Most people visit the ancient monuments of Wiltshire to wonder at the past, but the Avebury landscape is far from a stagnant museum—it is a living conversation. In this episode, the Wyrdos trace that conversation from the Neolithic core of Silbury Hill to a modern architectural marvel.

We begin at the base of Silbury Hill, investigating the "Hollow Hill" and the secrets revealed by its recent collapse. From there, we head into the dark of West Kennet Longbarrow with a drum and a bull-roarer to test the "God Frequency"—a 110 Hz resonance that reportedly switches off the logical brain—and the "Fear Frequency" that makes 5,000-year-old walls appear to ripple like water.

Finally, we sit down with Tim Daw, the farmer and mastermind behind the Long Barrow at All Cannings. As the creator of the first structure of its kind to be built in Britain for millennia, Tim explains the mud-soaked reality of hand-carving sarsen stones and the deep-seated human need to stay close to our ancestors in the 21st century.

In this episode:

• The Hollow Hill: The true story of the Silbury Hill collapse and the secrets found in its gravel core.
• The 110 Hz Experiment: Craig and Andy take to the dark to see if the architecture of the dead can truly "hack" the human brain.
• The Modern Architect: Tim Daw on the solstice alignments and modern planning permissions required for an ancient tradition.
• Merlin’s “Little Brother”: Why the Marlborough Mound is finally being restored to its Neolithic glory after 4,500 years.

It turns out the landscape isn’t just talking to us—it’s waiting for us to join in.

In this edition of AfterWyrd, Andy and Craig investigate a massive array of "Wyrd" news—from the highest reaches of the British Monarchy to the sugary depths of a log burner. We dive into the literal "rabbit hole" of Craig’s folklore library and ask: if the Duke of Edinburgh saw a Sasquatch, who are we to argue?

The Wyrd News:

Prince Philip’s Balmoral Sighting: Brian Blessed reveals that the Duke of Edinburgh reportedly spotted a Yeti in the Scottish hills. We discuss the Royal couple’s implicit belief in Sasquatch and the time the Queen requested a private meeting with a kidnapped trapper, Albert Ostman.

Council UFOs & Alf Burtoo: A council meeting from February 2026 revisits the 1983 Aldershot UFO encounter. Was Alf Burtoo truly "too old and infirm" for alien abduction, or was he just having a very deep dream by the canal?

The Nessie Camera: An underwater camera lost in 1970 is recovered from the depths of Loch Ness. We discuss the repair job and the World War II letters claiming a sea serpent was once caught in anti-submarine nets.

The Missing General: Why has ex-General McCasland disappeared right as UFO disclosure heats up? We look at the "Non-Terrestrial Officers" hack and the secrets held in Albuquerque.

Cannock Chase Chaos: Bigfoot is back and he’s brought friends. We discuss the record spike in sightings, the "Black-Eyed Children," and the terrifying arrival of a seven-foot WWII "Pigman."

Rabbit War-Machine: A viral video of a rabbit piloting a weaponised robot dog. Is it cute, or the start of the lagomorph uprising?

Doughnut Power: How one man slashed his energy bills by burning 133 mini doughnuts in his log burner. It’s science, but your chimney might never forgive you.

From the Library:

Traditions of Lancashire (1800s): Craig shares his £7.80 find and the love of the 98-year-old scent of old-fashioned paper.

The Dictionary of Fairies: Andy shows off his latest acquisition from a Bath bookshop—a tome of banshees, boggarts, and things that go bump in the night.

What if the future didn't just want to talk—it wanted to negotiate? In 1985, the Doddleston "Vertical Plane" didn't just stay open; it became a temporal battlefield. As the BBC Micro flickers back to life, Ken and Debbie find themselves caught between a 16th-century High Sheriff who wants to weaponise the "leems" and a cold, clinical group of "Time Monsters" known as 2109.

In this concluding part of our deep dive into the Doddleston messages, we follow the final months of communication as the cottage transforms into a literal puzzle box.

From the bathroom where computers move themselves to the terrifying moment a scientist is asked to gamble his soul for a mathematical proof, we conclude our investigation into the most baffling technical haunting in history. Who was really behind the screen, and why did the investigators vanish?

In this episode, we discuss:

• The Identity of T omas Harden: How a charcoal riddle and a local library led Ken and Peter to the true name of the "Old Father" hiding in the Tudor chimney.
• The 2109 Ultimatum: The "Men in Black" style choice—erasure of history to save a life, or keeping the evidence and watching a friend face the consequences.
• The Psykabillies: The mysterious SPR investigators who conducted "blind tests" and then vanished—leaving no record they ever existed.
• The Scale and the Pebbles: 2109’s chilling theory of time travel—why moving a body to the past requires an equal mass to be removed from the other side.
• The "Saint Paul" Incident: How a single translation error nearly turned the most documented time-slip in history into a "hoax."
• The Dark Connection: We explore the uncanny similarities between the Doddleston messages and the Netflix series Dark—is there a bootstrap paradox in the Cheshire countryside?
• The "One" Entity: Who is the green-glowing messenger who visited Tomas in 1545? Is it a future version of Ken, or a digital "ascended" soul?

As the "leems" finally fade in March 1986, we’re left with a mystery that spans centuries. Whether it’s a shared hallucination, a secret government experiment, or a genuine "wrong number through the fourth dimension," the message on the pillar remains: "The eyes are open yet nothing do you see."
