    The Light Gate Episode #135: Joyce Aldrich (experiencer/podcaster)

    Tonight, the Light Gate welcomes experiencer and podcaster Joyce Aldrich. She has an amazing series of contacts with extraterrestrials. Joyce was in Ottawa on Wednesday, July 27th, 1955, at 4:00 am, to Irene and Lucien Aldrich, Joyce was raised in a family with a strong theatrical background. She lived a gypsy life with her parents, attending 10 schools, and living in 17 residences in two provinces (Ontario and Quebec) and three cities, Hull, Ottawa, and Toronto, by the age of 17. Her mother was an actress, singer, and producer. Her father was a commission salesman. They came to Toronto to make her mother's fortune. She eventually landed a 27-year gig (unheard of, nowadays) as 'Rockin' Irene' at Ye Olde Brunswick House, on Bloor...now a Rexall (blech!), but there's a brass plaque on that brick wall with her contribution on it, along with Etta James, Peter Appleyard, Gordon Lightfoot, Loretta Lynn, and others who played there. Her mother never wanted her to sing, but genes are genes, and being exposed to theatre and music her entire life, it was part of Joyce's DNA. There have been some setbacks in her career, a lot of starts and stops, along the way. It's made her quirky, which is okey dokey, when you're an artist. She also paints, as well as doing the music thing. It's all part of the package, isn't it? Her stuff is on YouTube, and, if you like it, you can purchase it on iTunes. She's had a litetime of amazing UFO/ET and paranormal encounters and many other incredible adventures. She is also the host of the Joyce Aldrich Show on CHHA 1610 AM, in Toronto, Sundays, from 7 - 9 pm, and many other platforms. Thank you for tuning into The Light Gate. With Dolly Safran having so much extensive experience as a firsthand lifelong contactee, and my own experience as a longtime researcher, along with our wonderful guests, we aim to bring new insights into the field of UFOs and the paranormal, and a wide variety of other subjects. We all deserve to know the truth about what's happening on our planet, and beyond!

Have fun!

He has a book “The Dreamchaser Workbook,” which you can download for free by visiting his facebook page. His Youtube channel is amazing.

It's a raw, unfiltered journey into the hidden truths the mainstream avoids. Each episode unlocks powerful insights from radical thinkers, spiritual pioneers, and fearless healers who challenge the status quo and awaken what's been dormant within you. If you’ve ever felt like there’s more beneath the surface, there is.
