Hey Hey Hey Hey Time to put you middle to the test now.

Oh, bam, my little.

Hey hey, don't you know you're messing with the best now.

Uh huh, uh huh. So I know I'm normally the video games person here.

So I know I'm normally the video games person here. I know that's where I normally come into this, but I have to talk to you both about something that isn't video games and I don't know where else to do it.

I'm absolutely here for that. Yeah. I tell you what Laura if you don't want to talk about video games I am here to facilitate that desire. I support this bold new direction that you're taking on the

podcast. It's nice to not talk about video games for a change. This is the future.

And I'll say this, the story I'm going to tell you today might lead to future weeks where we don't talk about video games because this is an evolving story and it hasn't ended yet.

Please, I can only come so many times.

I need to tell you about the greatest thread of spam emails I've been receiving

for the last six weeks with an evolving narrative. Yes, looking forward to this.

So back in mid-April, I started getting spam emails from Bethia,

who is some kind of future-telling psychic,

and usually I spam all the spam emails straight away but there was

something about this one that I was like I need to not spam this I need to know where this is going.

First of all Bethia adamantly believes she knows my name, date of birth and year of

birth which are all completely wrong but she's very very confidently stating them.

Mm-hmm so she starts to you know it starts off nice and easy.

There's some kind of world-changing cosmic phenomenon and my

destinies at the center of it.

She makes some vague claims about me having unlimited untapped supernatural potential soon to burst forth.

Like, this is the nice gentle entry starting point.
