May 18, 1999: The Brain - Neil Slade | Pole Shift & Earth Changes - Stewart Best
The program shifts to author and former corporate jet pilot Stewart Best, who presents his case that Earth is approaching a catastrophic pole shift. Best describes the mechanics of such an event, where the planet's surface moves rapidly while the atmosphere lags behind, generating winds of 800 miles per hour or more and drawing super-cold upper atmosphere air to the surface. He points to escalating tornado violence, magnetic pole fluctuations, disrupted bird migration patterns, and the earthquake swarm at Mammoth Lakes as warning signs.
Best ties these geological predictions to biblical prophecy, describing a timeline that converges with predictions from Nostradamus, Hopi elders, and modern remote viewers. He warns that the NATO campaign in Yugoslavia is systematically pushing Russia, China, and Islamic nations into the alliance foretold in scripture as a precursor to global conflict.
Key Moments
Mike the Headless Chicken proves the brain stem: Slade uses the documented case of Mike the Headless Chicken - who lived for years with only the brain stem intact - to argue that most chicken behavior is run by the reptilian brain stem, not the cortex.
The 'amygdala tickler' technique: Slade gives a hands-on demonstration: imagine a feather tickling the front of each amygdala, the walnut-shaped lobes one inch inside each temple, to click the switch forward toward the frontal lobes - the 'American tickler.'
Building new neuroconnections through practice: Slade claims that repeated forward-clicking of the amygdala physically builds new neural connections into and throughout the frontal lobes over time.
Listener compasses deviating up to 15 degrees: Art reports recurring listener emails describing compasses suddenly deviating 8–15 degrees west and snapping back; Best frames this as a magnetic precursor to a full pole shift, with a coronal mass ejection during a solar maximum potentially flipping the field.
Pole shift and a 'mini nova' sun: Best argues scripture and observed novas of other suns suggest our sun could itself flare to seven times its light at the time of the pole shift - a mini nova - as scientists watch other stars enter similar conditions.
