Surviving the Apocalypse Next to Walmart
What if a UFO cult existed right down the street from your favorite barbecue joint? Meet the enigmatic Outer Dimensional Forces of Weslaco, Texas, where we unravel the eccentric history and practices of this intriguing group. Guided by their guru Nordrog, a man who claims to have witnessed a UFO landing in the 1950s, the cult built the Armageddon Time Ark—a spaceship designed to save them during the apocalypse. Discover how this group funded their outlandish project by selling spaceship seats through Popular Mechanics magazine and explore the daily lives of its members, all while speculating on their proximity to a bustling Walmart.
Get ready for a wild ride as we discuss their preparations for the biblical end times, their unique methods of survival, and the curious ways they sustain their community. From selling honey to homeschooling their kids, our conversation takes a humorous turn, even imagining them using DoorDash for their apocalyptic needs. We'll ponder the fine line between religious freedom and societal norms, and consider reaching out to someone inside the cult for more insights. Plus, enjoy a fun tangent about Lego Batman and the Joker's fun house—because every deep dive needs a little comic relief!

hey welcome back to paranormal 956. My name is david and, as always, I am here with bianca, hi guys what are we talking about today?
Speaker 1:uh, what's the goal, ufos?
Speaker 2:We got the outer dimensional alien forces. Yes, we have in the RGV. Yeah, a doomsday.
Speaker 1:We have our area 51 guys.
Speaker 2:Yes, yes, put us on the map.
Speaker 1:Yeah, big shout out, big shout out to the valley so this is another suggestion from one of our listeners.
Speaker 2:I think he's our only fan at this point no, no, no, the one man click sent this in. He's actually a good friend of mine, a tiktok friend of mine, a TikTok buddy of mine, good rapper, all around good guy. He asked me. So he does not like ghost stories and he does not like murderers and he doesn't like all that stuff, but he's super into aliens, right. And so one time we went to lunch and he says hey, have you heard about that UFO cult in West Lico?
Speaker 1:Oh, it's a cult.
Speaker 2:It's a cult yeah, and so I was like so we didn't know each other that well at the time this was like one of our first collabs, like they said.
Speaker 1:You thought he was just high.
Speaker 2:Yeah, wouldn't have put it past him at all. And he goes no, no, for real, like look it up on reddit, blah, blah, blah, right. And so I looked it up and so there is a cult, and so when you go to west lico, it's right off the highway okay and so, being a foodie like I am and I do the barbecue stuff right there is a place in west lico called Teddy's Barbecue.
Speaker 2:It's on Texas Street and so the way you can remember where to go if you're on your way from here, from Los Fresnos, brownsville area, you're headed to West Lico. You get into West Lico and you see a Walmart. You're going to turn down that street, and so I'm friends with the guys who own and run Teddy's. I go there a lot, I drive through, I drive right in front of this 100 times maybe more than that right, I love, I love teddy's.
Speaker 1:I drive right past this place, and so um but you didn't pay attention never paid attention right.
Speaker 2:And so, um, the one man click tells me he's like well, you go to joel's, right, that's the name of the owner. He goes. You go to joel's, I go. Yeah, it's right there on that fucking corner, what? Where walmart is he's like, yeah, it's right there. And in my mind I was like what is right there? Like it didn't make any sense there's so like the next week. Like usual, I go over there and I just noticed that I never saw before Like two acres of land.
Speaker 1:Right.
Speaker 2:On the corner of where Walmart is, so you have the parking lot and everything.
Speaker 1:Yeah.
Speaker 2:There's a fence with this little block of land Well, not little, it's like two acres of land and a huge fence around it Right and these humongous trees Right. So I turn around the corner and as I turn the corner, there's only one door to get into this compound and there's no trespassing signs all over the place Right. And since I turn and I'm going straight, I never really paid attention right there on the corner uh-huh and it says something like ata.
Speaker 2:I think is what it says at ata and there's like an armageddon time arc what yeah, so this is the story of the outer dimensional forces. They have, like a guru right, their pope, I guess okay, he goes by the name of nordrog, and this is where that name comes from. It sounds like some kind of ancient god or something. Sure he was born gordon, and this is his name. Backwards, so gordon, backwards.
Speaker 2:No drug right, and so anyway, yeah, so it turns out on this little piece of land they claim. Years and years ago, like in the 1950s, a ufo landed there on that little piece of land and so they started a cult and so they have going back to, like the bible, you have noah's ark right right, where you put all the animals in a boat, blah, blah, blah right, and then when they had the 10 commandmentsments, they put the Ten Commandments in a thing called the Ark of the Covenant. Okay, so now this thing is called the Armageddon Time Ark and what this is supposedly is a spaceship, right, right. This is how they were making their money for a long time. So they used to put ads in a long time. So they used to put ads in a magazine called popular mechanics. You know, yeah, they were putting ads in this magazine. I don't know how long popular, I don't even know if it's still out, but it was very.
Speaker 2:It was very popular in the 80s back then yeah, and so they would put schematics and all kinds of cool stuff right and the newest technology, etc. And so they would put this ad in this magazine all the time. And what they were promising is that when Armageddon, when God comes to destroy the earth Right, and he's going to separate the good people from the bad people that's Armageddon you could rent or buy space on this spaceship, right oh, and then a plane ticket, right and so apparently that's how they were running an airline right, and so that's kind of where they were making their money, I guess for a long time.
Speaker 2:So fast forward to like the 1980s. I think okay, we still buy a ticket I think you can, I think you can, uh, so, so we're showing up to the property.
Speaker 1:Can I get a refund Right? My dad bought it back in the 80s but he never used it.
Speaker 2:I may or not, may not be thinking about starting my own spaceship because this sounds like easy money.
Speaker 1:It does.
Speaker 2:Because nobody even ever saw.
Speaker 1:I mean you're not selling a piece of land like a cemetery Right?
Speaker 2:And this is going to happen at the end of the world.
Speaker 1:So who knows? Right, it's just free money.
Speaker 2:cemetery right, and this is going to happen at the end of the world. So, who knows, right comes here, whatever. Yeah, and it's like if the end of the world comes and you don't have that space on that, right then what happens you? There's no time to give refunds right, it's a win-win. Catch you, if you can it's like the perfect it is, it's the perfect thing, and so I need to find this real quick.
Speaker 1:Why the fuck are we on a podcast? We should be out here selling tickets.
Speaker 2:We should be selling this stuff.
Speaker 1:You're going to take off in spaceship number one. You're going to take off in spaceship number two, seat 3B.
Speaker 2:Yeah, so there was. Oh fuck, where did I put it? There was a Like how do you say it? They sell like parts. I need to figure out what the name of that. Parts of what so this people that make these spaceships?
Speaker 1:Okay.
Speaker 2:I think they sell like electronic parts or something.
Speaker 1:What do you mean? Like a compressor, an alternator?
Speaker 2:I guess so. And so the reason that I yeah, it's all bullshit, all of it, but there was fuck. Where did I put it? There was a oh, is this it? No, here it is. Here, it is Okay. So the name of the company that they own, and it's at the same location as this called right.
Speaker 2:It's called Mosho Instruments, right, okay, and so this is their business listing, and so what I did is I went to go look at their reviews, and so they have 2.7 stars, and I'm going to read you this first review.
Speaker 1:First, Right, are you going to say names and all that? I'm going to say it because it's just the first name.
Speaker 2:It's Irene, okay, she wrote you first, right, right, and I'm gonna say it because it's just the first name. It's irene. Okay, she wrote this in 2017 and she puts not sure why this place has such negative reviews. I just received a great postcard from this place telling me that the time arc service modules have returned, so naturally, I'm excited. I didn't even know they left. I'm a little bummed to hear that positive survival is not possible on this continent and that I must evacuate. This continent is where I keep all my stuff. However, I really can't argue with the alter-dimensional forces. I enjoyed the postcard very much. It's the best one I've received. Thanks, no drug. All right, so there's more. This is by Jesse S Right, and they put a bad review. This is never got. Huh, how many stars. One star Never got my time machine arc in the mail. Very upset still being in this dimension. Time to join a different cult, I guess wait, how much did they pay?
Speaker 2:they don't say how much they paid they didn't say, they didn't say, and so here's another one. This is real short um. It just says it it's a z p, that's what their name is, and it just says don't know what this store is. Does anyone know what this store is? Because I don't have any information about it. But I love how people are happy with their postcards, etc.
Speaker 1:But anyway, so yeah, so they basically sell parts, but send postcards.
Speaker 2:Right, and so another thing. So I heard a story I think it was on Reddit or somewhere. They were talking about how this guy fixed their car for them and when it was time to pay it was in the YouTube video.
Speaker 1:Yeah, um so there's actually like a bunch of stories of it a lot. And it's basically the same thing over and over again. They don't, we don't seem to get. We need to get a interview or something on this people.
Speaker 2:So the last. So this guy has to be super old if he's even alive, right, and so they haven't seen him in decades, I think, because he's possibly dead, like he probably passed away a long time ago, this Nordrog guy. But the ATF did raid them several years back and they found a bunch of weapons and they took that stuff. They claim to not see a spaceship, but I find that hard to believe. There has to be something.
Speaker 1:yeah, I mean even if they find it how they're gonna confiscate it right, I think that's what it was.
Speaker 2:They were like I don't want to carry this, just say we didn't see nothing. Yeah, we'll take these pistols.
Speaker 1:We're not going to bring up a trailer and pack everything up and do paperwork for it. No, forget it.
Speaker 2:Yeah, because that's a whole nother paperwork with UFOs. Yeah, like guns, easy, easy peasy.
Speaker 1:Yeah.
Speaker 2:But I mean UFOs, that's a whole new whole nother.
Speaker 1:Thing file so apparently they're not doing financially well right now I mean, if I was a cop allegedly I mean I wouldn't go through that paperwork maybe one day.
Speaker 2:Yeah, that you're gonna be a great cop anyways that would be a good podcast though right stories from the blue line do it for the plot so apparently back to my story about that. Somebody fixed their car oh, it's true, it's true and when they went to pay them, they asked them if they would take honey instead of money because they grow honey grow honey which I will tell you as aie myself, I want to get a hold of this honey and I want to taste this time-traveling honey.
Speaker 1:What if it's honey brought from outer space? It could be space, honey, they do deliveries and it's like fucking expensive and they're trying to pay the mechanic. The mechanic's like no, I don't take honey.
Speaker 2:Yeah, because you imagine how much space honey is just the import tax alone has to be a lot.
Speaker 1:I mean the, the traveling, I mean how much gas.
Speaker 2:Are they with? You're gonna pay by the mile right right so this cult has and it's. I've read the website. It's very difficult to understand.
Speaker 2:They kind of have their own reality okay, so so In the Bible, in Revelation, they talk about the final days, god's war. I guess you could say it's called Armageddon, and so they're kind of preparing for that. And so there were certain stages of this, like your last chances to get off the planet, and North America's little window to get out has passed, according to them. So everybody in North America, unless you're on that spaceship, we're no good.
Speaker 2:You got to get to another continent. They weren't super clear, at least to my understanding. If they believe that there's going to be like South America's next or Europe's next I don't know if there's a countdown or if it's just north america doesn't count, okay, but um, we're in stage two already you know what I just noticed, what you have a clown up there is it the joker? Because I have a batman, a whole batman. Oh, it's the, it's the castle. Yeah, the it's the joker's fun house anyways a little too late for that.
Speaker 2:But yeah, I just noticed that yeah, one episode late isn't it two oh, maybe it's two, I don't know, I think it's two because we did so. I'm not a math major, so sue me, yeah. So I have lego batman and I have my lego collection all around us right and um. One of us is drunk right with adhd, with adhd which is a very entertaining combination, right for me at least no, for me too, I would say sure we entertain ourselves, you're talking about the honey and the mechanic so with this cult, this is what I don't understand.
Speaker 2:I don't know how many people are left in this cult, because they say that people don't come out, but like once every three months.
Speaker 1:And they have the Walmart right next to it.
Speaker 2:The Walmart is right next to it.
Speaker 1:They literally just walk out and it's right there.
Speaker 2:So that's what somebody mentioned in the Reddit and you know how Reddit is. Yeah, they were like no wonder the aliens want to go there, because there's Walmart right next door and it has everything you need.
Speaker 1:It was a restaurant, whataburger, so right next door and it has everything you need.
Speaker 2:it was a restaurant whataburger, all right. So right next door there is a because there's a fast food restaurant right next to it.
Speaker 1:So let me see do you think they door dash?
Speaker 2:I'm gonna be honest with you I have no idea what they do, because I mean on the youtube video.
Speaker 1:You said that. Who's a youtuber?
Speaker 2:joelle yeah, it was. Uh, it was a unique name. I'm not really sure I think it started with joe yeah, joella, or something like that plus yeah, I'm not sure something like that.
Speaker 1:We're saying it wrong. We're sorry, but there's a video that david sent me and they mentioned like one. Like they sell honey basically for a living at the pool, or whatever you want to call it yeah like the little market and they sell honey and one of the guys I want to say kids, because it's already like older he was like a computer tech type of thing.
Speaker 2:Yeah.
Speaker 1:And some people believe I guess I don't know if it's 100% true that whoever's in that group, if they have kids, I mean they just homeschool them there.
Speaker 2:Right, but that's the thing is I don't know any people there. You know what I mean. Like, it's just very confusing. Can you see this? Yeah, so this is the Walmart. We're looking at Google Maps right now and so this is the expressway right here, true. And then this is the expressway right here, true. And then this is Walmart. And so this is Texas Boulevard that I go to, and Teddy's is up here. This is the piece of land that I'm talking about, and so that's as big as I can get it. So there is a tiny little driveway and it's sunken in a little bit, and then there's these houses, but this is all just trees, and you can see the size of a car, right. So this is a big area.
Speaker 1:I mean just look at the parking lot.
Speaker 2:Yeah, that's big. I mean these are buildings. You know what I mean.
Speaker 1:Like this is these are big, it's also, like Walmart, did offer to buy that piece of land.
Speaker 2:They not only tried to buy the land, they tried to force them out, yeah, but because it's a church, they have a lot of freedoms.
Speaker 1:Right.
Speaker 2:And so they weren't able to get them out. So where's the exit? The exit's pretty far back, and so you come in and so I drive all this and go past this and then turn and that little bitty driveway which is just big enough like just one car goes in.
Speaker 2:And so I never even noticed it, because I turn here and just go right past it and so this is it, and so we should be able to get a street view right there. Oh, this one, okay, oh, this one, so that's it. Right there, so there's the Pizza Hut, and so I would drive right through here.
Speaker 1:Oh, even closer man, you see, and it's just like a wooden wall, it's not like it has bob wires right, it's just a fence it's just a fence, yeah I guess, nothing, it's not like, not even like the tallest fence you can get right it's just a regular fence. Yes, it's a regular fence, it's nothing.
Speaker 2:You can go down too fancy, I guess.
Speaker 1:But also, if they're not selling honey, how are they going to get a better fence?
Speaker 2:Right, I don't know why I just keep going back and forth. Anyways, so yeah, so this is the cult I. I kind of wish there was some more information.
Speaker 1:Or if we can get someone from inside the house.
Speaker 2:I wonder, if we mailed them something, if they would mail us back.
Speaker 1:What do you think this is? The 1800s?
Speaker 2:Hey, I mail stuff To who. I mailed a box to my friend Lauren, like this week Of what Stuff I got in Mexico.
Speaker 1:Yeah, you see, I'm not not asking again.
Speaker 2:That's enough for me I mean I, I do tiktok, so I get. I use the mail quite a bit well, they mail you stuff or whenever you order shit from amazon but like, not letters, like yeah my deepest condolence, or what's it?
Speaker 2:called condolences yeah, no, I don't. I don't write letters like that I used to. I'm. I'm old enough that we used to have pen pals back in the day. That's true oh yeah, you were talking to inmates no, not inmates like I would meet girls and I would write letters and they would write me back. Inmates, no, like girls, like real life girls.
Speaker 1:Inmates.
Speaker 2:No, not in jail, Not in jail girls. So I have a feeling that one of our listeners has a lot more information about this.
Speaker 1:There has to be someone that knows what's going on inside.
Speaker 2:And so if anybody knows, hit us up on Facebook.
Speaker 1:Join the cult, and let us know I don't have time for it. To be honest, if I had time, I'd probably join.
Speaker 2:I feel like I've already been in enough cults.
Speaker 1:You've been exploited enough. I don't need to already been in enough cults. You've been exploited enough.
Speaker 2:I don't need to be in any more cults, but if any of y'all have free time or if you're bored, yeah, because we don't want to do it.
Speaker 1:Yeah.
Speaker 2:Be safe if you do it, and then don't blame us. Send us a letter.
Speaker 1:Or to our disclosed location.
Speaker 2:Yeah, We'll find it, mail it to the undisclosed location. Right, that's what we should name our offices. When we finally get to the point Undisclosed location and then our address.
Speaker 1:Address Right, right, right right right now.
Speaker 2:Well, we do want to thank you for listening and, um bearing with us as we stumbled through this episode. Yeah, going on vacation, so we're kind of doing three episodes at once, um, but we will be back and we hope to hear from you if you have any story ideas I'm staying here.
