"Their children. He has a harem of 9. Police say that one of the harem ladies. Lord the child to their home under the guise of introducing her to a real-life fortune teller. But instead, when she got there, shocking in Shibuya showed the child images of aliens over the course of several hours and told her that the aliens wanted her to enter into a relationship with them, and if she did not agree, she would be abducted, abducted. The girl believed the couple and told them I'm coming back. I will be back to join this harem. But the kid did another thing, she told her friends and family that she would be leaving home because the aliens wanted her to live with here he took Shibuya. And that is when family and friends were like, yeah, no, and they called the police. And the police came and arrested him and have charged him. And now he and the one ex-wife are in jail and the rest of the harem is being investigated. So he has a long criminal track record with law enforcement in Japan. He told one interview or this is not his first rodeo with getting in trouble with the law, although this is the first time it's with an underage girl. He said, I had a dream. And in that dream, I became aware that I would become popular with women if I made certain incantations. Women began to gather at my home when I was fortune telling. And now I live with women in a polygamist commune. And the women range in age from 20 to 49 in his harem, and he's apparently not really a fortune teller. If you can even say that you can really be a fortune color, he's not even like really like a half baked somewhat legitimate fortune teller. It's just a lie that he uses. So I thought about this for a while. I thought about him saying that he had a dream and in this dream he knew that if he told women he was a fortune teller that they would come and live with him. I would not. That would not work on me. And I believe, you know, I believe in all kinds of stuff. If a man says to me, I'm a fortune teller. I'm thinking to myself, you know, okay, whatever. That man would have to say to me, I'm a trained chef. And I have a borderline obsession with folding laundry for me to even consider moving into his polygamous hair on commune. I have a dream. I have a dream, too. You don't want my dream is? My dream is to produce a TV show all about him because I would become a billionaire. Women would hate, you know what they do? They would hate watch him. Every single week. They would hate watch. If this story with the aliens sounds a little bit familiar, it's because there was a Netflix documentary that came out a couple of years ago called abducted in plain sight. And it told the story of a 12 year old girl named Jan berk told, and her family and how a trusted and beloved family friend abducted Chan and had her convinced that the aliens had singled her out to have a child with him to save their planet. He had an affair with her mother. He had an encounter, a sexual encounter with her father, it was when it aired on Netflix. One of the craziest things I'd ever seen, and it all took place in Pocatello, Idaho, not too far from where I lived as a kid out west. So after I watched abducted in plain sight, back in 2020, I emailed John Burke told who's all grown up today, and I said, I would I would love to interview you. I grew up not too far from where you grew up. My mom is LDS. I'm a social worker, like your mom became a social worker, and I would be very respectful. And I feel like, you know, we have a lot in common. And I never heard a word until last week, when she really on Twitter and said, I would love to do an interview with you. Yeah. So I've reached out to her and we're going to see what we can set up. But yes, the old aliens want you to be my lady. Shibuya are not the first pervert. To roll that one out. Sherry, because I know someone will email you. Her last name is broberg. I'm sorry, broberg berk told was the offender. I'm so sorry, max, you're right. Thank you. Jan broberg, and she and her mom co wrote a book. Which is which I've read. It's absolutely fascinating. Burke told was the offender who abducted her not once but twice. And he's dead now. He's gone. So we don't even really get, he committed suicide. We don't even really get much justice for that family with him. Yeah, it's an incredible story. We'll post this up. On the bob and cherry Facebook. And very good. You get the interview. And you can put it in a podcast. That sounds great. I would love it. Folks, I'm just going to say, if the aliens are talking to you, that's one thing. But if some dude is talking to you about the aliens, go ahead and plant the pervert flag on that because that seems to be what it always is. It's bobbing chairs. Bob and sherry books swag and the mother of all mothers merch. Just hit shot at bob and sherry dot com. Somebody sent me a shot of a restaurant's menu and this restaurant, I don't know the name of it. They just showed some of the food. Everything possible is on this menu. There's Mexican food. There's American cheeseburgers. They even have sushi, but down in the corner is what really got my attention. You know how, in some menus, they'll have like a little name for one of the entrees, like reds steak, or Tommy's cheeseburger. You know, there's some sort of a name that they have. Well, this restaurant has named the kids meals. And here we go. You can order the I don't care. That's chicken tenders, fries for $8. You can order the whatever. That's a cheeseburger slider and fries. You can also order the heavy size slash eye roll that's a cheese pizza flatbread, or you might be tempted to get your kid the I'm not hungry, which is the Mac and cheese and fruit cup. And then finally, there's the can we go for chicken wings and barbecue ranch. And fries. It's perfect. I think if you could get a pill and give to a person between the ages of 12 and 19 and it stopped them from being moody, I think it would be the third most popular pill ever created. Right behind the weight loss pill that's out now and ED medications. If you had a non cranky pill for kids, parents would love it. I want to do this at my house so that when I say to my husband, what do you feel like having for dinner? If he replies, I don't live to eat. I eat to live. Sounds like eggplant to me. There

Author Lee Strobel on What Near-Death Experiences Tell Us
"What is in this book, the case for heaven? This is your discussions with people who have seen who have experienced these kinds of things. Yeah, I interviewed neuroscientists, for instance, and others on the question of what a near death experience is really tell us. Because I was a skeptic about this. I thought no wait, they're just hallucinations. That's just oxygen. Even as a Christian, you were a skeptic of that stuff. I didn't think that the science supported. I thought, okay, I can't believe what the Bible says, but certainly near death experiences are just mythology and make believe in wishful thinking. But what I learned was that there have been 900 scientific articles written about near death experiences over the last 40 years and published in scientific and medical journals. This is a very well researched area of science. In fact, the lancet, which is the famous medical journal in England, did an article that said that when you look at all of the alternative explanations for near death experiences, oh, it's oxygen deprivation. So none of those explanations explain what actually takes place. And then I interviewed John Burke for my book. John Burke is a Christian pastor in Austin, Texas. He has studied a thousand near death experiences over 35 years. And his conclusion, which was radical to me, is that when you look at the core of what happens in these near death experiences, yes, there are some differences. But look at the core of what actually takes place. Don't look at how people interpret it, but look what actually occurs, it is consistent with Christian theology. That was very important to me. And you mentioned the word corroboration, and I'm with you. I mean, you know, when somebody tells me, oh, I died and I met Jesus and these 5 foot ten is brown eyes. I may go, okay, well, I can't corroborate that. But when we have a study that was done of 21 blind people, most of them blind since birth, who, during their near death experiences, could see for the first

"Anymore. Then I realized I had to get a real attorney. So I go upstairs and I'm on the tenth floor and Willie falcones there on the tenth floor. And he says, listen buddy. He didn't even know about how much cocaine they had seized from me or anything. He didn't know he just knew what was a code case. And Willie falcon. Recommended one of his attorneys John Bergen Dow. He's a very good attorney. And I met with John Burke. Folks make the connection Lewis. Tell everybody who Willie falcone is. Willie falcone is the man they did that Netflix commentary on the game on Netflix just recently, one of the biggest cocaine importers in U.S. history. Him in Salma gluta. The cocaine cowboys. The coking cowboys. And Netflix did a thing on them. And Sal got a 195 years. He's at the ADX in Colorado. Willie got 20 years. I think they mixed all up in some murders and Willie wasn't part of that. So. But. I was fortunate enough to be on the same floor with Willie and he recommended John Bergen Dow. I meet John Bergen Dolly and he reads it. He says, listen, yeah, you're totally screwed here. There's not much I can do. If I take it to trial, they're going to fry you. I know for a fact there's ten or 12 guys in the system that are willing to cooperate and testify against you. They've got merchandise that seized. This is not a conspiracy. This is actually seized the merchandise. And if they charge you with a second indictment that includes 25 tons, you are dead. You are dead. I mean, I do not suggest you take this to trial. This is coming from a guy who's going to charge me three, $400,000 just to get going. And, you know, he was very honest. He says, I suggest you cut a you don't take it for trial. So then I called a couple other attorneys and then finally called Reuben oliva. And although he's Cuban and I never wanted to deal with Cuban lawyers, he was amazing. And he spoke to me straight. He says, you know, I told him ruin, but this is impossible. How can they want to give me life if I've never killed anybody? Says you don't understand. You don't have to kill somebody. The amount of cocaine involved and your leadership rule. This goes by guidelines. And you're up to life. So I said, wow. Why don't you tell him this? Tell him that just let me keep some of the money and let and I'll do ten years. I'll do ten years. I don't think you're in a position to negotiate at this point. Because I thought ten years is a lot of time. And he's a lowest lowest Lewis. Wait a minute. You don't understand. You may do ten years. But you may do ten years when you give them everything, and you tell them everything and you're completely debriefed. And you are the best outstanding citizen in the VLP..

"He's the vice president of poet advocacies from Michigan. So we forgive him that but he won a big case last week. It's huge case last week, John, Welcome back. How are you doing? Great. Here. Thanks for having us Now I wrote a Washington Post column about how the Fulton case is a huge win 90 for religious Liberty. Will you tell people what the holding it and what the opinions telegraph going forward? It's unusual to see a unanimous Supreme Court opinion, especially in the area of religious liberty, but this one deserves it. This involved Catholic social services and their foster agency. In the city of Philadelphia. They did a great job serving kids and in a city that needs placements for thousands of kids who don't have homes right now, their support was critically important, and the city of Philadelphia terminated them as a provider, as well as any other religious provider. Held the view that marriage was between men and one woman and the U. S. Supreme Court rebuked the city of Philadelphia and said that terminating Catholic social services was unconstitutional and a violation of the free exercise clause. What they did is they put kids first, because every child in need of a forever home deserves the chance to be adopted or cared for by a foster family and allowing faith based adoption and foster care agencies to operate in the city will certainly do that. John, you've argued 12 Supreme Court cases. You know how hard it is to get an I know I have been analyzing the chief justice's majority opinion. Some conservatives are grinding their teeth as I point out in the Washington Post because they wanted Smith overruled. I want Smith overruled as well. It's clear to me it's going to be overruled. They just have to work through. The case on which to overrule it, and the tests that they replace it with justices Barrett and cabin I'm joined by Breyer pretty much telegraphed that do you read it the same way I do. I do read it exactly the same way. At least five justices said that Smith has to be overruled. And it should, because Smith is an opinion that takes the teeth out of the free exercise clause. Says that so long as you have a lot, which is neutral and generally applicable that it can infringe on religious liberty, which we all understand, can't possibly be right. But I do think it's going to take the right case, and it's going to take a little work from Those who fight these types of litigation matters to ensure that there is a test that the justices a comfortable with, but I'm confident that we can get there I am also now I'm reading the mind of a guy I've known for a long time. And I'm not friends with the chief justice. I'm friendly with him, So I see him occasionally, but anymore, of course talk cases with him, But I remember I worked with him in the White House years ago. I think he wanted nine or more than he wanted Smith to be jettison. He wanted a 90 message to the country and especially to the administrative state. If they have an exemption, power at all that is going to go by the wayside We're done with Trinity Lutherans were done with playgrounds that can't be subsidized by the state. If they're a Catholic school or Lutheran school, we're done with everything that carves out an exception that does not apply to religion. So, John, I think it's actually kind of sweeping. And if you don't get the message now, you've got to be deaf, dumb, blind, mute and indifferent to the law. Completely agree with that. I think this is a message to politicians. It's a message to state and local officials. It's a message to lower courts that you have to stop discriminating against religious organizations that uphold the belief that marriage is between one man and one woman. Supreme Court has said that repeatedly, they said that in the obergefell decision, even as they were recognizing constitutional right to same sex marriage, which, incidentally, isn't in the Constitution, they said it again in Masterpiece Cake Shop involving Jack Phillips. And now they said it again here that people may have differences on marriage. But you cannot punish those who believe that marriage is between one man and one woman Constitution says that off limits Now, John Burke. If you were the Persecutors of Jack Phillips and Masterpiece Cake shop. It's happening again. Some people wanted him to make a cake celebrating transgender transition, and he said, no, that's against my religion. So he got fined again by the Denver corridor by the civil authorities in Canada. It's like the dumbest the definition of insanity is doing the same thing and expecting a different result. They're going to lose again. Do you think they'll take a look at 90 and say, Maybe we'd better leave Jack Phillips alone? Well, I sure hope so. Because we represent Jack Phillips. As you know, and his business masterpiece Cake shop will take it back to the U. S Supreme Court if we have to again right now we're headed to the Colorado Court of Appeals. His latest decision against Jack with respect to the gender transition cake came down just days before the unanimous Supreme Court decision in Bolton, the one that we've been talking about, and so I'm hopeful that the Colorado Court of Appeals we'll look at that unanimous decision and take notice. It's ridiculous that they continue to persecute him because of his religious beliefs that there was a great Babylon bee article a couple months ago that people are lining up outside Jack shop just so that they can be offended. And that's not actually what's happening with respect to the cakes that they keep asking. They asked for state and cakes they asked for. Marijuana cakes, and now they're asking for this gender transition cake. On the day, the U. S Supreme Court agreed to hear his last case regarding the the wedding cake. You know, it is going to be a remarkable win when Smith goes, but I love this is a transition and as a message board If anyone doesn't get it, they are simply not.

Queen approves request to suspend Parliament but what does this mean for Brexit?
"And a joining us here in Washington is now Gardner senior fellow at the heritage foundation and also a former adviser to prime minister Margaret Thatcher and now that he could explain exactly what the prime minister did today well for the prime minister requested to to the queen that she had to clear the suspension or pro rotation all parliament in the United Kingdom for appeared all four to five weeks and what this means in terms of the big the big picture is that it is now far less likely that parliament will be able to block what is known as a new deal brexit and it is a very big move by by the prime minister Boris Johnson very bold Kelsey move it has taken many people by surprise in in London and is a clear signal of intent from the prime minister that he is one hundred percent committed to moving forward with brexit on October thirty first deal or no deal but it's important to bear in mind that the suspension of parliament is not unprecedented that have happened in the past and this is mostly a constitutional crisis of some critics all saying the Sony within the the power of the prime minister to seek the pro rotation all person's palm the third that is not the first time it's happened it's been used before and I think that so any Boris Johnson will be feeling more confident now I think you can the the likelihood of brexit happening on October thirty first which is off rule the the will of the British people the particular votive Apraksin twenty sixteen told someone to deliver that a promise on the pledge to the Briton's lotus and it now Gardner is you assess the reaction in Great Britain the head of the labor party Jeremy Corbyn calling this quote a threat to our democracy John Brcko who is the house of Commons speaker calling it a constitutional outrage how do you respond to that yes on is being very fierce opposition from some quarters in parliament especially from the opposition Labour Party but also from the the speaker of the house of Commons tone of Brcko who in one of one on one time was actually conservative but I have to say either the pollen it really will be powerless in my view to to block a new deal brexit unless of parliament is able to bring down the conservative government in a no confidence vote they have one week to do that which begins on Monday next week I think it's unlikely the parliament will have the the votes to to do that and I expect that actually killed from will will succeed it is a rule goal which is to move forward with the brexit agenda but without a doubt I mean they're all a lot of angry voices in parliament and and the speaker of the house of Commons John Burke who is a very all didn't anti brexit campaigner he certainly is going to be one of the most vocal opponents of the suspension of parliament which also cool Scott cut down his own authority as speaker so naturally Mr Brcko is very upset about the developer or talking with now Gardner of the heritage foundation and we should point out this is something that you predicted in one of the conversations we had earlier this summer in terms of the time line if prime minister Johnson in fact was elected by the conservatives to head up the party so walk us through the new deadline October thirty first with parliament coming back in mid October give us a sense of what will happen during that two week period yes Sir on October fourteenth the the conservative government will outline what is known as the end of the queen's speech outlining their agenda and following that there will be a meeting of the European Union helpful October seventeenth to eighteenth where person will seek a new deal with the European Union to withdraw from the E. U. and if a deal is agreed and parliament well I should debate the new with full agreement on October twenty first twenty second and it has to be said of course that is a big question mark whether or not the you will agree to a new agreement that is acceptable to the British government my own sense is the person is heading towards what is known as a new deal brexit and I expect that that new deal brexit will will be implemented on October thirty first unless you're gonna see major concessions from the European Union and of course parliament has to prove when you eat you withhold deal on October twenty first on October twenty second say that there's a big question marks but I would say the policy is very very clear now that we are heading for a a British exit from the E. on October thirty first and most likely that is going to be a new deal exit where white person simply negotiable trade section with the European Union on the World Trade Organization term and I think that that is the most likely scenario now I think there's a very small child all of parliament stopping in new deal brexit but I'd say that that opportunity to parliament to block a new deal brexit is very very minimal right now and I think it's highly likely that we all get to see practical into October thirty first they should help Toba has a number of very big date starting with October the fourteenth the data the queen's speech and then you have the other European Union tells me don't have a seventeenth eighteenth and then parliament will debate the queen's speech and a potential with told agreement on October twenty first twenty second save a lot a lot of events happening in October and one final point we have touched on this in the past but one of the biggest stumbling blocks it continues to appear to be the issue between Northern Ireland which is part of the UK and the Republic of Ireland and trade along the border so explain what the issue is and why that has been so difficult yeah I'll say the big issue for the British government is what is what is called the northern on and backstop found the backstop is basically demanded Bonnie the the European Union order to prevent a heart border between north and on and on the Irish Republic well the backs of actually does is that it this person point into the E. U. customs union indefinitely which is unacceptable to the new British government off rule membership of the EU customs union would mean that Britain could not find the same free trade agreements including with United States and therefore Boris Johnson demanding that the backstop be removed altogether the British government is a is saying that there should be high technology solutions the border issue that there should be a complete removal of any kind of border control between the south and the north of Ireland and that and the backstop should also be removed altogether in order to free person from each house and even answer the British government in favor of any kind of upon border nor is the European Union for some kind of agreement can be reached to remove the backstop but also to ensure that there is no hard border between the north and south more details available online at heritage you dot org Nile gardener here in Washington thank you for being with us it's my pleasure thank you
