New Realities with Alan Steinfeld Disclosure, Religion, and the Simulated Multiverse Alan Steinfeld hosts New Realities with Dr. J.J. Hurtak, Dr. Desiree Hurtak, and Rizwan Virk for a two-part conversation on extraterrestrial disclosure, religion, divine intelligence, interdimensional realities, consciousness, simulation theory, the simulated multiverse, AI, free will, soul memory, and humanity's awakening into a larger cosmic identity. Guest Spotlight: Dr. J.J. Hurtak, Dr. Desiree Hurtak, and Rizwan Virk This episode of New Realities, broadcast on August 8, 2026, features host Alan Steinfeld with guests Dr. J.J. Hurtak, Dr. Desiree Hurtak, and Rizwan Virk. Dr. J.J. Hurtak is a theologian, linguist, researcher, and co-author connected with The Keys of Enoch; Dr. Desiree Hurtak, a spiritual researcher and co-presenter; and Rizwan Virk is the author of The Simulation Hypothesis and The Simulated Multiverse. Disclosure, Religion, and the Question of Other Beings Alan opens the program by asking how religious communities should respond to extraterrestrial disclosure and the possibility of other intelligences. He notes that some religious leaders may interpret extraterrestrial beings through familiar categories such as demons, while he argues that the phenomenon may require a wider lens. Dr. J.J. Hurtak responds from his background in theology, linguistics, ancient documents, and comparative religion, while Dr. Desiree Hurtak emphasizes that extraterrestrials may include positive, negative, and neutral beings, much like humanity itself. The opening establishes the episode's central question: how can religion expand without collapsing into fear? Angels, Demons, ETs, and the Expanded Religious Framework The Hurtaks suggest that extraterrestrials should not automatically be confused with God, angels, or demons, but understood as part of a larger field of intelligences. Dr. Desiree says many ETs may exist on levels closer to humanity, while divine, angelic, or demonic realities may be beyond that range. Alan repeatedly argues that people are trying to put an unknown phenomenon into old boxes, while the Hurtaks present a broader cosmology of multiple heavens, divine realities, lower levels, higher light beings, ultra-terrestrials, and various forms of consciousness. Together, they frame disclosure not as the destruction of faith, but as an invitation to expand humanity's idea of creation. Jesus, Light Bodies, Merkabah, and the House of Many Mansions The discussion then turns to whether figures such as Jesus should be understood in extraterrestrial terms. Dr. Desiree rejects the idea of Jesus “riding a flying saucer,” but describes Christ as coming from a higher light reality, entering this world, and returning to a light body. The Hurtaks connect this to their work with the Shroud of Turin, the concept of light-body transformation, Merkabah vehicles, Ezekiel's vision, and the New Testament phrase “house of many mansions.” Their view is that some beings may use craft, while others may operate through vehicles of light, dimensional realities, or higher levels of divine intelligence. Consciousness, Genetics, Cosmic Family, and the Purpose of Contact Alan and the Hurtaks then explore consciousness as the core of the ET question. Dr. J.J. says consciousness is the capacity to deal with all levels of universal intelligence, while Dr. Desiree suggests some beings may need something from humanity, including soul capacity or genetic capacity. The conversation touches on cattle mutilation, cloning, Area 51 references, Dan Burisch, divine-source God code, DNA, panspermia, the Pleiades, Sirius, and humanity's possible cosmic family. Alan frames the larger purpose of contact as awakening humanity to one human family and preparing us to meet other intelligences peacefully rather than through fear or worship. Humanity's Graduation and the Call to Wake Up As the first part concludes, the Hurtaks and Alan emphasize that extraterrestrial disclosure may push humanity into a new anthropology, cosmology, and spiritual maturity. They discuss interdimensionality, remote viewing, dreams, the Book of Enoch, multiple heavens, and humanity's capacity to activate a higher identity. The speakers suggest that extraterrestrials may appear now because of nuclear danger, environmental crisis, or a long-hidden disclosure process, but they stress that the deepest response must be spiritual: humility, discernment, heart awareness, cosmic citizenship, and the recognition that divinity lives within. Alan closes the first section by describing humanity as standing at a threshold of renaissance, expanded belief, and new realities. Rizwan Virk and the Simulation Hypothesis The second part brings in Rizwan Virk for a cross-cultural conversation about simulation theory, ancient spiritual traditions, and the simulated multiverse. Rizwan explains that his thinking began with a virtual-reality ping-pong experience that briefly convinced his body the game was real, leading him to ask how long it would take to build a digital world so convincing that people would forget there was a part of themselves outside it. He compares physical reality to a massively multiplayer video game in which the player exists outside the game and the character inside the game is an avatar. This allows him to connect modern simulation theory with ancient ideas such as Maya, Plato's cave, Buddha's dream, Shakespeare's stage, and Yogananda's film-projector metaphor. Multiverse, AI, Free Will, Forgetfulness, and the Game of Life Rizwan explains five assertions of simulation theory: that the world consists of information, that information is computed over time, that it is rendered for us, that reality may function like a kind of hoax, and that we agreed to participate in it. The discussion expands into the simulated multiverse, quantum branching, Philip K. Dick, the Mandela Effect, retrocausality, delayed-choice experiments, alternate selves, AI, prompt theory, Google Genie, and the possibility that humanity is birthing a new form of life through artificial intelligence. The group also discusses forgetfulness across spiritual traditions, ensoulment, the soul entering the avatar, remembering after death, and the possibility of remembering while still alive. Soul, Service, and the Gift of Life The closing section brings the simulation conversation back to spiritual purpose. The speakers discuss life review, the Book of Life, the scroll of deeds, Archangel Michael, free will, reincarnation or biogenesis, avatars, higher selves, overself awakening, and the idea that life's challenges may function like quests. Rizwan says the point of the “game” is how we treat other people, while Dr. J.J. cautions that life is not merely a game but a gift filled with creativity, joy, compassion, and higher understanding. Alan concludes that realizing we are in a beautiful simulation can help people enjoy life more, serve others and themselves, learn from experience, and recognize both the game and the gift of being alive.

New Realities with Alan Steinfeld Contact, Channeling, and the Human Story of Disclosure Alan Steinfeld speaks with Jess Herman about childhood contact memories, hybrid-program experiences, channeling the Vagrions, multidimensional identity, and how disclosure may expand humanity's understanding of consciousness. Guest Spotlight: Jess Herman Jess Herman is a channel, contactee, and creator connected with the channeled collective she identifies as the Vagrions. In this conversation, she shares deeply personal accounts of childhood contact memories, psychic abilities, hybrid-program experiences, channeling, pranic healing, and her mission to help people move toward unity consciousness, radical self-acceptance, and trust in their own joy. Consciousness, Contact, and the Beginning of Jess's Story In this episode of New Realities, host Alan Steinfeld introduces the program as an exploration of consciousness, UFO phenomena, contactees, and the possibility that contact itself may be part of human evolution. He welcomes Jess Herman, describing her as one of his favorite people and noting that she channels the Vagrions while also appearing to have contactee experiences. Jess begins by explaining that she does not remember a childhood before contact. Her parents framed her early experiences as vivid dreams, but she now sees them as something more structured, recurring, and unusual. Childhood Experiences, Psychic Training, and the Grays Jess describes childhood memories in Montreal where time seemed to slow, the street outside her window became strangely still, and she would later find herself in sterile, hospital-like environments with other children. She compares some of these memories to later depictions in shows such as Stranger Things, especially scenes involving children practicing psychic abilities. Jess says the experiences felt organized, like a program with structure and purpose, and recalls being around other children as well as beings she identifies as grays. She explains that memories of medical-style procedures were frightening, partly because of the coldness and lack of emotional interaction she felt from the beings involved. Hybrid Children, Pregnancy Loss, and Psychic Disclosure A major part of the conversation centers on Jess's belief that she was involved in a hybrid program. She describes experiences beginning around age sixteen and later connects them to pregnancies, miscarriages, and what she believes were hybrid children or beings connected to her. Jess recounts one pregnancy that medically appeared to be developing before the fetus was no longer found, and another pregnancy involving twins in which one baby later disappeared. She says she was psychically informed that her body had been used as part of a program, that she had “signed up” for this work, and that the beings involved later allowed her to step away from the hybrid-program role. Channeling the Vagrions and the Mission of Self-Acceptance Jess explains that channeling came naturally to her, as though it was something she already knew how to do. She connects this ease with earlier training, psychic ability, and healing experiences, including her discovery of pranic healing. Her mission with the Vagrions is described as sharing messages of unity consciousness and radical self-acceptance. Jess says the Vagrions emphasize following joy, trusting the self, appreciating each person's unique individuation, and dissolving insecurity around worthiness and love. In her view, if enough people stepped into their power and made more fulfilling choices, many of the world's problems could shift within a generation. Multidimensional Identity, ET Contact, and the Nature of Reality Alan and Jess explore contact through a broader metaphysical lens, discussing starseeds, Arcturian and Pleiadian connections, mantis beings, nonverbal autistic children, telepathy, parallel dimensions, and the idea that people may exist simultaneously in more than one form or realm. Jess describes herself as having interactions that feel like going to a ship, waiting in a room, and meeting with beings in a corporate or boardroom-like setting. She also shares missing-time experiences, including one while driving near Lake Placid and another in Malta near ancient cart tracks. These stories become part of a larger discussion about how the self may exist both inside time and outside it, with the physical body understood as one expression of a much larger essence. Disclosure, Creation, and Learning to Stay Calm Around Contact The conversation eventually turns toward the historical moment of disclosure and the possibility that humanity is meeting the unknown in a new way. Jess and Alan discuss how alien contact, consciousness, time, physicality, creativity, and manifestation may all be part of the same unfolding story. Jess emphasizes that creation does not have to be a struggle, and that people are already creating reality through their perspective and assumptions. She also advises listeners who want more contact experiences to become emotionally steady around the subject, because fear or overexcitement may signal that a person is not yet ready for deeper interaction. Jess's Work, Website, and Closing Connection Near the close, Jess points listeners to JPHerman.com, her YouTube material, and her podcast Some Kind of Mystic, where she interviews channels, healers, and spiritually focused guests. Alan and Jess reflect on their immediate sense of recognition and connection, framing it as part of the larger contactee and consciousness field they have been discussing. Alan thanks Jess for her insights, her dedication, and her contribution to human evolution, while the program closes with a poetic musical outro reflecting the episode's themes of mystery, contact, trauma, consciousness, and the future of human understanding.

What if the price you charge isn't just a number — it's a threshold? In this episode, Jess explores a concept that reshaped how she thinks about money in business: numbers as portals into different realities. Every price point you set is a ticket to a specific version of your life, your business, and your future.Jess unpacks why most people build their offer first and price it last — usually landing on whatever "everyone else" charges — and why that's backwards. Instead, she walks through why the number has to come first: decide the reality you want to live in, let that number reveal itself, and only then build the offer that lives inside it.Along the way: a story about a billionaire-feeling holiday in Antigua, a tangent on a Yoga Alliance controversy that reveals how entire industries police their own pricing ceilings, and why charging a number that scares you is often exactly the number that's doing its job — bringing your suppressed beliefs about worth and visibility to the surface so you can finally move through them.This one applies whether or not you're building a membership. If you've ever felt yourself capping your prices to stay comfortable, or stay "in belonging" with your industry's going rate — this episode is for you.In this episode:Why pricing is a spiritual initiation, not just a business decisionThe difference between choosing an offer first vs. choosing a number firstHow suppressed beliefs about worthiness only surface once you actually say the number out loudThe "energetic barrier" concept — why you can see other realities but can't access them without crossing the thresholdA real example: the Yoga Alliance pricing controversy and what it reveals about industry-wide scarcity agreementsHow The Vessel helps you identify which portal — which number — is actually yoursPlay with your own numbers and step into The Vessel here:

Across more than four decades, HIV has driven some of the most remarkable scientific progress — and most powerful activism — that global health has ever seen. Today, ending AIDS is within reach. Yet funding is being cut and political priorities are shifting. As the response shifts from emergency footing toward long-term, chronic care, what risks are being left behind? In this episode, host Garry Aslanyan explores this question and more with two guests who bring deeply complementary perspectives. Magda Robalo is a public health physician and President and co-founder of the Institute for Global Health and Development, who has served as Guinea-Bissau's Minister of Health and as WHO Director of Communicable Diseases. And joining her is Marina Vergueiro, a Brazilian activist, filmmaker, poet and co-founder of LUSO+, the Lusophone Network of People Living with HIV, who has lived with HIV since 2012 and is one of Brazil's most outspoken voices for dignity and mental health in the HIV response.Related episode documents, transcripts and other information can be found on our website.Subscribe to the Global Health Matters podcast newsletter.  Follow us for updates:@TDRnews on XTDR on LinkedIn@ghm_podcast on Instagram@ghm-podcast.bsky.social on Bluesky Disclaimer: The views, information, or opinions expressed during the Global Health Matters podcast series are solely those of the individuals involved and do not necessarily represent those of TDR or the World Health Organization.  All content © 2026 Global Health Matters.  

New Realities with Alan Steinfeld Disclosure, Consciousness, and the Hidden Architecture of the UFO Secret Guest, Ross Coulthart, UAP Journalist Ross Coulthart and the Story Journalism Avoided In this episode of New Realities, host Alan Steinfeld welcomes investigative journalist Ross Coulthart for a wide-ranging conversation about UFOs, UAP disclosure, alleged classified programs, consciousness, and the cultural resistance surrounding the subject. Coulthart explains that he originally approached UFO reporting with skepticism, expecting to disprove the phenomenon as misidentified aerospace technology, but says conversations with senior officials led him to reverse his position and conclude that the public has been misled. David Grusch, Media Failure, and the Disclosure Inflection Point Alan frames Coulthart's interview with David Grusch as a major turning point in UFO history, alongside Roswell and the 2017 New York Times reporting. Coulthart resists being personally elevated but strongly criticizes mainstream journalism for what he sees as neglect, ridicule, and failure to investigate. He argues that major outlets and the White House press corps have treated the subject with nervous laughter rather than seriousness, despite Grusch's status and testimony. The discussion also includes criticism of media “hit pieces” and the possibility that intelligence-linked narratives are shaping public perception. Controlled Disclosure, the Legacy Program, and the National Security State A major part of the interview centers on what Coulthart calls the legacy program, which he describes as the hidden structure behind alleged recovered craft and reverse-engineering efforts. He suggests that the 2014–2015 period may have involved an attempt at controlled disclosure, including briefings connected to Tom DeLonge and To the Stars Academy. Coulthart argues that the national security state may have tried to manage disclosure while limiting how much the public learned about recovered technology, private aerospace involvement, and alleged reverse-engineering successes. Secrecy, Executive Power, and Alleged Crimes Coulthart and Alan discuss whether secrecy around the phenomenon is justified by national security or whether it has become self-protecting and corrosive. Coulthart raises concerns about alleged illegal activity, including claims of deaths, private aerospace power, JSOC involvement, underground facilities, and programs hidden from Congress or presidents. He favors a truth-and-reconciliation-style process for many involved in secrecy, while distinguishing that alleged murders or capital crimes should still be investigated. The conversation repeatedly returns to constitutional accountability, presidential authority, and whether Congress has the power or will to force disclosure. Agreements, Abductions, and the Mystery of the Phenomenon Itself The discussion moves beyond government secrecy into the larger question of what the phenomenon may be doing and why it is here. Coulthart points to David Grusch's reference to “agreements” as especially significant and speculates, while acknowledging uncertainty, about possible arrangements between governments and non-human intelligences. Alan brings up claims around Eisenhower, Holloman Air Force Base, alien abductions, and John Mack's research, while Coulthart says he has become more open to abduction testimony after hearing many firsthand accounts. Both speakers treat the phenomenon as broader than hardware alone. Consciousness, Love, Blue Beings, and a New Reality Model One of the episode's most important turns is toward consciousness. Coulthart says people connected to alleged legacy programs often become less focused on alien hardware and more focused on consciousness. The conversation touches on quantum physics, nonlocal awareness, psychic phenomena, remote viewing, autistic nonverbal communication research, and the possibility that matter may arise from consciousness rather than consciousness emerging from matter. Coulthart also discusses repeated accounts of “blue beings” and “downloads,” saying he received numerous independent reports from people describing similar experiences. Jake Barber, Catastrophic Disclosure, and What Comes Next The interview closes by returning to whistleblowers, especially Jake Barber, whom Coulthart describes as a firsthand witness connected to alleged retrieval operations. Coulthart says Barber and others have risked much by coming forward and criticizes both mainstream media and parts of the UFO community for attacking witnesses rather than following the implications of their claims. He suggests catastrophic disclosure may come from insiders trying to get ahead of the story, while Alan continues pressing for hope, public action, and a consciousness shift. The episode ends with the sense that disclosure may not only reveal hidden technology, but also force a transformation in how humanity understands reality itself.

Welcome to NewRealities. A Retreat Built Around Quantum Consciousness In this episode of New Realities, host Alan Steinfeld is joined by Suzanne Ross and guest Jannecke Øinæs, host and producer of Wisdom from North. The conversation centers on the upcoming San Diego Transcendence Retreat, described as a gathering focused on quantum consciousness, quantum love, multidimensional awareness, and the many pathways people use to access expanded states. Suzanne explains that the retreat will bring together near-death experiencers, spiritual teachers, ET contactees, hypnotic regressionists, sound-frequency performers, and other presenters to help participants tap into the quantum field and experience deeper connection. Jannecke's Journey From Child Star to Spiritual Seeker Jannecke shares that her personal path began in Norway, where she was a child performer and played Annie at age eleven. For years, she felt certain that singing and acting were her purpose, but when she lost her voice in her twenties, her identity collapsed. She describes this period as a dark night of the soul and a deep depression, marked by questions about who she was, why she was here, and whether she had value. That crisis became the doorway into spiritual inquiry, meditation, inner work, and a mystical experience that gave her direct proof, in her own words, that she existed beyond the body and that her true nature was love. Quantum Love and the Truth Beyond Human Definition Alan asks Jannecke what she means by “quantum love,” and she explains that ordinary human language cannot fully describe the love she experienced outside her body. To her, quantum love is a love beyond ordinary emotional attachment, condition, or limitation. Suzanne relates this to her own mantra-initiation experience, when she felt love flowing from the sky, sun, flowers, grass, wind, and all of life. Together, they frame quantum love as a field of all-encompassing connection, a direct realization that love is not merely something humans feel, but something fundamental to what they are. Authenticity, Shadow, and the Human Side of Awakening A central theme of the conversation is authenticity. Jannecke says spiritual awakening is not about pretending to be pure, perfect, or permanently enlightened. She talks openly about still being human, still feeling triggered, still encountering envy, frustration, self-judgment, and vulnerability. For her, authenticity means honoring both the light and the shadow, admitting when something was not expressed well, apologizing when needed, and refusing to judge herself for being human. Alan and Suzanne connect this to conscious living, emotional honesty, and the practice of seeing life as a mirror. Disclosure, Starseeds, and the Expanding Human Story The discussion then moves into disclosure, ET contact, starseed identity, and the changing collective worldview. Jannecke says she has not had a direct ET encounter, but has always felt connected to the stars and, as a child, drew ships and alien beings. She relates this to Dolores Cannon's work on starseeds and says many people feel they are not fully “from” this planet. Alan describes disclosure not only as information or data, but as an experience that changes the human worldview from within. The group discusses dreams, meditation, channeling, inner contact, multidimensionality, star lineages, and the possibility that humanity is expanding into a new relationship with the universe. Discernment, Confusion, and the Search for Truth Alan, Suzanne, and Jannecke also discuss how to handle the many extraordinary claims that appear in spiritual, channeling, and UFO communities. Jannecke says she has become more comfortable with not knowing everything and with allowing possibilities to remain open without needing to accept them all. She mentions the idea of a “law of confusion,” while Alan reframes this as integration, uncertainty, and expansion into possibility. Suzanne emphasizes open-mindedness, open-heartedness, discernment, and nonjudgment, suggesting that seekers can respect other people's experiences while still deciding what resonates for themselves. Community, Acceleration, and Coming Together in San Diego Near the close, the conversation returns to the retreat itself and the importance of gathering in person. Suzanne describes the San Diego event as taking place at the Catamaran Resort, with workshops, beach meditations, sound journeys, and a sunset dinner cruise designed to build community. Jannecke says many people feel alone in their spiritual interests and need places where they can speak openly, feel at home, and be part of a community of seekers. The episode ends with appreciation for Jannecke's work through Wisdom from North, the retreat's speakers, and the shared sense that humanity is moving through an accelerated evolutionary moment.

New Realities with Alan Steinfeld Disclosure Day, Higher Frequencies, and the Threshold of a New Human Reality Guests, Dr. J.J. Hurtak and Dr. Desiree Hurtak, Linda Moulton Howe Spielberg's Disclosure Day Opens a Bigger Conversation In this episode of New Realities, host Alan Steinfeld gathers a panel to review Steven Spielberg's newly released film Disclosure Day. Alan is joined by longtime UFO investigator Linda Moulton Howe, along with Dr. J.J. Hurtak and Dr. Desiree Hurtak, who bring perspectives from UFO research, consciousness studies, spirituality, ancient texts, and the wider disclosure movement. Alan frames the film as perhaps one of the most anticipated cinematic events in modern UFO culture, because it deals not simply with science fiction, but with the possibility that humanity is being prepared for a deeper truth about non-human intelligence. Frequencies, Clicking Sounds, and Consciousness Communication Linda Moulton Howe begins by emphasizing the importance of frequency in the film. She connects Spielberg's use of clicking sounds and nonverbal communication to government documents, abduction cases, and reports she has heard from experiencers over decades of research. Dr. J.J. Hurtak also highlights the film's treatment of language, sound, and consciousness, contrasting it with Close Encounters of the Third Kind, where communication was centered more on tones and music. In Disclosure Day, the panel says Spielberg brings in the human element more fully, suggesting that extraterrestrial contact may involve mind-to-mind communication, frequency, empathy, and higher consciousness rather than ordinary speech alone. From Science Fiction to a Disclosure Bridge Alan and the panel repeatedly stress that they do not see Disclosure Day as merely another science fiction movie. They argue that Spielberg has gathered decades of UFO, UAP, consciousness, government secrecy, telepathy, cover-up, and experiencer material into a film that functions as a bridge between old disbelief and a new cultural acceptance. Alan says Spielberg seems to have been a serious student of the phenomenon, including many familiar themes from UFO research: government secrecy, private industry involvement, recovered craft, mind control, empathy, and the question of whether the public has a right to know. Government, Corporations, and the Machinery of Secrecy A major part of the discussion focuses on the film's depiction of government secrecy and private industry. Alan references the fictional corporation Wardex, which is tied to retrieval and extraction programs, and connects that to real-world claims associated with figures such as Lieutenant Colonel Philip J. Corso. Linda and the Hurtaks discuss how governments may have transferred recovered technologies or sensitive programs into corporate hands to create plausible deniability. Linda traces this secrecy back to World War II and Eisenhower-era briefings, while Alan says the film dramatizes the tension between those who hide the truth and those who believe humanity has a right to know. Fear, Love, and the Human Right to the Truth The panel describes the film as a contest between fear-based secrecy and the higher message of empathy, love, and transcendence. Alan says humanity is caught between fear and higher consciousness, and that the film presents empathy as a key to humanity's future. Linda is especially moved by the final minutes, saying she felt empathy not only for extraterrestrials but also for humanity, because people have not been told the truth as a species. The panel agrees that disclosure should not merely be informational; it should be transformational, helping humans understand themselves as part of a larger cosmic family. Religion, Creation, and the Many Mansions of the Universe The film's spiritual themes are also central to the panel's review. Alan, Linda, and the Hurtaks discuss the Catholic sister character in the film, who recognizes that the universe is too vast to exist only for humanity. They connect this idea to the Book of Genesis, Christ consciousness, the New Testament phrase about “many mansions,” ancient Coptic and Greek texts, and the idea that creation includes many levels of life and intelligence. Rather than seeing extraterrestrial intelligence as opposed to spirituality, the panel presents it as part of a larger divine creation story in which humanity must expand its understanding of soul, consciousness, and cosmic purpose. What Spielberg Shows — and What He Leaves for Later The group praises Spielberg's restraint but also discusses what the film does not fully show. Linda says she wished Spielberg had introduced more kinds of non-human intelligences, including tall whites, Nordics, reptilians, plasma beings, and other forms she has encountered through witness testimony. Alan suggests Spielberg may be taking the public slowly by first introducing one or two categories of extraterrestrial presence before expanding into a wider range of beings. The panel agrees that the film is likely only the beginning of a broader cultural process and that future films, government releases, or public disclosures may reveal a more complicated landscape. Disclosure, Timing, and a Planet Under Pressure The panel repeatedly asks why this film and this moment are happening now. Linda suggests the timing may relate to future geophysical changes, solar activity, rising oceans, environmental instability, and the possibility that extraterrestrial assistance may become necessary for humanity's survival. Alan connects the timing to recent government disclosures and the public release of UFO/UAP information, while Dr. J.J. Hurtak frames the moment as a sociological, psychological, economic, planetary, and spiritual convergence. The group agrees that humanity is being prepared for contact because the old reality is no longer sufficient. The Soul, Empathy, and the Next Stage of Humanity A major theme in the latter part of the program is the soul. Linda shares memories from childhood of feeling a protective pressure in her chest while looking at an image of Christ with lambs, a feeling she still associates with soul, protection, and love. Dr. J.J. Hurtak describes the soul as the inner architecture of life, a field of consciousness that continues beyond the body. Dr. Desiree Hurtak adds that different beings may have different levels of soul evolution, and that humanity is learning to access abilities such as remote viewing, telepathy, and higher-dimensional awareness. Alan says these gifts of the spirit may allow humans to meet non-human intelligences on a more equal footing. “Listen”: The Word at the Doorway The panel gives special attention to the film's final message: listen. They interpret the word as a call to listen to extraterrestrials, higher intelligence, divine purpose, inner senses, compassion, and one another. For Dr. J.J. Hurtak, this connects to sacred language and the ancient call to hear the divine frequency. Alan sees Spielberg's film as a “signifying agent,” a cultural bridge that helps people move from an old reality into new realities. The episode closes with a shared prayer from Linda, “May the thought that dwells in the light protect us forever,” followed by Alan's disclosure-themed song, “Did You See It?”, which he presents as an anthem for this new moment.

New Realities with Alan Steinfeld Disclosure Day, Higher Frequencies, and the Threshold of a New Human Reality Guests, Dr. J.J. Hurtak and Dr. Desiree Hurtak, Linda Moulton Howe Spielberg's Disclosure Day Opens a Bigger Conversation In this episode of New Realities, host Alan Steinfeld gathers a panel to review Steven Spielberg's newly released film Disclosure Day. Alan is joined by longtime UFO investigator Linda Moulton Howe, along with Dr. J.J. Hurtak and Dr. Desiree Hurtak, who bring perspectives from UFO research, consciousness studies, spirituality, ancient texts, and the wider disclosure movement. Alan frames the film as perhaps one of the most anticipated cinematic events in modern UFO culture, because it deals not simply with science fiction, but with the possibility that humanity is being prepared for a deeper truth about non-human intelligence. Frequencies, Clicking Sounds, and Consciousness Communication Linda Moulton Howe begins by emphasizing the importance of frequency in the film. She connects Spielberg's use of clicking sounds and nonverbal communication to government documents, abduction cases, and reports she has heard from experiencers over decades of research. Dr. J.J. Hurtak also highlights the film's treatment of language, sound, and consciousness, contrasting it with Close Encounters of the Third Kind, where communication was centered more on tones and music. In Disclosure Day, the panel says Spielberg brings in the human element more fully, suggesting that extraterrestrial contact may involve mind-to-mind communication, frequency, empathy, and higher consciousness rather than ordinary speech alone. From Science Fiction to a Disclosure Bridge Alan and the panel repeatedly stress that they do not see Disclosure Day as merely another science fiction movie. They argue that Spielberg has gathered decades of UFO, UAP, consciousness, government secrecy, telepathy, cover-up, and experiencer material into a film that functions as a bridge between old disbelief and a new cultural acceptance. Alan says Spielberg seems to have been a serious student of the phenomenon, including many familiar themes from UFO research: government secrecy, private industry involvement, recovered craft, mind control, empathy, and the question of whether the public has a right to know. Government, Corporations, and the Machinery of Secrecy A major part of the discussion focuses on the film's depiction of government secrecy and private industry. Alan references the fictional corporation Wardex, which is tied to retrieval and extraction programs, and connects that to real-world claims associated with figures such as Lieutenant Colonel Philip J. Corso. Linda and the Hurtaks discuss how governments may have transferred recovered technologies or sensitive programs into corporate hands to create plausible deniability. Linda traces this secrecy back to World War II and Eisenhower-era briefings, while Alan says the film dramatizes the tension between those who hide the truth and those who believe humanity has a right to know. Fear, Love, and the Human Right to the Truth The panel describes the film as a contest between fear-based secrecy and the higher message of empathy, love, and transcendence. Alan says humanity is caught between fear and higher consciousness, and that the film presents empathy as a key to humanity's future. Linda is especially moved by the final minutes, saying she felt empathy not only for extraterrestrials but also for humanity, because people have not been told the truth as a species. The panel agrees that disclosure should not merely be informational; it should be transformational, helping humans understand themselves as part of a larger cosmic family. Religion, Creation, and the Many Mansions of the Universe The film's spiritual themes are also central to the panel's review. Alan, Linda, and the Hurtaks discuss the Catholic sister character in the film, who recognizes that the universe is too vast to exist only for humanity. They connect this idea to the Book of Genesis, Christ consciousness, the New Testament phrase about “many mansions,” ancient Coptic and Greek texts, and the idea that creation includes many levels of life and intelligence. Rather than seeing extraterrestrial intelligence as opposed to spirituality, the panel presents it as part of a larger divine creation story in which humanity must expand its understanding of soul, consciousness, and cosmic purpose. What Spielberg Shows — and What He Leaves for Later The group praises Spielberg's restraint but also discusses what the film does not fully show. Linda says she wished Spielberg had introduced more kinds of non-human intelligences, including tall whites, Nordics, reptilians, plasma beings, and other forms she has encountered through witness testimony. Alan suggests Spielberg may be taking the public slowly by first introducing one or two categories of extraterrestrial presence before expanding into a wider range of beings. The panel agrees that the film is likely only the beginning of a broader cultural process and that future films, government releases, or public disclosures may reveal a more complicated landscape. Disclosure, Timing, and a Planet Under Pressure The panel repeatedly asks why this film and this moment are happening now. Linda suggests the timing may relate to future geophysical changes, solar activity, rising oceans, environmental instability, and the possibility that extraterrestrial assistance may become necessary for humanity's survival. Alan connects the timing to recent government disclosures and the public release of UFO/UAP information, while Dr. J.J. Hurtak frames the moment as a sociological, psychological, economic, planetary, and spiritual convergence. The group agrees that humanity is being prepared for contact because the old reality is no longer sufficient. The Soul, Empathy, and the Next Stage of Humanity A major theme in the latter part of the program is the soul. Linda shares memories from childhood of feeling a protective pressure in her chest while looking at an image of Christ with lambs, a feeling she still associates with soul, protection, and love. Dr. J.J. Hurtak describes the soul as the inner architecture of life, a field of consciousness that continues beyond the body. Dr. Desiree Hurtak adds that different beings may have different levels of soul evolution, and that humanity is learning to access abilities such as remote viewing, telepathy, and higher-dimensional awareness. Alan says these gifts of the spirit may allow humans to meet non-human intelligences on a more equal footing. “Listen”: The Word at the Doorway The panel gives special attention to the film's final message: listen. They interpret the word as a call to listen to extraterrestrials, higher intelligence, divine purpose, inner senses, compassion, and one another. For Dr. J.J. Hurtak, this connects to sacred language and the ancient call to hear the divine frequency. Alan sees Spielberg's film as a “signifying agent,” a cultural bridge that helps people move from an old reality into new realities. The episode closes with a shared prayer from Linda, “May the thought that dwells in the light protect us forever,” followed by Alan's disclosure-themed song, “Did You See It?”, which he presents as an anthem for this new moment.

Alan Steinfeld Welcomes Robert Schoch to New Realities In this episode of New Realities / Portal to Ascension Radio, host Alan Steinfeld welcomes geologist and author Robert Schoch for a wide-ranging conversation about ancient civilization, the Great Sphinx, John Anthony West, solar outbursts, and what the past may reveal about humanity's future. Alan introduces Schoch as a geologist whose work helped bring geological analysis into controversial archaeological questions, especially through his redating of the Great Sphinx. Schoch explains that he teaches at Boston University, holds a PhD from Yale in geology and geophysics, and believes there was an earlier sophisticated cycle of civilization dating back to at least around 10,000 BC. John Anthony West and Symbolist Egypt Alan and Schoch spend significant time discussing the late John Anthony West, whom Schoch describes as both a close friend and research collaborator. Schoch explains that West was not a conventional academic Egyptologist, but had spent decades studying Egypt, astrology, symbolism, and the work of R. A. Schwaller de Lubicz. Together, they discuss the symbolist view of Egypt, which argues that the ancient Egyptians were not primitive animal worshipers, but encoded sophisticated spiritual, philosophical, and symbolic knowledge in their texts, monuments, and religious imagery. Schoch says West often criticized conventional academics for missing the deeper meaning behind Egyptian symbols. Meeting West and First Seeing the Sphinx Schoch recounts how he first met John Anthony West through a faculty member at Boston University who arranged for West to give a talk and then introduced him to Schoch. West had been looking for an open-minded geologist to evaluate whether the Sphinx showed signs of water weathering. Schoch says he was cautious at first and told West that photographs were not enough; he would need to inspect the site in Egypt. In 1990, West invited him to Egypt for a reconnaissance trip, and Schoch says that within seconds of seeing the Sphinx, he recognized weathering patterns that appeared to be caused by rainfall and runoff rather than Nile flooding. Water Weathering and the Recarved Head A major part of the interview centers on Schoch's geological interpretation of the Sphinx. He argues that the body and enclosure show evidence of water weathering from precipitation, which would push the monument's origins back to a much wetter period before the modern Sahara. He also says he immediately noticed that the Sphinx's head was too small for its body and not weathered in the same way, leading him to conclude that the current head was likely recarved from an earlier, more weathered head. Schoch says he believes the original head may have been a lion or lioness, later reshaped into a dynastic human head when the Sphinx was reused or reappropriated. Egypt, Western Civilization, and Ancient Continuity Alan and Schoch also discuss Egypt's influence on later civilizations. They note that Greek philosophers such as Pythagoras and Plato acknowledged learning from Egyptian traditions, and they connect Egyptian symbolism with later religious and cultural forms, including Judaism and Christianity. Schoch and Alan discuss parallels involving Isis, Horus, Osiris, the ark, the altar, the Virgin Mary, and the Christian mass, presenting these connections as part of a larger continuity between Egypt and the foundations of Western civilization. Schoch frames the ancient Egyptian tradition as one that preserved deep symbolic and sacred knowledge, not merely mythology or primitive belief. The End of the Last Ice Age and Solar Catastrophe The conversation then turns to Schoch's theory that a major solar outburst around 9700 BC helped end the last Ice Age and devastated an earlier cycle of civilization. Schoch argues that the Sun became highly active, producing solar eruptions, coronal mass ejections, atmospheric disruption, radiation, vitrification, torrential rains, massive flooding, and rapid climate change. He distinguishes this from comet-impact theories, saying he believes the evidence better fits solar activity. In his view, the Sphinx's water weathering, worldwide flood traditions, and the collapse of earlier civilizations may all connect to this solar-driven catastrophe. Atlantis, Zep Tepi, and Gobekli Tepe Schoch links his Sphinx work with broader questions about lost civilization. He discusses Zep Tepi, the Egyptian “first time,” and says that astronomical and geological evidence may point to a period around 10,500 BC. Alan asks about Atlantis, and Schoch explains that he treats Atlantis less as a single geographic puzzle and more as evidence, through Plato, of a sophisticated civilization or cultural memory that existed before the end of the last Ice Age. Near the close, they also discuss Göbekli Tepe in Turkey, which Schoch says provides independent evidence of sophisticated civilization before 9700 BC and helps answer critics who once asked for another early site comparable in significance to the Sphinx. Solar Risk, Technology, and Modern Vulnerability Alan asks whether a similar solar event could happen again, and Schoch says he believes another major solar outburst is not only possible but inevitable over geological time. Schoch warns that modern technological civilization is extremely vulnerable to coronal mass ejections, solar flares, and electromagnetic effects that could disrupt electrical grids, communication systems, electronics, satellites, cars, pipelines, and nuclear power facilities. He compares the potential danger to the Carrington Event of 1859, which damaged telegraph systems, and says today's dependence on electronics makes modern society far more vulnerable than earlier cultures. Preparing Philosophically, Spiritually, and Practically Schoch says that although governments may be aware of solar risks, ordinary people face difficult practical questions because modern infrastructure is not easily protected. He suggests that going underground or shielding systems beneath rock could help preserve some technology, but acknowledges that society cannot simply move underground. He and Alan discuss the need for communities to think ahead, prepare mentally and spiritually, and consider both practical resilience and philosophical readiness. Schoch says ancient Egypt's concept of sacred science may be important here because it joins science and spirituality rather than separating them. Closing with Ancient Knowledge and Future Questions Toward the end, Alan describes Schoch's work as a bridge between alternative culture and academic research. Schoch says studying the past is not only interesting for its own sake, but may reveal knowledge, warnings, technologies, and spiritual insights left by earlier civilizations. He points again to the Great Pyramid, the Sphinx Temple, and Göbekli Tepe as evidence that ancient people may have possessed both spiritual and technological sophistication beyond what mainstream timelines usually allow. The episode closes with Alan directing listeners to New Realities, Robert Schoch's website, and the Portal to Ascension Conference in Irvine, California, where Schoch plans to speak further about these themes.

On this episode of Talking Shop I'm joined by Alain Bejjani—former Group CEO of Middle East retail giant Majid Al Futtaim, and author of the definitive new book, NEXT: Leading Through the New Realities. Drawing on his childhood in war-torn Beirut, and his experience steering a $9.5bn dollar retail and lifestyle empire through a global pandemic, Alain brings an unmatched perspective on leadership under pressure. Today, we break down his crisis survival playbook for retailers operating in distress. We discuss why resilience must always outpace efficiency, the four assets a brand must protect at all costs, and how to turn macro-turmoil into a long-term direction that scales.

New Realities with Alan Steinfeld Experiencers, Disclosure, and the Consciousness Behind UFO Contact Guests, Meredith Spearman, Holly Ann Wood and Richard Monck Introducing the UAP Experiencer Discussion In this episode of New Realities, Alan Steinfeld presents a UAPedia-sponsored discussion from the latest UAP Con, focused on UFO contact, anomalous experiences, consciousness, and the experiencer community. The panel features Meredith Spearman, Holly Ann Wood, and Richard Monk, each bringing a personal and research-based perspective to the topic. Alan frames the conversation around the challenge of integrating extraordinary experiences into a culture that often rejects or ridicules them, especially when those experiences do not fit ordinary scientific, social, or psychological frameworks. Meredith Spearman on Silence, Initiation, and Witnessing Meredith Spearman shares her childhood contact experience, beginning around age eight, and describes how the encounter dissolved the boundary between observer and observed. She explains that the phenomenon seemed to meet her rather than simply appear before her, creating a mutual and deeply transformative experience. Meredith says the experience ran through family lines, along with a learned silence around it, and that she carried it privately for decades before writing and speaking publicly. She frames contact not as hallucination, but as a form of initiation that can dissolve old identity, force a revision of reality, expand relational awareness, and permanently change a person's understanding of existence. Containers for Extraordinary Experience A major part of Meredith's presentation focuses on the need for social and cultural “containers” to help people integrate experiences that disrupt ordinary reality. She compares modern experiencers to ancient initiates, shamans, mystics, and those who crossed thresholds in traditions such as Eleusis, where ritual, elders, preparation, and community helped turn crisis into transformation. Without such support, she argues, the same experience can leave a person isolated or broken. She also compares experiencer testimony to pain in medicine, saying that even when the cause cannot be proven externally, the lived experience still deserves recognition, compassion, and care. Holly Ann Wood on Contact, Consciousness, and Safe Spaces Holly Ann Wood, known as “That UAP Girl,” shares her own childhood encounter with three orange orbs near the ancient white horse carved into the chalk hills of Wiltshire. She explains that the experience did not feel random or distant, but present, aware, and interactive. Holly emphasizes that UAP encounters are not only scientific questions, but human ones, affecting people psychologically, emotionally, spiritually, and sometimes physically. She argues that experiencers need safe spaces where they can speak without stigma, process what happened, and realize they are not alone, which led her to create Project Nano as a place to discover, discuss, and disclose these experiences. Richard Monk on High Strangeness and Personal Transformation Richard Monk discusses three unusual experiences from his life that he once saw as separate, but later began to understand as connected through the lens of high strangeness. As a child in 1980, he saw a classic saucer-shaped craft near a cloud while a nearby girl did not see it, raising questions about perception, manifestation, and the relationship between witness and phenomenon. He also describes having an imaginary friend named Nicholas as a child and later learning that imaginary companions sometimes appear in the histories of people who report UAP encounters. Finally, he shares a near-death-like experience involving a profound, loving nothingness that later helped him explore consciousness, the pleroma, and the possibility that these events form part of a deeper personal curriculum. Disclosure, Empathy, and a New Reality The panel discussion turns to how experiencers can help society move toward disclosure. Alan, Meredith, Holly, and Richard discuss whether humanity is going through a collective initiation, whether personal disclosure may matter as much as official disclosure, and how the public can learn to acknowledge experiences without needing to fully explain them first. Meredith emphasizes that the empathy question can be answered before the ontological question: even if we cannot prove exactly what happened, we can still recognize that someone experienced something meaningful. The episode closes with UAPedia's presentation of its mission as a trusted UAP knowledge hub, bringing together research, testimony, documents, claims, cases, and experiencer perspectives into a more coherent public resource.

New Realities with Alan Steinfeld Beyond the Reality Box, UAP Encounters, Ontological Shock, and the Future of Human Narrative This panel discussion features Whitley Strieber, Dr. Kimberly Engels, and Jeffrey Kripal exploring the profound "meanings and understandings" behind UAP encounters. The conversation shifts focus from government disclosure to the transformative, physical, and ontological impact on the individuals who experience these phenomena. The Physical Baseline and the Burden of Testimony Whitley Strieber emphasizes that the core challenge in understanding UAP encounters is the lack of a recognized "baseline." Despite the public tendency to treat these accounts as jokes or hallucinations, Strieber highlights the undeniable physical trauma and documented anomalies, such as the moving implant in his ear, which he describes as "proof positive" of a physical interaction. Following the publication of his book Communion, Strieber and his wife Anne received approximately 200,000 letters from individuals worldwide. This massive, private archive suggests a "communal work" of experience that intersects with our physical world at a "razor's edge," generating a narrative that humanity has yet to fully articulate. Resisting "Narrative Flattening" Dr. Kimberly Engels argues that society suffers from "epistemic injustice" by forcing experiencer testimony into "reality boxes." This "narrative flattening" occurs when we only listen to parts of a story that fit our pre-existing beliefs, such as the Extraterrestrial or Future Human hypotheses, while discarding "inconvenient" details like time distortions or contact with the dead. She proposes a "layered restorative phenomenology" that moves beyond "belief" and into "participation." This approach honors the profound moral and ethical transformations reported by experiencers, who often emerge with a "post-anthropocentric" worldview and a deep sense of interconnectedness with all life. The Archives of the Impossible and the New Story Jeffrey Kripal, curator of the "Archives of the Impossible" at Rice University, suggests that we are witnessing the breakdown of old cultural and scientific stories. He posits that UAPs, Near-Death Experiences (NDEs), and DMT-induced states may all exist on the same spectrum of "non-dual signals" that blur the boundaries between mind and matter. Kripal argues that the "impossible" is merely a function of our current models, not reality itself. He advocates for a "middle realm" of thought—one that avoids the reductionism of modern science and the moralizing of traditional religion—to allow for a "revelation of reality" where humanity is no longer the apex or center of the universe. The panel concludes that humanity is at a "zero point" or a "reset," where our current understanding of consciousness and physicality is no longer sufficient. By embracing "ontological ambiguity" and the "middle realm," we can move past the shock of the impossible and begin to participate in a multi-dimensional reality that demands a more holistic, interconnected story of what it means to be human.

“We are not living in a dead universe. We are living inside a field of consciousness—and we are just beginning to remember.” - Alan Steinfeld What if everything you thought you knew about reality… was only one layer?In this expansive and thought-provoking episode of Gateways to Awakening, Yasmeen Turayhi sits down with researcher, author, and founder of New Realities, Alan Steinfeld, to explore one of the most fascinating and misunderstood topics of our time: UFOs, extraterrestrial intelligence, and the evolving nature of human consciousness.Together, they unpack the history of the phenomenon—from Roswell to modern-day whistleblowers—and explore why conversations around disclosure are accelerating globally. But beyond the headlines, this conversation goes deeper into what may be the real story: not just extraterrestrial contact, but a fundamental shift in how we understand consciousness itself.Alan shares insights on the intersection of UFO phenomena, telepathy, remote viewing, and non-local awareness, offering a perspective that challenges the traditional materialist view of reality. Yasmeen brings her own lens of intuition, multidimensional awareness, and energetic intelligence, bridging the conversation into the realms of embodiment, knowing, and inner perception.This episode also explores:The difference between thinking and knowing—and why it mattersWhy fear of the unknown has been conditioned into usThe role of dreams, creativity, and altered states in accessing higher intelligenceThe connection between consciousness, extraterrestrial contact, and human evolutionWhat “disclosure” might actually mean—and why it is as much internal as it is externalThroughout the conversation, a deeper theme emerges: that humanity is not separate from the phenomena we are observing. We are part of it.As Alan shares, the universe is not something happening outside of us—it is something we are actively participating in.This is not just a conversation about UFOs.It is a conversation about who we are, what we are capable of, and what becomes possible when we move beyond fear… and into awareness.Tune in to Gateways to Awakening for more conversations with leading thinkers, creators, and spiritual pioneers shaping the future of consciousness. We would love to hear from you!

Martin "Marty" Strong is a former Navy SEAL, business leader, and author who challenges conventional thinking about how companies — and their leaders — must operate in a rapidly changing world. He is currently the co-founder and CEO of the Warrior's Haven USA Foundation. Over two decades as a SEAL, Marty led 36 special operations missions in high-stakes, unpredictable environments where adaptability was essential. He later brought that same mindset to the private sector, including eight years as a portfolio manager serving high-net-worth clients at UBS. Drawing on both experiences, Marty argues that past success can become a hidden liability. Too many leaders rely on methods that once worked, without recognizing that the marketplace has fundamentally changed. The result: decisions based on outdated assumptions rather than current realities. As Marty explains, it's like using an old encyclopedia to solve modern problems — confident, but dangerously misinformed. In this conversation, Marty shares how leaders can recognize when their thinking has become rigid, develop intellectual humility, and build organizations that are nimble enough to adapt before disruption forces their hand.

This week on the GeekWire Podcast, a week of Seattle-area startup news shows how the AI era is reshaping the regional tech scene. Q1 venture numbers reveal bigger checks going to fewer companies, with Seattle slipping behind the likes of Austin and Miami on deal volume. And yet the distributed nature of modern startups is complicating what it even means to be a regional tech hub. (Does a mailbox in Pioneer Square really count as a Seattle headquarters?) Founders and CEOs are navigating the shakeout in different ways. Those with enough cash in the bank are eyeing strategic acquisitions, including opportunities to absorb startups caught up in the AI shakeout. Meanwhile, many startup leaders are completely rethinking how they hire and expand. More than a third of the GeekWire 200, our ranking of the top Pacific Northwest startups, saw year-over-year employment declines, as agents boost individual productivity and start to reshape the workforce. Plus: Andy Jassy's shareholder letter signals Amazon is making bets again, in areas including chips and robotics. Driving home the point, the tech giant's ambitious Globalstar acquisition effectively means it's inheriting Apple's satellite roadmap. And of course we have to talk about Allbirds. The sustainable shoe brand, which once challenged Amazon over knock-off sneakers, pivoted to AI infrastructure and saw its stock soar.

New Realities with Alan Steinfeld Dr. Diane Hennacy (the inspiration for the Telepathy Tapes) on the Wisdom of Autism & Psychic Mind This interview features neuropsychiatrist Dr. Diane Hennessy, who discusses a revolutionary perspective on autism as a state of heightened consciousness and telepathic potential. She explores the neurobiological "hardware" behind these gifts and proposes that autistic individuals may be leading an evolutionary leap for humanity. The Neurobiology of Heightened Awareness Dr. Hennessy explains that the "autistic" experience is rooted in the heightened activity of three principal brainstem nuclei: the Raphe nuclei (regulating sleep and dream states), the Locus Coeruleus (the fight-or-flight "button" that can expand time perception), and the Substantia Nigra (linking free will to physical movement). In autistic individuals, the neurotransmitters associated with these areas are significantly elevated, creating a permanent state that mirrors the expanded consciousness achieved by advanced meditators or "gurus." However, this internal "race car" intensity often clashes with a physical body that struggles to keep pace, leading to high anxiety and motor challenges. Communication Barriers and the Role of AI A major theme of the discussion is the "discrepancy" between the speed of an autistic mind and the slowness of physical communication. Dr. Hennessy describes current methods like spelling as "crawling when you could win a four-minute mile." She is exploring the use of Artificial Intelligence to assist in communication but warns that we must be careful not to let AI algorithms "make things up" or distort the original intent. The goal is to provide a "voice" to individuals who, like Stephen Hawking, possess immense intellectual gifts—such as synesthesia and perfect pitch—but lack the traditional hardware for self-expression. The "Jane Goodall" Research Philosophy Dr. Hennessy adopts a "lunar" or receptive research style, which she compares to Jane Goodall's field observations. Rather than imposing "solar" analytical rules or forcing subjects to speak, she emphasizes "hanging out" and observing to enter their world. She posits that autistic individuals often function through "entrainment"—where their high-frequency brainwaves can actually upgrade the consciousness of those in their presence. This suggests that the best way to learn from them is not through interrogation, but through quiet, shared presence and "receiving transmissions" without words. The Sedona Ascension Retreat 2026 The interview highlights the upcoming 11th Anniversary Sedona Ascension Retreat (March 20-22, 2026). This event aims to create a "conducive environment" for entrainment, featuring Dr. Hennessy alongside other experts like Dalia Bergorn (mindsight) and Darryl Anka (Bashar). The retreat is designed to help participants activate their own "sixth sense" by being in the presence of gifted savants and learning to tune into higher frequencies of information. Dr. Diane Hennessy's work shifts the narrative of autism from one of "disability" to one of "advanced capability." By understanding the neurobiological basis for their heightened states, she argues that humanity can learn to "tune" its own consciousness, ultimately replacing outdated scientific paradigms with a more integrated, high-frequency understanding of the human mind.

International Conference “Jewish Immigration from Eastern Europe to Israel and Germany in the Light of the War in Ukraine (1991-2025). Narratives, Memory and Identity Formation” December 2025 in Munich. The Russian full-scale invasion of Ukraine in 2022 has triggered one of the largest refugee crises in recent European history. Over 1.2 million Ukrainian citizens have received temporary protection in Germany, while a significant number of refugees—Jewish or of Jewish origin—have also sought refuge in Israel and received citizenship under the Law of Return. The experiences of Ukrainian Jews in the wake of the war offer an important lens through which to examine broader patterns of Jewish migration from Eastern Europe over the past four decades. This two-day interdisciplinary conference, organized by the Leonid Nevzlin Research Center for Russian and East European Jewry at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem, the Leibnitz Center for Contemporary History Potsdam and the Center for Israel Studies at Ludwig-Maximilians-Universität in Munich, aims to juxtapose two pivotal periods of Jewish migration to Israel and Germany—the post-Soviet 1990s and the post-2022 Ukrainian crisis. By bringing together scholars from the humanities and social sciences, the conference seeks to enrich our understanding of the shifting meanings of Jewish belonging, displacement, and diaspora in the 21st century.

Narratives, Memory and Identity Formation” December 2025 in Munich. The Russian full-scale invasion of Ukraine in 2022 has triggered one of the largest refugee crises in recent European history. Over 1.2 million Ukrainian citizens have received temporary protection in Germany, while a significant number of refugees—Jewish or of Jewish origin—have also sought refuge in Israel and received citizenship under the Law of Return. The experiences of Ukrainian Jews in the wake of the war offer an important lens through which to examine broader patterns of Jewish migration from Eastern Europe over the past four decades. This two-day interdisciplinary conference, organized by the Leonid Nevzlin Research Center for Russian and East European Jewry at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem, the Leibnitz Center for Contemporary History Potsdam and the Center for Israel Studies at Ludwig-Maximilians-Universität in Munich, aims to juxtapose two pivotal periods of Jewish migration to Israel and Germany—the post-Soviet 1990s and the post-2022 Ukrainian crisis. By bringing together scholars from the humanities and social sciences, the conference seeks to enrich our understanding of the shifting meanings of Jewish belonging, displacement, and diaspora in the 21st century. Through historical, sociological, and cultural analyses, we aim to build a comparative framework for analyzing Jewish migration in the context of political rupture, memory politics, and transnational identity formation.

This week, Thomas sits down with celebrated speaker, posthumanist thinker, poet, teacher, and author, Bayo Akomolafe, for a philosophical and spiritual exploration into how we understand reality and the radical perception shifts and awakenings that are necessary for true social transformation to become possible.In his uniquely poetic way, Bayo interrogates traditional solutions to social and ecological problems that only uphold harmful norms, and offers that real change is brought about through what he calls “cracks”—disruptions to systems and modes of thinking that inspire new ideas instead of trying to bring about change via the ineffective paths that are already built into our failing social structures.He and Thomas discuss the discomfort that comes with ushering in new realities, and how important it is that we lean in to this uncomfortable uncertainty, embrace radical compassion, and rethink our relationship to the more-than-human world.✨ Watch the video version of this episode on YouTube:

On this episode of the Debtwire Municipals Muni Lowdown podcast, Managing Editor Paul Greaves speaks with public finance expert Liz Farmer about the shifting realities facing state and local budgets.Liz begins by outlining what feels stable—and what feels newly uncertain—as governments enter another budget cycle. From there, she unpacks how rapid federal policy shifts and more assertive federal actions are reshaping the planning environment for states and municipalities.Paul and Liz then explore the growing impact of geopolitical tensions on local finances, including supply‑chain pressures, energy‑related cost spikes, and the ripple effects these create for capital projects and service delivery.They zoom out to examine the broader forces redefining public budgeting—from demographic changes to rising service costs, climate‑driven spending, and other structural trends that deserve far more attention.Liz closes the episode with a forward‑looking take on what state and local leaders should be preparing for in the year ahead—and the under‑discussed risks and opportunities that could matter most for long‑term fiscal resilience.

New Realities with Alan Steinfeld Expert on #NDE and Life After Life Raymond Moody - Recreating the ancient Greek Oracles of the Dead Raymond A. Moody Jr.is an American philosopher, psychiatrist, physician and author, most widely known for his books about afterlife. He coined the term near-death experiences or NDE in 1975 with his best-selling book "Life After Life". His research explores personal accounts of subjective phenomena encountered in near-death experiences, particularly those of people who have apparently died but been resuscitated. He has widely published his views on what he terms near-death-experience psychology. Alan Steinfeld's new book is called Making Contact: The New Realities of Extraterrestial Existence: For a copy, go https://www.amazon.com/Making-Contact-Preparing-Realities-Extraterrestrial/dp/1250773946 The book contains original writings by: Linda Moulton Howe, Whitley Strieber Professor John E. Mack, Darryl Anka, Nick Pope, Grant Cameron, Drs. J.J. and Desiree Hurtak, Caroline Cory, Mary Rodwell, Henrietta Weekes. Alan Steinfeld, contributes and curates the collection with 30 years of experience with the subject. The Foreword by George Noory of Coast to Coast AM kicks off the volume with his veteran overview of the need to wake up to the “new realities of extraterrestrial existence. #AlanSteinfeld has been involved with Disclosure since his experiences as a young child. From that time, he realized that the only way for humanity to accept the fact that we are not alone – is to shift our worldview about what we think is possible. In this way, he feels we must transcend the old limitations of our mind and tap into what is beyond mainstream psychology, beyond our education, our religions, and our political ideologies. He feels that Disclosure is “an inside job.” It is only when we wake up to who we really are as galactic beings that the cosmos will come to greet us in our magnificence. #NewRealities From this platform, he has interviewed every top researcher in the UFO field; forming close alliances to such people as John Mack, Budd Hopkins, Richard Dolan, and Linda Moulton Howe. He has also been one the main emcees at Contact in the Desert.

Consciousness researcher Alan Steinfeld explains why expanded awareness and remote viewing may hold the secret to connecting with non-human intelligence in episode 234 of the Far Out with Faust podcast.Alan Steinfeld is a researcher, educator, and media host focused on consciousness, non-human intelligence, and the nature of contact beyond conventional scientific models. He is the creator and host of  @newrealities a long-running interview series featuring leading voices in consciousness studies, spirituality, and UFO research. Steinfeld is also the author of Making Contact: Preparing for the New Realities of Extraterrestrial Existence, which explores how expanded awareness may shape humanity's understanding of contact.In this conversation, Faust and Alan Steinfeld move beyond standard disclosure debates to examine whether contact with non-human intelligence is less about government revelations and more about perception itself. Steinfeld describes the growing sense of disclosure fatigue and argues that the phenomenon may not conform to political timelines or institutional control. He walks Faust through a live remote viewing exercise, using it as a practical demonstration of non-local perception and how information may be accessed outside conventional sensory limits. Rather than treating contact as a future announcement or external event, the discussion reframes it as an experiential process — raising deeper questions about awareness, agency, and what it actually means to be ready for contact.In this episode:

New Realities with Alan Steinfeld Making Contact with UFO Experiencers

Thanks for being present with me for the conversation today as dig into the subject of UFO's or as they are being rebranded now UAP- unidentified anomalous phenomena. UFO's are having a resurgence of interest since the government hearings in September of 2025. These hearings were held by the House Oversight Committee's Task Force on the Declassification of Federal Secrets and was titled "Restoring Public Trust Through UAP Transparency and Whistleblower Protection". There were key witnesses to UFO activity from credible sources like US Air Force veterans. To explore this topic further and find out new information I'm visiting with Alan Steinfeld author of Making Contact who has been writing and studying UFO phenomena for over 30 years.

DCF Trends Summit 2025 Session Recap As the data center industry accelerates into an AI-driven expansion cycle, the fundamentals of site selection and investment are being rewritten. In this session from the Data Center Frontier Trends Summit 2025, Ed Socia of datacenterHawk moderated a discussion with Denitza Arguirova of Provident Data Centers, Karen Petersburg of PowerHouse Data Centers, Brian Winterhalter of DLA Piper, Phill Lawson-Shanks of Aligned Data Centers, and Fred Bayles of Cologix on how power scarcity, entitlement complexity, and community scrutiny are reshaping where—and how—data centers get built. A central theme of the conversation was that power, not land, now drives site selection. Panelists described how traditional assumptions around transmission timelines and flat electricity pricing no longer apply, pushing developers toward Tier 2 and Tier 3 markets, power-first strategies, and closer partnerships with utilities. On-site generation, particularly natural gas, was discussed as a short-term bridge rather than a permanent substitute for grid interconnection. The group also explored how entitlement processes in mature markets have become more demanding. Economic development benefits alone are no longer sufficient; jurisdictions increasingly expect higher-quality design, sensitivity to surrounding communities, and tangible off-site investments. Panelists emphasized that credibility—earned through experience, transparency, and demonstrated follow-through—has become essential to securing approvals. Sustainability and ESG considerations remain critical, but the discussion took a pragmatic view of scale. Meeting projected data center demand will require a mix of energy sources, with renewables complemented by transitional solutions and evolving PPA structures. Community engagement was highlighted as equally important, extending beyond environmental metrics to include workforce development, education, and long-term social investment. Artificial intelligence added another layer of complexity. While large AI training workloads can operate in remote locations, monetized AI applications increasingly demand proximity to users. Rapid hardware cycles, megawatt-scale racks, and liquid-cooling requirements are driving more modular, adaptable designs—often within existing data center portfolios. The session closed with a look at regional opportunity and investor expectations, with markets such as Pennsylvania, Alabama, Ohio, and Oklahoma cited for their utility relationships and development readiness. The overarching conclusion was clear: the traditional data center blueprint still matters—but power strategy, flexibility, and authentic community integration now define success.

What really changed in the points and miles world this year—and how should that shape your strategy going forward?   In part two of our 2025 Year in Review, Kelly and I continue breaking down one of the most transformative years we've seen in award travel. Beyond rising annual fees and tightening loyalty programs, this year revealed deeper structural shifts in how airlines price awards, who gets access to the best redemptions, and what flexibility actually looks like going forward.   We dig into the continued expansion of dynamic pricing—and why it isn't always the disaster it's made out to be. You'll hear real examples of when dynamic pricing has increased access and value, along with why moments of program change can sometimes be the best time to book.   We also explore how airlines are reshaping award access around status and cardholder loyalty in ways that go far beyond free bags or early boarding. For the first time, elite status and co-branded cards are directly impacting award availability, pricing, and even whether certain premium cabins can be booked at all.   We wrap it all up by zooming out to talk about what all of this means for 2026 and beyond—how transferable points are evolving, why diversification matters more than ever, and how to think strategically about status in a landscape that's clearly shifting.   If you enjoyed part one of our year in review, this conversation brings the full picture into focus.   Get full show notes and transcript: https://pointmetofirstclass.com/2025-points-miles-year-in-review-part-2/    Want to shape the show?
