Why Do Children See Ghosts?

It was weird, he had my ghost up there before I was done talking about it. Oooooooh. He's like the Tom Pompa ghost that comes right up. Here's the problem with ghosts, those ghost shows. Well yes. Those ghost shows are bullshit. 100%. One of those guys got in trouble recently because he made a ghost book and he plagiarized a bunch of shit. Oh really? Like blatant copy and paste. Yeah. Yeah, jeez. Theater ghosts are some of my favorite. When you go performing these theaters and you talk to the people, I always asked, do you have a ghost? Mmm. Yeah. There was a little boy, I was in... Where was I? Oshkosh. Oshkosh. And there was an old theater and the guy who runs the theater said, you know, we've had this legendary, they keep talking about there's like three ghosts and the thing. And they're having a cocktail party upstairs in this like cocktail lounge off the balcony and his son, this guy's son ran into the balcony and he's talking with people and he goes, I gotta go get him. And he goes in there and the kids leaning over the balcony talking to the stage, having a conversation with someone. He's like, yeah, no. No, that, oh, this is my dad. He wants us to go down there. Who wants us to go? That guy, he wants us to go down there. There was no one down there. The thought about that with little kids is that little kids have not dulled all of their senses with the pressures of the world and all the other information that we carry around in our heads and all of our ideas of what's real and what's not real and that little kids are open more and then they could see things. Flea from the Red Hot Chili Peppers was talking about that with his son, that his son is like, I think it was Flea. Yeah. And his son is tuned in to spirits in a way that he was looking at. It was like, maybe it's that these kids are not, like maybe we all have that in us, but it's blunted by pressures and life and the lack of sleep and responsibilities and relationships and work and- And fear. Yeah, and everything. And also, we define how the world is. We get it in our head that these are the parameters for the world. This is how the world works and that's it. And go to work and fucking button up your fucking sleeves. Right, this is my belief. Yes, yeah. My belief system is going to carry me through. Yeah. Yeah. This is what it is. It's a fact. It is. All right. All right. All right. All right. All right. All right. All right. All right. All right.
