Show: Coast To Coast AM

Air Date: May 18, 1999

Guest(s): Neil Slade, Stewart Best

Topic(s): Pole Shift and Earth Changes, The Brain

Art introduces the show from the high desert, noting the various locations listeners may be tuning in from. He mentions the busy program planned, including an unexpected appearance by Neil Slade, a brain researcher known for his experiments. The news includes the upcoming premiere of “Star Wars” and a new experimental cold remedy. Art also shares a bizarre story about a headless chicken named Mike, who lived for years despite being decapitated, due to the brain stem being left intact.

Neil Slade discusses his background in brain research, having worked with Dr. T.D.A. Lingo at the Dormant Brain Research and Development Laboratory. Art and Neil delve into the chicken story, exploring how Mike could survive without a head, emphasizing the role of the brain stem. Neil explains that the brain stem controls basic survival functions, allowing Mike to continue some behaviors despite his condition. Neil shares that Mike even tried to crow and continued typical chicken behaviors, providing insight into the resilience and adaptability of brain functions.

Neil Slade continues discussing the unique capabilities of the brain stem, noting its role in basic survival functions. Art and Neil explore the phenomenon of people living with minimal brain tissue due to diseases like hydrocephalitis, which destroys brain matter but leaves individuals functioning relatively normally. They talk about the resilience of the brain, referencing cases where people have lived with only the brain stem intact. Neil mentions a surgery called hemispherectomy, used to treat severe epilepsy by removing one hemisphere of the brain, with the remaining half compensating for the loss. Art and Neil conclude that much of the brain’s capacity remains a mystery, as demonstrated by Mike the headless chicken living for four and a half years without a head.

Art encourages listeners to visit his website to see a photo of Mike the headless chicken. Neil discusses the basic functions controlled by the brain stem, such as breathing and heart rate. He explains the structure of the brain, comparing it to a jawbreaker or an apple, with the reptile brain at the core, followed by the mammal brain, and the primate brain. The most advanced part, the frontal lobe, is responsible for higher cognitive functions like creativity and logic.

Neil emphasizes that humans can engage in complex behaviors and paranormal abilities thanks to the frontal lobe. He introduces the concept of “clicking” the amygdala to unlock these abilities, a process he claims can be taught and achieved through mental exercises. Art humorously mentions using an experimental youth serum to explain his youthful voice. Neil asserts that the amygdala’s role in brain function is gaining recognition, and encourages listeners to try an experiment to activate it and achieve heightened mental states, such as blowing a hole in a cloud.

Neil explains how to identify the amygdala and its role in brain function, suggesting using the sense of smell as olfactory nerves connect directly to the amygdala. He describes how the amygdala switch can be clicked forward into the frontal lobe to enhance higher cognitive abilities or backward into the reptile brain, reducing them to basic survival functions. Neil guides listeners on mentally locating and manipulating these switches, highlighting their independent control and specific uses, such as for visual activities or complex problem-solving.

Art and Neil revisit the concept of cloud busting, with Neil describing a video demonstration available on his website. He emphasizes that by imagining tickling the amygdala, one can activate it and stimulate the frontal lobes, leading to increased brain activity. Neil calls this process “American tickler,” likening it to a jump start for the brain. He explains that repeated activation can build new neural connections, enhancing cognitive functions and potentially leading to vivid sensory experiences for some individuals.

Neil Slade explains that activating the amygdala can lead to spontaneous telepathy and increased creativity, as demonstrated in standardized tests at the brain lab. Art asks if it’s possible for someone proficient in this technique to activate another person’s amygdala externally. Neil confirms that positive energy and emotions can be contagious, helping others activate their amygdala. He promotes his book “Brain Magic,” which provides a month-long series of daily activities to help people understand and use their brain’s full potential.

Neil provides his contact information and expresses interest in planning a full program with Art in the future. Art concludes the segment, highlighting the amazing nature of the discussion and transitions to the next topic, polar shifts, introducing Stewart Best, an author and video producer known for his work on earth changes and Christian prophecy.

Stewart Best explains he is located in Wheeler, Wisconsin, and has done extensive research and video productions on topics such as Atlantis and UFOs. Art introduces the concept of polar shifts, where the North and South Poles reverse positions. Stewart states this has likely happened seven to eight times in Earth’s history, with significant events potentially occurring during the time of Noah’s flood and the days of Peleg, which may have caused massive earthquakes and continental shifts.

Stewart describes that a polar reversal could occur within a single day, leading to catastrophic consequences. He explains that during a shift, the Earth’s surface changes direction rapidly, but the atmosphere does not, creating devastating winds and weather patterns. Stewart references biblical texts to support his claims, suggesting that the shift would cause total destruction. The conversation highlights the immense danger and dramatic changes that a polar reversal could bring, including 800-mile-per-hour winds and a rapid freeze due to the atmosphere’s displacement.

Stewart explains that extreme cold from the upper atmosphere could instantaneously freeze anything on the Earth’s surface during a polar shift, potentially explaining findings like quick-frozen woolly mammoths in Siberia. He notes that violent weather patterns we see today are early warning signs of an impending polar shift. Art recounts the Fujita scale of tornadoes, emphasizing the increasing severity of weather events, which Stewart confirms as harbingers of a shift.

Art mentions receiving reports of compass deviations, suggesting a wandering magnetic pole. Stewart explains that a magnetic pole shift, which could involve the magnetic field collapsing to zero, might precede a physical pole shift. This collapse would leave the Earth unprotected from lethal solar rays, especially dangerous during a solar maximum. Stewart mentions research suggesting that such events cause great earthquakes and reorientation of the poles.

Art brings up Major Ed Dames’ remote viewing prediction of a “killshot” from the sun, aligning with Stewart’s discussion of solar activity impacting the Earth. Stewart references biblical prophecies of a solar nova coinciding with a polar shift, leading to dramatic changes in celestial behavior. Despite the catastrophic nature of these events, Stewart asserts that survivors are mentioned in scriptures, though survival would depend heavily on one’s location relative to the shift.

Stewart explains that during a polar shift, those near the pivot point would experience minimal effects, while those further away would face tremendous damage. Art reiterates the importance of paying attention to these warnings, referencing a 1997 Seattle Times article about rapid continental shifts that caused significant changes in Earth’s biodiversity during the Cambrian explosion. This supports the possibility of future polar shifts and their potential impact.

Stewart discusses how such shifts would lead to massive rearrangements of Earth’s surface, altering climates and ecosystems. He mentions signs of an impending shift, such as rapid weather changes, fluctuations in magnetic poles, and changes in animal migratory patterns. Art adds reports of homing pigeons and other birds exhibiting unusual behavior, aligning with Stewart’s claims. Stewart recalls noticing changes in storm patterns and increasing storm heights during his professional flying career, which are further signs of environmental instability.

They discuss recent unusual earthquake activity, including a swarm near Mammoth Lakes and a quake in Kansas City, highlighting the increasing seismic activity in unexpected locations. Stewart warns that areas like Mammoth Lakes and parts of California, including San Diego, could face significant danger, potentially even submersion underwater.

Stewart elaborates on the dangers facing the western United States, particularly California, where fault lines suggest severe seismic activity. He references maps from visionaries like Gordon Michael Scallion, highlighting areas at risk of submersion. Art mentions the current alarming earthquake activity at Mammoth Lakes, suggesting the potential birth of a new volcano.

Stewart discusses how volcanoes are predicted to rise again, supported by ancient prophecies and modern observations. Art recalls an interview with a Hopi elder who issued a similar warning about imminent earth changes. Stewart and Art note that various sources, from biblical chronologies to mystics and psychics, predict significant events around the turn of the millennium, converging on the 1997-2010 timeframe. Nostradamus’s quatrains, near-death experiences, and remote viewing all point to this period of upheaval.

They touch on the current geopolitical situation, particularly the conflict in Yugoslavia, which many believe could spark World War III. Stewart emphasizes the growing alliance between Russia, China, India, and Muslim nations, spurred by recent events like the bombing of the Chinese embassy. He suggests Turkey, currently aligned with Israel and NATO, might shift towards a more radical Islamic stance, aligning with biblical prophecies. Art and Stewart agree that these converging predictions indicate we may be entering a period of significant global changes, referred to in various traditions as the final days, the time of purification, or the tribulation period.

Stewart discusses the likelihood of Israel launching a preemptive strike on Damascus due to rising tensions with Russia and Syria, and the rearming of Iraq and Iran. He suggests the United States might become involved in a three-front war, with North Korea heating up and ongoing bombing in Iraq. Stewart notes that according to biblical prophecies, the U.S. will engage in a significant but short-lived war with Persia (Iran and Iraq), which will end in U.S. victory but further escalate global tensions.

Art questions the concept of “bombing for peace,” to which Stewart responds that these actions are steps toward a larger conflict, potentially leading to a surprise nuclear attack on the U.S. Stewart believes this could happen as soon as this fall or within the next ten years, depending on whether biblical chronologies are based on the birth or crucifixion of Christ.

They discuss signs of the approaching end times, such as powerful earthquakes, famines, pestilences, and strange signs from the heavens. Stewart mentions various prophecies about a green haze and speculates on electromagnetic storms as a possible cause. He notes the ongoing solar activity and the possibility of entering regions of space with more comets and asteroids.

Art and Stewart talk about increasing reports of giant fireballs, some green, which have been linked to major earthquake activity by some scientists. They also discuss plasma balls forming in the atmosphere, which might correlate with earthquake activity.

Art returns from a break, addressing skepticism about the story of Mike the headless chicken and confirming its truth. He then shares recent sightings of unusual objects over the western US, reported by Peter Davenport from the National UFO Reporting Center, including an orange fireball in San Antonio, an oval object in Ventura, and a triangular object near Salt Lake City Airport. Davenport also notes an explosion over northern Wisconsin, described as a mushroom cloud.

Art and Stewart discuss the increasing frequency of strange phenomena, including a record-breaking snowfall on Mount Baker, raising concerns about potential avalanches. A listener’s question prompts Stewart to speculate on the survivability of a polar shift event by going underground. Stewart references biblical accounts of giants surviving past cataclysmic events, suggesting that some may have gone underground.

Stewart explains that predicting safe locations during a polar shift is nearly impossible due to the unpredictable nature of the event. He mentions that certain nations, including the US, are scripturally targeted for destruction due to moral and spiritual decline. Stewart describes the US as leading the formation of an ostensibly benevolent but ultimately evil world empire, pointing to NATO’s actions in Yugoslavia as evidence of overreach and violation of its defensive mandate.

Stewart elaborates on NATO’s recent declaration that it will conduct military operations beyond its borders, which he sees as a significant step towards the New World Order. He asserts that this New World Order is inevitable and cannot be stopped. Stewart believes this emerging world order will coincide with or precede major earth changes, including a polar shift. He suggests that current global conflicts, like those in Yugoslavia, are early phases of World War III, leading to significant destruction followed by a period of calm during which the New World Order will solidify.

Stewart explains that the current United Nations structure is designed to fail, lacking the necessary power and army to prevent conflicts. He predicts that a major war will lead to calls for a stronger world government, which will result in a loss of personal freedoms as global control and surveillance intensify. Art and Stewart discuss the idea that returning to constitutional principles could prevent this outcome, but Stewart expresses skepticism about the public’s willingness to demand such changes due to widespread apathy.

They then address the theological implications of these events, with Stewart arguing that humanity brings suffering upon itself through free will, as described in the Bible. He explains the story of Genesis, where humanity’s original sin led to a fundamental change in human nature, shifting from pure love to a mixture of good and evil. Stewart concludes by explaining that Jesus Christ’s mission was to offer a path to redemption and rebirth, restoring the original love in those who follow him.

Art and Stewart delve into the troubling rise of violence among youth, highlighted by the Columbine massacre. They note that while adult crime rates are declining, youth violence appears to be increasing, a phenomenon they struggle to comprehend. Stewart believes this trend reflects a deeper issue, which he links to a moral and spiritual decline in society. He suggests that this soulless behavior among young people may be tied to a broader, cosmic judgment.

As the conversation shifts, Art mentions signs of a potential polar shift, asking if people would want to know as the signs accumulate, such as deviations in compass readings. Stewart agrees and adds that recent scientific observations of massive solar flares, or “super flares,” support the idea that the sun could exhibit catastrophic behavior. These flares could significantly increase solar radiation, aligning with biblical prophecies about the sun’s intense future activity.

Stewart points out that biblical texts suggest the sun will give off seven times its current light, and the moon will shine as brightly as the sun. He explains that this could be mitigated by a shortening of days, a concept he interprets as a reduction in the Earth’s rotational period. This aligns with prophecies that describe a third less light from the sun, moon, and stars, which he interprets as a day shortened to 16 hours.

Returning to youth violence, Stewart discusses disturbing trends in education, where children are exposed to death education and values clarification courses that strip them of their spiritual and moral foundations. He argues that this contributes to the soulless behavior seen in recent years. Art agrees, noting that this behavior seems devoid of empathy and conscience, reflecting a deeper spiritual crisis in society.

Art and Stewart discuss the moral decline within churches, noting that even those who are religious often fail to live up to their own standards. They take a call from Jim in Hawaii, a Christian missionary, who expresses his concern about America’s moral and spiritual state. Jim mentions the belief that Satan and a third of the angels have been cast down to Earth, contributing to the chaos.

Stewart then introduces the topic of UFOs, referring to his work “UFOs: Gateway to Hell.” Art shares his personal experience of seeing a massive, silent, triangular UFO, and Stewart confirms similar sightings, including one by his wife. Stewart recounts a story from a lieutenant commander in the Navy who claimed to have firsthand knowledge of a government encounter with a UFO in the 1950s, where high-level personnel boarded the craft.

Art shares recent reports from pilots who experienced disorientation and physical effects while flying near Minneapolis. One pilot described an unusual northern lights display that caused disorientation, while another reported burns similar to sunburn after flying in the same area. Stewart suggests these phenomena might be related to Tesla standing waves and mentions the possibility of secret experiments involving Tesla technology.

Stewart explains that the U.S. and Russia have set up large transmitters, including ELF (extremely low frequency) transmitters, that can create standing waves. These waves could potentially cause unusual atmospheric and weather phenomena, such as earthquakes and severe storms. He ties this to biblical prophecies about a false messiah arriving with deceptive signs and wonders, hinting at the manipulation of natural forces through advanced technology.

Stewart discusses the potential use of high technology and black operations to deceive the world, as suggested by Project Blue Beam. This project allegedly involved holographic transmissions to simulate the arrival of a messiah, catering to different religious expectations across cultures. The goal is to exploit humanity’s spiritual nature to establish control, a concept supported by biblical references to a “strong delusion.”

Art shares his belief in a creator and admits he could be easily convinced by a realistic messiah appearance, which ties into the UFO phenomenon. Stewart tells a story about a lieutenant commander in the Navy who confirmed the reality of UFOs and described a government encounter with a landed UFO. Art recounts recent experiences of pilots encountering disorienting northern lights displays and physical burns, which Stewart attributes to Tesla standing waves, possibly linked to secret experiments.

A caller named Carl from Oklahoma discusses his theory on polar shifts, attributing them to the Earth’s core synchronization with the moon’s gravitational pull, leading to atmospheric expansion and flash freezing. Carl also mentions two different alien species, one existing for 22 billion years and the other for 12 billion years, suggesting the presence of ancient extraterrestrial life.

Art and Stewart plan to explore the nature of UFOs further, considering whether they come from space, underground, or other dimensions. They end the segment with a reflection on the bizarre yet documented cases like Mike the headless chicken and an American bomber pilot who, despite severe injuries, performed actions demonstrating the incredible resilience of life and consciousness.

Stewart explains the concept of eternity as described in scripture, emphasizing that it is not endless time but the absence of time, transporting one out of the time-space continuum into an eternal future. He references near-death experiences where individuals claim to have experienced timelessness, such as music without a beat. Art and Stewart discuss the biblical idea that God exists outside of time, seeing all of history simultaneously, which is how prophecies are conveyed with such accuracy.

Stewart elaborates that biblical prophecy is considered historical fact rather than prediction because it is based on God’s all-encompassing view of time. Prophets like Jeremiah, Isaiah, Ezekiel, and Daniel were deemed true prophets because their prophecies were 100% accurate. Art questions the accuracy of modern seers like Gordon Michael Scallion, who are not always correct. Stewart suggests that visions’ accuracy determines their divine origin, with true prophecies always coming to pass.

Stewart shares that many people, including himself, have experienced visions indicating that 1999 and 2000 would be tumultuous years, particularly for the United States. He describes a vivid dream-vision in which he was taken to Washington, D.C., and shown that the country’s political machinations were futile because judgment had already been decided. This vision conveyed a strong impression that America’s time was up, likening it to the biblical judgment of Babylon.

A caller from Lake Geneva, Wisconsin, asks Stewart for scriptural backing for his claims. Art explains that while Stewart has scriptural references, he prefers not to turn the show into a Sunday school session by quoting them extensively. Stewart mentions the concept of a strong delusion from the scriptures, which he believes is relevant to the current times.

Stewart discusses the biblical prophecy of a strong delusion sent by God to deceive those who reject His word and His Son. This delusion, according to Stewart, includes the alien and UFO phenomena, which challenge traditional creation beliefs. He notes that the Bible predicts the world will reject its teachings as the end times approach, leading to divine retribution.

A caller asks about the giants mentioned in Genesis, to which Stewart responds that the giants existed both before and after the flood, implying a continued presence through the Nephilim. Another caller highlights the significant increase in earthquake activity, particularly around Mammoth Lakes, suggesting a volcanic event may be imminent.

The conversation shifts to a recent report from the Temple Mount Faithful about water flowing from the Holy Rock of Abraham and Isaac. This phenomenon is seen as the beginning of the fulfillment of a prophecy in Ezekiel, which foretells a stream flowing from the rock to purify waters and bring healing.

A caller from Oklahoma inquires about the Earth’s magnetic field and its connection to electric currents. Stewart explains that the Earth’s magnetic field operates like a dynamo, influenced by the sun’s magnetic activity. He notes that both the Earth and the sun undergo polar shifts, and current solar activity (Cycle 23) could be related to an impending polar shift on Earth.

Art reads an email confirming the news of water flowing from the Holy Rock on the Temple Mount, regarded as a sign of redemption.

Art and Stewart discuss an email regarding water flowing from the Holy Rock of Abraham and Isaac, a sign anticipated by the Jewish people as one of the last days and the redemption of Israel, leading to the third temple. This phenomenon, which some are trying to stop using special pumps, has generated significant excitement in Israel.

Paul from Tempe, Arizona, calls in and refers to physicist Michio Kaku’s classification of civilizations, hinting at a shift in human civilization. He suggests that our planet is undergoing a classification shift, possibly moving from a Type 0 to a Type 1 civilization. This transition involves significant evolutionary changes and the handling of planetary-scale issues.

Art and Stewart express interest in exploring this idea further, though the concept is complex and time-consuming. They acknowledge the spiritual upliftment some individuals feel and how it ties into broader changes happening on the planet. The discussion reflects on the difficulty of advancing as a civilization while facing numerous global challenges.

A caller discusses the possibility of human civilization moving from a Type 0 to a Type 1 on Michio Kaku’s scale, suggesting that achieving planetary control requires addressing existential threats like supernovae. The caller emphasizes the need for a spiritual paradigm shift to navigate these challenges.

Art and Stewart explore the idea that advanced civilizations might exist elsewhere in the universe, potentially even visiting Earth. Stewart references biblical texts, suggesting that other beings in the heavens might be the targets of divine wrath. He notes Jesus’ comment about having other sheep, hinting at the existence of other intelligent life forms.

A caller from Kentucky asks about the writings of Enoch and their availability, noting their extra-biblical status but relevance due to biblical quotations. Stewart confirms that Enoch’s book is challenging to find but available through specific sources. Another caller inquires about biblical references to the United States’ destruction, and Stewart points to passages in Isaiah, Jeremiah, and Revelation, where Babylon is a code word for the U.S.

Art mentions a ghostly image seen by a fireman, prompting Stewart to explain that ghosts are acknowledged in the Bible, as indicated by Jesus’ reference to them when addressing doubting Thomas. Another caller from Bozeman, Montana, brings up a theory about the shifting of Earth’s crust, noting how accumulated snow and ice at the poles and mountains create torque, leading to increased volcanic activity and further crustal shifts.

A caller mentions Charles Hapgood’s theory that North America could shift south by 4,000 miles in just four days due to crustal displacement, explaining the rapid freezing of woolly mammoths. This theory suggests the shifting of the Earth’s crust rather than the magnetic poles. The caller also discusses potential factors like nuclear attacks, which could contribute to such a shift.

Stewart points out that since the 1930s, the North Pole has moved significantly, affecting navigational systems and necessitating updates in airport runway designations, as seen in Minneapolis-Saint Paul and Portland. The caller further explains that as the crust moves closer to the equator, the equatorial bulge increases, leading to flooding in areas like the United States while parts of the equator rise.

They discuss the impact of these changes on global geography, referencing the sinking and rising of Atlantis as a historical analogy. Stewart cites the Book of Revelation, which mentions angels controlling the winds, causing the seas to pile up differently. If these winds were to stop, even without a polar shift, the resulting tsunamis would be catastrophic.

The conversation shifts to discussing the scientific reluctance to accept rapid, catastrophic changes due to entrenched theories. Stewart and the caller agree that both creation and evolution could coexist, with creation providing the framework for life’s ability to adapt rapidly in response to catastrophic events.

Another caller from the East of the Rockies proposes that the oceans could act as a lens, focusing heat on the Earth’s core, potentially affecting volcanic and seismic activity. They reference the Ring of Fire and express interest in further exploration of astrogeology and volcanology.

The final caller suggests that the ocean acting as a lens could contribute to global warming by focusing the sun’s heat on the Earth’s core, potentially affecting its temperature and volcanic activity. Art acknowledges that this theory, while interesting, aligns with broader discussions about global warming and the impact of atmospheric changes.

As the show concludes, Art highlights the link to Stewart’s website and provides a phone number for those interested in learning more about his work. Stewart mentions various topics covered in his videos, including political content, UFOs, and the Atlantis chronicles. He announces an upcoming documentary titled “Mega Earth Changes and the Coming Polar Shift,” set to release in June.

Art thanks Stewart for being an excellent guest and provides a preview of upcoming shows, including discussions on time travel with Dr. Bruce Goldberg and a session with Kevin Ryerson. Art wraps up the show from the high desert.
