    A Conversation with... John from Movie Lovers Unite

    Movie Lovers Unite John and Bob discuss Movie Lovers Unite's history and its future. The future is bright; listen to find out more. Movie Lovers Unite https://youtube.com/live/tGmxzAhMxYU Bad AI Transcript Hey, everybody, and welcome to a conversation with Movie Lovers Unite, specifically, John DeGregorio. Yeah, you actually got it right, man. Thank you. Oh, wow. Well, that was a lucky shot. I could have gone anywhere with that, so. You did really good. I'm proud of you, man. Well, you know, it's kind of one of those, you have a lot of syllables in your name, so DeGregorio. Imagine trying to spell it in English. Well, imagine trying to spell this. I spelled my last name in grade school. Oh, my gosh. Yeah. I could play Wheel of Fortune with it and maybe spell something different. Yeah, because you got two I's, two O's, an E. I mean, all you're missing is a U and a Y. You got them all in there. So, yeah. You got all the vowels. It's a Wheel of Fortune. There you go. Right. So…Actually, I met John on KJNA podcast one night just out of happenstance. And then we did Fright Night and Dune. Yeah. And so, yeah. But I wanted to talk to you. So basically, I just talked to folks about what they're doing. So how did you come up with Movie Lovers Unite? So it started off like as a Facebook page. And so, you know, my thing is this. I'm not big on Facebook groups. I hate Facebook groups. I hate trying to be an admin on a group. I had people try to get me to be admin. So I'm like, look, I'm not an admin. Put me on a page. I'm good to go. I'd rather go ahead and ban someone and I can just like the person and be done versus having to go through a bunch of members. But how the page came about was this. I got tired of seeing like fake movie news.and if you remember movie pilot back in the day, I got tired of seeing fake news and stuff like that when it came down to uh sites like movie pilot and we got this Covered, but we got this cover came out like later on. But I got tired of that. So I'm like, you know what? I want to go ahead and create a page where people can feel welcomed. Not only feel welcome but be able to talk about their favorite movies just as i talk about my favorite movies and they have a safe place to do it without being judged because all movies are subjective. I might like, you may not like, or there might be certain scenes that you liked and I didn't like. And you can't measure film physically or anything like that. It's just something that cannot be measured. So, you know, I always say all movies are subjective. I always root for people that love their films, even though I may not like their film. I'm like, good for you. I'm glad that you liked that movie. It didn't work for me, but I'm glad it worked for you. That's great. But…you know, I was always in that type of space where i like i want to do a movie new new movie news then after that, I was like, okay, time to make a channel. I have, and then at that time, too, I also had somebody else that was working with me on the page, and i didn't put any type of advertisements into it or anything like that because i don't pay for advertising and well we got the admin at the time that i had was like, well, let's put some money into it. Let's go on ahead and do it. so Then after he left, it just was just me. And I had a couple of other people. And it was just like, you know, basically people coming and going. But, you know, I would never take anything back. And I'm happy that even though we may have our differences, I'm actually happy that he did support the page and he made it what it is. And then, of course, I continued off of it. But, you know, after that, I've just been there.

Thank you, Lizzo. Hey, everyone. This is Miles. Welcome to Static Radio. Thank you, Lizzo. What the hell? What the hell was that? I just like to provoke you a little bit. Thank you, Liz. I was like, what? I like to throw you off a little bit. I do play a mean flute. Remember that time in band camp? Wow. Hey. It's a brand new year. It is 2025. Believe it or not. 2025. It's hard to realize that. Yeah. i've i've thought for sure after i met you and there's no way in hell he's making it 2025. i thought when i first met you there's no way he still has teeth like 2025. thanks i appreciate that because i was right about losing his hair though i was right yeah that's true it's unfortunate i still have most of my teethYeah. Yeah. Well, you know, 2025 has brought us some snow. Did you get any snow at all? Not a whole lot. Well, the other day, I guess. It was a Thursday, Friday or something. We got like almost probably 10 inches of snow. No. Nope. Yeah. The first snow was the best snow. It was everywhere. and then we've got another another dusting of snow that's pretty much gone i mean yeah it's all gone. In the driveway, but the other snow's still here yeah no considering we don't normally we get snow and then it goes away right right you know yeah yeah but the interesting thing to me that comes with the snow is we get to see all the little critters skittering about because they'reexposed. You can see their footprints. You can see them because there's no camouflage. I recently saw two foxes frolicking in the snow. That was nice. Two of them. Not just one fox. Two foxes chasing each other, having fun. I'm like… hey, I wonder what else… This was during the day. I was like, hey, I wonder what else has been around at night. So I got all these cameras set up, and so I proceeded one evening to kind of… Anytime there's movement near the camera, it records a little bit. And so I'm like, maybe I'll find some stuff. It'd be cool. So I'm going through the… The camera, the different cameras and looking at the, you know, it keeps, I have a big memory thing, so it keeps it for weeks. Yeah. It's not just like a day or something. It'll just keep it. And then when it gets full, then eventually it'll delete the old ones. And, but I mean, it's going to take like a month or something to fill up this, the, you know, memory. Yeah. So I'm buzzing through things real quick. Oh, there's a rabbit, right? Squirrels. There's the dog running in front of the camera.i think we're working up to a slender man story here. Really? You think that's where we're going with this? I'm sure of it so i'm i'm going back through, you know, going through time, backwards in time, looking at all these things and you know let me mute myself. I'm sorry. You don't need to hear this. I'm sorry. What are you doing? what's happening over there? I ran out of peanut butter and the dog's upset. I'm sorry. This dog is slender. I'm like, maybe you had a slender man thing going on there for some reason continue i'm gonna just mute this till this dog is done.

    A Conversation about ... the Jersey Drone Show Part 2

    Rob from YMISpodcast Rob from YMIS (Your Most Interesting Story) and Bob talk about all the happenings in the skies over New Jersey. Rob from YMISpodcast https://youtube.com/live/GvNYV9AizL8 Full Summary Hey, everybody, and welcome to the part two of a conversation about the Jersey Drone Show. We went so long last time that we've had to make a part two. With me again tonight is Rob. The Jersey Drone's Revenge. Okay. Revenge of the Jersey Drones? Are we doing Attack of the Killer Tomatoes? Is that what it's like here? Uh-huh. Maybe George Clooney will be included in this one as well. I've heard there's a chance he might dial in. Dial in? I look forward. I look forward, yeah. Yeah, he'll connect. He'll connect. Yeah. But yeah, he was in the attack of the killer tomatoes. Anyway, enough of the silliness about that. But yeah, Rob's with me tonight. We're going to continue our obviously in-depth, into the Jersey drones, as we're calling them. Is that an official name, you think, Jersey drones? Jersey? Usually New Jersey. So it's New Jersey drones, I think. Do you have to put the new in there? Because people are going to get confused that it's England. Well, you better put it in apostrophe if you don't put the new, just so no one's confused. Because, you know, Jersey is over there in the U.K.,It's also a t-shirt material, isn't it? I think. It could be made of fabric. Yeah, I believe so. Jersey is a fabric type. I didn't think about that. Yeah. Maybe it is. Maybe they're just kites. Maybe we're really all on the wrong track here. It's just the Jersey kites. And then there's a lot of… African balsa wood. Yeah, there's a lot of guys drinking some… uh 40 ounces on the ground holding the string. I wonder if anyone's tried that, just waving their hand between the ground and the drone. It could be. I mean, it gets windy out there so so we've already, we've got the, we got, did the quiz. And must I, I must say myself, I think i did pretty well. Um, trying to think back, we've had a couple of quizzes of late.I think you did. Yeah, you did. You did pretty well. I think out of the. No, you did. All right. You came back. Finally, I get finally. I am. I'm spinning a bit here thinking of the quizzes because they're just so they're grained in my brain. Yeah, I finally get a little bit of, you know, you know, validation here. So then there we go. I don't know. You started off with the Dogman quiz and you nailed it. And I think about you as doing very well in the quizzes. So the quizzes that you have sort of tripped up on seem to be in the minority. So don't worry. You're always a quiz star to me. Oh, well, thank you. I appreciate that. I appreciate being a quiz star. Quiz star. Speaking of stars, many people think that these orbs that people are seeing with the drones are stars.Hmm. Okay. Well, misidentified stars. It's pretty interesting if you, and I've tried this and it didn't have success, but apparently if you hold your iPhone or smartphone of choice up to a star and zoom in, you get some interesting sort of light effects going on to make it look like it's pulsating or undulating or something like that. Oh, really? Yeah. That's wild. Give it a try. Report back. Well, the interesting thing to me about these orb things is because everybody always overzooms their cameras. Yeah. And then you're going to get that effect. So, well, I don't know what digital zoom, what the, you know, because everybody's on digital zoom at this point. So who knows? Yes. I don't know. That's at least what people who are trying to say that these are nottrue photos of actual orbs, the debunkers that we've discussed at length.

    A Conversation about ... the Jersey Drone Show Part 1

    Rob from YMISpodcast Rob from YMIS (Your Most Interesting Story) and Bob talk about all the happenings in the skies over New Jersey. Rob from YMISpodcast https://youtube.com/live/WyT4Cqv07RM Full Summary Hey everybody, welcome. This is Bob with a conversation about the Jersey Drone Show, if you can believe it. Today, I'm joined again by Rob from your most interesting story podcast. There he is. And there's a little, got to get the plugs in early, Rob, while people, you know, first three seconds, you get three seconds on YouTube and then they're out. So there you go. It's about their minds are fresh. That's right. Yeah. It's all about the shorts. It's all about the shorts. So Rob's here with me again. We're going to talk about all the hubbub that is surrounding the happenings in New Jersey here lately, right? New Jersey drones. The New Jersey drone show. I thought that sounded kind of like a spinoff from the Jersey Shore to me. I've never seen that show before.I never watched it. I mean, I just know of it because it's a pop culture phenomenon. I don't think I've ever actually watched an episode. I mean, I've seen it online and in the social feeds and all that kind of stuff from way back when, early social feeds, I'm assuming, because I can't remember what year it started. But I've seen it online, but I've never really watched the show. I've heard of it. Some of the characters. That's about as far as I get. Yeah, there's Snooki and Jay somebody and the situation. And, you know, I think the situation is appropriate character name for the Jersey Drone Show. There definitely is a situation. We have a situation. Exactly. Instead of Houston, we have a problem. We say, Jersey, we have a situation. So, yeah. Now,I always have been flow on these things. So for the other topics that we've covered, right? So Dog Man. Moth Man. Kentucky Goblins. Right, yeah, Moth Man. And then the Thunderbird. I've drawn from my vast and varied, varied from last show, knowledge about these things. And so I was a little torn. You're the researcher, I would say, between the two of us. That's why you're Rob and not Bob again, because R for researcher and then B for baloney. I don't know what that part would be. So I kind of did a half-hearted effort to read a little bit. Here was my criteria. If it's in the feed and I see it, i'll take a look at it. That was it. I didn't go seeking out things. I just But I will tell you, as we go along here, I do have experience with larger drones. You do? Yeah. Do you have somewhat of an expert opinion? Well, no. An amateur opinion, but i do have i do have some anecdotal uh informationFrom my own personal experiences, which you have no knowledge of. I'm looking forward to gaining that knowledge. We'll see if it comes into play here. I'm not sure. I probably have not been within the physical distance of a drone less than a couple hundred yards, I would guess. I've never seen one in action. Really? Yeah. How interesting. Yeah. Well, I will, I will tell you. So this is the interesting thing about the Jersey drone show is everybody keeps calling them drones. And yet on my cursory, you know, readings, I'm not sure all of them are drones. No. And that kind of leads me into, we want to move into the quiz. Do you want me to go straight to quiz? Sure. Well, I'm just thinking, cause we're going to cover some of the topics potentially that,That you would just bring up. There could be some related questions. We can kind of spin off on the individual. Okay. Well, let's go. All right. Let's do it. Jersey drones quiz. There we go. Jersey drones quiz. Might go over your head. You're very clever. They might keep your eyes skyward.

  6. A Conversation about ... the Thunderbird

    12/21/2024

    A Conversation about ... the Thunderbird

    Rob from YMISpodcast Rob from YMIS (Your Most Interesting Story) Podcast quizzes Bob on all thing Thunderbird. With more than a few random offshoots onto other subjects. Rob from YMISpodcast https://youtube.com/live/AGHEMAPv2pk Full Summary everybody and welcome, this is Bob. And tonight, with rob from your most interesting Story, we're going to talk about the Thunderbird. Thunderbirds are go! I did not find that out in my research, that they were good Oh, they weren't go? Not that i saw. That may be a little bit of an esoteric uh tangent there, I'm not sure. But if people know who the thunderbirds are, it's a british uh television show with uh what was it marionation they're marionettes that were there's a british british tv show called the thunderbirds that saved they saved the world did they really yeah marionettes that can save the world yeah it's from like late 60s are they related to captain scarlet do you remember captain scarlet yeah okay it's uh by the same folks and i'm blanking on their names now butThey did the Thunderbirds. They did Captain Scarlet. They did some other stuff. Team America World Police is a total spoof of all of those kind of things. Never heard of that. Oh, okay. That's from the South Park people. Oh, okay. But we're here tonight. We're not talking about the Thunderbirds from Britain. We're talking about the mythical cryptid Thunderbird. Can we say that? Although some people… we'll say it is neither mythical nor encrypted. It is real. Steeped in legend, a mystery to this day. Yeah. Well, yeah. For some folks, not so much a mystery. No, especially one person we'll hear about later on. Yeah. Well, we'll see if your story connects with the one that I know of. So we'll see. That's a good idea. Now, I don't know that you realize…It's funny how there's always, this is why people think we live in a simulation because of all these weird connectivity, the connections between things. I don't know that you realize that I am in the, in proximity to a Thunderbird. Right now? Well, yeah. I mean, within like a 35 mile radius. Sure. Huh. Is he your pet? No. There is a, in Alton, Illinois, on the bluff of the Mississippi, is a painting called the Piusaw Bird. And the Piusaw Bird, in essence, is a thunderbird. Oh. And even though the current, so if you drive down the river road along the Mississippi River outside of Alton, you will encounter, you can't miss it, it's huge. you will encounter the Piusaw bird, which is a painting on the side of a river bluff, rock. And the story is that the Piusaw bird lived on the bluffs of the Mississippi. And the indigenous people, the Native Americans who lived there on the bluff, painted, they didn't paint the one that you see, they painted a different one that got destroyed by white people at some point on a different bluff.down the way a little bit, but they painted the Piusaw bird on the bluff in honor of the bird that lived up on the bluff. And since that time, people have embraced it because of the, they call it the legend of the Piusaw bird, but I'd believe that the native folks believed there was a giant bird that lived on the bluff. Interesting. Now, what does… Piasaw, what is that, an area? Well, it's become like there's Piasaw Oil Company. I think it's like a county. Okay. But that's what the Native Americans call it. They call it the Piasaw Bird. Okay. And it just got adopted. You know, I have no idea what Piasaw means. I should look it up here. Maybe it means thunder. Thunder.Wouldn't that be great? We had some pythosaur and lightning here last weekend. Really? Oh, wow. Unusual for where I live. The pythosaur bird is very close to Pierre Marquette Park,
