  • Alien Contact and High Strangeness
    Feb 23 2026

    This week I'm talking to Darren King the Exoacademian.

    Bio

    Darren King is a consciousness educator, public speaker, researcher, and podcaster, who aims to both explore and expand the parameters of human consciousness. Darren’s focus on human potential is centrally connected not only to our innate, evolutionary drive towards an ever-expanding, emergent awareness driven by curiosity, but also with an eye towards the daunting global challenges we all face, which will require a new “center of gravity” for “human-beingness” to be adequately addressed.

    The many questions pertinent to this overarching pursuit that Darren is actively engaged in include: Who are we? What other forms of intelligence surround and interact with us? What innate abilities have we let lay dormant and undeveloped within the modern mythos defined under Western civilization? What aspects of reality have we ignored and left unexplored in our race towards a left-brain driven, technological society focused solely on “objective” truth as narrowly defined according to the dictates of the physicalist paradigm? And finally, in light of revelations around psi phenomena, contact with non-conventional (sometimes non or quasi-physical) entities, near-death and out-of-body experiences, and the implications of quantum mechanics, what can we say of the ultimate nature of reality?

    Darren is the founder of Essence of Being, an initiative designed to help equip humanity to meet the coming evolutionary nexus with a transformed identity rooted in a shared sense of purpose and belonging. This overarching mission is served through in-depth, immersive programs crafted to help people transition from a narrow, “siloed-mind” perspective, to a more robust, heart-centered, generative and interconnected view, positioned to perceive, understand and respond to personal and collective challenges in a timely, comprehensive manner, with the aim of being in service to the greatest good.

    Darren serves as an advisor to the John Mack Institute, whose overarching aim is to “foster interdisciplinary initiatives that examine the nature of reality and the ways in which humanity’s understanding of it influences the condition of all life on earth”. Darren’s nuanced thinking and articulate reflections on the Contact phenomenon have earned him respect and a large, dedicated audience. His ongoing research aims to “connect the dots” between the Contact phenomenon and related topics such as near-death experiences (NDEs), out-of-body experiences (OBEs), and psi phenomena, ultimately keying in on what these data may reveal about the nature of reality itself.

    Darren is regularly featured on a variety of shows and podcasts, exploring these various interrelated matters. Darren’s work also includes both Point of Convergence, which, as the name implies, is a podcast examining the uncanny connection between a variety of so-called “contact modalities” and non-ordinary state experiences, and Liminal Phrames, a conversational podcast discussing the history of UFOs/UAP and the Contact phenomenon, and their intersection with ancient human lore and religious history.

  • A Sighting of the Alien Hive?
    Feb 17 2026

    This week I'm reading from Bruce Rapuano's book 'Dominion Lost: A Scientist's Own Alien Encounters'.

    This bombshell nonfiction book, recently discussed by the author with George Knapp on Coast to Coast AM, is the only first-person account to date of UFO alien abductions authored by a mainstream American scientist. The author, who has multiple degrees in neuroscience, goes on the record regarding his incredible and fascinating experiences with UFO close encounters, including a very close encounter during which he was abducted from a group of eight other witnesses, interactions with alien beings and an unexplained nasal implant of specific structure all of which were recalled without regressive hypnosis. Also riveting are the author's experiences with short humanoid beings that are described in captivating detail to reveal all the ways that aliens control human behavior during the abduction process.

    Even more amazing is the fact that this book is the first to explain : how the implants that are frequently reported by abductees work to analyze and influence the activity of the human brain. Exactly how the “grey aliens” were genetically reengineered from our early hominin ancestors. Precisely how the UFO propulsion system creates gravitational wave energy.

    At the same time, relying on his professional background, insight from his personal abduction experiences and numerous cited scientific articles from peer-reviewed journals, the author demonstrates that the ultrasophisticated technical capabilities exhibited by the alien visitors to our planet are more than plausible. They represent a logical extrapolation of current human theoretical and applied science.

    Moreover, the powerful evidence of such technology which has existed for more than 60 years, especially with respect to incredibly advanced propulsion systems for interstellar space travel and implanted devices that are likely instruments of mind control, proves that the aliens are here. Potentially breakthrough scientific innovations underlying these highly advanced alien capabilities are revealed and clearly explained, making the book a de facto whistleblower report on the subject of UFO’s and alien abduction. More importantly, this book is a wake-up call to our species to finally accept the reality that we are now sharing our world with technologically superior alien beings. This new reality must be addressed immediately.

  • Men in Black: Hidden Enforcers of the UFO Phenomenon
    Feb 10 2026

    The Men in Black (MIB) have haunted UFO history for decades, not as sightings in the sky, but as the figures who arrive after the sighting. This episode unpacks one of the most disturbing and persistent mysteries in UFO lore: who the Men in Black are, what they want, and why they appear whenever witnesses get too close to the truth.

    The story begins in the early 1950s, at the dawn of modern UFO research. Civilian investigators, rather than governments, were the first to collect reports of flying saucers and close encounters. Among them was Albert K. Bender, founder of the International Flying Saucer Bureau. His work came to an abrupt halt after he claimed three dark-suited men visited his home, warning him to stop investigating UFOs. That encounter became the foundation of the Men in Black legend, suggesting that some powerful force was actively monitoring and controlling what people could know about extraterrestrial activity.

    From there, the episode explores how journalist and paranormal investigator John A. Keel expanded the Men in Black narrative beyond simple government agents. Through his research into UFO waves, the Mothman sightings in Point Pleasant, and other cases of “high strangeness,” Keel connected the Men in Black to a broader, more unsettling pattern of unexplained phenomena. In this framework, MIB are not just secret officials, they are part of a larger, possibly non-human system interacting with reality itself.

    A major question addressed in the episode is whether the Men in Black are truly linked to the government. Many witnesses report official-sounding warnings, black unmarked cars, and threats tied to national security. Yet countless encounters describe behavior that feels wrong: strange credentials, unnatural speech, emotionless expressions, and an apparent lack of understanding of ordinary human life. These details raise the possibility that the Men in Black only appear to be government agents, using authority as a disguise.

    The phenomenon is also examined on a global scale. While MIB stories originated in the United States, similar encounters have been reported in the UK, Europe, Australia, and South America. This worldwide pattern suggests that the Men in Black are not tied to any single nation — but instead to UFO activity itself.

    The episode then delves into the creepiest Men in Black cases ever reported. These include visitors who seem to materialize rather than arrive, encounters where MIB knew private information they could not possibly have obtained, and witnesses who describe them as physically and emotionally “off,” as if mimicking humans rather than being human.

    Finally, the episode tackles the ultimate question: are the Men in Black aliens, hybrids, interdimensional beings, or a hidden enforcement arm guarding the truth about UFOs? While definitive proof remains elusive, the Men in Black continue to be one of the most chilling and compelling aspects of the UFO mystery, the dark-suited gatekeepers of a reality humans may not be ready to fully see.

  • Alien Abduction Pattern of Contact and Control
    Feb 9 2026

    This week I'm talking to Steve Neill about his book 'But Something is There' and his youtube channel 'Breaking the silence'.

    But Something is There is Steve Neill's journey through a life time of dealing with the unknown. Some call the experience "The Visitors" some call it abduction by aliens. The truth is we don't know what it is, But Something is There.

  • The Cash–Landrum UFO Encounter
    Feb 4 2026

    In this episode I am talking about the Cash–Landrum UFO encounter.

    Some encounters fade into obscurity; others refuse to be neatly filed away. Cash–Landrum is very much in the latter category. It sits at the intersection of several larger themes the podcast regularly explores: the limits of official transparency, the frailty of the human body in the face of the unknown, and the way extraordinary experiences can fracture the boundary between private memory and public controversy.

    This happens in the broader historical and cultural context of late-Cold War America, a period when military activity, experimental technology, and deep public mistrust of government secrecy all swirled together. This atmosphere shaped both the interpretation of the case and the response it received, highlighting how easily genuine fear can be dismissed as imagination when it does not fit comfortably within accepted narratives.

    The episode also considers the unusual role that military presence, real or disputed, has played in shaping public perception of the case. Rather than offering sensational claims, I reflect on why the absence of clear answers can sometimes be more disturbing than the presence of them, and how official silence can deepen mystery rather than resolve it.

    Interwoven throughout is a broader meditation on why we are drawn to stories like this at all. Is it the possibility that we are not alone? The fear that powerful forces operate beyond democratic accountability? Or something more personal, the idea that an ordinary life can be suddenly disrupted by something utterly inexplicable?

    The Cash–Landrum case becomes a lens through which to examine how society treats those who report the impossible, and how truth can become entangled with politics, law, and reputation.

    The episode closes not with conclusions, but with an open question. Whether one views the case as evidence of something beyond our world, a by-product of secret military activity, or a deeply contested mystery, it remains a story that resists closure.

    For those interested in the deeper currents beneath headline-grabbing sightings, this episode offers a thoughtful, unhurried exploration of a case that continues to challenge our assumptions about power, truth, and the unknown.

  • Aliens and the Paranormal
    Feb 2 2026

    This week I'm talking to Kristin of the Somesmist Youtube channel about her ET contact experiences.

    From early childhood through adulthood, Kristin had recurring experiences she perceived as paranormal. However, when encounters with “Tall Greys” began to coincide with close-range UFO sightings, episodes of missing time, and difficulties with conception, she was finally able to connect the dots and conclude that she was being targeted.

  • The 1561 Nuremberg Sky Battle
    Jan 27 2026

    In this episode, we step gently back through time to the early morning of April 14, 1561, when the people of Nuremberg witnessed one of the most mysterious UFO events ever recorded. As the sun rose over the old city, the sky itself seemed to come alive with strange shapes, glowing objects, and moving forms that looked as though they were interacting, colliding, and battling above the rooftops. What should have been an ordinary morning became something unforgettable, leaving behind a story that has echoed quietly through the centuries.

    At the heart of this episode is the remarkable printed account created by Hans Glaser, a local printer who documented what the citizens saw in both words and images. His broadsheet shows a sky filled with spheres, crosses, rods, and dark shapes surrounding the rising sun, with objects appearing to fall from the sky beyond the city walls. It is not a myth, not a legend passed down by word of mouth, but a real historical record produced and shared in the city itself. There is something deeply moving about the fact that ordinary people, living quiet daily lives, suddenly found themselves witnessing something so vast and unexplained above them.

    This episode does not rush to explain what happened. Instead, it sits with the mystery, allowing the story to exist as it is, a moment in history when human understanding met something it could not easily name. For the people of 1561, there was no language for flying machines, unknown intelligence, or visitors from elsewhere. There was only the sky, the light, the movement, and the strange sense that something important had taken place beyond human control.

    This episode invites the listener to slow down and imagine that morning as if standing quietly in the streets of Nuremberg, looking upward with the people who witnessed it. It is less about answers and more about presence, memory, and wonder. About the feeling of seeing something that doesn’t fit into the world you understand. The Nuremberg UFO event remains one of history’s most haunting and beautiful mysteries, not because it is loud or dramatic, but because it is quiet, unresolved, and enduring. A reminder that sometimes the most powerful stories are the ones that simply ask us to look up, and listen.
