to support it.
- 19:05Speaker 2: That is the That is the key problem with that
- 19:07Speaker 2: entire thing is it is pure fiction. It's just made
- 19:11Speaker 2: up as It's like, it's like fan fiction for historical figures.
- 19:15Speaker 2: It's like what if Stanley Kubrick directed the moon landing?
- 19:20Speaker 2: It's like a Marvel mashup.
- 19:22Speaker 1: And then what this does is if that evidence were
- 19:26Speaker 1: ever to be presented, this theory exists mostly in this
- 19:31Speaker 1: form now where people are going to see that evidence
- 19:34Speaker 1: and still be like, right, so what like so what
- 19:37Speaker 1: they asked him? Like they didn't we landed well?
- 19:40Speaker 2: And I think also this kind of comes down This
- 19:43Speaker 2: is a thing that I think of a lot about
- 19:45Speaker 2: the JFK conspiracy as well.
- 19:47Speaker 1: Uh oh, I have such strong feelings on it.
- 19:50Speaker 2: But go on where I think after this much time
- 19:54Speaker 2: has passed and the ramifications of these historical events have
- 19:59Speaker 2: or that he been shaken out or are in the
- 20:02Speaker 2: process of shaking out and that sort of thing. I
- 20:04Speaker 2: don't think it matters at all whether or not the
- 20:07Speaker 2: CIA murdered John F. Kennedy or whether the moon landing
- 20:12Speaker 2: was fake. It doesn't matter. We've been to space. We
- 20:14Speaker 2: know we've been to space now, like we have concrete proof.
- 20:17Speaker 2: We sent probes to Mars, We've we've had people living
- 20:20Speaker 2: up in the space station for years.
- 20:21Speaker 1: Yeah, like we've brought moon rocks.
- 20:23Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, like we have definitely gone to turn out
- 20:26Speaker 2: to be Oh, I am well aware about the law
- 20:30Speaker 2: tragedy of the loss Apollo eight team mission bank. You
- 20:34Speaker 2: never forget, but yeah, like it's at a certain point,
- 20:40Speaker 2: it's just like who gives a fuck? It doesn't matter.
- 20:43Speaker 2: It's the same with like who cares a bush did
- 20:44Speaker 2: nine to eleven? It doesn't matter, honestly, because we've already
- 20:50Speaker 2: fucked up the Middle East and all that shit is
- 20:53Speaker 2: real ship that we actually had to deal with. It
- 20:55Speaker 2: doesn't matter who actually did nine to eleven. It was
- 20:58Speaker 2: done and things were done in reaction to it, regardless
- 21:01Speaker 2: of what the actual cause was. Yeah, and I understand
- 21:04Speaker 2: it on like on some level, but like getting obsessive
- 21:08Speaker 2: about it is just stupid and like unhealthy as a point.
- 21:12Speaker 1: And like even with JFK, that's one where my favorite
- 21:18Speaker 1: theory about the JFK killing or the death of JFK.
- 21:22Speaker 1: There's a documentary called JFK The Smoking Gun and it's
- 21:26Speaker 1: made by There's this famous reenactment that people cite all
- 21:31Speaker 1: the time as it relates to Lee Harvey Oswald being
- 21:34Speaker 1: able to shoot, to being able to fire those three shots.
- 21:38Speaker 1: And people always cite that when CBS did this reenactment
- 21:42Speaker 1: in the late sixties, someone was able to do it. Yeah,
- 21:46Speaker 1: and they cite that as proof that Lee Harvey Oswald
- 21:49Speaker 1: would have been able to fire those three shots. The
- 21:51Speaker 1: part people leave out is that guy, the guy who
- 21:54Speaker 1: was able to do it, the one guy. They brought
- 21:57Speaker 1: in so many people to try this and one guy
- 22:01Speaker 1: was able to do it. He found it so difficult.
- 22:04Speaker 1: He was convinced Lee Harvey Oswald probably didn't do it alone.
- 22:09Speaker 1: And he spent the next twenty years of his life
- 22:13Speaker 1: just examining the ballistics evidence in the JFK assassination, and
- 22:19Speaker 1: the theory he came up with is that Lee Harvey
- 22:23Speaker 1: Oswald was there and fired two shots, and the shot
- 22:27Speaker 1: that killed JFK was fired accidentally by a Secret Service
- 22:33Speaker 1: agent in the motorcade behind him.
- 22:35Speaker 2: I think we've definitely talked about this, but yeah.
- 22:38Speaker 1: And that's sure like if that were to be revealed now,
- 22:43Speaker 1: Like so.
- 22:44Speaker 2: What, Yeah, Lee Harvey Oswelds still tried to kill the president, Like.
- 22:47Speaker 1: Yeah, everyone was right in that case.
- 22:50Speaker 2: And in fact, it could, on a like ontological level,
- 22:54Speaker 2: be argued that he did kill JFK because that crisis
- 22:59Speaker 2: will and age at all if he hadn't fired those shots.
- 23:02Speaker 1: And it also makes a lot of logical It's the
- 23:06Speaker 1: kind of government cover up I can live with it.
- 23:09Speaker 1: It's the kind that happened because why like if you
- 23:13Speaker 1: the the documentary ends basically talking about that secret Service
- 23:17Speaker 1: agent and how it like wrecked his life, and like
- 23:20Speaker 1: imagine being that that guy that accidentally fucking killed JFA
- 23:26Speaker 1: And it stands the reason that the government would be
- 23:29Speaker 1: like Lee Harvey alone.
- 23:31Speaker 2: And it doesn't really materially affect the outcome events. Yeah,
- 23:36Speaker 2: we still had the Like I can't imagine how having
- 23:42Speaker 2: that information come out, even at the time would have
- 23:45Speaker 2: significantly altered the course of history.
- 23:48Speaker 1: Right, it's a pr thing, Like, it's a morale thing.
- 23:53Speaker 2: That makes way more sense than it was the MOB,
- 23:56Speaker 2: or it was the CIA, or it was like.
- 23:59Speaker 1: Now, if you want to talk talk about Martin Luther
- 24:01Speaker 1: King Junior, there's all sorts of any Black Panther related death,
- 24:06Speaker 1: then we can fucking talk. I feel like, like how
- 24:10Speaker 1: Lee Harvey Oswald got there? Anyone's fucking guests with Malcolm Mix.
- 24:14Speaker 2: It does seem pretty likely that it was a Nation
- 24:16Speaker 2: of Islam that murdered him.
- 24:18Speaker 1: Oh yeah, like they really hated him at the end. Yeah,
- 24:22Speaker 1: that's true.
- 24:22Speaker 2: But like I also would not put it past the CIA. Yeah,
- 24:26Speaker 2: we the shit that we know that they've actually done.
- 24:29Speaker 2: Like I guess we're getting a little off track, Yeah,
- 24:31Speaker 2: we've we've kind of lost the Stanley Cooper could but
- 24:34Speaker 2: we can get back.
- 24:35Speaker 1: To it, of course. Like the again, this that is
- 24:39Speaker 1: my main point of contention with this is that all
- 24:42Speaker 1: of it comes from comedy. Yeah, fake articles, fake documentaries
- 24:47Speaker 1: are the genesis. As far as anyone documenting it can tell,
- 24:51Speaker 1: it's either assumption or these two articles are the genesis
- 24:56Speaker 1: of this theory.
- 24:57Speaker 2: And with as with most of the most outrageous conspiracy theories,
- 25:03Speaker 2: they all rely on this entering into the discussion with
- 25:09Speaker 2: these preordained outcomes in mind right, they are looking like
- 25:14Speaker 2: they're watching these movies looking for symbolism that could, possibly,
- 25:21Speaker 2: with the right reading, support this theory that they've already
- 25:26Speaker 2: decided has evidence within the film to support it, which
- 25:31Speaker 2: is not how you look for things. That is not
- 25:34Speaker 2: how you examine art. Also, it's the worst fucking way
- 25:37Speaker 2: to watch a movie. Oh yeah, you're completely missing out
- 25:41Speaker 2: on everything that makes these movies enjoyable to watch by
- 25:44Speaker 2: focusing on all this bullshit.
- 25:46Speaker 1: Yeah, and the like a lot of the symbols they
- 25:50Speaker 1: talk about are they're just things you see everywhere, Yeah,
- 25:55Speaker 1: like the sun.
- 25:56Speaker 2: Or their symbols and then or their symbols and specific
- 26:00Speaker 2: symbols to whatever movie they're talking about. But then they
- 26:04Speaker 2: make the extra leap of like, yeah, this represents, you know,
- 26:08Speaker 2: an abusive relationship and also how it relates to the illuminati,
- 26:13Speaker 2: instead of just being like, yeah, no, this is you know,
- 26:16Speaker 2: the Teddy Bear represents childhood and whatever, likeah, like, it
- 26:19Speaker 2: doesn't have to be fucking rocket. It's art. It's not like, yeah,
- 26:23Speaker 2: it's not a.
- 26:24Speaker 1: Textbook and it's with Kubrick, there is such an industry
- 26:29Speaker 1: built up around this idea he has.
- 26:31Speaker 2: There's this whole idol like idolized by a certain segment
- 26:36Speaker 2: of the population who idolizes him as this right brain thinker,
- 26:42Speaker 2: total logical fiend who analyzed everything and everything was on purpose,
- 26:48Speaker 2: when in reality, he's just a guy who really liked
- 26:51Speaker 2: art and like was really passionate about filmmaking and wanted
- 26:55Speaker 2: to make really good movies and was a perfectionist. Like
- 26:58Speaker 2: he's not He's.
- 27:00Speaker 1: Not alone in that among filmmakers.
- 27:02Speaker 2: No, absolutely not. And yeah, he like the things that
- 27:05Speaker 2: happen in his movies are extremely purposeful, but that doesn't
- 27:08Speaker 2: mean they have some higher meaning besides how they support
- 27:12Speaker 2: the art that they are a piece of right, which
- 27:15Speaker 2: he is very dedicated to. But he's not this super
- 27:20Speaker 2: logic oriented filmmaker. He's so many of his movies, despite
- 27:24Speaker 2: seeming cold and dispassionate, are really about emotion and human
- 27:30Speaker 2: react human relationships and reactions to things, which is one
- 27:34Speaker 2: of the things that makes him such an engaging filmmaker.
- 27:36Speaker 2: Why I love him so much is that there's there's
- 27:39Speaker 2: this vast depth to them, even beyond but like there's
- 27:43Speaker 2: not that much. There's not like this kind of depth.
- 27:46Speaker 2: That's not depth. This is just an extension of a
- 27:50Speaker 2: surface level reading of the film, right, taken off in
- 27:54Speaker 2: these logical, insane tangents that make any sense.
- 27:57Speaker 1: And like with The Shining, there's a whole there's a
- 28:00Speaker 1: fucking documentary that's longer than The Shining.
- 28:03Speaker 2: Yeah, this is longer than The Shining. Yeah, this is
- 28:06Speaker 2: longer than every Kubrick movie except for Ice White Hut.
- 28:10Speaker 2: I watched this entire two hour and forty minute movie
- 28:13Speaker 2: and it is the exact same length as Ice White Shut.
- 28:16Speaker 1: That's wow.
- 28:19Speaker 2: It's longer than two thousand and one.
- 28:20Speaker 1: Space on the Sea. And so my next problem with
- 28:24Speaker 1: this theory, on top of at least this book, which
- 28:27Speaker 1: seems to be the most recent iteration of this theory,
- 28:30Speaker 1: on top of not mentioning those sketchy origins of the theory, uh,
- 28:36Speaker 1: it also when he's making when he's explaining why Kubrick
- 28:41Speaker 1: would do this or like the evidence for why Kubrick,
- 28:45Speaker 1: Why these symbols you're seeing. I'm trying to think how
- 28:47Speaker 1: to put this, Why these symbols you see in the movies,
- 28:50Speaker 1: because they're there, Sure there are a symbol, Like it's
- 28:52Speaker 1: a movie. You can't that's the pointed a movie and
- 28:54Speaker 1: go that's there, and then I watch it and go, no,
- 28:56Speaker 1: it's not.
- 28:57Speaker 2: Honestly, the most accurate thing that this movie and book
- 29:02Speaker 2: say is that Stanley Kubrick is a filmmaker who used
- 29:06Speaker 2: symbolism in his film.
- 29:08Speaker 1: Right, and at cult symbolism sure, Like Also lat Zeppelin
- 29:11Speaker 1: was a band that employed cult symbolism. They didn't do
- 29:15Speaker 1: it because they fucking joined the Illuminous.
- 29:18Speaker 2: And it doesn't mean that every symbol in the fucking
- 29:21Speaker 2: thing is a cult symbol right. He's talking about, like,
- 29:26Speaker 2: you know, at a scene where people are at the
- 29:28Speaker 2: train on train tracks and there's two pillars, and he's like,
- 29:31Speaker 2: and he goes off on this whole tangent about how
- 29:33Speaker 2: there's these two pillars. I'm like, maybe it's just because
- 29:35Speaker 2: there are two fuck pillars, man.
- 29:36Speaker 1: Yeah, like Jesus fucking Christ pillars, dude, everywhere. So this
- 29:41Speaker 1: is an actual like his his things are, like, you know,
- 29:45Speaker 1: he played chess. Sure, Stanley Kubrick played chess. So it
- 29:48Speaker 1: stands to reason that he would spend most of his
- 29:51Speaker 1: life and professional career laying out the Illuminati conspiracy that
- 29:57Speaker 1: has been laid out in several books over the decades
- 30:01Speaker 1: that anyone interested, like who the fuck is thinking someone's
- 30:05Speaker 1: gonna watch a clockwork orange and go, holy shit, is
- 30:08Speaker 1: there an Illuminati?
- 30:09Speaker 2: Like wait, oh this this woman that he's raping. Does
- 30:13Speaker 2: her black and white checkered floor mean the duality of man?
- 30:16Speaker 1: Yeah? I was just like those people probably existed in
- 30:20Speaker 1: the seventies and they're probably fucking annoying.
- 30:23Speaker 2: Yeah, there've always been annoying.
- 30:25Speaker 1: This is a quote that I think kind of sums
- 30:28Speaker 1: up my frustration with the book in general, because if
- 30:34Speaker 1: Stanley Kubrick did this, if he dedicated his entire career
- 30:38Speaker 1: to exposing the Illuminati agenda, I want to know why.
- 30:43Speaker 2: Notice he didn't talk about Barry Lindon.
- 30:45Speaker 1: Yeah, he doesn't talk about Barry Lyndon, and I think
- 30:49Speaker 1: Bareley brushes.
- 30:50Speaker 2: He he mentions fullmetal jacket once, yeah, which I don't know.
- 30:54Speaker 2: I don't know if there's any political symbols.
- 30:56Speaker 1: I don't think so jacket. Yeah, he mentioned goals are
- 31:00Speaker 1: stars or moons?
- 31:01Speaker 2: All images? Is that one character? Where's a peace signed button?
- 31:05Speaker 1: Oh nice? Yeah?
- 31:06Speaker 2: Oh deep?
- 31:07Speaker 1: What's the symbolism of getting the shit beat out of
- 31:10Speaker 1: you with socks filled with soap? Yeah? Uh?
- 31:14Speaker 2: The brutality of man.
- 31:17Speaker 1: So this is an actual quote. It's kind of long,
- 31:21Speaker 1: but this is his summation of all of the evidence
- 31:25Speaker 1: that Kubrick engaged in this before he dedicates the other
- 31:29Speaker 1: one hundred or so pages to the symbols. In conclusion,
- 31:34Speaker 1: if we look at Kubrick's natural pension for intentional details,
- 31:39Speaker 1: long term slow place strategy parentheses, because he played chess
- 31:44Speaker 1: and being ahead of his time, we could see the
- 31:47Speaker 1: structural foundation of this overarching conspiracy theory that he was
- 31:51Speaker 1: trying to reveal as the multifaceted approach of global domination
- 31:56Speaker 1: of the illuminati. His final film, Eyes Wide Shut, it
- 32:00Speaker 1: was arguably the straw that broke the camel's back. Rumors
- 32:03Speaker 1: online claimed that Warner Brothers heavily edited his final version
- 32:07Speaker 1: before releasing it to the public, and theorists claimed that
- 32:10Speaker 1: he was revealing too much in the occult orgy scenes,
- 32:13Speaker 1: so they took him out for this act of defiance
- 32:16Speaker 1: that sounds like it was written for children who believe
- 32:19Speaker 1: conspiracy theories. And we had a guy on a while
- 32:26Speaker 1: back named John Potash who wrote a fucking whopper of
- 32:29Speaker 1: a book called Drugs as Weapons against Us, and his
- 32:34Speaker 1: overarching theory is that the CIA sells drugs and they
- 32:39Speaker 1: kind of influence music to help sell those drugs, and
- 32:43Speaker 1: when musicians start getting to leftist, they kill him. And
- 32:48Speaker 1: what I'm saying here is completely independent of that, because
- 32:52Speaker 1: he brought up a thing that has happened. It's not
- 32:55Speaker 1: just him saying that this happened. And what I'm referring
- 32:59Speaker 1: to is the attempts to make a movie about Russell
- 33:05Speaker 1: Poole's book Labyrinth. Russell Pool is a former LAPD detective
- 33:11Speaker 1: who wrote what is arguably the definitive book on that
- 33:14Speaker 1: conspiracy theory, and his theory is that the LAPD was
- 33:20Speaker 1: kinda involved, yeah, uh, kinda up to heavily involved. And
- 33:25Speaker 1: three different times people have tried to make that book
- 33:28Speaker 1: into a movie. There were even trailers for one of them.
- 33:31Speaker 1: It was gonna be a fucking Johnny Depp movie, and
- 33:33Speaker 1: every time those movies just never came out. So if
- 33:38Speaker 1: the fucking LAPD has that kind of influence on movies,
- 33:43Speaker 1: the illuminati could have stopped eyes wide, shut you fucking
- 33:47Speaker 1: clowns like someone if this was if that's what was happening,
- 33:53Speaker 1: and the yeah, the theory is that like their their
- 33:55Speaker 1: argument is Kubrick was killed for making eyes wide shut.
- 34:00Speaker 2: You would just kill him before. Yeah, they had to
- 34:03Speaker 2: off this, like seventy eight year old man. Yeah, he
- 34:07Speaker 2: was under what circumstances?
- 34:08Speaker 1: Would you let him spend his entire life exposing your
- 34:13Speaker 1: secrets and then wait until the final masterpiece of Illuminati expose.
- 34:19Speaker 2: They would have killed him after Doctor Strangelove, they would
- 34:23Speaker 2: have killed you wouldn't even been able to get to
- 34:25Speaker 2: all the illuminatis. Yeah, they would have. They probably would have.
- 34:29Speaker 1: Killed him after asking him to fake the moonlight, Yeah,
- 34:33Speaker 1: because who needs that witness around?
- 34:35Speaker 2: Honestly, that makes sense, And it's not.
- 34:37Speaker 1: Like killing a musician in the late sixties would have
- 34:40Speaker 1: been hard. You could have sent the Manson family. You
- 34:42Speaker 1: could have.
- 34:43Speaker 2: Killed him with it in England, it would have been
- 34:45Speaker 2: tough to send the Mansons in What If? The with
- 34:50Speaker 2: a You And why didn't Why didn't Quentin Tarantino make
- 34:54Speaker 2: that movie about the Mansons on their English trip.
- 35:00Speaker 1: Manson's in Vegas. It's for the whole thing, like National Lampoons,
- 35:04Speaker 1: Charles Manson, Oh my good, Charles Manson's family Vacation.
- 35:10Speaker 2: Yeah, there's just so many fun They just make so
- 35:13Speaker 2: many leaps like that. In this whole thing. There's a
- 35:16Speaker 2: moment where he talks about David Prust, who famously was
- 35:21Speaker 2: the you know, in suit actor for Darth Vader. Ye,
- 35:25Speaker 2: he appears in a clockwork orange and he's like, is
- 35:30Speaker 2: this a does this tie into the Illuminati themes in
- 35:36Speaker 2: Star Wars? And I'm like, no, they both shut at
- 35:38Speaker 2: Pinewood Studios in England. They both they just use the
- 35:42Speaker 2: same actors. Yeah, this is how film works.
- 35:45Speaker 1: Man.
- 35:46Speaker 2: Sorry, I hate to break it to you, but actors
- 35:48Speaker 2: are in different movies. I know, I know, shocking. Maybe
- 35:52Speaker 2: that's a conspiracy, but it's.
- 35:55Speaker 1: My other problem with this theory. And we're pages into
- 35:59Speaker 1: the book, seven to ten page.
- 36:02Speaker 2: Literally, it is immediate that everything about this falls apart. Yeah.
- 36:07Speaker 1: I hate when something opens with a super definitive statement
- 36:11Speaker 1: that you can just immediately look at and go nope, no, nope,
- 36:14Speaker 1: absolutely not not what happened. And one of the things
- 36:19Speaker 1: that bothers me about this is the book goes from okay,
- 36:22Speaker 1: so the Illuminati, which there's also like a preface in
- 36:26Speaker 1: the book that says, Illuminati just means any secret organization
- 36:30Speaker 1: we're working to influence, not necessarily the Bavarian Illuminati, which
- 36:35Speaker 1: allegedly ended in eighteen forty and it's okay, And so
- 36:42Speaker 1: now we're back to well, it could have just been NASA.
- 36:45Speaker 1: It could have been NASA. Sure, it could have been
- 36:46Speaker 1: but but it goes from that to okay. So after
- 36:52Speaker 1: the Illuminati did this, he made it his life's work
- 36:56Speaker 1: to not only alter a film that had presumed probably
- 37:00Speaker 1: been written and was in the works for some time.
- 37:03Speaker 2: Yeah, well that's easy. Before that, Yeah, that's nothing. They
- 37:06Speaker 2: had in a bunch of scenes in dialogue and and
- 37:09Speaker 2: and images. Yeah, just make a different in nineteen sixty eight,
- 37:12Speaker 2: that's nothing. You just all that digitally replace it.
- 37:15Speaker 1: We were getting to the moon by then, I know,
- 37:18Speaker 1: when we make a movie about it, were we exactly?
- 37:20Speaker 2: And that's these are the questions. We're just asking questions here, folks.
- 37:24Speaker 1: And what they don't mention is where did Stanley Kubrick
- 37:28Speaker 1: get all of this knowledge of Illuminati symbolism from being
- 37:34Speaker 1: offered money to fake the moon landing? Were they did?
- 37:38Speaker 1: They come to him and were like, look, a national emergency,
- 37:42Speaker 1: we might not be able to land, need you to
- 37:44Speaker 1: film some fake footage also Illuminati. Yeah, here's a pair
- 37:48Speaker 1: of let's read it. It's eighteen hundred.
- 37:50Speaker 2: Pages and here's a copy of Aleister Crowley's Moonschild.
- 37:54Speaker 1: Yeah, and if you could read up on all of
- 37:56Speaker 1: this and just sprinkle it into every film you make,
- 37:58Speaker 1: except the ones you don't sprinkle it into, and you.
- 38:01Speaker 2: Have to include it in this one that you are
- 38:04Speaker 2: currently in post production on, which is an insanely intense
- 38:09Speaker 2: and laborious process here in nineteen sixty eight.
- 38:12Speaker 1: But also this is all very hush hush. Yeah, but
- 38:14Speaker 1: don't they don't say anything. If you do, we will
- 38:18Speaker 1: kill you avention.
- 38:19Speaker 2: Yeah, and like h thirty years Yeah, maybe.
- 38:24Speaker 1: Jesus Christ, what is happening?
- 38:28Speaker 2: Uh? Just it's just pure, it's so and yeah, and
- 38:33Speaker 2: it just proceeds to lay out and it just starts,
- 38:37Speaker 2: it just keeps going. It starts on that, and then
- 38:40Speaker 2: every piece of evidence is him starting at the base
- 38:43Speaker 2: of does this have to do with the Illuminati? And
- 38:45Speaker 2: if so, how, And the answer to the first question
- 38:49Speaker 2: is always yes, right, And the answer to the second
- 38:52Speaker 2: question is always some fucking basic teenage level film analysis
- 38:58Speaker 2: that just scratch the surface and then just keep snowballing.
- 39:02Speaker 1: Yeah, and they they At one point in the book
- 39:06Speaker 1: he mentioned something about you see similar sacrifice in other
- 39:11Speaker 1: civilizations and then mentions the British government killing Princess Diana.
- 39:16Speaker 2: Of course, yeah, no, this is like that's your.
- 39:18Speaker 1: Go to for Oh, it's the thing civilizations.
- 39:21Speaker 2: This is a documented fact. Like everything else that.
- 39:25Speaker 1: We're talking about, It is in the historical record that
- 39:30Speaker 1: the British government definitely killed like come.
- 39:32Speaker 2: On, yeah, and he loves to go into his uh,
- 39:36Speaker 2: talks about Luciferian symbolism.
- 39:40Speaker 1: That's one of the Yeah, let's talk about some of
- 39:43Speaker 1: the symbolism in two thousand and one of Space Odyssey.
- 39:48Speaker 1: Because the the idea he's pushing here is that Kubrick
- 39:52Speaker 1: is warning us about an Illuminati, a transhuman Illuminati agenda,
- 39:59Speaker 1: trans human meaning humans and machines merge become godlike.
- 40:05Speaker 2: And as he's describing this in the movie, he does
- 40:07Speaker 2: play a clip from the Johnny Depp movie Transference.
- 40:11Speaker 1: Of course, that's solid science fiction texts the documentary film Transference,
- 40:18Speaker 1: and it he also brings up Ancient Aliens.
- 40:21Speaker 2: Oh yeah, he plays a whole clip from an Ancient
- 40:23Speaker 2: Aliens episode.
- 40:24Speaker 1: Because it yeah, it ties into like the New World,
- 40:27Speaker 1: like this is a we've been talking about the New
- 40:30Speaker 1: World Order for a couple of weeks now. And this
- 40:34Speaker 1: ties into also that this Kubrick theory is pushing the
- 40:43Speaker 1: idea that Kubrick like, that's what Kubrick's warning us about,
- 40:47Speaker 1: is this Illuminati New World Order agenda that's gonna like, yeah,
- 40:53Speaker 1: make us all one thing.
- 40:54Speaker 2: And there are multiple problems with this just on its face.
- 40:59Speaker 2: One that two thousand and one Space Odyssey is based
- 41:02Speaker 2: on the novel by Arthur C. Clark and is not
- 41:06Speaker 2: a work of fiction invented by Stanley Kubrick, and all yes,
- 41:13Speaker 2: and so much and much like clock or Orange, just
- 41:16Speaker 2: like and so much of the symbolism that he talks
- 41:20Speaker 2: about is all from So there's this there's all of
- 41:25Speaker 2: this stuff having to do with Saturn and how Saturn
- 41:28Speaker 2: is this Illuminati symbol. But if you remember from the
- 41:33Speaker 2: film two thousand and one Space Odyssey, the events take
- 41:36Speaker 2: place outside of Jupiter because Stanley Kuprick was like, I
- 41:40Speaker 2: can't really do Saturn, they can't figure out the rings,
- 41:43Speaker 2: So we're doing Jupiter, which sounds like the work of
- 41:47Speaker 2: a guy who is really in depth trying to get
- 41:50Speaker 2: across a specific thematic message with that imagery.
- 41:56Speaker 1: But and the book they're like, oh, we couldn't.
- 41:59Speaker 2: Well, but they go like, so, there's so much that
- 42:02Speaker 2: he talks about with this Saturn imagery, none of which
- 42:04Speaker 2: is in the film two thousand and one Space Odysseee
- 42:06Speaker 2: by Stanley Kubrick, which all comes from the book. But
- 42:09Speaker 2: if the film is what he's saying contains all these
- 42:11Speaker 2: Illuminati messages, this primary symbol that he won't stop talking
- 42:17Speaker 2: about was changed by Kubrick. It's not in the movie
- 42:21Speaker 2: because of Kubrick's decision.
- 42:23Speaker 1: Yeah, there's another example.
- 42:25Speaker 2: That completely that's just like, well, then where's the where's
- 42:28Speaker 2: the proof for any of this? Then? Like, what if
- 42:32Speaker 2: the only symbol that you've got here is something that
- 42:35Speaker 2: was changed by Kubrick in the actual film, then how
- 42:38Speaker 2: is this Kubrick's code not Arthur C. Clark's code.
- 42:40Speaker 1: They they bring up a similar thing with how Yeah,
- 42:43Speaker 1: And they mentioned that how was supposed to be called
- 42:46Speaker 1: Athena and that Athena is tied to owls and you
- 42:50Speaker 1: see owls at Bohemian Grove Baby, and it's like, yeah,
- 42:54Speaker 1: but he changed it to how Yeah, where's how at
- 42:57Speaker 1: Bohemian Growth?
- 42:58Speaker 2: And then they were like and you know, and some
- 42:59Speaker 2: people say that it's a reference to IBM because it's
- 43:04Speaker 2: each each other is one is one removed. But Arthur C.
- 43:09Speaker 2: Clark said that there was no that that doesn't mean anything. Uh,
- 43:12Speaker 2: but you know, and then that's how it always is
- 43:15Speaker 2: whenever whenever. Yeah, they contradict one of these elements of
- 43:19Speaker 2: the theory. They always go but you know who knows,
- 43:22Speaker 2: And like.
- 43:23Speaker 1: If you're trying to be secret about it, the people
- 43:26Speaker 1: you're trying to out would know. Yeah, Like they're the one.
- 43:30Speaker 1: Like if anyone the Illuminati, they's.
- 43:33Speaker 2: Got Saturn all over it.
- 43:35Speaker 1: That's our thing, and they're the one. Like according to
- 43:39Speaker 1: this theory, they kind of see everything, they know everything,
- 43:43Speaker 1: they're involved in everything. They would just they would fucking
- 43:46Speaker 1: stab Stanley Cooprick in the shower at the gym in
- 43:49Speaker 1: the morning.
- 43:50Speaker 2: And that is really one of the fatal flaws of
- 43:52Speaker 2: the entire Illuminati thing, which is they are at once
- 43:57Speaker 2: this all seeing, all powerful organization of elites and also
- 44:02Speaker 2: are so inept that they can't shut down any of
- 44:05Speaker 2: these theories that are explaining the truth about them.
- 44:07Speaker 1: And couldn't catch the elusive Stanley Cooper was late seventies.
- 44:11Speaker 2: He definitely went all over the place outside of his
- 44:14Speaker 2: giant English mansion. He definitely was in the rest.
- 44:17Speaker 1: All the secret government images of him parkouring away from
- 44:21Speaker 1: secret agents in the streets of London.
- 44:23Speaker 2: I mean, I would fucking watch that series. Fuck yeah,
- 44:26Speaker 2: Young Stanley Kubrick is like a secret agel.
- 44:29Speaker 1: That would be so good because if this is all true, Like,
- 44:32Speaker 1: let's write that series Stanley Kubrick hiding from the illuminat.
- 44:36Speaker 2: He's got a great secret agent face, oh with the
- 44:39Speaker 2: eyebrows and the beard, and he's like very intense guy.
- 44:42Speaker 1: He could blend into a lot of culture.
- 44:44Speaker 2: It'd be great. I love Yeah, I love Stanley Kubrick.
- 44:47Speaker 2: He's that's my main. Like the whole thing about watching
- 44:50Speaker 2: this movie is a very strange experience because I want
- 44:52Speaker 2: to say I have some major beefs with just technical
- 44:55Speaker 2: aspects of this documentary, where I would say a good
- 45:00Speaker 2: eight ninety percent of this movie is clips of media
- 45:06Speaker 2: from Stanley Kubrick movies to ancient Heliens to all these
- 45:09Speaker 2: other things, and every single clip is in a different
- 45:15Speaker 2: aspect ratio, a different resolution, a different audio quality. Like
- 45:21Speaker 2: there are moments where he'll be doing his narration and
- 45:24Speaker 2: then he'll cut, like he'll tell you what you're about
- 45:26Speaker 2: to watch in a clip, and then he'll cut to
- 45:28Speaker 2: the clip and the audio in the clip is so
- 45:31Speaker 2: low that you would have to completely crank your volume
- 45:34Speaker 2: all the way up in order to hear it.
- 45:35Speaker 1: And then you know you're gonna get and then you get.
- 45:38Speaker 2: Blasted by the narration again because it doesn't change. It
- 45:42Speaker 2: is the most sloppily made thing. And then the narration
- 45:45Speaker 2: itself just sounds like he sat in front of his
- 45:48Speaker 2: computer for three hours and just recorded this thing straight
- 45:51Speaker 2: through and did not edit it at all. There's a
- 45:55Speaker 2: moment where the narration makes a factual error and instead
- 46:00Speaker 2: of editing that out like you would do for a
- 46:03Speaker 2: documentary that you are selling for money.
- 46:05Speaker 1: Oh is he Stanley Cooper, he's supposed to do and
- 46:08Speaker 1: he's not a perfectionist. So instead instead of removing the
- 46:12Speaker 1: factual error from the narration, he puts up a text
- 46:17Speaker 1: correction on the screen over the picture that is accompanying
- 46:20Speaker 1: the narration that includes the words my bad. Wow.
- 46:29Speaker 2: There are so many There's.
- 46:30Speaker 1: Another moment where he's talking about I wonder if that
- 46:32Speaker 1: happens in the audio book.
- 46:34Speaker 2: I would love to know.
- 46:36Speaker 1: Uh.
- 46:36Speaker 2: There's moments where that's why I was wondering about the
- 46:39Speaker 2: book is like, is there does he like cross out
- 46:42Speaker 2: sections and say no, no, no, wait, my bad, my bad.
- 46:45Speaker 2: There's a moment where he's talking about a line of
- 46:48Speaker 2: dialogue in a clockwork orange that Alex is saying, and
- 46:52Speaker 2: he says, uh, he says this to Pete or Georgie.
- 46:57Speaker 2: I don't know, I can't remember, And I'm like, edit it,
- 47:00Speaker 2: look it up and edit it. Yeah, and and go
- 47:02Speaker 2: back in and and add in what who he's saying
- 47:04Speaker 2: it to. You are the master of this domain. You
- 47:08Speaker 2: can you can alter the narrative how you see fit.
- 47:12Speaker 1: You can documentaries work.
- 47:14Speaker 2: Yeah, Like you can just go in and edit out
- 47:17Speaker 2: where you fucked up and edit in the right thing.
- 47:20Speaker 2: You don't have to do this all in one take.
- 47:22Speaker 2: It's really it's an astounding thing to watch. It's it's
- 47:24Speaker 2: one of the worst things I've ever watched that isn't
- 47:27Speaker 2: just hate speech.
- 47:28Speaker 1: And I do kind of wonder, especially going back to
- 47:32Speaker 1: the part about leaving out that these other people who
- 47:38Speaker 1: have pushed this theory were citing a comedy article. What
- 47:42Speaker 1: was their theory and are they credited? Are they the
- 47:47Speaker 1: ones who found these symbols?
- 47:49Speaker 2: Yeah?
- 47:50Speaker 1: Like it's there is there also some ancient Internet article
- 47:56Speaker 1: where fucking Clyde Lewis laid all this out, and this
- 47:59Speaker 1: guy's just like, well.
- 48:00Speaker 2: That's the whole, because that's this guy puts out so
- 48:02Speaker 2: much content it's insane. I went to his website. It's
- 48:06Speaker 2: is and like a man like this guy should be
- 48:09Speaker 2: on a watch list.
- 48:10Speaker 1: Like what people say, we put out a lot of content,
- 48:13Speaker 1: and for a podcast network, we really don't. Yeah, like
- 48:17Speaker 1: we put out like ten episodes a week. There's like
- 48:19Speaker 1: fucking All Things Comedy has like fifty some shows right
- 48:22Speaker 1: on its network. Like we're relatively small. This dude is
- 48:25Speaker 1: literally one fucking person. Yeah, and he is cranking out
- 48:29Speaker 1: the texts and in this case this feels like in
- 48:34Speaker 1: podcasts also yeah, and I'm just saying it feels like
- 48:39Speaker 1: this is probably detective work the Internet did at some
- 48:44Speaker 1: point all round.
- 48:45Speaker 2: Absolutely, that's the whole. All conspiracy media is just that
- 48:50Speaker 2: is just regurgitating. Like that's what conspiracy theorists as a brand,
- 48:56Speaker 2: like thrive On is just like this guy said this,
- 48:58Speaker 2: and or someone said. It's never a specific prison. It's
- 49:01Speaker 2: always some people say, or someone said or this and this. Yeah,
- 49:06Speaker 2: that's what Like, I think that's what people expect from
- 49:09Speaker 2: conspiracy media, is no first person evidence seeking. It's always secondhand. Yes,
- 49:17Speaker 2: And so some of the other symbols. One of the symbols.
- 49:21Speaker 1: They talk about is the moon. Yeah, space movie. Man,
- 49:25Speaker 1: it's gonna be the moon, is't it. You're gonna want
- 49:27Speaker 1: a little moon in your space movie?
- 49:29Speaker 2: Do you what if that's all? What if every if you're.
- 49:33Speaker 1: Trying to alert the world to an Illuminati agenda?
- 49:37Speaker 2: Yeah, what if every movie that includes the moon in
- 49:41Speaker 2: it is about the Illuminati?
- 49:44Speaker 1: Well, the Illuminati did figure out that, Like they decided
- 49:48Speaker 1: how far the Moon is from the Earth and how
- 49:53Speaker 1: far the Sun is from the Earth, right right, And
- 49:56Speaker 1: that's why all of their symbols and all their numerology
- 50:01Speaker 1: is related to those distances, okay, and not the other
- 50:04Speaker 1: way around them. They definitely didn't scientifically figure that out
- 50:09Speaker 1: a long, long, long time before the Illuminatis found it
- 50:12Speaker 1: in like seventeen ninety seven. You've answered my question, like
- 50:16Speaker 1: the fucking nineteen ninety five of Old Times. It's not
- 50:19Speaker 1: that long ago. All the shit they based their symbols on.
- 50:23Speaker 1: People have been basing their symbols on in civilizations and
- 50:28Speaker 1: groups for eternity.
- 50:31Speaker 2: Yeah, humans love symbols.
- 50:33Speaker 1: You're gonna see an all seeing eye or two in
- 50:36Speaker 1: your travels throughout the world.
- 50:38Speaker 2: I did love.
- 50:38Speaker 1: One of my favorite things that he talks about is
- 50:42Speaker 1: how on the clockwork orange poster, it's like the he's
- 50:45Speaker 1: inside the triangle and then there's the other triangle and
- 50:49Speaker 1: there's the the iye that's on his sleeve rests at
- 50:52Speaker 1: the pinnacle of the triangle.
- 50:54Speaker 2: Oh sure, except it doesn't. It rests to the side
- 50:59Speaker 2: of the pinnacle of the triangle, which, as far as
- 51:02Speaker 2: I am aware, is not an illuminatus panicle.
- 51:05Speaker 1: I say pinnacle.
- 51:07Speaker 2: It's just this again, it's just so sloppy logic of
- 51:10Speaker 2: just like well, I mean, but look, it's close. It's
- 51:13Speaker 2: pretty close there. It is next to the top of
- 51:17Speaker 2: a triangle, which I mean, you can't get much clearer
- 51:20Speaker 2: than that, and it like and I.
- 51:23Speaker 1: Get it, Like I've I have the my my ace
- 51:26Speaker 1: of Basse theory. Sure as Base was a Nazi band,
- 51:30Speaker 1: and I feel like some of the evidence there is
- 51:33Speaker 1: pretty fucking concrete and then there's some where like I
- 51:37Speaker 1: could make the argument, but do I want to do?
- 51:39Speaker 1: I want to be like, look, a blue flower there's
- 51:42Speaker 1: this fucking fascist group in the Netherlands that uses blue flowers,
- 51:46Speaker 1: and it's like, all right, yeah, you're trying to pad
- 51:48Speaker 1: out your book now or something. I mean yeah, but
- 51:50Speaker 1: it's like that, like these are all leaps and they're
- 51:54Speaker 1: all like, all of these symbols have been used in
- 51:57Speaker 1: so many other situations.
- 52:00Speaker 2: And have so many other meanings that relate to the
- 52:04Speaker 2: story being told more than the Illuminati relates to None
- 52:10Speaker 2: of these movies, and it should is important to be
- 52:12Speaker 2: said in case people maybe aren't aware of Kubrick's filmography.
- 52:18Speaker 2: None of these movies, with the exception of one, has
- 52:21Speaker 2: anything to do with the Illuminati at all period. On
- 52:26Speaker 2: a textual level, they are about a spaceman and a
- 52:30Speaker 2: bad boy and a really bad man who beats his family. Yeah,
- 52:36Speaker 2: and that's it. That's what those are about. And Eyes
- 52:40Speaker 2: White Shut is about mostly about a marriage and mostly
- 52:43Speaker 2: about this terrible relationship that falls apart. But it does
- 52:48Speaker 2: definitely deal with secret societies of elites who meet and
- 52:52Speaker 2: do deprave things in secret, which sure that is Illuminati esque.
- 52:57Speaker 2: I will give you that. I think that's ended. But
- 53:01Speaker 2: it's amazing how much more time he spends on the
- 53:04Speaker 2: things that don't have anything to do with and we're
- 53:07Speaker 2: you know, all of these symbols have other meanings within
- 53:09Speaker 2: the text.
- 53:10Speaker 1: Yeah, we've been doing episode recaps of Ancient Aliens. We're
- 53:20Speaker 1: still I think I still want to have you do one.
- 53:23Speaker 2: I'm down.
- 53:24Speaker 1: I'm kind of dedicated to getting through all fourteen seasons.
- 53:30Speaker 1: But also it's the same sort of thing where as
- 53:33Speaker 1: soon as I started looking into it, there was one
- 53:37Speaker 1: thing where I was like, ah fuck. And with Ancient Aliens,
- 53:40Speaker 1: it was this like creeping realization that this is kind
- 53:44Speaker 1: of some white supremacistion.
- 53:45Speaker 2: Absolutely it's what it's doing.
- 53:48Speaker 1: Like in the case of Ancient Aliens itself, I feel
- 53:52Speaker 1: like they're trying to put a conspiracy theory stink on
- 53:57Speaker 1: the Eastern version of of these civilization's histories and cultures,
- 54:04Speaker 1: because a lot of what Ancient Aliens does is they
- 54:08Speaker 1: present the a version of history that doesn't necessarily correspond
- 54:13Speaker 1: with Western historians. But like we know how history has worked,
- 54:18Speaker 1: Like our textbooks we read in school omitted a lot
- 54:21Speaker 1: of black history and why by accident, Like was that
- 54:27Speaker 1: just oh sorry oversight for God? God? A lot of
- 54:31Speaker 1: black people did things, and like we know the people
- 54:36Speaker 1: in charge of teaching us history have had an active
- 54:41Speaker 1: role in kind of not being genuine about that history. Absolutely,
- 54:46Speaker 1: And what something like Ancient Aliens does is it like,
- 54:49Speaker 1: if you start looking into that history, you're gonna hit
- 54:51Speaker 1: this ancient alien theory where it's like, all right, well,
- 54:55Speaker 1: you're just trying to discredit another civilization. But also when
- 54:59Speaker 1: I had that thought on that first episode, I was like,
- 55:02Speaker 1: I'm gonna look into that a little bit more. And
- 55:04Speaker 1: that night I google Ancient Aliens, white supremacy, and the
- 55:08Speaker 1: first fucking thing that comes up is a very little
- 55:13Speaker 1: mentioned aspect of ancient alien theory, which is the white
- 55:17Speaker 1: gods theory, which is that these extraterrestrial visitors weren't just
- 55:23Speaker 1: extraterrestrial visitors. They were noble, omniscient white people who came
- 55:29Speaker 1: down and gave every ancient civilization the tools they needed
- 55:34Speaker 1: to build and succeed. And it's like, fuck you, yeah, absolutely,
- 55:39Speaker 1: I know what you're trying to do. Yeah, Like that
- 55:42Speaker 1: is like you look at the financial disclosures on that study,
- 55:47Speaker 1: it's gonna say this doctor is funded by white supremacy.
- 55:50Speaker 2: Yeah, I would say that it's essentially racist at its core. Uh,
- 55:56Speaker 2: And it is also based on these same leaps in
- 55:59Speaker 2: logic that apply fictional beliefs to things that sound on
- 56:07Speaker 2: the surface logical, which when you think about it for
- 56:11Speaker 2: one second, Like, like I said, they did play an
- 56:12Speaker 2: the clip of Ancient Aliens in this movie, sure towards
- 56:15Speaker 2: the very beginning, which is my first prolonged exposure to
- 56:18Speaker 2: the Ancient Aliens TV show, And it was exactly like
- 56:23Speaker 2: I thought it would be.
- 56:24Speaker 1: I didn't expect it, Like I did a podcast about
- 56:27Speaker 1: Nirvana and I went in feeling one way about Kurt
- 56:30Speaker 1: Cobain and came out feeling a very different way, Like
- 56:32Speaker 1: I still love the music, but Kirt Cobain was a
- 56:35Speaker 1: fucking sketchy character, sure in a lot of ways, and
- 56:38Speaker 1: I didn't expect Ancient Aliens to be that. Like the
- 56:42Speaker 1: first time I watched Ancient Aliens, that part didn't really
- 56:44Speaker 1: register with me. So I was just like, ooh, yeah, interesting.
- 56:48Speaker 1: And now it's like twenty nineteen and fucking watching it now,
- 56:52Speaker 1: I'm like, I get what you're doing. Sure, I get
- 56:55Speaker 1: what you're fucking doing, and I don't like it.
- 56:57Speaker 2: And I just mean on like a technical level, like
- 56:59Speaker 2: it I watch a bunch of like Sci Fi Channel
- 57:01Speaker 2: and stuff like basic cable stuff and the nonfiction things
- 57:06Speaker 2: they all have. All the nonfiction basic cable stuff all
- 57:09Speaker 2: has this kind of same vibe to it, especially from
- 57:12Speaker 2: like the mid two thousands, and it was very much
- 57:14Speaker 2: that for this ancient aliens and they were making like
- 57:18Speaker 2: the clip that they included was talking about could humankind
- 57:22Speaker 2: be have evolved from aliens? And will we be are
- 57:26Speaker 2: we evolving to look like the gray aliens? And I'm like, well,
- 57:31Speaker 2: we don't know what the aliens look like, so probably
- 57:38Speaker 2: it's kind of tough to make that call. Man, we
- 57:41Speaker 2: don't We have no clue what aliens look like. And
- 57:45Speaker 2: even if they are gray aliens like our description, we
- 57:47Speaker 2: don't know what that means, like what that in, Like,
- 57:50Speaker 2: we don't know how accurate sketches are even if they
- 57:53Speaker 2: did see an alien.
- 57:54Speaker 1: And do you know how fucking long that would take anyway?
- 57:57Speaker 1: So long do you have a shit?
- 57:58Speaker 2: Yeah? Well? And also, man, we also really look like apes.
- 58:02Speaker 2: Yeah I wonder why. Yeah, it's crazy how we just
- 58:07Speaker 2: look like monkeys.
- 58:08Speaker 1: Yeah. I feel like if I had longer arms, I
- 58:11Speaker 1: could walk a completely different way.
- 58:13Speaker 2: Oh absolutely, And like you know, it just seems like
- 58:17Speaker 2: maybe that's a little bit of an easier leap to
- 58:19Speaker 2: make that. Then this hypothetical species we are related to
- 58:26Speaker 2: looks like us and we are evolving to look like them.
- 58:29Speaker 1: Yeah, it's this is just another theory that I don't
- 58:34Speaker 1: I don't fucking trust the motives here. Like it it.
- 58:37Speaker 1: I don't like associating all of these symbols that are
- 58:42Speaker 1: so ubiquitous, like like the all seeing eye, the sun,
- 58:47Speaker 1: the moon.
- 58:48Speaker 2: Yeah, the moon, the sun and the moon. Oh, those
- 58:50Speaker 2: Illuminati scenes.
- 58:51Speaker 1: Yeah, and you see they don't have any other meaning
- 58:53Speaker 1: in this book is like, well, I mean this for
- 58:55Speaker 1: people to look into these things further. It's like you
- 58:59Speaker 1: look into it for yeah, and point out that, hey,
- 59:02Speaker 1: you know who else uses the moon in their symbology? Everybody?
- 59:07Speaker 1: Literally everyone, like even the United States, I'm sure has
- 59:10Speaker 1: military patches with the fucking moon.
- 59:12Speaker 2: Sure we landed on the moon. Yeah, I mean supposedly,
- 59:17Speaker 2: just asking questions. I'm trying to think we're so. He
- 59:21Speaker 2: also part one of this movie was all it was
- 59:25Speaker 2: titled two thousand and one A Space out the Sea,
- 59:27Speaker 2: and he talked about two thousand and one A Cockergrange Eyes,
- 59:31Speaker 2: White Shut in the Shining. Then part two was just
- 59:34Speaker 2: called The Shining, and then part three was called Eyes
- 59:37Speaker 2: Wide Shut. Why even divide it? I honestly don't know.
- 59:40Speaker 2: It's yeah pointless. Also, the the parts got progressively shorter.
- 59:45Speaker 1: As the movie went on, which is ironic because The
- 59:48Speaker 1: Shining has its own, like, yeah, two to three hour
- 59:52Speaker 1: documentary about all the different theories.
- 59:55Speaker 2: And all the stuff from The Shining is just like,
- 59:57Speaker 2: even by the standards of this theory, total garbage. Yeah,
- 1:00:02Speaker 2: because it's.
- 1:00:03Speaker 1: Stuff like, oh, Danny Torrence had the fucking Apollo eleven
- 1:00:07Speaker 1: T shirt.
- 1:00:07Speaker 2: It's like, so what, Yeah, he's a kid in the seventies.
- 1:00:10Speaker 1: Yeah, fucking like, what does that happened?
- 1:00:12Speaker 2: There's this whole like, there's at least ten minutes that
- 1:00:15Speaker 2: he spends on food that you see in the background
- 1:00:19Speaker 2: of one shot when they're in the hotel pantry. And
- 1:00:24Speaker 2: I just couldn't believe that this hotel pantry would have
- 1:00:27Speaker 2: all this food in it.
- 1:00:28Speaker 1: That was just shocking.
- 1:00:29Speaker 2: All this food from the seventies that has questionable labels,
- 1:00:33Speaker 2: really surprised. Who could have thought that this movie from
- 1:00:35Speaker 2: the seventies that's set in a hotel pantry and has
- 1:00:38Speaker 2: a pantry in it would include so many different foods,
- 1:00:41Speaker 2: like so much of There's one moment where he's talking about, uh,
- 1:00:45Speaker 2: he loves to talk about the Luciferian androgyny symbolism, which
- 1:00:51Speaker 2: is just straight up transphobia, just pure transphobia. And there's
- 1:00:54Speaker 2: one moment where he's talking about Wendy Carlos, who was
- 1:00:58Speaker 2: the composer for both Clockwork Orange and The Shining and
- 1:01:05Speaker 2: she later transitioned in life and was a very an early,
- 1:01:10Speaker 2: like public out trans person. Yeah, and he go and
- 1:01:13Speaker 2: at one point he says, now, I'm not saying that, uh,
- 1:01:18Speaker 2: that she that this happened because of occult ideology, but
- 1:01:22Speaker 2: but it's just kind of left hanging out like, well,
- 1:01:25Speaker 2: fuck you, man, like seriously, fuck you.
- 1:01:27Speaker 1: And if it, if it hasn't already happened, I feel
- 1:01:30Speaker 1: like that's where a lot of uh, where a lot
- 1:01:35Speaker 1: of this transhuman agenda stuff is going on. I feel
- 1:01:40Speaker 1: like at some point he's he's gonna be like, well,
- 1:01:43Speaker 1: you know, trans people, that's so trying to soften you up.
- 1:01:47Speaker 2: I'm absolutely positive that that's already a thing that he
- 1:01:50Speaker 2: talks about, because he's got this one of the pictures
- 1:01:52Speaker 2: that I found of him online and which led me
- 1:01:55Speaker 2: to his website is him talking about uh drag performers,
- 1:02:00Speaker 2: the VMAs and what Illuminati agenda that is, but also
- 1:02:05Speaker 2: regarding the lucifery and androgyny. In Stanley Kubrick's The Shining,
- 1:02:11Speaker 2: there's a moment where he talks about and you know
- 1:02:13Speaker 2: in the bathroom here you have two sinks, a men's
- 1:02:18Speaker 2: sink and a woman sink, and then you have the
- 1:02:21Speaker 2: male toilet and the female bidet. And I'm like, oh, yeah, yeah, absolutely.
- 1:02:27Speaker 1: Sure, dude, the female beday.
- 1:02:29Speaker 2: Yes, I think he thinks that women, He like, just
- 1:02:34Speaker 2: use beidets for women exactly. Wow, that was the impression
- 1:02:40Speaker 2: that I got from what he was saying.
- 1:02:41Speaker 1: Please don't bidets. That would be horrifying for the person
- 1:02:44Speaker 1: who is correctly definitely them.
- 1:02:49Speaker 2: Just it's full of that kind of thing.
- 1:02:51Speaker 1: Yeah, And he talks about how the monolith stone from
- 1:02:56Speaker 1: which is a pretty important aspect of the movie, it's
- 1:03:00Speaker 1: made from loosite. Yeah, and this is an actual quote.
- 1:03:04Speaker 1: The Monoliths Stone from two thousand and one was made
- 1:03:07Speaker 1: from leosite, a patented form of plexiglass. I'd like to
- 1:03:11Speaker 1: go out on a limb and toss out the idea
- 1:03:15Speaker 1: that this closely resembles the name of Lucifer, the light Bearer.
- 1:03:19Speaker 1: Of course, Lucifer is the evil presence who provides the
- 1:03:23Speaker 1: sin that lures mankind into violent behaviors, like the apes,
- 1:03:28Speaker 1: drawing the analogous nature of the stone with Lucifer himself. Yeah,
- 1:03:32Speaker 1: but also Loosite was in so many movie sets of
- 1:03:37Speaker 1: that nature at the time because it looks cool.
- 1:03:40Speaker 2: Yeah it's black.
- 1:03:41Speaker 1: Yeah, it's black, and it's shining and.
- 1:03:43Speaker 2: Shiny in that big slab looks imposing an alien when
- 1:03:47Speaker 2: it's imposed against primitive beings.
- 1:03:51Speaker 1: And probably a lot easier to construct for a movie
- 1:03:56Speaker 1: than I don't know, a solid piece of granite.
- 1:03:59Speaker 2: Ye. In the original book, it's like clear is the
- 1:04:02Speaker 2: idea with things inside. I don't know. I haven't read
- 1:04:05Speaker 2: the original two thousand and one book. Yeah, he's obsessed
- 1:04:08Speaker 2: with Lucifer. At some point he's like, I can't even
- 1:04:12Speaker 2: remember what he's talking about this point, but he says,
- 1:04:14Speaker 2: you know, some people think that means Lucifer, and others
- 1:04:18Speaker 2: say it means nothing at all, which goes into the
- 1:04:21Speaker 2: whole Lucifer thing.
- 1:04:22Speaker 1: If you you know, so, how do you tell yeah,
- 1:04:26Speaker 1: how would you take take that?
- 1:04:27Speaker 2: How you will? Uh? It's absolutely Uh, this guy is
- 1:04:32Speaker 2: just a fucking moron. I really, that's my main conclusion
- 1:04:34Speaker 2: from this entire thing is this guy is a total
- 1:04:38Speaker 2: idiot who just has got this idea in his head,
- 1:04:43Speaker 2: is doing everything he can to back it up, and
- 1:04:46Speaker 2: it never makes any sense.
- 1:04:47Speaker 1: The thing, I don't think he believes this, and I
- 1:04:51Speaker 1: don't think he has I don't know.
- 1:04:53Speaker 2: It's hard to tell.
- 1:04:54Speaker 1: I it comes off to me like someone who doesn't
- 1:04:57Speaker 1: believe it but is too scared of what his audience
- 1:05:01Speaker 1: would think if he said that. Right, So he's just like,
- 1:05:04Speaker 1: I'm just I'm just presenting it as the facts are.
- 1:05:08Speaker 1: And it's like, well, a lot of this has probably
- 1:05:10Speaker 1: already been presented. We don't necessarily need that. But also
- 1:05:14Speaker 1: like I don't I don't know. I just I don't
- 1:05:18Speaker 1: trust it.
- 1:05:19Speaker 2: No, I don't trust it at all. Also I do.
- 1:05:22Speaker 2: I did want to talk a little bit about eyes
- 1:05:24Speaker 2: wide shut, which is like, it's what he's they're saying
- 1:05:27Speaker 2: is like the straw that broke the camel's back. That's
- 1:05:30Speaker 2: the one where the illumni is like, nah, man, no, man,
- 1:05:33Speaker 2: you've gone way too far. We got it. We got
- 1:05:35Speaker 2: it in this uh. And one of the one of
- 1:05:39Speaker 2: the things in this in this this is the text.
- 1:05:42Speaker 1: This is the one where he's like, this is it?
- 1:05:44Speaker 1: This is this is where he revealed too much. Uh.
- 1:05:46Speaker 2: He talks multiple times about Nicole Kidman's possible premonition abilities
- 1:05:52Speaker 2: in the film because he because Tom Cruise can't find
- 1:05:56Speaker 2: his wallet in one scene, and she knows that he
- 1:05:59Speaker 2: should look by the side table. Okay, Yeah, that's definitely psychic. Yeah,
- 1:06:04Speaker 2: and not just a wife knowing about what her husband
- 1:06:07Speaker 2: would do in that scene.
- 1:06:09Speaker 1: Yeah, that's pretty clear evidence that Nicole Kidman was psychic
- 1:06:13Speaker 1: in that.
- 1:06:14Speaker 2: And then my favorite moment about eyes wide shut is
- 1:06:18Speaker 2: during the party scene, one of the many orgy parties,
- 1:06:24Speaker 2: he's talking about an example of reptilian shape shifting in
- 1:06:29Speaker 2: the film. This seems, Oh man, I can't wait to
- 1:06:32Speaker 2: see what the evidence for this is. And he says,
- 1:06:35Speaker 2: in one shot, there's this woman walking with this guy
- 1:06:38Speaker 2: who's got this scarlet red dress. Does the scarlet mean anything?
- 1:06:41Speaker 2: Who knows?
- 1:06:41Speaker 1: I don't know.
- 1:06:41Speaker 2: I'm just you never know, you know, you know, that
- 1:06:43Speaker 2: could be relating to the horror of Babylon or whatever.
- 1:06:46Speaker 2: But you know, in one shot there's this woman in
- 1:06:49Speaker 2: the red dress. In another shot she seems to have
- 1:06:52Speaker 2: turned into a completely different person.
- 1:06:56Speaker 1: What that is cot R in a movie?
- 1:07:00Speaker 2: I know that couldn't possibly be a continuity error. It's
- 1:07:04Speaker 2: much too purposeful. It definitely isn't just they were filming
- 1:07:07Speaker 2: this fucking party. Yeah, and they didn't have the exact
- 1:07:11Speaker 2: right people in the same spot.
- 1:07:13Speaker 1: So you mean two women both wore the same color
- 1:07:18Speaker 1: dress to that party, and no one's let it slip
- 1:07:22Speaker 1: for this long.
- 1:07:24Speaker 2: So that's their big that's one of the big things
- 1:07:27Speaker 2: in this straw that broke the camel's back.
- 1:07:29Speaker 1: Yeah, like this guy's this guy's trolling conspiracy theorists.
- 1:07:34Speaker 2: But like, I don't know, man, I he seems like
- 1:07:38Speaker 2: he could believe it. Who knows. It's just it's just
- 1:07:42Speaker 2: there's so much that it's just catastrophically stupid.
- 1:07:46Speaker 1: It's Yeah, that's the thing I got. Like I said,
- 1:07:49Speaker 1: I wanted to do an episode about every movie, so
- 1:07:52Speaker 1: I was like, I'm just gonna there's not enough. Yeah,
- 1:07:54Speaker 1: there's not enough. And it's not like.
- 1:07:56Speaker 2: Even he ran out of stuff to talk about once
- 1:07:58Speaker 2: he got past It's not Compound two thousand and one,
- 1:08:01Speaker 2: and like the clockor Gorne stuff didn't make any sense.
- 1:08:04Speaker 2: I couldn't make heads or tails of what he was
- 1:08:06Speaker 2: trying to say. The imagery in Clockorgornge meant. I think
- 1:08:10Speaker 2: it had something to do with MK ultra stuff, which
- 1:08:15Speaker 2: again not an Illuminati thing. Not an Illuminati thing, US
- 1:08:19Speaker 2: government thing. I mean, unless you're using the broadest possible
- 1:08:23Speaker 2: like definition of Illuminati. I guess what he is and
- 1:08:27Speaker 2: he is, yeah, yeah, like and it he could be
- 1:08:32Speaker 2: talking about. There's just no evidence. There's no evidence. I
- 1:08:36Speaker 2: just keep breaking down when it comes to this because
- 1:08:38Speaker 2: I you know again, you know, I like these movies.
- 1:08:40Speaker 2: They're good movies, and they are insanely deep and so
- 1:08:46Speaker 2: rich with meaning you can it's so fun to dive
- 1:08:51Speaker 2: into a Kubrick movie and really think about.
- 1:08:54Speaker 1: AOA fans who helped guide our.
- 1:08:58Speaker 2: History exactly and the Illuminati. No, but it's just like
- 1:09:02Speaker 2: fucking the things that he's talking about in this movie
- 1:09:05Speaker 2: and the symbols that he does actually use are so
- 1:09:08Speaker 2: rich and so interesting, and I love to think about them,
- 1:09:13Speaker 2: and I would love to watch these movies. Yeah, And
- 1:09:16Speaker 2: this is like trying its absolute best to ruin these movies,
- 1:09:21Speaker 2: like from an intellectual standpoint and make them seem so
- 1:09:26Speaker 2: simple and basic, right, Like this is all like you
- 1:09:31Speaker 2: would think a conspiracy theory would be adding complexity to
- 1:09:34Speaker 2: a subject, whereas there's no complexity here. This is all
- 1:09:38Speaker 2: just everything means the Illuminati. That's it. That's all. It is.
- 1:09:42Speaker 2: This thing that you thought meant something else, it means
- 1:09:44Speaker 2: the Illuminati. This other thing, it means the Illuminati. Jack
- 1:09:47Speaker 2: Nicholson being in this movie Illuminati.
- 1:09:49Speaker 1: Like I'm telling you, the Illuminati is a brand. The
- 1:09:54Speaker 1: Illuminati is fucking supreme. Like they are a fucking label
- 1:10:01Speaker 1: the government puts on shit so they can get away
- 1:10:03Speaker 1: with whatever the fuck they want. And the people who
- 1:10:07Speaker 1: would actually maybe look into it just go the Illuminati
- 1:10:10Speaker 1: and it's like, now it's just the guy. It's just
- 1:10:12Speaker 1: our government is doing bad things. I don't think even
- 1:10:15Speaker 1: that is like what's going on here?
- 1:10:18Speaker 2: This is just this is just a person with some
- 1:10:21Speaker 2: sort of undiagnosed obsessive disorder who I think he's.
- 1:10:26Speaker 1: Just motivated by wanting to make money.
- 1:10:29Speaker 2: But like, there are easier ways to make money on
- 1:10:31Speaker 2: this stuff than writing a whole less book and doing
- 1:10:36Speaker 2: a three hour movie. Like, yeah, there's way easier ways, man,
- 1:10:39Speaker 2: you could charge. You could probably charge the same amount
- 1:10:42Speaker 2: for an hour long movie.
- 1:10:43Speaker 1: That's true.
- 1:10:44Speaker 2: This is what I'm saying, Like it takes some sort
- 1:10:48Speaker 2: of strange compulsion to make you do a three hour
- 1:10:54Speaker 2: three hours that's bullshit. It Yeah, like you have to
- 1:11:03Speaker 2: like say, like I'll you know, I've said plenty about
- 1:11:06Speaker 2: this guy, but he definitely has an encyclopedic knowledge of
- 1:11:11Speaker 2: dumb shit that doesn't exist. Like he absolutely knows back
- 1:11:16Speaker 2: and forth all of the fake symbols and shit that
- 1:11:19Speaker 2: he is reading into this movie right, Like he has
- 1:11:23Speaker 2: done the research, even if it's from bad sources.
- 1:11:27Speaker 1: But even then, like a lot of this that's that's
- 1:11:30Speaker 1: part of what I'm getting at the symbols. Like I
- 1:11:33Speaker 1: read an article once that put forth the idea that
- 1:11:36Speaker 1: the way to win on Jeopardy when you're doing the
- 1:11:40Speaker 1: research ahead of time, you don't have to know everything
- 1:11:43Speaker 1: about every field. You have to know the basics right
- 1:11:46Speaker 1: about as many fields as you can. And like it
- 1:11:50Speaker 1: feels like like it feels like that, like yeah, it's
- 1:11:54Speaker 1: just like the basics And he wants to, I don't know,
- 1:11:57Speaker 1: be the guy who compiles the basics and is like.
- 1:12:00Speaker 2: But again, there's so many other sources for that. That's
- 1:12:02Speaker 2: all that conspiracy theories are Yeah, is compiling the basics
- 1:12:07Speaker 2: and putting everything into some sort of order like it
- 1:12:11Speaker 2: really is. I'm surprised that this thing is made money.
- 1:12:15Speaker 2: I don't know how much money he's made off of this.
- 1:12:17Speaker 2: Who knows. There's no way he's releasing those numbers.
- 1:12:19Speaker 1: He was on Dave Navarro's podcast. I've never been on
- 1:12:23Speaker 1: Dave Navarro's podcast.
- 1:12:26Speaker 2: Can I like I'll.
- 1:12:27Speaker 1: Get a tattoo? I think? Has me on his conspiracy
- 1:12:30Speaker 1: theory podcast.
- 1:12:31Speaker 2: You know, I've seen Dave Navarro play music live, and
- 1:12:34Speaker 2: I will say I think they both put the same
- 1:12:37Speaker 2: amount of effort into the quality of their work as
- 1:12:41Speaker 2: as as each other. Because David Barrow I saw them.
- 1:12:44Speaker 2: I saw him play during With Jane's Addiction, and uh,
- 1:12:48Speaker 2: it was the laziest guitar playing I've ever seen in
- 1:12:51Speaker 2: my entire life.
- 1:12:52Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't think I've ever seen Dave Navarro live.
- 1:12:55Speaker 2: It was so bad, but just a guy listlessly, like
- 1:12:59Speaker 2: staring off into the middle distance, like probably, yeah, I sure,
- 1:13:06Speaker 2: who knows? I'm sure I know is that his guitar
- 1:13:09Speaker 2: playing was as sloppy as the editing and narration on
- 1:13:13Speaker 2: that fucking.
- 1:13:13Speaker 1: Movie I watched. Maybe that's why he had the guy
- 1:13:15Speaker 1: on the podcast.
- 1:13:16Speaker 2: And like, yeah, I feel like I don't know, if
- 1:13:20Speaker 2: he was just doing it for money, it could be better,
- 1:13:22Speaker 2: Like it would be more interesting to watch. It wouldn't
- 1:13:26Speaker 2: just be catering to the hardcourt conspiracy crowd. It'd be
- 1:13:29Speaker 2: like that shitty Room two three seven documentary, which I
- 1:13:32Speaker 2: did not like.
- 1:13:33Speaker 1: I didn't. I turned it off. I tried to watch it.
- 1:13:35Speaker 1: It is a few months or maybe like last year
- 1:13:38Speaker 1: or something, and I didn't get that far into it.
- 1:13:40Speaker 2: It's almost as stupid as this. But the thing that
- 1:13:43Speaker 2: it has is it it also talks to other people
- 1:13:45Speaker 2: besides conspiracy theorists, so you know, and it's got a
- 1:13:49Speaker 2: stylistic thing going for it. But this is like shittier
- 1:13:53Speaker 2: Room two three seven, but with other stuff.
- 1:13:56Speaker 1: Yeah, and the like the the thing about him having
- 1:14:00Speaker 1: like this encyclopedic knowledge, like what I was getting at
- 1:14:03Speaker 1: with the Jeopardy thing is like he only has to
- 1:14:06Speaker 1: know the real basics of Illuminati stuff and then you're
- 1:14:10Speaker 1: gonna see it everywhere, sure, yeah, because it's stuff like
- 1:14:13Speaker 1: triangles and right angles and can't believe this and eyes
- 1:14:19Speaker 1: and it's like, come on.
- 1:14:21Speaker 2: I think and I do think that Kubrick appeals to
- 1:14:23Speaker 2: these people because his movies are so perfectly composed and
- 1:14:28Speaker 2: are obsessed with right angles and with symmetry, which plays
- 1:14:33Speaker 2: into the syme. Like they're all obsessed with dualism and
- 1:14:36Speaker 2: symmetry and ship with all of these symbols. And yeah,
- 1:14:40Speaker 2: his movies have you can see that stuff because he
- 1:14:43Speaker 2: was a like photographer who is obsessed with framing things.
- 1:14:46Speaker 2: That was his whole deal.
- 1:14:48Speaker 1: So I don't know. Yeah, I'm sorry, Like, uh.
- 1:14:53Speaker 2: No, I think this is this has been interesting.
- 1:14:56Speaker 1: Well, we'll do We'll do a theory that I believe
- 1:14:58Speaker 1: again soon it.
- 1:14:59Speaker 2: Sure, this is definitely one of the dumbest fucking things
- 1:15:02Speaker 2: I've ever sat through.
- 1:15:04Speaker 1: If you're if you're home listening to this, angry that
- 1:15:07Speaker 1: I missed all the really compelling evidence that Stanley Kubrick
- 1:15:11Speaker 1: filmed moonlanding footage. Yeah, fucking hit me up. Uh, I
- 1:15:16Speaker 1: don't know, email me through the website. Sure, I guess
- 1:15:19Speaker 1: that's all I'm comfortable with these days. Don't fucking tweet
- 1:15:21Speaker 1: at me, don't don't don't talk to me about any
- 1:15:24Speaker 1: of this, don't tag me in your Instagram story. Oh no,
- 1:15:29Speaker 1: I won't watch uh, but email me through the on
- 1:15:33Speaker 1: Pop's website, and uh, if there's something I'm missing about,
- 1:15:38Speaker 1: are you out there Isaac wise hopped.
- 1:15:41Speaker 2: That was his last name, right, I don't know, is
- 1:15:44Speaker 2: Isaac something, Isaac Weisse something.
- 1:15:46Speaker 1: If you're out there listening and I'm just missing the
- 1:15:49Speaker 1: compelling part of the evidence that Stanley Kubrick just did
- 1:15:53Speaker 1: film fake moonlanding footage, I'm open to hearing it. The
- 1:15:57Speaker 1: Illuminati shit is not in sight.
- 1:16:00Speaker 2: Don't know what he could say that he didn't already
- 1:16:03Speaker 2: cover in his two hour and forty minute movies.
- 1:16:07Speaker 1: Yeah, he's had ample opportunity.
- 1:16:09Speaker 2: And a whole ass book and an audiobook, right, So
- 1:16:14Speaker 2: I mean, if that isn't the exhaustive chronicling of everything
- 1:16:21Speaker 2: that supports this theory, then again, and I've asked this
- 1:16:24Speaker 2: so many times while I was watching this, what was
- 1:16:28Speaker 2: the point? Yes, if it's not going to be if
- 1:16:32Speaker 2: you're not making an effort to make it seem professional,
- 1:16:35Speaker 2: if you're not making an effort to make it seem
- 1:16:38Speaker 2: uh completely airtight factually by not say, including mistakes in
- 1:16:44Speaker 2: the narration, Like, if you're not going through these effort,
- 1:16:48Speaker 2: then why even fucking do it?
- 1:16:50Speaker 1: And I think that we could That's always a good
- 1:16:55Speaker 1: question to ask about any conspiracy theory. Also, yeah, is
- 1:16:59Speaker 1: what is the point? And we mentioned to earlier that
- 1:17:05Speaker 1: I think you can answer what was the point? And
- 1:17:07Speaker 1: there was a fucking outcome that was achieved, which would
- 1:17:10Speaker 1: be Uh, if there was a cover up of Saudi
- 1:17:14Speaker 1: involvement in nine to eleven, we know what the point
- 1:17:17Speaker 1: would be. It would be to protect our allies exactly. Uh.
- 1:17:20Speaker 1: And also like like we know what the point would
- 1:17:24Speaker 1: be and we know the outcome is that, Yeah, we've
- 1:17:26Speaker 1: never implicated Saudi Arabia in doing that, and with the
- 1:17:30Speaker 1: JFK thing, we would know what the outcome was. Is
- 1:17:33Speaker 1: that history just decided Lee Harvey Oswald did it? And
- 1:17:37Speaker 1: why because the government wanted to cover it up. What's
- 1:17:40Speaker 1: the fucking point of this Stanley Kubrick thing.
- 1:17:42Speaker 2: I mean it's literally just like especially the Illuminati stuff,
- 1:17:46Speaker 2: which is just like.
- 1:17:47Speaker 1: Like, yeah, what is he trying Like who was supposed
- 1:17:51Speaker 1: to see this?
- 1:17:52Speaker 2: And yeah, is he trying to convince Is it.
- 1:17:55Speaker 1: Supposed to light a spark in someone to go take
- 1:17:57Speaker 1: down the Illuminati?
- 1:17:58Speaker 2: If these are supposed to be warnings, then why weren't
- 1:18:01Speaker 2: they clearer in the text instead of being symbols that
- 1:18:05Speaker 2: some lunatic has to dig through to apply meaning to
- 1:18:09Speaker 2: right in order to make this theory make sense.
- 1:18:12Speaker 1: And why would they wait until he was seventy eight
- 1:18:15Speaker 1: to kill him? That's what he's been doing his entire life, this, guys, Like.
- 1:18:20Speaker 2: It's really yeah, a very depressing theory. And if you
- 1:18:24Speaker 2: are a person like me who enjoys film and enjoys
- 1:18:28Speaker 2: the films of Stanley Kubrick, it is one of the
- 1:18:31Speaker 2: most frustrating experiences to sit through because I just kept
- 1:18:37Speaker 2: screaming at the screen, like, no, it does this has
- 1:18:42Speaker 2: nothing to do with any this is not what this means,
- 1:18:44Speaker 2: Like it's so.
- 1:18:45Speaker 1: Fus could no probably probably not even that.
- 1:18:49Speaker 2: I got so sick of his fucking phrasing by the
- 1:18:52Speaker 2: end of that thing, because it is literally again and
- 1:18:55Speaker 2: not the harp on it, but like it is just
- 1:18:57Speaker 2: I don't know, maybe.
- 1:18:59Speaker 1: That's what I'm saying. He presents this in a way
- 1:19:01Speaker 1: that he like doesn't want to take responsibility.
- 1:19:03Speaker 2: If you're making money off of it, just fucking say
- 1:19:05Speaker 2: it declaratively.
- 1:19:07Speaker 1: Yeah, and don't call yourself like his website is called
- 1:19:09Speaker 1: the Illuminati Watcher, Yeah.
- 1:19:12Speaker 2: You are an Illuminati speculator.
- 1:19:15Speaker 1: So that's the Stanley Kubrick conspiracy. Sure is uh episode
- 1:19:22Speaker 1: one of one. I can't picture going any deeper.
- 1:19:27Speaker 2: Like I can't even think of anything else that would
- 1:19:29Speaker 2: be worth talking about.
- 1:19:31Speaker 1: Yes, I'm not gonna watch The Shining one of my
- 1:19:35Speaker 1: favorite films for the twenty thousandth time, except this time
- 1:19:39Speaker 1: looking for reasons why it sucks, Like, yeah, I just
- 1:19:43Speaker 1: I can't.
- 1:19:44Speaker 2: Again, just the worst way to watch these movies.
- 1:19:47Speaker 1: Yeah, there's so much a notepad out, there's so much,
- 1:19:52Speaker 1: there's so much. The Shinings so fucking good. It's a
- 1:19:55Speaker 1: great movie, and that's a thing. Don't in any way
- 1:19:58Speaker 1: take this as an indict the films of Stanley Kuper.
- 1:20:01Speaker 1: No watch them all.
- 1:20:04Speaker 2: He's one of the greatest filmmakers of all time, Like
- 1:20:07Speaker 2: he has been. His legacy has been co opted by
- 1:20:11Speaker 2: not just this guy, but like a bunch of these
- 1:20:13Speaker 2: shittiest people in the world right now, like the kind
- 1:20:16Speaker 2: of intellectual dark web types who have kind of tried
- 1:20:20Speaker 2: to claim him as one of their own, as one
- 1:20:23Speaker 2: of these logical, ripe brain thinkers who's like I, you know,
- 1:20:28Speaker 2: he's cold and hard and focused on facts and like
- 1:20:33Speaker 2: no man, his movies are so emotional and like they're
- 1:20:37Speaker 2: presented in this very matter of fact way, But the
- 1:20:41Speaker 2: whole idea is that they're that's contrasting with the emotions
- 1:20:45Speaker 2: going on. It's it's he's so much deeper than what
- 1:20:48Speaker 2: these people are trying to make him into. And definitely,
- 1:20:51Speaker 2: don't you don't hold any assholes opinion of Stanley Kubrick
- 1:20:57Speaker 2: against him. He was a great filmmaker.
- 1:20:59Speaker 1: And that and even then, I feel like the the
- 1:21:02Speaker 1: theory isn't necessarily presenting Kubrick as a bad guy. They're
- 1:21:05Speaker 1: like presenting him as this.
- 1:21:07Speaker 2: But the presenting hum has a.
- 1:21:09Speaker 1: Crusader of truth who was trying to let us know
- 1:21:11Speaker 1: about the Illuminati.
- 1:21:12Speaker 2: But at the same time they are though simplifying him
- 1:21:16Speaker 2: as a person into this purely like black and white,
- 1:21:21Speaker 2: like I'm just making movies about the Illuminati. I don't
- 1:21:24Speaker 2: know about what you guys are talking about. And whereas
- 1:21:27Speaker 2: he just had so much more going on. He was
- 1:21:29Speaker 2: such an more interesting person than anything that this movie
- 1:21:33Speaker 2: or this book would lead you to believe.
- 1:21:35Speaker 1: That he was.
- 1:21:37Speaker 2: Watch watch his movies, Watch watch two, Do one. It's great.
- 1:21:40Speaker 1: It's a great movie.
- 1:21:41Speaker 2: It really is super engaging and super interesting to watch.
- 1:21:45Speaker 2: That was I did want to say. He talks multiple
- 1:21:48Speaker 2: times about when when he's talking about how he's like,
- 1:21:50Speaker 2: how could Stanley Kuprick have envisioned humanity coming to rely
- 1:21:55Speaker 2: so much on technology and uh, creating these super advanced computers? Like,
- 1:22:00Speaker 2: I don't know, man, Maybe he saw human history leading
- 1:22:03Speaker 2: up to the sixties.
- 1:22:05Speaker 1: Maybe he's writing a or directing a work of science fiction. Yeah,
- 1:22:09Speaker 1: and that was a theme in all fucking science fiction.
- 1:22:13Speaker 2: Maybe ever, maybe he grew up in a world post
- 1:22:15Speaker 2: nuclear bomb attacks, Yeah, which altered the conception of reality
- 1:22:21Speaker 2: at the time.
- 1:22:22Speaker 1: Yeah. It's like science fiction has been fucking with these
- 1:22:25Speaker 1: themes forever and.
- 1:22:27Speaker 2: Also again, and it should not be It can't be overstated.
- 1:22:31Speaker 2: The three main texts, the three main movies that they
- 1:22:35Speaker 2: talk about that he talks about in this book and
- 1:22:38Speaker 2: documentary are based on novels written by different people, right,
- 1:22:43Speaker 2: and Stanley Kubrick adapted these things, so any sort of
- 1:22:48Speaker 2: symbology for the most part, Like, even though the Shining
- 1:22:51Speaker 2: is very different from the Stephen King book, like they're
- 1:22:54Speaker 2: still taking like so much of the stuff is from
- 1:22:57Speaker 2: the book that they are talking about, Right, It's like, well, no,
- 1:23:00Speaker 2: it's just.
- 1:23:00Speaker 1: Like the book. In the movie, they're different, but like
- 1:23:03Speaker 1: the endings are radically different, but there are a lot
- 1:23:06Speaker 1: of similarities as well.
- 1:23:08Speaker 2: It is it is definitely an adaptation of the novel, right, so,
- 1:23:12Speaker 2: like you know, and same with the cloudberg Gornge, which
- 1:23:15Speaker 2: is very much an adaptation of the Anthony Burgess book.
- 1:23:18Speaker 2: And you know, you can't discount.
- 1:23:21Speaker 1: That Jack Nicholson was reading a playgirl in the lobby.
- 1:23:24Speaker 2: Yeah, oh my god, the playroll thing. They have no
- 1:23:27Speaker 2: idea what he's trying.
- 1:23:28Speaker 1: They're trying to say about Jack Nicholson's character in The
- 1:23:30Speaker 1: Shining No at all.
- 1:23:32Speaker 2: Yeah, there's just all sorts of they're throwing ship at
- 1:23:34Speaker 2: the wall.
- 1:23:35Speaker 1: And just read the book.
- 1:23:36Speaker 2: Read the book. It's a good book.
- 1:23:37Speaker 1: Yeah, read the book. You'll get an idea what Jack
- 1:23:39Speaker 1: Nicholson's character in that movie is.
- 1:23:41Speaker 2: Yeah, good dude, you know, he's a shitty.
- 1:23:43Speaker 1: Guy actually portrayed kind of favorably in the movie. Yeah.
- 1:23:46Speaker 2: I mean, I would say, if you want to late, like,
- 1:23:49Speaker 2: one of the criticisms that you could level at The
- 1:23:52Speaker 2: Shining movie is that he is insane. From frame one
- 1:23:56Speaker 2: of that film, he is a crazy person and instead
- 1:23:59Speaker 2: of starting out as a relatively normal guy with problems
- 1:24:03Speaker 2: who then devolves into madness.
- 1:24:06Speaker 1: Right, I could get it. That's a whole other, whole
- 1:24:08Speaker 1: other thing.
- 1:24:08Speaker 2: But like yeah, and then same with you know, and
- 1:24:10Speaker 2: then with two thousand and one. Like all of the
- 1:24:12Speaker 2: imagery that they're talking about comes from the Arthur C.
- 1:24:14Speaker 2: Clark book. It's not a Stanley Kubrick invention. Invention, Yeah,
- 1:24:18Speaker 2: so what's the point here? Why why Kubrick?
- 1:24:21Speaker 1: He's not saying this is real, He's just saying he's
- 1:24:25Speaker 1: just asking questions. I'm just telling you the evidence to
- 1:24:29Speaker 1: look for in the movie. It's just telling you there's
- 1:24:32Speaker 1: an eyeball in a clockwork orange.
- 1:24:35Speaker 2: Yeah, it's close to a triangle, right.
- 1:24:38Speaker 1: All right, So this is a long app This was
- 1:24:41Speaker 1: a shockingly long episode.
- 1:24:43Speaker 2: There's a lot to get to.
- 1:24:44Speaker 1: Yeah. Uh, we'll be releasing this as an ebook, as
- 1:24:49Speaker 1: a video, as a four hour podcast. This is just
- 1:24:54Speaker 1: the previews.
- 1:24:54Speaker 2: Yeah, we got to block out of time to do
- 1:24:56Speaker 2: all of the narration for the movie.
- 1:24:59Speaker 1: Yeah, we're going to do it all in one field, exactly.
- 1:25:01Speaker 1: Get real tired by the end.
- 1:25:03Speaker 2: Honestly, you might as well just use this as the narration.
- 1:25:06Speaker 1: Yeah, that's true. I'll just put video over it.
- 1:25:08Speaker 2: There you go. We're gonna be about as much effort
- 1:25:10Speaker 2: as he puts it.
- 1:25:11Speaker 1: It's gonna be called debunking the Kubrick code, and it's
- 1:25:15Speaker 1: gonna be the second search result. That's actually not a
- 1:25:19Speaker 1: terrible idea, but uh, that's our episode for now. This
- 1:25:22Speaker 1: one warm me out.
- 1:25:24Speaker 2: It's it's exhausting like this.
- 1:25:27Speaker 1: Uh, subscribe to uh patreon dot com slash on pops
- 1:25:32Speaker 1: to get bonus conspiracy theory stuff. We're gonna be recapping
- 1:25:37Speaker 1: ancient aliens. Might do some interview type bonus episodes. Maybe
- 1:25:42Speaker 1: interview some aliens what to get. Yeah, that would be

- 1:26:16Speaker 1: but just to that, yeah, burn it down to like
- 1:26:19Speaker 1: yeah two thousand and six. Sure, in terms of Internet progress.
- 1:26:22Speaker 1: It's not like no everything else.
- 1:26:24Speaker 2: No, I would certainly not like to go back to
- 1:26:26Speaker 2: two thousand and six.
- 1:26:27Speaker 1: Yeah, well no one what we know now? No, Still,
- 1:26:31Speaker 1: maybe we don't air the Celebrity Apprentice.
- 1:26:33Speaker 2: Hey there you go. That would be if we could. Yeah,
- 1:26:36Speaker 2: that's like that's the new kill Baby Hitler thing. Yes,
- 1:26:40Speaker 2: go back, and I would stop the Celebrity Apprentice. Uh
