Into The Portal Into The Portal

It is 1890s California. Imagine living in an era before the first zeppelins hit the skies, before the first test flight of the Wright brothers, and witnessing a massive cigar-shaped craft emerging from the clouds. Long before the 1947 UFO sightings of Kenneth Arnold, or the discovery at Roswell, there were reports of strange craft which seemed to defy explanation in the skies above California and moving eastward across dozens of states. The first modern UFOs that straddled the line between human technological abilities and fantastical steampunkesque flying machines. Massive craft with bright lights and manned by sizeable crews were witnessed by hundreds of ordinary Americans across the country, hovering above crowds, emanating strange sounds, and even possibly travelling at speeds up to 150 mph. It's a case that has become known as the Phantom Airship Mystery.

Could this be epic advanced aviation? Alternatively, could it possibly be explained as early cases of foreign spies and espionage from the skies? Or, to go even further, could we be dealing with some kind of early extraterrestrial mimicry of zeppelin-like technology soon to be deployed? Join us as we explore a legend from yore, the mystery of the phantom airship.

Over the past several years, rumours and reports have resurfaced of a massive pyramid structure said to be hidden underground in a chamber beneath the ice, snow and rock of the remote Alaska mountains. Towering over 1000 feet high, this alleged enigma remains buried between remote mountain ranges in a vast ice-covered landscape. If this structure does exist, it could quite possibly connect us to an unknown past and perhaps to dimensions beyond our own. Join us on Into The Portal, as we venture into the remote wilds of the Alaskan mountains for a discussion of a mysterious megalith known as The Dark Pyramid.
