Ep 55#55 - Matthew Roberts : Author

E

In this episode Truth talks with Matthew Roberts, author of "Initiated: UAP, Dreams, Depression, Delusions, Shadow People, Psychosis, Sleep Paralysis, and Pandemics." The two discuss Matthew's background and experiences with UFO's / UAP (unidentified aerial phenomenon) and related entities – and how this all ties into mythology, the mysteries, religion, psychology, and universal consciousness… In 2015, Matthew Roberts was a US Naval service member and Naval Intelligence Cryptologist who was stationed onboard the USS Theodore Roosevelt. The events that transpired during their 2015 workup cycle brought us the first-ever declassified UFO / UAP (the infamous "Gimbal" and "Go Fast" UFO footage) - Which was acknowledged by the Pentagon and written about in the New York Times article titled: "Glowing Auras and 'Black Money': The Pentagon's Mysterious U.F.O. Program." Subsequently, he transferred to the Office of Naval Intelligence in Washington D.C. where he began to have frequent, and often intense, personal experiences with the phenomenon and entities associated with it. He discovered through a long, painful, and terrifying journey that the truth of the phenomenon has deep and profound implications for the future of the human race. It may seem like a bold statement but the ultimate universal truth that underlies the phenomenon is captured in the simple yet eloquent words of Mark Twain, "The two most important days in your life are the day you are born, and the day you find out why."

Ep 43#43 - X-Mess Special 2020

E

First off - this is a sloppy, horrible episode! We recorded this during a crescendo of drunken idiocy at the Choppahead holiday party. But we had a blast and you'll be sure to have some laughs -- and also shake your head in judgement at us. In full disclosure, it's probably really stupid to release this episode... Truth is joined by past guests including: Lenny Lashley, Ken Dogg, Ryan Rioux, Ryan Packer, Joehawk, and also more guest appearances by CJ and Keith Crovello. This episode is full hammertime – there's a lot of drunken nonsense, repeating ourselves, and idiocy. We ramble on about CJ's lack of gall bladder and bellybutton, music, Christmas stuff, bad ideas, explosives, etc. If you're looking for a semi-serious interview episode – this is not the one for you. You've been warned!!! But it is a fitting shit-show of an episode to end this shit-show of a year!!! As always, please hit the subscribe button if you like and support what we do!
