Mysterious Matters: Archive - Dark Matter AM 2026

The nine waves of creation are frequencies and vibrations that originated from what is known as the big bang.  But to date nobody has been able to explain exactly what it was that triggered the Big Bang. On Mysterious Matters episode 90, and the last episode of 2016, we will touch on the Nine Waves of Creation: Quantum Physics, Holographic Evolution, and the Destiny of Humanity.  Joining us today is Carl Johan Calleman.   Dr. Carl Calleman’s theory is one where the big bang— supposed creator of our universe— was but one branch, of thousands of branches, of a cosmological tree of life. Topics touched on include: ► Does quantum physics offer a definitive answer that combines both the belief of creation, and of evolution? ► Are we speeding toward a new wave of evolution? ► Is it possible that memories from our ancestors could be passed down from generation to generation through either genetic material or another form of invisible natural, but unknown phenomenon? ► If life is a holographic illusion, then what is the purpose of life, and in the same token why create different religious belief systems focusing on various Gods when we are in all probability communicating the same universal being of consciousness? ► If nobody is around to hear a tree fall, does it still make a sound? ► Would it be possible for someone to hack into these waves of creation and thereby being able to possess an individual, or several individuals, to manipulate thoughts and actions? ► Are these nine waves of creation spoken of in the book of Revelation, in the Christian bible, through a symbolic form known as the seven trumpets? ►Does the nine waves of creation theory have room for explaining the existence of parallel universes And more!

Legendary Broadcaster, Ian Punnett joined Mysterious Matters to discuss his days working in Nashville, TN (WKDF) to his days at Coast to Coast AM. In this episode, you will get an intimate look into the life of Ian Punnett.   Bob and Ian discuss if Coast to Coast AM of today with George Noory is more corporate controlled than it was when Art Bell had been at the height of his success.   The discussion of Talk Radio continues as Bob mentions some of his mentors and how Teddy Bart of Nashville, TN had created a show like Coast to Coast AM back in 1987 (prior to Art Bell even contemplated a move away from politics).    Ian said, “Art Bell had been lucky, he was at the right place at the right time, with the right voice and content. Other people have done similar content driven shows but never reached Art’s success. It was like catching lighting in a bottle.”     Bob and Ian then turn the discussion to focus on Ian's new True Crime book called "A Black Night for the Bluegrass Belle". It focuses on the murder of his grandmother's first cousin, Verna Garr Taylor.   This is the classic tale of unrequited love gone horribly wrong and justice was almost never dished out. That's what happens when you're a rich and powerful person with friends in high places. As a white male in the 1930’s, former Brigadier General, and Lt Governor of Kentucky, Henry Denhardt felt as though he was untouchable. Prior to Vena Garr Taylor’s death there was another…and Denhardt was seen at the location of another woman’s death (Patricia Wilson). Her ghost has since been known to haunt the hotel in which her physical body was either thrown down an elevator shaft or she accidentally fell into it. This ghost is known as, The Blue Lady of Seelbach Hilton (Louisville, KY). Whether Denhardt was responsible for Patricia Wilson’s death… nobody will ever know. But Denhardt was a narcissistic sociopath. It was also brought up how it appears, President Elect Donald Trump shares a lot of the same narcissistic sociopath (or psychopath) characteristics with Henry Denhardt.

John Hogue, a world-renowned Nostradamus expert, joined Mysterious Matters during a two-day recording session. Day one focused on the 2016 Presidential election, subsequent protests, and predictions for Donald Trump’s Presidency.   Day two focused on John’s Predictions for 2017-2021, as well as his spiritual journey to becoming the man he is today. He takes us back through the years and shares soul deep information from his past. We are like a fly on the wall as John Hogue makes his way to India in search for something that had been missing in his life.    Who knew that John Hogue was a body guard, or even an exorcist?! He reveals all, exclusively on this edition of the Mysterious Matters, Paranormal and Culture Podcast.   Topic include: ► Which came first, John’s spiritual journey or his being a classically trained musician ► John Hogue’s research into global warming ► How a spiritual master chooses his/her apprentice/student of their spiritual guidance These and so much more awaits you on this second part, two hour long, edition of our discussion with John Hogue.

Now that Donald Trump has been elected the 45th President of the United States of America, what does he have in store for us? We were wondering the same and invited world renowned Nostradamus expert, John Hogue, to sit down for a discussion of the past election, the protests that have erupted, and a forecast for what may as well be called the Trump Prophecies. Part 1 focuses on the election, the protests, how Hillary Clinton lost and how she could have won (Bernie Sanders should have been her Vice-Presidential Candidate). Half of all American Citizens are now fearful of what 2017 may bring to the lifelong pursuit of Life, Liberty, and the American Way. The reason for their fears is the belief that President elect, Donald Trump is an elitist one-percenter with no loyalties to anyone but his own bottom line—and he has been given the key to our nation’s future. 2017 is the beginning of the journey toward uncharted territory, not only for the United States of America, but also for all nations whom have ties with it. The protests happening across the nation, they are not done because a Republican won the office of President. These protests are happening because of Donald Trump’s own message of hate, his own message which does not represent the United States of America or its dream of welcoming all legal immigrants to our land.

Country music in its purest form is about the expression of emotions and experiences. A country song is made with story elements related to love, broken hearts, drugs, hardships, suicidal thoughts, and sometimes all in one song.  Now that isn’t to say country songs can’t be energetic, fun, and filled with good times…but those types aren’t expressed all the time.  The purest elements of country music are, or have largely been about the saddest moments of a person’s life.  So, it isn’t much a stretch to believe that some of the legendary musicians of country music may not have ever moved on to the other side.   But instead their spiritual energy may still roam from town to town, or perhaps preferring to stick around places—or people—they once loved or knew while alive.  Our guest this on this edition of the podcast is Penn State researcher and journalist, Matt Swayne. Matt has written numerous books, and the Ghosts of Country Music is the second such “Ghosts of” book, his first focused on the Ghosts of Rock and Roll.  

Bob shares some of his personal experiences (and of experience of his brother) with an invisible presence.  Happy Halloween!

England is said to be an ancient land between realms and this could explain the many mystical characters in its illustrious history. Today we explore the myths, the urban legends, and an occasional ghost story of England’s history. John Matthews joined Mysterious Matters to discuss a Terrifying Victorian legend known as Spring-Heeled Jack. Spring-Heeled Jack was a tall, thin, bounding figure with bat-like wings (Many wonder if Bob Kane had known about this legendary figure prior to creating Batman), clawed hands, wheels of fire for eyes and breathed blue flames. He first leapt into public attention during the Victorian era of London England; springing over hedges and walls, from dark lanes and dark graveyards to frighten and sometimes physically attack people (curiously Spring-Heeled Jack mostly attacked women). Also, brought up in discussion: ► Is there any truth to England being a land between realms (our realm and another) ► What is the legend of Spring-Heeled Jack ► What was Spring-Heeled Jack; Man, Demon or something else ►Is there physical evidence of such a person or being existed ► With Spring-heeled jack sporting knife like claws, could there be a connection between spring heeled-jack and jack the ripper? ► Were beings like Spring-heeled Jack, and the Krampus something along the lines of a Tulpa ► Has there been other reports of spring-heeled jack type beings around the world ►Spring-Heeled Jack’s popularity in the Steampunk Community ►Robin of Sherwood Forrest ► King Arthur ► Herne the Hunter (gathers souls of the departed) Plus more!
