Tonight on Richard Syrett's Strange Planet, we examine a story modern science is deeply uncomfortable confronting. Katie Asher's journey begins in trauma and survival, then leads to her son Houston—severely neurologically injured, non-speaking, yet unmistakably present. When he communicates the sentence “I'm in here,” it isn't a revelation of awakening—but of recognition. Through supported spelling, Houston demonstrates advanced language, abstract reasoning, and a coherent spiritual worldview he was never taught—describing heaven, angels, and Christ—while his mother remains skeptical. Researchers documented the data. Filmmakers told part of the story. But the spiritual framework was left out. Tonight, we explore what happens when consciousness refuses to fit inside a materialist box. GUEST: Katie Asher is a writer, speaker, and advocate for non-speaking individuals whose cognitive and inner lives are routinely misunderstood. She is the co-author of The Book of Heaven, written with her son Houston, a work that challenges assumptions about intelligence, communication, and the nature of consciousness itself. Known for her intellectual honesty and initial skepticism, Katie brings a grounded, maternal, and rigorously self-critical perspective to questions of neuroscience, spirituality, and faith. Her family's story has drawn the attention of researchers and documentary filmmakers precisely because it resists easy categorization—and refuses to diminish the dignity of those who communicate differently.

Maria Cuccia, author of His Name Is Elijah, shares a deeply personal story that begins with faith, family, and motherhood—and then crosses into territory most people refuse to contemplate. This is not a UFO case file or a detached investigation. It's a lived experience shaped by Catholic mysticism, generational trauma, altered states of consciousness, and an alleged non-human encounter centered on an impossible bond: a mother and a child who does not exist in ordinary reality. We're not here to debunk or diagnose—only to ask whether our categories are too small. GUEST: Maria Cuccia is the author of His Name Is Elijah, a memoir exploring faith, consciousness, and an extraordinary encounter that reshaped her understanding of motherhood and reality itself. Writing with vulnerability and conviction, Cuccia examines the collision between mystical experience, psychiatry, and belief, offering a rare inside account of what happens when meaning itself is put on trial. Her work sits at the uneasy intersection of spirituality, trauma, and alleged non-human contact. BOOK: His Name is Elijah WEBSITE: https://mariacuccia.com SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS!!!

Richard Syrett is joined by Steve E. Asher, author of We Have Done This Before, a haunting collection of real-world cases involving reincarnation memories and near-death experiences. GUEST: Steve E. Asher is an author, folklorist, and podcaster who documents anomalous human experiences at the crossroads of memory, trauma, and consciousness.

You want your work to matter — and in these moments of crisis, it's very easy to connect that what I'm doing is making a difference.Ankur Agarwal is an Amazon supply chain executive who's built a nearly 20-year career across operations, supply chain, and procurement — always connecting people, strategy, and real in-market results. Most recently, Ankur has been leading Amazon's Global Retail Imports strategy and technology roadmap, driving more than $1 Billion in projected annual savings while navigating the realities of global trade, compliance, and an increasingly complex geopolitical landscape. Before returning to Amazon, Ankur spent 1.5 years as an early Ops exec at CarGurus, where he helped build the operating model and financial infrastructure for a new digital retail division. Prior to that, Ankur spent nearly NINE years at Amazon across a wide range of supply chain and operations leadership roles — from warehouse and last-mile operations, to robotics fulfillment, to vendor integration during the COVID-era supply recovery. Across all those diverse Amazon roles, Ankur drove billions in measurable value, owned a $500M+ P&L, operated across 20+ facilities, and led teams of 700+ people. Earlier in his career, Ankur spent six years at Procter & Gamble as a Senior Purchasing Manager in Cincinnati and Singapore, working across categories including Baby, Fem, and Family Care packaging, and leading multi-market supplier and cost transformations. Ankur began his career at Toyota North America in Northern Kentucky, managing large-scale portfolios and vehicle programs. Ankur earned his undergraduate degree from Cornell and his master's from the University of Michigan Ross School of Business / Tauber Institute, and is now based in the greater Boston area with his wife and three children. You'll enjoy this candid conversation about constant curiosity, bias for action, and how a genuine care for people and relationships can make a difference.

Thousands of credible sightings, Enigma's 9,000+ mapped underwater anomalies, and Palomar's peer-reviewed evidence of nuclear monitoring since the 1940s rocked the field. Landmark congressional hearings featured veterans, an active-duty sailor, and George Knapp testifying to defy-physics encounters and whistleblower reprisals. Bipartisan legislation pushed boundaries, while The Age of Disclosure documentary—featuring 34 insiders—shattered records and mainstreamed the topic.

But tonight, Richard Syrett is unlocking one of those premium episodes for everyone. In this special open-access edition of Strange Planet, Richard revisits one of the most pivotal UFO encounters in history. In July 1948, Eastern Airlines pilots Clarence Chiles and John Whitted were flying a DC-3 over Montgomery, Alabama, when a massive, glowing, cigar-shaped craft streaked past their cockpit with blazing exhaust before vanishing into the night sky. The incident stunned the U.S. Air Force and helped spark what would become Project Blue Book. Official explanations quickly followed—but the records don't line up. Declassified files, burned reports, and conflicting testimony suggest something far more troubling. Was it a meteor, a secret military prototype—or evidence of a non-human presence? Join Richard Syrett as he opens a normally locked file and examines the Chiles-Whitted encounter—one mystery too important to keep behind a paywall. SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS!!!

Not as a matter of faith, but as a question of evidence. This episode of Strange Planet takes listeners into a courtroom-style investigation of Christianity's most consequential claim—the birth of Christ. Trial attorney Daniel P. Buttafuoco examines the Bible not as devotional literature, but as documentary evidence, weighing eyewitness testimony, manuscript reliability, and forensic archaeology. From the Dead Sea Scrolls to Messianic prophecy written centuries before Bethlehem, this is a Christmas episode without sentimentality—rooted in ancient texts, hard proof, and a single, unsettling question: if this were any other case, would the evidence really be dismissed? GUEST: Daniel P. Buttafuoco is a veteran trial attorney who brings the discipline of the courtroom to the biggest questions of faith. Known for his rigorous, evidence-based approach, he treats Christianity as a legal case—argued with rules of evidence, standards of proof, and historical documentation. In his book Unapologetic: Clear Answers to Tough Bible Questions, Buttafuoco examines Scripture as an ancient legal record, drawing on eyewitness testimony, textual consistency, and forensic discoveries like the Dead Sea Scrolls. He doesn't ask audiences to believe—he asks them to examine the evidence and reach a verdict.

Jeff Brown claims a seemingly benign collaboration drew him into a hidden world of digital surveillance, psychological pressure, police signaling, and off-book actors operating beyond accountability. In this episode of Strange Planet, Brown recounts how intimate access gave way to years of intimidation—and why he believes modern power no longer needs arrests or censorship to silence dissent. If technology is the new enforcer and anonymity the new weapon, Brown warns his story isn't an anomaly. It's a preview. A chilling conversation about sovereignty, silence, and the machinery beneath the official story. GUEST: Jeff Brown is a former criminal lawyer, psychotherapist, and best-selling author. His work explores power, trauma, technology, and spiritual sovereignty.

FOLLOW RICHARD Website: https://www.strangeplanet.ca YouTube: @strangeplanetradio Instagram: @richardsyrettstrangeplanet TikTok: @therealstrangeplanet EP. #1295 Manufactured Nightmares: When Science Fiction's Monsters Crawl Out of the Lab Monsters were never meant to be real. They were warnings. In the final chapter of our four-part series on Science Fiction & Reality, we confront the most unsettling idea of all: the creatures that once haunted novels and movie screens were never fantasies — they were prototypes. From mutants and cyborgs to engineered viruses, mind control, cloning, and immortal elites, science fiction didn't invent our fears. It documented them in advance. Tonight, with Professor Mark Brake, we ask the forbidden question no one in power wants answered: What if the real monster was never the creature… but the human who created it? GUEST: Professor Mark Brake is a leading science communicator and author exploring the hidden feedback loop between imagination and innovation. He is the author of FutureWorld: Where Science Fiction Becomes Science and numerous bestselling books examining the real science behind Star Wars, superheroes, time travel, and the multiverse. Known for translating complex ideas into gripping narratives, Brake argues that science fiction doesn't merely entertain — it quietly shapes the laboratories, technologies, and futures we eventually inhabit.

EP. #1294 Programming the Cosmos: How Science Fiction Conditioned Humanity for Space What if humanity didn't invent the space age—but inherited it? In Part Three of our four-part series on how science fiction shapes reality, Professor Mark Brake traces an unsettling pattern: rockets, satellites, lunar landings, arcologies, even cosmic megastructures all appeared in fiction long before engineers built them. From Kepler to Clarke, storytellers sketched the architecture of the modern world centuries in advance. Were these writers merely imaginative—or were they quietly programming our collective future? Tonight, we follow the thread into orbit, where fiction stops entertaining us and starts directing us. GUEST: Professor Mark Brake is a leading science communicator and author exploring the hidden feedback loop between imagination and innovation. He is the author of FutureWorld: Where Science Fiction Becomes Science and numerous bestselling books examining the real science behind Star Wars, superheroes, time travel, and the multiverse. Known for translating complex ideas into gripping narratives, Brake argues that science fiction doesn't merely entertain — it quietly shapes the laboratories, technologies, and futures we eventually inhabit.

CarGurus' Kevin Roberts breaks down the current state of the auto market, noting how tariffs did not impact pricing as much as anticipated. The expiration of EV tax credits pulled sales into Q3, leading to a sharp Q4 drop. While regional variations exist, hybrid vehicle demand is rising, with Ford (F) shifting focus from pure electric vehicle production to hybrids. Affordability remains the primary concern for consumers, making vehicles under $30,000 highly desirable in the current market.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Options involve risks and are not suitable for all investors.

Every driver who wants to win with Red Bull needs to impress Helmut Marko. The veteran Motorsport Advisor oversees the team's young driver programme and helped launch the careers of Sebastian Vettel and Max Verstappen. A former F1 driver himself, he knows what it takes to race under the highest pressure. Helmut tells Tom Clarkson about his life in racing: childhood adventures in Austria with future world champion Jochen Rindt, and the serious eye injury which ended his driving career just as he was about to join Ferrari. He tells the story of how he met Red Bull founder Dietrich Mateschitz, and how they started the F1 team which would go on to win races and championships with Vettel and Verstappen. Plus, Marko explains how Verstappen and Team Principal Laurent Mekies have changed the team's approach in 2025 and picks the young driver with potential to be a future champion.

"2025 has been a pretty interesting year for the auto industry," says Kevin Roberts with CarGurus. He has a particular interest in the used car market, noticing a rise in vehicle sales under $30,000 and/or with cars seven years or older. Kevin sees similar trends in the EV space after the Trump administration axed the EV tax credits. With interest rates remaining high and new vehicle prices increasing, he says it's critical a middle ground forms to draw prospective car buyers toward new vehicles.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.

30 years ago, a 120mph puncture sent Mika Hakkinen's car spinning over a high kerb and into a wall of tyres. His McLaren did not have many of the safety devices modern F1 cars have. Mika suffered serious injuries which left him in hospital, unsure if he would ever race again. Mika tells Tom Clarkson he thinks about his crash at the 1995 Australian Grand Prix every day, and he remembers the moment he lost control of the car and hit the wall vividly. He talks about his physical and mental recovery and the nerves he felt the first time he got back into a Formula 1 car after the crash. Hakkinen returned to Formula 1 for the 1996 season, but says the crash had a lasting impact. He recalls how he shook off his doubts, rediscovered his speed and became strong enough to win the Formula 1 World Championship in 1998 and 1999.

Shoot us a Text.Episode #1173: Scott Painter steers TrueCar back to private ownership, CarGurus says buyers are going older to stay on budget, and freelancers navigate the double-edged sword of AI—faster work, smaller paychecks, and a whole lot of “good enough.”Show Notes with links:TrueCar's founder and former CEO, Scott Painter, is back. Nearly a decade after his controversial exit, Painter is leading a $227 million investor group to take the publicly traded company private — a bold move aimed at restoring TrueCar's dealer relationships and market relevance.Painter's syndicate, Fair Holdings Inc., includes investors from dealer, data, fintech, and mobility sectors.He'll return as CEO once the all-cash transaction closes in late 2025, pending shareholder and regulatory approval.The deal follows a year-long strategic review by TrueCar's board, seeking a sustainable path forward after layoffs and leadership turnover.TrueCar's stock surged 62% on the announcement, closing at $2.40.Painter emphasized collaboration: “Partnerships and brand alignment are central to creating value for both dealers and customers.”CarGurus' Q3 2025 Quarterly Review shows that when it comes to cars, “old is in.” Despite economic pressure, auto sales are holding steady — but buyers are opting for older, cheaper vehicles to keep monthly payments manageable.Used vehicles under $30K drove 72% of used retail growth over the past year. Nearly half of listings in that range were 7+ years old, averaging $13,600.Director Kevin Roberts says shoppers are split between value-seekers buying older cars and wealthier consumers driving luxury growth.Dealers may need to lean on older inventory and fixed ops to meet demand and keep aging cars running.California, Florida, Texas, and Virginia lead the nation in used cars under $20K, each with 30% or more of listings.“Buyers are increasingly accepting six-figure-mile cars to keep payments within reach,” Roberts noted.AI is reshaping the freelance economy, creating both opportunity and uncertainty for side hustlers. While tools like ChatGPT help freelancers work faster, they're also undercutting pay, originality, and client perception of value.Freelancers say AI boosts efficiency but drives down earnings—writing jobs fell 2%, and income dropped 5% on Upwork after ChatGPT's release.AI lowers the barrier to entry, flooding the market with cheaper “good enough” work that makes it harder for top-tier talent to stand out.Clients increasingly expect AI-level output for less, with some even replacing human contractors with automation tools.“High quality doesn't really protect freelancers,” said Washington University professor Xiang Hui, noting that AI hits experienced workers hardest.Join Paul J Daly and Kyle Mountsier every morning for the Automotive State of the Union podcast as they connect the dots across car dealerships, retail trends, emerging tech like AI, and cultural shifts—bringing clarity, speed, and people-first insight to automotive leaders navigating a rapidly changing industry.Get the Daily Push Back email at https://www.asotu.com/ JOIN the conversation on LinkedIn at: https://www.linkedin.com/company/asotu/

In this replay episode of Coach to Scale, host Matt Bonelli sits down with Josh Allen, a veteran sales leader from LogMeIn, CarGurus, Drift, and other notable companies, to unpack what it truly takes to elevate sales performance. Together, they explore the myths of sales leadership, why “what worked for you” won't always work for your team, and how curiosity, drive, and resilience shape top performers. Josh shares hard-earned lessons from building high-performing teams, along with strategies for identifying intrinsic traits during hiring and coaching salespeople with diverse motivations.Listeners will walk away with practical insights on connecting personal and professional goals, developing consistent coaching rhythms, and sustaining quota attainment without falling into the trap of “growth at all costs.” From nurturing top performers who are often overlooked, to coaching through adversity and building cultures of accountability, this conversation is packed with actionable takeaways for frontline managers, VPs, and anyone passionate about building resilient sales teams.Top Takeaways1. What worked for you won't work for everyone.Great sales leaders learn quickly that their personal playbook can't simply be copied and pasted onto their team.2. Hire for intrinsic traits, train for skills.Curiosity, drive, and resilience are largely unteachable, whereas sales processes and methodologies can always be refined and developed.3. Connect personal goals to professional performance.Helping reps tie career milestones to life goals (like paying off debt or buying a home) builds deeper motivation and accountability.4. Don't overlook your top performers.High achievers also need coaching and career development, not just attention to struggling representatives.5. Toxic performance is never worth it.Even the highest producers can't be allowed to undermine team trust or culture.6. Coaching is non-negotiable.Leaders who claim they “don't have time to coach” are missing the very activity that drives quota attainment.7. Focus on one change at a time.Like a golf swing, coaching is most effective when managers help reps improve one skill consistently before moving to the next.8. Long-term consistency beats short-term intensity.Sustainable sales success stems from steady development and efficient growth, rather than hiring sprees and short-lived pushes.

Franco Colapinto didn't take long to make a name for himself in Formula 1. He became the first Argentine F1 driver in 23 years when he debuted with Williams in 2024. It only took him two races to then become the first Argentine points scorer in the sport since 1982. More than a year since his incredible breakthrough, and now racing for Alpine, Franco tells Tom Clarkson the incredible story of how a boy from the outskirts of Buenos Aires reached the pinnacle of motorsport. Franco remembers the sacrifices he made by moving abroad as a young teenager to pursue his dream, the challenges of leaving his family and living on his own in a different continent, and how an unexpected visit from an F1 legend inspired him to keep going. Franco also talks about how his experience at Alpine compares to his time at Willams, what his relationships with teammate Pierre Gasly and Alpine Executive Advisor Flavio Briatore are like, and his future in F1.

The race to succeed Jagmeet Singh has begun, but most of the NDP's big names are steering clear. Post-election, vibes within the party have been bleak, mired with handwringing, infighting, and no clear guiding vision.

This week on Kliq This, Kevin Nash sits down with Sean Oliver and opens up about the toll of endless travel, film shoots that collapse before they even start, and the kind of business dealings that make you wonder how anyone keeps their sanity. The conversation doesn't stay surface level for long—it turns into a raw look at the grind, the frustration, and the strange balance of chasing opportunity while trying not to get taken for a ride From movie productions falling apart in Syracuse to Comic Con appearances overseas, Kevin pulls the curtain back on what it really feels like when you're promised one thing but handed something very different. Money, contracts, and broken deals aren't just business—they're battles over respect, loyalty, and how much your name is worth in a world that rarely plays fair But the episode isn't just about numbers and negotiations. There are detours into locker rooms that smelled like desperation, NBA salaries that make today's contracts look surreal, and even Brett Hart invoking Kevin's name in ways that spark a whole new discussion about loyalty and perception inside the wrestling world As the talk deepens, Nash lays bare his complicated relationship with WWE, what kept him loyal longer than he expected, and the point at which loyalty turns into leverage. Questions about who should lead the company in the future, whether Sean Michaels could ever step into Triple H's shoes, and how friendships change the way business gets done all find their way into the mix By the time the conversation wraps, you're left with more than just stories. You're left with a glimpse into the psychology of contracts, the unspoken cost of fame, and the kind of perspective that only comes from surviving decades at the top of two industries that chew people up. It's not nostalgia, it's not bitterness—it's Kevin Nash talking plainly about the price of playing the game BlueChew-Visit BlueChew.com and try your first month of BlueChew FREE when you use promo code NASH -- just pay $5 shipping.

Mark Carney is nation building. To do that, he needs to rebuild the Canadian Armed Forces. Between decades of neglect and the forces' own goals by way of bad headlines that's no mean feat.Rebuilding the military, from new recruits to new fighter planes, will take more than promising government money. There's a pitch that needs to be made to the Canadian public and partnerships to be forged with the private sector for investment.So how will the Prime Minister convince the Canadian public and private investors to rebuild the embattled Canadian Armed Forces? Are Carney's nation-building plans the new National Dream or just national daydreaming?Professor Wesley Wark, defence and security analyst and former national security and intelligence advisor to Stephen Harper, joins us today.Host: Bruce Thorson (Reporter, Senior Producer)Caleb Thompson (Mixing & Master), max collins (Director of Audio), Jesse Brown (Editor and Publisher)Fact checking by Julian AbrahamTrumpet by: Tristan CapacchioneAdditional music by Audio NetworkFurther ReadingWesley Wark Substack Liberals Spending $2B to Boost Military Pay - CBC Sponsors: oxio: Head over to canadaland.oxio.ca and use code CANADALAND for your first month free!

Shoot us a Text.Episode #1116: CarGurus shuts down CarOffer, trimming its wholesale tech reach. Ford opens a Long Beach EV hub to take on low-cost rivals. And OpenAI's GPT-5 rolls out to all ChatGPT users, promising smarter, faster AI for everyone.Show Notes with links:CarGurus will shutter its wholesale digital marketplace CarOffer less than two years after fully acquiring it, citing a volatile pricing environment and dealer demand for more flexibility.CEO Jason Trevisan said the company explored alternatives but winding down was the only option.The closure impacts Dealer-to-Dealer, a wholesale platform for dealer-to-dealer used inventory trades, and Instant Max Cash Offer, a consumer vehicle acquisition tool feeding dealer inventory pipelines.The shutdown will run through 2025, costing $14M–$19M including $5M–$7M in restructuring.However, CarOffers tech will remain, with Trevisan saying “We will retain and build on the underlying technology…capabilities that…remain central to CarGurus' sourcing strategy,”On the heels of Ford's “Model T moment” we covered yesterday, the manufacturer has opened a 250,000-square-foot Electric Vehicle Development Center in Long Beach, CA, focused on bringing affordable EVs to market, including a new mid-size pickup.The facility includes design review spaces, EV testing labs, a fabrication shop, and a digital visualization room to accelerate product development.This is part of Ford's first low-cost EV platform initiative, led by ex-Tesla engineer Alan Clarke, aiming for simpler, more efficient builds.An initial team of 350 employees will grow by 100; the group was formerly known internally as the “Skunkworks Team” for its rapid, innovative approach.A new trademark filing suggests Ford's upcoming midsize electric pickup could revive the Ranchero nameplate, a nod to the classic coupe-pickup sold from 1957–1979, with the EV version expected to debut in 2027.“The goal is to define a new era for electric vehicles,” said Jolanta Coffey, Ford's Director of Global New Model Launch.OpenAI has launched GPT-5, its fastest and most capable AI model yet, giving both free and paid ChatGPT users access to advanced reasoning for the first time. Just 2.5 years after GPT-4 debuted, the release marks another step toward integrating AI deeper into business, education, and everyday workflows.CEO Sam Altman says going back to GPT-4 after testing GPT-5 was “quite miserable,” citing improvements in speed, reasoning, and usability.New “safe completions” reduce outright refusals while keeping answers within safety guardrails, alongside lower hallucination rates and better handling of complex logic.Free-tier ChatGPT users get a reasoning model; Plus and Pro users get higher usage limits, with GPT-5 Pro for advanced performance.Join Paul J Daly and Kyle Mountsier every morning for the Automotive State of the Union podcast as they connect the dots across car dealerships, retail trends, emerging tech like AI, and cultural shifts—bringing clarity, speed, and people-first insight to automotive leaders navigating a rapidly changing industry.Get the Daily Push Back email at https://www.asotu.com/ JOIN the conversation on LinkedIn at: https://www.linkedin.com/company/asotu/
