Thanks a Million: Year End Wrap and Story of The Why Files

Here's how it happens. You're drifting off to sleep; or maybe you wake up in the middle of the night. You feel a presence in the room. You see something out of the corner of your eye. You try to look but you can't move. You try to call out, but you're unable to make a sound. There's an invisible weight on your chest. Even breathing is difficult. You strain to look and then you see it. The shadow of a person. You can't detect any features but every instinct you have tells you: this is entity is not friendly. You hear a light hum, maybe a rush of air and the dark entity vanishes. You've just encountered a shadow person.  This one was pretty benign, but there are some shadow people sightings that are more intense. More real. These encounters can be traumatic and in some cases: violent. I should know. Because it happened to me. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/thewhyfiles/support

In 1908, President Teddy Roosevelt wanted to declare the Grand Canyon off-limits to all timber and mining operations. It would take another 11 years for Congress to designate the Grand Canyon a national park. Sensing a final opportunity for adventure, explorer G.E. Kincaid took a boat down the Colorado River and through the Grand Canyon. The canyon was rich in minerals like gold, silver and copper and Kincaid wanted to see what he could find before the area was closed off for good. About 40 miles up-river from the El Tovar Crystal canyon, Kincaid saw stains in the sediment formation about 2,000 feet up. He tied off the boat and got out to investigate. Kincaid couldn't find a trail, but after a short hike he found something interesting covered in desert brush. Steps. Hundreds of them. Carved in sandstone. Steps that wound their way up to a high shelf on the side of the canyon. He followed the steps until he came across a cavern entrance. An entrance that was clearly man made. Kincaid entered the cavern and turned on his flashlight. On the walls he saw writing. But it wasn't English or Native American writing. It was Ancient Egyptian Heiroglypics. Kincaid lifted his flashlight and saw that the tunnel ran far into the distance. He didn't realize it at the time, but this was only the beginning. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/thewhyfiles/support

Here's the nightmare scenario. You stop by your elderly mother's house to check on her. You grab the doorknob. It's hot to the touch. You ring the bell and knock. No answer. You fish out your key and open the door. You call out but there's only silence. The air is warm. There's a sweet, smoky smell. But, nothing looks out of place. Finally, you go into the living room and you see it. In your mom's favorite chair, is a pile of smoldering ash. Completely unrecognizable as human. Just as you convince yourself that this isn't your mother, you see her jewelry in the gray dust. And then the grisly sight of your mother's feet, still in their slippers, on the floor by the ashes. There was a fire. An intense fire. But aside from her chair, nothing is burned. Even stranger, everything in the house is covered with a thin layer of pale yellow grease. Your mother was a victim of spontaneous human combustion. Though rare, it happens more often than you think. According to at least one scientist, it could happen to anybody at any time — even you. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/thewhyfiles/support

ALIEN WAR at The Dulce Underground Base | They Mysterious Death of Phil Schneider Everyone's heard of Area 51. The top-secret facility in the Nevada desert.

Those aliens have been autopsied and the subjects of medical experiments for years. But have you ever heard of Dulce Base? Dulce is more secret than Area 51. And more sinister. If Area 51 is the place where humans experiment on aliens; Dulce is the place where aliens experiment on us. #UFOs #Conspiracy #Aliens 〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰 EXECUTIVE PRODUCERS: Gino Gentile Jennifer Gentile AJ Gentile Patreon Members THANK YOU MODS: Daniel_Van_Auken jengen13 pratty505 VictoriaY Jschoop Zanythos 〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰 SOURCES & LINKS Bentwaters-Lakenheath UFO report: https://www.cia.gov/readingroom/docs/CIA-RDP81R00560R000100010010-0.pdf FBI Mutilations report: https://vault.fbi.gov/Animal%20Mutilation/Animal%20Mutilation%20Part%205%20of%205 Kirtland AFB Sightings: https://www.unexplainable.net/ufo-alien/1980-kirtland-afb-nm-ufo-sightings-foia-documents.php Phil Schneider Preparedness Expo: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qTTYd6JwQ90 Dulce Base The Truth and Evidence from the Case Files of Gabe Valdez: https://amzn.to/3DylYVb The Airforce UFO Cover Up That Drove a Man INSANE | They're LYING to US: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kJQ_FsmU19g https://www.findagrave.com/memorial/3930946/oscar-schneider Phil final lecture: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oeu3-9DoUnk https://web.archive.org/web/20080723164059/https://exopolitics.org/Dulce-Report.htm Thomas Castello Interview: https://www.bibliotecapleyades.net/branton/esp_dulcebook11.htm Castello speaks out: https://www.alienhub.com/threads/a-terminally-ill-thomas-edwin-castello-speaks-out.21550/ Saucers, Spooks and Kooks: UFO Disinformation in the Age of Aquarius: https://amzn.to/3UezW3B John Lear on the UFO Coverup: https://www.sacred-texts.com/ufo/coverup.htm --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/thewhyfiles/support
