In this interview with filmmaker, Talking Weird podcast host, and flying saucer scholar Dean Bertram, we take a long overdue deep dive into the Shaver Mystery. Topics include: the foundational nature of the Palmer-Shaver relationship in the UFO mythos; Bertram’s documentary short on the subject, and his forthcoming Palmer/Shaver feature The Man Who Invented Flying Saucers; Shaver’s art, philosophy, and tragic later life; the thread of spiritualism and Theosophy throughout flying saucer culture; the subterranean world theme and its pre- and post-Shaver forms; the Maury Island incident; and tons more. A thoughtful and detailed conversation on one of this podcast’s favorite figures.

Dean Bertram on The Shaver Mystery, UFOs and the Occult

In this long conversation with Willow Trueman of the Nonsense Bazaar podcast, we discuss the shifting nature of a paranormally- tinged life. The paths of synchronicity; talismanic use of embarrassment and narrative; hypnotic and sleep-walking experiences; the language of Flying Saucer literature; past lives and dream lives; Peter Pan; and tons more.

Willow Trueman on Channeling Strangeness, Synchronicity, Hypnosis and Much More..

A brief missive from the upturned tortoise shell wherein a soup of syncs bubbles over. Audiobook vortices, the on-high writer writing the writer, and more reckless cosmic speculation.
