Metaphysical Connection

Here's a recent show I recorded with hosts Walt Schnabel and Eric Fisk on Metaphysical Connection.  Check it out at their website below.
 

"Walt Schnabel and Eric Renderking Fisk chat with David Weatherly about his new book, “Wood Knocks, Volume One” and about various sightings, legends and theories on Bigfoot. We also discuss the subjects of his other books, Black Eyed Children, beings from alterate dimensions, The Djinn, and shadow people."

Dogman Symposium 2016


The first annual Dogman Conference was held this past weekend in Defiance, Ohio and was a great success.

It was a big crowd for a first time event which kicked off with a VIP meet and greet on Friday night, followed by a full day of speakers on Saturday. 

John Tenney got things going and, true to his form, kept it weird.  I was up next with a lecture on Skinwalkers, followed by the amazing Linda Godfrey discussing her dogman research.

After a lunch break, Ken Gerhard spoke on the beast of Gevaudan, Nick Redfern discussed English werewolves and Stan Gordon spoke on encounters in Pennsylvania.

The whole thing was expertly MC'd by the incredible Lyle Blackburn, and the day ended with a panel discussion that included all speakers.
We had some spectacular vendors in attendance too, and everyone seemed to have a really good time.

Defiance was chosen as the location for this year's event due to its prime location and for its series of Werewolf sightings from 1972.  What better place to kick off a hopefully annual event?

This was one of those events that you just had to attend to truly appreciate.  Lots of inquiring minds, an amazing amount of information, and great company!  Events like this can be risky, congrats to Ken Gerhard for pulling it off and giving everyone who was there a truly memorable experience.  Happy I was a part of it!

The Conspiracy to Control the Food Supply

The Dark Act landed on the White House desk and was signed without a thought.  This means more genetically modified corn and frakenfish for your table.  But what you don't know, won't hurt you right?  Remember this:

“Control oil and you control nations; control food and you control the people.”
Henry Kissinger

Biotech food producers have now gained the upper hand.  This isn't a conspiracy, it's pure fact, the government has decided to help obscure the truth about what's in the food you eat.

Meanwhile covert video has surfaced of a delegate commentating that gun control will be easy if citizens don't know what the real agenda is.

More in my new article, Food, Guns and Fading Rights in the latest issue of PP&S News, available at the link below.

The Frightened Chupacabra

Recently I've been posting a lot of classic Chupacabra encounters, and, since people still request them, I'll continue to post more. 

While the creatures have been reported in many different parts of the world, they are perhaps best known for their appearances in Puerto Rico.  A hot bed of Chupacabra activity, the small island has given us tons of reports over the years.

Researcher Albert S Rosales has recently dug up a report from 1996 and the Chupacabra in this one, while still creepy in appearance, doesn't seem very scary.  The account does contain, yet again, a report of a Chupacabra that flies.


This incident occurred in December, 1996 at about seven o'clock in the evening.  Location: Barrio Valenciano Abajo, Juncos, Puerto Rico.

Mrs. Maria Gomez, 50, reported hearing her mix-breed dog, Suky, barking insistently while she was working in the kitchen.  Due to the unusual barking, Maria went out to check why Suky was so nervous.  The terrace was located next to the kitchen.  She looked outside the door that led to the terrace and was stunned by what she saw.  She said it was a "fantastic creature."  It was humanoid in appearance with dark gray skin, about 75 lbs. in weight and about 4 feet tall.  According to Maria, it was staring directly at her small dog with a "threatening and defiant attitude."

Maria stated that it was the "ugliest creature she had ever seen," only the thin screen door separated her from the creature.

Maria armed herself with a baseball bat her husband kept in the kitchen just in case she had to use it.  It seemed to Maria that the creature (a Chupacabra she thought) was attempting to hypnotize her little dog.  The creature stared at her with a pair of huge, luminous eyes, very shiny.  However, it apparently was unable to gain control of the feisty little mutt as it continued to bark at the creature aggressively.  Holding the bat in her right hand, Maria went out onto the terrace and stood in front of the creature at a very short distance away.  And then something surprising occurred.  Maria and the creature started at each other and suddenly the creature seemed frightened and began to tremble as Maria stared it down.  At the same time, she was yelling, "You are a coward if you really are the so-called Chupacabra!"

Still trembling in apparent fear, the bizarre creature slowly covered its body and face with a pair of scaly wings, apparently "hurt" at the insults from Maria.  It then slowly walked in a clumsy manner behind a washing machine on the terrace.  Maria kept yelling at it to leave, and the creature apparently understood her as it suddenly ran and jumped on top of the fence which surrounded the second-story terrace.  From there, it took off, flying away and disappearing into the night sky towards the east.

An interesting detail noted by Maria was that the eyes of the creature appeared to emanate light, illuminating the terrace clearly just like a flashlight.

IONS to study Channeling

 
The Institute of Noetic Sciences (IONS) founded by astronaut Edgar Mitchell, has announced a research project to study individuals who claim to channel spiritual entities.

The project's lead researcher, Helane Wahbeh, speaking at a recent conference, notes that preliminary studies into certain aspects of the phenomena have already been undertaken by IONS senior scientist Dr. Dean Radin.

Wahbeh, a Naturopathic physician, spoke about the project in depth, and offered a brief definition of channeling:

"It is an umbrella term for the communication of information to or through a live human, from a source other than the physical as we know it.
It's an ability that has a long history and appears to have manifested in the Delphic Oracle in Greece, as well as with Moses, the Virgin Mary and Muhammad.  In fact, many of our world religions were founded on channeled prophecy or messages."

More modern channellers include Edgar Cayce, known as the sleeping prophet, Jane Roberts who channeled "Seth" and Helen Schucman, a professor of psychology who channeled the book "A Course in Miracles."  Schucman's identity was hidden at her own insistence and wasn't revealed until after her death in 1981.

Wahbeh has a personal interest in the phenomena of channeling, having been exposed to it since the age of ten.  Along with a team of researchers, she has developed a five year, comprehensive research project to investigate, and hopefully find answers to, some of the questions surrounding the mysterious ability. 

"Our research will use rigorous and systematic methods to study channeling, without preconceived notions about what may or may not be real.  We may come to learn that the process is complete 'hocus-pocus' and that all mediums are frauds.  And then again, we might not.
A true scientist is open to either outcome.  Through well-designed, blinded, unbiased studies, we will discover which outcome is correct."

IONS is in a unique position with the launch of the project and the rigorous study of the phenomena.  Wahbeh and Radin intended to ensure that the study is conducted carefully.

"The biggest question is, perhaps, even with rigorous science, would the world--would you--be willing to accept findings that indicate channeling is a real experience?  Is the world ready to accept indications that consciousness exists beyond the human body?"
