Hey friends! This week my guest is the brilliant Kevin Cann! I first learned about Kevin from Jeffrey Kripal's book, How To Think Impossibly. I then bumped into Kevin's incredible Facebook group, Platonic Surrealism, which immediately wow'd me. Kevin is a next level thinker when it comes to the topics we discuss right here on this show, and I think he's one of the few people I know of who's really trying (and succeeding) in taking UFOs and the nature of reality further down the proverbial fie...

Josh and I have a deep discussion about his latest book, without spoiling anything (I promise!). We get into the concept of fictional incursions, the non-physicality of the UFO phenomenon, and why we might just need better stories. I LOVE LOVE LOVE th...

Hey Friends - This week, my guest is comedian/actor, Morgan Nalley! Morgan is a hilarious, and awesome human being. She's had an interest in the strange and unusual since she was a kid, and that interest doesn't seem to have wanned one iota (did I just type the word iota? I did!) We get into her childhood interest, comedy, her recent trip to Rome, and some compelling paranormal experiences she's had in her adult years. Morgan is such a gem - I hope you all enjoy! Love, Steve For more Morgan N...

They are putting on, what sounds to me like, a festival to NOT be missed this summer in gorgeous Chicago.

Hi buddies - this week on Hi, Strangeness, we have on actor, writer, director, and most importantly, my friend, Jake Johnson! Jake and I reminisce about our early days in LA, acting, and doing comedy. However, we quickly delve deep into "what the hell does this all mean!?" territory, and bounce around from life philosophies, giving eulogies, creativity, life after death, and some bits in-between. Jake is one of my best buddies in the world, so I hope you enjoy this little peak into our long f...

Hey there, friends! This week on Hi, Strangeness, I have on filmmaker and all around great guy, Dean Alioto. We discuss his new film, The Alien Perspective, which flips the often seen point of view from the human side. Dean takes a different approach here, and delves into some different ideas of what could be going on with the UFO phenomenon. We also discuss and pay homage to his genre breaking found footage film, The McPherson Tapes. A classic, in my opinion. It was a blast chatting with Dea...
