Step into the shadowy fringes of the unknown with My Dark Path as we unravel one of the most terrifying monster encounters of 1952—the night the Flatwoods Monster descended on West Virginia.Host MF Thomas transports you to the misty hills of Flatwoods, Braxton County, where a group of boys playing football spot a fiery object streaking across the twilight sky and crashing on a remote hillside. Joined by their mother Kathleen May and young National Guardsman Gene Lemon with his dog, they climb toward a pulsing red flare—only to confront a towering 12-foot entity with an ace-of-spades shaped hood, glowing greenish-orange eyes like searchlights, a metallic body that hovers just above the ground, and a sickening metallic stench like burning electronics. The dog flees in terror, witnesses suffer immediate nausea and raw throats, while skid marks, oily residues, strange metal fragments, and mysterious federal agents posing as reporters swarm the town—complete with vanished evidence and media frenzy that still defy explanation decades later.Was the Flatwoods Monster a genuine extraterrestrial visitor, a mechanical probe from another world, a secret government missile test and cover-up, or simply mass hysteria triggered by a meteor?This episode blends eerie narration with historical context, skeptical scrutiny, and believer's evidence. Perfect for fans of unsolved enigmas, cryptids, and the paranormal.

What if the most revolutionary thing you can do right now is introduce yourself to your neighbor and ask to borrow some salt?In this episode, Eileen is joined by Amber and Taylar, co-hosts of the Waking Up the Witch podcast — a storytelling show exploring life, death, religion, spirituality, sex, magic, and everything in between. Amber owns Moon Be's Wellness, a witchy brick-and-mortar boutique in southern Oregon, and is a Reiki master and psychic gifts teacher. Taylar is a hairstylist, community connector, and self-described magic-maker who believes her gift is helping people see their own power. Together they also run Moonlight and Magic, an events company bringing witchy community together in person.This conversation wanders beautifully through spiritual origin stories, the return of village culture, what manifestation actually means when you strip away the toxic positivity, and why authenticity might be the most powerful thing any of us can offer the collective right now.In this episode:-Amber's origin story: a Wiccan mom, healing oils made from kitchen spices as a child, Reiki, and the psychic gifts she once thought were a curse-Taylar's path: Catholic kindergarten, The Secret, a psychic hairstylist, too much wine, one shared microphone, and a podcast born from pure curiosity-Why the witch wound still shows up in how we hide ourselves, even from the people closest to us-The difference between fitting in and authentic belonging, and how living authentically is what plugs you into the collective circuit board-Why the law of attraction falls short without community, action, and reckoning with systemic harm-Victory Gardens, borrowing cups of sugar, and why the village is both the antidote and the answer-The healing that can only happen in relationship, not in solo inner work-Asking for help as a radical act, especially for women conditioned to never be a burden-Why spirituality doesn't have to be serious: it can be lipstick at the grocery store, a bird outside your window, or dancing at the gay club on Saturday"Get comfortable being uncomfortable. That's what leads you to the parts you're supposed to be in this world, in your community, in the revolution." — Amber"Spirituality can be silly and playful and messy. It's really just asking you to be present." — TaylarConnect with Amber and Taylar on InstagramCheck out the Waking Up the Witch Patreon communityJoin me for the next Wheel of the Year CeremonySubscribe to Eileen on Substack Take the Which Witch Are You QuizOrder Awaken to the Magic WithinConnect with Eileen on Instagram Follow Eileen on Insight Timer Send Eileen an email

Step into the shadowy fringes of the unknown with My Dark Path as we unravel the eerie luminous spheres, glowing foo fighters, and humanoid encounters over war-torn Poland during World War II. Host MF Thomas transports you to occupied Warsaw and remote villages where resistance scouts, civilians, and soldiers witnessed the impossible: 18-year-old Kazimierz Bzowski's sighting of a 25-foot metallic sphere with raspberry and bluish-green hues flying low over Bonifraterska Street near the smoldering Warsaw Ghetto, completely impervious to German gunfire before vanishing toward the Old Town; the chilling Nowiny encounter where a 16-year-old and his companion faced a glowing hat-shaped craft and smiling pinkish-grey humanoids who tried to lure them aboard before an invisible force knocked them down; multiple foo fighter reports of intelligent glowing orbs darting playfully over Polish ships and uprising battlefields without hostility; and the fiery brick-red spinning disk rolling horizontally at impossible speeds across the Czudec valley—complete with Bzowski's theories of energetic stitches in Earth's energy web, hints of long-term alien surveillance, striking parallels to modern sphere, disc, and tictac UFOs, and insights from the host's own research journey across Poland. Were these secret Nazi experiments, natural anomalies, misidentified flares, or extraterrestrial observers monitoring humanity's darkest hour? This episode blends eerie narration with historical context, skeptical scrutiny, and believer's evidence. Perfect for fans of unsolved enigmas, WWII UFOs, foo fighters, and the paranormal.

Explore the enigmatic realm of unidentified flying objects through three rare, obscure photographs that have intrigued UFO researchers, skeptics, and conspiracy enthusiasts. Captured in a time before digital editing, these images—from snowy Poland, wartime China, and sunny Italy—defy simple explanations and hint at extraterrestrial observers challenging our reality.MF Thomas starts by honoring the infamous 1975 Billy Meier photo from Switzerland: a silver disc "beamship" that inspired The X-Files' "I Want to Believe" poster. Debunked as a hoax with models, strings, and confirmed by his ex-wife Kalliope and experts like Joe Nickell, it contrasts with the episode's more resilient cases.In Part 1, travel to 1959 Muszyna, Poland, where Dr. Stanislaw Kowalczewski photographed a flattened oval UFO during a winter holiday. Emerging from a yellow-orange cloud as a luminous orb, it appeared as a dark saucer on film. Experts in Warsaw papers like Stolica affirmed it 90% likely a self-luminous flying saucer. Linked to Polish UFO lore like Gdynia and Emilcin, it faded under Soviet secrecy—alien craft or artifact?Part 2 delves into WWII Pacific Foo Fighters, focusing on the 1942 Hopeh UFO photo from Tianjin, China, under Japanese occupation. This street-level shot shows a domed silver disc overhead, with pointing pedestrians. Ufologist Shi Bo attributes it to an American witness; analyses dismiss planes or shells. Tied to sightings like Sergeant Brickner's 150+ wobbling objects over Tulagi, it anchors Asian UFO history.In Part 3, relive Italian pilot Giancarlo Cecconi's 1979 Treviso encounter. Radar spotted an erratic object with a blue trail; Cecconi snapped 80+ photos of a 25-foot matte-black cigar-shaped craft with a dome, maneuvering at 300 mph. Backed by witnesses and researcher Antonio Chiumiento, who uncovered potential Ministry cover-ups. Parallels include Chiles-Whitted (1948), RB-47 (1957), and Gemini 4 (1965) cylinders.For all references and music, visit https://www.mydarkpath.com/78-historical-ufo-photosBuy MF Thomas' novels on Amazon.

Clif and Marty debate the film's direction, pacing and if the science is 'hard' or not.Then they turn to Moonlight, Barry Jenkin's Academy Award winning coming-of-age drama starring Mahershala Ali. Clif and Marty discuss quiet storytelling, unforgettable performances and how the film's themes of identity and loneliness create a powerful counterpoint to The Martian. Sometimes the biggest journey isn't through space. It's figuring out who you are.Along the way: 1980s slang, listener mail and potatoes as a survival strategy.#TalkingPondo #FilmPodcast #TheMartian #Moonlight #MattDamon #MahershalaAli #MovieReview #SciFiMovies Support the showFind our films here:The Love Song of William H ShawRevenge of ZoeWriting Fren-ZeeMaking Pondo on FacebookX (formerly Twitter):@MakingPondoInstagramMaking Pondo on Letterboxd:Season OneSeason TwoSeason ThreeSeason FourTheme Song "The Rain" by Russ PacePhotos by Geoffrey Notkin

Step into the shadowy fringes of the unknown with My Dark Path as we unravel the hypnotic revelations of the 1960s with Dr. Leo Sprinkle, the mild-mannered psychologist who became the go-to hypnotist for alien abductees.Host MF Thomas transports you to the quiet campus of the University of Wyoming in Laramie, where soft-spoken Dr. Ronald Leo Sprinkle guides ordinary people into trance to recover memories of the impossible: Nebraska police sergeant Herb Schirmer paralyzed by greenish gas aboard a disc-shaped craft piloted by gray-skinned entities wearing winged serpent emblems and issuing telepathic warnings of a human breeding program, North Dakota mother Sandy Larson lifted by orange spheres to face mummy-wrapped beings with segmented metallic arms who removed and examined her brain through a nostril probe, Wyoming rancher Pat McGuire telepathically instructed to drill a miracle well on his dry land before facing repeated abductions and cattle mutilations, and New Mexico waitress Myrna Hansen witnessing mid-air cattle dissections before descending into the vast caverns of Dulce Base lined with translucent vats of dismembered bodies and floating human-alien hybrid fetuses—complete with government disinformation campaigns, Sprinkle's own childhood abduction memory of a tall mentor aboard a craft, and careers shattered by ridicule that continue to defy explanation.Was Dr. Sprinkle unlocking genuine extraterrestrial encounters through hypnosis, shaping false memories via suggestion, or unwittingly aiding a covert government psy-op that destroyed lives?This episode blends eerie narration with historical context, skeptical scrutiny, and believer's evidence. Perfect for fans of unsolved enigmas, UFO hypnosis, and the paranormal.

Step into the shadowed woods of early 20th-century Italy with My Dark Path as we uncover two extraordinary close encounters that echo the mysteries of the alleged 1933 Magenta RS/33 UFO crash and recovery.Host MF Thomas guides you through the humid Ferretto woods near Terontola, where battle-hardened veteran Astore Chiucini stumbles upon a glowing green circular craft and two hooded figures performing calm, deliberate repairs—before the silent machine rises with an earth-shaking roar and vanishes into the night. Then travel to the damp woodlands outside Abbiate Guazzone in Lombardy, where factory worker Bruno Facchini witnesses a metallic disc with bluish lights and small suited beings. When discovered, one fires a crackling fan of white-blue light that paralyzes and burns him—leaving physical scars, strange lightweight metal fragments, and a lifelong silence broken only years later.These two ordinary Italian men—years apart—described nearly identical scenes: landed circular craft, hooded or helmeted figures in tight suits working on repairs, silent departures defying known aviation, and physical evidence that lingered. Set against the backdrop of secret post-war aircraft testing near SIAI-Marchetti facilities in Vergiate and the rumored RS/33 program, these cases blur the line between coincidence and hidden context. Were they experimental human tech, or something truly not of this world?This episode blends immersive narration, historical context, skeptical analysis, and the enduring power of eyewitness testimony from men who offered to swear oaths or kept fragments hidden under their beds. Perfect for fans of classic UFO close encounters, Italian ufology, physical trace cases, and the unexplained.

Philip Norman returns to talk about Mr. Moonlight, his first book devoted entirely to Brian Epstein, and what emerges from decades of Beatles research focused through a single lens is a portrait more complex than the one most people think they know. Norman reveals the extraordinary story of how the Kray twins plotted to exploit Brian’s gambling addiction and seize control of The Beatles, the antisemitism and homophobia Brian faced even at the peak of his success, and new evidence around the circumstances of his death that raises serious questions about the official verdict. Philip also covers areas that too often gets overlooked: Brian’s family history, his time in the army and at drama school, his instinct for a hit record, and the way he shielded The Beatles from a fame that might otherwise have consumed them. The question Norman keeps returning to is the one that still stings: why, given everything he did, does Brian Epstein undervalued?

Wood Devils. That's what people in New Hampshire call their version of Bigfoot. Known to be lankier and more gaunt in appearance than their other Bigfoot brethren, they tend to be very shy, hiding behind trees or standing perfectly still so as not to be spotted by people. But the residents of New Hampshire spot them often, and this week I'll be looking at some truly spooky Wood Devil sightings, including one Granite State Sasquatch that likes looking into the window of a Gilford family's home. So sit back and enjoy these stories of Bigfoot Sightings in New Hampshire...Chapters:0:00 - Wood Devils: Bigfoot in the Granite State1:43 - Sasquatch Spying on Family Through Window in Belknap County12:21 - Legends of the Wood Devils from the 1930s in Coos County14:45 - Boy riding his bike encounters Bigfoot in Rockingham County near Nottingham20:06 - Girl walking her dog is paralleled near Sunrise Lake in Strafford County26:30 - Dawn Bigfoot Sighting at Stevens Brook near Claremont in Sullivan County33:19 - Boy encounters white Wood Devil while riding his bike in Grafton County near Caanan 36:46 - Stargazers encounter Bigfoot on the Kancamagus Highway40:13 - Swaying, paralleling, peeking - Wood Devils are just like other Bigfoot#bigfoot #newhampshire #cryptozoologyLinks!Follow us on Social media!Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/oddanduntold/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/oddanduntoldWebsite: https://www.oddanduntold.comMerch Store: https://oddanduntold-shop.fourthwall.com/Email me! : jason@oddanduntold.comBigfoot Sighting in New Hampshire with Jeb Scruggs of Squatch Hunters International: https://youtu.be/ntCzovE988o?si=LTBT82ATxGsT6ADYBigfoot Sightings in Massachusetts | Worcester County: https://youtu.be/N5vueu8vNdM?si=PbU4THHDH9X6FgbDBigfoot Sightings in Rhode Island | Providence & Washington County: https://youtu.be/BylOFZ_esqI?si=u7kTIGseoEkpLrIbBFRO Sightings from New Hampshire: https://www.bfro.net/GDB/state_listing.asp?state=nhCheck out Riversend, the band behind "Moonlight," our awesome theme music!Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/track/1yIwfeu2cH1kDZaMYxKOUe?si=NIUijnmsQe6LNWOsfZ2jPwRiversend Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/RiversendbandRiversend Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/riversendband/

Pinchas 5786 - moonLight of Emuna - R' Dov Elias by Rabbi Avi Zakutinsky

What if Norwegian fighter jets spotted a massive silvery disc crashed in the remote Arctic ice of Spitsbergen? What if it contained revolutionary anti-gravity technology, exotic alloys unknown to Earth science, and markings that sparked Cold War panic?This is the bizarre, shadowy, and endlessly debated tale of the 1952 Spitsbergen UFO incident — one of the earliest and most influential “crashed saucer” stories of the UFO era.In this episode of My Dark Path, host MF Thomas explores the intriguing story behind the Spitsbergen reports — from the sensational German newspaper claims of a spinning disc recovered by Norwegian forces, to descriptions of advanced propulsion systems, possible Soviet or extraterrestrial origins, the rapid spread through global media, and the growing questions about whether any of it was real… or an elaborate hoax born in the paranoia of the early Cold War.**Timestamps:** 0:00 – The 1952 Spitsbergen UFO Crash Report 4:05 – Welcome to My Dark Path 7:10 – The Early 1950s UFO Craze and Cold War Tensions 12:55 – Norwegian Jets Discover the Crashed Disc 18:40 – Exotic Technology Claims: Anti-Gravity, Unknown Alloys, and Mysterious Markings 24:15 – Military Recovery, Investigations, and International Intrigue 29:50 – How the Story Spread and Evolved 35:10 – Unraveling the Hoax: Origins in the German Press 40:05 – Cold War Disinformation, Propaganda, and the Power of Belief 43:35 – Final Thoughts: What the Spitsbergen Hoax Reveals About UFO History If you love weird history, UFO deep-dives, Cold War mysteries, and stories that sound too crazy to be true, this episode is for you.

Philip Norman's latest biography, Mr. Moonlight (DaCapo Press, 2026) is the definitive, comprehensive biography of Brian Epstein--the man who built the Beatles. There will never be another pop manager like Brian Epstein, the young record-retailer from Liverpool behind the 20th century's greatest romance. Having achieved his much-derided aim of making the Beatles "bigger than Elvis," Brian went on to make them bigger than any earthly instrument could measure. Only a handful of years older, he nonetheless referred them as "the Boys," protecting and pampering them like the children he could never hope to have. Due to his homosexuality--and possibly his Jewishness--Brian received no public honor (or even thanks) for this incalculable contribution to Britain's exports, let alone the national morale. He may not have been the best dealmaker for the Beatles, but in his hands, their guiding principles were always good taste, niceness to their fans, and value for money. Yet his only tangible memorials are a blue plaque marking his former office in London's theatreland and a modest bronze statue near the site of his family's electrical goods store in Liverpool. Mr. Moonlight draws on a cache of never-before-heard audio interviews to tell the story of this hugely complex, self-contradictory, and ultimately tragic character. From his Pre-Beatles years--the eight different expensive private schools at which he failed to shine, his problematic career as an army National Serviceman, his vague ambitions to be a couturier--through his management of the Beatles, where he turned a quartet of unruly young musicians in cracked black leather into a worldwide religion, up to his supposedly "incautious" overdoses in 1967 at aged 32, and the calamity that followed. As John Lennon said upon hearing the news, "Then we're fucked!"--and they were. Learn more about your ad choices.

Originally released as Episode 524 of Bigfoot Society on 9/11/24.In 1979, a 12-year-old boy found himself stranded on a lonely road outside Tomahawk, Wisconsin after a stolen junkyard car broke down in the middle of the night.What happened next stayed buried for more than 40 years.As he walked toward town under a bright moon, something massive moved through the swamp beside him. Trees shook. The sounds got closer. Then an enormous figure stepped from the darkness and began pacing him from across the road.For miles.Pete shares one of the most intense encounters ever featured on Bigfoot Society, describing a face-to-face experience with a creature he estimates stood 8 to 9 feet tall. He recalls every detail—the eyes, the hands, the teeth, the body proportions, and the fear that followed him for decades.The story expands into a deeper mystery involving the same remote area of northern Wisconsin. Strange sightings, Dogman reports, unexplained activity around homes, and multiple missing-person cases have all been reported within a small geographic region surrounding Highway O and Bellevue Road.You'll also hear from Rick in Warren County, Ohio, who describes a night filled with precise wood knocks, owl-like vocalizations, and a strange aerial object that appeared above his property. His investigation led him to discover a history of Bigfoot reports in the same area.

Korach 5786 - moonLight of Emuna - R' Dov Elias by Rabbi Avi Zakutinsky

The Beatles' manager, Brian Epstein, is widely regarded as the man who helped the band break through. He's inspired plays, films, and even an artistic installation by the Turner Prize-winning artist Jeremy Deller. He's now the subject of a new biography, Mr Moonlight, by Philip Norman.A Unesco-listed cathedral in Kyiv went up in flames on Sunday night after an intense Russian bombing attack. The Ukrainian government sees the attack on the historic Pechersk Lavra monastery complex as part of a sustained campaign to destroy the nation's cultural landmarks and identity. And in Kharkiv, workers at the state art museum have just moved its collection after a bombing raid caused fires. The Baltic republic of Estonia, which has an Eastern border with Russia, say it is planning for such attacks too. Samira Ahmed talks to its culture minister, Merilin Piipuu.Tributes have been pouring in for the Oscar-winning special effects pioneer Brian Johnson, who's died at the age of 87. He worked on the British television shows Thunderbirds and Space:1999, the latter taking him to Hollywood, and The Empire Strikes Back. One of those who has been influenced by his craft is the visual effects designer and filmmaker Paul Franklin, who explains why Brian Johnson changed the sci-fi landscape.What is it like to grow up in a town which lost its industry decades before you were even born?

Lead actor Leisa Gwenllian joins Samira in the Front Row studio to discuss her role. When the Barbie film was released in 2023, it made over a billion dollars in just 17 days – making director Greta Gerwig the first ever woman to reach that milestone as a solo director.

It was first shown at London's Design Museum, where it proved one of the venue's most popular ever shows. Senior curator Danielle Thom and writer and fan Sara Sheridan discuss Barbie as art.

Philip Norman has written books about the Beatles – and John, Paul and George - and now turns the spotlight on the man who launched them and the extreme personal and professional obstacles in the dramatic path of his short life, the man who built a shield around them but couldn't protect himself. We talk to him here about ‘Mr Moonlight: Brian Epstein and the Making of the Beatles' with particular attention to … … how he changed Britain's image and was mortified to get no recognition for it … the Beatle whose demands he was always fastest to execute … the level of homophobia and anti-Semitism he had to absorb … his reckless pursuits in the days when homosexuality could mean life imprisonment … contract killers, blackmail, rigged roulette wheels and why the Krays said “it wasn't us” when they heard he'd died … the way he fashioned his own myth and airbrushed others who'd helped the Beatles succeed … why McCartney's 21st birthday party could have ended the band … his genius (and fraudulence) as a salesman … the double catastrophe of Brian's US merchandising deal … John, Aunt Mimi and “a story about the British class system” … and the chaperone on George and Pattie's first date.

Broadway: Lux Radio Theater “Mrs. Moonlight” 6/26/39 CBS.

In 1898, workers building a railroad bridge in East Africa began disappearing during the night. Rumors spread that supernatural forces were stalking the camp, but the truth was terrifying enough: two lions had begun hunting humans. This week, Michael explores the true story of the Tsavo Man-Eaters, the months-long campaign of fear that threatened one of the British Empire's largest engineering projects, and the scientific mystery that still leaves researchers debating exactly why these lions turned to human prey. Then we play the Yap Yap Quiz with Comedian Jay Black!
