The Man on the Moon Takes Ozempic: ETs and Hollow Lunar Landings with Author Rob Shelsky
If you enjoy this podcast, leave a review! Even a sentence can help. We want to hear your freaky-deaky voice. Go to www.ratethispodcast.com/openloopsNo guest on Open Loops can say definitively what's happening with UFOs, extraterrestrial contact, or even the freakin' moon. Two episodes ago, we had someone telling us that the moon was essentially a directed energy weapon of the depths of hell that Neil Armstrong filmed a good TikTok on once. We've heard it all on this show. We've never been there, it was a film set, the moon is a starship, it's not actually "Goodnight Moon," it's "Good Morning" but the old lady in the chair has been isolated for 14 years and has no tangible grasp on reality, We've heard all the contradictions. We've heard all the crackpot theories. But now it's 2024....the year of true "Alien Disclosure" (supposedly). ...so Greg's gung ho on going to go get himself even confused by whatever the #$#@! that thing is in the night sky. On this episode, Greg welcomes prolific researcher and author Rob Shelsky to take on all things anomalous in outer space. He guides us through the eerie terrains of enigmas like the Hollow Moon theory and the Mandela Effect. As we traverse these shadowy topics, we delve into Rob's own spine-chilling encounters from Down Under—experiences that ignited his quest for the truth amidst the world's most perplexing mysteries including: The Alien Agenda and UFO EvidenceThe Moon UFO Cover-UpsTime Travel, Hoaxes, and Hidden Bases Unusual Claims About Extraterrestrial ActivityMoon Landings and Secret Space ProgramsShadow People and EvidenceSure, it's a list shorter than Jeffrey's, but it's still intriguing! Get ready for an episode that'll blow your mind into little moon rocks that you can probably get a few bucks for at a Tampa flea market. It's Open Loops.

A device created by a little-known inventor named Steven Gibbs. A device, that when properly activated, allows you to travel through other dimensions of time.

Fifty Shades of Greys with Mr. Grey, Extraterrestrial Experiencer
Some call him Yan, some call him Mr. Grey. Some don't call him at all. It's much easier to sneak into his window at night, freeze time and space, bring him onto their craft and communicate telepathically than it is to leave a voicemail apparently....Mr. Grey is an E.T. Experiencer, as well as host and producer of the YouTube channel "Experiencer Interviews."He's been an Experiencer since the age of 3 years old and then things really ramped up after college. From visions to Angels, as well as unexplainably accurate psychic predictions (and remote viewing and communications with the afterlife and a slew of other anomalous phenomena.....geez, can't this guy just have a normal night out at Applebee's?!), Yan believes it is his mission to tell his story as well as share the stories of others to normalize these experiences in the public sphere. He joins Greg to discuss: (00:13) - Experiences With ETs(15:06) - Exploring Psychic Experiences and ET Connections(26:13) - The Complex Perspectives on the Greys(38:07) - Shadow Beings and Paranormal Experiences(53:47) - Abductions and Missing Fetuses(57:35) - UFOs and Screen Images(01:07:02) - Overcoming Fear and Changing UFO Beliefs(01:14:36) - Debating the Benevolence of Extraterrestrials(01:21:54) - UFO Sightings and Fear of Repercussions(01:28:17) - Controversy and the Alien Hybrid ProgramSo yes, while the title of this episode doesn't have much to do with Mormon erotica spin-offs from teenage vampire fiction, there still might be probes involved. Trick or trea--OUCH! ...it's Open Loops! MR. GREY'S LINKS: https://www.youtube.com/@ExperiencerInterviews/featuredhttps://www.facebook.com/ExperiencerInterviewsOfficial

Here's The Point: A Moment of Clarity?
Did Greg finally organize his thoughts? Some call him the Oracle of Overthink...most don't. Listen as Greg reflects on the overabundance of things in our world, and a brief moment of calm after he gave his own overwhelm some order.

If a Conspiracy Theorist Falls in a Forest and No One is Around To Hear It...Doesn't That Seem Awfully Convenient? with Author and Pastor John Kirwin
Mandela effects, Flat Earth, Big Pharma, The Federal Reserve, The Moon Landing.....Do you think it's still okay to question the official narratives? Pastor and Author of "The Conspiracy Theorist Survival Guide - A Guidebook for Persecuted Truthers" John Kirwin is here to stand up for you, as well as debate all the mainstream defenders. He joins Greg to discuss his journey to distrust, as well as the role of faith versus fact when it comes to looking for alternative explanations for the way things actually work in this world. This is a conspiracy theorist Olympics. When Greg fed the transcript of this episode to ChatGPT, he was honored a gold medal for content policy violations and he's never been more proud.John even runs Greg through his proof for the Mandela Effect (everything you thought you knew about it is about to blow up like a CIA inside job!) It's philosophical, it's inflammatory, it's thought-provoking, it's epistemological, and above all else... it's Open Loops.
