Bizarre News - November 2025 | Paranormal Podcast In this month's Bizarre News, we bring you a collection of cutting-edge scientific discoveries and paranormal mysteries that blur the line between science fiction and reality. We kick things off with the interstellar comet 3I/Atlas, which has sparked intense debate in the scientific community after Harvard physicist Dr. Avi Loeb identified twelve significant anomalies suggesting it might not be a comet at all—but potentially a nuclear-powered alien spacecraft. With NASA pointing fifteen different space missions at this object, including the James Webb Space Telescope, we explore the strange characteristics that have scientists puzzled: unexplained frontal glow instead of a traditional tail, industrial alloy-like composition, and a retrograde trajectory with only a 0.2% probability of occurring naturally. We also dive into groundbreaking warp drive research that suggests faster-than-light travel may actually be theoretically possible, and surprising findings that humans possess "remote touch" abilities previously thought to exist only in animals like sandpipers, allowing us to sense buried objects without direct contact. On the paranormal side, we investigate which state claims the title of most haunted in America—and the answer might surprise you. Using data compiled from over 1.8 million ghost encounter records across social media platforms, books, and paranormal databases, researchers determined that New York takes the crown with its perfect storm of old stone buildings, high population density, and centuries of accumulated energy. We also share a compelling Bigfoot sighting from Pennsylvania's I-80, where a witness observed a tall, dark figure with a slender build gliding effortlessly across four lanes of highway and over a guardrail in a matter of seconds, leaving them with an unforgettable encounter story they'll be sharing for years to come.

Can an ultra-compact dwarf galaxy have a supermassive black hole at its center? Are there galaxies with supermassive black holes that are offset from their galactic centers? To find out, Dr. Charles Liu and co-host Allen Liu welcome “the other” Dr. Matt Taylor, an Assistant Professor of Astronomy at the University of Calgary, who joins us from the control room of the largest astronomical telescope in Canada, at the Rothney Astrophysical Observatory (RAO) in Alberta, Canada. As always, though, we start off with the day's joyfully cool cosmic thing, which starts with the discovery of a supermassive black hole in the middle of an ultra-compact dwarf galaxy M60-UCD1 located in the Virgo galaxy cluster. That led to the discovery of more 4 UCDs in the Virgo Galaxy Cluster and 1 in the Fornax galaxy clusters, but then the limits of technology prevented the discovery of any additional UCDs. But now, by using the James Webb Space Telescope, Matt and his fellow researchers (including Dr. Vivienne Baldassare, our former guest for Black Holes and Space Junk with Vivienne Baldassare) have just published a paper about their discovery that in the smallest, lowest mass UCD yet found, they found a roughly 2,000,000 solar mass black hole. Basically, that's a tiny galaxy to hold a supermassive black hole, and Matt is sure there are many more of these waiting to be discovered. After that Matt tells us about his atypical journey to astronomy, including his first career – as a professional chef. When cooking stopped being fun, Matt enrolled at a local community college and “moved from gastronomy to astronomy” as Allen puts it. Our first audience question comes from our Patreon Patron Taylor L, who asks, “Is it possible dark energy and the acceleration of the universe's expansion could be explained by the idea that the black hole we live in is constantly devouring matter from outside?” Matt passes on determining whether or not we live inside a black hole. But, he explains that while at the galactic level expansion is happening on a really large scale, at a smaller scale like our local group of galaxies (Milky Way, Andromeda, and local dwarf galaxies), our mutual gravitation counteracts that expansion. Matt goes on to discuss how accretion disks are what makes it possible to “see” a black hole, but that ultra-compact dwarf galaxies don't have gas and dust forming accretion disks. Instead, they use stellar velocities to find black holes in UCDs. Next up, Matt tells us about some of the research he's doing into archetypal compact elliptical (cE) galaxies, which have the mass of a giant galaxy put into the volume of a dwarf galaxy, and how black holes appear in these systems. And Matt dangles another upcoming paper about galaxies with supermassive black holes that are offset from their galactic centers. For our next audience question, Pshemo asks: “We often say gravity is weak compared to other forces. But in the right regimes, like near black holes and neutron stars, or on large cosmic scales, it dominates every other interaction. Should we stop calling gravity a weak force?” It's a thought-provoking question with an even better answer, so please watch or listen to the episode to hear it yourself from Matt. If you'd like to know more about Matt, you can check out his website, mataylor5128.github.io.

Q: How did God create Himself? Where did God come from? How can God see everyone at the same time? Summary In this episode, Dr. E and Hanna dive into two main questions: Where did God come from? and How can God see everyone at the same time? Dr. E explains that Scripture reveals God as eternal—He has always existed and always will. Passages like Psalm 90 and Isaiah 40 affirm God's existence “from everlasting to everlasting,” reminding us that He alone is the Creator and sustainer of all things. From the vastness of galaxies seen through the James Webb Telescope to the microscopic precision of an atom, creation itself bears God's fingerprints. They also explore God's omniscience and omnipresence—His ability to see and know everything at once. Using Psalm 139 and 2 Chronicles 16:9, Dr. E unpacks how God's eyes roam the earth to strengthen those whose hearts belong to Him. Unlike Satan, who prowls step by step, God perceives all at once and intimately knows every detail of our lives. He doesn't just see humanity collectively—He sees you personally. This eternal, all-knowing God is not distant but deeply present, caring, and actively engaged with those who are fully His. Takeaways God has always existed—He has no beginning and no end. Scripture, not speculation, defines our understanding of God's eternality. Creation—from galaxies to atoms—reveals God's creative power and design. God is omnipresent, omniscient, and omnipotent—everywhere, all-knowing, all-powerful. Psalm 139 reminds us that God knows our thoughts, actions, and words before we do. God's all-seeing nature isn't distant; it's personal, intimate, and loving. Find more episodes of Ask Dr. E here.

The 365 Days of Astronomy, the daily podcast of the International Year of Astronomy 2009
Those tricky next steps. Dear Cheap Astronomy – Could war get us into space? There's been a long-running dialogue here at Cheap Astronomy about what economic drivers might transform us into a proper spacefaring species with Moon bases, Mars bases and all that. And well, its been hard to think what economic drivers really might work. Space is hard and it's also darned expensive. Tourism could be a driver, after all there has been a bit of millionaire tourism happening, mostly just flights above the atmosphere. Dear Cheap Astronomy – What is new space? You may have heard people talk about – old space and new space. Old space is like NASA pouring billions into the slow plodding development of huge one-off projects like the Space Launch System and the James Webb Space Telescope where they operate with extreme risk aversion, absolutely determined that absolutely nothing must go wrong. New space is like Space X, where they quickly launch prototypes and when those prototypes blow up they have the data to explain why so the next ones don't have that flaw and if they blow up then they get rid of those flaws as well, and so on.

Segment 1 • Dr. Jason Lisle distinguishes astrology's superstition from astronomy's worship-worthy science. • The James Webb Telescope's discoveries confirm creationist predictions. • The universe shouts intelligent design and divine order—not cosmic accident. Segment 2 • “Intelligent Design” without Christ stops short of truth; science points to the Savior. • Every Big Bang “fix” (inflation, antimatter, etc.) exposes faith in speculation over observation. • Scripture alone makes sense of the cosmos—science confirms it; sin corrupts it. Segment 3 • Denying a literal Adam dismantles the gospel: no actual fall means no need for a Redeemer. • Genesis reads as history, not myth; Jesus and the apostles affirmed it as fact. • The cross makes no sense if sin didn't enter through one real man. Segment 4 • Old-earth models (Day-Age, Gap Theory) break Hebrew grammar and biblical chronology. • Death before sin contradicts God's “very good” creation and the atonement itself. • The timeline debate isn't about science—it's about trusting God's Word over man's ideas. ___ Thanks for listening!

Astrophysicists may have spotted evidence for “dark stars,” an unusual type of star that could possibly have existed in the earliest days of the universe, in data from the James Webb Space Telescope. Instead of being powered by nuclear fusion as current stars are, the controversial theory says that these ancient dark stars would have formed by mixing a huge cloud of hydrogen and helium with a type of self-annihilating dark matter. Dark stars would not have been dark—researchers believe that if they existed, they would actually have been bigger and brighter than current stars.Astrophysicists Katherine Freese, who first proposed the idea of dark stars in 2007, and Cosmin Ilie, who detected the possible signs of the dark stars, join Host Ira Flatow to discuss the theory. Guests:Dr. Katherine Freese is a theoretical astrophysicist and a professor of physics at the University of Texas at Austin.Dr. Cosmin Ilie is an assistant professor of physics and astronomy at Colgate University.Transcripts for each episode are available within 1-3 days at sciencefriday.com.

Stars feel like a fundamental feature of the Universe – as essential as planets, galaxies and space itself. But since we know the Universe had a beginning (the Big Bang), there must also have been a first star. Before it, there was only darkness; after it, the cosmos as we know it began to take shape. Exactly what those first stars were like – and how they transformed everything that followed – remains one of astronomy's great mysteries. It's a mystery that astrophysicist Dr Emma Chapman has dedicated much of her career to solving. In this episode, Emma joins us to talk about her book First Light: Switching on the Stars at the Dawn of Time, recently updated to include discoveries from groundbreaking telescopes like the James Webb Space Telescope.

On July 1, 2025, a mysterious object was detected within our solar system. Soon afterward, it was confirmed by NASA as the third known interstellar object ever observed by astronomers, and given a formal name: 3I/ATLAS. Since that time, the object's unusual trajectory, massive size, and anomalous behavior have captured the fascination of the scientific community, leading to questions about whether it is indeed simply an interstellar comet bearing unusual traits or whether it could be something more complex. This week on The Micah Hanks Program, we delve into the curious story behind 3I/ATLAS and look at what we know about the object, as well as why several experts have advanced theories involving extraterrestrial technologies in relation to the mysterious interstellar visitor coursing through our solar system.

Hotel Mars, Weds, Oct. 1, 2025 with Joel on Little Red Dots and JWSTOur guest for this Hotel Mars program was Dr. Joel Leja, a cosmologist at Penn State University. Dr. Leja discussed the discovery of mysterious red dots observed in the first images from the James Webb Space Telescope. These dots, initially thought to be tiny galaxies or massive structures, presented a puzzle as they were brighter and redder than expected, challenging existing cosmological models. Despite the initial surprise, further data analysis revealed that these objects were likely extremely compact systems, much smaller than the Milky Way, which Joel and his team are still working to understand fully.The three of us discussed the James Webb Space Telescope's discovery of distant objects, estimating their existence around 11.9 billion years ago, with some as early as 5.7 billion years. Dr. Leja noted that these objects primarily exist in the early universe, with one rare exception in the nearby universe. The discussion focused on the mystery of these objects' existence, given the limited time available for their formation, and the need to determine their nature and origin.Joel also discussed the discovery of bright objects in the early universe, initially thought to be galaxies but later identified as supermassive black holes due to the presence of hot swirling gas. Despite this explanation, several mysteries remain, including how these massive black holes formed so quickly and their unusual lack of expected features like glowing cosmic dust. Joel noted that while the black hole hypothesis is the leading explanation, numerous other theories exist, making it an exciting time in astrophysics.Our guest discussed the concept of “little red dots” in the early universe, which may be supermassive black holes surrounded by dense gas, resembling stars. John, in the last segment of the program, asked what he would do with an unlimited budget. Our guest explained that this hypothesis, known as the black hole star hypothesis, is the only one that currently aligns with observed data. Joel expressed interest in exploring this idea further, potentially with an enhanced version of the James Webb Space Telescope, to understand the formation and properties of the first stars in the universe. He also mentioned using the unlimited budget to build many more JWST's.Special thanks to our sponsors:Northrup Grumman, American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics, Helix Space in Luxembourg, Celestis Memorial Spaceflights, Astrox Corporation, Dr. Haym Benaroya of Rutgers University, The Space Settlement Progress Blog by John Jossy, The Atlantis Project, and Artless EntertainmentOur Toll Free Line for Live Broadcasts: 1-866-687-7223For real time program participation, email Dr. Space at: drspace@thespaceshow.comThe Space Show is a non-profit 501C3 through its parent, One Giant Leap Foundation, Inc.

Guest Dr. Joel Leja talks about the little red dot discovery using James Webb Space Telescope and the blackhole start theory resulting from this discovery. Read the full summary at www.thespaceshow.com and doctorspace.substack.com for this program date.
HEADLINE: Solving the Mystery of Bright Red Dots in the Early Universe GUEST NAME: Dr. Joel LejaSUMMARY: John Batchelor interviews Dr. Joel Leja about "little red dots"—extremely bright, mysteriously common objects discovered in the early universe by the James Webb Space Telescope. These enigmatic red dots appear to be early supermassive black holes, possibly tens of millions of solar masses, revealed by intensely hot gas swirling at tremendous velocities around them. Their unexpected abundance and size so close to the universe's beginning poses a fundamental challenge to current theories of cosmic evolution and black hole formation. The discovery suggests that supermassive black holes formed much earlier and more rapidly than previously thought possible, requiring astronomers to reconsider models of how the first galaxies and their central black holes emerged from the primordial darkness. Dr. Leja explains that while the JWST data strongly indicates these are black holes based on spectroscopic signatures, the mechanism that allowed such massive objects to form so quickly after the Big Bang remains one of astronomy's most perplexing new mysteries. The research highlights how advanced telescopes continue to overturn established assumptions about the early universe's structure and evolution.
HEADLINE: Solving the Mystery of Bright Red Dots in the Early Universe GUEST NAME: Dr. Joel LejaSUMMARY: John Batchelor interviews Dr. Joel Leja about "little red dots"—extremely bright, mysteriously common objects discovered in the early universe by the James Webb Space Telescope. These enigmatic red dots appear to be early supermassive black holes, possibly tens of millions of solar masses, revealed by intensely hot gas swirling at tremendous velocities around them.

CBS EYE ON THE WORLD WITH JOHN BATCHELOR SHOW SCHEDULE 9-18-25. GOOD EVENING. THE SHOW BEGINS IN THE HALLS OF PARLIAMENT. FIRST HOUR 9-915 HEADLINE: UK Labour Party Faces Crisis as Starmer's Leadership Falters GUEST NAME: Anatol Lieven SUMMARY: Sir Keir Starmer faces "extremely unusual" unpopularity despite Labour's large majority. Potential replacements include Andy Burnham and Lucy Powell. Discontent stems from poor judgment, lack of progressive vision, and resentment over Jeremy Corbyn's removal. Labour risks massive defections to Corbyn's new radical left-wing party if Starmer's leadership continues. 915-930 CONTINUED HEADLINE: UK Labour Party Faces Crisis as Starmer's Leadership Falters GUEST NAME: Anatol Lieven SUMMARY: Sir Keir Starmer faces "extremely unusual" unpopularity despite Labour's large majority.

Labour risks massive defections to Corbyn's new radical left-wing party if Starmer's leadership continues. 930-945 HEADLINE: Nvidia's Strategic $5 Billion Investment in Intel Reshapes US Chip Industry GUEST NAME: Chris Riegel SUMMARY: Nvidia, led by Jensen Huang, invests $5 billion in Intel, gaining access to manufacturing capabilities while Intel gets crucial funding. This partnership reduces Nvidia's reliance on TSMC and aligns with President Trump's "national champion strategy." The deal comes amid China's ban on Nvidia chips and China's struggle for technological self-sufficiency. 945-1000 HEADLINE: India-China-Russia Axis Dismissed as Propaganda Despite Modi-Xi Handshake GUEST NAME: Sadanand Dhume SUMMARY: Sadanand Dhume dismisses speculation of an India-China-Russia "Eurasian axis" following Modi-Xihandshake at SCO summit as "nonsense." Relations remain hostile due to border disputes with tens of thousands of troops deployed. China's ties with Pakistan, supplying 80% of arms and investing through CPEC, further strain India relations. SECOND HOUR 10-1015 HEADLINE: FBI Closes Investigation Despite Massive Chinese Casino Corruption in US Territory GUEST NAME: Grant Newsham SUMMARY: Former CNMI Governor Arnold Palacios requested FBI investigation into $1.6 billion missing COVID funds and Chinese casino corruption. Imperial Pacific International (IPI) allegedly facilitated money laundering "hundreds of billions," influenced politicians including Governor Torres. CNMI remains only US territory granting visa-free access to Chinese visitors, raising national security concerns. 1015-1030 CONTINUED HEADLINE: FBI Closes Investigation Despite Massive Chinese Casino Corruption in US Territory GUEST NAME: Grant Newsham SUMMARY: Former CNMI Governor Arnold Palacios requested FBI investigation into $1.6 billion missing COVID funds and Chinese casino corruption.

THIRD HOUR 1100-1115 HEADLINE: US Industrial Policy Criticized as Ad-Hoc State Capitalism GUEST NAME: Veronique de Rugy SUMMARY: Veronique de Rugy analyzes government support for Intel and Nvidia's investment as state capitalism, distinct from cronyism. She criticizes government intervention, predicting poor outcomes when businesses operate under political pressure. The Trump administration's industrial policy lacks clear philosophy, creating uncertainty that could "kill investments" through unpredictable, reversible decisions. 1115-1130 HEADLINE: King Charles III Hosts Magnificent State Dinner at Windsor Castle GUEST NAME: Conrad Black SUMMARY: King Charles III and Queen Camilla hosted the President and First Lady at Windsor Castle in a "magnificently done" state dinner. The King demonstrated graciousness and dignified conduct. The President's speech acknowledged America's origins from the British Empire and highlighted Anglo-American cooperation, referencing partnerships like Churchill-Roosevelt and Reagan-Thatcher. 1130-1145 HEADLINE: Trump EPA Faces Uphill Battle to Reverse Greenhouse Gas Endangerment Finding GUEST NAME: Jonathan Adler SUMMARY: The Trump administration's EPA attempts to reverse the 2009 "endangerment finding" for greenhouse gases under the Clean Air Act. Recent Supreme Court rulings, including Loper Bright, ironically make reversal more difficult by eliminating Chevron deference. Courts will focus on statutory language and prior decisions, requiring the EPA to justify reversing decades of statements. 1145-1200 CONTINUED HEADLINE: Trump EPA Faces Uphill Battle to Reverse Greenhouse Gas Endangerment Finding GUEST NAME: Jonathan Adler SUMMARY: The Trump administration's EPA attempts to reverse the 2009 "endangerment finding" for greenhouse gases under the Clean Air Act.

Earlier this summer, astronomers discovered something strange whizzing past Jupiter: an interstellar object. Scientists named it 3I/ATLAS. It's only the third interstellar object ever observed, and it's due to leave the solar system by the end of the year, so the race is on to learn as much as we can about it. Host Flora Lichtman talks with astrochemist Stefanie Milam about what this object could teach us about other solar systems—and ours.And, for the past two years, researchers have been studying samples from the near-Earth asteroid Bennu, trying to tease out details about its origins, and what they tell us about our solar system. Researcher Jessica Barnes describes a new analysis of Bennu samples that found stardust, the residue of ancient exploding stars, older than our solar system.Guests: Dr. Stefanie Milam is an astrochemist at NASA and a project scientist for the James Webb Space Telescope. Dr. Jessica Barnes is an associate professor in the Lunar and Planetary Laboratory at the University of Arizona.Transcripts for each episode are available within 1-3 days at sciencefriday.com.Subscribe to this podcast.
