What themes are introduced at the beginning of Bob Lazar's story?

Unknown 0:01
There's no place to escape to. This is the last. On the left. That's when the cannibalism started. Who's that?
Ben Kissel 0:20
You know what this whole episode made me realize? It's like I'm sad in one way. Because your life's a lie?
Unknown 0:27
Yeah.
Ben Kissel 0:30
No, not this carefully constructed, wonderful character that you see. Oh, let me have a sip out of your $3,000 Mufon cup. Hey, I only did it for five years. It was only about $1,500.
Marcus Parks 0:42
And please, he did it for the polo, not for the cup.
Ben Kissel 0:46
And the lens. The Lanyard was quite good.
Marcus Parks 0:48
I didn't even know we got the cup.
Ben Kissel 0:49
I don't know where that came from. But one thing I missed about this time period is going back to the world of Art Bell, going back to Bill Cooper, Bob Lazar, these real old heads know how awesome it used to be. But the one thing that keeps coming up in all of my research is what a missed opportunity the Mexican community didn't take during 2012. Yeah. How during 2012, if they had just on December 21st, all we need is one guy covered in LED lights, dressed in a Quetzalcoatl-like uniform. I'm saying Mexico's different. I'm saying the world's different.
Marcus Parks 1:30
You think so?
Ben Kissel 1:31
If they leaned into their Mayan-ness, if they leaned into how to, you know, just take the calendar.
Marcus Parks 1:38
Take the power back. Yeah, yeah.
Ben Kissel 1:40
Take the power back. No, it's Mexican time now. Now y'all are on Mexican time. They could have done so much stuff with that, but they just don't capitalize on that kind of, like, world-bending conspiracy. Yeah, man. If they would have just wore a bunch of lights and convinced us all that we were dead. Dude!
Dude!
Marcus Parks 1:58
That's all they had to do. Welcome to the last podcast on the left, ladies and gentlemen. We're here solving the world's crises. My name is Marcus Parks. I'm here with a man with questionable opinions, Henry Zebrowski.
Ben Kissel 2:12
From 1992 to 2012, all they talked about was 2012.
Marcus Parks 2:18
Yes.
Ben Kissel 2:19
No, they talked about Y2K a lot. Oh, yeah, I forgot.
Marcus Parks 2:21
I'm sorry. It was mostly Y2K, and then they switched to 2012 somewhere around 2009.
Ben Kissel 2:26
Yeah, because it was easy to switch the bumper stickers. You just had to take two numbers. There was so much banking on 2012. Yeah. For all of these theories. There really was. Yeah. I mean, I remember we were very excited. I remember I had my pack of cigarettes because I had already quit. And I got my pack of cigarettes. I was so ready to smoke my fucking end of the world cigarettes.
Marcus Parks 2:46
Yeah. And if I remember correctly, the day came and passed. I did not even notice it because I was too busy working on an episode.
Unknown 2:54
Yeah.
Marcus Parks 2:54
Yeah, completely. Shame. Shame. Shame on me and shame on Ed Larson for coming in 10 seconds into the show and already ripping this dickhead to pieces.
Ben Kissel 3:07
There's no reason for it. I am a little bit skeptical, but I will say after we went to contact in the desert twice, I believe it a little more only because I know that there's no money in this.
Unknown 3:18
I know that they're all completely broke.
Marcus Parks 3:22
That really is the thing that unlocks UFO knowledge. Because there's always this idea that all these people are doing it for the money. They're doing it to get some sort of like, there's never any money. There's nothing.
Ben Kissel 3:34
You should have tried the salmon. I mean, man. painful divorce like literally no friends no job no no hiring prospects bad bad psychological reviews everybody hates you at the dmv ufology cores you out and leaves you for dead yeah the only person is your friend is a guy in a galactic uniform on an oxygen tank you know Even he's just sitting there being like, you know, I actually don't know if I'm going to get to the Saturn recon 2025 this year. Obviously, I have some form of advanced tuberculosis. They don't know how it came back. You hear this thing about the Jews? They poisoned me from the government.
Marcus Parks 4:18
And the reason why we're talking about MUFOM, we're talking about contact in the desert, is because today we are finally getting around to talking about one of, I would say, one of the modern fathers of ufology, ufology, as it were. Definitely conspiracy theory and weirdo thought.
Ben Kissel 4:36
Mm-hmm.
Marcus Parks 4:36
We're going to be talking about a man named Bob Lazar. Bob Lazar is more or less the guy who brought the concept of Area 51 into the larger global consciousness.
