35.22 - MU Podcast - UFO Reflections | Abductions
UFOs capture our attention like nothing else can as we hear stories of these flying wonders and contemplate their origins, missions, and purposes. Some captivate more than others, literally capturing unsuspecting citizens to be brought aboard these enigmas for more baffling experiences. Philip Mantle is an outstanding researcher, author, and firsthand witness to the world of the freaky woo-woo.His new book, “UFO Reflections,” boasts a wide variety of said “woo” and offers us all greater insights into this highly strange phenomenon. In our Plus+ extension, we visit an MIT computer scientist and game designer Rizwan Virk in his book The Simulation Hypothesis as he takes a swing at one of the wildest ideas floating around modern culture: what if reality itself is basically a massively multiplayer simulation? He tries to connect ancient mystical ideas with modern computational thinking. Whether he’s onto something profound or just brilliantly overthinking Zelda, this one opens up a ton of questions about consciousness, perception, and what this place actually is.

35.21 - MU Podcast - The Golden Wave
Welcome back to MU! This week we look into Children of the New Earth by Jill M. Jackson, a wild blend of Starseed mythology, psychic children, spiritual evolution, and humanity’s technological crossroads. From Indigo children to the "Solar Rays", we go through the variety of children appearing with the apparent mission of healing the earth and ushering us into the next age of human ascension! Buckle up for this one, it's a wild ride! Did you know that there are shapeshifters and mighty morphers are all around you? Offering oodles of fun questions like, what defines the definition of something? Is it the way it appears? What if looks are not what they seem and the thing you are looking at, so certain of its form, is not that at all, but an imposter out to bewilder the bewilderable? From mimic jellyfish to giant flying jellyfish, who’s to say what anyone is really seeing?

35.20 - MU Podcast - Many Mini Mysteries - Making a big deal of the small stuff
Welcome to Mysterious Universe Season 35 episode 20!This realm boasts a massive amount of tiny happenings. Many Mini Mysteries can be found to surround you in every wee way within every micro moment of every diminutive day. Satisfying the appetite for the petite. We're talking about making a big deal out of the small stuff with a mini flying saucer invasion of tiny ray-gun-toting one-armed aliens appearing to children in Malaysia and more Mini Mysteries. In our Plus+ extension, we dive into one of the strangest blind spots in human nature: the way intelligent people become trapped inside their own certainty. Using everything from scientific fraud and broken paradigms to toxic marriages, we explore how ego, ideology, and institutional momentum can distort reality itself. The deeper you get into it, the harder it becomes to tell where honest inquiry ends and psychological self-defense begins.

35.19 - MU Podcast - The Inner Signal
Welcome back! This week we continue from last week's extension with Colin Wilson's The Occult, and his interesting perspective on what these heightened states are, how they are achieved and maintained, as well as some notable characters associated with the topic. We also question why this area of research is so rife with charlatans and fakes? As always, make of this what you will, but Wilson really makes a great case for all of it. Welcome to your Plus+ Extension, and thank you for joining us on Plus+! This is a weird, wild realm we have here, riddled with strange happenings in the sky. High strangeness is intimately interwoven with everyday-ness. Today, we examine a smattering of seemingly unconnected events, accounts, and perspectives of some of the most bizarre encounters by some day-to-day dwelling, normal folks just living out their lives and then, suddenly…Whammmy, they are visited by the freaky, and it woos them into further investigation.

35.18 - MU Podcast - From the Mundane to the Magnificent
On this episode we are continuing our mind-blowing adventure with Vera Stanley Alder’s “From the Mundane to the Magnificent”. Today, friends, we discover the inner workings of nature itself with a gander at the logistics of Fairyland before a view of human beings in various mental and emotional states as we gain greater insight into the “insane”. For our Plus+ extension we begin Colin Wilson’s The Occult, exploring his argument that the real mystery isn’t ghosts or magic, it’s human consciousness itself. From primitive shamans to the bombastic Crowley types, we go over the idea that people have always brushed up against deeper layers of awareness, but just never quite learned how to control them. At its base, Wilson tries to argue that this is less about the supernatural and more about whether we’re living at a fraction of our actual potential.

35.17 - MU Podcast - Where Science Meets Spirit
This week we’re continuing down the Sheldrake path with The Physics of Angels by Matthew Fox and Rupert Sheldrake, where a theologian and a scientist try to make sense of angels in a modern context. Pulling from figures like Aquinas and Hildegard, we explore whether these “beings” might actually point to forms of intelligence or organization we still don’t fully understand. Whether you buy it or not, it’s a solid look at how our view of reality might be a lot more limited than we think. Welcome to this banger Plus+ Extension! The long awaited uber saga that is From the Mundane to the Magnificent is at hand! This remarkably fun story is very much an epic tale loaded with insights that will take your mind off of the nonsense found littered about this so called “reality”. Part one offers us instructions for leaving the restrictive body for astral exploration, a new look at the Earth and solar system only to bring it all home by shrinking to the size of an atom, and stopping to have a chin wag with a cell offering their interpretation of life from their perspective. Thank you for being on Plus+ with us! Sit back and enjoy a fresh perspective that could change everything about your Youniverse and unlock hidden potential within yourcelf.

35.16 - MU Podcast - The New Calendar
Welcome to Mysterious Universe Season 35 Episode 16! What do you know of how the calendar was created? Hundreds of specialized or regional calendars have existed throughout history, major calendar systems are often grouped into solar, lunar, and lunisolar types, with six principal systems commonly recognized today. Tom Sherman has sorted out the wishy-washy Gregorian and offers the realm something better, A New Calendar. Perhaps it’s time we examine the time we keep? In our Plus+ extension, we dive back into some wild NDE stories! From a 1-year-old memory of being drowned in a bathtub, to an ex-military man experiencing his version of heaven, all the way to capping it off with a terrifying story of a young man who had direct contact with what he describes as hell! These stories are always interesting and really challenge (or maybe give hope to) the endless debate over what happens when we exit this mortal coil.

35.15 - MU Podcast - The Lunar Question
Was the Moon just a byproduct of planetary chaos, or does the Earth–Moon system show signs of deeper structure? In this episode, we dig into Who Built the Moon? by Christopher Knight and Alan Butler, exploring the strange mix of astronomy, ancient measurement systems, and numerical relationships that led the authors to question whether our nearest celestial neighbor might be more unusual than we’ve been taught. Welcome to your Plus+ extension as we wrap up this “Salts of Salvation Saga Series” with a look at each of the salts in association with you and your loved one's zodiac sign, and some remedies for the deficiencies found in those signs as given at birth. There is a bit of a "gross wording warning" for the squeamish as some of this may be perceived as blasphemous and graphic due to the honest nature of the information. Who Built the Moon?
