Pack your raincoat and your flannel, we’re heading to Grays Harbor in Washington, the salty gateway to the Pacific and the misty doorstep of the Olympic Peninsula. The most notable town on Grays Harbor is Aberdeen, hometown of Kurt Cobain. The town leans into its legacy with a welcome sign that reads “Come As You Are,” a nod to the iconic Nirvana anthem. Nearby, a humble highway sign became rock folklore and was eventually relocated due to its popularity with fans.

But Grays Harbor is more than grunge nostalgia. The stately Polson Museum, a 1924 riverfront mansion built by the Polson Logging Company family, houses antiques and logging relics that some visitors swear carry more than just dust. The museum gift shop shelves true crime tales like Deep in the Woods about the 1935 kidnapping of George Weyerhaeuser, and The Port of Missing Men, which recounts the chilling legend of sailor turned union man Billy Gohl.

Dubbed the “Ghoul of Grays Harbor,” Billy Gohl was accused of murdering dozens of sailors in the early 1900s, allegedly stealing their valuables and dumping their bodies into the harbor. Convicted of only two murders, he died in prison, but debate still churns like gray water. Was he a serial killer responsible for up to 100 deaths, or a convenient scapegoat for powerful men threatened by his labor activism? His legend lingers at his namesake — Billy’s Bar & Grill.

The harbor’s ghostly roll call does not end on land. The Lady Washington, a 1989 replica of the first American vessel to make landfall in the Pacific Northwest in 1788 under Captain Robert Gray, sails as a floating tribute to maritime history. Many believe old sea spirits are drawn out wherever the ship sails into port!

1
00:00:00.120 --> 00:00:02.399
There were a large amount of sailors in the area

2
00:00:02.439 --> 00:00:05.400
who were missing or found dead, and some believe Billy

3
00:00:05.519 --> 00:00:10.279
was responsible for anywhere between forty and one hundred deaths. Yikes,

4
00:00:10.279 --> 00:00:15.080
becoming known as the Ghoul of Gray's Harbor. I don't

5
00:00:15.119 --> 00:00:17.760
like to glorify murder, but that's a pretty good nickname,

6
00:00:18.039 --> 00:00:21.679
just saying, like, as monikers go, like fuck, that's a

7
00:00:21.719 --> 00:00:24.320
good one, the Ghoul, because it like kind of goes

8
00:00:24.320 --> 00:00:27.039
with his name and it's like the GMG. It's just

9
00:00:27.399 --> 00:00:34.039
I mean, superb reporting really really though, the alliteration of it.

10
00:00:34.039 --> 00:00:36.880
All the dark themes, the imagery.

11
00:00:39.280 --> 00:00:46.039
Hi Caitlin, Hi Cassie, Hi, creepy people. Henny, you felt

12
00:00:46.079 --> 00:00:50.399
mischievous when you did that. If anyone's watching the video,

13
00:00:50.880 --> 00:00:53.320
I mean for those of you watching the video.

14
00:00:53.320 --> 00:00:55.960
I feel like I'm just channeling you because this is

15
00:00:56.000 --> 00:00:58.840
that T shirt that you gave me so oh when

16
00:00:58.920 --> 00:00:59.359
you put that.

17
00:00:59.359 --> 00:01:04.400
On, I was like, oh, it looks familiar. Well, this

18
00:01:04.439 --> 00:01:07.719
is PNW Hanson Homicides, where we chat about true crime,

19
00:01:07.920 --> 00:01:11.920
the paranormal, our T shirts, and all things spooky in

20
00:01:12.000 --> 00:01:17.400
the Pacific Northwest or the p and W. If you're nasty,

21
00:01:18.640 --> 00:01:20.719
we also do terror reading at the end of every

22
00:01:20.840 --> 00:01:24.359
episode for some deeper insight into what we're talking about

23
00:01:24.400 --> 00:01:28.239
for the day. Ooh, so stick around if you're in

24
00:01:28.280 --> 00:01:30.480
for that. We haven't said that in a while. Oh,

25
00:01:30.560 --> 00:01:35.200
if you're into that, right, because we know you're sticking around. Well,

26
00:01:35.200 --> 00:01:40.239
today we're going to be visiting Gray's Harbor in Washington. Ooh.

27
00:01:40.439 --> 00:01:44.400
It's the gateway to the Pacific Ocean and the Olympic Peninsula,

28
00:01:45.159 --> 00:01:49.200
or so it says on their website. I mean, well, yeah,

29
00:01:49.319 --> 00:01:52.079
it's about one hundred and four miles southwest of Seattle,

30
00:01:52.719 --> 00:01:56.280
and the main river flowing into the harbor is the Shahalis.

31
00:01:56.879 --> 00:02:00.920
Close by is the Quinault Reservation and Lake Lodge, which

32
00:02:00.920 --> 00:02:03.840
we've done an episode on that we have. Then I

33
00:02:03.879 --> 00:02:06.359
went there and I found out it was totally haunted.

34
00:02:06.400 --> 00:02:07.760
After I stayed.

35
00:02:09.159 --> 00:02:14.319
That honestly, that's very on brand for me. That would

36
00:02:14.360 --> 00:02:16.680
be the way that I would want that to go down.

37
00:02:17.280 --> 00:02:19.159
I don't know how I didn't. I don't know how

38
00:02:19.199 --> 00:02:20.759
I didn't look it up. We've talked about it on

39
00:02:20.800 --> 00:02:23.240
the episode though, I actually had an experience there, So

40
00:02:23.759 --> 00:02:27.360
go back and listen if you don't know what I mean. Yeah,

41
00:02:27.439 --> 00:02:30.759
but on my way up there, I drove through the

42
00:02:30.879 --> 00:02:36.080
largest town on Gray Harbor, Aberdeen. Ooh, and something happened

43
00:02:36.120 --> 00:02:38.840
that still upsets me to this day. I may have

44
00:02:38.960 --> 00:02:41.960
mentioned it before, I don't know, maybe in that episode

45
00:02:42.000 --> 00:02:44.039
about Lake Quanall, but I'm going to bring it up

46
00:02:44.039 --> 00:02:47.800
again because it's relevant. Okay, I missed taking a photo

47
00:02:47.840 --> 00:02:50.199
of one of the coolest things I've ever seen. Their

48
00:02:50.280 --> 00:02:54.479
welcome sign. Aberdeen is the hometown of Kurt Cobain. You

49
00:02:54.719 --> 00:02:56.840
might have heard of him. He was in a little

50
00:02:56.879 --> 00:03:01.560
Seattle grunge band called Nirvana. Yeah, and the sign reads

51
00:03:01.680 --> 00:03:05.039
Welcome to Aberdeen, Come as you are. I love it.

52
00:03:05.120 --> 00:03:08.439
I think it's the cutest thing ever. And I just

53
00:03:08.719 --> 00:03:11.360
I'm so pissed at myself for not getting a picture

54
00:03:11.360 --> 00:03:14.719
of it. But it just means I have to go back, honestly.

55
00:03:15.120 --> 00:03:18.400
The song title from Nirvana's second album was added to

56
00:03:18.439 --> 00:03:21.719
the welcome sign in two thousand and five in commemoration

57
00:03:21.840 --> 00:03:24.080
of Kurt, who passed in ninety four.

58
00:03:24.439 --> 00:03:26.400
I was gonna say two thousand and five.

59
00:03:27.199 --> 00:03:30.280
I thought they added it sooner than that, But yeah,

60
00:03:30.360 --> 00:03:34.479
I'm trying to say, like further back, yes, thank you, Yeah.

61
00:03:34.120 --> 00:03:38.199
Yeah, no, but you know what you mean like sooner after, yeah,

62
00:03:38.240 --> 00:03:39.800
became famous, sooner.

63
00:03:39.599 --> 00:03:43.560
After his passing, Like that's a long time in between.

64
00:03:44.120 --> 00:03:46.960
They did it for like the ten year anniversary of

65
00:03:46.960 --> 00:03:48.960
his passing, but it was like a year after that,

66
00:03:49.120 --> 00:03:52.000
so they didn't really quite hit it on the ten

67
00:03:52.080 --> 00:03:56.599
year mark, but yeah, they tried anyway. While we're in

68
00:03:56.639 --> 00:04:00.360
the area and on the subject of signage, is a

69
00:04:00.400 --> 00:04:03.599
popular highway sign that had to be taken down due

70
00:04:03.639 --> 00:04:06.560
to the amount of people constantly taking pictures with it

71
00:04:06.680 --> 00:04:08.400
and causing traffic hazards.

72
00:04:09.159 --> 00:04:10.039
Ooh.

73
00:04:10.199 --> 00:04:15.159
The sign simply states the distances to Elma, Montesano and Aberdeen,

74
00:04:15.840 --> 00:04:20.439
those being six miles, sixteen miles, and twenty six miles.

75
00:04:21.839 --> 00:04:26.600
The draw is a famous photo of Nirvana's bassist christ

76
00:04:26.759 --> 00:04:30.120
Nova Selch holding Kurt up to cover the one in

77
00:04:30.160 --> 00:04:33.920
the two on the sign, showing only the numbers six

78
00:04:34.079 --> 00:04:37.839
six six. Okay, do you want to send the picture

79
00:04:37.920 --> 00:04:40.879
to you real quick? Yeah? I can totally see like

80
00:04:41.199 --> 00:04:45.319
why people want to go and recreate it because it's fun.

81
00:04:45.720 --> 00:04:48.279
Yeah, it sounds pretty iconic. I'm not gonna lie.

82
00:04:48.959 --> 00:04:53.360
I love it. It's adorable and he's like holding him

83
00:04:53.399 --> 00:04:56.120
like like one leg I don't know, it just looks

84
00:04:56.160 --> 00:04:59.959
like strongman down there. It really does. Yeah, he looked

85
00:05:00.000 --> 00:05:04.639
it's like a big guy. Uh. In twenty eighteen, they

86
00:05:04.759 --> 00:05:08.040
finally decided they had to change the twenty sixth to

87
00:05:08.120 --> 00:05:11.439
a twenty seven, even though that was not the accurate

88
00:05:11.439 --> 00:05:16.120
dissonance to Aberdeen. Stop it. Yeah, what I know, And

89
00:05:16.240 --> 00:05:19.079
I feel like people still I think they graffeited it

90
00:05:19.399 --> 00:05:21.360
and like put a six on it. Anyway, it would

91
00:05:21.439 --> 00:05:26.240
just caused it didn't help the situation. They're like, no,

92
00:05:26.879 --> 00:05:32.240
the same right. Yeah. Also, to just like change the

93
00:05:32.319 --> 00:05:35.040
mileage and it not even be correct is very odd.

94
00:05:35.759 --> 00:05:39.480
Yeah, Like, can't we just move the sign, Like can't

95
00:05:39.519 --> 00:05:41.759
we put it like a mile earlier?

96
00:05:42.319 --> 00:05:45.160
But then they would have to like, well, you'll see

97
00:05:45.199 --> 00:05:49.360
what happens. Okay, So the old sign was removed to

98
00:05:49.519 --> 00:05:52.839
preserve and eventually turn into an art installation where people

99
00:05:52.839 --> 00:05:55.759
can safely admire and take photos of it not being

100
00:05:55.800 --> 00:05:59.160
on the side of a highway. Love that in a

101
00:05:59.199 --> 00:06:03.160
new highway side was installed in a new location, accurately

102
00:06:03.199 --> 00:06:06.639
showing the distances to the three towns of five, fifteen

103
00:06:06.720 --> 00:06:10.600
and twenty five. Oh, they did a mile up, but

104
00:06:10.680 --> 00:06:14.560
they had to change the entire sign. Yeah, well, and

105
00:06:14.600 --> 00:06:17.160
people still go and like take pictures with that one too,

106
00:06:17.199 --> 00:06:19.720
but not, oh, I mean, because it's not as cool.

107
00:06:19.920 --> 00:06:22.959
But yeah, that's not what our episode is about today.

108
00:06:22.959 --> 00:06:26.199
That was just some fun facts of things in Aberdeen, Okay,

109
00:06:26.279 --> 00:06:29.160
which is right on the on Gray Harbor, Grayce Harbor,

110
00:06:29.240 --> 00:06:32.759
Grace Harbor, Grey's Anatomy. Is that what Gray's Anatomy is

111
00:06:32.839 --> 00:06:34.560
named after? Because it's in Seattle?

112
00:06:35.759 --> 00:06:39.199
You know, I think Grey's Anatomy is named.

113
00:06:38.920 --> 00:06:43.160
After the textbook what I was just making a joke,

114
00:06:43.360 --> 00:06:47.160
but I didn't know that there was a textbook fun facts.

115
00:06:47.319 --> 00:06:51.600
I know there are several places around the harbor that

116
00:06:51.720 --> 00:06:55.720
may have some paranormal activity, one of which is the

117
00:06:55.800 --> 00:07:01.639
Poulson Museum, a riverfront colonial mansion, the former home of

118
00:07:01.839 --> 00:07:06.360
owners of the Poulson Logging Company. Ooh and it was

119
00:07:06.399 --> 00:07:08.680
built in nineteen twenty four, so pretty old.

120
00:07:09.399 --> 00:07:11.800
That's like the dream.

121
00:07:11.120 --> 00:07:13.800
Loggers probably like made bank back in the day. Well,

122
00:07:13.879 --> 00:07:18.199
I mean we know that, Oh yeah, it's not probably. Yeah,

123
00:07:18.360 --> 00:07:22.319
you ever heard of the Warehousers. Funny you say that.

124
00:07:22.680 --> 00:07:25.800
I think they said too in my readings in my research,

125
00:07:26.000 --> 00:07:28.439
I didn't really write it down, but Aberdeen was like

126
00:07:28.480 --> 00:07:31.360
the logging capital of the world back then or something.

127
00:07:31.720 --> 00:07:35.120
I believe it. So the museum is now full of

128
00:07:35.199 --> 00:07:40.040
antiques of the time and logging historical artifacts, and some

129
00:07:40.160 --> 00:07:45.240
visitors think that these items have pretty spooky vibes. Okay,

130
00:07:45.920 --> 00:07:49.600
others believe it is home to a lady in white apparition.

131
00:07:50.600 --> 00:07:53.839
Oh my Gord, can't get away without a lady in

132
00:07:53.920 --> 00:08:00.959
white ghost and a ghostly child. No, no, because they

133
00:08:01.079 --> 00:08:03.720
have they have kind of the room set up like

134
00:08:03.800 --> 00:08:06.079
how they used to be. So they have like a kitchen,

135
00:08:06.120 --> 00:08:07.920
and they have a nursery, and so they think the

136
00:08:08.000 --> 00:08:09.800
child ghost lives in the nursery.

137
00:08:10.040 --> 00:08:15.240
Oh, like, you're ruining my art deco mansion with this

138
00:08:15.519 --> 00:08:17.800
creepy abandoned nursery.

139
00:08:18.279 --> 00:08:20.279
We'll see. What you have to do is if you

140
00:08:20.360 --> 00:08:23.800
have something like that, don't fill it with real antiques

141
00:08:23.839 --> 00:08:26.399
and artifacts. You have to do replicas so that the

142
00:08:26.519 --> 00:08:29.120
energy isn't attached. Because I can definitely see ergic.

143
00:08:29.319 --> 00:08:32.360
I like non haunted antiques.

144
00:08:33.240 --> 00:08:37.759
I feel like no antiques can get away without energy.

145
00:08:37.919 --> 00:08:41.240
Like all of them have something, I mean energy, but

146
00:08:41.279 --> 00:08:44.879
they're not all haunted. Yeah that's true, but you never know.

147
00:08:45.120 --> 00:08:46.840
I don't know. You just never know what's going to

148
00:08:46.879 --> 00:08:50.639
come with a little child, ghost or whatever for sure.

149
00:08:51.240 --> 00:08:53.679
So they have a gift shop and it has a

150
00:08:53.720 --> 00:08:57.919
few books in stock, and one of which Caitlin has

151
00:08:57.960 --> 00:09:01.120
covered Deep in the Woods about the nineteen thirty five

152
00:09:01.200 --> 00:09:05.879
George Warehouser kidnapping. Of course, the funny I threw that

153
00:09:05.960 --> 00:09:09.799
in and you mentioned it, like you knew. Honestly, I didn't.

154
00:09:09.960 --> 00:09:13.320
It just is like it's such an obvious, like, yeah,

155
00:09:13.360 --> 00:09:15.080
that's right what my head went to.

156
00:09:15.679 --> 00:09:17.480
And if you guys haven't heard it, we actually talked

157
00:09:17.480 --> 00:09:19.480
to the author of that book in the episode, so

158
00:09:19.600 --> 00:09:22.759
I was pretty cool, so cool. I kind of forgot

159
00:09:22.759 --> 00:09:26.759
about that until I started writing that and I was like, oh, yeah, yeah,

160
00:09:26.320 --> 00:09:30.960
I know. He was so awesome. He was really really nice.

161
00:09:31.159 --> 00:09:33.679
Those are like some of my favorite episodes still.

162
00:09:33.840 --> 00:09:36.679
I know, honestly, he was such a cool person to

163
00:09:36.720 --> 00:09:40.919
talk to in his personal stories from like actually meeting

164
00:09:41.080 --> 00:09:42.960
George before I asked.

165
00:09:42.799 --> 00:09:47.679
Him, like, whoa, it's a must listen. I'm honored. They

166
00:09:47.720 --> 00:09:50.799
do have another true crime book in the gift shop

167
00:09:50.879 --> 00:09:55.639
as well, the Port of Missing Men. It's about an

168
00:09:55.639 --> 00:10:01.159
early nineteen hundred serial killer, Billy Gole. Hmmm have you

169
00:10:01.200 --> 00:10:04.240
heard of him? M I'm not going to deep dive

170
00:10:04.279 --> 00:10:07.039
it obviously. Well, hopefully it doesn't ruin anything for you.

171
00:10:07.080 --> 00:10:09.240
Were you planning on covering it, because I might ruin it?

172
00:10:10.080 --> 00:10:13.159
You know, I think it would be interesting to talk

173
00:10:13.200 --> 00:10:14.440
about it at some point.

174
00:10:14.799 --> 00:10:17.320
I haven't chosen it as a case, and I.

175
00:10:17.279 --> 00:10:20.240
Feel like you got here first, you stay keeped, that's

176
00:10:20.279 --> 00:10:21.600
your flag, baby.

177
00:10:21.879 --> 00:10:24.480
I would definitely be interested, like you should get the

178
00:10:24.480 --> 00:10:26.279
book and do it to whole deep dive on it,

179
00:10:26.360 --> 00:10:29.000
because yeah, what I have is just kind of you

180
00:10:29.000 --> 00:10:31.120
know what the articles say. I didn't actually get the

181
00:10:31.120 --> 00:10:33.480
book and read it, because we all know I don't.

182
00:10:33.840 --> 00:10:36.840
I don't do the murder so well exactly.

183
00:10:36.960 --> 00:10:40.919
I feel like we we can talk about adjacent or

184
00:10:40.960 --> 00:10:44.840
even the same topics, and we're approaching it from like

185
00:10:45.039 --> 00:10:46.240
very different angles.

186
00:10:46.519 --> 00:10:49.960
Yeah, because it's two different genres. But I would be

187
00:10:50.080 --> 00:10:53.440
interested to know more because of what I have to

188
00:10:53.480 --> 00:10:56.720
say about it. So we'll get into it. But before that,

189
00:10:57.519 --> 00:10:59.879
I kind of freaked out because I kept reading his

190
00:11:00.080 --> 00:11:05.559
last name is Gorol, not Goal, it's g oo h L,

191
00:11:05.879 --> 00:11:07.720
And I was reading it like Dave Grole and I

192
00:11:07.759 --> 00:11:09.879
was like, oh my god, is he related to And

193
00:11:09.960 --> 00:11:11.519
I'm like talking about Nirvana.

194
00:11:12.240 --> 00:11:16.679
That would be too freaking wild spoiler alert.

195
00:11:16.720 --> 00:11:19.840
He's not, I mean good for Dave. I was kind

196
00:11:19.840 --> 00:11:22.720
of spiraling though and going like full conspiracy and I

197
00:11:22.879 --> 00:11:24.600
had to look it up because I was like, did

198
00:11:24.600 --> 00:11:27.159
he just drop like add an R to his name

199
00:11:27.200 --> 00:11:29.600
because he didn't want to be associated.

200
00:11:29.519 --> 00:11:31.120
Right like it's Ellis Island.

201
00:11:31.440 --> 00:11:34.320
Yeah, but it doesn't it doesn't appear to be the case.

202
00:11:34.360 --> 00:11:36.440
I was just, you know, I don't know. Maybe we

203
00:11:36.480 --> 00:11:39.240
can start a new conspiracy theory here on this podcast

204
00:11:39.399 --> 00:11:41.840
that Dave Gole is related to Billy Goal.

205
00:11:42.960 --> 00:11:43.399
Could it be?

206
00:11:44.240 --> 00:11:49.480
I don't know, you never know, you never know. But anyway,

207
00:11:49.679 --> 00:11:56.399
onto the the serial killer. Yay. Billy was a sailor

208
00:11:56.440 --> 00:12:00.279
who eventually became a bartender and representative for or the

209
00:12:00.399 --> 00:12:06.480
Sailors Union of the Pacific. When settling in Aberdeen, sailors

210
00:12:06.480 --> 00:12:09.480
from all over would come by his office to collect

211
00:12:09.639 --> 00:12:13.360
mail and deposit valuables for what they assumed would be

212
00:12:13.440 --> 00:12:17.639
safe keeping. Uh oh, it is said that he was

213
00:12:17.720 --> 00:12:21.720
not in fact keeping the sailors valuable safe, but instead

214
00:12:21.799 --> 00:12:27.639
stealing them for himself. Well who could have seen that coming. Well,

215
00:12:27.639 --> 00:12:30.720
it gets a little worse because it's also said that he,

216
00:12:31.480 --> 00:12:34.919
after stealing from them, would kill and dispose of their bodies.

217
00:12:34.960 --> 00:12:38.159
In Gray's Harbor, there were a large amount of sailors

218
00:12:38.200 --> 00:12:41.159
in the area who were missing or found dead, and

219
00:12:41.240 --> 00:12:44.399
some believe Billy was responsible for anywhere between forty and

220
00:12:44.440 --> 00:12:49.639
one hundred deaths yikes, becoming known as the Ghule of

221
00:12:49.840 --> 00:12:54.960
Gray's Harbor, which is like, I don't like to glorify murder,

222
00:12:54.960 --> 00:12:56.120
but that's a pretty good nick.

223
00:12:56.279 --> 00:13:00.679
It's a pretty good yeah, pretty good like ass go

224
00:13:01.120 --> 00:13:02.320
like fuck, that's.

225
00:13:02.159 --> 00:13:05.120
A good one, the ghoul because it like kind of

226
00:13:05.120 --> 00:13:07.879
goes with his name and it's like the GMG, it's

227
00:13:07.960 --> 00:13:12.120
just I mean, superb reporting.

228
00:13:12.399 --> 00:13:16.879
Really really though, the alliteration of it all, I know,

229
00:13:18.000 --> 00:13:20.879
the dark themes, the imagery.

230
00:13:20.960 --> 00:13:24.679
He was arrested due to the confession of his alleged accomplice,

231
00:13:25.639 --> 00:13:29.200
convicted of only two murders and sentenced to life in

232
00:13:29.279 --> 00:13:33.960
Walla Walla Penitentiary. Only two though. It's like kind of

233
00:13:33.960 --> 00:13:35.679
what we talked about in your case, Like you have

234
00:13:35.720 --> 00:13:39.159
to have the evidence there to convict someone of a murder.

235
00:13:38.960 --> 00:13:44.759
Right, Yeah, I mean I do think you should have evidence. Yeah, yeah,

236
00:13:45.159 --> 00:13:46.480
called me a nitpicker.

237
00:13:47.759 --> 00:13:52.679
Billy died in prison from it says pneumonia and dementia

238
00:13:52.799 --> 00:13:56.960
paralytic caused by syphilis. But I'm like, can you die

239
00:13:57.000 --> 00:14:00.559
of two things at the exact same time or meet

240
00:14:00.600 --> 00:14:01.120
out the other.

241
00:14:02.159 --> 00:14:08.879
I think I think especially back then, where just based

242
00:14:08.919 --> 00:14:13.720
on the limitations of science, they probably had a hard

243
00:14:13.799 --> 00:14:19.120
time sometimes determining like this, this one thing is the

244
00:14:19.159 --> 00:14:22.440
precise cause. So I think a lot of times used

245
00:14:22.480 --> 00:14:26.399
to see this more where it was like, well, they

246
00:14:26.440 --> 00:14:28.840
had this thing that was sort of like a chronic

247
00:14:29.240 --> 00:14:31.440
or you know, even if it was a cute, they

248
00:14:31.519 --> 00:14:36.240
already had this like pre established disease or disorder, and

249
00:14:36.279 --> 00:14:41.879
then something like pneumonia if you're already physically compromised, if

250
00:14:41.919 --> 00:14:45.960
your immune system is compromised in some way, it can

251
00:14:46.360 --> 00:14:49.000
kind of just be a contributing factor.

252
00:14:50.000 --> 00:14:54.799
That's true. Yeah, This is where it gets interesting though,

253
00:14:54.960 --> 00:14:57.679
and kind of where that book comes into play. So

254
00:14:57.919 --> 00:15:01.639
historians argue that Billy was actually an advocate fighting to

255
00:15:01.720 --> 00:15:06.720
protect sailor labor rights and brutal work environments that could

256
00:15:06.720 --> 00:15:10.399
have probably been the cause of most of the missing

257
00:15:11.120 --> 00:15:13.919
sailors and the deaths of the sailors because it was

258
00:15:14.679 --> 00:15:19.120
freaking' rough. Yeah. Yeah, they believe that the outspoken Billy

259
00:15:19.279 --> 00:15:22.879
could have just been a scapegoat for the sailor's deaths,

260
00:15:22.919 --> 00:15:25.639
getting rid of someone who could rally the people to

261
00:15:25.799 --> 00:15:30.039
organize strikes, which would cause a lot of problems and

262
00:15:30.120 --> 00:15:35.120
lost profits for politicians and businessmen's businessmen in the area.

263
00:15:35.159 --> 00:15:37.639
So I thought that was pretty interesting. They like people

264
00:15:38.360 --> 00:15:42.240
developed this huge kind of like urban legend around him

265
00:15:42.559 --> 00:15:46.519
and that he killed one hundred people, but the historians

266
00:15:46.559 --> 00:15:48.159
think that's actually probably not the case.

267
00:15:49.360 --> 00:15:53.919
Yeah, I could see where I mean, And we see

268
00:15:53.919 --> 00:15:59.000
it in true crime cases where for any number of reasons,

269
00:15:59.600 --> 00:16:02.799
the number where victims becomes inflated, and whether it's the

270
00:16:02.879 --> 00:16:09.639
serial killer's own ego that like they're manufacturing that, or

271
00:16:09.759 --> 00:16:14.039
if it's like a myth of public opinion, if that

272
00:16:14.120 --> 00:16:14.639
makes sense.

273
00:16:14.840 --> 00:16:18.279
Yeah, and there were a ton of sailors that went missing,

274
00:16:18.440 --> 00:16:21.519
but it's not absolutely me and they're necessarily were murdered.

275
00:16:22.279 --> 00:16:26.320
Absolutely, I will say I had to look this up

276
00:16:26.440 --> 00:16:29.679
because for a long time, like I think I've talked

277
00:16:29.679 --> 00:16:33.639
about it before, you know, we've covered you know, cases

278
00:16:33.679 --> 00:16:38.440
in Alaska and other places where it's come up that

279
00:16:38.639 --> 00:16:42.480
like my dad was a commercial fisherman in Alaska and

280
00:16:43.519 --> 00:16:47.840
for a long time, Like most of like the entirety

281
00:16:47.919 --> 00:16:52.720
of my life, I've always like heard and read that

282
00:16:52.919 --> 00:16:56.480
like being a commercial fisherman, like specifically like a crab

283
00:16:57.399 --> 00:16:59.240
Like if you're on a crab boat, that's supposed to

284
00:16:59.279 --> 00:17:03.000
be like the deadly, Like that's why they call it deadly,

285
00:17:03.039 --> 00:17:06.759
a sketch, Like it's a very dangerous job. What's interesting

286
00:17:06.799 --> 00:17:08.759
to me as I was looking to see, like what

287
00:17:09.079 --> 00:17:11.160
is the most dangerous job?

288
00:17:11.319 --> 00:17:12.319
Because I was.

289
00:17:12.279 --> 00:17:15.240
Like, you know, maybe this has shifted I feel like

290
00:17:15.319 --> 00:17:20.680
in the last maybe handful of years, just given like

291
00:17:20.720 --> 00:17:25.799
if there's regulatory changes or there's new like safety implements

292
00:17:25.839 --> 00:17:30.440
that make it less dangerous. But it's particularly relevant here

293
00:17:30.480 --> 00:17:36.400
because it says logging workers are recently ranked as having

294
00:17:36.440 --> 00:17:37.880
the most dangerous job.

295
00:17:38.720 --> 00:17:42.160
Damn. I mean, yeah, I could see that, yeah.

296
00:17:41.759 --> 00:17:46.440
But it does say fishing and hunting workers. It's kind

297
00:17:46.440 --> 00:17:50.920
of the it's like logging, fishing and hunting.

298
00:17:51.680 --> 00:17:53.960
So it's like you can have all the safety precautions

299
00:17:54.000 --> 00:17:57.279
you want, but you're in fucking nature, like especially though

300
00:17:57.440 --> 00:17:59.720
the sea, the sea is unpredictable.

301
00:18:01.000 --> 00:18:04.279
Yep. Well, and those sailors they've been known to have

302
00:18:04.279 --> 00:18:05.799
a drink or too yep.

303
00:18:06.000 --> 00:18:06.839
I'm sure they did.

304
00:18:07.119 --> 00:18:08.319
Tale as old as time.

305
00:18:09.359 --> 00:18:12.160
Speaking of a drink or too. Billy has a namesake

306
00:18:12.240 --> 00:18:15.200
bar called Billy's Bar and Grill. It is not the

307
00:18:15.240 --> 00:18:19.240
same building where his saloon and his office were, okay,

308
00:18:19.519 --> 00:18:23.960
but they have adopted his Lucky seven house rules. Would

309
00:18:23.960 --> 00:18:24.680
you like to hear them?

310
00:18:24.880 --> 00:18:25.079
Oh?

311
00:18:25.160 --> 00:18:29.079
Yeah? Number one always serve high quality food and beverages.

312
00:18:29.559 --> 00:18:34.160
Number two, be generous with the portions. Number three give

313
00:18:34.240 --> 00:18:38.920
the fastest friendliest service in town. Number four operate a

314
00:18:39.000 --> 00:18:44.160
lively but orderly establishment. Honest. Number five just solid business

315
00:18:44.200 --> 00:18:46.880
tips right. I know it gets better though, it gets

316
00:18:46.920 --> 00:18:51.000
more interesting. I love it. Number five have a rip

317
00:18:51.119 --> 00:18:55.039
roar in time every Saint Patrick's Day in New Year's Eve. Oh,

318
00:18:55.079 --> 00:18:59.400
shut the fuck up, I love it. Number six is

319
00:18:59.440 --> 00:19:03.079
my favorite. Okay, always sell the house liquor at half

320
00:19:03.160 --> 00:19:08.880
price on every Lucky Friday. The thirteenth shut up. Yeah,

321
00:19:09.119 --> 00:19:14.079
isn't that cute? That's adorable? And the number seven encouraged

322
00:19:14.119 --> 00:19:16.880
the customers to share the luck by offering a toast

323
00:19:16.880 --> 00:19:19.839
to good health, good cheer, prosperity for all, and a

324
00:19:19.920 --> 00:19:23.839
round of drinks with the first royal flush Ooh I

325
00:19:24.039 --> 00:19:26.799
like that. Yeah, so he was like a big gambler.

326
00:19:26.839 --> 00:19:30.279
He was a very big superstition guy. So he lived

327
00:19:30.279 --> 00:19:33.240
by these Lucky seven rules in his saloon.

328
00:19:33.559 --> 00:19:39.559
And I presume he was perhaps I mayhaps irish.

329
00:19:40.000 --> 00:19:43.119
I don't know. I don't know. Oh, okay, okay, wait,

330
00:19:43.160 --> 00:19:47.920
what's his name, Billy Gole Gohl.

331
00:19:47.160 --> 00:19:49.240
German American murderer.

332
00:19:49.519 --> 00:19:51.839
Oh, I didn't know that he was from Germany. I

333
00:19:51.880 --> 00:19:55.039
didn't know that. I just didn't put it in my notes. Huh. Well,

334
00:19:55.160 --> 00:19:57.279
I think people just like it because it's a drinking holiday,

335
00:19:57.319 --> 00:19:58.920
and he's like, let's fucking do this.

336
00:19:59.440 --> 00:20:03.039
I mean, if you're a tavern owner, having a deference

337
00:20:03.160 --> 00:20:05.920
to drinking holidays really makes sense.

338
00:20:06.680 --> 00:20:09.839
Yeah. So, I don't know, he sounds like kind of

339
00:20:09.839 --> 00:20:13.240
a cool dude. I'm not really sure. We definitely need

340
00:20:13.279 --> 00:20:15.400
Caitlin to do a deep dive on it, because that's

341
00:20:15.839 --> 00:20:17.799
definitely not to say, like you can be a cool

342
00:20:17.880 --> 00:20:21.119
dude in public and like be a fucking murderer behind

343
00:20:21.240 --> 00:20:21.880
closed doors.

344
00:20:21.960 --> 00:20:25.640
So, right, remember all of those people that were super

345
00:20:25.680 --> 00:20:29.640
shocked that that really good looking guy killed all of

346
00:20:29.680 --> 00:20:33.480
those co eds in all of the places like Colorado

347
00:20:33.720 --> 00:20:37.799
and Florida and all up and down Oregon and Washington.

348
00:20:38.160 --> 00:20:38.880
Never bundying me.

349
00:20:39.440 --> 00:20:43.359
Yeah, okay, good, I was like, didn't give enough cus.

350
00:20:43.480 --> 00:20:47.240
Do you know, I think I immediately knew when you

351
00:20:47.279 --> 00:20:51.640
said good looking, because that's like, oh my god. Thing

352
00:20:51.799 --> 00:20:55.400
about it is everyone thought that, well, not everyone, you know, like.

353
00:20:55.319 --> 00:20:58.960
I really And here's the thing. The part that really

354
00:20:59.000 --> 00:21:02.799
makes me angry about it is that I'm like, Okay,

355
00:21:02.839 --> 00:21:05.079
he's not like ugly.

356
00:21:06.319 --> 00:21:08.319
Per se. Yeah, but.

357
00:21:10.920 --> 00:21:14.519
I just I don't like, he's not so good looking

358
00:21:14.640 --> 00:21:19.279
that I just can't Oh, I just become a damns.

359
00:21:19.440 --> 00:21:23.359
I just I don't listen. And maybe I have the

360
00:21:23.400 --> 00:21:27.599
benefit of hindsight and so much experience that some people

361
00:21:27.599 --> 00:21:31.200
in the past didn't. But like, I've never I've never thought,

362
00:21:31.240 --> 00:21:35.039
oh that Batman, he's just far too good looking to

363
00:21:35.480 --> 00:21:39.920
have done all of these horrific things that other people

364
00:21:40.000 --> 00:21:44.640
are saying, like, yeah, I just I don't know, but.

365
00:21:44.720 --> 00:21:47.160
I could see like he could turn on the charms.

366
00:21:47.240 --> 00:21:49.400
So that makes you more attractive when you can know

367
00:21:49.519 --> 00:21:50.400
it funny, it.

368
00:21:50.440 --> 00:21:55.039
Does, it does it, and it makes you more when

369
00:21:55.079 --> 00:21:58.759
you're charismatic and you're attractive that way. People have a

370
00:21:58.799 --> 00:22:02.960
hard time rapping their head around somebody like that doing things.

371
00:22:02.640 --> 00:22:03.359
That are bad.

372
00:22:03.839 --> 00:22:07.799
Yeah, they do because you relate to that person and

373
00:22:07.880 --> 00:22:08.799
they're likable.

374
00:22:09.440 --> 00:22:13.279
It's fine. Just don't trust a man. Never trust, never

375
00:22:13.319 --> 00:22:16.640
meet a man. Never trust a man. I realize that,

376
00:22:16.799 --> 00:22:19.119
you know, she's happily married, but it's fine.

377
00:22:18.799 --> 00:22:24.319
Yeah, yeah, okay, but like just just the one man, okay,

378
00:22:25.160 --> 00:22:27.880
although I feel like now I feel like I have

379
00:22:27.960 --> 00:22:31.039
to caveat that because I'm like, it's okay to be polyamorous.

380
00:22:31.599 --> 00:22:35.519
So yeah, hmm, okay, you know what, we're going to

381
00:22:35.599 --> 00:22:37.920
come back. We're going to workshop it. We're going to

382
00:22:38.000 --> 00:22:40.480
come back and we're going to come up with better.

383
00:22:41.839 --> 00:22:45.519
Guidelines. Okay. I don't know the creepy people understand the intention.

384
00:22:45.720 --> 00:22:51.440
I think they're creepy. They get it. So Billy's Bar

385
00:22:51.559 --> 00:22:55.240
and Grill is reported to be haunted a lot of

386
00:22:55.279 --> 00:22:59.039
people think that Billy haunts the place, even though it's

387
00:22:59.079 --> 00:23:02.119
not actually his place. Well, I mean he's like it

388
00:23:02.319 --> 00:23:05.279
is my place. Yeah, it's named after me, Like I'm

389
00:23:05.279 --> 00:23:08.240
gonna come hang out. Hello, you put my name on it.

390
00:23:08.480 --> 00:23:14.240
So reports say he stands behind the bar just mean

391
00:23:14.359 --> 00:23:18.319
mugging everyone and not serving anyone. But I see, I

392
00:23:18.359 --> 00:23:21.279
don't know, that's not the Billy. I want to believe in. Yeah,

393
00:23:21.319 --> 00:23:23.759
I don't love that. That's not the billy with the

394
00:23:23.799 --> 00:23:25.559
lucky seven house rules.

395
00:23:26.119 --> 00:23:28.799
No, that's not a point in his column for sure.

396
00:23:29.319 --> 00:23:32.000
Yeah so that I mean, if he's a murderer, that's

397
00:23:32.119 --> 00:23:32.920
murderer billy.

398
00:23:33.839 --> 00:23:37.400
Yeah yeah, yeah, that's giving very much true crime vibes.

399
00:23:39.240 --> 00:23:41.400
But like, are people seeing that because that's what they

400
00:23:41.440 --> 00:23:46.839
think of him? You know? Yeah, patrons have felt cold spots,

401
00:23:47.000 --> 00:23:50.559
heard voices, and had their plates or glasses pushed off

402
00:23:50.559 --> 00:23:54.160
the table by unseen hands. Well that is so rude.

403
00:23:54.480 --> 00:23:57.079
And I mean they're drink glasses too, not there, not

404
00:23:57.119 --> 00:24:00.240
their eyeglasses. So yeah, keep you pushing people's boos off

405
00:24:00.240 --> 00:24:01.200
the table. That's not cool.

406
00:24:01.720 --> 00:24:04.920
I mean, don't touch my eyeglasses either, though they're way

407
00:24:04.960 --> 00:24:09.039
more expensive than the drink that I ordered, Heller, I

408
00:24:09.039 --> 00:24:11.680
have an astigmatism. Do you know how much extra that

409
00:24:11.720 --> 00:24:12.680
makes everything?

410
00:24:13.240 --> 00:24:18.000
Oh so much, so much. Sailors in early nineteen hundreds

411
00:24:18.200 --> 00:24:22.559
uniforms have sometimes been spotted visiting the bar. Are they

412
00:24:22.680 --> 00:24:29.240
spirits or just historical cosplayers? Depends if they vanished right

413
00:24:29.279 --> 00:24:30.200
before your eyes or not.

414
00:24:31.279 --> 00:24:34.640
Yeah, I feel yeah, I'm not mad at either, because

415
00:24:34.680 --> 00:24:39.160
like I feel like sometimes I want to cosplay as

416
00:24:39.240 --> 00:24:45.839
like from a different era, you know, just for the clothes.

417
00:24:45.799 --> 00:24:48.759
All the time. The clothes, Yeah, not really so much

418
00:24:48.839 --> 00:24:57.640
for the societal issues, but you know, the clothes don't

419
00:24:57.640 --> 00:24:59.559
bring any of the don't bring the nest.

420
00:25:00.319 --> 00:25:04.000
Yes, yeah, yeah, yeah, I have to tell you.

421
00:25:04.880 --> 00:25:05.079
So.

422
00:25:05.400 --> 00:25:10.160
Chris and I went to brunch yesterday and he was like, said,

423
00:25:10.160 --> 00:25:11.920
do you want to just go straight home after this?

424
00:25:12.039 --> 00:25:15.240
And I was like, well, there is this place that's

425
00:25:15.279 --> 00:25:18.960
really close to here that we could go to. It's

426
00:25:18.960 --> 00:25:19.759
called the Vault.

427
00:25:20.680 --> 00:25:21.359
And he was like.

428
00:25:21.359 --> 00:25:25.799
Okay, yeah, okay, what's that And I was like, it's

429
00:25:25.839 --> 00:25:32.400
a vintage store and that's where I bought the dress

430
00:25:32.599 --> 00:25:36.039
that I had originally planned on wearing for my wedding.

431
00:25:36.279 --> 00:25:41.319
Oh okay, And I was like, okay, you know, I

432
00:25:41.319 --> 00:25:44.319
haven't been there in a while. And I thought for

433
00:25:44.440 --> 00:25:47.400
a time when they were doing renovations in the neighborhood

434
00:25:47.440 --> 00:25:50.880
that this place was like gone forever. I didn't think

435
00:25:50.880 --> 00:25:53.759
they were coming back. So I was like, I mean,

436
00:25:53.880 --> 00:25:56.200
I just kind of want to go for old Timesya's sake,

437
00:25:56.480 --> 00:26:01.720
because it's still in the Kadie Building in Beaverton, which

438
00:26:02.160 --> 00:26:04.640
back to like I want to say eighteen ninety four,

439
00:26:05.400 --> 00:26:08.440
and it's when I wrote my thesis in my master's

440
00:26:08.480 --> 00:26:13.960
program about Wow, I know so nerdy, I want to

441
00:26:14.000 --> 00:26:17.880
hear the history. It's it's a really cool building. At

442
00:26:17.880 --> 00:26:21.000
one point it was a pharmacy. It still has apartments

443
00:26:21.480 --> 00:26:27.160
in the upper floors. Yeah, it's such a cool old building. Okay,

444
00:26:27.200 --> 00:26:29.599
So we go to the vault and I now own

445
00:26:29.799 --> 00:26:36.559
two coats that date back to we assume the nineteen seventies, wow,

446
00:26:36.640 --> 00:26:42.680
and the nineteen eighties. Okay, hopefully they're all haunted. I'm

447
00:26:42.920 --> 00:26:46.599
so excited about them. I've been needing like a new coat,

448
00:26:47.240 --> 00:26:49.440
and I wanted something that was like a little bit

449
00:26:49.519 --> 00:26:54.559
less like Columbia utilitarian. But this is reminding me. I'm like, oh,

450
00:26:54.559 --> 00:26:59.079
I just love I love history and vintage thing.

451
00:26:59.480 --> 00:27:03.319
Yeah, and I have to show them to you.

452
00:27:04.079 --> 00:27:05.880
I think we're going to have to go to Europe

453
00:27:05.960 --> 00:27:09.039
on our honeymoon now because I have so many I

454
00:27:09.039 --> 00:27:15.240
have so many classy, like ugh, very fancy coats, So

455
00:27:15.279 --> 00:27:18.440
we have to go somewhere where I can wear a.

456
00:27:18.400 --> 00:27:24.400
Coat be fancy, yeah, and be fancy. Well, I was

457
00:27:24.440 --> 00:27:27.599
thinking if they were haunted, they'd probably be pretty cool chicks.

458
00:27:27.640 --> 00:27:31.880
So, oh, my god one of both of them. I

459
00:27:32.000 --> 00:27:36.880
look like I'm a lady like Detective Noir in London

460
00:27:37.640 --> 00:27:39.720
love It or Edinburgh.

461
00:27:40.119 --> 00:27:42.920
I can't wait. Okay, So let's talk a little bit

462
00:27:42.960 --> 00:27:45.640
about the building that the Bar and Billy's Bar and

463
00:27:45.680 --> 00:27:49.160
Grill is in, because it's been around a minute, okay,

464
00:27:49.319 --> 00:27:51.960
and it has its own history that may lend itself

465
00:27:52.000 --> 00:27:56.880
to hauntings. The Crowther Wooding building was built in nineteen

466
00:27:56.880 --> 00:27:59.640
oh four and it's been home to a few different

467
00:27:59.640 --> 00:28:04.839
business a pharmacy. I feel like, like so many old

468
00:28:04.839 --> 00:28:08.160
buildings were pharmacies. But that's why full that you mentioned

469
00:28:08.160 --> 00:28:10.440
that and you didn't even know that it was coming. No,

470
00:28:10.519 --> 00:28:11.720
I had no idea.

471
00:28:11.880 --> 00:28:16.319
I just I'm really excited about my coats, yeah, and

472
00:28:16.359 --> 00:28:16.640
that I.

473
00:28:16.599 --> 00:28:19.200
Got to visit. So it was a pharmacy, it was

474
00:28:19.240 --> 00:28:23.599
a drug store, it was a couple different taverns, and

475
00:28:23.680 --> 00:28:28.519
by the fifties it was a brothel upstairs and they

476
00:28:28.519 --> 00:28:32.200
were known as the Elnora Room. Ell No, it says

477
00:28:32.240 --> 00:28:34.799
el Nora on their website, and like all of the

478
00:28:34.920 --> 00:28:38.160
articles change it to Eleanora. But I their website say

479
00:28:38.160 --> 00:28:40.759
is el Nora. So that's what I'm gonna go with, Okay.

480
00:28:41.119 --> 00:28:44.519
They were known as the El Nora Rooms after the madame.

481
00:28:44.759 --> 00:28:48.400
The madam. I always say madame, but like madame is

482
00:28:48.480 --> 00:28:51.039
like a fancy person and a madam is like a

483
00:28:51.160 --> 00:28:56.119
woman pimp. Yeah. Yeah. It is said that a bullet

484
00:28:56.160 --> 00:28:59.559
hole still remains in the wall from a lady of

485
00:28:59.599 --> 00:29:04.279
the night who shot her pimp. So I'm like, I

486
00:29:04.319 --> 00:29:06.960
made this whole story in my head because I'm like, well,

487
00:29:07.079 --> 00:29:09.319
there wasn't a pimp, there, there was a madam. So

488
00:29:09.440 --> 00:29:11.319
like this other lady of the night was trying to

489
00:29:11.400 --> 00:29:13.960
leave her pimp and he got pissed so she didn't

490
00:29:13.960 --> 00:29:18.240
shoot him intrigue. Don't know if that's true, but that's

491
00:29:18.279 --> 00:29:20.160
just the scenario I came back with in my head. No,

492
00:29:20.319 --> 00:29:20.799
I like it.

493
00:29:20.839 --> 00:29:24.480
I like where your head went there, because yeah, I mean.

494
00:29:24.839 --> 00:29:26.960
He didn't like where his head went. Apparently he died

495
00:29:27.000 --> 00:29:29.319
on the toilet, like she shot him through the bathroom

496
00:29:29.440 --> 00:29:32.680
and like he died on the toilet. Oh no, but not.

497
00:29:32.759 --> 00:29:34.720
I don't know if he deserved it. I don't know.

498
00:29:35.039 --> 00:29:39.640
I'm just saying, well, I'm just saying, if you're you know,

499
00:29:40.400 --> 00:29:45.480
if you're essentially enslaving people in the sex trade.

500
00:29:45.079 --> 00:29:48.720
Yeah, not good. And people have reported seeing the ghost

501
00:29:48.839 --> 00:29:52.440
of sex workers of the time there roam in the halls,

502
00:29:52.599 --> 00:29:55.920
maybe still looking for a little extra cash, trying to

503
00:29:55.920 --> 00:29:59.759
make their way in this world. Girl getting so much

504
00:30:01.200 --> 00:30:06.200
stack that paper. We're only judging if someone's forcing you

505
00:30:06.200 --> 00:30:07.920
into it, and then we're judging a person, not you.

506
00:30:08.400 --> 00:30:14.799
Yeah, we're judging the exploitative nature of the thing, not

507
00:30:15.119 --> 00:30:19.559
the person who is being victimized by a system of

508
00:30:20.279 --> 00:30:25.519
you know, basically the design of patriarchy and misogyny.

509
00:30:24.960 --> 00:30:30.799
And how to shoot her way out like literally, oh gosh, Yeah,

510
00:30:31.279 --> 00:30:34.279
this brings us to another lady, not a lady of

511
00:30:34.279 --> 00:30:37.759
the night, but a lady of the sea, The Lady

512
00:30:38.079 --> 00:30:42.960
Washington in nineteen eighty nine, replica of the first American

513
00:30:43.039 --> 00:30:48.599
vessel to land in the Nasty PNW in seventeen eighty eight.

514
00:30:48.720 --> 00:30:51.880
So it's not the original seventy seventeen eighty eight ship.

515
00:30:52.079 --> 00:30:54.519
It's a replica of it, but still pretty yet.

516
00:30:55.559 --> 00:30:59.279
I was honestly way cooler than what I was imagining.

517
00:30:59.319 --> 00:31:02.519
I was like, is that like the Starbucks Mermaid? Or

518
00:31:05.160 --> 00:31:07.000
it does have a late like one of what do

519
00:31:07.039 --> 00:31:09.599
they call it? Oh, it's a figurehead? I was like,

520
00:31:09.640 --> 00:31:11.799
I know, it has like some sort of name.

521
00:31:12.799 --> 00:31:14.839
Okay, so I didn't add this, and I was about to,

522
00:31:14.960 --> 00:31:18.200
but it says the figurehead of Lady Washington was carved

523
00:31:18.200 --> 00:31:24.559
by Bob McCausland, a former cartoonist for the Seattle Post. Oh,

524
00:31:24.599 --> 00:31:26.160
which I thought that was kind of cool, but I didn't.

525
00:31:26.680 --> 00:31:28.880
You don't need all the fun facts. But since you

526
00:31:29.000 --> 00:31:32.400
bring it up, I mean, but yeah, so you saw

527
00:31:32.440 --> 00:31:34.920
a picture of her. She doesn't look like a mermaid

528
00:31:35.000 --> 00:31:36.359
or anything. She just looks like a woman.

529
00:31:36.440 --> 00:31:39.640
Oh no, she looks like a colonial woman.

530
00:31:40.119 --> 00:31:46.039
Yeah, yeah, yeah, which fits fits the times. The original

531
00:31:46.079 --> 00:31:49.519
ship was captained by Robert Gray, which is why it's

532
00:31:49.559 --> 00:31:54.359
named grays Harbor, not after Gray's anatomy. Okay, because you

533
00:31:54.400 --> 00:31:57.440
know this one was first anyway you got ever, Lady

534
00:31:57.599 --> 00:32:01.559
Washington is kind of a fan Miss Broad the replica.

535
00:32:01.880 --> 00:32:05.839
We're back to the replica. Okay. So she's been featured

536
00:32:06.319 --> 00:32:11.119
in Star Trek Generations Once upon a Time, which I

537
00:32:11.160 --> 00:32:15.920
was like, I loved that show, and even Pirates of

538
00:32:15.960 --> 00:32:16.559
the Caribbean.

539
00:32:17.519 --> 00:32:20.200
I was gonna say, the first thing that came up

540
00:32:20.319 --> 00:32:21.759
was Pirates at the Caribbean.

541
00:32:22.440 --> 00:32:25.720
Oh see ruined it. No, I'm just kidding, but it

542
00:32:25.759 --> 00:32:27.839
is that cool. I was like, didn't even think about that,

543
00:32:27.960 --> 00:32:29.839
and I was like, oh, very cool. I love this.

544
00:32:30.839 --> 00:32:33.400
And another I think it was a movie revolution. I

545
00:32:33.400 --> 00:32:36.759
don't know what that was, so I deleted it, but

546
00:32:37.119 --> 00:32:39.880
it was in that if you guys know what that is. Yeah.

547
00:32:39.960 --> 00:32:43.559
Although the crew does not have any paranormal experiences to report,

548
00:32:43.960 --> 00:32:48.240
it is believed that its presence in historical seaports attracts

549
00:32:48.319 --> 00:32:53.079
spirits of long dead sailors invoking their love of the sea.

550
00:32:53.440 --> 00:32:56.359
I mean, doesn't that kind of track Yeah.

551
00:32:56.200 --> 00:32:59.000
I think so it like comes in now to report

552
00:32:59.640 --> 00:33:03.200
rawls up all the old sailor spirits get some going,

553
00:33:03.519 --> 00:33:07.680
the old sea dogs gets the people going. Yeah, I

554
00:33:07.799 --> 00:33:11.799
get some people going. I do like love that image

555
00:33:11.880 --> 00:33:15.960
of just like them getting all excited for like, oh look,

556
00:33:16.000 --> 00:33:18.400
this is from our time because they see all this

557
00:33:18.559 --> 00:33:20.279
other crap that they don't even know what it is,

558
00:33:20.359 --> 00:33:22.359
and they see this old sami ship and they.

559
00:33:22.319 --> 00:33:26.799
Just get stop, like they're seeing cruise ships and stuff.

560
00:33:28.440 --> 00:33:32.720
Is that yacht? Bullshit? Where are my sails and masks?

561
00:33:32.759 --> 00:33:36.519
And right, okay, we have one last thing to talk about.

562
00:33:36.799 --> 00:33:39.119
It's super fast and I just had to throw it

563
00:33:39.160 --> 00:33:43.640
in there because I just love cemeteries of course. So

564
00:33:43.720 --> 00:33:46.799
there's an old cemetery in the area. It's called John's

565
00:33:46.880 --> 00:33:51.160
River Pioneer Cemetery, and it was once only accessible by

566
00:33:51.279 --> 00:33:55.200
boat during high tide. What they had to go on

567
00:33:55.359 --> 00:33:58.599
high tide and like bury or morn or do visit

568
00:33:58.640 --> 00:34:00.799
whatever they were going to do, and then wait for

569
00:34:00.880 --> 00:34:04.160
the tide to get high tied again and then go back.

570
00:34:04.680 --> 00:34:08.239
Isn't that crazy? Wow? Nowadays you can get there by

571
00:34:08.280 --> 00:34:10.280
a two mile hike, so it's a little bit more

572
00:34:10.320 --> 00:34:11.760
accessible if you want to hike.

573
00:34:12.119 --> 00:34:16.639
Honestly, it sounds peaceful though, because who is dealing with

574
00:34:16.679 --> 00:34:19.719
all of those shenanigans.

575
00:34:18.880 --> 00:34:21.599
Right, I know? And it was only I think they

576
00:34:21.679 --> 00:34:24.719
said about like twenty graves are there. It's all overgrown

577
00:34:24.840 --> 00:34:28.400
and it's not kept up anymore. It's from the early

578
00:34:28.440 --> 00:34:33.360
eighteen hundred. So wow. There was a blog or an

579
00:34:33.480 --> 00:34:35.840
article or something with a bunch of pictures of someone

580
00:34:35.840 --> 00:34:39.639
who went there, and it does look very peaceful, nice

581
00:34:39.639 --> 00:34:42.840
little hike and views if that's what you're into, which

582
00:34:42.880 --> 00:34:45.039
I would be into, but we're not going to go

583
00:34:45.119 --> 00:34:50.639
hiking for a minute. Yeah. Yeah, the fast time I

584
00:34:50.679 --> 00:34:55.519
broke my ankle, it's fine. Yeah, Wow, I don't think

585
00:34:55.519 --> 00:34:58.800
I have a deck that would be any better than

586
00:34:58.800 --> 00:35:02.639
the P ANDW deck if you wouldn't mind, because I

587
00:35:02.679 --> 00:35:04.400
think that would be a really good duck for this one.

588
00:35:04.599 --> 00:35:08.519
Thank you, Thanks for Dean may work for me. I

589
00:35:08.719 --> 00:35:09.360
do one more?

590
00:35:09.440 --> 00:35:13.480
Okay, all right, I'm gonna keep that one in mind.

591
00:35:14.360 --> 00:35:17.719
Ooh, one pop it out? The one that tried to

592
00:35:17.840 --> 00:35:23.639
jump out. Ooh, it's water. Yeah.

593
00:35:23.679 --> 00:35:28.440
So if our reading feels not quite right, well now

594
00:35:29.599 --> 00:35:34.119
okay I read. So I'm making the arch.

595
00:35:35.920 --> 00:35:37.599
Are you gonna finger it again? And I'll tell you

596
00:35:37.679 --> 00:35:42.920
want to stop? Yeah? Okay, tell me when you start. Oh,

597
00:35:43.039 --> 00:35:51.960
I'm starting. Okay, Oh stop right? No? Is it the

598
00:35:52.000 --> 00:35:58.760
same card? No? Bye? Oh okay, that's so funny. What

599
00:35:58.800 --> 00:36:03.039
was the other one? The yeah? Okay, I'm like for

600
00:36:03.079 --> 00:36:05.679
people who can't see she one popped out? That was

601
00:36:05.920 --> 00:36:10.360
uh was it dolphins in the ocean or something? Uh,

602
00:36:10.400 --> 00:36:12.159
I'm not sure.

603
00:36:12.280 --> 00:36:17.960
I'll have to let me flip the deck so I can. Oh, okay,

604
00:36:18.000 --> 00:36:21.840
it's still on the bottom. It was the chariot. These

605
00:36:21.920 --> 00:36:28.000
look like gray whales. I still tried to flip out

606
00:36:28.119 --> 00:36:29.639
gray gray whales.

607
00:36:31.119 --> 00:36:33.320
Dude, I feel like we're meant to pull that one too,

608
00:36:33.920 --> 00:36:35.159
maybe Grace.

609
00:36:35.079 --> 00:36:40.519
Harbor just saying, but we pulled the Queen of Cups

610
00:36:41.079 --> 00:36:44.960
and I literally turned like perfectly to the exact page.

611
00:36:45.039 --> 00:36:55.039
So our keywords are creativity, fertility, strong emotion, change, and intuition.

612
00:36:56.519 --> 00:36:58.679
I mean, I feel like that makes sense to me

613
00:36:58.800 --> 00:37:03.960
for the Billy's Bar and Grill with the brothel, is it? Yeah,

614
00:37:04.000 --> 00:37:07.599
just because the Queen, the Madam, the I don't know,

615
00:37:07.639 --> 00:37:10.960
all of those things kind of fit for me. Oh

616
00:37:11.480 --> 00:37:14.280
you know what, I wouldn't have thought of that. I

617
00:37:14.320 --> 00:37:18.519
guess the ship too. Yeah, what were you thinking about?

618
00:37:19.960 --> 00:37:22.519
Well, as per usual, I'm kind of focused on the

619
00:37:22.559 --> 00:37:23.119
true crime.

620
00:37:23.679 --> 00:37:33.719
Oh so yeah, okay, the upright Queen represents deep emotions,

621
00:37:34.039 --> 00:37:35.800
compassion and caring.

622
00:37:36.599 --> 00:37:40.719
When she comes up, you're experiencing strong emotions about someone

623
00:37:40.960 --> 00:37:44.440
or something. She can also urge you to use your

624
00:37:44.480 --> 00:37:47.559
intuition or express your creativity.

625
00:37:48.920 --> 00:37:51.360
That totally reminds me of the ship because they had

626
00:37:51.400 --> 00:37:54.239
like a bunch of historians go into how they actually

627
00:37:54.280 --> 00:37:57.480
built the original ship and built it like in the

628
00:37:57.519 --> 00:38:03.679
same way and made sure everything was exactly right. Oh interesting, Yeah,

629
00:38:04.039 --> 00:38:04.760
that's pretty cool.

630
00:38:05.239 --> 00:38:14.519
Okay, all right, let's see if this card signifies a

631
00:38:14.559 --> 00:38:19.800
real person She's nurturing and generous, ruled by her heart

632
00:38:20.199 --> 00:38:24.920
not her head. She's changeable and sometimes unreliable. Okay, here

633
00:38:24.920 --> 00:38:29.320
we go, extra exerpt before the three bullets.

634
00:38:29.519 --> 00:38:30.760
Okay, okay.

635
00:38:31.519 --> 00:38:34.199
The Queen of Cups is like a body of water,

636
00:38:35.280 --> 00:38:39.840
ever flowing onward as she brings inspiration and feeling.

637
00:38:39.519 --> 00:38:42.280
To the world. Oh.

638
00:38:42.719 --> 00:38:47.239
She may sometimes seem as immutable as the sea itself.

639
00:38:48.079 --> 00:38:50.119
She is ever true to her heart.

640
00:38:50.719 --> 00:38:53.960
That is so cool that we got something that specifically

641
00:38:54.039 --> 00:38:58.320
like mentions the sea it does Okay.

642
00:38:58.800 --> 00:39:01.760
In a reading about money, the Queen can mean earning

643
00:39:01.840 --> 00:39:06.480
money from a creative activity. Often she recommends being flexible

644
00:39:06.519 --> 00:39:10.400
and willing to make changes. Use your intuition as well

645
00:39:10.440 --> 00:39:13.800
as your intellect in financial matters.

646
00:39:14.320 --> 00:39:17.079
Okay, that could be a Lady of the Night. Yeah,

647
00:39:17.280 --> 00:39:20.920
it could be. You gotta be flexible, you gotta use

648
00:39:20.960 --> 00:39:24.599
your intuition. You know the bad guys from the Yeah,

649
00:39:24.800 --> 00:39:27.440
well seriously, maybe good guys. I don't know.

650
00:39:29.079 --> 00:39:31.480
If the reading is about your job, this can be

651
00:39:31.519 --> 00:39:35.320
a creative and inspired time for you to be happy.

652
00:39:35.480 --> 00:39:38.639
You need to be able to use your imagination in

653
00:39:38.679 --> 00:39:43.880
your job. Sometimes the Queen shows an unrealistic attitude about work,

654
00:39:44.039 --> 00:39:47.559
or a desire to be taken care of rather than working.

655
00:39:47.840 --> 00:39:52.480
Ladies of the night. Yeah, I was gonna say, that's

656
00:39:52.480 --> 00:39:54.280
all I could think of. I don't know, honestly.

657
00:39:54.920 --> 00:40:00.239
Honestly, in a reading about love, the upright Queen represents

658
00:40:00.280 --> 00:40:07.239
a deeply romantic, sensual, and emotional relationship. You open yourself

659
00:40:07.280 --> 00:40:09.960
to a partner and lavish him or her with love.

660
00:40:11.199 --> 00:40:18.320
Sometimes the queen advises you to be more discriminating. Yeah,

661
00:40:18.360 --> 00:40:21.800
this is a fortunate card if you want to have children.

662
00:40:22.360 --> 00:40:24.960
Oh, I don't know about that. Well, there was a

663
00:40:25.039 --> 00:40:30.360
child ghost, so I mean, yeah, I mean there's that. Yeah,

664
00:40:30.559 --> 00:40:33.480
But that last part you read does remind me of

665
00:40:33.519 --> 00:40:36.400
what I said about, like the ship coming into old

666
00:40:36.480 --> 00:40:40.840
ports and attracting spirits of long dead sailors invoking their

667
00:40:40.880 --> 00:40:43.440
love of the sea. So it's kind of like you're

668
00:40:43.480 --> 00:40:46.039
in love with the sea, but this music dangerous that

669
00:40:46.119 --> 00:40:48.880
it might kill you. That's what it reminded me of.

670
00:40:50.039 --> 00:40:53.079
All right. So the other card is the chariot.

671
00:40:53.840 --> 00:40:59.920
It is number seven in the major Arkana keywords are controlling,

672
00:41:00.119 --> 00:41:09.440
opposing forces, willpower, resolving, conflict, and travel. I mean travel, Yeah,

673
00:41:09.880 --> 00:41:17.280
the ships, the sailors, Yeah, upright, the chariot symbolizes taking

674
00:41:17.360 --> 00:41:23.440
control of competing forces, whether these are inner conflicts, people,

675
00:41:23.679 --> 00:41:27.119
or a situation in your life, in order to reach your.

676
00:41:27.000 --> 00:41:34.079
Goals goal billy goal goal. Oh god, And he was

677
00:41:34.119 --> 00:41:37.559
apparently like fighting for all these he was a fighting

678
00:41:37.639 --> 00:41:40.280
the opposing forces to try to get you know, labor

679
00:41:40.360 --> 00:41:41.480
rights for the sailors.

680
00:41:42.320 --> 00:41:46.480
Kind of true, right, and then also potentially maybe possibly

681
00:41:46.719 --> 00:41:52.119
murdering murdering of the sailors. You're being carried towards your

682
00:41:52.239 --> 00:41:57.119
destination as quickly as possible. Wow, which makes me think

683
00:41:57.159 --> 00:42:02.440
of a current Yeah, for what it's worth, whatever the task,

684
00:42:02.800 --> 00:42:07.079
you can handle it. You're keeping up with the changes

685
00:42:07.159 --> 00:42:11.599
that are happening at your job, in a relationship, or

686
00:42:11.679 --> 00:42:16.400
in some type of community or worldly involvement.

687
00:42:17.480 --> 00:42:20.840
Wow. What just makes me wonder, like if he was

688
00:42:20.960 --> 00:42:24.239
really this good person, what would have happened? Like would

689
00:42:24.280 --> 00:42:28.159
the sailors have been even more safe if he wasn't convicted?

690
00:42:29.360 --> 00:42:29.599
Oh?

691
00:42:29.920 --> 00:42:33.719
I mean maybe we don't know. Caitlyn's got a deep

692
00:42:33.719 --> 00:42:35.920
dive on and figure it out for us. I don't

693
00:42:36.559 --> 00:42:37.159
no pressure.

694
00:42:37.280 --> 00:42:41.119
Right In reading about money, this card says you can't

695
00:42:41.199 --> 00:42:44.079
rush things. All you can do is hold on to

696
00:42:44.199 --> 00:42:47.639
the reins and guide the situation, using your willpower and

697
00:42:47.760 --> 00:42:51.760
mastery to be to bring a financial matter to a

698
00:42:51.800 --> 00:42:56.679
successful conclusion. If the reading is about your job, the

699
00:42:56.800 --> 00:43:03.199
Chariot reminds you that to succeed you need self mastery.

700
00:43:03.280 --> 00:43:06.599
You possess the means to triumph over your obstacles and

701
00:43:06.639 --> 00:43:12.360
stay the course you've set for yourself. You're holding things together,

702
00:43:12.480 --> 00:43:18.239
successfully uniting opposing forces to stay on track. However, you

703
00:43:18.360 --> 00:43:24.320
may be required to make frequent adjustments to continue going

704
00:43:24.400 --> 00:43:28.400
in the right direction. In a reading about love, this

705
00:43:28.519 --> 00:43:33.360
card recommends spending time in self development rather than chasing

706
00:43:33.400 --> 00:43:37.480
after love. This may not be the right time to

707
00:43:37.559 --> 00:43:42.840
start a romance if you're in a relationship already. You

708
00:43:42.880 --> 00:43:46.519
may need to take control of conflicting feelings or attitudes

709
00:43:47.159 --> 00:43:53.039
to bring about harmony. And I would say, honestly, if

710
00:43:53.079 --> 00:43:55.480
nothing else, this makes me think of.

711
00:43:57.159 --> 00:44:01.079
The brothel as well, Like I think, Yeah, a lot.

712
00:44:00.920 --> 00:44:04.800
Of times people report it being very difficult to have

713
00:44:04.960 --> 00:44:09.119
romantic relationships when they are engaged in sex work.

714
00:44:10.199 --> 00:44:13.800
Yeah, because men are a little possessive. Yeah.

715
00:44:13.880 --> 00:44:15.960
I mean, I don't know if there's any other tie ins,

716
00:44:16.000 --> 00:44:18.960
but that was kind of my initial thought.

717
00:44:19.880 --> 00:44:23.039
Yeah, I don't know. It made me think of kind

718
00:44:23.039 --> 00:44:25.039
of that same thing where it's like love of the

719
00:44:25.119 --> 00:44:29.880
sea or like Billy's possible love of trying to help people,

720
00:44:29.960 --> 00:44:34.159
but like it ultimately could kill you or not turn

721
00:44:34.199 --> 00:44:37.559
out well. You know. Yeah, I mean there's that doesn't

722
00:44:37.599 --> 00:44:42.840
mean you shouldn't try. You should always try to help people.

723
00:44:43.440 --> 00:44:46.519
It is a nice thing to do, fight for people's

724
00:44:46.639 --> 00:44:48.800
rights who can't do it themselves.

725
00:44:50.119 --> 00:44:52.159
Wow, you're standing mouthful there, sister.

726
00:44:52.400 --> 00:44:59.159
Yeah, I know, Yeah, Yeah, that was cool. I really

727
00:44:59.280 --> 00:45:02.159
liked that they just both had the sea on them.

728
00:45:02.320 --> 00:45:07.320
And I mean, is it just whales on that other card?

729
00:45:07.719 --> 00:45:09.840
I can't see. I can't tell if what that big

730
00:45:09.920 --> 00:45:10.320
thing is.

731
00:45:10.519 --> 00:45:15.079
It looks like it. I cannot reach the little book.

732
00:45:15.320 --> 00:45:17.360
Okay, I couldn't tell if it was a ship or

733
00:45:17.400 --> 00:45:19.960
something like, of course it was a ship.

734
00:45:20.719 --> 00:45:23.559
No, I'm pretty I'm pretty sure we've gotten this card

735
00:45:23.599 --> 00:45:26.199
at some point, and I'm pretty sure these are all

736
00:45:26.280 --> 00:45:26.920
gray whales.

737
00:45:28.440 --> 00:45:30.320
Yeah so to me, and you're holding it up, it

738
00:45:30.360 --> 00:45:32.280
looks like the bottom of a ship with like a

739
00:45:32.280 --> 00:45:34.679
bunch of whales swimming under it. Is what it looks like? Yeah,

740
00:45:34.719 --> 00:45:40.400
it kind of does. Yeah, creepy day We'll see you

741
00:45:40.440 --> 00:45:45.880
next Thursday Day. Someday Cassie will be back in the studio,

742
00:45:45.960 --> 00:45:47.280
I promised. I know.

743
00:45:47.920 --> 00:45:51.480
Well we've it's been a lot. We'll tell you about

744
00:45:51.519 --> 00:45:52.159
it sometime.

745
00:45:53.559 --> 00:46:00.639
Oh the love of the spoon, I love it. Ee,

746
00:46:01.320 --> 00:46:04.039
let's cut that out. When I did that? Remember when

747
00:46:04.039 --> 00:46:07.400
I did that. Let's boss a got in. I remember

748
00:46:07.440 --> 00:46:11.800
when I did that. I am losing it, okay,
