Host:	George Noory
Guests:	R. Gary Patterson, James McCanney, Jon Rappoport

R. Gary Patterson (rgarypatterson.com(1)), the main guest on Monday, discussed what he considers to be an "urban legend," the oft repeated story that Paul McCartney died back in 1966 in a car accident. As chronicled in his book The Walrus Was Paul:(2) The Great Beatle Death Clues of 1969, Patterson believes the group may have deliberately planted enigmatic references in their music and album art, such as on the cover of Sgt. Pepper's.

Reacting to the controversial website Paul is Really Dead(3), which claims to show forensic evidence through before and after photographs, that McCartney was replaced by an imposter in 1966, Patterson sent the link to a Forensic Examiner. The Examiner replied via a written response, that such photo comparisons were not forensic evidence because you would need exact angles for accuracy.

Patterson also shared his interpretations of various musical clips and backwards masking excerpts from Beatles recordings that were played on the show. In the lyric "he got feet down below his knee," from the song Come Together for instance, he said this could be a reference to a person being buried a certain number of feet underground.

Blackout: Special Broadcast

Due to the major power failure on Thursday in the U.S. and Canada, George Noory presented two hours of early coverage last night, which was heard live on Streamlink(1), and in markets that carry the early feed. The audio archive of this material is posted under Show Clips (above). Here is a rundown of the four guests who appeared, each for a half-hour: Terrorism Expert Bazzel Baz (TerrorismSurvivalHandbook(2)) started the show and noted the proximity of timing of the blackout to the recent computer virus, which he said is believed to have originated in China. Physicist Jim McCanney (jmccanneyscience.com(3)) followed, and spoke of a "low rumbling sonic boom," that had been heard in the area at the time of the blackout. James Chiles (invitingdisaster.com),a technology writer, appeared next, suggesting one possible cause could have been a disgruntled employee who would have the skills to inflict this kind of damage. The two-hour special closed with author Steve Quayle (stevequayle.com) who said there were reports from intelligence chatter that the phrase "cutting the two currents" was heard before the blackout. 1. http://archive.coasttocoastam.com/streamlink/about.html 2. http://www.terrorismsurvivalhandbook.com/ 3. http://www.jmccanneyscience.com/
