HI friends! This week, my guest is the legendary fringe culture author, Robert Guffey! Robert has been writing about conspiracy culture for years now, and has contributed a lot wildly fascinating stories, books, magazine articles to this field of interest. On this episode, we spend most of the time discussing his new book Hollywood Haunts the World, which focuses on encoded cinema and cultural taboos. I don't want to spoil too much here, but we get into intel agencies involvement in screenwriting, things you can say in fiction, but not in real life, and a whole lot more.

Hey hey hey! This week my guest is the brilliant, Smiles Lewis! Smiles is someone I've wanted to have on the show from the get go. He's one of my favorite thinkers in the UFO game, and also, was an OG in the 90s zine scene. We cover a lot of ground - we reference some of Smiles' thoughts on what UFOs represent, and how they've been manipulated since the beginning. We also cover some of the happenings in the analogue zine scene of the 90's. What a time! I hope you all enjoy it!

Hey buddies! This week, my guest is Nebraska based bigfoot researcher, Richard Soule. Richard has documented, and researched the bigfoot situation in Nebraska more than anyone else that I'm aware of, and he's got the miles on his boots to prove it. Richard not only documents, but has interacted with these creatures for a good bit now, and he's learned a lot from his boots on the ground research. Almost no one thinks of Nebraska when it comes to bigfoot, but there are a good amount of cases in history, and currently going on today. This is a fun one! Richard also has an incredible website, Nox Gigas, where he keeps all his wonderful documentation and research. It's great stuff. Enjoy!

Howdy partners! This week, coming back for second appearance, is the brilliant Stephanie Quick! Stephanie gave a wonderful and illuminating talk on her Youtube channel recently, which was an overview of sex magic and erotic mysticism, and I thought it was so fascinating that I wanted to do an entire show on the subject. So...I was lucky enough to get Stephanie back on to do an overview of some of the personalities involved. I found this to be a wonderful history lesson for myself, and gave me a way clearer picture of the history, and it's importance. I hope you all enjoy it!

Yooooooo friends! This week, back for a fourth time, is my good buddy Rob Kristoffersen! On this outing, Rob tells us about his lifetime of experiences with strange and unusual. Some of these stories I've heard, but many I have not. Rob has recently written about his experiences on his fantastic Substack "Foology" https://foolology.substack.com/. I'm very grateful to Rob for telling us about his experiences. I highly recommend giving his Substack a read. It's high quality stuff!

Hi there, friends! This week, back on the show, is the brilliant, Joseph Matheny! Joseph and I have a granular look into UFO, "the phenomena", starving for original stories, being the class clown, AI, technology being used for magic and tons more. Joseph is a very inspiring person to me, and his approach, and experiments into these topics fascinates me beyond words. If you haven't heard the first episode I did with him, I highly recommend giving it a listen. October 8th, 2024. Enjoy!

Happy Halloween, good buddies! This week, my guest is the brilliant Aaron Gulyas. Aaron is a professor, writer and culture hound for the strange and unusual. He's the host of the fabulous podcast The Saucer LIfe, which I highly recommend. Aaron and I get into his life long interest in UFOs, UFO culture and some of the detritus that goes along with it. We touch upon the influence of the contactees, Bill Cooper, and many of the other eccentric players in UFO history. I had the best time shooting the breeze with this kindred spirit, and I hope you enjoy it too!

Hey hey hey! This week, my guest is Jeff Knox. Jeff is a wealth of knowledge on UFO history (my favorite kind of history) and has blown me away with his daily Today in UFO History drops on social media. Jeff  also has a wildly level headed approach to how he sees the UFO enigma. Skeptical, open-minded, and focused on what we can study: The history. I feel that what he does is one of the most important contributions to the history of UFOs. Go Jeff go! Enjoy, friends.
