SEEKER of truth and deflater of cherished myths, our guest in the bunker tonight is Vyzygoth, host of the long-running Internet radio show From the Grassy Knoll. The title of the show changed as we clicked over into 2008, but his purpose is the same, and we’re glad to know that Beyond the Grassy Knoll continues to probe behind the headlines for the truth.
It’s through Vyz and his work that we were made aware of such P.I.D. favorites as Russ Dizdar, Paul & Phillip Collins, and Peter Levenda, and we encourage you to make Beyond the Grassy Knoll a regular listen.
With Sharon out with what appears to be the onset of a cold or the flu, Derek and Vyz spent an hour talking cryptopolitics: Who’s really calling the shots out there, how trustworthy is the media — especially the so-called “patriot” media — and how does one avoid crushing depression when dealing with evidence that the world isn’t what we think it is?

]]>We’d planned a show for this week devoted to the first official skirmishes in the 2008 presidential war, the mysterious spread of norovirus and chikungunya, and President Bush’s upcoming visit to Israel — but it will have to wait until next week.
We’re really sorry, but we’re really tired!
]]>PID Radio will return on December 30th with a 2007 retrospective and a look at the coming year and what it may bring both politically and prophetically.
This weekend, we’re heading to share family time with Sharon’s sisters and mother. May the Lord keep you in His care throughout the Christmas season. — Derek and Sharon Gilbert
]]>No complaints, though. It has to be done and so far the new job is going very well. God really opened a door here; it’s a friendly group and the company takes very good care of its employees.
So while Sharon makes the drive back to her sisters over the weekend (it’s wonderful to be able to make the visit home a day trip instead of taking an entire day to just to get there!), Derek will be counting steel and testing out his new steel-toed high-top sneakers (seriously).
Never fear, we’ll be back next Sunday with a new show. We can’t help but notice that the young man who killed eight and then himself in Omaha was a ward of the state. If you’re not familiar with The Franklin Cover-Up by John DeCamp, you can read some excerpts here.
Omaha is Ground Zero for a lot of high weirdness over the last 30 or so years. We’ll talk about this next week.

The Road Not Taken
By Robert Frost
TWO roads diverged in a yellow wood,
And sorry I could not travel both
And be one traveler, long I stood
And looked down one as far as I could
To where it bent in the undergrowth;
Then took the other, as just as fair,
And having perhaps the better claim,
Because it was grassy and wanted wear;
Though as for that the passing there
Had worn them really about the same,
And both that morning equally lay
In leaves no step had trodden black.
Oh, I kept the first for another day!
Yet knowing how way leads on to way,
I doubted if I should ever come back.
I shall be telling this with a sigh
Somewhere ages and ages hence:
Two roads diverged in a wood, and I—
I took the one less traveled by,
And that has made all the difference.

WELL, we’ve reached the end of a life chapter. Health issues with a couple members of our family require that Sharon and I pull up stakes and relocate. Within the next couple of weeks, weâ€ll be — to quote the old song — “back home again in Indianaâ€.
Three of Sharonâ€s sisters and their mother live in southern Indiana. Iâ€ve got cousins in Terre Haute and Indianapolis, and my dadâ€s side of the family arrived on the banks of the Wabash around 1820. So thereâ€s a long history on both sides of the family in Indiana. Once we settle, we look forward to visiting living relatives and ancestors whoâ€ve passed on.
It is a sad parting. Iâ€d tried for nearly two years to get back into radio after a more than a decade of selling steel pipe, and the management at The Eagle 93.9 gave me that chance in spite of my long layoff and the fact that nearly all of my prior twelve years†radio experience was in music formats. I will always be grateful for the opportunity and proud of what our team has accomplished over the last 16 months.
Iâ€ve made good friends here, both at The Eagle 93.9 and in the community. I will miss you. But family responsibilities must come first and so we have to go.
Donâ€t know where weâ€ll be working or living yet. Weâ€re stepping out on faith here. Iâ€ll let you know when I do.
(PID Radio will continue of course, although it might be off and on until we get resettled — with a consistent internet connection. Please, keep us in your prayers regarding that!)
]]>Hey All! Derek and Sharon are heading to Indiana on Saturday morning, so they may not have access to the internet this weekend. Consequently, there may not be a fresh PID up and ready for Sunday night.
Please, keep them in your prayers as they travel. They will explain further on Wednesday of next week if not before. Blessings from PID!
]]>PID Radio is Back, and the first question we’re asking is: What’s the Deal with Myanmar?
September 29, 2007
YOU KNOW US — we love to ask the questions everyone else avoids. Maybe it’s because we’ve spent the summer in hybernation, maybe it’s because we don’t get enough Krispy Kremes in a town without a ‘hot donuts’ sign, or maybe it’s simply because we have learned to look past the revolving walnut shells. Cue: the Bunker Music….PID Radio is back on the air, and this week we’ll be discussing Myanmar and more. New shows posted each Sunday night.
Your homework:
• Oil and Gas Discovered in Myanmar
• Foreign Firms Eye Myanmar Oil Fields
• North American union plan headed to Congress in fall
• Foreign Invasion of the Biochip Market
