March 4, 1998: Project Stargate - Dale Graff

Art Bell opens with alarming reports of flesh-eating strep A bacteria spreading across Texas, with 89 cases and 18 deaths reported since December. He questions why the outbreak receives so little national media coverage. A caller claiming to be a former government biological weapons researcher connects the outbreak to experiments at Dugway, Utah, alleging that common bacteria have been engineered into lethal strains.The main guest is Dale Graff, the man who coined the name for the government's secret remote viewing effort, Project Stargate. Graff, who spent 17 years in the Defense Department researching parapsychological phenomena, confirms that psi is real based on his quarter-century of work. He describes the protocols used in remote viewing sessions, including randomized targeting and double-blind procedures, and offers his theory that remote viewers may actually be perceiving their own future knowledge rather than traveling through time.Graff reveals that the program's cancellation was driven more by career concerns of military commanders than by any failure of results. He states that if the 1995 review had examined earlier successes from the 1980s rather than only the final two years, the conclusion would have been very different. He maintains that psi ability exists in everyone to varying degrees and represents an extension of natural human intuition.

March 3, 1998: ET Stories - Cynthia Turnage

Art Bell speaks with freelance writer Cynthia Turnage, who has studied over 300 translations of ancient Mesopotamian, Vedic, Hebrew, and Egyptian texts. Turnage presents her research into reported sexual encounters between humans and extraterrestrials, drawing from approximately 35 documented cases. She describes the 1957 Antonio Villas Boas case from Brazil and accounts from witnesses her physicist husband has interviewed, noting that technical descriptions of spacecraft operations showed consistent details across unrelated cases.The conversation expands into Turnage's broader thesis that the Bible represents a series of coded transmissions from beings originating on the planet Nibiru. She connects Mesopotamian deity Marduk to biblical references, argues that Babylonian cubits can measure distances between Martian monuments, and claims to have found additional face-like structures on Mars forming geometric patterns. She also shares her analysis of NASA lunar photographs showing what she interprets as anomalous objects.Turnage offers her interpretation of biblical prophecy, connecting the rebuilding of Babylon by Saddam Hussein to the Book of Daniel and Revelation. She calculates the return of Nibiru at 2060 A.D. based on a 3,600-year orbital period. Callers challenge and support her claims in equal measure throughout the program.

February 27, 1998: Science & Spirituality - Gregg Braden

Art Bell welcomes scientist and author Gregg Braden for a conversation bridging ancient wisdom and modern science. Braden, a former geologist and aerospace engineer who worked on the Peacekeeper missile program at Martin Marietta, argues that key spiritual and scientific texts were removed from public knowledge around 325 A.D. under Constantine. He contends that these lost documents contained an inner technology relating human emotion to physical well-being and genetic expression.The discussion turns to evidence of spontaneous genetic mutation documented since 1995. Braden cites a global blood study from the Aaron Diamond AIDS Research Center showing that at least one percent of the population tested had developed DNA mutations conferring resistance to HIV up to 3,000 times greater than normal. He references UCLA research on children born HIV-positive who spontaneously cleared the virus, and Stanford University studies linking emotional states to immune system function.Braden proposes that human DNA contains dormant codes being activated in response to environmental challenges including declining magnetic fields and ozone depletion. He points to research showing previously unused gene sets switching on within individuals during their own lifetimes, a phenomenon scientists are calling spontaneous genetic mutation of recent evolutionary origin.

February 26, 1998: Mariner Mission to Mars - Mark J. Carlotto & Stanley McDaniel

Art Bell opens with breaking reports of mysterious blue-green fireballs over Colorado. UFO Reporting Center director Peter Davenport and MUFON Colorado state director Michael Kurta describe an object seen for four minutes over Colorado Springs, far too long for any natural meteorite. Multiple witnesses across the Denver metro area confirm sightings, and military helicopters from Fort Carson reportedly launched blacked out toward the area where the object may have landed.The program then shifts to Dr. Mark J. Carlotto and Professor Stanley McDaniel, who discuss the Mars Global Surveyor mission and prospects for imaging the Cydonia region. They clarify that the spacecraft camera was turned off due to aerobraking constraints and solar conjunction, not conspiracy, and that multiple imaging opportunities will arise between late March and September. Carlotto cites statistical odds between 100-to-1 and 100,000-to-1 favoring artificiality of the Cydonia structures.Both scientists express concern over contractor Michael Malin having sole control of Mars imagery. McDaniel notes that NASA personnel at a recent meeting appeared unfamiliar with years of published research on the Cydonia anomalies, suggesting institutional barriers rather than a deliberate cover-up may be at work.

February 25, 1998: Cryptozoology - Loren Coleman

Art Bell welcomes cryptozoologist Loren Coleman for a wide-ranging exploration of mysterious creatures reported around the world. Coleman shares decades of field research into Bigfoot, the Chupacabra, phantom kangaroos, and lake monsters, offering his assessment that Pacific Northwest Sasquatch sightings point to an unidentified bipedal primate. He discusses physical evidence including footprint analysis, hair samples, and nest structures that distinguish genuine encounters from hoaxes.The conversation turns to the Patterson-Gimlin film, which Coleman considers authentic based on his evaluation of the witnesses and the footage itself. He addresses the famous John Chambers hoax claim, noting that Chambers himself denied involvement. Coleman also weighs in on the Chupacabra phenomenon, suggesting these creatures may be primates rather than the reptilian aliens many assume them to be.Callers share their own encounters, including a Marine whose military exercise was canceled after troops encountered unknown bipedal creatures in the California wilderness. A woman describes picking berries alongside a Bigfoot as a child. Coleman responds thoughtfully to each account while maintaining his scientific approach to the field of cryptozoology.

February 24, 1998: Theoretical Physics - Dr. Michio Kaku

Art Bell welcomes Professor Michio Kaku, theoretical physicist at the City University of New York and co-founder of string field theory, for a sweeping conversation that moves from the nature of gravity to the possibility of time travel and the future of human civilization.Kaku explains Einstein's revolutionary insight that gravity is not a pulling force but rather the effect of mass bending the fabric of space, using the analogy of a fat actor warping a trampoline stage. He describes how string theory extends this into 10 and 11 dimensions, with the latest M-theory suggesting that our entire universe exists on the surface of a bubble in a boiling multiverse where Big Bangs happen constantly. The discussion covers wormholes as shortcuts through space, the Casimir effect as laboratory evidence of negative energy, and the hypothetical negative matter that could serve as fuel for a time machine. Kaku outlines the Kardashev scale of civilizations, classifying humanity as a primitive Type 0 that burns dead plants for energy, roughly 100 to 200 years from achieving Type 1 planetary status.Art challenges Kaku on whether advanced civilizations would necessarily be peaceful, and Kaku responds with the sobering observation that the real danger lies in whether Type 0 civilizations can survive their own nuclear weapons and pollution long enough to evolve.

February 23, 1998: Mars Mission - Richard C. Hoagland

Art Bell reunites with Richard C. Hoagland, winner of the Angstrom Science Award and former advisor to Walter Cronkite, for an urgent broadcast about the Mars Global Surveyor mission and what Hoagland calls a deliberate effort by NASA to avoid photographing the Cydonia region.Hoagland explains that the spacecraft's elliptical orbit is about to bring its camera within 150 miles of the controversial face and pyramid structures, offering resolution 40 to 50 times sharper than the 1976 Viking images. However, principal investigator Dr. Michael Malin has announced on his website that the camera may be turned off due to power limitations, just as the geometry becomes ideal for Cydonia imaging. Hoagland argues this contradicts NASA Administrator Dan Goldin's public promise to photograph Cydonia at every available opportunity. Art provides fax numbers for Goldin, Ted Koppel, and CNN's John Holliman, urging listeners to demand the camera remain operational. In the second half, engineer Ted Tweetmeyer joins to reveal that telemetry data from the Challenger launch pad was lost because someone manually disabled a switching system in the blockhouse shortly before liftoff.A broadcast that combines the Mars imaging controversy with troubling questions about the Challenger disaster and the boundaries between NASA's public mission and its classified operations.

February 20, 1998: Alien Abductions - David Jacobs

Art Bell welcomes Professor David Jacobs, a Temple University historian and author of The Threat, for a detailed examination of the alien abduction phenomenon based on hundreds of hypnotic regression sessions conducted over decades of careful academic research.Jacobs presents his findings that abduction accounts from unrelated individuals across the country contain strikingly consistent details about alien beings, procedures, and spacecraft interiors. He describes a systematic program of genetic harvesting and hybrid breeding that appears to span multiple human generations, with abductees reporting procedures involving reproductive material collection and the presentation of hybrid offspring. The conversation addresses the psychological toll on experiencers who struggle to reconcile traumatic memories with everyday life, as well as the therapeutic challenges of helping them process these encounters. Art presses Jacobs on how his academic colleagues receive this research, and Jacobs explains the professional risks of investigating a subject that mainstream science dismisses outright.Jacobs outlines what he considers the most disturbing implication of his findings: that the abduction program is not random or benevolent but represents a methodical integration project with long-term consequences for human autonomy and identity.

February 19, 1998: The Life of Edgar Cayce - Edgar Evans Cayce

Art Bell sits down with Edgar Evans Cayce, the 80-year-old son of famed psychic Edgar Cayce, for a rare and personal conversation about growing up with America's most documented clairvoyant. The elder Cayce gave over 14,000 readings during his lifetime, roughly 60 percent of which were medical diagnoses that produced remarkable results when followed precisely.Edgar Evans recounts how his father discovered his abilities as a child by sleeping on a spelling book and absorbing its contents, then later cured his own voice loss through self-induced hypnosis. He shares the story of his own severe childhood burn, which his father diagnosed and treated through a reading that allowed full recovery. The discussion turns to Atlantis, a subject Edgar Evans researched extensively by compiling hundreds of his father's life readings into the book Edgar Cayce on Atlantis. He notes that archaeological discoveries, satellite imaging of the Nile's ancient westward course, and radiocarbon dating have repeatedly confirmed details his father described decades earlier.Art asks about the Hall of Records beneath the Sphinx, earth change prophecies, and whether anyone today matches his father's abilities. Edgar Evans replies simply that his brother searched the world and never found anyone with a comparable track record.

February 18, 1998: Anti-Aging - Dr. Ronald Klatz

Art Bell welcomes Dr. Ronald Klatz, president of the American Academy of Anti-Aging Medicine, for a wide-ranging discussion on longevity science and the prospect of dramatically extending the human lifespan. The broadcast opens with coverage of a contentious Ohio State University town hall meeting on the Iraq crisis, featuring firsthand reporting from journalist Marshall Barnes who was present at the event.Dr. Klatz outlines the scientific breakthroughs he believes will allow people alive today to push well beyond natural limits. He describes the Human Genome Project's ahead-of-schedule progress in mapping every gene in the human body and predicts reliable genetic therapies within 20 years that could reset aging at the cellular level. The conversation covers hormone replacement therapy, including newly FDA-approved human growth hormone for aging-related conditions, along with practical recommendations for antioxidants, selenium supplementation, and exercise. Klatz and Art also discuss the politics of pain medication, the promise of antiviral drugs, and the five-year timeline he projects for an AIDS cure.Art presses Klatz on the philosophical question of why anyone would want to live forever, and Klatz responds with a personal goal of 150 years before calling his friend Dr. Jack Kevorkian for a house call.

February 16, 1998: UFO Propulsion Systems - Mark McCandlish

Art Bell speaks with aerospace illustrator and researcher Mark McCandlish, who has spent 18 years consulting for defense contractors and collecting testimony about classified aircraft. McCandlish describes a family of vehicles known as Aurora, including a football-shaped craft using pulse detonation propulsion that creates distinctive donut-on-a-rope contrails over the western United States. He estimates classified aviation technology may be 30 years ahead of what is publicly acknowledged.The discussion shifts to scalar electromagnetic weapons, which McCandlish says transmit destructive energy through hyperspace by combining two focused beams at a distant target. He suggests these weapons could explain mysterious power grid failures and raises the possibility that Iraq may be acquiring this technology from Russia. He connects Tesla's resonance research to the underlying principles and speculates that Chernobyl resulted from a scalar weapon's energy being reflected back to its source.McCandlish outlines his plan to build a proof-of-concept anti-gravity device using a satellite dish fitted with capacitor sections made from magnesium-zinc foil laminated with bismuth, powered by a Van de Graaff generator and Tesla coil. He believes the Biefeld-Brown effect can produce enough lift to raise a thousand pounds and intends to compete for the X Prize in commercial spaceflight.

February 12, 1998: Reverse Speech - David John Oates

Art Bell welcomes back Australian researcher David Oates for an extended exploration of reverse speech, the theory that human language simultaneously produces unconscious communication when played backward. Oates demonstrates with classic examples, including Neil Armstrong's lunar landing audio reversing to "man will spacewalk" and his own infant daughter producing clear English words in reverse before she could speak forward.The bulk of the program focuses on reverse speech analysis of President Bill Clinton and the Lewinsky scandal. Oates plays reversals from Clinton's public statements that appear to confirm the sexual relationship, including crude references and the phrase "I see that we're broken." Hillary Clinton's reversals suggest emotional pain and a private understanding with her husband. Press Secretary Mike McCurry's speech reverses to reveal frustration, while Clinton's remarks on Iraq produce the chilling phrase "let's shoot for the assassin."Oates also presents reversals from NASA officials containing the word "Cydonia" and a reference to a starship, and he revisits reversals from a previous guest known as Harlot, a self-described devil worshiper. He addresses criticism of bias in his Clinton analysis and emphasizes the strict research protocols governing syllable count, tonal signature, and contextual congruence that distinguish legitimate reverse speech findings.

February 11, 1998: Roswell Alien Technology - Jack Shulman

Art Bell opens with a lively hour of open lines covering the Monica Lewinsky scandal, a five-million-dollar interview offer from his Las Vegas affiliate, the looming Iraq conflict, and reports of unusual animal behavior worldwide. He notes that the Clinton administration has quietly authorized targeting Iraq with tactical nuclear warheads, raising the stakes of the pending military action.The main guest is Jack Shulman, chairman of the American Computer Company, who claims his firm is back-engineering alien technology recovered from the 1947 Roswell crash. Shulman describes a device called the transcapacitor, which stores information not as binary ones and zeros like a transistor but as multiple voltage gradients, functioning similarly to the rods and cones of the human eye. He says a wallet-sized version could hold several terabytes of data and operate at billions of bits per second.Shulman recounts receiving a mysterious classified fax from a military space platform called Sky Station, followed by a break-in at his offices where nothing of obvious value was taken but files were searched. Linda Moulton Howe joins to compare the transcapacitor's physical description with the alien wafers described by Colonel Philip Corso in his book about Roswell technology transfer.

February 10, 1998: Ufology - Derrel Sims | Gulf Breeze UFO - Whitley Strieber

Art Bell opens with author Whitley Strieber and Project Awareness coordinator Vicki Lyons, who report a remarkable series of UFO sightings over the Gulf Breeze, Florida area. Strieber describes witnessing a brilliant garnet-red light hovering above the horizon that moved directly overhead during a Life magazine photo shoot. Lyons explains how multiple observer groups triangulated the object from separate locations across Pensacola, and she shares details of daytime sightings captured on video by witnesses in nearby Robertsdale, Alabama.The second half features Derrel Sims, a former CIA operative turned hard-evidence UFO investigator. Sims details his own childhood abduction experiences beginning at age three and explains his discovery of fluorescence found on the skin of abductees after contact with the beings. He describes how pathology reports from surgically removed scoop marks reveal solar elastosis, indicating localized exposure to intense ultraviolet radiation that corroborates abductee testimony.Sims recounts a bold experiment in which he implanted a post-hypnotic suggestion containing sensitive information into an ongoing abductee, effectively sending a message to her captors. He discusses the resulting mass abduction event of December 1992 involving eight separate witnesses and addresses the critical distinction between false memory syndrome and genuine recovered memory in hypnotherapy work.

February 9, 1998: Remote Viewing - Ed Dames

Art Bell welcomes back Major Ed Dames, the former military remote viewing operations officer known as "Dr. Doom," for a wide-ranging discussion of SciTech's latest projects and predictions. Dames explains how technical remote viewing works as a rigorous protocol for downloading patterns of information from the collective unconscious, and he describes his team's past intelligence work locating Iraqi biological weapons stockpiles for the United Nations.The conversation turns to Dames' alarming forecasts. He warns of devastating weather destroying North American food crops, a coming global economic collapse, and a rapidly accelerating wave of disease that will overwhelm medical institutions worldwide. He also updates his prediction of a lethal solar event he calls the "kill shot" and discusses a mysterious cylinder on an Earth-intercept trajectory that his team believes carries a plant pathogen.Dames shares findings from SciTech's dolphin communication research, revealing the animals process information visually and respond to photographs. He also addresses the JFK assassination, stating his remote viewing sessions revealed a pneumatic flechette fired from inside the presidential vehicle. The program closes with details on Project Starman, his ambitious plan to initiate extraterrestrial contact from a site in Polynesia.

February 5, 1998: Reptilian Encounters - Pamela Stonebrooke

Art Bell opens with Peter Davenport discussing mysterious photographs of U.S. Air Force Black Hawk helicopters dumping pilot whales 150 miles out to sea, whales the military had kept for 13 months after they beached themselves near Key West with their tails bent at 90-degree angles. Davenport estimates the operation cost taxpayers over a million dollars and questions why the military would invest such resources in cetacean rehabilitation only to release them back into the wild.The program then shifts to returning guest Pamela Stonebrooke, a professional singer and self-described experiencer who recounts her ongoing encounters with reptilian beings. She describes a profound telepathic and emotional connection with a reptilian entity, one that began when a human-appearing figure transformed mid-encounter into a scaled creature. A regression session with hypnotherapist Barbara Lamb revealed what Pamela interprets as a past-life memory of existing as a reptilian warrior facing extinction.Pamela discusses the personal cost of going public, including job loss and strained relationships, while noting she has received hundreds of letters from other women describing similar experiences. She also references frightening incidents suggesting military interest in her case, including waking up drugged with physical injuries after apparent interrogation.

February 4, 1998: Alien Implants - Dr. Roger Leir

Art Bell speaks with podiatric surgeon Dr. Roger Leir and investigator Daryl Sims about the surgical removal and scientific analysis of objects taken from the bodies of alleged alien abductees. Dr. Leir describes removing a T-shaped metallic object from a woman's foot that was covered in a biological membrane so strong it could not be cut with a surgical scalpel, yet showed zero inflammatory response from the body, something unprecedented in his 33 years of surgical practice.Analysis at Los Alamos and New Mexico Tech revealed the objects contain an iron carbide core with hardness matching the highest carbon tool steel, surrounded by layers of aluminum, calcium, barium, copper, and other elements. The membrane coating was composed entirely of materials from the human body, including blood proteins, an oxygen-binding iron pigment, and keratin. Scanning electron microscope photographs posted on Art Bell's website show the structured metallic rods in extraordinary detail, including what appears to be a barb-like anchoring device.Sims reveals that nerve proprioceptors, sensory organs normally found only in fingertips and skin surfaces, were discovered deep inside the tissue surrounding the implants near bone. A Gauss meter registered strong electromagnetic readings over one patient's implant site, readings that vanished immediately after surgical removal. Both researchers note that major drug companies have expressed interest in the rejection-proof membrane technology.

February 3, 1998: Cancer Survivor - Dr. Lorraine Day

Art Bell interviews Dr. Lorraine Day, a former associate professor and vice chairman of orthopedic surgery at the University of California San Francisco, about her personal battle with cancer and the natural methods she used to overcome it. Dr. Day describes how a small tumor on her chest grew to the size of a grapefruit in just ten days after her immune system collapsed from years of overwork, sleep deprivation, and chronic stress.After refusing chemotherapy and radiation, which she argues destroy the very immune system needed for healing, Dr. Day adopted a rigorous natural protocol. Her plan included eight glasses of fresh carrot juice daily, four glasses of green vegetable juice, eliminating meat and sugar, drinking sixteen to twenty glasses of water, getting adequate sunlight, and most critically, removing the emotional stress from her life through prayer and lifestyle changes. She reports being cancer-free within ten months.Dr. Day challenges conventional medical thinking on multiple fronts, arguing that genetics account for less than five percent of cancers and that the real culprits are malnutrition, dehydration, and chronic stress. She shares the story of her 85-year-old mother recovering from a severe autoimmune disease on the same program, and callers contribute their own experiences with alternative healing approaches.

February 1, 1998: UPN's Lake County Abduction Show - Stanton Friedman

Art Bell is joined by nuclear physicist Stanton Friedman to discuss the controversial UPN television special about the McPherson family abduction, a program that blurred the line between documentary and fiction. Friedman explains he was interviewed for over an hour about abduction research but never saw the alleged home video at the center of the show. His comments were then edited alongside scripted footage featuring 22 listed cast members, creating the false impression that he was endorsing the dramatization as authentic.Friedman describes his efforts to hold UPN and Dick Clark Productions accountable, having contacted both organizations and the FCC about the deceptive presentation. He notes that the show listed actors for every role, including the aliens, yet half of viewers polled believed the footage was genuine. On a positive note, he announces plans to produce his own television documentary with full creative control, promising to present verified evidence and expose fraudulent claims in ufology.The conversation broadens into Roswell, where Friedman challenges the Air Force crash test dummy explanation and discusses his classified meetings with federal officials who acknowledged the UFO phenomenon as real. Open lines bring calls ranging from Tom Clancy buying the Minnesota Vikings to animal attacks and daylight saving time debates.

February 1, 1998: UFO Reporting - Peter Davenport

Art Bell welcomes Peter Davenport of the National UFO Reporting Center for a special Dreamland edition packed with raw audio recordings and startling revelations. Davenport shares never-before-heard details about the massive March 13, 1997 Phoenix sighting, including unconfirmed reports that a U.S. reconnaissance satellite went offline, that military forces jumped from DEFCON 5 to DEFCON 3, and that President Clinton's knee injury that same night may not have been a simple stumble on carpet.The program features extraordinary raw 911 dispatch audio from a 1994 Michigan incident in which a National Weather Service radar operator tracked multiple large, fast-moving objects over Lake Michigan in real time. Listeners hear his escalating astonishment as returns appear, split apart, and race toward Chicago at altitudes between 6,000 and 12,000 feet. Additional recordings from Edwards Air Force Base confirm military personnel scrambling interceptors after painting unknown objects on radar.Davenport also presents recent reports from Maine, Florida, and Seattle, noting a troubling increase in close encounters involving vehicle interference and witness paralysis. He appeals to listeners with inside knowledge of military activities on the night of the Phoenix sighting to come forward with any information that might confirm these extraordinary claims.

January 30, 1998: The Afterlife - James Van Praagh

Art Bell sits down with spiritual medium James Van Praagh, whose book Talking to Heaven holds the number one spot on the New York Times bestseller list. Van Praagh describes how he first discovered his abilities after visiting a British medium at age 24, and within two years was accurately relaying names, personal details, and specific memories from those who had passed on. He built a three-year waiting list through referrals alone, never advertising his services.Van Praagh presents his understanding of the afterlife as a multidimensional realm where consciousness determines experience. He describes a world as solid and real as the physical one, with landscapes, homes, schools, and activities, where spirits return to the prime of their lives and reunite with beloved pets. He explains that suicide creates profound consequences as the spirit witnesses the grief it caused, and that capital punishment releases troubled souls at dangerously low vibrational levels where they may influence the living.The discussion ranges across near-death experiences, the nature of hell as self-created guilt, cloning and its spiritual implications, and the life review process where every effect of one's actions on others is felt firsthand. Van Praagh shares his own childhood vision of a luminous hand descending through his bedroom ceiling that confirmed for him the reality of a loving God force.

January 29, 1998: The Presidential Scandal - Sean David Morton

Art Bell welcomes self-described prophet Sean David Morton to discuss his prediction of the Clinton scandal months before it broke. Morton traces his forecasting of Clinton's troubled presidency back to September 1992, when he published that Clinton would win with exactly 42 percent of the vote. He connects astrological patterns to political destiny, explaining that Clinton took his second oath of office under a void of course moon, the same lunar condition present during Nixon's ill-fated 1973 inauguration, and that no president inaugurated under this aspect has survived the term politically or physically.Morton draws eerie parallels between the Clinton and Nixon situations, noting that Monica Lewinsky lived in the Watergate complex, that both presidents face destruction by tape recordings, and that Clinton was forced onto the very aircraft that carried Nixon from Washington on resignation day and later JFK's body from Dallas. He predicts the accumulation of scandals involving foreign money and multiple women will ultimately force Clinton from office by August.The conversation expands to the Asian economic crisis, Super Bowl cycles as stock market indicators, the Y2K computer problem and its potential to crash Social Security and IRS systems, and Morton's claims about massive UFO motherships returning over Phoenix in January 1998.

January 27, 1998: Abductee Open Lines | Alien Encounter - KT Frankovich | Mars Mission - Richard C. Hoagland

Art Bell opens the phone lines exclusively for those who have experienced alien abduction. Callers describe enhanced night vision following contact, sexual experiments aboard craft, missing time lasting several days, and mysterious implants still present beneath their skin. One caller recounts a Travis Walton-like experience involving a domino-shaped craft, a four-day catatonic state, and a strange silicone substance found covering his body afterward.Wildlife filmmaker KT Frankovich then shares her never-before-told 1992 encounter in a lime grove near Miami. She describes in remarkable detail a four-foot-nine gray being with six-fingered hands, non-porous skin, and powerfully muscled legs that defied the frail upper body. Her two trained attack dogs immediately fell asleep upon seeing the creature. She ran parallel to the being as it sprinted through the grove with gazelle-like leaps, carrying a metallic bag. A second encounter at her apartment window involved a female and juvenile being who placed a six-fingered hand against the screen while communicating telepathically.Richard C. Hoagland closes the program with analysis of a new NASA directive terminating all human missions beyond Earth orbit, issued the same day the Lunar Prospector spacecraft arrived at the moon. He connects this to a secret November meeting at NASA headquarters regarding Cydonia imaging.

January 26, 1998: Alien Agenda - Jim Marrs

Art Bell welcomes investigative journalist Jim Marrs to discuss his book Alien Agenda and the broader implications of government secrecy. Marrs argues that the Clinton scandal has conveniently derailed a growing momentum toward government openness on the UFO issue, noting that plans for a full-page Washington Post ad demanding disclosure have been shelved. He describes how every military-trained remote viewer from the U.S. government program had direct knowledge of extraterrestrial craft and beings.Marrs outlines how media control operates not through censoring individual reporters but through managing the distribution of information at the network level. He reveals that UFO stories submitted for broadcast simply never came back from approval. The conversation turns to the secret government question of who truly controls information when even presidents and CIA directors cannot access it. Stephen Bassett calls in live to describe an urgent effort to get disclosure materials to White House advisors before the State of the Union address.The show also covers the abduction phenomenon, the Alien Agenda thesis of hawks dealing with hawks in secret agreements, and a breaking NASA directive terminating all human exploration beyond Earth orbit. Richard C. Hoagland joins to discuss what this quarantine means in light of new findings about the face on Mars.

January 25, 1998: Reverse Speech - David John Oates | Dreams - Trish & Rob MacGregor

Art Bell welcomes reverse speech analyst David John Oates to examine audio reversals from the unfolding Clinton-Lewinsky scandal. Oates plays recordings of President Clinton, Mike McCurry, Al Gore, and George Stephanopoulos speaking forward, then reveals hidden messages embedded in the reversed audio. Among the most striking findings are McCurry saying "damn him, this is ugly and a mess" and Clinton producing several coarse reversals that suggest deception about the nature of his relationship with Monica Lewinsky.Oates explains the fundamentals of reverse speech, demonstrating how the unconscious mind constructs clear phrases within normal conversation at intervals of every ten to fifteen seconds. He shares examples ranging from baby speech to Neil Armstrong on the lunar surface, and recounts the personal dangers he has faced pursuing this research, including his house being burned to the ground.In the second half, authors Trish and Rob MacGregor join to discuss their book on dreams. They explore flying dreams, out-of-body experiences, recurring dream patterns, and the fine line between lucid dreaming and astral travel. Callers share vivid personal accounts of prophetic dreams and unexplained nighttime encounters.
