• The Paracast — the Gold Standard of Paranormal Radio — is also broadcast weekly on IRN Internet Radio Network

    This Week's Episode — September 22: Gene and cohost Tim Swartz welcome back the one and only Tillie Treadwell, a modern day author and paranormal scholar. In her own words, she is a conscious experiencer of phenomena, having had what she fully believes to be personal, true encounters with The Mandela Effect, wild nightcrawlers, the Glimmer Man, UFOs, nonhuman people such as the fae and others, and odd glitches in time. In past years, Tillie co-headed a paranormal investigation and was a key component in a local, official exorcism team in blessing with leadership from the Catholic church. During this episode there will be an extensive discussion of the best-selling book from former Pentagon official Luis Elizondo, "Imminent: Inside the Pentagon's Hunt for UFOs." Does it provide any new information on finding a resolution to the mystery? Tillie will also explain why she prefers what she prefers "nonhumans" to humans. Except for your friendly Paracast hosts we hope. Tillie is a contributor, along with Sean Casteel, Gene and Tim, to their latest book "Weird Time — Exploring the Mysteries of Time and Space." She also provides regular, exclusive articles for the International Dogman Project and The Quad Coalition of Sciences, and has reached an agreement with fellow writer and speaker Joshua Cutchin to produce a new book together in the near future. Her YouTube channel is: The Weird Walk Home

    Coming September 29: Gene and cohost Tim Swartz present James Reich, a novelist, essayist, and journalist, and ecopsychologist. He is the author of The Moth for the Star (7.13 Books, September 2023), The Song My Enemies Sing, Soft Invasions, Mistah Kurtz! A Prelude to Heart of Darkness (Anti-Oedipus Press), I, Judas, and Bombshell (Counterpoint/Soft Skull). On the agenda is his psychoanalytic monograph, Wilhelm Reich Versus The Flying Saucers. And, no, they are not related. Also on the agenda: How James first discovered the flying saucer mystery and the controversial work of Wilhelm Reich. There is also a discussion of how the classic 1951 sci-fi film, The Day the Earth Stood Still, and its allusions to a Christ-like figure in the person of its protagonist, Klaatu, which greatly influenced Reich. James and his work have been published and commissioned by Literary Hub, SPIN Magazine, Brooklyn Rail, CrimeReads, Salon, Huffington Post, National Book Review, Vol.1 Brooklyn, The Rumpus, International Times, Sensitive Skin Magazine, Entropy, Fiction Advocate, The Weeklings, The Nervous Breakdown, Heavy Feather Review, Poet Republik, Largehearted Boy, Sleeping Fish / Calamari Press, Shelf Awareness, Full Stop, and others. Most recently, James has co-written a screenplay for a film in pre-production, and is working on freelance writing, editing, and book design projects. His second science fiction novel, Skinship, was due to be published in 2024 by Anti-Oedipus Press. His website: www.jamesreichbooks.com

    After The Paracast: Available exclusively to Paracast+

    After The Paracast: Available exclusively to Paracast+ subscribers on September 29: Novelist, essayist, journalist and ecopsychologist James Reich returns to talk to Gene and cohost Tim Swartz about his monograph, Wilhelm Reich Versus The Flying Saucers. ( They are not related.) The focus of this episode includes Reich’s focus on the flying saucer mystery, along with the possibility that they are, at least in some cases, hostile towards Earth. Reich’s back story is covered, including his relationship to members of his family, and his incarceration for violating an FDA injunction against his Orgone energy accumulator. James was born in Stroud, Gloucestershire in the West of England, and has been a resident of Santa Fe, New Mexico, since 2009. He was greatly influenced by early exposure to the poetry of Dylan Thomas, and by a small book on dadaism, and later by Andy Warhol, the Beats, science fiction, psychoanalysis, punk rock, and the films of Ken Russell and Nic Roeg. Norman Mailer, Sylvia Plath, J.G. Ballard, Anne Sexton, Paul Bowles, D.H. Lawrence, and Lars von Trier are also vital constellations in his work. Most recently, James has co-written a screenplay for a film in pre-production, and is working on freelance writing, editing, and book design projects. His second science fiction novel, Skinship, wasis due to be published in 2024 by Anti-Oedipus Press. His website: www.jamesreichbooks.com

General Freewheeling Chit-Chat

There are many things that fall within the field of the paranormal, and this is your place to discuss the issues that interest you. What's more, it doesn't have to be related to the paranormal. Most any subject is fair game.

Why is it that teenagers no longer seem to get involved in looking for UFOs, as we did when we were young? Your ideas are welcomed, and we'd like to also hear from those under 21, if they're listening.
