The 'Fermi Paradox' Paradox
Monday Oct 07, 2024
Monday Oct 07, 2024
In 1950 Nobel Prize winner Enrico Fermi asked the question "where are all the aliens?". It sparked huge debate as to why we have not encountered advanced extra terrestrial life, and theories that we are alone in the universe. We look into those arguments, and discover the 'Fermi Paradox' is not a paradox and has very little to do with Enrico Fermi.

Our night in haunted Shepton Mallet Prison
Monday Sep 30, 2024
Monday Sep 30, 2024
We spent the night in one of the world's most haunted prisons. We were not expecting anything spooky. But as you will hear, about half way through, in terms of the paranormal it all kicked off! Ghost sightings, music boxes going off, EVPs and thrown objects. We really don't know what to make of it.

Signs we live in a simulated reality

Monday Sep 16, 2024
We delve into scientific research that may prove we live in a simulated reality. What seems like computer code has been found in quantum physics equations and DNA. Even the existence of maths itself could be a sign.

What Are The Plants Thinking?
Monday Sep 09, 2024
Monday Sep 09, 2024
From the hippy times of the 1960's, a new thinking about plant consciousness emerged - perhaps the humble onion could actually think for itself? It sounds bizarre, but even the CIA was interested in the spying abilities of the humble houseplant. This week we look at how this thinking gave us cybernetics, several horror movies and a modern scientist determined to prove that plants really can think for themselves. We also revisit the Findhorn garden, the god Pan, and the potato king.

When we think of Cryptids, Bigfoot, Werewolves, or Nessie come to mind. But there is a rich vein of lesser known bug like cryptids that are said to exist. We go on the hunt for giant insects that roam our planet, and mini Cryptids that might live within our bodies.

The Exorcists' Psychiatrist
Monday Aug 05, 2024
Monday Aug 05, 2024
When psychiatrist Dr. Richard Gallagher was asked by an Exorcist to assess someone who claimed to be possessed by demons, the Dr. was skeptical about the idea of demonic possession. However, after working with Exorcist for many years he came to believe, that though most cases were due to psychological conditions, some were genuine cases of demonic involvement. We discuss his book "Demonic Foes'

The Man, Grinning Entities and a Listener Experiment
Monday Jul 29, 2024
Monday Jul 29, 2024
When 'The Man' was published as a dream experiment, the image gained much interest. We look at the similarities between this phenomenon and Indrid Cold, and conduct our own remote viewing experiment. Do we see evil faces in our minds as side effect of a psychological function, or is there more going on? We attempt to find out.

Monday Jul 22, 2024

In 1986 two smartly dressed men attacked newscaster Dan Rather, shouting at him "Kenneth, what's the frequency?". The story that followed saw the incident featured in literature, art and music. It led to a murder from an alleged time traveller, and sparked a conspiracy involving the KGB and the CIA.
