EPISODE #219: THE OLD, WEIRD AMERICA

On this Easter weekend, let’s do our best to bring back the ghosts, the supernatural. Let us recognize and respect the mysterious entities that come not from some imagined, distant star system in the cold lifeless vacuum of space, but from right here where we experience them: backroads, mountains, spooky desert trails at dusk. Jesus loved wilderness and often talked to ghosts, after all. And that’s something people of any philosophy can enjoy.

This is EPISODE #219: THE OLD, WEIRD AMERICA.

EPISODE #181: WOLF WOMEN, WILD WOMEN

The Wolf Woman has front legs that bend up like human elbows, and have terrible taloned fingers at the ends, according to the newspaper article.

Tonight we escape the freezing late-winter West and enjoy some time in the piney forests on the Tennessee River, in the Alabama counties where a strange visitor brought horror & dismay over the long hot summer of 19&69.

EPISODE #131: THE HEAT MONSTER

Well it finally happened, just like every year. All the sudden, it’s hot again. A week ago, it was pleasant out. Now, we cry in the frying pan. Or we will cry, in the weeks to come. October’s somewhere on the horizon. Unless it’s a mirage.

Plus: The Legend of Tahoe Tessie, which you can read about here in Alta Magazine. Time for EPISODE #131: “THE HEAT MONSTER.” With trippy new sounds from RedBlueBlackSilver.
