I love this guy. He offers some very creative bullshit.
Usually these nutbags just deal in generalities, but he has some specific events and dates:
- Before the end of this year, we will discover giraffes as tall as skyscrapers.
- On October 25 a musician will return who we all think is dead.
- November 9: The Sun disappears for a week straight, causing the world to go into its first Purge,
- November 12: An alien artifact is found buried beneath the ice in Antarctica. It contains a mysterious disease, it spreads quickly through the world, it has no cure.
From listening to Coast to Coast over the years, there are a couple interesting/weird people who claimed to be time travelers who were on the show.
Technically there were three, but Al Bielek is more about the Philadelphia Experiment than anything else.
1.John Titor. I think he claimed to be from 2036. I don’t remember if was actually ever on the show, but the lawyer for those who said were his family was on the show.
2.Andrew Basiago. A rational sounding lawyer from Vancouver, Washington who made all sorts of bizarre claims about traveling back in time, including seeing Lincoln give the Gettysburg Address. He claimed to be part of some government program that involved astral travel as well as time travel and that he and President Obama when he was known as Barry Soetero were on the moon together. The rational sounding crazies are the most dangerous.
I would ague that time is not real anyway. It’s just an invention by humans to mark the passage of events. It’s not something that one can travel back and forth in. Any time a physicist starts yammering on about time this or time that, I just roll my eyes and move on.
OK, the first one is a typo: we will discover giraffes as tall as SKI-scrapers. And the last one is backwards. The artifact in Antarctica will contain a cure for which there is no disease.
Aren’t most things cures for non-existent diseases?
I hope the musician we all think is dead is, like, Beethoven or Mozart or something. Someone who in addition to being a musical legend would also be 300 years old. Now _THAT_ would be way more shocking than Amy Winehouse or Michael Jackson
What if it’s someone nobody ever heard of?
