Dan Aykroyd walks his manager over the Niagara Falls and cooks eggs in the middle of the falls, while carrying his manager on his back. And it's a good thing he has a good stomach. Dan also talks about how many people have died trying to go over the falls and how many of them have died in the process of doing so. And he talks about a new invention he's working on that could make you feel like you're in a movie. And he gives us a quick run down of the history of people who have died at the bottom of the Falls and how they got there, and what they did to make it through the fall. And then he tells a story about how he's going to cook his manager's breakfast while carrying him across the falls with a small stove and a wheelbarrow, and the whole thing is done while he's on the back of the manager's chair and all on the other end of the table. And that's not even half as funny as it sounds! Guests: Comedian and actor Joe Pesci (The Office) joins us to talk about his trip to the falls to cook breakfast, and how he got to the other side of the Great Falls.

00:00:24.000He walked over Niagara Falls several times.
00:00:26.000I know who you're talking about, yeah.
00:00:28.000He was a French tightrope walker, and one of the things he did, Joe, was one morning he said, I'm going to do this, but I'm going to take my manager...
00:00:37.000On my back, I'm going to take a small stove and I'm going to cook him breakfast in the middle of the falls, right over the falls.
00:00:56.000So he took his manager on the back, out to the falls, cooked him eggs right there, and then walked to the other end of the falls with a stove, his manager, all on his back.
00:01:04.000This is like, you know, these are feats that we hear about.
00:02:15.000Yeah, a thousand people died going over Niagara Falls, many of them suicides, and many of them, you know, just that went over in rafts, and that kid Roger who went over in a life jacket, and people in barrels who were actually intending to go over the falls and wanted to float down that far.
00:02:47.000Because they didn't run through the forest hunting.
00:02:49.000They took all of the meat that came through the Niagara River and went over the falls and was dashed at the bottom of the falls.
00:02:55.000The bears, the wolves, the moose, all of them who drowned in the falls, all this wildlife, and they just harvested the meat off the rocks at the bottom of the falls.
00:04:20.000We won the Perdexpo in Moscow for excellent taste out of 400 beverages.
00:04:24.000And what we do is we take peaches and cream corn from Chatham, Ontario.
00:04:29.000And we put it in the truck in the mash and we ship it 95% alcohol volume at that point and we take it over and we put it in the ferry boat and we bring it over to the distillery in Newfoundland, Canada.
00:04:39.000The last, one of the last state-owned stills in the world.
00:05:29.000And we put them, they put them in these packages and they put them into the vodka.
00:05:34.000We eliminated all of that and we have no additives at all.
00:05:37.000This is C2H506, just absolute ethyl alcohol, grain alcohol, purified, distilled in a carbon filtration system, not the one with the hose where they just blow it through.
00:05:49.000No, we distill and we filter and we pour it over Herkimer diamonds.
00:05:56.000We pour it over the Herkimer semi-precious stone, and the Herkimer semi-precious stone is one of our last purification processes.
00:06:03.000Now, if you asked a high school professor, what does pouring alcohol over diamonds do to the alcohol, they'd probably say, well, nothing, but...
00:06:10.000Our stones, after certain pores, a certain number of pores, they turn yellow, and we have to bleach them, clean them, or replace them.
00:06:16.000The Herkimer Diamond is found in an anomalous area of upstate New York, also in Afghanistan, and in Oaxaca, Mexico.
00:06:44.000We've done flavor profiles where we pour it over the stones and give it to people, and we don't pour it over the stones and give it to the people, and they like it better poured over the stones.
00:06:53.000Now, why I like the Herkimer Diamond is, of course, because it's near Griffiths Air Force Base, Rome, New York.
00:06:59.000And that was where a lot of scrambles went up in the 70s and 80s against...
00:07:04.000Whatever was coming and going in the mountains there, Pine Bluff, Pine Bush, New York.
00:08:24.000And Day of the Dead stuff, and so he painted that up.
00:08:29.000He's one of my oldest friends, and we met because we were working on Saturday Night Live, and my girlfriend there was Rosie Shuster, one of the writers, and we fell in love, and we had a great time, and wrote the show.
00:08:40.000We wrote Fred Garvin, Male Prostitute, and a lot of other things.
00:08:43.000And then I went away to do Blues Brothers and she said, I'm breaking up with you.
00:08:46.000And I said, well, for what and for who?
00:08:48.000Well, I met this artist, John Alexander.
00:08:50.000So she dumped me for him and now we're best friends and we'd like to find Rosie again.
00:14:10.000Then there's the Mitchell Hedges skull that's in Indiana.
00:14:14.000The man that took care of Anna at the end of her life eventually had it and got it.
00:14:19.000It sat in Grafton, Ontario for many years, and I never saw it, but people said when they walked into the room and she got There's one in Mexico City.
00:15:40.000You can get the pictures of the skulls up, the Smithsonian crystal heads, and the Smithsonian crystal heads you can get in Victoria Albert crystal head.
00:15:48.000Do they all have the same, similar type of markings?
00:15:56.000Now, you see, some of them are clearer.
00:15:59.000See, there's one at the British Museum.
00:16:03.000And there's some that are clearer and are more beautiful, and there's some that are rougher, like that one there, and the green and the orange one.
00:17:44.000I think that the intensity of the Hewlett-Packard scrutiny revealed that there were none of those marks, and that's why they were able to make their claim.
00:18:21.000Well, I think that she's probably in love with the skulls, even though they are not polished in her mind.
00:18:28.000I bet she loves them as much as we do.
00:18:30.000But the thing is, if you are a professional intellectual or someone who's a curator of fine artwork and ancient relics, you kind of have to be one of those people that dismisses anything preposterous.
00:18:46.000But there's no way you can sit down and say, Neil, Barney and Betty Hill were abducted by a flying saucer in 1957. He's not going to accept that.
00:18:55.000Because everything in his training, everything in his knowledge, everything that he knows about physics and science and propulsion and the universe and how to get from place to place, defies...
00:19:09.000I would say defies the theory that there are extraterrestrial advanced ships out there.
00:19:14.000It would be unprofessional for him to say...
00:19:19.000Okay, there's even a possibility that there were abductions.
00:19:22.000The Betty and Barney Hill story is very interesting, but there's no real evidence other than their testimony.
00:20:32.000Ben Simon's interviews with them under hypnosis, screaming, and he was just so frightened.
00:20:37.000And the Zeta Reticuli map, when the being Betty looked at the map and the being showed her a map as she was on her way out the door and she said, may I take this?
00:20:46.000And the being was going to give it to her, but then another one zipped up and said no.
00:20:52.000Zeta Reticuli is exactly the same place where Bob Lazar says they found those with the spaceships that they have at S4. Well, the little greys, Zeta Reticuli, Barney and Betty's abduction.
00:21:05.000You had Marjorie Fish, an amateur astronomer.
00:21:31.000And, you know, interesting things like when they got back to the...
00:21:34.000The house, the house was open and the keys to the house were in on the table with leaves so that they might have dropped them at the site and the beings returned them.
00:22:00.000He was a designer, a painter, and a lovely man.
00:22:03.000And he was one of the first people to start to deal with the trauma of abductees.
00:22:07.000He got a reputation for being able to interview them, hypnotize them, interview them, and get their stories and empathize and sympathize with them.
00:22:14.000And he said that in some cases that he studied, the beings would grab a man from somewhere in America...
00:22:20.000And grab a woman and out of their cars, out of their clothes, put them up, test them, draw over, draw sperm, fluids, whatever they were doing.
00:22:28.000And then the woman would wake up in the man's shoes or a different car.
00:22:34.000Almost as if the beings were finished with them.
00:22:45.000If you catch a trout, if you catch a big rainbow trout and you're fly fishing and you've got a barbless hook, you know, most people, if you go to Montana, go to the Gallatin River, shout out to the Gallatin.
00:24:01.000But this is what I want people to consider, because most people that are pragmatic, reasonable people that don't want to be ridiculed, they look at these stories and they go, oh, come on, people are full of shit.
00:24:27.000And if it was happening, these would be completely unique, unusual occurrences, out of nowhere, where someone would come down, they would do something, and they would be leaving the person.
00:24:38.000With this thought and this memory and this inability to describe it with normal words.
00:24:44.000If you were taken aboard a spaceship and you were some reptilian beings that were three feet tall, were running experiments on you and you were paralyzed and then they released you back on Earth.
00:24:54.000What words do you have available to you to describe this experience in a way that, like, if you tell me, hey, Joe, I went whitewater rafting with my kids.
00:27:20.000And there were 300 abductees there, some who he'd interviewed with, some he had not, but who were there for interested to find out more about their experience.
00:27:30.000And one guy got up and said, he had one arm, and I don't know whether that was related.
00:27:34.000I don't think it was related to the experience, but he said, I'm a Wall Street broker.
00:27:40.000I was in Long Island Sound a few years ago, and a blue light hit me, and I had missing time of about five or six hours.
00:27:48.000But in it, I have filtrated memories of beings addressing me and telling me that I was powerful and influential and I could help the planet survive.
00:27:56.000And they put me back in my ship and I woke up.
00:27:58.000And he said, I'm waiting for them to come back.
00:28:39.000Do you think this was initiated by the detonation of the atomic bombs at Hiroshima and Nagasaki where they decided, okay, these fucking monkeys are doing some stupid shit.
00:28:48.000We need to go down there and see what's up and see if there's imminent danger to the cosmos.
00:28:53.000Let's find out what kind of capabilities they have.
00:28:55.000Because if you listen to Lazar or if you believe the work of Zechariah Sitchin or any of the people that believe that human beings were engineered...
00:29:04.000The reason why there's this giant leap between us and the rest of the primates on the planet is because something came down and manipulated our genetics.
00:29:16.000Well, the movie Mission to Mars with Tim Robbins.
00:30:24.000The Triangle and Delta crafts are very, very interesting, but the Tinley Park incidents of the 80s, and with Sam Aranto as the investigator there from UFON, these things would park over the family barbecue for about half an hour, and, you know,
00:30:40.000families in suburbs were looking up at the sky being blotted out by these things parking above them.
00:30:46.000I think it comes down to, I don't think these beings, well, Lord Hill Norton said there were 23 different species visiting the planet in 23 different types of ships.
00:30:55.000I don't think they want a formal relationship with people on Earth.
00:30:58.000They want an informal, secret relationship.
00:31:00.000I think they probably have one with black elements of the Air Force and the government.
00:31:11.000His theory is that the Roswell event may have been precipitated by the Trinity explosion because there was such an interdimensional disturbance of the atoms being split and that explosion.
00:31:22.000That saucer there that went down in 1947 may have...
00:31:27.000May have been influenced somehow negatively by that explosion.
00:31:58.000After talking to him for three hours and having dinner with him the night before, I used to believe I had the best bullshit meter in the world, but as I've gotten older, I've gotten more honest.
00:33:00.000He talked openly about it in the 90s that he had managed to weasel some away from the area S4, and they think that he still has it.
00:33:09.000There were some experiments that he had done that George Knapp had actually filmed that had showed some really bizarre distortions using this stuff, and then it was able to...
00:33:19.000It was, I gotta remember exactly what it did that they showed, but they did some experiences like steam or smoke or something like that where they showed element 115 emitting some sort of a...
00:35:27.000My mother worked for the Ministry of Munitions and Supply in World War II for the minister and she was suborned to work with the aircraft production for the hurricane.
00:35:41.000She was in charge of working with getting the hurricane fuselages built in Canada for the hurricane fighter plane.
00:35:48.000So she was in the world of aviation and in 1947 she was walking down Spark Street in Ottawa And she looked up in the sky and she sort of said, something told me to look up.
00:35:59.000And she said she saw what looked like a Christmas tree ornament just winking above the street about four or five hundred feet, winking on and off, red, green, white, red, green, white.
00:36:09.000And she thought, that's odd, you know?
00:36:10.000And then she looked at it and she said, it just zipped off in the sky and disappeared.
00:36:14.000And around the house after that point, We always had articles.
00:36:42.000I got up to take a leak on the balcony there, and I looked up in the sky, and about 100,000 feet up, I saw two glowing discs flying in echelon formation.
00:37:20.000Maybe 20,000 miles an hour are they doing because they went across the sky like just in a zigzag formation.
00:37:26.000So if I screamed to my wife, my friends, they got up, the three of us saw it, and I said, you know, and they all knew it was something unusual.
00:39:01.000Outside the window, we looked at it, big gray thing with these bulbs underneath and then it slowly turned and we saw the full length of it and then it went around the corner.
00:39:10.000We ran out in the hall and we just watched it drift kind of sideways off over the St. Lawrence River and disappear.
00:39:38.000And then the fourth one that I saw, I was on my motorcycle leaving town to go at Kingston, Ontario, where I live there, and I was driving out of the farm gate.
00:39:47.000And I saw there's a power line that runs on the opposite farm there across the road, and I saw this winking red light just moving slowly along the top of the power pylons, and I thought, well, you know, helicopters, they do that kind of work where they string power lines, but they don't really do it at night.
00:40:03.000I thought, that's got to be a chopper, a hydro chopper, like a hydro company chopper watching the power lines checking for faults, or I don't know.
00:40:11.000And it goes along like this, and I'm watching it, and I stop the bike, you know, and I'm watching.
00:41:18.000Just a mass of kind of metallic and lights, and it just shines this light on me, and I turn the lights on the bike on, and then turn them off, and then it winked the light off, and it just drifted out over the field, and just drifted awfully.
00:41:33.000So you've had three different instances.
00:41:35.000And then one night, well, one night I was in bed with my wife.
00:41:53.000Next day, all over the radio of upstate New York, they talked about A big pink spiral in the sky that had appeared to upstate northeastern Ontario and upstate New York.
00:42:06.000And they were saying, oh, it was a Chinese rocket.
00:42:20.000And then an interesting thing happened where I was doing a show called Out There, Beyond Belief, and we were doing it over there for Bonnie Hammer over there at the Sci-Fi Channel.
00:42:33.000And it was an interview show where I talked to Doug Meldrum, the Sasquatch expert, and all kinds of...
00:43:28.000Yeah, but it was supposed to be a show on Sci-Fi Channel, an interview show, where I'd interviewed everybody, you know, all the people in the field of cryptozoology and sci-fi and science fiction and theory and UFOs.
00:43:41.000I had Stephen Greer and Stephen Bassett on that same day.
00:43:44.000I've had Stephen Greer on the show, too.
00:44:08.000Now, maybe Ms. Hammer made a decision, you know, talk shows aren't really our thing, or Ackroyd's not really what we want on our network, or...
00:44:18.000Why that day, when I was going to do this vivid, you know, UFO show that was going to go out on the air eventually, why then did it get cancelled?
00:45:00.000Listen, sci-fi is all about those shows.
00:45:03.000I mean, I watched an episode of sci-fi where there's a bunch of people that claim to be trapped in a cabin in Maine because werewolves were outside.
00:45:10.000It's just like, they're into nonsense.
00:45:32.000And I would always like to know what happened.
00:45:35.000Did someone call you, Bonnie, and say, you know, don't bring this up now?
00:45:38.000I just don't think anyone's going to call people about UFOs.
00:45:40.000I mean, if they're going to make phone calls, they're going to, you know, take out Don Lemon or something because he talks shit about Trump.
00:47:16.000They appear every night and they bounce around on the horizon.
00:47:19.000They go up and down and back and forth.
00:47:21.000People say, oh, there are headlights from different cars on the highway, but the Air Force, the state police, they've all tried to figure out what they are, and they just don't know what the Marfa lights are, and they're recognized by the state of Texas as a paranormal event.
00:49:38.000It's just like he was fabricating there, that guy.
00:49:40.000I'm sure there's a lot of people fabricating things, and I'm also sure there's a lot of people that believe they're telling a true story, but in fact, they're schizophrenic, or they have some issues.
00:49:50.000I think there's a lot of that going on, too.
00:49:52.000You know, Billy Meyer was doubted for many years.
00:53:42.000He said a saucer landed and he saw it land.
00:53:44.000Dan Aykroyd, everybody wants to be special.
00:53:47.000And one of the best ways to be special is for you to have a special moment with some special creatures from a special place and no one else can recognize whether or not you're telling the truth or not telling the truth.
00:53:57.000You talk about this and everybody wants to listen and they listen to you.
00:54:01.000They're totally fixated on everything you like to say.
00:55:47.000But this is what I want to say to people that are skeptical, and of course I'm skeptical.
00:55:51.000That's why I'm knocking holes in these things.
00:55:55.000If it did happen and you were left alone to try to explain to people something that is incredibly unique, very few people ever experience it, it would be so hard to get people to believe you.
00:56:09.000Well, that's why you have to go to a professional.
00:57:55.000And when you talk to a man like that, whose living was in debunking these things, and then after it was all over, he was compelled to communicate with the American public that there was a real situation going on.
00:58:12.000And Ken Arnold, his sighting is pretty compelling.
00:58:15.000So I don't think they want to form a relationship with us.
00:58:19.000I think they're coming and going like taxis and they have been since the beginning of the existence of life on this planet or the existence of this planet.
00:58:26.000Do you think they engineered human beings?
00:58:28.000Well, that Mission to Mars movie is one of NASA employees' favorite movies.
00:58:42.000It's about the Mission to Mars and them discovering there was a civilization there and that perhaps we were helped along in our development.
01:00:11.000There's a story that Neil Armstrong was at a conference in France, in a hotel room, and there was a woman there who had been previously head of MI6, and she was a part of this cocktail party.
01:00:23.000And she overheard a conversation between Neil Armstrong and another gentleman who was in the intelligence service.
01:00:29.000And the guy was asking him about the moon landing.
01:00:32.000And Neil said, you know, there was a frequency that we switched to to talk about other things that were happening at that time.
01:02:28.000And then what he did was he compared them against the length of the tether, which was a mile long, and said these things would have had to have been You know, quite large.
01:04:07.000Some are malevolent to us, some are malevolent.
01:04:10.000What we have to get past is, okay, now that we know that, how will that help human transformation?
01:04:16.000Now, John Mack, at the session I was at at the Fifth Avenue Medical Institute, a woman got up and she said, I was a socialite in Massachusetts.
01:04:23.000All I cared about was money and spending money and where I could go and spend money and buying things.
01:04:29.000And one afternoon, I was in my garden and an orange orb came into the garden and a figure got out.
01:04:56.000He's head of MUFON. And why is Jan Harzan...
01:05:00.000An IBM, ex-IBM mainframe engineer, head of MUFON, because when he was a boy in Marin County, California, he and his brother were left for the weekend.
01:05:10.000He was a 12-year-old brother, and he was 10. An orange orb dropped into his backyard, and two beings got out and played with them for several hours, and then he came back the next day.
01:05:22.000And Jan said, I have to go into science.
01:06:25.000Yeah, that's a great one because it really took the real science of what was going on and it took all of the stories that were reported in Bruce's book here and kind of distilled them into a theory of what might be happening.
01:06:38.000How much of your day do you spend thinking about this?
01:06:41.000Well, I am an eternal researcher and I'm always looking for stories.
01:06:45.000I love the MUFON stuff that's coming out.
01:06:48.000You know, my family was into paranormal research.
01:08:23.000Well, he's an expert debunker of all this stuff.
01:08:26.000Yeah, super skeptical star of Showtime's bullshit.
01:08:29.000I'd love to have Penn Jillette tell me what he thinks of the Fox sisters, why they went around the world with a spirit that performed with them.
01:09:12.000Can you imagine shutting down your whole system, going into a trance, reaching the other side, having that entity come through the other side, use your body, use your fluids, use everything, and then abandon you after, and then just go.
01:12:12.000I think that reincarnation is also a fascinating concept that's repeated in many different cultures, and I wonder why.
01:12:20.000There's a great Tyler Childers song called Born Again, and it's about things living and dying and being reincarnated in different times.
01:12:33.000I think that's very attractive to people, the idea that our physical body is one thing, but the spiritual body is something entirely different.
01:12:41.000Well, I think that, you know, atheists...
01:19:34.000And that they took this small amount of dimethyltryptamine from this fire and inhaled it and had this profound religious experience like I've experienced, like many people have experienced, that have taken it.
01:19:48.000One thing that happens when you do this is you're confronted with entities.
01:19:53.000Now, I don't know what these things are, but they seem to be communicating with you, and they seem to be talking to you, and they seem to know everything about you.
01:20:00.000So the question is, is that really your subconscious?
01:20:03.000Is this what you know about yourself stripped down to some very bare, raw form?
01:20:10.000And then confronted with the psychedelics that perturb your visual cortex.
01:20:16.000So they provide you with all these intense visualizations.
01:20:19.000Or is it a chemical portal to another dimension?
01:20:57.000Well, no, I think they found him, but he had vanished for a while.
01:20:59.000H.P. Lovecraft, maybe look up Grave or Demise.
01:21:03.000But, you know, he wrote about geometric shapes.
01:21:07.000He wrote about interdimensional geometric shapes and getting to a space where you saw the universe in terms of geometry and diamond-shaped things and multi-patterns and colors and Do you know the artist Alex Gray?
01:22:09.000Well, a lot of the most profound psychedelic experiences are the compounds.
01:22:16.000They mimic normal human neurochemistry.
01:22:20.000Like dimethyltryptamine, it's a natural occurring compound in the human brain.
01:22:25.000It's produced by your liver, your lungs, and there's a lot of evidence, at least in mammals, it's produced by your pineal gland, which is literally your third eye.
01:22:48.000Well, that's what the, you know, motorcycle ice racing, you get a little small bike like a Jawa CZ and you put the metal rims with the studs and then you race around the ice.
01:22:57.000I never did it, but I saw it and I think I was, that's what I went to.
01:23:02.000My friend said, hey, take one of these and we'll have a better time.
01:23:30.000Well, if it was, it doesn't work because your body produces monoamine oxidase and the only way that DMT works orally is if you take an MAO inhibitor.
01:25:13.000But that's one of the things that made me more open to the idea of extraterrestrials, but more closed off to the ideas of these stories that people tell.
01:25:23.000Because I felt like these stories that people tell were so crude, it was almost like they were trying to...
01:26:40.000The thing about it is that if these were unique occurrences that only happen once every 10 years or something like that, and very rarely, and it did happen, and you were left with this memory and this thing, go try telling it to people that haven't experienced it.
01:26:54.000Good luck getting them to believe you.
01:26:55.000You need people, just like you experienced trauma, a car accident, you need people around you who love you to listen to you and say, I believe you and I want to help you.
01:28:24.000But, you know, these guys who come on, like Michael Shermer and other people and Philip Klass, they come on and they try to debunk these UFO stories, but they don't have their facts straight.
01:30:01.000Neil Tyson will refer to the multiverse, happily and comfortably.
01:30:05.000Well, he also will refer to the concept that not only is the universe infinite, but what infinity truly means is the real version of infinite is not just it's really big, but it's that it's so big that there are an infinite numbers of Dan Aykroyds,
01:30:23.000Joe Rogans, and Jamie Vernons in a room.
01:30:26.000And there's an infinite number of versions of this conversation that we're having.
01:30:30.000There was a philosophy, a philosopher a few years ago, he believed that everything that you think, like if I think, okay, I want to go steal a Cadillac, well, in another dimension, I've stolen that Cadillac and I've done that.
01:30:42.000You know, and he believed that everything we think can become reality in another dimension and does become reality in another dimension.
01:30:48.000There's so many different possibilities.
01:30:52.000It's impossible for our puny little brains to wrap our heads around.
01:30:55.000I had Nick Bosterman, who's a philosopher who is famous for his work on simulation theory and the concept of artificial intelligence and sentient artificial intelligence.
01:31:07.000He was freaking me out yesterday, where he was talking about, essentially, it's more probable that you are in a simulation than you're not in a simulation.
01:32:46.000And so many people are dissatisfied by their own existence that they want to do that.
01:32:49.000But they don't understand that by doing that, you are perpetuating this whole terrible cycle that you've been caught up in yourself.
01:32:57.000If you go out there hating on everybody and being shitty to everybody and throwing all this anger out there in the world...
01:33:03.000That you are literally poisoning yourself.
01:33:06.000There's a wonderful quote about jealousy that I think also applies to hate, is that it's one of the rare things that is ineffective on the person who's your target, but works on you instead.
01:33:19.000Like, if you're jealous, if there's a person out there like, oh, I wish I was living her life, and you're angry at her, like, it's not hurting her.
01:33:29.000It doesn't even No, that's like pissing in the wind.
01:33:34.000You piss in the wind, that piss is going to come right back on you.
01:33:36.000It's just hard for people to understand that there's techniques and there's strategies and there's philosophies that can help you steer through this world with a happier life.
01:35:52.000Come up with designs and they were influenced in a way that they created these iconic images that if you looked at a 1960s car, those 1960s cars are so incredibly valuable and cherished.
01:36:06.000Whereas late 1970s, you get a 1979 car, nobody gives a fuck about that car.
01:36:12.000Like in 10 years, the cars went from being amazing to dog shit.
01:36:16.000The 70s were pretty bad for automobiles.
01:39:22.000My regular everyday driver, and this will be completely boring to most people on the planet, I have a 2011 Ultimate Edition Mercury Grand Marquis Luxury Sport four-door sedan.
01:39:38.000The New York Times said when the production of the big Fords were discontinued, the big Grand Marquis, when they were discontinued in 2011, they went out of the business.
01:39:49.000The New York Times said, you've always liked one, but you never really wanted one.
01:39:55.000Well, I found two of them in upstate New York.
01:39:59.000And they used to be, and I found them, and I looked, I was driving in Auburn, New York, and I saw, I was whipping by in this town on my way down, and I saw these two cars sitting there with snow, and I looked, I liked that Grand Marquis, so I found out about them.
01:40:15.000Bought them, found out they were both equipped by the U.S. State Department motor pool for a diplomatic career.
01:40:22.000They had lights and sirens in them, and they had work done on the motors.
01:42:47.000The problem is that she loves her laptop so much that if that big screen in the Tesla, that big screen, I think she'd be on that more than driving.
01:43:11.000But the guy, my friend, he has a Tesla there in Toronto, and he said he programmed it in downtown Toronto, and it drove him to Kingston City Hall and parked in front of the City Hall.
01:44:20.000He's one of the best people in the industry.
01:44:21.000Well, one of the things I told him, I was like, you are so much happier and more interesting when you're talking about cars than you ever were when you were hosting The Tonight Show.
01:44:31.000He's a great host of The Tonight Show, but The Tonight Show is basically you are running a commercial for other people's records.
01:44:38.000Yeah, for their movies, their television shows that they have coming out, and you're there to sort of be the entertaining guy, and he was wonderful at it.
01:45:57.000I support my people in the industry, but I can tell you right now, and I'm going to get in trouble for this, that's my vote for Beck's picture right now.
01:47:25.000Really, you know, he treated the movie with a tribute, kind of legacy, respect, and there were some great new spirits in there, and the girls were great.
01:47:34.000Now Ivan Reitman's son, Jason, has written a new movie called, well, it's going to be Ghostbusters, the third movie.
01:49:45.000I figure while I can still move, I'll still dance and move.
01:49:49.000I'm not going to sing from a chair like Solomon Burke.
01:49:54.000Your real interests, though, they're spread apart.
01:49:58.000You have a lot of different things going on.
01:50:00.000You seem to be a guy who's got freedom and independence, which is a beautiful thing to see.
01:50:06.000Well, I don't have a desk job, which I'm happy of.
01:50:08.000But you're pursuing your vodka company.
01:50:12.000I mean, you're not profiting off of this UFO research, but you're obviously balls deep in it.
01:50:18.000It's just fun because it's entertaining and I think it's enlightening and if people want to come to me and get my view of it, I'm happy to present my view, you know, and I'm happy to hear stories and I'm happy to hear skeptics come forward and tell me why the thing I saw when I was on my motorcycle was not a UFO. Right.
01:54:33.000See, what it is is the engine is behind the passengers in between the passengers and the rear wheel, whereas the other ones, it's in the front trunk.
01:56:14.000Well, there's all kinds of names we don't see anymore, like especially from the 30s, you know, the Packard, the Graham Page, the Diana Moon, the Rio.
01:56:21.000It's just a bummer when, like, the GTO, you know, Pontiac GTO's gone, you know?
01:57:00.000Yeah, and got pretty significant accidents.
01:57:02.000And one guy that I know got hit by a car by an old man who ran a red light and T-boned him and sent him flying through the air and snapped his femur.
01:57:12.000I've been riding since I was 19. You ride in L.A.? I can ride anywhere, but I prefer to ride in the country up north in Canada, you know, where I'm living.
01:57:22.000Half and half here, half there, half there.
01:57:25.000L.A.? A little more in the States because of the travel with the band and that, but I'm there with my dad in Canada a lot, and we have the old family farm with the haunted farmhouse.
01:57:36.000Well, let me say that there's residual energy from the people who've lived there in the past.
01:57:42.000So you hear footsteps and voices and creaks and doors closing and that, and many people have had experiences in it.
01:57:47.000There's a reason why people don't want to live in a house where people were murdered.
01:57:52.000No one was killed in that farmhouse, but many people passed there.
01:57:56.000But even that, that weirds people out, but absolutely, if you have a house where people were murdered, and this is why there's laws, you have to divulge.
01:58:06.000It wasn't because of a murder, but when I sold our house in Los Angeles, we lived in Mama Cass's old estate in Woodrow Wilson Drive, and we sold it to Beverly D'Angelo, and she's been on the Celebrity Ghost Show talking about the spirits that were in that house.
01:59:33.000Yes, and there were two spirits that might have been there.
01:59:36.000Maybe Mama Cass herself, although she died in London.
01:59:39.000And then there was another guy that apparently, a rumor was he died of a drug overdose at a party, and they buried him in the hillside.
01:59:47.000And my daughter saw him walking with a little red-haired girl down the hall once, and we think that he might have been there.
01:59:56.000But anyway, when we sold the house to Beverly, there was a, right in the California real estate document that we had to sign, by law, you have to divulge anything.
02:00:44.000But the California, you know, just that the state of California requires that in their real estate documents, it's pretty compelling evidence that there's something going on there, too.
02:00:53.000Or compelling evidence that people are paranoid and they want people to...
02:00:55.000Well, I think we can accept that ghosts and spirits also have reality, I think.
02:01:36.000There's a scene in the Ghostbusters movie where I'm lying down in an old fort and then this ghost hovers over me and in the director's cut I think the belt comes off and the pants come down.
02:03:12.000Well, you know, yes, there's Ed Davis and Abraham Lincoln were partners, and they were law partners, and they slept in the same bed many times when they were on the road, yeah.
02:03:22.000Well, it was probably cold as fuck back then, and it was hard to keep the room heated.
02:05:18.000But it's been, you know, Yeti, the Yak and Yeti story, you know, the Yeti story, and just the, around the world, just the sightings that people have had.
02:06:34.000I mean, I'm not going to sit here and argue on behalf of Mothman, but it's an intriguing story because...
02:06:40.000When you have multiple witnesses, as far as the UFO, I will go back to Goodfoot, but the aerial encounter, the school children at the aerial school in Zimbabwe in the 90s.
02:06:55.000Two beings landed in two different craft, and they encountered these school children all in elementary school.
02:07:01.000And now they've come back, and they're interviewing them now in their adult time.
02:07:04.000And it's amazing how their stories synchronize.
02:07:06.000Why would all of them conspire to make something up?
02:07:08.000Okay, we're dealing with two different things.
02:07:10.000And the Mothman, there were four really credible kids there that said they saw it.
02:07:15.000The UFO thing is less preposterous than anything because we are currently sending spaceships into orbit.
02:07:24.000We are currently sending probes to Mars.
02:07:27.000We're involved, deeply involved in the exploration of our solar system, at least with these robots and drones and things that we can control.
02:09:53.000There's one scientist that has literally risked his reputation, and his whole fucking credibility is in demise because he decided that he was going to spend his life looking for the giant sloth.
02:10:06.000And these indigenous people have pointed him in the right direction, and they've recognized that there's dung that seems to be sloth dung that they've found, and they're trying to point him towards where these things are.
02:10:18.000And the giant sloth was a real creature.
02:10:21.000But there's no real evidence that the giant sloth is currently alive.
02:10:25.000But the thing is, the vast wilderness of the Amazon rainforest is so impenetrable.
02:10:31.000It would be like trying to walk across the earth and make a good audit of all the creatures that are on it.
02:10:39.000And, you know, many species are dying on this planet right now for various reasons, but there are many that are being discovered we never even knew about before.
02:10:47.000And, you know, the northwestern forests are pretty impenetrable, too.
02:10:50.000Yes, that's what makes it interesting, is that the location of the area where if the thing crossed the Bering Land Bridge and it came into the United States, that's exactly where it would be.
02:11:03.000It would be in that Pacific Northwest because that's, you know, as you walk down from Alaska to Canada.
02:11:07.000We've heard the stories of loggers going in there and seeing them or sensing them or, you know, because they're being driven out of their environment.
02:11:13.000There's some hostile accident logging companies that they think have been perpetrated by, you know, by the Sasquatch.
02:11:21.000Nobody wants to believe in Bigfoot more than me.
02:11:23.000I worked up in the Northwest Territories.
02:11:26.000I was a flex track assistant mechanic on tundra crawlers and I was a road surveyor.
02:11:30.000When I was a kid, I worked for the Department of Public Works, and we were up there along the Nahanni River, the Headless River, where explorers would go, and they'd find their heads, and they'd never come back.
02:11:45.000The Headless Valley, the Headless River, Nahanni River, and H-A-N-N-I. When I went up there and was with the survey people, there had been guys who had been up there years before me, and they said that Sasquatch was a common thing that was spoken about among the natives and among the survey crews up there.
02:12:01.000Did you ever see the Bobcat Goldthwait movie, Willow Creek?
02:12:43.000Look, man, to see something like that, a bipedal hominid that has avoided detection for hundreds if not thousands of years would be amazing.
02:13:46.000I think that's because if we all agree and scientists agree that this Gigantopithecus was a real thing, if that is the case, then it's entirely possible that at one point in time, human beings were in direct contact with them on a regular basis and those stories have been passed down through generation after generation.
02:14:05.000The real question is, are they still here?
02:14:07.000Because the people that are telling you these stories, like when we talk about people in North America, it's widely accepted that most Native Americans, they share a lot of genetics with people from Siberia.
02:14:21.000Because Siberia is what's close to the Bering Land Bridge.
02:15:11.000And this is a completely new discovery that people found, that there was a totally different species of human being that was very small with a chimp-sized brain, but it was human.
02:15:22.000It used tools and it lived amongst humans.
02:16:56.000Even if I don't believe in Bigfoot or don't believe it's currently alive...
02:17:01.000I know too many people that are in the woods all the time.
02:17:04.000I know too many people that are hunters, that are in the woods, and they spend weeks and weeks in the woods, and none of them have seen shit.
02:17:10.000They see bears walking on two feet, though.
02:17:46.000I'm glad there's intelligent people that believe in silly shit.
02:17:50.000Well, you know, look, many people believe in the Virgin Mary, Kathleen, and that's quite a myth, and many believe in the Angel Moroni and the gold plates and the magic spectacles, and many believe in Xenu, you know, the Scientologist belief.
02:18:04.000So I'm not going to go and say, hey, oh, I dispute your belief there were no golden spectacles, or there were no golden, no, there was no Xenu, no, there was no Virgin Mary, no.
02:18:34.000But you know I'm saying that there's a tendency to just try to dismiss everything as being, like, believe the official story of every single thing.
