3:56
What are your thoughts on everything?
4:00
I think there's a lot going on, and [laughs] as usual, uh, you know, I wish it was simple.
4:06
I wish it was something very straightforward, where it was like, "It's this.
4:11
Let's move on.
4:12
Everybody can go home.
4:13
Have a nice day." But I think that oftentimes these things are more convoluted because there are different players involved.
4:24
And at the moment, I think it's multi-pronged.

42 MINS LATER

46:09
... who Tim Taylor is?
7:08
Mm.
7:09
And we talk about Femi Ajiboye's missed tackle number of 18 in that one specific game.
7:14
Darius has made 10 people miss on his carries the entire season.
7:19
So you've got two different sides of the coin where it goes back to December where Minnesota made the decision to commit monetarily and e- even more importantly, the opportunity for Femi Ajiboye, which is why Femi ultimately left was it wasn't necessarily about the money, but he wanted the opportunity to show that he can be an RB1 in the Big Ten, and Purdue gave him that opportunity.
7:40
And when Minnesota elected to take Darius back after a season that was just destroyed by injuries, y- there was gonna be the talk of, "Well, can he finally stay healthy?" Well, guess what? He's not healthy.
7:54
And that is something that we continue to talk about with PJ on a given week, even after the game in West Lafayette where we're in the bowels of the West Lafayette's stadium out there.
8:04
We're asking him, I mean, Darius isn't even listed on the injury report at this point, which I know I've got thoughts and feelings about that.
10:43
It sucks, it's awful, but it's not good enough.
32:02
Right.
32:03
And part of the allure of Drake Lindsey isn't just that he's 6'5" and he's got an arm, it's that they put so much on him in a collegiate offense that is very rare, where there has been-- We've talked with the coaches.
32:16
We've talked with Drake Lindsey about this.
32:17
They'll send two play calls into the huddle to him.
32:20
He's got the ability to adjust the run call and the play call at the line of scrimmage, and that is where the offensive coordinator, Greg Harbo, loves to watch guys like Sean McVay, loves to glean things from people like Ben Johnson.
32:33
And you've got to have a quarterback that's mentally gifted enough to be able to decipher between all that.
32:38
Now, this was a Michigan defense.
NordoHOST
35:56
What, what are you liking about the TJ Thomas, Darius Taylor one-two pop at running back?
Alejandro Zuniga
Alejandro ZunigaCORRESPONDENT
1:27
What happened? What's the 10,000 foot view of what went wrong in week two versus what went so well for that unit in Seattle.
1:36
In theory, the strength of the entire team is the defensive line.
1:41
And that's where in three games where the defensive line got off the bus, they have had a lot of success and they won the football game.
1:48
In the game against Mississippi State, Mississippi State's offensive line dictated tempo, dictated physicality, and they ran the ball down the throats of Minnesota for 250 yards, to which that was among the most disappointing defensive line performances I've seen in 10 years of Fleck.
2:04
And that is where the question was going to be, next opportunity when you go into a difficult place to win, like we talked about Husky Stadium is, how do you respond? And from their defensive ends of Anthony Smith, Carter Menz, TJ Bush, to their interior guys who there's more questions about, such as Riley Sunrum, they beat Washington up front for 60 minutes.
2:25
And that is where they played, I thought, a lot more aggressive style of football where we're against Mississippi State.
2:32
They kind of let Mississippi State come to them, which if you've watched anything about the Cowbells so far, you cannot do that, which is why Mississippi State's got a rank to win at home against Mizzou, went into South Carolina, beat them, and they came up to Minneapolis and did what they did.

And
0:37
Give us an overview of what Minnesota is looking forward to this weekend in welcoming Michigan to Minneapolis.
0:45
I appreciate you having me on.
0:46
I would tell you the first thing we're looking forward to is Fleck just washing his face off from the whole Blood Brothers incident, which is now never that I think P.J. Fleck and TMZ and the New York Post would be involved in a positive thing.
0:59
But here we are where that moment goes viral after the game.
1:02
So, yeah, this is a Minnesota team that's had an interesting first month where they've absolutely obliterated their FCS and their MAAC opponent.
1:10
And then an SEC team came into town in Mississippi State and they beat the brakes off them in the first half.
1:15
And then Minnesota never really got off.

10 MINS LATER

10:57
And then who are the guys out that, that Drake Lindsay is going to be targeting when you're looking at receivers, tight ends, other passing talent.
12:02
So does it surprise you much that this is more of a... a passing offense compared to what you've seen under PJ Fleck? And then who are the guys out that, that Drake Lindsay is going to be targeting when you're looking at receivers, tight ends, other passing talent.
12:19
I don't think the stats necessarily tell the right story of what it's been for the Russian game, because by the time the offense took the, the field for the third time against Mississippi state, they were down 21 to three.
12:30
So not only were you struggling to run it initially, but you just completely abandoned the run because an eight-minute touchdown drive doesn't really do a lot when your defense was hemorrhaging the way that they were.
12:41
Now, last week against Washington, they ran it for 125 yards, which I will take every day of the week and twice on Saturdays this weekend.
12:50
If you can somehow find a way to run it for 100-plus yards against Michigan, I'm going to take that.
12:55
But this offense...
12:58
This offense does a lot of different things.
16:50
What happened? What's the 10,000 foot view of what went wrong in week two versus what went so well for that unit in Seattle.
29:51
So it's basically impossible to put any of the phenomena into a box based on duality because there's such a spectrum of experience that people have from positive to negative.
30:05
100%.
30:06
I, I would, I would say, and it, it's not just us.
30:10
It, it, we are the ultimate gauge, and that's, that's kind of what Spacef- Space Wolf Research likes to look at, is the human aspect.
30:21
But even multiple devices, technological devices react differently.
30:25
We've had infrareds get fried.
30:27
We've had, uh, different sensors go haywire.

21 MINS LATER

51:32
Mm.
9:09
The winemaker known as Drew Bledsoe, who also played quarterback, but yeah, go
9:14
ahead.
9:15
He's 6'5", 230, has a huge arm, is not going to break the pocket and scramble.
9:20
He has slimmed down to 230, but he is one of those prototypical dropback passers that you used to see in the 1980s.
9:27
I mean, he is just very much a throwback to what it used to be before the the day and age of now the dual threat quarterback, which Devon Williams obviously does so well.
9:37
So this offense wants to be more pro style, and that is going to mean that Drake Lindsey is going to be up at the line.
9:43
They're going to work both under center and in shotgun, but he is the one directing traffic.

11 MINS LATER

20:54
But tell me about that interior defensive line, their ability to stuff the run, because that's where Washington, I think, really needs to try to establish something, but may have a difficult time.
34:43
And was that the first time that you had heard the term skinwalker?
34:46
First time ever.
34:48
And I just was horrified.
34:50
Like, what is this thing they're talking about? And they came back over and they said, yeah, man, I don't know what to tell you.
34:59
I would just kind of stay away from these parts for a little while.
35:03
That was it.
35:04
They let me go on my way.

speaker_5NARRATOR
41:42
And I'm like, this guy's perfect.
9:36
How does it affect them?
9:40
Oh, I mean, we could do an entire podcast about this.
9:43
But I think the way to kind of convey it to the listeners here is spots are becoming more limited.
9:49
Now, I think it's being overblown to an extent how limited they become.
9:54
I do think they're probably down 10% to 20% in the high school ranks.
9:58
But you also are just seeing a trickle-down effect where it's not just at a Big Ten level because – We've got so many other good teams in and around the Midwest here where you've got the Dakota schools, you've got the Northern Sun, you've got NAIA.
10:11
Everybody's still looking for high school kids, and everybody still has to fill out their high school classes.

13 MINS LATER

23:21
And I don't see that stopping anytime soon, especially after his junior film starts coming out.
89:39
So it does seem to be a definite infringement in many ways.
89:46
I think it is.
89:48
And it, it is one of these things a lot like what the government does, and that's changing names.
89:56
I, I think that these entities, whatever you wanna call them, you can call them angels, you can call them demons, precognitive sentient intelligence, non-human intelligence.
90:08
Uh, the list goes on and on.
90:10
But the bottom line is these deities, these non-human presences, have been relied upon in the past, worshiped in the past, and they, they've, they've completely changed our reality.
90:26
And what I mean by that is they've given us these tidbits, right? A, a good example was the Ark of the Covenant.

5 MINS LATER

95:53
Yeah.
13:49
and for some reason ryan i can't put my finger on it that just pisses people off i swear people outside your fandom they want you to either be elite or or or horse crap and i i can't i don't know why i don't know what the psychology is behind where that drives them nuts more than anything
14:11
You know, it's funny you say it that way because it's something that I talk about with my wife because I truly only get to be a fan of one sports team, and that's the Minnesota Twins, of all things, where I was explaining to her on the car ride back this weekend about the Twins and how they're, again, they're a game below .500.
14:30
And they've just been kind of mediocre.
14:32
And I either want them to be good or I want them to be bad because in between it's just like, well, what are they? They're just kind of mediocre.
14:38
They're average.
14:39
But again, this isn't going to turn into a Byron Buxton, Tom Polad podcast.
14:44
But my point being, I understand the thought process of like, we want to see there's the thought process.
19:11
And me thinks that won't be much of an issue because I think the most important position potentially could be where we start for something that Ryan's feeling good about.
95:31
Nice.
95:31
Um, it, it basically reads, "And the Lord God said, 'The man has now become like one of us, knowing good and evil.
95:39
He must not be allowed to reach out his hand and take also from the tree of life and eat and live forever.'" So the question is, one of us, who is he talking to? There's obviously more than just him, and it almost sounds as if he has, like, these minions or these, these workers.
95:58
And the word El is so important, E-L, because if they are angels, it would make sense because all the angels, their names typically end with L, E-L, and many of the demons as well.
96:12
So it's a fascinating aspect that we do have these creators, you know, that, you know, if you go word for word in the Bible.
96:22
And I don't like to delve into it 'cause it's a murky book, but it has, it, there's a lot of parts that have been left out, you know? And but what, what is there are just tid- tidbits of goodness.
96:33
So I think that, uh, it offers a really good at least breadcrumb trail for us to delve upon.

11 MINS LATER

107:56
[laughs]
1:11
Um, I mean, a, a season I, I think Minnesota fans are probably pretty happy about, right?
1:15
[lips smack] They're happy about it.
1:17
I mean, we're talking about a program that, a- again, I even think about the over-under for this year where I think it's still sitting at five and a half, where I think death, taxes, and take the over on the Minnesota over-under has been a very fruitful thing for people for the last five years, where it finished above Big Ten or above 500 in the Big Ten for the last five years.
1:36
So it's, it's at a stage now where I think a lot of fans may be taking for granted some about how difficult it is, especially in these new ages of super leagues, to finish above 500 in the Big Ten, which Minnesota has consistently done here over the last few years.
1:52
Now, there's a lot of question then about, well, how do the, you know, how do we get back to a 2019 type of ceiling season? And we can get into the nuances of Drake Lindsey, Darius Taylor, Anthony Smith, and how this current roster is constructed, but it's tough to, [laughs] it's tough to be upset when, again, you're consistently winning seven and eight games.
2:12
Now the, m- again, the rebuttal back from fans just remains, "Well, in this day and age where the college football playoff is going to be expanding here very soon, how do we find a way to get on that cusp where November games become a lot more interesting?"
6:39
Yeah.
6:39
And if Drake Lindsey's gonna be a first-round pick or be an All-Big Ten quarterback, which again, for the University of Minnesota would be a heck of an accomplishment too in itself, he's gotta have somebody to throw the ball to.
10:53
Now, when you say ionizing devices, for people that are scientifically retarded like myself, can you explain a little bit more about what that is?
11:02
Yeah, it's a really fascinating thing.
11:05
Um, so T. Townsend Brown was involved in a number of things, including studying time travel with people like, uh, Dr. Timothy Taylor, AKA Tyler Durden from Diana Pasulka's book, American Cosmic, and others, in a group called the Nassau Group, where they would meet in The Bahamas and do some of these top secret discussions and experiments allegedly.
11:33
But what he's most known for is a wide variety of patents that a number of military contractors currently use, Lockheed, Raytheon, the Big Five, and all of them have T. Townsend Brown patents that they're working off of.
11:49
And he was using ionizing radiation as a form of allegedly exotic propulsion systems.
11:58
So, uh, pretty fascinating science that seems, um, benign on the face of it, but turns out to be- Quite impressive.
12:10
And he had a number of these devices that have fallen into auction sites and things of that nature.

22 MINS LATER

34:47
Mm-hmm
6:49
Had you been involved from the start, how might you have advised this rollout of this new technology for the Department of Licensing?
6:57
I would've started out with a very rudimentary question of, "What problem is this trying to solve?" And then from that problem framing, we can start to design certain kinds of approaches.
7:08
Some of them are gonna lead into AI for sure, but some of them don't necessarily need to.
7:13
And even if they do lead into AI, one of the important things is that there are a number of really important steps that organizations have to go through to deploy this responsibly.
7:23
So all the way from public consultation to soliciting vendors, to making sure that in the execution of this, that all the wires line up, that when you press two, it does go to Spanish and not Russian or Hungarian or one of the other, I think, nine languages, seven or nine languages that they have available.
7:44
So just making sure that all the cables get crossed the right way, all the way to monitoring and evaluation and just making sure that this continues to perform the way that you expect it to.
10:45
They're also pretty short-staffed.
10:47
And that's where AI can actually be a really great addition to the workflow.
32:17
Mm
32:18
... um, it talks about this entity which is basically, uh, this, this angel of darkness that is still u- under God's employ, and God can control him, but he's kind of the adversary.
32:35
And then you hear similar things come up in more modern times with, like, the Bledsoes, Chris Bledsoe being told by, um, in American Cosmic it was Tyler Durden, but we know now that that's Timothy Taylor, um, that, th- that this, uh, guy told him, "Hey, God and the devil are this potentially working for the same corporation," right? And it's really interesting when you see these things come up in different, completely different eras and time periods.
33:10
And, uh, I think there's some truth to it that, you know, when you go back to, like, the Book of Jubilees when there's no reason to be mentioning, and, and it has a special name, and we can get into that.
33:23
And, uh, but yeah, there's, there's definitely, in my opinion, an advanced knowledge that our intelligence, highest intelligence personnel know, and our people at places like the Vatican or other major world religions know.
33:41
And it's no, it's no coincidence that it's being rumored that Jeffrey Epstein stayed at the Vatican for a while.

25 MINS LATER

58:52
To close out, do you think the masses are ready for at least the information that we can find in the upcoming file release?
59:03
Yeah.
3:08
I don't know, Ran, what do you think about all this?
3:12
I think there's a lot going on right now, like you said, a lot going on, and all these guys are trying to stay ahead of the ball.
3:20
And it's not – everything is not even close to what it appears to be.
3:29
I've heard rumblings that Barack could have even been – kind of trying to keep the topic lighthearted and deflect from some potential upcoming things.
3:45
And these guys are masters of manipulation.
3:48
If the world is a stage, you are looking at...
3:52
I mean, these guys make Hollywood actors... look like they're a dime a dozen.

5 MINS LATER

9:27
It's that there's just that keyword has been mentioned several times in the exact same email, and then they just keep populating the exact same email underneath it.

141:44
Any new theories or understandings about why the Uintah Basin is so energetically powerful, specifically the areas that you're researching? There's
6:30
I'm going to guess P.J. Fleck.
6:33
That'd be Philip John Fleck up here in Minneapolis of all places, and I think he'd be the first to tell you he didn't expect that.
6:40
I think there's been some opportunities over the years for him to leave, but he's still here.
6:45
And for those people who he rubs the wrong way, I get it.
6:49
I like to describe P.J. Fleck as five Red Bulls all the time.
6:53
And that's a lot of energy for anyone.
6:54
You're going to know within five seconds or so.
10:22
What is going on with Minnesota's running game? They rank 114th nationally.
