The following video takes a look at the second largest planet in our solar system and its moons. As humanity gazes Off-world for room to accommodate our rapidly growing numbers, we must investigate all planetary bodies for their possibilities as new homes. It’s exciting to think that in the future of our species, we will […]
On August 29th, 2005, journalist Mike Theiss was in Gulfport, Mississippi when a massive storm surge hit the coastline during Hurricane Katrina. His Emmy award-winning video really gives viewers some insight into how terrifying the weather conditions were at that time. As bad as it was in Gulfport, and it was undoubtedly bad, it was […]
This is a fairly decent cover of the popular song with lyrics relevant to the oppressed people of Palestine. So long as Palestinians can sing of freedom, they will be free. – If you care, please give it a share –
This final episode looks at the more recent history of the nations of the Celtic Isles of western Europe. The narrator begins by describing the Celtic languages as ‘dying’. Not a good start. Although it can be said that those ancient tongues are under immense pressure, they are not dying. Across the Occupied Six Counties […]
Seize The Night by Dean Koontz This is the final Rebel Voice review of a Koontz novel in what has been a binge. Seize The Night is a good one to finish on.

Temujin was a Mongolian chieftain who became one of the greatest and most influential rulers the world has ever known.

If any single activity speaks of the tendency of humans to engage in utter lunacy, it must be surfing giant waves. To ride such a monstrous body of water is the preserve of the incredibly brave, adventurous and foolhardy. Yet, surely that is who we are; that is what we are as a species. If […]
This is a short feature about the greatest of Irish heroes, the Ulsterman known as Cú Chulainn (Hound of Culann). His life was a fascinating sequence of action, adventure and romance little known outside the bounds of the Emerald Isle, and not well enough known within. From the tough little boy, Setanta, to the most […]
This is probably the song most associated with the Vietnam War. It tells of how the sons of the financial elite managed to avoid the draft to that brutal and unnecessary conflict. The question of how such monied individuals remained at home, could again be asked as Donald Trump and the US military-industrial complex prepare […]
This is a compilation of attacks by bears on people. It will be seen that most of these incidents involved bears in captivity. What can people expect when they try to tame what should remain wild? Sometimes, our arrogance as a species knows no bounds. Viewer caution is advised as some of the imagery may […]
