In this episode, we dive into the future of artificial intelligence (AI) and its potential impact on society. We explore the rapid advancement of technology and the increasing use of AI in finding solutions quickly.
Dr. Myla Bui shares her belief that a balance between AI and humanity will eventually be achieved, and emphasizes the role of nature and humanity in maintaining this balance. We discuss the need for ethical guidelines and responsible regulations to safeguard humanity as AI continues to develop. Joey points out the importance of mental and emotional health in an era where people are increasingly detaching from physical spaces.
Dr. Bui highlights the limitations and challenges of virtual reality and the crucial need for deep human relationships outside of social media. We also touch on the potential of chatbots for social interaction in nursing homes, and the demand for robot companions.
Throughout the conversation, we acknowledge the potential challenges and biases in AI development. Dr. Bui shares her insights on the interconnectedness of technology with human psychology and sociology, and the importance of curiosity and personal growth.
We reflect on the ethical considerations of AI and the interdisciplinary nature of AI research. Ultimately, we hope this discussion inspires curiosity and involvement in the positive development of AI.

This episode explores the world of micro-terrestrials, mini-UFOs, and their tiny occupants in Malaysia. The hosts discuss various encounters with small UFOs and miniature humanoid beings reported by children and adults. These encounters include sightings on school grounds, beaches, and soccer fields. The hosts highlight the lack of awareness and pop culture influence surrounding these encounters in Malaysia compared to other regions. They also mention the presence of normal-sized crafts appearing in later years. Overall, the episode provides a fascinating look into the lesser-known aspect of UFO encounters. In part of the conversation, Gil and Joey discuss a newspaper article from 1970 about a micro-terrestrial encounter at a Malaysian school. They highlight the biases and dismissive attitudes of the newspaper towards the witnesses and the phenomenon. They also discuss the reactions of the townspeople and the potential influence of external pressure on suppressing the truth. The conversation touches on the idea of controlling the narrative and the possibility of similar incidents happening unnoticed. They also make humorous observations about the tiny aliens wearing tracksuits and the connection to microtransactions in video games.

Pedro Pablo Nakada Ludeña, also known as El Apostol de la Muerte, was a serial killer from Peru. He had a traumatic childhood, with an abusive father and a mentally ill mother. He claimed to have been assaulted and raped by his siblings at a young age. Pedro joined the Peruvian Air Force but was quickly kicked out due to his diagnosis of paranoid schizophrenia and psychopathic tendencies. He found pleasure in killing animals and claimed to have killed his first human victim for stealing a watermelon. Pedro Pablo Nakada Ludeña, also known as The Cleaner embarked on a murder spree in Peru, claiming 17 victims in less than two years. His delusions led him to believe that he was a 'cleaner' who needed to rid society of prostitutes, drug addicts, homosexuals, and robbers. His first victim was shot on a beach, and he proceeded to steal the victim's money and wallet. Pedro's murders followed a pattern of shooting his victims and then stealing their belongings. Listen in as Joey takes us through his life and murders and Gil gives us his takes on some theories of his brother Vayron Jonathan Nakada Ludeña.

👉 Beer, Boos, Boogeymen: https://bcr.bio/next-b3/ Demons of war, described as hideous, flying, vampiric humanoids, appear in mythologies and folklore across different cultures and time periods. These demons feed on the blood and souls of dying warriors on the battlefield. The similarities in their descriptions, despite being from different continents and cultures, raise questions about their origins and significance. The demons of war evoke fear and represent the extreme violence and suffering associated with warfare. The presence of these demons in different cultures suggests a universal understanding of the horrors of war. During the Vietnam War, the US Army issued red light night vision goggles to troops, but they were quickly recalled due to unexpected side effects. Soldiers wearing the goggles began acting strange and reported seeing things that others couldn't. One night, a gunner on a helicopter opened fire at flying demons he claimed to see with the goggles on. The commanding officer put on the goggles and also witnessed the demons. This incident highlights the potential dangers and hallucinatory effects of early night vision technology. In this conversation, Gil and Joey discuss supernatural encounters in war zones, focusing on two specific stories. The first story involves soldiers in Vietnam who were issued red light night vision goggles that allowed them to see demonic creatures. The soldiers reported similar sightings and experienced PTSD-like symptoms after using the goggles. The second story comes from an army medic deployed in Iraq in 2006, who witnessed a black figure emitting smoke and heard screeching noises. Both stories highlight the presence of supernatural entities in war zones and the lasting effects on those who encounter them.

In Episode 93, we delved deep into a narrative that toes the line between covert operations and the stuff of science fiction. This is just the first part of a two-part series where we scrutinize an event that's as unnerving as it is unbelievable; a story involving DC Long, an Army Airborne Ranger, who stumbled upon a sight that challenged reality itself beneath the earth at a clandestine location dubbed "Range 19." In 2010, amidst the tapestry of military life near Fort Bragg—recently renamed Fort Liberty—DC Long accompanied his father, a contractor for the Department of Defense, on a routine job site evaluation. Or so they thought. What they encountered was a military operation shrouded in secrecy, where they were escorted into an underground facility. Once inside, they were greeted by a puzzling vision: a gargantuan granite slab suspended in midair. Looming in the dim light, with scientists milling about, the slab hovered without any visible means of support, vibrating yet deathly silent, while a strange black box sat on top. DC's riveting experience sounds like something ripped from the pages of a speculative novel, yet its implications are rooted in our world's stark reality.
