Spirit Talk Show - Bedtime Stories for Grown Ups

In this moving episode of Spirit Talk Show – Bedtime Stories for Grown Ups, Doyle sits down with writer, paraglider pilot, and rare cancer survivor Jonathan Hutton, author of Unflappable: Soaring Beyond Diagnosis.
Jonathan’s journey begins with an unassuming runny nose that turned out to be a rare, incurable head and neck cancer. What followed was a 16-year odyssey through surgeries, treatments, loss, and rediscovery. Yet, amid the pain and rebuilding, Jonathan found new meaning—in the air. As a paraglider, he learned to trust the invisible, to find lift where others saw only gravity, and to write about life not as triumph, but as motion.
Doyle and Jonathan talk candidly about illness, identity, faith, and the courage to keep rising when control is gone. Together, they explore how writing can become an act of flight and how healing isn’t about being cured—it’s about learning to live inside a body that has been remade.

“Life isn’t about escaping gravity—it’s about learning how to dance with it.”

The war escalates beyond Earth as Dantro takes the fight into space itself. With Martian forces pressing their advantage, the Planet Man and his allies engage in a high-stakes confrontation among the stars. As ships collide and strategies are tested, courage and ingenuity become Earth’s last defense. Victory is uncertain, danger is everywhere, and the future of two worlds hangs in the balance in this pulse-pounding chapter of The Planet Man.

Author, adventurer, and lifelong dreamer Alison Gieschen—known as the nautical novelist—shares her remarkable story of courage, creativity, and reinvention.
After three decades running an equestrian program, Alison and her husband sold everything to pursue a dream many only imagine: circumnavigating the globe on a 43-foot sailboat. Their voyage has taken them through 46 countries, across the Panama Canal, and into the heart of what it means to live freely and fully.
From terrifying storms and miraculous rescues to the quiet awe of Polynesian sunsets and island friendships, Alison transforms every experience into art. Her works—Blue Ridge, Riding the Waves of Reality, The Legend of Altor, Julie’s Vaulting Dream, The Seven, and her forthcoming Sienna: A Mermaid’s Tale—weave myth, truth, and the spirit of adventure.

The threat becomes reality. As Mars launches its long-anticipated assault, Earth faces destruction from the skies and beyond. With defenses failing and panic spreading, Dantro races against time to counter Marston’s plan and protect the planet he has sworn to defend. Loyalties are tested, sacrifices loom, and the true cost of interplanetary war comes into focus as The Planet Man pushes the story into full-scale conflict.

We launch the new year with a guest whose life reads like a classified dossier—and whose message may define the decade ahead.
Michael D. Selig, former Marine Corps aviator turned bestselling author of Hush, steps into the Spirit Talk Show studio to reveal what he believes is humanity’s most important, most suppressed truth: we are not alone, we have never been alone, and the world is racing toward an event that will change everything.

Selig’s novel may be fiction, but the research behind it—military recoveries, multidimensional beings, covert programs, and a rising planetary shift—is very real to him. In this gripping conversation he explains why 2027 looms large, why love might be humanity’s ultimate superpower, and why our understanding of ghosts, angels, and the paranormal may all point to the same hidden reality.
This is not just an interview.
This is a warning, an invitation, and a spark for the year ahead.
