Art Bell interviews Dr. Allan Botkin, a clinical psychologist who discovered that a modified form of eye movement desensitization and reprocessing can reliably induce after-death communication experiences in grieving patients. Botkin explains that by targeting the core sadness underlying grief rather than surface emotions like anger or guilt, and then applying rhythmic eye movement, he achieves a 98% success rate in producing ADC experiences across thousands of patients.Botkin recounts his first case, a Vietnam veteran haunted by the death of an orphaned Vietnamese girl killed by sniper fire. During treatment, the patient reported seeing the girl as a grown woman surrounded by white light, expressing gratitude and love. The experience resolved decades of grief and guilt, and follow-up years later confirmed lasting healing. A former patient named Jimmy calls in to describe his own session, where he communicated with four Marines killed by mines and received information about a hidden tunnel entrance he had never known existed.Botkin addresses skepticism by noting that an intern who simultaneously performed the eye movement technique during a session independently experienced the same ADC as the patient, suggesting an objective phenomenon rather than hallucination. He observes that even deceased individuals described as abusive in life consistently appear apologetic, as though transformed by a life review process.

Art Bell speaks with Dr. Paul Moller, inventor of the M400 Skycar, a vertical takeoff and landing vehicle designed to combine the capabilities of helicopters and airplanes at automobile-level costs. Moller describes a four-passenger craft that fits in a single-car garage, flies at 325 miles per hour, reaches altitudes of 25,000 feet, and achieves a range of 750 miles on alcohol fuel. The vehicle relies on 25 onboard microprocessors running 30,000 lines of redundant code to maintain stability and enable fully automated flight.Moller explains that upcoming test flights over a purpose-built lake will demonstrate untethered vertical takeoff with a pilot aboard. He envisions a future where virtual highways in the sky, supported by GPS and satellite augmentation systems, allow ordinary people to travel point-to-point without pilot training. The Skycar uses Wankel rotary engines chosen for their power density and low cost, and Moller notes that engine orders alone total nearly a billion dollars in letters of intent.Art also addresses the catastrophic Southern California wildfires burning across multiple counties, with callers from Fontana, Vista, San Diego, and Claremont describing evacuations, closed airports, and walls of flame stretching to the horizon. Several callers and a police commissioner speculate that many of the fires may have been deliberately set near major freeway access points.

Art Bell opens with psychic Sean David Morton, who shares predictions about Osama bin Laden's alleged death, potential threats to the president, a biological attack on U.S. soil, the eruption of Mount Rainier by 2005, and economic forecasts drawn from both his intuitive work and Bible Code research. Morton also discusses the Harmonic Concordance planetary alignment and its potential spiritual significance.Theoretical physicist Dr. Michio Kaku then joins to discuss breakthroughs from the WMAP satellite, which has established the age of the universe at 13.7 billion years with remarkable precision. He explains that only 4% of the universe consists of visible atoms, while 23% is dark matter and 73% is dark energy, the mysterious antigravity force accelerating cosmic expansion. Kaku describes how the universe faces an eventual Big Freeze as stars exhaust their fuel and galaxies drift apart beyond detection.The conversation turns to hypernovas, the most powerful explosions in the universe, and their potential to obliterate life across entire galactic sectors. Kaku discusses Einstein's unfinished quest for a unified theory, the promise of string theory operating in 10 or 11 dimensions, and the possibility that parallel universes may one day offer an escape route for intelligent life facing cosmic extinction.

Art Bell welcomes Brendan Cook and Barbara McBeath of the Ghost Investigators Society to present a collection of electronic voice phenomena recordings captured at two locations: a funeral director's home and the historic Rawlins prison in Wyoming. The investigators use both analog tape recorders and digital devices with external microphones to document voices they believe belong to the dead.Among the most striking recordings is a woman's voice saying "come enjoy the light," a child responding "I'm three" before being asked his age, and a male voice declaring "not alive" in response to the question "is anyone in here?" At the Rawlins prison, a young woman's voice repeats Brendan's name in an intimate tone, and another voice identifies prisoners as the ones subjected to whipping at the old frontier facility. The investigators also discuss the disturbing history of inmate Andrew Pixley, whose execution cell reportedly produced children's voices.Art examines what these recordings suggest about consciousness after death, including whether spirits retain personality, humor, and emotional bonds. The investigators share their theory that many ghosts have not yet reached a final destination and may not fully realize they have died.

Art Bell welcomes author and ham radio operator Harry Helms to discuss the shadow government and the world of clandestine radio. Helms reveals the frequencies used by FEMA's Mount Weather emergency facility, explains how CIA number stations transmit coded messages worldwide using one-time pad encryption, and describes the mysterious signal traced to the Nevada Test Site that vanished moments before stations coordinated to locate it.Major Ed Dames then joins to present his latest remote viewing projects. He claims an extraterrestrial agency has been collecting petroleum products from Earth for thousands of years and outlines a plan to locate and interdict their primary collection point in North America in hopes of inducing contact. Dames also describes China's most secret weapons program, which he says reveals the extent of their ambitions to become the dominant world power.Art presses Dames on the reliability of remote viewing predictions and the nature of the extraterrestrial presence. Dames shares details of scientific fieldwork conducted in New Mexico using specialized instruments and discusses his belief that sentient machines operating from an underground base on Mars are responsible for many reported UFO encounters on Earth.

Art Bell celebrates his return to WABC in New York City and shares news items ranging from a well-preserved furry limb found in Siberian permafrost that may belong to a Yeti, to mysterious gelatin-like material appearing in an Oregon family's yard, to scientists determining the universe is finite and shaped like a soccer ball. He also offers personal reflections on Rush Limbaugh's painkiller addiction and the reality of chronic back pain.Television producer and adventurer Robert Miles describes an extraordinary experience that began one morning aboard his boat in Honolulu. A woman materialized in his stateroom surrounded by dazzling colors and vibrating energy, instructing him to imagine himself at LaGuardia Airport. He found himself instantly transported there, boarded a circular craft, and took a brief flight during which he watched Earth shrink to the size of a dime through a porthole window.At a briefing conducted by Federation commanders named Regent Vars and Exeus, Miles learned that Earth serves as a prison planet where deposed leaders from across the galaxy have been banished. He was shown images of ancient civilizations including Atlantis and Lemuria and told that wars on Earth target populations rather than leaders, perpetuating cycles of control. Miles says the experience permanently altered his worldview and inspired his book Safe Space.

Dr. Roger Leir recounts the years-long investigation of a mysterious claw found embedded in a towel placed to capture alien footprints. Initial DNA analysis returned non-terrestrial results, but further RNA testing ultimately identified it as a slug from New Zealand. Leir uses the story to illustrate proper scientific methodology in phenomenological research and discusses his surgical removal of suspected alien implants that emit electromagnetic fields and contain anomalous metallic compositions.Richard C. Hoagland presents a new pre-dawn infrared image of the Face on Mars taken by the Mars Odyssey spacecraft. He argues the eastern side of the Face shows over 99 percent reflectivity, behaving like a specular mirror rather than natural rock, while surrounding terrain reflects only 7 to 15 percent of light. Hoagland contends this supports his long-held theory that the structure contains manufactured materials and that the eastern side was protected from erosion.Mike Heiser rounds out the program previewing the upcoming God, Man, and ET conference at the University of Wisconsin. He and Hoagland debate whether mainstream theology could accommodate a genuine extraterrestrial reality, with Heiser arguing that medieval theologians already entertained the possibility of other inhabited worlds while acknowledging the explosive implications of discovering human origins tied to Mars.

Art Bell covers a string of current events including a deadly bombing in Israel, the California recall election, Roy Horn's tiger attack in Las Vegas, and Rush Limbaugh's public admission of prescription painkiller addiction. Art shares his own experience with severe back pain and defends Limbaugh against what he sees as a media feeding frenzy, drawing from his personal understanding of how intractable pain leads to dependency.Dr. Ronald Klatz, founder and president of the American Academy of Anti-Aging Medicine, joins to discuss why humans age and what can be done about it. He explains how DNA deterioration, telomere shortening, and free radical damage drive the aging process, and describes current therapies including hormone replacement, nutritional supplementation, and emerging drugs like an ACE inhibitor being tested as a potential anti-death compound. Klatz reports that 50 percent of baby boomers alive today may reach their 100th birthday.The discussion ventures into speculative territory as Klatz describes head transplant technology tested in monkeys, the possibility of growing headless clone bodies for organ harvesting, and spinal cord repair research that could help Christopher Reeve walk again. He estimates that within 30 years, science may halt aging at around age 55, making practical immortality a theoretical possibility.

Art Bell reports on breaking news including Italy's nationwide blackout blamed on a single fallen tree, the fracturing of the Arctic's Ward Hunt ice shelf, and a remarkable quote from Defense Secretary William Cohen about electromagnetic weapons capable of altering climate and triggering earthquakes remotely. Australia's worsening drought linked to ozone depletion and a shrinking polar vortex also draws attention.Author Douglas Mulhall joins from the Bahamas to explain how nanotechnology is already transforming everyday life through stain-resistant fabrics, longer-lasting tennis balls, and invisible zinc oxide sunscreens. He describes how carbon nanotubes, with 30 times the tensile strength of steel, have made a space elevator feasible at a fraction of current launch costs. Mulhall reveals that manufactured diamonds indistinguishable from mined stones are now being produced cheaply, promising computing speeds 100 times faster than silicon processors.The conversation turns to nanomedicine, where gold nanotubes coated with antibodies already perform rapid blood diagnostics. Mulhall discusses the discovery of nanobacteria, a mysterious pathogen smaller than any known bacterium that forms calcium shells and may trigger heart disease, and explains how existing drugs like tetracycline can destroy it.

Art Bell opens the program with Jose Escamilla to examine new photographic evidence challenging the existence of rods, the mysterious elongated objects Jose has filmed for years. A website called UFO Theater presents compelling images suggesting rods may be insects captured at low shutter speeds, and Jose concedes the evidence is "pretty damning" while defending his high-shutter-speed protocol results.In the second half, Art welcomes abduction researchers Bud Hopkins and Dr. David Jacobs for a wide-ranging discussion on alien-human hybridization. Hopkins introduces his new book Sight Unseen, detailing cases of transgenic beings who appear fully human yet possess telepathic abilities and serve as intermediaries in the abduction process. Jacobs describes a systematic reproductive program involving sperm and egg harvesting, forced breastfeeding of hybrid infants, and staged emotional tests conducted on abductees.The researchers discuss late-stage hybrids who may already be living among humans, holding jobs and forming relationships while remaining conflicted about their loyalties. Jacobs warns that the evidence points toward an integration program whose ultimate purpose remains unclear, and that conscious memories of abductions are almost always distorted without careful hypnotic investigation.

Art Bell opens with Whitley Strieber for a discussion on the surge in UFO activity coinciding with Mars at its closest approach to Earth in recorded history. Strieber describes a detailed abduction case from British Columbia involving two women who encountered five sets of glowing green eyes belonging to gray beings on a roadside, followed by 35 minutes of missing time and physical injuries including a radiation-like burn. He notes that multiple independent witnesses reported UFOs in the same region that night.In the second half, Art welcomes Dr. Evelyn Paglini, a self-described Tuscany witch from a centuries-old lineage of occult practitioners. She explains that magic is a natural science rooted in the manipulation of energy and vibration, and that both protective and offensive applications are real and effective regardless of whether the target believes in them. Paglini describes using imitative magic with effigy candles and essential oils to reverse a con artist's actions, resulting in his arrest months later.Paglini walks listeners through a love attraction ritual involving consecrated image candles, essential oils, and focused visualization, while warning that forcing someone against their will carries serious karmic consequences. She reveals that magic is actively used in Hollywood and corporate boardrooms, and claims that powerful curses have been placed on certain celebrities, affecting their relationships and personal lives.

Art Bell returns to weekend broadcasting and explains how a call from KFI's Robin Bertolucci led to his comeback on the full network. He shares news about a magnetar burst from 45,000 light years away that overwhelmed solar X-ray levels, a star caught swallowing three planets, and a genetics professor at Oxford warning that the human Y chromosome is deteriorating toward eventual extinction in roughly 125,000 years.Physicist James McCanney joins to present his theory that Earth's weather is primarily driven by electrical currents from the ionosphere rather than solar light heating the surface. He argues that jet streams are bands of ions and electrons powered by the outer magnetic field, and that hurricanes draw their enormous energy from vertical electrical batteries formed by solar wind interactions. McCanney contends that traditional meteorology cannot account for the energy contained in major storms through conventional thermodynamic calculations alone.McCanney makes a striking claim that the 2003 Northeast blackout was caused by a Tesla coil experiment at an underground base near Kanata, Canada, which accidentally tunneled through the atmosphere to the ionosphere and dumped roughly 1,000 megawatts of uncontrolled power into the grid. He proposes that hurricanes could be weakened by deploying grounded tethered balloons or laser beams to drain their electrical energy before landfall.

Art Bell guest hosts and opens with Marshall Masters, a former CNN producer who discusses a 1995 crop circle formation that he believes encodes a prediction for September 6th. Masters presents a chronological analysis linking recurring crop circle glyphs to a communication protocol, suggesting the formations contain headers and messages from an extraterrestrial source. He alleges that the 2003 crop circle season in England was deliberately shut down to prevent a significant message from being delivered.Masters points to a photograph from the SOHO satellite showing an unidentified winged object near Venus, claiming the next day's imagery was edited to remove it. He connects this to the Tichborn formation's apparent mapping of inner solar system positions and speculates that government forces used military helicopters to suppress crop circle researchers and prevent further contact events in British fields.The second half features open lines on a contact theme, with callers sharing UFO sightings and alleged encounters from Sacramento to San Francisco. One caller describes signaling craft on a beach and receiving telepathic communication, while others report unusual lights and objects across the United States. Art reads listener jokes, discusses Mel's Hole, and fields questions on topics ranging from Tesla's wireless energy theories to the expanding universe.

Art Bell returns as guest host and opens with reflections on extreme weather sweeping the globe, from record floods in Las Vegas to unprecedented heat deaths in Europe. He reviews reports from the World Meteorological Organization warning that worldwide weather has gone haywire, and shares news about Atlantic Ocean temperatures dropping suddenly along the U.S. East Coast during summer months.Author Craig Winn joins to recount his journey into Palestinian-controlled territory, where he met face to face with members of Al-Qaeda, Hamas, and the Aqsa Martyrs Brigade at gunpoint. After crossing no man's land with only a pen and paper, Winn spent six hours interviewing terrorists who quoted directly from Islamic scripture to justify their violence. He argues that their citations were accurate and in context, contradicting the mainstream narrative that terrorism represents a perversion of Islam.Winn contends that the vast majority of Muslims worldwide do not know their own scriptures, and that proper exposure to those texts would cause most to leave the faith rather than radicalize. He proposes that cutting off oil revenue to kingdoms that fund extremist mosques and schools would be more effective than military occupation, and criticizes the decision to invade Iraq as fundamentally misguided.

Art Bell fills in for George Noory and welcomes Linda Moulton Howe for a report on the 2003 crop circle season, which has seen formations in over 23 countries. Linda details an extraordinary photograph from Montenegro, Italy, showing a sphere of light sending a beam into a field, captured by a teenager's cell phone camera. Witnesses in Belgium and Germany also report strange humming sounds and lights associated with new formations.In the second half, Art speaks with Canadian scientist John Hutchison about the Hutchison Effect, a phenomenon involving the levitation of heavy objects, the jellification of metals, and apparent matter transmutation. Hutchison describes how his experiments with Tesla coils, RF generators, and electrostatic fields accidentally produced these effects, including floating cannonballs, metal bars twisting into knots, and objects embedding within solid materials. His lab was seized by the Canadian government after he declined a military contract.Hutchison also discusses his zero-point energy power cells, small devices that produce a steady voltage indefinitely using ground-up metals and minerals charged with direct current. He connects his work to the Philadelphia Experiment, noting similarities in the electromagnetic equipment used, and shares his belief that forgotten technologies from the early days of radio hold keys to understanding free energy.

Art Bell opens with news that his death was falsely reported online by Nancy Lieder's website, a story his local paper confirmed as bogus after calling him at home. He provides updates on his dual-loop antenna project, now featuring a buried ground mesh, and notes the Supreme Court striking down laws against private sexual conduct and the death of Senator Strom Thurmond at 100.Stan Dayo joins first to recount a chance encounter at a Colorado bookstore with a retired Army Intelligence analyst. The man claimed the military ran war-game scenarios on American soil involving tsunamis, coastal subsidence, and catastrophic weather, predicting casualty figures ranging from 100,000 to 75 percent of the West Coast population. He told Stan that FEMA's recommendation of two to three days of supplies was inadequate and that six months would be the minimum. The man also referenced ancient alien stargates, satellite imagery of structures beneath Antarctic ice, and rising sea levels of 20 to 200 feet.Major Ed Dames follows with remote viewing assessments. He stands by his prediction that North Korea will be the first nation to use a nuclear weapon in anger, now reporting two warheads mounted on missiles. He predicts avian-borne diseases will cause catastrophic economic damage beginning that summer, and warns that prion diseases will eventually make cattle milk unsafe. Art presses Dames on timeline methodology, and Dames describes a new protocol using significant preceding events as markers.

Art Bell hosts a Friday night open lines show and dedicates one phone line exclusively to callers who claim to have traveled in time. He opens with sharp commentary on the Iraq war, noting that a top Marine general has publicly declared U.S. intelligence was "simply wrong" about chemical weapons, and that no weapons of mass destruction have been found. Art also updates listeners on his anomalous antenna project and the intense solar activity bombarding Earth during Cycle 23.Callers range from a self-described time traveler named Steve who claims an entity guided him through the stars nightly for 52 years, allowing him to profit 121 percent in the stock market, to a woman named Nunchie who describes a near-death experience where she met lines of every person who ever lived. A caller named Cross reports being taken to the year 2045 by an individual named Malachi, describing a world without technology where humans communicate telepathically after contact with a higher being.Other callers discuss shadow people visible to horses, the Vatican Observatory's true purpose, an old eight-millimeter film that triggered a time-displacement experience, and the mysterious DC voltage on Art's giant antenna. A retired electrical engineer explains that similar voltage phenomena were observed at military low-frequency transmitter sites during World War II, pointing toward atmospheric energy collection on a grand scale.

Art Bell opens with personal updates on his recovery from back problems and his massive dual-loop ham radio antenna project in Pahrump, Nevada. The antenna produces an unexplained 400 volts of mixed AC and DC current and delivers signal gains of 20 to 25 decibels that defy conventional physics. Art also discusses the acceleration of what he calls "the quickening," pointing to record tornado activity, unusual solar flares during Cycle 23, and the ongoing SARS outbreak as evidence of intensifying global change.Oxford astrophysicist Adair Butchins joins from London to discuss his book "The Numinous Legacy," which examines how modern cosmology challenges the three great monotheistic religions. Butchins outlines the Copernican principle of mediocrity, arguing that an infinite universe with countless opportunities for life undermines the idea of humanity as uniquely chosen. He presents both the design argument for God and the many-worlds counter-argument, comparing the fine-tuned universe to a gambler hitting the jackpot among infinite possibilities.Art pushes Butchins to reveal his personal beliefs. Butchins ultimately suggests that if a God exists, it is likely transcendent and indifferent to the universe, more aligned with Aristotle's conception than the interventionist deity of organized religion. He argues that consciousness may arise from a parallel universe that intersects the physical world, carrying with it universal values of ethics and mathematics.

Art Bell returns to guest host and opens with a detailed report from Linda Moulton Howe on the emerging SARS crisis. Scientists have confirmed a new coronavirus is responsible, and Russian experts publicly speculate the virus could be man-made. Linda interviews doctors from Toronto to Rotterdam who describe the disease spreading through close contact, respiratory droplets, and now potentially through urine and feces. A North Carolina woman nearly dies from SARS despite never traveling to Asia, and her hospital allegedly conceals the diagnosis to avoid publicity.In the second half, Art welcomes best-selling novelist and Wired contributing editor Wil McCarthy to discuss his book "Hacking Matter." McCarthy explains how quantum dots can trap electrons to create artificial atoms, effectively producing programmable matter that could change its color, conductivity, and thermal properties with the flip of a switch. He describes programmable houses with walls that become windows, ceilings that simulate sunlight, and solar cells reaching 50 percent efficiency.Art presses McCarthy on the dangers of such technology, drawing parallels to computer viruses and hacking. McCarthy acknowledges that malicious actors could theoretically reprogram materials in buildings or embed hidden sensors, but argues the technology carries less catastrophic risk than self-replicating nanotechnology.

Art Bell broadcasts his final regular show on New Year's Eve, bidding farewell to over a decade of late-night radio. He takes time to acknowledge his support staff in the Medford, Oregon office, many of whom are losing their jobs as operations shift to Los Angeles. Crystal Gayle calls in to wish him well and they reflect on the song she wrote inspired by the program.The evening centers on the annual predictions tradition, with Art reviewing 123 predictions made for 2002 from the Bell family vault. Listeners score hits on topics ranging from cloning advances to increased UFO sightings, while predictions about Planet X and the Pope's passing receive a definitive "bonk." Callers from around the world phone in their forecasts for 2003, including predictions of a manned Mars mission, Korean unification, and gold reaching $400.Between predictions, Art fields calls from places as far-flung as Seoul, Moscow, and Busan. Peter Davenport of the National UFO Reporting Center offers warm tribute to Art's contributions to ufology. Throughout the broadcast, Art reminds listeners of the artbell.com website closing and the commemorative CD collection available for a final few hours.

Art Bell opens with Richard C. Hoagland for a reflective conversation covering warming across the entire solar system and the symbolic connections between ancient Babylon and the modern push for war with Iraq. Hoagland notes that Baghdad sits on Sumerian ruins and that Saddam Hussein considers himself the reincarnation of Nebuchadnezzar, suggesting ritual motivations behind U.S. foreign policy.George Lutz, the man whose family lived the real Amityville Horror, then joins for an interview Art had sought for his entire career. Lutz describes purchasing the Dutch Colonial home at 112 Ocean Avenue for $80,000, knowing about the DeFeo murders but believing his family could handle it. He details Father Ray Pecoraro's house blessing and the priest's discomfort in the upstairs bedroom where the boys had been killed.Psychic investigator Mary Pascarella calls in to describe her encounters with pure evil inside the home. Lutz confirms experiencing his wife levitating from the bed, Kathy transforming into an elderly woman, mysterious gelatin trails between rooms, persistent flies, black drips from old keyholes, and phantom footsteps. He reveals using humor as a defense against dark intrusive thoughts, confirming that the house attempted to influence him toward violence just as it had Ronald DeFeo.

Art Bell presents a special holiday rebroadcast compiling Mel Waters segments from January 29 and December 20, 2002. The program traces the full saga of Mel's Hole from its origins on Mel's property near Ellensburg, Washington, where he lowered over 80,000 feet of fishing line without hitting bottom, through the government seizure of his land under a fabricated plane crash story and his subsequent exile to Australia on a $250,000 monthly lease.Mel recounts his mysterious abduction in late 1999, waking up beaten and toothless in a San Francisco alley twelve days later with his fortune gone. He reveals the significance of a 1943 Roosevelt dime found on the property, minted before Roosevelt's death with an impossible "B" mint mark, and directs listeners to the TerraServer satellite imagery showing his Washington property blotted out with white squares.The compilation continues with the discovery of the Nevada hole, its metal-lined interior, and the extraordinary ice experiments. Mel describes how a sheep lowered into the hole was retrieved dead, containing a tumor-like mass that when cut open revealed a living creature resembling a baby seal with disturbingly human eyes. The creature later communicated with the Basque through radio frequencies, warning about the dangers of the burning ice.

Art Bell welcomes a surprise visit from Mel Waters, who dispels rumors of his death and provides an extensive update on a second bottomless hole discovered in Nevada. Mel describes how Basque shepherds led him to the site, which features a nine-foot diameter opening surrounded by a mysterious metal collar. He recounts lowering a bucket of ice into the hole and retrieving cubes that were not cold, would not melt, and ignited when placed on a fire, burning continuously for months.The burning ice eventually absorbed all moisture from a wooden cabin, causing it to collapse into dust. A government team arrived with multiple cranes to extract the impossibly heavy wood stove containing the still-burning ice. Mel also reveals that seal-like creatures with human eyes, born from a sheep lowered into the hole, now communicate with the Basque through a boombox radio, warning that the ice could destroy the world through greedy and undisciplined use.Major Ed Dames follows with discussions of biological warfare threats, his background as a biowarfare case officer, and remote viewing contact with higher intelligence through Project Starman. He shares his conviction that nuclear conflict on the Korean peninsula is imminent and echoes Sylvia Browne's unsettling sense that time itself may be ending.

Art Bell welcomes investigative reporter Linda Moulton Howe in the first hour, who presents a detailed account of an alleged human abduction in the Campo Grande region of Brazil. A businessman named Felipe Castelo Branco describes strange round stones falling from the sky, a man vanishing from his locked bedroom for three days, and eerie body-shaped imprints scorched onto both the bed sheets and the wooden ceiling above.Renowned psychic Sylvia Browne then joins for the remainder of the program with her annual predictions. In an unprecedented departure from her normally optimistic tone, she warns of attacks on American transportation infrastructure around June or July, an escalation of biological threats already quietly underway, and a flaring up of international tensions as other nations react to U.S. military posturing in the Middle East.Browne shares her belief that the earth is striking back against ecological destruction, that extraterrestrial beings walk among humanity, and that the veil between the living and the other side is thinning. She states with unusual certainty that she sees roughly fifty years of upheaval ahead, followed by peace, and then a point beyond which she sees nothing at all.

Art Bell opens with an extensive discussion on the looming war with Iraq, asking listeners whether they are willing to support military action without being told specifically why the country is going to war. Callers weigh in from across North America, expressing skepticism about the justification for an invasion.Theoretical physicist Dr. Michio Kaku joins to address both the geopolitical crisis and cutting-edge science. He warns that war could destabilize Pakistan, where roughly twenty Hiroshima-sized nuclear weapons could fall into fundamentalist hands. He argues the real architecture of U.S. foreign policy in the Middle East is oil and advocates for a solar hydrogen economy to reduce dependence on the most unstable region on Earth.The conversation shifts to the nature of gravity, with Dr. Kaku explaining Einstein's view that space pushes rather than pulls. He discusses anti-gravity research, negative matter, the Casimir effect, time machine theory, and the search for a unified field theory. The pair also examine GPS-guided smart munitions, the biological warfare threat from former Soviet scientists, and what a cornered Saddam Hussein might unleash.
