In this episode, two of Justin's close-range UFO encounters are shared. The first took place during a quiet evening on the front porch of his home, when he looked up to see a large, disc-shaped craft hovering low over the neighborhood. It moved slowly, completely silent, with a ring of white lights underneath and a strange, circuit-like texture across its surface. The second encounter happened a few years later. While riding as a passenger in his sister's car, Justin witnessed an enormous triangular craft drifting just above the treetops. Despite its massive size, it moved slowly and silently. Both sightings left a lasting impression on Justin. But first, before we hear from Justin, we have two voice submissions sent in from Ben in the UK and Bob in the US.More information on this episode on the podcast website:https://ufochroniclespodcast.com/ep-339-the-georgia-skies/Hidden Cults (Promo)It is a documentary-style podcast that digs deep into the world's most extreme, elusive, and explosive fringe groups.

Our guest on this week's episode is Jorge Gonzalez Henrichsen, co-CEO of The Nearshore Company. It's now been five years since the USMCA trade agreement was negotiated between the Mexico, Canada, and the United States, replacing NAFTA. In this current time of trade friction, including new tariffs on both Mexico and Canada, what's still working with USMCA and what's next for the trade alliance? Our guest offers some insights.There is an ongoing shortage of air traffic controllers in our nation. Recently a new study was delivered to Congress that showed the FAA hired only two-thirds of the air traffic controllers called for by its staffing models. By fiscal year 2024, nearly a third of air traffic control facilities had fallen 10% below model standards and about 22% had fallen 15% below. We discuss why there is a lack of air traffic controllers and what can be done to assure safety in the skies. Despite widespread adoption of digital tools and automation technologies, marine terminals around the world face persistent challenges with issues such as data connectivity, system integration, and real-time visibility. New research shows that there are lots of opportunities for real-time, automated data connectivity across terminals. It seems that many terminals have made big technology investments, and the next step is to ensure that their systems connect and all work together.Supply Chain Xchange  also offers a podcast series called Supply Chain in the Fast Lane.  It is co-produced with the Council of Supply Chain Management Professionals.

Welcome to The Times of Israel's Daily Briefing, your 20-minute audio update on what's happening in Israel, the Middle East and the Jewish world. Senior analyst Haviv Rettig Gur joins host Amanda Borschel-Dan for today's episode. The Israel-Iran war continues with fewer missile barrages from Iran even as Israel continues to use innovative ways of using its technology to destroy nuclear and military infrastructure in Iran. We begin the episode by speaking about how Israel has tweaked its aerial missile capabilities, specifically its standoff munitions, to turn them into far-flying, guided ballistic missiles. Rettig Gur speaks about the many, deep reasons why Russia did not want this Israel-Iran war to take place, including the notion that Israel has shown the lack of capabilities of Russian anti-aircraft tech as the IAF sails through Tehran airspace. We hear what else had Russian President Vladimir Putin concerned. German Chancellor Friedrich Merz expressed words of support yesterday for Israel’s war against Iran, saying, “This is the dirty work Israel is doing for all of us. We are also victims of this regime. This mullah regime has brought death and destruction to the world. As Merz appers to be urging the United States to enter the fray, we also hear about France's support for Israel's military operations in Iran.

From President Trump to Bernie Sanders, we'll talk about the current and potentially future reactions from the US.

Welcome to The Times of Israel's Daily Briefing, your 20-minute audio update on what's happening in Israel, the Middle East and the Jewish world. Diplomatic reporter Lazar Berman joins host Amanda Borschel-Dan for today's episode. Two Israeli soldiers were killed fighting in separate incidents in southern Gaza’s Khan Younis on Monday. Cpt. Tal Movshovitz, 28, from Re’ut, was killed by an explosive device planted in a building.Hours later, Staff Sgt. Naveh Leshem, 20, from Nokdim, was killed, and 10 other soldiers were wounded. Berman addresses the rumors of progress towards a negotiated deal to get the hostages out and a ceasefire in the Strip. What is happening in the war and what has changed? Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Monday did not rule out plans to target Iranian Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei. Instead, he suggested that it would be a surefire way to “end the conflict” with the Islamic Republic. Berman updates us on other statements from the prime minister -- in English and Hebrew. Downtown Tehran appears to be emptying out, with many shops closed, including in the city’s ancient Grand Bazaar, perhaps in light of US President Donald Trump’s impromptu evacuation call for the entire city of Tehran Monday night, citing what he said was the country’s rejection of a deal to curb nuclear weapons development, as the conflict between Israel and the Islamic Republic appeared poised for further escalation. Berman explains what happened in the G7 and where the war could be turning. French authorities erected black partition walls around Israeli company exhibits displaying offensive weapons systems at the Paris Air Show overnight Sunday, hours before the event opened at Le Bourget Airport. Berman weighs in, explaining the nuance of the situation -- and why this is hardly the first time Israel is singled out at this show.

Israel says eight people have been killed in a third night of Iranian bombardment of Israeli cities, bringing the total to 24. Nearly 300 people are being treated in hospital. Iran meanwhile, has accused Israel of targeting a hospital in western Iran, condemning it as a war crime. Iran's health ministry says at least 224 people have been killed since the Israeli attacks started on Friday. We ask: what is Israel trying to achieve? Also in the programme: Britain's foreign intelligence service is getting a new boss - the first woman to run the agency in its 116 year history; and we have a report from India, where families are still waiting for news after the Air India crash in Ahmedabad last week. (Photo: Smoke rises, after what Iran says was an Israeli attack on Sharan Oil depot in Tehran, Iran, June 16, 2025. Credit: Majid Asgaripour/WANA West Asia News Agency via Reuters)

From the unbelievable survival of a man in a fiery Air India plane crash to rising fears of political conquest on American soil, these segments weave personal anxiety with national security. The first explores a harrowing aviation tale that segues into a relatable, humorous yet serious discussion on fear of flying, survival strategies, and seat safety. The second dives deep into political commentary—alleging Democrat collusion with Iran and China, suggesting immigration and unrest are tools for territorial conquest, and spotlighting campus radicalization. It's a collision of personal fear and public alarm, tied together by the search for safety—whether in the air or in the nation.

For four days, Israel and Iran have engaged in direct, intense conflict. For Israel, destroying Iran's nuclear weapons and capability is a matter of survival. For the ruling Islamist regime in Iran, resisting Israeli power is also a matter of survival. The deeply unpopular theo-fascist rulers are clinging to power by fear and oppression. Israeli attacks are pulverizing the nation's ability to fight back. This could be a very quick and decisive conflict that resets the geopolitical global reality with lightning speed. Within days. We were are still are braced for weeks of war. But it's beginning to look like it may be much shorter. Listen to this fascinating discussion from earlier today with Lt. Col. (Res.)

The Bristol Brabazon was conceived at the height of the Second World War. With the tide of the conflict turning, the British Government set up a committee to examine the nation's future civil airliner needs post-war. The Brabazon I was the first aircraft specified and the first to fly. Its legacy is complicated, and author Alan J Porter joins us to argue the case for the Brab and the legacy it left following its scrapping.Buy Bristol Brabazon: The Ocean Liner of the Skies and Its Ongoing Legacy by Alan J.

Four-year-olds should not have any concept of the Air Quality Index. What world are we bequeathing them?

The state has really been through it weather-wise this week. In a bizarre sight on Tuesday, many Minnesotans witnessed rain pouring through smokey air. MPR Chief Meteorologist Paul Huttner joins MPR News host Nina Moini to explain these wacky weather events and what's to come.

We are finally here.Tomorrow evening, Venus moves out of her painfully long stay in Aries and into her home sign of Taurus. Then, on Monday, June 9th, Jupiter departs Gemini for the sign of his exaltation, Cancer.These transits mark a major departure from the difficult and often discouraging astrology that has characterized 2025 so far.While no single transit can magically resolve the real-world issues we're all navigating, the near simultaneous move of both benefics into signs where they are welcome, richly resourced, and deeply loved should translate into genuine support for our efforts, along with opportunities for comfort, ease, joy and pleasure. Once again, I feel very blessed to have Brandon Alter from The Spiritual Gayz on the show to help parse these cosmic dynamics. Their perspective is always enlivening and helpful to me personally, and I hope the show is enjoyable and supportive for each of you in your own way.As always, I can be found at www.skiesofgrace.com Connect with Brandon and learn more about their offerings at www.thespiritualgayz.comZodiac Class: GeminiI'll be teaching my class on Gemini this Sunday, June 8th, at 10 AM!These are workshop-style classes, and you'll walk away with a clear understanding of how the Zodiac sign Gemini and your natal Mercury placement impact a specific area of your life. All twelve signs are relevant to everyone, but if you have Gemini luminaries, a Gemini rising, or significant placements in Gemini, this class will be especially meaningful for you.Sunday is also the final day of Jupiter in Gemini—and he gets a visit from Mercury (Gemini's ruler) on his way out. It's an excellent day to dive into the sign!Register HereSkies and Currents: June Live SessionJune's live session will be held on Monday, June 23rd at 6:30 PM PST.Theresa and I will be discussing the Jupiter Cazimi and setting intentions for the renewal of Jupiter's cycle and his year-long transit through Cancer.All subscribers are welcome.

Imagine this – sea animals taking to the skies like they own the place! It'd be like a whole new world up there. Picture dolphins doing somersaults through the clouds and whales breaching above the waves. And don't even get me started on flying squids – talk about an aerial acrobatics show! But hey, it's not all fun and games – flying sharks might give you second thoughts about hitting the beach. Still, gotta admit, seeing our underwater buddies spread their wings would be pretty darn cool!

Inevitably, open eyes always seem to turn upward. Our faith and our refusal to bow are weapons forged in darkness. The American air industry is now in chaos. Combine airlines, aviation, national security, and the heavy infiltration of Chinese risk. Maintenance scares and hub battles. Where are the reasonable fares? The US Govt buys tickets in bulk? Huh? Looks like money laundering. Eliminate brokers for a start. Operating on a debt based closed structure. Amy Klobuchar is up to her neck in all of this. Firmware is very hard to inspect. Counterfeit avionics is a real threat. When pilots can't override the AI. Let's build a national aircraft security program. All domestic flights need more scrutiny. Chip technology has risks too. China (Taiwan) produces 90% of high level chips. Yes to mandatory source audits. Flight ready seals and instant response protocols. Software components are hackable. Compromised chips are everywhere. All airlines are leased. Even the F35 has Chinese components. We need a Federal National Airline Program. Why not lease at cost and back it with the Defense Dept? Lower costs, safer skies. Restore jobs plus national security. We should no longer out source the wings we fly on. Not when our families are on board.

From late 2024 to early 2025, numerous unidentified drones were reported over U.S. cities and military bases. While some of these "mystery craft" were later attributed to FAA-authorized research and other purposes, their presence highlighted the potential threat and vulnerability of defense and infrastructure facilities. Paul Lushenko, chief strategist for the U.S. military's Joint Counter Small Unmanned Aircraft Systems Office (JCO), joined host Tom Spahr to discuss these concerns. Lushenko also underscored the ongoing efforts to refine doctrine, training, and policy to effectively address the evolving challenge posed by unmanned aircraft systems.

Gligor Tashkovich served as the Minister of Foreign Investment for the Government of the Republic of Macedonia, one of just 23 officials elected by the citizens to run the country. His ministry uniquely intersected with all other ministries in matters related to foreign investment. Under his leadership, Macedonia became the first country globally to fully ratify a Stabilization and Association Agreement with the 28-member European Union, enabling companies to establish manufacturing operations within Macedonia's four special economic zones and export duty- and tax-free into the EU. Coupled with Macedonia's low wage rates and a flat 10% corporate and personal income tax, this created a compelling and competitive environment for businesses aiming to expand into Europe without the burden of higher wages.Gligor's expertise spans oil and gas pipeline geopolitics in the Caspian and Black Sea regions, early development of the Internet in Europe and North America (1984–1994), and international business development across more than 15 industries.In this episode we dive into a few of the many ways that he has changed the world as we now know it.

The air is worse today than it was on Monday, and it was bad then! An update on our air quality from WCCO TV's Chief Meteorologist Chris Shaffer on The WCCO Morning News.

During the Second World War, a promise by President Roosevelt to provide supplies to nationalist China led to the creation of an ill-fated air supply route from India, across a perilous stretch of the Himalayan foothills known as 'the hump'.

What if combat was less about hitting your opponent, and more about circling around them at very high speeds? Ace Combat 4 is one of the genre standards for the dog-fighting genre. There aren't that many games in there, so when people like one it generally stands out. But is there enough there to entertain the non-fan of the genre? And how did they manage to add an alternate reality plot to this?
