Among the many unexplained events in history, the strange disasters of the mid-6th century stand out the strongest. Throughout the globe, a series of seemingly unconnected events occurred that have eluded explanation well into modern times. Plagues erupted, thriving cities fell, and entire civilizations abruptly ended as the skies became dark, blood rains fell, and a nuclear winter enveloped the world. Yet even at the time, nobody knew why. However, due to a strange intervention of serendipity, one researcher attending a lecture on tree ring patterns, of all things, stumbled upon a possible explanation linking all these events. A single event that led to an unprecedented catastrophe that marked the end of the ancient world and the beginning of our modern one. We discuss this history-changing event, hear how the Black Death is linked to volcanoes, how horses led to the destruction of the Roman Empire, and how population collapse led to the birth of Britain.
Then, for our Plus+ members, we consider the demonic nature of paranormal phenomena and unravel claims of occult influence in government weapons development, the rigging of the NFL, and why Rihanna's satanic-influenced halftime show is all a huge occult ritual.

Footage of an alleged Bigfoot creature captured in Colorado has ignited the internet this week. Could it be genuine, or is it a hoax? We examine the footage and contemplate some of the astonishing cases said to have occurred in the very region where the creature was spotted. With this in mind, we then explore a group of Bigfoot researchers who have encountered a myriad of strange synchronicities surrounding their research. Channeling, aliens, tree spirits, interdimensional doorways, and more completely envelop their research. We discuss the possibility of it being true or speculate that they may have delved too deeply down the rabbit hole.
For our Plus+ members, we investigate the incredible saga of an Italian security guard whose encounters with eerie extraterrestrials become the prelude to an alien invasion of Earth. Strange artifacts and high-strangeness elements only add to the complexity of this incredible case.

Some people see astrology as a fun triviality, while others take it considerably more seriously and believe it capable of predicting personality attributes and even directing the fates of our lifetimes. What are we to make of such beliefs? Are there really powerful cosmic forces affecting us simply based on our date of birth? Not according to one scientist and engineer who, in the late 1980s, discovered what he called 'Astrogenetics.' He found that it's not your date of birth that influences your cosmic attributes but rather your date of conception. Furthermore, it's not the constellations that affect and influence you, but rather the magnetic forces of the sun!
We discuss Maurice Cotterell and how he found a way to calculate the duration of long-term magnetic reversals on the Sun. Using this knowledge, he was able to decipher the codes of ancient sun-worshipping civilizations, like the Mayas of Central America. We contemplate the impact of these forces and their connections to cosmic cycles like the Kali Yugas.
For our Plus+ members, we delve into stories of mass abductions, alien sex groups, and the artifact on the Moon that might have led aliens to a small town in Massachusetts.

The infiltration of our society by extraterrestrials is an incredibly controversial and indeed outrageous concept to most rational thinking people. However, there are decades of case reports that suggest something strange and disturbing is occurring right under humanity's nose. We discuss the research of a reluctant experiencer who suggests there is an infiltration of humanity, known as 'The Program,' and humans are running out of time. Our society is standing on the precipice of an alien takeover, and is there anything we can do?
In our Plus+ extensions, we discuss the potential options to fight back as 'The Program' draws to a conclusion. Have the gods left us, and what are the spiritual implications of such a threat?

Encounters with interdimensional beings are rare in the annals of UFO literature, and such cases in the East are even rarer. However, there is one extraordinarily unusual case from China that defies explanation. We discuss the story of Hongqi Forest Farmer Meng Zhaoguo, whose encounters with a strange tadpole shaped UFO led to invisible weapon attacks and over 40 nocturnal liaisons with 10-foot-tall interdimensional space women! Despite the absurdity and changes in his story, some elements hint at an ancient advanced civilization that once thrived in China. Meng's travels into unreal realities will be explored as we delve into his experiences.
For our Plus+ members, we will embark on a quest in search of Killer Apes in Florida and consider the reports of Skunk apes. Are they simply escaped circus attractions, or is there something far more paranormal occurring in the Sunshine State?

The saga of the Mothman that descended upon a small West Virginian town in the late 1960s is legendary. However, many people believe the phenomena abruptly halted with the collapse of the Silver Bridge. The reality is that encounters with this enigmatic being continue to this very day, with people from all walks of life describing unusual, disturbing, and sometimes frightening encounters with Mothman and high strangeness. We take a look at some of these reports and delve into a recent documentary that explores these strange occurrences. These include strange burnt footprints, interdimensional off-world art connoisseurs, phantom phone calls, and much more.
