  • The Bennington Triangle

    To outsiders, the New England state of Vermont is probably most famous for its colorful autumn leaves, covered bridges and maple syrup. However, to the locals of the area, there is something else Vermont in known for… Something more strange and mysterious… Something known as the "Bennington Triangle." Since as far back as the 1800s, strange anomalies, unusual events and a string of disappearances - including 5 people in a span of 5 years, have left the locals bewildered. Why did such strange things take place in this area of Vermont that is located inside the parameters of the Bennington Triangle? Might this strangeness have anything to do with the ancient and mysterious "Cairns" that have been discovered at the top of Glastenbury mountain, which looks down on the Bennington Triangle? Prepare yourself for a fascinating journey back in time on this episode...

  • Archaeologists use AI to Discover 303 unknown Nazca Geoglyphs

    In this episode, I break down the exciting news of newly discovered geoglyphs in Peru that date back to 200 B.C., and that nearly double the number of known geoglyphs around the mysterious Nazca region. I then share some of my research regarding the infamous Nazca lines that were discovered in the 1930s. After Machu Picchu, the Nazca Lines consistently rank as one of the top ancient Peruvian sites that attract tens of thousands of tourists each year. Estimated to have been created as early as 500 B.C., the Nazca Lines cover hundreds of square miles are the most mysterious geoglyphs known to man. I think I came to the same conclusion that so many others have when I first flew over the Nazca lines years ago... it seems as if these anomalous works of art were tailor made to be viewed from thousands of feet up in the air. In this episode, I attempt to answer the questions: How were they made? Why were they made? Who made them?

  • Lost Technology of Ancient Egypt / Ben Van Kerkwyk

    Is there more to ancient Egypt's history than we've been told? How would the Dynastic Egyptians (3,000 - 30 B.C.) have precision crafted extremely hard granite structures, statues and vessels with their softer copper chisels and hammers as the mainstream narrative states? Did the Dynastic Egyptians actually possess technology that we do no know of, or did an earlier lost civilization engineer these megalithic marvels in ways that we can only dream of? In this exclusive interview, I sit down with researcher, explorer and film-maker Ben Kerkwyk from UnchartedX  to talk about lost technology of ancient Egypt. A highly sought after expert, who has recently been a featured guest on the Joe Rogan podcast amongst others, Ben pulls from his decades of research to shares his theories on this fascinating topic.

  • The Mud-Flood Cover-Up / Joe Telford

    Was there a worldwide catastrophe in the 18th or 19th century, during which massive amounts of mud and dirt engulfed elaborate buildings and cities, leading to a widespread cover-up by governments and historians? What was going on with the world-fairs of the 1800s where cities supposedly engineered massive buildings in record time only to demolish them soon afterwards? Is there more to the story regarding the hundreds of thousands of kids riding orphan trains of the old days? And why was there record numbers of adults during that time simultaneously locked up in insane asylums? in In this exclusive episode, I sit down with researcher, film-maker and explorer Joe Telford - otherwise known as jtfollowsjc on social media - to talk about these interesting topics of the mud flood theory, old world architecture, Tartaria and even portals... Pulling from his years of research, JT pulls back the veil of our mainstream history narrative to reveal, what he believes, are glimpses of a forbidden hidden history...

  • Japan's Utsuro-bune Event: Mysterious Floating Craft of 1803

    A mysterious craft pulled from the Japanese coastline in 1803, the recent discovery of an incredible ancient artifact at Gobekli Tepe, and an old 1903 report of a strange skeleton pulled from an Oregon grave… These are the topics we are going to dive into in this episode.

    THE MYSTERIOUS CRAFT

    In February of 1803, local fisherman working off the coast of Japan spotted a strange vessel aimlessly floating on the waves off in the distance. Intrigued by its small size & strange shape, the fisherman decided to tow it ashore. Once upon the beach, the local villagers marveled at the seemingly advanced engineering that the vessel possessed. But what they found inside surprised them even more...

    RECENT DISCOVERY

    Recent excavations at the UNESCO World Heritage Site of Gobekli Tepe have resulted in a unique discovery, a life-sized wild animal statue that is estimated to be 11,000 years old. Learn what animal it depicts...

    THE STRANGE SKELETON

    I found this 1903 article in the digital archives of the Library of Congress that speaks of two men in eastern Oregon who dug into a rocky grave and found a very strange skeleton... find out why it was so strange...
