Source: New Thinking Allowed with Jeffrey Mishlove youtube



This video is a special release from the original Thinking Allowed series that ran on public television from 1986 until 2002. It was recorded in about 1990. 

 The late Hal Stone, PhD, is author of Embracing Heaven and Earth and co-author, with his wife Dr. Sidra Winkelman, of Embracing Our Selves and Embracing Each Other. He and Dr. Winkelman are developers of the "Voice Dialogue" psychotherapeutic process.

Here he describes how he discovered the "Voice Dialogue" method of contacting his own sub-personalities. The process, as it has evolved, includes elements of gestalt therapy, psychosynthesis, psychodrama, transactional analysis and Jungian analysis. 

Dr. Stone describes various sub-personalities such as the "protector-controller," the "pusher" and the "critic." The Voice Dialogue technique is demonstrated with Jeffrey Mishlove and Dr. Stone each taking a turn as therapeutic subject.

Pepe Escobar | BREAKING: The Nuclear Signal Nobody Expected.Why the Next 72 Hours Decide Everything | Aug. 27, 2026

Source: Transition Protocol youtube



Description:
IRAN HAS SIGNALLED IT MAY OPEN THE NUCLEAR FILE — and the Strait of Hormuz has 72 hours to prove whether the deal is real. 

Pepe Escobar and Zulfiqar Ali break down the Iran–US architecture now being assembled through Pakistani mediation: the closed Strait of Hormuz, the war-risk insurance premiums that will move before any government speaks, the six billion dollars sitting in Qatari banks, and the three-capital joint statement that sources say could land within 48 hours. Sources close to the talks indicate Iranian negotiators may show flexibility on the nuclear dossier at a later stage — a reversal from the position held a day earlier.

Also in this episode: why Iran has shut Omani territorial waters to transiting ships and taken control of the whole strait; why Pakistan has refused to enforce US secondary sanctions on Iran — described here as a first in its history — alongside coordinated foreign-ministry pushback from Russia and China; the role of former Pakistani army chief Raheel Sharif in carrying the framework to Riyadh and onward to Washington; the 40 million Pakistani Shias offered to Tehran as a guarantee of good faith; and the 60-to-90-day framework of indirect talks and cessation of hostilities now under discussion, with Pakistan as mediator and Qatar as the financial channel. Islamabad and Switzerland are both being pushed as the signing venue.

Pepe Escobar is a veteran geopolitical correspondent who has covered Eurasian politics and energy for decades; Zulfiqar Ali reports from direct contacts across the Pakistani and Iranian political and military leadership. Claims sourced to those contacts are marked DEVELOPING on screen and are not independently verified. Transition Protocol is a source-driven geopolitics channel covering de-dollarization, BRICS, the multipolar order and the financial consequences of global power shifts.

Pakistan is the latest country to hit back after the White House threatened countries who trade with Iran. China has already said it won’t be taking orders from America. So is this another failed bid by Donald Trump to bend Iran and its backers to his will?

Or could this actually work? Several senior Iranian leaders have recently acknowledged the economic pain that the country and its people are feeling.

Maussan Televisión | Exclusive: The Latest UFO Sightings in the World | Aug. 27, 2026

Source: Maussan Televisión youtube



Description:
Welcome to a new episode of Interestelar with Jaime Maussan. In this exclusive episode, we look at the striking wave of UFO sightings shaking the world in 2026.

From a live broadcast in Guadalajara that captured a green object dissipating in front of the cameras, to extraordinary evidence at the Pyramids of Giza in Egypt, where an object left a trail and released a smaller probe. We examine striking cases in:

- Mexico: Mass sightings in Guanajuato and live captures by Image TV.

- Brazil and Chile: Objects emerging from lunar craters and disc-shaped craft with visible energy.

- New York and New Jersey: The wave that has not stopped since 2024, which the government tries to explain as "drones."

- China: Sensing spheres watching buildings and rhythmic lights in Shandong.

- Japan: An object with the classic "Tic Tac" shape captured with striking clarity.

Are we looking at the prelude to official contact? We also examine the concerning report that the United States has shot down more objects than it admits. This weekly recap covers some of the strongest evidence of the non-human phenomenon. 

Pepe Escobar & Larry Johnson | Hormuz Deal in 24 Hours? Iran–US Deal: Sequencing Agreed SANCTIONS LIFTED | Aug. 27, 2026

Source: Transition Protocol youtube



Description:
A source described by Zulfiqar Ali as the person drafting a Pakistani announcement says Iran and the United States have agreed on a contemporaneous first step: a controlled reopening of the Strait of Hormuz alongside U.S. sanctions and naval-blockade relief.

That claim is not yet publicly corroborated. What is verified is that Pakistan’s mediation channel is active, Iran and Oman are working on a temporary maritime corridor, Hormuz remains severely disrupted, and Washington has just intensified sanctions pressure.

In this urgent Transition Protocol conversation, Pepe Escobar and Larry C. Johnson stress-test the reported Trump–Iran off-ramp: who moves first, what “simultaneous” action would actually mean, whether a 60–90 day indirect process exists, how an oil and fuel shock changes Washington’s choices, and why Trump—or a third-party spoiler—could still collapse the window. The central question is not whether officials sound hopeful. It is whether reciprocal action becomes observable.

Zulfiqar Ali brings source-based reporting from Pakistani and Iranian contacts; Pepe Escobar and former CIA analyst Larry C. Johnson provide geopolitical and security analysis. Transition Protocol is a source-driven geopolitical and economic analysis channel focused on evidence, power shifts, and real-world consequences. Source claims in this episode are identified as developing or uncorroborated where appropriate.

Scott Gearan is a retired U.S. Air Force Pararescueman with an extraordinary story of survival and an unexplained UAP encounter.

In 1987, Scott survived a catastrophic parachuting accident that sent him into the ground at an estimated 100 mph. He recounts the near-death experience that followed, including seeing his body from above, encountering three figures surrounded by light, and ultimately making the choice to come back.

Decades later, Scott photographed a mysterious object over Panama City Beach, Florida, for more than three hours. In this episode, he shares those images, the attempts to explain what he captured, and why he believes the UAP phenomenon could be far stranger - and potentially more biological - than conventional spacecraft.

Pepe Escobar | BREAKING: MUNIR GETS IRAN’S GREEN LIGHT, HE Met the Man Who Threatened to Shut Off Gulf Oil | Aug. 26, 2026

Source: Transition Protocol youtube



Description:
Iran has told Washington that if the United States succeeds in economically suffocating it, not a drop of oil will leave the Gulf — not from Saudi Arabia, not the UAE, not Qatar, not anywhere.

That message was carried out of Tehran this week by Field Marshal Asim Munir and Interior Minister Mohsin Naqvi, and delivered to the acting US ambassador in Islamabad within hours of their return.

Pepe Escobar and Zulfiqar Ali break down the full sequence — the Trump phone call that started it, the six-point mechanism now on the table, the Strait of Hormuz deal-breaker, and the message from Beijing that landed in the room while the talks were still running.

Also in this episode — what Iran is demanding before it returns to the table (frozen assets, sanctions relief, an end to the naval blockade); why the new US Treasury sanctions package is functionally aimed at China; the single American decision that would collapse the entire process overnight; Iran's four-step escalation ladder and the NPT exit that sits on the first rung; and why both analysts now describe this as the last chance saloon. Chapter markers below.

Pepe Escobar is a globally recognised geopolitical correspondent covering Eurasia, BRICS and the multipolar transition. Zulfiqar Ali reports from direct channels in Islamabad and Tehran.

Robert Bigelow & Brandon Fugal | Meeting of the Moguls | Bigelow Podcast Ep. 4 | Aug. 25, 2026

Source: Bigelow Podcast youtube



Description: 
Las Vegas aerospace tycoon Robert Bigelow and Utah real estate magnate Brandon Fugal have not spoken to each other since 2016, which is when they met to transfer ownership of Skinwalker Ranch from Bigelow to Fugal. 

Bigelow owned the now famous paranormal hotspot for 20 years, during which his NIDS organization, as well as investigators working for the DIA's classified effort known as AAWSAP, tried to understand the bizarre range of UFO incidents, cryptid creatures, animal mutilations, and other inexplicable phenomena. 

Fugal, who described himself as a skeptic, purchased the property in 2016 with the idea of turning it into a campground for Boy Scout gatherings, but has since changed his mind and authorized the production of the popular TV series The Secret of Skinwalker Ranch.

For the first time ever, the two businessmen met in Las Vegas to compare notes, discuss the history of the ranch (including aspects that have never been made public), and to evaluate how the investigation of the ranch fits into the larger context of how humanity might learn to understand its relationship with non-human intelligences.

Larry Johnson | Bessent’s “Biggest Sanctions” FAILS Iran Moves Toward Mecca Pact as Trump Begs Pak for an Off-Ramp | Aug. 24, 2026

Source: Transition Protocol youtube



Description:
Iran has been formally invited to join the Mecca Agreement — the trilateral defense pact between Pakistan, Saudi Arabia, and Turkey — with enthusiastic engagement already underway between Islamabad and Tehran, according to sources detailed in this episode.

The same day, Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent’s long-promised "maximum pressure" sanctions rollout landed with no new named targets, prompting military analyst Larry Johnson to call it "a mouse fart" instead of the "volcanic eruption" that had been advertised.

Host Zulfiqar Ali and Larry Johnson break down what it means that Bahrain has asked to join the Pakistan-Saudi military pact, why the United States is now in a structural sour-crude oil shortage, and how China’s multi-year effort to broker Saudi-Iran détente is now visibly reshaping the Persian Gulf.

Larry Johnson is a former CIA analyst and military analyst who has covered Middle East security and U.S. foreign policy for decades. Zulfiqar Ali reports directly from sources inside Pakistani political and military circles. Some claims in this episode are based on privileged source reporting and are clearly marked as developing rather than independently confirmed.

Dr. Eric Davis | Physicist Breaks Silence on Skinwalker Ranch and UFOs | THIRD EYE DROPS with Michael Phillip | Aug. 25, 2026

Source: THIRD EYE DROPS with Michael Phillip youtube



Description:
Eric Davis has spent decades working at the strange intersection of advanced physics, UFOs, intelligence programs, and high strangeness. A physicist and longtime colleague of Hal Puthoff, Davis worked with Robert Bigelow’s NIDS, investigated Skinwalker Ranch, and later became involved with the DIA’s AAWSAP program studying anomalous aerospace phenomena, UFOs and classified reverse engineering efforts.

In this conversation, we get into what Davis says he witnessed at Skinwalker Ranch, the role of consciousness and telepathy in the phenomenon, classified UAP research, alleged crash-retrieval programs, advanced propulsion, non-human intelligence, and what he says the U.S. government may actually know about UFOs.

This is a singular conversation with one of the most fascinating figures at the center of modern UAP disclosure.

Description: 
Laith Marouf and Ehsan Safarnejad with Deep Dive Perspective on whether Iran's stand has broken Washington's ability to project power in the Middle East.

Ehsan argues Iran's domestically built industrial base and resilience under sanctions allowed Tehran to push back where other states could not. Laith argues recent events signal the end of Western naval projection and a century of air-power dominance, challenged by drones and hypersonic missiles.

They discuss failed attempts to divide Iran internally, US policy as bipartisan, geography and strategic depth, nuclear and non-nuclear deterrence, and asymmetric warfare as practiced by regional resistance groups.
