David Jacobs Walking Among Us

Halloween Weekend. My conversations with the oddly shaped minds of strange beliefs based on facts continues. Now that water has been found on Mars. Do you believe aliens are among us? From the iHeart Radio Studio I'm Unplugged and Totally Uncut with one of the worlds leading experts. David Jacobs. “Walking Among Us is a chronicle of human experience that contradicts every current theory about the universe that we think we live in. Jacobs’ human observers have experienced a concealed reality that is literally next door to some of us, and that he believes is about to interact, secretly and insidiously, with the rest of us. Walking Among Us explains why extraterrestrial UFOs are here, who is aboard them, and what they are doing. To put it mildly, the evidence from the people that Jacobs has interviewed shows that the extraterrestrials are up to no good. You will find Walking Among Us hard to put down. If enough of us read and pay attention to the evidence in this book, we might be able to avoid the disaster that its evidence portends.” —Don C. Donderi, PhD, associate professor (retired) of psychology, McGill University, Montreal, author of UFOs, ETs, and Alien Abductions “David Jacobs has written an extremely important book about UFO abductees and the meaning of their abductions.” —Ron Westrum, PhD, emeritus professor of sociology, Eastern Michigan University In his 1998 book, The Threat, Jacobs uncovered disconcerting reports about aliens’ plans for the future of Earth. He reported that a “change” is coming; a future when very humanlike hybrids would intermingle with humans in everyday life. “Soon we will all be together,” the aliens said. “Soon everyone will be happy and everyone will know his place.” This book examines a disturbing phenomenon that Jacobs began noticing in 2003. The alien integration action plan has kicked into high gear. The incidents of alien abductions have accelerated as have occurrences of alien involvement in everyday human life. A silent and insidious invasion has begun. Alien hybrids have moved into your neighborhood and into your workplace. They have been trained by human abductees to “pass,” to blend in to society, to appear as normal as your next door neighbor. This book illustrates in detail the process of alien integration into society and the strategy and support structure that has been developed to make this happen seamlessly. While he is not certain why they are doing it, the final chapter of the book will provide some chilling possible answers as to why they are here and what they want to accomplish. Jacobs is a careful researcher who has investigated more than 1150 abduction events experienced by more than 150 abductees. This book focuses on the experiences of thirteen abductees. ARTICLE ON DAVID JACOBS FROM PHILLY.COM THE WAY David M. Jacobs sees it, aliens from outer space have been kidnapping humans for aeons and sexually molesting them to create human-alien hybrids that walk among us today undetected and will soon take over Earth. He knows that sounds crazy. But he long ago quit caring what people think of him. As director of the International Center for Abduction Research, Jacobs, 71, has made it his life's mission to investigate claims of extraterrestrial abduction. "What I'm doing will either be an interesting but nonessential footnote to popular culture or the most important thing that's ever happened to humankind. I see it as the latter," said Jacobs, who's now working on his fifth book. While most people might write off UFO believers as deluded, conspiracy-theorist kooks, Jacobs isn't your typical believer. He was a tenured professor at Temple University, where he taught American history for 36 years before retiring in 2011. He's a married father of two who lives in a picturesque, 134-year-old Victorian just over the Philadelphia line, in Wyndmoor. He makes his case with well-reasoned, articulate explanations and applies a scholarly approach to his research, which he has shared in four books - printed by well-known and academic publishers. Jacobs has interviewed about 150 people who say they've been abducted by aliens, the forgotten details of their cosmic kidnappings resurfacing in relaxation sessions the self-taught hypnotist does in his home. Citing public polls, he estimates that aliens have abducted more than a million Americans. He readily admits that the evidence of extraterrestrial life and body-snatching is "weak," muddied by an abundance of blurry photos and confabulation (phony or misinterpreted "memories"). Yet he insists evidence exists: * Abductees independently report similar experiences and recall common details, such as the humanlike or insectlike appearance of aliens and their mission to breed. Many abductees told Jacobs that aliens stared deeply into their eyes, sometimes touching foreheads, in a neurological scan that enabled them to harvest human sperm and eggs. Women frequently claimed that aliens impregnated them, removed the alien-human hybrid fetuses from their wombs and forced the women to nurse the hybrid babies. * People are physically absent during the time they say they were abducted, Jacobs said. Some families even have reported loved ones missing or seen them vanish, he added. * Abductees sometimes are taken in groups; strangers who never met on Earth recall each other from their deep-space experiences, Jacobs said. * People return with unusual marks, injuries or scars - including scar tissue that formed overnight, "a biological impossibility that I have seen myself," he said. His inconvenient truth For years, Jacobs shunned speaking locally about alien abductions. "I knew that it was embarrassing to the university," he said, remembering one Temple donor who threatened to end his charity unless Jacobs quit teaching his UFO class, the only one like it in the country. But he didn't quit. Still, his beliefs carried a cost: Tenured in 1981, he said he was twice rejected for promotion and never became a full professor at Temple. "I was not rewarded for my views," Jacobs said. "But you do not often find yourself in the middle of a phenomenon that allows you to make a contribution to something that could be of unsurpassing importance in human history." Jacobs is among a small but surprising array of well-known folks who reportedly believe in extraterrestrial life, including former U.S. presidents Jimmy Carter and Ronald Reagan, former astronauts Edgar Mitchell and Gordon Cooper, theoretical physicist Stephen Hawking and celebrities Mick Jagger, Dan Aykroyd, Muhammad Ali and William Shatner. On the skeptical side, critics aren't swayed by the big names. Even smart people can believe weird things, said Michael Shermer, founder and editor of Skeptic magazine and a Scientific American columnist. Shermer interviewed Jacobs for his weekly NPR show, shortly after Jacobs' 1999 book, The Threat, was published. Shermer said Jacobs "spoke like an academic" but that his beliefs are rooted in his "circular, impenetrable argument" that sneaky aliens have lulled skeptics into disbelief and complacency. William Hartmann, a senior scientist at the Arizona-based Planetary Science Institute, described Jacobs' methods as concerning: "Dr. Jacobs' website describes 'alien abduction' reports extracted under hypnosis, but my sense is that most of the scientific community gives little credence to reports coming from hypnosis," Hartmann said. Hartmann said he and other scientists examined "photo evidence" of UFOs as members of the U.S. Air Force's "Condon Committee" in the late 1960s. "I went in hoping to find real evidence of some extraordinary phenomena, but I came out feeling we had no convincing evidence we could take back to Congress or the USAF or public, and that the sociology of the UFO phenomenon was much more interesting than any actual physical evidence like the alleged photos," he said. The SETI Institute is a private, nonprofit science group based in California that searches for signs of extraterrestrial life. But a spokesman declined to comment on Jacobs or the possibility of aliens on Earth, saying that SETI hunts for signs of alien life in deep space, not here. Jacobs himself says he has never seen a UFO nor been abducted by aliens. "I've never been to Japan either, but that doesn't mean Japan doesn't exist," he said. He remains undaunted by skeptics. He has been a believer since he first began researching extraterrestrial life in 1970. As a college student, he read about aliens and UFOs "for R&R" - but became entranced when he thought: "This could be real," he said. At the University of Wisconsin-Madison, he switched his doctoral dissertation from the portrayal of women in pre-1915 films to the UFO controversy in America. He began focusing on alien abductions in the 1980s and vows to continue that research even as it terrifies him more each day. "I used to think it was the most amazing, wowee, gee-whiz thing," Jacobs said. "But the more I learn about it, the more I fear it, the more I don't want to have anything to do with it." That's because he suspects that aliens are intent upon planetary domination, as humans remain mired in ignorance and denial. "This is a clandestine phenomenon," Jacobs said. "There is one thing that I can say for sure: They don't want us to know what they're doing - because what they're doing benefits them and not us." ABOUT DAVID JACOBS David M. Jacobs is an American historian and recently retired associate professor of history at Temple University specializing in 20th-century American history and culture. Jacobs is also well known in the field of UFOlogy for his research and authoring of books on the subject of alien abductions.

Travis Barker Can I Say

Journey's that move forward. No matter what you've been put through in the past. The next step is always going to be another connection. From the iHeart Radio Studio I'm Unplugged and Totally Uncut with Blink 182's Travis Barker. Travis Barker’s soul-baring memoir CAN I SAY: Living Large, Cheating Death, and Drums, Drums, Drums (William Morrow; On Sale: 10/20/15) chronicles the highlights and lowlights of the renowned drummer’s art and his life, including the harrowing plane crash that nearly killed him and his traumatic road to recovery—a fascinating never-before-told-in-full story of personal reinvention grounded in musical salvation and fatherhood. After breaking out as the acclaimed drummer of the multiplatinum punk band Blink-182, everything changed for Travis Barker. But the dark side of rock stardom took its toll: his marriage, chronicled for an MTV reality show, fell apart. Constant touring concealed a serious drug addiction. A reckoning did not truly come until he was forced to face mortality: His life nearly ended in a horrifying plane crash, and then his close friend, collaborator, and fellow crash survivor DJ AM died of an overdose. In this blunt, driving memoir, Barker ruminates on rock stardom, fatherhood, death, loss, and redemption, sharing stories shaped by decades’ worth of hard-earned insights. His pulsating memoir is as energetic as his acclaimed beats. It brings to a close the first chapters of a well-lived life, inspiring readers to follow the rhythms of their own hearts and find meaning in their lives. ABOUT TRAVIS BARKER Described by Rolling Stone as “punk’s first superstar drummer,” TRAVIS BARKER is a musician, producer, and entrepreneur who rose to fame as the drummer for the influential punk-rock band Blink-182. With Blink-182, he has sold over thirty million albums. When the group reunited in 2009 after a six-year hiatus, over a million fans bought tickets. Barker has also performed as a frequent collaborator with artists including LL Cool J, Eminem, Lil Wayne, Slash, Mary J. Blige, Tom Morello, and Cypress Hill, establishing himself as one of the most prolific rock drummers in the world. Also an entrepreneur, Barker founded clothing company Famous Stars and Straps in 1999 and LaSalle Records in 2004. He lives in California and is currently working on his second solo album.

Linda Godfrey American Monsters

I love Halloween. The vampires and monster writers come out of hiding. Who better to know about American Monsters than Linda Godfrey. We are Unplugged and Totally Uncut on iHeart Radio. From pre-Columbian legends to modern-day eyewitness accounts, this comprehensive guide covers the history, sightings and lore surrounding the most mysterious monsters in America—including Bigfoot, the Jersey Devil, and more. Bigfoot, the chupacabra, and thunderbirds aren’t just figments of our overactive imaginations—according to thousands of eyewitnesses, they exist, in every corner of the United States. Throughout America’s history, shocked onlookers have seen unbelievable creatures of every stripe—from sea serpents to apelike beings, giant bats to monkeymen—in every region. Author, investigator, and creature expert Linda S. Godfrey brings the same fearless reporting she lent to Real Wolfmen to this essential guide, using historical record, present-day news reports, and eyewitness interviews to examine this hidden menagerie of America’s homegrown beasts. LINDA’S “MONSTER” BLOG FROM THE HUFFINGTON POST There's no shame in being afraid of monsters. Who wouldn't quail at the thought of a sudden tete-a-tete with Bigfoot or a brush from the wing of a giant, flying reptile? Most people, though, believe these mysterious creatures exist only in nightmares or horror movies--until they spy a nine-foot tall, shaggy beast sprinting through their own yard or must swerve to avoid hitting a bat-winged, human-sized thing taking dead aim at their windshield. Unlikely as it may sound, a surprising number of credible, sober citizens of all ages and from every walk of life say they have encountered unknown creatures in parks, fields, lakes, highways and, yes, urban areas all over the Americas. As a former newspaper writer, I've been collecting and investigating such reports ever since my 1992 story "The Beast of Bray Road" about sightings of a werewolf-like creature in southeastern Wisconsin. I believed then that the witnesses were sincere, and I still believe the great majority of those who have contacted me since are doing their best to describe the indescribable. Some beasts seem more monstrous than others -- I'd sooner meet a merman than a Chupacabras -- but all exhibit fearsome features. I've called out seven apex terrifiers from American Monsters (Tarcher, $16.95): Batsquatch With furry, humanoid bodies, glowing red eyes and bat-wings wider than a pickup truck, they seem to enjoy swooping at passing vehicles and pedestrians. Reports are most numerous in the northwestern US, but Batsquatch has been spied in rural Wisconsin, West Virginia, Pennsylvania and even downtown Chicago. Some researchers believe it's an unknown, giant bat species, others have suggested its fly-bys are out-of-time appearances of a Sumerian demon-god named Pazuzu. The Flathead Lake Monster One of the busiest lake monsters in America, the 20-30 foot long creature that many say inhabits this 188-square mile Montana lake has made at least 102 appearances between 1899 and 2013. With a large, horse-like head and a row of undulating humps leaving a wake behind it, the giant eel-like creature has brushed up against swimmers and lurked near stranded boats. Two have been spotted together, so perhaps they are breeding! Goatman Some say they're heinous genetic experiments gone wrong, others believe they're forest spirits similar to ancient Greek satyrs or the old nature god, Pan. The horns, hooves and upright posture, however, are likely to conjure the word "devil" in the minds of contemporary witnesses. Many urban legends claim that the goatmen guard old roadways and even snack on unwary travelers (goats, after all, are said to eat anything). Although they're sighted in all parts of the country, one of the most famous of these Billy Goat Gruff legends comes from St. George's County, Maryland, where let's just say it's unforgivably unkind to stray pets. Ear-Eater of Jasper County Sometimes, the scariest creatures are the ones you don't see. An unseen monster terrorized citizens of Jasper County, Mississippi during a few tense weeks in 1977 as it preyed on their pork population. Whatever it was, it had jaws formidable enough to bite the head off a 50-pound hog. It also tried to decapitate a 300-pound sow but only managed to tear its ears away. The thing still effectively raided nine different farms. It left large canine tracks and was never caught, although one of a pack of smaller, feral dogs that accompanied or trailed it was shot by a sheriff's deputy. Where the ear eater went next is unknown. Wampus Cat Also dubbed the Doberman-lynx or dog-cat by various witnesses, this creature resembles a huge, unholy hybrid of canine and feline characteristics. People have reported being stalked by these creatures in the canyons around Los Angeles and in some states in southeastern U.S. A supporting Native American legend of a woman cursed for spying on a men's council meeting hints at mythic origins of these creatures. The woman was doomed to roam in the shape of a human-like, great cat and, according to the legends, still haunts many southern forests. Sasquatch Perhaps the best known of the world's "unknown" creatures, many eyewitnesses are loathe to call them monsters since they appear so human-like and seem to confine most of their aggression to throwing rocks and snapping branches. But their sheer size (often eight feet tall and weighing 500 pounds or more), evident intelligence and amazing ability to elude capture or camera can scare the bejabbers out of those who somehow provoke the creature's aggressive side. In a human vs Sasquatch cage fight, there's little question as to who would come out on top. Gator Man Maybe it's just our instinctive mammalian response to things with scales and gaping jaws, but fear of reptiles is a common human trait. Up the ante with a man-sized gator that stands upright and stealthily shadows the eyewitness (a la the croc that trailed Captain Hook in Peter Pan), and you have a beast that pushes all kinds of fear buttons, physical and psychological. Such a creature lurks in the St. John's River in eastern Florida, according to one eyewitness, who still wonders why he was "chosen." It's that eerie, inordinate interest the beasts show in humankind that I find most disturbing in these accounts. And although many people tell me that they're eager to spot a monster themselves, quite a few witnesses wish that they hadn't, and that they could unsee it. The creatures, in the meantime, seem content to leave us wondering whether they're some elusive part of the natural world or an Otherworldly puzzle that will never be solved. Scare on.

Being bitten by and turned into a vampire isn’t the glitz and glamor that Hollywood makes it out to be. In fact, one out of five newly turned vampires will succumb to a slew of easily avoidable and common pitfalls within their first few months as a nightwalker—tempting garlic-laced Italian food and silver jewelry are only a few of the things that will have to go. ABOUT “COUNT” DOMENICK DICCE When Domenick discovered you could get paid for pretending to be a Ghostbuster, a Jedi or superhero, he knew acting was the career for him. It was watching the outrageously hilarious characters on Saturday Night Live that helped him shape the type of actor he wanted to become. Always on the lookout for ways to satisfy his intense desire to act, he began writing short YouTube sketches. These videos would unlock his love of writing. In addition to writing scripts, he began to create novels and short stories. Once again, he found himself drawn toward the more comedic characters and stories. Basically, he’s an actor, writer and all-around creator of fun. This is his first book.
