30 Jan 2023 | Supernatural Smells | 01:15:01 | |
Our sense of smell could be the most powerful and accurate sense we have, yet we tend to overlook it when it comes to paranormal encounters. Could the stench of the supernatural give us a sniff at what connects UFO, spirit and Big Foot encounters. | |||

21 Apr 2020 | Vardøger and the Banshees (Premonition and Coincidence) | 00:51:48 | |
We look into paranormal premonitions which have their roots in folklore. The Scandinavian phenomena that predicts a loved ones return, and in Irish folklore the Banshee that warns of someones imminent demise. We also explore strange spooky coincidences, such as the one Peter experienced while driving. Are these cliches in 'the matrix' that prove we live in a virtual simulation? | |||
15 Jan 2024 | Monsters Ink | 00:56:19 | |
Walter J. Kilner used a chemical dye called Dicyanin to inform a study into what he believed was the human aura - some would say that this allowed him to see further into a hidden dimension and resulted in the banning of the substance. We discuss reasons that this can be disproved, but discover that there is significant evidence that experiments with night vision goggles during the Vietnam war - perhaps using the same substance - enabled encounters with monstrous entities. Does this material allow humans a way to see the paranormal, or is it all in our minds? If you like what we do please support us at https://www.patreon.com/TQMpod | |||

12 Jun 2023 | Charlie Red Star | 00:51:54 | |
With the amount of UFO coverage in the news recently, we look at a a 'flap' from the 1970's which is eerily similar to an April 2023 encounter in Las Vegas. Regular sightings, missing animals and EBA witnesses all make up this curious and well documented case, plus we update on our Sherlock manifestation. | |||
05 Jun 2023 | Unidentified Aquatic Objects | 01:06:06 | |
Have we been looking in the wrong direction for the source of UFO activity? Rather than looking to skies, should we focus our attention on our oceans? We take a deep dive into a 1970s book that suggests their is an advanced civilisation hiding below the waves. | |||

07 Oct 2024 | The 'Fermi Paradox' Paradox | 00:50:27 | |
In 1950 Nobel Prize winner Enrico Fermi asked the question "where are all the aliens?". It sparked huge debate as to why we have not encountered advanced extra terrestrial life, and theories that we are alone in the universe. We look into those arguments, and discover the 'Fermi Paradox' is not a paradox and has very little to do with Enrico Fermi.

28 Oct 2024 | The Possessed Surgeon | 00:55:39 | |
There are lots of stories about psychic surgeons - often they are proven fakes who use chicken entrails to simulate bloody surgery, promising to cure diseases that mainstream doctors have been unable to treat effectively. But there is one case that stands out, and may well be real. Could an uneducated manual worker in South America really be possessed by the spirit of a medical genius?

09 Sep 2024 | What Are The Plants Thinking? | 01:01:28 | |
From the hippy times of the 1960's, a new thinking about plant consciousness emerged - perhaps the humble onion could actually think for itself? It sounds bizarre, but even the CIA was interested in the spying abilities of the humble houseplant. This week we look at how this thinking gave us cybernetics, several horror movies and a modern scientist determined to prove that plants really can think for themselves. We also revisit the Findhorn garden, the god Pan, and the potato king. We hope you enjoy the show, and we'd love you to help us make more by joining us at www.patreon.com/TQMpod | |||

13 Jan 2025 | Real Time Alien Communication Is Here | 00:56:35 | |
The huge distances involved in communicating with possible alien civilisations means that it would take centuries to have a conversation governed by the speed of light. But a new idea known as Quantum Tunnelling means that we may be able to talk to our next door neighbours, in space, in real time. The method for this communication could also mean that aliens have been using novel methods to communicate with humans telepathically - something we know is a trait of many close encounters.
