Keith Thompson: Anomalous Phenomena—UFOs, Apports, and the Mystery of Consciousness
Can objects appear out of nowhere? Can dreams reveal hidden truths? What might encounters with ghosts, UFOs, and phantom companions tell us about consciousness and the nature of reality? On this episode of Destiny, Cliff Dunning welcomes author and independent journalist Keith Thompson to explore his book, Anomalous Phenomena. Drawing on archival accounts, eyewitness testimony, personal experiences, and field investigations, Thompson examines extraordinary reports that challenge familiar boundaries between mind and matter.
We explore apports—objects reported to materialize, vanish, or mysteriously relocate—and the Scole Experiment, known for its controversial claims of physical materializations and spirit communication. The conversation also considers ancestral dreams, telepathy, apparitions, spontaneous healing, and UFO encounters in which witnesses describe an apparent response to human thought or intention.
From phantom companions guiding explorers through danger to mysterious lights and encounters with the departed, these accounts raise compelling questions: How should we investigate experiences that resist conventional explanations? Could intention and meaning play a greater role in human experience than we understand?
Thompson is the author of The UFO Paradox and Angels and Aliens. His writing has appeared in The New York Times, Esquire, and the San Francisco Chronicle. Join us for an exploration of unexplained phenomena, expanded consciousness, and the enduring mysteries of human experience.

What if the greatest secret of North American prehistory lies not in Egypt or Mesoamerica, but in the ancient hills of the Ozarks?For twenty years, researcher F. K. Sterling walked the hollows, sat on family porches, and listened to the land. What he discovered challenges everything we believe about the deep past: a sophisticated pre-catastrophe civilization that used the Ozark Plateau as its final refuge after the Younger Dryas comet impact 12,900 years ago.This is not myth.Anomalous giant skeletons reported in nineteenth-century newspapers. Heart-stones and counting holes carved into limestone. Oral traditions from Cherokee, Osage, and Quapaw elders describing pale, tall "Moon-Eyed People" who already lived inside the mountains when their ancestors arrived. Electromagnetic anomalies, singing ridges, and lights rising from springs.Connecting the submerged ruins off Florida and the Bahamas to the ceremonial centers of Crystal River and the geometric precision of the Hopewell and Cahokia earthworks, Sterling reveals a lost civilization that did not vanish - it withdrew underground, preserving its knowledge through twelve thousand years of darkness.The hills remember.The springs still sing.And according to the old families who still keep the watch, some of them never left.

The search for Noah’s Ark continues in eastern Turkey, where the boat-shaped Durupınar formation near Mount Ararat remains a focus of investigation and debate. In 2026, a project led by Professor Cenker Atila of Sivas Cumhuriyet University, working with Noah’s Ark Scans, began a new phase of geological and archaeological research. Ground-penetrating radar, electrical resistivity surveys, aerial mapping, and drilling are being used to investigate what lies beneath the surface. Researchers hope to determine whether the formation contains evidence of construction or owes its appearance entirely to natural processes. No verified discovery of Noah’s Ark has been established.
