  • 654 - Food Laws & Health Phoenix Lights

    Attorney Scott Tips is the President and General Counsel for the world's oldest health freedom organization – the National Health Federation, and for 40 years, he has been specializing in food and drug law. In the first half, he shared updates on Codex Alimentarius – an international body where standards and guidelines are set for what we eat and drink, as well as the problems of soil depletion, and how we are being drenched in pesticides. Tips reported that just two meat processing companies now control 85% of the business and have squeezed out small and medium-sized producers. This is a trend being seen throughout the food industry, as well in the vitamin supplement business, where corporations have increasingly bought out smaller companies, he lamented.
    The consolidation of the supplement industry has led to a decrease in quality and potency, according to Tips, and profits have been prioritized over the original mission of the acquired companies to improve people's health. Regarding Codex Alimentarius, he suggested that their standards for food safety and agriculture are influenced by big agriculture and pharmaceutical companies, leading to harmful products being shipped globally despite regional concerns. At their meetings, he argued against the use of veterinary drugs like Zilpaterol, which increase the weight and musculature of cattle but are not healthy for the animals. Tips also revealed how Monsanto/Bayer (the makers of the herbicide Roundup) are writing & backing bills in state legislatures to stop people from suing them over harmful health effects from their products.

    In the latter half, author and ufologist Dr. Lynne Kitei joined us on the 27th anniversary of the Phoenix Lights, which is deemed to be the most witnessed and important mass sighting in modern history. On the night of March 13, 1997, a variety of craft were seen over a 12-hour period in Arizona, Nevada, New Mexico, and California, including a large triangular shape said to be a mile-wide or even longer by a considerable number of witnesses. In fact, according to some data, one of the craft was estimated to be eight miles wide, she marveled. The total number of witnesses is thought to include thousands of people, she said, including police officers, and celebrities like Alice Cooper, and Kurt Russell (who was piloting a private plane that night). "These massive craft or these formations of light...seemed to be attached to something [and as] people would look up...it would block out the stars," she detailed, adding that the phenomenon was totally silent.
    On her website, Kitei presents animations depicting the "parade of different craft and multiple orb formations attached to and separate from these craft." She also offers a survey for people to share their personal experience of the Phoenix Lights and related sightings. The survey results have so far shown that most of the Phoenix Light witnesses reported profound positive effects after the sighting-- what Kitei referred to as a kind of enlightenment or awakening. Intriguingly, many of the experiencers reported "encounters with some type of non-human intelligent being...both physical and non-physical, such as orbs and ghostly figures, and they communicate with telepathy."

  • 653 - Libertarian Views Father Amorth, Exorcist

    James P. Gray was a trial judge in Orange County, California, starting in 1983, and the 2012 Libertarian candidate for Vice President. In the first half, he shared his views as a Libertarian, and weighed in on such issues as public education, homelessness, healthcare, taxes, and drug laws. Libertarians, he noted, believe that "you should be able to live your own life as you choose, as long as you don't wrongly impair other people to do the same thing." Now working as a private mediator in resolving disputes, he lamented that many in society have lost the ability or even interest in talking and working with each other to address and resolve issues, particularly of a political nature. One of the most critical issues facing America is that many public schools are failing our children, especially in lower economic areas, he commented. Parents should be able to choose where their government money will be spent for the education of their children, and that will bring competition back into the school systems, Gray suggested.
    He spoke in favor of an idea popularized by economist Milton Friedman-- negative income tax, where people who make very little or no money would receive a stipend yet would be incentivized to work rather than collect welfare. Regarding healthcare, Gray does not believe the government should be involved in implementing programs, as this has caused the medical system to be mired in costly bureaucracy. He thinks there should be vouchers for people who can't afford it, but they should choose how to use them rather than through a government vendor. Gray also discussed the problem of homelessness in cities like Los Angeles, and highlighted the need for more mental health facilities and the challenges faced by veterans in particular.

    With a master's degree in religion from the University of Chicago, Michael Lichens focuses his work on overlooked aspects of spiritual life. In the latter half, he discussed the Catholic Church's most celebrated exorcist, the late Father Gabriel Amorth, how he became an exorcist, and some of the intense cases he was involved with. Amorth, who was based in Rome, conducted some 70,000 exorcisms over the years, Lichens estimated, though some of these were on the same person (the documentary, The Devil and Father Amorth, depicts him performing his ninth attempt to exorcise a woman named Cristina). One of the reasons Amorth became so well-known was his willingness to work with the media, he noted. One person Amorth worked with was said to be possessed by a staggering 1,000 demons, and in some cases, he worked with individuals for years trying to free them from demons.
    Lichens recounted how Father Amorth was initially reluctant to be an exorcist, but after six years of training, he began to take on solo cases in the 1980s. The Church would always try to rule out natural or medical explanations before conducting an exorcism on someone. Speaking of supernatural occurrences during an exorcism, Lichens detailed how the Father witnessed levitations on occasion, as well as had a direct encounter with Lucifer and was spit upon, with the spit turning into nails as it hit him. He also experienced freezing rooms, actually seeing ice form on the windows. A spiritual protege of Amorth was Padre Pio, who bled the stigmata in his hands, battled with demons, and was said to communicate with angels. Amorth said he sometimes felt the spirit of Padre Pio (who died in 1968) assisting him in exorcisms.

  • 652 - Odysseus Lunar Mission Science of Aging & Longevity

    Richard C. Hoagland is the principal investigator and founder of The Enterprise Mission, as well as the vision and the voice of The Other Side of Midnight. In the first half, he discussed images from Odysseus, a recent unmanned American lunar mission. According to Hoagland, the new lunar mission's close-ups dramatically confirm his decades-old "ancient, artificial structures on the Moon model" that he first proposed at the National Press Club in March 1996. The Washington Post even published a "hit piece" 28 years ago on the press event. He suggested that the reason many private and non-US missions to the Moon have run into problems is because they are literally crashing into the glass dome, which he claims exists all over the Moon but is denser in certain regions.
    The dome, Hoagland continued, could be billions of years old and has been battered by a stream of interplanetary micrometeorites that, over eons, have left holes in it. In image #2 that he sent us, he explained that you can see the sun shining through the "incredible geometry of the glass dome" as the light bounces off of it, creating a refraction. He has concluded that a renegade group in and outside of NASA wants to reveal the truth about these structures on the Moon, and that the recent Odysseus mission functioned as a kind of Trojan horse for that goal. There are ruins throughout the solar system, he added, and it will be fascinating to eventually learn who placed them there and if they are related to our species.

    Venki Ramakrishnan shared the 2009 Nobel Prize in Chemistry for uncovering the structure of the ribosome and runs Ramakrishnan Lab. In the latter half, he discussed the science of mortality and aging, the giant strides being made in the field, and the possibility that we may someday be able to extend our lifespan. The oldest person that ever lived (that we have reliable records for) was a French woman named Jeanne Calment, who died at the age of 122 in 1997. Aging is the accumulation of chemical damage to our molecules and cells over time, he explained, and it starts gradually with small defects; these lead to medium-sized ones that manifest as the morbidities of old age, leading eventually to the system-wide failure that is death. Someone like Calment may have an extraordinary ability to fend off or repair the body's defects that come with aging. For instance, as we age, the risk of cancer goes up, he noted.
    Scientists are now asking if it's possible to extend our longevity past 120. Ramakrishnan believes we may have to alter our natural biology to achieve this, which could be a challenging proposition. He reported that larger species tend to live longer on average-- for instance, a blue whale or Greenland shark will live 400 years, and other whales live 200 to 300 years. He cited that stress can take a toll on a person, while the "trinity of health" is the combination of a good, moderate diet, exercise, and adequate sleep. Sleep deprivation, he pointed out, increases the risk of many diseases of aging, including cardiovascular problems, obesity, cancer, and Alzheimer's. This may be because during sleep the body performs various repair mechanisms.

  • 651 - Searching for Bigfoot Open Lines

    Jen Kruse is the founder of She-Squatchers, an all-female team searching for Bigfoot in the Midwest. She joined Connie Willis (info) in the first half of the show to discuss their investigations and experiences. Kruse explained that prior to 2015 she “didn’t know anything about Bigfoot.” She was doing a paranormal radio show at the time, however, and asked cryptozoologist Loren Coleman if he would do an interview for the show after meeting him at the Minnesota ParaCon. That was when she first learned of Bigfoot reports from Minnesota. It was Coleman, according to Kruse, who first encouraged her to take out a group of female researchers, “without men, dogs, or guns.” She said Coleman told her that most of the Sasquatch seen by witnesses were young males “probably out doing things they’re not supposed to be doing,” and that was when they were seen. “He thought these younger male Bigfoot would be a little bit more inclined to get in a little close to some ladies in the forest, if they didn’t have anything threatening,” she claimed, noting the aforementioned “men, dogs, (and) guns.” By the end of the show, she said, she was convinced and ready to give it a try. So, she began putting together a team.
    On their first outing, she said, they drove to an area with reported sightings on a Native reservation in northern Minnesota. Once there Kruse, who told Willis she is, “also an energy worker… (and) a reiki master teacher,” who can, “feel energy on a physical level,” began to try to “tune into the energy of Bigfoot.” In the report they were following up on a Native fisherman had been intimidated by a Bigfoot following his movements from the shore, but she didn’t believe the dock they’d found could be the correct one. So, she and her crew drove around until she, “again… asking to feel the energy of Bigfoot,” began to “feel a vibration.” Though they didn’t see anything in the daytime that indicated Bigfoot activity, she dropped a GPS pin in her map and decided they would come back after dark to investigate. On that return, Kruse noted, her colleague not only saw red eyes, but they both saw “the heat signature of somebody standing there.” A somebody, she said, who was human shaped, but didn’t appear to be wearing any clothes based on the thermal signature they could see. But, when she dropped the camera briefly to look for the red eyes that her colleague Marla had seen, she wasn’t able to find the heat signature again. It was only later, after gaining more experience with thermal imaging technology, and realizing that clothing gives a distinct signature, that she realized the being they had seen on that first outing couldn’t have been clothed. Later, she said, after attempting to emulate the whoops they heard on paranormal programs, they were startled – not by a vocal response, but by what sounded like a large “something walking.” That was enough to drive them out of the woods that evening, she said. But not enough to drive them away forever. When they went back to follow-up, because she drove separately from the others and couldn’t get them to go into the woods, she chose to go into the woods alone. But, she said, she cut that solo outing short when she realized she was almost in a trance-like state, and could hear a voice in her head, calling her by name to venture deeper into the woods. Then, a second voice, this one screaming in her head, told her, “don’t go into the fairy ring. They’ll take you and never bring you back.” Other events, too, she said, have blurred the line between Bigfoot as a purely biological being and a more spiritual being, included snippets of speech heard in an archaic form of the Ojibwe language that she was only able to partially understand.

  • 650 - Noah's Flood Mysteries Spirits & Negative Thoughts

    President of Genesis Apologetics, Dan Biddle, Ph.D., is the executive producer of a new film about Noah's Ark and the biblical flood. In the first half, he shared his view about what happened during this worldwide cataclysmic flood, culled from history, science, and his biblical interpretation. He noted that the Roman-Jewish historian Josephus reported that people would wear amulets and bring back relics from wood from Noah's Ark. However, the Ark has probably since been destroyed in post-Ice Age flooding, or perhaps it's still hidden under sheets of ice, Biddle remarked. Based on measurements described in the Bible, the Ark was a kind of barge, about 500 feet long and depending on different interpretations was built somewhere between 4400 and 5200 years ago, he said.
    During the Great Flood, there was torrential rain for 40 days, and "the fountains of the great deep were open for 150 days," which is when the ocean ribs were breaching and the continents were pushed apart, he continued. Along with the pairs of animals brought aboard the Ark, the only humans were Noah, his wife, and his three sons and their three wives, and it was from these eight people that the planet was repopulated, he asserted. The Bible, he added, stated that Noah (said to live to age 950) was the only righteous one in his generation, and he took 55-75 years to ready the Ark. The flood was God's plan to reset humanity, which had become infused with an evil nature, he explained.

    In the latter half, emotional clearing expert, practicing exorcist, and professional psychic Jeffrey Seelman discussed his work on the power of negative thoughts and the nature of our thoughts; how they are shaped, how they affect ourselves and others, and how they can be easily hijacked by bad actors and negative spirits. People aren't taught to manage or watch their thoughts, so sometimes they can get out of control, he pointed out. This is when we might do things we wouldn't normally do or get angry out of proportion to an incident. Seelman recommended that we practice "shaping" our thoughts, which makes them stronger by directing energy to them. By looking at our thoughts, we can determine very quickly if they are positive and if what we're about to say is going to be constructive to somebody else, he noted.
    While our thoughts can be affected negatively by those around us and in the media, we are also susceptible to influence from negative spirits (deceased humans), as well as demonic spirits, powerful entities that "like to break in to our emotional thoughts in order to amplify them with feelings like rage and anger, to throw them completely out of control," he maintained. Negative and demonic spirits communicate with a natural form of telepathy, he explained, but we may not be aware that certain negative thoughts and feelings are coming from them rather than ourselves. To protect from this, he suggested strengthening one's energy field or aura, which would make a person less likely to be swayed by a negative spirit. He also talked about how individuals can become temporarily possessed, such as when they black out from alcohol or substance abuse.
