- How should we understand the human inclination to interpret everything extraordinary under the lens of religious dogmatism? Can we prevent that collapse of categories when engaging the subject of UFOs and non-human intelligence?
On this episode, I sit down with Carlos Eire, author of “They Flew: A History of the Impossible,” and the T. L. Riggs Professor of History and Religious Studies at Yale University about his book, his sudden prominence in the UFO discussion, and the nature of human belief around extraordinary encounters and visionary experiences.
We explore how Christians, both Catholic and Protestant, are beginning now to accommodate the UFO subject, and how that process is in some instances reducing down to the already known categories of angels and demons.
We explore the work of author and religious studies scholar Diana Pasulka around the UFO subject, artificial intelligence and Christian dogma around the Anti-Christ, and explore how Eire himself sees the confluence of these two subject areas.

@jfrickingfaulk Under the esoteric influence: Author Mark Booth on the formative impact of non-human intelligence
2026/09/19 | 1h 9 mins.Human progress, from the very beginning, has been shaped by outside intelligences pursuing an unknown agenda by provoking innovation and inspiring experiencers to break old molds.
On this episode, I interview author Mark Booth about his studies of esoterica and his long-running assertions that secret wisdom-keepers have maintained a rogue academic lineage through millennia.
We also explore how great scientists often report contact experiences with some form of alien intelligence that often sparks their greatest ideas or hands down ready-made mathematical formula.
We survey a number of such scientists, examine the commonalities, and dissect what this means about the nature of reality, and of our species.
We then consider who these other intelligences might be, and how their prodding has led us to this inportant historical moment when technology seems poised to either poison or save the world.

@jfrickingfaulk- Thanks to the Tedesco Brothers, the UFO mystery is rapidly getting solved.
In this episode, I sit down with John and Gerry Tedesco to discuss their UAP research, their invention and deployment of the Nightcrawler mobile sensor platform, and where the resulting data has led them.
The brothers describe how they began their research after a government report unexpectedly validated the presence of UFOs in the world skies. They initially focused on electromagnetic surveys on Long Island's Robert Moses State Park, but have since expanded their research area.
They list the equipment they deploy – including radar systems, hyperspectral cameras, and UV detection equipment – and share a dramatic incident in August 2022 where they encountered what appeared to be a triangular formation of objects that caused their cameras to overload and left them temporarily paralyzed.
The brothers describe how their findings show various UAP morphologies, including orb-like objects, plasma-like formations, and triangular shapes, whose appearance appears to correlate with reduced air traffic.
They then lay out their future research plans, including maritime operations, to validate potential connections between UAP and deep ocean trenches, noting they've been approached by government agencies while continuing to fund their work through donations and partnerships.

@jfrickingfaulk Fundamental field of mind: Christopher Noël on the pervasive cosmic consciousness
2026/09/10 | 1h 20 mins.On this episode, I sit down with researcher and author Christopher Noël to discuss his nested field theory of consciousness, an idea that seeks to explain paranormal phenomena and UFO encounters through the presence of a fundamental field of mind.
Noël shares his personal experiences with ghosts as a teenager and his 20 years of research into Sasquatch, then outlines his theory that consciousness may be the 18th quantum field co-located with the 17 known fundamental fields that make up reality.
He explains how this consciousness field could accommodate phenomena like remote viewing, psychokinesis, and UAP maneuvers without requiring non-traditional physical propulsion systems, suggesting instead that these objects could be forged from Earth's materials using consciousness as a fundamental force.
The conversation also covers how this theory might explain the "Oz effect" – those commonly reported physical manifestations of paranormal activity that often include temperature changes, electromagnetic disturbances, and a sense of dislocation.

@jfrickingfaulkRethinking the anomalous: Transformation, technology, UFOs, and the human soul
2026/09/01 | 1h 55 mins.Encountering mystery prompts a profound rethinking of all we thought we knew.
On this episode, we convene a panel of folks who’ve long entertained the question of how the UFO and NHI intersects with spirituality, mythology, transformation, death, and the metacrisis now unfolding across human society.
David Stuss and Dr. Chris Avis, both educators from Camosun College in British Columbia, are joined by experiencer, author and podcaster Robin Lassiter and Torah teacher Yoni Shadme to explore whether humanity is facing a choice between artificial ascension through AI technology versus reclaiming spiritual capacities that have been part of human mythology for thousands of years.
The discussion centers around two potential future paths: one involving rampant technology that fills the spiritual gap created with materialism, where machines and humans converge. The other involves reconnecting with a natural human spirituality and the suddenly emerging divine feminine.
We explore the idea of grief as a metabolic process for processing trauma, as well as the concept of "vesseling" – that is, creating containers to hold collective sorrow – and the notion that generational human sorrow may be an impediment to our evolution as a species.
We discuss the pervasive sense of exile that humans feel, and where that sense of loss originates.
