Former psychological counselor Peter Novak joins Art Bell to discuss the Binary Soul Doctrine, and Willie Nelson appears in the first hour on biodiesel and alternative fuels. Art also covers breaking news of a fireball streaking across the Oregon sky and sonic booms reported across the Midwest. Nelson explains how his tour buses run on 100% soybean-based diesel with no engine modifications required. Willie describes the environmental and economic benefits, including reduced dependence on foreign oil and support for American farmers, and invites truckers to try biodiesel at his truck stop south of Dallas.

In the second half, Novak presents his research into the Binary Soul Doctrine, an ancient belief found across dozens of cultures that humans possess two separate souls. He argues these correspond to what modern science identifies as the conscious and unconscious mind, or left and right brain. Novak explains how this theory accounts for near-death experiences, ghosts, past life regression, and reincarnation, suggesting the two halves divide at death.

Novak connects his theory to the interior passages of the Great Pyramid, interpreting the forking passageways as a map of what the ancient Egyptians believed happened after death. He also discusses how early Christianity originally included reincarnation before it was removed from doctrine in the fourth century to increase state control over the population.
