Mike Bara

Author, TV presenter and former aerospace designer

Spent more than 25 years designing and consulting for aerospace companies before co-authoring Dark Mission: The Secret History of NASA (2007) with Richard C. Hoagland, a New York Times bestseller. He says he has since published nine books, selling more than 100,000 copies — among them Ancient Aliens on the Moon (2012), Ancient Aliens on Mars (2013) and Hidden Agenda: NASA and the Secret Space Program (2016), which argue that NASA imagery and a privately funded “secret space program” point to a hidden alien history. On television he lists more than 50 appearances on History’s Ancient Aliens, the Discovery series Uncovering Aliens (2014), and SyFy’s Aliens on the Moon: The Truth Exposed alongside Buzz Aldrin. More recently he co-wrote six episodes of AJ Gentile’s The Why Files YouTube channel and has discussed UFOs and UAPs on Fox News and Fox Nation.

James Bartley

Abduction researcher and independent military historian

Says his own abduction experiences from childhood drove him to research the phenomenon, which led him into military intelligence and special-operations history and the occult. A protégé of Tulsa abduction researcher Barbara Bartholic, he has spent about 25 years investigating abductions and what he describes as the military–aerospace connection to UFOs, with field work in the deserts of southern California, Arizona and Nevada. He has lectured in the US, England and Australia — including Sydney, the Blue Mountains, Brisbane and Melbourne — and through his YouTube channel interviews guests on what he calls the “Reptilian Overlordship.” He remains a regular on Coast to Coast AM, most recently in September 2026.

Judy Carroll

Contactee and author, Brisbane

Born in Queensland in 1952 to a family of Creole, English and Romany heritage, Carroll left school to dance flamenco professionally, following her grandmother — a dancer and clairvoyant in the Romany tradition — a background she credits with helping her make sense of a lifetime of encounters with the beings known as Greys or Zetas, some of them fully conscious. She co-wrote The Zeta Message (2011) with Helene Kaye and its companion Human by Day, Zeta by Night, and has since written Extraterrestrial Presence on Earth and Cosmic Spirituality. She says the visitors encouraged her to meditate and study Tai Chi and natural healing; she is a Tai Chi instructor and Reiki master, and a three-time Coast to Coast AM guest.

Gerald Celente

Trends forecaster and publisher of the Trends Journal

Born in the Bronx in 1946, Celente worked in New York politics — running a mayoral campaign in Yonkers and serving as executive assistant to the secretary of the New York State Senate — then spent the 1970s as a government-affairs specialist between Chicago and Washington. In 1980 he founded the Trends Research Institute, now in Kingston in New York’s Hudson Valley, which publishes the Trends Journal. He says his forecasts have included the 1987 crash, the dot-com bubble and the 2008 financial crisis, and he is known for blunt warnings of market collapse, food riots, tax revolts and social unrest, delivered on CNN, Fox News, ABC and MSNBC and on Oprah Winfrey’s show. A self-described “political atheist,” he rejects both major US parties. He is the author of Trend Tracking (1991).

Ole Dammegard

Swedish researcher and author, Light on Conspiracies

A former journalist who has also worked as a musician, a composer for TV and short films, an artist and an inventor, Dammegard has spent more than 35 years researching political assassinations and mass-casualty events. His starting point was the 1986 murder of Swedish Prime Minister Olof Palme, the subject of his two-volume Coup d’État in Slow Motion; Swedish prosecutors closed that case in 2020 by naming a suspect who had died two decades earlier, a finding Dammegard rejects. His research has since taken in JFK, Robert Kennedy, Martin Luther King, John Lennon and Princess Diana, and he argues that many mass shootings and terror attacks — among them 9/11, Oklahoma City and the 2011 Norway attacks — were staged “false flag” operations. He describes himself as a “truth seeker, code breaker and peacemaker,” and his bio says he received the Prague Peace Prize and was adopted by the Apache Nation. He publishes through his Light on Conspiracies website and lectures internationally; his solo album is From Prison to Paradise.

Stan Deyo

Author, researcher and publisher, standeyo.com

Born in Clifton, Texas, and raised in Dallas, Deyo finished high school at 16 and won an appointment to the US Air Force Academy before training in computer programming and systems analysis at IBM. He moved to Australia in 1971, where he says he worked on advanced propulsion and “free energy” under a global project directed by Edward Teller and Andrei Sakharov, and he says he held an above-top-secret clearance and worked undercover for the FBI. Living in Western Australia, he wrote The Cosmic Conspiracy (first published 1978), which ranges across secret societies, his own claims of involvement in anti-gravity research, and UFOs, and he hosted the Channel 9 Perth specials UFOs Are Here, UFOs Deyo and You and UFOs Are Back. He says he spent ten years forecasting earthquakes from US Navy sea-surface temperature data, and that he located the Biblical Garden of Eden in Tanzania (2014) and Atlantis (2016). He met his wife, Holly Deyo, through an appearance on Art Bell’s Coast to Coast AM; together they publish on disaster preparedness and earth changes, and since 2001 have lived in Pueblo County, Colorado.

Laura Eisenhower

Astrologer, speaker and author, CCC Publishing

Great-granddaughter of the five-star general and 34th US President Dwight D. Eisenhower, she describes herself as a master astrologer and speaks internationally on exopolitics and spiritual awakening. She says that as a child she sensed hostile forces working around her, and that a long personal journey through hard times led her to what she calls the union of divine feminine and masculine energies, which she believes is encoded in human DNA. Her experience includes extreme wilderness training, and she has said she was approached in 2006 to join a secret Mars colonisation program as part of a “secret space program”, an offer she says she turned down to stay true to her purpose on Earth. She also discusses claims about her great-grandfather’s administration and extraterrestrial contact, and speaks on what she calls humanity’s galactic history, its different timelines and a “Great Awakening” now under way. She is published by CCC Publishing.

Michael Feeley

Former UK police officer, author and researcher

A former UK police officer, Feeley now describes himself as an ancient code breaker and spiritual life coach. He says he applies 17 years of evidence-gathering experience and investigative training to the symbols and codes of the ancient world, arguing that famous monuments carry a hidden message from secret brotherhoods, and that what he calls star codes show the Great Pyramid is far older than mainstream Egyptology accepts. He also describes himself as a multiple UFO experiencer, saying he has seen portals open and unconventional craft emerge, and has met an extraterrestrial being face to face. He has written seven paperbacks and several e-books, among them The Secret Christ, The Movement – Illumination of the World and Alchemy of the Gods (2019), which carries a foreword by fellow guest Mary Rodwell and argues that humans originated in another constellation and that the pyramids, Nazca lines, crop circles and Easter Island’s Moai carry encoded messages. He also writes for magazines, leads group tours of ancient sites, and is working on a series of children’s books. He has spoken on Coast to Coast AM with George Noory, Midnight in the Desert with Tim Weisberg and The Other Side of Midnight with Richard C. Hoagland, appeared on Edge Media TV and in the independent documentary Strawman – The Nature of the Cage, and presented the series Higher Consciousness on David Icke’s Ickonic TV, where he also features in the film Divine Intervention alongside Icke and Erich von Däniken.

Brien Foerster

Author, researcher and tour guide, Peru

Born in Rochester, Minnesota, Foerster grew up on Canada’s west coast, where at 11 he became fascinated with the art of the Haida people and began carving totem poles under Native teachers. After an honours Bachelor of Science he took up carving and sculpture full time at 25. In 1995 he moved to Maui, where he was assistant project manager on the 62-foot double-hulled sailing canoe Mo‘okiha O Pi‘ilani and the restoration of the Mo‘olele, and, having learned paddle-making from master carver Keola Sequeira, built an international outrigger paddle business. Peru became his next focus: his study of the Inca led to A Brief History of the Incas, and he became assistant director of the Paracas History Museum, south of Lima, while helping the local municipality build foreign tourism. He writes about pre-Inca stone monuments and the elongated skulls of Paracas, which he argues may not be fully human; mainstream researchers attribute the shape to deliberate head-binding. In 2014 he publicised preliminary DNA claims about the Paracas skulls, from samples passed to a geneticist through fellow guest Lloyd Pye; the results were never published in a peer-reviewed form or independently replicated. His other interests include the ancient history of Hawai‘i and the search for the lost continent of Mu. His bio credits him with eight books and four appearances on Ancient Aliens, and he lives in Peru with his wife.

Nathan Hague

Software developer

A British-Australian software developer who regularly travels between Thailand and Sydney, Hague was stopped at random by Australian Border Force officers at Sydney airport on 16 August 2018 and held for about 90 minutes while they took his phone and laptop into a back room. He says officers required him to unlock his phone, would not say what “suspicious content” they were looking for, and refused to answer whether his files would be copied or kept; he believes they cracked his laptop password and copied both devices, and his phone came back in developer mode. The ABF acknowledged searching the devices but denied installing any software. Because the devices held potentially sensitive client data, he said he would need to report the breach to European authorities. The search came two days after the government released its draft Assistance and Access Bill, which proposed wider device-access powers; his case was covered by The Guardian and Sydney Criminal Lawyers, and it prompted him to join the Science Party. A year later Digital Rights Watch was still citing it as proof that such a search could happen to any Australian. He came on the show three days after the search to tell the story.
