The Paracast — The Gold Standard of Paranormal Radio episodes

June 22, 2014 June 22, 2014 — Kevin D. Randle
Gene and Chris welcome veteran UFO researcher and author Kevin D. Randle, to discuss his latest book, "The Government UFO Files: The Conspiracy of Cover-Up." Randle will explore the ints and outs of alleged government secrecy, whether it's due, in part, to "government incompetence, and, potentially, malfeasance." What about Area 51? What, if anything, is the government hiding? Can we do something about it, or has that train left the station? Randle also answers to listener questions from our forums.

June 15, 2014 June 15, 2014 — James Renner
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."

Gene and Chris present Ted Roe, Executive Director of the National Aviation Reporting Center on Anomalous Phenomena. NARCAP was founded in 1999 by Chief Scientist Dr. Richard Haines and Roe. Their information page says, that, "Through careful planning and execution, NARCAP has grown to be a respected research organization dedicated to studying UAP and aviation safety for the public's benefit." Listeners will notice that they refer to such objects as UAP, short for Unidentified Aerial Phenomena. The term UFO is not used in their ongoing research, and we'll focus on the best cases they've investigated and, of course, listener questions.
