On Saturday, September 27, 2025, friends of ours in the ufology/Disclosure community gathered at the home of Dr. Brannon Wheeler and his warm-hearted wife and fellow professor, Deb. Brannon is a member of the Visible College, and a professor at the US Naval Academy who teaches history of religion, and more recently, a few UFO courses! He is a highly intelligent polyglot whose primary focus has been on the Middle East, authoring 11 books so far, and whose language skills extend to some of the world’s most ancient. Anthony was introduced to Brannon by Juan Feria and “Steve,” who were featured in Part 1 of our “Old Gods” panel discussion, last year because of his interest in NHI contact experiences and how those relate to historical instances of “contact” across many of the world’s religious traditions. In fact, he sat down with Anthony for an in-depth discussion over Zoom eagerly listening to his first major experience on his contact protocol, proving his sincere passion for the topic, and quickly easing any apprehension Anthony had over meeting someone from the Naval Academy speaking to experiencers. 

Brannon presented a plenary talk at Stuart Hameroff’s renowned The Science of Consciousness (TSC) conference in Barcelona this past July 2025 alongside Ross Coulthart – the first time a talk about UAP was presented in the conference’s 34-year history – where Sinéad had the pleasure of also meeting Brannon & Deb!  

Although Sinéad could not attend the Sept. 27 gathering, Anthony and several friends were able to attend, including experiencers, scientists, and scholars – even a few friends who were in the US Space Economy Inter-Agency Working Group launched by Dr. Anna Brady-Estevez, formerly of the National Science Foundation!  

Anthony sat down for one-on-one informal chats with a few attendees about their personal and professional thoughts and perspectives on current pressing topics in the UAP community. The identities of the members of the former Working Group have been kept hidden, and their voices masked, for their

Mitch 

Mitch is a lifelong experiencer whose journey into the unknown began at the age of two. From early encounters with poltergeist activity to witnessing a non-human entity walking among us, he has spent a lifetime navigating the strange and unexplained. As a teenager, his curiosity led him into the occult, bringing both insight and anomalous health incidents that deepened their understanding of unseen forces.

Today, Mitch's experiences have evolved into profound interactions with higher-density beings, past-life connections, and a deeper exploration of consciousness, reality shifts, and the metaphysical mechanics of our universe. With a blend of personal encounters, esoteric study, and a grounded perspective, Mitch brings a unique lens to the mysteries that shape our existence.

*******

Episode Summary

🧘🏻‍♂️ In Part 2 of this episode, we discuss how Mitch's often scary paranormal experiences in childhood transformed into much more positive encounters as he got older and worked on himself while pursuing a path of self-transformation and spiritual growth.

Mitch covers his various altered state experiences -- from mystical entity encounters on psychedelics to lucid dreaming, astral travel, and meditative visions.

He also explains how this coincides with his training on the Monroe Institute's Gateway Process! Mitch even describes a few powerful encounters he had with female beings who resemble goddesses from the Ancient Egyptian tradition!

Brett Manning 

Brett is an artist and illustrator who works in many mediums, particularly ink drawings. She finds inspiration in many things, such as plants and animals, patterns, textures, folklore, dreams, synchronicity, Deja vu, the supernatural, spontaneity, truth, isolation, community, and the exploration of the self… and her process for creating tends to feel more meditative and alchemical than anything. She also attempts to recreate the images seen within dreams, and to capture the beings and creatures who seem to want representation in our world.

Check out her amazing work on ⁠Instagram⁠ & ⁠Patreon⁠!

Episode Summary 

In this episode, we continue our interview with Brett and dive into the connections between authentic being, synchronicities, altered states, sound/music, consciousness, nonduality, nature & the environment, psi, fairies, and non-human intelligence/UFOs! Yes, Brett has also had a UFO sighting! What does this all mean for us and our place in the cosmos? We also take a look at some of Brett's channeled fairy artwork and the profound meaning behind each piece and message -- taken from her book One Foot in the Green, which is currently sold out (check out her ⁠Patreon⁠ for updates!)

Brett Manning 

Brett is an artist and illustrator living in rural north central Indiana. She works in many mediums including photography, short films, watercolor, plush toy design, and candle making, but her absolute favorite, and possibly what she’s best known for, would be her ink drawings. She finds inspiration for her art in many things, such as plants and animals, patterns, textures, folklore, dreams, synchronicity, Deja vu, the supernatural, spontaneity, truth, isolation, community, and the exploration of the self… and her process for creating tends to feel more meditative and alchemical than anything, with all the repetitive inking and line work and sigil-like patterns. She also attempts to recreate the images seen within dreams, and to capture the beings and creatures who seem to want representation in our world.

******* 

Episode Summary 

In this episode, we introduce you to Brett Manning -- an amazing artist that entered our orbit through a synchronistic encounter with Anthony at the Frogman Festival in Loveland, Ohio, involving an entity she helped bring into our world through one of her many amazing illustrations. Brett discusses her artistic process, which sounds truly like an alchemical act of co-creation, how entities and beings from the realm of the Fae work with her to come into our reality, her encounters and shared experiences with an entity likened by some to the Celtic nature god Cernunnos, and her permeable self experiences with what she calls "The Great All" -- akin to a non-dualistic Source consciousness that transcends and obliterates the reigning physicalist paradigm and Western worldview!
