The Whole Rabbit

Send us comments, suggestions and ideas here! In this week’s episode we go so far down the rabbit hole that we encounter the mutated denizens of a lost race descended from Atlantean giants because this week we’re exploring the science-fiction world of Richard Sharp Shaver who, of all things, claimed these stories were none other than historical fact! Published in Amazing Stories Magazine in the 1940s with the help of editor Robert Palmer the Shaver Mystery took the world by storm and laid the foundation for UFOlogy and conspiracy culture that endures today. In the first half of the show we discuss Richard Shaver’s theophany of the lusty swamp witch, Nydia and how he came to know firsthand the denizens of the underworld. We also take a look at the ancient space language, a galactic commons of sorts that Shaver introduced to us and begin exploring the colorful details as they are described in his first published story “I Remember Lemuria.” In the extended episode we go further down the Shaver Rabbit Hole (that sounds pornographic somehow) and get into the vast menagerie of human alien animal hybrids that our ancient alien overlords created in their laboratories and populate the many worlds in space. We discuss the radioactive influence of the sun, megalithic monuments that still exist today and the origin of the devilish Dero who control the human elite from their high-tech machines far below the Earth’s surface.

Send us comments, suggestions and ideas here! In this week’s episode we gather around the fire and discuss New Year traditions, numerology and prophecies written in the stars. In the free section of the show we review some of the stranger happenings of 2024 which may continue to develop into revelations in 2025, specifically in the domain of advanced propulsion, alien life and secret government technology. We also do a fun breakdown of numerology, how to calculate your life path number and what to expect during the Chinese New Year of the Wooden Snake. In the extended version of the show we let Heka Astra off the leash to explain at depth the various planetary and zodiacal alignments which promise to turn 2025 into a historic year to be remembered for the rest of our lives. Some big high-lights include spooky Pluto moving into Aquarius, jovial Jupiter dipping his toes into Cancer and what biblical sized shockwave is coming when Saturn and Neptune get busy at one degree of Aries. It gets pretty esoteric and astrology heavy in the second half but we make sure to pause and point out what it all means, some historical precedence for what it meant in the past and why we should all get a large bucket of popcorn ready because already the lights have begun to dim, thank you and enjoy the show... In this week’s episode we discuss:UAP Disclosure in 2024Solid State PlasmaPersonal Predictions for 2025The Number 9How to Calculate Your Life Path NumberNew Years Superstitions (black eyed peas and red underwear) Year of the Wooden SnakeIn the extended episode available at www.patreon.com/TheWholeRabbit we go further (especially into the year’s astrology) and discuss:Delays with Mars Retrograde in LeoSquaring A Vestal VirginTarget Practice with Mercury in SagittariusWounded CentaursNeptune Comes Home to PiscesUranus Goes BallasticPLUTO IN AQUARIUS!Biblical Revelation??A Summer to Remember Each host is responsible for writing and creating the content they present.
