  • Mount Shasta: Sky People, Hidden Tunnels, and the Mystery Speakers - Deceptive Reality Podcast S4E28
    Jul 10 2026
    Mount Shasta has UFO reports, Bigfoot sightings, underground city legends, stories of giant beings, and one of the weirdest recent discoveries tied to the mountain, 100 to 200 solar-powered speakers found near the tree line playing strange audio. In this episode, we go case-file style through the lore of the sky people, the rumored city of Telos, J.C. Browns alleged tunnel discovery, missing-person stories, and the new speaker update that made the internet wonder if someone was trying to contact something on the mountain. The episode is built from your Mount Shasta transcript. The speaker discovery was first reported as 100 to 200 solar-powered Bluetooth speakers, and a later report said the property owner described it as a personal spiritual project meant to send peaceful messages outward.

  • The Vertical Plane Part 2: 2109, Thomas Harden, and the Missing Book - Deceptive Reality Podcast S4E27
    Jul 3 2026
    Ken and Debbie thought they were talking to a man from the 1500s through a BBC microcomputer, but in Part 2, the case gets much stranger. The mysterious force known as 2109 steps back into the story, claiming it can block, alter, and guide messages, while the man they knew as Lucas begins to look more and more like a real historical figure named Thomas Harden. As investigators arrive, strange tests are attempted, physical activity inside the cottage escalates, and the story ends with one final claim: somewhere near Oxford, there may be a hidden book that could prove the impossible conversation really happened.

  • The Vertical Plane Part 1: The Computer That Answered From 1546? - Deceptive Reality Podcast S4E26
    Jun 26 2026
    Ken, Debbie, and Nicola thought Meadow Cottage was just an old house that needed work. Then six-toed footprints appeared going up a freshly painted wall, objects started stacking themselves into impossible shapes, cold spots moved through rooms like something solid, and a BBC Micro computer began receiving strange files no one remembered creating. The messages claimed to come from a man named Lucas, living centuries earlier in the same place. But once Lucas began testing Ken just as much as Ken was testing him, the case shifted from a haunting to something stranger, a possible conversation across time, with another presence watching from the year 2109.

  • The Scole Experiment: Did They Record Proof of the Afterlife? - Deceptive Reality Podcast S4E25
    Jun 19 2026
    In this episode of Deceptive Reality, Bert and Nick dig into the Scole Experiment, a paranormal case from 1990s England where a small group allegedly produced physical evidence during controlled seance sessions. The claims get weird fast, from intelligent lights moving through the room, to voices heard by witnesses, to objects appearing, sealed film showing strange images, and a connected radio experiment that may have captured clear voices from beyond. The big question is not just whether the Scole case is real. It is whether the old paranormal field may have been testing something modern ghost hunting forgot how to measure.

    Jun 12 2026

Bert and Nick explore the Hexham Heads, Dr. Anne Ross, the wolf-man reports, the hoax claims, and the chilling idea that the heads may have been buried for a reason.

  • The GATE Program: Were Gifted Kids Screened for Psychic Ability? - Deceptive Reality Podcast S4E23
    Jun 5 2026
    What if those strange gifted tests from childhood were not just about grades, puzzles, or being smart? In this episode of Deceptive Reality, Nick and Bert trace the weird overlap between confirmed government interest in altered consciousness, MK Ultra, remote viewing, Stargate, Zener cards, and the much murkier claims around GATE programs and psychic screening. The episode separates what is confirmed, what is reported, and what remains unproven, then asks the uncomfortable question: were some children quietly identified because their brains worked differently?
