  1. Havana Syndrome

    HACE 1 DÍA

    Havana Syndrome

    This week we’re investigating the unsettling mystery of Havana Syndrome, the series of “Anomalous Health Incidents” that have plagued US diplomats and CIA agents around the globe. Is it a clandestine Russian microwave weapon that can fit in a backpack? We explore the history of the Moscow Signal, the terrifying potential of “voice to skull” technology, and why Laura Bush might have been an early target. Hosted on Acast.

  2. Atlantis

    1 ABR

    Atlantis

    It’s one of history's most enduring mysteries: the lost civilization of Atlantis. From a 19th century congressman who convinced Charles Darwin it was real, to psychic Edgar Casey predicting the discovery of an underwater stone road in the Bahamas decades before divers actually found it, to a 25-mile-wide circular formation in the Sahara that matches Plato's description almost exactly — the rabbit hole goes deep. Really deep. Like, possibly-under-Antarctica deep.  We through the major theories: a pre-Ice Age global civilization wiped out by a comet, crystal-powered technology misused by the morally corrupt, a misremembered volcanic catastrophe, and of course, aliens setting up a base of operations on a nice island before conveniently flooding the evidence.

  3. Tulpas

    25 MAR

    Tulpas

    This week, Tom and Laura are getting into tulpas — the ancient Tibetan practice of conjuring a living being purely through the power of concentrated thought. They explore how the concept traveled from Buddhist monasteries to 4chan forums (via a very unexpected My Little Pony detour), and discuss the modern "tulpamancer" community that's been trying to will fictional characters into existence ever since. They also dig into the Philip Experiment, a 1972 Toronto study in which a group of regular people invented a fictional 17th-century ghost and then tried to hold a séance with him — with some genuinely strange results. Plus, the Global Consciousness Project's claim that random number generators went haywire before the first plane hit on 9/11, Philip K. Dick's season pass to Disneyland and his very unexpected lunch companion, Alan Moore spotting John Constantine in a sandwich shop, and a comics writer who may have accidentally manifested an armed robbery straight out of a scene he'd just finished writing.

  4. Black Knight Satellite

    18 MAR

    Black Knight Satellite

    This week we’re covering the legend of the Black Knight Satellite, a purported alien object that has supposedly been orbiting Earth for 13,000 years. Was it the source of the mysterious radio signals Nikola Tesla found in 1899? Did NASA lie about the photo it took of it in 1998? Did a scientist decode its radio signal to find a map of the star system Epsilon Boötis? Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

  5. Disclosure

    11 MAR

    Disclosure

    Is the government finally ready to disclose to the world what it knows about the UFO phenomenon, or are they just trying to keep everyone confused? This week we discuss the upcoming Steven Spielberg movie “Disclosure Day” and the idea that the powers-that-be are softening everyone up for a big surprise. Also, Tom finds an old Berenstain Bears book and believes he’s a refugee from a parallel universe. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

  7. The Cottingley Fairies

    21/08/2024

    The Cottingley Fairies

    In 1917, two young cousins in England captured photographs allegedly showing fairies, which caught the attention of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle and sparked a debate that lasted decades. We explore the aftermath of that incident, including the eventual admission of a partial hoax, while considering the enduring mystery surrounding the fifth and final photograph that one cousin insisted was genuine until her death.
