Guest host Connie Willis (info) welcomed Dr. Luba Diangar for the entire 4-hour program to discuss the Monicor device, which uses AI to create personalized frequency therapies for health improvement. Diangar shared her unique journey into health and wellness, which began as a child influenced by her scientist neighbor, Killian, a pioneer in aura photography. From a young age, she observed the impact of diet on a person's aura and was fascinated by the intersection of health, frequencies, and science. Her family's health-conscious habits further shaped her outlook on nutrition and well-being. Her experiences eventually led to a deep interest in frequency medicine, which laid the groundwork for her innovative approach to personalized health technology.Diangar spoke about the groundbreaking advancements of the Monicor device, a patented technology originally designed to promote overall health and cognitive performance. The device has evolved to integrate AI, offering personalized biofeedback to address stress and health risks at the organ and cellular levels. Unlike similar devices that rely on generic frequencies, Monicor tailors endogenous frequencies specific to each individual's needs to achieve higher precision and effectiveness, she explained.Diangar elaborated on the Monicor device, emphasizing its advanced use of AI and frequency-based technology to address stress and energy imbalances within the body. The device focuses on mitochondrial activity, recognizing that stress or low energy levels in specific organs often precede illness. By calculating personalized frequencies, Monicor restores organ function to help the body maintain balance and prevent disease.According to Diangar, Monicor's applications span physical and mental health, addressing conditions like PTSD, long COVID, and emotional stress. The device integrates with acupuncture principles and cognitive enhancement protocols, improving mental focus, memory, and overall well-being. Diangar highlighted its ability to differentiate between injuries and diseases. The device's personalized approach allows it to provide real-time monitoring and adjustments during treatments, which enhances its efficacy and user satisfaction, she said. Clients have reported transformative outcomes, from alleviating tinnitus and reducing stress to promoting happiness and energy recovery.Diangar pointed out that Monicor's design accommodates multiple users within a household. Each unit is meticulously calibrated, avoiding mass production to maintain its bespoke quality. She underscored Monicor's potential to complement traditional therapies and enhance recovery from injuries, illnesses, and cognitive challenges.

Paul Nugent, director of The Aetherius Society, joined guest host Connie Willis (info) for the entire program to discuss his journey of spiritual awakening and the work of Dr. George King, who channeled messages from cosmic beings through yogic trances. He recounted working in the wine trade under Nicolas Belfrage, whose interest in Eastern philosophy introduced him to the concepts of karma and reincarnation. This spurred a broader search for meaning beyond conventional life paths. The journey ultimately led Nugent to The Aetherius Society, founded by Dr. King, a man believed to have been in contact with higher intelligence from Venus and other planets.King's profound spiritual abilities, developed through rigorous yogic practice, allowed him to channel messages from Cosmic Masters that formed the basis of the society's teachings, Nugent explained. These communications, first introduced in public forums like London's Caxton Hall and televised interviews, conveyed timeless truths about love, consciousness, and humanity's interconnectedness with the cosmos. Nugent noted the extraordinary challenges faced by King, especially during the Cold War era when skepticism and government suspicion loomed. Despite this, the inherent profundity of his teachings helped establish The Aetherius Society, which continues to share these cosmic messages globally, he said.According to Nugent, the teachings channeled through King align with those of great spiritual figures like Jesus, Buddha, and Krishna, focusing on love, service, and enlightenment. He emphasized that these messages aim to awaken humanity to a greater cosmic reality, urging people to transcend materialism and recognize their spiritual essence. The journey involves raising consciousness, serving others, and understanding Earth as a living, evolving entity, he continued. Nugent highlighted the pivotal time humanity faces, with technological advancements like AI juxtaposed against the spiritual awakening needed to navigate such changes.Nugent also spoke about his connection with King and The Aetherius Society. He recalled being deeply moved by King's cosmic transmissions and the spiritual truths they revealed, which inspired him to dedicate his life to the society. Nugent described the ongoing evolution of humanity and Earth as part of a divine cosmic plan, underscoring the urgency of spiritual awakening in an era of accelerating change. He advocated for humanity to rediscover its divine potential, embrace love and service, and align with the cosmic forces guiding our collective journey toward enlightenment.

Author of "The Plejaren Diaries," Zaysan "Z" Saldausky (William Saldausky), best known as "Z," joined guest host Connie Willis (info) for the entire 4-hour program to discuss his interactions and deepening relationship with a group of aliens. Saldausky's encounters with a mysterious extraterrestrial group began in the swamps of Florida. He recounted helping a stranded alien woman, which led to an ongoing relationship with what he described as a space-based family. These beings, resembling humans but with distinct features like large eyes, introduced him to a profound sense of trust and love, Saldausky disclosed. He said his connection with these beings has influenced his worldview and inspired him to document his experiences in a series of books.Saldausky revealed how their advanced society values curiosity and love, driving them to explore everything from insect life to the fabric of space. One notable example is their creation of "gray balls," a nutrient-dense food resembling small marbles that can taste and feel like any desired dish, from steak to lobster, he reported. These are grown in highly advanced agricultural systems using living soils combined from other planets. Their space travel technology is equally fascinating, allowing instantaneous jumps across thousands of light-years by matching the ship's frequency to its destination, he added.Saldausky also shared profound insights into his space-based family's view of existence, emphasizing the role of love and consciousness. He explained their belief in quantum entanglement as the essence of life and the interconnectedness of all beings. According to this perspective, time is an illusion, and all lives—past, present, and future—occur simultaneously as projections within a larger consciousness. Saldausky illustrated this concept with a metaphor of each life as a television show viewed on different screens in a timeless state of being. These experiences have reshaped his understanding of reality and humanity's potential, encouraging an embrace of unconditional love and the rejection of deception to unlock deeper capabilities within ourselves.

In the first half, Jeremiah Horstman joined guest host Connie Willis (info) to discuss the recent UFOs over Arizona thought to be made of plasma, as well as other strange sightings in the state. According to Horstman, the plasma orbs have been appearing consistently in the Sycamore Canyon area. "They were coming up almost the exact same time in the exact same region every night," he shared. These orbs have sparked a collaborative investigative effort, with enthusiasts posting photographs and videos on social media. "The more eyes, the better," Horstman said. To see his photos of these lights, click here.Horstman then told listeners how he prefers experiential knowledge over academic credentials when assessing UFO reports. "I would much rather talk to a [real witness] who dropped out of high school... than a person who sits in an armchair and has a master's degree," he insisted. Horstman noted that understanding these sightings often requires thinking outside the box, as many phenomena operate beyond human sensory perception.The discussion also touched on government secrecy surrounding UFO technology, with Horstman revealing that a facility near Sedona has become a new hub for advanced research previously conducted at Area 51. "It's always been a rumor... that there are government underground facilities in the Sedona region," he explained. Horstman claimed there are non-human entities working alongside humans, developing technology that defies our understanding of physics. He relayed a story from a trusted source who said one of these non-human creatures lifted him with just one arm after a confrontation in the desert.-------------------The second half featured Open Lines, where listeners called in to discuss topics of interest. Jeff from Culver City, California brought up the many recent mysterious drone sightings, proposing four theories: they could be adversarial drones, holographic illusions designed to manipulate public perception, an alien scouting program for potential invasion, or technological experiments gone awry.Gerald from the Bronx shared a personal encounter with NYPD drones outside his apartment, describing how he felt observed and saw them return to a black van. He expressed skepticism about government transparency, citing his grandmother's belief that no country is truly free.Donny from Central California revealed a chilling account involving his late friend Jim, who observed a large, silent drone hovering over his RV on a ranch. Military jets scrambled to the area shortly after, and personnel approached Jim, asking if he had seen anything unusual. They confiscated his phone but returned it wiped clean. Donny also mentioned strange circumstances surrounding Jim's death, including finding titanium on the ranch and the lack of transparency regarding the autopsy.Ruth from Maryland expressed her gratitude for the night's discussion and shared her own experience with drones, mentioning her late friend who worked on unmanned projects with high security clearance. She described observing large, silent drones that are only visible under certain light conditions. Ruth inquired about the history of underground facilities, specifically how far back they extend, given her proximity to significant sites like Pax and Webster Field. She also noted feeling slight movements in her RV, suggesting possible underground activity.

Sean Worthington, CEO of RAIDA Tech, joined guest host Connie Willis (info) to discuss Cloud Coin, his vision for a perfect money system, and the challenges faced in implementing it. Worthington elaborated on his vision for a perfect money system through Cloud Coin, positioning it as a more efficient and environmentally friendly alternative to cryptocurrency. Unlike blockchain-based systems, Cloud Coin operates on a simple file containing passwords and a serial number. Transactions occur by exchanging these files, allowing instant authentication without requiring accounts, logins, or keys. According to Worthington, the system eliminates the need for energy-intensive mining, achieving millions of transactions per second without fees or excessive electricity consumption.Worthington described Cloud Coin's global infrastructure as being designed to resist systemic failures and government interference. Its decentralized servers span countries like Russia, Australia, and Argentina, ensuring continuous operation. He asserted that this system aligns with libertarian ideals of free trade and privacy, offering a digital equivalent to physical cash that protects against surveillance. Cloud Coin's adaptability could even empower nations, potentially transforming currencies like the U.S. dollar into untraceable yet globally effective digital cash, he suggested.Worthington also predicted an explosive growth in AI by 2025. He foresees AI's integration into everyday life, with innovations like household robots potentially becoming commonplace. While acknowledging AI's productivity and cost-effectiveness, he warned of its potential risks, such as misuse, fake content, and the looming possibility of AI developing uncontrollable behaviors. He emphasized the need for containment strategies and punitive measures for misuse to prevent catastrophic outcomes. Worthington advised individuals to embrace AI tools to enhance their work efficiency and adaptability, noting that leveraging AI expertise may help secure employment in an evolving, AI-driven economy.------------------------------------------During the second half of the program, Ed Weigle reflected on his extensive career as a voice actor and radio personality, discussing his work with various celebrities and iconic figures. He shared memories of his early interest in radio and voice acting, starting at age 13, which eventually led to working with some of the biggest names in the entertainment industry. He said his journey into the field was deeply rooted in his passion for classic broadcasting, which is reflected in his collection of vintage microphones.Throughout his career, Weigle had the privilege of meeting and collaborating with well-known figures such as Mr. Rogers, Arnold Palmer, and Jimmy Stewart. He fondly recalled the deep respect and camaraderie he shared with Mr. Rogers and Arnold Palmer, emphasizing their kindness and the unique connections they fostered in his life. For example, he produced a major ad campaign featuring Palmer, and his hometown ties to Mr. Rogers made their relationship particularly meaningful.Weigle spoke warmly about Jimmy Stewart, with whom he formed a personal bond through a portrait he created, and shared admiration for the actor's legendary career and integrity. He reflected on lighter and more humorous moments with other celebrities. He recounted his encounters with Jerry Springer, describing him as a generous and approachable personality despite his controversial television legacy. He also mentioned unique interactions with older Hollywood icons like Gloria Stuart, showcasing the variety of people he met throughout his career.

Mindfulness expert Paul Sugar joined guest host Connie Willis (info) to discuss his journey with Kabbalah and his work in health and medicine. He defined mindfulness as the practice of keeping one's attention anchored in the present moment, using the body, breath, thoughts, and emotions as entry points. This practice allows individuals to connect with their "ground of being," facilitating a flow state or peak performance, he explained. Sugar underscored the significance of mindfulness in addressing the modern epidemic of chronic fear and anxiety, which is often rooted in the autonomic nervous system's "fight or flight" mode. Through mindfulness, individuals can reconnect with their bodies, reverse stress responses, and experience life more fully, he revealed.Sugar reported on his pioneering research with first through third graders in the 1990s showing that children grasp mindfulness quickly, enabling them to cultivate present-moment awareness and manage stress effectively. Partnering with nonprofits, he has made mindfulness accessible to millions of children through scalable programs. He also commented on the field of epigenetics and how it may demonstrate how mindfulness can positively influence gene expression.Sugar spoke about his introduction to Kabbalah as a transformative experience that helped him address existential fears and questions, particularly following a near-death experience. During this pivotal time in 1969, he joined a Kabbalah study group, which involved studying texts and practicing Kabbalistic meditation. This practice was paired with his involvement in yoga study groups, which provided spiritual frameworks to explore life's deeper meanings. Sugar pointed out that Kabbalah, like mindfulness and other contemplative traditions, offers profound insights into self-awareness and a path to inner peace.

On celebrating and taking a break, and I'm sharing some great new endorsement quotes for NEVER THE ROSES!
