What Exactly IS The Buga Sphere - The Paranormal Podcast 912
Jim welcomes Josh Golembeske of Cosmic Disclosure on Gaia to discuss the mysterious object known as the Buga Sphere, discovered in Colombia and now at the center of intense debate in UFO research circles. Josh explains how he came to hold the sphere himself and what he observed about its markings, composition, and rumored internal structure.
The conversation broadens into theories of reverse-engineered craft, consciousness research, and crash-retrieval programs, along with recent claims by whistleblowers and researchers like Jaime Maussan and Dr. Steven Greer. Thought-provoking and fast-moving, this episode explores the tension between belief, evidence, and speculation in today’s disclosure movement.

Did A UFO Kill A Hero Pilot? - The Paranormal Podcast 911
Jim talks with filmmaker Seth Breedlove of Small Town Monsters about his new documentary Lost Contact. The film explores the 1948 death of Captain Thomas Mantell, a decorated pilot who died while chasing a mysterious object over Kentucky. Seth shares what drew him to the story, why it remains an overlooked case in UFO history, and how it connects to the broader conversation about secrecy, heroism, and unexplained aerial encounters.
Jim and Seth also discuss how different areas of the paranormal world often stay in their own lanes and whether they might share more common ground than people think. They touch on government explanations, the media’s treatment of Mantell, and the human side of the story that deserves to be remembered.

Amazing Graves - The Paranormal Podcast 909
Author Tui Snyder joins Jim to explore some of the world’s most extraordinary burial sites and the stories they tell. From marble sculptures depicting a lover’s final farewell to wooden crosses painted with cheeky epitaphs in Romania, Tui reveals how art, humor, and faith intertwine in graveyards across the globe.
Together they discuss the evolution of cemetery art — from the grand monuments of the Victorian era to today’s simpler markers — and what those changes reveal about how we view life and death. Tui also shares highlights from her travels to places like Milan’s Cimitero Monumentale, where thousands of life-size sculptures turn the cemetery into an open-air museum. It’s a moving, fascinating conversation about the beauty and meaning found in the world’s “amazing graves.”
