Episode Transcript

[0:00:03 – 0:00:04] Erik: Mulder?
[0:00:04 – 0:00:05] Adam: Look, it’s done.
[0:00:05 – 0:00:06] Adam: I shouldn’t have let him go.
[0:00:06 – 0:00:08] Adam: We’ll just move past it, okay?
[0:00:08 – 0:00:09] Erik: Fine.
[0:00:09 – 0:00:10] Adam: What do you suggest?
[0:00:11 – 0:00:12] Adam: I don’t know.
[0:00:12 – 0:00:13] Adam: We’ll think of something.
[0:00:13 – 0:00:19] Erik: Look, I think we both have a pretty good idea of what happened to those loggers and what happened to the group in 1934.
[0:00:20 – 0:00:21] Adam: We only found one cocoon.
[0:00:22 – 0:00:23] Adam: It’s a big forest.
[0:00:23 – 0:00:24] Adam: Look, Scully, what would you have done?
[0:00:25 – 0:00:31] Erik: You know, you mean, would I have made a decision by myself that would have affected the whole group?
[0:00:31 – 0:00:33] Erik: Oh, well, you cut the sanctimonious crap.
[0:00:34 – 0:00:36] Erik: Well, what do you want me to say?
[0:00:36 – 0:00:37] Erik: Let’s face it, Mulder.
[0:00:37 – 0:00:38] Erik: We might die up here.
[0:00:39 – 0:00:43] Erik: If we’re lucky, they’ll find our bodies spun up in a tree, or they might not find us at all.
[0:00:44 – 0:00:44] Adam: You’re right.
[0:00:44 – 0:00:46] Adam: We’re wasting time arguing about it.
[0:00:47 – 0:00:47] Erik: What are you going to do?
[0:00:48 – 0:00:50] Adam: button this place up if we’re going to spend the night in here.
[0:00:50 – 0:00:54] Adam: We’ve got to make sure everything we can do to make sure the bugs stay out of here.
[0:00:54 – 0:00:55] Erik: I can see them.
[0:00:55 – 0:00:57] Erik: You guys, look at this.
[0:00:57 – 0:00:58] Erik: They’re coming through the wall.
[0:00:59 – 0:01:00] Erik: Downward dark.
[0:01:00 – 0:01:00] Erik: You see them?
[0:01:00 – 0:01:01] Erik: They’re on me.
[0:01:01 – 0:01:02] Erik: It’s all right.
[0:01:02 – 0:01:02] Adam: Scully.
[0:01:02 – 0:01:03] Adam: Scully.
[0:01:03 – 0:01:04] Adam: Get them off me.
[0:01:04 – 0:01:05] Adam: Stop moving.
[0:01:05 – 0:01:05] Adam: Just stop.
[0:01:05 – 0:01:06] Adam: Stand.
[0:01:06 – 0:01:07] Erik: Sorry.
[0:01:07 – 0:01:08] Erik: Stand still.
[0:01:08 – 0:01:08] Erik: Stand still.
[0:01:09 – 0:01:09] Erik: Can you see them?
[0:01:10 – 0:01:11] Erik: Mulder, get them off me.
[0:01:11 – 0:01:12] Adam: They’re not just on you.
[0:01:12 – 0:01:13] Adam: They’re everywhere.
[0:01:13 – 0:01:15] Adam: I think that’s what the greasy residue is over everything.
[0:01:16 – 0:01:17] Adam: I thought we were supposed to be safe in the light.
[0:01:18 – 0:01:18] Adam: We are.
[0:01:19 – 0:01:20] Adam: I think the light keeps them from swarming.
[0:01:20 – 0:01:22] Adam: We’ll be safe as long as we stay in the light.
[0:01:23 – 0:01:24] Adam: How are you doing?
[0:01:25 – 0:01:26] Adam: I’m okay.
[0:01:27 – 0:01:28] Erik: They’re oxidizing enzymes.
[0:01:29 – 0:01:30] Erik: They’re just like fireflies.
[0:01:31 – 0:01:33] Erik: Maybe that’s why they cocoon their prey.
[0:01:34 – 0:01:37] Erik: So they can oxidize the proteins taken from the fluids in the body.
[0:01:38 – 0:01:40] Erik: But what if the generator goes?
[0:01:41 – 0:01:43] Erik: And they all go in the swarm.
[0:01:44 – 0:01:44] Erik: And in here.
[0:01:44 – 0:01:46] Erik: And drain a life out of us.
[0:01:47 – 0:01:48] Adam: We got an hour and a half till sunrise.
[0:01:49 – 0:01:50] Erik: Yeah, and then what?
[0:01:51 – 0:01:52] Erik: It’s over a day’s hike out of here.
[0:01:53 – 0:01:54] Erik: We won’t make it on foot by nightfall.
[0:01:55 – 0:01:57] Adam: Maybe somebody heard our radio transmission.
[0:01:58 – 0:01:59] Adam: Help could be on the way.
[0:02:00 – 0:02:01] Erik: You sent that call hours ago.
[0:02:02 – 0:02:03] Erik: I mean, help would have been here by now.
[0:02:04 – 0:02:06] Adam: Well, I’m not going to give up on Spinny.
[0:02:07 – 0:02:09] Adam: He gave me his word he’d come back to get us.
[0:02:10 – 0:02:11] Adam: And if he doesn’t?
[0:02:12 – 0:02:13] Adam: Well, think of something.
[0:03:14 – 0:03:18] Adam: Welcome to Tumble Home, a Boundary Waters podcast.
[0:03:19 – 0:03:23] Adam: This is episode 270 of Tumble Home.
[0:03:23 – 0:03:23] Adam: My name is Adam.
[0:03:23 – 0:03:27] Adam: Joining me here in the Tumble Shed is my dear friend, Eric.
[0:03:27 – 0:03:28] Adam: Hello, Eric.
[0:03:29 – 0:03:29] Adam: Hello, Eric.
[0:03:32 – 0:03:36] Adam: Can’t believe it’s been 240 episodes since the last X-Files cold open.
[0:03:36 – 0:03:37] Adam: I know.
[0:03:37 – 0:03:38] Adam: It’s a real treat.
[0:03:39 – 0:03:41] Erik: We had big plans back in those days.
[0:03:42 – 0:03:46] Erik: We’ll be cold opening with X-Files scripts from here on out, is what we said.
[0:03:47 – 0:03:47] Erik: That’s right.
[0:03:47 – 0:03:48] Adam: And we did.
[0:03:49 – 0:03:49] Adam: We kept our promise.
[0:03:50 – 0:03:51] Erik: Kept our promise to ourselves.
[0:03:52 – 0:03:56] Adam: And yeah, I’m surprised that we’re willing to do something that weird in episode 33.
[0:03:56 – 0:03:56] Adam: Yeah.
[0:03:57 – 0:03:57] Erik: Yeah.
[0:03:58 – 0:04:00] Erik: Or maybe we’ve gotten less weird.
[0:04:00 – 0:04:00] Erik: I don’t know.
[0:04:00 – 0:04:05] Erik: I think we’ve maintained an adequate level of weirdness.
[0:04:06 – 0:04:07] Adam: I believe so.
[0:04:07 – 0:04:09] Adam: Yeah.
[0:04:09 – 0:04:13] Adam: I had a weird little experiment in the kitchen.
[0:04:13 – 0:04:18] Adam: There’s a thread going on the subreddit right now, and they’re talking about simple camp meals.
[0:04:18 – 0:04:27] Adam: And, of course, anybody listening this far into Tumble Home knows our love of the pizza biter, which may or may not be actually called pizza rolls in other parts of the country.
[0:04:27 – 0:04:32] Adam: But my brother was just up here last week, and we had a lot of fun.
[0:04:32 – 0:04:39] Adam: I talked about it already, but we actually did go through with it and made our own smorgasbord of homemade biters.
[0:04:39 – 0:04:54] Erik: Yeah, you teased me with a text image of just the pre-rolled, uncooked, not being enjoyed biters, and my interest was highly piqued, and then I never got another subsequent… No update.
[0:04:54 – 0:04:55] Adam: No update.
[0:04:55 – 0:04:57] Adam: I’m saving it and giving it to you right now.
[0:04:57 – 0:04:57] Adam: Live.
[0:04:58 – 0:05:04] Adam: Uh, yeah, we like one of the first nights he was up here, I was super tired out and it’s like, I don’t know if I got it in me.
[0:05:04 – 0:05:05] Adam: We just got to get it done.
[0:05:05 – 0:05:06] Adam: He says, let’s just do it.
[0:05:06 – 0:05:10] Adam: So we rolled up like 75, it was probably like 74 biters.
[0:05:10 – 0:05:10] Adam: Jesus.
[0:05:11 – 0:05:15] Adam: He brought it up three packs of egg roll, uh, wraps from the big city.
[0:05:16 – 0:05:17] Adam: And, uh, we just went to town.
[0:05:17 – 0:05:21] Adam: We first made up all the different fillings and then we just like went to town rolling them.
[0:05:22 – 0:05:29] Adam: And actually, I’d forgotten back when I worked at Trail Center, Josh and I were in charge of the egg rolls for this special egg roll night.
[0:05:30 – 0:05:30] Erik: Oh, yes.
[0:05:30 – 0:05:31] Erik: Oriental night?
[0:05:32 – 0:05:36] Adam: And once we got going, it was like I never quit rolling those egg rolls.
[0:05:36 – 0:05:46] Adam: So I was trying to keep them, especially as we got through them, I started trying to make them shorter and fatter, if that makes any sense, to make them more biter-esque.
[0:05:46 – 0:05:46] Adam: Yeah.
[0:05:47 – 0:05:48] Adam: Yeah, we never did fry them up.
[0:05:48 – 0:05:54] Adam: We just baked them, and that turned out pretty well, and we had special dipping sauces for all of them.
[0:05:55 – 0:05:56] Adam: I think they turn really nice.
[0:05:56 – 0:05:57] Adam: It’s definitely not an authentic biter.
[0:05:57 – 0:06:00] Adam: There’s too many wholesome ingredients in the ones we made.
[0:06:01 – 0:06:03] Erik: Yeah, I mean, there’s a certain difference.
[0:06:03 – 0:06:13] Erik: There’s definitely a difference between rolling something up like that and what is the sweet, heavenly, golden brown pillow of oily goodness that is the biter.
[0:06:13 – 0:06:16] Erik: You would almost need some kind of like a press.
[0:06:17 – 0:06:20] Adam: You’d need like a little mini Coghlan’s camp cooker the size of a biter.
[0:06:20 – 0:06:22] Adam: Does anybody make something like that?
[0:06:22 – 0:06:24] Erik: A biter pillow press?
[0:06:24 – 0:06:26] Erik: A teensy camp cooker.
[0:06:26 – 0:06:27] Erik: Teensy camp, yes.
[0:06:27 – 0:06:29] Adam: And then you just seal them.
[0:06:30 – 0:06:51] Erik: I mean, considering the size of what an individual, calling it by its real name, pudgy pie maker, if we want to go there and call it that, easily you could just have little partitions in that so that on each one of those you are creating four little biters.
[0:06:51 – 0:06:52] Adam: There we go.
[0:06:52 – 0:07:04] Erik: I mean, this would take an intern down at the Nina factory to craft and form a cast iron mold to make this possible.
[0:07:04 – 0:07:10] Adam: I don’t think anybody has the- Do you inject the whole biter into there through a tube then?
[0:07:10 – 0:07:13] Adam: Or you’d have to throw them in there and then seal it, I guess.
[0:07:13 – 0:07:17] Erik: Yeah, I also don’t know if you could do four at a time.
[0:07:17 – 0:07:19] Erik: I think it’d be a delicate-
[0:07:19 – 0:07:21] Erik: These biters, they are a delicate balance.
[0:07:21 – 0:07:22] Adam: They are.
[0:07:22 – 0:07:25] Adam: Yeah, I only ripped a couple of the egg roll wrappers and was able to mend them.
[0:07:25 – 0:07:37] Erik: I feel like if you tried doing it all in one press like that with like four little biters in one press, you would end up with inevitable overflow and a bunch of filling everywhere.
[0:07:37 – 0:07:41] Adam: You’d be having to spend more time cleaning the press machine than actually pressing the biters.
[0:07:41 – 0:07:42] Adam: Yeah, exactly.
[0:07:42 – 0:07:44] Adam: It would be very funny, though.
[0:07:44 – 0:07:47] Adam: Nobody can argue against that one little biter at a time press machine.
[0:07:47 – 0:07:49] Adam: Just one biter at a time would be hilarious.
[0:07:49 – 0:07:56] Adam: It would be funny if it was mounted on a workbench and they had the big overhead handle to really put the leverage on them.
[0:07:57 – 0:07:57] Adam: Oh, yeah.
[0:07:57 – 0:07:58] Adam: Put the squeeze on that biter.
[0:07:58 – 0:08:10] Erik: I do love the picture of just a man with one tiny little pudgy pie hunched over a crackling little fire, roasting up one biter at a time.
[0:08:11 – 0:08:13] Erik: His hungry family is looking on.
[0:08:13 – 0:08:14] Erik: Please, Dad.
[0:08:14 – 0:08:15] Erik: Hurry up.
[0:08:15 – 0:08:16] Erik: What is happening?
[0:08:16 – 0:08:18] Adam: Can we just throw them right on the grate?
[0:08:18 – 0:08:18] Adam: No.
[0:08:19 – 0:08:19] Adam: Absolutely not.
[0:08:21 – 0:08:22] Adam: No son of mine is going to cook them right on the grate.
[0:08:24 – 0:08:27] Adam: So we did do just traditional pepperoni pizza biters.
[0:08:28 – 0:08:28] Adam: Classic.
[0:08:28 – 0:08:29] Adam: Which were awesome.
[0:08:29 – 0:08:34] Adam: And then we did have homemade pizza sauce from the garden from last year in the pantry.
[0:08:34 – 0:08:35] Adam: So we used that.
[0:08:35 – 0:08:36] Erik: From the pizza plant?
[0:08:36 – 0:08:37] Adam: From the pizza plants.
[0:08:38 – 0:08:39] Adam: And a really good crop.
[0:08:40 – 0:08:42] Adam: And then we did Reuben biters.
[0:08:42 – 0:08:43] Adam: Mamma mia.
[0:08:45 – 0:08:46] Adam: Ragu.
[0:08:48 – 0:08:49] Adam: Better than Ragu.
[0:08:49 – 0:08:50] Adam: Just by a little.
[0:08:51 – 0:08:53] Adam: We did Reuben biters.
[0:08:53 – 0:08:59] Adam: We had some really good, I didn’t make it, but homemade kraut in the fridge that we used.
[0:09:00 – 0:09:03] Adam: And did get some Thousand Island dressing to dip those in.
[0:09:03 – 0:09:05] Adam: We did not put that right in there.
[0:09:05 – 0:09:10] Adam: And then Brother Andrew had made the FaZe Clan homemade version as a test batch earlier.
[0:09:11 – 0:09:13] Adam: And he said they were too big of a mess.
[0:09:14 – 0:09:18] Adam: But he had put the blue cheese and blue cheese dressing right in there.
[0:09:18 – 0:09:18] Adam: Yeah.
[0:09:18 – 0:09:24] Adam: So we just did like shredded chicken, cream cheese, and like hot sauce is the mix.
[0:09:24 – 0:09:27] Adam: And then we just did like a blue cheese dressing as a dipping sauce for that one.
[0:09:27 – 0:09:28] Adam: And those are really good.
[0:09:28 – 0:09:29] Adam: I was going to say, that sounds like the way.
[0:09:29 – 0:09:30] Adam: That was my favorite.
[0:09:30 – 0:09:31] Adam: Sounds like the way.
[0:09:31 – 0:09:32] Adam: Face clam for life.
[0:09:32 – 0:09:33] Adam: What can I say?
[0:09:33 – 0:09:34] Erik: Hashtag for life.
[0:09:35 – 0:09:36] Adam: Hashtag for life.
[0:09:36 – 0:09:39] Adam: So yeah, the homemade biters went off great.
[0:09:39 – 0:09:40] Adam: Brother was up.
[0:09:41 – 0:09:41] Adam: Parents were up.
[0:09:41 – 0:09:42] Adam: It was a really good time.
[0:09:43 – 0:09:45] Adam: And we must have had pretty good weather for their visit.
[0:09:46 – 0:09:47] Adam: Sweet.
[0:09:47 – 0:09:49] Erik: Enjoyed that.
[0:09:49 – 0:10:00] Erik: Speaking of food, as you crack into our sponsor for the week, I do have a message to relay to you from the place of your work.
[0:10:01 – 0:10:03] Erik: You are based on…
[0:10:05 – 0:10:15] Erik: Based on the comments that you have made on your favorite soup to eat and make, you are first up on the soup calendar for Mulligatawny.
[0:10:15 – 0:10:19] Erik: I’m back on the Mulligatawny schedule on Wednesdays?
[0:10:19 – 0:10:20] Adam: Mulligatawny Wednesdays.
[0:10:21 – 0:10:21] Adam: I’d love to see it.
[0:10:22 – 0:10:23] Adam: Oh, that’s good to see.
[0:10:23 – 0:10:25] Adam: Yeah, I got a message from Adrian.
[0:10:25 – 0:10:27] Adam: He’s like, well, when do you want me?
[0:10:27 – 0:10:28] Adam: What do you like?
[0:10:28 – 0:10:31] Adam: when do you want to put me back on the schedule, basically.
[0:10:31 – 0:10:34] Adam: He said, I’m still planning on coming back middle of November.
[0:10:34 – 0:10:35] Adam: I’ll be there.
[0:10:36 – 0:10:40] Adam: And he didn’t say anything about the soup schedule, though, but I’m happy to make malagatani.
[0:10:40 – 0:10:40] Erik: Yeah.
[0:10:41 – 0:10:42] Erik: He just wants you to know.
[0:10:42 – 0:10:43] Adam: Thank you.
[0:10:43 – 0:10:43] Adam: Well, I’m glad to know.
[0:10:43 – 0:10:45] Adam: I can prepare myself mentally.
[0:10:45 – 0:10:48] Adam: That’s a pretty challenging recipe to be thrown right back into it.
[0:10:48 – 0:10:50] Adam: I was hoping to just work on ham sandwiches for a week.
[0:10:51 – 0:10:52] Adam: Get settled back in.
[0:10:52 – 0:10:54] Adam: Maybe inspect the solar panels on the roof.
[0:10:55 – 0:10:56] Erik: Make sure the refrigeration is running properly.
[0:10:56 – 0:10:59] Adam: ease it back in, but no, I’m going right to Malagatani.
[0:10:59 – 0:11:00] Adam: So pressure’s on.
[0:11:01 – 0:11:04] Adam: I feel like I’ve been pretty sharp lately, so I think I can handle it.
[0:11:04 – 0:11:07] Erik: It’s like coming in the bottom of the ninth, base is loaded, closer.
[0:11:08 – 0:11:09] Adam: That’s why I get paid the big bucks, Eric.
[0:11:09 – 0:11:10] Adam: Yeah.
[0:11:11 – 0:11:18] Adam: Yeah, I can’t say I’m really terribly missing work, but I don’t know.
[0:11:18 – 0:11:19] Adam: Part of me is, I guess.
[0:11:21 – 0:11:25] Adam: I’m ready to get back to getting out of the house, and also I’m ready to be making money again.
[0:11:26 – 0:11:26] Erik: Sure, yeah.
[0:11:27 – 0:11:28] Adam: Gotta make that money in this country.
[0:11:28 – 0:11:31] Erik: Yeah, the idea of work, you know, it’s… Yeah.
[0:11:32 – 0:11:32] Adam: Yeah.
[0:11:32 – 0:11:34] Erik: It’s a fickle one, you know.
[0:11:34 – 0:11:38] Erik: It’s like, yeah, I don’t want to work, but then you get a few weeks off and you’re, you know.
[0:11:39 – 0:11:41] Erik: Some mild purpose is always nice.
[0:11:42 – 0:11:45] Erik: Too much of anything is never a good thing.
[0:11:45 – 0:11:47] Adam: Yeah, it’s going to be weird going back for sure.
[0:11:48 – 0:11:54] Adam: I feel like on one hand that I’ve been gone from work for a long time, but then also it really hasn’t been all that long.
[0:11:55 – 0:11:59] Adam: But, you know, America.
[0:11:59 – 0:12:18] Adam: yeah and uh a couple years we’ll have five months of paid uh leave for both parents um paid by the state and you know i’m happy for anybody i can take advantage of that it won’t be us but i was happy for the amount of time i was able to spend home with the new baby not working and uh i didn’t really miss work i’m really enjoying this but um
[0:12:20 – 0:12:22] Adam: Yeah, you know, somebody’s got to make that mulgatani.
[0:12:23 – 0:12:24] Adam: Yeah, it hasn’t been the same.
[0:12:24 – 0:12:25] Adam: It’s love.
[0:12:25 – 0:12:27] Adam: It still is if I remember the recipe.
[0:12:28 – 0:12:37] Adam: This week’s art supply sponsors for episode 270 are to Adam and Eric from Amateur Camper, friend of the show.
[0:12:37 – 0:12:44] Adam: And it says refrigerate, which they have been refrigerated in just a brown bag here since August 24th.
[0:12:44 – 0:12:45] Adam: Not bad.
[0:12:47 – 0:12:48] Adam: We’re getting there.
[0:12:48 – 0:12:49] Adam: We’re getting to the end of August with these.
[0:12:50 – 0:12:52] Adam: We still have a pretty impressive list up there.
[0:12:53 – 0:12:54] Adam: Thank you, Amateur Camper.
[0:12:54 – 0:12:55] Adam: What do we got here?
[0:12:56 – 0:13:01] Adam: We got a Duluth cider, Gitch semi-sweet cider, two-pack.
[0:13:03 – 0:13:09] Adam: And we got a couple Wild State THC cocktails.
[0:13:09 – 0:13:11] Adam: We got a Moscow Mule here.
[0:13:11 – 0:13:13] Adam: Sounds tasty.
[0:13:13 – 0:13:15] Adam: And we got the Honey Lemonade.
[0:13:16 – 0:13:17] Adam: I’ve had both of these.
[0:13:17 – 0:13:17] Adam: Nice.
[0:13:18 – 0:13:19] Adam: These are co-op specials.
[0:13:21 – 0:13:24] Adam: And I don’t know if you’ve had either, but I’ll let you have first pick out of this litter.
[0:13:25 – 0:13:25] Adam: What are you thinking?
[0:13:26 – 0:13:27] Adam: Start with a cider?
[0:13:27 – 0:13:27] Adam: Sure.
[0:13:27 – 0:13:28] Adam: Mind the onset.
[0:13:28 – 0:13:29] Adam: Start with a cider.
[0:13:29 – 0:13:31] Adam: Still daylight out there.
[0:13:31 – 0:13:32] Erik: Don’t want to get too onsetted.
[0:13:34 – 0:13:39] Adam: Yeah, I mean, they’ve been in the fridge, but there’s been a couple nights where I got below freezing.
[0:13:41 – 0:13:42] Adam: Got to watch those.
[0:13:44 – 0:13:44] Adam: Good old cider.
[0:13:45 – 0:13:55] Adam: I have some apple pear cider fermenting on the counter too, which I was hoping would be done and bottled for brother’s visit, but it was still bubbling away and I couldn’t jump the gun on it.
[0:13:55 – 0:13:57] Erik: Oh, you got to let it bubble.
[0:13:57 – 0:14:00] Adam: I did grab a couple old Grolsch bottles out of the crawl space.
[0:14:00 – 0:14:02] Adam: I’m prepared to bottle at any point here.
[0:14:02 – 0:14:06] Erik: The best multi-purpose deal in the business.
[0:14:06 – 0:14:07] Adam: They are great little bottles.
[0:14:07 – 0:14:08] Adam: Yeah.
[0:14:08 – 0:14:11] Adam: Thank you, Amateur Camper, for the Duluth Ciders.
[0:14:12 – 0:14:13] Adam: Delicious.
[0:14:14 – 0:14:15] Adam: I really enjoy these.
[0:14:15 – 0:14:16] Adam: I haven’t had one of these in a while.
[0:14:17 – 0:14:17] Adam: It’s good stuff.
[0:14:18 – 0:14:23] Erik: Yeah, it’s finally feeling somewhat seasonal in terms of temperatures out there.
[0:14:23 – 0:14:28] Erik: Besides, well, literally today has been the first day.
[0:14:28 – 0:14:30] Erik: There’s been some blips of like, huh, is this fall again?
[0:14:31 – 0:14:31] SPEAKER_00: coming in here?
[0:14:31 – 0:14:32] Erik: Yeah.
[0:14:32 – 0:14:36] Erik: For the most part, mostly unseasonably warm.
[0:14:37 – 0:14:40] Erik: Yesterday, I went outside at like 9 at night.
[0:14:40 – 0:14:43] Erik: I was like, it’s still like 55 degrees out here.
[0:14:43 – 0:14:44] Erik: This is freakish.
[0:14:44 – 0:14:48] Adam: I’ve had multiple days where I’ve been like, this is probably the last time we’re going to see 60 degrees, huh?
[0:14:49 – 0:14:51] Adam: And then like a week later, it’s like, maybe I’ll put shorts on.
[0:14:51 – 0:14:52] Adam: It’s 64 again.
[0:14:52 – 0:14:54] Adam: That’s happened a couple times to me.
[0:14:55 – 0:15:00] Adam: That one may have been the last one, but Eric assures me it’s going to be back up in at least the 50s next week.
[0:15:00 – 0:15:01] Erik: Yeah, it looks like it.
[0:15:01 – 0:15:03] Adam: We’ve got a good chance of snow tomorrow, it looks like.
[0:15:04 – 0:15:10] Erik: Yeah, I’ve been watching the… Shout out to Ryan Hall, y’all, on YouTube.
[0:15:10 – 0:15:10] Erik: Oh, I love that channel.
[0:15:10 – 0:15:11] Erik: He’s a great guy.
[0:15:11 – 0:15:14] Erik: I love his weekly kind of updates.
[0:15:14 – 0:15:17] Erik: He’ll go in-depth whenever there’s a big outbreak.
[0:15:17 – 0:15:19] Erik: We might have to go live next week.
[0:15:19 – 0:15:25] Erik: He has a forecast where he’s like, 50% chance I go live this night because of a hurricane or some kind of an outbreak.
[0:15:26 – 0:15:28] Erik: But I just love the way that he talks about weather.
[0:15:28 – 0:15:29] Erik: It’s much more in-depth.
[0:15:29 – 0:15:29] Erik: It’s not just…
[0:15:30 – 0:15:35] Adam: Yeah, a lot of moisture streaming up from the Gulf right now, colliding with the cold pressure, the cold front.
[0:15:36 – 0:15:39] Erik: Kind of the glossy overview that you get from most nightly newscasts.
[0:15:39 – 0:15:46] Adam: Yeah, you get all the models, which are fun to look at, and then his interpretation of those models, and yeah, he’s a smooth talker.
[0:15:47 – 0:15:50] Erik: Yeah, he’s a good YouTube follow if you’re into weather at all.
[0:15:50 – 0:15:51] Erik: Y’all.
[0:15:51 – 0:15:52] Erik: Y’all.
[0:15:52 – 0:15:59] Erik: He was basically, I mean, just showing the massive cold trough that’s been tracking across the country.
[0:16:00 – 0:16:07] Erik: And inevitably what that does is allow a bunch of warmth from the Gulf to come up, which is what we’ve been experiencing this week.
[0:16:08 – 0:16:26] Erik: And then last night at about 5 a.m. or this morning at about 5 a.m., I feel like the warm air met that marching cold front and it was a wild display of lightning and it felt like it was like mid-July.
[0:16:27 – 0:16:27] Erik: Heavy thunder.
[0:16:27 – 0:16:31] Erik: Heavy thunder, heavy rain just like raking the windows in sheets.
[0:16:33 – 0:16:38] Adam: Yeah, no, I thought the baby wanted a bottle, but I think she just heard the thunder and was up.
[0:16:38 – 0:16:42] Adam: So the two of us got up and sat on the couch and watched the lightning show.
[0:16:42 – 0:16:44] Adam: It was nonstop.
[0:16:44 – 0:16:48] Adam: Like one of the better like sunrise experiences I’ve ever had.
[0:16:49 – 0:16:50] Erik: Also the timing of it.
[0:16:50 – 0:16:54] Erik: You know, usually that kind of weather is like you just assume it’s always associated like –
[0:16:55 – 0:17:22] Adam: late afternoon yeah kind of a thunder shower with big storms moving through early evening and early evening but like never like that that early morning thunderstorm that’s kind of a rare occurrence once in a while you wake up in the middle of the night and hear some thunder you know but like this one was like a five to five to six a.m was the main boomers and then yeah like as soon as that kind of went through and cleared up then slowly the yard started to brighten up a little bit
[0:17:23 – 0:17:29] Erik: The wind shifted, and then all of a sudden it was just like, oh, yeah, the high is going to be like 42 today.
[0:17:29 – 0:17:29] Adam: Yeah.
[0:17:30 – 0:17:31] Adam: Oh, and then I started a fire after that.
[0:17:31 – 0:17:34] Adam: I was just sitting there watching, and it’s like, oh, it’s kind of chilly in here, actually.
[0:17:34 – 0:17:37] Adam: I’m going to actually whip a fire up.
[0:17:37 – 0:17:43] Erik: I mean, for October 30th, insane weather.
[0:17:43 – 0:17:46] Erik: Say what you will about whether or not we’re going to get back into the 50s or maybe 60s.
[0:17:46 – 0:17:47] Erik: Yeah.
[0:17:48 – 0:17:54] Erik: I feel much more confident saying that’s probably going to be the last significant big thunder that rolls through.
[0:17:55 – 0:18:00] Adam: Yeah, I don’t think we ever had any thunder on our entire month in Quetico, and that was all October.
[0:18:00 – 0:18:06] Adam: Maybe at the very beginning, some distant rumblers, but nothing like that, especially late in October.
[0:18:06 – 0:18:13] Adam: Usually we’ve had some snow by now, and we’ve had none, but it does sound like we’ll see some tomorrow for Halloween.
[0:18:14 – 0:18:19] Adam: Are you expecting any trick-or-treaters over at Studio V?
[0:18:19 – 0:18:20] Erik: Well, I won’t be there.
[0:18:20 – 0:18:20] Erik: I’ll be working.
[0:18:20 – 0:18:22] Erik: So, no.
[0:18:22 – 0:18:23] Erik: No.
[0:18:23 – 0:18:26] Erik: I don’t think we’ve ever gotten a trick-or-treater.
[0:18:26 – 0:18:28] Erik: Just a little too off the beaten path.
[0:18:28 – 0:18:29] Adam: Yeah.
[0:18:30 – 0:18:35] Adam: The neighbor has a couple kids, and we got some kids, but I’ve never seen any trick-or-treaters.
[0:18:35 – 0:18:38] Adam: Every year, we get a bunch of candy anyways, and then just eat it.
[0:18:39 – 0:18:39] Adam: Mm-hmm.
[0:18:39 – 0:18:40] Adam: You never know.
[0:18:40 – 0:18:46] Adam: We put out the spooky skeleton and carved the pumpkins and yeah, hoping this is going to be the year.
[0:18:46 – 0:18:50] Adam: I always tell the neighbor, I’m like, we got big candy bars, like bring the kids by.
[0:18:50 – 0:18:54] Adam: But most people, if you’re trick-or-treating up here, I think just go to town for trick-or-treating.
[0:18:54 – 0:18:58] Erik: I mean, and even in Grand Marais, it’s like you go to the community center or whatever.
[0:18:59 – 0:19:00] Erik: But there’s a couple of streets.
[0:19:00 – 0:19:02] Erik: You got to go classic.
[0:19:02 – 0:19:05] Erik: You got to go vintage with it and actually walk down the streets.
[0:19:05 – 0:19:09] Adam: Yeah, trunk-and-treats, I’m 100% against trunk-and-treat.
[0:19:10 – 0:19:16] Adam: Also, one of the main reasons I wanted to leave Manitowoc, Wisconsin was because when I was a kid, trick-or-treating was like at 3 in the afternoon.
[0:19:17 – 0:19:20] Adam: Daylight trick-or-treating, that was the thing for safety.
[0:19:20 – 0:19:20] Adam: Give me a break.
[0:19:21 – 0:19:22] Adam: I knew right then and there.
[0:19:23 – 0:19:24] Erik: Safety’s overrated.
[0:19:24 – 0:19:25] Adam: Manitowoc was not for me.
[0:19:26 – 0:19:28] Adam: But no, Grand Marais still does a legit…
[0:19:28 – 0:19:33] Adam: Halloween night, night trick-or-treating, and everybody’s fine and having a great time.
[0:19:34 – 0:19:37] Adam: Pike was a little too little last year.
[0:19:37 – 0:19:41] Adam: I think this year we might actually go, but we’ll see what the snowstorm does or whatever.
[0:19:43 – 0:19:45] Adam: I know which neighborhoods in Grand Marais give out the best candy.
[0:19:45 – 0:19:46] Adam: We’ll be down there probably.
[0:19:47 – 0:19:48] Adam: Go take a spinner on the block.
[0:19:49 – 0:19:57] Adam: I think Pike’s going to be a ghost, and I’m going to be a combination of Jason and Grant from the original Ghost Hunters.
[0:19:57 – 0:20:00] Erik: I was going to say, you have to be some kind of a ghost hunter then, right?
[0:20:00 – 0:20:01] Adam: Yeah, I’m going to be a ghost hunter.
[0:20:01 – 0:20:05] Adam: I rigged up a FLIR and a nice EVP meter.
[0:20:05 – 0:20:06] Adam: What’s a FLIR?
[0:20:06 – 0:20:12] Adam: The FLIR is the heat video where it shows, oh, a ghost just ran across the hallway in front of me.
[0:20:12 – 0:20:14] Erik: But it’s a really cold display, right?
[0:20:14 – 0:20:18] Adam: Yeah, well, if it’s cold and snowing, everything will be blue and purple out there.
[0:20:18 – 0:20:19] Adam: Perfect, yeah.
[0:20:19 – 0:20:22] Adam: But if you see any heat, then you know that’s a hot ghost.
[0:20:22 – 0:20:23] Erik: It’s a hot ghost.
[0:20:23 – 0:20:24] Adam: I always like the FLIR.
[0:20:24 – 0:20:26] Adam: I don’t know.
[0:20:26 – 0:20:32] Adam: There’s all sorts of different gizmos on the various ghost hunting shows out there, but I am partial to the FLIR video feed.
[0:20:33 – 0:20:37] Adam: I just think that evidence is at least the most impressive to me.
[0:20:37 – 0:20:38] Erik: It’s interesting to look at.
[0:20:38 – 0:20:39] Adam: Yeah, it is.
[0:20:39 – 0:20:42] Adam: Much more than like, did you hear that?
[0:20:42 – 0:20:42] Adam: And it’s like,
[0:20:44 – 0:20:45] Adam: Did you hear that?
[0:20:45 – 0:20:46] Adam: I think it said pancake.
[0:20:46 – 0:20:47] Adam: Yeah.
[0:20:47 – 0:20:47] Adam: That’s weird.
[0:20:48 – 0:20:48] Adam: Weird.
[0:20:48 – 0:20:49] Adam: This griddle’s haunted.
[0:20:50 – 0:20:51] Adam: It’s a haunted griddle.
[0:20:51 – 0:20:59] Adam: But yeah, I’ve been watching a lot of Ghost Hunter shows, so once we decided Pike was going to be a ghost, I was like, okay, so here’s the costume.
[0:20:59 – 0:21:00] Adam: You get a piece of like…
[0:21:00 – 0:21:04] Adam: uh, equipment to hold and sort of, you know, act like you’re listening.
[0:21:04 – 0:21:09] Adam: I’m going to wear like headphones, the big over the ear headphones, and then have the like gizmo.
[0:21:09 – 0:21:09] Adam: Yeah.
[0:21:09 – 0:21:14] Adam: And then like, we’re all black with like a backwards baseball hat.
[0:21:14 – 0:21:16] Adam: And that’s how we black too.
[0:21:16 – 0:21:17] Adam: I have a black Packers hat.
[0:21:17 – 0:21:18] Adam: I can wear that backwards and,
[0:21:19 – 0:21:21] Erik: With the logo taped out for copyright.
[0:21:21 – 0:21:24] Adam: Yeah, and then I’ll put taps over that and yellow lettering.
[0:21:24 – 0:21:24] Adam: Yeah.
[0:21:25 – 0:21:27] Adam: The Atlantic Paranormal Society.
[0:21:27 – 0:21:28] Adam: I found out that they…
[0:21:29 – 0:21:34] Adam: I was on their Wikipedia page this week doing research, and their original society was called R.I.P.S.
[0:21:35 – 0:21:37] Adam: for Rhode Island Paranormal Society.
[0:21:37 – 0:21:38] Adam: Dang.
[0:21:38 – 0:21:44] Adam: And then for some reason, I guess they were trying to make more of a regional outfit, so then they went with The Atlantic Paranormal.
[0:21:44 – 0:21:44] Erik: Yeah.
[0:21:44 – 0:21:46] Erik: Taps and R.I.P.S., both good.
[0:21:46 – 0:21:46] Erik: Yeah.
[0:21:46 – 0:21:49] Adam: Yeah, so I’m going to get that logo on there.
[0:21:49 – 0:21:52] Adam: I’ve got to work on my costume tonight because it’s Halloween tomorrow.
[0:21:52 – 0:21:53] Adam: Halloween Eve.
[0:21:53 – 0:21:56] Adam: This is, yeah, the, what do you call that?
[0:21:57 – 0:21:57] Adam: Demon night.
[0:21:59 – 0:21:59] Adam: Yeah, demon night.
[0:21:59 – 0:22:00] Adam: Night of the demon.
[0:22:00 – 0:22:01] Adam: Night of the demon.
[0:22:01 – 0:22:02] Adam: That’s what they call it.
[0:22:02 – 0:22:03] Adam: The night before Halloween.
[0:22:03 – 0:22:04] Adam: What a segue.
[0:22:04 – 0:22:13] Adam: And that is what we will be discussing after this episode on the next installment of Tumble Home Cinema Classics, the 1980s.
[0:22:15 – 0:22:40] Adam: cult classic bigfoot movie night of the demon and uh the only reason that we’re watching this is because i saw a clip on instagram picture app of a guy getting picked up and swung around in his sleeping bag by uh the bigfoot yeah i watched that from this movie i watched that this morning and man we you got you know it’s like anything you know it’s an appreciation yeah
[0:22:42 – 0:23:02] Erik: I’ve been thinking a lot this fall just about like the appreciation of days, both in terms of, you know, the definition of the word like to appreciate, but then also like the accumulation and how it’s so easy to lose that like appreciation for days as the good ones kind of just slowly build.
[0:23:02 – 0:23:09] Erik: And you’re just in like this bubble of every day is amazing, which is kind of what this fall has been like.
[0:23:09 – 0:23:10] Adam: Absolutely.
[0:23:10 – 0:23:10] Adam: Yeah.
[0:23:10 – 0:23:16] Erik: And then you get a stretch of some bad weather and you learn to appreciate the good days even more.
[0:23:17 – 0:23:27] Erik: And watching Night of the Demon after doing what seemed like a real true stretch of actual cinema, real good movies.
[0:23:27 – 0:23:33] Adam: We went from Scorsese to I can’t name the director and I won’t name the director of Night of the Demon.
[0:23:33 – 0:23:56] Erik: no no and it really real step i mean it’s just one of those things that you need to watch a movie like this you need to get a you need to get a bad day to appreciate the good ones absolutely yeah and that’s what this movie is it’s a it help it will help you appreciate good movies which is
[0:23:56 – 0:23:57] Adam: I don’t know.
[0:23:57 – 0:23:58] Adam: It works in reverse, too.
[0:23:58 – 0:24:02] Adam: You watch Cape Fear, and then you watch Night of the Demon.
[0:24:04 – 0:24:05] Adam: It makes it seem even worse.
[0:24:05 – 0:24:05] Adam: It does.
[0:24:06 – 0:24:09] Adam: It’s even more horrendous to the senses.
[0:24:10 – 0:24:14] Erik: I mean, there are, it’s not, there’s also like, we’ll get into it.
[0:24:14 – 0:24:20] Erik: Like obviously the mezzanine is, Trevor’s up there right now.
[0:24:20 – 0:24:24] Erik: He’s back from his Eastern Europe.
[0:24:24 – 0:24:26] Erik: His visa expired and they booted him.
[0:24:26 – 0:24:27] Erik: He’s back.
[0:24:27 – 0:24:32] Adam: He’s back and actually Andrew picked him up hitchhiking on 61 down in Two Harbors.
[0:24:32 – 0:24:33] Erik: Complete coincidence.
[0:24:33 – 0:24:33] Adam: Yeah.
[0:24:34 – 0:24:37] Erik: But he’s up there getting the fire started because it’s going to be a chilly night in the mezzanine.
[0:24:37 – 0:24:40] Erik: We are talking about Night of the Demon.
[0:24:40 – 0:24:43] Adam: There’s multiple Nights of the Demon and like Demon Night and…
[0:24:44 – 0:24:46] Erik: It wasn’t the easiest movie to find.
[0:24:46 – 0:24:50] Adam: No, it wasn’t, because you had to really be careful to make sure you’re actually watching the right bad demon movie.
[0:24:51 – 0:25:00] Adam: 1980, it is also sort of listed as 1983, depending on… That must have been a re-release under a different production label, maybe.
[0:25:00 – 0:25:05] Adam: I don’t know, but the original was 1980, Night of the Demon, and it’s awful.
[0:25:06 – 0:25:07] Adam: It is, but at least…
[0:25:07 – 0:25:08] Erik: In all the right ways.
[0:25:08 – 0:25:10] Erik: Yes, I will say it’s not awful…
[0:25:11 – 0:25:12] Erik: It’s not awfully boring.
[0:25:13 – 0:25:15] Adam: No, and it wasn’t really, it’s not scary.
[0:25:15 – 0:25:16] Adam: No, definitely not.
[0:25:16 – 0:25:18] Adam: It’s not like you’re laughing at it the whole time either.
[0:25:19 – 0:25:30] Erik: But there’s also some scenes where you really, really have to question the decision making that went into, why include this?
[0:25:31 – 0:25:32] Erik: They had to get the run time up.
[0:25:33 – 0:25:33] Erik: Get the run time up?
[0:25:33 – 0:25:36] Adam: Barely, you know, a one hour, one and a half hour run time.
[0:25:36 – 0:25:39] Erik: I mean, it’s like the – what’s the movie series that’s out now?
[0:25:39 – 0:25:47] Erik: The Terrorizer, The Freakerizer or whatever where it’s just like straight up geek show where it’s like can you handle watching this amount of gore?
[0:25:49 – 0:25:53] Erik: It’s like, okay, well, there’s nothing about this that’s crazy or scary or interesting.
[0:25:53 – 0:25:56] Erik: But like, yeah, if you want to watch a person get –
[0:25:56 – 0:26:20] Erik: slash with a razor blade a bunch of times and have a bunch of salt and acid poured on them then yeah this is the movie for you or if you want to watch a man get his penis ripped off by a sasquatch then uh night of the demon is maybe also for you too but it’s also it’s unclear how the penis was removed unclear they’ve been bitten off
[0:26:20 – 0:26:22] Erik: Yeah, but it was removed, I’m pretty sure.
[0:26:22 – 0:26:24] Adam: It was definitely de-penised.
[0:26:25 – 0:26:25] Erik: Yes.
[0:26:25 – 0:26:27] Erik: The man… And he died from it.
[0:26:28 – 0:26:28] Erik: Yeah.
[0:26:28 – 0:26:29] Erik: Just bled out.
[0:26:30 – 0:26:30] Erik: Dude.
[0:26:31 – 0:26:31] Adam: Yeah.
[0:26:32 – 0:26:32] Adam: Ding.
[0:26:32 – 0:26:37] Adam: We just got the… Trevor set off the alarm like, remember to move it along, fellas.
[0:26:37 – 0:26:38] Adam: Yeah, all right.
[0:26:39 – 0:26:40] Adam: We’ll get into the…
[0:26:40 – 0:26:41] Adam: But yeah, it’s…
[0:26:42 – 0:26:42] Adam: I enjoyed…
[0:26:42 – 0:26:44] Adam: I did enjoy watching it.
[0:26:44 – 0:26:47] Adam: I was pleased to see that the sleeping bag…
[0:26:47 – 0:26:49] Adam: Man getting twirled around in the sleeping bag scene.
[0:26:49 – 0:26:55] Adam: It was clearly not one of the main characters because it happened in the first 10 minutes of the movie.
[0:26:55 – 0:27:03] Adam: I was really surprised, I guess, that that was not part of the finale because that was the most famous clip from the movie that I had seen at least.
[0:27:03 – 0:27:04] Erik: Yeah.
[0:27:04 – 0:27:17] Erik: But at least at the very least, you know, sometimes you get these movies of this ilk that are just essentially stupid teenagers wandering around the woods.
[0:27:17 – 0:27:24] Erik: It’s just like all filler of like people walking through the woods, kind of mildly getting chased.
[0:27:24 – 0:27:24] Erik: Yeah.
[0:27:24 – 0:27:28] Erik: And then like there’s maybe a kill, a bad kill or two, and then it ends.
[0:27:29 – 0:27:35] Erik: At the very least, this movie does have a few interesting concepts.
[0:27:35 – 0:27:36] Adam: It gets you thinking at the end.
[0:27:36 – 0:27:38] Erik: It’s got some interesting concepts.
[0:27:38 – 0:27:40] Erik: At least it was an idea.
[0:27:40 – 0:27:44] Erik: So I can’t wait to talk about some of the ideas in it.
[0:27:44 – 0:27:51] Adam: Yeah, like it’s got like the main villain, I would say, isn’t the Bigfoot, even though Bigfoot does all the killing.
[0:27:51 – 0:27:52] Adam: Most of the killing.
[0:27:52 – 0:27:53] Erik: Is it even a Bigfoot?
[0:27:55 – 0:27:58] Erik: Not in the typical… Big monkey.
[0:27:58 – 0:28:00] Erik: It’s more of a monkey, I would say.
[0:28:00 – 0:28:02] Adam: I don’t know what it is, but yeah, it’s Bigfoot.
[0:28:03 – 0:28:05] Adam: They take… Anyways, I don’t want to say too much more on it.
[0:28:05 – 0:28:06] Adam: It’s great.

[0:30:04 – 0:30:06] Adam: We truly appreciate it.
[0:30:06 – 0:30:07] Erik: Truly.
[0:30:07 – 0:30:16] Adam: It is Halloween tomorrow, and we always like to try and tell some spooky tales around Halloween.
[0:30:16 – 0:30:20] Adam: We always like to do a couple cheesy horror movies or whatever you call that.
[0:30:20 – 0:30:23] Adam: I don’t know what that genre is, if it’s even horror.
[0:30:25 – 0:30:43] Erik: night of the demon yeah yeah i don’t know there’s like so like horror would be like the umbrella and then you know under that you know there are varying degrees of like class like i don’t know like a classy horror or like a trashy horror or elegant horror
[0:30:43 – 0:30:54] Erik: Yeah, and this Night of the Demon is, it’s like a shocky, like, we’re just going to zoom in on the axe wound, and that’s going to be scary, where it’s like… What was the one last year?
[0:30:54 – 0:30:56] Adam: We did a couple last year.
[0:30:56 – 0:30:58] Erik: We had a hot streak of, like, animal horror movies.
[0:30:59 – 0:31:00] Adam: Yeah, like critter flicks.
[0:31:01 – 0:31:01] Adam: Yes.
[0:31:01 – 0:31:03] Adam: Like gross critter flicks.
[0:31:04 – 0:31:10] Adam: Kind of like that X-Files called up and with the gooey animals in the cocoons that are attracted to light.
[0:31:10 – 0:31:11] Adam: That kind of stuff.
[0:31:11 – 0:31:12] Adam: Yeah.
[0:31:12 – 0:31:13] Erik: Honestly, what was it?
[0:31:13 – 0:31:14] Adam: Ticks?
[0:31:14 – 0:31:15] Adam: Tix, that’s right.
[0:31:15 – 0:31:15] Adam: We did Tix.
[0:31:15 – 0:31:17] Erik: There was one Tix with Clint Howard, I believe.
[0:31:17 – 0:31:18] Adam: And Skeeters.
[0:31:18 – 0:31:19] Adam: One was just like wobble.
[0:31:19 – 0:31:20] Adam: Oh, big Skeeters.
[0:31:20 – 0:31:24] Adam: Like radioactive mosquitoes that we did.
[0:31:24 – 0:31:26] Adam: But, you know, go look in the library.
[0:31:26 – 0:31:31] Adam: We’ve also done like a lot of classic horror, you know, Evil Dead 2.
[0:31:32 – 0:31:53] Adam: yes we did like poltergeist you know we’ve got a lot of those in there too so i mean if you’re craving creepy content we’ve got you covered um both when it comes to just like ghost and camp stories and also just like creepy you know cinema we’ve done a lot of we’ve done so many just i think that’s kind of how it started um
[0:31:54 – 0:32:16] Erik: was because so many of those there’s not like a i mean unless we want to go and like watch on golden pond or something are there like good non-horror camping based movies like it seems like any movie that involves camping it’s got to be scary yeah you know zany comedy and like yeah like up a creek or whatever
[0:32:17 – 0:32:18] Erik: Yes, without a paddle.
[0:32:18 – 0:32:19] Erik: Yeah.
[0:32:19 – 0:32:19] Erik: Whatever.
[0:32:19 – 0:32:20] Adam: Or a strange wilderness.
[0:32:22 – 0:32:22] SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
[0:32:22 – 0:32:24] Erik: So we’ve got you covered every which way.
[0:32:25 – 0:32:30] Adam: One of the all-time greats, though, which we’ve talked about at length on this show, is Over the Garden Wall.
[0:32:31 – 0:32:40] Adam: And if anybody out there is somehow listening to 270 episodes of Tome Woman not watched Over the Garden Wall, it’s imperative that you get to it now, or at least between now and Thanksgiving.
[0:32:40 – 0:32:41] Erik: Yeah, well, that’s the thing.
[0:32:41 – 0:32:43] Erik: We always have talked about this.
[0:32:43 – 0:32:54] Erik: It is the greatest post-Halloween, pre-Thanksgiving window where, yes, it could very much be an October and Halloween episode.
[0:32:54 – 0:32:56] Adam: It’s just good for that.
[0:32:56 – 0:33:01] Adam: Somebody posted that it was on the Cartoon Network’s live YouTube.
[0:33:02 – 0:33:09] Adam: They were just playing on a loop, both behind-the-scenes stuff and then random episodes with the director’s commentary in there.
[0:33:10 – 0:33:10] Erik: Wow.
[0:33:11 – 0:33:30] Adam: They talked a lot in that one about how the first whole episode is at night, and they were like, well, that was one of the last episodes we made because we were really trying to establish the autumnal feel of the show, and the floating leaves that catch themselves in the fence and kind of shimmer there, and that whole fall aesthetic.
[0:33:31 – 0:33:38] Adam: But the whole first episode’s in the dark, so they couldn’t really establish that feel, but I think they’ve done a really nice job through all 10 episodes.
[0:33:38 – 0:33:39] Adam: Yeah.
[0:33:39 – 0:33:42] Adam: It definitely feels like something you should be watching this time of year.
[0:33:44 – 0:33:45] Adam: There’s a TCC on that?
[0:33:46 – 0:33:47] Adam: There is, yeah.
[0:33:47 – 0:33:49] Erik: If you need it, but I don’t really think you do.
[0:33:49 – 0:33:51] Erik: That one’s just a high…
[0:33:52 – 0:34:19] Adam: high grade recommendation regardless of whether or not you want to listen to what we have to say about it afterwards well i think somebody on the discord was like i just watched it i didn’t realize like how much they are using quotes from over the garden wall on the show and there’s all these little you know references to it sprinkled throughout tumble home which is true i find that just in my daily everyday life i constantly am using little quips from over the garden wall
[0:34:19 – 0:34:24] Erik: Yeah, 40% of my conversation is just like quotes from things I like.
[0:34:25 – 0:34:25] Erik: And that’s a big one.
[0:34:25 – 0:34:28] Erik: Not all 40%, but it’s a percentage.
[0:34:30 – 0:34:31] Adam: Anyways, I was watching it again this morning.
[0:34:31 – 0:34:34] Adam: Just this morning, wow.
[0:34:34 – 0:34:38] Adam: After the thunderstorm went through, I was like, I don’t know, I’m going to put it on over the garden wall.
[0:34:38 – 0:34:39] Adam: Can’t get enough of it this time of year.
[0:34:40 – 0:34:43] Adam: The show does technically take place on Halloween.
[0:34:43 – 0:34:44] Adam: I don’t want to give away too much.
[0:34:44 – 0:34:47] Adam: If you haven’t watched it, just start at episode one and please watch through.
[0:34:48 – 0:34:54] Adam: But I found a couple new deep cuts watching it this morning that I wanted to run by you and see if you’ve ever noticed this.
[0:34:54 – 0:35:01] Adam: Episode one, the gristmill, when the farmer’s pet is chasing him around, what they originally think to be the beast.
[0:35:02 – 0:35:03] Adam: Oh, because it’s just got the turtle in him?
[0:35:03 – 0:35:04] Adam: Yeah, right.
[0:35:04 – 0:35:07] Adam: It’s choking on a black turtle.
[0:35:07 – 0:35:18] Adam: And it’s followed the candy trail all the way to the gristmill and is chasing him around inside the cabin, I think, and then eventually chases him up into the mill itself.
[0:35:18 – 0:35:28] Adam: There’s a sack of potatoes in the corner that has, it just says potatoes, and it has a picture of Beatrice the bluebird on the sack of potatoes, which I’ve never noticed somehow.
[0:35:28 – 0:35:29] Adam: It’s weird.
[0:35:29 – 0:35:33] Adam: I have probably watched Over the Garden Wall 150 times, easy, all the way through.
[0:35:33 – 0:35:40] Adam: I’ve never once noticed that sack of potatoes in the background at the woodsman’s house with a bluebird on it.
[0:35:41 – 0:35:44] Adam: And then it’s knocked over.
[0:35:46 – 0:35:49] Adam: And then, you know, eventually in the flashbacks, we see that.
[0:35:49 – 0:35:54] Adam: So once the dog, like, chokes up the black turtle, it turns back into, like, a nice dog.
[0:35:54 – 0:35:54] Adam: A friendly dog.
[0:35:54 – 0:36:00] Adam: In the flashbacks, you see that when Beatrice, in her human form with her family, that that’s their dog.
[0:36:00 – 0:36:00] Erik: Oh.
[0:36:01 – 0:36:03] Adam: That’s Beatrice’s dog in a human form.
[0:36:03 – 0:36:04] Erik: Yeah.
[0:36:04 – 0:36:09] Adam: And it’s also bird Beatrice is on the sack of potatoes that the dog, like,
[0:36:10 – 0:36:36] Adam: scampers passed in the first episode but uh i always like that uh the woodsman uh this one quote this is not the beast you can’t mollify him like some farmer’s pet but it turns out it is a farmer’s pet yeah uh which is why the woodsman knows this um anyways i just was now i’m wondering like perhaps beatrice and her family are potato farmers sure uh maybe they live in manitowoc wisconsin
[0:36:36 – 0:36:37] Erik: Yeah.
[0:36:37 – 0:36:40] Erik: I mean, the second episode’s all about farming.
[0:36:40 – 0:36:43] Adam: My dad was just up here, too, and he grew up on a potato farm for real.
[0:36:43 – 0:36:47] Adam: I joke about it a lot, but a lot of potato farmers are on Manitowoc.
[0:36:47 – 0:36:58] Adam: And he was telling me, I don’t feel like my dad’s this old, but he was telling me about how my grandpa, his dad, would just go out and there’d be flocks of sparrows so thick it would block out the sun.
[0:36:58 – 0:36:59] Erik: Oh, yeah.
[0:36:59 – 0:37:01] Adam: And he would just go out there with a shotgun and blast sparrows.
[0:37:01 – 0:37:03] Adam: He’s like, yeah, and we’d just eat sparrows for dinner.
[0:37:03 – 0:37:04] Adam: Just sky full of
[0:37:05 – 0:37:05] Erik: Free meat.
[0:37:06 – 0:37:08] Erik: Free meat flying over the potato farm.
[0:37:08 – 0:37:11] Erik: Yeah, you got to shoot down a whole bunch of those to get enough meat.
[0:37:11 – 0:37:13] Adam: That’s a lot of sparrows for a little bit of meat.
[0:37:14 – 0:37:16] Adam: I guess I’ve never heard that story before.
[0:37:17 – 0:37:21] Adam: Anyways, now my new theory is that Beatrice and her human family are potato farmers.
[0:37:22 – 0:37:22] Adam: Okay.
[0:37:22 – 0:37:23] Adam: So I’m tuned into this.
[0:37:24 – 0:37:26] Adam: Episode three at the schoolhouse.
[0:37:26 – 0:37:26] Erik: Yeah.
[0:37:27 – 0:37:29] Adam: They’re famously eating potatoes and molasses.
[0:37:29 – 0:37:30] Adam: Famous.
[0:37:30 – 0:37:34] Adam: In the background in that scene, there’s another sack of potatoes with the bluebird on it.
[0:37:34 – 0:37:58] Adam: wow so i only made it through episode six this morning so that was the only two potato sacks i’ve seen if anybody else out there is listening and has seen the potato sacks hit me up on the dms and instagram tumble home cast picture app or at the email tumble home cast at gmail.com how many potato sacks are in over the garden wall that’s the new trivia i’m going to try and figure out for sure too
[0:37:59 – 0:37:59] Erik: Yeah, at least two.
[0:37:59 – 0:38:02] Erik: Have you seen this potato sack?
[0:38:03 – 0:38:20] Adam: It’s just odd to me, and I like the little flashbacks at the beginning and end that show the little figurines, which are made by the toy maker, who is a minor side character that appears at the Dark Lantern tavern in episode four.
[0:38:20 – 0:38:22] Adam: Yeah.
[0:38:23 – 0:38:25] Adam: So you’re not just a dim-witted lover.
[0:38:25 – 0:38:26] Adam: You’re a pilgrim.
[0:38:26 – 0:38:27] Erik: I’m the highway man.
[0:38:28 – 0:38:29] Erik: I’m the highway man.
[0:38:29 – 0:38:30] Adam: I make ends meet.
[0:38:30 – 0:38:32] Adam: I work with my hands.
[0:38:33 – 0:38:37] Adam: Another little weird side thing I saw, and this will be the last one on Over the Garden Wall.
[0:38:37 – 0:38:46] Adam: I don’t want to get too far down the tangent, but on the Frogland Ferry, for some reason I just noticed the way the boat was, the steamship was decorated.
[0:38:47 – 0:38:53] Adam: There is about 150 red orbs all over the Frogland Ferry.
[0:38:53 – 0:38:55] Adam: They look like the Chinese lanterns almost.
[0:38:55 – 0:38:58] Adam: Yeah, they have little weird sun designs with orbs.
[0:38:58 – 0:39:01] Adam: And then, I don’t know, the whole boat’s covered in red orbs.
[0:39:01 – 0:39:04] Adam: I go, Natalie, look at how many red orbs are on the Frogland Ferry.
[0:39:04 – 0:39:05] Adam: She’s like, so what?
[0:39:06 – 0:39:06] Adam: So what?
[0:39:06 – 0:39:07] Adam: Red orbs, though.
[0:39:07 – 0:39:08] Adam: It’s key to everything.
[0:39:08 – 0:39:10] Erik: Yeah, that’s the key to everything.
[0:39:10 – 0:39:11] Adam: I’m too young to go to frog jail.
[0:39:14 – 0:39:16] Adam: The first part of that quote’s even better.
[0:39:16 – 0:39:18] Adam: I don’t think today is a good day to be arrested by frogs, Eric.
[0:39:19 – 0:39:19] Adam: No, it never is.
[0:39:19 – 0:39:20] Adam: I’m too young to go to frog jail.
[0:39:22 – 0:39:24] Adam: Anyways, that’s all I got for you on Over the Garden Wall for this year.
[0:39:25 – 0:39:30] Adam: But there is unlimited amounts of little fine detail in that show, which is just a delight.
[0:39:31 – 0:39:33] Adam: So I highly recommend anybody go out and get it.
[0:39:33 – 0:39:37] Erik: Yeah, if you’re interested in pure…
[0:39:39 – 0:39:40] Erik: like creativity.
[0:39:40 – 0:39:43] Erik: That’s what that show always strikes me as.
[0:39:44 – 0:39:47] Erik: It’s just like, it’s a pure standalone story.
[0:39:48 – 0:39:50] Erik: That’s not, Oh my God.
[0:39:50 – 0:39:53] Erik: He just showed me a picture of the demon, the Sasquatch.
[0:39:55 – 0:40:24] Erik: there’s not just I mean there is there’s tons of content out there especially in the animated and the anime realm but this one is just I’m sure there are some little nods to other stories in general but like on its own and as a whole it’s one of the most unique and creative pieces of art I’ve ever had the pleasure of getting to watch did you ever watch the like pilot episode that never aired that was just like a test episode for the concept
[0:40:24 – 0:40:38] Adam: In which it’s kind of like a Pottsfield Redux episode where they’re going to a little town and they run into this lonely farmer named John Crops who’s made of gourds and such.
[0:40:38 – 0:40:38] Adam: I don’t think so.
[0:40:38 – 0:40:40] Adam: And he drives a watermelon car.
[0:40:41 – 0:40:44] Adam: They ride the watermelon car down to this like concert slash dance.
[0:40:44 – 0:40:50] Adam: And then he like, oh, there’s something happens to one of the musicians and he happens to like play guitar and he falls in love.
[0:40:51 – 0:40:55] Adam: And there’s like giant turkeys and ravens pecking at them and trying to eat the watermelon car.
[0:40:55 – 0:40:56] Erik: No, this is not.
[0:40:56 – 0:40:56] Erik: Wow.
[0:40:56 – 0:40:57] Adam: You really should go and find that.
[0:40:58 – 0:41:06] Adam: It’s and then somebody else did point out that like there’s going to be a claymation like stop motion animation over the garden wall special coming out this year.
[0:41:06 – 0:41:07] Adam: Wow.
[0:41:07 – 0:41:08] Adam: That would be in November.
[0:41:09 – 0:41:18] Erik: I should look to see if there’s a physical copy of Over the Garden Wall I can get my hands on because that’s the realm I’m in right now.
[0:41:18 – 0:41:22] Erik: Because I am preparing for the inevitable turn off of the internet.
[0:41:23 – 0:41:27] Erik: Or the just eventual removal of some of my favorite movies.
[0:41:27 – 0:41:28] Adam: I feel like we had it.
[0:41:28 – 0:41:33] Adam: Like we bought a digital copy of it at one point just to make sure we always had Over the Garden Wall.
[0:41:33 – 0:41:33] Adam: Yeah.
[0:41:34 – 0:41:35] Adam: I can’t find those files anywhere.
[0:41:35 – 0:41:36] Erik: Do we ever really own them?
[0:41:36 – 0:41:36] Erik: That’s the thing.
[0:41:36 – 0:41:40] Erik: It’s like, oh, yeah, I’m going to buy this on Apple or whatever.
[0:41:40 – 0:41:42] Erik: And it’s like, okay, yeah, you still kind of don’t own it.
[0:41:42 – 0:41:44] Erik: I want to be able to hold the damn thing.
[0:41:44 – 0:41:44] Adam: Yeah.
[0:41:45 – 0:41:48] Adam: I was shocked that you actually had a DVD of Cape Fear.
[0:41:49 – 0:41:50] Adam: And a DVD player.
[0:41:50 – 0:41:52] Erik: I don’t have a DVD of Cape Fear.
[0:41:52 – 0:41:52] Erik: I wish I did.
[0:41:52 – 0:41:54] Adam: Oh, what were you watching on DVD?
[0:41:54 – 0:41:55] Adam: Point Break.
[0:41:55 – 0:41:55] Adam: Point Break.
[0:41:55 – 0:41:57] Adam: You had Point Break on DVD.
[0:41:57 – 0:41:57] Adam: Yes.
[0:41:57 – 0:41:58] Adam: You actually have a way.
[0:41:58 – 0:42:02] Adam: Because I’ve got some DVDs, but I don’t have any way to play a DVD anymore.
[0:42:02 – 0:42:03] Erik: Yeah.
[0:42:04 – 0:42:04] Erik: Sad.
[0:42:04 – 0:42:07] Erik: I got an ultra high definition DVD player.
[0:42:07 – 0:42:07] Erik: Wow.
[0:42:07 – 0:42:12] Erik: And I own a large number of my favorite movies on physical copy that I cherish.
[0:42:12 – 0:42:15] Adam: I could probably rent a DVD player from the Grammaray Library.
[0:42:15 – 0:42:17] Erik: Yeah, I’m sure you could.
[0:42:18 – 0:42:21] Adam: But I’d have to get a DVD of Over the Garden Wall first.
[0:42:21 – 0:42:24] Adam: I wonder if you can find that on VHS tape somewhere.
[0:42:24 – 0:42:30] Adam: I’d buy a whole machine just to play that one VHS.
[0:42:30 – 0:42:33] Erik: Just to get the big tube TV that has the VHS player built in?
[0:42:33 – 0:42:34] Erik: Built right in it, yeah.
[0:42:35 – 0:42:35] Adam: That would be cool.
[0:42:38 – 0:42:42] Adam: Anyways, yeah, I think that one would be one that would be worth just owning.
[0:42:42 – 0:42:43] Erik: Yeah, totally.
[0:42:43 – 0:42:43] Erik: Totally.
[0:42:44 – 0:42:49] Adam: But for now, at least I found it on Hulu, I guess.
[0:42:49 – 0:42:53] Adam: It was through our Disney app I found it, but there weren’t ads on it.
[0:42:53 – 0:42:57] Adam: How the hell are you paying a subscription fee for Disney and they’re still putting ads on stuff?
[0:42:58 – 0:42:58] Adam: They sneak it in.
[0:42:59 – 0:42:59] Adam: Give me a break.
[0:43:00 – 0:43:02] Erik: You got to pay $5 more a month to not get the ads.
[0:43:02 – 0:43:04] Adam: It’d probably be worth it, actually.
[0:43:05 – 0:43:06] Adam: Just stop complaining.
[0:43:07 – 0:43:07] Adam: What’s $5?
[0:43:07 – 0:43:10] Adam: You can find that laying in the street these days.
[0:43:10 – 0:43:11] Erik: Hey, it adds up.
[0:43:11 – 0:43:12] Adam: It really does, though.
[0:43:13 – 0:43:14] Adam: Anyways, it’s out there.
[0:43:14 – 0:43:14] Adam: You can buy it.
[0:43:15 – 0:43:17] Adam: I was a little perturbed by the ads coming out on there this morning.
[0:43:17 – 0:43:19] Adam: It was really putting off the mood.
[0:43:22 – 0:43:23] Adam: What are you giving these Duluth ciders?
[0:43:24 – 0:43:27] Adam: I’m going to give them pretty high marks.
[0:43:28 – 0:43:28] Erik: 6.1?
[0:43:32 – 0:43:33] Erik: Crunchy apples.
[0:43:35 – 0:43:35] Adam: There you go.
[0:43:35 – 0:43:36] Adam: I agree.
[0:43:36 – 0:43:36] Adam: They’re really good.
[0:43:37 – 0:43:41] Adam: I at least have two spooky stories to read you tonight.
[0:43:41 – 0:43:42] Erik: At least.
[0:43:42 – 0:43:46] Erik: And we’re maybe not 100% sure if one has been discussed.
[0:43:46 – 0:44:09] Adam: yeah uh i think this has been the first one’s been discussed in at least some detail um both because we were at the location or very near the location of this story and plus there’s multiple stories from sturgeon narrows up in quetico on sturgeon lake that’s truly the heart of the park yeah we can see it up there at the very top of our big map but uh
[0:44:10 – 0:44:15] Adam: Yeah, we paddled through there in 2011, and we didn’t really camp there, though.
[0:44:16 – 0:44:20] Adam: That night we camped up on Blueberry Island on the north part of Sturgeon, not in the Narrows.
[0:44:21 – 0:44:21] Erik: No.
[0:44:22 – 0:44:23] Adam: So we just paddled through there.
[0:44:23 – 0:44:29] Adam: But, yeah, there’s been over the years, I think, numerous stories of people having strange encounters and experiences there.
[0:44:30 – 0:44:54] Adam: and um there is a really good um there’s just an entire story on the star tribunes website which we will put the link in the show notes um and it kind of like at the beginning of that story just discusses a few of the other like random weird little stories that people have about the sturgeon arrows but the main story is by attila ray dabasi dabasi
[0:44:55 – 0:44:58] Adam: And I wanted to read that for you tonight, if that’s okay.
[0:44:59 – 0:44:59] Adam: Yes.
[0:44:59 – 0:45:05] Adam: And like I said, the link is in the show notes if you want to go read it yourself or forward this on to anybody.
[0:45:05 – 0:45:13] Adam: It’s a good, spooky canoe country story for you on Halloween week here on Tumble Home.
[0:45:14 – 0:45:15] Adam: Are we ready to begin?
[0:45:15 – 0:45:17] Adam: Let me have a sip and then I’ll begin the story.
[0:45:17 – 0:45:18] Adam: Yeah.
[0:45:18 – 0:45:19] Adam: It’s not too long.
[0:45:19 – 0:45:22] Adam: Like last year, we did the Bell Lake Mystery one.
[0:45:22 – 0:45:22] Adam: Right.
[0:45:22 – 0:45:24] Adam: Which was spooky in the same kind of way.
[0:45:25 – 0:45:26] Adam: That one’s a little bit longer.
[0:45:26 – 0:45:27] Erik: Did that one involve a bear?
[0:45:27 – 0:45:28] Adam: Well, they didn’t know.
[0:45:29 – 0:45:30] Adam: Something was running through their camp.
[0:45:30 – 0:45:31] Adam: Yeah.
[0:45:32 – 0:45:34] Erik: It was just a snowshoe hare.
[0:45:34 – 0:45:35] Erik: It’s probably just a hare.
[0:45:35 – 0:45:37] Erik: It’s a snowshoe hare and a grouse.
[0:45:37 – 0:45:39] Adam: And a beaver.
[0:45:40 – 0:45:46] Adam: The guy who wrote the little article and then basically just included this guy’s story in verbatim on there.
[0:45:46 – 0:45:54] Adam: So it involves Attila Ray DeBasi, the author, and then his friend Michael when they were children, which I’ll get to here.
[0:45:54 – 0:45:55] Adam: Yeah.
[0:45:55 – 0:46:09] Adam: I just want to say, too, that he got the story directly from Attila, but then he also claims he contacted Michael, who is now a prominent attorney somewhere in the city, and he confirmed the story.
[0:46:09 – 0:46:12] Adam: So there’s some journalistic integrity behind this one.
[0:46:12 – 0:46:17] Adam: At least two adults are willing to put their names on this and say, yes, this is how I remembered it happening.
[0:46:18 – 0:46:20] Adam: And I stand by our story.
[0:46:20 – 0:46:21] Adam: So here we go.
[0:46:22 – 0:46:25] Adam: This was on Star Trib, I think, in 2019.
[0:46:25 – 0:46:28] Adam: But the whole story is available without a paywall somehow.
[0:46:28 – 0:46:30] Adam: So like I said, we’ll put the link in.
[0:46:32 – 0:46:33] Adam: The night at Sturgeon Narrows.
[0:46:34 – 0:46:45] Adam: Many years ago, when I was a teenager, I had the good fortune to have been introduced to a YMCA camp named Wijiwigan, based out of Ely, Minnesota, near the Boundary Waters canoe area.
[0:46:46 – 0:46:53] Adam: The camp specialized in wilderness canoe trips that introduced 13- to 18-year-olds to wilderness settings throughout Canada and the Boundary Waters.
[0:46:54 – 0:46:58] Adam: This particular canoe trip was my second and took place in 1972.
[0:46:58 – 0:47:05] Adam: It would last 17 days with four other teenagers and led by a counselor who happened to be a University of Minnesota wrestler.
[0:47:07 – 0:47:10] Erik: They got that going for them.
[0:47:10 – 0:47:11] Adam: They got that going for them, which is nice.
[0:47:13 – 0:47:18] Adam: Our trip took place in Canada’s Quetico Provincial Park directly north of the BWCA.
[0:47:18 – 0:47:22] Adam: Canada’s canoe country was more desolate with less developed portages and campsites.
[0:47:22 – 0:47:29] Adam: It has lakes so big that you could spend a whole day paddling from one end to the other, especially if you were unfortunate enough to paddle into a wind.
[0:47:30 – 0:47:33] Adam: For the first 10 days of the trip, we were pelted with freezing rain.
[0:47:34 – 0:47:38] Adam: Even for Canada, such an unrelenting rain in July was highly unusual.
[0:47:39 – 0:47:49] Adam: Despite all of the obstacles and hardships, six of us city boys managed to paddle and portage ourselves with hundreds of pounds of food and equipment over 200 miles in our first 10 days.
[0:47:51 – 0:47:55] Adam: One thing that kept our momentum going was the goal of reaching the northernmost point of our trip.
[0:47:56 – 0:48:01] Adam: This was a lake described by others as the most beautiful and remote lake in the Quetico, Sturgeon Lake.
[0:48:02 – 0:48:06] Adam: It is almost certainly the most remote big lake.
[0:48:06 – 0:48:06] Adam: Do you agree?
[0:48:07 – 0:48:09] Adam: You’ve paddled it a little bit more than I have.
[0:48:09 – 0:48:14] Adam: You’ve gotten down to the west side of it on a different trip, but would you agree it’s one of the most beautiful?
[0:48:14 – 0:48:16] Adam: Do you have a recollection of that?
[0:48:17 – 0:48:17] Erik: Uh, I don’t know.
[0:48:18 – 0:48:18] Erik: Yeah, sure.
[0:48:18 – 0:48:21] Erik: I mean, it’s definitely the most remote.
[0:48:21 – 0:48:29] Erik: I don’t know if I’ve ever like been out on the lake and been like, yes, this is most definitely by far and away more beautiful than any of the other lakes around it.
[0:48:29 – 0:48:36] Adam: You know, it’s kind of, you know, I remember our night on blueberry Island being one of my favorites on the entire trip.
[0:48:36 – 0:48:40] Adam: And I don’t know if that was just that particular Island or because of the lake it was on.
[0:48:40 – 0:48:47] Erik: Well, I mean, that’s a unique situation where it is literally like a tiny little island in the middle of a huge bay.
[0:48:47 – 0:48:47] Adam: Yeah.
[0:48:47 – 0:48:50] Adam: And it’s all smooth rocks with cool little marinas.
[0:48:50 – 0:48:51] Adam: Yeah.
[0:48:51 – 0:48:57] Adam: Plus we had an amazing, while I was looking for ghost stories on the internet, I found like some of Eric’s trip journals I was reading through too.
[0:48:59 – 0:49:00] Adam: And that was quite the night.
[0:49:01 – 0:49:01] Adam: Black bean stew.
[0:49:01 – 0:49:02] Adam: Yeah.
[0:49:02 – 0:49:02] Adam: Yeah.
[0:49:04 – 0:49:07] Adam: One thing that kept our momentum going was getting to Sturgeon Lake.
[0:49:08 – 0:49:11] Adam: Sturgeon Lake had once been surrounded by ancient white pine.
[0:49:11 – 0:49:15] Adam: Those had been logged long ago by French-Canadian lumberjacks and immigrants.
[0:49:16 – 0:49:19] Adam: The lake had several lumber camp ruins near its shores.
[0:49:19 – 0:49:24] Adam: The thought of rummaging through ruins fed our curiosity, too, and compelled us to move on.
[0:49:33 – 0:49:37] Adam: In the middle of the day we stopped for a bite to eat and studied the map for a campsite.
[0:49:37 – 0:49:44] Adam: Soon after we portaged into Sturgeon Lake we spotted one right at the end of what looked like a river, a place named the Sturgeon Narrows.
[0:49:45 – 0:49:50] Adam: As we paddled on to our evening’s destination we were rewarded with the sun breaking through the clouds.
[0:49:51 – 0:49:54] Adam: The rain subsided and a warm wind accompanied the sunlight.
[0:49:55 – 0:49:58] Adam: The campsite was larger than most with level ground, topsoil, and pine needles.
[0:49:59 – 0:50:04] Adam: We made camp late that afternoon, taking in the ambiance of what seemed like a perfect campsite.
[0:50:05 – 0:50:07] Adam: It faced south into the expanse of the lake.
[0:50:08 – 0:50:13] Adam: That evening, feeling the stress of the last 10 days left, we made a hearty Hudson Bay stew and hot chocolate.
[0:50:14 – 0:50:18] Adam: For the first time in a long time, we were all content and getting along.
[0:50:20 – 0:50:22] Adam: At one point, I broke away from the group to do some exploring.
[0:50:23 – 0:50:27] Adam: I didn’t go far from our base camp before I discovered the foundation of a structure.
[0:50:27 – 0:50:33] Adam: I also found some old rusty tin cans and the remnant of a rusty pitchfork with two bent tongs.
[0:50:35 – 0:50:39] Adam: Pitchfork, as a side note, comes in real handy if you’re battling a Sasquatch.
[0:50:39 – 0:50:40] Erik: Yeah, well.
[0:50:41 – 0:50:44] Adam: No, actually, you want to avoid it.
[0:50:44 – 0:50:45] Adam: Reverse handy.
[0:50:46 – 0:50:48] Adam: The Bigfoot’s real handy with the pitchfork.
[0:50:49 – 0:50:50] Adam: … … … … …
[0:51:12 – 0:51:15] Adam: That night, my friend Michael and I were delegated to the two-man tent.
[0:51:15 – 0:51:18] Adam: The other tent was a spacious four-man tent, which we all preferred.
[0:51:19 – 0:51:21] Adam: We were all taking turns sleeping in the smaller tent.
[0:51:22 – 0:51:28] Adam: After turning in, we could hear the muffled conversations of our four companions some twenty feet away.
[0:51:28 – 0:51:36] Adam: After a while, a chorus of snoring emerged from their tent, which in turn gave us the confidence of dissing one of the guys named Scott in that tent.
[0:51:37 – 0:51:45] Adam: They never do note if they got a hold of Scott to okay that they’re making fun of him or to get his opinion on the matter.
[0:51:46 – 0:51:48] Adam: Scott was never consulted, apparently.
[0:51:48 – 0:51:48] Adam: Dang.
[0:51:48 – 0:51:54] Adam: I also like that he said he felt like he was being watched by another being.
[0:51:54 – 0:51:57] Adam: It doesn’t say they specifically use the word being.
[0:51:57 – 0:51:58] Adam: Or a human being.
[0:51:58 – 0:51:58] Adam: Or that.
[0:51:58 – 0:51:59] Adam: Just a being.
[0:51:59 – 0:51:59] Adam: Yeah.
[0:52:00 – 0:52:05] Adam: Scott was a loud, obnoxious guy who was fortunately more funny than annoying.
[0:52:05 – 0:52:09] Adam: He helped provide comic relief on days of the trip when the going got tough.
[0:52:10 – 0:52:17] Adam: When Michael and I were sure Scott was asleep, we started exchanging anecdotes about him, each more hilarious than the last.
[0:52:17 – 0:52:20] Adam: The stories peaked with Michael and I in a fit of hysterics.
[0:52:22 – 0:52:27] Adam: Our laughter abruptly ended when we heard a single, deafening thud from the forest.
[0:52:27 – 0:52:31] Adam: In the light from the partial moon, I could see the look on Michael’s face.
[0:52:31 – 0:52:33] Adam: What in the hell was that?
[0:52:34 – 0:52:36] Adam: I felt a wave of terror wash over my body.
[0:52:37 – 0:52:42] Adam: We laid in the tent, frozen by fear, completely tuned in to the sounds outside our thin-walled shelter.
[0:52:43 – 0:52:48] Adam: Then there was another thud, and another, and another.
[0:52:51 – 0:52:54] Adam: I looked at Michael’s face, and his expression turned from fear to a smile.
[0:52:55 – 0:52:58] Adam: Ha ha ha, Scott, he said, that’s not going to scare us.
[0:52:59 – 0:53:04] Adam: Then he added in a sarcastic tone, you’re so cool, man, so cool, ha ha ha.
[0:53:05 – 0:53:07] Adam: But Scott did not respond.
[0:53:08 – 0:53:13] Adam: The thudding continued, growing in its intensity and resonance, vibrating the ground all the way to our tent.
[0:53:14 – 0:53:19] Adam: The ground was shaking so violently that it felt like the trees around our campsite were falling over one by one.
[0:53:20 – 0:53:23] Adam: It sounded like some giant force was tearing them out of the ground, roots and all.
[0:53:25 – 0:53:29] Adam: What really caused me to panic, though, was the sound of the birds going berserk.
[0:53:30 – 0:53:36] Adam: Birds of all types, waked by the commotion, were screeching and flapping their wings as they tried to flee the area.
[0:53:37 – 0:53:40] Adam: Michael and I crammed ourselves into the very center of our little tent.
[0:53:41 – 0:53:43] Adam: The chaos around us reached deafening proportions.
[0:53:44 – 0:53:48] Adam: It was an overwhelming sound, like standing next to an enormous waterfall.
[0:53:49 – 0:53:50] Adam: Neither one of us said a word.
[0:53:50 – 0:53:53] Adam: It was understood we were not being pranked by Scott.
[0:53:54 – 0:53:59] Adam: The force of what was happening outside our tent was well beyond anything a person could produce in the middle of nowhere.
[0:54:01 – 0:54:04] Adam: To this day, I have never been so terrified in my life.
[0:54:04 – 0:54:06] Adam: My head flooded with the idea of death.
[0:54:07 – 0:54:10] Adam: In my delirious state of mind, I started a conversation with God.
[0:54:10 – 0:54:16] Adam: I asked him to forgive me for all the people I may have hurt up until that point in my short 14 years of life.
[0:54:18 – 0:54:21] Adam: Another thought I had was that I hadn’t even kissed a girl yet.
[0:54:22 – 0:54:26] Adam: But the most painful image was of my mother receiving news of my grisly death.
[0:54:27 – 0:54:29] Adam: Then, without warning, it stopped.
[0:54:30 – 0:54:30] Adam: Silence.
[0:54:32 – 0:54:36] Adam: The night air was empty of all sounds, not even the wind.
[0:54:38 – 0:54:41] Adam: With our full attention focused on the quiet, we turned to each other.
[0:54:41 – 0:54:46] Adam: In whispered voices, we weighed the idea of making a run for it to where our buddies in the college wrestler were.
[0:54:47 – 0:54:50] Adam: Besides, they must be awake with a horror show playing out around us.
[0:54:52 – 0:54:53] Adam: Then we heard something else.
[0:54:54 – 0:54:58] Adam: From the waters south of our campsite, voices burst into laughter and song.
[0:54:59 – 0:55:03] Adam: The clarity of those voices was so sharp that I could hear they were having a great time.
[0:55:04 – 0:55:11] Adam: As I listened, I also realized that the speaking and singing were all in French, and they were getting louder.
[0:55:11 – 0:55:15] Adam: Whoever the voices belonged to were paddling some kind of boat towards our campsite.
[0:55:16 – 0:55:18] Adam: It didn’t take long for them to arrive.
[0:55:19 – 0:55:22] Adam: Raucous laughter ensued as they arrived.
[0:55:22 – 0:55:28] Adam: We listened for footsteps, but instead we heard the clanging of the pots and pans we’d placed on our food packs as a bear alarm.
[0:55:29 – 0:55:33] Adam: Next we heard our food packs and our personal packs being ripped and shredded apart.
[0:55:34 – 0:55:39] Adam: We lay there, too frightened to move, until a voice came from our buddy’s tent, blurted through the noise.
[0:55:40 – 0:55:42] Adam: With that single sound, the chaos stopped.
[0:55:42 – 0:55:47] Adam: Michael and I assessed the situation, wondering if it was time to make the run for the other tent.
[0:55:47 – 0:55:49] Adam: I yelled, Jim, are you awake, man?
[0:55:51 – 0:55:51] Adam: No response.
[0:55:53 – 0:55:56] Adam: We exploded out of the tent and ran to where our companions were.
[0:55:56 – 0:56:00] Adam: As we did, Michael shined his flashlight around us, looking for whatever had terrified us.
[0:56:01 – 0:56:06] Adam: The beam managed to penetrate about six feet of the darkness, keeping us blind to whatever it was.
[0:56:07 – 0:56:15] Adam: In a single motion, we unzipped the tent and dove into safety, landing on four very asleep guys who suddenly found themselves abruptly awoken by two frantic kids.
[0:56:16 – 0:56:20] Adam: The voice we’d heard just moments before had been one of them talking in his sleep.
[0:56:21 – 0:56:25] Adam: I landed on the wrestler, whose face I unintentionally bounced into the ground.
[0:56:26 – 0:56:30] Adam: Punching, kicking, and threats ensued, with all four guys wide awake and enraged.
[0:56:30 – 0:56:33] Adam: They didn’t believe a word we said, and they threw us out of their tent.
[0:56:34 – 0:56:40] Adam: Outside, Michael and I stood for a minute trying to see anything we could with this flashlight, but there was nothing.
[0:56:41 – 0:56:45] Adam: We slowly walked back to our tent, then we stood for a bit listening before we climbed back in.
[0:56:47 – 0:56:51] Adam: In the tent, we talked about what had happened, trying to explain it or rationalize it.
[0:56:51 – 0:56:53] Adam: Soon Michael dozed off with a slight snore.
[0:56:54 – 0:56:57] Adam: I lay motionless, my ears tuned to our surroundings.
[0:56:58 – 0:57:01] Adam: After some time in the far distance, the thumping returned.
[0:57:01 – 0:57:03] Adam: It was a little slower with each stomp.
[0:57:04 – 0:57:08] Adam: As I listened, it took on a soothing quality and soon I was asleep.
[0:57:10 – 0:57:16] Adam: The next morning we woke up to four really angry guys including our counselor who had a freshly cut lip.
[0:57:17 – 0:57:19] Adam: As for the campsite there was no evidence of any damage.
[0:57:20 – 0:57:23] Adam: Everything including the trees around us looked just as we’d left them the night before.
[0:57:25 – 0:57:31] Adam: Michael and I tried to explain the events of that evening, but were met with disbelief, anger, and eventually deaf ears.
[0:57:32 – 0:57:33] Adam: No one believed our story.
[0:57:35 – 0:57:37] Adam: Later that day, we paddled away from our campsite.
[0:57:37 – 0:57:39] Adam: It was a perfect, windless summer morning.
[0:57:40 – 0:57:42] Adam: The water was smooth as a sheet of ice.
[0:57:43 – 0:57:47] Adam: As we crossed the water, one of the guys yelled, What the loon bleep is that?
[0:57:49 – 0:57:50] Adam: we all turned back to look.
[0:57:51 – 0:57:58] Adam: A single tall birch tree surrounded by shrubs with something rustling within their leaves was swaying back and forth.
[0:57:59 – 0:58:02] Adam: Everything else stood silent and still on that perfect summer morning.
[0:58:03 – 0:58:04] Adam: The end.
[0:58:06 – 0:58:07] Adam: What the loon bleep was that?
[0:58:08 – 0:58:10] Erik: Cue the X-Files theme once again.
[0:58:10 – 0:58:11] Erik: Yeah.
[0:58:16 – 0:58:19] Erik: Yeah, the single shaking tree after they left.
[0:58:19 – 0:58:26] Adam: I remember somebody’s story previously on the show about a wildly shaking tree on the shore that was going to fall on their canoe for sure.
[0:58:28 – 0:58:29] Erik: Yeah, I don’t know.
[0:58:29 – 0:58:35] Erik: I feel like, again, we’ve maybe talked about this story in the past, but I don’t know if we’ve read it in such detail.
[0:58:35 – 0:58:37] Adam: Even if we haven’t, it would be worth it.
[0:58:37 – 0:58:40] Adam: Like Over the Garden Wall, it would be worth reading this story every Halloween.
[0:58:41 – 0:58:42] Erik: It’s always worth revisiting.
[0:58:42 – 0:58:46] Erik: The fact that there’s two people that both corroborate the story.
[0:58:47 – 0:58:56] Adam: They both swear on their mother’s graves that they thought their mothers were going to get horrible, grisly news of their deaths, that this really happened.
[0:58:58 – 0:59:02] Adam: Yeah, if it’s just one kid that claims this happened, I don’t buy it at all.
[0:59:02 – 0:59:03] Adam: Tough.
[0:59:03 – 0:59:04] Adam: It was a bad dream.
[0:59:05 – 0:59:11] Adam: Two guys who fled their tent and swear that this happened, even in their adult years, you know.
[0:59:13 – 0:59:29] Adam: still who you know i believe it quite a bit more that it comes from two people rather than one plus it happened in sturgeon arrows which is like famously haunted by french ghouls yeah that love to sing and thump on their boats at night so uh there’s something to it up there on the malayan river
[0:59:30 – 0:59:32] Erik: Yes, the French aspect is really creepy.
[0:59:32 – 0:59:33] Adam: I like that, yeah.
[0:59:34 – 0:59:36] Erik: The fact that they were having a good time, too.
[0:59:36 – 0:59:38] Adam: Yeah, they were laughing and, like, joking around.
[0:59:38 – 0:59:43] Adam: And then they called in the French ghouls came in and fed off that energy, perhaps.
[0:59:43 – 0:59:43] Erik: Yeah.
[0:59:43 – 0:59:48] Adam: That they felt like they could feel it, like, vibrating the ground underneath them.
[0:59:48 – 0:59:50] Erik: Yeah, and the ripping of the trees.
[0:59:50 – 0:59:52] Adam: Yeah, like, they felt like trees were being ripped up.
[0:59:53 – 0:59:56] Erik: But then nothing was amiss, like, physically, physically.
[0:59:57 – 0:59:58] Adam: Yeah, like nothing.
[0:59:58 – 0:59:58] Adam: Everything’s fine.
[0:59:59 – 1:00:02] Adam: Other than the counselor’s poor face that they jumped on in the night.
[1:00:03 – 1:00:08] Adam: I would be mad too if a kid had jumped on me in the night and busted my lip.
[1:00:08 – 1:00:10] Erik: Yeah, who would you prefer to be in that scenario?
[1:00:10 – 1:00:13] Erik: The snoozing foursome who didn’t get to experience it?
[1:00:13 – 1:00:15] Adam: Oh, I would want to experience it.
[1:00:15 – 1:00:18] Erik: Yeah, even if it did mean a few minutes of terror?
[1:00:18 – 1:00:27] Adam: Yeah, I mean, you know, and I guess we have the benefit of knowing that they lived and both had successful careers and were able to tell this story.
[1:00:27 – 1:00:30] Adam: And I would assume some would laugh about it at this point.
[1:00:30 – 1:00:34] Erik: Yeah, if it meant that I got to eventually become a successful lawyer, yeah, I’m totally in.
[1:00:35 – 1:00:38] Adam: But, I mean, you know, they lived, you know, to tell the tale.
[1:00:38 – 1:00:43] Adam: So, yeah, I’d want to, knowing that they lived through it, it wasn’t like, oh, they just disappeared.
[1:00:43 – 1:00:46] Adam: Like, then, no, I wouldn’t want to experience that phenomenon.
[1:00:46 – 1:00:52] Adam: But that they lived and, you know, they seem to be okay about it now.
[1:00:52 – 1:00:55] Adam: It sounds like a crazy experience to have.
[1:00:55 – 1:01:00] Adam: As you know, I think, and anybody listening to the show knows, I really get a kick out of this kind of stuff.
[1:01:01 – 1:01:28] Erik: Well, you have a pinpoint point in your experience in the Boundary Waters where, unfortunately, you were the only person to experience something not as intense as this, but something that you believe you experienced that you don’t have anybody else to, at the very least, be like, hey, I know a successful lawyer who will back me up on this.
[1:01:29 – 1:01:29] Adam: You don’t have that.
[1:01:30 – 1:01:33] Erik: The Red Orb is your experience and yours alone.
[1:01:33 – 1:01:35] Adam: I really wish you had seen it.
[1:01:36 – 1:01:37] Adam: I do too.
[1:01:37 – 1:01:39] Erik: Actually, now I know the answer to that question.
[1:01:40 – 1:01:44] Erik: Yes, I wish I was not asleep in my hammock the night you experienced the Red Orb.
[1:01:44 – 1:01:46] Erik: I very much wish I was on the beach with you.
[1:01:46 – 1:01:50] Adam: I’m glad I took a nap and then stayed up late listening to Dark Side of the Moon.
[1:01:52 – 1:01:58] Adam: I feel like with these kinds of things, I like watching Ghost Hunters and I like these stories and
[1:01:59 – 1:02:14] Adam: I don’t know what I really believe is the cause of all this, but I do believe that having an open mind about the phenomenon, whatever it is, you know…
[1:02:15 – 1:02:16] Adam: draws that to you in some way.
[1:02:16 – 1:02:29] Adam: The people who are out there just being like, it’s all a bunch of malarkey or whatever, they’re not going to see a red orb or feel the ground vibrate and feel like trees are being ripped up by French ghouls in the night.
[1:02:30 – 1:02:37] Adam: Whatever that happens to be, obviously you have to somewhat believe it’s possible to actually experience that.
[1:02:37 – 1:02:43] Adam: Very few times do you hear a story where somebody is like, I don’t believe it even happened.
[1:02:43 – 1:02:44] Adam: I was there, but I don’t believe it was real.
[1:02:44 – 1:02:45] Adam: I must have dreamt it or whatever.
[1:02:46 – 1:02:47] Adam: You’ll get people like that.
[1:02:49 – 1:03:00] Adam: But I think there’s something about being open-minded to that reality isn’t everything we can experience and touch and see in this dimension.
[1:03:01 – 1:03:08] Adam: Something about being open-minded to that there’s more to reality than we can experience as humans that will make it more likely you’d be
[1:03:09 – 1:03:09] Erik: It’s helpful.
[1:03:10 – 1:03:17] Adam: You’d be, like, your sensors would be tuned in enough to, like, receive the French ghouls when they visit your campsite.
[1:03:17 – 1:03:17] Adam: Yeah.
[1:03:18 – 1:03:19] Adam: That’s how I would say it.
[1:03:19 – 1:03:33] Erik: Yeah, I feel like I find myself typically on the side of not wanting to believe, and that’s probably why I haven’t experienced anything like this, which, you know, who knows what would have happened the night of the Red Orb if I would have been awake.
[1:03:33 – 1:03:34] Erik: Yeah, maybe wouldn’t have been there.
[1:03:35 – 1:03:36] Erik: Maybe my…
[1:03:37 – 1:03:47] Erik: My skepticism or my being closed off to a belief that something like that could happen would have blocked off that experience for you as well.
[1:03:47 – 1:03:48] Erik: I don’t know.
[1:03:48 – 1:03:52] Erik: Or maybe it would have been the moment that brought me around to believing… Maybe.
[1:03:52 – 1:03:53] Adam: Everybody’s got to have that first thing.
[1:03:54 – 1:04:03] Adam: I mean, I never had anything weird happen as far as paranormal phenomenon in childhood or anything.
[1:04:03 – 1:04:03] Adam: It was…
[1:04:05 – 1:04:18] Adam: I’ve had a few little weird things in my life where you’re like, I don’t know about that, but that Red Orb story, I still have a crystal clear memory of that whole night and something I’ll never forget and that I’ll never be able to explain.
[1:04:21 – 1:04:22] Adam: So I don’t know.
[1:04:22 – 1:04:29] Adam: I think in the end that that has made me more open-minded to other sorts of phenomenon, what have you, but what is it?
[1:04:29 – 1:04:30] Adam: We’ll never know.
[1:04:33 – 1:04:41] Adam: It makes it really fun to hear stories about it, though, because I believe these guys.
[1:04:41 – 1:04:42] Erik: Oh, I don’t not believe them.
[1:04:43 – 1:04:45] Erik: I don’t know what they would have to gain.
[1:04:46 – 1:04:51] Adam: It was like what the doctor says to the professor in Night of the Demon.
[1:04:52 – 1:04:56] Adam: He truly believes that this happened to him.
[1:04:57 – 1:05:22] Adam: yeah but that’s all that matters so that you know then those people get labeled you know but you’re still criminally insane insane sane is that where the sample comes from i was wondering about that too i thought about it in the avalanches i don’t really think it is but i don’t think it is either uh because i think that’s criminally insane i think that’s from dexter that clip um but they might have had multiple criminally insane clips that they used in that sample what makes him a criminal
[1:05:23 – 1:05:23] Adam: I don’t know.
[1:05:24 – 1:05:27] Adam: Are they blaming him for the death of all his students?
[1:05:27 – 1:05:28] Erik: Yeah, there’s a lot of questions there.
[1:05:29 – 1:05:32] Adam: Nobody was actually hurt in this story up on the Sturgeon Arrows.
[1:05:33 – 1:05:40] Adam: I feel like there’s been other stories where people report hearing French singing in the Sturgeon Arrows, which is probably why…
[1:05:41 – 1:05:45] Adam: I was reading this this morning, and I was like, I think this would be a good candidate for a story for tonight’s show.
[1:05:45 – 1:05:46] Adam: Yeah.
[1:05:46 – 1:05:55] Adam: But I feel like we have told this story, but we both took time listening back on some of our other Halloween episodes.
[1:05:55 – 1:05:55] Adam: Yeah.
[1:05:57 – 1:06:00] Adam: We never read the story in full, at least, is what we determined.
[1:06:00 – 1:06:01] Adam: I’m glad we were able to.
[1:06:01 – 1:06:04] Erik: Some would be like, well, yeah, you guys did this in 120 or whatever.
[1:06:04 – 1:06:07] Adam: This is why we need a Wikipedia for Tumble.
[1:06:07 – 1:06:09] Adam: Keep us honest.
[1:06:09 – 1:06:17] Erik: J-Sweet Pudence did seem like there was a little light attempt at starting a concept along those lines.
[1:06:17 – 1:06:28] Adam: Yeah, and you were just talking about, you know, you were listening back to some old episodes, and it’s really fun to, like, hear all the nonsense and, like, well, the first mention of the pizza biter or what have you.
[1:06:28 – 1:06:29] Adam: Mm-hmm.
[1:06:29 – 1:06:32] Adam: Jouer de Poisson was saying the same kind of concept there.
[1:06:33 – 1:06:33] Adam: It’s…
[1:06:33 – 1:06:41] Adam: It’s interesting now with 270 episodes in the bank out there for the public to listen to.
[1:06:41 – 1:06:42] Adam: The public can hear this?
[1:06:42 – 1:06:50] Adam: All the little threads of continuity that go through the story of Tumble Home from the beginning up until right now.
[1:06:51 – 1:06:58] Adam: But I’ve been here for all of them, as have you, and there’s a lot of things about Tumble Home I just simply don’t remember.
[1:06:58 – 1:07:01] Adam: Believe it or not, we’re not scripted, and therefore…
[1:07:02 – 1:07:04] Erik: Even if it was scripted, I don’t remember.
[1:07:04 – 1:07:07] Adam: Because it’s off the cuff and there’s so much tumble home out there at this point.
[1:07:07 – 1:07:10] Adam: I can’t remember everything that happened on here, what order it happened in.
[1:07:10 – 1:07:11] Erik: Yeah, for sure.
[1:07:11 – 1:07:12] Erik: Certainly not the order.
[1:07:13 – 1:07:14] Erik: I’m an old man.
[1:07:14 – 1:07:16] Erik: I’m feeble-minded at this point.
[1:07:16 – 1:07:17] Adam: Feeble-minded.
[1:07:17 – 1:07:24] Adam: I’m lucky if I remember to put my boots on the right feet this morning, which I did.
[1:07:25 – 1:07:49] Adam: what do you think though like what could it be like let’s try and like describe how would the other guys in the other tent not hear it at all where they really just it sounded like they had had a couple rough days of paddling and uh everybody was maybe really tuckered out and you can sleep through a thunderstorm uh with lightning and thunder right outside your door if you’re really that tired so um it’s possible that the four guys in the other tent just slept through it and it did happen
[1:07:50 – 1:07:56] Erik: But even during like a crazy thunderstorm, do the birds really get going crazy?
[1:07:56 – 1:07:58] Adam: How are the night birds going nuts like that?
[1:07:58 – 1:08:01] Erik: No, I think the birds would just be like, oh, crap, it’s raining.
[1:08:01 – 1:08:02] Erik: I’m used to this.
[1:08:02 – 1:08:03] Erik: I know what a storm is.
[1:08:03 – 1:08:04] Erik: I’m just going to hunker down.
[1:08:04 – 1:08:06] Erik: I’m not going to like start chirping and going crazy.
[1:08:06 – 1:08:18] Adam: This is the opposite of the Bell Lake mystery from last year in which when the footsteps were heard in the camp that the birds and everything, like the crickets and the birds and everything got real quiet, like dead silent as if something was, you know,
[1:08:19 – 1:08:39] Erik: disturbing them whereas this one it seemed like it was agitating and the the birds and wildlife were like a part of it yeah i don’t know to have something of that magnitude by their description occur without four other people who seemingly were at very close proximity not wake up at all
[1:08:41 – 1:08:41] Erik: Yeah, it’s…
[1:08:41 – 1:08:44] Adam: But that two of them did experience this.
[1:08:44 – 1:08:48] Adam: Is it like a localized… Earthquake?
[1:08:48 – 1:08:52] Adam: A localized little haunting that only affected their tent?
[1:08:52 – 1:08:53] Erik: But the…
[1:08:56 – 1:09:15] Erik: supposed French voyagers visiting like yeah that’s an added thing where it’s like okay maybe there was like some weird shift in the ground where like some trees shook or whatever yeah on its own yeah maybe but then if there’s also this additional laughing crew of what sounds like a group of paddlers coming into your campsite
[1:09:16 – 1:09:26] Erik: There is a knocking of pots and pans like for two people to experience that is I don’t know if there’s if I could come up with any kind of an explanation for that.
[1:09:26 – 1:09:31] Adam: There’s another side story that’s in the article in which they’re camping there and they’re exhausted, had a long day.
[1:09:31 – 1:09:38] Adam: And then this other crew of people speaking French like showed up and had a huge bonfire and appeared to be doing like, quote, ritualistic dances.
[1:09:39 – 1:09:41] Adam: And that they just were like, we’re uncomfortable.
[1:09:41 – 1:09:42] Adam: We’re so tired.
[1:09:42 – 1:09:44] Adam: We just had to like crawl in our tents and go to sleep.
[1:09:45 – 1:09:49] Adam: Didn’t confront these people who like just camped very close to them in the Sturgeon Narrows.
[1:09:49 – 1:09:52] Adam: But again, like singing and chanting French people.
[1:09:52 – 1:09:54] Erik: I feel like I remember that story.
[1:09:54 – 1:09:56] Adam: I think that’s the original story I heard.
[1:09:56 – 1:10:01] Adam: And then this is sort of just like another, you know, another version of that tale, which is…
[1:10:02 – 1:10:04] Adam: Close enough, but, like, seems to be its own thing also.
[1:10:04 – 1:10:09] Erik: Makes me want to – maybe we probably need to get back up there and spend the night.
[1:10:09 – 1:10:17] Adam: Well, I would like to do the entirety of the Malign because the way our route went, you know, I didn’t get to do – The Hunter Island loop.
[1:10:17 – 1:10:21] Adam: I didn’t do, you know, Kawishui or really most of Sturgeon.
[1:10:21 – 1:10:21] Adam: Yeah.
[1:10:21 – 1:10:25] Adam: We kind of cut down and then back up through Sturgeon, so –
[1:10:25 – 1:10:32] Adam: It would be fun to just do the fall chain up and do the entirety of the Malign and, yeah, just do the Hunter Island.
[1:10:32 – 1:10:32] Adam: Yeah.
[1:10:32 – 1:10:34] Adam: I would love to do that route.
[1:10:34 – 1:10:41] Adam: If we’re ever going to do another long Quetico trip where time wasn’t really an issue, I think the Hunter Island route would be fun.
[1:10:41 – 1:10:43] Erik: Although, getting to hitchhike into Atacocan was always…
[1:10:44 – 1:10:45] Erik: This is a fun little cherry on top.
[1:10:45 – 1:10:50] Adam: It was a highlight, and I know you had hyped it up, and it was definitely worth the effort to get up there.
[1:10:51 – 1:11:01] Adam: It’s fun to go and resupply and see another town like that, but it would be cool if you were somehow able to pack smart, just do the whole entire island loop and maybe just do one resupply in Ely.
[1:11:02 – 1:11:02] Erik: Yeah.
[1:11:02 – 1:11:04] Erik: We wouldn’t get to buy funny cheese, though.
[1:11:04 – 1:11:06] Adam: Or marshmallow bars.
[1:11:06 – 1:11:13] Erik: Or funny marshmallow bars that try and warm us up on the frozen shores of the Quetico River.
[1:11:14 – 1:11:26] Erik: The other story, just to lightly finish up on the story that you just read that I was re-listening to, the start of the whole creepy, unexplained…
[1:11:27 – 1:11:51] Erik: uh saga that’s been uh included in this whole podcast on an almost yearly basis was uh the first story we told was of the hatch that’s right classic hatch story which uh we don’t i don’t think we came to any conclusions on our first telling of the story yeah that’s not paranormal so much as just like very creepy like real physical creepiness
[1:11:51 – 1:12:02] Erik: Yeah, and I think, I don’t know if this is any kind of an explanation, but it could be some kind of a sewage infrastructure.
[1:12:02 – 1:12:04] Erik: I assume it is.
[1:12:04 – 1:12:05] Erik: Something that we saw.
[1:12:05 – 1:12:08] Adam: They have concrete bridges in a village right there.
[1:12:09 – 1:12:13] Erik: And we did say during that story that the water was extremely low.
[1:12:14 – 1:12:21] Erik: So it could be like a water intake thing or… Yeah, but it was a hatch that you would open from the outside, not… Yeah, I know.
[1:12:21 – 1:12:23] Adam: I guess could you probably… Why would you want to open it from the inside?
[1:12:23 – 1:12:25] Adam: You’d be crushed by the water pressure of Lac La Croix.
[1:12:26 – 1:12:29] Adam: Still to this day makes no sense whatsoever what we saw there.
[1:12:29 – 1:12:37] Adam: The water would have to be quite a bit lower for you to access that hatch, in which case… That has some semblance of like a potential explanation.
[1:12:37 – 1:12:39] Adam: Yeah, like it looks human built, but why?
[1:12:40 – 1:12:45] Adam: Like that’s the creepy part is why is this out in the middle of the lake in this river, you know, mouth?
[1:12:46 – 1:12:46] Erik: I don’t like it.
[1:12:47 – 1:12:47] Erik: I still don’t know.
[1:12:47 – 1:12:52] Erik: But at least, you know, it’s a physical thing that you could probably go back and like find if you absolutely had to.
[1:12:53 – 1:12:56] Erik: This story, though, it’s like they woke up in the morning and everything was normal.
[1:12:56 – 1:12:59] Erik: Like that’s even scarier kind of.
[1:12:59 – 1:13:07] Adam: Yeah, and the other guys in their party didn’t experience this whatsoever and were borderline mad at them for ambushing them in their sleep.
[1:13:07 – 1:13:09] Adam: Yeah.
[1:13:09 – 1:13:11] Adam: And definitely was not Scott messing with them.
[1:13:12 – 1:13:15] Erik: Well, why else would you zip open somebody’s tent and jump into it?
[1:13:15 – 1:13:22] Erik: At the very least, this group of four guys who were sleeping must have been like, well, that’s kind of crazy that they would feel the need to…
[1:13:24 – 1:13:50] Adam: jump into our tent in the middle of the night like they must have been spooked by something yeah so i guess i kind of have to believe them a little bit ripping out the packs too like it is it’s not just like one one thing that happened it was like multiple different entities of phenomenon experienced and but none of it actually happened at least in their space and time that could easily be pointed at in terms of a physical disturbance
[1:13:51 – 1:13:52] Adam: I don’t know.
[1:13:52 – 1:13:53] Adam: That’s very odd.
[1:13:53 – 1:13:59] Adam: I could see, like, if you watch the Ghost Hunter shows, it’s like there’s either intelligent haunts or there’s residual haunts.
[1:13:59 – 1:14:14] Adam: And, like, the singing French, like, ghouls, I could see that just being, like, a residual of, like, every night at midnight or every full moon, you know, for whatever reason, you can hear the French ghouls singing on the narrows of Sturgeon.
[1:14:15 – 1:14:22] Adam: And that would just be like a thing that happens on a loop that is unexplainable, like how it is being experienced in our reality.
[1:14:23 – 1:14:33] Adam: But yeah, it seemed like they were both experiencing that and like a paranormal bear attack and or a paranormal storm of some sort.
[1:14:34 – 1:14:36] Adam: The birds were a part of it.
[1:14:37 – 1:14:42] Adam: This is like a multifaceted spook fest happening out there.
[1:14:43 – 1:14:48] Adam: And none of it really makes any sense in that, like, when you put it all together like that, that’s what makes it so inexplicable.
[1:14:49 – 1:14:52] Adam: If it was just one of those things, it would be a little bit more understandable.
[1:14:52 – 1:14:54] Adam: But very interesting.
[1:14:55 – 1:14:56] Adam: Very interesting.
[1:14:56 – 1:15:01] Adam: We’re going to take a brief break here, and we’ll be back in just a moment.
[1:15:03 – 1:15:04] Adam: All right.
[1:15:04 – 1:15:05] Adam: All right.
[1:15:05 – 1:15:07] Adam: Criminally insane.
[1:15:07 – 1:15:08] Erik: Criminally insane.
[1:15:08 – 1:15:08] Erik: Sane, sane, sane.
[1:15:08 – 1:15:09] Erik: Sane, sane.
[1:15:10 – 1:15:32] Erik: yeah it’s the spooky season we hope that our uh little story that we shared and all of the uh previous backlogs of spooky stories i don’t know if there’s like a way to like collect them tagged yeah we should have been tagging those like yeah spooky story as the extra spooky ones because there’s probably like five or six total that we’ve got back there in the
[1:15:32 – 1:15:41] Adam: I went back and re-listened to the Bell Lake Mystery this morning after over the garden wall, but before I went and ran all the gas out of the lawnmower.
[1:15:41 – 1:15:41] Adam: It was quite the day.
[1:15:41 – 1:15:42] Adam: That was pretty spooky.
[1:15:42 – 1:15:43] Adam: Yeah.
[1:15:43 – 1:15:47] Erik: I showed up and it was just a lawnmower running with nobody attending it in the yard.
[1:15:47 – 1:15:47] Erik: Yeah.
[1:15:48 – 1:15:52] Adam: I had the vice grip holding the handle down, so I keep running.
[1:15:52 – 1:15:53] Adam: Just trying to get the gas.
[1:15:53 – 1:15:57] Adam: Those things, it sips the gas, especially when it’s not actually mowing anything.
[1:15:58 – 1:15:59] Erik: Just mowing air.
[1:15:59 – 1:16:00] Erik: Mowing air.
[1:16:00 – 1:16:10] Erik: But yeah, we are happy that we got another little mild spooky tale in with everything else that we had to say.
[1:16:10 – 1:16:12] Erik: It’s just sort of an in-between episode.
[1:16:12 – 1:16:13] Erik: I don’t know if there’s a…
[1:16:14 – 1:16:15] Adam: It’s a Halloween episode.
[1:16:15 – 1:16:19] Adam: It’s our annual Halloween episode, and I always like this sort of stuff.
[1:16:20 – 1:16:22] Adam: We’re not going to subject you to live EVP sessions.
[1:16:23 – 1:16:28] Adam: We’re going to stay up until midnight and see if you can help us find evidence in the audio.
[1:16:28 – 1:16:31] Adam: We’re not a ghost show, but on Halloween, we sure as hell are.
[1:16:32 – 1:16:35] Adam: I’m moving into the Moscow Mule.
[1:16:35 – 1:16:43] Adam: So thank you, Amateur Camper, dear friend of the show, for the delicious art supplies this evening here in the tumble shed.
[1:16:44 – 1:16:46] Adam: We’re going to get out of here, I think.
[1:16:46 – 1:16:48] Adam: Hopefully we didn’t scare anybody too badly.
[1:16:48 – 1:16:52] Adam: But the link is in the show notes if anybody wants to go and read that story for themselves.
[1:16:55 – 1:16:58] Adam: We do have a post up on the subreddit.
[1:16:59 – 1:17:00] Adam: Boat Show is back.
[1:17:00 – 1:17:03] Adam: Boat Show’s back.
[1:17:03 – 1:17:04] Adam: That’s something we haven’t done.
[1:17:05 – 1:17:10] Adam: Again, that’s another single digits or, well, double digits episode kind of show.
[1:17:10 – 1:17:13] Adam: Way back in the day, the original Boat Show.
[1:17:14 – 1:17:36] Adam: first season redux of the boat show we talked about it last week it’s still live and uh the timing is pretty good on this one to uh get us into some boat content in november november for the gales boat content the gales we hope you don’t have too many gales when you’re talking about your canoe stories but it looked like there’s quite a few comments on the thread already but uh
[1:17:36 – 1:17:46] Adam: We always like to give those threads a little bit of extra time just to give people time to, you know, put some thought into it and tell us why they love their boat.
[1:17:46 – 1:17:47] Erik: Yeah, exactly.
[1:17:47 – 1:17:50] Erik: And, yes, subreddit, tumblehomecast.com.
[1:17:51 – 1:17:54] Erik: Our Tumble Homecast and Tumble Homecast at Gmail.
[1:17:54 – 1:17:55] Erik: Let’s get an email in.
[1:17:55 – 1:17:56] Erik: Come on.
[1:17:56 – 1:18:00] Erik: I haven’t really had a real proper email in a long time.
[1:18:00 – 1:18:02] Adam: I’ve gotten a couple.
[1:18:02 – 1:18:07] Adam: You can attach an audio track onto an email, too, if you want to do the old-timey voicemail.
[1:18:07 – 1:18:08] Erik: I think the voicemail’s dead at this point.
[1:18:08 – 1:18:12] Adam: But you could record your own voicemail and then email it to us.
[1:18:12 – 1:18:13] Adam: Yes, you could do that.
[1:18:13 – 1:18:14] Adam: And that’s an acceptable form.
[1:18:15 – 1:18:16] Adam: And who knows?
[1:18:16 – 1:18:17] Adam: You could be the next cold open.
[1:18:17 – 1:18:19] Adam: You could be the Mulder and the Scully.
[1:18:20 – 1:18:21] Erik: Who knows?
[1:18:21 – 1:18:21] Erik: Or Spinny.
[1:18:22 – 1:18:23] Adam: Or Spinny.
[1:18:23 – 1:18:23] Adam: Poor Spinny.
[1:18:23 – 1:18:24] Adam: Poor Spinny.
[1:18:24 – 1:18:26] Adam: Ain’t coming back, are you, Spinny?
[1:18:26 – 1:18:27] Adam: He said he was coming back.
[1:18:27 – 1:18:28] Erik: Rip Spinny.
[1:18:30 – 1:18:31] Adam: Now he’s a member of R.I.P.S.
[1:18:32 – 1:18:33] Adam: and T.A.P.S.
[1:18:33 – 1:18:33] Adam: R.I.P.S.
[1:18:33 – 1:18:34] Erik: and T.A.P.S.
[1:18:34 – 1:18:36] Erik: We’re looking forward to getting into some boats.
[1:18:36 – 1:18:39] Erik: That’s going to be for sure a couple of weeks of content.
[1:18:39 – 1:18:39] Erik: Absolutely.
[1:18:39 – 1:18:41] Erik: Can’t wait to talk about boats.
[1:18:41 – 1:18:43] Erik: I’m excited for boats.
[1:18:43 – 1:18:48] Erik: We’ll see how many more of these shed records we’ve got in us before things get too cold.
[1:18:48 – 1:18:51] Erik: We’ve been a freakishly warm fall.
[1:18:51 – 1:18:58] Adam: Yeah, we haven’t had to turn on the heater yet, but it’s over there beside the potting mix and the old bike.
[1:18:58 – 1:19:03] Erik: Yeah, it’s not our last record in here, but, you know, those days are numbered and we will keep recording.
[1:19:03 – 1:19:08] Erik: It’s just a matter of where we decide to record next.
[1:19:08 – 1:19:11] Erik: But next week we will be back with some boat show content.
[1:19:11 – 1:19:12] Erik: We’ll have to probably get in here.
[1:19:14 – 1:19:16] Adam: We’re going to be recording at the airport.
[1:19:16 – 1:19:18] Erik: I was going to say, are we going to bring the field mic?
[1:19:18 – 1:19:22] Adam: Yeah, we should just record at the VIP lounge at Thunder Bay International.
[1:19:22 – 1:19:23] Adam: Sure, yeah.
[1:19:23 – 1:19:24] Erik: At four in the morning?
[1:19:24 – 1:19:25] Adam: We have access to that, yeah.
[1:19:25 – 1:19:26] Erik: Yeah, we get access.
[1:19:26 – 1:19:27] Erik: We’re Americans.
[1:19:27 – 1:19:28] Adam: We’re first-class Americans.
[1:19:28 – 1:19:43] Erik: First-class Americans, just a couple of days removed from what surely will be a swift and decisive victory for whoever you want to be the next president of this great country.
[1:19:45 – 1:20:10] Adam: i’m sure it’s just gonna be over too after election day yeah no we don’t have to talk about it anymore we will all all 300 million of us will get to ride off into the sunset i’m a little nervous about crossing the border so soon after in a big election like that but i’m sure we’ll be fine like you said yeah we’re americans we can do whatever we want yeah we’ve got uh what like the 12th most powerful passport in the world
[1:20:10 – 1:20:11] Adam: That’s only 12th, huh?
[1:20:12 – 1:20:13] Adam: I don’t even have a passport.
[1:20:13 – 1:20:14] Adam: I just have the enhanced ID.
[1:20:14 – 1:20:15] Adam: I hope that still counts.
[1:20:15 – 1:20:16] Erik: Oh, well, then you’re even better.
[1:20:16 – 1:20:18] Adam: They might let me out, but they won’t let me back in.
[1:20:19 – 1:20:23] Erik: I know some secret trails on the north side of Rose Lake.
[1:20:23 – 1:20:25] Adam: Yeah, we can figure our way back.
[1:20:25 – 1:20:31] Erik: That dirt bike up on the top of the Palisade overlooking Arrow probably does need some gas stabilizer for the winter.
[1:20:32 – 1:20:34] Adam: We’ve got to probably work on the carburetor on that, too.
[1:20:34 – 1:20:34] Erik: Yeah.
[1:20:35 – 1:20:37] Erik: You work on that, I will meet you at the Arrow Narrows.
[1:20:38 – 1:20:38] Adam: Perfect.
[1:20:38 – 1:20:40] Adam: And there’s no ghouls in that narrows.
[1:20:40 – 1:20:42] Adam: That one’s peaceful narrows.
[1:20:42 – 1:20:43] Erik: Yes.
[1:20:43 – 1:20:50] Adam: I was thinking about doing like a goatee to really capture the ghost hunting, the ghost hunter costume, but I also don’t want any trouble at the border.
[1:20:51 – 1:20:53] Adam: So I’m just going to leave my facial hair alone, I think, before this trip.
[1:20:53 – 1:20:55] Erik: Well, you could do a goatee and then trim that up.
[1:20:55 – 1:20:57] Erik: And shave it down to a mustache.
[1:20:57 – 1:20:57] Erik: Yeah.
[1:20:57 – 1:21:02] Adam: Maybe tonight, after I carve the pumpkins, I’ll go down to my ghost hunter’s goatee.
[1:21:03 – 1:21:08] Adam: Then I’ll carve myself into a nice hockey mustache for our trip north next week.
[1:21:08 – 1:21:09] Adam: It’s crazy.
[1:21:09 – 1:21:10] Erik: That’s already a week away, man.
[1:21:10 – 1:21:11] Adam: I know.
[1:21:11 – 1:21:11] Adam: Here it is.
[1:21:12 – 1:21:12] Adam: I know.
[1:21:13 – 1:21:15] Adam: My brother and my parents come up to visit.
[1:21:15 – 1:21:19] Adam: That seemed like that was at the very end of paternity leave, which it is, I guess.
[1:21:19 – 1:21:23] Adam: But I still got some time here before I need to go back to making the mulgatani soup.
[1:21:23 – 1:21:25] Adam: So I’m going to make the most of it.
[1:21:25 – 1:21:30] Adam: And yeah, I’m really looking forward to our trip up to our friends of the north.
[1:21:31 – 1:21:32] Adam: That’s what I’ll do north.
[1:21:32 – 1:21:32] Erik: It’s going to be great.
[1:21:33 – 1:21:34] Erik: So that’s coming up next week.
[1:21:34 – 1:21:47] Adam: But yeah, if you have any boat stories or poems or audio tracks you would like to submit in honor of your favorite boat or boats, go ahead and get them to us.
[1:21:47 – 1:21:49] Adam: You have about a week to do that.
[1:21:49 – 1:21:51] Adam: And then, yeah, next week, boat show.
[1:21:52 – 1:21:53] Adam: Boat show.
[1:21:54 – 1:21:58] Adam: Until then, we’re going to get on out to the mezzanine.
[1:21:58 – 1:22:02] Adam: So I hope you are all living your best life.
[1:22:02 – 1:22:03] Adam: Happy Halloween.
[1:22:04 – 1:22:08] Adam: As we always say on Tumble Home, life is precious and every day is a miracle.
[1:22:09 – 1:22:09] Adam: Good night.
[1:22:10 – 1:22:10] SPEAKER_00: Good night.
[1:22:10 – 1:22:10] SPEAKER_00: Good night.
[1:22:10 – 1:22:11] SPEAKER_00: Good night.
[1:22:22 – 1:22:24] SPEAKER_00: That boy needs therapy.
[1:22:24 – 1:22:25] SPEAKER_00: Psychosomatic.
[1:22:25 – 1:22:26] SPEAKER_00: That boy needs therapy.
[1:22:26 – 1:22:27] SPEAKER_00: You’re psychosomatic.
[1:22:27 – 1:22:28] SPEAKER_00: That boy needs therapy.
[1:22:28 – 1:22:29] SPEAKER_00: Lie down on the couch.
[1:22:30 – 1:22:31] SPEAKER_00: What does that mean?
[1:22:31 – 1:22:32] SPEAKER_00: You’re a nut.
[1:22:32 – 1:22:33] SPEAKER_00: You’re crazy in the coconut.
[1:22:33 – 1:22:34] SPEAKER_00: What does that mean?
[1:22:34 – 1:22:36] SPEAKER_00: That boy needs therapy.
[1:22:36 – 1:22:37] SPEAKER_00: I’m gonna kill you.
[1:22:37 – 1:22:38] SPEAKER_00: That boy needs therapy.
[1:22:38 – 1:22:40] SPEAKER_00: Franticazoo, let’s have a cheese.
[1:22:40 – 1:22:42] Erik: How about I count three?
[1:22:45 – 1:22:46] Adam: Happy Halloween.
