Before he became one of the most notorious medical serial killers in U.S. history, Dr. Michael Swango was a gifted but deeply disturbed medical student obsessed with death. In this episode of Pumpkin Hill Radio, we trace his path from a morbid childhood to a deadly career in hospitals across the globe. Through early warning signs, failed institutional oversight, and calculated deception, Swango exploited the medical system to leave a trail of suspicious deaths. This investigative deep dive uncovers the systemic flaws and psychological profile behind a doctor-turned-murderer whose crimes still haunt the healthcare profession.

Is airbending real? What if breath is more than biology. What if it's the oldest magic of all? Together, we explore the Element of Air in spiritual, magical, and paranormal traditions. From yogic breathwork to levitating saints, from shamans who summoned storms to ancient deities who rode the wind, this episode traces air as messenger, medium, and force. We uncover real-world "airbending" practices, haunted wind anomalies, cloudbusting, air-aligned djinn, and the psychopomp role of wind in life and death. The air around you is alive—and it listens.

We interrupt this program to bring you Chaos Control – your source for real-world strangeness and reckless speculation, straight from the Pumpkin Hill Radio Network.

In Episode 11, we dive into:

• A man who confesses to crucifying a pastor in Arizona—and his plan to kill 14 religious figures nationwide.
• The mysterious disappearance of Lesner Noe Velasquez Cardenas on Mount Shasta—no clues, no contact, just gone.
• SETI researchers decode playful bubble rings from whales—could this be an Earth-based model for alien contact?
• And scientists in Antarctica detect radio signals at "impossible angles"—are we witnessing physics-breaking evidence of new particles?

Plus, a gruesome case out of Australia: a Beauty and the Geek contestant accused of murder and dismemberment, with her partner’s head still missing.

Long before monasteries, churches, or organized faith, one man disappeared into the Egyptian desert—and never returned. This is the story of Paul of Thebes: the first Christian hermit, the man who lived nearly a century in silence, and whose death was marked by ravens and lions. But Paul’s tale doesn’t end with Christian sainthood—it bleeds into a stranger tradition: desert shamanism, visionary mysticism, and the forgotten origins of spiritual madness.

In this episode, we explore Paul’s legendary life, his meeting with Anthony the Great, and the rise of the Desert Fathers—men and women who rejected civilization, battled demons, spoke in riddles, and vanished into wilderness to hear the voice of God… or something else.

Was it sanctity—or a controlled descent into divine madness?

Featuring real desert sayings, ancient visions, and parallels to global shamanic traditions, this episode walks the line between faith and the paranormal.

In the shadowed valleys of the Kiamichi Mountains, a rural family found themselves under siege—not by humans, but by something ancient, hairy, and unrelenting. This is the full, unflinching story of the Siege of Honobia: a nightmarish confrontation with multiple Bigfoot-like entities that harassed a terrified family for weeks.

We explore the geography, Native American lore, eyewitness testimonies, physical evidence, and hidden government hesitations surrounding this chilling event. Was it a case of undiscovered primates? A haunting from the forest spirits of Choctaw legend? Or something stranger—something that watches from the trees and waits for the right moment to return?
