In the first half, preparedness expert Matthew Stein outlined how people can deal with various disaster scenarios, as well as the public health threat from glyphosate (Monsanto's Roundup). A recent report detailed how American billionaires are stockpiling land and investing in bunkers and survival retreats. These billionaires are buying remote land in such states as Montana, Oregon, Wyoming, and North Dakota as a kind of insurance, in case they need a hideaway from an apocalyptic event. Natural or manmade disasters include an EMP or nuclear attack, a powerful solar flare, as well as pandemics and plagues, which have historically killed the greatest number of people, he cited.

In his 2010 article "The Perfect Storm: Six Trends Converging on Collapse," Stein detailed dire global issues such as climate change, peak oil, deforestation, and overpopulation, and in the last seven years we have done little to change the direction of these troubling scenarios, he remarked. People need to be prepared for both short and long term disruptions-- having strategic partners to team up with is the best way to go in terms of pooling resources and skills, he added. While GMOs in the diet are a health issue, Stein is more concerned about the levels of the herbicide glyphosate in our food supply, which he associates with the rise of a variety of chronic diseases.

In the latter half, anomaly hunter Billy Carson contended there is evidence for life on other planets and moons in our solar system. Along with the organization that he's part of-- the United Family of Anomaly Hunters (UFAH), he has studied anomalies-- many from NASA images. There are a preponderance of anomalous images on the Martian surface, which to him indicate signs of an ancient civilization. One of the most compelling, he suggested, is of a "couple" who seem to be frozen at the spot, as though engulfed in a Pompeii-like disaster.

Surprisingly, USGS radar imaging of Venus shows structures "that appear to be intact cities on the surface," he said, adding that previous Russian missions to that planet detected a craft that moved around. Even Mercury, he continued, which many consider to be a scalding ball of fire, has been found to have a high level of oxygen in its atmosphere and lots of ice and water. Back on Earth, underground honeycomb-like structures likely house intelligent beings, he added. The cover-up of all this information, he explained, is a way for elite groups to maintain power and control over the general populace.
