The Farside Paranormal Podcast - America's Favorite Paranormal Podcast since 2014

After too long in silence, Bob Bain returns to the airwaves—this time with a mission. In this special announcement, Bob pulls back the curtain on a world where reality is no longer what it seems, where artificial intelligence blurs the lines of identity, and where control through fear, distraction, and dependency is tightening its grip on society. As censorship spreads and history is rewritten before our eyes, he issues a stark warning: the age of complacency is over. With The Night Airwaves, launching in August 2025 (with exclusive interviews starting this March), Bob promises raw, unfiltered discussions on the truths others are too afraid to face. No scripts. No corporate overlords. No boundaries. Just the light of inquiry cutting through the darkness. Visit NightAirwaves.com to follow the journey—because soon, it will be the only place to hear Bob Bain speak.

In this episode of Mysterious Matters, we explore a radical yet scientifically grounded hypothesis: that the aliens of legend may, in fact, be our own descendants—advanced humans who have transcended the limitations of our current existence and reached back in time to guide our evolution. Drawing on cutting-edge research in astrophysics, genetics, and quantum biology, we delve into ancient astronomical alignments, the intricate patterns hidden in our DNA, and theories that challenge the linear view of time.  This exploration is an invitation to rethink what it means to be human and to consider a universe where the future and the past are intricately intertwined. Prepare to have your perspective expanded as we examine the scientific clues that suggest our cosmic heritage may be closer to home than we ever imagined.

A storm rages outside. The wind howls, rain lashes against the windows, and then—without warning—it appears. A glowing sphere drifts silently through the room, defying all logic. It hovers, pulsates, then vanishes into the night, leaving behind only questions. Is ball lightning merely an unexplained natural phenomenon, or could it be something far stranger? A glimpse into another dimension? A message from beyond? Tonight on Mysterious Matters, host Bob Bain peels back the layers of history, science, and the paranormal to uncover the truth. From centuries-old battlefield encounters to modern pilots witnessing luminous orbs in the sky, from eerie folklore to chilling firsthand experiences—including Bob's own family's brush with the unknown—this episode takes you deep into the mystery. Could these electrified specters be visitors from another realm, or is there something hidden within the very fabric of reality that we have yet to understand? Turn down the lights, open your mind, and join us as we journey into the mystery of ball lightning—where science, the supernatural, and the unexplained collide. This is Mysterious Matters, and tonight, we're asking: What is real, and what is beyond our grasp?

Can dogs really talk? What if they've been trying to communicate with us all along? In this episode of Mysterious Matters, we explore the fascinating case of Bunny, the talking dog, and the mysterious world of button-based communication. Are these interactions mere conditioning, or do they hint at a deeper intelligence in our four-legged companions? We'll dive into the science, the skepticism, and the emerging theories that suggest dogs may be capable of symbolic thought—perhaps even forming questions, expressing emotions, and seeking understanding in ways we never imagined. From the groundbreaking research in canine cognition to the personal experiences of pet owners around the world, this episode challenges everything we thought we knew about the way animals communicate.

The highways grow silent. The factories stand still. The supply chains that once powered the world begin to fade into memory. In their place, a new force emerges—one that defies distance, reshapes industry, and challenges the very fabric of human labor. Tonight on Mysterious Matters, we journey into a future where the rules of production and transportation are rewritten. Advanced 3D printing forges vehicles, electronics, and even fresh food from raw materials, while teleportation technology disassembles and reassembles matter in an instant. But progress is never without cost. What happens when the familiar rhythms of labor, travel, and commerce are disrupted? Who controls the gateways of instant creation? And what secrets lie within the unseen forces that govern this new world? Join me, Bob Bain, as we step beyond the horizon of the known—into the vanishing highways of tomorrow.
