Karen A. Dahlman Joined Bob on an episode of Mysterious Matters to discuss the Ouija, and they also discussed many things including their own paranormal experiences. And what could be used as a Ouija Board.

 Dr. Scott Snair first became concerned about he adverse effects that smart devices have on Humanity as a College Professor, teaching a classroom full of adults who were more attuned to their chosen social media platforms, and messaging platforms, than the education he was providing and they were paying for. On this episode of MYSTERIOUS MATTERS Bob and Scott dwell deep into the not too distant future where Humans will choose to be connected 24/7. What is the Future of Humanity? Should we be concerned with where the Digital Revolution is Heading? Will Crypto like Bitcoin be the only accepted form of payment and transferred from brain to brain? Will non complying Humans be shunned by the smart chip enhanced humans? Can these smart chips be used to enslave workers to the demands of employers?

The Ghostbuster Gals joined Bob for another fun live show on Friday, June 10th. 

Preston Dennett and Dolly Safran joined MYSTERIOUS MATTERS to discuss Dolly’s personal experiences with Alien Visitors. Dolly Safran was first visited by extraterrestrial beings when she was merely a few months of age. Dolly claims to vividly remember every detail of her alien visitation experiences, and the conversations that she has held with these intelligent beings. At one time Dolly Safran was lured toward an alien craft through an old trick they use, a trick of holographic impressionism, and created in her mind the imagery of Mary Poppins. That captivated a young girl who loved the recently released movie of Disney’s Mary Poppins. Learn what a real UFO/UAP looks like, and how it operates, from a person who claims she has operated such as craft. Today you will hear her real-life experiences and hear from her about why she despises the term Alien Abduction.

Peter Ward joined Bob for a conversation on the successes and failures to date of various groups and methods that are aiming to extend our natural expiration dates. What lengths would you go to, to preserve your life for an additional forty years, a hundred or more?

Brian Greene, a Professor of theoretical physics, joins Mysterious Matters for an insightful conversation concerning the reality of our perceived reality. In addition, we tackle the topic of time travel from a scientific perspective. How does Professor Greene deal with some of his work being called Pseudoscience? We get his thoughts on those who make such a claim against theoretical physics.

Von Braschler sat down with Bob to discuss how Ghosts, Time Travel, and the ability of Manifesting Reality may (at first) appear to have absolutely nothing to do with the other, but as we dwell into the depths of conversation it becomes clearer how each are representative of a greater picture and are cohesive in nature. In this conversation Von also touches on what he calls The Holy Book of Dzyan (the oldest known manuscript on earth) which was purportedly written by beings known to us as Angels.  Also, in this episode we discuss the potential of having a trespasser break into your body if you were to soul travel outside of your physical body (leaving your flesh and blood house unsecure and open for invasion).

Duncan Lunan Joined Mysterious Matters to discuss the Green Children of Woolpit and many other topics, In the late 12th century, two very strange children came out of an ancient earthwork at the village of Woolpit in East Anglia. The incident is recorded, from different viewpoints, by two chroniclers both regarded as reliable. The children wore clothing of color and material never seen before, spoke a language nobody recognized, and were colored green all over. Later, when they had learned 'our manner of speaking and lost their green color, they gave an account of their homeland which definitely was no place on Earth.  

Our guests today are Dr Raymond Moody and Lisa Smartt. Ramond Moody pioneered modern research into life after death, Near-Death Experiences and Shared Death Experiences.

John Hogue returns to deconstruct some constructive criticism, and misunderstandings, of his involvement with the Rajneesh Oregon community. In this edition of Mysterious Matters, John Hogue takes an in-depth look back at his time in a community that some may call a cult; but John considers a spiritual movement, not unlike other religions such as Christianity. Plus we look into what happened with the History Channel’s improper handling of their “The Last Pope” special that was aired a few weeks ago, in which John was invited to partake as a prophetic expert. Then we also touch on the Three Secrets of Fátima and how past Popes have misled the public concerning the third secret. This and so much more is included on this special edition of Mysterious Matters

How would you react if, after taking nighttime cold medicine, you woke up the following morning and you had committed atrocious acts of violence?  Such was the case for 20 individuals over the past 100 years. These are the tales of Parasomnias and those who fall victim to subconscious theater...being acted out in reality.

On this edition of Mysterious Matters we welcomed on Preston Dennett for a candid conversation surrounding his work in the UFO and Paranormal fields. The audio isn't the greatest on behalf of both Bob and Preston due to several technical issues that popped up and were later resolved but not until after this interview happened. But it was a great show nonetheless!  

On Monday, August 21st residents of just 10 states —and the millions of travelers making the trip for the chance to see a rare phenomenon—will be able to witness the full totality of a solar eclipse.  The totality window spans a mere 70 miles wide.   Astronomer Bob Berman touches on the spectacular beauty of a total eclipse compared to a partial eclipse.  Then we turn our attention to his latest book: “Zapped“. Even during the darkest night sky, all around us we’re surrounded by light. Science writer Bob Berman joins us to talk about the many kinds of light we cannot see – how they are crucial for life and how they can kill us if we’re not careful.

Theoretical Physicist Amit Goswami believes that the science of Quantum Mechanics is not only the future of science, but it is also the key to understanding consciousness, life, death, God, psychology, and the overall meaning of life.   Today we sit down with Dr. Goswami to ask him questions regarding the world of quantum physics, and the theories that other theoretical physicists have been discussing over the years such as the multiverse theory, the holographic universe model, and more.   Some of the topics touched on include:   ► What is a Quantum representative of ► Is Time Travel possible using Quantum Leap like technology or another form of traveling through time ► Are Mystics more in touch with the mystifying world world of science than even mainstream scientists ► What are the motivations behind some scientific theories proposing the multiverse, parallel dimensions ► Are memories being passed down through DNA to our descendants ► Are our energetic forms being recycled through what is known as reincarnation ► What causes the Mandela effect  

When you need insight on the future weather you go to a meteorologist. When you need insight on potential future events that may change the world then you turn to a world renowned Nostradamus expert and forecaster of potential future events. That's what we've done for what is essentially the last episode of Mysterious Matters before transitioning to the Bob Bain Show; and John Hogue's last appearance on any show hosted by Bob Bain. We've been releasing these shows backwards from newest recording session to oldest. All three episodes from the month of May were recorded during the first week of May. Predictions for 2017 include what's going on with Donald Trump, North Korea, Russia, and Syria. Listen...only if you dare.

In family rooms across America, millions of children and teenagers are playing video games, such as Call of Duty, Halo, and Grand Theft Auto, roaming violent virtual worlds—with virtual guns in their hands. In what sometimes seems like an increasingly violent world, it’s only natural to worry about the effects of all this pixelated gore. But is that concern misplaced? Authors and psychologists Patrick M. Markey and Christopher J. Ferguson say it is.  

Bob commemorates the 2nd anniversary of his father’s death (May 12th, 2015 @ 3:00 PM) by having a candid conversation with Dr. Scott Kolbaba (a real, practicing physician). Their conversation focuses on stories of Bob’s own afterlife experiences with his Dad, as well as those shared by Dr. Scott Kolbaba as either experienced first hand or relayed to him by other practicing doctors. This first edition of the Bob Bain Show, sees Bob unprepared, and thrown off by the camera, but ready to tackle the conversation as any astute professional would. Join the conversation as Bob and Dr. Kolbaba tackle Afterlife Experiences, Life After Death, Signs from the Afterlife and more. Check YouTube for the actual video of this show.

Are there truly mysterious beasts of a cryptozoological nature creeping around in forests, waterways, or otherwise unexplored areas of the earth?  Ken Gerhard believes that is the case and why he has dedicated his life to investigating claims of humanoid creatures, gargantuan water creatures, and other mysterious beasts. Unlike other cryptozoologists, Ken Gerhard has worked in a zoo as a volunteer and feels the experience has given him a better understanding of animal behaviors. Topics touched on include: ►Does Ken believe he will ever find key evidence, or a golden ticket, to break open the world of cryptozoology for mainstream investigation ►Mysterious Beasts of the Amazon Jungle ►Is Bigfoot real, or merely a fabrication by people wanting to be the next P.T. Barnum ►Larger than life wasps, spiders and coconut crabs ►Insects with the ability to cloak themselves ►Reasons why lake monsters could be real, compared to Bigfoot Plus much more!  

 Has the Paranormal taken a strong lead to become part of American Culture? That’s what we find out today as Associate Professor of Sociology and Anthropology, Joseph Baker shares his insight on Paranormal America, and the Parallels between Religion and the Paranormal. Joseph and his co-authors/co-researchers participated in psychic readings, palm readings, they had their auras photographed, joined a Bigfoot hunt, followed a group of ghost hunters in an investigation of a haunted classroom, and even visited a support group for alien abductees. Topics touched on include: ►The Satanic Panic of the late 1980’s into the 1990’s ►How Paul Ingram was personally affected by this Moral Panic ►The moral panic of today ►What’s the mindset of a professor of sociology going into the investigative field of Paranormal Phenomenon ►Key Demographics and Statistics for various Paranormal Phenomena ►Are the majority of average Americans more inclined to believe or disbelieve in Paranormal activity ►Why don’t more Christians believe in Paranormal Activity, when the Christian bible is abundant with Paranormal experiences Plus much more!   Professor of Sociology and Anthropology, Joseph Baker joined us to discuss "Paranormal America". We focus on the Satanic Panic of the late 80's into the 90's, Ghost Encounters, UFO Sightings, Bigfoot Hunts and other curiosities in religion and culture.    

Are there secret messages encoded in ancient Christian artwork? Jerry Brown believes the paintings, stained glass and other works of art from early Christianity show a strong pattern of psychedelic usage among early Christians—including Jesus and his disciples.  On today’s episode we focus on a very controversial topic that will be sure to entice hateful comments, strong emotions and perhaps a process of “What If”.  

Astronomer and regular contributor to Astronomy Magazine, Bob Berman, sat down to discuss the strange happenings in our universe—as well as what astronomical events we should be looking for during 2017.   The most exciting of these events is The Total Solar Eclipse of August 21, 2017 and it cuts a path through the United States... but only certain locations will be within the path of totality.  That means you'll need to find where the path of totality will be for August 21, 2017 in order to view this rare event.   Then the focus turned to Bob Berman's book that he co-authored with Dr. Robert Lanza— Beyond Biocentrism.  They also touched on the Trappist-1 Planetary System, Bob Berman's Strange Universe 3 minute program on NPR, and Bob's upcoming book called Zapped.     Bob Berman ►Host of Strange Universe on NPR ►Author of Strange Universe ►Astronomy Magazine's "Strange Universe" columnist ►Discover Magazine's astronomy columnist ►Adjunct professor of astronomy at Marymount Manhattan College ►Director, Overlook Observatory Links Bob Berman's Strange Universe   Sponsor Mysterious Matters is Proudly sponsored by K&N Filters.

For forty years Ron Miscavige was a member of a religious cult known throughout the world as Scientology. He is also the father of Scientology’s CEO—David Miscavige. Scientology was created by Science-Fiction Author, L. Ron Hubbard.   In 2012 Ron Miscavige and his wife, Beth, forever left behind their lives, and their families—potentially forever—in search of truth, and real freedom outside of the grasp of the Ruthless and ideological deceit of David Miscavige, and Scientology. Topics touched on include:   ► When did Ron Miscavige get his family involved in the world of Scientology ► What was Scientology like under L. Ron Hubbard and was there a dramatic change once David Miscavige took over ► Is Scientology a socialist like community ► What Level of Scientology did Ron reach prior to leaving ► Does Scientology have deep and dark secrets on their major celebrities like Tom Cruise ► What Did Elvis Presley have to say about Scientology after meeting with them ► Why is Ron speaking out about Scientology and his own son ► What is known about Scientology’s belief in Xenu (the dictator of the "Galactic Confederacy" who 75 million years ago brought billions of his people to Earth (then known as "Teegeeack") in DC-8-like spacecraft, stacked them around volcanoes, and killed them with hydrogen bombs.) ► Plus much more! Levels of Scientology: OT I OT I comes after completing OT eligibility and OT preps (qv), this consists of walking about and counting people until one has a "win", and similar god-like procedures. EP (End Phenomena) is to extrovert a being, and bring about an awareness of himself in relation to others and the physical universe. OT II OT II consists of hundreds of boring "implants" written in Hubbard's hand like "to be or not to be", followed by "spotting the light" that accompanied the "implants." EP (End Phenomena; the final result of processing "therapy") is rehabilitation of intention and ability to project intention. OT III OT III, also called "The Wall of Fire". Deals with Incident 2, Xenu, the evil galactic overlord, and the H bombs on Hawaii 76 million years ago. Hubbard said that anyone who was exposed to this level casually would "freewheel" through it, become a chronic insomniac, then get sick and die. "Locating and auditing of body thetans on Incident I (first incident in MEST universe) and Incident II (incident which caused the degradation of these beings into body thetans and clusters as caused by Xenu approximately seventy-five million years ago). OT IV OT IV; the Operating Thetan drug rundown. New OT IV gets rid of the effects of taking drugs in past lifetimes for a few thousand dollars. You should really see this land in FLA; it is near Clearwater... "Mocking-up and unmocking implants from Clearing Course in order to prevent future implanting plus the handling and rehabilitation of past auditing. OT V OT V; get rid of those damn Body Thetans! EP (End Phenomena) is cause over life. Should be cause over your debt; you'll need it. New OT 5 starts what is call New Era Dianetics for Operating Thetans, NED for OTs or NOTS, reputed to be for removing BTs (Body Thetans; evil spirit infestations) that didn't respond on OT3. Physical universe familiarization, for only a few 'thou, was a part of old OT V. "A series of drills directed at the Pre-OT's handling of, and relationship to, MEST. Drills were to be done exterior. OT VI OT VI; what, more body thetans? New OT 6 teaches the sucker, I mean the Pre-OT, to do NOTs, New Era Dianetics for Operating Thetans, solo. OT VI is very expensive; it is easy to run up a $40,000 bill to get ready for the next step, OT VII. OT ability drills for a few 'thou more constituted old OT VI. OT VII OT VII; and still more? On OT VII one does NOTS, New Era Dianetics for Operating Thetans, solo. New OT VII is cheaper than New OT V, as only the six month C/S'ing and the final certainly check are paid for and the main work is left to the mark himself. Old OT VII was projection of intention and polish up for a few more 'thou...and you thought shouting was all you needed to project your intention. OT VIII OT VIII; Rumours are that the EP of this level is to cognite that Hubbard is god. After US $360,000, Hubbard had better be god, goddamn it, otherwise you've just been royally duped! Will you gain god-like abilities yourself? Plonk down the US $360,000 or so to get to this stratospheric level, and find out...or you could rent a clue for ten cents and buy a nice house and a couple cars with the money you'd save. OT VIII is the top of the current Grade Chart - OT IX won't be released until all the present Orgs are the size of the old Saint Hill Organization in East Grinstead, England, in the '60s - not until hell freezes over, in other words.

From ancient texts there comes a truly fascinating tale of Humans or Humanoid beings whose average lifespans exceeded five-hundred years. Over time this unique genetic material appears to have degraded itself outside of modern day human DNA. Is it possible that such genetic lineage was never part of the average human genome but instead belonged to an ancient and advanced race of intelligent beings known as the Anunnaki?  That is the discussion of today’s show with our guest, Nick Redfern.    Topics touched on include:   ► Were the Anunnaki responsible for the creation of not one but all the religions on the earth ► Did ancient humans actually live to nearly one-thousand years or was the legends of certain humans living great lengths of time due to a miscalculation of time itself ► Are Grey Aliens (The Greys) a bio-engineered drone type species of extraterrestrial being ► What is the connection between the Ouija board, Men in Black, and Black Eyed Children ► Are Black Eyed Children the result of genetically reengineering the Human DNA with that of the Grey Drones ► Plus more!

Superstar scientist Carl Sagan wrote a controversial paper that was funded by a NASA research grant. In what is now known as the Sagan Stanford papers—and originally known by the title of “Direct Contact Among Galactic Civilizations by Relativistic Interstellar Spaceflight” and published in 1962—Carl Sagan concludes that intervention from an ancient and advanced civilization may have sparked the current Human genome.  In other terms, Carl believed it was probable that an extraterrestrial civilization created human beings as we are today. Our guest is Donald Zygutis and Don lays claim that NASA has not only worked hard to suppressed Carl Sagan’s message of ancient aliens but that the organization is also heavily influenced by decision makers of the pentagon.   Topics touched on include:  ► Why is Carl Sagan considered as one of the most influential scientists of all time  (Sagan’s popularity was only matched or exceeded by another scientist by the name of Albert Einstein) ► Are TV shows like Ancient Aliens on the History channel doing more harm than good when it comes to hardcore research for finding evidence of Ancient Astronauts ► Was Carl Sagan assassinated by an organization with close ties to NASA and the secrecy of the truth behind Ancient Astronauts ► What did Carl Sagan believe the Biblical Jesus was. Was he Human or something more Alien ► Is the Christian God, and other Gods, of an extraterrestrial origin ► What did Carl Sagan believe might have actually killed the Dinosaurs ► What will our civilization—or humankind look like in a million years ► Plus more!

   Paul Gambino takes us on a fascinating—some might even say gut-wrenching—journey into the world of Macabre collections and those collectors who desire to possess them.  From shrunken heads, freshly decapitated heads, death masks, pickled  fetuses, and other squeamish collections… this edition of Mysterious Matters dwells into the darker side of collectibles and is not for the weak of stomach…or faint of heart.

Stanton Friedman and Kaltheen Marden (niece of Barney and Betty Hill) discusses what their driving interests were that brought them into the field of Ufology, and how they research each case to ensure legitimacy.   Some of the topics touched on include: ► Stats on how many UFO reports are of an unexplained origin      ►  The Phillip Klass  $1,000 check written to Stan and the subsequent threat of a lawsuit ► Are The Majestic 12 Documents Authentic ► Gary McKinnon’s claims of finding evidence of extraterrestrial life and advanced technologies ► The Seti Project ► Why would advanced alien civilizations be coming to the Earth These are much more await you in the first episode of 2017!

The nine waves of creation are frequencies and vibrations that originated from what is known as the big bang.  But to date nobody has been able to explain exactly what it was that triggered the Big Bang. On Mysterious Matters episode 90, and the last episode of 2016, we will touch on the Nine Waves of Creation: Quantum Physics, Holographic Evolution, and the Destiny of Humanity.  Joining us today is Carl Johan Calleman.   Dr. Carl Calleman’s theory is one where the big bang— supposed creator of our universe— was but one branch, of thousands of branches, of a cosmological tree of life. Topics touched on include: ► Does quantum physics offer a definitive answer that combines both the belief of creation, and of evolution? ► Are we speeding toward a new wave of evolution? ► Is it possible that memories from our ancestors could be passed down from generation to generation through either genetic material or another form of invisible natural, but unknown phenomenon? ► If life is a holographic illusion, then what is the purpose of life, and in the same token why create different religious belief systems focusing on various Gods when we are in all probability communicating the same universal being of consciousness? ► If nobody is around to hear a tree fall, does it still make a sound? ► Would it be possible for someone to hack into these waves of creation and thereby being able to possess an individual, or several individuals, to manipulate thoughts and actions? ► Are these nine waves of creation spoken of in the book of Revelation, in the Christian bible, through a symbolic form known as the seven trumpets? ►Does the nine waves of creation theory have room for explaining the existence of parallel universes And more!

Legendary Broadcaster, Ian Punnett joined Mysterious Matters to discuss his days working in Nashville, TN (WKDF) to his days at Coast to Coast AM. In this episode, you will get an intimate look into the life of Ian Punnett.   Bob and Ian discuss if Coast to Coast AM of today with George Noory is more corporate controlled than it was when Art Bell had been at the height of his success.   The discussion of Talk Radio continues as Bob mentions some of his mentors and how Teddy Bart of Nashville, TN had created a show like Coast to Coast AM back in 1987 (prior to Art Bell even contemplated a move away from politics).    Ian said, “Art Bell had been lucky, he was at the right place at the right time, with the right voice and content. Other people have done similar content driven shows but never reached Art’s success. It was like catching lighting in a bottle.”     Bob and Ian then turn the discussion to focus on Ian's new True Crime book called "A Black Night for the Bluegrass Belle". It focuses on the murder of his grandmother's first cousin, Verna Garr Taylor.   This is the classic tale of unrequited love gone horribly wrong and justice was almost never dished out. That's what happens when you're a rich and powerful person with friends in high places. As a white male in the 1930’s, former Brigadier General, and Lt Governor of Kentucky, Henry Denhardt felt as though he was untouchable. Prior to Vena Garr Taylor’s death there was another…and Denhardt was seen at the location of another woman’s death (Patricia Wilson). Her ghost has since been known to haunt the hotel in which her physical body was either thrown down an elevator shaft or she accidentally fell into it. This ghost is known as, The Blue Lady of Seelbach Hilton (Louisville, KY). Whether Denhardt was responsible for Patricia Wilson’s death… nobody will ever know. But Denhardt was a narcissistic sociopath. It was also brought up how it appears, President Elect Donald Trump shares a lot of the same narcissistic sociopath (or psychopath) characteristics with Henry Denhardt.

John Hogue, a world-renowned Nostradamus expert, joined Mysterious Matters during a two-day recording session. Day one focused on the 2016 Presidential election, subsequent protests, and predictions for Donald Trump’s Presidency.   Day two focused on John’s Predictions for 2017-2021, as well as his spiritual journey to becoming the man he is today. He takes us back through the years and shares soul deep information from his past. We are like a fly on the wall as John Hogue makes his way to India in search for something that had been missing in his life.    Who knew that John Hogue was a body guard, or even an exorcist?! He reveals all, exclusively on this edition of the Mysterious Matters, Paranormal and Culture Podcast.   Topic include: ► Which came first, John’s spiritual journey or his being a classically trained musician ► John Hogue’s research into global warming ► How a spiritual master chooses his/her apprentice/student of their spiritual guidance These and so much more awaits you on this second part, two hour long, edition of our discussion with John Hogue.

Now that Donald Trump has been elected the 45th President of the United States of America, what does he have in store for us? We were wondering the same and invited world renowned Nostradamus expert, John Hogue, to sit down for a discussion of the past election, the protests that have erupted, and a forecast for what may as well be called the Trump Prophecies. Part 1 focuses on the election, the protests, how Hillary Clinton lost and how she could have won (Bernie Sanders should have been her Vice-Presidential Candidate). Half of all American Citizens are now fearful of what 2017 may bring to the lifelong pursuit of Life, Liberty, and the American Way. The reason for their fears is the belief that President elect, Donald Trump is an elitist one-percenter with no loyalties to anyone but his own bottom line—and he has been given the key to our nation’s future. 2017 is the beginning of the journey toward uncharted territory, not only for the United States of America, but also for all nations whom have ties with it. The protests happening across the nation, they are not done because a Republican won the office of President. These protests are happening because of Donald Trump’s own message of hate, his own message which does not represent the United States of America or its dream of welcoming all legal immigrants to our land.

Country music in its purest form is about the expression of emotions and experiences. A country song is made with story elements related to love, broken hearts, drugs, hardships, suicidal thoughts, and sometimes all in one song.  Now that isn’t to say country songs can’t be energetic, fun, and filled with good times…but those types aren’t expressed all the time.  The purest elements of country music are, or have largely been about the saddest moments of a person’s life.  So, it isn’t much a stretch to believe that some of the legendary musicians of country music may not have ever moved on to the other side.   But instead their spiritual energy may still roam from town to town, or perhaps preferring to stick around places—or people—they once loved or knew while alive.  Our guest this on this edition of the podcast is Penn State researcher and journalist, Matt Swayne. Matt has written numerous books, and the Ghosts of Country Music is the second such “Ghosts of” book, his first focused on the Ghosts of Rock and Roll.  

Bob shares some of his personal experiences (and of experience of his brother) with an invisible presence.  Happy Halloween!

England is said to be an ancient land between realms and this could explain the many mystical characters in its illustrious history. Today we explore the myths, the urban legends, and an occasional ghost story of England’s history. John Matthews joined Mysterious Matters to discuss a Terrifying Victorian legend known as Spring-Heeled Jack. Spring-Heeled Jack was a tall, thin, bounding figure with bat-like wings (Many wonder if Bob Kane had known about this legendary figure prior to creating Batman), clawed hands, wheels of fire for eyes and breathed blue flames. He first leapt into public attention during the Victorian era of London England; springing over hedges and walls, from dark lanes and dark graveyards to frighten and sometimes physically attack people (curiously Spring-Heeled Jack mostly attacked women). Also, brought up in discussion: ► Is there any truth to England being a land between realms (our realm and another) ► What is the legend of Spring-Heeled Jack ► What was Spring-Heeled Jack; Man, Demon or something else ►Is there physical evidence of such a person or being existed ► With Spring-heeled jack sporting knife like claws, could there be a connection between spring heeled-jack and jack the ripper? ► Were beings like Spring-heeled Jack, and the Krampus something along the lines of a Tulpa ► Has there been other reports of spring-heeled jack type beings around the world ►Spring-Heeled Jack’s popularity in the Steampunk Community ►Robin of Sherwood Forrest ► King Arthur ► Herne the Hunter (gathers souls of the departed) Plus more!

What lies beyond this great façade of physicality (realm of molecule driven illusions) is the greatest mysterious matter of them all, and the real final frontier of exploration. Professor of History, Mark Mirabello of Shawnee State University joined the program to discuss the different world traditions and beliefs on Death, Dying, and What Lies Beyond.   In this edition of the Award Winning Mysterious Matters Podcast, Bob Bain and Professor Mark Mirabello have an enlightening and controversial discussion, focusing on the various beliefs of what happens to us after we leave the physical world of perceived reality.  ►What is Death What exactly does death represent? Through our conversation Professor Mirabello discusses multiple belief systems and traditions on Life and on Death.   How do you know for a fact that you are actually alive…and not dead? ►Dream Molecules Atoms, Elements, and Molecules are all around us but what if the reason we are seeing these elements is because we are dream beings.  What if all that we can see with the naked eye, and through advanced technologies are merely elements which make up our illusion of a physical state of being. ►Where is Heaven Where is Heaven? That is a question asked by so many through thousands of years. People and even scientists have gazed into the sky, into space searching for evidence that Heaven, that God does exist.   But what if we cannot find Heaven, or God, not because they do not exist but rather because we exist inside of them. Just as we have cells running through our bodies, we may also be like living cells within the body of God.  There are some traditions that believe Humans have molecular galaxies, planets and life living within each one of us. ►Bill and Hillary Clinton’s Voodoo Honeymoon Did you know that Bill Clinton and his new wife, Hillary Clinton went on a Honeymoon to Haiti (paid for by a family friend) and took part in a Voodoo Ceremony?  If this intrigues you then listen to the podcast to find out more! ►Belief that Halloween Allows for Thinning of the Veil Thinning of the Veil is a word that describes an event that many believes actually happens every year in October.  The Veil is a fabric of space, time and frequencies—all separating physicalites (I describe physicalites as those who deem themselves as being of a physical nature) and the energy based forms of conscious beings (otherwise known as Angels, Elementals, Demons, Ghosts, Spirits, and Haints).     Every year Professor Mirabello does a lecture on Halloween at Shawnee State University. He goes through the beliefs and traditions from its purest form as originated from the Celtic harvest, and roots tied to Paganism.  These and so much more await you on Episode #81 of Mysterious Matters, the top rated Paranormal Podcast and Alternative Topic Podcast.
