VERITAS by Mel

Tonight on Veritas, our special guest is Dr. Scott Kolbaba. He is a physician who has spent a lifetime balancing science and mystery. Every day he walks into hospital rooms filled with the hum of machines, the steady rhythm of monitors, and the fragile trust of people who want answers. But medicine, for all its charts and precision, leaves space for what no one can measure. Moments that refuse to be filed away under coincidence. Moments that doctors remember long after the discharge summary fades. Dr. Kolbaba began to notice a quiet pattern among his peers. Stories whispered after meetings, in cafeteria corners, and during long drives home from late-night shifts. Stories that carried weight, and sometimes tears. A surgeon who feels guided to act before the data is clear. A patient who speaks of a scene she could not have seen. A doctor who senses a goodbye before the call ever comes. These were physicians who had seen too much to invent. Men and women who had given their lives to the measurable, yet had been touched by what cannot be graphed. For three years, Dr. Kolbaba listened. He collected their accounts. He studied them with the same care he once gave to x-rays and lab results. And what he found was a record of moments that challenge how we define evidence. Tonight, we enter that space between the known and the felt. We will ask what these events mean for science, for faith, and for the people who live at their intersection. We will consider whether healing sometimes begins before a doctor even enters the room. And we will listen for the quiet proof that lives where medicine meets mystery.

Tonight on VERITAS, our special guest is Charles J. Poloka. Charles is not just a researcher or investigator. He says he is a precog. That means he has received visions of events before they occurred. Some of them saved his life. Others warned of major public incidents. In at least one case, he was a key witness in court. His testimony was on the record. But this interview is about more than what he saw. It is about what we are all capable of. We will explore how he receives these visions, what they feel like, and what happens when he acts on them. We will ask him to walk us through the moments where life and death hung in the balance. He believes this ability is not rare. It is natural. And it can be awakened. Charles also brings insight into subjects most never dare to confront. From childhood UFO sightings to night vision skywatching, from the effects of high frequency technologies to firsthand spiritual warfare, his story crosses into hidden territories that are affecting us all. Whether or not you believe in prophecy, visions, or fate, this is a conversation that might change the way you think about your own instincts. Your own signals. Your own warnings.

Tonight on Veritas, our special guest is Michael Cremo. For decades, Michael Cremo has challenged the foundations of science. Known as the forbidden archeologist, his work has sparked debate, controversy, and fascination. His book Forbidden Archeology questioned the belief that humans have only been present for a short span of time. Now, after years of investigation and discovery, Michael presents his newest research in Extreme Human Antiquity. The book reveals startling evidence of human remains, artifacts, and footprints that reach far beyond accepted timelines. Some cases point not to thousands of years, but to millions and even hundreds of millions. If this evidence is genuine, it changes everything we have been taught about history. Why then is it so little known? Has science ignored it, dismissed it, or even concealed it? Michael Cremo believes much of what we call scientific consensus is shaped by what he calls knowledge filtration. This is the quiet process where discoveries that do not fit the standard picture are pushed aside. His work asks us to reconsider not only where we came from, but how long we have been here. Cremo also draws from the Vedic tradition, blending his research with spiritual insights. What if humanity has always been here? What if consciousness itself is far older than materialist science allows? Tonight, we enter a journey into forbidden discoveries, suppressed evidence, and the possibility that our story is far older than we have ever imagined.

Tonight on Veritas... our special guest is Ryan Wardman. The last time we spoke, Ryan had just begun his modern odyssey. Since then, he has kept moving, kept searching, and kept asking the kinds of questions most people avoid. In the past year alone, Ryan has spent months in Odessa on the Black Sea, traveled through Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, and Uzbekistan, explored the caves of Georgia, returned to the pyramids of Egypt, stood among the stones of Samarkand, and climbed the highlands of Scotland. He promoted a film in Paris and now calls Moldova his base of operations. Along the way, he has focused on some of the biggest mysteries of our time. The Moon. The Ark of the Covenant. The rise of digital identity and human 2.0. The mass migration changing Europe. He has seen events firsthand that do not match the official story, and he has experienced moments that defy easy explanation, including a glowing orb that appeared to him one night in Stockholm. Tonight, we continue the conversation. What has Ryan seen. What has he learned. And what does his journey reveal about the world we now face together. <strong>Lan</strong> is the Welsh word for "pure." This is the featured song for this VERITAS episode. It is based on the Welsh folk song <em>Lisa Lan</em>, performed in the original language. The vocals speak of love, grief, and memory. The arrangement combines ancient melody with modern cinematic elements to reflect the emotional depth and mystery of Ryan Wardman's journey.

Tonight on Veritas, our special guest is Ashlea Stinnett. For 17 years, I have never done a full interview on the subject of Bigfoot or Sasquatch. Why? Because like many of you, I thought this was a subject born of hoaxes, internet pranks, and too much imagination. But in recent years, credible and respectable people have come forward with information that challenged me to look again. And tonight, we open that door. Our guest, Ashlea Stinnett, is not just a witness. She is a student of the Sasquatch People. Since her first conscious encounter in 2013 near Mount Adams, Washington, she has experienced telepathic communication, body scans, orbs of living light, and over 1,500 UFO sightings. She has camped in their homelands, received their gifts, and witnessed their humor. What emerges is a picture of beings who are not monsters, but a People with wisdom, compassion, and a connection to dimensions we barely understand. So tonight, we ask: Who are they? What do they want to teach us? And what does it mean for the future of humanity if they are real?

Tonight on Veritas, our special guest is Charles Ross. He was born in East Germany, raised in the heart of Shakespeare's Stratford-upon-Avon, traveled through Africa, and now makes his home in Taiwan. That life journey has given him a perspective few can claim. It is the perspective of someone who notices what others overlook. Charles speaks of walking down streets in Taiwan and experiencing powerful deja vu. He sees train stations, cobbled alleys, Roman villages, even European architecture that simply should not be there. While most pass by without a second thought, he feels a memory that seems older than the place itself. It is as if the stones are speaking, and he happens to be listening. His research takes us across continents and across time. We will explore heraldry where Black royals appear in coats of arms, yet are later labeled as servants. We will ask why lions, towers, and crowns appear in families whose names remain common today. We will look at maps that once displayed Tartaria, a vast land now erased from mainstream history. We will study statues and crests that feature the double-headed eagle, a symbol carried by empires from Austria to Russia. Why does it appear everywhere, and what story does it tell? Charles also leads us into the world of technology and architecture. We will examine photographs of the great World Fairs, filled with palaces and domes that appeared and vanished within a season. We will discuss Tesla, the Baghdad battery, and energy systems that may have promised free power for humanity. We will consider pyramids in China that remain hidden from researchers, and the strange harmony between sacred geometry, human anatomy, and music itself. What emerges is not just a story about history, but about us. Who we are, where we come from, and why certain truths seem to be buried while others are celebrated. Tonight, Charles Ross joins us to bring forward those forgotten fragments, and to ask us to see with new eyes.

Tonight on Veritas, our special guest is Steve Goreham. He's an engineer, author, and researcher who has spent years challenging the dominant narrative on energy, climate, and environmental policy. His new book, Green Breakdown: The Coming Renewable Energy Failure, argues that the world's rush toward wind, solar, and net zero policies is not only unsustainable, but potentially catastrophic for human prosperity. For decades, Goreham has studied the intersection of science, politics, and economics. He believes that climate fear, what he calls Climatism, has pushed governments, corporations, and citizens into costly energy decisions that don't align with reality. In this interview, we'll explore whether rising temperatures truly threaten civilization, whether carbon dioxide is a pollutant or a gift, and whether hurricanes, wildfires, and droughts are really getting worse, or whether we've been misled. We'll also examine why so many proposed solutions, from banning gas stoves, to outlawing coal plants, to forcing electric cars, may cause more harm than good. From the push to eliminate meat and dairy in world cities, to the trillion dollar subsidies behind renewable power, to the looming consequences for industry, agriculture, and the everyday person, Steve Goreham pulls no punches. He believes the seeds of failure are already here, and that unless society shifts course, the green dream may end in economic and human disaster. Tonight, we'll test those claims, challenge the assumptions, and seek the truth about energy, climate, and our future.

Tonight on VERITAS, our special guest is <strong>Andy Thomas</strong>. For more than thirty years, Andy has been a voice for the unexplained. He has spoken to thousands, heard their secrets, and carried their stories into the light. His latest work, <strong><em>Strange: Paranormal Realities in the Everyday World</em></strong>, continues that journey with powerful accounts of encounters people rarely dare to share. Ghosts that step into quiet rooms. Voices that reach across the veil. Lights in the sky that move as if the laws of nature no longer apply. Premonitions that arrive uninvited and prove themselves with chilling accuracy. Ordinary men and women, teachers, soldiers, doctors, parents, people from every walk of life, who would never call themselves mystics, yet found themselves face to face with the extraordinary. Many kept silent for years, until they found someone they could trust. Andy has listened. He has compared their accounts. And he has added his own encounters, moments that changed how he sees the world, and may change how you see it too. Tonight, we step into that hidden space where the strange is not rare but part of everyday life.

Welcome to Veritas Vox Populi: where the people speak their truth. Tonight, we bring you the story of a man who worked inside a top U.S. defense contractor's division, involved with some of the most advanced electromagnetic and missile defense technologies. To protect his privacy, we will call him Derek Tillman, a name he has chosen for this conversation. At first, the technology seemed almost unbelievable. High power microwave control systems, automated aircraft launch and recovery, and secret DARPA silent talk projects. But after leaving the industry, Derek faced a hidden threat - electronic harassment, voice to skull attacks, stalking, and verbal intimidation that deeply affected his life. Tonight's audio-only conversation explores what he witnessed, endured, and what it means for freedom today.

<strong>Tonight on Veritas</strong> our special guest is <strong>Avi Loeb, Ph.D.</strong> <strong>Harvard astrophysicist</strong> and <strong>visionary thinker</strong> whose bold ideas have ignited debate and curiosity around the world. Known for challenging conventional wisdom and asking questions most scientists avoid, Dr. Loeb now turns his attention to an extraordinary visitor from deep space, the interstellar object <strong>3I ATLAS</strong>, currently racing toward our solar system at sixty kilometers per second. This <strong>Manhattan sized enigma</strong> is unlike anything we have ever seen. Arriving from the direction of the <strong>Milky Way’s center</strong>, it carries only a <strong>0.005 percent chance</strong> of being a natural object according to Loeb’s calculations. If he is correct, then we are not simply looking at a chunk of rock from another star system. We may be watching an <strong>artificial craft</strong>, perhaps a probe, on a deliberate journey toward our cosmic neighborhood. Its closest approach is expected in <strong>November</strong>. Which raises the questions that have electrified scientists and captivated the public. If this is a visitor from another civilization, <em>do they come in peace</em>? <em>What is their purpose</em>? <em>And why now</em>? Since its discovery, <strong>3I ATLAS</strong> has fueled urgent investigation. Astronomers are racing to capture every bit of data before it disappears into interstellar darkness. And while most focus on the science, an <strong>unverified online claim</strong> has added a strange twist, that a signal was received in <strong>Chile</strong> and decoded with the help of <strong>artificial intelligence</strong>. Its authenticity is unproven, but its mere existence shows how quickly mystery can ignite the imagination. Tonight we will explore the science, the speculation, the implications for humanity, and the very real question of whether we are prepared for whatever <strong>3I ATLAS</strong> may bring. By the end of this conversation you will have a front row seat to one of the most remarkable and perhaps defining moments in human history.
