So we're in a little bit of a research, research mode before we started the episode. But anyway, we're a podcast, Fun Fact Friday, but today we're some something, something Sunday. Yo. I'm running a little hot here. I got my mic up too, all right, but Yeah, normally we're funfactfriday, Comcast. We're just running a little late this week because so we got some family members in town. We were like, Hey, let's go hang out
with them. So we didn't get to record on our normal, normal time and after school activities and just general busyness, but, yeah, fun fact, Friday. We're typically on Friday, so that's that's how it goes. But today, something? Something Sunday, yeah. So what is it? What is our show on this weekend? We are going to be talking about the Phantom time hypothesis. But in the process of researching this, Leila was slamming her mouse around and popped off the
front of it. The it's one of those that the top easily comes off, so you can change the battery or, you know, alter things inside of it. And she's like, it's an apple mouse. And I'm like, because it was laying flat against the table pretty much. And I was like, Apple mouses don't have two buttons, though. And she's like, what? And she went to research it, no way start the show, because I want you to research this live and have your have your mind blown here. Apple Magic Mouse.
So they do sell a specialty, one that has a right click. Why? But typically an apple mouse only has one button, and if you want to do fancy stuff on it, you have to hold the command button, not control. It's command on Apple. It's just like a little touchpad with, like, extra stuff on it. It's that double tap with two fingers got swipe left with two fingers. I'm not swiping on a mouse. No, no. It's It's messed up and it's stupid, and swipe right with two fingers.
Tim Apple, or whoever's in charge of Apple now, needs to, needs to just get with the program and go with the second mouse button. You know, I know. So we're Steve Jobs. Initially hated the concept of a multi button mouse. Why is he just that much of like a like grasp the concept that a mouse can have more than one button. Oh no. It wanted everything to be simple and user friendly. And the user friendliness that Steve Jobs brought to the computer world is should be should be
noted. However, I prefer functionality over user friendliness most of the time. But that's also because I've, I've been accused of being a nerd. I don't, I don't agree with that, that hypothesis, but, um, I have sorry if I go silent about this episode. My nose is very stepped up, right? She's been battling it because the seasons are changing here in eastern North Carolina, and you know that that happens sometimes. I'm not, I'm not 100% either, but we're gonna push
through. We're gonna we're gonna press on, because that's what we do here. I've been, I've been working on getting our network set up with some neat stuff, Minecraft server and stuff like that. If anybody's interested in me, like going into how I'm doing all that with the network, let me know. Maybe I'll do a special episode or something. Maybe I'll start a YouTube channel, be a YouTuber, but, yeah, we're gonna be talking about the Phantom time
hypothesis. This is something that I found very interesting the first time I heard about it, and maybe y'all find it a little interesting too. But first, we're moving around a little bit, and we're going to do support at the beginning, because we have a lot of boosts to go through. And you'll just have to let me know when to stop Leila if you see one that we've already done. Because I don't I'm not sure which ones we've already done here. So we have received some boosts, and I'll
be going back. I think. Let's see. Okay, I know that this one we've already done. Okay, 12321, SATs from Kevin hallis. He rhymes with fallacy. Yeah, we'll get rid of that one that was on fountain. I believe so. Well, you know what? We'll say it again. Let me undo, undo, undo. There we go. We'll do this one again. 12,321 Satoshis from Kevin Hallisey, rhymes with fallacy, and it's for Episode 200 with John C Dvorak, congrats on 200 milestones are great, but getting past them can be quite a
relief. Yes, it can. I do believe we've said that one before, but thanks again. That was a big old boost. Yeah. Then we received a 847 SATs from Kevin Hallisey for Episode 200 and I'm not, I'm not 100% positive this was meant for us, because I'm not remembering where this would fit into the episode, yeah, I don't know what it means, but I'm enjoying the mystery I used to want to know the secret of. Good trick or illusion, but now I just enjoy the wonder, or the or the wonder
of the effect. I can't, I can't, is it with the foot, with the 847 maybe it might have to do with the 847 because we're always talking about, what does it mean? Yeah. Let us know. Yeah. Let us know. Like one set to explain it, right? But no, I when it comes to tricks or illusions, I have to, like, I sit there and rack my brain until I figure out how it's done, or at least have a good explanation in my own brain
of how it's done. There is a a guy, I can't remember his name, but he's offering, like, a million dollars if anybody can can prove something paranormal exists, or that if you can actually do a magic trick, that's actually magic that he cannot explain, then he'll give you a million bucks, right? And he did a he had this guy come and try and, you know, win the million dollars. And he showed him this, this illusion, or
whatever. And I figured out how the guy could have done it using, you know, very tiny electronics, but it was all an April Fool's joke, like the he wrote him the check for the million dollars, and he did all the thing. Then was like, oh, it's April Fool's haha. But I was like, I know how he could have done that without it being an April Fool's joke and cheating Anywho. Thank you for the 847 we got another 847 from just listening. 847 is going crazy here. All right, all
right. So, and it says, you see that one? You wanna read that one? Lily's sauerkraut, pickled on its own juices. I don't know what that means. Remember, we're talking about sauerkraut with Dvorak. Oh, yeah, so who's Lily? I don't know. Maybe, maybe someone on the episode we mentioned right as possible. That's possible. Or maybe that's the brand that John DaVinci, I don't remember, hey, but yeah, that'd be a good t
shirt. Yeah, just a big, a big bowl, because sauerkraut is not a, it's not a dish that you would look at for prettiness, yeah, it's really gross looking. So a picture of sauerkraut just pickled in its own juices underneath it, that'd be because some merch, 200 SATs from just listening episode 200 exclamation point. That was for the episode 200 and then I did a test boost for different something else. Okay? And then we got the big one for the week, and it is 11,011 SATs from Kevin
helsey. That's, uh, Snake Eyes, double Snake Eyes. Boost, 11. 1111. Oh, 11. You all right? Bless you. Yeah, that's a good one. I'm not getting sick, guys, you're not getting sick, not you're not getting sick. And it was we actually in addition to loving the fact that we got 11,000 SATs, yeah, 11,011 sets. It's important for numerology purposes. The note on this one was very helpful, says it was for Episode 158, unintention vention, which I knew that long ago. Yeah, it's a long time ago.
Oh, but yeah, people go back and listen to all previous episodes. So great episode. This might be a good one to share with new fans or anyone needing the wisdom of the three key rules for life. Oh my gosh. Okay, I'll say number one, number two, number three, and you you read the rules. You ready? Okay. Number one, don't catch yourself on fire. Number two, keep it clean. Number three, don't eat mold. That's your three rules for life, for life, leave us on a t shirt. Okay,
okay, let me get back. I buy that to the note. A great mix of facts, trivia, stories, laughs and chapter art by dreb Scott and elevens, because Leila and David, much like Spinal Tap rocket at 11. Do you understand that reference? So amps turn up to 11 or turn up to 10, right? Yeah, I know that reference, right. Okay, yeah. So you're saying turn it up to 11, yeah, on the movies, This Is Spinal Tap. They have an amp that has an 11 on it because they rock harder than anybody else louder.
They love that repainted the numbers anyway. Thank you so much. Kevin halicsey, and would that see that that information is great that we I knew that was a good episode. I remember pushing stop on that one. And we're like, wow, that was a good one. Oh yeah, but yeah, we'll let folks know. That's a really good starting point for the show to get our thing. And also, if you, if you listen to the show shortly after we release it, which most people will listen
by, like Monday. And if the chapters aren't quite done yet, go back at some point when you know you got a few minutes and look at the chapter art that dreb puts in for different chapters. He does some pretty fun stuff in there. He does so and we always appreciate that. And that's our that's our support for this episode. Don't know we have any don't have any PayPal. I thought we got a Cash App donation. Oh my gosh. So I'm sitting there working on something probably nerdy, and
Mike. That shop goes off from someone, I don't recognize the name, and it's $100 and I'm like, wow. And it said for misc, and I'm like, Oh, wow, we gotta, we got a big old $100 donation. So I was waiting for like, a email or something that explained, you know, what, what it was for. Like, you know, if it was a donation or it turns out they just sounded the wrong person. Yeah, it was just someone, and
they requested it back. Like, two minutes later, yeah, after I sent the little thank you emoji, praise hands emoji, they requested it back. I was like, Oh, dang, now I can't get quit playing with my mouse. Oh no, but you got onto me for playing with the multi tool. It was, oh my gosh. I got my nerves. All right. All right. Today's topic, let's get into phantom thank you for everybody. If you want to support the show, you can go to funfactfriday com, click the donate button. Lots of
different ways to do that. You can go to store dot funfactfriday com and pick out a t shirt or some stickers or a mousepad. All kinds of good ways to support the show there. And yeah, and just shoot us a note. We always appreciate notes, especially like this one here. It tells us it helps us out. It lets us know what episode to tell people to go check out. Yeah, that was very helpful. And yeah, so the Phantom time hypothesis, what did you know about this before I chose it as a topic? I
knew about this. I knew that there was some people that thought that we were living in a time before we thought that we were so, like, we're living back in like 1700 ish, right,
or so. So basically, the theory says that there that some folks change the calendar we'll get into who and why, and there's 297 years missing, which would mean it's like, what, 1727 27 Yeah, so it's actually the year 1727 instead of 2024 so that's, you know, 297 years were added to the calendar, and that actually puts us in the 1700s so I'm like, wait a minute, that doesn't make any sense. Because I feel like that doesn't make
any sense. But then they were like, the missing years were between the years ad 614, and the year 19 or 911 Not, not like, you know, like the year nine, 911 So, and it all comes down to this one dude, ilig, is his name, and he was basically like, hold on a minute. He was digging around, and he's like, Oh, I don't, I don't think this is right, because there's not, like, any new art dated to those
years. If you look at stuff that happened in like the year 610, and then stuff that happened in the year like nine, 975, the archeological styles, not archeological architectural styles are all like, like, nothing happened. So it's like, he's kind of like, wow, there's like, nothing happened between these years. So then it started looking like, maybe somebody changed the calendar. And he's
like, why? So this is the hypothesis, the Phantom time hypothesis is basically the Holy Roman Emperor Otto the third, and Pope Sylvester the second, and quite possibly Constantine the seventh, messed with the dating system and cooked up and cooked the books. So to say so that basically they were in charge at the year 1000 because, you know, hey, the year 1000 you know, that's a cool, cool number, right? And that's, yeah,
that's the theory. Illig maintains that these three rulers tinkered with the documents to make up historical events such as Charlemagne, that they planted fake evidence, and they commanded everybody under them to go along with it. So ilig said that there was, like, no original historical documents for that time period, and that's it was called, like the dark ages. So there's, there's, that was basically his whole push,
right? Yeah. And he said that the people go back and say, Oh, well, there's, you know, we've dated things. We do have things that were dated from that. And he's like, No, I don't think, I don't think the dating methods
are really super accurate. And I agree that some of the dating methods that have been used aren't accurate, because they're constantly having to revise stuff and, you know, samples aren't pure and things like that, yeah, but, you know, most of the time decently accurate, but not I feel like they they kind of know what they're talking about, but some they do make some. Assumptions.
I'm always, I'm always on the on the fence about that, especially the older, the older, something goes like, past before, you know, before humans recorded history. Yeah, I'm kind of, I'm always a little suspicious of they're like, Oh, this is exactly 65,278,412 years old. Like, Nah, yeah, exactly. I don't know about it, especially when it was this long ago, right? Like, oh, we don't have anything from that specific
year, right? Um, ilig said that the presence of Romanesque architecture in the 10th century Western Europe suggested the Roman era was not as long as conventionally
thought. It also says that the time at the time of the introduction of the Gregorian calendar, in the year 1582, there should have been a discrepancy of 13 days between the Julian calendar and the real or tropical calendar, which astronomers and mathematicians working with Pope Gregory the 13th one x1 Yeah, the 13th had found civil calendar needed to
be adjusted by only 10 days. So I'm gonna go into a little bit here about how what we're talking about with this 10 and 13 days, because this fascinates me. The planet, it do be moving, and sometimes we have to have leap years because it doesn't have, which, today is the fall Solstice, yep, and so it's fall. Happy, fall. Y'all should really say Equinox, but you know what I mean? Is it Solstice or Equinox? It's Equinox. Oh, well, I don't want co pilot. Oh no, it went away
Equinox? Yeah, you think Solstice is like summer and winter? Yeah, yeah, um. So, okay, so you've got 365 days most years, 366 sometimes, making February have 29 days. Remember, like Leap Day. I remember leap year. So here's the thing, it's the the the year is not exactly 365.25 it's like 360 5.241 weird little number. What in 2024, 2028, I get a vote, and it's gonna be the next league here. I'm mad about it. Oh my gosh. Leila is gonna be voting. Y'all, don't entrust me with that.
Don't entrust me with the you know, hey, being able to vote, you don't have to. It's not mandatory yet. That's true yet. It's mandatory in Australia, if I'm if I'm not mistaken, unless they've changed something since I last heard well, they just like show up at your door and be like, Well, I think so. I think they like, they show up at your door and they throw you in a big bus and take you down to the voting station, all right, but they provide drinks. So, oh, yeah, I'd vote for a drink.
Get a vote. You get to get a soda, and they give you like an Oreo. And you're like, yeah, it was all worth it. Little blood for an Oreo. No big deal. No big deal. Okay, we'll get into Dubuque. Okay, so, okay, so this is cool. I've just learned this recently. I knew that every four years, if it's a multiple of four, then it has a leap year, right? So you're you know this year is a leap year. But then I found out that if the day is evenly divisible by 100 then you don't add the Leap Year
Day. But then I was like, hold on a minute. I was around in the year 2000 and in the year 2000 we did have a leap day, right? That was a leap year. And we had February 29 I remember, right? And then I continue reading, and it says, but it's not divisible by 400 so if the year is divisible, just make it. Make every year 10 days, and then we'll be good. Every year is 10 days long. Yeah, that's perfect. And days that's two hours, hours that's like one two, that's like an hour, yeah, just shorten
everything. Just short everything, no, what we should do is just do away with all of it, except for seconds, yeah. Like, what time is it? 428,000,000,000,640 Yeah. Oh, thanks, dude. I gotta be, I gotta be at, um, a meeting at 400,000 40 trillion, by the time you finish saying it like, it's already, like, 40 more of whatever, exactly, like, sorry, I actually mean, no, I'd be cool with just telling to, like, having days just like,
What day is it? Oh, it's 247 instead of months and all that stuff, yeah, just have numbers. I'm a big fan of like, instead of saying, Oh, I'm 14 years old, you say like, Oh yeah, I'm blank months old or days, Yeah, hold on. I can look it up. Keep up with your days. Look at it every morning. Yeah? Then that way people ask you, or whatever. But yeah. So if it's divisible by 100 but not divisible by 400 those are the those are the exceptions to the every four
years. So in the year 2100 you will not have a leap year, even though it's divisible by four. I'm 5295 days old. Oh, you just told everybody your birthday. I can't remember your birthday. I mean, yeah, but anyway, so that they may and one of the earlier calendars, the they thought it was 360, 5.25 and it's not it's three, basically 5.24 blah, blah, blah, blah, right, which is not a big deal, but over the course of hundreds of years, that adds up to a day, like 128 years, or something like that,
it adds up to a full day. So the calendars were off by 10 or 13 days, depending on which numbering system you're using. So this elig guy saw that and was like, Well, man, they were messing with a calendar. Maybe they messed with the calendar a lot more than they really messed with the calendar. And he kind of went off on this whole thing about there being phantom time, yeah. And I'm like, this is a neat thing. Let me look into it.
And the more I looked into it, the more I was like, oh, okay, this probably isn't true. Yeah, that's that's of most but I theories. Well, I've said this before on this show. I've said it on other shows that I've been on, that when I hear a new theory and it makes sense just on its face, I'm like, oh, that's neat. I kind of believe that, but like, I'm not gonna, like, go whole hog and start believing something, just because, you
know. So I'm gonna research it a little bit and research a little bit before I start being a proponent of it. I'm not really a proponent of many things, except for, like, my faith, you know. But I'm not really proponent of many things. And comedy. Comedy, if it's a if there's a bit, you stick with the bit, and you do the bit, and
you commit to it absolutely. So debunking the Phantom time theory, it's not hard to do, yeah, mainly because his, all of his stuff that he did, it was a German guy, and all the stuff that he talks about, all kind of focuses on, like a Eurocentric, Eurocentric type worldview, like he doesn't look into the Chinese dating system, for example, which goes back way further than the European dating system. So because what's the current year, Chinese year, look that up real
quick. So it also doesn't take into account astrological events that we know happened on a certain gear because of, like pre BC texts, like historical texts for the Bible, biblical histories, non biblical histories of that era that we know that talked about, like eclipses and astrological events, which you can use the, you know, astrological programs that let you go back in time and see what the sky would look like at a certain place, and figure out exactly what year those
things happen, and how many years has happened since then. And you start doing all that. So what years the Chinese? Oh, yeah, I don't know how to find it. How do you look it up? Say, what's the Chinese? Current Chinese year? Yeah, it's just saying, Oh, this just stand as the year's Dragon, yes. Current Chinese what's the calendar called? I don't know. I want to say it's in like, the 4000s or something, though, let's see Chinese calendar 2024, that's just gonna
tell you, yeah, anyway. But I could, I could swear that it goes back a long, long time. And I'm we're trying to keep from having dead air while we're researching this. Okay, here we go. Chinese calendar conversion, English and Chinese date calendar from horo prolara.com i i put in today's date. Here we go, September 20. Oh, that's not even right, Huh? Interesting. Anyway, it is the eighth month, 21st day that in China of the
Year. Yeah, because it's the future, because it's 23rd Okay, so, yeah, um, 4722 is the year, the eighth month of the year, 4722 and it's not a leap month. Nice. Well, that was good information at all. I'll totally use one day, Yep, yeah, we spent a couple minutes trying to find. Mind we spent only seconds. Yeah, with the power of pausing, pausing, we just pause. Sometimes we can't figure something out. One of us would just like, throw our hand up in the air and just hit the hot
button. And that's the thing is, if you don't take into account the fact that they've had a running calendar for 4000 years, consistently, the Pope and all of them would have had to go to China and say, hey, look, we're deleting 297, years. We're going to need y'all to go ahead and do the same, exactly so. And then, like I said, the astrological stuff, like, we know when there's going to be an eclipse. We know every Eclipse that's
happened in the past. And if you go back and look at the dates that the Eclipse has happened based on the current time of the time, and do the calendar all the math, you know math, if you do all that, I love math. This whole theory kind of falls apart. But I do find it interesting that there was 300 years in Europe where, like, nothing happened. It just, I mean, stuff happened, but it was so just lacking. Well, they call it the Dark Ages, for a reason.
Yeah, a lot of people, a lot of people, didn't survive plagues and things like that. So you know, when you're when you're just trying to survive for a couple of generations, you don't have a whole lot of time to make art that's going to last. Yeah, you don't have a lot of rich people commissioning people to build big buildings or, you know, things like that. So I get
it. I get it. And, you know, there's been, like, conspiracy theory type shows about this, and they make it sound fairly plausible by, you know, bringing into question dating methods, talking showing you pictures of stuff. But we should have watched the crash course on it, right? I think I watched the Y files on it recently, and I was like, oh, okay, but he, he gets real debunky. And some of the times when he's debunking something, he goes a little too far and makes some assumptions
that I wouldn't make. Yeah, so, you know, take, you take the debunking for as much of a grain of the salt as you do for the theory, depending on the evidence. You look at the evidence, and then you look at who's giving the evidence. Because sometimes people do lie. I think I've watched this one. We have we have to watch crash courses for my history class. What's Crash Course? It's to do with John Green. And they just explain events in history in a very in a way that it's easy to
understand. Okay, that's cool. Yeah, it's really neat. And I love John Green. This is one of the things that gets me. It's like we have green, if you want to come on our show, if you're listening right now, because we know you are, please come on our show. I believe John
Green's a listener. So one of the things that gets me is like, we have the technology now to have things like that, like Crash Course, and if it's a really good information and it goes along with the curriculum of the state, because you know what the state says, or the county, or the county, or the whatever, lot of federal money moving around too. But we're not going to get into all that. The government would never lie. Come on. Yeah, you got quoted on on x. Oh no, what I do? You got quoted on
x? Want me to bring it up? Yes, let me bring it up as of course. Christopher battles, thank you for all the PR mentions that Christopher battle is always doing there. Always appreciate those. Yeah, he's our unofficial, official official PR person, absolutely. So here we go. It says, and nothing we say can be construed against the US government, yep, Leila, episode 201, nutrition shapes. Oh man, yeah, so, but like you have stuff like, Crash Course, he was a history mostly,
yes, I think so, right? So he brings up these history topics in ways that makes it easy for the kids to remember, kids, teens or whatever, yeah, mostly teens, right? He does cuss a little tiny bit, right? But you have, like, show that to them. Like, I mean, obviously they are in your school, yeah? But like, if, because teachers can get real boring, right? Oh, yeah. And like, you can have the best, like, the best people teaching anybody by just showing
the videos. Yeah? You know, it looks like it's mostly science and history, yeah. So, like, have, and it's another thing, like, about the university systems and stuff like you've got. You always hear about like, this professor's the best professor in this field, and his lectures are the best, right? Record those sessions and let them watch them at any university. He's the best. Why shouldn't everybody get that knowledge no matter what university or school you go to?
And then the local professors and the local people there are there if you need, like, office time to help you understand what the best guy in the world is saying about it. You know, I mean, yeah, like, we should have the best teachers, the best minds teaching everybody we've never in history had the possibility for that to be a thing. So I started looking into some of that, and I found, you know, there's. There's a whole lot of college courses online
for free. You just don't get this, the paperwork saying that you've taken it and passed the class. So if you're just in it for the information, it's all out there, which is really cool, because I've learned, I've been learning a lot about Linux from some really smart people lately because of the internet. So anyway, that's the Phantom time hypothesis. Theory, theory, hypothesis. Well, you know, the hypothesis is the first part of
a theory. So you gotta, you gotta say, I think that no hypothesis is the first part of the experiment, scientific method, yeah, which sometimes, if you take the hypothesis, sometimes even just how your word the hypothesis, can construe things weird? Yeah, I hate the stupid scientific method. It's real dumb. Is every science fair project I've ever done. I've done one of them. I hated it. I think it's stupid. I think, why can't I
just do an experiment? I don't have to be like I think in the end, I think that it's gonna turn blue. Okay, so this is, I get it, but I think that there are some like, they don't, it doesn't count if you don't have a hypothesis, quote, unquote. But sometimes a colorless turns, yeah, you sometimes you need, don't need a hypothesis.
Sometimes, like having a hypothesis, like, puts those brain waves out there and like and like you're trying to make it turn blue exactly, whereas if, if you're just genuinely cured, what happens if I mix this and this exactly? It lets you learn. And you're like, be surprised, because sometimes you're like, I don't think anything will happen, or I think something will happen. That should be the hypothesis, yeah, I don't think anything will happen. Oh, I was wrong.
But when you get real specific about a hypothesis, yeah, but disappointed if it doesn't work, or you get, like an ego if it does, the idea of hypothesis is that you're you've got to have a clear goal, yeah, you're trying to do this. And I really feel like you're just kind of the person who, when you get a math problem, and you can just look at it and know the answer, it bothers you to have to write out, yeah, you did it. So being one of those people, you your brain just makes the hypothesis
inside. It's like, it's the writing it down, that's the problem. Oh, speaking of which, at homework. Oh no, remember, all right. Well, we're, we're right at our, our new, self imposed 30 minute limit, anyway, so I think we
limit. I think we've kind of, uh, I think we've kind of hit my big thing when I, when I went into this, seeing the the hypothesis of this whole theory is that he was very skeptical of the powers that be, yeah, and their authority to make a calendar, you know, it's like, Well, were they being corrupt in some way and changing something that maybe they shouldn't have changed? And I'm always for being skeptical of people in power, unless that person in power is me. Vote for me. Write
me in exactly. I'm gonna say, write me in one day, and somebody's gonna do it, and there's not gonna be anybody else running, and nobody wrote anybody else in, and I'm gonna get the office. I'm gonna be like, I don't know how to be a clerk of court. I can figure it out. I don't know how to be a Custodian of Records, or whatever the weird, the odd elected things are, yeah. But anyway, we appreciate everybody
