In the first half, spokesperson on the health dangers of genetically modified foods, Jeffrey Smith, talked about the non-GMO uprising occurring in the US and around the world. Just this past May 24th, the "March Against Monsanto" took place in 47 states, and around the world, with people protesting Monsanto's role in creating and disseminating genetically modified seeds and products. Further, Vermont just passed the first real GMO labeling bill in the US, which will take effect starting in 2016, though the biotech industry has threatened to sue the state, Smith reported. One Hawaii county just banned GMOs and two others have issues on the ballot which will stop GMO production on the island till the products are proven safe, he continued.
Smith detailed how people near GMO fields have horrific stories of cancer, birth defects, and even schools having to send the children to the emergency room, and a new report revealed that Monsanto's popular herbicide, Roundup, has been found in pregnant women's breast milk. But the tide is turning, he declared, with thousands of doctors prescribing non-GMO diets, and mainstream companies announcing that certain of their products are GMO-free, such as original Cheerios, original Grape-Nuts, Ben & Jerry's, Smart Balance, and Target home brands by the end of this year. If these non-GMO products increase in market share, it means that the rest of the food industry will likely follow suit, he added.

In the latter half, author, clairvoyant, and earth mysteries investigator, Betsey Lewis, discussed communications from the Other Side, as well as her psychic premonitions and visions. She believes her own sister returned in spirit form after dying in order to validate the Other Side, and has communicated with her numerous times, including by levitating utensils off the kitchen counter. Lewis has concluded that reincarnation is a genuine process, with people coming back to learn lessons of love and forgiveness over hundreds or even possibly thousands of lives. Typically, a person will reincarnate about 100 years after their previous life, she noted.
In her younger years, Lewis had visions of three classmates in high school dying in accidents, which all came to pass. She also had a premonition about the assassination of Robert F. Kennedy, as well as a sense of foreboding when she visited a rock star's home in Beverly Hills in 1966 (three years later, the home was the site of the Sharon Tate/Manson murders). Lewis shared that her mother was married to Maurice Blatty, the brother of The Exorcist author William Peter Blatty. She learned that Bill Blatty was fascinated with the paranormal, and experimented with reel-to-reel tapes and captured some startling EVP (electronic voice phenomena), which were found to have anomalous qualities when studied by a university.
