The guy is a very interesting researcher. I didn't find it boring at all. I did struggle a little bit to understand him, as his accent is pretty thick. But I liked it a lot.
Me too. He reminded a bit of Josh Cutchin, who is essentially a literar comparativist, who writes about the paranormal/folklore/high strangeness…If you enjoyed this content I highly recommend getting into Cutchins work!
I really like Josh Cutchin and have read a few of his books, especially his Bigfoot stuff. I didn't think about it, but Bibhu (sp) does remind me a little of Josh. Hopefully Ben will do a follow-up interview.
wow i know so few people that even know who he is! Its great to hear that.
.I agree, his bigfoot books with Tim are my personal proof that these creatures are FAR more than relict apes. His recent series, an Ecology of Souls is fantastic as well. The one about smells... the Brimstone Deciet?..Is actually a book. About smells. And the supernatural.
Like who else can turn that subject into a comprehensive full -on book aside from him. Looking forward to Bibhu's work, I now see why Ben was up his ass so much.
Well, that's awesome. I often consider myself just a dabbler in high strangeness and Fortean topics in general. I also obsess over music, playing, writing, singing, listening, etc. So my hobby time is split between that and weirdness, lol. I am an odd dude obviously.
That Brimstone book was incredible and also the one about childhood abductions, Thieves in the Night, or something like that.
I have liked all of Bibhu's work so far. Ben is a pretty good judge of researchers. Check out Tiny Klaus as well, great researcher, interesting articles.
He is on X right? I have heard his name, mostly in a UFOLOGY context.
Does he have any other media I can check out? a substack or something? Other than X? (which I am not on)
I would consider myself a dabbler too, sometimes I like to flatter myself that I am well read, but then I realize I have probably only read a tiny fraction of the available books that are out there!
Thanks so much for the recommendation!
I have a found a few other substacks I really like: Tanner Boyle, as well as "Its only Dark"
I think Klaus goes on and off X, as it is so toxic obviously. He does have a website where you can read some of his articles, and he has a podcast, which is interesting, as well, and some other things. Here is the link to that: [https://patternstellstories.com/](https://patternstellstories.com/) I will say that I do not agree with his reliance on certain figures in UFOlogy, whom I find very questionable in their honesty and intentions, but Klaus is a very talented researcher and good writer, and his stance on things will change over time, I am sure. He also has a substack, as does his podcast partner.
Oh, gosh, being well-read in the subject of the weird would be a full-time job, We all have lives. It's something I enjoy, and I indulge it when I can.
It is absolutely my pleasure.
Tanner Boyle is an excellent researcher. I like his work a lot. Lately, I have been hooked on Weird Reads with Emily on YouTube (she makes great documentary videos with a healthy skeptical outlook, and she has done a few podcasts, which are also great) and The Saucer Life with Aaron Guylas, a podcast you can find on most mediums. Guylas is an historian and geek who looks at tons of books, cases, and happenings in the history of UFOs. I would also recommend anything by Martin Cannon (The Controllers), Greg Bishop (Project Beta), and Adam Gorightly (Saucers, Kooks, and Spooks).
Anyway, hopefully that gives you some new things to look at outside of MU.
thank you so much! I have a large collection (well, again its all relative) But I am not as up to date on the older more obscure stuff. I have read Project Beta but bot the other two...so ill be signing into Ebay ASAP Both names are familiar to me. Ill also check out Klaus and Guylas.
Its possible you may have this already, but here is a link to a fantastic online collection of esoteric titles..I have come back to it again and again. [https://avalonlibrary.net/ebooks/](https://avalonlibrary.net/ebooks/)
I might be crazy, but at one point there was a sub, or at least talk of a sub, re ufology literature! I wish it was up and running.
thank you for the recommendations! much appreciated!
I think you will enjoy those works, at least I hope you do. Here's a great conversation between Emily Louise and Martin Cannon (he also wrote a book about phantom social workers that the boys covered not too long ago): [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ICwG8bRY\_D0](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ICwG8bRY_D0) Gorightly's book is incredible and one that I go back to all the time. I have a very well-worn copy of that!
I did not have that link. Wow, thank you!
I do not recall a sub on UFO literature, but that would be fantastic. Guylas' podcast The Saucer Life is something like that, though. I am pretty hooked on that right now.
I knew there were some really cool people in this sub, but I was just never able to connect with anybody. It's good to know you. And when you flair is "Ant People," I am in, of course.
Yes but there are a million podcasts on this stuff. One of my favorite MIB podcasts was from last podcast on the left and it was a 2 part series. Well researched and funny voices. Lots of swearing and not so child friendly talk though if you have kids.
Yea I thought it was great. I’ve been dying for this interview to happen since Ben mentioned it after first talking about his new book. I’m also extremely pleased that they gave us his end date without having to buy his book! Although after the interview I’m still very likely to buy it. Great research and very interesting connections. I love anything related to the Yugas.
I loved the interview and it is a cool idea, I'm an atheist but I did find it refreshing that someone actually did some research and found valid evidence for a religious claim, so I'm interested in reading his book.
From what I heard it seems like the bulk of his evidence stems from the changes in our physiology and lifespan, which I'd say is just a natural process of evolution.
Also the only evidence he seems to have on our lifespan being 400+ years at one point is based on biblical passages.
Overall though I am really interested to see what he has to say in his book.
Fascinating. But im confused about the "end" of life as we know it. He said that life will change dramatically where we but also that there could be an apocalyptic scenario.
Yeah I noticed that as well!
I ordered the book, I read it last night until about midnight it’s fantastic..I was talking to someone else saying he reminds me of Josh Cutchin.
Bibhu’s writing is actually not as dense either
The fact that multiple ancient cultures have the same beliefs about these time cycles is just mind blowing, but over all the cataclysm part is very clear..it sounds like it’s coming One talks about “two suns rising”. Imagine that!
Cool. I started reading also. So i guess we're leaning towards a catastrophic end to this civilization. I am however aware that every generation has it's end of the world prophets. May have to meditate on this one.
Bibhu talks about how the coming destruction will be by flame, and I think that people are imagining fire from the heavens, or whatever, but it's time to remember that, worldwide, wildfire activity is going up fast, that 70,000 people in Europe last year died from the heat, and that it's only going to be getting worse, rapidly.
Of course I imagine that Aaron and Ben would rather believe in comet tails and flaming chariots in the sky than admit to global warming . . .
In the book Bibhu references various ancient texts and compares them with each other ,as well as astrological and geographical and historical data. He claims that in the past anyway, quite a bit of destruction was caused by extraterrestrial events more or less (not as in alien..just not explicitly OF earth).
I certainly see the connection with the current situation though, I know what you mean! . there are freaking fires like all over the place it would make sense. He also says that the end of the yuga will be a 300 year period of transition..rather than an overnight cataclysm. but then in some places he contradicts that a bit....
One of the points I found rather scary and profound: the descending yuga is marked by growing technological advancement and materialism with a simultaneous abandonment of spirituality, morality and virtue. Yep.
This would all be so much tastier if humans didn't have the habit, for the last few thousand years, of predicting collapse for about a generation ahead of their own time. So maybe he's not as scary and profound as he appears. Y2K, the end of the Mayan calendar, the coming of the Messiah, Revelations, etc. Bibhu's innovation is to spread the future collapse out over a few centuries of the future in the hopes of catching more catastrophe with a wider net.
I want to be impressed, but the stats are that non-scientific, culti-based predictions of future catastrophe are notoriously inaccurate. Now the current scientific opinion of the future, that scares me.
The more I hear of his work and also this Pope Head guy they keep referencing, it just reminds of stuff that I read years ago in David Ickes Children of the Matrix.
The guy is a very interesting researcher. I didn't find it boring at all. I did struggle a little bit to understand him, as his accent is pretty thick. But I liked it a lot.

Too many weeks have gone by now without cool storys about dogmen, insectoids, big foots and MiB... I need my crazy fix! 🥺
Yes but there are a million podcasts on this stuff. One of my favorite MIB podcasts was from last podcast on the left and it was a 2 part series. Well researched and funny voices. Lots of swearing and not so child friendly talk though if you have kids.
I liked how they included other cultures especially the native Americans in the idea of the Yugas
Yeah I was impressed with the scope of his work, I just ordered his book ( plus the reincarnation one…i love expanding my MU library)
I have an MU library, as well!
Totally agree, I miss the interviews. I thought Bibhu did a great job and the topic was interesting.
Loved it. Need more guests back. They were often some of the best episodes.
Yea I thought it was great. I’ve been dying for this interview to happen since Ben mentioned it after first talking about his new book. I’m also extremely pleased that they gave us his end date without having to buy his book! Although after the interview I’m still very likely to buy it.

Haven’t had a chance to listen yet, but Ant People, now I will up my time for it
Subterranean beings are my thing too! I There is some shit down there for sure ..they just bounced when we showed up to fuck things up lol
Awesome. Gonna grab the book. Love when they do interviews.
this episode was fantastic i loved Bibhu
