Buckle up, bucko! Today, the table is taking a deep dive into the chilling mysteries of Northern California's Mount Shasta.

From telepathic interdimensional Bigfoots guarding the mountain to cloaked UFOs hiding in lenticular clouds, this region is a massive hotspot for the unexplained. We also touch on the underground city of Telos, CIA remote viewing (Project Stargate), DMT crystal beings, and the mind-bending theory that we might all just be waking up in a coma.
