Dr. Gilbert Doctorow discusses Putin's Valdai speech, which Doctorow believes sent the wrong signals. A common concern in Moscow is that its efforts to de-escalate are interpreted in the West as weakness, and this is likely the consequence of Putin's speech.

You may agree that the so-called hard problem of consciousness exposes the deep inadequacies of a materialist worldview. But the alternatives - various forms of panpsychism, panentheism and idealism - raise rich and fascinating questions too.
In this episode of The Sheldrake-Vernon Dialogues, Rupert Sheldrake and Mark Vernon explore the leading edge of consciousness research, with Rupert just back from The Science of Consciousness Conference 2025 in Barcelona. They discuss the impact of Indian researchers in consciousness and the proposals of microchip inventor, Federico Faggin.
They consider trainings in extra-ocular vision and questions thrown up by the hit podcast series, The Telepathy Tapes. One thing is clear: when the materialist paradigm passes, the science of consciousness will have only just begun.

In this episode of Limitless, Raul Bilecky, @PillarsofthePast101 takes us deep into the deserts and mountains of Peru—revealing breathtaking footage of ancient sites that remain undocumented and unexplored. From temples with no Ministry of Culture record, to vast stretches of looted ruins littered with bones and pottery shards, Raul shares discoveries rarely seen by the outside world.
We explore megalithic pottery larger than anything in the archaeological record, mysterious sunken plazas that may rewrite the history of the Americas, and newly spotted geoglyphs predating the famous Nazca lines by thousands of years. Alongside tales of looting pits stretching for kilometers and artifacts destroyed in search of metal, Raul highlights the urgency of documenting these sacred places before they vanish to agriculture, erosion, or theft.

In this interview, I sit down with Michael Battista, a former Green Beret and active Psionic Asset with Team Skywatcher. Drawing on his background in special operations, Michael brings precision, discipline, and structure to his work in the field of psionics.
With hundreds of documented encounters with UAP phenomena, he has been professionally utilized for his reported ability to “summon” UAP using telepathic methods, as well as for identifying these skills in others. Michael shares how, when practiced with intention and experience in the right environment, psionics can facilitate contact with UAPs and produce objectively captured data.

Atlantis, Plato, sacred geometry, ancient myths, and lost technology and esoteric history.
Is Atlantis a myth or real history? What does the geological evidence say? What are the hidden layers of wisdom beneath the surface of Plato's text? All of this and much more in this mind meld.
In this one, @TheRandallCarlson returns to journey, line by line through one of Plato's Critias to navigate one of history's greatest puzzles: Atlantis. Along the way, we explore the sacred geometry, cosmic cataclysmic cycles, and sacred mysteries encoded in the dialogue.
More topics:
- Why Plato’s Critias may preserve more than just allegory
- The Atlantean blueprint and its connections to sacred geometry
- Evidence of lost ancient technology and knowledge systems
- How ancient cataclysms and cosmic cycles may explain Atlantis’ fall
- What the text reveals about humanity’s forgotten past and hidden potential
Randall Carlson is a researcher, teacher, and master builder known for his decades of work on catastrophism, sacred geometry, and ancient civilizations. His insights invite us to reimagine not only the origins of Atlantis, but the foundations of human history itself.

Thunder Strike Ranch is a secluded 100-acre + property nestled in the high desert mountains of Utah’s Uinta Basin. Sitting directly between two of the most mysterious properties in the world Blind Frog Ranch to the north (as seen on Discovery Channel) and Skinwalker Ranch to the south (as seen on History Channel)—Thunder Strike Ranch lies directly in the path of the Skinwalker.
This land is steeped in ancient history. Indigenous Native American tribes once inhabited this area for thousands of years. But the peace of the land was shattered by the arrival of Spanish Conquistadors, who clashed violently with the native people—enslaving them and forcing them to dig gold and silver mines deep into the surrounding hillsides. Many of those ancient tunnels remain lost and unexplored until NOW.
Thunder Strike Ranch is known as a UFO and paranormal hotspot, with high strangeness reported across the property and sightings of ghosts that wander the land. Since the 1980s, this region has quietly drawn the attention of government researchers due to its proximity to electromagnetic anomalies, cattle mutilations, and unexplainable aerial phenomena that appear along a direct north-south corridor between Blind Frog Ranch and Skinwalker Ranch.
