Art Bell’s Midnight in the Desert explores shadow people sightings, including his own ham shack encounter and callers like Debbie (linked to a hex) and Michelle (a hooded figure that spoke). Callers debate electromagnetic frequencies or DMT as explanations, while Frank claims to be from 1956, revealing NASA’s tested EM drive for Mars colonization by 2060. A blind caller critiques crop formation hoaxes via perspective analysis, rejected earlier but now seeking a platform. The episode blends paranormal tales with fringe science, questioning reality and government secrets, leaving listeners unsettled yet intrigued by the blurred line between perception and truth. [Automatically generated summary]
I bid you all good evening, good morning, good afternoon, whatever the case may be, wherever you are in the world, all of which is covered by this program, Midnight in the Desert.
My name is Art Bell, and we're going to have an interesting evening, I can tell already.
And the stream guys who get us out there to you, LV.net gets it from here to there.
And sales, of course, Peter Eberhardt.
He is our sales guy up in Alaska, way up north.
Okay.
A little announcement.
Many are asking for Brendan and Barbara.
You know the GIS.
Ghost Investigators Society.
20th.
Actually, we were going to have them on this week, but it now looks like it will be the 20th, but they are scheduled for them, so yay.
All right, a couple of things.
We are actively now, listen very carefully.
If you're a computer person, if you're an app developer, attention!
If you're knowledgeable in creating both iOS and Android apps, that's a lot of knowledge, that can access our subscriber database, that's what we're doing.
We need a new app.
So if you can design something that would access our subscriber database of logins to securely download and play the podcast on mobile devices, then we need you.
Or if you have expertise in adapting, these are not my words, or interfacing with existing membership software to publish a secure password protected RSS feed to current podcast players, that might work also.
Greek to me.
If you're interested, send your proposals to webmaster at artbell.com.
I hope somebody out there, and I'm certain there is somebody out there that can do it.
And by the way, we have announced on Facebook, I don't know if you received the announcement, that the price of the show is going to $7.99 beginning August 20th.
Now, not for those of you who have already subscribed as time travelers.
You, as long as you maintain your membership month to month, are locked in forevermore at $5.
In fact, don't panic.
You can still join and become a time traveler for $5, and that locks you in as long as you remain current.
Why are we going to $7.99?
Well, because we're miserable SOB money-grubbing, you know, whatever.
No, not really.
Because this is a U-supported radio program.
Meaning, you know, if we don't have advertisements, for example, I mean, we do have them right now.
We have minuscule six minutes an hour.
But even if they were to go away, this was designed to be a listener-supported program.
And the whole concept was to have this live program, the one we're doing right now, right?
Live, live and free.
That's good.
And it is free.
And the reason it's free is because of members like you.
So there you have it.
A couple of items in the news.
Obama's power plant climate plan shifts to the courts, of course.
He wants to clamp down on power plants, you know, emissions, a new federal plan that, if successful, would attempt to slow down global warming by dramatically shifting the way Americans get And use electricity.
Touting the plan at a White House ceremony, he described his unprecedented carbon dioxide limits as the biggest step ever taken on U.S. climate.
On that point, at least his opponents agreed.
They denounced it, of course, as an egregious federal overreach that would spend all kinds of money on things that we shouldn't spend it on and send power prices surging.
And, you know, if you look at Obamacare and what that did, you've got to listen to this, I guess.
Former President Jimmy Carter is okay, but he has undergone a liver operation to remove a little something in his liver that shouldn't be there.
They're saying he'll be fine.
It really was an elective kind of thing, but, you know, when a president has something like this, it's certainly worth noting.
This is from The Anomalous.
And a chupacabra, apparently, has hit a Russian village.
Now, this is interesting.
Dozens of chickens were slaughtered.
The carcasses and feathers strewn about after what definitely looks like a violent encounter.
And no blood.
This would be a Linda item.
No blood.
These attacks were fast and accurate, leaving behind only one live chicken who can tell no stories, unfortunately.
But they're thinking this looks very much like a chupacabra type of attack.
All right.
There is a prominent scientist now who I'm going to look for.
Dr. Lanza is his name.
And he thinks that consciousness, and I so agree to this, he thinks that consciousness may be the answer to everything.
Everything.
Wouldn't that be something?
So we will seek him out, get him on the air, and ask all about it.
All right, we're going to take a very quick break, I think.
And when we get back, we're going to attempt to get to Stephen Bassett.
Now, I'm not sure we're going to make it.
For some reason, he hadn't been there.
unidentified
But Stephen, if this music doesn't wake you up, nothing will, buddy.
A few years ago, there was a show called Coast to Coast with Art Bell.
And it was on the cover of Time magazine, and I was one of his favorite guests.
And when I'd be on that show, it really lit things up at certain agencies.
And one time I was on his show a few years back, towards the end of his career there, And this issue came up, and I said, Well, you know, I have a source high up in SETI that confirms to me that they, in fact, have received interplanetary signals, but in a kind of phased, not normal array, it was kind of a pulsed array, and that it was kept secret and covered up.
And the SETI people were furious.
Subsequently, Seth Shostak got on the show and just said, well, Dr. Ver knows what he's talking about.
He probably talked to some volunteer computer operator because we have all this network of volunteers.
What Hart Bell didn't know and what Seth Shostak didn't know, which I'm going to say now because it's enough water gone under the bridge, is that the guy who told me that was the founder of the SETI project and the Drake equation, Dr. Drake.
He told me that, that they had had that contact.
Moreover, a man who had been one of Carl Sagan's best friends, best men at his wedding, confirmed it.
And he had been present when the wow signal came in at Harvard.
About two or three months ago, I was sitting outside smoking on my porch, typing on Bellgab, as usual.
And I looked across myself, across the parking lot, and saw what looked like maybe a seven or eight-foot-tall shadow of a person just sort of like mailed into the ground.
The lower half of the body was not there.
And it looked like it dug down almost as if it had recognized me seeing it and was trying to hide.
And at first, in my mind, immediately I thought we had a bunch of break-ins and it's just somebody creeping around the parking lot.
Well, I'm 50 years old, and I seen one the first time when I was three years old, and again for the last time on a Tuesday morning, August 16th, 2011, in my room.
The thing had orange eyes.
It locked up my body.
It was 5.30 in the morning.
It locked up my body for five minutes.
Now, throughout my whole life, this thing gave me some kind of like special where I could see the future and see things.
And I'd been able to tell people something was going to happen.
Nearly 50,000 customers were without power across southern Ontario after an intense storm battered the province on Sunday, bringing heavy winds, rain, hail, and possible funnel clouds.
The outages were spread over an area from Lake Huron to Toronto.
The utility company Toronto Hydro is reporting multiple outages across the city, including one at Yorkdale Shopping Center.
Elsewhere, the wild weather blew down trees, canceled a music festival, and according to the Ontario Provincial Police, sent six people to the hospital when a tent collapsed near Proton Station, a community about 50 kilometers southeast of Owen Sound.
There were also reports of funnel clouds near Orangeville, north of Toronto, earlier in the day.
The Ontario Provincial Police said it has received many reports of downed trees and power lines, but no reports of serious damage.
Due to safety concerns, the Veld Music Festival that was being held at Downsview Park in Toronto was called off.
If you think this was a normal storm, take a look at the photos snapped over Toronto at darkmatternews.com.
The plane crash, which killed three members of Osama bin Laden's family in Hampshire in the United Kingdom, is said to have taken place in near-perfect conditions, raising suspicions about the incident.
Three members of the bin Laden family, as well as the pilot, died when their private jet crashed near the end of the runway.
But The Guardian has raised questions over the crash as the plane was equipped with high-tech gear to guide it in safely.
And Blackbush Airport has precision approach pathway indicators, adding that it's not the first time there has been a bin Laden family plane crash.
They say it is, in fact, the third time members of the bin Laden family have been killed in a plane crash.
Osama's father was killed when his Beechcraft 18 crashed in Saudi Arabia in 1967 while on his way home to marry his 23rd wife.
Salem bin Laden, the half-brother of Osama, died in 1988 when his aircraft drifted into high-voltage power lines in San Antonio, Texas.
A hitchhiking robot that captured the hearts and fans of worldwide meant its demise in the United States.
The Canadian researchers who created Hitchbot as a social experiment said that someone in Philadelphia damaged the robot beyond repair early Saturday, ending its first American tour after about two weeks.
The kid-sized robot set out to travel cross-country after successfully hitchhiking across Canada in 26 days last year in parts of Europe.
It's immobile on its own, relying on the kindness of strangers.
Those who picked it up often passed it to other travelers or left it where others might notice it.
It started in Marblehead, Massachusetts on July 17th, with its thumb raised skyward, a grin on its digital face and taped wrapped around its cylindrical head that read San Francisco or Bust.
unidentified
Maybe I can make a cameo appearance in a film when we get to California.
Only thing I could tell was, you know, this person was in the shadows and just, you know, like I could see a hat and a face and kind of like just shoulders, square shoulders long and black.
I couldn't discern any arms or legs.
But what I later determined and what I later found out, which is the really interesting part of the story, is that someone very close to me had put a hex on me.
And I wasn't a big believer in hexes, but I got it on pretty good word that this thing that followed me for so many years was a familiar.
I mean, when you see something that is pretty much not of this world, I mean, you can see through it and you can see other parts of the room, right?
It's just a figure.
I don't know how you conquer that fear because it's just abnormal.
unidentified
What I did was the first time I saw a thing, it scared me to death.
I mean, and I'm a fairly rational person, and I looked at this thing.
I didn't blink.
I didn't look away because I assume it was one of those things where my mind was mistaking shadows and making a shape that wasn't really there, like a coat rack looks like a guy standing there.
Anyway, it wasn't that.
And I never looked away from it.
And the thing was standing in a stairwell, and it just kind of tipped back.
And, you know, I got up.
I turned all the lights.
I got a gun.
I freaked out.
Next day I was telling somebody at work about it.
And I never heard hell of a shadow person in my entire life.
And I was describing it to him.
And he said, you know, that's a real thing.
You've got to look it up on the internet.
People have seen these things.
So I went home and looked it up.
I thought, well, this is horrible.
So the more research I did, I never found anybody that got hurt by one.
It was never, you know, nobody was sent to a hospital by a shadow person.
So I was resolved that the next time I saw one, I was going to do the same thing I did with sleep paralysis.
It didn't hurt me the first time I saw it.
I'm just going to assume it's not going to hurt me the second time I see it.
And what's weird is same height, same place, same kind of like standing in the shadows, but this time it was, you know, praying mantis legs on the wall.
I remember back when I started this whole damn topic in the first place, long ago, I went and looked it up on the internet, and all it had was terrifying pictures of these shadow people.
I didn't even think it was real when somebody first brought it up.
I mean, the shadow person is terrifying enough, and then see it move or have it move on you and then be first to your right, then behind you, and then to your left.
I just fled.
Once I saw it to the left, and it disappeared, and it did, I fled.
And well, I've already told you.
Got a gun, went all around, was prepared to try a shot if I saw it, and I didn't.
You know, that's probably how you end up shooting the wrong person or something.
I thought it was terrifying.
And if I had managed to somehow suddenly relax, do you honestly think this thing, had it turned into a gigantic eight-foot praying mantis, would have relaxed me?
No.
Not even close.
It would have finished me off for sure.
Once again, if you're outside North America, that means America wants Canada.
Anywhere in the rest of the world, it's really easy to get through.
Just call us on Skype at MITD55.
M-I-T-D55 outside the U.S. Love to hear from you.
A stacked full of calls here in the U.S. And speaking of calls, in Ottawa something or another, you're on air.
unidentified
Oh, hi, Hart.
It's Rob from Ottawa.
Hey, Roswell's to you.
Thank you.
I'm, I guess, one of your Casey Canadian time travelers.
The Shows of Truth, what you do, let me say, let me say, let me say, let me rush, let me show, let me read, and show me the witch, how the only other thing.
The Shows of Truth
I'm riding in your car.
You turn on the radio.
You're pulling me close.
I just said no.
I say I don't like it.
But you know I'm a liar.
Cause when we kiss who fire late at night, you're taking me home.
You say you wanna stay.
I say I wanna be alone.
Midnight in the desert is a wild trip across the day's divisor.
And B, he's much more interested in having communication with them than he is in doing the things he did years ago.
unidentified
Absolutely.
What I've gleaned from what he said is that he's more interested in less interest in disclosure because he doesn't think that's really a viable possibility.
Or not so much that, but so much as he thinks that's.
Just sitting here having a beer, thinking about the shadow people thing that you're talking about.
And it's kind of funny.
I've seen things before, too.
But everything runs on frequencies.
You know, if you have the right adjustment of electromagnetic energy, you can see the aurora.
Infrasound, that could have an effect on what you saw because some people, with the right lighting, if they have a certain type of infrasound, like the sound that you hear in a lion's roar, it's also the same sound made by a tornado.
You know one of the cool things about being on the program is that there is about a 30-second time differential between when we actually talk to you live and then when you finish your call, if you turn your radio on or your stream or whatever, you will hear your call.
You'll hear the last at least 30 seconds of your call.
So once again, that gentleman from Ireland, if you're outside the country, we'd love to have you.
You're probably, if it's in Europe, having a cup of coffee right now or tea.
And you're welcome to call us at MITD55 on Skype, M-I-T-D55.
Let us go to, well, no, we better not.
I guess I'd better get it out of the way.
We've got a break coming up, so let me do that.
We're in open lines, and we're talking about anything you want.
Now, I did bring up the subject of shadow people because I just couldn't keep it inside any longer.
I'm Mark Bell.
This is Midnight in the Desert.
unidentified
The End
The End If you could read my mind, love what a tale my thoughts could tell.
Just like an old-time movie, how to ghost from a wishing well in a castle dark or a fortress strong.
With pain upon my feet, you know that ghost is me.
And I will never be set free as long as I'm a ghost you can't see.
In that darkest time, between dusk and dawn, from the high desert, it's Art Bell's Midnight in the Desert.
I'm going to make this real quick because I do childcare and I just had to give you a call.
I had an incident back in 2006 where I woke up in the middle of the night, I think it was around 2 a.m., and there was a very tall, dark creature standing between myself and the television.
And I'll tell you another experience is when I was in my early 20s.
I was living in the city in Sydney with my boyfriend.
And I woke up one morning, went and had a shower, and I found a whole lot of squiggles, like somebody had been drawing with red texture or red pen on my stomach.
Now, I'm a black girl, but it was very, very bright.
And I wanted to mention the fact that I had that one time about 30 years ago where I was keeping score at the bowling alleys and the little voice said, buy a ticket, buy a ticket for the 50-50 split.
And I never spent money on it.
And I bought two tickets and everybody was like, well, who's the winner?
Who's the winner?
And I go, I am.
And they were like, well, how do you know?
And I go, well, the ticket's in my pocket.
I just know.
And I did win.
So that confirms your story with the car.
But as far as the ghost thing, there's a place in south of Buffalo, it's Jamestown, and it's called Lilydale.
I've gone there for seminars.
And when you're dealing with spiritualism and mediumship, they have prayers that you can open the door to communication, and they train you to become intuitive.
I mean, we all are.
But there's a prayer, and I don't know if you want me to give you the prayer over the air?
When you're doing 65 miles an hour, let's say, on the highway, somebody passes you doing about 80, and then they slow down in front of you to about 50.
I want to send them somewhere, but nowhere good.
unidentified
Well, you know what?
That's where it's kind of crazy.
You can call me nuts, but when I surround myself with the white lights, I'm on the throughway, and I go 60.
Speed limit's 55.
I'm not going crazy, but they're all passing me anyway, even if I am going five over.
But when I'm driving, it's uncanny how I'll look in the rear view, I'll look in the front, and I probably have about a four-car space in front and behind me.
That's good.
I don't know what it is, but it's crazy how they, I have a circle around me.
They're driving, there's 20 in front, there's 20 behind, but I've got a circle of freedom around me.
I'm not sure you might have heard of her name as Dr. Judy Wood.
And she is a PhD, and she's a brilliant woman.
She has a I don't think theory is quite the right word.
She's come to believe through her own examination, through her own expertise, that the World Trade Center was destroyed by a high energy weapon, a free energy weapon.
A woman in the UK who underwent a hysterectomy said she woke from surgery to find her doctor had removed two of her front teeth.
Claire Jones, 47 of Newcastle, says she cannot believe that this happened and she still has not been able to get a straight answer from the hospital.
Before the July 15th procedure, Jones had signed a declaration informing doctors at Royal Stroke University Hospital that she had one denture, which was then taken out.
Doctors allegedly could not account for her additional missing teeth, which has now led to an investigation.
A new jaw-dropping up close video displays the eruption of the Piton de la Fournes volcano, located on Reunion Island in the Indian Ocean near Madagascar.
New footage of the eruption, which prompted evacuation on Friday, shows the fiery rivers of lava running down the slopes.
The eruption lasted for three days before ending on Sunday, shortly after 11 a.m. local time.
This is a World Heritage Site and is one of the most active volcanoes in the world.
The volcanic activity hampered the work of Malaysian investigators examining suspected debris of the MH370 flight found by beachcomers on Reunion Island on Wednesday.
Malaysian Airlines flight MH370 went missing on March 8, 2014 with 239 people on board shortly after taking off from the Malaysian capital of Kuala Lumpur en route to Beijing.
Its disappearance prompted a massive international search lasting more than a year in the South Indian Ocean, the China Sea, and the Gulf of Thailand.
An ex-aerospace worker came forward and admitted that the chemtrail devices that are being installed on airplanes are actually being installed and in fact that he was one of the installers.
And he goes on to share details about what they installed.
He said they gutted the plane, mounted the tanks, installed the cables and lines and spraying devices.
He says he was a civilian worker supervised by the military.
When they were finished, they were told that this was a test conducted by the German Aeronautics and Space Administration, meaning that the plane with spraying devices goes ahead while a second plane with measuring devices flies behind and conducts measurements.
He said when they were finished with the installation, guys from the military came over and instructed them to wear full body protective clothing and breathing masks because they were now going to fill the tanks, and that the substances like aluminum sulfides or barium oxides would contain highly toxic nanoparticle-sized polymers.

Scientists have made the world's first white laser light.
Since being invented in 1960, lasers have been put to use in all sorts of applications, from computers and printers to fiber optics and surgery.
But for this entire period, there was one thing in particular that lasers simply could not do, produce white light.
Now a team of researchers has finally announced that they've managed just that, creating a device that can emit in any color across the visible spectrum, a requirement for white lasers.
Normally lasers can only produce a single wavelength, meaning that they are restricted to one particular color of light.
This color is dictated by the structure of the semiconductor, which is usually a solid chemical element or compound arranged into crystals, and is what produces the light when a voltage is applied to it.
The team of researchers from Arizona State University have been able to create a semiconductor that has three different sections, which, when stimulated, emit red, green, and blue, and thus combine to form white.
The milestone puts lasers closer to eventually becoming a mainstream light source, brighter and more energy efficient.
They could replace LEDs and even be used to make more accurate and vivid colors on computer and television screens.
In addition, technology is under development to create light-based wireless communication, known as Wi-Fi, which could potentially be more than 10 times faster than Wi-Fi.
Then you put, if you're in North America or Canada, M-I-T-D-51 in.
That's M-I-T-D51.
Call us.
And then if you're overseas, somewhere out of the country, this one I really want to emphasize, anywhere in the world, the rest of the world, pretty easy to get through because, well, it's a big world and a bad time elsewhere.
So Skype is a piece of cake.
It's MITD55.
If you're outside the U.S. and Canada, M-I-T-D-5-5.
Now, we're discussing all kinds of things tonight.
It's open lines.
Don't feel bound to discuss shadow people.
But if you do, I really would like the description of what you saw.
Okay, we have this brand new Art Bell Time Travelers Facebook page, and it's only been up like two or three days, and we've already got some really great people that have joined, and everybody loves you, and we're so glad you're back.
Okay, what is the actual, what is the actual, if you don't mind my asking, name of the Facebook page so people can, is it called Art Bell's Time Traveler or what?
unidentified
It's Art Bell Time Travelers.
They can put up there in the search in the Facebook, they can just put Time Travelers or Art Bell Time Travelers, and it'll go right to it.
And let me add, in addition to an apparent time traveler page, I'm learning through, you know, I get all these messages that come through the wormhole.
Stryker says TuneIn has its own chat room for any channel.
So there are plenty of us chatting about the show in there.
I had no idea.
These chat sites and different things pop up all over the place.
All right, on what I called my time traveler line, I'll give it a try.
I was in my backyard, and I was about nine years old, and it was after dinner.
I was pulling up my bike out of our cellar, out of the cellar stairs, and I turned back, and I looked behind me, and there was a man standing in my backyard about 30 feet.
There was no way he could have gotten in there.
And he looked kind of shocked or kind of confused.
Okay, a younger you, an older you, or it was the same age as I was, and it was a top four, but it was a spitting image.
Even Diana said, Curtis, there you are, laughing, and people looking around laughing.
And I said, what was I to think?
But then the next year, no, two years later, when I was a senior, I had to do the announcements and say the pledge being president.
I had made president, and so that was my duty.
Second hour, I'd go in there and do the announcements.
I forgot to go in and do the announcements on this one Tuesday or Wednesday, and there I'm sitting in geometry class, and my voice comes up on the air to do the pledge and do the announcements, and there I'm sitting and listening to myself on the announcements.
Now, I am also a little bit familiar with this phenomenon you were talking about before with the computer screens.
In fact, years ago, I developed a thing called Pattern Light, which is very similar to what they're now using for the backlighting, where they move the lighting around to follow the video.
I was working on an exhibit for the Science Museum of Virginia, and I was working late at night one night, and I was standing across the room looking at this display.
It was basically a simple LED large-sized display for a rocket countdown.
And I noticed all these speckles in the light.
I said, well, wait a minute, I'm getting coherence like from a laser out of this.
There's no coherence in that plate.
I started investigating and finally discovered the coherence was inside my own neural network inside my skull.
And I was able to refine that to the point where I had six styles that I could tune, and everybody see the same thing the same way because their neural networks are similarly working.
I would say, you know, the room was fairly dark, but it obscured only about half, I would say half, of what was behind it, what I could see behind it, to give you an idea.
That's why I want people to describe these things to me, because I know exactly, no, I don't know what I saw, but I can describe what I saw.
unidentified
All right, it's so good to have you back.
I'm a long-time listener, and I've got one comment I'd like to make about how you're pioneering a new way of delivery.
I mean, I know a lot of people have done online streaming, but the way you're doing it, I think, is kind of pioneering.
And the one drawback that I see in this plan is that people got to pay a lot for bandwidth.
And that's not your fault.
That's the way bandwidth costs in the United States, and it shouldn't.
For one thing, at this time of night, my friend, the majority of people are at home.
And so if they're using the Wi-Fi on their phone or their tablet, it's not costing them or their computer.
It's not costing them anything.
unidentified
Yeah, it depends on what kind of package they got for Internet service.
That may well be true.
But there's people on the road and truckers and the like that really can't partake.
There's a lot of rural people who simply do not have rural internet.
True.
There's a thing called White Spaces Radio Networks, which was approved in 2010 by the FCC and went operational in 2012.
And it's just sitting there follow, unused.
And if the listeners would Support this and band together and form co-ops with this new white spaces internet service, they could become their own service providers.
And they could do it for both the uplink and the downlink.
Well, first of all, what's happening now is it's about to be destroyed by a move in Congress, started by a bill introduced by Senator Mark Warner in Virginia, unfortunately, that wants to take the UHS TV spectrum, which is the largest spectrum grant ever given to the American public in 1952, and repackage it and remove all the white spaces so we can't have it.
And I would like your listeners to think seriously about how nice it would be to have about 15 or 16 TV channels worth of spectrum in your portable device.
Okay, well, you are aware that, I mean, most of the companies providing Internet now, along with phone service, are increasing drastically the amount of data that you can get.
And I'll tell you a little secret.
If you call them up and say, listen, you know, I'm kind of fed up.
I'm thinking of canceling.
They will send you over to a retention person who probably will increase by a gigabit or more how much they give you just to save you.
unidentified
I agree with all that, but if you're a road trucker, you may not be able to get a plan because there's no connectivity out in some of the rural areas along the roads.
And there's a lot of areas in the southwest that are just dead for except for satellites.
Now, if you can have a satellite downlink with these little spot beams coming from the F-C satellite and then have that be propagated out to the surrounding by a mesh network, then local communities could set up their own down lake and internet service provider amongst themselves, like a rural electrical co-op.
And then you could have a KU band down link that could feed your shows, but you don't have to have huge bandwidth that you're in.
Okay, so my second question is, I know that you haven't been actively pursuing it, but are you aware of any other terrestrial radio stations across the country that have expressed interest in picking up your show as an affiliate?
Yeah, well, I hear that he's crowdfunded his way to the star system to Merrick, where he'll probably attempt a landing on the planet at 11-11, I'm sure.
Regui.
unidentified
Anyway, you wouldn't suspect that tonight's scheduled guest was, I don't know, advised by the other show to abandon his appearance.
So I don't know that guy, but I did go to my trooper friend's house last night, and we mentioned the story to him.
And he had a kind of funny story to tell us that there was a candidate to be a trooper, and they have to take a polygraph examination before they can become troopers.
And they asked him, they said, you know, they ask a series of questions that they've already asked him.
And he answered in the affirmative when they said, have you ever been the subject of a police investigation?
And he was kind of sheepish and looked down a little bit.
And he said, yeah.
And they said, well, you haven't disclosed this before.
So what's the deal?
And he said, well, I used to dress up in Bigfoot costume and cross the highway.
And the police ended up investigating it.
He never got caught.
And he's a trooper to this day.
I don't know his name.
My friend didn't disclose that, but it was pretty funny at that point.
I guess your son could be that age, and you actually...
That's the first question.
unidentified
Well, as I say, he arranged it.
And the reason that I'm calling before I answer your question is because he's very interested in revealing some facts about the future that might cause a spin-off in the space-time continuum and provide other possibilities for alternative futures.
Take the most shocking, interesting one and tell me that one.
unidentified
Okay, then.
I will tell you about my father's visitation to me two months after he died.
This is what happened.
This little bit of backstory, I'll be as quickly as possible so I can get to the point.
I was dating a man for a couple of years, and he was an American citizen.
He was from Asia.
And he had decided to go back to his country to visit his mother.
And I said, that's fine, no problem.
Go see her.
She misses you.
So he leaves and never comes back.
And I'm thinking, okay, that's weird.
What's going on?
A year later, I find him on Facebook.
And it turns out that he was already a married man with kids, and that everything about him was a lie.
And I felt so deceived by this, and not only was I felt deceived for what he did to me, but I thought about my parents and how he just had deceived them as well.
And I wanted to tell my parents at the time, but unfortunately, my father was dying from brain cancer, and I figured he can't be burdened by this.
So I never said a word.
Two months later, I mean, excuse me, on November, my father had passed away.
And two months later, he came to me in a dream.
And in the dream, he was normal, cancer-free, very young, I would say in his 30s.
And he was furious.
He was so furious.
And he's gripping my boyfriend by the shoulder.
And he's looking him hard, like, you're not going anywhere.
And he's looking straight, my father's looking straight at me in the eye.
Yeah, it's a good point, and I really appreciate it.
Anything else?

Well, my shadow cat story.
I bought my house some years ago, and it's an older house, And I had my friend with me, and we were taking out a temporary wall, and we pulled back the ugly paneling.
And we both saw this, what we thought was a cat, jump out from behind the paneling and the wall and run out the front.
But when we both acknowledged it to each other, we realized, first of all, it had no solid form.
It was black, it was kind of fuzzy, and it dissipated once it got out of the room.
While that may sound strange, flying snakes actually exist.
The mystery of how flying snakes stay aloft may have been solved by scientists, though.
These unusual reptiles, which are found in rainforests in Southeast Asia, are able to fling themselves from trees and elegantly glide through the air.
Scientists say that the serpents radically alter their body shape to generate the aerodynamic forces needed to perform this feat.
Professor Jake Sosha from Virginia Tech, who carried out the study, said the snake is definitely not an intuitive glider.
When you look at it, you'd say that thing should not be able to glide.
And in its normal body configuration, that's probably true.
But when it enters the air, when it takes off and jumps and leaps from a branch, it massively transforms its body.
As it jumps, it flattens out from just behind the head to where the tail starts.
What it is doing is taking its ribs and rotating them forwards towards the head and upwards towards the spine.
The snake's body changes from having a very round cross-section to one that is more squashed and concave at the bottom.
He said the snake was producing an aerodynamic force that was comparable to that created by a scaled-down plane wing.
As it's doing this, it's moving its head from side to side.
It is passing waves down the body, and it looks like the animal is swimming in the air.
The team says the snake could help to inspire robotic development, potentially leading to machines that can crawl, climb, and glide.

A new jaw-dropping up close video displays the eruption of the Piton de la Fournesse volcano, located on Reunion Island in the Indian Ocean near Madagascar.
New footage of the eruption, which prompted evacuation on Friday, shows the fiery rivers of lava running down the slopes.
The eruption lasted for three days before ending on Sunday, shortly after 11 a.m. local time, this is a World Heritage Site and is one of the most active volcanoes in the world.
The volcanic activity hampered the work of Malaysian investigators examining suspected debris of the MH370 flight found by beachcomers on Reunion Island on Wednesday.
Malaysian Airlines flight MH370 went missing on March 8, 2014, with 239 people on board shortly after taking off from the Malaysian capital of Kuala Lumpur en route to Beijing.
Its disappearance prompted a massive international search lasting more than a year in the South Indian Ocean, the China Sea, and the Gulf of Thailand.
CNN has reported that worms can invade your brain if you eat this common food.
Once you consume them, they can move throughout your body, your eyes, your tissues, and most commonly, your brain.
They leave doctors puzzled in their wake as they migrate and settle to feed on the body they're invading.
A classic parasite, but this one can get into your head.
A British man was found to have a tapeworm moving inside his brain in 2013.
This form of tapeworm had never been seen before in the United Kingdom.
The patient had recently visited China, which along with South Korea, Japan, and Thailand has more regular occurrences of the parasite known as fibrometra.
Four years earlier, the man had first experienced symptoms such as headaches, which the team of doctors had treated as tubular callosis, but then it returned.
This time he had new symptoms.
The worm was now pushing on a new part of his brain, causing seizures and weakness in his legs.
The condition associated with this infection was, in fact, spargonosis.
There is no known drug to effectively treat the infection, meaning that upon diagnosis, doctors had to be quick to remove the worm surgically.
The adult form of the spirometra tapeworm only occurs in the intestines of cats and dogs, but as these animals shed the worm's eggs in their feces, the eggs can enter and contaminate water.
The resulting juvenile form of tapeworm, known as larvae, can then stay in water within certain small crustaceans or end up in frogs and snakes.
As larvae, they can invade humans through ingestion or direct contact with infected animals.

And, you know, they're getting minimal thrust, but once they start to use a superconducting reaction chamber, which by the way is sealed, there's no exhaust tube, they'll be able to increase the cue up into the tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands and be able to get a million pounds of thrust out of using electricity to power it.
Yes, well, I was so inspired by that to do a science project.
And I actually had called Lisa at the time because I wanted to be on coach, not about that, but about some research I'd done with genetics about the genetics of altruism.
Yes.
But I told her that I could have a field day analyzing those agroglyphs in the computer.
I mean, what kind of what do you put them through to analyze them?
I'm curious.

Well, okay, if you have two rectangles on the ground on very flat land, if you remember the alien face and the Arecibo reply were rectangles, but they were not parallel to each other.
No side of one rectangle was parallel to any side of the other.
And when you have that, there's enough information in a perspective picture of the scene to reconstruct a perfect map of the scene as it would look looking straight down on it.
And if the pictures were a hoax, that map would reveal the radar dish as an oval instead of a circle, and the parking lot, a third non-parallel rectangle in the scene.
In other words, we rarely, almost never, see a directly looking down photograph, do we?
unidentified
Yes, but if you...
If it were a hoax, the radar dish would come out oval on the map would come out not as a rectangle.
Now, I told Nancy Talbot, a crop circle expert, about this research project I did, and she got very angry.
She said, my great friends in England were there.
They walked around in it.
How could you dare to do research to demonstrate that it might not have really existed and might have just been a fancy drawing?
And I said, but science doesn't work that way.
And the thing She didn't give me time to say was that there are certain autistic savants who, when they look at such a photograph, can generate the map in their head and just draw it.
What I'm asking for is actual renderings of what you came up with if viewed.
unidentified
There are schematic drawings.
I'm blind and I can't do much good artwork, but I have what's a computer-generated pictures of the maps.
And what's interesting is at first the maps came out as if it had been hoaxes.
But I found out what happened is that the photos weren't hoaxes at all.
The scene was very real.
What happened was people had doctored some of the pictures to make the details in the formation show up in perspective.
And they took the pictures off of the picture, as it were, turned them into rectangles, put in the details, and then tried to put them back in perspective again.
And they didn't put them back exactly where they had taken them from.
And that ruined those pictures.
One picture where they didn't do any doctoring at all, the radar.
The first time I remember talking to you, I would have listening to you for a couple of years, and it was in 1994, and the story of the Trumbull UFO, Trumbull Ohio UFO came on.
And that captivated me.
It was like two or three hours of this amazing story.
But I wanted to talk about you.
You were talking about shadow creatures earlier, and it got me to thinking.
I'm an electrical engineer.
And I'm wondering what substance they're made out of, or do they only manifest as something in the electromagnetic spectrum?
And then I'm wondering, how could we interact with them?
Yeah, so I wonder, you know, like people who see these, maybe they might want to keep a flash unit with them and see if you could get their attention, light them up with a flash unit, see what kind of reaction they get.
I'm wondering about microwave soundbursts, laser, or a taser.
I mean, if we want to be unfriendly, we have a lot of options we could explore.
You know, if they want to continue to play those and, in effect, advertise the fact that Arbella is still here, all you gotta do is, well, twist the dial, fire up the phone, fire up the iPad, fire up the computer.
