Chapter 1: What is the Russian Sleep Experiment and how does it relate to TikTok content?

3.099 - 25.626 Host

Have you ever heard of the Russian sleep experiment? It's a fake fictional story. It's a creepypasta where five subjects, they're prisoners of war. They're given the option. You can take part in our sleep study where you will be awake for 30 full days. You don't get an inkling of sleep for 30 days, a month. And if you survive, if you make it to the end, You can be free.

25.927 - 46.76 Host

We're not going to hold you prisoner anymore. You can walk out of here and nobody is going to hurt you. It's a singular month in exchange for the rest of your life. Why would you not take it? The experimenters, the researchers, they develop this special gas that's going to prevent the subjects from falling asleep. And the first five days, everything goes well. They hardly complain.

46.78 - 63.467 Host

They're like, this is the best thing ever. We're going to be free in 25 days. After the first five days... The subjects start exhibiting severe paranoia. They stop talking to each other. They're only companions in the entire study. They turn on each other. They start whispering into the microphones for their researchers.

63.887 - 78.893 Host

They believe if they turn on their fellow subjects, they can win the trust of the experimenters that are testing on them and guarantee their freedom. Nine days in, one of the subjects does not stop screaming for three hours straight. He is screaming until he tears his vocal cords.

79.333 - 97.8 Host

And long story short, by the halfway mark, all of the windows that the experimenters are looking into, they're covered in feces. They tell the subjects on the intercom, we are opening the chamber to test the microphone. Step away from the door and lie flat on the floor or you will be shot. Compliance will earn one of you your immediate freedom.

99.142 - 117.975 Host

They just hear a singular voice call back out to them. We no longer want to be freed. By the end of it, the researchers go in and they got to get the subjects out. They find once they open the door, the subjects have started tearing off their own flesh, consuming it. The researchers are providing the medical care that's needed to save them.

118.015 - 140.511 Host

But in the end, the subjects, they all want to go back into that chamber. They all want more of that stimulant gas. The same thing that ruined them, turned them into these violent zombie-like creatures. They want that gas. They don't want to sleep. So the experimenters ask, why would you possibly want something that destroyed you? They say, well, I must remain awake.

141.57 - 164.976 Host

It's an addicting idea, the theory, the concept of what happens to humans if they don't sleep. There are content creators that have been trying to replicate that feeling. TikTok Live being one of the platforms. It's called Disturbed Sleep Livestreams. This is a whole niche of TikTok Livestreams. A camera is set up and it's live streaming a tiny little bunker-esque room with a tiny bed.

165.436 - 183.231 Host

There are neon lights typically everywhere. It's not the type of environment that you're gonna catch some good quality sleep. You have the live streamer on the bed, and then there's this board behind them. And this live streamer, I mean, their eyes are closed. They're acting like nobody else is in the room with them. It feels oddly voyeuristic and illegal.

Chapter 2: Who is Ash Trevino and why is she controversial on TikTok?

4564.78 - 4586.058 Host

it said that he was also very involved in the girls' lives up until about a few years ago and it appears that he couldn't see the girls as much, not by his own choice, but it seems perhaps Ashley was making it very difficult for him. two years ago in 2023, the children's father ends up passing away from leukemia and Ashley does everything in her power to gain sympathy from this.

4586.558 - 4602.215 Host

this must be traumatic for her. she's known and been in this relationship with this man for the greater part of her young adult life They were high school sweethearts. But now she does have two children. They don't have their father anymore. It's really up to her to be a supportive mother so that they can grieve.

4602.735 - 4622.486 Host

And it's very hard to take her emotions seriously when she tries so hard to make it about herself. She states that she's not going to his funeral, but it's speculated that it's because she wasn't welcome there. She tries to make it seem like she's just emotionally not able to. She tells everybody that she might take a mental health break and she will be back. When she'll be back is unclear.

0

4622.686 - 4643.501 Host

May it be sooner? May it be later? Maybe it be never, right? Well, she does come back the very next day because galaxies don't just send themselves into the ether. She does not, however, pass up the chance to not make this all about her. She says things like, that could have been me. He didn't have to go. He wasn't doing anything. That could have been me, but it wasn't.

0

4644.323 - 4663.992 Host

I don't know how that applies. He did pass from leukemia. I'm not sure why she's even saying stuff like this. But it wasn't. And I feel that for my baby so much. I really do. And again, this is after her kids have asked her repeatedly to not talk about their father on live because they're grieving. They don't want to hear this. They don't want this business out there.

4664.433 - 4682.054 Host

And she says, it breaks my heart when my babies just say, I wish my dad was here. I wish my dad was here. Thank you for the hand heart. Because she gets a donation. Everything does happen for a reason. So she's reading someone's comment that says everything happens for a reason. Everything does happen for a reason. I'm a firm believer in that.

4682.554 - 4702.658 Host

This is a pretty niche pet peeve of mine that I don't even know if I should be saying. But when someone passes away and people try to tell each other everything happens for a reason, I do understand the intention behind it. And in certain situations, maybe it's acceptable. But it's this weird feeling of this person's death is to further the plot for everybody else type of energy.

4702.678 - 4724.817 Host

What do you mean everything happens for a reason? It's just kind of... I don't find it to be the most sensitive thing to say when someone has a passing in their life, especially the way Ashley says it. She says, I'm a firm believer in everything happens for a reason. That's why I'm saying maybe it took this tragedy for me to open up my eyes to see what the pain my babies would feel.

4726.969 - 4748.452 Host

No, someone did not pass away from leukemia for your character development. That's not even a coherent sentence, Ashley. But she tries further to make this about her. And I genuinely think that she thinks that this man's death is just part of her character development, character arc. And she has no character arc. It is just a perpetual decline. Nevertheless...
