We discuss his second book, which he reacquired the rights to and re-published as he intended the book to read. We also discuss his other three published books and the horror genre. We discuss plenty of horror and related properties. Among the many tributaries that get fed by the Garden. 

After a deadly virus infects the global population, it throws all
of the world’s inhabitants into two classes: the inflicted and the
immune. Wyatt Tuck, a member of the Immune, finds himself
inside a nightmarish onslaught of deadly feuds and riots.
Losing his home and family brings him into the paths of other
immune—his niece Layla, Easton, and coworker Mitch
Burkly—and the opposing inflicted, such as Helen Olsen.
When Helen and Tamera meet the Tucks and Mitch at Camp
Belt, they will make a shocking discovery. At Camp Belt, an
internment camp for the immune, Helen is promoted to
Commander. She makes a shocking discovery about the two
warring social classes and must rise to action. Will she choose

signed up for old curses, creepy whispers in the shadows, or man-eating
mosquitoes. He just wants to make sure his girlfriend makes it out of the
jungle—alive.
The deeper they dig into the past, the more they must confront a deadly
truth: Some places should never be disturbed!

• the preserved lithographic plate
• cloud-pattern alignment
• scientific confirmation across multiple cameras
• mission-film timing irregularities
• intelligence-photo printing procedures
• how evidence remained hidden “under our nose”

Set in the near future after the world we know collapsed and
was rebuilt through new AI-powered technology, Gods of a
New World is a a mind-bending cyberpunk thriller of rebellion
and redemption.
"I think we’re all wondering what the explosion of artificial
intelligence means for the future of humanity, and that’s
exactly what Gods of a New World explores,” says Melsom.
“I’ve long been fascinated by the intersections among
technology, society, and spirituality, so I feel like my interests
were made for this moment.”
“Gods of a New World is a fascinating exploration of an all-
too-plausible future, and also a fast-paced adventure with an intriguing dose of metaphysical
speculation,.

The trillionaires were powerful enough to reshape the world, but it wasn’t enough. Now they
want more . . .
In a world where trillionaires assisted by powerful AIs call themselves gods, a world where
miracles are engineered and secret technology is wired into the very air, James Kessler and
Maree Shell stumble upon a conspiracy that defies possibility: the new gods’ plan to encode
their consciousness into the world and seize control of reality itself, to literally become the gods
they have so far only pretended to be.
From the world’s gleaming new AI-crafted cities to the crumbling ruins of the old ones, the two
unlikely allies, one a childhood survivor of the Bad Times and the other a privileged daughter of
2
wealth, must run a gauntlet of hostile AIs, vengeful modern-day gods, and mysterious ancient
deities, desperately trying to disrupt the plans of the most powerful people who have ever
lived. Nothing less than the fate of free will itself hangs in the balance.
More about the author
Ryan Melsom has never stopped dreaming about new ways he could get ideas out of his head
and into the world. He holds a PhD in literature from Queen’s University and has long been
fascinated with the interplay among culture, technology, spirituality, spaces, and human
nature. Through the years he has explored these topics through numerous creative media,
including two previous works of fiction, academic writing, experimental web spaces, music
projects, and a black belt in karate. He grew up in Kamloops, British Columbia, and now lives in
Ottawa with his wife and two boys

“I’ve long been fascinated by the intersections among
technology, society, and spirituality, so I feel like my interests
were made for this moment.”
“Gods of a New World is a fascinating exploration of an all-
too-plausible future, and also a fast-paced adventure with an intriguing dose of metaphysical
speculation,.

The trillionaires were powerful enough to reshape the world, but it wasn’t enough. Now they
want more . . .
In a world where trillionaires assisted by powerful AIs call themselves gods, a world where
miracles are engineered and secret technology is wired into the very air, James Kessler and
Maree Shell stumble upon a conspiracy that defies possibility: the new gods’ plan to encode
their consciousness into the world and seize control of reality itself, to literally become the gods
they have so far only pretended to be.
From the world’s gleaming new AI-crafted cities to the crumbling ruins of the old ones, the two
unlikely allies, one a childhood survivor of the Bad Times and the other a privileged daughter of
2
wealth, must run a gauntlet of hostile AIs, vengeful modern-day gods, and mysterious ancient
deities, desperately trying to disrupt the plans of the most powerful people who have ever
lived. Nothing less than the fate of free will itself hangs in the balance.

Haas and his team has taken an interdisciplinary approach into the study. This includes geologists, veterinarians and former government physicists. 

The anamolies studied and addressed include the famous face of Mars, the Martian pyraminds, the keyhole structure, and an anatomically matched (to 27 points) parrot structure. The face is half feline, half simeon. The parrot matches a maccaw. Both related to Mezoamerican mythologies tied to creation myths and a parrot that stole the sun, only to be rescued by the hero twin hunters.

While most GoT shows are apolitical, that's not entirely the case. My politics and those of guests, come through at times. I consider myself a Centrist. That doesn't mean I'm in the Center of every issue. I might be extremely Conservative about many and pretty Progressive or Liberal about others. But for many issues, I recognize they are complex and no one ideology has answers. I believe most people fit in this spectrum. And within this spectrum, there is room for compromise to not have the perfect be the obstacle of the good, or just the better.

I've been very up front about certain issues. It's no secret how pro-Ukraine I am in supporting it's struggle against Russia. This essay addresses one of the lies that has subsided but will likely rear it's head again: the myth that we would spend these billions at home on mental health and homelessness. The figure I recall being bandied about was 50 billion dollars. So, that is what I fixated on.

What did elements of both Left and Right say? What are my thoughts on their motives?

More importantly, what would it take to cure homelessness in the United States? Assuming this is some permanent solution, would 50 billion dollars come close? We use math. Then we use common sense on some inconvenient realities like Not In My Backyard and the costs of infrastructure, treatment and ongoing expenses beyond just building a glorified internment camp in some imaginary unused/unowned hectary of land.

James Bow (Icarus Down), comes out November 12 from
Shadowpaw Press—alongside Tales from the Silence, and
exciting collection of short fiction by a diverse group of
notable authors set in the same future, releasing from
Shadowpaw Press imprint Endless Sky Books.
In Bows’s detailed future setting, Earth’s civilization,
overwhelmed by environmental catastrophe and war, all
but collapses. To the far-flung residents of colonies on
Mars, Venus, Mercury and in the Asteroid Belt, it’s the
falling of the Silence, and in its wake, they must struggle
to survive.
The Sun Runners is set on Mercury, where cities on rails
constantly move around the planet ahead of the deadly
sunrise. Tales from the Silence tells stories from all over
the solar system, including on Earth itself, that trace the
fallout from Earth’s collapse.
“I’m delighted to have The Sun Runners out in the wild
after years of work,” James Bow says. “Shadowpaw Press
has really given their best to this book, and I hope it
makes a good connection with readers. Tales from the
Silence was extremely fun to put together, thanks to the
energy of the contributing authors. I’m grateful they
accepted my invitation to play in my sandbox, and I am
especially grateful for their contributions to my universe.
Thanks to Shadowpaw’s Endless Sky Imprint for making
this companion anthology a reality.”
“I’m thrilled to be publishing both of these great science
fiction titles,” says Edward Willett, publisher of
Shadowpaw Press. “James’s detailed future world was a
joy to immerse myself in through both The Sun Runners
and Tales from the Silence, and I can’t wait to share that
joy with readers.”

James Bow writes science fiction and fantasy for both kids and adults. He’s been a fan of
science fiction since his family introduced him to Doctor Who on TV Ontario in 1978, and his
mother read him classic sci-fi and fantasy from such authors as Clifford Simak and J.R.R. Tolkien.
James won the 2017 Prix Aurora Award for best YA Novel in Canada for Icarus Down.

Akira's story is one of resilience and determination. He shared how he fell in love with wrestling at a young age and how life experiences, including challenges and setbacks, shaped his path. After promising his mother he would complete his education, he took the plunge into wrestling training, a decision that would lead him to the ring.

Throughout the episode, Akira opened up about the rigorous training process he underwent, including the unique environment of training in an MMA gym. This setting not only honed his wrestling skills but also instilled a deep respect for the craft. His journey has not been without its struggles; he candidly discussed the injuries he faced and how they affected his career trajectory.

As a new father, Akira reflected on how fatherhood has changed his perspective on life and wrestling. He emphasized the importance of balancing personal life with professional aspirations and how his experiences have made him more empathetic towards others in similar situations.

Listeners will also find valuable insights into the wrestling industry, including the significance of maintaining authenticity and the importance of quality over quantity in matches.

Above all, George is a Greek mythology buff and a classic superhero comics fan, and he's out to remind us how much our pantheon of superheroes (Superman, Batman, the X-Men, etc) owes to mankind's original superheroes: the Greek pantheon. Now he has brought his attention to OLYMPIANS, an ongoing series retelling the classic Greek myths in comics form.​In his New York Times bestselling Olympians series, O'Connor draws from primary documents to reconstruct and retell classic Greek myths. But these stories aren't sedate, scholarly works. They're action-packed, fast-paced, high-drama adventures, with monsters, romance, and not a few huge explosions. O'Connor's vibrant, kinetic art brings ancient tales to undeniable life, in a perfect fusion of super-hero aesthetics and ancient Greek mythology. George's first graphic novel, Journey Into Mohawk Country, used as its sole text the actual historical journal of the seventeenth-century Dutch trader Harmen Meyndertsz van den Bogaert, and told the true story of how New York almost wasn't. He followed that up with Ball Peen Hammer, the first graphic novel written by playwright Adam Rapp, a dark, dystopian view of a society's collapse.
 In addition to his graphic novel career, O'Connor has published several children's picture books, including the New York Times best-selling Kapow!, Sally and the Some-Thing, If I Had a Raptor and If I Had a Triceratops. George lives in Brooklyn, NY with five terrible cats and one Olympian goddess.]]>https://api.spreaker.com/episode/62429359Sat, 09 Nov 2024 13:56:40 +0000Jeff LippmanThe Garden visits Mt.

Tom Laroufa, a wrestler with 20 years of experience, brings a unique perspective to the table. Beyond his wrestling persona, Tom delves into profound spiritual practices, including past life regressions and astral projections. His vivid experiences and deep understanding of these mystical realms provide listeners with a fascinating glimpse into the unknown.

The episode kicks off with a light-hearted discussion about Tom's French accent and his journey in the wrestling world. However, the conversation quickly takes a deeper turn as Tom and PJ share their personal experiences with past life regressions. Tom recounts a vivid past life memory as a US soldier in Vietnam, describing the intense emotions and sensations he felt during a hypnotherapy session. PJ also shares his own past life regression, where he saw himself as a war general in Atlantis, flying above the water with advanced technology.

As the discussion unfolds, the trio explores the mysteries of the moon and its impact on chakras. Tom and PJ offer intriguing insights into how the moon's artificial nature and its role in the matrix influence our spiritual and physical well-being. They also touch upon the importance of aligning chakras and the profound effects of energy portals on our lives.

One of the most captivating segments of the episode is Tom's account of witnessing a shapeshifting event during a full moon night. His description of the experience, combined with PJ's insights into the nature of spiritual entities, leaves listeners pondering the boundaries of reality and fiction.

The episode also delves into the connection between mental health and the energies we ingest through food. Tom and PJ discuss how the fear and pain experienced by animals in the food industry can impact our mental well-being. They emphasize the importance of being mindful of what we consume and the energies we absorb.

In a thought-provoking exploration of life between lives, Tom shares his experience of a "Life Between Life" session, where he connected with the divine presence and gained a deeper understanding of his soul's journey. This segment offers listeners a glimpse into the profound spiritual insights that can be gained through hypnotherapy and soul exploration.

As the episode draws to a close, Tom and PJ reflect on the power of intentions and rituals, highlighting how our thoughts and actions shape our reality. They emphasize the importance of staying connected to the source and being true to oneself.

This episode of "Garden of Doom, Book of Black" is a must-listen for anyone interested in exploring the mysteries of the universe, past life regressions, and the profound connections that transcend lifetimes.

George "The Iceman" is no stranger to the supernatural. His journey into the occult began over a decade ago when he experienced strange occurrences in a haunted house in Los Angeles. This encounter sparked his curiosity and led him to study the paranormal and the darker aspects of the occult, including rituals, magic, and possession. His extensive research and firsthand experiences make him a fascinating guest with a wealth of knowledge to share.

One of the key topics discussed in this episode is the concept of "loosh" energy. According to George, loosh is the spiritual currency that entities use to manifest their desires. This energy is harvested from the collective consciousness and emotions of people, often without their knowledge. George explains how this energy is used in various aspects of our lives, from music and movies to politics and even food.

The episode also delves into the power of sigils and solomonic magic. Sigil magic involves creating symbols to manifest specific desires, while solomonic magic is based on the teachings of King Solomon, who was said to have controlled demonic forces. George shares his insights into these practices and warns of the dangers associated with them.

For those looking to protect themselves from negative energies and the influence of the occult, George offers valuable advice. He emphasizes the importance of spiritual protection, raising your vibration, and being mindful of what you consume—both in terms of food and media. By staying positive, surrounding yourself with good energy, and being aware of the hidden symbols and messages around you, you can safeguard your energy and live a more fulfilling life.

The episode is not all about the dark side, though. George also highlights the presence of positive entities and archangels, such as Archangel Michael, who are there to guide and protect us. He encourages listeners to seek out these positive forces and to cultivate a sense of spirituality and connection with the divine.

Overall, this episode of Garden of Doom presents the Book of Black is a compelling exploration of the occult and its impact on our lives. Whether you're a skeptic or a believer, George "The Iceman's" insights will give you plenty to ponder. So, tune in, open your mind, and discover the hidden knowledge that lies just beneath the surface of our everyday reality.

While many contributed to the nation’s developing success, this work focuses on the foresight of
two exceptional individuals: Jefferson and Wythe, sometimes called the “Forgotten Founding
Father.” This is a largely untold story, with important implications for today.

Suzanne Munson has dedicated significant time and energy towards making sure we remeber George Wythe and the lessons he taught. We discuss ethics in government, now and then. As well as addressing some concerns we both share.]]>3623falsefullhttps://www.spreaker.com/episode/garden-of-doom-e-176-mexican-giants-and-monsters--55902682https://api.spreaker.com/episode/55902682Sat, 08 Jul 2023 14:46:45 +0000Jeff LippmanMexico Unexplained explores the magic, the mysteries and the miracles of Mexico.

We're joined by recovering lawyer and now author, Philip Brown. He's written two of a likely trilogy which combines aspects of science fiction and historical fiction, to tell a story that is part homage to his grandfather and part commentary of the human condition. We discuss the books, his inspirations, a bit on politics (I know, I typically avoid this), and the publishing business.

Philip Raymond Brown lives in Colorado with his fabulous wife, four
beautiful children, and two good dogs. He has a B.A. in History and Political
Science from Le Moyne College and a J.D. from Washington & Lee
University School of Law.
Writing fiction is Philip's lifelong dream, and is his second career. In 2017, he
walked away from a highly successful career as a trial attorney to pursue this
dream. While writing IT GIVES YOU STRENGTH, he devoted his time to his family,
coaching little league and youth basketball. This year, while his heroic wife,
the fabulous Dr. Sarah Brown, was on the front lines of the battle against
COVID 19, Philip was homeschooling their four children.
As a trial attorney, he received numerous accolades, including being named
to Best Lawyers in America, attaining the highest ethical/ability peer review
rating ("AV") in Martindale-Hubbell, and being listed in Super Lawyers.
The sequel to STRENGTH, HARVESTING EARTHLINGS For Fun AND
PROFIT was released in the Summer of 2022.
For a detailed description of both books including reviews, Chapter one, and
a link to the audiobooks of both novels, please visit Philip's website at http://
