The pursuit of immortality is discussed from the top of the show following some intriguing transhumanism articles along with a new conference on suspended animation.

This is completely bizarre, I was playing “the great silkie of sule skerry” on Friday and was thinking to myself “this story would be a great one for mysterious universe to cover” …then suddenly you guys bring up silkies.

About your Octo garbage. Jeeez, talk about the kettle callin the pot black. the ‘education’ system is BLAMING the internet for dumbing down children? LOL errrr no. I suggest these people check out about their Education system itself to really know the far older ENFORCED institution for the dumbing down of millions of kids. Now hmmm where do they start to LOOK for this INFORMATION…? Oh, I know, yeah, the Internet–tall them to Google John Taylor Gatto, and they will see videos, they will read articles, they can read his online book. And while they are about it hows about instead of taking the piss outta their captive students with silly tests that make the captives teachers look ‘smart’ to have the kids look at the ‘EDUCATION’ system they are forced to attend. What you say school people?

Hi, Guys–two things:
1) talking about silkies, have you seen the movie “The Secret of Roan Inish”? It’s all about silkies.
2) I have been listening to an audiobook version of Angelology by Danielle Trussoni, about Nephilims trying to take over the world. One of the varieties of angels, which are more devilish in nature, have red wings and are reptilian-like. Then I switch over to your Episode 304 talking about a woman who has seen winged reptilian-like creatures scaling up mountains. Hmmm! They live among us? Hope not–these guys are bad news!
