Lesser known time travelers

from Journey to the Fringe

Time travelers, lie detectors, dinosaur zoos, AI world governments, this week we dive into the wonderfully bizarre world of lesser‑known time‑travel claims. From Daily Mail polygraph prophets to masked CIA carpenters who say they visited the year 2118, Taylor and Chelsea sift through predictions of microchipped humans, alien contact in 2028, and a future ruled by floating robots. It’s Journey to the Fringe at its most Fringe, delivered with the duo’s trademark Canadian whimsy and skepticism.🎙️ Long Episode DescriptionIn this episode, Taylor and Chelsea return to the strange, delightful territory of alleged time travelers, those mysterious figures who claim to have popped into our timeline with dire warnings, wild predictions, and occasionally a lie detector test. After noting they’ve only covered the big names like John Titor and the Man from Taured before, they decide it’s time to explore the lesser‑known travelers who insist they’ve seen our future.First up is Adam Archon, a man who says he arrived from 2045 and passed a polygraph while predicting microchipped humans, AI‑run super‑nations, and even dinosaur zoos accessible via UFO‑like time machines. His claims—delivered while his hand “returned to basically normal” after rejecting a chip—range from aliens revealing themselves in August 2028 to a world governed by ten people monitoring a morality‑checked AI.Then comes Alexander Smith, the masked ex‑CIA carpenter who says he was abducted by men in black suits, blindfolded, flown to a secret base, and sent to the year 2118. There he allegedly witnessed slanted skyscrapers, floating robots with full human rights, and a world unified after a conflict between the U.S., North Korea, and Russia spiraled into what he calls a third world war.With humor, curiosity, and plenty of side‑commentary about reptilians, TikTok time‑slippers, and the logistics of implanting payment chips in your foot, Journey to the Fringe unpacks these stories the way only they can, equal parts skeptical, fascinated, and deeply entertained.
