Witchcraft & Spells/ Open Lines

Host: George Noory
Guests: Judika Illes, Open Lines

"Spell collector, independent scholar, writer, and teacher, Judika Illes has an encyclopedic knowledge of the sacred, as well as helpful mystics, saints, and sages from a large variety of religious traditions. In the first half of Friday’s show, she discussed the subject of witchcraft including its history, mythology, and folklore, as well as magic spells, rituals, potions, recipes, and traditions. Some of the traditions appear to be changing, as she has begun to see more men at witchcraft gatherings and told George that "you don’t have to be a woman to be a witch, you just have to be a human being." She even pointed out that the word "witch" is derived from a word that means "to bend reality." There is no need to be a witch to cast spells though, as Illes claimed that they are simply an extension of your will as well as a way to focus your desires and direct yourself towards your goals. She believes that spells utilize a natural energy that emanates from all natural things on the planet.

Illes was careful to point out that spells can have unintended consequences, such as in the old horror story of the "Monkey’s Paw." She also warned that anyone who wanted to cast spells to think their motivations through carefully, since conflicting ideas could become like "driving with the parking brake on" as one part of the mind may want something to occur, while another, possibly subconscious part might not so sure or may possess hidden motivations. Wishes and spells she said, are not like scientific formulas, because "sometimes they work better than we anticipate, and sometimes differently." Almost anything can be used as a prop, or way to increase effectiveness, such as candles, salt, or playing cards, but can also be as simple and direct as emojis on a smart phone. Responding to listener questions about specific spells for money or love, Iles suggested baths with honey or green plants such as basil or bay laves added to the water."

------------------------------------------------

"During call-ins, many expressed their shock and sadness over the death of activist, humanitarian, and perhaps one of the greatest heavyweight boxers in history, Muhammad Ali, who passed away on Friday at age 74. Keith called in to share a story of his 29-year survival with HIV. He also lost his sight in the intervening years, but expressed an infectious positivity and even used his professional broadcast voice to wish George a happy birthday and recite a unique Coast To Coast introduction.

Ziggy called in from Toronto to tell a very strange and eerie story about his wife who went to a hypnotherapist for help to stop smoking. The therapist told him that his wife was possessed by the spirit of her deceased father. He recorded much of the session on his phone. When they returned home, Ziggy said that his phone had apparently recorded the voice of his father-in-law even though his wife spoke in her own voice at the therapist’s office. George asked for a copy of the recording."

Very disturbing news item ...

HIV+ Hospital Worker Fentanyl Addict Swapped Needles with 6,000 Patients

"28-year-old Rocky Allen, a surgical technician who was accused of stealing syringes filled with the powerful painkiller fentanyl from hospitals for five years, is HIV-positive, federal officials announced Wednesday. He allegedly switched out the syringes with ones he would sneak into the hospitals and may have exposed thousands of patients to HIV in doing so. We look at the report on the Lip News with Jo Ankier and Margaret Howell."

Empire_File028/ Propaganda & Engineering Consent for Empire

Abby Martin with Mark Crispin Miller

"With thousands of advertisements seen by Americans everyday, and a corporate media that reinforces the needs of Empire, propaganda in the U.S. is more pervasive and effective than ever before.

The manipulation of public opinion through suggestion can be traced back to the father of modern propaganda, Edward Bernays, who discovered that preying on the subconscious mind was the best way to sell products people don't need, and wars people don't want.

To get a deeper understanding of how propaganda functions in today's society, Abby Martin interviews Dr. Mark Crispin Miller, professor of Media Studies at New York University."

On this date - June 6, 1933 the first Drive-In Theater opened in Camden, New Jersey ...

Below - Sundown Drive-In Aerial View, 1955


Hollingshead's Story

by Rick Cohen

"It is said his motive was to sell more auto products. After all, that is what Richard Hollingshead did for a living back in the 1930s. And, he theorized, the best way to do this was to establish a place where people could park their cars, enjoy a meal, and watch a movie outdoors.

He experimented by nailing a bed sheet between some trees, put a 1928 movie projector on the hood of his car, and placed a radio behind the screen for sound. He even positioned a number of automobiles with blocks under their front wheels to improve viewing.

There would be other experiments along the way, including the use of lawn sprinklers to simulate the effects of rain while watching a movie outdoors. Eventually, Hollingshead had the makings of his drive-in. In August of 1932 he applied for a patent.

Richard Hollingshead opened the world's first Drive-in Theatre in Camden, New Jersey on June 6, 1933. Its successful debut prompted others to follow. The second drive-in appeared less than one year later in Orefield, Pennsylvania. Shankweiler's Auto Park opened on April 15, 1934 and is the oldest continuously operated drive-in theatre in America. By 1942, there were almost one hundred drive-ins scattered across 27 states.
The Boom Years

It wasn't until after the Second World War, however, when drive-ins really spread across the country. Part of the reason was improved technology. RCA introduced in-car speakers, which replaced the old and inefficient bullhorns mounted on the drive-in screen. By 1948, there were an estimated 820 drive-ins.

With the baby boom of the late 1940s and early 1950s, young families began discovering the drive-ins. Many drive-ins added playgrounds and train rides to encourage family attendance. Just like the generation itself, drive-ins were also booming. Concession stands were a large part of the draw and success enjoyed by drive-in owners. Utilizing a cafeteria-style operation they could feed hundreds of kids and adults during the 10 minutes of intermission, which sometimes featured cartoons and a clock counting down the time to the beginning of the second feature.

The 1950s brought other innovations to drive-ins, like in-car heaters and mobile concession carts. However, their appeal was still driven by the casual and convenient alternative they offered to traditional indoor movie houses. You could put the kids in their pajamas and spend a cool summer evening at the drive-in, rather than heading for the city and a stuffy indoor theatre.

By 1958, there were approximately 4,063 drive-in theatres in the United States and Canada. But their impressive growth and success was about to change direction, and the decline would last for three decades.
Dark Skies for Drive-ins

Some industry leaders will tell you the biggest reason for this decline was the introduction of daylight savings time. Many parents were reluctant to take their families to the drive-in for showings starting as late as ten o'clock at night. And, with the baby boom era coming to an end, there were simply fewer families with children to bring. Many drive-in operators switched to more adult or occult films. Some also tried to improve their bottom line with flea markets or church services during the daytime on the weekends.

The 1970s and 1980s brought fierce competition with the infiltration of cable TV and VCRs into many homes. To make matters worse, many new indoor movie theatres were being built in the suburbs, with multiplexes offering more screens and more movies. Now, people could watch a film in air-conditioned theatres and grab a bite to eat at the mall instead of the drive-in snackbar.

In the face of it all, many drive-ins decided they were better off selling their land to commercial developers, who built an endless number of bland shopping centers over the grass lots of former drive-ins. Land that wasn't sold frequently stood idle, overgrown with weeds or even trees, the once mighty screen tower now a lonely monument to the glory days when drive-ins were king. By 1990, only about 910 drive-ins remained open in the entire United States.
Drive-ins make a comeback

Fortunately, the story doesn't end there. In more recent years, a number of once-closed drive-ins have re-opened and several new ones have been built from the ground up. Operators who survived the difficult years are re-investing in multiple screens and modern FM radio sound. Playgrounds, miniature golf, and other forms of family entertainment have reappeared in many.

It seems a whole new generation has discovered drive-in movie theatres. Richard Hollingshead, the man who started it all, would be proud that his invention has withstood the challenges of time and cultural change, and still exists today providing affordable family entertainment for communities across America to enjoy."

A resurgence for the ‘Mother Road’: revitalizing Route 66

"U.S. Route 66, running 2,400 miles from Chicago to Santa Monica, was once one of the most-traveled highways in the nation; John Steinbeck referred to it as the “Mother Road.” But the rise of the Interstate Highway System led to a loss of traffic, devastating communities that relied on the route’s travelers. Now, Route 66 is making a comeback, thanks to its storied past. Jeffrey Brown reports."

Homeland Security Revelations/ Bio-Communication

Host: George Noory
Guests: Philip Haney, Art Moore, Gerald Epling

"Philip Haney studied Arabic culture and language while working as a scientist in the Middle East before becoming a founding member of the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) in 2002. He joined WND editor Art Moore to discuss how after Haney's sterling career at DHS, he was disciplined for investigating potential terrorists and terror-linked Muslims and mosques -- including information that might have prevented the Boston Marathon bombing, and later the San Bernadino massacre. Haney's first sign of conflict with the DHS occurred in 2006, when he wrote an article for the web called Green Tide Rising related to Palestinian voters endorsing Hamas. The DHS accused him of breaching protocol, and committing an ethical violation, though he was eventually exonerated.

Moore detailed how Haney was ordered by the DHS to alter or modify information because it was not politically correct. The problem with Saudi Arabia in relation to terrorism, said Haney, is that the country supports Islamic schools called madrasas in Pakistan, India, and Bangladesh. They send Saudi males there to be educated in Koranic theology and other Islamic texts, and these schools often function as a breeding ground for terrorist organizations, he cited. Further, we need to look closer at the fact that Islam teaches Sharia law, which is incompatible with the US constitution, Haney emphasized."

-------------------------

"In the latter half, doctor of cognition and neuroscience Gerald Epling talked about the powers of the mind, as well as research on phenomenal bio-communication in which he's replicated and extended the work of Cleve Backster, measuring and recording the responses of one life form to another. "What I've learned about the brain...helps a lot of other people understand why they have trouble with stress or anxiety," Epling commented. The mind can change the chemicals that the brain's hypothalamus produces-- "if you get stressed, adrenaline kicks in...the hypothalamus senses this and sends a signal to the pituitary gland...let's release some soothing cortisol so you feel better," he detailed, adding that going for a walk for 20 minutes can also de-stress and send endorphins into the body.

"It turns out a lot of the brain is doing some activity when we're not thinking about it," such as memory which is consolidated over a certain period of time, he noted. Epling reported that he was able to replicate Backster's experiments demonstrating that plants feel pain, as well as have reactions to certain human thoughts and actions."
