Show Sample for 01/14/26: ALIEN TECH - THE HIDDEN ARMS RACE W/ GENE STICCO AND DR. GREGORY ROGERS

Although the worldwide Netflix phenomenon Stranger Things was released in 2016, the Internet is finally catching up a decade later in realizing that the show is both loosely and firmly based on both real historical programs and popular conspiracy theories. But Stranger Things is more than that; it incorporates cultural nostalgia, even of the negative kind, like the Satanic Panic, and puts historical Easter eggs in every season. From Project Rainbow to Astral Projection, and from MK Ultra to child abuse and Project Montauk, many of the themes present in the show are also anything but unique. They pull from myth, legend, and folklore, and in some ways touch on ritual magic and the dark arts. The synchronicities of the show are as powerful today as the archetypal characters of Star Wars were to the 1970s. In the upside down of all this, however, is a world of real science, including real DOE National Laboratories like the Idaho National Lab alongside the labs involved in the Manhattan Project. Tonight on Ground Zero, Ryan Gable fills in for Clyde Lewis and talks with synchrocity researcher, Derek Murphy about STRANGER THINGAMAJIGS. Listen at 7pm, pacific time on groundzeroplus.com.

Have you ever wondered what ever happened to the Mafia? Throughout the 20th century, they were recognized as one of the most notorious crime organizations in the world. Feared by many, the Mafia has been depicted as brutal thugs in sensationalized movies and TV series. Consequently, there have been stereotypes created about Italians and Sicilians that are negative and shed a bad light upon their ethnicity and culture. Furthermore, there are worldwide crime syndicates that have been in the shadows without as much notoriety. Tonight on Ground Zero, JP Bovenzi from The Paradigm Shift fills in for Clyde Lewis and talks with Chuck Ochelli from The Ochelli Effect as they separate fact from fiction and talk candidly about THE MAFIA - MYTHS AND REALITIES. Listen on groundzeroplus.com at 7pm, pacific time.

Have world governments secretly recovered and reverse-engineered extraterrestrial technology? Explosive claims that non-human craft have been retrieved, studied, and hidden from the public have surfaced in congressional testimony and documentaries. Revelations of UFO reverse-engineering programs by the U.S., U.K., and the Soviets, to name a few, are further examples of a covert global arms race for alien tech. Were these programs scrapped or simply buried deeper? And if such technology exists, could it revolutionize life as we know it? Tonight, Jeremy Scott sits in for Clyde Lewis and talks with retired U.S. Air Force Staff Sergeant Gene Sticco, and former NASA & Air Force flight surgeon, Dr. Gregory Rogers, about "Alien Tech: The Hidden Arms Race".

The new food pyramid has arrived after much anticipation and delay, even speculation and conspiracy, after the 2025 MAHA Report was riddled with errors and sources, or the lack thereof, indicating the use of AI in its preparation. Now, like an episode of South Park, RFK Jr has flipped the original food pyramid upside down. Is the new food pyramid and health guidance, which few refer to anyway, actually going to make Americans healthier or is it another pyramid scheme? On this episode of Ground Zero, Ryan Gable fills in for Clyde Lewis and discusses the - Food Pyramid Scheme.

What are the crimes of A.I.—right now, in the real world—and who benefits? Tonight on Ground Zero with Clyde Lewis, guest-host Richard Syrett goes straight at the question most networks won’t touch without a corporate sponsor hovering over the copy desk. His guest is Dr. Katherine Albrecht: internationally known privacy expert, bestselling author, and co-founder of the encrypted email service StartMail. For decades, she has mapped the hidden infrastructure of surveillance—warning about RFID tracking, corporate data extraction, and the steady conversion of human life into something measurable, tradable, and controllable. This episode frames A.I. less as a shiny tool and more as a multiplier for misconduct—a system that can industrialize harm at scale, then shrug and blame “the algorithm.”

The new year serves as a natural moment for reflection and reset. This sense of starting over seems to be connected with cycles in nature and the sky. Humanity has long been fascinated with celestial events – of which there are many to look forward to in 2026 – the “Year of the Fire Horse” in the Chinese Zodiac. Our emotions, behaviors, and relationships have come to be associated with the movements of planetary bodies. Understanding these cycles can help with self-awareness, emotional balance, and personal growth. Tonight, Jeremy Scott sits in for Clyde Lewis and is joined by astrologers Mary Dusina and Jeff Harman They discuss ‘The Cosmic Reset’ – a coming global transformation marked by geopolitical tensions, unrest, and days of disclosure during what could be one of the most game-changing cycles this century.

Of all the opinions and perspectives on Venezuela, the re-emergence of the Iraq Stargate conspiracy was surprising. The claim is that US involvement in this South American country is a result of recently discovered artifacts and archaeological sites. The Venezuela Stargate conspiracy doesn’t seem as popular, but it might lead to similar obfuscation of the motivations from oil companies and gold miners. These sensationalized cosmic claims and their implications of aliens are cheaply produced clickbait. Tonight on this episode of Ground Zero, Ryan Gable talks with Jared Murphy about VENEZUELAN STARGATES.

Tonight on Ground Zero with Clyde Lewis—guest-hosted by Richard Syrett—we tear away the veil on a war most people don’t even realize they’re fighting. Author and researcher David Masters joins Richard to expose what he calls the oldest conflict in human history—an Invisible Spiritual War waged not with bombs or bullets, but with thoughts, trauma, technology, and deception. This is not a metaphor. This is not theology-as-poetry. According to Masters, it is an active, strategic battle for the human soul, unfolding right now—quietly, relentlessly, and by invitation.

There are several words-of-year for 2025: Oxford has "rage bait" after last year's "brain rot." Webster has "slop." Dictionary.com has "67," which is a diverse meme. This year has continued the 2024 trend of a planet spinning much faster than has been recorded before, triggering debates about removing a second from the clock, i.e., the negative leap second. 2025 also brought us, as evidenced by the online slop of 67, which results in perpetual rage bait and a variety of increasingly dumber conspiracies. Tonight, Ryan Gable fills in for Clyde Lewis and talks with the founder of Reverse Speech, David Oates. Listen to Ground Zero, M-F, 7-10pm, pacific on groundzeroplus.com.
