Ryan and Alex sit down with Ignacio Díaz Jr., Director of Music Strategy and Development and Audio Engineer at The Monroe Institute. They explore the intersection of meditation, consciousness, and sound, diving into Monroe Sound Science, the role of music in altered states, and Ignacio’s path to becoming one of the leading audio engineers shaping the Institute’s immersive experiences.

Ryan and Alex delve into the true meaning of "apocalypse" as revelation rather than destruction. They explore various cultural prophecies and the underlying patterns connecting them. A captivating discussion unfolds about a lady's message, hinting at a potential shift in 2026, tied to celestial alignments and personal dreams. The role of angels, dark forces, and the significance of spiritual growth during this time are also examined. Overall, it’s a thought-provoking exploration of what humanity might face in the coming years.

In this episode, Ryan is joined by Thomas Campbell, a physicist, consciousness researcher, and author of My Big TOE (Theory of Everything). Tom began his career working with Robert Monroe in the early 1970s, exploring altered states of consciousness and the nature of reality itself. Ryan and Tom dive into Tom’s journey from a strictly materialist worldview to a deeply experiential understanding of consciousness. They discuss out-of-body experiences, the role of intent in shaping reality, the Monroe Institute, reducing entropy through love and kindness, and how expanding awareness may be the key to our evolution both individually and collectively.

In Part 2 of the full telling of the Bledsoe story, Ryan revisits his father's encounter with the Lady and how it caught the attention of the Vatican and government agencies. He also shares details of a significant sighting of a light being that appeared over the pond outside the family home in 2019, and how these beings interact differently now than they did in the beginning.

For the first time on Bledsoe Said So, Ryan shares the complete, unbroken story of his family’s extraordinary encounters told in full, from his father’s first experience on the Cape Fear River in 2007 to just after the release of a Discovery Channel documentary that sensationalized and distorted their story. Stay tuned for Part 2.

Ryan and Alex are joined by Ryan's eldest brother, Chris Jr., to dive into childhood memories, the weight of religious and social suppression, and the journey of breaking free. They explore the existential shock of encountering supernatural beings, the search for understanding God, and the practice of praying for orbs to appear. Along the way, Chris Jr. reflects on lessons from his father and even swap stories about the lighter side of life, like paintball.

Ryan and Alex explore the goddess through history, tracing her presence in reported apparitions over the last thousand years. They discuss her ties to Gnosticism, how she was transformed into the figure of the Mother Mary within Christian doctrine, and why her story was largely removed from the mainstream tradition. They also dive into her significance in the UFO phenomenon and examine her fundamental role in shaping the very fabric of reality.

Ryan and Alex welcome back Tom Barber, vocalist of Chelsea Grin and Darko, for his second appearance on Bledsoe Said So. In this conversation, Tom opens up about his personal orb sightings since his last time on the show, how they’ve reshaped his outlook on life, and the way others now seek him out to share their own experiences. They dive into the creative process of channeling both darkness and light into music, exploring the real-world impact lyrics can have on listeners. Tom also recalls moments of convincing skeptics, and even drawing crowds, to witness the phenomenon for themselves.

Ryan and Jennifer share their experience at the Psi Games 2025 in Charlottesville, VA, an immersive event led by Hakim Isler (featured on Bledsoe Said So episode 196). Designed to push the boundaries of human potential, the Psi Games put psychic abilities to the test with challenges in remote viewing, mind sight, psychokinesis, and more. Attendees also had the chance to learn directly from leading experts in parapsychology through lectures and hands-on workshops aimed at sharpening intuition and unlocking advanced psi skills. Both Ryan and Chris Sr. took part in the event, which culminated in a skywatch that left everyone in awe.Learn more about next year's event here: https://psigamesinternational.com/
