Shelley Duvall.
Oh, Shelley Duvall, yeah.
And she had trauma from it.
To this day, she talks about the trauma she had in that movie.
I was reading a story with an interview with her.
She kind of vanished.
Yeah.
And then they were interviewing her and she sounded insane.
Yeah, I think it pushed her over the edge.
I think that movie fucked people up.
Kubrick was a strange guy.
Yeah, he was.
Do you know he would do complex mathematics in his spare time?
Really?
Yeah, he's like a legitimate genius.
Wow.
And he would put all sorts of weird, hidden meaning into all of his movies.
A thing was never just a thing.
There's a big, crazy conspiracy about The Shining
that inside of it is all sorts of information
that it relates to the moon landing.
Yeah, the room in the hotel, it was room 127,
and the moon is 127,000 miles from the earth or something.
No, it's like 237.
Yeah, whatever it was.
The moon is, yeah, the moon is like 200,
I think it's room 237, right?
Yeah, 237.
That's the documentary on it.
The moon is, well, it depends on what time of the year and where,
but it's between 237 and 265,000 miles away.
Well, and they say that he directed the fake movie about the fake moon landing.
Well, that's the big conspiracy theory.
What is the thing in the circle with the Jack Nicholson picture there?
Oh, there's the coffee.
What does it say?
It's the coffee.
It might be the coffee.
Calumet.
Calumet.
What does that mean?
What is Calumet?
And then the other one, you go up, scroll up,
you see the circles, there's rockets on the wall.
Uh-huh.
Sort of.
Sort of.
Yeah, that is, that is, whatever that is.
Yeah.
Strange.
Yeah, but he was into weird shit.
He was a, I mean, he was a legitimate genius.
Yeah.
Like, Eyes Wide Shut, that's another fucking strange movie.
Yeah.
He did a lot of strange movies, man.
Yeah, he did.
Did he do Clockwork Orange?
Was that him?
Yeah.
That was Kubrick.
Jesus, that was.
It was a Full Metal Jacket documentary.
That whole thing they shot in London.
Really?
Because he didn't want, he wouldn't leave his home.
Really?
So they made, like, the second half of the movie is supposed to be in Vietnam,
in, like, some area, part of England.
Really?
Yeah.
Wow.
He wouldn't leave London.
Fuck you, I'm staying here.
But, but the movie's supposed to be in the middle of the jungle.
Yeah.
Well, it's right here.
Here's the jungle.
Fuck off.
Right.
Damn.
He did some wild ass fucking movies.
Yeah, he did.
2001.
The, the, I, the, this conspiracy theory about him directing the moon landing
was that
he was doing it at the same time he was doing 2001.
So, because he was faking this space movie.
Okay.
2001, a space odyssey, that they used him to fake the moon landing footage.
Uh-huh.
And there's a fake documentary, not a real documentary, but a fake, like, a
mockumentary, where he's
admitting, and people are talking about, have you seen that one?
No, but that makes sense.
Yeah.
Yeah, a lot of people are like, dude, you didn't even know there's an actual
real interview
with him where he admits that he faked the moon landing, but it's not.
Yeah.
It's just, it's fake, but it's...
Were you ever on the, uh, in the camp of the moon landing was fake?
For years.
Yeah.
Yeah.
It's one of my favorite all-time conspiracies.
Because it's so strange that we never went back.
I, I abandoned it because I don't know anything about astrophysics or space
travel or any of
that stuff.
And the people that do think it's real.
So I'm like, okay, well, most likely...
I think the landing really happened.
Yeah.
But there's so many weird things to it.
There's so many.
There's so many weird things with the photographs, and there's, like, intersecting
shadows that
indicate different light sources.
There's all sorts of weird...
The flag waving.
Yeah, it's weird shit, man.
There's a lot of weird shit.
The fact that, uh, that this is the only time in human history that something
is not cheaper,
easier, and faster to replicate than it was in 1969.
Which, in 1969, 1972, there was seven trips, six successful, where they went to
the moon
and back.
And, uh, every, every space flight since then has been, like, near-Earth orbit.
Mm-hmm.
You know?
Everything is, like, you know, just a few miles up.
It's not...
They don't, they don't go like they did then.
I mean, I think everything since then is, like, 300 miles.
Every human travel, you know, like, space shuttles and stuff like that, they
never go that
far.
Yeah.
They never go into deep space and come back.
The only time they came back was during the moon landings in the 60s, when they
were lying
about everything.
Yeah.
But the thing is, like, Nixon was president back then.
It was like, it's so romantic to think...
Bombing Cambodia and...
Yeah.
It's so romantic to think that they faked it.
Also, here's another reason.
If you watch the post-flight press conference.
And again, I'm not saying that this is what's, this is actually what's
happening, but it
seems completely like they're full of shit.
When they come back, it seems like they're lying and they're nervous and they
asked them
about the stars.
And again, I'm not on the camp that they faked it, but there was, you know,
Buzz Aldrin,
Neil Armstrong, and Michael Collins.
And Michael Collins, they asked him about stars.
And in the press conference, he's like, I don't recall seeing any stars.
Problem with that is, like, Michael Collins never left the lunar module.
He wasn't supposed to be one of the guys that was on the surface of the moon.
He was up in the craft that was circling, you know, in orbit around the moon.
And then later, when he wrote a book about it, he talked about how magnificent
the stars
looked.
So he has inconsistencies.
So the hoax people point to that.
They also point to the inconsistencies of the actual movement of the astronauts
on the
moon.
Like, there's videos that make it look like they were on wires.
There's videos that fall down.
Yeah, it's like the back of his suit is being pulled by something.
It's weird.
But again, like, when was the last time you saw someone in 1-6 Earth's gravity?
Maybe things just look weird.
But there's a video of them where it looks like they're on trampolines.
It's very strange.
They're bouncing around on the surface of the moon, like, literally.
And you can't see their feet.
Or they're, like, hidden behind equipment.
They're just bouncing up in the air.
And you're like, it's fun.
It's fun to think that Kubrick faked it all.
