    Merry Lewis

    Meriwether Lewis Episode 16 Merry Lewis: We have here a man who was an American explorer, soldier, free mason and politician. He led one of the most important exploration teams in US history and was rewarded for a job well done. While on his way to get more funding for his new position as Governor, he died mysteriously at a small inn named Grinder's Stand 70 miles (110km) southwest of Nashville, Tennessee. Was it suicide? Disease? Robbery? A crime of passion? Or was he assassinated for “knowing too much”?

    (The Phoenix Lights) Episode 17 The City of Blinding Lights: There were thousands of eyewitnesses that saw massive bright lights in a V shape slowly traveling from Henderson, NV to Southern Phoenix then head slowly west to disappear over the Estrella mountain range.

    Documented Ghost Stories

    Episode 21 Documented Ghost Cases: What is a ghost? Most would say that it is a spirit or someone's spirit, I believe. Visitation of a lost loved one is something only a few can claim has happened to them and when it does, they almost never refer that visitation as a ghost or a haunting. So what is a ghost exactly? Is it residual energy from a person's life force after they pass? A lost soul? A disembodied consciousness? I believe that it is a personal perspective because what one person would view as a lost loved one, another would see as nothing more than a ghost.

    Remembering Michele

    (Michelle Remembers) Episode 26 Remembering Michelle: This unpopular book is called "The Flagship of the Satanic Panic". It was called a bestseller when it wasn't. Claims that it single-handedly started a "wildfire" of false claims of satanic activities back in the 1980s, when it really didn't gain popularity until almost ten years after it was published. It is referred to as a "debunked" or "disputed" book when those smoking gun claims fall very short of proving anything of the sort. Why then, bother to make all of these claims when they are false? Join us, as we uncover this possible segue into evidence that the entire "Satanic Panic" might be a false narrative.
