Right. Leprechaun in space. That was a good 1.
Yeah. Are we live? That's a
I think we're live Yeah. Talking about leprechauns in
space and shit. Mhmm.
I don't have anything on the screen yet, Gail. Uh-oh.
I don't know what to tell you. Uh-oh. Do
you are you live on your end yet? We are 100%
professionals. We are a 100% live on Black Cat Report.
Oh, there we are. Okay. Are you good? It always just takes a
couple seconds. There we are. Good evening,
everyone. Good evening, lady
and gentlemen. Good evening. Welcome to Beer,
Boos and Boogeymen episode 4. Can you believe it's already
episode 4? Mm-mm. Mhmm. It's,
sneaks up on you, doesn't it? It really does. It really does.
Mhmm. And, I think we're all pretty excited about this 1. I know
I am. Yeah. This is gonna be a real
special 1 for, folks. I have the feeling.
Yeah. Yeah. I'm I'm hoping, there there's a couple people I'm hoping
will call in that I I know, have some stories,
with tonight's topic. But, speaking of that, did you wanna go ahead
and introduce that? Well, we decided to call this 1 last
visit. It's gonna be about communication
with those that have passed away, your loved 1 that that have passed away, be
it a relative, a friend, or even, you know, a loved pet that may
have somehow communicated with you in the afterlife. So
as usual, you know, I've got a couple stories. I may get a little emotional
during these because, you know, you guys kinda know probably who they're
about. But so when I start talking about mine, you may have to
give me a minute if I get a little choked up. So, like, I'm already
starting to choke up just kinda thinking about it. So, anyway, let's,
let let's do our normal rounds before I get too emotional already.
So Alright. Alright. I'll I'll kick it
off tonight. I never go first because I got a really cool 1.
It is Deftones' Phantom Bride. I
believe the company is belching beaver.
Wow. Yeah. Absolutely love that. No. It's
really good. I could never find any of this stuff you guys can
find. I know. We're gonna just have to start shipping it to you before the
episodes, like, like, a week beforehand on the DL.
Yeah. Right. Joey, what you got? Well, like,
last month, almost said week. I feel like it's weekly.
I got a Shiva pale ale. It's always great from Asheville Brewing.
Really great 1. So I'll continue that trend this week Cat next
this month. Next month, I will grab a new beer, and we'll see what
it tastes like. Alright.
Well I am rocking. Because he's just
I'm rocking Voodoo Ranger again. Again? No.
It's a classic. It's a classic. Okay. Readily available. Absolutely
delicious. Unlike Damien, I didn't get the weird fruity 1. I
actually got the OG, which tastes good. Well,
like I've said for the last 4 months, I could never get lucky and find
anything remotely paranormal. So this time, I went
with, since I'm a big monster energy drink fan, I
went with the monster beast, the energy monster.
Oh, how is that? I I've been thinking about getting 1 of them, but It
tastes just like a fucking monster until it's until it's in
your retina here, then Cat starts to temp. Drive. Right.
Until until right in here, it burns a little, but it tastes just like a
monster. And then just for shits and giggles, I got this stuff called Pirate
Water. It's supposed to be margarita flavored, so we'll see what happens when I
crack it open. Oh, wow. Are either 1 of those alcoholic? Are they
1 of those alcoholic? They are. Wow. The monster 1 has
6% alcohol by volume, and the other 1 is
10% alcohol by volume. Holy shit. That's the margarita?
Yeah. That's the margarita 1. So we're taking donations
for, Boos' Uber home tonight from
where he is recording. Don't buy him a
coffee. It's buy him a new about $20, y'all.
Right. No. We
need 1 of these companies to to sponsor us, and then and then that'll
that'll cover Boos Uber every day. It would.
Mhmm. Yeah. And maybe they could send me something to drink. That's that's kinda
goes with the show. But something this kinda does, it's
called, you know, monster, and and it's a beast. And this other one's got
a skull on it. So you know? K. That works. Good enough.
Yeah. Right. Good enough. So You did good, dude. You did good.
Alright, fellas. Well, let's go ahead and get
into it because we I think we're gonna have a lot to get through. I've
got a couple of Kristen stories. I actually have a
personal a very quick 1 that is fresh. It is
recent. Happened at Tombstone. I
just got back from Tombstone for the listeners, and it was
awesome and, Paranormal
infused. Couldn't Beer you for a second. So I've got that. I know
we're gonna have some callers tonight. How
about Dee? You wanna kick us off with a story?
Per use? I I guess I will. Alright.
Let's see. Where shall I start? I'll start with
this 1 because this 1 I shouldn't get too emotional with this 1. This 1
was actually pretty pretty rad. So
right now, I'm recording from my mom's house.
So back in 2020, my
aunt passed away from leukemia. I was living here at the
time. She was living here. She passed away in our living room.
And so, you know, that that hit me pretty hard. It hit all of us
pretty hard. She was like my second mom. You know? And
her room was right across from mine. So I got so used to hearing
her breathe the machine at night. Like, when she passed away, it was
like the silence, like, killed me. And
so I had to start sleeping with the TV on and never been the
type to sleep with the TV on. I just had to have some kind of
noise. So fast forward to probably a year later,
you know, I'm done married. I've been moved out,
living where my wife was living at the time, and
my my aunt was a real heavy smoker all the way up to, like, the
week that she passed away, like, just 1 right after the other. And,
we got this sudden whiff of strong cigarette smoke in our house. Me and my
wife's the only 2 home, neither 1 of us smoked, And she was
like, you know, I smell smoke. You know? And
we had neighbors, but not close enough to where if they were outside smoking, we
could smell it. And she just like she goes, get
out some of your equipment. So I got out my my rim pod.
I got AAK2 meter, set them up on the bed, and she's
like, let's just test something. Let's just see if this is who we
think it is. And so I start asking
questions. Questions about my aunt's stuff
that she liked, stuff like that. I'll be like, if this is you, aunt
Sharon, I want you to to make 1 of these devices
light up or go off. Only 1 she interacted with
was the k 2 meter. So I would ask multiple choice questions.
So, like, the first question I ask okay. Your favorite TV
show. When I name your favorite TV show, I want you to light 1 of
these devices up. 1st show I named, nothing
happened. Second thing, nothing happened. 3rd
show, which was her favorite show, Supernatural, the k
2 went all the way to the red. I'm like, okay.
Then I named 1 more. I did, like, 444 choices.
4th 1 did nothing. I'm like, okay. Then I
asked, who's your favorite sports team? She was a big
football fan. Named 4 different teams. When it got to
her favorite team, it lit up. I'm like, okay. It's 2 for
2. I ask it 12 questions.
11 of those 12 questions lit up on the correct answer.
Oh, wow. And I'm like I'm like, if that's not her, that's a
really, really big coincidence. Because, like, my my wife didn't know the answers to this
stuff, and the only other person in the room was me, and I knew all
the answers. So
So every time it got to the correct answer other than 1 time, it lit
it lit it all the way up to the red. Yeah. And
I walked away. I was like, okay. That's gotta be her because,
you know, it answered every single question correctly.
And so I thought that was I thought that was pretty rad that
if it was her, you know, she was sitting there basically having a full blown
conversation with us. Wow. Wow. Wow.
Do how how long ago was that? Did I miss that? She
passed away in 2020. This probably happened
in 2021, probably 15, 16
months after she passed. Okay. Okay. So
Do you ever have you heard from her again in any way? Like, do
you sense a presence? Do you feel her sometimes?
Smell smoke? There there is there is times the very first episode we
did that I did from here. Yeah. Like I said, her room is
right here, and at some point, I hear somebody knocking on this
door in the room I'm in. That's right. Yeah. And
when I got done, my niece was in the next room, which used to be
my bedroom, and y'all walked out. I was like, hey. Did you get up and
knock on the door, you know, during the episode? She's like, no, but I heard
it. She's like, did you hear the footsteps in the hall? And I was like,
but, no, I had, you know, the headphones and stuff on. She goes, well, I
heard walking, and then I heard somebody knock on that door. And I was like
she goes, who do you think that was? And I pointed to her room. I
was like, I guarantee it was in Sharon letting me know that she was here
listening. That is so
cool. Thank you, g. Thank you so much.
What, Thank you, ma'am. Yeah. III don't
I'm I'm I don't want you to get choked up tonight, but, you know, we
we knew coming into this subject. Like, you know, it's it it can be it
can be hard talk about. It it can also be very just very,
reassuring, reconfirming, experience
for folks to have. Mhmm. And, you know,
folks, they they don't talk about it a
lot. I noticed that, like, you know, it's it it might be an uncomfortable
discussion to have, like, to talk about. But specifically with afterlife
communications, any, you know, messages and signs from the other side,
people kinda shy away from talking about that, like, you know, right out
front. Mhmm. And it's it's very confusing,
because come to find out, thanks to Gil, thanks to,
an article that he found a poll that he found,
I can't remember how many were in this poll. It was a it was a
good amount of people who took this poll, and it was all about, like,
how many have experienced signs and messages from past
unloved ones? How many have had dreams of past unloved ones?
And you would be shocked to see
the percentage of Americans who
have these kinds of experiences. I I
yeah. I know I was very, very shocked. It's like it's a majority of
people. It's a lot. A big amount. Yeah. 46%.
It's,
53% say Okay. They've ever been
visited by a dead family member in a
dream or some other form. Mhmm.
So over half of the
US population and this is as of August
2023. This is less than a year ago. Mhmm. The numbers
I'm looking at here, it was
was it was around yeah. So
5, 007, 5, 079 adults
took place in the survey in order for, like, the sample size, which
is a pretty decent sample size.
Mhmm. And yeah. And that that's,
we should honestly, we'll I I think we'll end up posting it,
after the show, like, up on, our different socials on,
like, you know, RKB Paranormal and Paranormal Girl on Black Cat Report
because the this is I don't know how
this research study flew under the radar. Yeah. Like, I
we were when we picked this topic for the show, and, you know,
we were all kind of, you know, a few weeks ago collecting articles about, like,
Cat, you know, let's kinda get some idea, like, kinda test the field, see how
people are interacting, how we should ask our questions, you know, planning for the
show. And and I came across this, and my jaw dropped. I
was like, why wasn't this front page news everywhere? I mean, especially,
like, all the 4 of us, you know, we're all in the paranormal
community. I didn't see shit about
this. And you're you're having over
half of the US population is just straight up saying
after a loved 1 has passed, they've had some form of meaningful contact with
them. Yeah. That isn't that that number is I would have been
freaked out if it was 1 tenth. Right. You know? Right. I feel
like that's still significant. Mhmm. Because we're we're talking
a 150, a 175, 000, 000 people.
Right. Yeah. It's nice. Yeah. And if, you know lot. I've
seen other polls, like, you know, just going through the paranormal, being so involved
for, like, the last 3 years. I've I've looked at other polls, like, percentage of
people who believe in demons or witchcraft or, you know,
whatever. No other subject of the paranormal,
stacks up to this. This is 1 of the largest segments of the
population that this kind of stuff happens to that I have seen.
And you're absolutely right. It flew under the radar. I had no idea.
Yeah. It's very personal. You know? It is. Yeah.
Maybe why people don't talk about it as much too. Like, we're just talking about
earlier. It's super personal to people. Maybe a little easier in,
like, a a form of, you know, just
calling because I imagine that's what the research poll was is just calling people, just
being like, hey. Did you have you had experiences is so easier for them
to be just like, yes. I've had an experience with this. And then be like,
great. You know? Like, that's you know, write that down.
You know, 1 out of 25100, you know, 26100,
whatever the number is. So it's, like, a lot easier than being like, hey. Let's
get into this of, like, what my experience was, which we're hoping a lot
of you will share today with us. Hopefully so. Absolutely. Yeah.
And and it it just clicked with me. You know, I I've been so
busy the last couple weeks with this new job and stuff. Like, it just clicked
with me this this story I've seen Beer. And I wish I
would have thought about it before, and I would y'all may have seen it about
this mom who seen her son who had passed
away, like, years ago, seen him on her
security camera in their living room 1 night. Woah.
Like and she, like, shared, like, you know, pictures of it, and it was kind
of somewhat pixelated because it was a you know, those
kind of cameras at times can suck, but she was like, that is my son,
and he had been dead for, like, 5 years. Oh, wow. Wow. Like, showed
up in the living room on her security camera. This was a
story from, like, a couple years ago, and I've come across it several different times
just on random posts on stuff, and it always just is. I'm like,
that's insane Yeah. That Beer gone
that long, and she just randomly gets a notification, like, on her phone,
like, an
alert saying there was motion detected or whatever. And she pulls it up, and she
sees her son standing in the living room. Wow.
Yeah. I'm gonna get oh,
no.
Alright. This is gonna be rough, guys. Yeah. Yeah.
You got this Yeah. Yeah. You got this Damion Only No. The only other thing
I I just wanted to tack on to that little little discussion there was, you
know, another reason that folks might not feel comfortable
about talking about this with others is there's still in a
a stigma associated with with any of this stuff.
And I think there is still a a stigma with that. So, yeah,
which is unfortunate because I've had personal experiences. Dee has had
personal experiences. What about you 2? Nope. Not
personally? No? No. Sadly, no. No. JB looks fine.
But but Yeah. But I will say just off the Cat. Sorry, Joey.
I'm popping in here. I will say off the Cat, this actually represents
the actual poll that we just represented, where half You do. Of the actual poll
that we just represented, where half really does. Of the hosts have
had experiences. The other half haven't. Mhmm. So in
in line with that stigma, I think that's part of the reason why we wanted
to do the show was to not just connect, not just help folks
relate, and also, you know, to kind of point
out, if you haven't had contact with a loved 1 who's passed on, it
doesn't mean they don't love you. You know? Right. And that's an
important thing Boos. But hearing these stories, I think, does,
give some semblance of, like, credence, some semblance of, like,
hope of, like, connection to these to these,
people, you know, human and nonhuman that, have
made such a difference in our lives as we're alive, you know, and that
we might have a connection with them again. And it also shows there
should be literally 0. I don't know
of anything in this country that half
over half of the country can agree on. I mean, we could barely do that
with presidential elections, y'all. Like, come on.
Good luck trying to get somebody elected into office with 53% of the
votes. You know? So, like,
so more people have had experiences than
have voted for either 1 of the presidents, if you look at it that way.
Don't feel alone. Mhmm. So you're saying there's something
to it. Mhmm. I'm saying it is the new third
party that we should all have for the
paranormal party. There we go.
Well, what, can I
jump into 1 of our listeners' stories? Because I have him in
my chat right now, so I wanted to kinda share his story, if
that's alright. I don't know if he's gotta go here. Getting late where he is
at. But, Michael, I'm gonna go ahead and read yours.
So this is from my friend, Michael. I have had him on the show,
and, he had a podcast of his own. I think it's gonna
be relaunched. Correct me if I'm wrong, but I do hope so. And he
sent me this a couple of days ago, so I'm just gonna read it
verbatim. Hey, Kristen. This is something that happened
to me. A good friend of mine who came back to say his final goodbye.
This is an emotional thing. So you already know I was in the
army. I'm considered a Persian Gulf era veteran. So me
and William met at Fort Sill in Oklahoma, became fast friends, and
basically brothers. We did a lot of our training together even
after training. Well, let's say shenanigans took place. Nothing
serious. Just a lot of fun. Then came the day where we got orders
to different duty stations. Nothing uncommon. We stayed in
touch and talked quite a bit. Well, William got orders to go
overseas, so to what we call the sandbox.
I missed my chance to go. I'm still pissed about that.
Sadly, I must say he came home in a box under the flag.
He died over there. He is originally from Ohio where I moved to.
Now where I work, we have vets here, and 1 of them came up to
me and handed me a rank and US Army uniform patch.
He said, this is from William. He says he is doing
good. Now as far as I know, the 2 of them have
never met. When I got these items, I could literally feel
his presence on them. I know they are from him.
I was wondering if I should share this, but I decided to share with you
and everyone else just to say our loved ones are safe, and they do come
back. They are with us. If I may say to my brother,
William, he knows exactly what this means. I can make a horse run. I
can make a bullfrog hop. This is a Fort Sill saying.
Oh, thank you. I love that saying, though. Thank you. Michael.
Thank you. And also thank you for your service. Yes. Mhmm. Thank you for
your service. Absolutely. Oh,
that's heavy. Who's got a joke? No.
Joey? That's what I brought you on the other side. Dashled.
Yes. I'm speechless on this 1.
0, man. Oh. What did what did you say at the beginning?
What did what did you say at the beginning? I said, sorry, Salem. You're gonna
have to sit over, like, on the floor and not on the desk. And you
usually, like you said something. So my Cat 1 of my
things I'm saying. Jokes, I just I just they go out of my head so
quickly. I don't remember. I just, like, in and out. Much memory. They get
as much memory as forethought when it comes to That's how I'm able to
live. That's how I'm able to live. Okay? It's just in 1 ear
out the other. Anyways, you told Salem to go back to
Massachusetts. That's how we're gonna close it. Thank you so much. Old
fashioned dad joke. Yes. I remember your jokes, Joey. Every
1 of them. It's a condition, actually. So I
have a story, if it's cool, if I if I share it. Absolutely.
Cool. The the person did, wish to remain
anonymous, so respecting that here, which
I do wanna remind everybody, when you whether you're calling
in or whether you're submitting a story, on any of our
submission links, we we give anonymous options for everything.
So always an option. It's just through an
Instagram message, but so a couple of years ago,
I lost my husband. I was absolutely devastated
and spiraled into depression, staying in
bed, crying all the time, and was asking for a
sign that he was still with me.
Morning, I woke up with someone cuddling me from behind,
spooning me. And for a second, I thought
it Cat all been a dream, But as I
came around, it disappeared.
It happened twice now, both times, when I've been really down.
Oh, that hits. Yeah. Thank
you, anonymous, for sharing your story. Thank you. Right. And
and it should bring her comfort knowing that he's still there
and letting her know that, hey. Everything's gonna be okay. Yeah. Mhmm.
Yeah. That's that's the sign. You know, I think a lot of people would
really love to have a sign like Cat. Like, the feeling of Mhmm.
Undeniable feeling that they are there, like a touch or a voice or
something. You know? A lot of people receive, all kinds of signs,
though. It can be just something, a special song between you 2,
a a feather, you know, like a coin. Like, there's all kinds of
ways that you can hear from, your your Report non
loved ones, and I just I find it very, very fascinating, just all of the
different ways that they can get across. Right.
Electricity is a huge 1, but, that is such a cool
story. Like, I just love Cat, the the feeling of actual
physical touch. That is so cool. And there
was there was a simplicity in the way that they wrote it out that was,
like, it it hits. I don't I don't know
if that if that makes sense or whatever, and I'm not saying that more words
can't be great or whatever, but I I just feel like they delivered a lot
in that 1 paragraph. Oh, wow. Like, it's just like Yeah.
We can all, like, imagine, like yeah. You know?
Right. Yeah. That's heavy. Real heavy. And,
and Kristen, you mentioned, you know, a song could could
be a way, of somebody letting you know, hey. I'm still here.
That that reminds me, this isn't my personal story, but it's 1 of my mom's.
I'm gonna share it because she we talked about it before we started recording. And,
she said if she's awake, she may type it out in the chat on on
whosever chat she was in. But I was like, you know what? I was like,
I can go ahead and tell it. Couple years ago, her best friend of,
like, gosh, 40 something years passed away.
Like I said, her best friend since she was a, you know, teenager 12, 13
years old. You know, my mom's in her sixties, so lifetime
friend, passed away. And
both huge Bob Seger fans. Mhmm.
Nice. I think at last count, my mom said they went to, like, 9 or
10 Bob Seger concerts together. Wow. Damn.
Like a lot of like a lot of his concerts. Like, it was their favorite
singer. And, Aw. He was like a rock to him. Right.
So said, what in
too long after she passed, she got in her Cat, and
my mom still listens to CDs, if that tells you anything. She's
kinda old school. She don't like the the electronics, Bluetooth, and then all that. So
she, you know, still listens to CDs and her CD player in her car. And
since she got in her car, I don't remember if she got off work or
just going out to, get ready to go to work and turned on Beer
radio, and it was blaring Bob Seager. And she's like, and
I know I didn't have my radio turned on when I, you know, turn when
I got out of the car last, but the radio was off. Mhmm. Mhmm. And
this, Bob Seger CD was in since she got in, turned it on, and
it was blaring Bob Seger. And she's like, I know that was Debbie telling me
she was here with me. Oh, man. Aw. Man, how did they
do that? Right.
Electronics, I guess. You know? I guess so. Kinda they can control.
Yeah. You know, it's it's really sad, though. I I lost my job at the
calendar factory, because I wanted to take a few days off.
Oh, that was good.
Oh god. I'm tearing up again, Joey. I'm sitting here thinking
everyone. Joey Lee.
I'm sitting here thinking he was being serious. I'm like, he worked at a counterfact
right? That's
what I was going for. No.
Hey. Hey. Dad jokes today if we're gonna, you know. Yeah.
You you gotta you gotta keep them coming, J Boos. Keep them coming.
What I what I tell y'all in episode 1, I'm like, we're gonna need Joey.
We're gonna need Joey. I'll be here
to help. You're our hero tonight.
Well, listen, boys. So I do have 1 more story, but we are
creeping up on our first half hour, that half hour mark. I would love
to go ahead and just open the lines right now just early and just And
I have them open. Mhmm. Okay. And I and I do
wanna throw something out there too, with that just real quick.
Just it's something I just realized. I it always takes me a while to
circle around the block before I get to my point. Everybody knows this about me
Cat knows me. But, all of these great comments
and stories and little experiences that are getting shared in the
live chat are not getting shared in the,
in the audio that gets released as podcasts going forward. So if you could
call in even with the small comments, that makes a difference. We already got our
first caller. Let me get that going.
I don't know what that was. Hey.
Could we get hello. Could we get your
Hi. Your first name and where you're calling from? If you want
to. My name is Beth, and I'm calling from Pullman, Washington.
Awesome. Hello, Beth. Hey, Beth.
Hey, Beth.
Yeah? Okay. Hi.
There we go. We can hear you now. She's Is that good? She's out in
a tractor. I can say that for a fact.
But let's let's bear with it. I
Turn down the detractor, please.
1 moment. 1 moment. I'm gonna go on. I don't know. Alright. Thank
you. Hold on. This is live, y'all. This is what
happens. The fun of live.
Hold on. No worries. No worries. Hey. You're a first caller. You get that
first caller privilege. We don't know if it's our audio fucking up, so,
like, throw it back at us. It's totally fine. Right.
I've been drinking over here. I'm connecting wires.
Alright. Did you have a tractor going? I am
in a tractor. Yes.
That's great. Kristen, I think you know who it is. Beth, I think we've talked
before. Hello? Hi.
Yeah. Hi. Hi. Hey. So
my story, I'm I'm gonna make it short and sweet because my tractor is
running off of GPS, and therefore, if I'm on the phone,
I lose my mark. My husband passed away
a year and a half ago, and my life changed
overnight, Literally overnight.
And he loves electricity, and I did
not hear from him for the first almost
year. And then 1 night,
I was watching television in his
man cave. Mhmm. And the lights
started flashing. And
it was the weirdest thing, and it was scary in
the beginning. Mhmm. And then I started asking
questions. John, is this you? And it would
flash once. Mhmm. I said,
are you okay? And it would flash again.
And I would ask him questions, and this went on for a long
time. And when I said, are you okay?
It flashed so hard and so fast
that it was like a strobe light. Wow. He loves
electricity. I walked away. I mean, I was in the beginning, it
was a terrifying moment. But within a few moments,
it I was filled with love. And Mhmm.
I even got on the phone and messaged 1 of my
sisters to log on to the cameras and see what was
happening, and she saw it as well.
Wow. Wow. It was very powerful. And
the ironic thing about it is that Kristen,
who also is my sister, was asking
John earlier that Damion, unbeknownst to
me. She was in her car and she pulled over and
she said, John, Beth could use you right
now. And I don't know
what conversation they had, but that night, it was
just crazy. And I have it I mean, there was witnesses,
and it's happened. It's never happened in
that room again, but it did happen in my
bedroom and in my bathroom. And there's nothing wrong
electrically. The bulbs are good. I've had electricians
in there. Everything is fine, and it's never
happened again. Yeah.
Yeah. But he also played with Kristen's lights
1 time in her car. He loved playing with lights. 3
times. Yeah. He does love his lights. Yeah.
Mhmm. Yeah. He he loves his lights. Before your I don't
I I don't wanna take this question. You you you Cat to your sister, Kristen.
Sorry. Oh, no. I,
you know, because because her and I have had these discussions before, and I'll have
to fill y'all in later Cat a later date on on, you know, a bunch
of stuff because I've I I think everybody in this family has heard from
him at 1 point, but that night Mhmm. I remember that night
being just significantly it was just significant.
It was it was Yeah. Definitely him. It was him.
And he reached out to me and Kristen has
yeah. All of my sisters have heard from him because he loved us.
I mean, it was kind of a standing joke in the area that he had
a harem because I
have so many Kristen. You know? And he he loves
my sisters, just loved my sisters, called them his ladies.
Yeah. Yeah. Sounds like he was a damn good
man, like, to be to be, you know, married into the family
Right. And and to be loved that Yeah. He deeply.
Mhmm. You know? Yeah. And he was a
strong, silent type. But
words were few, but they were very meaningful.
They were mostly through Morse code. Alright, troop.
Right. Alright. I'm sending love. Thank you. Everything. Thank you,
Ben. I gotta go back to track, Ren. Alright. Don't lose the
place. Bye. Thank you, Beth. Bye. Thank you,
Katie.
Oh, man. Yeah. I'll have to I'll have to fill you guys in at a
later time, all the stuff. I I've got it down on notes because there's there's
been some stuff, lots of stuff. I'm a little lost when
it'll be more relevant. But, hey, I'll take your word for it.
You know, some of it I feel like it's
might not be mine to share, so I don't know. Gotcha. Gotcha. Gotcha.
Exactly sharing here. Yeah. But I've told y'all about the lights in my car. I
think I talked about that last time. Mhmm. In fact, I've shared I
heard about it. I wasn't paying attention. I yeah. I know.
You got the attention span of a gnat. Right. And he was like, what
happened? Who? Everybody, the
lines are open right now. You can
call in. Phone number is 208-717
1611. Right now is the shot. Right now is the chance. If you'd call
in, we'd absolutely love it. If it's a 2 second comment,
hey. This 1 really weird thing happened. It was only for a split
second. There's a reason why you remember it. It's significant, and
we would love to hear it. So if you call in, if you could share
it with everybody. I mean, this is this is this is kind of a healing
episode. Am I right, everybody? Like, this is kind of like a comforting closure kind
of episode. Like, so so all of it adds up to a
significance across the board. This is contributing towards the
collective, significance. So Yeah. No matter
how big, no matter how small, it's all legitimate.
I know, Joey m in in our chat,
you had a really cool little, a little thing, which I which I
have a feeling, is more than just a a, you know, a
chat Boos chat, like, kinda comment. And it would be fantastic if you
had the opportunity to call in, and you did. Again, the phone number
is 208-717-1611.

Ghost.beerforward/calllive, I Beer, something along those lines.

bad dad jokes. So these for the god
somebody like to hear. I have 1 perfectly rang up for
this that kinda works for the, the last step 1 of the
last episodes of, Black Cat Report. It's, did you hear
about the restaurant on the moon? Great Boos. No
atmosphere. I can do this all day.
Literally all day. And Get chills. At,
this is why I cut an hour from our
hour and a half long episode. Oh. 0, hold on
a second. We can say that it's not me on this 1.
And, apparently, in the chat, we have a team Joey thing going on. I don't
know if anyone sees that. So, Followed up by, oh
god, not the moon again.
We're gonna steer clear of the moon, guys, just like we did for 50, 60
years. So Well, let me, let me take a second to to do
my shout Cat here real quick. So Heidi, sister Heidi,
Beth Mhmm. Melissa. Thank you guys for being in the chat. Thanks for

or just go to go stop beer and click the link, and that'll bring
you Mhmm. To the phone as well. So while we are
waiting for our next caller, I do have 1 other
story, listener submission. This is
about medium contact. So that might be something
interesting to get into. And folks folks listening, that that
is a form of communication with the other side. If you've ever had an experience
with a medium, a psychic medium, and you feel like they have
been able to connect you to your past unloved ones, I know, you know, a
lot of people can be split about Cat. But, you know, I've had great
experiences with mediums personally, but that is another
form a way of doing that too. So lots of ways they
can get to you. Mhmm. But I Even a psychic small or
psychic large. You know? Oh, god. Oh, god.
Where's my drink?
Yes. Yes, Joey. Thank you. Thank you for that. Yeah.
So this is from Will.
And it goes, I won a psychic reading
from Jason, who is a mutual friend of ours, and it was 2 weeks ago.
The woman didn't know anything about me, like, not even my full name.
All my social media is private. My grandma came through.
I haven't thought about her in years as she died when I was a little
boy. She described her perfectly. She had a few
messages for me that were extremely direct and detailed. It
was uncanny. She even repeated a message my grandma told
me when I was 5. The day after the reading, I found a
box of old family photos I hadn't looked at in years.
The first photo on top was my grandma wearing the dress and
brooch the psychic described. So my grandma
dropped her first name, Alice, and went by her middle name, Marie,
after marrying my grandpa. The psychic knew her
name was Alice. Blew my
mind. Wow. Wow. Alright. We got
a call coming in. You do. Let me see if I can
navigate this real quick. Hello. You are live. Can we
get your first name and where you're calling from?
Oops. Did I hang up? I think so. I think you hung up on
Oh, shut the It's not a beer Boos and Boogeymen until What's that?
Hangs up on somebody. Leave a callback.
Please call back. Wow,
Gail. Every time. We gotta tease them
to make them wanna talk. You know what I mean? Right. Playing hard to get.
Mhmm. Yes. Thank you, Will. Thank you for your
story. Yeah. I don't know. Woody, while we're
waiting for our caller to call back. Oh. 0, what which
1 is that? Wait. That's the margarita. That was the powered water, and
that is wow. I am. Wow. Sorry.
Anyway, go ahead. Water? Pirate
r. Pirate water. Pirate r. That makes sense. Okay.
Wow. Okay. Your eyeballs got so wide.
Mhmm. But, yeah, what what are y'all's
thoughts on mediumship and the
ability for them to connect for you, connect you to somebody who's passed
over? What have been your experiences? I
haven't interacted with 1 with that type
of stuff, but I have recently been in in touch with
1, and stuff she told me has been pretty
much fucking spot on ever since she like, everything she said has Beer, like, boom,
boom, boom. Yeah. And it's been pretty wild.
Like, not saying she said everything
exactly how it was gonna happen, but she's like, this is gonna happen
or this may happen like and I guess everything has come together and
made sense. Mhmm. So it's been pretty
wild. And, my wife has has got
some got a reading from her too, and and hers has been kind of
trailing right on that same same line. Everything's
happened kind of just how she's described it. It's been pretty
wild. Yeah. Yeah. Any do you
any of that stuff, could it be the result of
confirmation Boos, or are you saying it's, like, specific stuff that
you that you wouldn't make happen, like, in you know, subconsciously
or unconsciously. No. It's been, like, specific stuff. Like Yeah.
Part of it had to do with my, starting up a new job and and
just a lot of stuff. And Woah. Yeah.
Yeah. And you you had no idea. Like, I mean, we remember
talking with you about that when that was all happening. And No. I don't remember
if I had talked to her before that happened or was, like, after we had
done got it. But, like, there were stuff that she said about a new job
Yeah. And some other stuff that's happened because of this the
job situation, but it's all been, like, pretty much spot on. Yeah.
Wow. And it was it's been pretty wild. Oh, man. What
about you, Joey? I have not had any experiences
with mediums. 1 thing would be
great to open up the call lines for as well is people's thoughts
on mediums. Yes. And if they've had experiences in their
lives, if they, if how they feel
about them, how you know, if they feel like mediums are speaking truth. And
I know, you know, Boos just said, like, he's had good experiences
through him saying, like, they kinda got things right. I
feel there are some great people, mediums out there that have very
strong connections Mhmm. On to other side,
otherworldly things that some people don't. I don't feel like I have
a very strong connection to anything on the
other side, whatever people believe it might be. You know, I'm not
sure about anything of that. I know I have aunts. I have an
aunt that, like, has the biggest connection to the other side.
She ends up moving into haunted house after haunted house after haunted house.
Oh, god. And, like Wow. I you know, we live oh, in
Virginia, I lived kinda in, like, the Civil War belt. You know, pretty much like
most of the battles of the Civil War happened in that area, and my aunt
would buy a house in 1 spot, haunted. You know? There'd be
she she woke up 1 day and found hair in the
bathtub, and both her and her roommate would found hair in the
bathtub. And at 1 night, they both were falling asleep, and
they both woke up at the same time. Oh, thank you for interrupting
me. Hello, caller. Gio, did you hang up
again? No. It's fine. I hit the green button this time. Can
you hear me? Hi. Hey. Hello. Can we get your first name
and where you're calling from? Hi, Britney. Hello,
Britney. How are you?
Hi, brother. That's my sister, everybody. Hi, Britney.
Hi, Dee's brother. Hi, Britney. Sisters. Hello.
Hi. I'm calling from Tennessee,
Hickman. Oh, nice. Down the road from Damien. Yep.
Well, thank you so much for your help. Have, like, a little,
yeah, I just have, like, a little little story.
So I'm sure you guys all know,
Damion friend who passed away, Keith.
I remember the day of his funeral.
We were all, like, hanging out at my mom's house and
sitting in the living Boos. And my mom just
made a comment, and she was like, I wish that there was
just some way that he could, you know, Keith,
could, you know, let us all know that he was okay.
And as soon as she said that, the kitchen
light turned on. And she she she messaged me that
a minute ago, and I don't remember that. Oh. But, you
know, in my opinion, those 3 or 4
days, you know, were so fucking hectic. Like, I don't remember much from those
3 or 4 days. Like, I was so out of it.
So, yeah, when she sent me that, I was like, call in here. Like, I
don't remember that. So wow.
Mhmm. Yeah. That No. I remember it. And, Corey, my husband,
he's also watching. He remembers it too very well. He was the 1 that was,
like, tell him to tell that story.
Yeah. I don't I don't remember. Cat that was in the house in Charlotte?
Uh-uh. No. In White Bluff. Were were you there?
Yeah. And you you were you would be there, Dee. Right? You just don't re
recall it happening? No. I mean, it it if it was after
the funeral, like I said, it was such an emotional day. Like, I
I don't know if you were there or not. The thing is, like, I don't
remember that. Like, I feel like that would be something I would've remember. Cat,
yeah, I don't remember that as well. No. It was I don't think you were
there, to be honest. But we were just sitting there, and it just she just
said, I just wish he could let us know he was okay.
And as soon as she said that, the kitchen light turned
on. And we all, like,
started to cry, like, because it was just instantly, like Oh.
Right. Crazy. Britney Can I
can I oh, go ahead? Can I can I can I no? Go ahead, Gail.
Can I just ask you, how
okay? Let me let's step back a little bit. Do you think
there's any been anything in, like, how you were raised in your
spiritual experience, in your, you know,
religious experience, what what have you, has there been
anything that you feel like kind of primed you for recognizing
the significance of that moment?
No. I mean, maybe. I don't know. Not really. It
just it was no. Okay. It was
just very, like I don't know. Like, that was
I mean, it it's just crazy. Like and the okay. And
so in the light in the kitchen had 1 of those it was like a
turn knob 1. So you had to, like I don't know.
It was crazy. It's like you had to turn the light to come on. It
was like a dimmer light. Yeah. And that just
Yeah. It just came on,
and we all just knew.
Yeah. So that's that in no way is is
actually surprising Cat you're saying that you don't have any
spiritual or religious affiliation, any sort of, I would say, like,
primer to set up fertile ground for an experience like this. Like, there was
no spiritual backing to be like, hey, get ready for this, you
know, in in your life. Right. There
there's more. Again, going back to that Pew Research
study, it was in, like, the sixties
for folks that were non spiritually affiliated for
atheists, agnostics, folks with
no strong religious background. Though those folks
had a higher rate of, you know,
post, passing contact with a loved
1 than folks who are religiously
affiliated. Right? So it's it it might have
been like, no. You know, there was nothing there, and it's like, that actually,
statistically speaking, set you up more, which is which is
wild. Did it
how is this let me ask you this. How how has
this become a memory that you're still holding on to? How has this impacted you
going forward in life, You know, from that moment when you're
when you're having those moments when you're just kind of thinking back and you're, like,
thinking about it, how has it influenced you? Well, I'm
definitely unlike my brother. I don't have a bunch
of, paranormal stuff happen
or to me, like, he has. He got all that, thankfully.
So that just has always been, like,
1 of those things that has stuck out as, like, I I don't I don't
like, a Beer weird instance that happened. Like,
I don't know how to explain it really. Like, it's just what were the chances
that that light was gonna come on right then? You know? I don't know. Mhmm.
It's just always been 1 of those weird things that we've never forgotten.
I don't know. Says something Boos that, like, all of you kind of felt
the same way about what happened instead of, like, 1 of you feeling 1
way, another person feeling another way. But all of you had the same
feeling after the question was asked and the light that you
are just like, no. They're okay. Oh, no. A
100%. Everybody in the room was like, wow.
Yeah. I'm pretty sure I went there, so I don't remember that. I don't recall
that. No. I don't think you were. Because if it
was yeah. It was right after the funeral. You were probably definitely off somewhere
else. Yeah. Kristen, what was your
question? It was it was similar to what Gil
asked. I was just kinda curious, like well, more
so, you know, what was, what was your,
like, belief system prior to
experiencing something like this, which I I'm gathering you have not
experienced Cat you know, you said you're not very much like Damion in that way,
that you haven't experienced this kind of stuff before or, like,
after or at least to that extent. So what was your belief system
leading up to it? Like, are have you always been open to
an experience like that? Did it just not it did
it not make sense at first because you haven't? That's just
kinda what what I was curious about. Yeah. No. I mean, I've
never really, like honestly, just never really thought much
about it, I think, at that point. Right. Because this
was really before Damion like,
way before he was or that I knew was doing, like, the apparel
stuff, like, for real. And so it was
just never really something that was on my
mind, to think about. But when that
happened, I was like, oh, damn.
Like, I don't know. And it's just I've never I've
never, thank god, had any experiences,
like, crazy with paranormal
or whatever, but but that 1 is 1 I will never
forget. Beer kid was, like, never a question of Beer
the light no. Absolutely not. Like, that
light as it was it was like, it had to have
been. Like, the I don't even know. That just
yeah. Yeah. Because if I remember correctly because it's
at some point, I ended up living in that house for a little Beer,
and I think that's the only place I've ever lived that I've never
experienced something paranormal at. Beer.
That's saying a lot. So Mhmm. Right. That's as far as
I can remember, that's the only place I haven't had something that made me just
stop and scratch my head for a second. Like, what what the hell just happened?
Mhmm. So yeah. If if all of us
aren't laughing at that, I'm just saying, like, come on. Like, we know
Damion. I can't have a phone call with this man without some
shit bridging through the phone and happening in my own damn house. Like, I
don't know. Like, this dude Right. Yeah. This dude this dude is
the other end of a black hole collecting paranormal
shit. Just spraying it out. Yeah.
Oh, my. So for damn. I've been
trying to I've been trying to get her to go with me on an investigation.
Oh, what's the hesitation? You'll love it.
No. Look. We can
do all that. Our mom has went to Waverly Hills with me.
Okay? So you can you can go with me somewhere.
No. Look. My
sister and my brother-in-law are they're getting
ready to, go to the Devil's Tramping Ground
with Joey and I Oh, my god. Next week for my
birthday. So, like, they're down for it. Why can't why can't
Damion sister be down for it? So I'm saying Cat this is a direct
challenge. I only
agree because it was your first 100% and watch all the things,
but I will not go physically.
Good deal. Oh. Just Well just call her on the phone while you're doing it,
and then there she can be there electronically. Right.
Send the tour through the phone. Yeah. So No.
Good. No. Well, thank you for calling, Britney. Mhmm. Thank you.
Thank you for calling. You're welcome. Thank you for sharing. Thank you so much. Have
a good night. Mhmm. Sister. Bye. You too. Bye,
y'all. Bye bye. Bye. Bye.
Man, you know what? That made me think of, like do you
guys think, like, when the when it's a family setting
and you lose somebody who who everybody knows or
that everybody's close to, do you think that the ways that
they find to reach out to communicate can differ
based on the person? Mhmm. That's
what Cat saying. Next caller.
Hello. You are on the air. Can we get your first name and where you
are calling from? Can is anybody else?
Hello, caller. Hello, caller. You are live. Can we get your
first name and where you are calling from? I
don't hear nothing. I hear I hear very, very, very
slight mumbles. Is there any way that you would be able to hang
up and then call back immediately, you know, the equivalent of turning it
off and turning it back on? That always works, like, most of the time.
Is there any way you can do that for us? Like a
Nintendo cartridge. Yeah. Works about 53% of the
time. Alright. Alright. We'll have them call Black, see if we can get that
to work. It wasn't me. I didn't I know. I saw your hands
up like this. You were pushing the button. Replay.
I don't know if I hung up last time. I don't think I did
on that first call. We got it's all recorded. Alright. Let's see
if this works better. If not, I don't know.
Hello. You are live. Can we get your first name and where you're calling
from? Nope. Our first 2
calls were were just fine. Mhmm.
Yeah. Hang tight on there. We trouble. Yeah. Little little tech
troubles. Alright. I'm gonna pee my pants a little bit if that
call comes through and it's somebody we know that passed away.
Oh. I didn't even think about
that. I'm just saying. Is somebody trying to reach us from the other side right
now? You never know. Oh. Can you hear us alright? Oh,
I think they hung up. Cat wasn't me. Yeah. They're trying
again. So A trout. There you go. A certain
arm. Come on. Hello? Can you
hear us? Yes. I can hear you. There it is. Know if you
can hear me. We can. Hear you. Yes.
Hear you. We got you. Hear you. Yes. We're
good. Oh, finally. Okay. Thank you for bearing with us to that
struggle. No. Thank you for
bearing with me, Kristen. I am so sorry. I was the 1 that
called before and then hung up. And, yeah, I didn't know it
was going to go through. So I'm sorry to interrupt your story.
Oh, no. You're good. You're good. Okay.
Yeah. No. Thanks. Sorry. So okay.
I wanted to share my story about my
dog and, his last goodbye.
And, Yeah. It I it was it's a heart
full story, so it it's going to be a little bit hard to
relate it. Minding to retail it. Is that how you say
it? Mhmm. So yeah. So
Tolo was, was my dog. He was my partner
in crime. He was my accomplice.
Around that time, I was hiking a lot, which in Mexico might mean,
like, trespassing a lot because
here, everything is kinda owned
by someone. So you just have to be really stealthy.
Yeah. You have to be, like, careful. I mean, people here are kinda Boos.
Like, they don't care as long as you behave and you Mhmm. Because,
you know, the land is so beautiful. Like, the rural Mexico
is great, and people can be really warm. So,
we will do this hiking, just getting away. And,
he I will bring him with me, of course. But then he
was in my life in that other side that even if I wasn't
planning on taking him with me, he will come along. Like,
sometimes he will escape. He Gil he
was a hood beanie dog. Mhmm. Like, he
will, you know, climb the wall, jump the
fence, dig up a hole underneath the fence
and and escape, and then Mhmm. Reach me.
And, You didn't have a choice. You didn't have a choice. He was coming with
you. No. Exactly. He was.
Certainly. By the time my my ride my transportation
was there, he was already there. So it was the hassle to bring him back
home. So I would I would just thank him.
And he was very well liked by people because not
everywhere here is pet friendly, but they would allow him to
be there. And he was so well Beer, and he loved being
there with with me. So, he was my
partner in so many ways for 6 years. That
was the time that he was with me. And another another thing that
started to develop throughout this hiking in
which we have to be very quiet and stealthy,
we will kinda, like, develop this communication
that wasn't verbal. Like, I would
stare at him, or make some
movements with my head, with my eyes, with my hands, and
to communicate to him what we were going to do. Because what I didn't want
is to, you know, whistle in the middle of nowhere or to yell
at him for his you know, like, I didn't want to
because I was a lone woman with a Gil, like,
you know, somewhere that no 1 knew where I was.
And, so we kinda, like, developed this connection.
It was almost, like, psychic. Like, I will stare at him
and and say it in my mind, like, okay. We're gonna do this or
we're gonna take this direction or okay. You can, like,
walk around, but don't go far. You know, like, I Gil try to to
communicate that by looking at completely unspoken. He will get
it. It it was, yeah, it it was like a real
bond, you know, made out of Mhmm. And and this
exploration and this adventures that we were having together.
And, so he was he was the best
dog that I have ever had. I mean, I have had dogs, like, my entire
life, but I haven't had, like, another relationship with
a dog like I have with him. So it it was really
special. So by the time that, he lost
his life, I was having kind of, like,
a crisis in my life. Like, I was finishing a relationship.
I was deciding where to go. I was planning
on flying abroad and and try to,
to get to know the world a little bit more. So I was deciding to
leave. Was deciding to leave Mexico. Mhmm.
So, I was a little bit of what would happen with
him because we did have this relationship
of not being left behind. Like, I couldn't left
him Beer. You know? Like, it it wasn't like that. He was with
me everywhere. But I couldn't bring him with me this
time. It wasn't just not possible. So
because he kinda, like, escaped a lot, I
was kinda, like, concerned what will happen to him if he would eventually
get lost and not be able to go back home because he will do sometimes
things like that. Mhmm. And, I was concerned, you
know, if my mom will be able to handle that on her own.
So I was thinking on all that and all these changes that will happen in
my life and and these endings, the new beginnings.
But then this night, here in Mexico,
the day of La Guadalupana, which is in December, I
cannot remember when. It's something like around 12 December
12, something like that. I I don't recall well. But they will,
like, throw these firecrackers and these,
you know, these Black, these loud sounds and,
the spectacle of the fireworks and
stuff like that. So, every year is a hassle,
of course, because of the Boos and and the noise and how
they get affected by it. Mhmm. But this night,
my dog tried to run away from it, and he
he he couldn't. And I I
cannot tell you because I don't wanna be explicit on this show,
but it kinda like it was a chain reaction
and he lost his life. Oh. And
I wasn't home. I was with my damn
boyfriend at the time, which I was separating from. And my
mom called me and and he was so distraught. She
found my my baby's Joey, you know, my taller
body. And, but, at the moment
of notice, because this is how I am, like, I try to get myself
together the best I Cat. But the first thing
that came to my mind, it was like I
don't know. I hope no 1 gets this the wrong way,
but this was my feeling my personal feeling with this
thing was that he he was setting me free
somehow, you know. Because, I was just
starting this new journey in life, which I didn't know if I when I
was going to come back, what was going to be of me. Like, I didn't
know many things and Yeah. And I was
worried about him staying and leaving him
behind. So Yeah. And my mind, it was
like, okay. So he's doing this, the biggest sacrifice
anyone Cat make, you know, in order to to let me
go, to to to set me free Yeah. In this
new phase. And, so I was
so grateful to him, of course, because, I understood
that I needed to live a good life, you know, in order to
Mhmm. Make it worth it to him. Right.
And, so okay.
III can't have this idea within me, but, of course, the next
couple of days, I was sad and missing him.
And, so I was still hurting even
though I knew it was for the best somehow, some twisted maybe way
for some people, but III knew it was her fate
somehow, like, the destiny Cat we couldn't be apart.
Like, it was just not possible. I was so
missing him so much and, so I started kinda,
like, doing this visualization of
him being by my side, you know, the side that
he used to walk with me when he was alive. So I will
visualize him here here next to me. I
will see him. I will almost be able to feel it. I will I'm not
gonna say almost, like, I could feel the sensation of his
fur, of the point of his ears Cat it was
really soft. I could, recall so easily
his nose, which I I love to pop. And,
you know, his weak, like, everything. He's pale. Yeah.
I know. I yeah. I Yeah. Yeah. I I mean, I
think everyone doing my job. You know? Mhmm. Everyone
everyone listening knows exactly Yeah. Go. What the fuck you were
just talking about about, like Mhmm. Rubbing the soft little ears,
booping the nose. You know? Like, I have Yeah. I have my
kitty cat 1 of my kitty cats right under right under the studio desk right
now. And, you know, I I booped him in the nose when you said that.
I know a 100%. And it's that's the biggest heart
moment. But but please continue. I'm sorry. But we're we're
here with you. We're here with you. No. It's okay.
It's okay. It's it's nice to hear that people can relate to having a
pet. So I did enjoy my pet a lot. You know? I did I did
love him a lot. Like, I truly had this pet
life experience with him. So it was so easy
to vividly remember him and and having him there, you
know, if he was there. It wasn't like I could summon him Cat
to me and he was there. So it kinda, like,
became this thing, like, oh, okay. So you just you didn't go
away. Like, you just kinda, like, transmute yourself, you
know? Now you can be with me everywhere. I can take you with me to
my trip. Like, I can take you with me in my new life. You
know? You you are never gonna be away. You are here still.
So I will do that, like, whenever I felt like I
needed him or or or missed him. And, so he was really
present. So far forward
to maybe 8 months, something like that, and I'm on my trip in Canada.
And, of course, he's
there with me, but not as much as before because I'm discovering
this new life and meeting new people.
Of course, admiring new places, kind of, like, so
beautiful. And then going through all this, I'm not feeling as
miserable as before. I'm happy, seeing
the blessings in life. And I am,
a therapist, and as many therapists will tell you, like, we have
other friends that are therapists. Like, it's it's a it's a circle
of friends. We're not therapists. So
1 of my therapist friend asked me
to go to this therapy in Victoria, in British
Columbia, and it was these horses.
So I didn't know what it was about, to be honest. Like, I I thought
I shared of, you know, therapy with horses. I thought, okay. So we're gonna
ride horses. That's what I was expecting.
So I didn't think much of it. It was like, okay. New adventure.
Let's do it. I go over there. We're going to
this ranch. And then I realized that, no, we're
not riding horses. So I'm like, what's happening?
And they have this circle, this this, made
out of chairs with Cat carp on top. You can
be there comfortable, and then they fit you in this in the circle.
The horses were behind me and this
correct me. III think it's coral. Coran.
Coran. It's the same in Spanish as in English. Like, this, it
Damion the barnyard, but it was like this fenced
area for the horses to be. So the horses are there. They're
not particularly doing anything, like,
nothing flashy. They're just there. And, so
I can see the vineyard, and I can see the mountains around me, of course,
because it's beautiful Victoria. So I can see all
these hills full of trees and open skies, and then
my back is are the horses. So,
we're set Cat and this woman, which I assume it
was the therapist, but she didn't do anything, like, therapeutical. She just
turned to guide us into what was this project
about, the horses. So they will explain to me about these horses
Cat they have a bigger heart than the usual horses
do. So I don't know if I don't know if you
have known about these studies about the heart being
this, it's not electromagnetic, but some sort of like it
like, it can enhance some frequencies. Like,
that's how sometimes collective hysteria might work, you know, because
it's like so many hearts, like, tuning into the
same emotion. So what the horse's job
will be just to be there and to help with their heart
to move whatever is it that they move in
the emotional realm or the energy level. I don't
know. Like, there are so many there are
many layers when it comes to this, you know,
emotion, feelings, thoughts, frequency, sounds, like
but they somehow, like, do something. So she's telling
us all this and how these horses come from all over the world
and, that the only job that we have is to be
here in this group and blah blah blah. And then I just cannot
pay attention to the woman because I start having these feelings. Like,
I start to have these sensations
that are coming like in waves. Like,
if this then the notion was some sort of, like, Boogeymen, Report
of movement. Like, the when I say wave, it'll be like a
quiet calm sea wave. Like,
just very mellow but coming and going and more
going than coming. It was like an expansion of
something. So I'm feeling these things and,
and I start to feel like or like to identify that
something was a miss happening. Like, it's this this
movement is kinda like digging something out of
me. Like like, I'm feeling not
well. You know, I I was restless from my chair. Like, I I
just it was like I was having this palpitations.
I I was having, like, rapid breathing, like, I
couldn't breathe properly or deep enough or like like,
my body was sensing a shift and some sort of
emotion was coming out and I didn't know what it was. I couldn't have Beer.
So here I am trying to focus on the lady,
explaining all these things about the horses and such, and I'm I'm
trying to not Black, like, crazy on my chair, like, I'm suffering because
I felt like I was going through something Mhmm. That I didn't know what
it was. So kinda, like, confused and,
like, trying to pay attention, but I still at the same time, try to
restore what has happened within me and this sensation of the movement.
I turned around and I started to see these horses,
like, coming and some of them, like, staring
at me. You know, like like, then all of a sudden, I realized
that they knew what they were doing. You know, like, the
the Boogeymen that they were doing, like, the coming and going and this is
something that the lady was explaining. Like like, we will see them, and if
you don't feel anything, you just see horses being horses
just, like, coming and going and eating grass and just staring at
you and that's it. But because I was feeling like this
kinda like waves of energy or this ex
expansion of something, I didn't know what it was. And,
and I see them moving. And when they move, I feel something.
So I was like, oh, okay. So it's just damn. So I'm
trying to, like, look around. And by this time, I
I was sweating. I was having, like, heart palpitations. I
was, like, not feeling well at all. And,
and the lady I remember, she told me, like, oh, you're starting to feeling it.
Right? And I was like, yeah.
Yeah. I don't know what to do. I gotta ask, like, does it
it seems like you have
have, throughout your life, had a very deep connection
to, to nonhuman people.
Right? Like, I I always like to call, our little fur Boos,
like, the like my son's sitting under my desk and my other one's sitting
downstairs right now. You know, I Datta and Salem, my my 2
babies, my 2 loves, you know, they're they're they're nonhuman
people. They are people. Like, anybody that has
ever had the the most beautiful experience of having these little fur babies
come into our lives, we know for a fact they are literal
persons. Right? They are literal people, and
anybody that, denies otherwise deserves, a knuckle
sandwich. You know?
Yeah. Swear to god. Yeah. But, you know, I will go, like
yeah. I I would like to say that because, you
know, when you say people, like, we we do think of
humans. But I will say it's like a, in my case, it's like a
different realm of existence that I know very
little of. Right? Like, I don't know what my cat used to see. I don't
know what they used to experience, like, in the sense way, you
know. Like, I don't know how how well his inner life was.
Mhmm. But but he with me somehow. So this
Yeah. Empathy that we get with animals, it's it's an opening
of your mind, you know, somehow. Like, you start to to know that you
can communicate with others and you can relate
feelings without words. You just This is true. You Cat
exist or, almost I said.
This is this is something that I'm absolutely, this is
something that I'm absolutely loving about your call, and I do I
do, honestly, you deserve a whole episode, and I will, Joey and I will work
on that at some point. It's like having a word. It. I can I
can only I can only volunteer our channel? I'm sure other folks,
and I'm sure Kristen and and and Debus would also like
Cat. But, but but, but I
do I do know we need to make space for other calls, and I do
wanna say that, like, you spearheaded, you brought in, you pioneered,
the realization of, like, you know, these deep,
post passing context can happen with, you
know, with with our fur children as well, with our fur siblings
as well, however you wanna classify them. The ones that are
not, the ones that don't have Social Security
cards, you know, but are people in our lives.
Right? So, like, our little fur babies that are running
around, you know, we kiss 4, 000 times a day.
If any if anything Right. If if if any living thing is
going to have a connection to us, it it will be them. And you you
really pioneered bringing in the the thoughts and the concepts around,
post contact connection to the story. That you're
right. Could I look, but I do have time to finish my
my my my story. Right? Of course. Of course. Yes, please. Yeah.
Yeah. Or Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Please, please. I thought you were saying that. Oh,
yeah. We have other covers. Yeah. Okay. Yeah. Go ahead. I mean, I'll go ahead.
And, yeah. But but thank you, Gail. Thank you for saying that.
Yeah. I mean, being someone
that is able to feel things, it does open the the
the world to other things. So here I am, like, feeling this
sensation, not knowing what's going on. But then something
else shifted. Like, I could feel on my left
side, I I could tell that Tolo was there. Like, my dog
was there. Tolo was there. And I didn't know why he was there
because I hadn't summoned him. You know? I hadn't done the the visuality,
the the work of calling him in memory type.
I I didn't do that. He was just there. And,
and he was so present Cat, he was insane that I couldn't see
him, but I knew he was there. So I'm there, like,
confused again. You know? Also, like, I think confusion.
I know it's not, like, a comfortable feeling, but confusion is a
great gateway to a flood of sadness.
So I'm in the midst of this confusion
of of what's going on. And then Tolo is there,
and I'm like, why are you here? So and then these feelings
of these waves coming and going, and I'm feeling, like, distraught.
And and I'm trying to figure everything out
when I I cannot recall, like, the whole process
of it. But at some point, like, this digging of
what is happening, it came to me so
clear. And I could send him saying,
I want you to let me go.
And that's what he was telling me. I
I am asking you to let me go. I want you to let me go.
And he didn't say why. He didn't he didn't give any reason.
It was just that clear message that I want
you to let me go. I want to go.
Oh. So then he's saying this, you know, and I'm, like, feeling
miserable inside, like, what? For real? And
and I'm just like, no. What? But why? You
know, I thought we were Yeah. Pals, you know, like lifetime pals and
buddies. Like, why are you saying this? And then I I
send this need of him, like, this almost begging.
Oh, please just let me know. And,
and then I'm so Cat, so sad for him because I mean,
for me, of course, because I was going to
be left behind now. You know, I was the 1 that is
going to be left behind. But there Beer is,
like, asking me to set him free.
So Yeah. I'm going through this and these emotions continue
and the horses continue doing the same. And then I'm I'm
feeling so bad. I remember, like, this palpitation,
the sweating, like, the the Yeah. The stress level,
like, rising up a little bit. And then I'm trying
to look for some solace and, my gaze
kinda like I looked up and then I start to see this
hill full of trees. So beautiful. I I was reminded of,
like, the place that I was in and then this ranch in the middle of
beautiful Victoria. And, I mean, the trees
with my III don't know how how very
sooners are you going to to relate to this, but it's like a
vision, almost like a in my mind's eye, I can
see this light coming from the Boos.
You know, like this. Yeah. It wasn't a tower of,
like, going up to the sky. It was like this light
within the forest that it was so intense. It was white
and so intense that it kinda, like, project projected itself
out of the leaves of the trees. And I'm looking at that
like, what? And I can see also, like,
this it could be depicted as, like, spirits, you know,
like this white Mhmm. Animals going through there, you
know, like, being rushed and and,
I'm just going into this. I understood it
was a source. It was the source. Like, they
were going back into a spirit.
So I want to see this.
Yeah. We'll we'll do have a little delay.
Yeah. So sorry about that. So,
damn. Yeah. That's a lot. I'm just gonna That's a lot. I'm
gonna give you an honest I'm gonna give you an honest to God,
I'm gonna give you an honest to god damn. I I believe I know who
this is. Your first name starts with a p. Are you calling from
Mexico right now? I am. I don't know if I'm looking for
that. So yes. I No. No. Conga you you got well,

going to message you on the the Black Cat Report,
you know, the the profile where where we've where we've been talking.
You, my friend, you have more content, than we
can fit into into calls coming
in on a regular basis. And I say that not because what you're saying
isn't special and important. I think that it actually deserves
a more yeah. What you're saying deserves more focus
than, 5 minute calls, you know, kind of
coming in and everybody sharing little snippets. There's a there's a a
depth to your story that I I feel like we need. I'm also
getting, lovingly harassed by folks that are like, we're

in, Joey. I know. But at the beginning, we were talking about
Star Wars movies and how Damion has not seen any, so we're all
gonna rib him about that 1.
But how many Stormtroopers does it take to change a light
bulb? Oh, boy. None because they're
all on the dark side.

So
Hello. You are live. Can we get your first name and where you're
calling from, please? Oh, thank you. You're welcome. Thank
you, Andrea, from, Birmingham, Washington.
Could you say that 1 more time? I'm so sorry. If there's if
there's any chance that you have us on playing in the
background, could you mute us or exit out of the tab
and then and then chat? Because I think we might be getting some weird
weird audio feedback here. Yeah. I'm in the mountains, and
there's nothing around me right now besides that. So
There we go. That's bad. Oh, yeah. Not okay.
So I was, I talked with Gil. Is Gil
here? He's the 1 talking to you. Or yes, my friend. That is me. Say
hi to you right now. Hello. My name is Gil.
I can see you guys on your YouTube, but I I apparently,
technology is not my friend here. And I'm
sorry that I'm is it? Crashing in at the moment, but,
I was asked to join tonight. And, I
missed the topic, unfortunately, but, hi.
Hello. So so I believe, so
a while back, I posted and this is a message for, honestly,
everybody across all of these different channels, across RKB,
across, Paranormal Girl, across Black Cat Report, across
CNN Live, ABC, NBC, Fox News,
anybody that's posting this story. Right? We'll post a
poll about 2 weeks into the month, and we'll say,
hey, insert question relating to whatever we're gonna
have an episode about. And if somebody responds yes
to that, we're gonna follow-up with you. And so the question that I reached out
to you with or that you responded to and then I reached out to you
with was, have you ever had contact with a
loved 1 who's passed on? Very simple. I'm
not asking yeah. I there wasn't details about how did you have
contact, in what ways, in what methods, who wasn't. Nothing like that. Just
very simple, have you? And,
and you replied yes. And that's why I hit you up yesterday in
the 11th hour, and I was like, hey, girl. Can you cop on? That'd be
awesome. So so yeah.
But I but I do know you have more of a backstory. You've you've got
a you've got a tank load of stories behind you. But,
you know, I I believe that we all do, and I'm very, sorry
that I couldn't, be online so I can see all
you guys and things like that. But, yes, thank you,
Gil. I just couldn't help but, like, it was fun.
Like, I I love the black cat Report, and it's like, okay.
So these people kinda get me. I am a Spectrum
doula, and, I,
do birth, postpartum, and death, and spirituality.
And I've worked for a funeral home as a doula the
past, 5 years 4 years. And, you
know, like, like, like, bring it. What questions do you
have? Like, you know, it's just it's just it is what it
is. Yeah. You know? And and,
so have I connected with people? Abso
fucking lutely. You know, like, you know, I do
green burial. I do green burial. I'm a sick burial tender.
I believe in, when people, transition
in any way, shape, or form that you know?
Especially when, in the end of life transition,
you know, you put them on dry eye, you have 3 days till the soul
can leave the body, which might be in the heart,
which is very RKB, but typically through the
crown. And, yeah, like, people talk to
me all the time. Shit.
What what's a story you can tell us? Is what it is.
Yeah. What's the what's the most interesting story that you
Joey from DCR? What's, what's an
none as much interesting, but maybe the most recent story that you've had,
was was somebody connecting with you? Oh, you know,
it's it's it's, again hi. My
name is Andrea Fitzgerald, Norfolk Spectrum Jewel. I'm from Bellingham,
Washington. Oh, just my gosh. Like, it's
just, you know, just doing your own thing, and then, you
know, you see something in your awareness
Mhmm. And someone speaks to you, you know,
like or something shifts, like, you know, like,
things can move in a room or you know? And
Yeah. It happens often. Yeah. And
and and if you're aware of it So so let me ask And you don't
what's the question it. What's the
so so I actually am, in a very, very
odd way in the way life life is life is incredible about being
on, with the way that it squiggles around like a corkscrew between so many different
routes. I've actually been close
to, at a point in my life, a death doula,
in Tampa, Florida. She is from New
Zealand originally. Y'all are in a very small community.
There's a slight chance you actually know a New Zealand death
doula. I'm not gonna I'm not gonna I probably do.
Yeah. I I think there's, like probably do. Like There's, like,
30 of y'all in the United States. You know her. But we're
not gonna call you out because, some of your practices,
though, just in history, are not
legally just at the moment. And I 100% fully,
fully respect the work that you do and the the, I
wanna say, the gap that you fill in in society.
Society has a complete pit. Western society, especially
American Western society, has a complete, utter
pitfall when it comes to how we
process letting loved ones pass on. Mhmm.
We are shit. Like, you wanna talk about showing
your age? We show our age. America shows its
age as a country, as a developing culture. We're not
a culture, but we are a developing culture.
America shows its age and shows its developing culture when it comes to how we
handle death. We're a shit show with it. Know,
when you
know, when you when you compare to other cultures of the regions
of the world that spend 1, 000 of
years in very intimately developed communities
developing their process of grieving of culture, you know what I'm saying, of
of passing on. We ain't got shit on Cat. And death
doulas are at the full front like, they they are on the
front line. So when you say full spectrum Mhmm. I know what you're hinting at.
I'm calling you out, my friend. I I know I
know how far is it that, can go. I've got lots of things in my
tool belt to talk about. Yeah. Yeah. So
so I wanna ask you here. I I guess I wanna, like, focus
in because, nobody would be surprised if you had a 1, 000, 001
stories. Unfortunately, you know, again, like, like, a
last super fucking awesome caller, we're gonna have to give you a whole
goddamn episode. Sorry, but that's what you get. You Cat you get the full
premium spiel. Alright? I've been interviewed so many
times. Well, that would be awesome. You know, I would love contact. I would
love to talk to her. I would absolutely love to talk to you, Andrea. Well,
go down go down the rabbit hole of my Instagram. You know, like
Yeah. Go ahead. The amount of the amount of times I've had coffee and
talked with the deaf doula. Like, this shit is gonna go on forever, and we're
all gonna be best friends. Now I have to ask you I'm gonna
have to ask you. I want you to pick 1 Yeah. Just 1
Mhmm. Of your favorite I'm so sorry. I'm
not my face isn't here. But It's all good. It's all
good. We can hear you. You're you're very expressive with your tone. We can we
can hear your face through your voice.
So I mean it. I mean it. So folks that folks that speak
well, you can do that. Right? And so,
Well, I'm a bass player and a singer. So
See, but I Oh, yeah. Everybody left.
Now, so so I I have to ask you,
if you could if you can, if you would please pick
1 story, just 1, of
someone who is the closest to you, emotionally
in life. It could Beer, a little fur baby. It could be a
feather baby maybe. It's a gray parrot. I don't know. Those motherfuckers live forever.
It could be a scale baby. It could be a a great leather
sea turtle that's lived for a 150 fucking years. You know what I'm
saying? Any it doesn't have to be a nonhuman
connection, and I I swear to god, III mean that. Or it could be
a human connection, a a person connection, a personal
connection to a living entity. That's how it should be worded, I think.
If you could pick Cat 1 story of a
post post, post passing contact.
You know? You're in you're in the the what we what we think is the
living world, and and they've passed on, right, whoever
they happen to be. If you could give us 1
story, would you give us that? Would you deliver that
to us? Because I know you got a million. Sure. I'm I I'm just trying
to go down the rabbit hole of the the many people I've been called
to assist. And I like Mhmm. If if if I was,
like, 18 I'm 40 I'm 48 now.
Right? And it's like, are you kidding? Like, okay.
So I've been doing this, like, clairvoyantly and,
okay. So I could pick my family. I could pick,
people that I've done, my
birth, postpartum, and death work with.
Let's see. The most poignant, you know,
was this young man, 19,
and, gang banger, all that. And Yeah.
Yeah. I'm just like okay. So in my
experience, you know, I've I've,
again, when I was 18, asked me what I'm Probably not
this. I wanted to be a lawyer or a full but,
no. But this is Report because something thing is is that
Something happened at 18. Oh, I'm just trying to figure out
Cat yeah. Yeah. No. No. No. I'm saying this is why it's so significant. I'm
sorry. Sorry for interrupting. Like, this happened so
early that it's, like, of course this That's why I went Yeah. The
delay. I'm my my apologies. I'll shut up. Okay. So the first thing I would
like to are you Gil? Are you Gil? I'm totally
Joey. No. That's Gil. I'm Joey. Oh,
great. Thank you. Okay. So my my first my first response
is active listening. Active listening is, like, it's, being
comfortable with silence. And, so
the I have many okay. So,
you know, like, it's just, can you bring me back to the Kristen? Because,
like, you got me no. As as a
doula, apparently, I'm a clairvoyant and
clairaudient, which I don't coin and
don't, make money off of that. However,
when I, like, I I have been called
to assist, birth, postpartum, and death, All
life transition. And where
I feel, you know, it it's a blessing.
Take it or leave it, whatever you call that. Like, I'm not religious. I'm
very spiritual. However, like okay.
So Mhmm. Joey, like, you're asking I'm
telling you, like, I've literally, went
to a person's place of,
where they died, brought them back to
our annex, put them in the cooler, all that kind of
thing, and, then dress them,
for their people to, lay them in
honor. And I'm a huge fan of that, and that's why
So I think that we've got a period of that I I'm so sorry.
Sorry. I was trying to bring it back to the original question, which was around,
like, an actual, like, a singular story.
I feel like everybody's, like, kind of, like, on board with understanding. So
what's the original question? Uh-oh.
Gil went mute there. You you back on, Betty?
No. He's mute. Yes. Can you hear me? Black on. I'm so so
sorry. I'm so sorry. I'm navigating between all the devices over
here. I just wanted to pull it back to to
the question of a singular of a singular experience. Because because,
again, like, you know, a death doula I think it was going
down that rabbit hole. Okay. Please continue then.
No. I I yeah. I picked, I've,
as a doula at a funeral home.
Past 4 years, I worked through the pandemic, never got sick or
the shit Cat shit, whatever. And,
this particular man was a man that
is largely known in in my
as a bird guy. Like, he he just was, like, kinda
knew everything. And he had a heart attack in his yard,
shit and pissed himself, picked him up, and then I
dressed him for his family, and they gave me a picture
of him. And
he always wore a leather jacket Paranorm with, like, the sleeves
inside. And I'm telling you, like, brass tacks.
Like, when somebody is dead, you know,
like, when you're trying to dress them this or that, it's
it's, you know, it's interesting.
However Yeah. This person, day
2 day 2 on his, the sun, like, his
his soul was leaving his body. I'm trying to put this
goth darn leather jacket on him, and he
grabbed my arm. He's dead, but he's, like
Oh. You know? Like Holy shit. Oh, yeah. And it was
like and my my coworker was
like we both looked at each other and were like, oh, hi.
You know? Like, it was it was it was very,
lovely and, but kinda weird.
Yeah. I'm just saying, like, like, my point is is
that back to this I don't even know. Like, I'm
sorry that I it was too hard to get into this conversation. I wanted
to be present with my face. But, you know, I I
Cat tell you many stories for the record. You know, like,
the thing is is that, in my experience
is being open and mindful
and, like, our people talk to us no matter
what. And this person didn't know me shit from peanut butter. You know
what I mean? And I just put his leather jacket on and adorn
him, you know, and and and lay and laid him an honor.
You know? Yeah. I did that. Like, that's
it. That's it. You know? And and it's it's a
huge, huge honor, and I hope I answered the
questions properly. You But You you know?
You you 100% did. You know, you don't have to think you don't have to
you don't have to think too much about it. You know? Yeah. Like, we
don't have to think too much about it. Like, just
don't. Sorry. No. That's
suck. No. Thank you for thank you for that. That was great. That was a
I did. Cat was a great it definitely shocked me when
you reached in and we're just like when
when you reached down with your story and we're like, oh, grab arms. Like, woah.
Okay. That story that story popped off crazy. And and and and what you're saying
too is, like, that was an honor and a blessing. And and and and what
you're saying too is, like, that was an honor and a blessing and to I
guess, for you to share that moment with the the spirit
of the person or afterlife or whatever. You know? Yeah.
Yeah. To they shared that with you to be to be an amazing part
of you. Well, and and, thank you.
However, like, I I was a kid I've been
a birth and postpartum doula for
17 Beer, and my dad died in 2015. And I
learned, like, I'm a sacred burial tender.
You know, I have so many things under my Boos belt, like, you
know, like, we can get this done spiritually and
holistically, and we can take care of our own. And and
that's basically where I'm at and within birth. You
know? Just it it's
simple. And that's where I feel people,
take it Boos legitimately. You know? And it's like, well,
we can just, you know, we can just make it a nice
meal, and we understand we're
having a birth or we're having a death Mhmm. Or
whatever life Kristen. And we can it can be
very simple is what I'm getting at. Yeah. Super
simple. Yes. And everybody like, you know, I'm an
advocate I'm an advocate for
that. You know? And, like, no upselling. Did
I answer that? You you did. Yeah. You You did, and it was
great. Would you mind actually I know I think a lot of listeners, if you're
okay with it, would you mind sharing your Instagram for us
just like you can say it at, you know, at your handle, if you're okay
with the sharing with us for our listeners? Oh, absolutely. I'm
sorry. Like I said earlier, like, I I my face isn't here. I'm
trying going down the rabbit hole. However,
my business 1 is Golden Willow Doula.
And, yeah, just like it sounds like a tree and
doula. But, you know, I get it. And that's the thing.
Like, and, apparently, I'm an anomaly.
But it's it's it's like I said like I said before,
it's super simple. It's it's that's the thing. It's so
simple. There's Yeah. I don't know. Like I
want I wanna give you a shout out. My heart. You know? I wanna give
you a shout out while we're on the air, while you're still here. And I
I wanna let you know Cat, and I'm I'm
I hit you up on Instagram. You should get a message. I'm gonna call you
after the show if you're available, and I'm gonna send you the way that
my audio has been messing up on my end tonight. I'm so sorry if
there's been anything awkward, but I did at some point. Y'all
check the cameras. I I put my phone down or I put my
headphones down on top of my phone so that people could hear what was going
on in the room, and I recorded it. You'll hear why I was
disoriented. Like, I just came down from LSD. So,
like but, no, I I wanna nothing. But
but no. But but I
wanna give a massive I wanna give a massive
shout out to, to all the death
doulas, right, that are out there in the
world. The practice is gorgeous.
Like, if you wanna talk about some of the most beautiful
moments in life, it's
to experience the passing of a loved 1 via the
care, the the guidance, the understanding, and the direction
of, of a damn good deaf doula. Like, it is
1 of the most needed things in Kristen culture that
I would say because, hey. Guess what? We're all gonna fucking die
someday. It's gonna happen. Everyone you know and love,
including your fucking self, we're all gonna fucking die. I'm sorry if
that's breaking news, and I'm sorry we try to forget that all the time. Die,
dear 1. It's going to happen, and a good death doula
brings in something that every single
culture, religion, and faith on the planet
has recognized and developed hyper accurate
practices for Cat fit into a complex cultural
schema. Everyone on the planet has
recognized Cat, and modern Kristen society I don't just
wanna call it out because it's modern Western society, but modern
Western society has neglected this, has tried to
ignore that death takes place. You
know, we try to act like age is a crime committed against us.
And, like, that's a that's a quote from a philosophical book, but it's the
truth. And what death doulas do
is is they bring in a a an absolutely
beautiful transition for folks in their moment of
their their biggest needs. So you are the per
you are the perfect person to, And I know you do more than death I
think but that's a big deal. You were the perfect person to end this show
Boos, so I wanna give you a round of applause and say thank you for
what you do and what you provide to folks.
Can I just ask real quick Black you? Yeah.
Before before we let you go. So I I have people in my chat trying
to find you on Instagram. Would you just so sorry. Would you be able
to spell out, yeah, just 1 more time? Give us that
at on Instagram because people are very interested. Go ahead. I
don't have an app. Like, I don't even have a website. I'm all on referral.
Have an Instagram. No. I didn't I I said I don't
have a website and things like that or an app. Oh.
It's golden willow doula or Andrea
Fitzgerald. However, thank you so much for, Of course.
Cat. And it's it's the truth. And if guess what?
This is the thing. Like, it's so simple. We're
only going back 50, 60 years
with birth and death. Like, we bring it
home. We take care of our own, and it's not
scary. You know? Yeah. That's what I do.
And that's it. I very much appreciate it. And I'm sorry
I couldn't, like, show my face here, but, like, go on my
or Mhmm. Well But, you know,
like, all my friends tell me to do this Instagram thing, and I don't
like social media. That's why. Here's But I don't the deal. I'm
I'm gonna hit you up I don't soon. We'll we'll we'll set up a time.
I'm gonna hit you up soon. This is what I actually do in my professional
life. I help people with with digital things. This is not a dry
run for my own advertisement. I promise. I'm just gonna hit you up because I
honestly believe in what you're doing. Kristen, whatever
contact information she gives to me that she
wants to share with the public, I'm going to pass on to you. Mhmm. And,
you know, which within the hopes of already here. Right. Of,
hey, everybody that's out there, we will post it as a story. It'll
have a 24 hour run. So anybody that is out there right now
or a post or a reel, whatever you wanna do, Kristen. It's it's your channel.
But, I don't snail mail. Who
the fuck cares? But the point is, whatever whatever
she gives to me, I'll pass on to you as a nice call to action
for everybody that you can pass along to your friends and stuff.
Awesome. Well, we could do it now, but this is gonna end in a moment.
Yeah. Yeah. We're Well, just, like, goldenwillowdula@gmail.com.
Beautiful. Okay. Thank you so much. Thank you, Andrea. I really
appreciate it. Alright. Thank you. Yeah. Thanks to you. Bye.
Sorry. I couldn't be there in person. Oh, yeah. Oh, it's not okay.
No. None of us are. None of us are. Good
night. Good night. Alright. Heidi,
real quick. Her so her name was golden
willowdoula, and it's
D0ULAD0ULA Cat
Gmail. Mhmm. Alright? Yeah. I'm a reach out to her too. She's
awesome. She's freaking awesome. That's cool. Yeah. It
wouldn't be AB3 episode without Gil going on
a nice long rant for us. Thank you, Gil. We love it. What the hell
did I do? What the hell? Thanks a bit, Blake.
Oh, man, you guys. Well, I think we are at
that time. Yes. Mhmm. Thank you.
Yeah. I have 1 last word. But I guess I'll hold out. Do you wanna
hold on to it? This is the the emotional 1. Right?
A little bit. Yeah. Yeah. You know what? I'll I'll leave it to
you. It's up to you, man. Mhmm. Gil, tell us about
episode 5, and I'll I'll decide by by then. Episode
Cinco. Pippa's go.
Now episode episode 5 is
going to be an interactive, game show
style, Colin, for folks that love Art Bell, for
folks that know Art Bell and the old Coast to Coast episodes. There
was a classic, super, super, super classic
thing that he would play on random nights, which is what
every night of our show is, and it is called Truth
or trash. It's very simple. What the deal
is is any caller can call in, and they tell
a story to us and to y'all out
there listening. And we then
keep that caller on the line. They they stick there with us.
People in the chat are going to, you know, message in, and they're gonna
say, hey. That story was real. Hey. That story was trash. You know? Was the
truth? Was it trash? We're all gonna vote on
it. We're gonna set a time limit, say, 2 minutes, 3 minutes,
totally arbitrary number at this point. You'll find out more when you tune in. Now
we're gonna set a time limit. Everybody votes, and everybody has a
window to ask a question. Right? We're gonna ask
the caller a question live on air. So the goal of
this is lie through your fucking teeth or tell
us an insane truth. Some
crazy fucking shit that happened to you. You accidentally
ramped off the Statue of Liberty on a Ski Doo. You know? Like,
I don't know what the fuck happened. You know? But you actually fucking did
that shit, and you're trying to convince us otherwise.
Now we're all gonna say truth, or we're gonna say trash. When
we get to a certain number, we're gonna say, alright. Polls
are in. Truth or trash. The vote is truth or the vote is
trash. You come at us and you say, ah, it's actually
true. All the losers have to take a drink. It's a drinking show, by the
way. I don't know if you noticed the first word in the name of the
the show. But we're gonna take a
drink. So call in and trick us, whether it's truth or whether
it's trash. But this is an interactive show. So if you have been listening and
you've been like, fuck. I don't have stories for these topics.
Now is your chance. Lie through your fucking teeth. Pick your
favorite fucking host and just work your ass off
for the next, you know, 29 days, 30 days, whatever,
to convince them. Lie to them and be like, I knew that
motherfucker was a fool. So that
is truth or trash. How much more time do you need, Boos? I've been over
here trying to stretch this out for you. Ram stand
Beer. Deboos. You got this. Alright.
Okay. So, of course, all you guys
know about Keith. For those that may not know,
who hasn't listened before, Keith was my best friend of
20 years growing up. Police officer in our hometown,
shot and killed in the line of duty in 2011. For the
longest time, I went by his grave, like,
every fucking week for, like, 3 or 4 years
straight every single week. And, of
course, there would be random things that would happen that would be like, well, I
wonder if that was him showing me something. But I
remember distinctly having 2 very vivid dreams
that involved him. 1, I actually
sent you guys in the chat, you know, a couple of months ago that popped
up on my Facebook memory that I I Boogeymen about, but, luckily, I've recorded it
on Facebook. Mhmm. And I was like, oh, shit. I forgot about
that. This one's not really the emotional 1. The the the
second 1, I'll I'll tell, is kind of emotional. But in this
dream, me and him were doing what we love to do. We
was going out. We were checking out this abandoned house that we heard was
haunted, and some chick had gotten murdered there. We went
in, you know, checked out this room,
seen some something written on the wall where the girl
supposedly was murdered. Seemed written on the wall,
beware of her smell or something. I'd have to go back and find it. Or
or it was something really Beer. And then we suddenly said, oh,
it does smell like that. Then we hear somebody from outside hollering
at us, and we look out the window, and there's a woman outside. And she's
like, hey. Bring me the brick from that Boos. And we bring her this brick,
and we come back inside. And, like, Keith just, like,
disappears. Then he reappears out of the same bedroom
wearing totally different clothes, and it was really weird. And
I don't know really what that meant if it was just
him saying, hey. Continue doing what you're doing with the paranormal. I
don't know what that was, but the 1 that really got me, we were back
in high school. And, you know, I've been out of school
22, 23 years now, right back
in high school. And we're me and him's walking down the hall, you know,
just chit chatting. And I'm you know, I remember just looking
over at him talking, and we come up on a couple of our other friends
and they're just like, man, who are you who are you talking to? I'm like,
what are you what are you talking about? You're just you're not talking to anybody.
I was like, yeah. Well, I'm talking to Keith. And
they're like, dude, Keith's not there. I'm like, what do you mean? And
I'm like, he's right he's right fucking here, dude. And they're like, no, man. He's
he's been gone. And I look over and he
just he just, like, smiles at me and he
just, like, fades away. And,
Like, I remember waking up kinda like this, like, choked up. Like, what what
did that mean? Was he letting me know, hey. I'm
good. You know? Hey. Don't forget about me. Like, I always wondered, like,
what that dream meant. And
that 1 just always really stuck with me. I didn't I've never forgot that 1.
The other 1, I kinda forgot. But that 1, I just never it
was like it was in high school, and that was what was really weird
because he got killed, like, 10 years after we were out of school.
It was just I don't know. It was really strange, and I never really knew
what that meant. And, you know, there's times where
something random will happen. I was like, man, that's gotta be Keith doing something to
mess with me. And my wife will my wife never had never met
him. You know, we didn't get together for me and her got
together 10 years after he died, and she's like, I I can tell when he's
around. And but
that that dream, I I Cat never forget it. Like,
clear as day, he just looked at me, smiled, and just faded. Like, when they
said he wasn't there. And it was just
it it always just stuck with me.
So, yeah, that was that was that. So,
anyway Thank thank you for sharing that, Damion. Yeah. Thank
you, man. Oh, no. Seriously. It was a good 1 to
to take this episode out. It was gonna always gonna
be a special episode. I I Yes. I did
not expect to be so moved, you
know, right away and then, right here at the end too.
So thank you, Damien.
Yeah. Yeah. Cat means a lot that you would share that with us.
And, you know, it's it's an it's a neat dream. I think
it's neat. You know? If that's if that was the last
visit, if that was the final goodbye. Mhmm.
Mhmm. That's cool. Yeah. That's really cool.
There's there's a lot there's a lot to unpack there, and I'm I'm
very grateful that we've got it, we've got it recorded.
We've got it on audio. It's something that can be
replayed and regone through. Right.

that's how that dream is to you, man. Mhmm. And that's to a lot of
these folks. Right.
