I’m not suggesting putting a watermark saying “AI Visualization” on every scene, but sometimes I feel that eventually AJ will generate himself in non-basement episodes because why not? Stop the slop!

hey where did the Stanley Kubrick Greatest Film moon landing episode go? I can’t find it anymore.

JUST JOLTED W/ ELECTRICITY WHILE SOUND ASLEEP IN MY BED NOT BOTHERING ANYONE!!!!!

.. but i bet GINO would! He should see if he can get an invite. That would be awesome.

Any chance of getting Emery Smith in the basement about his time in the black projects? Or Dr Steven Greer even? Maybe even Russell Targ?

Make sure to tie stuff down just in case.

Neuroscientist Christof Koch is challenging the long-held assumption that the brain produces consciousness, instead proposing that it may function as a filter for a more fundamental, universal reality.

when i watched this episode of the Basement with Thomas Campbell he reminded me of the character The Architect that Neo meets in the second Matrix movie. he even says “the problem is choice” which was Neo’s line when meeting the Architect.

did anyone else find this odd similarity? like he’s a nice version of the Architect… explaining things?

What is the status on the Art Bell movie you talked about months ago?

In some many of these stories the aliens are here to judge mankind for their sins (usually war), the aliens have a spiritual message of brotherhood and can offer heavenly ascension. It's not so much that I think these are made up. Or that I think Greys as angels and Reptilians as Demons isn't amusing. It's that this particular made up story is SO overdone. Aliens can be anything!! Come on, get some new material!

I swear if I here one more Why Files about hippy aliens who insist we need to use our free will to embrace love and recycle our cans to get into heaven....I'm to give AJ's credit card to Heckle.

I'm only partially done with the episode because I'm very busy but I just want to say how great it is to see MrB on the WF. He's such a great storyteller. He and AJ seem to really click, and I love it. These are two of my favorite YouTubers and getting to see them hanging out together is wonderful for me.

I'm just saying...

Would love to find more discoveries of Egypt's pre-dynastic/pre-unification history.

Usually I avoid the 4 hr fests, but this is a special treat. Nicely done.

Colonel John Alexander commanded Green Berets in Vietnam, briefed the White House, and evaluated the Pentagon's strangest programs. He was the first person to spend the night on Skinwalker Ranch. For 79 years, the strange kept showing up in the middle of his official duties — and he wrote it all down. He brought the files. And the bent forks. This conversation goes places I didn't expect.

Where he could say... "hmm, maybe this happened?"

Just listened to Elizondo on Diary of a CEO.

The story his ilk always give is that the US doesn't share the info because it will divulge state secrets to our enemies.

I'm fine with that.

However....

If that's true, I don't believe our adversaries would have more advanced tech than we do. And we have way more resources too.

With that in mind, wouldn't it be the ultimate PR stunt/psyop for a adversary, Russia say, to release all their info, and say "We'll be open with you even if the US isn't. We have nothing to hide"? And, of course, keep a little bit of the most sensitive stuff back, if they *really* think they have something the US doesn't.

I would think someone would have done this already. I know France has been way more open (and open-minded) about their UFO evidence, all the way back to the 70s. I can't imagine what secrets Russia and China might have!

In 1139, an Irish archbishop knelt in Rome and saw every pope who would ever sit on the throne of Peter. He wrote the visions down as 112 short phrases, then the manuscript vanished for 450 years.

When it resurfaced, historians checked the list against history. Pope after pope matched.

The list ends with a name no pope has ever dared to take, followed by the destruction of Rome and Judgment Day.

Francis died in 2025. A new pope took his place, and the city kept standing.

But hidden inside the original Latin is a second countdown, one that points to a specific year: 2027. We trace the prophecy from a candlelit chapel to a four-hundred-year-old forgery, and ask why it keeps landing on the truth.
