Garden Of Doom

Thomas & I welcome in our first reigning world champion, MLW Heavyweight champion Mads Atrosity Krule Krugger. The black hlove of Contra Unit. Sure we chit chat about wrestling and all his many names. We make sure to establish that he and Thomas hit each other very hard. We establish Krule is producing mini Krules to establish a Krule dynasty. We might have broken some news. A spoiler: CW Anderson isn't dead. That one is free. You have to listen for the rest. No, I did not ask about Baba Thunder.We talk about food, protests, scratchy voices, Alien Earth, ghost stories and UFO's. Did I make a new friend? Maybe. I didn't not make a new friend. 

This show was to be about King Solomon and the ring and the demons. And it is. But we covered so much more that we may have to do a part two. Who was Solomon? When was Solomon? What led to Solomon?Well, that takes us back to Adam and Eve. Our old friend, Lilith. A whole lot on The Satan. A touch of Cain. Some parts on Moses. A whole bunch on angels, Archangels, Fallen Angels (Nephilim). Bethsheba, Ben Yohada, The ring, other rings, mountains as prisons, underground lairs, and the Scarecrow. Oh yeah, some Temple construction aspects. A dash of numerology. A touch of magic. Plenty of Yeshiva Kabbalah. And discussion on letters and numbers. You really don't want to miss this episode. 

Ricky Reyes is a veteran of Ring of Honor among other promotions. In fact, he was CM Punk's roommate and assumed a lease for ole' Chick Magnet. Yes, we will discuss that. But most importantly to me, he was a henchman wrestler working for the very corrupt Dario Cueto, while also being an undercover cop infiltrating Dario's odios organization. We get a unique PJ story, We also discuss Ricky's career, what's he up to, and what he's about. 

Aaron Hynes is an explorer, researcher, former resident of Peru, tour guide, future resident of Peru, and the host of Breaking Ancient News. Aaron has a fascination with ancient civilizations and the unanswered gaps left by accepted archeology. While we spend most of our time discussing the Andean civilizations, we're not limited to that region. Hynes believes there was a root culture that harnessed certain technologies that have been lost to time. We discuss what the people of Peru told him they believe and what their histories tell. We visit some olf "friends" such as Vera Cocha and Uriel and Prometheus. 

We are joined by author and researcher Patrick Chouinard, who discusses his work on the Lost Giants of Atlantis. Let's get this out of the way: he doesn't believe in a physical place named Atlantis. He uses the common word as a placeholder for an advanced civilization lost to history. He also uses the word Aryan, but not in the corrupted way that's become the common use. Rather, the ancient use which simply traces the Iranic peoples from Asia, throughout Eurasia, the Near East, and beyond and very clearly the full spectrum of skin colors.Patrick's book has an excellent summary of many myths and lore from around the world dealing with giants and persons of great impact (not necessarily of enormous height).This is a nice companion to the prior episode which dealth primarily with the archeology. This episode deals primarily with the lore around beings. 

The Bayou Geek (singular), Maximus returns to discuss some light fare conspiracies. Mainly Mandela Effect items. Some I've heard and had. Some are new to me. This was mostly fun and games until I blasphemed. Repeatedly. Oh well. I'm a heretic. Was there a werwolf themed monster cereal? Would you rather be a werewolf or a vampire? Are aliens walking among us? And those silly bears.It's in here. 

We're back. But it's not clear when. It's season 2 of Dark and we're untangling the triquenta knot over at least 5 time zones and parellel stories. Between the three of us, maybe we got it right. 

Liz Entin lost her father several years ago. That led her down a path of researching and exploration. And despite being dubious of the existence of any God, she does believe there is an afterlife. This show is our discussion,Liz has written two books, with a third coming, both with the title WTF Just Happened as the top line title. She has a podcast of the same name. 

I was requested to weigh in on the show "Dark". The problem was, I hadn't watched it. The lesser problem was I didn't want to do a solo show on a three season show. So, one of the suggesters was recruited and he, in turn, recruited another. Thus, three Lynbrook, NY public school kids - now AARP members - reunited for the first time to review the German mystery box show "Dark",Note: There are spoilers. Constantly. Like every aspect will be spoiled. We might not be right, but we are revealing everything as we understood the show.This limited series is aiming to cover 1 season per podcast episode. 1 for 1 so far. This is season 1.Your intrepid host is yours truly. And our guests are returning guest and artist, DIna Levy. Also known as the person called before me in attendance for like 10 years. Also, we are joined by loyal listener, musician. and semi retired smart guy, Joey Restivo. His credits include actually visiting me once in Baltimore. The outro music is courtesy of Pre War Yardsale.

The Red Line podcast's, Mike Hilliard, re-enters the Garden to discuss some oddities in certain borders. There are exclaves and enclaves throughout the world. Some have been with us so long, they confuse us as to their status as a State or otherwise. They often are points of contention, simmering or active conflicts, and a cause of wars. We go over some of the better known ones. But the fun part, is going over some of the lesser known ones. Although I suppose that depends where you are from.We also review some of the political and military issues in situ.And because Mike knows me so well, he knew we'd stumble into South America and by any pretense, I'd get him to discuss Venezuala. And did not disappoint.

Yes, we do talk about Raja Jackson, but only a little and mostly due to the recent developments. Mostly, we talk about fun stuff. Like how Aleister Black made Doug sad. Like what did Mr. Thomas do for his summer vacation. Like how Mr. T is getting some action cards. Like what do both guys like to eat and will they have an eating contest in Cali. Most importantly, what does The Epic and me have in common? You'll laugh. You'll cry, You'll enjoy the whole thing. My grade: F. Why? Because I failed to ask what day of wrestling school did he have to learn the Rikishi dance.

We welcome back in Prof. Jon F. White from Crecganford to discuss the historic mythological evoluation of dragons. When did dragons grow into Smog from basically an oversized winged lizard?We trace the stories of the past and try to apply them to arenas we all recognize. How did serpents turn into dragons? But many of these serpents were enormous. Size of the primordial waters of the universe big. Encircling the world big. Making up all the bodies of water on Earth big. A beast that a hero and/or god needed to slay big. Is the snake is Eden related? Is my latest latest latest obsession - Ophiuchus - related? Jon entertains some of my notions. He dispells some others. And he sticks to the evidence that research supports. Wait...what about fire? We got that.

Bet you thought this episode was about pizza. Nope.We welcome back Geophysicist, Dr. Jeffrey Zurek, to discuss a couple of issues on my mind. Both have very real geopolitical aspects. But we still tried to have fun.Currently, the United States is engaging in a policy that can be described as "Fortress America". Basically, an economic plan of isolationalism. Part of this is "drill baby, drill". However, we can't drill our way into eliminating petroleum imports. Why? Geology and chemistry.  The other item is what is a continent? Turns out there is international law on the subject. Nonetheless, there are activities and convenient geology and even archeogeology which could upend these accepted principles.Tune in and learn and enjoy. I know I did both.

Folks, I rarely suggest you need to listen to a prior episode, but if you're not pretty familiar with Egyptian mythology, you should seek out the prior episode or two where our guest appeared. Who's the guest? The magician, Mogg Morgan of the Mandrake. It's been a while since we visited Egypt on the show. I've learned so much since then. I've forgotten more. And I've come up with more half baked theories.But I did have some specific questions for Morgan. I may have even gotten some of those. Among them is why are Ammon and Ra one or two entities? Was Imhotep a person, people or god? Where does Thoth fit in? Did Egyptians acknowledge and "conquer" and/or assimilate gods of other civilizations? Why animal heads? Who were the Kushites and Nubians? We talk psycho pomps. We  talk Hathor. I might have gotten further away from understanding the journey of the dead, or not quite dead. Just how many administrative gods can a pantheon have? Turns out a lot. And next time we have Mogg, we get into the age of demigods and the Egyptian Nephilim. Maybe. 

Ruvimbo Samaga is an African lawyer with multiple degrees. She currently practices in Zimbabwe, her country of birth. She's achived many accolades and is a frequent speaker, consultant, alumnus of the Space Court Foundation's Lachs Moot Court competition, and has a start up related to space based technology to aid agriculture.We discuss her journey and her understanding and involvement with African interests in space. In addition to Africa's approaches to creating space programs and influencing space policy and regulation on an international basis.Of course I talk about Bond villains. Of course we talk about treaties and international law and some of my greatest hits. But we mostly focus on Samaga's insights and experience. And the Garden continues it's (unique?) podcast journey into exploring space interests and policies around the world.

Ikuro Kwon & I are joined by Joseph J. Alexander. Joseph has done a lot in wrestling, but it's his non wrestling activities and experiences that we focused on. Like ghost stories. Like being a totem for the dead. Like the haunting of Arena Mexico. The Warrens of "The Conjuring" fame make the show as well.We also discuss paganism and certain mythologies, philosophies and esoterica. You don't want to miss this conversation.

Is there esoteric symbolism behind some of our most cherished stories? You bet there is! Once you start, it might be hard to stop but I went through the looking glass and followed the yellow brick road to start on this search. Yes, we're exploring the esoteric aspects of Alice in Wonderland and the Wizard of Oz. In this, we touch on some minor topics like the role of institutions, systems, self and God. Small stuff. We also examine the Persephone archetype and whether it apples. What's a psycho pomp? who's "we"? I'm glad you asked. My esoteric dream tag team of the National Wrestling Alliance's Aron Stephens (FKA Damien Sandow, Aron Rex, et al) and the Reverend Doctor (going on three doctoriates) David Parry. Bring your third eyes, pineal glands and thinking caps today. We go deep. Like even the 4 cardinal directions are part of this.How could they not be? 

As any long time listener knows, I've been looking for a Marine Biologist to talk to. Well, the sea was angry that day, my friends, because I found my white whale. Alan Moore is a marine biologist and the President and Director of two accredited Marine Biology programs in Western Florida. They specialize is sharks and rays. So, of course we talked about sharks and rays. We also talk about - queue heroic music - octopusses!. Also, whales, porpoises, dolphins, seals, and lots of other animals great and small. So, don't be an old man trying to return soup at a deli. Pull out that Teistelist. It's to time to enjoy a deep dive.Epilogue: This guest revealed to me some days after the recording that he was not a Marine BIologist. He assured me he had the other requisite certifications and did run the school. He asked me not to air the show as he felt he didn't do well. I listened back and thought he was fine. But I agreed not to air the show contingent upon us re-recording limited primarily to sharks, rays and the school AND he'd send over some actual marine biologists. Neither contingency happened. I thought nothing of it until I saw him seeking guest spots on podcasts again. Judge for yourself. 

We welcome in former musician and current author, Jonni Jordyn. She's written many books, including two series'. The first involve an isolated clan, forced to venture out of their Eden into a wider world where they encounter new beats, ecologies, and other people. The Grull are an ancient clan of people that lived 10,000 years ago. Theymust find a new homeland when their village is destroyed by a flood. Theyalso have the option of seeking the home of their ancestors and livingthere, but the journey is perilous and exposes them to the dangers ofnature and the dangers of other human tribes.The Calling of the Grull: Book 1 - Kindle edition by Jordyn, Jonni. Literature &Fiction Kindle eBooks @ Amazon.com.Obviously, the Garden is interested in the research and aspects that went into the story selection. We discuss these areas. Jordyn also wrote series on magic. We talk about that as well.Jonni Jordyn was born in Oakland, California in 1957. She started writing atan early age, writing music, poetry, short stories, radio, film, and stagescripts. She didn't start writing novels until later in life, after she retired fromplaying music, and found herself travelling away from home for extendedperiods. She currently lives in Denver, Colorado.

We get a little swampy as the Garden is invaded by The Bayou Geeks!What makes them Bayou? What makes them geeks?What do we talk about? E V E R Y T H I N G. Conspiracies,a little sports, a top 5 list of best movie and sequel, a little spooky stuff. We talk a bunch about New Orleans and get a little real with stuff going on in the real world. This episode probably is a lot closer to the first months of this show; which I drrifted away from rather unintentionally, and surprisingly. Nevertheless, we're going to do stuff like this more often. I think. 

Archeologist Ed Barnhart of MayaExploration.org, among other places, rejoins us to discuss Easter Island. But before that, we discuss his theory on how certain megalithic blocks were fused together.You won't want to miss that.But the main event is Easter Island. We start with it's modern history since Western "discovery". What are the orginial settlement theories? What do the indiginous themselves say? What does the archeology say? We go into their likely societal structures, certain times of disruption, the myths about trees, just who are those giant head statues of? We talk some about mythology and concepts like "the navel of the world". Your host offers some un-vetted theories on many areas he is not qualified to theorize upon. But that's just how I do.Basically, everything you want to know about Easter Island plus more in about 90 minutes.

The origins of modern man is a bush, not a tree, and it spans somewhere between 5 to 7 million years. From some common ancestor, chimpanzees and what would become us split. To help us explore this bush, we enlisted Archeologist/Anthropologist, Professor John Hoopes. What's an Australopithecus v a Homo? Who's Lucy? Were Neatherthals giants or Judd Hirsh or neither? Were Denisovans giants or Elves or Al Leong or none? Are Humanoid reptilians possible on Earth? Are Paracus skulls a different species?All these questions and SEVEN MILLION YEARS covered.P.S. since the time of this recording, a new australopithecus variant that lived after Lucy has been identified!

Sheri Hoidra, Esquire, visits us for the second time to discuss the current status of immigration law since last we spoke a few weeks into the Trump Presidency. Unfortunately, we have learned that the landscape is still full of landmines, quicksand, and other booby traps. We have a wide ranging conversation where we frequently trade rants. There was a segment where her email would not load. The statistics she was seeking are the following:New immigration cases recorded so far in 2025 - 431,343. 735,327 cases completed in 2025.Of those, only 1.49% of immigration cases were based on alleged criminal activity.The current immigration case backlog is 3,461,637. Of these, 2,209,097 of these cases are immigrants awaiting asylum hearings.360,459 deportations have been ordered this year, which includes 50.5% 0f those being voluntary deportations.45,902 were Judge Ordered Removals. Almost 78,000 were permitted to remain in the US by Judges. Only 21.6% of represented persons were put into Removal status. 

George John Haas is the author of 3 books and a forthcoming scientific paper. The books are "The Cydonia Codex", "The Martian Codex", and his newest "The Great Architects of Mars". Haas was an artist by trade and tells his story of how he fell into the study of Mars and it's anamolous features. Humans have been photographing Mars since the 1970's and as technology and resolution improves, so do the questions increase.Haas and his team has taken an interdisciplinary approach into the study. This includes geologists, veterinarians and former government physicists. The anamolies studied and addressed include the famous face of Mars, the Martian pyraminds, the keyhole structure, and an anatomically matched (to 27 points) parrot structure. The face is half feline, half simeon. The parrot matches a maccaw. Both related to Mezoamerican mythologies tied to creation myths and a parrot that stole the sun, only to be rescued by the hero twin hunters. The Martian Maccaw also has a dart or arrow aspect consistent with the myth of the creature's demise. You aren't going to want to miss this conversation.thecydoniainstitute@hotmail.com

We welcome in Bronze Star recipient Leo Fox, who you might know from OVW, NWA and CYN. He's a man with a very interesting story of struggles and recoveries. Now he's living his dream, wrestling full time, with a wife and new child. Of course we also talk nonsense. Which leads me to tell my paranormal experience. I hate when they reverse the tables on me. Lol.  

Gordon Adams is a graduate of Columbia University and worked in the national security sector including serving at the Undersecretary level, reporting to Leon Panetta, during the Clinton administration. Adams also worked with Think Tanks and authored numerous pieces in this space.We had a wide ranging discussion touching on everything from the "Deep State" to human trafficking to Project 2025. I can't do justice to the breadth and depth by summary. I felt this episode merited consecutive publishing after Prof. DeGennaro's most recent appearance; as they are complimentary shows. However, this show was far more focused on domestic US matters and less on the military conflicts abroad. However, there is no way to disentangle past martial actions and the current climate,Adams currently is known as Abby Ross and when not involved in Theater, writes a policy based SubStack. 

Professor Patricia DeGennaro returns once again between assignments and projects to discuss the state of the world. What's going on domestically (US)? what's going on around the world? How the two are related? I can't give a decent summary. You just have to listen.

Bernie Taylor is back and this time we're tackling Homer. Specifically, the more monstruous and magical aspects of his famous journey home from Troy. We're covering the Oddysey. But paying specific attention to the monsters and some of what all of that might represent. 

Essay 1 is the first of what may become a more regular feature: me doing a solo show, talking about something I've thought a lot about but never decided upon the right way or place to present it. While most GoT shows are apolitical, that's not entirely the case. My politics and those of guests, come through at times. I consider myself a Centrist. That doesn't mean I'm in the Center of every issue. I might be extremely Conservative about many and pretty Progressive or Liberal about others. But for many issues, I recognize they are complex and no one ideology has answers. I believe most people fit in this spectrum. And within this spectrum, there is room for compromise to not have the perfect be the obstacle of the good, or just the better.I've been very up front about certain issues. It's no secret how pro-Ukraine I am in supporting it's struggle against Russia. This essay addresses one of the lies that has subsided but will likely rear it's head again: the myth that we would spend these billions at home on mental health and homelessness. The figure I recall being bandied about was 50 billion dollars. So, that is what I fixated on.What did elements of both Left and Right say? What are my thoughts on their motives?More importantly, what would it take to cure homelessness in the United States? Assuming this is some permanent solution, would 50 billion dollars come close? We use math. Then we use common sense on some inconvenient realities like Not In My Backyard and the costs of infrastructure, treatment and ongoing expenses beyond just building a glorified internment camp in some imaginary unused/unowned hectary of land.Let's see how I do. Let's see what I left out. Let's find out if you like this content. 

When we ask C The Superior to present on a topic as our apprentice host, she always brings the research. She takes me through some of the premier Anime properties and their relationship to mythologies. Primarily Shintoism. But Taoism and Chinese myths are visited. Especially when we talk about how Goku and Dragonball Z is The Monkey King and Journey to the East!Along the way, there are the usual diversions and meanderings. Including a restatement on kung fu witches built like Baywatch in school girl uniforms. Do we find other mythological parallels? Why is Schrodinger referenced and what does this have to do with Pinocchio or Anime? 

We meet Vicious Vicki Venuto. She's a Jersey Girl. A Jersey Shore girl to be precise. And she'll kick your teeth in if you don't like it. Our own Mr. Thomas was a Jersey Shore guy because of course he was. They share tales and stereotypes. We explore the Lubabu(?) craze. We talk food. We always talk food. Did she have any supernatural experiences or beliefs? Turns out everyone does.What's the New Jersey Devil?Why is the University of New Jersey known by a different name? Jets or Giants or are both colonizers?All this and some wrestling related content.

John Michael Godier is a scientist and an avid follower in the UFO phenomena. He hosts the Event Horizon podcast and has a huge YouTube channer of the same name. He's also the author of two science fiction novels. He's spoken to everyone even remotely in field from Professor Avi Loeb to the disclosure skeptics and advocates. We discuss many of the recent stories including the disclosure efforts from certain nations, our interstellar visitors, the Ferme paradox, etc. We also visit some issues that aren't well reported as they occurred in the Soviet Union during the Cold War. I want to thank our mutual friend, Kristaps, for helping to put this together. If you'd like to support his work and The Eastern Border show, he has authentic Soviet era war plan maps recently found in a Latvian warehouse. Prices are reasonable and these are one of a kind authentic pieces of history. Please email Kris at theeasternborder@gmail.com. 

Brian Townsend was in law enforcement for approximately three decades; primarily with the United States Drug Enforcement Agency. Since retired, he's involved with a 501C3 non profit educating and reaching regarding the extraordinary dangers of fetanyl. We discuss his upbringing and professional career. He explains the remit of the DEA and we explore how the DEA works in other countries, the chain of command, and separates fact from fiction. Jeffzikastan plays a large role. International law and law enforcemant is discussed. No one knows exactly what Interpol is. How do Ambassadors fit in? Are different Warrants handled differently? What standard of law must be applied?Brian is very frank in his answers and we had a lot of fun. But pay close attention to the portions dedicated to his cause and the non profit organization. It's important work. The statistics are staggering. And they need your support.

Hillary Johns is a business and trial litigator. Her offices are in Beverly Hills, San Francisco and New York. So, you know she's not messing around. But she's also an attorney that spends a lot of time with new and small businesses. We discuss what a new businessperson should consider. What is necessary. What is good to seriously consider. And what are warning signs and items people routinely ignore...until it's too late. If I did this show solo, it would have been 85% identical on substance. But it's better if you don;t hear it from me, but a guest. Of course, this show is not legal advice and is for entertainment and informational purposes only. You should always talk to your own independent counsel.Anyway, what do we have to say to you potential to mid-experienced businesspeople? Hit play.

Is being once ranked the 25th best wrestler in the world count? Does being a former champion of a major promotion increase one's value? How does one fix their rates or is it more reactive? We discuss these items and more.We also chat about non wrestling topics. From nonsense to political theory (Kane is a political thinker), We also tackle Tip Culture and GoFundMes.

I'm confused and concerned about what's going on with immigration law and practice. Also, what's not going on: Due Process in a lot of cases. And I'm a lawyer, but not an immigration lawyer.

The history we're making will tell the tale.This is an immigration attorney's efforts to answer my questions and provide some status of what's going on in legal forums around America. And the effort to keep up with the explosive nature of the shotgun attack on immigrants; legal and illegal.
