    Mysteriousnesses EP 48: GATE, CERN & Interdimensional Gnomes

    This week on Mysteriousnesses, John J Murray and Eric Readinger venture deep into conspiracy theories, paranormal encounters, and reality itself. Was the GATE (Gifted and Talented Education) Program of the 1980s and 1990s really designed to identify gifted students... or was it something much stranger? We examine one of the internet's most persistent conspiracy theories and the claims that the program may have had hidden motives. Next, we discuss CERN's planned shutdown until 2030 and why it's become a focal point for theories involving the Mandela Effect, alternate timelines, and Quantum Immortality. Is reality changing around us, or are our memories simply playing tricks? Then things get even weirder. We break down the viral claim of a reptilian shapeshifter spotted at the FIFA World Cup, share chilling stories of Glitches in the Matrix, investigate reports of interdimensional gnomes, and somewhere along the way, John J receives a phone call from his grandparents that may leave you questioning reality just as much as the rest of the episode. If you enjoy conspiracies, paranormal mysteries, unexplained phenomena, and asking, "What if?" then you've found your people. This episode is brought to you by Clean AF CBD.

    Mysteriousnesses EP 47: Time Traveling Rodents and Alien Species

    John J Murray and Eric Readinger return for another trip beyond the edge of reason, and this week's episode might be our most dangerous yet. We begin with billionaire tech visionary Peter Thiel's mysterious Dialogue Society, an invitation-only gathering of powerful thinkers, scientists, and influencers. Is it just a conference, or could the decisions made there genuinely shape the future of humanity? We explore the rumors, the secrecy, and why the whole thing sounds like the first act of a science fiction movie. Then we tackle a question that has somehow become impossible to ignore: Is Michael Jordan actually an alien? We review the evidence, the superhuman accomplishments, and whether His Airness may have been sent here from another world to dominate basketball and sell sneakers. Next, we reach out to the MYST listeners for advice regarding a man attempting to build a DIY time machine. Is he a visionary genius, a future legend, or someone who desperately needs adult supervision? More importantly, could successful time travel finally help solve a lingering mystery involving Richard Gere that has puzzled the internet for decades? We also examine reports about the various alien species that conspiracy researchers believe governments may be communicating with, from Greys to Nordics and beyond. Then we ask whether the famous Tic Tac UAPs are actually extraterrestrial craft, advanced human technology, or something even stranger—an artificial intelligence operating independently of any civilization. Finally, John J and Eric wrap things up with a discussion of the season finale of Widows Bay, breaking down the mysteries, theories, and lingering questions, before jumping into the latest season of Rick and Morty, proving once again that reality may be every bit as bizarre as fiction. Secret societies. Time travel. Alien basketball players. Government UFOs. Just another week on MYST. #MYSTPodcast #TheMysteriousnessPodcast #ParanormalPodcast #WeirdPodcast #NewEpisode #PodcastLife #PodcastClips #HighStrangeness #ConspiracyTheory #HiddenTruth #UnexplainedMysteries #FringeTheory #TheTruthIsOutThere #StayMysterious #MYSTPodcast #TheMysteriousnessPodcast #ParanormalPodcast #HighStrangeness #UFO #UAP #TicTacUFO #AlienLife #AlienContact #Disclosure #TimeTravel #DIYTimeMachine #Chrononaut #SecretSociety

    EP 575: Happy Pride

    This week on Something Planet, John J Murray is joined by artist and creative force Mark Castle for a conversation that covers everything from Pride Month and the role of art in modern culture to jury duty, weird news, and the general confusion of living in 2026. The guys discuss Pride, creativity, painting, and the strange ways artists and audiences interact in the social media age. They also dive into the bizarre story of people reportedly emerging from the sewers of New York City like they're auditioning for a reboot of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, and examine the growing trend of "Teen Takeovers" happening across the country. In Massive Media, they review: The Mandalorian and GroguI Love BoostersDicks: The MusicalAnd several other movies and shows that caught their attention this weekIt's an episode full of art, culture, weird headlines, and the kind of conversations that can only happen when you put a podcaster and a painter in the same room.

    Mysteriousnesses EP 46: Missing Scientist Vortex Files

    John J Murray and Eric Readinger return with another descent into the strange, the paranormal, and the deeply unsettling. This week we explore a new study suggesting that alternate-dimensional versions of ourselves may actually influence our thoughts, emotions, and decisions. So if your life feels chaotic lately, there’s now a non-zero chance another version of you in a different reality is making things worse. We also discuss the disturbing disappearance of Savannah Guthrie’s mother, who has now been missing for over 100 days, and how stories like this always seem to drift into territory that feels far stranger than coincidence. Then things get extra conspiratorial as we look into the growing list of scientists, researchers, and engineers connected to UFO studies, advanced propulsion, and alternative energy projects who ended up mysteriously dead or missing. Is it paranoia? Bad luck? Or are certain doors not meant to be opened? We also dig into newly released UFO-related files from the Department of War, including reports that somehow raise more questions than answers, plus the bizarre story of a couple who claimed they became trapped driving through what appeared to be a vortex or looping stretch of reality where time and direction stopped making sense. And finally, we talk about the new paranormal series Widows Bay on Apple TV+ and whether it captures the true feeling of creeping supernatural dread… or just reminds us we should never trust coastal towns in fiction. Reality feels thinner every week on MYST.

    EP 574: Vegan Maxxing

    This week on Something Planet, John J Murray is joined by Bradley Gilmore for an episode that somehow connects veganism, literary success, roast comedy, and one of the strangest internet trends imaginable. The guys talk about John J’s short story “The Barrel” being officially published by ISSUED Journal at issuedjournal.com, proving once again that years of podcast brain damage can occasionally produce art. They also get into veganism, the fine art of roast jokes, and a brand-new “looksmaxxing” trend that should probably require medical supervision. In Massive Media, they review: The Boys Season 5The Long Walk28 Years LaterBallerinaFrom superheroes to zombies to Keanu-adjacent assassins, the guys break down what’s worth watching and what deserves to be launched directly into the sun. Funny, weird, and deeply unserious in all the right ways.

    EP 573: More Seasoned Veterans

    Host John J Murray sits down with comedian and fellow veteran Te Davis for a real, unfiltered conversation about what’s going on in the world—and how it actually affects people who’ve lived it. We dive into veterans’ issues, leadership concerns, and why so many are questioning decisions coming out of the Pentagon. From there, we get into the escalating conflict involving Iran, where tensions remain high with no clear resolution despite massive military action and global fallout . Then it gets even more surreal: the rise of robots and AI on the battlefield. From logistics bots being tested in real warzones to drones and unmanned systems taking over frontline roles, warfare is starting to look like science fiction . We also talk about the tragic story surrounding Clavicular’s overdose, and in a much-needed shift, break down what we’re watching lately—movies, shows, and everything in between. Real talk, dark humor, and a little bit of “how did we get here?” energy. Subscribe on YouTube and follow on Spotify for new episodes every week.
