In the summer of 1994, four teens

0:02

entered an abandoned building and graves in

0:04

Brooklyn. It was the last time they

0:06

would be seen alive. With few clues

0:09

and no witnesses, the case went cold.

0:11

But for Anthony Brewer, the brother of

0:13

one of the victims, the search never

0:15

stopped. In 2024, he acquired evidence from

0:18

the police that contained DNA samples that

0:20

didn't match the teens. That discovery put

0:22

his life and the life of his

0:25

family in grave danger. Goosebumps, The Vanishing.

for team. Hello

1:38

and welcome to an episode

1:40

of Drew Rinking the Kool-Aid.

1:42

This is a comedy podcast

1:45

dedicated to the mysterious. My

1:47

name is Cassidy. My name is

1:49

Amanda. And just gonna start

1:51

off right away. We are in LA. We

1:53

are safe. We are not in a fire

1:56

zone. We have some air quality

1:58

issues here in Long Beach. but

2:00

we are blessed compared to what

2:02

many people are experiencing. And thank

2:04

you to everyone who reached out

2:06

to check in on us. We

2:09

luckily, like I said, are not

2:11

in an evacuation or fire zone.

2:13

So we are okay. And once

2:15

again, thank you for everyone who

2:17

reached out. Yes, thank you very

2:19

much. Yeah. And obviously our hearts

2:22

go out to everyone that is

2:24

affected by the fires in LA.

2:26

Hopefully you guys have seen all

2:28

the resources and everything that we

2:30

have been posting. Yes, we've been

2:32

posting on Twitter and on Instagram

2:34

resources. If you are able to

2:36

donate or share or anything like

2:38

that, please do. We have both

2:40

contributed to various. Funds and Mutual

2:42

aid which I think mutual aid

2:44

is like one of the most

2:46

important ways to get help out

2:48

there Amanda has been really focused

2:50

on making sure that animals are

2:52

being taken care of There's a

2:54

lot of animals who were left

2:56

behind and are now You know

2:58

strays just walk literally just walking

3:00

around There's also animals that just

3:02

were separated from their families for

3:04

reasons they could not control. I

3:06

mean, it's just I mean it's

3:08

mayhem It is. The thing is,

3:10

like, when you live in somewhere

3:12

like this, where there's like, oh,

3:14

it's something you also similarly see

3:16

with, like, hurricane warnings, where people

3:18

are like, okay, well, we've had

3:20

four or five hurricane warnings, and

3:22

nothing ever happened, and it was

3:24

fine. I'm not gonna, I'm not

3:26

gonna evacuate, right? Yeah. And so

3:28

people don't take it seriously, because...

3:30

90% of the time, it's fine.

3:32

But unfortunately, like, the reason evacuation

3:34

notices and evacuation warnings exist is

3:36

because that 10% of the time

3:38

is so devastating, like, you have

3:40

to take it seriously. So if

3:43

you are in LA and you

3:45

are under any sort of evacuation

3:47

warning, or especially an evacuation notice,

3:49

like, please take it seriously. I

3:51

mean, I know now we all

3:53

have seen the, just how terrifying

3:55

it is. Yeah. And you also

3:57

have to remember guys like, like

3:59

some of these houses are worth

4:01

a lot of money, but a

4:03

lot of these people have been

4:05

living there since like the 50s

4:07

and 60s or 70s and like

4:09

that is their only asset. Yeah.

4:11

And meanwhile insurance companies have been

4:13

dropping people over the last year.

4:15

I'm pretty sure the insurance company

4:17

specifically for like the fire stuff

4:19

happened within days before. So after

4:21

the Malibu fires a lot of

4:23

insurance companies refused to renew people's...

4:25

plans for fire safety and you

4:27

see a lot of that happening

4:29

also in Florida for like flooding

4:31

and hurricane insurance and I mean

4:33

so a lot of these people

4:35

lost yes a beautiful home and

4:37

you want to be like oh

4:39

you know when we talk a

4:41

lot about rich people on this

4:43

show or whatever like a lot

4:45

of people like that was that

4:47

was their entire wealth like that

4:49

was the asset that that gave

4:51

them wealth no absolutely and so

4:53

we have to remember like the

4:55

enemy is not rich people whose

4:57

houses burnt down, like we shouldn't

4:59

be celebrating that ever. The enemy

5:01

is the up even higher. You

5:03

know, so yeah, our heart goes

5:05

out to everybody. I mean, I've

5:07

been watching. I, okay. I've never

5:09

watched Laguna Beach. Is that the

5:11

show? It's not O.C. No, it's

5:13

actually The Hills is what you

5:15

want to be referring to. Okay.

5:17

So I never watched The Hills.

5:19

But I have recently become obsessed

5:21

with. Spencer and Heidi Pratt. Yes.

5:23

Yes. Like obsessed. I listen to

5:25

her music, like I stream her

5:27

music. And I have to say,

5:29

it's good. You, okay, so before,

5:31

even before the fires happen too,

5:33

like you were texting me about

5:36

Spencer Pratt. Oh, I've been obsessed

5:38

with both of their Tiktoks for

5:40

like months now. Yeah, and you've

5:42

been. So this is before the

5:44

fires, but right now, he's blowing

5:46

up because their house burnt down.

5:48

I'm so sorry. I mean, really,

5:50

truly incredible content that he's been

5:52

putting out. Obviously it's devastating that

5:54

it has to come. during this

5:56

tragic situation that's happening to him.

5:58

And he will say, if you

6:00

go to his TikTok, he does

6:02

say that. He's like, oh, funny

6:04

how like nobody wanted to pay

6:06

everyone was calling me a houseburn

6:08

down. Yeah. But yeah, like he's

6:10

been posting like. I mean, really,

6:12

Heidi as well, I don't know

6:14

if you've seen any of hers.

6:16

I know I have. Just like

6:18

really honest, like raw of like

6:20

how it feels to be in

6:22

this situation. And obviously he has

6:24

like more of like a comedic

6:26

take on it just personality wise

6:28

and she's been like very vulnerable

6:30

and raw about all of it.

6:32

But they've also been really honest

6:34

that their insurer dropped them like

6:36

eight months ago and so they

6:38

had no fire insurance. So like

6:40

that everything that they had is

6:42

gone and nobody that is going

6:44

to be helping to financially relieved.

6:46

and that like it's just so

6:48

insane that that is even legal

6:50

and allowed and is crazy for

6:52

them to just drop and then

6:54

meanwhile it's like the so like

6:56

the insurance commissioner of California right

6:58

he comes out and says like

7:00

oh I'm putting a moratorium on

7:02

insurance agencies dropping anybody for one

7:04

year so first I'm thinking well

7:06

oh you have that power to

7:08

make it so insurance companies can't

7:10

drop people for for reasons like

7:12

that and also second just for

7:14

a year? So by next year,

7:16

you know they're not gonna cover

7:18

anybody, just in case you put

7:20

another moratorium in. Like, you're just

7:22

screwing everybody. Yeah. I mean, does

7:24

this shock you? No, not at

7:26

all, but it's so... It's devastating.

7:29

Blaken. It's so blatant. It's like

7:31

insane. Yeah. So, seriously, like, we

7:33

can't stop thinking about it, and

7:35

it's just something that once again,

7:37

you have to remember, like, the

7:39

people that you see helping each

7:41

other. their that's community right like

7:43

not the government not big companies

7:45

not CEOs your community are your

7:47

neighbors and the people who help

7:49

you get your family and your

7:51

kids and your dogs and your

7:53

you know everything out safe like

7:55

those those are the people you

7:57

need lean on in times like

7:59

this absolutely yeah But speaking of

8:01

Spencer and Heidi Pratt, I wasn't

8:03

saying but like at least Spencer

8:05

and Heidi are getting their flowers

8:07

now I'm sad it took this,

8:09

but I really love them The

8:11

fact like he's been posting on

8:13

tech talk pretty much You know

8:15

multiple times a day, and he's

8:18

like Oh, if you guys get me

8:20

this many likes on this post,

8:22

like I'll get $1,100 from TikTok

8:24

or whatever. And I'm like, yes,

8:27

I want him to get $1,100

8:29

from TikTok. Like, the funniest one

8:31

I saw recently was somebody commented

8:34

and was like, oh, watch Spencer

8:36

Pratt, milk every dollar out of

8:38

losing his house. And he goes,

8:40

yeah, but this is, I think everyone

8:42

should sign a petition to get

8:45

Cassidy to watch. The Hills. I'm

8:47

like, I genuinely am considering watching

8:49

the Hills. I am not a

8:51

huge reality TV fan, but I

8:53

love Spencer and Heidi so much

8:55

in every clip I see of

8:57

them from that show is so

8:59

freaking funny. Well, okay, the thing

9:01

is, is like when, and Heidi,

9:03

I love your music. Yeah, go

9:05

stream Heidi's music. Do help them.

9:07

Go harder, goes hard. Okay. We

9:09

love them and we want you

9:11

to help them. So, go stream

9:13

Heidi, Heidi Protz music, okay. But

9:15

no, I really, like, I, you guys

9:17

know, you know, I've been literally

9:19

begging Cassidy to watch reality television

9:21

for years now. And she's just

9:23

not interested. She's like, I don't

9:25

wanna do it. I hate everybody

9:27

on reality TV. She doesn't hate

9:29

Spencer and Heidi. Not Spidey. Not Spidey.

9:32

I learned that. Yeah, I learned that

9:34

recently. The only thing you do have

9:36

to realize is going into the hills,

9:38

which honestly might not affect you now

9:40

because like back in the day. everyone

9:42

was like so against them like oh my

9:45

god they're evil they're the villains but then

9:47

now we know we know now that they

9:49

were literally like okay the producers

9:51

want us to be crazy so we're gonna

9:54

act crazy because we want to make

9:56

good TV and we want to make

9:58

money yeah and they're both so funny

10:00

it does not it does not shock

10:02

me that they did ridiculous things well

10:04

so did Lauren is that her name

10:06

every clip I've seen of Lauren talking

10:08

to Heidi I'm like wow you are

10:10

the meanest person in the world you

10:12

know what they say she might have

10:14

been the true villain all along and

10:16

where is she even in Laguna Beach

10:18

I all I know she makes jeans

10:20

she'd either I do like them I

10:22

actually do have a pair of her

10:24

sweatpants they're really good things that I

10:26

used to wear all the time before

10:28

I got my new green ones So

10:30

I go through like, I just only

10:32

have one pair of sweatpants at a

10:34

time, basically. Um, I, and that's all

10:36

I wear. I actively wear Lauren Conrad

10:38

jeans. Yeah. Yeah, I do like them.

10:41

But she, but she might have been

10:43

the villain. We don't know. We don't

10:45

know. Who am I to say? The

10:47

whole time. I mean, she literally had

10:49

a problem with everybody. Like in Laguna

10:51

Beach, it was like, she was always

10:53

against somebody. Like her and Chris and

10:55

Chris and Cavillary cavalry were like. she

10:57

becomes best friends with Heidi in the

10:59

hills and then immediately she turns on

11:01

Heidi. Honestly the person who was always

11:03

like the victim quote-unquote in situations is

11:05

usually the villain. Yeah and that was

11:07

her. That's something I've learned like if

11:09

somebody is constantly having like all their

11:11

like some friend mad at them or

11:13

some family member mad at them or

11:15

whatever like you're usually the problem yeah

11:17

for sure and that was 100% her

11:19

like it was always like Lauren versus

11:21

somebody always something yeah which I get

11:23

like reality TV so I'm sure they

11:25

also I mean they were trying to

11:27

make her the star of everything like

11:29

that's why she got the hill spinoff

11:31

Got it they were following her. Oh,

11:33

okay. So they are those shows are

11:35

connected. Yes. Okay. Okay. Yeah. So it's

11:38

Laguna Beach They're in high school and

11:40

then they follow Lauren to Hollywood were

11:42

following around high school kids. Yes. That

11:44

was high school. That is and Kristen

11:46

Cavillari was the youngest of them all

11:48

I don't know who that is. Oh,

11:50

that's the one who dated the Montana

11:52

Boy. Yes. Okay. I was like, I

11:54

know that name, but I don't know.

11:56

She was like, they were all like

11:58

juniors and seniors and she was like

12:00

a friend. in a sophomore. That's like

12:02

honestly actually really creepy and weird that

12:04

they were falling around and like adults

12:06

were probably watching it. I mean luckily

12:08

I was really young. I was like

12:10

13. They're so old. Yeah that's like

12:12

beyond that's like super creepy. I don't

12:14

like super creepy. Yeah I don't like

12:16

that one bit. And then they followed

12:18

Lauren to college in high school in

12:20

Hollywood. Got it that's the hills. And

12:22

that's when it was the hills. Okay

12:24

she was in the Hollywood hills. That

12:26

like gives me the same ick is

12:28

when Ick is when. teenagers like in

12:30

high school go viral online and our

12:32

like influencers in high school I'm like

12:35

ew because you know it's mostly adults

12:37

looking at their shit just genuinely like

12:39

okay you know those tick talks that

12:41

I know you've seen them before where

12:43

it's like nostalgia like videos and it's

12:45

like oh high school prom in 2007

12:47

and it's just like kids like dancing

12:49

yeah I actually mostly see those on

12:51

Twitter but yes I do not a

12:53

cell phone insight I'm like, that's the

12:55

era that we grew up in. Yeah,

12:57

we all had flip phones and you'd

12:59

put it in your bra. Yeah. I

13:01

mean, I don't even think, I don't

13:03

even think, I like looked at my

13:05

cell phone one second during prom. Well,

13:07

there was no reason to look at

13:09

your cell phone because it didn't, the

13:11

pictures it took were shit. Yeah. So

13:13

you didn't even want to take pictures

13:15

with it. And also, everybody that would

13:17

be texting you were there. everybody's sitting

13:19

down on their phone? No, I think

13:21

it's a lot of people videoing on

13:23

their phones, like that kind of stuff.

13:25

I don't know. Actually, like Gen Z

13:27

apparently is very trying to get away

13:30

from that. That's a very like millennial

13:32

thing actually to be like at a

13:34

concert and you can't stop videoing and

13:36

taking pictures and stuff and being in

13:38

the moment. Jesus. You know, I tried,

13:40

like when I go to an event,

13:42

I limit myself, I'm allowed to take

13:44

like two or three. videos and like

13:46

a couple photos if nothing's going on,

13:48

right? Like a Raiders game, I have

13:50

three videos and like three pictures. Yeah.

13:52

I always say like I'm gonna take

13:54

like my favorite songs that I've like

13:56

heard a hundred times like when I

13:58

go to a concert like obviously the

14:00

Jonas Brothers. Yeah like how often do

14:02

you like look back at that and

14:04

actually watch it a lot? Oh really?

14:06

Okay well that's but I mean think

14:08

about it a two-hour concert I'm videoing

14:10

four songs that's not a lot no

14:12

it's just there's like 25 songs. So

14:14

you do that every single time you

14:16

go well how do you choose which

14:18

concert to watch if you're re-watching watching

14:20

them? Okay, and you actually re-watch these?

14:22

Oh, you're so embarrassing. Yeah, that's really

14:24

embarrassing. Okay. That's pretty embarrassing. You can

14:27

shame me for that one. Because the

14:29

sound quality is not good. Just listen

14:31

to it. Or just watch it on

14:33

YouTube. No, because I watch it and

14:35

I remember how I felt in the

14:37

moment. I get all like, oh, that

14:39

was fun. You don't watch back videos

14:41

of like things and you're like, that

14:43

was so fun. No. I don't, I

14:45

really don't. I watch back videos of

14:47

like you and I doing things and

14:49

I'm like, oh my god, that was

14:51

so fun. Oh, I don't do that.

14:53

Oh. Sorry that I like to remember

14:55

good times. I just remember them in

14:57

my brain. Well, I don't. Okay. I

14:59

have a bad memory. Okay. It's a

15:01

big, that's the thing people always say.

15:03

They're like, don't. Don't waste your time

15:05

videoing a whole concert or a whole

15:07

whatever. Just be in the moment because

15:09

how often are you going to look

15:11

back at it? Most people don't. That's

15:13

why I'm shocked that you said all

15:15

the time. I do. I know. That's

15:17

really weird. It is embarrassing. Yeah, I'm

15:19

so sorry. It's fine you already admitted

15:21

it to the fans at home. There's

15:24

gonna be at least there's gonna be

15:26

at least three or four weirdos that'll

15:28

be like Amanda I do that too.

15:30

I hope there's more than three or

15:32

four come forward all of you please

15:34

I won't shame you I will be

15:36

here with you don't message me about

15:38

it because I don't want to hear

15:40

your freaky little thoughts yeah yeah don't

15:42

message her message me yeah but I

15:44

think Honestly, I like more and more

15:46

events are doing the thing where you

15:48

have to put your phone in a

15:50

little bag. I love that. I've been

15:52

to a lot of comedy shows like

15:54

that. Yeah, I think they should do

15:56

that at concerts too. Yeah. Because the

15:58

most annoying thing is when you're at

16:00

a concert or a movie. or a

16:02

show or something, and there's someone in

16:04

front of you videoing, and you're like,

16:06

oh my God. Yeah, no, that's annoying.

16:08

It's so annoying. And I'm like, I

16:10

just think you should have to be

16:12

forced to live in the moment and

16:14

not be able to take your phone

16:17

out. I mean, living in the moment

16:19

is nice. It's very nice. Yeah. That's

16:21

why I love being on do not

16:23

disturb it, but I just have this

16:25

like weird. You have an anxiety

16:28

disorder. I do. You're about

16:30

to describe exactly what an

16:32

anxiety disorder is. I'm afraid

16:35

if I turn my phone off that

16:37

everybody I've ever known is

16:39

going to die and they're not

16:41

going to be able to call

16:43

me. That's what you're about to

16:45

say, right? Yep. Yep. Yep. That's

16:48

what you're about to say, right?

16:50

Yep. That's what I thought. Yep.

16:52

That's what you're about to say,

16:54

right? Yep. Yep. Yep. If I do

16:56

this, guess what? They would still be

16:58

dead. It better be you. Because I

17:00

will kill you. They would still be

17:02

dead. Either way, that's what I'll tell

17:04

you. Whether or not you heard about

17:06

it in two minutes or ten minutes,

17:08

they'd still be dead. Would make

17:11

no difference whatsoever. You're right. I

17:13

would say the only people that

17:15

should probably keep their phone on

17:17

all the time are like surgeons.

17:19

on call surgeons. That's fair. That's phrase

17:21

anatomy style. Grace anatomy style. Speaking

17:23

of which, we're covering the anatomy

17:25

of lies or a lie or lies

17:28

anatomy of lies, which is the

17:30

lady who faked having cancer and

17:32

worked for Grace anatomy, documentary, we're

17:34

covering that on patron right now

17:36

if you guys are interested. Yeah.

17:38

It's a doozy. It is a dozy. Also

17:40

you can listen to us talk about

17:42

Grace anatomy for like 20 minutes. I

17:44

mean, yeah, love Grace anatomy. Love Gray.

17:47

Love it. Love it big fan,

17:49

but yeah, unless you're McDreamy,

17:51

McDeemy, Meredith, Gray Yeah,

17:53

you don't need your phone on.

17:55

You can probably have your phone

17:57

on. Do that disturb? Yeah Yeah

18:00

Because what do I need in the middle?

18:02

I mean, I go to bed at 9 p.m.

18:04

and then I wake up to 700

18:06

text messages from Cassidy telling me she

18:08

watched Wicked. I did watch Wicked and

18:10

had a whole slew of emotions and

18:12

thoughts about it. Well, I had a

18:14

lot of thoughts. I know. I didn't

18:16

even watch it that late. It was

18:18

like 1030. The last text I got

18:21

from you is at like 1.30 a.m.

18:23

The movie is really long. It is

18:25

long. So that's once again when I

18:27

started at like 1030. No I liked

18:29

it. I thought it was I thought

18:31

it was fine. I thought it was good.

18:33

I know I'm incredibly incredibly shook

18:35

to my core about it.

18:37

I'm just like confused because

18:39

so I could watch it I liked it. I

18:42

thought it was good. You know it's It's

18:44

a musical. I realized that the

18:46

thing I find corny about musicals

18:48

is the dancing. I cannot stand

18:50

the dancing. That's fair. It's

18:53

just so off-putting. Unfortunately, it

18:55

is imperative. No, that is not

18:57

true because my favorite musical, they

18:59

don't dance at all. What, Jesus

19:02

Christ Superstar? Yeah, they really don't

19:04

dance very much. There's

19:06

a lot of running through the desert

19:08

You just did like a jazz hand

19:11

though There's one part where he like

19:13

is running running running and he's like

19:15

Jesus Like that but that's that's about

19:17

it, but there's not like choreographed

19:19

fucking pop pop drop in and

19:22

lock it like it's a high

19:24

school musical Love high school musical

19:26

dancing through life like you have

19:28

to dance you're dancing through life.

19:30

That was probably the most fine

19:32

dancing Okay, I'm accepting everything the

19:35

other dancing was the things that

19:37

I didn't like that I am

19:39

you don't even understand how

19:41

incredibly thrilled I am, that

19:43

you even have the goal to

19:45

say, it was a fine movie.

19:47

Well, because, I mean, I love

19:49

movies. And I like, here's the

19:51

thing, that girl, Cynthia Rivo, she

19:54

is so talented. She's so

19:56

talented. Oh my God, I'm

19:58

sorry. The other one? Not

20:00

so much. Agree to disagree.

20:02

Are you on that one? I

20:04

think she's a wonderful singer. I

20:07

think she's got a great voice.

20:09

I think she has no... What

20:11

am I... Magnetism. Like when she's

20:13

on screen, I'm not like... Oh

20:15

my god, but like when

20:17

Cynthia Reville was on screen,

20:20

you're like, you can't look

20:22

away from her. I'm sorry.

20:25

She's wonderful. When she's talented,

20:27

she's singing, she's singing like

20:29

crazy. Her voice, like every

20:32

song. She's a good actress.

20:34

Yeah, no, she's fantastic.

20:36

She's literally fantastic. Yeah,

20:38

like she's fantastic. When

20:41

she does that one

20:43

run. Yeah, no, I mean her voice shivers

20:45

down my spine because I know because

20:47

I've seen stuff about it that she

20:49

sang all of that live. Yeah, that

20:51

is So impressive. She was literally in

20:53

a harness flipping through the air.

20:55

Oh, yeah, singing defying gravity live.

20:57

That's what made me watch the movie.

20:59

I'm not I'm not joking. That's literally like

21:02

I saw that her do that and I

21:04

was like that is skill that I can't

21:06

even like comprehend I need to

21:08

see this. Yeah, but I'm obviously

21:10

not going to just watch the culmination

21:12

of the movie. You have to watch

21:15

the whole, or like, you know, the

21:17

culminating part of the movie. You have

21:19

to watch the whole thing. So I

21:22

watched the whole movie. And once again,

21:24

like, I liked it. I thought she

21:26

was the best part, I thought

21:28

to me. I'm not even gonna, like,

21:30

I'm not even gonna argue. I

21:32

am happy. I am happy. And

21:35

then they were nominated against that,

21:37

that one all of the Golden

21:39

Globes. for like best musical and best

21:41

this and best I'm like what the

21:44

fuck was that what was that I need

21:46

someone to actually tell me what that

21:48

was no yeah I haven't watched the

21:50

movie yet so I'm like maybe there's

21:52

like an inside joke I'm not getting

21:54

but then all of my and you know people

21:56

that I follow that are trans or Mexican

21:58

have all set this is the

22:01

most offensive thing ever so I'm

22:03

like I'm not gonna waste my

22:05

time on it now if the

22:07

people that it's supposed to be

22:09

like about are already saying that

22:11

it's every single thing I've seen

22:13

on on tic-toc or anything has

22:15

been people being like this is

22:18

the worst thing I've ever seen

22:20

who won the Golden Globes for

22:22

best actor and actresses do you

22:24

know I'm pretty sure Zoe Zaldana

22:26

one yes for Amelia Perez yes

22:28

which is so crazy to me's

22:30

so crazy I know the brutalist,

22:32

I haven't seen that one. But

22:35

that one for Best Drama. I've

22:37

never even heard of it. Uh,

22:39

yeah. Honestly, I don't hear, I

22:41

don't know a lot of the

22:43

movies that are usually up. Oh,

22:45

Kieran Kolkin, one Best Supporting. We

22:47

love him. He's so talented. He's

22:49

very talented. Challenger's one for Best

22:52

Original Score. Oh, that's a good

22:54

one. Trent Reznor, obviously, and Atticus

22:56

Ross, they're amazing. They also did

22:58

Gone Girl. Okay. Yeah, Challenger's had

23:00

an amazing score. Yeah, Challenger's had

23:02

an amazing score. Yeah, I haven't

23:04

seen the brutalist. A different man

23:06

is amazing. Never heard of it.

23:09

Oh my gosh. I've literally never

23:11

heard of half of the movies.

23:13

Do you know what show I

23:15

actually do want you to watch

23:17

that I think you would like?

23:19

Uh, oh my gosh, what is

23:21

it called? He was at the

23:23

Golden Globes, that's probably why, because

23:26

he's in some show. It was

23:28

so good, I think you would

23:30

really like it. Oh my god,

23:32

what the fuck was it called?

23:34

Jake? Jellin Hall TV show. Presumed

23:36

innocent. Oh, I've heard about this

23:38

show. I think you would like

23:40

that one. I have no idea

23:43

what it's about, but I've heard

23:45

people talk about it. That one

23:47

was really good. Okay. Highly

23:49

recommend yeah, I watched I've been watching

23:51

because I've been doing too much stuff

23:54

recently So anytime I'm home. I'm just

23:56

like planted right like just on the

23:58

couch movies and TV so a lot

24:01

of movies and a lot of television

24:03

recently. Oh no! No, it's great. I'm

24:05

not complaining at all. It's my favorite

24:07

time of day is when I get

24:10

to sit. And sometimes it's all day.

24:12

I don't know. You never know. Anything

24:14

can happen. It's crazy. I need to

24:17

have a conversation with people. And you

24:19

can't blame COVID and you can't blame

24:21

the writer strikes because it's been like

24:24

this for like the last 10 years.

24:26

TV shows like on TV like grazing

24:28

out of me whatever they have a

24:30

fucking season every single year with fucking

24:33

25 episodes yeah and they crank that

24:35

shit out and it's good and it's

24:37

I love it why the hell is

24:40

it taking you bitches three years to

24:42

make a second season of a show

24:44

with like eight episodes yeah what are

24:46

you up to over there yeah why

24:49

are you so bad at this and

24:51

it makes me forget Everything that I

24:53

seen before and then it makes me

24:56

not watch the show anymore. It happened

24:58

with Ozark, which I loved, right? I

25:00

didn't start Ozark until there was like

25:03

two, already two seasons and then I

25:05

binged at all. And then now they're

25:07

like releasing new seasons and I'm like,

25:09

nah. Because I forgot everything. I've watched

25:12

8,000 other shows since then. Yeah. I

25:14

hate it. Like, I don't understand why

25:16

streaming services do this. So stupid. Pump

25:19

out the content. I know you guys

25:21

have the money. I mean like three

25:23

years from season one to season two

25:25

is insane. No, that's like actually fucking

25:28

stupid. Yeah, that's insane. That's like the

25:30

actors have like actively age. Yeah, like

25:32

I'm sorry to go from like 47

25:35

to 50. Yeah, I'm just a suit.

25:37

I'm just making up ages. Yeah, yeah,

25:39

like come on. No, that's ridiculous. Unless

25:42

it's like. Three years later. Three years

25:44

later. That's like, they're making a new

25:46

season of euphoria right now. I was

25:48

just thinking of euphoria. All those bitches

25:51

are like 30 now. What are they

25:53

talking about? I mean, like when they

25:55

started, they were like 20, 19, 20.

25:58

Why? Why? Why? Why has it been

26:00

so long? Are they still in high

26:02

school? Like, I don't even know. Like.

26:04

I couldn't even tell you. It's literally

26:07

crazy. Yeah. How long ago did that

26:09

show come out? I just don't, what

26:11

are we doing here? As a society.

26:14

I don't know. I don't know. TV

26:16

seasons used to mean something. Yeah, come

26:18

on people. We live in a society.

26:21

Where TV shows just stopped meaning things.

26:23

They stopped meaning things. Do you want

26:25

to hear? I do. Whatever you're about

26:27

to say I'm already. Yeah. That you

26:30

were like kind of partially involved in.

26:32

Just you were in the group chat

26:34

when I was freaking out about it.

26:37

What so okay, so I went to

26:39

go visit my little brother for his

26:41

birthday and flew to Arizona and My

26:43

flight originally was at like 1245 like

26:46

in the afternoon. Oh, right. Mm-hmm. So

26:48

I have this flight 1245 in the

26:50

afternoon the night before a bunch of

26:53

football games on so me and my

26:55

boyfriend go out to go watch the

26:57

football games I get my first drink

26:59

in my hand and I get a

27:02

text, your flight has been canceled. And

27:04

I was like, what the heck are

27:06

we doing here? Where? I don't not

27:09

remember. Maybe I was, was I asleep?

27:11

There's so much, there's so much to

27:13

the story. So I'm looking at this,

27:16

like, is this spam? Am I being

27:18

tricked? What's going on here? So I'm

27:20

looking at my phone. I'm like, what

27:22

the heck, and I tell my boyfriend.

27:25

I'm like, I'm like, I canceled. give

27:27

me a credit like a travel credit

27:29

but like the whole point is I'm

27:32

going I'm only going for two days

27:34

and it's four specifically my little brother's

27:36

birthday so that doesn't exactly help me

27:38

so eventually I just go on the

27:41

website and I have to rebook my

27:43

flight there's only two other flights available

27:45

one of them is at 9 p.m.

27:48

and the other one is at 845.

27:50

I am not a morning person as

27:52

you guys know so I have no

27:55

choice I just have to book the

27:57

845 flight, 845 in the morning, and

27:59

I'm like, well, this is going to

28:01

suck, I'm probably going to be like

28:04

tired or whatever, because we're out drinking

28:06

and eating and whatever. the game. This

28:08

makes so much sense because when you

28:11

texted me the next morning I was

28:13

like I could have sworn you told

28:15

me your flight was at noon. Oh

28:17

yeah no my flight got okay this

28:20

makes so much sense I missed that

28:22

whole part. So do that I get

28:24

end up getting home around like one

28:27

eat some food plug my phone in

28:29

set my alarm for 630 the next

28:31

morning cozy up in bed. Honk shoe

28:34

honk shoe for a few hours. and

28:36

then wake up at 5 a.m. look

28:38

at my phone, see that it says

28:40

5 a.m. and I specifically remember thinking,

28:43

fuck yeah, of another hour and a

28:45

half to sleep, right? Roll over, feels

28:47

like a second. And my boyfriend is

28:50

shaking me awake and goes, babe, what

28:52

time is your flight? I go, oh,

28:54

not till 8.45. And he goes, it's

28:56

8 a.m. Right now. Catapol out of

28:59

bed at a speed you would not

29:01

be able to humanly fathom. Like only

29:03

dogs could hear is like a dog

29:06

whistle shoot out of bed. I look

29:08

at my phone sure enough it is

29:10

8.01 a.m. and I think I'm not

29:13

coming. No, there's no chance I'm gonna

29:15

make it. But I check Uber. It

29:17

says an Uber is four minutes away.

29:19

I order the Uber. I walk over.

29:22

It's enough time to brush my teeth.

29:24

Try to throw a few last things

29:26

into my bag. And I get my

29:29

Uber in my pajamas still, and it

29:31

says that the arrival time to the

29:33

airport is 825, and that is the

29:35

time that my flight starts boarding. Perfect.

29:38

Get to the airport at 825-ish. Get

29:40

out. Go look at security. There's only

29:42

a few people in security line. I'm

29:45

like, hell yeah. Go into security. Walk

29:47

through the thing. I've been randomly selected.

29:49

Of course you have a pat-down. Because

29:52

you are on a watch list. Fake,

29:54

we're really into looking inside of my

29:56

hair. Like a lot. She kept making

29:58

me move. it around and lift it

30:01

and stuff. They're like, what is in

30:03

there? What secrets do you have in

30:05

there? Lady, I know you have something

30:08

hiding in there. And they had to

30:10

like, they asked me, like, do you

30:12

want to go to a room and

30:14

do this privately? Like, I'm gonna have

30:17

to touch your breasts and whatever. And

30:19

I was like, nope, we're fucking doing

30:21

it here because I'm in a rush.

30:24

We're fucking doing it here because I'm

30:26

in a bunch of times. into where

30:28

my gate is and then walk

30:30

directly onto the plane and I'm

30:32

like the third last person on

30:35

the plane Somehow made a

30:37

flight waking up at 8 a.m. And

30:39

we took off at 8.50 insane Who else

30:41

but me I don't know? That's what

30:44

we call luck baby and when

30:46

you get to Arizona you're like

30:48

disheveled. Oh, I was a mess.

30:50

It like actually disoriented me for

30:53

the whole day. You know when

30:55

you get Like startled

30:57

out of sleep. Yeah, it

30:59

kind of just makes you

31:01

feel like you're high or

31:03

drunk or something because you're

31:06

so you're just like on

31:08

autopilot almost I For until

31:10

like 6 p.m. that night

31:12

was so out of it

31:14

32:57

had a rough Christmas since I

32:59

had the flu like Cassidy and

33:02

I was on crutches since I

33:04

dislocated my knee cap. Oh,

33:06

that sounds painful as hell. That

33:09

sounds really painful. That sounds really

33:11

painful. But your podcast

33:16

always keeping me laughing. You really

33:18

have, yeah. And then Christie Kroll bought

33:20

33:22

in my adult years have I been

33:24

in a position where I can give

33:26

holiday gifts without struggling. But this year,

33:29

after a promotion and a holiday bonus,

33:31

I finally got to do so. So

33:33

I'm spreading it out across all of

33:35

the people who make this life a

33:37

whole lot lighter. Because of those people,

33:39

I already have everything I need. Happy

33:41

New Year, if you've ever find yourself

33:43

in Philly, you always have a place

33:45

33:50

bonus. That's super exciting. That's some

33:52

like grown-up shit right there. That

33:54

is so true. I was like,

33:56

I just, I think about it all the time

33:58

34:00

moved out here since I was 21. I

34:02

like get a little bit more like financially

34:04

better like every single year. Yeah. And I

34:07

just like, I was talking to my husband

34:09

about it. I'm like, isn't it so nice

34:11

that like we can afford things? Because he

34:13

was like, oh, are we going to throw out

34:15

the Christmas tree this year? Because I was saying

34:17

I wanted to throw it out because it was

34:20

like broken. Oh, you want a new one? Yeah.

34:22

I was like, you know what? We can throw

34:24

it. We can throw it. Because I am

34:26

financially stable enough to buy a new

34:28

Christmas tree. I can buy a $150

34:30

new Christmas. I can next year because

34:32

I've had that Christmas tree for five

34:34

36:50

Let's get started. Let's freaking

36:52

do it. So today I'm

36:54

going to be talking about

36:56

the very mysterious case of

36:58

Naoki Kano. Okay. Yes. My

37:00

sources today were a video

37:02

on YouTube by a channel

37:04

called Detective X that had

37:06

a lot of like visuals

37:08

to help explain this story.

37:10

There was a Japanese website

37:12

called C-Sawiki.com. Well, it was

37:14

like dot a bunch of

37:16

stuff. I don't know. I

37:18

had to translate it literally

37:21

from Japanese. It was a

37:23

lot happening. G1 who compiled

37:25

a lot of sources together

37:27

like that helped me just

37:29

like figure stuff out and

37:31

of course Wikipedia Okay, I'm

37:33

really excited. I don't know

37:35

what this is. Yes Hopefully,

37:37

I don't know why I

37:39

was like convinced we already

37:41

covered it I'm like I

37:43

must have listened to a

37:45

different podcast cover it at

37:47

one point Because I like

37:49

feel like I remember Listening

37:51

to someone talk about it,

37:53

but it was forever ago.

37:55

So I don't know we'll

37:57

see Did you look it

37:59

up on our? Nope, no,

38:01

so we'll see. Okay. All

38:03

right, so this story takes

38:05

place, or this, not even

38:07

a story, this event takes

38:09

place in Miakoshi, which is

38:11

a village in the Tamara

38:13

District of Japan. It's outside

38:15

of, or inside of Fukushima.

38:17

I'm not really sure if

38:19

that's like the state. I

38:21

don't know how Japanese geography

38:23

works. All right, so it

38:25

is 1989 on February the

38:27

28th, and there is a

38:29

school teacher who is leaving

38:31

work at around six in

38:33

the evening. Most of the

38:35

sources I read just referred

38:37

to her as the school

38:39

teacher. There was one source

38:41

I saw that called her

38:43

Yumi, but I'm not sure.

38:45

So don't quote me on

38:47

that. I'm just gonna call

38:49

her the school teacher. Okay.

38:51

Because I'm not sure. So

38:53

it's winter obviously it's very

38:55

cold outside and she's kind

38:57

of like hustling back to

38:59

her dormitory because there was

39:01

a On-site living facility for

39:03

young teachers at the school

39:05

Okay, and when I say

39:07

village like this is really

39:09

like a village like everybody

39:11

knows each other. It's like

39:13

super super small and these

39:15

dormitories were where most of

39:17

the young teachers lived because

39:19

they're unmarried and stuff like

39:21

that She

39:24

had a single room with like

39:26

an attached bathroom, right? Kind of

39:28

like if you've ever lived in

39:30

a dorm and She heads into

39:32

her room takes off her coat

39:34

and immediately goes into the bathroom.

39:36

She's got a pee super bad

39:38

story in my life Yeah, the

39:40

way her toilet was set up

39:42

was a squatting toilet so that's

39:44

like very popular in Japan so

39:46

basically so you have to like

39:49

squat to go to the bathroom

39:51

which is apparently like the natural

39:53

way We're supposed to go to

39:55

the bathroom. That's like squatty potties

39:57

and stuff exists. I'm sorry. I

39:59

can't I can't squat well then

40:01

maybe avoid Asia I like I

40:03

try I try I try to

40:05

squat but like I would rather

40:07

just sit yeah that's why we

40:09

all have hemorrhoids here I do

40:11

all the time you guys know

40:14

I do I tell you can't

40:16

keep it to herself she's hemorrhoid

40:18

raging I'm hemorrhoid Amanda just call

40:20

me that from now on so

40:22

she walks over to the toilet

40:24

which is a squat toilet like

40:26

I said and she just happens

40:28

to like look down into the

40:30

toilet And she notices something strange

40:32

in there. It's not Australian toilet

40:34

money, is it? No. You're doing

40:36

two toilet toilets in a row.

40:38

I didn't even realize that. What

40:41

is wrong with me? I'm a

40:43

sick-minded individual. Horifying. You got toilet

40:45

on the brain. I got a

40:47

potty mouth. So the way that

40:49

this toilet was set up was

40:51

the squatting toilet. there's obviously like

40:53

a little hole it's on the

40:55

ground right so you literally have

40:57

to like squat over it to

40:59

pee or poop into it and

41:01

then okay it's a hole in

41:03

the ground it's like a it

41:05

kind of looks like if you

41:08

like laid a urinal down on

41:10

the ground okay yeah you probably

41:12

Google like squatting toilet and I

41:14

would show you like the sound

41:16

of this and then there's like

41:18

a pipe down into like a

41:20

septic tank basically that is underneath

41:22

the toilet okay Are you looking

41:24

at photos of squatting toiling? You

41:26

said this was Japan, right? Yeah.

41:28

Oh yeah. Yeah, it looks like

41:30

a urinal laying down on the

41:32

ground. Yes. So you like squat

41:35

over it and go to the

41:37

bath a minute and whatever. I

41:39

hate that. So she looks kind

41:41

of into the toilet and this

41:43

one, like I said, is this

41:45

is back in the... 80s and

41:47

so like that one like that

41:49

you just looked up like flushes

41:51

and stuff this one kind of

41:53

just was more like a porta-potty

41:55

whole type thing down into a

41:57

septic tank okay so she looks

41:59

down into the toilet and she sees

42:02

what looks like a man's shoe in

42:04

the toilet. Okay. She's like, that's

42:06

so strange. Like, why would there be

42:08

a shoe in my private toilet? So

42:10

of course, she's like, okay, I need to

42:12

investigate what's going on

42:14

here. I wouldn't. And the way that

42:16

the toilet worked is it was

42:18

kind of a u-shape where like the

42:21

toilet and then there's the tank

42:23

and then on the outside of the

42:25

building, there's a little, you can open

42:27

like a man's a man's hatch

42:30

and see down into the septic tank.

42:32

Okay. She's like, I gotta go

42:34

on the outside of the building and

42:36

open this hatch. Well, she's just

42:38

confused why there would be a

42:40

shoe in her toilet. So she's

42:43

wondering if somebody had opened the

42:45

hatch and like thrown a bunch

42:47

of stuff down into her septic

42:49

tank. Okay. So she goes out, she

42:51

opens the lid, and she is

42:53

extremely shocked when she sees a

42:55

human leg. This is, don't investigate

42:58

down in the waste. I would

43:00

let it be. Well, she does not do

43:02

that. Thank God. And she runs

43:04

off and tells her the principal

43:06

of the school and anyone who

43:09

will listen, like, hey, I think

43:11

there might be a person down

43:13

in my septic tank under my

43:15

toilet. Oh my God. Of course,

43:17

somebody runs off and also tells

43:20

the police, grabs the police, and

43:22

they also show up on the

43:24

scene. When the police get there,

43:26

They are very confused because

43:28

the entrance to this septic

43:30

tank is about 14 inches,

43:32

so two feet, which is

43:34

much smaller than the average

43:37

person's shoulder width. Yeah, to

43:39

be able to like wiggle

43:41

down into this little hole.

43:43

But they realize they have to

43:45

get this body out to see

43:47

who this person was. Maybe it

43:50

might be a dismembered parts, like

43:52

they don't know, right? At first,

43:54

they try to just grab onto the

43:56

legs and pull the person out, but

43:59

literally the it's too... skinny, they can't

44:01

get them out. So they end

44:03

up having to excavate the entire

44:05

septic tank and cut it in

44:08

half to pull the body out.

44:10

Oh. So they pull the body

44:12

out and the body was bent

44:15

almost in like a fetal position

44:17

with its hands crossed over his

44:19

chest and he was hugging a

44:22

neatly folded shirt. So only wearing

44:24

pants, no shirt, holding the shirt,

44:26

but it's folded in. his on

44:28

his chest with his hands crossing

44:31

it. And the body is like

44:33

fully intact. Yes, fully intact. Okay.

44:35

Seemed to be lying on his

44:38

back with his face looking up

44:40

towards where the toilet hole would

44:42

be. And for some reason, his

44:45

shoe was behind his head. That's

44:47

what and that's what she had

44:49

seen when she looked down into

44:51

the toilet. Okay. He was topless

44:54

and barefoot, obviously. So they have

44:56

to clean. this body off, it's

44:58

covered in excrement, so human feces,

45:01

and also urine, they end up

45:03

having to clean the body twice

45:05

because the smell was so rancid

45:08

and intense that before they could

45:10

perform an autopsy, they needed to

45:12

get the body as clean as

45:14

possible, but there's just like so

45:17

much human feces. Okay. And as

45:19

they start to clean off the

45:21

body, there's like people in this

45:24

village who are coming around to

45:26

like Lookie Lou, and they recognize

45:28

who this person is. Oh my

45:31

gosh. And it is a 26

45:33

year old Nyuki Kano, who was

45:35

very well known in the village.

45:37

He had actually recently been working

45:40

with a local politician, trying to

45:42

get him. trying to get him

45:44

elected. He was known as a

45:47

very eloquent, eloquent speaker. He was

45:49

well liked and respected in the

45:51

community. And so it was very

45:54

shocking to see him found. in

45:56

this situation. So it turns out

45:58

that Niyuki had actually been missing

46:00

since February 24th and was found

46:03

dead inside of the septic tank

46:05

on February 28th. They didn't know

46:07

for sure at first because he

46:10

was not reported missing until the

46:12

26th. But it was because he

46:14

was 26 years old, he did

46:17

live with his parents still, and

46:19

he had told them he was

46:21

gonna go out on his day

46:23

off and do a bunch of

46:26

errands and stuff, and that he

46:28

was gonna go meet up with

46:30

his friends later that night to

46:33

go get a drink or whatever.

46:35

So when he didn't come home

46:37

the first day, they were like,

46:39

oh, he probably. which is out

46:42

with his friends, drank too much,

46:44

stayed at somebody else's house or

46:46

like is having fun, or is

46:49

just busy. He's an adult. It's

46:51

not like when your 16-year-old doesn't

46:53

come home, you know, he's grown

46:56

up, he has a job, he

46:58

works at a nuclear power plant,

47:00

there's like a lot of stuff

47:02

going on here, right? So they're

47:05

like, when they didn't report him

47:07

missing right away, no evidence of

47:09

foul play. There were

47:12

some minor scratches on his elbows

47:14

and knees, but no other signs

47:16

of trauma or of homicide that

47:19

could have taken place. But how

47:21

would he have squeezed his body

47:23

into that tiny guy's a great

47:26

question. Yeah. The coroner did find

47:28

that he most likely died on

47:31

the 26th. So two days before

47:33

he was found. The police did

47:35

an investigation and they pretty quickly

47:38

came upon the opinion that this

47:40

was an accidental death and that

47:42

he had been trying to peep

47:45

on the teacher while she was

47:47

going to the bathroom and had

47:49

died from hypothermia and circulation issues

47:52

because he was like so, I

47:54

don't know. cramped in that situation

47:57

that he died from circulation issues

47:59

and hypothermia when he was trying

48:01

to basically look up the toilet

48:04

at this woman going to the

48:06

bathroom. Okay I don't know anything

48:08

about this man yeah but the

48:11

thought of somebody opening a hatch

48:13

yes somehow jamming their body into

48:16

this two-foot wide pipe yes and

48:18

shimming up it doesn't sound like

48:20

you could do anything else if

48:23

you wanted to peep on somebody

48:25

yeah that's crazy yeah of course

48:27

when this came out people in

48:30

the village were confused and concerned

48:32

his parents and other villagers were

48:34

outraged because they just We're like

48:37

we know him we knew him

48:39

as very reliable very upstanding and

48:42

like as we know that is

48:44

not necessarily mean anything no But

48:46

he had always been like a

48:49

consistent employee at His company which

48:51

was a sales manager of a

48:53

company that supported the nuclear power

48:56

plants and everybody in the village

48:58

knew him to be like very

49:00

sweet very respectful very normal So

49:03

to have him not only die

49:05

in such a disgusting, horrifying way,

49:08

but then also have the police's

49:10

theory be that he was trying

49:12

to... Peep. Peep while laying in...

49:15

To watch a woman go to

49:17

the bath? Like that makes no

49:19

sense. Yeah. This was very very

49:22

upsetting for people. People did not

49:24

like to hear it. And of

49:26

course, you never want to hear

49:29

bad news about someone that you

49:31

love, especially after they've passed away

49:34

and you don't get any other

49:36

kind of information about it, right?

49:38

It's also just a really, really

49:41

bizarre theory to me. Yeah, like

49:43

that's that's going through too much.

49:45

So if you want to take

49:48

a look in the email, you

49:50

can see a diagram of both

49:53

how his body was in the

49:55

septic tank. and the setup of

49:57

the septic tank. It's a very

50:00

small, very cramped area. I don't

50:02

even understand how his body could

50:04

get into that. Yeah. Yeah, so

50:07

this will be on the YouTube

50:09

and also on our Instagram, of

50:11

course. And so basically, obviously he

50:14

could not have gone down the

50:16

toilet. The toilet area was even

50:19

smaller. It's only 20 centimeters. Like

50:21

he would have had, okay, it

50:23

doesn't make sense. Yeah. And he

50:26

would have had to been cramped

50:28

into that position. He would have

50:30

had to gone down the septic

50:33

tank basically on his back head

50:35

first to be able to achieve

50:37

the position where his body was

50:40

found. And also why did he

50:42

take his shirt off and why

50:45

was it so neatly folded against

50:47

his chest when he knew he

50:49

was going to be in a

50:52

septic tank where he's going to

50:54

be surrounded by piss and shit?

50:56

picture of how his body was

50:59

is even more confusing to me.

51:01

Yes, yeah. So his shoulder like

51:04

across his shoulders the width of

51:06

his shoulders was a little over

51:08

16 inches and the diameter of

51:11

the septic tank opening like I

51:13

said was only 14. Okay, so

51:15

it would be extremely difficult and

51:18

also pretty immediately obvious that you

51:20

would have to be jamming yourself

51:22

down into this in a uncomfortable

51:25

and horrible way. And nothing was

51:27

broken on him? Nothing was broken.

51:30

Like I said, he just had

51:32

some light scrapes on his knees

51:34

and on his elbows. Like you

51:37

can't jam yourself into a hole

51:39

that is smaller than you. Yeah.

51:41

And also the posture that he

51:44

was in, like laying there kind

51:46

of in like the fetal position,

51:48

would have been extremely difficult to

51:51

achieve based on the dimensions in

51:53

this. Pipe. Yeah, I'm really confused

51:56

looking at this picture. Yeah, Niyuki's

51:58

father actually tried to recreate the

52:00

scenario with the actual septic tank

52:03

that had been cut out of

52:05

the ground, that had been excavated

52:07

out of the ground, and he

52:10

found personally it was impossible with

52:12

or without clothing on to get

52:15

into the pipe and in the

52:17

position that he was found. So

52:19

not only are we saying that

52:22

this person was so desperate to

52:24

see this lady's bits. to put

52:26

himself in an extremely claustrophobic and

52:29

disgusting scenario, but that he also

52:31

would do it and not have

52:33

any broken bones or anything like

52:36

that. It doesn't make any sense.

52:38

Yeah. And it gets even weirder

52:41

when you find out that he

52:43

was friends with the schoolteacher's boyfriend.

52:45

They knew each other. Okay. And

52:48

actually, Niyuki had helped take down

52:50

a stalker of the school teacher.

52:52

Somebody was harassing her, calling her

52:55

constantly on the phone, and him

52:57

and the boyfriend worked together to

52:59

get like a tape recording of

53:02

it to give it to the

53:04

police and to try and identify

53:07

who was stalking her. So these

53:09

people knew each other decently well.

53:11

Okay. And the police, I'm assuming,

53:14

ruled out that the stalker on

53:16

the voice recording was him. I'm

53:18

assuming, yes. I mean as far

53:21

as like from what I read

53:23

it seemed like he was there

53:26

when some of these calls were

53:28

made. Got it. But the reason

53:30

that that's important that he knew

53:33

her is that he would have

53:35

known that she was out of

53:37

town until the 28th. Okay. So

53:40

she had just gotten back into

53:42

town. She had been visiting her

53:44

family in her hometown. She had

53:47

just gotten back into town on

53:49

the 28th the day where the

53:52

body was found. and they think

53:54

that he died on the 26th.

53:56

Right. So if he knew she

53:59

was going to be gone until

54:01

the 28th, if he wanted

54:03

to look up her skirt or whatever,

54:06

why would he go down there two

54:08

days earlier? I'm sorry, that's the dumbest.

54:10

To lay in human excrement

54:12

and be in this very confined space,

54:15

why would he do that two

54:17

days before she was going to be

54:19

home? I also just think that's a

54:21

really, like, or maybe even four days,

54:23

because if he went down in there

54:26

on the 24th and he was not...

54:28

They said he died on the 26th. Yeah,

54:30

that means he was planning on being

54:32

down there for four days at least

54:34

just to get a little upskirt

54:36

action. Yeah, I don't understand. Yeah,

54:39

I'm okay. I'm very confused. Another thing

54:41

that people look at and

54:43

are confused about how there were

54:45

no traumatic injuries given the size of

54:47

the pipe. That's what I'm saying. So

54:49

whether or not he was forced down

54:52

there or he went down there willingly,

54:54

it seems almost impossible for

54:56

him to get down there. And also,

54:59

why was only one shoe found? So

55:01

literally there was only one

55:03

shoe found and it was

55:05

behind his head, which also

55:08

seems nearly impossible, considering how

55:10

he got down there, if he

55:12

had gotten down there himself, and

55:14

then where's his other shoe? I read

55:16

in one article that there was a

55:18

shoe, a man's shoe found at like

55:20

a creek, like a mile away, but

55:22

then why the hell what his other shoe

55:25

have been that far away from

55:27

his body? I mean, unless whoever

55:29

killed him and stuffed him down

55:31

there discarded it later on. But

55:33

also, I don't understand. I don't understand

55:35

how the fuck his body could have

55:38

gotten into that hole. There's literally, and

55:40

there's no cause of death. Unless his

55:42

like fucking clavicle was broken. Yeah, no.

55:45

Like I don't get it. And there's

55:47

no cause of death like that he

55:49

would have been killed and then put

55:52

down there. So the cause of death

55:54

was like hypothermia, yeah, poor circulation

55:56

basically from being like cramped into

55:59

the position. He was shoved down

56:01

there alive. He had to, I

56:03

mean, he was alive when he

56:05

was down there. Yes, that is

56:07

what the, that is what it

56:09

appears to be. Yes. I am

56:11

bewildered at how he got down

56:13

there. It is very confusing. Because,

56:15

I mean, my shoulder, I have

56:17

wide fucking shoulders. I couldn't get

56:19

through it. Two foot hole yeah,

56:21

I mean he was a little

56:24

dude. He was only like five

56:26

seven or whatever But he like

56:28

I said like he measured across

56:30

over six nine five seven Yeah,

56:32

and like he measured across his

56:34

shoulders over 16 inches and the

56:36

hole was only 14 inches. Yeah,

56:38

and I understand you can like

56:40

Hunch and like whatever right to

56:42

like get smaller places then once

56:44

you're in the hole right like

56:46

Even if you have like that

56:48

one inch, once you're in the

56:50

hole, you're not gonna fucking shim

56:52

your body. You're not. You can't.

56:55

You can't. I'm sorry. And he

56:57

had to get down 60 centimeters

56:59

to be able to get into

57:01

the larger part of the septic

57:03

tank and even that is very

57:05

small. He had to have been

57:07

curled up to even fit in

57:09

there. And then I'm sorry. Oh,

57:11

he took his shirt off to

57:13

get. to shimmy down the pipe

57:15

and then how did he fold

57:17

it neatly? And had it with

57:19

his, yeah, yeah, arms cross. How

57:21

would that even happen? Very confusing.

57:23

And even weirder, his car was

57:26

found parked in a lot near

57:28

the dorms. His keys were still

57:30

in the ignition and his door

57:32

was unlocked, which led, you know,

57:34

people who don't believe the police's

57:36

theory to think that. He was

57:38

not planning on being there very

57:40

long, and he was just meeting

57:42

someone really quick or stopping by

57:44

somewhere really quickly, because why else

57:46

would he leave his keys in

57:48

the ignition and his car unlocked?

57:50

Where's the boyfriend? I don't know.

57:52

They never mention him? No. Huh?

57:54

Intra- Yeah. But yeah, she was

57:57

back in her hometown from the

57:59

24th to the night of the

58:01

27th, and then she discovered his

58:03

body on the 28th. So once

58:05

again, this is very strange. And

58:07

the last time he was seen

58:09

was at 10 in the morning

58:11

on the 24th by his dad.

58:13

He was like, hey, I'm going

58:15

to go run some errands and

58:17

I'm going to go out with

58:19

some friends tonight. See you later.

58:21

And his dad was like, bye.

58:23

Oh, who had access to her

58:25

apartment, probably her boyfriend. Yeah. And

58:28

was friends with him. Well, but

58:30

the septic tank entrance was on

58:32

the outside of the dormitory. What

58:34

if it got, what if they

58:36

pushed him in through the toilet?

58:38

The toilet's even smaller 20 centimeters?

58:40

Oh, yeah, it's true. It's so,

58:42

I don't even think his head

58:44

would fit through that. That's true.

58:46

I am seeing that here, yes.

58:48

Yeah. Because that was the thing.

58:50

They were like, like, like, he

58:52

had to have to have to

58:54

have come in through come in

58:56

through this, It doesn't make any

58:59

sense, Cassie. It doesn't make any

59:01

sense. There's no way. How big

59:03

is my head across? I don't

59:05

even know. Somebody bring out the

59:07

tape measurer. You got a little

59:09

head. I got a big ass

59:11

head. Believe me, I know. Every

59:13

time I watch one of these

59:15

fucking video episodes, I'm like, somebody

59:17

shrink my giant ass. Noggin. Geez,

59:19

Louise. That like all of it

59:21

is confusing if he was if

59:23

he knew that she was going

59:25

to be out of town because

59:27

everyone's like okay He would have

59:30

known because once again small town

59:32

him and the boyfriend were Relatively

59:34

good friends. They had to have

59:36

been really good friends if he

59:38

was the one helping helping him.

59:40

Yeah, and then the cars right

59:42

there like it's all very confusing,

59:44

but there are obviously some conspiracy

59:46

theories or not even conspiracy just

59:48

some theories that are different than

59:50

what the police Came the conclusion

59:52

the police came to well, let's

59:54

hear him so some people Think

59:56

that the teacher is the one

59:58

who murdered him Okay,

1:00:01

and why? Maybe they were having

1:00:03

an affair or he had come

1:00:05

on to her or something had

1:00:07

happened and he had she had

1:00:09

killed him and put him down

1:00:11

there because some people thought it

1:00:14

was strange that she even would

1:00:16

see the shoe down at the

1:00:18

shoe down at the And also

1:00:20

why instead of calling the police

1:00:22

or going to talk to a

1:00:24

maintenance person, would she have just

1:00:27

gone and opened the septic tank

1:00:29

lid herself? That is fucking weird.

1:00:31

To discover the body. Yeah, that's

1:00:33

fucking weird. I do agree. So

1:00:35

some people think that maybe there

1:00:37

was an accidental death and she

1:00:39

put him down there or maybe

1:00:42

something happened between her and him

1:00:44

and her or her and her

1:00:46

boyfriend put him down there. And

1:00:48

I think the boyfriend's involved, I

1:00:50

don't know why. I don't know

1:00:52

why. That's oh that's your theory.

1:00:55

Another theory is so a month

1:00:57

before his death there was an

1:00:59

incident in the Fukushima Dachi nuclear

1:01:01

power plant where a welded joint

1:01:03

in a circulating pump gave way

1:01:05

and there was a massive meltdown

1:01:08

basically and they had to shut

1:01:10

down reactor number three. So the

1:01:12

person who was in charge of

1:01:14

this reactor was a coworker. of

1:01:16

Nayuki's and he actually ended up

1:01:18

completing suicide not long after because

1:01:21

of his involvement in this disaster.

1:01:23

Okay, so some people think that

1:01:25

maybe Nayuki also could have been

1:01:27

involved and he did this on

1:01:29

purpose to take his own life

1:01:31

and then there's some other people

1:01:34

because 10 days before Nakey's death

1:01:36

there was an election for the

1:01:38

village chief. and he had actually

1:01:40

lobbied for one of the And

1:01:42

the reason he had done that

1:01:44

is first of all, he was

1:01:47

known to be an extremely charismatic

1:01:49

and well-spoken guy, but he worked

1:01:51

with nuclear power plants and basically

1:01:53

the two people who were going

1:01:55

up against each other. One was

1:01:57

anti-nuclear power plant and the other

1:02:00

one was pro. And so he

1:02:02

was speaking for the pro-nuclear power

1:02:04

plant supporting them. And so he

1:02:06

goes out there, he ends up

1:02:08

campaigning for this guy and he

1:02:10

ends up winning. Some people in

1:02:13

the village were spreading rumors that

1:02:15

Nayuki might have accidentally uncovered a

1:02:17

scandal, like a government scandal, or

1:02:19

pissed off the wrong person, and

1:02:21

then was killed and his body

1:02:23

was staged this way in an

1:02:26

attempt to further embarrass him and

1:02:28

discredit his name after death. an

1:02:30

instrumental part in this election win

1:02:32

for the opposition. So they're like

1:02:34

trying to make it seem like

1:02:36

he was a peeping Tom because

1:02:39

that's like so embarrassing right? I

1:02:41

don't know still the weirdest like

1:02:43

thing to say oh he he

1:02:45

really wanted to look up this

1:02:47

girl's skirt so he climbed into

1:02:49

this fucking hole that is too

1:02:52

small for him in pee and

1:02:54

poo yeah just to get a

1:02:56

glimpse of her vagina like that's

1:02:58

weird what I was like wishing

1:03:00

I would find I was trying

1:03:02

to and I couldn't to see

1:03:05

if there was any sort of

1:03:07

like toxicology report done on him

1:03:09

like imagine if he was like

1:03:11

really drunk or something yeah and

1:03:13

was like oh I'm gonna call

1:03:15

in here look at her vagina

1:03:18

whatever you know what I mean

1:03:20

don't think he could have fit

1:03:22

in there yeah it's just all

1:03:24

very strange even regardless of him

1:03:26

getting in there himself I don't

1:03:28

understand how someone could have put

1:03:30

him in there Without yeah, without

1:03:33

breaking something without breaking a clavicle

1:03:35

or like some I don't know

1:03:37

something up here. I don't I

1:03:39

just don't I don't get it.

1:03:41

I don't get how he could

1:03:43

have fit in there. Yeah. And

1:03:46

then got into that position that

1:03:48

he's in where his legs are

1:03:50

up and he's kind of in

1:03:52

like a fetal position but on

1:03:54

his back. Even if somebody shoved

1:03:56

him down there, they would have

1:03:59

had to have. It would have

1:04:01

been all haphazard. Like how would

1:04:03

they have gotten him into that

1:04:05

position? How would they have gotten

1:04:07

his arms like Chris crossed with

1:04:09

the shirt with the shirt? And

1:04:12

why was his other shoe like

1:04:14

miles away? Accidentally booped in there.

1:04:16

Yeah, that's what I'm saying. Yeah,

1:04:18

it doesn't it does not make

1:04:20

sense that he or anyone else

1:04:22

could have gotten him down there.

1:04:25

Yeah. Like physically pushed him down

1:04:27

there. I don't get it. Yeah.

1:04:29

No, it's very weird. It's very

1:04:31

weird. And like once again, it

1:04:33

was very it was super cold.

1:04:35

It's winter and he was completely

1:04:38

shirt shirt shirt shirt shirt shirtless.

1:04:40

Yeah, but he had his pants

1:04:42

on and no shoes and no

1:04:44

shoes. But then one shoe was

1:04:46

behind his And like how did

1:04:48

that get there? I don't know.

1:04:51

So the official story from the

1:04:53

police is that he had an

1:04:55

accidental death from hypothermia after he

1:04:57

crawled into the septic tank to

1:04:59

be a peeping Tom. This was

1:05:01

something obviously like I said like

1:05:04

the village and his parents completely

1:05:06

do not accept. There is unfortunately

1:05:08

a really bad like upskirt culture

1:05:10

in Japan. I don't know if

1:05:12

you know this bit. on phones

1:05:14

in Japan, you have to have

1:05:17

the shutter noise on because there's

1:05:19

so many cases of people putting

1:05:21

their phones under women's skirts and

1:05:23

taking pictures. I did not know

1:05:25

that. Yeah. But once again, I

1:05:27

listen, I don't know. I don't

1:05:30

know this person. I don't know

1:05:32

how far someone would go to

1:05:34

look under someone's skirt. Yeah. But

1:05:36

that just seems like a lot

1:05:38

of work. No. I agree. Yeah,

1:05:40

and disgusting work. Yeah, and also

1:05:43

once again, he knew her, he

1:05:45

knew she was not even home.

1:05:47

Yeah, that's the part to me.

1:05:49

Like if you really thought that

1:05:51

you were gonna do that, why

1:05:53

would you do it four days

1:05:56

before, like three and a half

1:05:58

days or whatever, before she was

1:06:00

even gonna be home? I wish

1:06:02

I would have seen if there

1:06:04

was a toxicology report because I

1:06:06

could understand, not even not understand,

1:06:09

but. if somebody's like really really

1:06:11

drunk and they've I've always I've

1:06:13

always I've always wanted to do

1:06:15

this I know this is such

1:06:17

a good idea I'm gonna do

1:06:19

this dumb weird thing and then

1:06:22

he just contorted and smushed himself

1:06:24

up as much as he could

1:06:26

and shoved himself down there and

1:06:28

then by the time he it

1:06:30

was too late it was too

1:06:32

late because he couldn't even turn

1:06:34

around. There was not enough room

1:06:37

in there for him to literally

1:06:39

turn around to get back up

1:06:41

the pipe. He literally physically couldn't.

1:06:43

I mean, I guess if he

1:06:45

was like a secret contortionist. Well,

1:06:47

just I feel like people go

1:06:50

spurlunking. I was going to say

1:06:52

people really can like smush themselves

1:06:54

down. Yeah. I mean, you've covered

1:06:56

stories of people in caving disasters

1:06:58

that somehow fit through weird small

1:07:00

holes. Yeah. So I guess that's

1:07:03

possible. I don't know. And allegedly

1:07:05

he was like a pretty petite

1:07:07

guy. Yeah. But I don't know.

1:07:09

It seems so, it just seems

1:07:11

so weird. Like, yeah, I'm gonna

1:07:13

sit in this pee and poo

1:07:16

just to catch a glimpse up

1:07:18

someone's skirt. Up my friend's girlfriend's

1:07:20

skirt. Yeah. I don't know. It

1:07:22

just seems weird. Yeah. I mean

1:07:24

you'd have to be like a

1:07:26

very sick individual because you also

1:07:29

obviously like which the P and

1:07:31

P was going to be all

1:07:33

over you while you're down there

1:07:35

and then also when they go

1:07:37

you're gonna that's what you're gonna

1:07:39

be seeing and it's gonna fall

1:07:42

on you which I don't know

1:07:44

him I don't know maybe is

1:07:46

I don't know but the whole

1:07:48

way he was positioned the shirt

1:07:50

her being out of town to

1:07:52

me is the weirdest yeah where

1:07:55

he was planning on being down

1:07:57

there in the P and Poop

1:07:59

for three days yeah but of

1:08:01

a schoolteacher finding a man in

1:08:03

her toilet and Nayuki Kano remains

1:08:05

a mystery. That's, yeah, that is.

1:08:08

Oh, so here's another picture of

1:08:10

like the top of the, that's

1:08:12

the pipe. Can you imagine trying

1:08:14

to? fit yourself through that? No,

1:08:16

but I'm also super claustrophobic and

1:08:18

that's why I mean me too.

1:08:21

I wish there was some sort

1:08:23

of your one boob wouldn't even

1:08:25

go in that. Well that's why

1:08:27

I wish there was some sort

1:08:29

of toxicology report. Yeah. Because I

1:08:31

think that's what that's when you

1:08:34

when people do shit like that

1:08:36

because they're higher drunk and they

1:08:38

think like this is a good

1:08:40

idea. You're welcome. Wild ride. You

1:08:42

us all. Oh. We shall see.

1:09:53

Okay. And his name is lawn

1:09:55

chair Larry. Oh. You know I

1:09:58

needed some joy today. Listen I

1:10:00

feel it. Yeah Amanda literally tells

1:10:02

me I was gonna cover this

1:10:04

disappearance and whatever and she's like

1:10:07

I literally just I'm so consumed

1:10:09

by the fires and stuff like

1:10:11

I can't do anything depressing. I

1:10:13

can't I couldn't. I couldn't. I

1:10:16

literally I had a whole story

1:10:18

like picked out and that I

1:10:20

was like looking at and researching.

1:10:22

I was like I do that

1:10:25

all the time where I'm like.

1:10:27

Oh, my head is just, I

1:10:29

can't, yeah, I mean if you're

1:10:31

in a certain, if you're in

1:10:33

a certain like state of mind,

1:10:36

it's just impossible. So we're talking

1:10:38

about lawn chair Larry today, okay?

1:10:40

You heard it here first. My

1:10:42

sources were plain and pilot mag.com,

1:10:45

the New Yorker by George Plimpton,

1:10:47

medium. Found this episode because I

1:10:49

was watching drunk history and I

1:10:51

fucking love drunk history and they

1:10:54

covered this and it was too

1:10:56

good I would be so good

1:10:58

on drunk history if only I

1:11:00

Am a moron and I think

1:11:03

I'd be really good on drunk

1:11:05

history like it be so funny

1:11:07

get us on there Is it

1:11:09

still happening? I don't know it

1:11:11

would be so fun. I want

1:11:14

to be on drunk history. I

1:11:16

want to be on fucking hot

1:11:18

ones and guess what I? Can

1:11:20

barely be on my own YouTube

1:11:23

channel. So true. So you're right.

1:11:25

I don't know what where you're

1:11:27

getting this wild hair of your

1:11:29

ass. I don't know either And

1:11:32

then Wikipedia of course. Yes. Okay.

1:11:34

So Lawrence Richard Walters aka Larry

1:11:36

he had always been fascinated by

1:11:38

the sky and flying and just

1:11:41

the idea of like things floating

1:11:43

up there in the sky This

1:11:45

was always something he was interested

1:11:47

in when he was about eight

1:11:49

or nine years old His family

1:11:52

took him to Disneyland and when

1:11:54

he walked in he said the

1:11:56

first thing that he saw Was

1:11:58

a lady standing right? there on

1:12:01

Main Street holding a, you know,

1:12:03

to quote him, a zillion Mickey

1:12:05

Mouse balloons. Ah, yeah. And

1:12:07

he's like, wow. I bet if I

1:12:09

could get enough of those giant

1:12:12

balloons, I could get lifted

1:12:14

straight up into the sky. Why

1:12:16

not, buddy? How cool would that

1:12:19

be. Why not? And that was

1:12:21

like a pivotal moment in

1:12:23

Larry's life where he was

1:12:26

like, holy shit. I need to

1:12:28

fly. I need to fly. Like I

1:12:30

need to be in the sky. RIP, lawn

1:12:32

chair Larry, you would have loved up. You

1:12:35

would have loved up. Oh my I love

1:12:37

up. So yeah, so that was like

1:12:39

really a pivotal moment in

1:12:41

Larry's life where he's like, get me

1:12:43

up in the sky. I need to be

1:12:45

up there. I need to like fly or

1:12:48

something. And this is what

1:12:50

developed his dream to become

1:12:52

a pilot in the Air Force. So

1:12:54

when Larry was about 13, he

1:12:56

was in an army naval surplus

1:12:58

store. And he's kind of

1:13:00

just like bopping around. And

1:13:02

he sees these giant weather

1:13:05

balloons hanging from the ceiling.

1:13:07

And he's like, damn, fuck those

1:13:09

Mickey Mouse pansy ass balloons that

1:13:11

I saw when I was eight.

1:13:13

These things are way bigger. If

1:13:15

I'm gonna somehow get up in

1:13:17

the sky, these are the fucking

1:13:20

suckers I'm gonna use. Absolutely.

1:13:22

Look at them. Hell yeah, Larry. So

1:13:25

Larry was also really into science

1:13:27

at school and he had actually

1:13:29

he had actually been working on

1:13:32

a science project Where he made

1:13:34

his own hydrogen generators and inflated

1:13:36

like these little balloons with it

1:13:38

and for this project He was

1:13:40

trying to see how long the

1:13:43

hydrogen inside the balloons would keep

1:13:45

them up in the sky before

1:13:47

they came Like floating back down. This

1:13:49

guy's a real one balloon trick phony,

1:13:51

isn't he? He really likes balloons.

1:13:54

Okay? Hyper fixation. Larry,

1:13:56

I've got some news for you

1:13:59

about autism. Well, he's dead, so

1:14:01

you wouldn't know. R.P. Lear, you

1:14:03

would have loved online autism tests.

1:14:05

You would have loved up, and

1:14:07

you would have loved these tests.

1:14:09

So he would attach notes to

1:14:11

the balloons and send them up

1:14:13

into the sky, and he would

1:14:16

time out how long it took

1:14:18

them to deflate and come back

1:14:20

down. But unfortunately,

1:14:22

the balloons never came down, or

1:14:24

at least like they didn't. come

1:14:26

down anywhere near where he was

1:14:28

to ever have seen them again.

1:14:30

So he got a D on

1:14:32

his project. Wow. Yeah, it's really

1:14:35

sad. R. I. P. Larry, you

1:14:37

would have loved Apple air tags.

1:14:39

But don't fret, guys. That

1:14:41

did not deter young Larry

1:14:43

to keep working towards his

1:14:45

goal in life. So he would

1:14:47

be sitting in his garage at

1:14:50

his house. He's making his own

1:14:52

rocket fuel. And every time he

1:14:54

like tries to do something, it's

1:14:56

always like blowing up on him

1:14:58

or catching fire. And his mom

1:15:00

is like, what are you doing,

1:15:02

Larry? Like she's very worried about

1:15:04

his well-being, very concerned about where

1:15:06

he's going in life. Honestly, I

1:15:08

get it. I've told this story

1:15:10

on the podcast before, when you have kind

1:15:12

of a smart, but you're still

1:15:14

a kid, so you're dumbest shit. You

1:15:17

just like accidentally create bombs.

1:15:19

Sometimes you do. I mean, I didn't, but

1:15:21

like, that's just because I wasn't smart

1:15:23

in school. But you did? Yes.

1:15:25

Yeah. Yeah. So after high school,

1:15:27

Larry decides that he's going

1:15:30

to go for his dream job

1:15:32

of becoming a pilot in the

1:15:34

Air Force. He's like so excited.

1:15:36

So he has to go through

1:15:38

all the testing and stuff to

1:15:41

even like be able to do

1:15:43

that. And when he gets tested,

1:15:45

they discovered that he had really

1:15:47

bad eyesight. Oh. And they're like,

1:15:49

Larry. Buddy, you can't be a

1:15:51

pilot in the Air Force with

1:15:53

bad eyesight. It's like when people

1:15:55

find out that you can't be

1:15:57

color blind. Yeah. Yeah. And he's like.

1:16:00

Well, fuck, like that was my

1:16:02

dream. What am I supposed to

1:16:04

do now? So Larry ends up

1:16:06

becoming a truck driver, which to

1:16:08

me is really funny that you

1:16:10

can't like drive a plane with

1:16:12

bad eyesight, but they're like, yeah,

1:16:14

you can drive this like huge

1:16:16

truck that would kill way more

1:16:18

people. A highway where like cars

1:16:20

are like way more dangerous and

1:16:22

people get to way more accidents,

1:16:24

babies in strollers and stuff. Yeah,

1:16:26

but it's fine. He could drive

1:16:28

a truck. So

1:16:31

now it's 1982. Larry is 33

1:16:33

years old. He's a trucker and

1:16:35

he has this girlfriend named Carol

1:16:38

and he is a seemingly happy

1:16:40

guy But he just can't get

1:16:42

the idea of flying out of

1:16:44

his mind. He's like this is

1:16:47

my dream and By golly, I'm

1:16:49

going to accomplish my dream if

1:16:51

it's the last thing I do.

1:16:54

It's like a dog with a

1:16:56

bone. That's right So Larry talks

1:16:58

to Carol his girlfriend and he's

1:17:00

like Babe, remember 10 years ago

1:17:03

when we met and we started

1:17:05

dating? But he's like, okay, babe.

1:17:07

So like I told you about

1:17:10

this dream I have of like

1:17:12

flying and floating in the sky,

1:17:14

right? Well, what I'm gonna do

1:17:16

is I'm gonna sit in a

1:17:19

chair, I'm gonna attach balloons to

1:17:21

it, and float myself over the

1:17:23

Mojave desert. And she's like, no,

1:17:26

you're not. And he's like, no,

1:17:28

literally this is my dream in

1:17:30

life. So you're either with me

1:17:32

or you're out. Yeah, you better

1:17:35

start supporting me. So after a

1:17:37

minute, Carol's like, okay, yeah, let's

1:17:39

get you floating in the sky,

1:17:42

babe. I love you, I support

1:17:44

you, I will support anything you

1:17:46

do. He never just thought to

1:17:48

try like hang gliding. No, no.

1:17:51

But he has the full support

1:17:53

of his girlfriend. I mean, this

1:17:55

is what I'm imagining that she

1:17:58

saying, she's like, baby, I love

1:18:00

you, I love you, I love

1:18:02

you, I love you so much,

1:18:04

I love you so much, I

1:18:07

love you so much. I'll do

1:18:09

anything for you. I will die

1:18:11

for you. We're going to get

1:18:14

you in that damn sky. We're

1:18:16

going to get you in that

1:18:18

sky. But she did, you know,

1:18:20

she did. did actually say to

1:18:23

him though, wear a helmet. No,

1:18:25

but she said, I want you

1:18:27

to just like do this and

1:18:29

get it over with and get

1:18:32

it out of your system so

1:18:34

you never bother me about this

1:18:36

again. That sounds, yeah, it sounds

1:18:39

about right. Yeah. Wife material. Right?

1:18:41

Wife her up, Larry. So Carol

1:18:43

ends up footing the bill for

1:18:45

Larry's whole endeavor of what he

1:18:48

wants to do. The Tiktok feminists

1:18:50

would have a field day. Rest

1:18:52

and piece, Larry, the Tiktok feminists

1:18:55

would hate you. Would have hated

1:18:57

you. It's okay, they hate me

1:18:59

too. Carol and Larry, they go

1:19:01

to the military supply store and

1:19:04

they are looking to buy 45,

1:19:06

8-foot weather balloons. Unfortunately, that is

1:19:08

a lot. But unfortunately, little did

1:19:11

they know, you can't just go

1:19:13

into like a military supply store

1:19:15

and buy things if you're not

1:19:17

in the military. Well, what the

1:19:20

fuck, I thought this was America.

1:19:22

America! Yeah! What, I can get

1:19:24

an AK-47, but I can't get

1:19:27

a fucking, I can't get a

1:19:29

fucking weather balloon? Well, don't worry.

1:19:31

This is America, thank God. And

1:19:33

you know what they ended up

1:19:36

saying? They said, excuse me, sir.

1:19:38

We work for a studio. And

1:19:40

the guy's like, yeah, why didn't

1:19:43

you just say that earlier? Duh.

1:19:45

Of course you are. Our policy

1:19:47

is only military personnel and people

1:19:49

who make commercials. And Hollywood. Yeah.

1:19:52

Hello. Capitalism, baby. That's America. Okay?

1:19:54

It's bringing a tear to my

1:19:56

eye. Feeling so patriotic. Feeling like

1:19:58

that nine-year-old girl who got the

1:20:01

American flag tattoo. Do you not

1:20:03

hear about that? I did. I

1:20:05

did. Just Google that. That's America,

1:20:08

fuck yeah, so they get the

1:20:10

balloons because they're like the guys

1:20:12

like oh, you're making a TV

1:20:14

commercial, fuck yeah, here you go.

1:20:17

Say no more. Here's all the

1:20:19

balloons you want. Then they go

1:20:21

to Sears and they find the

1:20:24

most perfect lawn chair with waffle

1:20:26

iron webbing in the seat, aluminum

1:20:28

armrests, and it's on sale for

1:20:30

only $109. For a lawn chair?

1:20:33

What the heck's going on in

1:20:35

the 80s. Larry even said. that

1:20:37

this launcher was so great that

1:20:40

his mom went back and bought

1:20:42

two more because they were on

1:20:44

sale. So, I gotta get my

1:20:46

hands on one of these. That's

1:20:49

a pretty good lawn chair. That's

1:20:51

a pretty dang dang gong. It's

1:20:53

nice and sturdy. America? Fuck yeah.

1:20:56

It's probably made in China. If

1:20:58

I know anything about America. Probably.

1:21:00

So now Carol, even though she

1:21:02

was super supportive of her man's

1:21:05

crazy plan. She still wanted to

1:21:07

make sure he was doing this

1:21:09

safely, right? So she's like, hey,

1:21:12

before you get up in the

1:21:14

sky on your lawn chair, no

1:21:16

helmet, actually still, helmet just feels

1:21:18

intuitive. Unfortunately, there was no helmet

1:21:21

at all in the entire process.

1:21:23

But she did make him go

1:21:25

to the Elsinore Flight School in

1:21:28

Paris, California, and learn how to

1:21:30

jump with a parachute. Okay, that

1:21:32

makes sense. So she's like, you

1:21:34

gotta learn how to jump at

1:21:37

this parachute. So he does it,

1:21:39

and then they end up buying

1:21:41

a parachute for $900, and they're

1:21:43

like, she's like, you're gonna take

1:21:46

this on the lawn chair with

1:21:48

you. This is getting pricey. Yeah,

1:21:50

and she's footing the bell for

1:21:53

this whole thing. What does she

1:21:55

do for work? I don't know,

1:21:57

couldn't tell you ask? So finally.

1:21:59

On July 2nd, 1982, Larry Walter,

1:22:02

after months of preparation, he's finally

1:22:04

going to launch his plan in

1:22:06

action and rise up in to

1:22:09

the sky. So they're in Carroll's

1:22:11

mother's backyard in San Pedro, California.

1:22:13

Hey, local. Hey. He fills 42

1:22:15

to 43, depending on who he

1:22:18

asked, balloons with Helium. Okay. And

1:22:20

attached them all to his lawn

1:22:22

chair. Now they did this through

1:22:25

a 24-hour period, so they started

1:22:27

the day before. And when they

1:22:29

were... Doing this, I guess like

1:22:31

the cops were called at one

1:22:34

point and they once again said,

1:22:36

this is for a commercial shoot

1:22:38

and this is America. So the

1:22:41

cop said, absolutely, they said, you're

1:22:43

trying to sell something to poor

1:22:45

people. Yeah, they said, do whatever

1:22:47

you need to do, buddy. They

1:22:50

said, sir, you're doing the Lord's

1:22:52

work. Yeah, thank God. So they

1:22:54

get all of the balloons blown

1:22:57

up, attach them to the chair.

1:22:59

He puts on his parachute. He

1:23:01

gets his two-way radio, a hand

1:23:03

compass, a flashlight, eight plastic bottles

1:23:06

of water that were placed on

1:23:08

the sides of the chair for

1:23:10

like stability. Not for drinking, for

1:23:13

stability. You want to know what

1:23:15

he got to drink? Beer? Two

1:23:17

liters of Coca-Cola. Oh, what a

1:23:19

fucking gee, okay. A package of

1:23:22

beef jerky. Because you

1:23:24

know he might get hungry. No,

1:23:26

he's just like me on a

1:23:28

road trip a roadmap of California

1:23:30

There we go. He had yeah

1:23:32

and a beavy gun for popping

1:23:34

the balloons when it was time

1:23:36

to descend Because obviously that's how

1:23:38

he's going to get down right?

1:23:40

That's the only way. Oh my

1:23:42

god When he was just about

1:23:44

to take off his friend is

1:23:46

like wait Don't leave yet and

1:23:48

he runs down the street to

1:23:50

the marine supply store And he

1:23:52

grabs a life jacket just in

1:23:54

case something were to happen to

1:23:56

Larry and he's like taken out

1:23:58

to see. So this delays Larry's

1:24:01

flight for 45 minutes. Yeah, because

1:24:03

what if he accidentally like the

1:24:05

winds start taking him towards like

1:24:07

Catalina? You never know. You don't

1:24:09

know. Literally don't know what can

1:24:11

happen. But finally at 1030 a.m.

1:24:13

Larry gets into the lawn chair,

1:24:15

which he dubbed the inspiration. Mm-hmm.

1:24:17

So the whole idea was that

1:24:19

he was going to be lifted

1:24:21

about a hundred feet into the

1:24:23

air and the lawn chair was

1:24:25

going to be attached to his

1:24:27

friend's 1962 Chevrolet Bonneville car by

1:24:29

a giant rope. Oh to kind

1:24:31

of like direct it? Yeah, okay.

1:24:33

So he wasn't gonna like be...

1:24:35

He's not just loose. Well he

1:24:37

was gonna be loose eventually but

1:24:39

well what if you went too

1:24:41

high and went into the... went

1:24:43

into space? So... I guess that's

1:24:46

what the BB guns for. That

1:24:48

is what the BB gun is

1:24:50

for, yes. But Larry had this

1:24:52

all down to a science. He

1:24:54

claims that he had everything under

1:24:56

control. He knew exactly what he

1:24:58

was doing and that the amount

1:25:00

of balloons was only going to

1:25:02

take him about 7 to 8,000

1:25:04

feet into the air. Oh my

1:25:06

God, that's so awful. That's really

1:25:08

high, I know. The rope thing

1:25:10

was for he wanted to like

1:25:12

be lifted into the air. I'm

1:25:14

assuming the car was going to

1:25:16

drive like maybe to a different

1:25:18

location so there's not like... neighborhoods

1:25:20

and houses before he kind of

1:25:22

like goes off on his own

1:25:24

and like wants to make sure

1:25:26

everything is situated and working for

1:25:28

him. Yeah and probably to avoid

1:25:31

because San Pedro is right on

1:25:33

the water to avoid going over

1:25:35

the ocean. Correct. But none of

1:25:37

these people expected how fast Larry

1:25:39

would start to rise into the

1:25:41

sky once he began lift off.

1:25:43

How were they like... tethering him

1:25:45

to the floor. Do they have

1:25:47

him like tied down? I mean

1:25:49

they had to have, he had

1:25:51

to have been tied down because

1:25:53

he didn't, they like cut something

1:25:55

for him to get lifted off.

1:25:57

Like because all the balloons were

1:25:59

already filled with helium. Yeah, and

1:26:01

like they had to connect them

1:26:03

all to the chair. Yeah, so

1:26:05

something had to have been tying

1:26:07

him down to the ground. So

1:26:09

within seconds, the inspiration reached the

1:26:11

end of the rope and it

1:26:13

snapped in half. The chair flung

1:26:16

forward and Larry's glasses flew off

1:26:18

his face and down hundreds of

1:26:20

feet below him. Larry, this is

1:26:22

why you weren't allowed to be

1:26:24

a pilot. Exactly. You couldn't even

1:26:26

think to attach your glasses to

1:26:28

your face? So now. He is

1:26:30

floating Willy Nilly free ball in

1:26:32

it into the sky on a

1:26:34

lawn chair and he's blind. You're

1:26:36

lucky you're in California if you

1:26:38

were in like Texas or the

1:26:40

South they would somebody was shot.

1:26:42

That's so true. Yeah. So immediately

1:26:44

as Carol is watching her boyfriend

1:26:46

quickly rise higher and higher into

1:26:48

the sky, she radios into him

1:26:50

and this conversation was recorded for

1:26:52

later use. So she's like, Larry,

1:26:54

come down. You've got to come

1:26:56

down if you can't see. Come

1:26:58

down if you can't see. Come

1:27:01

down. Come down. Come down. Come

1:27:03

down. And Larry's like, I have

1:27:05

a backup pair of glasses. I'm

1:27:07

A-OK. He did. Yeah. He's like,

1:27:09

I'm A-OK, babe, relax. And then

1:27:11

he starts to rise higher and

1:27:13

higher and he's like, I'm going

1:27:15

through a dense fog layer. Carol

1:27:17

says, oh God, keep talking, Larry.

1:27:19

We've got airplanes and they can't

1:27:21

see you. Oh my God, I

1:27:23

didn't even think about that. You're

1:27:25

actually not far from the airport.

1:27:27

No, and she sees the airplanes

1:27:29

heading towards him. And then she

1:27:31

goes, you're heading for the ocean,

1:27:33

you have to come down. So

1:27:35

she continues to scream into this

1:27:37

radio for him to come down

1:27:39

as he rises up past 2,500

1:27:41

feet. But Larry said, no way

1:27:43

in heck was he going to

1:27:46

come down after all this planning

1:27:48

and after all the years he's

1:27:50

waiting to do this. I kind

1:27:52

of understand. Yeah, he said, no

1:27:54

way in heck. He went higher

1:27:56

and higher and the higher he

1:27:58

went the more he was able

1:28:00

to see and he said it

1:28:02

was awesome He could see the

1:28:04

orange of the Queen Mary and

1:28:06

the oil tanks at the naval

1:28:08

station and he could see Catalina

1:28:10

Island. So Larry is now very

1:28:12

close to 16,000 feet into the

1:28:14

air. Oh that makes me sick.

1:28:16

And at this point, he is

1:28:18

spotted by two commercial airliners, Delta

1:28:20

and TWA, and they were coming

1:28:22

into LAX. Yeah. And they see

1:28:24

him, and they're like, what the

1:28:26

fuck am I looking at right

1:28:28

now? What is happening? We're dealing

1:28:31

with something insane. That could be

1:28:33

very dangerous. So one of the

1:28:35

airlines, they call into air traffic

1:28:37

control, and they say, this is

1:28:39

TWA, two three thousand feet. We

1:28:41

have a man in a chair

1:28:43

attached to balloons in our 10

1:28:45

o'clock position range five miles. I

1:28:47

guarantee you the people that they

1:28:49

like radioed that into were like,

1:28:51

uh, yeah, sure, bro. Like, what

1:28:53

do you mean? Yeah, what do

1:28:55

you mean you have a man

1:28:57

in a chair? How hard did

1:28:59

you party last night before you

1:29:01

took before you took this flight

1:29:03

on? Yeah, like you're not supposed

1:29:05

to like be on acid on

1:29:07

drugs when you're flying a plane

1:29:09

with a bunch of people on

1:29:11

the, uh, uh, So Larry is

1:29:13

finally like, okay, I think I'm

1:29:16

a little higher than I intended

1:29:18

to be and it's getting kind

1:29:20

of scary now. So he decides

1:29:22

he's gonna shoot his BB gun

1:29:24

at some of the balloons to

1:29:26

try to like descend a couple

1:29:28

thousand feet at least. So he

1:29:30

pops seven balloons and then a

1:29:32

huge gust of wind comes and

1:29:34

blows Larry sideways causing the chair

1:29:36

to tilt forward once again. And

1:29:38

he doesn't lose a pair of

1:29:40

glasses, I see. He doesn't lose

1:29:42

a pair of glasses, but he

1:29:44

does lose his BB gun. Oh,

1:29:46

that's not good. Which falls out

1:29:48

of his lap and down, down,

1:29:50

down somewhere. You think like if

1:29:52

we were gonna be on a

1:29:54

fucking lawn chair. Oh, he's not

1:29:56

even str- Like he doesn't have

1:29:58

a seat belt. That's what I'm

1:30:01

saying. Like you would think you

1:30:03

would have really locked in on

1:30:05

this one. Like you would have

1:30:07

had like things tied to things

1:30:09

who would be trapped in. No,

1:30:11

not even a helmet. No, no

1:30:13

helmet, no seat belt. He's free

1:30:15

ball in it. He's fucking raw

1:30:17

dog in space right now. Yeah.

1:30:19

And he drops his BB gun

1:30:21

and he's like, hope it doesn't

1:30:23

hit anyone, kind of over the

1:30:25

ocean at this point. Um, no.

1:30:27

He's, he's, he's very much over,

1:30:29

um, LAX at this point. Oh

1:30:31

my god, he's gonna get shot

1:30:33

down. He's like, so ridiculous. So

1:30:35

now Larry's like, oh boy, I,

1:30:37

I really fucked up here, I

1:30:39

think, I might, I think I

1:30:41

might be in trouble. Ruttrell. The

1:30:43

air was starting to get thin.

1:30:46

He said he was having difficulty

1:30:48

breathing and he's like, maybe I

1:30:50

should just jump and hope the

1:30:52

parachute works. Oh, he got about

1:30:54

the parachute. Yeah, he has the

1:30:56

parachute on his back, but he's

1:30:58

never used it. So he's like,

1:31:00

I don't know, what else am

1:31:02

I going to do? But luckily,

1:31:04

he did start to descend his,

1:31:06

the Helium and his balloons. He's

1:31:08

up there for about like an

1:31:10

hour and a half at this

1:31:12

point. They started to kind of

1:31:14

like, seep through. Okay. And he's

1:31:16

descending a little bit, so he

1:31:18

gets down to 13,000 feet. And

1:31:20

that's when he's able to use

1:31:22

his able to use his radio

1:31:24

to use his radio to speak

1:31:26

to an emergency rescue unit from

1:31:28

an emergency rescue unit. Okay, so

1:31:31

the operator asks him, what airport

1:31:33

did you take off from? And

1:31:35

he says, um, my point of

1:31:37

departure was 1633 West 7th Street

1:31:39

San Pedro. The way that I

1:31:41

know like where that is. And

1:31:43

the operator goes, I'm sorry, sir,

1:31:45

I couldn't hear you. What airport

1:31:47

did you take off from? Can

1:31:49

you repeat that, please? And Larry

1:31:51

now has to explain to the

1:31:53

operator what he has done, what
