Reflecting on the dangers of technological monopolization, many tech entrepreneurs warn that without action, technology may become "yet another tool for the privileged few to stay privileged." With a career that includes experience at Google and Meta, Terrence Taylor, the visionary Founder of the African Institute of Future Technologies (AIFT), brings a unique perspective on how advanced technologies like AI and robotics can bridge the digital divide. Join us as we explore his journey from Sierra Leone to Johannesburg, his efforts to empower one billion Africans through education, and his vision for a future where technology serves as a force for equity and opportunity across the continent.

Phenomenology is a philosophical approach that explores the structures of experience and consciousness, focusing on how things appear to us through our subjective perception. This area of study offers a unique lens through which to view the UAP topic. What does it mean to consider humans as sensors? How do we make sense of our everyday lived experiences and the detailed information that technology provides? And more importantly, how does this apply to the mysterious and often controversial topic of UFOs?
Kimberly Engels, an Associate Professor of Philosophy at Molloy University, joins Chrissy Newton on this episode to discuss a fascinating and often overlooked aspect of how we perceive the world around us and humans as sensors.
As our society increasingly relies on technology to define and measure reality, we risk losing touch with the fundamental questions of human life and meaning. As we question the reliability of our senses and the ways in which science and culture intersect, are humans losing the ability to trust themselves and what they see?

We often hear the term "counterintelligence" in discussions about UAPs, but what exactly does it entail? What does counterintelligence consist of, and why does it encompass so many areas of focus, such as the FBI's Counterintelligence Program, homeland security, and more?
In an exclusive interview, Joshua Pierson, a seasoned US Army Chief Warrant Officer Four with 24 years of experience in intelligence, delves into the fundamentals of counterintelligence, the importance of structured analytic techniques in understanding UAPs, and the implications for national security.

Julia Mossbridge, PhD, is a renowned cognitive neuroscientist who has spent years unravelling the complexities of human perception and cognition, particularly in contexts considered taboo and fear. Julia discussed working with taboo and fear: What does cognitive neuroscience teach us? We explore the UAP subject through the lenses of gender and neurodiversity, examining how our gender and brain function influence our learning, perception, and communication of information.

Why do some people doubt others when they share experiences of something bad or traumatic happening to them?
Here are a few reasons: cognitive dissonance, bias and prejudice, fear of consequences, social conditioning, and the influence of authority figures.
Providing a safe space, listening, and believing someone when they say they have been hurt or experienced something science can’t explain can be transformative for the person trying to wrap their mind around a traumatic experience.
Alien abductions or exceptional experiences consist of people living with this every day—not being believed.
I sat down with John Priestland, Founder and Chairman of uNHIdden, along with Dr. Daniel Stubbings, Clinical Psychologist and part of the uNHIdden Medical Advisory Board, to dive deep into the experiencer phenomenon from a clinical perspective and how organizations like Unhidden can create pathways for government officials and society to understand better that the human experience is not one-dimensional but complex, through the eyes of the experiencer.

The new space race has sparked growing concerns about heightened space defence measures in recent months. The statement from White House spokesperson John Kirby came a day after a senior House Republican issued an ambiguous warning about a "significant national security threat." Kevin Lausten, President of Morpheus Space, joins me to discuss the modern-day space race, space defence, space mobility and Morpheus Space's latest achievement, the GO-2, which bears a striking resemblance to a Star Trek Borg Cube.
