Art Bell welcomes Robert Ghost Wolf, a Native American elder of Lakota and Iroquois heritage, for a sweeping discussion about environmental collapse and Native prophecy. The broadcast itself arrives amid severe weather, with lightning having struck Art''s studio and knocked out equipment the previous night. Ghost Wolf reports witnessing six-legged frogs and jackrabbits with multiple ears in the Arizona desert, signs he says confirm that genetic mutation has spread far beyond waterways.

The conversation covers the rapid deterioration of ecosystems worldwide, from millions of diseased fish off the North Carolina coast to migratory birds flying south months early and crops ripening ahead of schedule. Ghost Wolf connects these events to electromagnetic fluctuations in the Earth''s poles and the depletion of essential minerals in food and water. He warns that the human immune system is weakening as the very substances needed to carry information through the blood disappear from the environment.

Ghost Wolf explains the Ghost Dance, a spiritual ceremony he is organizing to reconnect humanity with ancestral consciousness before what Hopi elders describe as the end of the current dream. He outlines prophecies of major earth changes between 1998 and 2007, including three and a half days of darkness caused by a collapse of the energy holding physical reality together.

Key Moments

  1. Transcript

    Lightning strikes Art's studio: Art opens by reporting that his studio was actually struck by lightning, taking out equipment and explaining his absence the previous night, while the network's Oregon facility is simultaneously under violent thunderstorms - a production beat that frames the entire Earth Changes show with Robert Ghost Wolf.

  2. Transcript

    Six-legged frogs and four-eared jackrabbits in the desert: Ghost Wolf reports seeing six-legged frogs and three- and four-eared jackrabbits while traveling from Arizona up through Montana, alongside flocks of geese already flying south in late July, and ties the mutations to electromagnetic pole shifts and 50 years of post-WWII insecticide load.

  3. Transcript

    End of the dream - animals picking up human cannibalism: Ghost Wolf says elders are telling him we are in 'the final days of this dream,' that DNA mutations are the karma of buried toxins and frequency disruption, and most strikingly that animals can no longer relate to animal consciousness and are picking up human traits - fighting, viciousness, even cannibalism in the forest.

  4. Transcript

    Hopi prophecy - when the rabbits attack: Recalling a Hopi elder's warning that in the final days you'll go on a picnic and the rabbits will turn around and attack you, Ghost Wolf points to the recent Arizona report of children attacked by coyotes - animals that are normally a mile away from people - as the prophecy already manifesting.

  5. Transcript

    Liquefaction and a very bad winter coming: Ghost Wolf describes the coming shift as a liquefaction in which artificial structures - glass, steel beams, plastic, televisions - will melt and only natural construction (teepees, pyramids) will stand, then predicts a winter worse than the last one and widespread power-grid failures from electromagnetic fluctuation.
