Musings on Mysteries & the Mythical Matrix

M Quad (M^4)
Musings on Mysteries and the Mythical Matrix (“M Quad” or "M^4" for short) is a podcast that explores various mysteries and evaluates comparative mythology from an objective perspective. There are dozens of questions that are left unanswered in the standard model: questions that this podcast will charge headfirst into. We don’t claim to have all (or most) of the answers, but its our scientific duty to discuss and theorize on the unknown of past myths and the mysteries of this blue ball we call home.
Episode 023 - Abnormal, or Paranormal?
Join us on a series of spooky (and funny) TRUE stories for your entertainment and quantum speculation. This episode details our first (and second) hand bizarre and paranormal encounters. It's a return to the more classic fun M-Quad podcasting style after a series of educational guests!Sources:Mid Credits Music: At the Foot of the Sphinx by Twin Musicom is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 license. https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ Artist: http://www.twinmusicom.org/

Episode 021 - Conspiracy Corner: UFOs (with Phil DeMattis)
Join us as we dive down the rabbit hole of UFOs/UAPs with the UFO Expert from Bill Rudge Ministries: Phil DeMattis! He brings a fresh take on UFOs with a direct Christian perspective and sheds light on how these beings are interdimensional, and truly not of this world. In fact, we explore in this episode how the UFO/UAP phenomena has been occurring for hundreds, if not thousands of years! This episode is for our resident conspiracy theories, as we tangent off into frequent conspiracy derivatives.Disclaimer: As always, Musings on Mysteries and the Mythical Matrix avoids politics, and while we entertain discussion on conspiracy theories about the government as part of free speech, we do not take any explicit stance on the issue.Sources:Mid Credits Music: At the Foot of the Sphinx by Twin Musicom is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 license. https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ Artist: http://www.twinmusicom.org/
