DLUTI 149 - The Glitterex Conspiracy

Glitter! Its Glitter! I don't know what else to tell you about it. It's f**king glitter. It defies science and makes us question natural laws, and also makes stuff sparkly. Oh, it also distorts reality. And can be used as a pest repellant! There is a lot to talk about and only 2 of us to do it! This week, Mike and Jason dive headfirst into a vat of the world's most mysterious substance: Glitter (or whatever we call the stuff that makes stuff without glitter, glitter. Just listen, it'll be much harder this way.)

No bars are held, no holes are barred. Yeah, welcome to Don't Look Under the Internet. An internet comedy horror podcast starring yours truly. We have Jason, hello, hello. We have Doug.

Speaker 2 2:11

You went blonde, you went blonde.

Speaker 1 2:15

We have and Mute, mute, matt right there, mute, mute, mute, mute, and we have me, um, and we have me, uh, judging by last episode, uh, alex jones, because a lot of those stuff I went down, oh, I forgot to. Did you record that episode? The what the last episode the dead internet one yeah so when I went on my tangent, did you put in any crazy music or no, I don't know, no crazy music honestly I'm gonna apologize to everybody that listens to us for what I was doing in my chair last time, because that was uneditable.

Speaker 2 2:50

Well, were you squeaky or something Every time I shifted in my chair? Apparently my mic was picking it up, but I wasn't hearing it. And so there's just a whole bunch of like.

Speaker 1 2:57

Sometimes that'll happen to me, where I get like self-conscious about it, where I'll like I'll grab my glass and like ding, I'm like oh god, did I pick it up? Or like the air will go off, I'm like, guard the mic, don't let it hear. It can't be real if I don't hear it. Yeah, you guys are probably noticing there is no Matt or Doug with us today. That is because Doug is in the happiest place on earth hell, hell, denver, colorado. No, he's in Disney World. That is because Doug is in the happiest place on earth Hell, hell, denver, colorado. No, he's in Disney World. The happiest place on earth for a 30-something-year-old man. Dude, he's obsessed, he is a Disney boy.

Speaker 2 3:35

I've been living vicariously, though he messaged me when he was getting on Rise of Resistance.

Speaker 1 3:40

Oh yeah, I was like oh my God, you lucky fuck. I never saw it before distance and oh yeah, I was like, oh my god, you, lucky fuck he.

Speaker 2 3:45

I never saw before he showed me a video of the the ride dude. That is insane. I was lost when I got that.

Speaker 1 3:49

He showed me a video of it and he's like, oh yeah, this is even like it's broken. Yeah, I'm like what he showed me, what it was like in the beginning and with like the turrets are like going back and forth, like they're firing, I'm like that must have been the coolest fucking ride I've ever, like you would ever be on.

Speaker 2 4:01

Kelly and I went on that and we we had to stop and just like, just take it all just like we like, adjust ourselves to reality because a the line itself is cool as fuck oh yeah, everything's like interactive, even everything there's like it's. It's like you're walking through a like a rebel base, just like the the old star tours ride in Disney. Um, you walk through there and there's all this cool stuff you get to look at.

Speaker 2 4:26

Disney's very good at doing that shit that's why they did it right, because, yes, you have to wait in line. Why not give people something to?

Speaker 1 4:32

do exactly universal's good. Some of their rides are like the harry potter ride, because you go through the the castle yeah yeah, so that's a good one. I love the king kong ride because you're like it's all dark and you see, like the fucking yeah the, the, the art, the paintings and everything and all the Kong like sculptures and I'm like, oh yeah.

Speaker 2 4:49

Um, but dude you. You get into this ride, you lose where the fuck you are and where you've been, like it feels you are a rebel in the rebel alliance.

Speaker 2 5:06

It literally feels like you start on a different complete ship and you get boarded by the empire and you get taken aboard an imperial uh, star destroyer. You don't know how you left where you were because you just exit in the hangar bay of an imperial star destroyer. Yeah, with these fucking officers coming in, imperial officers saying like you're all being detained as part of the resistance.

Speaker 1 5:19

Please follow me for your interrogation I do enjoy from the video you showed me um spoilers for the ride. I guess it doesn't really matter, but no, you're like spoilers at all. You're? Please follow me for your interrogation.

Speaker 2 5:27

I do enjoy from the video you showed me um spoilers for the ride. I guess it doesn't really matter, but no, you're like, you're like, not the same, yeah, you're like in a contain containment thing from the prison cell. Yeah, you're in prison.

Speaker 1 5:34

So then, like the Jedi, the resistance, bust you out. Yeah, and like they, right, we're with the rebel Alliance, come on over. And then they go in the pods and I was I made the joke to Doug Cause like they get in the pods, I'm like we're with rebel eyes. We got to get you out of here. Uh, make sure your seatbelts fast, really good.

Speaker 1 5:59

And the guy does that and I was cracking the bad guy's control. You know you're in a prison cell. Gotta get you out of here. They're coming for us right now. Could you actually tighten?

Speaker 2 6:07

That doesn't look quite secure.

Speaker 1 6:09

Yeah, okay, keep your arms in. Okay, great, we gotta get the fuck out. Yeah, 100%. It's so goofy.

Speaker 2 6:16

When I got off of that ride, though, I legit was lost. I had no fucking idea where in the park I was, because you don't start anywhere near the entrance.

Speaker 1 6:30

This is now also. This is deludy. This is disney, disney under the internet. We're done with that. I'm just jealous that doug's having a vacation. Yeah, um, I am not, yeah, and matt's not here because he's got a lot of school and work stuff going on, smart boy and he's a big smart boy.

Speaker 2 6:36

He's getting his master's degree and my boy um, we need smart people on this show too yeah, because I I dumb us down well, the three of us together equal like one talk show host, that's true like an intelligence verbiage, anything yeah, and there's one thing that all talk shows show hosts have, and it's that razzle, that dazzle and I think it's because they're glimmer.

Speaker 1 6:59

That shimmer. Yeah, it's because their microphones and their ties all have that glitter on it. It does Fuck. It's so weird. We don't have any housekeeping today. That's why I'm talking about this right now. But speaking of glitter, Jason.

Speaker 2 7:14

Yeah, what about it?

Speaker 1 7:14

I'm just going to bird scooter into that, the bankrupt company that be Bird scooter. We're talking about a little fun little conspiracy today that Jason and I stumbled upon that we enjoy. We're talking about the Glitter X conspiracy and I swear to God, if Red Web comes out with a Glitter X episode, I am right.

Speaker 2 7:34

There's a mole. There's a mole somewhere in the house. You got to check your phones. That's the next episode.

Speaker 1 7:38

Just figure out who the mole is who the mole is. Yeah, so Red Web, I swear to God, if you do a fucking Glitter X conspiracy episode, you're either in our Google Drive or you're getting information from one of us or you've agreed to be under the delusion.

Speaker 2 7:51

Oh, fucking Amelia.

Speaker 1 7:52

I knew it she's sending them information, mm-hmm.

Speaker 2 7:55

Well, we got to figure that out. We got to do something about that. We got to do something about that. Put my lawyer on her.

Speaker 1 8:12

Why are we talking about glitter? Mike, it does not seem that important to talk about.

Speaker 2 8:15

We're talking about glitter because, although glitter seems innocent, on the, the face value, there is a glimmering, shiny other face.

Speaker 1 8:18

It's a back face back, face that is hidden from reality. And um, there is a gigantic conspiracy going on with glitter who makes it and who's buying it all? Yeah, that's, and honestly I I didn't I didn't like my voice there, I didn't sorry. That was very like. And who's buying it? All that? Was very like shitty youtube and we're gonna go down the rabbit hole fucking hate when I do that.

Speaker 2 8:46

Well then, stop, I can't um, I'm not gonna lie, man, I didn't understand why you wanted to talk about this fun. I've I've heard a couple of things about like glitter and like just some secrecy surrounding like its production or something, but I never really was like drawn into something, yeah. And so when you brought this up, like yeah, we're gonna talk about glitter x, and I go, is that like the like the what was glitter thing?

Speaker 1 9:13

and you're like, yeah, by the end of this glitter is not going to sound like a real word oh it already doesn't. Yeah, I'm convinced it's alien entirely well, speaking of what is glitter, jason, can you tell me? Can you, can you tell me what? Could you draw me a word, draw me a picture of glitter jason.

Speaker 2 9:30

Um, so I actually found this out. Uh, I didn't know that glitter was technically not a thing like glitter. The word glitter does not refer to a baggie full of shiny stuff that doesn't come off of things, plastic stuff, whatever, whatever you want to call it. Yeah, plastic, quote, quote. It actually doesn't refer to that. Glitter is actually something called a mass noun and it's specifically a granular aggregate like rice. It's not schnimbles, it's not schnimbles. It's not schnimbles, it's not schnimbles. I don't think that is an actual measurement of anything, unless you're measuring glitter. But in case anyone doesn't know what a mass noun is, a mass noun is simply a noun that denotes something that cannot be counted, and so glitter itself, it simply it refers to the the quantity of it. No, the number has nothing to do with any of it.

Speaker 2 10:27

Glitter is the shine, is the effect that glitter has on something. After it's been put onto something that is called glitter, the actual substance itself is shortened to something called B-O-P-E-T and that you could pull it, that is, you can. What if you twist it? Well, it'll twist. Don't do that unless it tells you to. Okay, just don't. This is short for, oh, my God, this is. Guys, we're going way into the weeds right off the fucking bat. We sure are. It's something called polyethylene terephthalate.

Speaker 1 11:10

Are you casting?

Speaker 2 11:11

spells in my basement. Terephthalate T-E-R-E-P-H-T-H-A-L-A-T-E Rolls off the tongue. That's the actual name for glitter, and that's not even. It doesn't even apply to the, the shiny part of it. That's just a. That is the, the thing that makes it like, able to be manipulated more or less, and so, like. Glitter itself refers to the, the effect that it gives things. But glitter is technically not what that little stuff is called. That stuff doesn't have a name. Hmm, it's schnibbles.

Speaker 1 11:44

You know what? You're right, it has one name.

Speaker 2 11:46

It's just not recognized most places um, but like mike said, like you, this it's a weird topic. You find this shit everywhere and this stuff it's a nail polish, I mean it's, it's in everything. We're gonna go over some of the uses for it later, because that's a whole fucking rabbit hole all on its own. That's the main conspiracy like that, not even the, not even what you're talking.

The Origins and Creation of Glitter

Speaker 1 12:10

I'm talking about the fact that glitter is used however, in the yeah, a lot of the shit I found that makes no sense to none but okay but okay, um, but yeah, that's.

Speaker 2 12:21

That is the long-winded way of trying to describe what glitter actually is, but for the sake of ease, let's just call glitter not. It's not the effect. Glitter is that shit in the back. Glitter is glitter, glitter is glitter. I think that's just the easiest way to deal with this.

Speaker 1 12:35

I would agree. Now you're probably asking yourself damn Jason, you made no sense.

Speaker 2 12:41

I didn't, I made no fucking sense, but that you made no sense. I didn't, I made no fucking sense, but that's what. That's what glitter is. If they don't even ask me what steps you have to go through to fucking get glitter, oh, I'll tell you.

Speaker 1 12:51

I kind of I'm gonna tell you, I'm gonna give the probably the layman's way of how it's made, because you found more about how it's made than I did this shit how shit is made like fascinates me. I, I'm into it too. Um, but this I couldn't wrap my head around it, so I just went with, like the tldr, that one of the articles. But, like I, the things that we talk about sound like when it comes to like the how it's made could be made up by like hugbees, the youtuber that makes those like those fake, how it's Made videos.

Speaker 1 13:26

It sounds like some shit. He could say Absolutely.

Speaker 1 13:30

So, this is kind of a brief history on how it's made. So back in the 1940s out on a farm on New Jersey there was a man named Henry Richman and he was a very experienced precision cutter in Germany. So he had this machine that precision cut metals and plastics, things like that. This machine would let out this it cut this like glossy photo. Back in Germany that's what he was doing. He was cutting like glossy photos for a camera company, I which one, um. But he was cutting out their their photo prints, um, occasionally it would pop out this cellulose paperish material which he called schnipples, which is why it's super adorable um, but that is what led him to create glitter.

Speaker 1 14:22

He's like, oh, look at this shit, because it was like it had like the. It had the glittery, like sparkles in. It was just cellulose paper. Yeah, it had like the, the glittery sparkles, and that's where it came from. He's like, oh, look at that fun shit, so maybe I can do something this. So he invented a way to precision cut this material into um, the glitter that we know it as. So glitter, uh, became like a side hustle for not only this guy, but the people that we know it as. So glitter became like a side hustle for not only this guy, but the people that were working with him. So in this is where it starts getting weird.

Speaker 2 14:56

It does not take long, man.

Speaker 1 14:57

So he invented this machine in Germany, this precision cutting machine. Remember Germany, yeah, germany, yep, I'm right with you this precision cutting machine.

Speaker 2 15:05

Remember Germany.

Speaker 1 15:06

Yeah.

Speaker 2 15:06

Germany. Yep, I'm right with you Right now I am.

Speaker 1 15:09

He was brought over to the US to work on the Manhattan Project. Oh, because of the implications that this glitter stuff could have and the way that he could make it. So, apparently, the glitter that the United States military had him working with the Manhattan Project, this man that invented glitter, helped build the atom bomb Because apparently the way that they used the glitter was they used a different material to help with the fuel. It helped burn the fuel more efficiently the way that they produced it.

Speaker 1 15:44

But they brought them over and so, as they were producing glitter here, um, the people that he worked with were like, yeah, take it home, do whatever you want with the glitter, I don't fucking care. So his workers would take it home and they would use, they would sell it on the side and it became like this profitable thing to where, in the 40s, they used to burn christmas candles used to call them but that they switched that out with glitter as a decorative thing. And that's how glitter became the christmas thing, because I not just the christmas thing. That's where it became like a public, a public, a public thing, like decoration, exactly decoration. And they turned that into a company. And this company was all that was just to help generate small revenue for his farm.

Speaker 2 16:31

Yeah, what did he name, this little he named his company Metal Brook Inventions. He named it that.

Speaker 1 16:36

Yes, Now oh okay. It was supposed to be a side hustle just to help with costs of the farm, but then it grew into a fucking billion, billion, billion, billions of dollar empire that we now see today. Now, Meadowbrook.

Speaker 2 16:51

Inventions. That's funny that that's the name of this dude's company. Yeah, and not something different Like what we're talking about. Like, what we're about to talk about the other company and there's. You'll see why in a second.

Speaker 1 17:06

Now I also didn't get into the minute specifics about how glitter is made.

Speaker 2 17:11

Because we could talk about that forever and nothing makes sense.

Speaker 1 17:14

They literally talk. We were having this discussion earlier about how they dissolve, evaporate.

Speaker 2 17:19

Evaporate, thank you. They evaporate aluminum from aluminum and we were trying to fucking wrap our heads around that and the way that it's made.

Speaker 1 17:31

The glitter is made up of like 250 layers.

Speaker 2 17:35

Yes, oh my God, there's so many layers, and the layers are literally either half or less than half the length of a wavelength of light and they're combined together some fucking how like. It's not through heat, it's not through adhesive, it's atomically no, dude, I, I, literally I have the production process pulled up right now.

Speaker 2 17:59

That doesn't help no, I can't read that. I mean I have, I can understand, like basic concepts about, like, what you're doing to make it happen, but like it. So what do you mean? You evaporate aluminum? Yeah, what the fuck are you talking about?

Speaker 1 18:13

what I gave you was a tldr. It's all glitter essentially just came from precision. Cutting it that in an essence tldr if you don't want to lose your mind. This is how it's made. You take this material, you precision cut it into whatever you want itty bitty bits of whatever shape you want. Yep, that is it. It's just precision cut material and glitter can be anything. We were talking, like we said, glitter is just the definition of the shiny yep glitter can be, uh, plastic, it could be paper, it could be metals, it could be literally anything.

Speaker 1 18:42

As long as you can be precision, cut down it's glitter. So who's making the shit? I feel like the little hang on, we're gonna what are you drinking?

Speaker 2 18:54

what are you? Thinking there's a bottle here and it's okay yep, I'm starting to feel overwhelmed and like I dove down the fucking rabbit hole on this one. I know you did too, but just like the, just the amount of stuff that we have to talk about just to make people understand, like what I need a fucking drink for this what are we drinking? We are drinking uh I'm drinking kevin costner's favorite yeah, yellowstone, yellowstone, select, which I made the kind people at meyer uh sell to me for half price.

Speaker 1 19:25

Yeah, fun fact. If you guys want cheap whiskey, just take an expensive bottle, put it in front of a discount tag and be like I found it like that, and they'll just give you that price.

Speaker 2 19:37

To be fair, it was in front of a clearance tag, it's just that somebody fucked up. They're like, no, you can't sell that to you for that.

Speaker 1 19:52

I'm like well, you're gonna, my gun says otherwise when you hear the clink drink pink, thanks meyer yellowstone.

Speaker 2 19:58

I'm not used to having a sipper, and so I almost took this like a shot.

Speaker 1 20:01

You don't want to do that so yeah, so we were talking about metal brook inventions that's just one of the creators of glitter and honestly I'm still kind of surprised that that's the name of.

Speaker 2 20:20

We know the history of how glitter came to be and we know what company came from that.

Speaker 2 20:27

That's it for that so let's talk about Glitter X, which is a huge, huge glitter manufacturing company. It is one of two. Well, it's one of several. Two in the United States, I believe it's one of two in the world that I can actually verify makes glitter. Yeah, united states, I believe it's one of two in the world that I can actually verify makes glitter. Yeah, the.

Speaker 2 20:53

I did find several others, but, um, as it turns out, none of their links are clickable. So that makes sense. I don't think you're a real site. Um, so we have glitter x, which is like this, is the most well-known um. On paper. It supplies the most glitter to the most people in the world, and on paper, that was the only company that did that. Now, wait a minute. You might be asking me didn't you just talk about a guy that invented glitter, starting a company called meadowbrook inventions? Yep, yeah, that's what mike said. So where the fuck did glitter x come from? Well, that's a good, goddamn question, not the, not the right question, though. The right question is why aren't we hearing about meadowbrook? You know the name of the company that invented glitter oh, because they don't want you to talk about them and that's exactly it.

Speaker 2 21:38

For some fucking reason, until very was it like a year ago, two years ago, maybe even oh when, when more shit was popped uh, I think it was. Oh, it might have been 2019 I mean this.

Speaker 1 21:50

My, my source was this year or last year.

Speaker 2 21:53

Sorry then 2023 is what is? That's what? I'm getting my shit confused. Um, until 2023, I believe. Double check me I could be 100 wrong on, but I'm almost positive it was until 2023. They were, did not. No one knew that they made glitter Nobody. And it was not until very recently when people started like oh Meadowbrook.

Speaker 1 22:13

Yeah, oh, I thought you meant when we found out a bit more information on, like, who the creator was, the actual. No, I think no. Meadowbrook goes back to, I think, 2018. There's a New York Times article where they mention Meadowbrook, so that one is like 2018.

Speaker 2 22:27

Gotcha Still incredibly recent for a fucking glitter company and the fact that I need to remember so many different events, so many different years, so many different timetables, people, et cetera, about a glitter company Like that. I just I can't get past that. So cool 2018, I guess it was then Around there, yeah, around there. Before then, we did not know if there were other companies in the world that made glitter. We knew of Glitter X because they were very vocal about it, but we haven't heard of any other companies. It's in the maze. We're Glitter.

Speaker 1 23:00

X. We don't make glitter.

Speaker 2 23:01

We knew who invented glitter. We knew what company he started. And X, we don't make glitter. We knew who invented glitter. We knew what company he started and it wasn't until when did he found that company? Didn't you say the 30s, 40s, 40s, cool. So 80 fucking years? Yeah, 80 fucking years, like that is, so that is such a fucking long time to secretly make mass quantities of glitter quote.

Speaker 1 23:25

They quote unquote are an extremely private company. That is a direct quote.

Speaker 2 23:30

And why. What do you mean? What the fuck do you mean? You're making glitter, Jason. You don't even know.

Speaker 1 23:38

Mike.

Speaker 2 23:39

I want you to just close the book on the glitter knowledge you have and I want you to go back to the sweet, sweet date of like a week ago, when you didn't know everything that you do right now. And I want you to tell me do you like if someone told you, I don't want people to know that we make fuckloads of glitter? Oh, I'd be suspicious as fuck. If somebody told you I want everybody to know that we make fuck loads of glitter, how would you feel?

Mystery Surrounding Glitter Usage

Speaker 1 24:06

I would not. I feel safe. I would feel like a warm blanket, safe I just I don't understand why.

Speaker 2 24:14

Why the secrecy? Why 80 years of secrecy around glitter? Why the fuck? Probably because of what they do with it. That might be it, and you know, a good, a good uh place to kind of figure that out would be who is uh, who's using all this glitter?

Speaker 1 24:29

so here's what they don't want you to know oh shit, oh shit. This is why they don't want you to know it. So in an article uh, from the 2018 new york times article that I I referenced, which is like the big article that broke basically the lid off of this and got everyone talking about it it is from the New York Times, it's from 2018. It's from December 21st 2018. I was correct on that one. Good job, mike, thank you.

Speaker 1 24:57

In that article, the woman that wrote it talked to they tried to talk to Meadowbrook Meadow, metal brook was like we are a very private company. We are not disclosing any information, because they're like who's using glitter? Right, who? She was just curious about it. She's just like who's buying glitter in such a vast quantity? She's like I've been seeing, I've been following the market and I've been seeing that you know, uh, um, she's like I've been seeing glitter x's portfol, I've been seeing Glitter X's portfolios, I've been seeing how much that they are shipping. Who's buying all this shit? And so she reached out to Metalbrook and they instantly were basically like fuck off, we're not giving you shit.

Speaker 2 25:35

And she reached out to Glitter X A rational response.

Speaker 1 25:37

Reached out to Glitter X and Glitter X said they do not want us to disclose who they are and they don't want you to why why even say that?

Speaker 1 25:49

direct quote from the person she interviewed from glitter x. Now, this obviously spawned a huge amount of conspiracies on online, because you don't just say some shit like that and expect no one to ever say anything, ever. No, you should have just been like they prefer to remain anonymous because they don't like to chatter. They don't want to reveal you know, like KFC secrets. They don't want to reveal the 11 herbs and spices. Yeah, just make something up.

Speaker 2 26:17

We don't want to reveal trade secrets.

Speaker 1 26:19

They don't want you to know that it is glitter. What is it?

Speaker 1 26:23

So a bunch of conspiracies going around and this is kind of the big conspiracies that you hear of Most people. A vast majority think kind of the big conspiracies that you hear of Most people. A vast majority think that it is from the military. They think that it is specifically military explosives. So they think the military is buying up most of the glitter. Boating companies think that people say that companies are buying it up for boat paint, which boat paint does have glitter in it.

Speaker 2 26:46

Obviously, has glitter in it.

Speaker 1 26:48

It's a very, very good theory. People think that funeral homes are also buying it up, which maybe some caskets. If you want to go out with a little razzle dazzle, you know, yeah, um, shine on them one more time. Um, the problem with this one, though, I will say, is on reddit you got a. Um, we actually had someone who runs a, who's been in the funeral industry for over 10 years, and they were like nobody ever wants glitter near their fucking funeral home.

Speaker 2 27:14

No, that shit is a mess.

Speaker 1 27:15

It doesn't? They're like we will never touch this stuff. This is a lie. So I'm thinking the funeral home is out. Toothpaste is another one. That's a big conspiracy, Big.

Speaker 1 27:23

Colgate doesn't want you to know, yeah, big Colgate doesn't want you to know and you to know. And all of this comes from a lot of these come from podcasts. There's other podcasts out there that talk about, um, the conspiracy with this, and they brought up the boat paint as the main um, uh, uh, what's the word? I'm looking for? The main use, main use, thank you. Yes, they bring up boat paint as the main use, which again could, could be a.

Speaker 2 27:46

That's a big boat, your big yachts there's yeah, actually I think I remember reading something about that, and the reason they think it's a conspiracy is because they think that if people know there's glitter in the boat paint, it will hurt the masculine image.

Speaker 1 28:00

Oh yeah, oh yeah, you got to look out for them. Chads that own boats, the alphas, they can't have glitter, uh-uh.

Speaker 2 28:07

It's turning the frogs, gary. I get that masculinity is very fucking fragile, but not that fragile right.

Speaker 1 28:14

There's people paying like 18 grand right now to go to an alpha male camp, to go to a fucking alpha camp.

Speaker 2 28:18

That's right. Oh God, I forgot about those.

Speaker 1 28:19

So yeah, it's pretty fucking fragile, if you ask me yeah you're not wrong. The other theory right now is food, which can be a thing. You could see that some foods are. There's edible glitter out there, so you can see that some people are putting it on food, not gonna lie.

Speaker 2 28:36

I specifically spent like 15 to 20 minutes in the liquor department looking for one of those drinks that uses a fucking glitter.

Speaker 1 28:43

Like the hypnotic or whatever.

Speaker 2 28:45

Oh God, barf, Just be happy, I didn't find any.

Speaker 1 28:48

Thank God, but on top of this, zoos or not zoos? Zeus, zeus is made of glitter, wildlife uh like, uh. Preservers and people like that will sneak glitter into some animals food, so when they poop they can track where they're going, because they'll track the shiny poop doesn't go anywhere yeah, so they'll know that, they'll know where that animal's going, they'll understand like habitats and like, uh, migration patterns, things like that because they follow the poop this one's got red.

Speaker 2 29:16

That's the christmas colors over there, yeah he's going to the north pole.

Speaker 1 29:19

Yeah, um, another one is on money. Um, you know you can look at a dollar bill. Yeah, you'll see a little bit of a shine on a little glittery sparkle. Um, funny enough, it's mostly one of my sources that I'll get to um say that it isn't used in American currency as much as it is used in foreign currency.

Speaker 2 29:36

Oh my God, I have some uh Kamanian dollars that literally look like a blind. It looks like a Prince concert.

Speaker 1 29:42

Like Edward from Twilight, um, but those are the main like uses. So who's using all the glitter? It's a bunch of industries. From from what people are speculating online. It's a bunch of industries so for like toothpaste industry boat industries.

Speaker 2 29:58

Let me get this straight. The question is who is using all the glitter?

Speaker 1 30:02

and the answer is fucking bunch of people bunch of fucking just a fuckload of people, just a fuckload of companies, are using it. Okay, but what's like?

Speaker 2 30:09

the military was pretty high on that list but well, okay, but if you had to like, honestly, I think it'd be more interesting if we did like a who you like, who uses the most. Like a combination of everything is one thing, but like what? Like? Where do we see all the glitter going to? Like one like I don't know how to describe this what company, what industry, I guess is a better way to put it uses the most glitter?

Speaker 1 30:31

you want me to crack the lid on that one right now, or?

Speaker 2 30:33

well, we're about to anyway all right.

Speaker 1 30:35

What do you want to jump into yours? Or do you want me to go ahead?

Speaker 2 30:37

yeah, let's we can preface this we might as well, because mine will sound not even remotely close, so anything here, so yeah, so I will say military is the biggest conspiracy when it comes to who's using the most glitter, it's like 40-some odd percent of people 48% of everyone polled about this says that the military Mm-hmm.

Speaker 1 30:56

Which begs the question what's the military doing with it?

Speaker 2 31:01

Would you like me to tell you I would your burning question, please do. Okay, just take care of that other burning stuff. Without me it's itchy, yeah, that's why I don't want any part of it. So the military buys glitter. I know that's a super strange sentence all by itself, but I promise there's context. They use the glitter as microtagons and what they do with these is each explosive is registered with their own microtagon, which is glitter, other very easily identifiable substance, and what it does is when an explosive goes off, it's also mixed with glitter, and then you can take a look at the glitter. You can see what batch it came from, see where it came from, and you can literally track the explosive to where it was made, where it come from, who sold it, who bought it. Um, I mean, genius, we all know glitter.

Speaker 2 31:50

It fucking doesn't go anywhere.

Speaker 1 31:51

It doesn't get off.

Speaker 2 31:54

Another one is I mean, we've talked about a couple of these. It's in toothpaste, it's in a ton of food items, arts and crafts Huge one.

Speaker 1 32:01

Well, another one, with military as well, speaking of missiles, is they'll use it as like a missile deterrent. Yeah, flares, it's a missile, flare instead of regular old flares, they'll just the jet will fart that out.

Speaker 2 32:12

It's like fucking uh the master, uh mastermind's ship from event or uh fucking thor jeff goldblum oh yeah, just yeah, flares galore that's what I assume our air force looks like when they're 100%.

Speaker 1 32:30

But uh, yeah, they use in that to evade explodes uh missiles from hitting their yeah, their jets flares.

Speaker 2 32:36

Yes, things you would never. But now that you know that radar satellites, it goes off in your head like oh duh, like yeah, that makes sense, it's reflective, it's like it fucks up radar yep, it fucks up radar.

Speaker 1 32:46

So they'll actually coat some planes with it. They'll um, they'll put it on the radar dishes because actually if you put it in a certain um pattern, it'll actually help expand out, yeah, our signals.

Speaker 2 32:57

That's the other thing that I was gonna go into a little bit. Actually, we'll do that. I'm gonna go into, like, all the specific yeah I'll shut up, you can I'm talking about, like those, like what it, like what glitter breaks like it's a plane.

Speaker 1 33:08

Yes, like it's oh.

Speaker 2 33:10

I can't wait to talk about the fucking factory this dude goes to yeah, oh yeah it's gonna be, it's fun anyway. So all these really, really regular things aside from the microtagons you wouldn't really thought of that coatings on stealth planes, satellites, it coats the dome, obviously. That covers the entirety of flat earth and so that way, when the light reflect, reflects differently, it shows different images throughout the sky. So you think it's moving, even though it's not. It's a big illusion, obviously, right? Uh-huh, what? What's wrong with that one? Wait?

Speaker 1 33:42

What's wrong? Go with that more.

Speaker 2 33:46

Glitter coats, the dome that covers the entirety of the flat Earth. How else can we get different people across the globe to see different things? So it's like a mirror, yeah, and actually this makes me laugh because this one actually heavily leans on the science behind glitter, Like heavily leans on it.

Speaker 1 34:05

This is the one that makes the most sense Seriously, Like if there were a dome, it would be coated in glitter.

Speaker 2 34:12

Most sense, seriously like if there were a dome it would be coated in glitter. Simply because when I was doing my research on this stuff I figured I learned so much about glitter I know exactly what glitter isn't. I could not define glitter like to save my fucking life.

Speaker 1 34:22

It's like porn.

Speaker 2 34:23

I can't define it, but I know it when I see it, exactly, glitter and porn are the same exact thing. Um, but no, the layers of the the, like the polyethylene they used for the plastic in this are lit. They're. I think they said something about it's like half a wavelength, big, like that's it, and that's how they explain how you can see it flash so many different colors and so brightly, because it's reflecting the entire spectrum twice at you, even colors that you can't see. It's literally reflecting that at you. On top of that, this is tiny. You've seen glitter, right, that itty-bitty one speck of it is literally two pieces of aluminum that has been evaporated around a piece of plastic that is 200 layers thick, hmm, but each layer is half a wavelength and it's also not aluminum and it's not aluminum, but it is. Well, you have to evaporate all the aluminum out of the aluminum to be left, with the aluminum that's left over from the evaporation process.

Speaker 1 35:27

Right, right, am I making sense yet? Alumiminium.

Speaker 2 35:33

The worst part is. The worst part part is this is not even like, uh, like, oh, look at they're, they're coming to abduct us. Like, oh, there's a big projector over the earth. This, that and the other, we're fucking talking about glitter.

Speaker 1 35:42

I'm going on a rant about how the science behind glitter barely fucking makes I hope we have a smart person listening and they're like you guys are so fucking stupid.

The Glitter Conspiracy and Carnivorous Clowns

Speaker 2 35:51

That's not how glitter, I hope they show up and they're like no, listen here, idiots, because you got glitter wrong maybe, but like, the rabbit hole that I fucking went down this past week was insane. No one hears about the carnivorous clown people that live in the sewer since the invention of glitter yeah, they're scared of that what the fucking the Yorkville sighting of the killer clowns. What? Someone didn't leave enough glitter in the town of Yorkville to keep the clowns in the sewer, like Yorkville, illinois.

Speaker 1 36:18

Yeah.

Speaker 2 36:19

You remember the clown sightings? No, there's a whole movie based on it, called Behind the Sightings. People in clown outfits were showing up and like, killing people and harassing the shit out of them.

Speaker 1 36:31

And that's how is that connected to glitter?

Speaker 2 36:34

well, if there's more glitter out now, it keeps them in the sewers, but yorkville didn't do their their glitter drop their due diligence right, they just didn't fucking do it. And so now the carnivorous clown people came out and they decided they wanted to party carnivorous sewer clowns.

Speaker 1 36:51

Yeah, there's some way to turn that into like teenage ninja turtles carniv I'll workshop that um how does that connect also to finding this? It's in toothpaste, that I'm not concerned about I'm concerned about the clowns?

Speaker 2 37:07

dude people have lost their minds. I'm losing my mind about this, because what is glitter? What isn't glitter? Are we all glitter, is everything glitter, and if everything is, glitter is nothing glitter is a glitter. Glitter is cake, but cake, nope, can't get on that rabbit hole. That's too confusing. Um, I mean to be fair, I glitter isn't so much shit that I never ever would have thought it to be in there. So fucking, why not? Why can't glitter be a carnivorous clown repellent?

Speaker 1 37:39

you know what give it to us by the aliens? It's one of those things. It's similar to where it's like I've never seen bruce wayne and batman in the same room before.

Speaker 2 37:48

I've never seen a carnivorous sewer, clown and glitter glitter in the same room so for all we know, it is working yeah, well, yeah, that's why yorkville do fucking yearly glitter drops. Come on, keep the clowns.

Speaker 1 37:59

So are we okay, I haven't seen a glitter drop recently and where we live, maybe it's just so, like maybe it's clear, or do we?

Speaker 2 38:08

I would say, do we just not see it?

Speaker 1 38:09

clear glitter there is like ultraviolet.

Speaker 2 38:11

No, yeah like.

Speaker 1 38:12

That is a thing in one of the articles they're like, so there's glitter that reflects the ultraviolet spectrum which means you can't animals can see it, but we cannot correct.

Speaker 2 38:21

That is a thing that is a thing and how would you know it's there? You fucking, wouldn't you just feel annoyed, be like. I know I'm coated in like a weird powdery feels like waxy, can't fucking see it. Yeah, I um. So those are just some of the theories, as well as some of the things that we had talked about earlier. But the military is, by and large, the biggest theory, for where all of the money that is buying glitter goes. What comes from I?

Speaker 1 38:48

Yeah, that's very true Kind of the military.

Speaker 2 38:51

I personally think it's the clowns, but that makes the most sense.

Speaker 1 38:56

Convince me, mike. Okay, why is it not the clowns? So here we go. I'm going to go down my rabbit hole now, okay, okay. So there's a YouTuber out there named Chupple. Okay, about nine months, crack the case on the glitter conspiracy. Okay, go watch it. It's called the End of the Glitter Conspiracy by Chupple. They literally literally go out like investigative journalists. They go out and they crack the code on what's going on. So they start investigating. They're like why can't we find any information on fucking glitter? Like, why can't we interview anybody? So they find an article on this dumbass website. I'm talking it's literally called like. It's called like butts and cheeks, reportercom. Like it is some. Just, you'll never, like you'll never even think of looking up a uh, this website to find, like a review or like a news article, but like it has.

Speaker 1 39:45

I forgot the name of it, but it's such a weird sounding thing. Anyway, on this website there is a uh, industrial writer named robert seeley and he's been doing industrial writing so he writes for, like industrial companies. He writes articles on industrial news. That is where you find this shit.

Speaker 2 40:03

So he might have written about south 32 is what you're saying honestly. Maybe, okay, maybe, but that's kind of cool.

Speaker 1 40:08

So chupple got in contact with robert seeley, was like what's your take on all this? He's like you know who you'll want to talk to is the guy that I wrote everything with yada, yada, yada, who is Henry W Rushman, who is a glitter expert. Now you're probably like wait a minute, wait a minute. That name sounds kind of familiar to me. I heard met. That name sound kind of familiar to me. I heard that name before. Yes, it's because the creator of glitter is henry f rushman. So we have a relative that was interviewed and we can find this guy, henry w rushman. Now the the chupple people here.

Speaker 2 40:45

They find chupple they find him.

Speaker 1 40:47

It's an old man. Now they find him. They fly all the way over to this guy out in Jersey. And they find him. Turns out he is just ready to spill the beans. He doesn't give a fuck about anything.

Speaker 2 41:00

He's been talking about this for years.

Speaker 1 41:02

He was working with the glitter company Meadowbrook Inventions. He was working with them that was his father's company until about 30 years prior, when his siblings booted him out of the company. They kicked his ass out. So now it seems like he doesn't give a shit. He's still related. So they can't like kick him off the premises. So, yeah, trouble's like well, can you, can you like get us into the, uh, onto the farm? He's like yeah, let's go to the farm. When, when literally no one's been able to set foot on this farm, there's been actual ABC news crews that try getting on and they were immediately like no, get the fuck out, you're not allowed in here with cameras.

Speaker 1 41:39

You can't be in here. But the guy's just like sure, come on, let's go for a ride, let's go for a fucking ride. They can't into it. But I think he probably left and their turns were all right. I'm not into the company, but you can't kick me off the property because it's all on the farm he lives on-.

Speaker 1 41:57

Technically he owns it, right, his siblings do, his family does, but he lives on the land. So I think it's a thing where they couldn't kick him off the land. They legally can't, and in a loophole he's like that means I can enter this building. That's, that's my my theory on it. But, um, so they, they, they take chopper across, like the farm and everything. They don't film it because they do get caught.

Speaker 1 42:20

And they're like you can't have cameras. And like the the, the guy henry w rushman is like yeah, they wanted to learn about the glitter farm, so I'm taking them around. And the security guy that stopped him is like but they asked me to stop you because you cannot have cameras. Like you can't take photos. And the guy's like all right, well, I'm taking them around the farm anyway. And they're like yeah, we know that we can't stop you from doing that, but like no photos. He's like all right, put your cameras away. So like it's assumed that there's potentially photos that are out there, but they never released them, but like he was straight up, he was straight up just like, yeah, no, I'm taking them around because they want to go around there they're.

Speaker 1 42:55

He literally told me he's like yeah, they're doing a piece on where glitter comes from and all this shit, so I'm taking them around to find out. Didn't give a fuck about it, no, so that man's out of fucks to give he answers all their fucking questions there. He's like so who are like? Who's the biggest buyer? And it's not the military per se, but it's contractors that work with the military oh so non-regulated institutions potentially?

Speaker 2 43:20

yes, strongly like what's uh, like the group.

Speaker 1 43:23

Yeah, it's strongly implied that it's people like that. He even tells us of one of the groups again, I forgot the name. I'm sorry, but he tells us of one of the third party contractor groups. He's like yeah, we work with these guys all the time. Just straight up name drops one of these people and like the, the chuppo, like interview guys are just like oh my god, he's giving us so much fucking information. This is crazy, and so they're. They're like okay, so what else is it in?

Speaker 1 43:46

He's like dude, glitter isn't fucking everything. He's like there's glitter in the money, like you got that. There's glitter in the toothpaste. He's like you want to know how all the toothpaste people do. He's like look at the packaging for toothpaste. Kids walk up. They see the shiny-ass packaging. They see the shiny toothpaste. They buy it. That's what they like. They like shiny things. They're like birds put that shit in the food because it again and drink. They make the food sparkle. It attracts your attention. Oh, look at that shiny apple. I'll take that glitter. That's fucking. Yeah, that's glitter, um, and he's just spilling the fucking beans, because this old man doesn't give a shit.

Speaker 1 44:21

Um, to the point where, like they even were, like all right, we got our answers. Like it's a mundane answer like yeah like the conspiracy is there's no like answer of who specifically is buying up they don't?

Speaker 2 44:34

they don't want people to know that glitter is being sold to massively to mercenaries. We call them contractors but potentially it's the same fucking thing mercenaries and contractors no they are the same like allegedly call them both. Freelance is the same thing as mercenary blackstone like it's. That's just what this is, because most of these groups, as we just said, are using it, probably for the microtagons and the explosives. What you've said leads me to believe that these are military based operations.

Speaker 1 45:04

Well, not just not just attacks, but like if you think about and this adds to the conspiracy to me with these, these government contractors, obviously the government's contracting these out so they keep their hands clean of it. That way, if anything comes back, they're like we're gonna do shit.

Speaker 1 45:16

We're done. We don't know who this guy is. But fair, we were just talking about before how there's some glitter that is not visible by people. It's on the uv spectrum. So what the fuck do you think they're doing with that kind of technology? You know we're already coding, I'm trying to think of, we're already putting it on like jets and shit, so you, they can't be picked up by radar. Imagine spraying invisible glitter on a jet. Wouldn't that refract the light around the fucking jet? So you can't see the fucking jet. That's what I'm saying potentially that's what I'm saying.

Speaker 1 45:43

Are they using it for that kind of shit?

Speaker 2 45:44

oh my god, have you seen the uh personal invisibility shield? Yeah the little block. I wonder if it's some shit like that. That's what I'm saying. Remember that tech is probably from about 60 years ago, mm-hmm. Just, you always have to remember that Anything commercial is way behind everything else, and so, like you saying, that leads me to believe that we do have things that can cloak things.

Speaker 1 46:04

There could be an invisible man in my room right now, in the room right now. We don't fucking know.

Speaker 2 46:07

He's beating off Me too. That's the only way I would have the invisible man.

Speaker 1 46:13

Glitter, glitter, that's all it is.

Speaker 2 46:14

So, henry, Rushman, he actually got into a glitter accident. His job Glitter X.

Speaker 1 46:31

He fell into a vat waste, but it's mild manner. Connor Butts was just a regular man. Then he fell into radioactive glitter and became Glitter man, invisible Glitter man. But Henry basically just tells him like it is. And again, it's not like the conspiracy. We get an answer but we don't at the same time. So during the New York Times article, when the lady got that answer of yeah, they don't want us to tell you who they are and they don't want you to know that it is glitter, right it's it's perceived that they did that on purpose, because what the lady asked was what industry uses glitter the most and when you ask what

Speaker 1 47:14

industry uses glitter the most. A company like glitter x can't just open up a file and give you the fucking 1500 names of companies that are in that industry, so they're're going to just tell you some vague shit. Now, could the person have used better words, probably, so it didn't sound as menacing and ominous as it did. But which company is buying? Yeah, chupple. Well, that's the thing is. They probably don't even really know either, because what industry? Well, there's 1500 people in the category of blank industry yeah we can't.

Speaker 1 47:47

Just it's going to take us a long time to figure out what you, out of these 1500 people, are actually buying the most. I just don't have that information on me, that's good just said that that's fair.

Speaker 1 47:55

No, left it ominous and spooky. So chuppo kind of goes into that a little bit as well. Um, that's why I say we kind of get an answer who is buying up glitter the most? It's third party government contractors. It's kind of get an answer. Who is buying up glitter the most? It's third party government contractors. It's kind of a boring answer.

Speaker 2 48:09

Yeah.

Speaker 1 48:10

But at the same time it's still a mystery, because what are they still doing with it? Where's it going? That is the mystery. Is it for microtagons? I don't give a shit who's buying it. I want to know what they're using it for.

Glitter Conspiracy Theories and Shortages

Speaker 2 48:22

Also is that, I guess using it for also, is that? I guess my thing is is like is that true? Because who knows my? My question is if, okay, if glitter is being used for something as harmless, as like and I say harmless with a grain of salt, because we're talking about fucking explosives and like combat. However, the glitter and the explosive is not the thing doing like the killing. It's simply there to track where it came from. You know what I mean? Yeah, and I, I want to. Why, why would you, why would you go through so many, so many hoops just to reveal that? And especially if, if, that could have been revealed from the get-go with a different question, because I'm sure that they are tired of answering the question of who is the number one buyer. Yeah, for all you know it's fucking colgate.

Speaker 1 49:11

You know right, who knows?

Speaker 2 49:12

but I'm like I don't know it doesn't make sense to me that they would like skirt the subject so much just to come back and say like, oh, it's fucking regular things and there are some.

Speaker 1 49:22

There are some people like there's a podcast I mentioned it before but there's a podcast called Endless Thread. That's the podcast that I was talking about before that I forgot the name of. Oh yeah, they're the ones that said like oh no, it's boat paint, boat paint. Definitively it's boating companies that are buying up all the glitter. They are the ones, according to Henry Reschman and Chuppel's research as well. So it seems Endless Thread didn't look as deep into it. But also, maybe they got bought out, maybe they got too close to it.

Speaker 2 49:55

I know Brook Inventions owns them now. Who honestly knows they're paying them to say what they want.

Speaker 1 50:00

This is him. By the way, that's the old fuck he looks like he should be selling ice cream I don't know why with glitter in it oh, oh, there's glitter of ice cream, um, but yeah, they, honestly, I'm not gonna lie to you guys like, go watch it, it's, it's like it's interesting as shit it's about 30 minute um video by chupple c-h-u-p-p-l.

Speaker 1 50:21

Shout out to chupple. Um. They don't need my shout outs though, because they're a pretty big um channel, but anyway. Uh, you get the most information out of these guys like they. They straight up go the journalism route, which is fucking incredible um that's what I would love there's one last little bit that I want to talk about, and that is that we are in a glitter shortage oh, right, before you go into that, can I real?

Speaker 2 50:45

I'd write a sentence when I was looking through stuff about glitter that made me kind of depressed, but especially when you think of it like this glitter only exists so that things without glitter can have glitter put onto them. What do you mean? What do you mean? The only reason that glitter exists is so that things without glitter on them can have glitter put on them.

Speaker 1 51:11

I mean, I guess you can kind of say that about a couple things Like what Give me another one AstroTurf only exists, so you can put AstroTurf on things that don't have grass.

Speaker 2 51:20

No, it has very specific uses. So you don't have to cut your grass anymore, so you don't have to die when you have dogs because they pee on it. There's a reason you put AstroTurf down. There's a reason for glitter. What is that reason?

Speaker 1 51:33

To camouflage your plane so people can't see it, using ultraviolet light. Fair, fair, fair. It's to spray the dome, you idiot. Yes, to coat the dome and everything and stop the clowns.

Speaker 2 51:42

Isn't that a crazy consumption idea, Like the only reason this thing exists is so things that don't have this can have this. The only reason this exists is to make things shiny that aren't shiny, and that's the thing is because if it's already shiny, it doesn't fucking need it, and that actually goes into like the warehouse.

Speaker 1 52:00

I wonder as well how many things are actually shiny or we've been duped because they have glitter on them. They've been glittered.

Speaker 2 52:07

Yeah, well, that's. It's like the warehouse, the warehouse has been glittered. I mean it's hard to avoid they go over talking about uh like a walkthrough of the of this uh distribution center oh, the glitter x one.

Speaker 1 52:17

Yeah, the parking lot's all glitter, the inside like the forklifts are covered in it, apparently the floor is which is fun? I won't lie, very fun.

Speaker 2 52:25

That would be great, that'd be crazy. And apparently it's like, as you walk the entirety, like the colors of everything that you're seeing change Because, like I said, the thickness of it is less than a wavelength, like it's half of that, yeah. And so you take a step. You're seeing like six colors at once. It's that's gotta be a fucking. That's a safety hazard for forklifts, yeah, in a warehouse.

Speaker 1 52:46

Distract you. You're like whoa, we work in a warehouse. Yeah, we know how that is. You do not want to be distracted on a. I didn't even know that forklifts weigh like 14,000 pounds.

Speaker 2 52:55

Dude, it's like three cars put together it is.

Speaker 1 52:57

Didn't know that. Yeah, thought it was like the weight, say five. It's intense, yeah, um, but yeah, apparently we're in a glitter shortage, which could be bad. Why? Because then things that aren't shiny can't be shiny, we can't put things that don't have glitter.

Speaker 1 53:16

You know there's a big old conspiracy going around that we're in a glitter shortage, which means that, um, you know, some of the things that, like, military contracts are using the glitter for, um, are going to be opened up to the people's eyes. So, like that UV stuff, if anything's hidden, you might start seeing some things.

Speaker 2 53:33

Now, Are you saying Predator's real Predator, the telltale shimmer was glitter. He has a day job. He just doesn't want us to see him. No, he's an accountant. He's not trying to kill us.

Speaker 1 53:42

He's an accountant. He just didn't want to see it. But, like, foods are going to, foods are going to look a lot less appetizing than what you're used to, so you're not going to want to buy a certain food. You're not going to get the same quality out of like. Oh my God, yeah, is reality just glitter? Reality is just glitter. But, like all these, there's a bunch of like small things that go into it and if we run out of glitter, that can be devastating. But you know the fun thing there's no glitter shortage.

Speaker 2 54:06

That's made up.

Speaker 1 54:07

It was a tiktok that said that, um, that made that up, which went into, like, the mainstream conspiracies. And yeah, there's no glitter shortage. Because how could there be a glitter shortage? The shit's, it's fucking everywhere, fucking everywhere like you can't.

Speaker 1 54:19

I don't think you could ever run out of glitter because of, by definition, glitter is not just one substance, it is a it's all of it's all of it. You can make glitter out of metals. You can make glitter out of plastic you made out of paper. You can literally make glitter out of anything that shines yeah it's, and yes and no.

Speaker 2 54:38

I will say there is a very distinct difference between putting, like wrapping paper over something, yeah, and coating it in glitter, because it's almost like the glitter becomes the surf, the new surface to the substance you're putting it on, whereas it's not, because, like you, they went over to say you literally cannot remove glitter from from certain things, especially when it's been compacted and like and sat for a while. It's now permanently a part of that, whatever substance that is, which is also fucking crazy to me. Like it's, it's like cold fusion, but across different shiny, yeah, and across different mediums, which is also insane to me. I don't know, the whole thing had me really really fucking interested in hooked.

Speaker 1 55:17

Yeah, but again, I'm really upset that that's the answer. Like the the guy Henry, he does confirm. Like he confirms a lot of shit, like the boating one is a huge industry with it. Yeah, like he confirms. And if you go to uh glarex's website you can find them listing off things about like the boating industry and and they keep going into it like a lot. So like, again, watch the chupple video. We are not doing this justice. I feel at all like we tried, but we did just talk about the dome and crazy carnivorous clowns. So like, dude, who knows, like, if you're looking for the fun conspiracy side of it, listen to us, but if you want the hard-hitting journalism side of it, go check out fucking chupple, because they're going to give you a lot more of the um, the fine details, oh yeah, and and the way that they got there is the most fascinating fucking thing I'd love to do what they did and just fucking go I'm not smart enough to do what they did.

Speaker 2 56:05

We could stumble ass backwards into that that's true.

Speaker 1 56:07

We could just fuck up until we get there. We can fail upwards dude, that's.

Speaker 2 56:11

That is the motto of this show failing upwards consistently I'll fail into a, a pulitzer.

Speaker 1 56:18

Yeah, there you go no that.

Speaker 2 56:19

I think that'd be great if we could actually do like a journalistic style, but time constraints. I think we just do better. At the presentation and comedy side of things, I think we do better at staying our fucking shit up but, we're entertaining about it. So what are you going to do? And, hopefully, a little informative, hopefully, a little informative, hopefully.

Speaker 1 56:36

Like 30, 70.

Speaker 2 56:38

Yeah, and even that's pushing it.

Speaker 1 56:39

Yeah, you know we'd be able to do it.

Speaker 2 56:41

Honestly, the other ones offset it by negative 30 because we just make you dumber, we suck it out of your head.

Speaker 1 56:47

But you know what? You have a good time, that's all that matters. You know where else you'll have a good time.

Speaker 2 56:52

And if you guys want to have some existential dread. Last week we talked about the dead internet theory, albeit I am so sorry for the chair noises. If I can get around to it, I may try to go back and re-scrub that.

Speaker 1 59:42

Yeah, it's funny because we let out an episode on dead internet theory the exact same week.

Speaker 2 59:49

As Red Web.

Speaker 1 59:50

Red Web let out dead internet theory as theirs as well.

Speaker 2 59:53

And their editor.

Speaker 1 59:54

Their editor was like whoa Weird. But if that doesn't just show that the internet is dead, yeah, the irony in.

Speaker 2 1:00:02

That is not past me. All the squares make a circle.

Remain Paranoid

Speaker 1 1:00:05

All these squares do be making circles. Jason, do you have anything you want to say to people, beautiful people.

Speaker 2 1:00:11

As always, everybody, please fucking remain paranoid. I mean, I guess you can't really help that from listening to this, because if nothing else, we are going to go ahead and give you a paranoia complex and you're going to think everybody's out to get you. But they are.

Speaker 1 1:00:27

Yeah, and I'll say just have yourself a good time, take a shot of hypnotic or something with some glitter in it. That way you got glitter in your tummy, yeah, I tried, but they didn't have any.

Speaker 2 1:00:39

And then those carnivorous clowns will avoid you at all times. Jernine, you could have been on the show. We needed a Doug Just saying yeah.
