Episode Summary
In this episode of Talking to the Dead, I explore the idea that creative writing may not originate in the individual brain, but emerges through a process of reception or channelling. Inspired by a vivid dream in which I discovered a handwritten notebook filled with pages from an already-written novel, the episode examines whether literature arises from a shared or non-local dimension of consciousness.
Drawing on accounts from writers including W. B. Yeats, Samuel Taylor Coleridge, Jack Kerouac, Fyodor Dostoevsky, and Philip K. Dick, I explore experiences of automatic writing, trance states, and altered consciousness, alongside psychological concepts such as flow and the collective unconscious.
Approaching creativity phenomenologically rather than dogmatically, this episode considers writing as listening rather than invention—and literature as a conversation across time, perhaps even a way of talking to the dead.

In this episode of Talking to the Dead, a vivid dream becomes the starting point for a serious investigation into musical genius, inspiration, and the possibility of non-local creativity. Observing David Gilmour, Radiohead, and an impossible collaboration between Peter Gabriel and Storm Thorgerson, the episode explores whether great music is composed — or received.
Drawing on neuroscience, psychology, and the testimony of composers, jazz musicians, and rock artists, this episode examines why some individuals access extraordinary musical ideas, why neurodivergent minds are over-represented among great creators, and whether inspiration may arise from states where authorship dissolves.
Is genius a matter of training, biology, altered consciousness — or permeability to something beyond the individual mind?
An exploration of where music may truly come from.

In this episode of Talking to the Dead, we explore one of the most challenging ideas emerging from military whistleblowers, intelligence officers, and long-time UAP researchers: the possibility that so-called “non-human entities” may not be extraterrestrial at all — but deeply connected to humanity itself.
Drawing on testimony from figures such as David Grusch, Luis Elizondo, John Ramirez, Jacques Vallée, and others, we examine a series of hypotheses gaining serious traction behind the scenes:
• interdimensional humans living parallel to us
• future humans returning through time
• divergent human lineages that evolved separately
• and ultraterrestrial intelligences co-existing with our world
We investigate why insiders increasingly question the extraterrestrial narrative and instead propose that these entities may be human-related — biologically, evolutionarily, or temporally.
This episode then moves into the deeper implications.
What would human-related intelligences mean for ancient religion?
For angels, apparitions, and the “messengers” described across cultures?
For near-death experiences and the continuity of consciousness?
For ghost encounters and communication with the dead?
By reframing the phenomenon through the lens of dimensionality, human evolution, and consciousness studies, this episode offers a unified perspective that bridges UFOs, spirituality, and the afterlife.
In this episode of Talking to the Dead, I dive into one of the most provocative documents circulating today — the so-called Rhea narrative, a whistleblower-style account describing ancient interstellar oversight, hidden human history, and a looming cosmic conflict.
I compare its themes to one of the most mysterious and politically inconvenient ancient texts ever written: The Book of Enoch.
From “Watchers” descending to monitor early humanity, to secret knowledge given and withheld, to a world shaped by beings older and more advanced than us — the parallels are striking, unsettling, and strangely familiar.
Whether Rhea’s claims are allegory, disclosure, or myth-making for the modern age, I ask the deeper question:
Why do these stories keep returning, across cultures, across eras, and now across our timelines?
In this episode, we dive into one of our most thought-provoking topics yet: the mysterious intersection of UAP encounters, near-death experiences, and the possibility that consciousness survives beyond the physical body. Are these phenomena connected? Could advanced non-human intelligences reveal something about the nature of the soul—or even hint that death is not the end? Join me as we explore the science, spirituality, and speculation behind what lies beyond the veil.

Ayahuasca is a psychoactive brew made from the Banisteriopsis caapi vine and plants containing the chemical dimethyltryptamine (DMT), traditionally used by Indigenous peoples in the Amazon. It is known for its potent hallucinogenic effects and is used in spiritual and shamanic rituals, but is also illegal in many places due to the presence of DMT. These and similar drugs have been used for thousands of years to aid spiritual practices and for recreation. Today Psychedelics have hit the mainstream with millions of users around the world.
Does taking DMT or other similar drugs really propel your consciousness into other dimensions? Is it possible that you are really meeting highly evolved and ancient entities such as Spirit Guides, Angels and Demons, or even Jesus and God when taking these drugs? Are the takers of DMT really seeing and talking to the Dead, and to Aliens such as the Greys, or other humans and animals? Can you communicate with the consciousness of trees, or non-human non physical entities? Is taking these drugs safe, or do you risk Psychological damage and trauma? Is the emotional, mental, and physical harm that often results from severely distressing events in your past miraculously healed after a few sessions of DMT or LSD, or is it made worse by DMT and drugs like Cannabis?

The Secret of Secrets: Novel-(Robert Langdon Book 6) by Dan Brown 2025
Anna wrote to me last year after listening to the podcast, and she felt that it expressed feelings and opinions she had also experienced. I spent a short time channelling a message for her while I was sitting in a lovely cemetery in Cologne, and she later wrote that it resonated deeply with her. She agreed to be the first person I have ever met live on the podcast and we spent about an hour together talking about subjects as diverse as Autism, UAPs, Consciousness, and Nature.
Legal disclaimer: Anna is over 18, and gave her full consent to be on the podcast. The interview was conducted via Zoom.

In this episode I meet Julia who still has consciousness in my local Graveyard. She sadly died of accidental drowning in June 2023, at 18 years old however she informs me all about how she feels and how although her body is gone, and her Soul has moved on - there is always a little of a person’s life energy or consciousness left behind. The second topic is Psychedelic drugs. I do a deep dive into the various known drugs, their origin, and effects, and why taking them may help issues of depression and other psychiatric illnesses. Are they really enabling you to enter other dimensions? I discuss the dangers of taking these drugs as well as the potential benefits.
Tonight a special for Halloween.
I discuss the origins of the festival, and meet two entities. Harold a young man in old times who was killed on his horse in battle, and then Queen Elizabeth II. Her consciousness comes through again to update me since her last visit 2 years ago in episode 11, and more purposefully she describes how the Royal family will soon end in the UK, and around the world authority constructs will all soon collapse as humanity learns to be free and evolved. The disclosure that humanity is not the only intelligent species on this earth will cause all people to question traditional leaders and usher in a new world of self-confidence and individuality.
In this episode I read from the last chapter of Volume two of my new books based on this podcast series. It brings you up to date with where we left off last time a few months ago.
I also end by discussing some of the subjects I will be covering in this new season.

I am back in Rendlesham Forrest again for a ive episode as I wander around different sites less known where the various UFO sightings happened, and try to use the CE 5 protocols to contact Inter Dimensional beings or Extraterrestrials that may be in that area still. I find the experience more like prayer however, which is not what I expected, but not at all surprising!
Various fun documents about the UFO trail, and what happened.

Great Interview with Harald Malgren a month or so before he died, about Knights of Malta, Tesla, and his inside government knowledge of crash retrieval, etc.
https://youtu.be/KH-hPqc6ufE?si=1dR6bweRQ8xkaumm
A 27 year old Harald Malmgren literally saved the world from nuclear catastrophe during The Cuban Missile Crisis when Secretary of Defense Robert McNamara and President JFK asked him to “buy time for diplomacy” by facing off against General Curtis “Bombs Away” LeMay. Malmgren, the youngest of the “whiz kids”, went on to become a presidential advisor not just to JFK, but LBJ, Nixon and Ford. He had a personal relationship with Putin and advised every Japanese Prime Minister since Tanaka in the 70’s, Giscard d’Estaing, Pompidou and others. He was assigned to “contain” Kissinger and worked closely with Howard Baker, George Schulz, Volcker and Mondale not to mention Nobel Prize winners Tom Schelling and Sir John Hicks. Unusually, he had ALL the so called Q Clearances. 1. He held UFO (or UAP) material directly. This material came out of the plume of a nuclear test called Bluegill Triple Prime conducted at Johnston Atoll in the Marshall Islands in 1962. It was handed to him by Lawrence Preston Gise, director of the Albuquerque branch of the Atomic Energy Commission. 2. The Deputy Director of Plans for the CIA and the man who built and designed Area51, Richard Bissell, briefed Malmgren on “otherworld technologies”. This includes past crash retrievals like the Magenta crash in Lombardy, Italy in 1933 along with broader awareness of UFO appearances around tip of the spear technology development at sensitive Department of Energy sites across the country. 3. That a member of foreign intelligence sent Harald information on a secret antigravity-related collaboration between Tesla and Thomas Townsend Brown. 4. He told his daughter Pippa off air in his final hours that there had been UFO crash survivors (biologics) and he was shown a video of the “sole surviving extraterrestrial being” from one such crash (Roswell). 5. Malmgren says point blank that he believes JFK knew about UFOs long before becoming president (from his history in Naval Intelligence). He and LBJ raced out to Los Alamos right after Blugill Triple Prime to be briefed in person. He says that JFK’s desire to collaborate with the Soviets on UFOs, space exploration and denuclearization were core parts of the impetus to assassinate him.

In the north of Cologne, more precisely in the Chorweiler district, stands an old, dilapidated house that probably sends chills down the spine of more than a few observers: Haus Fühlingen, also known as Villa Oppenheim. Built as a magnificent retreat, the imposing property is now known nationwide for one thing: spooky ghost stories.
However, long before Eduard Freiherr von Oppenheim, according to the website " köln.de ," purchased a large area in the so-called Fühlinger Heide in 1884 to build a country estate, the place became the scene of horror—almost 600 years earlier, to be exact. Back then, in 1288, two rival rulers set their troops against each other; 1,100 soldiers lost their lives, and quite a few of the fallen were trampled beyond recognition by the knights' panicked horses.

This was the lovely park I was in!

I cannot find any record of an airstrip located here however the whole park and area was apparently built before the 1st war and was a natural barrier of green space and fortification around cologne now called the outer green belt! The street running along the park is called military street, and after the end of the first Great War as part of the treaty of Versailles it was broken up and eventually formed in the 20s into many parks, recreational spaces and mixed use outside locations. I have visions still of the earliest aircraft taking off and landing there, and also a strong feeling that maybe during the war some aircraft were shot down and crashed here! Pilots and planes features in the air spirits section!

The idea of extraterrestrial life and its intersection with religion is a multifaceted and sometimes controversial topic, with various viewpoints and potential impacts. Some religions and belief systems incorporate extraterrestrial beings or concepts of other worlds into their teachings, while others grapple with the implications of extraterrestrial contact on their established doctrines. The potential for religious conversion or the emergence of new belief systems based on extraterrestrial encounters is also a subject of discussion.
UFO Religions: Some religious groups and movements incorporate extraterrestrial beings and UFOs into their belief systems, often presenting them as saviors, agents of transformation, or even as embodiments of higher powers. Religious Texts and Extraterrestrial Life: While some religious texts, like the Quran, leave room for the possibility of extraterrestrial life, others might be more restrictive in their views. Potential Impact on Existing Religions: The discovery of extraterrestrial life could challenge or reinforce existing religious beliefs, potentially leading to reinterpretations of doctrines or even the emergence of new religious movements. Ethical and Philosophical Implications: Contact with extraterrestrial intelligence could raise ethical questions about our place in the universe, the nature of consciousness, and the potential for interspecies communication and understanding. Religious Tolerance and Conflict: Some speculate that the discovery of extraterrestrial life could foster greater religious tolerance, while others fear that it might exacerbate existing religious tensions or even lead to new forms of religious conflict. Scientific and Theological Dialogue: The convergence of religion and extraterrestrial life also presents an opportunity for interdisciplinary dialogue and collaboration between scientists and theologians, allowing for a more comprehensive understanding of the universe and our place within it.

UFO Whistleblower Matthew Brown has words of advice - and caution - for the public, for Congress, and for other potential whistleblowers. In the conclusion of his massive interview with WEAPONIZED, Brown reveals how public perceptions about UAP issues are carefully managed, how "fear, greed, and willful ignorance" are employed as weapons by those who keep the secrets, and why now is the time for other insiders to step forward and tell what they know.

After a few months I have finally gotten around to sharing some lovely emails I have received, and I hope I can answer some of the questions posed to me.
In the process I visited the Rodenkirchen Cemetery, and the Südfriedhof.
I hope I have been able to communicate with the energy there and maybe gained some communication for the listeners Beth, Maria, Sunnie, and Anna.
Thanks for writing to me, and please I am happy to help anyone as best as I can, and I appreciate the kind words and encouragement.
More about the Südfriedhof in Cologne.
The Picture is the War Memorial in the cemetery for British and Commonwealth service personnel killed in the first world war mainly. There are also soldiers and seamen from the second war as well as occupied forces personnel who died in the 1950s;, prisoners of war who died in captivity as well as airmen shot down during the bombing raids of the second war. Additional zones contain hundreds of unidentified persons in mass graves who were victims of the killing in the second war.

I discuss the possibility that some of the Species on our planet have been here millions of years longer than us, and evolved from varieties of Saurian we now call Dinosaurs. Additionally, we have been visited and still are visited by races of humanoid species, and other Reptilian, and others for millions of years, and one particular species have been the original Engineers of our species. Much of this information comes from years of research by various Ufologists and Conspiracy types, however I have chosen to discuss the Lacerta Files.
„It’s an extraordinary story by a subterrestrial reptilian woman named Lacerta, who, played a surprise visit to a Norwegian man for research, who self-coded himself E.F. and recorded a nice active conversation. Then later, the meeting was reconstructed by one Ole K, who prepared a list of questions and answers.”
As described on the internet further;
„ Not only answering all the questions, Lacerta extended it further into the “real” “true” cosmic science and technology, and evolutional history and geopolitics of her own species since a 65million-years-ago global calamity, created by two out-of this world cosmic entities. One was a giant humanoid from near Orion, while the other inter-dimensional advanced Reptilian from a different cosmic Bubble walking through dimensions. All what she talked of is far beyond and above what normal ordinal humans are able to believe, but still resonates as TRUE, judging from her sincere “details” and narratives.“
