Today's episode is the Mandela Effect. How this episode will go today is that we will first cover a quick overview of what the Mandela Effect is, who created the term, and then we will roll into examples of the Mandela Effect. We'll start off with a couple of random examples, and then we'll go into more specific ones like foods, movies, TV shows, music-related Mandela Effects, and

and animals. And then after that, we'll roll into the theories and what could be behind the Mandela Effect. And then we'll wrap it all up with our personal thoughts and theories. So with that being said, let's start today's episode. So what is the Mandela Effect? Well, do you ever have those moments where you remember something one way or it happened at a certain time? Then when you go back and read or talk about it,

It is totally different from what you remember. That is the Mandela Effect. It is an absurd phenomenon when someone has a clear memory of something that never happened in this reality. Many of these individuals, mostly total strangers, remember the exact same events with the almost identical details. However, their memories are different from what's in history books, newspaper archives, and so on.

Now, these Mandela effects are not only just events, but also happen with song lyrics, movie quotes, spelling of various foods, pretty much everything in our world. Now, before we hop into some examples of the Mandela effect, let's quickly discuss who created the term Mandela effect. Back in 2009, a paranormal researcher, Fiona Broome,

detailed how she remembered former South African President Nelson Mandela dying in the 1980s in prison, although Mandela lived until 2013. Fiona described remembering news coverage of Mandela's death and even a speech from his widow about his death, yet none of it happened. Fiona started to notice that other people remembered Mandela dying in 1980s back in prison, exactly the same as she remembered it.

Even though the event never happened, she wasn't the only one who felt like it did. As a result, the term "Mandela Effect" was born. This term caught fire and became mainstream as individuals all over the world started to notice weird things changing for them. These so-called "Mandela Effects" are plentiful, and we will have a lot of examples here, there are so many more online to go look through.

Aaron, do you want to start us off with some of these? Well, I could throw in some information about Fiona Brew real quick. Oh, yeah, go ahead. Let's hear some more information about Fiona. This is how I think it all started with her naming it the Mandela Effect is she went to Dragon Con and she was there to talk about some other topic. And she ended up starting talking to one of the security guards there. Now, her whole memory of the Mandela dying in the 1980s, she never said nothing about it.

He brought it up and he remembered how she remembered it. So that's how she ended up starting the,

And then that caught on and then that's when she named it like the Mandela effect. That's good to know. So she was keeping it to herself because she's just like, okay, maybe there's just something with me thinking it was different. But then when she realized other people were remembering it the same way. Boom. Knowledge nuggets. We love those. Dan, always bringing them in. I love you. I love you too. All right. So now we're going to roll into, I guess, some examples of the Mandela effect. Okay.

Okay, so if you've heard of the Mandela Effect, you've heard of this Bernstein or Bernstein Bears, correct? It is a children's book. Many individuals remember it as the Bernstein Bears. However, it is now the Bernstein Bears. Every single person I talk to says it is the Bernstein Bears. I specifically remember it as being the Bernstein Bears because of the song.

However, that's incorrect. And it's the Bernstein. What about you, Anna? Do you remember it as Bernstein or Bernstein? She's got a Bernstein bear shirt on. It says, I want to believe it was always Bernstein bear or it was always Bernstein. Obviously, it's Bernstein for you. It is. Not stain. What about you, Dan? I've never heard anybody call it Bernstein. Yeah, I've never heard of it called that either.

Alright, well, that's the first one. I figured we'd start off with that one. Let's go to the next one. I found this one yesterday, and it kind of blew my mind. Skechers. The shoe. How do you remember it being spelled? S-K-E-T-C-H-E-R. Skechers. Yeah. S-K-E-T-C-H-E-R-S. Skechers.

It's not like that anymore. It is S-K-E-C-H-E-R-S. There's no T. That's so weird.

That it doesn't even look right when you look at it now. I call bullshit. It doesn't. I'm trying to think of back when I'd watch, um, like Legends of the Hidden Temple. And, you know, the prizes they got were always like, new pair of Skechers shoes! Or Levi jeans! I wonder if I go back and watch those, if they would spell it with a T or without.

Yeah. Okay. The next one, Statue of Liberty Torch. Now, there's many accounts of individuals saying that they could climb up to the Statue of Liberty and actually go into the torch. I remember that. Yeah. What about you, Dan? I knew you could, but I never knew it was open to the public. I have a specific memory of my mother taking me there to the Statue of Liberty and us going up to the torch. Wow.

Really? But yeah, I clearly remember being taken up to the torch with my mother. I think my father was there too.

Do y'all remember ever going to the Torch? I've never been to New York. Okay. Dan? I've never been to the Statue of Liberty. I've been to New York, but never gone up. Okay. Never mind. Do y'all have any ones you want to talk about? Because we got a lot on this list. I know. All right, Dan, what do you have for us? Did y'all ever learn about George Washington's teeth? Hell yeah. Yeah, 100%. I remember that. They're made of wood. They're made of wood. I remember specifically George Washington's teeth being made of wood. Yeah. Yeah.

You see pictures of it when he smiled, like it showed like you could, they look like wood teeth to me. At least to me. Yeah. I can't remember what he looks like when he smiles, but I remember learning he had wood teeth because I was like, that's a very weird thing to have. But okay, back in the day, that's what they did. Did y'all actually know that it was made from horse, cow, and human teeth? Not until I freaking read this. What? Read up on it. Blew my mind. They had dentures made out of that? I guess. And they put it in their mouth? And lead.

Oh my God. And there's a video that we linked to that shows a set of them and how the hinging is springs. And Washington actually had to bite down to keep his mouth shut. And in turn, it gave him a structurally different mouth. And when you look at his, even the face that we have on the dollar bill, his jaw kind of protrudes forward.

Which would make sense if he was constantly having to clench down to keep his mouth shut. Imagine wearing those things and him talking in them. Hi, how's it going? He had fucked up teeth, though. I was reading about him and how when he became president, he only had one tooth left in his mouth. He lost about a tooth a year through his lifetime. He must have been smoking a lot of meth. Anyways, that's, man. Do you think when it was cold that his mouth would hurt? Ooh. Ooh.

Probably. Good thought, Dan. So what's this video link here? That's a video of the set that I was referring to with the lady talking about them and you actually seeing what they look like. And how could you imagine that being in your mouth up against your gums? You got that inside of his gums where his cheek is? That shit must have been pinched a bunch. Oh, God, Dan, that made my cheeks hurt.

If I was a millionaire, I'd buy those and wear them. Oh. All right. Walk around. How you doing? All right. Well, thank you for that one, Daniel. I love it. Crazy. All right. What else you got for us? Okay. I'll throw one out there. This is a more recent one that I noticed. You know, the pressure cooker that's really popular that everyone has. Is it called an Instant Pot?

Or an instapot. Instapot. Instant pot? In this reality, it's called an instant pot. But I've always called it an instapot. I remember seeing logos with the combined word of instapot. I told a friend about this. She would not believe me. And she was like, no, I know it's instapot. And she went and looked at hers and was like, what the hell?

And sure enough, now you could see people writing recipes on Pinterest that say Instapot and other people say Instant Pot. To me, it's Instapot. But I'm not from this reality is what I'm learning.

Which is kind of scary to think about that something as recent as Instapot changed. That means I probably have died fairly recently in another reality and shifted into this one. It's possible. We'll go into more of that in thoughts and theories at the end. Boom. Mm-hmm. All right. Who wants to grab another one? Challenger shuttle explosion date. What year did that happen? 86? I'm really bad at dates, but for some reason that was the first number that popped in my mind.

I don't know. I don't remember exactly what date. Yeah. Yeah, I couldn't tell you exactly. I remember. Go ahead and tell us a date and then I'll tell you my story about it. A lot of people believe 1984, 1985 and 1986. It actually happened in 1986. See, I find that crazy because.

Do you remember, we're all around the same age, right? Early 30s. Remember when the teacher would roll in the big ass TVs on the cart? Oh yeah. The tube TVs with a strap down to it? Yeah. So I remember specifically this was, what grade was I in? Fifth, I want to say, watching this and-

The teachers making a big deal about it at the time and making us watch it. Then all of a sudden it exploded. And then the teachers and everybody freaking out. But this happened in 86 and I wasn't even born then. So I don't know. It's really odd. Maybe it's something from my past life. I don't know. I guess we'll get into that during theories. Crazy. Anyways, I guess let's continue. All right, Anna, what do you got for us?

So, Teddy Roosevelt was probably one of our most badass presidents. He did a lot of things that you wouldn't expect. So, when you were growing up, I'm sure you heard about Teddy Roosevelt and he was boxing a kangaroo. I can imagine imagery of this.

Well, apparently that never happened. And most of us would believe it because of the type of life he's lived. I mean, the dude got shot and sat up on stage for 40 more minutes to finish his speech. But he never fought a kangaroo.

And that residual evidence can be found on a Futurama episode where Bender is fighting a kangaroo and Teddy Roosevelt has his head in a jar. And he says something like, a person fighting a kangaroo, that's interesting, but a robot fighting a kangaroo, now that's peculiar.

So even in there, they reference it. And Futurama to me is on the same path as The Simpsons, where they definitely released some shit to us and we just got to pay attention to it. So that was an interesting find that I saw there. Teddy Roosevelt, speaking of him. So I do remember faintly about him boxing a kangaroo. What about you, Dan? Do you remember that?

I honestly did never heard of that. Oh, you didn't pay attention in history class then. History was probably my weakest subject. Speaking of history, what about the Tiananmen Square Tank Man? So, you know, they're during the protests in China in 1989.

The Tiananmen Square protest, that scene of that guy standing in front of the tank. Do any of y'all remember him getting ran over or him moving out of the way? I feel like I remember him being run over because it was like a big shock of like what they actually just ran that dude over. I remember the same thing. However, that's not the case anymore.

But yeah, what about you, Dan? Do you remember him getting ran over? I kind of do remember him getting ran over. Now that you mention it. Oh, man. Yeah, it's some weird stuff with this Mandela effect. Uncle Sam, does his top hat have stripes? Yes. Yeah. It never had stripes. So if you look up the Uncle Sam poster and you look at his top hat, never had stripes. It's white, which looks very weird.

Dude, I used this as a graphic and I didn't catch that. What the hell? Oh, that's not normal. He almost looks different too, actually. His actual face looks different. Yeah, it does. So there is another poster. No, I don't, I don't, I've never seen that poster. No, I just saw that one. Oh, here's a vintage Uncle Sam poster.

It's weird, even though all the hats and stuff they sell now have stripes, but his hat never had stripes. Yeah. So even in past posters of Uncle Sam, different ones, different posters, it shows him with stripes on his hat. However, in the official, I want you for the U.S. Army and him pointing.

He doesn't have stripes on his top hat. Very, very odd. Yeah. Hmm. And he almost looks younger in some weird way. I know he's got white hair and he is older, but I feel like I remember the old Uncle Sam being a bit older. Like, add six or seven years to this guy. Yeah. Interesting. Very. That is. All right. So what's the next one that we got?

Do y'all remember? Okay, so for me, it was the cafeteria floor. They get all the students and we'd all sit on the floor and we have the group dare come in to school and talk to us. The drug group. Yeah. Do you know what dare stood for? Hold on. Drugs. Abuse. Resistance. Resistance. E. What is the E?

Energy. Drug abuse. Erection. Resistance. School goes with. Education. Ah, thank you. Yes. So obvious. So yeah, it is pretty much drug abuse resistant education. A lot of people mix that up with drug alcohol resistant education, which I never, I never mixed that up. I've never mixed it up either. I've always thought it was drug abuse, not drug alcohol. Yeah, me too.

Because Dara was always there talking about, don't do drugs. They never said nothing about don't do alcohol. Don't drink alcohol. Yeah, and then that red dog came. Red dog? Ours was a lion. Ours was a brown, like, hound dog. McRuff? Oh, yeah.

Or McGruff. Take a bite out of crime. Yeah. Yeah. Okay. Yeah. I don't know why I was envisioning him as a red dog. Oh, shit. There was a lion. Yeah. Like their main thing was a lion. That's. Really? I do not remember that at all. Really? I mean. Ours was always that dog with a jacket. Yeah. They're getting ready to show us his wiener.

Supposed to be a detective or something. Anyways. Hold up. I need to see this dog y'all are talking. Whoa. Okay. Now that looks familiar. Dude, I've never seen that lion. But you see the lion now. Yeah, I see it now, but I've never seen that before. Maybe it depends on where you're at. I went to school in the South. So for a lot of this time of like dare stuff. But yeah, I feel like I remember very much this lion. Aaron was in Texas. He didn't see it in Texas.

I'm not going to say, but I can't call Virginia the South, even though it's below the line. It's, it's, we're fucking in the middle. All my life, I do not remember that line at all. Don't remember it at all. I don't know where it's from. Hmm. Well, that's weird. Send us an email. Tell us if you remember the lion or the dog, or if you remember them both and we're just fucking stupid. We're open to that. Y'all are fucking stupid. Oh yeah, we probably are. Yeah, we know. Is there, do you have any others like that, Dan?

See, we have, uh, okay. Something similar. What does, I mean, we've talked about this group. I'm pretty sure. Oh yeah. What does the D a stand for? Drug enforcement agency. Yep. Wrong. What? It is drug enforcement administration. Why? Why change that? Potatoes, potatoes, potatoes, potatoes. It's still an a tomatoes, tomatoes, Demi Lovato. Yeah.

Well, that's a pretty good one, I guess. Yeah. Not really. It sucked, Dana. It sucks. Way to bring some suckiness to it. I know. I'm just kidding. All right, Ana, you got some Pokemon ones down here, I think. You want to roll into those? Some Pokemon Mandela effects? I played Pokemon like it was going out of style before it was. I loved that card game. So I'm going to talk about the Pokemon Blue and Red release on Game Boy. Okay.

So if you played Pokemon, you know that each Pokemon has its own type. And each type has a weakness and a strength. So if you're playing a fire Pokemon and your enemy puts a water Pokemon on, you know it's going to do more damage. Right. So we're going to talk about the psychic type Pokemon. Do you guys remember what a psychic Pokemon was weak against?

Would it be other psychic Pokemons or the bug type Pokemon? Bug. Dark. That's afterwards. Oh, never mind. I don't know. I didn't play that much Pokemon. I think it was bug. It is bug. My memory is bug as well because I remember thinking this is a really weird type to beat a psychic Pokemon, but okay. Yeah. But a lot of people remember that psychic beats psychic.

And Aaron, you know how you just mentioned the dark class? Well, that came after the first two. And they added it so that psychics, supposedly, psychics had an enemy. Why would they fix a problem that never existed if bugs were always the weak point for psychics?

But then the next releases are like, oh, shit, we need to do something better than Psychic on Psychic. And then made the Dark, who are Psychic's weakness. Isn't that interesting? I guess because people were complaining about how the fuck is a bug going to beat a ghost? Exactly. I never got that either. But I'm glad that you thought the same thing, Dan, because I was like, this is something I do remember. Now, Anna, what is this about Pikachu's tail?

Man, okay. So when you think of Pikachu and his iconic image, does he or does he not have a black mark on the tip of his tail? He does because he has a black tip on his ears, right? Correct. He does have the tips on his ears, but he doesn't have it on his tail. Doesn't he have like a... I know near the base of his tail to the middle, wasn't there like a black mark?

Mark there. It's a brown mark, but yeah. The tip of his tail, I don't know why, but I'm remembering it as brown. It's got no color besides his yellow. Really? Yeah. See, that's weird because I... I can remember it being there. Yeah, I do too. It's just not. It's so weird. It looks naked to me when I see it. I know. So that was weird. You know why we probably remember it as having like a black tip? Hmm.

Probably because when we played it, it was the very first Pikachu. They have a thick black line at the tip of his tail in the very first Pokemon game with him in it. That still doesn't look right. I clearly remember a lot of black on his tail, like a clear black tail with the black ears. Yeah, I remember a big black box on the tip of his tail.

Man, it's just so weird to me. Yeah. I always thought it was brown for some reason. Well. Yeah, that's how I remember it. Oh, hold on. Here's a stuffed toy. Oh, I love when you find toys because those are just as they are. Yeah. Someone could have made this toy themselves, but. Very odd indeed. Okay, so this one I know we talked in the group chat about with Hans.

Now, you guys remember the Pokemon that was all rocks, kind of reminded of, like, I had a caterpillar is not a word because that's not the right word. It's just like a rock snake. Do you remember the Pokemon called Onyx? That was a rock creature. Yes. Awesome. Okay. Tell me, how do you spell his name? O-N-Y-X. Yep. Onyx. Yeah, that's what I thought, too.

In this reality, they spell it O-N-I-X. That's not right. It's not right at all. They're wrong. Don't you mess with our Pokemon. For real. I specifically remember...

That there was a Y because I thought to myself at the time how I'd never really seen names with a Y in it before. And that's really cool. And I had this whole moment in my life where I remember this. I don't have this on the document, but I just remembered it. Did you guys look about anything about the missing Pokemon? Mew? So there's people who remember a Pokemon that never existed? No. Uh-uh. Missing Pokemon?

Team Rocket Strikes Again. I think that they might attract it back to people back in Japan when it was originally released. They had a...

A version that wasn't, didn't have all of the, the whole world didn't get to see it. And so some people remember this version in the original release when they redid it, they got rid of this Pokemon. But this guy drew a picture and could remember exactly what it looked like. It kind of gave me a vibe of, um, Poliwhirl. Like where he's the spiral guy with arms. The frog-like Pokemon? Hmm? The frog-like Pokemon? Yes.

Pokey in 2010 on the 4chan website some user drew his favorite Pokemon named Tentacool. Users quickly realized that this Pokemon did not exist and they promptly started to mock him. There was a Tentacool I remember that specifically that name is I can imagine him right now hold up you're going to tell me that he doesn't exist.

They said, fast forward to 2018 and Pokemon Gold and Silver beta demo is released to the public with tons of unusual stuff like sprites, items, and such. And the internet surprised an extremely similar yet never released Pokemon to the tentacle drawing was there. Okay, this is the Pokemon that I was just talking about, but my tentacle in my mind is not this.

I feel like he was purple or something and he had actual, like he had tentacles and maybe only two or three. Hold up. Cause you have a tentacle. Then you have tentacle rule, I think. Okay. Then that's, that must be what I'm thinking of. Yep. Yeah. He was a Pokemon that this guy got, like you said, he got a lot of shit for because he's like, I specifically remember this Pokemon. He drew it out and everything. And everyone was like, this never has existed ever.

And there he is all over now. There's a Pokemon card thing with him on it. All right. So those are some Pokemon Mandela effects. Do we want to move on to some September 11th Mandela effects? The first one I think I'll discuss is the September 11th Twin Tower attacks. Do you guys remember it happening in 1999 or 2001?

2001. I gotta say 2001. God damn it. I'm the only one who remembers it in 1999. Like, I clearly remember September 11th, 1999 and it happening because shortly after that we had the Y2K was going on around the same time and we had the New Year's, all that good stuff. So, I don't know. Even to this day, I still have to be like, no, it was in 2001, not 1999. So, yeah, that's one thing.

Do you have any other? I know you found something that you messaged me yesterday about the Twin Towers. Oh, yeah. Yeah, I found two really interesting things about the Twin Towers and that day in general and all that. Okay, when you think of the iconic look of the Twin Towers standing there, do you see anything in front of it? Like a Marriott Hotel, for instance? A hotel, yes. I remember a hotel being in front of it.

I don't remember at all. I don't remember a hotel in front of it either. But I've linked two pictures that show that there was what seems very out of place, a very big Marriott hotel. And when you look at the when they show where all the buildings were when everything got destroyed, they have that building marked. So it was it's always been there. But it looks so weird to see a picture with it in front.

And maybe I just never noticed it because I don't stare at the Twin Towers all the time. But it just seemed weird to me. Yeah, because I mean, when you look at the Twin Towers, you don't really look at the base of it. You're looking at how tall they are. So we're probably looking up. So unless you actually go there or looking around, I guess you probably wouldn't notice it. Okay. This one really fucked with me because I had never heard of this until I started researching 9-11 last month.

So on September 11th of 2001, there was a Category 3 hurricane coming directly to New York. It had been on a five-day course heading directly to New York. And instead, and it was Hurricane Erin, spelled E-R-I-N. And on the day of, it took an unexpected, unprecedented flight.

150 degree turn off course and never affected any land masses. This thing was so strong. It was as big as Hurricane Katrina and as strong as Hurricane Sandy. Yet supposedly some low force winds, low pressure winds,

came off of the U.S. and was enough to push this giant hurricane off course. It's like, you know what? New York's going to have a pretty fucked up day today. Let's not give it a hurricane and flood out the state as well. I mean, I have linked here the path that

that the hurricane had taken, this is documented, this legit was happening. And showing how big of a hurricane this was. And in the satellite image that I linked, you can see they zoomed in, NASA zoomed in, and you could see the Twin Towers on fire. Well, like smoke, it's black and white, but... This blew my mind. That day was one of the most beautiful, clear days.

Yet they were expected to be hit with a hurricane and nobody talks about it. Not one person. I've never ever heard someone say, well, it could have been a more fucked up day had Hurricane Aaron come along. Damn right. But look at that path. It's so direct. It's going, going, going, going. And I linked a video that shows everything changing too. I just watched that video. And it's weird because right when it takes... You're watching this video of the... What is it? The weather...

Doppler radar? Yeah, the weather Doppler. And you see it coming up, up, up, up, up in the hurricane building, building, building. And it's about to hit right where New York is at. And then all of a sudden it glitches very fast. The Doppler does. And all of a sudden the hurricane turns and goes opposite way. And I was actually able to freeze frame it and get a screenshot of the glitch. Ooh. Yeah, I just added it on the next page down below. Ooh.

I mean, we could probably do like a little mini episode on this, but would that be evidence of harp or something like that? Some manipulation of weather? Okay, I'll tell you a quick theory I had on this. I wanted to see where this started. I didn't find out where it started. But what if this was a threat?

That if you don't blow up the Twin Towers, if you don't follow through with whatever things that we need from you... But, like, say somehow Saddam people or Bin Laden people had access to the people who control HAARP or CERN. And they were like, okay, y'all need to blow up the Twin Towers in regards to protecting Bin Laden, but we didn't want to do that. And so then...

They're like, okay, we're going to throw a hurricane your way and you're going to do what we say. And if you don't follow through with it, this is going to hit your states. And so right before it all happens, they turn the hurricane off course because they followed through with their, like what better way to get pressure on a country than to throw a natural disaster at it. That's not going to look like an attack from another country.

But you have control over it, so you just redirect it into, I mean, there's tons of other land masses for it that it should have hit. And it didn't. It just bypassed everything else. Is that not weird? That's weird. Okay. Since we're going to throw in a theory about it, I'm going to throw in mine. Ooh, I like it. Do it. Just because it's interesting. So say this big hurricane was coming. The government's planning on destroying the towers.

If this hurricane came close enough, all flights would have been canceled. Then they couldn't blow it up. The planes wouldn't have crashed. So they did have HAARP. They manipulated to make it turn away from land so this plan can keep going. Ooh, I like that, Dan. I like that a lot. Because, I mean, you look at the video, it glitches and all of a sudden it just turns. So if HAARP is real...

I wasn't here for that episode in season one, so I don't know much about it. But, I mean, something's fishy with that. Just saying. I agree. But that's a good one, Anna.

Did not know about that hurricane at all. Yeah, I didn't know about it either. It seems like something that we would have known about. With it being as big as Hurricane Katrina, which we know the devastation that that had, and as strong as Hurricane Sandy, that thing would have decimated New York. It would not be the same today. I would guarantee it. Yeah. I mean, this is fucked up. Either way, something happened.

We'll have to dig deeper into it and see what rabbit holes that could lead down. Yeah, because none of that... I didn't see any of that one search in the 9-11 stuff. Nobody's seen anything about a hurricane. Nope. Very odd. All right. Who found this next one? I've never seen this before in my life. Dude, me neither!

Okay, blew my mind. I've never, ever, ever heard of this. I've heard of people tattooing their eyeballs. That's quote-unquote normal. But have you ever heard of somebody piercing their eyeball? No. I didn't even know you could do such a thing. Me neither. But apparently, since 2003, this has been a thing. And the video I watched that introduced me to this...

had a friend that is a tattoo artist and works in a piercing shop and not one of them in that place had ever heard of this. And when you look at it, it's under the layer of the eye, like the first layer of skin. Like how did it get under there? How did you not rip it? Oh my, it just, it hurts to look at, but what if these are time travelers? I have a lot of theories that today

And this is something in the future. Some sort of device that we use for identification or being able to see multi-shit and they make it into something cute, like a star or a heart. And is your eye starting to hurt thinking about it?

Yes, Jesus Christ. I'm over here like squirming because I hate anything to do with my eyes. And no, just thinking of this. Well, those PlayStation marks, that's a tattoo. But the other two are piercings. I would always feel like there's something in my eye. Yeah. How do you do that and not hit something important?

I don't know if that person that has it covered has had it for so long that somehow, I don't know how the eyes work, but the membrane covered it. Because the other one doesn't look as under the skin. But I did see more than one with it under the skin. There was skull and crossbones that were there. Nope. Yeah, I could never do that. Nope.

Have any of you guys heard of this? I need to know. Yeah, if you've heard of eyeball piercings or if you have one, shoot us an email. Oh my God, if you have one, when did you learn about them? All right, let's continue on. Dan, do you want to tell us about the Monopoly Man? Okay. Do y'all remember the Monopoly Man having a monocle? Hell yeah. Yes. Yes. Yeah. Because he always had like the cane, the monocle, and then the top hat, right? Mm-hmm.

Well, he does not have a monocle. A lot of people remember him having one. Even in Ace Ventura, Pet Detective, Jim Carrey puts on a monocle and says, you may not pass go. So we all remember it, but he's never had a monocle. I wonder if we're getting them confused with the planer's peanut guy who had a monocle on top hat. You know, I would say that too, but also in Ace Ventura, he meets a guy.

who looks like the Monopoly guy. And he has a monocle, and he says something like, Mr. Monopoly over here, and he ends up smacking the dude. Yeah. I remember that part. And then that girl has that fox or whatever, and he takes it, and he puts her, he puts him on his shoulders and dances around. Oh, yeah. Such a good series. It is. That's crazy. All right, Anna, what do you have for us?

Alright, well, I know that most of you have seen the dogs playing poker painting. They're all around a poker table. You got some of them cheating, passing cards here and there. Do you remember any of the dogs wearing a hat? Yes, a transparent, green, almost like a visor hat.

Type hat. Yeah. Yeah. The old school dealer hat. Yes, exactly. Yeah. Because my grandma had this painting up in her house. Does she still have it? I don't know. She's the she's the one who lives down in Texas. I'd have to call and see. You should do that.

Because in this reality, there is no transparent green hat on the dog. It doesn't exist in any of them. But I also remember that hat very distinctly.

So it was like to own one of the dogs to the right. When you look at the painting, it'd be on the right side. One of the dogs on the right. It was definitely one facing us more too. So like it, it wasn't in this picture that I linked specifically, it wasn't a dog like the one on the right. It was like the dude, one of the ones in front of us, middle or left facing

But the hat was on him. It really just gets you thinking, like, why is it that I remember it so differently? Why do we all remember this hat? Something as simple as a green hat on a dog. And we all misremember it. Freaking CERN, man. Well, all right. So I have a question for you guys and girl. Okay. How many people were in the car when JFK got shot? Four.

Because you got the wife, JFK, then like a guard in the front seat, and then a driver, right? That's what I thought. Nope, there's six. So if you look at images of JFK now, there is six people in the car. The vehicle has been stretched to him and his wife in the back, two Secret Service guys in front of them, and then in front of those Secret Service guys is the driver and some other individual. That's so wrong. Hmm.

What? My question is, if there was a Secret Service agents there, right in front of them, why didn't they cover him whenever he was getting shot? Isn't that what they're supposed to do is like jump in front of the like, they're like sacrifice their own life for him or something? I could have swore that. Well, yeah, that is what they're supposed to do. But did they have time? Like, was it one shot kill?

Alright, so yeah, we clearly remember it different. Weird, you know. Yeah. Okay, real quick. Does Mona Lisa in the painting have a smirk or a frown?

I didn't know she was making any face. Yeah, I don't remember her having a face at all, or making any expressions at all. But apparently now she has a smirk, which... Looks wrong. Is odd. Because there's always been a lot of speculation around that painting, right? Like they didn't know who it was. And that some people had thought that Da Vinci actually painted himself as a woman. Didn't she have like messed up teeth or something?

I don't know. I mean, when I grew up, I remember it being a almost expressionless face, and nobody knew who she was. Da Vinci, like I said, people assumed that he just painted himself in a feminine form. But that's different now, isn't it, Aaron? Yeah, she's smirking. She's got a smirk on her. Paint me like one of your French girls. And...

On top of that, they now know who she is, or they're nearly certain they know, and they've always known. They call this painting also La Giocondo, and that's because this is the wife, supposedly, of Francesco del Giocondo. Do you guys remember Mona Lisa having a known identity? No. Uh-oh. Me neither. Hmm. Weird. Mm-hmm.

Do you remember if in the Fruit of the Loom logo, are there fruit just hanging out together or is there a cornucopia involved? I believe it was a cornucopia. Cornucopia. Yeah. Yeah. I remember the cornucopia as well. It doesn't exist. Never has in all of its history. Yet the image that we put on the document, it looks so right to see the cornucopia with it.

Yeah. It does. Well, with that reference to Fruit of the Loom, let's move into food, Mandela FX. Food. Dan, what's the first one you got for us? Jif peanut butter. Or is it Jiffy peanut butter? Jiffy. Jiffy. Jiffy. Jiffy. I always remember it as Jiffy peanut butter as well. But it is Jiff peanut butter. Ah, Jesus. Mandela at it again. Yeah. How dare they do that to our peanut butter? Yeah. All right. Uh...

Fruit Loops. Fruit Loops. Okay, is it Fruit, F-R-U-I-T? Now we're talking about cereal here. Fruit Loops, F-R-U-I-T, or F-R-O-O-T. Which one? The double O's so it matches the Loops.

Yeah, I always thought it was the double O. I did as well, until I was corrected by Mandela himself. It is fruit, F-R-U-I-T, loops, and it does not look right on the cereal box. That is the reality we live in now. How dare they spell it right. Yeah, how dare them. Alright, did you find these little smokies, Anna? This freaked me out. I know, me too, dude. Well, first off, I'm going to talk about Hillshire Farm.

Do you remember it being Hillshire Farms with an S or Hillshire Farm? Farms, Hillshire Farms, because there's multiple plural. Yeah, farms. Me too. It's now Hillshire Farm. And they make those cute little smokies that you make at big group gatherings. Now, when you write little smokies out...

Do you spell little for, like, if you think of Lil Smokey's and you see this on a package, is it spelt L-I-T apostrophe L or L-I-L Lil or Little? We know how to spell Little. I think we got that one down. Proper way to spell it. L-I-T-T-L-E. Right? Lil. Lil. L-I-L. Smokey's. Lil Smokey's. Lil Smokey's. The rapper. Yeah. Yeah.

Well, apparently it's always been little, L-I-T apostrophe L. And I think there's a picture of it with the Hillshire Farm with no S and then little spelt like that. And it looks so weird and wrong. It does look weird and wrong. It looks so wrong. Lit. That's some lit smokies. That's lit. Oh, goodness.

So yeah, that was an interesting find. Make some pick of blankets now. Let's go. Oh, let's do it. Okay, here's a quick one. Kid cats. Is there a hyphen between the kit and the cat or no? No hyphen. No hyphen. I remember a hyphen. You guys are right. In this reality, there is no hyphen.

But I have Kit Kats in my fridge, and every time I go to grab one, I get this weird feeling because I do not see the hyphen in it. You're from the wrong reality. Go back. Go back to your own reality. Oh, I know I'm not from this one. Go back, you alien. God, y'all are finally picking up on that. All right, I got one for y'all. It's not even on the list. You ready? Uh-oh. Oh, yeah. How do you spell Chick-fil-A? C-H-I-C-K-F-I-L-A. Okay.

I spell it differently than you, Aaron. In my mind, there is no K in chick. It's just a C hyphen F I L hyphen A. I think hyphen A. The chick part is where I'm off on yours. Aaron is right. Another evidence I'm in the wrong one. Get out of my reality. I don't ever remember there being a K on the end of it either, though, because I thought it was the way they spelt like filet. They already shortened that. So I was just like C H I C as well for chick filet.

But no, it's chick is spelled correctly. So I was just like, okay, that got me. So now I'm from the wrong reality. Both you get out of my reality. It's my Chick-fil-A, motherfuckers.

All right. You go sit in that long ass line, even though you only wait two minutes. I mean, they're the God dang. Thank you for your service. Is it? Oh, wait, what do they say? My pleasure. Oh, yeah, man. My pleasure. Good Lord. I did not eat there for a long time because they are until recently. And I should actually research to make sure they actually stop doing this. But.

They've always donated money to gay conversion camps and supporting against gay people. And so I've always made a point, even though when I was in high school, this is how posh my high school was, on Fridays we'd have cool things like Pizza Hut or Chick-fil-A and I would eat it and I'm like, God damn, is this chicken sandwich so good? And I'd drive past there and I'm like, I can't support a company that's like this. And then recently, and

In the last year, supposedly they have stopped donating money to supporting gay conversion camps. So I have given in and I've gone there and I just am always so blown away by their customer service. And I love the memes where it's like, you forgot your ketchup and the Chick-fil-A person's like coming out. They're like, excuse me, sir. Yeah, they chase after you like, sir, I heard you say you're welcome. I just want to tell you.

My pleasure. And then he just like turns around, just starts walking back. Now, I can say that the other day I had a Popeye's chicken sandwich far superior than Chick-fil-A's. Chick-fil-A is lagging behind on their chicken sandwich because they wrap it in a foil type thing and it gets the bread all soggy. I don't like soggy bread. This is true. What Popeye do you go to? Because the one I am in here, they wrap them just like Chick-fil-A. Not the one here. Not the one up here in Maine.

But I tell you, I would choose a Chick-fil-A chicken over Popeye's anytime. How dare you? There's so much more flavor. I usually get their deluxe because I like that lettuce, tomato, and cheese, bitch. All right. So let's move on to the next one. Since it's an Asian one, I guess I will cover it. Okay. Yeah, I'll cover it. So do you know that version of the ramen that's in a cup? What do you call that? Cup-o-noodles. Cup-o-noodles.

Hell yeah, cup of noodles. You are. You are. You both are. Cup noodle. And by the way, if you're a first time listener, Dan is Asian. So just to clarify that. And the way I just said cup noodle. That's how my mom says. Exactly. Exactly. Just wanted to clarify that. But yes, I always cup of noodles. You know? Yeah. I never said it any other way.

It's weird. I've always thought it was cup of noodles, so it's cup of noodles. Yeah, but- No, it's just cup noodles. Oh, God. What reality are we living in? So wrong. Yeah. So, I like to buy the Laughing Cow cheese, put it on crackers, or spread it on random shit. Do you guys eat that at all? Yes. I don't really know, but I see it all the time.

Okay. Do you recall if she has the cowl on the logo? Does she have anything in her nose or on her ears? I remember her specifically having a gold, like, hoop in her nose. I remember the nose ring. Yeah. Anything in her ears? No. That's exactly my memory as well. She's always had a gold hoop. Nothing in her ears. Well, now she does not have a hoop.

And she has earrings. But they're not just regular earrings. They are little laughing cow cheese earrings. Has this always been this way or is it? Yeah, it's always been this way. She's never had a nose ring. That's wrong. They need to get out of our reality. Yeah, it looks awkward as hell. Why would a cow have earrings over a nose ring? I don't know. I don't either.

But that one messed with me for a minute. Yeah. Not as much as this next one, though. Yeah, this next one messed with me a little bit, too. So, you know the iconic Pillsbury Doughboy? You know, he wears a scarf around his neck. What color is that scarf? Is it red, white, or blue? Isn't it blue? I remembered it as blue. Oh, yeah, me too. Because he's got blue eyes. Yeah, well... There's like a little touch of blue. It is white.

Lies. Lies, I tell you. Weird. All right. So that's the food section. Now we're going to move into the movie and TV show related Mandela effects section. Ana, do you want to start us off with this one? This one still just gets to me. I cannot believe it's not real. So this one will blow your mind. Even if you didn't watch the show, you know this line. So in I Love Lucy.

Ricky Ricardo had some famous sayings that he would say, and we still use them today. Like, for instance, Lucy, you got some explaining to do. Do y'all remember him saying that?

No, I've never watched that show. I've never watched I Love Lucy. Sorry. You guys, this is... Did we just ruin this? What? No, because everyone else in the world is going to get it because you guys are weirdos and don't. So Lucy always was up to shenanigans and Ricky Ricardo would come home and then find out what she'd been doing that day and something looked off and he would say, not in every episode, but he would say,

Lucy, you got some explaining to do. And then she would usually do something like after every time that never happened. Not once has that ever happened. He's like use variations of this. Like never, ever, ever was it those words. And there is so much residue about that saying there shows all the time.

Lucy, you got some splainin' to do. I linked two different videos that show a bunch of different things using it. Don't you just love those dried mint flakes someone sold them to me off the street? I don't think these are mint flakes. I'm flyin'. Lucy, you got some splainin' to do. Hello!

You got some 'splaining to do. Even though that's not the way everybody says "explaining", I respect our differences and you're right to say it in the way you want. Lucy, you got some 'splaining to do. I'm gonna... I'm just gonna go. No, you're not. Because if you don't get this procedure, you're going to die. Sapa?

You got some splaining to do. You got some splaining to do. Okay, so I'm sure you guys get it. Like, everybody remembers that. This is something that is... There must have been a big shift over where most people besides you guys, because you apparently didn't even watch any of it, but I would assume that 80% of the world knows this line. The video that we just watched mashes a bunch together.

And if you go and look it up, you'll find videos of other people showing the Mandela effect of how it doesn't exist. Some people did think that the Lucy, I'm home thing was a Mandela, but it's not. He actually does say that. Not like you guys would know even that because you didn't watch it, but he would come home and say, Lucy, I'm home. I mean, I've seen commercials and stuff and things say that, that line. That happened for realsies. But the you got some splaining to do is not...

That doesn't exist here. Huh. That's weird that all those other TV shows reference it like it happened. And there's so much more to it that's just like a classic. But apparently we all misremember something that never happened. Yeah. I know we got a lot more movie ones. Oh, we got a lot more. Do you guys remember the famous children television show Smurfs?

Yeah. Did the Smurfs have tails? Yes. Yeah, like a little puff, like a small little tail, like more of a bunny tail. They always had it covered. Okay. I never remember that, but I always remember them as not having tails. But you're right, they do have tails. So I guess I gotta get out of y'all's reality. Yeah, get out. We don't like you here. Sorry.

Alright, next thing I wanted to talk about was Lord of the Rings, okay? Awesome movie, you know. Great movies. Gandalf is a wizard inside there, and there's a famous phrase that he says during a very dramatic moment, and everybody says it as, run, you fools! Except it's no longer that anymore. It's fly, you fools. I haven't seen Lord of the Rings. Oh my god. He had to have said run, because...

They were running out of a fucking, like, mine. Yeah. Well, not anymore, Dan. Not anymore. If anyone was flying, it was Gandalf when he was falling down. What about Curious George? Does he have a tail or no? No. No. I remember him as having a tail. But, yes, you're right. He doesn't have a tail. Hmm. All right. What else do y'all have? I mean, you figure a monkey would have a tail, so. But I don't remember seeing him have one. Yeah.

Agree, I don't either. All right. The movie Risky Business, Tom Cruise, his famous dance scene, was he wearing Ray-Bans? Yes. Yeah. Well, many people, especially girls, dress up as him for Halloween and they wear the Ray-Bans because he wore Ray-Bans. However, he doesn't actually wear them in the movie anymore. So it's kind of weird. That is so weird. Yeah, because even like in, was it, Grown Ups 2? Yeah.

Grown Ups 2, the son, he dresses up as Tom Cruise from Risky Business, and I'm pretty sure he's wearing Ray-Bans. Do you think that they do that because he wears it in the movie in general, but he doesn't use them in the scene when he slides across the floor in his socks and underwear? I always thought he... Did he slide across and take off his glasses then? See, that's how everyone does it. That's how the imitation, I think, is. They come across and...

But I don't... Doesn't the cover have him with sunglasses? It does, yeah. So maybe they're combining those two things. But I don't know. You're right though. Right now, in this reality, he does not have them when he slides across. Oh, in The Wizard of Oz, did the Scarecrow have a gun? No. Why would the Scarecrow have a gun? My memory's tainted on this one.

I don't know which is which, but I do now I know he's had a gun. So I don't remember if I remembered that before. I don't feel like I did, but I'm calling taint on this. I never like seen him have a gun. I've never seen it. So now he has a gun. Yes. So now he actually has a gun. Wow. That messes me up. Okay. What about this in the TV show? Lone Ranger, right? It's kind of older. It ran from 1949 to 57. Yeah.

In the TV show, he did a famous cry to his horse, Silver. What was his famous cry that he would say? The Lone Ranger. Hi-ho, Silver. What was it? Hi-ho, Silver. Hi-ho, Silver. Yeah. Hi-ho, Silver. That's not it. Away. What? Hi-yo, Silver. Hi-yo, Silver. No. Yeah. Not. That's.

That's not right. Yeah. Almost as bad as Mirror, Mirror on the Wall. Y'all heard of that one? That one, yeah. I'm not accepting this one, but you go ahead and tell it. Yeah, so Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs in the movie, you know, that iconic line, Mirror, Mirror on the Wall, who's the fairest of them all? It's not Mirror, Mirror anymore. It's Magic Mirror on the Wall. Nope. So wrong. That is wrong. Not taking it. Even their merchandise that they sell...

They put Mirror Mirror on the wall. So Disney themselves are getting it wrong. Another Disney one that I found. Do you remember? You guys don't. This is for the listeners because I know your asses didn't watch Disney. Jesus. So in the old classics, you throw in your VHS and you're starting to watch some Disney. You see the iconic Disney castle come out and Tinkerbell flies out.

And she writes the word Disney with her wand and taps the eye and it creates Disney. And that is... God, I can't believe you actually know this one. I remember that. I remember. I watched Toy Story and all those, man. Dude. Aladdin was my shit. I had that thing in the VCR the whole time. I cried during The Lion King. Oh, who doesn't? You're not human if you don't cry. So that doesn't happen. Tinkerbell does not do that. And there are some...

that are similar to but anyone who remembers the original will tell you that that's not the one that we remember as kids but yeah she's never done never done that makes me feel like my whole childhood's a lie yeah no kidding i can't believe it either because i specifically remember i i sit there and as you did it i drew it out and you tapped the eye yeah i remember it oh man

Alright, well then how about I throw one at you that... I like these ones that mess with my mind. One of my favorite movies, and probably unknowingly was one of the first movies that helped me start thinking about the world in a different way. The Matrix. That... I'm gonna actually rewatch it this week because I need to refresh on it, but...

There is an iconic moment where they are, they being Morpheus, is talking to Neo and teaching him about the different kind of, letting him choose between what type of reality he's going to want to live in. And there is a very famous line that we all remember from that moment. Do you remember what it is? Without me saying it. Not off the top of my head.

Okay. Hold on. Hold on. Is it like he's doing the red pill, blue pill thing? Well, it's before that. I think it's before that. Well, I can't reference. When he's walking around with Keanu behind the couch. I have to rewatch it to be able to. It doesn't exist anymore, so I can't even tell you when it happened. What if I told you everything you thought was real was a lie or something similar to that, right? Something like that.

Yeah, it's pretty much the way I remember it was, what if I told you everything you knew was a lie? Okay. But yours is actually sounding much better. Everything you thought you knew was a lie. Okay. Anyways, that whole sequence of sentences right there never happened.

And I can hear Morpheus in my mind saying it to Neo. Because then, yeah, he's like, because he tells them after he says that, he tells them you have, you felt your entire life like you've had a splinter in your mind.

And you have something that you feel has always been there and you can't explain it. Yeah. That's what he says. And to start off that sentence, he says, what if I told you everything you know was a lie? He does say that. Or everything you thought you knew was a lie. Is that something that they took out?

because they didn't... The matrix already makes you start thinking about simulation theory and very out there thinking for some people. But what if something as simple as that line

That line will make you really think, especially as people today. If I went back and listened to that, I would be like, yeah, everything I did know was a lie. What am I living in? I'm just a pawn in the bigger people's game. It's a question that really makes the masses think.

And we aren't supposed to think according to my belief of what, like, we're supposed to stay in this box so the people of power control us to do what they need for their agenda. When we start opening our mind and expanding to the deeper parts of what, not just this reality, but multiverses, higher realms, then we become more powerful than the people controlling us. And that's why we stay in our little boxes.

Well, I don't. I fucking break free. I've got to break free. Even in the memes of Morpheus, he says, what if I told you? In the memes. And it even says, there's something there. What if I told you I never said, what if I told you? Everybody remembers it because it was, that's just as an, of an important scene as him putting out those pills in his hands and giving him the option of the red pill, blue pill.

And telling them what it means. Goddamn you, time travelers. Red Pill Bill Plu is like... Oh, I got some stuff when we get to animals that made me laugh. I think someone's playing a prank on us. Okay. You remember in the film Silence of the Lambs when Clarice walks down to meet Hannibal Lecter for the first time? The iconic line that he says is...

Hello, Clarice. Yeah, that's what I thought he said too, but that never happened. He says, good morning, and also good evening, Clarice, but never says, hello, Clarice. That's, I could hear him saying those lines just as I hear Morpheus saying his. I'm right there with ya. Right there with ya. Why? What? That's... What about, um, you have one from the Hunger Games, right?

Oh my god, yes, that one. Oh my god, okay. Legit, I cried when I read this one because it was something inside of me that was like, holy shit, you are on a different plane. It was like uncontrollable. I just started crying because I was shocked. Okay, so, Hunger Games, the original. I have never read the books. I have only got the movie as a reference for this, but they are all

standing on their platforms getting ready for the games to start and right before the game starts does anything happen one of the kids dies how so i i honestly i remember something dramatic but i can't tell you exactly what i mean i remember katniss everdeen or whatever her name is like being shocked maybe like dipping down but i don't that's all i remember

So I recently saw this. And what I remember is that right before the game start, this kid jumps off his platform and goes to start running and he blows up. And I remember when that happened because my brain said, this is foreshadowing to let us, the watchers, know that there are mines in this field. And that's all, like, that was my thought on it.

And then Katniss, I remember her, like, she sees it about to happen and she's like, no, no! Like, she tries to stop him from doing it in that moment. It all happens so fast. He blows up. And then that's how they start everything. And that never happened.

It felt so empty watching the scene and the kid does not get blown up. And that sounds really bad. That does sound bad. You knew that there was a piece missing when that happened. And I don't know. I cannot remember if I saw that in theaters and maybe the theater release had that. And when they released it on DVD, they thought it was too much for a family movie and they cut it.

But there's a ton of people who remember that happening. And some people will say, well, the book had the blow up and vice versa. But I don't have a memory of the book. I only have a memory from the movie. So I'm not tainted with that information. But I'm just saying this one really threw me off. I did not feel right after I learned this. Yeah. That's how I feel about some of these other ones. Yeah. Or some of the ones that we already talked about.

But we still got a whole bunch more. Dan, you want to tell us about Forrest Gump's famous line? That one messes me up. So Forrest Gump's famous line is, Life is like a box of chocolates. Or was it, Life was like a box of chocolates? Life is like or life was like? Life is like a box of chocolates. Yeah, life is like or life was like? Life is like a box of chocolates. Yeah. You never know what you're going to get. That's what I say.

It was, life was like a box of chocolate. Oh my God. I always thought it was life is like a box of chocolate. That's wrong. I believe life is like a box of chocolate, is what he would say. How he said it. That is how he said it. Well, it's not wrong. To be said is or was. Life is like a box of chocolate. No, life is like a box of chocolates. All right. We've got a couple more and then we're going to move into music related Mandela effects.

So Darth Vader says to Luke Skywalker in Star Wars, does he say, Luke, I am your father? Or no, I am your father. Luke. Luke. You see it on Tommy Boy. It's all over. Yeah. Even my dad used to call me and say, Aaron, I am your father. You know, it's like iconic, you know? However...

Darth Vader never said that. He said, no, I am your father. Doesn't seem right. Really messed me up when I found out about that one. Yeah, that's not right. Yeah, and apparently C-3PO now has a silver leg and has always had a silver leg. And it's like, when the hell did he have a silver leg? I don't ever remember him having a silver leg. I remember being little growing up and wanting to...

be for Halloween C-3PO and never thought to myself, oh, I need to get a silver leg. No, it was like, I need to become fully gold and not, hey, I need to have at least one little silver leg. No, it's not the case. So I'm super nerd and I have a pair of shoes that are C-3PO and R2-D2. Unfortunately, though they show him on them, I know this isn't great, it doesn't show his leg.

But these are some bomb ass shoes. Those look badass. I've had these for the longest time. Probably need to clean them. I like that. Hashtag on as a nerd. It's okay. Only thing I can think of is that it's just with the lighting with C-3PO. Don't pull that shit on me, Dan. Nope. You fucking time traveler. No, I believe they both were gold. But like you see in some of the movie scenes, it's hard to tell the difference.

Like, they both look gold, but then you have to, like, look really fucking close. You probably weren't thinking about that at the time when you're watching it. You're engulfed in the storyline. And maybe when you've seen it six times and you're like, has C-3PO's leg always been silver? I don't know. I'll bust out one from Iowa from you. It's like that image right there. You look at it, you can't really tell. It's true. That's a good point. And he was built, right? I mean, like, Anakin made him.

So it would make sense that he wouldn't be all the same parts. Get out of here with that shit. Well, let's go to the movie Field of Dreams. It was done in Iowa. Kevin Costner starred in it. And in it, there's a baseball field that people that have passed on, famous players, come and play at. And one of his famous lines in it is one of these two options.

If you build it, they will come. Or if you build it, he will come. They will come. They. Definitely they. Me too. Yeah, it's the same. It's not. It's he now. If you build it, he will come. That doesn't make sense. No. Yeah, so that was one that, again, they're lying to us, you guys. Just a bunch of bold-faced lies. All right. Last movie one. Y'all ready?

The 1969 animated movie Frosty the Snowman. Did y'all see that? Watch that at all when y'all were younger? It's been a long time. All right. I haven't seen it in a long time. But you see Frosty with all these items on except which one? You have the broom, the old silk hat, red scarf, and corncob pipe. I don't remember a broom. I don't remember the broom. I don't remember the broom either. But it was the red scarf he never had.

I remember him with a red scarf. Frosty always wears a scarf. Yeah. That's engraved in my head that he wears a red scarf. This looks so wrong. It does look wrong. He's naked. No, put a scarf on him. He looks better. This is wrong. I don't remember the broom at all, but I remember the scarf. Man. All right. A lot of ones, he has a scarf on, except I guess that one.

Well, that wraps up the movies and the TV show related Mandela effects. So let's move into music related Mandela effects. Um, Hmm. I'll start it off. Now everyone is familiar with Mr. Rogers, right? Mr. Rogers neighborhood. Great TV show. Mm hmm.

In the TV show Mr. Rogers' Neighborhood, the song he sang was it, It's a Wonderful Day in the Neighborhood, A Beautiful Day in the Neighborhood, or It's a Wonderful Day in the Neighborhood, A Beautiful Day in this Neighborhood. A Beautiful Day in this Neighborhood, or Beautiful Day in the Neighborhood. I think it's the. That's what I keep singing in my head. The twice.

What about you, Dan? What do you sing in your head? Yeah, that's the same thing I sing. But apparently it's a beautiful day in this neighborhood. You're wrong, Mr. Rogers. So wrong. Supposed to be beautiful in all neighborhoods. Yeah. All right. What else y'all got? So this next song.

I would say is what I call one of my theme songs of life. And those are songs that randomly pop in my head. The same part of the song always gets stuck in my head. And I just, I'll sing it. So if you've heard of the band Men Without Hats, they have a song called Safety Dance. And I'm telling you, at least once a week, I sing this song. And which way does it go? Does it go

We can dance if we want to. We can leave your friends behind. Or you can dance if you want to. You can leave your friends behind. We can dance. We can dance if you want to. We can leave your friends behind. What about you, Dan? I actually kind of mix the two together. So I do like you can dance if you want to. We can leave your friends behind. Okay, that's interesting. Yeah.

My theme song is always, you can dance if you want to. You can leave your friends behind. Because if your friends don't dance and if they don't dance and they're no friends of mine. That's what I sing every time. It is now we can dance. Oh. Ew. So you were right. Dan, you're a mixer, right? Yeah, it's now we can dance. Yeah.

Some people say that they remember the version being a bit more upbeat, just like a little bit more happy. You can dance if you want to. We can leave you. Yeah, you're we can dance if we want to. You can leave your friends behind. We can leave your friends behind. Because if you don't dance.

So, and I haven't watched it again, but it is we in the current version, right? Yeah, it's we. We. Yeah, it's we can dance if we want to. We can leave it for response. Okay. Well. Yeah, so it is we, but I'm telling you, I've always sung you. I even went to Mr. Hans on this too, because he's a music guy. And he said, it's you. And I'm like, I know, dude, but it ain't in this reality.

So that one messes me. I'm still going to sing it to you because that's my song. Also, when I'm cleaning houses, I tend to get the song from Scrubs Stuck in My Head. And it's always the same line. I can't do this all on my own. No, I'm no. I'm no Superman.

So yeah, I sing that all the time when I'm cleaning and I just think I am doing it all on my own, but that's what I consider a theme song of my life. It just pops in there, gets me through my day randomly. Safety Dance has always been one of those songs. So to hear that it's different than what I've been singing for many, many, many, many years is surprising to me. It is weird. Dan, do you got anything interesting? All right. We got in 1977, the hit song by Queen, We Are The Champions.

Was the ending of the song, we are the champions, we are the champions, no time for losers, because we are the champions, dun, dun, dun, of the world? Of the world, exactly. Or, we are the champions, we are the champions, no time for losers, because we are the champions. Boring. Yeah, that's not it. No, it's gotta have, of the world. But guys, there was never of the world at the end of the song.

All right. Well, it's so where do we where do we get that from? I don't know. I specifically remember singing that part in gym class with the other classmates. I remember singing that with my dad and my brother. And it always had of the world at it because it's as it goes out of the world. And then it finishes off. Yeah. That's exactly what I remember to Dan. So that one blows my mind. I don't like it. They need to add it. Bring the guys back. Mm hmm.

Do you remember a show on TV in the early 90s called Lambchops Playhouse? It starred Sherry Lewis and a puppet named Lambchops. Lambchops, yes. What a horrible name. As adults looking back at it, I cannot believe. But yeah, I never thought about the fact that Lambchop was a type of meat that comes from a lamb. I was like, oh my gosh. Okay, but...

There's a song, obviously we know skidamarinky dinky dink, skidamarinky doo, I love you. That's one, okay. But there's another one that they sang on there. And it's, this is the song that Blank ends.

Or is it going to be doesn't end or never ends? This is the song that never ends. Yeah, never. This is the song that goes on and on. On, my friend. Some people started singing it not knowing what it was. Yeah. Well, I remember it being never ends, but it is doesn't end.

This is a song that doesn't end. Because it goes on and on. Like, that doesn't sound right at all. No, it doesn't. Not at all. And I linked a clip of it. And just hearing it, it's so wrong. This is the song that doesn't end. Yes, it goes on and on, my friend. That does not sound right. That's wrong. I know. I know.

Alright, so something that I found about the music group, the Village People. I know you guys have mentioned that you don't really know who they are, but do you have any memory of how many members they had? Either five or six? I always thought it was five. That's what I thought. If I had to guess, yeah, I would say five, because they stood on stage and there was a middle one and then two on each side, and then...

One, two, three, four, five. Yeah, two on the outside. Okay. Five would make a lot of sense. So I've always remembered five. Apparently there's six. You got the construction worker, the Native American, the policeman, the cowboy, the biker slash BDSM dude. He's definitely not a biker. He's certainly another character. But now there's an army man.

And sometimes he shows up as a Navy guy, but almost always he's an Army dude. And about the only time, from what I could find, the only time he ever showed up as a Navy person was In the Navy Now is one of their songs. And the Navy loved it so much that they wanted to use it as their recruitment video. So the gentleman who plays the Army guy,

guy dressed up as navy and so there is some confusion about if there was an army or a navy dude i just the way i look at that role is they just saw him as a military gi type person and they just kind of alternated him

But when you see him in the pictures, he's always off to the side. He looks like he's just been inserted. He looks so not a part of the village people. Yeah, you're right. It does look odd. Well, most people also... Whenever you've thought about the village people, have you ever thought, oh, I'm going to dress up as the military guy? I mean, that's just never one of the characters that pops in my mind. But...

I saw that 70s show clip that was trying to prove that there isn't an army guy. Because in it, Fez falls asleep listening to the village people, wakes up, and the village people are outside of his car. And when they're outside, the military gentleman is dressed up in all sailor attire. And the typical white hat, white suit. But when you see him, and unlike everything else, he's always in green.

And so this person was like, oh, this proves that the military guy never existed. And instead it was a Navy person. But the further I looked into it, it seemed like he played that Navy guy simply because if the Navy wanted to use that song in the Navy now as their recruitment song, they wouldn't have wanted an Army person as...

a member of the village people, so they changed it for that. But also, I'm gonna bring this up because I have to. The village people are very prominent in the LGBT community, and I just don't foresee our military taking on a song that is encompassed by gay people. And they aren't all gay, I'm not saying that.

But they certainly catered to that community with the way that they put on the masculine, I mean, macho, macho man. The way that they performed was very gay-esque, I guess. Just in case nobody knows, I am a part of all love, everyone loves everybody. And just like we're giving disclaimers about Daniel being Asian. I'm Asian?

I am part of that family. And so with saying that, these guys, most people in this family would say they're gay. They just come off that way. And the military would not put that as their... The Village People is our recruitment song in the Navy now. And then you go and you see YMCA. You know why we always thought there was five? Because the army guy was in camo. You can't see people in camo. Yeah.

Damn. All right. Well, that wraps up our music Mandela effects. And we have a couple of animal Mandela effects. And then we'll roll into theories. So this one kind of blew me away, this first one that we have. And Ana, you brought it to our attention, I believe, right? Yeah, this is the same day I learned about the Hunger Games episode.

I learned about what you're about to talk about. And I just, this is not true. I cannot believe this to be true. So I just found this out the other day that horses have mustaches. Yeah. So horses can grow mustaches now, apparently. Like full on mustaches. I've never seen a horse with a mustache until a little while ago. I'm totally blown away by it.

And I get that maybe we didn't learn about the breed of horses that grows mustaches, but this would be something that would have come up in my life before 31. Never, ever, ever have I heard this. And I have asked some friends that have been around horses their whole life, and they didn't remember this. Damn, they're even messing with animals. Oh, yeah. I mustache this wave that we're on and go into killer whales.

You'd think I was a father with my dad jokes. Nope, they're just there. Okay, so when you think of a killer whale or an orca, however you prefer to call them, when you think of their body coloring and the patterns that they have, do you remember if they have a mark behind their dorsal fin? No, I just thought they had a mark right behind their eye. A white mark. And maybe like white underneath, but the rest of them were black. Yeah, that's what I thought.

Yeah, so this beautiful drawing that somebody did of one is exactly how I imagine it. Now, what exists today is that they have this mustache-like mark behind their dorsal fin. And I have come to the idea now that someone that went back in time and is making jokes with mustaches. You're going to give us horses with mustaches and now you're giving me orca whales with mustaches on their bodies.

It's so weird. You see that mark in that second picture? If you go and look up orca whales, you're going to see that on all of them. What the hell? Yeah. Never, ever have I seen that. That's nuts. They've always just been black. Even Free Willy has that mark now. Now they're pissing me off. Okay, let me check something real quick, because I think I read something that Shamu did not have a bent-over dorsal fin.

And that really threw me off because technically he should have because he was in captivity. And that happens very commonly for... Yeah, he has a bent over dorsal fin. Okay. That must have been in a different reality. But isn't that sad that that happens because they don't swim enough that they don't have... They don't train those muscles to keep it upright. So they fall over because they just don't have any way to support it. I did not know that. Oh, man.

We need to stop this. I'm glad that places are closing down that have those, but it needs to go faster. But yeah. So now there's a mark on the back of Killer Whales that was never there in my lifetime before. Man. News to me. Yeah. All right. Dan, what do you have for us for this last one? Last one we got is African Gray Parrots. What color are their tails? I can't answer this because I have one.

Yeah. I remember them just being gray or like light colored like that. I can't remember exactly if their tail was all gray or if it had some white in it, but definitely no different colors than white, gray, or black. Yeah. Well, supposedly they now have a red tail, which I never knew that. Okay. So...

I'm going to tell you a story. We got an African gray a little while back. And OK, first off, there's two subspecies of African gray. Here's a little knowledge nugget for you. There's the Congo African gray and then there's the Timne African gray. The Timne African gray is smaller than the Congo. The Congo is a huge African gray. And they're they're both the same amount of intelligence in those type of African grays. But I always assume they were totally gray.

Until we got one. And it all had a red tail. And I was like, what the fuck's wrong with that African gray? And that's how I learned. It's not like it's subtle. It is the most vibrant red color.

You could put on that bird. So some of the Congos, well, almost all the Congos have a very, very vibrant red tail. Some of the Timneys don't really have that much of a vibrance, a red tail kind of. But yeah, that's crazy, huh? Yeah. Especially because you have one and you didn't remember that as a thing until you saw it and you didn't remember it. But now you have the knowledge that it's there. Yeah.

Oh my gosh. Crazy. Yeah. I would love to know what are some theories about how we get to this? Why does this happen? So there's a couple theories that people have about this. One of the theories is a parallel universe. So basically a parallel universe is a universe that's right next to ours and it's

Every once in a while, they merge and unmerge. And some traces of the other parallel universes left over into ours. Or they switch. And we're unaware of it. Is there any proof to these parallel universes? Eh, kinda. There's a thing called the London Hammer. I don't know if y'all are familiar with it. But...

It was a broken wooden handle with an iron hammer that was found fossilized in 1934 in London, Texas. They carbon dated this hammer and it came back to being over 140 million years old. That's older than dinosaurs. The dinosaurs, yeah, they weren't running around making hammers.

Unless there was a pre-civilization that had modern technology that was wiped out by aliens and then we just get restarted. There's a theory that this came from a parallel universe. It was kind of like brought over. Interesting. Sorry, I was just picturing a T-Rex using two hammers to extend its arms with the claw side down. Yeah. Do you have another theory for this, Anna? Yeah. So another one that some people will say it could be is the simulation theory.

that we're all in a simulation, just like the movie The Matrix, and every example of the Mandela Effect can be explained by glitches in The Matrix, or software glitches in our computer simulation, and the computer tries to do an autocorrect in the code and replaces the wrong code. Kind of like the simple difference of Bernstein and Bernstein bears, or...

Oh, never mind, that's different. That's in the next episode. But yeah, just these little teeny changes that you wouldn't think would make that big of a difference, except if you grow up knowing one thing and now it's not. The newer generations would have no idea that it wasn't Berenstain. And eventually, people won't know as we die off, unless it's all documented, but then they'll probably...

Delete it in 30 days like Google Docs is doing all of a sudden now. Yeah. If you got Google Docs, make sure you back them up onto an external hard drive. They're starting to delete documents and we found that out the hard way. Yep.

Yeah. It doesn't start until October 13th, though. But they've already started doing it to us, it seems like it. Yep. Alright. So our next theory we got is the Expanding and Collapsing Universe Theory, aka the Big Bounce. This theory stating that the repeat expansion and collapsing of the universe in which all things are played out the same, but slightly different each expansion. Example, in one expansion Sinbad gets a part in the movie where he was a genie.

And in another expansion, Shaq gets the part in a movie where he is a genie, causing the Shazam vs. Kazam Mandela effect. Which, we forgot to mention that one earlier. Yeah, I didn't know it was going to come back in later, but yeah. There's like some that are just so overdone that I don't want to like. And that's one of them. That is definitely one of them. But this theory also states that somehow we remember things from a different expansion and think it happened in this one.

It would account for how multiple people remember the same thing across the world, which kind of makes sense. It's kind of cool to think about. Yeah. So this next theory is over the Large Hadron Collider. So what is that?

So if you're familiar with CERN, that's what it's in there. That's what it is. When people say, oh, it's CERN doing these experiments, they're taking the LHC, this collider, and they're experimenting with it. So it's the world's largest and most powerful particle collider and the largest machine in the world.

It was built by the European Organization for Nuclear Research, also known as CERN, between 1998 and 2008 in collaboration with over 10,000 scientists in hundreds of universities and laboratories, as well as more than 100 countries.

So it lies in a tunnel that's 17 miles in circumference and as deep as 574 feet beneath the France and Switzerland border near Geneva.

Now the first collisions, so when it was first turned on and they started experimenting and doing these collisions with particles, that was in 2010. And it created an energy of 3.5 tera electron volts or TEV per beam, which was about four times the previous world record. After they did some upgrades to it, it reached 6.5 TEV per

and is pretty high in 13 TeV total collision energy, which is the present world record. So at the end of 2018, it shut down for two years for further upgrades. But what is the purpose of the Large Hadronic Collider? Well,

It allows physicists to test the predictions of different theories of particle physics, including measuring the properties of the Higgs boson and searching for a large family of new particles predicted by supersymmetric theories, as well as other unsolved questions of physics. Basically, they shoot these two particles extremely fast towards each other, and then they smash into each other, and then they study that. Pretty much they're recreating the Big Bang.

Yes. Trying to find the God particle. Now, this theory is that the Mandela effect came into existence after the Large Collider did its first test. Since then, maybe each time this test happened, it changed the universe or things inside the universe that caused these Mandela effects that we're observing.

Now, since it's been in a two-year shutdown, maybe that's why since 2018 these Mandela Effect theories have slowed down. But maybe they started that sum bitch up at the beginning of 2020. That's what I'm thinking. Let's see. 2020 CERN. Instant Pot thing, that's recent. I don't know if it's before 2018, but I know I haven't been in the Instant Pot world for a long time.

So. Well, if it two year shutdown since 2018, that means 2020 would be the year it starts back up. They got something in their plans for this. No, they announced that they will restart it in May of 2021. So just as everything's cooling down, they're going to start it back up. Yay. Yay. All right. So that's that theory. What else do we got for theories? Time travelers. Time travelers.

Gotta throw those in there. I like those. I love the time travelers. So maybe it is time travelers from the future, and they're making slight changes in our timeline that affect bigger things, like throwing mustaches on horses, just saying, or on orca whales. Mustache on the back of a whale, yeah. I mean, we all went through that trend where we had our mustache drawn on our finger, and maybe that's the time that they travel, and they're like, let's put some mustaches on things that don't need them. Ha ha ha.

Let's put a white mustache on an orca. It's going to throw everybody off. So if you've seen the Butterfly Effect movie, really good, highly recommended if you haven't. Maybe, so this is similar to the Butterfly Effect movie.

For example, maybe Nelson Mandela did die in prison in the 1980s. However, since he died, maybe South Africa was taken over by a ruthless leader who exposed a deadly virus that caused devastation to the world and killed a baby who was meant to be the savior of... Hold on, shit. That was when I wrote that in 2019.

And I put 2020 who exposed a deadly virus that caused devastation to the world and killed the baby who is meant to be a savior from an invading alien race in 2020. What the? Okay. Uh, we just had something really weird happen. So if you don't remember, uh, last year we did the Mandela effect and we ended up pulling it just so we could redo it and add more Mandela effects to the episode. And, um,

do redo the quality and everything. But one of the theories I took from our document, the last time we did it was a time traveler theory. And the last time I did it, we did it. What was 2019? We did have no idea about the Corona virus. And, uh,

I totally forgot about it, but I just made something up and said, for example, maybe Nelson Mandela did die in prison in the 80s. However, since he died, maybe South Africa was taken over by a ruthless leader who exposed a deadly virus that caused devastation to the world and killed a baby who was meant to be the savior from an invading alien race in 2020. So time travelers had to go back in time to save Nelson Mandela so that the other person didn't become the leader and the deadly virus never came to effect.

That's really weird. That is extremely weird. Very weird. I remember listening to that episode, but I don't remember this part being said in it. But it is so strange that you chose that year. I mean, it is the year, I guess, okay, maybe it's not so strange. But after the year we've had, it makes it a little bit more strange. Yeah, if aliens invade, boom. Well, we're learning more about them. Yeah.

Oh, nope. Never mind. I went back to Life Africa for a second. But that baby was called Life. Wait, that was in the 90s, right? Or was that in the 80s? Oh, hold up. Hold up. Oh, yeah, 70s. The 70s. Okay, and Nelson Mandela died in the 80s.

In this Mandela thing. What if Life Africa? What a name, right? Life Africa. If you aren't familiar with who this is, it's Patreon, our 1985 Philadelphia bombing episode. Life Africa is from that reference. So go sign up for Patreon, listen to 1985 Philadelphia bombing, come back. Aaron. Welcome back. What if Life Africa is the baby that was meant to be the savior and it died?

And Nelson Mandela didn't die in the 80s. Instead, he died in 2013. But Life Africa didn't actually survive. Oh, man. I don't know. Could have made a connection somewhere in there. It just popped in my head like one of those things where I couldn't ignore it. So I said it out loud. Sounds crazy? I'm crazy. Hello. Have you met me yet? Aliens. Hello. Hello.

I like reaching for the stars as far as I can reach and then knocking on my door and saying, hello, alien brethren. I've been missing you upon the planet Earth. Can you please give me some more intelligence? I would really love that. On planet dirt. It's called Earth. All right. Yeah, that's very weird that that was said in 2019 as a theory. Oh, man. The prophets of podcasting. Yeah. That sucks.

That should be our tagline. Yep. All right. Since I kind of took that one over, Ana, you want to take this? Hell yeah. All right. So we're going to go and talk about just a quick second on MKUltra. I know we bring it up a lot.

But there's always grounds for it. So for this one, what about the theory of what if the government is still doing experiments except in mass and going around and slightly changing history to see how it overall affects people? I mean, this would be a good experiment to see how many people are paying attention to the world around them. Yeah. Very easy. Oh, I've never noticed this before.

But then again, how crazy are you when you don't know that horses have had mustaches your whole life? Because they haven't. They've only just gotten them in the last few years, as far as I'm concerned. Really, they could have just started it a couple months ago when I learned about it. But according to people who live on this reality for their whole life, they've always had mustaches. And they're so sure of it. The goddamn government, I'm telling you. I mean, it fits. It definitely fits.

If you think about it now, with all the shit going on now, people are just like, all right, what's going to happen next? Like, they're not even going to be, like, shocked anymore when something happens. They're just like, all right, aliens are going to invade us. Let it happen. Apocalypse. Oh, the world's ending. All right. Wouldn't be surprised. We've, like, given up on being surprised about anything anymore. Ever since we...

Just ever since the last, like, four years, things have been, oh, okay. And especially the last year, we've just, oh, we learned about aliens? Okay. We already knew they were there. You know, and these things that should be making huge headlines are just getting swept under the rug. And it just doesn't make sense. Yeah. What's going to happen next? We don't know. I think Baba Vanga knows. And the Hopi people know.

All right, Dan, what's this last theory you got for us? The last one we got is the reptilian overlords. Reptilian overlords are changing history to fit their needs, and it is a game to them to see how much they can change and get away with. I like that one. It's nice. I'm sure David Icke would love that one, too. I mean, it's... Are they the mustaches? Because they can't have mustaches. Oh, man. You solved it. Solved it. All right.

So let's move on to personal thoughts and theories. Who wants to start it off? What's your personal thought and theory behind it all? Whomever. You want me to start it off? I mean, I don't have mine written down. It's just in my mind. Go for it. I feel that it's the multiverse theory because every time you get put into a decision and you choose one alternative, hypothetically...

you still play out that other option in another universe. It splits off. And that's why every little decision you make, it may not affect this world per se, but it continues on to the next. And so I just think that we shift into these similar planes very easily because it wouldn't surprise me if this is what it's like when we die.

We never know that we actually die. We just shift into a very similar plane of life where the frequency is the same. We're vibrating at that same rate and we just transition. And that's why some of us remember certain things and the others don't. I think that we can tap into others or even this one. If you haven't seen the OA,

Highly recommend it. Please go and watch it. It will change your life, okay? Well, in it, when you shift realities, what happens to the person that was there before you? Do you and does that person just disappear? Like what? There has to be a version that was in this reality that you're now in. Well, supposedly, you integrate with that person.

but you suppress the person who was there before or they're the person that's completely in control and the person that you are. Like if I shifted to another reality, I would either remember everything about this in my life as it was and it never changed or I would be a completely different version of myself that could be called Andrea and I've been doing something else my whole life. Well, if I am aware and I transition to this next universe,

I should be able to integrate my two people together. And I have shared memories of both realities. So sometimes, like in these Mandela effects, I'm like, oh, I could see that, but I could also see it the other way. Is that because...

The Ana that was in this reality before I came into it remembers that. And that's why my memory gets confused on what I know. It's very similar to my theory. Like, it's almost exactly the same.

I haven't read yours. Yeah, it's like multiple realities close to this one. If one breaks off or suffers massive trauma, that reality ends in the consciousness of alternate selves merge with the nearest duplicate in the next nearest alternate reality.

But not every reality has someone's duplicate in it, and one of the majority being moved over to an almost identical reality are instead moved to realities more than once removed from certain events or timelines. These conscious thoughts do not bend seamlessly or almost seamlessly.

As the majority left in the reality closer to the universe, they just left. In other words, the further a person is removed from their original reality, more and more things do not match up in their past history. So sort of kind of like yours. Yeah, I'd say so. So that just made me had a thought, though. When you were saying, like, say the people integrating their personalities, integrating. And I was just thinking, what if they didn't integrate to where they were just there and

pretty much trying to fight over control over one body. Would that explain people with dissociative identity disorder? Like schizophrenia and multi-personality? Damn, Dan. So I know I've talked about my theory about, I guess it is that, that people, and I'm not saying this as if you have issues, please see a doctor. This is just my Anna deep-minded thinking right here.

What if people with schizophrenia and multiple personality disorder are stuck between realities and they are actually talking to people? They really are doing these things that some people mark them as crazy about, but they are just somehow in tune with reality.

these different versions so i definitely can see what you're saying there dan that yeah you have this moment where you can't make those two go together whatever being was there first it's like no i'm stronger than you you're not taking me over

And then you're like, no, but I just came from a different reality and I definitely need to be in this one because I came here. So I'm supposed to be here. So you need to go. And then you're constantly fighting each other. And now you get put in a mental hospital and then you seem to be more crazy because you're stuck with your thoughts even more than you were before. Dan, you got me thinking hard now. Damn, Daniel. All right, Dan, what's your theory? Mine is not as fascinating as y'all's at all. But have y'all heard of the power of suggestion?

Of course. All right. So I think the Mandela effect is the government influence through suggestion. So is it possible that the media working with the government giving us fake news is a way of suggesting false events or details into our memories?

so that later down the road, they would have written over the actual event with the power of suggestion, which manipulate our memory of a certain event. So, the only reason I say that is, I read there was a case in 1990 of Gary Romana. He was accused of sexually assaulting his 19-year-old daughter, which the therapist, Marcia Isabella,

who was treating his daughter for depression and bulimia, supposedly implanted false memories, which this destroyed his career and pretty much tore his family apart. And he was able to actually take therapists to court and actually ended up winning the case that the therapist was in fact implanting false memories into his daughter's pretty much memories saying that, you know, Oh,

Sounds like your father, you know, sexually abused you. Just kept putting that into her head over and over until she believed it. Now, as a disclaimer, I'm not saying that it did not happen. I'm just stating what the case was about. The mother and the daughter still believe that it did happen. But I was just saying, you know, he took them to court and it turned into a big deal. Like even I think like all the I think it's like all the psychiatrists.

like big group or whatever, even got involved in it because this is like, this is not the way we're supposed to be. You're not supposed to be implanting memories or false memories or like that. Right. Yeah. So I was just like empower suggestion. Cause you know, over time you keep like, think about it. You're telling a story, say we'll go, I'm gonna go with a fishing story. I caught a fish this big.

Next time I tell it, oh, fish this big. And the more and more I tell it, the fish gets bigger. But every time I keep suggesting that it's bigger, you're going to remember that the fish is going to be bigger when I tell the story. You're not going to remember that it's a small ass fish unless you just hang on to that first time I told it. So the fact that you keep suggesting like it's this way, the more like more that people start to believe it.

And then the people that don't believe it, they hang on to that first memory of it are the ones experiencing the Mandela effect. And this is why we have a great trifecta here. Dan, you are our grounded person who comes up with things that make a lot more sense, a lot of sense from a realistic point of view, because I can definitely see that.

And I love that we have people like Aaron and I who are like, it's multiverse. Definitely a multiverse. I love y'all's theories. Mine seems so boring because it's like, okay, yeah, that might be it. I'd rather there be multiple parallel universes and shit. It sounds more exciting. Well, so I wrote down things to say that wasn't on the paper. So that way you guys can like not be predetermined of answers and stuff like before reading it. Yeah.

Quantum immortality or infinite universe is something that quantum physics has talked about. And they have said, like, this whole splitting. You guys, science is not my strong suit. And I wish I had this written down. This is coming off my memory here. So when a molecule is observed, it can act differently than when it's not being watched. Yeah.

Yeah. When an observer's looking at it, it acts differently. Yep. Yeah. So I was trying to explain how quantum physics has said this multiverse is a real thing, that it's very, very plausible. Like, it is the fact that there's quantum immortality because when you, if you have, make a decision, it's going to go linear.

Like, that's what you think. But really, there's a slit. And when you make a decision, it splits off into two different paths. It's like a yes or no. Like, you decided that you're going to walk down the street this day. So that's the slit that you went through. But then you didn't walk down the street that day. So that...

went through the second slit, which created your second multiverse, where now that version of you is living out the life from that point forward of you not walking down that street. And that's a very shitty example, but...

So every time you do that, you go between that slit and one version of you continues and the other one splits off into another multiverse. And that's why you can have this whole quantum or this infinite universe and quantum immortality talks about that we just never die. I mean, we die in this version of Earth, but we don't actually ever die. We just transition to the next one because we have so many other ones to live in and we're connected to them all.

Yeah, that goes so good with one of my stories that I have on the Patreon episode for Glitches in the Matrix. I can't wait. That one's going to be a really good one to do. Yeah. I was looking at my paper because I wrote down some random ones of like, let's bring this up without the boys seeing it to see if they remember these little things. And there's only like two. But those little cakes from Hostess that are...

Chocolate rolls filled with cream. Do you know what I'm talking about? No. They're rolls. Oh, I know what you're talking about, but oh, the name. I'll say it starts with Swiss. Swiss cakes. Okay. What about you, Dan? I guess Swiss rolls.

Those are the two options that we either know one or the other. Apparently Swiss rolls are what they're called. But yeah, they are called Swiss rolls. But many people remember them as Swiss cake. I'm like, in my mind, it's been Swiss rolls.

It makes sense. They're rolled up. You know, it's funny, Dan, because I do see the Ho-Ho's on here, and they are the same. Oh, it's because... Oh, my bad, guys. Little Debbie makes Swiss rolls. Hostess makes Ho-Ho's. Stupid brands trying to keep up with everything. Well, here's something that you guys will probably know. Did you play Halo? Yes. Oh, yes. Okay. So, in Halo 2, they have co-op mode that you can do in the story.

And that's like a big thing about Halo is it's they make it to where you can play it co-op and different outcomes happen when you make different decisions. Well, in the co-op mode in the first two levels, armory was one of them. Do you guys remember playing co-op mode on the armory where you'd like go in a subway or a train car and it takes you to the armory and then you like go out and fight right afterwards? Is this the very first Halo?

It was the first Halo, I want to say it was. It had to be the first one because I don't think I played the first one other than the multiplayer. Yeah, I played the multiplayer the first one of the storyline. Okay. Well, something that's been recently brought to people's attentions that they're very confused about, and this is on Halo 2, is that there is no co-op mode on the first two levels of Halo 2.

And people who played it are like raging about it. They're like, I remember my friends coming over and we did split screen and we do co-op on that. And I remember sitting in that train car waiting to get to the end of it. And then we'd go into fight. And all these people remember it and it's never existed. I played mostly multiplayer.

I agree with you, and I still do today. But not on Halo, because I've moved past Halo. When I played the co-op campaign, split screen, we always started off in the spaceship. We never started off where the train and stuff was. I think that's because since recently I played Destiny 2, give it a shot, see how it is. The first couple missions and stuff for campaign, they make you do alone as a tutorial.

Then after a couple of missions, you're now able to do co-op. So I think since it's like a bungee type game, they try to do that to where they get you to play a couple missions by yourself to get used to it. And then when you join co-ops, somewhat like say if you did online co-op or something like that, you don't get raged at like on Counter-Strike. Just saying. I hate that game. Not like I've ever experienced that. All right. Has anybody else got anything they want to add to this episode before we wrap it up?

No, I will say I was so excited when we got this episode on the list for, I mean, it's been sitting there waiting and waiting. And every week that went by, I got more and more excited because this was definitely one of my top episodes to do as far as what I was excited about. And simulation theory is another one. But, oh, man, I feel I feel really good that we got to finally do this episode. Definitely good episode. I liked it. Yeah, I liked a lot more examples than I remember. That's for sure.

Oh, yeah. There's so much more, you guys. Just go look in yourself and write in, especially when we get the if you're on Discord, we'll have a subcategory for this. I would love to know what you guys have found over the years, and I'd love to talk about it.

Yep, and the only way to get access to our Discord is through signing up to our Patreon, which is five bucks a month. For five bucks a month, you get access to all past episodes as well as the current coming up episodes for that month, and you get access to the Discord. Yeah, and we have 19 episodes on there already, and we started putting blooper reels online.

on the patreon as well yeah we used to just cut those out but now each week we take them and we create a bloopers reel so you get some extra content trying to put out as much as we can for that five bucks a month that's right yeah and for patreon we're also doing a q a yes we're also doing a q a exclusive only patreon episode that will be coming up that will be an extra episode for the patreon people that week

Not only will they have their regular conspiracy type episode for Patreon, but they'll also have a Q&A episode. So, yeah. You can ask us questions. Yeah, you can ask us whatever you want. We do not have a Hans on the scene report this week. He is traveling through space and time trying to get us the best interviews he can.

So that will move us straight to voicemails. We have a lot this week. So we're going to be going through these pretty quickly. So the first voicemail we got this week is from Anonymous. And we'll play that one right now. I just want to say I just found you guys' podcast while at work. And it's really interesting. I just want to say that. Well, thank you, Anonymous. I'm glad you found it interesting. Appreciate the love. Yeah.

I'm so curious what you find interesting. Please get back to us. The NSA got him. Oh, yeah. Snapped him up. You're listening to him. Yeah. Thank you, Anonymous. Love you. And I hope you have a good weekend. Yep. Thank you. All right. This next one is from Justin, and we'll play those right now. Hey, it's Justin, also known as Overboost, Yeti 2020. You know the deal, Dan.

Anyways, I'm out here in my backyard, butt naked with a machete, waiting on reptiles to show up, you know, just in case. Thinking about all this dimension stuff Ana's been talking about, and about the hemi-sync, and how drugs and alcohol can make you co-phase. And I started thinking about, whenever we had our little Discord chat about the fifth dimension, me and her were talking about, you know, how you get that vibrating feeling inside you where you feel like...

Your soul or your energy or whatever inside you is trying to get out. You're trapped. And whenever you drink or smoke or whatever your vice is, you start to calm down that vibrating feeling. What if it's because you're starting to co-phase with a dimension or a reality that vibrates more at your frequency and it helps kind of sync it or harmonize and smooth that out?

So, you know, maybe a possibility. Let's see, what else? Dang, all this breeze on my boys. Making me lose my thought. Anyways, stay cool, stay awesome. Miss you. Well, hey, Overboost. I haven't talked to you much lately, but my Discord presence has been a bit limited. It's an interesting theory about us using our vices to balance things.

us trying to co-phase. But in my mind, especially right now, I'm trying to reach higher levels of vibration. So if I try to push down that person in me that's trying to vibrate out, then I'm stunting my growth as a spiritual being. So if I was smoking...

Because I didn't want to feel that anymore. I would not smoke. For me personally, when I smoke, it connects me a lot more to that side of me and helps me think deeper and whatnot. So I think that we should be embracing that vibrating and trying to expand who we are as beings. And I'm going to say this now because this is so important.

All y'all in the world, everybody needs to start doing some shadow work. Go look it up. But it's basically all of us have, not just in this lifetime, but in our past lives, created these shadows of us where we repress parts of us that are not, quote unquote, accepted in society. One big example is sensitivity in men.

If you grow up being a kind soul who cries maybe even more than the average person, you get told, oh, that's not manly. You can't do that. And so you learn to suppress that part of you, which is that is a part of who you are. And you should never, ever close off who you are, because then you start to have problems and problems.

Your whole life. You may become reclusive when before you were very outgoing. And so working on this shadow work helps you to bring out those parts of you that you've been hiding for your whole life and before that. And allows you to be more of your true authentic self. Which lets you vibrate higher and lets you feel free and you unlock gifts that you've had your whole life but you haven't let yourself see. So shadow work, all y'all.

If you love yourself, go do some shadow work. PSA of the day. Nice. Nice. Yes. So thank you Overboost for calling in and bringing this up. I know we need to get another combo going on Discord because Texas Ranger, I think is what your name is. Texas Walker. I know you and I still have to talk and we need to do that.

So anyways, love you, dude. Thank you so much for calling in. I'll reach out to you. Nice. Overboost, keeping it real with Bigfoot 2020. Yeah, yeah. You stay safe in Arkansas, okay? You stay safe there. Much love. Yeah, much love, Overboost. I appreciate it. I hope you're doing good out there butt naked with a machete. Okay, so the next voicemail we have is from Cloud Chewy, and we're going to play that right now.

It's your boy, Cloudy Chewy, coming at you again. Yeah, absolutely. I listen to you guys while I'm making sweet, sweet love to my fiance. It just gets me going. Whenever I listen to you guys while I'm doing it with my girl, I feel like I just did three kilos of cocaine. I just have so much energy and I... You guys get me going. And...

I'll be wearing a Bigfoot 2020 shirt when I'll be making love, and that'll get me going even more, thinking about Bigfoot's huge schlong. I also had an idea. What if we make a mold out of Bigfoot's schlong and sell them for the campaign? You know, I feel like that would be a good way to get some votes. Buy a schlong and cast a vote. Bigfoot 2020, and remember...

I get a boner if you tell my listen to you guys. I love you. Especially you, Daniel-san. I mean, for one, his campaign should be, buy a schlong and we'll all get along. It was just... Oh, fuck. Damn. It's not wrong to buy a schlong. Mm-hmm. There's so many good campaign slogans there. Hell yeah. All right, so the next voicemail we have is from that one guy, and we'll play that right now.

Hey, it's that one guy. Love your show. It's great. I'm listening to the Las Vegas episode right now, Las Vegas shooting. A couple things to add. M240 Bravo has a cyclic rate of 600 rounds per minute. That is correct. All AR-15s have a cyclic rate of anywhere from 780 to 900 rounds per minute, and that is because of gas. It is a gas-operated direct impingement system.

And gas pressure affects the speed of the volt, which affects the cyclic rate of the firearm. So in order for an AR-15 to get down to 600 rounds per minute, you either have to not be using a 5.56 NATO chambering. You could be using something like 300 blackout. It uses much faster powders, has lower gas pressure at the port, etc.

That's really the only way you could ever get a direct impingement system down to 600 RPM with an adjustable gas block. And even then, you're going to have a hard time getting the bolts to cycle at that slow speed. So yeah, I absolutely think it was either an M240 or an M249 Saul. Marine Corps veteran. Been around him a lot. And that's my take on that. And I'm about out of time. Love you guys. You have a good one. Not sure if you got my other message, but this is that one guy again.

I wanted to add a couple things. In order for an AR-15 to run 600 rounds per minute, like I said, you couldn't do that with an NATO cartridge. What would happen is the bolt would be traveling so slow and have such low kinetic energy that you would short stroke it. And short stroking means that the bolt doesn't come back far enough to grab the next round and chamber it. And it causes a failure to feed, failure to fire.

Also, it did look like Steven Paddock was shot in the head. Typically if you're shot in the chest, in the lungs particularly, or the heart area with a 5.56 NATO round, at point blank range the gas pressure has nowhere to go. So it takes the path of least resistance. If the bullet enters, you've got gases coming behind it through the laminar flow.

That gas is going to take the path to lose resistance, which is through the lungs, up the esophagus, and out the mouth. Also notice in those pictures that the 5.56 NATO cases behind Mr. Paddock, while he's laying on the ground with his head blown off, don't have blood on them.

That one guy again, when the dude shot up the Republican baseball game with SKS, that was a couple days before the Hearing Protection Act was to be voted on. And the Las Vegas shooting happened roughly a week before the SHARE Act was going to be voted on, which the Hearing Protection Act was rolled into.

Fun fact, in the day that shooting happened, Hillary Clinton sent out a tweet saying it's a good thing he didn't have a silencer because nobody would have ever heard the shots, even though that's not true because the rounds were traveling supersonic and you would have still had the supersonic crack. Just fun, fun, fun facts about that episode. And like I said, it was probably an M240 Bravo, 600 rounds per minute. Sounds exactly like it.

That's all I got. You guys are great. I love you guys. Awesome. Thank you, that one guy. Man, that's a lot of information right there. Dude knows his guns, huh? Yeah. What do you think about that? I'm impressed. Oh, yeah. Super impressed. Even Papa Hans would be impressed hearing all that. Papa Hans would be all over him. Me and Hans have a connection. I already know he's got a boner for you, that one guy. He's like, I need to go talk to him.

You know, Hans even said that after he listened to the episode, he said,

That it could have been, that we should have looked to see if we could find the caliber of bullet that was found from these different shootings. Because depending on the caliber of bullet would have changed the rate of fire as well in the bump stocks if that's what they were. But yeah, I think, you know, Hans and that one guy, y'all need to get together and have some conversation about this. You could crack the code. Yeah, we definitely could.

Yeah. But thank you for the voicemail that one. No. Like you mentioned, I didn't even think about the blood splatter. I didn't either. I was just thinking about that now. I was like, damn, that's a good observation.

Yeah. And you're right. We all did think it was weird that he shot himself in the head, but there was even the police officer said they didn't see a gunshot wound. But if he had been shot in the chest, like you said, and that's why he got blood that came into his mouth. I don't know. Interesting stuff. Yeah, I think so, too. Thank you so much for that. We love you, dude. You're awesome.

There's a lot of people who know guns and that made a lot more sense to them. Me, I don't really know anything about guns. So it was kind of over my head, but you sounded real smart and you drew me in. So thank you for that. It was definitely an M240 Bravo 420. 69. Yeah. Sick. That one damn guy. Thank you. Love you. Thank you.

I know a little bit about guns, but you definitely know way more than me. And I have a 300 blackout. I love that thing. Thank you for the voicemail and that those knowledge nuggets that you dropped on us. I love it. Thank you. Yep. Always love those. All right. So that wraps up the voicemails this week. Um, we still have some, we have left to play just this episode.

A little long this week, so we're kind of, you know, taking things pretty quickly so we can have enough space for the next couple episodes that we put out. But any of y'all got any shout outs before we wrap this thing up? So we got some new followers on Twitter as we do. Johnny Tsunami, I see you on here, man. I don't see you on Discord very much, but you need to get up on there. He asked me what I look like as people do.

And my response to him was that some people might think I'm majestic. Others might say I look a bit like Ruby Rose. So for any of y'all that want to know, that's pretty much me. Just kidding. But really, I'll take her energy all day, any day. I'm getting hot thinking about her. All right. So Jamie is digging for coins is a new listener as well as at good brother 89.

Him and Jamie is digging for coins. Both started following us. They found us through an A&E Wrestling Unstricted that we got a shout out from with Andy Complains and The Butcher. Is that the same guy? So, yeah. So Andy Complains is the guy, his real name. It's the guy's name is Andy Williams. He plays...

A gimmick known as the butcher, also known, you know, a character known as the butcher on AEW, which is all elite wrestling. It's basically like WWE. Yeah. And they were on the AEW podcast and Andy Williams shadows, you know, gave us a shout out, said he listened to the diet loft pass episode. Really appreciate that. And, uh, I love their gimmick and get this. Not only is Andy Williams also, uh,

a part of the Butcher and the Blade for the AEW wrestling, but he's also the rhythm guitarist for the band Every Time I Die, which is extremely popular.

Nice. Yeah. And he's like super swole too. I don't know if you guys have seen this image. I watched the podcast, the YouTube of it, and I thought they were really cool. I had never heard of them before. I personally have not really been into wrestling. The last time I watched wrestling, I was watching China and Sting. So if that gives you any indication of how far back I go. You're right there. You're right there. God damn. That dude is jerked.

I would not fuck with him. I'm sure the guitar just plays noises due to its fear of it being held by the... That's so true. But we appreciate the shout-out, man, and that you love the Dyatlov Pass. That one was so crazy. You know, he was saying that he likes to put on conspiracy theory podcasts or paranormal stuff and then try to stay awake because he's always doing shit. He's a busy guy. And...

If you got a suggestion, man, on a topic that you've heard and you want to go deeper in, you just send us a message and we can definitely look about putting that on our list. Because we got quite the lineup. But if you need something to keep you awake, also our Patreon has 19 episodes to do the same thing. Check us out. Yeah. I'm proud of you. And I love you.

Ooh, I'm surprised you didn't do a macho man impression. Yeah, I was just looking at it. Let me tell you something, brother. No, that's Hulk Hogan. Oh, wait. Let me tell you something, brother. Let me tell you something, brother. What'd you say, Dan? Is that his wrestling persona or gimmick? Kind of reminds me of Hulk Hogan a little. A little bit, yeah. Also, the Oosh tagged us in a video that's awesome. It's Sasquatch playing one more time.

But he's creating the music and it's so, it's honestly a really cool video. So hop over on the Twitter and check it out. But I really enjoyed it. I appreciate the smooth melodies. You're fucking awesome, dude. You know exactly what we like. All right. So from Eric on Facebook, he sent us this image. He's just like, here you go, buddy. Sorry, it's blurry. I'll send the pic on Instagram as well. Hope you guys think it's as funny and interesting as it is. Love you. I'm proud of you.

It's during the Las Vegas shooting, the guy drinking ends up standing up and giving the bird to the shooter during the whole shooting. Jesus. Yeah, I see that. Drinking that liquid courage. That's what I'm saying. Then Nick shot to him, Sarah and Tanya, you know, all messaging me and commenting on Facebook and such. That's pretty much it.

Nice. I wanted to shout out everybody on Discord, all the love and support, you know, kneecaps, love ya, and everybody else, you know, I wish you all well.

And I think that's pretty much it for this episode. Thank you for joining us. If you want to, make sure you check our Patreon out and check our merch out. So with that being said, I want to thank you for joining us today. And again, thank you for the support. You are all amazing, every single one of you. So with that being said, Dan and Ana, you want to roll us out? Sure, I will. It's okay to be out of this world with your thoughts. Because you're not alone.
