Psychic Jill M. Jackson joined guest host Rich Berra (email) for a discussion on starseeds, souls that originate from other planets or star systems and incarnate on Earth to aid humanity. She said many feel an unusual connection to the stars from childhood and may see themselves as different from others or find human behavior confusing. Jackson identified herself as a starseed, citing her lifelong tendency to question conventional beliefs, her ability to perceive what she calls other worlds, and a UFO sighting at age nine. She said most starseeds have some awareness of their identity. However, for some, that recognition or memories of other incarnations emerge later, sometimes following a major life catalyst or near-death experience.
Jackson placed particular emphasis on new generations of starseed children, including what she called golden ray, diamond ray, and solar ray children. She said she first received information about the golden ray children during a spiritual experience in 2014 and believes they differ from earlier generations of starseeds. According to Jackson, these children are arriving in increasing numbers at an important point for humanity and carry an energy or frequency that can encourage other people to awaken to their own purpose and inner knowing. She connected their emergence with what she sees as humanity's choice between continuing patterns of division, fear, and conflict or moving toward a higher consciousness characterized by unity, diversity, unconditional love, and non-duality.
Jackson believes these newer starseed children may play a role in humanity's relationship with technology and AI, saying that golden ray starseeds carry a frequency that could help steer AI toward beneficial uses, such as medical breakthroughs, rather than manipulation or control. At the same time, she stressed that people should not surrender their sovereignty, creativity, or what she calls their divinity to AI. She also said golden ray, diamond ray, and solar ray children often struggle within conventional education because of their sensitivity and high-energy nature. In her view, they benefit from alternative approaches, greater access to nature, stillness, and opportunities to learn how to manage their energy rather than relying solely on traditional educational structures.

Author Frank Joseph Hoff discussed his belief that Atlantis was a real, highly advanced civilization located in what is now Indonesia and surrounding Southeast Asia, drawing heavily on Professor Arysio Nunes dos Santos's research. Hoff said conventional searches have focused on the wrong locations and argued that Atlantis could not have existed in colder regions such as Antarctica during the Pleistocene. He described Atlantis as a prosperous civilization that flourished before its destruction roughly 11,600 years ago and connected it to an earlier civilization he called Lemuria. According to Hoff, agriculture and other developments allowed the Atlantean civilization to advance in science, philosophy, religion, navigation, metallurgy, astronomy, medicine, and numerous other fields.
Hoff argued that linguistic, geographic, and geological clues point to Indonesia as the location of Atlantis. He said the name "Atlantis" can be decoded through ancient Greek, Sanskrit, and Dravidian and interpreted as referring to sunken land on the opposite side of the world from Europe. He further contended that the original Pillars of Hercules were between Bali and Lombok rather than at the Strait of Gibraltar. Hoff estimated Atlantis was comparable in size to the continental United States, Alaska, and Hawaii combined, with more than 20 million inhabitants. He said the civilization was a major maritime and trading power whose survivors eventually migrated to places including India, Peru, and Ecuador, spreading Atlantean knowledge and influencing later civilizations.
Hoff attributed Atlantis' destruction to a combination of volcanic catastrophe, rising seas, and warfare. He said that an eruption of Krakatoa around 11,600 years ago generated a massive tsunami and triggered glacial melting and rising sea levels, rather than Atlantis simply sinking beneath the ocean. Hoff also advanced the more extraordinary claim that rival groups within Atlantis possessed nuclear technology and detonated a nuclear weapon in Krakatoa during a conflict, triggering a larger-than-expected chain reaction. He maintained that Atlantean survivors dispersed around the world and influenced civilizations, including those of Egypt, the Aztecs, the Mayans, and peoples of South America, citing engineering, irrigation, agriculture, navigation, and other technologies as part of that legacy.
