Wendy's Coffeehouse Curious

So much synchronicity with this. The topic and the timing could not have been more perfectly aligned. And the EVP was a surprise.

Coming up in the next podcast — an interview with The Sasquatch Whisperer. I've got a few things to share here that are related to that show. One is the image I've posted for this segment, taken at Board Camp Crystal Mine in Mena, Ark.  

Along with that , headlines worth amplifying, books that deserve a second glance, and the big question: How do you know if you’re an experiencer?
 
We’ll explore a brilliant screen memory [that included providing a sketch for MUFON] and the interdimensional game of hide and seek, or put simply, how to remain invisible without even trying.

The secret? Look where no one else is looking… or where you’ve never looked before.

And here’s the bonus in this episode: an EVP. I didn’t hear it in the moment — I probably miss most of them — but this one? I caught. Not a word, but placement. Listen closely.

I posted this pic on the blog - 3 years ago without connecting any dots. Link. Something made me look to take the picture in that location, and something kept my interest - wondering what I was missing in the image. The penny finally dropped and ... the pattern is the key.

Among the many revelations Ingo left behind, one stands out for Elly: "Perhaps there was a space opera going on in which two different sets of extraterrestrial [read: an unseen non-human entity, higher intelligence, deity] troops were fighting some kind of war here on Earth - while both at the same time were somehow ensuring that HUMANS never realize that they, themselves, are psychic."

"Why not go all in?" Elly opts to, "Voyage myself, not by contacting ‘them’ directly, but by following my own perception and seeing what rises to meet it."

As the niece of remote viewer Ingo Swann, Elly grew up adjacent to the extraordinary. Taking her cue on advice from uncle Ingo, she set out on her own path, to discover what was true for her. With her phone camera and a map of locations where the veil between worlds seemed thinnest, she logged her results in spaces where the mirror of consensus reality showed its cracks.

Elly calls - not being alone on the planet - a conjunction: a coexistence of “us” and “them,” the human and the non-human, seen and unseen. Her book, Conjunction.World, is a call to awaken to the multidimensional nature of our reality. She shares her field notes, impressions, and photo-documented experiences available throughout her website.

What was the most intense experience during her travels? An encounter in liminal space she could never have imagined. We talk about that. 

What would Ingo say about contacting entities? Don't!

Paranormal Perspectives: Portraits of Alien Encounters Revisited, UFO researcher Nigel Watson

From robots and angels to Men in Black, Watson’s collection features firsthand accounts of encounters that defy explanation. Many experiencers remember forgotten childhood events years later - resurfacing through a dream, a trauma, or a mysterious trigger. As Earth spins faster and the pace of change accelerates, is our awareness expanding to view contact not only as physical, but also deeply personal, symbolic, and transformative?

Nigel Watson is a veteran UFO researcher and author whose work spans over four decades. He has extensively investigated both historical and contemporary UFO sightings, including the mysterious phantom airship waves over Britain in 1909 and 1913. His writing has appeared in Fortean Times, Wired, UFO Magazine, and more. Nigel lives in Plymouth, UK, and holds degrees in Psychology and Film & Literature.
 

“The things we call Unidentified Flying Objects are neither objects nor flying... the phenomenon has so far posed no apparent threat to national defense, and seems to be indifferent to the welfare of individual witnesses. But its impact in shaping man’s long-term creativity and unconscious impulses is probably enormous.” - Jacques Vallée, UFOs: The Psychic Solution

How mystical insight and sharp business acumen can create real‑world change.

Marcia Schafer: MBA, intuitive strategist, animal communicator, lifelong ET experiencer. That constellation of credentials and consciousness tends to stop people in their tracks... and then pull them in.

If you sense you’re here to catalyze something bigger, but conventional templates feel too narrow, this conversation is an invitation to claim a role in the planet’s unfolding evolution with clarity, courage, and integrative vision. 

Marcia outlines a practical alchemy: blending existential tools (expanded perception, intuitive patterning, interspecies empathy, cosmic perspective) with sharp business strategy (positioning, execution, value creation) to unlock fuller potential. The goal isn’t escapism, it’s to locate where you fit on the evolving chessboard of global change and move with grounded purpose.

Amazon Review of Spirconomics: "A must read if you are interested in understanding the bridge between spirituality and economics and how to get engaged in the new global dynamics described in Spirconomics! It is always delightful to read Marcia's disclosures as they are well phrased, well presented and well explained! A true gem! Well done!"

Ingo Swann’s niece, Elly Flippen, suggested I connect with Nick Cook—bestselling author of The Hunt for Zero Point, a deep dive into secret anti-gravity research that ultimately left him with more questions than answers. Ingo himself was a fan of the book. I started following Nick’s work, and what unfolded after Zero Point turned out to be even more compelling.

Nick went on to collaborate with remote viewing pioneer Ingo Swann and later helped publish Swann’s unfinished manuscripts. But a pivotal moment came when he witnessed his wife have a profound shared death experience. That event shifted his focus toward the mysteries of consciousness and what may lie beyond physical life.

He documented the experience in an essay for the Bigelow Institute for Consciousness Studies’ Afterlife Contest, where it received an Honorable Mention.

Nick is now writing a book-in-progress on Substack called The Light Beyond the Mountains—a fascinating journey into the curious, the unseen, and the unexplained. He is one of the rare investigators to bridge the worlds of classified aerospace research and the farthest edges of human consciousness.

Substack - The Light Beyond The Mountains [in progress]

To recap briefly, TLBTM begins with my 1992 encounter with a plasma-like object in the classified skies above Area 51 in Nevada - a mystery that’s reignited when the New York Times comes out with its seminal story in 2017 about the existence of a secret unit within the Pentagon - after years of official denial - dedicated to the study of UFOs.

What follows is a multi-layered, multi-decadal excavation that allows me to unearth a different facet of the mystery - all of them connected in some way - until the question that’s central to the initial narrative shifts from ‘What did I see?’ to ‘What does it mean?’

From the moment I did the first card reading, this deck became an immediate favorite - perfect for dealing with chaos, uncertainty or just an ordinary day. We mentioned the cards and the workbook briefly in our previous conversation but I wanted to give the cards [and Traci] a second mention.

An interesting highlight - Traci talks about how she got the idea that led to creation of the cards.

"Originally created to help those mourning a loved one, the cards are also helpful for processing job loss, the passing of a pet, or life’s general challenges."

Traci Bray is a Windbridge Certified psychic medium. The deck is designed to offer comfort, insight, and a sense of continued connection. To deepen the experience, she and co-author Stacy Macy created The Soul Lives On: A Journaling Workbook, a companion guide for recording impressions, reflections, and synchronicities during use.

I've had several decks of various kinds through the years but this deck is one of the best because it is easy to use for a reading of any kind and the workbook is a nice bonus - It can also be used as an oracle. The deck is available at tracibray.com, and the workbook can be purchased separately on Amazon.

Grey Aliens and Artificial Intelligence: The Battle between Natural and Synthetic Beings for the Human Soul, Nigel Kerner, Amazon

Nigel Kerner died in 2022. I interview two of Nigel's colleagues. Researcher Danielle Silverman worked with Nigel on multiple projects. Professor John Biggerstaff joined Nigel for many of his interviews. They offer support, insight, and perspective on Nigel's work.

---
A question from Nigels' son turned into a 30 year quest: “Dad, are UFOs real?”

Nigel began looking into the subject matter, anticipating a quick turnaround and a decisive (negative) reply. Instead, once he began researching the subject, he uncovered answers he could never have anticipated. He carved an amazing trail. This is Book 3 in his trilogy.

Summary edited: Shows how our consciousness has been hacked by the Greys to filter our perceptions to be in line with their agenda to steal our souls

Humanity’s biggest existential threat is our headlong rush to a technologically advanced future. Already we increasingly rely on smart devices to the point that they are becoming extensions of our bodies. We are at a turning point for our species in which our natural humanity is gradually being converted into an artificial format that will lead to the loss of our souls. And, as Nigel Kerner reveals in astonishing detail, the blueprints for this future already exist.

Rebecca Schaper is the author of The Light in His Soul: Lessons from My Brother’s Schizophrenia and the award-winning documentary A Sister’s Call, which chronicles her emotional journey to reconnect with her brother after decades apart.

We talk about that at the beginning of the interview. My father had a similar diagnosis.

In her latest book, Roses to Rainbow: My Dog Gus in the Afterlife, Rebecca shares the story of Gus, her beloved wirehaired Vizsla, whose spiritual presence continues to guide her beyond his passing. Through animal communicator Sunny Mann, Gus conveyed messages of joy from the afterlife, reassured Rebecca that his time on Earth was brief but purposeful, and promised to return in a future life.

Rebecca also recounts personal signs from Gus, including a heart-shaped rock that mysteriously appeared in a fire pit, reinforcing her belief in the ongoing bond between their souls.

Gus’s story is a testament to love, trust, and the interconnectedness of all beings. He reminds us that control is an illusion, life unfolds as it must, and supernatural connections are real. Above all, his message is one of enduring love - beyond time, space, and even death.

Amazon Review: 5.0 out of 5 stars Great read - “This book isn't just about loss. It's about love that never dies, about connection that transcends the physical, and about the powerful messages our pets leave behind for us — if we're open to receiving them."

UFO Symphonic: Journeys into Sound — reaches beyond traditional UFO narratives into a realm of synchronicity, music, and unseen intelligence. Mike shares how melodies, vibrations, and even fleeting sounds can act as bridges to the unknown.

Mike Fiorito - Author of For All We Know, Mescalito Riding His White Horse, and Falling from Trees - on his latest work, UFO Symphonic, a genre-defying exploration of music, synchronicity, and the mysterious forces that connect us.

Consider the mystery of a one-time flute song, a writing session about fairies that left a scar. Mike says something that happened when he was writing about fairies had a lasting impact. The book is a compilation of stories gathered from people who've had interesting experiences with music in some form paired with his personal insight along the way. The clues suggest something else at work beyond mere coincidence or synchronicity.

UFO Symphonic reaffirms life, reminding us that we are embedded within a miraculous reality - whether the rapture that holds us originates from a rock concert or from a UFO. - Joshua Cutchin, author of Ecology of Souls: A New Mythology of Death & the Paranormal

Website: https://mikefiorito.com/

Review of UFO Symphonic-Journeys into Sound by Kuntatt - UFO Malta. - "One of the highlights of this book is the way Fiorito tells stories. He doesn't just recount UFO encounters or talk about music's impact; he makes you feel it. There's a story about a UFO sighting at a bluegrass concert, and another about a conductor who feels like he's channelling the spirits of deceased musicians. These accounts aren't just interesting; they're moving. You get the sense that these experiences aren't just about lights in the sky or notes on a page: "they're about what it means to be human."

“I shall not commit the fashionable stupidity of regarding everything I cannot explain as a fraud." - address to the Society for Psychical Research in England, C.G. Jung

"I had never given reincarnation much thought, nor had I ever seen a psychic, but both of these elements came together one Halloween night." - Jeffrey Keene, Fire in the Soul, Amazon.

Jeff has not had a past life regression session. He credits meditation as the most effective process for retrieving his past life memories. However, the meditation routine he described - off mic - is a 6 hour session. And the potential downside of opening up that window into past lives, he says, "where do you stop?"

Documentation, pictures, memories, sensory imprints. Real life proof of reincarnation. Jeffrey Keene's life story is an example of a textbook case for past life incarnation.

Included in the book are things that have happened in the 20 years since his story was first documented, including experiencing telepathic abilities and helping others with their own explorations of past life memories.

Amazon Reader Review: "Years ago I read an earlier book by Jeff Keene called "Someone Else's Yesterday: The Confederate General and Connecticut Yankee: A past Life Revealed." Jeff has a rather unique sense of humor and writing style, so I sought out the book written by General John Brown Gordon called, "Reminiscences of the Civil War." After reading it, there wasn't a doubt in my mind ... I don't see how anyone could copy that style and sense of humor for the length of an entire book. I believe the same spirit is behind them both."

Also included in this book, correspondence with a Mom who needed help when her son [at age 2 1/2 or 3] began talking and describing things that eventually revealed his previous incarnation as a firefighter who died on 9/11.
