OUT THERE

 Dr. Melvin Morse, M.D., is an Associate Professor of Pediatrics at the University of Washington. He has studied near-death experiences in children for 15 years and is the author of several outstanding books on the subject: "Closer to the Light, Transformed by the Light, Parting Visions, his latest book, Where God Lives. He is primarily interested in learning how to use the visions that surround death to heal grief. The stories that children have told him about what it is like to die have lessons for all of us, especially those attempting to understand the meaning of death or the death of a child.

Pretty interesting stuff, I found it on a website:  www.near-death.com and www.spiritualscientific.com .  I am surprised to find out how many doctors and scientists are seriously researching N.D.E.'s and reporting their results with an open mind to all posibilities. What really impressed me with Dr. Morse was the following comments from the near death website: "Dr. Morse argues that the study of NDEs provides a starting point for understanding the mysterious link between our brains and the universe. Though sound scientific studies have already identified the existence of "the God Spot" - the right temporal lobe of the brain - Morse takes this concept several steps further. Building on the controversial theory that memory may actually be stored outside the brain, he suggests that the right temporal lobe acts not as a "computer" for our individual minds, but as a transmitter and receiver of the universal mind - and that we can actually learn to stimulate this part of our brains in a number of ways besides near-death or active dying. The challenge, he says, is to learn how to integrate the rational (left) and spiritual (right) sides of our brains."

Also this week I delve into soul levels.  Are you an old soul?  Also I share a couple of stories regarding my father just before he passed in 1984 in Madison Wisconsin.  Have you ever had a near death experience, or know someone who has?  Do you have a story to tell?

 Hi, I'm TJ, host of Out There.  It's a strange show done by a strange host.  How are you?  I thought it might be interesting to try to connect with you, no matter where you are listening.  Why do you listen?  Is this a form of punishiment in your country?  I'm serious, I see that people from China, Russia, Australia, Africa, Europe, and North America appear to be coming to this site.   Every couple of weeks I go to my site's stat page and see who may be popping in.  Cool.  I don't have info on where you live, nor do I want that info, I just have info from what countries are hitting my site. 

So what do you like about the show?  Do you  have something you would like to share?  You can do it in anominity if you wish.  A story, an experience, an opinion.  If you have a lot to say I might even let you host the show, now who in their right mind would do that?  I would.  What difference does it make, this is not rocket science.

In the near future I am going to have a show with Roslyn McGrath about energy work that you can participate in if you want.  It was designed so that you may interact with it even it is pre recorded.  Also, in the near future Jim Maroney is scheduled to come back on my show.  For now, it's yours if you'd like to share something...

 This week a really cool show dealing with ufo's, bigfoot and thunder birds.  Stan Gordon has been doing research in Pennsylvania since he was 10 years old, he has been at it for 50 years.  He has listened to and investigated thousands of reports regarding the unknown.  Stan was skeptical at first but after hearing so many stories he has realized something unusual may be going on.  This show delves into investigations that you don't hear about too often- the ufo/bigfoot connection.  Stan is well respected because he takes a scientific approach to his work and has so many case files it's hard to ignore all of the evidence. 

You will also hear us talk about the Kecksburg Incident, an event that occured in 1965 where many believe a bell shaped craft was recovered.  This incident took place about 10 miles from Stan's home.  We delve into the thunder birds, some believe these are giant prehistoric birds that still exist today.  2 years ago I saw a huge bird flying down a two rut road, it's wingspan covered the width of the road.  I'm not saying it was a thunder bird, I just don't know what it was.

A couple thoughts.  If bigfoot is real why has no one ever found a body?  Why haven't hunters shot them before?  Well, you will hear a couple of eye witness reports where people did try to shoot them and it had no apparent effect.  Really?  How can that be?  Perhaps they are not what we think they are.  Maybe there is more to these beings than we realize, maybe they have abilities that we don't even have and maybe they are connected to an advanced civilization.  You'd think if that was the case they'd at least take a bath once in a while!  The natives refer to the sasquatch as the guardian of the woods, the keepers of the forests.  They also say that they are half spirit and half real.  After talking to Stan, it appears that bullets have no effect on them so perhaps we should listen closer to what the natives have been trying to tell us for hundreds of years.

What I take away from this interview with Stan is that wherever there are forests and remote areas, there seems to be a lot of stange things going on.  This week I welcome Stan Gordon.

Those of you who have listened to this show for a while know that this podcast is taken from my experiences and curiousity.  It really started when I was 4 and I woke up several times and the room was vibrating.  In the 1980's there were a couple of influences that really zapped me.  One was reading the book Ramtha, the other was watching  a video in 1988 that was made by William Cooper.  Cooper was a former naval intelligence officer who had become privy to many government secrets, or so he claimed, and was sharing that information with people all over the country.  The video I saw was filmed in Sedona Arizona.  Back then, in the eighties, there really weren't a lot of sources you could turn to to get your paranormal fix.  Now, it's endless, and I really don't know who's telling the truth and who's making it up.  That is why I decided to make my show about personal experiences and not buy into all of the hype that so many other shows do or schedule guests who claim to be experts although they never had a paranormal experience.  It's like the marriage advisor who's been divorced 3 times and still wants us to buy into his b.s. that he knows how to save your marriage.  Really?  I've also been turned off by so called experts because they develope egos and then their word becomes gospel.  It's just crazy, it almost becomes a religion because so many follow certain individuals.  Instead, follow yourself.  Make up your own mind, trust your own heart.

The video I saw back in 1988 covered 3 main topics, New World Order, UFOs and the  government cover up, and the Kennedy assassination.  When I first saw the video I was blown away and I showed it to a few people, over time I let go of it but kept in mind what was said.  It wasn't til about a year ago that I Googled William Cooper only to find out that he had been gunned down in 2001 (some 10 years after this interview) by the police near his home in Arizona.  Now what brought that on?  Did he flip out?  Does that destroy any potential credibility he previously had?  Could his death have been a set up?  I don't know the answer to those questions, I do know that he did honorably serve his country and what drew me to his video was his down to earth approach.   I am convinced that there is disinformation to offset the truth.  Those that have been involved in the UFO investigation field know that "someone" has been spreading disinformation just to discredit those who want to honestly tell their story.  So perhaps William Cooper is right on that note.  I am somewhat convinced that there is a plan to create a one world government, it appears to be playing out right now.  Perhaps Cooper was right again.  As for Kennedy, I haven't a clue but about 15 years ago Bill Curtis did a miniseries on The Men Who Killed Kennedy. 

In the end after the Cooper video and listening to shows like Jeff Rense, I became a paranoid individual.  I even started getting sick.  I learned I could not live that way, I learned I was just going to live through my own experiences because, how do I know who's telling the truth?  I learned that whatever you hold onto the longest becomes the strongest.  So instead of holding onto fear of what may be, I've gone the route of exploring my own spirituality which has given me the peace and realization that all things happen for a reason and that reason ultimately is our spiritual growth, or so I believe.  How about you?

Why am I on edge more?  Why is that I just don't seem to care about many things like I used to?  Maybe I'm just getting older.  I just had this conversation with a co worker who has been getting frustrated because others don't appear to care about their jobs.   I still care about doing a good job, I am just tired of dealing with the lower vibration that exists in the workplace.  This never used to bother me that much.  Is it me, or is it something that we can't see going on?  

Something is going on with the planet, the magnetic poles are moving, shifting.  Regardless of  all of the doom and gloom, or lack there of, is this pole shift having an affect on all of us?  Could that be why so many are not acting like themselves.  Some say that we are just getting rid of what doesn't serve us.  Some say the planet is evolving spiritually and so are we.  To be honest I've even lost a bit of desire to do this podcast.  I think, why?  What am I trying to gain by doing this show?  At first, I felt I was driven to do this by an invisible force that was pushing me forward to help reveal things that have been hidden or unknown.  I felt the strange experiences I had from early on in my life were all preparing me for this show.  Now I realize a lot of this was for my own learning, by talking to the guests I've gained perspective that I didn't have before.  I don't know what my listeners think, do you feel this way as well?  I can only imagine that some of you do.

I thought back to an interview I did with Little Fox, I really liked what he had to say and how he left it up to me to make my own changes.   In a way it all was put in perspective, the planet is changing and so are we.  It is not a bad thing, just part of our growth.  This show drew the most commentary from listeners, some liked what he had to say, some felt he was a phony.  I personally felt the previous.  Many are saying similar things, the only thing I don't like is that they don't empower you, they make you dependent on them.  That is not the right way.  Little Fox empowers you with a simple message.

In June of 2011 I interviewed Linda Zimmeran from New York State.  I had to cut the audio from the show to make room on my website.  I figured now was as good as time as any to restore the show I did with Linda about her ghostly adventures of researching and storytelling.

Several years ago, Linda was giving a series of history lectures for the bicentennial of Rockland County, in southern New York’s beautiful Hudson Valley. One evening, someone asked about local ghosts and legends, so Linda told the one ghost story she knew. A few days later, she received a call. The excited voice on the other end of the line said, "I hear you give ghost talks!" Linda then added a few more ghost stories to her lectures, word spread, and by the end of the series, more people were showing up to hear about the ghosts than the history.

Please welcome Linda Zimmerman from upstate New York with a few creepy tales of ghost investigations.  www.ghostinvestigator.com

This picture was snapped in 2009 by a family when they were vacationing in Mexico and took a picture of the Mayan Kukulkan pyramid.  The pink beam of light only showed up in one photo that the family took.  Apparently other lights from pyramids have been showing up in other parts of the world.  What's going on?  Are the pyramids more than just tombs as we are told?

The Earth has been making some pretty weird sounds?  Does it have indigestion?  Is it about to regurgitate the populace? 

I've always wondered if there was any relation between crop circles and cattle mutilations.  If we are being visited, what is the purpose of the circles, the mutilations and human abductions?

In 1962 David Twichell and his sister, along with his parents, watched a huge u.f.o. appear to rip an opening in the sky.  Later David would find out both he and his sister were taken.  This incident would lead David down a road of investigation.  For 6 years David has been hosting We Are Not Alone on a radio station in Detroit Michigan.  He has interviewed just about everyone in the u.f.o. realm.  When I have a ufo question I usually ask David.  Since I did a show about crop circles last week I thought I could get David's opinion.  He's always a pleasure to talk to, this week I welcome David Twichell from Trenton Michigan.    www.ufoimplications.com

In October of 2011 John Jorasz's son found 2 big crop circles in a field a couple of miles from his home in Wilson Michigan.  Local media was called and investigators showed up to take pictures.  As far as we know this is only the second time this has ever happened in Upper Michigan.  I heard about it at the time and I knew it was out towards where I live, but I didn't realize John's farm is less than a mile from my house, I go by it everyday on my way home.  At left is an actual picture of one of the crop circles.  So what causes this?  In most cases it's probably someone looking for attention.  However, and you will hear from two experts later in this show, there appears to be some circles, or designs, that are caused by something else.  Nature?  Alien beings?  Multidimentional beings? 

Robert Hulce and David Kayden live in England and have been investigating crop circles for 15 years and believe that 5% cannot be explained.  They even go as far as to say that they think someone may be trying to communicate with us. 

In this show you will hear my interview with John Jorasz, local farmer, and I also inserted part of an interview I found on the internet with Robert and David. 

What is it?  Nothing more than some kids fooling around?  Or is there something more to it?  Is someone trying to get us to wake up to a greater awareness or understanding?  If there is other life in the universe, I have to believe they has been visiting us for a very long time.  Some say they will not interfere with us, but they do try to assist us so that we may figure things out for ourselves.  To me that would the greatest way to interact with a species that may not evolved as you, if you have respect for that species you don't just step in and take over for their own good.  Whatever this may be it appears to be a positive thing, other than the loss of revenue from the crops.  It appears to be in no way connected to the cattle and horse mutilations that appear out west and in Canada.

More than 20 years ago I ran a mobile dj service, one of my first employees was Doug.  Over the years Doug and I worked together in radio.  Doug has been telling me about the building he lives in along with his room mate Alex.  Doug isn't necessarily convinced that the building is haunted, however Alex seems to have a different opinion.  To the left is a picture of a pretty good sized orb that Alex's girlfriend shot.  Alex showed me many pictures of orbs, some would argue it's dust.  Well, in two of the shots, the orb moved from one rafter to another.  It almost looks like there are a couple of orbs in this picture, I know that doesn't prove anything. 

Do you believe in ghosts?  Have you ever had a strange experience?  Have you ever had an object dissappear only to have it reappear?  Have you ever seen an apparition?  Have you ever heard loud pounding noises or heard a rap at the door and no one was there?  Most of us want to see an apparition, most will probably not see that.  However, most of us will miss some of the signs:  Light bulbs blowing, electronic devices failing, cold spots, pounding, dream visitations, your kids talking about invisible friends, animals acting strange. 

From what Doug told me I was under the impression that Alex may have a negative spirit harassing him.  My main objective was to make sure that wasn't the case and then it would be up to Alex to decide what to do with his visitors.  First, I contacted Dan Dunlop who has had a fair amount of experience in dealing with what some term negative energies.  Then we set up a time to meet with Alex and do a walk through.  The building we went to has 3 floors and a basement.  Doug and Alex live on the main floor, the top 2 floors need renovation.  When we arrived at the residence Doug was out of town but Alex was kind enough to let us in and show us around.  Alex showed us the many pictures of the orbs.  Some didn't come out as clean when I transferred them from his Facebook site.  I did a brief interview with Alex and Dan using my handy dandy "cheap" cassette (hi-tech?) recorder.  Actually the sound is pretty good on that archaic piece of recording equipment.  Then off we went to the basement.  Dan is pretty good at sensing spirits, so he would walk a bit and try to feel if there were any spirits present.  Initially Dan has said he felt at least 3 sprits before we even walked into the building.  When we made our way toward the front of the building we started asking questions.  Perhaps I could pick up an e.v.p. on my cheap cassette recorder, would that blow away all of those high tech ghost hunting shows?  I can't say that I watch those shows too much, they just don't appear to be real, how can they have spirit activity everywhere they go?  It usually doesn't work that way.  However, when we were in the basement all 3 of us heard someone walking above our heads.  There was no one else in the building.   I think it picked up a little bit on my recorder, you can listen to that part in the show.  Eventually we made our way to the third floor and then back to Alex's living room.  Dan felt there were no dark energies in the building, however he sensed 2 of the spirits were ready to cross over.  After a short meditation he helped them cross, Alex said he felt their energy leave.  In a way he was sad because he had connected with them, and yet he was happy for them to find their way.  Dan said he felt there were 3 more energies in the building and asked Alex if he wanted them out.  These beings would not cross over, they would just be sent packing to some other location.  Alex didn't want them to go, I can only guess that he has a connection with them.  Alex has been alone in this building for quite a while recovering from an ongoing illness, so I can see why he might want to have some company.  Furthermore, the way I look at it, all beings have a right to be and if they're not bothering me I'd probably let them be as well. 

Next week I talk to a local farmer who had 2 crop circles in his corn last October.  The weird part, he lives less than a mile from my house!
