In this third part of my series, “Personal Paranormal Encounters,” I welcome returning guest, author and podcaster Nomar Slevik. The big takeaway here is simply this: Look up and keep looking up! 

 Author Nomar Slevik has been fascinated by all things paranormal since childhood, beginning with a UFO encounter at 4 years old. Because of that experience, his life's passion has been to research, investigate, write, and share UFO and extraterrestrial encounters from everyday people in a way that conveys the human element of profoundly strange encounters.

 Some of his works include the books: “Granite Skies,” “Otherworldly Encounters,” and “UFOs Over Maine.” His podcast, “I Want to Believe,” co-hosted with his best friend Kyle Sawyer, covers a range of paranormal encounters.

 Nomar has seen a number of amazing and mysterious things in his life and he shares some of the most noteworthy stories with me here. You’ll hear his accounts of personal encounters with UFOs, other strange aerial phenomena, cryptids, and more. I mention in this episode that I also interviewed Mike Stevens, the subject of his book "Granite Skies." When we recorded, I didn't know which episodes would post in which order. So, although I speak of it here as a future episode, it's actually already available as Episode 8!

 A note about this series: I’m covering this topic for the same reason I cover any topic, and that is to stimulate deeper thought with these interesting conversations with interesting people. While I have a lifelong interest in the paranormal, I make no claim of truth or fiction, fact or fantasy. I simply take my guests at their word when they say they are reporting their personal experiences truthfully and offer them the same respect as any guest deserves. Honestly, I don’t know what’s up with these phenomena, but I do find them worthy of spending some time investigating before even trying to form an opinion. My opinion doesn’t matter here, and neither does yours. What I’m hoping to accomplish is to inspire a desire in you to seek more information, work your brain, and arrive at your own informed opinions.
