Gene and Chris present freelance journalist, novelist and blogger James Renner, author of "It Came from Ohio." The book contains "true tales of the weird, wild, and unexplained," including the famous 1966 case involving Ohio deputy sheriff Dale F. Spaur, who, along with a fellow officer, Wilbur Neff, chased a UFO across state lines. The UFO was dismissed as conventional by the Air Force, but Spaur's life was essentially ruined in the aftermath of the sighting. The chase formed the basis of one of the early scenes in Stephen Spielberg's "Close Encounters of the Third Kind." Renner will also discuss reports of strange creatures, including Bigfoot and werewolves. According to his bio, "In his spare time, he hunts serial killers."
