In the first half, journalist and author Brian T. Brown delved into the first nuclear explosion tests, the end of WWII, the Cold War period, and current atomic dangers. There was greater nuclear fallout than expected following the 1945 Trinity Test, including actors who filmed in New Mexico, many of whom later suffered from cancer, but the Pentagon played a role in suppressing news of the fallout, he reported. As the conversation shifted to the bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki, Brown clarified misconceptions about the necessity of these actions. By August, when the bombs dropped, the Japanese military had already been essentially defeated, he explained, countering the narrative that the nuclear attack was actually saving lives, as supposedly a land invasion would have resulted in a million casualties.
Brown pointed out that while approximately 50,000 to 60,000 individuals died instantly from the blasts in Japan, the long-term effects of radiation exposure led to a much higher death toll that was deliberately obscured. "This is the first big cover-up of the Cold War," he remarked. He highlighted the tragic irony of the situation: "Had the world had a fuller picture right away," they might have understood "that these were weapons that could never be used for any number of reasons, particularly if they were going to proliferate." He explained how misinformation and secrecy fueled distrust, particularly between the US and the Soviet Union, leading to an accelerated arms race.
He touched on the devastating health effects of radiation, stating, "Your body is kind of getting eaten out from the inside," with cancer being a primary consequence. The discussion also ventured into the modern implications of nuclear weapons, warning that today's thermonuclear arsenals are "1000 times more powerful than Hiroshima and Nagasaki." Concluding, he urged listeners to remember that there are still nine nuclear nations, and with the expiration of the START treaty looming, the need for dialogue is more critical than ever.

In the latter half, medical medium and spiritual teacher Kimberly Meredith spoke about her metaphysical experiences and healing techniques. She described how her abilities began to manifest six months after her near-death experience in 2013, stating, "I started hearing messages... I often get messages in my left ear." Meredith explained her unique communication method, which includes blinking as a form of channeling messages from guides and the spirit world. The title of her book, "Awakening to the Fifth Dimension," reflects her belief in higher frequencies where healing can occur.
She shared remarkable stories of healing, including a woman whose thyroid tumor disappeared after she laid hands on her, leading to the proclamation, "We're in the fifth dimension. Praise God!" Highlighting her experiences with scientific validation, she said, "I was able to alter the EEG of a patient," referring to her time under the observation of Dr. Norman C. Shealy, who described her energy as a sort of "quantum entanglement" coming out of her hands.
Additionally, Meredith introduced the concept of "soul frequency readings," which she claims connect individuals to their unique frequency codes, guiding them through life's challenges. "Your health is a frequency. Everything is vibrating on a code and a frequency," she stated, emphasizing that understanding these frequencies can help people align with their true paths. During the last hour, she gave readings for callers.
