This week the I am reading from Nicole Strickland's book 'The Afterlife Chronicles: Exploring the Connection Between Life, Death and Beyond' and Mike Damante's book 'Above the Fold and the Fringe: How UAPs Became Mainstream News'. NicoleWhat happens to us when we die? Does the human soul survive death? How can we communicate with loved ones in the spirit world? Are those residing beyond the veil in some faraway land or are they close by and within our reach? These are age-old questions permeating our collective consciousness. These queries not only entice humanity to understand the hereafter but also to connect with those dwelling within it.We're in a time of transition where individuals are embracing the notion of life after death.Each of the topics and stories presented in The Afterlife Chronicles, harmoniously unite as a gateway to the connective bridge between mortality and the afterlife. Crafted by highly respected afterlife and paranormal researcher Nicole Strickland, this heartfelt book reads like a love letter to the hereafter and provides the motivation, purpose, and know-how to further understand the profound relationship between both worlds.In this book, you'll read about:• Recognizing the signs of and reasons why the spirit world reaches out to the living and vice versa• The afterlife according to various cultures• The influence of the Spiritualist movement on modern-day spirit communication and paranormal research• The role of intuition and mind/body/spirit in connecting with the afterlife• Examining the profound connectedness between the living and spirit worlds• Near-death experiences and the keys to understanding life after death• Theories on the survival of human consciousness after death• Common misconceptions of the afterlife• Traditional and alternative methods to communicate with the spirit world• The power of spirit guides in fostering the connection between mortality and the afterlife• How moving through grief and loss can help you further connect with departed loved onesFinally, the many contributors who opted to share their accounts and stories with the spirit world and beyond will further entice you to learn more about the deeply interwoven union between mortality and those across the veil on the other side.Perhaps, you've had a heartfelt experience with a loved one in the afterlife and don't know where to turn. Look no further as The Afterlife Chronicles will encourage you to openly share your story and in turn, will motivate others to share theirs. Similar to a domino effect, more people will become aware of and learn more about the beautiful rapport between both worlds.If you're curious about the enigmatic wonders of the afterlife, you'll be enchanted by The Afterlife Chronicles: Exploring the Connection between Life, Death, and Beyond.Beyond, where physical death is not an end, but a beginning.BioNicole Strickland is a well-respected afterlife & paranormal researcher, author, podcaster, and speaker from San Diego, California.

Fishing along the banks of the Cape Fear River with three co-workers and his teenage son, he walks away from the group and cries out to God in a desperate prayer for help. Suddenly, a UFO appears and saves his life and cures him of his illness. Experiencing four hours of missing time, he returns to his group to find them dismayed. Terrified, they run for their lives as several UFOs chase them home.This is the true story of hope, love, lies and deception, involving officials from the U.S. Government, CIA, NASA, a string of professors, and MUFON.Prepare to go on a spiritual journey of awakening and transformation with a visit from the Lady, remote viewing, assassination plot of the Pope, dripping orbs, a burning tree, the Monroe Institute, and healing the son of an elite Washington DC power broker with ties to the IC and the White House. 15 years on, the phenomena still visits the Bledsoe family and affects the lives of people who come in contact with them. To outsiders this can be seen as evil, but those who are willing to be open and accept it, it is a blessing.Are the events that are playing out around the world controlled and shaped by the Phenomena? The U.S. Government says UFOs are real. And millions of people believe GOD is real. So what do we do about UFOs and GOD? Mark 10:27 says, "All things are possible with God." So, UFOs must be interrelated with GOD if holding the scriptures to be true. It would be impossible to have one without the other.BioChris is a UFO experiencer and a strong believer in God. His life, now that his children are grown, is centered around telling his story and understanding why his experiences are increasing. He is passionate about keeping an open mind and engaging those who question who we are and why we are here. Most importantly he's working to understand the consciousness connection with UFOs and how it impacts his faith. Like most of us, he is driven to know the answer to the age-old question, "Are we alone?" Chris lives in North Carolina with his wife, Yvonne, and their two dogs.https://ufoofgod.com/https://www.pastliveshypnosis.co.uk/https://www.patreon.com/alienufopodcast

We've covered paranormal investigating and ghosts, haunted places and haunted history, witchcraft, magic and tarot, cryptids, UFOs and now, we're going to tie ALL of them together. As much as that's possible? Here's a hint - maybe Bigfoot was the inspiration for Chewbacca? Maybe Bigfoot IS Chewbacca? That would be something, wouldn't it? Well, we'll dive into the ties that bind the paranormal together, plus religion, super heroes, myths, conciousness and the ever-elusive third eye we all might have. All subjects covered in Mike's latest paranormal phenomenon of a book, “Stranger Than Fiction”. Which you should read. Music of the episode courtesy of the band Light Years with the spooky love song “I Met You On Halloween” (I don't know if it's a spooky song or not, but it sounds like it).

Mike Damante won me over a while ago with his “Punk Rock and UFOs” series of books, a mind-blowing series on paranormal weirdness and UFO related wildness. Mike's latest book, “Hey Suburbia” also won me over - but in a different way. “Hey Suburbia” talks about punk rock, pop-punk and emo of the 1990's and early 2000's, mostly. There's nostalgia, to be sure. But there's also quite a bit about the course and trajectory of punk rock from those golden days up to the present day. Let me tell you, I listened to a bunch of Jimmy Eat World after I read the book, I cannot tell a lie. But I also looked at the future of punk rock in a different light after reading the book. With more hope, I should say. Well! Mike joins the Bobcast to talk all things PUNK in this episode, from how it all started for him, to answering that age old question - were big punk bands of the 90's (that were successful) sell-out's? Listen and find out! Also, Michael Crusty stops by with a brand new edition of Crusty's Corner to talk with Nick from Canadian Rock Wrestling and play a PUNK song by Debt Cemetery. Lastly, War On Women appear in the episode with the song “White Lies”, which was hand picked by Mr. Damante just for this episode! Let's get PUNK with Mike Damante and freinds!

Welcome to the third and final (for now?) episode in the UFO Stories series! This one has five stories of UFO sightings, told by the witnesses themselves. Sarah Snallygaster, Miski Dee Rodriguez, Jessica Komassa, Davey Tilt and Mike Damante have popped in from the Ultraverse to tell their tales of strange lights and objects in the sky. Mike Damante is the author of the “Punk Rock and UFOs” series of books, so we'll spend a little more time with him to talk more indepth all about UFOs, the recent Pentagon UAP report, Mike's history with the paranormal and more! Carolyn Mauricette will fly by with another installment of The Celluloid Catacombs, this time talking about the parasitic alien thriller “The Puppet Masters”. The “Out Of This World” melodies in this episode are provided by The Ejected, Striker and Get Married and guess what? ALL THE SONGS ARE ABOUT ALIENS OR UFOS. Well, the Get Married song is a cover of The Misfits song “Astrozombies, so that counts, right? This whole Interstellar Episode is brought to you by Ethletic Shoes, the finest vegan, fair trade and sustainably sourced shoes in the land. Pop on that tin foil helmet and give this one a listen!

On episode 67 of SOMEWHERE IN THE SKIES, Ryan welcomes Mike Damante back to the show to discuss his newly released follow-up book, Punk Rock and UFOs: True Believers. Punk Rock and UFOs: True Believers is a call to arms to the common populace and UFO community to come together to better understand the unexplained. It tackles topics like the process of belief, religion, mythology, popular culture, disclosure, media, advances, science, the unexplained, the UFO phenomena becoming mainstream all in a thought-provoking package aimed at the common reader, as well as the UFO community. In a time where UFOs are slowly creeping more and more into the mainstream consciousness, it is important that we as a society WANT to know the truth, and are actively seeking it. The book is a wake-up call to the every-day person and looks to bridge the gap to the UFO research community. The book was written to simultaneously synergize both groups to a higher level of thinking. This, and so much more, is discussed this week. We also get Mike's thoughts on the developments happening with To the Stars Academy and we even dive into his own personal beliefs on if we are truly being visited by some sort of non-human intelligence(s). Guest Bio: Mike Damante worked for the Houston Chronicle as a copy editor, writer, reporter and web producer. He currently produces their "MIKED" music blog and has interviewed bands and musicians like Bad Religion, Blink-182, Taking Back Sunday, Tom DeLonge, Tegan and Sara, Aerosmith, B.o.B and countless others. He’s appeared on Fox 26 Houston, Spectrum News Austin, “Somewhere In The Skies” podcast, Rogue Planet TV, “UFO Classified” with Erica Lukes, Radio Wasteland, Newsweek, the Houston Chronicle and other media outlet, and has been considered one of the “best fresh faces in the field."
