0:05 [SPEAKER_00]: in the Bay of Bengal, between India and Myanmar. 0:10 [SPEAKER_00]: There is an island roughly the size of Manhattan. 0:14 [SPEAKER_00]: From above, it looks like a floating emerald forest, for steam, untouched, beautiful. 0:22 [SPEAKER_00]: But this paradise hides a deadly secret. 0:26 [SPEAKER_00]: For thousands of years, a tribe has called this island home. 0:31 [SPEAKER_00]: They've watched ships pass, they've seen helicopters circle ahead, they've witnessed the modern world creep closer and closer. 0:41 [SPEAKER_00]: and they've made one thing absolutely clear. 0:45 [SPEAKER_00]: Come to our shores and you will die. 0:49 [SPEAKER_00]: In 2018, a young American missionary paddle toward this forbidden beach, Bible in hand, convinced he could bring salvation to what he called Satan's last stronghold. 1:03 [SPEAKER_00]: The fisherman who dropped him off, watched from their boat as the tribe dragged his body across the sand. 1:10 [SPEAKER_00]: Tonight we descend into one of Earth's last truly forbidden places, where arrows fly faster than words. 1:19 [SPEAKER_00]: In the penalty for trespassing, it's death. 1:24 [SPEAKER_00]: Hello friend. 1:26 [SPEAKER_00]: welcome to the haunted bunker, where mysteries hide. 1:30 [SPEAKER_00]: I'm Shane Waters, and tonight my brother Josh takes us to North Sentinel Island, a place so dangerous that the Indian government has made it illegal to even approach. 1:42 [SPEAKER_00]: The people who live there have remained completely isolated from the modern world, and they've killed to keep it that way. 1:50 [SPEAKER_00]: This is the story of the world's 1:58 [SPEAKER_03]: I read one of our postcards while I'm getting it. 2:00 [SPEAKER_03]: I'll have tough out here. 2:01 [SPEAKER_03]: This one says the Oregon coast from Debbie. 2:07 [SPEAKER_03]: We kidnapped Michelle and dragged her to the beach for a long weekend, hello from PNW or Oregon. 2:14 [SPEAKER_03]: FYI, I'm open to other kidnapping slash friend napkins. 2:18 [SPEAKER_03]: If you want to take me somewhere, miss ya, meet ya. 2:21 [SPEAKER_03]: Oh, it's cute. 2:23 [SPEAKER_03]: It's got a little whale tail. 2:24 [SPEAKER_03]: Hey, they were talking about whale tail. 2:26 [SPEAKER_03]: That's a long peeking out of the pants. 2:29 [SPEAKER_03]: It looks like a humpback whale. 2:30 [SPEAKER_03]: Those are one of my favorite animals. 2:31 [SPEAKER_03]: Their numbers have been increasing. 2:33 [SPEAKER_03]: They were endangered, but because of anti-hunting laws, and et cetera, and just healthier oceans, their numbers have really increased. 2:44 [SPEAKER_03]: Makes me happy. 2:45 [SPEAKER_00]: That was awesome. 2:47 [SPEAKER_00]: alright friend. 2:49 [SPEAKER_00]: It's time to descend. 2:51 [SPEAKER_00]: Tonight we're traveling to one of the most remote and dangerous places on earth. 2:56 [SPEAKER_00]: Josh has been researching a tribe that has successfully kept the entire modern world at bay, with arrows. 3:05 [SPEAKER_00]: Josh, did you bring a mystery for us? 3:06 [SPEAKER_00]: I did. 3:07 [SPEAKER_00]: Let me get it. 3:08 [SPEAKER_00]: From India. 3:09 [SPEAKER_03]: India? 3:10 [SPEAKER_03]: Well, you may find it hard to believe that in our modern world with drone satellites, cameras, AI, and all our other technologies, there could be places on Earth. 3:19 [SPEAKER_03]: We don't know much about. 3:21 [SPEAKER_03]: Aside from the depths of our oceans, there remain a few places on land that we still don't know a lot of out. 3:29 [SPEAKER_03]: Most of them are hidden due to dense jungles, but some remain unknown because it's just plain dangerous to go there. 3:36 [SPEAKER_03]: I don't know about Kim. 3:40 [SPEAKER_03]: Her basement. 3:42 [SPEAKER_03]: One of the most dangerous and deadly places is an island located in the Bay of Bengal between Myanmar and India. 3:50 [SPEAKER_03]: The island is called North Sentinel Island, and it is not only forbidden for any outsider to go there, it is quite literally deadly for those who try. 4:04 [SPEAKER_03]: Nor Sentinel Island is roughly the size of Manhattan, and it is protected by law to keep outsiders from even attempting to venture there, even though that doesn't always stop them. 4:17 [SPEAKER_03]: While a big part of the island's forbiddenness is to keep the inhabitants safe from outside diseases, it's actually us outsiders who have the most to benefit from it. 4:29 [SPEAKER_03]: On the island, there lives a tribe of mostly uncontacted people called the Sentinelese, and we know next to nothing about them. 4:39 [SPEAKER_03]: Only that they have no interest in anything off of their island, and that they have zero hesitation in killing anyone who dares to attempt a visit them. 4:50 [SPEAKER_03]: The tribe is the most isolated people in the world, and live as hunter-gatherers and they're densely forested home. 4:59 [SPEAKER_03]: They are nomadic on the island in either live in large, multi-family huts, or smaller 5:10 [SPEAKER_03]: They also use small narrow boats to fish in the shallow waters surrounding the island, and they are such ingenious conservationists that there is little evidence of their presence only island aside from the houses that they live in. 5:26 [SPEAKER_03]: What we do know about the islands and habitants comes from researchers who have monitored them from boats nearby, always making sure that they are far enough away that the arrows can't make it to their boats. 5:39 [SPEAKER_03]: We don't even know what these people actually call themselves because of the lack of contact, even their language is mostly unknown. 5:49 [SPEAKER_03]: What we do know is thanks to neighboring tribes from nearby islands who in the past did have some trade with the Sentinel-Es, and they tell us that the people are called the Chia D'Aquelquella. 6:02 [SPEAKER_03]: And to the best of our knowledge, the inhabitants are actually thriving on their island home and have every right to be leery of any outsiders. 6:13 [SPEAKER_03]: In the past, they were always aware of the neighboring islands, which were colonized when the British took over India. 6:21 [SPEAKER_03]: They knew that those islands and habitats were nearly wiped out due to disease and slave trade. 6:28 [SPEAKER_03]: Among those reasons, they were also aware that those once pristine islands, once the British came to them, invaded them, had their forest cut down and built upon by the White Devil. 6:41 [SPEAKER_03]: Even today, one of the neighboring islands, North Nicobar Island, is under threat of development. 6:47 [SPEAKER_03]: The Indian government is blamed plans to completely destroy that island's natural landscape by cutting down over 3 million trees and building a giant port city in its place, dubbed the Hong Kong of India. 7:04 [SPEAKER_03]: And I want to be clear that the inhabitants of North Sentinel Island are not an aggressive type per se. 7:11 [SPEAKER_03]: Among one another, they are a peaceful people known to be happy, healthy, and living in communion with nature. 7:18 [SPEAKER_03]: And their estimated population is anywhere from about 50 to 200 people. 7:26 [SPEAKER_03]: The only time they become aggressive is when they are defending their home as anyone would, especially when you know that it can lead to mass deaths, cultural extinction, and or slavery. 7:38 [SPEAKER_03]: Nor Sentinel Island is about five miles by four miles, and is predominantly flat, with the highest elevation at around 400 feet near the center. 7:50 [SPEAKER_03]: So there's no mountains or anything on the island, just a slight incline. 7:55 [SPEAKER_03]: And from the images I've seen, it is a gorgeous island. 7:58 [SPEAKER_03]: It looks like a giant floating forest surrounded by a small beach and coral reefs and has several natural harbors. 8:07 [SPEAKER_03]: It is part of a volcanic archipelago and have suffered from earthquakes and tsunamis in the past. 8:15 [SPEAKER_03]: The most recent primary contact we've had with them has been welfare checks after some natural disasters. 8:23 [SPEAKER_03]: Even then, it is to check from a distance and to deliver food and supplies, but only ones that they would naturally have like coconuts, you know, they're not dropping off like boxes of band-aids and stuff like that to them. 8:40 [SPEAKER_03]: But even then, after those disasters, the helicopters that drop supplies from the air returned with arrows shot through them. 8:50 [SPEAKER_03]: Now, the weapons of the Centaneles are one of their traditions that have changed because of outsiders. 8:56 [SPEAKER_03]: While we're once stone arrowheads, thanks to metal that has been washed ashore, they now have arrowheads that are strong enough to pierce boats and helicopters, so they don't actually have the means to mine metal or anything, but any shipwrecks that have washed up to their shore, they've made use of the metals from those. 9:20 [SPEAKER_03]: One of the earliest contacts with the tribe dates to the 1800s, when a British officer let a team to the island to establish contact. 9:30 [SPEAKER_03]: Some of the team were neighboring tribes from other islands who were forcibly taken as slaves to that island. 9:37 [SPEAKER_03]: When they got to Norse Sentinel Island, they did find the homes, but they were all completely abandoned. 9:44 [SPEAKER_03]: And after two days of searching, the invading white devils did find an elderly couple and two's children, all of which were immediately kidnapped. 9:55 [SPEAKER_03]: The older members of the tribe died shortly after they left the island from disease, and the children were taken back and dropped off of the island with gifts. 10:05 [SPEAKER_03]: They also most likely were infected with various Western diseases and probably transmitted those diseases to the tribe. 10:15 [SPEAKER_03]: Again, we don't know because there was no contact. 10:20 [SPEAKER_03]: Right. 10:20 [SPEAKER_03]: Essentially, the British went to the island and did everything possible that you could think of to make the inhabitants afraid of them and white people and just pissed them off. 10:30 [SPEAKER_03]: Rightfully so. 10:32 [SPEAKER_03]: They were literal disease-ridden monsters who kidnapped children in the elderly, and who in their right mind would be welcoming of that. 10:41 [SPEAKER_03]: One of the more recent and illegal attempts that contact was actually in March of this year when a freaking social media influencer made it to the island for a few minutes to film content for his followers. 10:57 [SPEAKER_03]: He did, in fact, make it to the island, but he didn't see anyone, but before he left, he put a can of diet coke and some coconuts on the beach. 11:08 [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, because those people really, they're going to risk you coming there and spreading your diseases and illnesses to them so they can try diet coke for the first time. 11:19 [SPEAKER_03]: Cutting on, too. 11:20 [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, he's lucky, he did not die. 11:23 [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah. 11:24 [SPEAKER_03]: He has gained followers by traveling to dangerous locations and filming himself there. 11:29 [SPEAKER_03]: So for social media content, he put the entire Sentinelese tribe at risk of annihilation by a disease he could have been carrying. 11:38 [SPEAKER_03]: They literally have no immunity to any of our diseases or illnesses. 11:43 [SPEAKER_03]: Even the flu is strong enough to wipe out a large part of their population if not all of 11:50 [SPEAKER_03]: also he could film content. 11:52 [SPEAKER_03]: I hate that. 11:53 [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah. 11:55 [SPEAKER_03]: You're so shush-markful. 11:56 [SPEAKER_03]: The sentinelies aren't the only ones in danger of unwanted contact. 12:00 [SPEAKER_03]: The tribe isn't just using those weapons to threaten, they can and have use them to kill invaders. 12:07 [SPEAKER_03]: In 2006, two fishermen who were illegally fishing in the 12:15 [SPEAKER_03]: In the night, and during that time, their small boat became unankered and they washed ashore to be greeted by the islands and habitats. 12:25 [SPEAKER_03]: Both men were killed and buried on the beach. 12:29 [SPEAKER_03]: Another was in 2018, a Lord had mercy, bless his heart. 12:35 [SPEAKER_03]: When an American evangelical missionary went to the island to convert them to Christianity, he called the island Satan's last stronghold on earth. 12:46 [SPEAKER_03]: At least he was considerate enough, I'm using that lightly, to have gotten vaccinated 12:59 [SPEAKER_03]: He visited the island for the first time on November 15, 2018 when two fishermen dropped him close by. 13:06 [SPEAKER_03]: From their boat he paddled using a small canoe to the island, but he only stayed a few minutes before being chased off by the angry tribe. 13:16 [SPEAKER_03]: But the very next day, driven by his Evangelical Missionary Mission, he returned and received mixed greetings. 13:25 [SPEAKER_03]: Along with his waterproof Bible, he began singing worship songs at them. 13:29 [SPEAKER_03]: I say at them because they didn't understand our language, so they don't know what the hell he's saying. 13:34 [SPEAKER_03]: He's just broken out some gospel songs, and they're like, what the hell's this guy doing? 13:39 [SPEAKER_03]: Go home! 13:41 [SPEAKER_03]: But that didn't last long either, and he was chased off again after an arrow was shot through his Bible as he was holding it to his chest, almost pierced in his chest, but it just got his Bible instead. 13:51 [SPEAKER_03]: Then his final visit was the next day on November 17th. 13:57 [SPEAKER_03]: He again made it back on the island from the fishing boat, and shortly after the fisherman witnessed the sentinelies dragging his dead body to the beach and buried it there in front of them. 14:09 [SPEAKER_03]: There were a couple attempts to retrieve his body, but they were all met with hostility. 14:14 [SPEAKER_03]: Even a murder charge has come of it, but it can't be enforced. 14:20 [SPEAKER_03]: The evangelical missionaries who trained him cast him as a martyr afterwards, but they were publicly condemned by their deadly efforts to push their agenda. 14:32 [SPEAKER_03]: Even the victim's father blames them for brainwashing his son with their extreme Christian 14:39 [SPEAKER_03]: We can relate to that today in America, extreme Christian nationalism. 14:44 [SPEAKER_00]: I've heard of her. 14:46 [SPEAKER_00]: I'm waiting for you to tell me that there was a curvy salesman that showed up on the island. 14:51 [SPEAKER_02]: I'm sure he's still there. 14:52 [SPEAKER_02]: He won't leave. 14:53 [SPEAKER_02]: I got a free bottle of this. 14:55 [SPEAKER_02]: I got all the sand. 14:57 [SPEAKER_02]: Look at the dust. 14:58 [SPEAKER_03]: forgot one of my god. 15:02 [SPEAKER_03]: The inhabitants of North Sentinel Island have made it abundantly clear that they do not want invaders on their island. 15:11 [SPEAKER_03]: Some of the neighboring indigenous tribes have had their populations dwindle to down to 99 percent dead or have become completely extinct because of colonial white devils. 15:26 [SPEAKER_03]: Now who had welcomed that to their doorstep? 15:29 [SPEAKER_03]: I was writing this and I was picturing. 15:32 [SPEAKER_03]: Just imagine, you had a perpetual intruder coming into your house. 15:37 [SPEAKER_03]: And each time they do manage to break inside, either some of your family goes missing, or the rest gets sick from an unknown illness. 15:46 [SPEAKER_03]: Also, they can leave you a can of diet coke and some coconuts and enjoy a little Christian jam session. 15:51 [SPEAKER_03]: Oh, hell, a woman was just killed here in Indiana, just for trying to use keys to open the door of a mistakenly wrong house to get into clean it. 16:01 [SPEAKER_03]: shot dead there a locked door was zero warning given to her on from the occupants of the house. 16:07 [SPEAKER_03]: And she was only trying to use keys for like not even a minute, like 30 seconds. 16:13 [SPEAKER_03]: And she got shot forward. 16:15 [SPEAKER_03]: Now warning was given no nothing, just jingle jingle. 16:19 [SPEAKER_03]: First off, if someone's breaking into your house, they ain't using keys to do it. 16:24 [SPEAKER_03]: That should be your first clue. 16:25 [SPEAKER_03]: Well, currently, there is a hands-off eyes-on policy regarding North Sentinel Island. 16:32 [SPEAKER_03]: Its value as the last uncontacted and pure civilization is worth more to the surrounding powers than any potential benefit from further attempts at contact. 16:45 [SPEAKER_03]: The Indian Navy now also patrols the waters around in the island in an effort to prevent 16:54 [SPEAKER_03]: I like the idea of this island because I enjoy knowing that on our big planet, there is at least one place where indigenous people have been left the hell alone and allowed to continue to live as they wish in their own home. 17:09 [SPEAKER_03]: If only that had been the case, imagine how much more connected to nature our planet would be if they were the ones our ancestors drafted ideas from. 17:18 [SPEAKER_03]: But I'm sure it wouldn't be consumerism. 17:20 [SPEAKER_03]: That's for sure. 17:22 [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, that is North Sentinel Island, the last uncontacted tribe that we are aware about. 17:30 [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, that's a cute little island. 17:31 [SPEAKER_03]: I mean, it's not really big. 17:33 [SPEAKER_03]: It's just a little speck in the sea kind of almost in the middle between India and. 17:38 [SPEAKER_03]: That other one that starts at the M Malaysia, something like that. 17:42 [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, I thought it was, again, there's minimal contact. 17:47 [SPEAKER_03]: So what pictures we do have are like from drones flying over the island. 17:51 [SPEAKER_03]: So you just see the island itself or blurry photos of the actual tribe people from far away boats. 17:59 [SPEAKER_03]: I mean, they are. 18:00 [SPEAKER_03]: rightfully, extremely hostile towards outsiders. 18:05 [SPEAKER_03]: I mean, the first ones they get kidnapped some old people in babies and bring back the two babies. 18:12 [SPEAKER_03]: And you know, they, they probably didn't know what happened to the old people because they don't speak any language about their own. 18:17 [SPEAKER_03]: So they're like, I guess those people are just gone forever now, while they're dead somewhere. 18:24 [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, when the British guy did go to the island the first time they were able to find the empty houses, you know, that sentinelies were hiding from them, but they also found an old man's bones and the like roots of a tree and they just assumed that not like 18:45 [SPEAKER_03]: Some of them thought it might have been a threat or, you know, oh, barbaric, but a lot of people now believe that that might have just been a way that they honor their dad, like he might have been like a chief if they have that type of society or, you know, not a threat more of a 19:02 [SPEAKER_03]: something nice like lifting your mouth or somebody yeah to be one returned one with nature I mean when you live on an island you gotta find something to do with the dead person people die Well it's interesting too that they don't they're not sure how many people live there 19:18 [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, I saw various numbers 50 to 200 or some people assume 500, but you know, you never know a lot of people fit on the island of Manhattan. 19:32 [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, what I found most 19:33 [SPEAKER_03]: Fascinating about it is they've lived there for thousands and thousands of years and the island just looking at it You could not tell that people live on it. 19:43 [SPEAKER_03]: That's how in communion with nature they are. 19:45 [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, I've had that fascinating It is and I think what's it also interesting is that like from their perspective like that's the only life that they know So they don't have any concept of what's happening of you know 19:58 [SPEAKER_03]: I was like a little pissed off of that, you know, sad that he died, but I mean, no one made you go to the island, you just because of that. 20:06 [SPEAKER_00]: It's a risk that you have to be willing to take. 20:08 [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah. 20:11 [SPEAKER_03]: Also, we could get more. 20:12 [SPEAKER_03]: Bring them the heavy herd, the good word. 20:14 [SPEAKER_03]: No, they don't understand, yeah. 20:15 [SPEAKER_00]: Right. 20:16 [SPEAKER_00]: Even. 20:17 [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, like, they've made it abundantly clear. 20:20 [SPEAKER_03]: We don't want you leave us a lot. 20:22 [SPEAKER_03]: Right. 20:23 [SPEAKER_03]: I'm like, I'd start being aggressive too. 20:24 [SPEAKER_03]: If I've multiple times of people to leave us the hell alone and they keep showing up on my doorstep, I'm getting the back. 20:32 [SPEAKER_01]: Ha ha ha. 20:34 [SPEAKER_03]: No means no. 20:37 [SPEAKER_00]: So is he still be heard on the? 20:39 [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, no one's been able to retrieve his body or anything. 20:42 [SPEAKER_03]: Hey, buried him on the beach. 20:43 [SPEAKER_03]: They've, in the past, you know, like, I think in the 1970s, some humanitarian group dropped off several pigs on the island and they killed those instantly and buried them in the sand because they don't know what the hell that is. 20:58 [SPEAKER_03]: And pigs are very disease-ridden, like even here in near us, we have to get our pigs, you know, inject it with antibiotics and other shit because they will spread diseases, and their meat will be tainted, et cetera, et cetera. 21:15 [SPEAKER_03]: I'm like, you're going to leave one of the most disease-ridden animals on this isolated island and pigs are horrible for the ecosystem, like a lot of islands when colonial white devils would come. 21:26 [SPEAKER_03]: They'd bring cats, rats, and freaking pigs, and then all of a sudden all the birds and all the other animals that live on the island are decimated because the cats eat them, 21:42 [SPEAKER_03]: they just screw up the ecosystem. 21:44 [SPEAKER_03]: I'm like that could really messed up their entire way of life by dropping off them damn pigs. 21:49 [SPEAKER_03]: I'm glad they killed the suckers. 21:51 [SPEAKER_03]: They don't know what bacon is, leave them alone. 21:53 [SPEAKER_03]: Right. 21:53 [SPEAKER_03]: Leave them alone. 21:55 [SPEAKER_00]: North Sentinel Island, a place where time has stood still for thousands of years, where people have successfully defended their home against colonial powers, 22:13 [SPEAKER_00]: We like to think we've mapped every inch of this planet, that nothing remains undiscovered. 22:19 [SPEAKER_00]: But here, in the Bay of Bengal, is proof that some places refuse to be known. 22:27 [SPEAKER_00]: The Sentinelese have made their choice clear. 22:30 [SPEAKER_00]: They want to be left alone. 22:32 [SPEAKER_00]: And maybe, just maybe, we should respect that. 22:37 [SPEAKER_00]: After all, in a world that demands connection, there's something almost sacred about a people who've said no, who've drawn a line in the sand, literally, and defended it with their lives. 22:52 [SPEAKER_00]: Some mysteries aren't meant to be solved. 22:55 [SPEAKER_00]: They're meant to be left alone. 23:00 [SPEAKER_03]: I am. 23:01 [SPEAKER_03]: It's good. 23:02 [SPEAKER_03]: The weekend before Thanksgiving. 23:04 [SPEAKER_03]: My work week coming up is just three days and I got a four day weekend and I'm so excited. 23:10 [SPEAKER_03]: I've got everything I need for Thanksgiving dinner already bought and usually the week of Thanksgiving. 23:17 [SPEAKER_03]: I like this weekend is the last like 23:21 [SPEAKER_03]: Unless it's a dire desperate need, I won't be going into stores until after the news. 23:27 [SPEAKER_03]: Oh yeah, because now it's officially holiday shop and season where people are even more rude and inconsiderate and I just don't have the patience for it. 23:37 [SPEAKER_03]: I'll get out my lipstick knife and stab their cartwheel. 23:39 [SPEAKER_00]: and more having things giving up my house and hopefully my two thoughts get a long go with all of our family and our aunt and our cousins join in our pieces excited we're going to have some good food we're going to find 23:56 [SPEAKER_03]: It's gonna make an turkey dressing, I'm making cranberry salad with the pineapple and the pecans. 24:04 [SPEAKER_00]: I don't like cranberry salad. 24:05 [SPEAKER_00]: At least I didn't the last time I had it, maybe I'd do it. 24:08 [SPEAKER_03]: I do the whole Bayer cranberry sauce and then I do crushed pineapple, pecans, pecans and cool whip. 24:15 [SPEAKER_03]: Some people add marshmallows to it. 24:16 [SPEAKER_03]: I feel like that's great. 24:18 [SPEAKER_03]: No, I don't put marshmallows. 24:19 [SPEAKER_00]: I'll try it. 24:20 [SPEAKER_00]: I tried to try some stuff like that every once in a while. 24:25 [SPEAKER_03]: It's just something new. 24:26 [SPEAKER_03]: Grandma was just, we always did just the Cam, Cranberry, and I love that, like it goes good with the turkey, but you know, when she died, it really made me depressed to cook stuff. 24:39 [SPEAKER_03]: Now I've, you know, I've, I've grieved enough to where it doesn't, but I'm like, you know, I don't have to make everything exactly the way she did it. 24:47 [SPEAKER_03]: I can make things fancy as she was 24:53 [SPEAKER_03]: We are having butterfinger pie, cherry pie, apple crisp, and I'm making, I'm making you a pumpkin pie, but this year I'm making mini pumpkin pie. 25:03 [SPEAKER_03]: It's so cool. 25:03 [SPEAKER_03]: Because I figured I like a good ratio of crust to pie. 25:08 [SPEAKER_03]: So that way, it's kind of like when I make brownies, I make them in a muffin pan so that everybody's a metal and a crust. 25:13 [SPEAKER_03]: Yes. 25:14 [SPEAKER_03]: And so these, you know, just be a good balance of crust and fill in. 25:18 [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah. 25:19 [SPEAKER_03]: And just cuter. 25:19 [SPEAKER_03]: I like it. 25:21 [SPEAKER_03]: I feel like many pies, you can eat more of them when they're like, oh, I just just had a couple of little pies. 25:27 [SPEAKER_03]: Whereas if the eat half a pumpkin pie, you feel like might feel a little gray, you know, try to say so. 25:35 [SPEAKER_03]: and easier for people to take home. 25:38 [SPEAKER_03]: I got as a 25 pound turkey. 25:40 [SPEAKER_03]: I got the biggest damn on the hand left. 25:42 [SPEAKER_03]: Where'd you go? 25:43 [SPEAKER_03]: A Walmart. 25:44 [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah. 25:45 [SPEAKER_03]: I was afraid croaker wouldn't have a big enough selection. 25:48 [SPEAKER_03]: Well, it was just the other day too. 25:50 [SPEAKER_03]: So, you know, I was worried all they would have would be small turkeys. 25:55 [SPEAKER_03]: But now they had a lot of big ones. 25:57 [SPEAKER_03]: I guess people are intimidated by making a big turkey. 26:00 [SPEAKER_03]: Oh, about it. 26:00 [SPEAKER_03]: But you know, it's never done it. 26:02 [SPEAKER_03]: I can imagine. 26:03 [SPEAKER_03]: I'm an old pro with this. 26:05 [SPEAKER_03]: I'm an old whore, washed up whore. 26:07 [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, it made it clean. 26:10 [SPEAKER_03]: It's a, it's easy to mess up. 26:13 [SPEAKER_03]: You can under cook it, most people over cook it and then you get the turkey. 26:18 [SPEAKER_03]: You got to take a drink of water for every bite you do. 26:20 [SPEAKER_03]: But I do a dry brine with salt and in the fridge for a day or two and it's moisturizes and tendrises the meat so you don't get dry turkey breast and then I put it in a roaster. 26:32 [SPEAKER_00]: Do you remember that one year that our aunt decided that she was going to pour coke on the turkey? 26:40 [SPEAKER_00]: and it turned to a mush. 26:42 [SPEAKER_03]: A congealed. 26:43 [SPEAKER_03]: Yes. 26:44 [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah. 26:44 [SPEAKER_03]: She was in her head. 26:46 [SPEAKER_03]: She's not a cook. 26:48 [SPEAKER_00]: She does say the least. 26:49 [SPEAKER_03]: She had seen people do that, which you can poor Coke on ham. 26:52 [SPEAKER_03]: Yes. 26:53 [SPEAKER_03]: I've grandma did that before. 26:54 [SPEAKER_03]: Brown Sugar Coke and pineapple juice. 26:57 [SPEAKER_03]: You can put it on a ham. 26:58 [SPEAKER_03]: It's fine for a ham. 26:59 [SPEAKER_03]: A ham is a lot thicker than some meat. 27:02 [SPEAKER_03]: Don't put it on no poultry. 27:03 [SPEAKER_03]: No soda goes on poultry. 27:05 [SPEAKER_03]: I've seen people do mountain do. 27:09 [SPEAKER_03]: disgusting. 27:11 [SPEAKER_03]: And that's why I make Thanksgiving dinner and Christmas dinner because people be trying things. 27:17 [SPEAKER_03]: And you don't try new things on this given. 27:20 [SPEAKER_03]: I did last year with the cranberry salad for the first time, but I was confident in my skills that it would turn out good. 27:27 [SPEAKER_03]: And I know I'm one of the only me and I think our mom eats cranberry sauce. 27:32 [SPEAKER_03]: So I was like, 27:34 [SPEAKER_03]: It's not a mean dish. 27:36 [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, it's just a, it's never once it's a dish and I mainly make it for myself. 27:41 [SPEAKER_03]: So I was like, I know I'll like it, so I'll do it. 27:43 [SPEAKER_03]: But no, this isn't, the holidays are all the time. 27:46 [SPEAKER_03]: No, no. 27:48 [SPEAKER_03]: If someone asks you, hey, bring your macaroni and cheese. 27:51 [SPEAKER_03]: That means bring the same thing you've brought previously. 27:54 [SPEAKER_03]: Don't be trying no new recipe. 27:56 [SPEAKER_00]: Don't put no bacon and no additives. 27:58 [SPEAKER_00]: No nothing. 27:59 [SPEAKER_03]: I saw one, it was a friend's giving, and this gay guy was in charge of the macaroni and cheese, and the recipe had called for something called liquid gold, which I believe is Velvita. 28:11 [SPEAKER_03]: Velvita cheese. 28:13 [SPEAKER_03]: It was just like an old-time recipe, and that's what they used to call it in the South apparently. 28:18 [SPEAKER_03]: He didn't know what that meant. 28:20 [SPEAKER_03]: So he googled liquid gold and it's a liquid vitamin supplement. 28:25 [SPEAKER_03]: That's like different vitamins and greens and stuff mixed and we called for just a small amount. 28:30 [SPEAKER_03]: He put the whole bottle in there and turned that macaroni and cheese green. 28:34 [SPEAKER_00]: it looked like vomit with cheese on top of it now I would have kicked him out at one point out of the house at one point would he have I I'm not a cook but I would have questioned why I would be putting vitamins 28:49 [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, no, it's on the recipe. 28:51 [SPEAKER_03]: Oh, you just put this bottom in it. 28:53 [SPEAKER_03]: Oh, my god. 28:54 [SPEAKER_03]: Cooking ain't that hard. 28:56 [SPEAKER_03]: I mean, I've been, I started at six. 28:58 [SPEAKER_03]: So I've got a little bit of a, you know, an edge. 29:01 [SPEAKER_03]: Right. 29:02 [SPEAKER_03]: But I feel like it's a lot of common sense. 29:04 [SPEAKER_03]: This goes with this ingredient. 29:06 [SPEAKER_03]: You know, these will be good together. 29:08 [SPEAKER_00]: One year at our friends giving one of my friends had never made a cheesecake before and she decided she's gonna make a lemon cheesecake. 29:16 [SPEAKER_00]: She brought it and there's just wonderful smell of lemon in the air as I walked into our friend's house. 29:22 [SPEAKER_00]: She's non-edible lemon oil. 29:24 [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, it was at a central lemon oil. 29:27 [SPEAKER_00]: Oh my god. 29:28 [SPEAKER_00]: And as soon as I bit into it, I could tell. 29:31 [SPEAKER_03]: This ain't to be eaten. 29:32 [SPEAKER_00]: It was like that's rubbery on you. 29:36 [SPEAKER_00]: And the sudden lemon, like immediately hit your senses. 29:41 [SPEAKER_00]: Like in your nose, everything smells like lemon, but it don't taste like lemon. 29:45 [SPEAKER_00]: No. 29:46 [SPEAKER_00]: And it was it's unadabble. 29:48 [SPEAKER_00]: Like as soon as it like touch your lips, it's like you sniffed lemon and it burns everything. 29:55 [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah. 29:55 [SPEAKER_00]: And it's just supposed to eat it. 29:57 [SPEAKER_00]: You can eat it. 29:57 [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, no. 29:58 [SPEAKER_00]: And so I was the first person who had tried it. 30:01 [SPEAKER_00]: And so I'm like, I was like, okay, I should warn everyone because this is bad bad bad bad, but then I was like, but you know, I don't want to be the only one who tried it. 30:16 [SPEAKER_00]: You know, someone else has to experience it. 30:18 [SPEAKER_00]: I don't want to be the one. 30:20 [SPEAKER_00]: So I waited for my friend, Andy. 30:23 [SPEAKER_00]: Oh yeah, he lost his dessert. 30:24 [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, so I saw him at the end of the table. 30:27 [SPEAKER_00]: He like, took a bite of a suit as like, and I can't even describe this, too, but as soon as I take a bite of your lip, if it touches your lip, it's like you snorted it. 30:38 [SPEAKER_00]: He touched his lip and he like, he glanced right at me. 30:42 [SPEAKER_03]: That ain't right. 30:43 [SPEAKER_00]: And I like start laughing. 30:46 [SPEAKER_00]: And I was like something sharp that cheesecake and then our friend looked at us and was like well see I made two and I know that the first one wasn't right So I assume that this one didn't turn out right either. 31:04 [SPEAKER_00]: I thought too. 31:05 [SPEAKER_00]: And I was like gosh dang it. 31:07 [SPEAKER_00]: Why did you just not bring it? 31:09 [SPEAKER_00]: Oh my god. 31:10 [SPEAKER_00]: She's like, don't eat it because it's bad and I was like, well, I mean, it's you can't watch it. 31:15 [SPEAKER_03]: No, that's where the grandma foster and as soon as I took a bite, I'd spit it out and made a scene like, who the hell brought this lemon shit? 31:21 [SPEAKER_03]: You trying to kill me? 31:22 [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, she said that she used, she did two things wrong. 31:25 [SPEAKER_00]: One of them was she overcooked. 31:29 [SPEAKER_00]: the cheese, like way overcooked it. 31:32 [SPEAKER_00]: She cut it for way too long. 31:34 [SPEAKER_00]: And two, I'll make it rub her. 31:36 [SPEAKER_00]: She, yeah, it was very rubbery. 31:38 [SPEAKER_00]: And two, she used like an edible central oil that she just used. 31:44 [SPEAKER_03]: Those are needed in the same aisle. 31:46 [SPEAKER_03]: The groceries on one side of the place and those are by the candles. 31:49 [SPEAKER_00]: This is a stuff that she had in the house because she like uses it to like 31:59 [SPEAKER_03]: Just use lemons. 32:01 [SPEAKER_03]: Go buy lemons or the big green bottle of lemon juice in a case you don't know. 32:06 [SPEAKER_00]: She like used extra of what it called for too. 32:10 [SPEAKER_00]: So I mean, when I tell you that as soon as it touches your like just a barely touching version burned your mouth for most cheese cakes take a little bit of lemon juice. 32:20 [SPEAKER_03]: It just compliments the cream cheese and that's that little bit of tang to it, but it was. 32:26 [SPEAKER_03]: It was bad. 32:27 [SPEAKER_03]: No, that's why I don't eat a lot of other people's cooking because I don't trust them. 32:31 [SPEAKER_03]: I mean, it was the first time. 32:32 [SPEAKER_03]: You'd like to say she doesn't bring cheese cake. 32:35 [SPEAKER_03]: I ain't getting food poisoning because someone wanted to be Betty Crocker. 32:38 [SPEAKER_03]: No. 32:39 [SPEAKER_03]: All right, guys. 32:40
