Afraid of Stanley Kubrick, AI, Alchemy, MK Ultra, and Our Spiritual Destiny

Bucket list for tonight's show -- our guest is Jay Weidner, a filmmaker, author and scholar known for (among many things) his 3-part docuseries "Kubrick's Odyssey" as well as his appearance in Rodney Ascher's "Room 237". The final film in the Kubrick Odyssey Trilogy is A Clockwork Shining, which can be seen on Tubi and Prime Video, and posits an interesting theory: the film is not a horror film at all, but rather a story about the infamous CIA MK Ultra mind control experiments. 99% of the world's population asks questions; but it is that rare 1% that searches and finds answers. I have followed Jay's tenacity in uncovering life's mysteries for over a decade, and have my "eyes wide opened". I recommend you check out his website, books, and film work -- it literally could blow your mind.

Afraid of Bible Prophecy

Remember that crazy guy with the "End Times" warning blasted from a bullhorn on college campuses? I do. At Indiana University we called him Mad Max. Well, after all this time -- geez, maybe the guy was legit. It's a crazy world out there and no matter what side of the fence you sit on -- liberal/conservative, religious/spiritual, believer/skeptic ... you can't deny we are undergoing either pure chaos or a predetermined destiny. On this episode we talk solar eclipse, CERN, cicadas, and how/if it all ties into biblical prophecy. Take a listen and decide for yourself. After all, we all have free will.

Afraid of Abducted: The Human Harvest

Many guests have claimed that aliens are good. Tonight's guest has a different take -- and it's disturbingly personal. Author/Experiencer Karin Wilkinson ( “STOLEN SEED, EVIL HARVEST”) shares the chronicle of her life experiences and insights into the activities and dark motives of the alleged extraterrestrial beings. Karen delves into the reasons behind their actions, the challenges they encounter, and the intricate web of deceit they weave in their interactions with humanity. Are humans being harvested by non-human entities ... fallen angels, not "aliens" ... to create hybrids and eventually displace the human race? What you find out just may frighten you.

Afraid of My Temporary Death Experience

When Rosemary’s husband committed suicide at their home, she fell into a pit so deep and dark that medical professionals expressed doubts that she’d ever fully recover. Two years later, Rosemary was diagnosed with stage two cancer, and during a related “minor medical procedure,” she bled to death and had no heart beat.
