    Nice! I am leaving for a road trip in a few hours and was hoping this would show up first. . . You guys are pure awesome.

  • Troy

    Bat-Winged Monkey Bird? Seriously, why not just call it a gargoyle and be done with it.

  • http://dailygrail.com/ Red Pill Junkie

    You know, that posits an interesting truth about the Paranormal: when dealing with something COMPLETELY outside your normal scheme of things, you’ll always try to interpret it based on what you already know.

    So, how would you go about explaining to a child what a gargoyle is, without showing an actual image of a gargoyle?

    PS: Huge Kudos to the female caller offering her theory about Bigfoots on acid. I just <3'd it :)

    Elliot sounds Hot!

    Guys! What’s up with the parachute pants….? Don’t make fun. Honestly I loved my two pairs from 85/86. I’m not positive but I think one pair was purple :)

    Seriously though, I would wear them now if I could find a pair that fit!!

  • possibilianist G-gnome

    I am glad you guys talked about channeling and the new age stuff on the latest podcast.

    I haven’t followed a lot of channeled material but some of it seems to ring true for me. Not so much in a scientific way, but more from a solid spiritual principle angle. For example, Ester Hicks channeling Abraham and answering questions live or Neil Donald Walsh writing his channeled books. How can some of this stuff just roll of the tongue like that. Same with some of the channeling artists out there. It’s almost easier to imagine there is another force at work than this coming solely from human creativity.

    To me, sometimes it just seems too smooth to be faked or almost too complex (yet consistently positive, accepting and compassionate) to be created by someone with just pen and paper.

    I do really understand where you guys are coming from and the whole industry that has sprung out of this genre….. For the most part though channeled messages seem to be very positive and loving. I know for me, positive thinking, attitude and perception have played a huge part in improving my life. (along with some occult magik that I learned from one of your shows….. just kidding)

    Anyway, lighten up on the love and light, eh!

    I think Elliot is a tulpa that has become self aware.

    Speaking of Bat-winged Monkey Bird, have you guys ever done the Jersey Devil on your show? He’s got an NFL hockey team named after him.

    Aside from the 3 foot height, the bat-winged monkey-bird sounds similar to Mothman, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mothman

    Just FYI awesome MU guys, it appears the Plus show is the version accesible to everyone via the play button above. Unless you are kindly sharing that with us all as a very early Xmas present, you may wish to tweak that. ;) Thanks again for the show.

  • azzwright

    It’s an hour and 5 min. With the Plus+ extension it’s an hour and 43. Listen a little longer and you will see its just a teaser.

  • Enfant De Guerre

    During one of your Podcasts you discussed a French Soldier who was so badassed that he fought for Napoleon, or something like that, and eventually died at some really old age (100+ perhaps) still in the military. I was wondering which episode that was as I can’t track it down.
