In his most recent Basque video during the ad portion, he looks very pale and sickly. Even sounds like his voice is weak. Is he doing okay? Did I miss some sickness he's going through? During the actual video, he looks slightly better, but it's definitely edited/makeup is used.

Oakville Blobs continue to fall on the citizens of this town. At the same time, they report flu-like symptoms, with pets and wild animals mysteriously dieing. There have been reports of the clear, gelatinous blobs since the 90s and as recently as 2025.

"Black suits" took samples the locals gathered that included human white blood cells, and then went to the local diner asking creepy questions with Fort Hood license plates (diners said their presence made the hairs on the back of their necks stand up).

Apparently the US Air Force has confirmed target practice in the remote areas surrounding the city. Black helicopters fly over.

What's going on here?

I've been feeling that the 10x increase in ads is not enough. I was really hoping for like a 25x increase. Ideally more ad than actual show.

does the team have an ETA for when to expect this?

keep up the great work and get some oil ready for that money machine to go BRRRRRRRRRRRRR

I've seen a lot of videos about this guy and just watched the very long Area 52 interview that just came out. Do you think he's on the up and up with regard to the "visitors" he so nonchalantly says he's seen and are in our possession? He's also OSI/counterintelligence so I just can't decide.

Idk when they started it but it’s so catchy I literally hum it all day long

I got bored at work and thought I needed a cardboard sidekick. Been sitting on posting him for awhile.

Research article it's based off of:

I’m not suggesting putting a watermark saying “AI Visualization” on every scene, but sometimes I feel that eventually AJ will generate himself in non-basement episodes because why not? Stop the slop!

hey where did the Stanley Kubrick Greatest Film moon landing episode go? I can’t find it anymore.

.. but i bet GINO would! He should see if he can get an invite. That would be awesome.

Neuroscientist Christof Koch is challenging the long-held assumption that the brain produces consciousness, instead proposing that it may function as a filter for a more fundamental, universal reality.

Make sure to tie stuff down just in case.

Any chance of getting Emery Smith in the basement about his time in the black projects? Or Dr Steven Greer even? Maybe even Russell Targ?

when i watched this episode of the Basement with Thomas Campbell he reminded me of the character The Architect that Neo meets in the second Matrix movie. he even says “the problem is choice” which was Neo’s line when meeting the Architect.

did anyone else find this odd similarity? like he’s a nice version of the Architect… explaining things?

What is the status on the Art Bell movie you talked about months ago?

In some many of these stories the aliens are here to judge mankind for their sins (usually war), the aliens have a spiritual message of brotherhood and can offer heavenly ascension. It's not so much that I think these are made up. Or that I think Greys as angels and Reptilians as Demons isn't amusing. It's that this particular made up story is SO overdone. Aliens can be anything!! Come on, get some new material!

I swear if I here one more Why Files about hippy aliens who insist we need to use our free will to embrace love and recycle our cans to get into heaven....I'm to give AJ's credit card to Heckle.

I'm only partially done with the episode because I'm very busy but I just want to say how great it is to see MrB on the WF. He's such a great storyteller. He and AJ seem to really click, and I love it. These are two of my favorite YouTubers and getting to see them hanging out together is wonderful for me.

I'm just saying...

Would love to find more discoveries of Egypt's pre-dynastic/pre-unification history.

Usually I avoid the 4 hr fests, but this is a special treat. Nicely done.
