Tremendous research you and the team at WF do for every episode. The best research in the web )) And entertaining to watch !

There is speculation that the eye of Africa is Atlantis.

Tea Baggins

Great episode as always. The plushie arrived to Tokyo.. The quality is much better than I expected. Especially the teeth. Thinking of getting one for my kids too.

Adam Hardenburgh

Thanks for all the hard work! Always excited to see the new episodes and definitely look forward to a deeper look into the Annunaki!

Don Stewart

Loved the EP. I like these. Really makes me think and wonder a bit?

John Lane

This was an extremely interesting episode! I have always wondered about Atlantis and other lost places. Thank you so much for this episode!

Susi Su

Yes, by "science" I am talking about scientists as a whole.

Led Nicky

Haha, I kept waiting for a big debunk, but it turned out to be more complex than expected. Love the new lyrics and I really love your sponsor ads 💕😁

Adam (Pappy) Koehler

Great episode The next Episode sounds really interesting . I studied the Kabbala and Gnostic Theism and that sounds very close to those ideological ideas that speaks about the Demiurge Theory/Beliefs.

Karie Brown

Yessss!! Great Episode!! 🙌🏼🐪✨💫

Bad-Haggis

Love the show! Been a faithful follower since February. Tonight I joined the Patreon family. Looking forward to joining the fun.

ObserverJM

Great episode! Your sense of humor and happiness is uplifting. Keep it up!

ObserverJM

It's not science that is arrogant, it is people. Most (especially early) archeology was funded by Europeans. Anything that didn't fit their narrative of history was ignored or buried.

ObserverJM

National Geographic funded an expedition there. It was halted a few days in with no explanation.

Smolly

WF never fails to entertain. Love this.

Bobbie Zarate

YAS!! The New Theme Song is Freaking Amazing 🤘😝🤘

B. Roxy Rogers

Fantastic as always, AJ, HF, WF Team!! The updated theme song is rad, love it!

Donni Wilcox

AJ you did it again what an awesome show I absolutely loved it ! You rock!

Kenneth Wilson

Got my Hecklefish plushie in just in time for the premiere

DS_the_RN

Great new outro song!

Bosco Lemonzit

wait, a dog's sack is a compliment? holy shit, all these years people telling me I have a face like a dog's sack and they were telling me I was good looking? Damn!

Bosco Lemonzit

I worked for apple for 9 years doing phone support and lost count of the number of calls from someone because some kid grabbed their phone and changed the language to chinese or hebrew.

Rocky Baroli

Great show! It always has me counting the days until Thursday. I can’t think of anything you haven’t covered so I’m excited to see what’s next. What up Hecklefish! ✌🏼❤️

Mustafa's Fleas

What a great good romp! Always a most enjoyable way to piss-away 30 to 50 minutes!!! The Why-Files is some of the best "brain-candy" that may be found anywhere in the interweb!

Rocky Baroli

A friendly hello from a fellow Idahoan 👋🏼

D Reinke

New outro is amazing, great episode and great work as always!

Cris Paltenghe

When Pangea split apart, 200 - 175 million years ago, Antarctica was in the middle. Wikipedia has a good map of it, and it looks suspiciously like the hypothesized Lemuria and fits the geographic and fossil record bills. The problem is the timing. 200 million years ago would be early Jurassic period. Additionally it took at least 25 million years for the drift to occur, and is still going on.

Ryan Blankenship

Thomas Pynchon wrote a novel about a time traveling Lemurian that goes into this very battle and how it’s shaped our present.

John and Melissa Jett

Absolutely the best in months!! The last two episodes have been so great. Reminds me why I fell in love with the channel last year. My first episode was the Egyptians in the grand canyon. Hooked me so hard. This has the same feel and I love it. Great job guys ❤❤

Desiderata

This episode was fantastic, just like all of your episodes: well-researched and also clear and concise. My favorite episodes are always ones like this meaty one! There is a sprinkle of religion, myth, the supernatural, history, archaeology, science, even some maps thrown in. These episodes provoke deep thought and inspire big questions, and a big desire to know a lot more. The extra work these type of episodes require is obvious, and like posting resources, greatly appreciated. Thank you for all of it. On a different note (see what I did there?), the outro song is ABSOLUTELY PERFECTION!! I keep playing it over and over!! MORE GERTIE- made me giddy happy. I love Gertie—more Gertie and HeckleLord—do I smell backstory? A franchise?!?!? She’s so enigmatic. Is there a dark secret buried in their relationship- like the skeletons in your closet? Do you think it would make HeckleLord jealous if we started a Gertie Fan club? Did I mention I LOVE & ADORE Gertie?

Adeana in Idaho

Hello, Great episode! Anyone know when we can expect to receive our Hecklefish plushies??

Andrew Ellis

The hall is rented, the orchestra engaged, it’s now time to see if you can dance! The why files team can definitely dance

NorthwoodsJen

L-Y-R-I-C-S ! Dance, Gertie!! 🕺 🐪 💃🏻

Maddoktor2

Now do Zealandia! =D

Bosco Lemonzit

I don't know, if you think song lyrics will prove you are not crazy, I just don't know. I can remember lyrics to every Supertramp, Pink Floyd, and Monkees, song ever done, hasn't helped me a bit prove to anyone I'm sane. Of course, supertramp being my fav all time group does start me behind the 8 ball....

Bosco Lemonzit

well said, it always scratches that itch - I've spent many hours thinking about this home that has formed for so many, the weekly shows, after files, friday morning shindig, it's become such an important part for so many of us in our lives and why. no answers, but that 'it always scratches that itch' was just a dead solid perfect description.

S D Hall

Great episode! I have always loved the closing but today when I heard it it just made me smile. I love the new lyrics!!! Absolutely perfect!!!

Bosco Lemonzit

got me, I answered you 11 hours ago and still don't see my response to your question you hadn't asked yet.

Bosco Lemonzit

cheer up, the same people programing AI and self driving cars are the offspring of the programmers that brought you the blue screen of death for 30 years and counting. it's bound to shut itself down after deleting all the files one day.

Bosco Lemonzit

I mean the idea for the code word, I don't like having a wet ass. I'M NOT THAT OLD DAMNIT!

Bosco Lemonzit

I like it!

Bosco Lemonzit

Here we come? Actually, that might be the best way, get all the 'nutters of the world' who listen to Art Bell reruns, C2C, Why Files etc, there must be enough of us to surround Mt Shasta 100 yards deep and then everyone just start climbing up together, all tens of thousands, hey, who's kidding who, it will be millions, and what are the lizzard peeeeople gonna do? We just all walk up the mountain, everyone squeezing their Hecklefish Plushy at the mountain to ward off evil spirits. They will all leave earth and never come back, except the reptilians here amongst us, their heads will just explode when Shasta empties. They way to defeat them is with our strength, the tens of millions of American people with nothing better to do and a huge woodstocky event in a pot is legal state to look for aliens? They don't have a chance against us! Don't forget the Slim Whitman CDs and records.

Brandon Rieger

Another Great episode, well made. Thank you. It always scratches that itch... what if, and leaves you pondering.

Skeptical_Savage

Loved this episode…there is SO much we just don’t know about our past…the way you put all the pieces together in this episode was brilliant…and OMG the new song with TWF lyrics is the absolute best!!

Philip Booth

YAHTZEE!!!!! Great Job!!!

Karl poff

I need the lyrics to prove to myself I am not crazy

Deontay Hieb

Susi Su

I love this sort of thing. The stuff that traditional science/archaeology says doesn't exist. I've been watching Graham Hancock's Ancient Apocalypse in the last week, and it's all fascinating. I don't understand why science is so arrogant to insist that current knowledge is all there can be, especially when developments are happening all the time. Edit: New song...............great lyrics, but the pitch was a bit too much. Had to turn it down. Shrill! Headache! Ow!

Scott Crawford

I love the updated outlook song and the constant respect to Art Bell.

Craig Walker

An excellent episode! The quality doesn’t change! :)

Jeffrey Thomas

Annunaki!! Yeeeessss!!!

Jim W

I've never seen that Cuban sunken city before and I love this stuff. That one is beyond nuts. There's literally no logical way that could exist without so many things we've been taught in geosciences are completely wrong. 650m below sea level? What? There's almost nothing on it online. Sus.

Jamarr Mays

AJ said Atlanta instead of Atlantis one time. Let’s see if you can spot where!

Emily Haag

"What's buzzin sexy cousin" is how I greet everyone from this day forward

Guylaine Boivin

How do you master storytelling this well, be it true or false. You ARE the best out there and I'm so happy for you that so many are Patrons! Waiting for my talking Hecklefish plushie!!! <3

Lancer3693

how did they get through the Van Allen Belt, Jen?

Trey M

Why did this only pop up 2 hrs ago yet it says posted 9 hrs ago?

Jeff Sanchez

Anunnaki episode. Can't wait.

Wilma Titzgreaux

This was good but my all-time favorite so far is the one about a month ago on AI!!!! Still haunts me!

Wilma Titzgreaux

tomorrow night’s code word for the prize should be “WETASS!”

Wilma Titzgreaux

Where’s Gino?

DonnaG

I'm eager for the annunaki show too! You tell a super story! I really liked this episode! So much fun! Thank you!!!

Chase Schleich

That would be very cool. Super chat that idea in to him on the live show tomorrow.

Crazy Dave

“Under a mountain in California.” First timer: “wow, where!?” Long timers: “Mt Shasta baby, here we go!!” I love this channel and community, thank you AJ!

Greg Miller

Awesome episode. My wife is going to love it!

Marcus Aurelius

Thank you for another great episode AJ, Hecklefish, Ms. Jen, Ms. Victoria, and Gino.

Ed E Buskirk

Okay, the new lyrics are a hit. Great episode as always. “GERTIELOVESTODANCE” has to be tomorrow nights prize phrase.

NikkiBubblesMom

Excellent episode!!

Helle

That sounded like Picard, glad he's getting work. Wetass...perfect, you do know we are all going to call it that now. Loved the episode, so much information and we all appreciate your hard work, thank you!

Jennifer Hope

😂🤣😂🤣 Love the new lyrics!

Jennifer Hope

Another amazing episode! Thanks so much AJ and hecklefish. I'm hoping in our lifetime many more discoveries will be made that may prove Atlantis and Lemuria are real.

Daniel Wasserott

I have scuba dived Yonaguni and it is amazing!

Whiskey Tango-Foxtrot

I'd love to see a "Making of a WF episode". How do y'all do so much research, recording, editing, etc every week. It's immensely impressive.

John Edgeworth

A Great story, different from the norm and that is okay because when we get back to the aliens and the Lizzid people they will be so much more scarier!

Trish Edwards

I loved this one... don't know how you kids do it, though. So great, every week! Awesome end credits this time!

Wilma Titzgreaux

Does anyone know where AJ got the opening scene for the live streaming. Looks a little bit like Space Odyssey.

Brian Lantz

Fun episode. Can’t wait for the Anunnaki.

Jeremy Shorter

Another great episode…? If you keep this up, we’re going to be expecting too much from you. 🤣

Wendaruth

Love the closing song lyrics!

Sunkissed Penumbra

I love the song remix! Gerty loves to dance, I'll dance with Gerty too! <3

Colin Butterworth

Close up Nurse lol And new lyrics 😳🤘

Connie Brand

The Smithsonian knows where the lost continents are!!!

Shanon Freeman

The song. 🥰🐪🐟

AC

There is a Shasta Episode

thormusique

That was the absolute dog's bollocks (translation: super fantastically good)! Every episode of TWF has been truly wonderful. Please keep them coming, cheers!

Bosco Lemonzit

Finish the surgery first, let the nurses finish sewing him up

Autumn Spredemann

*girlish excited squealing* 😍

Safe and effective!

You are going to need a separate video just for your patreons. The list is getting impressively long... WOCKA WOCKA

Rio Reason

That was SO good. I truly hope you make what you deserve doing this. It certainly seems like you enjoy doing it, and we thoroughly enjoy every minute you provide! Thanks team! 💕

william john travis morgan

Great episode and a fun end credit song. Anyone interested in Polar reversal science and cyclic cataclysms should check out Douglas Vogt @ the Diehold foundation http://www.dieholdfoundation.com/ and https://www.youtube.com/@dieholdfoundation6705 - Doug is one of the smartest guys I know and receives very little credit for his original groundbreaking work. Peace.

ExCalibur623

Never leave your phone unlocked around nieces & nephews in a family of brutal pranksters!🫣🫥🥸😳🙄 "Madagascar" became some sort of cannonball? I will kill them all! I'm dying a slow death of embarrassment. This happens a LOT more than it should b / c I got divorced w/ no kids & retired in my 40s, so my apple product security is pretty lax around home to put it mildly! Ugh!

Jackson

I do love that song. Very very clever.

LizardWhisperer

The song was always great, but now it’s PERFECT.

Jackson

Smashed another episode outta the park again! I do love it when HF get's excited... Can see why he is a hit with the laydees!

elMexineck

Smashing good

Jason Moore

Yaaay. Can't wait to watch!

Christopher Nichols

I like how you rolled the Patrons list backwards!

William Scott

Looking forward to the Annunaki episode!

MikeD

I may have to turn in my tinfoil hat. While I’ve heard of Atlantis, Lemuria only recently popped up on my radar, although I have heard conjecture on a lost continent, Perhaps I just didn't know the name. Good storytelling and good new lyrics!

MikeD

Sounds interesting. As AJ would say himself, send it in on the tips line so it doesn’t get lost.

Rick Tucker

I love the wonders of this world! Just when someone thinks they've got it figured out, well, seems they don't. What's the truth? I won't even pretend to know.

Rolf Magne Kårbø

Great episode buddy😁🤌 im from norway, we have some strange lights here in a place called Hessdalen. No one still can explaine this. Maby you could look into it and see what u find out aboute them😊😉 tnx fore all your work to m8 🤜🤛 i think your show is great😁

Gods Demon

love it!

Saturn's Dad.

This was an awesome episode. So fun. And as informative as ever.

Bosco Lemonzit

oh, and 25th, damnit!

Bosco Lemonzit

This was amazing, a topic I rarely paid any attention to and thus knew little about and it was a fascinating story! Thanks

Donna Marie Schmink

Well done. Loved the credits, music Gertie and HF, AJ! Lovely jiggle!

Brenda H

Love this episode, so well done, definitely worth waiting for. Also love the new version of the closing song, so funny. I received my 3 plushies yesterday and they are awesome and work perfectly! A great Why Files? week. Thanks so much!

SpaceMatt Spliff

I like the new lyrics. great episode as always. thanks for all the hard work.

Kris L

Great story! Looking forward to the Annunaki episode!

Pete Mitchell

Great, great, great! Always been interested in Atlantis, and read a bunch of Edgar Cayce's readings. The research y'all do enhances everything I've already read. Thanks! Keep it up!

Ryan Gallant

This was awesome!!

Daniel Nye

Great Vid. 👍

Vicky Humphrey

Cool ending song!! :) Vicky H

Trodden An3urysm

Apollo 20 after files 1:54:47 to 1:55:12... one of my favorite moments from the live files...cheers y'all!

Kazren

Another intriguing episode. I have to say, I'd love you to bundle all the legends, stories and info on Mt. Shasta and do an entire episode. What an adventure.
