Dive into the chilling depths of one of America's most enduring UFO mysteries. If you're hooked on West Virginia cryptids like the Mothman, Bigfoot, or Grafton Monster, or fascinated by 1950s UFO sightings, alien encounters, and government conspiracies, this episode uncovers the eerie truth behind the Braxton County Monster. Host MF Thomas, who personally trekked to Braxton County last summer, unravels a 1952 close encounter of the third kind that left eight witnesses terrified and the world questioning: Was it an extraterrestrial visitor, a mechanical robot from another world, a misidentified natural phenomenon, or a secret missile test suppressed by the US government? Packed with eyewitness accounts, physical evidence, and lingering enigmas, this podcast episode blends history, folklore, and the unexplained—perfect for fans searching for information about the 1952 Flatwoods Monster. Picture this: It's September 12, 1952, twilight in sleepy Flatwoods, West Virginia—a state dripping with eerie legends like the Mothman, Grafton Monster, and Snarly Yow, even inspiring Silent Hill's foggy nightmares. Amid the 1950s UFO frenzy, with the "Invasion of Washington" buzzing D.C. and Life Magazine hyping flying saucers next to Marilyn Monroe, a group of boys playing football spots IT: a massive fiery object streaking the sky. Pulsing cherry red to orange, trailing flames, wobbling like a dying aircraft—not a meteor, but something controlled. It vanishes behind a hill on the Fisher farm, igniting chaos. Freddie May, just 11, recalls a "round ball of fire" spiraling like a leaf. Local bigwig Jack Davis swears it's a lit-up oblong craft, slowing to land, brighter than mercury vapor. No noise, just eerie descent. The boys bolt home, dragging mom Kathleen May, 35, into the fray. With 17-year-old Eugene Lemon and his dog, plus pals Neil Nunley (14), Teddie Neal, Edison May (13), Ronald Shaver, and tiny Tommy Hyer (6), they form an unwitting expedition. Flashlights in hand, they trek half a mile through darkening woods, spotting a red-purple flare atop the hill. Hearts pounding, they push on—unaware they're stepping into nightmare fuel. The path steepens: Mist rolls in, thick and foreboding. A sharp metallic stench hits—like burning TV tubes—searing throats, watering eyes. Kathleen shudders, still smelling it decades later.

Cyprus sits at a persistent impasse, divided between the Republic of Cyprus in the south and the Turkish-backed administration in the north. Despite decades of negotiations, reunification remains elusive, and the island has quietly become one of the most militarised borders in Europe, patrolled by UN peacekeepers, flanked by British bases, and overshadowed by tens of thousands of Turkish troops. While Ankara now frames Cyprus as a lower strategic priority, its military presence on the island remains substantial, and recent tensions over gas exploration and border infrastructure suggest the status quo may be more fragile than it appears. So why does Turkey still maintain such a significant footprint in Northern Cyprus? How stable is the current arrangement? And what would happen if a local incident triggered a wider escalation? To unpack these questions and assess the island's geopolitical future, we turn to our panel of experts. On the panel this week: - James Ker-Lindsay (Kent University) - Rich Outzen (The Atlantic Council) - Matthew Bryza (Straife) Intro - 00:00 PART I - 03:27 PART II - 26:10 PART III - 46:03 Outro - 57:25 Follow the show on https://x.com/TheRedLinePod Follow Michael on https://x.com/MikeHilliardAus Support the show at: https://www.patreon.com/theredlinepodcast Submit Questions and Join the Red Line Discord Server at: https://www.theredlinepodcast.com/discord For more info, please visit: https://www.theredlinepodcast.com/ Learn more about your ad choices.

Send us a textWhat if the exhaustion you feel despite a full night's sleep isn't just poor sleep quality, but something actively draining your energy? Drawing from both decades of personal experience and years of helping others, I explore the hidden realm of sleep protection and why it should be as fundamental to your nightly routine as brushing your teeth.Sleep isn't merely about rest—it's when we're most vulnerable to energetic interference. Think of Freddy Krueger from "Nightmare on Elm Street"—while fictional, this dream demon captured something real about how certain entities can invade our dreams, feeding off our fear and manipulating our dream experiences. Having battled dream invasions since childhood, I've finally found techniques that protect my energy and now share these with you.The signs of energetic interference often disguise themselves as everyday problems: constant arguing with loved ones, uncontrollable cravings, addiction patterns, making choices that don't align with your true self, or that frustrating feeling that every time you get ahead, something pulls you back down. These aren't simply bad luck or character flaws—over 90% of people experience these dark force issues without recognizing them for what they are. When we protect our energy, especially during sleep, these patterns can dramatically change.By implementing proper sleep protection like Astral Armor, you'll notice profound differences in your clarity, relationships, and manifestation abilities. You'll wake up more energized rather than drained, with your emotions and thoughts truly your own. This isn't about fear—it's about empowerment. Once these forces realize they can't affect you, your entire life experience transforms. Ready to reclaim your energy and protect your most vulnerable moments? This episode offers the first steps toward energetic sovereignty during sleep and beyond.Ready for the full DF training / coaching? Grab your spot in Light it UP!

This week on Cold War Cinema, we discuss Robert Stevenson's 1949 drama, I Married a Communist, also known as Woman on Pier 13. This Hollywood production is one of the most storied—and notorious—anti-communist films of the early Cold War era. The movie revolves around a San Francisco shipping exective who worked his way up from the docks, as a stevedore, only to find himself embroiled in a Communist plot to sabotage a labor contract. Join hosts Jason Christian, Tony Ballas, and Paul T. Klein as we consider: How Hollywood colluded with the government to portray Communists as nihistic, intellectual, unfeeling and yet effinate organized criminals. The condescention at the heart of anti-Communist propaganda in the US that implies that ordinary Americans are too "dumb" to recognize when they are being duped. The paradoxical role of unions in New Deal liberal ideology as a potential bulwark against Communists. The perrenial recycled anti-Communist tropes in American political rhetoric to this day. _____________________ We love to give book or film recommendations on the podcast, so here are ours for this episode: Paul recommends Foster Hirsh's 2023 book Hollywood and the Movies of the Fifties: The Collapse of the Studio System, the Thrill of Cinerama, and the Invasion of the Ultimate Body Snatcher—Television. Tony recommends Gerald Horne's 2011 book, Fighting in Paradise: Labor Unions, Racism, and Communists in the Making of Modern Hawai'i. Jason recommends Rebecca Prime's 2013 book, Hollywood Exiles in Europe: The Blacklist and Cold War Film Culture. _____________________ Like and subscribe to Cold War Cinema, and don't forget to leave us a review!

US billionaires and sovereign wealth funds are going to get more active in global sports investing, according to Andalusian Credit Partners. “The US invasion into other markets is just getting started,” Aaron Kless, the US middle-market direct lending platform’s chief executive officer, tells Bloomberg News’ James Crombie and Bloomberg Intelligence’s Arnold Kakuda in this episode of the Credit Edge podcast. “A lot of the largest sovereign wealth funds are interested in getting deeper into sports investing,” adds Kless, whose firm focuses on sports, media and entertainment. Kless and Kakuda also discuss the next big sports deal, the high cost of being a fan and how not to get trapped in the vanity play.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
