What is the Betz Sphere, and why did it become a famous mystery?
I don't think I'd pass an FBI background check. That can't possibly be true. Everyone's Googled aliens at some point. Um, you know, at the very least and see them cheeks.
Even though I sit in him during the or sit in with him Freudian slip there, buddy. Guys go outside. Reports of my demise have been greatly exaggerated.
Mattis, I have a revelation for you. Is it in the book?
No. Oh, different revelation. Okay.
I found a mini bets peer for you.
What the hell is that? What no no actually what is this? What do you what does
it seem like it is? A
ball bearing? A
valve? Plug thing? I d neither of those. Does it go in your butt? No, there's no flared base. That was not the question I asked. Give it a roll. Okay. Does it not
behave similarly? I I suppose. Th dude, you woke me up so early this morning. I am still recovering. I was planning to go get coffee and then the dogs were a problem and now you're handing me a giant anal bead.
Like or a very tiny bed sphere.
I suppose you're not run it does make a pleasing sound.
Right? Isn't it nice? So I have had that my entire life. Why? Биказ when I was a kid. I thought the sound was cool and it was fun to roll into like Legos. Uhhuh. And like you know, like a bowling ball and bowling. Destructive in nature. A hundred percent, yeah. Okay. But So I looked it up because I was curious. Uh-huh. Because uh apparently it is a I think it's Japanese. Um usually Fushiji. Basically the Japanese version of a Fushiji. But Japan the Fushiji is Japanese. Different though. So usually there's multiple. And you put them in your hands and you roll them around like, you know, you would as if it was a minor juggling thing. Um and the sound It's supposed to be pleasing, things like that. But I just found it funny because as we were covering the bet sphere
It just described a lot of that. Yeah. Stainless steel ball. Didn't it have something inside? Yeah, it was a couple of ball bearings and I think a metal coil. Yeah. Did it have a pleasing sound or did it just make a sound from the things inside?
I can't remember. It's early. It's this is early for me. This is fair. I'm usually still asleep right now.
This is fair. For your for y'all's knowledge, we started recording this just before ten AM. So Yeah. Um don't judge me. I work late. Um But that's the thing is like so I pulled this out and I was like, it's a little battered and it's obviously a lot smaller, but it reminds me a lot of what we were gonna
do.
Yeah. So
I'm still not totally sure what the hell they found.
It's a it's a very strange s Like I I do like this one because it's such a harmless conspiracy theory. Mm-hmm. Like Yeah, there's no like ill intent really that could be perceived by it.
It's just a ball. It's just a ball. It's just a little guy. It's just a little dude. Um also Ethan's dead. We cremated him. Ethan's dead and we have killed him. We consumed his flesh. No, not the long pork. Uh I don't know, he's not that tall.
Not the average size port.
He committed uh he committed crimes against humanity. And also a nineteen eighty one Honda Civic. A rare find, which makes it extremely heinous. Yeah. A hatchback
too. Yeah. How could you? I don't know. How could he? I'd uh how could anyone?
Truly, you know what, that's on me for hiring him. I should've known. Should've known he was too into cars. Should have known there had to be something there. Every time a hatchback drove down the road, it was just uh he looked a little too long. He looked a little too long. Yeah. Um, you know. Yeah, I thought maybe we should put all the civics in hijabs. But I just don't think it would have been enough. No, it wouldn't have helped. Yeah. He was tried by a jury of his peers. We found twelve identical men. Except for one who was a dwarf. Slightly less than average sized. Yes, yes. But there he was balanced out by one who was a giant, so.
Mm-hmm.
It was it was truly a whimsical jury.
It was. Yeah. Um so despite the fact that we have a little many Bet sphere here. Uh is there anything in particular you're in the mood to talk about?
When's this coming out?
Uh next week. If we do the live tonight. Right.
