Virginia Robinson and Ashley Keller join the show to discuss the toxic water scandal at Camp Lejeune. This situation has left countless service members, families, and civilians with lifelong health battles, many resulting in death. In this episode, we dig into the Camp Lejeune Justice Act and the fight for accountability. Despite the government’s own evidence proving contamination, victims and their families are still waiting, with many left in limbo as legal teams struggle against delays, bureaucracy, and stonewalling. This conversation uncovers the scope of the tragedy, the failures in delivering justice, and the broader implications for how America treats its veterans and citizens when the government itself is responsible for harm.Chapters:00:00 Virginia's Journey Through Cancer07:07 Linking Illness to Camp Lejeune09:49 The Chemical Contamination at Camp Lejeune12:11 The Camp Lejeune Justice Act15:07 The Struggle for Accountability21:11 The Impact on Future Generations26:15 The Camp Lejeune Justice Act and Its Implications31:32 The Struggles of Military Families and Health Issues33:35 Political Responsibility and Accountability41:38 Community Support and Resources for Survivors45:19 The Call for Action and AwarenessCheck Out Our Sponsors:Alp!

The conversation expands into the spiritual dimension of technology, from AI and digital control systems to the symbolism of 666 and the Tower of Babel. We unpack the "problem–reaction–solution mechanism" of modern governance, the re-emergence of false spirituality in a technocratic age, and the ancient wisdom that still points toward balance, discernment, and truth.Chapters:00:00 Living in a Yurt: Embracing Change03:19 Nature and Spiritual Connection: Lessons from the Land06:26 Biblical Interpretation Through a Rustic Lens09:29 The Importance of Rest: Understanding the Sabbath12:23 Self-Sustainability: A Response to Modern Challenges15:18 The Impact of COVID-19: A Catalyst for Change18:06 The Language of Creation: A New Perspective on the Bible21:18 Cain and Abel: A Story of Rest and Renewal30:05 The Significance of Jubilee and Rest32:57 The Flood: A Cosmic Rest and Renewal34:58 Cycles of Rest: Sabbath, Jubilee, and Nature39:54 666: The Mark of the Beast and Its Symbolism01:02:19 The AI God: Human Hubris and Control01:06:39 The Digital Tower of Babel01:09:20 Waiting for God's Timing01:10:32 Technology as a Vehicle for Evil01:12:31 Skepticism and Controlled Opposition01:15:23 The Problem-Reaction-Solution Dynamic01:18:34 Factional Warfare and Online Discourse01:24:52 The Importance of True Dialectic01:32:54 Discernment Through Biblical Principles01:39:38 Giants in the Bible: Symbolism and Reality01:45:21 The Vague Nature of Multiculturalism01:47:15 Giants and Grotesque Beings: Symbolism in Society01:50:04 The Nephilim: Fallen Beings and Their Legacy01:52:58 Hidden Histories: Giants in Cultural Narratives01:56:45 Spirituality vs. Science: The New Age Conundrum02:01:21 The Rise of a New Priest Class02:13:59 Understanding the True Religion: A Call to ActionCheck Out Our Sponsors:Alp!

From the temples of Ancient Egypt to Silicon Valley boardrooms, the dream of transcending human limits has stalked civilization like a shadow. This episode pulls back the veil on transhumanism, its hidden roots in Hermeticism, Rosicrucian mysticism, and Francis Bacon’s New Atlantis. We trace the lineage from the occult whispers of Hermes Trismegistus to the cold eugenics of Julian Huxley, and finally into the hands of today’s architects: Peter Thiel, Ray Kurzweil, and Elon Musk.

In this episode, we pull back the curtain on the biopharmaceutical complex, the coordinated media fear campaigns, and the uncomfortable truths about autism, COVID-19, and the global mRNA agenda that the establishment doesn’t want you to hear.Dr. Peter McCullough, one of the most published cardiologists in history, rose to international prominence during the COVID-19 pandemic for challenging official narratives on early treatment and vaccine safety.

Brandon Shane of "Beyond Formal" joins the show.This episode unpacks the chilling night in 1955 when a Kentucky farmhouse was terrorized by "Goblins" and how that single event spiraled into a web of high strangeness. We trace the threads that connect Hellier’s unsettling rabbit holes, to the Goblins, from shadowy Mammoth Cave systems to the whispered name of Indrid Cold. Along the way, we dig into the eerie symbolism of the 37th parallel, Mothman, the Flatwoods Monster, and the unnerving synchronicities that refuse to be coincidence. Appalachia doesn’t just hold folklore; it holds secrets, and we went hunting for them.Chapters:00:00 Dogman Attack & the Land Between the Lakes17:08 Will-o'-the-Wisp and Cultural Folklore22:07 The Tapestry of Folklore: Mothman and Beyond27:34 The Goblins of Appalachia: Harbingers of Doom29:18 Biological Mysteries: The Physiology of Cryptids33:01 The Watchers: Spirits and Observers in Folklore34:28 Cultural Connections: Appalachian Myths and European Lore36:46 The Dark Depths: Caves as Spiritual Strongholds42:13 Hallucinations and the Unknown: The Psychological Aspect of Caves46:59 Native American Folklore: The Managishi and Other Spirits50:15 The Spread of Legends: Goblins Across Cultures51:07 The Kelly Hopkinsville Incident: A Case Study53:17 UAPs in Appalachia: A Low Reporting Region01:01:29 The Context of Appalachian Folklore01:02:24 Dramatic Retelling of the Kelly-Hopkinsville Incident01:07:58 Witness Accounts and Police Investigation01:13:42 Skepticism and Debunking the Sutton Family's Claims01:18:37 The Aftermath and Impact on the Sutton Family01:23:13 Physical Descriptions and Behavioral Analysis of the Goblins01:38:31 Theories on the Goblins' Nature and Intentions01:40:16 The Misunderstood Visitors01:41:17 Angels, Demons, and UAPs01:43:43 Spiritual Dimensions and Travel01:45:29 The Nature of Beings and Their Origins01:46:41 Transmedium Travel and Anomalous Phenomena01:49:35 Interdimensionality and Remote Viewing01:55:41 Mysteries of the Spiritual Realm01:57:40 The Flatwoods Monster and Mothman Connection02:05:33 Hellier and Modern InvestigationsCheck Out Our Sponsors:Alp!
