Walking the Shadowlands

Picture this: You are asleep in bed, it\'s 2am. Suddenly you are woken by the sound of persistent knocking on your front door, rubbing the sleep from your eyes you go to the door and open it. To your surprise you see two wee children standing on your doorstep. It\'s the middle of winter, but these kids are dressed in inadequate clothing for the weather. Looking at them you are overcome by an irrational and unexplainable terror.

Despite that, your concern for the kids overrides your fears and you ask them what they want and where are their parents? They ask if they can be let in so they can phone them. And then they look up at you and to your horror their eyes are completely black, no whites, no colour whatsoever. Your impulse is to slam the door shut, but inexplicably and against your will, you notice you are actually opening it further.

Black-eyed kids. What are they? Where do they come from? What do they want? Are they real or simply an urban legend? In this episode we\'ll hear theories and experiences from those who have witnessed these enigmatic and strange looking children. 

Losing someone we love is a very painful, very difficult and heartbreaking journey. There are so many questions we are left with.... The least of which is do they continue on?  If they do, can they let us know they are still around us? And are they aware of our pain at their loss? Do they know how much we love them? 

Deb., tells us all about experiences she had for the period of 18 months following the death of her then, young (27 year old) husband. How her place was \'haunted\' by him but it is not in the least scary. It\'s a love story, touching and very raw, of how love transcends death and how life continues after this existence. Even now 16 years afterwards, the pain is still raw for her.

Have you ever heard of the Australian Yowie? Cousin to the Sasquatch, or Bigfoot. Join my guest author and Yowie investigator Tony Healy as he discusses his experiences interviewing witnesses of the elusive creature.  This episode is longer than normal at around one and half hours. Tony is very interesting to listen to. See you there.

This is a brief statement from myself about how I feel about our current pandemic situation.

Death, the final frontier – to change a quote from an old TV series, if you’re a trekie, then you will know it. But is death the final frontier, the end of us? Or is it just the end of our physical body, the vehicle that we currently use? Like with the victims of Spontaneous Human Combustion in our last episode? What do you think?

In this episode I discuss ways our loved ones who have passed over may try to let us know that they are still around us. Still living, albeit in another reality, another form. And I, amongst others, share  personal experiences. See you then.

Imagine if you will, simply sitting down to have a cup of tea, or sitting with a friend preparing for a fishing trip, when with no external heat source your body simply bursts into flames, burning you from inside of your body to the outside? Would you even feel the flames? Would you be aware that this was happening to you? And even if you were, could you do anything about it?  Or imagine that you are a witness to such an episode? How would you react? What would you do? These are the situations that this episode confronts.

This episode is about the phenomena of Spontaneous Human Combustion, and shares witnessed and documented real-life accounts of people who have perished in this manner and a few rare, very lucky people who had this happen to them, but survived to share their experiences.

If you saw the Matrix movie starring Keanu Reeves, then you may recall a scene when Neo is with all the crew in the matrix, when they are awakening him, and he looks into the hall and in front of the stair case a black cat walks past, left to right. Immediately it does the same thing. When Neo comments on this the crew members recognized that it was a Glitch in the programming of the matrix, causing that scene to repeat itself. In the movie they could explain what happened. But, how do you deal with events like that happening in this reality, in your day to day life? 

This is the situation my guests in this episode found themselves in. Experiences that happened in their lives that they cannot rationalize or explain away. Experiences that have left many of them questioning the nature of this reality. Questioning what is reality? How would you respond to such an event?  

In this episode I take a close look at what have commonly become referred to as \"glitches in the matrix\" after that famous Matrix movie starring Keanu Reeves.  These are experiences that have left people scratching their heads and  wondering what just happened to them. With no logical explanation that  can be found for it.

I take a very brief excursion into the world of holograms, and the holographic universe theory.  Of quantum physics and the brightest brains in these areas in the  world, who suggest that this world is, in fact, a holographic reality. I  look at the Mandela Effect and how living in a holographic reality that has parallel dimensions  could possibly explain this. And I  have experiences that people like  you have had, that they simply cannot explain.

As Elon Musk says: “There is a ONE in a billion chance that we might NOT be living in a simulation.”

Imagine, you are a young woman, in your early 30\'s who has just faced  a series of three life threatening strokes. So bad, that you have had  to completely learn to talk again. Then imagine that one night when you  are at home healing and  struggling to recover your literal voice, that  you get this compulsive urge to go outside and look at the night skies.   You don\'t know why you have this urge, but it is utterly compelling and  so you go outside and look up at the night skies. . . . And that is the  beginning of almost nightly visitations of unexplained lights and  crafts moving in the night skies.

How would you feel if this happened to you? Would you feel like you  were going crazy? Like it was some kind of side effect from your  strokes? Or even worse, that you might be having another?

This is my guest Bonnie\'s on going experiences. Bonnie lives in  Texas, in the USA and kindly shares her experiences with us. She talks  about how they have changed her life and how she is able to capture  these craft in photos almost every single night.

Imagine that you are a military service person, on active duty and  during a routine naval exercise. That the role of your ship is to  protect the naval fleet from air attacks. Imagine then that during this  routine exercise some unidentified objects show themselves on your  radars, which is the highest quality and most recent tech available.  These object show themselves in groups of up to ten at a time. For days  this happens. The systems are taken down and recalibrated in case they  are showing errors, but returned showing the objects in sharper detail.  Finally the commander of the strike group sends jet fighters to  intercept these AAV or Anomalous Aerial Vehicles as the Navy calls  them.

The first group goes up and the commander of that flight crew has a  very close encounter with one of them, returns to base. A second flight  crew is sent up and this time they are able to capture this object which  was nicknamed the \'Tic-Tac\' object due to its shape. A video of part of  this incident was  ‘leaked’ to the world and has been the subject of  intense speculation  since.

In part one of two episodes I discuss these events and have a very  special guests in both episodes. My first guest in this episode, Gary Voorhis was  one of the crewmen on board the USS Princeton at the time of the  incidents and saw the actual UFOs through the ships \'Big Eyes\"  binoculars whilst on board the ship. He shares what his role was on the  ship and his experiences of these objects and what happened after
