I loved the segment on controlled remote viewing in the Plus section! Lyn Buchanan is an interesting guy. I don't want to “advertise” another podcast here, so if this is not appropriate you don't have to post this comment, but there is a great interview with him in the October 2006 episode of the podcast “Theatre of the Mind” with Kelly Howell. He is a great interviewee. Maybe you should try to get him for your show.

I work in the Cleveland area. Saw those Cleveland “UFOs”, looked more like ultralights with a row of lights on their leading edges. But for Cleveland, its still pretty exciting!

Sigh….there was a time long ago when Michael Cohen would offer noteworthy information. But, for the last year or so, his assertions have become embarrassing. This sensationalism may be needed to promote his site but, frankly, his credibility has totally crashed to the point where he is rarely quoted by paranormal webmaster and bloggers.

Hey guys you've been talking about the nightmare inducing sounds for a few podcasts now, I was just wondering where I would be able to find those I would love to test it out so much..as far as I can remember I have never in my life had a nightmare, it's an experience I want to try out.

You mention persons who have ringing ears or headaches before an earthquake or volcanic eruption somewhere on earth. Unfortunately this is very vague. You may want to look at http://earthquake.usgs.gov/learn/faq/?categoryI… for earthquake statistics. Even magnitude 4 quake can cause extensive damage and loss of life. The USGS statistics say that quakes of magnitude 5 – 5.9 occur 1319 times annually (the page does not mention what kind of average this is, or is this some sample year). Thus, without sufficient detail in the earthquake prediction, there is very little chance of reliably saying which prediction is linked with which quake.
The issue is definitely worth exploring, I think. Perhaps we'll find that the predictions relate to really major quakes of which there is only a score or so annually.

Loved the segment on skyshipsovercashiers.com

I worked at PARI for two years (where the alleged underground base is) near Cashiers, NC. I lived there over the summers on the campus and gave lectures on astronomy and astrophysics to the high school students we brought in. Even though I saw a few UFOs while living in Western NC I promise there is no underground base at PARI.

Saga of Seven Suns is fantastic, Ben. Keep reading (or listening). If you like those you might also like Kevin Anderson's Dune novels he wrote with Brian Herbert. One of my favorite series.

I can see the song listings, but for the life of me I can't seem to track down the track used at 59:40 of this podcast. I think it's Flight Facilities – Crave You ft. Giselle as it's the only one I can't seem to locate, can someone confirm for me please?

Just click the link for the song http://toomanysebastians.blogspot.com/2010/03/f… scroll down past the bar graph, and there it is.

Is the song before the interview with Colleen El Toro, by Bonobo the 30 second clip on iTunes does not sound the same. I would really like to know what it is. I have bought many albums from hearing the music on here. Any help would be appreciated.

OMG! The bulb in our fridge blew this weekend too…and we were catching up on the past MUs, including the one where Aaron tried to kill Ben's refrigerator bulb. (cue Twilight Zone music…)

While I do not claim any special knowledge about PARI (The 'new' Area 51) I was curious and decided to look it up on Google Earth. I find it interesting that the majority of the campus is blacked out. At first it looks like the shadow of a cloud, however, if you look at other clouds to the northwest of the campus, you can see how close their shadow is to cloud itself. Where is the cloud over PARI? Just thought it was interesting. Check for yourself, the coordinates are 35 degrees 12' North, 82 degrees 55' 30″ West.

WOO HOO!!! Really the pryamid?? I thought Pink Floyd was going to appear as ghostly apparitions from a rainbow beam after 10 seconds of watching! hahaha

Did anyone else hear that sort of scream like noise during the interview??? She’s talking about how the stories are embellished, you might get goosebumps etc…. when she says “between the hosts and the guests” there is an… well, it sounds like a woman screaming. I’m not sure if it’s a chair being moved or some sort of door opening. But just the sound of it is a little unnerving. Ben and Aaron, have you two checked in to this? or do you recall anyone moving anything around at that time? Just thought I might bring this up! Cheers! GG, Florida USA
