Art welcomes a new affiliate station in Joplin, Missouri, and discusses the wide reach of the show. He teases an upcoming interview with William Henry, who claims that America has a secret destiny and talks about a mysterious figure who supposedly visited America 2000 years ago with a secret message and a hidden device, set to return in the summer.
Art then shifts to discussing the extreme cold weather affecting the Midwest and East Coast, contrasting it with the milder conditions in his location. He touches upon the political climate, mentioning President Clinton’s upcoming Senate trial and the challenges faced by politicians due to Clinton’s high approval ratings. The conversation moves to international news, with a focus on U.S. Air Force and Navy jets engaging in dogfights with Iraqi Migs in the no-fly zone, highlighting the missed shots by U.S. missiles.
The segment also covers the Y2K problem, which has suddenly become a mainstream media topic as the new year begins. Art expresses surprise at the sudden shift in media attention to Y2K issues, pondering whether his show’s previous discussions on the topic had any influence. He reads a listener’s experience related to Y2K, involving a banking system glitch while shopping, adding a personal touch to the broader discussion of potential Y2K-related problems.
Art continues discussing the Y2K problem, sharing stories from listeners and other sources about early signs of Y2K-related issues. A listener recounts an experience where her bank account was erroneously shown as invalid, and her husband’s insurance was mistakenly listed as expired, both due to Y2K glitches. Another listener, an engineer for a TV station, describes a problem with the computer program used for scheduling commercials, which failed to recognize December 31st as a valid date.
Art also mentions a report from Singapore about taxi meters failing due to the millennium bug, highlighting the global impact of Y2K. He emphasizes that only a small percentage of Y2K problems are expected to occur on January 1, 2000, with the majority scattered throughout 1999 and 2000. The discussion then shifts to a more philosophical topic, as Art talks about an article regarding the phenomenon of closely linked people, like couples, dying at nearly the same time. He ponders whether this is a mere coincidence or something deeper, like a connection of souls.
The segment concludes with Art preparing to open the phone lines for listener calls, maintaining the show’s interactive and exploratory nature. He also mentions a movie, “What Dreams May Come,” recommending it to his audience for its thematic relevance to the topics discussed.
Art shares a personal anecdote about driving the Alaska Highway three times, describing it as an adventurous and memorable experience. Art humorously discusses the historical sale of Alaska from Russia to the U.S., joking about a Russian politician’s claim to take Alaska back.
The show then shifts to a preview of an upcoming special program titled “Disclosure 99.” Art outlines an impressive lineup of guests, including William Burns, Dr. John Brandenburg, Joseph Firmage, Dr. Steven Greer, Richard Hoagland, Peter Gersten, and Jim Mars, who will discuss various topics related to UFOs and extraterrestrial life.
Art also addresses a media report attempting to categorize the Center for the Study of Extraterrestrial Intelligence (CSETI) as a millennium cult, humorously suggesting that he might start wearing a robe with a giant ‘M’ to play into these claims. He then shares some “secret numbers” for the night, adding a mysterious and playful element to the show.
The segment concludes with Art taking calls from listeners. One caller from Winston-Salem, North Carolina, discusses a Y2K-related issue with credit card expiration dates at his hotel, highlighting the ongoing concerns about the millennium bug. Another caller from Houston starts to tell a Viagra joke but decides against it, leading to a discussion about the pattern of celebrities dying in threes, a topic that intrigues both Art and his audience.
He suggests it might be a real pattern or simply a perception due to the continuous nature of death. A caller shares his observation that couples who are deeply in love often die close together, whether they are old or young. Art agrees, noting that people can die of broken hearts, as the mind has significant control over the body.
Art then takes a call from Tyler in Seattle, who asks about a previous show with Dr. Reid. Art informs him that the show already aired and advises him to check the archives for the episode. Another caller, Marsha from Fort Smith, Arkansas, talks about a Y2K preparedness store in Van Buren, Arkansas, highlighting the community’s proactive approach to potential Y2K issues. She also mentions purchasing a battery-free radio and attending a meeting where a woman shared her experience of being interrogated by a bank for withdrawing her money, hinting at possible bank profiling practices.
The segment also includes a story from a listener named Michael, who encountered a strange banking error where his ATM withdrawals were registered as deposits, leading to confusion about his account balance. Art comments on the importance of keeping a record in one’s checkbook, especially in light of these Y2K-related glitches.
Finally, a caller from Hawaii shares his wife’s theory on crop circles, suggesting they might be caused by microbes or bacteria under the soil, attempting to communicate with surface dwellers. This theory adds a new perspective to the ongoing mystery of crop circles.
The caller suggests that crop circles might be a form of communication from intelligent bugs or microbes beneath the soil, humorously dubbed “bug talk.” Art finds the idea as plausible as any other theory about crop circles and playfully speculates on what messages these crop circles could be conveying.
Art then discusses the media’s tendency to label various groups as cults, especially in the context of the approaching millennium. He humorously considers wearing a cape with a big ‘M’ for Mr. Millennium and issuing secret numbers each night, playing into the media’s narrative.
A caller from British Columbia brings up the proliferation of Y2K websites, noting that many seem to be selling products or services related to Y2K preparedness. Art acknowledges that fear surrounding Y2K is driving a market for these products, but he also emphasizes the importance of basic preparations. The conversation shifts to recent natural disasters and power outages, suggesting that these events are a reminder of the need for preparedness.
The segment concludes with a caller sharing a personal banking story related to Y2K. The caller found extra money in their account due to a banking error and debates whether to inform the bank. Art and the caller discuss the moral implications of this situation, with the caller eventually deciding to return the excess funds once they are financially stable.
A caller shares a personal story about accidentally receiving extra money while shopping and her decision to return it, highlighting the importance of honesty, especially when someone’s job might be at risk. Art and the caller discuss the moral complexities of dealing with unexpected financial gains, particularly when it involves large corporations like banks or insurance companies.
Art then teases the upcoming interview with William Henry, an author who claims that a significant figure, likely Jesus, visited America 2000 years ago to spread a secret message and hide a device, and is set to return. This intriguing topic ties into the millennium theme and the show’s exploration of mysterious and unexplained phenomena.
The conversation shifts to the media’s portrayal of various organizations as cults, with Art humorously considering adopting the persona of “Millennium Master” to play into these narratives. He mentions an article linking Dr. Steven Greer’s organization, CSETI, to a millennium cult, expressing skepticism about such classifications.
William Henry then joins the program, discussing his meeting with Mother Teresa and his insights into the “King of Terror” and the role of Y2K. He comments on the media’s sensationalism, particularly following the Heaven’s Gate incident, and the misrepresentation of spiritual beliefs and organizations. The segment ends with a discussion about the significant role of the star Sirius in various religions and the anticipation of Jesus’ return, according to Henry’s interpretation of ancient traditions.
Art delves into a fascinating discussion with guest William Henry about ancient mysteries and prophecies. Henry shares his insights on the Essenes, a Jewish sect, and their anticipation of not just one, but two messiahs: Jesus from the branch of David and another figure known as the interpreter of the word. He explains that the Dead Sea Scrolls, which contain sensitive details about the Essenes, have been largely overlooked by mainstream scholars.
Henry then introduces the concept of the “Pillar of Osiris,” an ancient device believed to open gateways to other worlds. He suggests that Jesus and John the Baptist were in possession of this device, which was used to channel souls to the Earth plane. According to Henry, this device predates Jesus and possibly originated from the planet Nibiru, brought to Earth after a cataclysmic event.
Art and Henry discuss the implications of this theory, including the possibility that extraterrestrial beings, acting as agents of the creator, were involved in these ancient events. Henry ties these ideas to various traditions, including Sumerian, Egyptian, and Indian, suggesting a prehistoric origin for these stories.
The conversation shifts to a prophecy by Nostradamus about the return of the “King of Terror” in July 1999. Henry connects this prophecy to the ancient device, suggesting its historical presence in Mexico and its significance in Mayan tradition. He posits that the ancestors of the Mayans came from a place called Tula, which also had connections to Mongolia, and that the reunification of America and Mexico under NAFTA has significance in this context.
Art, maintaining a grounded approach, seeks clarification on these complex and interwoven theories, particularly regarding the anticipated return of a significant figure, akin to Jesus, in the summer of 1999.
Henry elaborates on the concept of Jesus and John the Baptist being perceived as terrorists in their time due to the radical nature of their teachings. He connects this to the term “King of Terror,” explaining that the mission of this figure centers around the Sphinx, known in Arab tradition as the “Father of Terror.”
Henry then delves into the history of the Holy Grail legend, tracing it back to 770 AD when Jesus supposedly appeared to a young Frenchman and dictated a book about the Grail. This book linked Jesus, terror, the Holy Grail, and enlightenment, suggesting a profound spiritual transformation that begins with terror and leads to enlightenment. Henry explains that the “bright white light” often associated with spiritual experiences is linked to the moon, which in Hebrew can mean both “mother” and “terror.”
The discussion shifts to Sumerian mythology and the cataclysm of the planet Tiamat, which Henry ties to the origins of Earth and the moon. He suggests that the moon was a crucial satellite in ancient times, possibly holding human genetic material and sacred records. This leads to the idea of the moon as a kind of “Death Star,” a repository of significant ancient knowledge.
Art Bell, acknowledging the complexity of these topics, expresses his intention to simplify the discussion for listeners. He aims to focus on the core idea of Jesus returning in July 1999, as predicted by Nostradamus, and the implications of a device placed on Earth before Jesus’ time.
Henry posits that the “King of Terror,” mentioned in Nostradamus’ prophecy, is likely Jesus Christ. He directs listeners to a photograph on his website, which shows an archway in France, specifically the door to the Church of Mary Magdalene in Rennes-le-Château. However, there seems to be a technical issue with the website link to a related image of a pillar, which Henry describes in detail.
Henry explains that this pillar, made of solid gold and approximately 45 feet tall, resembles an antenna and is believed to open gateways to other dimensions. He first discovered its depiction in Abydos, Egypt, and suggests that it was originally housed there. The pillar’s gold composition is significant, as gold is an excellent conductor, potentially relevant to the operation of this device.
The conversation then turns to the mythological aspects of the pillar. Henry draws parallels between various stories of slaying dragons or giants, such as David and Goliath, and Hercules’ battle with a giant. He suggests that these stories might symbolically represent the use of a frequency or tone to defeat these formidable foes. This leads to the hypothesis that the pillar could be a frequency-emitting device, possibly returning in our modern age.
Art Bell, acknowledging the complexity of these ideas, attempts to simplify the discussion for his audience. He focuses on the core concept of a powerful ancient device, potentially linked to Jesus Christ and significant mythological stories, and its implications for the present day.
Henry discusses the lyre, a seven-stringed harp, and its symbolic significance in taming man and beast. He connects this to the HAARP project in Alaska, suggesting that its transmissions could affect biological beings and that it might be a modern incarnation of an ancient archetype.
Henry explains that the primary job of the “King of Terror” (whom he associates with Jesus Christ) is to slay the dragon, a metaphor that can represent various entities or groups. He proposes that this could be related to the ionosphere and a sphere of souls surrounding the planet. According to Henry, an ancient device could channel souls into the Earth plane and lift this sphere of souls.
Art Bell questions the role of the creator in this scenario, given the emphasis on the Anunnaki in Sumerian mythology. Henry suggests that the Anunnaki were bio-spiritual engineers who genetically engineered humans as a resurrection machine, a biological technology. He disagrees with Zecharia Sitchin’s theory that the Anunnaki manipulated human DNA to mine gold, proposing instead that their goal was to rescue souls from a collapsed soul sphere of the destroyed planet Tiamat.
The conversation then shifts to the human affinity for gold. Art Bell points out that humans have an almost inexplicable passion for gold, which goes beyond its monetary value. Henry attempts to explain this by referring to the exploded planet hypothesis, suggesting that the planet Tiamat, a feminine-oriented civilization, released satellites before its destruction, which could be related to the human fascination with gold.
Henry suggests that the “King of Terror,” possibly Jesus Christ, is connected to a gold pillar that serves as an antenna or gateway to other dimensions. He believes this pillar was originally housed in Abydos, Egypt, and was made of solid gold.
Henry then discusses the HAARP project, suggesting it might be a modern version of an ancient technology used to affect biological beings. He connects this to the biblical story of David and Goliath, proposing that the stone used by David could symbolize a frequency or tone capable of defeating giants or dragons.
Art Bell questions how Henry’s theories reconcile with the biblical narrative, particularly the role of God and Jesus Christ. Henry believes that the blood of Christ is the key to exiting this world and returning to our former homeland. He suggests that his research has led him to discover a substance, which he prefers not to disclose yet, that could potentially cure cancer, AIDS, and leukemia, offering a more purified blood.
The conversation shifts to the Sumerian texts and the Anunnaki. Henry disagrees with Zecharia Sitchin’s theory that the Anunnaki manipulated human DNA to mine gold. Instead, he proposes that their primary mission was to rescue souls embedded in Earth following the destruction of the planet Tiamat, which he equates with Atlantis.
Art Bell summarizes the discussion, highlighting the idea that human souls are channeled to Earth through a device, not necessarily by God as traditionally understood. Henry emphasizes that the Anunnaki were not separate from humans but part of the same family, and their mission was to save souls.
Henry suggests that the Anunnaki, whom he describes as a Type Two civilization according to Dr. Michio Kaku’s classification, left a device on Earth known as the Pillar of Osiris, which has various names including the Tree of Peace and the Tree of Life. This device, made of solid gold, was used to open gateways to other dimensions and had been moved to various locations around the world, including France, Mexico, and possibly back to America.
Henry shares a fascinating theory that President Franklin D. Roosevelt sent agents to Mongolia in 1934 to search for this device, based on the belief that Jesus was reincarnated and living there. This mission was influenced by Henry Wallace, Roosevelt’s Secretary of Agriculture, who had unique spiritual beliefs. Henry also connects the Great Seal on the U.S. dollar bill to this narrative, suggesting it represents the return of the Christ or Messiah.
Art Bell then brings up the upcoming event in Egypt, where the gold capstone is to be replaced on the Great Pyramid as 2000 approaches. He also mentions that Dr. Zahi Hawass, the Director of Antiquities in Egypt, plans to permanently close the Great Pyramid. This leads to a discussion about the pyramid possibly being a communication device or a channel for souls, similar to the Pillar of Osiris.
In this segment Henry and Art Bell discuss the potential return of the “King of Terror,” which Henry associates with Jesus Christ. Henry suggests that the return of this figure will be a significant event, particularly in America, which he describes as the “land of destiny” and the focal point for the construction of the “New Jerusalem” or a new city of peace. This event, according to Henry, will mark the beginning of a thousand years of peace.
Henry also touches on the linguistic and symbolic significance of the word “cross” in the original biblical texts, suggesting it originally meant “pillar” or “star.” He believes that the King of Terror’s return will involve the creation of a temple school where people can absorb new teachings and align with the central point in heaven, from where souls are believed to have originated.
Art Bell questions how such a figure would be received in modern America, given the current climate of skepticism and the prevalence of claimed messiahs and cults. Henry acknowledges the challenge but suggests that mass communication could play a role in this event. He also emphasizes that it will be up to individuals to decide whether they believe in the authenticity of this figure.
The conversation then delves into numerology and symbolism, with Henry discussing the significance of the number 22 in various contexts, including the Hebrew alphabet and the Tarot deck. He interprets the story of the King of Terror as a fork in the road, a pivotal moment that will lead people in different directions.
Henry suggests that the return of this figure, which he associates with Jesus Christ, will occur in America, referred to as the “New Jerusalem.” He believes that life will continue as usual for most people, but this event will mark the beginning of a new era.
Henry also touches on the Y2K crisis, describing it as a setup or organized crisis to awaken people to the fact that they are off their path. He believes that Y2K is being used to prepare people for significant changes in old belief systems, social structures, and economic systems, leading to the emergence of a new world.
Art Bell questions the use of the term “scam” to describe Y2K, to which Henry clarifies that it’s more of a “second class Armageddon maneuver” designed to instill fear and distract people from higher spiritual solutions. Henry compares Y2K to the story of the Titanic, suggesting that like Atlantis, our civilization has become overdependent on technology and is at a pivotal moment similar to the one faced by Atlantis.
Henry shares an interesting anecdote about a group of sixth graders who, after watching the movie “Titanic,” came up with a novel solution to the ship’s sinking: turning the ship around and tying it to the iceberg until help could arrive. This story serves as a metaphor for the current situation humanity faces with Y2K, suggesting that innovative thinking and unconventional solutions may be necessary to navigate the challenges ahead.
Henry suggests that Y2K is just the tip of the iceberg, representing a deeper crisis in spirituality, politics, and other aspects of society. He proposes using technology to communicate the nature of this crisis and mentions Tesla technology, which he believes could assist in resolving the situation.
Henry also touches on the idea that Y2K was an intentional setup, a “second class Armageddon maneuver,” to instill fear and distract from higher spiritual solutions. He compares Y2K to the Titanic disaster, suggesting that our civilization, like Atlantis, has become overdependent on technology and is at a pivotal moment.
The conversation then shifts to Franklin D. Roosevelt’s alleged search for a mystical device related to Jesus Christ, based on the prophecies of Nostradamus and the influence of Henry Wallace, Roosevelt’s Secretary of Agriculture. Henry asserts that this search is well-documented and that Roosevelt and Wallace envisioned themselves as Grail knights, influenced by Sir Francis Bacon’s book “The New Atlantis.”
A caller from Virginia Beach asks about the Tree of Life, wondering if it’s the same as the one found in the Kabbalah. Henry confirms this, explaining that the Tree of Life manifests on three levels: as a technological device, as spiritual teachings encoded in the Kabbalah, and as a model in our spinal cord system. He also relates the DNA strand to the symbol of the caduceus, commonly used in medical contexts.
A caller, who claims to be the reincarnation of Khufu’s daughter, provides a detailed technical description of the “Jed Pillars,” which she asserts are electronic devices used in ancient times. She describes their components and functions, suggesting they were used to lift the blocks for the pyramids using electrostatic grids and gravitational manipulation.
The caller also mentions a lake under the Sphinx, which she believes could be a power source for these ancient technologies. Art Bell expresses intrigue but remains cautious about some of her claims.
Another caller discusses the connection between various historical and mythological elements, including Solomon’s Temple, Rennes-le-Château, Freemasonry, and the obelisk. He suggests that Jesus, as the “King of Terror,” will return not as a threat to believers but as a figure exposing the corrupt and powerful, likening him to a lion who will challenge the modern-day equivalent of the moneychangers in the temple.
William Henry agrees with this interpretation, seeing Jesus as a terror-inducing figure for those he will expose. Art Bell humorously wonders if Alan Greenspan, then Chairman of the Federal Reserve, will continue his work as usual after the supposed arrival of the “King of Terror” in July 1999.
A caller challenges Henry’s interpretation of the Great Seal on the U.S. dollar bill, suggesting it represents the eye of Lucifer, as per Masonic beliefs. Henry counters this by explaining the historical context of the Great Seal’s design, emphasizing that it was created under the guidance of figures like Benjamin Franklin, Thomas Jefferson, and John Adams, who were not Satan worshippers. He describes their intention to represent the American enterprise and connect with the God most people recognize, not Lucifer.
Another caller brings up sacred geometry, noting that the design of the Great Seal and other symbols are open to interpretation, much like the prophecies of Nostradamus. Henry agrees, acknowledging that these symbols and prophecies can be applied to various interpretations and current events.
Art Bell then reads a fax from a listener who expresses a defiant attitude towards the potential arrival of a figure claiming to be the “King of Terror” from the sky. The listener vows to resist such a figure, reflecting a sentiment of independence and skepticism towards extraterrestrial or mystical interventions.
Henry clarifies his position, stating he is not promoting a specific agenda but rather presenting research that can apply to various situations and interpretations. He acknowledges the divisive nature of religion and the problems arising from taking myth as literal fact.
A caller named April questions the focus on supporting the return of a deity from the Judeo-Christian tradition, given the cross-referencing of various mythologies. Henry responds by emphasizing the metaphorical nature of myths and the importance of not taking them literally. He agrees with April’s sentiment that society should focus more on the present world rather than debating unverifiable structures or entities.
Another caller, Don from Huntington Beach, asks Henry about his belief in reincarnation and references the works of Burton Mack and Bruce Metzger, who have studied the redaction and changes made to the New Testament. Henry acknowledges the significant differences between early New Testament scripts and later versions, such as the King James Bible.
A caller discusses the mistranslations in the Bible and how they have influenced modern theology. Another caller connects the Anunnaki’s genetic upgrading of Homo sapiens to the concept of souls being bound to Earth, suggesting that we might be on the verge of another genetic upgrade.
William Henry agrees with this idea, elaborating on his belief that the human body is a “resurrection machine” or a “flower of souls,” designed to facilitate the journey of souls. He also touches on the concept of the Earth being a “pit” or a remnant of the planet Tiamat, with human bodies envisioned as vessels for souls.
Art Bell raises a question about what will happen if the predicted events of July 1999 do not occur. Henry responds that his beliefs and work do not hinge solely on this event, and he will continue to develop his theories and research.
The conversation also touches on the nature of the human body as a vessel for the soul, with references to ancient texts and the role of the pineal gland in spiritual awakening. The segment concludes with Art Bell summarizing the discussion and acknowledging the complexity of the topics for some listeners.
Next William Henry discusses the potential return of creator beings responsible for the redesign of the human species, suggesting they might come back in July 1999 to construct a new holy city or a new city of peace. He explains that their definition of peace involves linking Earth with higher beings and that this process might extend until around 2012, aligning with the end of the Mayan calendar.
Henry also touches on the significance of the date 9/9/1999 and its connection to Egyptian hieroglyphics, where flags often represent the places where god beings lived. He acknowledges the cyclical nature of these events, noting that similar predictions and searches for power tools by people in power have occurred in past new ages.
A caller brings up the concept of scale, from gluons and atoms to galaxies and galaxy clusters, and wonders how these scales factor into the discussion of godlike beings and the creator. Henry responds by highlighting the vastness of the universe seen through the Hubble Space Telescope and the minute world revealed by electron microscopes. He speculates about the possibility of creating a new heaven on Earth at the nano level, given advancements in nanotechnology.
Henry discusses the concept of creator beings returning to Earth, possibly in July 1999, to establish a new holy city or land of peace. He explains that their definition of peace involves linking humanity with higher beings and that this process might continue until around 2012, aligning with the end of the Mayan calendar. Henry also touches on the idea of wormholes and the ancient beings known as “owls” who make night moves across the universe.
A caller from Central Virginia shares a vision she had about a preexisting state where souls wait to progress to a new life. She describes a spiritual mechanism, akin to the tumblers of a lock, where various factors must align perfectly for a soul to transition to Earth. Henry affirms her description, noting its alignment with his research.
Another caller from Dallas questions Henry’s reference to the number 22 in relation to human chromosomes, pointing out that humans have 23 chromosome pairs. Henry clarifies that he was referring to Zacharias Sitchin’s work, which addresses this topic in detail.
Henry discusses the return of creator beings and the construction of a new holy city, potentially in July 1999. He suggests that this event is part of a process leading up to 2012, aligning with the end of the Mayan calendar. Henry also talks about wormholes and the concept of beings called “owls” who make night moves across the universe.
A caller challenges Henry’s initial framing of the returning entity as the Christ of the Bible, pointing out discrepancies with biblical descriptions. Henry clarifies that he used the term as a reference point for listeners, acknowledging that his description does not align with the biblical Christ. He explains that his approach is to introduce complex ideas in a way that is accessible to the audience, even if it might initially seem misleading.
Another caller inquires about the origins of Henry’s ideas on the reincarnation of souls and the Tree of Life. Henry cites sources such as the Enuma Elish, the Egyptian Book of the Dead, and the works of Zecharia Sitchin. He also discusses the suppression of feminine aspects in religion by patriarchal systems, using the Cathars as an example of a group persecuted for their beliefs.
Art Bell asks Henry to recommend a starting book for listeners new to his work. Henry suggests “One Foot in Atlantis” as a good introductory book, offering various perspectives on the topics he discusses.
In the concluding segment Art Bell reflects on the thought-provoking conversation with William Henry. He expresses appreciation for the intriguing and complex ideas presented during the show, acknowledging that while he may not agree with everything Henry said, he understands the concepts discussed.
Henry’s appearance on the show provided listeners with a deep dive into various speculative theories, ancient myths, and modern interpretations. His discussion covered topics such as the return of creator beings, the construction of a new holy city, and the potential for significant changes in human consciousness and society.
Art Bell’s closing remarks highlight the show’s commitment to exploring diverse and often unconventional ideas, providing a platform for guests to share their research and perspectives, regardless of how esoteric or controversial they may be. This approach fosters an environment of open-minded inquiry and discussion, encouraging listeners to think critically and form their own opinions.
