Hi, Strangeness

HI there, friends! This week, David Metcalfe joins me for a good, old fashioned, deep deep deep dive in the UFO game. We get into the socio-cultural implications, how the phenomenon evolves, the mainstream normalization, narratives, trends, tricksterism, and much much more. David, to me, is one of the great modern minds when it comes to the topics we cover on this show. The only reason I waited to have him on, is that I wanted to be ready for him. I think I was, I hope. David is real gem - such an honor to have him on for this lengthy discussion. I hope you enjoy it as much as i did!

Love, Steve

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. Being a deep fan of cinema history, I have to say that this one hit the spot perfectly for me. Enjoy!

Love, Steve

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!

Love, Steve
