Bonus Show: Greg Carlwood | The Practical & Esoteric Oddities Of The Charlie Kirk Assassination

Okay, boys and girls, so what had happened was, I found a book about an interesting, unexpected topic, these mysterious round towers in Ireland and Scotland and the energetic properties they seem to have. I established an interview time that was pretty inconvenient for the guys in the studio, just so we could make it work with the author in Thailand. He confirmed the day before I got down there and he completely ghosted me. I hope he's okay, I still haven't gotten a response from him even a day later. But the show must go on, so I was sitting in the chair, studio time bought and paid for with my man in the booth, and he says, well, do you have any promo stuff we could shoot while you're here? And I said, nah, you know, I'd have to be prepared for something like that. I'm not really a shoot from the hip guy. I don't say stuff to hear myself talk. If I don't have interesting material, then I just don't do something. But, I says to the guy, now that I think about it, I, like everyone else, have been combing over so much Charlie Kirk stuff that if you give me 10 or 15 minutes while we wait for this guest to maybe show up, I'll see if I can organize all the screenshots and threads that I've saved and maybe we can record something about that. Well, we did it. It's a pretty different thing for me, but I went through all the esoteric threads, the weird symbols and codes, the deeper family connections and all the interesting underreported stuff I've found. And you know, I'm not really a primary researcher. I'm a compiler of interesting points. So I said, okay, I think we got something here. Let's mirror my laptop up on the screen behind me and let's just see what happens. Well, I think it turned out to be a pretty good presentation when presentations aren't even my usual thing. And I had no intention of covering the Charlie Kirk assassination to this degree because everyone else is. So I tried guys. I tried to do a show about something completely unexpected, obscure, esoteric, and well outside the scope of the exhausting news cycle. But the universe opened up a space for me and it all sort of fell into place. There are other factors, but I don't want to repeat exactly what I say in that video. So this is just to let all the free listeners know that there is a rare 50 minute solo presentation of this material out there now as a plus member bonus episode. There will still be the usual five shows for this month. This is just extra. And if you're groaning and rolling your eyes, I understand. But I put a lot out there for free without stuffing it with ads. And the reality is if I'm in the studio and I'm asking them to edit something up and include all my reference material and screenshots, et cetera, et cetera, it is costing me money. And I hope enough regular people out there are interested in such a thing from me and the wider scope of what plus offers to come on in. It is what it is. Sorry. I won't let better help and hymns and keeps pay my bills. Only interested, regular working class, curious folks do that. And I'm sick of apologizing for it, but I just did. Anyway, obviously I'm not the first one out to break any news. I do like to be the most thorough though. And with a few more days to process added insights have emerged and new shit has come to light. If you've been following the research, it's probably not anything you haven't heard already. I don't want to overhype. And technically you don't even have to pay anything. If you get the free trial and cancel after you check it out, you do have that option, I guess, but this opportunity did present itself for me to take the temperature and see if you guys want more of this sort of thing from me, maybe on more obscure material that isn't every single place you look online, but this happened organically and it was actually pretty cathartic to unload all the stuff I was bottling up in my mind. And while I'm shilling plus here, I will just add that I was thinking about the shows that I enjoy as a listener. Yeah, they're all full of ads and it's very annoying. Fine. We know that. Then there are shows that do value for value, but it takes up so much airtime that it's even more annoying than ads. If I'm being honest, then there's some pop culture and gaming podcasts that I like, but sometimes I put a show on and go through an entire drive to wherever and they haven't even brought up a single game. It's just what they did over the weekend, where they ate and a bunch of filler that helps surprise fit in another ad break. So I have tried to structure THC to avoid all the things that I dislike as a listener of other shows. And you can say that the eight or 12 bucks for plus is annoying. It is, but it is also in your control. If you pay the eight bucks, then your experience changes to a tight, dense, info rich, two hour show with no breaks and no filler at all. With a host who tries hard to stay very focused on the material and treats it like a real job. These other annoyances that I've been mentioning, well, they're just baked in to other shows. You can't do anything. I guess you can skip ahead, but even that's annoying if you're trying to do something else and don't want to pick up your phone five times to get through a one hour podcast. So I think that is a good and fair point that I make the show. And then if you like it and you don't want to miss half, you can throw a tip my way and get twice as much and no other annoying stuff. I wish I could pay $8 to no agenda to get a longer show with none of the excessive breaks, but we all have our models. I stand by mine being the best when it comes to the ratio of time spent shilling versus providing actual content minus what I'm doing right now. But there it is again. I wasn't trying to jump on the tragedy bandwagon or capitalize on a trend. I think my track record is clear. I don't do that, but it takes two to tango. And on this day, this time I had to find a way to dance alone. So click the link in the show notes or go to the higher side chats.com. If you're interested in a walkthrough of the practical and esoteric threads that have come out of a deep dive of this event, hopefully I'll see you there. But if not, there will be another free hour long, no caveats, no ads interview coming at you in the next couple of days. So that's it. Sorry to hit you with this little time waster, but if I'm going to spend the time and effort to make such a thing, I have to at least let people know it exists. And now, you know, all right. All right. Enjoy your day. Take care. And maybe this is what finally does it to get you to scale that paywall and I'm out.
