Wendy's Coffeehouse Curious

For decades the public conversation has largely asked: “Are UFOs real?” Director Rhett McClure has a confession. He had his own UFO sighting when he was 13. And that made him curious. When he stumbled onto John's story, he wanted to know more.  JOHN FOSTER: IDENTIFIED PHENOMENA is a documentary asking a more challenging question than whether UFOs are real. The question: What happens when a lifetim...

A blast from the past: some of my original Conscious Living shows are being featured in the special limited-time revival of Empower Radio . I have no idea which titles were selected, so this is a true archive surprise. These episodes are presented as-is — original content, recorded live, free of edits, and very much from the moment. Gasp! And yes, that photo is… dated. Gasp x2. Empower Radio began...

In Part 2 of my conversation with author Elly Flippen, we move into the more esoteric side of Ingo Swann’s work — including remote viewing the planets, UFOs and UAPs, non-human entities, and the complicated nature of contact experiences. Ingo Swann is widely known as an artist, author, and remote viewing pioneer, but his explorations extended far beyond laboratory perception studies. His work touc...

In this two-part conversation, we talk with author Elly Flippen about You Know More Than You Think , her five-book experiential series exploring perceptual literacy — how awareness forms, stabilizes, differentiates, navigates, and eventually encounters the larger forces shaping reality. Elly brings a unique personal perspective to this work. She grew up in close proximity to her uncle, artist and...

So - even though she's seen a few UFOs - along with her Dad in one instance (he opted to avoid admiting it was a UFO), her interest has always been focused on the entities, not the hardware. Her assessment? Communicating with ETs requires advanced telepathic skills humans have yet to master. She offers a few quick tips on how to improve your own telepathic abilities. And then how good you are - is...

In this short edited segment, Meg Hansen explores the challenge of communicating with non-human intelligences through telepathy, tones, emotion, and symbolic thought rather than spoken language. She describes the experience as trying to process information that arrives faster than the human mind can translate it into words. Could AI could eventually help bridge that communication gap by recognizin...

We start with Meg's most recent book: Psychic Archaeology in New York: The Timeless Resonance of New York's Stone Chambers -  Acoustic properties capable of inducing altered states of consciousness Astronomical alignments shared with sacred sites worldwide No one knows who built them.

When Reality Has Been Flagged for Review -The Dilemna Dilemma - No Joke.   I'm witing and collaborating with AI. Does AI have a sense of humor? Yes. Irony? Even more so. AND t he dilemna / dilemma is a real thing. A mandela effect. It was a shock to discover that element fed right into the story as I was writing it... I talk about that.

I want to share an article I'm working on in this episode. Let's consider the idea of a phase shift, a change in alignment with reality. If these shifts can happen briefly… what happens when someone doesn’t come back? Some questions don’t begin with answers. They begin with patterns. Experiences that repeat. Moments, shared by my interview guests and in my own life, where reality doesn’t behave th...

Travis Dean didn't just find a piece of land. If you believe — and after hearing him, it's hard not to — the land found him . The snake didn't strike. The Jeep held him in that wash until the call came through. The Golden-Eye People called to him in dreams. And somehow, a data scientist who models disasters for a living ended up becoming exactly what this desert needed: an Earthkeeper. We talk abo...

The signs had been there all along, but the full connection only crystallized through after-death communication.
