Forbidden archaeology, alien-human hybrids, and a possible Sasquatch sighting in Colorado that made global headlines were among the fascinating topics explored this past week on Coast to Coast AM. And, here at the C2C website, we told you about a puzzling mystery creature filmed in Argentina, ancient carvings of faces that were found in Brazil, and a New Zealand city plagued by the music of Celine Dion. Check out our round-up of highlights from the past week ... In Coast You Missed It.
Forbidden archaeology took center stage on Monday night's program as researcher Michael Cremo returned to the program to discuss his work investigating anomalies in the human evolutionary timeline. He noted the recent discovery of a wooden structure in Zambia that is believed to be around 476,000 years old and argued that this would appear to indicate that modern humans have been around far longer than mainstream science suggests. Cremo also mused about the possibility that our planet was inhabited by an intelligent species millions of years ago and that those original Earth denizens may be behind the UFO phenomenon.
A pair of peculiar videos showing possible paranormal activity emerged out of Argentina this past week. First, a mystified witness captured footage of an unidentified creature crawling along a wall in a city and many viewers online suggested that the curious critter could be a folkloric form of werewolf known as a lobizon. Later in the week, an Argentine television program filmed what appeared to be a ghost running along a boardwalk. When notified of what their outdoor camera had caught during the live broadcast, the hosts of the show were astounded and pledged to viewers that they would get to the bottom of the eerie apparition that had made a surprise appearance earlier in the evening.
Earlier this month, Shannon and Stetson Parker were traveling on a train in Colorado when they spotted what appeared to be Bigfoot roaming along the side of a mountain and footage from their sighting subsequently sparked worldwide headlines. The couple joined host Connie Willis to discuss their remarkable experience on Saturday night's program. Expressing the firm belief that they saw a genuine Sasquatch, Shannon argued that its movements did not resemble a person in a costume or a ghillie suit. That sentiment was echoed by Stetson, who noted that the location of the sighting was rather remote and far away from any roads from which a prankster might have originated.
This past week featured news of a rather wondrous development that came about due to a severe drought impacting Brazil as the significant decrease in a river's water level revealed a dazzling array of ancient carvings that depict human faces. The mysterious petroglyphs, which are believed to be between 1,000 and 2,000 years old, had previously been visible back in 2010 when the country was suffering under similar conditions. However, this latest drought has proven to be even more impactful, which has led to even more carvings being discovered. Archaeologists are now racing against time to study and document the faces before they are once again submerged and hidden from view.
Could the alien abduction phenomenon be some kind of program designed to create ET-human hybrids? This unsettling scenario was explored on Wednesday night's program as experiencer Karin Wilkinson shared her belief that she has fallen victim to this sinister agenda. She recalled being pregnant many years ago and then suddenly falling ill during the third trimester. When Wilkinson went to the hospital, she said, the doctor found no sign of fetal tissue. Chillingly, she claims that she was later visited by ETs that took her to an underground facility where she was forced to hold a baby that resembled a hybrid being, though she recognized it as her own.
Easily the most bizarre story of the week came by way of New Zealand, where residents of a city are being plagued by an odd fad wherein people compete to have the most powerful car sound system by outfitting their vehicles with giant speakers and blasting the music of Celine Dion. Known as 'siren battles,' the strange showdowns have been happening at all hours of the night for the last several weeks in the community of Porirua to the point that the mayor is now calling for police action over the ongoing annoyance. For those wondering why Celine Dion is the favored choice among self-described 'siren kings,' the Canadian artist's songs apparently hit the proverbial sweet spot for showing off speakers thanks to their clarity, high treble, and low base.
