Yeah That's really good rumb. That's fantastic rumb. I was in Florida last week. I think so.

Yeah, that's why we didn't record Yeah, it was in Florida last week and it was sick. Yeah, real quick. Sorry for the delay in the releasing of this episode. They're real Yeah, this is not our job.

Yeah I mean basically comes down to that and we were going to attempt to kick out another episode when I got back But I got bronchitis Dan got sick while working out of town and it was awful. We should be great You know, you're out of town. Oh, yeah, that's the company credit card living large and I was first like day and a half I know why you're so sick. It's all that fucking germ squirter killer stuff sanitizer.

Thanks that much. I thought you did No, I think it's because I'm alcoholic Back in the day when that shit was fairly new I wasn't drinking at the time And I could not stay away from it and somebody eventually pointed out to me They're like hey, do you feel like you need that all the time? And I'm like well, yeah, I mean I just kind of get I say get super addicted to the to the feeling and they're like yeah Because it has alcohol in it like what wait like yeah, it's open into your skin. Oh shit.

Yeah. What? Yeah, oh, you're blowing my mind hang on for real. Yeah More there's I mean some of them do but not all them but originally hand sanitizer was like alcohol and like gel Yeah, yeah, and you just like rub it on your hands So I was doing it all the time because I had quit drinking at the time and they're like yeah Good drinking huh?

Wow. Yeah, I like the hand sanitizer. No shit. It's good.

Yeah, they got me I didn't know that was even a thing. So apparently I'm amazed totally makes sense now because like yeah It's not so bad quit drinking the the non-alcohol give me more give me more sanitizer The non-alcohol sanitizer is it's not a satisfying does not fulfill that need you're a woman What the fuck do you mean you're out of sanitizer bullshit? Oh, they're never on the same time now Yeah, no, I just I don't you know eight pizza off the floor on that type of guy I mean not I don't just pick a random slice of pizza ball floor But if I drop pizza on my floor, I'm still gonna eat the slice of pizza even though I have two dogs trash pizza Man, I've eaten food out of trash cans like you know my daughter my wife was like what are you doing? I'm hungry still I'm fat see people for people who don't have never seen me or gonna think I'm like 600 pounds no You don't you don't fumble over your words enough Lushin run.

I was just yeah, exactly when you got a fat throat the fat throat fat fat tongue fat lips that liver probably have a fatty liver I don't got it. Sorry. No, let's make some noise. So so Dan.

How's your flight man? Oh, yeah I forgot about that one. I want to talk about the flight dude, and what's even worse? I was the way back.

Did you hold on? Okay? Yeah, tell the first story the trip down there trip down. No, no big deal I mean, it's it's not that exciting pretty typical you know, I'm having drinks You know good guys meals I got the company credit card going to training.

Yeah regular 85 So my initial thought was okay If I can't get a decent flight out and by decent, I mean like Friday evening not five a.m. In the morning where you had to show three was gonna be a nightmare Plus it was gonna be expensive if I got you know like a more desirable flight and I felt bad about it Yeah, so I'm like, okay, I'll be you know away from home Extra night do something on Saturday and Tampa or Sarasota. I never really have been there or go down there I don't think I've ever been a sir. So either I was gonna go like Bush Gardens or the zoo or some show I have been bush gardens That there okay, so I've been there and but then I got sick and I'm like man I wonder if enterprise just let me drive this fucking car home.

I read like a vehicle cross. It's actually pretty kick guys car by the way They wouldn't let me know they're like yeah, it's like five hundred dollars if you're gonna drop it off in Charleston So I looked up to the the rules for taking standby or like changing your flight and Americans like if there's a similar flight Like the same stops same times etc. There's a really good chance you do that so I did I went home on Friday Because I felt like shit anyway get on your plane and you know, you're you know You're settling in you've got Steve Belfast and you've already heard the thing Taxing runway, you know that the engines kick up and you know anybody who's flown knows that like Like that little like that first little dip when they first let that's and you that is why I love flying Yeah, I like I do it's like a roller coaster that lasts for hours now imagine right when you're expecting that dip off the ground you here And Plan starts wait she she she like sideways sideways sideways. I got a call time out cuz I didn't hear this part No, I didn't this wasn't what I was talking about you getting upgraded on your way out not nearly as exciting Yeah, yeah, whatever.

I don't give shit. Okay. Yeah. No, this is much more exciting, but yeah I didn't know anything about this.

Please continue. Okay. Oh shit. So freaky that like nobody is talking the planes like in and yeah Right, it's your back take off flaps go up breaks on like we're at four feet.

We're stopping this plane right now Right the fuck now. Nobody's saying shit. Nobody's freaking out. It's just wide eyes Like looking around the fuck was that?

Oh, do we almost take off into another plane? What's happening? You're just looking around the cabin finally come to a stop and they're like like deep breath from the captain. No joke Breathe before you get on the fucking mic.

Oh, okay, so Right engines down. We're not going anywhere like we were that close to taking off with a bad fucking engine on the plane I mean, but that's why they have so many no no to this was not a large plane. There's a jet on the right general left But the jet on the right and left thing isn't for I mean it is for a little bit of balance But you can fly with one jet you can land again kind of they make chunk of metal dude like Moore's law works But you need a lot of thrust to make that shit work for Moore's law. I'm talking Murphy's law Murphy's last bad one.

Yes, but it was pretty scary. We got off got another plane That's the thing I love flying, but I've never had a bad experience with light. No, usually I love that first Little that first little hop before we take off. You know, I'm up.

It's like oh shit I'm gonna roll closer, but then that feeling goes away and like you get really drunk really quick on planes for some reason Yeah, probably because I drink a lot. Yeah, usually have like three or four speaking of Mentioning first class. I've never I had never flown first class before This is the story I wanted to tell about but now I'm I was upgraded because there weren't a lot of people on the flight on the way down and Yeah, I'm a piece of shit. I don't fly first class.

That's expensive. Yeah, you're not a piece of shit for not flying first I mean so I didn't really check in it's literally like a thousand dollars cheaper No, this is only like $77. What serious between first class and yep every first class. I've looked just like oh that's 1600 And the regular flights 400.

Okay. Well, I mean 400 again small point. Yeah, that's sure but Still not disappointing. I just bring it all the moment.

I sat down which was early of course because it's priority seating I'm in seat 1a. No, we next to me. That's like the number number one leg. I couldn't put my feet out far enough I was trying to kick shit, but there was no I couldn't reach the wall seat 1a you could have opened the cockpit door closer than you could kick something Everybody's walking past me.

I'm in the first motherfucking seat on the right now Did you throw in shades inside the plane and act like you were important? No, did you just pass out business cards? I wish I had but you know what I did do before we took off before wait this the head stewardess I'm sorry flat it in was like mr. Glazer.

I think it's do it is. She had my name. Yeah, she had my name came up mr. Glazer Before we before we finished boarding would you like something to drink and I'm like no, I don't drink.

Thank you, man Sure, what do you have because of course I'm thinking alcohol and she starts listening to us. She says coke on introduce Yeah, I'm like yeah, I'm like vodka. I'm gonna throw some vodka in that She's like of course you're gonna wish her and I'm expecting like can I get a salary? I'm expecting like that'll be X amount of dollars.

Yeah, wrong. No, no, no. No, no wait. Hang on.

You're not gonna tell me it's free It's all included fuck off. That's worth the flight then right Because I'm extreme on a flight Ma'am speaking of if you order a mixtr. In conflict you have to have exact cash on you know no more they take cars now I'm okay. I guess it's been a while.

I try to get a drink on a flight. Yeah, I went I usually Maybe a year to a gut most and a year to it most and Anyway, so yeah, keep them coming. They brought me a blanket I mean if you're if you're in coach you are praying Especially if you're it's a short flight and this was only like an hour and a half You were praying that the beverage cart comes by Dude, she didn't stop offering me shit. I kept taking the drinks.

I stopped taking the snacks She was like only snacks string a little basket And what kinds of chocolate was her name? I bet you were her name to it was the worst fucking dick You don't remember her name was lore you made up to lure no, that's no one names are it was a D name It was a Donna Dolores. I don't remember I do remember a lot of D names for women. Yeah name them Debbie Delilah Dolores Diana Donna Diane fuck you.

Okay. I think it's a little bit twice I remember what she looks like she provided great service Service comes great responsibility Dan. I'm drunk. Did you get one plane?

How many drinks do you have is what I'm gonna say not how to draw? Okay, every time she said would you like another one? I said yes I've had three bourbon and coaxed on a plane. It was an hour and a half.

So I mean holy shit I was trying not to be a huge dick and be like yo over here two more yeah I flew from Charleston, Pennsylvania, which is Can't be more than half can't three something like that two to three somewhere there and I had three drinks within that time frame and I felt great Of course you did something about the altitude man. It really does help really does do something but see does your body know you're at altitude because the cabin is pressurized So did your body? I guess the pressurized. Yeah, it's the pressure.

It's the pressure right? Yeah What do they pressurize by you know see because it what do they pressurize the plane at sea level and what oh when do they or why do they? What like what pressure do they like oh? It's whatever yes, you level or close to what I imagine or maybe a little higher So it's not so much of a difference from the outside inside maybe like a Denver pressure Oh, no, cuz people I don't know I think they pressurize it mostly because the oxygen dissipates Thought they did just because if they didn't I can't be see little cuz your spot when you open a plane right so it has to be less than Sea level.

I don't know look into this shit. Fuck it. I don't really care. Sorry.

Anyways I thought of a great idea. Do you have anyone bugging you on the plane obviously not on the way there because you're not there Way back. Thank you sent next to me to know kids yelling in the cabin now No, but it was what was kind of annoying was there was a very attractive Rugged thick marine dude. It was getting hit on by everyone on the plane everyone in the terminal really like they wouldn't stop The chicken front of me was like I'm on the fucking lottery And I'm just gonna keep talking so that he has a reason to talk to me and we got off the plane and that bitch was married If I was her husband I would fucking slap her in the fucking face for all the shit she was saying to this marine really but like I'm not gonna lie Dude was rugged as fuck.

I was attracted to him. I'm not gonna bug motherfucker like this bitch was But they were right in front of me. I'm not trying to get in those camos. No, no no no no I mean she's like to see what he's working with none stop running your fucking mouth like really because her seat was lean back And I was in coach with this part because it was on the way back She was right in front of me his seat was all the way forward hers was lean back and she's like sideways You know like body language.

Oh my god. You know she's like her body was like sideways talking to this poor guy Yes, so yes people bother me because she didn't shut the fuck up at all I was sick a little bit drunk and it was late at night I was trying to get home. Okay, you ready for the best idea of how to get people on a plane? Please I cannot wait to share this listen.

All right, so when you sit down you look at people next to you You know, hey listen don't want to you know bug you I just want to let you know that I have this condition that sometimes I Follow sleep with my eyes open just wanna let you know that's good motherfucker. I did it too It's okay pretty good at points for them coming. That's where my brother's gonna fucking down for that shit So you tell them that and I don't know eyes open a quarter of the way halfway in you don't snore anything You just lay back and you stare at them just stare at them. They're not gonna say shit to you man.

Oh, that's brilliant Yeah, I think I would throw this nor in maybe occasionally I was maybe a little that well, and then you gotta do the thousand yards there Which is like you just passed them just over somebody's right here. You just yeah, I just hear through them like I'm staring at the person behind you That was an awesome stare off. Yes. I know I know listen here, but it was intense or see it.

Did I say here? Yeah, you know, I mean they can't hear either We didn't say anything while we were staring which you shouldn't say anything if you're sleeping you wouldn't Oh, maybe you're like listen. I talk in my sleep. I just want to apologize in advance and I sleep in my eyes open I got a lot of sleep in disorders sometimes night tears also don't worry about any of that's just like Stairam hey babe.

Hey babe You ready to go home. Oh, yeah, I'm into you too talk about and then if they try to wake you up That's when you go night terror the fucking snakes are on my eye and you know, I mean they can't kick you off once you're in the air You already got out here talk about sounds good. I probably totally blew the mics out just now. Let's blow you open like a court Yeah, baby.

I'ma spread cheese all over this our cream. Wait. What yeah, he's like wok gun I'm like that guacun That is the most saddest thing ever is to see them put the condiments on with a gun Yeah, you really shouldn't I mean it's a great idea whoever thought of that was like that's that is a way to do it in that situation I mean pretty brilliant a cocking gun is the perfect spencer for toppings at a food joint. Oh, yeah But you should that's also why you should not order Taco Bell inside I think that only drunk from the drive listen though.

Listen. I got it. I would like I would like listen I would like my own kitchen cocking gun Yeah, I wish I could buy catch up and stuff in full tubes and then just I won't catch one of eight Kind of like that you say catch up. I say catch up.

Yes. It's like it's like cats up It's not mixed with no one throws a t next to an s like a no who's who's Yeah, it's like February February February February February February. February. You worry.

Have you ever read the word? Yeah, got an honor say when does this day what does that? Yeah, exactly. No, no one no one does that.

Are you tell me you take break? Yeah, I'm gonna take break. I'd say we take break We're gonna take a break Go's with me shit because we always say take a break and I'm like yeah because when we take a break We come back and not know what the fuck we're talking about. I don't know planes.

That's great great idea Paul's all right. We're back. So hey hey templars So we are finishing up our temple run finishing up for now. We kind of for real I want to do a little bit of a do over honestly if you if you didn't do this on purpose I understand in my my impression of the last episode was I don't want to do shit I know you're into this stuff personally So I'm just gonna say templars so that I don't have to try too hard and then I was like oh well I'm into it, but I'm totally unprepared and then basically what I'm saying is last episode sucked.

I think it sucked I apologize. I didn't do that. I mean I did that but I also didn't do that like I needed a I honestly I've been so overworked at work. I needed a week to wear it.

You kind of carried the show I don't think I carried it. I mean we kind of do that back and forth like hey really this topic whatever anyway I knew enough about to carry conversation, but obviously I had a lot of questions But what I was hoping where you were gonna lay out some guidelines to where I can go I can research this this and this I still think I'm gonna do that okay, and that's gonna be further than a lot That's what I'm saying. We're not doing that now. No, I'm doing that now We're gonna come talk about it last episode how we're gonna lay the shit out and so This one was about the Templar treasure the treasures.

So we're gonna get into that a little bit into the Assassins Oak Island. Oak Island later. What? That's what I prepared for did you really I mean that's wrong?

I listened to a couple of guys about okay Okay, so I basically paid attention to the work other people have done Is that not what research is yes? Got me there. Okay, so basically today we're covering treasure. We're not covering the Mason Connection maybe a little bit not really and we're not covering like any of the big grand conspiracies of the Templars like how they run the government The banks and all that aren't we I mean we're always talking about that because every word we speak was written by the Templars Right pretty much.

How do you guys know we're not not 10 parts? Oh, yeah? Grass roots because listen grass roots and laminate Illuminati boom That's my middle helmet. I'm wearing You're a piece of shit anyway, okay, so there's just as a recap I wanted I wanted to clarify if you things that I got wrong because last episode.

I was totally doing about memory Yeah, but you really this really is kind of a pet hobby of mine I look into this shit because you know, I don't know where we come from. I want to know what's up I wouldn't say hobby because that makes you sound kind of crazy I mean it's a not even passion. It's something that in picture interest. Okay, it's an interest.

Okay, it's something I Hobby means like every week at least once a week you're looking at the bottom bars That's a point I wouldn't even call this podcast hobby. I would It's more than hobby man. Okay, so I got a few things wrong last time. Okay for those of you who don't know or He did my advice because you're a friend of mine and said don't fucking listen to that last one because it sucked Okay, it had the most listeners ever so go ahead.

That's weird. Anyway. Oh, yeah, by the way I had all new listeners glad you joined us. Thanks people that we don't know that oddly are listening to you We're trying to get this right and just if you stick with us If you listen to last one then you're probably not listening this one But if you did and came back to go I want to hear the rest of it listen man.

Just trust us. We're getting better Yeah, especially when we pointed out I had to because you point out Damn it. So good. So don't you guys think so you made some mistakes.

I made some mistakes So I said something about like the temple hours were responsible for the taking of Jerusalem or at least helped Yeah, wrong. Okay, so they were just like they were part of the crusades. Yeah, but hey Pilgrims pilgrims and crusades are kind of interchangeable here, right? The pilgrims to Jerusalem were crusades to Jerusalem.

No, no I thought that's wrong and I'm guilty of that too. So the Catholic Church Wanted to take over the holy land and they did so earlier. Okay. That was one of the things that I fucked up Okay, so they owned the holy land.

I mean that okay, they were in control of the holy land You could call it a steward, you know, there were people that were in charge, but it was it was mostly done through local government small battles You know people just kind of sucked so, you know a lot of people from France and involved with the Catholic Church came in and And kind of took over the area with not too much resistance. Okay, so there's already so much in battling that they're kind of showed up They're like yo, this is us. I mean here. Don't get me wrong.

There were many bloody horrible battles for Jerusalem But they were able to sneak in so much power at the time that they were like now we're here now. It's too late for you to fight back It's kind of late we're here the crusaders Shepherded people common people to the no we would stop. I'm sorry saytors were Europeans that wanted to retake Jerusalem for the church Either led by the Pope or King Richard the Lionheart That French the French King to that was King Philip. It's like wrong.

Okay, sorry King Richard the Lionheart is the King of England at the time He personally was involved in the early crusades. His name was really King Richard and they called him Lionheart Yeah, I think it's legit like that's not just from the run of Gartan. Okay, that's not just from Lionheart movie No, no, that's real shit. Really.

Yeah, Jerusalem was occupied at this time the Knights rose up from You know what was the first guy's name? Anyway, there was a French Knight that first came to I think his name is Baldwin Right because we talk about the Baldwin's yeah, exactly so he was all he was like the steward or you know I mean they called him the King of Jerusalem, but you know, he's not really the King this French Knight the Western world's influence on the true steward of Jerusalem. Okay, so the Templar Knights had rose up and Rings due to a French Knight's idea about like he said, you know, shepherding pilgrims to the Holy Land, etc They approached King Baldwin about this about say hey, will you fund this project that we want to do? Basically, we want to we want to hang out.

We want to be a temple We want to live there we don't be non-profits and we want you to pay for it Kind of and so they convinced King Baldwin to give them a wing of his palace Actually, not even wing of his palace and we allowed them to make their headquarters at Temple Mount at the fucking Temple in Jerusalem supposedly above the that's the one that's above the Solomon temple or later Maybe okay, so and that was another thing that I was wrong about yeah, you're throwing a lot of curveballs at me I'm trying to figure out which way they're curbing so I said it was like a 11.03 or something It was actually like 1099 1099 the Templars moved into the first crusade took over so cheap shirt, right? Ten what $10 9,000,000,000,000, sorry, sorry, I'm gonna help it. I couldn't help it Okay, so the Templar Knights were a mixture of a monk and a military presence They're known for being basically holding the values of a priest so the legit peacekeepers like yes originally We're gonna keep peace coming here. We'll still fuck you up, but when we're done with you.

We're back to peace Yeah, I mean there's a lot of accounts of you know pretty brutal battles bunch of judo So much judo. They're known for being mounted on horseback. Of course very skilled fighters The like wedge form charge Where they're very tightly packed and just like rip through enemies from me. Yeah Was what they were known for Supposedly a Templar night or a Templar army would not retreat unless they were outnumbered three to one Imagine being that guy that they're like Dan and man your point today like The point of the triangle that's gonna be the first one to get they were fine with it I know because they were like pretty they took vows of poverty so weird that we can't really relate to that shit No, like we can't relate to the draft Did you imagine if they're like damn you've been drafted into the military you'd be like hey Here's my little finger you take that to the military.

Okay, there's no way a draft work nowadays It'd be a revolt absolutely. It's just crazy that what 40 years ago 50 years ago the draft was a thing I mean, I'm sorry bring up the draft, but anyway, I don't know. I'm sorry to forget the draft Yeah, dude. What's wrong?

I don't know Like you get drafted into the front line technically front line for the Templars is you're gonna be the first one to hit The very front of this arrow that we're gonna drive right through the enemy. You're probably gonna die. Yes, it will great fighters great Etc, okay, I want to tease we're gonna jump forward into what we talked about last episode. Okay, so present day DC no dammit.

I'm gonna steal the circulation Nicholas Cage is everyone that's a great movie. He's we have remember we're talking about vampires and Nicholas Cage's vampire Yeah, for a few other people I got another one to add the list first case Yeah, anyways, go ahead Jonathan price. Why does that name sound super familiar? I can't put a face to it because you're dumb.

Okay, so he was the sparrow in Game of Thrones He was the guy from something wicked this way comes He was the guy with like curly locks from the East India trading company and parts of the Caribbean gotcha. Okay, that motherfucker doesn't age Amen, we'll be right back. All right. We're back.

Huh? Sorry. How do you do that? I'm really bad.

It's okay So we're talking about the ten parts. I don't remember we're at because we said we're taking break We're back now and you're going on a little more drunk than you thought you were. Yeah. Yeah, anyways I have to ask real quick before we get into this because yeah, let's just jump into the middle of something I'm already fucking you up and I know Okay, I'm gonna say this name.

I know this is not his name. Okay. I don't know his name. What's his name?

King Charmander? I know that's a Pokemon. I know that is a Pokemon. Okay, you're way off But you know what I'm talking about you're asking about Charlemagne Charlemagne.

That's the one. Yes, okay Not related at all, but I heard a few things that maybe the Templars and Charlemagne. Nope. Nope.

Nope. Okay. That's all right because I had heard I put my ear to the internet like this. You know what I heard I heard whispers about Charlemagne and templars.

Charlemagne is important in The history of the world but for different reasons. Okay, and the Templars had nothing to Charlemagne I can see I put my ear to the internet like this. You listen for the internet and I heard whispers like you were tracking Yeah, I was native American it Americaning it good what I don't know if that's word made it up You're trying to you're trying to see if there's a train coming. I'm ear to the ground.

Yeah, the ground is the internet. Yeah, I heard Okay, nothing. It is I couldn't remember it. It was the first thing about my head Charmander even though I don't play Pokemon No, okay.

Well better. I feel better. I had to get that out of the whole name because I was worried you weren't gonna mention Charlemagne Which obviously you weren't gonna mention him. I wasn't Dan.

Please continue with your thoughts on the Templars and I will try not to Railroad you as hard as a steam engine Maybe I'll maybe I'll push card it. Maybe I'll pump it up and down. I'll be coming down the tracks and you'll see me and I'll be like man I can't stop. Oh, it's already happening.

It's already pushing. I'm gonna try one of those I do I think they'd be really fun. Don't they look fun now Do they only travel one direction do you literally have to lift them or or is it depending on how you stop and you pull the other Direction or the other way someone is how you start it feel like that should be how it got how it goes That's how that's has to be how it goes. I don't know.

We're gonna do school though. It does seem really fun I know we need to find a band and a band and rail track and buy one I know there's a lot maybe if you know this is build one in a circle Maybe this gets thousands downloads. We have hey come try your own push dart do like a little roller coaster But you're on that the whole time that we kind of lost it's whatever safety so I have no clue where you were at and I'm gonna lie you were talking about Templars and you said they were Prusating it's all so much. I'm sorry now.

It's blowing my mind. I fucked up. I'll admit it. I fucked up Oh, man, okay, so those were the parts that I messed up So now I don't even know around anymore.

I'm gonna have to tease it. Can I tease it? Well Dan has Dan has the answer Yeah, pretty much Dan knows where the treasure is and he's going to dig it up next week Oh, we all know where the treasure is fuck. We all know we all know it's right for our faces the whole time Oh my god, okay, so I gotta get through this go for this.

Go for a minute. I was let me get through this you stop talking I'm just kidding. I know okay, you can't show me The problem is I wanted to correct where I had fucked up in the last one and in the last one I just had a couple of dates wrong. Okay, so think about this so you took 45 minutes to explain you had a couple days wrong.

I fucking hate you Damn it 1099 is where it starts. Okay. Just remember that 1099 is when the Templars the price of a t-shirt or whatever I'm shit. You said earlier cheap t-shirt.

Yeah, that first crusade took over Baldwin remember that shit. He was already there Baldwin Let's the 10 flowers who are started by a French knight So I just have to ask go ahead because you've said knight Baldwin King Baldwin Do he is he like a self-announce that King? That's actually a pretty good question. Okay.

That's what I'm wondering because I know was it the Pope like was the pope like you're the king of here or he was like I'm here So and it was more like family relations like he had enough supporters to go I'm king kind of support me Baldwin took over because basically nobody else did so there was lots of fighting over Jerusalem Because you know because it's the holy land. Yeah, and they're still it's this is around of course Around 1180 this and it was actually Baldwin the second So he takes over because of family relations He lets the Templars come in because they're like hey, we're this fucking badass warrior monk group that you know We're like the fucking Rohiram in Lord of the Rings. We've got this fucking wedge formation We kick ass everybody fucking loves us. We're the best just ask anyone Baldwin agrees Let's them make their base in the temple.

So that's where some of the conspiracy begins where we talk about What the fuck were the Templars doing there in the first place really really the first standing army since the Roman Empire in all of Europe and by Standing Army I mean like a formidable force. It almost seems like they're like almost like black water Their lances for hire you're fucking blown my mind right now. Yes, it was like black water Similar very similar. Yeah, you're like okay.

Why the fuck is black water in fucking Iraq? What the fuck do they care? Very similar? You're like hmm interesting why do these elite knights who are gathered up from multiple nations?

Yeah, money exactly. Yeah, I talked about last one in the last episode how the Templars are basically credited for and I'm gonna make a tiny distinction is the same group tiny distinction between Templars and Templar Knights Templar Knights were the physical boots on the ground boots on the ground the fighting force the legendary You know full get up with the red cross down right across yep, and they've got the the on horseback Well known to be elite fighters there's a Templar where the background paperwork dudes bankers. That's kind of an overarching statement Yes, so my question is one why the fuck did they want to be in Jerusalem? My guess good pay if they were able to trick the king of Jerusalem.

I think I think initially it was like hey Because they're warrior where your monks and they want to retake because the Muslims controlled it for a long time Yeah, absolutely. They wanted to I mean even temple mount where supposedly the original temple Solomon was was a mosque I mean it was controlled by the Islamic faith so there was a big push you know Everybody wanted to get back to Jerusalem, but why would the strongest military in the world at this point in the known world? Okay, that's the strongest military, but the strongest standing military in the middle Middle Ages in around 1100 BC Not a lot of fucking badasses around why do they really want to go to Jerusalem? I can give you three guesses.

Yeah one is obviously is the highest paying job at the time Okay, they trick King Philip and Japan absorb an amount of fees to have in there pretty good to There was some secret there that they knew about that they wanted Mm-hmm, so they're like hey, let's let's fake like we're gonna be good friends with him But then we're really doing this which would explain the betrayal because the king finds out oh y'all really here for this watch this Let me fuck y'all Mm-hmm or three they maybe we're potentially going like listen will be friends with the king We're gonna act like this but then we're gonna queue his ass and now we're gonna own this motherfucker It's not not a bad question not a bad question or not bad theories. I'm saying Those are just my guesses like if I was a leader of a or maybe the leaders were in league with the king the whole time Where they're certain like are their names of leaders of the Knight Templar where they're like these three dudes are like the head of the Templars Yes, and were they in any relation to King Philip the second no But there were nights from the original night that started there were originally nine nights was I have to ask it was Remember that nights at the night. Yeah, where's that from? That's from a blue game.

Ah Ah Elder Scrolls so was this is gonna be a weird comparison, but were the Knights Templar kind of like the UFC What the fuck where it's like we only take the baddest of the bad like you can join Bellator Yeah, true, but if you build up to if we catch with your name, we're gonna sign over to the Templars Yes, you were not excited. I mean they're not fighting each other obviously they're fighting other people But it's the best of the best of the best are the only ones who get into the Templars correct into the into the military side Yes, and it was expected that you were an experienced fighter So they had many skills there's reports that the Templars had several fighting skills not just horseback like well you They were dudes that like were proficient with bows crossbows. Well, you think you want artillery in some fashion I'm sure they brought people in like hey this guy's crazy good with a bow. Yeah, I'm vitamin and we'll get his secrets on the bow Absolutely, so you know, they're probably bringing in Asian people.

They're probably bringing it I mean anyone who has something to add to their yes group so nobody really knows okay, so a couple things That's that's mostly just correcting what I was talking about in the last episode Couple things nobody really knows what they found but it seems to be important Yes, because they seem to have gained power very fucking quickly there were there were temple houses all over Europe Which I mean basically you could call banks, but I just got your check right there if they're the baddest of the baddest Huh if they get enough members quickly enough the king is gonna be like oh shit the military was not that large But I'm there's only 10% okay, so the other order was word temple nice But the king of Jerusalem was he worried that maybe they could take over if they want to get a play nice That's what I was wondering okay. No, they weren't he wasn't worried about it. Okay They played nice with king bald one because they wanted to hang out in the temple they wanted these select locations right so you're correct in The last episode we talked about exporting the pilgrims. Yes, it's widely believed that that is what the order was created for That's its front.

It's also believed that it was the front Mm-hmm. It's also believed that the arthur legends were created by the templars to sensationalize The holy land to gain support. I can see that more people sending money So we talked about in the last one that the templars basically created like the first multinational bank like the template PRs are right in stories like Yeah, King Arthur. Yeah, it's based on us come join us.

Yeah, so you've got the grail legend you've got all that shit Yeah, the holy relic. Yeah, the crusades like oh look there's beautiful women Yes, and you know you fight against people and it's good and fun and you'll win so nobody knows what they found So before they had plenty time that the Muslims eventually attacked and took it back. Okay, so the temple did lose eventually Yeah, so the the rain of the time was only about 200 years but in that time Massive amounts of power massive amounts of wealth this country and influence this country is barely 200 years old exactly So and you can see how much wealth and power we've gained as a country. Yes, like that's basically what they did kind of yeah So a lot of people wonder okay, so in this time in Jerusalem.

What happened? What did they find? There was there's a written account of an abbot of the Vatican from Italy speaking to King Richard the lion-hearted and He he says the treasure that the templars found is vast the knowledge is priceless So that kind of gives you like hmm. What are we talking about here now?

It's knowledge like again We don't know yeah, is that like we don't know so I'm gonna get into a little bit We talked about a little bit last time the Dead Sea Scrolls. Mm-hmm. So copper scrolls found in the Fancy or the Dead Sea in Palestine there in an area called Qumran. There were several caves where over time have been discovered Roughly in the 50s lots of papyrus Papyrus and what's the other material?

Oh parchment parchment and papyrus scrolls all over the place so and The parchment's which have been dated back to as much as 300 BC 10 bars 1100 remember 180 80 yes, so how is parchment surviving that long though? Oh and not very well, but it's you have a very good period Okay, I'm not saying you ever go in the attic you pull piece paper It's roughly 230 quote unquote biblical scrolls interesting thing about that is mostly Old Testament a lot of it very similar to the existing Old Testament so even before the Council of Nicaea for charlowing comes in later on Council of Nicaea is basically the Catholic Church and many other churches coming together and deciding to come together and create a More common Bible and more common belief and that's where we get like the King James version the Catholic ideals that's for instance If you believe Jesus Christ was a man he was actually born in like March, but most deities around the world were born in December They lined everything up. Yeah, that's what the council nice. He was and I mean that's that's kind of obvious to everyone nowadays That's later.

Yeah, also in that they found several non Non-biblical texts, you know things about finance things about trade just about how the word was at that time exactly all kinds of It and also that we discussed last time was the copper scroll copper scroll is believed to have been discovered by the Templars and Exploited because they're in the copper scroll there's detailed was believed to be the second temple treasures That was another thing I fucked up in the last one. I was talking about just temple treasures in general So there's a couple of things with with the temples the original temple Solomon was destroyed by the Babylonians in roughly 500 BC well, 560 roughly they Think it was rebuilt on the same site and so that's considered second temple also destroyed later on Before the Templars even got there. Yeah, that's why there was a mosque there. Yeah, so they've been a mosque on top of the second temple correct detailed in the copper scroll are Temple treasures and a second copper scroll.

It is more detailed. It has never been found Okay, so the copper scroll we found and I say we as in nowadays in the six was it 60s or 70s or something Was only part of the copper scroll set basically what you're saying. Yes, okay now is believed by some that these temples were destroyed by the Babylonians and Nebuchadnezzar was the second one. Why is that name sounds familiar?

Nebuchadnezzar it's also biblical. Okay. That's why so Roughly around the time that The second temple was being built. There were three sects of the Hebrews and there was a section called the Essene It's like E S S E and E these people are believed to have taken the scrolls from the original temple and hidden them in these caves Where they stayed for a long while like once the second temple was rebuilt I'm sorry first temple Essenes second temple built.

Okay, basically these dudes were like keeping the ancient Now the temple is built. We can bring it back out to the temple. Yes, they brought them back. Tell the scrot again And hiding again.

They brought them out Temples come in they learn of the original scrolls. They meet up with the Essenes Apparently we're homies. You guys are warriors of God. We're keepers of the truth There's a lot of belief that they like intermingled pound and pounds.

We're tight. We're tight. Yeah, anyway So detailed in not only these original scrolls and the letters they call it the cave of letters It's all this other shit like the financial stuff in the copper scroll supposedly details treasures of the first temple Which include the ark of the covenant? Everybody should probably know what that is if not the water is the last art the box that holds the 10 commandments not just that oh Jaramanna I want to do an episode of mana alone Jaramanna, which is the bread that or the That appeared the that allowed Moses to feed the people to correct make it out of the most intriguing in my opinion Aside from the stone tablets Was this the staff of Aaron and what is that Aaron was Moses brother?

What so in the biblical account when they're gonna meet go to meet Pharaoh God tells them when Pharaoh asked for a miracle to tell Aaron to throw down his staff That's when the parents just snake turns into a snake and devours the magician snakes. So like the dishes are like oh It's like devours next now later on Aaron staff has passed on to the tribe of Levi who are the priests of the Hebrew tribe So they were supposed to put the staff in the ground in front of each of the 12th tribes of Israel because they were all fighting over Who was the priest put it in front of the tribe of Levi and supposedly the staff floured and bloomed? This is So quick question though when he turned into a snake did he pick it back up and it turned back into a staff? I thought it was a snake and it was it was done.

No, I barely picked it back up because he used it later on It's also thought that was Moses that I didn't even know about Aaron So some of these up with a call apocryphal text or non-canon biblical texts that were found That still existing like Hebrew and mysticism have an even deeper Mythology to the staff that it was created on the sixth night of creation by God and given to Adam and then passed through Shem who's Adam's son Shem is either Adam's son or Noah's son What can I name or this? No, shem is Noah's son And went through Shem, Enoch, Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, and to Joseph and to Jess, Jess, Jess, and to Moses and then to Aaron Jess, Jess, Jess, right? The red-neckous of the Bible names and apparently there's like a Rarely talked about like sorting the stone story about Jess, right? Yeah, with that it's not including the Bible obviously Take a shot at a rabbit miss and like gold star pouring out the ground.

No the staff That really ill Billy's that's how they have started. Yeah, what a great job like a sword and stone style Myth about the staff passing on from Jethro to Moses because it was like put the staff in the ground If you were ordained by God, then you pull it out Yeah, and so there's like this whole little myth about pulling the staff out in this fucking ancient way before so this is sort of So supposedly when Moses shows up, he's the one that's able to pull it out So those are the three things that are supposedly inside the Ark of the cover There's also the Urim and the Thummen nobody really knows what those are apparently they are jewels The provided divination and by that I mean if you come to the priest and you want to know what to do Supposedly these two things were like the the hands of justice and could tell between right and wrong and like shown in the light differently Like very strange theories nobody all know all they know is that The priest like Aaron would go into the tabernacle wearing like a chess piece and he would put on these two things and they think They were jewels they think they could have been just smooth stones. They don't really know but apparently they're very valuable anyway moving on I already mentioned it's actually called Colit It's mentioned in the copper scroll Colit is a real place that supposedly the second more detailed copper scrolls is buried So the format of the copper scroll is that they would tell you what is there? The location and like a little bit of detail that somebody who knows what's up would know where it's at but not not exactly How to get there correct so check this out One of the treasures just one of the treasures mentioned in the copper scroll the second The first one the only one that's been discovered.

Okay. It's on display I mean it's I thought I thought you were talking about the second one that they had more information I know you're talking about the second temple treasure. I'm not that's why I got no no you're right There's there's two copper scrolls the second one is measured in the first one Yeah, so that if you know what the fuck we're talking about you can find the second one which gives you more detailed So the first one gives you clues to where the other treasures are there is supposedly like 66 So it's like a city treasure. It's like a treasure map to a treasure map to a treasure a little bit Yeah And so what they think is since the copper scroll is dated later than the papyrus and all that other shit that these are the Essenes map to The shit so that when the Babylonians took over that they could find all their treasures so that when the temples rebuilt they could refurnish it Yeah, it makes sense.

Mm-hmm. Just for reference the first location mentioned in the copper scroll contains 99 talents of gold and 99 talents is basically 868 ounces of gold how much 868 so given the $1,300 per ounce value of gold today, that's over a billion dollars Okay over a billion dollars. I'm taking notes in one location of the 66th mention in the copper scroll Which is supposedly have been discovered by the Templars in Jerusalem. They either spoke to the Essenes or essence however you want to say it or Discovered a map or something that guy figured out to get there the dead sea scrolls are a lot of people think that maybe even the copper Scroll was the temp ours doing but I don't think that's the case I think they they've made friends with the keepers of these scrolls and skip straight to the second scroll correct because the Etions did not like the Islamic they were like kind of a hidden like we're gonna keep all this shit safe from the Muslims So that 99 talents of gold the location of that was described in the second or in the first row first the only one that's been discovered Okay, so so we have no idea what's in the second one There's only illusions to what my second scroll saying hey if this doesn't make sense If you know where the fuck this second location is and you find that one it'll tell you like exactly where the shit Is there no one's ever found it?

Do you think maybe they put that in there so that people would find that go well? I'm going after this billion dollars worth of gold fuck the artifacts And so that only the people who were really into Christ would go after the artifacts versus the large amount of gold that they placed in there Perhaps perhaps it's like um magicians do to see magic illusion illusion said to see trick oration trick oration Yeah, that's a good word right is that a real word no, okay? So like supposedly supposedly the the Holies of Holies in the original Solomon Devil the floor was 800 talents of gold Holy shit, so the destruction of the original temple could very well have included pulling out 99 talents. Yeah, but king Oh, 999 9 hundred talents.

Oh, which is like 899. I was gonna make a 9-9 talents, but a bitch anyone yeah Yeah, we're out. That's right. Okay onward forward into the future.

So I also wanted to talk about the And this isn't gonna seem like it makes sense, but it totally will I also want to talk about the real-life assassins Yeah, just like a sassen screen one thing that blew my mind and they were a Muslim group, right? Yeah Islamic for sure which the Muslims were against the Templars were taking over there maybe Okay, but yes according to the game the Templars are trying to take over the world I'm not assassins are trying to stop them. I'm not even saying the game though I'm saying what from what you just told me that the Templars are holding this ground. Oh for sure that was taken from the Muslims Yes, obviously I want it back correct.

So supposedly there's a legit organization of assassins no, I mean there really was um There's a there's a guy called What was it called the net Nutella and what Rashid Allah didn't sign which probably sounds a little bit familiar He was known as the old man of the mountain there They had like this fortress called like Messiah castle And they were actually a splinter group of Muslims that didn't agree with like the you know the most popular Islamic face of the time Extremely Muslim is that where you're saying yeah, okay, so make sure you're on there good one man. I feel like an idiot I mean, I'm just seeing a lot of parallels. I feel like an idiot. Why so the assassins their real name was like Nestlems I started in right Hashashin or something like that and that was only in Not Arabic Egyptian Anyway, there's a couple different Pronunciations, but they were like the East may lie damn it man.

This is below my mind This isn't this isn't the big part, but the thing okay, you pronounce Islam Islam correct. Mm-hmm So give the s a hard ass Islam Islam Like ishmael like ishmael do you know the way oh? No, I'm fucking idiot ishmael is the first son of Abraham Which Islam is based on I never made that connection. Yeah, it makes sense each alum like each male yeah Yeah, islamic it's actually ishmael like like Christianity is Christ's entity right?

It's based on ishmael who's the first son of Abraham who he had with Hester Hester no Hager and a lot of people believe that because God said your firstborn son will have the blessing of you know of God and that you know that The line will continue through you well He lived to like you know 103 and had not had a son his wife Sarah said you know go ahead hook up with your slave girl That's where ishmael came from ishmael and Hagar were thrown out of the tribe according Christianity Gorn Muslims like that's where we're going with yeah, because because the blessing passed on dish. Yeah, I had never made that connection How do you I didn't know any of that you just told me okay makes sense not they tell me though But yeah, I'd never made that connection. I thought I thought Islam was Muhammad so Saladin or Saladin I don't know how to pronounce his name Saladin was the leader of The Muslims at the time that took they eventually did end up winning and taking Jerusalem back the assassins had already killed a couple of his lieutenants and Saladin was approaching the the fortress and where they really got their you know their mythos I mean the assassins already attempted Saladin's life twice. He was like no problem I'm gonna take out the old man of the mountain, you know Rashid the king of dinner job or whatever his name is Rosagul Rosagul basically yeah, so the assassins failed both times the old man of the mountains like I'm gonna handle the ship So the legend goes and this is in Saladin's journal.

It's not from the assassin side so Saladin is the traditional Muslim leader He's a general and eventually retook there is an actual journal from him. Yes, absolutely and he's killing the assassins Yes, because he's because they're a splinter group of the Muslims. Okay, he's saying listen He's why them out unite. He's afraid that they're gonna you uh, align with the Templars.

That's why he's attacking them. Gotcha. Yeah, so He approaches them Then his odd or whatever his name is just cements The the myth and legend of the assassins by doing it himself his two previous assassins failed to assassinate Saladin and the story goes that Saladin came back From dinner one night saw like smoke bomb like a sizzle flash smoke everywhere like black powder Didn't know what was going on when the smoke cleared dude like you know Cameo style like like look back at him and then spooked out into the night over in his bed night Knife in his bed with a note on it like bitch. It's right out.

Yeah, and he was like, okay I'm done with these guys totally left the assassins alone out Fast forward assassins pretty much quiet later on they didn't fuck with too much at this point Saladin eventually takes over the Templars. Yeah, yada. Okay, I'm gonna fast forward a little bit here for free So they took over in 1099 roughly they were in control for 200 years in this time. They built up farms vineyards Manufacturing imports shipbuilding they were given lots of control because of their power So they they made a name for themselves through propaganda and a couple of really good battles But didn't have to fight all that much their name eventually carried them on its own where shit the tellers Listen, we give us just take what you want absolutely and they were legitimized I think we talked about this at one point by a st.

Bernard they don't the Catholic Cardinal and Basically given free reign. They were allowed to cross any border laws did not apply to them the Templars were the shit You cannot fuck with the Templars and it's actually shown throughout history like people wanted that job That was like the government job of the Middle Ages like they're well documented as like being healthy having good families Being able to revive for themselves now. That's being in the temple. It's not the Templar Knights Either one really either one.

Yeah, I guess since there's such a big name. They don't really have to fight It's like I was like the American Army, but not really because people die and then that's we're only important when it was militarily important It's like CLTIM six kind of like they show up. I mean they're gonna teach it out There's a possibility something crazy happens, but for the most part well just just think about this like think about let's just pretend that like the Gambino family was in Charleston Mm-hmm Legitimately here. Yeah, and somebody was like and you and you knew about it.

Mm-hmm. Everybody knew about it Yeah, and there were nothing to do about it And you know you're about to get into some sort of dealing and somebody was like yo This is a Gambino shit. You'd be like oh fuck okay. My bad.

I'm out. Whatever you say Oh, yeah, either I'm not dealing with it or or I want to be involved because you guys run shit Yeah, what do you want me to do? What do you want me? Yeah?

Whatever pretty much and that was kind of the deal like They were gangsters almost a little bit they controlled things. I mean do they like take protection money and shit? I'm kind of right. Oh, but better than that.

That's what I'm saying like they were gifted large tracts of land Like really nice real estate. So they didn't have to I didn't have to show me like listen if you pass We won't know the Muslims that is more like oh, hey, here's our money Mm-hmm. There's a common practice for them to take an aristocrat with no military background Who's wealthy and put them in charge of the area? Very much like small government style not so much like the five them or if you've done like a lot of your Followed where it was like Lord and manner in the American yeah They basically just wanted somebody with a name and power and influence to continue running the area.

Yeah very common I mean they really sound like a they sound like a black water Someone's like a it's like a sword for hire, but it's like when they show up you kind of have to hire them Yeah, and I even have to so like oh, they're here I'm just gonna pay them to be here because They're definitely gonna protect me while they're here and maybe if I move enough influence then I'll kind of have control of them And by kind of I mean I mean I can't tell them to do whatever but I can tell them to hey guard this particular area or this particular area Yeah, exactly so there are a couple of the things I mean treasure wise that the people don't really know what they found So along with all of these non-canon scrolls papyrus etc then you can kind of slide into like the damn Brown idea of Well, they found the the gospel of Mary or the revelation of Mary whatever lineage of Christ or let me have a chris etc a lot of people think a couple things they found a substantial amount of money or Something that was so valuable that they could control people in the holy land knowledge that was so earth shattering Correct that you could control people which I mean either one would make sense because they became so powerful so quickly It's insane like that they developed banks so fast. It blows my mind. Yeah, they had a vast network that I mean We're talking before trains. I mean for vehicle any more vehicles I mean the Templars had a vast network of banks.

They had local militias. They had a large, you know Standing army which I mean in Europe at the time even 3,000 horseback men that had been trained and battle-hardened will be a fucking imposing force I mean, yeah, I had a fucking Navy well like there's all kinds of shit that didn't exist at the time They don't retreat unless it's three to one. Correct. Obviously like one of their dudes is as good as three of a regular arm Well, they're not gonna give up.

Yeah, anyway, so moving on I was a person we'll be right and we're back. Okay, so we've well established that the temple is pretty powerful. Correct. They have lots of money Lots of dough influence everywhere.

So what happened to them? Why aren't they here anymore? Well, if you go with the legend, yes that French king betrayed them King Philip. Yep the second Mm-hmm.

When did the Catholic Church was like a pope these motherfuckers over here accused them of all kinds of crazy shit What's but not but Bahamut Bahamut which they're supposed to like some really like some big statue that the Church of Satanism is building a Bahamut and whatever anyways, it looks really cool. It's all enough anyway, so Basically King Philip decided that he didn't want to pay the Templars anymore He wanted he convinced the pope was it he didn't want to pay him that he was like so in debt that he was like shit Yeah, and so that's that's one of the things that blows my mind is not only did they amass all this wealth and lands and Businesses they became super powerful in really not a lot of time. Well, I mean so as America I agree, but at the same time we owe a lot of people money. Exactly that we're basically kind of like you never get in that bag I mean kind of yeah, I mean you're not getting back.

It's true You can take it so they accuse the Templars of all kinds of shit that made them sound horrible to the church Public enemy number one they they're devil worshippers they and honestly I think that that's where a lot of the more mythical Ideas about the Templars come from like worshiping the head of John the Baptist. It's a weird one Yeah, it is and like making them spit on the cross. This these were all reasons for King Philip to Knock back the Templars like we need to get rid of these motherfuckers. Okay, so the Templars left the ones that didn't get fucked left Jerusalem, you know well, yeah, absolutely left Jerusalem because they lost well you don't they left far before they were betrayed The Templars were already driven out so the mozzlem the Muslim and take it back over had already taken Jerusalem The the decline had already begun, but they had moved I mean they've moved back.

I mean they're pretty well entrenched Yeah, they'd move back into European society Friday the 13th Storyos they're burning the steak all kinds of crazy shit like the grandmaster like cursed whoever like yeah You're gonna die and supposedly King Phil died and so does son and a skiing accident or some bullshit That's not the important part important part is then it was illegal to be a Templar. It was very important that they dissafuckin peer Yeah, that's a word. Just fucking beard. So all over Europe everyone's chasing the Templars So a couple of key things happen.

They Disappear they take their money and they get the fuck out. So there's a couple of big things that happen Scotland It's got us right. Oh flood rubber flood. There's guy in Scotland that's sympathetic to Templars.

He accepts them the navy the Templar Navy They're very strong navy They were called on by several nations to fuck up the Egyptians because the Egyptians were very very powerful on the water and The Templars fucked him up non-stop. That's that's important later on some shouldn't even know And then there were all the the Templars throughout Europe who then I mean they're super influential Yeah, they're powerful. They knew lots of people so the second most powerful Organization that was not a church was The masons apparently they were not known as free masons until the 10th large joined to the masons where the next largest power in the area Yes, they were secular or non-church based. Yeah, so the 10th large with their influence They had all the money they had They could easily get into any organization they want absolutely they knew the new people.

Yeah, I mean those were the guys that the new shit I mean the same businesses like when senators retire and they become Exactly. Well obvious. Yeah, oh, you know, you know, all these people want you to know Yeah, absolutely. And so that's what happened to a lot of them.

They became masons and essentially took over the order I mean that as mentioned in the last episode the highest order mason is a Templar. Is it Templar or Templar night? I think it's Templar night one very interesting thing I don't know if I believe it or not, but they say The Jolly Roger, which is on my snuggy here right next to me, which is on our logo. It is on our logo Is the flag of the Knights of Malta and apparently the Knights of Malta became I mean kind of the Pirates of the Caribbean like they were elite fighters in a navy who had no country who knew how to fuck people up They left so they left with shitloads of money.

Hoards of gold. Where do these motherfuckers get hoards of gold? Oh my god from Templar treasure They became some of the most notorious pirates their the Jolly Roger was their symbol whole separate thing Like they weren't Templar nights anymore, but the Knights of Malta became Pirates That's I mean, it's it's a historical fact the Knights of Malta are pirates and they Collaborate now. Yeah, they collaborated with the East India Company and there's all kinds of shit I didn't even get into it.

I didn't really read into it. They were out stealing it meant the government was after them and they were just Outlaws basically. Yeah, they're allos on the water and pirates weren't necessarily new thing at the time They didn't like make up the profession, but they already had their like they're a berry in their treasure. Fuck it.

We're bad asses Let's get out of here. There's a lot of information that the Templars already were well aware of the new world And and sailed back and forth many times beforehand. So I mean like what was calling this 1492. Yeah, don't like Oh, yeah, it was only like what okay only like a thousand years before that the temple is disbanded Yeah, which and the history where I wasn't long at all.

No well in the Vikings were here before earlier. Yeah, supposedly also related. Yeah. What?

Yeah. Oh my god Hold on. It's coming. What was the only one I said?

Oh, this got it. Yeah, it's got right. Yeah, that's kind of important The interesting one are the big players the big players that were in Europe That didn't you know, they weren't sailors didn't have access to they were just leaders. They were leaders They were fucking ballers.

They were running the shit. They were the ones running the shit They were the ones that had like big houses in Spain. Yeah with their own fucking like 200-man army They were taking care of shit and then suddenly thanks to uh Mr. Dickhead in France Being a Templar was illegal for a while and all of Europe knew it and it was like totally fine to execute those motherfuckers and take their shit and this is a continent wide banking network Manufacturing network.

I mean fucking everything these were the motherfuckers that ran shit for 200 years And they were hunted down and captured and killed so they were on the run They're taking all their money taking all their knowledge all their treasure and getting the fuck out. Yeah, they're joining the masons They're hiding anywhere the term Lasek fair or I think it's la se fair is whatever it means free passage Is it is a mason term that they would like it was like secret code for like yo I'm one of you get me the fuck out of here. Yeah, the most powerful Left with their armies and their money to an undeveloped area very close to France you look at me like I studied social studies so You know it doesn't seem like can't stand it doesn't seem like We're all the templars are existing anymore. I mean nobody talks about them.

Yeah They don't exist right? Oh wait wait wait wait wait Why am I saying a red cross and white and on the flag in my head? Did I not just say that before you showed it to me? Yeah, you did other fucking Switzerland bro.

Holy shit. Hold on. It gets better No, no, no, no, no, it gets better. That makes a lot of fucking sense.

Hang on. Hang on. You know what's directly east of France Oh fucking Switzerland and it's isn't yes And it's that was north in this it's in it's in the at the bottom of the Alps if you were fleeing somewhere Like France where 9,000 at the time when King Philip betrayed them. That's where they're from remember the templars were French Yeah, they're king fuck them You're not gonna send all your guys And that's I mean those are just your main guys you're gonna send to the the fucking meeting that they had with King Philip You're gonna build your army up close by to where you need to that's gonna be your largest concentration That's where you're from 9,000 templars lived in France at the time And they all most of them made it out to Switzerland.

Yes, which at time was not Switzerland. Obviously no It was not hang on there's no more there is Hang the fuck on you mean Switzerland the country that's slowly growing in power. Oh secretly behind that down. Yeah, this is of course Of course.

Hey, you remember how long I said the templars were in power like 200 years right right? So when did it start? 1099 so let's call it 1100 1100 to 1300 when did the Swiss Confederacy begin what? 1300 exactly it gets better What?

If you're a fucking criminal, what do you do with your money? You put it in a fucking Swiss bank. Yo, what? What where's where's their cross shit?

Where's their cross? Oh, we're not involved in any wars Yeah, they stay the fuck out of everything. Are you sure? Well, they say the fuck out of everything.

Hey, guess who has crosses on shit? Hmm let's think about that for a minute. Can you think of any other? Blonde-haired blue-eyed cross countries that had a cross on their flag?

No, the fucking Nazis. Oh, maybe they funded the fucking Nazis the whole fucking time What? What? And involved with the church and I'm about to tell you why.

Hang on hold up. Yeah. Yeah, you feeling it? You feeling it?

You feeling it where it's blowing your fucking mind. So the Swiss Army which is you know now just like a Swiss knife right you know the only people that that can Protect the pope the Swiss Army. No shut the fuck up. Yes.

There's there's a special army created by the pope Who are not subject to laws at all given by the pope? It's not like the Vatican army. Nope Shut the fuck up. I'm serious.

I want to say something. I don't say are you mind blowing right now? A little bit. Yeah, um So, but why would well, I mean, I guess I kind of get it in a it's right in your face, isn't it?

I was gonna say why would the Swiss support the Nazis but at the same time like I mean I don't know But then that means the founding of Switzerland conforms exactly to the period when templars were persecuted in France Is exactly east of France easy to get to but why wouldn't frant? Why wouldn't the templars were big in banking farming and engineering? Why wouldn't france go over there? Those things you place in high they could get into the mountains they ended up taking it over But if they established themselves in 1300s, right?

That means like this is swisterland and it's like why wouldn't france be like this is not swisterland and go over there and fuck them up True. If they're outlawed. You want to see something? I mean I kind of do shut the fuck up I'm the city of London British flag red cross in the middle the Vikings red cross Nina pinto Santa Maria red cross That's where I knew it from that's what I was I was like there's a ship I'm thinking of with the red cross on it, but then what about the Vatican militia red cross what's right next to that?

Red Cross fucking everywhere dude. What about the red cross also? Yeah also yes for real. Yeah, I mean it makes sense It really does dude.

It's far-fetched, but not far-fetched at the same time far-fetched at all So when you think of Swiss people, what do you think easy going? No, I mean looks I can be blonde hair blue-eyed white people on here fucking blue-eyed Nazis that makes sense Yeah, cuz always it always bugged me that Hitler was like well on here blue-eyed beautiful Germans and it's like And you also don't have one here but lies get this the country is founded by three different nations Switzerland yeah, there's French people Italians and Germans that fucking hate each other But why are they formed? Why are they why did they come together because those are the Templars and they're like yeah, I mean they gather people from the best fighters from all those areas Yeah, they've stayed out of every war they haven't been involved. They're slowly climbing in they've got all the money Yeah, they don't respond to any threat.

No, it's like I'm trying to tell the criminals to find the The Royal Swiss Army I gotta find it now that makes me question though over time Have they been slowly like amassing like this huge army underground of course like all these weapons of like Disasterous like I don't know America wouldn't fuck with them because they could they have something crazy. Where's sir? Oh fuck Oh, sir. Where's that at?

Where is it again? Could you remind me where sir is you know the super Hadron Collider? It's over a couple countries, but I think I think it's based in Switzerland Holy shit, dude. Yeah right in front of your face.

There's a Templar cross on their motherfucking flag forever. It's right in your face And there's the fucking Indian God on the statue out front. Yeah, there's all that shit the destruction all that fucking shit Holy shit, dude, right. You see why I was blown away Where where I totally started agreeing what moment did you go?

Oh shit when they fled when I was when I was looking into when they fled and I was like where they fled and They fled where were they flee and I'm like looking at a map and I'm like, well the only place that they could get away with it That moment right there So The flag with the flag. I'm like you mean the flag with the fucking cross on it. That's red white. Yeah.

Yeah, it's red in your face Now my wife just being you know where people go to hide money great as she is was like, you know, it's a white cross on a right background Yeah, obviously they probably did that like a nudge nudge wink wink watch We're the white cross people and not the red cross people dude, but seriously the That is a lot of the the the royal Swiss army is is like sanctioned by the pope. Oh, by the way I didn't bring up we mentioned in the last episode it was found in The 1800s I believe in vatican in the vatican that the pope at the time had pardon all the templars that he was like, yeah Fuck you philip pardon all the templars the royal Swiss army Has no jurisdiction. They're allowed to do whatever they want And they are the official guardians of the pope when he is traveling even the vatican's like it's not really close to Switzerland, isn't Yeah, Italy's south of Switzerland like how far south though I was like one country away or from the country. This is why I need a globe bro for real see we were talking about putting like a giant map downstairs I thought Italy and France were kind of close together like side by side and I thought Switzerland was way north I think in Norway though, right?

I thought Norway and Switzerland were next to each other So an interesting thing to me not very good in the map so besides and Okay, and I realized this is a little far-fetched So a lot of the templars supposedly became mercenaries people for hire. Yeah, which they kind of were before they didn't so is the Swiss army this Swiss army has Like these these guys that protect the pope are also like like hey, you want us to guard your country mercenaries? Yeah, and you know in small forces and throughout history, you know, well to that the Hessians which were German Hessian real close sounding to Haschishin These essence and and Terry's like well that wouldn't make any sense because the didn't like the templars I'm like didn't they because why would they attack Saladin and Saladin eventually overtook the templars It's a real possible that the assassin kree games are totally wrong that they said the assassin were a lot Because they splintered off from from the Islamic faith or two secret things that secret or Things that possibly had access to this Information hey listen like we know we know we know we know exactly right listen I'm not gonna fuck with you. You don't fuck with us.

Yeah, you guys stay in you know the middle eastern world and fuck shit up and we'll say you're up An area if we need somebody fucked up you get the oil people check this out King Richard's Lionheart also flash the red grass pretty handily Old man of the mountain the fucking leader of all of the assassins took a murder rap personally for King Richard the Lionheart Like King Richard killed somebody's like not he was accused of it anyway, and he was like no I call it I got that guy wow what and That's the beginning of all conspiracy. There is you're welcome everyone Holy shit, man. Shit is real and they're in control. Are they not are they not?

I don't know are they not is the Swiss armor still super badass Or could we crush them under a thumb knows exactly they're free of any law They've not been a part of any war. They have all the money they have crazy engineers and most people say Switzerland's fucking weird anybody you talk to that's ever been to Switzerland say the people are fucking strange as shit and the The three nations Germany French Italians don't like each other at all. Yeah, why the fuck do they live there? Maybe that's where they go when they want to get away where everybody knows their name That's fucking that's amazing.

Yeah, you like it. Yeah, I feel it. Yeah, my I got a lot I got a lot to brew through right right there. That's some heavy information man Like if you didn't believe any of the shit before how obvious is it?

It's on their flag It's to the east banking is their institution clearly they learned their lesson and are not involved in wars anymore No, they said they know where the power is yeah, like power is money power is money money's power. Yeah, and it's true Yeah, and they're they're all over everything. They're literally on which always the orb and the scepter of Queen of England. Yes, they're on the orb.

They're on the the cross of the Of the nazis they're on the cross of of the Vikings the red cross is all over the place I'm gonna play devil's advocate and it could have just been a reuse symbol just like the swastika was technically wasn't like it Was he or not he really? Yeah, doesn't that shit fucking line up crazy though? Yeah, man doesn't that shit line up crazy? That's pretty crazy line up.

You talk about the symbols But I want geographically I wonder where they're from what makes the most sense do they still adhere to their I don't know. I don't think they say sir is there maybe they they got there and they're like listen Here's all of our knowledge was pull us all together. Listen. We're no longer than five for it will be a country Yeah, so now we're country but I'm a tough fuck up Dan.

You're not technically they're still powerful because What do they know have the money the knowledge? They have the they still have all the same stuff that they had they have the Vatican backing them Which is hugely influential they have the knowledge. Yeah, whatever they brought in uh-huh and they the money from the Swiss bank account Oh the fuck can they stay so immune? It's such a tiny country the only thing nobody's ever tried to fuck with them That's not saying like nobody's ever tried to take over Switzerland when America like arrests like a big time fucking something that they go Listen, we need Swiss bank account records, right?

It's happened a few times Okay, it has happened a few times but only when they admitted to it only under extreme pressure I'm sure we waterboarded some other fuckers here and there yeah, but I'm just wondering if like has america roasted powers like Fuck, you know, we went more towards this banking and peaceful area now America's kind of there. We're not as trans-but-dewer. I mean Birthplace pretty fucking obvious. It definitely sounds like that's not an era I mean you want to talk about the godfather of all conspiracies if the templers were born there But the templers were made up of the Germans the French and the Italians because those were the closest countries There were templers already there.

Yeah, but why why the blonde hair blue eyes? Where does that come from? I don't know mr. Race Illuminati.

Maybe they're breeding Jesus clones. That's a race Illuminati. That's why they're supporting Hitler Maybe man. Maybe they're like hey, we're templars, but you can't have a baby It's kind of kind of lines up though.

Swiss kind of sounds like German Maybe we need to become masons to find the truth out man. I'm telling you man From the from the beginning up into the modern era. I mean that's like the birthplace of all conspiracies right there So we opened up with welcome we opened up with the theme song in the Jones And you wouldn't tell me what you wanted to close with you said it's it's something badass. So Well, it's it's every bow.

I'm Brent. I'm Dan and I think we just solved the templar conspiracy I don't think it's a conspiracy anymore. It's a soft case Now we need to go to switch the language for a little forever Is
