In the first half, psychic medium Chip Coffee discussed life after death and what's waiting on the other side. Despite inheriting his family's psychic abilities, Coffey shared that he didn't begin to connect with the afterlife until adulthood. "I didn't come into my medium abilities until later in life... The first time it happened, it opened the floodgates," he stated. He believes that everyone has some degree of psychic ability, whether it's just occasional experiences or frequent communication with spirits.
Coffey recounted growing up in a haunted house where doors would mysteriously open and close, and a piano would play by itself. A parapsychology team even captured electronic voice phenomena (EVPs) of a little girl's spirit stating her name in a sing-song voice. "The things that happened in that house would definitely get your attention," he asserted.
Coffey described the afterlife as a "pain-free, loving, peaceful place" where most individuals continue their journey if they have led virtuous lives. However, he cautioned that those who have committed serious wrongs will face dire consequences: "A murderer, a serial killer, he's not rewarded on the other side."
He also expressed a strong belief in reincarnation, sharing a story about a young boy who had vivid memories of a past life. The child recalled details about a family he once lived with, and his memories were corroborated when he was taken to that family's house. "How does a child know these things at that age?" he pondered.
Coffey highlighted one specific place he avoids—Bobby Mackey's Music World in Kentucky. "Something tells me, 'Don't go there,'" he remarked, pointing to the negative energy allegedly associated with demonic entities. He stressed the need for spiritual preparation before entering certain spaces. "If your gut's telling you don't do it, you shouldn't do it," he stated.

In the second half, researcher Kathleen Ball, PhD, shared her extensive studies of the Knights Templar. Ball recounted a life-changing moment in 2009, when a representative from the Office of Tourism in France led her to a dungeon connected to the Templars. Her exploration of this space revealed significant symbols that sparked her interest in the legendary group. She soon learned from a nun that the Templars protected the holy bloodline of Mary Magdalene and Jesus.
Ball detailed the origins of the Knights Templar, asserting that the organization did more than simply defend pilgrims on their way to Jerusalem. She questioned the narrative: "... it doesn't really hold water... I think they were there specifically that they had an intention to excavate under the Temple Mount."
While exploring the Templars' supposed guardianship of the Shroud of Turin and the Ark of the Covenant, Ball spoke of the rumors surrounding these artifacts and their connection to Jesus. "I believe that he came into Europe with Mary Magdalene and he lived out his life," she asserted, implying the existence of a lineage that could extend to modern times.
Ball also emphasized Portugal's central role in Templar history. She asserted, "It was probably the most important, the powerhouse of the Templars," highlighting strategic military establishments and naval bases that supported their operations. She argued that the Templars embedded themselves within the fabric of European monarchies to promote values of spiritual and religious freedom, contrasting their beliefs with those of the Catholic Church.

Guest host Richard Syrett (Twitter) welcomed former CIA officer Kevin Shipp to discuss his experiences in counterterrorism and counterespionage, and his CIA investigation and whistleblowing. Shipp described his unexpected recruitment into the CIA, driven by a sense of patriotism during the Reagan administration. Initially doubtful that his past behaviors in college—including drug use, alcohol, and minor crimes—would allow him entry, he was surprised when he successfully advanced through the agency's rigorous background checks. His recruitment process included interviews, polygraph tests, and extensive vetting, ultimately leading to his employment within the CIA's Security Protective Service.Shipp transitioned from security operations to the CIA's Counterterrorism Center, engaging in high-stakes missions, particularly in the Middle East and South America. He recalled extensive combat and survival training, including high-speed counterterrorism driving, firearms qualifications, and counter-surveillance techniques. During one mission in the Philippines, his team was tasked with preventing assassinations by a violent terrorist group. Their success in stopping these attacks earned them a Meritorious Unit Citation. However, Shipp recounted how his experiences in the field led him away from his Christian faith, as he embraced the morally gray and often corrupt world of intelligence work. He described how many CIA operatives operated without moral constraints, engaging in drinking, deception, and other unethical behaviors, a reality he struggled with over time.The defining moment in Shipp's career came when he discovered a severe security vulnerability in the CIA's operations, which allowed foreign intelligence services and terrorists to easily identify undercover agents. After reporting this issue multiple times through official channels, he found that his concerns were being deliberately ignored and even erased from internal records. His persistence led to an external investigation by the State Department, which confirmed that the vulnerability was not accidental but intentionally maintained by the CIA, potentially as a tool for eliminating non-compliant operatives. Following this revelation, Shipp became a whistleblower, exposing corruption within the agency, which he said led to retaliation against him, including alleged poisoning of his family.In the second half of the program, researcher Jon Stewart talked about his investigation into the authenticity of a video showing an alleged interrogation of an alien. He asserted that the video depicts a real alien being questioned in an underground facility south of Area 51. According to Stewart, debunkers have wrongly dismissed the footage as a hoax, primarily due to the darkened visual presentation. He argued that the original footage was altered for theatrical effect and that the unedited version clearly shows more details, including military personnel and the alien's upper body, refuting claims that darkness was used to hide trickery.Stewart further claimed that the footage was part of a classified extraterrestrial program managed by the Department of Naval Intelligence and the Defense Intelligence Agency. He revealed that his investigation, spanning six years and involving multiple whistleblowers, uncovered that this interview took place on April 22, 1991, and was part of Project Aquarius, a secret government initiative for retaining and interrogating extraterrestrial beings. His main whistleblower allegedly provided access to a re-transcribed document detailing the incident. This document, according to Stewart, confirms the existence of a hidden facility near Papoose Lake where ETs were housed and studied. He asserted that this revelation also supports elements of Bob Lazar's claims about Area 51 and secret government programs.

Paranormal and private investigator, writer, and filmmaker Margie Kay, along with professional historic property researcher Violet Wisdom, explained how to research a house to determine whether it's haunted and who is doing the haunting.
Kay shared that her involvement in paranormal research began when she was a child, having experienced paranormal events such as seeing a disembodied head at 11. This sparked her interest, leading her to study the subject. Her work later expanded into helping law enforcement and private investigators solve missing persons and homicide cases using remote viewing. One significant case involved a young girl who had been kidnapped, where Kay used her skills to locate the girl.
In her practice, Kay uses remote viewing to assess potentially haunted locations, often finding that spirits are aware of her arrival and sometimes leave before she physically arrives. She discussed the importance of understanding the nature of the spirits present, whether human or non-human and emphasized the need for a psychic on a paranormal investigation team to communicate with spirits. She also shared personal experiences, such as seeing her deceased grandmother's spirit in her favorite spot. Kay revealed that most haunted houses are occupied by spirits of former residents, especially those attached to the home. However, she noted that negative or evil spirits can also cause distress and make situations more challenging, as seen in some of her cases.
Wisdom recounted how she and her best friend, both history enthusiasts, started a historic property research business 15 years ago. She emphasized that old houses retain a sense of energy from past inhabitants and described how architectural styles of the past were expressions of historical and cultural significance rather than just contemporary trends. She has researched a wide range of properties, including modern ones, noting that every piece of land holds a story, given the long history of human habitation in the United States.
Wisdom recounted her work on a Springfield house for the book, How to Research a Haunted House, where she uncovered intriguing connections between past residents and present experiences. She described the research methods she employs, including library archives, online resources, newspapers, and interviews with locals. Wisdom recalled fascinating cases, such as investigating the home where Ginger Rogers was born, and spoke about the importance of preserving personal histories. She attributed hauntings to residual energy and recounted experiences of paranormal activity in various buildings she has researched. While intrigued by hauntings, she expressed reluctance about living in a notoriously haunted house, especially one with negative energy.

Open Lines followed in the latter half of the program. Shawn from Washington expressed concerns about the recent crash between American Airlines Flight 5342 and an Army Black Hawk helicopter. He suggested it might have been deliberate. David from Oklahoma discussed the mark of the beast, referencing the New Testament books of John and Revelation. He elaborated on the spiritual significance of the number 666 and the connection between humans and stars. Ruth from Maryland shared a historical story about the "Bloody Oyster Wars" between Maryland and Virginia. She explained the conflict between Maryland and Virginia over the Potomac River and oyster overfishing and described the creation of the Maryland oyster navy and the incidents that led to the end of the wars.
