Today I’m thrilled to have back on the show for a second time: MK ULTRA and Project Stargate survivor and whistleblower, targeted individual, filmmaker, podcaster, musician, athlete and former Virginia Tech all-American running back, entrepreneur, mental health advocate, and hometown hero from the Blue Ridge Mountains of VA: Tommy Edwards aka: Touchdown Tommy!
A little bit about Tommy if you are new here, if you missed his debut on ‘The Imagination’, or if you need a quick recap:
Born in February 1974 in Radford, Virginia - a historic town cradled by one of the world's oldest rivers - Tommy entered a world shadowed by grief yet illuminated by legacy. His father, Ken Edwards, a Virginia Tech Hall of Famer who wore jersey #33 and was drafted by the Buffalo Bills, carried the weight of family tragedies that shaped a dynasty of determination. Tommy, inheriting that same number and spirit, would become a beacon for thousands.
As a boy, Tommy faced challenges - dyslexia, feeling like an outsider, family struggles - but he discovered fire on the field. At Radford High School, he exploded as a consensus All-American running back and first-team All-State linebacker. In his junior and senior years alone, he rushed for nearly 4,000 yards and scored an astonishing 57 touchdowns - a record that still echoes through the valleys. Recruited by powerhouses, he chose Virginia Tech in 1992, following his father's footsteps.
In 1993, as a redshirt freshman, Touchdown Tommy burst onto the national stage. He scored 10 touchdowns (including four in a single game against Pittsburgh), led the nation in scoring for six weeks, and helped propel the Hokies to a top-15 finish and a bowl victory. He and his father became the first father-son duo in NCAA history to score rushing touchdowns in bowl games - a legacy of grit and glory. Headlines screamed his name; fans chanted "Touchdown Tommy"; the program ascended from mediocrity to dominance, setting the foundation for future championships.
Tommy's story deepened into a profound journey of awakening. Repressed memories surfaced of childhood encounters with Project Stargate, MK ULTRA, and lifelong targeting as a gifted "star child." He endured gangstalking, electronic harassment, false hospitalizations, and a terrifying SWAT standoff - yet he emerged stronger, speaking truth against corruption, exploitation in sports, and hidden programs. Diagnosed with advanced CTE symptoms (brain scans showing severe damage that should have left him institutionalized), he battles daily with severe symptomology, but his spirit remains unshakeable.
