Hey hey! I'm back, and with me is my good buddy, and very first guest on Hi, Strangeness, Greg Bishop! Greg is a long time researcher/deep thinker in the UFO game. He's been somewhat of a UFO mentor to me, and his books are essential reading, IMO. On this episode, we get into the limitations of language, art as a means of expressing the UFO experience, and the aimless road of UFO disclosure. This is a fun one! Thanks for everyone's patience as I continue to adjust to a busier work schedule. D...

Oooooohh buddies, I have a fascinating episode for you! John Carlson is my guest this week, and it is a doozy. I don't want to say too much in this description, I'll just say this: If you dig portals and otherworldly creatures coming out of said portals, then this episode is for you! Below, I've linked John's six-part (so good!) blog on the events, and I've also attached the original Binnall of America episode (with Tim's permission, of course) with Adam Davies and John. I think you're really...

Well hello, good buddies! This week, we have everyone's favorite bigfoot collector, Michael McMillian back on the show! Michael and I ping pong through some well known, and obscure Kansas cryptid cases.

We're talking headless phantoms, giants bears, bigfoot, giant worms, wolf girls and so much more. If you haven't yet (what are you waiting for!?),...

Howdy there friends! This week, I'm psyched to bring on the great Timothy Renner!

On this meeting, we discuss his new book THE KEYSTONE HAGSTONE, and folks, this book is a banger! Holy smokes I just could not have loved it anymore. If faeries, gnomes, witches (and so much more) are your thing (it's definitely mine!) then this is the episode for ...
