This throwback episode features a great conversation with Dr. Dave Whitlock! They discuss the unique opportunities, lifestyle perks, and financial benefits of practicing dentistry in rural communities. Having transitioned from high-competition, high-cost metro markets like Phoenix and Dallas to rural Eastern Kentucky, Dr. Whitlock shares how moving away from urban saturation allowed him to lower his living costs, reduce practice overhead, and secure an overwhelming demand for dental care. Together, they break down common misconceptions surrounding rural dentistry, discuss the overwhelming student debt burden facing new graduates, and highlight how stepping off the beaten path can offer clinicians better schedule flexibility, greater practice profitability, and an improved quality of life.

August 4th, 2026 EP:105 UFOs, Spirits, and the Nature of Reality w/Dr. Jonathan Kendall Are UFOs spacecraft from distant planets—or manifestations from another level of reality? Dr. Jonathan Kendall joins ParaTruth: Reborn to discuss his book, The Metaphysics of UFOs, which examines the physical and spiritual nature of UFOs and related unexplained phenomena. Dr. Kendall is a board-certified physician specializing in internal medicine and nephrology. His medical background gives him a unique perspective when considering potential physiological, neurological, and psychological explanations for extraordinary encounters. During this conversation, we explore: The limitations of the extraterrestrial hypothesis UFOs and parallel realities Connections between UFOs and spiritual encounters Abductions and altered states of consciousness Similarities between abductions and near-death experiences UFO encounters and poltergeist activity Cryptids and Men in Black The possible survival of consciousness after death How physics and metaphysics could intersect What these experiences reveal about the nature of reality The question may no longer be whether we are alone in the universe. It may be whether we truly understand the universe—or reality itself. Guest Bio: Jonathan Kendall is a medical doctor, board certified in Internal Medicine and Nephrology, and an author and independent researcher of consciousness, religion, spirituality, and anomalous phenomena. In his writings, he approaches these controversial subjects with the same scientific rigor that has served him in fifteen years of medical practice in Eastern Kentucky. Jonathan has authored two books. His most recent volume, The Metaphysics of UFOs, published by Llewellyn Worldwide, examines the evidence underlying UAPs, ultimately reaching the conclusion that a litany of compelling cases establishes the authenticity of the phenomenon while presenting a challenge to conventional views of reality. In Seeing the Messiah, published by Resource Publications, Jonathan presents the findings of more than a century of psychical research on apparitions, and compares the phenomena to the reported postmortem appearances of the Lubavitcher Rebbe and Jesus Christ. Combining the scrutiny of scholarly resources across the fields of medicine, psychology, theoretical and quantum physics, psychical research, ufology, and theology, Jonathan's primary aim in writing is to generate meaningful conversation regarding some of life's most profound mysteries, including the understanding of spiritual experiences, the question of postmortem survival, and the nature of reality itself.United Public Radio & UFO Paranormal Radio www.uprntalkradio.com

Author Mandi Fugate Sheffel has always kept a journal, which she thought of "as this internal thing, a summary of my thoughts and feelings for the day."She had to learn to pay more attention to sensory details.

She also discusses why she opened a bookstore in Eastern Kentucky and the joys of attending the Appalachian Writers' Workshop. 

This episode I am reading from Jon Kendall's book 'The Metaphysics of UFOs: Evidential Case Studies on UAPs, Paranormal Phenomena, and Spiritual Experiences' A systematic examination of the physical and spiritual nature of UFOs and other unexplained phenomena. Are UFOs visitors from our universe or parallel realities? Do they come from the same spiritual realm as our dearly departed? How are they connected to cryptids and paranormal activity? Sharing numerous evidential case studies, Jonathan Kendall explores the seemingly irreconcilable physical and spiritual aspects of UFOs/UAPs. The evidence he presents has implications that could lead to revolutionary breakthroughs in the areas of communications, energy use, medicine, interstellar travel, religion, and the nature of reality. This eye-opening book investigates the connection between UFOs and kindred phenomena like monsters, Men in Black, and poltergeists. It also explores the harrowing world of UFO abductions and why the aftereffects are so similar to those of both near-death experiences and encounters with mystical realms. These case studies shatter conventional views of reality and prove that far more is at stake than answering the question, "Are we alone in the universe?" Bio Jonathan Kendall is a medical doctor, board-certified in Internal Medicine and Nephrology, who practices in Eastern Kentucky. Outside of medicine, Jonathan is an author with a passion for exploring the unexplained — from apparitions and consciousness studies to UFOs and paranormal phenomena. Jonathan is the author of Seeing the Messiah and The Metaphysics of UFOs, books that examine extraordinary human experiences through the lenses of science, history, philosophy, and metaphysics. Drawing from both his medical background and years of independent research, Jonathan seeks to thoughtfully examine mysteries that continue to challenge conventional understanding. https://jonathankendallmd.com/ https://www.amazon.com/Metaphysics-UFOs-Evidential-Paranormal-Experiences-ebook/dp/B0FRXLVNHP https://www.pastliveshypnosis.co.uk/https://www.patreon.com/alienufopodcasthttps://simonbown.com/My new book, Aspects of Alien Abduction https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0GRRPCT9YZen AI bit.ly/zenAI_bpp_ufo Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Hospital-acquired pneumonia is the number one hospital-acquired infection in the United States — and it often starts with something as simple as a missed tooth brushing. After 37 years of consultations in Eastern Kentucky ICUs and nursing homes, one dentist decided to fix it.In this episode, Dr. Greg Baker and Dr. Brandon Wilde of Toothsure join us to share how they're building OralVac and OralVac+ — preloaded, measured-dose oral care devices designed around two years of ICU nurse feedback — from their home base in Hazard, Kentucky.The conversation covers the personal moment behind the company (Greg's mother spending a week in the ICU with only a cup of water for oral care), navigating the FDA as a combination drug-device targeting Q4 2026 clearance, the funding journey from self-funded to Keyhorse Capital and a seven-figure state grant, and the $7.3M manufacturing facility bringing 60 jobs to Perry County.It's a story of Appalachian grit: a clinician-founder betting his legacy on the idea that Eastern Kentucky can build world-class medical devices.Hosted by Logan JonesMiddle Tech is proudly supported by:KY Innovation → kyinnovation.comAwesome Inc → awesomeinc.org

Roadcase was back in Nashville where I interviewed @laidbackcountrypicker just before their show at The Basement last week, and I'm super excited to share this interview with you!! Dave Prince and his wife Teresa (aka Honey, in hair curlers, moo-moo and sunglasses) are the self-described Hillbilly Power Duo that make up the remarkable story behind Laid Back Country Picker. Skilled lifelong musicians, both Dave and Honey are retired school teachers from Eastern Kentucky who have successfully forged a path in the music business after 25 years as educators. Their vibe is unmistakable, and forms the enduring charm beneath the surface of these serious country rockers. Dave (with Honey, who is his curiously silent partner) talked to me about his background as he shared with me the stories that reflect a lifetime of performance both in the classroom and, most recently, on stage -- and shares with me the story of one special student of his, Tyler Childers, with whom Dave shares a special bond. This is a truly heartwarming story of reaching extraordinary success -- no matter at what point in life it may arrive.=======================================Chapters:00:00 - Episode Intro with Host Josh Rosenberg05:41 — Opening and setup05:58 — Intro to Dave Prince and Honey06:30 — Growing up in Eastern Kentucky09:08 — Family poverty, bootlegging, and survival11:48 — Childhood freedom, family, and country life13:22 — First in the family to graduate high school and go to college15:17 — Music dreams, cover bands, and paying the bills16:35 — Moving toward original music and Luna and the Mountain Jets18:21 — Teaching career and Teacher of the Year18:50 — The teacher who changed everything20:41 — Going back to school and starting teaching22:15 — Meeting Tyler Childers in class23:18 — Playing together and Tyler covering Luna songs24:20 — Early gigs together and the Rhyming25:52 — Red Rocks and the live recording26:25 — The Laid Back Country Picker shirt and character27:33 — Luck, preparation, and opportunity29:46 — Playing a stadium show with Tyler29:46 — Recording in Nashville and Tyler's role30:14 — Pandemic changes the band setup30:59 — Honey's stage outfit and the band identity32:35 — Retirement and more time for music41:19 — What's next for Laid Back Country Picker42:30 — Midwest dates with Driving and Crying44:48 — How Australia happened by chance46:04 — Australian crowds and musical influence48:01 — “McGoffin County Cadillac” and the song that launched things49:16 — “They Only Come Around” and Eastern Kentucky history50:11 — Using LBJ archival footage in the video51:00 — Closing thoughts and Episode Wrap-up with Host Josh Rosenberg=======================================For more information on Roadcase:https://linktr.ee/roadcasepod and https://www.roadcasepod.comOr contact Roadcase by email:  info@roadcasepod.comRoadcase theme music:  "Eugene (Instrumental)" by Waltzer

“The shortest distance between you and me is a story.” — Colum McCannIn 1932, Albert Einstein wrote to Sigmund Freud asking if humanity could cure its “lust for hatred.” Freud said no. Mankind's instinct for death and destruction could not be eliminated. That said, the Viennese doctor went on, the desire to end war should never be abandoned. What was needed was a “mythology of the instincts” and a “community of feeling.” In other words: a story. The book sold 2,000 copies. By 1933, the Nazis had seized power and the two men had fled into exile.Colum McCann — National Book Award-winning novelist, author of Let the Great World Spin and American Mother — has spent the last dozen years trying to build Freud's community of feeling. His organisation, Narrative Four, now operates in 35 countries with 1,200 school partners and 285,000 participants. The method is deceptively simple: two strangers exchange personal stories, then retell each other's story in the first person. Overpowered by empathy, they realise they're not so different.At 21, Colum McCann bought a typewriter thinking he'd be the next Kerouac and produced a foot and a half of gibberish. He then went on the road and spent eighteen months cycling across America. Everyone he met wanted to tell him their story. That's his story, but not where it ends. Five Takeaways•       Einstein Asked Freud If Stories Could Prevent War: In 1932, Einstein wrote to Freud asking if humanity could cure its “lust for hatred.” Freud said no — but added that the desire to end war should never be abandoned. What was needed was a “mythology of the instincts” and a “community of feeling.” Basically: storytelling. The book sold 2,000 copies. By 1933, Hitler was in power.•       You Tell My Story, I Tell Yours: That's the Narrative Four method. Pairs of strangers exchange personal stories, then retell each other's story in the first person to the group. Something fires in the brain — dopamine, memory, imagination, empathetic engagement. It's been done 285,000 times in 35 countries. Oxford and Ohio State confirmed it: polarisation drops dramatically.•       South Bronx Kids Met Eastern Kentucky Kids. They Were Terrified: One group Black and immigrant, the other white or Cherokee. One urban, one rural. One blue, one red. Put them in a room and they're terrified of each other — until they tell a personal story. Not a didactic story, not a political argument. Something that opens up the rib cage. Then they realise they're not so different.•       Yesterday Was Big Tobacco's Moment for Social Media: The landmark court verdict on Facebook and YouTube addiction dropped the same day we recorded this conversation. McCann's son has been saying for years that social media will be the cigarettes of the future. Social media promised everyone a platform for their stories. What it delivered was isolation, loneliness, and the epidemic of kids who say “I don't have a story.”•       Stories Can Do Anything. They Can Never Take Them Away: McCann bought a typewriter at 21, thought he'd be the next Kerouac, produced a foot and a half of gibberish, and spent eighteen months cycling across America instead. He learned that everyone has a story and a deep desire to tell it. Books may go the way of opera. AI may recombine what we've already written. But they can never take away stories. About the GuestColum McCann is the author of eight novels, three collections of stories, and two works of non-fiction. Born in Dublin, he is the recipient of the US National Book Award, the International Dublin Literary Prize, and an Oscar nomination. He is the president and co-founder of Narrative Four, a global non-profit that uses storytelling to build empathy and community. He lives in New York.References:•       Narrative Four — the global story exchange organisation. Get involved, become a facilitator, or get your school on board.•       Episode 2840: What Came First: Stories or Language? — Kevin Ashton on the story before the word. McCann watched it and agrees.•       Episode 2844: Was St. Francis of Assisi the First Silicon Valley Critic? — Dan Turello on agency, embodiment, and why Dante wrote without being able to edit.•       Episode 2846: How to Be Agreeably Disagreeable — Julia Minson on disagreeing better. McCann's method is the narrative version of Minson's science.About Keen On AmericaNobody asks more awkward questions than the Anglo-American writer and filmmaker Andrew Keen. In Keen On America, Andrew brings his pointed Transatlantic wit to making sense of the United States — hosting daily interviews about the history and future of this now venerable Republic.

A bill allowing for tax credit scholarships to public and private school students is headed to the Governor's desk, the DOJ sues Kentucky for refusing to turn over voter registration data, the FBI director visits Eastern Kentucky, and what the end of reformulated gas means for Louisville.

This week Jazmin explained the ruling by the Supreme Court of Kentucky, which struck down the legislature's attempts to fund charter schools in the state. It was a unanimous ruling, which is unusual!

Forward Radio's proud community partner, the Greater Louisville Sierra Club (https://sierraclub.org/kentucky)organized this February program, focused on Central Appalachia as a central site of mass incarceration. Called "Cages in the Coalfields: Development, Criminalization, and Incarceration in Central Appalachia," it was held Feb 17, 2026 at 7:00pm at Crescent Hill Community Ministries (150 State St.) Central Appalachia is home to 16 prisons; there are 8 prisons alone in Eastern Kentucky, where full and overcrowded jails extend the expansive carceral geography to the local level. While these institutions reflect our national and state investment in criminalization and punitive sentencing policies, they also serve as rural development projects bound in various ways to the decline of coal. From calls for rural jobs in corrections to prisons built on mountaintop removal sites to jails as revenue strategies, the carceral expansion in the region must be understood as a response to multiple crises. This talk, by justice studies scholar and Sierra Club Executive Committee member Judah Schept, examines both the crises and the ways that prisons and jails have responded, as well as the work of the "Building Community Not Prisons" coalition to stop the construction of FCI Letcher (Federal Correctional Institution), the newest prison planned for the region. Judah Schept is a Professor in the School of Justice Studies at Eastern Kentucky University. He is the author of Coal, Cages, Crisis: The Rise of the Prison Economy in Central Appalachia (New York University Press, 2022) and Progressive Punishment: Job Loss, Jail Growth, and the Neoliberal Logic of Carceral Expansion (New York University Press, 2015). He is co-editor of The Jail is Everywhere: Fighting the New Geography of Mass Incarceration (Verso Books, 2024). On Truth to Power each week, we gather people from around the community to discuss the state of the world, the nation, the state, and the city! It's a community conversation like you won't hear anywhere else! Truth to Power airs every Friday at 9pm, Saturday at 11am, and Sunday at 4pm on Louisville's grassroots, community radio station, Forward Radio 106.5fm WFMP and live streams at https://www.forwardradio.org

In this episode, we journey across continents and into some of the most remote corners of Bigfoot territory, beginning in Queensland, Australia, where a member of the Kabi people shares a deeply personal experience tied to a sacred site along the Mary River. Camping beneath the stars near the mysterious “Gimpy Pyramid,” he recounts a night that left him shaken and forever changed, offering rare insight into Indigenous traditions surrounding the Hairy Man.We then travel to the Appalachian foothills of Eastern Kentucky, where a seasoned hunter describes a sound he heard before sunrise—something so unnatural it kept him frozen in his tree stand for hours. From there, the trail leads into rural Georgia near Thomaston, where a massive figure is seen crossing a narrow road near an old pig processing facility, an encounter later echoed by unsettling reports from the surrounding hills.The episode closes in the lowcountry of South Carolina, near the floodplains of the Cooper River and the edges of Francis Marion National Forest, where a long-haul truck driver comes face to face with something towering and unmistakably not human.
