Absolutely LOVED the show! Aaaand, I think I finally figured out how to post on Discord! So, assuming that I did it correctly, you guys can see the alien pics that I told you about a few weeks back. They are under E.T. in the A.I.(Here's the link : https://discord.com/channels/756589839435956395/1084651189481775134 Let me know what you think...

robert geoffroy

Awesome episode as always

Kerry Pitt

I was thinking the same thing! I only ever saved one they had to actually reach in with a tool and pull it out! The thing has its own gravitational field! But maybe we are into something?

Welcome, Tambra!

Hi y'all, I'm a new Patreon member. Love the show .

Bruv. I have about ten “philosopher’s stones” in a specimen jar on my counter. They’re kidney stones largely made from urea. The largest one I had in my kidney was as round as the diameter of a quarter. I get those philosopher’s stones about once every two years since I take in too much soda and too little water. ….. I know what that smell is, too 😆😆

Larry Hupman (Justaguy)

Great episode. Thank you for all your hard work.

Ingi Jensson

Excellent episode ❤️🥳❤️ … now to find a tinkle container …

Karie Brown

I loved this episode! It reminded me of the topics of some of the earlier days. Hecklefish banter was hilarious, per usual!

Matt

Is there going to be a live stream tonight?

Chase Schleich

It really wasn't. I checked the other day and the channel was suddenly over 1.5 million (now 1.67) subs. He just hit a million very recently and he just blew past it. Seeing it go from around 10,000 to now approach 2 million.... It's crazy.

Noah Laughton

I remember those days well and it really wasn’t that long ago if you think about it.

Jay White

Awesome, I really enjoyed that one!

Mister Larson

Another triumph. Love the humor and the "apple juice." I like the new effects as well. :)

Kazren

I enjoyed the show and appreciate all the effort and time you put into this for us.

David Alan Gay

Somehow living forever and being rich has lost its appeal. Can't figure out how.😛

Tom Jones

Big fan of the channel, but really not enjoying the new overproduced feeling of the newer videos. Sound effects are fine, but most get repetitive and annoying (popping for some of Hecklefish on screen words, for example). The old timey flickering effect in video clips is just annoying to me. I might be in the minority, but I much preferred the less gimmicky version of these videos. Information and intelligent analysis mixed in with humor makes these videos unique and priceless. I dont want to watch Pop Up Video from VH1.

Walt Holbrook

Another great show and really good topic.... See ya in 600yrs cheers!

Sketchy Guy NV

So just to get my facts straight. The Emerald Tablet is NOT from the Emerald City…right?

Casie West

I'm good. I'd rather just face the unknown (: Love the show! Excellent topic as always!

Matt

Is there going to be a livestream tonight?

Lord Squirrel

600 years? Deal!

lanye barnick

Very good show. Wish he would have covered The Universal Medicine Nicholas D. Collette . Nicholas actually tried to make the stone and the elixir of life. Some say he did and some say he was killed for doing so. Lot's of information out on his books and his school as well as the mistery behind his death including his rumored usage of red mercury.

Kevin Via

Exactly

Maff Bowers

The brilliant interweaving of humour and investigation into interesting topics makes this channel genuinely one of the best on YouTube

John Seychel

I ah, suffer from constant pain, I can't take pain meds without well my kidney's failing, or dwelling the dark path's things that should never ever be tried in the first place. I even have to avoid even when doctors ask if I am crazy. I game and I write and do what ever I can to take my mind off it. This man knows how to fish too, pretty well I would say, he even makes them smart as..s, as well. I was doing a good job writing my letter when this popped up in my email. I saw what the topic is, and and all my writing, started say watch its a pc of history aren't you, huh, huh, and not being able to stop thinking about it, I gave in to take that bait hard core, and swallowed that hook, and reeled me in. Any how, when someone is really good telling stories, historically, tribes all have stories passed down the secrets of the ancients around camp fires. No one, I mean no one can tell stories the way the teller's did it. Italian, name the the master story tellers, called De'Anouncioi, but even that family had a place in time and every other camp fires out there had one. When they went and sat at the fire everyone gets quiet, and waits. This man, I am not sure what his real name is, but for me he's De'Anouncio!!

John Seychel

LOL, I could've and should've watched this earlier, I am writing an important letter, and this caught my attention and my brain can't stop thinking history lesson, got to hear it NOW, thats my brain, go figure?.

Ivari Tölp

Each time the little "WF" logo comes up, in my mind it translates to "What Fuck". 🤷‍♀️

Whiskey Tango-Foxtrot

my favorite night of the week

John Edgeworth

WoW. That was fun, I will need to watch this one again and of course"again" during the premiere and the after show. As always great work, cannot thank you enough for all that you do to keep us entertained and informed. The After show with you, the Mrs and the crew is wonderful, please never stop doing that. Thanks

Fred Haight

Excellent

19BiGRED74

Excellent!!! Loved this topic!!! Thank you AJ & Hecklefish & crew!!!

Vicky Humphrey

Dobby :) Such a beautiful place, to be with friends

Chase Schleich

Holy hell your list of patrons at the end is insane now! You've got it scrolling at 100x speed and it still takes 5 minutes to get through them all lol. Feels like just yesterday there were only a few dozen of us.

Muriel

Aaron Smith-Levin would love it if he did end up in a court room. Lol

Muriel

AJ, I hope you get a nice boost of views tomorrow. I mentioned it to a few people. Love your show and all the work you and your team put into it. 🙂

David Parisi

Very well done episode!! Thank you AJ!! Great work!!

Niles Henke

Scientology would never sue you because David Miscavige is too crazy, they won't let him near a courtroom

NorthwoodsJen

Well…..that was awesome!!

Jeff Pierce

Great episode!

Niles Henke

This! AJ, the WF logo in the thumbnail is the reason I originally clicked on your video. Great choice, whoever picked that one!

B. Roxy Rogers

Combining Hermeticism, Alchemy, Atlantis, Thoth!, Library of Alexandria, and Egyptian history and the Philosopher's stone . . . I'm a SF/F writer and I can't come up with content this good. AJ, you're a genius! When Jen said last week, your Team had 12 episodes lined up, man, just awesome. Last episode about Tesla (a favorite creative and subject of mine) was SO good I didn't think you guys would top that. I think that every episode. I'm always wrong. And happy to be. When LHF yelled Yahtzee!🎲 I lost my sh!t. Love it. The Why Files always delivers. Many thanks!🙏🤍

ds

as always, well done AJ. really enjoyed the episode

Christia Brown

Another fantastic episode!! Yay AJ and Hecklefish - can’t wait until tomorrow!!! 🤘🏼💕

Victoria

Love the very last line, funny guy!

Victoria

If it was…. He better start drinking more water! 😂😂

Nicholas A Preator

Haha the end was really funny!! Loved the episode. Great work!

Carlos Lamas

My older brother drinks his own pee and before he started he had lots of gray hair. After only a few survived and he claims it made his eyes see better

SGW4K

Great episode. The real question on everyone's minds is wether your bottle was filled with actual urine or not 😂

MikeD

I do both too. I often have questions after the first viewing, which I usually have answered when I watch it again during the premier. Plus, I want to feed the YouTube algorithm to support the channel further.

MikeD

Nonsense! Just one question: At what low temperature should I boil my urine for the next year?

Ben Dubaye(dewbay)

It was a very gloomy day here, but, you changed all that with this great show. Always well researched(you covered a lot of ground, kudos), always a great subject(eternal life!!!) Hecklefish was in great shape. I am old enough though to know that eternal life is very costly; but, for the next few days the second thing I will do as I wake up will be smiling…😊

Chuck Brown

AJ your channel is awesome! I have to say every time the “WF” comes up I find myself asking “Where is the T between the W and F”. Great content look forward to more. I keep suggesting the majestic 12. Maybe Heckle fish could lead that discussion while you heckle him?

Jackson

Awesome episode! But saying you shouldn't do another Star Wars bit? I find your lack of faith disturbing... 🤏

Jen Giresi

That was great! Very much enjoyed it

73chn05h4m4n

oh! Amaroli! the medicine for cancer!

Dave Curtis

Given that some alcohols are aged for a decade or more, I’d think the time it takes to make one wouldn’t be beyond reach.. maybe we value our booze more than our lives. 🤷‍♂️

Master Baytes

finished it, oh goodness. if the philosophers stone was made of urine, there'd be an infinite supply of them at the bottom of public pools and water parks!

Kevin Heidler

Wow, that was a lot of research! Great episode....is it just me, or does AJ look younger??

Kevin Via

I do both! Although I missed the last 2 weeks do to poker game. (It's my income) I was worried AJ would just shut the channel down if I wasn't there, but he pushed on. 😁narcissist not me🤣🤣🤣

Seth Forrestier

This was great. I loved it.

Jack O. Lantern

I’d go with immortality, in time you could make enough money. The question is would you be healthy for that immortality. I don’t believe and the philosopher stone, for the simple fact that if the Egyptian’s had the recipe off the tablet, wouldn’t they have used it, instead of turning themselves into mummies. Unless you’re talking about the early kings, which who are listed for living crazy long lives and maybe they lost it afterwards.

Sydney Greer

🤣🤣🤣

Sydney Greer

I love being a patron, but I have to wait for the live! It’s my Thursday night tradition. ❤️❤️❤️ Can’t wait to see this one!

Kevin Via

I wish I would have known you where planning this video! Your one of the few in the world I would have loaned the stone too. Oh well maybe next time.

Master Baytes

alright let's giver a watch

Chip Snyder (chiphappened)

I’ll take what’s behind door number 3! Seriously the Why Files is the perfect medium for these crazy times we’re living in. Thank you AJ and Hecklefish!!
