Hosts like the “all phenomena connected” framing; recall to Missing 411 overlaps (hunters, lights, UFOs, vanishings).

00:23:05 – Paulides’ Backstory & Production Notes

00:47:58 – Dean Radin & Real Magic
Deep dive into Radin’s work (psi, mind-matter, precognition), frustration with “pseudo-skepticism,” and the idea that persistent anomalies deserve serious study.

00:52:51 – Skeptics vs. Unknowns
Philosophical riff: comfort with ambiguity vs. compulsive debunking; why people cling to narrow materialism; when to leave mysteries open.

Host debuts a Billy-Joel-rhythm parody about the blaze (without the melody), planning to play it at show’s end; segues to EU balloon/drone stories.

01:34:47 – Lithuania’s Cigarette Balloons
Hot-air balloons ferrying smuggled cigs into EU airspace, airport temporarily closed; thousands of packs recovered; why not shoot them down? Tax avoidance economics.

01:39:50 – “Majestic Tiger” LEGO…with a Butt
Hilarious/earnest review of LEGO set 31129—the infamous “butthole tiger.” Design choices, Technic part constraints, and why the detail exists.
