Bruce Gernon explores the growing UFO connection, atmospheric anomalies, vortex theories, and the unanswered questions still surrounding the Bermuda Triangle.

This is Part One of my continuing conversation with pilot and Bermuda Triangle researcher Bruce Gernon, whose 1970 encounter with Electronic Fog, a vortex-like cloud tunnel, instrument disruption, and an apparent time-space displacement continues to raise questions more than fifty years later.

What has become increasingly apparent in Bruce’s ongoing research is the UFO connection — though exactly how that relationship works remains unresolved. Is the phenomenon atmospheric, electromagnetic, plasma-based, space-time related, or something being used by an unknown intelligence? Bruce continues exploring those possibilities through his YouTube channel, where he shares visual dramatizations and three-dimensional reconstructions designed to show more accurately what he experienced.

We will reconnect for Part Two to explore another fascinating development: Bruce is now working with AI to help investigate the science behind his experience. That research will be included in his next book and may offer new ways to examine the atmospheric, electromagnetic, and space-time questions that have surrounded his encounter from the beginning.

Marine behavior specialist Anne Gordon spent more than twenty years training animals for film and television before the ocean's largest minds pulled her life in a new direction. In this conversation, she reframes where we actually stand in the story: humans have been around 50,000 to 70,000 years, while whales first emerged some 40 million years ago and dolphins around 10 million. Beside these elder species, we're the toddlers — and we have a great deal to learn.

Anne's invitation is simple and demanding: spend time with these animals, listen deeply, and observe them without superimposing our own beliefs and behaviors onto them. Do that, she says, and our relationship with them — and with the ocean, nature, and ourselves — inevitably deepens. You can meet them in the wild, or call them into your meditations and your dreams.

Known as a bridge between science and spirit, Anne is the author of the forthcoming Wisdom from the Sea: Lessons in Joy, Flow, Healing and Love from Dolphins & Whales (Nov 23, 2026).

"Once you look into the eye of a whale, your life will never be the same again. There is a deep honesty that exists there — one that will insist upon integrity from that moment on." — Anne Gordon

Kathleen Ready Dayan has always written about complicated human territory. Her earlier novel L.A. Ice explored addiction, recovery, love, and the difficult reality of getting sober and staying sober — a story readers with firsthand experience praised for its authenticity.

But there was another part of Kathleen’s life she initially kept out of her public story. As she became more open about her own experiences, she began talking about an unexplained encounter that challenged her worldview, spirit-guide contact, departed loved ones, past-life memories, mediumship, and the connection between sobriety and spiritual awakening.

Those experiences now inform Before We Were Born and Meet Me in Heaven, novels exploring reincarnation, soul connections, choice, and what may happen between lives. This time, we go behind the fiction: What did Kathleen experience, what did she initially resist — and what finally made her willing to talk about it?

Sometimes the bigger story begins when we stop asking, “Can this be real?” and start asking, “What is this showing me?”

The second book is coming — a perfect reason to revisit my conversation with Jes Kerzen.

Jes is a retired teacher and advocate for neurodivergent students. Her story began when Asher, an autistic six-year-old in her class, appeared to use telepathy to communicate with the one adult he believed could “hear” him.

Jes says she had no previous experience with telepathy. But her connection with Asher opened the door to years of exploring psi, consciousness, remote viewing and the dimensions Asher calls The Realms. Their extraordinary relationship became the book A Mind Beyond Words.

One of the most fascinating details Jes shared in our interview was Asher’s apparent ability to preview material in a book and then explain concepts she found difficult to understand.

His message is equally striking: “Don’t write me (and those like me) off, if we seem limited and inadequate in human terms… We have subtler things to share, which will benefit humanity.” — Asher, October 2023

Now their story continues with a second book, expanding their conversations about consciousness, psychic ability, neurodivergence and The Realms.

Revisit the interview and discover where this remarkable teacher-student relationship began. Sometimes the person we think needs to be taught is the one who came to teach us.

“Skeptics have dismissed the Triangle as a nonmystery, but they weren’t in my airplane when the fog surrounded my craft and I leaped ahead 100 miles. I documented what happened and memorized every detail of that flight.”
— Bruce Gernon

In December 1970, Bruce was flying from the Bahamas to Florida when he encountered a rapidly forming storm in the Bermuda Triangle. He describes entering a tunnel-like opening in the clouds before his aircraft became surrounded by a strange gray-white haze.

His instruments malfunctioned, visibility became distorted, and the airplane appeared to travel approximately 100 miles in far less time than should have been possible.

Bruce later coined the term electronic fog to describe the anomaly. The experience changed the course of his life and led to more than five decades of research into weather, electromagnetism, vortex formations, and possible distortions of time and space.

To show what he witnessed more accurately, Bruce created a three-dimensional reconstruction of the flight, including the cloud tunnel, electronic fog, and apparent displacement.

Watch the animated reconstruction

In our conversation, Bruce also shares more of his personal story, including a childhood UFO sighting and an unexplained voice he heard after the flight. The voice told him to remember the events of that day because they would be important for the world to understand in the future.

Bruce has also documented a curious hexagonal opening in storm clouds witnessed with his granddaughter. Could geometric cloud formations be connected to vortex activity—or something science has yet to identify?

For decades the public conversation has largely asked: “Are UFOs real?”

Director Rhett McClure has a confession. He had his own UFO sighting when he was 13. And that made him curious. When he stumbled onto John's story, he wanted to know more.

JOHN FOSTER: IDENTIFIED PHENOMENA is a documentary asking a more challenging question than whether UFOs are real. The question: What happens when a lifetime of documented experiences refuses to fit within our current understanding of science, consciousness, history, and human potential?

Foster recounts encounters involving windowed saucers, coffin-shaped craft, luminous atmospheric distortions, and entities that appeared capable of moving between realities. Speaking as both an experiencer and an engineer, he explains how he continually tested his own memories against verifiable facts, determined to understand what was happening rather than simply believe it.

Sometimes the greatest mystery isn’t what appears in the sky. It’s what quietly walks beside us for a lifetime.

A blast from the past: some of my original Conscious Living shows are being featured in the special limited-time revival of Empower Radio.

I have no idea which titles were selected, so this is a true archive surprise. These episodes are presented as-is — original content, recorded live, free of edits, and very much from the moment. Gasp! And yes, that photo is… dated. Gasp x2.

Empower Radio began in 2007 as an idea scribbled on the back of a receipt after lunch: what if radio could be used to raise consciousness and connect with people in a deeper, more meaningful way?

Founder Brent Carey brought that idea to life in 2009, launching Empower Radio as an internet station in Northern Michigan. Live shows were later made available as “shows on-demand” before most listeners were familiar with the word podcast. Over time, Empower became one of the early national podcast networks offering subscription-based shows focused on personal growth, spirituality, health, wellness, and conscious living.

After 13 years as an online radio station and podcast network, Empower paused in 2022 and later evolved into The Empower Channel in 2024, expanding its mission through video on YouTube, Facebook, X, and Substack.

Now, in celebration of Empower’s 17th anniversary, Empower Radio is back for a limited time, streaming a curated mix of inspiring conversations from 2009 through today — including archive episodes from longtime hosts, plus new weekly episodes from Bonnie Wirth and Lisa Campion.

I’m honored to have Wendy’s Coffeehouse included in this revival and grateful to be part of Empower’s larger mission: positive media created to inform, uplift, and inspire curiosity.

UPDATE: When the site paused in 2022, we were given the option to remove shows we wanted to keep because the archive would be retired. New life - and new discovery! Spotify has my Empower Radio Conscious Living shows. Gasp x3!

Empower Radio aired 10 years of my interviews with guests. What a great surprise to find this archive is still available. I am so glad it survived. Names and show descriptions are all saved.
