Dead Hand Radio

My guest for this episode is Preston Dennet

UFO Researcher, investigator and author of 27 books.

Initially a skeptic Preston had no interest in UFOs, until 1986 when he learned about an incident over Alaska involving an airline pilot who witnessed a large unidentified craft and went public with his experience. Later while discussing the incident with friends and family Preston made a discovery he didn’t expect. People he knew and trusted were having similar experiences.

Since then, Preston has been looking into the topic of UFOs, and has spoken to hundreds of witnesses and experiencers.

In this episode Preston gives a detailed account of his interest in UFOs and how he’s evolved as a researcher, investigator and author, over the years of exploring this topic.

He goes into detail on how he’s managed to connect with and interview so many eyewitnesses, contactees and abductees.

Then we discuss the 1953 Kingman Arizona UFO crash and subsequent cover up by the US government. Potential causes of the crash, and what was recovered from the site.

We also talk about Sky Hub and the mobile tracking platform that Jeremy McGowan is building. And I pose some questions to Preston on Jeremy’s behalf that result in Preston dropping a nuclear bomb on me about another crash which I’ve never even heard about and will ultimately lead to a follow up with Preston on a future episode of this podcast.

And now dear listener, I urge you to suspend your disbelief, set aside your skepticism and prepare for this UFO Edition of Dead Hand Radio

Thanks for listening

My guest for this SciFi Edition of Dead Hand Radio is Randy from Here on Mars. Randy is a musician and a gamer who is best known for his Apocalyptic brand of electronic rock music.

In this episode, Randy and I talk about his beginnings as a musician, his influences and inspirations, and how science fiction has always been a part of his growth and evolution as a musician.

We also talk about Randy's other interest, Warhammer 40,000. He breaks down the game play, how the entire franchise has transformed throughout the years since he first discovered it, and the important role it has played in his life.

We talk about other topics as well, including some of our favorite movies, and how the SciFi and Horror genres are so easily blended for a completely wild ride in movies like Alien, and Event Horizon.

Then Randy shares an experience he had, during a mission trip he was on in Africa, that left his blood cold and has stuck with him ever since.

So strap in dear listener and prepare for a ride on the SciFi Rocket Train on this edition of Dead Hand Radio.

My guest for this SciFi Edition of Dead Hand Radio is Podcaster / Author / TV Personality and Veteran UFO Journalist Jason McClellan.

Jason and I talk about his work as a long time UFO researcher, journalist and author. We get into some of the interesting ways in which science fiction imitates reality and the other way around. We talk about how the cold war influences the genre of science fiction and we get into the World of the Weird and go a little ways down the UFO rabbit hole. But we do pull back and keep things in the realm of science fiction for this episode but we both agree that the topic of UFOs and the mysterious and strange deserve further discussions and I look forward to having Jason back on.
