    Dr Eric Davis, What the Government Knows About UAPs: Eric Davis on Disclosure, Crash Retrievals, NHI and Skinwalker Ranch Disclosure Without Giving Away the Technology Dr. Eric Davis argues that a basic layer of UAP disclosure should occur quickly: governments should acknowledge, in his view, that UAP exist, that non-human intelligence has interacted with humanity for a very long time, that craft have allegedly been recovered internationally, and that some form of contact may have occurred. At the same time, he draws a firm line between acknowledging those claims and releasing sensitive technical information. Davis says details about materials, propulsion, control systems, weapons, or other reverse-engineering findings could create serious national-security risks if foreign adversaries acquired them. He expects resistance not only from government counterintelligence officials but also from private aerospace contractors concerned about intellectual property and classified work. He also argues that part of the government’s reluctance is institutional pride: admitting that UAP can enter military or nuclear airspace with impunity would expose the limits of conventional defense systems. The discussion therefore separates social disclosure from technical declassification. Classified Briefings, Crash-Retrieval Claims, and Private Industry Davis says he has already briefed congressional and government personnel in classified settings, including Senate committee staff, the UAP Task Force environment, AARO, and Representative Anna Paulina Luna’s task force. He describes having received information from two separate industry sources connected, in his account, with crash-retrieval programs and says senior figures including Hal Puthoff, Bob Bigelow, and Colm Kelleher also received some of that information. Davis says the reverse-engineering effort had achieved only modest progress in understanding recovered materials and had not solved how the craft were manufactured or powered. He describes reports from Jim Lacatski and an aerospace executive that recovered craft lacked recognizable engines, fuel systems, switches, gauges, or conventional controls. Davis further says some engineers may be compartmentalized so tightly that they receive only pieces of material without being told the alleged origin. He repeatedly distinguishes what he personally saw from what was told to him by classified or industry sources. How UAP Might Move A major part of the interview explores theoretical physics rather than disclosure politics. Davis discusses traversable wormholes, warp drives, spacetime geometry, quantum entanglement, and the immense energy requirements associated with conventional general-relativistic propulsion ideas. He rejects the idea that humanity currently knows how to engineer a practical Einstein-style warp drive or wormhole and characterizes Ben Rich’s famous reported statement about taking E.T. home as overconfident extrapolation from theoretical physics. Davis speculates that a sufficiently advanced technology might manipulate the deeper quantum-entanglement structure from which spacetime may emerge, potentially avoiding some classical energy barriers. He also discusses the possibility that reported craft use telepathic or brain-linked control systems rather than visible mechanical controls. Davis is explicit that these propulsion explanations remain speculation because, according to him, the recovered systems have not been understood well enough to identify a demonstrated mechanism. Reported NHI Types and the Question of Motive Davis discusses four prominent categories of reported non-human beings: Grays, Nordics, and beings described as insect-like or reptile-like, while stressing that these are witness descriptions rather than proof that the beings literally belong to those biological categories. He says older UFO literature contains a broader range of reported forms and craft configurations. When Alan Steinfeld asks about alien abduction programs or genetic harvesting, Davis says plainly that he has no useful information and cannot confirm such a program. He is similarly cautious when asked why NHIs are here, saying that the technical crash-retrieval people he encountered were not necessarily read into questions of motive or contact. His own working hypothesis is the “zoo hypothesis”: the NHIs may be observing humanity as zookeepers observe animals, particularly because human nuclear weapons can devastate the planet. He points to reported UAP activity around nuclear facilities as evidence that the phenomenon appears interested in humanity’s most destructive technology, while admitting that the ultimate purpose remains unknown. Skinwalker Ranch and the Intelligent-Control-System Idea Davis recounts several experiences from the years he worked with NIDS and Bob Bigelow at Skinwalker Ranch. He describes a surveillance-camera cable that was found cleanly cut high on a pole without another camera recording any visible vandal, reports of orbs, agitated cattle, a dark-shadow experience, and a newborn calf that was found extensively mutilated within roughly 30 minutes. He says forensic tissue examination suggested sharp-instrument cuts, while a scenario analysis raised questions about whether a conventional human team could have performed the mutilation within the available time without being seen or heard. Davis connects the ranch experiences to Jacques Vallée’s concept of an “intelligent control system,” suggesting that the phenomenon appears to regulate the way it interacts with human observers and perhaps even the pace of disclosure. He speculates that both human institutions and the phenomenon itself may resist complete disclosure. That conclusion is presented as Davis’s hypothesis, not as an established scientific finding. Remote Viewing, Current Involvement, and the Wilson-Davis Memos The final section moves through remote viewing, alleged psychic interaction with UAP, Davis’s current professional situation, and the limits of what he can say publicly. He recounts a story involving Ingo Swann in which contractors allegedly anticipated a UAP event and tested whether Swann could recognize something non-human appearing human, and he says one legacy-industry source also described temporary memory loss allegedly induced by a UAP during a recovery event. Davis distinguishes “psychotronics” from looser uses of words such as “psionics” and “biologics,” while remaining open to claims by contemporary witnesses that psychic abilities may be used operationally around UAP. He says he now works in the defense industry and is no longer directly connected to crash-retrieval programs, although he serves in advisory roles and occasionally communicates with congressional UAP personnel. Davis describes how earlier classified briefings linked him with Jay Stratton and David Grusch and says Grusch used information from those briefings as part of a trail toward alleged legacy programs. When asked about the Wilson-Davis memos, Davis says only that he is legally permitted to state that the document is real, factual, and accurate, after which he declines further comment.

    New Realities with Alan Steinfeld Disclosure, Religion, and the Simulated Multiverse Alan Steinfeld hosts New Realities with Dr. J.J. Hurtak, Dr. Desiree Hurtak, and Rizwan Virk for a two-part conversation on extraterrestrial disclosure, religion, divine intelligence, interdimensional realities, consciousness, simulation theory, the simulated multiverse, AI, free will, soul memory, and humanity’s awakening into a larger cosmic identity. Guest Spotlight: Dr. J.J. Hurtak, Dr. Desiree Hurtak, and Rizwan Virk This episode of New Realities, broadcast on August 8, 2026, features host Alan Steinfeld with guests Dr. J.J. Hurtak, Dr. Desiree Hurtak, and Rizwan Virk. Dr. J.J. Hurtak is a theologian, linguist, researcher, and co-author connected with The Keys of Enoch; Dr. Desiree Hurtak, a spiritual researcher and co-presenter; and Rizwan Virk is the author of The Simulation Hypothesis and The Simulated Multiverse. Disclosure, Religion, and the Question of Other Beings Alan opens the program by asking how religious communities should respond to extraterrestrial disclosure and the possibility of other intelligences. He notes that some religious leaders may interpret extraterrestrial beings through familiar categories such as demons, while he argues that the phenomenon may require a wider lens. Dr. J.J. Hurtak responds from his background in theology, linguistics, ancient documents, and comparative religion, while Dr. Desiree Hurtak emphasizes that extraterrestrials may include positive, negative, and neutral beings, much like humanity itself. The opening establishes the episode’s central question: how can religion expand without collapsing into fear? Angels, Demons, ETs, and the Expanded Religious Framework The Hurtaks suggest that extraterrestrials should not automatically be confused with God, angels, or demons, but understood as part of a larger field of intelligences. Dr. Desiree says many ETs may exist on levels closer to humanity, while divine, angelic, or demonic realities may be beyond that range. Alan repeatedly argues that people are trying to put an unknown phenomenon into old boxes, while the Hurtaks present a broader cosmology of multiple heavens, divine realities, lower levels, higher light beings, ultra-terrestrials, and various forms of consciousness. Together, they frame disclosure not as the destruction of faith, but as an invitation to expand humanity’s idea of creation. Jesus, Light Bodies, Merkabah, and the House of Many Mansions The discussion then turns to whether figures such as Jesus should be understood in extraterrestrial terms. Dr. Desiree rejects the idea of Jesus “riding a flying saucer,” but describes Christ as coming from a higher light reality, entering this world, and returning to a light body. The Hurtaks connect this to their work with the Shroud of Turin, the concept of light-body transformation, Merkabah vehicles, Ezekiel’s vision, and the New Testament phrase “house of many mansions.” Their view is that some beings may use craft, while others may operate through vehicles of light, dimensional realities, or higher levels of divine intelligence. Consciousness, Genetics, Cosmic Family, and the Purpose of Contact Alan and the Hurtaks then explore consciousness as the core of the ET question. Dr. J.J. says consciousness is the capacity to deal with all levels of universal intelligence, while Dr. Desiree suggests some beings may need something from humanity, including soul capacity or genetic capacity. The conversation touches on cattle mutilation, cloning, Area 51 references, Dan Burisch, divine-source God code, DNA, panspermia, the Pleiades, Sirius, and humanity’s possible cosmic family. Alan frames the larger purpose of contact as awakening humanity to one human family and preparing us to meet other intelligences peacefully rather than through fear or worship. Humanity’s Graduation and the Call to Wake Up As the first part concludes, the Hurtaks and Alan emphasize that extraterrestrial disclosure may push humanity into a new anthropology, cosmology, and spiritual maturity. They discuss interdimensionality, remote viewing, dreams, the Book of Enoch, multiple heavens, and humanity’s capacity to activate a higher identity. The speakers suggest that extraterrestrials may appear now because of nuclear danger, environmental crisis, or a long-hidden disclosure process, but they stress that the deepest response must be spiritual: humility, discernment, heart awareness, cosmic citizenship, and the recognition that divinity lives within. Alan closes the first section by describing humanity as standing at a threshold of renaissance, expanded belief, and new realities. Rizwan Virk and the Simulation Hypothesis The second part brings in Rizwan Virk for a cross-cultural conversation about simulation theory, ancient spiritual traditions, and the simulated multiverse. Rizwan explains that his thinking began with a virtual-reality ping-pong experience that briefly convinced his body the game was real, leading him to ask how long it would take to build a digital world so convincing that people would forget there was a part of themselves outside it. He compares physical reality to a massively multiplayer video game in which the player exists outside the game and the character inside the game is an avatar. This allows him to connect modern simulation theory with ancient ideas such as Maya, Plato’s cave, Buddha’s dream, Shakespeare’s stage, and Yogananda’s film-projector metaphor. Multiverse, AI, Free Will, Forgetfulness, and the Game of Life Rizwan explains five assertions of simulation theory: that the world consists of information, that information is computed over time, that it is rendered for us, that reality may function like a kind of hoax, and that we agreed to participate in it. The discussion expands into the simulated multiverse, quantum branching, Philip K. Dick, the Mandela Effect, retrocausality, delayed-choice experiments, alternate selves, AI, prompt theory, Google Genie, and the possibility that humanity is birthing a new form of life through artificial intelligence. The group also discusses forgetfulness across spiritual traditions, ensoulment, the soul entering the avatar, remembering after death, and the possibility of remembering while still alive. Soul, Service, and the Gift of Life The closing section brings the simulation conversation back to spiritual purpose. The speakers discuss life review, the Book of Life, the scroll of deeds, Archangel Michael, free will, reincarnation or biogenesis, avatars, higher selves, overself awakening, and the idea that life’s challenges may function like quests. Rizwan says the point of the “game” is how we treat other people, while Dr. J.J. cautions that life is not merely a game but a gift filled with creativity, joy, compassion, and higher understanding. Alan concludes that realizing we are in a beautiful simulation can help people enjoy life more, serve others and themselves, learn from experience, and recognize both the game and the gift of being alive.

    New Realities, July 25, 2026

    New Realities with Alan Steinfeld Contact, Channeling, and the Human Story of Disclosure Alan Steinfeld speaks with Jess Herman about childhood contact memories, hybrid-program experiences, channeling the Vagrions, multidimensional identity, and how disclosure may expand humanity’s understanding of consciousness. Guest Spotlight: Jess Herman Jess Herman is a channel, contactee, and creator connected with the channeled collective she identifies as the Vagrions. In this conversation, she shares deeply personal accounts of childhood contact memories, psychic abilities, hybrid-program experiences, channeling, pranic healing, and her mission to help people move toward unity consciousness, radical self-acceptance, and trust in their own joy. Consciousness, Contact, and the Beginning of Jess’s Story In this episode of New Realities, host Alan Steinfeld introduces the program as an exploration of consciousness, UFO phenomena, contactees, and the possibility that contact itself may be part of human evolution. He welcomes Jess Herman, describing her as one of his favorite people and noting that she channels the Vagrions while also appearing to have contactee experiences. Jess begins by explaining that she does not remember a childhood before contact. Her parents framed her early experiences as vivid dreams, but she now sees them as something more structured, recurring, and unusual. Childhood Experiences, Psychic Training, and the Grays Jess describes childhood memories in Montreal where time seemed to slow, the street outside her window became strangely still, and she would later find herself in sterile, hospital-like environments with other children. She compares some of these memories to later depictions in shows such as Stranger Things, especially scenes involving children practicing psychic abilities. Jess says the experiences felt organized, like a program with structure and purpose, and recalls being around other children as well as beings she identifies as grays. She explains that memories of medical-style procedures were frightening, partly because of the coldness and lack of emotional interaction she felt from the beings involved. Hybrid Children, Pregnancy Loss, and Psychic Disclosure A major part of the conversation centers on Jess’s belief that she was involved in a hybrid program. She describes experiences beginning around age sixteen and later connects them to pregnancies, miscarriages, and what she believes were hybrid children or beings connected to her. Jess recounts one pregnancy that medically appeared to be developing before the fetus was no longer found, and another pregnancy involving twins in which one baby later disappeared. She says she was psychically informed that her body had been used as part of a program, that she had “signed up” for this work, and that the beings involved later allowed her to step away from the hybrid-program role. Channeling the Vagrions and the Mission of Self-Acceptance Jess explains that channeling came naturally to her, as though it was something she already knew how to do. She connects this ease with earlier training, psychic ability, and healing experiences, including her discovery of pranic healing. Her mission with the Vagrions is described as sharing messages of unity consciousness and radical self-acceptance. Jess says the Vagrions emphasize following joy, trusting the self, appreciating each person’s unique individuation, and dissolving insecurity around worthiness and love. In her view, if enough people stepped into their power and made more fulfilling choices, many of the world’s problems could shift within a generation. Multidimensional Identity, ET Contact, and the Nature of Reality Alan and Jess explore contact through a broader metaphysical lens, discussing starseeds, Arcturian and Pleiadian connections, mantis beings, nonverbal autistic children, telepathy, parallel dimensions, and the idea that people may exist simultaneously in more than one form or realm. Jess describes herself as having interactions that feel like going to a ship, waiting in a room, and meeting with beings in a corporate or boardroom-like setting. She also shares missing-time experiences, including one while driving near Lake Placid and another in Malta near ancient cart tracks. These stories become part of a larger discussion about how the self may exist both inside time and outside it, with the physical body understood as one expression of a much larger essence. Disclosure, Creation, and Learning to Stay Calm Around Contact The conversation eventually turns toward the historical moment of disclosure and the possibility that humanity is meeting the unknown in a new way. Jess and Alan discuss how alien contact, consciousness, time, physicality, creativity, and manifestation may all be part of the same unfolding story. Jess emphasizes that creation does not have to be a struggle, and that people are already creating reality through their perspective and assumptions. She also advises listeners who want more contact experiences to become emotionally steady around the subject, because fear or overexcitement may signal that a person is not yet ready for deeper interaction. Jess’s Work, Website, and Closing Connection Near the close, Jess points listeners to JPHerman.com, her YouTube material, and her podcast Some Kind of Mystic, where she interviews channels, healers, and spiritually focused guests. Alan and Jess reflect on their immediate sense of recognition and connection, framing it as part of the larger contactee and consciousness field they have been discussing. Alan thanks Jess for her insights, her dedication, and her contribution to human evolution, while the program closes with a poetic musical outro reflecting the episode’s themes of mystery, contact, trauma, consciousness, and the future of human understanding.

    New Realities, July 11, 2026

    New Realities with Alan Steinfeld Disclosure, Consciousness, and the Hidden Architecture of the UFO Secret Guest, Ross Coulthart, UAP Journalist Ross Coulthart and the Story Journalism Avoided In this episode of New Realities, host Alan Steinfeld welcomes investigative journalist Ross Coulthart for a wide-ranging conversation about UFOs, UAP disclosure, alleged classified programs, consciousness, and the cultural resistance surrounding the subject. Coulthart explains that he originally approached UFO reporting with skepticism, expecting to disprove the phenomenon as misidentified aerospace technology, but says conversations with senior officials led him to reverse his position and conclude that the public has been misled. David Grusch, Media Failure, and the Disclosure Inflection Point Alan frames Coulthart’s interview with David Grusch as a major turning point in UFO history, alongside Roswell and the 2017 New York Times reporting. Coulthart resists being personally elevated but strongly criticizes mainstream journalism for what he sees as neglect, ridicule, and failure to investigate. He argues that major outlets and the White House press corps have treated the subject with nervous laughter rather than seriousness, despite Grusch’s status and testimony. The discussion also includes criticism of media “hit pieces” and the possibility that intelligence-linked narratives are shaping public perception. Controlled Disclosure, the Legacy Program, and the National Security State A major part of the interview centers on what Coulthart calls the legacy program, which he describes as the hidden structure behind alleged recovered craft and reverse-engineering efforts. He suggests that the 2014–2015 period may have involved an attempt at controlled disclosure, including briefings connected to Tom DeLonge and To the Stars Academy. Coulthart argues that the national security state may have tried to manage disclosure while limiting how much the public learned about recovered technology, private aerospace involvement, and alleged reverse-engineering successes. Secrecy, Executive Power, and Alleged Crimes Coulthart and Alan discuss whether secrecy around the phenomenon is justified by national security or whether it has become self-protecting and corrosive. Coulthart raises concerns about alleged illegal activity, including claims of deaths, private aerospace power, JSOC involvement, underground facilities, and programs hidden from Congress or presidents. He favors a truth-and-reconciliation-style process for many involved in secrecy, while distinguishing that alleged murders or capital crimes should still be investigated. The conversation repeatedly returns to constitutional accountability, presidential authority, and whether Congress has the power or will to force disclosure. Agreements, Abductions, and the Mystery of the Phenomenon Itself The discussion moves beyond government secrecy into the larger question of what the phenomenon may be doing and why it is here. Coulthart points to David Grusch’s reference to “agreements” as especially significant and speculates, while acknowledging uncertainty, about possible arrangements between governments and non-human intelligences. Alan brings up claims around Eisenhower, Holloman Air Force Base, alien abductions, and John Mack’s research, while Coulthart says he has become more open to abduction testimony after hearing many firsthand accounts. Both speakers treat the phenomenon as broader than hardware alone. Consciousness, Love, Blue Beings, and a New Reality Model One of the episode’s most important turns is toward consciousness. Coulthart says people connected to alleged legacy programs often become less focused on alien hardware and more focused on consciousness. The conversation touches on quantum physics, nonlocal awareness, psychic phenomena, remote viewing, autistic nonverbal communication research, and the possibility that matter may arise from consciousness rather than consciousness emerging from matter. Coulthart also discusses repeated accounts of “blue beings” and “downloads,” saying he received numerous independent reports from people describing similar experiences. Jake Barber, Catastrophic Disclosure, and What Comes Next The interview closes by returning to whistleblowers, especially Jake Barber, whom Coulthart describes as a firsthand witness connected to alleged retrieval operations. Coulthart says Barber and others have risked much by coming forward and criticizes both mainstream media and parts of the UFO community for attacking witnesses rather than following the implications of their claims. He suggests catastrophic disclosure may come from insiders trying to get ahead of the story, while Alan continues pressing for hope, public action, and a consciousness shift. The episode ends with the sense that disclosure may not only reveal hidden technology, but also force a transformation in how humanity understands reality itself.

Connect with Us: Official Website: http://www.newrealities.com Facebook: / alan.steinfeld Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/alan_steinf... Welcome to NewRealities. Alan Steinfeld Welcomes Robert Schoch to New Realities In this episode of New Realities / Portal to Ascension Radio, host Alan Steinfeld welcomes geologist and author Robert Schoch for a wide-ranging conversation about ancient civilization, the Great Sphinx, John Anthony West, solar outbursts, and what the past may reveal about humanity’s future. Alan introduces Schoch as a geologist whose work helped bring geological analysis into controversial archaeological questions, especially through his redating of the Great Sphinx. Schoch explains that he teaches at Boston University, holds a PhD from Yale in geology and geophysics, and believes there was an earlier sophisticated cycle of civilization dating back to at least around 10,000 BC. John Anthony West and Symbolist Egypt Alan and Schoch spend significant time discussing the late John Anthony West, whom Schoch describes as both a close friend and research collaborator. Schoch explains that West was not a conventional academic Egyptologist, but had spent decades studying Egypt, astrology, symbolism, and the work of R. A. Schwaller de Lubicz. Together, they discuss the symbolist view of Egypt, which argues that the ancient Egyptians were not primitive animal worshipers, but encoded sophisticated spiritual, philosophical, and symbolic knowledge in their texts, monuments, and religious imagery. Schoch says West often criticized conventional academics for missing the deeper meaning behind Egyptian symbols. Meeting West and First Seeing the Sphinx Schoch recounts how he first met John Anthony West through a faculty member at Boston University who arranged for West to give a talk and then introduced him to Schoch. West had been looking for an open-minded geologist to evaluate whether the Sphinx showed signs of water weathering. Schoch says he was cautious at first and told West that photographs were not enough; he would need to inspect the site in Egypt. In 1990, West invited him to Egypt for a reconnaissance trip, and Schoch says that within seconds of seeing the Sphinx, he recognized weathering patterns that appeared to be caused by rainfall and runoff rather than Nile flooding. Water Weathering and the Recarved Head A major part of the interview centers on Schoch’s geological interpretation of the Sphinx. He argues that the body and enclosure show evidence of water weathering from precipitation, which would push the monument’s origins back to a much wetter period before the modern Sahara. He also says he immediately noticed that the Sphinx’s head was too small for its body and not weathered in the same way, leading him to conclude that the current head was likely recarved from an earlier, more weathered head. Schoch says he believes the original head may have been a lion or lioness, later reshaped into a dynastic human head when the Sphinx was reused or reappropriated. Egypt, Western Civilization, and Ancient Continuity Alan and Schoch also discuss Egypt’s influence on later civilizations. They note that Greek philosophers such as Pythagoras and Plato acknowledged learning from Egyptian traditions, and they connect Egyptian symbolism with later religious and cultural forms, including Judaism and Christianity. Schoch and Alan discuss parallels involving Isis, Horus, Osiris, the ark, the altar, the Virgin Mary, and the Christian mass, presenting these connections as part of a larger continuity between Egypt and the foundations of Western civilization. Schoch frames the ancient Egyptian tradition as one that preserved deep symbolic and sacred knowledge, not merely mythology or primitive belief. The End of the Last Ice Age and Solar Catastrophe The conversation then turns to Schoch’s theory that a major solar outburst around 9700 BC helped end the last Ice Age and devastated an earlier cycle of civilization. Schoch argues that the Sun became highly active, producing solar eruptions, coronal mass ejections, atmospheric disruption, radiation, vitrification, torrential rains, massive flooding, and rapid climate change. He distinguishes this from comet-impact theories, saying he believes the evidence better fits solar activity. In his view, the Sphinx’s water weathering, worldwide flood traditions, and the collapse of earlier civilizations may all connect to this solar-driven catastrophe. Atlantis, Zep Tepi, and Gobekli Tepe Schoch links his Sphinx work with broader questions about lost civilization. He discusses Zep Tepi, the Egyptian “first time,” and says that astronomical and geological evidence may point to a period around 10,500 BC. Alan asks about Atlantis, and Schoch explains that he treats Atlantis less as a single geographic puzzle and more as evidence, through Plato, of a sophisticated civilization or cultural memory that existed before the end of the last Ice Age. Near the close, they also discuss Göbekli Tepe in Turkey, which Schoch says provides independent evidence of sophisticated civilization before 9700 BC and helps answer critics who once asked for another early site comparable in significance to the Sphinx. Solar Risk, Technology, and Modern Vulnerability Alan asks whether a similar solar event could happen again, and Schoch says he believes another major solar outburst is not only possible but inevitable over geological time. Schoch warns that modern technological civilization is extremely vulnerable to coronal mass ejections, solar flares, and electromagnetic effects that could disrupt electrical grids, communication systems, electronics, satellites, cars, pipelines, and nuclear power facilities. He compares the potential danger to the Carrington Event of 1859, which damaged telegraph systems, and says today’s dependence on electronics makes modern society far more vulnerable than earlier cultures. Preparing Philosophically, Spiritually, and Practically Schoch says that although governments may be aware of solar risks, ordinary people face difficult practical questions because modern infrastructure is not easily protected. He suggests that going underground or shielding systems beneath rock could help preserve some technology, but acknowledges that society cannot simply move underground. He and Alan discuss the need for communities to think ahead, prepare mentally and spiritually, and consider both practical resilience and philosophical readiness. Schoch says ancient Egypt’s concept of sacred science may be important here because it joins science and spirituality rather than separating them. Closing with Ancient Knowledge and Future Questions Toward the end, Alan describes Schoch’s work as a bridge between alternative culture and academic research. Schoch says studying the past is not only interesting for its own sake, but may reveal knowledge, warnings, technologies, and spiritual insights left by earlier civilizations. He points again to the Great Pyramid, the Sphinx Temple, and Göbekli Tepe as evidence that ancient people may have possessed both spiritual and technological sophistication beyond what mainstream timelines usually allow. The episode closes with Alan directing listeners to New Realities, Robert Schoch’s website, and the Portal to Ascension Conference in Irvine, California, where Schoch plans to speak further about these themes.

    New Realities with Alan Steinfeld Experiencers, Disclosure, and the Consciousness Behind UFO Contact Guests, Meredith Spearman, Holly Ann Wood and Richard Monck Introducing the UAP Experiencer Discussion In this episode of New Realities, Alan Steinfeld presents a UAPedia-sponsored discussion from the latest UAP Con, focused on UFO contact, anomalous experiences, consciousness, and the experiencer community. The panel features Meredith Spearman, Holly Ann Wood, and Richard Monk, each bringing a personal and research-based perspective to the topic. Alan frames the conversation around the challenge of integrating extraordinary experiences into a culture that often rejects or ridicules them, especially when those experiences do not fit ordinary scientific, social, or psychological frameworks. Meredith Spearman on Silence, Initiation, and Witnessing Meredith Spearman shares her childhood contact experience, beginning around age eight, and describes how the encounter dissolved the boundary between observer and observed. She explains that the phenomenon seemed to meet her rather than simply appear before her, creating a mutual and deeply transformative experience. Meredith says the experience ran through family lines, along with a learned silence around it, and that she carried it privately for decades before writing and speaking publicly. She frames contact not as hallucination, but as a form of initiation that can dissolve old identity, force a revision of reality, expand relational awareness, and permanently change a person’s understanding of existence. Containers for Extraordinary Experience A major part of Meredith’s presentation focuses on the need for social and cultural “containers” to help people integrate experiences that disrupt ordinary reality. She compares modern experiencers to ancient initiates, shamans, mystics, and those who crossed thresholds in traditions such as Eleusis, where ritual, elders, preparation, and community helped turn crisis into transformation. Without such support, she argues, the same experience can leave a person isolated or broken. She also compares experiencer testimony to pain in medicine, saying that even when the cause cannot be proven externally, the lived experience still deserves recognition, compassion, and care. Holly Ann Wood on Contact, Consciousness, and Safe Spaces Holly Ann Wood, known as “That UAP Girl,” shares her own childhood encounter with three orange orbs near the ancient white horse carved into the chalk hills of Wiltshire. She explains that the experience did not feel random or distant, but present, aware, and interactive. Holly emphasizes that UAP encounters are not only scientific questions, but human ones, affecting people psychologically, emotionally, spiritually, and sometimes physically. She argues that experiencers need safe spaces where they can speak without stigma, process what happened, and realize they are not alone, which led her to create Project Nano as a place to discover, discuss, and disclose these experiences. Richard Monk on High Strangeness and Personal Transformation Richard Monk discusses three unusual experiences from his life that he once saw as separate, but later began to understand as connected through the lens of high strangeness. As a child in 1980, he saw a classic saucer-shaped craft near a cloud while a nearby girl did not see it, raising questions about perception, manifestation, and the relationship between witness and phenomenon. He also describes having an imaginary friend named Nicholas as a child and later learning that imaginary companions sometimes appear in the histories of people who report UAP encounters. Finally, he shares a near-death-like experience involving a profound, loving nothingness that later helped him explore consciousness, the pleroma, and the possibility that these events form part of a deeper personal curriculum. Disclosure, Empathy, and a New Reality The panel discussion turns to how experiencers can help society move toward disclosure. Alan, Meredith, Holly, and Richard discuss whether humanity is going through a collective initiation, whether personal disclosure may matter as much as official disclosure, and how the public can learn to acknowledge experiences without needing to fully explain them first. Meredith emphasizes that the empathy question can be answered before the ontological question: even if we cannot prove exactly what happened, we can still recognize that someone experienced something meaningful. The episode closes with UAPedia’s presentation of its mission as a trusted UAP knowledge hub, bringing together research, testimony, documents, claims, cases, and experiencer perspectives into a more coherent public resource.

    New Realities, April 4, 2026

    New Realities with Alan Steinfeld Dr. Diane Hennacy (the inspiration for the Telepathy Tapes) on the Wisdom of Autism & Psychic Mind This interview features neuropsychiatrist Dr. Diane Hennessy, who discusses a revolutionary perspective on autism as a state of heightened consciousness and telepathic potential. She explores the neurobiological "hardware" behind these gifts and proposes that autistic individuals may be leading an evolutionary leap for humanity. The Neurobiology of Heightened Awareness Dr. Hennessy explains that the "autistic" experience is rooted in the heightened activity of three principal brainstem nuclei: the Raphe nuclei (regulating sleep and dream states), the Locus Coeruleus (the fight-or-flight "button" that can expand time perception), and the Substantia Nigra (linking free will to physical movement). In autistic individuals, the neurotransmitters associated with these areas are significantly elevated, creating a permanent state that mirrors the expanded consciousness achieved by advanced meditators or "gurus." However, this internal "race car" intensity often clashes with a physical body that struggles to keep pace, leading to high anxiety and motor challenges. Communication Barriers and the Role of AI A major theme of the discussion is the "discrepancy" between the speed of an autistic mind and the slowness of physical communication. Dr. Hennessy describes current methods like spelling as "crawling when you could win a four-minute mile." She is exploring the use of Artificial Intelligence to assist in communication but warns that we must be careful not to let AI algorithms "make things up" or distort the original intent. The goal is to provide a "voice" to individuals who, like Stephen Hawking, possess immense intellectual gifts—such as synesthesia and perfect pitch—but lack the traditional hardware for self-expression. The "Jane Goodall" Research Philosophy Dr. Hennessy adopts a "lunar" or receptive research style, which she compares to Jane Goodall’s field observations. Rather than imposing "solar" analytical rules or forcing subjects to speak, she emphasizes "hanging out" and observing to enter their world. She posits that autistic individuals often function through "entrainment"—where their high-frequency brainwaves can actually upgrade the consciousness of those in their presence. This suggests that the best way to learn from them is not through interrogation, but through quiet, shared presence and "receiving transmissions" without words. The Sedona Ascension Retreat 2026 The interview highlights the upcoming 11th Anniversary Sedona Ascension Retreat (March 20-22, 2026). This event aims to create a "conducive environment" for entrainment, featuring Dr. Hennessy alongside other experts like Dalia Bergorn (mindsight) and Darryl Anka (Bashar). The retreat is designed to help participants activate their own "sixth sense" by being in the presence of gifted savants and learning to tune into higher frequencies of information. Dr. Diane Hennessy’s work shifts the narrative of autism from one of "disability" to one of "advanced capability." By understanding the neurobiological basis for their heightened states, she argues that humanity can learn to "tune" its own consciousness, ultimately replacing outdated scientific paradigms with a more integrated, high-frequency understanding of the human mind.

    New Realities with Alan Steinfeld Expert on #NDE and Life After Life Raymond Moody - Recreating the ancient Greek Oracles of the Dead Raymond A. Moody Jr.is an American philosopher, psychiatrist, physician and author, most widely known for his books about afterlife. He coined the term near-death experiences or NDE in 1975 with his best-selling book "Life After Life". His research explores personal accounts of subjective phenomena encountered in near-death experiences, particularly those of people who have apparently died but been resuscitated. He has widely published his views on what he terms near-death-experience psychology. Alan Steinfeld's new book is called Making Contact: The New Realities of Extraterrestial Existence: For a copy, go https://www.amazon.com/Making-Contact-Preparing-Realities-Extraterrestrial/dp/1250773946 The book contains original writings by: Linda Moulton Howe, Whitley Strieber Professor John E. Mack, Darryl Anka, Nick Pope, Grant Cameron, Drs. J.J. and Desiree Hurtak, Caroline Cory, Mary Rodwell, Henrietta Weekes. Alan Steinfeld, contributes and curates the collection with 30 years of experience with the subject. The Foreword by George Noory of Coast to Coast AM kicks off the volume with his veteran overview of the need to wake up to the “new realities of extraterrestrial existence. #AlanSteinfeld has been involved with Disclosure since his experiences as a young child. From that time, he realized that the only way for humanity to accept the fact that we are not alone – is to shift our worldview about what we think is possible. In this way, he feels we must transcend the old limitations of our mind and tap into what is beyond mainstream psychology, beyond our education, our religions, and our political ideologies. He feels that Disclosure is “an inside job.” It is only when we wake up to who we really are as galactic beings that the cosmos will come to greet us in our magnificence. #NewRealities From this platform, he has interviewed every top researcher in the UFO field; forming close alliances to such people as John Mack, Budd Hopkins, Richard Dolan, and Linda Moulton Howe. He has also been one the main emcees at Contact in the Desert.
