This Perfect Day

If Bigfoot is real, what exactly is it? Is it simply an elusive, distant cousin of us humans, a creature who occupies an evolutionary branch in our family tree, and who chooses to live in the deep wilderness, far away from human population centers? Or is Bigfoot something else altogether: a creature with extraterrestrial origins? In this episode Phil interviews a guest who has developed a new, radical explanatory model of Bigfoot (and other cryptids) in an effort to better map observed behaviors, first-hand encounter reports, and physical evidence.

TPD is temporarily changing format. Listen for details.

Have we really been to the moon?

History books tell us that on July 20, 1969, NASA’s Apollo 11 mission landed mankind on the moon for the first time. But one out of ten Americans say “no way!,” and do not fully believe the official record of mankind’s greatest achievement. Could the Apollo moon missions 11-17 be an elaborate hoax? If yes, why would such a hoax be perpetrated, and who would benefit? Or are conspiracy theorists simply…well…throwing rocks at the moon?

What really happened to Princess Diana?

Many people still share their where-were-you-when-you-heard stories about the passing of Diana, Princess of Wales, on August 31st, 1997. Rumors of a conspiracy emerged almost immediately after reports of her tragic death due to an automobile accident in the Pont de l’Alma tunnel along the River Seine in Paris, France. Did the driver of her black Mercedes simply have an accident while trying to avoid the paparazzi? Or was her death a carefully planned finale by the royal elites that had always controlled her life?

Sometimes called "America’s Stonehenge"  the Georgia Guidestones is a large granite monument located near Elberton, Georgia – about 90 miles east of Atlanta.  Ten guidelines / instructions (commandments?) for humanity are inscribed on the stones in multiple languages. Are they a creepy, in-our-face proclamation of the New World Order, or just the creation of a strange group of people with weird ideas and a bit of money?

On July 17, 1996, TWA Flight 800, a 747 departing from JFK Airport in New York, bound for Paris, exploded in midair just east of Long Island, killing all 230 passengers and crew on board. Shortly afterwards, witness reports started to emerge about a streak of light, possibly a flare, a firework, or perhaps even a missile, was seen streaking through the sky and impacting the aircraft causing a massive fireball. Was it a terrorist attack? A Navy accident? The NTSB and FBI have said no. But that's definitely not the end of this story. Join Brett and Phil as they discuss much more than just the technical details of the tragedy of TWA Flight 800.

The Montauk Project has been described as a "project that involved advance technological research, mind-control, weather control, genetic manipulation, sexual magick ritual, hyperspace research, alien communication, esoteric weaponry, time travel and interdimensional exploration. It was perhaps the largest secret project that ever existed up to that point in time." In part 2 Brett and Phil get into more of the why's and how's of the project itself, and discuss just how likely the stories are true, and to what extent the government or other agencies may have been involved.

Conspiracy Theorists allege that from 1968-1983 military mind control research took place at (beneath) the Camp Hero facility at Montauk Point, New York. That the research at this location opened and exploited “portals” and/or “rips in the space-time continuum” to communicate with extra-terrestrial intelligences. Montauk is, in fact, at the hub of uncountable conspiracy theories including mind control, teleportation, time travel, alien intelligence, government cover ups, black-ops kidnappings, monsters, and so much more. In Part 1, Brett and Phil discuss that background of the stories, as well as some of the people claiming to be either ex-workers and/or victims of experimentation, that have made public claims about the nature of the work conducted at Camp Hero.

According to the conspiracy theory, from July - October 1943, the U.S. Navy destroyer escort, U.S.S. Eldridge (DE-173), with crew, was used in cloaking experiments (in dock and at sea) that went wrong. The strong magnetic field that was used to render the ship optically and/or radar invisible accidentally ‘de-materialized / teleported’ the ship from the Philadelphia Navy Yard to Norfolk, Virginia for a period of time. Some human participants in the experiment were killed when their bodies became fused with other materials, some suffered from life-long physical and mental difficulties, and some disappeared. One witness who was on an observer ship in Philadelphia came forward in the 1955, thus opening the case for public scrutiny. Join Brett and Phil this week as they do just that, scrutinize the Philadelphia Experiment.

Sept. 24, 1941: The "bomb plot" message from Japanese naval intelligence to Japan's consul general in Honolulu requesting a grid of exact locations of ships in Pearl Harbor is deciphered. The information is not shared with the Hawaii's Adm. Kimmel and Gen. Short.

Nov. 27, 1941: Kimmel and Short receive "war warning" from Washington indicating a Japanese attack, possibly on an American target in the Pacific, is likely.

Morning of Dec. 7, 1941: U.S. intelligence decodes a message pointing to Sunday morning as a deadline for some kind of Japanese action. The message is delivered to the Washington high command before 9 a.m. Washington time, more than 4 hours before the attack on Pearl Harbor. But the message is not forwarded to the Pearl Harbor commanders and finally arrives only after the attack has begun.

*******************************
Is this sequence of events proof the US government was complacent, or even complicit, in an attack on the US, or were they simply standard operating procedure for a Navy in the middle of a burgeoning world war, awash in deliberately misleading messages from Japan, and completely surprised by an unprovoked attack? Brett and Phil discuss the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor

*Note: this episode was recorded previously by Brett and Phil. Watch for Part 2 in the near future that brings new research to this topic.

How was Facebook funded? According to the documentation it was funded by investors and venture capitalists. But was there other funding? Secret funding? And if so, what did they buy with that money? In this episode Brett and Phil discuss the origins of Facebook and its ties to the CIA and other secretive government organizations. (Note that this episode was originally recorded several years ago so some of the information here may be out of date or anachronistic.)

The Sphinx is one of the world's oldest remaining wonders.  By all accounts the Sphinx is incredibly old. Over the course of history, even ancient Egyptians occasionally  discovered the Sphinx all over again, unburying a statue that was already more than a thousand years old while Pharaohs still ruled the land. It was a marvel of construction in its day, but when was that day? And is there more to the Sphinx than meets the eye?  To this day questions persist about the Sphinx's origins, purpose, age, whose face is carved into the statue, and even if the statue is a lion at all. Join Brett and Phil this week as they discuss the mysteries of the Sphinx.

The assassination of President John F. Kennedy is perhaps one of the greatest conspiracy theories to ever take hold in the American consciousness and is perhaps the birth of the modern day conspiracist. It represents the loss of America's innocence (how many times has that been lost now?), and proved that even the most protected person in the country could be killed, in broad daylight, not only in public, but as the center of the public's attention. Regardless which side of the conspiracy you fall on, the assassination of JFK was a turning point in American history. Brett and Phil discuss the tip of the conspiracy iceberg in this 1-hour episode of This Perfect Day.

Harmless water vapor or something sinister? In this episode we discuss chem/contrails.

In the first on-topic episode of the This Perfect Day podcast, Brett and "Phil" discuss one of the most well-known, and universally reported, conspiracy theories: UFOs. 

Introductory episode of the This Perfect Day podcast. This is a conspiracy theorist / anti-conspiracy theorist discussion. This episode introduces the hosts, the format, and the expectations of episodes to come.
