Greg Bishop welcomes investigative journalist George Knapp and filmmaker Jeremy Kenyon Lockyer Corbell for a discussion of the old research, more recent studies, and present goings-on at Utah’s famed “Skinwalker Ranch.” Actually, relatively little is given out on those latter two investigations, and it helps to have read the 2005 book Hunt for the Skinwalker, […]
In our lead discussion Greg Bishop and Chris O’Brien cover some of Chris’ recent life and project changes. These include the inauguration of a 30-minute podcast within the next 30 days, just part of an ambitious, multi-media assault on the UFO subject; an “archival” visit to ufologist-palaeontologist Ray Stanford; and, briefly, Chris’ leaving the co-host […]

Greg Bishop welcomes prolific (22 books and counting) researcher Preston Dennett, famous for his “UFOs over _____” (insert the name of a state). Dennett’s oeuvre includes a variety of other paranormal subjects, among them levitation, “hairy humanoids,” and out-of-body experiences.

Nick discusses his new book with Greg Bishop. Although everyone traces the history of the Slenderman to a 2009 internet contest to come up with the most frightening character imaginable, Nick found that things resembling the entity had actually been reported before it was even “created.” That led to a discussion of the possibility and […]

The conversation flows naturally for the most part, conveying the sense that underlying mediumship, UFOs, and a night spent in […]
Some widely differing articles on witnesses and what they claim to encounter in UFO cases.

But her forthcoming book, American Cosmic: UFOs, Religion, Technology, to be published […]
Greg Bishop’s interview with The Numinous Den blogger Jeff Ritzmann begins with Jeff’s initial impressions of Tom DeLonge’s To The Stars Academy of Arts and Science initiative and its chances of accomplishing anything of note.
