Art Grindstone is the hard-nosed storyteller behind Unexplained.co, a veteran investigator whose life’s work sits at the crossroads of the paranormal, fringe science, and the shadows most people try not to look into. With decades spent chasing impossible stories — black-budget psychic programs, vanished Cold War experiments, desert rituals that sparked UFO waves, and the strange phenomena buried in America’s forgotten backroads — Art brings a rare combination of skepticism, awe, and journalistic precision. He’s not here to debunk. He’s not here to blindly believe. He follows the evidence wherever it leads — even when it leads someplace deeply uncomfortable. Known for his immersive, cinematic style and his ability to turn obscure research into gripping narrative, Art has built a devoted following across podcasts, long-form features, documentaries, and serialized investigations. His interviews are direct. His analysis is unflinching. His voice has become a staple in the modern paranormal renaissance — the guy people turn to when a story is too strange, too complex, or too dangerous for anyone else to touch. Off-mic, Art works with a distributed network of researchers, archivists, and field operatives who help surface the stories mainstream media ignores. On-mic, he transforms their findings into meticulous, high-impact reporting that refuses to insult the intelligence of true believers. His philosophy is simple: Take the phenomenon seriously. Treat the audience with respect. Tell the story as if the world depends on it — because sometimes it does. When Art Grindstone digs into a case, he isn’t just chasing a mystery. He’s tracing the fault lines of reality itself.

The Curtain Rises: Global Powers on a Knife’s Edge

Welcome, friends, to another episode of ‘What Could Possibly Go Wrong In the World Today!’ Starring a cast of familiar characters—Iran, China, and Russia. Our screenplay begins with Iran loading missiles, ready to send fireworks across the Middle East, because, well, when hasn’t a ballistic display been the solution to all diplomatic woes? According to the Iranian missile program report, the region is being treated to the show’s full bachata dance: that’s short, medium, and long-range missiles all joining the conductor’s baton in Tehran’s orchestra pit.

The intrigue spirals as China, the dragon of the East, shows its claw by subtly yet significantly tightening its grip around Taiwan, suspiciously forming a circle straight out of a Predator movie scene. While on the other side, Russia, the bear with a penchant for pyrotechnics, refines its new invasion plays. Talk about tuning up the chaos levels.

Showdown at the Geopolitical Corral

As geopolitical tensions tighten like a billionaire’s tax audit, we witness the simmering theater of international affairs parallel to an Agatha Christie mystery—if Agatha wrote about weapons of mass destruction, that is. China sees an opportunity to consolidate power while Taiwan nervously eyes the horizon, making subtle signals of preparation for the worst.

Next, we spotlight Russia, casually planning its new military campaign while leisurely sipping a vodka tonic under the midnight sun, according to allegations from sources as diverse as the global news machine. The choreography of military convoys reminiscent of chess pieces maneuvered across the Eurasian landscape—a spotlight shift well-placed, according to our ominous orchestra leader.

Gold’s Glittering Downfall: An Economic Tragedy

All this deception and desire is set to the twinkling backdrop of gold prices taking a nosedive, much to the horror of hoarders everywhere. Precious metals get jittery when geopolitical tensions rise, so expect waves in the economic pool. The once safe haven shudders under the weight of 21st-century conflicts and financial conspiracy. Not to indulge in hyperbole, but it is a drama fit for the stage of .
