The government wants you to look at the physical sky, but the real mystery is happening right next to us in parallel dimensions. In this episode, we expose the flaws in the nuts and bolts theory of extraterrestrials. David Curtis argues that UFOs and aliens are not traveling light years across space, they are interdimensional beings bleeding through the fabric of our reality. This matches the ancient secrets kept by practitioners of the occult who have bypassed physical barriers for millennia.Through directed meditation, David Curtis has witnessed these manifestations firsthand, demonstrating that UFO Summoning is a matter of tuning your frequency rather than building a radar. This perspective completely shifts how we interpret spiritual history, framing biblical angels as interdimensional guardians and protectors. We break down how mainstream dogmas have blinded us to the true nature of reality.When citizens open their intuition to this truth, they begin to experience wild synchronicities that match the experiences of historical mystics. We investigate how the Holy Spirit guides this awakening process, leading people to a shocking state of cosmic oneness with all things. Start looking at the hidden dimensions right in front of your eyes.✨ Download Our FREE Throne Room Meditation✨ ➡️ https://www.truthseekah.com ➡️Join our online community at https://www.truthseekah.com ➡️ Support on Patreon! https://patreon.com/join/truthseekah✅ Get access to 40+ video lessons + Weekly LIVE calls!✅ Worldwide Online Community!✅ Courses, Monthly Webinars, Prayer, Meditation, Discussion✅ TruthSeekah's Meditation Library

This time we're starting with the Bottom of 2015 in our “Tops and Bottoms” series (dammit, why does Mike keep giggling at that title?) and the biggest money loser of 2015 was “Jem and the Holograms,” a live action movie based on an 80's cartoon about a girl-group popstar band. Now, regardless of what we have to say about this movie, I have to point out that this film was clearly doomed from the start. What was John Chu thinking when he signed on to direct? If you're going to adapt a cartoon about a musical group, how could you choose anything other than that under-appreciated classic “Jabberjaw”?! I mean, really, how can you top a talking shark who does an impression of Curly Howard while using Rodney Dangerfield's classic catchphrase “I don't get no respect!” Comedy gold! I'm thinking Ryan Reynolds for Biff, Margot Robie for Bubbles, Megan Fox as Shelley, Jared Leto as Clamhead, and Sir Ian McKellen as the voice of a CGI Jabberjaw. My god, it writes itself! Hanna-Barbera, you're sitting on an untapped gold mine! You could make the underwater world of the show a kind of dystopian, post-apocalyptic setting! Think “Waterworld” meets “Josie and the Pussycats in Outer Space”! Have your people call my people! In the meantime, give a listen as we discuss what these poor saps actually chose for source material. So misguided . . . Poll question: can you think of a cartoon show from your past that would make a good live-action movie? Leave a comment or call our live-action hotline at 617-398-7266

Welcome back to the Horror Project Podcast!This week, Laura and Phil take on the cult classic Killer Klowns from Outer Space (1988). When teens(!?) Mike and Debbie witness a comet crash near their small town, they uncover a bizarre invasion—aliens disguised as sinister circus clowns. Unsurprisingly, no one believes them.It's a first-time watch for both hosts, so we're asking: is this a hidden gem or one we've somehow managed to avoid for good reason?We chat about the unforgettable clown designs, the inventive practical effects, the strange antics of the Terenzi brothers, and even a touch of small-town romance thrown into the chaos. Plus, we compare these killer clowns to other iconic horror favourites.Thanks for listening!Email - Horrorprojectpodcast@hotmail.com Instagram - horrorprojectpodcastTikTok - @horrorprojectpodcastSay Hi - Send The Horror Project a Message!

What kind of man doesn't drink, avoids women, and prefers the company of other strange men in the park? Gene Fowler Jr.'s I Married a Monster from Outer Space (1958) plays the alien-infiltration premise with surprising melancholy and remarkable restraint for a film with such a lurid title. Mike, Bill Ackerman, and Ben Buckingham dig into the film's overlapping readings — Cold War paranoia, the Lavender Scare, queer coding, and a feminist critique the film simultaneously makes and undermines. They also take on the 1998 UPN TV remake directed by Nancy Malone and Rand Ravich's The Astronaut's Wife (1999), tracing how the same essential story mutates across four decades of American anxiety.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-projection-booth--5513239/support.Become a supporter of The Projection Booth at http://www.patreon.com/projectionbooth

Tom Mueller is driving his candy green Porsche Taycan Turbo S the way he builds rocket engines: with a terrifying amount of instantaneous thrust and little regard for the local speed limits of El Segundo. He is headed west on Marine Avenue, cutting through the smog-tinted sunlight of Los Angeles' South Bay aerospace corridor, talking about Earth's limitations. “If we continue to grow like we have, eventually you just use up all the metals, you use up all the energy,” says Mueller, 65, who is especially concerned by the energy demand of AI data centers. “By about 2045, the total power that the world is generating right now would be needed just for compute. Exponential growth can crush resources on Earth.” From behind his reflective wrap-around shades, Mueller spots a gap in the afternoon congestion. His electric sports car can rocket from zero to 60 in 2.3 seconds, and Mueller seems eager to demonstrate the point. “This is where we accelerate,” he says, stomping on the pedal. The torque hits like a physical blow, pinning us against the leather seats as Mueller cackles. “The moon and the near-Earth asteroids,” he continues moments later, now parked at a red light, “contain billions of tons of metal, silicon, water and ice, so we have to start using it. It seems a little farfetched to start using it now, because we just haven't built the space economy. We haven't got there yet.” By John Hyatt, Forbes Staff Alicia Park, Reporter Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
This week on And Now For Something Completely Machinima, Phil Rice, Tracy Harwood and Damien Valentine dive into Michael Is Very Vintage's hilarious Garry's Mod space comedy An Astounding Tale from Outer Space. What begins as a simple spaceship emergency quickly spirals into absurdity when an incompetent captain decides that cloning himself is a better solution than actually fixing the problem.The team explores the film's brilliant use of slapstick comedy, satirical storytelling, inventive sound design, and surprisingly sophisticated filmmaking craft. From Alien and Red Dwarf influences to hidden Easter eggs, classic action-movie tropes, and the unique creative possibilities of Garry's Mod, this episode celebrates one of the most entertaining machinima films of the year.Along the way, the discussion turns to Michael's growing signature style, the role of game-engine accidents in comedy, the future of machinima creators working in platforms like Garry's Mod, iClone and Unreal Engine, and whether works like this have a place beyond YouTube in archives, festivals, and cultural collections.This week's pick is a love letter to inventive machinima, creative chaos, and the enduring power of comedic timing. 01:16 – Damien introduces the film and explains why he picked it04:05 – Tracy's reaction: why this is her favourite film of the month05:00 – Cloning, delegation, bureaucracy and the film's satirical core06:30 – Garry's Mod humour, slapstick physics and six personalities from one character07:45 – Alien, Red Dwarf, Futurama and classic sci-fi influences09:26 – The ending, anti-climax as comedy, and why it works10:00 – Outstanding sound design, voice acting and comic timing12:32 – Phil's review: comparing the film to Ridiculous Ties and other animated comedy machinima13:12 – Why Michael Is Very Vintage is developing a distinctive creative voice14:20 – Hidden Easter eggs, visual gags and blink-and-you-miss-them details15:15 – The film's unique soundscape: cartoon logic, meme culture and deliberate absurdity18:30 – Recognising an auteur style in machinima filmmaking19:14 – Deep dive into the film's references, props, set dressing and visual jokes23:30 – What the Easter eggs reveal about the creator's influences and generation27:55 – Michael's rapid output and growing body of work29:24 – Behind-the-scenes videos and custom set construction in Hammer Editor29:50 – Cinematography highlights and impressive in-engine camera work30:52 – A broader question: what future exists for talented Gary's Mod filmmakers?32:20 – Can skills developed in Gary's Mod transfer to animation, virtual production and film?37:15 – Damien on iClone, animation principles and platform-specific comedy38:35 – Does Gary's Mod itself become part of the joke?39:24 – Happy accidents, bugs and creative inspiration in machinima production44:00 – From software glitches to award-winning films45:04 – Physics engines, experimentation and unexpected outcomes46:44 – Final thoughts and audience feedback invitation47:11 – Closing remarksIf you've ever wondered what would happen if the least competent person on a spaceship cloned themselves five times to avoid doing their job, this episode is for you.Credits -Speakers: Phil Rice, Damien Valentine, Tracy HarwoodProducer/Editor: Phil RiceMusic: Phil Rice & SunoAI
Author Perrin Pring joins me to talk about her recently-released book, “Cash and Gravity” (Diversion Books), set in a world where everyone's trying to get off it as quickly as possible. In this book, Chevy Cole is a female Launch Tech Marine who lives in a world where mega corporations battle each other for Earthly metals in the pursuit of one day getting humans permanently off planet. During a battle, Chevy comes across a crash site containing a super soldier, an Ace, who has the world's first mobile fusion device. Chevy knows her corporation stole it from their rival. She is forced to partner with Dolon, a phantom, a man so analogue he can use cash and navigate by paper map, to get them to a safe house, thrusting them on a low-tech, high-stakes road trip across the American West. We're going to talk all about the worldbuilding and character creation that went into this as well as the many re-writes and how this changed the story. Perrin also talks a little shop and shares some advice for fellow debut writers. Like what you heard? Then check out www.psquaredbooks.com for more!
“We don't go to other planets because our planet is dying. Our planet dies, specifically because we perpetually want to go somewhere else.” Fresh off of the Initial Public Offering of Space X, the largest IPO in human history, it's worth revisiting the deeper implications of humanity's incessant drive... beyond. Today on the podcast, we look at humanity's increasing obsession with transcending planet Earth, in the context of the mythologies of human restlessness. How human beings, whether through certain religious visions of transcendence or through the increasing transhuman and supernatural focus of modern science, are ultimately looking to be anywhere but right here, with ourselves, in nature. This misplaced spiritual drive, in which we perpetually seek wholeness out there when wholeness ultimately lives right here, has been the subject of some of our most central stories about ourselves. Many in fact, have seen it as… a primordial curse.Support the show
Article 1 of the Outer Space Treaty, signed at the height of the Cold War in 1967, declares that space "shall be the province of all [hu]mankind." That remarkable consensus, with its benefits to science and communication, has held for more than half a century— until now. In this conversation, host Barry Stevens talks with Michael Byers— Canada Research Chair in Global Politics and International Law at UBC and co-author of Who Owns Outer Space? — about how, behind breathless media coverage of rockets landing by themselves and astronauts circling the moon, Donald Trump's reframing of space as a "warfighting domain" and his Golden Dome fantasy are eroding fifty years of restraint and triggering an arms race. With Pentagon-backed companies like Musk's SpaceX, the commons of space is being crowded, enclosed, monetized, and militarized. But as Byers insists, "it is not too late."
Funny how in a week where Steven Spielberg's Disclosure is opening, a new round of asking the U.S. government to release more from its studies on UAPs is also happening. But how does the average person feel about other forms of life in outer space, things we can't see, and has any photo or video really ever proved there's other life out there?See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

It's time for more Tubi Trash, baby! But this time, it's a classic of trash from WAY before the days of Tubi. That's right, we're talking about a film from famed director Ed Wood, known for making some of the worst films ever made, like Plan 9 From Outer Space. However, this one is a lot more fun and cohesive than what many expect from an Ed Wood movie.

A writer stumbles upon a tiny, motionless creature on a country road and, against all good advice, takes it home. The resulting memoir, Raising Hare, is a lovely meditation on nature and our relationship to it. And: have you ever invented a fake swear word to hide the real ones from little ears? One family's secret code was bandoozer—and it almost worked. Plus: what do these words have in common: elver, spat, smolt, and leveret? Also, candle bat, hobbyless, jan-ken-pon and Rochambeau, thick as burgoo, pobbies, urp, Rawhead and Bloody Bones, and that's it, Fort Pitt.

(June 06, 2026) Did Spencer Pratt really have a chance in L.A? Fraud allegations continue. Host of the ‘This Week in Space’ podcast Rod Pyle joins the show for ‘Cool Space News.’ Today, Rod talks about NASA’s moon base plans, and air leak at the International Space Station, Space X’s highly anticipated IPO, and NASA’s X-59 jet breaking sound barrier for the first time.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Nicotinic acid, in its various forms, is the subject of a fairly heated debate over its fantastic properties when it comes to anti-aging, Schizophrenia, alcoholism, and trauma. This vitamin falls under the shadow of Dr. Abram Hoffer, a hotly debated character in the annals of psychiatric history. Conspiracy theories about the pharmaceutical-psychiatric industrial complex abound regarding Dr. Hoffer's ostensibly debunked studies. What's not debated is that he was a quintessential healer and highly committed to the advancement of orthomolecular medicine.I've been taking it for years; it's one of the most affordable anti-aging agents, and I think it's one of the best supplements to include in your daily stack.5:00 Scientific Research5:33 Niacin vs Niacinamide vs Nicotinamide7:13 The Niacin Flush9:16 History11:12 Vs Schizophrenia13:13 Vs Alcoholism16:16 For Trauma Survivors18:32 The B Vitamin from Outer Space?19:12 Antiaging Mechanism21:13 Obesity vs Antiaging23:45 Cognition25:09 Got wifi?

They are bringing Val Kilmer back from the grave using AI to star in a crappy western, but Ed Wood brought Bela Lugosi back to life with some unused footage and an unconvincing double way back in the 50s! Without the use of computers even! The pending wave of AI movie star resurrections has Philena and Bob talking PLAN 9 FROM OUTER SPACE (1958) in this emergency mini-episode mostly because Bob had a rant about it and didn't want it to go to waste. Philena and Bob also discuss the diva-on-diva beef between VAMPIRA and ELVIRA! Why can't we all just get along? Plus lots of Criswell, Tor Johnson and flying saucers over Hollywood! CAN YOU PROVE IT DIDN'T HAPPEN??? We also discuss the other dead movie star resurrections, such as GAME OF DEATH (1978), THE CROW (1994) and GLADIATOR (2000). And Philena talks about her near appearance in INCREDIBLY STRANGE WRESTLING before she was even born!!! NEXT EPISODE: It's THE PHILENAPOCALYPSE: ENDGAME with THE PEOPLE'S JOKER (2024) and THE ADVENTURES OF SHARK BOY AND LAVA GIRL (2005). With special guest Ngaio Bealum, the Dank Diplomat.

Belinda Smith, Co-Host the Science Show discussed with Philip Clark on Nightlife why Earth collects rare radioactive isotopes, and how it is used by our planet.
This week Jamesy and Brando join the discussion about what happened to the 5 Italian divers inside the Death Cave of the Maldives. But, we don't want to continue speculating as much as we are trying to move this conversation along. This story is about more than just those 5 divers.
Cam Cooksey shows up with the question every kid secretly wants to ask. Is space real? And if it is, what even is it? Lt Gen (Ret.) Steven L. Kwast pulls out a scale-of-the-universe chart and walks Cam from the size of a sunflower out to Andromeda, then all the way down to quarks and quantum strings. The takeaway: you are connected to all of it, top to bottom. From there the conversation gets philosophical in the best way. Kwast lays out the decision-making framework he teaches future leaders. Start with an opinion, hold it with humility, then test it against the facts. His own starting opinion is that there is one God who made an infinite universe so we could love, explore, and grow. They tackle time travel (probably possible, probably unwise), the early 90s vertical takeoff rocket technology that will let you fly New York to Singapore in 37 minutes, and the deep state lie that the planet is too full. The closer, from Cam, is the line of the episode. Before you try to figure out outer space, focus on inner space first.
The guys get Taco Bell and shred their inner space before talking about Outer Space. The discussion turns to post humous timepiece goals and Chuck Norris. Can they settle on the perfect C.O.S.C. watch for 2026?

What happens when you sit down with a songwriter who's done everything from early fan-funded records, to major-label pop, to K-pop, to sync, to teaching songwriting at Berklee - and ask him what really matters in the studio today?Bleu McAuley and I go deep into the intersection of creativity, workflow, sync licensing, AI, and staying inspired at a time when music creation is changing fast. We start with his early days in Boston, learning four-tracks and alternate tunings, following Ducky Carlisle around Room 9 From Outer Space, and eventually being pushed by producer John Fields to take a real swing in Los Angeles. Bleu talks about shaping his voice as a solo artist, capturing inspiration quickly, and why most of the battle in the studio is simply removing friction.We dig into sync: how commercial music is its own ecosystem, why high-dollar sync often has nothing to do with the pop charts, and how entire micro-genres exist only inside advertising. Bleu breaks down the difference between library production music and custom sync, how briefs actually work, what trends supervisors follow, and how studying commercial catalogs (not Spotify playlists) changes your instincts. He explains why inspiration disappears in moments, why setups must be instant, why inspiration beats fidelity, and how he builds his studio workflow - from synth routing to outboard to leaving drums mic'd up permanently - so artists never lose the spark.In the second half, we talk about AI's impact on music production and why it's already reshaping expectations, budgets, and the perceived value of human-created work. Bleu predicts that production music will be “decimated,” that executives are already asking “can't you just AI that?”, and why musicians must prepare for a world where non-AI work has to be obviously human. We talk cassette 4-track records, reel-to-reel inspiration, talent that shines through limitations, and why unique sonic imperfections may soon become a calling card. Bleu also breaks down vocal technique, why control matters more than range, and why producers should avoid technical talk during emotional takes. Finally, we look at career longevity, creative spaces, studio setup philosophy, and what advice he'd give his younger self (hint: invest early, learn piano, and chase control over perfection).Get access to FREE mixing mini-course: https://MixMasterBundle.comTHANKS TO OUR SPONSORS!http://UltimateMixingMasterclass.comhttps://usa.sae.edu/ https://www.izotope.com Use code ROCK10 to get 10% off!https://www.native-instruments.com Use code ROCK10 to get 10% off!https://www.spectra1964.comhttps://gracedesign.com/https://pickrmusic.com https://RecordingStudioRockstars.com/Academyhttps://www.thetoyboxstudio.com/Listen to the podcast theme song “Skadoosh!” https://solo.to/lijshawmusicListen to this guest's discography on Apple Music:https://music.apple.com/us/playlist/bleu-production-highlights/pl.u-KVXB2eLtm8P9MyIf you love the podcast, then please leave a review: https://RSRockstars.com/ReviewCLICK HERE FOR COMPLETE SHOW NOTES AT: https://RSRockstars.com/558
