In this edition of AI, we are joined by attorney, poet, and author, Professor Derrick Howard. We have the privilege of discussing Derrick's new book, Omnis: Last of Earth. It was a wonderful conversation about the book that led deeper into discussion about human history, society, culture, philosophy, and of course, the weird. If you love Science Fiction, Futuristic Dystopian, kung-fu, action, thriller,  with all kinds of twists and turns, this is the book for you. An informative blurb and where you can buy the book will be listed below. Y'all will not regret purchasing this book, diving into it, and having it on your shelves to revisit anytime. "On Intergalactic Independence Day Earth 2050, Sledge, a reluctant, blind hero, is dragged, kicking, and screaming into a gallant struggle for survival just like you. With only a walking stick and grit as aid, he finds himself in a dystopic universe pitted against celestial beings exploiting the confluence of apex AI, cancer cultures, perpetual acts of genocide, and humankind's irrepressible self-indulgence to exterminate humans for past misdeeds and future crimes. Like you, fate demands Sledge concede if freedom is best achieved by accepting the destiny he shares with all other humans or by continuing to evade it with precious little in hand. This epic, action-packed, Afrofuturistic, sci-fi novel, Omnis: Last Man of Earth, sets forth Sledge's journey as he tangles with celestials, transhumans, aliens, drones, and sentients while beings throughout the universe gather around holoprojectors to wager on Earth's destruction. Will you be a spectator in your self-destruction or a participant in your survival? Read on ... The clock is ticking. Tick, tick, tick ...! What are you going to do?"https://www.amazon.com/Omnis-Last-Earth-Derrick-Howard/dp/B0CQD54ZRJ Support the Show.

Merry Christmas Hillfolk! Your hosts have been taking this holiday season to spend time with their families, but we didn't want to go more than two weeks without giving you some content. Since several of you have asked about our adventures with the rediscovered rock carvings, and the Swift Silver Mine, and seeing as our good friend Mark Steeves over at My Family Thinks I'm Crazy Podcast gave us his blessing, we are re-releasing our first episode with him, in which we go into full detail of our Indiana Jonesesque mystery.

This is the latest episode of the reborn Order of the Sword and Staff podcast, wherein the Shadow Appalachia crew talk spiritual warfare, the delay in Shadow Appalachia, share individual strange encounters since standing on the head of the Logan County Serpent Mound a year ago, plans going forward and talk Southern Death Cult symbolism and mythology that seems to be reoccurring among each of us as a number of odd synchronicities. We hadn't talked about many of these things prior as they were happening to each of us, and so connections are made in real-time as we're figuring it out and sharing experiences that will likely shape the direction of Shadow Appalachia, which resumes shooting in March of 24.

In this edition of AI, Lance talks about a weird aerial phenomenon, witnessed by him and his wife, while driving down the highway. Then, they boys jump into a book, In the Land of the Cattawampus, written by Kristen Puckett. The guys talk about eidolas, specifically Polee, the Bluefield Eidola, and cover some alleged sightings and encounters that fall in the same category. What is an eidola? How do they operate? Where do they fall in the hierarchy of entities? We discuss all this and much more here.Become AI Kinfolk over on Patreon atpatreon.com/appalachian_intelligenceJoin our Discord server https://discord.gg/CWUaqrKqPlease rate and review this episode wherever you listen to podcasts.Reach out to us with your own stories at appalachianintelligence@gmail.comFollow us on Twitter at @AiAppIntelPodFollow us on Facebook at Appalachian IntelligenceFollow us on Instagram @appalachianintelligenceSubscribe to our YouTube channel Appalachian IntelligenceSend us weird, wild, cool, and interesting stuff to the show's PO Box atPO Box 855Haysi, VA 24256Intro Music - The Colonel - Zachariah HickmanOutro Music - Dark Dream - Brad Hill Support the Show.

In this edition of AI, we sit down with our good friend Bo Kennedy from The BUMP Podcast. Bo shares a personal Bigfoot encounter and gives us his thoughts and theories on the big guy. We also get into our arch nemesis, the Queen of Demons, that ole she devil, Lilith, and some of the research Bo has put into this entity.

In this edition of AI we welcome the host of The Confessionals Podcast, CEO of Merkel Media, Tony Merkel. Tony came on to discuss his most recent film, The Shape of Shadows, along with past films and some projects that are coming in the near future. This conversation went much deeper than just talking about documentaries though. Tony begins by rehashing his encounter with a Satanist that sent him into a dark place for awhile. We recover from that though and go on to have a fantastic discussion about spirituality, faith, callings on our lives, and how we believe that God is putting people of His choosing in the places they need to be for a time such as now to expose the real darkness that is at play in the world. This was a really light hearted conversation that will allow you Hillfolk to see Tony expressing a lot of his thoughts and viewpoints instead of just hearing him listen to others. Tony is a great friend and has been a tremendous help to us in growing our show, so it was a real pleasure having him on.Check Tony's work herehttps://www.merkel.media/https://www.theconfessionalspodcast.com/Become AI Kinfolk over on Patreon atpatreon.com/appalachian_intelligenceJoin our Discord server https://discord.gg/CWUaqrKqPlease rate and review this episode wherever you listen to podcasts.Reach out to us with your own stories at appalachianintelligence@gmail.comFollow us on Twitter at @AiAppIntelPodFollow us on Facebook at Appalachian IntelligenceFollow us on Instagram @appalachianintelligenceSubscribe to our YouTube channel Appalachian IntelligenceSend us weird, wild, cool, and interesting stuff to the show's PO Box atPO Box 855Haysi, VA 24256Intro Music - The Colonel - Zachariah HickmanOutro Music - Dark Dream - Brad Hill Support the Show.
