VOYAGE 031 | Disclosure Past, Present and Future

We are celebrating Disclosure Week on SpectreVision Radio to get ready for Disclosure Day, the new movie from Steven Spielberg. I go through what I think some of the most interesting bits of disclosure that we've already had, are having and might have in the future. I dig into The Disclosure Project's 2025 Briefing Book, the Skinwalkers at the Pentagon book and the government's new disclosure website with downloadable files. You can find those here: https://www.war.gov/UFO/ [https://www.war.gov/UFO/] Here is a link to the video we sampled with the full interview with Capt. Bill Uhouse from Dr. Greer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VxA-Y4enohQ [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VxA-Y4enohQ] You can find more on my stand-up schedule, short films and more at: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://ryansingercomedy.com/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ [https://ryansingercomedy.com/] ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Commercial Free episodes here!⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ [https://www.patreon.com/c/ryansinger] SpectreVision Radio is a bespoke podcast network at the intersection between the arts and the uncanny, featuring a tapestry of shows exploring creativity, the esoteric, and the unknown.

VOYAGE 030 | Source of the Ceasar Creek Squatch with Nick and AJ

Nick and AJ join me to discuss the recent photo that lit up the internet and the Bigfoot community. On a regular trip to Ceasar Creek, Nick and AJ both had a strange experience and left the park. Nick went back the next day and experienced something all too familiar to Bigfoot experiencers. They join the show to walk me through the last week and amazing experience. You're going to enjoy their fresh and wonderful perspectives.

VOYAGE 029 | Ceasar Creek Squatch & The 8 Forces of Nature

As we drift into the astral waves, we take a look at the Ceasar's Creek Sasquatch photo and ponder the possibilities of my old hometown area becoming a new hotspot for cryptid activity. Here's a link to the post on Facebook for the photo. It should be noted that they are NOT claiming that this is definitive proof of a Sasquatch. https://www.facebook.com/photo?fbid=3600736286743713&set=gm.27395602736732029&idorvanity=326277324091270 [https://www.facebook.com/photo?fbid=3600736286743713&set=gm.27395602736732029&idorvanity=326277324091270] We dig into a quick overview of the evidential timeline of the investigation at Portal Creek and a quick refresher from a previous 2025 episode in which we talked about the tragic death of scientist Amy Eskridge and her Zoom call where she began discussing the 8 Forces of Nature.

episode VOYAGE 028 | Interpretation of Worlds and The Transmutation Oracle Deck with Nikoo Bafti cover

VOYAGE 028 | Interpretation of Worlds and The Transmutation Oracle Deck with Nikoo Bafti

Artist, Mystic and all-around interpreter of worlds, Nikoo Bafti joins me to discuss the launch of The Transmutation Oracle Deck that she hand-crafted for the Philosophical Research Society. They have not made a tarot deck in over 100 years until they reached out to her. Wowsers. We get into the journey and her radical shift as an artist and what all people experience in form or another, as we navigate and try to interpret the world and magic around us. How does that unfold and what form does it take for you? We have a wonderful discussion about all things mystical and then get a sneak peek at The Transmutation Oracle she created in collaboration with writer Laura Hayes. More on the deck: The Transmutation Oracle Deck is here to serve as a guide, a navigational tool that helps you to engage with the world under the assumption that reality is holographic and far more malleable than we have been taught. Humans have far more agency than most of us believe, and this deck provides fun ways to interact with and influence reality, whilst also encouraging a deeper understanding of the interconnectedness of all things. The universe speaks in symbols and you can learn to read and respond to it. Sunday May 3rd see Nikoo's presentation at PRS by clicking here!

[https://www.nikoobafti.com/oracle-deck] Nikoo's website here! [https://www.nikoobafti.com/] Nikoo's Instagram here! [https://www.instagram.com/nikoobafti/] Nikoo Bafti is a British-Iranian Visual Artist and Illustrator. After graduating with a BA (Hons) in Illustration & FdA in Visual Communication from the Arts University of Bournemouth, Nikoo began her career as an Animation Development Intern at Disney Channels in London and has since established her own freelance practice as an Illustrator and Visual Artist exhibiting internationally. Her clients include The Philosophical Research Society, Psychic Garden, Disney Channel & Truly Hard Seltzer. Nikoo's work takes a look behind a thinning veil to a realm of the mystical and anomalous through her intensely saturated and arresting colour palettes. Her use of fine detail and delicate, emblematic markings are reminiscent of the traditional Persian Miniature painting style of her heritage.
