SPEAKER 04 :
Welcome to another program of Retirement Unpacked. I want to thank you for tuning in. And everyone who’s listening, I want to wish you a very, very Merry Christmas. And if you are not quite on track or if you have some concerns, if you’re saving enough money for retirement, give my office a call and come in. We can have a conversation. 303-744-1128. This afternoon we’re in for a very special treat because Stephanie Periucci, who is one of the authors of the book Sound the Alarm, which has to do with the concern we all have for what took place in Maui in August of 2023. It was a really ugly event. Stephanie, are you here with us?
SPEAKER 03 :
You bet. I sure am. Thank you so much for having me, Al.
SPEAKER 04 :
Well, I’m blessed to have you on here because this is a monumental task, letting everyone know what took place in August of 2023. But first, I want to ask you, what caused you to be concerned to write the book in the first place? I know you’re one of three authors. I read about also Tracy Derwin and Shane Buell.
SPEAKER 03 :
Yeah, that’s a great question, Al. Thank you. I actually had somebody, a friend of mine who barely escaped the fire, and she was caught in what we refer to as the human rotisserie on Front Street. What they were doing is they were not letting anybody escape. north people were getting routed back into the fire where they died and i said you know i’ve been working already for three years at that time with the medical freedom community and a lot of what we’re doing to try to sound the alarm which is the title of my book is getting censored by big tech so i knew we needed to get citizen journalists and people with drones and the community involved to find out what was happening because it wasn’t going to get written online.
SPEAKER 04 :
No, certainly not. With all the pushback, it’s kind of like the pushback we had during COVID. If anyone tried to point out that maybe the masks weren’t helping or maybe the vaccine isn’t necessarily the best idea, it was very difficult to be heard. What would you say was your biggest hurdle along with the hurdles that Tracy and also Shane encountered when you tried to gather information? Did that become extremely difficult?
SPEAKER 03 :
Yeah, it did become difficult because a lot of what was being posted and shared by citizens and survivors was getting censored. In addition to that, we did receive some threats from people in the community who had for all intents and purposes been gaslighted into believing it was a natural fire that was caused by either the electric company because of the power lines, or there were actually people who told me, looked me in the eye when I sat with them in Lahaina outside of the burn zone and told me that the plastic straw that I was drinking out of for my latte was what caused the fire. So there was a lot of psychological manipulation of the people to believe that climate change and their carbon footprint destroyed their community.
SPEAKER 04 :
Boy, that’s quite a stretch. Did they say the same things about all the fires they’ve had in California?
SPEAKER 03 :
You know, it’s surprising how many people are awake to what’s going on. We go back to 1947. That’s the first time that we took a hurricane, seeded the clouds essentially with dry ice, and the hurricane changed direction. It was heading north, and it went due west after we seeded those clouds. That was back in 1947. So we’ve had the power and the patents and the technology to manipulate weather for a very long time. And because of Maui, Paradise, California, Hurricane Helene, Milton, Otis and John, people are now waking up and it’s becoming very common knowledge that we have weapons that can manipulate weather to essentially destroy communities so that states and counties can take over that land.
SPEAKER 04 :
Well, that is really spooky, but in reading your book and doing a little research that I did, the mechanisms, scientific mechanisms that we have to seed clouds and to cause changes in the weather. Most people don’t really think about that. They just think about the weatherman saying there’s a 40% chance of this or a 60% chance of that. And if they’re way off base, then that’s the only job you can have and be right a modest percentage of the time and still keep your job.
SPEAKER 03 :
You know, I saw today a content creator A former actor and comedian named Russell Brand posted a tweet that said, if you want to know what’s happening in the world, all you have to do is listen to mainstream media and then believe that the opposite must be true.
SPEAKER 04 :
Oh, he’s the British guy that used to be married to Katy Perry. Yeah, exactly. And he is an outspoken Brit. I’m wondering if he gets censored also when he tries to say something that’s contrary to some of the powers that be.
SPEAKER 03 :
Yeah, I mean, when he and other authors of mine were censored, a lot of them went over to Rumble as opposed to YouTube, where they could create content a little more freely. A lot of my authors, I worked with Dr. Vladimir Zelenko, Peter McCullough, Dr. Harvey Risch, Senator Frank Lasse, who’s still actually canceled everywhere except for X. Most of my highest profile authors understand that if they do not get physical books into people’s hands, thanks to people like you highlighting our work, it’s not going to get the circulation of some of the, you know, cycle babble and celebrity gossip. It’s just an uphill battle to get the truth out there.
SPEAKER 04 :
Well, I can certainly see where it’s difficult. Now, you and Tracy and Shane, how were you able to get all those great photographs of some of the devastation that actually took place on Maui? Because from what I heard, they weren’t allowing journalists in. And when people tried to investigate, there were police came and kind of shooed them off, if my information is correct.
SPEAKER 03 :
Yeah, I had access to the burn with a friend of mine who lost a home, a business, and his best friend. So I was able to add some of my images to the book. In addition to that, we give credit to Eric West, who’s on YouTube at Hawaii Real Estate. We also give credit, a lot of credit, to the Maui community investigation. This is an organization, grassroots effort, based out of Maui, where they’re looking to get a fair, unbiased investigation of the fire. Now, unfortunately, this is going to shock your audiences. The same team that developed the ridiculous pancake theory during 9-11 is an organization called Underwriter Laboratories. They have coincidentally been assigned to do the investigation of the Lahaina fires. And that’s where has emerged a scapegoat being Hawaiian Electric. So they were… They were found guilty for power being in the lines which could have fueled the fire. There were no power lines active from what we saw through video and picture evidence. the power lines were not active. However, we knew back in my first book about the fire, which was called Burn Back Better, we knew that Hawaiian Electric was going to be the scapegoat because of all the predictive programming and so on that goes on with the news media.
SPEAKER 04 :
Well, sure, and there had to be something to start the fire, some culprit, so to speak. Now, the parts that I felt were incredibly sad for the folks who lived there is the fact that the alarms didn’t go off, and from everything I’ve read, those were the most significant alarm system on planet Earth, and it was never set off, and also there was no water.
SPEAKER 03 :
And one of the things that we would really like is dispatch report. If we can get dispatch reports, which is high on the list of things we desire for another book and an investigation, that’s where we can find out who made the call to route people back into the fire. Who made the call to… Who made the call to not sound the alarms? Once we can reverse engineer and find out who made those decisions, we’ll be closer to finding out who’s really guilty for this.
SPEAKER 04 :
Yeah, that has to be an enormous burden on whoever did that, and I can’t imagine what they were thinking or who gave the order to the person to give the order, because if it’s like a lot of events, it’s going to be one person who said they did this because… somebody else told me to kind of thing and then a regular long linkage of responsibility and then it becomes extremely difficult to find out who the real culprit is.
SPEAKER 03 :
Yeah, exactly. I think what’s really tragic is this is a situation where people realize the value of not complying because the firefighters, the policemen, other people involved were members of the community. They were watching their own homes burn in real time because the fire was really not enormous. It was um 2200 structures 2100 acres but it was pretty well concentrated in the town of lahaina which was a residential town 86 percent of what was incinerated was residential homes and it was a working class town. So what people are coming to terms with on the island is the fact that they need to keep their conviction with intelligence and intuition about them and not comply with things that make no sense, such as not sounding an alarm or routing people back into a fire. There were, as you saw, the first couple hundred pages of my new book, Sound the Alarm, we went into the details of all the things that went wrong. And in my first book, I said, was this criminal negligence or was this a crime?
SPEAKER 04 :
Well, there’s certainly – I know you’re a Christian and I’m a Christian, but I also believe that the word coincidence is not in the Bible. So all of these negative things that took place, I don’t think that’s any kind of coincidence at all. I think that there was – there was planning behind this and unfortunately those who suffered at the result of the planning are people who are now they’re still living in tents and if i understood that right some of the survivors are living in tents while the fema workers are staying at the four seasons did you find that to be true also
SPEAKER 03 :
Well, the survivors were not just in hotels temporarily. That has run out. They’re no longer getting any assistance on housing. A lot of them, because insurance adjusters were not allowed into the burn, they were still paying mortgages on homes that had been incinerated. And they weren’t getting payouts from insurance companies. So they are paying a mortgage on a house that they will never rebuild. In addition to that, the average two bedroom apartment on Maui is $7,000 a month. We’re talking about people who work in construction and tourism. It’s an unbelievable, it’s an impossible expectation. So the really tragic thing is most people who lost their homes have had to leave the island. There’s only so many beaches you can camp and you can’t keep a family with four children on a beach in a tent. It’s not safe. So a lot of people have left the island, which has destroyed the fabric of that community.
SPEAKER 04 :
And if I understand it right, when I was in high school, I read the book Hawaii and I talked about all the people who settled there. And correct me if I’m wrong, but those in Lahaina, that was the major capital of the Hawaiian Islands before it became a possession of the United States. And we’ll talk more about that right after the break.

SPEAKER 04 :
Welcome back. If you just tuned in, we’re talking with Stephanie Periucci, who is one of the authors of Sound the Alarm. It’s about the investigation that was done following the fires on Maui, which took place in August 2023. And one of the things we were talking about right before the break is that the history of Maui It used to be like the capital of the Hawaiian Islands before they were a possession of the United States. And so this is sort of like a genocide for the Hawaiian people. Is that an accurate statement there, Stephanie? Stephanie? Stephanie?
SPEAKER 03 :
Sorry, I muted myself during the commercial. Forgive me. So, yeah, that’s extremely accurate. This is, by any stretch of the imagination… an inconceivably sacred place to the Hawaiians. And a lot of the homes there, you walk inside and they’re like history museums. Things have been passed down, not for one or two generations, but hundreds of years. What was lost is really a lot of the culture and the fabric, not just of Maui, but all the Hawaiian islands. And that’s one of the reasons that people were never going to sell their homes. This is a big part of the story. They were so special, just inconceivably valuable to the culture that they weren’t going to give them up to build some Disney World or Las Vegas. And so that’s where we had another big red flag. The government, the state of Hawaii, just three weeks before the fire declared, they signed an emergency proclamation that actually gave the, it opened the door to what we call like eminent domain, where if there was a disaster, In this bill, and remember, like you said, the Bible never uses the word coincidence. However, this bill, three weeks before the fire, said, if there’s a disaster, we can build some sustainable communities in place of anything that might be destroyed in that disaster. So it looked like they were setting up for potentially taking over that land that the locals, clearly with it being very sacred, would never have given up.
SPEAKER 04 :
Boy, that is spooky to say the least. So it sounds like there was an effort to morph Lahaina, the community where the native Hawaiians lived for many of them for generations and generations, morph it into one of these 15-minute cities or something in between Las Vegas and San Francisco or something like that.
SPEAKER 03 :
Well, we’ve been joking around. People want us to distill the book into one sentence. And I’m going, well, you have Burn Back Better, which is 300 pages. You have Sound the Alarm, which is 350 pages. So if you want me to distill 650 pages and just as many sources into one sentence, the only thing I can come up with is this, Las Vegas and Lahaina. The police chief in Maui actually comes from Las Vegas. And here’s what’s really suspicious. She was not qualified for his job. And in fact, He falsified information on his application in order to take the job. And here’s where it gets weirder. He’s the same guy who was assigned during the Mandalay Bay shooting in Las Vegas. So this guy’s got experience with disasters, that’s for sure. I think Mandalay Bay was the largest mass shooting on American soil in a very long time. Yeah, I think forever. Yeah, forever. And the Hawaii police chief also comes from Las Vegas. So there you’ve got two more highly suspicious smoking guns. Why are they bringing these guys from Vegas to work as police chiefs on the Hawaiian islands? And coincidentally, they drafted a plan for a sustainable community on Kauai. And almost precisely on top of that plan, there was a fire that destroyed land this year in 2024. So we’re seeing extremely suspicious activities around places that have been on proposals for sustainable development, what you might call smart city, or a lot of this boils down to U.N., or United Nations infiltration of communities because the SDG goals require the elimination of private property.
SPEAKER 04 :
Yeah, the globalists are making headway and we don’t even realize it. And they use language that sounds very good because how could anyone be against something that is sustainable? But the word sustainable is sort of like a euphemism for we’re going to take away what’s been there for years and morph it into something the way we want it to be, which is going to reduce your freedoms.
SPEAKER 03 :
Yeah, that’s right. It’s terrifying. It’s not just reducing freedoms like, oh, we’re just going to get, you know, a dollar or a minimum basic income. Universal basic income is a big, hot buzzword. Universal basic income requires us to abide by the rules of the state in order to get our income. So everyone’s like, oh, that’d be great. We get universal basic income. We don’t have to work. We’re just going to have all our food and our lodging taken care of us. We can just go ski all day. You know, I live in Aspen and I was actually skiing right before this show. So, um, But the downside of getting dependent on the state is they control everything we do. So currently on Maui, just above Lahaina, they’re building these little bitty tiny homes for people who got kicked out of the hotels. One of my investigators was there last night, took pictures. Every single inch of that place is surveilled by these cameras. They look like they’re on utility boxes. There’s cameras everywhere.
SPEAKER 04 :
Like a main street in China or something.
SPEAKER 03 :
Exactly. That’s what terrifies me about if you get something for free from the government, it’s not free.
SPEAKER 04 :
You’re going to control your life. You’re exactly right. Now, isn’t there a community in Saudi Arabia or Dubai or something like that that’s about a half a mile wide and 12 miles long that’s sort of like a poster child for what they want all these communities to look like?
SPEAKER 03 :
Yeah, there’s a few of the world. There have been a destination, so to spea called neon. Here’s what’ neon. They’re going to pu in Saudi Arabia on the site of the mountain of Moses or Mount Sinai. There’s absolutely no conviction for these sacred holy sites. We are absolutely losing our culture. our sacred lands, and our history to plow them over and create these prison camps for whoever’s going to be left after the globalists take away meat and private property and modern luxuries and whatever else they want to do.
SPEAKER 04 :
Yeah, private property and all the other evils that are going on. Well, Stephanie, we barely scratched the surface of what took place on Maui, but God bless you for what you’re doing and uncovering what really took place there and who is really benefiting from the suffering of these Hawaiian folks. God bless everyone for listening. Have a very Merry Christmas.
