Edge of Wonder found declassified CIA documents about vampires, accounts of people having alien encounters, and news about Antarctica that seriously turned some heads: These are the weirdest things Ben and Rob found this week, which will be covered on this Friday Night Live.
Certain operations and programs that the CIA declassified are a treasure trove of unsettling, weird, and straight up paranormal experiments. Ever heard of the plot to utilize fear of vampires in a particular village as a war tactic? But this brings up the question: What made the villagers in the Philippines so scared to begin with? Also revealed in old CIA documents was how pipe bombs were planted around the United States to blame Cuba and be able to launch an attack in what was called Operation Northwoods. Also speaking of war, hilariously, the CIA had plans prepared against Canada just in case they were to ever invade the US. (Of course, since it’s Canada, if they did attack, they’d probably give a heads up first out of politeness anyway, eh.)
In other news: 1) A second Boeing whistleblower, Joshua Dean, died due to an incurable, severe infection. 2) Scientists have been testing consciousnesses in animals and are concluding that they are all sentient beings. 3) A former US Navy pilot claimed that aliens visited him in his home. 4) New evidence has emerged that Antarctica was once a lush, green land full of rivers and lakes. Could this be evidence of a lost civilization?
Join Ben and Rob from Edge of Wonder on this Friday Night Live as they dive into what all of this means, plus the “Dig Deep” Live Q&A followed by the Top 10 Weirder News of the Week only on Rise.TV. See you out … on the edge!

Do Ancient Mayan Temples Align With Star Constellations?
Tuesday Apr 30, 2024
Tuesday Apr 30, 2024
Did the ancient Maya people use the stars and the constellations as a map to build their temples? New evidence hints that they did, which brings up a new question about archaeology: What if we used star maps to look for ancient sites? Would they prove that certain sites were man made? In Graham Hancock’s Ancient Apocalypse series, he began to explore this theory, joining other researchers who have pointed out that the Pyramids of Giza are the main location that aligns exactly with the stars. Today, mainstream scholars and archaeologists disprove this theory, however, because the stars do not align now—or even 3,000 years ago—with what they say is the age of the pyramid complex.
However, the pyramids did align with the stars very exactly over 12,000 years ago, going against the mainstream understanding of when the pyramids were built. But what if we took this approach a step further, venturing off of our own planet and onto another, specifically Mars? Using star charts, is it possible that the ancient region of Cydonia on Mars holds the key to a cosmic mystery, revealing that it was a site built by an intelligent, advanced race? Will we find a rational layout that mimics the stars? Or is it all random structures formed over eons of wind and dirt?
Join Ben and Rob on this Edge of Wonder Live show as they unravel the mysteries of these ancient locations. At the end of the show, don’t miss the live Q&A followed by a meditation/prayer only on Rise.TV. See you out on the edge!

London Horses of the Apocalypse, Nostradamus & Dirty Hairy Mandela Effect
Friday Apr 26, 2024
Friday Apr 26, 2024
A bloody, white horse and a black horse were seen rampaging through the streets of London. Is it a sign of the four horsemen of the apocalypse? The sight sparked all kinds of theories about doomsday, but what does it really mean?
They were military horses that allegedly got loose, injuring 4 people and damaging a lot of cars in the process. In a very strange coincidence, Big Ben also stopped working at 9:00 in the morning, then climbed 11 times at 10:06. Edge of Wonder took a deep dive into past prophecies and found that amazingly, Nostradamus might have predicted this event hundreds of years ago.
Tune into this Friday Night Live to look deeper into this weirdness, along with a discussion about a TikTok ban coming into effect. What does it mean for the American people, especially the younger generations? Also on the show, Ben found two different Mandela Effects in Dirty Hairy. Join Ben Chasteen and special guest Simon Esler as they unravel all of this and more! Also be sure not to miss the Top 10 Weirder News of the Week and the Dig Deep Live Q&A only on Rise.TV.

Nuclear Tests & Ancient Civilizations: Debating Our Mysterious Past
Tuesday Apr 23, 2024
Tuesday Apr 23, 2024
There’s a heated debate in the world of ancient archeology about how far back the human race goes. Graham Hancock’s hit show on Netflix, Ancient Apocalypse, has rocked the world of archeology, testing the limits of the mainstream understanding of our own human history. However, archaeologist Flint Dibble couldn’t let his work lay in ruins; he went on Joe Rogan to debate Graham Hancock over Hancock’s findings. Who won the debate? Why are mainstream archeologists so keen on ignoring certain details? Did Hancock present a strong enough case, or should his claims be left in the past? Join Ben and Rob on this Edge of Wonder Live as they discuss the viral debate. Also continuing on controversial discussions with Joe Rogan, recently, evidence was presented that the famous footage of the nuclear bomb wasn’t real. Was the “Trinity test,” which was set off by Oppenheimer and his team of scientists, actually fake? Could there be any truth to this theory? Find out what billionaire Marc Andreessen said on Joe Rogan’s show about the nuclear tests, as well as what others are saying to contest his findings. Of course, at the end of the show, don’t miss the live Q&A followed by a mediation/prayer only on Rise.TV. See you out on the edge!

Dubai Flood via Cloud Seeding? Plus We Found a Structure on the Moon!
Friday Apr 19, 2024
Friday Apr 19, 2024
Dubai is experiencing flooding after apparent cloud seeding, plus Edge of Wonder may have found a structure on the moon with a P1000 Nikon camera! These are the weirdest things that happened this week that will get covered this Friday Night Live.
The flooding in Dubai hasn’t slowed down, the worst flooding the country has seen in over 75 years. People are being forced to abandon their vehicles as many streets have become new rivers. The first report from Bloomberg said that cloud seeding was to blame, which was quickly attacked by other media even though Dubai has been cloud seeding for years to help with their dry climate. Although some organizations try to call chemtrails or cloud seeding a conspiracy theory, several US states have banned cloud seeding altogether. But what is cloud seeding? Who is doing this, and are chemtrails and cloud seeding the same?
Also in this episode of Friday Night Live, a few states had an outage that prevented 9-1-1 calls; millions of people couldn’t make emergency calls in the affected states. Was this just a glitch? Or was it a potential cyberattack? The FBI has been warning about entities like the Chinese Communist Party attacking critical infrastructure. In outer space news, Ben bought a Nikon P1000 camera and took some amazing photos of the moon and sun. Shockingly, some very interesting anomalies showed up in the photos, like a possible structure on the moon! Find out more about what’s in the photos on tonight’s show.
Be sure not to miss the weekly Mandela Effect (with Cheez-It versus Cheez-Itz) and the Top 10 Weirder News of the Week. Hear about the man who balanced a running lawnmower on his chin, a ghostly soldier caught on camera, and a real Weekend at Bernie’s scenario in which a woman brought a real corpse to a bank.

Pandas Aren’t Real? Wild Theory in China Isn’t so Black & White
Friday Apr 19, 2024
Friday Apr 19, 2024
Are pandas real? Well, one wild conspiracy theory says they’re not. On the surface, it sounds as ridiculous as believing that space is fake. After all, we see pandas in the wild, right? (But HAS anyone actually seen a panda in the wild?) Well, the more Edge of Wonder looked into this, the weirder and stranger it got. This isn’t as black and white as we expected it to be. Why aren't there any ancient drawings of pandas, and why does it seem they’re only found in one very small place in China?
Why was the first verifiable reference to a panda only in the late 1860s? Were they killed off? Join Ben and Rob on this Edge of Wonder Live show as they look deeper into this to ask the question, “Where do pandas come from?” Also going on this China theme, the Chinese Communist Party is having massive problems from missing ministers and party officials to signs of corruption and economic downfalls. Is something far darker that anyone knows happening behind the scenes in China? At the end of the show, don’t miss the live Q&A followed by a mediation/prayer only on Rise.TV.

O.J. Simpson passed away, a “blob” anomaly was spotted over Antarctica, and more UFOs may have been caught on camera. These are the weirdest things that happened this week, which will get covered in this Friday Night Live.
After former NFL star O.J. Simpson's family announced his death on April 10, 2024, sports fans, celebrities, and true crime fanatics have been reacting and posting about the news. However, on top of all of the memes being created, there were a lot of memories coming up. The O.J. trial was one of the most watched programs of all time on TV, and it changed how people viewed television as well as how media agencies reported on the news. Since the internet didn’t exist yet, people were dependent on what the news media told them about the case. For the media companies, it wasn’t about if he was guilty or not; it was about milking this story for all it was worth as 30 million viewers tuned in every day. But did O.J. actually commit the murder of his ex-wife Nicole Brown Simpson and her friend Ron Goldman? Why were certain facts left out of the courtroom, and why was America so fixated on the whole ordeal? Join Ben and Rob from Edge of Wonder as they unravel the history behind the case, what O.J. Simpson said for himself, and what others are saying today.
Also on this show, there’s a mystery: A strange and unusual, massive, dark blob appeared on a map traveling north over Antarctica toward Africa—and 80-foot waves were spotted, as well. What was this strange anomaly? Was it just a glitch in the mapping system, as the company who spotted it stated? Is there more to this mystery? Find out on this Friday Night Live. Don’t forget about the Mandela Effect (or Bendela Effect, as we call them). What do you remember: Cheez-It or Cheez-Itz? Finish the show with everyone’s favorite, the Top 10 Weirder News of the Week, plus the “Dig Deep” Live Q&A only on Rise.TV! See you out… on the edge!

Is there an “alien camera”? Word on the street is that the Nikon P1000 is being discontinued on the same day that Nikon signed a Space Act Agreement with NASA.
The P1000 could zoom in on celestial objects better than any other camera on the market, leaving amateur stargazers and UFO hunters wondering if this will impact their ability to capture what’s really going on in space. Simultaneously, the White House directed NASA to create a time zone for the moon, and the United States saw a rare solar eclipse on April 8, 2024. Join Rob Counts for a discussion about lunar happenings, photography, and the occult history of eclipses.
Why were certain groups reportedly trying to generate fear around the eclipse? How did the changes in lunar and solar energy affect humans at the time? What symbolism is there around NASA’s APEP campaign, named after a “cosmic world serpent from ancient Egyptian cosmology”? Tune in for an otherworldly Edge of Wonder Live show out on the edge. Then, don’t miss the live Q&A followed by a meditation/prayer only on Rise.TV.

Sesame Street Mandela Effect, Weird Weather & What’s Up With P. Diddy?

There’s a new Sesame Street Mandela Effect, the weather is going wild, and what’s up with P. Diddy? These are the weirdest things that happened this week, and Friday Night Live will dive into them all.
It’s the last weekend before the “great American solar eclipse,” and the weather is already acting weird. With an earthquake that just hit the New Jersey and New York area right after the earthquake that hit Taiwan, mainstream sources are wondering if this is because of climate change or something else. Surprisingly, some are following Bill Gates' suggestion of blocking out the sun—just like what The Simpsons predicted long ago. But what is “climate change” in relation to things like an eclipse or an earthquake? Tornado warnings and strange weather are happening all around the world, as well.
That’s not all: there’s a new photo of the Statue of Liberty's torch being hit by lightning around this same time, and some believe these are all warnings of something deeper that needs to be fixed. Back on Earth, more and more allegations are coming out about P. Diddy. He did host A-list celebrities, who have a lot to say. Diddy is freely walking around Miami and even going live on social media. What’s the truth? Why aren’t the mainstream media and other companies treating him the same way they did other celebrities who had allegations against them?
In this episode’s weekly Mandela Effect or “Bendela Effect,” as they’re lovingly called, there’s a new, big one in the entertainment sphere: the Sesame Street character “the Count.” What do you remember his cape looking like? Join Edge of Wonder on this Friday Night as they dive deeper into these topics as well as the “Dig Deep” Live Q&A and the fan favorite Top 10 Weirder News of the Week only on Rise.TV.

CERN Targets Dark Matter on 2024 Solar Eclipse: What Could Go Wrong?

CERN is targeting dark matter during the 2024 total solar eclipse. What could go wrong? In what’s being hailed an “historic moment,” CERN will attempt to harness the power of the world's most renowned particle accelerator (the Large Hadron Collider or LHC). The purpose is to help scientists understand what they call “dark matter,” which is different from antimatter or dark energy.
According to most scientific understandings, “dark matter” is still a “hypothetical form of matter.” (Then why CERN is spending millions to research some “hypothetical matter” if it’s only a theory. Do they already know it exists?) What is “dark matter” anyway? Dark matter is like an invisible force that's spread throughout the universe. It doesn't emit light or energy like stars or galaxies do, so it can’t be seen directly. However, scientists think it's there because of its gravitational effects.
Just like how the Earth pulls things towards it, dark matter's gravity or attractive properties affect the movement of stars and galaxies—theoretically. It helps to hold them together and shapes the large-scale structure of the universe. In other words, it’s possible that CERN may be trying to manipulate dark matter and thus affect the gravitational force, which could cause a time shift or subspace distortion that in their words “would last only a fraction of a second.” In our words, though, “You’re trying to open up a time portal using a black hole.”
How? The Large Hadron Collider will accelerate protons at nearly the speed of light, recreating conditions akin to those just after the “big bang,” in hopes of unveiling the secrets surrounding dark matter's influence on the formation of the universe. However, the “big bang” itself is still just a theory. Sir Roger Penrose shocked the world of physics when he stated that the big bang wasn’t the start of the universe, but rather, the end of a previous one. If that’s true, what if CERN isn’t just looking for dark matter from our own universe, but also the form of matter that came from the previous universe? Join Edge of Wonder to see what these new, wild experiments mean during the solar eclipse of 2024 and whether we can expect to discover even more Mandela Effects after April 8, 2024. Maybe we’ll find the cornucopia back in the Fruit of the Loom logo! At the end of the show, don’t miss the live Q&A followed by a mediation/prayer only on Rise.TV. See you out on the edge!
