Past lives, UFO crashes and ET occupants, and insights on the afterlife were among the fascinating topics explored this past week on Coast to Coast AM. And, here at the C2C website, we told you about the return of Britain's banana phantom, the first virtual Nessie sighting of the year, and a dispute surrounding a legendary alien abductee's pants. Check out our round-up of highlights from the past week ... In Coast You Missed It.
Alleged UFO crashes and the possible occupants found therein were in the spotlight on Wednesday night's program with researcher Ruben Uriarte. He recounted several such intriguing cases, including a 1974 incident in which a Mexican military plane was said to have collided with an unidentified craft and authorities quickly scooped up both vehicles under a cloak of secrecy. Another weird event he recounted during the evening involved a low-flying disc that prompted a police chase in Mexico City. The peculiar pursuit culminated with a security guard encountering what she later described as a reptilian creature.
A pair of legendary lake monsters 'swam' their way into the headlines this past week, beginning with the first virtual Nessie sighting of 2025. Captured by diligent Loch Ness live stream viewer Eoin O’Faodhagain, the strange scene shows two mysterious humps that emerged from the waters of the famed Scottish site. Noting that they dipped below the surface and returned to the same spot on four separate occasions, he argued that they could not have been a log nor, due to their size, a prosaic creature. Then, in Argentina, a man captured footage of a similarly mystifying form that surfaced at a lake that is said to be the home of a legendary monster known as Nahuelito.
The afterlife was a hot topic of conversation this past week on Coast to Coast AM with a trio of guests discussing various aspects of the 'other side.' On Sunday night's program, psychic medium Chip Coffee shared insights on life after death and spirit communication. The following evening, Dr. Gregory Shushan detailed beliefs about the afterlife shared across different cultures and the phenomenon of near-death experiences. Finally, on Thursday's program, spiritual medium Carole Obley offered her observations about the 'other side' and talked about the nature of souls, specifically how they resonate with similar essences in a manner akin to schools of fish traveling as a collective.
Weird food mysteries from across the pond were in the news this past week. First, in a delightfully strange follow-up to an already peculiar story from January, an individual who has left a plate of peeled bananas on the side of a road in a British town on the second day of every month for the last year avoided being caught by those awaiting February's offering when they surreptitiously deposited the fruit a day early. The curious game of cat and mouse will presumably resume at the start of March. Meanwhile, in another English community, someone dumped a sizeable bunch of shrink-wrapped cucumbers on the side of a road in either an act of littering, a prank, or an homage to the aforementioned banana phantom.
Could what are perceived as past lives actually be parallel lives occurring simultaneously? This fascinating scenario was put forward by psychic Loren Cielo on Tuesday night's program. He posited that each lifetime is akin to a page in a book already written and contained within the Akashic records. While one largely has free will within their specific journey, he indicated that society-wide events such as the pandemic are orchestrated by our 'higher selves' who are essentially overseeing how things play out in the earthly realm. During his appearance, Cielo also reflected on conducting clairvoyant readings, which he has done for nearly twenty years.
Perhaps the weirdest story of the week came by way of Scotland, where the country's national museum was slammed by a paranormal researcher after they rebuffed his donation of a pair of pants from a legendary alien abduction. The torn trousers were worn by Bob Taylor during a 1979 incident wherein he was allegedly scooped up by a flying saucer. After being examined by authorities, the pants eventually made their way to paranormal researcher Malcolm Robinson who graciously offered to give the curious artifact to the National Museums of Scotland. To his dismay, however, they passed on taking the trousers citing a general policy about accepting unsolicited donations.
