- NDEs, DMT Entities, & the Daemon — Are We in a Time Loop? | Anthony Peake
Researcher Anthony Peake returns to explore whether consciousness is running a time-loop “Groundhog Day”—and why NDEs, DMT entities, Grays, egregores, and the Daemon/Eidolon may be facets of the same phenomenon. Plus: Servants of the Light, Crowley’s Lam, Priestley’s time plays, Ouspensky’s recurrence, and the practical purpose of the “perfect game” of life.

59 min - Deja Vu, NDEs & the Quantum Nature of Consciousness | Anthony Peake
Best-selling author and consciousness researcher Anthony Peake joins Sean to explore a provocative model of reality—where deja vu, near-death experiences (NDEs), migraine aura, and temporal lobe epilepsy reveal how mind and matter intertwine. Peake traces a throughline from glial/astroglial networks to the double-slit experiment, Wheeler’s delayed choice, quantum entanglement, and a holographic, information-based universe.

1 hr 13 min - Reactive Containment: Why Disclosure Isn’t What You Think | Steve Mera
“Disclosure” isn’t the plan—it’s reactive containment. Researcher Steve Mera joins me to lay out why the system feeds us drip-drip narratives while the real story—data, not belief—moves behind SCIF doors. We dig into Project Blue Book’s PR, Brookings-era conditioning, and why any true reveal must include the “forbidden” layers: paranormal, occult, and consciousness.

1 hr - The Matrix Is Real — And It’s About to Break | Steve Mera
Researcher Steve Mera returns to argue that “reality” is a programmable construct—and that cracks in the system are about to go public. We dig into claims of quantum imaging, non-human intelligence (NHI), waveform collapse, bloodline effects, and why AI could become an “open cockpit” for NHI. Steve also outlines why independent teams (outside legacy government programs) are preparing to reveal what they’re seeing beyond the veil.

1 hr 3 min - The Prometheus Conspiracy: UFOs, Time Travel, & Secret Wars | Dr. Jason Jorjani
Dr. Jason Jorjani returns to probe why “the phenomenon” resists disclosure—ranging from Prometheus-as-Lucifer archetypes to suppression of breakthrough tech, temporal manipulation, and why UAPs cluster around nuclear sites. We dig into Atlantis, Promethean rebellion, Setian reinterpretations, Tesla’s mystery airships, alleged Astoria/Waldorf networks, Iran’s nuclear saga, and the unsettling possibility that some “contact” is performative theater engineered to steer history itself.

1 hr - Are We Descendants of the Fallen? Dr. Jason Jorjani on Ancient Alien Bloodlines & UAPs
Researcher–philosopher Jason Jorjani joins us to explain why the phenomenon resists disclosure—and how it can manipulate perception, tech, and even our models of reality. We dig into an ultraterrestrial / control-system framework and the unsettling idea that some contact experiences may be staged to maintain social control. We also explore his two-source model (overlords vs. a trickster/cosmic AI), psionics, and why cultivating psionics could both liberate and destabilize society.

Author Adam Butler ( Butler’s DMT Field Guide ) shares a raw, unfiltered account of hitting rock bottom—then rebuilding his life through sobriety, shadow work, and carefully guided psychedelic experiences. We cover psilocybin vs. DMT, endogenous DMT, Carl Jung’s shadow, travel-as-reset (Redwoods, Humboldt/Eureka), and the moment a single insight—“be here now”—changed everything.

Through A Glass Darkly is where the paranormal meets military science fiction and fact. I interview national security professionals, historians, writers, and other content creators on everything within the current cultural zeitgeist and beyond...
My four key areas of interest are: 1) geopolitics; 2) writing; 3) the paranormal, particularly where it intersects with geopolitics and national security; and 4) my journey using this channel and other revenue streams to become financially independent within five years (i.e., by the end of 2026).
