When Islands of Adventure's Toon Lagoon opened, an “innovative” new show debuted. Rocky and Bullwinkle, Betty Boop, and Beetle Bailey got together to put on a revue filled with razzle-dazzle crap. It was not exactly well received, and it closed within nine months.Ancient funny-page characters? Hooray-for-Hollywood bullshit?

Chris sadly passed away a few years ago from this posting in 2026.This week we talk about the Ark of the Covenant with Christopher Jordan. Chris has written a number of books on what he calls The Ancient Solar Premise. Chris' latest book, The Ark of the Covenant Operations Manual, talks about what the ark really was, and how the miracles ascribed to it were performed.Christopher Jordan was born in London and studied Chemical Physics at Sussex University, under the guidance of Sir Harold Kroto. He played a part in manually analyzing the early data from the microwave telescopes, eventually identifying an alcohol in interstellar gas clouds. These tasks were being automated by computers, which were doing the job better and faster. During a short spell on the accounting ladder, the same was noted within the financial sector. Chris Jordan surfed this wave of computer growth by developing small and large data systems for national food and beverage companies. Eventually, managing a national software department after stints as a programmer, business analyst and project manager.During this period he became intrigued with some of the unanswered questions surrounding nature's development process. After many years of study some concepts were crossed over between the computing and biological arenas. This led to some novel computer systems that literally built themselves around the databases to which they were aimed. This software was the center piece of a computer company set up by a few partners and himself. Several papers on systems analysis and design were published during this time in specialist magazines.Whilst running this company, further research was carried out modeling non-linear reaction diffusion systems on the surfaces of cells and groups of cells. This led to his seminal work on the nature of morphological determination and the role cell adhesion molecules played within the scheme. This in turn led to some unique experiments in the field of developmental biology. The general framework for development was published in Thailand during a three year sabbatical.The author started visiting the ancient sites of Asia during this period. Whilst he had previously been a visitor to the European and Egyptian sites, the common facets of the cultures began to emerge from all this travel. Despite a two year interlude managing the IT for a global spirits company in ex Eastern bloc countries, the interest in the ancient past continued. Specifically, the desire to make sense of all of these similar religious sites, tools and unexplained curios. Any scientist is taught that it is from the quirky inexplicable areas that new ideas evolve. A simple paradigm that extends further is deemed more elegant than a restrictive complex alternative. This is where the site narrative that makes up the Secrets of the Sun Sects stems from.This was coupled with the faulty parabolic mirror theories that surround these same cultures. The math that shows how easy it was for the ancient craftsmen to build the mirrors and how powerful they were, was carried out over thirty years ago. Ironically, this was the first thing the author failed to publish as a teenager. At the time, it was just a table, which a child thought was missing from the classroom texts. Fortuitously, it was very useful in proving that spherical surfaces make good Burning Mirrors for all manner of applications. From these two strands the full scope of the use of solar technology in the ancient world was built up. He is currently promoting the use of solar technologies in the developing countries of Asia.Check Out his website: www.secretsofthesunsects.wordpress.com Hosted on Acast.

Ancient faiths and modern psi research come together in this course to be taught by Jimmy Akin. The online course, Religion & Parapsychology, will explore how Christianity, Buddhism, Islam, and more have grappled with ESP, miracles, and the afterlife—and why serious evidence may challenge both skeptics and believers alike: What if psi research strengthens, rather than weakens, core religious claims about the soul, revelation, and the spiritual world?

Send us a textA sleepless night in the 90s, a BBC documentary, and a mural that wouldn't let go—this is the spark that powers today's conversation. We follow that current from a teenager's curiosity to a sweeping look at how electricity rewired human history, culture, and ambition. Guided by Raoul Dufy's vast tableau of monuments and machinery, we decode the symbols of progress and the people who carried the charge.We revisit the origins: Thales and the first static experiments, Gilbert's careful notes, Franklin's bold tests, Faraday's fields, and the equations that gave shape to the unseen. The plot intensifies with Edison and Tesla, the current war that defined long-distance power, and Westinghouse's bet that made AC the backbone of modern grids. Along the way, we shine a light on Lewis Latimer, whose filament work helped turn a fragile invention into everyday brilliance. This isn't hero worship; it's a reminder that real breakthroughs demand teamwork, credit, and grit.Then we turn the lens to the present and near future. What does “the spirit of electricity” look like when it's your neighborhood, your workshop, your city's horizon? We talk Nigeria's energy reality: intermittent supply, inventive workarounds, and the promise of mini-grids, smart meters, and renewables. We explore how reliable power drives health, education, and jobs, and why policy and public trust matter as much as turbines and transformers. The challenge ahead isn't just technical—it's cultural. Can we treat the grid as a shared craft, plan beyond election cycles, and train the talent that keeps the lights honest?If you felt that first jolt of wonder from a flicker, a lab demo, or a skyline at night, this conversation is your voltage check. Tap play, see the mural through fresh eyes, and help sketch the next chapter of power: resilient, fair, and built to last.

Ever feel like your skin is constantly angry at you? Reactive. Stinging. Red for no reason. Like it went from cooperative to completely unpredictable the moment you hit 40? You've probably been told you're just "sensitive now." Maybe you've been diagnosed with rosacea. Maybe you've bought every gentle, fragrance-free product on the market and you're still dealing with irritation. Here's what nobody's telling you: your skin isn't just sensitive. It's inflamed. And there's a huge difference. In this episode, we're diving into something called inflammaging: the chronic, low-grade inflammation that happens in midlife and affects everything from how your skin looks to how it responds to literally every product you put on it. Most skincare approaches completely miss this. They throw more actives at the problem (more vitamin C, more retinol, more acids) which only makes inflamed skin worse. So what's the solution? Turns out, Cleopatra might have been onto something with those legendary milk and honey baths. And no, this isn't about recreating some over-the-top royal spa treatment. It's about understanding why this ritual worked for inflammatory skin and how you can bring that same genius into your own life without needing a palace, a staff, or a dairy farm. In this episode, you'll learn: What inflammaging actually is and why it's wrecking your skin after 40 Why piling on more "anti-aging" products can backfire when your skin is inflamed The anti-inflammatory science behind milk and honey (it's legit) How to create your own weekly ritual that calms your system and gives your skin permission to heal Why this approach works when everything else has failed If you're tired of your skin feeling like it's constantly fighting you, this episode might just change everything.

The majestic and iconic Navajo Sandstone has become ubiquitous in scenes from the Colorado Plateau. Margie Chan, Professor Emeritus at the University of Utah, has studied the Navajo Sandstone her entire career and we discuss the deposition and unique features of this Jurassic wind-blown sand. This ancient desert extended across much of Utah, Arizona, and Nevada, and combined different geological structures including dunes, lake deposits, and springs. In this first of a 2-part series, we talk about the key role that groundwater plays in the sediment deformation and coloring. The next episode delves into the role of iron in the Navajo sandstone and its connection to Mars.

This episode of Alphas Make Sandwiches kicks off with Groundhog Day chaos, falling iguanas in Florida, and a deep dive into the strange tradition of “painting the town red,” tracing the phrase back to 19th-century British aristocrats and elite excess. The hosts share camera-roll challenges, night photography tips, and audience submissions before pivoting into U.S. history, including the founding of Rocky Mountain National Park, the Challenger and Columbia disasters, and a thought-provoking discussion on the constitutional consequences of the 13th Amendment's ratification. The conversation shifts to cultural commentary with reactions to awards-show spectacle, celebrity activism, and public expressions of faith, including Jelly Roll's acceptance speech. The panel also explores Victorian-era curse words, blasphemy laws, and creative alternatives to modern profanity, blending history with humor. Rounding out the show are hands-on segments featuring crystal-growing crafts, Super Bowl snack ideas, sourdough recipes, and Badlands community banter, making this episode equal parts cultural analysis, history lesson, and laid-back Monday hang.

We talk with Mack Maloney about his latest book, Beyond Area 51, and also touch upon his previous book, UFOs in Wartime: What They Didn't Want You To Know. We discuss the facts about secret military bases all around the world. Some of it is probably much stranger than you realize, and not in the way you expect! Mack Maloney grew up in the Dorchester section of Boston and was taught to read and write by the nuns at St. Ann's School. His father was a veteran of World War II and he used to read military books all the time. As a child, Mack started reading them too, along with a lot of science fiction. He received a BS in journalism and a graduate degree in filmmaking from Emerson College. He was a sports reporter for two years after college before joining corporate America as a publicist for General Electric Company. Mack started writing books in 1984, and have been doing it full time since 1987, penning over 30 books. https://www.mackmaloney.com/ Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

There's an annoying thing in the witchcraft community where every new idea or trend gets cast as an "ancient" practice even if it's just a few years old. Time and time again, we see people constructing false narratives about the supposed historicity of ideas, spells, and rituals in witchcraft spaces, and all of it is bad for us. Why do people feel the need to lie? Why does something being a new idea make it less credible in people's eyes? Why have we been doing this as a community from the start?

Guest: Padraic Scanlan. Scanlan discusses the structure of Irish land ownership, using Shirley Castle as an example of the disconnect between landlords and tenants. He explains that while the landscape looked ancient, landlords were actually modern, sophisticated merchants who extracted rent from a tenant class living on small, unimproved plots known as "conacres."

Tom Blaschko has an interesting piece of work, entitled "Calculating Soul Connections", where he attempts to shows the connections between the physical world and what could be defined as our souls. We discuss various aspects of the book and how it came about. Tom Blaschko earned a Bachelor's degree in astronomy from the California Institute of Technology and a Master's degree in developmental psychology from the State University of New York at Buffalo. He is a third degree black belt in Shotokan Karate, where he learned about ki, the martial arts aspect of the life force. Tom's scientific influences include research by Rupert Sheldrake on morphic fields, Ian Stevenson's studies of people who remember past lives, analysis of the effects of Emotional Freedom Techniques and other energy healing, and research on ki by Kuo Kanshin and Shigeru Egami's group. Beyond the scientific research there are thousands of stories from seemingly credible people who have talked with angels or fairy folk or apus or djinn, seen ghosts, and lived in Dreamtime. Rather than discredit these reports, Tom asked the question: What needs to be added to Western science to make these stories possible? It was a two-item list: souls with chakras and a fifth force called the life force. Both of these are accepted in many cultures, so nothing new was needed. Currently, Tom lives in the Pacific Northwest where is working on his next book, We All Have Souls and I Think I Can Prove It. wwwcalculatingsoulconnections.com Hosted on Acast.

Ancient sources claim that pigs were sometimes used as weapons against war elephants. Murray examines the origins of this idea, whether it ever occurred, and the famous story associated with Antigonus II Gonatas at the siege of Megara. Did armies really set pigs on fire to panic war elephants? What evidence do we have for this practice? Was it a routine tactic, or does the story survive primarily because of a single account by Antigonus II Gonatas of the siege of Megara? Murray examines the sources behind these claims, what ancient writers say about animals used against elephants, and the reliability of these accounts.   Join us on Patreon patreon.com/ancientwarfarepodcast

Slavery was foundational to ancient societies, but it was never a single thing: The experiences of the enslaved varied dramatically depending on when and where they lived, who owned them, and most of all, the jobs they had to do. Slavery was never good, but there were better and worse versions, and in this episode, we'll explore some of the variation that shaped the lives of enslaved people.Patrick launched a brand-new history show!

Long restricted to nighttime visits under heavy IDF escort, worshippers were allowed to visit the heritage site during the daytime, a move Israeli leaders and rabbis called a long-overdue rectification and a step toward restoring a full Jewish presence at the site. This development comes just weeks after prayer restrictions were also eased on the Temple Mount. As these changes unfold on the ground, regional tensions are rising. President Trump announced a "massive armada" led by the USS Abraham Lincoln is moving toward Iran, while antisemitic violence again surfaced in New York and a disconnect from the Bible was evidenced by Tucker Carlson's remarks in Saudi Arabia.

Around 500 BCE, the Indian scholar Pāṇini wrote a treatise on Sanskrit, the Aṣṭādhyāyī, describing a kind of language machine: an algebraic system of rules for producing grammatically correct word forms. The enormity and elegance of that accomplishment—and the underlying computational methodology—cemented Pāṇini's place as a founder of linguistics. Even so, centuries of commentators have insisted that there are glitches in the machine's ability to tackle rule conflict (that is, a situation in which two or more rules are simultaneously applicable) and have responded with complex rules and tools aimed at resolving the issues apparently besetting the ancient system.

Ex 7:25-9:35, Matt 19:13-30, Ps 24:1-10, Pr 6:1-5

Rhythm, ritual and reverie are interconnected. They are interwoven in a way that has invoked an experience of the sacred as long as humans have been around. Rhythm gives birth to cycles of becoming and ending. We can align ourselves to existence by paying attention to life's rhythms, which bring us to feel our connection and place in the weave of everything. In ordinary life, rhythm shows up in our routines. These can become portals, sacred doorways which help us to ground and self-regulate. Having a conscious relationship to fluid and creative routines is different than having a collection of mechanical habits that buffer us from reality. Awareness of our state is healing in itself. Ancient people answered big questions of life through communal ritual. The winter solstice is a threshold moment in the rhythm of the year. In times of craziness that come from woundedness, routine and ritual can make a difference. Little practical things can be anchored and ritualized. Rituals are a way we can invoke divine help. When we ask for help, it's the beginning of laying our burdens down. What burdens do we carry that are not ours to carry? What burdens are we meant to carry? Sometimes we must turn our burdens over to a power that is greater than us. There are three levels of symbols: practical, metaphorical and universal. Sometimes we carry each other when a burden is very great. Through presence we can experience wonder and awe, and court the possibility of reverie. In reverie, we lay our burdens down, open a doorway to revelation, and attune to our deepest Self without effort. Mary Angelon Young is a workshop leader with a background in Jungian psychology, an editor, and author of As It Is, Under the Punnai Tree, The Baul Tradition, Caught in the Beloved's Petticoats, Enlightened Duality (with Lee Lozowick), The Art of Contemplation, and other books. If you are interested in more on this topic by Mary, visit hohmsahajmandir.org and click on the Sahaja blog.

Shambhala Revealed – Ancient Tibetan Secrets to Finding Your Inner Paradise Shambhala is often described as a hidden kingdom. In this episode, we explore a deeper truth: Shambhala as an inner state of consciousness. Drawing from ancient Tibetan wisdom, contemplative traditions, and modern inner work, this talk unpacks how clarity, courage, and compassion are cultivated from the inside out. We look at why the search for paradise often fails externally, and how training the mind and heart creates a lived experience of peace, resilience, and meaning.

This study challenges long-held assumptions and uses seismic wave data to illustrate how these large low velocity provinces differ in density and material, impacting the planet's heat extraction from the core and potentially affecting the stability of Earth's magnetic field.Confirmation of Mars as a Blue PlanetNew evidence from ancient Martian river deltas suggests that Mars was once covered by a vast ocean. High-resolution images reveal delta-like structures, indicating that water once flowed into an ocean approximately 3 billion years ago. This discovery supports the notion of a once habitable environment on Mars, offering insights into its geological history and the potential for life.Galaxies Growing Through Cool Gas FilamentsA fascinating new study has demonstrated how galaxies can rapidly grow by drawing in filaments of cool gas. Observations from the Keck Telescope's Cosmic Webb Imager provide direct evidence of these gas streams spiraling into galaxies, fueling star formation at unprecedented rates. This research offers significant insights into the processes of galaxy formation and the role of the cosmic web in shaping the universe.www.spacetimewithstuartgary.com✍️ Episode ReferencesScientific ReportsMPJ Space ExplorationNature AstronomyBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/spacetime-your-guide-to-space-astronomy--2458531/support.(00:00:00) Distinct histories of Earth's mantle provinces(00:12:15) Mars confirmed as a blue planet with ancient ocean(00:25:30) Galaxies grow rapidly through cool gas filaments(00:35:00) Discovery of the oldest known rock art in the world.

Every summer, millions of birds flock to the Arctic Circle to find mates and raise their young. In a study published in 2025, paleontologists found evidence of the earliest known Arctic breeding colony from fossils uncovered in northern Alaska. The site dates back nearly 73 million years when many prehistoric predecessors to modern birds still had teeth; including the gull-like ichthyornitheans and the flightless, loon-like hesperornitheans. These were among several types of ancient avians preserved as both adults and hatchlings, which suggests the site was used for nesting. Just like today, these birds were likely taking advantage of the abundant food provided by the 24-hours of summer daylight.More info and transcript at BirdNote.org.Want more BirdNote?

Long before Antarctica was ever discovered, people already believed it existed. Ancient philosophers and mapmakers imagined a massive southern continent—Terra Australis—balancing the world, a phantom land drawn onto maps centuries before anyone laid eyes on it. But when explorers finally reached the far south in the 1800s, they found something far stranger than myth: a frozen world that seemed to distort not just navigation, but perception itself.In this episode, the boys journey through the eerie history of Antarctica—from ancient legends and early expeditions to unsettling ghost stories and modern conspiracies. They explore accounts from polar explorers who claimed to hear voices in abandoned huts, feel unseen presences in the darkness, and even encounter mysterious “third companions” during near-death journeys across the ice.The story then descends into the continent's real-world anomalies: blood-red waterfalls pouring from glaciers, massive lakes hidden under miles of ice, and warm volcanic caves that may harbor unknown ecosystems beneath the coldest place on Earth.But Antarctica's strangest chapter may have come after World War II. The episode examines Nazi expeditions to the continent, unexplained submarine disappearances, and the U.S. Navy's massive Operation Highjump—led by Admiral Richard Byrd—followed by his unsettling warnings about aircraft coming from the polar regions.Finally, the episode confronts the biggest question of all: why did every major world power agree to lock away an entire continent under the Antarctic Treaty? With no military allowed, no permanent population, and strict global control, Antarctica remains the only place on Earth that truly feels off-limits.Not because of what is known.But because of what might still be buried under the ice.www.patreon.com/theconspiracypodcast

What are the Akashic Records and how can Akashic Record readings help you? In this episode of The Art of Authenticity, Laura explains the Akashic Records in clear, practical terms. The Records are described as an ancient informational field that holds the complete history of your soul – every thought, action, lifetime, and the original soul plan created before incarnation. Laura explores how this field is accessed, how guides help translate what's most relevant, and why Akashic Record readings only reveal what serves your highest good. The conversation moves beyond mysticism into lived understanding, showing how the Records support alignment, authentic decision-making, and clarity around why you're here.

Christopher O'Brien has a new book out entitled. Stalking the Herd, which is one of the most the most thoroughly researched books ever published on Cattle Mutilations. In part one of this interview, we discuss the phenomena in general, we talk about it's history, and the first cases. We do get into the levels of high strangeness, as well as the mundane cases. Chris will be back in June for Part 2. From 1992 to 2002 Christopher O'Brien investigated over one thousand paranormal events reported in the San Luis Valley—located in south-central Colorado/north-central New Mexico. Working with law enforcement officials, ex-military, ranchers and an extensive network of skywatchers, he documented what may have been the most intense wave of unexplained activity ever seen in a single region of North America. His ten-year investigation resulted in the three books of his “mysterious valley” trilogy: The Mysterious Valley, Enter the Valley, and Secrets of the Mysterious Valley. His meticulous field investigation of UFO reports, unexplained livestock deaths, Native American legends, cryptozoology, secret military activity and the folklore, found in the world's largest alpine valley, has produced one of the largest databases of unusual occurrences gathered from a single geographic region. He is currently working with a team of specialists installing a high-tech video surveillance and hard-data monitoring system in and around the San Luis Valley. He has also authored Stalking the Tricksters which is published by Adventures Unlimited Press. This controversial book distills his years of field investigation and research into an ingenious unified paranormal theory that is sure to create intense interest and controversy.

Welcome to Episode 70 of our LDS Discussions series!In this episode, our panel takes a deep dive into one of the most debated questions surrounding the Book of Mormon: were ancient metal plates a known concept in Joseph Smith's world, and are they truly comparable to the golden plates he described?We examine historical sources from the 18th and 19th centuries that reference metal records –brass, copper, lead, and stone –and place them within Joseph Smith's cultural and intellectual milieu. From biblical scholarship and early American speculation about Native American origins to apologists' use of presentism, this episode carefully distinguishes between general awareness of metal inscriptions and the specific, unprecedented claims of a large golden codex containing extensive narrative text.Along the way, we explore major figures, books, and ideas circulating before and during Joseph Smith's lifetime, assess whether these sources were likely known to him, and ask a crucial question: at what point does probability break down –not because of a single anachronism, but because of the sheer scale and complexity of the plates described in the Book of Mormon?This conversation builds toward a detailed timeline of Joseph Smith's environment, highlighting how concepts expanded, evolved, and were ultimately synthesized into something entirely new.Leave a comment letting us know if you like this format with John Dehlin being “not home.”___________________YouTubeAt Mormon Stories we explore, celebrate, and challenge Mormon culture through in-depth stories told by members and former members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints as well as scholars, authors, LDS apologists, and other professionals.  Our overall mission is to: 1.
