JILL CORNWELL, ANIMAL COMMUNICATIONS- PAST AND PRESENT
Tuesday Mar 15, 2011
Tuesday Mar 15, 2011
DO GHOST ANIMALS EXIST? It was right around the beginning of November last year when I went to my door and saw these ghost like creatures on my deck, so I snapped a picture for evidence. Now I'm sure someone will come along and try to debunk it, right? What more proof do you need? I was there, the ghost dogs were there, why are people so closed minded?
When I was a lad we had this pretty amazing cat who lived with us for 17 years, I still think of him today. Sometimes he seems to come to me in dreams and sometimes, it's as if I feel his presence. Every so often I'll think of him and be a little sad. The picture I have of this orange
tabby is very similar to the way ole Teddy Bear looked. Even the same kind of facial look. When he was affectionette he was all over you, when he wasn't, he would ignore you. Teddy Bear and I had some grand adventures and it's like we formed this great friendship. It was amazing how he came to our family, at just the right time when we had lost our other cat on the highway. The timing had to be perfect. We lived near a busy highway and most of our cats didn't live very long, yet Teddy Bear never got taken by the highway. There was something unique about that cat.
My guest this week is Jill Cornwell from Petosky Michigan who claims to have an ability to communicate with animals. I talked to her a while back and this time I invited my radio co-host Mindy Wills Davis to come on and ask a few questions of Jill. At left you will see one of three pets that Mindy has had or
presently has. Hemy, the Chipmunk, one of Mindy's family members. Now what would a chipmunk have to say? Does it have a message for Mindy? Mindy has a dog named Sassy that passed and she has missed him dearly. Would Sassy have a message for Mindy from the other side?
Is there any validity to what Jill is doing? I absolutely believe there are those who profit from this and have no ability whatsoever. Jill doesn't do this for a living, she doesn't do it that often, but it's an ability she claims she's developed and only charges $45 for a half hour. So does that make Jill more credible? Not by that alone, I can only say that I trust her and I am impressed by what she has to say. On top of that it really doesn't matter what some one charges, it's whether their heart is into it. Judge for yourself.
Wouldn't it be nice to communicate with your pets, or with those that have passed? Is it possible? Aren't all things connected through thought? Are animals smarter than we think? Do they have souls as well? Do they go on? Do they reincarnate?

THE MAIN REASON WHY WE GET SICK
Wednesday Mar 09, 2011
Wednesday Mar 09, 2011
Years ago I read a book, I have no idea where I got if from, but the book suggested that all diseases were caused by certain negative feeling and attitudes. For example: a cold could be brought on by indecision in your life. Cancer was often brought on by anger. I read that book some 20 years ago at least and I really don't know how accurate it was.
Maybe 10 years ago (has it been that long?) I met Georgie Holbrook through John St. Augustine. Georgie is a former Youper (Escanaba native) and now calls Houston Texas home. If you know her story you realize that she went through a 7 year ordeal with incurrable Rosacea. Notice her picture on the cover of her latest book. No Rosacea. How did she do that? She found the answers within, she traced the start of her illness to a previous time in her life. After discovering the root of her problem, within 9 months she was cured! At least physically, it took many years to release the emotional end of her dis-ease. Now how can that happen?
What I like about Georgie is that through her experience she learned to understand the body and what kinds of thoughts will affect which organs. If someone has a heart problem, perhaps their heart is breaking, or they need to open up their heart. Does that even remotely make sense? We are the ones who create our own illnesses and we are the ones who cure our own disease. Some may agree with that, some would say it's caused by stress. Georgie takes it one step futher and offers many different options to understand why you are ill and how you can get better. Will it work for you? I think there is a good chance it could, but there are no guarantees, even with conventional medicine. I think there are many factors to consider. What if, before you were born, you made an agreement to die at age 67 from cancer and then when the cancer arrives you decide you want to live. Possible? Did you know that many people will develope cancer or a serious disease 6 months after they lose a job? Did you know that most people will have a heart attack on a Monday? Have you ever known someone who says "If I could just last til Christmas I'd be happy." And they die shortly after. My own mother said "If I could just see the Packers win another Superbowl before I go." She did in 1997 and then died later that year.
Georgie is a gentle spirit who knows love (God) and joy are a part of healing. We also touch on the law of attraction which is a good idea. If you think you are going to be sick, or if you worry, or if you endorse that energy, guess what's going to happen? If you take away anything from this interview understand that if you let things build up inside you, it will make you sick. Look around you, how often do you see those that speak their mind sickly? Georgie says it's okay to show our emotions, we need to get it out.

SIGNS?
Wednesday Mar 02, 2011
Wednesday Mar 02, 2011
That's a sign! Is it? Are we given signs from time to time? I think so. People used to tell me that most things were a sign, maybe, I don't know, how would they know? Then when you ask them what it meant, they have no clue. Everybody seems to talk a good game but when it comes right down to actually living it, well that's another story. Or, here's another one, "Everything happens for a reason." If I had a buck everytime I heard that, well I'd have a lot of bucks. Well then, why does it happen? "Don't know, it just happens and I believe that." Have you bothered to explore as to why? Probably not. And that's all you get if you don't take the next step.
In 2007 I came home from work one summer day and on the railroad tracks was a bald eagle, some 20 feet from my truck, and he was just staring towards my house some 70 yards away. One, what was I thinking when I bought a house this close to the tracks? Two, what is a bald eagle doing sitting on the tracks and what's so facinating about my house? I rolled down my window. "Hey buddy, how you doing." Nothing. I finally made a noise similar to one my mother would make when she was communicating with animals and the eagle turned his head slowly towards me (instead of flying off) and gave me a disparaging glare and then proceeded to turn his glance back towards my house. Now, is that a sign? And why didn't he fly off? In my opinion the eagle was an animal guide that was pointing out a few things in my life, this made more sense when I read from the book Animal Speak.
My guest this week has had many signs in his life. Some have led him to greater awareness and some have led him to more questions. John St. Augustine is a friend who I've worked with for over 10 years. He's been on my show before. John is not afraid to speak his mind, and while some may not like what he has to say, I welcome anyone who wishes to speak from their heart. John has faced many obstacles in his life, he nearly died twice, he has seen things that most do not see. John made a choice to start seeking answers and it all started with a trek he took from Rapid River Michigan to Chigago and back, on foot. Most will not walk his journey, most won't take the time, but we all can, it is always our choice and if we do- we can follow the signs. John also has a blog you can check out and has a project he's working on with Bill Curtis that may be arriving soon to a television set near you.

On another note, if you're sitting around a fire anytime soon, if you get a chance throw in some tobacco and say a prayer for Bruce the Firekeeper, thank you, I send him my love and light as well.

MAKING MIRACLES WITH DR BETH
Wednesday Feb 23, 2011
Wednesday Feb 23, 2011
On Sunday I was between a rock and a hard place. I had been having difficulty lining up guests. So I asked the universe if I should continue to do this, was it beneficial? I thought I could at least cut back and not do shows every week. Like many of you I work a fulltime job that consumes roughly 50 hours per week of my time. Like many of you my workload has increased. When I do a show it probably takes 3 hours including research, recording, editing, uploading, and publishing. I don't mind the extra work, this is my passion. So enough complaining already, okay? But as I came into this week I was a bit frustrated...
Monday, out of nowhere, I got an email from an old friend who requested to be on my show. Her name is Dr. Beth, she was a guest once before but we hadn't talked in many moons. Is this an answer from the universe or is it a coincidence? On Tuesday I got an email from another friend, still a coincidence? Hmm.........
Talk about doing a 180. The last few shows have been about ufos and abductions and now this is something totally different, how are they connected? Dr Beth is an ordained minister who hails from the Phillipines, yet she had a home not far from me in Garden Michigan. In our previous interview I learned Dr Beth's life changed after she suffered a stroke. She went on an inward journey where she claims that God provided her with answers. Her illness had very little to do with the physical reality, it had to do with her spiritual journey. If you want to hear joy, true joy, then listen to what Dr Beth has to say. Can it change your world? I absolutely think so. She reminds us that if we focus on the negative what will we get? More of the same. We have to let it go and focus on what we really want out of life with a joy filled attitude. Is it that simple? Someone once said to me: Whatever we focus on the longest becomes the strongest. I agree, it is so easy to fall into the negative viewpoint because we live (in my opinion) in a world that has been controlled by negative forces, yet the darkness is beginning to be penetrated by more and more light. How do we deal with the chaos? How do we make things better? Do you see why Dr Beth is my guest this week?

IS DISCLOSURE COMING?
Wednesday Feb 16, 2011
Wednesday Feb 16, 2011
When I talk to David Twichell it's like welcoming an old friend home. If I could do a show just talking to others about their experiences, well that would be fine with me. I don't feel the need to bring on the experts, because when it comes right down to it, it's just a matter of opinion. I'd rather talk to someone who went through an ordeal and experienced it first hand. Almost all of my guests have that in common. David is no different even though he is the host of a ufo related radio show in Detroit, he has experienced phenomena first hand. David has remained humble, unlike others who deal with this topic and may have gained some noteriety.
In the past we've talked a little bit about his family's experience with a close encounter in 1962. This week David goes into more detail about this incident and how it affected his sister for years after. It wasn't until a few years ago that she was able to put some of the pieces to the puzzle together. It has had a dramatic effect on her life.
This past Saturday on NBC's weekend Today Show one of the hosts talked with Travis Walton. I was really surprised that they would talk about this on network tv, especially since it was an event that took place over 30 years ago. Normally they just seem to ignore these types of stories, why are they interested now? Some feel we are getting close to a time of disclosure. A time when our own government will tell us some of what may be going on. Really? Why now?
We took a couple of twists in this interview and David talked about an abductee who wanted to know why he was being taken. This abductee was shown that prior to coming here, he made a decision to be allowed to be taken. I thought that was interesting and it supports what I believe, that nothing happens by accident. Finally towards the end we get off the topic a bit and talk about a little visit that David and his wife had to a psychic how he was told that he and his wife shared a previous life during the Civil War, in the South. This led me to speculate if we knew each other and some other humorous possibilities.
This week it's David Twichell from Trenton Michigan. www.ufoimplications.com

3RD ANNIVERSARY OF SHOWS
Wednesday Feb 09, 2011
Wednesday Feb 09, 2011
This month marks the 3rd year I've been doing shows. I've now done almost 135 shows, although some have been repeats. When I first started doing this it was just for fun, as I got to talk to more people I noticed a pattern with some of my guests- their stories were eerily similar. Especially the abductions stories. One of my first interviews was with a couple named Mark and Jenny, really, really down to earth people who I found very humble. Perhaps it is just me but it seems that people with a humble approach in life are the ones who experience the paranormal a bit more than the rest. Are they more open minded? Perhaps, although that isn't always a factor. I think it's their simple take on life that seems to attract the unknown. Have you ever noticed that as well? My theory is that when you remove ego the truth seems to come forward. I've also noticed that some who are in complete turmoil seem to experience these kinds of things, does that have something to do with their life being in turmoil? Again, I don't know. I know some people who I believe it certainly may be the cause of their turmoil and there are others who I believe just lead a chaotic life. Mark and Jenny are not it chaos, that I know of, but they are humble people who I believe that are leading simple lives. They strike me as the type of people who only wish to be themselves, their true humble self. I like that, I am drawn to that. Are you?
This show is a repeat and I edited it down by some 5 minutes. When I first started doing shows I used to do 2 breaks, now I only do one. I find it good to take a break so I can collect my thoughts and make sure my guest is comfortable. Plus back then I was a bit of a clown (I still am) so I did some goofy spots in between my segments, I'm guessing they weren't beneficial to the show, so I've dropped that. I don't horse around as much, I figure if you're listening you want to hear the story and not the clown who's hosting the show. Needless to say, I think I've grown in that respect.
These two people have an amazing story to tell and I find it fits in with my next upcoming show with David Twitchell. Jenny talks about being taken in the middle of the night and it was actually quite a pleasant experience, her story is quite similar to Jim Maroney's experience in 1987. What I've noticed lately in the emails I get is that there are some who are trying to make it seem as though that all of these experiences are bad, my own interaction (along with my guests) tells me otherwise. There seems to be a battle going on within MUFON and there is so much negativity involving the debunkers and those trying to defend themselves. I guess my goal over the next two weeks is to take a look at what I think is really going on in the ufo/anti ufo community, and what may be going on with certain kinds of abductions. This week is a rebroadcast of Mark and Jenny's remarkable experiences with spirits and ufo's and at the time I didn't know what to think. Now it seems to fall in line with what others have told me.

THE VITAMIN PROFESSOR
Thursday Feb 03, 2011
Thursday Feb 03, 2011
Doug Ingoldsby from California joins me this week. Doug's father, James Ingoldsby, got started in the vitamin business way back in the 1930's and was considered by some to the father of the vitamin industry. Doug's company is called Nutritech and makes a product called All One, basically vitamins or supplements.
I have been a big believer in vitamins since I was a child but I really saw the effect they can have on our bodies back in the winter of 1984. I had moved to Vicksburg Mississippi and being a typical young guy I didn't keep up with my supplements like I should have. I had kept getting sore throats and they were just becoming more severe each time around. You start to live in fear, wondering what you're going to do to solve this problem. A simple phone call to my mother set things in motion that changed my life forever. She told me just start taking some vitamin C. I did and the sore throats went away and never came back, never! Now, had I followed conventional medicine, what do you think would have happened? They would have removed my tonsils, or given me an antibiotics shot or who knows. Over the years I have met people who claim they have beaten cancer and other ailments with natural supplements. Yet when I pass the stories on, I usually get a blank stare, why is that? They don't believe because it didn't come from their trusted health care professional.
In this weeks show Doug talks about the advantages of powedered supplements and how vitamins are made and processed. We look at the pros and cons of using pharmecutical prescriptions. Doug answered all my questions and seemed pretty good natured, futhermore some of what he said rang true because I have experienced it first hand. Now what does a show like this have to do with the paranormal or the unknown? Well, I believe there are many who are unaware of what supplements can really do for the body and there are those who might suggest that this being kept from the public. Why? Could it be money? Greed? Now, are all supplement companies looking out for our best interest? I don't think so. The only way you can find out for sure is to try their products. Do I believe Doug or trust what he has to say? I have no reason not to, his company has been around for a long time.
What if you are sick right now and listening to this? What do you have to lose? Mainly this interview is about preventive maintenence. Anyone have a supplement story they would like to share.

RICK SONIER-GHOSTS OF THE PAST
Wednesday Jan 26, 2011
Wednesday Jan 26, 2011
Last week we talked about a couple of strange things from Rick Sonier's past and he decided to come back this week and share more stories. I actually Googled Bloody Run Creek and there was a battle that took place in 1763 involving Chief Pontiac and the Brittish near fort Detroit. I don't think this is the same Bloody Run Creek though, because Rick's experience
was just south of Cadillac Michigan which is quite a ways north of Detroit. In this show we cover the home that Rick used to live in as a young child. They called it the Vanderbilt house and it had it's share of strange events, almost on a regular basis. Now, I don't know about you, but I've had my share of ghostly events but usually they're spaced out over time, I couldn't imagine living in a home where that happened all the time, could you?
So much better than we can imagine. One of the first men I worked for was a man by the name of Herman Berg. I worked in his nursery. He drove and old, really old truck. Something from the 40's I'm guessing. He just plodded along and never stopped working, even when I knew him he was in his 70s and had a hip replacement. There was a time when that was what people did, they didn't have a lot of free time and they just worked until they no longer could. Rick tells a story within a story of how his family was summoned to visit their grandfather on his farm and the family barely had enough money to get there and back. The grandfather was on his last days and some believe there may have been foul play involved. There are a couple of paranormal incidents in this story, one was a prophecy involving his grandfather. The other was a small miracle.
Great beauty. I think we can find it anywhere we look, even in a desert. What is unique about Upper Michigan is the abundance and variety. We have a slice of remoteness but we are not too far removed from civilization. Some of us are spiritual people who are more connected to nature. Rick believes that by moving up here from Detroits inner jungle it saved him and helped him become who he is now. His disc North Country is a reflection of the kind of spirit that exists here today, even though some of it may have disappeared, I still see it in many faces.
Also, as I've stated before, the U.P. is a paranormal wonderland with all of the different varieties of stories that have been reported over the years. Is this a special place? Or does this happen everywhere and I just don't know it? Does it have something to do with our location on the planet? If you are interested in ordering Rick's cd you can send him an email at: sonier@jamadots.com

Musical Artist Richard Sonier and Tales Of The Strange
Wednesday Jan 19, 2011
Wednesday Jan 19, 2011
Not far from here on Lake Superior is a town called Munising Michigan. Again, this is in my own backyard. Recently through a friend I met a man who has his own story to tell. It is really interesting. First, Rick Sonier spent a part of his life performing and traveling. Eventually he settled down in Munising in a house he spotted as a kid. It's really remarkable how Rick was drawn to this house. Why was he drawn to it? Almost as if by destiny he wound up returning to this house many years later. On top of that the house has some history. Some say it is haunted. Some say that locals used to go there to get readings. Rick has heard many stories and even witnessed some strange things.
Rick also talks about the days he went hunting with his dad in lower Michigan and wound up in a spot called Blood Creek Run. That's when something really strange and unexplainable happened. Rick found out that others witnessed something similar. What was it? A strange sound, a really strange sound that lasted some 5 minutes.
Rick has a couple of folk cd's if you're interested. North Country is a hearty cd about northern life in a rugged area. Many of his songs were inspired by living in Upper Michigan. He also has another cd called From The Devil. Let me say this about Rick, he is a deeper positive soul, so his music is not promoting negative values. You can contact Rick at: sonier@jamadots.com

YEAR IN REVIEW
Thursday Jan 13, 2011
Thursday Jan 13, 2011
As I look back on previous shows this year I realize I've gained some perspective on subjects I had never talked about before. If someone had claimed that they once knew a person who was convinced they were the Lindbergh baby, well I would have probably thought they were a bit nutty. Or years ago if someone told me that your spirit can become part of a material object, well that might have made me roll my eyes. Or if someone came to me and said they believed they were once someone else and somehow aliens were involved, well I may haved called Bellevue and reserved them a room. How about this wolflike/manlike creature that others have witnessed and now I find out it may be in my own backyard. Years ago I actually heard a story and dismissed it. Funny how perspective changes when you talk to others, and trust what they have to say. It doesn't happen over night, but it can.
What's happening to all of those birds and fish? There seems to 3 main theories which I will touch on briefly. Is it concerning? Absolutely. What's going on? I don't know, do you?
Your involvement. Is it time to step up to the plate? That is up to you. Do you have a comment or story to share? You don't have to be an author or well known. How do you think those people got started? This show is about sharing stories so that others may learn, and so that they may also not live in fear to speak of their own experiences. Are we coming into a time of change? More awareness? I believe so.
Next week an old friend talks about amazing healing stories. Almost, if not, miraculous. In two weeks a new friends shares some music and stories. May 2011 bring you what you desire the most.
