In the 1940s, Frank Edwards was a respected broadcaster hired by some of the nation's largest stations and broadcasters, but then something went wrong. An obsession got in the way of Edward's career and derailed his change to be national newscaster. That obsession was UFOs.
A decade later he was back at a small radio station, doing a unique radio show for a small but growing audience. It wasn't just about UFOs. Edwards became a follower of many strange theories, a researcher into the history of odd phenomenon, and a popularizer of weird events around the world. Over the course of three decades he wrote a number of books chronicling hundreds of unique occurrences, and gained a following on both radio and TV.
Though Edwards is little remembered today, it seems only appropriate that this podcast -- which is titled after one of his books -- should start with an homage to Edwards as well as an example of exactly the kind of story that I intend to tell in each episode.
