209. Cryptid Brick Sets w/ Alex of Northwoods Bricks

1
00:00:38,270 --> 00:00:40,110
Welcome back to The Infinite
Rabbit Hole.

2
00:00:40,110 --> 00:00:44,790
I'm your host, Jeremy.
Tonight we have a guest, special

3
00:00:44,790 --> 00:00:47,590
guest.
But before that, you get to hear

4
00:00:47,590 --> 00:00:50,950
about us.
Actually, you get to hear about

5
00:00:50,950 --> 00:00:53,430
Jeff because I don't have
anything really exciting to talk

6
00:00:53,430 --> 00:00:57,000
about, but Jeff does Jeff.
What's up?

7
00:00:57,360 --> 00:01:02,160
What'd you do today, buddy?
Dude OK so first we went me and

8
00:01:02,160 --> 00:01:07,840
creams, me and Chucky we went to
we went to NASA today bro.

9
00:01:08,280 --> 00:01:09,440
Spied on NASA, huh?
Well.

10
00:01:10,160 --> 00:01:12,240
We weren't spying.
It was more like an

11
00:01:12,240 --> 00:01:14,520
infiltration, right?
We were in there.

12
00:01:14,520 --> 00:01:16,320
We were in.
They let us in the gates.

13
00:01:17,480 --> 00:01:20,320
By infiltration means that you
you went up, you bought a

14
00:01:20,320 --> 00:01:24,840
ticket.
Listen, we don't have to get

15
00:01:24,840 --> 00:01:26,840
into the nitty gritty about the
whole thing.

16
00:01:27,000 --> 00:01:28,800
All you need to know is that we
went in there.

17
00:01:29,040 --> 00:01:31,120
You swiped your.
Credit card, they have all your

18
00:01:31,120 --> 00:01:33,960
information now.
Listen, I was prepared to ask

19
00:01:33,960 --> 00:01:37,280
the hard questions like I even
we found the lady, she had a, a

20
00:01:37,320 --> 00:01:40,640
picture on the wall and, and in
her title was like director of

21
00:01:42,160 --> 00:01:44,000
the budget or something, I don't
know.

22
00:01:44,000 --> 00:01:45,320
So we were like, where is this
lady?

23
00:01:45,320 --> 00:01:49,280
I want to talk to her $60
million a day situation.

24
00:01:49,280 --> 00:01:54,760
But no, we ended up having a
pretty decent time and we became

25
00:01:54,760 --> 00:01:58,200
astronauts.
Dude, we're we, we succumbed.

26
00:01:58,200 --> 00:02:01,920
Yeah, you did.
We succumbed to the shilling.

27
00:02:02,160 --> 00:02:03,840
You are a shill.
Look at you.

28
00:02:04,440 --> 00:02:10,639
Now the earth is no longer flat.
That's all.

29
00:02:11,280 --> 00:02:14,120
All right, look at you.
Falling in the line like a good

30
00:02:14,120 --> 00:02:16,000
boy.
I like.

31
00:02:16,000 --> 00:02:17,360
You're welcome.
Look at you.

32
00:02:18,040 --> 00:02:22,160
Somebody in our Speaking of this
last week me and Creeper were

33
00:02:22,160 --> 00:02:25,040
doing a shadow band episode and
like right at the end some dill

34
00:02:25,040 --> 00:02:28,400
hole on YouTube was like these
guys are CIA shills, this is a

35
00:02:28,400 --> 00:02:31,640
shill channel.
And then he just like logged off

36
00:02:31,680 --> 00:02:33,640
and I'm like bro, who is this
guy?

37
00:02:33,640 --> 00:02:36,800
And like where have you been for
the last five years dude?

38
00:02:37,960 --> 00:02:41,560
Anyways, carry on.
Anyways, all right, well, now

39
00:02:41,560 --> 00:02:47,000
that we all know that Jeff has
had his shill initiation and he

40
00:02:47,160 --> 00:02:51,280
officially understands that
space is real and that the Earth

41
00:02:51,280 --> 00:02:56,800
is round and he'll he'll fess up
and and tell everybody.

42
00:02:56,800 --> 00:03:02,440
So let's go ahead and yeah, he
does.

43
00:03:02,800 --> 00:03:04,680
All right, let's go ahead and
introduce our guest for the

44
00:03:04,680 --> 00:03:10,600
night.
We have the owner of Northwood

45
00:03:10,600 --> 00:03:13,640
Bricks.
They specialize in these guys

46
00:03:13,640 --> 00:03:16,560
right here.
If you are watching on Twitch,

47
00:03:16,560 --> 00:03:20,200
YouTube or any other video
platform that we that we play on

48
00:03:20,200 --> 00:03:26,640
including Spotify when it when
the episode drops, Alex owns the

49
00:03:26,640 --> 00:03:29,960
company that does these guys
right here.

50
00:03:31,560 --> 00:03:33,840
This is Mothman.
How cool is that?

51
00:03:34,560 --> 00:03:36,520
How freaking cool is that?
Go ahead, Jeff.

52
00:03:36,560 --> 00:03:38,200
How cool is that?
That's pretty cool.

53
00:03:38,200 --> 00:03:39,800
I was actually looking at your
website and I was like, did I

54
00:03:39,800 --> 00:03:41,840
want to buy some of these?
Right.

55
00:03:42,240 --> 00:03:44,840
How freaking cool is that?
And then I got the I got the

56
00:03:44,840 --> 00:03:47,080
Hodag.
Look at the Hodag, man.

57
00:03:47,560 --> 00:03:51,840
Look at them.
Are you going to, are you good?

58
00:03:51,840 --> 00:03:53,720
Well, I guess we'll get into
we'll talk more about it.

59
00:03:53,720 --> 00:03:56,800
But you got more coming down the
pipe, right?

60
00:03:56,800 --> 00:03:59,240
You got some other some other
monsters coming.

61
00:04:00,360 --> 00:04:04,000
We do.
We've got got some exciting

62
00:04:04,000 --> 00:04:08,800
things coming out in 2025.
The first one we've got coming

63
00:04:08,800 --> 00:04:13,840
out will be a Wendigo.
Now, OK, cool.

64
00:04:13,840 --> 00:04:16,560
So let's let's talk about that
for a second.

65
00:04:16,640 --> 00:04:20,600
Which one are you going with?
Are you going with the native

66
00:04:20,600 --> 00:04:22,960
lore kind?
Of.

67
00:04:24,720 --> 00:04:26,560
The this is this is the show for
this, right?

68
00:04:27,040 --> 00:04:30,800
Are are you going with the
native lore frozen zombie spirit

69
00:04:30,800 --> 00:04:36,480
kind of Wendigo or are you going
with the new age stag head

70
00:04:37,680 --> 00:04:39,960
version?
What you going with there man?

71
00:04:41,000 --> 00:04:43,200
We actually went with a little
bit of a combination.

72
00:04:43,720 --> 00:04:50,600
We we teamed up with Chad Lewis,
who is a investigator who heard

73
00:04:50,600 --> 00:04:53,880
of him and you know, kind of
worked with him.

74
00:04:54,400 --> 00:05:00,280
When Diigo is sensitive, one of
the more sensitive cryptids out

75
00:05:00,280 --> 00:05:02,200
there.
So we wanted to make sure we

76
00:05:02,200 --> 00:05:08,080
were very respectful to the
history of the Wendy go, but

77
00:05:08,080 --> 00:05:11,280
still celebrate, you know, the
weirdness and scariness of it.

78
00:05:11,960 --> 00:05:20,200
So it's it's got the stag head,
but we still have the icy eyes.

79
00:05:20,200 --> 00:05:25,760
We've got an icy heart and try
to represent some of the the

80
00:05:25,760 --> 00:05:30,360
lanky, long scariness of a
traditional Wendigo.

81
00:05:30,720 --> 00:05:34,200
Hey Jeff, can I can I increase
the size of his?

82
00:05:34,840 --> 00:05:38,440
Yeah, go to layout and then go
to.

83
00:05:40,280 --> 00:05:42,440
Full screen speaker.
There you go all.

84
00:05:42,880 --> 00:05:47,880
Right, go ahead Alex arc.
No, that's about all I had to

85
00:05:47,880 --> 00:05:48,240
say.
Oh.

86
00:05:48,800 --> 00:05:51,280
Man, check him out.
That thing's freaking cool.

87
00:05:52,360 --> 00:05:56,440
So this is the the prototype.
So some of them like the hips

88
00:05:56,440 --> 00:05:59,200
are white.
That's not going to be white

89
00:05:59,200 --> 00:06:02,280
when it actually gets released.
It's just not a color that's

90
00:06:02,280 --> 00:06:07,000
available until we have it
customly molded for us.

91
00:06:07,880 --> 00:06:10,280
Oh yeah, dude, check that out.
That is we.

92
00:06:10,480 --> 00:06:13,520
Get custom Lego parts molded for
you guys.

93
00:06:14,560 --> 00:06:18,520
Technically not Lego LEGO's a
brand just like Phoenix is a

94
00:06:18,520 --> 00:06:24,200
tissue.
But we we have custom the colors

95
00:06:24,200 --> 00:06:28,680
made in, he says that normally
wouldn't have those colors so we

96
00:06:28,680 --> 00:06:31,440
can complete the design
properly.

97
00:06:31,720 --> 00:06:35,920
We just have to meet the meet
minimums, which most people

98
00:06:35,920 --> 00:06:37,960
wouldn't do.
Yeah.

99
00:06:38,680 --> 00:06:41,480
By like 10 million of a certain
piece or whatever the order.

100
00:06:42,160 --> 00:06:46,840
I want to say it was a little
over the 1 1/2 year mark of the

101
00:06:46,840 --> 00:06:50,160
show.
We had a special guest, we had

102
00:06:50,160 --> 00:06:52,920
our #1 fan on.
She's actually in the chat right

103
00:06:52,920 --> 00:06:54,720
now.
Kenzar, she's under the K Turz

104
00:06:54,720 --> 00:06:57,280
tag.
She's from Canada.

105
00:06:57,280 --> 00:06:59,880
She was actually she became a Co
host for a little while.

106
00:07:00,560 --> 00:07:02,200
She's just blowing it up right
now.

107
00:07:02,200 --> 00:07:04,200
She goes that Mothman is bad
ass.

108
00:07:04,200 --> 00:07:07,320
I want a Mothman, OK, I want one
of those two.

109
00:07:07,360 --> 00:07:10,040
The Wendigo is so cool.
That thing is so cool.

110
00:07:10,040 --> 00:07:11,800
She's just she's just going ha
ha ha.

111
00:07:12,960 --> 00:07:15,640
So we did A2 parter.
I asked her what she wanted to

112
00:07:15,640 --> 00:07:19,280
cover because at the time she
was, she was our biggest fan.

113
00:07:20,040 --> 00:07:23,640
And she said she wanted to cover
a Cryptid from Canada.

114
00:07:23,640 --> 00:07:26,000
And I gave her a list of
cryptids and what she planned it

115
00:07:26,000 --> 00:07:31,040
on was the the, the Wendy go.
And so I said, yeah, absolutely.

116
00:07:31,040 --> 00:07:33,800
Let me just do the research.
Then the book that I grabbed was

117
00:07:33,800 --> 00:07:38,560
Chad Lewis's Wendy Galore.
So yeah, isn't that cool?

118
00:07:39,800 --> 00:07:41,040
Look, he's going to go grab it.
We're going to.

119
00:07:41,040 --> 00:07:41,760
We're going to touch.
Books.

120
00:07:41,760 --> 00:07:42,440
There we go.
Hey, look.

121
00:07:42,720 --> 00:07:45,240
At that look.
Chad Lewis.

122
00:07:49,520 --> 00:07:52,520
It's a, it's, it's kind of
embarrassing how how many Chad

123
00:07:52,520 --> 00:07:55,360
Lewis books I have back here.
It's a, it's a lot.

124
00:07:56,160 --> 00:07:59,360
It's a lot.
Chad Lewis actually went to

125
00:07:59,360 --> 00:08:01,120
school right here at Stout in
Menominee.

126
00:08:01,560 --> 00:08:06,200
And there's a little bookstore
right down the road, Dragon

127
00:08:06,200 --> 00:08:11,840
Tales Books, that has a bunch of
books that are signed by him

128
00:08:11,960 --> 00:08:15,480
there.
My wife went and when we first

129
00:08:15,480 --> 00:08:18,560
moved here, it was about two
years ago, went and grabbed me a

130
00:08:18,560 --> 00:08:22,840
book on Pepe, the Monster Lake
Pepin.

131
00:08:23,720 --> 00:08:27,160
And I opened it up and it's got
a, it's got a signature from

132
00:08:27,360 --> 00:08:30,560
from Chad Lewis on it here.
Let me see if I can find it real

133
00:08:30,560 --> 00:08:31,920
quick.
Right there.

134
00:08:36,640 --> 00:08:41,159
There we go.
So right there, Chad Lewis and

135
00:08:41,240 --> 00:08:47,400
Noah Voss, and then I've.
There you go.

136
00:08:50,320 --> 00:08:52,200
Yeah, pretty cool.
Yeah, there it is.

137
00:08:54,400 --> 00:08:59,480
But yeah, I've, I've, I, I
emailed him before trying to get

138
00:08:59,480 --> 00:09:00,760
him on the show.
Never.

139
00:09:00,760 --> 00:09:04,400
I haven't heard back from him,
but I love to pick his brain,

140
00:09:04,400 --> 00:09:06,040
man.
I love Chad Lewis.

141
00:09:06,040 --> 00:09:08,640
That guy's, that guy's awesome.
I love everything that he puts

142
00:09:08,640 --> 00:09:10,880
out.
Guy Guy's phenomenal.

143
00:09:11,920 --> 00:09:14,400
Yeah, if you ever get a chance
to see him speak at one of the

144
00:09:14,400 --> 00:09:17,480
local libraries or little venues
around.

145
00:09:17,680 --> 00:09:22,320
He's a very good storyteller.
Well, I'm I'm in charge of

146
00:09:22,560 --> 00:09:25,280
putting together the speakers at
the UFO Days in Elmwood this

147
00:09:25,280 --> 00:09:29,280
year, so I will definitely be
trying to reach out for him for

148
00:09:29,280 --> 00:09:34,280
that this year.
So yeah, but let's get back to

149
00:09:34,280 --> 00:09:37,880
you.
Well, actually I got a funny

150
00:09:37,880 --> 00:09:39,360
story.
I'm, I'm, I'm trying to make

151
00:09:39,360 --> 00:09:42,000
this nice display back here for
you today, right?

152
00:09:42,000 --> 00:09:44,280
And trying, trying to make it
all nice and neat because this

153
00:09:44,280 --> 00:09:48,920
isn't normally my setup, right?
And I dropped my sign.

154
00:09:48,920 --> 00:09:51,080
I used to have my infinite
rabbit hole sign up here and I

155
00:09:51,080 --> 00:09:54,120
drop it down over here and my
Mothman tumbles off of my

156
00:09:54,120 --> 00:09:57,920
bookshelf and shatters and I'm
like, are you kidding me?

157
00:09:58,160 --> 00:10:01,080
This is like 5 minutes before
I'm supposed to send you your

158
00:10:01,080 --> 00:10:05,680
link and I'm like, so I don't
even know if he's technically

159
00:10:05,680 --> 00:10:09,040
put together right?
But he's a, he's standing.

160
00:10:09,560 --> 00:10:13,000
He's standing just fine.
But what got you into this man?

161
00:10:13,240 --> 00:10:17,160
Let's talk about that.
Well it started a couple years

162
00:10:17,160 --> 00:10:21,320
ago.
We we were going up to Fargo, ND

163
00:10:21,320 --> 00:10:25,840
to visit some family.
My wife's father wasn't doing

164
00:10:25,840 --> 00:10:31,400
well and we we were buying a lot
of Lego sets, letting my son

165
00:10:32,200 --> 00:10:36,640
play with the Legos and letting
his grandpa watch him play.

166
00:10:38,120 --> 00:10:42,160
He had passed away and we had
racked up a little bit of debt

167
00:10:42,160 --> 00:10:47,320
from going up there so much.
And we thought, you know, hey,

168
00:10:47,760 --> 00:10:49,120
we got to get out of this
somehow.

169
00:10:49,120 --> 00:10:52,720
And, you know, I was tired of
doing manual labor and figure

170
00:10:52,720 --> 00:10:55,640
and I can go build a retaining
wall, but I didn't want to do

171
00:10:55,640 --> 00:10:57,920
that anymore.
So I'll use my brain.

172
00:10:58,480 --> 00:11:00,480
I said, you know what?
There's, there's not a Hodag

173
00:11:00,480 --> 00:11:02,960
Lego out there.
We could figure that out.

174
00:11:02,960 --> 00:11:08,080
We could do it and, and we did.
So we did the, the Hodag, the

175
00:11:08,080 --> 00:11:09,840
big Hodag that you've got behind
you there.

176
00:11:10,360 --> 00:11:14,440
And we sold it at the Hodag
store up in Rhinelander.

177
00:11:14,880 --> 00:11:19,360
And Ben, the owner of the Hodag
store said, hey, Alex, how fast

178
00:11:19,360 --> 00:11:21,960
can you get a Mothman done?
Because people will love it.

179
00:11:22,600 --> 00:11:27,200
And that was May of two years
ago.

180
00:11:27,200 --> 00:11:36,640
So we 2023 and we got it done
and it was four days before the

181
00:11:36,640 --> 00:11:40,120
Mothman Festival started.
We ended up driving down to

182
00:11:40,120 --> 00:11:45,000
Wausau and picking up all of the
sets at a hub and brought them

183
00:11:45,000 --> 00:11:50,120
down to Point Pleasant and next
thing you know they were selling

184
00:11:50,120 --> 00:11:52,120
fantastic and.
I'm sure.

185
00:11:52,280 --> 00:11:54,000
We just just kept going from
there, yeah.

186
00:11:54,840 --> 00:12:00,760
I'll tell you, I've probably
handed out your link at least 30

187
00:12:00,760 --> 00:12:03,360
times.
I appreciate that.

188
00:12:03,440 --> 00:12:06,360
That's just off the Mothman and,
and the Hodag Man.

189
00:12:06,840 --> 00:12:10,840
And you know, I've the Mothman
sat behind me a few times for

190
00:12:10,840 --> 00:12:13,920
recordings eventually.
I mean, I've got so many things

191
00:12:13,920 --> 00:12:16,200
in this in the studio.
It's, it's obnoxious.

192
00:12:17,040 --> 00:12:21,360
So I, I kind of rotate them a
little bit, but the Mothman,

193
00:12:21,960 --> 00:12:25,640
I've had AI have had a couple
people come down and, you know,

194
00:12:25,760 --> 00:12:28,760
toward the studio and I have
pictures of it in my, in my

195
00:12:28,760 --> 00:12:30,560
phone.
So whenever I, you know, talk to

196
00:12:30,640 --> 00:12:33,800
somebody outside or whatever, I,
you know, show them all the, all

197
00:12:33,800 --> 00:12:37,440
the cool stuff I have in my
studio and that the Mothman is,

198
00:12:37,440 --> 00:12:39,320
is such an eye catcher to
people, man, they're.

199
00:12:39,320 --> 00:12:42,040
Just like, talk to somebody
outside.

200
00:12:43,080 --> 00:12:48,680
Touch some fucking grass, dude.
Jeez.

201
00:12:49,000 --> 00:12:50,400
Thanks, Jeff.
Appreciate you.

202
00:12:50,720 --> 00:12:57,440
You're such a great.
When I speak, when I go speak to

203
00:12:57,440 --> 00:12:58,720
humans, you know, other people
see the.

204
00:12:59,080 --> 00:13:04,080
Sun.
Hey, you're talking about how it

205
00:13:04,120 --> 00:13:07,360
it fell and, and it may not even
be put together correctly.

206
00:13:08,080 --> 00:13:12,480
We actually brought the
prototype down to Point Pleasant

207
00:13:12,640 --> 00:13:17,960
and showed Jeff, the owner of
the museum and took pictures

208
00:13:17,960 --> 00:13:20,920
with the Mothman touching the
shiny hiney of the statue.

209
00:13:21,480 --> 00:13:27,320
And shortly before we presented
it to him, we have dropped it

210
00:13:27,320 --> 00:13:30,800
and broke it and had to quickly
throw it together.

211
00:13:30,800 --> 00:13:35,320
So our original pictures with
the statue and at the museum,

212
00:13:36,040 --> 00:13:39,520
it's not assembled correctly.
No, really, it's it's quickly

213
00:13:39,520 --> 00:13:42,000
thrown together too.
Yep, that's awesome.

214
00:13:42,440 --> 00:13:44,400
Nobody, nobody know.
That's a part of the beauty

215
00:13:44,400 --> 00:13:49,680
about brick sets or Legos is you
know, you can put it back

216
00:13:49,680 --> 00:13:54,320
together and how it may not be
perfect, but nobody would ever

217
00:13:54,320 --> 00:13:56,280
know.
I've got a couple pieces in here

218
00:13:56,280 --> 00:13:59,240
from Jeff Wambley.
Actually, I've got over there.

219
00:13:59,240 --> 00:14:02,840
I've got a flyer from the
Mothman Museum down here.

220
00:14:02,840 --> 00:14:10,360
I've got a few books behind the
Red Eyes and Mothman, The Facts

221
00:14:10,360 --> 00:14:13,240
behind the legend.
Those were those were both sent

222
00:14:13,240 --> 00:14:16,880
to me by Wembley.
I reached out to him because I

223
00:14:16,880 --> 00:14:25,600
was doing, I was going to do a,
a a big Mothman feature at one

224
00:14:25,600 --> 00:14:30,560
point that I never ended up
doing because I did AI did an

225
00:14:30,560 --> 00:14:34,200
injured cold one, a four part
injured cold one with Asher's

226
00:14:34,200 --> 00:14:39,440
from the on Wednesdays we talk
Weird podcast and the injured

227
00:14:39,440 --> 00:14:43,640
cold story comes from the same
area, the point Pleasant,

228
00:14:43,640 --> 00:14:50,360
Galapagos, Ohio area.
And he had heard it and he he

229
00:14:50,360 --> 00:14:52,320
was like, man, you know, you did
such a great job.

230
00:14:52,720 --> 00:14:55,280
You know, if you ever want to do
a Mothman one, just let me know.

231
00:14:55,280 --> 00:14:57,640
I've got material that I think
would would really help you.

232
00:14:58,080 --> 00:15:01,560
And those books actually are
just, you know, they're

233
00:15:01,560 --> 00:15:06,120
basically just photocopies of
like newspaper clippings and

234
00:15:06,120 --> 00:15:08,120
stuff like that, which is really
cool.

235
00:15:08,360 --> 00:15:11,360
And he just sent it to me.
So that was really neat.

236
00:15:12,680 --> 00:15:17,160
And I could, I'm not going to go
around just name everything, but

237
00:15:18,440 --> 00:15:23,400
but yeah, man, the, the interest
in the cryptids.

238
00:15:24,400 --> 00:15:25,920
Did that start with the Hodag
for you?

239
00:15:27,760 --> 00:15:31,960
Yeah, so the Hodag.
That's our hometown Cryptid, you

240
00:15:31,960 --> 00:15:35,720
know, it's everybody up here.
Eat, breathes and sleeps the

241
00:15:35,720 --> 00:15:40,400
Hodag it's on the police cars.
It's the mask out of the school.

242
00:15:40,400 --> 00:15:46,240
It's it's life.
And you know from there it's

243
00:15:46,280 --> 00:15:49,240
either you learn about other
ones that the beast of Bray Rd.

244
00:15:50,320 --> 00:15:53,960
similar to the Michigan dog man,
which is a set that we did that

245
00:15:53,960 --> 00:15:57,640
was, you know, tough trying to
you go dog man.

246
00:15:57,640 --> 00:16:02,040
Do you go beast of Bray Rd.?
Kind of keep it Wisconsin but

247
00:16:02,520 --> 00:16:04,600
decided to give Michigan a
little bit of love with that

248
00:16:04,600 --> 00:16:06,880
one.
I think it's a good choice.

249
00:16:07,680 --> 00:16:11,720
Yeah, yeah.
And then it's just, you know,

250
00:16:11,880 --> 00:16:15,640
ever since we've we've been
successful with the Mothman and

251
00:16:16,160 --> 00:16:19,040
branched out to Flatwoods
Monster, which is another

252
00:16:19,040 --> 00:16:24,040
popular West Virginia one and
slow slowly just learning more

253
00:16:24,040 --> 00:16:27,960
and more about different
cryptids and, you know, build

254
00:16:27,960 --> 00:16:30,360
building the cool ones.
Heck yeah, man.

255
00:16:30,480 --> 00:16:31,560
No.
You've got to get a good

256
00:16:31,560 --> 00:16:33,680
collection going.
I like how you're how you're

257
00:16:33,680 --> 00:16:38,000
kind of spreading out from here
in in in Wisconsin and kind of

258
00:16:38,000 --> 00:16:40,000
branched out.
Then you just kind of have that

259
00:16:40,000 --> 00:16:42,880
island of West Virginia out
there in the middle of nowhere.

260
00:16:42,880 --> 00:16:47,280
It's pretty cool.
So do you know do you know much

261
00:16:47,280 --> 00:16:52,480
about Hodag lore?
You know, I, I, I know it, I'm

262
00:16:52,480 --> 00:16:54,960
familiar with it, not real good
at reciting it.

263
00:16:56,320 --> 00:17:00,360
You know, got a couple friends
that are real good at that part.

264
00:17:00,360 --> 00:17:04,680
And they're kind of, they're
kind of the the voice and

265
00:17:04,680 --> 00:17:11,240
Speaking of, of the Hodag.
There was I want to say I, I

266
00:17:11,480 --> 00:17:13,119
'cause I'm not, I'm not from
here, right?

267
00:17:13,119 --> 00:17:15,920
So I moved here about 3 years
ago.

268
00:17:15,920 --> 00:17:20,119
My, my buddy and Co host, Jake,
who, who isn't with us today.

269
00:17:20,119 --> 00:17:22,800
He's he's he's all tuckered out.
He's really tired.

270
00:17:24,560 --> 00:17:31,240
He he, him and I met in the Navy
and I end up getting a job here

271
00:17:31,240 --> 00:17:35,400
and he followed me here.
So I, I grabbed a ton of books

272
00:17:35,400 --> 00:17:37,920
on like the local lore and
everything and it wasn't this

273
00:17:37,920 --> 00:17:39,200
one.
I thought it was that book, but

274
00:17:39,200 --> 00:17:43,120
it's not.
I was I, I've, I've known about

275
00:17:43,120 --> 00:17:46,080
the Hodag.
You know, that's, that's one of

276
00:17:46,080 --> 00:17:51,360
the the crypt is that, you know,
if you're into the topic of

277
00:17:51,360 --> 00:17:55,600
cryptids or cryptozoology or
urban legends in general, you're

278
00:17:55,600 --> 00:17:59,960
going to know the Hodag.
But what I didn't know was that

279
00:17:59,960 --> 00:18:04,600
the Hodag apparently is like a
one of a group of Hodag like

280
00:18:04,600 --> 00:18:08,000
creatures.
Have you heard about that?

281
00:18:10,080 --> 00:18:13,880
That you're referring to like
the Fearsome Creatures group or.

282
00:18:14,280 --> 00:18:16,080
OK, Yeah.
That's pretty.

283
00:18:16,080 --> 00:18:20,520
Cool, we've got one of our sets
is a snow waset which is part of

284
00:18:20,520 --> 00:18:28,760
the fearsome creature.
So Speaking of, it's not very

285
00:18:28,760 --> 00:18:33,240
often that I, I get stumped on,
on what something is.

286
00:18:33,240 --> 00:18:39,000
But when you, when you sent the,
the, the boxes of, of the, the

287
00:18:39,000 --> 00:18:41,400
moth ban and a hodag, you sent
stickers too.

288
00:18:41,920 --> 00:18:45,640
And we, you know, I got all your
stickers hanging up on my, my

289
00:18:45,640 --> 00:18:47,240
wall over there.
I got a whole wall full of

290
00:18:47,240 --> 00:18:50,800
stickers And I'm like, I don't
know what this is.

291
00:18:51,400 --> 00:18:53,760
So I challenged my son.
I was like, all right, buddy,

292
00:18:53,920 --> 00:18:55,440
there you go.
Go figure it out.

293
00:18:55,960 --> 00:18:59,880
And it took him about 3 days to
figure it out, but he, he did

294
00:18:59,880 --> 00:19:00,560
it.
He did it.

295
00:19:00,920 --> 00:19:04,320
So, but what, what do you know
about that guy?

296
00:19:04,800 --> 00:19:07,760
I don't know much about it.
So the snow Wasp that we

297
00:19:07,760 --> 00:19:11,960
actually did that one for
Cryptidcrate, junior

298
00:19:12,680 --> 00:19:16,320
Cryptidcrate, it's a
subscription Cryptid company

299
00:19:16,320 --> 00:19:20,560
that will understand you have
mystery items of a, a certain

300
00:19:20,560 --> 00:19:27,200
Cryptid each month.
And Lisa, who works with the

301
00:19:27,320 --> 00:19:31,200
junior part of it, had asked us
if we'd be interested in and

302
00:19:31,200 --> 00:19:34,800
doing a set.
So we just randomly chose the

303
00:19:34,800 --> 00:19:37,720
snow waset because that was one
that they kind of had lined up

304
00:19:37,720 --> 00:19:42,080
and it's it really lines up well
with us being up in the

305
00:19:42,080 --> 00:19:45,440
Northwoods and the whole dag
and, you know, just kind of Paul

306
00:19:45,440 --> 00:19:50,880
Bunyan type logger lore.
But the Snow boss said it's like

307
00:19:51,000 --> 00:19:56,800
a a white weasel kind of snake,
furry, doesn't have legs and it

308
00:19:56,800 --> 00:20:00,880
will slow through the snow and
jump up and eat rabbits and and

309
00:20:00,880 --> 00:20:03,800
other small mammals.
Nice.

310
00:20:03,800 --> 00:20:05,480
Let's see.
Doesn't doesn't are humans

311
00:20:05,480 --> 00:20:07,000
though.
But yeah, the, the wonderful

312
00:20:07,000 --> 00:20:12,040
thing about our sets is, is we
tell the story of each Cryptid

313
00:20:12,040 --> 00:20:16,240
on the back of the package.
So if you're, you know, wanting

314
00:20:16,240 --> 00:20:19,640
to learn about different
cryptids or you think it might

315
00:20:19,640 --> 00:20:23,440
be a cool set but you just don't
know about it, it's tells you

316
00:20:23,440 --> 00:20:26,920
all about it on the back so you
can learn as you build.

317
00:20:28,280 --> 00:20:32,400
I've went ahead and brought up
pictures of the snow.

318
00:20:33,000 --> 00:20:38,160
Wasit or wasit for the the
listeners right now so they can

319
00:20:38,160 --> 00:20:39,560
kind of see what I'm talking
about.

320
00:20:42,160 --> 00:20:44,800
One of my daughter's saw it too.
And she's like, well, that's

321
00:20:44,800 --> 00:20:48,120
freaking cute.
Oh, check it out.

322
00:20:48,120 --> 00:20:49,160
Yeah.
Oh, hold on.

323
00:20:49,160 --> 00:20:53,320
Let me, let me, let me stop this
share real quick so we can see

324
00:20:53,320 --> 00:20:56,480
that guy.
I had seen pictures of this and

325
00:20:56,480 --> 00:20:59,280
I was going to ask you where
where it was, but the

326
00:20:59,280 --> 00:21:01,160
Kryptocrate Junior, that's where
it came from.

327
00:21:01,160 --> 00:21:02,680
Huh.
That's cool.

328
00:21:03,760 --> 00:21:06,640
Yep, they they helped us with
the idea of it and it was

329
00:21:06,640 --> 00:21:11,880
featured in their snow waset
pack and now we we just sell

330
00:21:11,880 --> 00:21:15,520
them on our website and it's
it's completely posable.

331
00:21:16,440 --> 00:21:18,880
Move it whichever 1 you want.
You make it into a bracelet.

332
00:21:18,880 --> 00:21:20,920
It's like a little puppy
bracelet.

333
00:21:20,920 --> 00:21:23,600
When my sister's friend's
daughter says.

334
00:21:24,000 --> 00:21:25,360
That's awesome, but.
Yeah.

335
00:21:27,280 --> 00:21:29,040
That's awesome.
So we've got right now 5.

336
00:21:31,880 --> 00:21:32,840
Oh, go ahead.
No, go ahead.

337
00:21:33,520 --> 00:21:35,080
I was going to say we've got 5
little sets.

338
00:21:35,080 --> 00:21:41,320
We've got the snow waspit, we've
got our mini Mothman and then

339
00:21:41,320 --> 00:21:46,480
we've got a little tiny hod egg.
Yeah, and.

340
00:21:47,120 --> 00:21:49,840
Then we've got a Bigfoot and a
flatwoods monster as well.

341
00:21:51,000 --> 00:21:55,920
Yeah, you do, Kenzar says.
It reminds me of of Falcor from

342
00:21:55,920 --> 00:21:58,440
The Never Ending Story.
Does it?

343
00:21:58,440 --> 00:22:02,200
Is It does give you some
reminiscence of that?

344
00:22:02,840 --> 00:22:05,320
Crystal wants the the pillow,
the dog.

345
00:22:05,440 --> 00:22:06,600
What is it?
The Dag Mellow.

346
00:22:07,240 --> 00:22:09,640
The Dag Mellow.
Yeah, she wants some.

347
00:22:13,120 --> 00:22:14,160
That's the cutest thing I've
ever seen.

348
00:22:14,160 --> 00:22:18,320
So we did some stuffed animals
for the whole day store and some

349
00:22:18,320 --> 00:22:22,240
of the stores up here helped
design them and it was time to

350
00:22:22,240 --> 00:22:24,880
reorder them and wasn't a big
fan.

351
00:22:24,880 --> 00:22:26,440
They weren't soft, they weren't
cuddly.

352
00:22:26,960 --> 00:22:32,200
So we put my 6 year old Nolan in
charge of designing the next

353
00:22:33,240 --> 00:22:37,800
plushy and he decided to do a
Hodag Squish Mellow.

354
00:22:38,280 --> 00:22:42,080
Well, Squish Mellow's a brand
and we can't, you know, do that.

355
00:22:42,080 --> 00:22:45,720
So we created our own which is
the Dag Mellow.

356
00:22:46,320 --> 00:22:47,920
That's cool.
That's freaking.

357
00:22:49,360 --> 00:22:51,720
Awesome squish, mellow inspired
Hodag that.

358
00:22:52,920 --> 00:22:55,920
Is awesome my.
Show the back of it again.

359
00:22:57,160 --> 00:23:00,040
Yeah.
Oh yeah.

360
00:23:00,840 --> 00:23:05,680
Yeah, we got spikes going down
the back seven of them.

361
00:23:08,200 --> 00:23:13,000
So we're on the website I'm I'm,
I'm sharing the website too, so

362
00:23:13,000 --> 00:23:19,000
that people can see it as well.
The website if anybody is

363
00:23:19,000 --> 00:23:23,640
interested, is.
Just northwoodsbricks.com.

364
00:23:23,800 --> 00:23:28,240
There you go,
northwoodsbricks.com and I am on

365
00:23:28,240 --> 00:23:33,440
their shop page where it just
has the list of everything that

366
00:23:33,440 --> 00:23:36,320
they have available right now.
That Krampus is cool too.

367
00:23:36,600 --> 00:23:38,920
That comes with one of the mini
Hod eggs.

368
00:23:39,560 --> 00:23:42,000
It does with the hod egg.
It fits in his little satchel in

369
00:23:42,000 --> 00:23:43,480
the back.
That's awesome.

370
00:23:45,720 --> 00:23:48,560
That is too cool.
Did you ever do a full size

371
00:23:48,560 --> 00:23:52,200
Bigfoot?
We were working on one.

372
00:23:52,200 --> 00:23:58,720
We ran into some difficulties.
It's one that we've considered,

373
00:23:59,320 --> 00:24:02,760
but there's there's so many good
cryptids out there and so many

374
00:24:02,760 --> 00:24:08,640
good sets that we're just kind
of waiting for sales to pick up

375
00:24:08,640 --> 00:24:12,920
on the little Bigfoot to help
fund a big Bigfoot.

376
00:24:13,160 --> 00:24:17,000
Gotcha.
So still, still working a full

377
00:24:17,000 --> 00:24:21,160
time job, swing shift at a
factory, you know, this is, this

378
00:24:21,160 --> 00:24:23,960
is a dream that we're able to do
this.

379
00:24:23,960 --> 00:24:28,480
And you know, everything we've
got goes right back into

380
00:24:29,360 --> 00:24:33,600
developing more sets and, and
getting more sets made for

381
00:24:33,600 --> 00:24:35,000
people.
Heck yeah, man.

382
00:24:37,280 --> 00:24:40,160
Cool.
Well, I know Skeeter is going to

383
00:24:40,160 --> 00:24:41,400
be upset that he missed this
one.

384
00:24:41,760 --> 00:24:43,920
Skeeter is one of our our big
fans.

385
00:24:43,920 --> 00:24:48,800
He's also our tech guy.
He's, I can't remember where

386
00:24:48,800 --> 00:24:50,960
he's from, but he's, he's from
around the area too.

387
00:24:52,080 --> 00:24:56,240
We met him for the first time in
person that UFO days last year.

388
00:24:56,520 --> 00:25:00,600
And he, I know he was looking
forward to this chat.

389
00:25:01,080 --> 00:25:03,680
He was, he was looking forward
to it last night because we, we

390
00:25:03,680 --> 00:25:07,680
had you scheduled once before.
For those that are listening,

391
00:25:07,680 --> 00:25:10,520
That's why you know, this, this
was kind of a, a last minute

392
00:25:10,520 --> 00:25:17,280
thing, but it is what it is.
So can you, can you give us a, a

393
00:25:17,280 --> 00:25:19,760
peek under the covers of, of
what else you got coming up?

394
00:25:20,120 --> 00:25:26,720
Anything else?
Well, we've got our Mongolian

395
00:25:26,720 --> 00:25:28,600
death worm.
Yeah, part of it.

396
00:25:28,720 --> 00:25:32,480
Part of it fell off just before
I came on camera too, so look at

397
00:25:32,480 --> 00:25:35,360
that thing.
Oh yeah, this one.

398
00:25:35,360 --> 00:25:39,600
It's fully posable like the snow
waset but but bigger and than

399
00:25:39,600 --> 00:25:44,000
the teeth go in and out.
Jeez.

400
00:25:45,680 --> 00:25:48,320
So definitely evil is.
That one called.

401
00:25:48,760 --> 00:25:50,720
The Mongolian death.
Mongolian death worm.

402
00:25:52,760 --> 00:25:56,480
Brutal.
You should hear the lore behind

403
00:25:56,480 --> 00:25:59,560
that one, it's great.
Why haven't we done an episode

404
00:25:59,560 --> 00:26:01,160
on that?
That sounds brutal dude.

405
00:26:01,800 --> 00:26:06,680
We, we could, we could Here I'll
I'll bring up some pictures of

406
00:26:06,680 --> 00:26:08,800
that for.
Mongolian death worm.

407
00:26:08,800 --> 00:26:10,680
You guys remember that movie
Tremors dude?

408
00:26:11,000 --> 00:26:12,760
That's that's what it Tremors
is.

409
00:26:12,760 --> 00:26:16,080
Based on just like that, yeah.
What was the?

410
00:26:16,280 --> 00:26:19,280
Guy's name with the bunker?
What was his fucking name?

411
00:26:20,360 --> 00:26:21,880
I don't know, man.
I don't watch movies.

412
00:26:22,040 --> 00:26:23,720
You know this.
Frank or something, I don't

413
00:26:24,760 --> 00:26:26,000
know.
That was my hero when I was

414
00:26:26,000 --> 00:26:28,080
like, I was like, I want to be
like that dude with the bunker

415
00:26:28,080 --> 00:26:33,640
and the sandbags anyways.
Where it came from, those creepy

416
00:26:33,640 --> 00:26:34,720
things.
Look at them.

417
00:26:34,960 --> 00:26:36,920
How creepy they are.
Hell, look at this.

418
00:26:36,960 --> 00:26:41,760
Look at this one.
Look at this one Alex did.

419
00:26:41,760 --> 00:26:44,040
You see that?
Which one?

420
00:26:44,320 --> 00:26:46,480
Could you see the the screen
share that I'm doing right now?

421
00:26:46,480 --> 00:26:48,040
Oh.
Yeah, I can.

422
00:26:48,120 --> 00:26:52,160
Oh man.
Oh, that's this like 1/2 person

423
00:26:52,160 --> 00:26:54,440
half Mongolian death firm.
It's really weird.

424
00:26:55,560 --> 00:26:57,680
That's odd.
Are they supposed?

425
00:26:57,680 --> 00:27:00,520
Are they small?
No, these things are big, man.

426
00:27:01,320 --> 00:27:02,640
Big creatures.
Yeah.

427
00:27:03,840 --> 00:27:08,360
Dude I want that see this OK and
they live in the desert engine.

428
00:27:08,600 --> 00:27:12,920
Yeah, well, Yep, Mongolia, but.
Bro OK, this might want.

429
00:27:12,920 --> 00:27:16,160
This might be real.
This one might be real.

430
00:27:19,320 --> 00:27:27,800
Dude that's that's super cool.
Demi Gorgon Leech, that's like

431
00:27:27,840 --> 00:27:32,600
kid said.
We're not a, is there?

432
00:27:33,320 --> 00:27:34,880
Any other secrets that we can
know about?

433
00:27:35,520 --> 00:27:38,680
What is this?
This is this is a Grafton

434
00:27:38,680 --> 00:27:41,120
monster.
It's a little hard to to make it

435
00:27:41,120 --> 00:27:44,080
out with the random.
It's not white.

436
00:27:44,200 --> 00:27:49,440
No, this is this is a prototype.
So like I said, not yeah, not

437
00:27:49,440 --> 00:27:51,400
all of the pieces are available
in that color.

438
00:27:51,400 --> 00:27:55,920
So sometimes we we just have to
build it with, with what's

439
00:27:55,920 --> 00:27:58,480
available and change the colors
after.

440
00:27:58,920 --> 00:28:04,120
But we we designed all of them
on stud IO, which is a online

441
00:28:04,120 --> 00:28:08,240
CAD system.
So we can build it digitally and

442
00:28:08,240 --> 00:28:12,720
then from there make the
instructions and and do every

443
00:28:12,720 --> 00:28:15,880
part of it.
But then it's important that we

444
00:28:16,320 --> 00:28:20,840
build it in person to make sure,
and it's actually structurally

445
00:28:20,840 --> 00:28:23,920
sound.
Sometimes you know what it says

446
00:28:23,920 --> 00:28:27,200
you can do on the computer
versus what realistically you

447
00:28:27,200 --> 00:28:29,920
can do with gravity.
It's completely different.

448
00:28:30,120 --> 00:28:32,920
Oh yeah, Grafton monster.
That's another West Virginia

449
00:28:32,920 --> 00:28:36,080
one, is it?
That is Grafton, WV I'll.

450
00:28:36,880 --> 00:28:40,880
Have to.
Lot of lot of the cryptids are

451
00:28:40,880 --> 00:28:45,320
in the West Virginia Appalachian
Mountain area, originate from

452
00:28:45,320 --> 00:28:49,840
over in that area.
And then you know, kind of up

453
00:28:49,840 --> 00:28:54,560
towards Ohio, Wisconsin,
Michigan, lot of Cryptid lore,

454
00:28:55,800 --> 00:28:58,920
you know, going going out West,
there's there's not nearly as

455
00:28:58,920 --> 00:29:04,480
many as is in the mountains.
They've got Chupacabra and a few

456
00:29:04,480 --> 00:29:06,040
others, but.
Oh yeah.

457
00:29:06,440 --> 00:29:09,360
Kind of kind of spread out
through all the states, not not

458
00:29:09,360 --> 00:29:14,720
so specific to a smaller region.
Yeah, there's a ton of them.

459
00:29:14,800 --> 00:29:21,680
There's a it's, it's like a
condensed population of them in,

460
00:29:22,720 --> 00:29:27,280
in, in West Virginia especially,
but in the Appalachians period.

461
00:29:27,280 --> 00:29:34,760
I mean, you have the, the, the
moon eyed people, you have God.

462
00:29:34,760 --> 00:29:37,360
What is it?
Was that the Wampus Cat down in

463
00:29:37,520 --> 00:29:40,720
the Carolinas, in Tennessee.
I mean, there's, there's a

464
00:29:40,840 --> 00:29:42,480
there's a ton of them there.
It's.

465
00:29:43,120 --> 00:29:47,160
The Fresno Nightcrawler Veggie
Man.

466
00:29:47,160 --> 00:29:51,920
Oh yeah, the squonk is becoming
more and more popular.

467
00:29:51,920 --> 00:29:53,080
That's it.
Pennsylvania.

468
00:29:53,560 --> 00:29:54,640
Pennsylvania.
Yep.

469
00:29:55,320 --> 00:29:58,720
Yep.
Oh, man, so cool.

470
00:29:59,040 --> 00:30:02,040
You do some cool stuff, man.
You're going to I'm, I'm going

471
00:30:02,040 --> 00:30:04,040
to have all of them here.
All of them.

472
00:30:04,040 --> 00:30:06,480
I got to make a section in here
for them just for those.

473
00:30:08,920 --> 00:30:11,280
I'll figure it out.
Yeah, that is pretty sick Legos

474
00:30:11,320 --> 00:30:14,960
and and like, what do you, what
is the other term that you use

475
00:30:14,960 --> 00:30:17,880
that's not Legos because these
aren't Legos, just like a brick

476
00:30:17,880 --> 00:30:19,080
set.
Brick set.

477
00:30:19,080 --> 00:30:20,760
Yeah, they're just bricks that.
Yep.

478
00:30:21,320 --> 00:30:23,400
I'll remember that.
Yeah.

479
00:30:23,440 --> 00:30:26,640
Man, I need, you know, I always
see these and I'm like, I want

480
00:30:26,640 --> 00:30:29,840
these, but I never do.
I might actually get some of

481
00:30:29,840 --> 00:30:31,880
these, though, because these are
cool, right?

482
00:30:32,960 --> 00:30:36,360
These are cool, yeah.
And, and there's, there's been

483
00:30:36,360 --> 00:30:39,240
a, a bad name for all brick
brands out there.

484
00:30:40,000 --> 00:30:44,960
China's done numbers on having
these crap dollar store little

485
00:30:44,960 --> 00:30:48,280
bricks that just don't put
together and they fall apart.

486
00:30:48,280 --> 00:30:51,480
And you know, LEGO's got a
certain feel to it.

487
00:30:51,560 --> 00:30:55,880
And unfortunately they won't
make sense for other people.

488
00:30:55,880 --> 00:30:59,880
They just do their own.
So we had to, you know, source

489
00:31:00,040 --> 00:31:02,960
the next best factory that we
can and make sure we focused on

490
00:31:02,960 --> 00:31:06,360
quality because, you know, being
a fan of Lego and being a fan of

491
00:31:06,360 --> 00:31:09,280
cryptids.
If, if I bought a set and put it

492
00:31:09,280 --> 00:31:12,920
together and it was junk bricks,
I mean, I'd be a heartbroken.

493
00:31:12,920 --> 00:31:14,360
I, I, you know, I want all of
them.

494
00:31:14,360 --> 00:31:18,000
I just don't want the one.
So we really made sure we went

495
00:31:18,000 --> 00:31:22,880
with a a good quality brand
factory to to produce our bricks

496
00:31:22,880 --> 00:31:27,480
for us.
Well, I know I hope that someday

497
00:31:27,480 --> 00:31:30,360
the jackalope's on the list.
Man, that'd be so sick.

498
00:31:31,520 --> 00:31:33,240
But we're working on one.
Are you?

499
00:31:34,720 --> 00:31:38,400
I've got I've got a digital one
done, just not not in person

500
00:31:38,400 --> 00:31:41,600
yet.
I, I, I've got a thing for him,

501
00:31:41,600 --> 00:31:42,240
man.
I love him.

502
00:31:43,280 --> 00:31:44,920
Love him.
I'll have to send you a picture

503
00:31:44,920 --> 00:31:48,480
after this.
Yeah, absolutely, Kenzar said.

504
00:31:48,680 --> 00:31:50,080
Oh, a jackalope would be
amazing.

505
00:31:50,280 --> 00:31:53,280
I just got AI just got a
jackalope tattoo the other day.

506
00:31:54,160 --> 00:31:56,200
Nice.
Yeah, that's the 4th time, Jeff.

507
00:31:56,440 --> 00:31:58,680
What is it now?
Yeah.

508
00:32:00,200 --> 00:32:02,640
But he showed me for like 10
straight minutes his tattoo

509
00:32:02,640 --> 00:32:04,840
earlier.
Yeah, he'll be all right.

510
00:32:05,760 --> 00:32:07,680
He'll be OK.
No, I it's.

511
00:32:08,640 --> 00:32:09,640
Pretty.
Cool.

512
00:32:09,640 --> 00:32:11,960
There's there's a reason why
we're the infinite rabbit hole

513
00:32:11,960 --> 00:32:14,800
with a jackalope.
It's a it's a thing.

514
00:32:15,120 --> 00:32:21,840
You know, it's a thing.
But yeah, cool man.

515
00:32:22,520 --> 00:32:26,400
Jeff, you got any questions?
Not really, man, to be honest

516
00:32:26,400 --> 00:32:29,520
with you, I don't know a lot of
Cryptid.

517
00:32:29,520 --> 00:32:31,040
I'm not the cryptic guy to be
honest with you.

518
00:32:31,040 --> 00:32:33,240
So you know, it's a little out
of my wheelhouse.

519
00:32:33,240 --> 00:32:35,040
The the brick sets.
I'm about that.

520
00:32:36,560 --> 00:32:38,520
He's upset that you're not doing
any NASA sets.

521
00:32:39,160 --> 00:32:42,640
You know, like, yeah, use some
conspiracy sets, man, Throw,

522
00:32:42,720 --> 00:32:45,120
throw conspiracies.
I don't know how you would do

523
00:32:45,120 --> 00:32:46,960
that or what you would do to be
honest.

524
00:32:46,960 --> 00:32:50,160
But you know, give me like a
Montauk chair or like a what's

525
00:32:51,040 --> 00:32:53,720
another good one?
Fucking 9 eleveners?

526
00:32:53,720 --> 00:32:54,920
No, don't do that.
Don't do it.

527
00:32:59,080 --> 00:33:01,600
No like a saucer or TR3V or
something?

528
00:33:01,600 --> 00:33:03,680
That'd be pretty cool.
TR3B.

529
00:33:03,680 --> 00:33:06,920
A TR3B would be sick.
I would build ATR 3B.

530
00:33:07,400 --> 00:33:11,680
That'd be cool.
You familiar with that Alex?

531
00:33:11,680 --> 00:33:14,640
The TR3.
BI have no idea what it is, I'm

532
00:33:14,680 --> 00:33:17,800
looking it up right now.
Yeah, look up the TR3B man it.

533
00:33:17,800 --> 00:33:21,120
Is the Tri the big triangular
UFO?

534
00:33:21,120 --> 00:33:25,320
It's actually the, there's a
patent and everything out for it

535
00:33:25,320 --> 00:33:31,000
from the US government.
OK, yeah, it's, you know,

536
00:33:31,120 --> 00:33:34,480
people, there's, there's been
many reports, especially you can

537
00:33:34,480 --> 00:33:41,520
go through like the the MUFON
archives and everything and, and

538
00:33:41,800 --> 00:33:44,280
look at the descriptions that
people report and you'd be like,

539
00:33:44,280 --> 00:33:48,680
Yep, that's the TR 3B.
Yeah, triangular spacecraft,

540
00:33:48,680 --> 00:33:50,440
pretty simple.
I mean, I'm not telling you how

541
00:33:50,440 --> 00:33:52,800
to run your business.
I'm just saying if you had ATR 3

542
00:33:53,880 --> 00:33:55,520
BI would throw it in the
shopping cart for sure.

543
00:33:55,520 --> 00:34:00,680
You know 100% but no that that's
pretty sick.

544
00:34:00,680 --> 00:34:03,640
It's a good idea for sure.
I mean there, there's, there's a

545
00:34:03,640 --> 00:34:07,720
lot, I mean, you know, there's a
never ending list of cryptids,

546
00:34:07,720 --> 00:34:09,760
man, you could, you can go on
forever and then that's.

547
00:34:09,800 --> 00:34:11,320
What I'm saying, it's a good
idea.

548
00:34:11,320 --> 00:34:14,280
I mean, you know, and you're
doing it, you're following

549
00:34:14,280 --> 00:34:15,639
through.
So kudos to you.

550
00:34:15,920 --> 00:34:18,480
You know, I also like to start
businesses, but I also have a

551
00:34:18,480 --> 00:34:20,000
problem of like following
through on them.

552
00:34:20,000 --> 00:34:25,159
So get on you brother.
This is, this is business number

553
00:34:25,159 --> 00:34:28,040
like 52.
And I finally followed through

554
00:34:28,040 --> 00:34:32,719
on one, you know, it was, it was
I, I talked to the right people

555
00:34:33,159 --> 00:34:36,120
when I first started and they
didn't let me quit.

556
00:34:36,600 --> 00:34:40,960
So it was, it was a good support
system that just kept pushing

557
00:34:40,960 --> 00:34:43,760
and pushing.
And then we started selling

558
00:34:43,760 --> 00:34:46,840
them.
And then just random people that

559
00:34:46,840 --> 00:34:51,159
I've I've never talked to before
or sending me messages to to

560
00:34:51,159 --> 00:34:54,040
keep pushing and keep going.
So here we are.

561
00:34:54,600 --> 00:34:57,000
That's all you could do, man.
You never in the IT just keeps

562
00:34:57,000 --> 00:35:00,800
compiling on itself, right.
So you never know, like one

563
00:35:00,800 --> 00:35:03,840
person might listen to this show
and that person might be

564
00:35:03,840 --> 00:35:07,840
connected to somebody who can
get you in on some level that,

565
00:35:07,920 --> 00:35:10,200
you know, whatever.
It's it.

566
00:35:10,280 --> 00:35:11,360
Yeah, it's crazy, but it's.
Cool.

567
00:35:11,360 --> 00:35:13,560
The ideas come from everywhere.
Oh yeah.

568
00:35:13,600 --> 00:35:19,040
Great.
If I you like books, got it

569
00:35:19,040 --> 00:35:20,320
right.
Yeah, at least chat at.

570
00:35:20,640 --> 00:35:21,880
Least chat.
I know you don't.

571
00:35:21,880 --> 00:35:22,760
Jeff, shut up.
I don't care.

572
00:35:24,280 --> 00:35:28,520
So there's these two books by
George Eberhardt.

573
00:35:28,720 --> 00:35:30,680
They're called Mysterious
creatures, a guy to

574
00:35:30,680 --> 00:35:34,200
cryptozoology.
They're basically encyclopedias,

575
00:35:34,200 --> 00:35:35,960
man.
They're they're freaking

576
00:35:35,960 --> 00:35:37,840
awesome.
They have they're the same

577
00:35:37,840 --> 00:35:44,240
covers 1's A through M, the
other one's N through Z and like

578
00:35:44,240 --> 00:35:47,920
man, if you want a a stock full
of mysterious creatures and

579
00:35:47,920 --> 00:35:52,080
stuff to to, you know, to pick
through and everything, this is

580
00:35:52,280 --> 00:35:54,080
this is where what you need
right here.

581
00:35:54,560 --> 00:35:58,160
This is I mean every single
thing that you could possibly

582
00:35:58,160 --> 00:36:01,120
think of.
If it's if it hasn't just been

583
00:36:01,120 --> 00:36:06,520
discovered in the last five to
10 years, it's in these like, I

584
00:36:06,520 --> 00:36:09,320
mean, it is these things are are
amazing.

585
00:36:09,800 --> 00:36:16,760
I've recommended them to, to so
many podcasters or startup

586
00:36:17,080 --> 00:36:19,800
zoologists or you know,
whatever.

587
00:36:20,040 --> 00:36:24,040
They're amazing, amazing books.
Every time that I go in and

588
00:36:24,640 --> 00:36:28,640
restarting a topic for the show
or or whatever, this is where I

589
00:36:28,640 --> 00:36:30,120
start.
I always start in here to get a

590
00:36:30,120 --> 00:36:33,480
base level idea of what what the
topic is, especially when it

591
00:36:33,480 --> 00:36:38,080
comes to cryptids, lore,
mythologies or legends, whatever

592
00:36:38,080 --> 00:36:40,520
it is, right?
I always start here and then I

593
00:36:40,520 --> 00:36:43,960
go and grab a special specialty
book, something to to dig in a

594
00:36:43,960 --> 00:36:50,600
little deeper.
You literally have a never

595
00:36:50,600 --> 00:36:54,880
ending list of of things you can
make block sets out of man you.

596
00:36:55,680 --> 00:36:59,160
And there's there's so many
people out there that that would

597
00:36:59,160 --> 00:37:02,000
be willing to, to buy these and
and collect them.

598
00:37:02,280 --> 00:37:04,720
I know I'm going to my son like
that.

599
00:37:04,720 --> 00:37:08,480
The Hodag is my son's right.
He needed that and I was like,

600
00:37:08,480 --> 00:37:10,200
well, I'm not going to get you
one and not me one.

601
00:37:10,320 --> 00:37:15,320
So I, I bought the Mothman one.
My, my son's actually the one

602
00:37:15,320 --> 00:37:17,480
that discovered you.
I don't.

603
00:37:17,480 --> 00:37:19,240
Know how?
I don't know how.

604
00:37:19,520 --> 00:37:21,800
No idea.
I have no idea.

605
00:37:21,880 --> 00:37:24,560
And he's like, dad, did you know
that they make a Hodag Lego?

606
00:37:24,600 --> 00:37:28,280
And I was like, no, I did not.
But let's, let's, let's find

607
00:37:28,280 --> 00:37:30,520
that because we, we need that in
this house.

608
00:37:31,160 --> 00:37:36,200
And, and I found it and I was
looking through your stuff and I

609
00:37:36,200 --> 00:37:39,320
was like, you want that?
And he's like, yeah, I want

610
00:37:39,320 --> 00:37:44,960
that.
And I was like, OK, well, I, I

611
00:37:44,960 --> 00:37:46,840
was like, I looked at my wife.
I was like, you know, there's

612
00:37:46,840 --> 00:37:48,920
some really cool stuff on here.
She's like, you want something,

613
00:37:48,920 --> 00:37:51,520
don't you?
It's like, it's like I do.

614
00:37:51,520 --> 00:37:54,520
She's like, what do you want?
And I was like, well, I can't, I

615
00:37:54,520 --> 00:37:56,680
can't make up my mind.
It's like it's either, it's

616
00:37:56,680 --> 00:37:58,800
either Mothman or a dog, man.
It's one of the two.

617
00:37:58,800 --> 00:38:02,600
I can't.
She's like, well, don't you

618
00:38:02,600 --> 00:38:03,920
already have a bunch of Mothman
stuff?

619
00:38:03,920 --> 00:38:08,200
And I was like, yeah, yeah.
I was like, I'll just get both.

620
00:38:08,200 --> 00:38:13,440
She goes, no, pick one.
I was like, I was like, listen,

621
00:38:13,880 --> 00:38:17,760
do what I want.
But she, she runs the house.

622
00:38:17,760 --> 00:38:22,280
So in my life.
So, yeah, yeah.

623
00:38:23,440 --> 00:38:26,080
I mean, you got a, you got a
birthday once a year, right?

624
00:38:26,280 --> 00:38:31,120
Yeah, yeah, yeah, dog.
I'll get the dog, man someday,

625
00:38:31,560 --> 00:38:33,480
but I got now, I got to get that
Krampus.

626
00:38:33,480 --> 00:38:35,480
I got to get that Fightwood's
monster one day too, man.

627
00:38:35,640 --> 00:38:40,440
That thing is sick too now.
Have you thought about doing not

628
00:38:40,440 --> 00:38:45,360
just like the figures
themselves, but like, like sets?

629
00:38:45,360 --> 00:38:46,760
Like how do you, what would you
call it?

630
00:38:46,760 --> 00:38:49,360
Like a whole fucking
environment?

631
00:38:49,360 --> 00:38:50,640
You know what I mean?
You ever seen that?

632
00:38:52,000 --> 00:38:57,880
We have we we've considered
doing like a UFO kind of set

633
00:38:58,120 --> 00:39:02,520
that would have, you know, like
a an abduction scene, more or

634
00:39:02,520 --> 00:39:06,120
less.
That's a good point, but crash.

635
00:39:06,280 --> 00:39:08,600
Site with like 4 dead bodies at
it that'd.

636
00:39:08,880 --> 00:39:11,960
Be freaking awesome.
That would be an awesome, yeah.

637
00:39:12,560 --> 00:39:14,400
So that's, that's one that we've
considered.

638
00:39:15,840 --> 00:39:19,400
You know, part of the problem
is, is there's so many ideas,

639
00:39:19,880 --> 00:39:23,840
there's so many choices out
there that just trying to decide

640
00:39:23,840 --> 00:39:29,080
which ones to do, you know,
which ones are people going to

641
00:39:29,080 --> 00:39:33,360
like that that keep it going.
Most of these sets that we're

642
00:39:33,360 --> 00:39:39,560
getting, the bigger ones we're
getting in runs of 500 was the

643
00:39:39,560 --> 00:39:44,680
dog man up to 3000 was the moth
man.

644
00:39:45,360 --> 00:39:49,920
So they're, they're very limited
runs, not a lot of sets made,

645
00:39:50,640 --> 00:39:55,400
but you know, it's, it's just
expensive to, to produce them

646
00:39:55,400 --> 00:39:59,600
and, and get them over here.
So trying to decide which ones

647
00:39:59,600 --> 00:40:04,800
to, to focus on and, you know,
to, to be able to break even, to

648
00:40:04,800 --> 00:40:07,960
keep going.
It's difficult.

649
00:40:08,400 --> 00:40:13,040
And some of the some of the
scene sets require so many

650
00:40:13,040 --> 00:40:20,880
pieces that the price of the set
would be, you know, $100 and.

651
00:40:21,440 --> 00:40:25,920
That's a hard trigger to pull
for an alternative brand brick

652
00:40:25,920 --> 00:40:31,920
set that's for for most people.
And so we're, we're trying to

653
00:40:32,560 --> 00:40:36,960
get our name out there and let
them know, you know, for quality

654
00:40:36,960 --> 00:40:41,160
and then they're more willing
to, but it's just, you know,

655
00:40:41,160 --> 00:40:44,160
making making a name for
yourself in the community first.

656
00:40:44,160 --> 00:40:47,160
And then I think some of the
bigger sets will come.

657
00:40:48,320 --> 00:40:49,320
I get that.
Yeah, you could.

658
00:40:49,400 --> 00:40:53,320
You could think about ideas and
even design all the ideas all

659
00:40:53,320 --> 00:40:56,640
day, design sets all day if you
wanted, but it takes the time,

660
00:40:56,640 --> 00:40:59,960
but then really the money to
even just get the prototype over

661
00:40:59,960 --> 00:41:02,520
and then build it like you were
talking about earlier, let alone

662
00:41:03,120 --> 00:41:06,560
manufacture X amount of yeah, so
yeah.

663
00:41:06,640 --> 00:41:10,560
I've got, I've got a shelf of a
shelf of them completed, ready

664
00:41:10,560 --> 00:41:15,760
to go.
It's just, you know, financially

665
00:41:15,920 --> 00:41:20,080
we can only release so many at a
time and then, you know, it's,

666
00:41:20,080 --> 00:41:26,480
it's finding stores that want to
carry our products and them

667
00:41:26,480 --> 00:41:31,640
having, you know, scalp space
for a Lego takes up a lot of

668
00:41:31,640 --> 00:41:36,560
space on shelves and hard to to
get into their spot.

669
00:41:37,280 --> 00:41:39,640
But we've we've focused a lot on
a.

670
00:41:40,520 --> 00:41:43,160
Billion, a Lego billionaire
listens to the show and he's

671
00:41:43,160 --> 00:41:46,440
going to hear this and he's
going to, he's going to fire a a

672
00:41:46,440 --> 00:41:49,920
couple 100 million way to get
you set up with all the sets you

673
00:41:49,920 --> 00:41:53,160
could think of, you know?
That we we, we'd have a lot of

674
00:41:53,160 --> 00:41:55,160
sets coming out real quick if
that was the case.

675
00:41:55,800 --> 00:41:59,080
There you go.
So do you design everything?

676
00:41:59,520 --> 00:42:03,720
Everything's designed by you.
I don't design everything.

677
00:42:05,120 --> 00:42:09,040
I started designing and then I
work with.

678
00:42:09,040 --> 00:42:11,760
There's two other guys that I'll
I'll work with.

679
00:42:12,960 --> 00:42:16,840
They may design some of a set
and then I'll design another

680
00:42:16,840 --> 00:42:22,200
aspect, but in the end it would
be more of a I'm the head

681
00:42:22,200 --> 00:42:26,720
designer and I work with a
couple guys that'll help make

682
00:42:26,720 --> 00:42:29,480
sure that things aren't being
overlooked.

683
00:42:29,840 --> 00:42:33,800
And, you know, we're just
constantly challenging ourselves

684
00:42:33,800 --> 00:42:37,320
to like, challenging each other
to, to do better with them.

685
00:42:38,880 --> 00:42:41,560
Mothman fell apart again.
I do.

686
00:42:41,560 --> 00:42:48,680
I didn't have it together right,
but the the Mothman has some

687
00:42:48,680 --> 00:42:56,200
really intricate builds building
pieces to it, like let me grab

688
00:42:56,200 --> 00:42:57,920
the the bottom half of this
right.

689
00:42:58,400 --> 00:43:03,560
So for those of you that that
may not have heard, I dropped it

690
00:43:03,760 --> 00:43:07,920
when right before the the
episode started and shattered

691
00:43:08,280 --> 00:43:11,720
Mothman.
But if you can see, I tried to

692
00:43:11,960 --> 00:43:17,840
pull down my, my, my curtain
here to try to get rid of some

693
00:43:17,840 --> 00:43:20,800
of the glare so that you can
kind of see a little bit better.

694
00:43:20,800 --> 00:43:24,200
But I mean, there's a there's a
lot of detail in this.

695
00:43:24,200 --> 00:43:27,080
Look at this.
I don't know, can I?

696
00:43:27,560 --> 00:43:28,840
There we go.
That's better.

697
00:43:29,720 --> 00:43:35,120
Look at this.
And they bend right and they

698
00:43:35,120 --> 00:43:37,000
click in.
And that locks together, so

699
00:43:37,000 --> 00:43:39,720
it'll it'll stand better.
And like, that's a ball and

700
00:43:39,720 --> 00:43:46,400
socket, right?
I mean, there's a lot here.

701
00:43:47,480 --> 00:43:50,040
And you got the shiny Heine.
Yeah, right there.

702
00:43:50,400 --> 00:43:51,880
It's very own shiny Heine, I
mean.

703
00:43:54,840 --> 00:43:57,640
There's, there's a, there's a
lot of detail in this man.

704
00:43:57,640 --> 00:44:00,080
You guys killed it.
It's awesome.

705
00:44:00,080 --> 00:44:01,760
Thank you.
And my favorite part about the

706
00:44:01,760 --> 00:44:03,920
Mothman is the the wings,
actually.

707
00:44:05,160 --> 00:44:09,080
Yeah, we went back and forth on
how to do the wings.

708
00:44:09,240 --> 00:44:13,800
And that's that's kind of where
that collaboration of all of us

709
00:44:13,800 --> 00:44:17,680
together came together and one
guy was like, now we can do

710
00:44:17,680 --> 00:44:19,880
better on the wings.
Let's do like mosaic.

711
00:44:20,440 --> 00:44:24,520
And, you know, there's just a
lot of different pieces

712
00:44:24,520 --> 00:44:28,680
overlaying on each other on the
wing that give it, you know,

713
00:44:29,000 --> 00:44:34,880
shape and, and some detail.
Yeah, again, I'm not 100% sure I

714
00:44:34,880 --> 00:44:38,760
have that configuration correct
because that was a bit of it

715
00:44:38,760 --> 00:44:41,920
that that broke off.
You can see there's a lot of a

716
00:44:41,920 --> 00:44:45,520
lot of different pieces.
You know, there's a lot of

717
00:44:45,680 --> 00:44:48,960
smooth and rough patches.
Then you got, you know, some

718
00:44:48,960 --> 00:44:53,680
circular and triangular bits and
adds, like you said, a lot of

719
00:44:53,680 --> 00:44:57,640
nice, really nice texture to it,
man, It's, it's a really nice

720
00:44:57,640 --> 00:44:59,280
piece.
It really is.

721
00:44:59,400 --> 00:45:03,480
I was blown away by it when I
when I finally had it all built

722
00:45:03,480 --> 00:45:06,760
up and really upset myself when
I dropped it.

723
00:45:08,880 --> 00:45:11,360
I was like, man.
That was the the number one

724
00:45:11,360 --> 00:45:13,520
selling item at the Mothman
Museum last year.

725
00:45:13,800 --> 00:45:15,920
That's awesome, man.
That's really cool.

726
00:45:16,120 --> 00:45:17,880
Good for you.
Thank you.

727
00:45:18,440 --> 00:45:20,640
Really cool.
I'm going to definitely keep an

728
00:45:20,680 --> 00:45:22,600
eye on the website, man.
What do you got coming up?

729
00:45:22,720 --> 00:45:26,480
Anything.
The the Wendigo is going to be

730
00:45:26,480 --> 00:45:28,640
the next one coming.
Cool that one.

731
00:45:28,640 --> 00:45:31,800
We're hoping, hoping for a May
release on that.

732
00:45:31,920 --> 00:45:35,520
Just finishing up a couple
details on the packaging and

733
00:45:36,120 --> 00:45:40,240
then it should hit production
and start being made.

734
00:45:40,560 --> 00:45:46,000
Sweet well, we'll this episode
should come out sometime mid to

735
00:45:46,000 --> 00:45:54,360
late March, so we'll we'll post
some links whenever, whenever I

736
00:45:54,360 --> 00:45:57,080
see it on the website, I'll post
some links and in the.

737
00:45:58,000 --> 00:45:59,720
I will let you know when it's
coming.

738
00:46:00,120 --> 00:46:04,440
Yeah, man, let me know.
I'll post some links and I'm

739
00:46:04,440 --> 00:46:08,440
going to keep my eyes, eyes out
for these these scenery pieces,

740
00:46:08,440 --> 00:46:11,240
man.
I want to see like a a Mothman

741
00:46:11,240 --> 00:46:14,400
on top of Silver Bridge or in
like the TNT area or something.

742
00:46:18,240 --> 00:46:20,680
Just a reminder one of the one
of the bumpers would be cool.

743
00:46:21,120 --> 00:46:24,840
Anybody in the chat don't click
on links that aren't posted by

744
00:46:24,840 --> 00:46:28,440
one of the hosts please?
I don't know who that is.

745
00:46:28,920 --> 00:46:33,640
Nobody, nobody click on that.
Can we have one of the?

746
00:46:33,640 --> 00:46:35,400
I'm going to.
Try to delete it.

747
00:46:35,520 --> 00:46:37,040
I don't know how to do this shit
on my phone.

748
00:46:37,680 --> 00:46:40,080
You know, you're on the phone.
One of the moderators get rid of

749
00:46:40,080 --> 00:46:41,480
it.
Oh, Church.

750
00:46:41,480 --> 00:46:42,280
Got it.
Thanks.

751
00:46:43,360 --> 00:46:45,440
Good job kid.
Sorry, Alex, we just.

752
00:46:46,040 --> 00:46:49,400
Said oh, you're good.
Spammer in the chat, not cool.

753
00:46:49,720 --> 00:46:55,320
Cool, man, Jeff, you're good.
Yeah, I'm good.

754
00:46:55,320 --> 00:46:57,600
Sorry, I was distracted by the
spammer in the chat and also my

755
00:46:57,600 --> 00:47:00,240
cat was scratching the fuck out
of my couch, so I was just there

756
00:47:00,240 --> 00:47:03,040
for a second.
No, I'm, I'm good, man.

757
00:47:03,040 --> 00:47:05,680
Yeah, I'm, I'm, I'm impressed by
the stuff too.

758
00:47:05,680 --> 00:47:08,280
I don't have one to be as
impressed but I will be getting

759
00:47:08,280 --> 00:47:11,360
some.
And definitely like I said, if

760
00:47:11,360 --> 00:47:13,800
you expand into the conspiracy
world, I'll be looking for those

761
00:47:13,800 --> 00:47:16,320
too man for sure.
What?

762
00:47:16,360 --> 00:47:17,920
What?
What do you suggest if we were

763
00:47:17,920 --> 00:47:19,600
going to go into the conspiracy
world?

764
00:47:19,800 --> 00:47:22,320
Well, you know we.
PR3B.

765
00:47:23,000 --> 00:47:26,240
We talked about that, but to be
honest, I looked and I, I found

766
00:47:26,240 --> 00:47:27,560
some.
You wouldn't be the first, but I

767
00:47:27,560 --> 00:47:30,240
don't know if you care about
that, but I don't know, there's

768
00:47:30,240 --> 00:47:32,880
a lot of stuff you could do.
I'd have to think about it

769
00:47:32,880 --> 00:47:35,480
though, 'cause I'm not a brick
set guy, right?

770
00:47:35,480 --> 00:47:37,360
I don't know how that would
translate.

771
00:47:37,360 --> 00:47:41,120
I don't know how I could, how
you could translate like nano

772
00:47:41,120 --> 00:47:45,440
bot mind controlled chemtrails
in a brick set, right?

773
00:47:45,440 --> 00:47:48,400
But there's a way, I'm sure.
Yeah, right.

774
00:47:49,880 --> 00:47:52,080
There's all kinds of stuff you
could do, man, You could do the

775
00:47:52,080 --> 00:47:54,960
Philadelphia experiment with
like bodies hanging out of

776
00:47:55,040 --> 00:47:57,840
bulkhead walls on on ships and
stuff.

777
00:47:58,120 --> 00:48:00,120
You could do something like
that, but that's more of like

778
00:48:00,120 --> 00:48:02,440
the scene situation.
You know, you could do like the

779
00:48:02,440 --> 00:48:05,800
5G towers that are disguised
like trees, right?

780
00:48:05,800 --> 00:48:10,280
Like that'd be a good build.
And you know, I don't know,

781
00:48:10,360 --> 00:48:13,480
like.
There's a.

782
00:48:13,560 --> 00:48:15,440
Few cryptos I would definitely
get, you know.

783
00:48:15,720 --> 00:48:16,800
What about the man's?
School.

784
00:48:16,800 --> 00:48:18,160
What about the birds aren't
real?

785
00:48:19,000 --> 00:48:21,040
Birds are real.
Oh, like a bird drone?

786
00:48:21,080 --> 00:48:25,720
Yeah, a bird drone, dude.

lot of festivals with a six year

talking about going to that.
That's awesome.

832
00:51:29,480 --> 00:51:32,600
Well, you know, Jake and I might
actually go up to that, that

833
00:51:32,600 --> 00:51:35,640
Rhinelander one that that seems
like a pretty cool one.

00:51:38,400 --> 00:51:41,240
